COMMENTARY
Two teams, one result: bittersweet defeat
Heartbreak, upsets all a part of a fan's March Madness experience
ARLINGTON, Texas — As a journalist, it's a cardinal sin to write with any bias toward a team. As a journalist, it's also a cardinal sin to lie.
As a student of the University of Kansas, I must break that first rule.
I won't lie to you. Sitting in front of my computer in Cowboys Stadium watching the jayhaws collapse hurt me. It hurt because it didn't seem like the right way for this team to lose. It hurt because it just wasn't supposed to be this way.
It hurt because Kansas was the team to always come back. To always be trailing at half-time, and then to take the other team by storm.
By Mike Vernon
mvernon@kansan.com
And on top of that, I was fortunate enough to write about Michigan's miracle comeback and Trey Burke's heroic 3-pointer that would put Tony Romo to shame. As a journalist, this was a great story to write. As a Jayhawk, it stung.
So I scrambled to write my story, threw my laptop in my backpack, and hustled into the bowels of the titanic stadium. From there, I waited outside the Michigan locker room.
These Michigan players aren't to be bated. They just wear different colored clothes to play the game we all love. These are kids aged 18-22 that have worked their whole lives to get to this moment, just like Kansas' kids.
Behind the closed doors I
They aren't the enemy. Don't hate the players, and don't hate the game, either.
Yes, this was a great regular season for Kansas that didn't get justice in the NCAA Tournament. It happens.
I had never been on the other side, in the visitors locker room
After all, this is part of March. This is why we love March. You sometimes end up on the wrong side of it.
after the big come-from-behind win.
Trey Burke was still shaking almost 20 minutes after he had made the shot that crushed every Jayhawk's hopes and dreams for another trip to the Elite Eight.
I know what you're feeling in the pit of your stomach right now. I know what it's like to stare blankly at your friends wondering how it can ever get better. Wondering how you'll ever recover.
But you'll respond the same way you do every year. You'll chat in the summer about the new recruits, the new team, the new starting lineup. Come October you'll go to Late Night and overanalyze every meaningless minute. Then November hits and the fun returns.
This is the life of a fan. You just have to take the good and the bad that comes with it.
You'll smile again, and it will be because of Kansas basketball. You'll make Allen Fieldhouse shake and you'll count down the days in a week until game day.
Otherwise, this wouldn't be any fun, would it?

Jayhawks' drive gets them past expectation and among the best
NORFOLK, Va. – Skylar Diggins beat Kansas.
She scored 27 of the 30 points that cost Kansas the game,
and she's responsible for at least 18 more of Notre Dame's points from her nine assists.
Without Diggins, I think Notre Dame and Kansas would have been evenly matched, and Kansas might even be better than a Notre Dame without Diggins.
But the same could be said for a Kansas without Angel Goodrich. In the same way that Diggins directs the Fighting Irish, Goodrich directs the jayhawks. Before Kansas' practice on Saturday, Monica Engelman said "Angel makes me look good."
Diggins did more than Goodrich in Sunday's game, though. Goodrich, Kansas' all-time assist leader — and that's for the men and women — scored seven points to accompany her 13 assists. Where Goodrich slacked on the scoring, Diggins didn't, and she still had almost as many assists as Goodrich.
By Tara Bryant
tbryant@kansan.com
Goodrich didn't have the whole package, and Diggins did, and that decided the game.
What got the layhawks so far in this tournament was their drive. It was the same drive that got them to the Sweet Sixteen last season. With Carolyn Davis out last year, the layhawks had to step up their game and fill Davis' gap in the
starting lineup. The Jayhaws lost another start this year, and the team played the rest of this season for Natalie Knight.
Unfortunately for Kansas, Notre Dame and its seniors — Diggins and Kalla Turner — also came to the tournament with a lot of drive.
Notre Dame has played in the past two national championship games, but has yet to walk away with a trophy. This is Diggins' last tournament and she's determined to top off her record-breaking career at Notre Dame with a championship.
The Jayhawks had the numbers and Diggins "sense of urgency" — the buzzword of this tournament
— stacked against them when they stepped on the court at the Ted Constant Convocation Center on Sunday.
Kansas has been the underdog throughout the tournament because the team wasn't supposed to win.
The Jayhawks weren't supposed to beat the Colorado
So, while I say that a Notre Dame team without Diggins may have been an even matchup for Kansas, the matchup shouldn't really be questioned. Notre Dame should have beaten Colorado or South Carolina on Sunday because Kansas was never ready for a team of Notre Dame's caliber.
Buffaloes at home, but they did. They weren't supposed to beat the higher-ranked South Carolina Gamecocks, and yet they did. And they didn't beat the Fighting Irish on Sunday. They lost just like they were supposed to.
Unlike the controversial No.1-seeded Gonzaga Bulldogs in the men's tournament, no one has doubted Notre Dame's No.1 seed.
The Fighting Irish are 34-1, their one loss being to the Baylor Bears, the defending national champions and the No.1 overall seed in the women's tournament for the second year in a row.
Kansas never had a chance against Notre Dame. Kansas basketball fans, and maybe even the Kansas players and coaches, are jaded because of Kansas basketball's history of success. We're spoiled and don't always know better when we're outmatched.
Skylar Diggins and the Notre Dame Fighting Irish beat the Kansas Jayhawks fair and square, just like they were supposed to do.

EMILY DONOVAN edonovan@kansan.com
While other children daydreamed of future occupations as astronauts or firemen, Tom Richmond, a senior concentrating in printmaking from Kansas City, Kan., already knew his.
Project after project have led him to the School of Fine Arts and to mural projects in Lawrence and in The Studio attached to Hashinger Residence Hall, Visual arts always seemed like a linear path.
He just may not have known he would one day be launching a career when he sat next to Simon Jackson in a middle school art class.
"We were always into art," Jackson said. "Now that we're both old enough and adult enough and mature enough in our drawing, it translates into selling and having a business mind."
Jackson, a hairdresser at Aisley&Stripe Salon in Overland Park, and Richmond have collaborated and drawn together since their early teens. Now, the pair is taking their designs to a wearable level by creating their own T-shirt business, Omen and Arrow.
"It's really cool to see two different styles of line and two different brains come together on the same
composition;" Richmond said.
At a printmaking convention in Milwaukee last month, one of Richmond's Instagram followers approached him to compliment Omen and Arrow. Because they haven't launched an official online presence yet and are still operating through their personal accounts, @trichmond713 and @captainsimon, Richmond was pleasantly surprised to already be receiving feedback and positive buzz from strangers.
"We don't really know exactly how this is going to play out," Richmond said. "For right now, we're just having fun with it and enjoying creating together and seeing our shirts around."
What Richmond loves about stencling with spray paint — the clean layers and the illustrative style — translates perfectly into printmaking. Their collaborative style, Jackson said, appeals to a young adult target audience.
"It's a little darker," Jackson said. "We get a lot of inspiration from tattoos and graffiti, so it's really illustrative but definitely more alternative."
For the past month, Richmond and Jackson have been bouncing ideas back and forth, reworking and re-inking sketches until they're ready to be printed. Making sure their images are exactly the style
they want, Richmond and Jackson screen print all of the hand-drawn designs by exposing photographic sensitive material to their drawings over mylar.
"People really take for granted how long the printmaking process by hand actually takes," Richmond said.
Because each T-shirt requires extensive time to print, Richmond and Jackson are kept busy by filling orders for friends. With a goal to collect 10 polished designs before they launch their website and eight designs finished, the two are now also looking for ways to mass produce shirts.
"Ideally, we want to make tons of money and sell out, but that's not what it's all about for us." Richmond said. "It could go anywhere, and Simon and I would have a great time doing it. We enjoy the excuse to hang out and do some artwork together, and that's all it needs to be. From here, it just goes up. In turn, it's two best friends making artwork for other people to enjoy."
Richmond and Jackson will continue to sell shirts in-person until their online boutique is up and running. They expect to price each shirt around $25.

FINAL FOUR
Wichita State Shockers fans welcome team at Koch Arena
ASSOCIATED PRESS
WICHITA, Kan. — Chanting Wichita State fans wearing shirts emblazoned with messages such as "Play Angry" welcomed home the Final Four-bound Shockers early Sunday.
The Wichita Eagle reported that coach Gregg Marshall hoisted an NCAA trophy above his head as he stepped off the team bus around 4 a.m. Hours earlier, his ninth-seeded team upset second-seeded Ohio State 70-66 after he issued a halftime reminder to "plav arngv"
Wichita State now heads to its first Final Four since 1965.
About 75 fans shouted "Good job, coach!" and "Final Four! Final Four!" during the early morning homecoming celebration at Charles Koch Arena. Some in the crowd held signs that read "Keep calm and Shock on" or "Final 4-Bound."
Marshall chanted along when someone sang the first few words to "War," a fight song introduced by the pep band and a quick hit among fans.
"You don't want to go to war with the Shockers," the song proclaims. "Don't start no stuff, won't be no stuff."
Marshall later likened the fans to family.
"The love that this program is shown by these folks, it's constant," he said. "You can always count on it."
"Everyone roots for the underdog," 25-year-old Pusateri, of Wichita, said. "It's cool to see Wichita State make a mark."
Adam Pusateri said the "small town" spirit of the gathering spurred his trip to campus.
Senior forward Carl Hall said the team is expected to leave mid-week to prepare for its Final Four matchup Saturday in Atlanta.
"It it just goes to show how the fans all are — how supportive they are," Hall said of the reception.

reconsiders fees
Collection of this year's Requirement Campus Fees has been better than expected, which has allowed the senate to pay off a finance bond early, said Dean Jane, chair of the Finance Committee.
This news comes in right at next year's student fees are under consideration by Student Senate's finance committee, as disclosed in the minutes of last Wednesday's full Senate meeting.
Pointing to last year's campus fee increasing by $15, Student Body President Hailan Bottom encouraged the finance committee to lower campus fees in light of the surplus.
"We are working for students." Bottom said. "Just because $3.50 is available doesn't mean we should reallocate this."
me fee, which costs each student $44 per semester, pays for student health services, membership to the recreation center and other on campus services, according to the University on office KU Financial Aid and Scholarship.
Dean said the finance committee would further consider fee review as a result of the early bond pay off before making a recommendation to full Senate.
"The fee process is actually ongoing." Dean said. "Nothing will be final until April 17."

University offers resources for learning finances
PAGE 3
KATIE MCBRIDE kmcbride@kansan.com
April is Financial Literacy Month, dedicated to increasing awareness and knowledge about financial topics to help people become financially secure. The student organization SAFE, Student Advocates for Financial Education, is promoting Financial Literacy Month by hosting lectures and events for students.
The University offers many resources to help students with their
finances, including Student Money Management Services. The office, located on the third floor of the Kansas Union, is available to students seeking advice about financially-related topics. It is open for walk-ins if students have general questions, or students can make appointments for more in-depth advice.
Noah Quinn, a student who works in the Student Money Management Services office, said students can use the organization to figure out how to save money and
where they spend it.
"Money is something that everyone has to deal with no matter who they are or where they live," Quinn said. "No matter how much money you end up making, understanding how money works can make the difference between being in debt and living paycheck to paycheck or living comfortably and being financially secure."
Rachel Prather, a sophomore from Palo Cedro, Calif., sought help from the office to learn how to make
a budget and keep track of her finances. One benefit she gained from going to the office was learning how to identify her monthly expenses.
Prather said although the information she learned about budgeting was simple, it was helpful to her because it was something she had never done before.
"It's very important to keep track of what you're spending," Prather said. "I didn't realize how much I was spending, and as soon as I started budgeting, I would see it written and saw how ridiculous some of my spending was. I think seeing the numbers really shocks some people."
"Now that I've gone to the Student Money Management office, I'm probably one of the most financially-literate people that I know," Prather said. "I take really good care of my money, and I definitely wasn't that way before."

EDUCATION
Robot purchased by Hutchinson school to spark interest in engineering
ASSOCIATED PRESS
HUTCHINSON — The newest teacher at the Hutchinson school district's Career and Technical Education Academy can demonstrate tai chi moves and also display a little bathroom humor.
It's Nao, the robot.
In 2012, the district received a grant worth $21,785 from Cargill Corporation for the robot acquisition.
It arrived around the first of March, and instructor Steve Stacey and four advanced programming students are getting acquainted with the walking, talking Japanese-manufactured robot that came with the name Nao.
"He can do anything we program him to do," Stacey said.
Last week when The News visited Stacey's classroom, Nao not only was the topic of conversation, he also joined in the conversation — with the help of quick-witted
students positioned at computers.
"Would you like to see me dance?" Nao asked.
"No." said Stacev.
"Fine, then," Nao said.
When Nao asked Stacey if he liked chocolate, Stacey answered, "No."
Nao came back with: "Do you even have taste buds?" That line, written by sophomore Gage Brown, caused Stacey to crack up with laughter.
"Girls do not like robots that much, I guess," observed Nao, uttering words Thomas Clark, a junior, had typed on the computer.
When The News asked Stacey about the absence of girls in the class, Stacey began explaining how it "has always 'been a challenge' to get girls in engineering-related classes.
Brown's technical skills are behind Nao's "I need a poop" routine, incorporating moves and

language.
"We can change pitch and tone on it." Stacey said of Nao's voice, which now sounds youthful. At some point, Nao will be renamed, probably something befitting a high school with a Salthawk mascot.
Interaction with a robot will be an asset on a resume, Stacey said.
It also gives students a taste of an engineering field before they head to college or pick a career path, he said.
Enrollment for the program next year has risen, according to Career and Technical Education Academy staff.

Legislators aim to push through legislation, end session early
ASSOCIATED PRESS
TOPEKA — Kansas legislators return Monday from a long weekend determined to push through tax legislation, new restrictions on abortion, gun-rights legislation, the bulk of the next state budget and every other bill of any significance in just five days.
ASSOCIATED PRESS
A. J. MUNCHER AND R. A. BRAHMER
Republican leaders have pledged that lawmakers will finish almost all of the year's work by Friday, breaking with their standard practice over the past quarter-century, to shorten their annual session. But to make good on the pledge, some tricky and contentious issues will have to be resolved quickly.
The biggest piece of the puzzle is how to resolve differences on taxes and whether a 2010 sales tax increase is allowed to expire in July as scheduled or remains in place to shore up the state's $14 billion budget for 2014.
The tax plan has to come first, Bruce said, so legislators know if the budget will balance.
work they have to complete when legislators return May 8.
"We either work now or we work later to reach an agreement on taxes and the budget. Those are the two issues that control the session," said Senate Majority Leader Terry Bruce.
The Hutchinson Republican said the Senate was sticking to its Friday deadline for finishing business and starting a monthlong break. Senate GOP leaders want budget and tax issues settled, limiting how much
Brownback wants to keep the state sales tax rate at 6.3 percent instead of letting it fall to 5.7 percent as scheduled in July. The Senate sides with the governor and his proposal to raise additional revenue through other adjustments. The House tax plan allows the sales tax rate to drop, but also makes other adjustments to raise additional revenue. Republicans and Brownback are looking for the revenue to cushion the impact of massive income tax cuts enacted last year.
Kansas Senate Minority Leader Anthony Hensley, a Topeka Democrat, left, discusses budget and tax issues during a news conference, as House Minority Leader Paul Davis, a Lawrence Democrat, watches Friday at the statehouse in Topeka. Legislators will work on pushing through tax legislation this week.
putting matters to rest in May.
"There's just the budget reality," Brownback said last week. "I think it's coming across to people that you've got to get your resource package somewhere. The budget doesn't work without the tax piece of it."
"It's better to know what your income is, and I don't know that we know what that is yet," said Vickrey, a Louisburg Republican.
House Majority Leader Jene Vickrey compared the budget and tax negotiations to families looking at their own finances.
Vickrey concedes that legislators must work quickly. Still, House GOP leaders want a clearer picture of state revenues in April before
Senate President Susan Wagle, a Wichita Republican, said she and House leaders agreed to end the first portion of the regular session Friday. The process was complicated procedurally last week when the House adjourned before the Senate passed a slew of measures that will have to be negotiated. The House will have to take action on Monday to allow committees to start working out differences.
"We may be a little delayed, and that means we are going to have a very busy week." Waile said.
"I think they are overly optimistic this is all going to be done, especially the tax bill," said the Topeka Democrat. "They may be able to pass a budget in five days, but I just don't see where the House is going to come around and support the governor in his tax increase."
Senate Minority Leader Anthony Hensley has his doubts.
Brownback has signed just one bill this session, a measure changing the process for filling vacancies on the Court of Appeals. The change allows the governor to make independent selections to the bench, which would then be subject to Senate confirmation.
Republicans want to go further and apply it to the state Supreme Court. But unlike the Court of Appeals, which is set by statute,
changing the Supreme Court requires voter approval to amend the Kansas Constitution. Senators approved a resolution to place the changes on the August 2014 primary ballot, but the measure has been stalled in the House.
Several education bills also remain in play, many of which are aimed at breaking the strength of the Kansas National Education Association by rewriting rules for contract negotiations and collective bargaining rights.
One measure sent back to the House last week is a modified version of Brownback's elementary school reading initiative. Senators amended the bill to require school districts, with the consultation of parents, to retain students at the first grade who aren't proficient in reading. The governor set the target at third grade, saying it was cruel to pass students along who weren't prepared.
TEXAS
County DA and wife killed, local mayor says not a random act
KAUFMAN, Texas — Kaufman County District Attorney Mike McLelland took no chances after one of his assistant prosecutors was gunned down two months ago. McLelland said he carried a gun everywhere he went and was extra careful when answering the door at his home.
"I'm ahead of everybody else because, basically, I'm a soldier," the 23-year Army veteran said in an interview less than two weeks ago.
ASSOCIATED PRESS
On Saturday, he and his wife were found shot to death in their rural home just outside the town of Forney, about 20 miles from Dallas.
While investigators gave no motive for the killings, Forney Mayor Darren Rozzell said, "It appears this was not a random act."
"Everybody's a little on edge and a little shocked," he said.
The slayings came less than two
weeks after Colorado's prison chief was shot to death at his front door, apparently by an ex-convict, and a couple of months after Kaufman County Assistant District Attorney Mark Hasse was killed in a parking lot a block from his courthouse office. No arrests have been made in Hasse's lan. 31 slaying.
Sheriff David Byrnes would not give details Sunday of how the killings unfolded and said there was nothing to indicate for certain whether the DAs's slaying was connected to Hasse's.
McLelland, 63; is the 13th prosecutor killed in the U.S. since the National Association of District Attorneys began keeping count in the 1960s.
El Paso County, Colo., sheriff's spokesman Sgt. Joe Roybal said investigators had found no evidence so far connecting the Texas killings to the Colorado case, but added: "We're examining all possibilities."

Can we all just agree that we have a good looking band?
Is it basketball season yet? (Never too early)
I don't know what kind of apples you eat, but apple-flavored things taste nothing like apples. Apple juice doesn't even taste like apples.
That sad moment when you think that you have a funny FFA, but then realize it won't even be published until Monday.
Uh, I don't know about you, bro, but
I already have two thumbs. And they're
great.
Hahahahahaha Heat!
I really like muffin flavored muffins!
Can you drink milk from a bowl at a gas station?
My horoscope just told me to chop food and carry water, so not happening.
BUT CAPS LOCK IS CRUISE CONTROL FOR COOL.
I don't always decide to chug the remainder of the milk jug but when I do, I greatly underestimate how much is actually left.
Professor, it would be grape if you don't give us a raisin to lettuce go to class today. Hotdog I'm hungry!
is it weird when I read the word "self"
I think of Bill Self?
I was under the impression that most people do have two thumbs.
Improperer is most improper
You will be happy to know that I didn't waste the milk, I simply drank it spoonful by glorious spoonful.
The longer I'm in college the more I consider just marrying for money.
There are some glorious mustaches on campus lately! Bravo!
KU meet my pasty legs. Pasty legs.
KU.
To all guys: holding a door is a little thing that can make a girl's day. Give it a try.
I wonder if Missouri calls it "March Sadness."
Please Bill Self wear a bow tie.
Sincerely, KU basketball fans. #safresh-soclean
Can we get a little recognition for our bros at Wichita State? Just because they're out west doesn't make them any less Kansan!
I still love y'all, Rock Chalk Jayhawk!
Just found a hair in my food at Mrs. E's. After last night's game, I'm not sure how much more I can take.
Im going to bed, wake me up next October.

SOCIETY
Wah.
When did calling out injustice become a problem?
As an outspoken feminist writer whose articles get a fair amount of traffic, I've gotten used to my articles getting a bunch of online trolls commenting. There is always the person who is going to vehemently disagree with me, whether the topic is expanding sex education or marriage equality. I've got pretty used to not paying them much heed, as there will always be trolls on the internet hoping to validate their views by wreaking havoc in the comments section. Yet, my experience with my most recent article, "Men Need To Confront Sexual Violence" honestly floored me. No matter your politics, I thought, surely ending sexual violence is one of those things most people can reasonably agree needs to be done, right?
Apparently, I was very wrong. Within the first few hours of my article being out, it was accruing comment after comment attacking feminists, attacking
women, attacking me for trying to create a discussion where we could talk about sexual violence.
Literally in the hundreds now, of these types of comments; apparently I was being horribly discriminatory toward men because "What about all the women who make false accusations of rape? Why don't you talk about that??"
When did the act of "accusing" or calling out injustice become considered more detrimental to an individual than the actual act of injustice itself?
These commentators were furious at the idea that I wanted to confront the source of the problem (which in this particular instance of discussing sexual violence against women, is unfortunately overwhelmingly men who have been raised in a culture that validates sexual assault). I didn't take it personally, but it did make me think.
This can be clearly seen in regards to sexual violence in

terms of the internet reaction to my sexual violence article and to the recent case of Steubenville, where the two men who raped an unconscious girl at a party were repeatedly referred to sympathetically by the media. You can Google CNN or Fox News's coverage of the case from Monday, to see this exemplified, as the rapists practically become saints in their versions. But we can also see it in the way we treat other issues of oppression.
We're afraid to call someone out as racist because that is an "awful" name to call a person—but isn't the racist act that person is doing more awful? We want to
respect the freedom of religion individuals have, even when their religions demonize LGBT persons—but aren't homophobic acts, particularly when they reach outside the bounds of religion and into the secular realm, worse than calling out someone or some group out as homophobic? We don't want to make people feel uncomfortable by telling them that using the word "retarded" is offensive—but aren't people with disabilities going to be even more uncomfortable having to suffer hearing such derogatory language?
homophobic, as a personal attack against our individual identity rather than recognizing it for what it is—calling out the way the "accused" is harming another individual or group of individuals.
Our fear of offense and slandering has inadvertently caused us to often start out on the offense—"how could you dare think that about me!" — rather than confront the fact that we may have said or done something ignorant, hurtful or harmful. We've built up a culture where we sympathize with the accused rather than the victim. We've equated being called, say
This type of reaction only serves to keep systems of oppression in place. If we're trained to fear calling out injustice and to react when we, or our behaviors, or our privileges, are criticized with defensiveness rather than actually listening to why we are being criticized, how can we learn? How can we change the dominant culture?
The answer is we can't. Not unless we start listening to victims of injustice, instead of perpetrators of injustice.

STUDY ABROAD
You are going to meet crazy people in foreign countries
So you've got your study abroad applications all turned in, huh? That's great! Now all you'll need to do is buy your plane tickets, pack your suitcases, exchange your greenbacks for brightly-colored Monopoly money at the local bank, and sit back and wait for your boring classes here in Larrytown to wrap up.
By Sylas May
smay@kansan.com
Oh, but it might also be a wise idea to talk to some crazy people around town before you go. I speak from experience when I say that it will be beneficial to learn how to deal with weird people here before you try to do it abroad. When you're walking the streets of a foreign town, you never know what kind of lunatics might decide to bug you.
I remember being lost on my bike in a small town in Germany last summer and being yelled at by a tall, lanky man who was standing by the roadside dragging a rake across a patch of gravel. After noticing that I was lost and American, he tried to hold a very weird and disjointed conversation with me in thickly accented English. I'll describe it here, so that you can better spot looiness like this guy when you're out traveling.
After we had established that I was a foreign student, the man asked me. "How do you get the money to stay over here?" I had to think about this one for a bit; he would probably understand about my scholarship money, but how could I get across in simple English that I was using financial aid from my grandpa's Masonic Lodge to supplement it? I panicked a bit and spat out, "From my university and my grandfather."
"Ah, so your grandfather is still alive!" chuckled the man. I didn't know how to respond to this at all, but I didn't have to because my interviewer was
more than happy to fill in the dead air. "You are very lucky to still have a wealthy grandfather who will provide for you."
"Yes, Very lucky," I mumbled.
"You will have a large inheritance, also," the man said with a grin. "Do you look forward to that?"
With as much enthusiasm as you can muster when forced to show excitement about the prospect of your kind old grandpa kicking the bucket, I squeezed out a "Yeah," I guess."
"What kind of work does your grandfather do?" The man leaned forward a bit in anticipation.
"He worked for the IRS"
Silence. A blank stare.
Realizing my error, I rephrased:
"He was a tax collector."
"Oh," replied the man, looking a bit disappointed. He asked me, after a few seconds, "So he doesn't have many friends out in public, then?"
I was a Boy Scout once, but only for a brief time. Still, I figured those few years of tying knots and pitching tents had to count for something, so I said, "Yeah, I was."
Shortly afterward, the man asked me, apropos of nothing, "Are you a Boy Scout?"
"I knew it when I first saw you," the man said proudly, "I knew, 'here is a Boy Scout.'" This struck me as odd, as I was wearing a polo shirt, nice shorts, and a scarf at the time — very unscoutlike attire. The man continued: "At it like being in the
army?"
"I wouldn't know; I've never been in the army before."
"I think it would be like the army."
After I put my hands in my pockets to warm them up, the man glanced down and asked, "Do you have a phone in your pocket?" I had foolishly left my phone at home, so I answered, "No."
"Good," the man replied firmly. Something about the way he said it unnerved me a bit and made me wish quite badly that I had brought my phone. As he continued to rake, and the handle swung toward me, I jumped a bit; he seemed to pav it no mind.
"I have one last thing to ask you," the man said. "You know the moon landing?"
"Yes."
"Do you think it was real, we really landed on the moon, or do you think it was a lie?" I could barely keep myself from laughing at this point.
"Well, I like to think we landed on the moon," I answered, trying hard not to take a side.
"I do, too, but I think they were making it up. If you look at the film, you see two things. One, there are two different shadows. And, two, the flag doesn't move in the wind. Some people say, 'it can't be real because the flag doesn't move.' Other people say that there is no wind on the moon. And then some people say, 'it was the sun-wind.'
All I could do was shake my head at this lunacy. Only I shook it up and down instead of side to side because I didn't want the authorities to come across my rake-bludgeoned body under a shallow layer of gravel later in the evening.

TECHNOLOGY
Inventions not as cool was we thought
What happens when you go on spring break to a city where
break to a city where it's 15 degrees outside? Not go to the beach, that's what. Instead, you stay where you can feel your limbs and think about stuff. Here are some things that came to my mind:
I don't think Google Glass will turn out as cool as we thought. The glasses that project the internet and more straight onto your eye will be used for the same things as your smart phone. While some people may really have innovative uses for it — Heads Up Displays for soldiers or even smaller POV cameras for athletes — most people would probably just end up watching SportsCenter Top 10 in their 8 a.m. class like me. I can already do this on my phone, so why switch to Google Glass and have to announce my intentions to the professor with an "Okay Glass . . ." to watch on a smaller screen?
It took the deep-space craft Voyager more than 30 years to reach the edges of Sol's dominion, and it doesn't look like faster-than-light travel will be coming soon. Which means we can say goodbye to any hopes of seeing a Star Trek or Mass Effect-like galaxy full of aliens and adventure. This will greatly limit our ability to explore and colonize even our own tiny little solar system. On another side (I'm not sure if it's the bright side or a dimmer one), we haven't truly solved the problem of deep space radiation killing off astronauts before they've reached their target, so no astronauts will die from that. And also, if we can't figure out faster-than-light travel, neither can any aliens. So be happy, human race, we won't be eaten or enslaved any time soon!

There will never be a Jurassic Park. The lifespan of DNA does not extend back hundreds of millions of years, even in little mosquitoes stuck in amber. At the very most, we might be able to clone some wooly mammoths
found in Russia. But for now, scientists are working on cloning most of the species humanity managed to extinct during the last couple of hundred years.
The rate at which bacteria are becoming resistant to antibiotic drugs is getting very dangerous. Most of the miracles of modern medicine are due to some form of antibiotic drug fighting off an infection — whether it's bacteria from an abdominal surgery, inhaling some of the wrong fungus or even a little paper cut that got in the dirt. If bacteria become resistant to our drugs, we can welcome ourselves back to the dark ages. Without antibiotics, that little infection from your even smaller paper cuts may spread through your body and kill you. Bacteria evolve resistance from being exposed to the drugs that are supposed to kill them. Sometimes, a tiny group of bacteria survive just because, and pass down the resistance. Lots of times, people might stop taking their antibiotics a few days early, letting the bacteria get used to the drug. Either way, it's slowly happening. Nobody really knows how much longer we have until infections start killing us in troves again, but it's coming.
Writer's note: Sorry for the depressing updates. When science comes up with something happy like money trees or never ending beer bottles, I'll let you know.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)
Today is a 9
Use your persuasive skills. Emotions are all over the map. There's more work coming; pace it carefully, as there's danger of breakage. It's getting lovely.
Don't gamble, discuss money or play the fool. Provide excellent service, and make a good impression. Optimism enters the workplace, though costs may be higher than expected. Areas that seem stuck move later.
Leo (July 23-Aug.22)
Today is a 9
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
Today is an 8

Don't make expensive promises or believe everything. There's another test: Challenge authority to get the truth. Keep pursuing a dream. It's easy to work harmoniously with a partner. Sell an idea.

According to Elle UK Magazine, Mercedes-Benz teamed up with the world's largest country last year. The event, formerly known as Russian Fashion Week, began in 2000 and has grown tremendously since. The showcase began with 20 designers in its early days. Thirteen years later, the event is featuring 150 designers. The talents are typically found in Russian universities, though many designers came from surrounding countries such as Ukraine and Belarus.
Fashion Week expands to Russia

The trends featured so far for the Autumn and Winter 2013 have certainly varied from those seen in New York and London fashion weeks. Animals were a definite theme in the Russian shows, as Tatya Parfionova's collection showcased maxi dresses with Labrador prints. Bird-inspired head garments also garnered attention last weekend in Russia.
creilly@kansan.com
Though the fashion capitals of the world may have ended their fashion shows earlier this month, Moscow is currently holding its Mercedes-Benz fashion event this week.
While the differences between Moscow and the other fashion showcases was evident, some fashion trend similarities have been seen on the Russian runways. Cape jackets, black and white pairings and midi dress
lengths were seen in calmer shows by designers Ester Abner and Olga Vilshenko.
Many of the shows lacked focus, but whatever the inspiration was
for the Eastern European designers, it seemed to be anything but shy.

Power from hitters, bullpen secures a win

KELSEY WEAVER/KANSAN
Sophomore infielder Justin Protocaprio spins for first base during the game against Jackson State University at home on March 13. Kansas went 1-2 in the series against Oklahoma this weekend. Protocaprio has a 304 batting average this season.

After losing the first two games of the series to Oklahoma, Kansas fired back in Saturday afternoon's series finale.
Kansas coach Ritch Price was disappointed to see his players weren't competitive early on in the series. Kansas scored seven runs in the first inning on Saturday, making Price prouder of his players than before in Norman.
The jayhawks' offense was good enough that it created issues for the Sooners on the mound. Oklahoma coach Sumy Gollowway went to the bulpen twice in the first inning, as it took three different pitchers for the Sooners to end the jayhawks' early hot rally.
"Our hitters did a really nice job of working counts, getting the ball elevated and being on time," Price said. "They found a way to be impressive today. It was a good offensive performance."
Although Kansas held a 7-1 lead after one inning, it remained silent for the next five innings. During that stretch, Oklahoma responded with a seven-run inning of its own and took an 8-7 lead in the fifth inning, but Kansas remained competitive, which is what Price asked from his team.
In the seventh inning, senior first baseman Alex DeLeon pulled through to help the Jayhawks work on retaking the lead.
DeLeon, who went two-for-five with three runs batted in on Saturday, singled to right field with two strikes in the seventh inning. The hit sent senior shortstop Kevin Kuntz home to tie and senior third baseman Jordan Dreiling to second base.
"I went through a pretty good slider." DeLeon said. "He had two strikes on me, so I tried to put it into play. We got a good pitch on it, and I found the hole."
Dreiling eventually reached home plate after freshman designated hitter Jacob Boylan flied out to center field. Junior catcher Ka'iaina Eldredge scored one more run for the Jayhawks off a double from Kuntz to create a two-run lead.
"I was proud that there was no quit in our ballclub after they took the lead in the fifth inning." Price said. "We continued to fight and grind. Guys clutched up, and we put the two runs up in the seventh and the run in the eighth, which was big."
The Jayhawk bullpen pulled through once again after sophomore Wes Benjamin threw for nearly five complete innings. Sophomore Robert Kahana and junior Jordan Piché allowed four hits, and they shutout the Sooners to help conclude the series in Norman.
Kahana picked up his third win of the year as Piché earned a save for the third time in 2013.
"Our bullpen was outstanding today." Price said. "Kahana was fabulous out of the bullpen, Piché
Despite losing two of three games in the series this past weekend, the Jayhawks feel good after handing Oklahoma its first conference loss of the year.
was fabulous out of the bullpen and that is the strength of our team, the back-end of our bullpen."
"We were able to get it done today with a win, which is really good now," DeLeon said. "We're 3-3 after playing TCU and Oklahoma, so it looks like we are in pretty good shape right now."
Kansas is currently 15-10 on the year and faces Creighton on Tuesday and Saint Mary on Wednesday for a one-game series during the week at home. The Jayhawks will also stay at home during the weekend and host Oklahoma State in their first conference series at Hoglund Ballpark.
Kansas hopes to improve its .500 conference record and be more competitive in the Big 12 throughout the rest of the season.

The Kansas softball team lost to Texas 5-4 in the second game of Friday's doubleheader as the Longhorns went 3-0 against the Jawhaws this weekend.
Sophomore Alicia Pille's ninth complete game of the season
wasn't enough in the teams' first game Thursday with a 5-0 victory by Texas. The score was 2-0 in favor of Texas for the majority of the game until the Longhorns added three runs in the final two innings to seal

The Longhorns

Despite the 16-4 loss earlier in
the day, Kansas responded with a solid effort in the second game of Friday's doubleheader. Kansas freshman Alex Hugo hit her ninth homerun of the year, the second most by a jayhawk freshman, but the jayhawks were unable to turn the momentum in their favor. Pille was solid again on the hill for Kansas with four strikeouts over four innings. Luna had nine strikeouts over seven innings and improved her record to 17-1 on the season for Texas.
"It was a good game, we just came up a little bit short," Smith said in a KU Athletics press release. "Our team saw that they competed with Texas today, and they needed to see that. Aside from one horrible inning today, we competed with them both games."
Kansas travels to Lubbock, Texas on Friday to take on the Texas Tech Raiders in a three-game series on Friday, Saturday and Sunday.

THE MORNING BREW 2008 Kansas team not on list of greats
The madness of March is upon us, but you may or may not have heard that the tournament we all love to stress about is celebrating a milestone this year. This season's installation of the NCAA Men's Basketball Tournament marks 75 years of upsets, buzzer beaters and players crying on the sidelines after a heartbreak loss.
By Jonas Nordman
jnordman@kansan.com
With the anniversary, many news publications are putting out lists of the 75 best players and teams that have danced through the nation's collective hearts. As I read through these lists, I kept having the same issue over and over: Why aren't the 2008 national champion Kansas Jayhawks considered one of the greatest teams ever?
For example, ESPN.com has the 2008 Jayhawks ranked as the No. 22-best championship team. The teams ranked ahead of them include the 2009 North Carolina squad featuring many of the same players that Kansas smacked around in the previous year's Final Four. What about the last great modern dynasty, the 2006-2007 Florida Gators?
They were a great team for sure, but remember that they lost in a preseason invitational in Las Vegas to a group of Jayhawks that made up the core of the '08 championship team.
If that's not enough for you, we can break it down scientifically. As the old cliché goes, defense wins championships, and the 2008 Kansas team was absolutely suffocating on that end of the court.
Not only did they enlist two of the greatest on-ball defenders you will ever see in Mario Chalmers and Russell Robinson, but if you somehow made your way past those two, then Kansas
featured enough beef beneath the basket to make life miserable for a team attacking the rim.
As for depth in the lineup, thensophomore Sherron Collins was as electric a sixth man as you'll ever find. Plus, if any of the big men got in foul trouble, the team had a reliable big man (and former starter) in Sasha Kaun, as well as an unheralded freshman out of Minnesota by the name of Cole Aldrich who contributed quality minutes.
However, we all know that in this digital age, it's the athleticism of a team and highlights that catch the people's eyes, and boy did that team have athleticism in spades. Think about the man that started at center, Darrell Arthur. Not only did the Texan have some sugary sweet post moves, but he was also more athletic and ran the floor better then every one of his opponents. Remember, Chaimers gets all the deserved glory from the championship game against Memphis, but it was Arthur who led the team in scoring on that magical
KU
night in the Alamodome.
Last but not least, you have to consider the leadership. That year, Bill Self went from the best coach never to reach a Final Four to a coach who served notice that his program would remain atop the college basketball mountain for years to come. This was the team that perfected the "Bill Self Weave." This was the team that perfected the high-low pass, and lastly, this was the team that showed that the alley-oop is simultaneously deadly and awesome. What more could you want out of a championship team? That's why the 2008 Kansas Jayhawks should be considered one of the greatest championship teams ever.

It's going to be easy to focus on the 30-point loss to Notre Dame, but the Jayhawks have to put that behind them and remember how great and memorable the season has been. The seniors won't ever play another game wearing the crimson and blue, so why remember the one bad blemish they had in otherwise amazing season.

Davis led the team with 25 points, and was the only player besides Monica Engelman, who scored 10 points, to score in the double digits. Under pressure, Davis delivered more than any of her teammates did.

Cinderella story ends for Jayhawks
NATHAN FORDYCE nforceyce@kansan.com
It had been a sweet ride for the Kansas lahayws until Sunday.
Before Sunday's showdown with the No.1 seed Notre Dame Fighting Irish, the Jayhawks hadn't shot under 45 percent, and on top of that, hadn't allowed an opponent to shoot over 38 percent in the tournament.
That all flipped in a chance to punch a ticket to the Elite Eight. The Cinderella story of the Jayhawk season came to an end as they couldn't make enough shots nor get enough stops to try to contain the high-octane offense of the Irish.
"When they are comfortable and confident, they play well," Kansas senior guard Angel Goodrich said after the 93-63 loss. "You have to make them uncomfortable and we did not do that today. We did not disrupt their flow at all and they did a good job of taking advantage of that."
The Irish seemed comfortable all day as they shot nearly 54 percent from the field and had four of the five starters score 13 or more points.
The lajhawks couldn't find a groove to start hitting buckets in either half of play. They managed to shoot just 37.7 percent for the game and only senior guard Monica Engelman and senior forward Carolyn Davis scored in
double figures.
But the story for the Jayhawks was the inability to contain All-American guard Skylar Diggins as she gave the Jayhawk defense fits in the scoring column, and with her ability to create shots for her teammates.
"Skylar [Diggins] is as good as advertised," Goodrich said. "She is the whole package. She gets everyone involved; she knows how to create for herself and her teammates."

Diggins went 11-of-19 for 27 points and also had nine assists on her way to the Elite Eight.
"I thought Skylar [Diggins] did a great job on [Angel] Goodrich," Notre Dame coach Muffet Graw said. "She still had a great floor game with 13 assists, but I thought we were able to contain her a little bit more." [Carolyn] Davis was a tough matchup for us. She played really well, but I was pleased with our second half. We shot the ball extremely well, and got our running game going."
Diggins wasn't the only Irish who gave the Jayhawks fits while they were on the defensive side. Natalie Achonwa, Kayla McBribe and Jewell Loyd combined to shoot 56.3 percent and eight assists.

GOING FOR THE WIN
A RISK UNREWARDED
BLAKE SCHUSTER
bschuster@kansan.com
Arlington, Texas — When it came down to it, when the Jayhawks had their last shot to perform a miracle and send Cowboys Stuart into a comeback and blue
frenzy, Kansas coach Bill Self put it to a vote.
The jayhaws had been in this situation plenty of times before: late in the game, clock winding down and a decision to make. The routine wasn't going to change.
It was time to move past the fact that Michigan erased a 12-point deficit with just over six
minutes left. There was nothing more Kansas could do about Trey Burke's 28-foot 3-pointer that tied the game with a handful of ticks remaining.
With Kansas down 87-85, pure democracy was the only option.
So Self gathered
his four seniors and posed the question:
Do you want to go for the tie or the win?
The ballots were unanimous.
"Whenever your season comes down to one possession," Jeff Withey said. "Why tie and go into another overtime?"
As 9.4 seconds remained on the clock, Elijah Johnson started up the left side and set the final play into action as he stepped past
half court
Jeff Withey ran up top to provide a fake screen while Johnson cut to his right, looking to drive into the lane.
There was no pressure from Michigan on Johnson. He was coasting around like the gym was empty, seemingly on pure muscle memory. And at that point it really was.
"It's a play we run all the time," Kevin Young said. "Almost every time we ran it it's worked."
"Whenever your season comes down to one possession, why tie and go into another overtime?"
The moment didn't appear to faze the layhawks either.
Three times this season, Kansas had fought through an extra

And Johnson was attacking
against Oklahoma State and Johnson's unconscious shooting in a rematch with the Cyclones.
If anything, it was a moment Kansas had been primed for. If anything, you would think the Wolverines didn't want to go another five minutes with this Kansas team.
"We weren't shook," Young said. "We've played in close games before. We just tried to stay confident and keep attacking."
He had blown by every Michigan defender that had come his way as he glided into the lane and suddenly all that separated Kansas from defeat was a poorly contested layup.
Although the Jayhawks will admit they did let up towards the end of regulation. Kansas had been up my as many as 14 points in the second half.
Even with Michigan's Burke starting to heat up, the Jayhawks had been able to control him all game. Keeping him silent for a few more minutes didn't seem to be an impossible task until it was.
After holding Burke to 0-4 shooting and five assists in the first half, he exploded in the final minutes and finished with 23 points.
"It was crunch time and he showed up," Withey said. "That's what great players do."
Still Kansas didn't have to worry about Burke's shooting at the moment; Johnson was floating up to the rim with a second overtime in sight.
Travis Releford was the only help down below if there was a rebound, but he had been boxed out. This had to be the shot, like it or not, and it had to go down.
That just wasn't how Johnson saw it.
As the ball was ready to roll off his fingertips and carom on the backboard Johnson contorted his body and fired a crosscourt pass toward an open, albeit far away, Naadir Tharpe.
"I wasn't expecting to get it," Tharpe said, "I guess he didn't feel like he had an angle to shoot it."
As erratic of a pass as it was, Tharpe reached back and grabbed it with one hand, and was open enough to move closer to the 3-point line.
At most there were four steps, but the clock was only counting milliseconds and defenders were closing all around him.
Tharpe never had an opportunity to set himself for the shot. He had to shoot the ball.
Yet the off-balance heave still had a chance as it clanked off the backboard high and hit the rim.
It just wasn't the right part of the iron, which became evident as the ball fell back down to earth with the weight of a fan base on top of it.
"The call was just let Elijah make a play." Withey said.
But it wasn't the one the
But it wasn't the one the Kansas fans wanted. As Johnson hung in the moment just long enough
to think about it, it was clear he was never going to play for double overtime.
The team had decided they were going for the win, and this was the way they chose to go out.
"I could have taken the shot," Johnson admitted. "I passed up a shot to try and get a better one."

Seniors end college career with 30-point loss
MAX GOODWIN
mgoodwin@kansan.com
In the final minute of the 93-63 loss by Kansas to No. 2 Notre Dame in the Sweet Sixteen, senior point guard Angel Goodrich sat on the bench staring down at the ground.
To the right of Goodrich, senior teammate Monica Engelman gazed straight ahead with a look of disappointment. Senior forward Carolyn Davis covered her face with her jersey before collapsing into her chair.
All three knew that they had just left the court for the final time of their college careers.
Their dreams had just been halted by a 5-foot-9 senior point guard with a deadly offensive game and an unmatched determination to win.
Skylar Diggins unleashed her shooting ability with 22 points in the first half against Kansas. In the second, she assisted her teammates and showed just how solid this Notre Dame team is from the backcourt, to the post, to the bench.
Diggins and the Irish believe they are on their way to raising a national championship trophy after falling one win short the past two seasons. Carolyn Davis and the Jayhawks were convinced that they had the ability to stun the Irish, but Diggins was too much.
Davis caught pass after pass from Goodrich in the post, laying most of those passes into the hoop for 25 points on 11-for-17 shooting. But it wasn't enough to match what Notre Dame was doing at the other end in scoring 93 points.
Goodrich ended her career with 12 assists, the most she has had in a game all season. She struggled shooting the ball, going 3-for-11 from the field. She also turned the ball over six times.
Kansas showed an ability to score with the Irish for the first five minutes of the game, but from there Notre Dame showed a shooting consistency that Kansas didn't have. As Kansas went the next five minutes without a bucket, Notre Dame continued to score at will.
Engelman struggled to shoot the ball in her final game as a Jayhawk, going 4-for-16 with 10 points, after scoring a career-high 27 against South Carolina in the second round.
In the second half, Diggins' mentality went from that of a scorer to that of a facilitator. She balanced the 22 first half points with seven second-half assists.
With all of the national media attention adding hype to the Diggins-Goodrich matchup, Diggins proved why many consider her the best point guard in the game, but she could not have done it without the support of her teammates.
As a team, the Jayhawks shot 38 percent from the field. Goodrich drove to the basket and kicked the ball out for three-point shots, but Kansas went just 2-for-10 from behind the arc.
For the second straight season, the Jayhawks' run at March Madness ends in the Sweet Sixteen.
Diggins used screens from her teammates and took advantage when the Kansas post players didn't immediately cut off her path. She created shots for her teammates and they drained them.

The senior passed up a potential game-tying layup on the final play of overtime, missed the front end of a one-and-one with 12 seconds left in regulation that would have given Kansas a two-possession lead and committed three turnovers in the final 9:30 of regulation that led to six Michigan points.

Michigan surprises Jayhawks in OT

ARLINGTON, Texas - Senior Jeff Withey sat at his locker, trying to explain what happened, how a team that starts four seniors and won 31 games and a ninth Big 12 title could let a 14-point lead evaporate in the final seven minutes of regulation and let a 10-point lead go in the final three minutes.

There's plenty of explanation for what happened Michigan point guard Trey Burke finished the first half with zero points, then exploded for 23 points in the second half and overtime. Freshman hisfor Mitch McGary, making his fifth career start, scored 25 points, corralled 14 rebounds and converted 12 of 17 shots.
Kansas committed costly turnovers in the final four minutes that led to seven Michigan points, missed the front end of a one-and-one with 12 seconds remaining in the second half and questionably passed up scoring opportunities.
No explanation, though, will change the fact that none of the Jayhawks' accomplishments turned this season into a great one. Kansas fell at least two victories short of that.
TRAVIS YOUNG/KANSAN
"We had a chance to be great, and that's what's going to hurt is definitely slipping up with four minutes left," senior center Jeff Withey said. "It's just tough. I don't know. It's sad."
Freshman guard Ben McLemore dunks during the second half of the match against Michigan in the Cowboys Stadium Friday afternoon for the NCAA Sweet 16 Tournament. McLemore scored 20 total points. Kansas was defeated by the no.4 seed Michigan 85-87 in overtime.
Playing in what proved to be his final collegiate game, Withey established a low-post presence in the first half, and he and McGary engaged in a chess match on the block. McGary looked for ways to get around Withey's length, and Withey searched for ways to exploit his height advantage over the freshman.
Early in the game, senior guard Elijah Johnson hit McGary's mid-section as he tried to get around a screen McGary set for Trey Burke. The officials saddled Johnson with a flagrant one-foul, but McGary missed both free throws and couldn't convert a jumper in the lane over Withey, who connected on a short jumper over McGary.
Later, Withey hit a turnaround fadeaway jumper over McGary to give Kansas a 10-point lead. Burke promptly paraded down the court, pulling Withey away from McGary. Burke sent the ball to McGary who slammed home two points before Withey could recover.
"We knew that Burke was going to drive in and pass the ball," Withey said. "Whenever Burke drove into the lane, I was there to usually contest his shot, so we wanted to take away the corner threes more than him driving to the basket."
The first half battle was nearly even. Both players had five rebounds. McGary had 11 points compared to Withey's eight, but the
senior connected on all four field goal attempts and had two blocks compared to McGary's one.
Thanks to Burke's second half explosion, Kansas slowly lost its momentum down low. Burke, who was scoreless in the first half, finally found his rhythm, and ended regulation with 18 points and 10 assists. He coupled with McGary to frequently execute the pick-and-roll, and Withey had trouble keeping McGary from getting open after rolling out of the screen.
"That's such a tough guard for jeff when you got a guy that screens and rolls the basket and you put four shooters around him," coach Bill Self said. "I thought we would do a better job defending the five one ball screen, but we didn't."
On the offensive end, McGary forced Withey into awkward, out-of-position jumpers in the second half. Withey could only muster
McGary and Burke's second-half duet rivaled those of Baylor's Pierre Jackson and Cory Jefferson and Oklahoma State's Marcus Smart and Markel Brown when two teams defeated Kansas earlier in the season.
four points on 2-7 shooting and two blocks. McGary went 5-8 in the second half and registered 10 points and seven rebounds. The Jayhawks' four big men combined for 10 rebounds in the second half.
Kansas was able to counter with freshman guard Ben McLemore for the only time this tournament, as he converted four 3-pointers, shot 8-15 from the field and scored 20 points. His first 3-pointer of the tournament came midway through the first half and ended Kansas' string of 22 consecutive points in the paint to begin the game.
He scored 10 points in under four minutes during one stretch
McLemore didn't score again, and when he picked up his fourth foul with 8:39 remaining, his night was finished offensively. He took only one more shot in the game, a layup that he couldn't get to drop.
of the second half and said he "felt like the regular Ben," but he picked up his third foul with 10 minutes remaining in regulation.
McLemore said he hasn't made a decision about whether he will enter the NBA Draft or stay in school. If he does leave, Kansas will lose all five of its starters for the first time since winning the 2008 NCAA title.

"I hate to have it go down like this," freshman forward Perry Ellis said. "It's just sad. I really wanted to help them just push farther, but we just fell short."

The electronic cigarette, also known by its nickname the "e-cig" is changing the way people smoke. Except there's no smoke involved.
Inde
Eric Adell, a senior from Olathe, picked up his electronic cigarette three months ago in his efforts to quit smoking.
"I started using an e-cig as a way to quit smoking." Adell said. "I've tried other things before, but so far this is the only method that has been really effective for me."
The electronic cigarette was originally invented in the 1960s, but did not make a full appear-
Science and Health spoke at the hearing in support of electronic cigarettes. Ross is certain that the electronic cigarette is safer than a regular cigarette.
"The substances that are being provided in e-cigarettes — water, glycerin or propylene glycol, and vaporized nicotine at various dosages — are quite benign and, at worst, far less harmful than the products of tobacco combustion." Ross said at the hearing.
"Electronic cigarettes, of course, are not cigarettes. They're nicotine delivery devices." Ross.

Ross explains that electronic cigarettes should be praised, not punished, because they do not emit harmful smoke and chemicals like regular cigarettes.

"The kit initially cost me around $40 and came with a rechargeable battery and a small bottle of liquid nicotine." Adell said. "I spend about $10 a week on flavored nicotine liquid. You can buy cheaper stuff, but I find that it's worth it to spend a little more on a higher quality brand, and you get a better selection of flavors. Compared to smoking a pack a day, e-cigarettes are significantly cheaper."
Adell says they're cheaper, too.

Letter from the Editor
Signing your name on the dotted line at the bottom of a lease may seem easy, but there are countless steps to complete before putting to paper. In addition to the obvious responsibilities that come along with being a tenant, there are other duties that may not be as obvious - such as hidden clauses in your lengthy lease agreement. This apartment guide is dedicated to the ins and outs of the leasing process.
College students are notorious for overlooking the fine print and signing their names without thoroughly reading the document. When making a decision on where to live next year, be sure to look for warning signs in your next lease. Leases are no walk in the park. Luckily, page five of this guide breaks down the legal jargon for you. Not sure what to look for? Read 'Red Flags' on page 10 to learn about the warning signs that frequently appear in a lease. This guide also includes information on Kansas leasing laws, Lawrence housing codes and the process of terminating a lease before your contract is up.
Signing a lease does not have to be a complicated process. Hopefully this apartment guide will guide you to signing a sound lease.
Happy Renting!

BINDING CONTRACT
Clarify legal language before signing
KELSEY BARRETT
kbarrett@kansan.com
A lease can be a confusing document that first-time signers might not fully understand. Each one differs in its contents but they all serve a common purpose of contracting an agreement between a landlord and tenant.
"It is a binding contract that states in thorough detail the policies of each apartment complex," Andrea Potter, Sales Manager at the Grove, said.
Each property owner will explain in their lease the policies, rent rates, penalties and responsibilities of the renter.
"Whenever you are signing anything, pay attention to detail, especially when it comes to a contract," Potter said.
Before signing, it is a good idea to ask questions about anything that is unclear. Make sure to be aware of any additional expenses, like utilities or cable.
"Always read things that you intend to sign thoroughly. Not just leases, but everything." Ryan Gash, a senior from Derby, said. "Fine print can be killer."
One issue that might arise is unfamiliar wording. A lease is a legally binding contract, so sometimes it is written in a way that seems foreign to many students.
A big factor to weigh in before committing to a lease is the budget. College already makes people's budgets tight, so developing a realistic
price range can help make a living arrangement less stressful.
"Make sure you can financially make it work," Potter said. "Some students don't fully understand that when they sign a lease they are committing to pay rent each month for what is often an entire year. Leaving an apartment and ceasing payments is considered breaking the lease and can have a negative impact to not only the student's credit, but their guarantor's (co-signers) credit as well."
Even though signing a lease holds you legally accountable for fulfilling the term, there is an option to sublease, meaning someone takes over the remaining lease period. There is usually an up-front fee the renter pays as well as being responsible for finding a replacement tenant.
"When trying to sublease your apartment, try and offer an incentive to grab people's attention and get them to come to you to sign," Potter said.
Although the subleasing option is available, it is better to do research ahead of time to find the best living situation. To avoid any surprises later on, make sure to know the lease inside and out, and ask questions.

RESPONSIBILITY
Various lease types offer students options
ELLY GRIMM egrimm@kansan.com
When moving into a new apartment, the new tenant must sign a lease. Here in Lawrence, the apartment complexes offer either shared leasing, where every tenant in a unit is signed to one lease, or individual leasing, where each individual tenant is under his or her own lease.
LeannaMar Townhomes is one of the complexes in Lawrence that offers shared leasing. Kyle Bartel, the property manager at LeannaMar Townhomes, agrees with the property's policy.
"The way our townhomes are set up, it wouldn't work out any other way because it shouldn't be decided by strangers who will live with each other," Bartel said.
Bartel does note some positives he notices with the policy, including the ability to sublease in and out, and it puts tenants at ease because they're all bound to one lease. However, one of the drawbacks to the policy he mentions is the amount of phone calls from concerned parents of the student tenants.
"We allow this way because it's much simpler," said Bartel. "Then they're all responsible for bills and rent."
"Most places have shared leasing but we realized that we should be competitive with the other properties in town," said Drew Deck, community manager of SouthPointe Apartments and Park Villas.
SouthPointe Apartments and Park Villas, another apartment complex in Lawrence, offers a combination of shared and individual leasing. Most of the units have the shared leasing policy in place, but the property does have some units with the individual leasing option.

Deck said the main reason the complex offers

Some people prefer signing leases alone without having to rely on another person on a legal document.
both is because it provides flexibility.
"Having both gives the students more options as opposed to being locked in to one or the other," Deck said. "I think it's good that we provide both because it offers more options and flexibilities, not just for the students, but for the landlords too."
However, Deck also said that the policy can be a bit confusing to first-time apartment hunters who inquire about the property.
"People don't understand why some of the units have individual leasing but not others," Deck said.

Later, Withey hit a turnaround fadeaway jumper over McGary to give Kansas a 10-point lead. Burke promptly paraded down the court, pulling Withey away from McGary. Burke sent the ball to McGary who slammed home two points before Withey could recover.
"We knew that Burke was going to drive in and pass the ball." Withey said. "Whenever Burke drove into the lane, I was there to usually contest his shot, so we wanted to take away the corner threes more than him driving to the basket."

He coupled with McGary to frequently execute the pick-and-roll, and Withey had trouble keeping McGary from getting open after rolling out of the screen.
"That's such a tough guard for jeff when you got a guy that screens and rolls the basket and you put four shooters around him," coach Bill Self said. "I thought we would do a better job defending the five-one ball screen, but we didn't."
On the offensive end, McGary forced Withe into awkward, out-of-position jumpers in the second half. Withe could only muster

Kansas was able to counter with freshman guard Ben McLemore for the only time this tournament, as he converted four 3-pointers, shot 8-15 from the field and scored 20 points. His first 3-pointer of the tournament came midway through the first half and ended Kansas' string of 22 consecutive points in the paint to begin the game.
McGary and Burke's second-half duet rivaled those of Baylor's Pierre Jackson and Cory Jefferson and Oklahoma State's Marcus Smart and Markel Brown when those two teams defeated Kansas earlier in the season.

METHORE didn't go again and when he picked up his fourth foul with 8.39 remaining, his night was finished offensively. He took only one more shot in the game, a layup that he couldn't get to drop.
McLemore said he hasn't made a decision about whether he will enter the NBA Draft or stay in school. If he does leave, Kansas will lose all five of its starters for the first time since winning the 2008 NCAA title.
"I hate to have it go down like this," freshman forward Perry Ellis said. "It's just sad. I really wanted to help them just push farther, but we just fell short."

LEASING ASSISTANCE

Some leases require a co-signer if the person does not meet the leasing requirements. Most people have their parents co-sign.
Co-signer can help low-credit tenants
IBRET IVY
bivy@kansan.com
First-time apartment shopper sometimes don't even know what a co-signer is.
First-time apartment shoppers often need a good amount of help financially. It can be hard for a young renter to afford an apartment with low credit or a part time job. When this issue occurs a co-signer can be of assistance.
"A co-signer needs to be financially stable and help out whenever needed," said Emily Pahls, a junior from Beloit. "They also need to know all the ing and outs of the
"I've learned that a co-signer is someone that helps you pay for a loan or a piece of property," said Nate Greenley, a sophomore from Overland Park. "In my experiences, they have been there for backup, just in case you aren't able to get a payment in on time."
When it comes to apartments, co-signers are responsible to pay rent in case the leasee is unable to pay it at the time. This means that co-signers have just as many responsibilities as the person renting the property.
and cons of the apartment itself."
Finding a co-signer who is able to comprehend everything about the lease while also being financially stable is crucial. Some renters may have a hard time deciding who should fill the co-signer role. Parents are commonly used during the co-signing process.
"I've have my dad co-sign for me before," Pahis said. "I trusted him to help and put my money wherever it needed to go."
"My first co-signer was my grandpa," said Machella Irvin, a junior from Hutchinson. "He was able to help with insurance and he really helped me out."
Other family members can step into the role as well.
"The first time I chose a co-signer, I went with an old family friend," Greenly said. "I had more trust in him than in anybody else, and he really came through when I needed him to."
If a family member is not an option, a renter can put trust in friends or people they've known for a long time.

Protect your tax refund.
Legal Services offers leasing advice, help
JULIE ETZLER
jetzler@kansan.com
Room decorations, amenities and roommates are some of the first things that people think of when looking for an apartment. While those are important things to look for, the lease
may be what requires more attention in the end.
Bill Larzalere, chief litigation attorney for Legal Services for Students, offers advice to students to make smart decisions when it comes to leasing.
Legal Services for Students is located in the Burge Union in room 312. Students can use the services when dealing with disagreements between landlords and tenants.
Larzalere
ASHLEIGH LEE/KANSAN
"One of the main things
that students should look for on their lease is to check for automatic renewal," Larzalere said. "Some leases have to give time in advance before renewing for the next year, but otherwise they automatically roll over."
Larzalee said. "It could cost up to $1,000 to get rid of them properly."
A new clause that landlords are putting in their leases is a bed bug liability clause. If bed bugs are found in the apartment, then the landlords will have the tenants pay to get rid of the pesky bugs.
"Bed bugs are difficult and expensive to treat."
Larzalere also offers advice on how Legal Services for Students helps students in the apartment-hunting endeavor.
"We are a free service to students and they can come to us with a problem or if they have questions about anything," Larzalere said. "The biggest problem that we usually have is when people don't get their deposits back when they move out of the apartment. Unless there are damages or owed fees, then the tenant is supposed to get the deposit back within 30 days of moving out.
Legal Services for Students also frequently sees students having maintenance problems, from leaky roofs and flooded basements to mold and insects.
When these problems arise, Larzalere says to call the city code inspector also. They will look at the property for no charge and can come back for a reinspection to make sure
"The first thing that you want to do with a maintenance problem is talk to the landlord first," Larzalere said. "But if the landlord doesn't respond or get back to you, then Legal Services will help you out."
that the landlord made the correct changes. The city of Lawrence is also trying to require licenses for every apartment and have random inspections.
"Right now it's just single-family houses that have to get a license before renting." Larzarele said. "Now the city is trying to expand it to apartments and choose around 25 percent of
apartments at random to be inspected every year. This should improve housing greatly for students."
Legal Services for Students is located on the third floor of the Burge Union and is open Monday through Friday.

WHAT DO YOU THINK?
What advice would you give to someone leasing for the first time?
PAPMAN FLYNDIBJURT
Josh Huelskamp, junior from Augusta
"I would tell someone that is moving into their first place to be aware of the charges that they will bill you for when you move out. Take pictures of your apartment before you move everything in."
"Make sure you don't settle on the first thing that seems right. Try and find a place you can stay a few years. Moving gets old quickly."
Bria Sweany, junior from Salina
Seth Amott, junior from Wichita
"Acknowledge online ratings. From my experience they are 98 percent true and very helpful when wanting to know the hard truth about a complex or location."
"Read the lease word for word. I skimmed over my recent lease and now I regret it daily. It might be tempting to skim it, but don't."
Gordon Cave, senior from Augusta

After weeks and months of apartment searching, students finally find one, and there are a few last things to make it official when signing the lease. As college students, we need to be careful not to be tricked by the fine print on the lease.
Henry Chan, a junior from Overland Park, signed his lease in December for the fall semester. Chan, along with his four roommates, locked down his lease at the Legends Place.
Kanse maining
"We read through [the lease]," Chan said. "It was 12 pages, and we picked out the main points, and really tried to understand it. We spent a good 15 minutes on it. We had to go page by page, and initial on each page, so we had to go through it."
No student wants to spend time reading a long document full of text, but it is important to read all the fine print on a lease before agreeing to the terms.
Here are some important things to look for in a lease:
It is easy to get caught up in the excitement of moving into your own apartment with your friends, but there are some things to look out for before signing the lease so you do not lose
ASHLEIGH LEE/KANSAN
Check on the security deposit. Some apartments ask for a security deposit to cover future damages. When you move out, if the apartment is in the same condition as when you first rented it, the security deposit is returned.
BE sure to carefully read a lease before signing. If a lease is violated, the landlord has the authority to fine the tenante.
Ask for a walk-through of the apartment. Make sure the apartment is in good condition, and note anything that is damaged. It is important to let the landlord know of any damages you find so you do not get charged when you move out.
["The Legends employees] gave you a tour, and talked about the little details, and had the actual contract so you hammer out everything you are worried about," Chan said.
Know what the pet policy is. A lot of college students have pets, but are not aware of pet policies. Not all apartment complexes charge for pets, but make sure you know if you have a pet. Chan does not have a pet, but found the pet charge pricey when he was signing his lease.
["The Legends Place] have a pet policy, so you can have cats or dogs," Chan said. "What
caught me was the few hundred dollars to have a pet."
Check on extra utility costs. The rent might seem to be a reasonable price, but after utilities, the price will increase. Make sure you know what utilities are paid for, and what you must pay. The price can add up after considering the
utilities. Also there can be a first-time utility charge if you are to pay for electricity, gas, or water. It depends on the company you use, and if you are required to pay for it.

QUOTE OF THE GAME
After going scoreless in the first half, Michigan guard Trey Burke scored 23 points in the second half and overtime, including a deep 3-pointer in both the second half and overtime.
"I could have taken the shot." Johnson admitted. "I passed up a shot to try and get a better one."
YUNG HAN
- Elijah Johnson talking about the final shot of the game.
Johnson
lane over Withey, who connected on a short jumper over McGary.
Later, Withey hit a turnaround fadeaway jumper over McGary to give Kansas a 10-point lead. Burke promptly paraded down the court, pulling Withey away from McGary. Burke sent the ball to McGary who slammed home two points before Withey could recover.
"We knew that Burke was going to drive in and pass the ball," Withey said. "Whenever Burke drove into the lane, I was there to usually contest his shot, so we wanted to take away the corner threes more than him driving to the basket."
The first half battle was nearly even. Both players had five rebounds. McGary had 11 points compared to Withey's eight, but the
explosion, Kansas slowly lost its momentum down low. Burke, who was scoreless in the first half, finally found his rhythm, and ended regulation with 18 points and 10 assists. He coupled with McGary to frequently execute the pick-and-roll, and Withey had trouble keeping McGary from getting open after rolling out of the screen.
"That's such a tough guard for jeff when you got a guy that screens and rolls the basket and you put four shooters around him," coach Bill Self said. "I thought we would do a better job defending the five one ball screen, but we didn't."
On the offensive end, McGary forced Withey into awkward, out-of-position jumpers in the second half. Withey could only muster
Jayhawks to a big men comuneed for 10 rebounds in the second half.
McGary and Burke's second-half duet rivaled those of Baylor's Pierre Jackson and Cory Jefferson and Oklahoma State's Marcus Smart and Markel Brown when those two teams defeated Kansas earlier in the season.
He scored 10 points in under four minutes during one stretch
Kansas was able to counter with freshman guard Ben McLemore for the only time this tournament, as he converted four 3-pointers, shot 8-15 from the field and scored 20 points. His first 3-pointer of the tournament came midway through the first half and ended Kansas' string of 22 consecutive points in the paint to begin the game.
McLenmore thank score again, and when he picked up his fourth foul with 8.39 remaining, his night was finished offensively. He took only one more shot in the game, a layup that he couldn't get to drop.
McLemore said he hasn't made a decision about whether he will enter the NBA Draft or stay in school. If he does leave, Kansas will lose all five of its starters for the first time since winning the 2008 NCAA title.
"I hate to have it go down like this" fresh forward Perry Ellis said. "It's just sad. I really wanted to help them just push farther, but we just fell short."

From the Kansas Tenants Handbook:
The Kansas Residential Landlord and Tenant Act lists rights and responsibilities for Kansas landlords and tenants. It has 33 sections and covers landlords and tenants that don't have written agreements as well as those that do.
Just like the Landlord/Tenant Act, any city or county codes or laws in your area that have to do with housing will affect both you and your landlord. You should find out what they are and know what they say.
Before you are able to move into a rental property, your landlord may ask for a security deposit. The money is placed with your landlord as insurance against the risk that you will damage the apartment, leave owing rent, or cause the landlord expenses because you have not followed the law or your rental agreement.
You should try to get your landlord to put your security deposit in an interest-bearing savings account, paying you the interest when you get the deposit back. This is not required by law at this time, but since it is your money being held in trust, it is only fair.
If you agree to clean the premises or perform maintenance and repair in lieu of a security deposit, be sure to get it in writing or included in the lease. This must be carefully agreed to:
How many hours at what rate? Who pays for supplies and materials? When must the work be done? Will you receive a cash return of the security deposit when you move out and leave the place in good condition?
There are several laws that say how security deposits can be used, and how to get them back. You can protect your security deposit by remembering a few important things:
Landlords do not have to collect security deposits. They may, but they don't have to. There are limits on how much a landlord can charge for a deposit:
Unfurnished apartment — 1 month's rent
Furnished apartment — 1 1/2 month's rent
Pets — extra 1/2 month's rent
So, if the rent on your apartment is $400 per month and the apartment is unfurnished, your deposit can be no more than $400. If it is furnished, the deposit can be no more than $600. You could be charged an extra $200 if you have a pet. With pets and furniture, then, it could go as high as $800. These rules are especially important to watch if you are renting with roommates and the landlord is collecting a deposit from each of you. The total cannot legally go over the limits.

DEPOSITS
Take precautions in order to get a deposit back
MEGAN LUCAS
mlucas@kansan.com
Security deposits are one of the first things tenants should be aware of while renting an apartment.
At The Reserve, tenants either need a security deposit or a co-signer. The majority of the renters there do not have a security deposit.
Chase Court has a $200 per one bedroom security deposit and a $300 security deposit for a two bedroom. The money after the charges will be returned later that month after the move-out inspection.
Park 25 has a $250 security deposit regularly, and also offers a month-to-month deal, with $75 instead of $200.
During move in at High Pointe, a representative from management and the tenant do an inspection for damages, as well as a move-out inspection later.
"On the move-in inspection, know the damages, if it's not clean or if it's already damaged", High Pointe Property Manager Emily Strusz said. "Document everything. Get
a copy of the lease two months before move out"
According to Strusz, repairs and paint needing touch ups are not something to be charged for. However, pet-damaged carpet, stains, holes in the walls and something as small as not replacing burnt out light bulbs are.
According to Park 25 leasing consultant Jordan Gormley, the lease states that tenants should leave the apartment in the same condition as it was in the beginning.
"Most of the charges I see are cleaning," Kory Wilcoxson, community manager of the Reserve, said. "Don't leave your trash behind. If you truly make an effort, they won't charge you."
Wilcoxson recommended taking pictures to document for protection.
"Go the extra mile at the end of the lease term," Wilcoxson said.
Tenants will also want to make sure that maintenance is taken care of, as well as thorough cleaning.
"A pro for the company is not having [a security deposit]," Wilcoxson said. "There are no good scenarios; nine out of 10 people are upset by it, I like not having it, either you owe or you don't owe."
Edited by Alyssa Scottt
Before moving into an apartment, be sure to record any previous damages. Any damages seen when moving out will come out of the security deposit.

Later, Withey hit a turnaround fadeaway jumper over McGary to give Kansas a 10-point lead. Burke promptly paraded down the court, pulling Withey away from McGary. Burke sent the ball to McGary who slammed home two points before Withey could recover.
"We knew that Burke was going to drive in and pass the ball." Withey said. "Whenever Burke drove into the lane, I was there to usually contest his shot, so we wanted to take away the corner threes more than him driving to the basket."
The first half battle was nearly even. Both players had five rebounds. McGary had 11 points compared to Withey's eight, but the
explosion, Kansas slowly lost its momentum down low. Burke, who was scoreless in the first half, finally found his rhythm, and ended regulation with 18 points and 10 assists. He coupled with McGary to frequently execute the pick-and-roll, and Withey had trouble keeping McGary from getting open after rolling out of the screen.
"That's such a tough guard for Jeff when you got a guy that screens and rolls the basket and you put four shooters around him," coach Bill Self said. "I thought we would do a better job defending the five-one ball screen, but we didn't."
On the offensive end, McGary forced Withey into awkward, out-of-position jumpers in the second half. Withey could only muster

Kansas was able to counter with freshman guard Ben McLemore for the only time this tournament, as he converted four 3-pointers, shot 8-15 from the field and scored 20 points. His first 3-pointer of the tournament came midway through the first half and ended Kansas' string of 22 consecutive points in the paint to begin the game.
McElmore hurt score again and when he picked up his fourth foul with 8.39 remaining, his night was finished offensively. He took only one more shot in the game, a layup that he couldn't get to drop.
McLemore said he hasn't made a decision about whether he will enter the NBA Draft or stay in school. If he does leave, Kansas will lose all five of its starters for the first time since winning the 2008 NCAA title.
"I hate to have it go down like this," freshman forward Perry Ellis said. "It's just sad. I really wanted to help them just push farther, but we just fell short."

PLANNING AHEAD
Move-out processes cannot be overlooked
ALLISON KITE akite@kansan.com
When tenants first sign an apartment lease, move-out day is miles down the road and can be a tough thing to keep in mind. However, moving out is an involved process, and must be thoroughly planned. Not planning ahead could cost the tenant money.
The move-out process, in theory, starts in January when tenants should start thinking about whether or not they want to renew their lease. Danielle Deener, a graduate student at the University and an employee of Gage Management, said that Gage Management assumes that tenants will be moving out, and puts their apartment or house on the market but gives students the opportunity to return.
"We're just kind of assuming that their lease is going to end and we're going to have to get it rented out." Deener said. "But what we do is we do give our tenants the first chance to renew, so in January, we go ahead and send out a renewal letter to all of our tenants asking if they want to renew."
Before tenants move out, many landlords, complexes or management companies require certain things to be done, including, in some cases, carpet cleaning. While some companies elect to have the carpets cleaned by the company of their choice, other complexes give tenants a cleaning checklist and allow the tenant to be in charge of cleaning.
"It's outlined in their lease, too. There's a move-out cost schedule, what things cost to get cleaned," said Ben Poff, an employee at Highpointe Apartment Complex, a First Management property. "Every apartment has
to be commercially carpet-cleaned. We don't really charge them any more than the company does."
Cleaning may not seem like a big deal, but students can lose some of their security deposit if the apartment or house isn't up to the expectations of the landlord. Gage Management properties have a check-in and check-out system, allowing the tenant and landlord to be on the same page in terms of expectations at move-out.
"We take 56 pictures; we go room by room and document any kind of damage," Deener said. "We also give our tenants an additional five days to document any kind of damage they might see moving in."
This allows the tenant and landlord to have proof of what damage was there from the beginning and what damage was caused by the tenant. At move-out, the process is similar.
"About a month before they move out, we send them a cleaning list and everything they have to do for us," Deener said.
PAGE 13
Finally, Gage Management compares the check-in to the check-out photos.
"We just compare the check-in to the checkout," Deener said. "Pretty straightforward. And then that's how we determine how much of their security deposit they get back."
Whether a tenant intends to stay in an apartment for the summer or for multiple years, move-out is an important task to keep in mind because it can mean the difference between getting a security deposit back or losing that large sum of money. The more the tenant plans ahead, the less stressful the process will be.

Renters insurance recommended for students
egrimm@kansan.com
ELLY GRIMM
When a student moves into an apartment, there are many decisions he or she must make, including where to live and how to budget. For many students, renters insurance is an important part of that budget.
"It's always important to have it, no matter what, in case something happens," Keron Sousaint, a senior from Lawrence, said.
Chris Munk, an agent with State Farm Insurance, said that people who buy renters insurance range across several groups, from students to working adults.
"Several complexes now require it around here now," Munk said. "It's not just to protect you, but also property owners."
Munk also said that roughly 70 percent of renters don't insure their possessions because they either believe it's too expensive or that the landlord's insurance will cover them. He said that a typical policy costs between $10 and $15 a month for $20,000 to $25,000 worth of protection.
"With students, it depends on how comfortable you are with your risk," Munk said. "Students don't usually think they have that much, but it can add up quickly."
for college students to have because if they're under 26, their parents' policy may not cover them.
Munk added that it's especially important
Hall Equities Group is a management company in Lawrence that requires tenants to acquire renters insurance as part of their lease agreements. The requirement has been a policy since Hall Equities Group opened in the early 2000s.
Some students who acquired renters insurance are pleased with their investment.
"I actually have a lot of electronics that I'd accidentally break myself," said Whitney Shoemaker, a sophomore from East Grand Forks, Minn. "I wanted to protect my stuff."
Park 25 Apartments and Townhomes is a complex that does not require its tenants to have renters insurance. However, its employees strongly encourage tenants to sign up for the coverage, and they explain the importance of having it. This policy has been in place since 1985.
"All owners and managers hold residents responsible for the full cost of any damage caused by the resident, family, invitates, or guests whether they have renters insurance or not," said Clark Lindstrom, the regional property manager for Park 25. "This turmoil can be avoided, or at least reduced, if the resident has a reasonable insurance policy covering both the
loss of their personal property and damages or losses caused by them to the building as well as any resulting losses incurred by neighbors."
Pinnacle Woods Apartments is another complex that does not require tenants to obtain renters insurance since management took over the property in 2010. However, the
management strongly recommends it.
"We recommend it because if something were to happen like a natural disaster, our building's insurance wouldn't cover personal possessions," said Serci Gonzalez, the property's manager. "It's never a bad idea."

The tenant shall:
(a) Comply with all obligations primarily imposed upon tenants by applicable provisions of building and housing codes materially affecting health and safety;
(b) keep that part of the premises that such tenant occupies and uses as clean and safe as the condition of the premises permit;
(c) remove from such tenant's dwelling unit all ashes, rubbish, garbage and other waste in a clean and safe manner;
(e) use in a reasonable manner all electrical, plumbing, sanitary, heating, ventilating, airconditioning and other facilities and appliances, including elevators in the premises;
(d) keep all plumbing fixtures in the dwelling unit or used by the tenant as clean as their condition permits;
(f) be responsible for any destruction, defacement, damage, impairment or removal of any part of the premises caused by an act or omission of the tenant or by any person or animal or pet on the premises at any time with the express or implied permission or consent of the tenant;
(g) not engage in conduct or allow any person or animal or pet, on the premises with the express or implied permission or consent of the tenant, to engage in conduct that will disturb the quiet and peaceful enjoyment of the premises by other tenants.

lane over Withey, who connected on a short jumper over McGary.
Later, Withey hit a turnaround fadeaway jumper over McGary to give Kansas a 10-point lead. Burke promptly paraded down the court, pulling Withey away from McGary. Burke sent the ball to McGary who slammed home two points before Withey could recover.
"We knew that Burke was going to drive in and pass the篮." Withey said. "Whenever Burke drove into the lane, I was there to usually contest his shot, so we wanted to take away the corner threes more than him driving to the basket."
The first half battle was nearly even. Both players had five rebounds. McGary had 11 points compared to Withey's eight, but the
explosion, Kansas slowly lost its momentum down low. Burke, who was scoreless in the first half, finally found his rhythm, and ended regulation with 18 points and 10 assists. He coupled with McGary to frequently execute the pick-and-roll, and Withey had trouble keeping McGary from getting open after rolling out of the screen.
"That's such a tough guard for jeff when you got a guy that screens and rolls the basket and you put four shooters around him," coach Bill Seil said. "I thought we would do a better job defending the five-one ball screen, but we did not."
On the offensive end, McGary forced Withey into awkward, out-of-position jumpers in the second half. Withey could only muster

Kansas was able to counter with freshman guard Ben McLemore for the only time this tournament, as he converted four 3-pointers, shot 8-15 from the field and scored 20 points. His first 3-pointer of the tournament came midway through the first half and ended Kansas' string of 22 consecutive points in the paint to begin the game.
McGary and Burke's second-half duet rivaled those of Baylor's Pierre Jackson and Cory Jefferson and Oklahoma State's Marcus Smart and Markel Brown when two teams defeated Kansas earlier in the season.

McEnimore thunk score again, and when he picked up his fourth foul with 8.39 remaining, his night was finished offensively. He took only one more shot in the game, a layup that he couldn't get to drop.
McLemore said he hasn't made a decision about whether he will enter the NBA Draft or stay in school. If he does leave, Kansas will lose all five of its starters for the first time since winning the 2008 NCAA title.
"I hate to have it go down like this." freshman forward Perry Ellis said. "It's just sad. I really wanted to help them just push farther, but we just fell short."

How to properly terminate your lease
If you are looking to terminate a lease before the agreed upon date, there are several steps. Outlined below is how to terminate tenancy as stated in the Kansas Residential Landlord and Tenant Act.
58-2570. Termination of tenancy; notice; holdover by tenant; remedies.
(a) The landlord or the tenant may terminate a week-to-week tenancy by a written notice given to the other at least seven days prior to the termination date specified in the notice.
(b) The landlord or the tenant may terminate a month-to-month tenancy by a written notice given to the other party stating that the tenancy shall terminate upon a periodic rent-paying date not less than 30 days after the receipt of the notice, except that not more than 15 days' written notice by a tenant shall be necessary to terminate any such tenancy where the tenant is in the military service of
the United States and termination of the tenancy is necessitated by military orders. Any rental agreement for a definite term of more than 30 days shall not be construed as a month-to-month tenancy, even though the rent is reserved payable at intervals of 30 days.
(c) If the tenant remains in possession without the landlord's consent after expiration of the term of the rental agreement or its termination, the landlord may bring an action for possession. In addition, if the tenant's holdover is intentional and not in good faith the landlord may recover an amount not more than 11/2 months' periodic rent or not more than 11/2 times the actual damages sustained by the landlord, whichever is greater. If the landlord consents to the tenant's continued occupancy subsection (d) of K.S.A. 58-2545, and amendments thereto, shall govern.
(d) In any action for possession, the landlord may obtain an order of the court granting immediate possession of the
dwelling unit to the landlord by filing a motion therefor in accordance with subsection (b) of K.S.A. 60-207, and amendments thereto, and service thereof on the tenant pursuant to K.S.A. 60-205, and amendments thereto. After a hearing and presentation of evidence on the motion, and if the judge is satisfied that granting immediate possession of the dwelling unit to the landlord is in the interest of justice and will properly protect the interests of all the parties, the judge may enter or cause to be entered an order for the immediate restitution of the premises to the landlord upon the landlord giving an undertaking to the tenant in an amount and with such surety as the court may require, conditioned for the payment of damages or otherwise if judgment be entered in favor of the tenant.
(e) If a landlord provides to a tenant a document which, if signed by the landlord or tenant or both, would constitute the tenant's written notice to the landlord that the tenant intends to
vacate the premises, and if such document contains any additional terms that are not contained in the rental agreement between the landlord and tenant, then the document shall include the following statement in no less than 10-point bold face type: 'YOUR SIGNATURE ON THIS DOCUMENT MAY BIND YOU TO ADDITIONAL TERMS NOT IN YOUR ORIGINAL LEASE AGREEMENT. IF YOUR LEASE REQUIRES YOU TO GIVE WRITTEN NOTICE OF YOUR INTENT TO VACATE, YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO DECLINE TO SIGN THIS DOCUMENT AND TO PROVIDE WRITTEN NOTICE IN ANOTHER FORM.' If such statement does not appear in such document, a tenant's signature shall not bind the tenant to any additional terms that are not contained in the rental agreement.

BREAKING THE HABIT
Electronic cigarettes provide a healthier alternative to tobacco and can help smokers reduce their
ine intake
JENNA JAKOWATZ
jakowatz@kansan.com
The electronic cigarette, also known by its nickname the "e-cig," is changing the way people smoke. Except there's no smoke involved.
"I started using an e-cig as a way to quit smoking." Adel said. "I've tried other things before, but so far this is the only method that has been really effective for me."
The electronic cigarette was originally invented in the 1960s, but did not make a full appearance on the market until 2008. The number of people using the electronic cigarette has been increasing steadily over the past couple of years. The appeal of the electronic cigarette is that it does not contain the harmful chemicals that regular cigarettes include, and it emits water vapor rather than toxic smoke.
Eric Adell, a senior from Olathe, picked up his electronic cigarette three months ago in his efforts to quit smoking.
The main concern, however, is that there are very limited studies available that deduce what the exact health effects of the electronic cigarette are. Doctors and consumers alike cannot say for sure if the electronic cigarette is any safer than a regular cigarette.
In December, the FDA held a public hearing on nicotine replacement therapies, and one of the main focuses was on electronic cigarettes. Dr. Gilbert Ross from the American Council on
Science and Health spoke at the hearing in support of electronic cigarettes. Ross is certain that the electronic cigarette is safer than a regular cigarette.
Craving nicotine is the main challenge smokers face when they decide to quit. Adell says that the electronic cigarette has helped him reduce his nicotine intake significantly.
"Electronic cigarettes, of course, are not cigarettes. They're nicotine delivery devices," Ross said.
"I think e-cigs are so effective in quitting smoking because they mimic the behavior of smoking while satisfying the need for nicotine, but at the same time, you can consciously reduce the amount of nicotine that you are consuming. It's a way of outsmarting your addiction." Adell said.
"The substances that are being provided in e-cigarettes — water, glycerin or propylene glycol, and vaporized nicotine at various dosages — are quite benign and, at worst, far less harmful than the products of tobacco combustion," Ross said at the hearing.
Ross explains that electronic cigarettes should be praised, not punished, because they do not emit harmful smoke and chemicals like regular cigarettes.
Ryan Hughes, a sophomore from Redlands, Calif., also smokes electronic cigarettes, and says overall, the electronic cigarette is better for smokers.
"The e-cigs always last longer then regular cigarettes," Hughes said. "There's as much nicotine in e-cigs, so you're able to mimic a lighter, less full-bodied feeling of smoking as opposed to a regular cigarette."
Adell says they're cheaper, too.
"The kit initially cost me around $40 and came with a rechargeable battery and a small bottle of liquid nicotine." Adell said. "I spend about $10 a week on flavored nicotine liquid. You can buy cheaper stuff, but I find that it's worth it to spend a little more on a higher quality brand, and you get a better selection of flavors. Compared to smoking a pack a day, e-cigarettes are significantly cheaper."
Adell says that nicotine dependence is not something that can be easily stopped, but the electronic cigarette is making progress for eliminating his addiction.
"Most people don't really understand how powerful nicotine dependence is." Adell said. "It completely subverts any rational decision-making processes. It doesn't matter that you know it's going to give you cancer, or that it is unattractive, or that it makes you smell offensive. Psychologically, you just have to have it. Since I started using an e-cig I have dramatically decreased the amount of nicotine I use, and hope to be using only flavored liquid with zero nicotine within the next month."

This issue echoes a similar one he found himself facing as a student at the University of Central Missouri. Inspired by a friend's comment, Abarca created a student administrative office for sustainability, and by the time
"We've got to work hand in hand with the city of Lawrence, with our external neighbors like Greek life and the Greek community, to foster those relationships and really build programs that really garner everyone's attention and support."
students work to expand recycling on campus
EMMA LEGAULT
elegault@kansan.com
"It should be as easy as throwing something away."
This is the motto that Manny Abarca believes should represent the ease and importance of the University's recycling program.
After arriving at the University two months ago, Abarca, recycling operations coordinator, saw a number of flaws limiting the program's success. For example, trash cans outnumber recycling bins 20:1 on lavakh Boelevard.
Recycling at the University is a completely student-funded program, and the majority of it is student-run as well.
PAPER
During the day, two shifts of students travel around campus in the three recycling trucks to collect recycling bins from each building and transport it to the warehouse. There it's processed, meaning students touch every bottle, can and piece of paper that comes through. After sorting, the material is baled with like products and loaded on a trailer making the trip to Kansas City every couple of weeks.
"You have a unique program at KU," Abarca said. "Not a lot of institutions around the country run a recycling plant; they simply just throw it in a dumpster and someone takes it, and after that, no one really cares about it. Here we actually process all of it."
In addressing the program's concerns, Abarca plans to take advantage of opportunities to increase awareness and solve sustainability issues on campus.
"We've got a lot of progress ahead of us," Abarca said. "We have a lot of opportunity to make this the best recycling program and institution in the region and in the country. I want to go for the top."
In fact, the keystone in Abarca's office is a white board full of to-do lists, outlines of goals and needs, along with the words "pride" and "effectiveness." Currently, some bigger issues he is looking to improve are recycling within the athletics program and in the Greek community.
He also emphasized the importance of working with these communities and the city of Lawrence, who recently approved a citywide curbside recycling program to begin in October 2014.
KU Recycling recycles newspaper, aluminum cans, plastic, cardboard and paper. The materials are collected and sorted by paid University students.
he left, he had taken the four recycling bins on campus and turned them into 4,500.
One way to accomplish this at the University, Abarca said, is a rebringing of the program and an increase in infrastructure. What revenue the program does receive is only serving to maintain it, but Abarca wants to go beyond what is there already.
Student Senate recently approved a $7.70 student fee increase to be distributed to the recycling program. By redesigning the bins and increasing the number in the community and on campus, he hopes to encourage a "recycling culture."
GEORGE MULLINIX/KANSAN
"We're at an institution of higher education." Albarca said, "Why shouldn't we be the ones leading that? You are the future leaders of tomorrow. If we don't establish those habits and goals now, what's going to happen later?"
Blaine Bengtson, a junior from Salina, has worked for the KU Center for Sustainability that houses KU Recycling for more than a year, and is the director of "Recycle and Blue, KU," an organization created to enhance and expand game day recycling efforts during football season.
"If students at KU understand that they go to a university that prioritizes sustainability, it makes sense that they would learn the importance of living sustainably and apply it to the rest of their lives," Bengtson said. "I think that's why it's so important that we not only talk about sustainability, but also make sure we're actually living it out."
He said working for the program has opened his eyes to a variety of sustainability issues.
"Students can be more eco-friendly by focusing on the small things," he said. "Things like flipping off the lights when you leave a room, taking shorter showers, or throwing your plastic into a blue bin instead of a black bin are so simple, but can go so far in having a positive impact."
"If I could do one thing to change the KU approach to sustainability, it would be shifting from smaller incremental changes we currently make to making sustainability a top priority in every decision," he said.
Small changes can influence the environment, and Bengtson wants to see the University consider their effects in other areas.
He hopes increasing attention will persuade students to do the same.
Grace Scrito, a senior from Overland Park, was looking for something more exciting than watching a clock from behind a desk when she found KU Recycling.
Her passion for the environment was already there, but she was lacking in knowledge and experience. Now, as a crew leader, she oversees and manages
72
other recycling technicians in addition to collecting the recycling and other warehouse responsibilities.
"After seeing all of the waste that our campus accumulates, and knowing that what we recycle is only a fraction of what we could be taking out of the campus waste stream, I have realized that sustainability itself is an issue to which our campus unfortunately does not pay enough attention." Scrivio said.
"Everything has value, it's just how high a value you're placing on things." Abarca said. "It's just about reusing that material or understanding that resource is still a resource. Just because it's in a trashcan doesn't mean it's waste."
To minimize individual waste, Scrito said buying in bulk instead of smaller packages at the grocery store is an easy and cost-effective way to go green.
"Most people, especially college age, don't realize that many sustainable practices save them money as well as the environment," she said.
Understanding a footprint, an individual, and consequently, a campus, is key in shifting attitudes and taking action to recycle.

The Kansas Senate passed House Bill 2253 Monday, all but confirming one of the most comprehensive anti-abortion bills in the country.
The bill needs only Gov. Sam Brownback's signature – something he has pledged to provide – before it becomes law.
Included in the bill are provisions that prohibit tax exemptions, credits and deductions from aiding abortion providers and women who receive abortions. It also forbids "an employee, agent or volunteer of an abortion services provider" from speaking or providing materials regarding sexuality or sexually transmitted diseases in public schools. The bill states, "The life of each human being begins at
fertilization."
Among the groups that testified in support of the bill is Kansans for

things," Ostrowski said. "First, it retracts any tax advantages for abortion businesses or tax funding for abortions. Second, it provides an underpinning for legislative decisions in Kansas which prefer child-
abortion."
The bill addresses women's right-to-know statutes by requiring clinics to provide patients with printed materials about agencies that can assist with pregnancy and childbirth, "probable anatomical and
physiological characteristics of the unborn child at two-week gestational increments from fertilization to full term and controversial information about the "medical risks commonly associated with
each such procedure" including the risk of breast cancer. The American Cancer Society reports that no link exists between medically induced abortions and breast cancer.
Ostrowski argues that women are entitled to all available information about abortion - even if it is disputed by many researchers in the medical community.
"The Kansas Department of Health and Environment has written this, not Kansans for Life," she said. "We don't want to promote bogus science. We want families to think about the destruction of a human being."
Nicki Rose, intern for the Emily Taylor Center for Women and Gender Equity, expressed her personal reservations about the bill.
"Every time a legislature even discusses a bill like this, they are
deciding whether or not women are capable of making the right choice, the moral choice, the choice that best serves all parties involved, including the pregnancy in question," Rose said. "When they pass bills like this, legislators are telling women that we cannot be trusted to make the right choices in our lives."
"We're trying to use every tool to show that abortion is a bad thing on so many levels - morally, biologically and civically," Ostrowski said. "We want to make abortion unthinkable."
Ostrowski insists that the primary aim of Kansans for Life is to "change society more than pass a ban on abortion."

Reshad Riddle appears in Ashtabula Municipal Court yesterday in Ashtabula, Ohio. Riddle went to the Hiawatha Church of God in Christ and killed his father, 52-year-old Richard Riddle, with a single shot from a handgun Sunday afternoon. Riddle is charged with aggravated murder and two weapons counts.
Ohio man fatally shoots father during Easter church service
ASSOCIATED PRESS
ASHTUBALA, Ohio — Panicked witnesses to a fatal Easter service shooting in Ohio feared many might be killed as the victim's son approached theulpit, waving a handgun and yelling about God and Allah.
"Tragic as it is, it could have been so much worse," Rev. Steve Sargent, associate pastor of the Hlaiwatha Church of God in Christ in Ashtabula, said Monday as he pointed out where the gunman moved through the sanctuary.
Michael Wofford, 59, a worshipper who attended Sunday's service with his wife and two grandchildren, said he feared a shooting rampage after the gunman finished his spiel from the pulpit area.
"Is he going to just walk out of the church or is he going to start shooting people at random." Wofford asked in the church vestibule. "Sooner or later he's going to run out of words. It could have been much worse."
Police say Resh Riddle, 28, went to the church and killed his father, 53-year-old Richard Riddle, with a single shot from a handgun Sunday afternoon.
Riddle made rambling comments about God and said he wanted to be treated fairly. The judge agreed to appoint a public defender.
The suspect appeared Monday in Ashtabula Municipal Court with his ankles and wrists shackled.
The prosecutor asked for $1 million bail and, if he makes it, a psychiatric evaluation and 24-hour monitoring.
Ann Riddle, sister of the victim and aunt of the suspect, said later
the family knew of no possible motive.
"He seemed to be like he was deranged. I don't know if he was on something." Sargent said while arranging a group counseling session for traumatized church members.
Riddle, receiving friends at the family home, called her brother a loving and caring family member. "He was a devoted family member, he was always there for the family, He cared a lot about people," said Riddle, who declined to comment on other aspects of the case.
After shooting the victim, the gunman then walked down the side aisle of the church, decorated with lilies for Easter, and sent panicked worshippers crawling over blue padded pews, running for the doors and climbing out windows in adjacent rooms.
Associate Pastor Sean Adams told The (Ashtabula) Star Beacon newspaper that Reshad Riddle walked through the church, still holding the gun, and yelled that the killing was "the will of Allah. This is the will of God."
Some worshippers hid in a bathroom until police arrived, according audio of a 911 call made from the restroom. The female caller told a dispatcher shed seen the armed man, wearing black and red, walk across the yard quickly.
"My suspicion is that he may have been on something, some mind-altering chemical that caused him to act out like he did."
PAGE 3
"We can hear him. He's got a gun, and he's in there trying to preach," she says, pleading for police to come quickly while yelling is heard intermittently in the background. Officers arrived and apprehended the suspect within four minutes of her call.
"Witnesses at the scene said the shooter entered church and made some references to Allah, but we are not sure if that was a motive or if there was a family problem," Stell said. "There is no indication that the father and son had a bad relationship. Everyone thinks this was very surprising."
Ashtabula Police Chief Robert Stell said the younger Riddle offered no motive for the shooting.
Ashtabula County Common Pleas Court records show he was arrested and charged with two counts of felonious assault, kidnapping, abduction and tampering with evidence in 2006.
Court records show Reshad Riddle has an extensive criminal record.
Records show that in 2007, Reshad Riddle was charged with felonious assault, and in 2009 he was charged with possession of drugs, tampering with evidence and possession of cocaine.
According to police reports, one of the felonious assault charges stemmed from an incident when Reshad Riddle allegedly attempted to cut his girlfriend's throat. Capt. Joseph Cellitti said the young woman's neck had been cut with a knife and she suffered bruising on her side and chest.
Church parishioners said Reshad Riddle was a member of the church as a child, but did not attend services regularly as an adult.

More senators declare support for gay marriage
"No one would have thought twice about him being here with his family on Easter," Adams said. "His family (has) been members here for years and years."
HARRISBURG, Pa. — Democratic U.S. Sen. Bob Casey announced Monday that he favors gay marriage, the latest of several lawmakers to change positions on the issue now before the U.S. Supreme Court.
ASSOCIATED PRESS
Casey said he made the shift after reviewing the legal, public policy and civil rights questions involved and letters from Pennsylvania families.
"If two people of the same sex fall in love and want to marry, why would our government stand in the way?" Casey said. "At a time when many Americans lament a lack of commitment in our society between married men and women, why would we want less commitment and fewer strong marriage?"
In November, as Casey successfully sought a second term, he said he favored same-sex civil unions but did not take a position on same-sex marriage. He previously voted to let gays and lesbians serve openly in the military and to repeal the "don't ask, don't tell" policy.
"Elected public officials have an abiding obligation to refrain from demonizing and dividing people for partisan or political gain," Casey said. "Rather, Democrats and Republicans should come together and find areas of agreement to do what's best for the country, including lesbian and gay Americans."
Last week the U.S. Supreme Court heard oral arguments in a
pair of cases that could dramatically alter the legal landscape for gay marriage.
One of the cases involves the Defense of Marriage of Act, which prevents legally married gay couples from receiving federal benefits available to others. Casey said he now wants to repeal the law, signed by President Bill Clinton in 1996.
The executive director of Equality Pennsylvania, a political advocacy group for gays, lesbians, bisexuals and transgender people, said his members logged about 10,000 calls to Casey in recent weeks to urge him to make such an announcement.
"I hope it means for where the state is going is that people are truly starting to use the issue of marriage to understand why marriage equality is important but also in general how we treat gay citizens in Pennsylvania," executive director Ted Martin said.
Casey's announcement, Martin said, gives elected officials "the ability to look at these issues and understand you can come to a conclusion after thinking about them."
Several other Democratic senators who, like Casey, represent swing states, have recently made similar announcements.
Sen, Rob Portman, a Republican from Ohio, announced his support for gay marriage in states that choose to allow it, saying his stance began to change in 2011, when his college-age son told him he was gay.

Some politics need votes,not voices
The flood of red equality pictures on social media seemed to catch most of us off guard. The conversation crept up on us, and suddenly most "allies" seemed to have no clue what they were talking about.
I'm an armchair liberal who sits on the floor. I'm barely half a step above slacktivist and a full 10 steps below anyone alive in the '60s.
I've picked up a sign on an embarrassingly few occasions and have spent most of my time repeating the words of people who are much smarter and more involved than I'll ever be. I take every chance I get to fight the Facebook good fight and take personal offense to anyone who disagrees.
So when suddenly dozens of arguments began opening up
across my Facebook feed, ranging from the legitimacy of the gay movement to the strangely low-resolution equal sign everyone was sporting. I knew my time had come. Here was my chance to eloquently defend an issue I'd immersed myself in. This was my time to shine in front of my peers.
By Wil Kenney
wkenney@kansan.com
I ate concrete. I floped and then some. Everything I typed was torn apart and dumped in the river with cinder blocks chained around its ankles. Despite cowering behind the shield of my computer screen, I was hurt.
The thing is there are very few in our generation who are against gay marriage in the first place, much less in my friend list. When hackles are raised and there's no one to use as a scapegoat, whole groups of overzealous college
liberals turn on one another. A vitriolic comment thread gets lost in the details of Bible verses no one has actually read and misused phrases like "discourse" and "Oueer oppression."
After failing so hard in what I considered home territory, I realized something: Even if I've read every LGBTQ book and article, seen every art-house film and have 10,000 gay best friends there's nothing that I can legitimately contribute to a conversation that is way beyond me. The
number of bumper stickers I've managed to scrape together and the deluge of social media trends I've tagged along with don't change the fact that I was raised in a predominately white, heteronormative society.
A perspective formed by experience is infinitely more valuable than one formed by second-hand accounts. That's why videos of George Takei discussing LGBTQ politics have millions of views and my 200-word comment on someone's Facebook status has, - at best - two likes.
In a weird way, the arguments from the anti-gay crowd on Facebook are more legitimate than mine. Those are personally formed and crafted while mine are poorly paraphrased versions of a Rachel Maddow interview from 2010. I'm not even a drop in the ocean. I'm a thimble full
Is it sad that it took me this long to realize I'm an idiot? I'll chalk it up to youthful ignorance
of water scooped out and gently lowered right back in.
UNIVERSITY
So I clicked up a new profile picture and cut off all the arguments I had started so hastily. If I am going to be an ally of the LGBTQ community, then it will be with my vote and a very sparingly used, positive voice. No one logs onto Facebook ready to have his or her mind changed, so why bother with the frustration and tension? From now on I'll sit down, shut up and learn from the people who actually know what they're talking about.

Search for advisers who help more than removing holds
By now, maybe you're thinking about your next semester's class schedule. You'll have to go through the University's advising system to enroll. It works, but it's hardly advising and hardly a system.
I wish I could take myself back to 2010 and give some advice to the younger me about KU advising. Maybe it's worth trying to mimic Blake Griffin, taking a Kia Optima back in time to tell my younger self just a few words.
your enrollment adviser is a great person, but can't really tell you how to get an edge in class or how to get ahead. Also, advising is incredibly hands off, so don't expect anyone to guide you in your education."
By Chris Ouyang couyang@kansan.com
"Hands off" is really a aphemism for "Come back in six months". This is how the current advising system works: I schedule an appointment. My adviser tells me what courses to take, though I've checked my Degree Progress Report (DPR) and know which courses I need. He suggests applying for internships, something I did. Sweet - see you in six months.
Going in for advising feels like going to the dentist. I call in my appointment. The dentist tells me to floss more, which I do. The dentist tells me to invest in an electronic toothbrush, and I tell him that I have a Sonicare toothbrush and use Sensodyne for my sensitive teeth. Great - see you in six months.
The advising system at the University pushes students to be autonomous. The DPR is self-explanatory, albeit error-prone. There are curriculum guides, enrollment guides, sample four-year plans and course catalogs available online. The process is so "hands off" sink or swim and
figure it out on your own that most students learn how to pick our classes without talking to any adviser. Over time, going to an adviser becomes the final step, a formality at most. It becomes unimportant.
We essentially advise ourselves. There is value in forcing students to advise themselves on what classes they should take, what direction they should head to be most successful. However, I don't think that the ineffectiveness of the advising system was carefully, meticulously crafted so that I could reach a more independent self. I tell my adviser my schedule. He checks a box. My hold is gone. I enroll. See you in six months. No one cares. Advising slowly becomes this transaction that takes place every few months.
Think about what we miss out on. I'm not saying independence isn't great, but we miss out on potentially great relationships and the chance at greater achievement. My adviser struggled to remember my name for the first two years. He doesn't look at my goals and say, "This is a great way to get there." We never talk about my goals anyways; we just go through the motions of getting my holds removed, and then I go enroll in whatever I want. It makes me, "Okay, whatever man, I will go figure it out on my own." Maybe you've felt this way about advising, classes and just the direction that education at the University tends toward. The entire college experience could become a transaction, just like advising. I could turn in my homework but never stay for class. I could live by myself off campus. I take a test, I get a grade. I pay for credit hours, and I get a degree. I could graduate unknown to any of my peers. I could come to the University and better myself, but leave the University without better it.
Don't let this happen to you. Even if classes are these emotionless transactions like buying milk at Dillon's, don't let that derail your college experience. You have to make something out of nothing.
Maybe your adviser isn't in your corner, helping you find every edge you need to succeed. If not, then befriend people who will. Seek out advisers who do more than remove your enrollment holds. There's no way we can take every adviser, underwhelming to outstanding, and force the thoughts "Be an overachiever. Change the lives of these kids. Give them some direction. Help them." That's a lofty, unreasonable expectation. However, no one is stopping you from meeting the people that could very well launch your career path, become your coworker or console in hard times. Don't let your college experience be another transaction you make every day.

Character inspires by embracing faults
O h, Hannah Horvath. What is it that makes this brutally honest. 13
pounds overweight, often unemployed 20-something so endearing? I think it's something about the fact that she is incredibly self-conscious and yet completely disreards it.
Though I have mad love for HBO's "Girls," and Allison Williams' and Jemima Kirke's characters as well, I have to warn you, this column focuses on my one and only Hannah Horvath (portrayed by Lena Dunam). The following are five compelling reasons to love our Hannah.
1. She is so delightfully awkward. Everyone can relate to that hand-on-head feeling after greeting a cute boy with, "What's shaken!?" or simply, "Hiiiii...". Hannah doesn't just recognize this feeling, she embraces it. And she does it all while wearing a see-through mesh tank top.
That episode when she shacks up with hot married guy Patrick Wilson for two full days? Her oversharing with him is so cringe-worthy, yet so bold you have to love it. It almost makes you wish we lived in a world where it was socially acceptable to say whatever is on your mind - without committing social suicide, of course.
2. She doesn't make apologies for who she is. She says and feels what she wants, when she wants and to whom she wants. Hannah isn't afraid to say, "I'm scared," but also isn't afraid to say, "I may be the voice of my generation." She is 100 percent authentic, and if that means sitting pantsless eating Cool Whip, so be it. Keeping up appearances is pretty low on Hannah's list of priorities, and I respect her immensely for that.
3. She both loves and loathes her body, I've definitely seen Lena Dunham's boobs more than any other human's, on TV or in real life. The nudity - OK, mostly Hannah's nudity – in "Girls" is disconcerting at first, but something about how comfortable Hannah is in her own skin makes viewers more comfortable also.
It is my theory that Hannah's confidence – even if misguided – gives viewers permission to be
By Lindsey Mayfield lmayfield@kansan.com
confident in their flawed selves as well. There's something so liberating about a woman who admits that she is overweight, has a terrible haircut and is a questionable dresser, but also that she is awesome and worthy of love.
4. She doesn't hide her emotions. I sometimes hate the "it's all good, bro" culture we live in today. You know, the one where if you're not super chill about everything in life, you basically damaged. I admit that the go-with-the-flow lifestyle can be very healthy and allows us to take things in stride, but it also doesn't allow us to truly feel. Hannah is on an emotional roller coaster. In a single episode she goes through several mood swings and has at least one major breakdown. Some would say she is unstable, but in reality, she just refuses to mask the emotions we all feel, but struggle to keep inside.
One of the most lovable things about Hannah is that she is flawed. Like, really flawed. But rather than struggle to hide those flaws under the ruse of a "balanced" lifestyle, she plays them up. Her dysfunction is what makes her character so unique, but also so relatable. Because, on some level, we have all experienced the type of personal crisis Hannah does when she gets writer's block or has an OCD relapse. Watching her go through it – sometimes successfully, sometimes not – gives us license to take our own crises at our own pace. And to not beat ourselves up when they happen in the first place.
5. She is the brainchild of Lena Dunham. The end.

excess HOLLYWOOD review
--invading force from Pyongyang. The newly released "Olympus Has Fallen" depicts the seizure of the White House by a terrorist obsessed with reunifying the Korean Peninsula. Even the new "G.I. Joe: Retaliation" contains a scene where the faux U.S. president (Jonathan Pryce) suggests nuking North Korea 15 times, "just to be sure."
ASSOCIATED PRESS
Trey Parker and Matt Stone's 2004 political satire "Team America: World Police" portrayed the late Kim Jong-il as a megaloma-
niac manionette.
North Korea becomes the new bad guy in film industry
What does North Korean dictator Kim Jong-un have in common with Stanley Kubrick? In spite of their rather drastic ideological differences, both men have found ways to make us laugh in the face of nuclear war.
Kubrick, the director of "The Shining" and "Full Metal Jacket", furiously lampooned Cold War paranoia in his 1964 black comedy "Dr. Strangelove," in which the star-spangled psychopath General Jack D. Ripper (Sterling Hayden) unleashed an atomic Armageddon in order to prevent the Commies from polluting his "precious bodily fluids."
Kim, who's beginning to resemble a discontinued Cabbage Patch Kid, recently released his own cinematic opus: a bizarre propaganda video where poorly rendered U.S. cities are obliterated by North Korean rockets while an instrumental version of Michael Jackson's "We Are the World" drones ominously in the background. Despite the threatening imagery, the most horrifying thing about the video is its production value.
Whether it's discovering ancient unicorn lairs or trash-talking the United States by comparing it to "a boiled pumpkin", much about North Korea's current regime is ripe for parody. Although its increasingly bellicose rhetoric and flagrant human rights violations can't be ignored, the Hermit Kingdom has made itself an admittedly easy target for all manner of pop satirists, including many Hollywood filmmakers.
Within the last decade, North Korea has slowly replaced Russia as the default bad-guy nation in American blockbusters. Last year brought us the abysmal remake of "Red Dawn," which featured an improbably attractive group of young rednecks mounting a full-blown insurgency against an
By Landon McDonald
Imcdonald@kansan.com
Is it possible that our volatile relations with Pyongyang could stem, at least partially, from our tendency to intimidate and caricature them in our media? North Korea's citizenry may be forbidden to indulge in Western entertainment, but that doesn't mean the higher-ups haven't been paying attention. After all, the Supreme Leader's deceased father Kim Jongil was an avowed cinephile who proudly claimed to own at least 20,000 film reels, videocassettes and DVDs, including every "Friday the 13th" and "Rambo" installment. The diminutive demagogue even authored a textbook, titled "On the Art of the Cinema", which is still available for purchase on Amazon.
Yet the elder Kim's love of film went far beyond appreciation. In 1978, he arranged for the kidnapping of popular South Korean director Shin Sang-ok and his starlet wife Choi Eun-he and commissioned them to kick-start the North Korean movie industry with a series of anti-capitalist propaganda films, including a remake of "Godzilla" called "Pulgasari." Their ordeal, which practically cries out for a big screen dramatization of its
own, went on for seven years before culminating in a daring escape to the U.S. Embassy in Vienna during a supervised trip there in 1986.
The late Dear Leader was also reportedly an ardent fan of the James Bond series until the release of 2002's "Die Another Day," whose plot involved 007 (Pierce Brosnan) being captured by the North Koreans and tortured for months in a scorpion-infested prison camp. Apparently Kim's biggest grieve not with Halle Berry's acting or even the weapons-grade lameness of an invisible Aston Martin, but rather with the identity of the movie's villain: the criminally insane son of a North Korean general who underwent "racial reassignment surgery" in order to impersonate a dashing British playboy.
Out of all the movies that satirize the North Korean government, Trey Parker and Matt Stone's R-rated puppet show "Team America: World Police" is without a doubt the most enduring and incessantly quotable. It's also a showcase for the duo's trademark propensity for equal opportunity satire, spoofing everything from the futility of the War on Terror to the mind-numbing action cinema of Michael Bay. The film's portrayal of Kim as a lonesome, warbling megalomaniac became so popular that "Team America" began trending on Twitter just hours after the announcement of the real leader's death in late 2011.
A film version of a fanatical film lover outliving the fanatic himself? There's definitely some irony there. And maybe a slim ray of hope for humanity's progress beyond a future predicated on the assurance of mutual destruction.

Despite how the season ended, there's still hope
Close your eyes and take a deep breath. Hold it for a few seconds. Now, exhale slowly and open
Now, exnale slowly and open your eyes again. Everything will be OK. As our basketball team now heads into the offseason, maybe a little sooner than expected, there are plenty of reasons why everyone should be just as excited for next season as they were for this one.
Although the team is losing four of its starters because of graduation, nothing has been said about redshirt freshman guard Ben McLemore's future. Despite many people believing that he will enter this year's NBA draft, he did have a relatively poor postseason, only averaging 12 points per game and showed signs of not appearing in the big moments. This could mean that his draft stock can go down, resulting in him deciding to stay another year. Another year of Ben McLemore? I have absolutely no problem with that.
By Ryan Levine
levine@kansan.com
As for the bench, people tend to undervalue them. Sophomore guard
Naadir Tharpe and freshman forward Perry Ellis are going to be exceptional players, as their careers have tremendous upsides. Unlike Elijah Johnson, Tharpe is a natural point guard, so running the offense will not be an issue for him. Ellis is a great post player, who took drastic steps of improvement this postseason, showing off to everyone the offensive skill set that he has. He is going to be an important piece to any kind of success that Kansas has in the future.
The only thing holding redshirt freshman forward JamiT. Traylor back from
being a physical beast that opposing teams won't want to deal with is the fact that he has not had as much experience as everyone else. Sometimes it is forgotten he started playing basketball just three years ago. He is an extremely gifted and physical athlete who I think has Thomas Robinson potential. He also has shoulders that remind me of Dwight Howard, so that in itself tells me how good he could be.
Another crucial aspect returning to next year's squad is coach Bill Self. If his nine straight Big 12 championships do not say anything about rebuilding, I do not know what does. Year after year, he loses players either because of the draft, players transferring or graduation and he always finds a way to bring back a solid group of guys that want to compete for a national championship. How does he do it? Who cares, because it works. So Coach, whatever it is you do to make our jayhawks great every season, keep doing it.
KU
Despite the fact that this season may not have been what the Jayhawk Nation expected, there is an upside for next year that everyone should be anxiously waiting for. Oh, and I almost forgot. Redshirt forward Landon Lucas will be wearing a uniform next year, as opposed to the stylish outfits he wore on the bench this season.

Points isn't worried about Texas Open
HUMBLE, Texas — The Masters was always on D.A. Points' mind, even with the start of his year going nowhere.
He took care of that with one clutch puff.
Points sank a 13-footer to save
par on the 72nd hole Sunday, winning the rain-delayed Houston Open by one stroke over Henrik Stenson and Billy Horschel.
Points' only other victory came with actor Burt Murray at his side at Pebble Beach in 2011. This one earned him an invitation to the Masters in two weeks and a two-year exemption, unexpected
bonuses after missing seven cuts in his first nine starts this year.
"I never doubt that I can do it," Points said. "I certainly get down and frustrated when I make two of nine cuts. That's not making you feel real great about yourself."
No matter how he played in Houston, he was planning to play in next week's
Texas Open, too. Now, at least he won't have to worry about winning there.
Desperate to change his luck before Houston, he brought along an old potter who once borrowed from his mother that's
"I never thought that I wasn't going to make it (to Augusta)." Points said. "I just thought this is an opportunity, just like next week."
been sitting in his garage since about 2005. He hardly missed with it in an opening 64 and then sank the biggest putt of his career on Sunday.
But it was more than just the putter that worked this week. Fellow touring pro Chris Stroud set up a putting lesson for Points on Wednesday morning with Brian White, the golf coach at nearby
Lamar, where Stroud played. White rescheduled a flight to meet with Points and got him to change his point of impact.
"The things he was saying, at first, I wasn't in love with," Points said. "But I knew that what he was saying wasn't wrong."

