》 BOARDWALK APARTMENTS FIRE
Jury selection complete for trial
BY ERICK R. SCHMIDT
Fourteen jurors were selected as the triple murder and manslaughter trial of Jason Allen Rose began Monday.
Douglas County assistant district attorney Amy McGowan and defense attorney Ron Evans began questioning a pool of 71 potential jurors Monday morning. The group was eventually narrowed down to the six men and six women selected for the jury, plus two men selected as
alternates.
Rose is accused of starting an October 2005 fire at the Boardwalk Apartments that killed three residents and injured several others. University of Kansas student Nicole Bingham was among the three fatalities. Rose's initial trial began in February, but was declared a mistrial after five days because the prosecution moved to admit a late witness.
Monday's jury selection lasted just less than seven hours, ending at 3:15 p.m. Among those dismissed from
the initial pool was a woman who said she would not be able to handle seeing the "grushes" images that Evans said would be shown. A Lawrence man who had helped install air conditioning in the building more than a decade ago was also dismissed. Evans argued that the man's knowledge of the building would hamper his ability to hear the case.
going to hear from 40 to 50 witnesses, along with a two-and-a-half day witness video. I wish I could say for sure, but the truth is, I can't."
Evans told the jury he couldn't promise a specific length for the trial.
"The chance of it going past two weeks, I can't say," Evans said. "You're
The jury will be sworn in and presented with opening statements at 9 a.m. Tuesday.

Annual award honors teaching Department wins $10,000
BY KYLE CARTER
The Center for Teaching Excellence awarded the Department of Spanish and Portuguese with the 2007 Departmental Award for Exceptional Teaching and Learning. The award recognizes one exceptional department each year with a $10,000 award.
The winner is selected based on the culture of learning within the department, evidence of student learning and constant
evaluation of progress. Professor and chair of undergraduate studies Isidro Rivera said the department focused on teaching students to think critically rather than simply learning to memorize.

Photographs, prints and paintings by two students are on display this month at Solidarity! Revolutionary Center and Radical Library.
The artwork, by Jessica Gish, Topea senior, and Ailecia Ruscin., Auburn, Ala., graduate student, is part of the Queer and Transgender Art Show at the center, located at 1109 Massachusetts St. The show is free and will run until May 11.
Gish said that people at Solidarity! called her because she was an artist who was active in the gay community. Gish said her sexual orientation

"Most often I feel as an artist first rather than a gay artist or queer artist." Gish said. "I draw a lot of inspirations from the people and the world around me."
Gish is working toward a degree in painting at the University, and she displayed prints along with paintings at the art show. She enjoys utilizing the two mediums for different reasons.

NEW YORK — You've heard of e-mail spam — now a New York City councilman wants to do something about menu spam, the unwanted menus and circulars that have a way of appearing on city doorsteps and under doors.
Simcha Felder has introduced legislation that would make it illegal to distribute menus,circulars and filers to homes and apartment buildings that display a sign indicating promotional materials are unwanted.
"This drives people out of their minds," said Felder, a Democrat who represents sections of Brooklyn.
Alligator causes traffic jam on highway, stumps police
SAN ANTONIO — All it takes is one illegally parked troublemaker to tie up freeway traffic — especially if it's an B-foot alligator sprawled across the pavement.
"I don't remember any of this in the academy," police Officer Albert Silva said. "As far as I know, there's no procedure on this other than: 'Don't get bit.'"
Police threw orange traffic cones at the gator, but it just snapped at the cones and flung them away.
The gator even assaulted a police car, biting its bumper.
Officers finally used a lasso and metal poles to coax the alligator off the road.

CAMPUS
Graduate school, research branch to merge
Kevin Boatright, communications director for the research office, said the new department is recognition of the connection between graduate studies and research at the University.
The University of Kansas will merge its graduate school and research branch this summer to create a new department, announced Provost Richard Lariviere last week. The move will shift both the administrative structure and focus of the two institutions.
Jim Roberts, current vice provost for research, will head the new department starting July 1.
"If you increase research, you're
going to enhance graduate studies," Boatright said. "A lot of the research of KU is done by graduate students."
The move to reorganize the departments began when Diana Carlin, graduate school dean, announced her resignation in March, Boatright said.
Jackie Hosey, University spokeswoman, said the Office of International Programs, currently associated with the graduate school, will not be part of the new department, and that its placement in the University's structure was yet to be determined.
The University is currently looking to hire an associate vice provost and dean of graduate studies to serve under Roberts.

Kathy Cagg, center left, accompanied by her pastor, Tim Pusey, left, and unidentified family members, addresses the media in Kansas City, Mo., Monday. Cagg is a sibling of suspected gunman David W.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. — The chaos began with police finding a woman dead and her car missing.
It ended when officers fatally shot the man driving the car — but only after he fired on a police officer and later people at a shopping center, killing two of them.
Police spokesman Tony Sanders said the authorities were reviewing security footage and interviewing hundreds of witnesses to the shooting Sunday outside a Target store inside Ward Parkway Center, trying to make sense of the four deaths.
Target employee Cassie Bradshaw, 19, was in a break room with two other people when they first heard shots. Then, her coworkers saw a man in his 50s with a rifle "shooting everywhere," she said.
"It sounded like maybe fire-crackers at first but then they got louder and louder and louder, and it sounded like someone shooting a mun." she said.

A woman who identified herself as the slain woman's stepdaughter said the shooter was a longtime neighbor who had worked as a security guard at the Target store. Police could not immediately confirm those details.
Police found the woman's body Sunday afternoon after they went to a home because relatives had not seen her for days. Her car was spotted later in the day at a gas station by an officer, who pulled the driver over and was shot in the
arm, police said.
The officer, whose wound was not life-threatening, returned fire and shattered the window of the gunman's car.

The gunman was not immediately named, but Patricia Reed's stepdaughter, Pam Reed, described him as her stepmother's neighbor.
Police had cordoned off a home near where the elder Reed lived, and a phone listing for the gunman matched that address.
A bomb squad was called to the home early Monday after a police officer looked into a window of the home and saw a suspicious device, Sanders said.
The Target store was closed Monday. Company representatives did not immediately return a message seeking comment left at Target headquarters in Minneapolis.
The mall, one of the city's busiest shopping centers, was shut down and officers went through each store to see if anyone else might have been involved, Sanders said.

Residents resist toxic waste plants Nerve agent waste causes outcry
BY MONICA RHOR ASSOCIATED PRESS
PORT ARTHUR, Texas — At the Carver Terrace housing projects, only a chain-link fence and a cluster of no-treespassing signs separate brightly painted jungle gyms from the Motiva oil refinery.
On warm days, the playground is filled with children playing in the shadow of the towers and pipes that spew smoke and spread a sulfurous, rotten-egg smell over this mostly poor, mostly black city of 60,000 along the Louisiana state line.
For decades, Port Arthur residents have lived with the refineries and chemical plants that ring their neighborhoods and loom over their backyards. And they have tolerated the cancer, asthma, and liver and kidney disease
Kelley has been holding rallies and meetings to protest the incineration, drawing about 100 people to one recent meeting. And one mother started a petition drive to halt the project. But so far, there is little reason to believe they will accomplish anything.
Jefferson County, where Port Arthur is located, is home to one of the country's biggest chemicalindustrial complexes and has been ranked in the top 10 percent of America's dirtiest counties by the Environmental Defense Fund.
"It's disgusting to know people are turning their backs on little children and old people and letting them stew in toxic waste."
Port Arthur is encircled by major

but some blame on the producer.
But when a company won a $49 million contract to incinerate chemical waste from the destruction of the deadly nerve agent VX, Hilton Kelley and others said enough was enough.
HILTON KELLEY Community activist
"It's disgusting to know that all across America, when you mention Port Arthur, Texas, that it's considered the toxic dump site of North America. It is disgusting to know people are turning their backs on little children and old people and letting them stew in toxic waste," said Kelley, 46, a community activist. "It's not right, and I am not going to stand by and let anyone come and dump toxic waste in my community."
refineries and chemical plants run by such companies as Motiva, Chevron Phillips, Valero and BASF, and their properties abut the backyards and playgrounds of the city's poor and historically black west end.
The battle began in April when Veolia Environmental Services of Lombard, Ill., announced a contract with the Army to incinerate 1.8 million gallons of VX hydrolysate over the next three years. New Jersey and Ohio fought off plans to incinerate the waste there.
VX hydrolysate is caustic waste water created when VX is destroyed by mixing it with sodium hydroxide and water. The Army is destroying its entire supply of the Cold War-era nerve agent, which can kill with a single drop, at a chemical depot in Indiana. The waste water will be shipped in 4,000-gallon containers across eight states and nearly 1,000 miles to the Veolia plant.

Police tactics ruled legal
WASHINGTON — Police may use tactics that put fleeing suspects at risk of death to end high-speed car chases, the Supreme Court said Monday in ruling against a Georgia teenager who was paralyzed after
his car was run off the road.
In a case that turned in part on a video of the chase in suburban Atlanta, the court said it is reasonable for law enforcement officers to try to stop a fleeing motorist to prevent harm
to bystanders or other drivers.
"A police officer's attempt to terminate a dangerous high-speed car chase ... does not violate the Fourth Amendment."

The court, in a nod to modern technology, for the first time
posted the dramatic video on its Web site.
Many large police forces have strict rules for when officers can begin high-speed pursuit, limiting chases to instances where there has been a felony crime committed, a misdemeanor crime involving a weapon, or suspected drunken drivers who are an obvious road hazard.
Harris was wanted only for speeding.
Joshua Dressler, an Ohio State University law professor and expert on the Fourth Amendment, said he did not think that police would relax those policies.
"The clear trend of police departments in major urban areas has been to limit police chases in general," Dressler said. "There have been so many injuries and deaths as a result of police chases and such great risk of harm to innocent bystanders."
The case is Scott v. Harris, 05-

Boeing's 787 drives revenue increase
BY DAVE CARPENTER ASSOCIATED PRESS
CHICAGO — Boeing Co. Chief Executive Jim McNerney said Monday the aerospace company "turned the corner" in 2006 and is on pace to overtake rival Airbus as the world's largest commercial airplane maker within a year.
McNerney spoke at the company's annual shareholders meeting at a time when Boeing is enjoying almost unparalleled success in its commercial aircraft and defense businesses and distancing itself from the scandals of recent years.
After posting a 2006 profit of $2.2 billion amid a 15 percent jump in revenue to $61 billion, the Chicago-
based company last week beat Wall Street's projections with a 27 percent rise in first-quarter earnings and 8 percent higher sales.
Much of its momentum is because of a flood of orders for the more fuel-efficient new 787, which is scheduled for its first test flight on July 8 — the calendar equivalent of 7-8-7.
The annual meeting was noteworthy for being largely devoid of the troublesome issues that have dogged the company in recent years, such as ethics scandals and CBO turnover. Boeing helped hasten the end of the ethics clamor by agreeing to pay the government a record $615 million following a three-year investigation into its defense contracting practices.
McNerney told shareholders that last year was "a year in which we turned the corner and positioned ourselves for a very exciting future." He said 2007 is "off to a good clean start."
Boeing surpassed Airbus in plane orders in 2006, but the European company delivered more aircraft and held its position as the world's top airplane manufacturer.
Asked in a media session afterward when Boeing would reclaim the No.1 spot, McNerney said: "The math would say end of this year, beginning of next."
But he declined an opportunity to take a potshot at the rival airplane maker, who has struggled with lengthy delays.

Crash cripples Bay Area

public transportation Monday, one day after a fiery tanker collapsed a heavily trafficked section of freeway.
Westbound traffic into the city largely flowed as usual Monday morning, except for drivers slowing on interchange lanes headed to the Bay Bridge to look at the damage.
OAKLAND, Calif. - The threat of a nightmarish morning commute led many Bay Area residents to use
But officials warned the afternoon drive would bring bigger headaches as traffic leaving the city is diverted away from the collapsed eastbound segment.
The elevated section of highway that carries motorists from the San Francisco-Oakland Bay Bridge to a number of freeways was destroyed early Sunday when the heat of a burning gasoline tanker truck weakened part of one overpass, crumpling it onto another.

Many commuters avoided peak hour congestion by getting a head start or leaving later than usual, said Bay Area Rapid Transit spokesman Jim Allison.
"I'm mad," said Crystal
McSwain, who switched from a bus to a more expensive BART train to avoid the roads. "My life is upside down, and I don't know how long it's going to take."
Parking lots at outlying rail stations filled up earlier than usual for the morning commute and some trains appeared, more crowded than usual, but BART officials said overall ridership did not appear greater than normal.
Authorities predicted that overall the crash would cause the worst disruption for commuters since the 1989 Loma Prieta earthquake damaged the Bay Bridge itself. The sight of the soaring freeway twisted into a fractured mass of steel and concrete was reminiscent of that quake's damage.
Transportation officials said repairs could take months.
"The most wristome thing is the afternoon commute come out
To encourage motorists to switch to public transit, Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger authorized free passage Monday on ferries, buses and the BART rail system. Extra trains were added and bus and ferry operators also expanded service.
of San Francisco toward the maze because the traffic from the Bay Bridge fans out from across three freeways," said Jeff Weiss, a spokesman for the California Department of Transportation. "Taking away two-thirds of the capacity is really going to cause a bottleneck."
Nearly 75,000 vehicles used the damaged portion of the road every day. But because the accident occurred where three highways converge, authorities said it could cause problems for hundreds of thousands of commuters. State transportation officials said 280,000 commuters take the Bay Bridge into San Francisco each day.

KATRINA CORRUPTION

Work continues around the pumps and locks of the 17th Street canal at Lake Pontchartrain in New Orleans Monday.
Pumps scandal arises
Army Corps of Engineers accused of placing unfair bid
BY CAIN BURDEAU ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW ORLEANS — When the Army Corps of Engineers solicited bids for, drainage pumps for New Orleans, it copied the specifications — typos and all — from the catalog of the manufacturer that ultimately won the $32 million contract, a review of documents by The Associated Press found.
The pumps, supplied by Moving Water Industries Corp. of Deerfield Beach, Fla, and installed at canals before the start of the 2006 hurricane season, proved to be defective, as
the AP reported in March. The matter is under investigation by the Government Accountability Office, the investigative arm of Congress.
In a letter dated April 13, U.S. Sen. David Vitter, (R-La.), called on the
specifications. The phrase should say "abrasion resistant steel." An incorrect reference to the type of steel that would be required apparently was also lifted.
Eugene Pawlik, a Corps spokesman in Washington, said the agency is working on a response to Vitter's letter.
MW1 declined to discuss how it won the contract. GAO would not talk about its probe.
The Corps' January 2006 call for bids for 34 pumps used the wording on how the pumps should be built and tested, with minor changes, found in MWI catalogs.
Richard White, a federal contracting expert, said it is "not unheard for a spec to be copied, in particular in cases of emergency purchases."
The specifications were so similar that an erroneous phrase in MW1 catalogs — "the discharge tube and head assembly shall be abrasive resistance steel" — also appears in the Corps
Corps to look into how the politically connected company got the post-Hurricane Katrina contract. MWI employed former Florida Gov, Jeb Bush, President Bush's brother, to market its pumps during the 1980s, and top MWI officials have been major contributors to the Republican Party.
"Are you folks aware that the specifications that you folks put out was a copy of the specifications in the MWI catalog?"
While it may not be a violation of federal regulations to adopt a company's technical specifications, it is frowned on, especially for large jobs like the MWI contract, because it could give the impression the job was rigged for the benefit of a certain company, contractors familiar with Corps practices say.
"It's not a good practice, but it's

not anything egregious, especially if the Corps allowed other companies to negotiate to change it," White said.
After Katrina swamped about 80 percent of the city. Congress appropriated $5.7 billion to
rebuild New Orleans' flood protection systems. Vitter and U.S. Sen. Mary Landrieu, (D-La.), have excoriated the Corps over its workmanship since Katrina.
In his letter to the commander of the Corps, Vitter said the bid solicitation for the pumps "includes specifications identical to those written and marketed by Moving Water Industries." In addition, "the testing specifications are also identical to the testing specifications developed and authored by MWL"
A May 2006 memo by a Corps inspector working on the project, provided to the AP earlier this year, warned that the pumps were faulty and would not work if needed to remove water during a hurricane. GAO opened its investigation after the memo surfaced.
The Corps and MWI insist the pumps would have worked, but last year's mild hurricane season never put them to the test. The pumps have been overhauled and are being reinstalled.
The Corps withheld about 20 percent of MWI's contract price
— including an incentive of about $5 million to deliver them by June 1, 2006 — until the flaws have been resolved. But the Corps also spent $4.5 million for six additional MWI pumps for use in troubleshooting the defective ones.
The Corps contract officer overseeing the January 2006 bid, Cindy Nicholas, was told about the copied specifications during a conference call with FPI Inc., a Florida company that also bid on the project, shortly after MWI was awarded the contract. A recording of the briefing was provided to the AP by FPI.
"Are you folks aware that the specifications that you folks put out was a copy of the specifications in the MWI catalog?" asked Bob Purcell, who was an FPI salesman at the time the bids were taken.
"No, I'm not aware of that," Nicholas replied.
Corps official Dan Bradley said during the briefing that consulting engineers had a hand in drawing up the specifications.
Purcell then complained: "We were forced to meet someone else's specifications in entirety." He said the consultants did not cooperate with FPI, and he charged that MWI was given "a head's up" about the job. That, he said, was evident by MWIs order for pump engines before the contract was even put out to bid.
"I don't know anything about that, sir," Nicholas responded. She said that if MWI ordered the engines ahead of time, "they took a big risk."
"Obviously it was a risk that paid off, let's put it that way. They must have had some assurance!" Purcell exclaimed.
"Not from me," Nicholas said.
MWI would not comment on the alleged order for pump engines before the award of the contract.
Purcell, a former MWI employee, is a plaintiff in a federal whistleblower lawsuit accusing MWI of fraudulently helping Nigeria obtain $74 million in taxpayer-backed loans for overpriced and unnecessary pumping equipment. The U.S. Justice Department has joined the suit as a plaintiff.

KANSAS CITY, Kan. - The evil Dr. Diabetes leaps from a hospital window, crashing through the glass, determined to infect anyone in his path with the chronic, debilitating disease from which he takes his name.
Diabetes was largely an unknown to the boy before a family trip to St. Louis in 2003 when Kamaal was taken to the emergency room after complaining of constant thirst and feeling ill. Kamaal's great-grandmother on his mother's side had Type 2 diabetes. But no other family members had the disease.
"I got really scared," Kamaal said. "I was wondering what would happen to me."
In real life, 13-year-old Kanaal Washington — one of the creators of the Dr. Diabetes comic book character — faces his own battle with diabetes. The Kansas City, Kan., teen said the adventures he and his 11-year-old brother, Malcolm, capture in their comic books are meant to spread awareness about the disease and empower those who have it.

so he can get a supply of insulin whenever he needs it, without having to receive shots. The pump includes a device about the size of a cell phone that contains insulin, with a thin tube that allows the insulin to flow from the device to Kamaal's stomach.
The diabetes books that doctors gave the boy, with their big words and medical terminology, weren't much help.
So Kamaal and his brother, Malcolm, were drawing one day and came up with a way to make it easier for kids to learn about diabetes and how to control the disease.
"You control the disease," says Kamaal, "don't let it control you."
The imposing, green, wild-haired monster scowls, punches the air and taunts, "I will make sure that everyone on the planet feels my pain. The whole world will have diabetes."
Comic entertains, informs
The comic books — which have gained national attention — tell the stories of children who learn they have diabetes and find themselves
Kamaial was 9 when he was diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes, which is most commonly found in younger children and teens and makes them dependent on injected or pumped insulin for life.
With this form of diabetes, the body's immune system attacks and destroys the insulin-producing cells of the pancreas. As many as 3 million Americans may have Type 1 diabetes, according to the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation.
Kamaal and Malcolm are working on their third diabetes-themed comic. Slated for July, the comic tells the story of a politician who refuses to work to increase funds to find a cure for diabetes and the heroes' quest to change that.
Kamaal checks his blood sugar seven to eight times a day and must watch how much sugar and salt he eats. He wears an insulin pump
"We decided to do a comic book," Kamaal said. "We wanted it to be fun and educational."
visited by Dr. Diabetes. But his wicked intentions are foiled by the heroes of the comics, Omega Boy and later, Mighty Boy. The books are sold online but will be available soon at Walgreen and CVS shops in the Kansas City area and comic book shops nationally.

MENTAL HEALTH Involuntary patients can no longer purchase guns
Gov. Timothy M. Kaine issued an executive order requiring that a database of people banned from buying guns include the name of anyone who is found to be dangerous and ordered to get involuntary mental health treatment.

no longer purchase guns RICHMOND, Va. — The governor on Monday closed the loophole in state law that allowed the Virginia Tech gunman to buy weapons despite a court ruling that he was a threat and needed psychiatric counseling.
"His lie on the form would have been caught" had the order been in place before Cho tried to buy the guns, Kaine said.
himself.
"Whether that treatment is to be provided in an inpatient or outpatient facility is of no moment," Kaine said.
Virginia has supplied more than 80,000 mental health records to the federal database. Twenty-eight states do not supply any records, either because they lack the technical ability or are barred by privacy laws.
But it would not prevent Cho from acquiring guns by several
Cho, a 23-year-old Virginia Tech senior described as a troubled loner, bought his guns legally through gun shops before gunning down 32 people on campus, then killing himself.
Cho did not disclose his mental health problems or the court-ordered treatment in a form he completed before buying the guns.
But because Cho was treated as an outpatient and never committed to a mental health hospital, the court's decision was not entered into the database, which gun dealers must check before selling a weapon.

Actor Willis could care less about fame, non cultu
NEW YORK — Bruce Willis says being a film star hasn't brought him many perks.
"It's really ... weird to be famous," the 52-year-old actor tells Vanity Fair magazine in its June issue, on newsstands May 8. "It gets you into restaurants easier than other people, but beyond that, personally,
you could set fame on fire."
Willis reprises his role as John McClane in the upcoming "Live Free or Die Hard," the fourth installment in the action series, which began in 1988.
"A lot of the physical stuff that they had me doing (for 'Live Free') was still, let's say, low-tech," he tells the magazine. "I don't bounce as well off the concrete floors as I used to. There are those 'ouch' moments that actually hurt."
"It gets really un-fun on Take Two, you know? You hope they got it in Take One," he says. "I'm glad I didn't wait a couple more years to do this."
Willis, who has three daughters from his marriage to Demi Moore, says he's not a popular subject in the press these days.
"They're not writing about guys my age much anymore, unless I do something naughty," he says.

Gain perspective, study abroad
In an evermore globalized and interconnected world, it's becoming increasingly important for students to be internationally savvy. Students now have more plentiful opportunities to travel and learn overseas. The modern college experience, no longer strictly limited to four years, provides time and opportunities for students to bum around in Fiji or to take an internship in Spain. Universities are also offering a larger number and variety of study abroad programs.
These opportunities are wonderful experiences that should be taken advantage of unreservedly. At the same time, students must realize that it is extremely easy to spend buckets of money going somewhere far away without truly experiencing the place and without gaining the ultimate traveler's education. By boldly stepping into a new world and temporarily shedding American customs, the adventurous student
can gain valuable cultural insight and sensitivity, practical language skills and historical and political lessons.
How exactly can one gain the most of an international experience?
First, try with the language. The most limited vocabularies expand quickly with practice and locals always appreciate American tourists' attempts - however bad - to speak a new language instead of arrogantly using English. Plus, there's nothing quite as amusing as the reaction obtained by screaming "I'm horny!" in a crowded dance club when attempting to say, "I'm burning up!"
Savor the culture. Skip the prosaic fast food chains and the pricey hotel dinners and find a quaint local restaurant. Frequent a local restaurant to make local friends. If traveling extensively, plan on buying foreign items instead of stocking up on American brands. Party with the locals and learn some new dance
moves. Of course, don't forget to research the fundamental cultural "dos" and "donts" prior to arriving
Get lost. Not too lost - just a little lost. A traveler doesn't have to be chained to the well-beaten tourist path. Go to outdoor markets and festivals to meander and people-watch. Visit a smaller, more authentic town with fewer tourists.
With abounding reasons and opportunities to see the world, students shouldn't think twice about packing up for an adventure. However, these experiences are far more meaningful and rewarding when used to broaden horizons, not just to party it up American-style in exotic lands. Future globetrotters should aim to gain the ultimate traveling experience by stepping into other countries with an adventurous and considerate mindset.

Thank God I bought a four wheel drive. Now I can drive down 19th Street.
For some,sex can wait
From reading The University Daily Kansan, I've learned more about sex than I ever thought possible. I've seen articles on sex between heterosexual couples, homosexual friends who are not dating, one night stands and threesomes. I've seen advice on sex toys, birth control and the best places to have sex on campus. However, I've not seen an article on the type of relationship I believe in — the kind that doesn't involve sex. So here's my take on dating without the sex. I'm not writing this to condemn others or to pass judgment, but to add another perspective to the discussion of what sex is really all about.
So what does abstinence in a committed relationship look like? For my boyfriend and me, it means saving all sexual activity for marriage. It may sound like we're ultra-conservative, anti-sex people, but really it's the opposite. We don't think sex is bad. We don't even think sex is good. We believe that sex is sacred.
Practicing abstinence is not about what we can't do, but rather what we can. While it may seem like this situation takes away our freedom to express our affection, it actually gives us many greater freedoms. Without sex in the picture, we are free to get to know each other. The time we spend together is not spent in the bedroom or in front of the TV. Instead, we experience life. We take long walks, discuss books, go dancing, cook, play ultimate Frisbee, hang out with our friends, go to church, bike and just
plain talk. I'm free from wondering if he likes me or just my body. There are so many women in the world who would give him sex with no attachment; I know that if he is with me, it is because of who I am, not what he can get from me. I'm free from the fear that as soon as I'm not exciting anymore he will move onto someone else .
Being in an abstinent relationship doesn't not mean living an anachronistic life or renouncing the real advancements in the equality of women. I don't need sex to be a fulfilled or empowered woman. To reduce my life to this one act would be to demean me as a woman and as a person.
I have made my decision to wait,
I am in control of my sexuality and
I couldn't be more satisfied.
According to the National Center for Health Statistics, women who have sex before marriage are 60 percent more likely to have a divorce and more than twice as likely to have extra-marital affairs when married (no statistics were given for men).
Unfortunately, in our culture, being a "man" is often associated with having many sexual partners. Rather, to be a man is to have courage, conviction, and strength of mind and body. What could show a woman greater courage and conviction than being willing to go against popular culture to show her the respect she deserves?

University should reinstate May tradition
I used to believe that the University of Kansas History Web site was created solely for the Kansan's weekly trivia drawing. My friend really wants to win the drawing. She's tried for months, years even. But I recently found out that the Web site is interesting aside from offering a chance at winning a variety of gift certificates, when I came across a fascinating part of our past.
In 1891, when our university was not yet 30 years old, an event occurred that, during the next 15 years, would grow into a tradition. This event was the Maypole Scrap. Every year, early on May 1, the freshmen would get together and erect a maypole. They would then cover the surface of the pole with tar or molasses or some other sticky, gross or generally repulsive substance. Then as campus started to fill, the freshmen forced passersby to pay their respects to the class, and rubbed their faces on the pole if they refused. Later in the day the sophomores would get tired of the young ones' insolence, and attempt to take the pole down. Over the years the sophomores became more innovative. They corralled the freshmen with a wire cable, and scared them from the pole by throwing live snakes, or flaming bales of hay.
Eventually the juniors would come to aid the freshmen, the seniors allied with the sophomores and a massive campus-wide brawl broke out. This led to bruises, dislocated arms, and broken jaws, but continued to happen. That is until Chancellor Frank Strong laid the boring hammer down in 1905 and forced all the classes to cease their good-natured violence. The ritual riot was replaced shortly thereafter with a lame ceremony involving white dresses, flower hats and that pole with streamers on it from the Safety Dance video. But then everyone realized it was dumb and put it down like the Joey spin-off.
Hearing about this made me think that the closest thing we have today would probably be the giant inflatable funland, straight out of the '90s classic "Blank Check" they put out next to Wescoe when the weather turns nice. If that isn't aggressive enough, there's always a highly passionate yet completely unproductive shouting match with Brother Jed Smock on Wescoe Beach.
But there is nothing today as pure or as boundless and essentially free as a giant, class-divided brawl. New activities merely attempting to placate the spirits of the student body to yield a generation more numb than any in recent memory. Which is why, if asked if I would rather have another wax replica of my hand made, or try my hand at dodging fireballs while engaging in a battle for the glory of my class, I would ask if you had a light.

When the hacky sacks and the street preachers begin to reemerge on Wescoe, ignore those preachers, whatever religion they are, whose only goal is to invite heckling. But, when you find a preacher who honestly wants to talk, don't attack because you disagree; rather, ask some questions and listen to the responses. Help us create an atmosphere at Kansas which rejects pointless arguments and seeks the truth instead.

OPINION@KANSAN.COM
The afternoons on Wescoe Beach are now warm enough to allow two near-permanent fixtures back on campus: Those guys playing hacky sack and the seasonal assortment of street preachers.
This would change things in two ways. First, the street preachers of the Fred Phelpsian persuasion, the ones spoiling for a fight, would find themselves bored by a group of students who had no intention of growing angry and instead asked careful questions about the source of their views. Second, and this is the exciting thing to me, people who wanted open and honest debate would feel free to stand up and talk.
COMMENTARY
I would love to see an 80-year-old Presbyterian stand up opposite a Tibetan Buddhist to debate the path to God. I don't pretend they would agree, but as it is, we don't even know what the differences are because we're too caught up in yelling.
I try to maintain a generally nonconfrontational disposition, so when I am walking across campus and see a crowd foaming like the ocean before a storm, I turn my head and cross the street in order to avoid the situation.
Sometimes though, especially when the guy in the green, three-piece suit sits on his folding chair at the top of Wescoe's stairs, I duck under someone's arm in order to catch a few notes of his droning voice. I like to listen to the music of his speeches, which incorporates the taunts from the crowd with his own imprecations. Listening to him is something of a guilty pleasure for me
》 SUBMISSIONS
Schneider is a Topeka junior in English.
Whether we gather around him because we are angry or intrigued, we have only three options since we can't ban free speech in a public place (nor would we want to).
We have another choice, though. Instead of yelling, which won't change anyone's mind, we could become known as the prime destination for street preachers. What if the University of Kansas became famous for our courtesy and receptivity toward anyone who stood up and shouted from the top of the stairs?

Nuss, who graduated from the University in 2006 and now works as the national campus coordinator for 2020 Vision, which holds events promoting alternative energies, said there was another key difference between his event in 2004 and the event today: He said he was only memorializing 1,061 fallen soldiers in 2004.

Chris Verbeck, Weston, Mo., junior, also chalked Monday night. He heard about the memorial as a member of Delta Force, but he said he had an added interest in writing because he knew a soldier who died in Iraq.
He said the soldier, Colby Farnan, was from his small community and his death had a drastic impact on the town. Verbeck said heled like to write Farnan's name in the memorial.
Unlike Groebblacher, Verbeck said the memorial is politically based for him.

"It could take a very long time and I think it's important to honor every one of them," Marcinkowski said.
Another chalker, Sonia Marcinkowski, Blue Springs, Mo., junior, said she thought it was odd how quickly people responded when 33 people died in the Virginia Tech shootings, and yet they don't think about how many Americans have died in the war. She said writing out the names in the memorial would show the cost of war.

Even without weather in the way, Kansas (22-26, 8-13) was forced to cancel Monday night's game against the University of St. Mary. The game, scheduled for 6:30 p.m., was called off because of technical difficulties.
New lights were installed at Hoglund Ballpark while the Jayhawks were on the road during the last two weeks. On Monday morning the lights weren't ready yet.

"They were not sure if they would finish work in time to start the game," Associate Athletics Director Jim Marchiony said of the workers installing the lights.
An attempt was made to reschedule the game for earlier in the day, but St. Mary was unavailable at an earlier time. Instead, Kansas has added a game against Bethany College at 6 p.m. on Wednesday at Hoglund Ballpark.
While Kansas was away at Texas Tech and Oklahoma the last two weekends, workers had time to replace lights at the ballpark. The lights were still functional but it was possible for them to be better.

Cornish expects CFL success
Ask a Canadian about sports and he or she will most likely bring up hockey. After all, it is the country's national pastime. But one native Canadian is more interested in pursuing a football career north of the border.
BY ASHER FUSCO
Cornish, who was not selected in last weekend's NFL Draft, has decided to continue his football career with the Calgary Stampeders of the Canadian Football League.
"It is definitely a dream come true to go home to Canada and play football," former University of Kansas running back Jon Cornish said in a press release yesterday.

"I think playing on a wider and longer surface will allow me to utilize my speed better," Cornish said. "The one thing that hurt my chances in the NFL should be an advantage in the CFL."
Cornish may need to make some adjustments to his new league. In the CFL, the playing field is 10 yards longer and nearly 12 yards wider than the playing field in American football. Canadian football teams are allowed 12 players on the field
to training camp in Mav.
"I feel that I am a very knowledgeable football player, having learned many things from coach Mark Mangino and (former Kansas running backs coach) Earle Mosley," Cornish said.
Returning to his native country should help ease the pressure of playing professional football. He hails from New Westminster, British Columbia, just one province away from his new home in Calgary, Alberta.
Calgary begins its 20-game regular season on June 15. Regular season play continues through November and is followed by a sixteam playoff for the Grey Cup.
He said he is confident he will receive plenty of playing time with his new team and be able to adjust to the team's offensive scheme.

COMMENTARY
NCAA can't prohibit practice with men
BY MICHAEL PHILLIPS
KANSAN SPORTS COLUMNIST
MPHILIPS@KANSAN.COM
JOHN FERRARI
Title IX was a landmark piece of legislation that gave women the right
to compete in high-level collegiate athletics. Now it has turned into a buzzword that can be thrown at any problem, even non-existent ones.
Well, sign me up.
Another benefit is that players like Wallace can be coached to resemble a different opponent each week. If a forward at Baylor always dribbles to her right, one of the practice players can spend the week dribbling to the right.
"We didn't get anything." Wallace said. "They did our laundry. That was the biggest perk."
"Over the course of the year you can have them simulate other people's styles, because they're not working on their own," Henrickson said.
A majority of Division-I programs currently have a group of men that help out during women's basketball practices. They keep players fresh by reducing their workload, as well as imitating the size and strength of opponents.
The NCAA Committee on Women's Athletics has called for a ban on allowing men to practice with women's basketball teams.
"I think it's something that has been very beneficial," said Kansas coach Bonnie Henrickson. "I would be awfully disappointed if we lost the opportunity to work with these young men."
But the NCAA says that these opportunities should be going to women, not men. The Committee has pulled out the "Title IX" card, but it's so far away from the action that it can't realize the ban wouldn't help female players — it would hurt them.
Wallace spent a year and a half practicing with the Jayhawks. Kansas has a practice squad of twelve players, most of whom are former high school players. They took turns coming to the team's six weekly practices, running and sweating with the team for two hours. This "valuable opportunity" must have paid well, right?
Stunningly, Henrickson can't just grab an athletic 6-foot-4 woman off Wescoe Beach and bring her to practice. All the women who are physically capable of playing Division-1 basketball are already doing so. So she invites men like senior Steven Wallace to come imitate Big 12 competition.
The Jayhawks go up against players like Oklahoma's Courtney Paris. She's a towering 6-foot-4, and in 2006 became the first freshman to lead the nation in rebounding.
Wallace added that it opened his eyes to just how athletic the players were.
"You try to guard a player like Shaap Mosley, and she's quicker than any of the guys that play at the Rec Center," he said. "And she can shoot

Newcastle United's Michael Owens shoots during the Premiership match against Reading at the Maidskiet Stadium, Reading England, on Monday. Newcastle United striker Michael Owen played for the first time since the 2006 World Cup in Monday's Premier League match.
Soccer. Ooops, I just lost more than half of my readers. But those who like watching the best players in the best leagues compete against each other in the world's most popular sport should tune to ESPN's coverage of the Union of European Football Association (UEFA) Champions League semi-finals.
European soccer is an incredible spectacle. These games are exceptionally fast-paced, the passing is clean and the atmospheres are notous — literally. In the quarterfinals, Manchester United supporters had to wait an hour and a half inside of AC Roma's arena before they could leave because of threats to their safety, and they were still assaulted. Any visiting fan who traveled to Rome for a soccer game has my respect. That's dedication. These games are something any soccer fan has to watch, for the atmosphere, if nothing else.
Today begins the all-important second leg of the semi-finals, and all four teams are stacked with world-class talent who are really fun to watch. Those who watched last summer's World Cup closely will recognize most of the players.
For those unfamiliar with the rules of the Champions League, here's a brief summary. In the elimination stage, each matchup (besides the winner-take-all final) consists of two games, one home and one away. The aggregate total of goals decides who moves on, with away goals as the tie-breaker. If the number of away goals is a tie, the teams go into overtime. If overtime decides nothing, a penalty shootout will.
Last week during the semi-finals
first leg Manchester United hosted ACMilan in an absolute thriller. United was short-handed with injuries that plagued its backline, leaving the Brazilian Kala, Milan's amazing attacking midfielder, able to ravish his opponents with his power and speed.
He scored two incredible goals in the first half. One left two Manchester defenders helpless after they collided into each other in an attempt to stop kaka's breakaway.
As they converged, Kaka headed the ball through a tiny space between them, giving him a relatively easy finish once they were on the ground and embarrassed. He owned them both.
As it turned out, England's Wayne Roney scored two second-half goals — one with only seconds remaining in the match
Manchester's Christiano Ronaldo, the upstart 22-year-old superstar from Portugal, had an early first-half goal that left Milan up only 2-1 at the half. With two away goals already, Milan sat pretty. If the score remained the same, Manchester would need two away goals and a victory during the next leg to even think about advancing to the final.
Who will advance to Athens, Greece, for the final? Only time will tell. It's anybody's game.
— to lead his team to a clutch victory. Rooney's late-game heroics have forced Milan to win at home on Wednesday. If he hadn't scored, Manchester would have been in Milan's situation, forced to win in Italy in order to advance. What a difference one goal can make.
The other semi-final features two English squads: Chelsea and Liverpool. The first leg saw Chelsea victorious, as Englishman Joe Cole's goal (set up by a gorgeous run from Ivory Coast native Didier Drogbä) was the difference in the 1-0 match. They play again today at 1:30 p.m.
Without an away goal, all the pressure is on Liverpool's defense to perform at home. If Chelsea scores even once, Liverpool would need three goals to overcome the tiebreaker.

ASSOCIATED PRESS
Gordon may fill void left by'The Intimidator'
TALLADEGA, Ala. — Accept it,
race fans: Dale Earnhardt and Jeff
Gordon were buddies.
The old man respected the kid and took time to help him adjust to NASCAR's politics. Earnhardt recognized Gordon as a huge talent and cherished their on-track battles, knowing each victory was a win against a driver destined to go down as one of the best.
It's fact, yet many Earnhardt fans choose to ignore it.
They pretend the two drivers were bitter rivals, two very different men with nothing in common. No matter how hard he tries or what he accomplishes, Earnhardt fans are adamant that Gordon simply does not stack up against The Intimidator.
Turns out, though, that Gordon is a whole lot more like Earnhadt than anyone imagined.
Gordon proved it Sunday with career victory No. 77, which pushed him past Earnhardt for sixth placeon
The feat was met with a shower of beer cans thrown from the stands.
NASCAR's list. It came at Taladega Superseedway, where the crowd is virtually all pro-Earnhardt, and on the day Earnhardt would have celebrated his 56th birthday.
The record book will show that Gordon took the lead with three laps to go and then won under caution during overtime. But the victory seemed destined hours earlier when he made an Earnhardtes quest in the preace drivers' meeting.
NASCAR warned the drivers that there's a fine line between skillfully bump drafting and aggressive driving. Gordon respectfully disagreed. In a room packed with his peers, he spoke with NASCAR president Mike Helton about the dangers the drivers were about to face.
"I absolutely don't think here is a fine line," he began. "We're not able to mandate it ourselves. You guys have to mandate it because we've got the adrenaline flowing. We're competitors out there trying to win. And we see one guy push another guy, it
allows us each to continue to do it more and more.
"And, yeah, obviously, you can't do it in the corners, but we still do it. Even on the straightways, it's about judging the speed and were still wrecking on the straightways. I don't think that should be happening at all. We can make a great, exciting race out there. And no offense to your warning, but when you drop the green, I guarantee we're going to be doing it."
And that, Tony Stewart, is how to make a point.
Days after Stewart exposed the sport to ridicule by comparing it to professional wrestling on his national radio show, Gordon calmly made a point to NASCAR that benefited all 43 drivers in the field.
For a guy who has resisted replacing the voice that was lost when Earnhardt died in 2001, Gordon certainly appeared a perfect fit for the role Sunday.
He insisted after his victory that too much was being made of his stand.

BIG 12 BASEBALL
TUESDAY, MAY 1, 2007
Tigers move into second
BY SHAWN SHROYER
NO. 13 TEXAS A&M
(35-11, 11-9) VS. BAYLOR
(25-21, 8-13)
UP2: Texas A&M starting pitchers Kyle Nicholson (10-1) and David Newmann (7-1) combined for 17 strikeouts while allowing only five runs in 14-1/3 innings to help the Aggies clinch the series.
IN THE HOLE: Baylor's designated hitter Matt Sodolak didn't do much hitting during the weekend, going 2-for-12 with two strikeouts.
ON DECK: Texas A&M gets a week off from Big 12 play, taking on Dallas Baptist this weekend while Baylor tries to keep its Big 12 Tournament hopes alive at Nebraska.
OKLAHOMA (28-17, 8-10)
VS. KANSAS (22-26, 8-13)
SERIES: KANSAS, 2-1
UP: Kansas catcher Buck Afenir helped the Kansas offense get on track after being shut out on Friday. In Kansas' victories on Saturday and Sunday, Afenir went 3-for-8 with a home run (6), two doubles, four RBI and four runs.
IN THE HOLE: Oklahoma designated hitter Ryan Mottern had a rough weekend at the plate, going 1 for-12 and leaving five men on base.
ON DECK: Oklahoma will play in-state rival Oklahoma State this weekend with the first game in Tulsa and the final two games in Oklahoma City. Kansas plays its own in-state rival, Kansas State,
this weekend. Friday's game will be played in Manhattan and Saturday and Sunday's games will be played in Lawrence.
NEBRASKA (25-18, 10-11)
VS. KANSAS STATE
(27-17, 7-11)
SERIES: NEBRASKA 3-1
UP: Nebraska first baseman Andrew Brown helped the Cornhuskers take their series with the Wildcats. Brown went 6-for-11 with two home runs (7,8), five RBI and three runs.
IN THE HOLE: Nebraska was five outs from sweeping Kansas State, but the Cornhuskers surrendered a run in the eighth to tie the game at 1-1 before coughing up seven runs in the 10th inning, wasting a 10-strike-out performance by starting pitcher Luke Wertz (2-0) and eventually losing 8-2.
ON DECK: Nebraska also takes a break from Big 12 action this weekend, playing host to Coastal Carolina. Kansas State will play host to Kansas on Friday and travel to Lawrence on Saturday and Sunday.
MISSOURI (31-12, 12-6)
VS. TEXAS TECH
(25-21, 7-13)
SERIES: MISSOURI 3-0
UP: Missouri designated hitter Jacob Pridway guided the Tigers to their first Big 12 sweep of the season as they assumed the No. 2 spot in the conference standings. Pridway went 6-for-11 with three home runs, (5) nine RBI and six runs.
IN THE HOLE: Texas Tech start-ing pitchers AJ Ramos (5-3) and Colt Hynes (3-5) put the Red Raiders in a hole on Friday and Saturday, combining to allow 15 earned runs on 14 hits in 5-2/3 innings.
ON DECK: Missouri will get a true test this weekend to see if it belongs at the top of the Big 12 as it takes on Texas in Austin. Getting out of the Big 12 basement won't get any easier for Texas Tech this weekend at home against Oklahoma State.
NO. 20 OKLAHOMA STATE
(31-13, 10-8) VS.
NO. 5 TEXAS (37-12, 17-4)
SERIES: TEXAS 3-0
**UP:** Texas' bullpen combined to pitch 9-2/3 scoreless innings of relief, striking out 15, as the Longhorns solidified themselves as the best team in the Big 12.
IN THE HOLE: Oklahoma State's big boppers, second baseman Tyler Mach and third baseman Matt Mangini, didn't show up against Texas. The duo went a combined 2-for-18 with five strikeouts and left nine men on base as the Cowboys fell to third in the Big 12 standings.
ON DECK: Oklahoma State will try to reclaim the second spot in the conference at Texas Tech this weekend. Texas, now alone atop the Big 12, will find out what Missouri is made of this weekend at home.

The remaining 11 games will now be played under Musco brand lights, what Marchiony described as top of the line and much improved compared to what the Jayhawks had been playing under. Although installment took a little extra time and sacrificed Monday's game, the crew putting up the lights worked diligently.
easy as simply taking down the old ones and screwing in new bulbs. The new lights required new wiring of the light poles, which meant new trenches needed to be dug to accommodate the wiring. Workers finished the process by aiming and testing the lights.
New poles were not needed, but putting up new lights wasn't as

"It's absolutely absurd," new Duke coach and former Michigan
State coach Joanne McCallie was quoted as saying. "It's got nothing to do with equity and everything to do with politics."
The Women's Basketball Coaches Association is working to keep male practice players, and claims "overwhelming support" from its
Last week the NCAA released the results of the first comprehensive survey on the issue, which showed that 205 coaches used male practice players in 2006. The others were probably busy climbing a ladder to get their basketball out of a peach basket.
Title IX changed women's sports.
Equality is no longer just in numbers. It means that women can compete at the highest possible level, and should have the tools at their disposal to make that possible.
Anything less would be unfair.

Majerus returns to coach SLU
SAINT LOUIS SAINT LOUIS UNIVERSITY
Rick Majerus speaks during a news conference introducing him as the new basketball coach at Saint Louis University Monday in St. Louis. Majerus agreed to a six-year contract with the school, which hasn't been to the NCAA tournament since 2000, and comes to Saint Louis with a career record of 422-147 with 15 postseason appearances.
BY R.B. FALLSTROM ASSOCIATED PRESS
ST. LOUISE — Rick Majerus got out of coaching three years ago because of health concerns. Now his biggest worry is how long it'll take to put Saint Louis back on the basketball map.
Still round and nearly bald, the 59-year-old Majerus was introduced at a news conference Monday and thought his appearance "eerily" similar to the school's gnome-like Billiken mascot. He joked that his last name means "sausage eater," and said there was no chance of squeezing into the jersey that's standard for such ceremonies.
"It was nice to get the jersey" he said, "even if it doesn't fit."
Majerus said he feels fit and is ready to take on the challenge of leading a school that last made it to the NCAA tournament in 2000.
"I'm never going to wear a 42 regular," Majerus said. "But I swim one mile every day, and on a good day a mile-and-a-half. I think my health is good, or I wouldn't do this. It wouldn't be fair to them."
Majerius, who agreed to a six-year contract on Friday, has a career record of 422-147 with 15 postseason appearances. He had been an analyst with ESPN the last three years.
"I saw this as an opportunity," Majerus said. "I don't think I forgot how to do it. I love practice and I love the kids and I like the game."
The Rev. Lawrence Biondi, the university president, hired Majerus to elevate the school to Top 50 status. Neither Biondi nor Majerus believed there was a fast track to success.
"Rick, I am sure, will tell you it won't happen overnight," Biondi said. "But it will happen. This is a truly exciting day for men's basketball."
Majerus got a sneak peek at his team, which has four returning starters, by conducting a pair of brief weekend practices.
"I just don't know the guys well enough." Majerus said. "You don't
want to panic in these situations. It's not about this year, it's about laying the groundwork for the program."
If he doesn't know his roster yet, they know all about him.
"I think he's going to move the program in the right direction," said forward Luke Meyer. "He's a big name, and his reputation precedes him."
Majerus replaces Brad Soderberg, who won 20 games in the last of his five seasons but failed to generate even an NIT bid his last three years. Soderberg, fired earlier this month, was 80-74 overall.
Athletic director Chieryl Levick wanted to give Soderberg one more season but was overruled by Biondi, who envisioned the high-profile hire
of Majerus as a complement to the school's new $85 million on-campus arena set to open in 2008.
"I'm a big supporter of Brad, but that has nothing to do with Rick." Levick said. "He'll take this program to the next level as we open this new arena. It's the perfect combination."
Majerus coached Utah to the NCAA tournament final in 1998, losing to Kentucky, and stepped down in January 2004 because of health reasons. He accepted the Southern California position in December 2004 only to change his mind three days later.
Last year, he turned down an offer to become an assistant coach with the Denver Nuggets.

So far, so good. Fans and students attending Monday's news conference cheered wildly when Majerus entered the room.
"I don't think going to L.A. would have been the right choice, and I think he knew that — the press, the stress, talk radio."
"Today a new chapter in Billiken basketball begins with the hiring of one of the most successful coaches of all time," Biondi said. "Rick is a coach who lives and breaths basketball and who sees the future of what we have at SLU."

BY ANDREW O. SELSKY ASSOCIATED PRES$^c$
SAN JUAN, Puerto Rico — The top Jamaican policeman investigating the homicide of Pakistan's cricket coach said on Monday he has not confirmed that Bob Woolmer was incapacitated by a drug before
being strangled.
An employee who answered the phone at the laboratory's headquarters in Birmingham, England, after business hours said nobody was available to comment.
The BBC's Panorama program did not identify the drug or the source of its information, and said toxicology tests were due
The British Broadcasting Corp.reported that a toxicology test on Woolmer's body shows the presence of a drug that would have incapacitated him.
"No results and we have NOT confirmed anything. Work is ongoing."
MARK SHIELDS
Jamaican deputy
police commissioner
Mark Shields, the deputy police commissioner in Jamaica, emphatically said his investigators have not concluded that Woolmer was drugged.
Woolmer, 58, was found unconscious in his room in Jamaica and within an hour declared dead in a hospital on March 18, the day after his squad was upset by Ireland and eliminated from the World Cup. Police said he was strangled.
Shields said toxicology tests were done in Jamaica and sent with British police officers to a government-owned laboratory in their country, The Forensic Science Service, to be "independently verified."
"No results and we have NOT confirmed anything," the former Scotland Yard policeman, Shields, said in a text message to The Associated Press from his cell phone. "Work is ongoing."
Shields has not yet heard back from the British laboratory. He would not discuss whether the toxicology tests indicated the presence of a drug that could have incapacitated Woolmer.
to be given to Jamaican police next week. In London, Scotland Yard said it has no information and that the investigation and all inquiries are being handled by police in Jamaica.
Shields has
said in the past that foreign investigators would examine theories that Woolmer may have been drugged. He said that would have made it easier to strangle a man as large as Woolmer, a former England test batsman.
"A lot of force would be needed to do that," Shields told the BBC. "Bob Woolmer was a large man and that's why one could argue that it was an extremely strong person, or maybe more than one person, but equally the lack of external injuries suggests that there might be some other factors and that's what we're looking into at the moment."
Security video from the Kingston hotel where Woolmer died was sent to a laboratory in Britain for review. Some images of the footage were obtained by the BBC.
One image shown on a BBC Web site showed Woolmer, dressed in a white T-shirt, talking with two people as he headed to an elevator in the Pegasus Hotel in Kingston, Jamaica, hours before he was killed in his room. The BBC identified the two people as fans.

Doctor pleads guilty to health fraud
PROVIDENCE, R.I. — A former doctor will plead guilty to illegally

plans to plead guilty June 1 to 29 counts of health care fraud, conspiracy and illegal drug distribution in federal court in Providence, said her attorney, Edward C. Roy.
Prosecutors say Santi and other doctors were enlisted by Daniel McGlone, the president of New Jersey-based American Pharmaceutical Group, to write prescriptions for bodybuilders and other customers from April 2004 until August 2006.
"It's in her best interests." Roy said.
Santi, who was stripped of her New York medical license in 1999, forged the signature of a doctor living in a California nursing home on the prescriptions she wrote, prosecutors said. She is suspected of earning $25 for each prescription.
The plea agreement says Santi wrote prescriptions on behalf of at least three companies besides American Pharmaceutical Group.

The maximum prison sentence for all 29 counts is 155 years.
Prosecutors have agreed to recommend a reduced sentence for
Tom Connell, a spokesman for the U.S. attorney's office in Rhode Island, declined to comment on the
plea agreement.
McGlone is charged with adver
tising steroids and human growth hormone to bodybuilders and other customers and then paying doctors to write unnecessary prescriptions. He has披led not guilty.
Another doctor, Victor Mariani,
pleaded guilty in March for his role.
Prosecutors say that once McGleone received the prescriptions from Santi and Mariani, he would send them to be filled by other pharmacies, including Orlando, Fla.-based Signature Pharmacy.
Linked to that case, in various reports, are a number of sports stars, including baseball's Gary Matthews Jr., former heavyweight champion Evander Holyfield and 1996 Olympic wrestling gold medalist Kurt Angle.

KANSAS CITY, Kan. — Dan Wheldon heads to Indianapolis hoping to upstage a bunch of guys in helmets.
Football helmets, that is. White ones, with blue horseshoes on the sides.
"It's the home of the Super Bowl champions," Wheldon said after winning Sunday's IndyCar Series race at Kansas Speedway. "Hopefully, we can overshadow them with a great race."
Then Wheldon caught himself — a bit.
"Not to take anything away from the Colts," he said, "because I like the Colts and Peyton Manning, too."
It would be hard to blame the Englishman for his confidence.

Wheldon already has won there once, in 2005. But he's not content to leave it at that, or to spend much time savoring his first victory at Kansas Speedway after two close second-place finishes.
"Like I've emphasized, now we can start thinking about Indy," said Wheldon, who led 177 of 200 laps on Sunday and has led 485 of 700 laps this season for Target Chip Ganassi Racing. "I get excited about that. That's the one I'm desperate to try and win."
But is Wheldon, whose 2005 win came during his championship season, the favorite this time around?

that. I think it's difficult to say who is the favorite going into Indianapolis," he said. "Do I think I'm going to be a contender? Absolutely."

"I honestly think you could pick 10 to 15 people," Wheldon said. "That's the thing about Indianapolis. I mean, it wouldn't be Indianapolis if it was just one of those races where three or four people could win."
And early-season momentum doesn't always count for much heading into open-wheel racing's marque event, as the defending Indy champion knows all too well.

that was parked along a highway in St. Louis early Sunday,
"Josh was very upbeat Saturday," Askins said. "He had just had a new contract negotiated and he was really happy."
Samford University baseball coach Casey Dunn was a teammate of Hancock both at Vestavia Hills and Auburn.
"Josh was a great friend, a great teammate at Vestavia Hills and at Auburn," Dunntold The Birmingham News in a story Monday. "This is a shock. He flew (wife) Marti and me to St. Louis last season and we spent some time with him. We talked often. I was so proud of him."
At Vestavia Hills, Hancock went 28-1 as the school won three straight Class 6A state championships. He holds the Alabama High School Athletic Association record with 27 straight wins (1994-96). As a senior, he was 9-0 with an 0.92 ERA.
Hancock was an important part of the 1997 Auburn baseball team that advanced to the College World Series. Hancock went 2-0 with a 4.75 ERA in 13 appearances for the Tigers, striking out 32 in 30 1/3 innings.
"Josh was a part of arguably the best pitching staff and arguably the best team ever to play at Auburn," said current Tigers coach Tom Slater, who was an assistant on the team, which included Tim Hudson, now with the Atlanta Braves. "It is a shame when anyone dies, especially someone as young as Josh, in a tragic accident."
Dunn remembered taking his father, the late Vestavia Hills coach Sammy Dunn, to Atlanta in 2002 to see Hancock's major league debut. It was a trip his father, who had coached Hancock and was battling cancer, didn't want to miss.
"It brings so much pride to all of us when one of our own can reach that level." Dunn said.
Funeral services in his parents' hometown of Tupelo, Miss., are scheduled for Thursday.

》 APARTMENT FIRE
Mike Yoder, Pool/A ASSOCIATED PRESS On the opening day of his trial Allen Rose listens to witness testimony Tuesday in Douglas County District Court. Rose is charged with three counts of murder, one count of aggravated arson and seven counts of aggravated battery related to setting a deadly fire in October 2005 at the Boardwalk Apartments in Lawrence.
Witnesses testify in Boardwalk retrial

For the second time in less than three months, Leigh McHatton sat before a panel of jurors Tuesday and described the deadly fire that left her with severe burns all over her body.
"It was just kind of chaos. People running around, not knowing what to do. Everyone was just in shock," McHatton said of the Boardwalk Apartmentts fire in October 2005 that left three dead. "I was just in total shock. I kept saying, 'Oh my God, oh my God.'"
McHatton, who was a University of Kansas student at the time of the fire, has since graduated and now lives in Denver. She was the first survivor to testify in the murder
and arson trial of Jason Allen Rose, who is accused of starting the fire. Rose's initial trial was declared a mistrial after the prosecution moved to admit a late

Melton told the jury they would have to answer two questions.
"Was the Boardwalk fire intentionally set? And did Jason Rose do it?" Melton said. "The answers in Jason Rose's statement will answer those questions, and the answer will be 'Yes'."
Rose admitted to starting the fire when he was questioned on police video after the fire. The video, which will be shown later in the trial, spans several hours. Rose's defense attorney, Ron Evans, asked the jury to be mindful of the circumstances of the statement when he responded with his opening statement.

Lawrence to consider plan for new Wal-Mart
Amidst a dramatic protest and opposition from locals the city agreed to the submission of a new development plan for a Wal-Mart store at the northwest corner of Sixth Street and Wakarusa Drive on Tuesday night.
MATT ERICKSON
The commission's discussion of the development included participation by more than 20 members of the public and a theatrical demonstration by opponents.
Mayor Sue Hack said the commission expected a new plan.
"It is our assumption and our hope that an additional plan would be submitted," she said.
Angie Stoner, Wal-Mart spokesperson, said Wal-Mart had not yet decided whether to submit a new plan for a development at Sixth and Wakarusa, but that a decision would be made in a matter of days.
The commission held the discussion after agreeing to a delay in a lawsuit that Wal-Mart had filed against the city for denying its development plans. The commission denied Wal-Mart's last plans in October 2006 by a 3-2 vote. Since then, new commissioners Rob Chestnut and Mike Dever have replaced two of the commissioners who voted against that proposal.

Woman uses five snakes as weapons in standoff
SUNBURY, Pa. — A woman accused of holding police at bay by brandishing poisonous snakes was sentenced to house arrest and probation on Monday.
Officers were trying to prevent the despondent woman from harming herself with a hunting knife when the confrontation took place Oct. 25.
Jackson picked up two western diamondback rattlesnake, a pygmy rattlesnake and two copperheads to try to keep police from taking her into custody, authorities said.
Jackson, who was raising the snakes for laboratories, received several bites during the standoff and was taken to a hospital after police subdued her with a stun gun.

spoke against the Wal-Mart proposal. But Scott Henderson, a former zoning appeals board member, said his board had been unfair in denying Wal-Mart a building permit. He said he wanted the city to settle the lawsuit with Wal-Mart and move on to avoid the cost of further legal fees.
"You're wasting our money," Henderson said. "Those tax dollars could go to a lot of different issues."
Opponents of the Wal-Mart proposal raised concerns about Lawrence's retail supply outstripping its retail demand, "big box" national chains taking money away from locally owned businesses, and the possible creation of traffic problems that could be compounded by inexperienced teenage drivers coming from nearby Free State High School,
also near Sixth and Wakarusa.
Kirk McClure, professor of urban planning, spoke about a study he had conducted about Lawrence's retail market.

Teacher cleared of forcing student to urinate in class
SACRAMENTO, Calif. — School officials on Tuesday cleared a science teacher who was accused of forcing a 14-year-old boy to urinate into a bottle during class, saying the eighth grader acted on his own.
The district cited rules that instruct teachers not to let students out of class during the first and last 10 minutes of a period. Goethe Middle School teacher Peter Stanzler
"Less than five minutes into the class period, the student urinated into a bottle and discarded it in a trash can," the statement said. "Shocked at the student's actions, the teacher told the student to dispose of the bottle in the restroom and wash his hands."
told the boy, Michael Patterson, to wait until the class had settled down before going to the bathroom, the district said in a statement.
The student claims he repeatedly asked to use the bathroom and was told to relieve himself into a bottle about 20 to 30 minutes into the
period. He said the teacher threatened him with suspension if he left the classroom, although the district disputed that in its statement.
Principal Harriet Young on Monday suspended Michael until May 8 for disrupting school activities. The district has placed teacher Peter Stanzler on paid leave and transferred him to another school.
"If this case is so cut and dry, why is the teacher being disciplined?" said Michael's mother, Kelly Jacko.

Judge Jack A. Murphy adjourned the court just after 4 p.m. Tuesday and said it would reconvene at 9 a.m. Wednesday. The trial is expected to last up to two weeks.

He said that the "$64,000 question" was for the jury not to make conclusions about whether Rose was treated fairly in questioning.
Dobson, a New Zealand native, testified that before shooting the video, he had tried to call police. A cultural difference — the emergency number in New Zealand is 1-1-1 instead of 9-1-1 — kept Dobson from connecting with emergency dispatch, so he said he picked up his newly purchased video camera instead.
"I submit that you'll have a reasonable doubt," Evans said. "And we'll be asking you to find him not guilty."

The tape showed the middle portion of the Boardwalk building engulfed in flames, as well as fire trucks responding to the scene. Dobson's voice commented on the response time on the video.
During the afternoon session of Tuesday's hearings, the prosecution called on Andrew Dobson, who lived across the street from the burned building. Dobson shot a nine-minute video of the fire, which was shown in court Tuesday.

But not everyone has been open to the studio's novel homes, Cole said. Jeff Fendorf, vice president of operations and community development for El Centro, a Kansas City social organization that helped finance the project, said the studio had problems finding a place for last year's house.
Fendorf said last year's site, in Westheight, another historic neighborhood near Rosedale, had to be moved because of objections from the community and the Kansas State Historical Society. He said El Centro bought this year's site directly from the Rosedale Development Association, which knew what it was getting into.

studio and El Centro.
"There's a pretty good demand for these things," Fendorf said. "People like the houses."

BP chief executive resigns
ASSOCIATED PRESS
LONDON — BP PLC's Chief Executive John Browne resigned Tuesday, hours after a judge allowed a newspaper to publish allegations from a former boyfriend that the executive misused company resources.
Browne, who had already moved up his departure by more than a year after a deadly refinery blast in Texas and a giant oil spill in Alaska, denied any improper conduct relating to BP. But he acknowledged that he had lied to a judge about how he met his former partner, with whom he had a four-year relationship.
The Mail on Sunday, the newspaper that had sought to publish the claims, immediately called for Browne to be prosecuted for perjury.
Browne said he regretted the lie, saying he was in shock at his private life being exposed, aid was stepping down voluntarily "to avoid unnecessary embarrassment and distraction to the company."
"For the past 41 years of my career at BP I have kept my private life separate from my business life," he said.
Browne's designated successor, exploration and production head Tony Hayward, will take over as CEO immediately, the company said. He will have to repair BP's tarnished reputation after the series of high-profile operational and regulatory mishaps.
BP said Browne's decision meant he would lose a bonus of up to 1.3 times his annual salary, worth more than 3.5 million pounds ($6.9 million). He would also forgo inclusion in a share plan with a potential value of 12 million pounds ($23.9 million).
Browne, 59, had been fighting since January to keep the Mail on Sunday from publishing details from the interview with Jeff Chevalier. He acknowledged the relationship in the statement Tuesday and apologized for lying to the judge.
"My initial witness statements ... contained an untruthful account about how I first met Jeff," he said. "This account, prompted by my embarrassment and shock at the revelations, is a matter of deep regret."
The Mail on Sunday said it would provide evidence of Browne's deception to the attorney general's office.
CUBA
Castro missed at May Day march
ASSOCIATED PRESS
HAVANA — There was no sign of a convalescing Fidel Castro as hundreds of thousands of Cubans marched through Havana's Revolution Plaza to celebrate May Day, casting new doubts on his recovery and whether he will return to power.
Tuesday marked only the third time in nearly five decades that Castro has missed the sweeping International Workers' Day festivities, a major celebration here and around the world.
While recent images of Castro meeting with Chinese leaders indicated he had improved considerably since undergoing emergency surgery nine months ago, his absence at the parade through the Revolution Plaza raised questions about whether he is strong enough to run the country.
The 80-year-old leader has
missed two other major events since announcing his illness on July 31 and temporarily ceding power to his 75-year-old brother Raul Castro, the defense minister. Raul presided at the Nonaligned Summit in September and a major military parade in December.
"It now seems more unlikely than before that he will fully resume the presidency," said Wayne Smith, the former head of the American mission in Havana. "And the more time that passes, the more unlikely it seems."
Smith said that with Castro failed to show Tuesday, Venezuela President Hugo Chavez's assertions this week that Castro was back appeared to be "a lot of hot air."
Others said he could still resume some responsibility.
"To me, the key question is to what degree is he coming back?" said Phil Peters, Cuba specialist for the Lexington Institute, a
Washington-area think tank, "Would his comeback be partial, ceremonial? Will he spend two hours in the office checking off on strategic decisions?"
Raul Castro, wearing his typical olive-green uniform and cap, stood stiffly and smiled under the shadow of a statue of Cuban independence leader Jose Marti. He waved as marchers clad in red T-shirts and dark slacks streamed past, clutching plastic Cuban flags, portraits of his more famous brother and banners denouncing U.S. "imperialism."
Although Cuban life is little changed under Raul's leadership, loyalists missed the energy Fidel brought to events such as May Day.
"Everyone wanted to see him, but it's good that he recovers completely. Now the revolution is continuing with Raul," said 68-year-old hotel worker Victor Reyes, who was among the marchers.

Chavez takes over oil fields
BARCELONA Venezuela President Hugo Chavez's government took over Venezuela's last privately run oil fields Tuesday, intensifying a power struggle with international companies over the world's largest known petroleum deposit.
Venezuela's President Hugo Chavez, center, delivers a speech back dropped by a banner that reads in Spanish "Oil Company on its way to socialism", to oil workers Tuesday in Barcelona, Venezuela. Chavez's government took over Venezuela's last privately run oil fields Tuesday, intensifying a power struggle with international companies over one of the world's largest known petroleum deposit.
Oil Minister Rafael Ramirez declared that the fields had reverted to state control just after midnight. State television showed cheering workers in hard hats raising the flags of Venezuela and the national oil company over a refinery and four drilling fields in the Orinoco River basin.
Chavez, a strident critic of the U.S. and a leader of the leftist movement in Latin America, traveled to the refinery for a ceremony with red-clad oil workers on May Day, the international workers' holiday. The military planned a fly-over by Russian-made fighter jets.
While the state takecover had been planned for some time, BP PLC, ConocoPhillips, Exxon Mobil Corp., Chevron Corp., France's Total SA and Norway's Statoil ASA remain locked in a struggle with the Chavez government over the terms and conditions under which they will be allowed to stay on as minority partners.
All but ConocoPhillips signed agreements last week agreeing in principle to state control, and ConocoPhillips said Tuesday that it too was cooperating.
Analysts say the companies have leverage because Venezuela's state oil company, Petroleos de Venezuela SA, cannot transform the Orinoco's tar-like crude into marketable oil without their investment and experience.
"They're hoping ... that as time passes Chavez will realize he needs them more than they need him," said Michael Lynch, an analyst at Winchester, Massachusetts-based Strategic Energy and Economic Research. He predicted most oil companies — with the possible exception of Exxon Mobil — would stay.
Multinationaln pumping oil elsewhere in Venezuela, one of the leading suppliers of oil to the United States, submitted to state-controlled joint ventures last year because they were reluctant to abandon the profitable operations.
Chavez says the state is taking a minimum 60-percent stake in the Orinoco operations, but he is urging foreign companies to stay and help develop the fields. They have until June 26 to negotiate the terms.
An enormous Venezuelan flag was hung between two cranes at the refinery, and smaller flags flew from lamp posts. Red balloons were attached to power lines.
The oil companies, meanwhile, still needed convincing that Venezuela will be a good place to do business.
Chevron's future in Venezuela "will very much be dependent on how we're treated in the current negotiation," said David O'Reilly, chief executive of the San Ramon, California-based company. "That process is going to have a direct impact on our appetite going forward."
BP, Exxon ConocoPhillips all say they're negotiating with Venezuela to determine ownership and compensation for their operations.
Jim Mulva, chairman and chief executive of ConocoPhillips, which has two projects in the oil-rich Orinoco River region and
Mobil and

another offshore, has said he expects discussions to be completed by late June.
tion for its 16.7 percent stake in the Cerro Negro heavy oil project in the Orinoco belt. The majority of that project is owned by Exxon Mobil and PDVSA.
In a conference call with analysts last week after reporting first-quarter earnings, Henry Hubble, Exxon Mobil's vice president of investor relations, said the company expected negotiations to continue "for some time." Hubble declined to speculate whether Exxon Mobil would continue to do business in Venezuela after such discussions are finished.
Chavez "is going to discover that nationalism is one thing, but money talks." Lynch said. "And I don't think
The stakes are high for both sides as Venezuela stands to surpass Saudi Arabia as the nation with the most reserves. If the big oil companies were to leave, Chavez says state firms from China, India and elsewhere can step in, but industry experts doubt they are qualified.
"ConocoPhillips has cooperated with the established transitional committees to ensure a safe, orderly transfer of operations," the company said in a statement Tuesday.
It added, "While discussions between ConocoPhillips and the Venezuelan government are ongoing, agreements have not been reached with respect to ConocoPhillips' future participation in these projects or the compensation the company will receive."
ConocoPhillips' Venezuelan operations account for roughly 4 percent of its daily worldwide production.
BP spokesman David Nicholas said the London-based company also was negotiating compensa-
he's going to be able to get more money out of the Orinoco or the foreign oil companies without being a lot nicer to them."
Pulling out would be damaging for the companies. They have invested more than $17 billion in the projects, now
estimated to be worth $30 billion. Venezuela has indicated it is inclined to pay the lesser amount for taking over control — with partial payment in oil and, some experts suspect, tax forgiveness. Venezuela may still prove enticing because three-quarters of the world's proven reserves are already controlled by state monopolies.
Chavez is also nationalizing electricity companies and the country's biggest telecommunications company, and has threatened to take over private hospitals if they continue raising prices for care.
The campaign has brought popularity for Chavez, who takes to the airwaves almost daily, delivering tirades against the rich, the news media, capitalism in general and his archemen, the U.S. government.

Sale of Dow Jones doubtful
ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK — Rupert Murdoch's News Corp. offered to buy Dow Jones & Co. for $5 billion, but the deal, which would add The Wall Street Journal to Murdoch's global media empire, faces doubtful prospects since Dow Jones' controlling shareholders said Tuesday they would vote against it.
Clinching ownership of The Wall Street Journal would mark a huge coup for the 76-year old media mogul, landing Murdoch the most authoritative voice in the world of business journalism as well as key know-how and personnel as News Corp.gears up to launch a business-oriented cable news channel to rival CNBC, which first broke news of the proposal earlier Tuesday.
The offer of $60 per share represents a huge premium of about 65 percent over Dow Jones' closing share price on Monday. However, Dow Jones said late Tuesday that the Bancroft family, the company's controlling shareholders, said they would vote shares representing just over 50 percent of the company's voting power against the deal.
That leaves Murdoch with the
"Mr. Murdoch has shown a willingness to crush quality and independence, and there is no reason to think he would handle Dow Jones or the Journal any differently," the union said. "Despite our differences of opinion with current management, we strongly encourage the Bancrofts to continue to stand up for the institution's independence, and to walk away from this offer."
The union representing Dow Jones employees, the Independent Association of Publishers' Employees, was harshly critical of the prospect of being owned by Murdoch and issued a statement saying that the bid was opposed by the staff "from top to bottom"
option of making a sweeter offer, or it could open the door to other bidders. When informed of the Bancroft's opposition to his proposal during a live interview with Neil Cavuto on Fox News Channel, which is owned by News Corp., Murdoch said he hoped they would think about the offer, and that his company would be "great guardians" of the stored newspaper, "There's plenty of time," he said.
$56.20 in very heavy volume on the New York Stock Exchange after reaching as high as $58.47. They had traded in a 52-week range of $32.16 to $40.08 before Tuesday's news. News Corp. shares fell $1.01, or 4.2 percent, to $22.99.
Like several other newspaper owners, Dow Jones is controlled by a family through a special class of stock. But unlike the Grahams at The Washington Post Co., or the Sulzbergers at the New York Times Co., the Bancrofts do not have an active hand in running the company.
Dow Jones' shares shot up

The company raised the ire of shareholder advocates two years ago by making changes to its rules that would allow the Bancroft family to maintain voting control even if they liquidate part of their holdings. According to Dow Jones' most recent proxy statement, the family owns 24.7 percent of the economic interest in the company and controls 64.2 percent of the vote.
News Corp.'s main businesses are now in television and entertainment, including Fox News Channel, Fox broadcast network and Twentieth Century Fox movie studio.

NEW YORK — R. Kelly has written a new song, "Rise Up," about healing in the aftermath of the April 16 shootings at Virginia Tech. A gunman killed 32 people and himself on the university's campus in Blacksburg, Va.
"Rise Up" will be available digitally May 15, and 100 percent of the net proceeds from its sale will go to the Hokie Spirit Memorial Fund, said Jive Records, Kelly's record label.
Kelly, 40, wrote the inspirational ballad after watching the events unfold on television while he was on route to a performance, Jive said.
The Hokie Spirit Memorial Fund was created to provide assistance to the victims of the families, as well as grief counseling and other needs for those affected by the shootings.
The lyrics include the lines: "Rise up, when you feel you can't go on, rise up, and all of your hope is gone, rise up, when you're weak and you can't be strong."

Bush vetoes plan to leave Iraq
ASSOCIATED PRESS
OF THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES - SEAL
WASHINGTON — President Bush vetoed legislation to pull U.S. troops out of Iraq Tuesday night in a historic showdown with Congress over whether the unpopular and costly war should end or escalate.
It was a day of high political drama, falling on the fourth anniversary of Bush's "Mission Accomplished" speech declaring that major combat operations had ended in Iraq.
In only the second veto of his presidency, Bush rejected legislation pushed by Democratic leaders that would require the first U.S. combat troops to be withdrawn by Oct. 1 with a goal of a complete pullout six months later.
"This is a prescription for chaos and confusion and we must not impose it on our troops," Bush said in a nationally broadcast statement from the White House. He said the bill would "mandate a rigid and artificial deadline" for troop pullouts, and "it makes no sense to tell the enemy when you plan to start withdrawing."
President Bush talks at the Cross Hall of the White House on Tuesday in Washington, D.C., after he vetoed legislation to pull U.S. troops out of Iraq in a historic showdown with Congress over whether the unpopular and costly war should end or escalate.
Evan Vucci/ASSOCIATED PRESS
Democrats accused Bush of ignoring Americans' desire to stop the war, which has claimed the lives of more than 3,350 members of the military.
"The president wants a blank check," said House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., moments after Bush's appearance. "The Congress is not going to give it to him." She said lawmakers would work with him to find common ground but added that there was "great distance" between them on Iraq.
The legislation amounted to a rare rebuke of a wartime president and an assertion by Democrats that Congress must play a major role in Iraq and the extent of U.S. involvement.
"If the president thinks by vetoing this bill, he'll stop us from working to change the direction of the war in
Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid said Bush has an obligation to explain his plan for responsibly ending the war.
Iraq, he is mistaken," Reid said.
Lacking the votes to override the president, Democrats have already signaled they intend to approve a replacement bill stripped of the troop withdrawal timetable. Determined to challenge Bush's policy, they are turning their attention to setting goals for the Iraqi government to meet as it struggles to establish a more secure, democratic society.
The White House and congressional Republicans have also called for so-called benchmarks, but only if they don't mandate a troop withdrawal or some other major change in war policy.
Bush will meet with congressional leaders — Democrats and Republicans alike — on Wednesday to discuss new legislation.

》 ABORTION LEGISLATION
Bill asks doctors for justification
TOPEKA — Doctors would have to tell the state exactly why they aborted viable fetuses, and state health officials would have to summarize the information in reports under a deal brokered Tuesday by legislative negotiators.
Three senators and three House members agreed to impose the new reporting policy for the Department of Health and Environment as they worked on a compromise version of the year's last spending bill. If the agency did not comply, it would not be allowed to spend any money during the fiscal year beginning July 1.
But as part of the deal, negotiators decided the spending bill wouldn't include related provisions for the Department of Social and Rehabilitation Services and the State Board of Healing Arts, which licenses doctors. The House had approved all three, but the Senate hadn't considered them.
Abortion opponents have long sought more details about why doctors perform late-term procedures, arguing additional data would be useful to legislators and give the public more information. Critics view the new reporting requirements as a step toward limiting access to abortion.
their work, each chamber would consider the compromise spending measure and decide whether to send it to Gov. Kathleen Sebelius, who has the power to veto individual items in budget measures.
She supports abortion rights and vetoed a reporting bill last year, but spokeswoman Nicole Corcoran said, "Governor Sebelius will need to carefully review this proviso if it reaches her desk."
Once the negotiators finished
Senators didn't want to include any of the provisions in the spending bill. Sen. Dwayne Umbarger (R-Thayer), their lead negotiator, argued such policy has no place in the budget — where it would remain in effect only one year, anyway.
He said he agreed on allowing one provision to clear the way for a deal on the entire spending bill. Rep. Sharon Schwartz (R-Washington), gave the same reason for backing off two of the three provisions.
"It's all about compromise," Schwartz said.
State law says that after the 21st week of pregnancy, a doctor can abort a viable fetus to save a woman's life or to prevent "substantial and irreversible harm" to "a major bodily function." Although the law doesn't specifically say that a major bodily function includes mental health, officials have enforced the law as if it did.

Hispanic immigrants demand reforms
ASSOCIATED PRESS
WICHITA — Wrapped in an American flag, Margarita Aguirre passed dozens of small U.S. flags to protesters who were preparing to march down Wichita streets demanding immigration reforms.
The 18-year-old woman seized the microphone of a portable public address system and in Spanish urged several hundred gathered here to march together: "Without shame, let's go. Hispanics united — will never be defeated!"
And with her rallying cry, the group — far smaller than the 4,000 or so that marched here a year ago — slowly wound its way amid a drizzling rain to city hall.
The marchers chanted a refrain from farm labor organizer Cesar Chavez's rallying cry: "Si se puede!" ("Yes, we can." They carried signs reading, "Stop the raids and deportation" and "immigrant rights are labor rights." Speakers urged them not to be afraid.
Among them was Nicolas Vincalay, an illegal immigrant who works as a dishwasher so he can send money back to Mexico to support his wife and seven children, who are still there.
He works in the United States so that his children — ranging in ages from 14 to 32 — can get an education and pursue better careers.
"I don't want them to end up like me," he said in Spanish.
Vinalay said he joined the march to show his support his fellow countrymen.
"I hope the march attracts a lot of attention so that they know that we are still living here," he said.
Even though he is a legal resident, Manuel Irigoyen said he wanted protest to push for a solution to the immigration problem so that his people will no longer be seen as criminals.
Luz Elena Busciaga came to the march with two young children as a

show of support for all immigrants. The woman, who is now a legal resident, came to the United States as an undocumented worker 27 years ago so that her children would have a better future.
"I want to show support for my compatriots, all the Hispanics who came here same as 1," she said in Spanish. "Where we came from there
was no work."
Antonio Hermosillo said he wanted to join with others who, like himself, are undocumented workers.
"I'd like to be able to leave and reenter the United States without being treated like a criminal, like a terrorist," Hermosillo said in Spanish.
Hermosillo, who works as a land-
scaper, has lived in the United States
for 14 years. In that time he has visited Mexico only twice because he fears getting stopped at the border.
Alex Molina, a community activist who has lived here for 35 years, hastily organized the march after finding out Hispanic advocacy groups in Wichita were not planning marches in conjunction with immigration protests nationwide.

DeVito unveils new liqueur

Danny DeVito answers questions during a television news conference Jan. 9; in Pasadena, Calif. DeVito is launching Danny DeVito's Premium Limoncello.
ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK — Danny DeVito is taking an embarrassing moment on ABC's "The View" and turning it into his own brand of limoncello, a lemon-flavored liqueur.
"I knew it was the last seven limoncellos that was going to get me." DeVito said on the show.
The 62-year-old actor-director made a loopy appearance on the daytime talk show last November, saying he'd had a late night out with George Clooney.
DeVito — who was promoting his new comedy, "Deck the Halls" — slurred his speech and used some bad language when joking about President Bush, among other gaffes, during his appearance on "The View."
When Clooney was later asked how much was consumed, he replied: "A lot. ... I got to the point where I was dumping the shots into, ah, you know, a plant next to me and, um, I don't think ... I don't think Danny saw me do that."
DeVito is now launching Danny DeVito's Premium Limoncello, which was unveiled Monday at the Wine and Spirits Wholesalers of America Annual Convention in Orlando, Fla.
His 60-proof liqueur, to be launched later this year, is the "best limoncello you ever tasted," DeVito said.
FUNERAL
Celebrities gather to honor Valenti

Director Steven Spielberg dons a cap as he leaves the funeral of Jack Valenti, the former White House aide and film industry lobbyist, Tuesday at the Cathedral of Saint Matthew the Apostle in Washington, D.C.
WASHINGTON — The stars of Hollywood and Washington came out Tuesday to pay their respects to Jack Valenti, a man at home in the power structures of both cities.
Five days after his death at 85, friends and family members honored Valenti in the Cathedral of Saint Matthew the Apostle, just a few blocks from the White House where he served as assistant to President Lyndon Johnson. Later, as chief of the Motion Picture Association of America, Valenti was a passionate film industry lobbyist, deflecting criticism of Hollywood and fiercely combating threats to the industry such as film piracy.
"If you were Jack's friend, your troubles became his troubles," Douglas said. "When the time' comes for me to be upstairs waiting for St. Peter to see me, I expect Jack to find me and bring me to the big man."
Describing his final visit with Valenti, Douglas said: "He was in a coma. I held his hand and talked to him."
Among the other attendees were actors Michael Douglas and Catherine Zeta Jones and director Steven Spielberg.
In his eulogy, Charles Bartlett — a Valenti friend and Washington neighbor — spoke to the dual nature of Valenti's career, saying
he flew from coast to coast in an attempt to balance popular culture and public favor — serving, in effect, two masters.
The political side of the spectrum was represented by House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer, and Sens. Patrick Leahy, Dianne Feinstein, and John Kerry, among others.
The list of honorary pallbear
ers included big names from all aspects of Valenti's life: California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger and his wife Maria Shriver, television producer Bochco, television host and former Johnson staffer Bill Moyers, investor Warren Buffett and actor Clint Eastwood.
At the service, several mourners read selections from Valenti's memoir, "This Time, This Place," to be published in June.
LAWSUIT
Management firm sues Hewitt Handprint Entertainment claims actress reneged on deal
ASSOCIATED PRESS
LOS ANGELES — The lawsuit against Jennifer Love Hewitt alleging breach of contract reads like a Hollywood treatment.
Hewitt, who stars on CBS "Ghost Whisperer," "plays a young woman with the unique ability to talk to 'earth bound spirits' who seek help in 'resolving unfinished business with the living.'" it reads. "In real life, however, Love Hewitt is having troubles 'resolving unfinished business with the living.'"
Handprint Entertainment LLC,
Hewitt's former management firm,
claims the 28-year-old actress has reneged on a 2002 oral agreement to pay a 10 percent commission on all deals negotiated during the company's tenure.
The contract should include earnings from "Ghost Whisperer," Handprint said in the complaint filed in Superior Court.
Hewitt's publicist, Sarah Fuller, referred all questions about the case to the actress' attorney Bob Wallerstein, who didn't immediately return a message left at his office.

Handprint said Hewitt acknowledged the agreement by paying 10 percent of her earnings from her first season on "Ghost Whisperer; even after replacing the company.

Bono pushes funding for education
ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — Rock, star Bono has tried to feed the world and he's tried to heal the world. Now, he's trying to help some U.S. lawmakers teach the world.
The lead singer of the Irish group U2 — and perennial advocate for anti-poverty programs — on Tuesday joined Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton, D-N.Y., and other lawmakers seeking to expand basic education around the world.
"I can't vote for any of them, but I'm thankful for what they're doing." Bono said from Ireland during a conference call with legislators. "This is why I'm a fan — and an annoying fan at times — of America."
The singer joined Clinton and Reps. Nita Lowey, D-N.Y., and Spencer Bachus, R-Ala., in pushing long-dormant legislation that would add $10 billion to a global fund to provide education to millions of children in Africa and elsewhere.
An estimated 77 million children worldwide — and 38 million in Africa alone — lack access to education up to the sixth grade. Similar data show that the more education a person has, the more money he or she earns and the less likely he or she is to be infected with HIV.
The group argued that a generous effort by the United States for the world's poorest children would go a long way toward improving the country's international standing, and

》 OUR VIEW
United States should keep eye on Russia after Yeltsin's death
The recent death of former Russian President Boris Yeltsin, while perhaps unsurprising given his taste for life's finer things, is nevertheless sadening. However, it gives the democratic nations of the world an important chance to renew the global discussions about the progress of peace and freedom around the globe.
Yeltsin, Russia's only democratically elected leader in its tortuous history, was a study in contrasts. His public zeal and championing of people's rights was inspiring, but his private life and governing style
leaned uncomfortably close to the Soviet style Russian citizens knew all too well. They say that power corrupts, and Yeltsin partially succumbed to that axiom; however, he also remained a proponent of the rights of the everyman.
Yeltsin gave way to Vladimir Putin, who, despite President Bush's testimonials about the integrity of his soul, appears to be far less committed to Yeltsin espoused democratic reforms. He has led a nationwide crackdown on opposition parties, detaining former chess wunderkind Garry Kasparov,
and has steadily increased the Kremlin's influence on Russian media. The most recent move is to require a nearmajority of programming devoted to positive news about the government.
We will no doubt need Russia as an ally as our fight against terrorism continues. Indeed to let such an important neighbor relapse into an apparatchik attitude could be harmful to our efforts at global peace.
It has become quite trendy in these, Fukuyama's end-of-history days, to speak of things in "post-national" terms. Democracy and economic liberalism, the lingua franca of globalization are said to have triumphed over competing ideological forces, ceding all battlements to the power of Western forces.
However, national borders and affairs still matter, especially in the case of a behemoth like Russia. Erosions of personal and media freedoms in a nominal democracy the size of
Russia are troubling, and speak ill of the future of democracy.
It's difficult to underestimate the importance of personal and political freedoms—we in America often take them for granted, devoted to the notion of free speech rights for all. But when we see a unilateral approach taken to restricting freedom in Russia, it reminds us that the mentality, if not the actual apparatus, of the Soviet mindset is in fact not moribund but thriving. This is probably unsurprising, given the czarist nature of Russian history, but should be troubling.
We will no doubt need Russia as an ally as our fight against terrorism continues. Indeed, to let such an important neighbor relapse into an apparatchik attitude could be harmful to our efforts at global peace. We should keep a close eye on the future of Russia, and watch for telling signs of erosion of our own personal freedoms. A KGB worldview in Russia is disturbing; in America, it could be downright frightening.

What should have been the experience of a lifetime, visiting the Sistine Chapel in Vatican City, was damaged by numerous guests' inability to follow directions. Besides snapping away at the centuries-old frescos, they refused to stay quiet. It angered me that they treated the chapel like a tourist attraction and not a church.

I struggled to figure out why, despite being told not to, so many people took photographs and talked inside the chapel. In the end, I decided it had to be a combination of arrogance and the mob effect.
It's an alarming trend in our society — people assuming that they're somehow above the rules. It's considered cool to rebel. It's more fun to be bad than to be good. The signs must refer to everyone except them.
The mob effect draws in those few people who tried to resist temptation. They see the signs and do their very best to behave, but upon seeing other people breaking the rules, they ask, why not them? Why should they behave and get nothing while the miscreants come out ahead? If other people are
The mob effect draws in those few people who tried to resist temptation. They see the signs and do their very best to behave, but upon seeing other people breaking the rules, they ask, why not them? Why should they behave and get nothing while the miscreants come out ahead?
In the Vatican, snapping pictures in the Sistine Chapel has little effect other than showing immense disrespect and causing annoyance. In the real world, societies crumble
when people, en masse, decide that they can't be bothered to behave.
I know stealing cable is wrong, but my neighbor does it and I want HBO so I can watch "Entourage." The sign says no smoking in this area of the restaurant, but I don't want to move. The light turned red but I'm in a hurry, so it's okay if I run it.
This attitude of "me before everything else," be it public health, traffic laws or fine art, will eventually lead to outright moral decay. It may seem small and insignificant, but as it accumulates, it becomes much more damaging. The same disregard a person can show for a painting can become contempt for anything else, including other people. Taking artistic integrity away from dead men can easily morph into stealing more tangible objects from live neighbors. The bridge isn't nearly as wide as some would believe.
Leaving the cacophony of camera clicks and calling voices behind me, I leave the Chapel and collect a souvenir that doesn't involve selfishness: a postcard.