NCAA
Wichita State surprises many on road to Final Four
PAGE 7
ASSOCIATED PRESS
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — When the NCAA tournament field was announced a couple weeks ago, Louisville coach Rick Pitino wasn't a whole lot different from millions of other college basketball fans.
He started poring over the bracket for potential upsets.
His eyes quickly settled on Wichita State.
"I was talking with my son," Pitino said Monday, "and I said I thought Wichita State had a great chance of being a surprise team to the Final Four. He asked me, 'Which teams would you think?' I said VCU and Wichita State. ... I was very impressed with them."
Now, Pitino will have to figure out a way to beat them.
His top-seeded Cardinals (33-5) ran roughshod through the Midwest Region, and now roll into Atlanta as the heavy favorite to win their first national championship since 1986.
But first, Russ Smith and the rest of the Cardinals will have to get by a gutsy, gritty and grossly underestimated Wichita State team Saturday night that blitzed through Pittsburgh, knocked off another No.1 seed in Gonzaga, and ousted second-seeded Ohio State to reach the Final Four.
"Each game," Pitino said, "they looked better and better."
Pitino said there are some similarities between the Shockers (30-8) and the Providence team that he led to the Final Four in 1987, long before he won national titles at Kentucky, forayed into the NBA and landed back on the college basketball map at Louisville.
The Friars were the No. 6 seed that year, and beat second-seeded Alabama and top-seeded George-town on their way to the Final Four, where they lost to Syracuse — which just so happens to be playing Michigan in the other
match-up on Saturday night at the Georgia Dome.
"I guess you would consider both Cinderella teams, but Wichita State has much more talent than we had at Providence," Pitino said of a Friars team that featured a young Billy Donovan.
"He was sort of carrying us on his back, amazing young player," Pitino said. "I think Wichita State is a much better defensive team. He was a better guy making everybody better. But like some teams, we just caught offensive fire at the right time."
"We're better all year long when we're the underdog, when nothing is expected."
GREGG MARSHALL
Wichita State coach
In much the same way, everything has come together at the right time for Wichita State.
The Shockers opened the season 19-2, climbed to No.15 in the AP poll and ran their home-court winning streak to 19 games, beating eventual Missouri Valley Conference champion Creighton in a high-profile meeting at Koch Arena, the Shockers' venerable on-campus home.
Then came a disastrous loss to Indiana State, and the start of a three-game skid that included a vexing road loss to Southern Illinois, which finished 6-12 in the Valley this season.
It was similar to a three-game losing streak that Louisville had in January.
“it's interesting. I pointed to Louisville, I pointed to Kansas, great teams with great coaches that also suffered that type of blip, if you will, in their run to a marvelous season,” Wichita State coach
Gregg Marshall said on a conference call with reporters.
Marshall admitted thinking that the season was lost after losing to the Salukis.
The Final Four couldn't have been further from his mind.
"I'm thinking, 'Oh boy, we may have just shot our chances to get in the NCAA tournament right in the foot, we might just have blown it.' I am thinking that to myself, obviously, not relaying that to the team," he said. "Thank goodness our non-conference run where we only lost one game and beat some very good teams helped us, enabled us, to get into the tournament."
The signs were there, though, even before the start of the madness, that Wichita State was a dangerous team. Their only losses the rest of the way came against Evansville, which has won 21 games this season, and Creighton, which ousted them in the Valley tournament title game.
"We're better all year long when we're the underdog, when nothing is expected," Marshall said. "We got to 9-0 and lost. We got to 15-1, and then we lose. This team has done better when nothing is expected, when they're the underdogs, which we'll clearly be on Saturday."
The Shockers, who will travel to Atlanta on Wednesday, are the toast of the town this week, but keep insisting to anybody who will listen that merely making the Final Four isn't enough.
They went want to win the school's first national championship.
"Cinderella found one glass slipper. We won four games. I don't think she found four glass slippers," Marshall said. "Cinderella usually wins a game or two, but much like Butler a couple seasons ago, when you get to this point, you're good enough to win it all."

Royals lose season opener, have high hopes for playoffs
ASSOCIATED PRESS
CHICAGO — Chris Sale outpitched James Shields, Tyler Flowers homered and the Chicago White Sox beat the Kansas City Royals 1-0 in the season opener on Monday.
A dominant performance by Sale and Flowers' drive leading off the fifth against Shields were just enough to beat a team that's trying to make a big jump after finishing with a losing record 17 of the past 18 seasons. It also gave the White Sox a rare win over the Royals, who took 12 of 18 from them a year ago.
The White Sox believe they're in position to make a run at the AL Central title even though they made no splash additions while the rest of the division loaded up. They're off to a good start after a late fade left them three games behind Detroit a year ago.
Sale (1-0) showed the form that made him a 17-game winner and
Along with the addition of Ervin Santana from the Los Angeles Angels and the re-signing of Jeremy
an All-Star in his first season as a starter. On a chilly day when the game-time temperature was 44, he allowed just seven hits and struck out seven while walking one, and he left to a standing ovation after Alcides Escobar's single with two outs in the eighth.
Nate Jones came in and, after Escobar stole second, threw a wild pitch while walking Billy Butler to put runners on first and third. Matt Thornton then struck out Mike Moustakas on three pitches to end the threat, and Addison Reed worked the ninth for the save.
Shields (0-1) was a tough-luck loser even though he gave the Royals exactly what they envisioned when they acquired him from Tampa Bay. The former AllStar lasted six innings, allowing just one run and eight hits while striking out six without a walk.
Shields got out of a tough spot in the second when he struck out Flowers and Gordon Beckham after back-to-back singles by Dayan Viciedo and Alexei Ramirez. Sale dodged a bases-loaded jam in the third when he struck out Butler and retired Moustakas on a pop fly.
Guthrie after he dazzled in a short stint with Kansas City last season, the Royals believe they have the arms to challenge reigning division champion Detroit and make the playoffs for the first time since the 1985 championship season.
Chicago finally broke through when Flowers drove a 2-2 pitch out to left-center leading off the fifth. It was his first homer since he went deep against Kansas City last Sept. 8, and it was a promising sight for the organization. After all, one reason the White Sox let A.J. Pierzynski sign with Texas was they believed Flowers was ready to become the everyday catcher.

COMMENTARY There's something about opening day
By Trevor Graff
tgraff@kansan.com
For many, the return of baseball simply means the return of spring weather and the end of basketball season. For those bitten by the virus that is devout baseball fanhood, opening day is a totally different story.
Fitted ball caps from franchises around the major league abound on campus. There is, of course, a solid share of Royals hats — some in powder blue, a few in black. The Cardinal is prevalent, but if enough attention is dealt to the matter, the entire league could easily be found.
Thanks to MLB.tv, one could watch young National's outfieldier Bryce Harper start the day with a multi-homer performance or the Red Sox demolition of the bloated Yankees, all while struggling to engage in class.
Opening day marks another of the annual transition periods in sports fans' calendars. Many basketball fans, trying to atone for the loss of their favorite college team, look for solace on the diamond. Some more discerning fans have counted down the days since the Giants 4-3 game four win in last year's fall classic.

KELSEY WEAVER/KANSAN
The Jayhawks snapped a three-game slump in the best way possible last weekend by handing the thirteenth-ranked, conference-leading Oklahoma Sooners their first loss in 12 play.
Kansas won 10-8 on the shoulders of a 2-for-5 hitting performance of senior first baseman Alex DeLeon and 4 1/3 scoreless innings thrown by junior reliever Jordan Piche' and sophomore closer Robert Kahana.
"The bullpen has been really strong, it's been key to the back end of the game," Piche' said. "Kahana came in and threw great and had a solid couple of innings, I came in and shut it down. We're a good combo and so far it's been really good."
glund Ballpark. The Jays are batting, .304 as a team with four men hitting above, .300 on the season.
Sophomore infielder Jake Peter leads the Jays offensively with a .424 average, 36 hits and 19 RBIs in 20 games played this season. The second Jay batting above .400, freshman infielder Reagan Fowler, is batting .403 on the year with 29 hits and 13 RBIs.
The Sooners are one of the toughest offensive teams in the Big 12, batting .293 as a team with 194 runs on 174RBIs. Jayhawk pitchers experienced this first hand in Norman, Okla., over the weekend.
"They were really good hitters," Piche' said. "If you throw a mistake pitch, they could really tag you for that. You have to pitch a bit cautious, really hit your spots and pound the zone as much as you can to hopefully punch a guu out."
The Jayhawks face similar hitting in today's game against the (14-6) Creighton Jays at Ho
The Jayhawks pitching staff has remained loose through the stretch of adept offensive line-ups.
"We've struggled a bit with Creighton in the past," Piche' said. "But I think with the way we're playing and with the win we pulled off Sunday, we'll have some good momentum looking forward."
Kansas baserunning has created momentum for the Jayhawks this season. The Jayhawks have stolen 56 bases entering their game against Creighton. This season's offensive mentality has placed a continued focus on getting on base playing station-to-station baseball.
Sophomore outfielder Dakota Smith embodied this mentality, collecting five hits in the weekend series against Oklahoma.
"Nothing really changes at the plate," Smith said. "We're just trying to be aggressive like normal. I got a few fastballs this weekend and put some good swings on them."
The Jayhawks will face tough pitching against Creighton. Creighton's staff is combined for a 3.84 ERA with 100 team strikeouts.
The Jays' staff includes their leader on the mound, senior right-handed pitcher Tommy Strunc. The right-hander is 4-0 on the year with a 3.55 ERA with 31 strikeouts and a .193 average against.
The Jayhawks look to maintain their loose style of play regardless of which team occupies the opposing dugout.
"We've been pretty loose anyway," Smith said "We've been playing good baseball. It just kind of proves to ourselves that we can win the games we need to against big teams and builds our confidence."
Kansas is continuing to fight back from the injury bug with junior outfielder Tucker Tharp
and senior first baseman Alex DeLeon returning to the lineup for full time duties after continued battles with hamstring issues.
First pitch for tonight's game is set for 6 p.m. with senior pitcher Tanner Poppe (1-1, 4-8) ERA, 8 BB, 16 K) facing the Jays' freshman pitcher Austin Groth (0-0, 18.00 ERA, 3 BB, 2 K).

HITTING
Senior first baseman Alex DeLeon was the hero on Saturday when he came away with two big hits to help the Jayhawks re-take the lead in an offensive shootout against the Sooners. Kansas wants Saturday's offensive output to carry over to Tuesday's game against Creighton, which is the first of five games up until Sunday.
PITCHING
Senior Tanner Poppe missed two starts due to a back injury last month but has been able to practice more with the team recently. In the four games he's played in this year, he's earned a 1-1 record and has an earned run average of 4.86 so far. He pitched in 16 and two-thirds innings and hopes to give the Jayhawks a lot of innings today. In the bullpen, pitching coach Ryan Graves can go to sophomore Robert Kahana and junior closer Jordan Piche'. Pichte' has pitched in 24 innings this season and has an ERA of 0.75 and three saves on the year.
16 - Kevin Lamb, So
FIELDING
Kansas ran into a miadir of hitches this past weekend against Oklahoma, who managed to produce three multi-run innings in the first game of the series. The Jayhawks found a way to overcome those mishaps and kept the Sooners offense quiet the rest of the series. The outfield has played exceptionally well for most of the season, giving Poppe reasons to feel confident taking the mound against Creighton.
(4)

HITTING
The Jays bring an impressive lineup to the plate, boasting four players with higher than .300 batting averages this season. The team combines for a .304 average with 130 runs on 114 RBIs. Sophomore infielder Jake Peter leads the team with a .424 average, 36 hits and 19 RBIs. The Jays get on base early and often with a .411 team on-base percentage. The Jayhawk pitching staff has its work cut out for them against Creighton.
PITCHING
The Jays' projected starter, freshman right handed pitcher Austin Groth, brings youth and inexperience to the mound alongside his 18.00 ERA, three walks and two strikeouts. Groth, a native Nebraska was selected three-times to the All-Nebraska first team. He was 6-1 with an 0.93 ERA his senior season in high school. The Jays bring a solid staff to town. One with plenty of ability to stop the bleeding in the bullpen.
FIELDING
Creighton's .976 fielding percentage and 19 errors on the season are the mark of a fundamental squad. The Jays have given Kansas trouble in the past with that fundamental style and should prove adept in the field in tonight's matchup.

Geography students launch mapping balloon
JENNA JAKOWAT7
ijakowatz@kansan.com
Any day now, a group of students will send a balloon 100,000 feet into the air.
The students enrolled in Geography 726, a graduate-level class revolving around remote sensing, have spent the semester designing and building a balloon they named the PHOG-NS.
The PHOG-NS will ascend into the air, pop at 100,000 feet, and then deploy a parachute carrying sensors, a camera, transmitters and a GPS back to the ground.
"We've had no instructions on this project. It's all student-driven," said Bryan Long, a graduate student who is working on the project.
The parachute will carry a 7-pound Styrofoam-insulated cylinder that will transmit data from the air back to the team stationed in Lawrence.
"Our system is equipped to take photographs, collect barometric pressure, temperature, GPS locations which include latitude, longitude, and altitude, and we have a color infrared camera." Long said.
On March 28, the team launched the balloon and parachute in a tethered test. The run-through was designed to give the team an idea of how the real launch will go. The team collected small amounts of data that they can examine before the official launch.
"We should have, theoretically, at 100,000 feet a ground-spatial resolution of about 10 or 11 meters," Steven Foga, a first-year graduate student in the geography department, said. "The camera will be capturing images at three-second intervals. We have an accelerometer, which will help us adjust for whenever the sensor is sideways. The idea is to be looking straight down so you can make ground
measurements and estimations of whatever you want to study"
Long says software will assist the group in rectifying images so that photographs taken from the air will come out flat, like in Google Earth.
The team will be able to track the parachute as it makes its way back to Earth by using its internal GPS.
Once wind pattern projections are favorable, the group will launch the balloon from Clinton Lake. It is expected to return back to the ground in the Kansas City area. By using a radio downlink, the group will be able to look at data as it is collected. The infrared monitors will capture images of vegetation health. Ideally, the images collected could help farmers improve their crop yield by seeing where in their fields their crop is struggling.

Kansas athletes' GPA ranked among top colleges

As primetime television networks prepare to broadcast the NCAA Final Four, teams practice drills, blocks and passes. However, the Jayhawks' successes extend well past the defeat at Cowboy Stadium last weekend. While fans' lucky T-shirts and thunderous chanting cheer on athletics, student athletes balance their time between sports and tests, assignments and readings.
Inside Higher Ed, an online news publication, squares off university education programs. After the NCAA releases the second brackets, teams face off not on the court but in the classroom. The annual academic bracket [http://www.insidehighered.com/sites/default/server_files/files/IHE2013men%27sbracket(1).]
JPG] compares teams' Academic Progress Rates, a scale the NCAA uses to monitor eligibility. This year, the Kansas men's basketball team placed second, with a perfect APR of 1.000.
"That shows you how much emphasis we put on the academic side of the student-athlete ratio," said Jim Marchiony, Associate Athletics Director of Communications/Media Relations.
In 2012, student athletes have a four-year graduation rate of 85 percent, which is higher than the University-wide average of 37 percent. Marchiony believes that this is partially due to University support and largely due to athletes' natural competitiveness and the University's policy of recruiting student athletes who are motivated to succeed behind a desk as well as in a work out.
"We all push each other," said
Midyett, a senior from Olathe studying science science, was recruited for the women's rowing team out of high school. The NCAA Division I varsity rowing team is scholarship-only, meaning that each of the 60 rowers receives an athletic scholarship ranked by seniority that includes athletic gear, books, tuition or housing. Midyett gets as much work done as possible between classes, as every day is sandwiched by a 6-8 a.m. and a 5-7 p.m. practice.
Ashlyn Midyett. "It's a competitive nature to see who can do the best during practice, during competitions and also in the classroom."
"It takes some getting used to," Midyet said. "As a freshman I was overwhelmed because I didn't know what to expect for the load of college courses and I had no idea how to balance it. Now, as a senior, it's easy because time management
The NCAA requires athletes to enroll in at least 12 credit hours and maintain a minimum grade point average of 2.0. On top of the 20 hours a week in the weight room or on the water at the boathouse, Midyett spends eight hours a week in optional night tutoring for her biochemistry and physics classes.
"In general, expectations are very clear that every student is supposed to keep up with coursework regardless of what's going on outside of the classroom," said Associate Athletics Director Paul Buskirk.
has become second nature to me."
The Athletics Department focuses on getting the students in close contact with instructors and helping them balance athletics with academics. Letters are sent through student athletes to instructors that include potential conflicts at the
"I've always had really flexible professors who support athletes," said Leawood senior Devin Wiegers. "They respond in a timely manner and help you organize when to take your test, if you can turn stuff in early or if you can turn it in afterwards."
Wiegers is earning her masters in business who runs 55 to 60 miles a week in training for the cross country and track and field teams.
When competing at away tour naments, an academic counsellor and even occasionally tutors travel with each team to put together study hours between meetings, practices and games. Per instructor convenience, student athletes take conflicting exams before or after away games or have an academic member of the athletics staff or of the destination university's staff serve as a proctor so the athlete can
"They can't postpone work when they're on the road." Buskirk said. "They're writing papers, they're preparing for exams. They can't put the coursework aside or these few weeks in March will be absolutely brutal when they get back."
The University, Buskirk said, pushes students to prioritize both academics and athletics, even if only one is televised.

"The most important thing to succeed in coursework has no magic to it," Buskirk said. "You've got to be in class, you have to be in close communication with your instructors and you have to work really hard. And those are the expectations that we have for our students."

Gluten-free options more prevalent on campus
MARSHALL SCHMIDT
mschmidt@kansan.com
Gluten-free dieting is more than just the latest weight loss fad to Emma McNay, a sophomore from Pratt. Rather, it's a way to maintain her health.
After studying abroad in Italy last summer, McNay's diet of gluten-laden pasta, bread and pizza triggered an allergy to wheat products. Since then, McNay has eaten gluten free in order to avoid wheat foods. Gluten is a protein complex found in wheat flour, according to Baker's Digest.
Janna Traver, executive chef for the University, estimated 25 out of the 3,000 student residents request to eat gluten free — a number that has grown throughout the years. In the past two years, Traver said
"I am healthier gluten free because I'm more conscientious of what I'm eating," McNay said. "I just feel better."
her staff has made an effort to make more gluten-free food available at every on-campus dining venue. Mrs.E's renovations will include a Kyou Zone, which will be designated for specialized diet needs. Travers said.
"As we're learning more, we're able to provide more options," Travers said.
Celiac disease, the inability to digest gluten products, is the most common medical reason to go gluten free, said Jill Hamilton- Reeves, professor of
with celiac disease during her junior year of high school. She runs long distance for the track and field team and cooks most of her own food to maintain proper nutrition and to control her diet. While Shaffer said the taste of gluten-free

foods is comparable to normal foods, there are still some exceptions.
"The gluten free desserts just don't taste the same," Schaffer said. "You have to plan out your meals unlike a normal diet, where you can get food at the drop of a hat."
Even in just the past few years since going gluten free, Schaffer
has noticed the availability and quality of gluten-free foods has increased. With Wal-Mart and Hy-vee carrying gluten-free products, this greater availability would seem to positively correlate with a general trend in gluten intolerance.
"The prevalence of celiac disease is increasing, but we don't know why," Hamilton-Reeves said. "It's common in stressed individuals, especially college students."
More common in caucasians, Hamilton-Reeves said a genetic predisposition coupled with a stressful life event is how the disease is triggered. As for those who do not have a medical reason to go gluten free, Hamilton-Reeves said such a diet is unnecessary as it's often lower in fiber.
"Most people who go gluten free increase their fat intake," Hamilton-Reeves said. "People who follow a gluten-free diet often gain weight, but you don't have to."
Going gluten free can result in consuming other unhealthy foods instead to compensate for the lack of tastiness in many gluten-free foods, Hamilton-Reeves said.
But Adam Smith, a sophomore from Leawood, has lost nearly 15 pounds since switching to a gluten-free diet last May, and he said he feels more energetic.
"I think it's healthier," Smith said.
"I will bring to bet a good portion of the individuals who eat gluten free do not suffer from celiac disease," said Stutzl. "A fad is going gluten free to lose weight."
Many students who, like Smith, do not have celiac disease, take advantage of the gluten-free options offered on campus, said Alecia Stultz, Assistant Director of Residential Dining at the University.

New abortion clinic now serving in slain doctor's former building
ASSOCIATED PRESS
WICHITA — A new women's clinic has begun taking appointments and is expected to open within days in the building of abortion provider George Tiller nearly four years after he was killed.
The South Wind Women's Center will offer comprehensive women's health care services, including abortions up to 14 weeks.
The new clinic is owned by Trust Women Foundation, a nonprofit organization founded in 2010 by Julie Burkhart, who worked with Tiller for seven years. The foundation bought the property from Tiller's wife in August. Burkhart said it has cost about $700,000 to purchase the clinic and get it up and running.
Burkham said the clinic will open when last-minute details are worked out sometime this week. Three doctors will work on a rotating basis at the clinic.
Tiller was gunned down in 2009 at his church in Wichita by anti-abortion activist Scott Roeder, who is serving a life sentence for the physician's murder.
The Kansas City Star reports abortion opponents have vowed to force the clinic to close.
Abortion opponents have sporadically protested at the clinic and at Burkhart's home even before its opening. Burkhar will be in Sedgwick County District Court on April 11 seeking a permanent protection from stalking order against Wichita pastor
Burkhart says the clinic will heighten security for patients' safety.
Mark Holick.
Holick did not immediately return a phone message seeking comment.
A move by Kansans for Life failed to get the city to rezone the building so as to block its opening.
Tiller was one of the few remaining late-term abortion providers in the nation when he was gunned down in church and his clinic shuttered. When Tiller operated the clinic, it was the site of regular protests by abortion opponents, including large "Summer of Mercy" demonstrations in 1991 and 2001 that led to mass arrests.
Burkhart, the Trust Women founder, was a clinic employee and from 2002 to 2009 ran ProKanDo, a PAC formed by Tiller.

The article titled "Kansas Legislature passes anti-abortion bill" in yesterday's issue of the Kansas explained an anti-abortion bill that is currently in the Kansas Legislature. The Senate advanced House Bill 2253 by a vote on Monday, but did not make a final action until Tuesday.
The Senate passed the sweeping legislation with a 29-11 vote yesterday. The bill states that life begins at fertilization. It would prohibit abortion providers from distributing materials for sex education classes in public schools, and would require doctors to provide certain information to patients undergoing abortions. This includes information about abortions and the risk of breast cancer. Members of the house will review the bill before it moves on to Gov. Sam Brownback.

CAMPUS
Speaker addresses media treatment of writers
REID EGGLESTON reggleston@kansan.com
English teachers are well aware of the differences between writing styles of male and female students. But do these differences translate over to Hollywood's author biopic film industry?
That's the question Sigrid Nieberle, visiting professor of Germanic languages, explored in her lecture "Do Men Really Write Differently?" About 20 students and faculty attended the lecture yesterday, which took place in the Centennial Room in the Kansas Union.
The lecture is part of Nieberle's graduate exchange experience at the University this semester. The University's Graduate Direct Exchange program has been one of the largest in the nation since 1963, and Nieberle's involvement with the German department includes designation as this year's Max Kade Distinguished Visiting Professor.
A native of the University of
Erlangen-Nürnberg in Bavaria, Germany, Nieberle engaged spectators who desired an in-depth look into why today's biopics about popular female authors diverge so sharply in theme from biopics about male authors while the presentation of these two types of films remain similar.
While she spends much of her time as a Max Kade professor teaching undergraduate and graduate-level German language courses, Nieberle devotes a fair portion of her passion to understanding gender differences in author biopsics and realizing that male and female writers do write differently.
"Women writers are underrepresented in literary history," Nieberle said. "Scholars have less of a desire to follow women. Today, popular culture shows a greater desire to follow women writers and that's why we've seen an increase in these biopics in Hollywood. I'm not sure why this is, but it's something that I'm investigating."
With short clips from famous

flicks that outline the lives of authors from Mark Twain to the Brontë sisters, Nieberle concluded that "how these women are able to write is a question always asked but is never truly answered."
The German department and Office of International Programs, which helped put on the presentation, were excited that Nieberle was able to share her message in such a momentous year.
"This is our 50th anniversary between KU and Erlangen University," said Lorie Vanchena, associate professor of Germanic languages and literatures at the University. "We're especially excited to host her this year as we look forward to another great 50 years with Erlanger."
Since the Exchange's inception, the mutual relationship between the University and Erlangen has allowed 43 Kansas students to travel to their German sister school.

More remains uncovered in World Trade Center debris
Emily Donovan
ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK - Jim Riches pulled his firefighter son's mangled body out of the rubble at the World Trade Center, but the phone calls still filtered in years afterward. The city kept finding more pieces of his son.
"They'll call you and they'll tell you, 'We found a shin bone,' said Riches, a retired deputy fire chief. "Or: 'We found an arm bone.' We held them all together and then we put them in the cemetery."
Those are the phone calls both dreaded and hoped for among the families of Sept. 11 victims. And as investigators began sifting through newly uncovered debris from the World Trade Center this week for the first time in three years, those anxieties were renewed more than a decade after the attacks.
But there was also hope that more victims might yet be identified after tens of millions of dollars have been spent on the painstaking identification process. Two potential human remains were recovered on Monday, according to the medical examiner.
"We would like to see the other 40 percent of the families who have never recovered anything to at least someday have a piece of their loved one," Riches said. "That they can go to a cemetery and pray"
About 60 truckloads of debris that could contain tiny fragments of bone or tissue were unearthed by construction crews that have been working on the new World Trade Center in recent years. That material is now being transported to a park built on top of the former Fresh Kills landfill on Staten Island, where investigators will attempt to find any possible remains during the next 10 weeks, the city said. That's the material the two potential human remains were found in.
The city's last sifting effort ended in 2010. This time, crews were able to dig up parts of the trade center site that were previously inaccessible to workers, the city said.
Some 2,750 people died at the World Trade Center in the 2001 terrorist attacks, but only 1,634 people have been identified.
"We have been monitoring the World Trade Center site over time and monitoring the construction," said Ellen Borakove, a spokeswoman for the medical examiner's office. "And if they see any material that could possibly contain human remains, we collect that material."
"Quite frankly, they should've excavated this and searched it 12 years ago."
DIANE HORNING Mother of deceased
About 9,000 human remains recovered from the ruins of the World Trade Center remain unidentified because they are too degraded to match victims by DNA identification. The remains are stored at an undisclosed location monitored by the medical examiner's office and will eventually be transferred to a subterranean chamber at the National September 11 Memorial & Museum.
"Quite frankly, they should've excavated this and searched it 12 years ago," said Diane Horning, whose son, Matthew, died in the attacks. "Instead, they built service roads and construction roads and were more worried about the
Some victims' families expressed impatience that the city has only just uncovered more debris.
building and the tourism than they were about the human remains."
The city's efforts to identify Sept. 11 victims have long been fraught with controversy.
In April 2005, the city's chief medical examiner, Charles Hirsch, told families his office would be suspending identification efforts because it had exhausted the limits of DNA technology.
But just a year later, the discovery of human remains on a bank tower roof and then in a manhole near ground zero outraged families who said the search for their loved ones had been rushed initially. The findings prompted a renewed search that cost the city tens of millions of dollars and uncovered 1,500 pieces of remains.
Meanwhile, some victims' relatives sued the city over its decision to move 1.6 million tons of materials from the trade center site to the Fresh Kills landfill, saying the material might contain victims' ashes and should have been given a proper burial.
The lawsuit was dismissed, and unsuccessfully appealed to the U.S. Supreme Court.
As it embarks on combing through debris yet again, the medical examiner's office says it will keep monitoring the site as long as new areas are being dug or exposed.
Charles G. Wolf was pleased to hear about the renewed search, though he believes that his wife, Katherine, was vaporized during the attack. Investigators have never found her remains.
Years ago, it bothered him that he had no grave to visit. Wolf said the opening of the Sept. 11 memorial has filled a hole in his heart, but he'll never have closure.
"You heal. You carry on," he said. "It's not closure."

New Twitter offers insight to crushes
If you maintain some sort of social media presence, you've probably seen it by now. It's the newest hit Twitter account on campus. Its bio says it's "here to make things weird at the University of Kansas." It called @KUSecretAdmirer; it may be offline right now — its moderators told the Kansan that Twitter temporarily suspended it for following too many accounts over the last few days — but it still has lots of students talking.
So by all means, let's talk about it.
Basically, each tweet that the account publishes is something that's been sent to them either by direct message or email. They're supposed to just be "crushes," but if you read them, they're mostly blatant, dirty and unfiltered-yet clever hypotheticals about how much someone wants to have sex with that guy or girl in their biology lab. You know, those horny thoughts that never quite make the trip from your mind out past your lips.
The best part is that you can say whatever you want to your "crush" while maintaining whatever level of anonymity you choose. No matter how specific or vague you are about your iden
tity, you're able to easily get those feelings off your chest. There's a pretty good chance they're going to see it, too — the account racked up 3,000 followers in just three days.
By AJ Barbosa
abarbosa@kansan.com
The account's moderators (there are three of them) spoke to me via email, on condition of anonymity, about how it all started. They said that the idea came after they began seeing anonymous crush-confessions sprout up at other universities across the country. Most took the form of public Google Docs, where students could freely add quips about whatever they'd like to do with whomever after class in a sticky, steamily closet. They decided to do something similar for KU students, and wasted little time before hitting the streets, literally, to spread the word.
"We dressed up in all black and chalked up campus in the middle of the night," the moderators said. You know — the Kansas way to advertise.
Then, they began following other students and asking popular KU parody accounts to mention the account to its followers. By Monday, people everywhere from Anschutz to The Exchange were chuckling over as they read
through all the proposed sexual deeds students were publicly offering to their "crushes."
But, as you know, there's always going to be a group of people who have a problem with stuff like this. When certain things are said and certain names are dropped, issues of defamation and harassment can arise. While one could argue that the majority of @KUS secret Admirer's tweets might be flattering, though exceedingly vulgar, to their intended recipients, there's always a possibility that someone may take offense to a tweet that mentions them.
Since the moderators, who
Since the moderators, who — for now, at least — are anonymous, don't reveal each source's identity, there isn't much action that could be taken against them from a legal standpoint. They haven't received any blowback yet, either; @KUsecretAdmirer's
suspension had nothing to do with the nature of its tweets. That's likely because, unlike some of their predecessors from other anonymous gossip or confession platforms around the country.
The account's moderators insist that they won't publish anything that they feel may be malicious.
"We try to keep it drama free," the moderators said. "We only post 'admirers', not cat fights, purposeful insults or intentions to make or break something."
From the looks of it, they've kept their word up to this point. Though a lot of the tweets contain some pretty creative, and close-to obscene sexual propositions, it doesn't look like anyone's trying to dish out any serious dirt — they'd rather just get seriously dirty.
Regardless of whether or not you're a fan of this new, horny movement on Twitter, you have to acknowledge the fact that there's a market for students who want to both anonymously and semi-anonymously voice sexual attraction for their peers — and that market's bigger than you think. Look at Tinder, the app that lets you privately indicate whether or not you're attracted to your peers and lets you know
if the other person shares that attraction. Or look at Lulu, an app that some have dubbed as the "Yelp for guys," that allows girls to rate guys they've hooked up with. Tons of students dable with apps like these, so what makes @KUSecretAdmirer any different?
It's really just a proverbial classroom desk where anyone with a pen — or in this case, Twitter account — can etch in whatever they please. Somebody may write something that you either enjoy or dislike, but no matter what, you'll never know who wrote it. Luckily, though, there are moderators who keep it from getting malicious. It's just fun.
We're all just a bunch of horny college kids, and @KUSExtAdmirer is a clear-cut example of that. This is a fun time. After all, we don't have much left before we're all doomed to cubicles and 9:30 p.m. bed-times for the rest of our lives.

Internet will force businesses to change, but won't end them
The Internet changes we've seen in our generation have forced several companies to restructure their business plans.
When I was 7 years old, my mom had a Macintosh computer and track-ball that she used to do her graphic designing. The huge machine was loud and produced a funny smell that I can only describe as hot metal. Boot-up took about 15 minutes, and if you were lucky, it wouldn't crash.
By Nathan Bartocci
nbartocci@kansan.com
We kept it in the basement office where my mom worked from home designing the layout for newspapers, magazines, invoices, and even billboards. On the bookshelf, numerous stacks of paper shuffled unevenly on shelves sat next to a spindle of important contacts and a shoe-box filled with what I assume was every single floppy disc ever held by human hands. What little space that was left over was occupied by a very large, very loud Laser Jet printer, a black fax machine, and a random table in the corner that served no purpose other than being one more spot to put stacks of miscellaneous paper.
From time to time my mom would let me watch her work and I would help her build marquees and templates. But what really beat the bunch was a new thing she had that was just beginning to spread across the country. After a quick dial and some agonizing noise we heard that friendly voice say "Welcome! You've got mail!" for the first time.
The Internet was officially in our home.
from using encyclopedia books to software like Encarta to internet databases like Wikipedia.
Our generation is one of the most unique in American history. I was born in 1990 and I remember the transition specifically
It was our generation that grew up watching it develop from text-based websites to goofy websites with little flash videos to the all-encompassing home of information, media and communication that it is today. It was our generation that provided the content.
I remember the different yet similar layouts of Google. I remember going from Xanga to Myspace to Facebook. I even remember websites tattered with moving GIFs, traffic counters, and the infamous "Under Construction" page. It was such that as I grew up, the Internet grew up with me.
Here I am at 22 years old and the World Wide Web is bigger than ever before. We carry it on our phones and tablets, we can access it anywhere wirelessly and video can be transmitted through simple lines of code that stream quickly (or even live) in HD. You can't even be a functioning member of society without the use of a computer and the Internet.
As the Internet evolved, copyright laws faced a crisis. Intellectual property was no longer safe and the world underwent a major transition in how media was acquired.
now sit at the fingertips of almost every person in the world, while record companies, newspapers, magazines and movie industries struggle to adapt to a new environment. The feeling is that writers, musicians and filmmakers are all going to disappear, the result of not being able to make income on their property.
Things that can be duplicated an infinite number of times without ever losing a bit of quality
They are right about one thing: the Internet will change the industry, and the Internet has and will continue to kill companies. However, it won't be an end to creativity and culture.
On the contrary, it has already become a cultural renaissance of creativity. You can find musicians releasing their songs for free just to be heard, writers writing just to be read, photographers, sculptors, craftsmans and painters all doing it because they love it. How will they make money? There are ways. By being hired on as full-time members of various web-affiliations, or letting everyone hear the music, but pay to see it. My favorite example is iTunes LP, which provides a proper incentive to actually purchase an album instead of simply downloading it.
I grew up with the internet; similarly, the internet grew up with me. We are both still incredibly young, and both have a long time ahead. My point is it will happen in time. We all will make it happen. Here's to a bright future of new industry and communication. We are riding the wave of the most important invention in the history of the world.

Jayhawks' loss won't stop March Madness
The Jayhawks lost. You know it, I know it, and unfortunately there's nothing we can do as fans to resurrect the 2012-2013 men's basketball season for Bill Self and company. So what do we do now? There is a wide range of coping mechanisms for fans of "championship or bust" programs like ours when that dreadful day - losing in the NCAA tournament - arrives.
There are the fans who throw their hands in the air and proclaim defiantly that they are done watching the rest of the tournament. Others will watch, but the intensity and passion for each game going forward will be absent. And then there are the fans who stay emotionally attached to the tournament and pay close attention to what the Final Four has in store. I consider myself a part of this category.
The sting of last Friday night's 87-85 overtime loss to Michigan in the sweet Sixteen continues to tinger. The manner in which the Jayhawks lost – blowing a double-digit lead with less than three minutes left in regulation – will haunt the Jayhawks until next season begins. Whether you're a die-hard fan or an occasional follower of the team, we can all agree that this is a game that the Jayhawks let slip between their fingers. But is this enough heartbreak to make watching the rest of the tournament a begrudging task? No. Not even close.
Lost in all of the hoopla of the Jayhawks receiving a No. 1 seed and winning their first two games of the tournament is the ever-important lesson about the beauty that is March Madness. In a college basketball season that seen more parity than any
By Stéphane Roque
sroque@kansan.com
in recent memory, "top-ranked" squads frequently have been humbled. It's only fitting that this year's Sweet 16 featured its first-ever 15 seed, a 12 seed and a nine seed (a member of the Final Four). Top seeds dropped faster than a politician's promise after election day. In a season of constant uncertainty, it's only fitting that the Jayhawks drop a game that seemed so certain to be in the bag.
So this is where we are now. As I type this I'm watching Michigan celebrate a Final Four berth and can't help but wonder what could have been. We tend to bemoan our tragic tournament loss so much that we miss out on some of the spectacular "March Magic" that doesn't wait up for us. All we can do now is accept reality. The state of Kansas will be represented by one team in the 2013 Final Foul, and the word "Kansas" is nowhere to be found on that team's jerseys. That being said, I can't wait to see what Wichita State can do in Atlanta, and you'd better believe I'll be watching every step of the ride, regardless of whether my team is a part of the ride or not.

Exorcism is the Roman Catholic practice of expelling demonic entities from a possessed person's body. Father Vincent Lampert, a Roman Catholic priest and exorcist, will speak tonight at 7 p.m. in the Kansas Union.
MCLATCHY TRIBUNE
GET YOUR EXORCISE
Roman Catholic priest to speak about exorcism practices on campus
She convulses on her bed as if an invisible force is throwing her, jolting up and down, up and down, screaming "Mother please, please make it stop!" Suddenly she stops and lets out a frightening growl. As the priest tries to cast the demon out of her body, her head spins all the way around and she begins to levitate.
This scene from the 1973 film "The Exorcist" is just one of many Hollywood representations of an exorcism. Many exorcisms on film, like the one described above, show insane and abnormal behavior that could never happen in real life. Hollywood exagerates instances of
demonic possession to entice viewers and to ultimately make money. They create larger than life scenes and drag out bizarre behavior to get a rise out of the audience.
Father Vince Lampert, who will speak in Woodruff Auditorium at 7:00 p.m. tonight, says that while some parts of an exorcism can look like scenes from a movie, most exorcisms are much different.

r
the process.
Exorcisms date back thousands of years. Some are even described in the New Testament of the Bible. These verses are generally the ones read during an exorcism. In Mark 5:1 - 20, Jesus met a man who was possessed by the devil and cast out the demon into a hurl of pigs.
He begins the exorcism with a series of prayers, which starts with the litany of saints and is followed by scripture readings, focusing on those in which Jesus casts out demons. Commands are made after the readings for the demon to leave the body of the possessed. These are often repeated several times until the exorcism is over.
Even though instances of possession are recorded in the Bible and other religious texts, Paul Mireki, a University professor in the religious studies department, doesn't believe in them.
"It's not just casting out evil, it's about how do I assist somebody to build a strong relationship with God so this doesn't happen again."
"This is how people dealt with diseases in the ancient world?" Mirecki said.
Lampert is an appointed exorcist of the Roman Catholic Church for the archdiocese of Indianapolis. An exorcism, according to Lampert, is a liturgical rite of the Church. The priest follows certain steps during an exorcism.
Germ theory, the theory that germs exist and cause bacteria and diseases, is only about 100 years old.
The first step is to do research by sending the possessed person to psychiatric specialists and making sure the possession is demonic and isn't just a case of mental illness. Once the specialists determine that the symptoms don't stem from mental illness, a space is needed to conduct the exorcism. An exorcism is always done in a sacred space, such as a church or a chapel. The priest then celebrates Mass and goes to Confession to become free of sin and mentally prepare himself for the exorcism. He will also invite other family members of the possessed or other priests to be present during
FATHER VINCE LAMPERT Roman Catholic priest and exorcist
y about 100 years old. Mirecki says, that since people lived in fear of demons before the advent of modern medicine, they used exorcisms as a way to deal with these unknown health issues
According to Lampert,
some symptoms of
demonic manifestation
in a person possessed
can include knowledge of languages that person has never studied, extraordinary strength, foaming of the mouth, growling, eyes rolling back of the head, cursing at the exorcist, or an aversion to anything holy, including holy water, the Bible, a crucifix and relics.
Lampert's goal as an exorcist is not to focus on the reality of evil, but to help people focus on the presence of God in their lives.
"It's not just casting out evil, it's about how do I assist somebody to build a strong relationship with God so something like this doesn't happen again," Lampert said.
Vince Lampert will speak more about his experience as an exorcist tonight at 7 p.m. in the Woodruff Auditorium in the Kansas Union.

Errors and poor fielding lead to Jayhawk defeat
TREVOR GRAFF
tgraff@kansan.com
The Kansas Jayhawks struggled in the field in their 6-3 loss to the Creighton Blueeays Tuesday.
The three-error performance is an anomaly for the otherwise solid fielding team in the 2013 campaign. The Jayhawks have committed 28 errors in their first 26 games, with several of these coming in multi-error performances.
"I was really disappointed in the performance defensively and that's pretty much been the strength of our team," coach Ritch Price said. "If you make three errors and three of your best players kick routine balls, you set yourself up to get beat. That was our problem tonight."
The team's three errors came on plays many consider routine, but weren't routine for the Jayhawks last night.
For Price, a mix of youth and experience in the field have contributed to the inconsistency on defense.
"Because there's such a discrepancy between how many young guys we have on the field at any given time, I think you're more
likely to have a bad night because of how inexperienced you are. The thing that was tough tonight is only one of those plays was tough as well."
The trend won't shake the Jayhawks from their routine in practice or approach to the game defensively.
"It's just one of those things you run into," senior shortstop Kevin Kuntz said. "You go through stretches where you're on point defensively and making all the plays, but sometimes you hit that one inning. The biggest thing is having a short memory and knowing there's nothing you can do about it after it happens."
Kuntz's ankle is nearly back to 100 percent after a two-week stay on the bench earlier this season.
Kuntz said the recovery process went much faster than he envisioned and although he isn't quite at full speed, he'll be there soon.
The Jayhawks need Kuntz, one of their senior leaders, back at full speed this week as they'll play five games in six days through the weekend.
"You have to come everyday with energy," Kuntz said. "You have to bring it everyday. It's exciting to
play at home again after being on the road for almost a month it seemed like. We just have to flush tonight and come back tomorrow and bring the energy"
To those outside the program, squeezing five games into six days may appear detrimental to a team. For Price, the five-game stand is a solid opportunity for the Jayhawks to gain momentum for the rest of their Big 12 conference schedule.
"Part of it'by design. Tomorrow we're hoping to play some of the younger guys in our program that haven't played very much and pitch some of our younger guys. It gets you in a good rhythm both at the plate and defensively. In the past, we've broken out over the weekend in conference and that's what we're hoping for here."

The Jayhawks continue their homestand facing their NAIA foe the Saint Mary Spires at 6 p.m. in Hogland Ballpark. The Jayhawks will start sophomore right hander Drew Morovick (1-1, 2.79 ERA, 8 K, 5 BB) against the Squires.

THE MORNING BREW The Royals still won't make the playoffs
W e're Jayhawks through and through, but this calendar year has been a little rough at
Michigan guard Trey Burke sucker-punched Kansas with a game-tying 3-pointer at the end of regulation on Friday night after it felt like Kansas had dominated for the better part of the regional semi-final. In that moment, it felt pretty rough being a Kansas Jayhawk fan. Then he continued to pull shots out of his bag in overtime, and Kansas' post-season run came to an early halt.
By Daniel Harmsen
dharmsen@kansan.com
The KU women's team fought valiantly in the tournament, upsetting No. 5 Colorado and No. 4 South Carolina, but was tossed around in a 30-point loss to Notre Dame in another tough loss for the crimson and the blue.
Not to mention, the football team went winless in Big 12 play for the 2nd straight season.
If it makes you feel any better, it could be worse. You could be a Kansas City Royals fan. And if you are, I'm sorry because I am one, too.
Jon Doe" has been a life-long Kansas Citian. Born in 1986, he graduated from
the University of Kansas with a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration in 2008. Now he is the manager at a small furniture outlet in the Power and Light District.
Doe was in San Antonio for the Kansas national championship victory in 2008. He is a season ticket holder for Sporting KC, and he thinks they will win an MLS championship in the next few years. He also went to the Chiefs playoff loss in 2010. Point being, he has seen some highs and lows in Kansas City sports. Most of the highs are evenly spread among these three teams. All of the lows are credited to the Kansas City Royals.
Jon frequents Kauffman Stadium during the summer, but mostly for fireworks, buck night, and an excuse to drink copious amounts of beer. If the Royals win, it's cause for serious celebration; if the Royals lose, well, we're numb to it. Party on.
The Royals traded away young talent to win now. They brought in some solid starting pitching to complement an exceptional bullpen backed by one of the league's best defenses, a decent lineup, and a somewhat competent manager, despite his obsession with bunting runners over to second with less than two outs.
After all, we know the Royals aren't actually trying to win games. Jon hasn't seen a Royals playoff game in his life, not because he had other time commitments or a lack of monetary means, but because the Royals have never made a playoff game in his life.
I want to say that the Royals will break the longest playoff-less dry spell in all American professional sports. I think we all would like to see them play a meaningful game in September. But then again, I've learned to love them for who they are. A minor-league team playing in a major league ballpark, with catch-phrases like "True. Blue. Tradition," "We Believe," and "Our Time."
The Royals have gone a combined 1850-2478 in the past 26 seasons, an average of 71-95. During the 1994-1995 season, when they actually had a half-legitimate shot at sneaking into the playoffs, the league went on strike, and the season was forfeited.
KU
I credit them for my self-deprecating sense of humor and humility. I learned how to make fun of myself and to not take myself too seriously thanks to four 100-loss seasons in five years.
The Royals' inadequacies have tattered us all. While they are poised to eventually make the playoffs, they probably won't. They are the Royals. And I still love them.
*Jon Doe is purely a fictional character in a real-life scenario that many 27 year old Royals fans have endured. God bless us.*

COMMENTARY Mike Rice bullies his players
By Blake Schuster
bschuster@kansan.com
The question is no longer "why?" but "when?" We know the "why"
We know the "why," Why coaches like Rutgers' Mike Rice and Texas Tech's Billy Gillippe think they have the right to take one's child, some kid who came to college to better his life, and treat them like dogs.
No, "dog" isn't the right word. Legendary Michigan football coach Bo Schembechler repeatedly said he treated his players like dogs, but he never did anything like this.
Using derogatory slurs, pushing players, throwing basketballs at their heads and personally attacking players. We know why coaches do this.
None of it has anything to do with basketball.
Some are bullies by birth. Others let the power go to their heads. Neither is an acceptable answer.
Should we be shocked? Ten years ago maybe, but we're smarter now. We know this stuff happens. We're not desensitized, but we're no longer ignorant.
Hell, there's no reason to be shocked on this campus.
It's barely been four years since Kansas football coach Mark Mangino resigned after allegations surfaced that he had been abusing players. On his resume, Mangino touted an Orange Bowl victory, the 2007 Coach of the Year Award and the school record for wins in a season (12 in 2007), but of course that all means nothing the second you decide to cross the line between teacher and tormenter.
It's a stain that not even Stanley Steemer can remove.
Even with his accolades and proven coaching abilities, it took Mangino until last month to get back on a gridiron when Youngstown needed a tight ends coach and a reliable recruiter.
Except for the stigma, that is.
And keep in mind Mangino wasn't fired; he never hit a player and was never sanctioned by the NCAA.
Why coaches abuse their roles and why their assistants are afraid to speak up.
There were videos showing questionable antics and reports from players, but nothing ever stuck.
We know why this happens.
Except for the singular trait Plain and simple, this is what happens when coaches decide the rules don't apply to them. Mike Rice still has a job at Rutgers, but for how much longer remains to be seen. Whether he ever gets hired again is an even bigger problem.
Rutgers deemed a three-game suspension without pay, a $50,000 fine and sensitivity training was the appropriate action. But now that world has seen the videos of what transpired, that might not be enough.
But with so many players on Twitter, with so many people craving to hear their thoughts, with egos simmering, with kids getting fed up and with so many opportunities for a student-athlete to share his or her voice, there's really only one question left to ask:
When's the next coach going to fall?

The Creighton Bluejays had Tanner Poppe's number early Tuesday evening with five runs in the second inning, allowing them to win 6-4, handing the Jayhawks their first home loss of the season. Poppe, who pitched four innings, did not have the outing he wished for Tuesday evening against Creighton.
Junior center fielder Mike Gerber got things going in the second inning for the Bluejays with a home run to right field. By the time Poppe faced his eighth batter in the second inning, the Bluejays took control. Poppe walked sophomore catcher Kevin Lamb. This allowed senior shortstop Alex Staehely to score the second run of the game for Creighton. Poppe surrendered a run against his next three batters of that inning.
"That was a tough inning for us," Poppe said. "I kind of got behind hitters, leaving pitches out. I walked guys and hit guys and got guys on base. It's kind of my fault for putting myself in a bad situation."
Poppe allowed four hits and walked three batters and was charged with the loss. He sits at 1-2 on the season.
"After a big inning like that, you just have to clear your mind and go back out there," Poppe said.
Poppe had an MRI Monday and has missed two starts in the last month because of a back injury. Poppe said he doesn't feel a lot of pain in his body now and has been able to overcome it.
Poppe was unable to pitch last month because cancellations and injury. He said he felt good physically being on the mound for the first time since the March 20 matchup against BYU.
"We didn't know until before the game if he'd be able to go out there," Kansas coach Ritch Price said. "The one positive thing for me was that he took the baseball, went on the mound, and threw 90, 91 miles per hour. He managed to grind through that bad inning and pitch four innings. I look at it as a big step forward because he couldn't even pitch last week."
After Poppe's four innings, Kansas brought four pitchers from the bullpen, including junior starting pitcher Frank Duncan, who was limited to two innings. Because Duncan came out of the bullpen. Price said the weekend starting rotation will flip, and senior Thomas Taylor will pitch Friday instead.
Kansas returns to Hoglund Ballpark today to take on the Saint Mary Spires. The game was added to make up for cancellations earlier this season. Price knows that Saint Mary, an NAIA team from Leavenworth, will look forward to coming to
Lawrence and playing Kansas tonight.
He has an earned run average of 2.79, and has thrown eight strikeouts and five walks in 19 one-third innings.
"I think that they are going to walk in here like every non-Division I team and they are civicst to play here," Price said. "They are almost all Kansas kids that grew up being a Jayhawk fan. This game is the highlight game for them."
played much this season. Price can use this game as a developmental game to try to give them experience.
"It's just another outing for me." Morovick said. "I'm looking to put my team in position to win after a loss."
Price said he hopes to include some of the younger players in the program who have not
Sophomore pitcher Drew Morovick will start for Kansas against the Spires. Morovick has appeared in seven games and started in two. Price called Morovick a "strike thrower," as his pitches have been consistent as a starter and coming out of the bullpen.

HITTING
As Kansas gets ready for its second of five games this week, the offense will be back on the field again after taking on Creighton Tuesday. The Jayhawks' offense has managed to get on base, but have only three home runs, two of them from senior first baseman Alex DeLeon and one from sophomore right fielder Dakota Smith.
PITCHING
Drew Morovick has appeared in seven games, including two starts this year. Morovick filled in for Tanner Poppe last month and get some reps as a starter. Morovick has pitched eight strikeouts and five walks off 19 and one-third innings this year.
?
FIELDING
Kansas' .973 fielding percentage is a step back after committing multiple errors against Creighton on Tuesday. Kansas has to be able to contain its throws and possessions and limit opponents on the bases.
HITTING
the Spires lack a lot of power behind the plate. Junior first baseman Joe Haak has the sole home run for the team as they are hitting .279 on the year. With Morovic on the mound for Kansas, the Spires hope to make a run against him.
PITCHING
Cade Brummer and Stephen Malisa both have more than 20 strikeouts on the season, but combine for a record of 3-6 and own one-third of Saint Mary's wins on the season. Saint Mary, an NAIA school, may go through a lot of pitchers when facing Kansas. Saint Mary's starting pitcher against Kansas will be a game-time decision.
1.
Saint Mary has committed 29 errors and has a fielding percentage of .962 on the year so far. The Spires must step up and do a better job of collecting balls to keep Kansas off the bases. If Saint Mary struggles, Kansas can use its speed to steal bases and rack up a lot of runs.

Students given notable engineering scholarship
EMILY DONOVAN edonovan@kansan.com
Two Jayhawks have been awarded one of the nation's most prestigious merit-based, undergraduate scholarships in the sciences. Qi Chen, a junior studying chemical engineering from Overland Park, and Liaan Dang, a junior studying chemistry from Shawnee, have both received the Barry M. Goldwater Scholarship after a rigorous application process and intense national competition.
"This scholarship is mostly to encourage people to go to grad school and pursue a research career." Chen said.
One of his freshman orientation seminars was led by Dr. Kyle Camarda, an associate professor and associate dean at the School of Engineering, who mentioned Chen's computational chemical engineering research at the end of the presentation. The project started when Chen walked up to Camarda and asked if he had any open space in his lab.
"The project I'm working on right now is quantum level descriptors and computational molecular design," Chen said. "I look at a molecule, look at what other charges are on a molecule and, from that, compare it with other molecules to figure out how well they'll play together — what kind of interactions they'll have."
few meetings, you start catching on to things."
After spending last summer in Denmark collaborating on the project, Chen presented the research at this year's American Institute of Chemical Engineers' annual meeting in Pittsburgh. Outside of the research lab, Chen organized this year's Engineering Expo, is involved with the Self Engineering Leadership Fellows (SELF) Program and plans to spend this summer working as an intern with ExxonMobil.
"The biggest part of the application was talking about your experience in research and why you are a scientist." Dang said.
The Journal of the American Chemical Society published an article covering Dang's catalysts earlier this year. Dang is also the treasurer of her scholarship hall's executive board and involved with the Chemistry Club, taking chemistry demonstrations out to elementary schools to get kids excited about slime and things that blow up or are gross to touch.
Dang sent out emails, attended meetings and entered the research lab in her sophomore year after Chen persuaded her to get involved with on-campus research. Having started off making nanoparticles, she now works to make industrial catalysts, which convert the leftovers from plant feedstock like corn husks or vegetable oil into sellable byproducts.
The two have been dating since meeting up to take a walk around campus on move-in day
"A big focus of my research is renewable and sustainable energy," Dang said. "We're making the biodiesel process more sustainable and more energy-efficient by using the byproducts to make valuable chemicals."
"Iliana's mom still owes me a home-cooked Chinese gourmet meal because she's so happy that I set the two of them up," Marcus said. "I consider that the most successful relationship that I've ever been involved with."
their freshman year. A mutual friend, sophomore Mike Marcus, hassled Dang into approaching Chen after he had met her through the Science Olympiad at Shawnee Mission Northwest High School, and knew Chen through collaboration with Shawnee Mission East High School's Robotics Club.
The scholarship will be applied to Chen and Dang's senior years.

Johnson is suing on the counts of negligence against the fraternity and the alumni board for failing to prevent underage drinking, enforce underage drinking laws, provide supervision and maintain related fraternity and state policy and laws, among other related reasons. He is suing the two individuals for negligence that caused an injury.
According to the Douglas County Court records, Johnson claims that on March 11 at the function hosted by the fraternity known as "Heaven and Hell," he and other underage members
were allowed access to alcohol without supervision.
In the records, Johnson said that upon returning to the house, he went to bed, but was awakened by the two members "n messing with him" while he slept. Johnson then states he was placed in a headlock and his head rammed against a concrete wall. He suffered a "massive closed head injury" and was transported to Lawrence Memorial Hospital and Life Flighted to Kansas University Hospital.
Meberek, the KU Interfraternity Council and representatives from the Sigma Epsilon chapter and national headquarters were unavailable to comment at the time the Kansan went to press.
The court records state that Johnson "permanently lost his sense of smell and continues to suffer cognitive deficits."
Johnson, his family and the Office of Greek Life declined to comment.

CRIME
Efforts by Police at the University to curb the use of fake IDs is attributed to an increase in criminal offenses reported to the KU Public Safety Office, according to a press release Wednesday.
The office said it processed 818 offenses in 2012, including two robberies and one sex offense, up from 732 processed in 2011.
The release cited the office's participation in "a multi-agency, grant-funded fake ID awareness and enforcement
"Providing a safe environment for the KU community is our primary goal," said University Police Chief Ralph Oliver in the release. "We are assisted by proactive efforts like the Fake ID Task Force and by University support of the increased use of closed-circuit cameras on campus."

U. S. District Judge Richard Cebull is seen in this undated file photo. Cebull, Montana's chief federal judge, will retire following an investigation into an email he forwarded that included a racist joke involving President Barack Obama.
ASSOCIATED PRESS
U. S. District Judge Richard Cebull had previously announced he would step down as chief circuit judge and take a reduced caseload, but he informed the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals that he now intends to fully retire May 3.
HELENA, Mont. — A Montana federal judge will retire following an investigation into an email he forwarded that included a racist joke involving President Barack Obama.
The appellate court posted a statement by Chief Judge Alex Kozinski on its website Tuesday announcing Cebull had submitted the retirement letter.
PAGE 3A
The March 29 letter comes after the appellate court's Judicial Council issued a March 15 order on the investigation into the February 2012 email, but appellate court spokesman David Madden could not say whether Cebull resigned because of the order.
"The misconduct process is confidential. I am not privy to what the order said nor do I know what Judge Cebull's motivations were," Madden said in a Wednesday email.
The council's order will remain confidential during an appeal period, which concludes May 17. Madden said. The council will make an announcement after Cebull's retirement takes effect, he said, but added that he was unable to answer when the order or the letter will be released to the public.
A Cebull aide directed calls for comment to Clerk of Court Tyler Gilman, who said Wednesday that Cebull would not have any comment other than the court's statement.
He declined to release the resignation letter or describe what it said.
to Obama and filed a complaint against himself after The Great Falls Tribune published the contents of the email, which included a joke about bestiality and the president's mother.
Cebull wrote a letter of apology
The Billings judge forwarded the email from his chambers to six other people on Feb.20, 2012,the newspaper reported.
Two other groups also demanded an investigation, with one, the Montana Human Rights Network, starting an online petition calling for Cebull's resignation.
Kim Abbott, the network's codirector, said Wednesday she was
pleased with the announcement but hopes to see the results of the investigation.
"The email really called into question his ability to treat women and people of color fairly, so we're happy Montans will get to appear before a different judge," Abbott said.
The complaints were referred to a special committee appointed by the appellate court to investigate whether Cebull's email constituted misconduct.

Students need to rethink their degrees
ERIC SCHUMACHER
eschumacher@kansan.com
In my last column, I wrote about the difficulty of affording college and the reality of just how necessary it is, especially considering the frustratingly slow pace of the economic recovery. In light of these difficulties and the fact that even a solid education hasn't spared many people from the worst of the economic downturn, people have started to question the meaning of post-secondary education.
This isn't to jump on the "college is a useless scam" or "big schools are just corporations selling a very expensive product" bandwagon. The previous column discussed just some of the ways that college is not only beneficial, but necessary. But what if college as it exists is functioning on an old model designed to meet the needs of a time since passed? If so, what do we need to change to make it more responsive to the times we live in?
First, a history lesson: college as we know it was expanded to
the larger population in the decades after World
War II. Before then, a smaller number of people (usually wealthy white males) completed degrees and some went on to a profession that required extra schooling such as medicine or law. Amid the economic boom that followed the war, it was thought that a well-educated workforce was necessary to maintain a strong economy. Many of our grandfathers (including mine) funded their education on the GI bill, which provided tuition assistance for veterans of the war. Over the next few decades, the feminist and civil rights movements helped to give women and minorities access to higher education.
The economy that these people were trained for was markedly different than the one we are entering. From the early 1900s until decades after World War II, manufacturing was at the heart of the U.S. economy. By the 90s, it was information and services-oriented. The professions that allowed the sons and daughters of farmers, factory workers and laborers to join the growing middle class became more ubiquitous—even though highly specialized professionals like doctors, nurses and engineers have always been in high demand.
What does that have to do with today? For one thing, our education system in a lot of ways is still the one that our grandparents went through. But it's also different in a few key ways. Consider that at one point, computer science was almost a novelty, confined to the labs of career academics. Now, according to Forbes, a degree in a computer-related field is one of the most lucrative available. Additionally, unemployment rates and earnings vary wildly within individual fields depending on the content of their course work and the specialized skills they develop, according to a report titled "Hard Times: College Majors, Unemployment and Earnings" released by Georgetown.
This all goes to show what the education of today should look like for the economy of tomorrow: more specialization, more real-world applicability, and more refined technological skills than many curriculums currently offer. Science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) fields, technical training, and professional specializations are the educational priorities we must pursue to make sure we are giving people the opportunity to pursue success and security without being trapped in debt with jobs that don't pay well and don't match up to their skill sets.
For instance, many liberal arts degrees are designed to prepare students for academic mastery instead of what we amusingly call "the real world." In case you didn't know, finding a good job in academia can be very, very hard. The same goes for primary and secondary education, where any shot of moving up requires a professional degree in education. The irony is that we are living in an increasingly shrinking, complicated, interconnected world where the skill set developed while pursuing an LAS degree (communication skills, critical thinking, evidence-based reasoning) is actually becoming increasingly valuable. But because of the nature of what liberal arts students are taught, the potential real-world applications are difficult to market to potential employers and sometimes get lost entirely.
College is as valuable as ever, and more necessary for the current generation than it was for our parents or grandparents. But as the world we inhabit changes, so must what we value in an education. It's up to current and future educators to make sure our institutions are meeting their number one obligation by responding to the demands of the times. But it's up to today's students to hold them accountable and decide what the value of an education really should be.

Animal sanctuaries offer safe living place for wild animals
Before my spring break, finding homes for stray tigers was not on my list of pressing issues in the United States.
After my Alternative Spring Break at the International Exotic Animal Sanctuary (IEAS) and In-Sync Exotics, my eyes have been opened to how much animal sanctuaries do for our society and the need for them in our society. Animal sanctuaries provide a natural, permanent home for animals to live out the rest of their lives. Sanctuaries differ from zoos because they are not open to the public. Also, most animal sanctuaries have education and conservation as core values.
By Jenny Stern
jstern@kansan.com
Unfortunately, the only time that animal sanctuaries really make the news is when an animal attacks. I have heard countless reactions to these news stories, including proclamations about how wild animals are not meant to interact with humans. Too often, the blame is placed on the animal sanctuary, with many believing these attacks should just be expected.
However, many people are unaware of the multiple safety protocols in place to prevent accidents. At IEAS, no gate is opened or closed without a second person verifying that all safety precautions are being met. All the gates are set up so that no person/volunteer/keeper has to be in the same cage as the large cat.
Animal sanctuary workers are probably the last group of people that need to be told that lions and tigers are wild
animals. For example, a tiger at the International Exotic Animal Sanctuary, Sajani, was trained to lift his paw up and look to the sky, presumably for photo-taking purposes. The interns are told not to reinforce this behavior and leave once Sajani begins to put his paw up. Animals that have imprinted on humans and can no longer be released in the wild are common residents at animal sanctuaries. Imprintering occurs when people are under the false impression that wild animals would make a good pet, but then these animals become unmanageable adults.
It is unbelievable how many people obtain wild animals as pets. In-Sync Exotics promotes education on "the realities of irresponsible captive ownership practices and the need for conservation." In an informational video about In-Sync, they talk about turning down rescues a couple times a month due to lack of space. There are other sources of these animals such as circuses and other animal sanctuaries with a lack of space or licensure.
We are so aware of the homeless dogs and cats yet sometimes the abused and neglected exotic animals are overlooked because they are not in our everyday lives. With wild animals, the
possibilities of mistreatment increase. Most people do not know the necessary nutrition needs of an exotic cat and would see no harm in giving cat food to a tiger. Mistakes like this not only lead to malnourished animals but to injuries such as hairline fractures in bones. Animal Sanctuaries take these animals in and meet all of their needs through appropriate diet, habitat, and care.
I asked other participants on my alternative break to give their opinion as to why animal sanctuaries are important in our society.
"They are an educational source to teach people about wildlife," junior Dillon Klahr said. "It shows people that animals are not pets. It's not like they caught the tigers; sanctuaries are beneficial to the cats that do not have the same opportunities as other cats."
"I think they are important because they need to go somewhere and they can't go back to the wild," junior Ramona Yoder said. "Animal sanctuaries give them a home close to their natural environment that won't put them at a disadvantage that they would have in the wild."
Whether they are providing a safe haven or educating the public on the dangers of domesticizing wild animals, animal sanctuaries are an asset to be appreciated.

BBC's 'Sherlock' to come back strong
And so the countdown until series three of BBC's "Sherlock"
A until series three of BBC's "Sherlock" begins. Co-creators and writers Mark Gatiss and Steven Moffat modernized Sir Conan Doyle's Sherlock Holmes stories into what is one of the most visually stunning and well-written TV shows I've encountered.
Of all the Sherlock Holmes adaptations out there, BBC's "Sherlock" wins every time. The casting is perfect. The music is perfect. The scripts, yes, heart-breakingly perfect. Saying I'm excited might be a bit of an understatement.
In early March, pictures of the set started to appear on Twitter. The set designers gleefully sent out photos of the wallpaper in 221 B Baker Street's apartment. Then, they proceeded to smash our hearts with a picture of (spoiler alert) Sherlock's grave stone.
Then things started getting nasty. Gatiss tweeted a photo of Benedict Cumberbatch's (Sherlock Holmes) gorgeous collarbone, and Moffat revealed the three key words of this new season: rat, wedding, and bow.
We, the Sherlock fandom, are being teased. And I'm not sure if I can handle it. Especially after the series two finale "The Reichenbach Fall". My feelings are way, way overloaded. How is Sherlock going to come back? How did he survive a fall like that? How is he going to tell John Watson—played by Martin Freeman—that he is very much alive? Is Mortiarty really dead? What cases will consume Sherlock this season? How will the media react to him not being dead? Will Sherlock and John have a falling out? No horrible pun intended.
Will Mycroft Holmes finally propose to his lover Greg Lestrade? Wait. No. That doesn't sound right. Sorry, getting Tumblr mixed up with real life canon again.
But seriously, I can't wrap my mind around how series three is even going to work, which is
By Emily Brown
ebrown@kansan.com
probably why I am a crazed fan, not a writer for the show.
Gatiss announced the first episode is going to be called "The Empty Hearse," which I'm guessing has everything and nothing to do with Sherlock's resurrection from the dead.
It also looks like series three will introduce a few new characters to the cast.
Actress Amanda Abbington, Martin Freeman's real-life girlfriend, will be joining the cast in a role that "significantly impacts upon the lives of John and Sherlock." There have been rumors, hinting at John's possible marriage to "Mary," Sir Conan Doyle's character who marries John in the original stories. Could Amanda be playing John's future wife? One of the words Moffat teased us with is "wed-ding"...
I'm not thrilled with the idea John might be getting married, but it could create an interesting dynamic between the three characters: Sherlock, John's significant other (if there is one).
But Moffat has a reputation for messing with the fans, so it is entirely possible the wedding clue was thrown out there, just to confusion us. I wouldn't put it past the man, who has in interviews stated he loves making little children cry. So far, he's done a great job making me cry, so kudos to him.
It hasn't been decided when series three will air, but it's looking like Fall 2013. If you decide to take the "Sherlock" feels journey, I wish you luck and godspeed.

HOLLYWOOD
--of a similarly gripping sequence in Steven Spielberg's "Munich," another film that followed the grisly exploits of the Israeli intelligence community.
FIRST LAST/KANSAN
In "The Gatekeepers," director Dror Moreh interviews the six surviving heads of the Shin Bet, Israel's notoriously secretive domestic intelligence agency.
'The Gatekeepers' pierces through Israel's fog of war
They shuffle onscreen one after the other, a grim procession of conservatively dressed older men, their faces lined and weathered from years of thankless toil, each of them wearing the same earnest, haunted expression. You wouldn't think it to look at them now, but at some point, each of these unassuming retirees were responsible for running one of the most respected and feared antiterrorism agencies in the Middle East.
As the leaders of the Shin Bet, Israel's internal security service, these were the men responsible for safeguarding the Jewish state through six decades of escalating political violence, social upheaval and the emergence of incurable fanaticism on both sides of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Now, after years of operating in the shadows, six of these retired spymasters have finally broken their code of silence in "The Gatekeepers," Dror Moreh's spell-binding documentary that echoes Nietzsche's warning to all those who would fight monsters.
Another strength is the documentary's seamless blend of historical reenactments and real-life footage, especially when the subjects are recalling specific operations. One scene involving notorious Hamas bombmaker Yahya Ayasha and a cell phone rigged with explosives achieves all the queasy intensity of a first-rate espionage thriller. I was reminded
The film impresses for a number of reasons. First, for a bunch of ex-security chiefs, Morel's subjects are often disarmingly candid, launching into vivid personal anecdotes that reflect their individual contributions to the agency's long and polarizing history of state sanctioned violence. Avraham Shalom, whose grandfatherly appearance and love of bright red suspenders belie his inner ruthlessness, freely talks about having to resign from his position in 1984 after allegedly ordering the deaths of two Palestinians who had already been detained for hijacking a bus outside of Tel Aviv. His reasoning: "I didn't want any more live terrorists in court."
By Landon McDonald

Moreh's gatekeepers are seemingly united in their disdain for politicians, whose oversight they tend to view as ineffectual and cumbersome, and the sobering belief that morality has no place in a war on terror. Yuval Diskin, whose retirement from Shin Bet in 2011 makes him the fraternity's newest member, resorts to cliche to describe this ambiguity: "One man's terrorist is another man's freedom fighter." They also criticize their government's tolerance for overzealous settlers and Jewish extremist groups, especially a well-connected cell that managed to walk free even after the Shin Bet exposed their plan to blow up the Dome of the Rock in Jerusalem, an act that would have enraged Muslims worldwide.
The history on display here is morbidly fascinating, forming a dismal cycle of violence and retribution, but the real triumph of "The Gatekeepers" rests on its ability to expose the humanity of these hard-hearted veterans, whose barely checked cynicism threats to overwhelm any hope for peace (or Palestinian statehood). In a moment of startling introspection, Yaakov Perl, who served as head of the Shin Bet from 1988 to 1994, comments on the "unnatural" phenomenon of drone warfare, noting that murder is almost crueler when it's impersonal.
In the final scene of last year's "Zero Dark Thirty" after identifying Osama bin Laden's bagged and tagged corpse, intrepid CIA analyst Maya (Jessica Chastain) boards a plane and, after more than two hours of showing no dis-

Kansas theatre department to put on 'Intimate Apparel'
ELLY GRIMM egrimm@kansan.com
The University theatre department is taking a step back in time to 1905 with its upcoming production of Lynn Nottage's play "Intimate Apparel."
The story follows Esther Mills, a seamstress in 1905 New York who sews lingerie for high-class society and prostitutes as she struggles to find love. The opened last night, and there will be performances tonight, tomorrow night, Sunday and next week, April 9-11. All performances will be in William Inge Memorial Theater in Murphy Hall at 7:30 p.m. with the exception of a 2:30 p.m. performance on April 7.
The show's race and gender themes will also be the subject of a discussion after Friday night's performance. Four scholars from the University's English and American Studies departments will each provide a response to the performance and how it intersects with the particular research they're doing, and then a question and answer session with the audience will follow.
"I decided to audition because I wanted to be in a play here, and I love theater," said Ashley Kennedy, a sophomore from Lawrence who plays Esther Mills. "Also, KU
doesn't do a lot of racially themed shows, so that appealed to me, too."
The play is based on the experiences of one of Nottage's ancestors. The realism and history behind the play drew director Scott Knowles to the show.
"A lot of that history from that era is gone now, and no one really has any accounts of what all happened during that time period," he said. "It's great that this play recreates the history of 1905."
Alysha Griffin, a second year Master's student from Appling, Ga. in her first production with the theater department, talked about her favorite aspects of her character in the show, the mother figure Mrs. Dickson.
Knowles said that working with the show's cast was also a great experience and allowed him to be fully involved in the production.
"Her personality is so big and flamboyant, and I feel like I actually know her and have met her," she said. "She's bigger than life."
"It's great getting to be a part of every piece of the show and guiding everyone's collaboration," he said. "Everyone brings their own creative ideas, and it's great guiding that collaboration."

MCCLATCHY TRIBUNE
Silghom Fernandez, left, and Jessica Lucas in TriStar Picture's Evil Dead
First time director gets debut with gory remake
For what it is — a remake of a gory, cult favorite horror flick — the new "Evil Dead" is an enthralling, blood-soaked blast straight out of hell. Horror movies nowadays don't provide the sort of in-your-face brutality that this film does, where things just get so much more twisted scene after scene in insanely grusome ways.
It's been quite some time since a horror experience reached this sort of down and dirty awesomeness. The way "The Cabin in the Woods" cerebrally engaged both the genre and audiences, "Evil Dead" viscerally takes hold of them.
It's similar to watching a video on the Internet of grisly, real-life violent images (think something a bit worse than a sports bone break) that horrifies and disturbs you, yet you can't look away, spellbound by fascinated shock. You even replay it, continuing to squirm and cringe. Except here it involves demonized dead people.
By Alex Lamb
alamb@kansan.com
"Evil Dead" begins with a scene that sets the tone and shows it means business, ending the messy situation of a father and his possessed daughter with a bang as a prelude to the main story. A group of five 20-sometimes are then introduced in the calm before the storm, where their trip to an old cabin out in the foreboding woods will obviously go south very quickly.
nat that adds a little depth and some fun, foreshadowing symbolism, the outing to this secluded place is for Mia (Jane Levy) to quit her drug habit cold turkey, with the support of her friends and brother David (Shiloh Fernandez). It doesn't take long for her to start freaking out, and then everything goes to hell when one of them (Lou Taylor Pucci) reads aloud from the Book of the Dead and inadvertently summons evil spirits.
The low-budget original started director Sam Raimi's career, so he chose a first-timer for the remake as well. Fede Alvarez proves the right man for the job, respecting the style of the original (the roving shots zooming through the woods, the occasional black humor
Someone is soon possessed and the night turns into a fight for survival as the friends try to defeat what they unleashed before it kills them all. During that struggle, you can count on buckets of blood and tons of mutilation and dismemberment, delivered with scary intensity and wild-eyed craziness.
and maniacal ravings of the possessed during tense action, extreme gross-out effects) while switching up some of the narrative beats. Oh, the tree rape is still there, and it's still weird.
But most importantly, Alvarez shot the film using practical effects instead of CGI. This exponentially increases the power of the violence and overall immersion, adding to the unique feel of the horror. Gorehounds are going to go nuts for this.
There's a lull in the third act when Alvarez seems out of tricks, but he picks it back up for a bloodraining finale that raucously satisfies.
The performances are pretty solid too, with the wooden line delivery here and there keeping in line with the original's spirit. When characters are possessed, the performers are highly effective - bizarrely creepy to the max.
"Evil Dead" probably isn't "the most terrifying film you will ever experience" like the advertising says, but it definitely outshines most modern horror flicks through its sheer energy. And as far as remakes go, this one does it exactly right.

The Food and Drug Administration is concerned that drug companies are mis-labeling their over-the-counter medications and marketing them as flu treatments. The FDA has taken action by sending warning letters to all companies in violation of the regulations.
FAKE MEDICINE, FAKE PROMISES
What you need to know about over-the-counter medication
It's been one of those mornings. You woke up expecting to bounce out of bed and head to campus, but your body had other plans. Your head is throbbing, your nose is running, and you have zero energy. It finally happened. You're sick. So you drag yourself out the door and drive to the nearest pharmacy. Upon arrival, your weary eyes glaze over the options and finally land on a bottle promising to cure all your symptoms.
But what if the bottle lied? What if it isn't going to cure you and could possibility even be harmful? What if the words on the bottle are nothing more than deceptive advertising?
"That's not deceptive. It's just lying," said Josh Dean, a senior from Overland Park.
He was appalled after learning some over-the-counter medicines do not accurately list their ingredients.
"I can't believe the FDA would allow that," Dean said. "Don't you have to be accurate in (listing) your ingredients?"
Yes, you do have to be accurate, and the FDA does not allow mislabeling of ingredients. Hence the recent warning letters sent out by the Food and Drug Administration. The government agency identified over-the-counter flu medication with deceptive labeling, counterfeit ingredients and contamination.
According to an NBC story published in February, there is much concern about products claiming to contain the antiviral medication Tamiflu. Tamiflu is only available by prescription, but suspected companies claim to have the "generic version." NBC's FDA source says that when tested, the drugs labeled as generic Tamiflu were nothing more than acetaminophen (i.e. Tylenol) or penicillin derivatives.
There are a couple reasons why these ingredients would not be appropriate flu medication, says Pam Simmons, R.N., house supervisor at Bob Wilson Memorial Grant County Hospital in Ulysses.
"First of all, antibiotics like penicillin will do nothing to help someone with the flu," Simmons said. "The flu is a virus, not a bacterial infection."
Simmons also says that using penicillin derivatives could actually be fatal. If you are allergic to this antibiotic and take the counterfeit Tamiflu, you could have a severe allergic reaction and possibly die as a result. Although no cases of this kind have been report so far, it is a major concern. Because of this practice of false
labeling, Simmons urges patients to only take medications approved by a health care provider.
"There are always opportunities to ask doctors or nurses," Simmons said. "And pharmacists are a great resource too."
But say you aren't allergic to penicillin; is the counterfeit flu medication still harmful? Preeya Patel, a second-year pharmacy student from fola, says probably not. Patel says that people need to understand there is no cure for the flu. It is a virus, and therefore needs to go through its cycle. What we take medication for are the symptoms such as a fever. Patel says that acetaminophen helps control the fever, so technically the manufacturers can claim that their product is for the flu. But she does agree that the FDA should remove the counterfeit Tamiflu products, as it is false advertising.
Abbinav Kumar, a junior from New Delhi, India agrees with Patel. The products should be removed from our drug stores.
"I definitely want to know what is inside the pill I am taking." Kumar said. "It is the drug company's responsibility (to list their ingredients). I mean all the things out there in the market list their ingredients and what they are made of. It is very important that drug companies portray their products accurately, as they have a big impact on our health."
— Noopur Goel
Here is what the FDA is doing to combat fake medications:
1. It sends warning letters to violators, asking them to respond with a plan to address FDA concerns.
2. It gives the seller 15 days to respond.
3. If they do not respond, the FDA will pull offending products from circulation.

PERSONAL ESSAY
THE DAY MY DAD DEFEATED DEATH
The world doesn't stop to mourn your tragedies with you
The steamy, still-summer air made me fully aware of my damp, flattened hair and sticky, sweaty arms as the thousands of people surrounding me sang in unison to lyrics from The Band Perry: "If I die young/ bury me in satin/ lay me down on a bed of roses."
The newly popular country band was playing at Power & Light downtown during one of Kansas' infamous heat waves and drought spells in 2011. My parents had tried to stop me from going to the free concert because of the dangerous heat, but that only made me want to sing louder as I thought about how overprotective they were sometimes.
During the encore, I felt a slight buzzing coming from my purse. I figured it was my mom or dad calling to check if I was still alive. I clumsily unzipped my purse and dug out my phone buried at the bottom to see "Allison Cell," my neighbor of 20 years, lit up on the screen. I put it to my left ear and stuck my finger in my right ear hoping to drown out the background. "Allison! Heyyyy, girl!!!" Listen to this song: THE WAY YOU LIIIIIIE. YOU LIE LIKE A—" She quickly cut me off. I could tell something was wrong. Really, really wrong.
"Caroline, don't freak out, but your dad was just taken to the hospital in an ambulance." My heart dropped, and my body went limp. Tears were rolling down my face before I could even process her words. The first thing that popped into my head was how I blew off my dad's request to stay home and gleefully sprinted out the door to pick up my friend Cait. After I hung up the phone, with virtually no other information than my dad was being rushed to the hospital, I grabbed Cait's arm and ran. Pushing through the intoxicated audience and interrupting her conversation with a tanned, handsome cowboy, I wanted to be anywhere but somewhere without my dad. I turned the 40-minute drive home into a 25-minute drive home and barely stopped my car for Cait to get out at her house. I cried the entire way home, hoping that this was all a sick joke to get me home early. It wasn't.
After arriving to an empty, dark house, Allison picked me up and drove me to Shawnee Mission Medical Center. I saw my grandparents in the bland waiting room and was then directed to my dad's room. He was hooked up to multiple IVs and weird machines that seemed to monitor his every function. My dad looked horrible—exhausted, sad and confused. It took almost all his energy just to tell me hi, but I knew it hurt him to know how scared I was. My mom and I stayed at the hospital until 3 a.m., until he was stable and more aware of his environment. My mom told me that my dad had been in bed trying to fall asleep when he told her he didn't feel well. She touched his clammy, cold skin and immediately called 911. An ambulance arrived within minutes, and paramedics were by his bedside seconds later. They distracted my mom by pretending to be afraid of our dog, while in their room they shocked my dad with a defibrillator while he was still conscious.

different units came to my dad's room to hear his story. He was a medical miracle, they said. At first, professionals thought he had a heart attack, but luckily, there was no permanent damage to his heart. We were told that his heart rate the previous night had exceeded 220 beats per minute. Not one doctor could figure out how he was still alive, especially with no permanent effects. Most blamed his whacked-out heart rate on the Hell-like temperatures outside. He was hospitalized for five nights and got a defibrillator inserted next to his heart that will shock his heart rate back to normal in case it ever surpasses a normal beat again.
I realized as I was looking out of the hospital window that, whether you want it to or not, life goes on. People won't stop when you grieve your tragedies. We were put in a paralyzing situation with an outstanding outcome. We know that being together is more important than any concert or night out ever will be, but we've also gone back to living our life the way it was before. In that moment, I'll never forget whispering under my breath one of my favorite lyrics from The Weepies, as cars sped to work and people walked down the sidewalk. "The world spins madly on." We got lucky, and we can't keep wondering how long that luck will last.

COMMENTARY Self will count on freshmen
PAGE 6B Baseball Rewind
PAGE 4B Softball
Bill Self has always been one to develop freshmen slowly over their first years. It might as well be in the first chapter of his coaching handbook.
Some of his biggest success stories have played minimal minutes their freshman years. The entirety of this year's starting five (minus McLemore), Markieff Morris, and Thomas Robinson all are testaments to Self's patient philosophy.
Next year, he will have to deviate from this plan.
Self only returns two players from his prominent seven-man regular rotation in Naadir Tharpe and Perry Ellis. Jamari Traylor got limited minutes at the fourth big off the bench and Andrew White mostly saw mop-up time. Unless Self plans on either playing only four men or giving an increased role to the litany of coach's sons who sit at the end of the bench, Self will have to rely more on his incoming freshmen.
However, this freshman class isn't a bunch of slouches.
The prize jewel is Wayne Selden. Selden will be relied upon heavily to fill McLemore's shoes as a sorer. Selden's stroke is not as pure as McLemore's from the outside, but 3-point shooting is still a strength. Selden also has better handles than McLemore and is more willing to create his own shot.
Finally, Joel Embid compris the only big of Self's recruiting class. Raw as hamburger meat sitting on an unlit grill, Embid has the highest ceiling of anyone in the class, and will probably replace Traylor as the fourth big off the bench, with Landon Lucas, who redshirted this year, sliding into Perry Ellis' role.
This freshman class may not have the name recognition of Kentucky's incoming class, but it provides a myriad scoring and tons of potential. That's good, because Self hasn't had to rely on a freshman class this heavily since Mario Chalmers, Brandon Rush, and Julian Wright were freshmen.
By Ben Ashworth
bashworth@kansan.com
If these freshmen can come close to living up to those names, the 2013-14 season will be an interesting ride.
Conner Frankamp, fresh off leading the United States to a victory in the 2012 FIBA U17 World Championships, will provide much needed depth behind Tharpe and Selden, though Self has indicated a desire to keep Frankamp off ball as much as possible. Frankamp is the kind of player who could beat you in a game of HORSE using just five shots. He is a natural scorer and the Wichita native should quickly become a fan favorite.
Roundting out the guards is Frank Mason, a three-star prospect who Self believes was undervalued by recruiting analysts. He has been compared to a poor-man's Sherron Collins and will probably play sparingly in his first year, but could have a large impact as one of only two true point guards on the roster.
Brannen Greene, like Frankamp,
thrives as a shooter. Greene will
either be expected to start or back
up White at the small forward
position. Like most freshmen, Greene
will have to work on his defense and
confidence off the dribble. However,
he is a natural scorer, and with Kansas losing its top five scorers, that is an enormous positive.

TY GARDNER
@FakeJeffWithey
Before we get started, let's take a moment to appreciate how ridiculous this all truly is; how ridiculous it is that I am writing a farewell column for a fake Twitter account, how ridiculous it is that the Kansan agreed to let me do this, and most of all, how ridiculous it is that you are still reading. There is something very abnormal about it all. But that is what this experience has taught me. The rules that apply everywhere else are different here at the University.
I decided to reveal myself in the paper today not because I think this is going to make me some kind of celebrity and not because I think it will impress girls or get me in free at the bars. I'm revealing myself because I wanted to thank you all, and I believe that thank you carry a little more weight when you know who is giving them.
My name is Ty Gardner. I graduated from the University last spring with a degree in political science. And I bleed crimson and blue.
I created @FakeJeffWithey with the idea that it would be a fun way to make jokes and brag about the school I love at the same time. Maybe if I was lucky, I thought, it might catch on and there would be a few hundred people that enjoyed it. Needless to say, things exceeded my original expectations pretty quickly.
Before I started this account, I always bragged about how Kansas fans are unlike any others in the country. I knew this to be true despite the fact that I had only experienced the culture from a fan's perspective.
This all became so much bigger than I could have ever imagined, and there was a reason for that. It was because of you.
Then I created the account, and you started laughing at my jokes. I found out that you hated Kansas State as much as I did. And you even sent in pictures of you and your friends #Witheying (I still can't believe that caught on). Before long, I started to feel like I had a small role to play in the Kansas basketball community.
Knowing that I was a part of the game day experience for so many of you humbled me. As silly as it is given the context, it made me want to be better. I wanted to give you more polished punchlines, witter catchphrases and new ways to make fun of the entire state of Missouri. Why did I want to do this? Because I learned that the only thing better than being a Kansas fan is being cheered on by Kansas fans.
This doesn't happen at other places in the country. Fans of other schools don't camp for days just to be in the building for tip-off. They don't pack the stands each and every night regardless of the opponent. They don't know what it's like to live and die by the result of the game like Kansas fans do.
And at other schools, they don't do this. A regular student with no connections to the athletic department doesn't get to feel like he had a role in something as big as Kansas basketball just because a few people laugh at his
jokes. He doesn't have a chance to experience the support of the great fans in the country. He certainly doesn't get the opportunity to use the school newspaper as an outlet to thank those fans.
But this is Kansas. We do things differently.
Just as we all reach a point where we must move on from the University, the time has come for me to step away from the @FakeJeffWithey Twitter account. As much as I'd love to tweet from the account next year, holding a Withey Block Party without the Withey just doesn't seem right.
Now, I move my Jayhawk jokes to my personal account, @TyGardner. In doing so, I'll be leaving behind the halftime locker room updates and postgame catchphrases. Luckily, I've talked Tyler Self into putting his NBA dreams on hold for one more year so that I still have some familiar material to work with.
So this is the final farewell for @FakeJeffWithey. It may have just been a fake Twitter account, but I'd be completely lying if I said that it hasn't provided me with a ton of good times. This experience has brought so many great memories that I will enjoy for the rest of my life, and it wouldn't have been possible without you. Thank you for the support. Thank you for the love. And thank you for making this university unlike any other in the country.
Rock Chalk Jayhawk!

Kansas senior shortstop Kevin Kuntz lead the Jayhawks to a 3-0 victory over the Saint Mary Spires scoring two runs on a 3-for-3 night at the plate.
The three-hit performance is Kuntz' fourth on the season with three of these coming in the two weeks since his return from an ankle injury that kept him out of the Jayhawk lineup for three weeks.
"I'm not trying to overdo things," Kuntz said. "I'm just trying to keep it as simple as I can. I don't try to go out and get say two multi-hit games. It's just one of those things where you stick with your approach and not get caught up with what happens after you hit the ball."
The senior scored the Jayhawks first run on an RBI double from senior firstbaseman Alex DeLeon in the bottom of the third. The firstbaseman led the Jayhawks with two doubles and batted in all three Jayhawks runs on the night.
Kuntz scored the second run of the game as well after another DeLeon RBI double scored both Kuntz and junior outfielder Michael Suiter to give the Jayhawks their eventual winning tally in the bottom of the fifth.
"The two balls Alex hit to day were huge," coach Ritch Price said. "He's the only physical guy
The Jayhawks recorded their sixth shutout of the season, a number not reached since 1993 when Kansas appeared in the College World Series. Solid work from the Jayhawks' pitching staff and a rebound in infield defense solidified the shot at the shutout late in the game.
we have in our lineup so it's really important that he's a run producer, and it's nice to see him clutch them."
"It's not easy facing a new guy every at bat, especially when you're starting the inning off as the first guy to face him," Kuntz said. "You just try to study him in the dug out or when you are on deck and go up there and stay aggressive."
The Jayhawks faced six Spires pitchers in last night's game, making it difficult to find a rhythm at the plate.
"We were in the top-25 in the country defensively about two weeks ago," Price said. "We've been sloppy is what we've been. I don't know if it's a result of traveling so much that we haven't got as much practice time, but the strength of our team has been our infield defense."
Pitching played heavily in the shutout. Coach Price said this is in large part due to solid starting pitching and the solid back of the bulpen in sophomore right hander Robert Kahana and Junior right hander Jordan Piche'.
Kansas starting pitcher Drew Morovick went five shutout innings giving up four hits on three strikeouts and two walks on the game. Piche' closed the game with two strikeouts in the final inning.
"They're solid in every phase of the game," coach Price said. "They're a typical good Oklahoma State team with a very good offensive club and three starters that will pitch with velocity."
The Jayhawks face Oklahoma State in a weekend series starting Friday at 6 p.m. at Hoglund Ballpark. The Cowboys are ranked nineteenth in the most recent NCBA rankings.
This weekend's series is the conference home-opener for the Jayhawks after facing both TCU and Oklahoma on the road.
"I tell you, I can't wait," Coach Price said. "It's been a brutal seven weeks and it's nice to finally be back at our ballpark. Hopefully it will put some energy back in our dugout again with all the travelling we've been doing."
The victory moves Kansas to 16-11 on the season as Jayhawks' senior starting pitcher Thomas Taylor (2-0, 1.29 ERA, 32 SO, 12 BB) prepares to face Oklahoma State sophomore starting pitcher Jason Hursh (3-1, 2.12 ERA, 40 SO, 7 BB) in Friday's series opener.

THE MORNING BREW Title IX causes lack of soccer interest
like soccer. I know people who like soccer. I know a lot more people who don't like soccer.
Soccer fans have a different taste, one that hasn't quite settled on the palates of many sport-interested Americans. And as the queasy feeling built in my stomach from seeing satisfaction, even praise, after the U.S.'s tie with Mexico in last week's World Cup qualifier, I wanted an answer. How could American citizens honestly be satisfied with a tie? Why aren't we the best?
It's a puzzling question. How does the most popular sport in the world have minimal popularity stateside? There are several reasons, but for me, one lies above the rest: Title IX.
I could fill a novel with my frustration concerning Title IX, and one of the chapters would be how the law restricts the cultivation of soccer in the U.S. As
By Chris Hybl
chybl@kansan.com
excited and knowledgeable as we all are about some of the scholarship-earning, budget-blowing sports offered at our university and other universities across the nation, student athletes are indeed "balling on a budget"—a big one breeding from the bottomless pit of money created by men's basketball and football.
Less popular men's and women's programs within Division One programs spend dollars in the hundred-thousand
range and report revenues well short of the expenses.
The bottom line is that equality costs money, and in the case of college sports, it costs a lot of money. Last year, total revenues for the Kansas women's swimming and diving team totaled to $1,001. The rowing team had approximately the same revenue. Total expenses for swimming and diving? $1,086,907. Rowing team expenses? $1,279,902. But it's not just the women's side; the ever-glowing football team is in the hole by over $5 million—but which would you bet on to turn a profit sooner?
But maybe we don't have to abolish Title IX. We could keep the same number of athletes and make everything hunky-dory if we and other athletic programs across the nation add another women's sport and simply balance the scholarships. And since money isn't the
KU
WILLOW
issue, the only problem left would be selecting which women's sport to add. Equestrian and water polo is about all that is left for the picking.
Regardless, bringing soccer back to the Big 12 and other power conferences would do big things for the U.S. national team and the MLS. And I promise, once the MLS throws in cheerleaders, some flopping fines and a no-tie rule, we, America, will have fixed the only chink in the American sporting arm.

Team struggles to win against opening conference opponents
TYLER CONOVER
tconover@kansan.com
When you have a Big 12 schedule, that usually means you have to play Big 12 opponents. For the Kansas tennis team, that schedule has not been kind as the Jayhawks have started 0-3 in conference play and are on a 17-game conference losing streak. The most recent loss came from Kansas State in devastating fashion as the Wildcats won 4-3.
Luckily for Kansas, there is room for redemption this weekend as the team travels to Texas to take on two ranked teams in Baylor and Texas Christian University. As of Wednesday, Kansas sits in eighth place in the big twelve with only Iowa State and West Virginia below them. Only two teams in the Big 12
have more than three wins, so with a successful road trip the Jayhawks could get into the conversation for first place.
On Friday, the opponent will be No. 42 Baylor who sits at 7-12 overall, but had seven top-10 matches in its non-conference play, and is 2-1 in the Big 12.
For Kansas, this road trip will definitely test singles play as the team will see four nationally ranked singles players. Baylor has 10th-ranked sophomore Ema Burgic, who is currently riding a six-game winning streak. Freshman Victoria Kisialeva checks in at No. 120. Those two also play as partners in doubles play and with their 17-1 record have earned the No. 29 spot in the ITA rankings.
TCU he Stefanie Tan who is No. 71 and senior Olivia Smith
who is No. 75. That is not all for the Horned Frogs either, Smith and Mille Nichols are currently No. 47 doubles play with an 8-3 record this spring.
The layhawks have a talented team and look to end that conference losing streak behind the teams new No. 1 singles player as Haley Fournier has left the team. The teams other freshman Anastasija Trubica started the spring on fire starting out 6-0 in singles play, but has cooled off a bit with a loss in each of her last two matches.
For Kansas the schedule is not going to change, but if the layhawks can get a win or two this weekend it might help fuel them to climb the conference later.

Men's and women's teams poised for Kansas Relays
After starting the outdoor season with a successful performance at the Texas Relays, the Kansas track and field team travels to Tempe, Ariz., this weekend.
COLIN WRIGHT
cwright@kansan.com
The women are still holding on to their No. 1 national ranking according to the U. S. Track and Field and Cross Country Coaches Association (USTFCCCA). While they have already garnered success during the indoor season en route to a team Big 12 championship and NCAA runner-up finish, the team has even bigger goals for the outdoor season.
Sophomore Evan Landes ranks in the top-10 nationally after his personal best time of 30:09.23 in the 10,000 meters last weekend. Austin Hoag, a sophomore from Lawrence, set his personal record in the high jump last weekend, clearing 2.01 meters (6'7").
On the men's side, Michael Stigler is coming off one of his best performances last weekend in Texas. The sophomore from Canyon, Texas, ran the 400 meter hurdles in 50.00 seconds, the best time in the nation this season.
With the Big 12 outdoor championships one month away and the Kansas Relays just two weeks away, the Jayhawks will look to improve their personal records in Arizona.
The No.1 ranked women's team will be led by a number of nationally ranked athletes, including senior Francine Simpson, who currently has the best long jump in the nation after her jump of 6.62 meters (21-8.75 f.) last weekend.
Senior Andrea Geubelle will look to continue her dominance in
the triple jump. A win this week end in the triple jump will give her 15 wins in her last 17 meets against other colleges. She currently has the best triple jump in the nation with a leap of 13.74 meters (45-1.75 ft.).
Heather Bergmann, a senior from Concordia, ranks sixth nationally in the javelin after her throw of 49.88 meters (163-8 ft.). Jessica Maroszek, a junior from Seymour, Wis., has the fourth best disc throw of the year after throwing 54.23 meters (177-11 ft.) last weekend.
The Sun Angel Classic will take place all day this Friday and Saturday in Tempe, Ariz., on the campus of Arizona State University.

The Kansas rowing team heads to Bloomington, Ind. to take on the Indiana Hoosiers and Georgetown Hoyas Saturday morning.
Kansas is coming off a close loss to Kansas State in last weekend's Sunflower Showdown. With one race left, the varsity eight, the two teams were tied. K-State raced out to gain the lead, but Kansas slowly chipped away. The Jayhawk boat ran out of water to complete the comeback, falling by 1.4 seconds.
Against K-State, the Jayhawks won the novice four and second varsity eight races. The Wildcats won the varsity eight, varsity four and novice eight.
A boat to watch in this weekend's matchup against Indiana and Georgetown is the Kansas varsity four boat. That boat has won four of its six races this season. The second varsity eight boat also competed strongly against K-State and has been racing well.
Indiana raced last weekend in a scrimmage against Dayton and Eastern Michigan. The Hoosiers' varsity four, varsity eight, novice four and novice eight swept the scrimmage. Monday, three Indiana freshman rowers were accepted to the US National Team Freshman Camp. This camp is for rowers with high potential but not much experience.

Golf team hopes to rely on depth as postseason looms
CHRIS HYBL

The Kansas men's golf team has a lot to do in a little time. The team has just two tournaments left before the Big 12 Championship and not a lot to show for this season's sport - 0 top five finishes.

"We've really struggled this year, we can get three really good scores but we've been struggling with that fifth and fourth score," said Kansas golf coach Jamie
One of the team's last two tournaments before postseason play will be this weekend. The team is set to ship out to Charlotte, N.C., this morning at 9:00 a.m. and begin preparation for their participation in the Irish Creek Collegiate on Friday and Saturday. The Jayhawks have seen the course before and will try to top last year's 8th place performance.
"We've been talking a lot about the golf course: what to do and what not to do," Bermel said. "It's
always good to go back to a course season. Along with Stan Gautier

the three have finished in the top-three for Kansas' team score in each tournament this spring. The trio has five top-20 finishes among them.
Switching the five-man lineup has a corn
modity for Bermel this year, and
that is changing again this week. Bermel will put Bryce Brown into the rotation. Brown finished T-23 at the team's last tournament, the Desert Shootout in Phoenix over spring break.
"He played well down there so I put him in the lineup," Bermel said. "He played well over spring break so hopefully he can continue to do that and help out the team."
The Jayhawks have felt pressured to earn a respectable finish for the duration of the spring
season, but Bermel just thinks the team is actually over-pressuring themselves.
"The guys have a hard time understanding that they don't need to shoot 65 when a 68 will help, when a 70 will help." Bermel said. "We just need to do a better job of understanding that and I think that will help our scores come down a little bit."
The Jayhawks will tee-off the 54-hole event on Friday morning.

Team travels to Lubbock aims to sweep Texas Tech
JOSEPH DAUGHERTY
idaugherty@kansan.com
Coming off the Big 12 opener and the toughest weekend of the season, the Jayhawk Softball team will head to Lubbock on Friday to face the Texas Tech Red Raiders.
Last weekend, the Jayhawks fell to the No. 7 Texas Longhorns in all three games of the series. Though some of the final scores can be misleading, the Jayhawks competed and had a chance to win each game of the series. Last weekend marked the second straight series that the normally potent Kansas lineup was held in check and was not able to string together multiple key hits.
"Aside from one inning, we were right there with Texas in all three games," coach Megan Smith said. "We had one bad inning that left a bad taste in our mouth, but I felt like we competed well and had
a chance to win at least a couple of games, and that shows our growth as a program, and we hope to continue that this weekend at Texas Tech."
Smith believes Texas Tech is a lot like the Jayhawks because they have a strong offense and solid pitching. Smith expects the Red Raiders to have an explosive offense like always, and for this to be a series where there could possibly be a lot of runners on base and runs scored.
Texas Tech is 27-14 on the season and coming off a series against Oklahoma State where the Red Raiders came with one win in the three-game series. The Red Raiders are hitting .323 and allowing opponents to .230. Texas Tech boasts an offense with seven players that have started more than 29 games hitting .300 or above. The potent Texas Tech will provide a
challenge for the young Jayhawk pitching staff.
The Jayhawks hope to get the offense back on track after two subpar weekends by this season's standard. Even after two tough weekends for the offense, Kansas is still hitting. 363 as a team and has seven regular starters hitting .300 or above, including Big 12 leader Maggie Hull who is hitting.490.
"It's been a couple weekends since our offense has been able to go," Hull said, "so I'm excited to go out there and score a lot of runs, and we hope to win every game we play this weekend."
MLB
At least on paper, this weekend's series in Lubbock looks like it could be a shootout. The Jayhawks enter this weekend series 0-3 in the Big 12 and the Red Raiders are 1-2.

Royals hope to avoid another loss to Chicago White Sox
ASSOCIATED PRESS
CHICAGO — Adam Dunn homered and the Chicago White Sox went deep four times to back a solid start by Jake Peavy in a 5-2 victory over the Kansas City Royals on Wednesday.
Tyler Flowers, Dayan Viciedo and Alexi Ramirez also connected, and the White Sox made it two straight wins to start the season after dropping 12 of 18 to Kansas City a year ago.
The Royals, full of optimism after posting the majors' best record in spring training, will try to avoid a season-opening sweep Thursday.
Peavy (1-0) allowed one earned run and four hits in six innings, striking out six and walking none.
Dunn had two hits and scored
twice. He led off the second with his 407th home run — tying Duke Snider for 48th place on the career list — and Flowers opened the third with his second shot.
The three-time All-Star resigned with Chicago after a
Peavy did his part, outpitching Ervin Santana (0-1) after Chris Sale shut down the Royals in a 1-0 victory Monday in the opener.
Viciedo made up for his gaffes in left field with a big swing in the fourth, hitting a two-run drive that made it 4-1. The Royals scored a run in the sixth and loaded the bases against the Chicago bullpen in the seventh, only to come away empty-handed. Ramirez got the lead back up to 5-2 with a drive leading off the bottom half off Luke Hochevar, and the White Sox sung on from there.
rebound season last year and started this one on a strong note. Five relievers combined to shut down the Royals, with Addison Reed working the ninth for his second save.
Santana (0-1), a mainstay in the Angels' rotation for eight seasons, also went six innings and gave up four runs and five hits. He struck out eight and walked one, but the long ball did him in.
Kansas City is counting on Santana to help solidify the rotation along with fellow newcomers James Shields and Wade Davis and a re-signed Jeremy Guthrie, moves that helped spark a surge of hope after the Royals finished with a losing record for the 17th time in 18 years.

Injured guard cleared to travel to final four
MARCH MADRID
ASSOCIATED PRESS
Iniured shooting guard Kevin Ware after his injury against Duke.
LOUISVILLE, Ky. — Injured Louisville guard Kevin Ware will travel to the Final Four on his crutches and expects to be a big presence for the Cardinals.
Cleared by doctors to accompany Louisville to Atlanta, the sophomore told The Associated Press Wednesday that he plans to be a full participant in the team's preparation for Saturday's game against Wichita State. The Cardinals left around 7 p.m. for a flight expected to last just more than an hour with Ware on it.
Ware said the overwhelming support he has received has helped him maintain his spirits and strengthened his confidence of a full recovery. He hopes by next season to be helping the Cardinals defend the national championship he believes they'll win this weekend.
Ware credits teammate Luke Hancock for calming him down.
"Luke said his words, and I just kept repeating, 'yall gotta go win this game.' I'm fine. . . It really helped the team."
But it wasn't easy for the Cardinals, many of whom cried after seeing Ware's gruesome injury — his bone protruding through his skin.
The normally reserved 20-year-old calmly recalled how he felt when he suffered the devastating injury, saying he doesn't think Louisville would be in the Final Four if he had lost his composure.
"He got me to that point where I really had to put the pain on hold," said Ware, with his leg in a cast propped up on a couch at the Cardinals' practice facility. "Once he said his prayer, I was kind of thinking the whole time, 'you can either be a crybaby about it or you're going to get your team back and get them in the right mindset.'
Even Louisville coach Rick
Pitino was emotional, wiping tears from his eyes and later saying that the sight of his player's injury almost made him vomit.
But Pitino said everyone's emotions have settled down, knowing
that it appears Ware will be OK.
"I think we're all fine now," Pitino said. "Just having Kevin around, we can exhale now."
The coach said having Ware in Atlanta might provide the Cardinals with a little "extra emotion," but in his experience the "the team that executes the best will win."
The coach downplayed staying with him at the hospital after his injury.
And while Pitino said everyone can exhale now, the Cardinals had to take a deep breath when Ware went down on Sunday. They eventually regrouped and took the lead at halftime against Duke en route to an 85-63 victory over the Blue Devils in Indianapolis.
Pitino and his son, Richard, spent Monday at the hospital with Ware, who was pictured holding the championship trophy in his bed. Though Ware had maintained his composure talking with AP, he became very emotional during an earlier interview with ESPN when talking about waking up and seeing the championship trophy.
"There's not a coach in America that wouldn't be there," he said.
"Kevin has gone from being a quiet, unsure guy to being a very mature man."
Through it all, Ware said he had to remain strong. He was placed on a stretcher and wheeled out of Lucas Oil Stadium to cheers of 'Kevin Ware, Kevin Ware,' before heading to Methodist Hospital.
Ware underwent a two-hour operation to repair compound fractures of the tibia that left the leg at an odd angle. He awoke the next morning to discover he had become an overnight sensation, and the afterglow hasn't waned.
His condition and progress have been featured every day on the major networks, the Internet and especially social media. The Cardinal's practice facility was surrounded by a phalanx of satellite trucks, and the interview requests
RICK PITINO Louisville coach
helped Wareget an early jump on his rehail as he shuttled back and forth between make-shift sets.
Ware said he has heard from several of his NBA idols, including Kobe
Bryant, Kevin Durant and Charles Barkley. The Louisville guard said he has even heard from first lady Michelle Obama and the Rev. Jesse jackson.
For the soft-spoken Ware, the support and media attention has meant more interviews than he ever imagined.
"I had no idea I would get this kind of attention," he said. "I'm one of those guys who just likes to play basketball. But the injury opened up a lot of people's eyes and I really appreciate all the support. It really means a lot."
But as Ware cherishes the flood of warm wishes, he's also dealing with the irony of the injury's occurrence with 6.33 remaining in the first half against Duke.
He leaped high near the right sideline to defend a 3-point attempt, similar to a defensive play he made without incident in Louisville's game in November against Duke in the Bahamas. This time he landed awkwardly, with the leg going in two different directions.
"That was frustrating because it happened the same exact way, me making the play," Ware said. "I was
thinking then about just blocking the shot and that was what I was thinking this time. This was just different"
Ware also lamented the timing of his injury, a recollection that made him pause for a moment. A key part of Louisville's guard rotation who often substituted for starters Peyton Siva and Russ Smith, Ware had overcome a one-game suspension in January and was coming off a career-best, 11-point effort in Friday's tournament win over Oregon.
Pitino said that performance typified Waase's maturation process.
"Kevin has gone from being a quiet, unsure guy to being a very mature man," the coach said. "Kevin was very quiet, he kept to himself and didn't show many emotions. In the last couple of months, he's come out of his shell and is showing his emotions."
Then came the injury that has changed Ware's perspective.
"I think God puts things in your life and you have to go through certain obstacles," he said. "I just feel like these are obstacles that are going to make me grow up for the better. It's going to open my eyes to a lot of things I probably haven't seen before."
Ware said he's already seeing how difficult it is getting around with one healthy leg.
Fortunately for him, his girlfriend, Louisville sophomore Brittany Kelly, has been there to help since he was injured. Ware's teammate and roommate, forward Chane Behanan, will lend a hand as well.
"He's handling it better than I would've expected," Kelly said. "When they took the towel off his leg, he asked if he'd be able to play next week before they told him no."
Ware's mother, Lisa Junior, also plans to move from Georgia to aid her son's healing process. Ware said his leg will need eight to 12 weeks to heal before he begins rehabilitation in hopes of returning by the start of practice in October.

WSU coach content in Wichita
Wichita State coach Gregg Marshall signals that his team is headed to the Final Four. They defeated Ohio State 70-66 in the West Regional final in the NCAA men's college basketball tournament, Saturday, March 30, 2013, in Los Angeles.

ASSOCIATED PRESS
ATLANTA — Gregg Marshall sat in his office on the campus of Wichita State on a cold January morning, his familiar eye glasses set aside, and gazed at the championship nets nailed to the wall.
Every one of them represents a league title he won at Winthrop. Seven in all.
Seven times in nine seasons he took the tiny school in South Carolina to the NCAA tournament, and he insists that he would have been perfectly content doing the same thing for the better part of another decade. He's not the sort to uproot his family, jump to the next best thing, the bigger job with the bigger salary, especially when they too often turn out to be a mirage.
"You can't buy happy," Marshall said. "Winning is important to me, and we've proven we can win here. And so it would have to be really, really special, and the timing would have to be right, and it's not just me. It's my players and the players I recruited and my family."
So it took the right opportunity at the right time for Marshall to leave for Wichita State, where he now has the Shockers in the Final Four. And he insisted back in the quiet solitude of his office that it would take the right opportunity at the right time to pry him loose again.
So there was Louisville coach Rick Pitino, who will oppose Marshall on Saturday night at the Georgia Dome, skipping town after five years at Boston University to become an assistant for the New York Knicks. And there he was after just two years and an improbable Final Four run at Providence in the late 1980s, leaving to take over the same NBA team as its head coach.
There was a time not so long ago that Marshall's steadfast dedication to the Shockers would have run countercurrent to big-time college basketball. The coaching
ladder was one to be climbed until your arms gave out, until you reached the pinnacle of the sport — or until you fell.
That was how it was done. Tackle your current challenge, and look for a bigger one.
While that is the path that brought Pitino to this Final Four, it is not the path Marshall plans to take his career.

Kansas' offense has been able to produced seven runs on Tuesday and Wednesday combined. This weekend in the conference home opener against Oklahoma State, Kansas will need to score more runs if they want to finish over .500 in the conference after this weekend. The Cowboys are third in the Big 12 in runs while the Jayhawks are sixth. An improvement in scoring is a necessity in order to stay in the hunt for the Big 12 title.
HITTING
PITCHING
Kansas coach Ritch Price re-ordered the starting lineup this weekend. The Jayhawks will lead off with their best pitcher against Oklahoma State in senior Thomas Taylor on Friday and sophomore Wes Benjamin on Saturday. Junior Frank Duncan got some action as a relief pitcher on Tuesday against Creighton, but has been inconsistent as a starter and Price wants to see a better output from him.
FIELDING
SUNSHINE
Kansas committed three errors in Tuesday's loss to Creighton, but bounced back on Wednesday with no errors against Saint Mary. Senior shortstop Kevin Kuntz said the Jayhawks perform better and feels good when the their fielding is strong. The Jayhawks will need that strong fielding from Wednesday's game to carry over against Oklahoma State as they resume Big 12 play this weekend.
HITTING
PITCHING
The Cowboys are batting .295 as a team on the season with a team on base percentage of .386. The Cowboys have three hitters working above a .300 clip. Junior first baseman Tanner Kriertemeier leads the team with a .368 average, 39 hits, and 24 RBs. Sophomore infielder Zach Fish leads the squad with five home runs and 27 RBs; his .333 average is second on a squad that packs a significant amount of pop at the plate.
The Cowboys pitching staff is once again among the best in the Big 12. As a team, Oklahoma State pitcher combine for a 2.94 ERA with 215 strikeouts giving up just 5 home runs on the season. Cowboys ace junior right handed pitcher Vince Wheeland leads the staff with a 6-0 record in thirteen appearances, 2.01 ERA with 39 strikeouts with a .228 batting average against.
FIELDING
The Cowboys boast a .969 fielding percentage, but have committed 35 errors on the season. Freshman in-fielder Donnie Walton leads the team in assists with 71 assisted put outs on the season. The Cowboys are a solid fundamental squad under the guidance of new Head Coach Josh Holliday.

MIU
reliever, he showed his capable of starting any day after his performance against the Saint Mary Spires.
Kansas coach Ritch Price felt good about Morovick's five innings as Kansas held a 3-0 lead by the time Morovick was taken out. Morovick struck out three batters and allowed just four hits in five shutout innings Wednesday night.
"It was good to see him get back out into that starting role," Price said. "We're trying to get him to take the next step to the next level."
While taking the mound, Morovick has limited opposing players and kept them scoreless in his last 17 innings for the Jayhawks. He's appeared in eight games this season and started in three
of them. Morovick is now 2-1 on the season and has an ERA of 2.22 this year.
Morovic has been a big asset to the jayhawks' pitching rotation, filling in as an extra starter when needed.
"He pitches to contact and he lets the defense play behind him," Price said. "We're trying to have him get a better vibe on his breaking ball so he can strike batters out when he's got two outs in two-strike counts. He gives you a solid effort every time when you give him the ball."
Morovickliked his performance on the mound against Saint Mary. At the same time, he sees room for

improvement.
"It would have been nice if I could have started it as smoothly as I ended it," Morovick said. "I just went out there and threw strikes, just like how I'm supposed to. I gave my team five shutout innings and put them in position to win."
Morovick helped contribute in the sixth shutout game this year for the Jayhawks, which is the most since 1993 when the Jayhawks appeared in the College World Series.
"He did a really good job of pounding the strike zone early," senior shortstop Kevin Kuntz said. "He got ahead of hitters and finished them off and trusted his defense."
His defensive teammates liked what they saw from him, giving them more confidence and energy to play when they get a good outing on the mound.
Morovick, who was the Tuesday starting pitcher last year as a freshman, has been the team's top option for a new starting pitcher in case a weekend starter or Tuesday starter goes down to injury.
With senior Thomas Taylor being one of the weekend starters
and leaving Kansas after this season. Morovick hopes he can eventually change his role.
"Definitely hoping to be a weekend starter," Morovick said. "I've got to get my velocity up on my fast ball and I've got to strike people out better with two strikes."
With five games this week, Morovick was added to Kansas' starting lineup. Now, he'll return to the bullpen and will continue to pitch shutouts as he eyes a weekend starting job as a junior next season.

Exposure to noise, rather than aging, leading cause of hearing loss
Michelle Mason, a graduate student from Price, Utah, takes extra precautions to prevent hearing loss later in life. She opts for headphones instead of ear buds, and keeps her music volume low. She said she has also begun wearing ear plugs while clubbing.
MARSHALL SCHMIDT

The noise level inside Allen Fieldhouse often exceeds that of a chain saw, according to an article titled "What Causes Hearing Loss" recently published in The New York Times. Exposure to noise, rather than aging, is the leading cause of hearing loss, according to the article.
Michelle Mason, a graduate student from Price, Utah working on her master's degree in speech-language pathology, takes extra precautions to prevent hearing loss later in life.
"I make sure my music volume is lower," Mason said. "I've even started taking ear plugs when I go clubbing."
When listening to music, Mason uses her pink headphones, which pose less risk for hearing
damage compared to ear buds, she said.
To avoid hearing loss, the volume of an iFod should be at 60 percent of the maximum level, according to Kostas Kokkinakis, assistant professor of speech-language-hearing.
While Kokkinakis knows of no study confirming the noise level at Allen Fieldhouse will cause hearing loss, he said students should try to minimize their overexposure to noise.
"If you listen to your music too loud now, nothing happens temporarily," Kokkinakis said. "But cumulatively over the course of your lifetime, you might be at a higher risk of affecting your hearing health."
tional Health and Nutrition Examination Survey published by the American Medical Association. Hearing impairment today affects nearly 30 million people, according to the Department of Labor.
Hearing loss among adolescents has already increased, according to The Third Na-
Musicians may also be at risk for exposure to high sound pressure levels, according to research conducted by Sheri Cook-Cunningham, a graduate student from Leawood.
While her research shows music venues can expose performers to up to two and a half times the recommended maximum noise dosage, Cook-Cunningham cautions there is no conclusive evidence musicians have sustained greater hearing loss.
Gradual hearing loss can occur with repeated exposure to loud sounds, said Angie Reeder, audiologist at the University.
"We want people to be aware of potential exposure to high sound pressure levels," Cook-
"Once this damage to the cochlea's sensory cells has occurred, there is no cure or regeneration of sensory cells," Reeder said. "So, the hearing loss and tinnitus (ringing in the ears) may become permanent."
Cunningham said. "But we don't want them to think they are necessarily going deaf."
Reeder recommends that people have their hearing checked regularly and consult resources, including the Center for Disease Control's website, to help determine their noise exposure.
"We have discounted the damage that may be occurring

Kayla Everhart, a freshman from Ill., blows her nose as she sits outside on a spring day near newly blooming flowers. Some scientists predict that this could be one of the worst allergy seasons in recent years.
Late snowfall creates worse allergy season
JENNA JAKOWATZ
jjakowatz@kansan.com
This spring will be especially unpleasant for seasonal allergy sufferers.
The late snowfall means that the trees, flowers and other flora that typically bloom early in the spring will instead bloom with the rest of the flora later in the season. With everything blooming at once, this means that the typical spring allergy season will be dramatically worse. Allergy sufferers are not pleased with the severe symptoms they are already feeling.
Jeni Arbuckle, a freshman from McPherson said that the pollen in the air has triggered her symptoms frequently.
"Pollen is the main source of all the problems most people have with seasonal allergies so there's tons of people, myself included, that are just dying because of how high the levels have been recently," Arbuckle said.
The Lawrence area has been under a tree pollen advisory several times in the past couple of weeks. Arbuckle said she had to step up her tactics in her effort to stop her symptoms.
"I've been using eye drops, cough drops, and Benadryl. I'm
taking Zyrtec just about every morning. After a week or two of taking it consistently, there's a pretty noticeable change in the harshness of your symptoms," Arbuckle said.
Kalen Stockton, a freshman from Topeka, is also feeling this spring's effects.
"I almost never suffer from allergies, especially in April, but this year I'm sneezing every five seconds," Stockton said.
Stockton said her symptoms are so unpleasant that she cannot compare what she is experiencing to anything she has felt before.
"My symptoms started about a week ago, a few days after the spring break snow. I'm sneezing like crazy — very violently. I have a sore throat and scratchy voice, and my eyes are very watery. The symptoms are definitely worse up on here on the hill with all this wind," Stockton said.
Students who are experiencing symptoms severe enough to disrupt their daily life and school work are encouraged to talk to a doctor at Watkins Health Center to see what is causing their allergies to flare up and what they can do to end the suffering.

MATTHEW JOHNSON
mjohnson@kansan.com
Faced with a looming budget shortfall, the Kansas legislature has been considering whether or not it will cut funding to higher education institutions across Kansas for fiscal year 2014.
The House wants to cut 4 percent of state funding to higher education while the Senate has proposed only a 2 percent reduction. Gov. Sam Brownback's budget proposal would keep higher education funding at its current level.
"The governor has been very clear that higher education is a partner in growing the economy of Kansas. The innovation mission, entrepreneurial spirit and trained workforce — all of these things are necessary for our economy to grow," Caboni said. "We're the largest incubator in the Midwest."
TimothyCaboni,theUniversity's Vice Chancellor for Public Affairs, agrees with Brownback's perception of higher education as an engine of economic growth for the state and advises against further cuts.
Caboni also pointed to the benefits provided by the University that are difficult to measure on a balance sheet.
produce any measurable return for 10 or 15 years," Caboni said. "What is the value, or return, on having an educated populace? What is the value of medical breakthroughs or works of art that can only be produced at a flagship university?"
According to Caboni, although state funding only constitutes about one-fifth of the University's total revenue, a 4 percent dip would cost the University millions of dollars — $20.3 million, to be exact.
If the deepest cuts are approved, it would mean an $11.4 million reduction for the University of Kansas Medical Center and an $8.9 million reduction across the University's other departments and programs.
Michael Lynch, political science professor and coordinator of the University's Topeka internship program this semester, explained the political rationale behind cutting funding to universities, as well as the impact the cuts will probably have on University students.
"It seems likely that tuition will go up from this cut," Lynch said. "If you cut K-12 funding, they don't have the money, and there's no way to make it up. Politically, it's more feasible to cut funding from an institution that has another way of getting money."
In just more than 14 years, state funding to the University has declined by $124.4 million. Caboni explained the effect of this reduction on each University student.
"The funding for the University today is below its 2006 level," Caboni said. "If you take it in constant dollars, we've gone from $371.3 million in fiscal year 1999 to $246.9 million in 2014. If you look at those figures per student, it's 15,000 per student in 1999 and 9,000 per student in 2013. As you can imagine, that puts tremendous pressure on the institution."
Lynch also noted the combined impact of state and national cuts to higher education.
"If you get continued cuts from state aid, you have to have tuition increases and larger classes. There's also a cut at the national level from sequestration, so it's hard for the school to eat all that." Lynch said. "It will affect salaries, it will affect the recruiting of faculty and it will affect our ability to retain faculty."
Caboni said the University has done as much as it can to limit waste and maintain quality.
"When you're talking about this kind of reduction, there is no more fat to cut," Caboni said.

DJ to speak at third Jason Wren seminar
Byczkowski
TROY
College students drink knowing alcohol consumption can entail harmful situations. "Solo Cup Culture: Minimizing the Risks
of an Alcohol-Soaked Campus Climate" hopes to address that.
The third-annual Jason Wren Initiative Underage Drinking Education Seminar will be tomorrow, presented by the University of Kansas chapter of Sigma Alpha Epsilon Fraternity and Delta Gama Sorority.
When SAE member Jason Wren died from alcohol poisoning in 2009, his fraternity brothers created the Jason Wren Initiative to honor his memory and raise awareness of irresponsible drinking and how to deal with those who are negatively affected by alcohol.
"Coming out of such a tragic event, it was an eye opener, looking towards where we see collegiate culture of irresponsible drinking," said Robert Aaby. "We wanted to take a stand against that and move into a more positive culture."
Robert Aaby, a junior from Wichita double-majoring in communication studies and journalism, is SAE's Jason Wren Event Chair. SAE, he said, is raising awareness and taking measures to prevent irresponsible drinking, as evidenced by this semester's transition into a dry house, meaning no alcohol is permitted on SAE property.
As a DJ, a Redbull Representative and a Delta Tau Delta fraternity member at Ohio State University, Jake Byczkowski, this year's keynote speaker, has attended a few parties. Sharing stories of dangerous encounters due to his own problem drinking, Byczkowski discusses bystander intervention and harm reduction.
"More than anything, we want to preach the dangers of irresponsible drinking and how to go about drinking in a responsible way," Aaby said.
"We felt that he obviously had a face-to-face experience with a lot of binge drinking through DJ-ing so he'd be very qualified to talk on the subject." Aaby said.

The seminar, presented in Budig Auditorium 120 from 6.30 to 8.30 p.m.tomorrow, will be free of charge.
Man who held hostages at Clinton office on the lam
ASSOCIATED PRESS
MANCHESTER, N.H. — A man who took hostages at a Hillary Rodham Clinton presidential campaign office in 2007 escaped from a minimum-security correctional facility on Sunday, authorities said.
Leeland Eisenberg was discovered missing during an afternoon head count at the Calumet Transitional Housing Unit in Manchester, state Department of Corrections spokesman Jeff Lyons said.
At his arraignment in that case,
public defender Randy Hawkes
Eisenberg was sentenced in May 2010 to 3 1/2 to 7 years for probation violations. The 52-year-old would have been eligible for parole in August.
Eisenberg spent about two years behind bars for the November 2007 siege at Clinton's Rochester campaign office in which he claimed to have a bomb. No one was hurt in a five-hour standoff and the bomb turned out to be road flares.
Once he is found, he will be charged with escape, a felony punishable by $3 \frac{1}{2}$ to 7 years in prison, Lyons said. Eisenberg isn't considered armed.
portrayed Eisenberg as a man at the end of his rope emotionally after being repeatedly turned down when he sought psychiatric help.
Eisenberg "heard voices and saw a movie in his head telling him he had to sacrifice himself" to shine light on the flaws in the health care system, Hawkes said.
Eisenberg was released on probation in November 2009. His first violation occurred soon after his release, when he failed to charge his monitoring bracelet. He was incarcerated in January 2010 after failing to take mandatory alcohol breath tests.
In February 2010, he cut off his electronic monitoring bracelet and fled, a day after being given a last chance at freedom by a judge who released him despite multiple probation violations. He was found in his Dover apartment the next day.
Eisenberg's long criminal record also includes two rape convictions.
He was sentenced to 10 years for rape in Worcester, Mass., in 1985 but escaped the next year and committed another rape, prosecutors said. He was sentenced to 11 to 20 years for that. He was released from prison in March 2005.

First Wounded Warrior Scholarship awarded
KATIE MCBRIDE
kmcbride@kansan.com
The Office of Graduate Military Programs announced the winners of the first-ever Wounded Warrior Scholarship, which serves to provide financial assistance to injured veterans and primary caregivers.
The winners, Anthony Schmidteler and Jennifer Thornton, have both felt the effects of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Schmidteler, a junior from Kansas City, Kan., was diagnosed with the condition after serving in the Marine Corps and be deployed to Iraq twice. Thornton's husband, Jason,
was also diagnosed with PTSD after serving in the Army and returning from two combat tours in Iraq.
According to Thornton, a graduate student from San Diego who was accepted into the School of Social Welfare for fall 2013, she was able to notice a change in her husband immediately after he returned home with his unit.
"PTSD manifests itself differently in different people. For a lot of people, it takes some time for it to fester to the surface," Thornton said. "For him, it was right away. He came home in September, and by Christmas he was nonresponsive and shutting the whole world out."
Schmiedeler also started to see changes in himself that resulted from PTSD.
PAGE 3A
"When I got out, I was having a lot of trouble transitioning. I was having a lot of anxiety problems; I had trouble sleeping." Schmiedeler said.
It started to have such an effect on his life that Schmiedeler decided to seek help. Bill Steele, program assistant for the Office of Graduate Military Programs, read about some of his experiences in the letter that Schmiedeler submitted while applying for the scholarship.
"When Anthony first got out of the military, he had a very difficult
readjustment period. I remember he said in his letter that just walking from the parking lot to the building where he was taking his class would result in terrible anxiety and paranoia, to the point where he felt like he was going to have a major breakdown." Steele said.
While the adjustment for veterans from military to civilian life can be difficult, Steele says the scholarship can give some help to veterans who need it.
"It can be very expensive, time-consuming and frustrating to deal with the long process of recovery that some of these soldiers have to go through," Steele said. "It has a
tremendous impact on the family. This scholarship is just one thing that can alleviate some of that pain and stress."
Schmiedeler plans to obtain his degree in graphic design and begin work as a professional graphic designer. He hopes that one day he will be able to start his own design firm.
Thornton will begin coursework towards a Master of Social Work in fall 2013, and plans to work with wounded warriors and their families after she completes the program.

Gaza police investigated for shaving people's heads
ASSOCIATED PRESS
GAZA CITY, Gaza Strip — Police in Hamas-ruled Gaza have started grabbing young men with long or gel-styled spiky hair off the streets, bundling them into jeeps, mocking them and shaving their heads, a rights group said Sunday
It is the latest sign that the Islamic militants are imposing their strict practices on the population.
Hamas has been slowly forcing its fundamentalist interpretation of Islam on already conservative Gaza since it overran the territory in 2007. The new crackdown on long hair and tight or low-waist pants — in several cases accompanied by beatings — appears to be one of the most aggressive phases of the campaign so far.
The crackdown began last week, and two of those targeted told The Associated Press said they were rounded up in separate sweeps in Gaza City that included more than two dozen young men.
House painter Ayman al-Sayed, 19, had shoulder-length hair before police grabbed him and shaved his head Thursday.
"The only thing I want to do is leave this country," said al-Sayed, who despite his ordeal defiantly wore stylish but outlawed narrow-
leg tan khakis Sunday. "I am scared. They just take you from the street without reason. I don't know what they are going to do next."
Hamas officials played down the campaign — a stance adopted in the past that allows the group to distance itself from a controversial crackdown while at the same time instilling fear in those it targeted.
Ziad al-Zaza, the deputy prime minister of Gaza, said the head-shaving "was a very limited, isolated behavior of the police and is not going to continue."
The Palestinian Center for Human Rights . . .

"They just take you from the street without reason. I don't know what they are going to do next."
Enshrining such separation in law marked another step forward in Hamas' campaign of imposing Islamic practice.
Since seizing Gaza from Abbas six years ago, Hamas has moved gradually in spreading its ultraconservative version of Islam. It has issued rules restricting women or
Hamas to investigate the "arbitrary detentions and violations of civil rights of civilians."
AYMAN AL-SAYED House painter
The hair crackdown came just days after the Hamas-run parliament in Gaza passed an education bill mandating separate classrooms for boys and girls from the age of nine.
Gender separation is already widely practiced in Gaza schools, as it is in the West Bank, where Hamas raid Mahmoud Abbas, the Western-backed Palestinian presi-

was waiting at an intersection for a shared taxi when a police jeep approached. Al-Sayed said he was thrown into the jeep with more than 10 others already squeezed into the back of the vehicle. He said policemen cursed them on the way to the police station.
A young man came into the police station, saying he was looking for his cousin, said al-Sayed. One of the officers grabbed the young man, who had his hair in gel-styled spikes, and shaved his head as well.
There, the detainees were lined up, and a policeman began shaving their heads. He shaved two lines, from front to back and from one ear to the other, telling the young men they could finish the job at a neighborhood barber shop.
Naibq, the high school student, said he was seized outside his home and put in a police jeep along with four young men who had come to Gaza City from the southern town of Khan Younis.
"They said, 'we want you to respect our tradition,'" Naqib said. "They made a cross on our heads and asked us to leave and finish the shaving at a barber shop."
Naiqb's family is originally from Tunisia, and he said he wants to go back there, after he finishes high school.
On the way to the police station, police insulted them and warned them that Gaza is Islamic, said Naqib.
In another incident, a Gaza teen, who spoke on condition of anonymity for fear of retribution, said he saw police beat three young men in downtown Gaza City for wearing tight, low-rise pants. The witness said the policemen beat the three with clubs on the backs of their knees and told passers-by watching the scene to move along.
Ahmed Yousef, a Hamas figure identified with the more pragmatic wing of the movement, said the police behavior is "absolutely wrong" and must stop. Hamas is often divided over such campaigns, but the pragmatists have been unable to stop the more zealous members.
Hamas is also competing with the even more fundamentalist Salafis, a movement that has gained strength and popularity in Gaza in recent years. Salafis have criticized Hamas for not implementing Islamic law in Gaza quickly enough.

How to use language to create laws
I has recently come to my attention that if I wish to get my most extreme beliefs turned into law, all I have to do is put the words "defense of..." before them. Sure, the method isn't fool-proof yet, but I figure if enough far-right Republicans have their way, all of our laws will read like that.
After all, we started with the Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA), which has been so unsurprisingly controversial. As more of the country grows to accept or act in favor of the LGTBQIA community, DOMA falters and seems to be crumbling slowly. Yet there's something in the name — it's not called the "we don't believe homosexual people have legal rights" act or the "we hate gay marriage" act, yet it's really the same thing. So it's not so much the deed that the act does, but the name the act has.
Clearly I wasn't the first to figure this out, because two Rowan
By Anna Wenner

County representatives in North Carolina recently decided to give the "Defense of" trend a go. These men are now pushing for the Defense of Religion Act (which I shall hereafter call DORA), which would allow prayer in public institutions, including county commission meetings and schools. It has also been suggested that it would reopen the debate about the line of separation between church and state.
For as long as I can remember, the line between church and state has always been more of a wall. It's never been a line I thought someone could accidentally cross. What's interesting is that Kansas legislators have been itching to destroy the die altogether and have made only a little progress, most of which has been labeled by the rest of the country as radical. While DORA seems to be getting a similarly negative response, it has raised the question of where the line
between church and state really sits and has caused many to pull out a constitution and check for themselves. In the few days since it was suggested, DORA has gone viral as an example of radicalism and a threat to the first amendment. Even if it's just to gather viewers, the national news media has already caused quite a scare, and at the time this article was written, it had only been two days since the proposed act was first noticed.
So what's different? The name Which brings me back to my point. Any belief can become law if you are defending your belief rather than attacking
someone else's. The key is in the wording. By "defending" marriage and religion, two sacred rights in our country, the proposers come off as worried individuals rather than nosy busy-bodies. It doesn't matter what the act actually does as long as the name sounds patriotic.
I figured I should try out this new naming trend. Who knows? Maybe a Kansas legislator will see it and try to put it into action. I've already named it for them, after all.
1) Defense of Freedom Act (DOFA) — All people have the right to do everything they want whenever they want however they want. Anarchy shall rule.
2) Defense of Parents Act (DOPA) — It would be recognized that parents know everything and should be allowed to know every detail of their offspring's life with no age restriction. (In other words, every college student's worst nightmare) Until death do they part?
3) Defense of Coffee Act (DOCA) — Coffee would be sold at a discounted price while all other beverages would cease to be sold so as not to interfere or compete with the coffee market.
4) Defense of Sex Act (DOSA)
— Sex is meant to be between a man and a woman, within a marriage. Because this act is put into place, all human beings, especially teenagers, will follow it blindly. They will realize the error of their ways and will come to the light. Or something like that.
5) Defense of Testosterone Act (DOTA) — Men are inherently better than women. To show this, every Thursday all the men of America will pause at noon and beat their chests dramatically to show their dominance.

SOCIETY
Don't let life get in your way to reach out to your loved ones
The clock reads 2 a.m. when my cell phone's ringer violently awakens
me. As the sluggishness of my body starts to wear off like a bad hangover, I grab my phone. Ten missed calls all from the same number. Horrific thoughts start to fill my head. My phone alerts me there's a new voicemail. I'm hesitant to listen to it, but curiosity and fear consume my body like an addiction. I hit the voicemail button. After I listen to the message, I can't get it to stop playing in my head. I'm paralyzed by it. I was told there was an accident and now someone I love is dead. My memory is hyperactive, remembering the memories we shared. A strong sense of guilt brings me back to the harsh reality. The guilt is waiting until later (in this case, never) to tell this person how much they meant to me and for being too self-absorbed with my life to reach out. I'm sobbing, cold and alone. My life is in a million pieces.
And then I wake up.
By Bryenn Bierwirth
bbierwirth@kansan.com
Sometimes later never comes.
It's a nightmare that happens too often, but brings clarity to my life. It reminds me how important each day is; every day is a blessing. Life doesn't come with a guarantee. Neither does tomorrow.
I think it's important we think about that when we tell ourselves that we'll do something later – there is nothing you are doing right now that is more valuable than never doing something.
This is ironic because we live in a digitally advanced society that offers sites, apps and services that interconnect people at the touch of their fingertips or at a click of a button.
How is there no time right now when this generation has championed the term "multitasker"? Why are we waiting until later when we can do multiple things at once?
Maybe I'm being to idealistic in my columns. It's ideal that people get the most out of life. It's ideal to be reminded that you are loved. It's ideal to see the beauty in life and to have an optimistic attitude toward life. Maybe people do want these things, but right now they are too busy to focus on what's really important in their lives. Maybe it
is society telling us what's important and setting cockamamie expectations to fulfill a spurious void that we created.
Maybe people need to be more realistic and understand life is happening now, not later.
I'm not concerned with who is to blame for why we procrastinate living our lives. I'm more concerned with having you realize that and doing something about it. I don't write my columns for myself. I write them for people who have the power to make a difference and will. I'm just one man behind his computer writing a column. But, I'm trying to enable people like you to make the world a better place right now, not later. I do this because there is something we can all offer the world. For me, at least right now, it's writing motivational columns to tell people to make a difference. It might not sound like much, but at least I'm making an impact.
What kind of impact do you want to have? Whatever it is you just thought of, go and do it now, not later. Never let the "L" word affect you, again.

RELATIONSHIP
Dating younger may be better for success
This month as I have anticipated turning another year older come Saturday, I couldn't help but reflect on age and how and when it makes a difference in the dating game. The first time I dated and then broke up with a younger guy in high school, I swore never to "date down" again.
A few years later, I broke my rule and dated another younger guy, who was coincidentally best friends with my ex. And when that went south, I renewed my vow and have been faithful to it since.
But as I prepare to blow out 23 candles, I've had to wonder what's really the matter with younger guys, and I couldn't actually think of much. So with that, this week I'm a heroine for the younger fellas: if you've already botched your New Year's resolution, you should make a new one not to oust a guy over age starting now.
First of all, younger guys tend to be eager to please. Of course you can interpret that as you will, but this holds true outside the bedroom too. Some younger guys may be afraid they can't give you everything an older guy can and will be motivated to compensate for it. Of course, relationships that are one-sided are doomed to fail, but at least you won't be the one fighting for validation like you might with someone older.
Also, according to Glamour magazine, younger guys come with less relationship baggage than their older counterparts. As a result, your risks of encountering a relationship freak-out only a few months in brought on by a tragic past with a cheating girlfriend are lower with someone who's a year or more your junior.
Younger guys aren't as jaded either. Older guys may be nice in that they are more mature and don't have to resort to sneaking
With all that said, younger guys aren't for everyone. If you're in it for the long haul and can't stand a guy with a dirty apartment, you should consider looking for a partner elsewhere. But if you're in the business of having a low-stakes relationship, don't knock it until you try it.
It's important to keep in mind that some older and younger guys don't fit the molds of their respective age groups and may deviate from the norm accordingly. But in the end, age is not just a number, and when you can truly evaluate what you want in a relationship then use that number to your advantage, both you and your younger or older guy will start to reap the benefits.

through windows to get into bars, but with age, they have a more weared mentality. In my own experience, the old guys have been more serious, more dramatic and less willing to indulge. If you prefer fun over seriousness in relationships, you may be happier with a younger guy.
Finally, while young guys are eager to please, they aren't eager to get married. Moving in and tying the knot are generally not on their radar, so if you're not ready to share an address or are uninterested in saying, "I do," a younger guy would be a good match.

Backpacks, fanny packs make a fashion comeback
MK
CALLAN REILLY-PINA
creilly-pina@kansan.com
Spice up your outfit this spring by accessorizing with a leather backpack or waist purse. These accessories are making a comeback.
Stars such as Kanye West, the Olsen twins and British model Cara Delevingne have all recently been spotted wearing backpacks. Rachel Zoe and Rihanna have both been in designer waist purses as well. What was once trendy decades ago and then banned from fashion is now back again for another go. It seems that history does repeat itself.
Spring fashion trends have taken an interesting turn, perhaps towards tourism. With accessories such as backpacks, packy inspired waist purses and even visors popping up in stores, the only thing missing is a one-way ticket to paradise.
CALLAN REILLY-PINA/KANSAN
To avoid looking like a tacky tourist in the latest accessories, be sure to keep it simple. Aim for something that's smaller in size and in leather. This will ensure your new and convenient purse will look more like an accessory than a book bag. Neutral colors such as black, brown or white look best — patterns or bright colors will prove that these carry-all purses should stay in the '80s.
The same rules apply for waist purses, also known as belt bags. Anything slightly flamboyant will give off the idea that you're on your way to a themed party. Stick with the basics and you'll instead be chicly hands free. Designers Michael Kors and Tory Burch have both hopped on the bandwagon by designing
simple and small waist purses. Tory Burch went above and beyond and updated one of the fashion brand's classic looks, the Robinson cross-body bag, to convert into a belt bag. There's hardly anything better than two purses in one.
packs no longer something only your grandmother would wear. Fashion has a way of constantly surprising us, though it isn't always a warm surprise at first. Sometimes things take time, and trendy backpacks and funny packs may be one of them.

'Pong' to be played on side of 29-story Philly skyscraper
ASSOCIATED PRESS
PHILADELPHIA — Philadelphia is getting ready for a super-sized game of "Pong" — on the side of a skyscraper.
$4 FOR A
WEEK
OF TANNING
831 Massachusetts St.
Lawrence, KS 66044
(785) 856-0123
See store for details.
The classic Atari video game will be re-created this month on the facade of the 29-story Cira Centre, where hundreds of embedded LED lights will replicate the familiar paddles and ball.
Organizers expect hundreds of onlookers as gaming enthusiasts use giant, table-mounted joysticks to play from afar. The players will be standing on the steps of the Philadelphia Museum of Art, a site that offers an unobstructed view of the office building from across the Schuylkill River.
"Pong" is a cultural icon, cultural milestone," said Frank Lee, the Drexel University game-design professor behind the concept. "This is my love letter to the wonders of technology as seen through the eyes of my childhood."
18740926573
Despite the buzz the idea has received since being announced Wednesday, Lee said it took five years to find people willing to make it happen. He eventually met kindred spirits at Brandywine Realty Trust, which owns the Cira Centre, and at the online news site
Now, what might be the world's largest "Pong" game will be played April 19 and 24 as part of Philly Tech Week, the news website's annual series of events, seminars and workshops spotlighting the city's technology and innovation communities.
"This is one of the best things I could imagine that could make people aware that there's something happening here, and bring more people into the fold," Technically Philly co-founder Christopher Wink said.
Lee noted it was rewarding on an emotional level, comparing it with the excitement he felt as a boy when he would put the "Pong" game cartridge into the console. And he hopes it inspires a new generation of innovators.
Wink estimated about 150 people might play over the two days
— most will be chosen by a lottery, but some spots will be reserved for younger students enrolled in science, technology, engineering and math programs.
Technically Philly.
"I hope kids ... will go on to be the leaders, and push technology forward and do wondrous things in the future," Lee said.

Sleep remedies are available for those nights when falling asleep quickly just isn't happening
It's midnight when Ayana Pergadia, a senior from St. Louis, climbs into bed and forces her eyes shut. She is determined to sleep well for the first time all week. But this isn't even a remote possibility. She tosses and turns while her mind wanders. Anxiety builds as she tallies the tasks ahead of her. She thinks about what should have been done that day, what she needs to do the following day, and the day after that, and the day after. When she can no longer stand the sleeplessness, the only option is her mom's go-to remedy: warm milk. After guzzling down a glass of frothy goodness, she finally relaxes and returns to bed. It isn't long before her eyes get heavy, and sleep is finally within reach.
Warm milk may be Pergadia's go-to sleep remedy, but many other methods are available that are just as effective. Dr. Suzanne Stevens, M.D., director of the Sleep Medicine Clinic at the University of Kansas School of Medicine, gives us some insight into the effectiveness and side effects of common sleep remedies.
TAKING A DOSE OF NYQUIL
NyQuil is a nighttime cold medication, but it also contains alcohol. Taking a dose of this medication before bed is similar to taking a shot of liquor. NyQuil also contains an antihistamine, which is commonly found in over-the-counter sleep aids.
What side effects are associated with habitual use?
A psychological dependence may develop over time. You might start out only taking a dose "every once in a while", but end up feeling like you need it to sleep. Other side effects include dry mouth and a morning hangover similar to an alcohol hangover.
DRINKING ALCOHOL
Alcohol is a central nervous system depressant and causes drowsiness.
What are the side effects associated with habitat use?
The second half of sleep may become fragmented by alcohol consumption. This happens because it takes about four hours for the body to metabolize alcohol. After it is metabolized, the quality of sleep is compromised. This means you will wake up periodically and even be more likely to experience bad dreams.
TAKING MELATONIN PILLS
Melatonin is a chemical naturally released by the body. Starting about two hours before your usual bedtime, the brain will release melatonin. The peak of release is during the middle of the night, assisting with deep sleep, and the chemical is suppressed by sunlight during the day. You can also buy over-the-counter melatonin pills at most pharmacies.
A side effect of habitual use is grogginess in the morning.
DRINKING WARM MILK
It may be helpful, because there is a possibility that milk contains a small amount of melatonin and tryptophan, which are chemicals necessary for sleep. But most likely warm milk creates comfort and relaxation, which helps us ease into sleep.
What are the side effects of habitual use?
There are very few side effects, but drinking anything before bed may cause you to wake up frequently to use the restroom.
TIPS AND TRICKS FOR SOUND SLEEPING
Have a routine. As much as possible, get up approximately the same time, and go to bed at the same time each night. On weekends, try to stick within an hour of your weekday schedule.
Christian Vargas, Ph.D., licensed psychologist and outreach coordinator for the University's Counseling and Psychological Services program, tells us how to get a better night's sleep. She also suggests a visit with CAPS if sleeplessness is a major issue for you.
Sleep only when you are tired. If you have not fallen asleep within 20 minutes of getting into bed, get up and find something else to do. Read, talk to a friend, etc. until you feel tired enough to go to sleep. Staying in bed trying to force sleep can start to create the association of being in bed with frustration, not with sleep.
Use your bed for sleeping only. Watch TV, read and do homework in a separate location. Again, create the association of your bed with sleep.
Avoid taking naps. Research clearly indicates sleeping during the day will make it more difficult for you to fall asleep at night. If you are in the habit of taking naps, it may be difficult for the first few days, but it will be worth the effort.
Exercise on a regular basis. Exercise helps with many things, including reducing anxiety, improving sleep and increasing energy.
Avoid caffeine, alcohol, nicotine and street drugs before sleep and throughout the night.
Avoid bright lights. This includes television and cell phones, as they are stimulating.
Avoid bright lights. This includes television and cell phones, as they are stimulating.
Use some kind of relaxation method; this will calm your body and mind. Take a bath,
meditate, or write down your thoughts.
When should you consult a doctor?
Dr. Stevens tells us when sleeplessness is a medical concern.
Loud snoring and witnessed pauses in breathing can be a sign of sleep apnea, and should be evaluated by a physician.
Sleepwalking can be potentially injurious and needs to be addressed.
Severe daytime sleepiness can indicate an underlying sleep disorder and requires attention, particularly if you can't stay awake to study or to safely drive.

Argentinians look forward to new era of papacy
SOLI SALGADO
ssalgado@kansan.com
Father Agustin Fernandez watched the white smoke on his bedroom television in Buenos Aires' National Basilica of Luján. When "Habemus Papam"—"We have a pope"—was announced and followed by the name "Bergoglio", he leapt from his seat to scream the news out of his window. He knew that name and had met that man: the new leader of the Roman Catholic Church and the first from the Americas, Jorge Bergoglio.
"It is a great joy and pride to have a pope that was first our particular pastor, being a cardinal from Argentina," Fernandez said in an interview via email. "It is like an injection of hope and a breath of faith. We are seven priests in the Sanctuary, and they say that it is like a new dawn of the church in their lives because they know the life of HH Francis."
Agustin Fernandez, a Roman Catholic priest from Argentina, with fellow Argentinian Jorge Bergoglio, who was named the 266th pope of the Catholic Church. Fernandez said the selection of Pope Francis is "like an injection of hope and a breath of faith."
The 266th pope of the Roman Catholic Church, 76-year-old Jorge Bergolgio, named Pope Francis, succeeded Pope Benedict XVI, who was the first pope to resign in the past 600 years. Both Fernandez and Fede Levermann, a sixth-year seminarian in the province of Buenos Aires, met Francis on pilgrimages when he was still a cardinal in Buenos Aires. They said they found him reserved and humble, often refusing special treatment. He ate wherever a seat was available, cleared his own plate, got his own coffee and spent up to six hours hearing confessions.
ences, the reaction throughout Francis' home country was universal. Levermann said people of no faith were still moved to tears, that churches everywhere were packed for his inaugural celebration, and that even the smallest convenience stores brimmed with papal memorabilia.
This was the man putting Argentina on the world stage, a country that's roughly 90 percent Roman Catholic, but with a mere 25 percent practicing. Regardless of the people's religious prefer-
Pope Francis
"We were filled with pride that the Holy Father is one of us, and for many, because they have met him personally," Levermann said. "We felt joy knowing that his way of thinking is that of an Argentine; his concerns are that of an Argentine. Our country, as well as America as a whole, can rest assured that both our voices and way of living our faith will be known and taken into account in a special way in the Vatican."
CONTRIBUTED PHOTO
Up until Francis' papal election, Argentina's international recognition was limited to its two World Cup victories and creating the tango. Yet this developing country has a particular arrogance behind its patriotism, an inexplicable insistence that their country is always "number one." This national competitive spirit is now fueled with what they proudly feel is proof of their superiority, and Francis only encourages the popular joke, "God is Argentine."
"Humility" has indeed already
"The pope can be considered a typical Argentine in several aspects: his simple way of speaking, not too mindful of formalities, his taste for national traditions, especially soccer," Levermann said. "But on the other hand, we can see that the Holy Father is free from many defects very common in the Argentine people, and that is seen in his great sense of responsibility and humility."
become the buzzword to describe Francis, as his name refers to Francis of Assissi, who embraced a life of poverty. This was the earliest and most visible sign showing the world where his priorities lay. According to La Nacion, a Buenos Aires newspaper, his fight against poverty most closely defined his leadership, such as his involvement against drug and sex trafficking as well as specific consideration and outreach toward young catholics. With poverty as his primary interest, his relationship with Argentina's president, Cristina Fernandez de Kirchner, has always been tense. Kirchner portrays herself as a champion of the poor, so she and Néstor Kirchner, her husband and predecessor, often took Francis' public concern for the country's impoverished conditions as a personal attack on the presidency. Despite the stress his agenda caused the government in his home country, Francis continues to make the poor a priority.
he's to make hope that has been in the streets, who understands the problems of the simple individuals of God's people," Fernandez said. "He will know how to apply the catholic doctrine to the daily concrete actions that the common man can do."
Although Christian regions are quickly adopting more liberal lifestyles, including a recent fight for gay marriage. Pope Francis' progressive tendencies are restricted to his socioeconomic concerns.
"This pope from the new world will change his pastoral approach, but as far as doctrine, there is nothing to change, and he knows that," Fernandez said. "As far as interpretations and practice, [the Catholic Church] having had European
popes that looked more into the intellectual, this pope cares more about gestures and is more concrete through his works."
Both Pernandez and Levermann are confident that the pope's visible examples and deeds will be what most enhance the Catholic Church's image, and that there is no need to consider the widespread criticism that suggests a need for reformed social doctrine. "With few words, the pope is abundantly teaching us about our faith," Levermann said. "And non-believers are evangelized by being shown a church that suggests a different way of life, witnessed to the whole world beginning with the pope."
Argentina is more than aware of the sudden spotlight, and more importantly, of its potential. La Nacion observed that when Pope John Paul II from Poland was elected there was an international shift in attitude regarding socialism; now, a South American country so consumed in poverty is hopeful that, through Francis' papacy, they too can achieve a global empathy that could lead to prominent influence.
The same way the European culture greatly enriched the American culture, now the American culture can share its riches with Europe, especially its relationship with God way of living the faith," Levermann
said.
When the world sees Pope Francis, it's with the image of him waving to millions of hopeful Catholics, those excited but mainly curious about this new-world man. But when Argentina sees that man, he is Jorge Bergoglio: a man who refuses to fly first class, who has lived among the poor, who is still a fan of his barrio's soccer team, and who walked out at that balcony as an Argentine ready to lead the Catholic Church and ready to show his country one more way how they could, after all, be the best.

Men charged with distributing misbranded drugs worldwide
ASSOCIATED PRESS
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Demand for a synthetic marijuana concoction whipped up in an eastern Kansas warehouse became so high that suppliers had a hard time filling orders, federal prosecutors said in a 64-page indictment charging three men with distributing misbranded drugs to customers around the globe.
The indictment filed last week against Bradley Miller, 55, of Wichita; his brother, Clark Sloan, 54, of Tonganoxie; and Sloan's son, Jonathan Sloan, 32, of Lawrence, details a cat-and-mouse game between owners of a Lawrence herbal shop and state and federal authorities trying to keep up with a rapidly evolving synthetic drug boom.
"Cases like this are important because these are chemists making synthetic drugs and trying to stay ahead of state and federal laws," U.S. Attorney Barry Grissom said Thursday. "You have a scenario in which a drug is in question, legislation is advanced to prohibit the drug, and chemists around the country are smart enough to stay
ahead of the curve."
Miller introduced K2 as a product that could be sold at a Lawrence herb shop he co-owned, Persophone's Journey, in early 2009 after coming back from a trip to China, prosecutors said. K2 was
billed as a safe, legal alternative to marijuana and immediately became wildly popular because of its euphoric characteristics, relatively cheap cost and lack of banned substances that could be detected in drug tests.
The defendants also marketed a Chinese-made drug called queu She, which had
juana, Grissom said. But mislabeling drugs is a federal crime, and that spawned other charges against the men, including conspiracy, mail fraud, smuggling, distributing misbranded drugs and conspiracy to commit money laundering, he
been banned in the U.S., prosecutors said. The drug sometimes was labeled as a "health product" or "Garlic PE." when shipped to the U.S., they said, and advertised as "a revolution in weight loss" by Bouncing Bears Botanicals, a mail-order business owned by Clark Sloan and Miller.
The compound used to make K2 was not illegal when the men first started selling the fake mari

state charges
against his client over products sold at
his Lawrence shop had been
dismissed in the past.
"We are in the process of going through the indictment and will be pleading not guilty in court and challenging the allegations," Bath said.
Miller's attorney said he couldn't comment, and Grissom's office did not know Thursday if Clark Sloan had obtained an attorney. None of the men have been taken into custody.
Prosecutors said Miller initially manufactured K2 in his garage before expanding to a warehouse in Oskaloosa, where he could produce 5 to 10 kilograms per night but still not come close to meeting worldwide demand. At one point, the men were bringing in $150,000 a week from K2 sales, prosecutors said, and made about $3.3 million overall from the sale of K2 and Que She.
In August 2009, while promoting K2 at a trade show in Las Vegas, Miller and Jonathan Sloan handed out single-gram samples under a banner that read, "Smoke it, feel it, share it," prosecutors said. But after other participants at the show warned that marketing K2 as a smokable product was illegal, Jonathan Sloan had the banner taken down and afterward marketed K2 as "incense," according to the indictment.
The indictment includes email exchanges among the three men that suggest they knew their lucrative business venture probably wasn't going to last long.
In one such exchange, Clark Sloan sent an email to his son on Dec. 31, 2009, warning him that
efforts to ban K2 were heating up and they need to be careful, prosecutors said.
"I read just yesterday that law/ bill (whatever it is), that makes everything illegal if it is trying to simulate the illegal drug," the senior Sloan wrote. "If it wasn't for that, I'd say milk K2 for a few more months. $150,000 a week isn't too bad. And it keeps goofy up. So, get a couple million over the next few months. Then sell it at an 'enew higher price. But... Too scary. Not worth 20 years in San Quentin."
Instead of rushing to stop K2 sales, Jonathan Sloan testified Jan. 18, 2010, before the Kansas Legislature against a proposal to designate the chemical compounds used in making K2 as a Schedule I drug. During his testimony, Sloan said K2 had those compounds and insisted they had health benefits that include being useful for pain and insomnia.
Clark sent the men another email Jan. 27, 2010, telling them he had decided that selling fake marijuana went against the mission of Bouncing Bear Botanicals, which was to provide natural herbs to its customers.
"BBB is now just a huge drug dealer," he wrote. "When pointing out that the feds are breathing down BBB's neck, it is just 'we got a new synthetic we'll use, and just invent another fake drug.' ... I know that money looks good, but, I think it is walking a shaky line. Playing one step ahead of the feds is whacked out. They know who you are. They are watching you."

County jail starts a program to end graffiti
Undersheriff Danny Bardezbain said graffiti has been a problem for years, and that now nearly all of the cells at the 1,122-bed facility have been tagged. The walls of one cell feature a sweeping mural dotted with stars and swirling clouds, The Wichita Eagle reported. Other cells at the jail have been defaced with profanity, gang signs and references to the Ku Klux Klan.
WICHITA — The Sedgwick County Sheriff's Office has taken a tougher approach to graffiti at the jail by starting a cleanup program and threatening charges against inmates who mark up their cells.
ASSOCIATED PRESS
"There's about 1,100 cells that we have to clean up," he said.
Jail officials also have assigned an inmate the task of cleaning the walls and painting over the graffiti. The inmate spends minutes to hours scrubbing down each cell to remove as many pencil marks as possible. Each cell also takes up to another three hours to paint.
Jail officials hope that will change under new guidelines that include charging inmates with vandalism when they deface cell walls. Jail officials have also replaced inmates' pencils with a softer, flexible version that makes defacing jail property more difficult.
Recently that inmate finished a pod of cells, where fresh, gleaming off-white walls have been restored to every cell.
"This is the way I want all of the cells to look," Bardezbain said.

For Travis Marshall, a junior from Blue Springs, Mo., losing his hearing is not a concern.
"If hearing loss does affect me, it won't be until I'm much older," Marshall said. "I'll probably start losing my hearing anyway."
For Andrew Haase, a junior from Bates City, Mo., preserving his hearing is important, which is why he keeps his ipod at only 30 percent of the maximum vol-
Haase will sometimes pull out his earbuds and test if he can hear them to make sure the sound level isn't too loud.
"My family is from the rock'n roll generation, and their hearing is crap." Haase said. "I want to be able to keep my hearing as long as possible."

In this file photo, faces of Sandy Hook Elementary School victims are seen behind Sen. Dianne Feinstein. D-Calif., as she speaks about the Assault Weapons Ban of 2013. Congress returns today from a two-week spring recess with gun control and immigration high on the Senate's agenda. Senators could start debating Democratic-written gun legislation before week's end.

Senators lead push to tighten gun-control laws
ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON—Two influential senators, one from each party, are working on an agreement that could expand background checks on firearms sales to include gun shows and online transactions, Senate aides said Sunday.
If completed, the effort could represent a major breakthrough in the effort by President Barack Obama and his allies to restrict guns following last December's massacre of schoolchildren in Newtown, Conn.
Sens. Joe Manchin, D-WVa., and Pat Toomey, R-Pa., could nail down an accord early this week, said the aides, who spoke on condition of anonymity to describe the private talks. With the Senate returning Monday from a two-week recess, the chamber's debate on gun control legislation could begin as soon as Tuesday, though it might be delayed if the lawmakers need more time to complete a deal, the aides said.
Manchin is a moderate who touts an A rating from the National Rifle Association, which has opposed Obama's gun control drive. Toomey has solid conservative credentials and was elected to the Senate two years ago with tea party support from his Democratic-leaning state.
Expanding background checks to gun shows and online sales is one possibility that has been discussed, and the overall package, if completed, could still change, aides said. The senators are also discussing exempting transactions between relatives and temporary transfers for hunters and sportsmen, they said.
With conservative Republicans threatening a filibuster, Democrats will need 60 of the chamber's 100 votes to prevail. There are 53 Democrats and two Democratic leaning independents in the Senate.
A united front by the two lawmakers would make it easier for gun control advocates to attract support from moderate Democrats who have been wary of supporting the effort and from Republicans who have largely opposed it so far.
Lawmakers will also devote time to the 2014 budget that Obama plans to release Wednesday. It calls for new tax increases, which Republicans oppose, and smaller annual increases in Social Security and other government benefit programs, over the objections of many of the president's fellow Democrats.
The House returns Tuesday and initially plans to consider a bill preventing the National Labor Relations Board from issuing rules until a dispute over administration appointees is resolved.
Bipartisan groups in the House and Senate are expected to present legislation as early as this week aimed at securing the U.S. border, fixing legal immigration and granting legal status to millions who are in the United States without authorization. That will open months of debate on the politically combustible issue, with votes by the Senate Judiciary Committee expected later this month.
"He's been working with both sides to try to get the strongest bill we can that has enforceable background checks," White House se-
Also high on Congress' agenda is immigration, where a decisive moment is approaching.
After 20 first-graders and six elementary school staffers were killed at Newtown, Obama proposed applying the requirement to virtually all firearms sales. Gun control advocates consider expanded background checks to be the most effective step lawmakers could take to curb gun violence.
On Monday, Obama travels to Connecticut to again make the case for gun legislation, with a speech at the University of Hartford.
Federal background checks are currently required only for transactions handled by the roughly 55,000 federally licensed firearms dealers; private sales such as gunshow or online purchases are exempt. The system is designed to keep guns from criminals, people with serious mental problems, and some others.
nior adviser Dan Pfeiffer said Sunday on ABC's "This Week."
Asked about the potential compromise, Manchin spokesman Jonathan Kott said, "My boss continues to talk to all of his colleagues."
Other Obama gun control priorities include banning assault weapons and ammunition magazines with more than 10 rounds. Both bans are expected to be offered as amendments when Senate debate begins, but the assault weapons ban seems sure to be defeated and the high-capacity magazine prohibition also faces difficult odds.
Proponents say background checks and records are the best way to ensure that would-be gunbuyers' histories are researched. Opponents say the system is a step toward government files on gun owners and say criminals routinely skirt the checks anyway.
"I'm still hopeful that what I call the sweet spot — background checks — can succeed," Schumer said Sunday. "We're working hard there."
For weeks, Manchin has been part of an effort to craft a background check compromise, along with Sens. Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., and Mark Kirk, R-III. Schumer focused his efforts on conservative Sen. Tom Coburn, R-Okla, but those talks sputtered over Schumer's insistence on — and Coburn's opposition to — requiring that records be kept of private gun sales.
Toomey spokeswoman E.R. Anderson said she could provide no information.
In addition, the gun bill contains language by Schumer expand background checks to cover nearly all gun transactions, with narrow exceptions that include sales involving immediate relatives. Even without a bipartisan deal, Schumer is expected to expand the exemptions to more relatives, people with permits to carry concealed weapons and others.

In every post game press conference this season, a Jayhawk player mentions the routine, not pushing too hard to play outside their abilities and staying in the moment on the diamond and in the batter's box.
They're just trying to stick to the routine, not trying to do anything any differently than they've practiced all season to this point.
For the Jayhawks, the routine all came together in perfect time. The Jayhawks move to 18-12 after beating the 19th-ranked Oklahoma State Cowboys two games to one in this weekend's series at Hoglund Ballpark.
After game one, Coach Price couldn't have been happier.
"That may have been our best overall performance on the year;" coach Ritch Price said. "From our starting pitching to the way we swung the bats and how aggressive we were taking the outside fastball. Taylor was good which is what it takes to beat the number nineteen team in the country."
Taylor's solid performance landed him in sixth place on the overall strikeout list with 209 strikeouts in his career. His 105 pitches in seven innings got the Kansas pitching staff to its closers, who've been as good as any in the NCAA.
But it's all just a part of the routine. Ask the pitcher. You'll get the same answer.
"I'm just going to go out there and pitch when they tell me to pitch," Taylor said. "It's no different. I'm pitching against the same team, different day."
Taylor isn't breaking after his recent move from the Sunday slot in the rotation to the Friday night spot, which is typically reserved for the hottest pitcher in the lineup.
"I'm just trying to stay consistent, just see the ball hit the ball," Suiter said. "My first two hits were just little dinkers that I just built on from there."
The bullpen keeps trucking along as Jordan Piche' recorded his fifth and sixth saves in the series facing five batters and getting the jayhawks out of an eighth-inning jam in game one and facing 11 in game three.
Kansas' leading man at the plate, sophomore outfielder Michael Suiter, has hit .391 on the season with 43 hits and 14 RBIs. How do you get to that level at the plate?
Suiter recorded the first four-hit game of his career on a night that the Jayhaws looked nearly flawless in all aspects Friday.
"I'm just working to get back to the basics and go the other way," freshman designated hitter Jacob Boylan said. "You just have to be able to contribute. I haven't been able to do that the past couple weeks, but I can build on this definitively."
Even the rookies played well. To no surprise the freshmen understand the power of consistency.
No matter who you ask from top to bottom in the Jayhawk clubhouse, the song remains the same.
Stick to your routine. Don't try to push too hard and stay focused on the task at hand.
It worked against Oklahoma State.

KANSAS 3, OKLAHOMA STATE 2
BUNTING FOR BASES
Kansas clenches its first series win over a top-25 team in two years

TREVOR GRAFF
tgraff@kansan.com
Sophomore center fielder Joe Moroney catches a fly ball in the sixth inning of Friday's game against Oklahoma State at Hogland Ball Park. Kansas won Friday's game 7-5. Sunday's 3-2 win brought the Jayhawks their first series win over a top-25 team in two years.
The lajayhaws haven't felt this level of success since April 2, 2011 when they beat the No. 21 Baylor Bears in the first two games of their weekend series in Lawrence.
Kansas' 3-2 win over the 19thranked Oklahoma State Cowboys Sunday at Hoglund Ballpark sealed the team's first series win, its first over a top-25 school since beating Baylor back in 2011.
The Cowbys put up the first run of the game in the top of the first inning on junior first baseman Tanner Krietemeier's RBI double. The early run left many wondering whether Kansas had an answer after Saturday's 14-3 loss.
GEORGE MILLINIX/KANSAN
"That's what I'm most proud of",
coach Ritch Price said. "Just how
we bounced back with so much energy in the dugout. It starts with Wes Benjamin. Anytime you get a performance as poor as we had yesterday in every phase of the game, it starts with the
starting pitching and obviously with the double plays, our middle infield was huge."
"I like these one-run lead games. More pressure, I don't know there's just something about it. I enjoy competing in that."
The Jayhawks answered quickly in the bottom of the first by scoring their first of two runs on sophomore left fielder Michael Suiter's sacrifice bunt, the second of three consecutive bunts laid down by Jayhawk hitters in the first inning.
Sophomore right fielder Dakota Smith grounded out to Cowboys freshman second baseman Donnie Walton, scoring senior shortstop Kevin Kuntz and giving the Jayhawks a 2-1 head heading to the
top of the second inning.
"It was just another short-game execution that we practice all the time," Tharp said. "To get it down and execute it under pressure is a confidence builder for us."
Kansas' small-ball approach continued in the second with junior center fielder Tucker Tharp executing a squeeze bunt with runners on first and third that scored sophomore designated hitter Connor McKay.
The Jahawks took Oklahoma State sophomore left-handed starter Tyler Nurdin out of his rhythm in the first two innings, forcing him to field five buns early in the game. Sunday's focus on small ball is a topic of increased importance in Big 12 competition.
JORDAN PICHE junior closer
"When you play Big 12 teams, all the arms are power arms." Tharp
said. "To be able to execute bunts and get runners in scoring position is hue."
kept going."
The other topic dominating the Kansas clubhouse is the performance of the pitching staff coupled with solid defense.
wes threw great. He didn't have great command, but he grinded and did a great job. Coming off of that, it was easy to come in for those last three innings and close it down."
"I like these one-run lead games," Piche' said. "More pressure, I don't know there's just something about it. I enjoy competing in that. I just took it inning by inning, got the first one out and
Suiter recorded
Sutter recorded his sixth outfield assist in throwing out Cowboy senior shortstop Randy McCurry at the plate from deep in left field saving what could have been the tying run for Oklahoma State.
Piche' recorded his sixth save of the season in an extended, three-inning appearance in which he faced 11 batters giving up three hits and holding on to the slim 3-2 Kansas lead.
With a series win over a tough Oklahoma State squad in hand, Kansas looks to build on the momentum among the starting pitching staff.
In Sunday's series clincher, sophomore left-hander Wes Benjamin pitched six innings without the best command of his pitches, but still managed to give up just two earned runs on four hits with three strikeouts.
"After yesterday, we really talked about coming back and getting the momentum in our dugout again," junior closer Jordan Piche' said.
Coach Price said he plans to take junior starting pitcher Frank Duncan out of the weekend rotation. He wants to put him in the bulpen to regain rhythm and get him back to his original level of play.
"There's no depth to his change up, there's no depth to his breaking ball right now," Price said. "When he's good, he's locating down with action, and I think if we can pitch
him more than one time out of the bullpen, we can help him find himself and get him back in."
Price said he plans to pitch sophomore Robert Kahana in the Sunday slot in next weekend's series against Texas.
The Jayhawks are 5-4 in Big 12 play, two games behind conference leader Oklahoma. Kansas heads to Iowa City, Iowa for a mid-week two-game series against the University of Iowa Hawkeyes starting Tuesday at 6 p.m. at Duane Banks Field.

Freshman pitches first no-hitter

BRANDON SMITH/KANSAN FILE PHOTO
Freshman pitcher Kelsey Kessler pitched the Jayhaws' fifth shutout this season in a 9-0 victory over Baker University at Arrocha Ballpark on Oct. 3, 2012. Kessler pitched the first no-hitter of her career against Texas Tech on Sunday in Lubbock, Texas. Kansas won 4-0.
CHRIS SCHAEDER
cschaeder@kansan.com
A historic performance by freshman pitcher Kelsey Kessler on Sunday capped a winning weekend for Kansas as the lavahws swept Texas Tech in a
Kessler
three-game match at Rocky Johnson Field in Lubbock, Texas.
PENNIE MARSHALL
Kessler's first career no hitter came on the heels of Kansas' first
conference road sweep since April 2007 against Texas Tech, and was the first by a Kansas pitcher since Kassie Humphreys shew one on March 11, 2007 against New Mexico.
In a KU Athletics press release, Kessler seemed stunned by her dominating performance on the mound.
"I don't know if I feel anything right now," Kessler laughed. "I feel like I'm going to wake up in 30 minutes. But no, it was incredible. A no-hitter is as much as a team accomplishment as it was mine."
The final game of Sunday's 4-0 victory was close until the seventh inning, when the Jayhawks scored three runs on a Maddie Stein hit to left field that was mishandled by the Texas Tech fielder and cleared the bases for Kansas.
Kessler dominated on Saturday, pitching a complete game with four strikeouts and no earned runs. The shutout was the 11th of the season for the Jayhaws and coach Megan Smith was proud of her team's performance in a 3-0 victory.
Freshman shortstop Chaley Brickley hit her first career homerun on Saturday and sophomore third baseman Chanin Naudin also hit one to provide Kessler with the necessary run support.
"That's tough to do and that's a great offensive team over there," Smith said in a KU Athletics press release. "I thought they started to gain some momentum last night offensively, but Kelsey Kessler came out today and shut them out. She had a great performance today."
Kessler retired ten straight batters to end the game and give Kansas their second consecutive
victory of the weekend over Texas Tech.
Naudin also hit a big homer in Friday's game, as her third inning solo homer was the game winner in Kansas' 4-3 victory on Friday night. Alicia Pille started Friday's game on the mound for the Jahawks as she pitched 5.1 innings and recorded four strikeouts. Kessler came in with one out in the sixth to seal the game for Kansas and record her first save of the season.
The Jayhawks offense came out gunning with two runs in the first, one in the second and third innings to give them a 4-0 lead early on. Texas Tech stormed back with three runs in the sixth to cut the deficit to one, but Kessler stopped them dead in their tracks.
Pitching was the name of the game this weekend for the Jayhawks as they look to continue their outstanding play on Saturday when they travel to Greenville, S.C. to take on Furman University. The two teams will play a doubleheader on Saturday and one game on Sunday.

TRIVIA OF THE DAY
Q: How long has the American League used the designated hitter?
A: 40 years
MLB.com
---
THE MORNING BREW MLB should have more consistent rules
A
As a University student, I understand tradition is pretty cool. But sometimes "tradition" can be arbitrary and stupid.
When Major League Baseball's Houston Astros were sold to Jim Crane in November of 2011, the team switched from the ultra-traditional National League to the modernized American League.
By Dylan Lysen
dlysen@kansan.com
All right, neither is really all that modernized. But somehow the American League is more so than the National League — all because they have one simple player that only exerts effort on the field four times a game: the Designated Hitter.
So if MLB didn't have a problem destroying tradition to make more money, then they should have no problem with allowing the National League to adopt a designated hitter as well.
With the Astros' move to the American League, each league now consists of 15 teams, which means interleague play will now be a part of everyday life. Major League Baseball didn't have a problem destroying tradition by creating interleague play in 1997. Up until that point, an American League team didn't play a National League team until they met in the World Series. But this year, an AL and NL team will have to play each other every single day.
There will be some people that wish for this "tradition" in the National League to stay intact. These people are called "curmudgeons" and live in Tampa Bay, Fla. They have boring lives because they are old and retired. The way to make it less boring is by complaining about the second most boring sport in American culture (golf is clearly more boring).
These curmudgeon want baseball to stay the same as it was when they were
kids — when pitchers were also batters. The problem is that pitchers are no longer batters. Pitchers rarely get extensive training in hitting. Thus, there is a blackhole of a hitter on every single National League teams' lineup.
Even this past week as I watched Edwin Jackson pitch for the Cubs, the team's broadcast team, Len Kasper and Jim Deshaies, mentioned that Edwin Jackson became a pitcher because he couldn't hit very well. But wait, he pitches for a National League team and he's a starting pitcher. So he pitches (hopefully) at least six innings, and will have at least two at bats.
Those two at bats are completely worthless. The man who has to make those at bats even acknowledged that he's terrible at it. Jackson is not the only pitcher in the league to do this. Rarely does a pitcher try to be a good batter.
With interleague play happening every day now, the MLB is no longer two separate leagues with two sets of rules. It is now one giant league with two separate rules, but no real divider as to who gets what set of rules.
KU
If Major League Baseball is serious about modernizing the game, competing with the NBA and the NFL, it must change its way of thinking and either get rid of the DH in the American League, or add the DH to the National League.
Clayton Kershaw may have hit a home run last week, and Zack Greinke may really love to boast about his home run in Houston several years ago. But those are anomalies. Those instances are interesting because they never happen, and it will forever stay that way.
Babe Ruth may have hit a million home runs as a pitcher, but the game has changed and so should Major League Baseball. They can either keep touting its great "tradition" or join the 21st century with the rest of us.

Bartnovskaya rewrites school record again
CALVIN WHITNEY
cwhitney@kansan.com
Junior and 2013 indoor NCAA pole vault champion Natalia Bartnovskaya broke the school and meet record for the second week in a row. In the second meet of the outdoor season, Kansas saw NCAA top-10 performances in five events. The Kansas men's and women's track and field teams competed in the Sun Angel Classic on Saturday in Tempe, Ariz.
Last week, Bartnovskaya and senior teammate Christen Guenther cleared 4.31 meters (14'1.74") at the Texas Relays. On Saturday, Bartnovskaya again eased her way through the heights until she endered her day with a career-best and school record of 4.41 meters (14'5.5"). Guenther earned fourplace with a jump of 4.21 meters (13'9.75"). While only two meets into the season, Bartnovskaya's clearance is the third-best in the
NCAA.
Senior Heather Bergmann threw a top mark of 52.23 meters (171'4") on her last javelin attempt of the meet. This mark gave her a third-place finish. Bergmann's throw is only 16 inches short of her own school record and places her fourth in the NCAA rankings.
The women's 4x400-meter team had a great performance on the track. Denesha Morris, Diamond Dixon, Taylor Washington and Paris Daniels led from the gun. Daniels anchored the team to the finish line with a time of 3.32.26, beating second-place Arkansas by almost five seconds. This is the third-fastest time in school history and the eighth-fastest time in the NCAA this year.
The men's 4x400-meter relay team also grabbed their first win of the 2013 outdoor season. Kyle Clemons, Michael Hester, Michael Stigler and Kenneth McCuin finished with a time of 3:05.95. Mc-
Cun was able to hold a lead in front of the Sun Devils' anchor in the last 100 meters.
Junior Brendan Soucie clocked the best half-mile time of his career, finishing in 1:50.21 and fifth overall. This time is also the fastest 800 meters run by a Kansas male since 2005.
Junior Natalie Becker also had a career-best time in the 5,000-meter event, finishing 3.2 miles in 16:57.82. This time earned her the victory and is number seven on Kansas' all-time performance list.
The Jayhawks will be competing in the John McDonnell Invitational next weekend in Fayetteville, Ark. The invitational begins Friday with hammer throw and discus events and will conclude on Saturday. The Jayhawks will then return home for the 86th Annual Kansas Relays starting April 17.

Blackhawks rally and defeat Predators, snag playoff spot
ASSOCIATED PRESS
CHICAGO — Rookie Brandon Saad and Jonathan Toews scored 55 seconds apart midway through the third period, and the Chicago Blackhawks rallied to beat the Nashville Predators 5-3 on Sunday night to become the first team to clinch a NHL playoff spot this season.
Chicago (29-5-4) had fallen behind 3-2 early in the third on a goal by David Legwand, but Saad and Toews connected against Pekka Rinne to put the Blackhawks back ahead.
The Blackhawks defeated the Predators for the second time in two days and improved to 13-0-1 against Central Division teams.
Both teams skated without key forwards.
Andrew Shaw and Bryan Bickell also scored for Chicago, and Patrick Kane added an empty-net goal.
Nashville left wing Gabriel
Rinne, who leads the NHL in games and minutes played, made 35 saves as he appeared in his 29th straight contest.
Shea Weber and Nick Spaling each had a goal and an assist for the Predators (15-17-8), who are 13th in the Western Conference with 38 points, five behind eighth-place Detroit at the postseason cutoff.
Chicago's Ray Emery stopped 19 shots, following a 20-save, 1-0 win at Nashville on Saturday. The Blackhawks improved to 4-0 against the Predators this season.
The Blackhawks killed off the only penalty against them on Sunday and have snuffed 17 straight chances. Chicago hasn't allowed a power-play goal in 10 games, dating to March 18.
Bourque, who is tied with Legwand for the team lead with 11 goals, missed his fourth game because of an upper body injury. Mike Fisher, third on the Predators with 19 points, sat out after aggravating a hand injury that caused him to miss three games last week.
Patrick Sharp, who led the Blackhawks with 33 goals last season, missed his 14th game with a shoulder injury. Dave Bolland sat out his second because of a lower body injury, believed to have been caused when a shot by Webe struck him last Monday.
The Blackhawks dominated the first period, outshooting the Predators 17-7. But a turnover by defenseman Johnny Oduya in the slot set off a scramble that led to Spaling's goal that made it 1-1 with 2:44 left.
Michael Frolik jumped on a rebound that Rinne had deflected to the left boards, then turned and fired on goal in one motion. Shaw, who had slipped behind defenseman Roman Iosi and parked in front, deflected the puck over Rinne's shoulder.
The Blackhawks entered the game as the third-least penalized team in the NHL, training the New York Islanders and Rangers.
Shaw opened the scoring 6:34 in on a tip-in.
Weber tied it at 2 just over three minutes later, when he fired from the top of the right circle directly from a faceoff win by Spaling. Weber's high screened shot beat Emery on the stick side.
Bickell, who scored Chicago's only goal on Saturday, put the Blackhawks back in front 2-1 at 2:09 of the second.
Legwand scored on a rebound to put Nashville ahead 3-2 at 6:54 of the third to cap a scrum around the

Chicago net.
Emery stopped Weber's shot from right wing and Matt Halischuk stuff-in attempt from the left side, but Legwand popped in a loose puck from the crease.
Saad tied it at 3 at 9:37 from 10 feet. After fanning on the first shot attempt, defenseman Duncan Keith swept in and fired a shot that Rinne blocked. Saad converted the rebound.
Toews put Chicago ahead 4-3 at 10:32. Kane outraced two Predators to a loose puck on the back boards, then centered to Toews, who connected on a low shot from the right circle.
Kane's goal with 32 seconds left completed the scoring.

Billy Butler's grand slam seals victory over Phillies
GORDON 4
Kansas City Royals' Alex Gordon (4), Jeff Francoeur (21) and Jarrod Dyson (1) celebrate after Philadelphia Phillies' Erik Kratz struck out to end the in the ninth inning of a baseball game yesterday in Philadelphia.

PHILADELPHIA — Billy Butler hit a grand slam that was confirmed by video review and tied a Royals franchise record with seven RMIs, and Kansas City held on for a 9-8 win over the Philadelphia Phillies on Sunday.
Butler's fifth-inning homer, the first slam of his career and the first ever allowed by Philadelphia left-hander Cole Hamels, put Kansas city ahead 6-4.
James Shields (1-1), acquired in an offseason trade with Tampa Bay, earned his first victory as a Royal. The right-hander gave up hits to five of the first six batters in a four-run first innning, but settled down to blank the Phillies for the next five innings on five hits while striking out eight and walking none.
Butler came through with the bases loaded again in the sixth, hitting a two-run single off Chad Durbin. With the hit, Butler became the 12th Royals player have seven RBIs.
Chris Getz opened the fifth with a double to right. Alex Gordon reached on an infile single and Alcides Escobar walked to load the bases and set up Butler.
Hamels (0-2) appeared visibly upset throughout the inning, perhaps disagreeing with some close balls and strikes calls by homeplate umpire Eric Cooper. His mood didn't improve when Butler launched a 1-0 fastball just over the metal fence that tops the green padded wall in left field. The ball hit off a wall behind the field wall and bounced back into play.
The umpires originally ruled that the ball hit off the top of the wall before going to replay to confirm that it was a homer.
The Phillies looked on their way to the loss trailing 9-4 entering the ninth before rallying.
Jimmy Rollins hit a three-run homer to right off J.C. Gutierrez. Greg Holland relieved Gutierrez
with one out in the ninth. He got Chase Utley to pop out to center before singles by Ryan Howard and Michael Young, who had four hits, put runners on first and second with two outs.
Kansas City manager Ned Yost then lifted Holland, who blew the save in Saturday's 4-3 loss to Philadelphia, and replaced him with right-hander Kelvin Herrera to face pinch-hitter Layne Nix.
Nix singled home Howard to pull Philadelphia to 9-8 and Young and Nix advanced to second and third on a wild pitch. But Herrera struck out Erik Kratz in nine-pitch at-bat to earn his first save.
The Phillies struck out 14 times Sunday.
Slow start weighs down golf team at N.C. tournament

The Kansas men's golf team is finding consistency, just not in its purest form. The team is a middle-of-the-pack connoisseur and solidified that identity again this weekend with a seventh place finish at the Irish Creek College in Charlotte.
The team shot a three-round 872 (297)(287)(288), digging itself a hole the first round of the tournament and making it tough to gain ground on the field from its initial 13th-place start.
"We made boyes and double bogeys in the last few holes that first round," coach Jamie Bermel said. "Guys hitting balls in the water, you just can't do that."
Despite the opening day blunders, the team was able to bounce back for the remainder of the week.
end, thanks to seniors Alex Gutshea and Chris Gilbert. Gutshea got his second top-10 finish of the year with a ninth place finish while Gilbert earned his third straight top-20 finish. Gilbert's round was the team's second best, but Bermel still saw room for improvement.
"Chris didn't put it very well by his standards, he had a few three pumps out there," Bermel said. "Other than that he played pretty good — just his putter was cold."
Bermel was pleased to solidify a fourth spot on his lineup, however. Ryley Haas' scorecards counted for each round of the tournament — enough for Bermel to make space for the junior transfer going forward.
"He will be in the lineup for sure"
Bermel said.
The clock is ticking for the jay-
hawks though, and Bermel's to-do
list for improvement remains fairly long. The team has yet to net a top five finish in 2013, but Bermel still believes the team is making progress.
"We are getting better and we've got a long way to go but we are on the right track," Bermel said. "It was a pretty good field down here but I think we are moving in the right direction."
The Jayhawks may have a long way to go, but not to the postseason. The Jayhawks have one tournament left, The Hawkeye/Great River Entertainment Invitational, before the Big 12 Championships on April 22. The Jayhawks could easily improve though, as the team finished last in the Big 12 tournament last year.

Kansas rowers go 4-6 in races against Indiana, Georgetown
STELLA LIANG sliang@kansan.com
The Kansas rowing team won four of six races against Indiana and Georgetown in Bloomington, Ind. The two losses came in the first and last races of the day.
The regatta started with the novice eight race. Both Kansas novice eight boats fell to the Indiana boat.
The Jayhawks earned their first win in the third varsity four race. Like the previous race, it was a matchup between the Jayhawks and the Hoosiers, with Georgetown not participating in the first two races. This win was the beginning of the four-race winning streak.
The second varsity four race followed. The Jawahry boat finished
with a time of 8:54, making it the fastest four boat of the day. The second varsity four rowers were senior Emily Starr, junior Carley Iverson and sophomores Angie Flores, Andrea Joyce and coxswain Sarah Lasni. The third win came in the first varsity four race.
"We have pretty good team depth and that showed again today," Kansas coach Rob Catloth said in a Kansas Athletics news release. "Team-wise we continue to show some good depth and strength in the fours."
The Kansas second varsity eight boat continued its recent hot streak with its fourth win in a row with a time of 7:47.4. Rowers in this boat were seniors Danielle Adam and Cheyenne Verdoorn, juniors Caty
Clements and Amanda Lewis and sophomores Julia Avery, Erin Brogan, Jenni Hartzler, Jade Lambkins and Claudijah Lever. Clements was the coxswain.
The day ended with Kansas placing second behind Indiana in the first varsity eight race. Kansas and Georgetown battled hard for second place.
Kansas, Indiana and Georgetown competed on Lake Lemon in Bloomington on April 6. This was the first meeting between Kansas and each of these teams. Next up for the Jayhawks is the Knecht Cup in Camden, N.J., on April 13-14.

BACK TO BASEBALL BASICS
Jayhawks bunt their way to series victory over No. 19 Cowboys
BLAKE SCHUSTER
bschuster@kansan.com
By about the bottom of the third inning it didn't matter much what pitch, or pitcher. No. 19 Oklahoma State threw at Kansas.
The Jayhawks' small ball eliminated every opportunity for the Cowboys' defense to stop a Kansas team clawing its way above .500 in conference play.
And with the Jayhawks reaching base, Kansas coach Ritch Price could care little about how far the
ball was flying.
"We only have three home runs for the season," Price said. "By design, we tried to execute the short game."
The design: If a man gets on, bunt. If you can move him over, bunt. And if all else fails, bunt again.
In the bottom of the first inning, sophomore infielder Justin Protocio made a bunt from senior infielder Kevin Kuntz to move into second. One batter later, Sophomore outfielder Michael Suiter knocked
Protacio home on another bunt after the Cowboys' senior third baseman Robbie Rea overthrew junior first baseman Tanner Krietemeier.
The next pitch, senior infielder Alex DeLeon used a sac bunt to move Kuntz and Suiter into scoring position, which set up sophomore outfielder and pitcher Dakota Smith's ground out to second base for an RBI.
Oklahoma State's starting pitcher, sophomore Tyler Nurdin, entered Sunday's meeting with a 2.45 earned run average and a team-
leading 30 strikeouts, which probably would have fared well if the Jayhawks were given the sign to swing away.
But no such call was made and the Jayhawks kept the Cowboys' infield moving throughout the game.
Price noted the small-ball style takes a pitcher out of his rhythm. His players proved him right.
"When you play Big 12 teams with power arms, to be able to execute buns and get runners in scoring positions is just huge," junior center fielder Tucker Tharp said.
Tharp speaks from experience. He knocked in the eventual winning run with, of course, a sacrifice bunt in the bottom of the second.
"When you execute the short game it's pretty fun to watch it unfold," Tharp said. "It goes south for the other team."
It's a game plan the Jayhawks are sure to recycle. Since the start of the Big 12 season, Kansas has batted .232 with 58 strikeouts, the second most in the conference, and the least amount of walks, with 19.
For the Jayhawks to stay above
500, it won't matter how they get on base, so long as they do.
"Before we even stretch," Tharp said. "That's the first thing we work on."
The entire clubhouse understands the importance of bunting. It has found a new spot in the jayhawks' pregame routine.

Boston Red Sox Will Middlebrooks celebrates in the dugout after hitting a home run off Toronto Blue Jays pitcher Dave Bush during seventh inning AL baseball action in Toronto yesterday.
Red Sox steamroll Blue Jays in shut-out rout
ASSOCIATED PRESS
TORONTO — Will Middle-brooks hit three home runs, two off NL CY Young Award winner R.A. Dickey, and the Boston Red Sox routed the Toronto Blue Jays 13-0 Sunday.
Middlebrooks went 4 for 5 with four RBIs. He hit two home runs off Dickey, a two-run shot to right in the first inning and a solo drive into the second deck in left in the fifth. He connected again off Dave Bush with a leadoff longball to left in the seventh, the first three-homer game of his career.
Middlebrook, who doubled and scored in the third, fled out to the warning track in his final at-bat in the eighth.
Mike Napoli added a two-run shot, and Jacoby Ellsburg and Daniel Nava also went deep as the Red Sox connected for six homers and set season highs for runs and hits (15), one day after getting just two hits in a 5-0 loss and set season highs for runs and hits (15), one day after collecting just two hits in
a 5-0 loss.
Nava went back-to-back with Middlebrook's in the seventh, a homer that bounced off the top of the wall in center field and went out. It's the first time this season the Red Sox have hit consecutive home runs.
Ellsbury had three hits, including a leaoff homer into the second deck in right in the eighth, his first. Three batters later, Napoli capped the rout with a home run to center, his second. He finished with four RBIs.
Boston jumped on Dickey in the first, scoring five runs before the knuckleballer had recorded an out.
Ellsbury led off with a double, Shane Victorino singled to center and Dustin Pedroia drove in a run with a groundball single through the right side.
Napoli hit a two-run double and Middlebrooks followed with a first pitch homer to right.
struck out to end the inning.
Even the outs Dickey got were loud. Nava and Jarrod盐alamachia each flied out to the warning track before Jackie Bradley Jr.
Dickey (0-2) allowed eight runs — seven earned — and 10 hits in four 2-3 innings. It was his shortest start and the most runs hed allowed since giving up eight runs in four 1-3 innings of a 14-6 loss at Atlanta last April 18, when he pitched for the New York Mets.
The five first inning runs allowed by Dickey matched the amount he gave up in the first inning in all of 2012, when he made 33 starts.
Red Sox left-hander Jon Lester (2-0) allowed five hits, all singles, in seven shutout innings. He walked none and struck out six, improving to 6-2 with a 2.13 ERA in his past nine starts at Rogers Centre.
Clayton Mortensen pitched the final two innings for Boston.
Blue Jays slugger Jose Bautista was held out of the starting lineup, the third straight game he missed with a sore right ankle. The two-time major league home run leader twisted his ankle stepping on first base while beating out a double play in the eighth inning last Thursday.

Despite loss, Shockers reload for next season
NCAA BASKETBALL
ATLANTA — There's no way Wichita State is going to shock anybody next season.
The gritty team from the Missouri Valley was picked to finish somewhere in the middle of the conference this year, a fairly safe guess considering the Shockers lost all of their starters from a team that earned a No. 5 seed in the NCAA tournament last season.
But with an entirely new group running the show, coach Gregg Marshall's crew slowly came together this season, picking up steam once they got healthy late in the year and getting on the kind of roll that Butler and VCU made famous before them.
ASSOCIATED PRESS
The result was Wichita State's first trip to the Final Four since 1965.
It ended with a blown second-half lead and a disheartening loss to Louisville on Saturday night, but with leading scorer Cleanthony Early and several other key contributors returning, it's a good bet the Shockers will be tough again next season. It's an even safer assumption that their opponents will be ready for them.
"But we didn't say, 'Good bye,' Marshall said. "We didn't say, 'This is it!' This is just the beginning. This is just a beginning for us. A lot of good players in that locker room, all they're talking about right now is working hard this summer and getting better."
"You know, it's hard to lose your last game. Everyone does it except for three or four tournament winners," Marshall said. "This one is especially hard because of the run we went on. We set a school record for wins, in the Final Four for the second time in school history.
The Shockers' tremendous run is sure to make Marshall a hot
coaching candidate, but the former coach of Winthrop has said repeatedly that he's happy in Wichita, and that it would take the right opportunity at just the right time to ever pry him loose.
Especially with the kind of momentum the Shockers are riding.
They beat VCU early in the year, knocked off Creighton — the pride of the Valley most of the year — in
a mid-season tilt at Koch Arena in Wichita, and then squeaked into the tourney as a No. 9 seed paired in the same region as Gonzaga, the No. 1 team in the AP Top 25 at the end of the regular season.
The Shockers wound up losing 72-68, sending Louisville into the title game against Michigan.
"You know, it's hard to lose your last game. Everyone does it except for three or four tournament winners."
Wichita State managed to take a 26-25 lead over Louisville at half-time and extended it to 12 in the second half, only for the Cardinals' intense full-court pressure to finally set in.
They rolled through Pittsburgh, and then raised eyebrows when they busted brackets with a win over the 'Zags. They headed to Los Angeles for the West Regional semifinals and took care of La Salle, and then held off Ohio State down the stretch to reach the Georgia Dome.
The Shockers were never intimidated, though, and they proved the stage was never too big for them.
It looked for a while as if their dream run would continue, too.
But there's plenty of production coming back, led by Early, the junior forward who made just about every power conference coach look silly for overlooking him coming out of junior college when he had 24 points and 10 rebounds against the Cardinals in the national semifinals.
"We have to be appreciative and understand what it takes to get here," said Fred VanVleet, who along with fellow freshman Ron
Baker was critical to the Shockers postseason charge.

stead — whose poise was so crucial in March — will be gone. Role players Ehimen Orukpe, Demetric Williams and Kadeem Coley will also move on with their lives.
Baker finished with 11 points and eight rebounds for the Shockers, Tekele Cotton — just a sophomore — had nine points, and VanVleet wound up playing 23 minutes in the Final Four.
The Shockers' heart and soul, all-energy forward Carl Hall, will have graduated, and senior guard Malcolm Arm-
It's a huge stepping-stone and something we can look back on and work for", VanVleet said. "Guys that are coming back, now we have motivation for next year because no matter what, we can sit back and say. 'We didn't make it.' So that will be good motivation for us"
There will be pieces to replace, of course. There almost always is.
All of them will be back, none of them sneaking up on anybody.
"We're still not satisfied," Cotton said. "We're going to come back next year, come at it again, and work hard during the summer and get better. We'll get right back here next year."

AUBURN HILLS, Mich. — Brandon Knight scored 20 points Sunday night to help the Detroit Pistons snap an 18-game losing streak against the Chicago Bulls with a 99-85 victory Sunday night.
Jonas Jerebko added 17 points and a season-high nine rebounds for the Pistons, who ended an eight-game home skid.
Pistons break 18-game losing streak in 99-85 victory over Bulls
The Bulls led by as many as 11 points in the first quarter but Detroit gradually caught up and took the lead in the second half after starting the period on a 12-4 run.
Carlos Boozer had 21 points and 10 rebounds for the postseason-bound Bulls, who are fighting to secure the fourth seed in the Eastern Conference. Nate Robinson added 18 points and Jimmy Butler scored 14 as Chicago's two-game winning streak ended.
The Pistons took a 50-46 lead to intermission and pushed it to as many as 10 in the third quarter. Knight scored a dozen points in the period. Detroit scored the first four points of the fourth and never let the Bulls get closer than 10 points the rest of the night.
Rodney Stuckey had 14 points and rookie Andre Drummond added 10 rebounds for Detroit.
Laul Deng, the Bulls' leading scorer and the NBAs leader in minutes per game, missed the game with a sore hip. Coach Tom Thibodeau said the decision to bench him was "precaunition"
Chicago's Joakim Noah, who missed eight games with an injured right foot, and Marco Belinelli, who was out seven with an abdominal strain, each returned Sunday night.
The Bulls were aiming to match
the franchise record for consecutive victories over an opponent, which also was against the Pistons. Michael Jordan's 1990s teams won 19 in a row against Detroit.
The Pistons treated home fans to their first win since the All-Star break. They hadn't won at the Palace of Auburn Hills since Feb. 13.

Kansas falls to Baylor and TCU in weekend play
TYLER CONOVER
transover@kensan.com
fconover@kansan.com
With an 0-3 record in Big 12 play, the Kansas tennis team traveled south to take on two nationally ranked teams with hopes of making up ground in the rest of the conference. Unfortunately for Kansas, the road trip yielded two losses.
Needing a win in conference play to keep early hopes alive, Kansas was unable to clamp down on No. 42 Baylor or No. 35 TCU. Falling to 0-5 in Big 12 play the Jayhawks have a lot of work to do, but there were some good things to take away from this road trip.
For the second time this spring, the Jayhawks defeated an International Tennis Association-ranked singles player. On Friday, Maria Belen Luduea bested ITA No. 120 Victoria Kisaleva (4-6, 3-1) to earn one of the two points in the 5-2 loss. The other point came from freshman Anastasia Trubica, who downed Maria Biryukova (6-3, 3-1).
The Jayhawks never were able to establish a presence in doubles play as the team was swept 3-0.
On Sunday, Kansas was in Fort Worth, Texas, and the Horned Frogs were not in a playful mood as TCU dispatched Kansas 7-0. The pace started rough for the Jayhawks, who lost two of the three doubles matches on the way to surrendering all six singles matches, two of which came at the hands of ITA top-120 players. The lone victory came from Paulina Los and Ludueña, who have been consistent this year, but the rest of the doubles play has been suspect since conference play started.
Now riding a 19-game conference losing streak, the Jayhawks will aim to regroup and erase that number when Texas comes to Lawrence on Friday. Kansas needs a home game to notch that elusive first Big 12 victory of the spring. The match is at 2 p.m. at the Jayhawk Tennis Center.

Clippers beat Lakers 109-95 to win first Pacific Division title
NBA
ASSOCIATED PRESS
LOS ANGELES — Chris Paul held up the red T-shirt reading 'Can't Stop Los Angeles' for a quick post-game photo. He didn't put it on, and neither did his Clippers teammates.
There was no celebrating on court or in the locker room after they beat the Lakers 109-95 on Sunday to clinch the Clippers' first Pacific Division title in franchise history against a team that has long overshaded them.
"It just feels like something we were supposed to do," said Paul, who had 24 points and 12 assists. "it means we headed in the right direction. We're not satisfied. We understand this is something small compared to the big picture."
Blake Griffin had 24 points and
12 rebounds as the playoff-bound Clippers swept the Lakers 4-0 for the first time since Donald Sterling bought the team in 1981.
The 1974-75 team, known as the Buffalo Braves, had the franchise's other sweep of the Lakers.
Fans chanted, "Sweep! Sweep!" in the closing seconds.
Sterling accepted a congratulatory handshake from a fan after the game.
"It's always good to sweep a team in your division, in the West," said Griffin, savoring the first division title of his young career. "I'm proud of how we won the game a little bit differently. We kept up a nice tempo the whole game."
Jamal Crawford had 20 points off the bench, DeAndre Jordan had 13 rebounds and Caron Butler scored 14 points for the Clippers, who
knew that even if they lost, they could have clinched later Sunday if Utah won at Golden State.
"We didn't want to do it that way," Paul said. "We wanted to clinch on our own terms."
As the division winner, the Clippers are guaranteed a top-four seed but will only open the playoffs with home-court advantage if they finish the season with a better record than the team in fifth, which currently is Memphis.
Clippers coach Vinny Del Negro said, "You have to earn it and today we did."
"Hopefully, we're playing well at the right time going to the playoffs," Crawford said.
He chalked up winning the division title at home against the Lakers to "the basketball gods set it up that way."
Dwight Howard scored 25 points, including 9 of 13 free throws, for the Lakers, who played without injured starters Steve Nash and Metta World Peace. Kobe Bryant added 25 points, 10 assists and seven rebounds, and Pau Gasol had 12 points and 13 rebounds as the Lakers' three-game winning streak ended.
Playing as the home team, the Clippers dealt their Staples Center co-tenant's playoff hopes a serious blow.
The Lakers fell into a tie with Utah for the eighth and final playoff berth in the West. If the Jazz won later, they would move a half-game ahead of the Lakers, who have five regular-season games left. The Jazz own the tiebreaker with the Lakers.
"We've got a bigger challenge than worrying about beating the

Clippers in one game," Bryant said. "They obviously performed extremely well against us all four times. Our concern is playing well in order to get into the playoffs, get guys healthy, and go in there and see what we can do."
"They made some pretty tough shots, and they had players come in and make some big baskets under duress?" Bryant said. "They kind of kept us at bay and they would get some turnovers and get out in transition."
The game featured three of the
NBAs top-five dunkers in Griffin, Howard and Jordan. They all got some alley-oops in, although the Clippers' usual Lob City show didn't emerge in force until the fourth.
That's when Paul fed Griffin on a fast break late in the game and Griffin raced in for a one-handed jam. Paul stole the ball from Howard and sped up court before flipping it to Jordan for a monster slam.
"That's how we're supposed to play," Jordan said. "As long as we bring that type of energy from jump ball to the end of the game, we'll be OK."
The Clippers stretched a seven-point halftime lead to 14 points in the third on a 3-pointer by Butler after leading 56-49 at halftime.

Cincinnati defeats Washington 6-3 during opening-week play
ASSOCIATED PRESS
CINCINNATI — Johnny Cueto outlasted Stephen Strasburg in a highly anticipated matchup of young aces and Jay Bruce drove in three runs as the Cincinnati Reds wrapped up an impressive opening week homestand with a 6-3 win over the Washington Nationals on Sunday.
Cueto needed 108 pitches to get through six innings, allowing seven hits and three runs. He walked three and struck out six. Aroldis Chapman allowed one hit and had two strikeouts in the ninth for his second save.
Bruce, Shin-Soo Choo, Xavier Paul and Brandon Phillips each had two hits to back Cueto (1-0) and help the Reds win the rubber match of their three-game series with Washington. They finished
Strasburg (1-1) allowed nine hits and six runs with four walks and five strikeouts in 5-1 3 innings. He threw 114 pitches, 73 for strikes.
The Reds knocked Strasburg out with a three-run sixth. Rookie Derrick Robinson, called up on Wednesday to replace the injured Ryan Ludwick, led off with his first major league hit, a sharp one-hop just out of the reach of diving third baseman Ryan Zimmerman.
4-2 at home against the Nationals and Los Angeles Angels, two teams expected to contend this season for post-season berths.
Robinson went to third on Choo's single to center and slid across the plate with the go-ahead run just ahead of second baseman Danny Espinosa's throw on Paul's fielder's choice.
Both runners moved up on Joey Votto's chopper to Strasburg and Phillips singled to left through the drawn-in infield to drive in Paul
and end Strasburg's day. Ryan Matteus relieved Strasburg, and Bruce greeted him with a run-scoring infield single to shortstop Ian Desmond.
The duel between the two right-handers nearly fizzed early.
Strasburgh allowed as many hits in the first inning Sunday as he did while throwing seven shutout innings against Miami during a 2-0 win in Washington's opener on April 1. Four straight runners reached base, including Paul and Phillips with infield singles and Bruce with a bases-loaded, two-run double. Phillips scored the Reds' third run of the inning on Todd Frazier's groundout.
The Nationals immediately tied the score in the second on Desmond's double to left-center, Danny Espinosa's walk and Kurt Suzuki's 357-foot home run into the left field seats.

Knicks continue streak in victory against Thunder
ASSOCIATED PRESS
OKLAHOMA CITY — Driving to the basket in crunch time, Raymond Felton slipped to the floor and lost the basketball in the process. All he could do was lunge back at it and bat it toward J.R. Smith as the shot clock ticker closer to zero.
For the second straight possession, Smith beat the buzzer — this time with a 3-pointer — and the Knicks closed out a 125-120 victory against the Oklahoma City Thunder on Sunday.
"He makes plays like that. He makes tough shots. Sometimes I think he likes to take the tougher shot than the easier shot. They still go in," said teammate Carmelo Anthony, who had 36 points and 12 rebounds while moving ahead of Kevin Durant to become the NBAs top scorer.
"That shot, it was a nail in the coffin," Anthony said.
Smith finished with 22 points, including the two biggest shots of the game. He connected on a 23-foot jumper from the right wing as the 24-second clock expired to put New York up 117-113 with 1:30 to play, then swished a 3-pointer with 56.8 seconds left that all but sealed New York's 50th win of the season.
"It was just a freak accident, a great play," Felton said. "I slipped, knocked the ball to him and he did the rest. He knocked down the big shot."
The victory was the Knicks' 12th in a row and put them at 50 wins for the first time in 13 years. They also moved $2\frac{1}{2}$ games ahead of Indiana for second place in the Eastern Conference and moved onto the doorstep of clinching the Atlantic Division title.
Russell Westbrook had 37 points, 11 rebounds and eight assists for Oklahoma City, which fell a game behind San Antonio for first place in the West with five games left.
The Thunder had gained control of the race for first by beating the
Spurs but were unable to complete a three-game sweep of San Antonio, Indiana and New York in a less than 72-hour span.
"We're good. We've got five more games to go," said Durant, who scored 27. "We lost a tough one.
This team, they shot the ball well tonight. They hit some tough shots all night. We forced them to shoot some tough ones and they hit them.
"You've got to tip your hat to them, but other

Anthony's scoring average improved one-tenth of a point to 28.44, while Durant's stayed about the same at 28.35.
close it out.
Anthony, playing at Oklahoma City for the first time since April 2010, added to one of the more colorful histories of any visiting player despite failing to extend his run of 40-point games to four. He tied Bernard King's Knicks record with three in a row, going for 50, 40 and 41 in his previous three games.
"This is probably one of the biggest wins we've had in a long time," Anthony said. "Just for the simple fact that it's on the road, it's against a great Thunder team. We've been playing well. For us to come out
Anthony hit game-winners in the closing seconds of Denver's only two games at Oklahoma City in 2009, then was knocked unconscious in the third quarter before returning in the fourth as the Nuggets rallied to win the 2010 game.
CARMELO ANTHONY
New York Knicks forward
He had missed his final chance with the Nuggets after his sister's death and then sat out last season's meeting because of wrist and ankle injuries.
This time, he came up with a season-high nine offensive rebounds as the Knicks amassed 23 points off of 19 offensive boards. Anthony's last three baskets came on tip-ins. He twice put back his own misses, then tipped in Smith's missed free throw in the final minute to help
here and keep our composure and win on the road and win here — this is a tough place to win."
It was just the sixth home loss for the Thunder, who snapped a string of 21 straight games at
Chesapeake Energy Arena that had been decided by double digits — 18 wins, three losses.
New York had a season high in scoring and the most points of any Thunder opponent this season, getting 16 from Felton, 15 from Tyson Chandler 14 from Jason Kidd and 14 from Chris Copeland.
"They're hot," Durant said. "Carmelo was hitting shots over Serge (Ibaka) with a hand in his face, he was meeting him at the rim. He was missing, but he was getting those tips, and they were hitting 3s. We were down two and I.R. Smith hit two tough jump shots in a row. I think our defense was good, as far as putting a hand up."
Anthony's relentlessness on the boards paid off. He twice stretched one-point leads with tip-ins of his own misses before Smith finally provided a bigger cushion. On one of the offensive rebounds, Anthony chipped one of Chandler's teeth.
He attributed his strong play to being healthy again, after missing time this season with finger, ankle and knee injuries, and being motivated by the approaching playoffs.
"It's the end of the season, the last month. Everybody's fighting for spots. The playoff's are right around the corner," Anthony said.

Brandon Woodard, senior from Topeka, is majoring in Political Science. He is a member of Delta Lambda Phi, pledge class president freshman year, and served as vice president of the fraternity in the past. He is involved with SUA, participated in KU dance marathon and participated in LeaderShape, an interactive six-day leadership enhancement program in 2011.
Blaine Bengtson, junior from Salina, is majoring in Public Administration and Environmental Studies. He is a member of Phi Delta Theta, was director of Recycle and Blue KU last year and is a current intern for KU Center for Sustainability. He also participated in LeaderShape.
UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN: Why do you want to be Student Senate president or vice president?
BW: Coming in as a student leader that was pretty involved but didn't know a whole lot about Student Senate, I was able to bring a lot of ideas on how we could better connect Student Senate to the student body. And from that, I found my passion and ran for VP and am able to serve in that role this year. I think that because I am so passionate about serving students, I think there's a lot of work that can still be done to further the mission of student senate and really help students at KU.
BB: My first experience with Student Senate has been this past year, and I'm acting as a current senator. Before that, I didn't have a very broad knowledge of Student Senate, but once I found it, I fell in love, and I think that the impact that Student Senate can have for students is really broad, and I want to be able to contribute to that and serve my fellow students. The opportunity that we have every year to come in and look at the University and make it better than when we found it is something that Student Senate can do, and I hope to be able to do that as vice president.
UDK: What do you think are some of the greatest strengths of KU students?
BW: I think that the atmosphere is something that is so vibrant. We have an amazing basketball team, we have an amazing program for academics throughout the University, we have a national debate team. We have so many different things that KU students excel at, and I think

Marcus Tetwiler and Emma Halling, students running as Ad Astra’s presidential and vice-presidential candidates, talk about what they hope to bring to the campus and the student body if the pair’s coalition is elected to Student Senate.
Marcus Tetwiler, is a junior from Paola majoring in History and English. He is a member of Beta Theta Pi, holds a rush chair position, has held a social chair position and has been involved in Rock Chalk Revue for three years. He is a member of Student Senate, holds the title of transportation coordinator and served as a replacement senator as a freshman. He is involved in various community service projects and has been a part of KU Alternative Breaks.
Emma Halling, a junior from Elkhart, Ind., is majoring in American Studies and Women’s Studies. She’s the current treasurer of the Commission on the Status of Women, a member of Amnesty International, a member of the scholarship hall community, the current secretary of Student Health Advisory Board and a member of the Emily Taylor Advisory Board.
University Daily Kansan: Why do you want to run for Student Senate president and vice president?
MT: I think that the reason I want to run for student body president is that I'm the type of guy that if I see a problem that I have the power to fix, it really fires me up, and it makes me excited to try and fix that. Ad Astra has been a really great opportunity to be involved with individuals with perspectives that I don't have. I've tried my best to surround myself with people that are leaders already in their communities that really I haven't had much experience with, and I think that's a quality of leadership, surrounding yourself with individuals who are already doing great work and have great ideas. Bringing new ideas and fresh faces and energies and actual diverse representation to Student Senate is something that really keeps me fired up day after day throughout the campaign.
EH: I got involved in Senate kind of indirectly. I started out with the Commission on the Status of Women as the treasurer, and we had to go to Senate to ask for money to fund all of our events. When we were asking for money, I got really interested in following the money and seeing where it came from. So, on that note, I became a citizen member of the finance committee. From there, I became the associate finance senator. I've gotten really interested in the inner workings of Senate and finding out how that money is distributed, especially for health services on the Health Advisory Board.

Adults more likely to text and drive
EMILY DONOVAN

Adults are more likely to text while driving than teenagers, according to a survey conducted by AT&T<sup>2</sup>.
About 49 percent of more than 1,000 surveyed adults admitted to texting while driving, compared to 43 percent of more than 1,000 surveyed teenagers surveyed last April. The popularity of texting while driving, said Nicole McCroskey, isn't surprising.
Supremo Anuja Croci from Ottawa, texts and drives on her way to the store. In 2011, at least 23 percent of all accidents involved someone who was texting while driving, which is about 1.3 million crashes, according to textinganddrivingsafeft.com.
Although her parents lecture her about concentrating on the road while driving, McCroskey, a freshman from Overland Park, is never taken aback when she catches her mom hypocritically texting while driving. The urge to immediately reply to her cellphone, McCroskey said, is an automatic reaction, even though she admits to laughing at and criticizing other drivers seen on their phone behind the wheel.
RHIANNON ROSAS/KANSAN
"I don't think people should text and drive, but that makes me a hypocrite because I text and drive," McCroskey said.
McCroskey would be among the 98 percent of the survey responders who admitted to texting while driving that said doing so is unsafe.
"I put my phone on top of my steering wheel and text while I'm kind of looking at the road in the background while my phone is in the foreground". McCroskey said. "I'm pretty sure everyone does that."
Kansas Statute 8-15,111 prohibits drivers from reading or sending any written communication, including text messages, instant messages and email. The law, however, makes exceptions: drivers can access their contact list to make a phone call, use navigation applications and even receive and read information related to safety alerts, weather alerts and traffic alerts.
Although it's a primary law, meaning that McCroskey could be pulled over and issued a $60 fine for texting and driving without having to be caught in any other violation, the law has so many exceptions that Sergeant Trent McKinley, Lawrence Police Department's Public Affairs Officer, may not pull a driver over even if he sees she is on her phone. Even when next to another car at a stoplight, McKinley said it's difficult to be certain a driver is texting rather than doing something exempted without sitting in the same vehicle and literally looking over her shoulder.
"If I'm going to stop you, I want to have some reasonable suspicion that you're violating the law," McKinley said. "For me to stop you and then find that you were looking up your mother's telephone number at work, I would have potentially made a mistake in stopping and detaining you."
Furthermore, asking for a search warrant to verify, Sergeant McKinley said, may not be reasonable if a driver were to deny having texted and driven after being pulled over for a minor traffic violation. While Kansas is one of 39 states that ban text messaging while driving, only 10 states hand banded cellphone use altogether.
"All of us will agree that mobile devices like that — whether it be a GPS, a cellphone, any other electronic device that requires your attention — if you're giving that device attention, you're not giving the road and other things the level of attention that you should," McKinley said. "It definitely creates a distraction, and those distractions are dangerous."
Virginia Tech Transportation Institute estimates that text messaging while driving increases the risk of crashing 23 times than when
driving while not distracted. In 2010, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration reported that 18 percent of crashes that caused fatality or injury was caused by driver distraction.
"People text and drive because they don't think that it can wait. McCroskey said.

Thatcher remembered as more than a politician
ASSOCIATED PRESS
LONDON — Margaret Thatcher was not just a political titan, she was a cultural icon — skewed by comedians, transformed into a puppet and played to Oscar-winning perfection by Meryl Streep.
With her uncompromising politics,ronlad certainty,bouffant hairstyle and ever-present handbag,the late British leader was grist for comedians,playwrights,novelists and songwriters whether they loved her or — as was more often the case — hated her.
SATIRICAL TARGET
Thatcher's free-market policies transformed and divided Britain, unleashing an outpouring of creative anger from her opponents. A generation of British comedians, from Ben Elton to Alexei Sayle, honed their talents lampooning Thatcher.
In the U.S., "Saturday Night Live" got in on action — albeit more gently — making the Iron Lady the subject of several skits. In one of them, Monty Python member Michael Palin played the prime minister shortly after her election in 1979, poking fun at her helmet of hair.
MUSICAL OPPOSITION
Pop was political in Thatcher's day, as the bitter social divisions of the 1980s sparked an angry musical outpouring.
"Whenever I'm asked to name my greatest inspiration, I always answer 'Margaret Thatcher,' musician Billy Bragg, one of her most vocal opponents, said in 2009. "Truth is, before she came into my life, I was just your run-of-the-mill singer-songwriter."
Bragg was a member of the 1980s Red Wedge movement that campaigned against Thatcher and the Conservatives and for the Labour Party.
LITERARY INSPIRATION
Thatcher has made appearances in several novels written or set in the 1980s.
— forms the dizzying pivot of Hollinghurst's tale of 80s power and excess.
She was a major, though mostly unseen, in Alan Hollinghurst's Booker Prizewinning 2004 novel "The Line of Beauty," set during the height of Thatcher's rule. The prime minister's appearance at a Conservative lawmaker's party — where she sends the crowd into a tizzy and dances to the Rolling Stones with the novel's young protagonist — forms the dizzying pivot of
STAGE AND SCREEN STAR
Thatcher's transformation into a stage and screen character started not long after she took office.
The most acclaimed recent screen Thatcher was Streep's turn as the politician looking back on her life in the 2011 film "The Iron Lady" Streep won an Academy Award for a performance that humanized a divisive character.
"It is hard to imagine a part of our current history that has not been affected by measures she put forward in the U.K," Streep said. "But to me, she was a figure of awe for her personal strength and grit."

that just the quality of saying that you're a Jayhawk truly exemplifies the community that we have as Jayhawks. I think that every student at KU has an opportunity to make their academic career whatever they want it to be. I think we have a unique situation that you can come to KU and say, 'I want to do this', or X, Y, and Z, or myself — I want to run for student body president. As a freshman, I never would have thought that was ever possible, but because of the community that KU has, I think that it's a really positive environment for doing whatever you're passionate about.

BB: I think when you arrive on campus, there is this atmosphere where you think, 'Man, I'm at a flagship university, I'm at a research one university', and there are so many important things going on at KU, and I have the opportunity to contribute to that. And whether it's like Brandon said, being in Student Senate or running for student body vice president or it's doing research in a biology lab or a greenhouse or something, there are just so many opportunities at KU to contribute in such a positive way, and I think that is so unique and we should not ever take that for granted.
UDK: What do you think some weaknesses of KU students are?
BW: One thing that I see, which I see as an opportunity for us to work on if elected, is that at the University, we have over 20,000 students. We have almost 600 student organizations that are registered through Student Involvement, but it seems like you see the same people involved in everything. I think that while it's a great opportunity that you can get involved with whatever you want, I think we really need to truly engage
students. Because if you get involved with whatever you passionate about or you get involved in undergraduate research or research at the graduate level, it's something that's going to lead to you to stay at the University. In a time where the University is facing retention issues at times and enrollment, I think that we really need to be focused on how can we get quality layhawks here and how can we keep them here. And so I think that's not necessarily a negative quality, but I think something we can really work on is engaging more students.
BB: I think I'd tie my weakness back into the strength in that trying to find a way to make sure that every single student that walks onto KU embraces the fact that we do play an integral role in not only Kansas and not only the region, but in the United States and the world. Getting every student in every department and from all walks of life to embrace that fact will really enhance the University and I think that we have certain groups of students who really take that on and fulfill the responsibilities associated with that. Making sure everyone is embracing that responsibility to the fullest will make the University much better in the long run.
UDK: If you're elected, what do you think that you two can do to bolster some of these weaknesses, make them stronger, but also to highlight the strengths that you talked about?
BW: I can not only use my own personal experience of someone that as a freshman, lived off-campus, wasn't involved in anything first semester, and didn't know anyone, came to class and went home and napped or went to work. I can use my own experiences to reach out with the University administration as well
as other student organizations and things like that to engage those students. Also, I think that we can really use what we've learned over time in our experience within Student Senate, Student Senate is such a powerful entity and a body that represents so many students that I think that we could expand our horizons and expand our reach to further enhance the University
AD ASTRA FROM PAGE 1A
I'll use the example of sustainability because I'm so close to it everyday, and I think that KU makes a commitment to sustainability by making sure that every student realizes that KU is prioritizing. That is one example of a way in which students should really be engaged on all different fronts. And when KU, as a leader amongst other universities, takes on an issue like sustainability, I think that embracing it from the fullest is crucial, and it takes embracing it from the top all the way to the bottom via administrators, seniors, juniors and freshman who have just arrived on campus. I think Student Senate in the capacity not solely sustainability, but with every issue in Student Senate, has such a wide reach and we have 20 percent representation with students on every board or committee at this university and student senators and board members and committee members have that opportunity to really influence those things and make the priorities that need to be made very prevalent and a way to have an impact through those.
UDK: Can you tell us about some of your personal strengths and weaknesses as leaders?
BW: I'm very driven. I think that it speaks a lot that I've been financially independent on my own since I was 16. I was able to provide for myself through part of

UDK: What do you think some of the greatest strengths of KU students are?
EH: I think KU students are No. 1 in terms of coming together from different places across campus in the face of adversity. As Ad Astra, we have picked student leaders from across campus and asked them, "You've had to experience budget cuts on a minor level because Senate has been cutting the funding of large groups; how do you think that you can apply that toward an administration? How do you think that you can use your expertise of operating under a budget crunch within Senate?" I think we have such a great resource that's untapped right now of student leaders who know how to function, who know how to get kids to meetings and who know how to spend money wisely, and I think bringing those students into Senate is exactly what Ad Astra is about.
MT: I think the greatest strength of our student body is the desire to leave our community better than we found it. Through Ad Astra I've been really moved by some of the individuals who have come forward who have really great, positive ideas that have, maybe not been neglected from the Student Senate process before, but haven't quite felt engaged. Ad Astra has really been moved by bringing these individuals to the table, and it's something that I'm very passionate about in being the lason of their voices at that top level. There are a lot of students on campus that haven't been a part of the Student Senate system before, but I think they have leadership qualities that are absolutely representative of a Student Senate that Ad Astra wants to represent.
UDK: What do you think some weakness-?
re?
es are?
EH: I think the fact that for the past several years voter turnout has been abysmally low is a massive weakness of the student body. It wasn't a decision made by each student on this campus to be disengaged; it was the fact that they didn't know where to go, didn't know that there were alternatives in terms of democracy, and didn't feel engaged in the system because the prevailing attitude has been, 'Why should I vote?' 'What's possibly going to change?' or, 'I don't know anything about Student Senate.' I think that has been changing already with Ad Astra and with our democratic reforms. We're looking at increasing voter turnout so that students aren't only active within our community here, but so that they're prepared to go on into the real world and be active citizens and vote in their local elections, vote in the national election, and just be more engaged as citizens overall.
MT: I think that the biggest problem is that there are gaps between our communities and it seems like we have these constructed barriers even though we all have mutual aspirations to leave the entire University better than we found it. We want the same thing, we're fighting for the same goal, but there are barriers between the scholarship hall community, between the Greek system, between residence halls, between non-traditional students. These barriers are constructs, these barriers are stereotypes and these barriers are reinforced by lack of engagements from something like Student Senate. I think Student Senate can be a mechanism to bridge that gap between these communities. We need to bridge the gap not only from an executive
administration, from that administration to the senators. I wager that most KU students don't know who their senator is who's representing their community. That's a problem, and that's a problem with how we as a Senate organize ourselves and engage those constituents. I'm not just talking about during election year when there's a party that's relying on that person's vote. I'm talking about engaging that person throughout the year. I think we need a proactive, engaged Student Senate to bridge those gaps between the communities and between the structure from Senator, to representative to the top of the ticket.
**UOK:** What are some of your best personal leadership qualities, but also some of your weaknesses as a leader?
MT: It's been a really positive experience, but certainly one of the things that has definitely been a detriment in terms of my leadership, I'm not very good at delegating down sometimes. I think I'm a little bit too much of a perfectionist in that I really want to be included on every little aspect of what the campaign is up to. I guess maybe I'm a little bit too "micromanagey," but I think that's because I'm just really a passionate leader who is excited about the people involved within our campaign. It's definitely been a team effort, certainly you can't do it by yourself, but that's something that's been a fun transition for me to depend on others throughout this whole process.
EH: For me personally,
I think that my greatest
strength as a leader is that

Kansan endorses Ad Astra for Senate
After hearing two different visions for the future of campus and the student body, the University Daily Kansan has decided to endorse Ad Astra in its bid for student body presidency.
The reasons are simple enough, and Ad Astra's Marcus Tetwiler and Emma Halling seem like the right choice for the campus, community and students.
Ad Astra's vision of the future is not one of multimillion dollar projects or sweeping reforms. Rather, Tetwiler and Halling, along with the diverse cabinet of rivals behind them in the Ad Astra organization, see that the devil is in the details.
Ad Astra's platform pieces, which include the elimination of transcript fees, the freezing of tuition for transfer students, the elimination of a sales tax on textbook purchases and the transformation of student government culture (among others) are all small-ticket items. And yet, when weighed against the proposed $20 to $60 million aquatic center from KUnited, which seems inappropriate in a time of increasing austerity, these issues seem plausible, achievable and effective.
Each platform item presented by Ad Astra applies to a large segment of the student body, and each is within the grasp of the Student Senate to obtain and enforce. On top of that, each platform item is relevant in some way to students' lives. These are not simply campus beautification projects or cursory bones thrown to the students. Rather, they are well-conceived, targeted programs with specific goals and stated means.
KUnited's platform ideas lack the connection to the wider student population present in Ad Astra's campaign. In addition to the proposed aquatic center for the Ambler Student Recreational Fitness Center, KUnited intends to adopt an honor code, provide more money for printing during the semester and establish campus as a smoke-free environment.
There are several glaring problems with these proposed measures. For one, the University already has an aquatic center. It's in Robinson. And if you happen to enjoy a good lap or two, you already know that and use this resource.
Second, a University-wide honor code seems like a bunch of
hot air. It would not create a more just student body. It would not create a more unified campus. It would simply serve as another set of rules or procedures for incoming freshmen and established upperclassmen to ignore.
Third, while making campus a smoke-free environment is an admirable undertaking (at least for non-smokers), it is simply unfeasible. It would be a tremendous waste of the University's resources to combat smoking all over campus all the time. And besides, enforcement would be problematic, if not entirely impossible.
KUnited's printing policy is the only platform item that tangibly benefits students in a meaningful way. However, in a side-by-side comparison with Ad Astra's student outreach platform items, KUnited's attempt to pander to the populace falls flat on its face. The numbers don't lie. Improving textbook prices is far more beneficial to students than more printing.
Aside from the problems with its platform, KUinited's presidential candidate, Brandon Woodard, has served as vice president before. His election would mark
the first time in University history that a vice president in student government has ascended to the presidency, and such a move would speak volumes to KUnited's political monopoly.
This is where Ad Astra's commitment to changing the culture of student government shines. KUinited, in its 20-year dynasty, has become a political machine that fights for its own survival, maintenance and control.
KUnited has lost its sense of service to the students in the same way a monopoly loses its sense of service to its customers. In a way, KUnited demonstrates the weakness of a one-party system: Once that party is in power, and once competition falls by the wayside, the incentive to fulfill the responsibilities of office falls as well.
Thus, a change in this culture would return power to the represented constituents. Ad Astra is running on a platform of, "Please, if you can beat us in an election, do so." It understands that the key to effective governance, even at the often-overlooked university level, is competition. Tradition is great and all, but dynasties are not always the best choice for
the people they represent. The crucible of competition forges not only change, but progress.
Speaking of which, the student body has some changes to make on its own. Voter turnout was an abysmal 8 percent last year. That means only 1,575 of the 19,695 students in the undergraduate population made their voices heard. And with this paltry offering of ballots, student government makes decisions that affect tuition, services and resources available to students.
So, regardless of the Kansan's endorsement of one candidate over another, consider that these student elections mean something. They are not arbitrary or pointless. Voting, one way or another, makes those in power hear the voices of those they represent. And you never know — if you don't vote, you might end up paying for a multimillion dollar swimming pool, even if you don't know how to swim.

Kansas government gets it right by supporting families
As employees across the U.S. scrambled to file taxes before April 15, the Kansas House of Representatives last week decided to support the state's low-income residents. The House rejected a proposal to reduce the state Earned Income Tax Credit, right recognizing that state aid to low-income workers is worth upholding.
P
The Earned Income Tax Credit is a federal tax refund, established in 1975 with the goal of reducing the tax burden on low- to moderate-income workers. Those individuals send in their tax returns April 15, but the EITC offsets their income and payroll taxes. This means those individuals either pay very little in taxes or receive a refund. According to John Wanchek, Coordinator of the EITC Outreach Campaign at the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities, 25 million families or individuals received the credit in 2007; of those, the average refund for families with children amounted to $2,659.
It's impossible to examine government support for low- and moderate-income individuals without discussing the EITC. To qualify, individuals with children must make less than between $36,920 and $45,060 per year, depending on the number of children. The limit for married workers raises $5,000. A tax refund once a year allows those individuals to make decisions to fix cars, buy clothes for their children, pay off credit cards and ensure their families can make it through another year. In a January 2012 interview with the Topeka Capital-Journal, Alice Lieberman of the University of Kansas School of Social Welfare explained that typically individuals receiving the credit must spend it immediately to pay for necessities, guaranteeing state economic stimulus.
By Amanda Gress agress@kansan.com
For my fiscaly conservative readers, the program's reward for individuals to find work has historically gained it support as an alternative to other forms of financial assistance. Ronald Reagan made the EITC
permanent in 1986, famously declaring it "the best anti-poverty, the best pro-family, the best job creation measure to come out of Congress." A measure committed to encouraging individuals to work would seem to have a good chance of withstanding onslaughts from increasingly conservative Kansan lawmakers.
While the EITC is a federal program, Kansas is one of 25 states to also provide a state EITC to offset the cost of state taxes. The Kansas Center for
"...Kansas is one of the 25 states to also provide a state [Earned Income Tax Credit] to offset the cost of state taxes."
Economic Growth reported that 17.4 percent of Kansan families (211,262 families total) received the EITC in 2010. A wide range of national studies have already demonstrated the program's effectiveness in lifting individuals out of poverty, promoting educational success of children whose families benefit from the credit and encouraging individuals to work.
Despite that track record of success, Kansas Senate Vice President Jeff King proposed cutting the state EITC by half. The rationale? Kansas tax revenue following massive income tax cuts has proven insufficient to fund the state government. Another program providing property tax rebates to seniors, low-income families and individuals with disabilities is on the chopping block, and the savings from the EITC could fund it.
keep their homes is a worthy enterprise, but that doesn't mean the solution is to set groups of individuals receiving financial assistance against each other. Senator King's measure passed the Senate on a voice vote, even though strong conservatives joined with moderate Republicans and Democrats to block the measure. Opponents argued that the cut in benefits would have an enormous impact on the families affected, and that lawmakers should not choose between deserving and necessary programs.
Fortunately, Representative Richard Carlson, head of the House Taxation Committee, rejected the proposal, meaning that the EITC will remain through this April 15. Whether it will be considered at a later date is yet to be determined — and it is worth noting that in 2012 Governor Brownback also tried to eliminate the program.
Obviously, allowing financially challenged individuals to
It's easy to forget about the budget processes in Topeka, or better yet, to just fault all levels of government for failing to fix problems — leaving roads unfixed, children uneducated, individuals unemployed or the sick untreated. When something goes right, it ought to be celebrated. Last week, Kansan legislators decided that support for one out of every five Kansas families through the EITC was upward holdings. That's something we should all be proud of, and something that deserves our continued attention as lawmakers continue to sort out the state budget going forward.