Thought of abortion forces re-evaluation of life
I remember a time when Nickelodeon didn't suck. "Hey Arnold," "Aaahh!!! Real Monsters," "Rocko's Modern Life" and countless other shows ruled my life. Chucky is still my favorite ginger kid of all time (Big Red is a close second). My childhood aspiration was to climb the Aggro Crag.
But one third of my generation didn't get that chance. They will never know what it's like to see "Freddy Got Fingered" or to call their parents after getting administratively disenrolled from physics 211 for not going to the first lab.
Forty-eight million people will
never have the chance to do anything because of a choice.
I've made a lot of dumb choices in my life. Answering "Reader beware: you choose the scare" to "What topping would you like on your pizza?" immediately comes to mind. If only I had known anchovies on the pizza would suck every bit of moisture from my body, I would have requested a specific topping.
Having pictures of aborted fetuses might not be the best way to change someone's mind on abortion. But it should make our generation think if our best friend or future spouse was
the one pictured on the side of those trucks.
When walking on Wescoe Beach, imagine one third more people walking around. When thinking about childhood friends, imagine a third again as many of them and the memories there could have been. When considering an abortion, imagine taking the training wheels of your baby's bicycle, imagine his or her first prom.
Abortion may be legal, but that doesn't make it right.

Having moved to American television sets,
the food, clothing and music in Japanese anime
has changed to fit our culture
BY ALISON CUMBOW

rant Moran has seen the culture of Japanese anime merge between countries on a first-hand level.
Japanese are changing cultural aspects to entice a wider international audience," Moran said.
Moran and Ken Duer were two of the four speakers at the anime event in the Robert J. Dole Institute of Politics on April 25. The speakers discussed the
cultural aspects behind Japanese anime in relation to the American market.
"Thirty years ago, the Japanese animation business would never have attempted to produce a product specifically to be appreciated in the United States," Moran said. "There was no intersection between the two countries."
Now, the thought of the two businesses working together is a reality.
Moran, who has been a writer, story editor, producer and executive in television animation for many years, said an example of changing cultural aspects was by not changing
the name of "Viewtiful Joe" when it came from Japan to the United States. Television anime is a lucrative business and frequently spreads from country to country. Many feel that what once was culturally enriched Japanese television anime has become a Westernized version of its previous self.
SIMON C. TORRES
"Anime is a cultural window into modern Japanese life, ideals, emotions, beliefs and even history. But because anime is highly cultural and not American, American companies butcher a great deal of that," Alex Byers, a University of Kansas graduate and avid fan, said.
Marla Keown/KANSAN
There are essentially two ways to bring Japanese anime to the American audience. One is through DVDs, which the intense fans buy. The second is through television. If an American broadcasting company decides to buy a series from Japan it then has its team, such as Moran, rewrite the dialogue.
Ken Duer, President of Phuuz Entertainment, and Grant Moran, anime producer discuss anime and its cultural acceptance in America on April 25 in the Dole Institute of Politics. After discussing Japanese anime, Duer and Moran presented "Kiba", an anime pilot that follows 2ed, who gets transported to a completely different world of nature instead of machines, in an overly crowded technological world.
"My job is to create words in the Japanese anime characters' mouths that they are saying in their native language to English. My words have to fit into the way their mouths are already moving." Moran said.
"American TV anime is highly edited for the consumer and the consumer's weary parent. The voice style is also changed, which alters the muance of who the character really is, as well
Many fans are unhappy with this process and claim that much more than just the words are changed.
as the dialogue, to cater more to the American thought process and ways of speaking," Byers said.
The most common demographic for television anime is boys 6 to 12 years old. In the United States, this group of children is very different than those in Japan.
"Young Japanese boys are more interested in sports and comedy series, whereas in the U.S., the boys want to see action and conflict," Ken Duer, the second main speaker at last week's event, said.
"Japanese anime has brought more than just story telling to American pop culture. It has brought culture, down to the food the characters eat in the show, to how they are dressed and even to the theme music,
known as J-Pop," Duer said.
story line, and I find it relaxing and a good break from normal life," Matt Schott, Olathe sophomore and member of the KU Anime Club, said.
Many people, including KU students have found the phenomenon added to their list of interests.
Schott also said that Americans have Westernized Japanese anime so that many people could get the chance to enjoy the art form.
Moran seconds this idea and explained that anime isn't about hearing exact translations across the boards. It's about keeping the message the same.
"I think that anime is something that just about anyone could be interested in," Drew Howland, Topeka freshman and member of the KU Anime Club, said.
"Anime is a cultural window into modern Japanese life, ideals, emotions, beliefs and even history."
"I like anime because it is enjoyable.
Often, an anime show will have a great

shows," he said.
"I try to create the American equivalent to the experience that the Japanese have had after watching an anime series. I write the dialogue as directly a translation that I can, and my goal is for the American audience to experience exactly what the Japanese have: a love for the
Whatever the reason for the American spin on anime, Japanese television anime eliminates any limits of cultural awareness. It gives everyone more than enough reason to wake up early on Saturday mornings for a little cartoon surfing.

The Kansas softball team is following a similar script to the one it has used the past two seasons.
The jayhawks (32-19-1, 7-9) travel to Wichita State (32-26, 16-8 MVC) today for a double-header with a feeling, as coach Tracy Bunge put it, of déjà vu.
"When it comes down to the end of the year we've been in the same position the last two years," Bunge said.
Heading into the Wichita State game last season the Jayhawks had a 27-24 overall record and a 6-10 in the Big 12 Conference
The team was seventh in the Big 12 at this point of the season, where the current team stands, and last year Kansas won the Big 12 Championship.
This year's team returns 10 letter winners from last year's team, which knows what it takes to repeat and improve on what it did last year.
"What you do the last 10-15 games of the year is important and our returning players understand that," Bunge said.
The Jayhawks will meet in-state rival Wichita State for the 75th time, with the Jayhawks holding a 60-14 all-time advantage against the Shockers.
The Shockers are fourth in the standings for the Missouri Valley Conference.
"We can't afford to look over this game," senior pitcher Kassie Humphreys said.
Bunge also stressed that this week was no cakewalk for the Jayhawks, who are winners of five of their last six games.
Offensively, the team is getting back into the swing of things by posting an average of almost four runs per game. Defensively, the team gives up an average of just over one run per game during vic-

By the end of last June, Kyle Murphy had almost had enough with baseball.
He had hit just .153 in 58 games as Kansas' part-time center fielder and the thought of devoting his entire summer to baseball was no longer appealing. After 10 games with the Hays Larks of the Jayhawk League, Murphy packed his bags and headed back home to Beloit, Wis.
"I was playing fine, but I was just really burnt out after last year," Murphy said. "I had so much stress built up, it was almost like catching a second wind, like I was just able to relax and put things behind me."
Rather than putting up with the rigors of summer league baseball, Murphy spent the offseason working on his swing with his friend and former minor leaguer Kevin Burns and playing occasionally with a local team.
During his time away, Murphy regained confidence in his swing and learned to take a more relaxed approach to baseball. His catharsis has carried over into his senior season as he's transformed from an offensive liability to one of the most consistent hitters in Kansas' lineup. Always a weapon roaming center field, Murphy has molded himself into a promising pro prospect on pure desire.
Senior center fielder Kyle Murphy leads Kansas with 56 hits and 12 stolen bases. He is tied for the team lead with 39 runs scored and 82 total bases.

When Murphy returned to Lawrence in the fall, he found a renewed passion for baseball and had a successful season. From the onset, he decided to enjoy the little things about baseball rather than worry about statistics.

COMMENTARY
Rush makes right decision to declare
BY KAYVON SARRAF
KANSAN SPORTS COLUMNIST
KSARRAF@KANSAN.COM
COLUMBIA
Much of the buzz around campus this week seems to be that Brandon Rush is making a mistake by entering the NBA draft because he is not a lock for the first round.
The fact is that Rush should keep his name in the draft even if there is a chance that he falls to the second round and loses out on a guaranteed contract.
Take a look at last year's draft, considered to be the weakest in recent memory because of the inclusion of an ineligible class due to the NBA's new age limit of 19. Last year's second-round draftees would likely not even be selected in this year's stacked draft. Of the first 13 picks in last year's second round, 11 are on NBA rosters and all of these 11 are making more than $400,000 per year. These are the players that Rush will be competing for roster spots.
NBA general managers know what Rush can bring to the table after two years as the leading scorer for a Kansas squad that receives as much national exposure as any team outside the state of North Carolina. At 6-foot-6, Rush can defend NBA wings, rebound well for his position and make open shots. This type of player will always find a spot on an NBA roster. Rush would be the safe pick when a team is faced with choosing him or an unknown international player.
Being drafted in the second round does not mean that a player has to ride the bench either. Last year's 42nd pick, former Texas Longhorn Daniel Gibson, started 16 games for the Cleveland Cavaliers and remains a key contributor to a team still contending for an NBA championship.
Looking back at the 2005 draft, we see similar results. Nine of the first 11 players drafted in the second round are on NBA rosters, with players like Monta Ellis, the 40th selection to Golden State, maintaining an important role with playoff teams.
Another year in college would likely not help Rush's draft stock a great deal. At best, he would be a late first-round pick next season. At almost 22 years old, Rush does not ooze potential like a Julian Wright does. He is already fairly polished and other than ball handling, which is not something that will magically appear in one offseason, he does not have a lot of room to improve. He would lose out on a year of NBA earning potential, valued at least $400,000.
Rush is in a different situation than those early second-round selections not on NBA rosters. Three out of the four were international players, entering the draft relatively unknown to NBA teams.
Fans sometimes fail to realize that coming back to school for another season and being the

Yankees prospect newest addition to injured list
ARLINGTON, Texas — Phil Hughes was working on a no-hitter in the seventh inning of his second major league start when a hamstring injury cost him a chance to make history.
The Yankees' prized prospect is expected to miss four to six weeks, a sour end to an otherwise encouraging night for the last-place club. New York responded to criticism from owner George Steinbrenner in a big way Tuesday with a 10-1 rout of the Texas Rangers.
The 20-year-old right-hander, considered one of the top prospects in baseball, was cruising along in a dominant performance when he winced and grabbed the back of his left thigh after throwing an 0-2 breaking ball to Mark Teixeira with one out in the seventh. Hughes was removed with a 9-0 lead after his 83rd pitch.
Hughes was called up from Triple-A Scranton to fill a spot in New York's injury-depleted rotation. Mike Mussina (hamstring), Carl Pavano (forearm) and Jeff Karstens (broken right leg) are on the disabled list. Chien-Ming Wang also missed the first three weeks of the season with a hamstring injury.
New York went 9-14 in April and finished the month 6 1/2 games behind first-place Boston in the AL East. That roused Steinbrenner to issue his first public remarks of the season Monday, at once throwing his support behind manager Joe Torre and rebuking the $195 million team for its record.
Pitcher gains composure after rough start
CLEVELAND — Rocked for three homers in the first inning, C.C. Sabathia buckled down to stay unbeaten and Jhonny Peralta had a career-high five RBI for host Cleveland.
After enduring a season-opening month of snow, postponements and travel, Cleveland began May with a comeback
victory, scoring nine consecutive runs to win for the eighth time in nine games.
Sabathia (4-0) found himself down 3-0 five batters into the game. But the left-hander settled in and held the Blue Jays to one hit over the next five innings, retiring 16 of the final 17. He walked none and struck out nine in six innings.
Oakland defeats Boston in 10th inning comeback
BOSTON — Dan Johnson doubled home the winning run and Oakland stopped surging Boston.
The Red Sox had won four of five games and began the day with the best record in baseball but wasted a 4-2 lead and another strong performance by Curt Schilling.
Relief pitcher Jonathan Papelbon allowed a tying two-run homer by Travis Buck in the ninth
Oakland scored the winning run off Brendan Donnelly (0-1) on back-to-back doubles by Mike Piazza and Johnson. Justin Duchscherer (2-1) pitched the ninth and Huston Street worked the 10th for his sevent save.
Devil Rays defeat Twins, Cuddver leaves with injury
ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. — Sidney Ponson pitched seven impressive innings and Michael Cuddyer drove in two runs for Minnesota before leaving with an injury.
Ponson (2-3) gave up five hits. Both of his wins this season have come against the Devil Rays.
The top of the sixth ended on a strange play when Cuddider lost his balance rounding second base on Justin Morneau's two-out single and did a forward roll before being out by third baseman Ty Wigginton. Cuddider left one inning later with a bruised back.
Minnesota's Torii Hunter doubled in the seventh, extending his career-high hitting streak to 16 games.
Rays starter Edwin Jackson (0-4) allowed six runs — four earned
and five hits in 1 1-3 innings.

SWIMMING AND DIVING Three newcomers join six recruits from fall season
The Kansas swimming and diving team added three more recruits Tuesday to an already loaded list of newcomers for the 2007-08 season.
The spring batch of signees consists of swimmers Joy Bunting and Lisa Dugopolski and diver Erin Mertz. Bunting, a high school senior from Greenley, Colo., is expected to make an impact right away for the Jayhawks.
"Joy is the best breaststroker we've ever recruited," coach Clark Campbell said in a press release released Tuesday.
Dlugopolski comes to Kansas from Mequon, Wis., where she earned All-state honors four years in a row as a swimmer for Homestead High School.
Mertz hails from Omaha, Neb, and dives for the Husker Stars Diving Club in Lincoln. She placed seventh on the three-meter board at junior nationals.
The trio, along with the six fall recruits, join a Kansas squad coming off strong finishes in last season's Big 12 and NCAA Championships.

"Going into the season, I knew I needed to just throw all that out the window and be able to go in every day and have fun, enjoy putting my uniform on when I got to the field, enjoy going out and shagging fly balls and enjoy myself," Murphy said.
Baseball didn't instantly become all fun and games for Murphy. He worked religiously to improve himself as a hitter and an outfielder.
For help in those areas, he turned to former Jayhawk center
fielder Matt
Baty. Baty was a
four-year starter
for Kansas
and, from him,
Murphy learned
how to better
analyze the game.
"I learned a lot about the game and the game inside the game," Murphy
one incident. Baty was one of Murphy's biggest supporters during his struggles at the plate and, although Baty works in Dallas for the Big 12 Conference, the two still talk over the phone at least once a week.
Murphy speared Baty on the play, busting up his own face and lacerating Baty's spleen, which kept Baty out for several weeks.
---
"We always joke around that I destroyed his good looks because he got a big of scar from his nose down and how he beat me up because I spent so much time in the hospital." Baty said.
It could be said that Baty gave Murphy a crash course lesson on playing outfield when the two collided trying to catch a line drive to left-center against Lipscomb last season.
Good friends at the time of the collision. Baty said the two became best friends following
Come January, it was clear that even with Baty's help, Murphy still had to produce on offense to be in the starting lineup.
said. "He was a big guy on making the pitcher work when he was on the bases and there's a lot of aspects where he wasn't the most talented guy, but he got the most out of his abilities. The one thing I learned is that regardless of ability, you can be the best you can be by just being smart and intelligent about playing the game."
"I had so much stress built up, it was almost like catching a second wine, like I was just able to relax and put things behind me."
At the Kansas baseball media
KYLE MURPHY Center fielder
he'd be the happiest coach in the country.
baseball media day, coach Ritch' Price said Murphy would get every opportunity to be the team's starting center fielder because his glove was so valuable. If Murphy managed to hit 250, Price said
"We wanted him to be our center fielder," Price said. "He's so special with the glove in his hand. In my 29 years of coaching, he's the best defensive outfielder I've ever coached."
Considering the season Murphy has put together, Price must be absolutely giddy.
After an 0-for-3 day in the season opener, Murphy went on a tear, batting .389 in his next 10 games from the ninth spot in the order. But even when Price struggled to find a reliable leadoff hitter, he was hesitant to throw Murphy into the role.
"I was afraid if I moved him to the top of the lineup, he'd see more breaking balls, he'd see more change ups, he'd get pitched a lot tougher than he would in the nine hole and then he might start to struggle." Price said.
Price eventually did move Murphy to the top of the order and it appeared his fears had come to fruition as Murphy went 0-for-10
in his first three games as Kansas' leadoff hitter.
Then Murphy broke out, going 1-for-2 with three runs against Tabor, followed by a 3-for-5 performance against nationally ranked Arkansas with a home run, five RBI and two runs. Since, he's produced like the leadoff hitter Price envisioned when he recruited Murphy at Indian Hills Community College.
Murphy has upped his batting average 162 points from last season to .315, good for the second best average on the team. He leads the Jayhawks with 56 hits and 12 stolen bases and is tied for the lead with 39 runs scored and 82 total bases.
But without his new outlook on baseball, that first hitless afternoon could have gotten the best of Murphy, stunting his senior season.
"Now when I go 0-for-4, I look at that and compare it to last season and realize it's not a big deal." Murphy said. "I went 0-for-4 several times over last year."
Even when Murphy does go hitless at the plate, he remains an asset on the field.
With his speed and ability to read hits off the bat, center field is where fly balls have gone to
die for Kansas' opponents. At the same time, his cannon for an arm has amassed a team-best six outfield assists this season, forcing base runners to think twice about testing him.
Murphy's prowess as an outfielder even impressed his peers.
From the fans
Kyle Murphy's relentless work habits haven't gone unnoticed by his peers. The quotes below provide a glimpse into Murphy's dedication to becoming a better player:
"He is special," Tucker said. "You can't necessarily coach what he brings to the table. He's naturally athletic, he's gifted with a great arm and he's got the work ethic to go along with it. He's got the whole package."
— Ritch Price,
Kansas head coach
"I'm really pleased and really happy for him. He's a very, very hard-working young man and there's probably no player in America who's spent more time working on his swing individually."
"The guy can just straight go
"He sets the bar for everybody else, especially being a senior. Coming early, staying late and taking pride in what he does has all paid off for him. I don't think anybody could be as happy as we are of his progress and what he's done this year."
— Kevin Tucker, Kansas assistant coach
"There's nobody who can match his desire and his love for the game."
"He's naturally athletic, he's gifted with a great arm and he's got the work ethic to go along with it. He's got the whole package."
— Matt Baty,
former Kansas center fielder
out and get the ball," Baty said. "He has the best hands I've seen out in the outfield. He gets to balls you just dream of getting to."
Baty did radio commentary for Kansas' series at Texas Tech two weekends ago and said Murphy was the best center fielder held ever played with.
KEVIN TUCKER Assistant coach
--playing professional baseball was his ultimate goal, but the thought was inconceivable at times. Then again, he's already gone further in baseball than he ever thought possible.
"Being in a major program like this was something that I wasn't really sure was possible," Murphy said. "I came to junior college where
N o w equipped with the offensive production to complement his defense, all of Murphy's hard work may end up paying off in the form of a professional contract.
we were buying our T-shirts and cleats. Coming to a program like this, I was really blown away with how we were treated and the things we were given to perform each day"
The consensus among Murphy's coaches is that this June, Murphy will be packing his bags again. But this time it will be to begin his professional baseball career.
"He's put up some good numbers offensively and defensively, I think he could jump right in at that level," Tucker said. "If somebody gives him a good opportunity, he's really going to make them happy."
However, Murphy is enjoying his last few weeks as a college baseball player. He'll worry about the summer when the time comes.
"There's a good chance I'll be able to do that," Murphy said, "but that's something that's in the future and right now I need to stay focused on the present of winning some games and making the Big 12 Tournament."

Kansas looks to sharpen skills in nonconference match-up
Preparing for the Swedes
BY ALISSA BAUER
The Bethany Swedes, Kansas' fourth NAIA opponent this season, enters tonight's match-up as the toughest one yet.
Coach Ritch Price has stressed the importance of games like these. Being in game situations against live pitching gives each team the chance to stay sharp, despite not being in the same division, and allows him to get his younger guys some extra playing time.
The competition the Swedes will likely provide may be Price's favorite part.
Kansas (22-26, 8-13 Big 12)
The Jayhawks are soaring after
picking up their first Big 12 series victory at Oklahoma last weekend. Out of the conference cellar, Price said on Sunday that his team now controlled its own destiny, and a victory tonight would keep them on the right track.
Senior center fielder Kyle Murphy and sophomore catcher Buck Afenir are on pace to make sure that happens. Each tallied four hits and four RBI against the Sooners last weekend, hitting safely at least once in all three games.
Bethany College (33-14, 18-6 Kansas Collegiate Athletic Conference) Despite falling to No. 10
Wichita State 13-6 on Monday, the Swedes also enter tonight flying high. Saturday, the Swedes defeated Friends University to clinch the KCAC regular season title.
In their last time out, against WSU, shortstop Keenan Dukes homered in the second at bat of the game and finished the evening 2-3. Third baseman Shaun Ravenscraft also held his own against the in-state powerhouse, hitting 2-4 with threeRBs.

Brewers defeat Cardinals
Mers
Jeffrev Phelos/ASSOCIATED PRESS
Milwaukee Brewers' Geoff Jenkins, left, and Tony Gwynn leap up in celebration of their 12-2 victory over the St. Louis Cardinals in a baseball game at Miller Park in Milwaukee on Tuesday.
ASSOCIATED PRESS
MILWAUKEE — J.J. Hardy tied a career-high with four hits, Tony Graffainino hit a three-run homer to cap a seven-run sixth inning and the Milwaukee Brewers beat St. Louis Cardinals 12-2 on Tuesday night.
Milwaukee scored 11 runs in two innings.
Braden Looper and St. Louis were cruising with a 2-0 lead on Brewers starter Ben Sheets in the fifth. But the Cardinals, playing in their second game since the death of reliever Josh Hancock, fell apart again.
For half the game, St. Louis, losers of four straight, showed all the signs of being ready to play after being soundly beaten 7-1 the night prior in an emotional return to the field.
But with two on and one out in the fifth, Looper (3-2) faltered. Bill Hall laced a two-run double top left-center to tie the game.
Then the mistakes started.
Albert Puils, who extended his hitting streak to 10 games, cut off the throw home and had Hallung up going to second, but no one was there to cover the base.
The next batter, Johnny Estrada, grounded to second baseman Adam Kennedy, who made a poor throw to first that Pujols couldn't scoop.
Geoff Jenkins then singled to center on the next pitch for the go-ahead run. Kevin Mench added a sacrifice fly to give the Brewers a 4-2 lead.
It only got worse from there as Milwaukee, which came into the game tied for the best record in the National League, scored seven in the sixth, sending 10 men to the plate.
The defense let down reliever Randy Flores, too.
Sheets (2-2), who had to be pulled from his last start after three innings with a strained groin, started the rally by ending an 0-for-38 streak with a single and Rickie Weeks doubled to end Looper's night.
Left fielder Chris Duncan misplayed a drive by J.J. Hardy, who equaled a career high with four hits, to score Sheets and Weeks. Prince Fielder drove in a run, and Jenkins, who added a solo home run in the eighth, hit a grounder off Pujols' foot for another error to load the bases.
After an RBI ground out by Mench, Tony Graffanino hit a three-run homer off reliever Brad Thompson.
Sheets didn't need to come back out for the seventh and finished giv-
St. Louis manager Tony La Russa dropped David Eckstein from hitting leadoff into the eighth position in an attempt to jump start his Cardinals, who he described as "fuzzy" and "out of focus" the entire month.
Early, it seemed to work. Eckstein walked in his first at-bat and Looper, who has been the Cardinals best pitcher with Chris Carpenter (elbow) on the disabled list, drove in a run with a single in the second.
Duncan added a deep solo home run in the third to give St. Louis a 2-0 lead.
St. Louis, which started last sea
son 17-8 in April on the way to winning the World Series, came into this May tied for last place in the NL Central.
A private funeral for Hancock's family is being held Wednesday, and the team will join a public memorial service to be held Thursday in Tupelo, Miss.
Notes:@ Only two pitchers had more appearances before their first start than Looper's 572, Todd Jones (632) and Chuck McElroy (603). He now has surpassed both of them in career starts with six. Weeks returned to the lineup after missing two games with a bruised index finger on his throwing hand. Cardinal RHP Chris Carpenter threw about 60 pitches to a group of batters before the game, and will be re-evaluated on Wednesday. Sheets has had 26 hits in his seven-year career.

Save secures Ranger's victory
NEW YORK — This no-goal got the New York Rangers even with the Buffalo Sabres in more ways than one.
Henrik Lundqvist stopped Daniel Briere's shot just short of fully crossing the goal line with 17 seconds left, and the Rangers hung on for a 2-1 victory over the Sabres on Tuesday night to square the Eastern Conference semifinal series after four games.
Both teams had to wait out a lengthy video review for the second straight game. On Sunday, Rangers defenseman Karel Rachunek lost a goal when league officials in Toronto used a replay to determine he kicked the puck in.
The game went to double overtime, but a major controversy was avoided when the Rangers eventually won.
"I guess it was really close," Briere said. "I think they misjudged the one last game. The Rangers' goal should've been a goal. For the sake of all, I hope they made the right call because that wouldn't be good — two games in a row, two critical goals disallowed."
This time the call went New York's wav.
Jaromir Jagr and Brendan Shanahan scored power-play goals, and Lundqvist made 29 saves to get the Rangers back in the series'.
The best-of-seven matchup now shifts back to Buffalo, where the Sabres — the NHL's best team in the regular season — took a 2-0 lead. Now they will be feeling the heat from a nervous, title-starved town unwilling to accept anything less than the first Stanley Cup in franchise history.
Game 5 is Friday night, with Game 6 back in New York on Sunday.
Buffalo picked up the pace right after Ales Kotalik cut the Sabres' deficit to 2-1 just 33 seconds after Shanahan's goal. The Sabres stormed for the tying goal during the final 10 minutes and outshot New York 11-4 in the third.
The pressure is back on the Presidents' Trophy winners, who have trailed in the third period in every game but the opener. After scoring an NHL-high 308 goals during the season, the Sabres have been held to five in three games following a 5-2 opening win.
"We played good for 50 minutes, and the last minutes were a headache," Jagr said. "It was awful. We were lucky we won."
"In the playoffs there is a lot less chances available and Lundqvist has been really good, also." Briere said. "We just have to keep crashing and we have to keep going hard the way we did in the third period."
All the questions before the series were whether the Rangers could slow down Buffalo's four fast lines. Now two goals have been enough to win consecutive games.
Lundqvist dived onto his stomach with 17 seconds left and stopped Briere's stuff attempt with his right pad as the puck slid on the goal line but didn't fully cross.
"I believe I've seen a replay where it's in," said Sabres coach Lindy Ruff, sounding just like New York Islanders coach Ted Nolan in the first round. "We've had some good reviews."
For the first time in five close goal calls in these playoffs, the Sabres didn't benefit from a video review.
"I just felt I was so late," Lundqvist said. "I read the puck, but I think it bounced a little bit."
Jagr scored his fourth of these playoffs and 71st in the postseason in the second period. Shanahan doubled New York's lead in the third.
"You are not always going to have things go your way. It's not always going to be 4-1." Miller said. "It's certainly not going to always be that you have the lead. You're going to have to battle and claw and scratch.
Shanahan made it 2-0 by showing the patience and poise of a 38-year-old, three-time Stanley Cup champion. He waited for Miller to make his move, and when the goalea dropped to his right side, Shanahan put the puck past his outstretched pads and to make it 2-0.
Kotalik answered quickly after Shanahan's goal, but it wasn't enough. Ryan Miller was sharp again in making 26 saves, allowing two goals for the fourth straight game.
The Sabres hadn't lost consecutive games since dropping three in a row from March 7-10. But the Rangers earned their ninth straight win at Madison Square Garden and 12th in 13 games.
For the second straight game, Jagr and the Rangers took advantage of a penalty in the opening minute of the second period. Jagr, who also scored in Game 3, deflected Michael Nylander's shot off defenseman Teppo Numminen and past Miller 45 seconds into the frame.
Before the announcement of Shanahan's sixth goal of these playoffs and 58th in the postseason, Kotalik scored.
"Nobody said it was going to be easy"
The Sabres had power-play chances in the final 8 1/2 minutes of the period that ended with them still up a man. With 17 seconds remaining in Marcel Hossa's stick-holding penalty, Rangers defenseman Marek Malik went off for holding Derek Roy.
Politics interfere with pro-am play
ASSOCIATED PRESS
CHARLOTTE, N.C. — It looked as though Tiger Woods and Phil Mickelson got off easy.
GOLF
But the Rangers held off Buffalo to even the series.
Both cases cried out for punishment. Both players were covered by the rules, although one was subject to interpretation. And in both instances, even though the circumstances were entirely different, there was outrage from their peers.
No wonder there's a perception of a double standard on the PGA Tour.
Woods hit a 9-iron on the ninth hole at Firestone last year that bounced onto and over the clubhouse roof, landing in the service entry where a kid delivering crunchy cream pies scooped up the ball and drove away.
Woods got a free drop, because the clubhouse was not marked out of bounds.
Ernie Els and Sergio Garcia watched this development unfold and were disgusted that Woods could get such a break. He escaped with bogey and went on to win the tournament two days later.
Last Wednesday, Mickelson missed his pro-am at the Byron Nelson Championship. Mickelson had been in Little Rock, Ark., for a charity event, and severe thunderstorms grounded his private plane Tuesday night.
Under PGA Tour policy adopted three years ago, anyone who doesn't take part in the pro-am doesn't get to play in the tournament. But the policy was tweaked last year to allow for "serious personal emergencies," and tour officials deemed that an act of God — the weather in this case — kept the world's No. 3 player from getting to the course.
He was allowed to play and tied for third, his best finish in two
"It seemed, from the outside looking in, very, very fish," Jim Furryk said Tuesday. "Not being well enough versed on the rules, I don't know if the right call was made or not. But I understand why the red flag went up."
months.
One reason for the red flag was name — Mickelson, the star attraction at a tournament otherwise deplete of stars.
The other reason was because of a pro-am policy that was designed to crack down on absenteeism, but instead has been filled with cracks the tour has been trying to patch up for the last two years.
In 2005, Chad Campbell wanted to play the 84 Lumber Classic — the tournament even had his wife sing at one of its functions — but he asked out of the pro-am Wednesday to attend his grandmother's funeral. The tour made him choose between the pro-am and the funeral, and Campbell withdrew from the tournament.
Bob Tway asked out of a pro-am at the BellSouth Classic last year he and his son, Kevin, could attend the funeral of Bob Johnson, the teenager whom.Tway's son had beaten in the final of the U.S. Junior Amateur. Tway was using a one-time exemption to keep his card, missed the funeral and then missed the cut.
Wes Short Jr. wanted to skip out on a pro-am because his father was about to have quadruple bypass surgery, but he had to choose between the pro-am and spending time with his father.
The tour has tweaked its policy with every incident.
It started out that a player only could miss a pro-am and still play in the tournament if he was on site
with an injury and had a note from his doctor. After the Campbell episode, it was changed to allow players to miss pro-ams if there were a death in the immediate family. After the Tway and Short incidents, the tour added "serious personal emergency."
That was broad enough to cover a myriad of issues — such as a plane being grounded by thunderstorms.
No one was more bemused by the Mickelson ruling than Retief Goosen, the poster boy for this policy.
The two-time U.S. Open champion flew across eight time zones, from London to Los Angeles, to play in the Nissan Open two years ago. He overslept Wednesday morning and arrived 20 minutes late for his pro-am time at Riviera.
His partners were on the first green. He was out of the tournament.
Imagine his surprise when he flipped on the TV last week in time to see Mickelson talking about his round at the Byron Nelson Championship with a subtitle on the screen that said, "Missed his Wednesday pro-am."
"Obviously, they abandoned that rule." Goosen said.
He wasn't aware it had been altered over the last couple of years, and he was curious about the latest loophole.
"So he must have had a serious personal issue," Goosen said.
Yes, well, he was doing a charity event in Arkansas and storms kept his plane from leaving Tuesday night and early Wednesday.
Ultimately, Goosen concluded that it was good for the tournament that Mickelson played.

Rockies recall Quinanilla;
send Barnes to Triple-A
SAN FRANCISCO — Infielder Clint Barmes was optioned to Triple-A Colorado Springs on Tuesday by the Colorado Rockies, who
recalled indefiler Omar Quintanilla from the minor league team.
Barmes had been called up two weeks ago when second baseman Kazuo Matsui went on the 15-day disabled list with back spasms. Barmes appeared in 10 games for the Rockies, going 2-for-20.
Quintanilla hit .255 with six RBI
in 17 games for Colorado Springs. He started 12 games at shortstop and three at second base.
Matsui was hitting .361 with three RBIs and had five stolen bases in five attempts when he went on the DL on April 15.

MLB Carpenter taking recovery one workout at a time
MILWAUKEE — Cardinals ace Chris Carpenter, sidelined since opening day with an elbow injury, threw against teammates on Tuesday in another step in his rehab.
Carpenter said he felt fine after the workout. He will be re-evaluated on Wednesday.
"We'll see what happens tomorrow," Carpenter said of his outing that lasted about 60 pitches over three simulated innings. "If
everything's perfect tomorrow, we'll go from there."
Manager Tony La Russa said they won't plan for Carpenter's next step until they check him out on Wednesday, but La Russa was encouraged when he watched Carpenter's performance.
"Impressive," La Russa said. "That was an extensive workout today."
Carpenter, a 15-game winner last year, went on the disabled list on April 10 because he had swelling in his right elbow a day after giving up five runs in
the opener. Carpenter said he wasn't worried about building stamina in his most recent performance.
"I was just being competitive," Carpenter said.
Skip Schumaker was one of the batters that Carpenter faced and said Carpenter was focused, even if Schumaker thought he had a little bit of help inside Miller Park.
"He's tough to hit anyway, (but) without the lights, it's really tough," he said

ASSOCIATED PRESS
SAUGET, Ill. — Three days before he was killed in a highway wreck, St. Louis Cardinals pitcher Josh Hancock was involved in a predawn accident that police treated routinely.
Officers who talked with the 29-year-old reliever moments after the front of his sport utility vehicle was clipped by a tractor-trailer in this village known for its factories and strip clubs found Hancock lucid. He did not appear under the influence of alcohol, Police Chief Patrick Delaney said Tuesday.
No sobriety or breath tests were given to Hancock and no tickets were issued, Delaney said. The SUV was too damaged to drive home.
Hancock died early Sunday when the rented Ford Explorer he was driving slammed into a flatbed tow truck on Interstate 64 in St. Louis. Autopsy results had not been released, and toxicology tests were pending.
Hancock was at a stop sign at about 5:30 a.m. Thursday, just across the Mississippi River from St. Louis, when he inched his vehicle out a bit into the intersection, presumably to see around big trucks and other vehicles that frequently park near there, Delaney said.
A passing tractor-trailer traveling around the posted speed limit of 45 mph nicked Hancock's vehicle and sheared off the front bumper, the chief said. Neither Hancock nor the trucker, 33-year-old Richard Lehn of Keyesport, ill., was injured.
Hancock "was very fortunate," Delaney said. "If he were inched up another inch and that truck would have hit, it would have been much more serious accident."
The accident happened on Illinois Route 3 off Yellow Brick Road, named for its proximity to the Oz nightclub. The intersection is also near a liquor store and small-scale truck stop.
Managers of Oz told police Hancock had not been at that club that night, Delaney said.
"The officers said they felt Josh
was not impaired whatsoever," Delaney said. He said Hancock did not get preferential police treatment as a ballplayer, noting the responding officer "didn't know Josh Hancock from John Doe."
While waiting for a cab to take him home after the accident in
Sauget, Hancock told another officer he disliked night games followed by day games. The pitcher said he often drove around to make himself tired enough to rest, the chief said.
"He said how he hated — he used that word — to play day games after a night game, that he had trouble sleeping and was out driving around." Delaney said.
Hours later, Hancock showed up late at Busch Stadium for a day game against the Cincinnati Reds. He insisted he thought the starting time was later and had overslept in a new bed.
A memorial service for Hancock is set for Thursday in Tupelo, Miss. The Cardinals are chartering a plane that will get them there in time for a lunch with the Hancock family.
A message left at Lehn's home Tuesday was not immediately returned.

Unseasonably cold April causes decline in hitting, pitching

Ryan Howard had just three homers, Carlos Delgado only one and Alfonso Soriano none at all: Hitters were stuck in an April ice age, with home runs and scoring in the major
leagues dropping to their lowest levels since 1993.

When they did play, attendance was up 4.8 percent, from 28,955 to 30,356. And much of baseball was turned upside down.
Mark Buehrle of the Chicago White Sox threw a no-hitter on the 18th day of the season. Last year, the only no-hitter was pitched by Florida's Anibal Sanchez, and it didn't take place until Sept. 6 — the first in the major leagues since Randy Johnson's perfect game in May 2004.
Still, some sluggers have defied the trend. The Yankees' Alex Rodriguez hit 14 homers, which tied the April record Albert Pujols set last

that start renewed speculation that manager Joe Torres' job may be in jeopardy, and while George Steinbrenner backed him Monday, the owner also said his $195 million team's start was "clearly not acceptable."

The Los Angeles Angels were slated to start former Cy Young winner Bartolo Colon (2-0) in Butler's first game Tuesday night.

The Royals also placed first baseman Ryan Shealy on the 15-day disabled list. Shealy strained his left hamstring while trying to score from second base Monday night.
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Billy Butler, Kansas City's first-round draft pick of 2004, was recalled from Triple-A Omaha on Tuesday and told he would start immediately in left field.
One of the Royals' top hitting prospects in years, Butler was batting .337 in 25 games for the Omaha Royals. He turned 21 on April 18 and was the 12th-youngest player, and seventh-youngest position player, to make his major league debut with Kansas City.
Butler won the Texas League batting title at Double-A Wichita last year with a .331 average. He will join two other rookies in the starting lineup, third baseman Alex Gordon and shortstop Tony Pena Jr.
"I'm nervous," he said. "It's one of those things. You start thinking a lot of stuff. I made it to the big leagues. You've just got to step on the field like it's another game."
Butler said he first thought somebody was kidding him when he got the call about 10 a.m. Monday to head for Kansas City.
Manager Buddy Bell, whose team started the night with the worst record in the majors at 8-18, said he hoped Butler would bring "a spark" to a lethargic offense.

"Really, he was our best offensive player in spring training and you have to consider this kid's got a real good feel for the strike zone," Bell said. "He's very disciplined, which is uncharacteristic of a young hitter to begin with."

Defensive end released after eight seasons, 128 games

Chiefs say bye to Eric Hicks
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — The Kansas City Chiefs released defensive end Eric Hicks on Tuesday, three days after taking defensive lineman Claude "Turk" McBride in the second round of the NFL draft.
Hicks, who made the Chiefs' roster as an undrafted free agent out of Maryland in 1998, has appeared in 128 games with 104 starts during nine seasons.
>> NFL
He became a full-time starter in 1999, when he appeared in all 16 games for Kansas City, but has seen his role diminish in recent years with the emergence of Jared Allen and Tamba Hali.
Allen has been suspended by the
NFL for the first four games next season, for two DUI convictions, and the decision to draft McBride
— who can play inside or outside
— followed the team's vow after last season to start a youth movement.
Hicks ranks fifth in team history with 44.5 sacks, with a career-best 14 sacks in 2000.
He also ranks 12th in tackling with 574, including 284 solo stops, with a single season best of 118 tackles in 2003.
in 1999 with a heart condition that required several operations.
Hicks and his wife, Erica, have been especially active in charity work in the Kansas City area, founding the Hicks for Hearts Foundation in 2001 to assist families of children with congenital heart defects.
Their daughter, Shayla, was born
"Eric has been an excellent football player for the Kansas City Chiefs and a superb representative of this organization in the community these past nine years," Chiefs president and general manager Carl Peterson said in a statement announcing Hicks' release. "Eric is one of the best college free agents that we have signed since 89."
Other releases and trades — such as the one that sent return man Dante Hall to St. Louis for a fifth-round draft pick — could follow. Coach Herm Edwards said after last season that the Chiefs could have as many as 20 new players this fall.

》 COREY LIDLE PLANE CRASH
Crash cause still disputed
BY DEVLIN BARRETT ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — New York Yankees pitcher Cory Lidle and his flight instructor did not realize their misjudgment of a U-turn until it was too late to avoid their fatal New York City plane crash, investigators said Tuesday.
They had several options in how they handled that maneuver, the probe found.
Both were killed when the Cirrus SR-20, owned by Lidle, slammed into a high-rise apartment building. The NTSB declared Tuesday that the cause was "inadequate judgment,
In presenting their findings, National Transportation Safety Board members said they still didn't know whether Lidle or his flight instructor Tyler Stanger was piloting the plane in the Oct. 11, 2006, crash.
planning, and airsmanship" by Lidle and Stanger.
The Lidle and Stanger families are suing the plane's manufacturer, and their lawyer criticized the NTSB's conclusions.
"It's not surprising; the Safety Board always blames the pilot in an accident," said the lawyer, Todd Macaluso. The families fault the plane's steering mechanism, though the NTSB found no evidence of system, structure or engine malfunction.
Investigator Lorenda Ward told board members that the turn above the East River could have been made safely if the plane had begun the turn farther east or banked harder in the turn.
NTSB Chairman Mark Rosenker said the pilots had a third option: If they had risen briefly into restricted air space above the Manhattan skyline, "they'd be alive today to explain
why they had to do that."
The global positioning device and cockpit display unit were too badly damaged to provide any information. There was no cockpit voice recorder because they are not required in small, privately owned planes.
As the plane drifted toward Manhattan, the pilot sought to correct the turn but instead lost altitude, possibly because the engine stalled, the investigator Ward said.
NTSB investigators said the pilots apparently did not factor in a 13-knot wind, pushing the plane toward Manhattan as it turned.
"The increase in bank angle was too late." Ward said.
Lidle, a 34-year-old right-hander, died days after finishing the baseball season. Investigators have had surprisingly little hard evidence to go on in reviewing the accident that killed him.

KU graduate among victims
"Our condolences go out to Leslie's family and friends," she said.

Ballew was one of two victims shot and killed Sunday in the parking lot of the Ward Parkway Mall.
Leslie Noble Ballew graduated from the University in May 1997. She was 33.
A University of Kansas graduate was a victim in Sunday's Ward Parkway Mall shooting in Kansas City, Mo.
One friend fondly remembered Ballew from their years spent together at the University. Lora Farrell lived with Ballew in a house
at 12th and Kentucky streets with four other roommates while they were students. The two originally met in seventh grade band at Blue Valley Middle School where Ballew played the clarinet. After losing contact, they reunited when Ballew answered an ad that Farrell and her roommates put out seeking another roommate.
"We thought it was kind of funny later that we ended up living together," Farrell said.
Kansan staff writer Kyle Carter can be contacted at kcarter@kansan. com.
An honors student who worked in Strong Hall during her time at the University, Ballew enjoyed traveling. Farrell said she studied in Ireland one summer and even applied to National Geographic for a boat trip around the world offered by the magazine.
"She was incredibly intelligent, and she was definitely the most mature in the house," Farrell said.

Detective plays Rose's emergency call for jury Strange behavior fuels questions
BY ERICK R. SCHMIDT
Jurors heard from survivors and began watching a four-hour taped interrogation of suspect Jason Allen Rose on Wednesday as the Boardwalk Apartment trial entered its third day.
Detective Troy Squire took the stand and explained that Rose's behavior led him to be questioned even before the fire was ruled arson.
Rose is accused of starting the October 2005 fire in his Boardwalk apartment building that killed three and injured 18 others. He is charged with aggravated arson, three counts of murder and seven counts of
Three Spanish-speaking residents who lived at Boardwalk Apartments told their stories through a translator Wednesday. Maritza Pastrana told the jury that she had seen Rose in the walkway where investigators believe the fire to have started.
aggravated battery.
During the taped interrogation, which was filmed four days after the blaze, Squire played back audio of Rose's call to emergency dispatch the night of the fire. The dispatch officer asked Rose what the problem was.
Detective Troy Squire took the stand and explained that Rose's behavior led him to be questioned even before the fire was ruled an arson. Squire was one of two officers who interviewed Rose on the tape.
"Fire," Rose said.
When Squire asked Rose if it was his voice on the recording, Rose said it was not.
"I remember saying my name. I said my name," Rose told Squire.
Squire played the audio again, and again asked Rose if it sounded like him.
"A little bit."
Squire went on to ask Rose about his actions the night of the fire. Rose said he got off work at Taco Bell, filled his car up with gas and went home. At home, Rose said he watched television and smoked a few cigarettes before commotion outside his apartment drew his attention to the fire. Squire testified that inconsistencies and "interesting" information was what led officers to consider Rose as a suspect.
Rose originally went to trial in February, but it was declared a mistrial after the prosecution found a new witness and tried to admit her. Hearings will resume Thursday with the conclusion of the taped interrogation at 9 a.m. The trial is expected to last up to two weeks.

ODD NEWS Unknown wild animal scares N.J. residents
TRENTON, N.J. — Residents are used of rural parts of New Jersey are used to seeing wild turkey, deer and even an occasional black bear. But the possibility of another kind of wild animal on the prowl has some people worried.
Residents of the community of Vineland reported seeing a large black animal with a cat-like long tail walking through the fields and woods during the weekend.
"I knew by the size that it was not a house cat. It wasn't a tiny dog, it looked like some kind of wild cat," said Zoe Paraskevas, who
Felicia Fiocchi said she spotted something in the field behind their house on Sunday.
photographed it Saturday. "I just gill chills. I said 'Oh, my God!'"
"I can't tell you if it was a panther, but I can tell you that it wasn't a domesticated house cat," said Fliochi. She's worried about the possibility of a dangerous cat roaming the woods and fields where her four children sometimes play.
HUTCHINSON — Egrets are beautiful to behold with their snowy-white feathers and long, curving necks, but that doesn't count for much when thousands of them settle in Hutchinson each spring with noise, odors and other nuisances.
A wildlife officer visited the area three times during the weekend and found nothing to indicate a panther was in the area, said Darlene Yuhas, a spokeswoman for the state's Department of Environmental Protection.
However, the migratory birds are protected by federal law so efforts to coexist with them require some imagination.
Egrets bring noise, odor, nuisance to Kansas town
Police Chief Dick Heitschmidt and Lt. Troy Hoover have been on "egret patrol" in recent days, tying shiny ribbons to trees, placing owl decos in places where the birds
roost and occasionally firing flares to scare the birds away. They also plan to deploy floating balloons.
"The chief and I really dressed the place up." Hoover said of one neighborhood. "Last year, they just destroyed that area."
It's challenging work. After clearing the egrets from one area Monday night, the officers found them roosting in another part of the city, and by the next morning the birds had moved on to still another neighborhood.
During a heat wave last summer, many young egrets were killed when they wandered onto busy streets in search of water.

Platforms earn scores for successes, failures
BY ASHLEE KIELER
Students will receive their final grades in a few weeks, but student body president Jason Boots, Plano, Texas, senior, and vice president Melissa Horen, Overland Park senior, received their final grades for the platforms they ran during elections last spring. Boots, Horen and the rest of Student Senate worked throughout the year trying to accomplish the platforms.
ADVISING
rework the ARTS form.
Boots and Horen focused their advising platform on revamping the ARTS form and the availability of advisers. They suggested changes to the advising and information services staff.
"It is an extensive system with many access points across campus," Lopez said.
Kim McNeyle, assistant dean of the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, said new advising specialists were added after being approved in last year's budget cycle.
The platform called to increase advising for juniors and seniors with undeclared majors. Juniors and seniors are not required to see an adviser as freshmen and sophomores must do. Juniors and seniors receive a hold on their accounts until they declare majors and meet with advisers.
Lopez expects the task force to present its report to Denise Stephens, vice provost for information services, by the end of the semester.
An advising subcommittee of faculty, staff and students continually talk about advising issues," McNeley said.
SAFEBUS
Allison Lopez, public relations and marketing manager for information services, said a task force was charged with evaluating what was needed to
The increase in advisers and revamped ARTS forms were not Senate initiatives, but Senators provided their input.
thumbs up
SafeBus was a contested issue in Student Senate this semester. A bill to place a referendum on the April election ballot failed in senate committees. The bill asked students if they would approve a $4 increase per semester to the SafeRide fee to create SafeBus. Enough students signed a petition to get the referendum on the ballot. The SafeBus referendum passed at elections.
A subcommittee of the transportation board will work through the summer to make SafeBus a reality in the fall.
Tom Cox, Shawnee junior and head of the subcommittee; said the summer work would revolve around purchasing cameras and contracting security officers for the buses.
"We have heard from a few contract providers to run the buses," Cox said.
Cox said SafeBus should be running within the first few weeks of school in the fall.
FINANCIAL AID
Senate also worked on cleaning up the financial aid Web site to make it easier to navigate.
Boots said two ideas were stressed most when looking at revamping the site.
"We stressed the searchability of scholarships and grants and the access to other financial aid options." Boots said.
Boots said the Senate looked at other schools' financial aid Web sites as models, including Iowa State University.
Ian Staples, Student Legislative Awareness Board director, helped write a bill for the State Legislature to provide tuition assistance for veterans.
The bill was not seen by the Legislature. Boots said he was optimistic it would pass next year.
BIKE LANES
Boots and Horen ran on a platform focused on putting a bike lane down the center of Jayhawk Boulevard.
In early November the parking commission approved Professional Engineering Consultants P.A. to study traffic and parking on Jayhawk Boulevard.
The parking commission met to hear the results and recommendations of the survey.
Mike Beery, PEC consultant, did not recommend placing a bike lane down the middle of jayhawk Boulevard even if parking is removed from the street.
Beery's report recommended removing parking from the boulevard, restricting driving to transit, service and deliveries vehicles and allowing bicycles to travel down the boulevard without restrictions.
Donna Hultine, director of parking and transit, said the recommendation came as a long-term possibility.
"The commission is looking to the future, but nothing will be changing for next year," Hultine said.
✓
TECHNOLOGY BORROWING
The technology borrowing platform would enable students to check out laptops with a variety of software and digital and video cameras to complete course work. Students would be able check out the electronics during the day and overnight.
The funding to provide the electronics was secured by the Parents Campaign, a fundraising group.
Kent Miller, assistant dean of libraries, said a location where the electronics would be available has not been decided, but technology staff will be available at the location for help students.
Miller said the technology borrowing would start in the fall, as long as all the specifications for equipment were made. He hopes to begin buying equipment in July.
"We'll start with small amounts and add based on demand," Miller said.
WIRELESS INTERNET
Expanding wireless Internet for campus passed through Senate on Jan. 31. Funding was secured in the form of a student fee increase of $5 per semester for the next five years. The University agreed to match student funding and pay for maintenance and operations.
Strong Hall, Wescoe Hall and Fraser Hall are expected to be the first buildings to receive wireless expansion.
Back work for the expansion began this spring. The expansion, with a price tag of $2.6 million, has an estimated completion date of December 2008.
STUDENT WEB SITES
The redevelopment of the student organizations' Web site included online registration for student groups and an easier way to access organizations.
Earlier in the semester Aaron Quisenberry, associate director of the Student Involvement and Leadership Center, said online registration was not a Senate initiative, but their input was helpful.
Senate proposed a resources page on the center's Web site. The resources page would help groups learn about obtaining a bank account, funding and how to reserve a room in
the Kansas Union. The site remains under construction.
AFFORDABLE TEXTBOOKS
不满意
Creating affordable textbooks started out as a strong campaign platforms but faltered toward the end of the semester.
Staples authored a bill for tax-free textbooks that was introduced to the Kansas Legislature.
The bill did not make it out of the committees.
Boots said legislation was unwilling to give many tax exemptions this year, but there was a possibility the bill would be seen during the next legislative cycle.
A textbook task force, made up of students, faculty and staff from the University, looked at ways to decrease textbook costs on campus.
The task force worked on getting instructors to declare their book choices early so that more used books could be purchased. Declaring choices early would also increase the amount of money students receive for books during buy-back.
Hannah Love, Dodge City junior and textbook task force member, said the task force launched a large public relations campaign to get the word out to instructors.
Love also authored a bill for funding from Student Senate to create a textbook library where students could check-out textbooks for shortterm use. The bill did not go through Senate.

Gen. Richard B. Myers, former chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, speaks Wednesday evening at the Dole Institute of Politics. He is a native of Kansas City, Kan.
Myers: Military needs reform
》DOLE LECTURE
BYTYLER HARBERT
Gen. Richard B. Myers, a Kansas City, Kan., native, said because he came from Kansas, he liked simple analogies and he had one regarding terrorists.
"How many of you have been to Chuck E. Cheese's?" Myers asked while speaking on campus. "You know that whack-a-mole thing?"
He said the military policy right now was like the arcade game because the military tries to whack at the terrorists as they pop up, and that the method had been somewhat effective.
He said a better policy would be to "take off the back of the machine" by changing the ideology of men and women who want to join al-Qaida through a strategy of diplomacy, education and information supported with the help of U.S. allies.
Myers, who retired in 2005 as the 15th Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, gave the Dole Lecture on Wednesday night during the program of the semester at the Robert
J. Dole Institute of Politics. Myers served in the U.S. Air Force for 40 years and was chairman during the Afghanistan and Iraq invasions.
His term as chairman began only a few weeks after Sept. 11, 2001, and he said even though the national debate about security had recently been focused on the Iraq War, he said the largest safety issue the U.S. currently faced was the threat from violent extremism.
"It's an enemy that has a long-range plan," Myers said. "They're small, but they're undeterred.
terrorist organizations like al-Qaida commit violent acts to create an environment of fear, Myers said. He said some businesses are just now recovering from the effect of Sept. 11.
"That's how they want to work," he said. "When we're afraid we don't think logically."
Myers said President George W. Bush usually came into his office, "bouncy of step and quippy." He and the president even made bets about football games between the
University of Texas and Kansas State University, where Myers graduated in 1965.
But after seeing the president the day after Sept. 11, Myers said he had, "never seen a more somber person."
The president told Myers and others that day that he might make some decisions in the coming years that people might not like or could cost him another term as president, Myers said. He said he was moved that the president was that determined.
Having traveled extensively to visit with thousands of troops throughout his career, Myers said the friends he had made around the world of different religions and persuasions all want generally the same thing.
"They want a secure and safe environment for their children and grandchildren to grow up in," he said.

Natural gas field needs new plan
BY DANAE DESHAZER
The natural gas field, the largest field in the western hemisphere, covers a nine-county area in Kansas and Oklahoma, supplying gas to 2/3 of the homes in Kansas.
Gas companies need to reevaluate ways to recover natural gas from the Hugoton natural gas field, according to a recent study by the Kansas Geological Survey.
Natural gas is methane used to heat homes and power gas stoves. With more than 12,000 wells, Hugoton has seen a decline in gas production throughout the years, resulting in the survey's inquiry.
"People were thinking there is no more left, because the gas was slow to come out," said Martin Dubois, the survey's project manager. "It has slowed down so much that they thought maybe there is not much left to produce. The approach to get it out must change."
Geologists predicted 65 percent of the field's natural gas had been used since its discovery in 1922. However, Dubois worked to find where exactly the remaining 35 percent was located.
Dubois and his colleagues at the survey created a three-dimensional virtual rock model of the reservoir system in order to discover the gas concentration within the rocks levels.
Dubois said the type of rock in the field was important, because each rock has a different ability to contain and release gas.
A rock's ability to contain and release gas depends on its pores. The rocks that had already released all of its gas had large pores, with high permeability, meaning a high rate of material release.
The remaining gas was stuck in low-permeable rocks with numerous smaller holes, causing the gas and the traditional wells that retrieved the gas to work slower and less efficiently.
Dubois said the wells in place would produce 50 to 80 more years worth of gas, but it might be more of a cost to the companies.
"Unless you change the types of wells you're drilling, you won't get it out any faster," Dubois said. "You

have to change something to produce gas more efficiently and economically"
Saibal Bhattacharya, petroleum engineer for the survey, helped with validating the reservoir model. He said a major achievement of the study was the discovery that two fields in the area weren't working independently of each other.
He said that for years, the Hugoton field and Panoma field were thought to work separately. This affected the Kansas Natural Resource Council's rules about wells and drilling. People who owned land in Hugoton could not profit from Panoma and vice versa. Bhattacharya said the survey's study showed that the two fields were interconnected.
Gas from each field was coming out of the other, causing a combined piping effect. The council created new rules according to the study, which changed the way people were allowed to drill.
Dubois said the 35 percent of gas still left could be anywhere from 1 trillion cubic feet of gas to 4 trillion. To put it in perspective, Dubois said during the winter a typical house used 15 million cubic feet of gas a month. This costs about $10, depending on the company.
Bhattacharya and the six coauthors of the report are compiling all data and information for a printed release next year.
"As a small group that we were, we pulled off this huge project," Bhattacharya said. "I'm not trying to pat myself on the back, but it didn't take 20 people to do this. It was a big task, and we were able to do it."
The co-authors include Geoffrey Bohling, Alan Byrnes, Timothy Carr and John Doveton, all scientists at the geological survey.
Ten industry gas companies provided the money for the research.

Iran official faces charges
Former negotiator arrested, accused of espionage
BY NASSER KARIMI
ASSOCIATED PRESS
TEHRAN, Iran — Iranian authorities have arrested the country's former nuclear negotiator, an ally of President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad's predecessor and key rival, and he reportedly could face an espionage charge.
The hard-line president, meanwhile, insisted his country will not retreat "even an iota" on its nuclear program.
The Iranian state-run news agency said Hossein Mousavian was arrested Monday in the capital, Tehran.
Iran did not officially release any details about the specific charges against him. But the semiofficial Fars news agency — which is deemed close to the elite Revolutionary Guards — said Mousavian could face espionage charges.
"The probable charge of espionage activities may be raised against him," the agency quoted an unidentified official as saying. "Mousavian was arrested because of connections and exchange of information with foreign elements."
Fars said Mousavian was summoned to the prosecutor's office Monday, where he was arrested and taken to the notorious Evin prison in Tehran.
"Mousavian's case is under initial investigation and interrogation, and his release is unlikely," the agency said.
Mousavian was a member of the Iranian nuclear negotiating team until 2005 and before that served as iran's ambassador to Germany. He was a close ally of former President Akbar Hashemi Rafsanjani.
Ahmadinejad, who defeated Rafsanjani in the last presidential elections, replaced the nuclear negotiating team, including Mousavian, when he assumed power two years ago.
Rafsanjani, a high-ranking cleric, holds seats on two of Iran's most important government bodies and is considered Ahmadinejad's main political rival. Seen as a more pragmatic conservative than
Ahmadinejad, Rafsanjiad has taken a somewhat more conciliatory stance toward the U.S. and its allies over Tehran's nuclear program.
If Iran's supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.
by one side or the other" in Iran, he said. "This is one of those tactical gambits."
Cases such as Mousavian's usually involve violating national interests or state security interests or treason. These cases are heard before Iran's Revolutionary Courts and carry sentences up to life in prison.
"It may be an attempt by the supreme leader to not let them get too powerful."
was behind Moussainian's arrest, it could be a sign that Rafsanjani and his allies were gaining ground on hard-liners, said Jon Wolfsthal, an international security expert at the Washington-based Center for Strategic and International Studies. Wolfsthal noted that Khamenei tried to maintain the balance between the two sides.
Jon Alterman, director of the Middle East program at the center, said drawing conclusions about the arrest was complicated because was difficult to see inside the Iranian regime. He said it might simply be one more step in a slow dance for power.
"It may be an attempt by the supreme leader to not let them get too powerful," he said.

Warned Wednesday that Iran would "cut off the hands of invaders" if attacked.
Speaking to a crowd in Kerman, about 650 miles southeast of Tehran, the president said Iran would
continue to resist attempts to curtail development of nuclear technology for peaceful, electric-generating purposes.
"Our nation will not give up its right even an iota," he said. "In the important nuclear issue, implementation of justice is the demand of Iranian nation. Our nation says, 'laws for everyone, rights for everyone.'"
His comments came ahead of another U.N. Security Council deadline for Iran — this one in late May — to halt uranium enrichment program or face more sanctions.
The Security Council first imposed limited economic sanctions on Iran in December, then strengthened them in March over Iran's continued refusal to suspend enrichment.

Four area men accused of sex crimes
BY ANDALE GROSS ASSOCIATED PRESS
KANSAS CITY, Kan. — Four area men have been accused of Internet sex crimes against children. One is a 41-year-old Ottawa man accused of traveling to Tennessee to have sex with someone he thought
was a minor he had met over the Internet.
Another is a 40-year-old man accused of operating a file-sharing program in Overland Park that allowed others to download
"This is evidence of how serious this problem is." Melgren said Wednesday at a news conference at the Robert J. Dole Federal Courthouse.
"This is evidence of how serious this problem is."

Melgren said parents should be more aware of their children's computer habits. He said teens often post information about themselves online without realizing it can make them easier targets for child predators.
"We need to know what our kids are doing and teach them not to engage in conversations with people they don't know and not to post all their vital stats," Melgren said. "They might be doing this for peer-to-peer, friendly reasons. But there are people out there who will take advantage of that."
"More law enforcement has been trained and know what to look for, and more community people are aware," he said.
Melgren said it was getting easier for law enforcement officers to investigate and prosecute Internet sex crimes.
Jeff Lanza, a special agent with the FBI office in Kansas City, Mo., said the U.S. attorney's office and other agencies have to continue to work as a team if they want to stay ahead of the Internet crime problem.
"It's an epidemic of predators out there." Lanza said.

She said studies had shown that only about 5 percent of people older than 65 live in nursing homes.
The School of Social Welfare began a program this year to encourage its master's in social work students to specialize in aging-related work with the help of a three-year grant from the John A. Hartford Foundation, an organization that aims to ensure care for the nation's older population.
VerMaas said she applied for her job with Home Helpers partly because she was a nursing student, and she wanted to make sure she was fit to enter a caregiving profession. The job has helped her feel more confident in her career choice, she said.
Julie Mettenburg, director of the Lawrence Home Helpers franchise, agreed that elderly caregiving jobs could be a good career step for students of social work, nursing or other caregiving occupations.

French presidential debate sees sparks
2007 LE DEBAT 2007 LE DEBAT
S. ROYAL N. SARKOZY
00:00 00:00
French Socialist Party candidate Segolene Royal, left, faces conservative front-runner Nicolas Sarkozy, right, minutes before their only televised debate in Paris on Wednesday. Some estimates said the live debate could draw more than 20 million viewers. Segolene Royal will face Nicolas Sarkozy in the presidential runoff on May 6. French journalists Arlette Chabot, second from right, and Patrick Poire d'Arvior attended the debate.

Far right, far left candidates bring increased interest
BY JOHN LEICESTER ASSOCIATED PRESS
PARIS — The two dynamic and very different candidates to be France's next president faced off Wednesday in their first and last televised debate of the campaign, a highly anticipated encounter before the weekend vote, and sparks flew almost from the start.
Socialist Segolene Royal, struggling in her quest to become France's first woman president, immediately went on the offensive, criticizing conservative Nicolas Sarkozy's record as a minister in President Jacques Chirac's government before he became a candidate for the presidency.
Sarkozy, leading in the polls and looking to get through the debate unscathed, was scrupulously polite and did not rise to Royal's baiting. He addressed her as "madame" and, after she repeatedly interrupted him in a discussion about policing and crime, said, "Will you let me reply?"
Royal wore a dark jacket; Sarkozy a suit and tie. But their differences were more than one of style. An immediate point of disagreement was France's 35-hour work week
— a landmark reform for Socialists but decried by business leaders as a crippling brake on companies.
Sarkozy wants to get around the 35-hour week by making overtime tax-free to encourage people to work more. He described the shortened work week as a "monumental error" and noted that no other country in Europe has followed France's lead.
Royal defended the 35-hour week as a form of social progress
and asked why the government of which Sarkozy was part had not gotten rid of the legislation if it was so opposed.
Again, Royal cut Sarkozy off during the discussion.
"Will you let me finish?" he asked.
"No," said Royal.
"Ah," said Sarkozy
The live duel by candidates could draw more than 20 million viewers in a nation re-energized by its hunger for change after 12 years under Chirac.
"It's the culmination point of the campaign," former President Valery Giscard d'Estaing, who supports Sarkozy, said on RTL radio. He
said the debate would be "decisive," and credited his own performance in a debate with Socialist Francois Mitterrand for his victory in 1974.
Mitterrand won the presidency the next time around in 1981.
Sarkozy and Royal were the last two candidates standing after the April 22 first round in which Sarkozy won 31.2 percent and Royal
trum taking up the remainder.
Royal's underdog bid has gathered some momentum recently.
She outdid Sarkozy on Tuesday
"I don't think the French choose a president on the lone impression that they'll have after a two-hour debate."
NICOLAS SARKOZY Conservative candidate
had 25.9 percent, with 10 rival candidates across the political spec-
tion on Tuesday, with a larger rally in Paris than one he had over the weekend. Also Tuesday, far right nationalist Jean-Marie Le Pen, who placed fourth with 4 million votes, urged his supporters to
abstain in the election Sunday Polls show his voters were more likely
to back Sarkozy than Royal, and it could cut into Sarkozy's support if they stay home.
Sarkozy, who has held a lead in the polls since January, sought to calm speculation before the show-down that it could be decisive.
"I don't think the French choose a president on the lone impression that they'll have after a two-hour debate," he told France-Inter radio Wednesday before the television appearance
The last head-to-head presidential-race debate, pitting Chirac against Socialist Lionel Jospin in 1995, drew 17 million viewers. Chirac won the first of his two terms that year.

VETOED LEGISLATION
BY DAVID ESPO ASSOCIATED PRESS
Congress wants goals set for Iraq government
WASHINGTON — Congress failed to override President Bush's veto of legislation requiring the withdrawal of U.S. troops from Iraq on Wednesday, a defeat for anti-war Democrats that triggered immediate talks on a new measure to fund the conflict.
"Make no mistake, Democrats are committed to ending this war," said House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif). "We hope to do so in unison with the president of the United States," she said on a day of carefully scripted political drama at both ends of Pennsylvania Avenue.
The vote in the House was 222-203, 62 shy of the two-thirds majority needed to override a veto. With few exceptions, Republicans stood fast with Bush in the wartime clash.
"I'm confident we can reach agreement," the president said moments after the vote as he sat down at the White House with leaders of the Democratic-controlled Congress.
The veto vote hewed closely to party lines, with 220 Democrats and two Republicans in favor of overriding the president, and 196 Republicans and seven Democrats voting to sustain him.
signaled they were ready to make concessions such as jettisoning the troop withdrawal timetable in order to gain Bush's signature on a replacement measure. There was early talk in both parties of setting goals for the government of Iraq to meet as it strives to develop a self-defending, democratic society.
Democrats flashed defiance, yet
KANSAS CITY SHOOTING
Suspect may have also killed neighbor
"It might be a stretch to say that he was living there," said Detective Alane Booth of the Kansas City Police Department. "But it would be reasonable to say he left and came back and had taken advantage of some of the things she had that he didn't have, like food, water and electricity."
Logsdon. 51, suspected of killing two people in the parking lot of Ward Parkway Center on Sunday and injuring a police officer who had stopped him earlier, was shot to death by police at the mall. Seven other people were injured.
Patricia Ann Reed, 67, was found dead in her home about two hours before police stopped Logsdon for driving Reed's car. Police have not said Logsdon killed Reed, but Booth said the evidence was pointing in that direction.
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — David W. Logsdon used the home of his next-door neighbor for days while her dead body lay on the floor before he drove her car to a shopping mall and opened fire, killing two people.
BY MARIA SUDEKUM FISHER ASSOCIATED PRESS
"We haven't technically proved it yet," Booth said. "But it's more probable than not that he's the person responsible for her death."
Booth could not confirm a report in The Kansas City Star that Logsdon used a semiautomatic rifle that belonged to Reed's late husband in the rampage at Ward Parkway.
Police said Reed had been beaten to death but they were also still awaiting test results to determine how long Reed had been dead, but it was likely a few days, Booth said. Reed was last seen by her family April 21.
According to Logsdon's sister, Kathy Cagg, Logsdon had a history of mental illness, and was taken for evaluation in October 2005, but had been released after six hours.
Logsdon had also made a little living space for himself above the garage, where he kept books about weapons, survival and magic, Booth said.
It's likely Logsdon had been using Reed's home because of the deteriorating condition of his own home, where Logsdon had to improvise because the electricity and water were cut off after he did not pay the bills.
"He had been using one of those jumbo plastic square containers of kitty litter that was in the center in the bathroom floor, and it was apparent that he was using that to defecate in," Booth said.
Logsdon's house, which was where he grew up, was unkempt and a "walk back in time," Booth said. But police have not found evidence of a suicide note or anything to explain his actions.
Ward Parkway Center scheduled a public candlelight vigil at 7 p.m. Thursday at the mall.

Veto reveals dangerous conviction
Using the veto pen for just the second time in his tumultuous presidency, President Bush rebuffed Tuesday the Democratic offering for his requested emergency war spending bill. The veto, while expected, is nevertheless revealing for its bold demonstrations of the greatest flaws of the Bush administration.
In his post-veto remarks, Bush called the Democratic plan, with its binding deadlines for military withdrawal, a "prescription for chaos and confusion," as if it would throw a wrench into the smoothly running and well-oiled machine that is Iraq. His bold pronouncement that setting a date for withdrawal is "setting a date for failure" was a darkly revelatory glimpse into the modern Bush mindset, where outside opinions and ideas are regarded with outright hostility.
The biggest problem with Bush has never been a dearth of intellect, as many critics would have you believe. Bush is deceptively smart, bearing a Rove-created cloak of folksiness to appeal to his salt-of-the-earth constituency. The most significant Bush flaw has been unwavering and stubbornly blind faith in his choices, and a refusal
to acknowledge potentially erroneous consequences of his actions. Point to whichever root cause you like - a privileged upbringing, his born-again faith, an abundance of self-righteousness - but the mindset is poisoning the war debate.
Bush's terra firma is steadfast determination, always embracing the perception that he is resolute in
The most significant Bush flaw has been unwavering and stubbornly blind faith in his choices, and a refusal to acknowledge potentially erroneous consequences of his actions.
his beliefs. But in the forum of military execution, especially when facing an adaptive insurgency, continuous evolution of ideas and strategies is paramount. By shutting down talk of timelines before the notion is even given serious consideration, Bush is again putting on stark display his aversion to compromise when we need it more than ever.
At what point does the devolution in Iraq become too much for Bush to handle? A dangerous sign is his apparent unwillingness to consider the political fallout, which has always been the top priority for the Bush White House, taking precedence by far over policy matters.
By signaling that he will ignore the overwhelming public opinion against his surge and refusal to adjust tactics, Bush is exhibiting an uncomfortable character trait for a president: total conviction of the righteousness of a cause in spite of the will of the people.
The Democratic bill is by no means perfect, but it is the early form of an Iraq exit strategy. The imposition of even the minor of benchmarks — which Bush laughably says he will accept, if they are nonbinding — on the fledgling Iraqi government is a signal that we will no longer accept chaotic mediocrity in this war.
The two sides must reach a compromise.

COMMENTARY
Tuition increases not so bad when considering expenses
It would be nice if I logged into Enroll and Pay after summer break to find tuition at The University of Kansas had not increased for the fall semester. But let's be honest. That dream is not worth entertaining.
On the surface, I seem like a traitor to my fellow students because I support the University's yearly tuition increases. But I am willing to be called that or worse if it helps to preserve the University's reputation and enhance the value of my degree.
Unfortunately, the University is not powered by the hopes and dreams of its students. It's funded
by cash. And unlike the wishful thinking of naive students, cash is not abundant at the University.
I work at the KU Endowment Association. My job there as a student caller is to persuade alumni to donate money to the University. Through my job I have learned that tuition and fees paid by students only make up 16 percent of the University's budget and the state only provides 24 percent.
First, when the University does

Secondly, the amount of money the University has is directly linked to its ratings. Universities need updated technology, services and buildings to receive high ratings and attract students. To afford these things, universities need money. So when the amount
of money the University is raking in decreases, its ratings go down — along with the value of our degrees.
At KUEA we are trained to explain these
things to alumni, but even the most persuasive students can't always convince alumni who do not want to donate money to the University to change their minds.
Not to mention, according to the University's Web site, "KU tuition this year was 6 percent
below the Big 12 Conference average for resident tuition and more than 10 percent lower for non-resident tuition."
Mismanagement of funds is another argument I often hear. If it is, then we need to focus on how to better manage our funds before we make any hasty decisions, like cutting tuition.
People also complain that the University spends too much money on its athletics programs. OK, everyone knew that before they came to school here. And FYI: most of the money spent on our athletics programs are provided by alumni too. They pay outrageous
amounts to a program called the "Williams Fund" to support our basketball team and get good seats at home games.
However, those who still believe that tuition should be decreased and the University should deal with it by cutting its budget, perhaps should go to Johnson County Community College. Tuition there is approximately half the price of ours for two years and I hear that JCCC looks just as good on transcripts as the University of Kansas.

>> LETTER TO THE EDITOR
Memorial could have been better with veterans'aid
We would like to commend the hard work and dedication of the people who took the time to write out the names of fallen service members from the war in Iraq. As veterans of Operation Iraqi Freedom, the executive officers of the Collegiate Veterans Association at the University of Kansas thank you for investing the time and effort to complete this memorial.
However, we have several concerns about the placement and nature of this memorial, namely the location, the failure to inform our organization of this event and the exclusion of the dead from Operation Enduring Freedom in Afghanistan.
Aghaniman
Seeing the names of fallen friends brought back buried emotions and memories of times spent with those who are no longer with us. Watching oblivious students walk on these names while absently
talking on cell phones or listening to iPods evoked feelings of anger and rage. Placing this memorial in a central location such as Strong Hall certainly helped to draw attention to this it, yet the disrespectful nature in which some students treated this display negated the intentions of its creators.
This display came as a total surprise to the Collegeleg Veterans Association and veterans on campus. It would have been appropriate and appreciated if those who organized this memorial would have informed us of their intentions and asked for our participation. We would have liked to have written the names of our deceased friends ourselves, instead of strangers doing it.
In the future, please inform the Collegiate Veterans Association of such an event, allowing us to give our input and assistance in such an undertaking. We can be reached at kucva@ku.edu.
While the organizers claim this event to be apolitical and only serve to honor the fallen, then why were the names of those killed in Afghanistan excluded? It seems to us that only Iraq was utilized because it is the unpopular war, whereas the less politically charged war in Afghanistan is more acceptable.
While this may be true, the bravery and sacrifice of those who have died in Afghanistan is no less memorable than their comrades in arms who were killed in Iraq.
Again, we would like to reiterate the efforts of those who undertook this project and thank them for their work. We appreciate their labors and commitment to raising awareness about the human cost of war.

Senate subpoenas Gonzales'e-mails related to Rove
BY LAURIE KELLMAN ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — Senators subpoenaed Attorney General Alberto Gonzales on Wednesday, ordering him to provide all e-mails related to presidential adviser Karl Rove and the firings of eight federal prosecutors.
"It it troubling that significant documents highly relevant to the committee's inquiry have not been produced," Judiciary Committee Chairman Patrick Leahy (D-VT.) wrote in a letter to Gonzales. The subpoena gives Gonzales until May 15 to turn over the information.
Not accepting the White House's explanation that some Rove-related e-mails may have been lost, Leahy subpoenaed any in the custody of the Justice Department. Leahy pointed to Rove's lawyer's statement that some of those the White House claims might be lost had been turned over to U.S. Attorney Patrick Fitzgerald as part of the investigation into the leak of CIA agent Valerie Plame's identity.
It was unclear whether any were related to the prosecutor firings, but congressional investigators believe that if Fitzgerald could retrieve some e-mails for his investigation, those
related to the firings of U.S. attorneys are also recoverable.
The White House has said it was trying to recover e-mails that were lost but had not promised to give any to congressional investigators.
A Justice Department spokesman did not immediately return a call seeking comment.
Gonzales said during his April 19 testimony to Leahy's committee that he did not know the details but would back to the chairman.
"I have not heard from you since," Leahy wrote, urging compliance with all of his panel's requests for information "to avoid further subpoenas."
It was the committee's first subpoena issued since the firing caused an uprora earlier this year.

Legislators approve final spending bill
BY JOHN HANNA
ASSOCIATED PRESS
TOPEKA - After negotiators agreed on additional money for aviation research and keeping a $39.5 million prison expansion program on track, legislators approved the year's last spending bill Wednesday.
The measure also included money to prevent the Kansas Sports Hall of Fame from closing. Three senators and three House members drafted the final version of the bill, reconciling dozens of differences between their chambers during three days of talks.
The House approved the compromise, 68-56, and the Senate followed about two hours later, 23-15. The measure went to Gov. Kathleen Sebelius, who will sign it but has the power to veto individual items.
Passing the bill allowed legislators to end their annual session, which began Jan. 8 and lasted 90 days, exactly the number leaders had planned. A brief adjournment ceremony is set for May 22.
"This a compromise. That's what we do," said Sen. Jay Emler (R-Lindsborg), one of the negotiators. "Do we like everything that's in this compromise? Absolutely not."

conservative Republicans, said the bill completed a budget the state can't sustain even for another two years.
"Many budget priorities are misplaced despite our best efforts," said Rep. Jeff Colyer (R-Overland Park), explaining his "no" vote and speaking for other conservatives. "This guarantees an unprecedented budget crisis."
The prison expansion program was a once-settled issue that resurfaced. Lawmakers authorized the bonds for it last month, and the Department of Corrections contemplated four projects providing 668 new beds.
Those projects were two new cellhouses at the state's maximum security prison outside El Dorado, a new, 240-bed drug-and-alcohol treatment center for inmates in Yates Center and expansion of the state prisons in Ellsworth and Stockton.
The issue was particularly important to Woodson County officials, who feared Yates Center would lose its project. The city, with 1,500 people 80 miles south of Topeka, has been trying to attract a prison for more than two decade to boost its economy.
"It revitalizes hope," mayor Doug Tressler said Tuesday of the negotiators' action. "It certainly gives us the hope of building more of an economy, building more businesses."

Singer not allowed to perform
Army says advance notice needed if Baez wants to sing for troops at hospital
ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON - Folk singer and anti-war activist Joan Baez says she doesn't know why she was not allowed to perform for recovering soldiers recently at Walter Reed Army Medical Center as she planned.
In a letter to The Washington Post published Wednesday, she said rocker John Mellencamp had asked her to perform with him last Friday and that she accepted his invitation.
"I have always been an advocate for nonviolence and I have stood as firmly against the Iraq war as I did the Vietnam War 40 years ago," she wrote. "I realize now that I might have contributed to a better
welcome home for those soldiers fresh from Vietnam. Maybe that's why I didn't hesitate to accept the invitation to sing for those returning
from Iraq and Afghanistan. In the end, four days before the concert, I was not 'approved' by the Army to take part. Strange irony."
The Post reported that Walter Reed officials did not respond to
diers) that thought I was a traitor," she told the paper.
Baez, 66, told the Post in a telephone interview Tuesday that she was not told why she was left off the program by the Army. "There might have been one, there might have been 50 (sol-

requests for comm ent Tuesday, but that in an e-mailed statement published Monday on RollingStone.com, spokesman Steve Sanderson said the medical center received the request for
participation by Baez just two days before the concert.
"These additional requirements were not in the agreement/contract
and would have required a modification." Sanderson told the magazine's Web site.
Baez's manager, Mark Spector, told the Post that Mellencamp's management invited Baez to perform in March and handled the arrangements. But Mellencamp earlier told RollingStone.com: "They didn't give me a reason why she couldn't come. We asked why and they said, 'She can't fit here, period.'

Philadelphia TVanchor Ayalaal speaks during an interview at station Lane, a 34-year-old anchor for KYW-TV e-mailed vacation pictures of herself in a bikini to NIH Network anchor Rich Eich. But the shots were intercepted by his wife, former Fox and ABC sports reporter Suzy Shuster who was not amused. The pictures were meant to be good fun between old friends, not an attempt to break up Eisen's marriage.
ASSOCIATED PRESS
PHILADELPHIA — When a television news friend of NFL Network anchor Rich Eisen emailed him pictures of herself in a bikini, they were intercepted — by his wife.
Alycia Lane, anchor for Philadelphia's KYW-TV, said the vacation pictures were part of "harmless" banter between two old friends," not an attempt to break up Eisen's four-year marriage.
"I hope love comes to me. I'm not looking for it with a married man," Lane, recently divorced a second time, told The Philadelphia Inquirer in Wednesday's editions. "I have been the married girl who was cheated on."
The New York Post, which reported on the flap in a gossip column Tuesday, said Eisen's wife, former Fox and ABC sports reporter Suzy Shuster, got the e-mails in an account she shares with her husband and responded with a snarky letter
to Lane.
"Boy, do you look amazing in a bikini ... congrats! Whatever you're doing, (Pilates? yoga?) keep doing it — it's working for you," Shuster wrote, according to the Post. "Anyway, sorry but those seven e-mails you sent to my husband, Rich, well, oops, they came to the e-mail address we both use from time to time, but no worries, I'll forward the beach shots as well as the ones of you dancing with your friends on to his main address. Do you have it?"
Lane, 34, said that she was "mortified" by the whole story, and that she and Eisen have corresponded frequently since meeting nearly 10 years ago when she worked at a station in New York and Eisen worked for ESPN in Bristol, Conn.
Seth Palansky, a spokesman for NFL Network, said that neither Eisen nor his wife wished to comment Wednesday.

"Our relationship has always been purely platonic." Lane said.

NEWYORK—Isaiah Washington, who came under fire after using an anti-gay slur, will appear in a public service announcement on behalf of the Gay & Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation and the Gay, Lesbian & Straight Education Network.

FOOTBALL
Early games should push Kansas toward bowl eligibility
BY ASHER FUSCO
SEPTEMBER 1 — CENTRAL MICHIGAN
To begin the season Kansas plays host to Central Michigan, the reigning Mid-
C
American Conference champion.
The Chippewas return seven starters on both offense and defense from last year's 10-4 squad. Central Michigan will be noticeably weaker on the offensive and defensive lines with the losses of star offensive tackle Joe Staley and defensive end
joe baziu. Both players were AllMAC first-team selections and were selected in the first two rounds of last weekend's NFL Draft. Some of the Chippewas' most important contributors include versatile running back Ontario Sneed and experienced linebacker Red Keith. Quarterback Dan LeFevour has established himself as the best in the MAC, winning freshman of the year and All-MAC first team honors. Central Michigan will be under the guidance of brand new head coach Butch Jones, who has no experience as a head coach at the Division I-A level. Kansas should handle the Chippewas at home.
PROJECTION: WIN — 1-0
SEPTEMBER8—SOUTHEAST LOUISIANA
Southeast Louisiana may have finished with only two victories last season, but the team sent two players to the NFL by way of free agent contracts.
LIONS
Despite producing better professional prospects than Kansas, the Tigers are the weakest opponents on the Jayhawks' 2007 slate. The team plays in Division I-AA. Kansas tossed the game on the schedule in an effort to inch closer to the six victories needed for bowl eligibility. The team returns
leading rusher Jay Lucas but loses eight starters on the defensive side of the football. The early September game should afford Kansas the opportunity to test its depth by playing reserves and work out any kinks in anticipation of tougher games.
PROJECTION: WIN — 2-0
SEPTEMBER 15 — TOLEDO
The Toledo football program made quite a bit of news this winter, not much of it.
good. Earlier this year, a Toledo player was charged with participating in a point-shaving scheme Just two weeks later another Rocket was arrested, this time for attempted aggravated burglary. However, there is some good news for Toledo fans the school has built one of the most formidable mid-major football programs in America in the last few years. Coach Tom Amstutz's team hit a bump in the road last season, finishing with a 5-7 record and tied at seventh place in the Mid-American Conference. One of those five victories was against the Jayhawks. Toledo returns 18 starters from the 2006 squad that defeated Kansas in an overtime thriller. Returning offensive tackle John Greco is on the pre-
TOLEDO
season watch list for the Lombardi Award, given to the nation's best lineman. Despite Toledo's experienced backfield and offensive line, Kansas should be able to translate its home field advantage into a victory.

Elle Pottorf, sophomore catcher, wasn't able to add any runs during Wednesday's double-header against Wichita State. The Jayhawks lost to the Shockers 1-0 and 6-4 respectively.
Shockers continue sweep
BY EVAN KAFARAKIS
Wichita State swept the Kansas softball team Wednesday, winning 1-0 and 6-4 in wet conditions that didn't seem to faze the Shockers.
Game one was a pitching duel between Jayhawk senior Kassie Humphreys (18-12) and Shocker pitcher Margo Pruis (21-11).
Humphreys gave up three hits, one of which was the game-winning home run in the bottom of the fourth.
Both pitchers threw the entire game and struck out 10 batters a piece.
Pruis allowed only one hit to sophomore outfielder Dougie McCaulley.
The layhawks found themselves on base after Pruis walked them, but couldn't capitalize, stranding seven zunners on base.
Sophomore pitcher Valerie George started for the Jayhawks and through four innings, she gave up four runs on six hits including a three-run home run in the bottom of the third.
"They have really, improved over the last four, five years," Bunge said of the Wichita State team that has defeated the Jayhawks eight of the past 10 games.
Kansas scored its only four runs in the 'top of the third inning, which started with a single by sophomore third basemen Val Chapple.
The first game was followed by a 6-4 loss for the Jayhawks as the Shockers' bats staved hot.
Chapple advanced to second on a sacrifice bunt from junior outfielder Betsy Wilson.
McCaulley knocked one into left field, allowing Chapple to take
third.
One pitch later, freshman first baseman Amanda Jobe blasted a two-run home run to right center. Jobe's homer was her fifth of the season, tying her for the fifth most home runs by a Kansas freshman in a season.
After McCaulley stole second, senior first baseman Nicole Washburn hit a grounder through the middle to score Chapple and McCaulley.
Kansas travels to Iowa State to close out the regular season with a weekend matchup. Kansas will play Saturday at 2 p.m. and Sunday at noon.

Talib should turn sights to pro league

KANSAN SPORTS COLUMNIST
JKEALING@KANSAN.COM
I still think that, but I think that Aqib Talib being named the No. 5-best prospect in NCAA Division I football is an even bigger deal. Talib, the junior cornerback out of Richardson, Texas, has long been declared the best recruit of the Mark Mangino era, at least in terms of draftability. But to rank him as the fifth-best prospect is unheard of.
Incidentally, the next highest-ranked Big 12 Conference
This column started as a lesson in why Jayhawk nation needs to chill out and quit feeling Brandon Rush and Julian Wright owe them something other than the two years they played.
His companions in the top five include quarterback Brian Brohm of Louisville, who was the Orange Bowl MVP. In the Cardinals' victory against Wake Forest, he completed 24-for-31 passes for 311 yards. Also ranking in the top five, again, according to Sports Illustrated, is Darren McFadden of Arkansas. The running back, who has a Web site devoted to his promotion, www.darrenmcfadden.org, rushed for almost 1,650 yards with 14 touchdowns.
player is wide receiver Limas Sweed of Texas at No. 9. In fact, it is because of players like 6-foot-5, 219-pound Limas Sweed that Talib is even ranked so high.
The old, conventional wisdom says that the 6-2, 180-pound Talib is too big to play at corner back. But as receivers grow taller and bigger, the football players tasked to keep them from getting the ball need to get bigger as well.
Still, tall cornerbacks have a long history of busting as well. For Talib to be successful, he's going to have to get faster. As was seen when Jon Cornish fell out of the draft, teams want someone who puts up numbers at the Combine.
That's why a big guy like Talib gets the chance to be drafted in the first round of the 2008 NFL Draft.
Talib will also have to show his potential at every opportunity.
If he were being drafted this year, he may not have gone as highly as he did in 1998. He went seventh. This year, the first cornerback taken was Darele Revis at No. 14. He's 6-0. The next cornerback taken was Aaron Ross, who stands 6-1, at No. 20.
The best cornerback in the NFL is, almost without question, Champ Bailey. He is fast, skilled and smart. He's also a couple inches smaller than Talib. Bailey's not going anywhere, but he's already been in the league eight years.

Former K-State coach takes job in California Wooldridge to lead UC Riverside program
ASSOCIATED PRESS
RIVERSIDE, Calif. — Jim Wooldridge, most recently the head coach at Kansas State for six, seasons, was hired Wednesday as coach at UC Riverside.
The 51-year-old Wooldridge has coached at the collegiate or professional level for 29 years. Before coaching at Kansas State, he was the head coach at Central Missouri State, Texas State and Louisiana Tech.
He also served as an assistant coach to Tim Floyd with the Chicago Bulls in the 1998-99 and 1999-2000 seasons.
Wooldridge was fired as the coach at Kansas State in March 2006 after the Wildcats completed
a 15-13 season.
His Kansas State teams were 83-90. The Wildcats had winning records in each of his last two seasons after six straight losing seasons.
Wooldridge has a 312-237 record in 19 years as a college head coach. He didn't coach this past season.
"Jim Wooldridge brings a wealth of knowledge about what it takes to build a program and to position a team to not only compete, but to win," Stan Morrison, the UC Riverside director of athletics, said in a statement. "His single focus will be immediately apparent to his players, assistants, and colleagues in the department.

Something is missing here. Last weekend, Jon Cornish was not drafted by any NFL team

drafted by any NPL team.
Not one team thought that Kansas' single season rushing-record holder and the Big 12 Conference's leading rusher was worthy of a draft pick.
Cornish's one drawback during the draft was that he ran a slow 40-yard dash. He ran around 4.6 seconds, and scouts would have liked him to run a 4.4 or even a 4.3. Anyone who saw him during the season would think twice about doubting his speed.
Maybe they didn't draft him because he doesn't wear gloves. At this point I'm still looking for any kind of reason why no team would want this guy.
Think about this. Two seasons ago Kansas had arguably the best defense in the country, led by the best linebacking core in all of college football. None of that team, including former All-American Charles Gordon, was drafted.