Victoria's Secret line won't corrupt preteens
W what happened to sexy and smart? If you have hurt
If you have kept up with the latest drama relating to advertising exploitation, then you have heard of the parental outrage with Victoria's Secret Pink Spring Break line, "Bright Young Things." The controversy began when Amy Gerwing, a conservative mother of seven, wrote how appalled she was that Victoria's Secret was launching a new line aimed at preteens and young teenage girls in an article for The Black Sphere.
Gerwing's attack targeted the idea that companies such as Victoria's Secret sexually exploit young girls through advertisements and use of products. However, I disagree, and I am calling out to the women of the University to think about this. If you participated in the KU Victoria's Secret Pink Spring Break Party at TCBY/Mrs. Fields on Massachusetts Street, you should have received a, "Bright Young Things," brochure introducing the clothing line complete with coupons.
The brochure had pictures of what many parents considered racy underwear with sayings such as, "Wild Thing?" "Call Me," and "Feeling Lucky?" To me, these phrases were appropriate because Victoria's Secret markets its Pink line toward older teenagers and college-aged women. In fact, I did not own a piece of Victoria's Secret clothing until I was in high school. So, what is the bie deal?
According to the outraged parents, Victoria's Secret now seeks to target younger girls. A restricted R-rating warning parents and guardians they must keep children under 17 away from Victoria's Secret accompanied Gerwing's article. Multiple news sources and publications jumped on the story including Huffington Post, Telegraph and jeebel.
Gerwing's article prompted Rev. Evan Dolve to write an open letter to Victoria's Secret dictating his stance on how he wants to raise his 3-year-old daughter away from the commercialized and sexualized world of clothing. He says he wants his daughter's toughest decisions to be which college she attends and which social issue she advocates

for, not which underwear will make her more attractive to her partner.
I applaud his inclusion of all types of relationships, but why should women only be concerned with sexy or smart? Why can't we be both?
Roy Raymund opened Victoria's Secret in 1977 in order for men to feel comfortable purchasing linereg for their women. Today, Victoria's Secret sells a wide range of products including swimsuits and the famous yoga pants. Each product focuses on the idea that women can feel sexy in every aspect of life.
Perhaps commercialization has overstepped its boundaries in marketing beddazled underwear, emblazed with cheeky phrases. Maybe it is a sign of our capitalistic society that women feel sexy when they adorn their matching undergarments. Nevertheless, who says we can't wear them under an oxford and slacks while running our own company? Why does sexy automatically imply stupid?
The truth is, it doesn't. Parents are joining in fear that their daughters are going to end up corrupted by pandies when they should be wondering if they are doing a good job raising their children. If they don't want their daughters to wear Victoria's Secret Pink's clothing, they don't have to buy it. They can control the amount of exposure their daughters have to Victoria's Secret advertisements.
As for us, college women,
remember we have a choice to
wear what we want. Personally,
I know I will be making a stop at

KURT IS MY HE
MISS U KURT DA
MCCLATCHY TRIBUNE
"Miss U Kurt" is among the messages left on a bench in Viretta Park along Lake Washington next to the home where Kurt Cobain and Courtney Love lived and Cobain took his own life. His stature as a song writer/performer/poet remains undiminished.
Kurt Cobain's death, legacy still fascinate after 19 years
TAM DEHART
tdehart@kansan.com
Something about the way Kurt Cobain played his guitar had the ability to captivate a youthful audience. It became apparent in the early '90s, when his band, Nirvana, began to influence the young adult population of the world.
Cobain, the grunge-rock band's frontman, was born in Aberdeen, Wash., to a waitress and a mechanic. It was not long before he discovered his artistic talents. Cobain began playing instruments early in his youth. In 1985 he met Krist Novoselic, and the two formed Nirvana in 1987 with drummer Aaron Burkhard. The sounds of Nirvana, like those of many other bands from the grunge era, are passionate and full of raw emotion.
What set Cobain apart from so many other musicians, however, was his intense, withdrawn personality. He was also a known heroin addict and struggled with addiction through most of his short life.
Nirvana's final studio album, "In Utero," and the birth of his only daughter, Francis Bean, whom he fathered alongside fellow musician Courtney Love, Cobain found himself entering a depression. Signs of this depression had been evident for years before 1994. In 1989, Cobain had an on-stage breakdown toward the end of Nirvana's European tour, and in the Rolling Stone article "Inside the Heart & Mind of Nirvana," by Michael Azerrad, Cobain expressed a strong desire to take a break from touring and after-show parties.
Then, on April 5, 1994; Cobain joined the so-called "27 Club" after he shot himself with a shotgun at his million-dollar home on Lake Washington.
The 27 Club features members, all popular musicians, who died at age 17. Other members of the 27 Club include '60s singer Janis Joplin, guitarist Jimi Hendrix, Rolling Stones founder Brian Jones and The Doors vocalist Jim Morrison as well as many other musicians. Singer Amy Winehouse joined the 27 Club when she died in July 2011.
But there is still something
that sets Cobain apart from the other members of the club. Kurt Cobain's death incorporates some closure. The other musicians, whose deaths were accidental, were unable to articulate their feelings and leave something to be remembered by other than their music.
Cobain's suicide note, which was read aloud to a mourning crowd at the Seattle Center five days after Cobain's death, describes his feelings toward his career.
"I haven't felt the excitement of listening to as well as creating music, along with really writing for too many years now. I feel guilty beyond words about these things." Cobain wrote. "For example, when we're backstage and the lights go out and the manic roar of the crowd begins, it doesn't affect me the way it did for Freddy Mercury, who seemed to love and relish in the love and admiration from the crowd."
This note as well as Cobain's withdrawn personality and struggle with addiction have been a source of interest for the past 19 years.

Annette Funicello dies from MS complications
NEW YORK — She was the first crush for a generation of boys, the perfect playmate for a generation of girls.
Annette Funicello, who became a child star as a cute-as-a-button Mousekeeteer on "The Mickey Mouse Club" in the 1950s, ruled among baby boomers, who tuned in every weekday afternoon to watch her on their flickering black-and-white television sets.
Then they shed their mouse ears, as Annette did when she teamed with Frankie Avalon during the '60s in a string of frothy, fun-in-the-sun movies with titles like "Beach Blanket Bingo" and "How to Stuff a Wild Bikini!"
Funicello died on Monday at Mercy Southwest Hospital in Bakersfield, Calif., of complications from MS, the Walt Disney Co. said. She was 70.
Decades later, she endeared herself to baby boomers all over again after she announced in 1992 that she had multiple sclerosis and began grappling with the slow, degenerative effects with remarkably good cheer and faith.
"She really had a tough
existence," Avalon told The Associated Press. "It's like losing a family member. I'm devastated but I'm not surprised."
Outgrowing the kid roles by the early '60s, Annette teamed with Avalon in a series of movies for American-International, the first film company to exploit the burgeoning teen market.
After that, she had no interest in edgier, more "adult" roles.
"People are more interested in changing my image than I am," she said in an interview. Scripts were sent to her, and "I read the first 10 pages and I'm a prostitute or a doper, and I fold them up and send them back."
When her MS was finally diagnosed, she later recalled, "I knew nothing about (MS), and you are always afraid of the unknown. I plowed into books."
She gradually lost control of her legs, and she feared people might think she was drunk. So she went public with her ordeal in 1992.
She wrote of her triumphs and struggles in her 1994 autobiography, "A Dream is a Wish Your Heart Makes" — the title taken from a Disney song. in 1995, she appeared briefly in a television

docudrama based on her book. And she spoke openly about the degenerative effects of MS.
"My equilibrium is no more; it just progressively getting worse," she said. "But I thank God I just didn't wake up one morning and not be able to walk. You learn to live with it. You learn to live with anything, you really do."
In 1965, Funicello married her agent, Jack Gilardi, and they had three children, Gina, Jack and Jason. The couple divorced 18 years later, and in 1986 she married Glen Holt, a harness race-horse trainer.
After her film career ended, Funicello devoted herself to her family.

lenge; it was to leave this campus a better place than I found it, which is why I decided to run with KUnited, because they have been doing exactly that for 19 years now. Moving forward, the initiatives we are running on that I really feel will leave a true lasting impact on our campus are: building a pool for the rec center, renewing the water fountains on campus with water bottle filling stations, and creating a smoke free campus. These improvements would better our campus both now and for years to come. And continue to make our campus one that I will be proud to show off to my children... a good forty years on down the road.

AD ASTRA FROM PAGE 3A
Not submitted:
Zunwu Zhou, Ad Astra
make a decision because I don't want it to be my ideas. I want to make sure that it's actually a group idea that's being represented. As a vice president, literally within Senate, your job is to recognize people as speakers on the floor. I don't just want to recognize people. I want to empower them behind the scenes so that they feel empowered so that they'll speak up and asked to be recognized in the first place. I'm a 'speak up even if your voice shakes' person, but admittedly, my voice does shake when it comes to that.
UDK. One of your platforms is opening up student body access to Student Senate. Is this something you're still focused on? If you are, what are some of the things you're seeing that students would want to talk to you about?
MT: I think just from my experience, there's a lot of students who are surprised real what student fees even are and that they're paying for them, and that they already have really incredible services available to them within that package. Immediately, I think we need to be proactive in engaging those students and opening our doors through social media, through Facebook, through video. We can really have some innovated measure to better inform students of how their fees are used. I think we should be more of an administration that listens to what students have to say. I think we should have our ears open, our doors open, and certainly know that ideas are growth and that ideas don't just stop when you get into the office; ideas continually evolve and students' input into what we're doing is going to make our administration a successful administration. We really depend on students being involved in our process, and for us to be successful, we have
to have our doors open. That's kind of the foundation of how Ad Astra works.
UDK: How do you intend to change the culture of student politics in order to better serve the students?
EH: We're going to codify the changes immediately, like the shortened election season, the transparent caucuses. Those have to be written in, but I think Ad Astra candidates are already going to be changing the system once they get in. We didn't pick people who do Senate as our senators. We picked people who are leaders and who represents the parts of the community already to come in and represent their communities. We're not having people who joined Senate because they like fighting and debating and moving to acclimate. We brought people to Senate because we feel like they have interesting viewpoints, and I think changing the people who are making the decisions is the easiest way to change the culture.
MT. In terms of changing the culture, that's exactly right, bringing new faces and new energies and new perspectives to the table. Our slate does have some experienced student senators, but we also have a lot of people that are, as Emma said, leaders in their communities that have had nothing to do with Student Senate, and I think that good. If we have an election process in place that encourages debate and encourages competition, I think that would engage students, and if more students are engaged, more students would want to be involved. If we had a turnover process where year after year after year, there are some leaders who Student Senate is their thing, but there are a lot of people who want to come into Student Senate might only want to do it for a year. We really want to break down those barriers, make it more inclusive and make students feel like they can be a part of it. Sometimes changing the culture is changing the people.
Closing arguments:
MT: Coming back to election reform, we think this is a precipice for real structural change. We want to change the way our student body is represented through our student government. It's simple. We think that what has been done in the past is largely representative of a single party system, and that breeds this apathy that we see throughout our communities regarding Student Senate. I hope that on April 10 and 11, more people turn out to vote at KU in this election than have ever voted before. That's the goal. The idea is to engage voters, and that means representing those communities and championing what they want to see done. I really want to see a legacy of Ad Astra KU being an increased voter turnout year after year after year. A success for Ad Astra KU is a competitive system that makes students feel like their voice is heard and matters
EH: The bottom line for Ad Astra in addition to democracy is making college cheaper and making Student Senate more diverse. We're going to bring back diversity to Student Senate because that's what it was founded on in the 1970s, and that's what students deserve now as KU is more diverse than it has ever been. It's also just about making college cheaper. We're all here paying [thousands] of dollars to go to KU, but there are real, tangible changes that can be made with a student mandate, like lowering transcript fees, like eliminating the sales tax on textbooks, that can make it cheaper for everyone who's already here and leave a legacy of making college more affordable for the people who can't be here because it's too expensive right now.

my high school career and also provide for myself in college and then still make something of myself. I think that my work ethic is incomparable to a lot of my peers and a lot of our peers at the University. I also really like listening. I think that one of my advantages is that I listen to every side of the story or every possible option before making a decision, which I think is something that would transpire very well and transition very well into the role as president, if elected. I think that at times you have your own personal agenda or ideas of how shapes should run, but as an elected official, your job is to listen to those people that are representing the student body, the people that elected you. I think it's very important that you look at every angle and take in every consideration; the pros and cons of everything, before making a decision and moving forward. With that, a weakness, sometimes I do take on too much, and I can spread myself a little thin. My realized very quickly my sophomore year being involved in so many organizations at once which I think that if you don't know that you're taking on too much, sometimes the quality of your work can be partially diminished. I've really used some of the opportunities to find weaknesses in my leadership skills and really turn those into strengths. Identifying what could be improved and not only building on my own personal skills but also polishing and bettering those weaknesses into strengths.
BB: I would say a strength that I have with regard to leadership would be having a vision, and it goes back to that point as far as in this capacity, my vision would be making KU better than when I found it. Along with that vision, I think that it's important to be able to bring a vision out in others and so not only myself seeing an issue that can be worked on or a problem that should be solved, but also going to people who may be quiet and saying, 'Can I hear what your vision is for KU and what changes do you see that need to be made?' I think that's an important part of this process because Student Senate is such a collaborative body that we need to bring out all of those thoughts. On the weakness side, tying into that, sometimes I can get a little set on a solution, and if I think something can solve a problem, I will stick with it. I think bringing those voices in and other opinions and saying maybe someone else's solution might be better than mine is an important trait that I continue working on.
Closing Argument:
BW: We just want people to vote. That's an important part of the process, and I look at recent local elections in Lawrence and the state of Kansas, and we're pretty low. Things that are affecting everyday life of people including students and Student Senate elections are so vital. Just getting people involved with that process is huge, and I would encourage it and think that Brandon would agree that the more people that are willing and able to vote should do so. BB: What's really important to remember is that while we (KUnited) have been here for a number of years, each year we might be identified as the same coalition, but every single year, going back to your question is that the beauty of having new candidates each year at the top of the ticket is that you can bring new ideas and new, fresh faces. I'm really excited that half of our coalition this year, it will be there first time in Student Senate while we also have the other half that are involved currently and have the experience and know how to work with campus administration to get things done. I think that obviously we want people to vote in a certain way, but it's very important to us that the voter turnout is much higher this year and that people, regardless of what coalition they're voting for, really do express their opinion and express who they want to represent them in the following year.

Welcome to Kansas basketball's new reality show, "The Rio World"
Throughout the year, freshman guard Rio Adams admits all over websites in GIFs of him dancing or eating imaginary soup or cereal while on the Kansas bench.
Now that the season is over, Adams found a way to keep his show going by announcing his decision to transfer from the University on his Twitter account on April 2 and move closer to his home in Seattle.
That was supposed to be the season finale.
Last Thursday, Adams tweeted that he would not be transferring from the program.
Instead, Jayhawk nation received a surprise part two of the final episode.
If only the final episode was that simple.
Yesterday, Adams made it official on his Twitter account that he will be leaving the program.
Yes, the last decision is final.
While Adams' time here was fun, there are a few things to note.
When you turn 18, people recognize you as an adult. You finally get the chance to make your own decisions like deciding to attend class or go enjoy beautiful weather with friends.
Though the situation was much bigger for Adams, this was exactly the case
No matter the choice, you make a decision, and you live with it.
Once he announced his decision, that should have been the finale. No one was really shocked. Adams publicly addressed his discontent with not playing in a series of tweets right before the Feb. 20 game at Oklahoma State.
In the end, Adams hurt his chances by going back and forth on this decision Still, he has an opportunity to go elsewhere and do very well.
Sophomore Naadir Tharpe returns after a solid season as first guard off the bench. Freshman Andrew White III brings back his three-point shot. Even though it's highly unlikely, McLemore could come back.
Though the 6-foot-3 combo guard has athleticism, Kansas will have plenty of guards to choose from next year.
Adams never had a chance to show his abilities. Even next year, he probably wouldn't have had a shot.
McDonald's All-American Wayne Selden finished with 13 points on five-of-seven shooting in 18 minutes during the McDonald's All-American game. Selden brings size and athleticism as a shooting guard.
Adams would have competed, but ultimately, he would still be unhappy with the playing time.
Adams only scored 27 points in 24 games. He was behind a veteran backcourt combined with freshman guard Ben McLemore.
Mix in young talent with the veterans and Kansas has plenty of options.
Wichita native Conner Frankamp hit 22 of 25 3-pointers in the final round to win the third-annual American Family Insurance High School 3-Point Championship on Friday.
KANSAN FILE PHOTO
Still, Adams gets the chance to shine closer to home. He just made the decision much more interesting.
Adams voted himself off the island that is Allen Fieldhouse, and now, Self won't grant him a rose to return.
Good luck, Rio Adams. Whatever program ends up with you, the team will be lucky to have someone with enough creativity to snack on imaginary cereal.

PITCH PERFECT
TAYLOR-MADE SEASON
FARZIN VOUSOUGHIAN
fvousoughian@kansan.com
Thomas Taylor's senior year could not be drawn out any better. Individually, Taylor has been the brightest spot of the Jayhawks this season.
The senior from Overland Park is 3-0 in 2013. Behind his impressive win-loss record, his numbers are perfect for a senior pitcher who is looking to catch the eye of a professional baseball scout.
"It's been fun to watch his maturity and his development over the five years that he's been here," coach Ritch Price said. "He's really blossomed into an outstanding starter in this conference."
Taylor pitched a complete game against Eastern Michigan last month and came within an out
to pitch another full nine innings against Oklahoma. Taylor is in the top 10 in the conference in ERA, innings pitched and strikeouts, and is one of five pitchers to have a shutout
1
Price said Taylor's maturity has developed since he came to the University in 2008. On the field, Taylor had to learn to transform into a better collegiate pitcher.
"When he first got here, he couldn't spin the ball," Price said. "He had a knuckle-curve type thing that wasn't very effective. But he's improved his breaking ball, and most importantly, he's
improved his command."
"He can make that pitch when he needs to make it. He believes in himself."
Senior third baseman Jordan Dreiling came to Kansas the same time as Taylor and has noticed a lot of improvement in him as a

Jayhawk.
This past Friday, Taylor started sooner than usual on the weekends. The original Sunday starter was ready for No. 19 Oklahoma State and kept them quiet while
the offense generated runs in the 7-5 win.
"He's been working hard at it for the last four years," Dreiling said. "He can make that pitch when he needs to make it. He believes in himself. Burn time."
he goes out there, he believes he should win, as well as we do."
Taylor's ability to have a strong outing has given the Jayhawks good chemistry on the field and in the dugout.
"His job is not to go out there and throw a no-hitter," said freshman designated hitter Jacob Boylan. "It's to give us a chance to win, and he does that every time when he goes on out on the field. It's all about consistency. He's been really consistent all year and has done a good job."
Taylor, who has an ERA of 1.84 on the year, is also leaving his mark in Kansas history.
During Friday's game, he struckout six batters and moved
Before Friday's win, Taylor was eighth in Kansas history in strikeouts.
to sixth all-time in strikeouts.
"It ites awesome to have those kinds of stats here at KU," Taylor said. "I didn't think about all that when I came here. It didn't cross my mind at all. I've always loved KU, and to be up there is just awesome."
While prepping at Blue Valley West high school. Thomas went through a lot of success and led his team to a state championship in 2007. Now, Taylor has compiled a remarkable college career and is hopeful he can carry that to the next level.

Jayhawks prove their competitiveness
FARZIN VOUSOUGHIAN
fvousoughtian@kansan.com
After picking up a 2-1 series victory against No. 19 Oklahoma State this past weekend, the Kansas Jayhawks proved they are one of the more competitive teams in the Big 12 and can play well against a ranked team. Kansas looks to carry that momentum over to today and Wednesday as it goes to Iowa City, Iowa to play the Hawkeyes for a two-game series.
Although the lajahwaks are preparing for a short non-conference series, they still want to go full speed and add more wins to their 18-12 record.
"We have to approach it like it's another Big 12 series," said senior third baseman Jordan Drelling. "These mid-week games mean as much. We're trying to get into the NCAA Tournament, so we've got to approach it like it's another Big 12 series against a top-ranked team so we can take care of business."
Drelling he noticed the team got into a better rhythm this past weekend in its series win over the Cowboys. Kansas has been able
to put up runs on the scoreboard while the pitchers have handled opposing batters for the most part.
Sophomore Robert Kahana and senior Tanner Poppe will take the mound against Iowa. Kahana, despite being a relief pitcher, is expected to give the Jayhaws three strong innings. Kansas will then allow struggling starting junior pitcher Frank Duncan a chance to come out of the bullpen and restore his confidence.
Sophomore Drew Morovick, who has gone 17 consecutive innings without allowing a run, is also expected to come out of the bullpen against Iowa and help the Jayhawks silence the Hawkeyes. The biggest key player coming out of the bullpen for the Jayhawks is junior closer Jordan Piche', who leads the team in saves with six.
"He's awesome to work with because he're ready every time he gets the ball," pitching coach Ryan Graves said. "For a reliever, he's always coming in confident. I think the biggest thing that you see is that players like playing behind him because he pitches so fast, and he's able to throw a lot of strikes.
It gives everyone on the field, and including the dugout, confidence that he'll get it done"
Graves has had little to almost no concerns about Piche', who earned Big 12 Newcomer of the Week honors this week. He's been able to use him multiple times during a week and Piche' has not shown any stress or soreness in his arm if used a lot in a short amount of time.
7
While successfully finishing games this season, Piche' has credited the offense for being able to produce runs a lot more recently to help the Jayhawks get ahead and create leads to come away with wins. In the end, he likes to collaborate effort from the offense and the pitching.
KELSEY WEAVER/KANSAN
The Jayhawks watch intently as the next teammate steps up to bat during their game against Jackson State University at home on March 13, 2013, where they won 11-0. The Jayhawks have an 18-12 record this season.
"I think our sticks are getting really hot right now," Picch' said. "I like where the batters are going. I think just small execution, just pounding the zone with strikes from our pitchers, I think we'll be able to put up some good numbers."
Kahana will square off on Tuesday against Iowa freshman starting pitcher Calvin Mathews at
starting pitcher Sasha Kuebel.
6 p.m. The Jayhawks and Hawkeyes play in the series finale Wednesday at 4 p.m. when Poppe goes head-to-head with Iowa sophomore

THE MORNING BREW Players bring entertainment to sports
If sports were all about the action between the lines, the monotony would bore even the most die-hard fan who lives and dies by his or her favorite team. That's why it's important to acknowledge — and in this case rank — today's most entertaining athletes.
By Chris Shaeder
cschaeder@kansan.com
1. ROB GRONKOWSKI
You might be envious of the success the New England Patriots have had over the past decade, or you might think Bill Belichick is the most boring coach in professional sports. Patriots tight end Gronkowski turns these sentiments on their heads.
Here's a guy who's not only an unbelievable player, but also one of the funniest people to ever pass through the NFL. Sometimes these athletes seem like gods to us normal people, but nothing bumps someone down a couple pegs like getting really drunk after losing the Super
Bowl and dancing like a madman in a crowded night club (if you haven't already YouTubed this video, do it immediately. You'll thank me later).
Gronk is everything a professional athlete should be: entertaining, funny and personable. When is the last time you've seen Gronk said? Well, you haven't because this guy always looks like he loves life.
Is Bryce Harper entertaining? That's a clown question, bro (another YouTube video you need to look up).
2 BRYCE HARPER
Washington Nationals center-fielder Harper may draw ire from critics who say he has a bad attitude and is immature, but this is a 20-year old with a bright future who has brought some much-needed excitement to baseball. His play on the field speaks for itself; it's his attitude off the field that has people buzzing. You never know what this guy is going to do next: hit a homerun or smash his bat to the ground in anger.
People who complain baseball is too boring should check out Harper and the Nationals; it is a young, exciting team on the verge of a World Series run.
3. MARSHALL HENDERSON
Speaking of athletes who draw ir from the critics, Ole Miss guard Henderson was the most controversial and entertaining figure of this college basketball season.
There's a reason he was the main attraction during Ole Miss' NCAA tournament run: He's a magnet for controversy and excitement, whether he was throwing ice
KU
at fans, taunting the Auburn crowd or slapping the floor after hitting a shot
Henderson may do some things that rub you the wrong way, but you have to respect his love for the game and the passion he brings to the floor on every possession. My favorite Henderson moment this season was during the SEC Tournament championship game when he did the gator chomp in front of the Florida fans after hitting a 3-pointer with five minutes left. Who else is that cocky with FIVE minutes left in the game? No one, but Henderson has a mindset where he believes his team will win every game and he will make every shot.

Red Sox continue opener winning streak
BOSTON — Daniel Nava hit a three-run homer, Clay Buchholz pitched seven shutout innings and the surprising Boston Red Sox won their ninth straight home opener, 3-1 over the Boston Orioles on Monday.
Nava broke open a scoreless duel between Buchholz (2-0) and Wei-Yin
Chen (0-1) in the seventh inning with his second homer in two days. He hit an opposite-field shot over the Green Monster in left after Dustin Pedroia singled and took third on a double by Mike Napoli.
The Red Sox are off to a strong start at 5-2 under new manager John Farrell. They finished last in the AL East last season with a 69-93 record under Bobby Valentine, who was fired after
one season.
Buchholz gave up three hits and three walks and struck out eight. Last Wednesday he allowed one run in seven innings in a 7-4 win over the New York Yankees.

HITTING
Kansas has experienced some switches in the lineup throughout the season. There hasn't been a dominant batter for Kansas this year. During the series against Oklahoma State, freshman designated hitter Jacob Boylan and junior center fielder Tucker Tharp were able to escape their slumps and help contribute.
PITCHING
FIELDING
In a non-conference two-game series, Kansas coach Ritch Price still wants Kansas his pitchers to come out strong and give the team more energy and optimism before hosting Texas later this weekend. Robert Kahana, a pitcher usually used as a reliever, will start on Tuesday as sophomore Drew Morowick and junior Frank Duncan are expected to come out of the bullpen.
HITTING
Kansas currently has a .973 fielding percentage while its opponents combined this yeari are below at a.961. Kansas has had issues finding consistency in limiting errors. When the Jayhawks fielding is good, the outcome follows along. If it's bad, the Jayhawks end up having a long day.
Freshman Calvin Mathews has an ERA of 5.06, while sophomore Sasha Kuebel has an ERA of 6.28 for the season. Iowa coachack Dahm wants to hold onto his key weekend starters for this non-conference matchup. Mathews and Kuebel could run into trouble, as Kansas has a good opportunity to burn up the scoreboard and add a lot of hits this week.
The Iowa Hawkeyes have been very limited in their success on offense. Sophomore infielder Nick Day has the only homerun for the Hawkeyes this season while the team is hitting at just .269. The lack of production on offense spells success for Kansas pitchers in this mid-week series.
FIELDING
PITCHING
The Hawkeyes' fielding hasn't been as good as most baseball teams. Their current fielding percentage stands at .956, and they have struggled against teams in the Big Ten. Facing a competitive Big 12 team like Kansas represents a bigger challenge for Iowa's infield.

Cubs succumb to Brewers
ASSOCIATED PRESS
CHICAGO — Marco Estrada pitched seven effective innings and doubled home a run Monday, helping the Milwaukee Brewers stop a five-game slide with a 7-4 victory over the Chicago Cubs in the first game of the season at Wrigley Field.
With a strong wind blowing out at the start of the game — a rare sight for an April date at the iconic neighborhood ballpark — Estrada allowed two runs and five hits while bouncing back from a lackluster season defeat against Colorado. The right-hander also drove in Alex Gonzalez with a drive into the gap in right-center during Milwaukee's two-run seventh.
Norichika Aoki collected three more hits and Ryan Braun had a successful return to the lineup as the Brewers won for the first time since opening day.
Aoki had a career-high four hits in Milwaukee's 8-7 loss to Arizona on Sunday and is batting .588 (10 for 17) in his last four games.
Welington Castillo belted a two-run homer for Chicago, which has dropped four in a row and five of six. Edwin jackson was hit hard in his first home game since he signed a $52 million, four-year contract over the winter, surrendering five runs and eight hits in six innings.
The Cubs rallied for two runs in the ninth and had the bases loaded when Dave Sappelt struck out and Starlin Castro flew out to the warning track in right to end the game.
Braun, who missed Milwaukee's weekend sweep by Arizona due to spasms on the right side of his neck, went 3 for 4 with two doubles before he was replaced by Logan Schafer in the eighth inning. The 2011 NL MVP has at least one hit in each of his four games this season.
It was Braun's first road game
since his name surfaced in records from the now-defunct Biogenesis of America LLC clinic alleged to have provided banned substances to several players. After his name was connected to the clinic, he issued a statement in which he said he used the clinic's operator. Anthony Bosch, as a consultant in appealing a positive drug test that was overturned last year.
As soon as Jenkins and Williams left the field, the Brewers jumped all over Jackson (0-2).
Braun was lustily booed by the crowd of 40,083, but he is the best player on one of Chicago's division rivals. And the fans hardly seemed to notice he was at the plate after they got done jeering struggling reliever Carlos Marmol when he came on to pitch the eighth.
The day began with a tarp over the infield as showers rolled through the area, but the grey clouds soon gave way to sunshine for an unusually warm opener at the 99-year-old ballpark. Hall of Famers Fergie Jenkins and Billy Williams each threw out a ceremonial first pitch, and Ernie Banks led the crowd in the singing of the "Take Me Out to The Ball Game" during the seventh-inning stretch.
With runners on first and second and two down, Jonathan Lucroy and Alex Gonzalez had consecutive walks to force home a run. Martin Maldonado then delivered a bases-clearing double into the right-field corner, lifting Milwaukee to a 4-0 lead.
The Brewers added another run in the second when Aoki reached on a leadoff double and scored on Braun's one-out double to center.
That was more than enough for Estrada (1-0), who struck out six and walked one. He was coming off a no-decision against the Rockies, when he allowed four runs and nine hits in five innings.

A pair of wrongful-death lawsuits over the suicide of New England Patriots Junior Seau have been consolidated with NFL concussion litigation in Philadelphia.
NFL sued for neglecting player safety
ASSOCIATED PRESS
PHLADELPHIA — With perhaps billions of dollars at stake, a hearing Tuesday over concussion litigation filed against the NFL promises to be a contest between leal lions.
About 4,200 former players have sued the league. Some suffer from dementia, depression, Alzheimer's disease and other neurological problems. Others simply want their health monitored.
And a small number, including Ray Easterling and 12-time Pro Bowler Junior Seau, committed suicide after long downward spirals.
The players' lawyers accuse the NFL of promoting violence in the game and concealing known cognitive risks from concussions and
other blows to the head. They hope to keep the litigation in federal court so they can use the discovery process to access NFL files — and see what the league knew when.
"The NFL failed to live up to its responsibility: it negligently heightened players' exposure to repeated head trauma and fraudulently concealed the chronic brain injuries that resulted" the players' lawyers wrote in their latest brief, filed in January.
"The rule in our league is simple: Medical decisions override everything else," NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell said in a speech last month at the University of North Carolina.
The NFL, with $9.2 billion in annual revenues, argues that the complaints belong in arbitration under terms of the collective bargaining agreement. The league insists it has always followed the best available science and made player safety a top priority.
The NFL will be represented Tuesday by Paul Clement, a former U.S. solicitor general under President George W. Bush who has fought gay marriage, gun-control measures and President Barack Obama's state health care mandates before the Supreme Court.
Players' lawyer David Frederick, an Obama ally, has taken consumer protection fights over investor fees and prescription drug warnings to the high court.
Senior U.S. District Judge Anita B. Brody of Philadelphia will hear the case and decide whether the lawsuits stay in federal court or are "pre-empted" by the collective bargaining agreements. Scores of
related lawsuits around the country have been steered to her because she had been assigned the 2011 Easterling suit, the first to be filed.
If Brody sides with the players, she would then rule on some broader issues, which are expected to include hard-fought battles over the science of concussions and brain injuries, along with the players' claims of fraud and negligence. The cases would then be returned to their home states to resolve individual damage claims, based on each player's history.
If the NFL prevails, the players must seek individual arbitration awards. But no money is expected to change hands for years while the case plays out. Brody's ruling, which could take months, is likely to be appealed by the losing side.

The Louisville teams jumps on the bench against the Michigan during the second half of the NCAA Final Four tournament college basketball championship game yesterday in Atlanta. Louisville won 82-76.
Louisville defeats Michigan for school's third national title
ASSOCIATED PRESS
ATLANTA — Luke Hancock made all five of his 3-pointers and led Louisville to its first NCAA men's basketball championship since 1986 with an 82-76 victory over Michigan on Monday night.
Coach Rick Pitino added this title to the one he won at Kentucky in 1996 and is the first coach to win a championship at two schools. Earlier in the day, Pitino was elected to the Naismith Memorial Hall of Fame.
Hancock scored 22 points and Peyton Siva had 18 for the Cardinals (35-5), who trailed by 12 late in the first half before rallying for the school's third national title.
But the celebration belonged to the Cardinals, who added this to a Sugar Bowl victory this year and also have their women's team in Tuesday's national final against Connecticut.
Chane Behanan scored nine quick points early in the second half to help Louisville take the lead after trailing by double digits.
Trey Burke had 24 points for Michigan (31-8), which was in the final for the first time since the Fab Five led the Wolverines there in 1993. Little-used freshman Spike Albrecht added 17 points.
Behanan finished with 15 points
and 13 rebounds, including eight on the offensive glass.
Albrecht came in for Burke and made his first four 3-point attempts, scoring all his points in the opening half. Albrecht finally missed with a little more than 11 minutes left; he was still 9 for 10 from long range for the tournament.
Hancock made all four of his 3-pointers to start a 14-1 run for Louisville that briefly gave the Cardinals a one-point lead late in the first half after they trailed by 12. Michigan's Glenn Robinson III made two free throws with 2 seconds left to give the Wolverines the lead at the half but Louisville led by as many as five early in the second.
The Cardinals came in having won six games this season after trailing by 10 or more, including Saturday night's semifinals, when they beat Wichita State 72-68 also falling behind by 12.
It was a scintillating final act of a season that has been more of a grind, with scoring at its lowest (67.49 points per team) since 1951-52 and shooting at its worst (43.3 percent) since 1964-65.
The 131.2-points-per-game average during March Madness is the lowest since the 3-point line was brought to the game in 1987, though the teams had surpassed that with 5:30 left.
Sitting on the bench with the Cardinals was sophomore guard Kevin Ware, the team's inspiration since snapping his tibia in the regional final last weekend.
Needing a pickup without Ware, Hancock led the scoring against Wichita State. And rarely used walk-on Tim Henderson made two key 3-pointers during the comeback.
Pitino, meanwhile, was working the sideline hours after being chosen for the Naismith Memorial Hall of Fame.
Russ Smith, the Louisville team leader who Pitino has nicknamed "Russicidulous" for some of his wild
—and wildly effective — antics on the court, finished with nine points on 3-of-16 shooting.
Michigan topped Syracuse 61-56 on Saturday despite an off night from Burke, who finished with only seven points on 1-for-8 shooting.
Burke, a sophomore, seriously considered leaving for the NBA after last season but decided he had unfinished business left in Ann Arbor. He picked up the AP Player of the Year award, among others, and is now one victory away from the ultimate prize in college hoops.

On Monday afternoon,
Adams posted on his Twitter

reiterating Self's statement.
With Adams' departure, Kansas has two available scholarships for next year, although that number would become three if freshman guard Ben McLemore declares for the NBA Draft. He is scheduled to meet with media members at 2:30 p.m. today, presumably to announce his intentions for next season.
Adams intends to transfer to a school closer to home, but it is unknown what school that will be. ESPN ranked him the No. 26 shooting guard in his class last year, and Rivals named him the No. 98 overall recruit.
Kansas currently has five members in its incoming recruiting class: center Joel Embold, guard Conner Frankamp, wing Brannen Greene, combo guard Wayne Selden and point guard Frank Mason. All but Mason are top-100 recruits, according to ESPN's rankings.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Ervin Santana pitched eight strong innings, Alcides Escobar doubled home the go-ahead run and the Kansas City Royals rallied to beat the Minnesota Twins 3-1 on Monday in their home opener.
Santana (1-1), acquired from the Los Angeles Angels on Oct. 31 for minor league left-hander Brandon Sisk, gave up a run and eight singles. He struck out seven, walked one and hit a batter. Santana allowed only four hits after the first inning, when the Twins scored their lone run.
Twins right-hander Kevin Correia (0-1) limited the Royals to five players and no runs the first seven innings before Lorenzo Cain doubled to right.

Escobar's double scored Gordon and knocked Correia out of the game. Jared Burton replaced Correia and gave up a run-scoring single to Billy Butler, who tied a club record with seven RBs Sunday at Philadelphia.
Aaron Crow worked the ninth to earn his first save of the season and only the third of his career — two coming against the Twins. His previous save came July 21 against Minnesota. The Royals, who have come from behind to win three straight games, have three saves from three different pitchers this season.

The Twins bunched four singles in the first inning, but managed just the one run after Doumit ended the inning by being thrown out scrambling to get back to second base after Justin Morneau stopped at third on Trevor Ploufeu's single.

Cincinnati Reds' Chris Heisey, bottom, is tagged out at home by St. Louis Cardinals catcher Yadier Molina while trying to score during the fourth inning of a baseball game westered in St. Louis.
ST. LOUIS — Brandon Phillips kick-started a nine-run ninth inning with a tiebringing bloop double and Shin-Soo Choo made amends for two botched fly balls with a three-run double, and the Cincinnati Reds spoiled the St. Louis Cardinals' home opener with a 13-4 victory on Monday.
Mitchell Boggs (0-1), the stand-in closer for St. Louis, yielded six runs while getting only one out and the Cardinals needed four more pitchers to get out of the inning. Only a few thousand fans remained of the largest regular-season crowd of 47,375 for the bottom of the ninth in 8-year-old Busch Stadium history.
The defending NL. Central champions Cardinals held a tribute for Stan Musial before the game.
Phillips added his 150th career homer for the Reds, who have won six of seven since losing in extra innings to the Angels on opening day and totaled 11 or more hits the last four games. Jay Bruce had four hits and Chris Heisey doubled twice with an RBL.
Sam LeCure (1-0) pitched an inning for the win.
Cardinals lefty Jamie Garcia matched his career best with 10 strikeouts in 6 2-3 innings and left with a 4-3 lead, Yadier Molina hit both of the fly balls dropped by Choo in the first and sixth, and
Pinch-hitter Xavier Paul tied it in the eighth with an RBI single off Trevor Rosenthal before the Reds took off in the ninth with six hits, five walks and an error. The Cardinals last surrendered nine runs in the ninth in a 12-9 loss at Colorado July 6, 2010.
added an RBI single.
Prior to the game, Musial's four children unveiled an oversized red No. 6, the Hall of Famer's retired jersey number, on the wall in left-center. The decal matches memorial patches worn on the team's uniform sleeves.
Choo entered the season with 652 games of outfield experience but only 10 in center, and all 155 games with the Indians last year as the right fielder. Two runs scored in the first when Choo twice juggled Molina's fly ball after backtracking, and Matt Holliday scored from first to put the Cardinals up 4-2 in the sixth when the ball popped on Choo, perhaps fighting the sun.
Reds players stood on the top dugout steps as the Cardinals paraded around the warning track
in flat-bed trucks, and manager Dusty Baker gave a hug to Hall of Famer Ozzie Smith.
Reds starter Mat Latos allowed one earned run in six innings, shaving his ERA to 10.23 in five career starts at Busch to 10.23.

TRENTON, N.J. — Rutgers officials are scrutinizing practice videos of all sports to see if any coach engaged in behavior like the type that cost men's basketball coach Mike Rice his job, the university president announced Monday. The inquiry into Rice and how university officials responded is also going deeper as the school announced that it plans to hire a consultant to conduct an independent review.
University President Robert Barchi, speaking Monday during a town hall meeting on the school's Newark campus, said that he wants any instances of bullying or homophobic language to be reported immediately.
Rice's departure brings forth more Rutgers investigations
Rice — whom Gov. Chris Christie on Monday called an "animal" — shoved players and called them gay slurs when it first surfaced in November, saying he would have fired Rice then.

Rice was fired
Rice was the last week only after the video became public. Athletic Director Tim Pernett, an assistant basketball coach and the university's top lawyer also resigned last week, while some Rutgers faculty members and others called for Barchi to step down, too.
Meanwhile, Christie on Monday defended Barchi's performance while blasting Rice's behavior. He also criticized the reaction of those who knew about it and did not fire the coach months ago, when the video was given to university officials and viewed by — at least Athletic Director Tim Pernett, university interim counsel John Wolf and Mark Hershhorn, the chairman of the university Board of Governors' athletics committee.

"They were wrong not to come to the conclusion that Coach Rice needed to be fired immediately," Christie said at a news conference.

He said he viewed the video not only as a governor but as the father of a college athlete. His son Andrew plays baseball at Princeton.
While the governor had issued statements previously, it was the first time Christie took questions about the scandal at the state's flagship public university. The Republican governor added that he been aware of the issues earlier he would have used his "power of persuasion" to try to get Rice fired then.
Hersherson's lawyer, Jennifer Joseph, said the governor is wrong about Hersherson. Hersherson immediately called for Rice to be

this video?" he said.
Christie said it was a mistake for Barchi, who took office in September, not to watch the video last year when he first was told about it. But he said leaders of large organizations must delegate some matters and that the mistake was not a firing offense.
It was Pernetti's job to know what the coach was doing, Christie said. According to a settlement the university provided to The Associated Press on Monday, Pernetti is receiving $1.25 million as he departs, along with perks ranging from health insurance for more than two years to a $12,000 annual car allowance until next year and his university issued iPad
Rutgers announced Monday that it was commissioning an independent review of Rice's conduct and the way the university responded to it. The board of governors will meet Thursday to discuss that.
Also Monday, board chairman Ralph Izzo said that one board member — Hershhorn — had seen the video in December and
that it was not shown to other members. The topic of the coach's conduct was discussed at a committee meeting in December, but it was not discussed at the wholeboard meeting that month.
Joseph, Hershorn's lawyer, said he voiced his concerns about what he believed was "abusive and demeaning" behavior "quickly, responsibly and diligently."
Before hearing Hershorn's account, state Senate President Stephen Sweeney called on the board member to resign. "Any trustee or member of the board of governors who witnessed the tape at any point before it was publicly aired, and took no action, should be removed or resign immediately," he said in a statement.
The scandal has prompted the FBI to investigate whether a former Rutgers basketball employee asked for money from Rutgers in exchange for not taking the videos public, a person familiar with the investigation told The Associated Press on Sunday.
Asked about the FBI inquiry on Monday, Barchi said the agency wasn't called but came "on their own."
As the investigations mount, Christie said he did not believe that state lawmakers should have an inquiry of their own, saying Rutgers is investigating and that holding hearings would "continue reputational damage" to the school.
Assembly Speaker Sheila Oliver, who has called for hearings said "the taxpayers, students, faculty, administrators, parents, alumni and other constituents" deserve to know what happened.
Meanwhile, Rutgers is turning to former dean Carl Kirschner to run its athletic department on an interim basis while it conducts a search for someone to take the job permanently.
It's the second time that Kirscher will run the program. He took over at the start of 2009 after Robert Mulcahy was fired, and held the role for four months, stepping down when Penettio took over.

University program reaches out to elderly, teens
EMILY DONOVAN edonovan@kansan.com
At 82 years old, Dotty Janzen doesn't fit the image of the coffee-feuled, Facebook-checking conventional student that professors have grown accustomed to. Monday at 3 p.m., however, she enters a classroom where her fellow students are more likely to recognize a song by George Gershwin than Nicki Minai.
"People who are in retirement, or near retirement, recognize that there are still a lot of things that they want to learn," said Jim Peters, director of the Osher Lifelong Learning Institute at the University.
In the fall of 2004, the University held the first enrichment class in the Continuing Education Building
Janen, who lives in Kidron Bethel Village in North Newton, is proud to be among this year's 2,100 students. Between making phone calls to family members and visiting with others in her retirement community, she studies motivations behind the Arab Spring and the schism between Sunni and Shia Muslims in "What's Going on in the Middle East?"
just off campus. Now the program reaches 17 cities across Kansas and the Kansas City area, holding classes at nursing homes, community colleges and other campuses for people anywhere from 16 to more than 100 years old.
"I don't want to become a little old lady that sits in a chair and rocks her rocking chair," lanzen said. "I've always been interested in learning and growing. I don't want
to just sit around and play bingo."
Classes, which are generally two to three hours long and last for three weeks, are compact enough to drill a subject but flexible enough to fit into potential students' schedules.
"I've don't want to just sit around and play bingo."

The 59 different classes currently offered through the University's program cater to diverse interests, Peters said. A senior citizen who worked as an attorney, for example, may not have had the time in her
college schedule to take a course on Emily Dickinson or architecture in Ancient Rome.
"The Osher Foundation has done studies that show that the more actively engaged a senior is academically, the more likely they're going to live longer and have healthier lives," Peters said. "We are promoting lifelong learning."
In weeks and semesters past, Janzen has taken classes on politics in Kansas, the unique differences separating eastern and western Europe and prairie flowers.
"When I'm teaching courses on Broadway musicals written 80 years ago, these are things these people remember and they experienced many years ago," said Paul Laird, school of music professor. "You're bringing back a treasured
Teaching both at the University and through the Lifelong Learning Institute, Laird sometimes covers the same information for both his 21-year-old and 90-year-old students. Since the Lifelong Learning Institute is noncredit for enrichment, his classes have no tests or quizzes, only lecture and some discussion.
"These students all want to be there," Laird said. "They're doing this o remember things from their past and learn new things. They're trying to keep themselves active."

ASSOCIATED PRESS
CYPRESS, Texas — A 20-year-old student went on a building-to-building stabbing attack at a Texas community college Tuesday, wounding at least 14 people — many in the face and neck — before being subdued and arrested, authorities said Tuesday.
The Harris County Sheriff's Office said in a statement that Dylan Quick had been planning the attack at the Lone Star College System's campus in Cypress for some time and had fantasies of stabbing people to death since he was in elementary school.
Quick, who was charged with three counts of aggravated assault, used a razor-type knife, and piece of the blade was found in at least one victim, the sheriff's office said. Broken blade pieces also were found in the area where the stabbing occurred, and the handle was discovered in a backpack
that Quick was carrying when he was arrested.
Authorities were seen entering Quick's parents' home in Houston on Tuesday night. No one answered the door or the phone at the home, where two vehicles were parked in the driveway, including a Honda Accord with a license plate that said "DYLAN."
The attack happened at 11:20 a.m. and sent at least 12 people to hospitals, while several others refused treatment at the scene, according to Cy-Fair Volunteer Fire Department spokesman Robert Rasa. Twopeopleremained in critical condition Tuesday evening at Memorial Hermann Texas Trauma Institute, spokeswoman Alex Rodriguez said.
Diante Cotton, 20, said he was sitting in a cafeteria with some friends when a girl clutching her neck walked in, yelling: "He's stabbing people! He's stabbing people!"
Cotton said he could not see the girl's injuries, but when he and his friends went outside, they saw a half-dozen people with injuries to their faces and necks being loaded into ambulances and medical helicopters.
Harris County Sherriff Adrian Garcia said that when emergency calls came into the department, there were indications that "students or faculty were actively responding to work to subdue this individual."
"So we're proud of those folks, but we're glad no one else is injured any more severely than they are," Garcia said.
The attack came three months after a different Lone Star campus was the site of a shooting in which two people were hurt. The suspected gunman in that incident is charged with aggravated assault.

Abortion rights groups deliver petitions to governor
ASSOCIATED PRESS
TOPEKA —A group of abortion-rights activists on Tuesday delivered about 1,600 signed petitions to Kansas Gov. Sam Brownback's office urging him not to sign legislation that puts new restrictions on abortion.
Legislators passed a bill late Friday that declares life begins at fertilization, while blocking tax breaks for abortion providers and banning abortions performed solely because of the baby's sex.
Brownback spokeswoman Sara Belfry said the governor hasn't received the bill in his office but is
expected to sign it. The governor opposes abortion and has signed numerous bills restricting abortion since taking office in 2011.
The group presenting the petitions included representatives from the Kansas National Organization for Women, the American Civil Liberties Union of Kansas and Western Missouri, the Mainstream Coalition and Planned Parenthood of Kansas and Mid-Missouri.
The Rev. Joshua Longbottom of Plymouth Congregational Church in Lawrence said legislators and other religious denominations opposed to abortion should "desist" in their efforts to pass laws restricting the rights of those who don't share their views.
PAGE 3
"I believe these women are the best moral agents for making those decisions without government intrusion." Longbottom said. "The more difficult that abortions become the more young women's lives will be put in danger."
In addition to the bans on tax breaks and sex-selection abortions, the bill prohibits abortion providers from being involved in public school sex education classes and spells out in more detail what information doctors must provide to patients seeking abortions.
Haley Miller of the University of
saying it goes further than it actually does, adding that the concerns "put Chicken Little to shame."
Kansas Commission on the Status of Women said she was concerned the legislation would give doctors the right to lie to women about their pregnancy in effort to stop an abortion.
The measure's language that life begins "at fertilization" had some abortion-rights supporters worrying it could be used to legally harass providers. Abortion opponents call it a statement of principle and not an outright ban on terminating pregnancies.
"This is nothing more than an attempt to deceive and scare people about abortion policy which, when the facts are honestly presented, don't scare the public at all," Culp said.
Mary Kay Culp, executive director of Kansans for Life, said abortion-rights activists were trying to stir opposition to the measure by
She said the effort tried to paint Brownback as being an extremist, even though the measure passed by wide margins in the House and Senate.
NATIONAL
Republican Party leaders alienate prospective voters
ASSOCIATED PRESS
ATLANTA — National Republican leaders made waves recently with a dim view of the party's future if it fails to expand its core support beyond white males and social conservatives. But weeks after GOP Chairman Reince Priebus unveiled the "Growth and Opportunity Project" report, many party players maintain that the problem often is more about flawed messengers saying the wrong things at the wrong times than the policy positions at issue.
The distinction between policy flaws and communication problems is at the crux of the GOP's soul-searching as the Republican National Committee convenes this week in Los Angeles for the first time since the report's release. And it's a discussion that won't end anytime soon as conservatives, moderates and pragmatists struggle for control of the GOP megaphone. The dynamic has been highlighted in the weeks since the chairman's call for outreach, with succession of conservative party figures voicing positions that may alienate the very voters national party leaders want to capture.
Alaska Rep. Don Young was for apologize after referring
to Hispanic migrant workers as "wetbacks." Media titan Donald Trump, who flirted with a presidential run in 2012, warned against compromising with President Baraack Obama on a citizenship path for anyone already in the country illegally, saying they'll just become Democratic voters.
Using social media, Republican National Committee member Dave Agema of Michigan redistributed controversial writings that were harshly critical of gay Americans. Agema dug in after many Michigan Republicans called for his resignation.
Days later, the head of the Georgia state party, Sue Everhart, said that if same-sex marriage were "natural," then gay couples "would have the equipment to have a sexual relationship." She predicted that if the Supreme Court allows federal employee benefits for gay couples, then individuals who are "straight as an arrow" will enter same-sex unions just for financial perks.
Comments like those have some Republicans reeling.
"It's extremely, extremely frustrating," said Gregory Steele, a University of North Carolina senior who leads his state's college Republican organization. "We want the party to have a serious
policy discussion about all of these issues going forward, but it's hard to get to that point with all of these mistakes."
Former U.S. Sen. Olympia Snowe of Maine, who retired in January as one of the GOP's last elected New England moderates, deplored the "intolerance" that she says has driven a "slow and steady erosion of a strong political base."
"We want the party to have a serious policy discussion about all of these issues going forward."
GREGORY STEELE
University of North Carolina senior
"It's very exclusionary," Snowe said. "For anyone who isn't already a Republican, how are they going to be drawn in right now?"
At Log Cabin Republicans, a national group of gay GOP loyalists, Gregory Angelo said the flaps reinforce the image of an inflexible organization. But he also noted Ohio Sen. Rob Portman's recent embrace of same-sex marriage, and described the party right now as
going through "growing pains."
"We are no longer walking in lock-step on these (social) issues," he said.
White House losing streaks — like the one Republicans are in nationally — aren't new. Democrats lost four out of five presidential elections — all by wide margins
— from 1972 to 1988, before then Arkansas Bill Clinton styled himself as a "New Democrat" to win the presidency in 1992 and 1996.
But current trends are foreboding for Republicans. They've lost the popular vote in five out of the last six presidential elections. In the last two, Obama has won overwhelming majorities of non-white voters and younger voters, while the anchors of Republican support — older white voters — have become an increasingly smaller share of the electorate. Neither Clinton nor Jimmy Carter ever drew popular vote majorities. Obama has twice cleared 51 percent.
Republicans also lost several winnable Senate races in 2012 after conservative nominees made controversial statements about women and abortion.
Top Republicans both acknowledge the damage such comments have caused and remain careful to
defend the party's official positions as they call for a wider tent.
Republican Governors Association Chairman Bobby Jindal memorably called for the GOP to "stop being the stupid party," but the potential 2016 presidential candidate from Louisiana said in the same January speech to the RNC, "We do not need to change what we believe ... our principles are timeless."
Henry Barbour, a Mississippian who helped write the post-election analysis for Priebus, emphasizes that the document shouldn't be read as a call to change the Republican position on abortion, same-sex marriage or immigration.
"In politics, you need to be what you're for," he said.
Both Villere and Barbour said fixing the party starts with softening the way that Republicans talk about hot-button issues and emphasizing economic and fiscal policy.
Louisiana Republican Chairman Roger Villere, a conservative who is also national party vice chairman, said, "To be Democrat-light will not win us elections."

The frat "men" statement yesterday was the funniest joke the FFA has ever posted.
Words only affect us if we let them
I've never eaten a pear.
I guess the first time I was called a "wetback" was about six years ago in middle school, but the last time I heard it was from Republican Rep. Don Young on a radio show a couple weeks back. I know you all are probably expecting me to throw on my luchador mask and enter the ring here, but to tell you the truth, I'm not at all offended. They're just words, after all.
So, as I was saying, back in middle school some kid told me that I was a wetback and that, apparently, I should be offended by this term. Later that night, I looked it up on Urban Dictionary and learned that the term was used to describe illegals that swam across the border to enter America. I didn't understand why it was offensive - inaccurate,
certainly, given that I was born in Mississippi – but not offensive. I just figured that the kid really wanted to call me "nigger," but I wasn't nearly dark enough so he found another word to remind me that I wasn't white.
I also got "beaner," "allen" and simply "Mexican," spat out with just the right inflection to convey what a despicable thing it was to be. But what's in a name? That which we call a wetback by any other name would smell as putrid. The words could never offend me – just the intent behind them and the actions that would follow.
I'm a writer, so I spend a lot of time thinking about using just the right words in just the right context to say just exactly what I mean. But if I'm being totally

honest, my interest in diction began back when I was a kid, with such elegant words as "ass," "bitch," "shit" and whatever the hell else I can get by my editor. I found these obscenities so powerful because they were the few out of millions of words that I couldn't use. The words themselves meant nothing to me, but they had been bad words since long before I was born. They arrived in my vocabulary prein-
stalled with a meaning of hatred.
I don't care that Don Young called his dad's old farmhands "wetbacks." I don't care that Governor Rick Perry has a shooting ranch called "Niggerhead." Or that Rush Limbaugh called a Georgetown college student a "slut" on his show last year. Or that former Michigan Rep. Dave Agema posted an article about "homosexuals last week. They're just words — I don't take them any more seriously than the claims of the GOP that they are a more inclusive, diverse and tolerant party now.
You see, my old high school journalism teacher taught me to show, rather than tell, in my writing. So I won't tell you that I was "hurt" by racism. Instead, I'd show you that I stopped going to
me pool so much in the summer because I didn't want my skin to get darker and have people notice that I was different. See the difference? The actions mean more. Words have their connotations and preinstalled meanings – for instance, I've always been taught that "Republican" is synonymous with "bigot" and "racist." But truthfully, I don't care what nasty words they call me, or what nice things they say they'll do for Latinos until they actually show me they're committed to reform.

Political ideologies possess new players on their teams
A coach has a philosophy for how their game is played. A general set of beliefs that dictate the way they will coach, their team's style of play, and the kinds of strategies they will employ.
Beyond these basic philosophies however, adjustments must be made. A coach may not always have the right types of players to pound the ball into the post. When a team doesn't have the same players year to year, a coach must play to his player's strengths while balancing his philosophy on the game. Other times plans or execution may fail and adjustments must be made in the locker room on the fly.
By Clay Cosby
ccosby@kansan.com
Coaches that hold steadfast to a bad plan that does not fit their team or the situation on the court don't win many games.
An engaged citizen, a politician, a political party — all have political philosophies. However too often we do not make adjustments to fit the present circumstances. Instead of evaluating our players or the game situation we stick blindly to what our ideology would mandate our position to be; we are like Roy Williams, never calling a timeout no matter how much the momentum of the game may have swung against his team.
Our solutions must adapt to the contemporary climate and can do so within the realm of our belief systems.
The Sequester is the perfect forum for this example.
Some conservatives have turned President Reagan into a deep-red idol and in light of the recent passing of icon and Reagan's British counterpart, Margaret Thatcher, they will likely preach with renewed fervor of the timeless monotony of the former President's policies, without regard for the necessary coaching adjustments.
The players on the team are different now; we face a distinctly contrasting economic climate. We need to play with the players we have now, not try to recreate the Dream Team. When the Sequester was implemented on March 1, it brought $85 billion of cuts. It was described by virtually all members of the media as terrifying, but now (just one month
later) many have started to doubt its peril and said that President Obama "cried wolf."
In the '80s, Reagan sliced tax rates that were left in the obscenely high range after the Carter administration and sought to shrink government. For that time it may very well have been the right solution; I think it probably was. But the consequences were an administration that raised the annual federal deficit by the second most of any President, only after Obama's predecessor.
Many of the same Reagan ideologues that worship his policies also critique Obama for his treatment of our debt dilemma and they would be among the first to agree that an increase in the annual deficit akin to the '80s is not what we need right now.
The Sequester is a return to politics of the past. Old solutions need to evolve to survive. We need a halftime locker room adjustment. You can call it pragmatism or pluralism, but Bill Self just calls it coaching.

Gun control in Conn. a blueprint for the US
I'm pretty sure most of you are getting sick and tired of hearing about all of this gun control talk, but I have to get one thing off of my chest, mainly because Connecticut is my home and change needs to happen. I think it is important to mention that Connecticut has signed and put in place the most strict gun laws our nation has ever seen, and I think the rest of the nation should and will follow its lead.
The new bill will ban more than 100 different assault rifles, any ammunition clip over 10 rounds, armor-piercing bullets, and require a background check to purchase any firearm.
Connecticut is known as the "Constitutional State," but now there are people calling it the "Unconstitutional State" and this is completely preposterous. These are common sense gun laws. No one is taking away your second amendment right to "bear arms," but rather trying to better protect our country and the people that live within it, and I completely agree with that. These restrictions are put in place to keep guns out of the hands of dangerous, convicted criminals. That alone makes me feel safer than having an assault rifle locked up somewhere in the house.
By Ben Carroll
bcarroll@kansan.com
It is not just the background checks that will make Connecticut or our nation safer, but also the reduction of large magazine clips. Who, besides the military, would need 30-, 40-, or even 50-round clips? Who would have a problem with 10 bullet clip maximums? Hunters don't need anything more than that, and people at a gun range certainly don't need more than that, so what exactly is the issue with this magazine reduction law that is put into place? There is
CAMPUS CHIRPS BACK
no downfall. Banning larger clips and forcing the shooter to reload more often can save a lot of lives. It is simple arithmetic. The more one has to reload, the more time people have to escape, and the more of a chance there is for something to jam or fail.
"That two seconds (to reload a gun) makes a difference, that two seconds is an opportunity, that two seconds is a chance," said Chief Douglas Fuchs of the Redding, Conn. police department on CNN's "Piers Morgan Tonight." "That protects civilians, and protects our officers, and gives them a better or fighting chance when in harms way."
I am a big believer in "history repeats itself" because of the tragedies I have witnessed in my lifetime, and these gun restrictions are doing something to try to stop another Sandy Hook or Aurora. Colo. massacre. In the past, we have just turned the other way and moved on, but now this change needs to happen.
I guess the point of these new gun laws is to save innocent lives. So, if in the future these laws do in fact save at least one person's life, isn't it worth it?

No Strings Attached
January 2011
Romantic comedies such as "Friends with Benefits," "No Strings Attached" and "The Proposal" are examples of movies that give viewers unreal expectations for relationships, sex, and romance.
IMDB
UNREAL LOVE
Romantic comedies give audiences unrealistic expectations of love
Jamie is wandering around Grand Central Station searching for her mother in a crowd when a flash mob breaks out. She glances at the stairs across from her and spots Dylan casually leaning against the railing.
"You said you wanted your life to be like a movie," Dylan says. He then proceeds to pour his heart out to Jamie and even knelows down on one knee, like princess charming, and asks her to be his best friend again because he is in love with her. They kiss, and of course, we assume they live happily ever after.
This scene from "Friends with Benefits" has some essential qualities of a romantic comedy: attractive stars, perfect sex, bold gestures, love monologues, and a relationship that flourishes despite complications.

movies because we know they are just movies" Galician said. "But they can provide an idea of what is normal and we are, in different ways, certainly affected in terms of expectations and standards in what we expect of a relationship."
Disappointment is one effect Edinburgh researchers discovered when viewers' love lives did not live up to the movies. Alesia Woszidlo, an assistant professor in communication studies at the University, said that romantic comedies can make us feel bad about our own relationships.
"Movies can make us feel inadequate, like we are not meeting the norm," Wozzillo said. "They can make us feel disfrenched and dissatisfied enough to even look for a new mate, but we don't meet Prince Charmings."

comedies are a top-grossing film genre, they contain unrealistic themes and portrayals of love, which scholars have concluded are affecting viewers' love lives. According to a 2009 study by researchers at Heriot Watt University in Edinburgh, 90 percent of young people search for insight on the nature of romantic relationships from movies, and their unrealistic expectations about love increase the more they view these impractical representations.
"Real life' isn't anything like real life when it comes to sex and romance," said Mary-Lou Galician, head of Media Analysis and Criticism at the school of journalism at Arizona State University and creator of Realistic Romance, a program created to help consumers understand and avoid unhealthy mass media myths and stereotypes of sex, love and romance. "There is this whole idea of a wedding coming together and a happily ever after, but there are no conflicts or barriers of getting to that point."
Despite romantic comedies' improbable structures, they still thrive at the box office. Zach Saltz, a second-year Ph.D. student from Eugene, Ore., and president
of Film and Media Graduate Council at the university, said romantic comedies have been popular for the last 100 years and have had the same template since their beginnings.
"Studios are risk adverse and they are noncontroversial," Saltz said. "They do not push the status quo."
Galician says that romantic
"The public is asking for it by not asking for it" Galician said. "It is up to audiences to be media literate and understand what is appropriate and absolutely ridiculous."
comedies are also so popular because producers are just satisfying what the public wants.
Deb Merskin, an associate professor in the school of journalism at the University of Oregon and co-author of "Critical Thinking about Sex, Love and Romance in Mass Media," said viewers need to be savvy media consumers as well.
MUSIC
"If a viewer says to him or herself, 'I wish I could find someone like that', it is good to remember what he or she is watching is an actor playing a role, not a real human relationship." Merskin said in an email. "Be mindful that media representations are designed to sell one-dimensional stories about love, life and relationships that have little to no relationship to the challenges of the real world."

Paisley's 'Accidental Racist' draws attention to new album
MCCLATCHY TRIBUNE
BRAD PAISLEY "Wheelhouse"
Grade: B-minus
Brad Paisley has decided to take control of things.
While his 2011 album "This Is Country Music" was a little too agreeable and pandering, on "Wheelhouse" (Arista Nashville) he is out to ruffle some feathers. It's his first self-produced album, and all 14 songs were written or co-written by Paisley, which turns out to be both a blessing and a curse.
Paisley offers plenty of worthy new entries to his already-lengthy catalog of country hits.
"Beat This Summer" is a catchy, carefree tribute to seasonal love, while "Southern Comfort Zone" celebrates life in Tennessee. He's at his best, though, on "Death of a Single Man," where he travels from sly Lyle Lovett country to guitar showcase and back again, as he laments the effect of a friend's marriage on his poker game.
It's clear, though, that Paisley needs the occasional outside voice of reason. Maybe the nonsensical nature of "I Can't Change the World," where he argues that changing his woman's world won't have any effect on anything else, can be forgiven as a sales-pitch love song. However,
when he tries to tackle race relations in "Accidental Racist," with a non-apology apology for wearing a Confederate flag T-shirt, things go wrong, even though LL Cool J's rap cameo helps a little. And Paisley's odd defense of Christians in "Those Crazy Christians" may not actually deliver the point he's trying to make.
"Wheelhouse" would be a lot stronger if Paisley would have sought a little more input on some of these songs and taken a little more advice.

the sophomore posted a 2-4 night at the plate alongside two stolen bases, three runs and an RBI on a night in which the layhawks
jumped to the early lead with 12 hits for the game.
"We've been putting more emphasis on putting pressure on a team early in the game," Suiter said. "It definitely pays off later in games just like it did today."
Suiter singled in the Jayhawks' first run of the game with a shot up the middle to center field that scored sophomore second baseman Justin Protocio. Senior shortstop Kevin Kuntz advanced to third on the play and later scored on a throwing error committed by Iowa freshman catcher Blake Hickman on a Suiter stolen base.
"His bat is hot," Kansas coach Ritch Price said, "He's playing like
one of the better players in our great conference right now."
Kansas continued to score in the top of the second as Justin Protacio singled in sophomore rightfielder Connor McKay.
"We did a really good job of executing our short game on offense again," Price said. "We ran the bases well, and guys clutched up with runners in scoring position early in the game and gave us some breathing room."
Kansas pitching stepped up in the shadow of a recent change in the pitching rotation that gave sophomore right-hander Robert Kahana, usually a late-inning reliever, the opportunity to start.
Kahana responded well to the challenge by submitting a fiveinning performance. He gave up two earned runs on seven hits while sending two Hawkeyes to the bench on strikes.
"I really enjoy starting," Kahana said. "Just knowing that the team is relying on you to fill up the zones and continue to get out."
For most relievers moving to a starting role, higher pitch counts are a cause for concern. For Kahana, the extended performance showed few effects.
"My arm feels good right now," Kahan said. "It wasn't anything different."
Sophomore right-hander Drew
Morovick closed the game with a four-inning save, his first of the season, giving up one run on two hits with three strikeouts.
Kansas pitching benefited from another solid defensive day for Jayhawk middle infielders.

"Our middle infield was fabulous today,"
Price said. "The two double plays that were turned were outstanding. Protocacio is turning double plays as good as anyone in the country."

Royals win as Guthrie snags seventh straight
ASSOCIATED PRESS
The Royals, who had not scored in the first two innings in their first seven games, sent nine to the plate in a five-run first. Mike Pelfrey (1-1) gave up hits to the first five batters he faced.
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Jeremy Guthrie won his career-best seven straight decision, dating to last season, and Alcides Escobar had three hits and an RBI as the Kansas City Royals beat the Minnesota Twins 7-4 Tuesday night.
Joe Mauer, Josh Willingham and Eduardo Escobar — the first of his career — each hit solo homers to keep the Twins close.
Guthrie (2-0) has a 2.37 ERA during the stretch, allowed four runs on six hits, including the three home runs, in 6 2/3 innings.
Greg Holland picked up the save. Holland struck out Mauer to end the game, logging his second save in three chances.
After Mauer gave the Twins a 1-0 lead in the first, Alex Gordon and Escobar got things started for the Royals with singles. Billy Butler doubled down the left-field line to score Gordon, Mike Moustakas singled home Escobar, and Salvador Perez doubled home Butler.
Eric Hosmer's groundout scored Moustrak, and Lorenzo Cain's two-out single scored Perez.
Escobar drove in a run in the second to make it 5-2, but Gordon opened the Royals' half of the second with a triple and scored on Alcides Escobar's single.
After Willingham's homer in the third, the Royals scored their final run on Jeff Francoeur's double that scored Hosmer.
Eduardo Escobar went deep in the fifth to cap the scoring.
The Royals, who had a 12-game losing streak last April, have won three straight and five of six.

TRIVIA OF THE DAY Q: When is the spring football game for Kansas?
A: April 13, 2013 (This Saturday!)
— KU Athletics
THE MORNING BREW Sports not just about competition
This past weekend in the world of sports, we saw everything. We saw history heartbreaks surprises.
history, heartbreaks, surprises, and inspiration. The sports world realized once again that sports aren't always about competition. Rather, sports are about what makes a team or an individual great. This isn't about Louisville's men and women's basketball teams both making it to their respective championship games. It's not about how both Cy Young winners struggled in their respective games. This article is about a 7-year-old-boy who lived the dream of a lifetime.

Last Saturday, the University of Nebraska Cornhuskens football team held their spring game at their Memorial Stadium. Like any other spring game, it showed the fans how their football team is preparing and how they look for the upcoming season. What made this spring game spectacular wasn't the football team. It wasn't Bo Pelini and the rest of his coaching staff. The
spectacular moment came from 7-year-old Jack Hoffman. What does a little kid have to do with the Nebraska football program? Everything.
Hoffman became the team's inspiration for not only this game, but for next year and the years to follow. Hoffman has brain cancer and has gone through two surgeries and is in the middle of a 60-week chemotherapy regimen to suppress his tumor. In this game, Hoffman had the most running
yards out of all of the running backs with 69 yards. He did that in one play, getting the handoff from quarterback Taylor Martinez. He ran the ball toward the left side of the line before cutting back and swinging to the right of the pack, carrying the ball all the way to the end zone for the touchdown. Going along with the play, the rest of the players followed, jogging behind Hoffman waving and clapping their hands in the air as the crowd of 60,174 stood, applauded, and cheered him on into the end zone. After scoring, the football team lifted Jack into the air, letting him enjoy the moment as his father watched from the sideline with tears in his eyes.
Jack wore the number 22, the same number as star runningback Rex Burkhead. Burkhead, who couldn't attend due to preparations for the NLAF, draft, had befriended Hoffman during treatment, and with the help of teammates and staff, they were able to make that play happen. It brought both
KU
sides even closer to each other and created something that both will never forget.
Right now, Hoffman is on a two-week break from the chemotherapy regimen. A recent MRI scan from the Children's Hospital in Boston, where Hoffman was being treated, showed that the tumor has shrunk tremendously within the past year. What the Nebraska football team showed in this game was not only inspiration and appreciation, but why we love sports. The best stories come from the greatest moments. Thank you Nebraska. You captivated the hearts of every sports fan.

Rutgers University Board of Governors discusses coaching adviser
NEWARK, N.J. — Rutgers University is pledging to get to the bottom of how a basketball coach who kicked and shoved players and used gay slurs as he yelled at them was allowed to stay
on the job — and to make sure the same thing isn't happening in other sports.
Mike Rice.
The university said Monday that the school's Board of Governors would meet Thursday to discuss hiring an adviser to report on what went wrong with
University President Robert Barchi said that employees are going through practice session videos from other sports to see if any other troubling behavior needs to be rooted out.
The scandal has had far-reach
ing implications on the university's athletic department.
Rice was fired on April 3, a day after a video of him at practice was made public. Athletic Director Tim Perrett later resigned, as did an assistant basketball coach and the university's top in-house
lawver.
On Monday, the university chose former dean Carl Kirschner to serve as athletic director while they search for someone to fill the job permanently.
There's been widespread anger over the video, which was presented to university officials in November by a former basketball program employee who last week sued the university, claiming he was let go because he was a whistle-blower.
Gov. Chris Christie said at a news conference Monday that
Rice needed to be fired promptly and that his antics cost him credibility with athletes and their families.
"What parent would let this animal back into their living room to try to recruit their son after this video?" he asked.

COMMENTARY McLemore can still affect Kansas
By Mike Vernon
mvernon@kansan.com
W that can a player do for a school once he's gone?
kansan.com
Maybe that doesn't sound right.
Perhaps the word "do" isn't best.
Maybe the question should be:
How can a player change a school once he's left it?
If there were any player capable of altering what Kansas basketball is right now, it's Ben McLemore.
Chances are, you were in class at 2:30, or streamed the press conference, just followed it on Twitter, heard from a friend or all of the above. But the clock struck that time on Tuesday, and Ben McLemore made the — absolutely fair — decision to declare for the NBA Draft.
That was no surprise.
That is no surprise, either.
That was no surprise.
ESPN's draft expert Chad Ford tweeted that McLemore is likely a top-five pick.
That is no surprise either. McLemore is not the first Jayhawk to leave early for the NBA Draft and he won't be the last. Even though he's gone, he can still be incredibly important to Bill Self and Kansas basketball.
You see, there are certain names that still resonate in Lawrence that are fairly irrelevant elsewhere. Names such as Cole Aldrich, Xavier Henry and, of course, Josh Selby still have meaning in Lawrence. At the same time, it wouldn't be fair to forget about Miami Heat starter Mario Chalmers, and Brandon Rush, who tore two ligaments in his left knee just as his career seemed to pick up steam.
Sure, some of the other aforementioned names have had their moments in the league, but they haven't exactly become household names across the country outside of their careers at Kansas.
Ben McLemore has that chance.
He has a chance to be the first pick in the draft. He has a chance to be a longtime NBA starter. And he has a chance to be an NBA All-Star.
How can this help Self and the Jayhawks? Some players have been able to alter the reputations their programs. Kansas has a great reputation, but it's not for churning out NBA All-Stars.
Take Derrick Rose and Kevin Durant, for example. Derrick Rose went first in the NBA draft and helped to give John Calipari his reputation of the nation's best recruiter. Kevin Durant still wears his Texas gear, and has probably been a big selling point for Rick Barnes.
But he has a chance to be great.
He can help the Jayhawks. And
he can help them change their
reputation.
Rose and Durant are two great players. No one knows how good Ben McLemore will be.
When a recruit comes to Allen Fieldhouse and sees the names and faces on the wall, he could look up and see McLemore's image and think to himself, "I could be the next Ben McLemore."
One player can change a program. It's been done before and will be done again.
It's that simple. A great player becomes a selling point.
Will Ben McLemore be one of those players? We'll have to wait and see.

Ben McLemore, along with head coach Bill Self, answers questions at a press conference held for the announcement that McLemore would be entering the NBA Draft. McLemore emphasized how much he had come to learn at the University and that he would never forget his coaches, teammates and fans.
SO LONG, FAREWELL
Freshman guard Ben McLemore declares for NBA Draft
gcalvert@kansan.com
GEOFFREY CALVERT
calvert@kansan.com
Sitting inside Alen Fieldhouse on a dark, overcast Lawrence afternoon, coach Bill Self couldn't contain his smile as he quipped about how he expected freshman guard Ben McLemore to announce he would return for his sophomore year.
That remark drew quite a few laughs as the Jayhawks' all-time leading freshman scorer had already revealed his true plans for next season.
"I made the decision that I was going to enter the NBA Draft," McLemore said. "My teammates and the coaches, they definitely said 'if it's your time, it's your time.' It was my time."
McLemore, who hasn't hired an agent yet, said he didn't expect to play only one year of basketball at Kansas after sitting out last season
as a redshirt because he was a partial qualifier. But he averaged 15.9 points per game to lead the jayhawks in scoring and finished the year with 589 points.
If he had stayed four years at Kansas and scored at the same rate he did last season, he would have left school as the Jayhawks' second-leading career scorer behind Danny Manning's 2,951 points.
"Really there was no decision to be made," Self said. "I think that anybody with a clear conscience at all would have to say, 'Hey, go for it when the time's right,' and the time is definitely right."
Although McLemore said this was the right decision for his family, he wiped away tears as he exited
Chad Ford of ESPN slotted McLemore third in his first mock draft, while draftexpress.com projects McLemore as the second pick, and nabrad.net picked him first overall in its current mock draft.
through the Fieldhouse concourse with family members. McLemore loved the fans at Kansas, and thanked them several times during the press conference. He often attended women's games, in part to sign autographs for fans. He's so nice, Self said, that it isn't always positive for him as a basketball player, because he sometimes needs to adopt a mean streak.
Self said McLemore told him as late as February that he planned to return for his sophomore campaign, although Self joked that McLemore wasn't willing to make a public announcement about that proclamation. Even if McLemore did want to return, Self would advise him it would be in his best interest to turn pro.
"If he told me that he wanted to come back I would tell him, 'Well Ben, we need to look at this again.' Self said. "I don't think there was one time that our staff
sat around this year and said "We hope Ben comes back." That didn't happen once."
The NCAA ruled McLemore a partial qualifier last season, meaning he could practice with Kansas during the second semester of the 2011-2012 season but could not play. Freshman forward Jamiari Traylor was in the same circumstance, and McLemore said he developed a special relationship with Traylor because it.
Traylor and most of the other Jayhawks attended McLemore's announcement.
McLemore said one of his goals has always been to eventually provide for his family, as he grew up in poverty in St. Louis. Being a certain lottery pick in the NBA Draft gives McLemore the ability to do that.
"Growing up with not having a lot, I don't need to talk about what I don't have," McLemore said. "I."
just talk about what I want to try to get and try to help my family, Being little, growing up, you just think about you want to provide for your family."
McLemore's departure means Self must replace all five of his starters for the first time since losing his starters from the 2008 national championship team. Mario Chalmers was one of those starters that season, and he now plays for the Miami Heat, a team that McLemore said he's always been partial to. But he said he doesn't have a preference which team selects him. As Self noted, it probably won't be the Heat, which has the NBA's best record.
"You're not going to fail to [pick No.] 30, bud." Self said, laughing.

Ben's best moments as a Jayhawk
1) Kansas was in serious danger of opening the Big 12 season with a loss until Ben McLemore hit a bank-shot that will be remembered in Lawrence as well as any other. The bucket sent the game into overtime, giving McLemore five more minutes of unstoppable scoring. He would finish with his first career 30-point game and Kansas won 97-89 against Iowa State.
BLAKE SCHUSTER
bschuster@kansan.com
2) Do you remember where you were the first time Air McLemore took flight? The Jayhawks had edged out Oregon State 84-78 at
the Sprint Center in Kansas City, but the game sticks out because of McLemore's dunk from the free throw line that showcased just what kind of ups this kid has. McLemore finished with his second 20-point game of the season.
3) During the Jayhawks biggest nonconference game, their most talented player shined brightest. McLemore marched into Columbus, Ohio and scored 22 points while grabbing six rebounds against the Buckeyes. Kansas went on to win. 74-66.
4) As the season continued, McLemore got more creative with his mid-air acrobatics. And he made sure to save 'his best
for primetime. During an ESPN Gameday meeting with Texas, McLemore put down an emphatic 360 degree dunk as the Jayhawks put the finishing touches on a 73-47 torching of the Longhorns.
5) After slumping through his previous four games, Kansas fans were just waiting for McLemore to show the NCAA Tournament why Jayhawks fans had raved about him all year. And in his last game in a Kansas uniform, McLemore delivered, shooting 8-15 with four 3-pointers and finishing with 20 points.

"If you join only one whimsical secret society this year," reads Wonder Fair's description of its current exhibition, "make it the Secret Order of the Black Diamond."
Wonder Fair, located at 803 1/2 Massachusetts Street just above the Casbah, is the open secret of Lawrence's art scene. Hidden above its glass door and a narrow, wooden staircase, the art gallery and studio is one of a handful of upstairs downtown businesses that thrive as shops even without a window display to attract foot traffic.
"In that way, we are kind of like a secret society already," said Meredith Moore, the owner and curator. "So we took it a step further with The Secret Order of the Black Diamond and made it a secret society, fully fledged -- secret codes, secret handshakes, secret passwords, the whole nine yards."
ters degree in art history from the University in 2009, considers the Secret Order of the Black Diamond a treasure-hunting adventure in Lawrence as much as an art exhibition, since all artwork is hosted

in just three weeks allows the Wonder Fair to present the exhibition/ adventure free of charge for participants. In thanks, Moore has sent over 60 mysterious scents to her donors.
"From the beginning, we knew that the point of this project was partially giving back to the community and partially recognizing that not everyone can afford to pay into an art community but everyone should be able to get something out of it," Moore said.
Since its foundation in April
2008, Wonder Fair displays and sells artwork with a style that fuses a nostalgic, hokey throwback to the 1950s with clean, modern, commercial design, marked by the Futura font of a Wes Anderson film. Wonder Fair, Moore said, tries not to take itself too seriously; she believes that artwork should be comforting, not intimidating or condescending.
"We're more interested in the wider social class market," Moore said. "Everyone should be able to afford art."
The Lost Print artists whose screen prints are available in the treasure troves include Kaye Blegvad, an illustrator from New York, Randy Regier, a sculptor working in Wichita, Brady Vest, the main artist at Hammerpress Letterpress and Design in Kansas City, Luke Ramsey, a screenprint artist from Canada, and Gary Baseman, a multi-media artist from California.
an official member of The Secret Order of the Black Diamond can report to Wonder Fair during regular hours to sign a letterpressed, black-on-black membership card with invisible ink and be taught the secret handshake.

"Everyone should like hunting, for free treasure," Moore said. "No one won't like this treasure unless they really hate fun."
For more information about the next secret event which may or may not take place on Wednesday. April 17, visit wonderfair.com/blackdiamond. The treasure boxes will never be collected by Wonder Fair so participants are welcome to hunt in weeks to come.
"No one should get arrested looking for our treasure -- we hope," Moore joked, unwilling to disclose any of the treasure boxes' locations.

STATE
New Kansas DUI laws could increase offenders' charges
MATTHEW JOHNSON
mjohnson@kansan.com
Because of a new law passed unanimously by the Kansas Legislature on March 21, driving under the influence in Kansas is about to become even more dangerous.
If a driver injures someone while under the influence of alcohol or drugs, he or she could, if the bill is signed into law, be charged with aggravated battery on top of a DUI.
However, in a 1998 Kansas Supreme Court case, State v Huser, the court ruled that driving under the influence on its own was not enough to convict a defendant of aggravated battery in an injury case.
In House Bill 2218, aggravated battery, a felony charge, is defined as "knowingly causing great bodily harm to another person or disfigurement of another person." This contrasts with misdemeanor battery, defined in the bill as "knowingly or recklessly causing bodily harm to another person."
A portion of the Court's decision read "simply driving under the influence does not, standing alone, amount to reckless behavior. One's behavior is only reckless if he or she realizes that his or her conduct creates imminent danger
to another person but consciously and unjustifiably disregards the danger"
Furthermore, the Supreme Court argued, "to convict the defendant of reckless aggravated battery, the State had to prove that she caused bodily harm to the victims by driving recklessly." The State did not, so its appeal failed.
On August 26, 2012, Colby Liston, a freshman from Derby, was hit by Julian M. Kuszmaul's vehicle on Tennessee Street. Liston was climbing into the back of another car when he was hit and pinned between the two vehicles. Kuszmaul had a blood alcohol content of 0.25, more than three times the legal limit of 0.08.
"It should be aggravated battery because you're the one drinking and driving," Newman said, "and you know you're not fully there when you're drunk."
Ashley Newman, a junior at the University, thinks the aggravated battery provision makes sense.
As a result of the accident, both of Liston's legs were amputated.
Kuszmawl was only convicted of misdemeanor DUI, outraging Liston's family. Under the new law, Kuszmawl would have been vulnerable to a felony aggravated battery charge as well.
This is one of the reasons why Douglas County District Attorney
Onartes Branson expressed his support of the bill.
"I am very pleased that this bill appears to be ready for the Governor's signature," Branson said. "This legislation will help close a gap in the prosecution of DUI cases when someone is injured as a result of a DUI accident."
Bailey Reed, a junior at the University, agreed that a misdemeanor DUI charge is not enough in injury cases.
"I'd be furious if a friend of mine was badly injured in an accident and the drunk driver responsible was punished only with a DUI," Reed said.
A Senate Conference Committee report was adopted on April 4, and the bill will now head to Gov. Brownback's desk.

Tornadoes still a threat despite current conditions
JENNA JAKOWATZ
jjakowatz@kansan.com
Last April, an EF3 tornado ripped through the Wichita area and caused $283 million in damages.
Although conditions this season are not as favorable to produce tornadoes, it does not necessarily mean that we will see a shortage.
"We are currently under ENSO-neutral conditions, and projections indicate that the neutral conditions will persist through the summer. Other factors come into play as well, but presently there are no other strong indications of an above or below average spring for tornadoes," said David Rahn, a professor in the University atmospheric science department.
Rahn said the 2011 tornado season had an unusually high number of tornadoes that coincided with La Niña conditions, which refers to particularly cool
temperatures.
"An average still means a lot of tornadoes for Kansas," Rahn said. "For the period 1991 to 2010, there was an average of 96 tornadoes per year that occurred in Kansas, according to the National Climatic Data Center."

"I always wonder if a tornado has actually touched down or if there's only a funnel cloud, but I certainly don't wait to find out before heading to shelter."
Rachel Pantle, a senior from Salina, said hearing the sirens are a part of any Kansan's spring, but once she hears them, she doesn't stick around to watch.

Faculty members unsure of future due to pending budget cut
MARSHALL SCHMIDT mschmidt@kansan.com
Thirty-eight University faculty members will lose their jobs if Kansas House legislatures approve a four percent budget cut to higher education currently under consideration, said Chancellor Bernadette Gray-Little in an open letter released Monday. Gray-Little said the $20.3 million cut to the University, which ignores Gov. Sam Brownback's recommendation of flat funding for higher education next year, would
result in cutbacks to academic programs.
"This would hurt students, as well as the broader economy, which can't grow without our graduates," Gray-Little said. "We could not replace faculty who have departed for other universities."
University of Kansas Medical Center, Gray-Little said, would see more than a 10 percent reduction in funding — $11.4 million — despite a growing shortage of medical professionals in the state.
Cuts to higher education funding make up 40 percent of all proposed House budget cuts, said Mary Jane Stankiewicz, Director of Government Relations & Communications for the Kansas Board of Regents in a release.
Increased budget constraints would result in the University offering fewer classes and not conducting its annual search for new faculty, said Timothy Caboni, Vice Cancellor for Public Affairs.
"That will have a direct effect on students," Caboni said. "The great faculty that we have now and want to retain, the likelihood of us being able to do that is decreased."
State funding per student has decreased from $15,030 in 1999 to $9,559 in 2013 and overall annual state funding for the University has decreased by $124.4 million dollars during the past 14 years, according to the Office of Public Affairs at the University.
As students' tuition already pays for more than half of the cost of their education, further cuts would affect the core functions, teaching and research, of the University, Caboni said.
"That sends a message nationally about the importance of higher education in the state of Kansas," Caboni said. "You could not make all of that of that up with tuition."
While the cutbacks are not necessarily inevitable, said Gray-Little, any University level budget reductions would be in accordance with the University's strategic initiative, Bold Aspirations.
Despite the proposed cuts, Caboni said the House and Senate Conference Committee agreed last week to reexamine the across
the board cuts to higher education.
"I remain optimistic that the Senate, House and the conference committee will come to a reasonable solution," Caboni said. "Hopefully the solution to which they come will be the one proposed by the governor in his budget."

Rain makes life much better, really
I'm afraid to write the next sentence because so many people will think it's typical of me, and they will realize that calling me "Grimpy Cat Dylan" is now completely justified. But I love rain more than anything. I recently wrote that snow was the worst thing to ever exist (which is indisputable fact), and it only makes sense that I fully report my weather preferences and let you know that rain is much better.
Maybe I am grumpy cat. Maybe it's just my personality to love something so gloomy. Maybe it's because I listened to emo music in high school, and loving rain and darkness is just the next step to my progression to full on depression.
No, that's not true. I'm not on my way to full-on depression. I dare you to find someone who laughs as much as me and jokes around as much as me, I mean,
yeah. I love all those gloomy things. But I don't love rain because I'm a gloomy, grumpy, horrible person. I love rain because it's more like real life than any other weather.
We all want life to be like a sunny summer day that has birds chirping, dogs playing in the yard and people grilling burgers as if there aren't any real issues to worry about. I want this, too. But if I had that every single day of my life, it would get pretty annoying and depressing. Everything can't be perfect forever. It loses meaning.

Even comedian and former "MadTV" star Will Sasso agree. In a recent Vine video posted to Sasso's twitter account, he said, "I like it when it rains in LA, because it's a nice change of pace from our usual weather."
Sasso did post this Vine in jest, tagging it with the "#SincereVine" hashtag and meaning it as a
change of pace from his normally hilarious Vine videos that are all jokes and not sincere at all. Much like Sasso's Vine that changes pace, the rain does the same thing for me in Kansas.
But rain isn't just a change of pace. It's also what signifies that we are finally in spring, the most beautiful season of all, especially because summer in Kansas can get pretty brutal. Rain means that we are finally leaving snowy winter days, and we aren't yet close to miserable 100-degree days in the summer.

Every summer, Kansas seems to go into Drought Mode and deprives us of those changes of pace. We sit around complaining about how hot it is and how we wish it was fall already.
When those 100-degree days
But that's when rain makes its biggest difference. Sometimes Mother Nature throws us a curveball in late July and pours water from the heavens. Those awful sticky summer days are now very manageable (and sometimes gloriously refreshing) summer days where the temperature drops from higher than 100 to mid-70s. Now that's a change of pace.

But rain doesn't just make life better by affecting the weather. It also affects many aesthetically pleasing things. Take the Flint Hills for example. Would you rather have fields that are bright yellow because the grass of the most beautiful part of Kansas is dead, or would you rather have it
Rain doesn't have to be gloomy or sad. It doesn't have to signify depression. It doesn't have to be the cause of your lack of energy.
You can even say that rain makes your day better by washing away all those student senate chalkings around campus you all love to complain about (this has been mentioned by several students this week).
Instead of being those awful things, rain can be happiness that gives this earth some real life. So, who's the grumpy cat now: Me, or all you losers that complain about a few drops of water that fell from the sky?

TRANSPORTATION
Motorcycles more accessible for campus and town driving
Motorcycles are among the most energy- and time-efficient means of transportation on a college campus. Of course, walking or pedaling your traditional bike won't emit carbon dioxide into the air, but they also won't get you to your 7:30 a.m. final on time when you sleep in until 7:25. Motorcycles are a great option for college students operating on a tight budget, and they might be the most exhilarating ride of your life. Your biggest challenge will be convincing your mother. Allow me to help you with that.
By RJ Zeiler
rzeiler@kansan.com
The first thing you'll need before you start to seriously consider a motorcycle is a license to ride it. It'll cost about $30 to take the skills test and get a Ciass M designation on your driver's license.
Similarly to a 16 year-old taking a driving test, however, the DMV won't actually teach you how to ride the bike, so that's up to you to figure out. You have a couple of options here. Either go to the Motorcycle Safety Foundation (www.msf-usa.org) to take a $120 class, or teach yourself. Bennett Golubski, a junior from Lenexa who rides a 2004 Kawasaki Ninja 500, said "riding is a pretty easy skill to learn, but can be difficult to master. I had a buddy help me learn the basics and taught myself the rest with research and experience."
Next, you'll need to pick out your set of wheels. Browsing the online listings is a great way to get started, and there are plenty of great deals out there to be had. If you're looking for a sport bike, it's typically not too difficult to
find a lightly-used late model bike for less than $3,000. If you're in the market for a big cruiser, you might need to increase your budget a few thousand dollars. If the need for speed isn't top priority here, motor scooters and mopeds are a solid option for short airstairs around campus.
Motor scooters require a motorcycle license, but mopeds — which are defined as vehicles that can't exceed 30 miles per hour — don't require any special licensure.
Before you find that perfect bike, you'll want to consider what it costs to own it. As long as your driving record isn't filled with violations, your insurance won't be a huge deal, probably not more than $15 per month.
Parking your moped or motor cycle on campus is far easier than parking a car, with plenty of spots and a permit that reasonably costs about $50 for the academic year.
You'll need some accessories when you get your bike, primarily a helmet and jacket. The cost of these essentials can vary anywhere from about $200 for entry-level equipment to well over $1,000 for a full set of professional protective gear. Most of us aren't racing our bikes on the weekends, so the entry-level gear will probably suit you just fine until you decide it's time to go to
the next level.
Maintenance on a motorcycle is not nearly as difficult as maintenance on a car. Ali Zaidi, a junior from Lawrence who rides a 2008 Kawasaki Ninja 250, said "Mechanically speaking, motorcycles are very easy to fix yourself. They don't have the complex electronics of a car, and many modern bikes are carbureted, which makes adjustments and maintenance fairly simple to do yourself."
Filling your bike's gas tank is where the big savings come over a car. Even riding it hard and accelerating quickly, most bikes with 250-500 cubic centimeter engines won't get any worse than 30 miles per gallon. Driving it lightly, you can get north of 80 miles per gallon, or 150 if you're on a smaller moped or scooter. Even riding the bike daily, most riders don't stop at the gas station more than once per month, and don't spend more than $10-$15 for a full tank.
Now that your head is satisfied with the purchase of a motorcycle, satisfy your heart by imagining a ride through the beautiful University campus on a sunny spring day, or accelerating around a tight bend on some back road outside of town. Sure, you'll probably just be riding it to class every day, but just imagine how much more enjoyable your daily commute is on the saddle of this incredible machine. If you've never ridden a motorcycle, the ride is unlike anything you've experienced before. But it's something of which you can enjoy both the practicality and the exhilaration.

Dress appropriately for spring weather
As the weather warms and the sun begins to rear its wondrous head from behind the eternal gloom that has been winter, we are blessed with days so beautiful that Van Gough would weep like a schoolgirl.
I'm sure we can all agree that this past winter was by far one of the most annoying and tumultuous winters of our lives, or so it seemed. Alas, we are here, spring! But as we know, Kansas always has another trick up her sleeve — that temptress. So here's some advice on what to do about this Kansas spring weather.
ALWAYS KEEP AN UMBRELLA IN YOUR BACKPACK.
This comes in handy in more than the occasion of rain. Fellas, perhaps you're courting a young woman in the Underground and once you step outside it's too bright to hold her gaze. Simply whip out your umbrella and shield her beauty from the sun! This will not only make you look like a gentleman, but also a wizard. Okay, maybe not a wizard but who else carries around an umbrella?
NEVER, EVER, EVER WALK OUT
THE DOOR WITHOUT A JACKET

By Brett Crawford
bcrawford@kansan.com
I can't tell you how many times I've been caught with my pants down — so to speak — when the weather takes a drastic change for the worse leaving me freezing in the middle of downtown with blocks to walk before I get back to the warmth of my home. I know you'll consider it cumbersome to haul a hoodie around all night. But trust me,
once you're making your way back from the bars at closing time, and that sweet little honey gets cold and looks at you for comfort, you can throw your jacket on and tell her she should have planned ahead!
SUNGLASSES AND SUNBLOCK. ALWAYS.
Even if you leave the house in the dreariest, most disgusting spring weather imaginable, you bet your boots you need a pair of sunglasses and a bottle of sunblock. After you get out of class and the clouds have rolled away, you'll be left looking like a schmuck standing in the heat like a dingus. No one wants that, do we? Remember; it is not creepy to have your roommate lather up your back with sunblock if you return the favor!
Other than that, I feel like you can figure the rest out as you go. Spring is a great transitory period of our lives, and it's important to remember not to take anything too seriously during this season. That includes school.

Aaron sat in his living room with a couple of close friend staring at a lighter and glass pipe. He was still in high school at the time, but that didn't mean he was naive. Having already smoked pot, he wanted to try something new. So when one of his friends started loading a bowl with K2, everyone else was down to smoke it.
K2, THE DANGEROUS COUSIN OF WEED
+
The once-legal substitute for marijuana causes health issues
Aaron, who is now a fourth-year medical student at the University of Kansas Medical Center, said that K2 felt different from weed the first dozen or so times he smoked it. "We were very giggly. It was a strong body and head high," he said.
"K2, in my medical opinion, is dangerous," Aaron said.
As a fan of the K2 high, Aaron and his buddies decided to start making their own. They bought the main ingredient — the powder form of a molecule named JWH-018 — online and gathered ammonia, tea leaves and a spray bottle from local stores. The process was quite simple. All they did was mix ammonia and the powder in the spray bottle, spritz it onto the tea leaves, and let the ammonia evaporate. The remaining product looked like dried up green herbs.
He now feels strongly that no one, let alone those who do not understand what K2 is and what it does to the body, should smoke K2. Aaron is not alone in his opinion. Doctors, researchers and even the government agree. Although K2 was supposed to be a legal substitute for marijuana, it has proven to be even more dangerous that the naturally found drug.
"It was cheaper, stronger and more badass to make our own." Aaron said.
A BRIEF HISTORY OF FAKE WEED
The thrill of the high didn't last long. After smoking K2 about three dozen times, Aaron decided to stop. The drug was wreaking havoc on his body. Smoking K2 was giving him panic attacks, heart palpitations, elevated blood pressure and worst of all: the feeling of impending doom.
K2 is the generic name for synthetic marijuana. According to a Center for Disease Control report, it was first used recreationally in Europe, where it was known

About six or seven years ago, scientists were interested in how marijuana compounds affected the brain, said Vimal Chadha, a pediatric kidney specialist at Children's Mercy Hospital in Kansas City. Instead of going through all of the government regulations to work with an illegal drug, the scientists decided to make their own synthetic marijuana compounds, known as synthetic cannabinoids.
Scientists were also researching the compounds as a possible treatment method for cancer patients, said Uttam Garg, director of toxicology at Children's Mercy Hospital. Because cannabinoids are the components of marijuana that control nausea and stimulate appetite, they could be especially helpful for patients undergoing chemotherapy.
as "Spice." But surprisingly, the synthetic marijuana compounds were not initially made for recreational use; they were made for medical research.

But in 2011, synthetic cannabinoid compounds became Schedule I drugs, which meant they were illegal for both recreational and medical use. Suddenly, the federal government entered the scene with highly publicized federal raids and investigations of shops selling K2, including Herbs (formally known as Sacred Journev) in Lawrence.
However, synthetic marijuana did not remain solely in the laboratory for long. The CDC reported that K2 soon became popular as a recreational drug. The stilllegal compound was cheap, easily accessed, undetectable by drug tests and caused a more intense high than natural marijuana.
Lawrence bartender Eva Nelson said she initially wanted to try K2 because it was legal. A couple of years ago she heard about "legal pot" on the news, so when her friend bought a baggie of K2 from a store on Massachusetts Street, she was curious enough to give it a go. In fact, it was so legal at the time that they rolled it up and smoked it in the middle of a crowd on the patio of the Replay Lounge.
NOT ALL FUN AND GAMES
In a 2011 Clinical Toxicology paper, researchers described why K2 is much harasser on the body than natural marijuana. According to the paper, both marijuana and K2 compounds attach to the same receptors in
So why did K2 go from being a legal high to a Schedule 1 drug? It has everything to do with how synthetic marijuana attacks the body.

JURASSIC PARK
ASSOCIATED PRESS
Tim (Joseph Mazello) hides from a pair of ravenous velociraptors in Steven Spielberg's "Jurassic Park," the latest modern classic to receive a 3D re-release.
'Jurassic Park' in a new dimension
Just when you thought it was safe to plan a weekend excursion to a benevolent billionaire's newly completed theme park, life found a way to bring "Jurassic Park" back to the big screen. Nearly 20 years after dominating 1993's box office and demonstrating the shared miracle of CGI and Stan Winston's groundbreaking animatronics, I'm happy to report that Steven Spielberg's dinosaur opus has aged masterfully. In fact, it now bears the unmistakable whiff of a time-tested classic.
By Landon McDonald
lmcdonald@kansan.com
Watching "turacastic Park" at the age of four was a formative experience for me. I was crazy about dinosaurs at the time, and my older cousins had been raving about the movie for more than a year before. I finally convinced my parents to let me see it. I remember the whir of the VCR and the joy and dread that filled my heart when John Williams's ominous score kicked in. I remember a man in safari gear shouting orders while a member of his loading team was dragged and presumably eviscerated by an unseen monster. I remember the look of child-like wonder on the faces of two paleontologists (Sam Neill and Laura Dern) as park owner John Hammond (Richard Attenborough) to marvel at the impossible sight of a living, breathing brachiosaurus. I also remember hearing the concern in my dad's voice as he whispered in my ear. "It's only pretend, buddy." But it wasn't, not really. This was magic.
By the time the T. rex showed up to devour the hapless, toilet-bound Gennaro (martin Ferrero), I was head-over-heels in love, not only with "lurassic Park" but with cinema itself. One viewing was all it took to turn me into a lifelong movie geek (although Dern's khaki shorts didn't exactly hurt). True, I'd been weaned on Basil Ribbone and Nigel Bruce's "Sherlock Holmes" series and the full catalog of Universal Monster films, but "Jurassic Park" was what truly sealed my fate. I continued to watch it religiously for the balance of my childhood, or at least until I discovered the "Star Wars" trilogy.
Despite my Giganotosaurusized love for the film, or more than likely because of it, I was initially skeptical when it was first announced that "jurassic Park" would be receiving a 3-D re-release in honor of its 20th anniversary. On one hand, I'd never gotten the opportunity to see the original film in theaters, and I knew I would relish the chance to see it with a crowd, preferably at a fan convention dedicated to stammering chaos the theoretician Ian Malcolm (Jeff Goldblum). On the other hand, post-converted 3-D has a well-founded reputation for either ruining the movie it's applied to or failing to register at all.
As it turns out, my fears were largely unfounded. In fact, "Jurassic Park" boasts the most spectacular use of post-conversion 3-D I've ever seen, narrowly edging out last year's re-release of James Cameron's "Titanic." It turns out the "Jurassic Park" conversion was done with Spielberg's blessing, and the craft and dexterity with which the film has been restored is truly a marvel to behold. The images, never blurry or darkened, as are crisp and defined as they appear on my Blu-ray. The two scenes that benefit most from the added dimension are definitely the initial encounter with the T. rex and the still-harrowing kitchen scene between John Hammond's precocious grandkids and two hungry velociraptors.
The film's technical brilliance continues to impress, but what really struck me about "Jurassic Park" this time is its pitch-perfect casting. Although he was initially aired as a glorified stand-in for
Harrison Ford, Naill Neill does an admirable job nailing Dr. Grant's progression from crusty bone-duster to selfless father figure. Goldblum's character remains a charming synthesis of sleaze and sincerity, and his warning about the dangers of flippantly tinkering with genetics carries even more weight than it did in 1993.
The scene that sticks with me the most, however, has nothing to do with dinosaurs or the pros and cons of 3-D conversion, but it has everything to do with where Spielberg was in his career in 1993, when "Jurassic Park" and "Schindler's List" premiered within a few short months of each other. It's a simple dinner scene between Hammond and Derns' character Ellie Sattler. Hammond could almost be channeling Spielberg himself when he speaks of his obsession with benefiting others beyond the realm of mere entertainment: "I wanted to give them something that wasn't an illusion. Something that was real. Something they could see and touch, an aim not devoid of merit." Rest assured, sir. When it came to the merits of "Jurassic Park," you spared no expense.

Make the most of wedding season
Prince William and his bride Kate walk down the aisle at Westminster Abbey, following their marriage, in London. New bridal collections are dominated by dresses with no sleeves, even though that takes many women out of their comfort zone.
CALLAN REILLY creilly@kansan.com
Spring is in the air, which means wedding season is at its prime. If you're like me, then the biggest concern you have upon receiving a wedding invitation is what you're going to wear. Forget about the bride and groom, I need to go shopping. That very concern of mine has tripled — I've got three weddings to attend in a month and a half and zero idea of what to wear.
The main rule of dressing for weddings is to take the dress code to heart. You do not want to be the only one in a gown when everyone else is in sundresses and sandals. Take into consideration the venue or location as well. If it's a beach or outdoor wedding, the vibe will most likely be more casual, and you should definitely follow the rules.
Also a good note to take while choosing wedding guest attire is how appropriate an outfit choice is. The last thing you want is for the grandparents and the token creepy uncle staring at you instead of the bride. Despite the open bars and
massive amounts of fun, weddings are also sadly considered family events.
Most importantly, don't wear white. Or ivory, or eggshell, or tan for that matter. Bridezillas are real life creatures that still exist in today's society and you do not want to be responsible for creating another one. Be sure to feel confident and comfortable in whatever you're wearing, but remember, this isn't your moment to shine.
Avoid anything flamboyant or loud. Floral prints, lace and maxi length skirts and dresses are almost always safe options for weddings.
Allowing yourself plenty of time to find the right attire will help you avoid breaking any of these cardinal rules, and will surely have you find the perfect match. Your perfect match of clothing, that is.
Remember when this famous pair tied the knot in 2011? Probably not, because all of the buzz was about the bride's sister, Pipa Middleton. Don't be that girl this wedding season, and instead let the bride have her moment.

OFF AIR
ASSOCIATED PRESS
LOS ANGELES — A week after the death of "Buckwild" reality-TV star Shain Gandee, MTV has decided to cancel the series.
MTV series ends in the most tragic way
Production on the show's second season was suspended after news broke last week that the 21-year-old had been found dead in his truck, along with his uncle and a friend, after going "mudding" (off-road), near Sissonville, WVa.
The network ultimately decided not to move forward with the series, and episodes that had already been shot will not be aired.
The network issued the following statement:
"After careful consideration,
MTV will not be moving forward with season two of 'Buckwild' in West Virginia. We love the cast and the show, and this was not an easy decision, but given Shain's tragic passing and essential presence on the show, we felt it was not appropriate to continue without him. Instead, we are working on a meaningful way to pay tribute to his memory on our air and privately."
MTV plans to run a special, "Buckwild: WV to the NYC," on Sunday. It was shot before production had begun on the sophomore season, and will follow a marathon showing of the first season's episodes.

EVEN TOUGH GUYS CAN'T RESIST COCO
Pint-sized pup warms dad's heart, wins him over with charm
After weeks of persistent begging and dropping not-so-subtle hints, —changing the family computer's screen saver to a picture of the tiny, furry four-legged friend next to a Campbell's soup can is just one example — my dad finally gave in.
My sister, Kiley, and I religiously hounded my dad about the pint-sized pup that she fell in love with online. She wouldn't take no for an answer. My poor father, the only male in the family, didn't stand a chance. He attempted to delay the inevitable as long as possible, which only lasted about a week.
Slowly but surely, Kiley's puppy-dog eyes and my silver-tongued persuasion got to my dad. She finally broke down my dad's gruff, rough-around-the-edge attitude and found the loying, caring father within him.
CONTRIBUTED PHOTOS
"At this rate, the dogs will outnumber us," my dad said in a sarcastic tone, admitting his defeat.
The toy morkie—half maltese, half yorkie—was weeks away from becoming our newest family member and joining our other two dogs. My sister and I screamed and jumped in excitement as if it were Christmas morning.
Of course, there had to be rules. This dog was to teach my sister and me responsibility. The dog wasn't a family dog; it belonged to my sister and me. Step one of responsibility: the two of us had to pick up the precious pup because my dad wasn't going to sacrifice a Sunday afternoon watching football to retrieve a purse-sized dog. We were expected to take care of the new puppy, doing everything from feeding her to house breaking her.
It was Coco. The clever, skinny canine had squeezed herself through the wrought iron fence to escape the backyard to take a field trip. A different neighbor brought the social butterfly home every time. The entire family, even my dad, would hit the sidewalks of the neighborhood yelling Coco as we searched for her. This was the first sign he was warming up to her.
Every morning during my senior year of high school, my sister and 1 ate breakfast downstairs on the breakfast bar overlooking the front yard. One morning, only a week after having her, while looking outside trying to predict the weather, we saw a fur ball bolt across the front yard.
As reluctant as my dad was about adopting Coco, he didn't want anything to happen to her. Early Saturday morning, not even two weeks into having her, my dad lined our entire backyard fence with chicken wire so Coco couldn't pull any more unplanned excursions outside of her own backward oasis.

A month after living with us, Coco finally started to master the stairs. She always raced up and down the stairs with the other dogs. Despite having tiny legs, she was agile enough jump onto almost everything. And with her tiny frame, she could hide in any nook and cranny.
But one night, when playing with the other two dogs, she got too brave. My dad called all the dogs to go outside once more before bed, but Coco didn't come. Everyone was already asleep, so my dad went alone on a search-and-rescue mission for Coco. He searched the entire downstairs. Nothing. He then checked to make sure Coco wasn't in my sister's room. Again, nothing. He finally started softly yelling her name, "Coco."
Far from a manly dog, Coco still tried to win my dad over. She would catapult herself onto the couch and shower my dad with sloppy puppy kisses. My dad would always pick her up with one hand and put her back on the ground.
She then responded with a chirp. She was too dainty to bark. Listening closely to hear where the bark was coming from, my dad found Coco. She was stranded on the top stair of the spiral staircase. Her little legs weren't able to get her down. He picked her up and carried her all the way downstairs. Her heart was racing so fast from being scared her entire body was pulsing. Instead of throwing her in the backyard, Coco got to play in the front yard alone with my dad.
**Top:** Coco, three and half years old, rides shotgun on a Sunday afternoon with my dad to run errands around town.
**Bottom:** The precious dog on our computer's screen saver that helped convinced my dad.
From then on, every time my parents went upstairs to watch a movie my dad would carry Coco up and down the stairs. At first he acted as if he escorted her so she didn't get stuck on the stairs or trampled by the other dogs. But then he started picking up his little princess more and more. My sister and I began to tease him by repeating phrases he told us when we first brought Coco home.
"If you always carry her she won't know how to walk," we mocked in our best impression of his deep voice.
Soon enough, Coco started to reap the benefits of being top dog. My dad started taking his now six-pound princess with him to check the mail. He went as far to give her a nickname, Cokey. Once she realized she was getting preferential treatment from the man of the house, she poured on the charm. She perfectly obeyed his every word, and walked right beside him. She sat as if she were competing in a dog show and resisted the urge to bee for food during dinner.
Coco quickly became a man's best friend. She received treats under the table from my dad and her trips to the mailbox became a daily routine. She would lie next to him on the couch as he read the newspaper on Sundays.
Now that my sister and I are both at college, Coco gets all the attention. He sends pictures of his favorite family member playing in the yard with her new toys and riding shotgun in the car during errands.
My and my sister's love for Coco reminded our dad of us. Coco has become my dad's pseudo-replacement for his daughters off at college. He would never admit it, but he loves that dog. And from time to time, you can catch him picking her up and talking to her, whispering "I love you Cokey."

the brain: the cannabinoid receptors. They both turn these receptors on, but while the natural marijuana only partially activates them, K2 completely activates all of the cannabinoid receptors. Once turned on, the receptors activate the sympathetic nervous system, which is responsible for the body's fight-or-flight response. This is why K2 elevates heart rate, blood pressure and anxiety. Users have attributed the anxiety as an especially troubling side effect.
"The effects on mentation are powerful," former K2 user Aaron said. "It can easily lead to psychotic episodes."
Although no psychotic episodes were reported, many K2 users described common similarities in their mental states while using the drug, such as a feeling of numbness. Users said that while their bodies felt motionless, their brains felt as if they were working overtime, focusing intensely on little details. One user said he sunk into a sofa and remained there for two hours. Another said she sat down on a public bench and just stared ahead.
"Heavy' is a good word to describe it," said Jacob, a senior from Worcester, Mass. "Light-headed, but glued to mv seat."
HEALTH FROM PAGE 5A
Anxiety and paranoia were also commonly mentioned as side effects of the drug. One user said he was convinced a dog could feel his negative energy. He had first smoked K2 in a room full of people. It hit him all at once, and suddenly he felt as if he were being lifted up into the air. Then the anxiety hit. It was so bad that he had to excuse himself from his friends and go sit alone in another room. While he was trying to calm down, his friend's dog wandered up to him. The dog started barking nonstop, and he just knew that the dog knew he was high and could feel the anxiety and paranoia inside him. He never tried K2 again.
Still think K2 is just a regular ol' party drug? Then consider the following: Of the six people interviewed who have tried the drug, none still smoke it. Whether it took one try or 30, every one of them had a bad experience and stopped smoking K2.

Last year there were been between 500 to 1,000 national cases of acute kidney injury caused by suspected synthetic cannabinoid use, Chadha said. Locally, the Med Center confirmed such a case, Garg reported. The patient is likely the single confirmed case from Kansas in the CDC report published last month. The CDC wrote that this patient was under the influence of a K2 product named "Mr. Happy," which should now be avoided at all costs.
Although this instance of anxiety may seem laughable, not everyone has such a harmless experience. The Clinical Toxicology paper reports one intense anxiety attack that led a K2 user to commit suicide. Such cases have contributed heavily to the recent outlawing of the drug.
K2 abuse is always suspected when Chadha consults on a case involving a previously healthy adolescent. He blames the possible contaminants in synthetic marijuana. It is not a pure, controlled or FDA-approved substance, so the likelihood of contamination with unknown products is high. These contaminants can cause a short-term event where kidney function is deactivated and waste levels rise in the blood. During this time, the body's electrolytes (sodium, potassium, etc.) are disturbed, which can cause all sorts of problems, including muscle spasms, convulsions and weakness. Kidney function is likely to resume within hours or days, but in severe cases, dialysis may be required.
The association between synthetic marijuana and kidney injury is a fairly new development — the official CDC report was just released in February — and one that doctors like Chadha are really concerned about. Acute kidney injury associated with K2 use has already been reported in 16 cases spanning six different states.
As former K2 user Jacob put it: "That. Shit. Cray."
"Marijuana doesn't affect the kidneys," Chadha said. "But synthetic marijuana is a different beast."
NEW CONCERNS ABOUT K2 SIDE EFFECTS
— Noopur Goel
Beyond the brain, synthetic marijuana can attack multiple organs. The CDC said the body is more likely to experience heart attack, seizure and even acute kidney injury when high on K2.

COMMENTARY College players are people, too
By Ben Ashworth
bashworth@kansan.com
College basketball players are neither heroes nor villains. The media, teammates and practically everybody in America have exalted Louisville's Kevin Ware as a hero.
Meanwhile, Kansas fans (alongside much of the nation) have labeled Elijah Johnson as a villain after a silly intentional foul and the act of passing up a potential game-winning layup.
Ware is a good basketball player and a seemingly genuine kid. He exhibited a lot of toughness as evidenced by his words to his teammates as he was being escorted off the court on a stretcher while his tibia was protruding through his skin like something you'd see on the menu at a barbecue joint.
What Ware is not, however, is a hero.
Johnson may not have played his best game when the lights were brightest. In fact, it might have been his worst. If Johnson's season were the Star Wars series, the Michigan game was Episode I: The Phantom Menace. His act of reaching second base, metaphorically speaking, with Michigan freshman Mitch McGary was a play unbecoming of a senior leader. Who knows if he would have made that layup or maybe gotten fouled, but it was unquestionably a better shot than the running 3-pointer Naadir Tharpe was forced to take.
What Johnson is not, however, is a villain.
Johnson is a college student. Ware is too. That didn't stop their stories from taking different directions.
How many of the readers of this column have ever made a mistake? If this were a classroom, I'd expect all hands to be raised to the sky. How many of those same people have had that same mistake broadcasted to the world and scrutinized by strangers?
Using that same analysis, who has ever overcome an injury? Have you ever been considered inspirational because of it?
The media and basketball fans are so quick to label players as heroes and villains, the public tends to forget what heroes and villains really are.
Heroes are those fighting for our freedom overseas. They are the parents who put their own ambitions aside for the welfare of their children. They are the people who show up weekly at a soup kitchen and serve the poor. Ware may someday be a hero, but it won't be for his actions on the basketball court. And it won't be because he was able to show up in Atlanta on crutches and support his friends and teammates.
Likewise, Johnson may someday be a villain. I sincerely doubt it. But if he ever is, it won't be because he committed a ten-second violation or deferred to a teammate.
College basketball should place an emphasis on the "college" part of that phrase. These players are in college. They work hard for grades and suffer through bad relationships; they succeed and they fail. Instead of immediately seeking to label them and sort them as if they are tax returns, we should humanize them.
If we took this approach, wed see Kevin Ware a.d Elijah Johnson for what they are. Basketball players. College students. People.

Jayhawks prepare to face Vikings and Longhorns this weekend
FARZIN VOUSOUGHIAN
fvousouehian@kansan.com
After playing Iowa on the road, the Kansas Jayhawks return home to host Missouri Valley College on Thursday, and Texas on Friday, Saturday and Sunday.
The Jayhawks were scheduled to play a second game against the Hawkeyes on Wednesday, but the game was canceled because of rain. Despite having only a one-game series against the Hawkeyes, Kansas coach Ritch Price saw a lot of good things from his team that he wants to carry over.
"It was a really good step forward, and that's part of the growth of this team as we have had some success in the conference." Price said.
Kansas won 8-3 in Tuesday's game against the Hawkeyes. Sophomore Michael Suiter went two-of-four at the plate, stole two bases, scored three runs and recorded an RBI.
Eric Peterson, director of baseball operations for Kansas, was able to make up for Wednesday's cancellation by scheduling a one-game series at home against Missouri Valley College. This gives Price an opportunity to send senior Tanner Poppe to start on the mound as he continues to bounce back after missing two games last month.
The layhawks are 19-12 on the season and look to pick up their 20th win of the season before working on getting better at their 5-4 Big 12 record this weekend.
"We are trying to get Poppe on the mound so he can pitch and get his development going coming off of that shoulder soreness," Price said. "It's really important to us that he gets to start this week so we could have him move to the weekend and have him win league games as well."
road, winning only three of 10 away games.
Price also wants to use this game to give the young players in the program a chance to earn some playing time.
But Price looks beyond the road performance and wants his team to be ready for anything Texas throws at Kansas. Price applauded Texas for its pitching and wants to be able to match that this weekend at Hoglund Ballpark.
"We just want an opportunity to get on the field, get our work in and have good quality at-bats," Price said. "It will get us ready for Texas on the weekend."
Texas is currently 18-13 and is 3-6 in Big 12 matches. The Longhorns' biggest weakness this season has been playing on the
"They have as good of arms as any team in America," Price said. If we are going to win the series, we are going to have to get three good quality starts. Last weekend we only got two, and we won two games to win the series, but in order to win series, against opponents like that, you have got to get good starting pitching. Our start ing pitching has to be as good as theirs because that is the strength of their队."
As good as Kansas has been this year, Price has worked on improving fielding, which has been inconsistent for the Jayhawks. Price and pitching coach Ryan Graves have admitted that the pitchers must do a better job of finishing batters with two strikes and two outs.
The biggest key to this weekend's game is smart pitching, which will allow Kansas to become one of the better teams in the Big 12 by the time the weekend is over.
"I think any time you play quality pitching, it comes down to two-strike innings and preventing two-out RBIs," Price said. "That will be the difference between winning and losing."

Spring game will define players' roles
FOOTBALL
FARZIN VOUSOUGIAN
fvousoughian@kansan.com
As the Kansas Jayhawks continue their offseason workouts and prepare for the Spring Game this Saturday, the players are working on figuring out their roles for next season. For junior running back Tony Pierson, he already knows what his role will be on offense under Kansas coach Charlie Weis. Oddly enough, Pierson doesn't expect to run the ball as much.
Last year, 85 percent of Pierson's 138 touches on offense came on the ground. Pierson said that he's spent 80 percent of his time catching passes so far in offense repetitions. Weis sees him as the most versatile player on the team.
"Tony is still clearly the most dynamic running back we have," Weis said. "He might be the most dynamic receiver we have as well. He is a definite pain in the butt for the defense, because he can play detached from the backfield. Tony has shown that he can run legitimate routes, catch the ball, and
most importantly, he can get open. That gives you a chance."
Pierson said he has not spoken to Weis much about what he'll do next year, but he has had conversations with student manager Charlie Weis Jr. about expanding his role. Weis and the Kansas offensive coaching staff want Pierson to have a role similar to former West Virginia wide receiver Tawon Austin.
The layhawks went through the entire 2012 season without throwing a touchdown to a wide receiver. Pierson was co-leader in receiving touchdowns for the team, with two last season.
Austin accounted for over 1,200 yards receiving and 600 yards rushing along with some duties as a return specialist.
Kansas was a one-dimensional football team last year, excelling only in the rushing department. Having Pierson adapt to this role can give Kansas fans a lot to look forward to with the offense in September.
"We obviously have big plans for Tony," Weis said. "We didn't do
Senior running back James Sims led all Big 12 rushers in yards per game, while Pierson was seventh in that category. Sims will predominantly lead Kansas' running game, but the new responsibility for Pierson allows the Jayhawks to keep him active in the offense.
all of that research on Tavon Austin for nothing. This is a copycat business; all of those guys that try to act like all their ideas are original, they are all liars. When you get someone who is doing something really good and you think you have someone that fits that build, then you go and study them."
With West Virginia being Big 12 newcomers last year, Pierson paid more attention to Austin and learned a lot from him. He knows his versatility will be an important asset to the team and he welcomes the challenge.
"We've got the same skill set as each other," Pierson said. "I used to watch Tavon Austin last year. He's a nice player. I liked his role at West Virginia."

If you're a Kansas City sports fan, you may have heard of Kansas City Star sports columnist Sam Mellinger's Twitter Tuesday; answering questions via tweety-bird from Kansas City area followers. As a product of my lack of imagination, I present to you: Twitter Thursday.
By Jackson Long
jlong@kansan.com
Not as cool, I know, but thanks anyways, Sam.
The column starts with a read of the week. So, give credit where credit is do, go read Mellinger's actual article since he's the brilliant one who thought of this anyways.
Now let's jump to the good stuff.
The week's eating recommendation is anything Cajun from Terrebonne, 805 Vermont St. And for you penny pinchers, you're lame, but try the new spicy chicken sandwich at McDonalds.
@jdjooult is April the greatest sports month of the year? Masters, draft, NCAA championship and opening day:
Well, sure it is. But this year's is even more special because of the local sports. Sure, the NCAA Championship fun was stopped on by a 28-footer from Trey Burke. But that doesn't happen very often. And Kansas basketball is at an all-time high right now. The Jayhawks will be
back. Our expectations are pretty darn high.
Opening day at the K on Monday was fantastic. Great starting pitching, clutch hitting; it doesn't get better. The team has a different feel this year without a doubt. The startning pitching has a lot to do with that.
The Masters is always special, and last year was no exception (YouTube: Bubba Watson Masters shot). But this year has Tiger Woods as hot as he's been in a long time. A four-time winner, Woods is the favorite entering the weekend at Augusta National, the pinnacle venue for golf championships.
NFL draft, this one's easy. The Kansas City Chiefs have the number one pick.
More importantly, the leadership has already done enough to settle the minds of the fans before the pick. New GM John Dorsey can go with his strategy of best player available, which led to big success in Green Bay, because the Chiefs really have no glaring needs.
@b_rockers Which would have helped more... Tyshawn on this year's team? Or Ben on last year's team?
Back to this, unfortunately, Tyshawn solves a lot of Elijah Johnson's late game problems against Michigan. But, in my opinion, it was one of the worst games that Bill Self has ever coached.
Everything went wrong for Kansas in the final minutes, and between Self and Johnson, it proved to be too much.
Thomas Robinson said having Ben on last year's team would have made the difference. After this year, it seems easier to believe. But that Kentucky team was stupid good. One of the best in recent memory.
So, in short, Id pick Tyshawn on this team. The liawahkes had it, and Michigan had a cakewalk to the title game. He helps solve the Louisville press issue, too.
KU
@canglem Which is worse, the wave,
the kiss cam or jumbotron proposals?
The wave is too out of date to merit discussion. Jumbotron proposals are really tacky, but, ironically, very representative of the type of people in the Chiefs and Royals parking lots. Kiss cam takes the cake here; a short, quick and very public place for love and lust creating awkward moments. Sounds a lot like the @KUSecretAdmirers account.
Well that's all folks. Go participate in student senate elections today, your vote counts! Keep calm and Rock Chalk on.

Diamondbacks save series against Pirates
PHOENIX — A.J. Pollock homered twice, doubled and drove in four runs as the Arizona Diamondbacks salvaged the final game of their series against Pittsburgh, routing the Pirates 10-2 on Wednesday.
Pollock began the day in an 0-for-14 rut. He also made a diving catch in center field to rob Andrew McCutchen in the first inning.
Wade Miley (2-0) allowed two runs on five hits in 6 2-3 innings.
Jonathan Sanchez (0-2) was charged with nine runs and eight hits in 3-1-3 innings. The last two of those runs
came after Sanchez left and reliever Chris Leroux walked two batters, on four pitches each, with the bases loaded in the diamondbacks' four-run fourth.
Pollock, a long shot to make the opening day roster before spring training injuries to Adam Eaton and Cody Rose, hit a three-run homer in the second and a solo shot leading off the

Kansas takes on Paladins
JOSEPH DAUGHERTY

The Jayhawks softball team is coming off the first road-series sweep of a Big 12 opponent since April 2007.
Freshman pitcher Kelsey Kessler pitched a no-hitter in the series finale against Texas Tech on Sunday. Kessler was named Big 12 Pitcher of the Week on Tuesday after her stellar weekend. Kessler made two starts and three appearances and went 2-0 with one save and 15 and two-third innings of shutout softball.
Last weekend also marked the first time a Jayhawk pitcher pitched a no-hitter since March 2007.
"The experience was incredible as far as the honor itself (Pitcher of the Week) hasn't happened in a while so I think that it's important for our team as well being incredible for me," Kessler said. "The no-hitter was a队 thing too, there is a lot of defense that goes into a no-hitter. So other than that I just think it is pretty cool."
Coach Megan Smith said that Furman University is typically a
very well-balanced team dating back from her time coaching at Western Carolina. Smith said the Paladins are pretty good at everything this season: good pitching, good hitting and good defense. Smith said Furman is one of the most beautiful campuses in the country so that's exciting for the girls to see a campus that they've never seen.
.262. The Paladins have two batters that play consistently hitting above .300. Junior Nikki Legg was named Southern Conference Softball Player of the Week, it was announced on Monday. LEGg batted .636 with a .667 on-base percentage and had a .818 slugging percentage in five games for the Paladins this past week.
The Jahawks are headed to Greensville, S.C., to take on Furman in a three-game series. The Paladins are 19-17 and are coming off a series against Western Carolina where the Paladins only won one of the three games. Furman is hitting .251 as a team and allowing opponents to hit
Sophomore third baseman Chanin Naudin hit a home run in each of the three games last weekend. Naudin said that it was a confidence builder for her because she doesn't think of herself as a player who hits a lot of home runs. Kessler and Naudin feel like the team can build on the success that they had last weekend and carry that throughout the rest of the season. This weekend also saw senior Maggie Hull extend her hitting streak to 20 games.
"What we saw last weekend was probably our best example of a complete game effort in all three games," Smith said. "We've had glimpses here and there of certain aspects of our game that have done well, but before last weekend, none of them had come together as consistently as it did those three games. So we just want them to take that same approach this weekend and have that same intensity level that we had."
"That is impressive for Maggie," Smith said. "She continues to impress us with things, and hopefully that doesn't end, and she has more to impress us with for the rest of the year."

Weber adds year to contract
ASSOCIATED PRESS
KANSAS CITY, Kan. — Kansas State rewarded basketball coach Bruce Weber for winning a share of the school's first conference championship in 36 years with a raise and a one-year contract extension Wednesday.
Weber's annual salary will increase by $250,000 to $1.75 million next season, and increase by $100,000 each of the remaining years on his original five-year deal. That means Weber will make $2.15 million for the 2017-18 season, the year that has been added to his contract.
continued improvement under Coach Weber and his staff since their arrival last April," said Currie, who moved quickly last March to hire Weber once he was fired from Illinois and Martin left for South Carolina. "I am extremely excited about the forward trajectory of our program under his leadership"
"Whenever you have success, it is a direct reflection of your team and staff, and I have said all along we had great chemistry between our players and staff all year," Weber said. "I'm so proud to be associated with this group of players and coaches, and I can't thank them enough."
Weber, the AP's Big 12 coach of the year, inherited a program that returned most of its key players from an NCAA tournament team. He'll return several key players next season, too, though he'lose top scorer Rodney McGruder and fellow seniors Jordan Henriquez and Martavious Irving.
Weber, who was hired to replace Frank Martin, went 27-8 in his first season in Manhattan. More important, he went 14-4 in the Big 12 and tied rival Kansas for a share of the championship. The fourth-seeded Wildcats were upset by No. 13 seed La Salle in the NCAA tournament.

The track and field squad will continue their outdoor season this weekend at the John McDonnell Invitational in Favetteville, Ark., on the campus of the University of Arkansas.
TARA BRYANT/KANSAN
After two successful meets in Arizona last weekend, the Jayhawks are in the middle of the outdoor season with the Kansas Relays just a week away.
On Tuesday, the women's team was named the No.1 team in the nation according to the U.S.Track & Field and Cross Country Coaches Association (USTFCCCA). They have been in the top-five every week in 2013, including the indoor and outdoor seasons.
The Kansas Relays will have multiple features next week, including world class athletes and special events that will take place in downtown Lawrence on Wednesday and Thursday of the Relays.
The men are improving at the right time. They will be led this weekend by junior Josh Munsch, who ran his fastest 1,500 meters of his career. His time of 3:43.03 has him ranked in the top five in the nation this season.
Munsch will be joined by Brendan Soucie, who ran the 800 meters last weekend in a personal best time of 1:50.21. The junior from Osawatomie has the fastest 800 meter time run by a University male since 2005.
The women will be led by Natalia Bartnovskaya, who has been rewriting the pole vault record book this season. After winning the NCAA indoor championship last month, she broke her own school record
last weekend with a vault of 4.41 meters (14-5.5 ft.).
Joining Bartnovskaya and the No.1 ranked Jayhawks will be the 4x400 team that posted their fastest time of the season last weekend in Arizona. The quartet of seniors Denesha Morris, Taylor Washington, Paris Daniels and junior Diamond Dixon is ranked eighth in the nation right now, with
a season best time of 3:32.26.
The Kansas Relays are April 17-20. The John McDonnell Invitational in Arkansas is this Saturday, with the first event starting at 5 p.m.

Bookies indicted for gambling
OKLAHOMA CITY — A federal indictment unsealed Wednesday accuses 34 people and 23 companies, many of them registered in Central America, of operating an illegal sports bookmaking business that solicited more than $1 billion in bets.
The 95-page indictment, handed up by a federal grand jury in Oklahoma City on March 20, accuses the defendants of operating from San Jose, Costa Rica, and Panama City to take bets almost exclusively from gamblers in the U.S.
The indictment says that since 2003 the operation known as Legendz Sports used the companies to operate as payment processors, launder gambling funds and make payouts to customers. It alleges a conspiracy and accuses the defendants of violating federal racketeering and money laundering statutes as well as operating an illegal gambling business.
The indictment also accuses the defendants of violating illegal
gambling statutes in several states,
including Oklahoma, California,
Colorado, Florida, Nebraska, New
York and Texas.
Legendz Sports solicited millions of illegal bets totaling over $1 billion on sports and sporting events from gamblers in the United States," the indictment alleges. As part of the conspiracy, Legendz Sports operated Internet websites and telephone gambling services from facilities located in Panama, the indictment savs.
U. S. Attorney Sanford Coats of Oklahoma City said the charges culminated a multiyear investigation by the FBI and Internal Revenue Service.
"The defendants cannot hide the allegedly illegal sports gambling operation behind corporate vells or state and international boundaries." Coats said.
The acting chief of the Justice Department's criminal division, Mythili Raman, said the government is determined to crack down on illegal online gambling by U.S. citizens, regardless of where the business operates or where the
"These defendants allegedly participated in an illegal sports gambling business, lining their pockets with profits from over a billion dollars in illegal gambling proceeds," Raman said.
Among the individual defendants listed in the indictment is Bartice Alan King, 42, of Spring, Texas, who's accused of conspiring with others to operate gambling services that took wagers almost exclusively from U.S. gamblers.
The enterprise allegedly used bookies in the U.S. to illegally solicit and accept sports wagers as well as settle gambling debts. The 34 individual defendants were allegedly employees, members and associates of the Legendz Sports enterprise, the indictment saves.
Bob Troester, a spokesman for the U.S. Attorney's Office in Oklahoma City, said King remained at large Wednesday but that 22 other defendants including King's former wife, Serena Monique King, had been taken into custody.

Nats get 5-2 win to keep home record unblemished
ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — Bryce Harper homered, Ian Desmond had three extra-base hits, Danny Espinosa provided his first two RBIs of the season, and the Washington Nationals beat the Chicago White Sox 5-2 Wednesday night to stay unbeaten at home.
In a game that began 16 minutes late because, the Nationals explained, the umpires got stuck in traffic, Washington starter Jordan Zimmermann (2-0) limited Chicago to two runs and seven hits in seven innings. Both runs scored on groundouts.
Drew Storen pitched the eighth, and closer Rafael Soriano worked around a hit in the ninth for his fourth save in five chances.
Harper hit his fourth homer into the second deck leading off the fourth against Gavin Floyd (0-2), who allowed five runs and nine hits in 5 1-3 innings.
Desmond tripled, doubled twice and scored twice as reigning NL. East Washington improved to 5-0 at Nationals Park.
Every Nationals starting position player reached base at least once; the only one without a hit, Kurt Suzuki, walked three times.
After Chicago drew within 3-2 on Alex Rios' RBI ground in the top of the sixth. Washington chased Floyd in the bottom half by tacking on two more runs.
Desmond led off with a triple,
Espinosa followed with an
RBI double, Suzuki walked and Zimmermann sacrificed the runners over.
Floyd was done, and lefty reliever Donnie Veal came in to face Span but gave up a run-scoring single and was replaced by righty Nate Jones. With runners on the corners, Jones got layson Werth to ground into a 5-4-3 double play.
Harper turned on Floyd's first pitch of the fourth, an 86 mph offering that never stood a chance. With a "thwack!" off the bat, the ball arced into the second deck beyond right field, and Harper paused for a moment to watch his shot before sprinting around the bases.
That gave the Nationals 11 homers in their last four games, 15 for the season. The 14 entering Wednesday were a franchise record through a season's first seven games.
Floyd struck out the next two batters, but then got into more trouble, giving up Desmond's double and Espinosa's single that gave Washington a 2-1 lead.
Harper's next time at the plate, in the fifth, he followed a single by Werth with a single up the middle of his own, this time on a 91 mph first pitch. TV replays showed Harper's bat split on impact with the ball, then broke completely as the wood slapped against his back on his follow-through.
Ryan Zimmerman followed with an RBI single to shallow right.

Kansas rowing team heads to New Jersey for regatta
STELLA LIANG
sliang@kansan.com
The Jayhawks will compete in five races: first varsity eight, second varsity eight, first varsity four, open four and novice eight. All races, except the open four with two boats, will have six boats competing per race.
The Kansas Jayhawks rowing team will travel to Cherry Hill, N.J., to compete on the Cooper River in the Knecht Cup Regatta April 13-14. This regatta will feature almost 70 men's and women's collegiate rowing teams across all three divisions in 34 different events.
Everyone will race on Saturday in the heats. Some events have semifinals, and those will also be on Saturday. All finals will be on Sunday. For example, in the first varsity four race on Saturday, there will be six heats. The first two finishers in each heat plus the next six fastest boats will advance to the semifinals that afternoon.
The top two fastest boats in each of the three semifinals will
advance to the Grand Final. The next two will advance to the Petite Final, and the fifth and sixth place finishers in each semifinal will race in the Third Level Final.
Last year at the Knecht Cup, the Jayhawks had one of their best showings of the year. Two Kansas boats, the first and second varsity four, earned first place in their respective Grand Finals. Kansas had two other boats, the second varsity eight and novice eight, advance to Grand Finals.
Right now, the Jayhawks are coming off strong performances against Georgetown and Indiana last weekend. They earned wins in the first, second and third varsity four and second varsity eight races. The second varsity eight boat has earned four wins in a row.
Proceeds from the Knecht Cup will benefit Villanova rowing, other schools and various charities.

THE KANSAS EXPERIMENT
RULES OF THE GAME
Allen Fieldhouse will be home to the Naisthom's original rules of basketball later on this year when construction begins on the new exhibit in the Booth Family Hall or Athletics. "There's No Place Like Home," an ESPN 30 for 30, film documented Josh Swade's mission to bring the rules back to the University of Kansas.
The University of Kansas will begin construction on an addition to Allen Fieldhouse later this year to house James Naismith's original hand-typed rules of basketball.
With a planning budget of $18 million, KU Endowment will raise private funds from donors to cover the construction costs to build the new student center on the southern edge of campus. The main feature of the building is display space for Naismith's rules, but it will also provide services and programs for University students, faculty and public visitors. The construction is on target to be complete and open to the public by fall of 2014.
Historic rules get new home in Lawrence
KU Endowment President Dale Seuferling said the building will be an extension of the historical display of the Booth Family Hall of Athletics in Allen

Fieldhouse.
"It will have a lot of history, mainly because of the rules of basketball," Seuferling said. "There will be displays constructed around the rules about James Naismith's impact on basketball, his role at KU, the traditions of KU basketball and the strong history of basketball coaches at KU."
Seuflering also said the building will be similar to the Kansas Union, with dining services and space for students and faculty to work and socialize. The building will be operated by the Kansas Union because of its expertise in food service, and the Union will provide various programs, events and activities for the public. Seuflering said the addition is expected to be a tourist attraction for visitors, draw in University alumni, serve as an important spot for student recruiting visits and offer activities before and after basketball games.
The new student center would not be a reality without the efforts of Jayhawk basketball fan Josh Swade. He led the plan to purchase Naismith's rules and bring them to the University, Swade grew up in Kansas, and his parents are University alumni. He said he felt compelled to find a way to purchase the rules because he thought they needed to be in the school with the largest basketball tradition, as well as the place where James Naismith made his legacy.
Swade visited the University this February to talk about his experience and show his documentary about his journey to obtain the rules called "There's No Place Like Home," produced by ESPN Films' "30 for 30." The quest began when the Naismith International Basketball Foundation put the rules up for auction in 2010 at Sotheby's in New York. Swade was the brains behind the operation to get the
The Kansas City Star reported that along with his financial contribution, Booth requested a building be constructed in Lawrence to display the rules. In a few months, Lawrence will see this building and James Naismith's rule adjacent to the northeast corner of Allen Fieldhouse.
rules, but he needed donors to buy them. He eventually teamed with David Booth, a member of KU Endowment Association's board of trustees, who purchased the two-page document for $4.3 million.
"I can't imagine that I'll ever do anything as significant or as satisfying or as cool...This is kind of one of those extraordinary moments in one's life where you can do something that will be truly memorable," Booth said in "There's No Place Like Home" after winning the auction.

Jayhawks seek first conference win against Texas Longhorns
TYLER CONOVER
tconover@kansan.com
Coming off a two-game road trip, the Jayhawk tennis team is ready to host the Texas Longhorns this Friday. This match has potential to be a springboard for Kansas as the team is on a 19-game conference losing streak and needs a Big 12 win in order to escape the conference cellar.
Right now the Jayhawks are one of three teams in the Big 12 without a win in conference play, Texas, however, is 4-1 in Big 12 play and 11-9 overall, so a win against them may be what the Jayhawks need to
put some pep in their step.
For Kansas, the winning formula this season has been to get off to a quick start in doubles play, something the team has struggled with over the past few matches. The duo of junior Paulina Los and sophomore Maria Belen Ludueña has been stellar this year. If they can spark the rest of the doubles players, then Texas might have its hands full.
Singles play has been a roller coaster ride for the Jayhawks this spring as the team has a couple 7-0 victories on the season, but also a few 7-0 losses. Kansas is at its best when Los, freshman Anastasija
Trubica and fellow freshman Maria Jose Cardona are playing well. For them, it will be a long day as Texas has a formidable lineup. Most notably in the lineup is the two-time All-American Aerial Elli, who in her last match earned her 100th career singles win.
If Kansas is able to stymie the Longhorns in doubles play, then the team might be able to end its losing streak. The match begins at 2 p.m. at the Jayhawk Tennis Center.

Westbrook throws fourth shutout, Cardinals defeat Reds at home
ASSOCIATED PRESS
ST. LOUIS — Jake Westbrook pitched a five-hit shutout and the St. Louis Cardinals backed him with four home runs Wednesday in routing the Cincinnati Reds 10-0.
Jon Jay, Carlos Beltran and Matt Adams homered in a span of seven at-bats off Homer Bailey as the Cardinals took two of three from the NL Central champions.
Matt Carpenter added a two-run homer on a four-hit day. Adams homered for the second straight game and added an RBI double and walk.
The Cardinals have dominated the Reds at home the last decade, losing just three of 28 series with two splits.
Westbrook (1-1) threw his fourth career shutout, walking
four and striking out three.
Westbrook pitched his first shutout since Aug. 9, 2006, against the Angels when he was with Cleveland, and this was his 15th career complete game. He held the Reds hitless in six at-bats with runners in scoring position, and contributed his 11th career RBI with a single in the seventh for St. Louis' final run.
Bailey (1-1) had gone 23 straight shutout innings — including his no-hitter against Pittsburgh last season — before the Cardinals broke open a scoreless game with four runs with two outs in the fifth.
The Cardinals advanced only two runners into scoring position in the first four innings and Bailey got two quick outs to start the fifth before running into trouble against the top of the lineup. St. Louis scored 10 runs on 11 hits in the fifth, sixth and seventh off Bailey, Logan Ondrusek and Alfredo Simon.
Bailey was charged with seven runs in five-plus innings and dropped to 3-8 with a 5.52 ERA against the Cardinals, including 0-4 with a 6.93 ERA at Busch Stadium.
Jay's second homer just cleared center fielder Shin-Soo Choo's leaping attempt at the wall. Carpenter followed with a single and Matt Holliday hit an RBI double, prompting a visit from pitching coach Bryan Price.
Adams hit a two-run homer in the sixth off Bailey. Carpenter's two-run shot homer three batters later made it 8-0.
Beltran then hit his first homer of the season on to make it 4-0.

Chadwick Roseman plays baseball legend Jackie Robinson in "42."
'42' tells an important story but lacks a strong narrative
Films about racism can portray it two ways: realistically, with poignancy and a balanced, effective point, or tritely, lacking in subtlety and emotional resonance while repeatedly hitting you over the head with a message.
"42" hews a lot closer to the second camp than the first, which is a shame. Jackie Robinson was a baseball legend and one of the most important players in the history of sports for bridging the racial divide in America's pastime, so his story deserves a better cinematic treatment. What could've been a great movie is undone by clichéd writing, slow pacing and dull direction.
By Alex Lamb
alamb@kansan.com
The only real saving grace is some solid performances and the sequences where Robinson (Chadwick Boseman) works his magic on the field. The film highlights these strengths early on, as Brooklyn Dodgers team executive Branch Rickey (Harrison Ford) searches for the first black man to bring into white baseball.
He quickly finds the base-stealing firebrand jackie Robinson and starts him out on the Montreal Royals before moving him up to the Dodgers for his inaugural season in 1947. There, Robinson must overcome great prejudice amidst
Writer/director Brian Helge兰德 drags the story out too long, letting many scenes meander without enough focus, and he lacks a bit on actual baseball action. Anytime Robinson is playing, and especially when he's stealing bases, it's exciting to watch (John C. McGinley from "Scrubs" as the commentator is a particularly enjoyable touch). When he faces challenges on the field, like a pitcher beaming in the head or an opposing team's manager (Alan Tudyk) harassing him with nasty, racist slurs, the movie succeeds in being both a strong sports tale and racial drama.
Off the field, however, the racial politics are far less compelling and feel simplified for the most general demographic. "Moneyball" was able to make the off-field and behind-the-secens goes-on more
interesting than the game itself, but it had more complex, dynamic writing boosting it. Boseman and the other supporting players (there are plenty of recognizable faces that are fun to pick out) can carry the narrative along in the meantime, but can't support it with much momentum.
While the simmering anger, outstanding power and devilish energy Boseman brings to the role prove him a worthy leading man, it's Ford who steals the show. He goes full growl here, grulfully delivering his lines with more vigor than he's had in many of his recent roles, and the gravelly voice supremely entertains. He's getting closer and closer to the Clint Eastwood old man snarl, and it makes Ford the best part of "42."
Undemanding audiences and baseball lovers will probably find this extremely formulaic sports flick agreeable enough. But for those who think baseball is boring or value efficient storytelling, this one's a strike out.

District Judge Anita Brody has
a billion-dollar problem on her
hands.
Brody, of Philadelphia, heard arguments Tuesday on whether lawsuits that accuse the NFL of glorifying violence and hiding known concussion risks belong in court or in arbitration.
Brody could side with the 4,200 players and let them pursue lawsuits, or she could rule for the league and find that head injuries are covered under health provisions of the collective bargaining
agreement.
Or she could issue a split decision, letting some of the fraud and negligence claims against the NFL move forward in court. Her decision could be worth more than a billion dollars — and is expected to be appealed by either side, spawning years of litigation.
"There are people who aren't going to be able to be around long enough to find out the end of this case, and my husband is one of them," said Eleanor Perfetto, the widow of guard Ralph Wenzel, who played for Pittsburgh and San Diego from 1966 to 1973. "He died
last June, and I'm here for him. He was sick for almost two decades and, in the end, had very, very severe, debilitating dementia."
In the closely-watched court arguments Tuesday, NFL lawyer Paul Clement insisted that teams bear the chief responsibility for health and safety under the contract, along with the players' union and the players themselves.
"The clubs are the ones who had doctors on the sidelines who had primary responsibility for sending players back into the game," Clement said at a news conference after the hearing.

The players argue that the league "glorified" and "monetized" violence through NFL Films, thereby profiting from vicious hits to the head.
Players' lawyer David Frederick also accused the league of concealing studies linking concussions to neurological problems for decades, even after the NFL created a Mild Traumatic Brain Injury committee in 1994. The panel was led by a rheumatologist.
In recent years, scores of former NFL players and other concussed athletes have been diagnosed after their deaths with chronic traumatic encephalopathy, or CTE, including popular Pro Bowler Junior Seau and lead plaintiff Ray Easterling. Both committed suicide last year.
"It it set up a sham committee designed to get information about neurological risks, but in fact spread misinformation," Frederick argued.
About one-third of the league's 12,000 former players have joined the litigation since Easterling filed suit in 2011. Some are battling dementia, depression or Alzheimer's disease, and fault the league for rushing them back on the field after concussions. Others are worried about future problems and want their health monitored.
Brody honed in on whether the

Tom McHale played in the NFL from 1987 to 1995, before the Alllvy League athlete died of an accident overdose in 2008. He was 45 and had battled depression and addiction toward the end of his life.
"It has to be really specific. That's what I have to wrestle with," she said.
Lisa McHale, of Tampa, Fla., hardly recognized her once-gregarious husband. After his death, he was also diagnosed with CTE. She believes the player lawsuits, and the willingness of retired players to go public with their problems, will help her three teenage sons understand their father's illness.
Frederick called the contract "silent" on latent injury, and said
"I certainly admit that the gap year players ... are the most difficult cases," said Clement.
However, he said very few people played only those years, and not before or after. For most, "there's no way to

"There's no way to say the only hits that hurt you are the hits from those years."
Players and family members on hand for the hearing included Kevin Turner, a former Philadelphia Eagles running back now battling Lou Gehrig's disease; Dorsey Levens, a veteran running back who made a 2012 documentary on concussions called "Bell Rung," and Easterling's widow, Mary Ann.
One wrinkle in the NFLs argument is what it calls the "gap year" players, who played from 1987 to 1993, when there was no collective bargaining agreement in place. The league, eager to avoid opening up its files in a court case, argues that those players were bound by previous contracts or contracts later.
players therefore have the right to seek damages in court. Brody is not expected to rule for several months.

Tampa Bay Rays starting pitcher Matt Moore delivers to the Texas Rangers in the first inning of a baseball game Wednesday. April 10, 2013, in Arlington, Texas.
Rays defeat Texas to break three-game losing streak
ASSOCIATED PRESS
ARLINGTON, Texas — Matt Moore and four Rays relievers combined on a five-hitter and Tampa Bay beat Texas 2-0 Wednesday in the coldest day game ever at Rangers Ballpark.
It was only 39 degrees when the game started after a rain delay of 1 hour, 29 minutes. That was 40 degrees colder than Tuesday night.
Evan Longoria had a sacrifice fly for the Rays, who snapped a three-game losing streak. Their other run came on a grounder after Derek Holland (0-1) walked the bases loaded, his only three walks in his eight innings.
Moore (2-0) limited Texas to a single and struck out five, but had six walks and threw 106 pitches — 52 of them balls with two wild pitches — to get into the sixth. He benefited from two double-play grounders, one soon after he came out of the game.
Cesar Ramos, Jake McGee, Joel Peralta and Fernando Rodney finished out Tampa Bay's third shutout of the season. Rodney got his first save.
Holland (0-1) allowed two runs and five hits with four strikeouts and the three walks.
Texas, which had won six of seven since its season-opening loss at Houston, appeared to have a run in the sixth. Mitch Moreland, the third batter after Moore left the game, beat out an inning-ending double-play grounder.
The only other time Moore pitched in Texas was the 2011 AL division series opener, when he threw seven scoreless innings for the Rays. He threw six shutout frames against Cleveland last week in his first start this season.
Baker argued briefly with second-base umpire Marty Foster, and was soon joined by Rangers manager Ron Washington. Foster motioned that Baker went out of his normal path, which television
Moreland had already been signaled safe and Nelson Cruz had crossed home plate when interference was called against Jeff Slake. The base runner appeared to slide away from second into the path of shortstop Yunel Escobar, who was making the relay throw.
That inning-ending play was much different than the game-ending strike of the series opener Texas won 5-4, which ended when Foster was behind home plate and called strike three on a curveball low and outside — a call he later admitted he got wrong.
replays appeared to support
In the eighth, Adrian Beltre was thrown out at home trying to score on pinch-hitter Leonys Martin's fly ball. Right fielder Ben Zobrist made a solid throw to catcher Jose Lobaton, who had the plate blocked and tagged out Beltre.
All three of Holland's walks came in the third. The first was to No. 9 hitter Kelly Johnson, who eventually scored on a fielder's choice grounder by Zobrist, the batter who thought he had drawn a walk Monday night to put two runners on base for Longoria before Foster's game-ending call.
Desmond Jennings led off the fifth with his third double in two games and scored on Longoria's deep fly ball to right.

PITCHING
Tanner Poppe takes the mound for the Jayhawks in his normal midweek start. Poppe is 1-2 on the season with a 5.23 ERA, 17 strikeouts and 11 walks in 20 2/3 innings pitched. The Kansas bullpen is firing on all cylinders with Jordan Piche' collecting his sixth save and Big 12 Newcomer of the Week honors against Oklahoma State. Kansas sophomore middle receiver Drew Morovick pitched a four-inning save against Iowa.
HITTING
The Jayhawks have relied on the short game lately with the Sac Bunt being prominent feature at the plate. Kansas logged 12 hits in its last appearance, with an 8-3 victory over the Iowa Hawkeyes in Iowa City, Iowa. Michael Sutter continues to hit at a high level with a season batting average of 395, 15 RBIs and 19 stolen bases. The Jayhawks are focused on scoring early and often, something they've done in beating Oklahoma State and Iowa.
FIELDING
Kansas middle infielders senior third baseman Jordan Dreiling and senior shortstop Kevin Kuntz are turning double plays as well as anyone in the Big 12 lately and the Jayhawks committed one error in Iowa. The outfield is also playing at a high level with Michael Suiter picking up his sixth outfield assist over the weekend. Expect the Jayhawks to start several young players against Missouri Valley College.
PITCHING
HITTING
The Vikings have logged a team batting average of .223 in their 12 games this season. The team from Marshall, Mo., has scored 51 runs on the season. Sophomore catcher Anthony Corona leads the team with a .328 batting average in 58 plate appearances, Corona has collected 19 hits and three RBIs on the season.
Missouri pitching has collected a 6.14 ERA on the season. Senior pitcher Brandon Cooper leads the rotation for the Vikings. Cooper has a 1-6 record and 4.61 ERA in 41 innings pitched this season. Expect several Viking pitchers to make an appearance under the lights of Hoglund Ballpark.
Viking fielders are working at a 93-percent rate on the season with 39 errors committed on the season. Against the Jayhawks, they can expect some pressure from the short game as Kansas has ramps up its focus on moving runners with buns. Shortstop Devin Burnworth leads the team with 39 assists.

BIG EVENT, BIG TURNOUT
HANNAH BARLING hbarling@kansan.com
Burton Gepford moved into his house a year and a half ago. After taking two days to build a new fence with a couple of family members, he knew that the fence needed to be stained.
Gepard was one of hundreds of people who received help from students, faculty and staff volunteers of the University. About 35 volunteers helped Gepard stain his wood fence. He said that is was fun hearing everyone talk and collaborate to get a project done.
"A big thank you goes out to them because I can't imagine getting it done by myself". Gepford said.
KU Memorial Unions hosted its third annual Big Event on Saturday. The Big Event is a full day of service from members of the University volunteering at various sites around the community.
Participation has increased drastically since the first year of the Big Event. In 2011, about 500 volunteers completed projects at 80 job sites in Lawrence neighborhoods. Last year, 2,000 volunteers performed tasks at 200 job sites. This year had the largest participation rate so far with 3,000 volunteers at 400 job sites.

Lauren Reinhart, a senior from
Kansas City, Mo., was The Big Event's executive director this year. She said they added 30 committee members this year and pushed harder to get the word out.
"There's no other organization like this on campus that brings all students together." Reinhart said.
She said that you don't have to sign up in teams and individuals can get to know others while working with the community.
"It's unique," Reinhart said. "There's nothing else like it at this scale."
Gepford used to work fore the University and has participated in several volunteer and outreach programs in the past. He said that he's
ecstatic for The Big Event because it helps the community out with projects and it's been a great event for the University. He said that this is one of the few times he's gotten the help because he's usually the one giving it.
"People always feel better about giving than receiving," Gepford said. "You look at a project that you just did and get an overall joy from it."
Trace Bowen, a freshman from Hutchinson, helped paint a fence at one of the day's locations. Bowen volunteered after he heard about The Big Event through one of his fraternity brothers and said he wanted to do it for the good of the
cause.
"It was good seeing the person helping also and getting involved with us," Bowen said.
A group of about 15 girls from the Chi Omega sorority helped paint a fence and wooden benches, moved dirt and picked up leaves at the Haskell Catholic Campus Center. The project took about four hours to complete.
Katie Krska, a freshman from Olathe, said it was a good grounding experience because sometimes projects like this take a while and it's easy to underestimate the time. She said seeing how appreciative they were was rewarding because usually jobs like this take several
hours.
"All of us are very thankful that someone organized something like this for us to do," Krsa said.

Jayhawk Boulevard may look a little different when you come back to Lawrence next August.
That's because the KU Office of Design and Construction Management and KU Endowment have teamed up to make major renovations over the next four summers to the boulevard's asphalt and concrete pavement, underground tunnel, storm drainage system and foliage surrounding the iconic avenue.
Originating three years ago, the idea was pushed through University

The canopy plank of the master plan is headed by KU Endowment, which plans to invest $1 million
into Boulevard beautification with the addition of over 200 trees and wide distribution of new shrubbery and grasses.
"I really believe it's the beauty of the campus that makes KU a special place," said Assistant Vice President of Endowment Dale Flusser. "I'm proud to see KU taking these steps to enhance our University."
But the renovations are functional, too. Modig points out that "it's been a long time since we've done anything with Jayhawk [Bouleard]. What you can't see is the deteriora-

The Elections Commission
Ad Astra and KUnited face multiple campaign violations
EMILY DONOVAN edonovan@kansan.com
Armed with the 21-page 2013 Election Code handbook, the Student Senate Elections Commission is considering alleged campaign violations after Sunday night's hearing. The unprecedented 25 percent voter turnout made for a competitive campaign season where each coalition watched the other for possible infringements of election protocols.
Ad Astra and KUnited coalitions collectively face 29 alleged violations. Last year, only 4 violations were reported.
"Both the coalitions were very competitive and very serious," said Caleb McIntosh, the Elections Commissioner and a sophomore from Carney. "We expected this."
"Ultimately, two groups of students wanted to win over the student body and both groups felt that breaking the rules wasn't the way to do it," said Mark Savoy, the KUited School of Law Senator Elect, from Overland Park.
The extensive reports on alleged violations included blurry camera phone photos, Facebook event screenshots, forwarded emails and official meeting minutes.
read each alleged violation's incident report, clarified details and allowed representatives of each coalition to respond and plead to or frequently refute the complaint.
Many of the above listed alleged violations were thoroughly refuted; some were plead. Both coalitions and all individuals specifically involved attended yesterday's two-hour hearing panel to be adjudicated or acquitted.
"It was a necessary evil to make sure that the integrity of the election was followed through," said Marcus Tetwier, the Ad Astra Student Body President Elect, a
For example, Emma Halling, Ad Astra Vice Presidential Elect, spoke in front of one of her classrooms to announce that voting was open and all students should participate in the election. While this announcement was non-partisan, she was wearing an Ad Astra T-shirt. The KUnited incident report argues that the announcement qualifies as campaigning for her coalition, breaking Election Code 409.A.3, which bars campaigning inside university-owned buildings.
"If wearing a T-shirt is to be considered campaigning, then we have several thousand violations that happened last week that we need to pursue," said Halling, a junior from Elkhart, Ind.
junior from Paola.
"If everyone is going to be looking at what you've done, it's going to make you be more consistent with how the elections code forces you to be," McIntosh said. "The more violations creates an incentive for you to act according to what the code tells you."
Violations in years past have been punished by fines against the coalition, such as a $25 fine for violating chalking codes. Both coalitions will be notified within 48 hours of the meeting on the verdicts of the cases and the sanction recommendations by the panel.

While the list of alleged violations is extensive, both coalitions expressed that policing each other is exclusive to the campaign season.
"The campaign is over," Tetwiler said. "We're going forward. We're looking forward how we can actually get these jobs done."
Violation reports, McIntosh said, help to fulfill and validate the democratic process.

tion that's underground."
"When we first talked about this master plan, we realized we needed to make this happen quickly." Modig said. "What's going on underground is something in need of attention, and when you add in the possibilities for innovation on the street level, it just all comes together."
The water lines beneath the boulevard have not been replaced since they were first installed, underground access tunnels are in danger of collapsing on workers and accessible ramps constructed near buildings years ago are not currently up to code.
The plan met some initial financial hardship after it was first hatched. Besides a limited source of funding, the Construction Management Team was unsure of whether its purpose should be to maintain the internal functioning of buildings or whether the department should extend its responsibility to campus beautification projects.
Since then, an inflow of cash and
"We're also studying the potential for putting a bike path down the center of the Boulevard," Modig said. "When buses load and unload, they have to pull over to the side where bikers usually are in their blind spots."
a recent reassessment of departmental priorities have allowed the University's project to finally take flight.
With a hefty load on the Construction Management Department's plate, including such projects as replacing McCollum Hall, constructing a new business school and expanding Learned Hall, the project ahead won't come without toil. But all parties involved are hopeful that their visions become reality.
The potential bike lane will be evaluated this summer and would be fully operational Fall 2015.
"I think we should build something that will make us proud of the University," Modig said. "That's why I'm excited about this project and am excited for the future it holds."

EMMA LEGAULT
elegault@kansan.com
It wasn't that Ad Astra presidential candidate Marcus Tetwiler was too overconfident or calling the election early, but before the results rolled in at 6:32 p.m. on Thursday, Tetwiler thought that the record-high 25-percent voter turnout was in itself a victory for the party as well as the University.
"We already have won," Tetwiler said.
The unofficial announcement that Ad Astra had won the Student Senate election, which was released from the Kansan Twitter, confirmed Tetwiler's statement.
Cheers erupted and tears were shed as candidates embraced and celebrated with the news that their hard work had paid off. For a campaign focused on inclusion and diversity, the individuals in the room demonstrated the tight-knit bond that Ad Astra hopes to bring to Student Senate and the student population.
With the victory, Tetwiler, a junior from Paola, and Emma Halling, a junior from Elkhart, Ind., will fill their respective titles as student body president and vice president next fall.
"I'm ready to get some work done. I'm ready to actually do what we promised to do. I'm ready to look at our platforms and work as hard as we can to get those done." Tetwiler said. "We have a mandate from the student body to get work done. It's bigger than myself; it's bigger than Ad Astra. It's a victory for our University. Our University won tonight; our University is going to win next year."
Although they both said they were running on few hours of sleep, Tetwiler and Halling thought the experience was exhausting but also immersive and encouraging.
"There are so many people on campus who got excited about something that didn't exist a year ago and really believed in it,"
Halling said.
The process taught Halling that she could step up and fill a role that she hadn't always been comfortable in.
"I honestly never thought that I could be a spokesperson, that I could be on the top of anything," Halling said. "I always thought was a behind-the-scenes person."
They gave credit to the determination and steadfastness of members of their campaign and the support of those who weren't directly involved.
With one in four students casting a vote this year, Ad Astra's goal of increasing voter turnout has already been met.
"There were people who we never touched as a campaign who sat in a dorm room and read things and said, 'you know what, I identify with this, and I
Soon after hearing of the party victory, Clinton Webb, a freshman from Leawood and a new representative for the freshmen and sophomores in the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, saw his name on the list. He described the moment as euphoric.
"It's been amazing; it's been stressful," Webb said. "I've met a lot of awesome people."
am empowered enough to vote," Halling said. "For that kid who I don't know to vote is amazing."
To him, Ad Astra means family.
Ashleie Koehn, a sophomore non-traditional student senator from Burns, said the victory was an accumulation of months of hard work, but it doesn't stop there. She said she's looking forward to passionately representing her constituents.
"We're such a diverse group with so many different needs than the regular student population," Koehn said. "I would love to make sure that Student Senate is able to cater to that a little bit more than they have been in the past."
During the campaign, Tetwiler stressed his desire for an open Senate and giving every student an opportunity to engage.
"Every person in this campaign took ownership and said, 'This is my Student Senate.' Halling said. "And that's what's all about."
This is the reason for the campaign's success, said Halling.
"If anyone at the University wants to come in and meet myself or Emma or the Student Senate, our doors are open. Please come in," Tetwiler said. "We want our
experience of Student Senate to be something that everyone at our University is engaged in, and we want it to be a democratic experience where everyone can feel a part of it."
As the group hugged, rock chalk chanted and yelled in relief and exhilaration, one member was heard above all, reminding them that they now have the power to make the University better.
And that's exactly what Tetwiler has in mind.
"I want everyone to feel like their voice can be represented," Tetwiler said. "This is KU. We deserve a competitive system, and we're going to bring it."

"Model U.N. offers a unique experience because you are practicing diplomacy in an environment that models the actual U.N.," said Joey Hentzler, President of KU Model U.N.
This past weekend the University sent a delegation of students to the annual Southern Regional Model United Nations Conference in Charlotte, N.C.
Either as a group or individually, students address a range of issues from the perspective of a foreign delegate.
The conference, which ran from April 11 through 13, allowed students to compete against a number of different schools and showcase the skills that they have developed
"Model U.N. also allows students to build skills in research, public speaking and communication while gaining a perspective on issues ranging from biodiversity to human rights," said Hentzler.
Once the Kansas delegates arrived at the conference they participated in committee sessions that ranged from eight to 12 hours with minimal breaks throughout. A Dais, which was comprised of
After doing their preliminary research, the students had to prepare position papers that highlighted all of the pertinent information they had found in their research. Kansas delegate Alex Bindley was the only participant at the conference to receive a 100 percent score on his position paper, which is now being used as an example on the official website for the conference.
To prepare for the conference, the delegates spent exhaustive hours studying general history, background, current events and foreign policies for the four countries that they were assigned for the conference.
over the course of the semester. The student delegates were responsible for representing Russia, Chile, Spain and Turkey at the conference.
Students interested in learning more about the program can attend general meetings every Tuesday at 6pm in Watson Library Rm. 302, or contact them at KansasMUN@gmail.com.
"The program is still growing and is always open to interested students," said Hentzler.
The delegation, which is comprised of 19 members, was very happy with the results of the conference and can't wait for another chance to showcase their skills.

At the end of the conference the KU delegation received 8 different individual and group distinctions. The conference staff selected half of these awards while the participating students chose the others.

SNOQUALMIE PASS, Wash. — A female snowshoe has died hours after she was dug out of an avalanche by fellow hikers, and a man remained missing Sunday, one day after a pair of spring avalanches struck separate groups hiking in the Cascade Mountains east of Seattle, authorities in Washington state said.
Sgt. Katie Larson with the King County Sheriff's Office said a team of rescuers worked through the night in blizzard-like conditions to carry the female snowsoer off the mountain just after midnight.
Medics confirmed that she had
"The conditions yesterday were horrific." Larson said Sunday. "It took 25 rescuers about five to six hours" to bring her off the mountain in a sled.
died when they reached the base of the mountain, Larson said.
The woman, whose identity was not known, had been hiking with her dog near a group of a dozen other people Saturday afternoon when an avalanche hit Red Mountain near Snoqualmie Pass east of Seattle.
She was buried in five feet of snow but was dug out with the help of the group of snowshoers, who had also been caught in the avalanche.

Members of that group told authorities that it took them 45 minutes to find the woman. "They did their best to try to warm her up." Larson said.

This is the first avalanche fatality reported in Washington state for the 2012-2013 season, according to the Northwest Weather and Avalanche Center in Seattle. Nationwide, 16 others have died avalanches this season, according to the Colorado Avalanche Information Center.
"There was a heavy snow dump last night, and conditions are still very hazardous," Larson said.

EDITORIAL
With the election over,the true test begins
Last week's Student Senate election was a watershed moment in the governance of this university. The student body answered the call for greater participation in elections, bringing the voter turnout to 25 percent of the student body. That's a three-fold increase from last year's dismal numbers, and evidence that, if people are invested in a cause, they're willing to take five minutes and click a couple of buttons on a webpage to make their voices heard.
In all seriousness, the students deserve an acknowledgment: They chose to actively engage the issues surrounding their campus, their community, and made some change happen. Sure, college students are fickle. If you get them to care, however, they're willing to give you some of their time.
So, we on the Kansas Editorial Board want to follow up this unprecedented action
I can see through your leggings.
with a final word on the matter. It's kind of like "Spider Man": Uncle Ben reminds Peter Parker that, "With great power comes great responsibility." Or was that Voltaire? Either way, the words carry weight. They also highlight the need for this year's round of elected senators and executives to follow through with the solutions and policies presented in their platforms.
Because, in many ways, this is an experiment. This is their chance to show that they mean it.
The democratic system that votes imbue with their sovereignty is a powerful thing indeed. With the full mandate of the people, a democracy gathers a consensus and, if practiced in an ideal way, develops a compromise among constituent groups and executes policies by the people, for the people. An ideal democratic body doesn't exist in reality — that's why it's an ideal.
But, it's in the pursuit of the ideal that people and organizations accomplish previously unthinkable goals. That's what the student body should expect from its newly formed Senate coalition: Representatives who try everything they can to maintain their promises and, even in the face of compromise, deliver on the issues that concern their constituents.
The executives and senators from Ad Astra, along with the other independent senators and incumbents who won seats in Senate, have been given an unprecedented opportunity.
They have to prove that they mean business by actually doing something with this opportunity. It's easy to cast a ballot; it's difficult to translate it into policy. Similarly, it's easy to promise responsibility, but it's difficult to stay true. Politics is full of obstacles — it's practically a part of the definition — and the true test of those designated to lead
is overcoming those obstacles.
This principle, which might seem a bit highfalutin and sophisticated for University governance, applies even at this level. That's how pervasive it is. Thus, we have an addendum: the Senators are responsible for the action, and the students are responsible for the vote. Students must continue to engage the campus community in order to preserve this sea change and the positive consequences it will have for life at the University.
Of course, those who represent won't know what to do or what their constituents want if those constituents don't hold up their end of the social contract. There's a reason why we in the West use the metaphor of a contract to define the social agreement between those in charge and those they represent. If one party doesn't hold up its end of the bargain, the whole system falls apart.
While the campus experienced a notable political event last week, the work is just beginning. In this election, the students (at least 25 percent of the students) held up their end of the bargain. Going forward, the goal for all parties involved, representative and represented alike, should be to at least maintain this level of engagement or surpass it. Clearly, students care about the University. Similarly, the Senators and executives care enough to make the will of the students a reality.
Thus, all components of University governance must maintain this momentum in meeting the challenges to come. You took the time to vote, after all. Why not prove that it was worth it?

Train trip and travelers make mind jump the tracks
All I wanted to do was get back to Lawrence. With 10 minutes to spare, I boarded the Southwest Chief sitting in Kansas City's Amtrak station, all the while being glared at by a bitter old conductor with frizzy blonde hair and her short, squat attendant.
By Sylas May
smay@kansan.com
As I hauled my luggage onto the train, I saw a very large family occupying the seats across from me — not to mention the seat I'd been assigned to, which was being kept warm by a little 8-year-old girl. All in all, the group comprised two kids, their mother, and three grown men. I honestly couldn't figure out which of these men was the kids' father; maybe they were too lazy to get a paternity test done and decided it would be easier just to share the kids?
The conductor turned and left the car, saying, "We'll be back through in five minutes to check your tickets." I sat in silence for about 20 minutes before she came back with a scanner and a
I didn't want to block up the aisle with my luggage, but I had nowhere else to go, which forced the aged conductor to turn sideways and shuffle awkwardly past me like some sort of geriatric crab, coming very close to grinding on the side of my pelvis. I felt a bit awkward, but it would have been worse for me if I'd been in the place of one of the numerous fathers of this little girl, who, despite the conductor's pleas in the sweetest (but still vitriolic) baby-talk she could muster, refused to get up. The monosyllabic argument between the two escalated to the point where the conductor started to shoo the girl off of the seat with a quick swatting motion that I feared would break her brittle wrists if she kept it up. Finally, one of the dads intervened, picking the girl up and putting her in the seat beside him.
flashlight and demanded grubly,
"Ticket and a photo ID." As I forked over the documents, I realized she hadn't stopped to check the ID of anyone else on the train. Just me. And then I shuddered a bit at the fact that I apparently looked more suspicious than any of the three fathers sitting across from me.
Meanwhile, another attendant was checking the tickets of the couple seated in front of me. "Where are you going?" she asked.
The young woman, wearing floral leggings, hipster glasses and a dirty beret and smelling of something illicit, replied hazily, "Topeka, but maybe to Albuquerque."
"What do you mean?"
While the Southwest Chief attendant and the stoner tried to hash out exactly where she was trying to go, the little girl across from me was playing with her mother's phone, and, for some reason, had begun shouting out the names of colors. Interspersed with barely-audible arguments for why a ticket to Topeka should entitle a rider to 700 extra miles on the rails were high-pitched yelops of "Yellow! Purple! Red!" After a couple of repetitions of this, the closest of the fathers decided he'd had enough and gave the little girl a light slap on the arm. "Shaddup," he barked.
"I'm going to Topeka, but I might be going to Albuquerque. It's not that complicated."
"Sir?" The conductor tapped me on the shoulder. "We'll be in Lawrence in about 20 to 40 min
utes. We don't make announcements." What the hell do you mean you don't make announcements? How am I supposed to know where my stop is? Maybe this is what the hipster chick meant: "I want to go to Topeka, but, if I miss my stop because of your negligence to properly inform me when it is, I'm punishing you by riding this sucker all the way to New Mexico!"
"Green!" I started, my train of thought jumping the tracks. "Shaddup!" the father countered. Smack.
In about 20 minutes, the train rolled to a stop. "This must be it." I thought as I grabbed my bags from above and headed for the exit, only to be stopped by the old conductor. "Where do you think you're going?"
"Train's stopped." I said.
"We're refueling. Get back in your seat," the woman shot back, with at least a penn of venom in her voice. If she thought I was suspicious when I got on, she probably thinks I'm the next Osama bin Laden now, and I sensed that, if I said another word, I'd be kicked out of fear that I was going to hijack the train and run it into a farmhouse or something.
The train finally rolled into Lawrence 30 minutes later, and I jumped off quickly, taking care not to make eye contact with anyone. As the doors closed and the engine ready to roll off into the night, I swore I could still hear a string of primary colors emanating from the car in a shrill, grating voice.
All this is to say I'd sooner throw my inside in front of an Amtrak train than ride it. Your mileage may vary (although I doubt you'll be able to vary it as far as Albuquerque).

NATIONAL SECURITY
North Korean nuke will not hit the US
There are a lot of analogies I could use to describe North Korea trying to attack the U.S., but the one that most accurate is a very hungry David slinging a rock 20 miles at a tank. Now, if North Korea wanted to nuke South Korea, they might be able to do a pretty good job of that, because South Korea is right next to North Korea, and the best North Korean rockets can go 6,000 km, according to analysts being quoted by almost every major news source.
In case you've been under a rock for the past month, you know how stupid North Korea has been acting. For those of you rock dwellers, glorious leader Kim Jong-Un and his North Korea have actually declared war on the U.S. and threatened to nukel us. This is the same North Korea that has zero satellites, and its former leader Kim Jong-II was the world's number-one buyer of Hennessy. There aren't many moments when you get to laugh at a country with nuclear weapons, but this is one of them.
So if Kim Jong-Un wanted to nuke Lawrence (which is 10,000 km from Pyongyang, the capital of North Korea), his rockets would somehow have to travel an extra 4,000 km, which is a really, really long way. That is, if his missiles could somehow cross the giant defense grid the U.S. Navy currently has covering the Pacific Ocean. If any of the giant floating radar installations pick up any activity from North Korea, there would be a U.S. rocket intercepting that missile within 45 minutes (which is like a bullet going 1,500 mph shooting down another bullet going 1,500 mph — which is awesome)

Or, the one of the Navy's new laser cannons could shoot down the nuke. Last Monday, the Navy tested its new ship-borne laser defense system.

The U.s is on its own level of destructive power, so we can handle ourselves. Now, remember that China, South Korea and Japan will help take care of North Korea if it tries anything.

then shooting said plane with a beam of light intense enough to set metal on fire.
I admit, talking about nuclear war like some pissing contest is a terrible thing. But Kim Jong-un is likely crazy and could do some terrible things to Asia. But he's not going to. He's crazy, not stupid. Kim's nuclear weapons are his chest pieces. He can't use them because they're the only things giving him strength over his people and other countries. So sleep tight, North America, North Korea will not be shooting missiles at us. And even if they tried to, they would miss by thousands of kilometers. 'Murica.'
OK, let's do some math.
Chance that a North Korean rocket will magically travel 10,000 km when it only has fuel for 6,000 km: zero. Chances that a North Korean rocket it past U.S., South Korean, and Japanese defense systems in the Pacific: maybe 1 in 50,000. So, zero times 1/50,000 is ... Would you look at that? Zero percent. There is no way a North Korean nuke is hitting the U.S. OK. Our turn.

You may have to wear a graduation cap and gown for the majority of graduation day, but don't let that stop you from wearing something stylish underneath.
MCCLATCHY TRIBUNE
Don't ignore fashion, shoe choice on graduation day
CALLAN REILLY
creilly@kansan.com
With graduation comes the dreaded gown. And with the dreaded gown comes the equally dreaded cap. Why must such a monumental event in students' lives (where countless pictures are taken) require shapeless uniforms?
You may wonder, given these circumstances, why youd even bother with buying something special for graduation day. However, don't let the cap and gown become an excuse to let fashion slide. Pictures from college graduation will be shown to children and grandchildren. The cap and gown are bad enough, but they will come off eventually, so the outfit underneath should make up for the lost fashion time.
The world will never know. Happy memories from the last four years of college will surely be the last thing on my mind when I reluctantly put on the itchy graduation gown and cap and head down the hill two years from now. Rather, I'll be thinking about how my outfit is being covered.
The most important part of your graduation outfit is your shoe choice. Walking down the hill and across a stage in front of thousands of people in heels is asking for trouble. Save yourself the pain and possible embarrassment, and go for something you can easily strut around in. As soon as the ceremony is over with, you can always switch into heels or pumps if nec
essary. Not only should your shoes be comfortable, but they should be stylish. They're the only part of your outfit that will be visible the entire day. The cap and gown will be covering your clothing the majority of the time, so your shoes should say it all.
As for actual clothes, pick something out that makes you feel good. It's your big day, and your outfit should reflect that, even if it is hidden during the ceremony. Maxi dresses and skirts with floral and other prints are all good options to take. Following any of these fashion steps will have you graduating with honors.

Bieber criticized for note at the Anne Frank House
AMSTERDAM — Justin Bieber wrote an entry into a guestbook at the Anne Frank House museum in Amsterdam, saying he hoped the Jewish teenager who died in a Nazi concentration camp “would have been a Belieber” — or fan of his — if history were different.
The message triggered a flood of comments on the museum's Facebook page Sunday, with many criticizing the 19-year-old Canadian pop star for writing something they perceive to be insensitive.
Calls made and emails sent to Bieber's publicist and agent in Los Angeles weren't immediately returned.
Museum spokeswoman Maatje Mostart confirmed that Bieber visited Friday evening. She said the museum was happy to have received Bieber and didn't see anything offensive in his remarks.
Anne Frank hid with her family in a small apartment above a warehouse during the Nazi occupation of World War II. Her family was caught and deported, and Anne died of typhus in Bergen-Belsen in 1945.
The diary she kept in hiding was recovered and published after the war and has become the most widely read document from the Holocaust.
Bieber's whole note read: "Truly inspiring to be able to come here. Anne was a great girl. Hopefully she would have been a Belieber"
Bieber's remarks led to criticism from some quarters, as a Facebook response insulting Bieber received more than 1,000 "likes" — slightly more than the museum's original post about the incident.
Meanwhile on Twitter, posts
Some of Bieber's 37 million followers also tweeted messages of support. Others in his fan base — which is heavily weighted toward young girls
— tweeted that they didn't know who Anne Frank was.
mocking Bieber and imagining he had visited the museum and walked away thinking only of himself began circulating Sunday, though the message is open to interpretation.
movie stars, dancers and royalty and kept it on her bedroom wall.
Frank was 13 years old when she began keeping her diary in 1942. Like many teenage girls, she made a collage of the celebrities of her day — movie stars, dancers and royalty —
"Our little room looked very bare at first with nothing on the walls; but thanks to Daddy who had brought my film-star collection and picture postcards ... with the aid of a paste pot and brush, I have transformed the walls into one gigantic picture," she wrote on July 11, 1942, just days after going into hiding. "This makes it look much more cheerful."
Many of those pictures can still be seen on the walls of the museum Bieber visited Friday.
Bieber has had a tough few weeks in Europe. He had to leave a monkey in quarantine after landing in Germany without the necessary papers for the animal. Before that, the 19-year-old singer had a trying stay in London. The star struggled with his breathing and fainted backstage at a show, was taken to a hospital and then was caught on camera clashing with a parapazzo. Days earlier, he was booed by his fans when he showed up late to a concert.
He performed in Arnhem, Netherlands, on Saturday night, and will next perform three nights in Oslo, Norway.

Jonathan Winters at the kick off of The Last 70mm Film Festival presented by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences at the Samuel Goldwyn theatre in Beverly Hills, Calif. Winters, whose breakneck improvisations inspired Robin Williams, Jim Carrey and many others, died Thursday at his Montecito, Calif., home of natural causes. He was 87.
Comedian Jonathan Winters dies remembered for improvisations
ASSOCIATED PRESS
LOS ANGELES — Jonathan Winters, the cherub-faced comedian whose breakneck improvisations and misfit characters inspired the likes of Robin Williams and Jim Carrey, has died. He was 87.
The Ohio native died Thursday evening at his Montecito, Calif., home of natural causes, said Joe Petro III, a longtime friend. He was surrounded by family and friends.
Winters was a pioneer of improvisational standup comedy, with an exceptional gift for mimicry, a grab bag of eccentric personalities and a bottomless reservoir of creative energy. Facial contortions, sound effects, tall tales — all could be used in seconds to get a laugh.
"Jonathan Winters was the worthy custodian of a sparkling and childish comedic genius. He did God's work. I was lucky 2 know him," Carrey tweeted on Friday.
On Jack Paar's television show in 1964, Winters was handed a foot-long stick, and he swiftly became a fisherman, violinist, lion tamer.
canoeist, U.N. dipul-
mat, bullfighter,
flutist, delusional
psychiatric patient,

and Bing Crosby's

"As a kid, I always wanted to be lots of things," he told U.S. News & World Report in
"The best stuff was before the cameras were on, when he was open and free to create," Williams once said. "Jonathan would just blow the doors off."
1988. "I was a Walter Mitty type. I wanted to be in the French Foreign Legion, a detective, a doctor, a test pilot with a scarf, a fisherman who hauled in a tremendous marlin after a 12-hour fight."
Carson, meanwhile, lifted Winters' Maude Frickert character almost intact for the long-running Aunt Blabby character he portrayed on "The Tonight Show."
"Beyond funny. He invented a new category of comedic genius," comedian Albert Brooks tweeted Friday.
In other Twitter posts, Richard Lewis called Winters "the greatest
The humor most often was based in reality — his characters Maude Frickert and Elwood P. Suggins, for example, were based on people Winters knew growing up in Ohio.
A devotee of Groucho Marx and Laurel and Hardy, Winters and his free-for-all brand of humor inspired Johnny Carson, Billy Crystal, Tracey Ullman and Lily Tomlin, among others. But Williams and Carare are his best-known followers.
Williams helped introduce Winters to new fans in 1981 as the son of Williams' goofball alien and his earthling wife in the final season of ABC's "Mork and Mindy."
"First, he was my idol; then he was my mentor and amazing friend. I'll miss him huge. He was my Comedy Buddha. Long live the Buddha," Williams said in a statement Friday.
The two often strayed from the script.
improvisational comedian of all time" and Roseanne Barr added "a genius has vanished this realm."
"Jonathan Winters was the worthy custodian of a sparkling and childish comedic genius."
Winters' only Emmy was for best supporting actor for playing Randy Quaid's father in the sitcom "Davis Rules" (1991). He was nominated again in 2003 as outstanding guest actor in a comedy series for an appearance on "Life With Bonnie"
"I knew him for 55 years, and he's always been silly, every moment of his life," veteran announcer Gary Owens, who collaborated with Winters on four comedy albums, recalled warmly Friday in an interview with the AP.
He also won two Grammys for his work on "The Little Prince" album in 1975 and for his "Crank Calls" comedy album in 1996.
He spoke by phone with him just two days ago, Owens said, and although frail, Winters still broke into a routine in which he was being pecked in the head by a pet perigrine falcon he claimed to keep by his bed.
Winters received the Kennedy
center's second, Mark Twain Prize
for Humor in 1999, a year after Richard Prvor.
JIM CARREY Actor
In later years, he was sought out for his changing voice and contributed to cartoons and animated
films. He played three characters in the "The Adventures of Rocky and Bullwinkle" movie in 2000.
The comedian quickly realized the possibilities, author David Hajdu wrote in The New York Times in 2006. He soon used video technology "to appear as two characters, bantering back and forth, seemingly in the studio at the same time. You could say he invented the video stunt."
The Internet Movie Database website credits him as the voice of Papa in the forthcoming "The Smurfs 2" film.
Winters was born Nov. 11, 1925, in Dayton, Ohio. Growing up during the Depression as an only child whose parents divorced when he was 7, he spent a lot of time entertaining himself.
He continued to work almost to the end of his life and to influence new generations of comics.
Winters made television history in 1956 when RCA broadcast the first public demonstration of color videotape on "The Jonathan Winters Show."
"No him, no me. No MOST of us, comedy-wise," comic Patton Oswalt tweeted Friday.
"She was very fast. Whatever humor I've inherited I'd have to give credit to her," he told the Cincinnati Enquirer in 2000.
Winters, who battled alcoholism in his younger years, described his father as an alcoholic. But he found a comedic mentor in his mother, radio personality Alice Bahman.
Winters joined the Marines at 17 and served two years in the South Pacific. He returned to study at the Dayton Art Institute, helping him develop keen observational skills.
After stints as a radio disc jockey and TV host in Ohio from 1950-53, he left for New York, where he found work doing impressions of John Wayne, Cary Grant, Marx and James Cagney, among others.
At one point, he won a talent contest by doing impressions of movie stars.
"He said, 'What's the matter with those characters in Ohio? I'll bet there are some far-out dudes that you grew up with back in Ohio," Winters told the Orange County Register in 1997.
One night after a show, an older man sweeping up told him he wasn't breaking any new ground by mimicking the rich or famous.
Two days later, he cooked up one of his most famous characters: the hard-drinking, dirty old woman Maude Frickert, modeled in part on his own mother and an aunt.
Appearances on Paar's show and others followed, and Winters soon had a following. Before long, he was struggling with depression and drinking.
"I became a robot," Winters told TV critics in 2000. "I almost lost my sense of humor ... I had a breakdown, and I turned myself in (to a mental hospital). It's the hardest thing I've ever to do."
Winters was hospitalized for eight months in the early 1960s. It's a topic he rarely addressed.
"If you make a couple of hundred thousand dollars a year and you're talking to the blue-collar guy who's a farmer 200 miles south of Topeka, he's looking up and saying, 'That bastard makes (all that money) and he's crying about being a manic depressive?' Winters said.
"it finally opened up and realized I was in charge," Winters told PBS interviewers for 2000's "Jonathan Winters: On the Loose." "Improvisation is about taking chances, and I was ready to take chances"
When he got out, there was a role as a slow-witted character waiting in the 1963 ensemble film "It's a Mad. Mad. Mad. Mad World."
Roles in other movies followed, as did TV shows, including his own.
While show business kept Winters busy, the former art school student was also a painter and writer. His paintings and sketches were often filled with humor.
"I find painting a much slower process than comedy, where you can go a mile a minute verbally and hope to God that some of the people out there understand you," he said in the 1988 U.S. News and World Report interview. "I don't paint every day. I'm not that motivated. I don't do anything the same every day. Discipline is tough for a guy who is a rebel."
Among his books is a collection of short stories called "Winters' Tales" (1987).
"I've done for the most part pretty much what I intended — I ended up doing comedy, writing and painting," he told U.S. News. "I've had a ball. And as I get older, I just become an older kid."
Winters' wife, Eileen, died in 2009. He is survived by two children, Lucinda Winters and Jay Winters.
LOCAI
Student to run Chicago Marathon
1034
KRISTA JOY MONTGOMERY editor@kansan.com
If the Chicago Marathon could be compared to a runner's Goliath, then Molly Morel is its David. She speaks in a quiet voice that expands with confidence as she describes the journey of her intensive six-month training regimen for the 26.2-mile run.
CONTRIBUTED PHOTO
Moreland, a junior studying history and pre-law, remembers the exact day she started running. July 9, 2011, was the day she says changed her life. Pre-diabetic, overweight and at her wits' end, Molly drove to a nearby trail determined to run as far as she possibly could. She remembers all the sensory details;the shades of the leaves on the trees, the way the sunlight reflected through the woods, and the post-run feeling that something big had happened.
Running a full marathon takes a lot of training to prepare for the 26.6 miles endurance challenge. Daily trainings require determination and a mind set to achieve a goal.
"The scariest thing is starting." Moreland says, "It's challenging yourself to do something you don't think you can do. It pushes you outside your comfort zone."
Moreland began a positive evolution, overcoming her fears and making mile-by-mile goals. Little by little her confidence and endurance grew, and in the process she lost fifty pounds and reversed her pre-diabetes.
Molly ran a half-marathon in Lawrence last April, completing the full 13.1 miles. After achieving that milestone, she began dreaming of running in the Chicago Marathon.
"It has a certain je ne sais quo, especially with entry being so coveted." she explains. "It's every runners' dream."
Encouraged in her diet and gym goals by her fiancé, Molly finally decided to enter.
"It was serendipitous," Moreland said, "because initially I wasn't even sure I could participate."
On the day that online registration opened, so many people scrambled for one of the 45,000 spots that the system crashed. Several days later, the marathon announced that 15,000 of those spots would
be raffled off in a random lottery. Moreland and her friend both entered the raffle, with Moreland winning the chance to run.
Moreland started brainstorming on how to turn her dream into a reality. She began training six days a week, with a schedule gradually leading her up to 20-mile daily runs by Oct. 13. In addition to training, she wanted to see her running have a positive effect on others. Moreland decided to try fundraising, and focused on her passion for animals. She wrote to 30 animal shelters and Wayside Waifs contacted her right away. The largest pet adoption center in Kansas City, Wayside Waifs is a non-profit animal shelter with no-nill policy.
Molly mentioned running the marathon was a huge personal
goal," said Megan Harding, manager of special events at the shelter. "Adding a charitable element takes it to another level. Helping the greater community through that goal is in line with our mission here at Wavside Waifs."
In exchange for paying the registration fee and sponsoring Moreland's race, she is fundraising for Wayside Waifs. Her goal is to raise $1,000 for the charity.
"it sounds so cliche," Moreland said, "but running is that one thing that makes me feel good about myself. And it's enabling me to spread that through the community. I think everyone needs to find that."

Texas teams leave Kansas winless in Big 12 play
TYLER CONOVER
tconover@kansan.com
FRIDAY
In need of a spark to make a run in the Big 12, the Jayhawk tennis team was unable to fend off a duo of teams from Texas. The No. 29 Texas Longhorns and the No. 15 Texas Tech Red Raiders were able to ground the Jayhawks to 0-6 in conference play. The loss dropped Kansas to 8-8 for the spring.
Kansas needed to start well
in order to be in good shape going into singles play against the Longhorns. Unfortunately, the Jayhawks dropped two of three in doubles play and were unable to overcome the early losses. The lone win in doubles play came from freshman Anastasija Trubica and senior Victoria Khanevskaya.
When singles play started,
Kansas was down 1-0 and was
unable to gain traction, losing
all but one match. The single
Jayhawk victory came from
Trubica, who played well all day. Going into the match, singles play was a concern for Kansas because Texas has two-time ITA All-American Aerial Ellis who, true to form, won in doubles play and beat Maria Jose Cardona (7-6, 6-2) in singles play.
The match was not how the Jayhawks wanted to enter Sunday's match against No.15 Texas Tech.
SUNDAY
For the second straight game.
Kansas lost two of three in doubles play, and for the second straight match, Anastasija Trubica and Victoria Khanevskaya were the lone duo to get a victory. Kansas, coming off a loss on Friday to Texas, was in need of a conference win to escape a last place conference tie and snap, a now, 21 game, Big 12 play losing streak.
The Jayhawks were unable to mount a comebreak and dropped the match 6-1. Managing two wins in singles play, the Jayhawks are left among the winless this
spring in Big 12 play. The only other school in the Big 12 without a conference win is West Virginia (0-7) as of Sunday.
Something will have to change this weekend as Kansas takes on West Virginia this Friday at the Jayhawk Tennis Center. The match is set to begin at 2 p.m.

Seniors Monica Engelman, Angel Goodrich and Carolyn Davis pose during Senior Night on March 5 at Allen Fieldhouse. The seniors combined for 43 points in their 74-67 win against Texas Christian University.
Goodrich and Davis await WNBA picks
mgoodwin@kansan.com
MAX GOODWIN
It is decision time for the 12 teams of the WNBA. Tonight at 7 p.m., each organization will decide which college seniors they are willing to bet the future of their franchises on in the 2013 WNBA Draft.
Angel Goodrich, the all-time assists leader in Kansas basketball history, is still waiting to find out where she will end up.
Some of the mock drafts Goodrich has seen project she will be drafted in the top half of the first round, but she wasn't one of the 12 players invited to attend the draft in New York, so she said she's not exactly sure what to expect.
"It is kind of like 'what does that mean?' Goodrich said. "I not too worried though. I'm just ready to get it over with, to see where I'm going."
New York Liberty coach Bill Laimbeer said the players who will be selected between the 4th and 16th picks are "pretty muddled together," according to a recent article on ESPNW.com. Kansas seniors Angel Goodrich and Carolyn Davis are both likely to be selected in that range.
"I've been working out all week, and that's where my mind has been because of everything," Goodrich said. "I just want to get to the point where I know where I'm going and just not think about it anymore."
The Phoenix Mercury are expected to select Baylor forward Brittney Griner for its first pick. The next two players off the board will be Notre Dame guard Skylar Diggins and Delaware forward Elena Della Donne. After that, the projections become anybody's guess.
Davis and Goodrich have dreamed about professional basketball since they were kids.
Goodrich, a 5-foot-4 point guard,
has the ability to make passes
that most others would never see,
according to Kansas coach Bonnie
Henrickson.
Davis, a 6-foot-3 forward, can dominate a game in transition or in half-court offense. Davis is known for her ability to catch any pass that comes into the post, and most of the time she finishes the play with a score, shooting over 60 percent and scoring 15.6 points per game in her career at Kansas.
Goodrich grew up playing basketball in the driveway with her brother. She would pretend she was Allen Iverson. She had his shoes and gear. She wore his number, three, on her jersey for most of her Kansas career.
"Because he was little and quick."
Goodrich said. "He was big time for me"
They have spent many evenings together watching WNBA or NBA games on TV. The two of them roomed together for a year in Jayhawker Towers and rented an apartment off-campus this past year.
Davis is a student of the game. She watches both NBA and WNBA games regularly and receives all of the updates on her phone. Goodrich watches the games Davis says will be a good matchup.
Goodrich said Davis is like an older sister, even though she's younger. Davis is an old soul.
"When I first got here, there wasn't anything about women's basketball," Goodrich said. "Nothing at all. I wanted to go somewhere where I could make a difference, and I feel like we did that."
Together they helped breathe new life into women's basketball at Kansas. Henrickson has said several times this season that when they leave, the program will be in a better place than it was when they arrived.
They met up in Kansas for a reason. Both hoped to make a difference at a major university.
Now, as Goodrich and Davis leave the program they came to change, they do so after two consecutive appearances in the Sweet Sixteen.
"I feel like we came in and made a little noise." Davis said after earning a trip to the Sweet Sixteen this season. "I think we've changed the face of women's basketball here."
Senior guard Monica Engelman said Goodrich and Davis are both smart, funny people. They are prone to sarcasm and keep their teammates laughing.
Though they are considering a couple of the same agents, they will make the decision separately.
Most people hope to make friends and memories that will last a lifetime during their college years.
"Now it's just like we're growing up and we've got to make our own decisions and figure out what's best for each other and ourselves," Goodrich said. "It's sad, but it's really exciting. We've been here. Now, that's our next step. It's just the next chapter of our book."
For Davis and Goodrich, those friends are their teammates and those memories are the collection of moments spent with them. Those memories include when their teammates would visit Davis and Goodrich's apartment.
Teammates would come over to use the washer and dryer, cook, watch the games and do each other's hair as they rested their legs after practices.
"It's the hang out spot," Goodrich said. "Like if our teammates just want to come off campus and hang out instead of just crunching in the Towers, it's a nice place for that. It's a really good place to just chill."
There are not many of those times left with their teammates for Goodrich and Davis in their apartment.
Both of them knew this day was coming. The next time Davis and Goodrich are on the same court, it will likely be in different uniforms. No more going out to eat together after wins to celebrate; no more staying up late and dissecting the mistakes made in a loss.
They will likely be parting ways after tonight, but neither Davis nor Goodrich can forget how they witnessed each other grow during their time in Lawrence. In the beginning, they hardly spoke, but before long they became inseparable.
"I hope we get together at least one more time to hang out because we're not going to see each other," Goodrich said.
Goodrich used her experience recovering from two torn ACLs to help Davis recover from a torn ACL and dislocated knee last year. It was the type of injury that could end a career. Davis has told Goodrich about her life and taught her how to push through the difficult times with a smile and a positive attitude.
They've learned a lot from each other.
The apartment they share, the one that was so often filled with sounds of laughing teammates, the smells of dinner simmering and the feeling of home, will soon be empty.
1
After tonight, Davis and Goodrich will likely take divergent paths, but the lessons they taught each other will remain ingrained in each of them.
"I don't know where she's gonna end up or where I'm gonna end up," Goodrich said. "But I hope that we stay connected wherever we go because that's a friendship that I really want to keep. We've been through so much together these last four years. I love her like a sister: She's family."

Senior infielder Mariah Montgomery hits the ball while at bat in the first inning of the game against Independence Community College at Arrocha Ballpark on Sept. 26. Kansas dominated the game, winning the five-inning no-hitter 12-0. The Jayhawks had a similarly strong weekend in South Carolina with an 11-1 win over Furman University to clinch the series win.

The Kansas softball team bbounced back from an inconsistent Saturday doubleheader and dominated Furman University 11-1 on Sunday morning to cap off the weekend series in Greensville, S.C.
cschaeder@kansan.com
Kansas defeated Furman 4-0 in the first game of Saturday's doubleheader, and sophomore Alicia Pille threw her fifth shutout of the season. Junior second baseman Ashley Newman and sophomore third blaseman Chanin Naudin each had two hits.
Although Jones retired 15-straight batters after the second inning, a two-run second inning by Furman was enough to defeat the Jayhawks in the second game of Saturday's doubleheader.
The game was scoreless until the top of the sixth inning when senior Rosie Hull drove in freshman Alex Hugo on an RBI single to right center. A bunt single by Newman down the first base line brought Hull home for Kansas' second run of the game. The final two runs for the Jayhawks came on a pitching error on a slap grounder by junior
center fielder Alex Jones.
Furman pitcher Lauren Collier threw a complete game shutout and only allowed four hits. Collier also had one of the Paladins' two RBIs, along with first baseman Stephanie Spain.
Coach Megan Smith was disappointed in her team's performance on Saturday.
"Yesterday was a rough day for us; we were really flat," Smith said. "We were struggling with our focus on the game, but we bounced back Sunday. Our pitching and defense was great this weekend, and our offense struggled until today."
Kansas' offense came together on Sunday with 13 hits, including four doubles and a two-run home run by sophomore third baseman
Chanin Naudin in the top of the first inning.
The Jayhawks scored in each of the game's first three innings. Eight consecutive Kansas batters reached base during the inning and paved the way for only Forturans second run-rule loss of the season.
Pille pitched five superb innings with 10 strikeouts and no walks. An unearned run was the only score for Furman on Sunday as the Jayhawk offense and Pille's dominating pitching performance paved the way for a Kansas victory.
"I think it [the weekend] went well," Pille said. "Our team came out a little slow, but I feel like we really picked it up at the end of the weekend and it definitely showed."

The Kansas rowing team had a strong showing in the fours at the Knecht Cup Saturday and Sunday, with the varsity four and second varsity four teams leading the way by winning gold in the Grand Finals.
The varsity four boat was one of four Kansas boats that qualified for their respective Grand Finals on Sunday. The other four boats that qualified were the Kansas A and Kansas B second varsity four boats and the second varsity eight boat. Two other Jayhawk boats, the varsity eight and novice eight, qualified for the Petite Finals.
four final. The Kansas A boat won gold with a time of 7:52.24, and the Kansas B boat finished. 44 seconds behind the New Hampshire boat with a time of 7:57.94 to earn bronze. The Kansas A boat members are senior Emily Starr, junior Carly Iverson and sophomores Angie Flores, Andrea Joyce and coxswain Sarah Lasini. The Kansas B boat members are senior Ashlyn Midyett, juniors Meghan Cahill, Kelsia Fiss, sophomore Alle Griffin and coxswain Abbey Lozenski.
Saturday competition included heats and semifinals to qualify for the finals on Sunday. The top six fastest boats in each event qualified to compete in the Grand Finals, and the next six boats went on to compete in the Petite Finals.
The next event on Sunday was the second varsity eight grand final. The Kansas second varsity eight boat had won its last four races before the Knecht Cup. On Sunday, this boat took home silver with a time of 6:48.02, finishing behind Northeastern with a time of 6:47.20.
The next event Sunday was varsity four grand final. The Kansas boat, senior coxswain Katy MacCormack, junior Jessica Miller, Kaylee Sextro and Emma Umbarger, and senior Eileen Gallagher, earned the gold medal with a time of 7:44.84, more than four seconds faster than Bucknell, which won silver.
Sunday, the first event Kansas competed in was the second varsity
Next up was the novice eight petite final where the Kansas boat boated fourth place. This boat earned a spot in the petite final by finishing third in their seminal.
This is the third year in a row that Kansas has competed in the Knecht Cup in Cherry Hill, N.J. This regatta featured more than 60 schools and 34 events in men's and women's rowing.

The drought is over. The Kansas men's golf team got its first team title since 2010 on Sunday, an exciting to end to a rather disappointing regular season. The Jayhawks claimed victory at the Hawkeye-Great River Entertainment Invitational in Iowa City, Iowa behind the T-1 individual efforts of senior Chris Gilbert.
Edited by Elise Reuter
"He really doesn't have any certain weakness," Kansas coach Jamie Bermel said. "He has a lot of maturity out there."
Gilbert finished in red numbers two of the tournament's three rounds for a 5-under tournament total.
that are there," Bermel said. "There were several ranked teams ahead of us, and obviously we showed we can measure up against those teams, and going into the Big 12s, that's huge."
As a team, Kansas shot a 3-over 291 in the closing round - one
"He chipped and putted the ball really well today," Bermel said. "He made a lot of birds on the perives today and that really helped."
stroke being enough to hold off a University of Iowa squad that carded a 4-under team score Sunday.
"It was touch-and-go for the last couple of holes," Bermel said, "We knew it was close, we just didn't know how close."
Sophomore Stan Gautier helped Kansas to the top of the podium with a 4-under tournament scorecard. Gautier's third place finish along with senior Alex Gutesh's T-11 helped the team piece together a puzzle its been trying to solve throughout the 2013 season.
"We were in a position like this earlier in the spring, and we just didn't play well," Bermel said. "Here, I think we just kind of got a sense of what it takes to play well."
Despite the win, an otherwise poor regular season resume has left Kansas' ranking far from what it would need to be to qualify for NCAA regionals. Gilbert will be able to qualify for regionals as an individual. Kansas' only way to make regionals would be to win the Big 12 tournament.
The field featured five teams in the top-100, although none of them were in the top-50. But that doesn't take much away from Bermel's first win as coach at Kansas.
The tournament will be at
A Prairie Dunes Country Club in
Hutchinson from April 22-24.
"You can only beat the teams
"A couple of guys have played there, but I do know it is a hard golf course with a lot of wind," Bermel said. "My expectations are to go there and play well. I have no idea what good scores are there, but we'll find out."

WOMEN'S GOLF
Team receives 'confidence booster'
chybl@kansan.com
CHRIS HYBL
A second place finish at the Indiana Invitational at the Indiana University Golf Course wasn't a great look for the Kansas women's golf team. But with a 12-team field and only three participants in the top-100 rankings, it was a good chance for a season-best finish, and the lavhawks took advantage.
"All of them did a real good job of staying in their game and playing to their strengths," coach Erin O'Neil said. "This will be a good confidence booster."
Kansas shot the lowest team field score the last two rounds of the tournament and was just three strokes off Indiana, the host and winner of the tournament.
Kansas finished at +29 for the tournament with the help of three Jayhawks. Junior Anttuntta Boonraksasat, freshman Yupaporn Kawinpakorn and senior Audrey Yowell all placed in the top-10 individually with Booknraksasat (2nd place) earning her second straight top-5 finish.
"We didn't give anything away; IU earned it," O'Neil said. "We didn't give it to them by any stretch. They focused on what was in their control and not getting caught up in what Indiana was doing."
"Fhong (Boonrakasat) did a great job of being consistent throughout the tournament," O'Neil said. "She's had two solid tournaments back-to-back and is playing real well."
The good play is too late for
the Jayhawks though; ranked at 108, the team is unlikely to make its way into the top-65 cut for the NCAA regionals. The Big 12 Championships will be the team's last chance for improvement, but it should be easy for the Jayhawks — they finished last in the tournament in 2012.
"This reinforces that they can do it," O'Neil said. "That they have the ability and all their hard work is paying off. If you have to pick a time for it to show up, this is when you want it to happen. We're definitely peaking at the right time."
The tournament will be hosted by Iowa State at the Harvester Golf Club in Rhodes, Iowa on April 19 through 21.

TRIVIA OF THE DAY

THE MORNING BREW Torn Achilles not the end for Bryant
Q: Where does Kobe Bryant's jersey rank in market sales?
NBA.com
-
Ever since I was young I have been a die-hard Laker fan. While growing up, watching Kobe Bryant was probably one of the most exciting things I saw as a sports fan. Even in his 17th season he still amazes me with everything that he had. Being 19 years old, I truly do not know what life is like without him, mainly because I have never seen a Lakers roster without his name on it. Even the thought of him never playing basketball again makes me speecless.
By Ryan Levine
rlevine@kansan.com
Legacies often go untouched. And I think I speak for most of the basketball world when I say Bryant's legacy is one that another player could not begin to approach. His influence on and off the floor is something I am sure will never be comprehensible. He has made basketball a global phenomenon in which the sport is more popular now than it has ever
been. Bryant is a star in the basketball world, and playing in Los Angeles has allowed him to emerge as a celebrity as well.
Let me be clear: I do not believe Bryant's career is over. Let's face it — no injury has ever stopped him from playing before. In fact, I'm pretty sure he never had those torn ligaments in his finger repaired. I do believe, however, that he
will not be the same player he was when he returns. A torn Achilles is usually a career-ending injury.
I have had my own injuries, and have learned through my experiences that they are not easy to overcome. He knows the challenges that lie ahead of him, and understands the obstacles he has to face. But he will be back.
Without a doubt, Bryant is one of the best players the game has ever seen. To compare him to Michael Jordan or any other player is just ridiculous and unfair to both of them. Bryant is his own player. Sure, he might be the closest thing to Jordan we will ever see, but both of them have done different things that make them unique.
Everyone is thinking this is the end for one of the greats — at least many people are thinking that. We can all
KU
doubt Bryant as much as we want, but the fact of the matter is that his haters are his motivators. If there is one thing he loves more than anything in this world, it is when people tell he cannot do something.
Never could anyone have imagined something like this happening to Bryant. Whether you are a Kobe-lover or a Kobe-hater, seeing a star like him go down like he did is something no one ever wants to see. But I have faith, he will be back. He won't be the same Kobe we all know, but he will be back.

TEXAS HOLD 'EM
Jayhawks come up short, losing second game in weekend series
TREVOR GRAFF
tgraff@kansan.com
Kansas sophomore left-handed pitcher Wes Benjamin's complete game performance wasn't enough to propel the Jayhawks to a win in Saturday's 2-1 loss in game two of their weekend series against Texas.
Benjamin gave up two earned runs on five hits, four walks and acquired four strikeouts while using 119 pitches. These statistics are as good as can be expected on the mound, but Texas sophomore left-handed pitcher Dillon Peters
did Benjamin one better.
The highly touted Longhorn lefty gave up the Jayhawks' lone earned run on six hits with three strikeouts and one walk in 120 pitches.
"I thought Wes did a great job," coach Ritch Price said. "Obviously he could cut down on the walks, but the great thing about the performance is it gave us a chance to save our bullpen, which is critical after going 12 innings yesterday."
The Longhorns took the early lead on an RBI single from junior catcher Jacob Felts in the second
inning and a sacrifice fly from junior right fielder Mark Payton in the fourth.
From that point on, Benjamin calmed on the mound, finding more control and settling in to allow just four base runners in the final six innings.
"After the third inning, I switched it up a bit with my mechanics." Benjamin said. "I quit throwing across my body so much, and that eventually helped out especially down the stretch and into the ninth inning. I was just running on adrenaline there."
The layhawk struggled at the plate collecting six hits and one run off a Tucker Tharp RBI double in the seventh inning.
"He came at us with a lot of fastballs," senior first baseman Alex DeLeon said of Peters. "We just couldn't get it going. It was just tough. Wes had a great performance. It was tough that we couldn't put up a couple of runs for him. Now it's just important that we come back and win the series at home."
several hits from the Kansas lineup and preventing the Jayhawks from manufacturing runs.
The Longhorns brought their best game to the field, stealing
"They played great defense today," DeLeon said. "A couple of guys smoked some balls that ended up being right at them. We just didn't get the breaks today, but that's baseball."
Coach Price planned to start sophomore right-hander Robert Kahana Sunday after pulling junior right-hander Frank Duncan from the starting rotation earlier in the week.
after Saturday's pitching duel.
"When you play in this league and face pitching as good as that, you walk back in tomorrow and it's a brand new day." Price said. "You want the guys to walk in here not even thinking about yesterday."
Coach Price isn't discouraged
Kahana faced Texas junior right-hander Nathan Thornhill on the mound in a 1 p.m. first pitch at Hoglund Ballpark yesterday.

COMMENTARY
Spring game shows promise
By Pat Strathman pstrathman@kansan.com
Nearly a year ago, the Kansas football team — under coach Charlie Weis in his first year took the field for the annual spring game.
Former Notre Dame quarterback Dayne Crist looked sharp, accurately slinging the football around the field to different wide receivers. Running back Tony Pierson broke off big runs.
There finally was a buzz around Kansas football.
Fast forward to the end of the 2012 season, and the Jayhawks recorded one fewer victory than in the previous season. However, Kansas stayed competitive in most games only to end up losing in the final quarters.
On Saturday, it felt like déjà vu.
Another transfer quarterback led the charge, but this time, it was junior Jake Heaps. The former BYU player racked up 257 yards on 20 for 28 passing with four touchdowns. Pierson once again showed his big-play ability.
kansan.com
The buzz that was lost at the end of last season reappeared after the gar-
Something feels different though.
The primary running backs in Pierson, James Sims, Taylor Cox and Brandon Bourbon all return. Linebackers Jake Love and Ben Heeney are making another appearance for the 2013 season.
That's not at all surprising, but Kansas finally has a true threat in junior-transfer wide receiver lustin McCav.
The former Oklahoma wide out recorded eight receptions for 99 yards with one touchdown. Those numbers don't pop off the stat book, but his one-handed grab for 47 yards while being guarded caught the fans' eyes.
McCay has yet to record any of official stats in college, but he was once ranked as a four star coming out of high school.
Still, it's clear to see that Heaps has a favorite target, and that's a great sign.
The chemistry between Heaps and McCay will be crucial for the upcoming season. Luckily, they already have a head start.
Since they were transfers, both of them had to sit out for a full season. Sure, that hurt Crist and the Jayhawks this past season, but during the offseason. Heaps and McCay made sure to work with each other early on.
If both Heaps and McCay continue to build on their relationship, the Jay-hawks might see something special.
Picture this: the next big-time quarterback-wide receiver duo since Todd Reesing and Dezmon Briscoe.
I know, it was just a spring football game. Neither Heaps nor McCay have proven themselves.
But why not make the comparison?
The past three years have been a disaster for the Kansas quarterback-receiver duos. Last year, it was Crist and Kale Pick, and no wide receiver caught a touchdown. The year before that was Jordan Webb and Pick, which resulted in two touchdowns. In 2010, the duo was Webb and Davidm Patterson.
The big-time combination has been drastically missing since Reesing and Briscoe, but that might soon change.
Heaps doesn't have the mobility like Reesing, but he certainly has the arm. McCay is lacking in speed, but he has a similar frame and athleticism as Briscoe.
Look, it's a long stretch, but the possibility is there and has time to develop with both being juniors.
We'll just have to wait and see it develop in the fall.

MESSING WITH TEXAS
Jayhawks find opportunities in Texas' errors despite stiff competition
FARZIN VOUSOUGHIAN
fyousoughian@kansan.com
Kansas took advantage of back-to back errors committed by Texas in the bottom of the sixth and scored the go-ahead run to pick up a 4-3 victory yesterday.
Junior right fielder Tucker Tharp reached on an error in the bottom of the sixth. Another errortranslated into a run for Tharp to allow Kansas to retake the lead and pick up the win.
"I hit a high chopper to second and luckily I got down the line well and the guy didn't make the play." Tharp said. "We took advantage of it. It was good for us to get some momentum back in the dugout after they just put up two."
Despite having to battle through struggles during the season, Tharp elevated his game against Texas. He was responsible for the game-winning RBI in the 12th inning of Fridays' game, and had the only RBI in Saturday's loss.
Now, he's overcome adversity and struggles by stepping up and making big plays when Kansas needs it the most.
"He's a really important player for us," said Kansas coach Ritch Price. "He's one of the most competitive guys in our program. He invests and he cares. For him to have a huge weekend and lead us to a series win, I couldn't be more happy for him."
Kansas played well defensively, committing just one error in 30
innings against Texas. After junior closer Jordan Piche' pitched four and two-third innings in Friday's win, he pulled on again on Sunday with a multi-inning save.
The Longhorns added base runners in the eighth and ninth innings to try and force extra innings, but Piche' fought out of the jams to pick up his eight eighth of the year.
"I'm really happy with the way I pitched," Piche said. "It was nerve-wracking, but I controlled it well. With the defense behind me, I'm not afraid to pitch to contact and I felt good coming out of the bullpen."
The Jayhawks took two of three games in the series, making the first series win over Texas since sweeping the series played in Lawrence
in 2009.
All of the games between Kansas and Texas this series were one-run games. The Jayhawks won Friday 7-6 in 12 innings and won Sunday 4-3. The Longhorns emerged victorious with a 2-1 final score on Saturday.
"That's two good teams playing and that's good baseball baseball". Piche' said. "You can't go wrong playing Texas. We came out to perform and play the best to our ability."
Kansas pitching coach Ryan Graves was ejected after the top of the seventh inning and must serve a one-game suspension this Tuesday.
The Jayhawks, now 22-13 and 7-5 in Big 12 play, will participate in non-conference action this week.
Kansas will go to Omaha, Neb.
Tuesday and take on Creighton
at 6:30 p.m. The team will leave
Omaha immediately and return to
Hoglund Ballpark to play Ottawa
Wednesday at 6 p.m.
The Jayhawks resume conference play on Friday for a threegame series in Lubbock, Texas against Texas Tech, and look to pick up their third straight series win against conference opponents.
"We've got to keep doing what we are doing." Piche' said. "A lot of guys are working really hard. We've just got to keep up on that. Guys are pitching well too. Going into next weekend, we'll take it day-by-day and get our work in."

Offense shines in spring football game

Kansas junior quarterback Jake Heaps shipped by completing 20 of 28 passes for 257 yards and four touchdowns in Saturday's spring game to lift the Blue team to a 34-7 win over the White team. Local media voted Heaps co-offensive MVP for the game.
Kansas coach Charlie Weis said there were a couple of plays that Heaps could have executed better, but for the most part, the BYU transfer lived up to Weis' expectations.
Junior quarterback Jake Heaps passes the ball during the second half of the Spring Game Saturday afternoon. Kansas' 2013 season will begin on Sept. 7 against South Dakota.
"You've got to be encouraged when you watch him play." Weis said. "Strong arm, accurate, and knows how to read coverages."
Heaps' biggest target in Saturday's spring game was junior wide receiver justin McCay, who shared the offensive MVP title with Heaps. McCay's eightceptions helped produce 99 yards and a touchdown for the Blue squad.
Hea's and McCay spent a lot of time this offseason working together and carried it over to Saturday for fans to see. McCay sat out last year, but will be an essential part of the lawhaws' offense in 2013.
TRAVIS YOUNG/KANSAN
"What we need is a dynamic football player to go down and stretch the defense and make plays down field." Heaps said. "With him
going out there and showcasing what he did, that's phenomenal. It helps our team a lot and it raises the expectations for these other receivers as well."
Heaps and McCay, both transfer players, had to sit out in 2012 because of NCAA transfer rules. The two players spent 2012 watching their teammates every Saturday and learning as much as they could before stepping into their shoes.
McCay played in three games as a redshirt freshman at the University of Oklahoma in 2011, including one against Kansas. As a Sooner, McCay did not accumulate any statistics and still awaits his first catch in a college football game.
Although McCay has yet to make a name for himself, he is already a key player as Heaps continues to be the leader for Kansas. The quarterback-wide receiver duo showed a lot of potential for this season in the spring game.
"It's a lot of fun to see him go out there and perform and play as well as he did." Heaps said. "Now we're going to expect that from him every single day."

contributor under Weis' offense.
"It definitely humbles you," McCay said "It makes you more hungry when you get on the field. I'm just trying to compete."
On Monday, the players will visit doctors and trainers to check up on injuries. Later in the week, the players will watch the spring game and receive offseason evaluations from the coaching staff. The players will have meetings with their
position coaches on Wednesday and Thursday.
The players will soon begin summer conditioning. The team will report for fall camp in August to prepare for its season opener at home against the University of South Dakota on Sept. 7.

ASSOCIATED PRESS
BOSTON — Two bombs exploded in the crowded streets near the finish line of the Boston Marathon on Monday, killing three people and injuring more than 130 in a bloody scene of shattered glass and severed limbs that raised alarms that terrorists might have struck again in the U.S.
A White House official speaking on condition of anonymity because the investigation was still unfolding said the attack was being treated as an act of terrorism.
President Barack Obama vowed
that those responsible will "feel the full weight of justice."
The twin blasts took place about 10 seconds and about 100 yards apart, knocking spectators and at least one runner off their feet, shattering windows and sending dense plumes of smoke rising over the street and through the fluttering national flags lining the course.
A senior U.S. intelligence official said two other bombs were found near the end of the 26.2-mile course in what appeared to be a well-coordinated attack.
Authorities shed no light on a motive or who may have carried
Some 23,000 runners took part in the race, one of the world's oldest and most prestigious marathons.
out the bombings, and police said they had no suspects in custody. Authorities in Washington said there was no immediate claim of responsibility. The FBI took charge of the investigation.
Boston Police Commissioner
At Massachusetts General Hospital, Alisair DConn, chief of emergency services, said: "This is something I've never seen in my 25 years here ... this amount of carnage in the civilian population. This is what we expect from war."
Edward Davis asked people to stay indoors or go back to their hotel rooms and avoid crowds as bomb squads methodically checked parcels and bags left along the race route. He said investigators didn't know whether the bombs were hidden in mailboxes or trash can, and that authorities had received "no specific intelligence that anything was going to happen" at the race.
With scant official information to guide them, members of Congress said there was little or no doubt it was an act of terrorism.
"We still don't know who did this or why," Obama said at the White House, adding, "Make no mistake: We will get to the bottom of this."
"We just don't know whether its foreign or domestic," said Rep. Michael McCaul, R-Texas, chairman of the House Committee on Homeland Security.
The attack may have been timed for maximum carnage: The four-hour mark is typically a crowded time near the finish line because of the slow-but-steady recreational runners completing the race and because of all the relatives and friends clustered around to cheer them on.

BOSTON — Two bombs exploded in the crowded streets near the finish line of the Boston Marathon on Monday, killing three people and injuring more than 130 in a bloody scene of shattered glass and severed limbs that raised alarms that terrorists might have struck again in the U.S.
A White House official speaking on condition of anonymity because the investigation was still unfolding said the attack was being treated as an act of terrorism.
President Barack Obama vowed
that those responsible will "feel the full weight of justice."
The twin blasts took place about 10 seconds and about 100 yards apart, knocking spectators and at least one runner off their feet, shattering windows and sending dense plumes of smoke rising over the street and through the fluttering national flags lining the course.
A senior U.S. intelligence official said two other bombs were found near the end of the 26.2-mile course in what appeared to be a well-coordinated attack.
Authorities shed no light on a motive or who may have carried
out the bombings, and police said they had no suspects in custody. Authorities in Washington said there was no immediate claim of responsibility. The FBI took charge of the investigation.
Some 23,000 runners took part in the race, one of the world's oldest and most prestigious marathons.
At Massachusetts General Hospital, Alisdair Conn, chief of emergency services, said: "This is something I've never seen in my 25 years here ... this amount of carnage in the civilian population. This is what we expect from war."
Boston Police Commissioner
Edward Davis asked people to stay indoors or go back to their hotel rooms and avoid crowds as bomb squads methodically checked parcels and bags left along the race route. He said investigators didn't know whether the bombs were hidden in mailboxes or trash can, and that authorities had received "no specific intelligence that anything was going to happen" at the race.
"We still don't know who did this or why." Obama said at the White House, adding, "Make no mistake: We will get to the bottom of this."
With scant official information to guide them, members of Congress said there was little or no doubt it was an act of terrorism.
"We just don't know whether it's foreign or domestic," said Rep. Michael McCaul, R-Texas, chairman of the House Committee on Homeland Security.
Index
The attack may have been timed for maximum carnage: The four-hour mark is typically a crowded time near the finish line because of the slow-but-steady recreational runners completing the race and because of all the relatives and friends clustered around to cheer them on.

Letter from the Editor
My favorite part about moving out of the dorms was the ability to decorate my room without having to consider a roommates' décor preferences. I didn't have to worry about how my bed and desk were positioned. It may seem silly, but at first, the concept of such freedom was overwhelming. The thought of being able to hang any artwork I wanted drove me to countless stores.
But after a few restless hours of having my father drag every piece of my furniture to every wall and corner of my room, I finally found the perfect way to organize my room. And the best part was I didn't feel guilty if I forgot to make my bed before heading to class. I could monopolize the remote without having to compromise on my favorite shows.
The transition period between moving out of your cramped, sterile dorm room to your very own place is an exciting time. You finally get to trade in that twin XL mattress for a space of your own. But with this newfound freedom, you'll find you're gaining more than your own bathroom. You're also gaining responsibilities.
Although living off campus may sound like a dream come true, the transition period isn't completely smooth. It didn't take long for me to realize what I missed most about the dorms were the conveniences that came with student housing.I could no longer step outside and catch a bus to class from my doorstep. If I was hungry, I couldn't take the elevator down to the dining hall to find an endless assortment of food awaiting me.
Moving into your own space means out with the old and in with the new. This is the perfect time to embrace change and cleanse

yourself of unnecessary clutter that may be weighing you down and keeping you from creating a positive, organized space. Don't let the idea of your own space let you become a hoarder. As badly as I wanted to bring my entire wardrobe to Lawrence, space didn't allow me such a luxury. One of the biggest lessons I learned was the importance of organization.
Before becoming a self-proclaimed neat freak, I had to sit down and sift through my belongings. Separating the items I couldn't live without from those I wouldn't miss was difficult. However, it was a vital step in helping me live in a more organized and clutter-free environment. Not to mention I have fewer boxes to pack at the end of the school year.
The bottom line is this — embrace your time in the dorms while you can, and prepare yourself for the transition period. Moving into your own off-campus housing is more than throwing all your belongings in boxes and loading them into your trunk.

Junior quarterback Jake Heaps passes the ball during the second half of the Spring Game Saturday afternoon. Kansas' 2013 season will begin on Sept. 7 against South Dakota.
I know, it was just a spring rootau game. Neither Heaps nor McCay have proven themselves.
But why not make the comparison?
The way he makes the comparison.
The past three years have been a disaster for the Kansas quarterback receiver duos. Last year, it was Crist and Kale Pick, and no wide receiver caught a touchdown. The year before that was Jordan Webb and Pick, which resulted in two touchdowns. In 2010, the duo was Webb and Daymond Patterson.
TRAVIS YOUNG/KANSAN
The big-time combination has been drastically missing since Reesing and Briscoe, but that might soon change.
Heaps doesn't have the mobility like Reesing, but he certainly has the arm. McCay is lacking in speed, but he has a similar frame and athleticism as Briscoe.
Look, it's a long stretch, but the possibility is there and has time to develop with both being juniors.
We'll just have to wait and see it develop in the fall.
Edited by Allison Hammond
win over the White team. Local media voted Heaps co-offensive MVP for the game.
Kansas coach Charlie Weis said there were a couple of plays that Heaps could have executed better, but for the most part, the BYU transfer lived up to Weis' expectations.
"You've got to be encouraged when you watch him play." Weis said. "Strong arm, accurate, and knows how to read coverages."
Heaps' biggest target in Saturday's spring game was junior wide receiver justin McCay, who shared the offensive MVP title with Heaps. McCay's eight receptions helped produce 99 yards and a touchdown for the Blue squad.
Heaps and McCay spent a lot of time this offseason working together and carried it over to Saturday for fans to see. McCay sat out last year, but will be an essential part of the Jayhawks' offense in 2013.
"What we need is a dynamic football player to go down and stretch the defense and make plays down field," Heaps said. "With him
McCay played in three games as a redshirt freshman at the University of Oklahoma in 2011, including one against Kansas. As a Sooner, McCay did not accumulate any statistics and still awaits his first catch in a college football game.
Although McCay has yet to make a name for himself, he is already a key player as Heaps continues to be the leader for Kansas. The quarterback-wide receiver duo showed a lot of potential for this season in the spring game.

"It's a lot of fun to see him go out there and perform and play as well as he did." Heaps said. "Now we're going to expect that from him every single day."

"It definitely humbles you," McCay said. "It makes you more hungry when you get on the field. I must just try to compete."
On Monday, the players will visit doctors and trainers to check up on injuries. Later in the week, the players will watch the spring game and receive offseason evaluations from the coaching staff. The players will have meetings with their
position coaches on Wednesday and Thursday.
The players will soon begin summer conditioning. The team will report for fall camp in August to prepare for its season opener at home against the University of South Dakota on Sept. 7.

Letter from the Editor
Moving into an apartment for the first time can be liberating. You no longer have to share a single small dorm room with someone else and you don't have to deal with co-ed showers. Moving out of a dorm and into an apartment might seem like a fantastic endeavor, but not all apartments are created equal.
Some apartments are so small the living room and the kitchen are one room. Keep this in mind when purchasing furniture. Don't buy a large dining room table to place in a tiny kitchen. You'll never have space to walk around. If your kitchen has a high breakfast bar, opt for bar stools instead of buying a table at all. This also applies to buying a couch or chair for your living room. Measure the size of your room before buying furniture; that way you don't have a mega couch for a small-scale room. Less is more in this scenario.
Having your own room and bathroom might be positive items to note, but pay attention to the size of your apartment. If you are thinking about moving into a small apartment, or you are currently living in one, be conscious of space.
In smaller apartments storage can be limited. In tiny kitchens there might only be one or two drawers and limited cabinet space. Purchasing extra shelving or bins to keep things neatly out of the way can be helpful. If you have too much stuff and have no place to put it, rent a storage unit to store your stuff during the year. This will keep your stuff safe and out of the way.
Just because your new rental is small doesn't mean it can't look great. Utilize the wall space in the apartment. Searching for wall art like paintings, metal signs and University posters can give your pad a personal feel. Building shelves or a bookcase can get a lot of items out of the way.
No matter how big or small your new place is, make it comfortable for you. Buy items that make it feel like a home instead of just another apartment.
Good luck with settling into your new home.

FURNISHING
CUSTOMIZING YOUR SPACE ON A BUDGET
KELSEY BARRETT
kbarrett@kansan.com
A dorm, apartment, or house serves as a home-away-from-home for college students. Adding some simple, stylish pieces can bring life into a space to make it feel more inviting. Customizing on a budget doesn't need to be difficult, but in order to stay within that budget, it is important to source multiple stores.
Target carries a line of furniture by the name of Room Essentials. It offers many basic items to accompany dorm life that also work for apartment living. They offer items for all different areas including kitchen space, bedroom, study area and bathroom. Most of the items in this line are reasonably priced, but there are a few items that seem to cost a bit too much. For example, they offer shower curtains for as low as $10 and fleece blankets at $14. Room Essentials is also a good resource for finding sets of things, like a 12-piece dish set for $22 or kitchen utensil bundles for less than $8. A general search for Room Essentials on Target's website will lead to all available products but then allows filtering by category, price, guest rating, colors and if the item is also available in store.
Walmart is similar to Target in that it offers items created specifically for college living. Currently they have a "dorm in a box value
bundle" for $85 that includes one "bed in a bag"
set, one wheeled storage truck, one 4-piece bath
towel set and one 2-pack of microfiber pillows.
There is the option to pick from different colors
and patterns.
Lowe's is usually associated with home improvement, and not a place where people buy decorative items for their apartment. They do offer supplies for projects and expertise, but they also carry some products that would be good for storage and organization as well as decor. They carry a hanging shoe organizer that can save space by storing 16 pairs of shoes on the back of a door for $10. Accent pillows are another fair-priced item that is a surprising offer. There is a range of prices and styles available but some pillows on sale are as low as $2.49 in addition to a dozen under $10.
MARKET DAILY
Amazon is always a good resource to save some money because it offers new and used items. The site offers a large number of in-depth reviews on almost all of its products. When searching through the home decor section, it offers a feature to filter either by item type or a general color category. The color feature would be useful for carrying out a color scheme. Also many items qualify for "super saver shipping" which can save some additional bucks. Again, this is a site that carries a wide variety of items but one particular deal is a 6-piece towel set

Junior quarterback Jake Heaps passes the ball during the second half of the Spring Game Saturday afternoon. Kansas' 2013 season will begin on Sept. 7 against South Dakota.

I know, it was just a spring totoa game. Neither Heaps nor McCay have proven themselves.
But why not make the comparison?
The past three years have been a disaster for the Kansas quarterback-receiver duos. Last year, it was Crist and Kale Pick, and no wide receiver caught a touchdown. The year before that was Jordan Webb and Pick, which resulted in two touchdowns. In 2010, the duo was Webb and Daymond Patterson.
TRAVIS YOUNG/KANSAN
The big-time combination has been drastically missing since Reesing and Briscoe, but that might soon change.
Heaps doesn't have the mobility like Reeing, but he certainly has the arm. McCay is lacking in speed, but he has a similar frame and athleticism as Briscoe.
Look, it's a long stretch, but the possibility is there and has time to develop with both being juniors.
We'll just have to wait and see it develop in the fall.

win over the White team. Local media voted Heaps co-offensive MVP for the game.
Kansas coach Charlie Weis said there were a couple of plays that Heaps could have executed better, but for the most part, the BYU transfer lived up to Weis' expectations.
"You've got to be encouraged when you watch him play." Weis said. "Strong arm, accurate, and knows how to read coverages."
Heaps' biggest target in Saturday's spring game was junior wide receiver justin McCay, who shared the offensive MVP title with Heaps. McCay's eightceptions helped produce 99 yards and a touchdown for the Blue squad.
Heaps and McCay spent a lot of time this offseason working together and carried it over to Saturday for fans to see. McCay sat out last year, but will be an essential part of the lavhawk's offense in 2013.
"What we need is a dynamic football player to go down and stretch the defense and make plays down field," Heaps said. "With him
McCay played in three games as a redshirt freshman at the University of Oklahoma in 2011, including one against Kansas. As a Sooner, McCay did not accumulate any statistics and still awaits his first catch in a college football game.
Although McCay has yet to make a name for himself, he is already a key player as Heaps continues to be the leader for Kansas. The quarterback-wide receiver doubled so that lot of potential this season in the spring game.
ing their teammates every Saturday and learning as much as they could before stepping into their shoes.
"It's a lot of fun to see him go out there and perform and play as well as he did," Heaps said. "Now we're going to expect that from him every single day."
Weis opted out of coaching in the spring game and scouted the team from the press box. He liked what he saw in the duo.