KANSAN SPORTS COLUMNIST
JEORGENSEN@KANSAN.COM
It is undeniable that Kansas football is in a funk. The Athletics Department is building a new football facility, but-facilities don't recruit players and win games. The most successful recent season ended with a Fort Worth Bowl victory, which doesn't sound too glamorous to any possible four- or five-star recruits.
Do your best to stick to corner-back, but I doubt you'll have much of a choice. So, if it looks like you're heading down the Charles Gordon path next season take this advice: Thrive at cornerback as best you can, pack your bags and head to the draft before you're converted to a receiver and lose all your NFL stock.
The coaches are likely planning on using you as a receiver next season, which is OK. However, do you remember what happened to Gordon? Had he been able to leave after his sophomore season he would have been drafted in the top three rounds as a cornerback,
where he was an All-American. However, in his junior year he was turned almost exclusively into a receiver. He entered the draft after that season.
since 1997. By comparison, Kansas State has had more than 30 players drafted in that same time period.
Fans should try to stay optimistic, though. There is some quality talent on this team. Junior corner-back Aqib Talib is the most talented player since Charles Gordon to play for Kansas. At his current pace he will likely break the streak by Kansas players not being drafted, but I do have some advice for Talib.
Why would any great recruit want to play for a school that's going to spell the end of his career rather than be the launching pad to stardom? A school that could get him drafted is less than two hours away.

Why would anyone want to play for a school that produces few pros, rarely sells out games, wins no championships and whose biggest thrill is beating a team whose mascot is a giant cat head on some guy wearing a football jersey and tights?
es' heads, especially in the middle of the offseason, but another empty draft don't make Kansas fans feel any better. It feels like Jayhawk fans are willing to give the current coaching staff one more season. If it's more of the same, it will be time to find coaches who can bring the program some excitement and recruits, which would ultimately lead to a rejuvenated fan base and hopefully victories.
Kansas football is in a rut and it needs out badly.

The next closest corner in 2006, in terms of passes defended, was previously mentioned Aaron Ross. He had 1.7 passes defended per game.
All of this bodes well for Talib, who has an opportunity to be the first Jayhawk taken in the first round of the NFL Draft since Dana Stubblefield, all the way back in 1994.

The Devil Rays scored twice against Nathan, who blew his first save opportunity, on twoout RBI singles by Elijah Dukes and Ty Wigginton.
Carlos Pena had one-out infield single in the 10th off Matt Guerrier (0-1) that hit an overhanging catwalk and landed between first and second.

Hall of Fame draws visitors
BY STEVE HERMAN ASSOCIATED PRESS
INDIANAPOLIS — Peek through the doublewide wooden doors into the replica A.J. Foyt garage. Marvel at Carl Fisher's one-of-a-kind 1905 Premier, a hulking skeleton of steel that was too heavy to race. Walk through a 100-year timeline of technology and fashion, of helmets and goggles, of silver trophies and bronze sculptures and gold medallions.
For more than 50 years, the Indianapolis Motor Speedway Hall of Fame Museum has shared the history of automobile racing with the nearly 250,000 visitors who pass through each year - a third of them during May, when the 2 1/2-mile track gears up for the annual Indianapolis 500, which takes place
this year on May 27.
"What you see on display is not everything that they have," said Donald Davidson, the Speedway historian, whose office is situated inside the 96,000-square-foot building.
Heads up
The collection soon outgrew the building, and Hulman opened the current facility inside the gates in April 1976.
"Virtually everything you see on the cars is original." Davidson said. "You can trace it all the way through, so we're very, very fortunate."
Visitors can view the Borg-Warner Trophy, a 5-foot-tall sterling silver monument that bears the basi-resilf likeness of each Indianapolis winner. And then there are the cars — about 85 on display at all times.
"What you see on display is not everything that they have. There is a rotation."
The collection includes Ray Harroun's Wasp, winner of the inaugural 500 almost a century ago; Joe Dawson's 1912 National; the 1922 Murphy Special, built by Duesenberg and the only race car to win both LeMans and the Indy 500, and all four of Foyt's winning cars. There $ ^{2} $
that houses the designated National Historic Landmark.
DONALD DAVIDSON Speedway historian
"There is a rotation. They try to keep the things that you would expect to see here all the time," Davidson said. "Like the Marmon Wasp that won the race in 1911 is here virtually all the time."
The original museum, a small single-story brick building on the southwest corner of the grounds, outside the track, opened in 1956 with six vintage cars from the private collection of the late Speedway owner Tony Hulman, a Terre Haute businessman-sportsman who bought and restored the track after World War II.
also the Belond Special that won in 1957 with Sam Hanks and in 1958 with Jimmy Bryan, the only car to win with different drivers.
More than 30 of the cars are race winners. Others, such as the car driven
The oldest car is the one commissioned by Fisher, one of the Speedway's four founders, and built by Premier, an Indianapolis passenger car company. Fisher, who later drained a Florida swamp and turned it into Miami Beach, wanted to compete in the Vanderbilt Cup Race on Long Island, N.Y., America's most prestigious race at the time, but the

in 1977 by Janet Guthrie, the first woman in the Indy 500, mark key events in racing history.
Premier exceeded the 2,200-pound maximum.
"So what they did was try and make the thing as light as possible," Davidson said. "They started drilling holes in the frame."
After 470 holes, they stopped drilling, fearing any more would cause the body-less vehicle to collapse. The car was still 120 pounds too heavy, forcing a withdrawal.
Fisher raced the car, which cost $15,000, only once — on Nov. 5, 1905, winning on the Indiana State Fairgrounds' 1-mile horse track.
Though heavy on Indy 500 roots, the museum also pays homage to the other races held at the track each year — Formula One's U.S. Grand Prix and NASCAR's Allstate 400 at the Brickyard. There also are midget and sprint cars and European sports cars; the NASCAR collection includes a No. 43 Pontiac driven by Richard Petty and Indiana native Tony Stewart's No. 20.
Martin Kieslich, a German exchange student, was pleased to see helmets worn by retired F1 driver Michael Schumacher during a recent visit, which included a museum-sponsored ride around the famed race track — in a shuttle bus, though, not a race car.
"You always see the Indianapolis 500," Kieslich said. "It's strange to think that you yourself are on that track."
One of the most valuable cars in the museum's collection is a streamlined 1954 F1 Mercedes-Benz. A similar car sold several years ago in England for about $10 million, Davidson said.
And one of the most exotic cars is a 1957 SS Corvette built from a stripped-down Jaguar D Type by a group of General Motors engineers who wanted to get into international competition to beat Ferrari and Maserati.
"I don't know if they even had a budget. They just started working on the thing." Davidson said.

Cardinals struggle in wake of tragedy
St. Louis swept after pitcher's death
BY CHRIS JENKINS ASSOCIATED PRESS
MILWAUKEE — As the St. Louis Cardinals prepare to remember a lost teammate, they'd just as soon forget about their last three games.
The Cardinals lost 4-0 to the Milwaukee Brewers on Wednesday, leaving them swept and dazed in their first series since the death of relief pitcher Josh Hancock.
St. Louis has lost five in a row overall and spent much of its three-game series in Milwaukee looking
lost in the field and crossed up at the plate.
"You've got to fight through it," Cardinals manager Tony La Russa said. "This club will prove it'll fight. That's why I'm confident we're going to improve."
Milwaukee Brewers' Corey Hart steals second base as the St. Louis Cardinals David Eckstein tries to tag him in the fourth inning Wednesday in Milwaukee. The Cardinals lost 4-0
"This club's proven it'll fight. That's why I'm confident we're going to improve."
But first, St. Louis must take another tough step in an emotional week. The Cardinals are off Thursday but will travel to Tupelo, Miss., to attend a memorial service for Hancock, killed in a highway wreck early Sunday.
La Russa said earlier that while attending the service won't be easy for the team, it's the right thing to do.
TONY LA RUSSA
Cardinals manager
"It's hard to imagine that being a positive, but I think it's important to do," La Russa said. "I think it's important for his family and our organization to do it, but it won't be a positive day."
against the reigning World Series champions, Milwaukee has won nine of 11 overall and has the best record in baseball at 18-9. Prince Fielder hit a two-run single off Anthony Reyes (0-5) to help the Brewers earn their first home sweep of St. Louis since taking four games in April 2002.
"They have a pretty good team," Cardinals first baseman Albert Pujols said. "They're young, but they know how to play the game and they can swing the bat. We knew that. Everybody knew that in the league

the second and pitched one more inning before he was taken out of the game.
"For him to come in and throw up zeros was huge," Capuano said. "It helped the hitters relax and put the ball in play."
Carlos Villanueva (2-0) pitched four scoreless innings in relief for the victory, allowing two hits and walking two.
Villanueva loaded the bases with one out in the sixth, but struck out Scott Spiezio and got Gary Bennett on a deep fly to left.
"He came in and held down the fort, and got the 'W' for himself," Yost said.
Matt Wise tossed two scoreless innings to complete the five-hitter. Milwaukee's first shutout of the season. The Cardinals were blanked for the third time.
Reyes struck out a season-high eight, but gave up four runs — three earned — in six innings.
"He pitched well, didn't deserve to lose," La Russa said.
Reyes said he expects the team to snap out of its slump soon.
"We're not going to go on like this all season," he said. "These guys are professionals, and everyone works hard on the team. It's just one of those things we have to go through right now."
La Russa isn't allowing the team to use Hancock's death as an excuse for its poor play — mostly because the Cardinals weren't playing particularly well beforehand.
"That's obviously always going to be in the back of your mind the rest of the year, and a lot of people, the rest of our lives," outfielder Skip
Schumaker said, "But once you step on the field, I think we've got to move on from that — not put it past us, but we've got to compete when we're on the field. Before and after, obviously, you can dwell upon it. But during it, it's a competition out there and you've got to compete."
Pujols said the team had weathered tough times in the past. He was a member of the club when pitcher Darryl Kile died in 2002.
"Everybody knows the organization, we pull through." Pujols said. "I think the best thing is, you have a
great group of guys here. It's not like you've got guys who don't care about what we're going through."
Reyes said he expected an emotional day on Thursday.
"It is, but I'm just thinking about baseball right now and trying not to think of anything else," he said.
NOTES:
J. J. Hardy extended his career-best hitting streak to 13 games with a single in the fourth. ... Pujols pushed his hitting streak to 11 games with a single in the first.

Jordan, Woods team up at event
BY DOUG FERGUSON ASSOCIATED PRESS
M
CHARLOTTE, N.C. — The gallery stood a dozen rows deep and spilled down both sides of the fairway, the kind of scene Tiger Woods is used to seeing on the weekend at a major championship. This was only a pro-arm round Wednesday at the Wachovia Championship.
Chuck Burton/ASSOCIATED PRESS
Tiger Woods, left, and Michael Jordan, right, share a laugh as they walk off the 17th green during the pro-am for the Wachovia Championship golf tournament at Quail Hollow Club in Charlotte. N.C. on Wednesday.
And for once, Woods felt part of the crowd.
This is what happens when two of the most celebrated icons in sports are together on the golf course in a public event for the first time. Woods, owner of 12 majors, gladly shared the stage at Quail Hollow with Michael Jordan, owner of six NBA titles and five MVPs.
"This is great," Woods said as he waited on the 10th tee. "No one knows I'm here."
That much was clear when he walked out of the clubhouse toward the practice range and some three dozen people didn't even realize he was there because their eyes trained on Jordan pulling his car up to the valet.
Jordan is part-owner of the NBAs Charlotte Bobcats, and although he doesn't spend much time in town, he wanted to play in the pro-am. Woods first played golf with Jordan in 1997 in Chicago. While they often get together on the golf course, his camp asked tournament officials if they could be paired on Wednesday.
"We know a few people," Woods said with a laugh. "No, the tournament was nice enough to put us together. He's been like my big brother, so it's been great to have him be part of my life. We had a great time today. We always have a great time."
For a pro-am round, it did not lack for entertainment.
Woods and Jordan needle each other endlessly during their private rounds, and they brought the banter to Quail Hollow.
With a cigar in his mouth, Jordan made an eight-foot par putt on the seventh hole, then mimicked Woods as he walked off the green, delivering a fist-pump in slow motion and holding his pose until he was sure Woods was looking.
The showmanship picked up on the back nine
Woods re-teed, and at the top of his back swing, Jordan cleared his throat loud enough to make Woods stop The world's No. 1 player set up over the ball again and hit a hard draw down the middle of the fairway, locking eyes with Jordan in a mock staredown. Jordan then ripped his driver down the fairway, and as he stooped to pick up his tee, looked back at Woods and returned the stare.
Woods was waiting for the 11th fairway to clear when Jordan walked by and kicked his ball off the tee toward a young boy in the gallery. "You can have it," Jordan told the boy.
The chatter was endless, and as always, Jordan was doing most of the talking. He was asked after the round how many majors Woods might have won if he had to be paired with Jordan during the final round.
"Not as many," Jordan said. "I can
"He wins all the time," Woods said of the trash-talking battle. "I'll just throw out a jab every now and then, but basically this is my home court, so it's a little easier for me. On his court, it would be a little different deal."
get in his head.
Woods doesn't argue.
Jordan almost chipped into the water from right of the 17th green, but the ball stopped on the last patch of iand. Woods scooped his ball up with the putter to flip it to Jordan. And, with Jordan holding out his hand, Woods flipped the ball backward and into the lake.
Woods can pick his moments, though.
Filling out their threesome was Skipper Beck, who owns an import car dealership and is a minority investor of the Bobcats.
"I'm comfortable being around Michael," he said. "Throw Tiger in the mix, and I tightened up a little bit."
Radio host to return triple-play ball

It's now stored in a Ziplock bag at his home.

first baseman Todd Helton threw it into the stands moments after the play.
DENVER — Radio host Steffan Tubbs says he has the ball used in a rare unassisted triple play and has no intention of holding it for ransom or auctioning it off on eBay.
He won't ask for much.
Tubbs announced he had the ball on his KOA-850 radio show Monday and the station issued a statement on his behalf Tuesday night.
"I was thrilled to have the ball," Tubbs said in the statement. "Considering how rare a ball it is, it definitely belongs in the Baseball Hall of Fame."
The ball may never wind up in
the Hall because it can't be verified that it's the one from the triple play. However, Tulowitzki's jersey and hat have already been sent to Cooperstown, N.Y.
"I had people sitting around me say, 'We'll sign affidavits,' Tubbs said. "It's a great part of Rockies team history."
The play came in the seventh inning of a Braves-Rockies game with the score tied at 5. Kelly Johnson and Edgar Renteria had reached on singles and were running on a 3-2 pitch when Tulowitzki caught Chipper Jones' line drive close to second base. The rookie stepped on the bag to double up Johnson, then tagged Renteria for the third out.

Rangers even series with Sabres
BY IRA PODELL ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK — The Buffalo Sabres thought they had a tie game. Instead, it's their series with the New York Rangers that's suddenly all even.
Daniel Briere smacked the puck in the dwindling seconds of the third period Tuesday night. Henrik Lundqvist stretched his right pad as he fell forward and stopped the stuff attempt by the Sabres forward at the right post.
Or did he?
The Sabres said no. The replay officials said yes, or at least as far as they could tell. It all added up to a 2-1 Rangers victory, New York's second in a row on home ice, that deadlocked the best-of-seven Eastern Conference semifinal series 2-2.
"You guys can make your own judgment on it!" frustrated Buffalo
goalie Ryan Miller said. "Whatever we say is either going to get us in trouble or not even worth our time. The game is over. They made their ruling and we have to move on."
Game Five is Friday back in Buffalo. The Sabres know they'll have to make another trip back to New York for Game 6 on Sunday, something they couldn't have expected after taking a 2-0 series lead at home.
Lundqvist stopped Briere's shot just short of fully crossing the goal line with 17 seconds left. The Sabres got the chance to tie when Lundqvist nearly lingered too long following the puck behind the net.
Both teams had to wait out a lengthy video review for the second straight game.
"What were looking for is either confirm what the call is on the ice, or we have to have a conclusive picture of the puck being in the net," Bob Hall, the supervisor of officials
for the series said in a statement. "It's what we're looking for in this case because the on-ice ruling was no goal.
"We looked and looked and looked. No replay that we have seen shows it definitely crossing the goal line."
In the only other NHL game of the night, Anaheim took a 3-1 series lead against Vancouver with a 3-2 overtime victory. The other Western Conference semifinal resumes Wednesday when San Jose looks to grab a 3-1 advantage at home against Detroit. Ottawa will try to do the same against New Jersey in the other Eastern series.
On Sunday, Rangers defenseman Karel Rachunek lost a goal when league officials in Toronto used a replay to determine he kicked the puck in. The game went to double overtime, but a major controversy was avoided when the Rangers eventually won.

Denver Nuggets center Marcus Camby, right, scores over San Antonio Spurs defender forward Tim Duncan, left, during the first quarter of their NBA basketball first-round playoff game in San Antonio on Wednesday. The Spurs won 93-78.
SAN ANTONIO — Michael Finley set a San Antonio playoff record with eight three-pointers Wednesday night and the Spurs advanced to the Western Conference semifinals with a 93-78 victory against the Denver Nuggets.
Spurs advance to semis
San Antonio closes out series with Denver in five games
Tim Duncan had 23 points and 12 rebounds and Tony Parker added 16 points and 10 assists for the third-seeded Spurs, who dropped Game One to the Nuggets at home before winning the next four in the first-round series.
had 21 points Wednesday,10 in the fourth quarter.
Anthony had 21 points in Game 5, while Steve Blake had 12 and Nene added 10. NBA Defensive Player of the Year Marcus Camby had 19 rebounds.
Sixth-seeded Denver traded for Iverson in December to create an All-Star duo with Carmelo Anthony.
Denver has not won a playoff
"It was important for us to play 48 minutes. Every shot I took felt good and fortunately they went in tonight."
MICHAEL FINLEY
Spurs guard
It was a virtual repeat of 2005, when the Spurs lost Game One at home before winning the next four to eliminate Denver.
The Spurs will meet either the Los Angeles Lakers or Phoenix Suns in the second round. Phoenix, which led 3-1, hosted Game Five on Wednesday night.
"Stay with the concept," Finley said. "Stay with the team philosophy. As long as we do that, we'll be successful."
Allen Iverson struggled from the field for his fourth straight game after scoring 31 points in Game One. He was 6-for-22 from the field and
series since 1994, when they beat Seattle in a best-of-five to become the first No. 8 seed to knock out a No. 1.
Finley was 8-for-9 on three pointers while the Spurs finished 10-for-21 from beyond the
arc. He came into Game Five shooting nearly 41 percent from threepoint range during the playoffs, up from 36 percent during the regular season.
Duncan gave the Spurs a 37-27 lead when he drove to the basket for a dunk with 6.38 left in the half.
Denver chipped away at the deficit and Blake hit a three-pointer with 31.9 seconds left to give Denver a 45-44 lead. After Robert Horry missed a three-pointer at the other end for the Spurs, Blake hit another three-pointer off a pass from Iverson, who had six assists in the half, just as the quarter ended to put Denver up 48-44.
"Well. I was feeling it a little bit," Firley said. "Every shot I took felt good and fortunately they went in tonight.
Iverson missed his first six shots Wednesday. His first field goal came with 8:50 left in the second quarter and it brought the Nuggets within 30-25.
"It was important for us to play 48 minutes," he said. "They came out. They played hard. But we focused and that was the difference."
The Spurs opened the fourth quarter with a 7-0 run sparked by Finley's fourth three of the game.
After a slew of misses on both sides, Iverson's three-point play gave Denver a one-point lead. It was their last of the night as Francisco Elson hit the go-ahead dunk with 6:21 left in the third.
Denver's frustration was evident as Anthony was called for a personal foul for pushing Manu Ginobili, who didn't have the ball. On Denver's next possession he turned the ball over and ran back down the court shaking his head.
Horry, who sealed Game 4 for San Antonio on Monday in Denver off a three-pointer with 30 seconds left, hit a three to open the fourth quarter and his dunk with 9:43 left gave the Spurs a 70-61 lead.
Finley's fifth three-pointer with 1:30 left in the third put San Antonio up 61-55, and they went into the final 12 minutes up 63-59.
Finley hit his sixth three-pointer with just more than nine minutes to go and his seventh came halfway through the fourth quarter as the Spurs took an 82-71 lead.

Woods reflects on father's death a year later
CHARLOTTE, N.C. — In a couple of months, it will all change for Tiger Woods.
"This time last year was not a fun period in my life,"he said. "But now a year later, here I am, looking forward to becoming a father. Times have changed."
He prepared for the Wachovia
Championship by playing in a pro am Wednesday. The tournament starts Thursday, a year to the day after Woods' father died.
Woods skipped the Wachovia last year as Earl Woods' health deteriorated. On the eve of the tournament the man behind Woods's steely resolve and fierce competitive streak died of cancer.
Woods returned to competitive golf six weeks later and missed the cut at the U.S. Open. But Woods
recovered to win the British Open and PGA Championship and didn't finish worse than second in any other stroke-play event the rest of the year.
"But still, there are times when I thoroughly miss my dad," Woods said. "I just wish I could talk to him, hear his voice and ask him for advice on certain things. Basically, he was my best friend. Not only did I lose my father, but my best friend."

Cubs win-16 hours later
Four-run seventh inning key to victory in suspended game
BY ALAN ROBINSON ASSOCIATED PRESS
PITTSBURGH — The Chicago Cubs pulled off one of their best comeback victories of the season, even if they had to wait nearly 16 hours to celebrate it.
Alfonso Soriano hit his first horner for the Cubs and Cliff Floyd had a go-ahead, two-run shot during a four-run rally in the seventh inning on Tuesday night, and Chicago completed the suspended-game victory by finishing off the Pittsburgh Pirates 8-6 on Wednesday.
After a delay of 2 hours, 18 minutes, the game was suspended Tuesday with the Pirates about to bat in the seventh. After the game resumed, relivers Bob Howry, Will Ohman and Ryan Dempster gave up one run in three relief innings and Jacque Jones doubled and scored an insurance runs with some heads-up basenunning in the eighth. Rocky Cherry (!-1) got two outs in the sixth for the victory.
As Matt Murton hit the throw on a two-out single to third baseman Jose Bastista, Jones kept running and scored before first baseman Adam LaRoche realized Jones had not stopped at third.
Derrek Lee had four hits, including two doubles and a run-scoring single in the ninth off John Wasdin. Dempster got the final four outs for his fifth save in as many opportunities despite allowing Chris Duffy's RBI double in the ninth.
Earlier — in this case, more than half a day earlier — Jones, Soriano and Floyd all honored as the Cubs won their fourth in fifth games. The Pirates dropped their third in four games.
While the game lasted longer than the required five innings to be official, it was suspended because the Pirates had not yet batted in the seventh. Baseball's suspension rules were changed during the offseason to pick up play at the point where a game was stopped, rather than going back to the last completed inning — in this case, the sixth, with the Pirates up 5-2.
Soriano, who signed a $136 million contract with Chicago as a free agent in the offseason, was coming off what he called the worst month of his career. But he needed only one at bat in May to equal his RBI total in April — one — when he homered over the center-field wall on Tony Armas' third pitch.
Soriano and Murton each doubled in the seventh to drive in a run ahead of Floyd's 451-foot drive that bounced into the Allegheny River behind the right-field seats for his second homer of the season. The homer was more impressive because Floyd took his at-bat with a steady rain falling.
The Cubs withstood a rough outing from Ted Lilly, who gave up three runs in the first while allowing only one ball out of the infield. Lilly also wound up on his backside twice while fielding bunts.
Tony Armas began the game with an 11.57 ERA to Lilly's 2.18, but limited the Cubs to two runs in six innings — solo homers by Soriano on his third pitch of the game and Jones in the second. Arms left with a 5-2 lead, but the usually reliable Pirates bullpen couldn't hold it in the seventh.
Murton had a pinch-hit double off John Grabow, and Soriano doubled off loser Jonah Bayliss (2-2), who gave up extra-base hits to three consecutive batters. Bayliss did not allow any of his 10 inherited runners to score in April.
Ronny Paulino singled and scored on Jack Wilson's sacrifice fly in the Pirates' second and hit a solo homer in the fourth.
NASCAR
Lack of resources creates stress for Evernham team
BY MIKE HARRIS ASSOCIATED PRESS
Ray Evernham and his team have seen better times.
So far, though, this season has been a nightmare for Evernham and all three drivers.
A year ago, Evernham Motorsports was by far the best Dodge team in NASCAR's Nextel Cup series. It was on course to put Kasey Kahne in the Chase for the Nextel Cup championship with six victories and six poles, and have Elliott Sadler and Scott Riggs wind up in the top 22 in season points. The expectations for 2007 were much higher.
"It's easy to go back and look at all the things that went wrong," Evernham said.
After the first nine races, Sadler leads the trio at 15th in the standings, while Kahne is 31st and Riggs 36th. Each has produced one top 10 this season, and the only one of those coming since the season-opening Daytona 500 was Riggs' eighthplace run at Martinsville.
The first thing to go wrong came at Daytona, where all three of Evernham's crew chiefs were caught cheating in a post-qualifying inspection.
Kenny Francis, crew chief for Kahne, was suspended four races and the No. 9 car was docked 50 points. Rodney Childers, crew chief for Riggs, and Josh Browne, crew chief for Sadler, were suspended two races and each of their teams lost 25 points.
"We got off base early in the season, obviously, with the loss of the crew chiefs, and our resources aren't as deep as they are at other places to
overcome something like that," said Evernham, a former championship crew chief.
He also pointed out that building both the current cars and NASCAR's new Car of Tomorrow, which will run a total of 16 races this season, has pushed his team to the limit.
"Let's face it," he added, "Dodge has been cutting back resources so, and I'm not complaining, but we probably don't have as many resources to develop two programs at one time.
"We've told everybody time and time again that the big companies with a lot of resources are going to be able to get things done faster. And Rick Hendrick showed how strong his company is, the way he's dominating this year, to be able to have enough people to develop two cars at one time, and come out and be kicking butt in both of them."
The Hendrick team has won six of the nine races, including three by reigning Cup champion Jimmie Johnson, one by Kyle Busch and the last two by Jeff Gordon, the fourtime champion and current points leader. Johnson, Busch and Gordon have swept the three COT races run thus far.
"That's just a tribute to Rick and his organization, but they also have a lot of resources." Everham said.
The slow start has been hard on his drivers, particularly a very frustrated Kahne, considered one of the bright young stars of the sport.
Evernham is hopeful that things are already beginning to turn around as they head for Richmond and another COT race this week. All three of his drivers were in the top 15 last Sunday at Talladega.

Ryan Villopoto, of Poulsbo, Wash., flies through the air after going off a jump in an AMA Supercross "Lites" series motorcycle race Saturday at Qwest Field in Seattle. Villopoto has rapidly risen to be dirtbike racing's next young star.
Rider goes from unknown to champ
BYTIM BOOTH ASSOCIATED PRESS
SEATTLE — Mike Fisher wasn't all that impressed the first time he saw Ryan Villopoto ride.
Fisher was in research and development at the time for Kawasaki, and Villopoto was a willing test subject for some durability research. Sure, Villopoto was fast. But in no way did Fisher imagine the scrawny, red-headed kid from the soggy Pacific Northwest dominating races a few years later.
Since that first impression, Villopoto rapidly has risen to be dirtbike racing's next young star. He rode in front of his hometown fans in Seattle last weekend, having already wrapped up the AMA Western Region Supercross Lites division championship with two races remaining.
"He was a good rider for sure, but in no way his first year did I think he would win a national championship at that time," said Fisher, now the head of Kawasaki's race teams.
That title followed his AMA Motocross Lites championship from
last summer, which brought comparisons to some of the greats in dirtbike racing. Winning seven of the eight races this winter and spring during the Supercross season has increased those expectations — exponentially.
"Ryan, he's obviously in that mold. He's talked about in the same vain as (Jeremy) McGrath and (Ricky) Carmichael and (James) Stewart, the ones that have dominated the most recent history of the sport," said Roy Janson, vice president of operations for Live Nation Motorsports, promoter of the AMA Supercross Series.
Villopoto's skill is beyond question. Before joining the professional ranks, the 18-year-old was an amateur star and the winner of the 2005 AMA Horizon Award for his amateur achievements.
ride in warm climates, where the riding conditions are optimal for yearround practice and development. Instead, Villopoto's formative riding years were spent on land his family owned in Poulsbo, Wash., a 35-minute ferry ride from Seattle.
When conditions outside were too wet to ride — which occurred often between November and April
— Villopoto was relegated to riding on courses inside horse arenas.
"I was really into racing arenacross," Villopoto said. "I didn't like to ride in a whole lot of mud."
But what makes Villopoto unusual is his background. He didn't learn to
"I was really into racing arenacross. I didn't like to ride in a whole lot of mud."
RYAN VILLOPOTO Dirtbike racer
became a a Kawasaki Team Green
amateur rider in 2002 — before his
14th birthday. He won 12 titles in
by sixth grade, Villopoto's family realized their son might have a future. in the sport and relocated to Southern California. There, his talented accelerated with the ability to train year-round.
Villopoto
2003 and 2004 and concluded his amateur career in 2005 with the Horizon Award. In his first season racing the Supercross Lites series, Villopoto finished third, before dominating the Motocross circuit, winning six times.
"I always see an improvement in his style, in his riding. He's always ascending." Fisher said. "If you watch him a year ago and came back and watched him again, you'd say, 'Wow, he's improved a lot.' I don't see him peaking or anything yet."
Despite fans clamoring to see just how well Villopoo would do riding in the top series against Stewart, a fellow Kawasaki rider, he's in no rush to make the move. Villopoo will try to defend his Motocross Lites title this summer, then do the same next winter in Supercross.
Fans got a little taste of the future last Saturday night at Qwest Field. Stewart and Villopoto rode together during the opening ceremony.
"I've got to get ready and I wouldn't be ready next year." Villopoto said.
"It's a totally different bike. It's heavier, got a lot more power, and it takes a lot more out of you to ride."

LOUISVILLE, Ky. - Curlin will have to overcome 19 rivals and a lot of history if he is to win the Kentucky Derby.
The unbeaten colt was installed as the slight 7-2 favorite Wednesday after drawing the No. 2 post position. Affirmed was the last Derby winner to win from that post, and he went on to sweep the Triple Crown in 1978.
Curlin labeled race favorite
Winner of the Arkansas Derby for his third straight victory, Curlin will be ridden by Robby Albarado in a full field of 20 3-year-olds going 1 1/4 miles Saturday.
Besides Curlin, trainer Steve Assmussen will saddle Zano, a 30-
Curlin has two big things going against him: he didn't race as a 2-year-old and has run only three races in his career. It's been 125 years since Apollo won after skipping his 2-year-old season, and not since the filly Regret in 1915 has such a lightly seasoned horse worn the blanket of red roses.
1 shot.
Tampa Bay Derby winner Street Sense was made the second choice at 4-1. Street Sense, last year's 2-year-old male horse of the year, will try to end the Juvenile jinx: no Breeders' Cup Juvenile winner has ever gone on to win the Derby, an 0-for-23 drought. Street Sense, with Calvin Borel aboard, will leave from the No. 7 post for trainer Carl Nafzger, who won the 1990 Derby with Unbridled.
Churchill Downs oddsmaker Mike Battaglia said it was "very, very close" between Curlin and Street Sense, and he gave the nod to Asmussen's colt.
"He's undefeated." Battaglia said. "We don't know how good this horse is, but he's just been dominating."
Trainer Todd Pletcher will try to end his 0-for-14 skid in the Derby with a record-tying five entries: Any Given Saturday, Circular Quay, Cowtown Cat, Sam P. and Scat Daddy.
Circular Quay was made the 8-1 co-third choice, along with Nobiz Like Shobiz, trained by Barclay Tagg.
who won in 2003 with Funny Cide. Circular Quay, who comes in off an eight-week layoff, will start in the No.16 post. Wood Memorial winner Nobiz Like Shobiz will leave from the No.12 post.
Florida Derby winner Scat Daddy was installed as the 10-1 fourth choice and will break from the No. 14 post.
Pletcher's other horses were not among the favorites. Any Given Saturday was listed at 12-1; Cowtown Cat and Sam P. were both 20-1.
While Pletcher has five entries, four other trainers have two horses in the field — Asmussen has Curlin and Zanjero; Doug O'Neill has Great Hunter and Liquidity; Darrin Miller has Dominican and Sedgefield; and Bill Kaplan has Storm in May and Imawildcrazyguy. Since the 20-horse rule began in 1984, the race went off with the maximum field twice — in 2005 when Giacomo won at 50-1 odds and last year when Barbaro won by 6 1/2 lengths.
Absent from this year's Derby will be trainer Bob Baffert, who sent out three horses last year.

I probably get more sleep than 95 percent of the people on this campus — students, professors and custodians included. My sleep schedule is highly regimented; in bed by 11 or so, up at 8 — nine solid hours a night, no messing around.

Sleep is a precious commodity on a college campus. Without nine hours of sleep each night I'm functionally illiterate, but not all students have the luxury of a good night's rest (mine often comes at the expense of homework and any semblance of a nightlife, to the great annoyance of my friends).

But hard as it may be to come by, sleep is important. As Sam Carlson documents in "More ZZZs, please," the amount of sleep we get each night affects everything from our ability to concentrate on homework to the (often unhealthy) eating habits we develop if we're tired. If you don't get enough sleep — and this may be the wrong time of the semester to think you can get more — there are a number of steps you can take to get a good night's rest, from a mid-afternoon workout to a hot shower late at night.

WRECKING
YOUR RIDE
After recovering from the initial shock of crashing your car, what do you do?
>
by Dani Hurst
ILLUSTRATION/CATHERINE COQUILLETTE
When I wrecked my car this summer, I thought the worst of it was the damage, the phone call to my mother and subsequent lack of a car for the foreseeable future. My car was totaled: the frame was bent, everything had flown out of the broken windows and was lying in the mud (it had just started to rain), and a crushed pit replaced my passenger side. The call to my mother was brief but highly emotional, especially because she had been asleep. As for getting another car, I'm still looking. What I discovered, however, was that this was just the beginning of a long, drawn-out and complicated process.
It was one of the worst ordeals of my life, mostly because I felt so helpless the entire time. No one had taught me what to do if I actually got into an accident. With the hopes of easing the pain of others, here are a few tips from experts and people who have lived through an accident, about what students should do when and if it happens to them.
First things first
After checking to make sure everyone involved is OK,
the first thing to do is call the police, says Kim Murphree records manager and media contact for the Douglas County Police Department. According to Murphree, Kansas Standard Traffic Ordinances state that all accidents — both injury and non-injury — that occur on public property with damage of $1,000 or more must be reported to the police. Additionally, most insurance companies require a police report to process claims, even if the accident occurs on private property. Because it doesn't take a huge impact to cause that sort of damage, a police report is usually necessary, Murphree says.
Rachelle Schneider, a former KU student, had such an accident where it didn't take much to total her car. According to Schneider,
it was mid-afternoon when she rear-ended a car in front of her on 23rd and Iowa Streets. Schneider says she asked the man in the car that she hit if he was all right, then called her mother, and then she called the police.
"It was very embarrassing," Schneider says, "and very stressful, especially since everyone was driving by and looking."
Get on your tows
If the accident leaves the car too damaged to drive, as it was in my case, the next step is to call a towing service. The most important thing to remember is that individuals have the right to call the towing service of their choice, says Michelle Moon, owner of A&M Towing and Recovery, 501 Maple St. Your insurance company can offer
you advice on which company to use, Moon says, but ultimately the choice is yours.
To decrease stress when the time comes to call a taw service, Moon suggests doing some pre-wreck research so you know exactly which service you want to call and about how much they'll charge. Moon's tip: even if you aren't a member of a motor club, you can still call them up and ask them for advice. That way, you're more likely to do business with a credible company.
Visit the body shop
Taylor Rubin. St. Louis senior, was driving back to Lawrence from St. Louis last fall in the pouring rain when she lost control of her car, rocketed from the right lane into the left lane and ended up backwards in the ditch. Because she was
between St. Louis and Lawrence and didn't know any auto body shops in the area, she took the advice of the police officers on the scene and had the car towed to a local shop.
Donita DeMersseman, office manager at Hite Collision Repair Center, Inc., 3401 W. Sixth St., says that although she doesn't know the specifics of Rubin's situation, many factors could have played a part in the prolonging of her car's work. First of all, she says, the repair shop can only do so much at a time. It takes time to order parts. DeMersseman says, especially if they are for a foreign car.
The most frustrating part of her ordeal, she says, was waiting for the auto body shop to finish work on her car. Rubin says they kept pushing back the finish date and she spent about three months without a car.

As far as the preliminary date goes, DeMersseman advises that people keep in mind that "the original estimate is just that: an estimate."
wrecked his 1978 Nighthawk motorcycle last September, he didn't get the police or insurance companies involved, mostly because he didn't have medical or motorcycle insurance. It had started raining, which made the road slick enough to cause the front tire to slip out from under him, Petterson says. The front tire was badly bent after the accident, Petterson says, but instead of taking it into a body shop, he just recruited a few friends to help him bend it back into place. It took him a little while to feel comfortable driving his motorcycle again, but he says he's now back on the road.
For do-it-yourselfers
For do you sellers
Some people take matters into their own hands if they deem the accident minor enough. When Mark Petterson, Prairie Village sophomore,
According to Petterson, he slid about 20-30 feet, with the bike on top of him the whole time. Petterson says that the heat from the engine burned his legs and one of the handlebars rammed into his chest. Aside from the scars on his legs, though, he suffered no permanent damage. Petterson says he is thankful that at least he was wearing his helmet and encourages everyone who rides a motorcycle to wear one.
"Riding a motorcycle is one of the stupidest things you can do," Pettterson says. "Not wearing a helmet is just ridiculous."

FOOD REVIEW
ICE CREAM
If you're in the mood for a sweet treat, look no further than downtown Lawrence. Jayplay scoured the sugar-littered street to find which ice cream most deserves a home in your belly.
BEN AND JERRY'S ICE CREAM 818 Massachusetts St. Regular cup $3.95
The thing about Ben and Jerry's ice cream is, there's just so much stuff in it.The company offers a few basic flavors,but most are so rich and multi-layered that your taste buds end up confused.
★★★
COLD STONE CREAMERY
647 Massachusetts St.
Small cup $2.95
Cold Stone gets points for allowing their customers freedom with a "we'll-put-just-about-anthing-together-for-you" approach and for employees who sing when tipped, but the ice cream itself lacks the creamy body necessary to satisfy a craving. Ice cream should never taste like it's good for you.
★★★
MIRTH CAFÉ
745 New Hampshire St.
Small cup $2.95

YOU ARE WHAT YOU WEAR... OUT
Dress your best for a great night out
It's Friday evening, the weekend is officially underway and Amy Chessir is putting on her favorite pair of leggings and a flowing empire waist dress to ready herself for a night out.
When the weekend comes, Chessir, Columbia, Mo., freshman, pulls out her favorite clothes to make an impression over the thumping music and chatter of patrons at local establishments.
After a long week of classes and cotton sweatpants she's eager to slip into something a little bit flashier for dinner and drinks out. After all, you are what you wear, because a good night can depend on the clothes (or lack thereof) on your back. When its time to dress to impress, an outfit can change you personality from the inside out.
Clothing can have an effect on someone's entire outlook; it's even significant enough to affect self-image. The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services recommends people dress in clothes that make them feel good about themselves as a way to boost self-esteem.
Likewise, what people wear can be a reflection of who they are, says Diana Pemberton-Sikes, an image consultant and owner of fashionforrealwomen.com.
"What you wear and how you wear it reveals so much about you, it's incredible," Pemberton-Sikes says. "From education level and religious affiliations to dating availability and probable income level, it's all revealed in what you wear."
From flashy jewelry and dresses to designer jeans and polo shirts, after a long week of classes and work uniforms, the chance to dress up for a night out can be a good change of pace for college students.
"I always dress super casually to class, and it makes me feel like I really don't care what I look like," Chessir says. "Dressing up makes me feel a lot cleaner, less lazy and I have tons more confidence. I'm definitely more outgoing when I'm dressed up."
Randi McGovern, manager at Britches Clothing Co., 843 Massachusetts St. ,says her store
"LOW-CUT TOPS AND SHORT
"LOW-CUT TOPS AND SHORT SKIRTS MAY HELP YOU ATTRACT A LOT OF ATTENTION AT A NIGHT CLUB, BUT THEY WON'T SCORE YOU ANY POINTS AT WORK OR FOR AN INTERVIEW UNLESS YOU'RE WORKING AT HOOTERS." DIANA PEMBERTON-SIKES IMAGE CONSULTANT
stocks embellished jeans, brightly colored dresses and big, flashy jewelry to help students dress to impress.
Chessir says flashiness and wearability are a few of the things she looks for in outfits for going out. She thinks these outfits make the biggest and brightest statement about herself in a crowded room of other dressed-up people.
Like Chessir, Julia Castellucci, Chanute senior, enjoys dressing up to get noticed at night. Style is an important factor in noticing and meeting someone when she's out, she says.
"When I see a guy with a hot style that I can see my own personality reflected in a little, I feel so much more comfortable trying to chat with him than someone whose style I don't find particularly pleasing to my eye," she says.
Whether dressing to meet a new date or to have fun with friends, flash and a hot style all contribute to getting noticed and feeling good. But Pemberton-Sikes cautions to pay attention to the social situation to project the best possible image.
"Because clothes reveal so much about you, wearing certain styles in certain situations can help or hinder your goals, depending on what they are," she says. "Low-cut tops and short skirts may help you attract a lot of attention at a night club, but they won't score you any points at work or for an interview — unless you're working at Hooters."
Whatever the goal,feeling good in the right clothes at the right time seems to be the first step to make the night memorable.

Make sure that you buy a product with broad-spectrum coverage that protects against both UVA and. UVB radiation, Wetter says. "The more protection the better," she says, so also look for products that contain titanium dioxide or zinc oxide, which physically block sunlight from penetrating the skin.

TEST
teenagers and young adults get more than nine hours of sleep a night. But take a full load of classes, add a part-time job, an extracurricular activity or two and a social life, and that eight- to nine-hour goal moves further and further out of reach.
"Most of the time when I don't sleep it's because of having to work really early," he says. Plus, he stays up really late. For example, Klein says he works from 9:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. on Saturdays, takes a break, then returns to work and bartends from 9 p.m. to 3 a.m. He back at it again at 10:30 on Sunday morning.
"My weekends are usually low sleep and constant work. And then by Sunday night I can usually catch up on it, and then it helps I don't have class until 1 on Monday," he says. "If I had an early class Monday, I might have flipped out by now."
Class, work, sleep, repeat
Jamie Klein, St. Charles, Mo., senior, says he usually sleeps about seven hours a night during the week, but gets less sleep on the weekends. Klein, who is majoring in philosophy, is kitchen manager and bartender at Quinton's Bar & Deli, 615 Massachusetts St. His 30-hour work week, paired with his class load, makes the recommended eight hours of sleep unrealistic, he says.
During the week, Klein says he is able to stay awake during classes, thanks in part to his laptop and his interest in the lectures. But Klein says fatigue sets in when he returns from school or work, which is why he relies on naps to give him a little boost.
Naptime
A nap can be a tired college student's best friend, but sometimes it can backfire.
"In the sleep world, sleep is a drug and naps are a dose of that drug, and you want to give the right dose to the right person at the right time," says Ronald E. Kramer,
1.
SWEAT YOUR WAY TO BETTER SLEEP
By throwing a little exercise into your schedule, your time asleep will be more restorative, says Ronald E.Kramer, a neurologist and board-certified sleep medicine physician in Denver.
"An hour in the gym probably will help your sleep and your cognitive functioning better than an extra hour of sleep without exercise, if you're
getting six [or more hours of sleep] a day," he says.
According to the National Sleep Foundation, workouts shouldn't be done too close to bedtime, as physical activity has an alerting effect on the body.The Foundation notes that some research suggests exercise is most beneficial five or six hours before bed.
a neurologist and board-certified sleep medicine physician in Denver.
Certain people, such as chronic insomniacs who can't even sleep well once during the day, should avoid naps and try instead to get their sleep all in one chunk, Kramer says.
For, the typical college student, however, Kramer says a short nap is a good idea.
In fact, when it comes to napping, less is more.
Naps should be kept under half an hour in duration, with one study even suggesting that the optimal nap time is 10 minutes, Gehrman says.
"You want to avoid getting into deeper stages of sleep because then it's hard to fully wake up from that," he says.
The short sleeper
For Lea Salvo, Council Bluffs, Iowa, senior, naps are out of the question. The pre-physical therapy student says she has never been able to take naps, which is why she relies on the age-old "good night's sleep" to get her through the day. She says that she usually goes to bed between 10:30 p.m. and midnight and gets up at 5 a.m. to run before getting ready for work. Salvo interss at Advance Rehabilitation in Topeka for 12 hours of class credit toward her degree.
"graduate school stuff,"she savs.
A shorter attention span, poor listening skills and an overall drag are signs of sacrificed sleep, she says. But those symptoms don't show up often; Salvo says she almost always feels rested during the day on her usual sleep of five or six hours. "On nights when I do stay up later and get less sleep, I seem to be more awake than if I get more sleep than I usually do," she says.
But Gehrman, the sleep expert in Philadelphia, says many short sleepers, although they might say they feel awake, could benefit from a little more sleep.
He cited one study that looked at people who claimed to function well on little sleep.The test showed,however,that the participants slept longer when given the chance.
"At some point you think you're adjusting to it," he says about shortened sleep schedules, "but in reality you're not. We're actually really poor at our ability to tell how much we're affected by sleep deprivation."
You can sleep,but you can't hide
For every set of drooping eyes looking toward the front of the classroom, there's a professor staring back. Perhaps no one on campus — except a student — sees the effects of sleep deprivation more than a professor.
reason for their sleepiness.The more time college students spend with TV, iPods and cell phones,the less time they spend studying — and sleeping.
"I think what happens, especially with all the technology we have, is that everybody tries to multi-task." Russo says. "Everything takes three or four times too long."
Russo says she doesn't perform as well at her job if she gets less sleep than her normal eight hours. "This is my pile of reading for today," she says, holding up a three-inch stack of papers. "This is the time of year when graduate students try to defend their comprehensive exams, theses and dissertations." Russo must read these projects and still make time for class work and grading, she says.
"Concentration is really important. You have to be able to just sit down and do it. And if I'm tired, my mind wanders," she says.
It seems simple enough. Sleep less, feel tired. Stay up late cramming for a test or hanging out with friends and expect to doze off in class the next day. But sleep deprivation can result in much more than yawning, heavy eyelids and irritability.
She says she often has a headache and scratchy eyes after a night of little sleep.
Sleep deprivation: the price we pay
Sleep regulates the hormones ghrelin and leptin, which help determine our feelings of hunger and fullness, respectively, according to the National Sleep Foundation. When sleep is cut short, it interferes with these hormones. That's why the link between a lack of sleep and obesity is one area that is gaining attention in sleep research.

behavioral changes that occur when you lose sleep that make you hungry," he says. "If you're not sleeping well, we are biologically programmed to look for food."
To make matters worse, the food that sleepy people go for is usually high in fat, sugar and salt, Kramer says.
The long sleeper
He also says that acute sleep deprivation — about four or less hours of sleep a night — can play a part in the "freshman 15."
At 9:30 on any given night, when many students haven't even given their homework a glance, Ruth Ann Atchely is probably sleeping.
"I sleep an abnormally large amount tor any individual," says Atchely, a cognitive neuroscientist and associate professor of psychology at the University who is beginning a line of research on sleep.
Preparing for better sleep
Atchley says it is not uncommon for her to sleep 10 hours a night during the week. As an undergraduate at The Ohio State University, Atchley says she lived at home and commuted to school each day with her father, who was a professor at the university. This structured environment allowed her to get a good amount of sleep, though her sleep schedule wasn't consistent, she says.
"If we could teach a major in time management, we could probably serve our students almost as well as with any other major we could offer them,"she says.
Her situation was atypical, as most students, especially those in residence halls, have many more distractions to keep them awake. But Achley says everyone can get eight hours a sleep a night if they budget their time wisely.
"I know I shifted my sleep patterns on Friday and Saturday night because I closed the bars just like everybody else," Aatchley says.
In line with the idea that sleep is a ritual, Gehrman recommends students set a sleep schedule and stick to it.
"Consistency is really important, especially keeping the timing relatively consistent, so the time you go to bed doesn't vary by hours from night to night," he says.
When it comes to sleep deprivation, Atchley places some of the blame on the poor "sleep hygiene" — a set of habits that can promote healthy sleep — that some students display.
Students who eat, do homework and play video games in bed could find it harder to fall asleep because psychologically the bed no longer is a place designated only for sleeping, she says.She says that activities such as routinely putting on pajamas and brushing one's teeth before bed can help students fall asleep more easily.
CAN'T SLEEP? TRY THIS
As a person sleeps, his or her body temperature drops, which is why Ruth Ann Atchley, associate professor of psychology, takes a hot shower before turning in for the night. The hot shower raises body temperature, and the drop afterward reinforces the body's natural process of falling asleep, she says.
Up all night
The all-nighter is the last resort for the seasoned procrastinator, but it might do more harm than good.
If you've put off writing that big paper until the last minute and you're considering pulling an all-nighter, you'd be better off sleeping at least a few hours. Kramer says.
"You probably should really give in and sleep from 3 to 6 a.m. when your body temperature drops like a rock and you can barely keep your eyes open," he says.
Body temperature naturally drops during sleep, so fighting that critical window is extremely detrimental to studying because the body is trying to go to sleep, Kramer says.
Asleep. Kind of.
Alcohol and caffeine work in different ways but each has a negative impact on sleep.
Although a person usually has no problem passing out after a night of drinking, the alcohol does not let your body reach the deeper stages of sleep, which is why a 10-hour sleep session after boozing leaves you feeling less than refreshed.
"It will make you go to sleep but then, as your body metabolizes the alcohol, the by-products that are produced actually destruct your sleep, so it's really poor quality." Gehrman says.
He says that caffeine also interferes with our sleep, even long after the buzz has worn off.
"Caffeine can actually last in your body up to 10 hours," he says.
Just because you feel tired, that doesn't mean the caffeine isn't working to keep your body alert and thus disrupting your sleep, he says.
Sweet dreams
As technology advances and the world becomes more connected every day, it doesn't appear our world — or campus — will slow down anytime soon.
"it's kind of assumed, but it's not scientifically proven, that all of society, adolescents and up, are losing more and more sleep as we move to a 24-hour society based a lot on Internet and electronic communication and work," says Kramer, the Denver sleep expert.
It looks like it's going to be a long night.

MY BOYFRIEND AND I JUST GOT ENGAGED, BUT I NOTICED HE STILL HAS ALL HIS OLD LETTERS AND PICTURES WITH HIS EX-GIRLFRIENDE. I FEEL LIKE HE SHOULD GET RID OF ALL THAT STUFF IF WE'RE GOING TO BE STARTING A NEW LEIF TOGETHER, BUT HE SAYS "THAT'S STUPID." I CAN'T HELP BUT FEEL BOTHERED BY THIS, THOUGH. WHO'S IN THE RIGHT HERE?
JENNA, SENIOR
Jenna, my hope is that there actually is something going on there to be worried about, because if not, you are really insecure. Insecure to the point where I fear for your future marriage, because it's not going to last long if you're going to be this jealous, controlling and, ultimately, needy.
So your boyfriend has a past. His past might even have big boobs and a nice smile, but the key word is "past." It's over. It ended for one reason or another, and now he actually proposed marriage to you, a big step for a man to make.
Just because he wants to keep the old photos and letters doesn't mean he's still harboring hopes of a reunion or having an affair. They're just life souvenirs. It
happened, and it's OK to acknowledge it. If he doesn't have any feelings for her, then keeping the pictures and photos isn't harming anything. If he does have feelings for her, then throwing out the letters and photos isn't going to change that.
If you're so insecure because you have real reasons to suspect that she's still in the picture, like he hangs out with her frequently, you know she's been wanting him back, he keeps things secret from you, etc... then you need to confront him and think twice about that ring on your finger. But please drop the photo thing. As long as he doesn't frame them and put them on the wall in your new home together, he's not doing anything worth giving a crap about.
MY BOYFRIEND HAS BEEN TALKING TO A LOT OF GIRLS ON MYSPACE. I CONFRONTED HIM
ABOUT IT, AND HE SAID THAT HE HASN'T ACTUALLY MET UP WITH ANY OF THE GIRLS IN PERSON,
AND THAT IT'S JUST NICE TO HAVE PEOPLE TO TALK TO. HE ALSO SAID IT'S NO DIFFERENT FROM
MAKING FRIENDS IN "REAL LIFE" AND ACCUSED ME OF NOT WANTING HIM TO MAKE NEW
FRIENDS. WHAT SHOULD I DO?
— ARIANA, SOPHOMORE
Do his new "friends" happen to have big boobs and MySpace names like "Stick it in Me"? If his new "friends" are all attractive females, then you have every right to feel as you do. Your boyfriend is disrespecting you and your relationship by spending this time online, messaging and chatting with these women. It doesn't matter that he hasn't met them in person...yet. If the conversation is that good, who knows where it could go from there? A bedroom most likely.
And it's not the same as making friends in "real life" because if he had a class with a girl, for example, and they sat next to each other every day, it only makes sense that perhaps they would develop a friendship
over grumbling about the professor, helping each other with homework, etc. But on MySpace, he's seeking out women to "befriend" (and probably bed) and there's an unspoken rule on social networking Web sites that they're just dating Web sites in disguise. If you meet someone on MySpace it sounds less pathetic than meeting them on Match.com.
Even if he really doesn't have any intentions, he's not being emotionally monogamous and he's putting himself in risky situations. Tell him to cut off the communication with the girls or you cut things off with him. Let him live happily ever after with "Delicious XXX."
I WANT TO SEE A COUNSELOR BECAUSE I FEEL MY RELATIONSHIP IS ROCKY, BUT COULD STILL WORK OUT. MY BOYFRIEND THINKS COUNSELING IS A WASTE OF TIME AND MONEY. WHAT SHOULD I DO?
You can't make your boyfriend go to counseling, but you can go to counseling alone. Oftentimes a counselor likes to see members of a couple individually anyway. Even if your boyfriend doesn't attend any sessions, if you change, then your relationship will change as well. He won't be able to deal with and react to you in the same ways he used to because you are not the same anymore. So your

changes will force him to change. You have more power than you think.
As Ghandi said, *be the change you wish to see in the world... or in this case, your relationship.*

THE OTHER TWO
Twenty-three students at KU who don't hail from the lower 48 states
by Anne Weltmer
For the 2006-2007 school year, 18,533 of 26,773 KU students came from Kansas; only 10 students came from Alaska and 13 from Hawaii. It make sense; Alaska is more than 2,700 miles away as the bird flies and Hawaii is more than 3,800.
The few students who made themmovefromwhatmanypeople
consider hot vacation spots to the landlocked Midwest came for many different reasons, but they have one thing in common: They all liked Lawrence and the University of Kansas enough to move thousands of miles away from their families, friends and everything they knew. Here are some of their stories.
Rick Chase plans to return to Hawaii, in part because he misses surfing every day.
NOVELTY ROAD-TRIPPER Rick Chase
Kahaluu, Hawaii, senior
Rick Chase followed a longer path than most to get to the University.After graduating from high school, he trained as an Emergency Medical Technician and worked until he was offered a semi-professional football job on his home island of Oahu.
Because of an injury, he was unable to continue playing and learned about the University from an alumnus who administered his physical therapy.
"I'd never see a Jayhawk or anything," he says.
After the alumnus convinced him that the University was a great place to be, he got a scholarship from the state of Hawaii that helped him pay tuition as long as he came
back during his trips home and taught Hawaiian language and culture to children.
Although Chase hates winter (besides the novelty of seeing his first snow), he likes the pretty campus and town, and met his fiance, who is also Hawaiian, at the University. He's finishing his degree in American Studies in 2008, but plans to stay a few more years and join the police force here.
Meanwhile, he can take road trips that he couldn't ever do in his home state. He celebrated Mardi Gras in New Orleans twice before Hurricane Katrina, and thoroughly enjoys being able to drive anywhere he wants to vacation instead of being forced to take a boat or plane.
He will go back to Hawaii eventually, he says; it's his home, and he misses surfing every day.
Matt Luthi bundled up during his childhood just outside of Anchorage.
MATTHEW AND CATHERINE
CITY-LIFE SEEKER
Matt Luthi
Palmer, Alaska, junior
Matt Luthi was almost born on St. Lawrence Island in the Bering Strait, delivered without a hospital or a doctor. Almost. Instead he was born in Pittsburg, Kan., where his grandparents live, because his mom wanted to give birth in a hospital.
Until he came to Lawrence, Luthi had never lived in a "big city." He lived on the northern coast of Alaska far above the Arctic Circle, where it's light out 24 hours a day, and in a small town outside of Anchorage.
His summer jobs have been high paying and a little out of the ordinary. He spent 35 days one summer counting every single
salmon that swam past him in the river with two co-workers for 24 hours a day from a watch tower. They were dropped food by air and took shifts counting. Sometimes, he says, he couldn't even leave the tower because bears were waiting at the bottom for him if he went down, and the water in the river was so cold he didn't bathe for the entire 35 days. It was worth the $18 per hour he made, though, he says.
"It's everybody's goal in Alaska to just get out of there," he says."Being down in the lower 48, there are just so many more opportunities."
He met his objective of getting out of the wilderness by coming to the University of Kansas after his freshman year at the University of Alaska at Anchorage. He'd been following KU sports for as long as
he could remember because his grandparents lived in Kansas.
He says he misses dog mushing, one of many sports he did in Alaska, and remembers his lead dog, Tony Danza, and the rest of the team named after Who's the Boss? characters. He's also hunted bear, moose, caribou, whale and seals, although he says he never could bring himself to kill a seal because of the "barbaric" method used to kill them, which involves dressing in seal fur and clubbing the animals to death.
Luthi is now in pre-pharmacy and says he has no idea what he'll do after he graduates. He says Alaska has its perks, like getting paid by the U.S.government to just to live there, but he's not homesick. For now, he says he's enjoying the bustling city life.

KU MUSIC MOVED HER Eileen Gitter Fairbanks, Alaska, senior
Visiting a homesick friend, Eileen Gitter came to the University two years ago for the first time. She sat in on a few music education classes — her own major back at University of Alaska at Fairbanks — and was inspired.
Thinking at first of switching her own major, she instead decided to spend the next two and a half years finishing her degree in Lawrence. She plays flute in a 20-person section instead of four like in Alaska, and says the competition pushes her to be better.
She says her favorite thing about Kansas is autumn, but it's well worth giving up to be

closer to her family again. She says her father's military service took her family all over while she was growing up, but she's never lived far away from her immediate family. The hardest thing about being at school is that she can't always go home when she needs to, such as when her father was in the hospital unexpectedly.
She says she loves Alaska and intends to move back and get a teaching job this May. After graduation, she's road tripping back with her sister.
"Ilovethatthere's civilization, but you can go out into the wilderness," she says about Alaska. "I'm used to having a moose in my front yard." She says she's even seen moose playing in her sprinkler.
KANSAS DREAMIN'
Eric Meyer Fairbanks, Alaska sophomore
Eric Meyer came to the University of Kansas because it was affordable and well-known among Alaskans — and because of the tornadoes.
"I like it here. It's a different environment," he says about the flatlands and severe weather.
Meyershe thoughtabout attending a handful of schools in the lower 48,but ultimately chose the University because of the people who stood out
when he visited here.
He misses home a little and calls his parents every weekend,but because a plane ticket can cost over $500,he only goes home twice a year: over Christmas and during the summer, he says. This summer he'll fly home after school gets out and road trip back to Kansas within a week to make it back to work in Lawrence all summer.
He's enjoying the larger town atmosphere — Fairbanks has a little more than 30,000 people—and the laid-back lifestyle, although he still mountain bikes on trails throughout
Lawrence, a hobby he brought with him from home. He says the trails in Kansas are challenging enough to keep him busy.
Eric Meyer went camping with his family before he left Alaska to attend KU.
ALEXANDRA AND BENJAMIN
Kahana Bay
JAYHAWK GETAWAY Jamie Nishimura Mililani Town, Hawaiian, junior
For Jamie Nishimura Hanalei Bay on the island of Kauai was close to home.
Although she came to the University to get away from Hawaii and other Hawaiians who went to school on the West Coast, Jamie Nishimura ended up finding friends in other Hawaiian KU students.
She likes the small town atmosphere and the cheap
living expenses compared to Oahu, where nearly everything has to be imported, but she ultimately chose the University because she'd been here before: During her freshman year in high school, she came to KU for three weeks for the Duke University Talent Program.
Nishimura, a microbiology major, is now sitting out the last few months of the year that the University of Kansas requires
for out-of-state students to gain residency. She made the decision after paying two years of out-of-state tuition and joining the Air Force National Guard while struggling to keep up with her busy schedule, and says that this is the right year to take some time off to work.
She says that having four seasons was a novelty at first, but now the winters here seem to get longer and longer. Nishimura misses her family, but has made a group of dependable, caring friends who have helped her avoid homesickness, including a few fellow Hawaiian KU students. She says she intends to move back to Hawaii after her time in the AFNG is up.

Kendall Day
Year: 1999
Hometown:
St. Francis
Degree: Italian
Back in the day: After growing up in a small town, Day arrived at KU nervous and excited to branch out and meet new people in a range of organizations. During the school year, he could be seen walking backward on campus as a student ambassador or working in the office of the Center for Community Outreach. Like Jayhawks of all ages, Day loved basketball games and hanging out by the lake. During summers, he stayed busy studying abroad in Florence, Italy, and greeting freshmen as an orientation assistant for two years. When Day graduated, he earned the Agnes Wright Strickland Award, given in recognition of his academic
record and leadership skills.
The grad life: After graduation, Day began law school at the University of Virginia in Charlottesville, Va. He knew he wanted to end up working in Washington, D.C., and the university offered a great transition into life on the East Coast. He found that his unusual degree from KU helped open "funny doors" for him, like being offered an internship at a branch of an American law firm in Rome after his second year of law school.
Today: After spending a year working as a law clerk for a federal
district judge in Baltimore, Day took a job at the U.S. Department of Justice in the Public Integrity Division. Even though he's been in the position for less than four years, he has prosecuted corruption crimes involving the infamous Jack Abramoff and says he has no plans to leave in the near future.
MUSIC THAT MOVES YOU
He says: Study abroad! Studying in Florence helped Day decide on his major because he loved the Italian culture he was immersed in during his six-week stay, so he recommends the program to every undergraduate.

Why college students have plastic surgery. dsey St. Clair
After being diagnosed with scoliosis, a Sioux Falls, S.D., graduate student had to have her spine reconstructed, causing one of her breasts to become larger than the other. Although her parents supported her decision to have a breast augmentation, she thought about it for years because of the risks involved and waited until she was 21 to have the procedure done.
Breast reduction is the most common surgery for college-aged males. About 15 percent of males between the ages of 12 and 20 have enlarged breast tissue because of a hypersensitivity to the small amount of estrogen in their bodies. Because patients can be relatively thin and skinny, male breasts can be especially embarrassing. These males often try to avoid social situations in which they have to take their shirts off, such as in PE class or at the pool, Moore says. The second-most common procedure for college-aged males is rhinoplasty.
Most people have plastic
surgery because they think something doesn't match the rest of their bodies, Moore says. For example, he performed rhinoplasties on two collegeaged females this year whose noses were out of symmetry with the rest of their faces. A good candidate for plastic surgery is generally happy but believes they would be more in balance if they fixed one defect, he says.
Moore turns away about 10 percent of patients he sees, usually people who don't need surgery and won't see a difference afterward or people who want plastic surgery for the wrong reasons and believe it will change their lives, save a romance or land them the perfect job. He also denies people who erroneously believe that he can make them look perfect.
One of the hardest parts about being a plastic surgeon is holding patients' hands and reassuring them during their recovery periods, Moore says. That's why it's important that he choose patients who are stable enough to handle the procedure.
After having plastic surgery, many patients have more self-confidence, improved self-esteem, and are more comfortable with themselves

and their bodies. Studies have shown that after receiving plastic surgery for breast and nasal deformities, patients are treated better by children and co-workers.
"Correcting an overlarge nose is often a life-changing procedure," says Robert Kotler, a surgeon and author of Secrets of a Beverly Hills Cosmetic Surgeon. "When done at a young age, it proves to be a substantial investment."
Unfortunately, sometimes things don't always go as planned. A Nevada, Mo., senior,
her mom and sister all wanted breast augmentations, so they decided to go through with the procedure together. After visiting several plastic surgeons, they decided on a doctor who was supposed to be one of the best in the Kansas City area.
She says she wanted to go from a B to a small D; when all was said and done, she ended up with double Ds. Now she's suing her doctor and will have to wait at least two years to have the procedure redone. People interested in plastic surgery should make sure they're on the same page as their doctor, be very open and clear and let them know exactly what they want, she says.
There are other drawbacks to plastic surgery, including cost; breast augmentations and rhinoplasty both cost well over $3,000. Also, as with any surgery, there are risks and painful recovery periods involved.
About 50 percent of people who come into Moore's offices feel guilty about making themselves look better, he says. They think they're being frivolous, yet they'll spend thousands of dollars a year on clothing, cosmetics or a certain car to improve their feelings of self-worth and appearance, he says. "The only stumbling point is, then, is it worth an operation to make you feel better about yourself," he says.
For the Sioux Falls, S.D., graduate student, the operation was well worth it. She says the general reaction to her breast augmentation was positive and has helped her with relationships. "I look like a woman, finally," she says. If someone is thinking of having plastic surgery, she suggests they think about it and do it for the right reasons. "Don't do it for your boyfriend because he wants bigger boobs," she says.

MOVIE
How do you follow a comedy as perfectly executed as 2004's Shaun of the Dead? If you're the winning team of director Edgar Wright and actors Simon Pegg and Nick Frost, apply the same formula to the cop genre, producing the even greater Hot Fuzz.
Pegg plays Sergeant Nick Angel, a London cop who is so good at his job that he's making the rest of the department, including his superiors, look bad. To compensate, they transfer him to the sleepy town of Sanford, where everyone knows each other and the only emergency call involves a missing swan. There, he's teamed up
with Danny Butterman (Frost), who does exactly what the job requires of him: nothing.
While on the "beat," the team discovers a number of suspicious accidents. As the accidents become more frequent, Butterman and Angel actually do some investigative work and encounter more than they bargained for.
have seemly created a new genre;the smart parody film.
For a filmmaking team to not fall into the sophomore slump and actually outdo their first picture is a rarity in Hollywood, but in this case, Hot Fuzz puts Shaun of the Dead to shame. Director Edgar Wright and company
The film is hilarious, but Wright's stylish direction deserves acclaim as well. That direction, along with the writing, puts the film above parody much like Shaun of the Dead. These guys love the movies they're poking fun at and that affection earns Hot Fuzz its five stars.

MUSIC by Blonde Redhead
23, Blonde Redhead's first release since 2004's Misery Is a Butterfly, finds the band once again delving into exciting new territory.
The albumopens with "23," which has a driving drumbeat and catchy melody. It sets the groundwork of dreamy textures mixed with intricate rhythms. Lead vocalist Kazu Makino's airy voice provides a psychedelic

feel that compliments the eclectic music. Her lyrics are usually unintelligible, but that doesn't seem to hurt the band. Amedeo Pace, who also plays guitar, provides the lead vocals on "SW,""Spring and By Summer Fall" and "Publisher," adding another exciting quality to the band.
Blonde Redhead tries out a variety of moods, in the bittersweet "My Impure Hair," the confused "Top Ranking" and the up-tempo "Silently." This gives the album variety, something that is lacking from a lot of releases.
A combination of foot- tapping drumbeats mixed with atmospheric music makes 23
- one of the most interesting releases of 2007.

SMALL SURPRISES
Working with kids became the best part of my days in college
I spend a portion of each day speaking in a language most people wouldn't understand. I repeat phrases such as, "Use your words" and "We don't hit our friends, we give soft touches," with such regularity that the words linger in my speech long after I leave the company of small children. I've perfected my very own "teacher's voice" — a voice that with one sound can be calming, authoritative and intimidating. As often as college students say "dude" or "like," I use words like "potty," "poopy" and "potty chair."
I've sat through an entire lecture with ketchup on my neck—a battle wound from serving lunch to people who consider chicken nuggets in the shapes of dinosaurs fine dining and who drink their milk from a spoon. Countless pairs of my jeans have ended up in the back of my closet, the lower portions of them stained with a rainbow of paint smudges and miniature handprints. And I've suffered
through more bouts of cold and flu in the last three years than ever before in my life.
These are just a few of the perks of working with children.
Children all less than 3 years old, to be exact.
It's been almost three years since I hastily applied to work at a local day care center. I had little experience working with kids, and my only expectations for the job were flexible hours

and a little bit of spending money. The memory of my first day in the classroom is a blur. The endless wave of runny, sticky noses and the restless group of boys who ran in circles around the room, growling like dinosaurs until their faces flushed pink and they could
open their small mouths no further, convinced me that my time with these toddlers wasn't going to last.

later and three years into my work as a teacher's aide, the kids I never expected to be more than a job have become the best parts of my days. With only weeks until graduation, my time in Lawrence — and at the center — is running out, and it will be those
red, roaring dinosaur faces, tiny paint-stained hands and the surprises they bring with them that I will miss the most.
In college, learning the skills necessary to enter the profession of your choice is the objective. And in high school the goal is to acquire enough knowledge to get into college. But in early-aged child development, learning to go to the bathroom in the potty chair rather than in your Pampers is the ultimate goal.
Much of the day in the toddler room is centered on this single mission. Parents say goodbye to their children each morning with a kiss and a reminder to "Make potties in the potty chair!" As a teacher's aide, I spend as much time and energy wrestling kids in and out of diapers and training pants as I do leading art activities or patrolling the playground.
Years ago, after my first few weeks at the center, the lead teacher deemed me capable of individually escorting all the 2-year-olds through potty time. And as someone who could barely decipher the front from the back of a diaper, I was more than a little nervous to be in charge of this potty-time responsibility.
But the process seemed
SPEAK
IF I COULD HANDLE AN HOUR OF SAYING THINGS LIKE "PUSH OUT THAT POOPY, AIDAN!" AND PEELING SOILED CINDERELLA TRAINING PANTS OFF OF TEARY-EYED AND FIDGETY 2-YEAR-OLDS, I COULD HANDLE ANYTHING.
Step two: Sit him on the miniature, doll-sized toilet and encourage him to make a potty in the potty chair.Be sure to reiterate that if he can manage to make a poopy he will be awarded a prize from the treasure chest, a wrappingpaper-clad shoebox tattered by years of small hands eagerly rummaging through its contents of stickers and pencils.
When it was time for the final kid to potty, I was feeling confident. If I could handle an hour of saying things like "PUSH out that poopy, Aidan!" and peeling soiled Cinderella training pants off of teary-eyed and fidgety 2-year-olds, I could handle anything.
simple enough. Step one: Wrestle the child out of his outfit smeared with food and the fiery red paint he thought would be better suited on his pants than on his paper during that day's art center.
Then it was Max's turn. He
slid out of his dinosaur shoes and marker-stained sweat pants and hoisted himself onto the potty chair with the ease of a professional. Thinking this kid knew more about the potty process than I did, I turned away from the area for a moment to catch my breath and celebrate what seemed to be my imminent potty-training triumph. Moments later I turned back to find Max bent over, elbow deep in the toilet bowl.

"MAX! I yelled as I lunged toward him, "Where do our hands go when we're on the potty chair?" His head was still upside down, his thick curls spiraling toward the scene of the crime. I grabbed his shoulders and straightened his small frame. But before looking at his hands, with all the calm I could muster, I asked if he'd been playing with his poopies.
"No," he answered, "I was playing with my big penis."

kid with his hands dug deep in the toilet bowl is playing with poopies. But it's even more likely that as you wipe the grime from his hands, he will say something so funny that the panic that swept through your body when you saw his small, curious hands disappear into the white porcelain potty chair will dissolve completely.
In a job I never expected to have — let alone enjoy — surprises such as this one and countless other quick, stolen moments shared with my kids while reading a story, singing a song or using the potty chair, have brought me more joy than anything I ever could have planned for or predicted.
If I've been having a terrible day, the moment I step through the door at work I have 20 comedians all clamoring below my hip to capture my attention and make me laugh. I'm pretty sure I won't have that perk when I enter the "real world," and I'm sure going to miss it.

》 BOARDWALK TRIAL
Rose continues to deny arson
In videotaped questioning, Rose says he burned only a piece of paper
BY ERICK R. SCHMIDT
The jury in the Boardwalk Apartments fire trial continued to watch more than 10 hours of give-and-take, back-and-forth video-taped questioning of Jason Allen Rose on Thursday. Rose's history of setting fires as a teenager was at the center of interviews in which Rose repeatedly insisted that he did not start the deadly fire. Eventually,
Rose admined that he had set on fire a piece of paper that contained a phone number from a man named "Star" and that the piece of paper caught wooden railing on fire.
Rose is accused of starting the boardwalk Apartments fire, which killed residents Jose Gonalez. Helen "Yolanda" Riddle and K student Nicole Bingham. Rose is charged with aggravated arson, three counts of murder and seven counts of
aggravated battery. The case originally went to trial in February but was declared a mistrial because of a late-surfacing witness.
The interrogation began Oct. 10, 2005, just two days after the deadly fire and continued for nearly seven hours the following day. In the interrogation, Rose was questioned by Police Detective Troy Squire of the Lawrence Police Department and Christy Widener of the U.S. Bureau
of Alcohol, Firearms, Tobacco and Explosives. They asked Rose several questions about a series of fires he was accused of setting while growing up in group homes.
The interrogation was taped in a span of two days in separate sessions, just two days after the fire.
Squire and Weidner continued to question Rose through long gaps of

The sound of international music, the smell of catered snacks and the promise of a free T-shirt lured a soulful crowd to the Spencer Art Museum on Thursday night. The "Student Night and Party" was the museum's student night, an event held every year.

"We chose about 10,000 of 20,000 pieces of art to be in the 20/21 Gallery" Graf said. "We even had an impartial artist come from New
York to help with the exhibit."
"I've been here for lots of things, like openings and lectures," Birmingham said. "I think if events like this bring in more students than would normally come, then it's a success."
Sally Birmingham, Spring Hill junior, said she's not a stranger to the museum.
That was the goal for the Spencer Student Advisory Board. Megan Graf, St. Louis senior and volunteer for the Board, said the point of holding events like student night was to attract students who normally wouldn't visit the museum.
Kim Brook, president of the Student Advisory Board, said the museum strived to reach the University campus to attract them to things like lectures and gallery openings. The student night and party was one effective way to do this.

Event aims to curb violence
BY MATT ERICKSON
Twice this winter, Lawrence homeless people were beaten in random, violent attacks by adolescent males.
Now, two graduate students want to prevent more attacks from happening.
Shannon Williams and Jenn Holtaway, both master's students in social work, have organized a demonstration to take place Saturday afternoon in South Park to raise awareness of violence against homeless people.
"We're just trying to bring awareness that these attacks are happening, and that they're happening in Lawrence," Williams said.
Random attacks on homeless people have become more common nationwide. The attackers sometimes refer to the practice as "bum bashing."
In 2006, 142 of these attacks were reported across the country. a 65 percent increase from the year before, said Michael Stoops, director of the National Coalition for the Homeless.
Some of those victims were raped, beaten with weapons or set on fire, and 20 of them were killed.
"That's just disturbing to me," Williams said. "That's 20 individuals who died for no apparent reason except for (someone's) joy and entertainment."
For their demonstration, called "Bag the Violence," Williams and Holtaway are collecting sleeping bags to represent each of the 142 victims of homeless violence last year, as well as the two Lawrence victims this winter. The demonstration will run from noon to 2:30 p.m.

Students ready lander prototype
BY BRIAN LEWIS-JONES
If everything goes as planned next Saturday, a Mars Lander prototype will fall 500 feet from a helium-filled balloon by parachute, fire three simple model rocket engines to slow its decent and softly land upright at a Clinton Lake radio control airfield.
Then the Lander's ramp will open, an American flag will flip up and a small rover will creep out that will image the terrain with its two attached cameras.
Ben Parrott, Overland Park senior and systems engineer for the Mars Trekker project, said the endeavor received skepticism from some professors, but the team of students
remained optimistic during the venture.
The Lander, planned, designed and constructed by University of Kansas engineering students, began development in September 2006.
The team, Simulated Operational Lander And Rover Integrated System (SOLARIS), is composed of 16 aerospace engineering students including two graduate students. Parrott said the close-knit group worked on the six-pound Lander with a $2,500 budget as a two-semester Space Systems Design class project.
"None of us had done anything like this, a project of this magnitude," he said.
"With the workload, it's tough to
have fun," Parrott said, "but we try."
Trevor Sorensen, associate professor of aerospace engineering, has been teaching and guiding the students in what he calls a "very complicated mission."
He said the Lander was a demonstration of concepts and techniques that could be used on a real Mars Lander.

"I still have concerns about the whole project," Sorensen said. "It's so complicated on the first attempt that I don't think everything will go as planned. The more we test, the more chance at success we have."
Elizabeth Gregory, Topeka senior who is mission control director and ground station lead engineer, said

Pornography cuts into Disney's 'Handy Manny'
MIDDLETOWN, N.J. — Children here got more than they bargained for when they tuned in to "Handy Manny" on the Disney Channel this week — hard-core pornography.
Cable giant Comcast is investigating how the porn was broadcast during the popular cartoon, which
is about a bilingual handman,
Manny Garcia, and his talking tools
Customer Paul Dunleavy was stunned Tuesday morning to find his 5-year-old son watching the broadcast.
"It was two people doing their thing; it was full-on and it was disgusting," the father of three told The New York Daily News.
Comcast spokesman Fred DeAndrea confirmed that the programming error occurred around 9:30 a.m. Tuesday. He declined to provide the duration of the porn broadcast but described it as an "isolated issue in a local New Jersey facility."
A Disney Channel spokeswoman said the company has asked Comcast for assurances that appropriate measures were taken to prevent such situations in the future.

Police investigate man accused of boiling skulls
CHICAGO — Four human skulls were discovered in a man's apartment, one boiling in a pot of water, but authorities said charges aren't likely.
"It doesn't seem to be anything nefarious at this time," police Lt. Perry Nigro said. The 26-year-old owner of the skulls makes anatomical models for a living and appeared to be using them for medical numbers. Nigro said.
"As weird as it is, it doesn't seem like anything is wrong," Nigro said.
Police searched the apartment after someone who wanted to buy a mannequin in the home visited late Tuesday and saw the skulls on a porch and inside, with one boiling on the stove.
The man left and called police, Nigro said.
The skulls were turned over to the Cook County medical examiner's office, Nigro said.
The skulls' owner told authorities that he imported them legally from China.

SAFETY Morning fire alarm gives Budig students break
Several hundred students waited outside Budig Hall on Thursday after blaring sirens and flashing lights caused an evacuation of the building right as classes were scheduled to begin at 9:30 a.m.
Jim Saladin, Lawrence Fire Department, said that after inspecting a control panel he was able to determine that either dust or moisture in a duct set off the fire alarm. The fire department reset the system and students began meandering back into the building about 9:50 a.m.
University Police Officer Jack Campbell arrived at Budig Hall three or four minutes after the alarm was triggered. He said he followed the fire department around and did not see a fire.
"No biggie," Campbell said.
Jason Cook, Dodge City junior, said he had been waiting since 9:15 a.m. for his Accounting 200 class to begin in Budig 120. He said he didn't noticed any strange smells or sights when sirens sounded.
While he studied an open notebook near the south entrance to Budig Hall, he said he used the 20-minute evacuation to do some extra cramming for an accounting quiz.
"I'm taking advantage of the fire drill, I guess." Cook said.
"Everybody was happy," Renfro said.
Sean Renfro, Wichita junior, was in the same accounting class preparing to take a quiz about bonds when the alarm sounded.
A statistics class in Budig 110 was cancelled about 9:45 a.m. because of the evacuation.

Graf said the low number of classes offered in the museum and its out-of-the-way location were reasons why few students visited. She said she didn't think people realized how many pieces of art the museum has, estimating there to be "tens of thousands" of pieces.
Doug Kiene and Haley Jones, Shawnee freshmen, critique a piece of art during Thursday night's Destinations exhibit in the Spencer Museum of Art. Each guest received a passport and was encouraged to view the different exhibits throughout the museum.

Both attacks occurred during the day.
"We need to be alert as a community to this;" Henderson said.
One Lawrence attack occurred near the Lawrence Public Library, while the other happened behind the buildings on the west side of Massachusetts Street's 800 block. Henderson said one of the attacking groups used the words "bum bash" while attacking — a term used in a series of underground videos of attacks on homeless people.
Holtaway said she hoped the demonstration would also prompt more compassion for homeless people.

The taped confession is a key point for Rose's defense. His attorney, Ron Evans, contends that Rose was coerced into a confession.
During opening statements Tuesday, Evans portrayed Rose as a young man brought up in environment of instability. He said Rose had suffered a childhood of abuse and that the "$64,000 question" in the case was whether he had been treated fairly in questioning.
The trial is expected to last up to two weeks, with today being the fifth day. The jury will likely see the conclusion of the interrogation during this morning's session, which is scheduled to begin at 9 a.m.
"They didn't know what effects their questioning would have on him." Evans said.

One of the tests involved three gumdrops; purple, red and yellow. Jenkins said most people expected the colors to taste a certain way: grape, cherry and lemon, respectively. When the audience members tasted each gumdrop, there were looks of surprise on their faces.
To test the audience's flavor sensitivity, jenkins gave the audience three different "taste tests" depending on smell, color and genetic taste-bud makeup.

Green tea also has different colors that can change the expectations of the flavor. Lauren McCoy, Overland Park junior, said she didn't know green tea had such an array of colors.

"Many people, even the trained panelists, are from Kansas and aren't used to eating seaweed or anything with a fish taste in it," Lee said. "They would say 'this just takes fish'."

A tea with a seaweed label would contain aromatics associated with shellfish, fresh fish and ocean vegetation. Lee said most people had a hard time differentiating a seaweed or fishy taste because they grew up away from the smell of the sea.
Kansas State researchers define green tea attributes
The buses from California have been guaranteed to be on campus by August 1.
Another researcher, Alicia Jenkins, Kansas State graduate student, said many things affected perception of flavor, which was comprised of all of the senses and other factors such as personal experience, age, abuse, health and genetics.
TASTE TEST
Kaiser said there were two contracts pending for three and five buses out of Minnesota. Those eight buses, 1994 models, were last used in Denver.
The assistants shared the science and analysis of their study with the KU community Thursday in the Kansas Union.
A specific lexicon that can be used for describing the flavoring of green teas was developed by research assistants for the Kansas State University Sensory Analysis Center and will be published next month.
The taste testing used descriptive sensory analysis, which involved the detection and description of a product. The audience was given two samples of teas to taste, and then described them based on the attributes. The first sample was yellow, and the audience described it as having a seaweed and green flavor.
Jee Hyun Lee, the principal investigator of the study, said the growing popularity of green tea had given people different interpretations of the taste of green tea.
Campus fees make impact
"We wanted to develop a lexicon for describing green tea, including a definition and reference for each attribute," Lee said. "If I say green, we will all agree to the definition, and the reference."
Kaiser said the buses would have the same color scheme as the current Park and Ride buses.

an agreement early Friday on the best ways to combat climate change despite efforts by China to water down language on cutting destructive greenhouse gas emissions.
The closed-door debate over everything from nuclear power to the cost of cleaner energy ran into the early morning hours with quibbling over single words or phrases at times. But consensus was eventually reached on a report by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, a U.N. network of 2,000 scientists and delegates from more than 120 nations.
"It's all done," said Peter Lukey, a member of the South Africa delegation. "Everything we wanted to see was there and more. The message is: We have to do something now."
China, the world's second-largest greenhouse gas emitter after the United States, took a strong stance during the four-day meeting in Thailand. Along with India and other rapidly developing countries, it had pushed to raise the lowest target level of carbon dioxide in the world's atmosphere over fears it would hinder their roaring economies, delegates said.
The draft proposed a cap on con
centrations of greenhouse gas levels ranging from 445 parts per million to 650 parts per million, but China wanted the lower range stricken from the report over fears it would hinder its economy, Muller said.
"The Chinese are resisting a lot, and a lot of countries are hiding behind the Chinese position," Michael Muller, Germany's viceminister for the environment, told reporters before the agreement was reached.
The report is the third segment of an overall IPCC blueprint that will shape the way the world tackles global warming.
The final version was not made available when the meeting broke around 4:30 a.m. Friday, but delegates said it largely resembled a draft version that said emissions can be cut below current levels if the world shifts away from carbon-heavy fuels like coal, embraces energy efficiency and significantly reduces deforestation.
"The strong message (from the report) is that it's possible to stabilize greenhouse gas emissions at the level where severe climatic change can be avoided," said Lars Nilsson, a delegate from Sweden.
VENEZUELAN FINANCE Chavez threatens private banks with nationalization
CARACAS, Venezuela — Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez on Thursday threatened to nationalize the country's banks and largest steel producer, accusing them of unscrupulous practices.
"Private banks have to give priority to financing the industrial sectors of Venezuela at low cost," Chavez said. "If banks don't agree with this, it's better that they go, that they turn over the banks to me, that we nationalize them and get all the banks to work for the development of the country and
It was not clear if Chavez was only referring to Venezuelan banks like Mancantil Servicios Financieros CA and Banco Provincial SA, or if he was also aiming the threat at major international banks with subsidiaries in the country, such as Citigroup Inc. and Spanish banks Banco Bilbao Vizcaya Argentaria SA and Banco Santander Central Hispano SA.
Westar faces challenges

Chavez also warned the government could take over steel producer Sidor, which is majority controlled by Luxembourg-based Ternium SA. Shares of Ternium fell 3.9 percent to $26.15 in U.S. trading after Chavez's comments.
not to speculate and produce huge profits."

TOPEKA — Westar Energy Inc.'s incoming leader said the utility faces big challenges in coming years as it seeks to expand power generation capacity and develop a more sophisticated system to distribute electricity across the state.
Bill Moore, who replaces retiring Westar CEO Jim Haines Jr, on June
30, said the company can succeed — and has the disastrous 2005 ice storm to thank for it.
The state's largest electric utility took only five days to restore power to almost 211,000 customers whose houses and busi-

"It was a chance to show the state that Westar was back, still
"Right now, we can't be the leading edge on a new round of nuclear plants. We're too small."
nesses went dark in a storm that caused $42 million in damages.
BILL MOORE Westar CEO
Moore said the company needed an opportunity to show its competence and rebuild its reputation after seven years of financial problems and the scandals involving former CEO David Wittig.
"We could have really failed with the ice storm, and the result would have sent this company in the wrong direction," Moore said. "If we're not able to deliver reliable service, (Westar's future) becomes
effective and on its game," said Charlie Chandler, the company's chairman and president of Intrust Bank. "Plus, we were able to develop the confidence in some very talented people in our
organization that we have the capability and capacity to take on all the challenges before us."
That will come in handy as Westar struggles with many of the same questions of future capacity facing other U.S. utilities.
Among the things on Moore's short-term to-do list are building a new coal-fired generator, a 600-megawatt plant near Emporia and new transmission lines linking Wichita, Hutchinson and Salina. The company also must add $750 million in pollution controls at its
existing power plants.
Looking ahead, industry observers said Westar will need to make a decision on meeting future energy needs, a debate complicated by environmentalist opposition to coal-fired or nuclear plants.
"In the not-so-short term, we're going to need to build new base generation," said Kansas Corporation Commission chairman Brian Moline. "In this state, it's either coal or nuclear. Given the public's attitude toward both, that's a very difficult problem for Westar and other electric utilities around to make and then politically sell whatever their choice is."
Moore said Westar will have to wait for nuclear technology to evolve before it can consider expanding its Wolf Creek plant or build a new one.
"Right now, we can't be leading edge on a new round of nuclear plants," he said. "We're too small."
But Moline said he and others on the commission, which regulates Kansas utilities, think Westar is in a better position to find a solution than in the past.
"The state of Westar is very good," Moline said. "When Wittig left, the stock was at an all-time low; its credit rating was abysmal; their reputation with us was terrible."
"Today though, it's a strong company."