Bed Bath & Beyond provides a useful website for online shopping. They provide shopping guides that include how to choose a product, use and care of a product, and common questions. This store carries a lot of practical items for the home, but some more unpractical ones as well, like the "As Seen on TV" section, so it is important to narrow the search. One thing that can add some personality to a space is a rug. It adds some color besides the standard apartment carpet. Bed Bath & Beyond sells a variety of rugs and some at a good price, but it takes some searching. They have animal print rugs, patterned or solid, or ones that serve indoor and outdoor functions.
Michael's is an arts and crafts store that is good for inspiration. It offers classes to aid in projects and online tutorial videos. This store is good for creating decorative pieces such as a centerpiece for the kitchen table or a wreath for
the front door to welcome visitors. A good thing about Michael's is that they usually offer a sale. If a certain item isn't on sale, it is always easy to find 20 percent off coupons. It is an option for working within a budget while still allowing creativity.
World Market is good for decorative inspiration providing a link to its Pinterest page for even more visuals. When shopping at World Market, selectivity is the key for staying within a budget. Most items are pricey, such as patio furniture, so it takes a bit of searching to find deals. One score from World Market is the stationary products. Adding accents to a desk brightens up a study space and makes it more inviting, which can help with motivation.

BOSTON — Two bombs exploded in the crowded streets near the finish line of the Boston Marathon on Monday, killing three people and injuring more than 130 in a bloody scene of shattered glass and severed limbs that raised alarms that terrorists might have struck again in the U.S.
A White House official speaking on condition of anonymity because the investigation was still unfolding said the attack was being treated as an act of terrorism.
ASSOCIATED PRESS
President Barack Obama vowed
The twin blasts took place about 10 seconds and about 100 yards apart, knocking spectators and at least one runner off their feet, shattering windows and sending dense plumes of smoke rising over the street and through the fluttering national flags lining the course.
At Massachusetts General Hospital, Alisidra Conn, chief of emergency services, said: "This is something I've never seen in my 25 years here ... this amount of carnage in the civilian population. This is what we expect from war."
that those responsible will "feel the full weight of justice"

out the bombings, and police said they had no suspects in custody. Authorities in Washington said there was no immediate claim of responsibility. The FBI took charge of the investigation.
Boston Police Commissioner
Edward Davis asked people to stay indoors or go back to their hotel rooms and avoid crowds as bomb squads methodically checked parcels and bags left along the race route. He said investigators didn't know whether the bombs were hidden in mailboxes or trash can, and that authorities had received "no specific intelligence that anything was going to happen" at the race.
"We still don't know who did this or why," Obama said at the White House, adding, "Make no mistake: We will get to the bottom of this."
With scant official information to guide them, members of Congress said there was little or no doubt it was an act of terrorism.
The attack may have been timed for maximum carnage: The four-hour mark is typically a crowded time near the finish line because of the slow-but-steady recreational runners completing the race and because of all the relatives and friends clustered around to cheer them on.
"We just don't know whether it's foreign or domestic," said Rep. Michael McCaul, R-Texas, chairman of the House Committee on Homeland Security.

ORGANIZATION CAN BE PRACTICAL AND FUN
HANNAH PIERANGELO
hpierangelo@kansan.com
"A place for everything and everything in its place" is the common mantra everyone has heard when it comes to organizing. However, being organized is a lifestyle and a habit that takes time and effort to form. It may seem overwhelming to look at a mess and organize it, so it is best to start with one small area, keep it organized and branch out slowly. Once a habit has formed, being organized is a breeze and your new home will certainly look it. It's easiest to start an organization system before bad habits have time to manifest, so here are a few simple tips to get started and stay organized in a new place.
Obviously, the goal of organization is functionality. Every room in the house or apartment has a specific daily use, and staying organized is essential to a simple lifestyle. The best tip is simply to store things where you use them. Keeping regularly used items in reach and in sight is one of the best ways to be functional. Storing something useful away or in an inconvenient location will become more of a hassle than keeping it on hand.
One tip that is particularly effective is stacking. Stacking things on a shelf can almost be considered an art. For an open display such as bookshelves, materials can be stacked in a way that is casual, functional and appealing. Try combining different items in an area on a shelf like horizontally stacked books topped with a decorative ceramic or a vase of fake flowers.
Small bowls can act as storage containers and double as bookends, too. The combination of textures keeps the display stylish while maintaining effective storage space.
Drawers can be the most difficult things to declutter sometimes. It is common for the random scraps of paper, half-used rolls of tape, broken pens and other small miscellaneous items to end up crammed in a drawer. Even worse, there is probably a drawer like this in every room. However, there is an easy fix. Compartmentalizing drawers will keep small things in their place and easy to find. The first step to organizing a drawer is getting rid of the unneeded clutter. After that it is easier than you think. Acquire some colorful bins or glue pieces of cardboard together to create a custom drawer organizer to keep all the little things in life organized.
Upcycling is a new trend for repurposing old possessions and giving them new life. One clever way of upcycling is using old shoeboxes and cardboard copy paper bins as simple storage. By dressing them up with a fast and easy coat of spray paint or decorative paper, cardboard becomes the perfect way to organize a closet or a drawer without looking haphazard. As a bonus, the cardboard you use is immediately recycled instead of ending up in the trashcan.

but also retains functionality as everyday materials are easily in reach. It is nice to have everything where you can see, but it also doubles as a reminder to put things back. It becomes obvious when something is missing. In pantries and bathrooms, clear and visible containers means you can figure when it is time to restock as well. Narrow shelving provides easy, visible storage in pantries, closets, bedrooms and bathrooms. In a pantry, try using clear containers or jars for raw ingredients. Save space in the bathroom by displaying bottles, jars and cosmetics on a shelf for ease of use. One tip for girls: store makeup brushes upright in clear bins with beads to dress up the display. In general, this tip works with pens and pencils, scissors and cooking utensils as well.
In any living situation, space is almost always an issue. In order to keep counters clear, bookshelves classy and closets clean, try using the walls. Wall shelving is the first thing that may come to mind, but calendars, tack boards, hooks and cubbies are great for increasing storage on the wall.
Closets tend to be another region of clutter and chaos. To keep your closet from being the household black hole, use bins. Bins are good for floor storage, which provide a solid surface for folded clothes or shoes, as well as overhead storage on upper shelving. Keeping out-of-use items out of the way is important. What is not in regular use should be packed away. Winter
Edited by Tyler Conover
clothing, spare dishes and the shoes you only wear on nice occasions can all be stored in bins under beds and in closets. Organizing by season is another good way to clear out some clothes and shoes that are not in immediate use and can easily be stored away in bins. One should also keep in mind stacked shelving. Short, stacked shelves are great for storing small bins, which can store socks or tank tops, as well as shoes and folded clothing.
TARA BRYANT/KANSAN
For some, organizing comes easy. But for others, it is difficult to keep things in their place and combined with similar items. Here, color-coding is a valuable tip. Anything can be color-coded, from the calendar to the closet. Homework, mail, bills and manuals are especially good for filing by color. Organizing things with color is great for visual thinkers, and also allows an excuse to colorize your life in another way. Papers do not have to stay white and boring if you file with color.
An organized area does not have to be dull. In fact, creativity is encouraged when organizing a space because you have the opportunity to make the space your own. Organization is a convergence of both style and functionality that you interact with on a daily basis, and it should always reflect you. Make your home your own with the style and decor you love.

PACKING
FOUR STEPS TO MAKING YOUR MOVE EASIER
LAKEN RAPIER
rapier@kansan.com
irapier@kansan.com
Summer is quickly approaching and before you know it will be time to move out of your dorm room or apartment. Don't make the mistake of waiting to the last hour to start packing. Getting a head start on packing affords you the opportunity to get organized and can make unpacking easier.
This is the perfect time to go through all of your belongings and evaluate their usefulness. Here is a hint — if you didn't use it at your current residence, you probably won't use it at your next. Trash it.
STEP ONE: PURGE
STEP TWO: PRIORITIZE
When you start packing, there are plenty of items you can box up that you will not miss. Items such as picture frames, books, movies, memorabilia and other knickknacks are perfect examples of things you can pack first. Set a daily goal for a number of boxes you would like to pack. Make sure to keep boxes light enough to move.
STEP THREE: LABEL
The key to staying organized is as simple as picking up a marker. Mark each box indicating the contents and where the box belongs in your new space. To take your organization to the next level, create a color-coding system. Assign each space a color and label the boxes that belong to that space with the appropriate color.

I know, it was just a spring rooftop game. Neither Heaps nor McCay have proven themselves.
Junior quarterback Jake Heaps passes the ball during the second half of the Spring Game Saturday afternoon. Kansas' 2013 season will begin on Sept. 7 against South Dakota.
But why not make the comparison?
The past three years have been a disaster for the Kansas quarterback-receiver duos. Last year, it was Crist and Kale Pick, and no wide receiver caught a touchdown. The year before that was Jordan Webb and Pick, which resulted in two touchdowns. In 2010, the duo was Webb and Daymond Patterson.
The big-time combination has been drastically missing since Reesing and Briscoe, but that might soon change.
TRAVIS YOUNG/KANSAN
Heaps doesn't have the mobility like Reeing, but he certainly has the arm. McCay is lacking in speed, but he has a similar frame and athleticism as Briscoe.
Look, it's a long stretch, but the possibility is there and has time to develop with both being juniors.
We'll just have to wait and see it develop in the fall.

Kansas coach Charlie Weis said there were a couple of plays that Heaps could have executed better, but for the most part, the BYU transfer lived up to Weis' expectations.
win over the White team. Local media voted Heaps co-offensive MVP for the game.
"You've got to be encouraged when you watch him play." Weis said. "Strong arm, accurate, and knows how to read coverages."
Heaps' biggest target in Saturday's spring game was junior wide receiver Justin McCay, who shared the offensive MVP title with Heaps. McCay's eightceptions helped produce 99 yards and a touchdown for the Blue sound.
Heaps and McCay spent a lot of time this offseason working together and carried it over to Saturday for fans to see. McCay sat out last year, but will be an essential part of the lajwhawks' offense in 2013.
"What we need is a dynamic football player to go down and stretch the defense and make plays down field," Heaps said. "With him
Although McCay has yet to make a name for himself, he is already a key player as Heaps continues to be the leader for Kansas. The quarterback-wide receiver duo showed a lot of potential for this season in the spring game.
McCay played in three games as a redshirt freshman at the University of Oklahoma in 2011, including one against Kansas. As a Sooner, McCay did not accumulate any statistics and still awaits his first catch in a college football game.
ing their teammates every Saturday and learning as much as they could before stepping into their shoes.
"I'ta a lot of fun to see him go out there and perform and play as well as he did," Heaps said. "Now we're going to expect that from him every single day."
Weis opted out of coaching in the spring game and scouted the team from the press box. He liked what he saw in the duo.
"I think one of the reasons why Jake had a big day is because Justin
Like Heaps, he sees the new opportunity to go from being a quiet football player to being a big

Weis said. "One of the reasons Justin had a big day is because Jake knows where to throw and where he's going to be."
McCay said after the game that Heaps "amazes" him in practices as the two have built a lot of chemistry and camaraderie this year.

On Monday, the players will visit doctors and trainers to check up on injuries. Later in the week, the players will watch the spring game and receive offseason evaluations from the coaching staff. The players will have meetings with their
position coaches on Wednesday and Thursday.
The players will soon begin summer conditioning. The team will report for fall camp in August to prepare for its season opener at home against the University of South Dakota on Sept. 7.

ASSOCIATED PRESS
BOSTON — Two bombs exploded in the crowded streets near the finish line of the Boston Marathon on Monday, killing three people and injuring more than 130 in a bloody scene of shattered glass and severed limbs that raised alarms that terrorists might have struck again in the U.S.
A White House official speaking on condition of anonymity because the investigation was still unfolding said the attack was being treated as an act of terrorism.
President Barack Obama vowed
The twin blasts took place about 10 seconds and about 100 yards apart, knocking spectators and at least one runner off their feet, shattering windows and sending dense plumes of smoke rising over the street and through the fluttering national flags lining the course.
Some 23,000 runners took part in the race, one of the world's oldest and most prestigious marathons.
A senior U.S. intelligence official said two other bombs were found near the end of the 26.2-mile course in what appeared to be a well-coordinated attack.

out the bombings, and police sau they had no suspects in custody. Authorities in Washington said there was no immediate claim of responsibility. The FBI took charge of the investigation.
Edward Davis asked people to stay indoors or go back to their hotel rooms and avoid crowds as bomb squads methodically checked parcels and bags left along the race route. He said investigators didn't know whether the bombs were hidden in mailboxes or trash can, and that authorities had received "no specific intelligence that anything was going to happen" at the race.
"We still don't know who did this or why." Obama said at the White House, adding, "Make no mistake: We will get to the bottom of this."
With scant official information to guide them, members of Congress said there was little or no doubt it was an act of terrorism.
"We just don't know whether it's foreign or domestic," said Rep. Michael McCaul, R-Texas, chairman of the House Committee on Homeland Security.

The attack may have been timed for maximum carnage: The four-hour mark is typically a crowded time near the finish line because of the slow-but-steady recreational runners completing the race and because of all the relatives and friends clustered around to cheer them on.

Reesing a
Food it is an essential for everyone. Students living in residence halls often eat differently than students who live off campus.
Students living in residence halls have limited appliances. Typical meals might be from a dining hall, eating out at restaurants or preparing dorm-room meals like Kraft Easy Mac, Ramen Noodles, or snack foods.
Sara Gentry, a sophomore from Shawnee, lived in a residence hall last year, and found herself spending money at restaurants because of the lack of appliances to make her own meals.
"When I lived in the dorms, I ate out a lot," Gentry said. "Mrs. E's was hard to eat at for every meal and only having a mini fridge and a microwave in the dorms made it hard to keep food on hand to actually cook and eat."
Danielle St. Amand, a junior from St. Louis, had more obstacles to deal with than just a lack of appliances, but she bought what she could keep in her mini-fridge and ate at dining halls.
"I didn't eat out too much because I didn't have a car to drive around anywhere." St. Amand said. "Most of my meals came from The Underground, Mrs. E's and the Studio because I could use my Beak 'em Buckes there."
Since there are many difficulties that go into cooking in residence halls, some students invest in snack foods. Gentry and St. Amand are among those students, as they both buy granola
bars, yogurt, cheeses, milk and microwavable foods.
Once students live in apartments or houses, they have the opportunity to cook better meals and buy different foods.
"I live with my sister and sometimes she'll cook dinner or I will. We usually cook every night, unless we have a night class or work, then I just eat the leftovers from what she made." Gentry said. "We usually just keep it small, with the main dinner and one side dish."
St. Amand found that living on her own also stops her from eating out.
"I cook for myself every day." St. Amand said.
"I like to make a lot of tortillas and pasta. Those are my two main meals that I make daily"
Students typically enjoy having the ability to make/customize and buy whatever they want, rather than limited foods from dining halls.
"You can buy bigger packages and not all the mini-microwavable food," Geentry said. "You get to choose what you want to eat and you can either spend a lot of time cooking dinner and making it delicious, or you can just throw something together really quick when you're in a hurry. There's a lot more freedom and you don't have to feel guilty when you don't use all of your expensive meal plans."

Three killed, dozens injured in twin blasts

ASSOCIATED PRESS
BOSTON — Two bombs exploded in the crowded streets near the finish line of the Boston Marathon on Monday, killing three people and injuring more than 130 in a bloody scene of shattered glass and severed limbs that raised alarms that terrorists might have struck again in the U.S.
A White House official speaking on condition of anonymity because the investigation was still unfolding said the attack was being treated as an act of terrorism.
President Barack Obama vowed
The twin blasts took place about 10 seconds and about 100 yards apart, knocking spectators and at least one runner off their feet, shattering windows and sending dense plumes of smoke rising over the street and through the fluttering national flags lining the course.
A senior U.S. intelligence official said two other bombs were found near the end of the 26.2-mile course in what appeared to be a well-coordinated attack.
that those responsible will "feel the full weight of justice"
Authorities shed no light on a motive or who may have carried
out the bombings, and police said they had no suspects in custody. Authorities in Washington said there was no immediate claim of responsibility. The FBI took charge of the investigation.
Some 23,000 runners took part in the race, one of the world's oldest and most prestigious marathons.
Boston Police Commissioner
At Massachusetts General Hospital, Alisdair Dconn, chief of emergency services, said: "This is something I've never seen in my 25 years here ... this amount of carnage in the civilian population. This is what we expect from war."
Edward Davis asked people to stay indoors or go back to their hotel rooms and avoid crowds as bomb squads methodically checked parcels and bags left along the race route. He said investigators didn't know whether the bombs were hidden in mailboxes or trash can, and that authorities had received "no specific intelligence that anything was going to happen" at the race.
"We still don't know who did this or why." Obama said at the White House, adding, "Make no mistake: We will get to the bottom of this."

The attack may have been timed for maximum carnage: The four-hour mark is typically a crowded time near the finish line because of the slow-but-steady recreational runners completing the race and because of all the relatives and friends clustered around to cheer them on.

I know.
While some students get their apartment designing ideas from Pinterest, these four women take decorating a bit farther.
Sophomore Jamie Wilt lives at the Legends Place Apartments with three other women. The apartment was furnished when they rented it, though they bought chairs and a bookshelf. They did not paint the apartment.
"The majority of stuff in the main room my mom bought us," Wilt said. "She is a crafter and made a lot of stuff."
The women began with a KU theme and followed through with it.
The four girls previously lived on campus together, so their apartment is decorated with a lot of pictures, along with previous items.
"We have a lot of University of Kansas related and basketball decorations," Wilt said. "Our living area is red and blue with lots of pictures."
"Compared to everyone else, we didn't do a lot of decorating," Wilt said. "It all came together."
Senior Emily Boreso lives in a townhouse with one other girl.
"it's pretty fun," Boreses said. "In the beginning we tried to make it cute."
Boresow found a large shower curtain to hang over a wall in their living room to decorate and make their townhouse unique.
"Be creative, think outside the box," Boresow
advised. "Ask your family and friends for decorative items. I went to my mom's basement and got things that she didn't use."
Both senior Korbi Sigler and her roommate used to be design majors, so their apartment is very fun and different.
In Sigler's living room and kitchen, there are picture frames on the walls filled with smaller pictures. The picture frames are Sigler's favorite part of the apartment.
"We combined what we had," Sigler said. "We find unique pieces and bring them back and mix what we have with what we find."
"It's the idea of different picture frames that go together. Each can stand on their own and together as a piece of art," Sigler said.
"Another one of my favorite things about our apartment are the pillows on the couches." Sigler said. "No two are the same because we pick a new one up every couple of months, but they all go together. We love how they can mix and match and add pizzazz to the room."
Since Sigler and her roommate both have backgrounds in design, they have embraced the challenge of decorating.
Sigler recommends not buying already made things for apartments, but looking for cheaper and more unique items.
"Think about how you can change it and put yourself in it," Sigler said.

The past three years have seen a saster for the Kansas quarterback-receiver duos. Last year, it was Crist and Kale Pick, and no wide receiver caught a touchdown. The year before that was Jordan Webb and Pick, which resulted in two touchdowns. In 2010, the duo was Webb and Daymond Patterson.

THE BUTTERFLY EFFECT
Program encourages people to create butterfly habitats to aid in migration
KATIE MCBRIDE
kmcbride@kansan.com
The migration of monarch butterflies is a curious mystery of nature and leaves many wondering how the monarchs know where to go or what to do.
In recent years, the depletion of many monarch habitats has led to concern about their thinning migrations. This spring marks the beginning of the monarchs' migration back to the United States.
Monarch Watch is a program that promotes the creation of new monarch butterfly habitats as well as the creation of new ones. The
program began in
program began in 1992 as an educational outreach program that engages researchers, students, volunteers and teachers. Orley "Chip" Taylor, professor of ecology and evolutionary biology at the University, has been the director of Monarch Watch for 16 years.
"Migration is one of our great mysteries; it's one of the things that we haven't solved," Taylor said. "As scientists, this is a puzzle, and as private citizens, it's a marvel. We want to see this migration continue because it's really one of the most magnificent biological phenomenon."
An area of concern for these populations is that development, the use of herbicides and other human factors has diminished habitats that the butterflies rely on during their migrations.
"We've got a lot of problems in the United States," Taylor said. "We're developing this country at a very rapid pace and paying very little attention to wildlife. We are losing something like 2.2 million acres a year of habitat in this country due to development."
If efforts are not supported to protect and create habitats, the monarch population will decline to extremely low levels. One important factor in the monarch's survival is the milkweed plant. Without it, the butterflies are unable to reproduce. In addition, without nectar from flowers, the butterflies cannot make the migration to Mexico for the winter.
"One of the things we've tried to do is to initiate a program that encourages people to
create more monarch habitats," Taylor said. "Almost everybody, if they own some property and have a garden, can incorporate a few milkweed plants into their garden."
Taylor hopes that Monarch Watch can encourage people to take small steps to help monarchs, such as creating a simple butterfly garden that includes milkweed.
"Over the years, fewer and fewer students seem to be connected with the outdoors," Taylor said. "We have to appreciate the fact that there are more than human beings on this planet. All of this life around us sustains us, and is important for how we function."

The state plans to build a large highway through the Wakarusa Wetlands connecting I-70 to Kansas Highway 10. The University owns 20 of the wetland's 640 acres.
STUDENTS MARCH FOR WAKARUSA WETLANDS
Gus Bova, a junior from Lawrence, is part of the movement to put pressure on the University to take responsibility for the 20 acres it owns. Bova said in an email that if the University either refuses to allow construction on its 20 acres or returns the land to Haskell, he believes the current plans for construction can't go forward.
Haskell originally had the rights to the wetlands, but after a time known as Indian Termination in the 1950s and 1960s, the rights to the land were given to the University along with the Kansas Department of Wildlife, Parks, and Tourism and Baker University.
University students, Haskell University students and Lawrence community members marched down Jayhawk Boulevard yesterday to raise awareness about the Wakarusa Wetlands.
The University owns 20 of the 640 acres of the wetlands, Kansas Department of Transportation (KDOT) plans to build the South Lawrence Trafficway directly through the wetlands, including the University's portion.
Bova said that this was a solidarity march between the University and Haskell, indigenous and non-indigenous people and the wetlands themselves.
"It is in the best interest of all to start taking our role as environmental stewards seriously by both building cross-cultural solidarity and by collectively standing up for the rights of the plants and animals we share this planet with." Bova said in an email.
About 50 people marched down Jayhawk Boulevard, played music and passed out flyers on Wescoe Beach in the hopes of raising awareness about the wetlands issue and causing students to look into the issue themselves. Bova said.
NATIONAL
There will be a panel discussion on the future of the wetlands at the Ecumenical Campus Ministries tomorrow at noon. Haskell will host a Teach-in Friday at 5 p.m. in Sequoyah Hall to catch people up on the various issues surrounding the wetlands. The Wetlands Preservation Organization meets every Wednesday at 5 p.m. at Tommany Hall on the Haskell campus.

A White House official speaking on condition of anonymity because the investigation was still unfolding said the attack was being treated as an act of terrorism.
President Barack Obama vowed
The twin blasts took place about 10 seconds and about 100 yards apart, knocking spectators and at least one runner off their feet, shattering windows and sending dense plumes of smoke rising over the street and through the fluttering national flags lining the course.
that those responsible will "feel the full weight of justice."
A senior U.S. intelligence official said two other bombs were found near the end of the 26.2-mile course in what appeared to be a well-coordinated attack.
Authorities shed no light on a motive or who may have carried
out the bombings, and police said they had no suspects in custody. Authorities in Washington said there was no immediate claim of responsibility. The FBI took charge of the investigation.
At Massachusetts General Hospital, Alisda Dair Conn, chief of emergency services, said: "This is something I've never seen in my 25 years here ... this amount of carnage in the civilian population. This is what we expect from war."
Some 23,000 runners took part in the race, one of the world's oldest and most prestigious marathons.
Boston Police Commissioner
Edward Davis asked people to stay indoors or go back to their hotel rooms and avoid crowds as bomb squads methodically checked parcels and bags left along the race route. He said investigators didn't know whether the bombs were hidden in mailboxes or trash can, and that authorities had received "no specific intelligence that anything was going to happen" at the race.
"We still don't know who did this or why," Obama said at the White House, adding, "Make no mistake: We will get to the bottom of this."
With scant official informa
tion to guide them, members of Congress said there was little or no doubt it was an act of terrorism.
"We just don't know whether it's foreign or domestic," said Rep. Michael McCaul, R-Texas, chairman of the House Committee on Homeland Security.
Index
The attack may have been timed for maximum carnage: The four-hour mark is typically a crowded time near the finish line because of the slow-but-steady recreational runners completing the race and because of all the relatives and friends clustered around to cheer them on.

3. DRESS FOR SUCCESS
10 simple steps to rocking your summer internship
MARSHALL SCHMIDT
mschmidt@kansan.com
1. IT'S NOT TOO LATE TO APPLY
With the end of the school year around the corner, both employers and students are preparing for summer internships. Whether majoring in business, journalism, graphic design or engineering, there are opportunities for any student, said Erin Wolfram, assistant director of career networks at the University Career Center. Here are 10 tips students should know before diving into their internships.
Although the prime time to apply for an internship is January through mid-April, companies are still hiring, Wolfram said. Students can cold call companies or find postings on the KU Career Connection website. Even locally, Debbie Snyder, senior human resource consultant at newspaper publisher The World Company, said the Lawrence Journal-World is still hiring for a couple intends for its news department.
2. NAIL THE INTERVIEW
During an interview, Wolfram said students should use past experiences to explain their skills and abilities for the job. Additionally, she said, researching the background of the company shows your level of interest in a potential employer.
Regardless of whether you're offered a position, Wolfram said, always send a personal thank-you note or email after an interview.
"Let your employer know why you're interested in an opportunity in their organization." Wolfram said.
maintain an appropriate appearance that is business-like, neat and clean and as determined by the requirements of the area in which the employee works." Snyder said.
4. DON'T BE AFRAID TO MOVE
While many internships are available in the Lawrence or Kansas City areas, others may require temporarily relocating.
After accepting an offer to work as a hardware engineering intern for Microsoft, Joseph Sandt, a senior from Kansas City. Mo., realized he would have to move to Seattle for the summer. In Sandt's case, the company has arranged his housing near the office.
"The only Microsoft campus doing hardware engineering is in Seattle," Sandt said. "For the job I'm doing, moving to headquarters is necessary."
5. ACT PROFESSIONALLY
Besides dressing as a professional, students should also remember to act the part.
"You only get one chance to make a good impression," Snyder said. "Attitude speaks loud and clear, so come in with a positive attitude."
As for knowing how to refer to your boss, Snyder said many managers will introduce themselves by their preferred name.
The days of interns doing menial tasks such as filing paperwork or getting coffee for their superiors are over, said David Byrd-Stadler, director of employer relations & MBA career services at the University's School of Business.
"Many companies will hire interns to work on special projects or to perform the same or similar duties as regular employees," Snyder said.
"I recommend asking your boss how they would prefer to be addressed, if still unclear," Snyder said.
6. BE PREPARED TO DO REAL
WORK
"Interns can provide a fresh perspective, new ideas and technology to the company." Snyder said. "Interns and employees both have an opportunity to share information and learn from one another."
8. TREAT THE INTERNSHIP LIKE A THREE-MONTH INTERVIEW
7. DON'T BE AFRAID TO SPEAK
UP
Despite internships being temporary positions, Byrd-Stadler said many companies are looking for future full-time employees.
"Internships have become this real-world experience for students and an eight-to-12-week interview for the company." Byrd-Stadler said.
Even though students may be interns, their ideas are still valued.
"In a lot of places, a college degree is essential, but there's no specific major they need," Byrd-Statler said.
While Byrd-Stadler recommends applying for internships consistent with a students' degree, he also suggests applying anywhere a student interested in working.
9. WORK AT A PLACE YOU LIKE
10. LEARN WHAT YOU DON'T WANT TO DO
Kylie Sheehy, a senior from Detroit, learned a lot from her mechanical engineering internship at MarkWest Energy in Tulsa, Okla., last summer. She realized she wanted a job where she could use her communication skills
"I found doing standard engineering work draining," Sheehy said. "Because of the experience, I decided I wanted to go into engineering sales."
Brownback fights for school funding
— which was not a part of her experience — especially now that she is preparing to graduate and search for a full-time position.
Edited by Taylor Lewis
TOPEKA, Kan. — Gov Sam Brownback will visit leaders and students at public universities and colleges around Kansas to discuss his support for higher education funding.
STATE
The Republican governor says in a
release Monday that protecting higher education funding must be a priority as the state makes spending decisions for the next two budget years.
Brownback's tentative schedule begins with stops April 22 at Wichita State University and Butler Community College and concludes May 6 at Kansas State University.
Kansas legislators are still working on the state budget for the fiscal year that starts July 1. They return May 8 from a break that began April 5.
Brownback says all state agencies must find efficiencies but believes higher education spending must remain level.

Through slam poetry, group aims to spark social change
KU Students for Justice in the Middle East (KU SJME) held their first "Justice Café," an evening filled with social commentary by students and performers, Monday evening in the Woodruff Auditorium of the Kansas Union.
"Justice Cafe is an event night of spoken word and slam poetry," said Salman Husain, a sophomore from Wichita and the event coordinator for KU JSIME. "The main focus is about social justice and solidarity. We had a lineup of student performers from different backgrounds to talk about their life experiences."
Stanisha "Nisha" Lott, known by her stage name, Nisha Star, used freestyle to convey her emotions in her performance.
Mugabi Byenkya, a junior,
started off his poem with a shrill scream to emphasize the emotions and struggles of what living in fear of oppression is like.
"Swallow your pride and digest this knowledge; higher education isn't just college. Stop saying you come from nothing because you
come from something," Lott said.
The featured artist was renowned spoken-word poet Remi Kanazi, a Palestinian-American based in New York City who spoke about oppression in his performance.
KU SIME is a new organization on campus. Its goal is to emphasize the perspectives of social justice not only in the Middle East, but across the world.
"There are problems that are universal to all humans across every border," Husain said. "We want to build coalitions and represent all different walks of life."
Over the last three weeks, KU SIME has been promoting the event. The group partnered with the Black Student Union, the Hispanic American Leadership Organization and other student coalitions focused on social issues.
Husain hopes that the event will be even bigger next year and that students who attend will be individually inspired to make changes in their lives that affect the society around them.

LOS ANGELES — Police in Los Angeles, New York City, London, Washington and other cities worldwide stepped up security Monday following explosions at the Boston Marathon.
In Los Angeles, the Sheriff's Department activated its emergency operations center and increased patrols at transit hubs, schools and county buildings, while in New York, critical response teams were deployed citywide and officials stepped up security at hotels and other prominent locations.
California emergency management officials activated their statewide threat assessment system, which was established after the Sept. 11, 2001, World Trade Center attacks. And officials in multiple cities and counties throughout the state were reviewing information from federal authorities for possible threats.

At the White House, the Secret Service quickly expanded its security perimeter, shutting down Pennsylvania Avenue and cordoning off the area with yellow police tape. Several Secret Service patrol cars blocked off entry points to the road, though the White House was not on lockdown and tourists and other onlookers were still allowed in the park across the street.
Agencies were also stepping up their social media response, telling the public via Twitter and Facebook to report suspicious activity to the police.
In Colorado, a statewide alert was sent out advising law enforcement agencies to look out for suspicious activities.
Police at three major Los Angeles area airports, including Los Angeles International, were in a "heightened state of vigilance," with increased patrols, said Chief of Airport Police Patrick Gannon.
"We have no indications that suggest there's a nexus from Boston
to the Los Angeles airport, but in an overabundance of caution, we have heightened our patrols," Gannon said.

CHICAGO — Far-flung family members, co-workers and friends frantically used social media, cellphones and even a "people finder" website Monday to try to learn the fate of participants and spectators at the Boston Marathon, where two people were killed and dozens injured after a pair of bombs exploded near the finish line of one of the world's great races.
Jeske of Bismarck, N.D., had finished about 15 minutes before the explosions and was getting food about two blocks away when she heard two loud booms. She immediately tried to call her parents, but could not place the call. A friend was able to post on Facebook that they were OK, but reaching her parents was another worry.

"I wasn't able to call and I felt so bad," Jeske said. "When I was finally able to reach them, my mom said she was just absolutely beside herself with fear."
Tim Apuzzo of Seattle said he spent an agonizing 10 minutes frantically trying to call his girl
Finally, she was able to call him to say she was safe.
Google stepped in to help family and friends find their loved ones, setting up a site called Google Person Finder that allows users to enter information about someone who was there. A few hours after the explosion, the site indicated it was tracking 3,600 records.

Weight issues not solved by phrasing
You've probably heard the phrase "real woman have curves." Maybe you saw it on Pinterest. Maybe it was a post on Facebook. Maybe it was part of an ad campaign in an attempt towards progressiveness to combat the systematic culture that trains women to hate their bodies. Maybe you thought this was a super rad pairing of vowels and consonants in the English language. Maybe you thought this particular bit of syntax was empowering, a message that should be broadcasted to all women.
Body politics are a messy, complex business. And the problem is, "real women have curves" is not a healthy message to encourage as a replacement to the messaging of, "thin in." is
Now please don't misunderstand me—when I use "healthy," my choice in vocabulary is not foreshadowing me attempting to argue that thin is physically healthier, or that thin equates to
fitness or that having curves is somehow unhealthy. That'd be whack. You can be incredibly thin and physically unhealthy, and overweight and in the best of health. Weight as a means to measure health is a myth that has been used to promote a violent culture of body-shaming in western society. When I use "healthy," I mean healthy in the sense of mental health, in rhetorical health—healthy, as in something that supports all women. And "real women have curves" does not support all women.
By Katherine Gwynn
kgwynn@kansan.com
I understand why this has come out as a counter-message in our society to the way women's bodies are portrayed in the media. Women's bodies are literally cut down through Photoshop, are altered and abused in ways that make only a single type of body seem like a desirable body. Despite the average size of a woman in the U.S. being a size 14, the body we most commonly see in magazines or
on the screen is a size 0. A hell of a lot of women are not — and will never be — a size 0 and will not and cannot make their bodies look like the one we are most told often is the most sought after. That's not from laziness, or unhealthy habits. That's largely because trying to become a size 0 (or a size 2, 4, 6, etc.) is really not natural for many people, and usually not even truly desired. If you're healthy, and you think you look hot, boom. You're good to go, and nobody else's opinion matters. Having "curves" is completely natural for a woman.
The thing is, so is not having curves.
res, our society pressures women to go to unhealthy measures in order to achieve a "thin" body, and we need to get that pressure to back the hell off women's bodies, stat. But there also happen to be many women who have naturally thin bodies. Women who aren't starving themselves, women who are not forcing their bodies to go to unnatural states that harm them, women who are thin and healthy. Women with straight-as-a-board waists, women with knobby knees, women with flat chests. Real women who don't have curves. And not having curves doesn't somehow make them "fake" women, as the rhetorical meaning behind "real women have curves" implies.
Yall, all bodies are valid. You can have curves, no curves, white skin, dark skin, physical disabilitiies, piercings, acne, a penis, a vagina—whatever physical traits or identities your body is comprised of, it's a "real" body
that deserves mad real respect. Trying to broadcast "real women have curves" only continues the same methodology of attempting to control or shame women's bodies. It's just with different language substituted in. Nobody deserves to feel that their body isn't real, and instead of saying "real women have curves," we should be saying "real women have whatever freaking body they want." To do otherwise is dehumanizing, whether intentional or not.
So think twice before you repost that e-card, or that picture of Marilyn Monroe, emblazoned with words like, "real women have curves." Because all you have to do be a "real" woman is identify as a woman.

PUBLIC SAFETY
Gun debate grows to affect college students across US
Texas Rep. Steve Stockmar announced his newest campaign slogan last Friday. Doubtlessly hoping to capitalize on his base's sure support for two perennial issues, the representative tweeted. "If babies had guns, they wouldn't be aborted."
By Amanda Gress
Stockton's Twitter account describes him as "the most conservative Congressman in Texas," an impressive feat. Practical considerations aside, his view represents one end of a very wide and very divided spectrum of opinions regarding who should be able to possess and carry which types of gun. The debate is gaining prominence; this year, Reuters reports roughly 1,500 new gun laws have been proposed at the state level, and about 50 of those proposals have become law. Rather than signaling consensus, the push for legislation showcases the divisiveness of the issue - the split between laws aiming to protect the ability of individuals to own and carry guns and restrictions gun ownership is roughly 50-50.
By Amanda Gress agress@kansan.com
One might expect college students to be at the forefront of
Debates about the fundamental safety of citizens will invariably become emotionally charged, especially when people around the country can watch violent incidents unfold in real time on televised news and the Internet. That level of intensity can override more methodological approaches to the issue - after all, an image of President Obama delivering an address surrounded by the mothers of victims of gun violence likely will garner more attention than a dry report comparing the miniatue of various policy proposals. Individuals following the debate likely also feel strongly about the issue, either because they or someone they know has been personally affected by gun violence or because they fervently believe they should be allowed to own a gun.
this discussion, given the prominence of school shootings in the narrative of gun violence in the United States. As in the broader national argument, students can approach the question, "What circumstances would maximize my safety at my university?" and arrive at drastically different answers. Last week, the national pro-gun group Students for Concealed Carry sponsored the "Empty Holster Protest" to urge universities to allow students to carry guns on campus. Meanwhile, the American Association of Universities and 350 presidents of colleges and universities came to the opposite conclusion, announcing opposition to expanded gun rights on college campuses and favoring regulations on gun control.
How do students feel about guns on campus? One survey of 4,000 high school and college students conducted last fall by professors at American University and the Loyola Marymount University found 40 percent of respondents planned to own a gun once they owned their own home, while another 20 percent were considering gun ownership. A different study at two public universities in Texas and Washington reported that students felt relatively uncomfortable with increasing concealed carry on their campuses, even when they believed it might be a good policy for their wider community. Data from Chadron State College in Nebraska and California State University-Chico in 2008 and 2009 suggested 70 percent of students and faculty rejected the idea of concealed
carry and did not believe that it would enhance their feelings of security on campus.
The University of Kansas is obviously situated within a wider political context. This February and March set new records in the state of Kansas for number of applications for concealed carry permits (the state has 53,272 active licensees total). Last week, the Kansas legislature passed two bills allowing individuals to carry firearms in buildings lacking strict security and making it illegal for federal agents to confiscate restricted guns, ammunition, and accessories made and used solely within Kansas.
Students trying to sort out a highly technical, emotional debate must first recognize that, despite today's inflammatory rhetoric, the questions of gun ownership in the United States are not questions of absolutes.
Yes, our society will likely contain individuals who passionately believe their guns are an important part of their lives for a very long time.
Yes, there will always be other individuals who will find ways to circumvent whatever safety measures are put into place.
Yes, trying to sort out the differences between types of firearms and types of gun control and potential effectiveness of gun control and potential effectiveness of gun ownership in self-defense is incredibly complicated.
No, that does not mean that the best option is deregulating all gun ownership or confiscating all weapons in the United States. The gun debate will affect college students across the country regardless of whether they feel strongly about gun ownership; those students would do well to first become familiar with the facts behind the impassioned arguments.

I've never understood why people don't enjoy poring over my planer as much as I do. Why does no one sympathize with the fact that my daily schedule reads class-work-class-interview-work-meeting-work? Usually, I have a hard time finding 30 minutes to do things like shower or find sustenance.
But then I realized that lots of people have days like these. For some people, it's every day.
Luckily for me, I have my own method of coping with a hectic schedule, and it's worked for me since high school. It's called: "the personal morning."
To the untrained eye, a personal morning will look like taking several hours to do whatever the hell you want. I can assure you, however, that there is a systematic approach to this form of leisure, and- lucky you! - I am going to share it with you right now.
First, sleep in. Not terribly late,
but give yourself however much it takes to get to that 8-10 hours.
If you're like me, it's more than you can count on one hand.
Make sure this is good sleep.
I'm talking the "make your bed the night before/turn on a white noise machine/block out all sun-light" kind.
The personal morning isn't all about sleep, though. No, simply sleeping your morning away leaves you groggy and slightly frantic once you wake up. Not the end goal we're looking for.
The second component of the personal morning is up for interpretation. The only instruction is to do whatever it is that puts you most at ease. Spend a couple hours acting as if you have nowhere else in the world to be — because, in fact, you don't! For me, this means splurging on decent coffee, painting my nails and watching however many episodes of "Mad Men" I'm behind on.
If you're anything like me, this might also be a good time to clean up your space – whatever that is. It's hard to fully relax in an environment that's not at least somewhat tidy. Being surrounded by mess makes it feel as if there's another chore to be

This leads me to my next point. A successful personal morning requires some prior planning. If you simply wake up and decide to skip all your classes, you're doing it wrong.
Even if you're one of those people who doesn't care about mess, just do it. I promise it's easier to relax without day-old food in the sink or dirty clothes doubling as carpet.
If you have a crazy hard test on Tuesday, then Wednesday morning will be your personal morning. If your schedule Thursday is jam-packed, Friday is for you. And, for the record, the day after finals should be a universally-accepted personal morning.
Find a sub for work, email your professor that you'll be "out of town," call off your morning workout with your buddy, do what you gotta do. A successful personal morning has to be guilt-free, and you can't do that if you're blowing off something to which you committed.
Herein lies the best part of the personal morning: You're relaxed, rejuvenated, rested. And it's only mid-afterno! People, I swear by this. There's nothing a massage or vacation can do that a well-placed personal day cannot.
I've never adopted the "work hard, play hard" motto. Instead I created my own: "work hard, treat yourself hard." Because I think everyone deserves a break sometimes.
And Mom, let me take this opportunity to formally thank you for all the times you called me in with a "migraine" in high school. This one's for you.

Flaming Lips' first studio album in four years described as 'dark, disturbing'
LYNDSEY HAVENS
name@kansan.com
Over the years, The Flaming Lips have created quite the reputation for not walking, but crossing the line with outrageously farfetched and somewhat controversial actions.
The Flaming Lips released their newest studio album since 2009 today. "The Terror" consists of nine tracks that frontman Wayne Coyne says are "dark and disturbed."
"Why would we make this music that is 'The Terror' — this bleak, disturbing record?" he said in a press release for the album. "I don't really want to know the answer that I think is coming: that WE were hopeless, WE were disturbed and, I think, accepting that some things are hopeless... or letting hope in one area die so that hope can start to live in another? Maybe this is the beginning of the answer."
Coyne, along with Steven Drozd, Michael Ivins and Ronald Jones formed The Flaming Lips in Oklahoma City and have been together since 1983.
This past February, a mix titled "Songs of Love" was released on a USB stick that could only be found once you ate your way to the middle of an anatomically correct chocolate heart.
Over the past three decades, the group has stood by their weird roots not only for their own enjoyment but also in order to stay relevant. Fans have come to expect such strange antics from Coyne and crew and learned to accept and appreciate their work for what it is.
The image provided is too blurry to be clearly read. It appears to be a grayscale pixelated representation of a scene, but the content is indistinct and cannot be accurately described.
ASSOCIATED PRESS
Live performances almost always include Coyne running over the crowd in a life-sized hamster ball in addition to large balloons floating over the crowd that explode with confetti once popped.
While these are some of the very few things fans can expect from The Flaming Lips, most of their actions remain completely spontaneous. They plan to continue their style of non-traditional songwriting skills, and have started to abandon the act of writing songs altogether, as can be heard throughout this album.

'Indicud' impresses, but not what fans expect
rwright@kansan.com
RYAN WRIGHT
Bolton.
It's been more than two years since Kid Cudi's last album, "Man on the Moon II: The Legend of Mr. Rager." After a rock album with longtime collaborator Dot da Genius, Cudi returns with his latest solo effort "Indicud," released today.
When Cudi initially announced "Indicus," he likened it to Dr. Dre's classic "2001." He described it as a feature-heavy album and said on some of the songs he wouldn't have vocals — he would just be a songwriter.
Now that we have the final version of "Indicud," it seems the direction of the album changed. There are only eight featured artists on the 18-song tracklist, including a surprising feature from Michael
As far as lyrics go, it's typical Cudi. The great thing about Cudi is he doesn't need to be overly complex with his lyrics and uses double entendres to try to get his point across. Cudi is simplicity at its finest.
"Indicud" is the first Kid Cudi album to feature production exclusively from him. Cudi has dabbled in production, but this is the first time he's actually taken it seriously. Cudi shows signs of becoming a great producer, but you can also hear his inexperience on the album. Some of the songs are flat-out boring, which might be due to the album only having one producer.
Even though there weren't as many features as expected, the featured artists that do appear on "Indicud" do a great job. The de
facto leader of the Wu-Tang Clan, RZA, shows up on "Beez" and delivers two amazing verses, perhaps the best verses the rap legend has had in the last few years.
Longtime friend and frequent collaborator King Chip also shows up on three tracks and holds his own with Cudi. A$AP Rocky also is on one of the standout tracks, "Brothers," which is a smooth, laidback song where he, King Chip and Cudi strive.
"Indicud" is a great album, and it really grows on you after several listens. It may not be what fans have come to expect due to the brilliance of his first two albums, but you have to respect Cudi as a musician for doing what he wants as opposed to listening to others.

Red Sox defeat Rays 3-2 in traditional Patriots Day game
ASSOCIATED PRESS
BOSTON — The Red Sox and Rays were making their ways out of Fenway Park when two explosions near the finish line of the Boston Marathon were heard at the stadium.
The Red Sox beat the Rays 3-2 on an RBI double by Mike Napoli in the ninth inning on Monday in Boston's traditional Patriots' Day morning game.
SPORTS AUTHORIZED Advil Gulf CV 42 42 42 42 42
Boston Red Sox players line up for the National Anthem all wearing number 42 in honor of Jackie Robinson Day before a baseball game between the Red Sox and the Tampa Bay Rays at Fenway Park in Boston Monday.
The game began at 11:05 a.m. and ended at about 10 minutes after 2 p.m. A little less than an hour after that, about a mile away, the
explosions from Copley Square could be heard by those in and around Fenway — but not in the clubhouses where the teams were getting ready to leave.
ASSOCIATED PRESS
The players seemed unaware of the explosions as they were interviewed by reporters. In the Red Sox room, they dressed in suits and ties for their trip to Cleveland, where they're scheduled to start a three-game series against the Indians on Tuesday night.
"It was awesome, a strong man to be able to hit a ball one- handed out in front like that and just hit it off the top of the wall."
A team spokesman sent a text message saying the team had
reached the airport. And Tampa Bay manager tweeted a few hours after the game: "Just landed safely in Baltimore. Our thoughts and prayers are with the victims & the families affected by this afternoon's horrible event."
The game sent the Red Sox fans home happy — at least for a while.
With the score tied at 2, Napoli drove a line-drive double off the left-field wall in the ninth inning that scored Dustin Pedroia from first with the winning run.
"I was a little out front but I was able to keep my hands back," Napoli said. "My body went a little forward

handed out in front like that and hit it off the top of the wall," he said, "but it's huge, a guy with that much power, its a threat and it's nice to have that in our lineup."

Joel Peralta (0-1) retired Boston's first batter in the bottom of the ninth before walking Pedroia. Napoli then ended it.

"Hopefully they'll invite us back next year and we can get back on a streak," Rays manager Joe Maddon
said.
It was also Jackie Robinson Day around the majors.
All uniformed team personnel wore the number 42 on their uniforms in recognition of Robinson, marking the 66th anniversary of his breaking the Major League Baseball color barrier with the Brooklyn Dodgers.

WRIGLEY FIELD
HOME OF
CHICAGO CUBS
CHICAGO, IL
ASSOCIATED PRESS
People walk outside Wrigley Field in Chicago before the Chicago Cubs season home opening baseball game against the Milwaukee Brewers on April 8. In an agreement announced Sunday, the historic ballpark will get a $500 million facelift, including its first electronic outfield video board, as part of a hard-fought agreement between the City of Chicago and the ball team.
Chicago Cubs unveil details for $500 million renovations
ASSOCIATED PRESS
CHICAGO — The Chicago Cubs have been fighting for years to get back to the World Series. They may have a fight on their hands to upgrade Wrigley Field, too.
The Cubs unveiled details Monday of their $500 million plan to renovate the 99-year-old ballpark. It calls for more night games, a new hotel, a new clubhouse, extended beer sales, various upgrades for fans — and a massive electronic video screen that could spark a legal battle with rooftop owners who have a financial stake in being able to view the games from across the street.
The proposed 6,000-square-foot screen in left field is nearly three times as large as the venerable scoreboard currently atop the centerfield bleachers. Team chairman Tom Ricketts said "significant" advertising-related revenue from the video screen and a 1,000-square-foot sign in right field would be pumped back into the team.
"If this plan is approved, we will win the World Series for our city." Rickettts said of the Cubs, who have not won it all since 1908 and haven't played in the series since 1945.
The Cubs say rooftop views would be "largely preserved" and that the sign and screen are "far less than our original desire for seven signs to help offset the cost of ballpark restoration." Ricketts would not say what the team means when
it says the signs would have "minimal impact" on the views from the rooftops. Nor would he discuss the likelihood of a lawsuit, saying only that "we will take that issue as it comes."
"We have a contract with the Chicago Cubs and we intend to see that it's enforced," said Beth Murphy, who owns rooftop bleachers and Murphy's Bleachers, a popular tavern just beyond Wrigley's centerfield wall. "We have fulfilled our end of the contract, we pay them 17 percent of our gross revenues every year."
The rub is that the rooftop owners have a contract with the Cubs in which they share revenue from the rooftop seats — an unusual arrangement, to be sure. The rooftop owners have 11 years remaining on the contract, and they showed no sign of endorsing the big new signs the Cubs want to put up.
Murphy said the rooftop owners were shut out of negotiations between the city and the team. She said she couldn't imagine how a 6,000-square-foot sign — slightly more than a tenth of an acre — could be installed without disrupting views from the rooftops.
Rickett said the two sides have a ways to go, that the agreement must be approved by city planners and the City Council. But he said Mayor Rahm Emanuel and the alderman whose ward includes Wrigley Field, Tom Tunney, support the overall plan. The mayor's office has, in fact, agreed the signs can be installed, but there has been
no agreement on size or design.
Only Boston's Fenway Park is older than Wrigley Field among major league parks. Baseball purses love its intimacy — the ivycovered walls, the commitment to day games — but the team says it spends $15 million a year just to keep up with basic repairs and desperately wants new revenue to pay for new amenities. A better showcase could perhaps help the Cubs snap a World Series championship drought that dates to 1908, six years before Wrigley was built.
Under the plan, the number of night games could be increased from 30 to 40, and construction would include a 175-room hotel, an office building with retail space and health club, and 1,000 "remote" parking spots that would be free and come with shuttle service. Emanuel has hailed the "framework" agreement, noting that it includes no taxpayer funding.
If the deal wins approval from city officials, Rickets said work could begin after this season ends and be completed over the next five years.
A final deal, when it comes, will end lengthy and sometimes contentious negotiations. The Ricketts family has been pushing for an overhaul of the aging ballpark and ways to bring in more money since buying the Cubs in 2009 for $845 million. Ricketts said the goal was always to keep the Cubs at Wrigley, where he met his future wife.

Goodrich heads to Shock after WNBA Draft
Kansas senior Angel Goodrich will be heading back to Oklahoma — the state where she won three 3A state titles at Sequoyah High School — as the 29th overall pick by the Tulsa Shock in the third round of the 2013 WNBA Draft.
Training camp begins May 5, just 35 days after Goodrich endered her Kansas career with a loss to Nutre Dame and her new Shock teammate, Skylar Diggins. The first pre-season games for the rookies will be played on May 10, and the regular season begins on May 29.
It will be a quick turnaround for Goodrich from college basketball to the WNBA.
Goodrich said she wouldn't know what to expect going to a large city like New York or Chicago, but, as it turns
out, she will be starting her professional career a mere 65 miles from her hometown of Tailequah, Okla.
From her own observations of watching WNBA games on TV and in person, she said she knows that there is a more physical style of play in the WNBA.
Goodrich said she has talked to former Jayhawk and Connecticut Sun player Danielle McCray, who has told her that as a professional player, there will be more much more responsibility.
Of the 36 players selected in the draft, eight of them are coming from the Big 12 conference, with Baylor forward Brittney Griner going first overall to the Phoenix Mercury.
Kansas senior forward Carolyn Davis went surprisingly undrafted after being projected by several mock drafts as a first-round pick.

Tight end suspended for first games of 2013
Kansas officials did not provide further details.
Kansas coach Charlie Weis
announced on Monday that senior tight
end Nick Sizemore has been suspended
for the first three games of the 2013
season due to a violation of team rules.
Sizemore, a Littz, Pa., native, started one game last year and played in nine. He caught two passes for 10 yards and recorded two tackles on special teams in 2012. He spent 2009 playing at Buffalo before transferring to Kansas.
"As I have previously stated, every player on our team knows and understands our rules and regulations." Weis said. "They also know the consequences for violations."

Piche' named Big 12 Newcomer of the Week
Kansas junior relief pitcher Jordan Piche' was named the Big 12 conference's Newcomer of the Week for the second week in a row this week. In this weekend's series against Texas, Piche' recorded a save and a win.
The junior reliever's win helped Kansas to its first series victory over Texas since 2009. Piche' is the first Jayhawk to be named Newcomer of the Week in
back-to-back weeks since Robby Price in 2010.
Piche' earned his fifth win of the season, pitching 4 1/3 innings in a 12-inning victory. The Grelee, Colo. native didn't allow a run in six innings spanning two appearances over the weekend.
Piche' is leading the Big 12 with .49 ERA in 36 2/3 innings and is tied for the conference lead with seven saves.

Nuggets snag first-round victory
ASSOCIATED PRESS
MILWAUKEE — Ty Lawson scored 26 points, including a jumper in the lane with 9.3 seconds left, and the Denver Nuggets clinched home-court advantage in the first round of the playoffs with a 112-114 victory over the Milwaukee Bucks on Monday night.
Wilson Chandler added 21 points for the Nuggets, who can secure the No. 3 seed in the West with one more victory or two losses by the Los Angeles Clippers.
Milwaukee lost its season-high fifth game in a row despite Monta Ellis scoring 38 points, one shy of his season high.

Ellis' four-point play with 14.2 seconds left gave the Bucks a 111-110 lead. Ellis, who had 19 fourth-
After a timeout, Lawson caught the inbounds pass in front of Millwaukee's bench. With Ellis guarding him, Lawson drove to his right and pulled up in the lane to hit his winning shot.
J. J. Reddick, who contributed 20 points for the Bucks, missed a 3-pointer from the center of the arc as time expired.
Milwaukee, which already had climbed the No. 8 spot in the East, finished with a 21-20 record at home.
Forward Kenneth Faried did not play because of the left ankle he sprained in Denver's victory over Portland on Sunday.
That didn't stop the Nuggets (56-25), who added to their franchise record for victories in a season by winning for the 22nd time in their last 25 games.
JaVale McGee came off the bench and finished with 17 rebounds and 10 points for Denver, which closes the regular season Wednesday when its hosts Phoenix. The Nuggets have won their last 22 games at home.
John Henson had 14 points and 15 rebounds for the Bucks, who lost their fifth straight game to Denver.
Milwaukee is closing the regular season with no momentum at all. The team has just three victories in its last 15 games and will try to halt a nine-game road losing streak Wednesday at Oklahoma City.
Milwaukee held a one-point lead with about 1 minute left when Ersan Ilyasova grabbed a rebound off a missed shot by Andre Miller, but he lost the ball out of bounds.
Denver capitalized with a basket by Andre Iguodala for a 108-107 lead with 52 seconds remaining.
Mike Dunleavy missed a shot and Miller's two free throws gave the Nuggets a 110-107 lead with 25.4 seconds left.
Earlier in the quarter, Denver held a 98-92 lead when Ellis scored eight points in a row. He drilled a 3-pointer, a jump shot and then another 3-pointer to give Milwaukee a 100-98 lead with 4:30 to go.
A slam dunk along the baseline by Ekpe Udoh with 9:20 left gave Milwaukee an 87-86 lead, its first since early in the first quarter.

Bulls break losing streak, turn attention to tournament
ORLANDO, Fla. — Carlos Boozer scored 22 points, Luol Deng added 18 and the Chicago Bulls snapped a two-game loss streak with a 102-84 victory over the Orlando Magic on Monday night.
The win, which was the Bulls' fifth straight over the Magic, also keeps alive their hopes of catching of Atlanta for the fifth seed in the Eastern Conference. They conclude their regular-season schedule at home Wednesday against Washington. Chicago needs to win that game and for Atlanta to split or lose their final two.
The Magic finish just 12-29 at home, their fewest victories in Orlando since they were 11-30 during the 2003-04. Orlando wraps up its schedule Wednesday in Miami.
Though he's shrugged off questions lately about his team's play-off preparations, Bulls coach Tom Thibodeau did manage to get both Joakim Noah and Taj Gibson some work Monday after each had played sparingly down the stretch.
Tobias Harris led Orlando with 20 points, followed by Nik Vucevic with 17 points and 14 rebounds.
Chicago maintained its momentum as the lead quickly ballooned above 20 in the opening minutes of the third quarter. Orlando tried to make a few pushes, but never really threatened in the final 12 minutes.
Neither started the game, but Noah (right foot) was back on the court for just the second time in 14 games and Gibson (left knee) played for the first time in eight games.
Maurice Harkless also chipped in 16 points.

The Bulls started slow,but outscored the Magic 28-14 in the second quarter to take a 12-point edge into the break.
Richard Hamilton also return❶ to action after serving a one-game
Deng and Boozer did most of the early offensive lifting, combining for 26 points in the half.
The Magic had just three turnovers in the first quarter. They gave it away six times in the second quarter, leading to 10 Chicago points.

which beat Releford's team, Roger Brown's Restaurant, 87-78 in the final game. Releford notched two points, two turnovers and one steal in 28 minutes of play.
"I realized that we had a chance to play each other, and we talked it up," Johnson said. "We had a couple of smart comments for each other, but not nothing too risky, risking our relationship for nothing like that."
KANSAS COULD ADD MORE PLAYERS
Self has five recruits committed to joining his team next season, including two five-star players in guard Wayne Selden and center Joel Embiid. The Jayhawks have three open scholarships, which Self said he might use if he finds a player who fits into Kansas' system. One of those players is top overall recruit Andrew Wiggins, a forward who is considering Kansas, Kentucky, North Carolina and Florida State. Per NCAA rules, Self can't per comment on any unsigned players, but he said he is still on the recruiting trail.
"If we could get a couple more, if they're the right couple, then I think wed be interested in doing that." Self said. "It will probably benefit us if we are able to sign a couple more from a depth standpoint, but I'm really happy with the guys we have coming in."

THE MORNING BREW Spring game gives taste of'14 season
TRIVIA OF THE DAY
Q: When was the last time Kansas beat a current Big 12 team?
ESPN.com
A: Iowa State in 2009
On Saturday, the University held its annual Spring Football
Game. For Jayhawk fans, it was their first chance to get a look at the 2013-2014 Kansas Football team in a game-like situation.
"The Blue" team, comprised of mostly first-string players, defeated the "White" team, made up of most backup players, 34-7 — pretty much what you would expect from a spring game. The team played well, and the weather was nice. It was just about all you could ask for on a Saturday afternoon in April.
While it was nice to see the team inside Memorial Stadium once again, we have to remember that this, as much as we confuse it as a huge deal, is simply a glorified inter-squad practice. There really is only so much you can take away from it.
For one, the offense and defense that the Blue team faced
will not grade out like a Big 12 offense or defense. It is at best comparable to an early FCS foe.
Second of all, Charlie Wets knows all and well not to dip too deep into his playbook. We didn't see a whole lot of Tavon Austin-like packages for Tony Pierson, and Jake Heaps was given mostly conservative reads. I don't blame him since Bill Snyder will be watching the tape until he is红 in the eyes.
By Daniel Harmsen
dharmsen@kansan.com
Additionally, a healthy amount of the team's probable starters aren't even on campus yet— namely on the defensive side of the ball.
Jake Heaps stole the show on Saturday, completing 20 of 28 passes for 257 yards and four touchdowns; Justin McCay caught a touchdown pass as a receiver, something Kansas managed to do not once last year; and Tony Pierson and James Sims were fabulous as usual. But
The Kansas defense will look a lot different this fall. Maruel Combs, the No.1 junior college prospect in the country according to ESPN.com, will provide Kansas a force in the backfield. Andrew Bolton, who was recruited by LSU among many other schools, will bring the heat off the edge. Marcus Jenkins-Moore fits more of the mold of linebacker that is needed to defend
the big reason to get excited for next year could not be appreciated on that beautiful Saturday afternoon.
KU
against the high-octane offenses in the Big 12 than any player currently on the depth chart. Dexter McDonald, Kevin Short and Cassius Sendish (who played limited time on Saturday) should provide Kansas with some fast, physical corners that can hang with Big 12 receivers. We will see these guys in the summer.
Ben Heeney and Jake Love showed a lot of promise last season at linebacker. They will return more experienced and hungry. According to Charlie Weis himself, Keon Stowers is consistently in the opposing team's backfield. Kevin Young and Ben Goodman were two of the best linemen near the end of the season last year. If they can stay healthy, the defensive line should be deeper than it has been in a long time.
Chris Martin, a former five
Team speed is the key. Kansas should have a much faster defensive unit. With Dave Campo calling the shots, this defense could be a little salty.
star defensive end/linebacker, will try to disrupt the flow of the opposing offense alongside Michael Reynolds.
I'm not expecting Kansas to shut down Big 12 offenses. It's just not going to happen. But if they can steal a few possessions or force a few extra three and outs, they beat Rice, Northern Illinois, Oklahoma State, Texas and Texas Tech last year. Rather than going 1-11, they go 6-6 and possibly win a bowl game.

COMMENTARY Kansas unlikely Big 12 contender
Kansas baseball doesn't look like an early '90s Major League squad at the plate.
kansan.com
In fact, the style of play frequenting Hoglund Ballpark is quite the opposite. It's not about the long ball. The chicks may dig it, but the Jayhawks haven't needed it to this point.
A three-bunt game from senior shortstop Kevin Kuntz is a more likely occurrence than one of the lahawks' six homers.
The lack of the long ball hasn't bothered Kansas baseball. For the Jayhawks, manufacturing runs is a way of life that has landed them among the best in the conference a little more than halfway through the 2013 slate.
The Jayhawks' 7-5 record in the Big 12 lands them one game behind the conference-leading Oklahoma Sooners' 8-4 mark in a league that could easily see the top five finishes within mere games of each other.
This weekend's series against the admittedly downtrodden Texas Longhorns, a team that touts six national championships in its program history and 17-year veteran manager Augie Garrido, is a bit of a statement series for the lawhaves.
By Trevor Graff
tgraff@kansan.com
Kansas, picked to finish eighth in the Big 12 conference by several pre-season pollsters, has played the toughest stretch of their conference schedule.
They beat a preseason top-10 TCU squad two games to one in the conference opening series in Fort Worth, Texas. They redeemed them in Norman, Okla., beating the Sooners 10-8 on Sunday after two tough defeats earlier in the weekend.
In Hoglund Ballpark, the Jayhawks have beaten a then 19th-ranked Oklahoma State and Texas two games to one.
Many surrounding Big 12 baseball would tell you the jayhawks have played their toughest games already, but those involved with the program won't take that view.
Kansas has protected the home field turf well this season, going 11-3 in Hogland after a snow-deployed start to the home season.
For the Jayhawks, it's off to Creighton today to face a team that beat the Jayhawks 6-4 in Hoglund Ballpark earlier this season. Home losses are an uncommon sight for Kansas baseball.
Protecting the home stadium isn't the only focus for the rest of the season. Coach Ritch Price's staff is undoubtedly focusing on getting solid starting pitching and continuing to find ways to manufacture runs.
The Kansas lineup has struggled to keep people healthy. The starting rotation suffered several rough appearances against Big 12 lineups. Fielding has struggled at times with multi-error games.
Kansas starters have combined for 188 2/3 innings and a record of 11-10 on the season. The group is increasingly getting 6-inning plus performances, getting the ball to red-hot closer Jordan Piche'.
Regardless of whatever trail baseball fans and coaching staffs choose to nitpick, the players on the field continue to grind out wins. It isn't always pretty in Hogland, but at the moment Kansas is getting the job done.

A JAYHAWK FAREWELL
SELF RESILIENCE
Despite early-season hiccups, Self praises team at annual banquet
GEOFFREY CALVERT
One year after taking a team with only one returning starter to the national title game, coach Bill Self made a bold statement about this year's squad that advanced to the Sweet Sixteen during the team's annual banquet Monday evening.
gcalvert@kansan.com
After his team finished 2-2 during its summer trip to Europe last August, Self couldn't find much praise for his team.
"We sucked over there," Self said. "This year I thought would be probably the biggest challenge from a rebuilding standpoint that we've had since we've been here."
Of course, as every Bill Self team seems to do, Kansas won, and won often. The Jayhawks finished 61, 6 earned their fifth No. 1 seed in the past seven years and retained what now must seem like a birthright, a ninth consecutive Big 12 title.
Despite a disappointing loss to Michigan in the Sweet Sixteen, the banquet focused on the season's positives. A joyful Self joked about plenty of topics, ranging from former Jayhawk and current radio announcer Greg Gurley's talent at the free throw line to Jayhawk radio announcer Bob Davis' age. Self even jokingly called out senior guard Elijah Johnson for his dunk at the end of the Iowa State game in Ames, Iowa, in late February.
"They talk about Elijah's 39
points, which I think is great. Elijah, but the last two almost got my ass whipped after the game" Self said.
Self also took time to look to next season during Monday night's ceremony. He told the audience that freshman forward Perry Ellis could average 15 points per game next season, and he also glowingly referred to Landen Lucas, a forward who redshirted this season, as "a bull."
Perhaps his highest praise was for a player who won't be on the Jayhawks' roster next season - freshman guard Ben McLemore, who declared for the NBA Draft last week. Self said McLemore could eventually reach a plateau that none of his players during his 10 years at Kansas have reached once they got to the NBA.
"If you're not an NBA All-Star, I think everybody in here will be disappointed," Self said.
TWO SENIORS SHARE TEAM AWARD
Kansas presents one award at its banquet, the Danny Manning Award, given to the player who best encompasses what being a Jayhawk represents. Just like last season, when Tyshawn Taylor and Thomas Robinson shared the award, two more departing players, seniors Jeff Withey and Travis Leford, split it this season.
"I think over the course of their career, those guys have graduated and done everything
that they've been asked to do and made sacrifices," Self said, "I think you could probably make a case for a couple more."
When Withey first arrived in Lawrence after transferring from Arizona, he remained firmly on the end of the bench behind Kansas' other big men, including Cole Aldrich, Marcus and Markieff Morris, Thomas Robinson and Mario Little.
Withey, who figures to become the fifth one of those big men taken in the NBA Draft, said he was thrilled to join players like Robinson as recipients of the Danny Manning award.
"It's awesome that I get to share it with Trav, too," Withey said. "He definitely deserves it."
SENIORS PREPARE FOR DRAFT
Kansas
Athletics
Both Withey and Johnson have signed with an agent and plan on working out in Lawrence for a few weeks until taking their training elsewhere. Withey said he would move to Los Angeles to continue preparing for the draft, while Johnson plans on going to Houston.
Both Johnson and Leeford recently participated in a pre-draft camp, the Portsmouth Invitational Tournament, and they faced each other in the final game. Johnson contributed five points, four steals, four assists and six turnovers in 30 minutes for K&D Roundscaping,

The Jayhawks continued to rely on the small ball fundamentals of baseball in their weekend series victory over Texas. Kansas is batting .283 with a total of six home runs on the season. Sophomore left fielder Michael Suiter continues to lead the Jayhawks at the plate with a .380 average, 18 RBI and 13 stolen bases. Senior Alex Delon has been hot of late with a .330 average and a team-leading 10 doubles.
PITCHING
Kansas pitchers continued to grind against Texas. Senior right hander Thomas Taylor struggled a bit through 6 innings, giving up nine hits and five earned runs on 104 pitches. Jordan Piche' continued his dominant play in the closers role with a 4 1/3 inning winning performance Friday and his sixth save of the year Sunday afternoon. Piche currently holds a 49 ERA with a 5-1 record 28 strikeouts and 36 2/3 innings pitched.
FIELDING
Kansas fielders committed only one error over the weekend against Texas. The team fielding percentage continues to hover around 97 percent, with 36 total errors committed in 35 games. Kansas middle infielders senior shortstop Kevin Kuntz and sophomore second baseman Justin Protacia have committed a total of seven errors this season. The infield tandem have provided a calming factor for Kansas pitching in the field.
HITTING
Creighton is batting .297 on the season with seven home runs and 144 RBIs as a squad. The Bluejays scored six runs on six hits against the Jayhawks April 2 in Hogland Ballpark, Junior Centerfielder Mike Gerber led the lineup with a two-hit performance and an RBI. Sophomore infielder Jake Peter leads the team with a .374 average, 23 RBIs and 43 hits.
PITCHING
The Bluejay pitching staff carries a 4.04 ERA and a 250 batting average against. In their last appearance against Kansas, freshman right-handed pitcher Austin Groth earned the win with a two-inning performance in which he gave up two hits and recorded a strike-out.
FIELDING
In its last appearance against the Jayhawks, Creighton committed a single error while the Jayhawks carded three. The Bluejays are fielding at a 98-percent rate with 20 errors on the season. Taking care of business in the field will be a key to winning in Omaha Tuesday.

Elizabeth Boresow has come a long way already.
It takes courage to find your voice. It's a lifelong process, and for some it can be incredibly challenging.
A senior from Overland Park studying music therapy, Boresow enjoys spending time with friends at her residence hall, where she is known by her nickname, "EB". plays piano for Wesley KU and loves tutoring other students in calculus ("It's so much fun," she said). She has an internship with Lawrence Public Schools as part of her major, but she enjoys taking classes outside of that, like basketball. She's cares about her role as president of the student group AbleHawks and Allies.
Boresow is also a student with autism. She's among the 700 students on campus that identify themselves as having a disability, and although she faces some different challenges than other students,
she experiences college the same as her classmates.
At the University, AbleHawks is advocating across campus for those with disabilities and accessibility needs. The group is made up of about 12 members of all abilities who work with the director of accessibility in ADA Education and the office of Institutional Opportunity and Access.
"It's not disability club, this is a club for everyone," Boresow said. "It's a student group for people — students, staff, whover — all these people who care about accessibility"
Currently, the group is addressing issues of transportation between Jayhawk and Sunnyside Boulevard as well as working to facilitate an accessible entrance in the front of Strong Hall.
"You wouldn't believe that a small group who has 12 regular people would be able to get a lot done, but we do," said Cynthia Marta, a graduate student from Rantoul.
After being involved in a car accident and sustaining a brain injury, Amanda Thompson, a junior from Lincoln, said finding the group has impacted her life by providing a community of friends.
"AbleHawks helped me find my voice, and I am so grateful for it," she said.
Transitioning from high school to college can be a difficult process, but the presence of a disability can make it slightly more challenging.

"We have a process, but the student has to initiate that process," she said. "We make it as easy as we can, we have an online request form, we'll contact the faculty member, but nevertheless, the student has to become a good self-advocate to talk to faculty about what they need."
Access Center, said the services that students with disabilities receive in high school are often "prepackaged"; and the individual does not receive much say in setting up his or her accommodations.
Rasnak said that students must learn to be vocal about their needs

The AAAC provides services and accommodations in classrooms, housing and transportation. These include alternative rooms and extended
time for testing, alternative texts, such as Braille and sign language interpretation.
Students who identify and provide documentation of a disability can confidentially disclose their information with the AAAC, which acts as a liaison between
the student and faculty to provide appropriate accommodations.
ADAPTING TO CAMPUS LIFE
Preston Brown, a junior from Wichita, is legally blind. He originally attended the New York Conservatory for Dramatic Arts to study acting before transferring to the KU School of Business. With the help of a cane and seeing-eye dog, Brown said he gets around campus and the community easily.
"I lived in New York City for six months out of high school by myself, so I really don't understand the concept of a challenge," he said. "Nothing really holds me back."
Although some students are confident in their coping strategies coming into college and don't feel a need to identify themselves with the office, Rasnak said those who do choose to seek accommodations have an opportunity to make a difference.
"Their presence in a classroom really exposes everyone in the classroom to the ability part of that equation," she said. "It helps
everyone focus on the ability of that person to participate, to be an active participant, to serve in a leadership role."
Brown said he considers himself a "trailblazer" at the University.
"When I went to New York City, I was the first legally blind student in the conservatory. Going through the business school, I've definitely been some of my professor's first legally blind student," he said. "Hopefully I provide an enjoyable learning opportunity."
However, Brown said it's helpful to be aware of possible accommodations coming into college. Having been part of an Individualized Educational Plan throughout school, Brown knew he needed a reduced distraction room and scribe to read exams aloud. He takes notes and downloads textbooks on a Victor Reader Stream device

'Hawks for Boston' raises funds to aid Red Cross relief efforts
EMILY DONOVAN

"What really touched me was seeing the civilians helping each other," Perry, who is from Auburn, said. "Just seeing the good in people come out to help their peers was really moving for me. My reaction at first was shock but I tried to focus on the positive and look at what was getting done to make the situation better."
Senior Kait Perry considers herself a cynical person. But, seeing the aid given at the Boston Marathon Monday, she was reminded that people are good at the core.
Knowing that she wouldn't be alone in her desire to make the situation better, Perry found what she and fellow Jayhawks could do to reach out to the Boston community in the wake of the explosions that killed three people and injured dozens more. Sitting in a coffee shop Monday night, unable to concentrate on writing a paper, she rallied support and mobilized. Within 24 hours, Hawks for Boston has raised more than $1,300 to benefit the American Red Cross.
To get permission to table on campus, Hawks for Boston needed a student organization to sponsor. As Perry has been a student senator
for two years, she reached out to Student Senate, which offered the manpower and Twitter followers to get the public involved and aware of the cause.
In the first two hours of the fundraising website going live, donations had already surpassed Perry's initial goal of $500.
"The American Red Cross works closely with the United States government to be the first responders
"it's cool to see an organization that I've worked with back up one of my ideas," Perry said.

A large, diverse assemblage of people stretched in unison around the South Park gazebo as the sun disappeared behind an overcast sky around 6:30 yesterday evening. Members of the crowd, some with dogs and stroller-housed toddlers in tow, reached down to touch their toes, waved arms from side to side and performed jumping jacks to prepare themselves for the three-mile Run for Boston through downtown Lawrence.
"This is a way to show support for other runners, especially those who have lost the opportunity to run after the events in
Boston," said Libby McCollom, a sophomore from Fort Collins, Colo., before taking off down Massachusetts Street along with approximately 200 fellow runners.
Local attorney Jon King organized the run after hearing of the bombings at Monday's Boston Marathon that left three people dead and more than 100 injured.
King's friend John Frydman, a fellow lawyer and Lawrence resident, competed in the Boston Marathon, finishing the race two minutes before the first bomb exploded. Frydman and his wife returned home safe to Lawrence on Monday night.

"I'm running for my friend Megan, who ran at the Boston Marathon yesterday and missed the explosions by nine minutes," the sophomore from Leon said. "She's safe now, north of Boston."
Before the start of the run, a bag was passed through the crowd to collect donations for the Lawrence Police Foundation. The event proceeds totaled $785.
Harlee Schiermeister, a participant in last night's event, shared a similar story.
King said the decision to donate the event's proceeds to a local charity came from seeing news coverage of the Boston bombings, where workers such as police offi-

Construction on the University's portion of Rock Chalk Park officially commenced with the groundbreaking ceremony on Tuesday.
The new facility will consist of a 1,500-seat softball stadium, a 2,500-seat soccer stadium, a 10,000-seat track and field complex and a 28,000-square-foot indoor training building. There will be parking for 700 cars and overflow space for 700 more. The project will cost the University $200.
The complex will be constructed on the northwest corner of town, just east of K-10.

"The cooperation between the University and the city has helped make this a reality."
The original cost of the project was estimated to be around $50 million, but the Bliss Sports Foundation offered to commit to the project for $39 million. The University will be making payments for the next 30 years.

vice-chairman of the Lawrence Parks and Recreation Advisory Board, expressed his support of the collaboration.
"We're hopeful that the 2014 Kansas Relays will be held at the new facility," he said.
"We've voiced support for the KU relationship," he said, "It's a great partnership. I don't know if the project would have happened if there hadn't been cooperation between KU and the city."
"The cooperation between the University and the city has helped make this a reality," he said. "It's really been a terrific partnership, and we're looking forward to seeing all of these facilities built."
Marchiony agreed with Loos' comments.
According to Marchiony, if construction proceeds as expected, the new complex should be completed in a year.

Traveling festival features 15 films to promote culture
The Kansas African Studies Center is hosting the second Africa World Documentary Film Festival beginning tonight at 7 p.m. with screenings of 15 films
through Saturday.
The central mission of the festival is to promote an understanding of Africa and the knowledge and culture of African people.
Christina Lux, assistant director of the Kansas African Studies Center, was a member of the film selection committee along
with doctoral students in film and media studies and anthropology.
"Documentary films reach a broad community with information about Africa," Lux said. "The content of the films and the art in the films is really astounding."
Committee members previewed and discussed the 50
films on a list that they received. They also got faculty feedback before making their selection.
Lux said the committee looked for films with a range of topics in a range of regions throughout the continent of Africa to reach out to the University's audience.
The featured films are part of

you need," Brown said.
As their academic career progresses, Rasnak is hopeful that resources continue to benefit students.
Since coming to the University, Boresow has embraced becoming a self-advocate. The academics came easy, she said, but the daily living skills, sleeping in a new place and talking to new people, have been challenges she's overcome gradually.
"We are here to help them through the process, but we are definitely hoping as they go through this processes class after class, semester after semester, they're figuring out how they're going to be dealing with these issues because most of these disabilities aren't going to go away," she said. "They're lifetime conditions."
"A lot of people have the misunderstanding that an accommodation is an advantage," she said. "It's just to level the playing field."
She said she has needed accommodations in the classroom, such as needing to sit in a certain spot, finding a suitable group for group projects and helping her teachers understand her situation.
Transitioning from high school to college involves more work on the part of the student to be successful. Boresow said the accommodations in college are meant to give students a chance to succeed.
Throughout high school, Boresow felt more comfortable writing rather than giving a vocal presentation. Her Communications 130 class required for her major was one of the most difficult she's had to take.
"I didn't really get the opportunity to practice giving speeches throughout my public school education just because I wasn't capable, or it wasn't a good way for me to communicate," she said. "So I would always write a paper or do something else instead."
With the help of her TA, she completed the class and gained self-perspective.
"I'm in college, I'm expected to do college work, and I can," she said. "There are just some ways I'm a more efficient and effective contributor than others."
ANSAN 10 years 1gton
Making connections with colleagues within her tight-knit music therapy major is one thing Boresaw struggles with in college.
"I wanted to be friends with them because we had those group projects or I needed help with homework, and I just didn't know how to do that and there was no one to help me with that," she said. "I love and respect them but we're acquaintances, and I wish we were more than that."
Boresow said she also struggles relating to others outside of the classroom. She said she doesn't enjoy going to large parties because it can be too loud for her and she isn't always familiar with the popular slang.
"Ive embraced that, the fact that I am clueless and people will be laughing, and I'll start laughing because they're laughing," she said. "But I don't know what's going on, and that's okay with me."
"That was an issue when I went out to Mass Street last year after the Final Four game," he said. "It was pretty crazy out there, and I still enjoyed it, but part of me was still like, 'How am I going to get around this huge crowd?'
George Li, a senior from Overland Park, uses a wheelchair. He said he sometimes feels anxiety about being able to maneuver among large groups.
One drastic shift she noticed recently was the parking signs, which now read "accessible parking" rather than "handicapped parking."
Li has Duchene muscular dystrophy, a degenerative and progressive disease that results in
Interacting with students who identify as having a disability is something rarely talked about and little understood.
Boresow said she encourages others to ask questions but also to be sensitive to certain words and situations.
muscle weakness and loss. Unlike Boresow, the accommodations he needs are mostly physical, such as lowered light switches, clothing racks and counters in his dorm room, and tables at the proper height in his classrooms to comfortably fit his wheelchair
The choice of revealing a disability is a personal one, but Boresow said awareness of oneself is essential in living with a disability.
"There was one time where I actually did forget to do that. It was night and I was going up the hill. I made it up the hill, and then the chair stalled. So I started going through my phone and finding people to help me push," Li said. "We made it. We had to dry the chair out with a gigantic fan we borrowed from the desk."
In a typical morning, Li transfers himself from his bed to a manual wheelchair and then to a motorized one to "roll to class." He has to take precautions if there is inclement weather by wrapping the power controller in a plastic bag.
"That's a little stupid thing, but it's not. It shows that there's an attitude shift that's happened here and people are starting to say 'Yeah, we care.' Boresso said.
"The most important thing you can do is know your own strengths and weaknesses and be able to communicate those with others," she said.
Despite his reliance on a wheelchair to get around, Li said he isn't hindered socially.
Accessibility on campus is something that most people don't think about, but once it's brought into the public light it holds influence. Since she's been here, Boresow has seen accessibility on campus change for the better, and credits AbeHawks' involve
"I feel like the classmates that I have pretty much don't see me as any different than other people," he said.
"It's not just about us, it's about a greater community," she said.
The changes will not only benefit students and faculty, but visiting alumni, parents and prospective students.

"At the end of the day, layhawk like to support each other and like to support good causes," Perry said. "I'm totally surprised — it's been so cool to see so many people help out — but I think it's also the nature of what it means to be a layhawk."

Kansas lawmakers face important choice
Two bills proposed in the Kansas House of Representatives this yr
Representatives this year take different paths to reach the same goal: making sure Kansas is stuck in the mud on climate and energy issues.
HB 2366 would prohibit public funds to be used for anything the bill defines as "sustainable development", which is defined as "development in which resource use aims to meet human needs while preserving the environment so that these needs can be met not only in the present, but also for generations to come."
It's not that much of a surprise that the Kansas legislature wouldn't be giddy about environmental protection. We are, after all, a huge producer of oil and natural gas. But fossil fuel extraction, even that of natural gas, is dirty and holds environmental consequences. By outlining sustainable development, our state would not only subject our farmand and population to the hazards of drilling,
fracking, and processing but also make it harder to mitigate any damage that might be done. This is also tragic because of Kansas' potential to grow renewable energy by harnessing more wind power, and because of what many ordinary Kansans have already accomplished — remember the rebuilding of Greensburg after it was destroyed by a tornado in 2007?
A. R. E. S. L.
The other bill, HB 2306, affects the teaching of climate change science. Were it to become law, teachers would be required to approach climate change and the science surrounding it as "controversial"; and to give consideration to arguments against the impact of human activity on global temperature changes. Aside from the implicit political motivations of the bill that have no place in the classroom, it's outrageous to force public educators to treat climate change skepticism as a legitimate alternative.
Consider the results of a widely known 2010 study by Proceedings
By Eric Schumacher
eschumacher@kansan.com
of the National Academy of Science, "Expert Credibility in Climate Change." It showed that out of 908 scientists with expertise on human-influenced climate change, 97 percent were convinced that anthropocentric warming was occurring at least some extent. To be fair, that overwhelming majority has its own divisions about the extent of temperature increases and potential effects. But to label the very existence of human-influenced climate change "controversial" shows profound scientific ignorance on the part of those who drafted the bill. No one is helped when information is so blatantly misrepresented, but it is especially harmful to the children who will inherit the legacy of climate change, whatever it may be.
The two bills show the determination of some in Topeka to keep Kansas from adapting to a changing world and equipping us for the future, for reasons that are unclear. The effort to cripple sustainable development is a roadblock to something that is not only good for the state, but necessary. The fossil fuel lobby can sing the praises of natural gas all they like, but there's only so much down there. What will we tell the generation that has the bad luck to watch the world's supply of fossil fuels dry up on its watch? That we could have done something sooner, made the world or at least our small square of it ready to carry on without fossil fuels, but didn't? Sustainability also goes beyond energy: There's a great deal to be said for the value of sustainable agriculture. It's not hard to see how the language of the bill could apply to limiting sustainable agriculture development,
which would be a shameful development in a major agricultural state trying to recover from one of the worst droughts in recorded history.
Then there's the bill on climate change education. Kansas has had its issues with science education before, such as the 1999 decision to teach creationism alongside evolution. To deliberately misrepresent the climate change debate for thousands of young Kansans — the generation most likely to have to contend with effects of climate change — would be a disturbingly shortsighted development. The decision-makers in the capitol building have two choices: Either continue to trod down paths that will lead to nowhere, or make the choices for a better future now.
Either way, reality will find us. It's up to us whether we meet it on our own terms.

CAREER
College degree not meant to guarantee employment
It's hard to go a day at the University without hearing "When are we going to use this in the 'real world'?" Whether it's due to frustration or objectivity, students all over campus are crying out that their classes do not give them job-related skills or teach them a trade that has projected usefulness. They detest theory and demand practicality. Furthermore, these students are clamoring that the world they live in right now - a mixed life of part time work, full time studies, and part time partying - is not the "real world"
I can understand the sentiment. The college microcosm and any employment microcosm are dissimilar, though I stop short of naming one more "real" than the other. Classes are hit or miss when providing practical skills for employment. It isn't easy to see why some classes matter at all. If you have a LinkedIn account, perhaps you've seen the thousands of articles and lunch-time reads on why colleges fail to prepare students for the job market.
By Chris Ouyang couyang@kansan.com
The University has recognized this and introduced The KU Core, changes to the basic curriculum for incoming undergraduates at the University, designed to reshape the direction of college education. Students will have a broad background of knowledge, be socially responsible, think critically, and be creative. Still, I don't think reorganizing requirements will make students more job-ready.
And that is perfectlv OK.
Being job-ready is not the role of a college education. Consider this irony: Petroleum engineering students loathe geology because identifying rock types is not what an engineer does every day; it's why geologists are hired. You would think, out of all physical sciences, geology be most
crucial to petroleum engineering studies. Rather, no matter how applicable a class may purport to be, it seems that if the material covered is not directly related to "real life" students may find reason to loathe it.
It turns out that a college degree won't teach anyone to swing a hammer or split a wire. A college education is designed to make us more than workers that do, but rather workers that think. Is it better to have a brain surgeon that understands the human body or a brain surgeon who knows how to make the incision? Not every brain is the same – what happens to the incision-trained brain surgeon when the brain is different?
A college degree is meant as a barrier to entry. It is a proof of concept. When given a challenge, you fight. When given a problem, you solve. When faced with difficulty, you overcome. You learn when you need to; you apply when you have to.
It's true that some curriculums should be adjusted so that pertinent information is included. For example, it would behoove a petroleum engineering student to understand how an oil field goes from discovery to depletion at the company and contractor level. But to cull all classes that do not have this "real world" information is an astonishing underestimation of the value of proving that you can learn. A college degree does not mumble, "I have learned A, B, and C, all of which are things that you need so hire me." Rather, a college degree
screams. "I have proven that I can learn A, B, and C; meaning I can learn the rest of the damn alphabet if you need me to."
To even begin to think a class is a waste of time because one will "never use it in real life" is a tremendous failure to understand that the full-time employment phase of one's life is fluid and constantly changing. No one skill set is safe from becoming obsolete. A college degree is one of many life events designed to make you into moldable clay; constantly gripping about the "real world" is a desire to become a solid, pre-cut jigsaw piece. What happens if this jigsaw piece no longer fits the job market?
A remarkable misconception about an education at any university, including KU, is that a degree merits a job. False. An undergraduate degree is not designed to make you workforce ready. Each degree is a set of experiences that shows your exposure to disciplines and your ability to learn within those fields. From there on, it's up to you manipulate your exposure and abilities to benefit yourself. If you want to be workforce ready, search for an internship as if you will drown if you don't find one. Get a part time job. Connect with the University's many career services and network with college recruiters. Attend any company information session that you can. Meet professionals in the field you see yourself in. If no one will hire you, volunteer your time. You cannot expect your college education to make you job ready; it merely is a demonstration of your capacities. You have to do the rest.

ENVIRONMENT
'Green walls' could transform campus
Roofs covered with vegetation are a little more common here in the United States (see Scooter's Coffeehouse on 9th Street). However, recently green walls have been popping up in places all over Asia and Europe.
I think it is about time that the University surpasses the "ivy" league. When someone describes a building covered in plants, most people automatically think of ivy. However, what they may not know is that there is a much better alternative to common ivy. Innovative "green walls" are making a sustainable effects without the potential damage that ivy can sometimes cause. A "green wall" is a wall or side of building that is covered in specially engineered vegetation to serve a specific purpose while remaining aesthetically pleasing.
There are two main types of green walls: green facades and living walls. Green facades utilize climbing plants that are trained to grow around certain structures, while living walls are made up of prevegetated panels. The panels are prevegetated by attaching plants in polyamide felt, which is then attached to a rigid PVC sheet backed with metal tube scaffolding. High-tolerance plants are usually used for these walls but the colors and textures of these plants allow for some creative freedom.
According to the Associated Press, PNC Financial Services Group Inc. installed a living wall on the company's headquarters in Pittsburgh. The upkeep of this wall is relatively simple, requiring only 15 minutes of watering a week in the peak of its growing season. Chief Executive George Irwin said that on average, living walls cost about $100 to $125 per square foot. Although that might seem like a lofty price (especially for a wall covering nearly 2,400 square feet), these walls have huge effects. Also, green walls may end up paying for themselves in the money saved by the reduced energy consumption.
In the same article, landscape architecture professor at Michigan State, Joanne Westphal, said the biggest benefit to green walls is their ability to help
cool buildings through shading and by providing natural insulation. In addition to the cooling effects, Green Living, a company that sells and installs green walls, said that 600 panels can offset the carbon output of one person a day. Also, these walls are effective for removing air pollutants. Building Design and Construction Magazine said, "Cities are cooler and quieter through shading, evaporative transpiration, and the absorption of sound by green walls."
It's not just companies that are adopting this concept. The University of the Cloister of Sor Juana in Mexico City has a beautiful green wall complete with designs within the vegetation. Here in Kansas, according to Johnson County Community College's website, the college's Galileo's Pavilion has a green wall that was designed by studio 804, a deising program at the University of Kansas School of Architecture, Design and Planning.
By Jenny Stern
jstern@kansan.com
Because of the ability of these walls to reduce air pollution levels, cities are considering installing more green walls to remain below the air pollution standards. According to National Geographic Daily News, London and other Western European cities could particularly benefit from these walls due to trouble keeping the air pollution below imposed standards.
With that in mind, KU could revolutionize its buildings while giving campus an entirely new look. I'm not saying every wall needs to be turned into a green wall, but this addition would make for a healthier, more sustainable campus.

Federal authorities shatter gambling ring
NEW YORK — Dozens of people were charged on Tuesday in what investigators said was a Russian organized crime scheme that included illegal, high-stakes poker games for the rich and famous.
Federal authorities in New York City weren't naming names, but they said the poker players included pro athletes, Hollywood celebrities and Wall Street executives. None of them were facing charges.
NATIONAL
The money-laundering investigation led to arrests Tuesday in New York, Los Angeles, Miami and elsewhere around the country. There also were FBI raids at an apartment in Trump Tower on Fifth Avenue and a Madison Avenue art gallery owned by two of the defendants.

Among those named in an indictment filed in federal court was a wealthy Russian fugitive, Alizhmz Tokhtakhouhov. He was already under indictment in a separate U.S. case accusing him of bribling Olympic figure skating judges at the 2002 Winter Olympics in Salt Lake City.
In a two-month period beginning in late 2011, the money-laundering ring paid Tokhtakhourov $20 million in illegal proceeds, the indictment says.
Along with the illegal poker games, the ring operated "an international gambling business that catered to oligarchs residing in the former Soviet Union and throughout the world," the indictment says.

FASHION
Just because you're hitting the gym doesn't mean you should forget fashion. With new fitness apparel lines popping up everywhere, style is expected at the gym nowadays, too.
MCCLATCHY TRIBUNE
Dressing for a workout can be simple and also practical
CALLAN REILLY
creilly@kansan.com
With the Kansas Relays taking place at Memorial Stadium this week, you may be inspired to hit the gym but don't know what you wear. You most likely don't go to the gym to make a fashion statement. Rather, you're probably more likely exercising or something of that nature. Even with sweating and weight lifting should come some sense of style. Just because you're at the gym shouldn't mean you should throw all style out the window.
Dressing for exercise doesn't have to be difficult or expensive. The best and most simple way to go about it is to stick to an all black ensemble. Not only is black forgiving and flattering, but you can also wear it again and again.
Fancy or cute exercise apparel will make a statement, but can also be distinct, allowing you to only wear it occasionally.
Fitting clothing is recommended, especially when it comes to pants and capris. Unfitted or flared capris and pants can be deceiving in an unflattering way, and shorts can give away too much when it comes to certain activities such as yoga or Pilates. Avoid wearing loose or baggy tops to such activities as well. You'll be too busy pulling your shirt down to get anything from your work out. If wearing all black bores you, it can be easily spiced up with a fun pair of sneakers. With neutral colors being worn on top, all the fun can be had with your shoes. Fitted black capris and a black tank with a pair of bright Nikes are perfect for the gym or an active
afternoon.
It may sound silly to take note of what you wear to the gym, but if you look good, you feel good. And the saying seems to be true, as fitness apparel stores seem to be taking over malls nationwide these days. What used to be to left to Nike is now expanding rapidly with brands such as Lululemon, Lucy and Zella. Fashion designer Stella McCartney teamed up with Adidas to create a trendy fitness line last year after the designer created the uniforms for the Olympics, and the line continues for spring and summer 2013. It seems that fashion can't be forgotten in any setting these days, even at the student rec.

Indian government denies Playboy promoters'attempt to open club
ASSOCIATED PRESS
PANAJI, India — Indias going to have to wait for its first Playboy bunnies.
After a month of heated debate, the government in the tourist hotspot of Goa refused permission for promoters to open the country's first Playboy club in a 22,000-square-foot open-air property on upmarket Candolim beach.
Women's groups and conservative politicians had attacked the proposed club, with Michael Lobo, a legislator from the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party saying it was "tantamount to promoting prostitution."
In the end, the government barred the club from opening in one of India's most famous party locations on technical grounds. Chief Minister Manohar Parrikar told the state assembly Monday that licenses to run so-called beach shacks — even ones as large as the proposed Playboy club — could not be granted to
companies, only individuals.
"We cannot give them a license to operate a beach shack," Parrikar said.
Lobo has called on the government to prevent Playboy from setting shop in any form in the state.
Mumbai-based PB Lifestyle announced last year it had obtained an exclusive license to open Playboy clubs, hotels, bars and cafes and sell Playboy branded merchandise in India. It said it would start with a club in Goa and then expand to the southern city of Hyderabad.
Goa's decision does not bar the opening of a conventional Playboy club in in the state, just the beach shack.
PB Lifestyle chief executive Sanjay Gupta did not immediately respond to a message left at his office.
He said last year he was working to recast Playboy into an aspirational lifestyle brand that wouldn't spark a backlash in the conservative country, distancing itself from nudity and toning down the traditional, body-hugging bunny costume.
"It is not just a question of permitting Playboy in Candolin. It should be banned across Goa, because Goa should be veered away from international chains which promote vulgarity." Lobo said.
Agnelo Fernandes, a local Congress politician on whose property the beach club was to be located, called the government's decision "unfortunate." He has been acting as a de facto spokesman for the project during the controversy.
"It would have been great for Goa to have an international lifestyle brand. There is no question of vulgarity. Our bunny costumes which we had designed were more sober than the one's worn by the cheerleaders at the IPL (Indian Premier League)," Fernandes said, referring to a raucous Indian cricket league.

Gosling shines in 'The Place Beyond the Pines'
The problem with "The Place Beyond the Pines" is that its grand scope and narrative structure aren't more interesting or effective than the simple crime thriller it starts as. It's an admirable effort to be sure, providing a unique kind of storytelling rarely seen in cinema. But the direction the film takes in the middle and the end lacks the same level of compelling excitement found in the beginning.
The trailer leads you to believe it's a more straightforward tale of a sympathetic, motorcycling bank robber and the cop who's chasing him – the criminal trying to become a father, and the policeman facing corruption. Frankly, that would've been a terrific film.
Instead, director and co-writer Derek Cianfrance creates a more complex tale with something bigger to say, even though the momentum and character investment take on a more stunted dynamic and the result proves a far more divisive experience. He deserves big props though for having the gall to go for such an ambitious and bold project, despite it not being as thoroughly entertaining.
By Alex Lamb
alamb@kansan.com
What Cianfrance has crafted is a distinct three-act epic of crime, corruption and familial repercussion, where each act centers on a different character but they all tie together. That's a hard feat to pull off, one which some will find refreshing, and others, namely those expecting "Drive" on a motorcycle, will likely feel unpleasantly surprised if they aren't aware of what they're actually getting into. So stop reading here if you don't want to know how the story is split up.
The opening shot is the first in a number of impressive, extended single take tracking shots, this one following Luke Glanton (Ryan Gosling in his most badass role
yet) as he walks through a carnival into a tent with a spherical death cage in it. He and two others hop on motorcycles then zoom around and upside down this cage simultaneously at insane speeds, letting viewers know they're in for a hell of a trip.
Luke learns that a previous fling with a waitress (a very vulnerable Eva Mendes) has made him a father, and before long, he's left the circus, teamed up with a dirty mechanic (awesome Aussie actor Ben Mendelsohn) and starts robing banks on his bike to provide for his baby son. This 50-minute section of "Pines" is some of the best filmmaking of the year, featuring breathlessly tense motorcycle and heist sequences, incredible camera work, gripping emotion and wonderfully intricate detail.
Gosling conducts a live wire of deep poignancy and violent frustration, bringing resonant life to a character whose criminal capabilities and stamach sense of fatherly responsibility make him a relatable, flawed and ultra-cool hero. The myriad of marvelously designed tattoos he has and strange outfits he wears only char acterize him more memorably.
And then, in a perfect transition, the plot switches directions to rookie cop Avery Cross (Bradley Cooper carrying layered dramatic heft) as he crosses paths with Luke. Avery must deal with the consequences of his actions, while also trying to resolve the dirty deeds and corruption in the police department.
It's among Cooper's best work, and his scenes with Ray Liotta as an immoral officer crackle with suspense, slowly boiling to the surface. This middle section certainly captivates viewers, expressively continuing and building the story from before, but the jump in narrative is a shock, and this one never reaches the same exhilarating tone and pace set by the first part. Similarly, the emotion here is potent, but doesn't carry as much weight.
The final act suffers from this problem even more. I just say it takes place 15 years later and involves Avery's son (Emory Cohen) and Luke's son (Dane DeLifan, who was excellent in "Chronicle" and totally believable as the spawn of Gosling here) on a trajectory path laid out by their fathers.
This generational story approach connects the main themes in a fulfilling, astute way, but it feels like the stakes are lower and the plot less imperative by this point. It's still engrossing and superbly performed, but not as strong as either third of the movie before it.
As far as production values,
"The Place Beyond the Pines"
looks and sounds excellent from start to finish, and showcases fantastic performances all around. The soundtrack is especially chilling, as Mike Patton's echoing score draws viewers into the landscape with stirring power. All those aspects are fine; the plot is the issue. As a whole it succeeds, but the enthralling first third overshadows the rest. However, it's more than worth the ride for that alone.

FILM
Tribeca Film Festival looks to appeal to diverse crowd
MCCLATCHY TRIBUNE
It happens every spring. The Tribeca Film Festival opens its 12th edition Wednesday night with, as usual, something for everyone. Films for geeks. Films for freaks. Films for kids. Films that might not even be films. Robots. Cat videos. Jerry Lewis.
Founded in 2002, the festival has never devoted itself to strictly indie films, or to being totally Cannes on-the-Hudson. So the menu this year reflects the usual smorgasbord — and a much-anticipated closing-night presentation of the restored "The King of Comedy," starring Lewis, and Tribeca's co-founder Robert De Niro.
"The King of Comedy" has risen in stature among Martin Scorsese's films, but was close to appalling back in 1983 — De Niro's Rupert Pupkin wasn't just psychotic, he was a terrible comedian. But its dynamics may have changed. Because comedy has changed, and not necessarily for the better.
"Never mind comedy," said comedian Sandra Bernhard, who played Rupier's mad-as-a-hatter accomplice, Masha. "The culture is a complete disaster, and 'King of Comedy' is like frozing on a cake. It was shocking when we made it, because it had the impact of great acting and a great script, but not only did it all come to pass, it did so in a less sophisticated and wonderful way than we
predicted."
She doubts the film will be shocking — or scary — but says its impact has been widespread. "Almost every young comedian I meet, and all the generations in between, are like: 'Oh my god, 'King of Comedy,' my favorite movie,' and for good reason. It hit every chord."
Of local interest is "Big Shot," a documentary directed by Kevin Connolly ("Entrourage") about John Spano, the onetime owner of the islanders who was exposed as a fraud and spent several years in prison.
"Big Shot" is the festival's opening gala film Friday night, and was a natural project for a hard-core Islanders fan. "Being from Long Island, it was very important to me to highlight the importance of this organization to Long Island," Connolly said. "Without any disrespect to any other organization, he didn't do this to some Mickey Mouse franchise. This was a big deal. The Islanders did things that won't be done again."
What he didn't want to do was demonize Spano.
"My favorite show is 'Dateline', Connolly said. "Having said that, I didn't want to make a 'Dateline' episode on John Spano. Not to say that it was a victimless crime. But in the post-Madoff world, John seems not as terrible." Either way, it's a great story.
"What we do is try to appeal to very different audiences with
And Tribeca knows it.
great stories, and a lot of great stories are sports stories," said Genna Terranova, director of programming. She and a team culled 89 feature-length movies from 6,000 submissions, among them some of the season's hotter domestic titles.
In addition to what have become festival traditions — the Tribeca Drive-In (April 18-20), the family Festival Street Fair (April 27), Tribeca/ ESPN Sports Day (April 27) and Family Screenings ( April 21 and 27) — 30 countries and some of their more innovative filmmakers are represented this year.
If there's a dominant theme at this festival, it may well be the biopic, Gore Vidal, Elaine Stritch, Wilt Chamberlain, Muhammad Ali, Richard Pryor and director Michael Haneke are all subjects of full-scale portraiture. So are some relative unknowns, including the subject of "The Genius of Marian," a remarkably innovative use of nonfiction to depict a woman suffering from Alzheimer's.
Others to look forward to? "At Any Price," from director Ramin Bahrani, with Dennis Quaid and Zac Efron, a whole "Midnight" section of horror excess, and those robots we mentioned who, as part of Tribeca's transmedia effort ("Story scapes"), will be interviewing people, and making their own film. No word yet on whether they're planning their own festival.

Sharon and Ozzy Osbourne arrive at the Elton John AIDS Foundation's sixth annual benefit "An Enduring Vision" at The Waldorf-Astoria Hotel, in New York on Sept. 25, 2007. Ozzy Osbourne has denied rumors he has split from wife Sharon, and has apologized to his family for his return to alcohol and drugs.
Ozzy Osbourne denies divorce rumors, confirms sobriety
LOS ANGELES — Ozzy Osbourne has denied those split rumors, but he appears to have taken a ride on the crazy train once again – at least for a little while.
"For the last year and a half I have been drinking and taking drugs," he wrote. "I was in a very dark place and was (a jerk) to the people I love most,
The rocker took to Facebook on Monday night with his side of the story.
Ozzy, 64, infamously used drugs heavily for decades but got sober in his early 50s.
"Just to set the record straight. Sharon and I are not divorcing. I'm just trying to be a better person," he continued.
"I would like to apologize to Sharon, my family, my friends and my bandmates for my insane behavior during this period..." and my fans."
Sharon, who's reportedly been living separately from Ozzy, hit Cabo San Lucas over the weekend for a getaway.
TMZ reported. One source told the site the couple has taken a break like this in the past but still stayed together.
And after son Jack Osborne tweeted bull on all the rumors over the weekend, daughter Kelly Osborne appeared to be telling the world to get out of her family's face with a Twitter post on Tuesday quoting Benjamin Franklin.
"He that blows the coals in quarrels that he has nothing to do with, has no right to complain if the sparks fly in his face."

Airline computer failure causes more than 700 cancellations
ASSOCIATED PRESS
DALLAS — A key computer system used to run many daily operations at American Airlines failed Tuesday, forcing the nation's third-largest carrier to ground all flights across the United States for several hours and stranding thousands of frustrated passengers at airports and on planes.
Flights already in the air were allowed to continue to their destinations, but planes on the ground from coast to coast could not take off. And travelers could do little to get back in the air until the computer system was restored.
American blamed its reservation system, which is used for much more than booking flights. Airlines commonly rely on such systems to track passengers and bags, monitor who has boarded a plane and to update flight schedules and gate assignments. The computers are also used to file flight plans and to help determine how much fuel to put in an aircraft or which seats should be filled to ensure a plane is properly balanced.
The failure caused cascading delavs and cancellations nationwide.
As of mid-afternoon, American and its American Eagle offshoot canceled more than 700 flights and another 765 flights were delayed, according to tracking service Flight Aware.
The outage began in midmorning and stretched to the afternoon. The systems were fixed by 4:30 p.m., airline spokeswoman Stacey Frantz said.
But even as some flights took
At airports, customers whose flights were canceled couldn't rebook on a later flight. Passengers already at the airport were stuck in long lines or gate areas.
off, the airline expected delays and cancellations to persist for the rest of the day.
"Tensions are high. A lot of people are getting mad. I've seen several yelling at the American
agents, said Julie Burcle, a business-meeting speaker who was stuck at Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport waiting for a flight to Denver. "Nobody can tell us anything."
Terry Anzur.
a TV news consultant from Los Angeles who was also stranded in Dallas, said American Airlines gate employees were doing everything the manual way because their computers were useless.
"No one at the counter can do anything. They can't check people in. The airline is at a dead halt."
Theoretically, an airline could do the same work as the reservation system manually for any one flight. But doing it for hundreds of flights isn't practical.
"No one at the counter can do anything. They can't check people in." Anzur said. "The airline is at a dead halt."
"There was a time when an airline could fly without a reservation system, but those days for the most part are past," said Scott Nason, American's former technology chief and now a consultant.
down, "Most airlines would be pretty much without the ability to fly more than a very limited number of flights," he added.
If their reservation systems go
During nearly 29 years at American, Nason recalled maybe one such failure every several years. While airlines can fix whatever caused the problem, "each time it's something different."
One time it was a possum chewing through a cable in Tulsa, bringing down the whole system. Another time a worker in the airline's data center used a metal tool instead of one that was rubber-coated, causing

that brought down substantia parts of the system, Nason said.
American's problems on Tuesday were reminiscent of what United Airlines passengers endured for several days last year. After merging with Continental, United experienced computer glitches in the combined reservation system. On one day in August, 580 United flights were delayed, and its website was shut down for two hours. Another outage in November delayed 636 flights.
The problems prompted an apology from United Continental Holdings Inc. CEO Jeff Smisek, who acknowledged that the airline had frustrated customers and would need to work to win them back.

Proper etiquette necessary for students late to class
HANNAH BARLING
hbarline@kansan.com
Running late to class is sometimes impossible to avoid, but there are ways to go about it without irritating your teachers.
Boniface Yemba, an economics discussion teacher, has a strict late policy for his students. If someone comes in later than five minutes, he considers them missing half the class. He said his main reason is related to the student's future professional life.
"If the student is trained to be on time every day, he will be a good professional," Yemba said.
Blair Evert, a sophomore from Wichita, said that one of her English teachers from last year was a stickler about being late. A student came about five minutes late into her class and the teacher stopped talking and stared down the student. She never had any problems with being late, but said the teacher had told them if they can't make it on time to drop the class.
Evert said to try and be as quiet as possible when coming in late to
avoid any awkward moments.
Barbara Barnett, associate dean for undergraduate studies in the School of Journalism and Mass Communications, has softened her late policy after hearing from a student that they were afraid to come to class late even if they had a valid reason. She said the reason she is strict about students coming in late is because she is not only trying to teach a subject, but also professional behavior.
Barnett said she usually gets the cliche excuses of missing the bus, oversleeping and weather-related reasons. But one that stood out to her was when she was teaching at another university, a student came in thirty minutes late to a 9 a.m. class. When she asked why, he told her he was playing golf. She said that students should not cause distractions when coming in late.
"Be as invisible as you can possibly be," Barnett said.
Elaine Arbuckle, a sophomore from Lee's Summit, Mo., has never been locked out of a classroom because most of her teachers let it slide if students are running late.
She said that if she's more than 15 minutes late to a 50-minute lecture, she gives up and skips.
"My craziest excuse was that my coffee pot exploded coffee grounds all over my dorm room freshman year," Arbuckle said. "It was bubbling coffee soup."
Regardless of the reason or amount of time you are running late, be sure to be respectful to your teachers. Also, follow these five tips USA Today College gave on the etiquette of running late:
- Enter the room quietly and sit in the back or an aisle seat
- Never walk in front of the professor
- Don't make an announcement that you are late, or any disruptive comments at all
- Make it your responsibility to find out what you missed after class, not asking your neighbor as soon as you sit down
Apologize for being late, but skip the long-winded reason

LITERATURE
Geography professor to discuss his new 'science mystery' novel
"How did we get to be so smart?" That's a question Jerry Dobson began asking, one that propelled him through intense research and eventually to the creation of "Waters of Chaos," a book that combines imaginative theory and scientific fact.
KRISTA MONTGOMERY
kmontgomery@kansan.com
Dobson, a professor of geogra
phy at the University of Kansas and president of the American Geographical Society, originally began the research to satisfy his own curiosity. However, as his theory developed, the scope became so broad he thought
"I wanted to bring out ideas in people that need to be discussed, and this book is a prompt for those ideas."
JERRY DOBSON Author
imagination and science to weave a story that challenges prevailing thought on the evolution of human society throughout the ages. Several real-life experiences were also included, one in which Jeff Dobson, Dobson's twin brother and the co-author of "Waters of Chaos," had to pass through 41 Egyptian military checkpoints in an unsuccessful attempt to reach a geographical site.
it better suited for a novel than for scientific publications.
"I wanted to bring out ideas in people that need to be discussed, and this book is a prompt for those ideas." said Dobson.
It's a story of mankind's evolution. "Waters of Chaos" is a science mystery that traverses the centuries in two parts, beginning more than 10,000 years ago with an ancient saga and ending in a modern quest. The book uses
Dobson is careful to clarify that much of the text is theory, not scientific fact, but prods us to see how changing sea levels have shaped history. For 100,000 years, the sea level as we know it today
Dobson analyzes the possibility that the rise and fall of sea levels could have had a large effect on

mankind and its cultural development. Although agriculture didn't evolve until 16,000 years ago, or art until 37,000 years past, evolutionary theory estimates we've had the same physical brains for approximately 100,000 years. "Why did we possess all of that potential brain space, unused yet capable of so much, if there hadn't been something to cause it to develop?" This is another question Dobson asks, and he arranges his research on paper in a way that favors the development of well-placed questions.
Throughout history, human fate has been inexorably linked to water. Ancient lore from Greece to India speak of floods that would reshape the earth.
"It's not far fetched to ask if these 'waters of chaos' could be a historical analogy to rising sea levels," stated Dobson, who believes that questions like these enable us to dive into real history. "I'm cautious about saying what's fact, but regardless, we have to ask these questions in order to know."
Dobson will speak about his book at the Dole Institute of Politics today from 3 to 4:30 p.m. A book signing and sale will follow the presentation.

tgraff@kansan.com
, TD Ameritrade Park in Omaha.
Neb. was anything but friendly to the lajayhaws Tuesday night. The lajayhaws lost 12-4 to Creighton on the Bluejays' home turf.
The Bluejays junior centerfielder Mike Gerber went 3-for-5 with three RBIs to continue his hot play against the lahawks in a game where conditions were tough for the visiting team.
"We're coming off of a huge weekend where we pitched lights out," Coach Ritch Price said. "Unfortunately, that didn't carry over to the midweek game. It was a really tough day to pitch. Not making excuses for our guys, but it just kind of snowballed for us after we got behind."
- The Jayhawks opened the scoring with two runs in the first inning off of sophomore left-fielder Michael Suiter's RBI single and senior first baseman Alex DeLefon's RBI double.
From there the Bluejays took over posting three runs in the bottom of the first, one in the second and three more in both the sixth and seventh innings. Creighton's 12 total runs on 15 hits are its highest total in over a month.
Kansas senior shortstop Kevin Kuntz tied the game for Kansas in the fourth on a two-run, two-out single through the right side of the infield. Although Kuntz finished with a hit and two RBIs, he still struggled at the plate.
The senior is making no excuses.
"It really didn't affect that much," Kunzt said. "A cold game like this, you know, it's a little tougher, but I don't think it really played a factor for the most part. It's one of those games that things just didn't go our way."
DeLeon led Kansas with a two-for-four line, with one RBI. Sophomore shortstop Justin Protacio drew three walks in the game, good for a team-high 31 on the season.
"It'll definitely be good to get one more game in tomorrow at home before we go on the road to Texas Tech," Kuntz said. "We just have to flush it and move on. Tomorrow's a new day so we just have to move on."
Kansas has a quick turnaround ahead as it take on Ottawa at Hoglund Ballpark at 6:30 p.m. Wednesday night.

Softball game canceled due to rain forecast
The softball game against No. 21 Nebraska on Wednesday has been canceled because of impending inclement weather in Lincoln.
The game was scheduled for Wednesday at 6 p.m. at Bowlin Field, but the first meeting between the
schools as nonconference opponents was canceled Tuesday afternoon because of a forecast in Lincoln calling for rain and thunder throughout the day.
Inclement weather has prevented Kansas from playing a midweek game this season. The Jayhawks' doubleheader against Missouri State on March 21 was canceled because of snow.
The Jayhawks return to action this weekend when they take on the Oklahoma State Cowboys in Stillwater, Okla., for a three-game series. The first game of the weekend is on Friday at 5:30 p.m., while Saturday and Sunday's games are both scheduled for noon.