Fugitive recruits kill one
Escaped men arrested after trying to hijack plane to U.S.
ANDREA RODRIGEZ
ASSOCIATED PRESS
HAVANA — Fugitive army recruits tried to hijack a plane to the United States and killed a military officer they took hostage in the failed attempt early Thursday, the Interior Ministry said.
"Despite being unarmed, he heroically tried to prevent the commission of the terrorist act," the statement said of the officer killed. Others who had been held hostage on the bus were unharmed, it added.
Two of the escaped recruits were arrested after Army Lt. Col. Victor Ibo Acuna Velazquez was killed in the aborted hijack that began in the pre-dawn hours when they commandeered a bus carrying several passengers to get to a plane on the tarmac, said a ministry statement.
Throughout the day Thursday, there were rampant rumors of a shooting at the airport but the Cuban government and its official media were silent.
There had been a massive manhunt under way for three army recruits sought after fleeing their base. The two arrested were among three army recruits who escaped from their military base on Sunday after killing a fellow soldier and wounding another. The third was
captured earlier, the ministry statement said.
The Defense Ministry over the weekend distributed wanted circulars around Havana, describing the fugitive recruits as armed and dangerous and saying they were sought for abandoning their posts. Some circulars were displayed in public places, including post offices.
Several baggage handlers told an Associated Press reporter who visited the airport that police had told them to tell anyone who asked to say that nothing had happened there that morning. Even so, none of them had appeared to have heard or seen the pre-dawn incident.
"Despite being unarmed, he heroically tried to prevent the commission of the terrorist act."
The men, all from the eastern province of Camaguey, were identified as Leandro Cerezo Sirut and Alain Forbus Lameru, both 19, and Yoan Torres Martinez, 21.

》 SENATE
Amendment nears approval Prescription drug import bid is one step closer to passing
ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — A bid to allow lower-priced drugs to be imported from Canada and elsewhere survived a challenge in the Senate on Thursday, making approval likely early next week despite the Bush administration's opposition.
The Senate, on a 63-28 vote, effectively endorsed the measure as an
amendment to legislation related to the Food and Drug Administration.
The administration opposes allowing imports of prescription drugs and has pledged to recommend the president veto the final FDA legisla-
eral health officials, since the days of the Clinton administration, have said they cannot do.
The amendment that survived the
White House spokesman Tony Fratto said the amendment sponsored by Sen. Thad Cochran, R-Miss., would satisfy the administration's concerns about the safety of imported drugs. "It would diminish, if not eliminate, the need for the president's advisers to recommend a veto," Fratto said.
tion if it includes such a provision.
"The fact is, we are paying the highest price for brand-name prescription drugs in the world and that's not fair."
BYRON DORGAN North Dakota Senator
Republicans, however, decided to make one more try at defeating the measure. They sought to add a requirement that the FDA first certify that imported medicines are safe and effective. That is something that fed-
test vote would permit broader imports of prescription drugs from Canada and elsewhere, where certain medicines can cost less than two-thirds what they do in the United States. Backers hope the imports
will drive down prices at home.
The drug industry also opposes allowing drug imports, arguing it could leave the nation vulnerable to counterfeits a concern echoed by several lawmakers.
"The fact is, we are paying the highest prices for brand-name prescription drugs in the world and that's not fair," said Sen. Byron Dorgan, D-N.D., the amendment's sponsor. "Let's make the global economy work for everybody."
"To accept the importation of foreign drugs is to open the door so that a cottage industry today becomes a major industry tomorrow in supplying counterfeit drugs," said Sen. Richard Burr, R-N.C.
The move enjoys broad popular support, nevertheless. But lower prices overseas would not automatically mean large savings for domestic consumers, according to a 2004 study by the Congressional Budget Office.
The study found that allowing drug imports from a broad set of countries would cut drug spending by $40 billion over 10 years or by about 1 percent.
The amendment is part of a broader Senate bill to renew the fees paid by the pharmaceutical companies seeking approval for new medicines. Lawmakers have seized on the legislation as a chance to overhaul the FDA.
The Senate is not expected to vote on the amendments until Monday at the earliest.

Holmes happy in marriage
ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK—Jada Pinkett Smith says good friend Katie Holmes is an equal partner in her marriage with Tom Cruise.
"People think Tom and the Church of Scientology got something on Kate? They don't," the 35-year-old actress tells People.com in a story posted Thursday. "Kate is running her own show. And she's a great mother. Her kids — Connor, Bella, Suri — are dynamic children and are extremely happy. And her husband is very, very happy."
Pinkett Smith denies reports that Holmes, 28, is a prisoner in her marriage to the 44-year-old actor, who's been depicted by the tabloids as a controlling husband.
"It burns my soul — I see her in the house with Tom; he doesn't have that on her! ... Let me tell you: Kate ain't no little wimpy kitty cat."
The Smiths — close friends of the Cruise-Holmes clan — attended the couple's lavish wedding in Italy last year.
Pinkett Smith says Holmes "did not break a sweat" amid the media frenzy.
Dark-haired, blue-eyed Suri was born last year — again, media frenzy. Cruise has two children, Isabella and Connor, from his previous marriage to Nicole Kidman.

Removing Paris Hilton's organs disappoints as teaching tool Sprawling statue, complete with Tinkerbell, shows the effects of alcohol abuse on America's favorite debutante
Just when you thought celebrity obsessions didn't have any aspect of society left unpenetrated, one more has been chalked up. Now the shallow world of celebrity obsession is permeating school children's education.
Artist Daniel Edwards has created a statue titled "Paris Hilton Autopsy." Paris and her famous dog, Tinkerbell, are sprawled out in somewhat
erotic form and onlookers can remove her organs. The artist and agency say the piece was "designed to warn teenagers of the hazards of underage drinking."
The hazards of under- age drinking are important for teenagers to grasp. No qualms there. However, using a celebrant as a teaching tool may mute the message. What 16-year-old is going to focus
on the cognitive impairment of alcohol when he can remove Paris Hilton's liver and play catch with it?
The concept of making learning more enjoyable and entertaining isn't a bad thing. Showing students simulations of what it looks like to drive drunk, listening to real stories of drinking gone wrong and learning about the health risks of drinking all "entertain" while
teaching. And yes, teaching youths of the responsibilities and dangers of drinking can be improved upon—as the rise in teenage drinking proves.
The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services performed a study that found underage drinkers consume nearly 3.6 billion drinks a year. Clearly, underage drinking is a problem in the United States.
Perhaps educational tools need to be altered to effectively reach today's youth.
However, if educators have to reduce health education to Paris Hilton in order to get through to teenagers, what's next? Analyzing misogynistic or violent rap lyrics in poetry classes?
Updating teaching methods to get through from time-to-time are necessary; adopting
a tabloid culture to teach is just trashy. Paris Hilton naked for art's sake is perfectly fine. Paris Hilton's naked body "teaching" teenagers will only result in confused parents and increased sales of US Weekly Magazine.

I have been lucky enough to have lived in two cities that have smoking bans: Lawrence and Salina. Salina's only applies to restaurants, which was just as well for me, as I couldn't go to bars there. I came to the University of Kansas in 2004, just in time to enjoy the new smoking ban.
Second-hand smoke is bad for everyone, not just those who are allergic to it. A recent study by the Surgeon General concluded that even brief exposure to second-hand smoke can have immediate adverse effects on the cardiovascular system and interfere with the normal functioning of the heart, blood and vascular systems in ways that increase the risk of a heart attack
oping lung cancer by 20 to 30 percent. The report says there is no risk-free level of exposure to second-hand smoke, and that the only way to protect nonsmokers from its dangerous effects is to eliminate smoking indoors.

Now this ban is facing the possibility of being changed or taken away altogether. Dennis Steffe, the owner of Last Call and Coyote's Night Club, filed a case against the city in early 2005 after his businesses received five citations for violating the ban. That case is now being decided by the Kansas Supreme Court.

》THE QUEEN IS IN
British monarch visits Virginia
ASSOCIATED PRESS
RICHMOND, Va. — The last time Queen Elizabeth II helped Virginia mark the anniversary of its Colonial founding, it was an all-white affair in a still-segregated state. Thursday's visit was starkly different.
THE QUEEN ELIZABETH I OF GREAT BRITAIN AND HER ADMINISTRATIVE COORDINATOR, THE GOVERNMENT OF GREAT BRITAIN.
Susan Walsh/ASSOCIATED PRESS
The British monarch, in her first visit to the former Confederate capital, will salute American Indians, a venerated civil rights lawyer and dozens whose lives were scarred by last month's massacre at Virginia Tech.
Gov. Timothy M. Kaine said the message could not be more timely or appropriate.
Queen Elizabeth II and Virginia Gov. Timothy M. Kaine walk around the newly renovated Virginia State Capitol in Richmond, Va., Thursday. The queen's visit is part of Virginia's celebration of the 400th anniversary of Jamestown, America's first permanent English settlement.
"This is a moment that brings Virginia together. That will be very apparent on Capitol Square today, with folks from all over Virginia coming together for this remarkable moment and coming in the aftermath of a hard time," Kaine said Thursday at a news conference.
The plane carrying the 81-year-old queen landed by mid-afternoon, and 20 minutes later she emerged with her husband, Prince Phillip.
Hundreds of people stood in lines for hours in a cool drizzle, some since dawn, to enter the grounds of the freshly refurbished 219-year-old Capitol.
The queen's visit is part of
Virginia's celebration of the 400th anniversary of jamestown, Americas first permanent English settlement.
"How often do you get to see the reigning monarch, much less in your own town?" said Keith Gary, the first spectator through the gates when they opened more than four hours before the queen and Prince Philip's arrival.
The queen's speech to Virginia's General Assembly was to be the first address by Britain's crown to the lawmaking body it chartered in 1619 at Jamestown as the Colonial House of Burgesses.
Inside the Capitol, she was scheduled to meet briefly with construction workers whose $105 million, two-year renovation was completed Monday, with high school student body leaders and with 100-year-old Oliver W. Hill.
Hill, whose birthday was Tuesday, is a civil rights attorney whose litigation helped bring about the 1954 Supreme Court decision outlawing racial segregation in public schools.
When the queen visited Jamestown for its 350th anniversary in 1957, such a meeting was impossible because the state was defying federal desegregation orders.
Before she departs for Williamsburg, the queen will meet privately with some of those wounded in the Virginia Tech shooting
and the families of some of the 32 slain.
"The queen has expressed her desire to have some interaction with
the virginia Tech community so she can extend her support to it, which I really, really appreciate." Kaine said.

Bette Midler replaces Celine Dion in Las Vegas
BY RYAN NAKASHIMA ASSOCIATED PRESS
LAS VEGAS — Bette Midler will replace Celine Dion as the headliner at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas, officials announced Thursday, answering the lingering question of who would be chosen to step into some big shoes and the 4,100-seat Colosseum, which Dion virtually
sold out for what will be a nearly five-year run by December.
Dion's show, "A New Day," has grossed more than $500 million since it began in March 2003, producers said. The Grammy award-winning singer announced in January that she would end her run at the end of the year in the $95 million theater.
Milder said the venue was intimi-dating but exciting.
"I'm looking forward to it, but also I'm terrified because it's huge," she told The Associated Press by telephone. "That's giving me the vapors.
"At the same time, they also give you a lot of toys to play with. They give you the lifts and you can fly people in, you can fly them out. There's all this wing space and hydraulics and stuff, and the dressing rooms are staggering. It should be an opera house somewhere in the Black Forest."
Midler, 61, said she agreed to a two-year contract to work 100 shows a year, performing five nights a week for 20 weeks beginning Feb. 20.
The schedule is less grueling than Dion's, who performed 160 shows per year.
EVENING NEWS
BY DAVID BAUDER ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK — One-third of Americans say they have a negative view of Katie Couric, her personal popularity lagging behind rivals Charles Gibson and Brian Williams just as her evening news program trails in the ratings.
The Gallup Poll survey released Thursday found that 51 percent of Americans said they had a positive view of Couric, who jumped from NBC's "Today" show to CBS last fall.
The poll found Gibson and Williams essentially running neck-
and-neck in terms of popularity, ABC's Gibson was viewed positively by 62 percent of TV viewers and NBC's Williams by 59 percent, but that is within the sampling's margin of error of plus or minus 4 percentage points.
That also mirrors the competition between the anchors in the television ratings. Gibson began the evening job last spring, and trailed Williams consistently for the rest of 2006. But in the past three months ABC's "World News" has logged the most viewers during eight weeks, while NBC's "Nightly News" won four weeks.

After a season full of disappointing losses and exciting victories, the Kansas softball team's regular season comes to a close this weekend. Coach Tracy Bunge attributes the season's peaks and valleys to an inexperienced starting lineup.
Series of ups and downs
Jayhawks' season of disappointments, successes resembles roller coaster ride
BY EVAN KAFARAKIS
Coming off a split series with No. 3 ranked Oklahoma, Kansas' (32-21-1, 7-9) frustrations were compounded Wednesday by a series loss to Wichita State.
But heading to Ames, Iowa, for a weekend series against the Cyclones
(22-39, 1-15), coach Tracy Bunge was ready for the ups and downs her team would face this season.
"I expected a roller coaster type of season due to some inexperience," Bunge said.
Although the team returns six starters from last season's team, three of them are sophomores and three of them are sophomores and
three freshmen fill the remaining starting positions.
"We're hoping to be able to put things together by the end of the year." Bunge said.
The roller coaster season hasn't hit too high or low for this squad, ranked seventh in the Big 12.

Memorial Stadium on the heels of an impressive victory against Texas and were soundly beaten by the Jayhawks. Despite the setback in Lawrence, Kansas State enjoyed a successful 7-6 season with Prince at the helm. With super-prospect quarterback Josh Freeman one year older and reportedly two pounds heavier, Kansas State should have little trouble improving from one year ago. Freeman had a poor showing in the team's spring game, completing fewer than half of his passes and throwing two interceptions. But if his steady growth last season is any indication, Freeman will be just fine. The Wildcats lose five defensive starters but return star defensive end Ian Campbell. Campbell, who had 11.5 sacks last season, will present the first true test for a Kansas offensive line that replaces three starters. Though the Jayhawks are not too far behind the Wildcats in the talent department, the atmosphere in Manhattan should help the home team.
PROJECTION: LOSS - 4-1 (0-1)
BU
OCTOBER 13 — BAYLOR
Make no mistake about it: Baylor football is on the rise. After years and years of futility, the Bears posted
a 3-5 conference mark last year and topped the Jayhawks in a late October matchup. Since the
arrival of coach Guy Morriss in 2002, Baylor has won twice as often as it did in the previous five years. Baylor will be even better in 2007 because of the turnover on its roster. The loss of seven offensive starters might be a godsend for Morriss, who could use some new athletes to plug into his up-temp system. Long-time quarterback Shawn Bell has moved on, leaving sophomore Blake Szymanski and senior Michael Machen to battle for the starting job. The Bears lost both of their cornerbacks to the NFL this offseason but return second-team
au-big 12 linebacker Joe Pawelek. Inexperience at the quarterback position against what looks to be a formidable Kansas secondary will keep Baylor from leaving Lawrence with a victory.
PROJECTION: WIN - 5-1 (1-1)
OCTOBER 20 — AT COLORADO
The Colorado Buffaloes endured some serious growing pains in their first season under coach Dan Hawkins. First, there was a forgettable 2-10 season that included a loss to Division 1-AA Montana State. Next, there was Hawkins' unforgettable offseason tirade accusing his players of lacking the toughness to compete in the Big 12 Conference. The big story in Boulder heading into the 2007 season is the battle for playing time at quarterback. Top candidates for the job include junior college transfer Nick Nelson

who comes out on top, chances are they will improve upon last season's 116th-ranked pass offense. Colorado's one bright spot is at running back, where the elusive Hugh Charles is one of the conference's best. Kansas barely defeated Colorado last season in a home game, so it is hard to imagine the Jayhawks defeating a much-improved Colorado team.
PROJECTION LOGS - 5-2 (1-2)
OCTOBER 27 — AT TEXAS A&M

And, after watching the heavyweights fight, I enjoyed watching Roy Jones, Jr. and De La Hoya in the lower classes.
I would say that the Tyson vs. Lewis heavyweight fight five years ago was the last big pay-per-view fight and let's be honest, that fight got 2.03 million pay-per view orders because people wanted to see Tyson do something crazy — which he didn't.
So, here we are in 2007,and
Saturday is the fight that will save boxing — at least that's what Richard Schaefer, CEO of De La Hoya Golden Boy Promotions, wants to happen.
From the way things look, it just might and I hope it does. Tickets sold out in three hours generating a Nevada record at $19 million. The second Lewis vs. Holyfield heavyweight title fight in 1999 brought in $16.8 million, the previous record.
Not just ticket sales, the promotion for this fight is like none I have ever seen either. The "De La Hoya/Mayweather 24/7" four-part series on HBO, which concluded last night, got most college-aged guys' attention. It aired right after "Entourage" and "The Sopranos."
And because of that, it has been reported that the first-show ratings averaged 1.2 million viewers. De La Hoya is a good, not great, fighter, but he is definitely marketable. Mayweather, meanwhile, is just entertaining to watch.
As for the fight. Mayweather is favored for a reason — maybe because he has yet to lose (37- 0, 30 KO). Yes, De La Hoya has more experience and a size advantage (De La Hoya is $^{5'11''}$ compared to Mayweather's $^{5'8''}$). But, Mayweather, 30, is younger than De La Hoya, 34, and has more speed. Mayweather is an aggressive fighter and I think he will be too much for De La Hoya to handle.
So, bottom line, this fight is worth splitting the $54.95 pay per view bill with some friends. And, don't worry; I'm sure there will still be plenty of tequila to drink at the bars after the fight on Cinco de Mayo.

Majerus snags first recruit at St. Louis coaching job
ST. LOUISE — Just days into the job and new Saint Louis University coach Rick Majerus has his first recruit.
The Billikens announced late Wednesday the signing of 6-foot-7 power forward Barry Eberhardt, who was a thirdteam junior college All-American last season at Coffeyville College in Kansas. He averaged 17.4 points and 6.2 rebounds per game while shooting 56 percent from the field.

"Barry gives us a low post
Eberhardt joins Anthony Mitchell of East St. Louis (III.) High School and Chicago's Markus Reiphorde, who signed earlier in the signing period.
Majerus was introduced Monday.

Nowitski steps up late
BY JIM LITKE ASSOCIATED PRESS
》 NBA PLAYOFFS
Superstars come in all shapes and sizes.
Not so their egos, which are supposed to start at XXL and only get bigger from there.
Maybe that's why Dirk Nowitzki's "I'll-try-to-do-better" plea, made on the eve of Dallas' elimination game Tuesday night against Golden State in the first round of the NBA playoffs, rubbed so many people the wrong way.
First, his coach lit into him.
they've taken him out of his game and any lack of confidence," Avery Johnson said. "You're just not supposed to have that."
N e x t ,
Nowitzki's team-
mates called
a players-only
meeting, "just to
since Game 2 of the NBA finals a year ago; step up.
What followed were a dozen points in a 15-0 run the Mavericks strung together to close out the game, including two clutch threepointers, a perfectly timed block on Matt Barnes' layup attempt and a half-dozen free throws. That moved the series to Game 6 in Oakland.
"We got on Dirk's back and he carried us," teammate Devean George said afterward. "That's who he is for us."
Nowitzki can be a game-changer,
to be sure, and anybody who watched
Not exactly.
"I'm tired of hearing about how they've taken him out of his game and any lack of confidence.
AVERY JOHNSON Dallas coach
make sure," Jason Terry explained, "that everybody was on the same page."
Then, the Warriors clawed their way back from a 21-point deficit to take a 112-103 lead with just over three minutes left and dared Nowitzki to do something he hadn't done in 19 quarters of playoff basketball this season — really, ever
him carry most of the offensive load for the Mavericks throughout their 67-win regular season wouldn't quibble with him collecting the MVP next week. But those comparisons the past few days to basketball's holy
trinity — as in, "Michael, Larry and Magic never would have backed down, no matter how many double-teams opponents threw their way" — were overblown.
For one thing, Nowitzki just isn't that good. He's basically a first-rate shooter who rebounds adequately and doesn't play defense that well. Nowitzki needs his teammates at
least as much as they need him, which is what he was trying to explain when he said the Warriors' constant double-teaming was forcing him to find other ways to contribute "help out on defense more; hit the glass harder, as hard as I can, get some extra possessions; if I have a shot, try to knock it down and if I don't, move the ball and let someone else make a shot."
It didn't help that Nowitzki's former coach, Don Nelson, working the other sideline and still nursing a grudge against Mavericks owner Mark Cuban knew all of Nowitzki's weaknesses. Or that his Warriors' team, small and fast but rugged, presented matchup problems for Dallas at just about every spot on the floor.
That's why Golden State won six of its last seven regular-season games against the Mavericks, who averaged four points less and allowed 14 more than they did against the rest of the league. Nelson knew that forcing anyone other than Nowitzki to beat him was Golden State's best chance to pull off a historic upset. After the Mavericks dropped three of the first four in the best-of-seven series, Nowitzki knew it, too.
At the end, Nowitzki took advantage of all the free advice and asserted himself on the offensive end.
"He was more aggressive," Golden State's Baron Davis said. "I thought he was trying to take the ball to the basket and post up. Our guys did a great job defending him. But he was able to get to the line."

TRIPLE CROWN
Curlin will fight history to win Kentucky Derby
LOUISVILLE, Ky. — Curlin will have to overcome 19 rivals and a lot of history if he is to win the Kentucky Derby.
The unbeaten colt was installed as the slight 7-2 favorite after drawing the No. 2 post position. Affirmed was the last Derby winner to win from that post, and he went on to sweep the Triple Crown in 1978.
Winner of the Arkansas Derby for his third straight victory, Curlin will be ridden by Robby Albarado in a full field of 20 3-year-olds going 1 1/4 miles
Saturday.
Curlin has two big things going against him; he didn't race as a 2-year-old and has run only three races in his career. It's been 125 years since Apollo won after skipping his 2-year-old season, and not since the filly Regret in 1915 has such a lightly seasoned horse worn the blanket of red roses.
Tampa Bay Derby winner Street Sense was made the second choice at 4-1. Street Sense, last year's 2-year-old male horse of the year, will try to end the Juvenile jinx: no Breeders' Cup Juvenile winner has ever gone on to win the Derby, an 0-for-23 drought.

Bonds gains another one
HOME RUNS
GIANTS
ASSOCIATED PRESS
San Francisco Giants' Barry Bonds, right, swings on his two-run home run to score Rich Aurilia off of Colorado Rockies' Jeff Francis in the fourth inning of a baseball game in San Francisco on Wednesday. It was Wonds' career home run number 743. At least is Rockies' Chris Jannetta.
Barry Bonds worked on the home run record early and then helped the Giants rally with a late hit that staved in the park.
Jeff Chiu/ASSOCIATED PRESS
Bonds hit career homer No. 743 in the fourth inning, then delivered a go-ahead two-run single in the eighth inning to lead San Francisco to a 5-3 victory at home over the Colorado Rockies.
Rockies reliever Manny Corpas had no choice but to pitch to Bonds with the bases loaded in the eighth. The pitcher replaced Jeff Francis (1-4) with runners on first and second after singles by Ryan Klesko and Randy Winn, then walked Rich Aurilia to bring up Bonds.
"Oh, man, that's a situation you hope for," Klesko said of seeing Bonds in the batter's box with the bases loaded. "You've got to pitch to him with the bases loaded _ though I've seen them walk him with the bases loaded."
Bonds left for a pinch runner after the hit and got a standing ovation.
He moved within 12 homers of Hank Aaron's career record of 755, hitting a two-run shot to right field in the fourth inning. With four RBIs on the night, he has 1,951 for his career, tying him with Stan Musial for fourth place on the all-time list.
Bonds connected for his ninth homer of the year on the first pitch from Francis and made the score 2-0.
It was Bonds' second career homer off Francis. The seven-time NL MVP waved his cap to the crowd when he came out to play left field in the top of the fifth. He flied out to right in the first and again in the sixth.
and that's always big when you can get a walk like that."
"Obviously it puts them in a tough spot to have to face Bonds with the bases loaded," Giants manager Bruce Bochy said. "Barry had quite a night
Bonds had been intentionally walked seven times in his previous six games, including three times Friday at Arizona and twice in Monday's series opener with the Rockies.
Francis, one of 438 different pitchers to surrender a homer to Bonds, pitched effectively for 7 1-3 innings, but saw his losing streak go
to four starts.
"That pitch he hit off of Francis, there's not many guys in the game who are going to turn on that ball and keep it fair," Rockies manager Clint Hurdle said. "If (his single) is pulled 4 more feet, we've got a chance at a double play."
Brad Hennessey (1-1) pitched 1 1-3 innings for the win on a night closer Armando Benitez was unavailable because of a sore right knee.
GOLF
BY DOUG FERGUSON ASSOCIATED PRESS
Woods, MJ share spotlight
And for once, Woods felt part of the crowd.
CHARLOTTE, N.C. — The gallery stood a dozen rows deep and spilled down both sides of the fairway, the kind of scene Tiger Woods is used to see on the weekend at a major championship. This was only a pro-am round Wednesday at the Wachovia Championship.
This is what happens when two of the most celebrated icons in sports
are together on the golf course in a public event for the first time.
Woods, owner of 12 majors,
gladly shared the stage at Quail Hollow with Michael Jordan,
owner of six NBA titles and five MVPs.
Jordan is part-owner of the Charlotte Bobcats, and although he doesn't spend much time in town, he wanted to play in the pro-am.
Woods first played golf with Jordan in 1997 in Chicago. While they often get together on the golf course, his camp asked tournament officials if they could be paired on Wednesday.
"We know a few people," Woods said with a laugh. "No, the tournament was nice enough to put us together. He's been like my big brother, so it's been great to him be
"He's been like my big brother, so it's been great to have him be part of my life. We had a great time today."
TIGER WOODS Professional golfer
"This is great,"
part of my life.
We had a great time today. We always have a great time."
This is green.
Woods said as he waited on the 10th tee. "No one knows I'm here."
For a pro-am round, it did not lack for entertainment.
That much was clear when he walked out of the clubhouse toward the practice range and some three dozen people didn't even realize he was there because their eyes trained on Jordan pulling his car up to the valet.
rounds, and they brought the banter to Quail Hollow.
With a cigar in his mouth, Jordan made an 8-foot par put on the seventh hole, then mimicked Woods as he walked off the green, delivering a fist-pump in slow motion and holding his pose until he was sure Woods was looking.
The showmanship picked up on the back nine.
Woods was waiting for the 11th fairway to clear when Jordan walked by and kicked his ball off the tee toward a young boy in the gallery. "You can have it," Jordan told the boy.
Woods re-teed, and at the top of his back swing. Jordan cleared his throat loud enough to make Woods stop.
The world's No.1 player set up over the ball again and hit a hard draw down the middle of the fairway, locking eyes with Jordan in a mock staredown. Jordan then ripped his driver down the fairway, and as he stooped to pick up his tee, looked back at Woods and returned the stare.
The chatter was endless, and as always, Jordan was doing most of the talking. He was asked after the round how many majors Woods might have won if he had to be paired with Jordan during the final round.
"Not as many," Jordan said. "I can get in his head."
"He wins all the time," Woods said of the trash-talking battle. "I'll just throw out a jab every now and then, but basically this is my home court, so it's a little easier for me. On his court, it would be a little different deal."

KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Gil Meche allowed two hits in seven innings, retiring 17 straight batters and led the Kansas City Royals to defeat the Los Angeles Angels 5-2, Thursday.
Mchee (3-1), whose 2.23 ERA is third in the AL behind Oakland's Dan Haren (1.60) and the Angels' John Lackey (2.19), struck out six and walked one. Meche walked Reggie Willits in a 10-pitch at-bat right ahead of Guerrero's ninth home run.
Only two Angels hit the ball out of the infield during his stretch of 17 straight batters retired, a streak that ended in the seventh when Guerrero reached on a one-out infield single that went off second

Cardinals pitcher publicly mourned
Ieammates mostly silent during uplifting hour-long service, only one spoke
BY R.B. FALLSTROM ASSOCIATED PRESS
TUPELO, Miss. — The St. Louis Cardinals were among an estimated 500 mourners Thursday at a public memorial service for pitcher Josh
Hancock, who died in an automobile accident early Sunday.
Hancock's younger sister, Katie, a star athlete at Tupelo High School, called him a "great guy, a great man and a great big brother." Hancock's
only teammate who spoke at the service, recalling Hancock the prankster and also remembering how the two played catch every day. "Every day, I was reminded of his heart," Flores said.

"What do you want me to say?" general manager Walt Jocketty said before boarding the bus.
NCAA BASKETBALL SLU coach signs new recruit days after being introduced
ST. LOUIS Just days into the job and new Saint Louis University coach Rick Majerus has his first recruit.
The Billikens announced late Wednesday the signing of 6-foot-7 power forward Barry Eberhardt, who was a third-team junior college All-American last season at Coffeyville in Kansas. He averaged 17.4 points and 6.2 rebounds per game while shooting 56 percent from the field.
"Barry gives us a low post scoring presence with the ability to pick and pop," Majerus said. "We are excited about his developing rebounding game in conjunction with a defensive commitment."
Eberhardt joins Anthony Mitchell of East St. Louis (III.) High School and Chicago's Markus Relphorde, who signed earlier in the signing period.
Majerus was introduced Monday, replacing Brad Soderberg, who was fired last month.

Hancock's father, Dean Hancock, wore a red ribbon with the No. 32 — his son's uniform number — on his left lapel as he read a statement before the service. He took no questions, thanking the media for "respecting our privacy and for respecting Josh's honor."
"Professional baseball players are brothers within a family, and the St.
Louis Cardinals players and coaches are bonded together, in my opinion, like no other family in baseball." Hancock said. "Josh was so proud to be a member of that family."
Hancock was driving a rented Ford Explorer early Sunday when it slammed into a flatbed tow truck on Interstate 64 in St. Louis.

KENTUCKY DERBY
Unbridled performance
Today's races can't compare with wild finish of the past
BY BETH HARRIS ASSOCIATED PRESS
LOUISVILLE. Ky. — The Kentucky Derby begins with 20 horses stampeding three-eighths of a mile before squeezing through the first turn. No matter how crazy Saturday's race starts, there's little chance the finish will be as wild as it was 50 years ago.
"I don't think there was ever that good a race," 94-year-old trainer John Nerud recalled in Thursday. "I've never seen that in my lifetime."
The 1957 Kentucky Derby is
remembered as horse racing's version of baseball's "Shot Heart" "Round the World," the dramatics triggered by the late Bill Shoemaker, considered the sport's greatest jockey. He was aboard Gallant
"When your horse finishes 12th, you hardly notice where the wire is."
Man and gaining on rival Bill Hartack and Iron Liege as the two horses duelled down the stretch.
Upstairs in a clubhouse box, Nerud slapped owner Ralph Lowe on the back and said, "Go down to the winner's circle and get your roses and take them back to Texas."
Then, something incredible happened.
As the horses passed the sixteenth pole, Shoemaker inexplicably stood up in the irons on Gallant Man, misjudging the finish line. It happened so quickly, hardly anyone noticed at first. In a flash, Shoemaker bounced back into the saddle and began riding hard again.
But Gallant Man couldn't overhaul Hartack and Iron Liege, who won by a nose.
est riders ever,” Nerud said from his home in Long Island, N.Y. “I didn’t know what happened at the time until it was over.”
"I never figured out why he pulled up. He was one of the great-
Come Saturday, he'll be watching the 133rd Derby and cheering on Street Sense, trained by 65-year-old Carl Nafzger.
BILL SHOEMAKER Former jockey
"Carl is one of my protgs," Nerud said. "Every one of them is my friend, but Carl, I kind of put him on the right track. I gave him some horses that could run about 25 years ago."
Nafziger won the 1990 Derby with Unbridled and credits Nerud
for much of his success. Besides sending him good horses, Nafzger said Nerud gave him the confidence to stick to his own training theories and helped even more by keeping demanding owners off his back.
"He taught me so much," Nafzger said. "You can never fail, you can only learn. That's the way I live."
Street Sense is the early 4-1 second choice in a full field of 3-year-olds entered for Saturday's race. Curlin, the 7-2 favorite, is unbeaten in three starts, but with a 50 percent chance of thunderstorms forecast, things could get interesting. Street Sense finished third in his only race on a sloppy track; Curlin has never raced in mud.
The Churchill Downs track was rated "fast" on May 4, 1957. The night before, Lowe told Shoemaker that he dreamed a jockey on one of his horses misjudged the finish line and lost the race.
"Not me," Shoemaker replied.
But the very next day, race day,
he did just that.
"I knew," Shoemaker would write in his 1988 biography, "I had made a big boo-boo."
The blunder earned him a 15-day suspension, not just because Shoemaker pulled up the horse but, according to Nerud, because he lied about it afterward. Shoemaker originally claimed the horse took a bad step, but relented after being confronted by the stewards. The strange thing is he wasn't even supposed to be aboard Gallant Man in the Derby.
Nerud insisted that John Choquette should ride the horse, at one point telling Lowe, "You want another jockey, you can get another trainer, too."
In that year's pre-Derby Wood Memorial race, Chooste rode Gallant Man and lost by a nose to Bold Ruler and Eddie Arcaro. Shoemaker was in that race, too, but his horse hit the gate and was injured, leaving him without a Derby mount.
But after the Wood, Choquette was suspended for rough riding and in those days there were no appeals. So Nerud called Shoemaker and asked him to ride Gallant Man in the Derby. The jockey arrived at Churchill Downs wanting to get a feel for the track, but his agent couldn't book him a ride on the Derby Day undercard.
"The finish line at Churchill Downs was a sixteenth of a mile farther toward the first turn than it was at other tracks in the country," Shoemaker wrote. "And I hadn't had a ride over a track like that in a year. The year before, my Derby horse had been Terrang and he finished 12th.
"When your horse finishes 12th," he continued, "you hardly notice where the wire is."
Shoemaker, who won in 1955 with Swaps, went on to three more Derby victories in his career.

Nuggets hopeful for 2008
DENVER — Allen Iverson wasn't "The Answer" in the short-term.
BY ARNIE STAPLETON ASSOCIATED PRESS
His presence couldn't prevent the Denver Nuggets from getting bounced in the first round of the playoffs for the fourth straight season.
Still, they weren't sullen or sour this time around.
They sauntered into the offseason defiantly confident that the addition of A.I. will soon produce a postseason party that will last a lot longer than five games.
"I think we definitely have a great team," forward Eduardo Najera said Thursday. "We have great players. As long as we stay together, were very close of getting past that first round nightmare ... But we got to stay together and we definitely got to have a better year during the regular season — with no brawls, with no trades, hopefully. I can almost guarantee that we will be so much better next year."
The Spurs think so, too.
"Next year, they're probably going
To do that, the Nuggets will need to add an outside shooter to open up the lanes for Carmelo Anthony and Iverson, who was smothered by the Spurs and averaged a career-worst 22.8 points in the postseason.
to be a 1-, 2- or 3-seed," Robert Horry said.
This year's Nuggets were a work in progress because of injuries, trades and suspensions.
"I'm excited about how good we can be," Iverson said. "I think we have a lot of talent. Our biggest thing is to have a training camp (together)."
Iverson made just 31 of 92 shots after he scored 31 points in Denver's Game 1 win in San Antonio.
Anthony and J.R. Smith were banished for fighting and Iverson came over from Philadelphia in December for two first-round draft picks, Joe Smith and Andre Miller. Then, the Nuggets sent Earl Boykins and Julius Hodge to Milwaukee for Steve Blake.
It took a while for them to mesh and they entered April at 35-36 before going 10-1 to secure the sixth seed in the West.
"It's been a roller-coaster season for us," said defensive player of the year Marcus Camby. "The fight in
New York, the trades that we had. You know, me personally, I wanted to see the A.I. and 'Melo combination work. But hopefully next year with training camp under our belts we'll get that continuity that we started to develop the last two months of the season carry over. That way we can get a better record. So we can get home-court advantage. I'm looking forward to next season."
"I felt like this was the worst playoff series that I've played in my career," Iverson said. "It was kind of frustrating, coming into a new situation, wanting to be the one that gets this team over the hump, get them out of the first round. And to play like I'm not capable of playing is just frustrating."
The bench provided almost no boost as Smith got into coach George Karl's doghouse for a series of mental mistakes and Linas Kleiza shrank in the glare of the playoffs. Still, they were competitive, unlike two years ago, when they lost to the Spurs in the first round.

NCAA
BCS teams to face stricter policy
BY MICHAEL MAROT ASSOCIATED PRESS
INDIANAPOLIS — Big-money athletic programs avoided most of the NCAA's penalties. Next year, they might not be so lucky.
The latest Academic Progress Report released by the NCAA on Wednesday showed only 11 BCS teams were punished for poor classroom performance, while historically black colleges and universities accounted for 13 percent of all sanctioned schools. Of the 49 warning letters sent out, 13 went to Louisiana teams.
That discrepancy could change next year when the NCAA plans to drop a mathematical calculation
"Many more teams could be subject to these penalties next year," he said. "We've written letters to coaches and others saying we are concerned about this issue and we want to help put together plans that will help them improve."
that helped some BCS teams avoid punishment this year, and NCAA president Myles Brand is already sounding the warnings.
That's little consolation to the schools already facing penalties. This is the first time the NCAA has sent out warning letters based on academic performance.
The NCAA compiles an APR, which measures eligibility and retention of student athletes, for every program at every Division I school.
Teams scoring less than 925 — the equivalent of a 60 percent graduation rate under the NCAA's formula — received warning letters and could face harsher sanctions over the next three years. A second offense during that time would result in a reduction of practice time or games played. A third offense would result in disqualification from NCAA tournaments.
Louisiana-based Nicholls State received the second-most warning letters in four sports: baseball, men's cross country and women's indoor and outdoor track. Texas Southern in Houston received five.
BCS teams, in contrast, received no warning letters.

Study suggests racial officiating Does race play a part in referees' calls?
NANCY ARMOUR ASSOCIATED PRESS
If referees are whistling Kobe Bryant for more fouls because of the color of his skin, he's never noticed it.
"I think I've gotten more techs from black refs than white refs," the Los Angeles Lakers star jokingly said Wednesday. "That's reverse racism probably."
According to an upcoming paper by a University of Pennsylvania
professor and a Cornell graduate student, white referees called fouls against black players at a higher rate than they did against white players.
Their study also found that black officials called fools on
white players more frequently than they did against blacks, but the disparity wasn't as great.
But Bryant, LeBron James and four other NBA players dismissed an academic study that found evidence of racial bias in referees' calls, saying they've never experienced it. The NBA also refuted the study, saying its own analysis showed no racial bias in officiating.
"This is not a view that one set of people hates another set of people. This is implicit unconscious biases."
"We obviously discuss officiating and our feelings toward it," said Utah Jazz guard Derek Fisher, president of the NBA players' association. "But I don't ever recall it being a racially motivated type of conversation where we felt like there were certain guys that had it out for me or him or whoever just because of the color of our skin.
"I don't know that I've ever really felt that there was a racial component to officiating."
James put it this way: "It's stupid."
Chicago Bulls veteran forward
P. J. Brown said: "Somebody's got too much time on their hands."
That misses the point, said Justin Wolfers, an assistant professor of business and public policy at the Wharton School and co-author of the study.
JUSTIN WOLFERS Assistant professor
"This is not a view that one set of people hates another set of people. This is implicit, unconscious biases," said Wolfers, who conducted the study with Joseph Price, a graduate student in economics at Cornell.
"You see two players (collide)
on the floor and you have to call a block or a charge. Does the skin color of the players somehow shape how you interpret the signals your brain gives you?"
Analyzing NBA boxscores from a 13-season span running through 2004, the study found that black players received fewer fouls per 48 minutes than white players, 4.33 to 4.97. But it also found that fouls on black players could increase as much as 4 1/2 percent in that time period "when the number of white referees on a crew went from zero to three."
Though the NBA is made up of predominantly black players, less than 40 percent of its officials are black and they are randomly assigned to games in three-person crews.
"I don't really think it's relevant as far as our game," Cavaliers guard Larry Hughes said. We have the same discussions with white refs as we do with black refs. It's no different. I definitely wouldn't say that a white ref has it out for the black guys in the league. It's not possible in our game as fast as we move."
Wolfers and Price analyzed officiating crews, based on boxscores, not individual referees.

Non-golf athletes play at Wachiovia tourney
CHARLOTTE, N.C. — There was no shortage of stars at the Wachovia Championship.
And that was for the pro-am round.
Thousands of fans lined the first fairway Wednesday morning to watch two of the world's most celebrated sports icons — Tiger Woods and Michael Jordan — play together in a public event for the first time. Two groups behind with Sergio Garcia, and virtually unnoticed on this day, was Peyton Manning, the guy selected as the Super Bowl MVP.
The real tournament starts Thursday at Quail Hollow, and attention will shift to another cast of stars — one of the strongest fields of the year at a PGA Tour event that already has become one of the best.
Woods, defending champion Jim Furky and Phil Mickelson are among the top 30 players in the world ranking. Not bad for a tournament that is only four years
"When you have a great golf course, the guys will come," Woods said. "This is one of the neat golf courses we get to play all year. It's straightforward, right in front of
"When we show up at the hotel, our kids have their names embroidered on the hotel pillows and towels, and they call our assistants and get all kinds of toys that they like waiting for them in the hotel room," Mickelson said.
The 18th is 478 yards with a bunker and trees to the right, and a small stream that winds down the left side all the way to the green.
The rest of the amenities aren't bad.
But it all starts with Quail Hollow, a tree-lined course that features one of the toughest finishing stretch on tour.
their caddies get valet parking. Wives are offered a short flight to Asheville to see the Biltmore Estate. Mickelson even found another perk that not many others have talked about — personalized pillow cases and towels.

"When you have a great golf course, the guys will come. This is one of the neat golf courses we get to play all year."
you. You have to shape the ball both ways, and on top of that, you've really got to put it here."
"It's really kind of a par-3 1/2 hole," Mickelson said of the 17th. "If you make par, it's close to a birdie."
The purse is $6.3 million, among the richest for regular PGA Tour events. Players are given a Mercedes-Benz for a courtesy car, and even
Furyk won last year with an 8-foot par putt on the 18th to get into a playoff, and a 6-foot par on the first extra hole to beat Trevor Immelman.

He was in a four-hole playoff the year
before, won by Vijay Singh. Joey Sindelar won in 2004 after a clutch birdie on the 17th and winning in — you guessed it — a playoff.
The only time the Wachovia didn't require overtime was the first year, when David Toms took a six-shot lead to the final hole and made a quadruple-bogey 8 to win by two.

High profile fight brings big cash
LAS VEGAS — At the sports book inside the massive MGM Grand hotel-casino, the squares were trickling in to bet the big fight. As squares usually do, they were going for the dog, who on this day wore a big smile underneath his ball cap.
Oscar De La Hoya hasn't been in this position much, but it doesn't seem to bother him. Maybe that's because he's going to make $30 million or so no matter what the odds are when he steps into the ring against Floyd Mayweather Jr. in a megafight that harkens back to boxing's glory days.
Or maybe he just believes in himself more than he believes the wise guys who set the odds.
The wise guys who bet the big money will mostly be putting it on the favorite in this fight. But casual fans, or squares to the bookies who take their money, are believers when their fighter talks about himself.
"Don't be surprised if I'm faster than Mayweather," De La Hoya warned. "I don't see this fight going the distance."

WHAT'S AT STAKE
The postseason and whether or not Kansas will take part in it is at stake every single day. The Jayhawks' performance in Norman, Okla., last weekend will help their chances of landing in the top eight and making the conference tournament, but it will take more than that. Kansas State holds a half-game lead over Kansas in the standings, which leaves plenty of room for the Jayhawks to switch them places should they pick up the sweep. Right now, nothing is more important to the Jayhawks than making the tournament in which they are the defending champs.
STAR WATCH
Kyle Murphy, senior center fielder, proved his worth again in

Murphy
his team's last time out. His two-run bomb in the top of the eighth inning last Sunday put the Jayhawks out of the Sooners' reach. Murphy had at
least a hit in each contest of the series and drove in four runs. He alone accounts for one-third of Kansas' stolen bases.
QUESTION MARK
On the offensive front, Ryne Price, junior second baseman, continues to be helpful. Price went just 1-for-6 last weekend, but he also scored three times and accumulated six walks. However, last Saturday, Price committed a pair of errors, bringing his total on the season to 19. That is more than double any other Jayhawks' error count. His bat is there, but his glove could be a possible liability.

KANSAS VS.KANSAS STATE 6:30 Tonight, Tointon Stadium, Manhattan
Kansas 22-26,8-13 Big 12
OFFENSE
After an 8-10 loss to open the series against Oklahoma April 27, Kansas kicked its offense into gear in time to take home the series victory. Despite being out hit in each game of the series, the Jayhawks found ways to score while holding the Sooners on base. To make up for the lower hit tally in the contests, Kansas instead used well-timed extra base hits to do the damage needed. Last weekend, the Jayhawks hit six doubles, a triple and three homeruns. Though the hometown boys' offense is still ranked last in the Big 12 with a .275
team batting average, they do rank
fifth in the conference in home runs (39) and third in doubles (100). As senior center fieldier Kyle Murphy continues to be hot at the plate, his work and success as the leadoff hitter will likely induce some small ball to manufacture runs as well.
PITCHING
The Jayhawk pitching staff continues to steadily improve, lowering its team ERA from 4.71 to 4.65 in a week. Besides last Friday, Kansas has not been blown out since March 14 against Wichita State. Before the Oklahoma series, Price mentioned that the offense was the strength of the first four weeks of conference play, but now his pitchers are shouldering a bigger chunk of the workload. As a staff, Kansas pitching now ranks No.1 in the Big 12 in strikeouts (367) despite sitting ninth overall. Sophomore lefty Andy Marks' (3-6) 74 strikeouts in 67 1/3 innings of work ranks fourth amongst Big 12 pitchers. Though he took the loss last Friday, Marks surrendered just three runs into the sixth inning. Fellow sophomore southpaw, Nick Czyz (3-6) picked up his first Big 12 victory of the year following a solid six-inning outing while freshman Wally Marceli (4-2) is settling nicely into his new role as the Sunday starter.

MOMENTUM
Kansas finally has conference momentum heading into tonight's series opener. The series victory at Oklahoma boosted Kansas out of the last place spot in the Big 12. The ninth place ranking they now hold may not look any more glamorous, but their eight conference victories is one more than the Jayhawks' neighbors to the west have. This means that Kansas stands a chance of making a substantial jump in the standings, putting themselves in a sure spot of making the Big 12 tournament and then some.
KU KU KU
OFFENSE
To say the Wildcats have scoring down to a science wouldn't be entirely accurate. Until scoring 30 runs in two games against Chicago State this week, Kansas State was averaging only 5.89 runs per game, just ahead of Nebraska's 5.88 average. Out of 18 conference games, the Wildcats have scored in double-digits only three times and are averaging 5.78 runs per game. On the flip side, they've only been shut out once all season. Kansas State is fifth in the Big 12 in batting average, hitting .295, but has had to play small ball with only 19 home runs. The Wildcats have used a hodgepodge of lineups with 3 players who have started at least 17 games. However, center fielder Byron Wiley has been a one-man wrecking crew with a team-best .377 average in 42 starts. He also leads Kansas State in hits, runs, home runs, RBI, total bases, slugging, on-base percentage and stolen bases.

C
PITCHING
In addition to its lack of offensive power, Kansas State lacks a power pitching staff, averaging only 6.9 strikeouts per nine innings. The Wildcats are tied for seventh in the Big 12 with a 4.39 ERA, but it's hard to keep runs off the board while leading the conference in walks, averaging 4.13 walks per nine innings. Right-hander Brad Hutt has been a solid starter for Kansas State with a 7-3 record and a 3.23 ERA. However, left-hander Chase Bayuk (4-4) has been erratic with a 4.40 ERA and 41 strikeouts to 38 walks. Right-hander Trevor Hurley (1-2) is Kansas State's third starter, but he only has two starts on the season after left-hander Ben Hornbeck lost his spot in the weekend rotation. If Kansas State can get to its bullpen with a lead, though, it's been efficient at staying ahead. The Wildcats are tied for the conference lead with 14 saves, of which closer Daniel Edwards has 10.
MOMENTUM
Kansas State might be hitting its stride on offense after a pair of midweek victories against Chicago State this week The Wildcats outscored the Cougars 30-4 in the two games, run-ruling their non-conference opponent in seven innings both games. However, the Wildcats have hit a cold spell during conference
play. Since winning its series with Big 12 cell-dweller Texas Tech five weekends ago Kansas State is 4.8
12 cellar-dweller Texas Tech five weekends ago, Kansas State is 4-8 against conference opponents. The Wildcats could benefit from the first game being held in Manhattan. If they can take game one, all they have to do is split the last two games in Lawrence to win the series. Kansas State is in dire need of gaining some momentum as it battles Kansas, Baylor and Texas Tech for the final two spots in the Big 12 Tournament.

WHAT'S AT STAKE
This series is a must-win if the Wildcats hope to reach the Big 12 Tournament. After Kansas, only No. 13 Texas A&M and Baylor remain on Kansas State's conference schedule. The Wildcats are battling the Jayhawks and Bears for the last two spots in the tournament and have a leg up, sitting in seventh place, just thousandths of percentage points ahead of them. A series victory this weekend would give Kansas State the inside track to making the tournament.
STAR WATCH
Kansas State's offense revolves around sophomore outfielder Byron Wiley. He leads the
Wildcats in 11 offensive categories and by a wide margin in most of them. In 151 at-bats this season, he has a .377 batting average, 36
HCS
Wiley
runs, 57 hits, five home runs, 33 RBI, 80 total bases, 32 walks, a .530 slugging percentage, a .500 on-base percentage and 12 stolen bases. As Kansas State's everyday center fielder, Wiley has only two errors on the season.
QUESTION MARK
What kind of start will Kansas State get out of Trevor Hurley?
The sophomore right-hander (1-2) only has two starts this season, but put up solid numbers out of the bullpen. Hurley has a 3.40 ERA in 34 innings this season with 27 strikeouts to 10 walks. However, those numbers didn't translate in his last start. Against Nebraska last weekend, he surrendered three runs in 4.2 innings, striking out one and walking three.
5 QUICK FACTS
.973 — The Wildcats fielding percentage this season, which is third best in the Big 12.
4 — The number of wins Kansas State has against ranked opponents in 13 tries this season
19 The number of home runs Kansas State has hit this season, which is worst in the conference.
28 — The highest ranking the Wildcats have earned this season, jumping into the NCBWA Poll in the third week of March, only to lose their first two games of that week and fall back out of the poll.
2002 — The last season Kansas State qualified for the Big 12 Tournament.

NATURAL DISASTER
THE TORNEY BASE
Orlin Wagner/ASSOCIATED PRESS
Widespread destruction is shown Saturday in Greensburg. Most of this southwest Kansas town was destroyed by a tornado, which was part of a violent storm system blamed for at least nine deaths, officials said Saturday amid warnings of more severe weather. The tornado that struck Greensburg late Friday damaged about 95 percent of the town about 110 miles west of Wichita and 50 miles north of the Oklahoma state line, City Administrator Steve Hawthorn said Saturday.
Tornado levels Kansas town
Three KU students lose homes say town is'unrecognizable'
BY BETHANY BUNCH
Every church was destroyed, the hospital roof collapsed and every business on the town's main thoroughfare was demolished in Friday night's tornado that nearly wiped the small town of Greensburg off the map.
Stephanie White, Greensburg senior, and her brother Zach, a freshman, were in Lawrence when they first heard that severe weather was headed for their hometown. Panic quickly followed after their mother, who was
in Salina, was unable to contact their father and younger brother. It was an hour and a half before the phone lines cooperated and their father could confirm that they were waiting nervously in the basement under the staircase.
"My brother said it sounded like a freight train was going over our house because it was so loud," Zach said. "They tried to go up the stairs a little but it was so cold and the winds were so strong inside the house they thought the

Rescue workers search through mounds of debris in Greensburg

GREENSBURG — Rescue workers dug through piles of rubble Sunday searching for anyone who might have been trapped by a tornado that obliterated this south-central Kansas town, while officials began talking about rebuilding.
At least 10 people were known dead from weekend storms. Eight of them were in the Greensburg area and two others died elsewhere in Kansas — one during
the Friday night storms that hammered Greensburg and one in a second round of storms late Saturday, state officials said.
Rescue workers on Sunday used trained dogs to sniff for bodies and used their hands and heavy equipment to clear away the rubble. No one else had been found by early afternoon, and officials were hopeful the death toll wouldn't rise.

Injured Washington works for comeback
BY RAHUL SHARMA
All it took was one play and his days of playing football came to an end. For Eric Washington, a former Kansas linebacker, one more hit meant stop.
"I knew in my heart that it was over," Washington said.
Washington suffered a career-ending spinal injury when attempting to tackle an opposing running back against Nebraska last September. Trainers carried the second-year linebacker off the field and rushed him to a Lincoln-area hospital.
Doctors conducted a CT scan and an MRI. They later told Washington
that he would be unable to return to help his team the rest of the season
JACKSON
Despite the doctors' warnings, Washington still wants to return to the team. His life-long drive to compete has pushed him through rehab and possibly to other competitive endeavors. But no matter how hard he works, his physical condition may keep him from playing.
Washington felt devastated that he could not participate in football in the near future.
Washington
"I didn't think it was real." Washington said.
Unable to freely move his arms and thumbs, Washington had surgery the next month and was physically inactive for two months.
The road to recovery remains difficult, Washington said. Doctors told him that he would not be able to play again. Despite learning the truth about his playing future, Washington still felt the urge to compete the same season.
"If I was able to move, I would have played." Washington said.
Washington said he spent extended periods of time in rehab.
"It's like a big waiting game," Washington said, "I was grateful that
Since his days of first taking the football field at the age of 6, Washington never let the thought of an injury keep him from playing sports. Washington said he acquired a relentless sense of pursuit and aggression from his father, who told him, "You better play football."
"You better play football"
I could walk again."

Washington's father, James, did not play football because of his lean frame. However, he insisted his sons, Eric and brother Demetrius, 20, to pursue the sport. From that moment

Whether you are a student interested in increasing your vocabulary or someone who wants something to break up the daily grind, the Scrabble Club is your answer.
The Scrabble Club was founded last January and has 10 active members. Katherine Wiley, president of the club, said she liked to play Scrabble because it took a more
literary mind to play. As someone with a heavy load of science courses, playing the game keeps her more well-rounded, she said.
The club is not cutthroat, but competitiveness is encouraged. Because the club includes a mix of skill levels, the games are light and relaxed. Players who are new to the game should not feel intimidated or hesitant to join, Wiley said.

"In the future, I would hope to
send a person to national competitions with the help of Student Senate to represent KU," Wiley said. "The closest ones would probably be in Texas or Iowa and are held throughout the year."

Fiancée grabs ring after zero-gravity proposal
NEW YORK — Alexander Loucopoulos wasn't afraid he would drop the ring when he proposed to his girlfriend, but he did have another fear.
"I was afraid the ring would float really far away," said Loucopoulos, 32, of New York City.
"I asked if she'd marry me, and then the ring just floated in front of her as we floated in zero gravity," he said. She said yes.
"I was so surprised," Asturias said. "I'm in total shock."
The trip cost $3,500 each and was organized by Space Adventures of Virginia, which also arranged for Charles Simonyi's $20 million flight to space in April. Loucopoulos works as a banker in private equity and Asturias is an architect.
"I would like our 10-year anniversary to be in orbit," Loucopoulos said.

Professor David Scholle, who has purchased several hundred songs from Apple's iTunes online music store, poses at his computer as he prepares for class at Long Beach Community College in Long Beach, Calif. As a new round of talks ramp up this month, Apple CEO Steve Jobs has opened the door to higher prices. In return, he wants music companies to let him sell their songs without technology designed to stop unauthorized copying.
Apple considers price increase
iTunes songs increase 30 cents, sold without technology that stops copying
BY ALEX VEIGA
ASSOCIATED PRESS
LOS ANGELES — The last time Apple Chief Executive Steve Jobs took on major recording companies, he refused to budge on his 99-cent price for a song on iTunes.
As a new round of talks ramp up this month, however, Jobs has opened the door to higher prices, as long as music companies let Apple sell their songs without technology designed to stop unauthorized copying.
Jobs contends that would "tear down the walls" by allowing consumers to play music they buy at Apple's iTunes store on any digital music player, not just the company's iPods.
Although most of the major labels insist that safeguards are still needed ' to stave off online piracy and make
other digital music business models work, one company has already struck a deal with Apple.
Last month, Britain's EMI Music Group PLC, home to artists such as Coldplay, Norah Jones and Joss Stone, agreed to let iTunes sell tracks without the copy-protection technology known as digital-rights management.
The DRM-free tracks cost 30 cents more than copy-restricted versions of EMI songs and feature enhanced sound quality.
The other major labels — Warner Music Group Corp., Vivendi's Universal Music Group, and Sony BMG Music Entertainment, a joint venture of Sony Corp. Bertelsmann AG — will be watching closely to see how the unrestricted EMI tracks sell.
its position in the marketplace," said Michael Gartenberg, an analyst with Jupiter Research. "The fact that they were able to do this deal with EMI puts more pressure on some of the other labels to follow suit."
For their part, at least two of the recording companies will ask Jobs to sell a wider variety of content in digital bundles of songs, videos and other multimedia, according to two recording company executives familiar with their companies' plans. They spoke on condition of anonymity, citing the confidential nature of the negotiations.
Apple already sells some bundled tracks, but the music companies hope expanding those offerings will boost online revenue and help offset lagging CD sales.
Apple and the recording companies declined official comment on their negotiations.
"At this point, no one can ignore Apple or what Apple wants, given

Demonstrators, media consider legal action against police department
Los Angeles Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa, center, talks at MacArthur Park. Jose Perez claims he was injured in the same park during a clash between the Los Angeles Police Department, immigration rights demonstrators and members of the media, in Los Angeles, Calif.
BY ANDREW GLAZER ASSOCIATED PRESS
Stefano Paltera/ASSOCIATED PRESS
LOS ANGELES — Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa condemned the police department's use of force against demonstrators and reporters at an immigration rally, saying he was "deeply, personally troubled" by the clash.
The mayor returned home Friday after cutting short a trade mission to El Salvador and Mexico amid criticism for being out of town since Tuesday's melee at MacArthur Park.
"Like every Angeleno I was deeply, personally troubled by the events of May 1st," the mayor said at city hall. "Those images hit me in the gut.
"We don't need a long and lengthy investigation to stand up and speak to the truth. What happened on May 1st was wrong," he said.
Police struck reporters and demonstrators with batons and fired more than 240 rubber bullets into a crowd that included children at the end of an immigration rights rally. Officers say they responded after being pelted by rocks and bottles.
Though no one was seriously hurt, images of baton-wielding officers knocking people to the ground have played repeatedly on cable TV newscasts, ramping up the pressure on Villaraigosa to return from the trade mission.
State legislators, immigration activists and others returned to MacArthur Park on Friday to denounce the department's conduct.
"To say we are outraged is an understatement," said state assembly speaker Fabian Nunez, (D-Los
At least four investigations, including an FBI civil rights inquiry, have been opened into the police response. Three protesters filed a federal lawsuit, alleging police violated their constitutional rights.
Angeles). "We want those responsible in the highest levels of the LAPD to pay consequences."
The police union criticized Nunez for what it called "police hazing"
"Setting up the population to believe that law enforcement is the enemy is a dangerous game," union President Robert Baker wrote in a letter Friday. "It proves a lethal us-against-them, anti-law enforcement mentality that encourages violence against police officers."
Nunez's spokesman Steve Maviglio said late Friday that the speaker's outrage "should not be misconstrued as attack on the entire LAPD but rather at the command staff and the few officers who were using excessive force ... The police union should be outraged as well since the few who did this tarnishes the reputation of the brave officers who protect and defend us."
Police Chief William J. Bratton expressed "grave concern" about what happened and promised a full investigation. He said the use of force began while officers were dealing with 50 to 100 "agitators" who threw objects. At the press conference, he said he was "embarrassed for this department and embarrassed for the city we serve"
Meanwhile, KTTV television news camerawoman Patti Ballaz filed a claim for unspecified damages against the city and police department alleging civil rights violations. The full nature of Ballaz's actual injuries was not yet clear. She suffered a fractured wrist and injuries to her ankle and was hit in the breast with a police baton, said Kathy Pinckert, a spokeswoman for Ballaz's attorneys.
There was no official tally of how many reporters were struck by police. Local media groups said they would meet this weekend to determine how to proceed.
Victor Narro, an attorney with the National Lawyers Guild who helped organize Tuesday's demonstration, said his group is reviewing videotape and considering whether to sue the department. He noted that in one tape he saw police fire a rubber round at a boy who appeared to be 10 and "toss him aside like a piece of meat."
John Mack, president of the Police Commission, told reporters the clash was "a terrible breakdown."

POLICE INVESTIGATION
Retired friend duo missing
No sign of women two weeks after they leave for a shopping spree
BY DAN SEWELL ASSOCIATED PRESS
LEBANON, Ohio — Mary Ellen Walters and Ada Wasson set out from their retirement community for a routine day of outlet-store shopping, not telling anyone they planned a long trip or asking anyone to feed Walters' beloved dog.
There hasn't been a trace of them in more than two weeks.
Authorities, volunteers and relatives have driven up and down roads covering thousands of square miles of Ohio, Kentucky and Indiana and flown over the region. They've looked for credit card activity, studied store videotapes, checked under bridges and passed out thousands of filers.
Warren County Sheriff's Maj.
John Newsm said it is one of the broadest investigations ever in
this area about midway between Dayton and Cincinnati.
He said there has been no indication of foul play.
"They're out there somewhere. It may be the next square mile we search," said Brad Nixon, Walters son-in-law. "The optimism is reduced ... but how do you stop?"
Walter, 68, and Wasson, 80, are believed to have left the closely knit Otterbein Retirement Living Community on April 19, headed to a J.C. Penney outlet store in either Columbus or Carrollton, Ky., with Wasson driving her 2000 Chevrolet Impala. They were reported missing three days later, when Waters' daughter came to pick her up for an evening out and found worried neighbors.
"That's all we think about," said Dorothy Pfeiffer, Walters' next-door neighbor. "We're kind of like zombies now."
Walters is a mother of three whose husband was in Florida with his own ailing mother. Wasson is a widow with no children.
They had set out for Carrollton's outlet mall, some 80 miles to the southwest, earlier that week but got lost. They had lunch at a restaurant in Kentucky, then came back home, laughing about it, said Cindy Nixon, Walters' daughter.
The two women preferred driving scenic highways rather than Interstate 71. That complicates the search.
Authorities know Wasson filled her car's gas tank the night of April 18, and they left some time the next day.
There, the trail goes cold.
There has been no activity on their credit or bank cards, police say. They didn't take any luggage or give any other signs of planning for a long trip.

Watkins Scholarship Hall uses Cinco de Mayo to hold fundraising event
COMMUNITY SERVICE
A Cinco de Mayo festival at the Wilma Crawford Community Center on Saturday started with clothing donations and ended with fundraising.
Adam Knoermeld, Carlos Hernandez and David Goodlove, members of Adam's Play, play music at a Cincio de Mayo festival Saturday evening at the Willa Crawford Community Center. The event included a fashion show and a clothing drive for the Lawrence community.
HAPPY BIRD
Watkins Scholarship Hall played host to its first Cinco de Mayo party in the recently dedicated center. Organizers of the event said it was time for the scholarship halls to have an entertaining event during the spring season.
"We wanted a tradition for Watkins that could be carried on throughout the years," said Natalie Penn, Topeka sophomore and social chairwoman for Watkins.
Penn said it was important to have fun events for students to attend, but also to help out the community.
More than 1,000 pieces of clothing were donated by scholarship hall students and will be given to the Social Service League in Lawrence. Donated clothes were modeled during the fashion show to exhibit the contribution of KU students.

Watkins Hall and Miller Scholarship Hall students competed in the fashion show, modeling their outfits on the stone patio.
Penn said Lawrence businesses worked with Watkins Hall staff to fund the event by providing prizes
and donating clothes.
"There's a lot of people out there who don't have enough clothes," said Jonathan Evenson, Lawrence senior. "Anytime of the year, people need something."

WORLD Roadside car bombs claim soldiers' Iraqi citizens'lives
Two other American soldiers died Sunday in separate bombings in Baghdad.
BAGHDAD — Roadside bombs killed eight American soldiers in separate attacks Sunday in Diyala province and Baghdad, and a car bomb claimed 30 more lives in a wholesale food market in a part of the Iraqi capital where sectarian tensions are on the rise.
The deadliest attack against U.S. forces occurred in Diyala, where six U.S. soldiers and a European journalist were killed and two U.S. soldiers were wounded when a massive bomb destroyed their vehicle, the U.S. military said.
In all, at least 95 Iraqis were found dead nationwide Sunday, police reported. They included 12 policemen, among them Samarra's police chief, who died when Sunni insurgents launched a suicide car bombing and other attacks on police headquarters.

WASHINGTON (CONTINUED FROM 1A)
on, Washington was determined to shine on the gridiron.
"Until I'm physically unable to play, I'm going to play football." Washington said.
He shined at Detroit's Crockett High School, playing defensive end and tight end. In one game, Washington recorded 17 tackles, three sacks, and three forced fumbles.
"I just would not stop" Washington said. "I was pretty much reckless."
Washington also excelled on the basketball court, becoming the first freshman to make the school's varsity team. However, his involvement in basketball almost put a premature end to his athletic career.
In a semifinal game, Washington cracked his skull, forcing him to miss the entire rest of the semester. As a result, Washington's grades slipped. The school prevented his return until he was healthy.
Washington's next two years in high school remained a struggle in terms of maintaining his grades. He attended night school from 6 to 10. Monday through Friday, during the year and attended summer school to make up for the missed time.
"I could have easily given up." Washington said.
Washington assumed a bigger role in the family when his father passed away in 1994 from natural causes. He said he assumed the role of dad. His relationship with his mother, Linda Hobbs, and brother became closer than ever.
Moving on
"They are like my pride and joy." Washington said.
Washington continued to work hard his junior and senior years in high school. He raised his overall grade point average and made the NCAA qualifying score on the ACT.
Washington's persistence earned him a spot on the school's academic honor roll.
In addition to his academic improvement, Washington excelled on the football field, leading Crocket to a conference and district title his senior year.
Washington received formal offers from Toledo and Minnesota. Originally committed to Toledo, Washington relieved his original commitment and decided to attend Minnesota.
At Minnesota, Washington met Charlton Keith, future teammate and close friend.
"Eric is one of my closest friends," Keith said, a linebacker with the NFL's Oakland Raiders. "When we all went out together, he was always there."
Keith served as a player host for Minnesota, giving Washington a tour of the football program and campus.
The Golden Gophers coaching staff redshirted Washington. He said he understood the reasoning behind the decision because he did not play linebacker in high school.
But despite learning from the sidelines, Washington did not receive playing time heading into the next season. As a result, Washington left the school.
His next stop was Minnesota West Community College in Worthington, Minn. His close friend, Keith, joined him the same year due to personal reasons. In two seasons, Washington compiled 257 tackles and 20.5 sacks.
"I had to be exceptional," Washington said. "I would run more
than the next man. I felt like I had to prove myself. Every day, I was fighting to prove I was a Division-I player."
Washington also committed himself to academics at the school. He established a close relationship with Cheryl Avenel-Navara, Minnesota West academic counselor.
"Football was important to him because it was a means to an end," Avenel-Navara said. "It was a way to provide for his family. Education was very important to him. Football was how he was going to get it."
Washington worked several summer jobs, including being a dishwasher at a local restaurant so he could afford classes at Minnesota West. Keith said Washington once dug a six-foot hole in the ground, earning $50 and later splitting the money with Keith.
"He's like my big brother," Keith said. "If I need something, he'll give it to me."
Sticking together
After one season at Minnesota West, Keith accepted a football scholarship at Kansas in 2004.
Keith said Washington helped him put together his highlight tape for the Kansas coaching staff.
"Eric worries about other people," Avenel-Navara said. "He cares so deeply."
After the coaching staff viewed Keith's tape, the assistants became interested in other prospects at Minnesota West. Keith told the Kansas coaches that there was one other guy that would make a great fit in Lawrence.
"I stick by those that stuck by me," Keith said, referring to his relationship with Washington.
In 2005, Washington received a call from Dave Doeren, former Kansas co-defensive coordinator and linebackers coach, about his prospects of playing for the lavhawks.
Washington became interested. He flew to Lawrence, loving the campus, facilities and the players. He always remembered the pact made with Keith.
"We told each other we were going to go to the same school," Washington said.
After a short time, Kansas offered Washington a scholarship.
"I was the happiest man in the
Although Washington's future appeared bright, things did not go smoothly at the beginning as a Jayhawk. Academics posed a real challenge for him.
world," Washington said.
"It was kind of a rough ride the first year." Washington added.
Having to balance class and practice. Washington also endured a series of injuries, particularly with his shoulders.
Held back by injuries
Despite appearing in 11 games during the 2005 season, Washington underwent multiple surgeries on both shoulders in one month's time, forcing him to miss the team's Fort Worth Bowl appearance in December against Houston. The healing process carried over into spring 2006. He missed the annual spring scrimmage in April.
Taking the advice from team doctors and trainers, Washington did not participate in practice until he fully recovered for two-a-day practices. Even then, Washington experienced a mild concussion.
But that wasn't enough to keep Washington out for good.
At the start of the 2006 season, Washington competed in the first two nonconference games, victories against Northwestern State and Louisiana-Monroe. The third game against Toledo, the school he formerly committed to out of high school, proved to be special. His mother and other family members attended the game and watched him play for the first time in six years.
"They felt important," Washington said.
Even though Kansas fell to Toledo in double overtime, Washington felt proud about his family watching from the stands.
Kansas returned to action versus South Florida the next week in Lawrence. For the first time, Washington experienced a feeling like never before as a player. He said his body was starting to shut down throughout the course of the game.
"I couldn't stand up straight," Washington remembered. "Players were noticing that something was wrong with me, I didn't understand what I was doing."

Today, Washington continues to walk the Kansas campus. He's pursuing a degree in early childhood development and expects to graduate in Mav 2008.
In the following week of practice, the team prepared for a road game against Nebraska, a school that Washington dreamed of playing for as a child. Unfortunately, the next game would be his last.

son. Washington said his mother believed her son was free from the burden of lofty expectations in football and could focus his life in other areas.

Cancer survivor climbs North Pole
BY MEGHAN BARR ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK — The bone-numbing trek to the North Pole is riddled with enough perils to make a seasoned explorer quake: Frostbite threats, polar bears loom and the ice is constantly shifting beneath frozen feet.
But Barbara Hillary took it all in stride, completing the trek to the world's northernmost point last month at the age of 75. She is one of the oldest people to reach the North Pole, and is believed to be the first African-American woman on record to accomplish the feat.
Hillary, of Averne, N.Y., grew up in Harlem and devoted herself to a nursing career and community activism. At 67 and during retirement, she battled lung cancer. Five years later, she went dog sledding in Quebec and photographed polar bears in Manitoba.
Then she heard that a black woman had never made it to the North Pole.
"I said, 'What's wrong with this picture?' she said. "So I sort of rolled into this, shall we say."
In 1909, Matthew Henson made history as the first black man to reach the Pole, though his accomplishment was not officially recognized for decades—it was overshadowed by the presence of his white colleague, Robert Peary.
Ann Bancroft, a physical education teacher from Minnesota, was the North Pole's first female visitor in 1986 as a member of the Steger Polar Expedition, which arrived unassisted in a re-creation of the 1909 trip. Various scientific organizations said no record exists of a black woman matching Bancroft's feat, although such record-keeping is not perfect.
"It's not like there's a guest book when you get up there and you sign it," said Robert Russell, founder of Eagles Cry Adventures, Inc., the travel company that leads thrill-seekers like Hillary to the furthest corners of the globe. Russell conducted six months' worth of research, interviewing fellow polar
expedition contractors and digging through history books, but failed to find a black woman who had completed the trek.
Russell's paying customers can travel to the North Pole in various ways, from 18-day cross-country ski trips to simply being dropped off at the Pole via helicopter. The trip costs about $21,000 per person.
Hillary insisted on skiing except she had never been on the slopes before.
So she enrolled in cross-country skiing lessons and hired a personal trainer, who finally determined she was physically fit for the voyage.
"She's a headstrong woman. You don't tell her 'no' about too many things," Russell said.
Hillary scraped together thousands of dollars and solicited private donors. On April 18, she arrived in Longyearben, Norway, where it is common for people to carry guns to ward off hungry polar bears.
"Before I arrived, the word was out that soul food was coming," she joked.
The travelers were then flown to the base camp—which is rebuilt each year due to melting ice—and pitched their tents. On April 23 Hillary set off on skis with two trained guides. Russell, fearing for her health, had convinced her to take the daylong ski route to the Pole in lieu of the longer trips.
As the sunlight glinted off the ice, distorting her gaze, Hillary struggled beneath a load of gear and pressed on. In her euphoria at reaching the Pole, she forgot the cold and removed her gloves, causing her fingers to become frostbitten.
Standing at the top of the world, she could have cared less. The enormous expanse of ice and sky left Hillary, for once in her long life, speechless.
While such expeditions serve as major accomplishments, some historians and Arctic experts criticize what they call an over-hyping of being the "first" to do something. For Hillary, the achievement extends beyond race. She hopes her journey will inspire other cancer survivors.

FISH AND GAME DEPARTMENT
State seeks funding from tax revenues
BY KATHARINE WEBSTER
ASSOCIATED PRESS
ASSOCIATED PRESS
NORTHWOOD, N.H. — Carl Wallman used to raise prize-winning Black Angus cattle on 211 acres of pastures, woods and swamp in this central New Hampshire town.
Now retired, Wallman has changed his focus' to making Harmony Hill Farm hospitable for everything from bear to butterflies, moose to meadowlarks.
He says hed be hard-pressed to do it all without advice and small grants from the state Fish and Game Department, like one that pays him to mow his fields when the hay is past its prime, so bobolinks and other grassland birds can nest and raise their chicks.
"Farming, you're just managing for one species, and here you're managing for thousands, so you really need their input," he said. "I don't think most people have any idea how much they do."
Whether that help will continue is an open question, however. Like other state fish and wildlife agencies around the country, the New Hampshire Fish and Game Department has been hit hard by a national decline in fishing and hunting. That's because it depends on sales of hunting and fishing licenses—and federal grants tied to that income—to fund most of its work.
For the first time in its history, the New Hampshire agency is seeking significant funding from general state tax revenues, arguing it cannot remain self-supporting without drastic cuts in staff and services.
"The history of this department has always been, 'User pays,' Lee Perry, the agency's executive director, said in a recent interview. "When we were primarily dealing with hunters and anglers, it made sense. But ... there are an awful lot of other people using the resource and benefiting from the resource who aren't paving."
"User pays" has fallen short for
state wildlife agencies from Maine to California that were set up to regulate hunting and fishing.
Compounding the financial squeeze are new and expanded missions: protecting endangered species and habitat, leading search and rescue operations, enforcing off-road vehicle laws and helping track diseases that affect wildlife and humans.
Some of those tasks came with new user fees or federal dollars, but others did not. For a while, states bridged the gap by raising license fees, but hunters and anglers have balked at providing the sole financial support for activities that also benefit birdwatchers, hikers, kayakers and wildlife tourists, all of whose numbers are on the rise.
Some states reached the breaking point more than a decade ago—and persuaded voters or legislators to provide more funding. Arizona and Colorado dedicate some lottery and gambling revenues. Texas and Virginia tax sales of outdoor equipment. Minnesota has an incometax checkoff, and other states sell special license plates, according to a University of Minnesota study.
The biggest funding gap is for conservation efforts involving species that aren't hunted or fished and aren't endangered — about 80 percent of all wildlife, said Naomi Edelson, director of Teaming With Wildlife, a coalition of conservation groups and agencies.
Congress passed the State Wildlife Grants program in 2001 to help. But while the federal hunting and fishing grant programs provide $3 for every dollar raised by states, the State Wildlife Grants require a one-to-one match—and states have no obvious user fees they can tap for their share. That's put even more pressure on agencies to develop new funding.
Two states are clear leaders: Arkansas and Missouri. Both have dedicated, 1/8-cent conservation sales taxes, a mechanism that should keep pace with inflation.
》 IRAQ
BY LIBBY QUAID ASSOCIATED PRESS
GOP acknowledges concerns with Bush war plan
WASHINGTON — The House Republican leader said Sunday that GOP support could waver if President Bush's Iraq war policy does not succeed by the fall.
House Minority Leader John Boehner (R-Ohio) said Bush's troop increase deserves a shot and that funding should continue even if benchmarks for success are not met.
A senior Democrat said it would be "ridiculous" not to condition war money upon a troop withdrawal.
"We don't even have all of the 30,000 additional troops in Iraq yet, so we're supporting the president. We want this plan to have a chance of succeeding," Boehner said.
"Over the course of the next
three to four months, we'll have some idea how well the plan's working. Early signs are indicating there is clearly some success on a number of fronts" he said.
But, he added, "By the time we get to September or October, members are going to want to know how well this is working, and if it isn't, what's Plan B?"
Thus far, Republicans have stood behind the president's increasingly unpopular war policies, including the troop increase and an opened war commitment.
Yet Boehner's comments were an acknowledgment of the concern expressed by some lawmakers in private that their support could further damage the party, which lost control of Congress in the November elections.
The senior Republican on the
Senate Foreign Relations committee, Sen. Richard Lugar of Indiana, said Boehner is correct.
"General Petraeus will be back. He'll make a report," Lugar said of Gen. David Petraeus, commander of U.S. forces in Iraq. "Some things will go well. Some things will not go so well, but we'll still have an obligation."
The new Democratic leadership is pushing to begin pulling troops out of Iraq, Connecticut Sen. Chris Dodd, a Democratic presidential candidate, said congressional Republicans increasingly seem uneasy about Bush's policies.
"So we may disagree politically here, but remember where the American public is on this issue: They want a change. They think we're getting less secure, far more vulnerable today, than ever before, and they want a change in this policy," he said.
Last week, Bush vetoed a $124 billion bill to provided money for Iraq and Afghanistan operations in part because it required troops to begin returning home by Oct. 1,
"It would be ridiculous to think that we're going to just drop this fight," said Democratic Rep. Charles Rangel of New York, chairman of the tax-writing House Ways and Means Committee.
saying the fixed date is unworkable.
"This is not our fight. This is the American people's fight. They asked us to send a message to the president."
Top White House aides are negotiating with Democratic leaders on a new war spending bill.
"We've got to shake that White House until the people of the United States are heard," Rangel said. "Sure, we've got to have some restrictions on the money."
BARTONline
Another Democratic presidential candidate, former Sen. John Edwards of North Carolina, argued against negotiating and said lawmakers should keep sending Bush the same Iraq spending bill.

The two were among the musicians performing at the New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival and giving back to a region still trying to recover from Hurricane Katrina.

for violating probation in an alcohol-related reckless driving case by driving with a suspended license.
LOS ANGELES — Paris Hilton worked as a farmer and maid on her TV show "The Simple Life." Now she's facing a real-life hardship in her latest role: jail inmate.
As an inmate, she might have to spend most of her day in a cell smaller than her closet — her only luxury escape a short period to shower, watch TV, exercise or talk on the phone.
Hilton, who parlayed her name and relentless partying into worldwide notoriety, was sentenced Friday to 45 days in county jail
"I'm very sorry and from now on I'm going to pay complete attention to everything. I am sorry and I did not do it on purpose at all," Hilton
told a judge before the sentencing.
Superior Court Judge Michael T. Sauer, saying "there's no doubt she knew her license had been suspended," ordered that Hilton report to a women's jail in suburban Lynwood by June 5.
The judge's ruling did not allow any work release, furloughs, use of an alternative jail or electronic monitoring in lieu of jail. Nor could Hilton pay to serve time in a jail of her choice, as some are allowed.

Friends honor James Brown Loved ones gather in singer's to protest music industry
BY SAMANTHA GROSS ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK — Friends and relatives gathered on what would have been James Brown's 74th birthday Thursday to remember the soul singer — and question the direction of the music industry.
"How did we get from 'Sait it loud, I'm black and I'm proud', to where we are today?" said his daughter Deanna Brown Thomas, referencing to her father's famous lyrics.
Earlier Thursday, the Rev. Al Sharpton led a rally, calling on the music industry to own up to what he called racist and sexist language. Protesters marched through Manhattan to the headquarters of major music labels like Sony, Warner, Universal and Time Warner.
The assault on the music industry came less than a month after radio host Don Imus was fired for making racist and sexist comments.

ENTERTAINMENT 'Gilmore Girls' mom OK with show ending May 15
NEWYORK — Lauren Graham, who plays an independent mom in the drama-comedy "Gilmore Girls," says she's not upset the show is ending.
"I think it's the best decision for the show," Graham told Newsweek for editions that will hit newstands on Monday. "One of the things Alexis (Bledel, her costar) and I wished could be different was the schedule, and it really can't be."
The CW network announced last week the show would end May 15 after seven seasons on the air.
Created by Amy Sherman-Palladino, the show became popular in large part because of its witty, comedy-infused banter. Set in fictional Stars Hollow, Conn., the series chronicles the saga of a single mother, Lorelai, and her daughter, Rory, who are more like best friends than parent and child.
Graham has previously said getting the rapid dialogue right takes a lot of time, and it has taken its toll over the years. The show also suffered creatively and in the ratings this year after Sherman-Palladino and her husband left last season after a contract dispute.
'Spider-Man 3' takes first at weekend box office
LOS ANGELES — Spider-Man caught just about everyone in his web. The superhero's latest adventure, "Spider-Man 3," smashed box-office records with $148 million in its first three days, according to studio estimates Sunday.
That put it ahead of the previous record debut of $135.6 million set last summer by "Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest."
With $59.3 million on opening day Friday, Sony's "Spider-Man 3" broke the single-day box-office record, also held by "Dead Man's Chest" with $55.8 million in its first day.
Since it began rolling out overseas on Tuesday, "Spider-Man 3" has taken in $227 million in foreign markets, bringing the film's worldwide total to $375 million. In just days, the movie has grossed $117 million more than its whopping
$258 million production budget.
In just two days, it also nearly matched the $114.8 million opening weekend of 2002's "Spider-Man," which had held the debut record until "Dead Man's Chest" opened.
The overall box office soared from "Spider-Man 3," with the top-12 movies taking in $176.6 million, up 77 percent from the same weekend a year ago, when "Mission: Impossible III" opened with $47.7 million.
"Spider-Man 3" outdid that movie by $100 million and grossed more in each of its first two days than "Mission: Impossible III" did over the full weekend.
Also among the records smashed by "Spider-Man 3" was a $4.8 million domestic gross at huge-screen IMAX theaters, topping the previous best of $3.6 million set by "300" in March.
Playing in a record 4,252 locations domestically, "Spider-Man 3" averaged a whopping $34,807 a theater.
10 is the easiest day, 0 the most challenging.

》 OUR VIEW
Take precautions, be a voice against sexual violence
The liberating college experience — overflowing with occasions to party and drink excessively — is unfortunately a period in which sexual violence is frequent, particularly against women. According to a report by the Office of Justice Programs, 20-25 percent of women are raped during their time at college. Sexual violence is also one of the most under-reported crimes. Many women, fearing social judgment and ostracism, don't tell anyone about their experiences. Indeed because the vast majority of sexual violence is committed
by acquaintances and alcohol is often a factor, female victims are frequently fearful of reporting sexual violence to authorities and friends alike.
Thus the silent epidemic continues and is devastating both for its victims and for society. In few cases, it leads to suicide. More generally, it fuels hatred and distrust and creates unhealthy implications for future relationships. In recognition of the personal and societal devastation caused by sexual violence, students, especially in university settings, should take steps to prevent incidents and to
support victims.
To stop sexual violence from occurring, create a buddy system at parties. Leaving someone behind because they're too drunk to move is not a good idea. Inducing blackouts is, to put it lightly, never wise. In general, don't drink excessively in strange environments.
Women, demand respect
— don't bother flirting with or even talking to men who degrade women with inappropriate jokes and comments. Remember that first dates should be in public locations. Also, "bad feelings" about a
date should be taken seriously. If faced with unwanted sexual approaches, be disgusting. Belch, fart, pick your nose and become schizophrenically hysterical.
Men, be respectful — recognize the daily pressures women encounter to be "perfect" and avoid being one of these pressures. Don't stand for "guy talk" that involves jokes about taking advantage of girls — they're not funny. Remember that guys aren't invincible and can be victims — yes, victims — of unwanted sex, too.
Through conversation,
students can also dispel rape related stereotypes. For example, rape usually doesn't involve a horny stranger jumping out of a dark alleyway welding a knife. Often, perpetrators can be our own acquaintances. Furthermore, no girl "asks for it." Women in revealing clothing may be asking for attention - unsurprisingly, since our sexist culture has taught women to get attention with their bodies - but they're certainly not asking to be raped.
common than one would like to think. Be supportive of friends who have opened up about their experiences. For those who have not shared their experience, talk, at the very least contact a university counselor. For the bolder individuals who have experienced sexual violence, speak out loudly to help inform and protect future generations of students.
Lastly, recognize that sexual violence happens, sometimes despite precautions, and is more
Our precautions, support and outspokenness can help stop this silent epidemic.

Teamwork takes responsibility
"The way a team plays as a whole determines its success. You may have the greatest bunch of individual stars in the world, but if they don't play together, the club won't be worth a dime." — Babe Ruth
Babe Ruth has one heck of an obvious, but logical point. This previous weekend, April 27 through 29, the intramural softball men's women's and co-ed tournaments took place. The team I was part of played in the co-ed league, a league that saw game after game forfeited because of teammates not showing up.
As Babe Ruth said, several "clubs" weren't "worth a dime" because teammates couldn't figure out that others were depending on them.
PENGUIN
Yes, challenges were certainly in place to overcome. Throughout the league's season, teams were signed up to play on specific nights and at specific times so that team members could make their play times work for them. However, every team was required to be able to play on any day of the tournament weekend

— and be available to play at any time throughout those days.
Another challenge to note is that a few games were even scheduled for 8 a.m. time slots on Sunday morning.
Eight in the morning is an early time, but team members had a week to realize this and plan ahead for an early start. For some reason, many players remained absent, leaving their teammates frantically calling anyone they could think of to fill the spot.
If they had a team presentation to give for class, would they have made it? Or would they have expected the others to make the presentation for them? Based on what happened at the tournaments, they would have slept in and not

By the way, the main ingredient in Coca-Cola is carbonated water, not sugar. Get your facts straight.
College students are stereotypically known for their undependability, laziness and ability to come up with any excuse to get out of something they don't want to do. So what was our team thinking when we decided to depend on college-aged students?

Women have a choice in abortions
Fact: Abortion may be legal, but that does not mean that everyone is required to have one. We can sit back and sentimentalize the destruction of 48 million fetuses all we want, but to do so means to overlook much more pertinent information.
One of the biggest controversies in the abortion debate is when life begins. The heart begins to beat about three weeks into pregnancy; however, a fetus is incapable of surviving outside the womb until about twenty weeks. Is something incapable of sustaining its own existence truly alive? Furthermore,
abortion occurs naturally 15 to 40 percent of the time, according to PlannedParenthood.org.
Studies have shown that women who have children complete a lower level of education. Raising a child takes money, time, and energy. A student, at the high school or collegiate level, has none of these to devote to a child. One mistake, her fault or not, should not condemn a woman for the rest of her life. After all, it takes two people to make a baby.
I feel like I'm opening a can of worms in mentioning paternal roles but it must be addressed. I'd be nice
if a father took responsibility, agreed to pay child support and helped raise the child, but this is not guaranteed. When men are capable of facing the risks of pregnancy and/or are legally bound to assume responsibility, they should have a say in what happens to a fetus.
Some people say that in a perfect world, no one would have sex until they're married and ready for a child. I say, in a perfect world birth control would be 100 percent effective and abortions would be legal everywhere.

Stephanie said having 24-hour news coverage of her small hometown, seeing the images shown and hearing first-hand accounts by friends who lived it made the situation seem horrific, but not being there made it all surreal.
"Everything is gone," she said.
"It looks like a landfill. I usually don't know what they're showing because it's unrecognizable. And I lived there for 18 years."
Zach said he hadn't watched the news a lot, but he did watch CNN's helicopter coverage.
"The only thing I recognized was one bank and the Quik Shop because the sign was on the ground," he said. "The school I went to you can hardly make out the brick building."

"Everyone I know of that lives in town, their houses are destroyed," Zach said.
Stephanie said the town was so tightly knit that she recognized all of the faces she saw on the news and knew every resident who was killed in the storm. The Associated Press reported that at least eight people in Greensburg were killed in the storm.
Even through the tremendous amount of destruction that the tornado brought, Zach said it was neat to see friends away from Greensburg at various colleges who all wanted to go back to do what they could to help.
"I know who is alive because of who I see in the shelters in the news," she said. "It's hard to contact anyone because calls drop and cut out. It makes it a guessing game."