Sophomore middle distance runner Dalen Fink passes the baton to his teammate sophomore distance runner Brendan Soucie to compete in the third leg of the Men's Distance Medley Friday afternoon at the 85 Kansas Relays at Memorial Stadium. Kansas won with a time of 10:18.21.
SATURDAY:
If you like a quick race that will finish in under a minute, the 4x100 meter race is for you. The finals of this race will feature some of the fastest times in the nation on both the men's and women's side. Don't be surprised to see the Kansas men's team — Shawn Smith, Michael Hester, DeMario Johnson and Kyle Clemons — run in the finals. The team ran in 41.17 seconds last weekend in Arkansas. The Kansas women's team is just as impressive, featuring Andrea Geubelle, Sydney Conley, Denesha Morris and Diamond Dixon. Its winning time of 44.92 last weekend in Arkansas puts the team in a great position to run in the finals this weekend. The 4x100 relays are set for Saturday at 12:25 p.m. at Memorial Stadium.
DIAMOND RUNS WITH THE BEST
the nation. The steeplechase is set to start at 5:25 p.m. Friday, followed by the 4-mile relay at 6 p.m. Both events will take place at Memorial Stadium.
RELAYS FROM PAGE 12
The Kansas Relays features high school, collegiate and professional athletes all in one meet. The elite division features a number of athletes
that have competed in the Olympics. Diamond Dixon, the University's own Olympian, will run in the elite division of the open 400 Meter Dash Invitational, rather than the collegiate division. The junior, who helped Team USA win the gold medal at the London Olympics, will run against some of the best competition in the world this weekend. The 400 Meter Dash Invitational is a must-see event on Saturday at 2:45 p.m. at Memorial Stadium.
MILE RUNNERS HOPE TO BREAK RECORD
The Glen Cunningham Mile is Saturday afternoon and will feature some of the fastest athletes in the world, including Olympians Leo Manzano and Nick Symmonds. Manzano, who won the silver medal at the London Olympics, and the rest of the crew will attempt to break Jim Ryun's 36-year-old Relays record which stands at 3 minutes and 54.7 seconds. Kansas junior Josh Munsch will also compete in this elite race as well. The Jayhawk ran his personal best 1500m time of 3:43.03 earlier this year. He will look to become the third man in Kansas history to break the 4-minute mile barrier. The Glen Cunningham Mile takes place at 4:25 p.m. Saturday at Memorial Stadium.

Thanks for telling us about the law to have our buried utility lines marked before we dig. I sure wouldn't want to be responsible for expensive repairs or hurting anybody. - Jared told us
WOMEN'S TRACK AND FIELD LOOKS TO STAY ON TOP
The Kansas women's team is ranked No. 1 in the nation, according to the U.S. Track & Field and Cross Country Coaches Association, for the fourth straight week. The women will be running, jumping, throwing and vaulting in a number of events worthy of checking out. After capturing a Big 12 indoor conference championship, they look to have even more success in the outdoor season. Their weekend will culminate on the track Saturday evening in the 4x400 relay. The team of Morris, Dixon, Taylor Washington and Paris Daniels ran its best time of the year earlier this month when they crossed the line in 3:32.26, which was the third fastest time in the nation to date. The 4x400 will be the finale of the Kansas Relays and is set for Saturday evening at 5 p.m. at Memorial Stadium.

Masters: the year's best sporting event
THE MORNING BREW
E
Every year, I watch the Masters and am reminded of what perfection is like. It's an event practically hosted by heaven and run in an according manner. "Patron" may as well be a title of royalty for tournament goers because they are spoiled with the splendors of tournament drama, free parking and cheap food, all while walking around Augusta National, which could be considered the largest botanical garden in the world.
By Chris Hybl
chybl@kansan.com
But is it the year's best sporting event?
But if the year is best season No, but it's a tie. The NCAA basketball tournament can always match the same drama, and with the tournaments within two weeks of each other, we are a spoiled population. The two events stick out from other sports' best events - and for good reason.
College football is right up there with the NFL for most popular league in America. College football has perhaps the most potential for an exciting postseason, but a one-game postseason is an atrocity. How the BCS could lay stagnant on this issue for so long is baffling, and a four-team playoff won't do much to fix this issue either. It should be a minimum
or 16 teams. How do you expect me to get caught up in meaningless bowl games with titles ranging from the Famous Idaho Potato Bowl to the Beef 'O' Brady's Bowl Spread the games out over December and January. The 4-6 week time period is enough to fit a field of 16, and save your breath because fatigue is a terrible argument. How many games will they play in the NFL?
I'll hear an argument for the NFL Playoffs to be at the top of the list as an event, but I get confused as to whether I'm watching new commercials with football interruptions or the other way around. The Masters has rather limited commercial interruption, while
the NCAA tournament is a channel-changing frenzy with loads of action to start the tournament. Some people have a thing for watching (and listening) to nerds lock lips with Kate Upton, but I prefer the other kind of action.
I'll also hear an argument for the NBA Playoff. The most athletic combination of human beings in the world playing like it means something – noted only because the same intensity isn't found anywhere in the regular season. Chill out, Kobe fans. But the two months it takes to decide a winner makes it more eligible as a TV series rather than a tournament.
The World Series can get exciting...can. As much as some of us want to say we love baseball to confirm our American identity, please answer my question honestly. When was the last time, on television, in one sitting, that you watched the first five innings of a baseball game straight?
KU
The World Cup should be on the topp five list, but a lack of American following and an annoying vuvuzela impression left on viewers from the last World Cup certainly doesn't help the tournament's
chances. I would agree with the statement that it's the best tournament in the world, but definitely not stateside.
And just to cover the spectrum of sports and please a northern readership, many viewers see televised hockey as an eye exam rather than what it really is.
Golf is boring. Yes, I bet some of you had one hell of a Sunday afternoon nap, but if you tuned into to any of the recent Masters tournaments, you know the event doesn't compromise on drama. If you are stubborn and hate golf, and won't acknowledge it as exciting, just look at the tournament as another addition to Disney's "Earth" documentaries, because Augusta National is well worth the same attention.

To Be Announced
PITCHING
Drew Morovick has been the fifth starter in Kansas' starting rotation. When Kansas adds an extra game, Morovick has been the go-to guy for the lajayhows. Expect Morovick to pitch at least four or five innings before letting the relievers take over.
HITTING
Tucker Tharp's season took a turn after a clutch series against the Longhorn. Tharp came through with plays when the Jayhawks needed them the most in a very close battle against Texas.
FIELDING
After struggling in fielding for most of the season, Kansas only committed one in the series against Texas. The Jayhawks' only error came in the first game and they were free of errors the rest of the weekend. Kansas hopes to continue to carry that over while playing at Hoglund Ballpark.
PITCHING
Senior right hander Cole Meeks leads the Braves pitching staff with a 4-4 record and a 4.34 ERA in 10 appearances. The Braves have a 5.34 ERA on the season. Look to see several Braves pitchers in the team. Coach Cory Blaime should give several pitchers the opportunity to take the mound in Hogland Ballpark.
HITTING
The Braves have struggled at the plate this season with a .271 average and 135 runs on the season in NAIA play. The Braves make the trip to Lawrence after the Jayhawks scheduled them to fill in for the cancellation of game two in against Iowa in Iowa City. Senior outfielder Dustin Balmier leads the lineup with a .315 average, 34 hits and 10 RBIs.
FIELDING
The Braves are a sloppy defensive squad with 67 errors and a fielding percentage hovering slightly below 94 percent. Sophomore catcher Kaylem Quinn leads the Braves in the field with a .978 fielding percentage and two errors behind the plate. The Braves will have plenty of opportunity to improve their game in the field as the Jayhawks look to continue hitting the ball to all fields.

Jayhawks look to overcome loss in four upcoming games
Before facing Texas in a three-game series this past weekend, Kansas had 35 errors in 33 games this season. In the series against the Longhorns, the Jayhawks only committed one error, which came Friday night. The Jayhawks' near-perfect fielding this past weekend allowed them to pick up a series victory.

If you make an error one day, you've got to forget it and flush it," senior third baseman Jordan Dreiling said. "It's baseball. You just go out the next day with a brand new attitude toward it. I think that helped us, playing five games per week and getting into the rhythm defensively."
With a 7-5 conference record, winning two consecutive conference series and standing at fourth place in a competitive Big 12, the Jayhawks have a lot of energy and motivation and look to make more noise in upcoming conference battles.
Kansas will play five games in a week for the second week in a row, and the Jayhawks have five games scheduled next week to remain active.

Kansas completed one game last night and have another tonight before traveling to Lubbock, Texas for three games. Dreiling said the non-conference mid-week games will still be approached as if they were Big 12 games.

Kansas defeated Texas twice and lost once in the conference face off this past weekend as each game was decided by one run. In a conference where pitchers hold the key to wins, Morovick knows he and his fellow pitchers have to keep playing hard in order to help the team succeed.
"Baseball's becoming a pitcher's sport," Morovick said. "And when you can get to a pitcher, like we did Friday, and put up six runs on a guy and win it in the 12th inning with the sevent run, that's pretty good. When you get to a pitcher, you've got to just keep pounding away at them and just got to come through."

NATIONAL TRAGEDY
LIVING THROUGH TERROR
Kansas City native recounts experience of Boston Marathon bombing
By Mike Vernon
mvernon@kansan.com
At 1:34 p.m., Greg Hall crossed the finish line at the Boston Marathon. He had just completed a personal best on the course, finishing in three hours and 28 minutes.
When the 58-year-old Kansas Citian was done — before he wanted water or juice, or a fresh set of clothes — he walked back toward that finish line and snapped a picture.
The shot showed hundreds, if not thousands of people standing at the event's end. Spectators look exhausted and fans are blurred together on the now infamous sidewalks.
"It's so crazy now to think of that picture," Hall said. "It shows people finishing and being tired, which is what it should look like at the finish line of the Boston Marathon. Not the carnage and smoke and all the after effects of the violence."
On Monday afternoon just after 2:50, an unthinkable act struck an untouchable event.
The story of America's heroes were born in Boston.
The United States stopped and its eyes turned to Boston — America's town. The place where something as simple as tea became a symbol and the country found its identity.
When the bombs exploded, Hall was five or six blocks down the road. He just retrieved his clothes and sat on the pavement eating a bag of potato chips. He didn't hear the blast.
Here in Lawrence, texts and phone calls went back and forth between students and loved ones. The blasts shook everyone. Including Hall's wife and sons, who were back home in Kansas City.
"We just got word that there had been an explosion," Hall said. "You immediately go into denial. We didn't understand until later on.
"Then the city changed."
--base, punched in "Kansas City," "Overland Park," and local area codes to find the runners near him. He came up with a list that had around 125 names.
Over a month before the race, the Boston Marathon sends an update to its runners. Part of that update includes a database of those in the race. That's how Greg Hall got the idea.
He wanted to meet the other Kansas City marathoners that qualified for Boston.
So he played with the database, punched in "Kansas City," "Overland Park," and local area codes to find the runners near him. He came up with a list that had around 125 names.
He mailed those names, used social networking and his own popular blog website to contact those runners.

anyway.

He held an event, a pasta buffet to carbo-load, at Johnny Cascone's in Overland Park. More than 40 runners came, and with their guests, 70 people total.
"I didn't know if anyone would say, 'Screw that, I'm not going to meet a bunch of strangers,'" Hall said. "Literally that's what we all were."
Each would return with a story far more substantial than they could imagine.
And Hall blogged about the event on GregHallKC.com, where he shared the personal stories of 14 strangers that prepared for the most grueling few hours of their lives.
This is what the Boston Marathon represents. People who don't know each other coming together for one mission, one goal of personal success.
Going to Boston, as Hall likes to simply put it, is a big deal.
"It's like the said. "You're going to Boston to run the Marathon. And that made it special."
"It's like the golden ticket," he

Greg Hall went back toward the incident Monday afternoon. He wasn't sure if America had caught on, and with Twitter, he had an opportunity to broadcast both the tragedy and the bravery.

That's where the heroes were seen.
"It made you feel good about being an American."
"These guys were stern." Hall said. "But they were understanding of human feelings. They knew they were dealing with people in tremendous shock. They were just so professional.

Police officers, soldiers and bystanders ran into the smoke without flinching to try to save lives. To help their fellow humans.
There's little question that these heroes weren't sure what exactly had happened, if more danger laid under cowardess cover.
"Even in the backdrop of a terrorist attack people can treat strangers with great empathy and care. On the other side, they can blow up 8-year-old kids."
It didn't matter to those who helped. To those who risked never talking to loved ones again to help someone else reach theirs.
There are sick people in this world. People who make your eyes water and stomachs turn to knots.

But those few demented are far outnumbered by the those that are good. By those that mean well. By those who just want to live good lives.
"The people of Boston were just incredible," Hall said. "They were inviting people into their homes, standing on the corner and beckoning people in."

"Even in the backdrop of a terrorist attack people can treat strangers with great empathy and care," Hall said. "On the other side, they can blow up 8-year-old kids."
But there is still much sorrow to soak in.
"They later said it was a controlled blast," Hall said. "But none of the police acted like they knew it was controlled. They just went into first alert, screaming and yelling at
The explosion took place less than one block away.
He didn't hear the first two blasts, but he sure heard the third. The controlled one conducted by Boston bomb squad.
--people that it's not safe."
Greg Hall's eyes watched frightened patrons flee. He watched mothers grab their crying children to leave the scene.
Thirty minutes later, Hall sat in a cafe charging his phone. Police busted in the building and called for everyone to get out.
These scenes took place across Boston on Monday, for the city wasn't safe. At least, it didn't feel that way.
"Boom," Hall said. "Everybody got up and just ran. (When) you see a bunch of guys come in with assault rifles and tell you to get out, there's no argument going on."
Scenes like this made it hard for Hall to sleep that fateful Monday evening. Typically, the exhaustion of running a marathon could put any person into a night-long coma. There was nothing typical about Monday.
While laying in bed sleepless, Hall only had one image in his mind. That he was on an airplane headed back home, buckling his seatbelt and letting out a sigh of drastic proportions.
On Tuesday, Greg Hall made it to the airport. There he saw a number of familiar faces flying back home. People from the lunch a week before.
He was hugging those strangers that suddenly didn't seem so strange.
"It was really emotional," he said. "Here's people that hadn't known each other for more than a week, but really glad to see each other still around."
They were united by the common bond that is the Boston Marathon.
Stories were shared, but in brevity. Everyone was there. Everyone lived it. There was no need to review the terror.
And then they took off. Headed home. A completed dream from Hall's sleepless night.
"It's good to be back," Hall said.
"Normalcy is back. Dad's here."

TRACK AND FIELD
COLIN WRIGHT cwright@kansan.com
The Kansas Relays, which date back to 1923, brings some of the best track and field athletes from Kansas and around the world to Lawrence this weekend. Memorial Stadium and the Douglas County Fairgrounds will host the storied event that offers a number of storylines. While the baseball, softball and soccer teams play on the

road this weekend, this is your best chance to check out what the track and field teams have to offer. It is the biggest regular season meet of the year for the Jayhawks. Here are a few things to watch for.
WEDNESDAY:
Men's shot put has taken place downtown at 8th and Massachusetts Street the last two years, but because of inclement weather in the forecast,
it has been moved to the Douglas County Fairgrounds. It's one of the most unique events in the world. The shot put will feature returning champion Reese Hoffa, who picked up a bronze medal at the 2012 London Olympics, as well as Christian Cantwell, who won the silver medal at the 2008 Beijing Olympics. The event has gone over so well the past two years that ESPN3 will air it live both online and on mobile devices.
THURSDAY:
The event is Wednesday at 6 p.m. at the Douglas County Fairgrounds, located at 2110 Harper St. in Lawrence.
Similar to the men's shot put, the women's long Jump, previously located on Massachusetts Street, will also be moved to the Douglas County Fairgrounds because of potential rain and strong winds. Janay DeLo-

ach, last year's winner, will return in 2013 as well as a slew of other top athletes. The event will also feature live music and an appearance by everyone's favorite mascot. Admission is free to both Wednesday and Thursday night events at the Fairgrounds. The event is Thursday at 6 p.m.
Memorial Stadium is the place to be on Friday. The evening session will feature the 3,000 meter men's and women's steepechase, followed by the 4-mile relay. There will be a number of preliminary races on Friday. The finals of the men's and women's 4x1600 meter relay will highlight the top college teams in

Lawrence Arts Center
TYLER ROSTE/KANSAN
A mother and her son enter the Lawrence Arts Center on New Hampshire Street in downtown Lawrence. Lawrence is a finalist to receive a grant between $150,000 and $500,000 to become an Art District.

The gallery at the Art and Design building on campus displays work by the school's illustration majors. Lawrence is a finalist to receive a large grant to become an Art District.
CREATIVE COMMUNITY
EMILY DONOVAN edonovan@kansan.com
Considering the popularity of Final Fridays, locals can easily recognize the community support for the arts in Lawrence. The Lawrence Arts Center just has to prove it to ArtPlace, a collaboration of national and regional foundations and banks, to win a creative placemaking grant.
"ArtPlace looks for ways they can help communities make the most of this for the purpose of increasing cultural tourism, increasing support for artists and including neighborhoods," said Susan Tate, the Executive Director of Lawrence Arts Center.
As Lawrence is home to an array of museums that educate children, like the Lawrence Arts Center and the Warehouse block, the city's flourishing arts scene is a well-supported effort. Having coordinated with local busi-
neses, non-profit organizations and Lawrence citizens for the past year, Tate's work to make Lawrence a cultural destination is paying off.
In February, the city commissioners agreed to formally designate.78 square miles of Lawrence as a cultural district. It is bounded by the Kansas River, 15th Street, Vermont and the Burroughs Creek Trail. This alone, Tate said, is significant — especially when applications to grants like Art-Place's asks how a planned project fits into the larger community.
"This matters to grantmakers," Tate said. "When an artist or an art agency applies for a grant, they're interested in knowing that they're supporting something that is bigger than just the one agency"
With both undergraduate and graduate students interning at local, visual arts galleries, teaching at local museums and performing
and exhibiting downtown, the University is able to take advantage of the cultural opportunities offered throughout the city.
"The designation of Lawrence as a cultural district will only further those opportunities," said Elizabeth Kowalchuk, Associate Dean of the School of the Arts at the University.
Efforts like the Lawrence Arts Center's application for the Art-Place grant further strengthens and binds together artists. It also creates even more opportunities for University students to hone their craft in the community, Kowalchuk said.
"Lawrence is a very art-oriented community," Kowalchuk said. "It's one of a handful of similar communities across the country that have a major research institution and are very strong in the arts."
Now, Lawrence is one of 105 national finalists for the Art-
Place grant, which has awarded around 40 finalists grants between $150,000 and $500,000 in years past.
With funding from ArtPlace, the Lawrence Arts Center proposal would commission Sans façon, a duo of French architect Charles Blanc and British sculptor Tristan Surtees, for a public art project. When Blanc and Surtees take an interest in a city, Tate said, they learn about the community and design their projects to highlight its values.
"They have experience bringing different parts of the community together to do something that entities cannot do on their own." Tate said. "They put art at the forefront of city planning and cultural development."
ArtPlace is expected to notify grant winners in May.

"If I want pizza, I will always compare the specials and coupons for the local pizza places," Bush said. "If I want ice cream, I will look for BOGO deals. If I want a quick delivery or take-out meal, I will try to be as savvy as possible."
When Bush doesn't have time to make her own meal, she relies on the Internet to scope out which restaurants in town have the best specials. For Bush, it's not just about cheap dining; it's also about getting a good meal.
Campusspecial.com is a website that partners with restaurants located in cities around
"Fuzzy's Tacos had a
buy-one-get-one deal that was awesome, and Pepperjax had some good deals too. I used my coupons to get a lot of pizzas," Patton said.
Patton says that although many students might only glance at their coupon booklet once or twice during the first couple of weeks of a new semester, it is worth keeping around if you plan on eating out.
Pizza Shuttle, a popular pizza restaurant, sells their "2-fer" (two ten-inch pizzas with two toppings on each with two drinks) for $11.25 on their regular menu. The same "2-fer" through Campus Special is

Campus Special also offers free food just for ordering through the website. If you want to score a free order of igunda Dip from the Salty Iguana, all you have to do is purchase two entrees through Campus Special.
Many restaurants that are not listed on the website offer their own cheap food and drink specials in the hopes of attracting Lawrence's large student population.
Henry T's on 6th Street has daily lunch and dinner specials. Jefferson's on Massachusetts street serves $0.35 wings every Wednesday. Saints, a newer bar and grill on Iowa Street, has been utilizing its Facebook page to post its daily food and drink specials.
For restaurants looking to make a profit in a college town, sometimes the best option is to offer good meals at a good price.

Dole hosts debate about gun control on campus
Patricia Stoneking, the president of the Kansas State Rifle Association (KSRA), reacts to Allen Rostron, a law professor at the University of Missouri, on the topic of regulated gun control Wednesday night at the Gun Control: Freedom vs Safety debate inside the Robert J. Dole Institute of Politics. The event was put on by the Dole Institute of Politics Student Advisory Board and covered various issues in gun control along with a Q&A session.

With concealed carry permits on campus approved by the Kansas legislature this past Tuesday, students learned more about gun policy issues in a debate hosted at The Dole Institute of Politics Wednesday evening. The debate between Patricia Stoneking, President of the Kansas State Rifle Association, and Allen Rostron, professor of law at the University of Missouri - Kansas City, addressed different sides of the arguments for and against gun control.
"If your fellow students are carrying guns, you're going to want to be informed about the different rights and restrictions that go along with that privilege," said Lexie Clark, coordinator of the Student Advisory Board for the Dole Institute. Clark, a senior from Fort Collins, Colo., moderated the debate.
While Clark is personally in favor of gun advocacy, she found Rostron's representation of gun control position an example of reaching middle ground between the two sides.
"To some extent, these issues do turn on the extent to how people feel about the government," Rostron said. "Gun rights are very strongly protected, and I just don't see we are on the verge of confiscation if we were to have a gun registration system."
Stoneking pointed to the historical example of gun registration and confiscation in Hitler's Germany as a reason to protect gun rights, and advocated more attention be applied to the mental health community.
"Bad people do bad things, and
mentally ill people do bad things." Stoneking said. "The tool that they use is not what's doing something bad. It is the person who's doing something bad."
"We've heard over and over again at colleges where they've had violence is these students say, 'if only I had a gun.' Stoneking.
While Stoneking said concealed carry on campus cannot be proven to improve campus safety due to most university campus's not yet
allowing permits, she did point to Utah's college campuses, which do allow conceal carry permits, have had no problems.
looked at the issue of conceal carry on campus, but that a person's perspective on the issue largely depends on their preconceived attitude.
"All that statistical evidence that's been generated about guns never changes anyone's mind." Rostron said of one study analyzing how
Rostron said few studies have
statistics affect a person's view on gun control. "Instead, people's attitudes about guns are very heavily driven by some fundamental underlying views that they have about the role of government in relationship between people and society."

She said she drove over to see what was happening, and that when she got out of her car two boys ran toward her screaming that the authorities told them to leave because the plant was going to explode. She said she drove about a block before the blast happened.
The blast at the plant in West, a community north of Waco, happened shortly before 8 p.m. and could be heard as far away as Waxahachie, 45 miles north of West.

She drove 10 blocks and called her husband and asked him to come get her. When they got to their home about 2 miles south of town, her husband told her what he'd seen: a huge fireball that rose like "a mushroom cloud."
More than two hours after the blast, there were still fires smoldering in what was left of the plant and others burning in nearby buildings. In aerial footage from Dallas' NBC affiliate, WDFW, dozens of emergency vehicles could be seen amassed at the scene. Entry into West was slow-going, as the roads were jammed with emergency vehicles rushing
in to help out.
Authorities set up a staging area on the local high school's football field, which was lit up with floodlights. Ambulances and several dozen injured people could be seen being taken away or seated in wheelchairs as they are treated and await transport.

STATE POLITIC
Government choices overshadow state's allure
Kansas, I love you, but you're bringing me down. Your ridiculous policy proposals, racism and embracement of the extremism that shearing apart the rest of the country aren't making you the easiest state to call home.
I was a stone's throw away from being born a die-hard republican. Maybe something in my DNA would have turned me to a blue-dog or some sort of bastardized, liberal defector. In a state like Kansas though, that's a shot in the dark. I'd be in denial if I didn't think my family's moderate liberal views didn't shape mine.
Living in an oasis of liberalism like Lawrence has coddled me. It's convenient not having to grease Obama signs during election season so that people won't uproot them. Walking up to your car and not having bumper stickers
scraped halfway off is a great perk, but I've become pampered. It's as if Brownback doesn't exist here and he's just the Wicked Witch of the Western side of Kansas).
It's disappointing, even frustrating, that when I mention that I'm from Kansas to anyone, all I get are grins and questions about the cornfield and evolution. Kansas, the stunts you've pulled recently aren't helping that reputation of bible-thumping hicks. It seems like you aren't even trying.
By Wil Kenney
wkenney@kansan.com
The Salina Journal reported on Saline County Commissioner Jim Gile, who used the phrase "nigger-riggings" candidly in a meeting earlier this month. He then tried to excuse it saying he wasn't prejudiced because he had, "built Habitat homes for colored people."
the Wichita Eagle reported that the Kansas Supreme Court ruled the education funding of $3,838
a student unconstitutionally low. Some conservative legislators have suggested an amendment to the constitution to continue to drastically underfund education. While watching education funding dip to new lows, Governor Brownback intends on slashing the income tax for the second time.
And then there's House Bill No. 2366, an otherwise innocent number, but probably the single most ridiculous piece of legislation I've ever seen. This out-classes even the racist policy relics from the
civil war. This bill would illegalize using "public funds to promote or implement sustainable development."
Keep in mind that this is just a proposition and it never even made it onto the docket for deliberation. While it won't ever see the light of day, it does reflect an attitude in Kansas' politics that anything even vaguely in public interest is a cog in the socialist takeover machine and must be destroyed.
This flurry of news could each be mistaken for stories in The Onion, and that's only in the past few months.
for the liberal Californian who's picked Kansas for their undergrad; it must be like living on an inhospitable, far-right alien planet.
I think for the entry-level college student who is just now finding their liberal side, it's easy to start disliking the Sunflower state. I mean the weather's decided by an eight ball, and so much as thinking about getting an abortion can prompt a citizens arrest. I feel bad
Even so, I won't give up on this flatter-than-a-pancake Heartland that I call home. All of this absurd extremism is a recent development that rushed to the fore on the coattails of the Tea Party. It's easy to forget that Jayhawkers once trod these plains, that Brown v. Board of Education was decided within these borders, and that this was once the home of progressive center-right politics.
I'll stick it out and hope that this is just a phase, like being really in all things French. I still love you, Kansas, but you're making it harder to call you home every day.

MEDIA
ESPN, sports media pundits criticized for Boston coverage
The shockwaves from the Boston Marathon bombing are still being felt by our collective nation as we try to not only find out who's responsible, but to also ask the question, "Why?". Every news outlet is all over this story, and for good reason, but a unique aspect of journalism — in particular sports journalism — has been brought to the forefront of news reporting and, more importantly, where sports reporting fits in.
By Stéphane Roque
sroque@tansan.com
Sports website Deadspin came out with a story Tuesday describing a contingent of people – I'll refer to them as the "stick-to-sparters" – complaining about sports media outlets and its involvement with the reporting of the Boston Marathon bombing. Many took to Twitter to unleash their frustrations with what they described as sports media outlets reporting on an issue that was way out of its league. The tweets ranged from frustration with sports outlets like ESPN to general disbelief that sports commentators would dabble in hard news. Here are some of the tweets that can be found in the Deadspin story:
"#bobcostas stick to sports
"Come on ESPN I know this is a tragic event but that's what CNN is for. Can you please stick to sports news," tweeted by @ ailasanda18.
because your politics are awful," tweeted by @Jacksovertens.
The debate will rage on concerning the legitimacy of sports media outlets' relevance to sensitive domestic issues like terrorism, but bear in mind one glaring fact of this particular matter – the Boston Marathon is a sporting event. While I agree that this is a rare case in which an act of terrorism occurred at an American sporting event, I don't see why sports journalists – those with the exact same academic training as many within primarily news oriented outlets – should be kept out of the reporting circle, especially when the story centers around a sporting event.
When it comes to sports personalities giving a particular political opinion after an event like the Boston Marathon bombing, I concur with the "stick-to-sporters." I view someone like Bob Costas as a powerful national figure, not just for his sports input but also his persistent
unearthing of the many repulsive activities that take place within the realm of sports. But that's just the thing – he's an investigative guru within a particular field. Sure, he's had times where he's commented on gun control and race issues at the Masters. But it's a dangerous proposition for sports personalities to hide behind their respective shields (ESPN, NBC Sports, etc.) for opinionated protection. Tensions are high and people are looking for any excuse to blame someone or something, so it's probably best to pay respects to the families affected by the tragedy and continue focusing on sports.
To me, personal political commentary coming from sports personalities in wake of events like the Boston Marathon bombing – or any other act of terrorism on U.S. soil – comes off as distasteful and inappropriate. This is where I feel the line should be drawn – when it comes to personal opinion, it's best for sports personalities to voice that "off air". But when it comes to reporting, coverage of the Boston Marathon bombing should be fair game for sports and news media outlets alike.

Bourdain still on top with new show
UDK
When Anthony Bourdain left the Travel Channel
Travel Channel and joined up with CNN to do "Anthony Bourdain: Parts Unknown," I was excited and concerned. I loved Travel Channel's "Anthony Bourdain: No Reservations," and I was scared CNN wouldn't be able to do the show justice.
"No Reservations" had the food, the history and the culture to keep me coming back, and the storytelling kept me enthralled every episode. The videography? Left me drooling for chicken curry ('I'm a vegetarian, so that is impressive) and craveting to visit the most obscure of places. "No Reservations" made me love food and planted a seed of desire in my soul to do international journalism.
The one constant was Bourdain, who I knew would be as snarky, witty and philosophical as ever. I honestly don't think the apocalypse would faze the notoriously sassy chef and writer. But would the show still push all the right buttons for viewers?
Sure, CNN has the resources and contacts to get Bourdain and his crew into places the Travel Channel couldn't. Dangerous places like Libya and Myanmar. Places that Americans don't know about — that is the attraction of his new show.
But when I turned the channel to CNN to watch the first episode of "Parts Unknown," I wasn't convinced they could pull it off.
I was pleasantly surprised. Anthony's trip to Myanmar illustrated everything I loved about "No Reservations": delicious food, narrative storytelling, and

stunning images of the country. It was awesome.I didn't notice any significant difference in the show, and I'm relieved.
Future episodes will feature places like Morocco, Libya, Peru and Colombia. But the show will also cover Los Angeles, and I'm hoping they will be able to spin it in a new angle. I've seen enough travel shows on Los Angeles to create one on my own, so they are really going to need to step it up.
If "Parts Unknown" is going to be as successful as "No Reservations," they are going to have to focus on the places no one has done, or at least, not done correctly.
I'm most excited for the Libya episode, which will air May 5. The area is in turmoil, and I can't believe they managed to pull off filming there. Again, a positive of working with CNN now.
If "Parts Unknown" improves on "No Reservations" legacy, they will keep their loyal following of chefs, travel junkies and food lovers. Keep inspiring people to travel, "Parts Unknown," and you will have a successful show.

Parts Unknown," on Sundays at 8

Psychodramatic 'Trance' is less than spellbinding
Could a work of art ever be worth more than a human life?
That's the diabolically intriguing question posed by "Trance," a style-conscious psychdrama in which a shimmering puzzle box artifice masks the densely plotted machinations of the fairly standard bait-and-switch crime thriller. Danny Boyle's newest film desperately wants to scale the cerebral heights of "Inception" and "Stir of Echoes" but instead succumbs to the laborious contortions of its own pretzel logic, leaving the viewer detached and exasperated by the time the end credits roll.
The film opens inside a Sotheby's like auction house in London, where Francisco Goya notoriously unsettling 1798 oil canvas "Witches in the Air" is being auctioned off for the princely sum of $27 million. Before the final bid can be placed, a group of thvees storm the room in a hail of tear gas. In the ensuing chaos, Simon (James McAvoy), the house's security specialist, grabs the painting and heads for an underground bunker, where he is knocked unconscious by Franck (Vincent Cassel), the black market art dealer who planned the robbery.
Desperate to recover the painting and convinced that Simon's injuries have resulted in short-term memory loss, Franck and his crew force the young man to attend hypnotherapy sessions with Dr. Elizabeth Lamb (Rosario Dawson), who quickly reveals her

This was supposed to be Boyle's return to his urban-maniacial roots, an effort to rekindle the gritty, quicksilver kineticism he brought to early triumphs like "Trainspotting" and "28 Days Later," the latter of which practically resuscited the now-flowrishing zombie sub-genre. The imagery on display in "Trance" is suitably hypnotic, a fitful blend of translucent oranges and blues underscored by the twitchy, funk-laden palpitations of a soundtrack populated by the likes of UNLE and Moby. Yet the script, co-written by Joe Ahearne and Boyle's to-screen writer John Hodge, exhibits all the grasping excesses of a first draft in search of an uncertain payoff.

The actors do their best to elevate the anemic material. McAvoy has a surprisingly potent chemistry with Dawson, and their scenes together crackle with a self-contained erotic charge. Even though
with its loopy, convulsive cinematography and vivid fantasy sequences, "Trance" continues to fascinate on a stylistic level long after its narrative potential has collapsed under the weight of its own plot holes and paradoxes. Boyle, whose repertoire has expanded considerably since helming the Olympics' opening ceremonies and reimagining Mary Shelley's "Frankenstein" as an ambitious stage play where the actors playing the doctor and the Monster (Benedict Cumberbatch and Johnny Lee Miller) swapped roles every night, has an undeniable flair for capturing the grace notes in the visual cacophony of human movement. With a better script, "Trance" might have been a worthy addition to his impressively eclectic filmography. Instead it remains little more than a gorgeously mounted migraine.
she's saddled with an unseemly amount of expositional dialogue, Dawson manages to lend Dr. Lamb an air of fiercely repressed tragedy, Cassel, the expressive French actor best known to state-side audiences as the lascivious ballet teacher in "Black Swan," gives the finest performance of the movie as the cunning, duplicitous Franck, who in lesser hands would have been played as a token thug.

Love Garden Sounds to celebrate Record Store Day
LYNDSEY HAVENS

Record Store Day has quickly caught on as a celebration that thousands choose to be a part of. Taking place on the third Saturday of April each year, Record Store Day falls on this coming Saturday, April 20.

Love Garden Sounds, 822 Massachusetts St., will host an event for Record Store Day, which is an annual holiday celebrating locally owned music stores.
The official website for the "holiday" eloquently states that the day simply intends for independently owned record stores to come together with artists and fans to celebrate the art of music.
Since its launch in 2007, Record Store Day has grown over the years to involve more than 700 independently owned record stores in the U.S. and Lawrence's local Love Garden Sounds. 822 Massachusetts St., is one of them.

Kelly Corcoran,
manager of Love
Garden, has been

will be a success. Love Garden has been an active participant from the start. "It was a low stakes affair at first, and now it's grown into a pretty big deal," he said.
Love Garden sees around 2,000 people throughout the entirety of the day. Last year, one anxious guy arrived at the store at 2:30 a.m. to reserve his first place spot in line. The line starts to form at 6 a.m. and by 9 a.m., most people are in line.
"We've developed a pretty assiduous formula to keep people pretty limited to what they can get, though," Corcoran said. "Everyone in line can only get five items and they can't get duplicates. In theory, the Record Store Day stuff is readily available to everyone."
Corcoran sent out a list to Love Garden's email subscribers last Friday announcing all the specialty items and promotions that the store will have to offer. A Facebook page has also been created for the event. Corcoran explained that he is updating the page daily as he checks new items in. He is also using the Facebook page to house accurate information

in one place and address any questions regarding the day.
One question on the minds of many customers is if there will be a special performance or appearance by a musical guest on the day
of the event. Corcoran confirmed that although there will be none, the decision was made with good intentions. "It's so bananas on this day that I don't see the point of having bands play. It's really driven by people wanting this limited, exclusive stuff," he said. "I also feel like it's derogatory to the bands to have to play on that day. The band gets better publicity if they can play on their own. All in all, it's better for everybody."
Corcoran did say, however, that Love Garden does offer "in stores" (in store performances) fairly often.
Corcoran is not alone in wanting to keep, this one day centralized around the idea of appreciating records. In the past six years, Record Store Day has gained a strong following of music lovers and afficionados from all facets. The day has proven
capable of promoting core values within the music industry of supporting artists and bands, as well as local businesses.
Lawrence is lucky to have a lush lineup of eclectic local stores, Love Garden included. Love Garden has been a full service record store since 1990 and shows no signs of slowing down anytime soon.
Corcoran believes that from an economic standpoint, it is necessary for record stores to contribute to the cause and offer exclusive deals. "People want it, we should have it, 'cause we'll sell it,' he said. "I think every store should participate."
ebrate, and you should enable them to do that," Corcoran said. "The day reminds people that this place has value, that people should care about it. We should be happy that people want to celebrate at our store — and we are."
"More importantly, the day is meant to celebrate the existence of record stores. People want to cel-

The group consists of Ben Thornewill (vocals, piano), Tommy Siegel (vocals, guitar) and Jesse Kristin (drums). Since their formation in 2003, the band has had its share of monumental experiences. From touring with Ben Folds, appearing on The Late Show With David Letterman, and playing at Lollapalooza to name a few, Jukebox the Ghost is anxious and willing to take on whatever comes its way.
The pop-rock trio Jukebox the Ghost released its third studio album titled "Safe Travels," last June. Since then, the band has experienced just that — safe travels — as they tour relentlessly. Tonight, their travel have laid them to Lawrence, where they will play a show at the Jackpot Saloon.
With the release of the third album came acclaim for the group's apparent growth. According to the band's bio, the album "marks a period in the band's career that's steered in change, both personally and professionally."
The most notable change of all was to relocate from the band's Philly roots to Brooklyn. Once in Brooklyn, the group spent months
"In the past, Ben and Tommy sometimes wrote from various fictional perspectives," Kristin shared in the bio. "The songs on this album feel closer, more personal and steeped in actual life experiences."
in the studio writing and recording new material.
"It felt like the music was finally growing with us, songs that relate to who we are as people right now" he said. "The record feels a little more personal."

Siegel voiced his thoughts as well.
lyrics paired with light and upbeat music, Siegel said, "In the grand scheme of things, it's certainly not a downer record but you need pain to get joy, and joy to get pain; they're inseparable."
Tonight, fans will be able to experience both the pain and joy of Jukebox the Ghost's music for themselves.
Tickets can be purchased at the door and will be sold for $10 for those 21 and older, and for $12 for those 18 and younger. Doors open at 9 p.m.

NO LONGER FRIENDS
Reunion will not happen
MCLATCHY TRIBUNE
Shut up, Internet ShutupshutpshuuuuutUP!! The "Friends" reunion is not happening.
This rumor, this tired, hackneyed drivel of a rumor, pops up reliably every few months, like an Elvis sighting. It's almost turned into the beginning of a bad joke: "Did you hear the one about the 'Friends' reunion?" Ha. Shut up.
It popped up again Tuesday, leading Marta Kauffman — she and David Crane were show-runners so she should know — to tell E! that this will never happen. Someone with way too much time on their hands actually put together a poster proclaiming a reunion, it went viral — just like the flu — and gullible people actually believed it.
I'm going to tell you why this will never happen:
1. ) Jennifer Aniston has a life. Reunions are death.
2. ) All of the core actors have lives — which is to say day jobs producing, creating, acting or directing. They need a reunion like another hole in the face.
3. ) Reunions are death. Oh, I already mentioned that.
4. ) Everyone associated with "Friends" is vastly wealthy. Actors do reunions only when they are having trouble paying the mortgage on the Malibu Beach house.
5. ) Reunions simply remind fans that their beloved Rachel, Monica, Phoebe, Chandler and Ross have reached middle age, and that they are no longer cute.
6. ) Warner Bros. has tried to get a reunion going, but they've been laughed out of the room.

LASSOCIATED PRESS
CLEVELAND — Superman's 75th anniversary is giving his creators' blue-collar hometown a renewed chance to claim the superhero as its own.
ASSOCIATED PRESS
The city is making a start with a Superman day proclaimed by the mayor and giving out birthday cake at the airport's Superman display.
Fans hope Thursday's anniversary, including lighting city hall with Supermans colors, will raise the profile of co-creators Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster.
The June release of Hollywood's latest Superman tale, "Man of Steel" also should renew fan interest. The film offers a fresh start for the kid from Krypton, with Henry Cavill as the boy who falls to Earth and becomes its protector.
Siegel and Shuster labored on their creation for years in the throttling grip of the Great Depression before finally selling Superman to a publisher.
The Man of Steel became a Depression-era bootstrap strategy for the Siegel/Shuster team, according to Brad Ricca, a professor at nearby Case Western Reserve University who uses Superman in his classes.
"They really just saw it as a way out," he said.
In his upcoming book "Super Boys," Ricca says the story of Superman's creation is mostly about their friendship: two boys in the city's Glenville neighborhood dreaming of "fame, riches and girls" in a time when such dreams are all the easier to imagine because of the crushing economic misery.
Ricca said Siegel and Shuster reflected Cleveland's ethnic mix; both were sons of Jewish immigrants, struggled during the Depression and hustled to make something of themselves.
Superman's first appearance, in Action Comics No. 1, was April 18, 1938.
The first and greatest superhero has gone on to appear in nearly 1,000 Action Comics and has evolved with the times, including a 1940s radio serial, a 1950s TV series and as a reliable staple for Hollywood. Pop culture expert Charles Coletta at Bowling Green State University said Superman ranks globally with George Washington and the Super Bowl as American icons.
But it wasn't just hardscrawl circumstances that tempered the Man of Steel, Siegel's daughter said.
Laura Siegel Larson said Cleveland's public library, comic pages and high school mentors all nurtured her father's creativity.
"The encouragement that he received from his English teachers and the editors at the Glencroft High School newspaper and the literary magazine gave my dad a real confidence in his talents," she said by phone Monday from Los Angeles. She plans to be in Cleveland for the Thursday anniversary.
The tale of Superman's first moments begins in Siegel's bedroom. He once recalled coming up with the idea while looking up at the stars and imaging a powerful hero who looked out for those in distress.
Today, Siegel's home is easy to pick out on a street with a mix of renovated and dilapidated homes: a stylized red Superman "S" adorns the fence and a sign identifies the home as "the house where Superman was born."
And like the Man of Steel, the neighborhood is tough.
"You better have 'S' on your chest if you come out after dark," grinned Tommie Jones, 50, helping move furniture several doors away.
Hattie Gray, 61, who moved into the home nearly 30 years ago unaware of its history, has gotten used to the parade of Superman fans walking by or knocking, trying to savor a piece of comics lure.
"I get people all the time, people all the way from Japan, from Australia," she said. "It's a great joy to live here."
The top floor, where Siegel went to write, still offers the nighttime view of the sky over Lake Erie that inspired Siegel.
Gray has heard the talk about Glennville being tough, but said crime that might merit Superman's attention can be found anywhere. "The neighborhood is not really bad, it's just the people are poor. That's all," she said.
Shuster's home has been demolished and replaced by another, but the fence has oversized Superman comic book pages displayed.
Comic store owner Markus Benn thinks hometown fans want to see the Man of Steel rendered in granite.
"I don't understand why Cleveland won't own up to owning Superman," he said. "What do I suggest for a Superman statue? He should be downtown, he should
have the shield or the eagle, that classic pose where he's standing up with the eagle on his arm."
The low Superman profile in Cleveland may be because Siegel and Shuster weren't self-promoters and sold their rights to Superman so early, according to Mike Olszewski, a longtime Cleveland broadcaster and president of the nonprofit Siegel & Shuster Society.
Last year the $412 check that DC Comics wrote in 1938 to acquire Superman and other creative works by Shuster and Siegel sold for $160,000 in an online auction.
"Funky Winkerbean" creator
Tatjik Batiuk shares roots in the
Cleveland area with Superman and that inspired him.
"When I was in elementary school, I found an entry in a school encyclopedia about Jerry Siegel." Batiuk said in an email to The Associated Press.
"The fact that he was the one of the creators of Superman immediately caught my attention, but what was even more astounding to me was the fact that he was from Cleveland. The fact that someone from my area could do something like that was revelatory and inspirational."

Google Inc. is expected to announce it's taking over a troubled municipal fiber-optic system in a high-tech corridor of Utah, making Provo the third Google Fiber city.
Google fiber names third city
ASSOCIATED PRESS
SALT LAKE CITY — Google will take over a troubled municipal fiber-optic system and make Provo, Utah, the third city to get its high-speed Internet service via fiber-optic cables, the company announced Wednesday.
Google Fiber was rolled out in Kansas City, Mo., last year. The Mountain View, Calif., company announced earlier this month it will make Austin, Texas, the second city to get ultra-fast Internet service.
The Provo deal is the first time Google plans to acquire an existing fiber-optic system. The city of 115,000 created the fiber-optic network, iProvo, in 2004. It planned to operate the system itself for Internet, television and phone service but found the operation too daunting and turned it over to a succession of private partners that have struggled to break even.
A Google official said the company will offer basic Internet service at no charge to Provo residents, who can opt to pay for service 100 times faster than the competition. The system also can provide cable or satellite TV providers.
Provo officials said Google will charge customers a $30 activation fee. The free service provides speeds of 5 megabits per second. Google didn't say how much it planned to charge for faster service, but it would hook up schools, hospitals and libraries to the faster service at no charge.
Google Inc. said more than
In Kansas City, Google charges customers $70 a month for a gigabit connection.
"Once connected, Provo will be one of the first cities in the world where access to broadband will flow like water or electricity," Kevin Lo, general manager of Google Fiber, said Wednesday.
1,100 cities applied for its services starting in 2010, and some used gimmicks or elaborate videos in hopes of outshining the competition. Topeka, Kan., even informally renamed itself to "Google, Kansas."
Kansas City wound up prevailing, and Google began signing up residents there last year. By the end of 2013, Google expects that 180 neighborhoods that were selected for service based on demand will be completed.
The $70 fee in Kansas City is more than what cable or phone companies charge for basic Internet service, but the service is also much faster. Gigabit speeds, or 1,000 megabits per second, are generally unavailable from other companies. One exception is the city-owned electric utility in Chattanooga, Tenn., which has pulled its own fiber and sells gigabit service for $350 per month.

DOOM$DAY
COMMENTARY Smart's return makes Cowboys the favorite
By Ben Ashworth
bashworth@kansan.com
The cards all seemed to be stacked in Kansas' favor to take its string of consecutive Big 12 Championships into the double digits.
Oklahoma State was already viewed as a threat to take down the reigning champs. Of the top nine scorers in the Big 12 last season, only two players were returning to school: Oklahoma State's Markel Brown and Le'Brvan Nash.
Although the Jayhawks lost their entire starting five, a stellar recruiting class, coupled with defections and graduates at other schools, made all signs point to Kansas.
Now, Oklahoma State will feature the top three returning scorers in the conference. And Smart is the most important of all.
Oklahoma State is more than a threat now. It is the favorite.
That is, until freshman Marcus Smart decided to turn down millions of dollars and return to Oklahoma State.
That is the effect of having a top-five pick return to school. Smart is a disruptive force for the Cowboys at the point guard position and is an especially bad match-up for the Jayhawks, who are shaky at point guard. He has quick hands and his size relative to his position makes him a superior rebounder.
In Oklahoma State's upset at the hallowed grounds of Allen Fieldhouse, Smart had 25 points, eight rebounds, and five steals. He held Elijah Johnson to eight points on 3-14 shooting. After the game was over, he celebrated his accomplishments by channeling his inner gymnast and completing a perfect back-flap at mid-court.
Self certainly has the talent on his squad to replicate that success.
What will make Smart even scarier if he can develop an outside shot, the one cog missing from his game.
Kansas can certainly spoil that recipe. Smart's decision is very similar to Blake Griffin's in 2008. That year, Kansas lost its entire starting five, and Griffin turned down surefire lottery money to return to school, making Oklahoma the odds-on favorite.
An even scarier aspect of his game might be the chip he will have on his shoulder. Fans always decry the marginal player who declares for the draft, but also do so to the star player who returns to school. Smart is as his last name would suggest. He knows the risks of returning to school.
As Kansas's streak of championships would suggest, Bill Self and the Jayhawks found a way to win the Big 12 that year.
He also knows his own abilities Smart would not turn down the NBA if he were not confident in his ability to maintain his draft stock. With pundits and fans criticizing his decision, using choice words such as "horrible" and "stupid," he will have the motivation to prove to his doubters that his decision was the right one.
Add a year of experience, a sprinkle of renewed motivation, with a dash of a jump shot, and Oklahoma State has a recipe for a Big 12 Championship.
But if 10 straight is going to happen, the Jayhawks will have to earn it.

After spending 10 seasons at Kansas as one of coach Bill Self's assistants, Joe Dooley is leaving to be-
Florida Gulf Coast's Director of Athletics, Ken Kavanagh, announced the move Wednesday and a press conference to
Doolev
Cindy Nielsen
Gulf Coast head coach.
"It's been a great 10 years and a great experience at KU for me and my family," Dooley said on his new Twitter account, @FGCUCoach-Dooley. "It is a great situation
opportunity to build on some great success that they have had. Were really looking forward to the challenge."
Doley served as an assistant for all of Self's 10 seasons at Kansas. Rivals.com named Doley the
fourth-best recruiter in the nation in 2007 after helping secure a class that included Tyreel Reed and Cole Aldrich. Dooley was also responsible for signing Sasha Kaun and Mario Chalmers. Foxsports.com ranked Dooley No.1 in its list of the 25 best high-major assistant coaches in 2010.
Dooley's only other head coaching job was at East Carolina for four seasons from 1995-1999, where he finished with a 57-52 record. His first East Carolina team won 17 games, the second-most wins
by a first-year ECU head coach. He began his coaching career in 1988 and has been an assistant at South Carolina, East Carolina, New Mexico, Wyoming and Kansas.
"it's been a great 10 years and a great experience at KU for me and my family."
Florida Gulf Coast, located in Fort Myers, Fla., became the first No.15 seed in NCAA Tournament history to advance to the Sweet 16, and is entering only its seventh year of competition in Division I. Last season, the Eagles finished 26-11 and won the Atlantic Sun Tournament. According to a Florida Gulf Coast press release, Dooley has invited two of the Eagles' current assistant coaches to remain with the program.
The Eagles' press release cited Kansas' scoring ability as one reason why Dooley is expected to fit in well at Florida Gulf Coast. The Jayhawks averaged at least 75 points per game during nine of the 10 seasons Dooley was in Lawrence, and three times they averaged at least 80.

Florida Gulf Coast, which has taken on the nickname "Dunk City" averaged 73.5 points per mile

QUOTE OF THE DAY
"We'll keep training harder, for the people who perished today."
Wesley Norir,
won Boston Marathon in 2012,
finished 5th this year
FACT OF THE DAY
Rita jepson of Kenya won this year's Boston Marathon in 2 hours, 26 minutes and 10 seconds for the women. Lesia Desira of Ethiopia won for the men in 2 hours, 10 minutes and 23 seconds.
Globalpost.com
THE MORNING BREW Through tragedy, the sports world comes together as one
Q. How many times in the past 25 years have non-Americans won the Boston Marathon?
TRIVIA OF THE DAY
A:23
Globalpost.com
Monday, the city of Boston was celebrating Patriots' Day, which is normally an enjoyable day in the Boston area. The most notable sports event on this day was the Boston Marathon, ran every year to celebrate this holiday. But what happened about halfway through the race shocked the world.
What was supposed to be a joyous day turned into tragedy in just a second. As runners kept running and crossing the finish line, two bombs went off on the sides of the street where bystanders were watching the race. One went off right before the finish line and another one a block away. Many people were hurt. Runners, race watchers and even children were injured. Blood was spewed everywhere, people were helping the victims. Police and ambulances were running through the scene. Screams were heard from all around. Tears mixed with the blood on the ground.
By Michael Portman
mportman@kansan.com
The Boston Marathon is known as the old, drunk uncle of Boston sports.
It's the last of the true festival events that takes place. It is well known, and as the events of what happened unfolded, the rest of the world sat watching the live feeds and videos of what was happening. Later that evening, players of every sport took a moment of silence to write the words "Pray for Boston" anywhere that would show their support. Professional players tweeted saying they would donate their own money to help support relief for the Boston area. The Boston Bruins and Celtics games were both canceled because of what happened. The Bruins
were supposed to play Monday night, and the Celtics were to play Tuesday. On SportsCenter, many of the Bruins players showed a lot of emotion in their interviews. The bombings hit them emotionally because it happened in their city, and in all, it was a very emotional event.
All around the United States, major cities increased security as protection to their citizens. Sporting events had additional security, and many fans also had concerns and said prayers for those who suffered in Boston. The London marathon is coming up, and the top executives for the race have said that additional security and an investigation will take place before and during the race. They also said they will still hold the marathon. They called the attackers cowards and said they will prove to them that the people will stay strong and show their support.
It is an emotional time right now. All you can do is pray for the victims. So far, the count of victims has reached 179.
KU
Three of those were killed and 176 are being treated or have been treated for their injuries. We still don't know all of the details of this incident. No matter if you hate the city of Boston or the teams that play in Boston, you should support and pray for them through this rough time. Through tragedy, we come together as one.

Busch ready for Kansas to maintain his hot streak
It's Kyle Busch's world once again in NASCAR, and everybody else is just sharing track space with him. Until this weekend at Kansas, of course.
Then everyone gets to see just how
far Busch has really come in the last 17 months.
Busch won both the Sprint Cup and Nationwide Series races in Texas last weekend, his second sweep this season, in a huge comeback at the site of his 2011 NASCAR suspension for deliberately wrecking Ron Hornady Jr.
in a Truck Series race.
Now he carries all that momentum into Kansas, his worst track on the circuit. Busch is winless at Kansas in 11 career starts, has only two top-10 finishes and wrecked there during Chase for the Sprint Cup championship races in 2007 and 2010. He also
"It's not that you might not like a
Still, Busch just picked up his first career win at Texas Motor Speedway and he wants to do the same at Kansas, where his average finish is 21st and is one of only six active tracks where he's yet to win a Cup race.
crashed last season.
track or might not like a race ... it's just a matter of trying to figure it out," Busch said. "Once you kind of get it figured out or get the right situations kind of lined up, you can have a shot. I look at (Kansas) a lot like Michigan. That's a place where I struggled for a long time, but we finally were able to
break through there for a win two years ago."
KANSANCLASSIFIEDS
In years past, Busch has dreaded going to Kansas. Not this year.
A year after grabbing just one win across all three NASCAR national series, Busch is red hot again.

Jayhawks face Cowgirls in weekend series, aim to improve in conference
CHRIS SCHAEDER
cschaeder@kansan.com
The Kansas softball team travels to Stillwater, Okla., on Friday to take on the Cowgirls in a three-game series at Cowgirl Stadium.
Oklahoma State will become Kansas's most-played opponent after this weekend, with 103 meetings between the two teams prior to this weekend's series.
Some players to watch for the Cowgirls are catcher Tarah Ettinger, the team's leader in batting average, home runs and RBIs, and Tamara Brown, second on the team
Oklahoma State comes into the game with a 24-20 record on the season and a 2-7 record in the Big 12. The Cowgirls have struggled mightily the last few weeks, losing six in a row, including sweeps against Iowa State and Baylor. Oklahoma State has also had recent games against Wichita State and Oklahoma postponed because of inclement weather.
Kat Espinosa, a senior pitcher for the Cowgirls, is one player Kansas coach Megan Smith is keeping an eye on.
Despite their struggles, the Cowgirls have played fairly well at home going 9-6 at Cowgirl Stadium, including a first-place finish in the Mizuno Classic and two victories over Texas Tech.
in batting average and third in total bases.
"She's good. We're ready for her to graduate because she's done a very good job during her career at Oklahoma State," Smith said in a KU Athletics press release. "They have really good pitching that keeps them in every game and we anticipate that we'll see really strong pitching from both of them [Simone Freeman and Espinosa] this weekend."
Kansas enters the weekend with an overall record of 26-11 and a 3-1 record in the Big 12. The Jayhawks have won four of their last five games, including a three-game
sweep of Texas Tech in Lubbock and two victories over Furman University.
The lajahawks were scheduled to play for former conference foe Nebraska on Wednesday, but the game was canceled because of inclement weather in Lincoln. Kansas has fared well on the road this season, going 7-5 so far this season.
Kansas has led the Big 12 in team batting average for 10-straight weeks with a .349 average, which ranks fourth in the NCAA.
Some offensive players to watch for Kansas are Maggie Hull, the team leader in batting average and RBIs, and Alex Hugo, the team leader in home runs and second in RBIs. Hull is tied with Oklahoma's Lauren Chamberlain for the highest batting average in the Big 12 with a .472 average. Hull and Hugo also have two of the top five highest batting averages in the Big 12.
Pitchers to watch for Kansas this weekend are Kelsey Kessler, who
threw the first no-hitter for the Jayhawks since 2007 against Texas Tech on April 7, and Alicia Pille, who has pitched superbly as of late and leads the team in wins, appearances, games started and complete games.
Kansas looks to use this series as an opportunity to move up in the Big 12 standings. The Jayhawks currently sit in fourth behind Texas, Oklahoma and Baylor.
Coach Smith explained the importance of this weekend's series in a KU Athletics press release.
"Every Big 12 series from here on out is going to be a big series for us, but this definitely is a big one. Our team and Oklahoma State are very even matched. We have kind of the same mentality that we had going into Texas Tech in that this is going to be a fun weekend."
Friday's game starts at 5:30 p.m. and Saturday and Sunday's games begin at noon.

Burnett blows no-no, Pirates get 5-0 victory over Cardinals
Pittsburgh Pirates players congratulating A.J. Burnette in the dugout after he threw seven shutout innings versus the St. Louis Cardinals.
ASSOCIATED PRESS
PITTSBURGH — A.J. Burnett took a no-hitter into the seventh inning nearly 12 years after throwing the only one of his career, pitching the Pittsburgh Pirates to a 5-0 victory over the St. Louis Cardinals on Wednesday night.
Burnett (1-2) lost his bid with two outs in the seventh on Carlos Beltran's double to right-center. That was the lone hit given up by the 36-year-old right-hander in seven dominant innings.
The only other runner he allowed came when he hit Daniel Descalso with a 2-2 pitch with one out in the sixth to his shot at a perfect game. Burnett struck out eight to his season total to 35 in 24 innings.
His bid for a no-hitter came
on a night when he recorded the 2,000th strikeout of his 15-year career. Burnett reached the milestone when he caught Beltran looking to lead off the second.
The game was stopped briefly when Pirates infielders and catcher Russell Martin went to the mound to shake Burnett's hand. Burnett also gave a quick wave to the crowd of 9,570, which gave him a standing ovation.
Mark Melancon, Tony Watson and Jason Grilli completed the one-hitter. It was the Pirates' second shutout of the season and the second time the Cardinals had been blanked.
Burnett's no-hitter came on May 12, 2001, for the Florida Marlins in San Diego. That game was also notable for his nine walks. Burned did not issue a free pass
Wednesdav night
St. Louis rookie Shelby Miller (2-1) pitched well despite taking his first loss in four career decisions. He gave up two runs and six hits in six innings with one walk and six strikeouts.
The Pirates struck quickly against Miller as Starling Marte led off the first inning with a triple high of the right-field wall, extending his hitting streak to 10 games. Travis Snider then singled Marte home.
Andrew McCutchen and Neil Walker each had two of Pittsburgh's 11 hits.
However, after Walker hit a two-out double in the first inning. Miller retired 15 consecutive batters.

On rainy and windy Wednesday morning, college athletes from across the Midwest gathered at Memorial Stadium to get the 86th Kansas Relays underway. While the majority of the events will take place on Friday and Saturday, the men's decathlon and women's heptathlon got their events started Wednesday. The men compete in 10 events, while the women compete in seven, with the option of picking up points in each event and the winner being declared at the conclusion of the events.
On the men's side, the leader after five events is John Cord from Simpson College in Indianola, Iowa. He has racked up 3390 points, thanks in part to his third place finish in the high jump. He is followed closely by Dan Simon of the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, who has 3379 points. Simon won the 100 meters with a time of 11.09.
Fourteen women and 11 men who range from NCAA Division I to NAIA to junior college are competing in the multi-event competition at the Kansas Relays. The universities represented include
After the first day of events, the women are led by Erin Busbee from the University of Michigan. Her 3010 point total includes victories in the 100 and 200 meters. Busbee is followed by Alex Beckman from the University of Minnesota, who has 2927 points, thanks to her runner-up finish in the shot put.
Jayce Thomas from Missouri Southern State University is currently in third place with 3347 points. He recorded the best score in the high jump, clearing 1.97 meters (6'5.5"). Sitting in fourth place is Atsu Nyamadi from Neosho County, who finished third in the long jump and has a total of 3337 points.
Third place is owned by Jourdan Doffeny from Nebraska, who has 2848 points and was the runner-up in the 100 meters. Rachel Klinger, who is competing unattached, is in fourth place with 2820 points.
The conclusion of both the heptathlon and the decathlon will resume Thursday morning at Memorial Stadium. The men will finish the competition with the 1500 meter run while the women's finale will be the 800 meter run.

Lakers sneak in NBA playoffs behind Jazz loss in Memphis
ASSOCIATED PRESS
THE ASSOCIATION
MEMPHIS, Tenn. — Zach Randolph had 25 points and 19 rebounds and the Memphis Grizzlies ended Utah's playoff hopes with an 86-70 victory over the Jazz on Wednesday.
The Grizzlies' victory means the Los Angeles Lakers are assured of making the playoffs even before their late game against the Houston Rockets.
Meanwhile, Memphis, the Western Conference's fifth seed, still held out hopes for home-court advantage if the Los Angeles Clippers lost at Sacramento in another late game.
20
BEGIN APRIL 20
Mike Conley finished with 14 points for Memphis, which won its second straight and fifth in the past six. Darrell Arthur finished with 11 points for Memphis.
The Jazz managed only 32 percent shooting and were out rebounded 57-47.
Randolph ended the third quarter with 12 points and seven rebounds as Memphis built the advantage to 16 before carrying a 65-51 lead into the fourth.
Al Jefferson scored 22 points and grabbed 16 rebounds to lead Utah, the only Jazz player in double figures.
The Grizzlies built the lead to 20 in the early part of the fourth.
Utah made one more push, cutting into the Memphis advantage with eight straight points, part of a 12-2 Jazz run. That reduced the Grizzlies lead to 75-65 with just under 5 minutes left, but the Jazz never got closer.
ASSOCIATED PRESS
Memphis Grizzlies' Quincy Pondexter (20) dunks over Utah Jazz's Randy Foye during the first half of Wednesday's game.
The start of the game seemed to lack the intensity of two teams with playoff implications.
The shooting eventually got a lot better, but both were under 41 percent at the half as the Grizzlies carried a 40-38 lead into the break.
About 10 minutes in, the Jazz were shooting 25 percent, while Memphis was at 37 percent. The Grizzlies' starting front-line opened the game missing 10 of 13 shots.
Jefferson was the only player in double figures with 10 points, while Randolph led the Grizzlies with eight points and eight rebounds.
It was Randolph who took control for Memphis, working inside and grabbing rebounds. Conley was providing a nice supporting role, taking the ball to the rim.
The defense picked up a bit in the third, but the Jazz's shooting woes continued as Utah missed its first six shots, en route to hitting only 3 of 14, while Memphis built the lead to double digits.
Utah finished the third hitting 4 of 18 shots and committing four turnovers.

PITCHING
FIELDING
For the Jayhawks, pitching is key, particularly starting pitching. Coach Price expects the Jayhawks starting pitching rotation to get deep into games allowing Jordan Piche' to take over. Piche' was named the Big 12's Newcomer of the Week for the second week in a row on Monday.
HITTING
The Jayhawks struggled at the plate against Creighton. Kansas scored the first two runs of the game and fought back to tie it at four, but couldn't get the bats started in the 12-4 loss. The Jayhawks will look to put pressure on the Red Raiders fielders with aggressive baserunning.
The Jayhawks committed to unfortunate errors in the loss to Creighton. Kansas middle infield play has been solid of late with senior shortstop Kevin Kuntz and sophomore second baseman Justin Protocio turning solid double plays.
PITCHING
HITTING
The Red Raiders return Junior right hander Trey Masek from a 3-week stint on the bench due to injury. Masek is 3-0 on the season with a .84 ERA, 42 strikeouts and a .185 batting average against. Earlier in the month, Masek was named the No. 2 college pitching prospect by Baseball America.
The Red Raiders are struggling to grind through a seven game losing streak of late. Texas Tech is led by Junior infielder Jake Barrios's .300 average, three homeruns and 30 RBIs. Although, nothing jumps off the stat sheet for the Red Raiders, coach Price is staying cautious with a young lineup that is due for a good weekend.
FIELDING
The Red Raiders have committed 42 errors in 37 games this season good for a .971 fielding percentage. Junior infielder Jake Barrios tops the list with five errors on the season. The young lineup has had several less than stellar moments on the season. Coach Price will continue to keep the pressure on with aggressive baserunning.

After a tough 12-4 loss to the Creighton Bluejays Tuesday in Omaha, Neb., and a cancellation due to inclement weather Wednesday, the Jayhawks are headed to Lubbock, Texas to take on a struggling Red Raider squad.
Junior Ka'iana Eldredge sprints past second base on his way to home plate to score the Jayhawks' first and only run of Saturday's game against the Texas Longhorns at Hoglund Ballpark, Kansas lost to Texas 2-1.
The Red Raiders are in the midst of a seven game losing streak, six of these coming on the road.
"I actually wish they were still playing as good as they were playing earlier in the year," coach Ritch Price said. "Lubbock's a really tough place to get to. It's a tough place to play. When they're playing well they draw over 3,000 people a game in their new stadium."
The Red Raiders return junior right-handed pitcher Trey Masek to the mound after a three-week absence due to injury. Masek, named the No. 2 prospect in the upcoming class of the MLB draft by Baseball America last month, is largely considered the soul of the Red Raider pitching rotation.
"The scary part for us is their number one guy is back and pitching Friday," Coach Price said. "He's been out three weeks and you can almost coincide their losing streak here with him being out of the lineup."
Price said Masek's Pitcher of the Year performance in the Cape Cod League this summer is a testament to just how solid he is on the
mound.
The Red Raiders are a mirror image of last year's Kansas team that fielded the youngest lineup in the Big 12. Coach Price said their struggles in the midseason stretch are much the same as his team last year.
"They've got a lot of freshmen and a lot of sophomores playing." Price said. "They've got into the Big 12 conference and it can just beat you up mentally with how good the teams are. Their going to continue to get better, we just have to make sure we take care of things we can control."
Red Raiders junior infielder Jake Barrios leads the team at the plate, batting .300 with 33 hits, three home runs and 30 RBIs.
"With us it starts with starting pitching," Price said. "We have to get three quality starting pitching performances in order to have an opportunity to win the series and not take a step back and lose the momentum we've gained after the first four weeks of the year."
The Jayhawks will start their attempt at maintaining that moment after their tough mid-week performance with a 6:37 p.m. first pitch Friday in Lubbock.
After Tanner Poppe's rough outing on the mound Tuesday, the Jayhawks continue their focus on starting pitching.

BIRDIE THE LAST
Golf team trying to earn NCAA Regional bid in tourney
CHRIS HYBL
chybl@kansan.com
When the Kansas women's golf team started its season, getting to the NCAA regionals was a clear goal. But now, the Jayhawks are sitting on the regional bubble and this week's Big 12 Championship is Kansas' only hope to get a regional bid.
"This one is more pressure because we are ranked higher than we have been in the past," said junior Meghan Potee. "Being right there on the bubble to getting an invite to regionals puts a little more pressure
on us."
The pressure is on the Jayhawks, especially with history considered. Kansas has finished in the bottom half of the tournament field eight of the nine years that head coach Erin O'Neil has overseen the program. The highest finish for the Jayhawks in that time period was fifth place in the '04-'05 season. Kansas has never qualified for an NCAA regional since regionals started in 1993, but Potee thinks things are changing.
"We have the best [team] we've had in years or ever since coach has been here." Potee said. "I think we
have a chance of playing really well. We've been playing real steady recently"
The Jayhawks are currently ranked No. 67, according to Golfweek. The total number of teams in the field for NCAA regionals is 72, but automatic bids can always sneak into the tournament from outside the top 72 teams.
"This year we're ranked really well, and we don't have to rely solely on Big 12s to advance on to regionals," senior Audrey Yowell said. "I think we're just going to go out there and treat it like it was any other tournament we are playing in
and try to keep the pressure off."
The Jayhawks have two wins to help their regional resume, but the Big 12 Championship is the key for the Jayhawks' postseason hopes. The pressure is inevitable.
"You have all the teams in the conference that are very good, solid teams. It's run at a high level. It's exciting, it's fun. There's more pressure," O'Neil said. "That's why were here, to compete and handle that kind of thing."
Kansas is coming off its best finish of the spring season, a second place finish at last week's Indiana Invitational. Leading the way for
Kansas most recently has been junior Thanatutta Boonrakasasat Boonraksasat has finished in the top five in each of her last three events.
"I just play a shot at a time and follow the plan I made during the practice round."
Cold weather is part of the plan for this weekend's championship at The Harvester Golf Club in Rhodes, Iowa. Snow is even in the forecast for Friday, when the tournament kicks off. The weather is projected to stay in the high-forty, low fifty range throughout the week, with the possibility of rain. But as O'Neil
puts it, that's nothing new for the Jayhawks.
"We've played in some very windy conditions and cold conditions and they've handled themselves very well throughout it all and shot good numbers," O'Neil said. "It's definitely helped their confidence. They've shown they can handle pretty much anything that gets thrown their way."
History is in the way of the Jayhawks though, and they will have to derail it for an NCAA regional bid.

The field is comprised of Kansas, California, Notre Dame, Sacramento State, Stanford, Tulsa, University of Southern California, Wisconsin and Washington State. USC is currently ranked first in the country in women's rowing, and California is ranked second. USC earned its ranking by claiming all 25 first-place votes on the coaches' poll released April 10, and jumping from sixth to first. Four other
teams, Notre Dame, Stanford, Wisconsin and Washington State, are also ranked in the top 20.
Recently, the Jayhawks have been competing well in the fours and second varsity eight. Last weekend at the Knecht Cup, the varsity four, the second varsity four and the second varsity eight boats earned gold in their respective grand finals. These boats qualified for the grand finals by doing well in the preliminary heats and semifinal.

Kansas tennis tries to escape last place before senior night
TYLER CONOVER
tconover@kansan.com
On Saturday, the Big 12 will have only one tennis team without a conference win. Kansas and West Virginia are winless in Big 12 play, but the Mountaineers come to Lawrence on Friday to take on the Jayhawks, and the winner will be able to take a step out of the conference cellar.
Kansas hosted No. 29 Texas and No. 15 Texas Tech last weekend, but the Jayhawks were unable to get a much needed conference victory. Kansas subsequently extended its conference losing streak to 21 games.
For the Jayhawks, momentum will be important. Kansas has started too slowly in doubles play over the past two matches and has not been able to make up the lost ground in singles play. In order for this to happen, freshman Anastasija Trubica and senior Victoria
Khanevskaya will have to keep up their high-level of play. The duo
West Virginia comes in with a 4-14 (0-7) record, which is the worst in the Big 12, and

hopes to leave Lawrence with a conference win. For the Mountaineers to achieve this goal, they will need to duplicate the play of the Texas teams from a week ago and keep the Jayhawks grounded in singles play.
If Kansas is unable to best the Mountaineers, the team will have one last shot at breaking its losing streak on Sunday when Iowa State visits the Jayhawk Tennis Center on Senior Night.

this match as the Jayhawks hold a 37-3 all-time lead in the series. However, ISU did manage to fend off Kansas in Ames, Iowa., last spring.
Friday's match is set to begin at 2 p.m., and Sunday's is set for noon. All in attendance will be given a free hot dog and chips to help celebrate the seniors.
ISU sits at 1-6 in Big 12 play with a 8-12 overall record. The lone conference victory came last weekend against WVU, and Kansas has an opportunity to put both schools beneath it in Big 12 play with a clean sweep this weekend.

A makeshift memorial including a pair of running shoes sits on the campus of Boston University after it was learned that BU student Lu Lingzi was one of the victims of the Boston Marathon bombings in Boston Wednesday, April 17, 2013.
Surveillance video may be key to uncovering suspect
ASSOCIATED PRESS
BOSTON — Investigators poring over photos and video from the Boston Marathon bombing have a department-store surveillance-camera image of a man dropping off a bag at the scene of the one of the blasts, a top city politician said Wednesday.
City Council President Stephen Murphy, who said he was briefed by members of the Boston Police Department, said he does not know if investigators know the man's name. He said officers are chasing leads that could take them to the suspect.
"They may be on the verge of arresting someone and that's good," he said.
Separately, a law enforcement official who spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity and was not autho-
ized to discuss the case publicly confirmed only that investigators had an image of a potential suspect but did not know his identity.
"Contrary to widespread reporting, there have been no arrests made in connection with the Boston Marathon attack."
The twin bomb blasts Monday near the finish line of the world's most famous foot race killed three people and wounded more than 170, tearing off limbs in a hall of shrapnel.
maim. Investigators suspect the bombs were hidden in black duffel bags and left on the ground.
Law enforcement agencies pleaded for the public to come forward with photos, videos or any information that might help them solve the case, and they gathered surveillance video from businesses around the finish line.
The bombs are believed to have been fashioned out of ordinary kitchen pressure cookers packed with explosives, nails, ball bearings and metal shards designed to
As a result, they were looking for images of someone lugging a dark, heavy bag.
"One of the department stores down on Boylston Street submitted video system which has confirmed that a suspect is seen dropping a bag near the point of the second explosion and heading off." Murphy said.
Murphy said he was told investigators have matched information from the surveillance footage with witness descriptions of someone leaving the scene.
FBI STATEMENT
Earlier in the day, several news organizations, citing unidentified sources, reported that a video surveillance camera at a Lord & Taylor department store midway between the two blast sites showed a suspect with a backpack
near the finish line.
The news came with Boston in a state of high excitement over conflicting information on whether a suspect was in custody.
A law enforcement official briefed on the investigation told the AP around midday that a suspect was in custody. The official, who was not authorized to divulge details of the investigation, said the suspect was expected in federal court.
"Contrary to widespread reporting, there have been no arrests made in connection with the Boston Marathon attack," the FBI said in a statement. "Over the past day and a half, there have been a

number of press reports based on information from unofficial sources that has been inaccurate. Since these stories often have unintended consequences, we ask the media, particularly at this early stage of the investigation, to exercise caution and attempt to verify information through appropriate official channels before reporting."
The official who spoke to the AP about someone being taken into custody stood by the information even after it was disputed.
Scores of victims remained hospitalized, many with grievous injuries. Fourteen were listed in critical condition. Doctors who treated the wounded corroborated reports that the bombs were packed with shrapnel and blew up close to the ground.
The chief of trauma surgery at Boston Medical Center said most of the injuries his hospital treated were to the legs.
"We have a lot of lower-extremity injuries, so I think the damage was low to the ground and wasn't up." Dr. Peter Burke said. "The patients who do have head injuries were blown into things or were hit by fragments that went up."
The blasts killed 8-year-old Martin Richard of Boston and 29-year-old Krystle Campbell of Medford. The Shenyang Evening News, a state-run Chinese newspaper, identified the third victim as Lu Lingzi. She was a graduate student at Boston University.
A bomb threat forced the evacuation of the courthouse Wednesday midafternoon, the U.S. Marshals Service said, and security officials swept the area. Employees were allowed back in on an hour later.

KAPOLEI, Hawaii — Suzann Pettersen shot a 7-under 65 on Wednesday at breezy Ko Olina to take the first halfway through the first round of the LPGA Lotte Championship.
The Norwegian, a 10-time winner on the LPGA Tour, had nine birdies and two bogeys in her morning round.
"I went out today and tried to be really aggressive," said Pettersen, coming off a third-place tie two weeks in the Kraft Nabisco Championship. "My dad was so disappointed after the Kraft that I left all the putts short. He's like, 'You got to hit the ball past the hole to make putts.'"

CUBS SALUTE

Rangers and Cubs to face off despite rainy weather
ASSOCIATED PRESS
CHICAGO — The Texas Rangers are getting accustomed to this cold, damp weather.
The game between the Rangers and Chicago Cubs scheduled for Wednesday night was rained out. It was postponed two hours before it was supposed to start at Wrigley Field.
No makeup date was announced. The teams are set to play Thursday afternoon.
("Tuesday) night wasn't bad,
just a little chilly but we're in Chicago and we're going to have to put up with that," first baseman Mitch Moreland said. "We've kind of dealt with the last few games anyways."
It might be been more than "a little chilly." The gametine temperature Tuesday night was 39 degrees with the wind blowing in off nearby Lake Michigan.
Rangers manager Ron Washington said it was worse the conditions he's felt crosstown at U.S. Cellular Field, where the White Sox.
Texas opened the interleague series with a 4-2 win.
I can tell you what, we've been on the south side when it's cold, but it's not the same cold on the north side," Washington said.
Before Wednesday, the Rangers had played their last five games with the temperatures below 50 degrees, including four at Seattle's Safeco Field. So, for a warm-weather team, Texas is rather well-versed in ways to beat low temperatures and tough conditions.
The Rangers will skip Wednesday's scheduled starter, Justin Grimm, in favor of Alexi Ogando on Thursday.
Yu Darvish will pitch Friday against Seattle regardless of Thursday's weather. Grimm will pitch Sunday and Tuesday's winner, Derek Holland, will open the Rangers' set Monday with the Los Angeles Angels.
And if the Chicago weather continues to be a problem, there are a few Rangers who know how to deal with the raw conditions.
The Rangers have former Chi-
caago White Sox catcher A.J. Pierzynski, along with ex-Cubs Geovany Soto and Jeff Baker. The three spent parts of a combined 20 years in Chicago, and certainly experienced some miserable April days.
"The thing you keep coming back to is that both teams are playing in it," said Baker, who spent parts of four years with the Cubs. "Yeah, you're probably not going to have your great individual performance that day but at the same time all that matters is beating that other team and go out there and scoring more runs."
Moreland said he was told to expect what the Rangers are getting.
"That's the way it is in Chicago this time of the year," Moreland said. "That's part of it."
That isn't to say the conditions are pleasant at Wrigley. Baker remembered that last season he didn't wear short sleeves under his iersey until June at Wrigley.
His mindset, however, never changed. It was always about winning and trying to block out the raw weather.

Royals victory ends Atlanta's ten-game winning streak
I ASSOCIATED PRESS
ATLANTA — Wade Davis pitched five-hit ball for seven innings, jeff Francoeur had a fourth-inning RBI single and the Kansas City Royals stopped Atlanta's 10-game winning streak with a 1-0 victory Wednesday.
Davis (2-0) didn't walk anyone and struck out seven, and the Braves couldn't get a runner past first base until Jason Heyward's two-out double in the sixth. Their only serious scoring chance came in the seventh, when Juan Francisco was thrown out trying to score from first on a pop down the right-field line.
Mike Minor (2-1) had another strong outing for the Braves, allowing just five hits and the lone run in six innings. The left-hand-
The Braves were seeking their first 13-1 start since 1994, but the powerful Atlanta offense — which honered five times off the Royals on Tuesday — finally was stifled.
Greg Holland worked a scoreless ninth for his third save in four chances.
er's ERA over three starts is 0.95.
Neither team had gotten a runner as far as second base until the fourth, when the Royals caught a couple of breaks before Francoeur's two-out hit.
Alcides Escobar led off with a single to right, breaking an 0-for-15 slump, but it appeared he wouldn't be on base for long when he got stranded between first and second after a pitch. Catcher Evan Gattis tried to run at Escobar but held the ball for too long, allowing the runner to slide back into first just ahead of the throw.
Gattis pumped his fists and screamed at himself under his mask for letting Escobar off the hook.
That turned out to be a crucial play. With two outs, Lorenzo Cain hit a little dribble down the third-base line for an infield hit, then Francoeur came through on an 0-2 pitch, singling to left field when Minor left a ball in the strike zone against a free-swinging batter who is prone to chase bad pitches.
In the seventh, Atlanta put together its best scoring chance against Davis, Francisco, who homered twice against the Royals on Tuesday, singled to right with two outs for his second hit of the game. Then, Chris Johnson lofted a popup that down the right-field line that landed about a foot fair, just out of the grasp of diving second baseman Chris Getz.
But Getz hustled to his feet, tracked down the ball alongside the rolled up tarp, and alertly spotted that Francisco was trying to score all the way from first. The throw to the plate was easily in time to get the lumbering runner.
Escobar had an error in the first, throwing high after fielding a grounder by leadoff hitter B.J. Upton, but the Royals shortstop came up with a couple of nifty defensive plays — one a barehanded grab on a grounder in the hole, another a diving stop on a wickedly hit ball by Chris Johnson to set up a double play.

Athletics sweep Astros over three-game series
OAKLAND, Calif. — Bartolo Colon pitched six crisp innings, Josh Reddick doubled in two runs during a six-run first and the Oakland Athletics beat the Houston Astros 7-5 on Wednesday to complete another three-game sweep.
The Athletics swept a three-game series at Houston during the first week of the season.
Seth Smith had three hits and Jed Lowie added two for the A's, who improved to an AL-best 12-4. Oakland outscored Houston 22-10 in the series.
The As sent 11 batts to the plate and chased Astros starter Bud Norris in
the first inning, then won behind Colon (2-0) and three relievers.
Jose Altuve had three hits and Carlos Pena homered for the second straight day for Houston. Pinch-titter Rick Ankiel also homered for the Astros.
Colon beat Houston for the second time this season.
Chris Carter reached on an RBI grounder in the first, then was picked off by the 39-year-old Colon to end the inning.
Colon retired 15 of the final 17 batters he faced. He gave up four hits, struck out three and only allowed one runner past first base — Jose Altuve, who singled and scored Houston's first run.
Colon, who has not walked a batter in 19 innings this season, lowered his ERA to 3.32.
It was also the second time in three games Houston's starting pitcher failed to get out of the first. Eric Bedard retired just one batter and gave up six runs in Monday's 11-2 loss to the A's in the shortest outing of his career.
Norris (2-2) lasted only slightly longer, sticking around to get a second out when leadoff hitter John Jaso grounded out in his second at-bat of the first.
Reddick broke out of 4-for-39 slump with a double to highlight Oakland's big inning.

Senior forward Kevin Young chats with bronze medalist Reese Hoffa after the two squared off in a Rubik's Cube challenge to end day one of the Kansas Relays. Young solved the Rubik's Cube in less than two minutes, not quickly enough to beat Hoffa. Hoffa was one of several professional shot putters who participated in the first day of the Kansas Relays Wednesday night. The shot put event was moved from downtown Lawrence to the Douglas County Fairgrounds because of weather conditions.
Kansas Relays underway, event locations unusual

The 86th edition of the Kansas Relays got underway on Wednesday, albeit in the unlikeliest of places. The elite division of men's shot put was held inside a livestock pavilion at the Douglas County Fairgrounds on the east side of Lawrence. The standing-room-only crowd gathered to watch nine shot put hopefuls claim the top spot.
The family friendly atmosphere offered music that played leading up to the competition, the University's cheerleaders throwing out t-shirts and sweatshirts in between rounds, as well as a visit by Big Jay himself. The event was originally scheduled to be downtown near 8th and Massachusetts Street, but was moved to the fairgrounds because of inclement weather. The attendance did not falter though, as the crowd filled up the bleachers and surrounded the makeshift shot put arena on all sides.
Highlighting the competition was last year's Kansas Relays winner, Reese Hoffa. The Georgia native, who earned a bronze medal at the 2012 London Olympics, was leading entering the final round of competition. That was when Ryan Whiting, a graduate of Arizona State University, entered the ring
for his final throw and landed a toss of 21.65 meters (71'0.5") , topping Hoffa's best throw of 21.60 meters (70'8.5").
Finishing in third place was Justin Rodhe, a Canadian who also threw in the 2012 Olympics, with a throw of 21.12 meters (69*4"). Cory Martin, an Auburn University graduate, finished in fourth place with a heave of 20.32 meters (66*8").
The excitement in the building was evident throughout as the crowd cheered on each and every participant — even Christian Cantwell, a University of Missouri graduate — and erupted when Whiting's throw in the final round took the lead. The event was also featured on Metro Sports in the Kansas City area on ESPN3, which goes to show how special this event truly is.
After Hoffa's runner-up finish in the shot put, he had one more competition before his night was done. Hoffa loves solving Rubik's cubes, and so does Kansas mens basketball player Kevin Young. The two of them agreed to a competition after the conclusion of the shot put event.
There they stood in the shot put ring. The $6'8"$ — nearly seven feet tall if you include his hair — Young stood up against the $5'11"$ Hoffa in a battle of wits. After nearly two
minutes went by, Hoffa successfully solved his Rubik's cube, defeating Young by less than twenty seconds. The two of them shook hands to a final standing applause from the crowd that stayed and watched the competition.
The Relays are off to a great start, but there's plenty more events worth watching. Thursday offers more field events that feature athletes of Olympic caliber, and Memorial Stadium will be the center of attention on Friday and Saturday as some of the fastest athletes in the world compete against each other.
Even if you missed the excitement Wednesday night at the fairgrounds, you have another opportunity Thursday night to see the elite division of women's long jump at 6 p.m. at the same place. Leading the group of women competing is 2012 Kansas Relays champion in the event, Janay DeLoach.
No matter what your cup of tea is, the RELays have something to offer you. Just ask Kevin Young.

Wade scored 21 points and handed out 10 assists, Mike Miller added 21 points and the Miami Heat wrapped up the regular season with a 105-93 win over the Orlando Magic on Wednesday night.
Orlando finished with the NBAs worst record, 20-62.
MAKING THE CUT
丰
Miami (66-16) became the 14th team in NBA history to finish with a winning percentage over 800. The Heat have home-court advantage throughout the NBA playoffs and will open their quest for a second straight championship on Sunday against the Milwaukee Bucks in Game 1 of an Eastern Conference first-round series.
"Awesome," Wade said. "It's great. It's a testament to the team being committed and being very consistent all year."
"We still have time to get into this mentally." Heat coach Erik Spoelstra said.
Juwan Howard scored 12 points in the 900th start of his career, while Rashard Lewis scored 16 points and Ray Allen scored 10 for Miami.
The Heat were without LeBron James, who was away from the team for the day while tending to a personal matter and almost certainly would not have played even if he was in the arena anyway. Chris Bosh was in the first starting lineup the Heat submitted Wednesday, before the team changed course about 45 minutes before game time and decided to give him the night off as well.
The Heat surely won't mind not seeing Vucevic again until next fall. In three games against Miami this season, Vucevice — who arrived in Orlando as part of the Dwight Howard trade last summer — finished with 65 points and 63 rebounds, getting double-doubles in every outing.
The Heat finished 37-4 at home, and not long after putting together a 27-game winning streak — the
"I'm thankful for being here, for the organization, the coaches, the fans," Harris said. "I just look forward to grow from it and come back next year even more ready. We're just building on everything to be a better team."
Wade has been sidelined for much of the past couple weeks while recovering from bone bruises around his right kneecap. He announced about an hour before the game that he would play, citing a need to improve his conditioning before Game 1 of the postseason.
"It's not a fluke," Magic coach
Jacque Vaughn said. "He's done it on a consistent basis for us. And he's improved ... he's gotten better along the way."
Nik Vucveci had 20 points and 13 rebounds for Orlando. Only once have the Magic won fewer games in a season — their inaugural year, going 18-64 in 1989-90.
"Now we start the real thing." Wade said.
Tobias Harris scored 19, Beno Udhril scored 12, Andrew Nicholson scored 12, E'Twaun Moore had 11 and Maurice Harkless finished with 10 for the Magic.

HANNAH BARLING
HAPPY 'HOLIDAZE'
HANNAH BARLING
hbarling@kansan.com
Ashley Martin celebrated the "holidaze" this weekend with friends by relaxing in a mellow atmosphere. The Shawnee sophomore has smoked marijuana since she was a sophomore in high school. She has celebrated 4/20 multiple times and said now it's more of a chill thing for her to do with friends who enjoy the same pastime as her.
April 20, also known as 4/20, has become a national day of smoking for weed enthusiasts. Martin said that she usually tries to ration out her stash to stay productive during
the school week,
but Saturday was different.
She said she bought
more and wanted
to share with all
of her friends.
Martin is diagnosed with obsessive-compulsive disorder and said that she thinks smoking help
dents from San Rafael High School in California in the '70s.
The Waldos — a group of friends named after its meeting spot at a wall outside the school — coined the term in 1971. The article also said all five students were athletes and would meet up after practice each day at 4:20 p.m. to smoke.
The term spread after becoming a code for smoking within the group. One of the Waldos' parents took care of real estate for the Grateful Dead. Because of the connection, the Waldos had access to Grateful Dead parties and rehearsals. Steve Capper, one of the Waldos, said in the article that the teenag-
said the Naismith RAs are more lenient about their residents smoking marijuana inside the dorm than the RAS at Corbin. The residents know they're lenient and aren't afraid, she said.
"A lot of the time I get anxious and smoking helps calm me and my thoughts down," Martin said.
Nineteen states have legalized the use of marijuana for medical reasons. Washington and Colorado have legalized marijuana for recreational uses also, according to procon.org.
The procedure for disciplining residents who smoke marijuana in the dorms is an instant write-up. Banks said the first write-up is basically a warning, but two write-ups result in 10 hours of community service.
Douglas County is ranked among the top-five county leaders of marjuana possession in Kansas, according to an article on drug-science.org. The report also said that marijuana made up 60 percent of drug-related arrests in Kansas in 2007.
Banks said the RAs try not to connect students' parents on the first offense in order to teach them responsibility.
There have been several rumors about how 4/20 started, but according to Huffington Post, the term traces back to five high school stu-
"A lot of time I get anxious and smoking helps calm me and my thoughts down."

Sophomore from Shawnee
ers would always be backstage and would use the phrase. Capper said when someone would pass a joint, they would say "Hey, 4:20," and it caught on through the community.
Marijuana use
is illegal in Kansas, but that doesn't stop people from smoking. Amber Banks, a senior from Broadview, Ill., lives at Naismith Hall.
Banks lived in Corbin Residence Hall her freshman year and said there weren't very many times she smelled marijuana in the dorm. She
Despite the 4/29 holiday
past weekend, Banks said she didnt notice an increase in marijuana use in the dorm.
According to a national survey on drug use and health by the Center for Behavioral Health Statistics and Quality in 2009, 26.9 percent of Kansans between 18 and 25 years old have smoked marijuana in the past year. Of those surveyed, 14 percent of the age group reported marijuana usage within the last month, a 1 percent increase from 2008.
Colorado law states that people 21 and older may possess one ounce or less of marijuana and marijuana accessories for personal use, according to regulatemarijuana.org. Colorado residents may also grow up to six plants if the products stay on the premises they are grown on and are not made available for sale. Smoking weed in public places and driving under the influence remain illegal.
About 18 percent of adults in the country between the ages of 18 and 25 reported to have used marijuana within the last month, about a 1 percent increase from the previous year.
Washington legalized possession and distribution of marijuana of up to one ounce or less for adults 21 and older, according to csmonitor.com. Smoking weed in public and driving under the influence also remains illegal in this state.

Students display South Asian culture at Jayhawk Jhalak
JENNA JAKOWATZ
iiakowatz@kansan.com
Robert Czyz, a senior from Chicago, didn't look quite right for the part of emcee for Jayhawk Jhalak, the South Asian Student Association's annual talent show.
Czyz's emcee counterpart, Viraj Amin, a recent graduate from Shawnee, even joked that Czyz was the first white emcee the talent show has had.
Even though Czyz doesn't have any South Asian heritage, he has attended the talent show since he was a freshman to experience a culture he hadn't be exposed to.
Czyz first learned about the event through Amin because the two were roommates his freshman year.
"You get to experience a different culture, hear different music and learn from it." Czvz said.
Amin was a member of the South Asian Student Association
Jayhawk Jhalak invited performers of all types to showcase their talents to an audience at the Lawrence Arts Center Sunday afternoon.
for the four years he attended the University and is still active in the group today.
"This is an opportunity for people to see a different style of music, fashion, dance and culture that you wouldn't normally see." Amin said.
BANGLADIST DANCE THEATER
Patel is a member of KU Jeeva, a competitive fusion dance team. KU Jeeva closed out the talent show with one choreographed piece featuring several different styles of舞 mixed together.
Seema Patel, a junior from Topeka, was one of those performers.
Patel performed in last year's talent show and said this year's had a much larger turnout. "Jayhawk Jhalak is important because
in America, we all come from different backgrounds," Patel said. "This is a way to keep our culture alive."
The fashion show that followed Ravi featured fashion styles popular in India, Bangladesh, Nepal, Pakistan and Sri Lanka.
The show opened with the Lawrence KI Lailas, a freshman dance team, and then led into dance ensemble Papu KI Lau Story, and then singer Anjeli Ravi.
After a short intermission, there were two singing acts and three more dance acts to round out the afternoon. All of the dance performers wore South Asian attire.
Czyz said the talent show has grown immensely from when he first saw it as a freshman.
Performers strike a pose during the fashion show act in the Jayhawk Jalak on Sunday at the Lawrence Arts Center. The University South Asian Student Association presents the show every year to celebrate South Asian culture.

"It left a great first impression on me, and that's why I keep coming back," Czyz said.

Engineering expansion to destroy Burt Hall
REID EGGLESTON reggleston@kansan.com
A building formerly associated with the Cold War and nuclear weapons will be demolished this summer as a casualty of the ongoing expansion of the University's School of Engineering.
Burt Hall, constructed in the late 1950s, once served as the University's home of radiation and nuclear engineering programs. It originally housed a nuclear reactor active through the 1970s and the peak of the Cold War.
"The engineering school and biophysics departments here used the radiation sources from the mid-'60s through the '70s," said Mike Russell, director of the University's Department of Environmental Health and Safety. "After that time, the school wasn't really engaged in that kind of research anymore, so the reactor was decommissioned and the numbers in radiation programs curtailed"
PAGE 3
Today, Burt Hall houses offices for chemical and petroleum engineering professors, administrative
offices and Russell's Department of Environmental Health and Safety Services. Those with offices in Burt will move out to various locations on Main and West Campus by May 1.

As a part of the

state's initiative to increase the number of engineers across Kansas, the space that Burt leaves will be occupied by a new facility that will wrap around the future Materials, Measurements, and Sustainable Environment Center and Learned Hall, according to Cody
JOANN BROWNING School of Engineering associate dean
in the facility's six new classrooms will sit at tables of five colleagues rather than at desks to promote collaboration on projects and boost information-sharing. Students will also see a shift to lecture material posted online so that they can pose questions about the material in class.
The $80 million dollar project is set to open on campus in the fall of 2015. An additional building devoted to large-scale testing will
be completed on West Campus in the fall of 2014, all of which are part of the School of Engineering's Building on Excellence Initiative, designed to augment the number of engineering graduates by 60 percent.
"Before a bond issue on this facility in 2009, we had a number of engineering firms in Kansas City come to Topeka and say, 'We need more engineers'," said School of Engineering associate dean of administration JoAnn Browning. "In response to that, we have about half the funding for this new facility coming from the state."
The Building on Excellence Initiative is already underway as the new Materials, Measurements and Sustainable Environment Center will open next fall to engineering students. Modifications to other buildings are also a part of this ever-evolving plan. Spahr Engineering Library, following the model of Anschutz Library, will devote more of its resources to collaborative learning, including more group study space and availability of staff to help students with engineering-related problems.
While final design plans for the new facility will be announced May 1, Browning encourages students to remain active in the planning process through the building's completion.
"We're still looking at furniture options," Browning said. "We want to know what chairs and couches around the building will help students relax and, yet, learn the best. We're always looking for student input, because that's who we're building this for."

Environs launches 'Take Back the Tap'
EMILY DONOVAN
Reusable water bottles is Environs' next step to save the planet — or, at least, the campus. Environs, the student organization dedicated to promoting environmental awareness and activism, launches its Take Back the Tap initiative tomorrow night to move toward a disposable bottle-free campus.
edonovan@kansan.com
The initiative will provide infrastructure to sustainably provide safe, filtered water with a term that college students can relate to: free stuff. Six hydration stations will be implemented in the most highly trafficked areas, including the Underground, Budig and Anschutz this fall. Environs also plans to hand out thousands of stainless steel water bottles during Hawk Week to encourage students to carry their own water bottle
throughout the day rather than purchase bottled water.
"It's socially irresponsible of us to waste water and commodify it the way that we do when so many
people don't have access to clean drinking water," said Sarah Kraus, a junior from Allen. Texas and Environs president.
Sustainability,
Kraus said, is no passing
fad. The
Coca-Cola Company allocated $3,000 to help fund the six stations and an additional $3,000 to help fund the water bottles. The Office of the Student Body President has agreed to cover the remaining funds needed for the hydration stations, which cost $1,700 each.
Kraus wants to provide 6,000 water bottles this fall, but they would cost $17,000. She is currently looking for an additional $14,000 to supplement the fund-

As only 20 percent of the 80 million bottles of water sold daily in the United States are recycled, the bottled water industry creates waste that jeopardizes the environment. "Reduce, reuse, recycle," is a slogan Kraus expects to hear
"We've reached a pinnacle of unsustainable lifestyles," Kraus said. "This is the initial response to a problem we're going to have to be dealing with for a very long time."
more as the public realizes the environment's safety benefits them personally.
"Tapped," a documentary following the bottled water industry's effect on communities and production from ocean to landfill, will be shown at Liberty Hall on Tuesday at 7 p.m., free of charge. KU Environs meets every Wednesday at the Ecumenical Campus Ministries building at 5:30 p.m. Anyone interested in sustainability or environmental issues is encouraged to attend.
Edited by Hannah Wise
THE WHOLE STORY ABOUT WATER BOTTLES:
80 million bottles of water are sold daily in the U.S.at 10,000 times the price of tap water.
Only 20 percent of recycled bottles are actually recycled; the other 80 percent end up in landfills or the ocean.
Bottles are filled, using three times more water in making the bottle than in filling it.
40 percent of bottled water is just filtered tap water.

President Obama needs to reschedule visit
Dear President Obama,
I understand you had to change your schedule
to accommodate visiting Boston last week in the aftermath of marathon bombings. However, it greatly saddened me to hear you were no longer going to visit lajvahk nation.
Don't get me wrong, I completely understand your decision to cancel your flight to Kansas, and I would have been shocked had you continued with your previous schedule. Americans came together to support those affected by last week's tragic events, and we jayhawks were among them. The president must show up in the wake of tragedy to give everyone hope with the knowledge that
everything that can be done will be done in the name of justice.
After the news broke Saturday of your visit to the beautiful University campus, everyone was excited because the president was coming. However, as the news spread about the unfortunate events at the Boston Marathon, I was instantly hesitant to believe you would visit and was not surprised with your announcement to cancel. You have a duty to Americans to lead us in diplomacy, combat, mourning and celebration. Your presence at the interfaith ceremony in honor of the victims of the bombings was necessary, and I backed your play.
Now,it's time to reconsider your visit to the Land of Oz.1
By Jordan Warren
jwarren@kansan.com
understand you are a busy man. I know you spend most of your days in meetings with various staff members, diplomats, department heads, agency leaders, etc. I hope you have a few minutes to visit with your wife and daughters. Nevertheless, I also hope you see the need to reschedule a time when you can take a trip to the Midwest.
You could even make it a family vacation. Bring everyone here, to the place where your mom was born. Kansas is the land of crazy weather, loyal sports fans and great barbeque. I know you enjoyed the cuisine on your campaign visit in 2010, so bring the fam and let them try a taste. I bet Sasha and Malia would love Worlds of Fun or adventuring through L-town as you continue with your official agenda.
So, come on. Bring everyone down, and we'll teach you what being a Jayhawk is all about. The hills may be a hassle and we may get a little vocal on the sidelines, but we have big hearts and a fierce American pride. You know of KU's sports history, and I'm sure you are aware of our research accolades. Now, you need to witness why KU is considered the Ivy League of Kansas. We bleed crimson and blue because those colors represent two of the oldest, and most respected, educational institutions in the nation.

Sincerely, Jordan Warren
Rock Chalk Jayhawk! I look forward to hearing from you soon.
Warren is a junior majoring in journalism from Overland Park
P. S. I suggest making your visit public and holding it in Allen Fieldhouse, home of the Jayhawks.
Remember the lesser known tips for career interviewing
Let's cut to the chase. There are thousands of articles out there about what to do and what not to do in order to have a perfect interview.
Sure, there are a few good tips among them, and they definitely worth reading. But to be honest, once you've read a few, you've read them all. They all tend to cover things like "show up on time," "dress professionally," "don't lie" (that's always my favorite). I always wonder if people really needed an article to tell them that) and "be yourself." The topics they address are important, but once you have a good handle on the average interview, they stop applying to every situation.
By Anna Wenner
awenner@kansan.com
Then there are the things I'll be talking about. The things no one seems to mention because they don't seem like the "right" advice. Who knows? Maybe I'm the only one who thinks these things are important, or maybe I just haven't found the right article. Regardless, here are my top-five recommendations for the future interviewee, all of which come from my (or a friend's) personal experiences.
PLAN TO SWEAT
You're nervous, you're excited and you're terrified when you interview. All of these lead to sweating, which for some can be excessive. For this reason, plan ahead. Make sure you have plenty of antiperspirant on in problem areas (but be mindful not to smell like a deodorant aisle). Also, be sure that your clothing does not show dark spots when you do sweat (which you will). Jackets are especially helpful for this, but remember they also make you warmer, so if you have
a heavy sweater, do not take the jacket off until you are done with your interview. This avoids the embarrassment that invariably comes with visible sweat stains.
DON'T TRY FOR COMEDY
I don't care if you think you're the funniest person in the world, comedy is not your friend in an interview. Comedy is a very specific practice, which is generally tailored to a specific audience, or is done for an audience who has no power over the fate of the comedian. Whatever you think you know about the company's sense of humor is probably wrong — don't kill your chances by making a joke that could be taken the wrong way. (Adding to this, especially avoid sports team and college jokes. Just because you are interviewing in Kansas does not mean you can't run into a Mizzou graduate.)
ASK ABOUT PARKING
Too many times someone knows where the interview is and doesn't think much past the address. Parking is an absolutely necessary thing to consider, but tends to be an afterthought. Some buildings are easily accessible by car, others have very specific "visitor parking" that can often be hard to locate. The last thing you want to be is that person who's late for the interview because they couldn't figure out
how to park. (Also have plenty of quarters in case it is meter parking.) On that note as well, make sure that if the building has multiple entrances, you know which one you are supposed to use.
Trying to side in the "employees only" entrance won't earn you any favors.
BATHROOM BEFORE
After a car trip, and especially when you're nervous, your first instinct is to want to use the bathroom. This is fine and natural, but try not to make the first words out of your mouth when you show up to interview be "Where is the bathroom?" Instead, stop at a gas station or another building near your interview, or before you leave if the interview is close, and use the bathroom there. This avoids the stress of trying to "hold it" during the interview, and avoids an embarrassing first impression.
When you're worried about an interview it's easy to skip a meal, but think twice before doing this. If your stomach is rumbling the entire time you're talking, it's both distracting and embarrassing. Usually it's best to keep as closely to your normal schedule as possible. That being said, consider what you're eating and plan carefully. Try not to drink or eat anything that will make you burp or pass gas during your interview, as these also are not exactly ideal etiquette and can leave you flustered in an instant.

RELATIONSHIPS
Dating exclusively may not be helpful
Alas! That special time of year that is finals week is nearly here again — a magical time characterized by pulling all-nighters in Anschutz Library and quite possibly the greatest excuse to get lazy about shaving. With final projects and tests on the horizon, multitasking already has or will become a way of life for many students until the last exam is done.
Finals week may not inspire romance in all of us, but probably a number of other emotions instead (mental collapse and suddenly re-evaluating your entire life, anyone?) However, when it comes to looking for a relationship, applying the same principles of multitasking in dating can reap some real benefits. Therefore, as this semester concludes, students should ditch the idea that the right way to go about a relationship is to only pursue one person at a time and consider the benefits of playing the field until you think you've hit a homer.
Some people like to find a relationship by putting their energy into one person and waiting to see if it will work. But according to dating and flirting expert Tracey Steinberg, pursuing relationships in this way could be screwing us in the end. Instead, she advocates that serial dating, or dating several people over a period of time, is the best start to finding someone we want to get serious with.
The two may seem like a dichotomy, but Steinberg said people should date multiple partners simultaneously to find quality and quantity in partners and that dating serially on the road to finding a long-term relationship can help them keep some perspective.
In the end, you could wind up happier because you'll have a broader scope of what's out there and can choose a new partner accordingly.

Juggling partners take skill and requires some risk, but until people enter exclusive relationships, they only owe their partners honesty if they are questioned. Here, you can be discreet but vague, suggests Dating: A Survival Guide from the Frontlines author Josey Vogels.
According to the same story featuring Vogels on Cosmopolitan magazine's website, if juggling partners becomes a topic of conversation, you can dodge giving details with a simple. "I'm not looking for monagamy now." The beauty of it is that it's true, a broad statement, and won't necessarily leave your partner trying for more.
CAMPUS CHIRPS BACK
With that said, when students take this approach to settling down with a serious relationship, they must keep in mind that the openness and nonexclusivity of it go both ways. The same article from Cosmopolitan explains that if you're not willing to make a commitment, it's likely that your partner isn't either. If jealousy gets the best of you here, you have to make one of two choices: end the relationship, or do the opposite and nix your serial-dating freedoms.
On the surface, approaching finding a relationship by dating a number of people at once may seem like a behavior several students would want to avoid. It requires risk and skill and can leave people crushed when their partners are also dating several others.
However, just like when we're knee deep into finals, multitasking in dating can reap benefits because it gives us a comprehensive perspective of exactly who out there for the picking.
It spares us time and energy that wed otherwise be spending on all of the Wrongs until we finally find the Rights.
And when we can multi-task in dating like we do at the University, playing the field now to get what we want in the end becomes completely priceless.

HOLLYWOOD review
Past efforts to kick-start DC character franchises have ranged from mild disappointments like "Superman Returns," a bland rehash that relied too heavily on paying homage to Richard Donner's version, to the unmitigated disaster that was "Green Lantern," so I can understand the studio's trepidation. Yet "Man of Steel" feels like a winner for
'Man of Steel' trailer sends fan expectations soaring
University ego-boosting aside, there's a tremendous amount of pressure riding on Snyder's film, with its hefty $225 million price tag and its ability to connect with a worldwide audience. After two decades of relying almost solely on Batman's super earning powers, Warner Bros. executives are using "Man of Steel" as a bellwether for determining whether movies based on other heroes in the DC stable can challenge Marvel Studios following the latter's phenomenal success with "The Avengers."
of Steel" has elicited a strong response from fans eager to witness the return of the original superhero, a deathless icon dedicated to fighting for truth, justice and the American way. The ad also confirms what many within the Phog have suspected for years: the last son of Krypton is a Jayhawk.
T The newest trailer for Zack Snyder's forthcoming Superman reboot "Man
That's right. Pause the trailer at just the right moment and you'll see Clark Kent (Superman's mild-mannered alter-ego for those of you trapped in the Phantom Zone) sporting a faded KU athletics T-shirt. Now I may be a tad biased, but having the Big Blue Boy Scout as an alumnus seems like a perfectly natural extension of his character. Think about it: Superman was raised in the fictional hamlet of Smallville, Kansas, his favorite colors are obviously crimson and blue (and yellow) and everyone knows the Daily Planet recruits directly from our journalism school.
No superhero movie can aspire to greatness, however, without the counterbalance of an equally worthy villain. Enter Michael Shannon, an actor who spent his career crawling into the brains of barely restrained bedlamites in films like "Take Shelter" and HBO's "Boardwalk Empire". Here he's playing the Kryptonian war criminal and prostration enthusiast General Zod, a role imbued with silken menace by Terrence Stamp in 1980's "Superman II." Some would say Shannon has impossibly big shoes to fill. Then again, they said the same thing when Heath Ledger was cast as the Joker.
a number of reasons. First of all, the casting seems spot-on. British actor Henry Cavill certainly has the corn-fed looks and the polite, plainspoken nobility of a consummate Supes. His costar Amy Adams seems equally suited to play the tenacious, evidently far-sighted Lois Lane, while Kevin Costner appears to be channeling his "Field of Dreams" character as Jonathan Kent, the adoptive father responsible for giving Superman his firm moral grounding.
Finally, there's the level of talent working behind the scenes Snyder, who previously helmed "300" and the near-perfect adaptation of "Watchmen," is one of the medium's most promising young visualists, capable of wielding digital effects with all the power and delicacy of a brushstroke on canvas. Also, David S. Goyer's "Man of Steel" screenplay is based on a treatment Goyer developed with executive producer Christo-

pher Nolan, the director of the "Dark Knight" trilogy and the closest thing Warner Bros. currently has to a fairy godfather.
If Batman is the hero we deserve, Superman is the hero we aspire to become. In spite of the myriad issues I have with "The Dark Knight Rises," I sincerely believe Snyder and Nolan will balance each other out when it comes to tackling "Man of Steel." Snyder understands that Superman is meant to serve as an idealized embodiment of what Abe Lincoln called "the better angels of our nature," and his story doesn't require the funereal gloom or clunky, blunt-force cynicism that clogged the last Batman movie. Nolan, on the other hand, has an almost eerie knack for injecting dramatic heft and social relevance into stories that were once considered little more than lurid nonsense.
Want more proof the mythology is in good hands? Look no further than the aforementioned trailer, which ends with Superman's natural father Jor-El (Russell Crowe) bidding an emotional farewell to his infant son while prophesying the influence he'll have on Earth's lesser mortals: "You will give the people an ideal to strive towards. They will race behind you. They will stumble, they will fall. But in time, they will join you in the sun. In time, you will help them accomplish wonders."

Kansas finishes strong, wins final Relays events at home
COLIN WRIGHT
cwright@kansan.com
The finale of the 86th Kansas Relays came down to the men's and women's 4x400 meter relays, and Kansas gave the crowd at Memorial Stadium the finish they were looking for as both Jayhawk squads captured first place.
The women's team of Denesha Morris, Diamond Dixon, Taylor Washington and Paris Daniels, which had recorded the fastest time in prelals, finished with a time of 3 minutes 32.94 seconds, just a second slower than the record the team set in 2012.

The All Stars, comprised of professional sprinters, were neck and
Not wanting to leave the Relays on a sour note, the men's 4x400-meter quartet of DeMario Johnson, Michael Hester, Michael Stigler and Kyle Clemons came from behind to win in a time of 3.07.78.
It was Clemons who ran the anchor and passed Nebraska anchor Cody Rush on the final lap to deliver one of the most dramatic finishes of the season. He looked up to the scoreboard and kicked one last time to hold onto first place.
"I got to get this for my team," Clemons said when asked about
what was going through his mind when he was neck-and-neck with Rush on the final lap. "Just got to get that 'W', got to get that win for the home crowd."
Kansas did get both wins to finish the 86th edition of the storied event. There is more work to be done by Kansas' men and women's teams, but they enjoyed showcasing their talents in front of a home crowd.
Clemons said Saturday would rank as his number-one day as a track and field athlete. "There's no place like home," Clemons said.

Handoffs prove vital as relay team scrapes out home victory

As freshman Ben Brownlee ran down the backstretch at Memorial Stadium, junior Dominique Manley stood near the finish line awaiting his turn to run the final leg of the two-mile relay for the Jay hawks.
Manley took the handoff with a lead of about 10 feet ahead of the second place Iowa Central Community College runner
Kuaniyal Chol, who Manley

was the runner who chased down the Kansas team last year at the Kansas Relays; Manley said he wasn't going to let that happen again.
There were some nerves from the Kansas team, which included Manley, Brownlee and juniors Dalen Fink and Nick Seckfort, who both watched from the infield as Chol passed Manley on the first of two laps. However, Manley was able to stay within close rane.
"I just thought, 'I have to win this for my team." Manley said.
Down the last straightaway of the relay, Manley knew he had enough speed left to pull ahead
"Last year, he caught my teammate. I couldn't let that happen two years in a row." Manley said.
and make his move about 20 meters from the finish.
Kansas finished the two-mile race in 7 minutes 44.08 seconds, just 0.91 seconds ahead of Iowa Central Community College.
It was only the second time during the outdoor season that Kansas has run the two-mile relay, but the runners felt it was a solid race.
Handoffs aren't usually a factor in the two-mile relay, but the four Kansas runners said the handoffs they made were smooth enough without losing speed that it gave them an advantage in the end.
"If it comes down to the wire, it can make a difference," Fink said.

Dixon disappoints, shifts focus to senior season
KANSAS RELAYS
Junior sprinter Diamond Dixon checks her time from the Women's 400 meter Invitational Dash on the final day of the Kansas Relays on Saturday. Dixon placed sixth in the invitational with a time of 53.63 seconds, which would have placed her first in the women's collegiate 400 meter.

Junior sprinter Diamond Dixon has earned more accolades in her time at Kansas than most runners accomplish in their entire careers. She has been a Big 12 champion, a national champion and even an Olympic gold medalist.
On Saturday in the 400 meter invitational of the Kansas Relays, Dixon learned that nothing comes easily against world-class competitors; she finished sixth.
"They're not just gonna give it to me," Dixon said. "I have to work for it."
Dixon expected better than her time of 53.63 seconds.
A year ago, Dixon ran a time of 51.80 and finished second behind Olympic bronze medalist DeeDee Trotter. She was stunned and excited that she had actually competed with professional sprinters. On Saturday, Dixon was disappointed and made no attempt to hide it.
"I don't feel good at all," Dixon said. "I didn't like my time, but it is what it is."
Trotter, who made another trip to the Relays this year, ran in the 400 meter invitational again, but her time was not recorded, as there

was some confusion about whether she was scheduled to compete.
It was Novlene Williams-Mills, a three-time Olympic bronze medalist from Jamaica, who won the race in a time of 51.68 seconds.
"I've heard of her, and from what I've heard, she's a very fierce competitor." Williams-Mills said.
There was some obvious disappointment for Trotter as well, as she finished in the middle of the pack.
Williams-Mills, a 2004 University of Florida graduate, knew about Dixon before Saturday's race from watching indoor nationalals and seeing Dixon run at the 2012 Olympics as part of the 4x400 relay pool.
"I would want a better time, but it's my first race," Williams-Mills said. "It's a good feeling just to do what my training has been for. It's a starting point."
There is a mental and physical test that comes with being a collegiate athlete talented enough to compete in the summer Olympics, as Dixon did this past year.
Dixon still has her eyes set on the 2016 Olympics and said this race is just the beginning of that preparation. The proof that Dixon is capable of competing with the fastest 400 meter runners in the world is still there despite the disappointment she suffered on Saturday.
"I still expect big things from her." Trotter said. "I still see her as one of our future 400 meter stars."
"A lot of people don't understand what it takes to train an extra four to six weeks after your NCAA championships, after Olympic trials, then go compete, then you come home, and sometimes it can play a negative role on your season," said Trotter, who attended the University of Tennessee while also competing for team USA. "She's been in a position where I've been before."
Edited by Allison Hammond
The effects of such a grueling schedule are both mental and physical, Trotter said. She expected to see Dixon go through a phase like this one.

Capturing the top vault was Mary Saxer, who vaulted 14'9". She just failed on her three attempts to reach 15' 1.5". Becky Holliday finished in second place with a vault of 14' 5.25"
Kansas junior Natalia Bartnovskaya, opted to vault against professional athletes at the Relays rather
than the collegiate competition she is used to. The Russian native, who captured the NCAA indoor title last month, finished in third place with a vault of 13" 11.25".
("I was) a little bit unsatisfied," said Bartnovskaya. "Because the last attempt on 14-5 felt really good but the wind is swirling today."
Bartnovskaya said it would mean a lot to her to capture the NCAA outdoor championship next month to claim both NCAA pole vault titles this season.