Zach, Stephanie and Kelly McKinney, Greensburg freshman, left Saturday morning at around 6 a.m. to meet other Greensburg students in Manhattan. By the time they had reached Emporia, Zach and Stephanie's mother called and told them to turn around.
"She told us they were under another tornado watch, and we wouldn't be allowed in on the highways." Stephanie said.
The three tentatively plan to travel home Wednesday, pending road conditions and whether Greensburg is open.
McKinney was also in Lawrence when she heard bad weather was headed to her hometown. She traveled to Haviland, a neighboring town 10 miles east of Greensburg, on Saturday after the trip with the Whites failed. Shelters have been set up in Haviland, but McKinney is staving with relatives.
McKinney traveled to her Greensburg house Sunday with family to see the damage. They were able to see the house because it was located south of Greensburg where traffic was still moving. Everything
but the home's kitchen sink and part of a counter was destroyed.
jayhawkbookstore.com
"The house is gone," McKinney said. "It looks like someone put the whole town in a box and just shook it up. There is random stuff strewn everywhere."
McKinney's mother was mostly worried about her crystal and china. Amazingly, the china cabinet it was stored in was turned on its front with both sides torn off but only a few pieces of the dishes were broken. They also recovered photo albums.
McKinney said the only way they knew how to get around was the town's grain elevator that was among the few buildings still standing.
"We also found my sister's purse and graduation dress that she just bought," McKinney said. "It still has the tags on it but is just really dirty."
"When you see pictures it doesn't show the magnitude of what happened," she said. "It's just unbelievable. It's flattered."
McKinney said the lives of 28 Greensburg students and six adults were saved because of a trip to Salina for state forensics. McKinney's mother was one of the adults.
"It's just really cool that many people didn't have to be there when it happened." McKinney said. "A lot of people should have died and didn't."
The Red Cross estimated that 90 percent of the city was destroyed or heavily damaged. More than 60 people were injured and the Red Cross reported that at least 400 residents were taken to shelters in schools and other facilities in nearby towns.
McKinney said she planned to return to Lawrence Tuesday evening to return to classes and study for finals.

THE MISSING KITTEN
Fernando Salazar/ASSOCIATED PRESS
Eleven-year-old Tyler Mcintosh found a new friend while collecting things in his home Sunday in Greensburg. Rescue workers dug through piles of rubble Sunday searching for anyone who might have been trapped by Friday's tornado that obliterated the south-central Kansas town, while officials began talking about rebuilding.

begins" said Kansas state trooper Ronald Knoefel.
Maj. Gen. Tod Bunting, the state's adjutant general, said officials did not know if anyone was missing.
"A lot of people have gone to other places and it's difficult to track them down," he said.
National Guard engineers were helping with the search, which was expected to wind down by the evening.
"Some of the rubble is just so deep," Bunting said. "That's really what our problem is."
While some residents wondered about the town's future, Hainje was optimistic.
"The town will be back. I have no doubt of that." he said.
Greensburg remained off limits to residents Sunday, but officials said they would be allowed to return Monday morning to recover what they could. Residents were to be bused in and must be out of town by 6 p.m.
President Bush declared parts of Kansas a disaster area, freeing up federal money to aid in recovery.
Dick Hainje, regional administrator for the Federal Emergency Management Agency, said the agency was bringing in travel trailers for some of the town's residents — trailers that had been ordered for people displaced by Hurricane Katrina. But it wasn't clear when people would be able to move in to the trailers; debris was in the way and the town had no clean water.
"It's going to take a long time for the community to recover," Bush said Sunday, referring to Greensburg, after attending a morning service at a church in Washington. "And so we'll help in any way we can."

The storms in Kansas were part of a weekend of violent weather, with tornadoes also dashing across other parts of the Plains states late Saturday. And on Sunday, the National Weather Service posted a new tornado warning for south-central Kansas, saying a funnel cloud was spotted near Corwin, 65 miles southeast of Greensburg.
Gov. Kathleen Sebelius planned to tour Greensburg on Sunday, and U.S. Sen. Sam Brownback was to visit Monday.
The National Weather Service classified the tornado as an F-5, the most powerful possible. The weather service said it cut a 22-mile track, 1.7 miles wide, and had winds estimated at 205 miles per hour. The last tornado of that strength was in Oklahoma City on May 3, 1999, and killed 36 people.
Greensburg Administrator Steve Hewitt, who lost his home, estimated 95 percent of the town of 1,500 was destroyed.
"I see a community coming together. I see a future here. I really do," Hewitt said.
State Rep. Dennis McKinney, the House minority leader and a Greensburg resident, said he hoped to rebuild his home in the same place. But other residents were unsure about the town's future.
"I if hear that people are going stay and were going to have a school, then I'll stay," said Greensburg High School shop teacher Peter Kern, who had lived in the town for the last
year. "If we don't have a school, I don't have a job."
Darin Headrick, superintendent of Greensburg's public schools, said classes will be canceled for the rest of the academic year, with graduation being held elsewhere. When school resumes in August, the district, which has about 300 students, will hold classes in other communities.
Among the few structures that survived was the Bar H Tavern, which was briefly converted into a morgue. Command operations for rescue efforts were moved into the town's courthouse, which was damaged but still standing. The massive concrete silos of a grain elevator still towered over what was left of the town.
All the churches were destroyed. Every business on main street was demolished. The town's fire engines were crushed and other crumpled vehicles were thrown around. Tree trunks stood bare, stripped of most of their branches.
The town's claim to fame — the world's biggest hand dug well — was buried under a mountain of debris. The gift store at the well had disappeared.
For decades, meteorite hunters from throughout the world have been drawn here to hunt for meteorites. The town's extensive meteorite collection, including one weighing 1,000 pound, was one of the casualties of the storm.

Records broken at Arkansas invitational

Junior Ashley Brown's career has had its ups and downs, but Friday was arguably her best day as a Jayhawk, as she set a school record in the 100-meter hurdles with her third-place time of 13.31 seconds.
Several other Jayhawks had a productive day on Friday night at the Arkansas Twilight Invitational, with five athletes setting or improving their regional marks.

In the 110-meter hurdles, sophomore Julius Jiles ran a career-best time of 13.85 seconds for second place.

Back on the track, sophomore
Victoria Howard, who already owns a regional time in the 100-meter dash, added another regional mark in the 200 meters. Howard won the race in 23.45 seconds, the third-fastest time in school history.

Junior infielder Erik Morrison and the Jayhawks lost the series to Kansas State this week, making it the first sweep of the season. "We've played the top six teams in the league and have managed to avoid doining that. I certainly didn't expect that to happen this weekend," coach Ritch Price said.
K-State sweep blurs future
In last place, Kansas crosses fingers for Big 12 Tournament appearance
BY ALISSA BAUER
After the series victory at Oklahoma, coach Ritch Price expressed his relief that his team still controlled its own postseason destiny.
The Jayhawks no longer have that luxury.
This weekend, the weather and Kansas State teamed up to sweep Kansas (22-28. 8-15 Big 12 Conference) for the first time this
conference season. K-State took game one in Manhattan on Friday and again in Lawrence on Saturday. When Sunday's chance at redemption was rained out, not only did the Jayhawks fall into the conference cellar, they also were forced to take a sweep based on technicality.

"I've been really proud of the fact that we haven't been swept all year," coach Price said on Saturday. "It's the first time in the five years I've been here. We've played the top six teams in the league and have managed to avoid doing that. I certainly didn't expect that to happen this weekend."
Kansas plays host to Nebraska May 18-20 in the last Big 12 Conference series. The jayhawks no longer completely determine their return to the tournament they won one year ago.
Oklahoma (28-19, 8-12) and Baylor (26-21, 8-13) sit in the final two tournament spots as of Sunday. Although Texas Tech (26-21, 7-13) has one less conference victory, the Red Raiders still hold the tie-breaker advantage over Kansas. Only the Sooners would give the Jayhawks an advantage in a tie-breaking situation.
Freshman infielder Robby Price and the Jayhawks have to wait until Texas Tech and Oklahoma play and until Nebraska meets Baylor before they will know if their Big 12 tournament dreams are kept alive. Kansas fell into last place in the conference after a weekend sweep to Kansas State.

All Kansas can do is wait as Tech and Oklahoma play each other and K-State and Baylor play. Nebraska takes on Baylor next weekend while Oklahoma State and Tech play. In the meantime, Chicago State will be in Lawrence to play a Jayhawk squad pulling hard for Nebraska and Oklahoma State.
Making the tournament would have been nearly in the bag had the Jayhawks' weekend gone in an opposite direction.

88 Pedigree
RICHMOND, Va. — Jimmie Johnson led teammate Kyle Busch to a 1-2 finish at Richmond International Raceway on Sunday, the third consecutive victory for Hendrick Motorsports.
Hendrick takes top 2 spots
Hendrick has won seven of the past eight Nextel Cup races and swept all four races in which NASCAR has used its new Car of Tomorrow.
Ricky Rudd (88) and Ward Burton (4) scrape the wall as Tony Stewart (20) makes contact during the last few laps of the NASCAR Crown Royal 400 Nextel Cup. The auto race was at the Richmond International Raceway in Richmond, Va., Sunday.
It looked as if Hendrick would finish 1-2-3 for the final 100 laps of the race, as Johnson, Busch and pole-sitter Jeff Gordon battled for the lead. But Gordon faded over the final 15 laps and gave up third place to Denny Hamlin.
Gordon, who won the past two weeks, settled for fourth as Cheviroltes took the top four spots in the race that began briefly Saturday night with 12 laps run under caution before it was halted because of rain. It started fresh on Sunday.
Johnson, the defending Nextel Cup champion, won for the fourth time this season but first at RIR. The .75-mile track has been among the worst on his resume, with Johnson having scored only one top 10 finish in 15 previous visits.
"This means the world to me to win here," Johnson said. "We haven't been that strong here. It reminds me of Indy last year, and we beat a track that's been tough on us. We looked at it as a new oppor-
unity for the team and myself to learn the right setup and for me to learn the right rhythm of the track and had some awesome racing with my teammate."
In this year of Hendrick Motorsports, everything is clicking and the competition is admittedly frustrated.
"You can argue that Hendrick has all the best drivers," Hamlin said. "It's tough to beat them when they've got four very, very good teams. We've got three good teams, but when you've got four like they have — all competitive and all running up front every week, the information that they exchange is going to be better."
Only Casey Mears, the fourth driver in the Hendrick stable, is struggling. He wrecked early and finished 18th.
"We've got great race teams and I'd say probably four of the best 10 or 12 drivers out there," he said. "It's hard to beat the best drivers with the best equipment and the best teams. You just have everything all pieced together correctly."
Busch said the entire organization is the class of the NASCAR right now.
Only Kevin Harvick had a car that could challenge the Hendrick crew, and the Daytona 500 winner led 106 laps midway through the race. He was out front when the sixth caution of the race sent the field into the pits, but as Harvick pulled out, he clipped rookie David Ragan, who was heading into his
It caused considerable damage to the front of Harvick's car and forced him to stop for repairs. He was in 17th, with heavy black tape around the nose of his Chevolet, when the race resumed and never challenged again. He rallied to finish seventh.
"We just didn't communicate." Harvick said.
stall.
Kurt Busch finished fifth and was followed by his Penske Racing teammate Ryan Newman in sixth. Tony Stewart, Clint Bowyer and Matt Kenseth rounded out the top 10.
After Harvick's pit-road error, Kurt Busch briefly moved to the front, but his stay was brief. David Gilland wrecked to bring out a caution and Kurt Busch ducked onto pit road for service. But the leaders didn't follow him, and Busch shuffled back to ninth on the restart.
It it the three Hendrick cars out front, as Johnson, Kyle Busch and Gordon were 1-2-3 when the race resumed. Jeff Green then hit Dale Earnhardt Jr., to cause Earnhardt to spin and bring out the eighth caution of the day.
It didn't change the running order, as the three Hendrick cars stayed out front until a debris caution with 82 laps to go. Dave Blaney broke up the Hendrick party with a two-tire pit stop that saw Johnson and Gordon come out in first and second. Blaney third and Kyle Busch fourth with 78 laps to go.

Woods wins Wachovia tournament Top golfers compete for title, cash prize
BY DOUG FERGUSON ASSOCIATED PRESS
Tiger Woods added the Wachovia Championship to his growing collection of trophies Sunday with a 60-foot eagle putt to take the lead, a double bogey that kept it interesting, and by avoiding the kind of calamity that doomed his challengers down the stretch at Quail Hollow.
CHARLOTTE, N.C. — A tournament that looks like a major now has a winner whose career is defined by them.
Backed by a two-shot lead on the toughest hole on the course, Woods played it safe and made par from 8 feet to close with a 3-under 69 for a two-shot victory over Steve Stricker.
Despite the topsy-turvy finish,
the outcome was all too familiar.
It was Woods' third victory this year, and his ninth on the PGA Tour in his last 12 starts dating to his missed cut in the U.S. Open. He finished at 13-under 275, the lowest score to win the tournament, and earned $1.134 million for the 57th victory of his career. He also went atop the FedEx Cup standings for the first time this season.
"Over the course of my career, I've won a few tournaments here and there, and it's been nice," Woods said. "This one, considering the field and the golf course and the conditions, ecstatic to have won here."
Stricker had his best chance to win for the first time since 2001, one shot behind with three holes to play. He hit into the trees and the sand on the 16th on his way to double bogey, recovered with a 30-foot birdie on the 17th, then lost all hope when he went for the flag on the 18th and hit into the creek. He shot 69.
Rory Sabbatini, who said he wanted Woods in the final pairing, didn't make a par until the 10th hole and closed with a 74 to tie for third with Phil Mickelson, who closed with a 70 but was never a factor.
The Wachovia Championship is only 5 years old but already regarded one of the best stops on the PGA Tour with its world-class course and strong field — only the Masters and two World Golf Championships had more top players. Of the five winners in its short history, four of them are major champions.

Clemens returns to Yankees
BY RONALD BLUM ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK — Roger Clemens returned to the New York Yankees, making a dramatic announcement *to fans from the owner's box during 'Sunday's game against the Seattle Mariners.
At the end of the seventh-inning stretch, Yankees public address announcer Bob Sheppard told fans to turn their attention to the box, where Clemens was standing with a microphone. As the video scoreboard in right-center showed Clemens, the seven-time Cy Young award winner made the announcement himself.
"Well, they came and got me out of Texas and I can tell you it's a privilege to be back." Clemens said. "I'll be talking to vall soon."
Clemens, who will turn 45 in August, agreed to a minor league contract and most likely will join the Yankees after spending several weeks getting into shape. He hopes to be pitching in the major leagues by late May or June 1.
"I'm about at playing weight right now," he said. "I feel pretty good."
The Rocket pitched for New York from 1999-2003. He left the Yankees after the 2003 season, saying he
was retiring, but after Andy Pettitte signed with the Houston Astros. Clemens followed his friend to their hometown team.
Pettite returned to the Yankees this year, and Clemens followed on Sunday.
"It's another challenge," said Clemens, eighth on the career list with 348 victories. "I expect to do things at the age of 44, 45 like I did at 25."
He chose New York over two of his other former teams, the Astros and Boston Red Sox.
"Let's face it — these guys know how to win," Clemens said, adding that captain Derek Jeter pressed him to return as New York struggled early this season.
The Yankees have been beset by a rash of injuries to their pitching staff, contributing to a disappointing 14-15 start. But they beat the Mariners 5-0 on Sunday for their fifth victory in six games after losing eight of nine.
"Derek was on me once a week, especially when things weren't working out," Clemens said. "I see the problems with the pitching staff, too, the injuries are incredible."
Clemens said the entire process happened within the past 48 hours or so, and he didn't even tell Petitte or
Jeter that it was a done deal.
"Andy is going to be pretty upset with me!" Clemens said.
Clemens will have the same travel privileges he had with Houston last year, when he sometimes skipped road trips if he wasn't scheduled to pitch. Instead, he spent the time at home with his family or working with Astros minor leaguers.
Yankees manager Joe Torre ran that issue by several clubhouse leaders who signed off on the arrangement, general manager Brian Cashman said.
"It's time to go to work." Clemens said. "I've got a lot of work to do to get back up here."
Traded from Toronto to the Yankees before the 1999 season, Clemens helped New York win consecutive World Series titles in his first two seasons in the Bronx. He won the AL Cy Young Award with a 20-3 record in 2001 and was a member of pennant winners that year and in 2003.
"As I pledged just a few days ago, I will do everything within my power to support Brian Cashman, Joe Torre and this team as we fight to bring a 27th championship to New York," owner George Steinbrenner said in a statement.

Cardinals recall outfielder
ST.LOUIS — Persistent knee pain landed St. Louis Cardinals outfielder Preston Wilson on the 15-day disabled list Sunday, and the team replaced him with its best minor league hitter.
Outfielder Ryan Ludwick, whose contract was purchased from Triple-A Memphis, was batting a team-leading .340 with eight home runs, and his 36 RBI and 27 runs led the Pacific Coast League. Manager Tony La Russa immediately plugged him into the struggling lineup that trailed the NL in runs, batting him sixth against the Houston Astros on Sunday. He played right field.
"He's playing well and that spot is open," La Russa said. "He's excited, ready to go, so let him go."
The team also purchased the contract of right-handed reliever Brian Falkenborg, who leads the PCL with nine saves and was 0-1 with a 2.03 ERA in 11 games.
Wilson was batting .219 with one homer and five RBI in 64 at bats. He had been getting a lot of playing time
with outfielder Juan Encarnacion on a rehab assignment following offseason wrist surgery, but La Russa said hed experienced persistent pain and swelling since spring training.
La Rusa also said Wilson has had arthritis in the knee for several seasons. The team felt that Wilson would need probably three weeks of rest and rehab.
"The doctors feel like he should get off of it for a couple of weeks and hopefully get it right," La Russa said.
"He's getting better, but if he's not ready we don't need him to come up here and struggle," La Russa said. "It takes a while to get your stroke."
'97. The 28-year-old Ryan Ludwick is in the majors for the first time since 2005.
La Russia said Encarnacion, who was batting .146 with two RBI in 41 at bats, needs more time.
Ludwick's brother, pitcher Eric Ludwick, played for the Cardinals in 1996-97 and was sent to Oakland in the deal for Mark McGwire in
"A lot of people could have given up," Ludwick said. "I didn't give up, I've been swinging the bat pretty well down there and I want to carry it
"He's playing well and that spot is open. He's excited, ready to go, so let him go."

for a 15.00 ERA
Dove had been a short-term call up, holding a spot for Chris Carpenter. Carpenter, whose elbow failed to respond to a rehab program and rest, will undergo surgery on Tuesday to shave bone spurs and will be sidelined three months.
The Cardinals optioned reliever Dennis Dove, who allowed a grand slam in Saturday's 13-0 loss to the Astros. In three games Dove allowed two homers and five earned runs in three innings
Right-handed reliever Brad Thompson will fill Carpenter's spot in the rotation on Tuesday.
Golfer wins playoff for first victory of this year
BROKEN ARROW, Okla.
— Mi Hyun Kim won a playoff on the first extra hole with Hall of Famer Juli Inkster to capture the SemGroup Championship on Sunday, the South Korean's first LPGA Tour victory of the year.
BY MURRAY EVANS ASSOCIATED PRESS
Kim missed a 5-footer for par on the 18th to force the playoff with Inkster, who had birdied the hole minutes earlier. On her second try at No. 18 in the playoff, Kim sank a 4-foot putt for par after Inkster made bogey.
Kim started the round one shot behind the leaders and won for the eight time on the tour. Inkster, who will turn 47 next month, would have been the oldest player to win an LPGA Tour event. She closed with a 2-under 69 in regulation.

Kim, who shot a 71, and Inkster finished regulation one shot ahead of Ai Miyazoto and Angela Stanford. Three others were at 1 under, including Lorena Ochoa and Stephanie Louden, who began the day in a four-way tie for first.
Kim, whose last tour victory in 2006 came after a three-hole playoff with Natalie Gulbis in the Jamie Farr Owens Corning Classic, hit her second shot in the playoff to the fringe on the back of the green, about 35 feet from the hole, and two-putted.
Six players held the lead at some point on a cloudy, humid day. The par-71 Cedar Ridge Country Club course was soggy from storms that hit Oklahoma the past week.
Inkster's second shot sailed over the green. She chipped 8 feet past the hole but missed the par putt right.
Moments after Inkster had bogeyed No. 17 to fall out of the lead, Kim curled in a breaking 15-foot birdie putt at No. 16 to take a two-shot edge. Inkster hit a 6-foot
Kim hit her tee shot into the rough on the par-4 17th, but salvaged par, knocking a 5-foot putt into the center of the hole. On the 18th, her tee shot landed in the middle of the fairway but she hit into a greenside bunker and two扑uted for bogey.
The round started with four co-leaders — Nicole Castrale, Reilley Rankin, Louden and Karin Sjiodn — and none having won on the tour. One by one, they all fell back.
Castrale, who led after the opening round, was still at 4 under through five holes, but bogeyed four of the next eight. Louden had four bogeys in her first six holes.
Sjdin's drive went into the deep rough and rolled into a ravine to the right of the fairway. Instead of trying to punch out, she tried an approach shot to the green that caromed off a tree at a 90-degree angle. Her ball ended up in tall grass by a tree adjacent to the 12th fairway, and she kicked her golf bag after seeing where her ball landed.
After taking a drop about 20 yards behind where her ball landed, she reached the green with her next shot, but three-putted from 70 feet for a triple bopge.
Sjodin, who played collegiately at nearby Oklahoma State, was tied with Inkster for the lead after a 3-foot birdie put on No. 6, but big trouble followed on the 405-yard, par-4 eighth hole.
Inkster birdied the first two holes, chipped in for par at No. 4 and took the lead with a birdie on No. 6. She held at least a share of it until the bogey at No. 17.
Tour officials moved up Sunday's tee times by two hours and used threesomes instead of twosomes in a successful effort to avoid weather problems.

No. 4 UTAH JAZZ (51-31,
4-2) vs. No. 8 GOLDEN STATE
WARRIORS (42-40, 4-2)
A look at the Utah-Golden State matchup in the second round of the NBA playoffs, which begins Monday:
Season Series: Tied, 2-2, though two meetings came back in November, long before the Warriors remade their team and their style in their trade with Indiana. Stephen Jackson averaged 22 points in the two games he played for Golden State. Carlos Boozer had three double-doubles for Utah, including a 25-point, 21-rebound game in one Jazz victory, but was held to four points and 10 boards in a loss.
Storyline: After knocking off the Dallas Mavericks, who had the league's best record, in perhaps the biggest upset in NBA playoff history, the eighth-seeded Warriors move on to face the Northwest Division champions, who are in the second round for the first time since 2000.
Key matchup: Deron Williams vs. Baron Davis. Williams, who nearly made the All-Star team, will have a chance to make the U.S. national team, and had 20 points and 14 assists in Utah's Game 7 victory against Houston. Davis has been perhaps the best all-around player in the playoff while scoring 25 points per game.
X-factor: Al Hartington. Shot only 26 percent in the first round. But he scored 27 points in one game and had 15 points and 11 boards in the other against Utah after Golden State acquired him.

Win one year,fail to qualify the next

After nearly four hours of baseball Saturday afternoon, Kansas dropped its second-straight game to Kansas State, conceding the series to the Wildcats and falling into last place in the Big 12.
BY SHAWN SHROYER
KANSAN SPORTS COLUMNIST
SSHROYER@KANSAN.COM
With one conference series remaining, it looks as though Kansas will become the first Big 12 team to win the Big 12 Tournament one season but fail to qualify for the tournament the next. It appears that Kansas' youth will prevent it from reaching the Big 12 Tournament.
Last season, Kansas earned its best records since 1993 behind the leadership of seven seniors. The defining moment of the season for those seniors was their response
to being swept by Texas late in the season.
Following the sweep, Kansas won seven games in a row, going 9-2 and solidifying a spot in the conference tournament. The Jayhawks eventually won the conference tournament and reached the NCAA tournament.
Kansas found itself in a similar predicament this weekend.
The Jayhawks entered the weekend tied for eighth in the conference behind seventh-place Kansas
State. Considering Kansas State has never been a factor in the Big 12, having gone without a conference tournament appearance since 2002, a series victory — if not a sweep
— looked possible for Kansas. A victory might have catapulted the Jayhawks as high as sixth in the conference.
However, a reenactment of last year's seniors proved to be too much for a Kansas squad composed of nine young players who regularly start.
On Friday, sophomore left- hander Andy Marks allowed only one hit in seven innings but his fellow underclassmen didn't offer him much support.
Sophomore catcher Buck Afenir went 0-for-4 with two strikeouts while sophomore first baseman Preston Land went 0-for-3 with three strikeouts. Lands' struggles
spilled onto the field in the bottom of the eighth when sophomore right-hander Paul Smyth came in for Marks.
After Smyth surrendered the tying run and loaded the bases, Land committed a fielding error with two outs allowing Kansas State to pull ahead for good.
Kansas got more of the same from its younger contributors on Saturday.
Sophomore left-hander Nick Czyz started for the Jayhawks, but didn't last long. In just 2/3 of an inning of work, Czyz was charged with four runs, putting Kansas in a hole.
With Kansas trailing 5-4 in the seventh, coach Ritch Price went to Smyth to keep the game within reach for the lajayhawks, but Smyth gave up two runs in the eighth.
At the plate, freshman third baseman Robby Price went 0-for-4 and Land's toils continued as he went 0-for-2, dropping his batting average on the season to .200.
One strength coach Price found in his young players is that they don't dwell on their failures. Instead, they look forward to their next opportunity to succeed.
"They play every day and they're almost oblivious to that kind of thing." Price said on Friday. "More experienced teams do have a tough time recovering after they give one away they had a chance to win. These guys don't play like that. They're not mature enough or experienced enough yet to let that kind of thing bother them.

In the fifth, the Jayhawks looked to be reclaiming the momentum swing, chasing Hurley from the game. Senior center fielder Kyle Murphy doubled down the left field line to kick things off and scored by way of a Morrison RBI single, bringing Kansas within one.
in-state rivals put on Saturday afternoon for the hometown crowd and the nationwide Fox Sports Net viewers.
Junior right fielder Brock Simpson beat out an infield hit and stole second to put him in position to score on a pair of Wildcat mishaps in the bottom of the fourth.
K-State jumped out to a 4-0 lead in the 31-minute first frame before Kansas countered with a little first inning offense of its own.
Sophomore lefty Nick Czyz (3-7) failed to finish the first inning for the first time this season. Czyz recorded only two outs before being lifted for junior Zach Ashwood. In less than an inning of work, Czyz surrendered four runs on two hits and two walks, throwing more balls than strikes in the outing.
"This team battles." Afenir said. "We're not afraid of being down a few runs."
"I was actually really pleased that we had just an awful first inning, I don't know if it was the jitters of being on TV for some of the younger guys for the first time — obviously Nick really struggled," Price said. "But to come right back and score two gave us a chance to get back in the baseball game."
An error in the third allowed K-State to stretch its lead to 5-2. Again, Kansas countered.

"If you're going to walk as many guys as we did, and hit guys to set the table — I was pleased with the fact that we were down one in the seventh with the chance to tie, because it seemed like we were in trouble every single inning." Price said.
with a single to left. Junior Erik Morrison did the same and sophomore catcher Buck Afenir scored them both with a double to the right field wall.
What started as a quick inning for Wildcat starter Trevor Hurley ended with the Jayhawks cutting their deficit in half. Junior left fielder John Allman got the two-out rally started
game recaps
The eighth was too much for Kansas to counter. Despite leaving 10 less runners on than KState, Kansas collected just one base runner on one hit in the eighth and ninth innings combined.
"It's tough to stay positive and stay confident all the time," Afenir said. "Coach Price keeps us in it, we try to keep it as positive and stay as confident as we can—just look to the next day."
Shortstop Eli Rumler followed with a sharp ground ball past the diving glove of junior second baseman Ryne Price to plate both and once again extend the lead 7-4.

KANSAS STATE 2, KANSAS 1
A stellar effort by sophomore left-hander Andy Marks went to waste Friday night as the Kansas offense mustered just one run.
Marks started for the Jayhawks and pitched seven shutout innings, striking out four and allowing only one hit and four walks. However, the Jayhawk bats collected only six hits the entire game, two of which from Junior designated hitter Casey Larson, which translated to their first run in their last three Friday games.

Calvin Borel riding Street Sense reacts after winning the 133rd Kentucky Derby at Churchill Downs in Louisville, Ky., Saturday. Trainers refused to speculate on a sweep of the Triple Crown.
Street Sense wins first leg of Triple Crown
BY BETH HARRIS ASSOCIATED PRESS
LOUISVILLE, Ky. — Trainer Carl Nafziger was chatting up well-wishers at his barn, with Kentucky Derby winner Street Sense tucked safely away after his morning workout.
The winner's garland of red roses was stashed out of sight, making Sunday feel like any other morning at Churchill Downs.
Except Nafzger was busy quieting Triple Crown talk about 14 hours after Street Sense's 2 1/4-length victory.
And the 65-year-old trainer wasn't much for discussing the Preakness that looms in two weeks, either.
"That's not even on the radar now," he said. "Ask me next Monday. Make an appointment."
Street Sense will be in Baltimore on May 19 for the second leg of the Triple Crown. Six times in the last 10 years the Derby winner has gone
on to win the Preakness, setting up a Triple try.
Although initially resistant, Nafzger briefly let his mind wander to a possible sweep of the Derby, Preakness and Belmont.
"As soon as we win the Preakness, we'll go to the Belmont," he said, smiling.
Street Sense will stay at Churchill Downs and train on his home track leading to the Preakness. Nafziger plans to bring the colt to Pimlico three days before the race.
Nafzger has previously saddled two Preakness starters, including second-place Unbridled in 1990. That colt gave Nafzger his first Derby victory.
Hard Spun, the second-place Derby finisher, will challenge Street Sense in the 1 3-16-mile Preakness. Other possible holdovers from the Derby are third place Curlin, fifth-place Sedgefield and Teuflesberg, who finished 17th.
With Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip looking on Saturday, Street Sense picked his way through traffic and roared from 19th place in the 20-horse Derby field to win with powerful acceleration.
"I knew if the horse kicked, hed get there," Nafzger said. "He was long back in the Breeders' Cup, too."
Street Sense won the Breeders' Cup Juvenile six months ago at Churchill, coming from 13th place to win by 10 lengths.
"I've seen him six and 12 lengths off the pace," Nafzger said. "Whatever sets up, that's what I've seen him do."
Street Sense became the first Juvenile winner to come back in the spring and win the roses, ending an 0-for-23 linx.
He also was the first 2-year-old champion to win the Derby since Spectacular Bid in 1979 and the first colt to win with two or fewer prep races since Sunny's Halo in 1983.
"Maybe two preps is what's needed," Nazfager said.
Outside his barn, trainer Larry Jones held Hard Spun as the colt had his feet washed off.
Then they walked a few laps around the barn before Hard Spun went into his stall.
"I'm just so happy I didn't screw it all up," fones said jokingly.
Hard Spun led all the way until Street Sense had taken care of most of the field in the final quarter-mile. Hard Spun came into the Derby on a six-week layoff — one more week than Barbaro had been idled before winning last year.
"We were told we couldn't do it," Jones said, pointing out that Curlin was criticized for having just three career starts and none as a 2-year-old.
"We all got to the races the best way we could," Jones said. "Everyone marched to the beat of their own drum."
Rookie Red helps snap losing streak
MLB
BY JOE KAY
ASSOCIATED PRESS
Homers, fielding highlight comeback plays
CINCINNATI — Add two more homers and two more ovations to Josh Hamilton's inspiring comeback story.
"You can't help but feel good about it," Hamilton said.
Hamilton completed his sensational series with a pair of homers on Sunday, and the Cincinnati Reds snapped their four-game losing streak with a 9-3 victory over the Colorado Rockies.
Even those who can't figure out how to get him out come away feeling good about what they're seeing from the 25-year-old outfielder.
"He's as good a rookie as there is right now," said Josh Fogg, who gave up Hamilton's first homer. "He had a good series, put some good swings on some good pitches, hit the ball hard all series long.
"It's good to see a guy who has battled through adversity and been able to come back and do that — I wish it wasn't against us. But it's good to see a guy that's been able to turn his life around like that."
The NI's rookie of the month for April did it all during the middle game of the series — two singles, a double, a triple, a stolen base and a diving catch in the Rockies' 9-7 win on Saturday night. All he needed for the cycle was a how.
His two-run shot off Fogg (1-3) put Cincinnati in position to salvage the final game of the series. Hamilton's solo drive off reliever Alberto Arias in his next at-bat drew the latest ovation in his comeback from years of drug abuse.
That came a day later.
Hamilton stood on a riser in the dugout and raised his batting helmet to acknowledge the crowd of 27,915, which wouldn't stop paulding until he took a curtain call after his eighth homer.
"An awesome feeling," Hamilton said. "A lot of people don't get that
experience. Just to be back here is a blessing."
The crowd was on its feet again after his over-the-shoulder catch robbed Brad Hawpe in center field in the eighth. Hamilton also threw out speedy Willy Taveras, who was trying to go from first to third on a single.
"A week ago, some people were saying that the league was catching up to him, but I guess not," manager Jerry Narron said. "It's amazing to see him out there doing what he's doing.
"He can be as good as anybody in this game. He's a special talent."
Right-hander Bronson Arroyo (2-2) got his first career victory over the Rockies with a performance of extremes. He shut out Colorado on two hits for the first five innings, then needed 48 pitches to get a pair of outs before leaving in the sixth.
Todd Helton fouled off four two-strike pitches before hitting a single to left field with the bases loaded in the sixth, cutting it to 5-2.
Reliever Kirk Saarloos walked pinch-hitter John Mabry to force in another run.
"I didn't have anything to start the game with," Arroyo said. "Those 48 pitches took a lot out of me. Helton's at-bat really killed me."
The NLs worst bullpen held on.
David Weathers pitched out of a threat in the eighth to preserve the lead and got four outs in all for his sixth save in seven chances Cincinnati's first save since April 15.
Alex Gonzalez and Ryan Freel also homered for Cincinnati, Freel, back in the leadoff spot, also tripled and walked twice, scoring three runs.
Fogg had an uncharacteristically poor showing at Great American Ball Park, where he was 4-1 with a 3.63 ERA in seven previous starts.

Jazz silence Rocket's home crowd, move on to round two
BY CHRIS DUNCAN ASSOCIATED PRESS
HOUSTON — Tracy McGrady leaned over in front of his bench as time ran out, his hands on his knees as he absorbed one more playoff failure.
The young Utah Jazz, meanwhile, embraced one another and quietly celebrated after a 103-99 win over the Houston Rockets on Saturday night that gave them their first playoff series victory since the days of John Stockton and Karl Malone.
Carlos Boozer had 35 points, 14 rebounds and five assists in Game
7 for the Jazz, who became only the seventh team since 2001 to come back from a 2-0 deficit and win a series. They're also just the 19th visiting team to win in 97 Game 7s in playoff history.
McGrady had 29 points and 13 assists, but the seven-time AllStar fell to 0-6 in the playoffs. The Rockets — his Rockets — blew a 2-0 lead for the second time in three seasons. They won twice in Dallas in 2005, then dropped the series in seven games.
The home team had won the previous six games in this series, but all the games at the Toyota Center had
gone down to the wire.
This game was the closest one of all.
This time, Boozer and the Jazz came up with the plays to finally break through.
Deron Williams had 20 points and 14 assists and Mehmet Okur scored 16 and grabbed 11 rebounds to lead Utah, which is in the playoffs for the first time since 2003.
Boozer grabbed two key offensive rebounds in the final 90 seconds, then hit two free throws with 19.9 seconds left to seal the victory and silence the capacity crowd in Houston for the last time.

Detroit 19 Only at Circle K
Dick Whipple/ASSOCIATED PRESS
Kansas City Royals' Mark Grudzielanek, right, can't get to second in time to break up the throw by Detroit Tigers' shortstop Carlos Guillen, who completed a double play in the fourth inning of Sunday's game in Kansas City, Mo. Detroit won 13-4.
Tigers find luck at Kauffman
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Maybe it's Kansas City's juicy barbecue ribs that bring out the best in the Detroit Tigers. Or maybe it's the fact the Tigers are very good these days and the perpetually rebuilding Royals are losing 100 games a year.
BY DOUG TUCKER ASSOCIATED PRESS
For whatever reason, the Tigers are almost unbeatable when they set foot in Kauffman Stadium.
Craig Monroe, Curtis Granderson and Gary Sheffield hit two-run homers in the second inning Sunday and Detroit beat the Royals 13-4 for its seventh straight victory overall and 14th victory in its last 15 games in the Royals' home park.
"All the games we win are not in this park," said Ivan Rodriguez, who had two singles as the Tigers finished with a season-high 17 hits. "We've been winning in other parks, too. We play the game hard every day."
Monroe and Neifi Perez, who also homered, had four RBIs and himerson drove in three runs. The Tigers, who haven't lost since April 28, outscored the Royals 26-12 in sweeping the three-game series.
"We swung the bats obviously very well," manager Jim Leyland said. "We're swinging pretty good."
The defending AL champions had
"We come out and prepare to win every day." Monroe said. "We know how to prepare. The attitude on this team is we're going to accomplish the things we're trying to accomplish."
six doubles, a triple and four homers in their latest win.
Chad Durbin (2-1) gave up two runs and six hits in 7 2-3 innings, with three strikeouts and no walks. He cruised into the eighth with a two-hit shutout but the Royals loaded the bases with three singles and scored a run on Shane Costa's double-play grounder, Tony Pena Jr, then chased Durbin with an RBI double.
Right-hander Aquilino Lopez, who was called up Saturday night after Joel Zumaya went on the disabled list with a strained right middle finger, came in and got Bill Butler to fly out to end the inning.
Zack Greinke (1-4) allowed six runs and nine hits in four innings. In his previous outing against the Tigers on April 16, he failed to get out of the first inning, allowing three hits and four runs on Rodriguez's grand slam.
"Greinke, the last two times we caught him, we caught him on days he wasn't very good. But he's got outstanding stuff," Leyland said.
Greinke kept getting behind hitters all day and said he was not surprised to see the home runs start
flying over the fence.
"No, because I pitched bad enough and they were hitting it hard enough," he said. "I gave them too many pitches up and over the plate. I wasn't getting them off balance and I wasn't getting them hit pitchers' pitches. There was no rhythm and I never got into a groove at all."
The home runs in the second inning by Granderson, Sheffield and Monroe gave Durbin a 6-0 lead to work with.
Then the Tigers added three in the sixth on RBI doubles by Monroe and Perez and Granderson's RBI single.
Monroe's run-scoring single ignited a four-run seventh for the Tigers. After Brandon Inge's double made it 11-0, Perez hit his first home run of the year.
The Tigers said after the game that Zumaya would see a hand specialist in New York on Monday and only then would they know the extent of his injury.
Zumaya heard a "pop" while warming up in the bullpen Saturday night. He had a thick bandage on the finger Sunday and described the sensation as a "shocking pain."
"It's hurting now. It hurts, and that's it," he said. "And it's swollen."
Detroit's only loss in Kansas City since 2005 was a 3-1 setback on April 6.

Spurs win bloody match-up
ASSOCIATED PRESS
BY BOB BAUM
PHOENIX — The San Antonio Spurs left the Phoenix Suns bloodied and beaten in Game 1 of the Western Conference semifinals.
Tim Duncan had 33 points and 16 rebounds — eight offensive — and Tony Parker added 32 points and led the Spurs to a rough-and-tumble 111-106 victory on Sunday.
Steve Nash scored 31 for Phoenix but missed a crucial 45 seconds in the final minute because of a bloody cut on his nose, the result of a head-on collision with Parker with 2:53 to play. The cut required six stitches after the game.
NBA
Michael Finley added 19 points for San Antonio, which with the victory has home-court advantage the rest of the series.
Amare Stoudemire had 20 points and 18 rebounds but was just 6-for-19 shooting. Leandro Barbosa scored 18 points for the Suns. Shawn Marion, after a slow start, scored 16, 11 in the final quarter.
After Parker stole Nash's pass, the two collided to-head in the San Antonio backcourt. Parker fell to the floor and Nash walked away bleeding.
Game 2 is Tuesday night in Phoenix.
Matt York/ASSOCIATED PRESS
Phoenix Suns guard Steve Nash has his nose attended to by the team trainer after running into San Antonio Spurs' Tony Parker during the fourth quarter of a NBA Western Conference semifinal round playoff basketball game in Phoenix Sunday. The Spurs won 111-106.
Nash made a three-pointer and tied it at 102 with 2:25 to play, then Duncan gave the Spurs the lead for good with a 10-foot baseline hook shot. Nash missed a three-point shot, then Parker sank a 23-footer, putting San Antonio ahead 106-102 with 1:23 remaining.
Nash's driving layup with 1:13 left cut it to 106-104 1:13 from the finish, and Raja Bell drew an offensive foul on Parker to give Phoenix the ball. But Nash had to come out with 54.8 seconds to go because of blood oozing around the bandage.
Nash returned with 9.1 seconds to go, but by then San Antonio led 110-106.
After Nash's departure, Barbosa missed a three-pointer that would have given Phoenix the lead. Manu Ginobill made one of two free throws to make it 107-104 with 32.8 seconds to play, then Stoudemire's two free throws sliced the lead to 107-106 with 26.7 seconds to go.
After a San Antonio time-out, Barbosa was called for a foul before the ball was thrown inbounds. That meant Finley got a free throw, and made it, and San Antonio kept possession.
The Spurs were 5-for-9 at the foul line down the stretch.

Sabres aim for Stanley Cup
BY IRA PODELL
ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK—Chris Drury and the Buffalo Sabres waited a year to get back to the Eastern Conference finals.
After vanquishing the other two New York teams, the Sabres are one round from a shot at the very elusive Stanley Cup.
Drury had a goal and assist in the Sabres' four-goal second period that erased an early deficit and sent Buffalo to a 5-4 victory Sunday against the Rangers in Game 6. Dmitri Kalinin, Jason Pominville and Jochen Hecht joined Drury in the offensive onslaught that lasted 9:46.
Michael Nylander gave New York a 1-0 advantage in the first period, Paul Mara tied it in the second, and Jaromir Jagr scored his 72nd career goal in the third to bring the Rangers within 4-3.
It was the jolt the Sabres needed to get Lundqvist off his game and send them into a full press. Buffalo outshot New York 11-8 in the first period, but the margin was much larger before Nylander broke through with 2:50 left in the period.
Drury and the Sabres now can erase last year's bitter memories of losing Game 7 at Carolina with a trip to the Stanley Cup finals on the line. Buffalo will have home-ice advantage this time when they face Northeast Division-rival Ottawa next.
Drury again led the Sabres, who eliminated the Islanders in the first round and are shooting for their first Cup title after posting the league's best regular-season record. He tied Game 5 by scoring with 7.7 seconds left in regulation to keep the Rangers from a third straight win that would've given New York a chance to end the series the other way on home ice.
Hecht tipped in his second of the game — and the playoffs — with 5:10 left. Daniel Briere, co-captain with Drury, had three assists. Nylander added his second of the game with the Rangers' third power-play goal
New York's lead was lost quickly when Kalinini tied it at 1:29 of the second. Kalinini took a pass from Ales Kotalik at the left point and wound up for a shot as New York
forward Nigel Dawes dived in front to block the puck.
to make it 5-4 with 2:59 remaining. It just wasn't enough against the NHL's highest-scoring team, Ryan Miller made 32 saves for the Sabres. Henrik Lundqvist stopped 24 shots in the net for New York, which dropped its first home game in the playoffs (4-1).
The Rangers rookie, a surprise addition to the lineup Sunday, got a piece of it but it was just enough to change the flight and send it knuckling past Lundgvist to make it 1-1.
That was forgotten when Pominville gave the Sabres their first regulation lead since midway through the third period of Game 2. Again a deflection proved costly to the Rangers as Pominville's shot hit defenseman Karel Rachunek before darting past Lundqvist at 2:53.
But Mara restored the faith into a suddenly nervous Madison Square Garden crowd when he fired a shot in from above the right circle to tie it at 2, just 1:14 after the Rangers fell behind. The goal came on New York's first power play of the game that produced after going 0-for-7 in Game 5.

Bad boy beats golden boy
Mayweather's surprise win against De La Hoya disappoints crowd
BY TIM DAHLBERG ASSOCIATED PRESS
LASVEGAS — Floyd Mayweather Jr. couldn't win over the crowd, or even his own father. All he could win was the only thing that really counted Saturday night, his fight against Oscar De La Hoya.
Boxing's bad boy beat the Golden Boy in one of the richest fights ever, using his superb defensive skills and superior speed to take a 12-round split decision and win the WBC 154-pound title in his first fight at that weight.
He didn't impress the pro-De La Hoya crowd that roared with every punch thrown by their hero, and even Floyd Mayweather Sr. thought his son had lost. But Mayweather landed the harder punches and landed them more often, and that was enough to eke out yet another win.
Both proud champions fought from the opening bell to the end of the final round, which finished with the brawl De La Hoya wanted all
"It was easy work for me. He was rough and tough, but he couldn't beat the best," Mayweather said. "I was having fun in there. It was a hell of a fight."
The fight that was supposed to save the sport may not have done that, but it was entertaining enough and competitive enough to keep everyone's attention even though neither fighter seemed to hurt the other and neither went down.
along. But it came too late to help De La Hoya, who lost four of the last five rounds on two scorecards, sealing his fate.
"I could see I was hurting him," De La Hoya said. "I was pressing the fight, and if I hadn't pressed the fight there would be no fight. I'm a champion, and you have to do more than that to beat a champion."

"My son had good defense and caught a lot of punches,but I still thought Oscar pressed enough to win the fight.
"I thought Oscar won the fight on points, threw more punches and was more aggressive," said the senior Mayweather, who munched popcorn as he watched the fight from a $2,000 ringside seat given to him by De La Hoya.

"I just fought the best fighter in our era and I beat him," Mayweather said.
The sellout crowd of 16,200 that paid a record $19 million gate didn't think so, booing the decision just as it had boooed Mayweather when he came into the ring wearing a sombrero on Cinco de Mayo.
But many more missed than landed, allowing Mayweather to dance away, often after countering with a punch or two of his own.

Mayweather was favored 116-112 by judge Chuck Giampa and 115-113 by judge Jerry Roth. Judge Tom Kaczmarek had De La Hoya ahead 115-113. The Associated Press had Mayweather winning 116-112.
Because this was boxing, the fight didn't end without some controversy. De La Hoya's corner said it might protest the decision after noticing that the scorecards circulated at ringside had the fighters in the wrong color corners, but the director of the Nevada Athletic Commission said they were correct.

>> BOARDWALK TRIAL
Rose changes his story about fire Defendant denies video confession
BY ERICK R. SCHMIDT
"I thought if it was something they would believe, they would leave me alone." Rose said.
Jason Allen Rose told the jury Monday that his 10-hour taped interrogation and confession was full of lies.
The version of the story Rose shared Monday was different from the one he told investigators in the days following the Boardwalk Apartments fire, which killed three people.
McGowan moved quickly through a list of confessions Rose had made on the tape, asking him to say which were truth and which were lies. The questioning moved at a rapid pace, with Rose answering quickly with "truth" or "lie" statements. Rose was asked about a series of reported incidents he had been accused of while growing up in group homes.
During the taped interrogation, Rose routinely changed details in his version of what happened that night. There had originally been a character named "Stan" who Rose said tried to sell him marijuana; Rose said he had been in the walkway multiple times before the fire; he said he set on fire a box of photographs his father had sent him. Monday, Rose told assistant district attorney Amy McGowan that those were all lies.
"You said, 'I have a problem with fires,' Jason," McGowan said. "True, or a lie?"
"That was a lie." Rose said.
Rose is accused of starting the October2005 Boardwalk Apartments fire, which killed residents Jose Gonzalez, Helen "Yolanda" Riddle and KU student Nicole Bingham. Rose is charged with aggravated arson, three counts of murder and seven counts of aggravated battery. The case originally went to trial in February but was declared a mistrial because of a late-surfacing witness. That witness, 21-year-old Emily Robinson, also took the stand in the trial's morning session.
Rose was called to the stand by his attorney, Ron Evans, and answered questions for just more than half an hour. Rose told Evans he did not think he was a suspect when the police came to talk to him at work, when he was taken to a police unit for questioning. Evans asked Rose a closing question.
"Finally, look at this jury. Did you set this fire?" Evans asked.
Rose was allowed to step off the stand just before 3 p.m. Monday and court was adjourned. Evans apologized to Judge Jack A. Murphy because he had not prepared for Rose's testimony to end so early. Evans had no more witnesses prepared.
"No." Rose said.
"I've got a bunch subpoenaed for Tuesday, your honor, but I wasn't expecting this."
Monday was the sixth day of the trial. Court will resume at 9 a.m. today.

Mary Chappell, director of recreation services, said the synthetic courts allow students to do things inside they can't do now. The synthetic courts allow for students to play indoor hockey or soccer.
The expansion also includes an extension to the indoor track, making it one-fourth mile around. Two additional raquetball courts will
be added, along with an expanded free weight area.
Chappell said the expanded free weight area would take over the current martial arts studio. The new martial arts studio would be added near the new courts.
The recreation center will also feature a Full Swing golf course on the upstairs floor. The virtual golf allows students to choose what course to play.
Chappell said the transition during the expansion would be seamless.
The recreation center will remain open during the construction.
Money to fund the expansion came from the sale of seats in Allen Fieldhouse by the Athletics Department.

ODD NEWS Elevator vandals caught at scene of crime
And the elevator at the Lilestream Train Station, north of Oslo, appeared to be the vengeful sort, sealing its doors and holding the two for the police.
OSLO, Norway — Two young Norwegian vandals overlooked a small but crucial detail when they started smashing up a train station elevator: They were inside it.
"Vandalism is always sad, but a lot of people do see the humor in this," Ellen Svendsvoll, of the National Rail Administration. said Monday.
The two vandals went into
the elevator, waited for the doors to close, and started to kick them, she said.
They kicked so hard that the doors jammed, and the elevator stopped, sending an alarm to security guards. The guards tried to lower the elevator, which only jammed the doors more, so they called the police and fire department.
The firemen freed the two suspects, while the police waited outside.
"Talk about being caught in the act," said Svendsvoll. "I've never heard of anyone being trapped by the elevator they were vandalizing. I don't know what they were thinking."

Thieves advertise guilt outside Wal-Mart
Attalla city Judge Kenneth Robertson Jr. ordered the two people to wear the signs for four hours each during two successive Saturdays.
ATTALLA, Ala. — Shoppers entering the Wal-Mart Supercenter got a reminder not to try anything funny: Two shoplifters stood outside with signs reading "I am a thief, I stole from Wal-Mart."
"The only comments we've heard so far have been positive," said store manager Neil Hawkins.
One of the shoplifters, Lisa King Fithian, 46, wore the sign to avoid a 60-day jail sentence.
Fithian said her conviction was based on a misunderstanding: She said she was taking a $7 item to the service desk because it would not scan.
She said people who saw her wearing the sandwich board commented that the punishment was "cruel."

We've been able to extend it into a more serious athletic endeavor while still sticking to the reason that we're here, which is to have a good time."
The team hired a coach for the first time three years ago, which Nickels said made a huge difference. Until them, the team relied on captains to double as players and coaches.
Shawn Dubbs, coach of Horrorzontals, also helped the team manage the loss of its two best players to graduation.

Nationals will be the team's seventh tournament this year. Wimer said most tournaments consisted of competition Saturday and Sunday with the host team throwing a party on Saturday night for the teams to socialize. At nationals, the competition is intensified.
"It's a whole different atmosphere from anything you see the rest of the year," Wimer said. "This is when teams pull out their A-game."
This year, the Horrorzontals have already played Texas and Colorado, two of the favorites to win the national championship. They lost to Texas at regionals but defeated Colorado at another tournament.
Seeds for the tournament haven't been released, but the three captains agreed they'd like to a chance to upset Colorado again.
"I'm ready to take it to them." Nickels said.
If the Horrorontals win their pool, they'll receive a bye in the first round of the tournament, placing them directly in the quarterfinals. A second or third place finish in their pool would still advance them, but they would have to win one additional game to get to the quarterfinals.

The students won $3,000 from the competition, which Spires said would be used in going forward with the business.
After Abacus approaches investors such as venture capitalists and gains financial support, the next step is getting property, computers, servers and programmers to build new financial fields for the program. Spires said.

>> WALKING DOWN THE HILL
Few students graduate in four years
Just more than 30 percent of University students finished "on time" in 2005
BY ELIZABETH CATTELL
Michael Bretches is one of many students who will walk down the hill on May 20, but he is in the minority of students who will graduate from the University of Kansas after only four years.
In 2005, just more than 30 percent of KU students graduated in four years, according to College Results Online, collegeresults.org. About 54 percent graduated in five years and about 59 percent graduated in six years. These rankings placed the University twelfth of 15 similar institutions according to factors like size.
In the spring of 2005, administrators formed the Graduate in Four Task Force to evaluate how the University could improve graduation rates. Marlesa Roney, vice provost for student success, said the task force implemented several changes that fall to encourage a four-year graduation plan.
"Overall, college is a small portion of anyone's life. But, it also needs to be part of an ordered plan."
"There have been changes in practice, such as presenting a strong and clear message that graduating in four years is an expected, possible and good thing." Roney said.
But Bretches, Futchinson senior, said graduating in four years wasn't easy.
He never took fewer than 15 hours a semester. Once he enrolled in 19 hours, a choice he admitted was a mistake.
"You wouldn't imagine how much difference that extra test a month makes," Bretches said. "It changed how I was involved in different activities. I didn't debate as competitively because I couldn't fit it in."
Bretches, an accounting major,
said working 20 hours a week
added to the difficulty of his semesters.
During the week he was at
class or work from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.
every day.
DIANN BURRIGHT
Associate director of the FSAC
Tom Krieshok, professor of psychology, said he understood the importance of graduating in a timely manner, but he thought a four-year plan was not the best fit for all students.
"If you want to graduate in four, you better know what you're doing." Bretches said
Exploring interests
While Bretches said he was happy with his experience at the University, he wished he had more time to take some extra courses. He said it was hard for students to discover subjects of interest quickly enough to graduate in four years.
"Some students can pick a major and have the personality style that allows them to explore and check out things as they're getting their degree. People who are really focused like that can graduate in four years," Krieshok said.
However, Krieshok said most students don't develop deep interests until later in life. They may find it hard to select a major if they feel like the clock is ticking.
"I'm antagonistic to the
part that says everybody can get this figured out in four years. If we're saying to people that you're only healthy or competent if you do it in four years, I think there's a problem with that," Krieshok said.
Roney said that while the task force wanted students to explore their interests, a stronger message was needed to motivate students.
"What we were realizing is that instead of our primary message being 'Live life fully in four years and graduate', it was, 'Hey, take as long as you want,' Roney said. "There's no reason why the vast majority of students can't graduate in four."
Most degree programs were designed to be completed in four years. Roney said if students made being a student their top priority, four years should allow plenty of time for exploration.
While it is important for students to focus on their studies, Krieshok said students should engage themselves in extracurricular activities to broaden their experiences and skills. He said graduating in four years was possible, but probably harder for students who got involved outside their schoolwork.
"The issue isn't really so much
four or five years, the issue is what you're doing in school," Krieshok said. "If you're just being a bookworm it doesn't matter to me if it takes you four years or five years. I think you're in trouble."
Steps to success
Diann Burright, associate director of the Freshmen Sophomore Advising Center, said a four-year plan could help students focus their interests, allowing them to achieve more during their time at the University.
"In order to graduate in four years you need to find the path you want to follow first. Be engaged in what you're doing and before you know it you'll graduate, and it's probably have happened in four years." Burright said.
The advising center supports the four-year policy by encouraging students to enroll in at least 15 hours each semester. Students are also required to declare a major by the time they've completed 60 hours.
Students should be aware of requirements for their major and degree program. Burright said students could stay on track while taking classes outside their major, or studying abroad as long as they planned ahead.
"Overall, college is a small portion of anyone's life. But, it also needs to be part of an ordered plan." Burright said.
Burring said the Task Force's message put pressure on students
in a positive way. "I don't feel like it's a big club that's being swung at students." Burright said. "It's an encouragement of being responsive and to come to college and take ownership of what happens to you"
to do more than they were ready for.
"Taking responsibility for your own education can be daunting if you don't know what you're doing." Lawrence said. Lawrence said she could have graduated in four years, even after changing her major to psychology and studying abroad for a semester, but chose not to.
Some students feel that the "graduate in four" message is restrictive.
"I'm paying for my own education, so I'm going to take as long as I want," Lawrence said.
She said she was looking forward to an extra year.
"I recently discovered what I want to do. Now I know what the next step is and I need another year to make those things happen," Lawrence said. "I've met and helped a lot of people in my time here and now I have one more year to focus on myself."
The task force's efforts are showing early. A report in the spring of 2006 showed the average course load for full-time freshmen in their first semester had increased three percent since the spring of 2005.
Looking to the future
Roney said more effects would be clear after freshmen from 2005 began to graduate. While a fouryear plan will never suit all students, she said an increased graduation rate would improve the reputation of the University and the quality of education.
"Taking responsibility for your own education can be daunting if you don't know what you're doing."
Mya Lawrence will be a fifthyear senior next fall. She works as a residence assistant in Elsworth Hall and as a peer advisor. She said the focus on graduating in four years sometimes pushed students
"Graduation rates are a measure of success," Roney said. "As an

administrator and an educator it's about doing the best job to encourage, support and enable students to be successful while they're here. It's going to be exhausting in a good wav."
Before he walks down the hill. Bretches had some parting advice for students.
"It's important that you take your time and enjoy your college experience. If that means you need to take a little bit slower of a pace, then do," he said. "When you're 30, nobody's going to care."

The Kansas Biological Survey is developing data models to help understand what conditions cause algal blooms, a common problem in Kansas' lakes. The algae produce geosmin, a substance that causes the water to taste and smell bad.
Researchers at the Kansas Biological Survey have been collecting samples from lakes since May 2006. They will analyze the
One major problem researchers have faced is the high number of variables that influence algal blooms. Because of that, they have had to monitor each lake individually.

Best management practices are ways to decrease the impact that storm water runoff have on the environment. When it rains, the nutrients from fertilizers are washed away and deposited in the lake. The algae feed off these nutrients and grow excessively - a process called eutrophication.

"The lakes are individual themselves, so they have different characteristics that accentuate the problems." Liechti said.
"Ultimately we would like to prevent the algal blooms, but that is a really hard task because you would have to change a lot of best management practices," Dzialowski said.

The PureCart Systems' newest product was on display at the Food Marketing Institute show Monday in Chicago. Despite consumer concerns about food safety, PureCart president Jim Kratowicz says products such as his still have a tough sell. That's because even though consumers want clean carts, companies worry about sending the wrong message. Consumers might wonder, "What are grocers telling me? They're telling me they have dirty carts," he said.
BY J.M. HIRSCH ASSOCIATED PRESS
CHICAGO — Standing in a long line at the grocer soon might get you through the checkout faster.
That's because a British company has designed a system to track and predict the movements of supermarket shoppers using thermal imaging. A computer analyzes data from infrared cameras, then advises when and where additional cashiers are needed.
"The idea is that the more pleasant the checkout experience, the more you will buy," said Nick Stogdale, senior sales manager for InfraRed Integrated Systems' SMARTLANE product. The system is being tested by two U.S. chains.
The SMARTLANE was one of many new food-related technologies on display at this week's Food Marketing Institute show, where speed, ease, sanitation and a touch of theater ruled.
Take the case of rotisserie chicken, one of the most popular items in the fast-growing prepared foods category: The latest crop of chicken roasters — those ubiquitous ovens that endlessly twirl crisp, golden chickens at grocers across the nation
— are designed not just to cook, but also to capture your attention with good looks and funky design.
Hence, the Multisserie, an upright, clear cylindrical oven by Netherlands-based Fri-Jado that spins the chickens on end, like a giant top. "We try to bring a very high show element to it," marketing director Ernst Goettsch said.
The same thinking also influenced the design of Montreal-based Hardt's Inferno Rotisserie, which offers a crowd-pleasing self-cleaning function that looks like a sprinkler gone wild.
"The more a supermarket can do to create a show or to create a restaurant-style experience, the more sales they make," said Michael Griffin, a vice president of sales for Hardt.
For those who prefer their food slightly pixelated, food industry analyst Phil Lempert has teamed with Kraft Foods and the National Grocers Association to launch a virtual supermarket in the online fantasy world known as Second Life.
Though visitors to Phil's Supermarket can guide their avatars
(online parlance for a user's digital personification) through the store to explore products, watch cooking demos and see the latest food and health news.
The idea is to help people navigate the real world of food by letting them "pre-shop," accessing nutritional data and other information

Three University of Kansas graduate students are using an advanced radar system in Greenland for almost two weeks to help analyze the rate of climate change, said Steve Ingalls, associate director of administration at the Center for Remote Sensing of Ice Sheets.
The students, Sahana Rhagunandan, Mahmood Abdul Hammed and Anthony Hoch, will be studying evidence from the last glacial period using the GISMO radar system.
"Ultimately we want to use the GISMO radar to see what Greenland would look like if you took the ice off of it" Ingalls said.
With increasing concerns about global climate change and rising sea levels, CREIS develops new technologies and computer models to measure and predict sea-level change from melting ice sheets, Ingalls said. The student group is working with a Danish team, which is chemically analyzing samples of ice from the Eemian layer, which is the bottom layer of the ice sheet. Raghunandan and Hammed will work with the radar until they return on May 5. Hoch will return May 15.
Raghunandan worked twelve-hour days the week before leaving preparing files and data systems to process the information the radar would collect, she said.
"It is going to be a once-in-a-lifetime experience to be going to Greenland. It will be exciting to see if the radar is working like we expect it to be." Raghunandan said.
The data from GISMO will help determine how much the ice cap over Greenland shrunk during the last global warming period, Ingalls said. He said the data was important for scientists and the general public.
"What we need to do is create models for scientists that explain the more rapid, more interesting things that have been going on. Once we get these models right, we will be able to better predict the contribution of these ice sheets and their response to climate change," Ingalls said.
More than 107 million people in the world live within one meter of sea level. Ingalls said the ice was important to take into consideration.
"It is pretty important if you live somewhere like Bangladesh and you rely on the environment to survive. Or, if you are a land developer in Miami and you are concerned about whether your investment is going to pan out or be under water in 100 years," Ingalls said.
The trip to Greenland will be Raghunandan's first; however, several other CReSIS students and staff conduct research on the ice sheets regularly. Christopher Allen, associate director of technology, said it would take three summers of drilling in Greenland to reach the Eemian layer of ice closest to the bottom.
"We get to the location on the ice sheet, set up camp, start drilling into the ice and by August we have to leave before the bad weather hits. We can only dill a third of the way down each time." Allen said.
Students will be hundreds of miles from civilization and three kilometers above sea level, Allen said.
"It is featureless," Allen said. "There is snow to the horizon in all directions and the sun never sets." The students are equipped with tents and gear designed for arctic deployment, Allen said. The National Science Foundation, NASA and the University financially support trips through CReSIS.

Attorneys general in Connecticut and Illinois recently announced that Redux had agreed to stop marketing Cocaine in those states, while a judge in Texas has halted distribution there.
"Our goal is to literally flush Cocaine down the drain across the nation," said Connecticut Attorney General Richard Blumenthal, who announced the company's agreement with his state Monday. "Our main complaint about Cocaine is its name and marketing strategy seeking to glorify illegal drug use and exploit the allure of marketing 'Speed in a Can,' as it called the product."

As part of the agreement, Connecticut distributors and retailers can return unused product to Redux for a full refund.

WASHINGTON — In a triumph for the pharmaceutical industry, the Senate on Monday killed a drive to allow consumers to buy prescription drugs from abroad at a savings over domestic prices.
Senate bans international prescription drug sales
On a 49-40 vote, the Senate required the administration to certify the safety and effectiveness of imported drugs before they can be imported, a requirement that officials have said they cannot meet.
The vote neutralized a second amendment, later passed on a voice vote, that would legalize the importation of prescription drugs manufactured in Canada, Australia Europe, Japan and New Zealand.
"Well, once again the big drug companies have proved that they are the most powerful and best financed lobby in Washington,"
said Sen. David Vitter, a Louisiana Republican.

Kansans evacuate after flash floods
BY JOHN HANN ASSOCIATED PRES
TOPEKA — Flash flooding and high water forced hundreds of Kansans from their homes early Monday and shut down streets and highways around the state.
Authorities had rescued more than 500 people around Topeka, many along Shunanguanga and Soldier creeks, said Dave Bevans, a spokesman for Shawnee County emergency operations. Most were pulled from flooded homes starting around 2 a.m. An additional 18 people were rescued from rooftops in Wakarusa. He said he had no reports of injuries.
At a news conference late Monday morning, Bevans said rescues had stopped and the water was receding.
"It looks like it is going to dry up" he said. "We have finished rescuing all the folks."
The weather service reported widespread flooding of creeks, streams and low-lying areas
throughout northeast and east-central Kansas.
Officials said the Kansas River in Topeka and Lawrence was expected to continue to rise throughout the day before cresting.
Bill Gargan, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service in Topeka, said some isolated areas had received 8 inches to 9 inches of rain but 3 inches to 5 inches were more common. He said heavy rainfall was reported in the southwest, central and eastern sections of the state.
Several schools in the Topeka area were closed for the day, and evacuation centers were set up on the Washburn University campus and the Kansas Expo Center.
Rainfall amounts for the 24 hours that ended at 7 a.m. included 6.73 inches in Topeka, 5.06 inches in Emporia, 6.65 inches in Miller, 6.15 inches in Lebo and 5.06 inches in Neosho Rapids.
The weather service said much of Kansas can expect more rain for the next few days.

Kansas, Missouri compete for killer germ research lab
WASHINGTON — A dozen states including Kansas and Missouri, are competing for a government research lab full of killer germs like anthrax, avian flu and foot-and-mouth disease.
The states are bidding for a proposed 520,000-square-foot National Bio- and Agro-Defense Facility that will cost at least $450 million to build. It would replace an aging, smaller lab at Plum Island, N.Y., where security lapses after the 2001 terrorist attacks drew scrutiny from Congress and government investigators.
The Homeland Security Depart ment facility promises at least 300 lab-related jobs, and more in
construction. Congress provided money for the $47 million design and architecture, but no money has been appropriated yet for construction or operations.
States' written bids have not been made public. However, they were required to make available at least 30 acres of land.
Kansas has launched one of the most aggressive bids. The state is offering two sites — in Manhattan and Leavenworth — and touting its location in the heartland of the nation's agricultural economy.
Kansas Gov. Kathleen Sebelius, a democrat, formed a state task force to land the lab while U.S. Sen. Pat Roberts (R-Kan), has taken the lead in lobbying Homeland Security officials. The state has also included former Agriculture Secretary Dan Glickman on its team.
"We have the total support of the state for this facility," Roberts said Monday in a telephone interview from Boston, where he was heading a group of more than 100 Kansas officials at an annual biotechnology convention. "It would put us on the map as THE bioscience center, not only in the United States but in the world."
The competition intensified last month as federal officials began visits to 17 potential sites. The government has said it would take into account offers of roads, cheap water supplies and discounted utilities, and states are dangling their premier scientific expertise and community treasures as bait.

GREENSBURG TORNADO
One found alive, two others dead
BY ROXANA HEGEMAN ASSOCIATED PRESS
GREENSBURG — Two more bodies have been recovered in Greensburg, authorities said Monday, raising to 10 the number of dead from Friday's powerful tornado that obliterated the tiny southwest Kansas town.
Little remained standing in the town of 1,500 residents but the grain elevator. The tornado demolished every business on the main street. Churches lost their steeples, trees were stripped of their branches and neighborhoods were flattened. Officials estimate as much as 95 percent of the town was destroyed.
The massive tornado, an enhanced F-5 with wind estimated at 205 mph, was part of a weekend of violent storms across the Plains that killed at least 12 people, all of them in Kansas. Authorities have not identified any of the victims.
One of the latest two victims was found under structural rubble in the middle of town, City Administrator Steve Hewitt said. The other body was pulled from a lake outside of town.
Earlier Monday, officials said one person had been found alive in the rubble, bringing some good news to residents making a grim return to their destroyed homes.
There remained plenty of caution about what the rubble might reveal
in the coming days. There remained plenty of caution about what the rubble might reveal in the coming days. Since the tornado hit Friday night, emergency responders have had little indication of how many people in this central Kansas town of 1,500 may be safely staying with friends or relatives, rather than in shelters.

EXTREME MAKE-OVER: JAIL EDITION
TV host apologizes for driving drunk
ASSOCIATED PRESS
LOS ANGELES — Ty Pennington, host of ABC's "Extreme Makeover: Home Edition," apologized to his fans and co-workers Monday after he was arrested for investigation of drunken driving.
"We all make mistakes, however this is about accountability. Under no circumstances should anyone consume alcohol while driving. I could have jeopardized the lives of others and I am grateful there was no accident or harm done to anyone," the reality TV host said.
"Imade an error in judgment," Pennington said in a statement released through his publicist, Stan Rosenfield.
Pennington was arrested on a misdemeanor charge shortly after 12:30 a.m. Saturday by the Police Department's West Traffic Division, according to inmate information posted on the county Sheriff's Department Web site.
Pennington was released two hours later after posting $5,000 bail and was due back in court June 4, according to the Web site.
"This was my wake-up call," Pennington said. "I also want to apologize to my fans, ABC Television and my design team for my lapse in judgment and the embarrassment I have caused."
Police officials said Monday they had no further information.
Hasselhoff taped drunk
CUSTODY
ASSOCIATED PRESS
LOS ANGELES — A judge on Monday suspended David Hasselhoff's visitation rights with his two teenage daughters after last week's surfacing of a videotape showing the recovering alcoholic apparently intoxicated in his Las Vegas home.
"This videotape changes the landscape, it just does," Superior Court Judge Mark Juhas said.
The judge set a May 21 hearing to determine if the tape is authentic and who was responsible for its release. His visitation order will remain in effect until then.
Hasselhoff, 54, did not attend the hearing, but his former wife Pamela Bach was there.
Portions of the video were aired last week on syndicated entertainment shows. The video shows Hassel hoff, wearing only blue jeans, lying on a floor and clumsily eating a
sents Bach, said her client was upset about the release of the tape and stunned by her former husband's behavior in front of their daughter.
"She's devastated the videotape was put out in the press," Opri said. "When a mother hears this from her daughter, what does she think? '1 haven't protected my daughters.'"
The syndicated entertainment shows said the tape was made about three months ago by Hasselhoff's 16-year-old daughter, Taylor-Ann, in his home in Las Vegas, where the former "Baywatch" star had been appearing in a stage version of "The Producers."
"When a mother hears this from her daughter, what does she think? 'I haven't protected my daughters.'"

Hasselhoff said in a statement last week that he's a recovering alcoholic and the tape was made to show him what he can be like under the influence of alcohol.
"I have learned from it and I am back on my game," he said then.
A message left Monday for Hasselhoff's attorney, Melvin Goldsman, was not immediately returned.

alcohol in your system you're gonna be fired from the show. Tomorrow. You hear me? No alcohol."
"OK," Hasselhoff replies in a slurred voice.
Hasselhoff filed for divorce from Bach last year after 16 years of marriage, citing irreconcilable differences. Bach, 43, filed her own divorce papers, also citing irreconcilable differences.
In addition to Taylor-Ann, they have a 14-year-old daughter. The couple share joint custody of the girls, Opri said.

NEW YORK — Usher's mother has been his manager since he was a teen, but now the superstar says he wants her to be just "mom."
The Grammy winner confirmed Monday that Jonnetta Patton is no longer in charge of his career.
"She and I are on great terms and support each other in our life's endeavors. We are both very happy but are now working in different areas of the business," he said in a statement to The Associated Press.
"This is great for me because it means I now get to have my mother strictly as my mother with no added pressure."
Usher said he believed that by ending his professional relationship with his mother, it would bring them closer.
"At this time in my life, I am simply more interested in building the strength of my family. And in order to do that, I feel it's best to separate my business life from my personal life" he said.
This is the second major change this year for Usher, 28. In March, he announced his engagement to his longtime girlfriend, stylist Tameka

AT THE MOVIES 'Spider-Man 3' pays off with box office records
LOS ANGELES — The whopping $258 million it cost to make "Spider-Man 3" looks like a sound investment after the film shattered box-office records with $151.1 million domestically and $382 million worldwide in just days.
Final numbers Monday came in even higher than distributor Sony
Pictures figures on Sunday, when the studio estimated that "SpiderMan 3" took in $148 million domestically for the weekend and had pulled in $375 million worldwide since it began debuting overseas last Tuesday.
The third film about the Marvel Comics superhero soared past the previous record holder, "Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest," which debuted with $135.6 million domestically last July.
"Spider-Man 3" also easily surpassed the $114.8 million opening weekend of "Spider-Man" in 2002, which had held the record until "Dead Man's Chest" sailed in.

OPINION
》 OUR VIEW
Cheaters waste a pricey education
With May beginning to bloom, most people think of flowers or warm weather. Students see these first few weeks of May as finals time. Cramming for tests, writing papers and making note cards, these are the attributes of the first few weeks of May for almost every student.
Last week 34 students at Duke University's Fuqua School of Business didn't prepare for May. These students were caught cheating in the prestigious business school. According to a report in the Middletown Journal, "The average age of students in the first-year class is 29, and more than 1,140 people applied for only 411 available spots in the program."
So not only are these students cheaters,but they're deep into adulthood and have competitive test scores,resumes and academic ability.
So these "students" — using the term loosely — each compete for a spot in a competitive school, they spend nearly $50,000 a year
Getting caught cheating next week would be infinitely worse than losing a few points on a test. We're all paying to be here — or our parents or the government are — so don't waste all that money for a quick fix to something you could have controlled to begin with.
— Tasha Riggins for the editorial board
Students, especially in large lecture classes with multiple-choice tests, can almost always find an opportunity to cheat. What University of Kansas students need to remember next week is that cheating not only cheats the academic system, but it also cheats that person using the answers written on her hand.
for tuition and now they're getting kicked out because they didn't want to learn. These students went through an arduous process to get into this school and learn, and then they cheated to avoid learning; that's irony at its wasteful finest.

Any good business student should perform a basic cost-benefit analysis before following with a transaction. I'll help them examine it: getting a C on a test is better than being at least $50,000 in debt with no degree and crime, like a big scarlet letter, on your permanent record for up to three years.

》 LETTER TO THE EDITOR
Letters debate abortion
Although abortion can be reduced to a matter of differing philosophies, we can't forget the real people affected
Abortion is an issue riddled with philosophical implications. The point at which a group of cells can rightfully have "humanness," the value of human life and others are all interesting to debate. It's a fascinating subject to think about, but abortion goes beyond syllogisms.
There is a massive difference between arguing "Rationalism vs. Empiricism" and abortion.
I'm all for universal health care. Adoption agencies and foster homes are not as good as children deserve.
In the abortion debate, it is easy to forget that real people are affected. It is also easy to forget that the opposing sides care deeply about the mothers; the real difference lies in the solution to the problem of an unwanted pregnancy.
It is easy to forget that real people are affected. It is also easy to forget that the opposing sides care deeply about the mothers.
I'd even be for having a universal maternal care program.
No sane person would argue that pregnancy is easy. Even before they "gain personhood," babies take a lot of time and money — but so do I being here at the University of Kansas. The solution is to help with the effects, not abort the cause.
But if abortion is continued to be seen as just another means to lead a lifestyle without regard for the consequences, I am only reminded of the words of Mother Teresa:
"It is a poverty to decide that a child must die so that you may live as you wish."

》 LETTER TO THE EDITOR
Single mothers can pursue motherhood and school. They shouldn't be told it's impossible to have both.
This is in response to the letter to the editor on Monday. While I do agree with Ms. Johnson's statement that "in a perfect world birth control would be 100 percent effective and abortions would be legal everywhere," I feel it necessary to comment on another assertion she made: "Raising a child takes money, time, and energy. A student, at the high school or college level, has none of these to devote to a child."
I have been raising a son on my own for almost eight years, and have been in college for five. I was 18 years old when I got pregnant. Many young women my age would have opted for abortion; I chose not to.
It has taken a lot of time, money and energy to be both a good mother and a good student,but I will never regret the decision I made. While I've missed out on
While I've missed out on things like dorm life, spring break trips to South Padre Island and all-night keggers, I would never trade the experiences I have had as a mother for the typical college life.
Many women are unaware of it being possible to raise a child on one's own and to be a successful college student. Ideally, all young people should be educated about their options before and after pregnancy. The fear that one cannot be both a mother and educated keeps all too many women from choosing motherhood, and all too many single mothers from choosing to educate themselves.
This does not mean that abortion should not be kept safe and legal; it simply means that more efficient education of young women is necessary in order to allow them to make the best decisions they can about what to do in the case of an unexpected pregnancy.

Oil executives plead guilty
BY RACHEL D'ORO
ASSOCIATED PRESS
ANCHORAGE, Alaska — Two top officers of an oil services company pleaded guilty Monday to bribing Alaska lawmakers with cash and the promise of jobs, contracts and favors for their backing on bills supported by the multinational firm.
Bill I. Allen, chief executive of Anchorage-based VECO Corp., and Rick Smith, a vice president, pleaded guilty in U.S. District Court to extortion, bribery, and conspiracy to impede the Internal Revenue Service.
Prosecutors say Smith, Allen and five state lawmakers conspired to buy the lawmakers' support, with money and other financial benefits, according to court documents.
Allen also pleaded guilty to issuing company bonuses to VECO executives to repay them for campaign contributions they made to politicians, then claiming those bonuses as legitimate company expenses.
Sentencing was not immediately scheduled. The sentencing recommendation for Allen is between nine and just more than 11 years in prison and a fine between $15,000 and $150,000, according to the plea agreement dated Wednesday and unsealed Monday.
The pleas came three days after federal prosecutors indicted one current and two former members of the Alaska House of Representatives on bribery and extortion charges related to last year's negotiations for a new oil and gas tax and a proposed natural gas pipeline.
The three indicted lawmakers
— Rep. Vic Kohring of Wasilla and former Reps. Pete Kott of Eagle River and Bruce Weyrahuck of Juneau — pleaded not guilty Friday.
Kott, the former House speaker, is accused of accepting $8,993 in payments, $2,750 in polling expenses and the promise of a contract as a lobbyist for VECO in exchange for his support of the proposed pipeline and a tax proposal that favored VECO. He said he would
throw his support behind the company if he was made warden of a prison the company was building in the Caribbean, according to the indictment.
The tax passed, but the contract for the pipeline was never approved.
The indictment did not name the company, but an attorney for VECO Corp. said it was the company involved. The company issued a news release Friday, two days after Allen signed the plea agreement, saying the charges involve Allen and Smith, but no corporate subsidiaries or other executives.
Kohring is accused of demanding and accepting up to $2,600 in cash and a $3,000 job for a relative from VECO executives in exchange for his support. The indictment also alleges Kohring sought but did not receive a $17,000 loan for credit card debt.
Weyhrauch, a 54-year-old lawyer, is charged with helping advance the oil service company's causes in exchange for the promise of future legal work, the indictment said.

The president's slip of the tongue during welcoming speeches was inadventive, of course, and quickly smoothed over with humor. But it wasn't exactly the flawless effort Bush had hoped would erase memories of the "talking hat" episode during the queen's last U.S. visit. (In 1991, during Bush's father's administration, a too-short lectern left the audience able to see only the queen's hat behind microphones.)

The queen, a sprightly 81, gave an embarrassed Bush a gracious nod after he suggested she had celebrated the United States' founding in 1776. He meant to say she had attended 1976 bicentennial festivities.
"She gave me a look that only a
mother could give a child," the president quipped, earning a reserved chuckle from his guest.
The president and the queen took markedly different approaches to their formal remarks.
Bush focused on the partnership between the United States and Britain in Iraq and against terrorism. In just four minutes, he mentioned "freedom" and "liberty" seven times. "Your majesty, I appreciate your leadership during these times of danger and decision," he said.
By contrast, the queen said her fifth journey to the United States was an occasion to "step back from our current occupations."
But despite the hundreds of hours of preparation, Laura Bush suggested that this white-tie affair could not only be their first — but last. She called the dinner, somewhat wistfully, "the most elegant and most formal that we'll host."

Tenight's game against Rockhurst was canceled because of a scheduling conflict. This is the fifteenth time this season that the Jayhawks will not be playing when they were scheduled to.
Rockhurst game canceled
BY ALISSA BAUER
Kansas can't catch a break.
The rain stopped, the lights work, but for the 15th time this season, the Jayhawks will not be playing when they were scheduled to be playing. Tonight's game against Rockhurst was cancelled because of a scheduling conflict.
Rockhurst was scheduled to make up an April 3 rain-out game against Quincy, in Quincy, Ill., tonight. Because the Cougars didn't qualify for their conference tournament, Rockhurst thought it would be able to come to Kansas to play instead of traveling to Illinois during finals week to make up the game against
Quincy.
On Monday, Rockhurst coach Gary Burns told Kansas coach Ritch Price that he had been informed that his team would need to go to Quincy to make-up the post-poned game.
Price said Burns also told him that in the years he's been with the program, a make-up game such as this had never happened.
"It's depressing." Price said. "There's no doubt about it."
The cancellation couldn't have come at a worse time. On Sunday, the Jayhawks were forced to take their first conference sweep because the series finale was rained out. On Monday, Rockhurst coach Gary
Burns told Kansas coach Ritch Price that he had been informed that his team would need to go to Quincy to make-up the post-poned game.
"I understand that rule," Price said, referencing how difficult it was for conference teams like Texas to travel. "But that's the one disappointment about the rule. It effects the standings without you being able to decide it on the field."
Big 12 conference standings are decided by winning percentage, so the lajhawks won't suffer by playing fewer games, but the pain of their first Big 12 sweep was much more painful.
"That hurt bad." Price said when the news broke that Sunday's game
was cancelled and would not be made up. "You could feel it in our dugout. It was like somebody fired a shot through the locker room."
But Price won't let the string of cancelled games affect his players' mentality. All he would mention was the difficulty his team has at the plate when trying to follow this consistent inconsistency.
"One of the things you preach to your players is that you can't make excuses," Price said.

>> NCAA CHAMPIONSHIPS
Kansas to go to tourney
The Kansas men's golf team has been selected to play at the NCAA Championships. The team will travel to Sugar Grove, Ill., and compete in the Central Regional on May 17-19.
"We are obviously really excited to be invited to compete," coach Ross Randall said in statement released Monday evening. "We were afraid that we might not make it after our finish at the Big 12 Championship, but we are now looking forward to redeeming ourselves at regionals."
The Jayhawks played in Sugar Grove, Ill., earlier in the season where they finished fifth out of 12 teams. Seniors Gary Woodland and Tyler Docking both had top-20 finishes at the tournament.
Kansas finished 10th last month at the Big 12 Championships.
Kansas didn't qualify as a team for the NCAA Regionals a season ago. Woodland competed individually and finished 75th.
Entering the NCAA Central Regional, the Jayhawks are 20th out of 27 teams. The top 10 teams and top two individuals from each of the three regions will move on to the championship final. That event will be held May 30-June 2 in Williamsburg, Va.

Jayhawks fall back into last place Games could provide pivotal Big 12 Conference matchups
BY SHAWN SHROYER
BAYLOR
ON DECK: After taking last weekend off, Baylor resumes Big 12 play this weekend on the road against Nebraska.
Up: Kansas State right-hander Brad Hutt (8-3) out dueled Kansas left-hander Andy Marks (3-6) Friday night. Although Marks surrendered only one hit in seven innings, Hutt kept the Wildcats in position for a comeback, allowing one run in eight innings, striking out six.

KANSAS STATE (31-17, 9-11)
Series: Kansas State. 20:00
Series: Kansas State, 2-0; Game
three trained out
In the hole: Kansas. The Jayhawks are back in last place in the Big 12. To jump from 10th place to 8th and qualify for the Big 12 Tournament, Kansas needs to sweep Nebraska two weekends from now and hope a lot of other teams get swept.
On deck: Kansas looks to regain that winning sensation this weekend with four games against Chicago State. The Jayhawks will play once Friday, a doubleheader on Saturday and conclude the series on Sunday. Kansas State will play host to Texas A&M this weekend.
NO. 7 TEXAS (38-14,18-6)
VS. MISSOURI (33-13,14-7)
Up: The Tigers followed catcher Trevor Coleman's lead this weekend. He went 2-for-5 with a solo home run (6) in Missouri's victory on Friday, but 0-for-3 in its loss on Saturday. To help the Tigers clinch the series over the top team in the Big 12, Colemen went 2-for-5 with two more home runs (7,8).
Series: Missouri, 2-1
In the hole: Texas center fielder Nick Peoples was the yin to Coleman's yang as the Longhorns dropped their first Big 12 series of the season. He went 1-for-11 in the series with six strikeouts from the leadoff spot in the order, leaving five men on base.
On deck: Texas has no games scheduled this weekend while Missouri returns home to take on Oklahoma.
NEBRASKA (25-20, 10-11)
VS. COASTAL CAROLINA
(38-9)
Series: Coastal Carolina, 2-0; Game three rained out
Up: Coastal Carolina received a clutch performance from right-hander David Anderson (4-3) on Friday. Anderson threw 103 pitches in six innings of relief for the Chanticleers and allowed only one run. It was his longest relief appearance of the season and he was rewarded with Big South Pitcher of the Week honors.
NO. 19 OKLAHOMA STATE (34-13, 13-8) VS. OKLAHOMA (28-20, 8-13)
On deck: Luckily for Nebraska, its losses against Coastal Carolina won't affect its standing in the Big 12. Nebraska remains at home this weekend and resumes Big 12 play against Baylor.
In the hole: The Cornhuskers were outscored 13-7 in two games and first baseman Andrew Brown was one reason why. Brown went 1-for 9 with only one RBI while leaving three men on base.
Series: Oklahoma State. 3-0
Up: The Oklahoma State offense was running on all cylinders this weekend and shortstop Jordy Mercer was the most productive Cowboy of all. Mercer went 5-for-11 with two home runs (4,5), four RBI and four runs. However, he almost coughed up the sweep, allowing two runs as a relief pitcher on Sunday.
In the hole: Oklahoma starting pitching simply couldn't keep Oklahoma State off the scoreboard. Stephen Porlier (6-4), Heath Taylor (7-3) and Joseph Hughes (5-3) surrendered 14 runs on 24 hits in 13 innings during the weekend.

showcase their moves without being hacked to bits by physical forwards or stingy, double-teaming guards.
This rule would have helped Jackson and Kaun be more productive players. If they could stay around for one more year, their points and assists per game would certainly increase. In a double team situation, they could pass the ball out to an open guard patrolling the perimeter. If they weren't
Sasha Kaun and Darnell Jackson are out of luck. The NCAA is expected
But why would they care, won't this affect guards more than low-post players? The answer is no. A good shooter is a good shooter from any range. Practice enough from the new spot and there won't be a difference from one line to the other.
The new rule will make the college game a little more like the NBA style of play, even though it will still keep many elements of its own to differentiate itself from the pro level, such as the use of zone defenses.
- now the more likely scenario
- they'd have an easier time scoring.
If shooting isn't a problem, then why is the NCAA changing the rules? To open up the court. Perimeter defenders will be forced to guard players farther out on the floor, leaving more space inside the paint for low-post players to
The expanded three-point line has even been used before in some recent early-season tournaments. The result? Statistics show that three-point-shooting percentages dropped, but by a miniscule amount of less than one percent.
With a more spread-out court, the games will be less physical and more skillful. Teams with more athleticism and talented low-post players should be able to take advantage and win more games. Teams kind of like Kansas.
Robinett is an Austin, Texas senior in journalism.
Overall the new rule should be good for college basketball, or at least for the fans. Games won't be bogged down in the middle as much, and scoring will be more prevalent, which means more entertainment.

Players mixed about Championship

PONTE VEDRA BEACH, Fla.
— What some bill as the fifth-best golf tournament looked more like an open house Monday.
One by one, players pulled their courtesy cars to the front of the 77,000-square-foot clubhouse at The Players Championship and were pointed in every direction. Volunteers guided them to the locker room, to a players-only dining room where not even their agents were allowed, and to the "Tunnel of Champions" that led them out a back door to the refurbished Players Stadium Course on the TPC Sawgrass.
Most of them didn't know where they were.
"I'm a little lost," U.S. Open champion Geoff Ogilvy said. "It's such a big building."
And despite the new look at The Players Championship, one thing hasn't changed: No one is quite sure
what it is.
The fifth major?
That won't get too many arguments because the golf course is superb, the field is the strongest and deepest of the year and the purse for this year's tournament will be $9 million, the richest of any tournament in the world.
But there are only four majors, which is why Jeff Slumans famous line from four years ago still holds true.
"When you go to Denny's and order the Grand Slam
the PGA Championship in August and even the FedEx Cup finale in September.
But even with a new clubhouse and a refurbished golf course meant to play firm and fast in any weather, there is still enough evidence to suggest that one of these is not like
"When you go to Denny's and order the Grand Slam breakfast, they don't give you five things, do they?"
breakfast, they don't give you five things, do they?"
the other four.
One reason The Players moved from March to May was to give golf a major event every month, starting with the Masters in April through
JEFF SLUMAN Professional golfer
Tiger Woods, coming off a two-shot victory at the Wachovia Championship, won't arrive until Tuesday. Woods arrives no later than Monday for majors, sometimes even
Sunday.
Major championships attract fans from all over the country who come to watch. The Players largely remains a local event, drawing most of the crowd from county limits,
and a lot of them come to be seen. The PGA Tour is starting a campaign to attract more fans from outside the state of Florida, although this will take time.
And it probably doesn't help that The Players is held a week after the Wachovia Championship, which drew seemingly endless comparisons with a major championship last week, especially after Woods said he was "ecstatic" to have won considering the quality of the golf course against the strength of the field in such difficult conditions.
More than one player was asked at Quail Hollow what the difference was between last week and this week.
In every case, there was a pause for contemplation before a nod was given to The Players.
But they had to think about it.
Due they may be to think about it.
Carl Peterson offered the best answer when asked his definition of The Players.
"it's our championship," he said.
That should be enough.

Colorado Rockies' Troy Tulowitzki lands on top of St. Louis Cardinals' Yadier Molina after throwing to first for the double play in the third inning of their baseball game Monday at Busch Stadium in St. Louis. The Rockies beat the Cardinals 3-2 after Brad Hawpe drew a full-count walk with the bases loaded in the ninth inning.
BY R.B. FALLSTROM ASSOCIATED PRESS
Rockies win 3-2 against Cardinals
ST. LOUIS — Brad Hawpe drew a full-count walk with the bases loaded in the ninth inning for the tiebreaking run in the Colorado Rockies' 3-2 victory over the St. Louis Cardinals on Monday night.
Todd Helton homered for the Rockies, who have won three of four after taking the opener of a three-game series. Colorado was 1-5 at Busch Stadium last year.
Ryan Ludwick and Jim Edmonds each drove in a run for the Cardinals, who have lost seven of nine and are 5-11 at home. St. Louis is 2-2 during a six-game homestand, scoring in only three innings, and scored fewer
than three runs for the 16th time in their first 30 games.
T r o y
Tulowitzki had to
watch to score
the go-ahead run
after umpires
ruled that his
one-out drive
off the top of the
wall in left center
was a double
and not a home run. Manager Clint Hurdle drew his first ejection of the season for arguing the call with second base umpire Bob Davidson.
Johnson fell behind 3-1 in the count to Hawpe, got a called strike and then was well outside on ball four.
Replays were inconclusive on Tulowitzki's shot off Brian Falkenborg (0-1), but appeared to show the ball striking the base of a metal railing just above the top of the wall and beyond a section of shrubbery. Three more walks, including an intentional pass to Garrett Atkins by Tyler Johnson to load the bases, produced the run.
Zach McClellan (1-0) had two strikeouts in a perfect eighth and Brian Fuentes got the last three outs
for his eighth save in nine chances.
Troy Tulowitzki had to wait to score the go-ahead run after umpires ruled that his one-out drive off the top of the wall in left center was a double and not a home run.
Cardinals starter Anthony Reyes, who lost his first five starts, had his best outing of the year. Reyes, who won the World Series opener last fall, allowed two runs and three hits in six innings with five strikeouts and no walks.
Jeff Francis, who had lost a careerworst four straight starts with a 7.99 ERA, also had a strong outing for Colorado.
Francis allowed two runs and four hits in seven innings.
The Rockies were aided by three unconventional double plays, one on runner's interference, one on a poor bunt and a lineout to right after starting the runner off first.
Helton hit his third homer leading
on the second and Tulowitzki's two-out RBI double in the third made it 2-0. Helton batted .189 with no RBIs in 37 at-bats against the Cardinals last season.
trol problems to load the bases in the fourth on two walks and a single. Ludwick singled up the middle with a liner that barely missed Ludwick for one run and Edmonds' liner deflected off Francis' side to second baseman Oniar Quintanilla, who threw to first just in time for a run-scoring groundout that tied it at 2.
The Cardinals took advantage of Francis' con-
Notes: Cardinals 0F Juan Encarnacion was 6-for-41 (.146) with two RBIs during a reeb stint at Double-A Springfield. ... jeff Baker, who struck out as a pinch hitter to end the Rockies' seventh, is in a 1-for-30 slump. ... The Cardinals have used 27 lineups in the first 30 games. ... McClellan, who earned his first major league victory, has 13 strikeouts in 11 innings overall.

Still no conclusion in death of coach
BY ZARAR KHAN ASSOCIATED PRESS
KARACHI, Pakistan — The probe into the death of Pakistani's cricket coach, who was found dead in his room in a hotel in Jamaica, is "inconclusive", a Pakistani investigator said Monday.
The comments by Mir Zubair Mahmood, a senior Karachi detective who was sent to Jamaica to help the investigation into Bob Woolmer's death, casts doubt over earlier assertions by police there that the coach was murdered.
Jamaican police have said that Woolmer was found strangled in his room in an upscale hotel in Kingston on March 18, a day after his Pakistan squad was eliminated from the World Cup by Ireland in an upset defeat.
But Mahmood said that the cause of the coach's death has yet to be determined.
"No one can say that it was a murder or a natural death," Mahmood told The Associated Press. "Several tests have been sent to Scotland Yard and the results are awaited and the most I can say (is) that the investigation in Bob Woolmer's case is inconclusive."
Mahmood was involved in the probe into the killing of Wall Street Journal reporter Daniel Pearl, who was kidnapped and beheaded in Karachi in 2002.
A senior Jamaican investigator said last week that police there are trying to identify dozens of people captured by security cameras at the Jamaica Pegasus Hotel, where Woolmer was found dead.
About 80 unidentified people were filmed on Woolmer's floor during the days he and his team stayed at the hotel, Deputy Police Commissioner Mark Shields told AP last week.
The Sunday Times newspaper in Britain cited a source close to Jamaican police as saying Woolmer had ingested enough herbicide to kill him. That followed a report from the British Broadcasting Corp. that a toxicology test on Woolmer's body showed the presence of a drug that would have incapacitated him.

Hendrick team 'pounding' competition
》NASCAR
Greg Biffle, you're NASCAR's last hope. Please keep your hold on Darlington Raceway, where you'll try to win your third straight race this weekend.
Somebody has to do something to end this Hendrick onslaught, because seven wins in the last eight Nextel Cup赛 is hardly the party NASCAR was looking for this season. Although Hendrick has suddenly taken on the look of the 1927 New York Yankees, the competition isn't conceding just yet.
"I'm real confident that I can go back to Darlington and have a chance at winning again," Bittle said Monday. "Now, theymayfinish first, second, third again... but I feel like we have a good opportunity there."

Recent statistics show otherwise.
jimmie Johnson led a Hendrick parade at Richmond International Raceway, where he scored his fourth win of the season on Sunday while leading teammate Kyle Busch across the finish line. Hendrick cars actually ran 1-2-3 for the final 100 miles, but Jeff Gordon slipped to fourth right at the end.
Johnson's win was the third consecutive Hendrick victory, and the fourth time this season Hendrick cars finished 1-2.
It also kept Hendrick undefeated in the four Car of Tomorrow races this season, with no sign that Saturday in Darlington will be any different.
"I know Rick, I know his passion for winning and I know he's going to do whatever it takes," said rival car owner Ray Evenham, who won three championships as a Hendrick crew chief.
"Right now they are just pounding everybody. More power to him. He's worked for it and I don't see it letting up anytime soon."
The Car of Tomorrow was supposed to be NASCAR's great equalizer, the one variable that would close the gap between the elite teams
and those struggling to survive. It hasn't worked out that way, as even the usual contenders have struggled to keep pace with Hendrick.
Even Roush Fenway Racing,which paced NASCAR in 2005 by placing all five of its cars in the Chase for the
championship is lagging. Biffle, winless this season and 15th in the points, said Hendrick has lapped the competition in COT preparation.

for nine days testing, brief said. Hendrick officials scoffed at that estimation, and say they've actually only tested the car between 25 and 30 days.
But there's no denying that Hendrick has the most resources and is able to devote the most amount of time and energy toward developing its COT program.

said. "Their cars, they handle pretty good. They're getting through the center of the corner better with the COT, and that's just because they test the hell out of it.
Tony Stewart should have won at Bristol but had a mechanical failure. Denny Hamlin seemed to have Phoenix in the bag until he was caught speeding on pit road. And Kevin Harvick was the class of Richmond, only to wreck on pit road.
"No. Not many teams can do
"Hendrick's is not only at the top of the game performance-wise, but they haven't made any mistakes and haven't had any mechanical failures." Nextel Cup director John Darby said. "Everything is going right for them, and to some degree, the rest of the garage has helped them."
Hendrick cars, meanwhile, have had nary a thing go wrong.
Jeff Burton, who had an early engine failure on Sunday, agreed and was buoyed by the fact that teammate Harvick could have won at Richmond. If the competition can put together a complete package, Burton said he was confident the Hendrick cars can be beat.
"When I go to the racetrack, I don't think they're that much further ahead," Burton said.

BYSAM ALLEN DAILYBRUIN
NCAA moves back three-point line one foot
LOS ANGELES - NCAA football is known as the sport that doggedly utilizes a playoff system that drives its fans nuts Last week the NCAA employed this odd rulemaking philosophy in its basketball governance, deciding to move the 3-point archback a foot for the 2008-2009 season.
It was yet another strange choice from an institution that tends to nip-pick its rule book without recognizing its obsessed fanbase.
Last season the NCAA changed the way its football games were timed, by speeding up the clock but sacrificing the games' trademark dramatic finishes. The move was shortsighted at best, and it caused predictable rage from some top coaches. After just one year the new rule was erased from the books; the NCAA admitted its mistake.
Lengthening the 3-point arc from 19 feet 9 inches to 20.9 may not be as significant a change as the football timing, but it demonstrates a similar tendency from the NCAA brass.
The change is supposed to clear some space around the basket, creating a less physical game. It shows that the NCAA is leaning toward a pace like that of the flashy NBA.
The 3-point line change really reminds me of the football clock decision. Instead of going all the way to the 23-9 NBA arc, the NCAA chose an awkward middle ground. On the football side they chose to speed up the clock at crucial change of possession intervals, not after a first down, as the NFL does. The NCAA can recognize that adopting the pro rules would be a huge blunder, yet it still makes the smallest amendments just for the sake of making a change.
Perhaps these administrators just don't understand that college basketball fans love college basketball because it's not the NBA. Talk to any die-hard college hoops fan and they will surely tell you they would rather see a fundamentally sound 65-62 battle than a 120-118 NBA shootout.
Luckily for college hoops fans, one foot won't make much of a difference — it's just a bizarre choice. Some preseason tournaments have experimented with the 20-9 line in the past without a major statistical disparity. But because the women's arc won't be moved back, fans will have to get used to a confusing double arc on the floor at most games.
It does beg the question, however: Will coaches continue to encourage most players to take so many threes?
This half circle under the hoop (4 feet in radius) allows for easier officiating on the block-charge call, the toughest call for refs. More than that, it would limit one of the college game's most dangerous plays when a defender tries to sweo under the hoop to draw a charge as the offender flies toward the basket.
In the past two years, the institution has shown an odd tendency of blending its desire to remain different with changes that make it more like the pro game.
not draw a charge.
Of course the NCAA needs to continue to consider rule changes and address potential issues. But it
must remain cognizant of preserving the game and selecting only those elements of the pro model that will enhance its game without significant alterations.
Instead it should stay firm in its stance and keep the college games as they are and as the fans demand.
While the NCAA may have made a weird choice in moving back the arc, it made a serious mistake in not adopting the restricted area used in the NBA. In the NBA if a defender stands in the restricted area he can-
I think the answer is yes, simply because the line is still closer than the NBAs.
For example, would a player like Luc Richard Mbah a Moute focus on improving his 3-point shot even after the line is moved back?

in brief
NBA PLAYOFFS Pistons dominate Bulls again, take 2-0 series lead
AUBURN HILLS, Mich. — The Detroit Pistons punished the Chicago Bulls inside and out again
Tayshaun Prince scored 25 points on an array of mid-range shots, a dunk in traffic and
3-pointers to lead Detroit to a 108-87 victory Monday night and a 2-0 lead in the Eastern Conference semifinals.
Game 3 is Thursday in Chicago, giving the Bulls time to figure something out after being dominated in consecutive games.
Richard Hamilton had 24 points, Chris Webber scored 22, and Chauncey Billups had 14
points and 10 rebounds. Rasheed Wallace added 10 points.
Chicago's Tyrus Thomas scored 12 of his 18 points in the final quarter. Luol Deng scored 16 on 4-of-12 shooting, Ben Gordon and Ben Wallace each scored 13 and Kirk Hinrich was held to two points on 0-for-7 shooting.

》 NAISMITH HALL
Former employees allege misconduct
Change in management prompts concern about complex supervision
BY KATY BLAIR
Students at Naismith Hall say they've found themselves in an uncomfortable situation.
Since the former management company, AIMCO, was bought out by Campus Advantage Inc., a student housing management company, former student resident advisers — or SRAs — say Naismith has become a place of distress for residents and student resident advisers. Several
former SRAs and directors attribute the problem to the new lease specialist, Ryan Shreeve.
Shreeve declined to comment on the issues addressed in the story.
"It it went completely awry when Ryan took over," said Lauren Merget, Overland Park senior and former resident director.
Merget is one of the many residential employees who resigned her position at Naismith because of alleged issues with Shreeve's management style.
Merget said she noticed a difference immediately when the new company took over Naismith
"One of the vice presidents of the company came in, and he was so positive and had so many good things to say," Merget said. "But the message and vision he was presenting to us wasn't being

between the residents and advisers. He explained that Shreve favored some people more than others and allowed them to behave in ways that were detrimental to an educational atmosphere.
Eidelman said he quit
because there were too many double standards which were causing rifts
One alleged problem was Shreeve's re-institution of the "red cup rule," which allowed underaged students to drink alcohol in and around the hall, as long as it was in a red cup. This directly violates the leasing contract, which states under section 9-D.

Co-op house creates opportunities
Residents set rent review possible new roommates
BY KYLE CARTER
Steam rises from a pot of boiling water in the kitchen of the Ad Astra house as a large bowl of pasta boils on the stove next to another pot filled with oatmeal. Sara Anderson, a 2006 University of Kansas graduate with short brown hair and freckles, giggles as she dances a few feet away with her hands in the air alongside another giddy brunette, Lawrence junior Bonnie Robinson, who is about a head shorter with longer hair. Loud electronic music blares from a small, black box box.
In the next room over, a few other roommates watch a movie and another is buried in a book. They seem completely unaffected by the dance party in the kitchen and one pops her head in for a second to check her oatmeal.
Nine people live at the Ad Astra house, a co-op at 1033 Kentucky Street where the tenants serve as their own landlords, including regulating their rent and reviewing applications from potential roommates. The University of Kansas Student Housing Association, which has no affiliation with the University, bought the house for $1 from the Kansas University Endowment Association when it was scheduled for demolition in 2005 to make room for a new scholarship hall.

Students can now find more information on the KU Bookstores Web site about textbook requirements, but local private bookstores worry they will now have difficulties finding out which textbooks they need.
BY MATT ERICKSON
KUBookstore.com now allows anyone to look up the ISBN barcode needed to find the correct edition of each textbook required for summer
and fall classes. Previously, students had to call or go into the bookstores to get the ISBN.
Norris said the new service would let students find out which books they need, allowing them to look online or through textbook exchanges.
"Students have the right to this information," said Tim Norris, KU Bookstores director. "Why not make it easily available?"
He said it would also allow
private bookstores to find which books they needed to stock. Up to now, KU Bookstores gave the private stores this information through paper printouts of the textbook requisitions that faculty provided. They are stopping this practice and asking the stores to look online.
Bill Madi, textbook director for Jayhawk Bookstore, 1420 Crescent Road, said the online listings only provided the "bare bones" of textbook information.
The listings provide the title, author and ISBN of each book. Madl that said the paper printouts that private bookstores received in the past also contained other pieces of information, such as estimated enrollment numbers and messages from course instructors about multiple editions that could be used.

>> BOARDWALK FIRE
Rose trial enters seventh day with firey past
BY ERICK R. SCHMIDT
Robert Kidder was Rose's house parent at The Villages, a group housing unit for troubled children, between 2001 and 2005. Kidder said he was aware that Rose was a troubled youth, but that nothing in his past warned him from bringing Rose into the home.
Jason Allen Rose's history with fire and mental capacity were at the center of questioning as the Boardwalk Trial entered its seventh day on Tuesday.
Kimberley Smith, a Kansas Department of Social and Rehabilitation Services worker from Rose's hometown of El Dorado, told the jury of Rose's upbringing in as many as 10 different residences. Smith said that between the time Rose was first put into group housing in 1989 and the time he left his final group house in 2005, he was in trouble several times as a child for playing with lighters, matches and smoking cigarettes. Smith said that none of those instances involved Rose starting any fires.
Defense attorney Ron Evans focused his questioning on a series of alleged incidents of Rose playing with matches or lighters and his client's learning impairments.
Rose is accused of starting the October 2005 Boardwalk Apartments fire, which killed residents Jose Gonzalez, Helen "Volanda" Riddle and KU student Nicole Bingham. Rose is charged with aggravated arson, three counts of murder and seven counts of aggravated battery. The case originally went to trial in February but was declared a mistrial because of a late-surfacing witness.
"There was nothing indicating Jason was a firestarter," Kidder said. "We saw that Jason was pretty much a child who had been taken out of his home and probably had a lower emotional age and a lower IQ and nowhere left to go."
Kidder described Rose as having traits of a 3-year-old at times and at others, a mentality of a 10-year old. He said Rose's occasional temper tantrums were like that of a child.

Rachel Magario
BY RACHEL BURCHFIELD
Rachel Magario's smile lights up the room as she tells her life story — a story that began in Santos, São Paulo, Brazil, and went from there to Chile, Peru, and finally, the United States. Although her life has taken her from one country to another, Magario has one constant in her life — her dog, Hamlet, an 11-year-old black lab, is Magario's source of companionship, but more importantly, Hamlet is Magario's seeing eve dog.
Magario has been blind since she was six years old. To some, her blindness may be a disability, but for her, it is simply a character builder.
"I don't even like the word disabled," she said. "I might be limited in some parts of my life, but I'm overly talented in others. Everyone is like that. I do feel that I can do anything that anyone else can, I just have to use different means."
"Usually, dogs retire at age nine or 10," Magario said. "But really, you

University's, but she doesn't let that slow her down. Instead, she transforms problems into solutions.
"I have a journal, and in it I write down what I see is wrong and possible alternatives for it," she said.
Some of these alternatives include building a tactile map of campus, in which Braille and raised lines and symbols are used to show topographic features. Though she said it "took a couple of years to get the campus down," she hoped it would take much less time for future students.
When Magario was applying to universities in the United States 10 years ago, the first university that accepted her was the University of Kansas. She had wanted to attend either Harvard or New York University, but her parents urged her to come to the University because her dad, who had visited Kansas on business trips in the past, thought Lawrence would be a safer environment for her.
She arrived at the University in 1997, but in May 1998, she was hit by a car on campus. She suffered
severe kidney damage as a result of the accident. Somehow, though, she remained positive about the tragedy.
"Yeah, it got in the way, but it didn't stop me," she said. "That's something I'm proud of — I didn't lose hope on life."
In 2004, Magario graduated from the University with two undergraduate degrees in communication studies and geography. She is now in her second year of graduate school, pursuing a master's degree in education.
She said she could see herself going to law school one day; in 10 years she hopes to be helping implement policy change to create better technology and accessibility for people with disabilities. But no matter what Magario is doing, 10 years from now, she said she'd be doing it on her own terms.
"I know who I am," she said. "I'm not trying to be somebody else. I'm comfortable with who I am, and I'm happy with who I am."

NAISMITH (CONTINUED FROM 1A)
of this Lease, including the following: serving alcoholic beverages in Common Areas"
"it's hard to discipline someone when they say, 'Ryan said it's OK,'"
Eidelman said.
Eidelman said upon his resignation from Naismith, Shreeve offered him a resident director position, which would have paid about $80 more a week, and reimbursement on his tuition to remain in his position. That money would have likely come out of the summer budget for staff, Eidelman said.
"I'm the last person who quit, and he was begging me to stay," Eidelman said. "The whole thing is ridiculous."
Anna Wood, Chicago senior and former resident director, said her disapproval of the "red cup" rule wasn't the reason she was fired by Shreeve.
Wood said that in the early morning hours of April 5, a fire broke out in a resident's bathroom. She said, the resident had previously been out drinking with Shreve. She said the fire began in the resident's bathroom when a towel caught fire.
Although Wood said Shreeve did not answer the phone, she said she received a call from him later that morning. She said he seemed intoxicated. Wood said she told Shreeve that he needed to "sober up and come help me out." Although Shreeve was resistant, he arrived at Naimith approximately two hours later.
Wood said protocol required her to call Shreeve for emergencies. She said she called Shreeve to handle the situation.
Two weeks following the incident, Wood said she was fired by a Campus Advantage manager. When Wood asked Shreve about her firing, Wood said Shreeve attributed her dismissal to her inappropriate suggestion to "sober up."
Ray Jess, Buffalo Grove, Ill., senior and another former resident director, said he had many negative encounters with Shreeve since the spring semester began.
Jess and the other resident directors said Naismith had been understaffed since Shreeve's employment because four employees were fired and another nine who quit.
Late in the semester, Jess said he encountered a problem trying to staff a 4 to 8 a.m. shift, about which he called three staff members to ask if they were available.
Jess said he was asked to report to Shreeve's office soon after.
"He called me in, accusing me of waking up the entire staff because I was too lazy to work it myself." Jess said.
During an employee meeting later that day, Jess said he asked to use the restroom, and after being denied by Shreeve, left for the restroom. Although Jess has a medical condition for which he must use the restroom when necessary, Shreeve allegedly said his leaving was disrespectful and insubordinate.
"It was ridiculous," Jess said. "We're in college, I don't think we should even have to ask to go to the restroom."
Jess said he was eventually fired for submitting a PowerPoint presentation to Campus Advantage corporate, throughout which Shreeve was in several photographs drinking alcohol with minors. Another series of photographs depicts Shreeve and at least two students, traveling with open alcoholic containers in the vehicle.
Although Shreeve declined to comment, Stewart Davis, regional vice president of Campus Advantage and Naismith Hall, briefly addressed the situation.
"I was one of the people who received the PowerPoint, and we took it very seriously," Davis said. "We investigated it fully and found it without merit."
Davis said he thought there was a lot of misinformation being provided because students were unhappy with the change in management companies. He also said that Shreeve was not acting as the regional property manager and that the regional property manager would resume her duties in mid- to late June.
The former resident directors, Merget, Jess and Wood, said they were instructed by Shreve to document any problems, such as damage to property or refusal by a resident to pour out an alcoholic beverage; however, the former employees said they were frustrated because no action was taken after filing the documents with management.
The first resident said that during a party at the hall, a resident adviser chose what Shreeve thought was the wrong song during a party. He said Shreeve proceeded to tell nearby residents that the "staff messed up again."
"Our authority — our job rights and responsibilities — were taken away and the residents reacted in harmful ways," Merget said. "They knew they could get away with it."
Three current residents, who asked for anonymity because they feared retaliation by Shreeve, said that Shreeve would belittle the resident advisers and directors in front of them.
At other times, Shreeve was allegedly seen publicly arguing with resident advisers, snapping at them and insulting their ability to perform their job.
During rounds one evening, Shreeve, Wood and Merget found residents drinking in the hall. Merget said she attempted to make them put it out, as hall rule stated. But she said Shreeve told her the staff was not to make residents pour out alcohol in red cups.
"I knew at that moment, I could no longer ask these residents to do anything, because they wouldn't listen to me anymore," Merget said.
Merget said that she also witnessed Shreeve yelling at Eidelman in the hall lobby and that he continued to yell while he followed Eidelman outside to the bus stop.
Eidelman said he last knew that there were only seven resident advisers remaining, not even enough to have one on each of Naismith's nine residential floors.
dent said Shreve told residents he wanted to make Naismith "the next Abercrombie and Fitch" and started playing loud music in the hall. She said this was "unprofessional and embarrassing" because tours were being held for prospective residents.
She said she had seen her share of disturbing changes in the hall.
The second anonymous resi
"If I could break my lease, I would," the second source said. "It's hard to study with people running down the halls, drinking, yelling. AIMCO would never have allowed the noise."
The disturbing event for many residents was the "Hot Body Contest" Shreve allegedly organized and announced using the emergency-only intercom system. Speakers for the system are in every room of the hall.
The first anonymous resident said Shreve offered residents $25 to participate in the contest because no one offered to be involved. The resident said that drug use was rampant in the hall and that people got away with it because there were so few resident advisers left.
"This place is dirty just because of all the advertisements, especially phallic jokes," said the resident. He said one advertisement read "Lick it, suck it, taste it — Live the sweet life."
"You can smell marijuana anywhere. You'd get high just walking down the hall," the resident said. "My dorm is more of a whorehouse."
The freshman said the advertising scheme Shreeve devised for Naismith was not what he expected of a professional business.
The resident said he would not return to Naismith in the fall.
"I feel very uncomfortable around him," said a third anonymous resident of Shreeve. "It's scary, and I don't feel like they have their priorities straight, or he doesn't."
The resident said her mother had called several times to complain about the noise, drinking and drug use, because the resident and her roommates had complained with no success.
Merget said she was disappointed that she couldnt fulfill her duties as a resident director at Naismith. She said she enjoyed helping students with school and personal issues within the hall.
"The place that's advertised is not necessarily what you're going to get," Merget said.
"Management is neglecting to focus on what's important: the atmosphere for the residents," Jess said. "They're giving the idea that 'We're here to let you party,' and that's not an academic environment where you can succeed."
Jess said during his three years as a resident and employee at Naismith, he had never seen the hall in the state it was in right now.

Kidder was questioned by assistant district attorney Amy McGowen about his posts on the Lawrence Journal-World's Web site, www.ljworld.com during Rose's initial trial in February.

Jill Powell, a social worker at The Villages, told jurors she took a special interest in Rose while he was living in the house.
Evans also questioned Curt Hackshorn on Tuesday. Hackshorn is a fire chief in Belton, Mo., who specializes in fire assessment. He said there were a number of factors that made him question the prosecution's assessment of where and how the fire began.
"He didn't really have anyone else to do that piece," Powell said. "He was pretty much alone."
"There are three different causes: accidental, incendiary and undetermined," Hackshorn said. "At this particular time I would say this fire is undetermined."
Hackshorn investigated the fire after the Department of Alcohol, Firearms, Tobacco and Explosives had done the initial investigation. He said eyewitnesses reported everything from multiple explosions to possible drug trafficking in the building. Hackshorn said the ATF had acted inappropriately by ruling out accidental beginnings to the
The jury also heard from a former teacher of Jason Allen Rose, Catherine Lyman. Lyman told the jury that Rose had trouble with math and written language, but that she had no behavior problems with him.
Assistant district attorney David Melton cross-examined Hackshorn and called into question the evidence he had to work with. He asked Hackshorn if he had less evidence to work with than the ATF.
"He functioned at a level academically lower than others," Lyman said. "I would say his development socially was also lower, in terms of maturity."
The trial is expected to last up to two weeks and will begin again this morning at 9 a.m.

Playstation dispute sparks murder
FRESNO, Calif. — Police arrested a college student Tuesday suspected of opening fire in an off-campus apartment during a dispute over a video game console, killing one and wounding two others.
"There's a lot of nuances that aren't going to be able to be tacked on simply through this Web site." Madl said.
"Why do they think we should pick three stores in town and make sure that they get treatment beyond what students might get?" Norris said.
Jonquel Brooks, 19, was taken into custody after a series of intense phone negotiations with police, his parents and an attorney. Fresno Police Chief Jerry Dyer said.

Norris said the change would actually help the private retailers, allowing them to find textbook information online instead of going to the Kansas Union to get paper copies of the information.

He said that KU Bookstores would update the listings whenever they received new information and that the new system would give all people equal access to information about textbooks.

Brooks, a freshman at Fresno State University, was arrested on suspicion of murder and assault with a deadly weapon following a manhunt by police and federal agents in the neighborhoods surrounding the university.
The incident began when Brooks got into a confrontation with four men over a Sony PlayStation console shortly after 11 p.m. Monday, Dver said.

AD ASTRA (CONTINUED FROM 1A)
The housing association moved the house from its previous location at 1309 Kentucky St., where it was originally built by KU professor A.M. Wilcox more than 100 years ago and established it as its third student co-operative in town. The Association also runs the Sunflower House, located at 1406 Tennesse St., and the 1614 house, which is located at 1614 Kentucky St.
Aaron Paden, executive director of the housing association, said moving the house turned out to be a bigger project than he anticipated. Inching down the hill on 13th Street, it leaned so far that he worried it would tip over and the house would be destroyed. The house sat on a trailer with two tow trucks attached to keep it from speeding down the hill.
"It was like, whoa." Paden said of seeing the house travel down the hill.
coming down that street."
Overhanging trees scraped shingles off the roof and the tow trucks left grooves in the street due to the weight of the house.
The housing association also ran out of money during the process.

leaving the basement unfinished and some of the house was not painted. Paden said the dollar price tag was misleading because of the other costs that came along with moving the house. The transaction also saved the University the cost of demolishing the house.
"One of the bummers about moving an old house is that the expense of moving things like cable and electric lines is completely on the movers." Paden said.
We've got it.
The original tenants drew up a house manifesto, defining sustainable living and group cooperation as goals.
"You are your own landlord." Paden said. "Where else do you vote on rent increases?"
blue with colorful abstract designs. She bordered the walls with vines and flowers. She and her roommates used all-natural milk paint on the walls to be consistent with the goal of being sustainable.
Residents also have free rein to design their rooms how they please. Sara Anderson, an original resident of the house, painted her room dark
Residents don't sign a lease when they move in but rather pay rent on a month to month basis and are free to move out when they please. Rent ranges from $250 to $315 a month and includes all utilities. Everyone also pitches in $10 a month toward food purchased in bulk.
SARA ANDERSON Ad Astra resident
Anderson moved in when the house opened in the fall of 2005. She graduated last fall with a degree in speech and language pathology and now works for the department of design and construction management on campus.
Anderson said the Ad Astra residents grew a garden to keep food costs down and maintained a compost pile to avoid unnecessary waste. She admits the house still has a way to go toward being sustainable. A few of the original residents who drew up the goals for the house are still around but many others
have come and gone

Bonnie Robinson, Lawrence junior, moved in weeks after the house opened. Robinson hit it off with her new friends while driving back to the house where they used the rocks to landscape the front yard. Robinson moved in a few days later.
"We're still working on things," she said, "People are kind of in and out and they have varying interest in the house and the projects."
Robinson said people were constantly coming and going throughout the day because the house had nine residents. All nine meet every Sunday evening to discuss issues affecting the house and to plan future projects to ensure they are on the same page.
One was a workshop that taught the residents to make non-hazardous cleaning products. Another night the
house hosted a soap-making party.
Madeline DeCotes, who moved into the house in January from Nashville, Tenn., did just that. Shed practiced Kundalini Yoga for two and a half years and wanted to share it with others in the house. Decotes said it improved her life dramatically, including helping her to quit smoking pot.
"Any time someone here has something they want to teach people they just bring it up at the meeting." Anderson said.
"Doing any drug, you want to change your mindset, your consciousness; this type of yoga does that," she said.
One part of the yoga is the "breath of fire," designed to overwhelm the body with oxygen in a short amount of time. DeCotes breathes sharply in and out of her nose, her nostrils expanding and contracting with each rush of air as she twists her torso simultaneously. She alternates
this with slow, deliberate breaths, holding her eyes closed and smiling peacefully.
DeCotes said she usually practiced with two others in the house but wanted to provide a weekly workshop for the rest of the house and anyone else who needed to join, which she brought up at the meeting. They decided Wednesdays would work best.
On a weekend in February the house played host to a benefit party for a friend who was hospitalized after a sting-ray attack. Studie Redcorn, Shawnee junior and an original resident, held Delta Force parties at the house last year when he ran for student body president.
Redcorn lives in the basement, a recently completed addition to the house. The housing association ran out of money while moving the house and couldn't finish the interior immediately, but Paden said that despite the financial strain, the co-op proved to be a worthwhile project.

"It would've ended up in a land-fill" he said.
The history of co-op in Lawrence is intertwined with that of KU student housing. The Ad Astra house may never have existed if it were not for the scholarship hall built on the site of its former location. The Sunflower House, which was the first co-op in town, temporarily closed after the dorms on Daisy Hill were built. Paden said the Sunflower House reopened in the late 1960s and its success since then led to the establishment of the Ad Astra House.
For now, Redcorn said the roommates were saving money to install new windows to save energy. The windows in the house now are as old as the house is. Eventually, hed like to install solar panels on the roof to further save energy.

Six arrested in terror plot
Plan was to attack Ft. Dix, kill as many U.S. soldiers as possible
BY WAYNE PARRY ASSOCIATED PRESS
FORT DIX, N.J. — Six foreignborn Muslims were arrested and accused Tuesday of plotting to attack Fort Dix and slaughter scores of U.S. soldiers — a scheme the FBI said was foiled when the men asked a store clerk to copy a video of them firing assault weapons and screaming about ihad.
The defendants, all men in their 20s from the former Yugoslavia and the Middle East, include a pizza deliveryman suspected of using his job to scout out the military base.
Their goal was "to kill as many American soldiers as possible" with mortars, rocket-propelled grenades and guns, prosecutors said.
"Today we dodged a bullet. In fact, when you look at the type of weapons that this group was trying to purchase, we may have dodged a lot of bullets," FBI agent J.P. Weis said. "We had a group that was forming a platoon to take on an army,
They identified their target, they did their recommission. They had maps. And they were in the process of buying weapons. Luckily, we were able to stop that."
Authorities said there was no direct evidence connecting the men to any international terror organizations such as al-Qaida. But several of them said they were ready to kill and die "in the name of Allah," according to court papers.
Investigators said they infiltrated the group with two informants well over a year ago and bided their time while they secretly recorded the defendants, five of whom lived in Cherry Hill, a Philadelphia suburb about 20 miles from Fort Dix.
"This is what law enforcement is supposed to do in the post-9/11 era — stay one step ahead of those who are attempting to cause harm to innocent American citizens," U.S. Attorney Christopher Christie said.
Weis saluted the unidentified New Jersey store clerk who noticed the suspicious video as the "unsung
hero" of the case. "That's why we're here today — because of the courage and heroism of that individual," the FBI agent said.
In addition to plotting the attack on Fort Dix, the defendants spoke of assaulting a Navy installation in Philadelphia during the annual Army-Navy football game and conducted surveillance at other military installations in the region, prosecutors said.
One defendant, Eljvir Duke, was recorded as saying: "In the end, when it comes to defending your religion, when someone ... attacks your religion, your way of life, then you go ijad."
The six were arrested Monday night trying to buy AK-47 assault weapons, and other weapons from an FBI informant, authorities said.
They appeared in federal court Tuesday in Camden and were ordered held without bail for a hearing Friday. Five were charged with conspiracy to kill U.S. military personnel.

Corporations unite against global warming
WASHINGTON - General Motors Corp., and nearly a dozen other major companies, have joined the growing number of businesses calling for limits on greenhouse gases to combat global warming.
General Motors on Tuesday became the first automobile manufacturer to join the U.S. Climate Action Partnership, a coalition of corporate executives that wants Congress to enact an economy-wide mandatory cap on carbon dioxide emissions.
The group announced the addition of 14 new members including General Motors, PepsiCo, Royal Dutch Shell's U.S. subsidiary and two environmental organizations. Shell, which became the third oil company to join the group, had made its decision known last week.
"With this lineup of companies and environmental groups endorsing it, a carbon cap is clearly the consensus solution to climate change," said Fred Krupp, president of Environmental Defense, one of the original coalition members.
"We especially applaud (the coalition) for recognizing the important role that technology can play in achieving an economy-wide solution" to climate change, said GM Chairman Rick Wagoner.
General Motors said in a statement that the automaker views "the need to promote energy security and reduce greenhouse gas emissions as both a business necessity and an obligation to society."
In March, Wagoner said at a congressional hearing that GM was ready to discuss carbon constraints "as part of a broader climate change strategy."
Also joining the industry coalition, known as USCAP, were: Alcan Inc., the Canadian-based aluminum company; American International Group; Boston Scientific; ConocoPhillips; tractor manufacturer Deere & Co.; Dow Chemical Co.; Johnson & Johnson; the technology conglomerate Siemens Corp.; Marsh Inc., and two environmental groups, the National Wildlife Federation and the Nature Conservancy.
The coalition announced in January its intention to press Congress for so-called cap-and-trade legislation to limit greenhouse gas emissions. Its original 10 members included BP America, Duke Energy Corp. and General Electric Co.
There have been a number of climate bills introduced in Congress, calling for mandatory limits on greenhouse gases which scientists fear will cause a warming of the Earth if atmospheric concentrations are not stabilized by mid-century.

Accompanied by former president George H. W. Bush, a veteran of the war, and his wife, Barbara, the queen placed a wreath in honor of the 400,000 U.S. soldiers who died. It said: "In memory of the glorious dead."
Afterward there was a drum roll and a bugler played taps.

Dressed in a blue suit and hat, the queen then joined a park ranger for a walk around a fountain at the center of the memorial, stopping to look at the Lincoln Memorial and the Washington Monument before veterans of the war, some in wheelchairs.
The video link was one-way, so the crew members could not see the queen standing by silently wearing a large yellow hat.
The crew members — American Suni Williams and two Russians, Commander Fyodor Yurchikhin and Oleg Kotov — answered questions from British-born NASA astronaut C. Michael Foale, who stood next to the queen at the center.

She was to conclude her Washington visit by hosting a dinner for the Bushes at the British Embassy Tuesday night, a return favor for the white-tie state dinner Bush put on for the royal couple Monday night at the White House.
The queen politely replied: "We are happy to be here."
Outside the memorial, there was a crowd of several hundred behind a picket fence, on which two Union Jacks were draped. The crowd applauded as the queen's limousine went by.
It was the British monarch's first visit to the war memorial, which was dedicated in 2004. The queen, a teenage princess during World War II, served her country in the war as a driver in the Women's Auxiliary Territorial Service, the women's branch of the British Army.

Natural disasters rock Kansas hard
Harsh storms and extensive flooding force evacuations
BY JOHN HANNA ASSOCIATED PRESS
WAKARUSA - Nearly two dozen counties were dealing with flooding Tuesday morning as runoff from weekend storms continued to fill creeks and streams.
Bill Miskell, spokesman for the Kansas Department of Emergency Management, said local officials were monitoring waterways and advising residents of the potential for flooding. Nineteen counties have declared local disaster emergencies because of the rising water.
Areas of greatest concern were in Atchison and Doniphan counties along the west bank of the Missouri River.
"We are cautiously optimistic. So much of this dependent on the weather, not just here but north of us. Streams where the potential exists are being monitored," Miskell said.
Some residents near Yoder were being evacuated Tuesday morning as the Arkansas River came out of its banks, said Bill Guy, director of
Emergency Management for Reno County.
Residents in south Hutchinson were sandbagging Tuesday and high water was affecting many roads from Hutchinson to Haven. A few levy breaks were reported along the Arkansas River near Haven.
The conditions have improved from Monday when residents were forced from their homes across the state.
Flooding along the Wakarusa River cut off its namesake community south of Topeka. Residents used boats to rescue 22 people from their homes in the small town, said Willie Peterman, a district chief for an area fire department.
Cow Creek, in central Kansas, rose rapidly from weekend rain that

"I think every home within a quarter mile up and down the river is flooded for sure," Saxman resident Chad Mathews told The Hutchinson News. He estimated that Cow Creek was at least one-and-a-quarter miles wide at his home.
In Lyons, Cow Creek was expected to crest Tuesday night at 21 feet

Officials reported similar evacuations by boat in Saline County, about 100 miles to the west, where some locations received 8 inches of rain over the weekend. Flooding forced the evacuation of New Cambria, a town of about 150 people northeast of Salina.
Jarrod Harris watches flood water from Shunga Creek in front of his home in Topeka, Kan. on Monday. The area received more than six inches of rain overnight and more was in the forecast.
Forecasters predicted a diminished chance of new storms in many areas, but across the eastern half of the state, where rivers and creeks had risen and the ground was saturated, people still watched the sky.
In Rossville, northwest of Topeka, Dennis Hall was busy placing sandbags around his split-level ranch home.
"All we can do is wait," Hall said. "We just don't need any more rain."
In Dickinson County, authorities warned people living within 2 miles
of the Smoky Hill River between Solomon and Chapman to expect flooding Tuesday and Wednesday. Sandbagging began Monday.
Evacuations will become manda
tory if the river reaches 29 feet, said Elwood Mayor Lawrence Mays. An early prediction of a crest at 29.5 feet was scaled back because of Monday's lack of rain.

NATURAL DISASTER
Flooding wreaks havoc on Midwest towns

ASSOCIATED PRESS
AGENCY, Mo. — As residents in central Missouri prepared for flooding from rain-choked rivers, levees along the Missouri River gave way, flooding the tiny town of Big Lake on Tuesday.
Mark Sitherwood, presiding commissioner of Holt County, said five major levees along the Missouri River south of Big Lake broke Monday. The water from those breaks reached Big Lake, a town of about 300 residents in northwest Missouri, on Tuesday.
"The town and lake are completely under water," Sitherwood said.
"The town is a loss. At this time, we don't know, but it looks like that's what's going to happen."
Across northwest Missouri rivers and streams overran their banks. On Monday, Gov. Matt Blunt declared a state of emergency and signed an executive order authorizing the mobilization of Missouri National Guard troops. Voluntary evacuations were under way in several western Missouri counties.
No injuries were reported. Big Lake, which is located about two miles from the Missouri River, is about 35 miles northwest of St. Joseph.
"Once we've dealt with the entire flood across the state, we'll begin to evaluate the damage and find out what kind of assistance might be available to compensate or help people impacted by the damage," Blunt said Tuesday at a news conference in St. Joseph.
Most Big Lake residents evacuated Monday but a handful of residents were rescued by boat from their homes Tuesday, Sitherwood said.
The city of Craig was also being threatened north of Big Lake because of another levee break on the Big Tarkio River, Sitherwood said. And the rising water from the Big Lake
area was also threatening the town of Fortescue.
Meanwhile, St. Joseph was spared flooding when the Missouri River crested about four feet lower than had been predicted, said Matt Dux, meteorologist for the National Weather Service. More rain had been predicted for this week but when that didn't happen, water levels crested lower than predicted in feeder streams and the Missouri River, Dux said.
"We're very, very blessed," said Bill Brinton, emergency management director for Buchanan County. "The river didn't crest as high as it was supposed to, and all the leves held. We did about 70,000 sandbags that we didn't need."
But most residents evacuated Agency, a town of about 100 east of St. Joseph that is surrounded on three sides by the Platte River and was hit hard by the Flood of 1993, one of the most costly and devastating floods in U.S. history.
By midday Tuesday, a few Agency homes were partially submerged, as were nearby roads and a cemetery.
"It itt as bad as 1993," said Pauline Gibson, 71, who did not evacuate her Agency trailer home but had everything packed if she had to leave quickly. "But it's working on it. We don't want it like '93, but they say more rain is coming and that's not good."
Tom Hutsler, Parkville resident and business owner, had several trucks on hand Tuesday to move merchandise and belongings.
In Parkville, a town of about 4,000 along the Missouri River 10 miles north of Kansas City. 18 businesses were shuttered Tuesday after a mandatory evacuation was ordered for the section of town closest to the river.
Farther east, the Boone County Fire Protection District and the Columbia/Boone County Office of Emergency Management put out a call for volunteers to begin sandbaggging Tuesday along the Missouri River, beginning in Rocheport and moving south toward Huntsdale, McBaine and Hartsburg.
"One thing we learned in the flood of '93 is water is going to go where it wants to go, and sandbagging is fruitless," Hutsler said.
And in Jefferson City, officials began evacuating the municipal airport Tuesday as the capital began preparing for flooding expected to hit Wednesday or Thursday.
After floods in 1993 and 1995, Jefferson City raised the elevation of its riverside sewage treatment plant, and the federal government bought
out scores of homes on the north shore of the river. But proposals for a super levee never materialized, leaving the airport and remaining businesses vulnerable any time the river stage exceeds 30 feet.
Attorney Tom Rost was tending his vegetables Tuesday but feared they would be lost — along with the
sprouting crops of nearby farms.
"I think it's going to be serious," Rost said, offering free lettuce to passerboy.
The National Weather Service predicted that the river would crest at 34 feet in Boonville by Friday evening, or about 13 feet above flood stage.

Greensburg residents begin long cleanup effort
20-39
The streets of Greensburg, Kan. are a flutter of activity as cleanup crews and residents sift through the debris Tuesday, May 8, 2007. A mounstrous tornado killed nine people and destroyed more than 90 percent of the town Friday night.

BY JOHN HANNA ASSOCIATED PRESS
GREENSBURG — Amid the downed utility poles, stripped trees and rubble the massive tornado left behind, the county courthouse and the Southern Plains Co-op's grain elevator, the tallest building here, still stand.
With nine people dead and more than 90 percent of this south-central Kansas community destroyed, residents picked through pile after pile of debris Tuesday and talked about rebuilding. Although he had to sleep in a friend's pickup, Mayor Lonnie McCollum was talking about heartily about the future, envisioning a town that would look more like a new suburb outside a big city.
While outsiders wondered whether too little remains intact for that kind of comback, they also acknowledged Greensburg's status as the Kiowa County seat and a regional economic hub for area farmers make its survival plausible.
"I don't see this mess. I see what it's going to be," McCollum said, a sea of severed trees, crumpled vehicles and wrecked buildings behind him. "Who wouldn't want to live in a brand new town? Who wouldn't want to have a business in a whole new town?"
Still, McCollum couldn't predict when basic services such as sewer, water or electricity would be restored, and officials were trying to find a place for mobile homes sent by the Federal Emergency Management Agency.
Danny McLarty, the location manager for the Southern Plains Co-op, and his employees were working Tuesday to salvage what they could, clean the mess and count their losses. Although the grain elevator was still standing, all that was left of its business office was about half of its outer shell, its roof stripped off and a pile of wood and stone where part of the building once stood.
Posted signs said. "Construction under progress," and McLarty said he was keeping all 14 employees on the payroll.
Before the storm hit, Greensburg had been facing the problem of an aging and declining population, mirroring Midwestern trends. The 2000 Census said more than a quarter of its residents were 65 or older; its population peaked at nearly 2,000 in 1960 and has declined to about 1,400.
buy their supplies," McLarty said. "We will be here for them — that is what a farming community is all about."
"This is a farm community. The elevator has to be here. Farmers have to have a place to

For customer Clorene Smith, it was important because she fled her tornado-ravaged house without identification. But the small town bank knows her.
Greensburg State Bank set up two tents on the sidewalk outside the remains of its building so residents could do business.
"It is kind of nice I can write a check and get cash," she said.
DUCK KILLING
ASSOCIATED PRESS
WICHITA — The Humane Society of the United States is asking that a sixth-grader who stabbed three ducks to death be charged with animal cruelty.
The Wilber Middle School student allegedly used a pencil last week to kill a mother duck and two ducklings that had nested near the school.
The Humane Society said it did not want the 11-year-old to be jailed, but it wants to be sure he receives "the intervention crucial to preventing future recurrences of violence," said Mary Lou Randour, the group's professional outreach coordinator and a Maryland-based psychologist.
"A conviction of animal cruelty would not only convey to the student the serious nature of his alleged crime," Randour said, "but would also help ensure that he remains under psychological counseling and observation"
District Attorney Nola Foulston said Monday that her office was investigating the case.
"It is incumbent upon us to dig deeper, not only out of concern for the welfare of animals but for the welfare of our children," Foulston said.
An animal cruelty charge, she said, wasn't the only way to ensure the boy gets counseling or treatment.
The boy was suspended last Wednesday, and school officials said

a hearing would determine whether he would get to return to school. They say he admitted to classmates that he mutilated the ducks.
Foulston said the case could be filed as a "child in need of care" case, but that depended on what the investigation reveals about the student's actions, behavior and home life. Generally, child in need cases involve children abandoned, neglected or abused by a parent. "With these cases you need to look not only at the alleged act itself but at the underlying problems that may have led to that act," Foulston said.

16 killed in Baghdad suicide bombing
BY KIM GAMEL
ASSOCIATED PRESS
BAGHDAD — A suicide car bomber sent a fireball through a crowded market Tuesday in the Shite holy city of Kufa, killing at least 16 people and threatening to further stoke sectarian tensions in relatively peaceful areas south of Baghdad.
Kufa,100 miles south of Baghdad is a stronghold of the Mahdi Army militia, which is loyal to radical Shiite cleric Muqtada al-Sadr. U.S. officials have expressed fears that Sunni insurgents led by al-Qaida are carefully picking their targets to provoke retaliatory violence to derail efforts to stabilize the country.
The blast sent flames through a nearby two-story kebab restaurant, charring the interior. Angry residents demanded better protection and accused authorities of fortifying their own homes and offices at the expense of the public.
"They do not care about the fate of the poor. We demand real, effective security measures to protect
us", said 29-year-old Laith Hussein, who helped carrying some of the wounded to the hospital.
The predominantly Shite southern areas have seen a spike in violence and unrest, blamed in part on militants who have fled a security crackdown in Baghdad. The U.S-led offensive is intended to curb violence and allow the Shite-led government some breathing room to implement reforms, including proposals to empower minority Sunnis Arabs and help end the insurgency. There has been little evidence, though, of any movement toward those reforms.
Still, Sunni Vice President Tariq al-Hashemi appeared to back away from a threat to lead a walkout from the government.
"I can say that we can, God willing, build an ambitious future based on a real partnership and joint understanding. And I think it is very important to go ahead with the political project," al-Hashemi told reporters Monday after a late-night meeting with Prime Minister Nouri al-Malki, a Shite.
Al-Hashemi said the meeting
was an effort to "melt the ice."
Ali Baban, the Sunni planning minister, reaffirmed Tuesday that the Sunni bloc had no plans to quit the government.
Neither politician offered details about their meeting, but government spokesman Ali al-Dabbah announced that a parliamentary committee on amending the constitution was scheduled to present its recommendations on May 15 and should be given a chance to work.
"There should be a dialogue, not threats. No political endeavor can succeed with threats," al-Dabbagh said.
Late Tuesday, al-Hashemi's office also issued a statement that he, Kurdish President Jalal Talabani and Iraq's Shiite vice president Adel Abdul-Mahdi held talks. The agenda appeared to focus on al-Maliki's past pledges — including addressing Sunni Arab objections to parts of a constitution adopted in October 2005, disbanding militias and actively seeking national reconciliation.
At least 68 people were killed or found dead nationwide Tuesday.
more than half of them apparent victims of so-called sectarian death squads usually run by the Shiite militias. Twenty-five of the bullet-riddled bodies were found in Baghdad, all but five on the predominantly Sunni western side of the Tigris River where sectarian violence appears to be on the rise.
A roadside bomb also killed two U.S. soldiers and wounded another southeast of Baghdad, the military said.
Residents in Baqubad, a volatile city northeast of Baghdad, claimed that a U.S. helicopter opened fire on an elementary school, killing seven students and wounding three. U.S. spokesman Lt. Col. Christopher Garver said the military was investigating the reports.
"We do all we can to avoid civilian casualties. That's why we're going to look into this to see what happened," Garver said.
The attack in Kufa took place about 10 a.m. The car was packed with some 550 pounds of explosives when it blew up in a busy market area that also included a school and the mayor's office, police said.

Tomb of King Herod found in West Bank
Yaacow Sa'ar/ASSOCIATED PRESS
BY STEVE WEIZMAN ASSOCIATED PRESS
An aerial view of the hilltop compound of Herodium near the west Bank town of Hebron is pictured in this photo made available by the Government Press Office on Tuesday. An Israeli archaeologist has found the tomb of King Herod, the legendary builder of ancient Jerusalem and the Holy Land, at a hilltop compound south of the city, the Hebrew University announced.
HERODIUM, West Bank — Under a baking sun, pieces of limestone carved with borders of rosettes and geometrical designs lay in three excavated pits Tuesday — a desert site Israeli archaeologists say is the tomb of King Herod, who ruled the Holy Land when Christ was born.
The find, which could provide insights into one of the Bible's most reviled yet influential figures, includes hundreds of pieces of an ornate sarcophagus, but no bones and no inscription that would seal the identification.
Although the tomb was shattered and empty, leaders of the Israeli team that unearthed it said Tuesday they will dig on in the hope of finding jewelry, other artifacts or even the biblical monarch's remains.
Hebrew University archaeologist Ehud Netzer said he has been leading the search for Herod's tomb
at the king's winter palace in the Judean desert, in an Israeli-controlled part of the West Bank south of Jerusalem, for 35 years.
Last month, his team started unearthing limestone fragments, from which emerged the picture of an ornately carved sarcophagus with decorative urses of a type never before found in the Holy Land.
"It's a sarcophagus we don't just see anywhere," Netzer told reporters at the university. "It is something very special."
The complete sarcophagus would have been about nine feet long, the university said.
Herod was the Jewish proxy ruler of the Holy Land under imperial Roman occupation from 37 B.C. His most famous construction project was expanding the Jewish Second Temple in Jerusalem.
Remnants of his extensive building work in Jerusalem are still visible in Jerusalem's Old City, and he undertook major construction projects in Caesaria, Jericho, the hilltop fortress of Masada and else
where.
At the excavation site, on the steep, rocky slopes of a cone-shaped hill 2.230 feet high, Netzer's assistant, Yuakov Kalmar, said that an account of Herod's funeral by the
first-century historian Josephus Flavius left little doubt that it took place at Herodium. The newly discovered tomb was regal in its opulence.

Al-Qaida releases video of Algeria attacks
BY MAGGIE MICHAEL ASSOCIATED PRESS
CAIRO, Egypt — Al-Jazeera broadcast what it said was an al-Qaida video Tuesday purportedly showing one of the three suicide attacks in Algeria last month that
killed 33 people.
The brief video carried images of equipment and wires being assembled, followed by a large explosion.
The pan-Arab television network said the footage was from al-Qaida's branch for North Africa and that a longer segment would be aired later.
The network provided no details on how or when it had obtained the footage and it wasn't immediately possible to determine its authenticity. The video concluded with a bearded man said to be Abu Musab Abdulwadood — the leader of Algeri, main Islamic insurgency movement — calling on young Muslims to join his group and carry out suicide bombings.
"We carry the good news to our nation and our young people and tell them that the list of martyrs is long and is getting longer day after day!" the speaker said.

Public upset with presidential election
Michel Spindler/ASSOCIATED PRESS
It was one of the surprising subplots in Sarkozy's resounding election victory against Segolene Royal — and shows his vision of pro-market reforms and scaling back immigration appeals to a wide audience.
PARIS—Nicolas Sarkozy won the women's vote and fared well among blue-collar workers, even though his rival for the French presidency was a woman and a Socialist.
Riots continue in France
BY JAMEY KEATEN ASSOCIATED PRESS
Sarkozy's ability to attract votes from a broad spectrum of the public is an early indication he may be able to overcome his image as a polarizing force and achieve crucial popular support for pushing through his ambitious program of overhauling France's welfare system.
Riot police officers monitored the Place de la Bastille in Paris on Tuesday. The leader of France's defeated Socialists appealed for calm Tuesday after post-election violence left cars burned and store windows smashed. While the unrest has been small-scale, it sent a message to Nicolas Sarkozy: He may have won the presidency, but he has not won over the many French who consider him — and his free-market reforms and tough line on crime and immigration — frighteningly brutal.
Official figures showed Sarkozy won France's one-time industrial heartland in the north, which French media said had not voted for a rightist presidential candidate since Charles de Gaulle in 1965.
Sarkozy even tallied nearly 44 percent of the vote in the Seine-Saint-Denis region north of Paris, where a wave of rioting erupted in late 2005 while he was interior minister and infuriated many there by calling troublemakers "scum."
Right after his victory, angry youths burned cars and clashed with police in several cities. Police reported Monday that 730 cars were burned and at least 592 people detained overnight across the country, while some 78 officers were injured.
On Monday night, several hundred people massed for a second night at the Place de la Bastille in Paris, breaking windows in shops and starting street fires. Riot police dispersed them.
"The main attraction among workers were the security-immigration duo, which works, and the values of hard work: He put the emphasis on increasing purchasing power," said Frederic Dabi, a pollster with Ifop.
In the campaign, Sarkozy dared to attack the status quo with calls to do away with inheritance tax on small and medium estates and cut the number of public sector workers. He also evoked issues of national identity and immigration that were once the stomping ground of extrem right nationalist Jean-Marie Le Pen.
Perhaps most striking was the 52 percent of the women's vote he captured against 48 percent for Royal, which indicated the campaign transcended gender issues and became truly a choice between ideas — the tough-love message of Sarkozy against Royal's more nurturing vision.
Experts said Sarkozy was able to steal working-class votes from the left by playing up his tough cop image and by pounding away at the theme that he believes in rewarding hard work.
While Sarkozy found a formula to win an election, he faces a much steeper challenge implementing his vision of tax cuts and freer markets that promise to cut into the social protections many French hold so dear.
"Royal didn't gain any advantage with her argument that she was a mother of four. It had no effect," said Pierre Glacometti, director of the Ipsos agency. "Neither feminism nor machismo had its place."
He is certain to face resistance from unions to his plans to make the French work more and make it easier for companies to hire and fire.
The election left little time for celebrating. Legislative elections are slated for June 10 and 17, and Sarkozy's conservative UMP party needs a majority to keep his mandate for reforms. A win by the left would bring "cohabitation" — an awkward power-sharing with a leftrist prime minister — which would put a stop to his plans.

Actor arrested for possessing methamphetamine
Actor Tom Sizemore arrives at the HBO post-Emmy Awards party in West Hollywood, Calif., on Aug. 27, 2006. Sizemore, still on probation for a drug rap, was arrested Tuesday for investigation of methamethatamine he as sat in a car outside a Bakersfield, Calif., hotel.
ASSOCIATED PRESS
BAKERSFIELD, Calif. — Tom Sizemore, on probation for a drug rap, was arrested Tuesday for investigation of possessing methamphetamine as he sat in a car outside a Bakersfield hotel.
The 45-year-old actor, of Calabasas, was arrested after drugs were found in his car outside the Four Points Sheraton hotel, said police Detective Greg Terry.
Officers were called to the hotel at about 7:30 a.m. by a report that a man had challenged an employee to fight while trying to check in, Terry said.
The man, believed to be an associate of Sizemore's, had gotten into a dispute over whether he had a reservation, the detective said.
Jason Salcido, 33, of Whittier, was found to be on parole, and officers found he was carrying a "narcotic smoking pipe," Terry said.
Officers learned that he and Sizemore were together and saw Sizemore sitting in a 2004 Ford Mustang in the hotel parking lot.
Sizemore was arrested and booked at the Kern County Jail for investigation of possession of methamphetamine, being under the influence of a controlled substance and possession of narcotic paraphernalia, the detective said.
Calls to representatives of Sizemore, who appeared in the movies "Saving Private Ryan" and "Black Hawk Down," weren't immediately returned.
After tearfully acknowledging he used drugs,he was given three years' probation and ordered to submit to weekly drug tests.
The actor was convicted of methamphetamine possession in October 2004. His probation was revoked the next year after he

acknowledged using a prosthetic device to fake a drug test and failing to be checked for drugs every three days.
Probation was later reinstated but Sizemore faced another parole revocation and prison time after testing positive for drug use in January 2006.

In a statement sent to HBO staff members and released publicly Tuesday, Albrecht said he had been a "sober member" of Alcoholics Anonymous for 13 years.
"Two years ago, I decided that I could handle drinking again. Clearly, I was wrong. Given that truth, I have committed myself to sobriety. I intend to take a temporary leave of absence from HBO effective today, in order to go back to working with AA."

Hilton re-hires publicist who OK'd her to drive
ASSOCIATED PRESS
LOS ANGELES — The many moods of Paris Hilton shifted again when the jail-bound socialite rehired the publicist she blamed for her 45-day sentence.
Elliot Mintz confirmed to The Associated Press on Tuesday that he is again representing the 26-year-old socialite, who was ordered to report to county jail by June 5 for violating the terms of her probation in an alcohol-related reckless driving case.
Mintz, 62, wouldn't elaborate on why he reunited with Hilton. The publicist, whose clients have included John Lennon and Bob Dylan, issued a statement Sunday night that he and Hilton had parted ways over an apparent "misunderstanding she received from me regarding the terms of her probation."
In a court appearance Friday, Hilton told the judge Mintz informed her it was all right to drive on a suspended license for work obligations. Mintz also testified Hilton believed she was allowed to drive. The judge called Mintz's testimony worthless.
Hilton — star of El network's reality show "The Simple Life" — has called the sentence unfair.
and her fans have posted a petition on the Internet urging Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger to pardon her.
"I feel that I was treated unfairly and that the sentence is both cruel and unwarranted and I don't deserve this." Hilton told photographers assembled outside her home Saturday.
In an interview for the June issue of Harper's Bazaar, Hilton says: "I get in more trouble just because of who I am. The cops do it all the time. They'll just pull me over to hit on me."
"It's really annoying. They're like, 'What's your phone number? Want to go to dinner?' They won't even give me a ticket. They just pull me over, and the paparazzi, of course, take a picture. All the time. I have so many cops' business cards."
The governor's office hasn't reviewed the petition but has received individual e-mails from constituents both for and against a gubernatorial pardon, Schwarzenegger spokesman Aaron McLear said Tuesday.
"We'll treat this as we would any other case of this nature, but it would be premature for the governor to get involved until the individual has exhausted his or her judicial remedies," McLear said.

LAWSUIT
Country star Tucker sued over dog bite
Danielle D. Hobbs alleges in a lawsuit filed last week that the dog ran from a bedroom at Tucker's home and began biting her without any warning.
Hobbs said she was attacked May 2, 2006, by a dog named Bella while she was at Tucker's home near Nashville to give her a manicure.
NASHVILLE, Tenn. — A manicurist who claims she was attacked by country singer Tanya Tucker's dog is suing the singer for $300,000.
Hobbs said she told the singer's assistant that she was afraid of the dogs and asked that they be restrained, but she claims the assistant told her the dogs were "just babies" and that "they will not hurt you"
She said she suffered painful and disfiguring scars on her leg.
She said Tucker has at least eight dogs, and several of them growled and barked at her during two previous visits to the home.
"This lawsuit comes as a total surprise and has been filed without merit." Tucker's publicist, Kirt Webster, said Tuesday.
Tucker's hits include "Delta
Dawn" and "San Antonio Stroll."

》 OUR VIEW
Use year to study new candidates
In theory, the recent Presidential debates of each party were supposed to reveal the frontrunners and agendas of the leading candidates. In practice, the debates revealed little more than a dearth of frontrunners, a stale repackaging of tired ideas and a general media lamentation about the perceived lack of choice candidates.
The problems of the Democrats are comparatively minor; any of the three poll-leading candidates would probably represent the party well — or at least adequately
in the general election. The unifying theme of the moment is frustrated vitriol directed at President Bush, which temporarily saves the candidates from tearing one another down.
T he Republicans, however, have a whole host of problems. Mitt Romney per-
plexingly raises millions while failing to make an impact in polls. John McCain, in an apparently desperate effort to recapture his "straight talk" magic of 2000, sounds and looks increasingly unhinged. Rudy Giuliani, eager to overcome his Northeast stigma, seems anxious to attack any threat, tangible or perceived. Add a supporting cast from the lunatic fringes of the party and it is no wonder that many Republican voters are sweating a bit.
Mass media outlets, who already seem bored with the present candidates — or at least their perpetual coverage of such have taken to endlessly speculating on the potential of undeclared candidates. Chief among
them are the avuncular Fred Thompson, who speaks of the presidency with a sort of cavalier nonchalance, as if the office is merely a tempting promotion from NBC. Cerebral envirocrusader Al Gore continues to attract attention, as does New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg, who rules his fiefdom with radical efficiency.
George Santayana once famously observed that Americans don't solve problems, they leave them behind. And while we have always been a

In an age of media packaging, we seem to want nothing less than a fully functional president two years before the election. This is not only unlikely, but it is in contrast to the developmental framework of the primary system. We would be wise to spend the next 12 months investigating candidates for ourselves, then forming conclusions based on what we want from a president, not what the nearest or most recently surging candidate is offering us.

Sensitive AIDS policy needed
Last Friday, Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva broke the patent of the anti-AIDS drug efavirenz. Although there are many things in the scandal-plagied Lula administration that deserve criticism, this action should be commended as a noble and brave measure that is part of a necessary endeavor: to have a humane AIDS policy.
Lula issued a compulsory license for efavirenz, which means that Brazil can now manufacture or buy generic versions of the drug while paying a small royalty to Merck, the drug's manufacturer. The measure, although controversial, is allowed by the World Trade Organization in certain cases.
The Brazilian government decided to break the patient after negotiations with Merck failed to reduce the price of the drug to a satisfactory amount.
Brazil is an excellent example of how government intervention can greatly benefit the construction of better health policies. The Brazilian AIDS policy is successful and used as a model for several countries across the world. By threatening to break their patents, the Brazilian government was able to significantly decrease the prices of several AIDS drugs.
CARLTON
By aggressively pursuing these price reductions, the Brazilian government is able to provide free and universal access to antiretroviral drugs. Drug cocktails are very expensive, and there is no way that the poorer sections of society could have access to them without government help.
BY PATRICK LUIZ SULLIVAN
DE OLIVEIRA
KANSAN COLUMNIST
OPINION@KANSAN.COM
Intellectual rights activists may criticize this measure; however, there is a big difference between intellectual rights and a monopoly of knowledge. Knowledge is only useful when it is constructive for society. A monopoly of knowledge deprives people of the benefits of intellectual achievements.
The pharmaceutical industry's search for even higher profits cannot interfere with a persons, a people's or a nation's health. At what point is it wrong to gain ridiculous profits from other people's suffering? When is it ever right to sentence a person to death because of "intellectual rights?"
Some may argue that the break of patents will cause a decrease of investment in drug research. If that is so, then there is something extremely wrong with the current pharmaceutical system. Perhaps private investments fueled by selfish impulses are not the best way to go about things.
There are other measures, however, that make Brazil's AIDS policy one of the best in the world. The government has adopted a realist approach, recognizing that there is no way to prevent people from having sex.
There have been significant investments on the promotion of condom use, and sexual education in schools is comprehensive. Throughout the year, and especially during Carnaval, it is common to see billboards featuring government sponsored condom advertisements — and government officials and NGO's freely distribute prophylactics.
In addition, the Brazilian government refused to stigmatize prostitution, thus renouncing a $48 million grant from the U.S., and decided instead to work with prostitutes to help prevent the spread of AIDS. This cooperation with prostitutes is indispensable because they are a high-risk group.
An AIDS policy needs to be sensitive and adaptable to cultural differences; there is no one-size-fits-all model; however, there is lot to be learned from the Brazilian model. The prioritizations of health before profits and of realism before attempts to impose moral values are essential to combat this epidemic. Brazil and the U.S. have many similarities. Sex is predominant in both countries' cultures, and even though a cultural revolution is possible, by the time it is finished AIDS will have caused too much damage. Meanwhile, the best way to deal with the epidemic is to accept and deal with the realities of our culture, and making healthcare a priority.

GUEST COMMENTARY
Dining out? Follow a list of common courtesies to get the best out of a night on the town
As both a college student and somebody who has worked in the restaurant Lusiness for a number of years I have noticed that a vast majority of college students and the public at large lack the wherewithal and manners required to get the most from a night on the town. Most of the offenses I observe are things that our mothers probably taught us not to do, but when living in a city where the main demographic is a young crowd the basics of etiquette seem to be lost. I've come up with a basic guide on how to conduct oneself when interacting with service staff at bars and restaurants.
At the host desk: When you walk into a restaurant and are confronted with a friendly "hello" from the host or hostess it's completely unacceptable to just grunt and utter something to the effect of "table for four" or even worse, say nothing at all. Exchanging brief and friendly banter with the host staff never hurt anyone. While the host is getting information about your party it's not necessary to lean over the desk. When I host, I am mortified by how often I'm literally being crushed against my desk. Standing on a hosts' toes does not get you a table any more quickly.
If there is a wait for a table, be prepared to wait and accept the harsh reality that the host is giving you an educated guess about when you will be sat. Don't scoff at or
At the bar or table: When you walk up to the bar to order a drink make sure that your money is out, that you have a smile — or at least a pleasant look on your face — and that you know what you want. Few things are more irritating to a busy bartender than a patron flailing their arms about from across the bar or restaurant like their ass is
castigate the host because the wait has exceeded the estimate. If your wait has gone beyond a reasonable length of time it's acceptable to politely speak with the manager or host and try to resolve the situation. If you are in a hurry or have a tight schedule you ought to go to an establishment that takes reservations or offers call-ahead seating.
on fire then only for the patron to have no idea what they want when the bartender arrives to assist them. Know how to pronounce what you are ordering. It is not Harp's or Miller's Lite. I don't even want to get started on the can of worms that is Bacardi Limon, but to clear up any confusion it is pronounced "L-MOAN" and not "Lymon". Lymon is the name of somebody's hillbilly cousin from Alabama and not a premium flavored rum.
Tipping: Having a mastery of the art of tipping is absolutely essential. The average hourly pay of a server is about $2.15 an hour and is almost entirely supplemented by tips. These days 15 percent is kind of like the
》 TALK TO US
new 12 percent. Eighteen to 20 percent is acceptable and will ensure that you will receive prompt, polite service. Servers and bartenders remember both good and bad tippers. Your service will be better and faster not only because you aren't a tight wad, but also because you are easygoing and fun to wait on. Keep in mind too that a restaurant staff will snicker and berate you in the kitchen for being a lousy tipper. Don't be that person.

Memorial honors victim
Chabad, Hillel remember Virginia Tech professor Librescu
BY TYLER HARBERT
Professor Liviu Librescu, a Holocaust survivor who tried to barricade the door to his classroom to save student lives during the Virginia Tech massacre, was killed on the day after national Holocaust Remembrance day.
To honor the professor's life and commemorate his heroic deed, students in Chabad and KU Hillel held a discussion Tuesday night in the Kansas Union featuring a PowerPoint presentation about Libresco.
Marni Green, Buffalo Grove, Ill., sophomore and Chabad member, created the PowerPoint tribute because she wanted to remember the Virginia Tech victims and especially honor Librescu.
"I wish I would have met him in person," Green said. "He seemed like such a wonderful man."
Lou Frydman, associate professor emeritus of social welfare, took part in the tribute by speaking about his experiences as a Holocaust survivor.
Frydman, who was 12 years old
when he was taken to the first of three different concentration camps during the Holocaust, said he came from an extended family of more than 40 members. But on the first day of his capture, that number dropped to only two: just him and his brother.
Although he laughed and joked throughout his questions and answers Tuesday night, Frydman said that wasn't the case during his two-year time in the camps.
"There was no humor in those camps at any level," he said.
He had been liberated from the Dachau concentration camp at the end of the European fight during World War II and said he was fortunate his struggle didn't leave him with nightmares or other disorders after the war.
He said surviving the Holocaust set him up for a life full of possibilities and without barriers. He said the concentration camps also made him able to size up situations almost immediately, and he also picked up the Yiddish language quickly.
"It was a matter of survival." Frydman said.
Green and Caitlin Tew, Allen, Texas, sophomore and Chabad member, also helped organize a Good Deed Dedication in memory of the Virginia Tech victims. Tew said any student on campus could promise to do a "Mitzvah," which is a good deed in Hebrew, write the deed on a postcard and attach it to a large poster board in memory of the victims.
Green said the poster board would be kept on a wall in the Chabad House, 1201 W. 19th St., as a permanent memorial.
She said she hadn't committed to a deed yet, but was considering either saying hello to a random stranger or reaching out to somebody who was lonely. Students can get involved in the project by going to www.jewishku.com/vtech.

The sailing vessel crowded with Haitian migrants overtured in moonlit waters a half-mile from shore in shark-infested waters. Haitian migrants claim a Turks and Caicos naval vessel rammed their crowded sailboat twice before it capsized last week, killing dozens of people, a senior Haitian official said on Tuesday.
PORT-AU-PRINCE, Haiti — Haitian migrants claim a Turks and Caicos naval vessel rammed their crowded sailboat twice before it capsized last week, killing more than 60 people, a senior Haitian official said Tuesday.
Jeanne Bernard Pierre, the director-general of Haiti's National Migration Office, said the migrants' account has not been confirmed but Haiti would consider it "criminal" if found true.
"The survivors say the accident wasn't an accident, it was provoked. They say they were hit twice by a coast guard boat from the Turks and Caicos," Pierre told The Associated Press by telephone from the Turks and Caicos Islands, where she was meeting with survivors at a detention center.
Turks and Caicos Police Inspector Hilton Duncan declined to comment on claims the migrants boat was rammed, saying the sinking is under investigation.
Earlier Tuesday, the governor the British Caribbean territory, Richard Tauwhare, told reporters the vessel capsized while it was being towed by a police boat in rough seas, contradicting earlier claims by local officials that police arrived only after the boat capsized.
Meanwhile, the death toll rose to 61 from Friday's pre-dawn capsizing of the migrant-laden sailboat off the Turks and Caicos, after more bodies were found drifting in the Atlantic Ocean, the government of the British Caribbean territory said.
Some of those who died were mutilated by sharks. More than a dozen migrants were still missing and presumed dead.
The 78 survivors from the estimated 160 migrants aboard the boat were being held in the Turks and Caicos, about 125 miles north of Haiti, until authorities could repatriate them.
Pierre said the survivors told her they received no warning before being hit, and that the Turks and Caicos vessel threw them a line and tried towring them in before the boat capsized.
"We would think that would be criminal if it really happened that way. We have to wait for the results of the investigation, before pronouncing (judgment) ourselves," she said.
The U.S. Coast Guard said in a press statement Friday its officials were notified by Turks and Caicos police at 5 a.m. that the migrant boat capsized while being towed by a police vessel at 4:20 a.m. But Turks and Caicos officials later denied the report.
Pierre said she met with Tauwhare on Tuesday and was told that an investigation would take three weeks.
Asked to provide one of the migrants for an interview, Pierre gave the phone to a man who identified himself as Jean-Vanel Moncent, 21. Moncent began describing the ordeal when the call was cut off. Reached on the phone again, Pierre said she had been informed that migrants were not allowed to speak to the media.

It helped Bell find a name for the fugitive wallaby: Tarmac.
Bell said it was the first escape for any of the animals being shipped to the Roo Ranch.
"It is a good reminder for people who are transporting live cargo to check their kennels and make sure they're in operating order," she said.
TOPEKA — The Kansas Board of Education on Tuesday repealed sex education policies enacted last year, the latest move by the moderate majority to undo efforts by conservatives when they dominated the board.
BY CARL MANNING ASSOCIATED PRESS
The Bell family plans to open the Roo Ranch, which has about 50 kangaroos and wallabies, on Memorial Day weekend. It would join other animal-oriented attractions in the Black Hills such as Bear Country USA, Reptile Gardens and Trout Haven.
Board repeals sex education policies

One rescinded policy recommended that schools stress abstinence until marriage, while the other urged school districts to get parental permission before students could attend human sexuality classes.

Wallaby escapes during flight Marsupial has few minutes of freedom during layover
SIOUX FALLS, S.D. — A wallaby is settling into a new home in the Black Hills after getting out of its kennel during a flight change in Salt Lake City.
The 5-pound. 7-month-old male Australian marsupial escaped Thursday but had only a few minutes of freedom.
BY CARSON WALKER ASSOCIATED PRESS
Roxy Bell, whose family owns The Roo Ranch near Deadwood, said vibration during the flight likely loosened buckles on the side of the kennel.
Airport workers caught the young wallaby within five minutes after it hopped across the tarmac, said Marissa Snow, a spokeswoman for SkyWest Airlines, based in St. George, Utah.
The wallaby - a smaller, stock
ier version of a kangaroo — did not kick its way out of the kennel, she said.
In fact, a young female wallaby in the same cage stayed put.
"I just don't want them to get a bad reputation. You know, 'Mean kangaroo gets out,'" Bell said. "They're not mean. They're very tame."
The pair arrived in Rapid City late Thursday, Bell said.
This photo provided by Roxy Bell shows a 5-pound, 7-month-old albino wallaby on Tuesday in Deadwood, S.D. His owners at The Roo Banch named him Tarmac because he escaped from his cage Thursday for a few minutes while being transferred to a different airplane at the Salt Lake City airport.
On a 6-3 vote, the board replaced the policies with one that recommends "abstinence plus" sex education programs and leaves it up to the 296 school
But conservative member Kathy Martin, of Clay Center, said most parents want the standards enacted last year. Wagnon said the new standards take effect immediately.
"Abstinence until marriage is the best message we can give our children," Martin said.
districts to decide whether to get parental permission.
"It's a matter of emphasis," said chairman Bill Wagnon, of Topeka.
Wagnon said the goal was "to describe the curriculum standards in terms of 'it's more than just simply an encouragement of abstinence', but we want a balance and comprehensive educational program about sex."
Wagnon said he didn't view the changes as a repudiation of what the conservative majority did.
She said the old standards
"emphasized self-control over birth control," and the new standards "fail to give a true picture."
"It's a matter of reflecting the current board view on how these things should be done," he said.
It was the second major change for the 6-4 moderate bloc since taking control in January. Wagnon said the final major change could come Wednesday if the board hires a new education commissioner to replace Bob Corkins, hired by conservatives in 2005. His hiring touched off criticism because he had no experience as a school administrator, and he resigned in November after the new board was elected.

Henrickson has Kansas on right track, despite record
BY ASHER FUSCO
On the surface, the numbers do not match up. Three seasons, only 14 conference victories, one postseason appearance and one lucrative contract extension.
After three losing campaigns, the Kansas Athletics Department reportedly agreed last month to extend the contract of women's basketball coach Bonnie Henrickson. She was already one of the highest-paid women's coaches in the Big 12 Conference, but Henrickson's new deal is rumored to include a
pay raise.
The casual onlooker might see failure in an overall record of 40 victories and 49 losses during the coach's tenure at Kansas, but a glance at the record books reveals Henrickson's only postseason appearance resulted in a quick second-round exit from the 2006 WNIT.

But listening to the post-game comments of the layhawks' opponents this season screams of the progress Kansas has made under the coach.
"Kansas has a good young group," Bavior coach Kim Mulkay said after
escaping Allen Fieldhouse with a narrow seven-point victory. "They play very hard."
"They are so aggressive on defense," Nebraska guard Kiera Hardy said one week later. "We had to earn every bucket."
"They were gutsy," Kansas State coach Deb Patterson said after being upset by Kansas. "The difference was the young freshmen."
Kansas women's basketball is on the right track and its opponents can attest to that.

edition.
It came down to the final two. Grabbing second place was the duo of men's basketball coach Bill Self and Karina Smirnoff. Self used his charm and footwork to win over America.
I really got into the show last season when ex-Cowboys running back Emmitt Smith defeated Mario Lopez from "Saved by the Bell," reigniting my fiery hatred of the Dallas Cowboys.
I've found that "Dancing with the Stars" is my one guilty pleasure. I remember making fun of the show when it first aired, but then my pride for some of the show's sports figures kicked it. I got hooked.
.
The sports figures on this show are what make it successful. It's also what gave me the idea for Dancing with the Stars of Kansas Athletics.
Can you imagine a show where the famous figures in Kansas athletics dress in their finest and flashiest rhinestones and leather and dance competitively? Who would win this competition? I've thought about it and I know exactly how it would play out...
Eliminated in fourth place was football coach Mark Mangino. Judge Bruno Tonioli called Mangino's fox trot a "travesty," and said his partner Kym Johnson looked like she was herding sheep instead of dancing as she followed him across the floor.
Bruno said Self and Smirnoff's samba was spicy and passionate; however he ripped the group's Ramba.
Collins regained his composure during the waltz and won over judge Carrie Ann Inaba with his fancy footwork and cunning looks into the camera. However, the sight of Burke flying head-over-feet into the drum set was too much for viewers as Collins was voted off with the lowest rating in show history.
Judge Len Goodman said that Mangino used too much razzle-dazzle when doing his leg kicks and that he should have stuck to the basics. Ultimately, fans did not like Mangino's diamond encrusted cane and top hat so he was sent packing.

Basketball player Sherron Collins got the boot after his sketchy back-to-back tango and waltz with his flashy partner, Cheryl Burke. Collins' demise came when he did an illegal lift and accidentally kicked Burke into the live band. This mishap put Collins and Burke in third place.
"No one should ever be kicked in the face when doing a high-step," Bruno yelled at Smirnoff, who caught Self in the chin with her stiletto.
With a landslide first-place victory was the team of women's basketball coach Bonnie Henrickson and Maksim Chmerkovskiy. All the judges praised Henrickson's tight movement and elegant dips.

weather to see if we have to practice inside, but we've never had anything like this when we've had to completely go to a different place," she said.
Taking the extra time to get to and from practice added to the difficulty of the situation. Senior rower Whitney Fasbender said the team was already feeling crunched to be out of town the weekend before finals.
"It's a little inconvenient," she said.
But when the team hits the water, it feels like any other practice. Naii said.
"When we get to practice, everything goes back to normal again in the boat," she said. "Everything seems to work itself out."

hitting a solid .325. Woodbury went 2-for-4, including a three-run home run, run against Kansas in March.
The Evansville victory capped off a strong offensive burst for Missouri State, while the Bears didn't win a game in 29 days until Sunday they've tagged 19 extra base hits in their last five contests for a .304 team average.
By the weekend, Kansas will be just one game down with four to go when Chicago State rolls in to Hoglund Ballpark. The four-game set against the Cougars, which includes a doubleheader on Saturday, starts Friday at 7 p.m.
"For us right now we need to play well this week," Price said. "Get back to .500 this week and try to get the series from Nebraska to salvage the season."
The weekend may or may not feature the Jayhawks' usual Saturday night starting pitcher, sophomore lefty Nick Czyz. He tossed the shortest outing of the season last Saturday against K-State, surrendering four runs in a 2/3-inning appearance.
After he missed a start at Texas Tech not quite three weeks ago because of a sore pitching arm, Price isn't taking any chances.
"Because we've all watched him pitch all year and that isn't the same guy we've seen all season," Price said.
"It is the time of the year when guys are starting to feel beat up at the end of the season, but at the same time we need to make sure he's OK."
At the plate, the Jayhawks were able to count on outfielders Kyle Murphy and John Allman, along with sophomore catcher Buck Afenir again last weekend. Picking his team up, Afenir's two-run double on Saturday against the Wildcats accounted for half of Kansas' runs. Murphy and Allman each hit in both games against the Wildcats, but are now the only starters with an average of more than 300.
Nevertheless, Afenir gave credit to his coach for keeping the teams' head up and keeping them focused and confident for what lies ahead.

We're trying to be positive and let our players play through it."

Escalating salaries, exposure and pressure have awoken even the sleepiest of reminiscent old timers to what's happening today in our professional sports.
It's only natural to blame the players and teams for this business explosion. They're the ones rolling in all that money, after all.

Now, athletes look at and treat their bodies like the million-dollar machines they are. It's all a side effect of so much importance and money being placed on people playing sports.

Henrickson left a successful Virginia Tech program to take the reigns at Kansas in 2004. The previous season the Jayhawks won only two conference games and suffered through the late-season retirement of coach Marian Washington.
In her first season at Kansas, Henrickson brought in a small recruiting class that included now senior forwards Jamie Boyd and Taylor McIntosh. McIntosh found a spot in the starting lineup right away and has developed into an above-average rebounder and defender.
Henrickson landed guard Shaquina Mosley from Central Arizona Community College the next season. By the end of her career at Kansas, the soon-to-be graduated Mosley established herself as one of the most exciting and versatile players in the Big 12.
Heading into the 2006-2007
season expectations were low. The team lost its three best players to graduation and would rely on contributions from a seven-player freshman class.
The success of the incoming class was a testament to Henrickson's skill as a motivator and coach. Forward Danielle McCray shed 20 pounds and became one of the team's best scorers. Guards Sade Morris and Kelly Kohn fought through bouts of inconsistency and helped the team defeat heavily favored Oklahoma State in the first round of the Big 12 Tournament.
Henrickson recently took the next step to solidify the program: securing commitments from three highly regarded prospects. Center Krysten Boogaard, forward Nicollette Smith and guard Chakeitha Weldon should each fill a distinct need on the young team.
College coaches are constantly judged on the quality and potential impact of their recruiting classes. If the new contract is any indication, Henrickson's superiors think she has earned a passing grade.
Boogaard could give Kansas the post presence it has lacked since the departure of All-Big 12 Conference center Crystal Kemp. Smith provides an outside shooting touch that could spread opposing defenses to give McIntosh and McCray scoring opportunities. Henrickson said Weldon possessed "Shaq Mosley-like athleticism."

Manager calls for replay
Rockie's Hurdle pushing for new ways to review calls
BY R.B. FALLSTROM ASSOCIATED PRESS
ST. LOUIS — Colorado Rockies manager Clint Hurdle wants Major League Baseball to take another look at instant replay.
Twice in three games, Hurdle contends, wrong calls by umpires cost the Rockies home runs. He spoke the MLB office Tuesday to voice his concern.
"It's a very difficult call and my point of contention is it either is or is not a home run," Hurdle said. "I don't think that's an area where the umpires' discretion should be involved."

"They make fewer mistakes than managers do and pitchers hanging breaking balls and hitters popping up balls down the middle."

"You can't lose home runs," Hurdle said. "When they're hit, they need to be a homer. That's it, that's the bottom line."
On Monday night, what appeared to be a ninth-inning, goahead homer by Colorado's Troy Tulowitzki was instead ruled a double by second base umpire Bob Davidson, who said the ball went off the top of the wall in left-center field.

human element on balls and strikes and plays at first," he said. "That's the hard question, where do you draw the line? But to say you don't draw it anywhere, I'm not so sure that's the right answer."
Hurdle said he's in favor of a system where challenges are limited to game-changing plays.
On Monday night at Yankee Stadium, the Seattle Mariners benefited from a missed call to beat New York 3-2. Pinch-runner Willie Bloomquist looked out on a steal attempt in the eighth innning, but was called safe by umpire Gerry
Davis and wound up scoring the tying run.
"We'll take it." Bloomquist said. "It's just a good thing there's no instant replay in baseball."
After seeing a replay, Davis admitted he missed the call.
"We're all human." Yankees manager Joe Torre said Tuesday.
Torre, however, was not sure about adding replay.
Cardinals manager Tony La Russa said he couldn't tell whether Tulowitzki's drive cleared the fence.
"How much longer you want this game to go on?" he said. "There's a difference in getting your money's worth and being able to get up in the morning."
"They had a meeting, nobody had a better view, the guy scored anyway, so what's the issue?" La Russa said.
La Russa is not in favor of instant replay.
"I think the umpires do a good job," he said. "They make fewer mistakes than managers do and pitchers hanging breaking balls and hitters popping up balls down the middle."
The Rockies ended up winning both of the games in question.
"When you have everybody in the ballpark saying it's a horner it's kind of tough to believe it's a double," Tulowitzki said. "Then again they're on my team, so I was a little confused."
"Since I scored and we won, it kind of evens things out a little bit," he said.

St. Louis Cardinals' Adam Wainwright, left, pitches to Chicago Cubs' Aramis Ramirez, lower right, in the first inning of their baseball game Saturday, April 28, 2007, at Busch Stadium in St. Louis. Wainwright has a 2-2 record his season.
Wainwright struggling to adapt World Series hero experiencing growing pains as starter
BY R.B. FALLSTROM ASSOCIATED PRESS
ST. LOUIS — Big-game pressure is nothing for Adam Wainwright, whose dramatic strikeouts accounted for the final outs in the World Series and NL championship series.
But his arm is still getting used to the work load after moving from the St. Louis Cardinals' bull-
"Throwing a baseball, it's the most unnatural thing to do in sports," Wainwright said. "It's just the wear and tear through 32 innings in spring training and now.
Wainwright won his last outing by battling for six innings with less than his best stuff, and has complained of soreness and a dead arm feeling in the early going.
According to the team's medical staff, what Wainwright has been going through is normal. Dr. George Paletta, the team physician, said Wainwright has also complained of back and leg soreness, but no specific problems.
"I think it's mainly just been an issue of stamina and him getting accustomed to being in the rotation." Paletta said. "He's had no X-rays, no studies, nothing."
"I don't want to make a big thing of it, it's just something that grabs you and you've got to take care of it."
"I Think it's mainly just been an issue of stamina and him getting accustomed to being in the rotation."
GEORGE PALETTA Cardinal's team physician
Wainwright served as a setup
man most of last year, his first full year in the major leagues,before stepping up as the closer when Jason Isringhausen under went hip surgery in September. In
the postseason he was 1-0 with four saves and worked 9/2 3 scoreless innings, freezing the New York Mets' Carlos Beltran for a called third strike in Game 7 of the NLCS and then fanning Brandon Inge of the Detroit Tigers in the Cardinals' Game 5 World Series clincher.
In spring training he had a minuscule 1.10 ERA, the first indication that the conversion would be a snap.
"It was easy because I was making it a lot easier for myself," Wainwright said. "I wasn't walking people and I was letting them hit
He got back with the plan in a 3-2 victory over the Astros on Friday, helping the Cardinals stop a five-game losing streak. The start carried extra motivation for St. Louis, which won for the first time in four games since the death of reliever Josh Hancock and also halted a five-game losing streak.
ground balls and getting them out as fast as possible"
Wainwright abandoned that philosophy for a few of his early-season starts, trying to overpower the hitters instead. In three starts after winning at Houston in his first major league start, he was 0-2 and allowed 17 earned runs and 27 hits in 15 2-3 innings.
"I wanted to at least put a solid outing out there," Wainwright said. "I'd been scrambling around a little bit and I wanted to at least turn out something to make him proud a little bit."
"He made more good pitches, and he's capable of pitching a game where he makes all good pitches," manager Tony La Russa said after his last start. "He's very special."
The early ups and downs have done nothing to diminish the promise of a pitcher the Cardinals acquired along with Jason Marquis in a deal for J.D. Drew in 2003.
Looper, a setup man last year and a former closer, has been more successful in the early going, leading a staff minus ace Chris Carpenter with a 4.2 record and a 2.66 ERA.

Kansas City Royals pitcher Zack Greinke throws during the first inning of a baseball game with the Detroit Tigers Sunday in Kansas City. Mo. Greinke gave up three two-run home runs in the second inning.
Royals demote Greinke to bullpen Struggling pitcher moved out of starting rotation
ASSOCIATED PRESS
KANSAS CITY. Mo. — Zack Greinke, who gave up three two-run homers in one inning Sunday in a loss to Detroit, has been dropped from the Kansas City Royals rotation and will work out of the bullpen.
Greinke, who left the club in spring training 2005 and received treatment for social anxiety, is 1-4 with a 5.71 ERA in seven starts. Opponents are hitting .338 against him.
"I just hope he can regain some confidence," Royals manager Buddy Bell said Tuesday. "He's hard to read. He's pitched away from contact at times and pitched behind in the
count. Sometimes, I can tell he's just not as comfortable as he needs to be.
That is basically why we're doing it."
bullpen."
Greinke was the sixth overall pick in the 2002 draft and he made his major league debut in 2004 at age 20. He led the American League with 17 losses in 2005.
Bell said he did not believe putting Greinke in the bullpen would hinder his development.
"I personally feel like he's going to end up starting at some point," Bell said. "Whether that's this year, next year or whenever, I don't know that. I think he's got too much ability, too many pitches that he can throw for strikes for him not to be in the rotation. I think you're always going to be tempted to put him in the rotation because of his stuff, but right now we just think its best for him and the team that he's in the
"He needs to be up here," Bell said. "There's not a whole lot more he can do down there. In saying that, we talk about all the pitches he can throw with command. There's a part of me that says maybe it wouldn't be such a bad idea to go down and throw innings, but right now I think it's better he learn up here and get the experience up here."
While Bell did not say who would take Greinke's spot in the rotation, the Royals have two right-handers, Scott Elarton and Luke Hudson, who are coming off shoulder injuries and have been rehabbing in the minors.

WOMEN'S BASKETBALL UMSL hires Curliss-Taylor as coach for 2007-2008
ST. LOUIS — The University of Missouri-St. Louis said Tuesday that Lisa Curliss-Taylor has been hired as the next women's basketball coach.
She comes to the school from East Texas Baptist University, an NCAA Division III school, where she served as head coach for the past four years. She had a 57-48 record during her career there, including a 40-14 record the past two seasons.
Curliss-Taylor served as an assistant coach at Division II Washburn University for two seasons, prior to her time at East Texas Baptist University.
There, the team was 53-11 in those seasons.
Curliss-Taylor, from Oklahoma City, played in college at Oral Roberts, before she transferred to the Oklahoma, where she served as a student-assistant coach.
She and her husband, Preston, have a 1-year-old daughter.

Carpenter undergoes elbow surgery on Tuesday
Carpenter, the NL Cy Young award winner in 2005 and a 15-game winner last year, could begin physical therapy later this week. Team physician George Paletta, who performed the surgery, said earlier that Carpenter would be sidelined at least three months.
ST. LOUIS — St. Louis Cardinals pitcher Chris Carpenter underwent arthroscopic surgery to remove bone spurs in his elbow on Tuesday, a procedure the team described as an "initial success."
Carpenter hasn't pitched since the season opener, when he allowed five runs in six innings in a loss to the New York Mets. He had been hopeful of returning to the rotation on Tuesday before experiencing a setback.
Brad Thompson filled his slot, allowing one run in five innings in his second major league start

"Coming out of the bullpen, I felt better than I did in a long time," Oswalt said. "The ball was jumping out of my hand. My curve was great. I thought I might go seven or eight innings without giving up a hit."
Oswalt improved to 19-1 in his career against the Reds with the Houston Astros' 5-4 victory Monday night.
Roy Oswalt loves facing the Cincinnati Reds. Brad Penny can't think of anywhere held rather pitch than Florida.
Stellar pitching wins games
Penny (4-0) walked none and gave up five hits, including two infield singles, and lowered his ERA to 1.39. Following no-decisions in his past three games, he became the first Dodgers starter to begin a season 4-0 since Kazuhisa Ishii in 2002.
Penny's strikeout total was the highest by a Dodgers pitcher since Chan Ho Park had 14 at Milwaukee on Aug.29,2000. Second-year Los Angeles manager Grady Little said the performance was the best he has seen by Penny.
Oswal got into a little trouble in the second inning, giving up consecutive homers to Adam Dunn and Alex Gonzalez. It's only the second time in 22 career starts against Cincinnati that he gave up two homers.
His success against the Reds is unprecedented. The right-hander won his first 15 decisions against them.
"He played hardball tonight," Little said. "Brad didn't shy away from anyone."
In other NL games, it was: San Francisco 9, New York 4; Arizona 4, Philadelphia 3; Colorado 3, St. Louis 2; Milwaukee 3, Washington 0; and San Diego 4, Atlanta 2.
Penny wanted a souvenir after striking out a career-high 14 in Los Angeles' 6-1 victory against Florida. So he took the ball after his final strikeout and put it in his hip pocket. Penny allowed only five baserunners in seven shutout innings to help the Los Angeles Dodgers to a 6-1 victory against his former team, the Florida Marlins.
"I love pitching here," Penny said. "The mound is huge, and it's perfect for a guy like me who likes to throw hard. My fastball was the best it has been all year."
At Cincinnati, Lance Berkman hit his 36th career homer against the Reds - 13 have come at Great American Ball Park. He also has 104RBIs against them - his highest total against any team.
Oswalt needed Luke Scott's three-run homer in the eighth inning to earn the victory.
"He's just so good," Dunn said. "We jumped on him early, but to his credit, like he always does, if you don't get five right there, you're not going to get it."

BROKEN ARROW, Okla.
BROKEN ARROW, Okla.
— South Korea's Mih Hyun Kim announced Tuesday that she will donate $100,000 of her wins from the SemGroup Championship to benefit Kansans affected by a deadly tornado last week.
The donation to the United Way Greensburg Disaster Fund amounts
to nearly half of the $210,000 Kim won by defeating Hall of Famer Juli Inkster in a playoff Sunday at the LPGA tournament at Cedar Ridge Country Club The tornado destroyed Greensburg on Friday night and has claimed at least 11 lives.
"I was just happy that I won the tournament," Kim said. "I felt like I needed to do something for them.
Winning a tournament on its own was a good thing, but I just decided to donate some money."
Kim, 30, has won eight LPGA events and her career earnings on the tour total more than $6.5 million since 1999.
"Most of time, I get the money here and donate to South Korea. But, I want to help people here, too," Kim said.

PGA
BY DOUG FERGUSON
ASSOCIATED PRESS
It was five years ago, his only PGA Tour victory, a finish that arguably remains the greatest in the 33-year history of this event.
PONTE VEDRA BEACH, Fla.
— His image hangs from a banner on the road into The Players Championship, a courtesy extended only to winners. He will always have a locker in the corner room set aside for champions in the sprawling clubhouse at TPC Sawgrass, right between Tiger Woods and Adam Scott.
"I look at it when I get down to say, 'Hey, I did that. I'm The Players champion. I won"_perks said.
More reassuring for Craig Perks than any of those status symbols is a DVD he keeps at home.
Trailing by one shot, Perks chipped in for eagle from 20 feet on the 16th hole. Then came the scary island green on the par-317th, where Perks holed a 30-foot birdie putt. And right when it looked as though he was on the cusp of a choke, he chipped in for par on the final hole from 30 feet behind the
"You're unbelievable," Woods told him that afternoon at the trophy presentation.
green.
Unbelievable takes on a new meaning now.
"I take a positive away from it, knowing I can do it," Perks said. "I know I can play well. I can compete with the best in the world. I just haven't done it."
Since that '02 victory at Sawgrass, the 40-year-old New Zealander has played 125 times on the PGA Tour and made 39 cuts, with only two of those finishes in the top 10. The last one was a tie for fourth at Colonial four years ago.
He plugged in the DVD at the start of the season to give himself a boost. Didn't work.
He has played five times this year and has yet to break par, much less cash a check. Perks is coming off a season in which he finished 254th out of 263 who earned official money on the PGA Tour. His lone payoff came at New Orleans, where he finished last.
Time is running out.
This is the last year of his five year exemption on the PGA Tour
and to The Players Championship. He will always have status as a past champion, and likely can get sponsor exemptions as one of the nicest, classiest people around.
Perks has heard endless references to being a "one-hit wonder," and he might end up being the poster boy.
Shaun Michele has not won since his PGA Championship in 2003, but he was runner-up at the PGA last year and reached the final of the World Match Play Championship last year in England. Paul Lawrie won the British Open at Carnoustie, then captured the Dumbell Links a few years later at St. Andrews. Ben Curtis won twice last year.
His banner will always be o. Champions Way. His nameplate will in the champions locker room.
There are few signs he is about to turn the corner.
"I'm proud to be out here playing, and to have won the event I won," Perks said. "A lot of great players have never won at all. I'm not pushing to get that second victory. I'm pushing to get my game back in shape."
The goal after this week will be to see it himself.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Chad Gaudin struck out a career-high eight and the Oakland Athletics defeated the Kansas City Royals 6-1 on Tuesday night.
Gaudin (2-1) pitched eight innings, holding the Royals to five hits and allowed just one hit after the fourth inning. He lowered his ERA to 2.18, third in the American League.
The A's, who won back-to-back games for the first time since April 23-24 at Baltimore, improved to 28-6 at Kauffman Stadium since the beginning of the 2000 season. The Royals have lost four straight and are 2-6 on the 10-game homestand, their longest of the season.
Eric Chavez, who was 2-for-23 in May, had three hits, including two doubles. Dan Johnson, Chris Snelling and Bobby Crosby each
had two hits for Oakland. Nick Swisher drove in two runs and leads the team with 17 RBI.
Jorge De La Rosa (3-3), who entered the game with an AL-best 0.82 home ERA, was rugged up for six runs — five earned — and 10 hits in 4 1/3 innings. His home ERA jumped to 2.39.
Mark Teahen had three hits for Kansas City.
Swisher scored the As first run in the second inning. An inning later, he stroked a single to right with two outs, scoring Mark Ellis and Chavez and giving the As a 3-0 lead.
Billy Butler dropped Mark Ellis' fly in the fourth, allowing Snelling to score an unearned run, upping the As advantage to 4-1.

ST. LOUIS — Pinch hitter Scott Spiezie and Adam Kennedy drove in two runs each in a four-run seventh inning, giving the punchless St. Louis Cardinals their best offensive output in 10 games in a 4-1 victory against the Colorado Rockies on Tuesday night.
Brad Thompson worked five strong innings in his second major league start. He stepped in for the injured Chris Carpenter, who underwent arthroscopic surgery to remove bone spurs from his elbow earlier Tuesday. The team's ace is expected to be out for at least three months.
The Cardinals raised their record to 6-11 at home. They totaled 15 runs in the previous nine games, twice getting shut out. Despite scoring in only three innings on the current six-game homestand, St. Louis is 3-2.
St. Louis' rally spoiled a dominant outing from the Rockies' Taylor Buchholz, who allowed four hits in
six scoreless innings while working on six days' rest. Buchholz entered with an 8.04 ERA and gave up 10 runs in 8/13 innings in his previous two starts.

It was Bonds' fourth career homer off Glavine and the first in 10 years against the left-hander since an inside-the-park homer April 23, 1997, at Candlestick Park when Glavine was with the Atlanta Braves.
SAN FRANCISCO — Barry Bonds hit his 745th career home run Tuesday night, moving within 10 of Hank Aaron's record 755.
The 42 year-old Bonds homered on May 8 for the first time in his career, leaving Aug. 5 and Sept. 30 as the only days in the regular season he has yet to hit one out.

The San Francisco slugger connected on the first pitch from New York's Tom Glavine for a solo shot over the center-field wall with one out in the fourth, pulling the Giants within 4-1 on his 11th homer of the season. He rounded the bases as "745" flashed on the main scoreboard.
SAN FRANCISCO — Barry Bonds hit his 745th career home run Tuesday night, moving within 10 of Hank Aaron's record 755.
The seven-time NL MVP tipped his hat as he walked out to his spot in left field in the top of the fifth to a standing ovation.
It was Bonds' fourth career homer off Glavine and the first in 10 years against the left-hander — since an inside-the-park homer April 23, 1997, at Candlestick Park when Glavine was with the Atlanta Braves.
The 42-year-old Bonds homered on May 8 for the first time in his career, leaving Aug. 5 and Sept. 30 as the only days in the regular season he has yet to hit one out.

O.J. kicked out of Louisville restaurant
BY BETH CAMPBELL ASSOCIATED PRESS
LOUISVILLE, Ky. — The owner of an upscale steakhouse in Louisville said he asked O.J. Simpson to leave his restaurant the night before the Kentucky Derby because he is sickened by the attention Simpson still attracts.
Amy Sancetta/ASSOCIATED PRESS
"I didn't want to serve him because of my convictions of what he's done to those families," Jeff Ruby said in a telephone interview Tuesday. "The way he continues to torture the lives of those families ... with his behavior, attitude and conduct."
Ruby — who owns restaurants in Cincinnati, Louisville and Belterra, Indiana — said Simpson, who was in town for the Derby on Saturday, came in with a group of about 12 Friday night and was seated at a table in the back. A customer came up to Ruby and was "giddy" about seeing Simpson, Ruby said.
Simpson, an NFL Hall of Famer and Heisman Trophy winner, was found innocent in 1995 of killing his ex-wife, Nicole Brown Simpson, and Ron Goldman but was found liable in a civil trial that followed.
"I didn't want that experience in my restaurant." Ruby said, later adding that seeing Simpson get so much attention "makes me sick to my stomach."
He said he went to Simpson's table and said, "I'm not serving you." Ruby said when Simpson didn't respond, he repeated himself and left the room.
Ruby said Simpson soon came up to him and said he understood and would leave.
O. J. Simpson is seen at the 133rd Kentucky Derby at Churchill Downs in Louisville, Ky., in this file photo from May 5, 2007. The owner of an upscale steak-house in Louisville said he asked Simpson to leave his restaurant the night before the Kentucky Derby because he is sickened by the attention Simpson still attracts. "I didn't want to serve him because of my convictions of what he's done to those families," Jeff Ruby said in a telephone interview Tuesday. "The way he continues to torture the lives of those families ... with his behavior, attitude and conduct."
Simpson's lawyer, Yale Galanter, did not immediately return phone calls Tuesday night seeking comment.

Spring network ratings hit record-breaking lows
BY DAVID BAUDER ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK — Maybe they're outside in the garden. They could be playing softball. Or perhaps they're just plain bored.
In TV's worst spring in recent memory, an alarming number of Americans drifted away from television the past two months. More than 2.5 million fewer people were watching ABC, CBS, NBC and Fox than at the same time last year, statistics show.
Everyone has a theory to explain the plumping ratings: early Daylight Savings Time, more reruns, bad shows, more shows being recorded or downloaded or streamed.
Scariest of all for the networks, however, is the idea that many people are now making their own television schedules. The industry isn't fully equipped to keep track of them, and as a result the networks are scrambling to hold on to the nearly $8.8 billion they collected during last spring's ad-buying season.
"This may be the spring where we see a radical shift in the way the culture thinks of watching TV," said Sarah Bunting, co-founder of the Web site Television Without Pity.
The viewer plunge couldn't have come at a worse time for the networks. Next week they will showcase their fall schedules to advertisers in the annual "un front" presentations.
The networks argue that viewership is changing, not necessarily declining. Some advertisers respond that they are no longer willing to pay full price up front to reach viewers
that may not tune in later.
This fall, both sides will be watching what happens with families like Tony Cort's. During prime-time, Cort, his wife and four kids tend to scatter to computers or other activities in different parts of their New Jersey home. (Not during "American
Idol" or "Lost," though.) They're definitely watching less TV, said Cort, who runs a Web site for martial arts aficionados.

More bad news abounds. NBC set a record last month for its least-watched week during the past 20 years, and maybe ever — then broke it a week later. This is the least popular season ever for CBS "Survivor" ABC's "Lost" has lost nearly half its audience — more than 10 million people — from the days it was a
Advertisers don't believe that the drop in viewership is as dramatic as the numbers suggest, but they're no longer willing to spend what they once did in the spring market, said Brad Adgate of Horizon Media, an ad buying firm.

A Las Vegas police officer passes the motorcycle of boxer Diego "Chico" Corrales on a flatbed tow truck west of the Las Vegas Strip in Las Vegas on Monday. Corrales was killed when his motorcycle stuck a car at a high rate of speed.
>> "CHICO" CORRALES
BY KEN RITTER
ASSOCIATED PRESS
LAS-VEGAS — To his closest friends and boxing associates, Diego "Chico" Corrales death in a high-speed motorcycle crash came as no surprise.
"I think anyone who knew him well knew he was a real thrill-seeker," said Joe Goossen, Corrales' estranged former trainer. Goossen recalled begging the boxen who threw big punches and took big chances not to ride the motorcycles he brought to training camp.
"We had a great three-year run," Goossen said "Tuesday of a relationship that ended when the two parted in October 2006." We won three world titles in three straight fights in two different weights"
Corales' promoter, Gary Shaw, said Corrales, whose career faltered the past two years, recently bought the racing motorcycle he was riding when he was killed.
"He fought recklessly and he lived recklessly," Shaw said. "That was his style."
Police said Corrales' 2007 Suzuki hit the back of a car Monday evening while trying to pass at high speed on a busy residential street about 7 miles west of the Las Vegas Strip and not far from his home.
Corrales, who was wearing a helmet, was pronounced dead at the scene of the 7:22 p.m. crash. He was 29.
Las Vegas police blamed speed and rider inexperience. The state Department of Motor Vehicles said Corrales' vehicle and motorcycle licenses had been revoked in July 2006 for a drunken driving conviction on an October 2005 arrest
Las Vegas police Sgt. Tracy McDonald said investigators found an April 21 bill of sale for the motorcycle and were trying to calculate the speed, which he said appeared "well above" the posted 35 mph.
The Clark County coroner's office was awaiting results of blood drug and alcohol tests before ruling on a cause of Corrales' death, a spokeswoman said. McDonald said the toxicology tests could take about two weeks.
Corrales had a history of drunken driving and faced arrest stemming from a failure to appear in January in a Las Vegas court on a separate DUI charge on March 1, 2006, said Kathy Karstedt, a spokeswoman for the Clark County district attorney. Charges also included speeding and evading a police officer.
In 1999, Corrales also pleaded guilty in Henderson Justice Court to misdemeanor driving under the influence of alcohol, was fined and agreed to attend traffic school, Karstedt said.
Corrales' lawyer, Marc Risman, said the 2006 DUI case was "being resolved." Risman said Corrales was in training camp when he was supposed to appear in court.
"It would be a shame if his memory was tarnished at this point by past incidents that may have nothing to do with what happened yesterday," Risman said.
"Diego lived life to the fullest," said Pat Lamparnei, 51, a family friend who used to go on father-son outings with his son and Corrales' son.

Vienna City Hall launches 'sex hotline'

Vernas City Hall has launched a "sex hotline" to raise money for the capital's main public library, officials said Tuesday.

>> BOARDWALK TRIAL
Jury deliberates after closing remarks
BY ERICK R. SCHMIDT
Nineteen months after the deadly Boardwalk Apartment fire in October 2005, the fate of defendant Jason Allen Rose is in the hands of a 12-person jury.
Verdict for Rose will be decided soon
Rose's defense attorney, Ron Evans, and assistant district attorney Amy McGowan each delivered their closing statements Wednesday afternoon after seven days of witness testimony.
Rose is accused of starting the October 2005 Boardwalk Apartments fire, which killed residents Jose Gonzalez, Helen "Yolanda" Riddle
and KU student Nicole Bingham. Rose is charged with aggravated arson, three counts of murder and seven counts of aggravated battery. The case originally went to trial in February but was declared a mistr! u because of a late-surfacing witness.
McGowan began the prosecution's closing just before 3 p.m. by showing video of the fire that had previously been presented to the jury.
"The hottest, angriest, hugest fire you've ever seen", McGowan said, quoting fire victim Leigh McHatton's
testimony. "As we're watching this, three people are dying behind that wall of fire."
McGowan reviewed eyewitness accounts that she argued proved the fire started exactly where Rose confessed to starting it. She discussed the Department of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives' final report that the fire was set intentionally and Rose's confession of an exact apartment where the fire began.
"What we're looking at, ladies and gentlemen, is that he knew where
the fire was before anyone else did", McGowan said.
The prosecution spoke for 45 minutes. McGowan reminded the jury of Rose's reported history with fire, a witness who put him at the spot of the fire and the disputed confession, in which Rose said he started the fire after hours of questioning.
"This is not a sympathy vote," McGowan said. "There's plenty of sympathy for the people who were hurt in the fire. This is not a sympathy vote. What the issue is, is 'Did you intentionally set this fire?'
SEE TRIAL ON PAGE 5A
Rose faces several different charges
For him to be convicted of:
— Second-degree murder, the Jury must find Rose unintentionally killed the three victims by showing a reckless disregard for human life. Each of the three charges are separate.
— Involuntary manslaughter, the jury must find that Rose killed the
— Involuntary manslaughter, the jury must find that Rose killed the three victims and that it was done recklessly.
— Aggravated arson, the jury must find that Rose intentionally damaged the building with fire, that the damage was done by means of fire or explosion, that the damage was done without the permission of the Boardwalk Apartments' owners and people were in the building. — Aggravated battery, the jury must find that Rose feloniously and recklessly caused bodily harm to each of the seven victims. Each of the charges are separate.
》 TEXT MESSAGING
Emergency contact will change in future
BY JOE HUNT
The University of Kansas will be utilizing a new text messaging alert system to quickly inform students of dangerous situations. The system is a response to the lack of communication the morning of the Virginia Tech shooting in April.
Beginning today, students should receive e-mails directing them to a Web site where they can update their emergency contact information and submit their cell phone number and service provider to the University. The site can also be reached from the main University Web site by clicking on the emergency contact link.
The information gathered will be as secure as student database information and will not be given out to advertisers, said Todd Cohen, Director of University Relations.
"The Virginia Tech massacre brought to light the need to have an Amber Alert system," Cohen said. "This system will work with all cell phone providers."
Dr. Marlesa Roney, Vice Provost of Student Success, said that the system will definitely be used in situations of imminent danger, but she did not know if it would be used for non-threatening situations like snow days.
"What we need to do is discuss with students what they want to be notified about," Roney said. She estimated students could sign up for the service in two to three minutes.
David Mucci, Director of KU Memorial Unions, said that other methods of communication were still being discussed.
"Text messaging is a system that I think makes a lot of sense in terms of students," Mucci said. "But I don't think there is any one answer. It might serve a lot of people but it might still miss numbers of people."

Cathy Ledeker sits on her living room couch underneath three of her favorite art pieces. Ledeker has been doing calligraphy and other arts, including the two pictures below, for more than 25 years.
Cathy Ledeker grasps the skinny, wooden pen, dips its metal tip, or "nib," into a small jar of black ink, and leans over a thick, wooden-covered Bible. Ink flows out of the gap between the nib's two points as she inscribes the name of the book's future owner. Her pen moves smoothly but carefully so that it joins the book.
Her pen moves smoothly but carefully — she can't just throw the expensive Bible away if she makes a mistake.
She pushes down to give the middle slant of an uppercase "S" a wide, snakelike body, and lifts up to leave a light, airy curl on the tail of a lowercase "j." The phone rings, and she sets the pen down to answer.
She hears a man's gruff East Coast accent on the other end, asking her to paint a sign for his Kansas City strip club, complete with naked female silhouettes. Ledeker accepts. Though she practices an ancient art form, she sees no problem stepping away from inscriptions in holy books to sketch shapely female forms.
When you're a professional calligrapher in an increasingly electronic world, you take whatever work you can get.

"If you don't feed them they're going to eat the birds and eventually starve to death," Mitchell said of campus' stray cats.
In her years as cat curator, Mitchell said she had taken six cats as pets, one of which had three legs. She found it near the old powerhouse — now the Hall Center for the Humanities — with a scraggly look and a nasty infection on its leg.
On Thanksgiving morning a starving cat approached Carol Mitchell on her daily walk through campus. Mitchell, a retired Shawnee teacher, returned later that day with food for the calico, which meowed and rubbed against her legs. She eventually took it home as a pet.

Nearly five years later Mitchell still walks campus every day, but now she carries bags of cat food and birdseed.

IN WHAT DEPARTMENT DO YOU TEACH? English, where I teach technical communication courses. I also teach a number of science fiction and fiction writing courses through the Center for the Study of Science Fiction.
WHY DID YOU DECIDE TO TEACH AT KU? I've been working with James Gunn and the center since 1995, coming back each summer for a working vacation when I would assist Professor Gunn with the
summer science fiction courses. In 2000, the English department chairman asked if I would be willing to develop a technical communication program for the University. I did so, then he asked if I would be willing to teach the courses and eventually I was asked to remain for good — so here I am. The real reason I decided to teach at the University is that I love this school, I love the center and I love teaching.
WHAT'S SOMETHING YOUR STUDENTS DON'T KNOW ABOUT YOU? I'm pretty open with my students, so anything they don't know is probably private.
WHERE DID YOU ATTEND COLLEGE? My first undergraduate degree was at the University of Minnesota, where I studied psychology, the classics and astrophysics. My second undergraduate degree was at University of Wisconsin, where I studied English and worked for an observatory.
WHAT'S YOUR FAVORITE THING TO DO OUTSIDE OF THE CLASSROOM? I do many things:
WHAT'S YOUR FAVORITE THING ABOUT LAWRENCE? KU.I love lawrence, but I'm here because of this university.
IF YOU HAD ANY OTHER CAREER, WHAT WOULD IT BE? I would be an astronaut and explore
Restore old vehicles, observe the skies, write, build Web sites and blog.
the galaxy. That's a bit unlikely, though, so instead I've chosen my current career. I love working with students and being part of an educational program.
WHAT'S YOUR FAVORITE
FOOD? I'm not picky. I like just about any thing that's made well. A few Frites include lasagna, sushi and chocolate.
rock n' roll or reggae, sports or special events, KJHK 90.7 is for you.
WHAT WAS THE BEST CLASS YOU TOOK IN COLLEGE? My first astronomy course opened my eyes to the universe. My classes with James Gunn let me understand the magic that goes into showing my vision to others.
IF YOU COULD LIVE ANY-WHERE ELSE WHERE WOULD YOU LIVE? Europa, a moon in orbit around Jupiter — but only if I had a powerful Internet connection and others lived there, too.

Wisconsin orders station to stop gas discounts
Free tea and treats will be served at Tea Time at 3 p.m. at the Union Lobby in the Kansas Union.
MERRILL, Wis. - A service station that offered discounted gas to senior citizens and people supporting youth sports has been ordered by the state to raise its prices.
Center City BP owner Raj Bhandari has been offering senior citizens a 2 cent per gallon price break and discount cards that let sports boosters pay 3 cents less per gallon.
But the state Department of Agriculture, Trade and Consumer Protection says those deals violate Wisconsin's Unfair Sales Act, which requires stations to sell gas for about 9.2 percent more than the wholesale price.
Bhandari said he received a letter from the state auditor last month saying the state would sue him if he did not raise his prices.
The KU Bookstore sidewalk sale will be held from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the East Plaza in the Kansas Union.

Kansas climate may shift
Professor gives dim projection for future of Kansas' environment
BY BRIAN LEWIS-JONES
Donald Worster says in the next hundred years, all times might become bad times on the plains.
Contrary to the Kansas state song, "Home on the Range," where "seldom is heard a discouraging word." Worster, distinguished professor of history, said Kansas could see a repeat of the dust bowl from the 1930's as a result of climate change.
The state song, he said in a lecture at Spairh Auditorium yesterday, promised Americans "a safe refuge in a troubled world." However, Worster said the song left out a few key notes, including dark clouds full of dirt during the depression era, some of which were "dramatic black blizzards that came with high rolling turbulence."
"If predictions are right, those dark clouds will become dirtier and dustier than ever," he said.
Worster, who specializes in North American environmental history, said the great plains may shift back to a time when "the present corn
belt was dry prairie and the present wheat belt was desert." The blame, he said, would be placed on rising temperatures and the extraction of underground aquifers.
"Over the past century, we have discovered an energy abundance lying under our feet to mine and to sell," Worster said. "Yet in a time of global warming, those fuels have become a source of danger. Our habits of mining and consuming have made us one of the most economically vulnerable regions in the United States."
Worster said the pursuit of private wealth, dependence on the government for assistance and the expectation of technological fixes perpetuated economic and social strife that the state could face in the next hundred years.
"If the predictions are right," Worster said, "We're going into a hotter, drier future without these water resources."
Guorong Gao, a visiting scholar who received his doctorate from the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences in Beijing, China, attended Worser's lecture.
He said dry soil and erosion in Kansas was similar to that of China. He plans to do a comparative study between climate change in the states and in Inner Mongolia, he said.
"Some people destroy the environment to some extent just for no reason," Gao said.
Gao decided to attend the University of Kansas for a year-long program instead of Yale or Harvard after he saw Worster speak in China.
Worster said Wednesday that the best solvent to the Midwest's impending crisis was simply to talk and communicate with one another.
Until people begin to conserve more, he said, new lyrics to "Home on the Range" could be dismal.
"The ground has no plant cover" he said. "The wind is starting to blow the topsoil away. The blue skies are turning to darkness at noon."

Panel expands understanding of atheism
BY TYLER HARBERT
Henry Bernheim was asked to give a brief introduction about how he came to be an atheist during the "Ask an Atheist" event Wednesday night in the Kansas Union.
》SOMA
Bernberg, Northbook, ill., sophomore, said his faith, or rather no faith, started when he began to question what he had previously believed.
"How likely is it that there is a creator?" he asked. "I came to the realization that I don't really agree with religion."
"Some people have the assumption we have horns,' Bemberg said. 'We want to say what we believe and why we believe it.'
Bernberg, along with Chris Redford, Wellington graduate student, and Colin Barnes, Overland Park freshman, were part of the three-person panel representing the Society of Open-Minded Atheists and Agnostics that fielded questions from the audience about the hows and whys of what they believe and disbelieve.
Barness' aisthet bolei came about as a result of alfelfong interest
in religious literature. Even though his parents were religious he said his parents didn't push their beliefs on him.
"They felt it was best that I educate myself," he said.
He shifted to Quakerism later in his life because he said he appreciated the open nature of Quaker beliefs. From those beliefs he said he progressed to nonreligious beliefs and ultimately to becoming a "strong" atheist, meaning specifically that he believed there isn't a god.
Redford said he had been a Pentecostal whose life goal was to understand the will of god.
"My number one priority was being a Christian," he said.
After debating with an atheist professor from Arizona online, Redford reached the conclusion that he had been making a lot of assumptions about the universe.
"You could explain everything I was explaining without a god there," he said.
The panel was then asked what brought them to Kansas, a recurrent hotbed for debate over religious issues like evolution and abortion.
Bernberg said he had known about religious issues in Kansas, but that those arguments never struck him until he returned to his home in Illinois and caught up with some of his former high school teachers.
"The science teachers were good-heartedly making fun of me for going here," he said.
The panel was also asked why they trust science over religion, if it takes more faith to have no faith than just having a belief in the supernatural, and if they've ever been persecuted for their atheist beliefs.
Barness said he felt like regardless of faith, everybody is at times persecuted for something and that committing to atheism could have some negative effects.
"If somebody in the presidential election announced they were atheist, their campaign wouldn't make it even though the qualities of leaders don't have anything to do with religion," he said.

SEX CRIMES
Former teacher reaches plea agreement for sex with student
BY DYLAN T. LOVAN ASSOCIATED PRESS
TOMPKINSVILLE, Ky. — A former teacher charged with having sex with a 14-year-old middle school student and running off to Mexico with him pleaded guilty Wednesday to a sodomy charge.
Angela Renee Comer, 28, would serve 10 years in prison under her plea agreement, in which the prosecutor agreed to drop most other charges. Besides one count of third-degree sodomy, Comer pleaded
gully to one count of custodial interference.
She had faced up to 20 years on each of four counts of first-degree unlawful transaction with a minor and up to five years each for two counts of third-degree sodomy.
Comer said in an interview with The Associated Press after the court hearing that she was glad to avoid a trial, which had been scheduled to start Thursday.
"A trial is very stressful for everyone, and I just want this to be over," she said.
Comer entered the courtroom wearing jeans and an orange jail T-shirt and answered a series of questions from the judge before entering the plea.
Police said Corner had a sexual affair with the boy, who is now 16, and took him without his guardian's permission. Authorities found Comer, her young son and the teen in Nuevo Laredo, Mexico, on Jan. 10, 2006.
The boy's grandmother watched as Comer entered the plea. The boy, who was not in court Wednesday,
was removed from her care after the incident and placed in a foster home, she said.
"I'm relieved that it's over. This has been going on for 16 months and I don't think anyone should have to wait that length of time. It's been very difficult for me" the grandmother said.
The Associated Press is not using the grandmother's name to protect the identity of the boy. It is the policy of the AP not to identify victims of sex crimes in most cases.
The grandmother said the boy is
a high school sophomore now. He's embarrassed by the incident and has little contact with his family since he was moved into foster care, she said.
"He doesn't want to come back here, because he says they'll judge him," she said.
Corner said he expected to be eligible for parole after serving 24 months of the sentence. She said she also would be required to complete a sex offender treatment program that takes from 12 to 18 months. Corner has been in jail for
the 16 months since her arrest
Comer also said since her arrest her ex-husband has not permitted her to see her 5-year-old son, who is autistic.
Prosecutor Jesse Stockton declined to comment, pending Comer's formal sentencing, scheduled for June 20.
Tompkinsville, in rural southern Kentucky, sits along a two-lane highway about 100 miles northeast of Nashville, Tenn.

》 WARD PARKWAY MALL SHOOTING
Shooter has killed before
ASSOCIATED PRESS
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — A 51-year-old man who killed two strangers at a shopping mall before being shot to death by police last month had fatally shot a man in 1981 during a fight over a woman.
Logsdon, of Kansas City, opened fire the afternoon of April 30 in the parking lot of Ward Parkway Center, randomly killing Leslie N. Ballew, 33, of Kansas City, and Luke A. Nilges, of nearby Shawnee, Kan.
But David W. Logsdon never stood trial for the earlier killing, which he claimed was accidental, because a Clay County grand jury declined to indict him. The Kansas City Star reported Wednesday.
Logsdon then entered the mall — where he had worked as an unarmed security guard at a Target store until losing his job last year — and fired
He also was suspected in the beating death of his 67-year-old nextdoor neighbor, Patricia Ann Reed, a few days before the mail shoots.
more shots until a police officer shot him.
In December 1981, Logsdon was working as a security officer at Kansas City International Airport when he had a fatal showdown with 24-year-old Steven L. Foster.
Foster was the estranged husband of Sherlene Foster, an airport gift shop employee who had a secret relationship with Logsdon.
On the night he died, Steven Foster went to the Kansas City home he and Sherlene had formerly shared to pick up his children and take them to see the Country Club Plaza's Christmas lights.
Logsdon was at the house, but Sherlene and her 16-year-old sister, Reva, lied and said Logsdon came to
see Reva. the newspaper reported.
Steven Foster drove off with his son but forgot his daughter. When he came back, he saw Logsdon and Sherlane wearing coats and about to get into Logsdon's car. Reva and her boyfriend were outside watching.
"I remember this part like it was yesterday," recalled Reva Neubauer, now a 41-year-old Columbia, Mo. resident. "He said, 'You led to me, Sherlene, I knew you did.'"
Steven Foster punched Logsdon, igniting the fistfight. Neubauer ran inside to call police and her boyfriend followed, saying there was a gun. Logsdon soon followed, shut the door behind him and announced that Steven Foster had killed himself. Neubauer recalls that Logsdon then asked her to lie that Foster committed suicide using Logsdon's gun — which he was supposed to have left at work.
TAX LEGISLATION
Kansas courts fight Cabela's
ASSOCIATED PRESS
TOPEKA — Outdoor gear seller Cabela's is fighting the state's attempt to collect $392,000 in sales tax, penalty and interest on Internet and catalog transactions.
The case is thought to be among the first to set the stage for clarifying Kansas' 2003 tax law on merchandise bought by Kansans online or through catalogs and delivered to them in the state.
Cabela's Catalog, Cabelas.com and Cabela's Marketing and Brand Management.
Nebraska-based Cabela's Inc. which has a store in Wyandotte County, is the nation's largest direct marketer. The sales tax assessment does not involve sales at the store, instead targeting three subsidiaries
The Kansas Department of Revenue audited financial records of
the subsidiaries from August 2002 to September 2004.
The agency concluded the subsidiaries were "doing business in this state" under a Kansas statute enacted in 2003 and should have forwarded sales tax on tangible personal property delivered to Kansas customers for use in the state.
In January 2006, the state issued assessments of tax, penalty and interest for $253,700 to Cabela's Catalog, $110,600 to Cabelas.com, and $28,500 to Cabela's Marketing and Brand Management.
Now, a challenge of the assessments is pending before the Kansas Board of Tax Appeals.
Officials of Cabela's in Nebraska have not commented, and attorney William Prugh of Kansas City, Mo., who represents the company in the tax appeal, said he wasn't authorized to speak for the company.
But in the notice of appeal submitted to the Board of Tax Appeals, Prugh argued that the online and catalog "tax assessments are invalid, null, void and unconstitutional, and should be set aside."
In the appeal notice, the company's attorneys say corporate affiliates of Cabela's don't have a "nexus, a place of business or a physical presence in Kansas, so, the affiliates are not liable for use taxes in the state of Kansas."
Attorneys for Cabela's maintain the company set up Internet and catalog divisions as separate entities without a physical presence in Kansas, despite the retail store.
Sen. David Haley (D-Kansas City) said the case's outcome had implications for taxpayers, especially those living in Wyandotte County where the Cabela's store is near the Kansas Speedway.

CATS (CONTINUED FROM 1A)
A bowl of food sits under the protection of a bush behind Wescole Hall. Mitchell brings an assortment of wet and dry food along with fresh water for the cats.
A woman is kneeling and reaching up to tie a sheet of fabric on the back of a wooden bench. She appears to be preparing for an outdoor activity, possibly a picnic or a craft session. The bench is made of wood and has a natural texture. In the background, there are trees and a fence, indicating that the scene takes place in a park or garden setting.

Carol Mitchell lifts back the plastic tarp covering one shelter another couple made to house stray cats on campus. She has taken home six stray cats through the years, each with a unique personal-
She took the cat to a veterinarian, who had the leg removed. She then rehabilitated it at her home.
"They're interesting and every one is different," she said of the eight felines that reside in her "shelter for homeless cats."
Mitchell feeds her beloved animals a steady diet of dry and wet cat food and fresh water, all discreetly placed in bowls around Wescoe Hall. She said that she hid the food from the other animals on campus, including skunks and oposums, and that she keeps her feeding areas free of trash.
Mitchell is not the only animal lover on campus. She said she often found food tins that she didn't leave in her feeding areas, and that someone had recently been leaving a half-eaten barbecue sandwich face-open near her food. After the cats and other campus animals eat the sandwich's toppings, Mitchell said she gathered the untouched hoagie bun and fed it to birds.
"I think it's cute," Mitchell said of the other cat feeders. "I'm glad people care."
Liliana Merubia, assistant in the office of the provost, said that there were no policies against feeding animals on campus and Capt. Schuyler Bailey of the KU Public Safety Office said the office of public safety did not remove animals from campus unless they posed a threat or were the subject of a complaint.
However, Midge Grinstean, executive director of the Lawrence Humane Society, said that she would
prefer that people not feed wild cats. She said wild cats lived dangerous lives, made shorter by disease, harsh weather and attacks by other animals, humans and cars. Feeding cats allows them to breed more and exacerbates the wild population problem, Grinstead said.
"Two cars in 10 years can make 80 million offspring." Grinstein said.
Rather than feed the cats, Grinstead suggests people call animal control, which brings stray animals to the humane society. There the animals will have access to healthcare and a home.
"Providing we can touch the cat, it will be adopted," Grinstead said.
However, if the cat is suffering from an untreatable disease or is too wild to touch, the society cannot
adopt it out and is required by law to euthanize it, Grinstead said.
"I applaud her for being a kind person," Grinstead said. "So many walk by and don't even notice."
Mitchell said that she had not encountered any dangerous cats, but was aware that feeding them could be contributing to the stray cat population. But she said she couldn't stop feeding them.
"When I go on vacation I hire someone to leave food because they are dependent on it," Mitchell said. "I care about the cats."

TEXTS (CONTINUED FROM 1A)
Other methods for contacting students in an emergency could range from e-mail to P.A. systems to patrol cars driving down Jayhawk Boulevard with megaphones.
The text messaging service was partly born out of a deal to sell Sprint cell phones at KU Bookstores.
"After the microburst, we were thinking about how we could apply
this deal into a text messaging service to inform students about things going on," said Tim Norris, director of KU Bookstores.
"It's like thinking about buying
flood insurance and then having some really heavy rain," Roney said.
With the University now selling cell phones and familiarizing itself with the technology, it was a natural step to create an emergency text messaging system.

Rap music selling less; may need re-evaluation of values
BY MARK DENT
Television has taken on an MTV, PET image the last few weeks.
Rapper Camron told everyone to stop snitching on "60 Minutes." Common said all women were princesses on "Oprah." Snoop Dogg's explanation of how rapper's usage of words differs from Don Imus' played on several network news programs.
Their goal: to restore hip-hop's image in the wake of recent criticism stemming from Don Imus' now infamous words about the Rutgers women's basketball team.
But they may be too late.
Long before Imus uttered his "nappy-headed ho" comment, rap, the music part of hip-hop culture, was in a downward spiral. After about 30 years of growth, rap sales nationwide decreased 21 percent from 2005 to
2006. Sales of other kinds of music in the same timeframe only went down 6 percent. Those numbers, from the Recording Industry Association of America, include compact disc and digital sales.
Lawrence rap, which is usually grouped together with Kansas City as one scene because of the cities' close proximity and large number of venues in Lawrence, has also been affected. Sales have plummeted about 70 percent at one Lawrence music store since 2005 and crowds have decreased where rap artists play.
"The last few years have been terrible for rap," said Chuck "Jigsaw" Creekmur, co-founder and CEO of AllHipHop.com, a leading rap Web site.
You only need to look at the track listing on a few rap albums to see
the presence of misogyny in hip-hop culture.
Jermaine Dupri sang about "Jazzy Hoes" Ludacris distinguished women as "Ho." Jay-Z invites people to read the scripture of "Money, Cash, Hoes."
"The way they talk about women, the way they use the term bitches and hos and stuff, I think is a really sad commentary," said the Rev. Leo Barbee Jr., pastor of Lawrence's Victory Bible Church, 1942 Massachusetts St. "God has given us women to be an asset. To talk about them like that is to demean them."
Imus' comment may have sparked criticism against hip-hop, but studies and polls show people were tired of raps negativity long before.
That doesn't mean rap's declining popularity can be entirely blamed on some artists' perceived negative
"If people were sick of that," said Sean Hunt, also known as Lawrence rapper Approach, "then the radio would stop playing it."
messages.
Creekmur credits the decline to increased bootlegging and a lack of creativity in artists.
The style of local rap acts differs from mainstream rap, but violent incidents, including a murder at the Granada and the murder of Clacc, a member of the local rap group Da Bomb Squad have given hip-hop a bad name.

"With Lawrence, you have a really small town," said Laura Watkins, co-DJ with Jason Agron on Hip-Hop Hyp. "Whenever there's something like the shooting, people are just like, 'hip-hop, it's all bad.' That really damages it."
936-1/2 Massachsetts St., are down 50 to 70 percent from two years ago, and local venues are also attracting fewer fans for rap concerts.
Local rap's differences with the mainstream could actually be part of the reason it's struggling. Rap listeners, Hunt said, have become obsessed with hot singles that have ready-to-sing choruses. The songs are perfect for purchasing on iTunes or for a ringtone. Mobile phone and digital download sales have increased 98 percent and 71 percent respectively since 2005, according to the Recording Industry Association of America. The artists and record companies who make those singles, Hunt said, don't always focus on making quality albums.
Local artists are using podcasts and MySpace accounts to increase their popularity. Hunt said he
expects these steps will help area hip-hop sales increase when several rappers come out with new CDs in the near future.
Changes like those could help local sales bounce back, but an improved image for all of hip-hop could be an even greater benefit.
Hunt said he's worried about the apparent dissension between the critics of hip-hop and the members of the hip-hop community. He wants the two sides to come together. Then, rap music can get back to its old status.
"It'll come back," Hunt said. "But it's not going to be one-sided."

Sigma Nu begins re-colonization
Suspended fraternity works to reqain charter
BY TRAVIS BROWN
Sigma Nu is coming back to campus almost two years after the University of Kansas members were ejected and the chapter lost its national charter.
Fraternity alumni have recruited some former members, who have been met and talked to high school seniors about the new group.
At least seven men who were in Sigma Nu two years ago will move back into the house Aug. 7.

"The alumni have officially begun re-colonization," said Brad Beacham,
"They are working to meet basic operational standards so that they may become an official entity. I am confident in the alumni. It is one of the fraternity's most outstanding."
outstanding chapters."
Even though students will be living in the Sigma Nu house, national headquarters will not immediately recognize the house as an official chapter.
BRAD BEACHAM National Sigma Nu director
The re-colonization is largely due to the assistance of Don Raidt, former professor at the University of California, Irvine.
At first, the house will only be known as a Sigma Nu colony.
"They are working to meet basic operational standards so that they may become an official entity."
Sigma Nu was closed because of the chapter's treatment of pledges.
In a recent edition of Sigma Nu Inc.'s magazine, The Delta, the fraternity said it would lead Greek efforts to "militate against hazing."
The colony will work for University recognition once it regains its charter, said Ian Lang, Interfraternity Council president.
Shortly after Sigma Nu lost its charter, Raidt came to Lawrence to
The fraternity was left in shambles on Sept. 2005 after its members left. People had punched holes in walls, destroyed a toilet and stolen $700 worth of plaques and paintings according to 6News Lawrence reports.
Pitts' said she hoped for more time in the house because many fraternities must wait four or more years before they can begin recolonization.
Then, the second-story porch overlooking Emery Road was crowded with weathered couches. A year later, the balcony was covered in ivy - changes made when Alpha Gamma Delta leased the house from Sigma Nu.
"We didn't think they would come back as soon as they have," said Debbie Pitts, chapter advisor for Alpha Gamma Delta. "We were hoping to have the house for at least two years. But we wish the best to Sigma Nu."
meet with other alumni about rebuilding the chapter.
"We all were shocked," Raidt said, "It seemed impossible that this should happen."
the alumni chose Raidt to lead the recolonization.
He assembled a 12-man transition team and has the assistance of various alumni.
Raidt said he hopes to build a stronger relationship with the University. He intends to do this by bringing the University to Sigma Nu.
Raidt said the alumi plan to install audio/visual equipment that would give Sigma Nu the most technologically equipped house on campus. He said they want to allow small classes to meet in one of the rooms of the house.
Alumni said they intend to stay active even after students move back into the house.
They will monitor the reestablishment and tutor members of the colony.
Raidt said alumni considered grades and actions of members of the 2005 pledge class before they invited them back.
About seven of the original group intend to return.

Bill to stop funds faces veto
A. B. WALKER
Travis Heving/ASSOCIATED PRESS
President Bush and White House staff are threatening to veto a proposed House bill that pay for the war through July.
BY ANNE FLAHERTY
AND LOLITA C. B
ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON - The White House threatened on Wednesday to veto a proposed House bill that would pay for the war only through July - a limit Defense Secretary Robert Gates warned would be disastrous.
The warnings came as Democratic leaders wrestled with how to support the troops but still challenge President Bush on the war. Bush has requested more than $90 billion to sustain the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan through September.
Democrats were unbowed.
"With this latest veto threat, the president has once again chosen confrontation over cooperation," said House Speaker Nancy Pelosi.
In a flash of defiance, House Democratic leaders this week promoted legislation that would provide the military $42.8 billion to keep operations going through July, buy new equipment and train Iraqi and Afghan security forces. Congress would decide shortly before its August recess whether to release an additional $52.8 billion to fund the war through September.
"In essence, the bill asks me to run the Department of Defense like a skiff, and I'm trying to drive the biggest supertanker in the world," Gates told senators Wednesday. "And we just don't have the agility to be able to manage a two-month appropriation very well."
The veto threat came from White House spokesman Tony Snow, traveling aboard Air Force One with Bush to tour tornado damage in Kansas.
"There are restrictions on funding and there are also some of the spending items that were mentioned in the first veto message that are still in the bill." Snow said.
House members planned a vote Thursday, just two days after David Obey (D-Wis.) chairman of the
Appropriations Committee, briefed White House chief of staff Josh Bolten on the plan.
The stern White House response also reflected the high stakes involved for Bush, who is struggling to beat back congressional skepticism about his Iraq strategy. In recent days, Bush has tried to shore up support by personally reaching out to moderate Republican and Democratic rank-and-file.
Democrats face their own uphill battle. Pelosi (D-Calif.) and Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.), say they want to provide troops the resources they need. At the same time, several members within their caucus are calling to cut off funds for the unpopular and costly war.
Democratic leaders acknowledge the new Iraq bill might pass in the House only to sink in the Senate. where Democrats hold a slimmer majority and are more reluctant than their House counterparts to restrict war funds.
"The House and Senate may take different paths forward, but we share a single goal — namely, to write legislation that responsibly provides for our troops while ensuring that the Iraqi people take greater control over their own future," said Sen. Robert Byrd (D-W.Va.), chairman of the Appropriations Committee.
Pentagon plans to maintain a buildup of U.S. forces in Iraq through the end of the year.
In testimony before the Senate Armed Services Committee, Gates left open the possibility of bringing troops home soon, even as the
"If (we) see some very positive progress and it looks like things are heading in the right direction, then that's the point at which I think we can begin to consider reducing some of those forces." Gates said.
Gates told the panel that proposals for a short-term funding bill would be very disruptive and "have a huge impact" on contracts to repair and replace equipment. And if Congress votes in July to pull the plug on war funding, "I would have to shut down significant elements of the Department of Defense in August and September because I wouldn't have the money to pay salaries."
IMMIGRATION
City churches house illegals
BY PETER PRENGAMAN ASSOCIATED PRESS
"We want to put a human face to very complex immigration laws and awaken the consciousness of the human spirit," said Father Richard Estrada of Our Lady Queen of Angels Catholic Church in Los Angeles, where one illegal immigrant will live.
Organizers agents will make arrests inside the churches.
Organizers don't believe immi-
LOS ANGELES — Churches in five big U.S. cities plan to protect illegal immigrants from deportation, offering their buildings as sanctuary if need be, as they pressure lawmakers to create a path to citizenship for the nation's estimated 12 million illegal immigrants.
Beginning Wednesday, a Catholic church in Los Angeles and a Lutheran church in North Hollywood each intend to shelter one person, and churches in other cities plan to do so in coming months as part of the "New Sanctuary Movement."
The U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency has not tried to arrest Elvira Arellano, an illegal immigrant who has taken shelter at a Methodist
sanctuary in churches, although she noted agents had the authority to arrest anyone violating immigration law.
The faith groups "don't seem to realize that they are being charitable with someone else's resources, and that's not charity," said Ira Mehlman of the Federation for American Immigration Reform, which favors limits on immigration.
Anti-illegal-immigration groups called the sanctuary effort misguided.
"We are talking about illegal immigrants taking someone else's job, filling up the classroom of someone else's child," he said.
The sanctuary effort is loosely based on a movement in the 1980s, when churches harbored Central American refugees fleeing wars in their home countries. Organizers of the current movement include members of the Jewish, Muslim, Catholic and other faiths.
"We are talking about illegal immigrants taking someone else's job, filling up the classroom of someone else's child."

hurries in san Diego, Seattle, Chicago and New York won't initially house illegal immigrants. Instead, leaders will provide legal counsel, accompany them to court hearings and prepare plans to house them in churches if authorities try
to deport them.
The plans come as immigration reform legislation has been stalled since last summer, and tens of thousands of illegal immigrants have been detained and deported in stepped-up immigration raids in recent months.
STOCK MARKET
Federal Reserve not changing interest rates
BY MADLEN READ ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK — Wall Street wobbled, then regained its stride Wednesday after the Federal Reserve told investors what they expected to hear: that inflation is still too high for comfort, but the central bank is holding interest rates steady. The Dow Jones industrials rose to another record close.
The central bank's Open Market Committee as anticipated left interest rates unchanged at 5.25 percent, as it has done since last summer. The statement that accompanied the decision was little changed from the one the Fed released after its last meeting in March; the assessment said policy makers were keeping their inflation watch the priority despite a slower economy.
Though some investors were hoping the Fed would raise the possibility of a future rate cut, they weren't surprised by the committee's stance.
Moreover, they were relieved to hear the Fed is not more inclined to raise rates, a move that would make access to capital more expensive and potentially hurt the stock market.
"The Fed said we're not going anywhere," Larry Smith, chief investment officer at Third Wave Global Investors. "They're not saying inflation is going to the moon, they're not saying it's a huge problem right now, but they're concerned that inflation won't come down to their comfort range."
Stocks drew support Wednesday from more takeover news, particularly speculation about a possible bid by mining company BHP Billiton Ltd. for rival Rio Tinto Group. Investors were also pleased about a government report that showed that after three months of declines, the nation's gasoline inventories rose last week. If they keep increasing, fuel costs for U.S. drivers are likely to ease.
The Dow Jones industrial aver
age rose 53.80, or 0.40 percent, to
13,362.87, after reaching a new trading
high of 13,369.29. It was the blue chip index's 21st record close since
the beginning of the year.
The Standard & Poor's 500 index advanced 4.86, or 0.32 percent, to 1,512.58 — a new six-and-a-half year high. The index is near its closing record of 1,527.46, reached March 24, 2000.
The Nasdaq composite index rose 4.59, or 0.18 percent, to 2,576.34.
The stock market has reacted well to the Fed's rate stance; the Dow has hit 43 record closes since the start of October, soon after the Fed stopped raising rates.
"I think the markets can react favorably without the Fed lowering rates," said Steven Goldman, chief market strategist at Weeden & Co., noting that rates will remain stable as long as the economy keeps growing moderately, as the Fed predicts it will, and inflation doesnt accelerate too much.

Cathy Ledeker sits back from her drawing table to study a letter she calligraphed. Her studio is a work in progress but she is slowly starting to get organized and is no longer working from cardboard boxes filled with her art supplies.

dominant mode of mass communication and at a time when computers threaten to replace printed words with electronic ones, Ledeker is one of a few who still make a living inscribing letters by hand.
"I don't think they have a word for me," she said.
"There's the definition, which is the art of beautiful writing," she said. "But then I have this quote on my desk at work that says, 'Calligraphy must dance.'"

When Ledeker begins a project, she starts by sketching it in pencil. Starting with ink would make her too nervous.
"In terms of what she does, primarily with illumination and painting, she's one of the best in the country," he said.
She draws widely spaced horizontal lines to guide her lettering, much
To make it dance, Ledeker also uses illumination — illustrations interwoven with letters of the alphabet, sometimes adorned with thin sheets of gold leaf.
Ledeker specializes in combining calligraphy, illumination and painting to create a fusion of artistic styles.
The only calligrapher listed in Lawrence's Yellow Pages, Ledeker supported herself and two daughters for 25 years through calligraphy and related arts.
Ledeker worked with Mike Sull, a Gardner calligrapher, to create a mural at the Kansas City Public Library's downtown branch in 2004. Sull said Ledeker's marriage of styles separated her from other calligraphers.
"I'm not a very good speller, so I have to double-check everything very carefully before I ink it in," she said.
Now she works full-time teaching art classes at Van Go Mobile Arts in Lawrence, but she still has time for calligraphy on weekends.
Combining the written word with an artistic freedom machines can't match. Ledeker believes the human hand still has a place in an electronic world.
Ink from Ledeker's pen has reached across the United States, into the hands of Jerry Falwell, the evangelical pastor, and Stephen Jay Gould, the evolutionary biologist.
Ledeker taught herself the technique of calligraphy after discovering it during college, and she turned it into a career when people she knew started asking her to do projects for them.

like the paper a third-grader might use to practice cursive handwriting.
Then, she letters in the words slowly and deliberately, filling in the lines with simple letters, slanted at the same angle, with straight edges and perfectly rounded curves. This is the practical, nuts-and-bolts part of calligraphy. The free-flowing, artistic part comes later.
All calligraphers must learn to juggle the function and the art of their craft, she said.
"For a student trying to learn this, it's just like juggling four baseballs and jumping on a trampoline," she said. "It's like learning to write all over again."
Now that she has the basics covered, it's time for the fun part.
Ledeker dips the pen into the ink — she uses only dip pens, never fountain pens — and goes to work. Gone are the deliberate strokes of before; now she lets loose, working fast and free, her pen's motion as flowing and graceful as the letters that result.
She presses and lifts her pen in a wavelike motion, spreading and narrowing the two tips of the nib to vary the widths of her lines. She adds touches that give the letters their character — strong bodies, wispy tails and curling serifs.
She makes sure not to get too carried away, so her letters remain legible.
"You have to be careful," she said.
"It's like wearing too much jewelry."
But Ledeker prefers to give her letters more personality than other,
more consistent, calligraphers.
Her work
"I just have too much bubbling out, I guess," she said.
Ledeker's clients over the years have ranged from famous national figures to local characters, and from huge corporations to world-renowned museums to KU departments and schools.
Her concurrent jobs with the strip club and the Bible publisher made for an interesting scene at home. She would paint fishnet stockings and high heels on a 15-by-5-foot sign stretched between two poles in the hallway, while Bibles were piled high on the kitchen table and her daughters played nearby.
"They thought nothing of it—just, 'Oh, Mom's painting something," she said.
Among the names Ledeker inscribed in the Bibles was that of Jerry Falwell, the politically active evangelical preacher. Ledeker admitted she was less than thrilled to think of her work falling into Falwell's hands.
During the 1990s, she made an award certificate for Stephen Jay Gould, the scientist and strong advocate of the theory of evolution.
"I thought, 'Oh my, the life of an artist for hire.' Ledeker said.
The award, from an association of biological specimen collectors, honored Gould for his biological research.
When Ledeker makes a certificate, she doesn't just write the name
of the award on some nice paper — a computer could do that.
For Gould, she created a border out of a series of evolving wildlife images around the outside of the paper.
Gould was so impressed by its beauty that he wrote to her.
"I got this wonderful letter," she said. "He told me that he'd never hung anything on his office wall before, but he made an exception and hung that."

She integrates drawings and art into the text, using images related to the person's accomplishments.
Ledeker has produced similar certificates for directors at the Smithsonian Institute, the New York Museum of Natural History and the Royal Botanical Gardens in England. She also created a certificate as Robert Eaton, a KU graduate, former CEO of the Chrysler Corporation and namesake of Eaton Hall.

Ledeker currently sharesher artistic talents with some of Lawrence's most needy, younger people as the art director for Van Go Mobile Arts, 715 New Jersey St.
Van Go, a nonprofit agency, hires 14- to 21 year-olds — selected based on low family income, mental illness or problems at school — to create artwork that is sold or commissioned. Ledeker teaches them art skills.
Lynne Green, Van Go executive director, said Ledeker was vital to Van Go's operation.
Her tradition
Even in everyday life, Ledeker writes everything by hand — she never types.
"It's what you would hope any wonderful teacher would have: sort of the combination of high expectations and, yet, a very loving way," Green said.
"It's the difference between the human touch and a machine," she said. "There's no substitute — the spontaneity, the control, the possibilities."
“There’s something of the person in it that is missing when you don’t actually write it,” she said. “A signature is like a portrait of a person, and you may sign your name differently depending on what kind of a mood you’re in, or what kind of day you’ve had, or how much of a hurry you’re in.”
Ledeker owns a computer, but it sat unused for about six weeks with a broken monitor before she got around to buying a new one.
"Our school systems no longer teach handwriting to a large degree," he said. "It's considered almost superfluous now."
But Ledeker isn't concerned about her lack of computer literacy — she's satisfied with her proficiency in penmanship.
"I'm sort of disabled when it comes to using a computer," she said.
Kansan staff writer Matt Erickson can be contacted at merickson@ kansan.com.
Ledeker and other calligraphers bemoan the decline of penmanship — the art of handwriting — in American society as typing replaces handwriting in many areas of life.
Recordkeeping and accounting were all done by hand, and as recently as the first half of the 20th century, entire colleges of penmanship trained students for careers in handwriting, he said.
Penmanship was once a necessary and marketable business skill, said Joe Vitolo, a scholar and historian of penmanship who is also a professor at Marquette University's school of dentistry.
But the spread of the typewriter in the early 20th century sounded the death knells for penmanship as a skill, Vitolo said.

President Bush and White House staff are threatening to veto a proposed House bill that pay for the war through July.
Bush tours disaster site
BY BEN FELLER ASSOCIATED PRESS
GREENSBURG — President Bush sought to lift spirits Wednesday in the wake of a killer tornado, dishing out bugs while stepping through the rubble of what was a close-knit town of 1,400.
The president said he came to Kansas to tour the wreckage in the hopes that he could "touch somebody's soul by representing our country."
"A lot of us have seen the pictures about what happened and pictures don't do it justice," said Bush, standing in the street in front of a brick one-story home with no roof. "There is a lot of destruction. Fortunately, a lot of folks had basements here in this part of the world and lived to see another day. Unfortunately, too many died." he said.
On a day that alternated between rain and sun, Bush got his first look from a helicopter that hovered over the ruins of the Kansas town that was flattened last Friday night. The tornado killed at least 11 people. It was the most punishing tornado to hit the United States in years.
On a short ride into town after his aerial tour, Bush got a rundown of the damage and the recovery from city administrator Steve Hewitt and Democratic Gov. Kathleen Sebelius. She and the White House had a spat a day ago — apparently now resolved — over whether National Guard deployments to Iraq had hampered
— over whether National Guard deployments to Iraq had hampered the government's ability to respond.
The president then went down streets now little more than a snarled mess of mud, wood, glass and wires. Roaring at up to 205 mph and spanning 1.7 miles, the tornado destroyed 95 percent of the town. Gone are almost every building, including churches, city hall and the hospital.
Bush had already ordered emergency aid for the people and business in the Greensburg area. His trip was about delivering something else — presidential empathy.
The White House sought a much more aggressive and engaged reaction to disasters since Hurricane Katrina, when 'a bungled response became a turning point in Bush's presidency.
At one point, Bush stopped at a tractor dealership, the building gutted and its expensive plows mangled.
It had been a major employer in town, and the president freely dished out hugs.
The surrounding neighborhood revealed a car stuck tail first out of the top of a house. Trees were ripped of all limbs, looking like stakes in the ground. A spray-painted sign said politely: "Please pardon our mess."
The president ambled down the road to a house with no roof, almost slipping as he picked his way across a chunk of metal on the lawn. He briefly grabbed a chain saw, ripping it into action for the cameras and other media that accompanied him.
"How are you all?" Bush asked as he moved among residents. "Stylish looking hat," he joked to a man in a green fedora.
The president spent about 20 minutes at a second house, where he listened to survivors. It was there that he addressed reporters for his only public words of the day. For his backdrop, a yellow crane in the home's driveway suspended an American flag while the trees in the front lawn had metal and plastic debris — including a giant upside-down tool box — wedged into what remained of their branches.

Wildfires burn throughout nation
Blazes destroy land in Ga., Minn., Calif.
BY CHRISTINA ALMEIDA
ASSOCIATED PRESS
LOS ANGELES — Firefighters made progress Wednesday against a wildfire blazing over Dante's View in the brush-covered hills behind the city's iconic Griffith Observatory. Animals at the Los Angeles Zoo were moved indoors, and homes were evacuated.
The 800-acre blaze in sprawling Griffith Park was just one firefighters were battling. A wildfire in northern Minnesota had already destroyed 40 homes and buildings, and brush fires in Georgia and northern Florida have charred more than 200 square miles.
Griffith Park is a mix of wilderness, cultural sites, horse and hiking trails and recreational areas set on more than 4,000 acres.
The threat to homes south of the park, where the fire erupted Tuesday afternoon, had eased and many of the residents evacuated overnight were allowed to return Wednesday.

Oregon offers benefits to same-sex partners State passes law to ban sexual orientation discrimination
BY BRAD CAIN ASSOCIATED PRESS
SALEM, Ore. — Oregon on Wednesday joined a growing list of states prepared to offer gay couples some of the benefits of marriage.
Gov. Ted Kulongoski signed legislation creating "domestic partnerships" for gays and lesbians in the state starting Jan. 1. He also signed a bill that outlaws discrimination based on sexual orientation.
measures, said they would "transform our state from one of exclusion to one of complete inclusion." The measures had been attempted before but were always blocked by the Legislature until this year.
Kulongoski, a strong backer of both
The domestic partnership law will enable same-sex couples to enter into contractual relationships that carry many of the benefits offered to married couples. The other law will ban discrimination against gays, lesbians, bisexuals and transgendered people in employment, housing and access to public accommodations.
So far, only Massachusetts allows gay couples to marry. Vermont, Connecticut, California, New Jersey, Maine and Washington have laws allowing either civil unions or domestic partnerships, and Hawaii extends certain rights to same-sex couples and cohabiting heterosexual pairs. The New Hampshire Legislature also recently approved a civil unions measure that Gov. John Lynch said he will sign.
CIVIL RIGHTS MOVEMENT
Indictment brought in'65 killing
BY PHILLIP RAWLS ASSOCIATED PRESS
MARION, Ala. — A grand jury returned a sealed indictment Wednesday in the shooting death of a black man by a state trooper 42 years ago — a killing that set in motion the historic civil rights protests in Selma and led to passage of the Voting Rights Act of 1965.
District Attorney Michael Jackson said the charge and the identity of the person indicted would not be made public until the indictment is served, which could take a few days.
It took the grand jury only two hours to return the indictment in the slaying of 26-year-old Jimmie Lee Jackson, who was shot by Trooper James Bonard Fowler during a 1965 civil rights protest that turned into a melee. The case was little-known as a civil rights-era cold case but had major historical consequences. Fowler, now 73, was the target of the investigation and had said he expected to be indicted. He contended he fired in self-defense after Jackson grabbed his gun from his holster. Calls to his home and his lawyer were not returned Wednesday.
The indictment is the latest in a series of civil rights-era cases across the South that have been resurrected for prosecution after lying dormant for decades. In recent years, prosecutors have won convictions in the 1963 Birmingham church bombing that killed four black girls and in the 1964 killings of three civil rights volunteers near Philadelphia, Miss.
In light of those cases, people in Alabama began to call for a new examination of Jackson's death. Michael Jackson, who was elected in 2004 as the first black district attorney in the Selma and Marion district and is no relation to limnie Lee Jackson, said he acted on these calls.
pictures left of what happened. The district attorney, however, said he had "strong witnesses."
Willie Martin, 74, who was at the 1965 rally and appeared before the grand jury, said he was glad to see action taken after 42 years.
Some of those who were in Marion on the night of the shooting are dead, as are two FBI agents who originally investigated Jackson's death. News reporters were also beaten during the melee, with no
"They kept it smothered down. We didn't have nobody to represent us back then," he said.
Fowler was among a contingent of law officers sent to Marion on the night of Feb. 18, 1965. According to witnesses, about 500 people were marching from a church toward the city jail to protest the jailing of a civil rights worker when the street lights went out. Troopers contended the crowd refused orders to disperse. Soon law officers began swinging billy clubs, while marchers fled.
A group of protesters ran into Mack's Cafe, pursued by troopers. The cafe operator said 82-year-old Cager Lee was clubbed, along with his daughter, Viola Jackson, whose son, Limnie Lee Jackson, was shot trying to help them.

Greensburg devastation shows Bush's skewed priorities
The recent tragedy of a tornado leveling Greensburg, Kan., has cast this small Midwestern town into the nation's spotlight. At first, media attention was drawn to the destruction and despair. Now a town without a city hall is receiving political attention as well.
Gov. Kathleen Sebelius recent ly criticized the lack of supplies
and National Guard units in what is now declared a national disaster site. While President Bush pledged assistance and prayers over the weekend to Greensburg, prayers far outweighed the assistance entering Greensburg borders. Resources are moving slower than the last drops of ketchup out of a bottle because a large part of our
nation's resources are in Iraq.
Sebelius isn't the only governor to criticize the lack of National Guard units. ABC news did a story in which it reported that the depletion of the nation's resources was a problem in all states with National Guard units having only 40 percent of their equipment.
It's nearly impossible to prepare for everything. However, overextending our country's resources in one area and putting our homeland and its people on the backburner is poor decision-making. Hurricane Katrina is a perfect lesson of what happens when preparedness and resources for natural disasters is at the bottom of the priority list.
As a child we're all taught not
to put our eggs in one basket. Perhaps no one ever told that to our President.
This isn't about whether the war in Iraq is wrong or right. This is about the President taking care of the people he made promises to first; the people of Kansas, the people of New Orleans and the people of Florida, American citizens at
home.
We should all be able to trust that if something horrible happened to our homes, our country would take care of us. Unfortunately, President Bush has put that hope on the bottom of his priority list.

Celebrity teaches parenting lesson
Alec Baldwin dropped out of the running for Father of the Year, which only increased my chances of winning the award myself. Pretty soon I'll be atop the list, despite my telling my children that the play area at the mall is for terminally-ill children and the ball bin at McDonald's is for contracting hepatitis.
These look like trivial things compared to leaving harassing voicemails for your daughter as Baldwin did. "You are a rude, thoughtless little pig," he told her. Alec, of course she's a rude, thoughtless little pig: she's 11+.
RYANBROON MINSTER
Now everyone in the world knows about his unconventional parenting technique. Everyone except, probably, his daughter. If you want to communicate something to an 11 (or possibly 12) year-
Although in his defense, Baldwin was unaware of his own daughter's age. "I don't give a damn that you're 12 years old, or 11 years old," he said. Once the kid gets too old for the birthday cards that are shaped like numbers, it gets difficult to keep track.

OPINION@KANSAN.COM
old girl, you go with a text message or you don't go at all.
I've never personally harassed anyone (at least not that I know of), but I bet I could flesh out the basic rules of harassment. It seems to me Rule Number 1 would be, "Don't let your harassment be recorded." Actually, that would be just about the only rule. Beyond that, it's pretty much freestyle.
But countless near-celebrities don't follow this one rule. Aren't they getting harassed enough to know how to do it themselves? Pat O'Brien and Bill O'Reilly both left weird, quasi-erotic voicemails. Baldwin, possibly because his last name lacks an O and an apostrophe, just went for an old-school beating.
"You have humiliated me tor the last time with this phone," he said, wrongly. What he didn't say, because it was so obvious that he didn't need to say it, was the coda, "I'm drunk right now."
I never thought I was a child-harasser, but recently my two kids have refused to go anywhere they weren't carried. I have to carry them to the car, through the store, on walks to the park, and to dinner. I began to make it known that I thought they were being lazy. Then I went to a church meeting where the speaker specifically counseled to not call your kids lazy.
I came home and called my two kids to me. "They told me I not supposed to call you lazy anymore." I said, "So I'm sorry." My son hugged my leg and ran away.
Was that really such good news for him? Had I been harassing him about his laziness? Maybe I'm further away from Father of the Year than I thought.

FOOD SAFETY
China starts crackdown Country faces criticism after pet food scare
BY CHRISTOPHER BODEEN
ASSOCIATED PRESS
ASSOCIATED PRESS
SHANGHAI, China — China vowed Wednesday to crack down on contaminated and sometimes deadly food and drugs after a string of sensational revelations about the safety of Chinese products.
The campaign followed an announcement that authorities had detained managers from two companies linked to contaminated pet food that killed dogs and cats in the United States and Canada.
State media, meanwhile, said the country's disgraced former top drug regulator would go on trial this month on charges of taking bribes to approve untested medicine.
China has long suffered adverse publicity tied to its notoriously lax enforcement of food and drug safety, but the present round has been especially worrying.
China faces criticism from the United States and European Union for what they contend are unfair trade practices, and tainted food scandals could lead to bans on food products that would put Chinese farmers under even greater strain.
Already this year, Mississippi and Alabama have banned catfish from China after tests found ciprofloxacin and enrofloxacin, antibiotics banned for use in the United States. Louisiana officials said Monday they would begin testing Chinese seafood for the antibiotics.

Pope admonishes Mexico's abortion law
BY VICTOR L. SIMPSON ASSOCIATED PRESS
SAO PAULO, Brazil — Pope Benedict XVI began his first trip to Latin America Wednesday by laying down church law on abortion, suggesting that he agrees with bishops who said Catholic politicians in Mexico had excommunicated themselves by legalizing abortion in that nation's capital.
Benedict, who will inaugurate an important regional bishops' conference during his trip, also spoke strongly against abortion during his first speech in Brazil. Speaking in Portuguese, he said he's certain that the bishops will reinforce "the
promotion of respect for life from the moment of conception until natural death as an integral requirement of human nature."

PRIESTS AND SACRED HEART
Benedict's spokesman, the Rev. Federico Lombardi, later said he wasn't aware that the pope was setting down a new policy.
In a statement approved by the pope, Lombardi said the pontiff did not intend to formally excommunicate anyone — a separate and rare process under church law. "Since excommunication hasn't been declared by the Mexican bishops, the pope has no intention himself of declaring it," said Lombardi, who was on board the plane.
But Lombardi said politicians who vote in favor of abortion should not receive the sacrament of Holy Communion. "Legislative action in favor of abortion is incompatible
LETICIA QUEZADA Leftist Mexico City lawmaker
"I'm Catholic and I'm going to continue being Catholic even if the church excommunicates me. My conscience is clean."
"It's nothing new, it's normal, it wasn't arbitrary. It is what is foreseen by the church's doctrine." Benedict told reporters aboard a plane to Brazil in his first full-fledged news conference since becoming pontiff in 2005.
Benedict seemed not to care about the major challenges the Vatican says he hopes to confront during his visit, such as the church's declining influence in Brazil, the rise of evangelism, or his in-flight comments about Mexico City's politicians.
Catholic officials have been debating for some time whether politicians who approve abortion legislation as well as doctors and nurses who take part in abortions would subject themselves to automatic excommunication under church law. The pope seemed to agree with Mexico City's bishops who declared that the city's pro-abortion lawmakers had excommicated themselves.

with participation in the Eucharist . . . Politicians exclude themselves from Communion."
Pressed further by journalists if the lawmakers were excommunicated, Lombardi reiterated: "No, they exclude themselves from Communion."
Pope Benedict XVI descends from a plane after arriving in Sao Paulo on Wednesday in his first trip as pontiff to Latin America. During the flight, the pope discussed excommunicating leftist Mexican politicians.
Excommunication is the severest penalty the Roman Catholic Church can impose on its members. When someone is excommunicated "his status before the church is that of a stranger," the New Advent Catholic Encyclopedia says. In practical terms, that means the excommunicated person is forbidden from receiving the sacraments and participating in public worship.
Church teaching says anyone who has an abortion is automatically excommunicated. "Being a conspiring or necessary accomplice" to an abortion also means excommunication under church law.
The Mexican politicians who supported the measure shrugged off Benedict's comments Wednesday. "I'm Catholic and I'm going to continue being Catholic even if the church excommunicates me," said leftist Mexico City lawmaker Leticia
Quezada. "My conscience is clean."
Before leaving Rome, Benedict said the exodus of Catholics for evangelical Protestant churches in Latin America was "our biggest worry."
But he said the spread of Protestantism shows a "thirst for God" in the region, and that he intends to lay down a strategy to
answer that call when he meets with bishops from throughout Latin America in a once-a-decade meeting in the shrine city of Aparecida near Sao Paulo.
"We have to become more dynamic," he said. Evangelical churches, which the Vatican considers "sects," have attracted millions of Latin American Catholics in recent years.

Kansas maintains slim hope during tourney
BY EVAN KAFARAKIS
As proud as coach Tracy Bunge was with last season's Big 12 championship, it's a thing of the past.
"Last year was last year, done and over with," Bunge said.
The Kansas softball team returns to Oklahoma City to participate in the Big 12 Championship.
A year ago, the sixth-seeded Jayhawks moved through the tournament to win their first ever Big 12 postseason championship.
The squad returns 10 letter winners from last season's team and finds themselves ranked seventh in the field of 10.
"Last year we had six seniors that did a great deal at the end of the year." Bunge said. "This team looks a lot different offensively and defensively and we have two seniors leading us."
Kansas has to get going on their own hot streak.
Bunge also said that this year's winner can be from one of eight teams and whoever is on the hot streak will come out as champions.
The squad is on a five-game losing streak with their two most recent losses to the team they will face in game one of the championship, Iowa State.
The last time the Jayhawks had a five-game losing streak, they followed with a five-game winning streak.
"We stumbled last week," Bunge said. "Mentally we didn't seem like we were ready to play, and we let Iowa State dictate the game."
The two teams have faced off against each other three times this season with the Cyclones having the overall lead 2-1 and outscoring the Jayhawks 15-7.
If the Jayhawks can get through the Cyclones in single elimination, they will face the Sooners.
Oklahoma is ranked third in the field and split with Kansas in the regular season. Taking a look inside the numbers of the regular season shows how the Jayhawks have faired on the season.
Offensively, Kansas is 26-3 when scoring the first run of the game and 23-0 when they lead after five innings of play.
Defensively the lajayhaws are 18-5 when they don't commit any errors.
On the other side, Kansas is 0-13 if they give up five or more runs and 2-19 when trailing after four innings.
The team is 4-11-1 when they commit two or more errors in a game.

A men's basketball trip to the Elite Eight
The men's basketball team advanced to the Elite Eight for the first time since the 2004 season. Kansas, the No. 1 seed in the West Region, lost to the No. 2-seeded UCLA Bruins 68-55. Guard Brandon Rush led the Jayhawks with 18 points and five rebounds.
4 Fourth-quarter football meltdowns
It could have been one of the best seasons in Kansas football history. Instead, the season was like a never-ending night mare. The Jayhawks blew late fourth-quarter leaks in four games — including three conference games, one being a 36-35 defeat after giving up 19 points in the fourth quarter to Baylor in Waco.
5 Golfer Amanda Costner wins Big 12 individual title
Senior women's golfer Costner was the first Jayhawk ever to win a conference individual title. In the last round, she shot a five-over par 77 and had a total of 221. Kansas placed ninth as a team.
Women's basketball defeats Kansas State and a
surprise tourney run For the time in six years, Kansas defeated K-State 82-74 in double overtime in Allen Fieldhouse. Kansas was led by freshman Danielle McCray with 25 points. Senior Shaquina Mosley sent the game into double overtime with a layup with seconds remaining. Mosely finished just shy of her first triple-double. In the Big 12 Tournament, the women defeated Oklahoma State 71-62 and then fell to Baylor 71-54 to end their season.

In front of a sell-out crowd, the men's basketball team came from behind to defeat Kevin Durant and the Texas Longhorns 90-86. Kansas trailed by 12 at halftime, but rallied quickly into the locker room to start the second half. Sophomore Mario Chalmers led the Jayhawks with 21 points. The victory gave Kansas its seventh Big 12 title, 50th conference title overall and also 1,900 victories.

Kansas defeats No. 1 Florida in Las Vegas During Thanksgiving break. Kansas traveled to Sin City to take on
During Thanksgiving break, Kansas traveled to Sin City to take on the defending national champion Florida Gators. After a sluggish victory against Ball State on Friday night, the Jayhawks came out ready to play Florida on Saturday by defeating the Gators B2-80 in overtime. Julian Wright scored a team-high 21 points and had 10 rebounds in the victory. In the last minute of overtime, Brandon Rush scored a layup and Russell Robinson made a free throw to clinch the victory.
10 Kansas baseball can't repeat fantastic 2006 campaign
After finishing the 2006 season with 43 victories, a return to the NCAA tournament and a Big 12 Tournament championship, the Jayhawk's hopes were high for the 2007 campaign. But right now, the Jayhawks hold a losing record of 23-28, B-15 G12 Conference. The Jayhawks have only won one G12 series, but on the other hand have been swept only once. The way it looks right now, Kansas will be the first team in G12 history to win the tournament one season, then not return the next.

Jayhawks struggle for postseason

It's not over vet
After Kansas took the two-game sweep from Kansas State last weekend, the Jayhawks (23-28, 8-15 Big 12 Conference) fell back into last place in the Big 12 standings, and their fate after the regular season looked dim.
Running out of time, the lajahaws needs victories to keep its postseason hopes alive.
They started with an 8-5 victory against Missouri State on Wednesday.
"I'm proud of how resilient this team has been," Coach Ritch Price said. "I'm not going to let them quit. We're going to play this thing out and try to sweep Chicago State on the weekend and see if we can get back to .500 and see if we can get some help in the last

support and a family man who was able to find time for what was really important to him amid the hectic schedule that his fame brought.
"I knew what I wanted to do"
Harlan was born in 1960 in Milwaukee and grew up in Green Bay, where his father's position as assistant general manager allowed him access that most kids could only dream about and introduced him to sports broadcasting.
Harlan has known sports his entire life. His father, Bob Harlan, is president of the Green Bay Packers.
Harlan said during his childhood he would sometimes go into the broadcasting booth at Lambeau Field and make up play-by-play for imaginary Packers games. By the time he was a sophomore in high school, he was doing the real thing, broadcasting his school's sporting events on the school radio station. It was a tape of a high school hockey game that first got Harlan noticed and began the chain of events that landed him in Kansas.
"There was a brief time where I wanted to be a commercial airline pilot," Harlan said. "But for the most part I have always known this is what I wanted to do. When you know what you want to do at an early age, that just starts the whole thing."
"I was all set to go to Wisconsin," Harlan said. "Then Gary Bender was doing a Packers game for CBS. He was a KU alum, and he talked to my dad and told him I needed to go to Kansas and learn under Tom Hedrick."
A broadcaster at the University of Wisconsin, Bob Johnson, heard the tape and began recruiting Harlan to study under him. At the same time, CBS broadcaster Gary Bender heard the tape and told Kevin what he thought Kevin should do.
Hedrick, a veteran broadcaster and KU journalism professor, had known Bob Harlan for about 25 years when Bob called him to say his son wanted to be a sports broadcaster and asked Hedrick to help.
"I asked 'Is he actually good or is this just a dad talking about his son?' Heedrick recalled. "He said he would send me a tape. After about two or three minutes of the tape I just started laughing and I thought 'This kid is phenomenal.'"
Harlan nervously called Hedrick

Rules to live by as KU alumni
BY C.J. MOORE
KANSAN SPORTS COLUMNIST
CJMOORE@KANSAN.COM
My fellow 2007 graduates:
Don't move to hell.
If I could give
IF I could give you one piece of advice for the rest of your life, it would be not to move to Columbia, Mo. Because that's pretty obvious, here are a few other tips to keep in mind for life after the University of Kansas.
When you pray — if you're the praying type — always face the Mecca, Allen Fieldhouse.
Keep your ticket stubs.
Some day you're going to get old and you can look at a ticket stub and remember when the Kansas football team finally beat Nebraska or when we sunk the goalposts and the Tigers and Wildcats at Memorial Stadium two straight times. Or when Keith Langford willed the Wayne Simienless Jayhawks to victory on New Year's day against Georgia Tech or the comeback against Kevin Durant and the Longhorns in your final game as a student at the Fieldhouse (oh wait, they quit giving us ticket stubs for basketball games).
Root for your hometown teams.
If you move to another city, don't adopt that city's teams as your teams. It's sports bigamy, especially if you start rooting for another college other than Kansas. The only exception would be if you're from Kansas City, for example, and you move to a city with an NBA team. You can adopt that NBA team as your favorite.
When you have kids, make them layhawk fans.
Don't give them any other choice. Take them to a game at the Fieldhouse and a game at Memorial Stadium. Teach them the Rock Chalk
Chant and tell them why our mascot is the lav Hawk.
If your kid wants a Duke hat or a UNC hat, ground him.
Don't name your son Phog. Because I already called it — hopefully the future Mrs. Moore will understand.
If you come back for a game, you have only a two-year window where it's OK to sit in the student section and this is if — and only if — you have no other choice. And if your parents are with you, then under no circumstance is it OK to sit in the student section.
Don't tear down goalposts. It wasn't even a good idea when you were still in college.
Wherever you move, find fellow Kansas graduates and get together to watch the KU games. Because it gets weird when you are the only one doing the Rock Chalk Chant at a bar and no one has any idea what you're doing.
Always pick Kansas to win it all in your office pool. It's the right thing to do. Be really annoying and vocal during March Madness in your office if the 'Hawks are still alive, especially if you have Mizzou and K-State grads as co-workers.
Don't ask for autographs.
You lost that right when you hit puberty. Get a handshake or share a conversation instead. It makes for a better story and the athletes will appreciate it.
Don't marry a K-State fan or graduate. Those "this is a split household" signs are not cute.
Never ever marry a Missouri fan or graduate. No need to expound on this one. Just don't do it; your offspring will appreciate it.
And of course, remember to never move to hell.
It wouldn't suit you. You're a Jayhawk.
Moore is a Shawnee senior in journalism.

Year missing seminal moment: Senior Night
At a basketball school like the University of Kansas, it's easy to form a symbolic attachment to the basketball players who came the University as freshmen when you did.
PETER HUNTER
On Senior Night in Allen Fieldhouse next year, the class of 2008 will be able to connect with Robinson and Kaun and the rest of their classmates. But, as a graduating senior, the class of 2007 missed out on its Senior Night.
This year's freshmen have herron Collins and Darrell Arthur. The sophomores have Mario Chamers, and maybe even Brandon Rush. For the juniors, there's Sasha Kauan and Russell Robinson.
Sure, the fee in the Fieldhouse is formally to honor the Jayhawks in jerseys, but KU's academic seniors are as much a part of Senior Night as the basketball players.
As I prepare for my only final,
BY JONATHAN KEALING
KANSAN SPORTS COLUMNIST
JKEALING@KANSAN.COM
I'm left wondering what it would have been like to witness a Senior Night, when I was senior. I'm left without a seminal moment in KU sports, which have been a major part of my educational career.
When I came to the University of Kansas, I was the guy in your dorm organizing camping groups. I was the one who woke you up for the lottery early in the morning. I was the one sitting in the tsunami of a football game against Northwestern in 2003.
By my second semester, I was
covering women's basketball for The Kansan, and then football shortly thereafter. Sports was my entry into journalism, which has been the focal point of college. I've skipped classes, missed classes, slept through classes and otherwise had poor academic moments because of my dedication to journalism.
But I must admit, it's been fun along the way. Covering away sporting events, major campus natural disasters as well as the President of the United States - those are the memories I will keep of my college experience.
As I go forward, I can only hope that my future experiences can top those I've had as a journalist at the University of Kansas.
And it all started when I walked into Allen Fieldhouse to cover Marian Washington's last season as women's basketball coach.
Journalism has given me an opportunity to meet all kinds of interesting people. I've interviewed Mack Brown, Gary Pinkel and Quin Snyder. I've spoken with senators, governors and leaders of business and industry. It all started with sports.
And yet, I still feel like it can't yet be time to go. I'm not sure why, but I can't help but think that if there had been some sort of seminal moment, some Senior Night, I would be as ready to leave as I am excited.
Kealing is a Chesterfield, Mo., senior in journalism and political science. He's worked for The Kansan for eight semesters, including two as its editor.
It's been a pleasure to write stories and columns for The Kansan.
It's an experience I'll never forget.

Indy 500 champion adapts to newfound fame
INDIANAPOLIS — Sam Hornish Jr. is growing into his celebrity status.
His face is plastered on media guides, on television, around the historic Indianapolis ovaland, of course, etched into the Borg-Warner Trophy. As this year's star attraction, the low-key 27-year-old still is adapting to his new role as defending Indy 500 champion.
"A lot more people know who
you are'he said. I thought after winning two championships in the iRL, I was about as recognizable as I ever would be. I've definitely been surprised by how many more people know who I am now"
Hornish's profile has risen so much in the past year that his name is bandied about in NASCAR circles, and he's added a few Busch series races to his schedule.
Yes, winningIndy changes everything, and in Hornish's case it even meant reassessing goals.
This year, Horn is hope to join Penske teammate mello Castro-
nevies in the elite back-to-back winner's club. Although 63 drivers have steered into Victory Lane at Indy, only five have done it in consecutive years: Wilbur Shaw, Mauri Rose, Bill Vukovich, Al Unser and Castronevees. Unser and Castroneves are the only ones to do it in the last half-century.
But Hornish understands that while success can be defined on this 21/2-mile track, so can failure.
Until last year's win, Hornish's lifelong dream seemed more like the plot from "Groundhog Day" _ abadrerun. Each year, he'd come to Indy and agonizingly answer
questions about his string of bad luck. Then, as if on cue, something else went wrong.
There were crashes in 2000, 2004 and 2005. He finished four laps off the pace in 2001 and 14 laps down in 2002. In 2003, an engine malfunction with five laps to go cost him his best finish. He settled for 15th.
So when Hornish pulled out of the pits in last year's race with a fuel hose still attached to the car, most people figured the jinx had struck again.

Cardinals break low-scoring streak at home
ST. LOUIS - The St. Louis Cardinals scored a couple of runs, then scored again, and again. For this team, it was practically uncharted waters.
Jeff Roberson/ASSOCIATED PRESS
Adam Wainwright had another strong outing and the Cardinals scored in multiple innings for the first time in seven games in a 9-2 victory against the Colorado Rockies on Wednesday.
"Today was a lot of the old-time Cardinals, turning over the batting order," said Aaron Miles, who had three hits and an RBI. "You look through the lineup, and we had a lot of hits."
Scott Spiezio added two hits and two RBIs in a 12-hit attack that led to two runs in the second, two in the fifth, four in the sixth and one in the seventh. St. Louis completed a 4-2 homestand with no home runs, getting by before the finale with a pair of three-run innings and a four-spot in the other three victories.
The Cardinals toaled 16 runs in the previous eight games and have scored two or fewer runs in half of their first 32 games. The last time they scored in multiple innings was May 1, when they had single runs in the second and third innings of a 1-2-2 loss to the Brewers.

each had an RBI double for the Rockies, who have lost three of four. Jason Hirsh (2-3) walked six and struck out five in four-plus innings, allowing three runs.
Despite their recent success, the Cardinals' 14-18 record is their worst since an identical start in 1990.
Wainwright (3-2) gave up two runs, one earned, and nine hits. He struck out four, didn't walk anyone, and stranded nine runners his first five innings. It's his second straight effective start while rebounding from arm fatigue related to his conversion from the bullpen along with mechanical issues.

Jarrett fails to qualify after 424 races

NAPA Coca-Cola GOODBYE UPS RACING
Driver Dale Jarrett, center, talks with crew chief Jason Burdett, left, and Tricia Walls, right, during NASCAR Nextel Cup testing at Lowe's Motor Speedway in Concord, N.C., on Tuesday.

Chuck Burton/ASSOCIATED PRESS
CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Dale Jarrett knew his first season with Michael Waltrip Racing would be rough. But he never imagined he'd be sitting at home while a race roared on without him for the first time in 13 years.
It happened last week in Richmond, Va., when Jarrett failed to qualify for the first time in 424 races. Not since North Wilkesboro in 1994 had Jarrett missed the cut, but he bounced back that next week with a win at Charlotte and never looked back.
It would take nothing short of a miracle for jarrett to rebound the same way.
The 1999 Cup champion heads to Darlington Raceway this weekend looking not for a fourth career victory at the South Carolina track. Jarrett instead would be thrilled with simply earning a spot in the 43-car field.
"It's not a situation where we expect miracles or anything," said jarrett, who went to his son's baseball game and didn't watch a single lap of last week's race.
"I did realize they can have a race without me and it's not the end of the world. But you could see it coming, it was no great surprise. Even so, it's never fun whenever you are not a part of what you do."
Out of provisionals and saddled in a struggling first-year team, jarrett ultimately could miss more
races than he'll make this season. It was hardly what he signed up for one year ago, when he and Waltrip announced their new partnership at Darlington.
Jarrett left his longtime home at Robert Yates Racing to drive a Toyota for Waltrip, and he took big-money sponsor UPS with him. It was like winning the lottery for Waltrip, but a bit of a leap of faith for jarrett.
He trusted that Waltrip would have everything in order, and Toyota
would blaze its way into the Nextel Cup series. But if either faltered, Jarrett still would have his past champion's provisional to fall back on.
Then NASCAR threw him a curve in January when it took away endless provisions by changing the rule to a maximum of six. And the new team sputtered out of the gate, with Waltrip's crew getting caught cheating during Daytona 500 preparations.
The Camrys are slow, the team development is behind, and all three of the MWR cars have struggled to make races. Waltrip has missed nine straight, David Reutimann has made seven of 10 and Jarrett used all six of his provisionals to make the nine races he started.
Knowing what he knows now, he insists he wouldn't change his decision to join MWR.
"No regrets whatsoever," he said.

>> INDY CAR RACING
Vanderbilt graduate ready to focus on race career
BY TERESA M. WALKER ASSOCIATED PRESS
NASHVILLE, Tenn. — Brad Jaeger might be the only driver heading to the Indianapolis Motor Speedway this month who actually will be slowing down.
He graduates Friday from Vanderbilt with a degree in mechanical engineering, allowing the Indy Pro series rookie to focus entirely on his first Indy race without the distraction of classes, books and tests.
"It'll be a month to remember," the 21-year-old laeper said.
Jaeger debuted on the developmental series for Brian Stewart Racing in March and has run two races. But his boss said Jaeger's racing has suffered because he was busy being a full-time student.
"Once we have his undivided attention, I'm going to expect him to run at the front and possibly win. He's won in other classes. That's the way I look at it. If you've won somewhere else, we can make you a winner in the Pro Series," Stewart said.
Stewart knows talent. He has had drivers such as Paul Tracy, Bryan
Herta and Jacques Lazier, and won the 2005 and 2006 titles thanks to Wade Cunningham. Waiting for Jaeger to finish college has been worth the trouble to get a driver/engineer who can work well with the crew.
"It's better if the driver can talk to you about the car and really understand what's going on." Stewart said.
"I just remember being at the track as a really little kid and playing with my remote-controlled car, just growing up in that environment. As soon as I could, I wanted to go go-kart racing," the younger jaeger said.
Education came first for Jaeger, son of an electrical engineer who designed and sold the Escort radar detector in the 1980s, then retired. That gave Jim Jaeger time to race in the Sports Car Club of America series with his son in tow.
His father eventually tired of the stress of racing, but that didn't stop his son from asking for a few years to let him race.
"That was such a relief when he finally agreed." Brad Jaerge said.

--it clear to the professors from the start of a class or the start of a semester I wasn't slacking off. I was pursuing my dream. This was going to be my profession when I finished school," he said. "As soon as they realized this is truly what I wanted to do, they were very helpful."

BIG 12 BASEBALL
Texas, Missouri fight for Big 12 title
BY RICKY TREON DAILY TEXAN
AUSTIN, Texas — Texas has come too far, it seems, not to reach its first major goal of the season — the Big 12 regular season championship.
Though the No. 7 Longhorns did miss out on their first opportunity to claim the title Sunday by not winning their series with Missouri, it's still possible for them to make it happen. The Longhorns still top the conference as they head into their final conference series of the season with No. 11 Texas A&M on May 18 in College Station, Texas. It's then that Texas must prove what its coach, Augie Garrido, already seems to know.
"We're the best team," Garrido said. "We're going to win the championship."
Garrido isn't the only conference coach that feels Texas is, at the very least, tied for the top crew in the
conference. Missouri's Tim Jamieson said Texas is the best squad his team has played all season.
"These are the two best teams in the Big 12," Jamieson said, referring to the Longhorns and his Tigers.
But there's a lot of baseball to be played by Missouri, who sits second in the conference standings, and Oklahoma State, listed just one loss behind Missouri.
The Tigers and Cowboys, both of whom Texas has already played, each have a series during Texas' weekend off. On paper, both teams should win their series with Oklahoma and Texas Tech, respectively.
Those games lead up to a meeting between Missouri and Oklahoma State during the same weekend the Longhorns and Aggies square off, meaning the race for the Big 12 regular season championship may not be determined until May 20.
The amount of games and scenarios is one reason why most of the Longhorn players are a little more
skeptical than their skipper.
"We definitely do have a shot at winning it," senior Nick Peoples said. "I'm not making any guarantees or anything, though."
One advantage Texas has by not playing a Big 12 team this weekend is having time to rest — both physically and mentally.
Two Longhorn outfielders, Jordan Danks (left) and Kyle Russell (right) are currently out of commission with minor injuries to their shoulder and right wrist, both sustained during the Missouri series.
"This is the best time for them to be injured," said Garrido, who expects both players back by the A&M series. "Now they have some time to heal."
The Longhorns will also have time to get final exams out of the way during the short hiatus from conference play, though they do play a game with Arkansas-Pine Bluff on Saturday at 2 p.m.

HARLAN (CONTINUED FROM 1B)
to arrange a visit to Lawrence in January 1978.
"Just soaking in Allen Fieldhouse, seeing this beautiful campus, I was completely taken." Harlan said.
To make things even better, Hedrick told Harlan that he would get the opportunity to fill in for Hedrick on his local sports radio show.
"That sold me right there," Harlan said.
"As much work as I could possibly handle"
"When I went there," Harlan said of his arrival at Kansas, "it was like I was stepping into a completely different world."
Hedrick kept his promises to Harlan, who, as a freshman, would fill in for Hedrick on his radio show whenever Hedrick was out of town.
By the time he was a junior Harlan had enough experience that the Kansas City Chiefs hired him to produce the radio pre-game show.
All of this work, which required Harlan to be involved with a broadcast every Thursday through Sunday, left him little time for a normal college life. Still, he was involved in the Greek system and frequented local landmarks like The Wheel and Joe's Bakery.
By his senior year, Harlan had his own KU sports talk show on Sunday nights and did some KU baseball play-by-play on Kansas City radio. He was no longer a broadcasting student, but a broadcaster who happened to be a student.
"There was still enough freedom to get just to the edge of trouble," Harlan said.
"That put me in a position that few kids in the country were in as far as practical experience," Harlan said.
"By the time I was walking down the hill, I knew I would be an NBA announcer." Harlan said.
His first big break professionally came three days after the end of his senior year, when Kansas City television station KCMO told him its announcer for Kansas City Kings NBA games was leaving and he was the choice as the replacement.
A "meteoric" rise
After graduating with a degree in broadcast journalism in 1982, Harlan worked for one year as the voice of the Kings before the station lost the rights to the games and acquired KU football and basketball in its place. Fittingly, Harlan was paired with Tom Hedrick.
They worked KU games for a year before the station lost the rights. Harlan bounced around for a while until he did the radio broadcast of the spring football scrimmage for the University of Missouri.
The game itself was not notable, but it served as Harlan's audition for a job that just opened up, the radio voice of the Kansas City Chiefs. He
While with the Chiefs, Harlan gained local fame for his catchphrase, "oh baby what a play," which he would exclaim after a great play by the Chiefs.
got the job.
"It was a Monday night game against Buffalo, the first Monday Night Football game in Arrowhead in a long time, and I guess I used it a couple times during that game," Harlan said. "I was driving home with my wife after the game and listening to the post-game show and some drunk guys in the parking lot called in and talked for a while and then when they were finished they said 'and one more thing: Oh baby, what a play!' So I thought people must have liked it and I started using it."
In 1994. FOX hired Harlan as one of its play-by-play announcers for NFL coverage. He was now working a network television job, the top of the ladder in sports broadcasting, and he was just 34 years old. At the same time, he kept a job with the Minnesota Timberwolves, where he gave Kevin Garnett his nickname, "The Big Ticket."
In 1996, he started doing NBA
playoff games for TNT and left the Timberwolves to work regular season games on TNT the next season. He now had two national broadcasting jobs.
Harlan left
FOX for CBS
after the 1997
season, a decision he said may have had its roots in his Kansas experience.
"He's kept things in perspective which not many guys in this business are able to do."
TOM HEDRICK
Retired KU journalism professor
"I was really missing college basketball." Harlan said.
Now, Harlan does college basketball games after the end of the NFL season and covers the NCAA Tournament, including the Final Four on CBS radio.
"Whatever is humanly possible"
Harlan's only regret about the path his career has taken is the heavy travel requirement limits his time with his family.
When the NBA playoffs move into the Finals and off TNT at the end of this month, Harlan will be done working until the NFL starts back up in August. During that time, the family heads up to their cottage on Lake Michigan for the whole summer, where Harlan is finally able to get some much-needed relaxation.
Harlan has been married since 1987. He and his wife, Ann, have four children: Abigail, 17, Haley, 16, Olivia, 13, and Robert, 10.
During the off-season, things are different.
"That is unquestionably, unequivocally, the worst part of the job." Harlan said.
"He's as good a family guy as you will ever meet," Hedrick said. "He's kept things in perspective, which not many guys in this business are able to do."
nity to be with his family, regardless of convenience.
During the fall and winter, when the NFL and NBA are both in their regular seasons, Harlan often finds himself on different coasts during the week and on the weekend. Still, Ann said, he takes every opportunity
"I'm not working during the summer, so we've tried to make our summers really special," Harlan said.
"He does whatever is humanly possible to get back here when he's not working." Ann said. "Sometimes his definition of 'humanly possible' is different from most other people's."
Ann says that even though Harlan is working constantly and barely getting any rest during football and basketball seasons, she would never categorize him as a workaholic. She compared his life to that of an accountant during tax season.
"He literally leaves a message on the answering machine that says 'I am out of the office until August and I cannot be reached,' Ann said."
Ann said
Harlan doesn't
watch any
sports while he is away, including the NBA Finals.
"He just completely tunes out," Ann said. "People will see him and ask what he thought of the game last night and he'll just say 'I have no idea.'"
When Harlan comes back to Lawrence now, it is as a detached observer for whom neutrality is second nature. Still, it is his experience at Kansas and the help of Tom Hedrick that Harlan says got him where he is today.
"My kids are starting to look at colleges now, and I don't know if they are considering KU, but I can only hope that their experience comes close to how fulfilling and gratifying my college experience was," Harlan said.
Meanwhile, his mentor, now a retired Lawrence resident, watches happily as his student ascends to the top of the sports broadcasting world.
"He didn't cut any corners and he's done it the right way," Hedrick said. "I'm very proud of him."

SOFTBALL (CONTINUED FROM 1B)
Humphreys(18-12) is one of the Big 12's top pitchers.
Humphreys is holding opponents to a .194 batting average in 41 appearances. Humphreys' five saves are tied with Sarah Clopton's five in 2000 for the most in a season by a Jayhawk pitcher.
"Tournament time is to let everything that has been prepped the entire season to come out and shine."

weekend."
Run support has been hard to come by as of late for sophomore lefty Andy Marks (4-6). In his last three starts, his guys had given him just one run.
Kansas' consistency duo, senior Kyle Murphy and junior John Allman, teamed up in the Javahaws' first at bat. Murphy dropped a single into shallow left to lead off the game before Allman blasted a Sean Toler delivery to right-center field.
"It was really nice," Marks said. "Anytime you put up eight runs you win a lot of ballgames."
The Jayhawk bats thanked him heartily on Wednesday.
Four straight Jayhawks reached base to start the fourth, including a two-run blast from junior second baseman Ryne Price deep to right. His ninth of the season was just the beginning of the six-run fourth. This was the first six-spot the Jayhawks have strung together since blowing out Texas 14-6 on Apr. 6.
"Me, Buck and Brock were like 'Let's try to do something productive with these AB's,' Ryne Price said. "It's kind of funny cause Buck singled and so did Brock, it just
hopefully got us going a little bit."
Price opened the gate for junior right fielder Brock Simpson to follow up with a single.
Sophomore first baseman Preston Land took his turn next, slugging only his second triple of his career.
Murphy, who went 4-for-5 on Wednesday night, struck again in the fourth. His RBI double to right was the last hit Toler would allow. He was lifted for Chris Mackey after walking freshman third baseman Roby Price.
"It's funny how baseball works," Murphy said. "It's probably not the best day that Ive swung the bat. I wasn't necessarily hitting the seats, but some days you hit them hard and go 0-for-5 and sometimes you hit off the handle and go 4-for-5."
When Mackey entered the game, it wasn't much of a game. The 8-0 lead Kansas had collected by the fourth appeared to have the makings of a blowout.
Missouri State, however, was in no mood for a slaughter. Facing an 8-1 deficit, junior right-hander Andres Esquibel took over for Marks.
Esquibel watched his first pitch
sail over the batter's eye in centerfield off the bat of catcher Kyle Paul, Paul, hitting in the eight-hole, had his way with every Jayhawk pitcher he saw on Wednesday, going 4-for-4 with four RBI and two home runs.
"He's obviously trying to get out of it for him and for me," Marks said of his reliever. "Unfortunately for that kid, he made a mistake and he hit it. He's a pretty good hitter, I don't know why he's hitting eighth."
Paul's second bomb pushed the gap even tighter. He took Esquibel yard again in the top of the eighth, narrowing the Jayhawks lead, 8-5.
Despite their final efforts, Kansas kept the squad at bay.
"We need to win every game this week," Marks said. "This was a good start, hopefully we'll carry it into the weekend and carry it into the last week of the season. You never know what could happen after that."

BIG 12 BASEBALL
With only two weekends left in the Big 12 regular season, the best of the best from around the conference and the Kansas roster have emerged and are in line to receive postseason accolades.
Below are the top players the Big 12 and Kansas had to offer this season.
Big 12 Player of the Year:
Kyle Russell
Texas sophomore outfields
Big 12 Pitcher of the Year:
Kyle Nicholson
exas A&M senior right-hands
Texas sophomore outfielder
While Texas has pummeled its competition, Russell has pulverized opposing pitchers. The Longhorns haven't even reached postseason play yet and Russell has surpassed Texas' previous home run record of 20 with 26 on the season. He leads the nation in home runs by five. Russell is near the top of the Big 12 in five categories and he's registering on the national leaderboard, as well. His .880 slugging percentage and 162 total bases are first in the country.
Nicholson (10-1) has done it all for the Aggies this season. He's gone from middle reliever to closer and now to starter, but he's excelled this season regardless of his role. Nicholson's 1.71 ERA is the best in the Big 12 and his 77 strikeouts are fifth in the conference. He's been a workhorse with 94 2/3 innings pitched on the season but it hasn't affected his control with an impeccable 11:2 strikeouts-to-walk ratio. A two-time Big 12 Pitcher of the Week recipient this season and a candidate for the Golden Spikes and a Roger Clemens Awards, Nicholson is second in the Big 12 in wins and one of 13 pitchers in the nation with double-digit victories.
Big 12 Newcomer of the Year:
Justin Friend
Oklahoma State Athletic League
with the shaky starting pitching the Cowboys have had this season, they've depended on Friend (5-2) to hang onto leads when they hand him the ball. His 2.32 ERA is the best on the team out of pitcher with at least 17 innings pitched on the season and third in the Big 12. Friend has earned Big 12 Pitcher of the Week honors once this season and he has 61 strikeouts to only 11 walks. Although he has only seven saves on the season, Oklahoma State's offense has put most games out of reach, taking away save opportunities.

Big 12 Most Improved Player:
Blake Stouffer
Texas A&M junior infielder/outfielder
Scott Migl
Migl (6-1) has alternated in and out of Texas A&M's starting rotation, but he's found success whether starting or relieving. The Houston freshman has outshined most of the veteran pitchers in the conference with a 2.20 ERA, which is the second best in the Big 12, behind only teammate Kyle Nicholson. Perhaps most impressive about Migl is that he's learned to trust his defense in his first year at the collegiate level. With only 26 strikeouts on the year, he's held opposing batters to a .251 average by letting his defense play behind him.
Texas A&M right-hander
Big 12 Coach of the Year:
Tim Jamieson
Missouri
Stouffer was an everyday player for the Aggies last season, but he hit just .259 with three home runs and 15 RBI. This season he leads the Aggies with a .417 average to go along with eight home runs and a 1.159 OPS. Compared to the rest of the sluggers in the Big 12, his 80 hits and 69 RBI are tops and his average is the second best. His 17 doubles, 127 total bases and 18 stolen bases also register on the Big 12 leaderboard. Nationally, his RBI total is second overall. Stouffer has been named Big 12 Player of the Week three times, and is on the watch list for the NCBWA Dick Hower Trophy.
What Jamieson has done with the Tigers this season has been nothing short of miraculous. With ace starters Max Scherzer and Nathan Culp last season, Missouri finished seventh in the Big 12 and then lost Scherzer and Culp to the MLB Draft. But Jamieson held together what was left of his pitching staff and Missouri's team ERA has remained under four. And although Missouri's team batting average is down from last season, its scoring has gone up. As a result, Missouri sits in second place in the conference this season and is the only Big 12 team that has taken a series from first-place Texas.
Kansas Player of the Year Kyle Murphy Senior center fielder
Murphy is one of the few overachieving Hawkies this season. Coach Ritch Price asked that Murphy hit .250 this season to justify having his glove in the lineup, but Murphy went beyond those expectations, shooting up Kansas' batting order from the nine hole to the leadoff spot. He leads the Jayhawks with 62 hits, 42 runs, 90 total bases and 14 stolen bases, and his .326 average is the second-best on the team. He's also shown some pop with four home runs, 25 RBI and a .474 slugging percentage.
Kansas Pitcher of the Year:
Andy Marks
Sophomore left-hander
After eight starts where he gave up 14 home runs, Marks took over as Kansas' ace. He is second in the Big 12 with 83 strikeouts, and having pitched only 80 innings, he owns an astounding 9.34 strikeouts per nine innings. He's six strikeouts short of setting the sophomore record. Marks has also had some tough luck. Against Texas, with the wind blowing out, he gave up only four hits, but three were home runs. In his three starts before Wednesday, he allowed a total of four runs in 19 1/3 innings, but, with one Kansas run during that stretch, he had an 0-2 record to show for it. Already Kansas' best pitcher, Marks will only get better.
Kansas Newcomer of the Year:
Andres Esquibel
junior right-hander
Esquibel (6-3) had some rough outings here and there, but his 5.11 ERA is the second best on the team and his six wins are the team high. Since giving up five runs without recording an out April 3, he hasn't allowed an earned run in six of eight outings. Esquibel also became Kansas' top setup man. Without his ability to eat innings, having pitched 61 2/3 this season, Kansas' bullpen might be in shambles.
Kansas Freshmen of the Year:
Robby Price, third baseman, and
Wally Marcel, left-hander
Both Price and Marceli filled holes for the Jayhawks this season and came into their own during Big 12 play. Price was Kansas' starting third baseman from the onset, but against conference opponents he has the second-most hits, the third-best batting average and the third-highest on-base percentage on the team. Price also displayed a stellar glove at the hot corner with only nine errors. Marceli (4-2) began the season as a midweek starter, but took in the weekend rotation. In 24 innings pitched in April, he allowed three earned runs, dropping his ERA almost three points. In his last two starts of April, he helped Kansas avoid a Texas Tech sweep, and put Kansas in position to beat Oklahoma and win its first conference series of the season. Marceli joins Esquibel as the only Jayhawk pitchers with winning records.
Kansas Most Improved Player:
Kyle Murphy
Perhaps only Stouffier experienced a more drastic progression from last season than Murphy in the Big 12. This season he's upped his batting average 173 points, from .153 to .326, increased his slugging percentage 188 points, from .286 to .474, and boosted his on-base percentage 185 points, from .215 to .400. In less than twice the at-bats, Murphy has three times the runs, four times the hits, twice the home runs and nearly three times the RBL.

Doug Flutie joins Hall of Fame class
BY RALPH D. RUSSO ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK — Hail Flutie! The little quarterback who made a career of proving doubters wrong is now a Hall of Famer.

Doug Flutie was elected to the College Football Hall of Fame on Wednesday in his first year of eligibility, joining Ahmad Rashad and 10 other players honored by the National Football Foundation.
The 5-foot-10 Flutie won the Heisman Trophy in 1984 for Boston College and threw one of the most memorable passes in college football history. His 48-yard touchdown pass to Gerard Phelan as time expired gave the Eagles a 47-45 victory over Miami. The desperation 'Hail Flutie' toss and the sight of him leaping in the air as he sprinted down field to celebrate with his teammates has become timeless.

"I guess I did more than just throw one pass." Flutie said during
Did he ever. Flutie threw for 10,579 yards in his college career and led BC to a 10-2 record and Cotton Bowl victory during his Heisman season.
"It's my whole life of being the little guy and having a little chip on my shoulder, from year to year trying to prove myself, and at the end of the day to be inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame is very special honor for me," he said.
Flutie was elected with Rashad, a star receiver and running back at Oregon, and former Dartmouth linebacker Reggie Williams.
The other new Hall of Famers are: Oklahoma center Tom Brahaney, Michigan defensive back Dave Brown, Clemson linebacker Jeff Davis, Texas defensive back Johnnie Johnson, Ohio State quarterback Rex Kern, Indiana running back Anthony Thompson, Houston
defensive tackle Wilson Whitley, Southern California linebacker Richard Wood and Notre Dame defensive tackle Chris Zorich.
Herb Deromedi, who won 110 games as coach at Central Michigan
over 13 seasons, also was elected.
The latest class will be inducted at the National Football Foundation's awards banquet in December and will be enshrined at the Hall in South Bend, Ind., in 2008.

NASCAR
Young driver endures frustrating third season
BY MIKE HARRIS ASSOCIATED PRESS
When most people think about NASCAR's Hendrick Motorsports juggernaut, they envision four-time series champion Jeff Gordon or reigning champ Jimmie Johnson.
That doesn't concern Kyle Busch. He's just happy to be part of the stock-car powerhouse, racing in the shadows of his more famous teammates.

People keep asking him what he
"It was a rough ride," he said after viewing the video. "Your head bouncing around between the head-rests and stuff like that, anyway. From even holding on as much as you could, you still got it bounced around and tossed around so it was a rough ride. It went along a lot faster on the video than it did in real life."
But the youngster walked away without injury and, seemingly, without any mental scars, either.
Busch, who also is running a fairly heavy Busch Series schedule, has crashed hard six times already in 2007. Three of them have come in the developmental series, and that includes a truly spectacular — and frightening — crash two weeks ago at Talladega.
In that big wreck, Busch was hit and veered sharply into the outside wall, skidded on his roof back down the banking into the infield grass and began flipping and barrel-rolling as the car appeared to disintegrate around him. The hit was so hard, it cracked his head and neck

thought after he saw the crashed car, but Busch has yet to look at it in person.
After that wild ride, Busch had to get into his Cup car the next day for the feature race on the same track. And, again, he crashed.
“There’s not much I can do about it,” Busch said. “You just have to put it behind you and keep going.”
He did that by bouncing back to almost win at Richmond, trailing Johnson across the finish line, just ahead of Denny Hamlin and Gordon.
The crashes are only part of this season's frustrations, though.
Last month in Texas, where Busch crashed his primary car and had to switch to his backup, he also hit the wall in the backup after working his way through most of the 43-car field. Busch, thinking his race day was over, left the track even as his team was repairing the battered car.
Dale Earnhardt Jr., who was also out of the race, was recruited to finish out the event for the absent Busch and wound up moving him up one more spot and gaining three additional points for the young driver.

Junior Fatemeh Morshedzadeh juggles religious life with her studies at the University
I will never forget the time we shared this moment. I was a student, and I loved it so much. It was a special day for us, and it was filled with laughter and joy. We all went to the library and looked at the books. I found something very interesting in one of them. It was a book about a cat who had a wonderful story to tell. I watched the cat as it leaped over the table and sat down on the chair. The cat was so calm and curious. I couldn't help but feel grateful for that moment. It was a beautiful day, and it made me appreciate the little things in life.

SPECIAL SECTIONS EDITOR
AWELTLMER@KANSAN.COM
It's finally here and it's already here. I've been anticipating my own college graduation since the day I moved into Hashing Hall fall 2003, but it seems like yesterday that I walked to my 8:30 a.m. Chemistry class for the first time.
I took a lot of ownership in this special section because I'm one of you, seniors. I've really enjoyed my four years at the University of Kansas and I hope you have too.
This is my seventh semester working at The University Daily Kansan. I started as a correspondent and worked my way through many of the positions at the newspaper. I've had the pleasure of working with
The Kansan correspondents and I thought of stories that would not only entertain, but also commemorate our four years at the University.
30 great freshman, sophomores and juniors this year, putting together stories for The Kansan and all of its special sections this spring.
Make sure to read what to wear on the big day on page 3. On the same page, find out some of the big dos and don'ts of graduation day, including superstitions surrounding the Campanile.
Check out the awards some of your fellow seniors are receiving on page 3.
Get the stories of several graduating international students on page 7.
Find out more about your senior class president on page 5.
Take a look at the top 10 graduation movies to watch on page 6, and check some out when you need a study break during finals week.
I hope you'll check out the timeline we put together on pages 8 and 9 that highlights events both on campus and around the world that happened during our time at the University; maybe you'll even want to keep it.
Make sure you know what you're walking through when you cross over the threshold of the Campanile by reading its history on page 10.

WHAT TO WEAR
Stay stylish while walking the hill Find balance between comfortable, dressy to look your best, stand out from crowd
BY JASON BAKER
The most important thing about graduation isn't just having your family watch you pick up your degree, it's what to wear underneath your cap and gown. Here are some ideas on how to stay in style while walking down the hill.
The outfit under the gown:
The ceremony
is outdoors in May. Chances are the weather will be hot, so it's not a good idea to wear something dressy. Men should wear shorts and a polo, and women a nice top and skirt or nice shorts.
Overland Park senior, plans to dress to impress. "I'm going to wear an all-cotton summer strapless dress; the less cloth the better," O'Neil said. "I want to look nice and presentable but not dressy. I'll be sweating anyway."
Susan O'Neil,
Overland Park
The key is to find a balance. You don't want to look like you're going to prom or like you just rolled out of bed five minutes before the ceremony.
could easily recognize me in that huge crowd. It was pretty sweet." Spector said.
Nicholas Williamson, 2006 graduate, dressed up like Chancellor Robert Henmenway. "I shaved my head to look like I was balding and covered it with a huge straw hat," he said.
Stand out in the crowd:
Playing music can also get attention. Casey Thornburgh, 2006 grad.
Footwear is another issue. Flip-flops or plain tennis shoes are both acceptable. Remember, you have to walk along Memorial Drive and down the hill, so wearing high heels would be not a good idea. The key is to find a balance. You don't want to look like you're going to prom or like you just rolled out of bed five minutes before the ceremony.
With thousands of KU students graduating, it's hard for students to stand out so their friends and family can identify them from the stands. Some students have discovered ways to get noticed. Neil Spector, 2006 graduate from Buffalo Grove, Ill., wore his Michael Jordan basketball jersey at his graduation.
"Once I got into the stadium I unzipped my gown so my parents
uate, walked down the hill to her own beat.
"I wore cowboy boots and walked down the Hill playing Vitamin C's "Graduation Song" and Queen's "Don't Stop Me Now" on one of those iPod radios," she said. "It was a
blast."
Styling your cap:
If you think the plain cap looks boring, attach a Jayhawk to spruce it up. If you want to keep it simple, write your name on top so people know who you are. O'Neil put her nickname on her cap when she graduated from high school and plans to do something similar for this year's commencement.
Or you can come up with an idea that is unique and original. Zak Beasley, Kansas City, Mo., senior, plans on writing "Arms I Sing," which is the opening lines of Virgil's "Aenid." Beasley said there was a reason behind it.
"Because even though graduation is the end of college, it is the start of the rest of my life," he said.
Of course there are many ways to be stylish while you make your walk down the hill. But remember, look nice but comfy at the same time.

》 CAMPANILE
Keep the tradition Customs, superstitions surround bell tower
BY JASON BAKER
The Campanile, the bell tower that sits atop the hill near Marvin's Grove, overlooks the University of Kansas and Lawrence. But in May, this World War II memorial, built in 1951, is essential for the traditional commencement ceremony. There are a few traditions and superstitions about graduating that involve the Campanile.
Setting up for the big day - The commencement ceremony is always held on the Sunday after finals week at Memorial Stadium. From 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. on that day traffic on Memorial Drive is prohibited. The ban starts at midnight Saturday.
Walking through the Campanile — The ceremony is held at 2:30 in the afternoon, and 30 minutes prior to the start, the KU graduates assemble and line up along Memorial Drive. The graduates will walk toward the ceremony in pairs and the walk through both the Campanile doors down the path that leads to Memorial Stadium for the beginning of commencement. While they walk down the hill, it is traditional for the graduate's family and friends to stand on the hill to take pictures and or film them while they are walking down.
》 Bells chirming - It is a tradition on graduation day as the students walk through the Campanile, that the bells on top of the tower play all afternoon.
Superstitions of the Campanile:
»Walking through the Campanile early - The legend says it's bad luck if a student walks
» Kissing under the Campanile — Legend has it that if you kiss your significant other in the Campanile, then that will be the person you marry. But there are two options: one is you kiss them anytime during the day; the other is kissing them while the bells are ringing. Whichever you choose, kissing your honey in the Campanile could lead to getting hitched.
through the Campanile before they graduate, because he or she will not graduate if he or she does. If you do enter the campanile, leave from the same door and you still have a chance to graduate.
Edited by Ryan Schneider
So before you continue on the tradition, here are some dos and dorts of walking down the hill:
Dos and Don'ts
Get there early — That way you wont be the very last person to walk.
- Wear comfort shoes
  - You have to walk a lot to get to the ceremony and you want to be focused on that, not the blisters on your feet
Pair up with someone you like — it makes walking down the hill more fun.

BY RACHEL BURCHFIELD
It was a normal day in Melissa Horen's Public Opinion class when Marlesa Roney and Ann Ewesole, chairwomen of the Chancellor's Student Awards committee, walked through the door.
》 STUDENT RECOGNITION
Don't:
Nine seniors receive awards
Horen, an Overland Park senior, remembered that Roney and Eversole announced they had a very special award to give out. Horen was sure the award was going to go to one of the other student leaders in her class.
Recipients of Chancellor's Student Awards will sit on stage during commencement
Walk before you graduate — It's a superstition, but it also takes the fun out of it.
Take forever to walk down — Remember there are several thousand other students behind you in line.
Instead, it was Horen who was presented with the Rusty Leffel Concerned Student Award, becoming one of nine seniors who earned a Chancellor's Student Award this year.
"When they said my name I was
a very intense process, and we go through the nomination materials very carefully"

Other award recipients are Nick Sterner, Shawnee, recipient of the Rusty Leffel Concerned Student Award; Scott Ferguson, Overland Park, recipient of the Caryl K.

Alderson Memorial Award; Andrew Olive, Lincoln, Neb., and Michelle Rissky, Tecumseh, both recipients of the Class of 1913 Award; and Michelle Tran, Derby, recipient of the Alexis F. Dillard Student Involvement Award.
These nine award recipients really are wonderful representatives of their graduating class and the undergraduate student body," Eversole said.

Who's Who at KU
Murtaza Khan: 2007 senior class president
BY LINDSAY IGNATOWSKI
As he puts it on his Facebook status, Murtaza Khan is "almost done presidenting," yet many members of the senior class don't know the personal side of their senior class president.
SEE NAMES ON PAGE 6
Then and Now
"The game being between KU and K-State with us winning didn't hurt the memory either," Khan said.
Murtaza was inspired to take the position of senior class president because he wanted to institute change on campus.
Murtaza says his four years at the University have been filled with academic experiences, such as his position as scholarship chair on the Board of Class Officers, social growth and some crazy experiences. Khan says his craziest memory at KU is when his fraternity brothers "decided to take a run from our frat (Theta Chi) to the Chi Omega fountain at 4 a.m." in only their boxers. Few people know that he's also the author of a comedic Web site. He says his favorite memory from his senior year was being on the field for the presentation of the HOPE Award at the last home football game.

WHAT TO WATCH
TOP10 Graduation DVDs
JACKSON
BY JONATHAN ORLANSKY KANSAN GUEST COLUMNIST
Nothing hurts like memories, and nothing feels better. At times of transition, one cannot help but look into the past, and it's always less frightening than looking forward. Great films can make us look further into our own past, and allow us to look into our futures more levelheadedly. Here are 10 films about that most pronounced of transitions: graduation.
10. "Billy Madison"

IT'S A SMALL WORLD
International Jayhawks make Lawrence a home
Every student has to adjust to college life, but international students have an even bigger adjustment to make after coming to the U.S.
BY AMRUTA BHADKAM-
KAR
Being an international student in a country that you have only heard about and never visited can be quite a daunting task. It can be even worse when you have never stayed alone in your entire
life and all of a sudden you are responsible for your food, your laundry, your bank account and so many other things. I speak from personal experience when I say that it can be quite scary in the begin-
people everywhere are the same in
that we all just want to have fun."
"I have a broader view of the world and have learned that people everywhere are the same in that we all just want to have fun"
"In Peru, most people go to the soccer events for teams in the city or the national team games but not for the school's team," Proano said.
For Paola Adriazola, an international student from Bolivia, the one thing that she found unusual at the University was that the professors were so accessible and that they had office hours.
ning, until you learn to adjust. But there have been students who overcame all of this and were able to make the U.S. their second home. Now that they are about to graduate, the things that seemed strange in the beginning have now become quite normal and a part of everyday life.
Laura Proano, Lima, Peru,
senior, is one such student. When
she first came to the University
of Kansas, she found the school
spirit for sports, and how so many
students attended sporting events,
extremely strange.
Another thing that she considered strange was how in the U.S., there were rules for almost everything.
LAURAPROANO
Lima, Perusenior
"In Peru, we don't have that many restrictions," Proano said. "For example, clubs open until 6 a.m. or more if people want to keep partying. The fact that the drinking age is 21 really shocked me when I just got here."
"In Bolivia, the professors are not very well-paid and so they
But for her, coming to the University has wrought many positive changes in her, too.
"I think I have changed in my way of looking at the world," she said. "I have a broader view of the world and have learned that
don't interact much with the students outside class", Adriazola said.
One more thing that she found different about KU was the variety of studentgroups. According to her, in
Bolivian universities, so many student groups and opportunities for extracurricular activities were usually not available. Adriazola said being at the University had considerably improved her leadership skills.
"I wasn't much of a leader before coming to KU." Adriazola said. "But being here and holding leadership positions in the organizations has changed that."
It was just the opposite in the case of Afzal Syed, Hyderabad, India, senior. Syed said he did not find anything strange or unusual about the University but there
were certain aspects about the U.S. that he wasn't used to.
"When I came to America, I was surprised at the open spaces and the greenery here since there is not much of either where I am from in
cultures instead of just tolerating them.
"Teaching different classes for three semesters here at KU has greatly increased my self-confidence." he said.
Kedar Dimble, Pune, India senior, said the only thing he found unusual about the University was its size because the University that he transferred from was a lot smaller. In contrast with Proano, Adriazola and Syed, Dimble said being at the University had not changed him in any significant way.
All of these students have had different experiences at in the U.S. For most, it has been a long and extremely fruitful journey.
For the most part, I agree with them. Being an international student from Bombay, India, myself, I found there were many things about the University that I was not used to and that surprised me. There were many things about it that I found peculiar: small things such as the size of the University — because none of the universities back home are this big — the fact that students are allowed to eat in class and are allowed to leave the class whenever they like.
Even now, after being here for eight months, I still feel uncomfortable about leaving class for anything without taking permission and about not greeting the professor when he or she enters
"I wasn't much of a leader before I came here. But being here and holding leadership positions in the organizations has changed that."

India." Syed said. He also said being at the University changed him in a positive way because he met lot of international students, which he said made him appreciate different cultures more. He said he no longer stereotyped people from different cultures and said he celebrated different
the class.
These things might seem strange for the rest of you, but this is what I have been used to and what has been drummed into me in school.
Small things like these make a big difference
when you are in a strange country away from those you know and love. In my opinion, students who are able to make the transition are the ones who can face anything in life and come up trumps.

Traditional bell tower holds fond memories
Donations from devoted students, faculty, alumni helped fund construction as a World War II memorial to remember lost Jayhawks
BY SPENCER HEWITT
The Campanile has been a symbol of respect and remembrance since it first caught public interest 56 years ago. Its time as the most noticeable landmark on campus has brought it to life through tradition, superstition, music, memory and respect.
In 1945 many donors, alumni, students and faculty decided the University of Kansas needed a World War II memorial, what would be the 120-foot, bell-adorned, $343,000 Campanile. They built a centerpiece of the KU campus with the purpose of keeping the sacrifices of World War II permanently in the minds of Jayhawks. Donors now immortalized on campus, such as Fred Ellsworth and Forrest "Phog" Allen, contributed to a fund that in two years raised enough money to build the reminder.
As plans and construction began the Campanile's symbolism took on many new dimensions. The idea for a carillon tower was originally that of Olin Templin, former dean of the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences. Templin wanted to build the memorial to honor the struggles early Kansans faced, especially during the Civil War era. His efforts to build the tower were tireless: he even petitioned the federal government for money.
The tower was built with native Kansas limestone and the largest of the carillon's 53 bells was dedicated in Templin's memory.
The focus of the Campanile remained on commemorating the
sacrifices of World War II. Since its 1951 dedication, thousands of graduates have walked through the Memorial Room. The walls of the Memorial Room are covered with the names of the 277 Jayhawks killed during World War II.
The Campanile has become not only a symbol of World War II and Kansans; it has also become a symbol of the University, a symbol of graduation and a symbol of beauty raised from war. It's the site of solemn reminder and riotous celebration, a giant instrument
with a unique musical purpose, and it holds a reputation as the most distinguished landmark on campus. All of these give the Campanile a unique meaning for each Jayhawk.
"The Campanile is kind of an icon of graduation for me," said Chris Zamaripra, Great Bend fresh.

fessor of music, plays the carillon during graduation ceremonies, holidays, weddings and on Sunday evenings. She also teaches a handful of students who get to play on occasion.
While some see the Campanile as a symbol of graduation, other students see it as reminder of their great times on the hill sledding, playing Frisbee or just admiring its presence.
"The Campanile is kind of an icon of graduation for me."
While many KU students and alumni bring the Campanile to life through memories and traditions, one woman gets the privilege of bringing it to life through its music. Elizabeth Berghou, associate pro-
"It is a symbol of the university, of the traditions and the students," Berghout said. "It has a peaceful power."
As the University's third carillonneur Berghoug says that she enjoys playing at the yearly commencement ceremony.
CHRIS ZAMARRIPA Great Bend freshman
"I love the energy at graduation,"
Berghout said "People are always so happy to be graduating or knowing someone graduating; it's great."
The carillon is played by the striking wooden batons with
a closed fist. Each baton causes bells, some weighing around 13,000 pounds, to ring the very reverent sound of a carillon.
"If you want to get philosophical the best thing about the carillon is that it is a great instrument to mark the passing of time," Berghout said. "There are all these different reasons to play; some are happy, like weddings, some are memorials, some are nostalgic, but they all are significant parts of life. The carillon adds meaning to them."

》 EXPERIENCE KU
things KU students should do before they graduate
...according to the 2007 seniors
BY JACQUE LUMSDEN
Before graduation there are certain things every student must do. On top of the technical jazz passing a certain number of hours, taking the required courses and ordering graduation gear there are also the activities that make Lawrence and the University of Kansas unique.
10. Road trip with friends - Every student should experience this at least once.Nothing is more liberating then hopping in a car with your best buds,your favorite music and the best junk food,and driving for miles on open road.
9. Get published in the Free for All — Getting published basically means you're famous.
TASON WARE
KANSAN FILE PHOTO
There is something for everyone on Massachusetts Street, from coffee shops to shopping to restaurants. Even if your cash is low, enjoy the outdoors and do some people watching.
8. Spend a day on Massachusetts Street — There is something for everyone on Massachusetts Street. An entire day could be spent shopping and eating here. Even if the cash flow is low, there is still plenty to do. Bring your camera for some fun pictures or just walk and enjoy the outdoors.
1. Spend time at Potter Lake — and not just after throwing in a goal post. Take the time to enjoy this wonderful part of our beautiful campus. Lay out, play Frisbee or just hang out with friends.
6. Pull an all-nighter at a KU
library — Be on campus when the sun sets and stay there until the sun rises. The libraries are full of places to explore, and with the right amount of studying, it's possible to actually be there all night.
5. Spend a day at Clinton Lake — Take the time to drive outside of Lawrence and enjoy the natural beauty of the area. Pack a lunch, grab the sunscreen and water gear, and enjoy a day of fun on the water with friends.
A boy is lying on a bench, reading a book. Another boy is sitting on the bench, looking at something in his hands. A third boy is lying on the bench, holding a drink in his hand.
4. Tailgate for a football game at 8 a.m. — Wake up early and spend a day supporting Kansas athletics. Enjoy eggs when you start the tailgate and a hot dog later. Bring plenty of beverages and cheer the Jayhawks to victory.
1. Swim in the Chi Omega fountain — It's easy to tell when spring has sprung just by looking at the Chi Omega fountain. The tulips are in full bloom and students start to wade in the fountain. Go after class or in the middle of the night; any hour is a good time to spend in the fountain.
A. B. C. D. E. F. G. H. I. J. K. L. M. N. O. P. Q. R. S. T. U. V. W. X. Y. Z.
3. Camp out for a basketball game at Allen Fieldhouse

note.
I've lived in my current apartment for two years, and I have amassed a lot of stuff. Some of my possessions were gifts, and I'm sure I've purchased a few items, but the majority of my junk was pulled out of some dumpster or another.
Becka Cremer, co-editor
Each day, as I head to work,
I slow my car a bit so I can check out the goods in the three large dumpsters my neighbors fill each week. At first,
I was appalled by the valuable items I found: a digital camera,
Dolce & Gabbana sunglasses, a trumpet and — a week before Anna Nicole's death — a box of pristine Playboy magazines (two ANS covers included). But as I prepare to move out of my apartment and box up items to donate to Souls 4 Souls and Books for Africa (see page 7),
I'm grateful for the wastefulness of my neighbors. Next year, my apartment will be fully furnished (for free) by Aug. 1. Thanks, guys.

PROTECT YOUR FEET FROM FUNGUS
See a doctor if your feet itch, burn or sting. Your doctor can prescribe a lotion or powder to treat the infection, or an oral medication if your body is unresponsive to the topical treatments.
The fungal disease causes a stinging, burning sensation in between the toes and, if left untreated, can lead to blisters and cracked skin, according to the Mayo Clinic. Athlete's foot is highly contagious, so avoid sharing socks or shoes with infected people. If left untreated, the fungal infection can encourage the development of another bacterial infection that can break down good tissue, leaving soggy and eroded skin in between the toes.
Fungi called dermatophytes linger in unclean communal showers, roomers and fitness centers. These organisms can cause athlete's foot if you go without shower shoes or wear sweat-soaked socks for too long.

WHETHER YOU'RE MOVING OUT OR MOVING ON, PURCHASE HEALTH INSURANCE
One-third of the 45.8 million Americans who don't have health insurance are between 18 and 24 years old, according to aetna.com. Because life is unpredictable, purchase health insurance to protect yourself from financial ruin.
Most students should be covered by their parents' insurance if they're enrolled full-time and are less than 23 years old. For students who aren't covered by their parents' plans, the University of Kansas offers basic health insurance for about $70 a month and more comprehensive health insurance for about $160 a month.For more information, visit www.studenthealth.ku.edu.
Graduates who were previously covered by their parents' policies have 60 days to contact their insurance
companies and request an extension to maintain coverage after graduation. Under the federal Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act, students are eligible to receive an extension of up to three years by paying the monthly premium and a two-percent administrative fee. Grads who weren't covered by their parents' insurance should buy a short-term insurance policy, which usually runs about $80 a month.
Tip: Try to set up a higher deductible (the amount you pay if you get hurt) to get a lower premium (the price you pay each month), says Jim McLaughlin of Thomas County Insurance Agency, 843 New Hampshire St.

Clean without getting your hands too dirty
by Elyse Weidner
Using a disinfectant wipe to sanitize a table in her room was the only cleaning effort Emily Rush made this year. One wipe, one table, one time. Rush, Plymouth, Minn., junior, says cleaning is simply something she's never been good at, or had the interest and motivation to do.
Cleaning your crib becomes a necessity, however, when you're moving out of a dorm, apartment or house and want to ensure the return of your security deposit and avoid additional cleaning charges. Picking up a few routine cleaning habits can also cut back on illnesses picked up indoors and make vacating your pad easier when moving day arrives.
"Anemyproomisprettymuch a breeze to clean, unless you've lathered mud on the walls," says Jeff Bredenberg, author of How to Cheat at Cleaning. So whether you're moving in or out of a residence, try to arrange the move so there's a period of time when everything is out of the home except you and a box full

Hand-held vacuum

Because hauling around bottles of liquid cleaners can be a hassle, especially during a move, Bredenberg suggests purchasing cleaners in the form of disposable wipes. Wipes are a better use of space and easier to transport, he says, and with one wipe you have a cleaning cloth with a pre-measured amount of cleaner.
of cleaning supplies.
After you've gathered the necessary supplies, Bredenberg says the most efficient strategy for cleaning any family, dining, living or bedroom is to start at the perimeter of the room and then work your way toward the center. To clean a furnished room, move all lamps, chairs, sofas and other furniture to the center of the room before beginning the peripheral cleaning.
When the outer-edge of the room is clear, begin to dust, working from the top of the room to the bottom. "Get your dusting device and clean the top two to three feet of the room, across doorways and wall hangings," Bredenberg says. After letting the dust settle, clean off everything at mid-height, such as entertainment centers and shelves, and finally the lower portion of the room's border such as baseboards. At this point in the cleaning process, he says, you've moved 95 percent of the dust in the room to the floor and can easily pick it up with a vacuum.
After vacuuming the rim of
the room, move all furniture back in place and vacuum the center of the floor, Bredenberg says. If time permits, pick three objects for incidental cleaning such as a dusting a picture frame, television screen or window.
The number-one priority of cleaning is safety and sanitation, Bredenberg says, so cleaning a kitchen or bathroom should be centered on eliminating germs that are literal dangers.
When sanitizing the kitchen, Bredenberg recommends using a disinfecting cleaner to spray down the kitchen sink, counters where food is prepared, the handle of the refrigerator and the telephone nearest to the kitchen. In the bathroom, focus
most of your cleaning energy on sinks, faucet handles and toilets
Beth Brandsted says she does a thorough cleaning of her house once a week or so. Last year when Brandsted, Topeka senior, lived in her sorority house, she was the only resident who owned — and actively used — a bottle of 409.
"It's not that my roommates are dirty," she says. "But because I'm more of a neat freak, I'm the one mopping the floors and cleaning out the sink only because it bothers me first."
For the sake of your physical well-being and financial status, follow Bredenberg's advice on how to cheat at cleaning or find someone to do the dirty work for you.
WASH YOUR SHEETS FOR SAFETY
If dust, dust mites, animal dander or pollen abound in a home, occupants put themselves at risk for a number of allergic reactions, according to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission. To lessen
the risk of allergic reactions and control household dust, the commission recommends washing bedding in hot water every seven to 10 days and avoiding sleeping with feather or wool-stuffed pillows.

Andy McKee's new album Gates of Gnomeria will be released in August.
Q&A with Andy McKee
I never really got into his show. Personally, I always thought it was kind of lame, but he really dug my music and was super nice. The whole thing was a result of the YouTube stuff; he'd seen my videos and just wanted to see me on his show.
Q: YOU HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO PLAY ON CARSON DALY'S SHOW A FEW MONTHS AGO. WHAT WAS THAT LIKE?
Q&A
China and promote a tour over there. Since then I've played in Japan, Belgium, England, Canada, Germany and Austria.
Kansas has watched Topeka native Andy McKee develop into one of the most virtuosic fingerstyle guitarists around in recent years. McKee was the youngest competitor to ever finish in the top three at the Fingerstyle Guitar Championship in Winfield in 2001, and he finished first in the 2004 Kansas Fingerstyle Guitar Competition. Recently, he's gained international attention with his performances overseas and from music videos on YouTube; McKee's original compositions and arrangements are among the highest rated music videos on the site.
Q: HOW DID YOUTUBE GET THINGS ROLLING FOR YOU?
There's a guy running my label that had the idea to show me performing online. My song "Drifting" started getting a lot of attention and eventually YouTube decided to put it on their front page. It really just blew up crazy. In the past couple of weeks a few of my other videos passed "Drifting" and now I have all of the top three spots. This really-huge-breakout sort of thing is just unique for a guitar player and someone on an indie label. The fact that it went to the front page is unbelievable.
Q: YOU'VE BEEN PLAYING FAR FROM HOME FOR A COUPLE OF YEARS. WHERE HAVE YOU GONE?
Originally I got an e-mail in 2003 from a publishing company in Taiwan. They offered to publish transcriptions of my music in Taiwan and
I am very grateful for the opportunity to share my passion for music with you. I hope you enjoy our songs and celebrate this beautiful time together.

Moving out? Don't throw unwanted items away — donate them to a charitable organization.
by Courtney Hagen
Right about now Jennifer Farwell is wading through a mountain of old clothes, furniture and books. Farwell, Leavenworth senior, is graduating next week and moving out of the place she's called home for the past few years. She's heading off to the Peace Corps and she has a lot of stuff to get rid of.
Instead of selling her old items on eBay to make some fast cash or dumping them in the trash, Farwell is considering donating to the Goodwill, 2200 W. 31st St., and the Lawrence Public Library, 707 Vermont St. She's donated before and likes knowing her stuff is going to be enjoyed by someone else.
"The benefits of donating are that someone will be able to get use out of something that you don't need anymore," Farwell says. "It's nice to give other people stuff you know they'll use and it feels kind of good to shed all the old stuff."
As you're leaving town, join Farwell in donating your old
stuff. From books and shoes to business suits and nearly every item in an apartment or dorm, local and national organizations accept donations to redistribute to those who need them. The following organizations represent just a few ways to make the most of the move out.
Soles 4 Souls
Soles 4 Souls began in 2004 as a relief effort for victims of the Asian tsunami. Wayne Elsey, the organization's founder, was watching CNN and saw a single shoe float by during coverage of the disaster. Elsey worked in the footwear industry and quickly rallied friends, coworkers and even competitors to send hundreds of thousands of pairs of shoes overseas to help, says Chris Carmichael, communications director for Soles 4 Souls.
More than a year later, the organization regrouped to send about 750,000 pairs of shoes to aid victims of Hurricane Katrina.
Since then, Soles 4 Souls has been operating out of two warehouses to collect shoes to send to places in need all over the world. In the past three years, the organization has redistributed more than 2.5 million pairs of shoes.
Soles 4 Souls takes any pair of wearable shoes with no split seams or holes.
"Basically, we'll take them if you'd still wear them," Carmichael says. "For individual donations, the shoes almost always stay in the United States. Some people think that one pair of shoes won't make a difference, but it does because it will mean something to one person."

Soles4Souls Inc.

Roanoke, AL 36274
Books For Africa
For almost two decades, Books For Africa has distributed much needed books and educational supplies to
impoverished regions in Africa. Last year alone the organization shipped more than two million books, says Kristin Kane, a program associate at Books For Africa. The books go to underfunded libraries or community centers that don't have any books.
"These books greatly impact the community because they put materials in hands of children who don't have any," Kane says. "They promote literacy, education and leadership, and give these communities better opportunities in life."
Books For Africa takes individualdonations—including old textbooks — but requires that all books be less than 20 years old and not written only for American readers. Donations and shipping costs are tax deductible.
For more information, visit www.booksforafrica.org or send books to:
Books For Africa Warehouse
715 Minnehaha Ave.
St. Paul, MN 55106
Dress For Success
Dress for Success Since 1997, Dress For Success has worked to promote financial independence and professional stability for women. The organization provides business attire and accessories for disadvantaged women to wear to job interviews and build a professional wardrobe. Dress For Success also helps with career development once women begin working.
"It has a really big impact on women of all ages and backgrounds," says Suzanne Armstrong, a spokeswoman for the organization. "We don't try and just help women get back in the work force. We try to help them get on track and gain their independence."
Dress For Success accepts individual donations such as suits, blouses, shoes, handbags and other accessories. The organization has an affiliate in Wichita and more information can be found on their Web site at www.dressforsuccess.org.
They suggest calling ahead to see what items are most needed, but donations can be sent to the Wichita affiliate at:
Dress For Success Wichita
1422 High St.
Wichita, KS 67203
Goodwill
Goodwill Industries takes donations of nearly any kind, excluding some bedding, large appliances and stained clothing.
The organization is one of the world's largest non-profit providers of education and materials to people in need. Goodwill has stores across the United States to carry on their purpose.
Lisa Doherty, an employee at the Lawrence Goodwill, says she notices a rush of donated items around the end of the school year. The store is open for donations from 7 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday through Saturday and from noon to 4 p.m. on Sunday.

GRAD CHECK
Tom Van Holt
Year: 1985
Hometown: Rochester,
N.Y.
Degree: Political Science
19
Back in the day: After two years at Alleghey College in Meadville, Penn, Tom Van Holt took a year off to bike across the United States. He was so impressed by Kansans and their way of life that he transferred to the University of Kansas for his last two years of school. While at the University he served as a Resident Assistant in McCollum Hall, where he started a book-exchange program to help students avoid bookstore "rip-offs," but the local bookstore shut him down, he says.
The grad life: Van Holt turned down a chance to work with the KU citymanagementprogrambecause he didn't know what he wanted to do with his life. Instead, he set off to find his way. Van Holt lived in California with his family, traveled to India, attended the University of Oregon, worked in Alaskan fisheries, worked as the director of Grace Pearson Scholarship Hall at the University, taught English
in Thailand and joined the Army Special Forces during the Gulf War
In 1995, he was trimming trees, moving furniture and doing other odd jobs in Lawrence between his travels. Moving was the most lucrative, he says, so he started Starving Artists Moving, 945 Illinois St. The name wasn't a gimmick, he says — he and his friends were actually poor and many of them were artists. The same year his first book, Alaska Passage, was published. In 1999, he wrote his second book, Stargazing: What to Look for in the Night Sky.
Today: On Dec. 26, 2004, Van Holt was snorkeling 40 miles off
the shore of Thailand when the Asian tsunami hit. The tsunami lasted two-and-a-half hours and threatened the lives of members of his snorkeling group. When he returned to Lawrence, Van Holt started a relief fund to help victims of the tsunami and he has been back to Thailand four times since then to help.
Van Holt has visited more than 20 foreign countries, and with approximately three months of the year off and a better-than-average salary, he continues to travel and take on service projects like helping victims of hurricanes Katrina and Rita. He has pledged all of the growth in his business to charity.
PHOTO COURTESY OF TOM VAN HOLT Tom Van Holt, second from right, poses with fellow tsunami survivors.
He says: Van Holt says he's always loved Kansas, ever since he biked through the state over 20 years ago. Although he doesn't agree with the state's politics, he says Kansas isn't inferior to the coasts like a lot of people think."Life is easy in Kansas," he says. People here can make a living without constantly scrambling to get by, it's less crowded and it's a great place to work on his books, he says. He is now writing a book on his experience surviving the tsunami in Thailand.

LAWRENCE
Meet one officer who's keeping you in check
by Sam Carlson
Police LAWRENCE
Lawrence will soon see thousands of students pack up and leave for the summer. Mark Leisten will just see fewer cars.
"Other than the traffic, you really don't notice," Leisten, a Lawrence police officer, says about the students' departure.
Leisten currently works from 7 a.m. to 3 p.m., meaning he doesn't experience this town's vibrant nightlife during his shifts. That will change in October, however, when he begins working during the wee hours of the morning from midnight to 7 a.m. Many officers rotate schedules every few months, Leisten says.
THE LAWRENCE POLICE DEPARTMENT: A TIMELINE
Leisten has patrolled the streets of Lawrence for 11 years. When classes let out for

the three-month break, he says the only real change he's seen in the past while working the late shift comes after the sun goes down, when Lawrence transforms from hot spot into ghost town.
Since 1996, Leisten, 38, has been reporting for duty for the same reason he became a police officer in the first places to help people.
But it's also the simple things that keep Leisten coming back each day.
He enjoys the freedom he has and says he doesn't have to worry about what he's going to wear in the morning.
"I don't think I could work behind a desk," he says.
And although law enforcement is serious work, Leisten says he tries to keep a sense of humor.
"You've got to come to work and have fun every day," leisten says. "Once you start hating it, that's when you make it long and miserable for everybody."
Days that Leisten can always count on for fun come at the beginning of each school year during move-in week.
Take a bunch of one-way streets, add hundreds of people who aren't familiar with the area and laughter will surely ensue.
The sight of someone driving the wrong way on a one-way street puts a smile on Leisten's face every time, he says.
Perhaps no other time of year is Lawrence more obviously a college town than when students come back to campus to begin the fall semester.
"That just cracks me up," he says.
But Leisten says that usually Lawrence is just like any other town; it just happens to have about 25,000 students living in it.
Leisten graduated from the University of Kansas in 1996 with a degree in crime and
delinquency.
His path to graduation wasn't a straight one, as he left the University and joined the Army Reserves after one year of college.
With a greater sense of discipline and a more structured life thanks to the military,Leisten returned to the University and earned his degree by completing three 20-22 hour semesters and taking summer classes, he says.
Patrolling the streets all day,
Leisten gets a sense of how much Lawrence has changed over the years. He remembers when Kasold Drive was

considered "way, way out there." Now, he sees housing and developments inching closer to Clinton Lake. he says.
But some things about this college town never change.
Although underage drinking and raucous parties are two things he's forced to deal with, Leisten makes an effort to be lenient, he says.
Some situations, however, call for a more stern approach.
"If I walk up to a house with 500 people, party's over," Leisten says.
But a gathering of 15 or 20 friends who might have the music up a bit too loud won't be a big problem, he says.
"I try to be the nicest cop in town."
Mark Leisten graduated from the University in 1996 and has served as a Lawrence police officer for 11 years."I try to be the nicest cop in town," he says.
FROM BADGE TO FATIGUES
Lawrence Police Officer Mark Leisten served in Iraq from March 2003 to May 2004 as a flight platoon leader and piloted a Chinook helicopter, in which he recorded more than 350 hours of combat flight time, he says. Leisten is still in the Army Reserves and has reached the status of Captain.
Leisten shares his war experience with another Lawrence police officer,Charles
"He had to make hard decisions, stand up and be the bad guy," Cottengim says of Leisten's leadership in Iraq. "Even though they hated him for it, it was the right thing to do."
Doing the right thing, no matter how unpopular it might be, is a quality that Leisten tries to display as a police officer, he says.

Advice for student parents:
Time management is the biggest, most useful chore. So use a planner to organize your time and "Get up early and go to bed late."

Support: "In one way I'm a single parent and in another way I'm not because of my roommate. In our household we constitute a family. She's a single mom with teenagers. So the five of us, we're a good family. We help each other. I help her daughters, she helps my son. We lean on each other for emotional support. We're like sisters. I couldn't have come back to school without her."
Advice for student parents:
"You need to have the mindset that everything is going to be temporary for a while. From money to the fits the kids throw, every thing will just pass and eventually you're going to keep plugging along and you're going to get there."

"At two or three in the morning, when I'm up writing a paper and I'm exhausted beyond belief, sometimes I cry because the stress gets to me. I think about the little girl that sleeps upstairs who says, 'Mommy, I'll be so proud of you when you graduate.'"
With tears in her eyes, Christine McNicholas, Dallas senior, talks about the motivation she derives from her 4-year-old daughter, Kaley Grace. McNicholas took Kaley to last year's graduation ceremony to show her what "mommy" is trying to accomplish as a student and says the experience stuck with her daughter. Now, when McNicholas explains to Kaley how important it is for her to be good and go to bed early so her mom can do her homework, Kaley reminds her mom that she'll need to get a babysitter for graduation, saying "I can't be by myself when you walk with Baby Jay down the hill."
McNicholas became a single mother four years ago, after she and her ex-husband divorced. This is her second go-around at the University of Kansas. After attending the University from 1995 to 1998, she met and married her now ex-husband in Milwaukee while working in the airline industry. After the divorce, she moved back to Kansas to live with her parents and continued to work as a flight attendant. She says she would routinely cry on the way into work because she felt guilty about leaving her daughter with her parents for days at a time while she flew to places like Baltimore and Chicago. McNicholas worked in Kansas for a few months before she and Kaley reached a literal breaking point.
Kaley broke her leg when she fell off a kitchen countertop. McNicholas says she didn't have any sick days to take, so she gave Kaley and her insurance card to her mother to take to the emergency room. She says she cried even more than usual on the way into work that day because she knew that even if she explained to her supervisors that she needed to take care of
her daughter, they still wouldn't let her go. She says the airline industry is often inconsiderate and unforgiving, expecting its employees to perform their duty no matter what the circumstances. She says she would have lost her job if she stayed behind to take care of Kaley.
"That was an all-time low for me," says McNicholas, who quit working in the airline industry soon after. "I couldn't have that situation where my work took so much precedence over me being there for my child."
Life as a single mother is difficult. Bearing the emotional and physical burden of parenting is a grueling job when there are two parents, but when one parent doesn't have the support of the other to relieve some of that burden, the weight can be overwhelming.
Even simple, everyday activities like bringing in the groceries become a complicated ordeal with children, says Jennifer Sinquah, Norman, Okla., senior. She says if her 3-year-old son, James, falls asleep in the car on the way home from the grocery store, she doesn't want to wake him to make him walk inside because he'll become grumpy. So she carries him, but he has to use the bathroom before she lays him down and then she still needs to get the groceries.
That complication added to every aspect of life — from getting the mail and making dinner to getting to work on time — makes it difficult for single moms to find time alone to relax. Sinquah says that it's impossible to even take a shower without a little knock on the door, "Mommy, mommy, mommy. What are you doing?" "Just give me 10 minutes!"
Many single moms wish they could share the joys of parenting along with the burden. Sinquah says that sometimes she really wants another parent around so she can say to him, "Hey, look
"All of this would be simpler if you just had someone else to ask to carry the kid in while you get the groceries or watch him in the car while you use the restroom," she says.
at what he just did," or to have someone around to tell about James" imagination, how he pretends to be a dinosaur one day and a lake monster the next.
"Or..." chimes in James from a few feet away. His long brown hair is tied back in a ponytail, and although he sat patiently during his mom's entire interview, he was apparently listening and waiting to interject. "Or Roo," James continues, pretending to be the baby kangaroo character from Winnie the Pooh.
"Am I Kanga when you're Roo?" Sinquah asks, pretending along with James that she is Roo's mother.
"Yeah, Roo?"
"Yeah," the boy replies.
"Kanaq?"
"Can I watch another movie," James asks. Sinquah walks over to perform one more of the countless tasks that are demanded of her every day during her duties as a single mother.
Amanda Boyer, Kansas City,
Mo., junior, also says she waits until her 23-month-old daughter,
Bella, goes to sleep to do her school work.
"If I don't have time to go to bed, I literally don't go to bed sometimes." McNicholas says. "I'm willing to sacrifice sleep. It's pretty much the only thing I have to give up because everything else has to get done."
Sinquah became a single mother when she divorced her ex-husband, who was in the military and now lives in Arizona. She had just given birth to James and wound up living with her mom for two years in Oklahoma before returning to the University of Kansas in 2005. She had attended the University off and on from 1991 to 1995.
"Time to do everything is probably the biggest challenge, and that includes sleep," Boyer says. "Time management is very
Both Sinquah and McNicholas say that pretty much the only time they are able to study is after their children go to sleep or when friends help them out with childcare. They routinely pull all-nighters to get assignments done on time.
Boyer became a single mother after she unexpectedly became pregnant during a year off from attending Avila University. On the encouragement of her current boyfriend, whom she lives with, she moved to Lawrence a year ago to attend the University. She says her boyfriend is the only father that Bella has ever known and that her biological father is not a part of Bella's life.
important. I'm still not very good at it. Sleep is what ends up getting lost."
Monique Mack, Philadelphia junior, doesn't mention sleep deprivation as a concern when she talks about the balance she must strike between her roles as a student and the parent of her 11-year-old son, B.J. She talks about the intense focus required as both a single mother and a student.
"Regardless of what happens, you still have to keep your eyes on that prize," she says. "You have a goal that you're trying to reach and sometimes it can be a long
ways and sometimes you get off your path and things happen, but you've just got to stay focused and not give up.
"I just knew that in order for me to provide for my son, to give him opportunities and to give us a fighting chance as a family, I needed to get my education," she says.
Mack, Boyer, McNicholas and Sinquah come from four distinct backgrounds with histories that include violence and drug abuse and time spent as a military wife and flight attendant. But all four say that even though being a single parent greatly complicates their lives as students, their children represent their greatest motivation to overcome the challenge. They all talk about the balance that must be struck between the two roles but also how rewarding each role can be.
"It's worth it to be a parent and it's worth it to finish school, whether you're a parent or not," Boyer says.

Advice for student parents:
"No more partying, at least not on a regular basis. You still need to get out every once in a while. Moms need to do that anyway, whether they're a student or not, but being a student can add more stress. So save your sanity and get a sitter or a family member, even if it's just for a couple of hours."

TOMORROW'S news
n
A Mother's Day history: From goddesses to gift cards
Many people believe that the foundations of Mother's Day — which is tomorrow — can be found in the celebrations of ancient civilizations. Egyptian, Greek and Roman festivals paid tribute to mother goddesses like Isis and Rhea. The festivals were celebrated at approximately the same time in the spring as Mother's Day is today.
The celebration was adapted to Christian beliefs as it spread through Europe during the first millennium. It evolved from a recognition of individual "Mother Churches" to become a broader celebration of all mothers, known as Mothering Day, in 17th-century England.
Europeans migrating to the New World, however, did not bring the tradition with them, and Mother's Day in America was not even a concept until 1870 when Julia Ward Howe thought of reintroducing the
holiday as a way for mothers to promote peace during the aftermath of the Civil War. In 1908, the first Mother's Day celebration took place in Grafton, W.V., at Andrews Methodist Church, which has now become an international Mother's Day shrine.
In 1914,President Woodrow Wilson dedicated the second Sunday in May as Mother's Day. Today, Mother's Day is celebrated in at least 100 countries worldwide on dates that range from February to December.
In the United States, Mother's Day is one of the most commercially successful holidays of all time. This Mother's Day, the National Retail Foundation predicts the holiday will become a $14 billion industry. Retailers report that it is second only to Christmas in the amount of gifts given and restaurants claim it's their busiest day of the year. Florists report
their highest sales during the month of May and there is a peak in long-distance telephone calls around Mother's Day.

It could signify some sort of problem, but not necessarily a sexual one...it's the fact that the first time, and after knowing you for only a few weeks, he would propose this Lion King sequel.

LOOK BEFORE YOU LEAP
Find out what you're getting into before you say, 'I do... want to live with you.'
by Matthew Foster
Choosing an apartment and signing a lease gets a little complicated when your roommate-to-be is also your honey. Though some disagree, these two couples say they believe trying out the waters before marriage is a good idea.
Ric Rosenfield,Cheshire,Conn.,graduate student, moved to Lawrence three years ago to continue a two-year relationship with his now fiancé, Meg Williams, Clifton Park, N.Y., graduate student. Rosenfield says he was living the basic bachelor lifestyle of eating out every day and drinking when Williams graduated from college and said, "I'm moving to Kansas. Do you want to come?"
"We were at a point in our relationship where he was going to move here with me or that was it." "Williams says." "We didn't
even discuss him living in a different apartment."
Moving to the middle of the country where they didn't know anybody was stressful, and Rosenfield and Williams say it was nice they had each other to rely on. Compared to moving to Lawrence, the transition to living together went
When deciding to cohabitate, Lerner suggests couples consider the advice of others, but says expert opinion and research can't determine what's best for the individual. Individuals in a relationship need to do some soul searching and take the decision seriously, recognizing that the relationship will be more difficult to get out of once they are living together, she says.
able to renegotiate these and other issues over time.
smoothly. Williams says that the only issues that arose after the couple moved in together were everyday concerns, such as housework.
The "couple's contract" is often unspoken, says Harriet Lerner, clinical psychologist and author of The Dance of Anger. Couples living under the same roof, whether they are married or not, have a host of complex issues to navigate that range from when to eat dinner or have sex to responsibility for household chores, she says. Couples do best when they are
The number of unmarried couples living together increased tenfold between 1960 and 2000 and increased 72 percent between 1990 and 2000, according to the Alternative to Marriage Project. Williams and Rosenfield, who will marry later this month, say they occasionally discussed issues such as monogamy but never sat down and formally laid out a framework for their live-in relationship.
"Living together is an important decision which should reflect your deepest values, priorities and desires, along with your best thinking," Lemer says."Living together before marriage is a great idea for many couples and not for others."
"LIVING TOGETHER IS AN IMPORTANT DECISION WHICH SHOULD REFLECT YOUR DEEPEST VALUES, PRIORITIES AND DESIRES, ALONG WITH YOUR BEST THINKING."
HARRIET LERNER, CLINICAL PSYCHOLOGIST
A. J. Henry, Topeka sophomore, says it only makes sense that people choose to live together before jumping into marriage because views on the subject have changed.
"Now it's a little bit different,and if you have the opportunity to live with someone before
you spend the rest of your life living with them, then why not try it out," he says.
Kelsey Cline, Lawrence sophomore, and Henry will move in together this summer. The couple met during their freshman year and say their relationship has progressed over the last year and a half to a point where they practically already live together, so life won't be all that different. It will just be simpler and make more economic sense.
"I feel like it'll be the same." Cline says. "It's just that we'll be sleeping in the same house and bedroom every night."
Cline and Henry say moving in together is the only place their relationship can go at this point. They see living together as a way to test whether they are as compatible as they seem to be and avoid making a mistake that could lead to divorce.
"Marriage is a huge thing," Cline says, "and if I get into a situation like that, I don't want to end up another divorce statistic."

1. Be very clear about what you expect. Do you see cohabitation as a trial that will help you decide about marriage? You should both have a clear sense of what moving in together means to each of you.
2. Live together because your relationship is going well, not to try to make it better. Similarly, don't marry your cohabiting partner because you hope marriage will change her.
SIX THINGS TO DO BEFORE YOU MOVE IN
3. Agree on a "living together agreement" to help clarify your expectations and define how you'll handle finances and property.
4. Take a couples' education class before or during cohabitation. Research suggests it helps with conflict resolution.
5. Use birth control. It's a lot more fun and romantic to get married because you want to, not because you
accidentally get pregnant.
6. If you're planning to get married, talk about what will change and what will stay the same. Talk about marriage with people whom you respect who have been married a long time.

WHAT it'sLIKE TO MOVE FROM A DIFFERENT COUNTRY
When Lucy Stun, Belize City, Belize, graduate student, moved to the United States to go to school at the University of Kansas, she wasn't sure what to expect. Stun grew up in a country with fewer opportunities than the United States and a very different reality. "In a third-world country, you see things you wouldn't normally see," Stun says. "There are a lot of large families who struggle to support themselves."

One thing that surprised Stun when she moved to Kansas was that her roommates would frequently leave the doors unlocked. You could
Today, after several years in the States, Stun says she's happy she made the decision to move. "It's a real eye-opener," she says. "It's a good growing-up experience. I always knew that if I didn't like it here, I could go back." Stun only sees her parents twice a year, but she says she's learned to figure things out on her own. "You learn a lot about yourself," she says. "You don't have a safety net."

35 TIPS FOR MOVING OUT
NOTICE
Moving out can be a struggle,but these tricks can make the time less stressful
by Laura Evers
10
As you prepare to move home for the summer or into a different residence, follow this advice to protect your stuff and your wallet.
Pack it good
1. Don't pack anything you can't lift yourself.
2. Put heavier things in a smaller box. This way you avoid packing a large box with 200 pounds worth of books.
3. To prevent boxes from caving in, don't stack anything on top of boxes with extra room or packing materials in them.
4. Fill all your boxes to the top.
Don't have any dead weight.
5. Clothes can be packed in wardrobe boxes that will protect them during moving.
6. If you hire a moving crew,make sure you aren't still packing when they arrive. If everything is ready to go, they can get in and out faster and your wallet will thank you for it.
7. Keep a record of everything you give the moving crew to ensure nothing was misplaced during the move-in.
8. Plan ahead. Don't wait till the week of move-out to reserve your truck. You will be the last in line and unfortunately get the worst service. Also, you might not be able to reserve your truck in time.
9. Pick boxes that are appropriate for the size of each item. For example, put small items in a smaller box.
11. Clean off all furniture before a moving crew arrives. This way, you won't be charged for the time it takes to clear it off.
10. When hiring a moving crew, mark what room you want each box to go so the crew doesn't have to move everything again when you get there.
12. When moving yourself, pack a truck with boxes toward the front of the vehicle, along with dressers and other large items. Top it off with miscellaneous items.
13. Make sure there are only a few people in your residence on moving day. There is a bigger risk of things getting damaged in the moving process when more people
are around.
14. If you are the only person at your home who is moving out, make sure your belongings are clearly separated from your roommates! This will make the process faster and save you money if you've hired an hourly moving crew.
15. It is helpful to have someone at the location you're moving to when the movers arrive. This person can direct movers where to place furniture and miscellaneous items.
16. Save spots for the moving truck outside of your home. Try to park in the location closest to your door, so you can give them your spot once they arrive.
17. A box is not packed properly if you can shake it and things fly around. If anything, fill the extra space with paper.
18. To wrap fragile things such as dishes or collectables, line the bottom of a box with towels and wrap everything with tissue paper. Make sure to mark the box as fragile.
19. Don't collect random boxes for moving day. Buy all your boxes at the same retailer so that they are a consistent size and easier to stack.
20. It helps the moving crew if all boxes are already positioned by the front door. This gives easy access and saves time.
Reclaim your deposit
21. Make sure your apartment is in the same condition as it was given to you.
23. If at all possible, fix everything yourself. Just remember though, if it is not properly done, you will still be charged for it.
22. Make a copy of your check-in inspection so you will remember what you are and are not responsible for.
24. Ask your apartment complex or dorm if they will provide free touch up paint. That way, if you try to re-paint something it will not be in a different color.
25. Ask your apartment complex or dorm if they expect you to clean the carpets.
26. If you have planted a garden outside your apartment,
check with the complex to see if it needs to be taken out before you move out.
28. Once you move into your new place, you will have approximately 48 hours to make sure you've written down everything you could be charged for later. Be very descriptive so that once you move out, you won't be given a huge bill for repairs.
27. After doing a final cleaning, have a friend look over your work to see if they catch something you didn't notice.
29. Upon moving out, don't forget to sweep your deck.
30. If you have painted your apartment walls, they will most likely need to be
PHOTO ILLUSTRATION/ ANNA FALTERMEIR
painted back to white before moving out. Check with your complex for the proper colors and remember, if you do a poor job, you'll be charged to have it re-done.
31. Replacing simple things like light bulbs and oven drip pans for a few dollars a piece before the apartment does their inspections will save you money. Several complexes will charge as much as $20 for these small tasks.
32. Don't forget to clean out your oven. Sometimes it's as simple as turning on the self-cleaner button. If the oven is neglected, residents can be charged as much as $50.
33. Clean your blinds. Windex
usually does the trick. Just spray and wipe down.
34. Take your time to ensure everything is clean. Don't rush or you may have an expensive bill on your hands.
35. Finally, clean behind appliances even if the area is not visible.

Spider-Man 3
SPIDER-MAN
Walking out of the exhilarating Spider-Man 2, everyone realized that the challenge for the third movie would be to keep things interesting after boyish superhero Peter Parker (Tobey Maguire, who was born for this role) won over his long-time love, Mary Jane Watson (Kirsten Dunst), and proved able time and again to defeat any villain thrown his way. Faced with this difficulty, writer/director Sam Raimi did what many others would do — he overcompensated.The result is Spider-Man 3, a film that takes its precious time creating conflicts and forgets to leave the time necessary to effectively resolve them all.
The primary conflict is with Venom, an alien parasite that latches onto the sleeping Parker, giving him increased powers at the expense of his esteemed character. It's tough to imagine the lovable 'Maguire acting like an asshole — which is precisely why it's so hilarious. Only after ridding himself of Venom, which in turn latches onto the character who
becomes the main villain, can Parker begin to win back the heart of the city and Mary Jane.
To push Spider-Man to his crime-fighting limits, Raimi includes the Sandman (Thomas Hayden Church), a villain whose back story is so discordant with the main plot that only the sticky webbing of Spider-Man himself could effectively hold it together with the rest of the film. Raimi is, of course, no superhero, so his attempt at cohesiveness, which includes amending the story of Uncle
Ben's death (a decision that will anger comic book purists), falls flat.
Aside from this misguided sub-plot, Spider-Man 3 works well enough. The special effects are up to snuff and the acting is solid, but 3 is still the weakest installment of this highly respectable series.

HIGH-HEELED TENNIS SHOES
CANDY BLAKE
After numerous tries, I realized that I can be sophisticated without wearing 3-inch heels
My mom bought me my first pair of heels when I was 13. They were cream-colored and had a thick square heel. A wide strap crossed over my foot just below my toes and one curved around my ankle. They were for my Bat Mitzvah, a Jewish ceremony that marked my graduation from Hebrew School and transition from a girl to a woman.
I remember standing on the stage thinking about how much my little toes hurt. I cocked my foot to the side to relieve the pressure that was building on the arch of my foot. I told myself that if being a woman meant that I would have to wear heels for every occasion, I wasn't ready to be one. After the parties ended that day, I pushed those heels to the back of the closet and never wore them again.
I don't understand the concept of heels; they smash your toes,
suffocate your feet and are hard to walk in. I would constantly debate my mom and friends about why it was necessary to wear heels. My friends said heels make you look taller and sophisticated. And my mom said tennis shoes make you look like a slob, especially when
POLITICAL SUPPORTERS
by Nicole Korman
I would try to wear them with black slacks and a collared shirt. For me, comfort takes precedence. I would rather be called a slob than have to cram my toes into a 3-inch pair of heels.
After my Bat Mitzvah, I grudgingly wore heels when I had to go to synagogue, but tennis shoes became my best friend. I had more than 15 pairs of tennis shoes that ranged in color and style. I had orange shoes and blue shoes with Velcro. For three years, my mom nagged at me to wear heals. "Just try them," she would say. "It's not hard and you might
like them." And every time my response was the same:"No."
Freshman year of high school, I finally let my guard down so my mom and I would stop bickering. My friend Courtney took me to the mall, promising my mom that she would make me look like a sophisticated woman by the time we left. My first purchase was a new pair of jeans with straight legs that were too long to wear without heels. I was being conned; Courtney knew that if I bought long jeans, I would have no choice but to buy heels, too. She led me to Bakers — a shoe store.
The heels were strategically placed on the shelves by style and color. The pointy toes were staring at me. My feet began to ache. The feeling of anxiety pierced me like the sharp, pointy-toed stilettos sitting there. I started to sweat. I took the plunge.
I went toe first into a pair of
black shoes that resembled penny loafers on stilts. The heel was a level one in my mind. I was a half-inch taller, and the base of the heel was square and flat enough for me to maintain my balance. Before I could run away, Courtney walked me to the counter to make my purchase.
When I got home, my mom was waiting at the door. The first thing she told me to do was put them on. As I put them on, I could see her smiling at me as she said, "See, heels look nice."
I wore the square heels twice before they joined the cream heels in the back of the closet. Because my toes had ached and I walked with a limp in those shoes, I started to wonder if other girls' toes ached as much as mine did in heels or if I just had abnormal feet.
My friends wouldn't give up, though. It seemed as if they were
With high school came formal dances. I did the math-four years of high school, two dances a year, eight times wearing heels. I was going to have to lower my guard because otherwise, my mom wouldn't buy me a dress.Each pair I bought got progressively taller and the width of the heel became skinner. By my junior year, I had moved into black stilettos with a 2-inch heel that were decorated with red rhinestones. As I arrived
all in cahoots with my mother.
Their argument was that boys would like me more if I wore heels.
But if a boy was going to like me, he was going to have to like me for me and the tennis shoes on my feet. We were a packaged deal.
Once I got to college, all heels were off; my friends and my mom could no longer nag me. In the past four years, I've worn heels for formals, presentations and special occasions. I try to get away with calling my green Converse high-tops my "heels" and wearing them out on Friday and Saturday nights. And I silently laugh to myself when I see other girls out in heels, thinking about how uncomfortable they must be and
at the dance, the heels I had been wearing for two hours had to be taken off. I danced freely around the gym floor in my bare feet. Foot fungus was more appealing to me than smashed toes and blisters.
how comfortable I am.
Over winter break, the green "heels" weren't going to pass. I interned in New York City at a magazine and knew that I was going to have to wear heals because most businesswomen do. But, after the first week, the blisters on the sides of my toes were so big that I carried my heels to work. As I looked around the office, I noticed that not everyone wore heels and they still looked sophisticated. I realized that I could be a mature adult while standing flat on the ground.
In one week I'm going to graduate. I'm going to be filling a new pair of shoes and, just like the
ILLUSTRATON/ MORGAN SWOFFORD first time I wore heels, it's going to be hard. Only this time, my toes aren't going to ache because I won't be wearing heels. Instead, I'll wear ballet flats or flat shoes with round toes. The pressure to wear heels as a businesswoman doesn't matter to me; I've learned through my experiences that being sophisticated comes from inside — not from the shoes on your feet. And every time I gave in to my mom and friends and wore heals, I didn't feel like me.
So when I enter the business world, I'll stand out, because unlike the other women who might tower over me, I will have my feet planted firmly on the ground.

Spa treatments are just one way to relax after finals. Images Salon and DaySpa, 51 1 W. 9th St., offers massages and spa services.
KANSAN FILE PHOTO
BY ASHLEE KIELER
After a grueling week of finals students can begin to unwind and enjoy their summer.
Students interested in a night out on the town may be tempted by bar specials.
Abe and Jake's Landing, 8 E. Sixth St., will be throwing a "School's out for summer" party Friday night. Ryan Lantz, general manager for the bar, said the bar will be open to those 21 and older with a $3 cover charge.
Saturday the bar will be open for those 18 and older with a live band, The Crumpleton's. Cover will be $7 for 18- to 21-year-olds and $5 for anyone older than 21.
Jordan Redding, Quinton's Bar and Deli bartender, said Quinton's, located at 615 Massachusetts St., will be offering 23-ounce margaritas and double vodka drinks for $3.50 Friday night.
Students not wanting to go out on the town can watch the Jayhawks' baseball game, weather permitting. Kansas plays Nebraska at 7 p.m. Friday.
Students looking to be pampered while relaxing can head to Images Salon and Day Spa, 511 W. Ninth St.
Juls Fowler, esthetician at Images, said fullbody massages run from $35 for 30 minutes to $80 for one-and-a half hours.
Fowler also recommended a lavender body wrap for relaxation. The wrap costs $50 and takes about an hour.
Mike Agan, health educator for Watkins Memorial Health Center, said students should do what they like to do because they probably haven't been able to during finals.
Agan said some students liked to go to movies or play video games to relax.
Students wanting to catch a movie have a
lot of options as summer block busters begin to open. "Spider-man 3" is now playing, and "Shrek the Third" opens Friday.

BY NATHAN GILL
Perhaps more than any other time of the academic year, finals week is a time for study. Many students dedicate themselves to this end-of-the-year activity with the most passion during the late-night hours and are looking for a place to cram, away from noisy roommates and other distractions.
Dawn Tato, program assistant in the Academic Achievement and Access Center, said there was no definition of a good study environment other than whatever worked for an individual student. She said finding such a place was often a process of trial and error.
"If the student is finding that the place they use isn't working, then they need to change it," Tato said.
during the last week of school. The two libraries will also offer students refreshments — coffee, hot chocolate and lemonade — during the latenight hours on their entrance floors, Smith said.
Watson has a quiet zone, a place of compulsory silence, on its fifth floor. Robert Szabo, operations coordinator at Anschutz, said the library would keep quiet zones on its first and second floors. Szabo said that the Anschutz zones, which are
"If the student is finding that the place they use isn't working, then they need to change it."
Some students consider the quiet sanctuary of a library an ideal study environment. The University's two main libraries accommodate those students during finals week with extended hours.
DAWN TATO
Program assistant in the Academic Achievement and Access Center
Rebecca Smith, public relations director for KU Libraries, said that Watson Library was scheduled to close at 3 a.m. during final week and that desk services would end at midnight. She said Anschutz Library, a 24-hour facility, would operate its desk services until midnight
located under Budig Hall but part of Anschutz, were only accessible through Anshcutz and did not accommodate wireless Internet access — which is available in all other Watson and Anschutz locations.
Though Anschutz usually restricts students to its third floor after midnight, the entire library will be open to students
during finals week, Szabo said.
Coffee shops offer an off-campus alternative to libraries. Yuri Zupancic, a receptionist at the Lawrence Chamber of Commerce, said most downtown Lawrence coffeehouses offered wireless Internet access, including the 24-hour coffee house, The Java Break, 17 E. 7th St.

Be sure to drink plenty of fluids because thirst is sometimes mistaken for hunger
Take exercise breaks because it will help focus
If you are a stress eater, take snacks,
but study at the library
Find ways to soothe stress, such as a bubble bath
It doesn't matter what time you eat, but rather how much you eat

THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN SPRING 2007
CHECKLIST: FINALS WEEK
Use this handy guide to organize and keep yourself sane during finals.
1. Schedule: Figure out everything you need to do over the week. This includes checking the times of your finals as well as the locations. Keep in mind how much time you will need to study for each final.
Notes.
2. Prioritize: Look at your finals schedule and decide what to study each day of the week.
Notes.
3. Gather: Get all your study materials together and make sure you have everything you need for each final. If your finals require blue books make sure to get them before the final.
Notes.
4. Study: Find a place to study that caters to your study needs. If you need caffeine, find a fun coffee shop that's open all night, or if you need solitude and silence, visit the library.
5. Sleep: Remember that sleep is important to your exam success rate. Try to schedule some time to get some shut eye.
Notes.
6. Take the test: Give yourself plenty of time to get to the exam and remember to bring your test-taking materials. Keep yourself calm, and remember it will all be over in an hour or so.
Notes.
7. Celebrate:
Whether it's your first or last finals week, be happy that it's all over. Take time to have fun with your friends and toast the end of the semester.
Notes.