Daniels said she needs to improve her time for the Big 12 Championship, which starts May 5. She is the reigning Big 12 champion in the 200-meter dash and wants to add the 100-meter title to her name.
This is Daniels' last Kansas Relays, but she said she doesn't want to think about that because it makes her emotional.
Lincoln University junior Latoya King, from Kingston, Jamaica, placed second with 11.78 seconds, and Kansas freshman Tianna Valentine finished .02 seconds later with a time of 11.8 seconds to place third.
"I don't like being emotional," Daniels said. "I'm just doing what I love and enjoying it."
On the men's side, Coffeyville Community College freshman Andres DeGrasse finished first in the men's collegiate 100-meter dash with a time of 10.39 seconds. Second place went to Lincoln University junior Romel Lewis, and third place went to Southwest Baptist senior Deneko Brown. Lewis had a time of 10.43 seconds, and Brown's time was 10.59 seconds.
The third Kansas runner, senior Andrea Geubelle, finished sixth. Geubelle is better known for her performances in the triple jump and long jump events.

Hylton sets Division II record with 400 meter dash victory

Kansas didn't place first in the men's or women's collegiate 400-meter, but Denesha Morris, a Kansas senior, earned a second place victory in the event.
Getting first place in the 400 meter and setting a Division II record in the process was Donna-Lee Hylton of Lincoln College Preparatory Academy with a time of 52.96. Having to come from behind through the last 20 meters, Hylton was able
2
to find her top gear for the win.
“It's hard, it definitely hits you like a brick wall.” Larry said. “It's a good experience, it lets you know where you are [in terms of competition] at from state to state, it's fun.”
"It felt good, it felt real good," Hylton said. "I know that I'm not a really strong starter so I know that in the home stretch I have a lot of speed coming home."
The win was big for Hylton, but the time she did it in was the most rewarding part of the race.
“It's my personal best. I have never run a 52 before so it feels good, it feels great.”
On the men's side, freshman Alfred Larry of Butler County Community College took down the top
spot with a time of 47.59. The lone Jayhawk in the event was Michael Hester, who finished in fifth place. The length of the 400 meter makes this race more challenging than some other events because of the frantic pace.

Glenn Cunningham mile race completed in under four minutes
COLIN WRIGHT
cwright@kansan.com
Cory Leslie broke the four-minute mark in the Glenn Cunningham Mile at the Kansas Relays. He is the sixth person in meet history to achieve that feat. His time on Saturday's windy afternoon was 3 minutes, 58.18 seconds, less than four seconds off Kansas alumus Jim Ryun's Relays record of 3:54.70.
"I wanted to get out here and compete," Leslie said. "It's such a great field but I didn't want to already mentally be beat by the caliber."
Kansas junior Josh Munsch, who set a personal record in the slightly shorter 1500 meters earlier this season with a time of 3:43, fell just short of his goal of reaching the four-mile mark. His time of 4:02.90 was a personal best in the 1600 meters and was good enough for seventh place.
"I'm a little bit frustrated," said Munsch. "but I got a couple more races, I'm mainly focusing on getting to regionals and nationals."
Munsch revealed in the moment as he ran against stiffer competition
than he does on a weekly basis, running toe-to-toe with professionals as opposed to collegiate athletes. He embraced the home crowd and was less than three seconds away from that coveted four minute mile.

"It's pretty awesome," added Munsch. "When they called my name out, I got a lot of love from the crowd, so it was really nice to have that, it's good to be here every once in a while."

Kansas sophomore sets record in men's 400 meter hurdles
GEOFFREY CALVERT
gcalvert@kansan.com
Before the beginning of the men's 400-meter hurdles invitational, Kansas sophomore Michael Stigler and Michael Tinsley, the 2012 Olympic silver medalist in the 400-meter hurdles, went up to Bershawn "Batman" Jackson to exchange pre-race pleasantries.
With a 2008 Olympic bronze medal and seven Kansas Relays titles on his resume, Jackson is a crowd favorite and Relays legend. Tinsley, who said he's "pretty good friends" with Jackson, wanted to lightheartedly let the two-time defending champion know he was coming for him. Stigler's exchange with Jackson was bit more diplomatic.
"I always looked up to him and I told him that before we started and he knows me," Stigler said. "It was just great to go out there and race against him again. It felt like the USA trials over again from last year."
Unlike the 2012 Olympic trials, when Jackson placed fourth and Stigler finished seventh, the collegian came on top on Saturday. So too did Tinsley, who won those Olympic trials, earning himself a spot in London.
Tinsley crossed the Memorial Stadium finish line in 48.77 seconds. Stigler finished close behind at 49.42. As his time flashed on the scoreboard, Stigler broke into a wide smile and raised his
arms in celebration. He wasn't aiming for a particular time on Saturday, but he knew he had just broken the school record in the 400-meter hurdles. He broke his own record, in fact, having set it in 49.45 seconds at the Big 12 Championship last May.
"I knew what my time was

said. "Once

mon, who finished third.
His first time at the Relays began precariously. He arrived in Lawrence Thursday night amid frigid temperatures and decided not to test the track on Friday. He said Saturday's conditions were conducive to running.
"My steps were pretty good today," Tinsley said. "I got out hard, kind of used the wind to my advantage on the backstretch. I wanted to stay real relaxed and comfortable in my race. I was able to come home strong. I knew the kid from KU was coming so

Wortham was familiar with members of the five-runner field, having competed against both Ryan Krais and Wendy Fawn Door while at Tennessee.
"It itches that I'm in good competitive shape and have a strong mindset," Worthham said. "At the end of the race, I had a couple of bad hurdles and the girl on the outside was coming, but I just had to keep my head down and get to that finish line."

STELLA LIANG

With a field that included six teams ranked in the top 20, the Kansas rowing team entered the Lake Natoma Invitational knowing it was going to get a challenge. Out of nine teams that competed Saturday and Sunday in Gold River, Calif., the Jayhawks finished in eighth place, finishing ahead of Sacramento State, who co-hosted the regatta. In total, the Jayhawks won two out of nine races, with all of the wins coming Sunday morning.
Before the regatta, coach Rob Catloth said in a news release from Kansas Athletics that the team needed to accept the challenge.
"We can measure ourselves by how close we are to these teams," Catloth said. "We will see where we are on the national scene. These teams are setting the national standard, and we need to give ourselves
an honest measure against teams of this caliber."
Kansas got the challenge it was expecting. The team didn't have a chance to slowly make its way to the toughest competition, as its first
urday morning came against top-ranked University of Southern California and 12th ranked Notre Dame. Kansas had faced Notre Dame once before this year, falling to them at

The afternoon set of races against ninth-ranked Stanford and 17th-ranked Washington State saw Kansas once again falling in each race. After Saturday's races, Cattle said in a news release that the team adapted and raced better
in the afternoon.
Stanford won the varsity eight and second varsity eight races. Washington State placed first in the varsity four.
The level of competition taped off Sunday for the Jayhawks. They
faced Tulsa and Sacramento State, which are both unranked. The day started with Kansas dropping the varsity eight race. Tulsa finished first, and Sacramento State finished second.
The Jayhawks finished the regatta strong by winning their last two races, the second varsity eight and varsity four against Tulsa and Sacramento State. Sacramento State finished second and Tulsa finished third in the second varsity eight. Those two standings were reversed in the varsity four race.
The other participants in the invite were second-ranked California, which was the other co-host team, and 15th-ranked Wisconsin.
The teams rowed on Lake Natoma in the Sacramento State Aquatic Center April 20-21. The Jayhawks are preparing for the Big 12 Championship in two weeks in Kansas City, Kan.

Going into the weekend, the Kansas tennis team was in the midst of a losing streak spanning two seasons. With solid matches on Friday and Sunday, the streak is over, and the lajhawks are now 2-7 in the Big 12.
Before Friday's match against West Virginia, Kansas had a 21-game conference losing streak

out too. They finished as the only teams below Kansas in regular season play.
For the Jayhawks to be successful, doubles play is key and they demonstrated how good they can be when the winning starts early. This weekend they took three of the six doubles play matches, with another win coming by way of forfeit, which was good enough for a 1-0 start both days.
After struggling in singles play during the past several opponents, Kansas showed poise in the last two matches by winning seven of the 12 singles matches. Freshmen Anastasija Trubica and Maria Jose Cardona were both able to get sim-
beat Emma Waites and Caroline Andersen (8-1) in doubles play. Khanevskaya was unable to win her last match at Jayhawk Tennis Center, losing in singles play to Emma Waites (3-6, 6-1, 6-4), but the team win
was big for her
"It feels amazing," Khanevskaya said after the match. "When we won the doubles point, I was really impressed with how everyone competed. I was playing my (singles) match, and when I realized we won the whole match, I got so happy because I knew it was my Senior Day. Inside, I really wanted to beat Iowa State because we lost to them last year and I wanted to battle back."
The Jayhawks will look to extend the season as Big 12 tournament play starts Thursday against the Cyclones in Norman, Okla.

With two hurdles left, Cumberbatch and Haye battled to the finish line, with Cumberbatch beating her teammate by .65 seconds, 59.17 seconds to 59.82 seconds.
Cumberbatch said going into the race, she thought her only competition was her teammate. She said she had a lot of nerves before the race and that she was preparing to have a tight race with Haye. After the race, Cumberbatch said she initially felt excited, but realized her time wasn't where she wanted it to be.
Haye, a senior, was the only athlete who qualified with a time of less than one minute. Cumberbatch, who is also a senior, has now won this event at the Kansas Relays for the second time in a row and the third time overall. Cumberbatch said it felt good to be a three-time champion.

THE MORNING BREW Boston embodies 'runner's spirit' in bombing aftermath
No matter your age, race, sex, sexual orientation, income status, height, weight, political ideology, denomination, there is one thing we can all share. There is one thing we often do share: finishing a race can be one of the most exhilarating, successful feelings we can experience as humans.
Before the gun goes off and we all toe the starting line, the course presents an obstacle for us all, and when we all finish, we feel unified, no matter our minor differences. In the end, we all conquered the same feat.
By Daniel Harmsen
dharmsen@kansan.com
There are a lot of things I don't know, but this is one of the few things I do know: the post-race celebration at 5ks, 10ks, half and full marathons is nothing short of euphoric.
See, it's not about how long it took you to finish. It's not about "beating" those around you. It never really is. It's about finishing the race. It's about challenging yourself to set a personal best. It's about getting through pain. Temporary pain. It's about overcoming that little voice in your head that tells you to quit.
As runners who had trained their
whole lives to finish the Boston Marathon approached that 26.2-mile marker — the finish, the zenith, the culmination of those years of training— they experienced unfiltered, unrestrained joy. They swelled with pride in themselves and the runners around them. They were frazzled and dizzy, but nothing could come between them and the finish line. They shared that common goal, and they were going to pull each other toward it.
--people you'll meet. The few minutes they allot to "me-time" is spent running up and down hills for miles on end until they reach the point of complete, utter exhaustion. The time they have to relax, they instead spend (as non-runners see it) torturing themselves. In no way do I intend to be sacrilegious, but does that not sound "Christ-like?"
At 2:15 p.m. on April 15, I received a text message from ESPN telling me there were two bombings at the Boston Marathon. Those runners, so close to the tape, did not finish the race of their dreams.
I was in class at the time, but instantly, I felt nauseous. That nausea turned to anger. That anger spawned remorse.
I would say that runners are some of the nicest, most innocent people in the world. And there is science to back me up. When you reach that natural runner's high from the release of endorphins throughout your body, you won't hurt a fly.
Many runners had their life-long dreams crushed by a senseless act of terror. Three spectators were killed in the bombing, including an 8-year-old boy, and hundreds were injured. Many of those people were critically injured, losing the limbs that carried them just short of the finish.
KU
The hard work these people put in on the trails in preparation for this event transcends the race. They work hard at their jobs as chemists, pilots, business people and school teachers. They are good family people who raise their children, our future leaders, and look after their parents and grandparents. They are members of the community who volunteer and help the less fortunate.
These are some of the most selfless
The Boston Marathon included, these races as a whole support physical health and fitness, and proceeds help support charitable organizations. Race days are like holidays, and they give people a sense of community.
Two lone wolves tried to bring Boston down. But Boston fought back with compassion for one another. Boston embodies that runner's spirit.
Let us not forget those who have fallen, and let us not quit running. Persevere. Boston Strong.

Series loss against OSU due to offensive shortfalls

The Jayhawks softball team lost two of the three games in a highly competitive series against Oklahoma State this weekend.
Kansas' hitters bested Oklahoma
State in all three games of the weekend series, but dropped the series opener and series finale. Both of the games that Kansas lost this weekend came
Smith
down to the final outs with the bases loaded. The Jayhawks lost both games by a 3-1 deficit, leaving the bases loaded in both of the losses. Kansas brought the bats in the second game of the series winning 9-7.
Coach Megan Smith said that the series boiled down to the Jayhawk offense, which was just not good enough in all three games to be successful.
"It came down what team got the clutch hits," Smith said. "Oklahoma State got the clutch hits and we didn't."
In game one of the series, the Jayhawks recorded six hits while the Cowgirls posted four, but all
three of the Cowgirls runs were scored on two home runs. Kansas was poised for a comeback as the Jayhawks loaded the bases in the top of the seventh, but the Cowgirls held on for the 3-1 win Friday night at Cowgirl Stadium.
The Jayhawks brought the bats to game two of the series in what turned out to be a high scoring thriller. The Jayhawks overcame a 4-1 deficit to hand the Cowgirls a 9-7 defeat. Freshman Alex Hugo was huge for the Jayhawks in game two she had three hits, four RBIs and two homeruns. The two homers tied her with former Jayhawk Jessica Moppin for the most by a KU freshman (11).
In the series finale, the layhawks bested the Cowgirls on hitting for the third straight game, but fell short 3-1. The layhawks were once again poised to make a rally in the seventh and final inning but failed to score once again with the bases loaded. Senior pitcher Kat Espinosa started all three games for the Cowgirls, notching two victories in her three starts. Despite surrendering six hits and five walks in the final game, Espinosa was still able
"I was told I tied the record so it's not that impressive; it would be more impressive if I broke it," Hugo said. "But it was good to get back into the groove of hitting and playing softball."
to come away with the victory.
A wild play that lead to an interference call on Kansas' second baseman Ashley Newman helped Espinosa notch the victory. Newman laid down a sac bunt, and was struck with the ball as the OSU defense attempted to throw her out. The ball ricocheted off Newman and into right field, allowing the game-tying runs to score. The call was reversed when Newman was called out on interference, forcing both base runners to return to the bases.
"The difference this weekend was when we had runners in scoring position we didn't score and they did," left fielder Maggie Hull said. "They were very tough losses because we really felt like we outplayed them and wanted to come out with the series win, but all we can do is go out and fight against UMKC. This just makes the Baylor series that much more important in terms of our goal this postseason."
Despite the loss, Sunday marked a monumental day for two Jayhawk seniors, as Hull and first baseman Mariah Montgomery made their 200th-consecutive start. They are the first players in the Megan Smith era to reach this milestone.

gunsch on both sides of the fairways, but really, the key is around the greens," Gilbert said. "Limiting double bogeys and missing on the right side of the pin so you can get up and down is really the key out there."
As technical as Gilbert makes it sound, being patient is the main focus for Bermel's squad.
"There's not a lot of birdie opportunities out there," Bermel said. "I'm sure the weather will be windy, cold, rainy, whatever, so a lot of elements and a lot of competition. We got a big task at hand."
Bermel did leave out one element: snow. Flurries are in the forecast for early Tuesday in the wake of scattered thunderstorms predicted for this evening. Also, both days are forecasted to have winds above 20 mph. However, this could all work to Kansas' advantage.

COMMENTARY Memorable moments create special event
By Colin Wright cwright@kansan.com
The atmosphere surrounding the 86th running of the Kansas Relays felt different this week.
end than those of the past. However, it was no a single event that changed the feel of this historic track and field meet.
On top of that, ESPN aired the men's shot put competition with the event's conclusion featuring a Rubick's Cube contest with senior men's basketball player Kevin Young.
It might have been the men's shot put and women's long jump that were moved at the last minute to the Douglas County Fairgrounds. In both events Olympic athletes competed in a livestock pavilion before a standing-room-only crowd.
- Or maybe it was the ground breaking at the University's new Rock Chalk Park. The eighty-six year old Kansas Relays will likely bid farewell to Memorial Stadium after the park is completed. The stadium has been the Kansas Relay's home ever since it's inception in 1927.
It could've been the unusually cold April weather that kept the track and field athletes bundled up in sweats and blankets until it was time to compete. After all, the high on Thursday and Friday was 40 degrees. When the temperatures on Saturday increased, performances on the track did as well.
Kansas fans are used to stellar performances on the track, especially from the women's track and field team that captured a conference championship for the first time in 30 years last month when it won the Big 12 indoor championship. The team has held the No.1 ranking in the nation for the last month and the women showed no signs of letting go of that spot anytime soon during the Relays.
This is the only home meet of the outdoor season for the Jayhawks and their best chance to perform in front of family and friends, so maybe that showed more than usual.
It was a momentous weekend for Ohio State graduate Cory Leslie. He ran in the Glen Cunningham Mile and became the sixth winner in Kansas Relays history to run a mile in under four minutes.
Four Paralympians ran the 100 meters in less than 12 seconds and showed what true determination and a never-give-up attitude can do. It was an inspiring sight to see at one of the premire track and field events in the Sunflower State.
The Kansas men's distance medley relay team continued its success in the middle distance captured the championship for the third straight year, adding to the Jayhawks' expectations of excellence.
Olympic silver medalist Michael Tinsley ran the 400 meter hurdles in 48.77 seconds for the fastest time in the world this year.
The Relays are a unique experience for Kansas athletes because it gives them a chance to compete against professional athletes and Olympians like Tinsley instead of their collegiate peers.
All in all, six Kansas Relays records were broken or equaled this weekend. That's quite the feat considering the how old the event is, but at the same time the science of track and field has changed a lot since the Relays began so one can only expect for athletes to push the human body further to break more and more records each year.
To cap off the 86th Kansas Relays, the laj Hawk men and women's teams swept the 4x400 meter relays in the final races of the four days of competition that saw over 5,000 high school, college and professional athletes compete.

The Kansas baseball team high fives junior Ka'iana Eldredge after his run in Saturday's game against the Texas Longhorns. Eldredge scored the team's only run in the 2-1 loss.
The Red Raiders snapped their nine-game loss losing with their victory in the final game of the series. Texas Tech freshman designated hitter Jarrard Potente led the Red Raiders at the plate with a 4-for-5 performance that included
Price
a double and three RBIs.
Kansas quickly relinquished the lead in the bottom of the second when Texas Tech junior center fielder Devon Conley's two-run RBI single put the Red Raiders in the lead 4-3. The Jayhawks responded quickly, posting two runs in the top of the third on sacrifice flies from senior first baseman Alex DeLeon and senior third baseman Jordan Dreiling.
The Jayhawks opened the high scoring affair with three runs in the first inning scored on a two-run single from sophomore right fielder Dakota Smith.
The Red Raiders then tied the game in the third before taking the lead on a Poteete double. Tech players never looked back, scoring eight runs over the last three innings.
The Jayhawks continue to experiment with the Sunday starter in a pitching rotation looking for one more solid arm.
"Obviously it's disappointing," Price said. "We scored three in the first and then turn around and turn around and give four runs up. When we went to the bullpen late in the game we just couldn't stop the bleeding."
Sophomore pitcher Robert
Kahana stepped into the Sunday starter's role against Texas Tech. Kahana pitched two and twothirds innings giving up seven hits, earning five runs and recording one strikeout.
The pitching struggles continued when Drew Morovick gave up three earned runs in three and one-third innings eventually being credited for the loss. The last rotation spot remains in question as the season wears into the stretch run.
"It's a really hard one, a hard decision to make," Price said. "Surely we have to pitch better than that to stay where we're at in the standings. I may have to look at putting Duncan back in the rotation and getting him in rhythm again, because that's four good outings in the past few weeks."
Kansas' pitching staff is remaining positive in the search to solidify the third spot in the rotation. For the staff, it's a team effort on and off the field.
"We just have to stay behind them," junior closer Jordan Piche'i said. "We have to let them know that everybody in the dugout is behind them. Hopefully that gives them the confidence to get back to throwing strikes. We were all here

for each other and we're a team so we've always got our backs."
The team isn't changing its mindset with the new-found pressure of contending in the conference.
"We're not really looking at
numbers," Piche" said. "We just want to go out and win and put up the numbers that we can. At the end of the day, a win in a ball game puts us at the top. We just have to take it inning by inning. I don't think it's that big of deal."
The Jayhawks play Oral Roberts Tuesday in their next home game with a 6 p.m. first pitch at Hoglund Ballpark.

A CONNECTED COMMUNITY
HARVEST SEASON
Through compost, students give to local food bank
MARSHALL SCHMIDT
mschmidt@kansan.com
Throwing out leftovers may feed the less fortunate - eventually.
The University's campus garden uses cempost from food waste donated by scholarship halls as fertilizer. The campus garden donates its produce to those who could not otherwise afford it through Just Foods, the Douglas County food bank.
Brittany Hodges, a sophomore from Leawood, said the garden, located at 13th and Louisiana Street, is part of a larger effort to promote community service and environmental conservation. Hodges is the coordinator for the Earth program, a division of the University's Center for Community Outreach (CCO)
"Growing food uses so much energy with the machinery, irrigation and transportation." Hodges said. "This is a way to teach students how to grow their own food, reduce their carbon footprint and save money."
Student volunteers already
planted seeds last week and hope to harvest lettuce, radishes, squash, basil, chives and green onions when summer comes. Hodges said.
While only three to four students volunteer weekly at the garden, nearly 5,000 students volunteer in 13 organizations for between 7,000 and 9,000 hours annually through the CCO, said Jill Wenderton, executive director for CCO.
Wenderott, a junior from Alma, said the variety of volunteer opportunities match differing passions in students, which, along with the campus garden, include working on art projects with preschool-age children, serving at the Lawrence Community Shelter or teaching music lessons to junior high or elementary school students.
"Through service, I've come to feel much more connected to the community," Wenderott said. "A lot of students who are involved in ways in which that pertain to their future career in their community."
While Vivian Choong a sopho
more from Overland Park, helps out with the campus garden when she can, she also tutors high school students from low socioeconomic status for five hours each week.
"I want to be a teacher, so it's good experience working with kids," Choong said.
Through the program, Upward Bound, Choong accumulates plenty more volunteer hours than the required 10 each semester through her sorority, Alpha Chi Omega.
But for Eric Becker, a freshman from Norton, volunteering at the campus garden is not about accumulating volunteer hours at all. Becker sees the donated produce as helping others, promoting sustainable living and eating healthier.
"If students grow their own garden, they could eat healthier because fresh produce is readily available," Becker said.
WHY DON'T THEY JUST SHARE THE HEDGE?

Relay for Life honors cancer survivors
EMILY DONOVAN
edonovan@kansan.com
Grandmothers, sisters, co-workers, uncles, mothers and complete strangers will be honored, entertained and aided at the University's 10th annual Relay for Life Friday night through Saturday morning.
"Nobody really understands the impact cancer has on so many people until you see it with your own eyes," said Erin Frazier, a senior from Andover and Relay for Life's Event Co-Chair.
In years past, the overnight event has raised $30,000 to $40,000 to benefit the American Cancer Society's services throughout Douglas County and research at the University of Kansas Medical Center.
The high-energy opening ceremonies will start at 6 p.m. At midnight, a Luminaria Ceremony with candle lighting will remember those lost to cancer. At the Fight Back Ceremony at 1 a.m., participants will take a personal pledge to make a difference in the fight against cancer. Free food will accompany both serious moments
and games of dodgeball.
Bre Kirkhart, the other event Co-Chair, also a senior from Andover, has a similar history working to fundraise and fight.
Cancer wasn't a big surprise considering her family history. Moser anticipated a lumpectomy and a minor radiation therapy. However, the size of her tumors and extent of her diagnosis was more severe than she had expected. Moser faced surgery and 16 weeks of chemotherapy treatment for stage II aggressive breast cancer, pre-ovarian cancer and then thyroid cancer in 2004.
After her mom, Michelle Moser, heard about the event during a chemotherapy treatment session, Kirkhart proceeded to volunteer with Relay for Life in Andover throughout high school.
With more than 500 students expected to volunteer, Frazier believes the fight against cancer is both personal and universal. Her grandmother was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2004.
Disobeying her doctor's recommendation to rest, Moser snuck into the office between rounds of chemotherapy. Her wig matched
her original hair so closely that her co-workers didn't even notice that she had had a friend shave her head when her hair began to fall out. When she developed a blood clot, she wore long sleeves to cover the peripherally inserted central catheter secured by transparent tape in her forearm.
Thanks to a handful of close friends, Moser never went to an appointment or treatment by herself. Having just settled a divorce, Moser was in disbelief that her kids — Kirkhart just starting high school and her son just starting college — would have to go through cancer with her.
"It's so rare if you know somebody that hasn't been touched by cancer," Moser said.
"I truly do not think that our caregivers get enough support," Moser said. "Yes, we are the ones vomiting, but they're the ones that have to watch us and stand by helplessly. There's nothing they can do to make it better. I can't even imagine how hard it was on Bre because she was there with me every time, after every treatment."
lap on the track to upbeat music at Relay for Life is meant to be both a celebration and demonstration of how many people have fought with cancer. That's what the event is all about: celebrating survivors' victories, remembering those lost and fighting back.
The 462 registered participants have already raised more than $26,000 to benefit the American Cancer Society.
Individual registration for Friday's Relay for Life at 6 p.m. at Memorial Stadium is still open. One person from each of the 60 registered team should be walking the track at all times while the rest of the participants can relax in their tents.
Moser is in remission and now runs 5Ks and 10Ks. Her first Relay for Life in Lawrence was to support her daughter's involvement in organizing the event. She has continued to make the trip to Lawrence each year, impressed by the growing numbers of young adults working to support the cancer patients in their lives.

Kindersch said the decision to host Orr was an easy one. After proposing him during the planning discussions, Kindersch said there was an immediate response, and then Orr was contacted to see if he was available.

Hundreds of hours of work and one trip to Minneapolis later, Lauren Brown has gained national prestige and a nice chunk of change in her pocket: $9,000 to be exact.
Brown, a graduate student from
Hermitage,
Mo., was a member of the
winning team in the Gerald D.
Hines Student
Urban Design
Contest. The competition
asked 149 teams of five multidisciplinary graduate students to design a development solution for the Downtown East neighborhood in Minneapolis. Finalist teams from Yale, Harvard, Ball State, Purdue and Brown's team, including students from UMKC and K-State, met in Minneapolis on April 10 to present their final solutions and compete for the grand prize of $50,000.

Lauren Brown and her teammates Kevin Cunningham, Derek Hoetmer, Kylie Harper and Tyler Knott won the Gerald D. Hines Student Design Contest earlier this month in Minneapolis. Brown and her team competed against 149 groups of five graduate students from colleges all over the nation.
CONTRIBUTED PHOTO
After moving through to the final round, teams had to critically revise their original designs and come prepared with all new boards. For Brown, this meant spending about two months working eight- to 10-hour days, and dedicating her whole spring break working from 8 a.m. to 10 or 11 at night.
what was on our boards."
When they presented to a panel of 11 jurors made up of members of the Urban Land Institute and citizens of Minneapolis, Brown knew they had to be confident in what they had.
"We knew that from all aspects of our project we were going to be looked at through a magnifying glass," she said. "There was a lot more work that went in than just
However, their hard work and bold design changes were ultimately prize-worthy.
"When you do something bold, you take risks and you have to weigh your options," Brown said. "It's always a choice. You always have to leave something out in order to take advantage of something else. Obviously, weighed our options pretty well."
As a part of her competition studio class, Brown gives one or two formal presentations a semester in front of classmates and two to three jurors. Being a part of a prestigious national competition rather than a class presentation meant that the stakes and the nerves were considerably higher.
"It's still intimidating then, but to be in front of 11 people who are nationally, or very well respected and recognized individuals and $50,000 on the line, it's pretty nerve-wracking," Brown said.
In the week and a half leading up to the competition, the team had the opportunity to give four formal mock presentations, which Brown said "helped tremendously."
April 11 consisted of an early breakfast and introduction of the competition, then the teams presented. Brown and her team drew to present first.
"I think that we were all nervous right before, but when we got up there, we nailed it because we had practiced so hard." Brown said. "We felt very confident walking out of there. That was an awesome feeling."
After the 25-minute formal presentation, Brown's team had a four-hour wait followed by a 20-minute question and answer session. The winner was announced almost immediately following the last Q & A.
"The moment was a little bit
anticlimactic." Brown said. "It was almost like, 'Whoa, did that just happen?'
One of her supporters through her journey, Kadim Al Asady, an architecture graduate student from Iraq, said the shock for Brown has been lasting.
"Sometimes when you win, it's not even that great of a feeling because you've exerted so much work," he said. "You realize it after the fact, and I think she's still in that state where she hasn't realized that she won."
Al Asady, who met Brown while tutoring her in 2009, described her as "beyond a perfectionist." He said she was successful because of the hours of hard work she invested in the project.
"It's a direct result of her character and work ethic," he said. "Especially in this profession, you almost have to really exert
that much energy and work into a project for you to accomplish anything. I've yet to see a person do the normal eight-hour day, five days a week and get somewhere."
Although Brown and her team defeated teams from Harvard and Yale, she said they were all congratulatory and supportive of each other. In fact, they spent the evening celebrating together until the clubs closed down.
"We just had the time of our lives," Brown said. "We had a ball."
In addition to networking with other teams, Brown fostered friendships with her team that she hopes will last.
"I actually emailed them this morning," she said. "We were just corresponding about logistics, but I was just like, 'I miss you guys a lot.' They're pretty awesome people."
Brown has a job lined up for the summer in Kansas City, Mo., but is unsure of where she will go or how she will spend the money after graduation. She said she is weighing the options between traveling or studying abroad or practical uses such as paying off loans.
"That's not as fun," she joked.
However, because of her recognition, she has caught the eye of potential employers from coast to coast. She said jurors from Los Angeles and Chicago approached her after the competition.
"It's a great kick start for her career," Al Asady said. "To be an honorable mention in a competition, that's a huge deal, let alone winning it."

CRIME
Accused poisoner goes to trial
ASSOCIATED PRESS
OXFORD, Miss. — Investigators haven't found any ricin in the house of a Mississippi man accused of mailing poisoned letters to President Barack Obama, a U.S. senator and a local judge, according to testimony Monday from an FBI agent.
Agent Brandon Grant said that a search of Paul Kevin Curtis' vehicle and house in Corinth, Miss., on Friday did not turn up ricin or ingredients for the poison. A search of Curtis' computers has found no evidence so far that he researched making ricin.
"There was no apparent ricin, castor beans or any material there that could be used for the manufacturing, like a blender or something," Grant testified. He speculated that Curtis could have thrown away the processor. Grant
Through his lawyer, Curtis has denied involvement in letters sent to Obama, Mississippi Republican Sen. Roger Wicker, and a Lee County, Miss., judge. The letters, bearing a Memphis, Tenn., postmark, were detected beginning April 15.
said computer technicians are now doing a "deep dive" on the suspect's computers after initially finding no "dirty words" indicating Curtis had searched for information on ricin.
Curtis' lawyer said in court that someone may have framed Curtis, suggesting that a former co-worker with whom Curtis had an extended exchange of angry emails may have set him up.
Still, Grant testified that authorities believe that they have the right suspect.
"Given the right mindset and the Internet and the acquisition of material, other people could be
involved. However, given information right now, we believe we have the right individual" he said.
Grant said lab analysis shows the poison is a crude form that could have been created by grinding castor beans in a food processor or coffee grinder.
Federal investigators believe the letters were mailed by Curtis, an Elvis impersonator who family members say suffers from bipolar disorder.
The letters also contained lines from Curtis's Facebook page.
Grant testified Friday that authorities tried to track down the sender of the letters by using a list of Wicker's constituents with the initials KC, the same initials in the letters. Grant said the list was whittled from thousands to about 100. He said Wicker's staff recognized Curtis' name as someone who had written the senator before.

Tsarnaev faces death penalty for bombings
Mourners leave the funeral for Boston Marathon bomb victim Krystle Campbell, 29,
at St. Joseph's Church in Medford. Mass., westward.
BOSTON — Boston Marathon bombing suspect Dzhokhar Tsarnaev was charged in his hospital room Monday with using a weapon of mass destruction to kill, and he could face the death penalty if convicted.
The criminal complaint containing the charges shed no light on the motive for the attack.
ASSOCIATED PRESS
Tsarnaev, 19, was accused by federal prosecutors of joining with his older brother to set off the two pressure-cooker bombs that sprayed shrapnel into the crowd at the finish line last Monday, killing three people and wounding more than 180.
Tsarnev was listed in serious but stable condition at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, unable to speak because of a gunshot wound to the throat. His brother, Tamerlan, 26, died last week in a fierce gunbattle with police.

Tsarnaev was charged with using and conspiring to use a weapon of mass destruction against persons and property, resulting in death.

House spokesman lay Carney san. Carney said that since 9/11, the federal court system has been used to convict and imprison hundreds of terrorists.
In its criminal complaint, the FBI said it searched Tsarnaev's dorm room at the University of Massachusetts-Dartmouth on Sunday and found BBS as well as a white hat and dark jacket that look like those worn by one of one of the suspected bombers in the surveillance photos the FBI released a few days after the attack.
Sen. Dan Coats of Indiana, a member of the Senate Intelligence Committee, said Sunday that Tsarnaev's throat wound raised questions about when he will be able to talk again, if ever. It was not clear whether the wound was inflicted by police or was self-inflicted.
The wound "doesn't mean he can't communicate, but right now I think he's in a condition where we can't get any information from him at all," Coats told ABC's "This Week."

Ryan Trevithick of Montana's Parrot & Exotic Bird Sanctuary reaches for "Love Love," a scarlet macaw that is being reunited with his owner Mike Taylor after 5 years, last Friday.
Man reunited with bird after 5 years
ASSOCIATED PRESS
BUTTE, Mont. — A Great Falls man who lost his macaw in a divorce more than five years ago has been reupholsted with the bird, thanks to an observant friend.
Mike Taylor picked up the 25-year-old bird he calls "Love Love" at Montana's Parrot & Exotic Bird Sanctuary in Butte on Sunday.
Taylor said his wife sold the bird after a nasty divorce. "I've been kind of looking for him the whole time," he said.
A friend of Taylor's, Steven Campbell, recently spotted the bird during a visit to the sanctuary.
It took some time for Campbell to convince Taylor. Then Taylor had to convince sanctuary founder Lori McAlexander. But she said he knew things about the bird that only a previous owner could have known, like it was blind in one eye, said "love love" and liked to play peek-a-boo.
The bird was surrendered to the sanctuary a couple of years ago after it bit a woman so hard she required medical attention,
"I don't even handle him because he will bite me," she said. Love Love appeared to recognize Taylor right away.
"Hangs upside down already, let me grab his beak, does his peeky-boo, likes to tuck his head," said Taylor, who called the reunion "very heart touching."
McAlexander said.
"He's himself again already, he really is. I mean, he (didn't) forget."
Taylor also got the bird's original cage back after searching on Craiglist. A woman who obtained the contents of his ex-wife's storage unit agreed to give him the cage back at no charge.
Taylor said he initially got the bird at a Salt Lake City sanctuary after it was rescued from a woman who reportedly beat it with a broom.
"It's kind of weird how he's getting his bird and the cage," McAlexander said.
Macaws can live up to 50 years, according to the San Diego Zoo.

CAMPUS
Beginning next fall, students will have an extra month to pay their tuition and fees.
A statement from the Comptroller's Office said that tuition and fee due dates will move from Aug. 15 to Sept. 15 for Fall 2013 and from Jan. 15 to Feb. 15 for Spring 2014.
Deadline to pay fees and tuition extended
"These changes in the due date have been made to accommodate changes to the start date of the academic semester," said Katrina Yoakum, comptroller for the University. "This change also allows more time to complete financial aid steps and change course load as needed. No other dates are changing."

Reddit and Boston cause mass delusion
As soon as the Boston tragedy happened, pictures and videos of it began to pop up all over the Internet. With the ubiquity of smartphones and easy Internet access, pictures from the event became pretty much public domain. The free information flow for everyone has reached the criminal realm. The police do not hold exclusivity rights over crime evidences anymore, and it seems like everyone with an iPhone can be an investigator now. Although open access to information is usually positive, it is definitely not in this case. As demonstrated by Reddit's "FindBostonBombers" thread, investigation crowdsourcing might be the easiest path to modern-day witch hunt.
Not long after the bomb went off, Reddit users mobilized on the task of finding the responsible parties. They collected and went through pictures of the event, pointing out supposedly
suspicious behavior, such as not watching the marathon or going through your backpack. Many suspects were identified, some down to the name and Facebook profile. The well-intentioned online investigators seemed to be onto something.
By Arnobio Morelix
arnorliskansan.com
As it turned out, they were wrong.
The thread, now taken down by Reddit editors, did not identify the real suspects arrested by the FBI. Their online "suspects" were actually innocent and completely guiltless people, and their families were hassled and persecuted. The online investigators were wrong, but even if they had been right, crowdsourcing investigation sails into very dangerous waters.
The advocates of investigation crowdsourcing argue that it has the potential to mobilize more people to investigate a crime than the official investigation could ever pay for. That is true. But they overlook potential mass
delusions, one of most dangerous features of social behavior in situations like these.
Mass delusion is not a new phenomenon. The human mind will usually find patterns when it is looking for them. Many cases have been reported, among them the Seattle Windshield Pitting Epidemic.
In April 1954, citizens in the Seattle metro area began to notice previously undetected windshield holes in their cars after a reported vandalism incident. The police got close to 3,000 reported cases in a couple of weeks, and many of the city's residents believed
Although public help could have been useful when processing images, the same group that is passively looking at pictures online could easily be out on the streets searching for the "terrorists," and we have seen that kind of witch hunt before.
it was caused by the action of a gang with a particular fixation for windshields. As it turns out, the holes were actually always there, and there was nothing suspicious about them. But because people were looking for patterns and suspicious holes in their cars, they invariably found them. Online investigators looking at pictures and marking regular bystanders as criminals is nothing but another facet of mass delusion.
In the Boston tragedy case, some of the victims of collective delusion included, among others, the missing Brown University student Sunil Tripathi, a man who became known online as the "Blue Robe Guy," as well as a Saudi man tackled by bystanders and persecuted by the media. Even though all of them turned out innocent, they had already been judged guilty by a deluded section of the public, sure about their suspicions.
There are more Reddit users than investigators in the Boston police, no doubt, and they can process a lot more information. Although investigation crowdsourcing increases speed of processing, the accuracy costs are way too expensive. We ought to be careful! The line between a watchful crowd and a vigilante bias is a thin one. Unfortunately, we have crossed it. Let's hope and work so that we do not cross it again in the future.

Confidence and knowledge are key when buying a car
If you're anything like me, you're perpetually in the market for a new car. I'm constantly browsing the classifieds, daydreaming about how much fun it would be to roll in a stylish new ride. I quickly tire of whatever car I currently own, wondering if there's something affordable out there that'd be more exciting to drive.
By RJ Zeiler
rzeller@kansan.com
OK, it's a really weird obsession, so hopefully you're not like me.
Either way, my automotive attention deficit disorder leads me down more than a few adventures with used car dealers, and I've picked up a few useful bits of advice along the way. If you've tooyed with the idea of buying a new (or used) car, read on.
Before you even think about visiting a dealer, you must identify the car you want and do your research. If you go into a test drive knowing less about the car than the salesman, then you don't know enough. Know that car inside and out, and peruse online forums to determine any common problems with the model you're interested in. Check out car value guides, like Kelley Blue Book and the National Automobile Dealers Association (NADA) to find out exactly what you should pay for your car. A salesman will know if you are unprepared, and many will stretch the truth when they notice your shortcoming.
Next, hit up Craigslist,
AutoTrader, eBay and the like
until you find the right car. In
fact, find several cars that match
your criteria, because they won't
all be perfect. The online pictures
you see are infamous for
hiding blemishes like cracked
windshields and defective air conditioners.
Once you've found a suitable car and set up an appointment to see and drive it, approach the salesman confidently.
Understand your purpose and be ready to explain why you're looking at that certain car, especially if its price is steeper. Dress well for the test drive; I personally like the clean, professional look of jeans and a tucked-in polo shirt.
It says to the salesman, "I can afford this car, but I'm not going to pay more than it's worth."
While you're inspecting the car, ask critical questions. Who were the previous owners? Do they have receipts for the car's maintenance work? Has the car been in an accident? Offentimes, a small used car dealer won't be able to answer all of these questions because they bought the car from an auction, not the previous owner, but it's worth asking. Be sure to pay special attention to any problem areas you identified in your research, and (with the salesman's permission) bring the car to your trusted mechanic for a quick inspection during the test drive.
If the car lives up to your expectations, it's time to negotiate a deal with those fellas. Go into the negotiations with your walk-away price firmly in mind.
That means you must decide that if they won't give you the car for less than a certain dollar amount, then you'll walk away from the deal. Don't be afraid to say no to a subpar deal. Dealers sometimes scramble to meet their sales quotas during the last week of each month, so you can sometimes negotiate a deal more easily then simply because they need to move cars off the lot.
If you're trading in your current car, don't be fooled by the games they'll try to play. I was once told that a dealer couldn't give me more than $1,000 for my 1997 model car because it was too old to sell on their lot. I wasn't falling for that one, so he talked to his manager and somehow found $3,500 to offer me for the car. That's more like it, bud. Know your car's trade-in value and suggested retail value when you go in. The dealer needs to turn a profit, so he won't pay you retail, but don't settle with less than your car is worth. It's more work for you, but you'll always get more money for your car if you sell it yourself.
The most fatal mistake you can make during this process is getting emotionally attached to a car. As soon as you are emotionally attached, you're willing to pay anything for it, so make sure your head is speaking to you as much as your heart. Find something that's right for your needs, that's reliable and that's within your financial reach. And when you've made the rational choice on the deal, look back in several years knowing that you made a good decision.

Don't waste your last few summers
It's April everyone, in case you didn't already know. The trees are getting their color back, the flowers are blooming, the weather is warming up and summer is right around the corner. Use this time wisely to get ready for the anticipated summer.
But what exactly is the best way to spend your summer vacation? As college students, we need to make the most out of our summers because before we know it, we will have full-time jobs and no summer vacation.
For us juniors, it could be our last summer to enjoy without having a job to report to everyday. So before we have to face those real-life situations, make the most of this summer.
It is going to be another hot and humid summer this year, so make sure you have plenty of time at the beach. There is no better way to stay cool during a hot summer day than a day at the beach. It is also a great way to stay relaxed and stress-free. I know it can be hard to get motivated to leave the comfort of your air-conditioned house, but if you are staying cool on a beach, it might make it worth it.
And if you don't live near a beach, take a vacation and make a trip out of it, either to a beach or a city you have never been to. We all have that one place in the country we have never been to and have always wanted to go, so why not take this trip

summer? If you're out of school and work, you have the time, so take advantage of it before you are busy again with school in the fall. Make memories, get out and be active.
Make the time to go to some music festivals or an outdoor concert. Wakarusa is a fun music festival. It is a three-day outdoor event that has music of all genres, so it is fun for everyone. Or if you're the type of person who doesn't like to camp and be away from their bed, then make the time to go to an outdoor concert and take advantage of the warm weather because it will be gone before we know it.
Who could forget to throw a barbecue with some day drinking on a lazy Sunday? This might be the most fun one could do during the summer. This is the best way to enjoy your summer and the weather.
Just remember it is important to get out and enjoy the summer before we are all back to the school grind in the fall.

Reese Witherspoon apologizes for behavior preceding arrest
ASSOCIATED PRESS
ATLANTA — Reese Witherspoon is "deeply embarrassed" about what she said to police officers after she and her husband were arrested during a traffic stop in Atlanta.
The Oscar-winning actress released a statement late Sunday apologizing for her behavior to police that began when her husband, Hollywood agent Jim Toth, was arrested early Friday for driving under the influence of alcohol.
"Do you know my name? Witherspoon is quoted as saying in a state trooper's report. She also said: "You're about to find out who I am" and "You're about to be on national news," according to the report.
"I clearly had one drink too many and I am deeply embarrassed about the things I said," Witherspoon said. "It was definitely a scary situation and I was frightened for my husband, but that is no excuse. I was disrespectful to the officer who was just doing his job. The words I used that night definitely do not reflect who I am. I have nothing but respect for the police and I'm very sorry for my behavior."
Witherspoon said she can't comment further "out of respect" for the pending case, and her publicist, Meredith O'Sullivan Wasson, offered no other details.
The 37-year-old actress was arrested on a municipal charge of disorderly conduct early Friday after a state trooper said she wouldn't stay in the car while Toth was given a field sobriety test. She was released from jail after

film, "Mud." She posed for cameras on the red carpet but did not stop to talk to reporters.
The trooper noticed the car driven by her husband wasn't staying in its lane early Friday morning, so he initiated a traffic stop. He reported that Toth had droopy eyelids, watery, bloodshot eyes, and his breath smelled strongly of alcohol.
Toth told the trooper hed had a drink, which Witherspoon said was consumed at a restaurant two hours before the traffic stop, the trooper writes.
Before the field sobriety test began, Witherspoon got out of the car, was told to get back in and obeyed, the report said. After the "Walk the Line" star got out a second time, the trooper said he warned her that she would be arrested if she left the car again.
As the test continued, "Mrs. Witherspoon began to hang out the window and say that she did not believe that I was a real police officer. I told Mrs. Witherspoon to sit on her butt and be quiet," Trooper First Class J. Pyland writes.4
Toni 42, was then placed under arrest. He was charged with driving under the influence and failure to maintain the lane.
At that point, the report says, Witherspoon got out and asked the trooper what was going on. After being told to return to the car, she "stated that she was a 'US Citizen' and that she was allowed to 'stand on American ground'" the report states.
The trooper then began to arrest Witherspoon. The report says Witherspoon was resistant at first but was calmed down by her husband.
Toth and Witherspoon were then taken to jail.
NATIONAL
News of the arrest broke shortly before Witherspoon arrived on the "Mud" red carpet.
"I can't say anything because I don't know," said director Jeff Nichols. "I literally — the first guy on the press line to say something was the first time I heard about it so I gotta go figure it out."
Matthew McConaughey, who plays the lead role in "Mud" and is represented by Toth, said "I'm not going to comment on that because it's too fresh."

A police vehicle probes the boat where 19-year-old Boston Marathon bombing suspect Dzhokhar Tsarnaev is hiding in Watertown, Mass. The Nielsen company said nearly 42 million people watched the last hour of Friday's manhunt for Tsarnaev.
ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK — So much for scripted police procedurals. The marathon manhunt in Boston was a real-life drama that kept the biggest television networks and their viewers on edge for most of the day and into Friday evening, with a city's safety hanging in the balance.
It had a prime-time conclusion, too. Shortly before 9 p.m. EDT, and three hours after the sound of gunfire indicated the end might be near, Boston police announced that the second suspect in the Boston Marathon bombing had been taken into custody.
"I feel like I've been watching a bad movie that I couldn't turn off"; said one resident, Rita Colella, interviewed on NBC.
ABC, CBS and NBC took the unusual step of casting aside regular programming to cover the story throughout the day, joined
by the cable news networks.
TV was a window to the world for residents of Boston and some surrounding areas, who were asked by authorities to stay in their homes as the search went on.
"It's unbelievable, unprecedented to see a major metropolitan area essentially called to a halt," Chris Jansing said on MSNBC.
The evening action came as attention to the story was beginning to lag. After a full day of coverage, NBC switched to Ellen DeGeneres' talk show. Massachusetts authorities lifted their order that everyone in Boston and some suburbs stay at home.
During the long day of coverage, networks seemed to keep in mind Wednesday's embarrassment, when some news organizations erroneously reported that a suspect in the bombing had been arrested. The scarcity of solid
information did lead to moments of confusion, though. In midmorning, MSNBC was reporting that a second suspect being hunted. CNN flashed on its screen that police were searching for a Honda that the suspect may be driving in Connecticut.
As the day went on, networks found it harder to fill the time. Video of the overnight firefire was played over and over. NBC's Brian Williams had a fascinating interview with a couple who lived overlooking the street where the gunplay took place, describing bullets that came into their home. But it turned long-winded.
Individual networks were able to show strengths during the coverage. ABC's Bianna Goldorryga used her fluency in Russian to conduct interviews with the suspects' father. On CBS, John Miller and Bill Bratton displayed their police connections in a knowledgeable and low-key manner.

THE MORNING BREW Bruins and Red Sox strengthen Boston
Just as sports have deeply affected our lives, the events of this past week have shown how greatly our lives can transform sports.
Days of gut-wrenching events and stories unfolded in front of our eyes, with little we could do but watch. Our emotions wavered with the ebb and flow of the events. But through such tragedy came an incredible wave of support. And it was often carried through the beauty of sound
By Jackson Long
jlong@kansan.com
In the days following the marathon bombings but before the capture of the suspects, the city of Boston came together for a Bruins hockey game. It was a statement that the city would continue forward, courageous and strong in the wake of terror. Singer Rene Rancourt began the National Anthem amongst a crowd of heavy hearts. But what happened next nearly brought me to tears.
As Rancourt sang the first few lines, he could sense the crowd singing along. The volume grew, and he lowered the microphone for all of Boston to sing along. A crew of more than 17,000 at TD Bank Garden sang boldly in unison as Rancourt led the emotional chorus. The scene brings chills.
The sounds don't stop there. Major League ballparks around the country honored the city of Boston with music at their venues. The song "Sweet Caroline" is the popular song from the Red Sox's Fenway Park. Fans across America stood together to sing and support Boston by playing their song.
During Boston's first game back at Fenway after the suspect's capturing, against the Kansas City Royals, the song played again in its home venue. This time, Neil Diamond, the artist of "Sweet Caroline," flew to Boston to sing it himself. The crowd erupted in delight and sang proudly along with him. The sounds of normaly returned to Boston, and the fans sang louder with pride and passion for their resilient city.
Before the game, Red Sox designated hitter David Ortiz gave a speech to the crowd. He praised authorities and the police department for their job during the past week. But what he said next, the sounds that shook Fenway Park, are the truest testament to the passion and resiliency of the city that endured so much the week prior.
"This is our f***ing city," said Ortiz, with the whole crowd and country listening in live.
KU
The crowd absolutely erupted. Perhaps
it was the most acceptable public use of the word in recent memory. It struck a chord with the Boston faithful, and frankly, it did with me as well. I am as firm as it gets against the word's use in public, but for the city, for Boston, for the message that the city and country will always stay strong, I thought it was appropriate.
It was true passion from one of Boston's most famous representatives. And I'm sure he was just the one who had the courage and the platform to say it. He's right; that's the Boston way.
"And nobody gonna dictate our city";
Ortiz said. "Stay strong."

KANSAS CITY, Mo. — The final image that Kansas State fans will have of Angel Rodriguez in a Wildcat uniform will be an air ball at the buzzer in an NCAA tournament game against La Salle that could have prevented a massive unset loss
The Wildcats' starting point guard said Monday that he wants to transfer closer to his mother and two younger brothers, who still live in his native Puerto Rico.
Rodriguez was recruited to Kansas State by former coach Frank Martin, but was convinced to stay when Bruce Weber took over the program. He played through injuries most of last season, helping the Wildcats win a share of a conference championship for the first time in 36 years.
"...At the end of the day, I have to do what I think is best for my mom and my brothers."
Rodriguez did not indicate where he plans to transfer.
Rodriguez started most of his freshman year, and in 33 of the 35 games this past season, when he helped Kansas State finish 27-8 and earn a No.4 seed in the NCAA tournament.
ANGEL RODRIGUEZ Kansas State point guard
be first with me."
He's averaged nearly 10 points and five assists for his career, and will have two seasons of eligibility.
"It is important that everyone understands this was a really difficult decision," he said. "This decision was based entirely on my family and has nothing do with Kansas State, basketball or the coaching staff. It's unfortunate after the year we just had, but I just feel right now this is the best thing for me and my family."
"Whether it is the right choice or not, family has and always will
ity and a redshirt year still remaining.
"Angel really had a great season for us and has emerged as one of the top point guards in the country." Weber said in a
statement. "His personal improvement this past year was obviously a big factor in our run to the Big 12 title."
Rodriguez left Puerto Rico about five years ago to pursue basketball — and a better education — at Miami's Dr. Krop High School. But his mother, Jacqueline Tricoche, had to stay behind to care for his two younger brothers, Luis Rivera and Daniel Rivera.
Angelito, as he's called, fielded several scholarship offers but chose Kansas State in part because of Martin's connection with Miami and Rodriguez's AAU coach, Shakey Rodriguez.
Trioche never saw her son play as a freshman, but she made a trip to Kansas State in January and got to see him star in a win over Texas. Rodriguez smiled in a
hallway under Bramlage Coliseum after that game, recalling how his mother had seen snow for the first time just that morning.
"It was the right decision to come here," Rodriguez said, "and I don't regret it all. Coach Weber and his staff made the transition a lot easier than I ever thought it would be. He made me a better player and to play with more confidence.
"I never thought I would get this close to my teammates," he added.
"The past few days have been difficult for me, just thinking how this decision would impact them. However, at the end of the day, I have do what I think is best for my mom and my brothers."
Kansas State is already losing leading scorer Rodney McGruder and 7-footer Jordan Henriquez to graduation, which means Rodriguez's loss creates another gaping void in the starting lineup.
The Wildcats already have signed a point guard in next year's recruiting class in Jevon Thomas out of St. John's Northwest Military Academy in Wisconsin. They also have a commitment from Nigel Johnson, a point guard from Riverdale Baptist in Upper Marlboro, Md.
"After multiple conversations, Angel feels an obligation to be closer to his family," Weber said. "Just like the loss of our seniors, this will be another opportunity for someone to step up."

Chicago Bulls center Joakim Noah (13) tries to block Brooklyn Nets forward Reggie Evans (30) in the first half of Game 2 of their first-round NBA basketball playoff series played in New York.
Chicago beats Brooklyn to tie first-round series
Uluol Deng bounced back from a poor opener with 15 points and 10 rebounds for the Bulls, who became the first team to win a road game this postseason.
Carlos Boozer had 13 points and 12 rebounds, Joakim Noah gutted his way through a foot injury to make three fourth-quarter baskets, and the Bulls beat the Brooklyn Nets 90-82 on Monday night to even their first-round series at one game apiece.
NEW YORK - Chicago evened its playoff series the only way it knows how: with bruising Bulls defense.
ASSOCIATED PRESS
Noah finished with 11 points and 10 rebounds for the Bulls, who host Game 3 on Thursday.
Chicago held the Nets to two baskets in the third quarter to build a big enough lead to hold off a charge in the fourth.
Brook Lopez scored 21 points for the Nets, who shot 35 percent
After an unrecognizable defensive effort in a 106-89 loss in Game 1, when they allowed the Nets to shoot 16 of 20 in the second quarter, the Bulls got back to the mentality that has helped them overcome a number of injuries, including the season-long absence of Derrick Rose.
Noah, who has battled plantar fasciitis and whose status was in question coming into the series, played 26 minutes, just passing the 20-to-25 that coach Tom Thibodeau said he would be limited to.
Joe Johnson scored 17 points but shot 6 of 18 for the Nets, who couldn't even reach the 87.5 points they averaged against the Bulls in the regular season, let alone the 106 they rang up in the opener.
from the field and were just 4 of 21 from 3-point range. Star point guard Deron Williams was 1 of 9, finishing with eight points.
Two nights after the first major postseason game in Brooklyn since the 1956 World Series, the crowd wasn't as energetic and neither were
the Nets, who didn't give the fans much to cheer about with poor starts in both halves.
The Nets were trying for their first 2-0 lead in a series since the first round in 2004, when they swept the Knicks. But they couldn't get the quick pace that favored them in Game 1, forcing themselves to beat Chicago's defense in the half court, and they couldn't do it.
The Nets missed eight of their first 10 shots, allowing the Bulls to get into the defensive game they need. Brooklyn shot just 33 percent in the first quarter, missed five of its six 3-point attempts, and Chicago led 20-17.
Brooklyn was 2 of 19 (10.5 percent) in the quarter, missing all three 3-point attempts. Noah's low-scoring backup, Nazr Mohammed, had as many baskets in the period as the Nets.
C. J. Watson scored the final five points of the half, including a 3 at the buzzer that trimmed Chicago's lead to 47-46.

ASSOCIATED PRESS
KANSAS CITY, Kan. — Brad Keselowski arrived at Kansas Speedway with the specter of NASCAR sanctions hanging over Penske Racing, and the first few laps of Sunday's race weren't going a whole lot better.
He sustained some damage when he got bumped early on,
and then lost a lap when he failed to get out of the pits quickly enough. And by the time the final laps were ticking away, the sheet metal on the rear of the car had finally
Penske Racing was dealt severe sanctions by NASCAR after inspectors found unapproved parts under the cars of Keselowski and teammate Joey Logano two weeks ago at Texas. Among the punishments were six-race suspensions for seven members of the two teams, probation through the end of the year, $100,000 fines for each crew chief and 25-noir
"It's been a long week, but you know what? We're not giving up."

come loose, flapping like tinfoil in a 200 mph breeze.
"Usually you're not happy unless you win," Keselowski admitted, "but you know, a day where you can fight through adversity like we did and get a solid finish, that's kind of is a win, yes."
BRAD KESELOWSKI NASCAR driver
After the back bumper sheared off, he came in for a late pit stop that allowed the crew of his No. 2 Ford to patch things up. Keselowski charged back onto the track, and then through the field, roaring to a sixth-place finish that made him feel as if he'd won the race.
Nor should they be. The defending Sprint Cup champions are sitting third in points, trailing only Jimmie Johnson and Kasey Kahne as the series shifts to Richmond next weekend.
"It's been a long week," Keselowski said, "but you know what? We're not giving up."
Especially given everything the Penske team has gone through.
penalties for each of the drivers.
The team has appealed the sanctions, arguing that they were operating in a "gray area" with regard to modified rear-end housings.
and the hearing is expected to take place this week.
"I certainly don't think it's cheating," Roger Penske told The Associated Press from the IndyCar race in Long Beach. "We all work in the gray areas. We're trying to be as competitive as we can, we've got very creative minds and it takes a lot of creative minds to be competitive."
It will be up to a three-member panel to decide whether creative was also illegal.
In the meantime, Penske Racing arrived at Kansas Speedway with crew chief Paul Wolfe and the rest of the No. 2 team intact, along with Logano's No. 22 team and the No. 12 of Sam Hornish Jr.
For most of the afternoon, it was turning out to be forgettable.
Logano bailed out on the apron when he saw Kyle Busch skidding down the banking of the corner midway through the race, but he had nowhere to go. The two cars wound up in a bone-jarring, nose-to-nose collision that sent debris scattering over the track's recently
repaved asphalt.
Keselowski's car wasn't in much better shape. The minor damage to the rear quarter panel from early in the race kept peeling away bit by bit.
Hornish got into trouble with 84 laps to go when Marcos Ambrose got sideways right in front of him. The two collided, and Casey Mears joined in a wreck that also included Danica Patrick, leaving two of the three Penske entries looking like aluminum cans that had been stepped on.
"I could feel something was wrong with it, but I couldn't see it." Keselowski said afterward. "So you don't know what magnitude it is. Obviously it must have been pretty severe."
It was severe enough that his crew was concerned.
"On that last restart, he kept asking the spotter before we started, he said, 'Where's the wind?' The wind feels different," said longtime Penske executive Walt Czarnecki. "At one point he said, 'It's like I've got a parachute hanging out the back of the car.'
When it eventually popped off,it brought out a caution that allowed Matt Kenseth to seize control,and ultimately hold off Kahne for his second straight win at Kansas.
But the yellow flag also allowed the No. 2 team to finally bend their car back into shape, and that was enough for Keselowski to start driving to the front as the end neared.
"Wasn't that great?" Penske said. "With all the trouble they had, and the accident on the first lap, and Joey and Sam being in the wrong place at the wrong time, I think it was an amazing finish, and shows just how tough the team is. We've got to move on here and keep on racing."

COMMENTARY Jayhawks steady despite schedule
kansan.com
or Kansas, it's another week. another cancellation.
By Trevor Graff
tgraff@kansan.com
The Jayhawks have rescheduled or canceled 10 games this season due to inclement weather.
With impromptu snow tours through Arkansas and Texas and several games played against NAIA Missouri Valley College, Saint Mary and soon Baker University, the Kansas baseball schedule has taken on the character of a puzzle, the missing pieces falling in place at the last minute.
Somehow, through the entire process of shuffling the schedule, the Jayhawks have maintained a rhythm and kept the train on the tracks. Looking through the standings in Big 12 conference play, it's Oklahoma in first with an 8-4 record, and the Jayhawks second at 9-6.
The Jayhawks have won three conference series for the first time since 2011 and have the opportunity to win three conference series in a row for the first time since then when they take on West Virginia this weekend.
This season's success may seem as unlikely to those surrounding Big 12 baseball as the never-ending Kansas winter weather. But the jayhawks have made their statement.
By beating TCU two games to one, saving a final game victory in the Oklahoma series and beating Oklahoma State and perennial power Texas, the Jayhawks have solidified their spot in the rankings.
They're contenders with a veteran middle infield that continues to play solid defensively, an outfield that has improved greatly since last season and a bullpen that rivals that of any bullpen in the Midwest.
"You start looking at the standings, and you start getting yourself setup to fail big time," coach Ritch Price said. "Our players are aware of the fact that if they have won Sunday, they'd be in first place today. Obviously, that would've been a great accomplishment with three series left, but the whole thing is about winning series, and we have to find a way next weekend to go to West Virginia and win."
Change goes unnoticed in the McCarthy Family Clubhouse. Good luck getting anyone to admit to giddiness or a sense of accomplishment to this point. For Kansas, it's time to grind.
With three Big 12 Conference series remaining the Jayhawks will play West Virginia, Baylor and Kansas State.
The Mountaineers are sitting in sixth with a 6-6 Big 12 record. The Bears remain in the thick of it with an 8-6 record and pose the most serious threat for Kansas looking forward. The Wildcats are on Kansas heels with their 7-5 Big 12 record.
For Kansas, the setting is prime for a strong finish in the conference. Ask Price, and he'll tell you it all starts on the mound where the Jayhawks are still searching for a Sunday starter.
With a few question marks remaining for the Kansas staff, the Jayhawks have nothing left to do but grind.
In a season as weird as the Kansas weather cycle, the Jayhawks are a solid threat for the top teams in the conference.

"Drove it in trouble, didn't get it out of trouble, 3-putting, just things we didn't do to play well."
"We had to count two eights on the last holes. There are just nine to 10 shots out there that you just can't afford to give away."

The teams played Prairie Dunes through a rain delay Monday morning, after which Kansas seemed to fall apart. Play was suspended around 11 a.m. to rain, and when play resumed, the Jayhawks' significance in the tournament dwindled. Finishing has been trouble for the Jayhawks for the entirety of the season, and Bermel said the weather was no excuse for the Jayhawks this time.
Senior Chris Gilbert was one of the few to have a very consistent first round with 69, which made him the only player in red numbers for the first round.

"There are other teams out there, so it wasn't like we were the only ones playing in it," said Bermel.
The Jayhawks didn't finish in weather that was almost perfect.
From noon to 6 p.m., the weather was ideal. However, the day would finish in the worst conditions.
"The weather was a little breezy, then we got the rain," Bermel said. "Then, for probably five hours, we had perfect conditions."
"I was joking late in the second round that this was the quiestest this place has ever been." Gilbert said. "Then a couple holes later, the wind picked up to about 40 miles per hour, and the temperature dropped 20 degrees."
Kansas will have nowhere to go but up when it resumes second round play today at 11 a.m. The third round of the Big 12 Championship is schedule to tee-off at 1 p.m., but with slight snow flurries predicted from 6 a.m. to 2

Gov. Brownback visits campus to discuss higher education
I
REID EGGLESTON
reggleston@kansan.com
Governor Brownback visited the University yesterday as part of his tour around Kansas universities and colleges to rally support for his plan to stabilize state funding for higher education.
The Kansas House and Senate have both proposed across-the-board cuts to state universities, a move Brownback thinks will threaten plans for economic development.
"We want to do higher education better," Brownback said. "We can have a program that can lower taxes and still fund these programs." We've got a tax program to move forward with higher education funding."

Without these initiatives, Brownback and Chancellor Bernadette Gray-Little fear that the first thing to go will be teacher salaries. Teacher salaries are considered the life-blood of the University's Bold Aspirations plan, which hopes to propel KU into the ranks of top-tier public international research institutions.
"What we can expect to see with these cuts specifically is a loss of teacher positions," Gray-Little said. "If we are forced to put this cap on salaries, we can expect to remove funding from this area to 70 percent of what it currently is."
Gray-Little encourages students to look beyond the 2-4 percent cut that looms. Considering that money will need to be drawn from other resources, she pegs the total constriction on the University at about 10 percent of what
it currently spends.
She also mentioned that further spending cuts to students would be met with reciprocal tuition increases to keep programs at their current standards. This strategy has been employed in recent years, and she warns that the University will soon reach a critical point where the value of a KU education won't appear worthy of the price tag for Kansas residents
While Kansas representatives and senators insist they are simply trimming higher education's fat, Brownback advises that this mentality is dangerous
The legislature we have is excellent, but there are a lot of new people," he said. "They've begun to ask why doesn't KU fund itself, but it's the relationship between the institution and the state that really creates the progress we see."
Brownback asserts that the popular proposal to expand private contributions to state universities will not prop up Kansas' colleges alone. With a number of smaller schools forced to take an even steeper blow to their pockets, he looks at some of the University's newest initiatives as examples of where strategic school spending works.
"Private funding should not be seen as replacement of state funding," he said. "KU's Bold Aspirations plan looks at state funding as something that will prime the pump, spurring on private funding."
Critics in the House are quick to point out that without sales tax cuts Brownback supported last year, the state's universities would not be in this situation. Still, Brownback is clear in his position that he views Kansas universities and colleges as "a valuable recruitment tool to keep the economy robust."

EDUCATION
Student-led PAC seeks to reform education, teacher quality
REID EGGLESTON
reggleston@kansan.com
Bursting onto the political scene over the last few months, the student-led group 6 PAC, a political action committee, is hoping to make a Kansas-sized dent in state education policy.
The group, formed by Forrest Richardson, a sophomore from Savannah, Mo., aims to address critical concerns in tenure, teacher training and teacher pay policy. They also support initiatives that would increase the number of vocational schools across the state, reduce class sizes in public schools and establish a national standardized testing system to replace current state standardized tests.
And these are exactly the ways the group encourages students to get involved. The 6 PAC relies on grassroots mobilization to reach students. By encouraging students to sign various petitions and elect candidates that are sympathetic to their cause, they keep their hands off financial entanglementes that have come to burden a number of other PACs.
"We're able to make a difference that will affect us from here on out, and yet it doesn't take a huge amount of involvement to tell a representative what you want." Richardson said. "It's only a 30-minute drive to Topeka and it's even easier to sign a petition."
"KU students are able to provide strength in numbers," Richardson said. "We're at a critical time for students on campus with these looming budget cuts. Sometimes it feels like the student voice is marginalized in Topeka and Washington. It's easy for legislators not to listen to what we have to say. But who knows more about the education system than the students themselves?"
Richardson and 6 PAC hope, in time, to expand the conversation about education reform from the state level to the national level. With 24 6 PAC chapters starting at
kids fall through the cracks. When we don't have these things, kids may never fully recover from not getting the full experience out of their education."
other universities across the United States by next August, their vision is to put a comprehensive education reform bill in front of Congress that includes all their choice initiatives.
"When I was in high school, I saw kids fall behind academically and the teachers weren't really helping." Richardson said. "Of course, I also had some excellent teachers, so the goal here is to promote what makes teachers great and change what lets
For Richardson, the grand plan comes as the culmination of public school ills that have inspired him to bring about change in today's K-12 system.
Despite the anecdotes, some remain unconceived. Rick Ginsberg, school of education dean, likes the idea of students getting involved in the education process, but he feels

"I think we're doing things well in Kansas," Ginsberg said. "A lot of things are impossible without significant increases in funding, and that's an issue we need to face."
Ginsberg also feels the disparity between rich and poor schools that plagues Kansas education is deeply entrenched in socio-economic issues that are sometimes beyond the control of education policy. He points to the golden model established in Finland as an education system Kansas and the United States ought to follow.
"They don't rely on standardized testing at all. What they do is take into account the individual needs
of each student," Ginsberg said. "Our market-driven approaches to education are wrong."
But this is a key point of contention in the education debate. Whereas groups like 6 PAC see the merit in a national standardized test as a means for assessing how well one school is accomplishing its goals, others, like Ginsberg, point out a number of cheating scandals that demonstrate testing is moving in the wrong direction.
Chris Wiles, associate director of the University Honors Program, acknowledges the need for public education reform. But he's also quick to draw attention to the Kansas legislature's free-market approach to education that seems to stick around from election to election.
"Kansas is a very conservative group. The governor cherishes spending on education more than the legislature does, but some of these initiatives will be very difficult to achieve, like tenure reform." Wiles said. "Because of this, we're going to have to look at free-market reforms to get some of these things we want."
The one thing all groups agree on is that there is no silver bullet when it comes to education reform. That's why 6 PAC hopes to extend its multifaceted approach to as many students as possible. Through upcoming book drives, recent Twitter conversations with
One of those flaws, well-known to students and education experts alike, is No Child Left Behind. Thoman and Richardson lead 6 PAC in the fight to reform this program. Their ultimate goal is to boost the representation on Congress' NCLB committee of teachers. Thoman said that the reason these types of legislation fail is because those who are directly infulenced by it are not involved in the decision-making process.
the National Teacher Quality Association of America and talks with candidates in Topeka supportive of their concerns, 6 PAC plans to broaden its voice to bring to light the "inherent flaws in our current education system," according to Shayne Thoman, director of 6 PAC's University operations.
Besides specific policy demanus, the group hopes that their actions inspire students to understand they ultimately hold the fate of their education, something that Ginsberg can identify with.
"We need more empowerment of teachers and students to take charge of their education, and that's not something you can really pump more money into," Ginsberg said.
"That will require a change in the way the recipients view the value of their own education."

Students can weigh in on parking changes
KRISTA JOY MONTGOMERY
kmontgomery@kansan.com
For students who commute to campus, a number of changes in parking regulations will begin during the 2013-2014 academic year.
The cost of Park and Ride permits will be raised from $100 per year to $180. According to Margreta de Vries, Parking Commission secretary, Park and Ride is reimbursed only 8 percent of its annual $700,000 route cost by the revenue it creates, and is raising permit prices in an attempt to defray more of that cost. All other parking permits will see a price increase of 2 percent, on average approximately $4.80 per permit.
As the parking budget is user-supported, it uses its revenue from permit sales to fund a majority of the parking budget. The garage toll will also increase its first hour fee from $1.50 to $1.75 to cover the new payment gateway system transaction fees.
parking tickets on campus not payed within 10 business days, a $10 late fee will be implemented. A minimum cost parking permit will now be required for all ADA permit holders. Director of KU Parking and Transit, Donna Hultine, explained that in a system where color zone stalls generate revenue and accessible stalls do not, it is difficult to replace a color zone stall with an accessible parking space, even when there is a clear need of one.
Lot 36 near Snow Hall and Lot 50 near Pearson Scholarship Hall will change the permit color of 18 of their spaces, and for
"If all stalls generate revenue, it will be easier to be responsive to the actual need." Hultine said.
Edited by Alyssa Scott
The Parking Commission will hold an open forum today at 3 p.m. in the Relays room at the Burge Union. Individuals will be able to discuss parking changes and provide feedback for the commission. Comments can also be sent to de Vries at mdevries@ku.edu, or to kupark@ku.edu. More detailed information on the changes can also be found on the KU Parking and Transit website.

Deschanel incorrectly identified as suspect
NEW YORK — A TV captioning service has apologized for misidentifying "New Girl" star Zooey Deschanel as one of the Boston Marathon bombing suspects on a Texas news broadcast.

The erroneous onscreen text
Deschanel learned of the TV captioning blunder over the weekend and tweeted: "Whoa! Epic closed captioning FAIL!"
The suspect was 19-year-old college student Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, who later was arrested and hospitalized.

More than 1,000 students have signed the bail in two days. ZBT hopes to raise about $1,500 to beat their record from last year.

Man recounts finding suspect; says he's lucky to be alive
BOSTON—The Massachusetts man who found the surviving Boston Marathon bombing suspect hiding in his boat was glad to be able to help and feels lucky to be alive, he said Tuesday.
ASSOCIATED PRESS
"If I help these people that lost people, if I can help them in their mind, then everything is good with me here," David Henneberry, of Watertown, said in an interview aired Tuesday by WCVB-TV in Boston.
Henneberry said he did not see any blood but noticed that two bumper pads he had placed between his boat, the Slip Away II, and its shrink wrap cover had fallen to the ground. He thought it might have been the wind.
Henneberry said he went outside to get some air and check his boat Friday evening after police lifted a shelter-in-place order following an intense daylong manhunt for 19-year-old Dzhokhar Tsaarnev.
When he first went to check, he found a loose strap and went back in his house. But he decided to take another look from a ladder.
"I got three steps up the ladder and rolled the shrink wrap. I didn't expect to see anything, but I saw blood on the floor of the boat. A good amount of blood" he told WCVB. He said he saw more blood and noticed a motionless body.
"He was just lying there by the engine block and the floor. I couldn't see his face. I'm glad I didn't see his face." Henneryre said. The man still didn't move.
After an exchange of gunfire with police, Tsarnaev was arrested.
Henneberry said that he doesn't remember going down the ladder to call 911, but that "I didn't waste any time." He said police took him and his wife to a neighbor's home.
"I am lucky I am alive," Henneberry said. "These other people were killed. Sometimes, I just sit and say, 'Wow.'
He said he is aware of talk on social media about efforts to buy him a new boat — it was damaged during the police activity — but that he would rather people make donations to the One Fund organization, formed to help Boston bombing victims.

Judge blocks auction of 'In Cold Blood' files
ASSOCIATED PRESS
ASSOCIATED PRESS
TOPEKA — A judge ruled Tuesday that investigation materials from the 1959 "In Cold Blood" murders kept by a Kansas Bureau of Investigation agent at home may not be auctioned off or publicly disclosed until he's had a chance to review them.
Shawnee County District Judge Larry Hendricks said the state could face "irreparable harm" if the materials found in Harold Nye's home became public.
SAFE ON THE ROAD
The materials include Nye's personal journals, which mix notes from his KBI work with notes about personal matters, according to lawyers. The items also include copies of records and other materials about the investigation that inspired the Truman Capote classic. Crime scene photos in his possession were returned to the state last year by his son.
settled, but he left open the possibility that he could rescind it after reviewing the documents himself to determine how much private or previously undisclosed material they contain.
Ronald Nye, of Oklahoma City, kept the other materials after his father's 2003 death and gave them to Seattle memorabilia dealer Gary McAvoy to buy off. But the Kansas attorney general's office contends the materials belong to the state, and it sued last year to get them back. Another hearing in the case is scheduled for November, to determine when it will go to trial.
"Folks, I think I need to see them," he said from the bench. "I need to look at them."
Hendricks said his order will remain in place until the case is
McAvey and Ronald Nye now say they don't plan to auction off the materials, and that instead they plan to write their own book about the killing of Herb and Bonnie Clutter and two of their children at their remote farmhouse in Holcomb. Hendricks' order bars them from even speaking about the files' contents publicly.
Kyle Smith, deputy director of the Kansas Bureau of Investigation, discusses its plans for obtaining a new, $55 million lab as he shows off an existing KBI lab, in Topeka. Kan, Kyle is surrounded by equipment used by the KBI to analyze samples of biological material.
The judge said the materials fall under the Kansas Open Records Act, which allows law enforcement agencies to close their investigation records but limits the circumstances.
Tai Vokins, an Olathe attorney representing McAvoy and Ronald Nye, said they'll gather the materials in dispute and turn them over to Hendricks, so that he can review them, in hopes of getting him to modify or rescind his order.
"I'm disappointed, but at the same time, I'm glad to get the guidance from the court," Vokins said after the hearing.
The attorney general's office sued McAvoy and his business; Ronald Nye and his sister, and
Harold Nye's widow, Joyce, Vokins said Joyce Nye died recently.
Schmidt has argued that the materials should be returned to the state so that the KBI can preserve the integrity of its records and out of respect for the Clutter family.
PAGE 3
After the hearing, KBI Director Kirk Thompson said, "Really, the only thing I can say is that we're pleased with the ruling."
Hendricks said the parties have raised numerous issues, such as whether Harold Nye acted improperly by keeping the materials at home and whether blocking their use violates Ronald Nye's and McAvoy's free speech rights. But he said the parties need to present more evidence on those questions.
In the meantime, the judge said if he allowed disclosure of the materials without seeing them first, "they're out in the public" even if he later ruled the items should be returned to the state.
Two parolees, Richard Hickock and Perry Smith, were eventually convicted of killing the Clutters and were executed in 1965. Four years later, Harold Nye began a two-year stint as the KBIs director.
The hunt for the family's killers mesmerized the nation and drew journalists from throughout the U.S. to the small western Kansas town of Holcomb.
Hickock and Smith fled to
Florida after the Kansas murders, and authorities in December exhumed their remains to test them for DNA in the hopes that it might help lead to a break in the unsolved killing of a Sarasota, Fla., family a few weeks after the Clutters' deaths.
"In Cold Blood," which takes the reader through the killings, the Hickock and Smith's trial, and their execution is celebrated because it reads like a novel. However, scholars have long debated its accuracy.
Richard Adler, a forensic psychiatrist from Seattle, said the
documents kept by Harold Nye are significant because Capote's account of the Clutter case "may be inaccurate" in "pivotal ways." Alder attended Tuesday's hearing and said he's reviewed some of the materials in question.
"The public would have great benefit in having access to them," Adler said after the hearing. "This is a very celebrated case, and the general public's understanding of the case stems from Truman Capote's account."

If those interested in attending the conference have not previously registered, registration will be provided at the door. The registration fee is $50 for non students and non faculty.
The Energy Club was created in 2010 by two engineering students. The goal of the club is to promote collaboration to work toward sustainability.
"Their vision is still constant
and to promote dialogue between the faculty, community and students," Fowler said. "We take issues and bring in experts on all sides of it."
The club is open to all and encourages students from all interests to join.

I love when people talk about how they "only have a few summers left" reminding me that I've worked 50 hour weeks in the summer since I was 15. Enjoy the beach.
If you think leggings are pants, wear them. If you don't, then don't. People seriously get too worked up over the fashion choices of others.

To the kid with the Atari jacket, keep up the good work.
Talking about problems doesn't solve them
I usually just write about whatever's on my mind – that's how I end up with "political columns" about my parents moving, my girlfriend being awesome and Batman. But last week has been too much. I've started this column 10 times and every single one feels wrong because I have no idea what I'm supposed to feel. Let me walk you through it.
On Friday, I am in the hospital. I have not been in a hospital in exactly three years, when my immune system completely failed me and I couldn't function without a constant stream of powerful antibiotics. I had been doing much better since I started doing weekly IV treatments to maintain my blood count, but that's in the past now. This year, I've just been doing whatever the insurance company orders me to do, and today, they're sending me to a hospital.
I've held onto my hospital band from that stay three years ago; the word "stronger" is etched into it with a pen I found on my bedside table because I told
myself I'd never be back. I carry it with me on hard days, but I don't need it today because the lady at the front desk is giving me a new one. I fill out paperwork and answer a questionnaire about my illness so the doctor knows I'm not trying to steal drugs, and eventually start my treatment. I lie alone in my hospital bed for five hours and remember how I used to do this from home in only 90 minutes with my family around me.
I wake up at 8 a.m. the next morning and go to the Big Event. I love volunteering, but I'm beginning to feel the pain spread through my body as I carry tables up and down the stairs. I look at my arms and hands and notice that they're covered in brushes.
On Monday, I walk into my therapist's office and schedule an appointment. I haven't been all semester. I have dinner and watch footage from the Boston Marathon explosion. The news-caster announces the death of an 8-year-old boy. I lower my head to the table and lay there for a

couple minutes until I regain my composure. I notice a couple others watching the news report, but most are just eating and laughing about something that happened over the weekend.
On Wednesday, a fertilizer plant in Texas explodes while I'm trying to write my column. My arms are still bruised and tingling from my treatment. I delete my column and go to bed. Apparently, the gun bill didn't pass either.
I've watched the video of the bombs in Boston go off a few times, and I've noticed something pretty remarkable. There are three types of people shown: first are the people who were hit by the explosion; second are
the people who turned around and ran back to help the victims; third are the people who made it out of the explosion, and did what any sensible person would do – run past the finish line and thank God for sparing them. This week, I think we all felt like we were hit. We started out as regular Americans with our own sets of problems, but they were quickly buried under the weight of an entire nation's pain. And I wanted so bad to be one of those superior people who ran back to help everyone else, but I've always just been the guy who convinces himself that he already crossed the finish line and won the race
he reminded me and woke the face.
I went back to my therapist because I was mad that the world didn't stop for me while I was still trying to recover.
I realized that I haven't healed yet; I've just been telling myself I'm done with depression because it isn't kicking me in the teeth anymore. Out of sight, out of mind. Yeah, I always write about what's on my mind, but then I pretend like it's magically solved
because I took time to acknowledge it. But I wrote about health care back in September and now they've got me back in a hospital bed. I wrote about gun control back in January, but we can't pass a bill because a kid hasn't been shot in his spelling class this week. These problems aren't just solved by time, and we have to stay committed to them long after the media coverage fades away. I'm going to try and be the kind of American who doesn't just care about what's happening right this second, but the kind who runs back to help the others who never caught up from Katrina, the Iraq War, the Virginia Tech shooting and the countless other tragedies that happen every single day.

CULTURE
Public, media should focus on heroes not criminals
The Boston Marathon bombings reawakened America's fear of terror
1 bombings reawakened America's fear of terrorism and demonstrated the abominable hate that still exists in the world. Pressure cookers, black powder, nails and ball bearings, when used individually, act as necessary tools to aid in a variety of tasks, but after this week, these tools become grim symbols.
Symbols of vile hate, symbols of innocent lives lost, symbols that change is inevitable and necessary. I'm not concerned with what political party you most identify with – or about the conspiracy theories – because this isn't about politics. This is about loss and heroism, the victims and the people that ran towards the bomb, not knowing if there was another bomb, to aid the injured.
By Bryenn Bierwirth
bbierwirth@kansan.com
But people don't focus on the heroes or the victims. Instead, people focus on the perpetrator(s) and make abhorrent comments about humanity. "I have lost all respect for humanity, disgusting people we are," and "This is human nature and hatred is part of the world, sad truth."
The latter comment really pissed me off. It's an obtrusive comment that mocks the victims of these tragedies by saying hate is genetically inherited and that all humans have this "hate gene" encoded in our DNA. That
comment tells us to get over it, because it's natural human behavior. I don't believe this to be true.
The bigger picture here is simple: hate manifests hate.
If you find yourself blaming humanity for the tragedy that happened this week then know this, hate is hate, no matter the extreme.
Hate isn't limited to terrorism attacks or physical violence, hate is perpetuated by these things, but hate can be verbally expressed, too. To me, you're not any better of a person if you express your hate verbally than you would physically.
Now, before people berate me with comments of hate – ironic – because I label people who express disgust in humanity verbally and parallel them to people who express disgust physically, I hear your argument.
But our definition of hate is too narrow, only designed for extremist - people who epitomize hate - and I want to know
why? Why is it not hate until someone perfects the hate? I want to hate the person responsible for this heinous tragedy, but what does that solve? Nothing. What do you think would have happened if Martin Luther King Jr. used the same hate he received to project his message to the world? Do you think we would be here, with our first black president?
Let us refocus our attention on what actually matters: the heroes and victims, not the villains. Humanity isn't represented by al-Qaida and similar groups, or by Hitler and similar individuals. Humanity is represented by individuals that are greatly affected by tragedy and who empathize with the victims' families; these are the kind of individuals that run toward the bomb to rescue the injured. This is the spirit of humanity and it's not a negative one.
I think it's time we stop hating and learn to coexist.
Martin Luther King Jr. said, "We have learned to fly the air like birds and swim the sea like fish, but we have not yet learned the simple art of living together as brothers and sisters."

HUMOR
CAMPUS CHIRPS BACK
Writing disappearing from communication
It's bad enough that I spent countless hours of my life learning how to write curvise when I could have been outside in the late October sunlight enjoying an afternoon round of kickball with my friends, but who are we kidding? It's one thing to look back and think. "Man, that really was a waste of time!" But now we're about to reach the point of yet another cultural divide, and that's writing altogether.
Bear with me here and just think about it. If cursive, the most popular means of communication not even a hundred years ago, has all but died out as far as our generation is concerned, how long before we quit writing anything down at all? I don't take a notebook to class; I take my iPad or laptop. I don't hand write letters to my Mammie in Miami; I shoot that bag of bones an email. The last thing I signed was my bar tab and that's a given. We've reached the point where writing things down just seems kind of ,pointless.
Don't stop me now, I'm just getting started.
I'll take the environmental approach for a moment, if you will. Think of all the trees we will save when we start teaching kindergarteners how to use a tablet instead of a pen and paper? You can paint by numbers on your smartphone, so why worry about buying canvas to create art? Cutting down trees destroys the rainforest, which puts not only Toucan Sam out of a home but also Smokey Bear out of a job. If companies like Enron had made the move to company-wide emails and cloud-based storage solutions they would've never gone bankrupt in the first place. Think about it.
Not enough for you? Here, try these boots on for size:
Paper cuts. Remember the
last time you had one of those? Yeah, it hurt, didn't it? No one likes paper cuts, because they're awful. There's blood everywhere and then you have to get up from your desk and awkwardly walk up to the professor and ask if they know where you can get a Band-Aid, which of course he or she has no idea, which forces you to walk aimlessly up and down the halls before you find some secretary somewhere who happens to have one in her purse because her five year old son is a hemophiliac. Are you a hemophiliaac? No, you're just a dummy who had to take notes on paper.
UDK
Also, think about lead poisoning. I know we've only recently moved on to graphite-based pencils but how long before the FDA or the Surgeon General comes forth and lets us all in on the secret that graphite causes cancer? Everyone thought cigarettes were good for you in the 1950s and now look at them. Those of us who didn't get the memo are ruining my walk down Jayhawk Boulevard, blowing smoke deliberately in my face and humiliating me for being a non-smoker. I just want to fit in!
Don't fight the future here, guys. Let's all be forward thinking young adults and put our collective efforts behind a cause that really matters. Let's make 2014 the year that we quit writing. Right? Who's with me?

But Vardiman said you have to "establish if it's really necessary" to consume the extra calories in a sports drink versus calorie-free water. There are several factors to consider, including composition, duration, intensity and temperature.
Two miles, 100 sit-ups and 10 minutes of stretching later, I reached for my plastic bottle filled to the brim with red liquid. Feeling sweaty yet accomplished after a solid workout, I sipped my fruit punch sports drink and then threw it in the trash can on my way out of the gym.
After still waking up sore and depleted the next morning, I blamed my lack of colored fluid consumption. That's when I began to wonder whether sports drinks are actually useful.
Phillip Vardiman, assistant professor for athletic training education, answered my question in a not-so-obvious way: "It depends."
Sports drinks have necessary carbohydrates and electrolytes that restore lost elements and lead the recovery process after a workout. An average Gatorade sports drink has 80 calories per 12 fluid ounces, as well as a generous portion of sodium and sugars. The sodium in sports drinks keeps us thirsty, which makes us want to drink more of it, while the sugar keeps our energy high.
Sports drinks most beneficial during strenuous workouts

Experts encourage staying hydrated regardless of source
Aaron Carbuhn, sports nutritionist for the University, said the first factor is to determine whether your workout as a whole was long enough, intense enough and pressed you to your limits.
"If you weigh yourself after your workout and have lost two or three pounds, that's two or three pounds of water weight, not body weight, that you need to get back in your

system," Carbuhn said. He noted that if a sports drink will help you drink enough liquid to keep yourself hydrated, then you should indulge in it.
"You can either increase or decrease the amount of powder product you put in," he said. "You could potentially make the drink more sugary and have more calories with the powder or put in half the recommended powder to get half the calories."
Vardian said that with powdered sports drinks, you have the ability to control the amount of calories.
DURATION
Vardiman and Carbunb both said if your workout is less than an hour long, sports drinks will most likely not benefit you any more than water because you probably haven't lost enough electrolytes or carbohydrates to affect your body.
"A lot of your energy is stored in your nutrition that you got prior to your workout." Carbuhn said. "You'll be able to get through everything if it's a shorter time period."
Vardiman said most people don't need the carbohydrates from a sports drink unless their workout involves something with duration, like marathon training or weight lifting.
If your workout is over a period of two or three hours, taking a sip of a sports drink every so often can help fuel your body.
"Sports drinks are easy and useful because you can drink some of the needed carbohydrates and sugars," Carbhuhn said, "Get a couple swigs in every so often and space it out over the workout."
"You need to have a sufficient amount of energy or your body will start to run out of gas," he said.
INTENSITY
through the motions?
With a routine such as weight lifting, Carbuh said it's helpful to get a few sips of a caloric drink to keep your body hydrated and replenished during the workout. With an exercise such as a three-mile jog, it's not as important because your body probably isn't being stretched to its limits.
Depending on the difficulty of your workout, Vardiman said it's crucial to follow up exercise with protein in something like chocolate milk. It's important to hydrate after and have fluid in your system all the time.
"It prevents you from losing a lot of muscle tissue," he said. "Your body needs to recover in some way if you want to continue to build and be effective with your workouts."
Are you actually putting in a lot of hard work or are you just going
TEMPERATURE
If it's extremely hot or humid, a sports drink could be useful because you're likely to lose more electrolytes and carbohydrates through excessive sweating.
Carburn said environmental factors are one of the most important elements to be aware of during a workout.
Overall, athlete or amateur, the goal is to drink throughout your workout if possible and to rehydrate after. Vardiman and Carbuh both said pre-hydration isn't necessary, and it may make you feel too full.
Although a sports drink may not replenish us in the ways we think, the significance is to prevent our body from drying out. Vardiman said it's more about encouraging people to drink fluids.
"Some people don't like water because it doesn't have any flavor," he said. "Add a bit of flavor and some coloring and that gets people to drink more."

Brazilian designers debut innovative swimwear
ASSOCIATED PRESS
The face of the model is clearly visible. Her hair is styled in a short, neat fashion, and her neckline is a high-cap sweater with decorative stitching around the shoulders. She wears large hoop earrings and has a confident pose with her hands on her hips. The background is plain white.
RIO DE JANEIRO — Just how complicated can the Brazilian bikini, among the skimpiest iterations of the simple spandex triangle and string design, possibly get?
A model kews a creation from the Triya summer collection during Fashion Rio in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, Friday, Fashion Rio also debuted such creative pieces as a metal bikini, a see-through mesh bikini, and spotted bandage tops.
Judging from the innovative, inventive and some downright strange beachwear options that hit the runways during Fashion Rio, the seaside metropolis' five-day long fashion showcase, the sky's the limit. The spring-summer 2013-14 edition, featuring collections by about two dozen designers, wrapped up late Friday night.
At Blue Man, there were bikinis in see-through mesh, made legal in this country where skinny dipping is permitted only on a handful of beaches by strategically placed lozenges of fabric in Technicolor tropical prints. And in case hitting the beach in what essentially amounted to psychedelic censor bars doesn't appeal, the label had many a fuller-coverage offering on display, including a few all-enveloping, long-sleeve unitards whose sexiest features were zippers running all the way up the models' prominent spinal columns.

tropical gardens.
For those looking for more of a happy medium, there were a host of bikinis — with string or bandeau tops, low- or high-rise bottoms — in colonial watercolor and tropical hothouse prints.
Lenny Niemeyer opened her show with a long-sleeve one-piece that looked like the lovechild of a swimsuit and a sweatshirt. Made from a thick material that held its sculptural shape, the suit had puffy sleeves that appeared as if they'd been grafted from a schlumpy sweatshirt onto a racy leotard. Not necessarily the most weather-appropriate design for the tropics, but certainly an eye-grabber.
Among the few shows held outside the special tents set up at a marina on the city's picture postcard Guanabara Bay, the Blue Man display took place at the former residence of the Portuguese ambassador, a sumptuous colonial mansion with sprawling
Other unmissable looks from Neimeyer, whose bold lines and use of subtle earthy hues have catapulted her to international fame, included turtleneck one-pieces kitted out with flippy little skirts and skimpy bikinis that looked like they'd been made out of scuba suits.
A monkey in a nearby tree took in the show with a look of nonplussed nonchalance, as if to say he'd seen better. The homo sapien guests, however, were duly impressed, applauding and hooting with gusto.
Triya delivered a rigid metal bandeau top that look like it had been made from a cast of the model's chest. But it was the kaftan printed with a photo from Helmut Newton's "Big Nudes" series that really had the spectators doing a double-take.
Salinas, the well-heeled teens' label of choice, eased off the saccharine and toned down the screaming pinks, delivering an unusually sophisticated collection dominated by black and white polka dots. The theme was "La Dolce Vita," and competing snippets from the soundtracks of classic Italian movies from the 1960s blared over the loudspeakers as the models strutted the
polka-dotted catwalk in vertigious heels. The label blurred the usually well-defined line between one pieces and bikinis, sending out spotted bandeau tops with high-rise granny pants bottoms or itsy-bitsy bottoms with a maxi-top that nearly reached the models' navels. Both looks left only the thinnest sleeve of exposed skin
between top and bottom.
While the swimwear shows are always the highlight of Rio's summer lineup, most of the labels field daywear. Top daywear displays included Oh, Boy, which fielded a collection of denim shorts and tops so abbreviated and so laden with tassels, studs, rhinestones, patches and other embellishments
they hit the sweet spot where tacky becomes fabulous.
Reserva lived up to its reputation as Rio's answer to the intellectual Belgian label Martin Margiela with a performance-influenced show that was heavy on concept, light on actual clothes. The show, among the week's sole menwear displays, saw a parade of hipster-
looking male models from whose backs emerged clothes racks, each hung with a costume that dangled a meter (yard) in front of them, as if to suggest the remarkable character they had lurking inside — a pirate, Superman, Fred Flintstone
- beneath the unremarkable streetwear.

Ben Affleck backstage at the 85th annual Academy Awards at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles, California on February 24. He recently pledged to "Live Below the Line" off $1.50 a day, which is an initiative sponsored by the Global Poverty Project.
Affleck throws weight behind 'Live Below the Line' campaign
MCCLATCHY TRIBUNE
LOS ANGELES — The idea of Ben Affleck living on $1.50 a day sounds ridiculous, right? Maybe just as ridiculous as Hugh Jackman doing the same thing.
The "Argo" director-producerstar is the latest celebrity showing his support for the Global Poverty Project's Live Below the Line campaign, a position Jackman initiated for the organization in 2011.
The Oscar winner took on the organization's challenge to spend five days feeding himself on only $1.50 a day, which is the U.S. equivalent of the extreme poverty line. He showed his support for the initiative on Twitter.
"1.4 billion people live on less than $1.50/day. I'm joining Live #BelowTheLine on behalf of @ easterncongo. Will you?" Affleck tweeted.
The challenge is meant to "give
a glimpse into the lives of 1.4 billion people who have no choice but to live below the line every day — and who have to make $1.50 cover a lot more than food," according to the organization's website.
Jonah Hill, Sophia Bush, Katie Couric and Scooter Braun

also tweeted their support for the cause. And Debi Mazar and Hunter Biden are among other celebrities who have lended their names to the project.
"In today's world, extreme poverty and inequality are unjustifiable and unfair. Live Below the Line demonstrates the problem in a concrete way, while raising money to address the problem," said musician Josh Groban, who has raised $4,700 for the cause so far.
"The Avengers" actor Tom Hiddleston posted a video of himself on his fifth day on the challenge that he shot in his kitchen. His lunch was a simple baked potato. He also tweeted his meals while completing the challenge, which included boiled rice with veggies or an omelet and kidney beans.
"Profoundly aware that to live truly *belowtheline I would have to forego many & various privileges...*" he noted in early April, adding, "To live truly *belowtheline I would have to surrender the roof over my head, gas, electricity, and clean, running water."

THE MORNING BREW Five players to consider before the NFL draft
This year's draft has some great prospects at the "meat and potatoes" positions (i.e. offensive line, defensive line and linebacker), but a majority of the skill players available in this year's draft come with several question marks. Here are the five potential first-round caliber skill players who present teams with the most risk and reward.
By Chris Schaeder
cschaeder@kansan.com
Cordarrelle Patterson, WR, Tennessee
Patterson's physical abilities are not in question. He's a freakishly gifted athlete who has the ideal height, weight and speed to be an elite receiver in the NFL. Off-the-field concerns, however, have teams thinking twice about drafting Patterson. He only has one year of big-time college experience and scouts have questioned his ability to study tape and improve his route running. If a team with good coaching and leadership drafts him, Patterson could be a big-time playmaker for the next decade.
Justin Hunter. WR. Tennessee
Justin Hunter, WK, Tennessee
Hunter is another extremely talented receiver coming out of Knoxville with the potential to influence today's NFL. He has more collegiate experience than Patterson had at Tennessee, but doesn't possess the same big-play ability. However, Hunter has an excellent combination of height,
length and speed that could make him a top redzone target. Scouts do have their concerns about Hunter. He's had some injuries, including a torn ACL in September 2011, and his toughness and willingness to go over the middle are signs of concern. Hunter could be a great addition to a team as a second or third receiving option.
Eddie Lacv. RB. Alabama
Lacy is another talented SEC prospect that played a big role in the Crimson Tide's 2012 national championship. His toughness on the field hasn't been questioned, as he is a decisive runner who doesn't go down on first contact. Lacy is also thought of as a team player that'll play anywhere, including covering kicks on special teams. The main concern with Lacy is his injury history. Lacy suffered a toe injury in 2011 that required surgery after the season
and in 2012 he struggled with a sprained ankle. The only other question about Lacy is whether he's first-round pick worthy. Today's NFL relies heavily on strong quarterbacks and a dynamic passing game and the sport favors passing now more than ever. Should a team take a chance on a talented running back? I see Lacy going to a team like the Green Bay Packers at 26 or the Atlanta Falcons at 30 late in the first-round.
Geno Smith, QB. West Virginia
Smith is the most polarizing figure of this year's draft. Some scouts have him as one of the best players in this year's class, while others don't project him as a first-round pick. This year's crop of quarterbacks is weaker than it's been in a long time. Unless a team trades up into the first round, I could see Smith slipping toward the beginning of Round 2. He put up phenomenal stats at West Virginia, but he did so in an air-raid offense lacking the complexity or difficulty of a professional football offense. He has the physical makeup of an NFL quarterback, but his digression last season has scouts questioning his NFL potential. Smith would be a good option for a team looking to develop him under a veteran quarterback rather than having to start from day one.
KU
Ryan Nassib. QB. Syracuse
Nassib is a prospect who quietly climbed teams' draft boards in recent weeks and has impressed with his intangibles and mental makeup. He was a productive player at Syracuse, but could be a bust if the wrong team drafts him. Buffalo at number eight intrigues me because his coach at Syracuse, Doug Marrone, is now the coach of the Bills and I could see the team taking Nassib at number eight or trading back into the first round to get him. This situation is comparable to Ryan Tannehill and the Dolphins last season. Tannehill's coach at Texas A&M, Mike Sherman, was the new offensive coordinator for the Dolphins and Tannehill's familiarity with the offense was a catalyst for a successful rookie season. If a team other than the Bills drafts Nassib, I have a harder time determining his NFL potential.

Braves beat Rockies 4-3 in below freezing temperatures
ASSOCIATED PRESS
DENVER — On the coldest day of play at Coors Field in recorded history, the Atlanta Braves won a game between two of the hottest teams in the major leagues.
Starting a day-night doubleheader that opened with a 23-degree temperature, Justin Upton hit his major league-leading 10th home run, Dan Uggla and rookie Evan Gattis also connected, and the Braves beat the Colorado Rockies 4-3 Tuesday.
Reed Johnson, playing right field for Atlanta because Jason Heyward underwent an appendectomy Monday night, went 4-4 with three doubles. Heyward was put on the 15-day disabled list.
Colorado and Atlanta each began the day at 13-5, tied for the best record in the major leagues.
This was the coldest gametime temperature in the majors since it
began collecting data in 1991, according to STATS, Inc. The Rockies said the previous low at Coors Field was 28.
Pitching in short sleeves while many of the other players were bundled up, Mike Minor (3-1) allowed three runs and five hits in six innings. By the time Craig Kimbrel, pitched a one-hit ninth for his eighth save in eight chances, the temperature had warmed up to 27.
Gattis hit a tiebreaking home run in the fourth and ended the game by throwing out Wilin Rosario trying to steal second.
Jeff Francis (1-2) gave up four runs and six hits in four innings, leaving him with an 8.44 ERA.
Ground crews began working around 6 a.m. to clear several inches of snow from the playing surface at Coors Field, which opened in 1995. While there was no sign of snow on the field when the game started,
some parts of the ballpark remained closed, including the snow-filled Rockpile section in center. Workers hosed off the snow on the stand of evergreen trees beyond the center field wall. It was important that the trees be cleared of the snow because they're part of the green "batters' eve" background.
It's been a wintry April for Denver, which has been hit by a wave of snowy weather over the past nine days that forced postponements of games three times. The delays led to two doubleheaders within a week.
Upton hit a solo drive in the first, and Upton's two-run homer in the second made it 3-0. Colorado closed in the second on Rosario's run-scoring groundout and Jordan Pacheco's RBI single, then tied the score in the third when Dexter Fowler tripled to the right-field wall and Josh Rutledge sung.

Big 12 teams look to replace quarterbacks for upcoming season
ASSOCIATED PRESS
The Big 12 is facing an identity crisis at quarterback, with a lot of different players preparing to take snaps this fall.
Seven of the league's 10 teams had senior quarterbacks, providing for a lot of changes during spring practice.
"With new QBs, there are always question marks," Baylor coach Art Briles said Tuesday. "I mean you don't really know until you know. The only way to know is to get out on the field with them in the heat of battle and find out how they respond. Yeah, it changes the dynamics of the league 100 percent."
Gone are the likes of Landry Jones, who started 50 games for Oklahoma, West Virginia standout Geno Smith, Heisman Trophy finalist Collin Klein from Kansas State and Baylor's Nick Florence, who led the big 12 in offensive yards last season after Robert Griffin III won the Heisman for the Bears the previous year.
"There's years where we've had the best, quarterbacks in the country in our league, and last year was one of them," Texas coach Mack Brown said during the league coaches' teleconference.
"There's a little bit of unknown until those new guys get out there and you see their abilities and what they do for their football team. There's certainly no lack of talent," Iowa State coach Paul Rhoads said. "I'm happy certainly that a lot of those guys have graduated and teams are having to break in new quarterbacks, but still fearful of the talent level that remains at that position."
All the changes at the most high-profile position could lead to a wide-open race for the Big 12 title.
The Longhorns have the league's most experienced returning quarterback in junior David Ash, who has started 18 of his 25 games and
"I would think so," Brown said.
"There's a lot of question marks in our league and that has not been the case the last couple of years."
has Case McCoy as his backup.
Casey Pachall returned this spring to TCU, where he started 17 of 25 games, including the first four last season as a junior before leaving school for substance
abuse rehabilitation. Freshman Trevone Boykin took over as the starter, passing for 2,054 yards and 15 touchdowns.
quarterbacks who won as starters last season. Wes Lunt and J.W. Walsh both started games as freshmen before getting hurt, then Clint Chelf finished the season and was first-string through the spring.
TCU coach Gary Patterson
"With new QBs, there are always question marks."
said he won't name a starting quarterback until two-a-day practices in August.
Oklahoma State returns three
"When we left spring last year, we felt like that we could only play with one quarterback, and obviously after four games we couldn't play with him," Patterson said. "Trevone grew up a lot during the season. He's far surpassed that, enough to where that race at quarterback is very close."

ran 102 times for

the past two seasons, and then was one of three quarterbacks to throw touchdown passes in the Sooners' spring game this month.
"He's always been able to throw the football well. Ellen. Blake throws a great deep ball," Sooners coach Bob Stoops said.
Kansas State returns all five starters on the offensive line. As for who they'll be blocking for this season, Daniel Sams, the primary backup for Klein, and highly touted junior
college transfer lake Waters are the leading candidates.
Coach Bill Snyder said there "is no clear-cut No. 1" and that both are getting equal snaps with the first- and second-team offensives this spring.
West Virginia also had a 50-50 split of reps at the quarterback spot this spring between Paul Millard and Ford Childress while trying to determine who succeeds Smith.
"Wide open, man," West Virginia coach Dana Holgorsen said. "We will kind of encourage them to get out there and throw with the guys and study film for the next 3 1/2 months. ... Then get the race kickstarted back in August to see who made the most progress. We don't have to make the decision now."
Kansas has Jake Heaps, who was a freshman starting quarterback for BYU and can now play for the Jayhawks after sitting out last season following his transfer. He played 22 games for the Cougars, including 16 starts.
Texas Tech, with former standout quarterback Kliff Kingsbury now its coach, has to replace senior Seth Doege. Sophomore Michael Brewer and freshman Davis Webb, who went through spring drills after graduating from high school in December, combined for 506 yards passing and three touchdowns in the Red Raiders' spring game.
Bryce Petty gets his chance as Baylor's starter after being on the team with Griffin and then Florence the past three years, including a redshirt season.
Sophomore Sam Richardson got to start a couple of games at the end of last season for Iowa State, who had a senior starter until that point.
"Quarterback play certainly has not gotten us to a position where we can win the nitty-gritty games. That's a position that every program looks for a difference maker," Rhoads said. "That's a position we have to get better play out of to get us in the top half of the Big 12 conference."

Minnesota Twins' Brian Dozier dives safely into third for a triple off Miami Marlins pitcher Jose Fernandez in the first inning of Tuesday's game in Minneapolis.
Arcia's three-run homer in the fourth backed Correia (2-1), who allowed five hits and struck out five. The Twins shrugged off yet another chilly day at Target Field to win their fifth straight. Brian Dozier had three hits, and Glen Perkins earned his sixth save.
MINNEAPOLIS — Oswald Ardo hit his first career home run and Kevin Correia gave up two runs in seven innings, leading the Minnesota Twins over the Miami Marlins 4-3 Tuesday in the opener of a daytime doubleheader.
ASSOCIATED PRESS
Arcia hits first career home run against Marlins
The teams were supposed to open their series on Monday night, but the latest snowstorm put that one on ice. It was the third home game the Twins have had to postpone because of weather this year
Jose Fernandez (0-2) gave up four runs and six hits for the Marlins, who are off to a franchise-worst 4-16 start after an offseason salary purge. Joe Mahoney had two hits and two RBIs for Miami.
The temperature at first pitch was 38 degrees, but the field, which has heater coils underneath it to combat cold temperatures, was lush and green.
— there were just five in the first three seasons of Target Field.
Grounds crew members and ballpark personnel worked through the night to clear the heavy, wet snow from the field, seats and stairways.
Miami took a 2-1 lead in the fourth on a single from Mahoney but Fernandez, initially was scheduled to start the second game, gave it all back in the bottom half.
Chris Parmelne and Trevor Plouffe started the inning with singles and Arcia stood and admired as his homer landed just short of the plaza beyond the right-field seats for a 4-2 lead.
Miami had the bases loaded with one out in the eighth after Jared Burton hit Placido Polanco and Giancarlo Stanton with pitches. But the Marlins were able to get one run across, on a groundout from Greg Dobbs.

PITCHING
Thomas Taylor's 2.47 ERA and 4-0 record leads a rotation that still features an opening at the end of the rotation. The Saturday spot has been solidified by sophomore left-handed pitcher Wes Benjamin's 4.50 ERA and 4-4 record. Kansas junior closer Jordan Piche' was named to the National College Baseball Writers' Association Stopper of the Year watchlist for his NCAA leading 8 saves and 4.7 ERA.
HITTING
Kansas hitters continue to grind out offense with small ball tactics. Sophomore rightfielder Michael Sutler continues to lead the team offensively with a .364 batting average, 52 hits and 20 RBIs. Senior first baseman Alex DeLeon is the only other Jayhawk hitting above .300 on the season. His four home runs lead the squad.
FIELDING
Kansas fielders are holding strong late in the season. Their 40 errors committed in 39 games is good for a .973 fielding percentage. The Kansas starting infield has combined for 20 errors on the season. The Jayhawks continued attention to detail has been tested of late with several indoor practices due to recent inclement weather.

Baker pitching has struggled on the 6-33 campaign. With a team ERA of 4.29 in 39 games this season, the Wildcats struggles run deeper than the starting lineup. Freshman pitcher Justin Bye leads the staff with a 1-1 record and a 2.95 ERA in 10 appearances. Sophomore Pitcher Ryan Lasneske is another leader on the staff with a 1-4 record and 4.76 ERA.
HITTING
Senior third baseman Bryan Kindle leads a beacquered Baker lineup at the plate. His .283 average, 34 hits and nine RBIs are the highest on a squad that continues to struggle at the plate. The Wildcats carry a .239 average into their matchup with the Jayhawks. Their five home runs suggest it may be a long night for the Wildcats in Hoglund Ballpark.
FIELDING
The Wildcats have committed 67 errors on the season, lowering their fielding percentage to .947 on the season. Sophomore shortstop Tevin Thompson is one of the leading culpits. Thompson's 15 errors tie junior secondbasesman Matt Fry for the most on the season. The middle infield isn't a good locale for erroneous play. Look for Kansas to attack the base paths against a less than stellar defense.

The Big 12 committee canceled the third round of the tournament initially scheduled for Tuesday early that morning, and a coaches meeting later in the afternoon decided that the third round.
as a whole, has been cut from the tournament schedule.
Now the Jayhawks have only one round to come back from what was a nightmare of a second round. Kansas is currently 25-over-par for the second
round. Kansas' score is the worst second round score by seven strokes — Kansas State's 18-over-par is the next worst second round score.
The Jayhaws' second round is not in set stone, two Kansas golfers finished
their rounds Monday, but Chris Gilbert has two holes remaining while Stan Gautier and Alex Gutesha have one hole left to play.
Gilbert, ranked No. 96 in the nation individually, has been the only ray of
light the Jayhawks have seen so far at the tournament. Gilbert is tied for third at one-over-par for the tournament after his field-best one-under performance in the first round.

COMMENTARY
Heaps inherits a tough position
By Mike Vernon
invernon@kansan.com
I do not envy the role of new Kansas quarterback Jake Heaps this year. And neither should you. His task hasn't been successfully accomplished since 2009's Todd Reesing kept Kansas football treading water.
It's as tough a spot as any to be in. The odds are against him. Jake Heaps is the key to making Kansas football fun this year. Winning a few games will go a long way, but improving a passing offense that was ranked 113th in the country last season will make Jayhawk football much more bearable to the average fan.
Sure, it's tough to say Heaps is the sole key. The offensive line's protection will be crucial and his wide receivers will have to do a better job getting open, which won't be too hard considering last year's group caught zero — yes, zero — touchdown passes.
"I don't know if I've ever seen a statistic like that," Heaps said in early March. "We expect a lot more from our receiving core, and our receiving core themselves expect a lot more."
That's not fun football. It's not fun to watch. It can't be fun to play. And it can't be fun to coach, either.
Heaps' job is to fill what's been missing from Jayhawk football the past three seasons: a quarterback.
His coach, Charlie Weis, is a supposed quarterback and passing guru, so he does have that going for him — but recent history sure isn't.
Ever since the departure of coach Mark Mangino and Reesing, the Kansas offense has had a gaping hole of a passing game. In 2009, the duo's final season, the Jayhawks' passing offense was ranked No. 7 in the nation, averaging 310 yards per game.
The passing offense hasn't surpassed a top 100 spot in the nation since that season. The quarterback spot has been a rotating door with names such as Pick, Webb, Meachum and Crist.
its best year was 2011, when it ranked No. 101, averaging a meager 167 yards per game.
With the modern era of college football turning more toward spread offenses that energize crowds and players, the Jayhawks have been flat. In defense of last season's 113th ranking, the rush offense cracked the top 25, averaging 211 yards a game.
It was better, and those pieces that made the Kansas backfield strong are still in Lawrence.
Now it's up to Heaps to finish the job. A strong passing game will only help the running game and vice versa.
Jake Heaps can make Kansas football appealing. He can help make it respectable. And most of all, he can help bring the fun back.

WINTER IS COMING... AGAIN
WEATHER WOES
After rescheduling, Kansas primes for a showdown with Baker University
TREVOR GRAFF
tgraff@kansan.com
Old Man Winter continues to wreak havoc on the Kansas baseball schedule. After cancelling Tuesday's game against Oral Roberts, the Jayhawks prepare to face NAIA foe Baker University.
The continued shuffling of the schedule and practice routine hasn't slowed the jayhawks winning ways this season.
"It been a brutal year with the cold weather," said sophomore rightfielder Dakota Smith. "Last year we didn't have to go indoors a lot and this year we're doing it a lot more. It makes it tough to get out on the field and get defensive reps."
Smith said, as an outfitter, not getting as many repairs outdoors defensively is difficult, but certainly not an excuse.
"It's a little rough, but we do what we can with it," Smith said.
With 56-degree weather predicted for Wednesday's game against Baker, the Jayhawks will be playing in their familiar cold
weather setting.
Add to the odd weather the Jayhawks second place standing behind the Big 12 conference-leading Oklahoma Sooners and it's easy to overlook the game ahead.
season. For the Jayhawks, focusing on the game inning by inning is the answer to this pressure.
"It's been a brutal year with the cold weather."
DAKOTA SMITH
sophomore right-fielder
"It's definitely pretty exciting" said senior shortstop Kevin Kuntz. "A lot of guys are paying attention to the stats and our record. Every game from here on out is huge. We obviously want to win every game, but we just have to come out and do our best and bring energy."
the layhawks' defensive efforts
Conference championship races present many distractions for teams entering the stretch run of a
defensive efforts of late have led the team to their solid start in the Big 12. One major component of the defense is the middle infield pair of senior shortstop Kevin Kuntz and sophomore second baseman Justin Protocio.
The two have developed a strong chemistry through the course of the season as the Jayhawks' double play manufacturers.
"We just have fun everyday practicing in the middle infield." Kuntz said. "We're just comfortable in practice and we've known each other for a while. We do what we can to help each other and make each other better each and
every day."
Defensive improvement hasn't stopped in the infield. Kansas' corps of outfielders — sophomore leftfielder Michael Suiter, junior centerfender Tucker Tharp and sophomore rightfielder Dakota Smith — have put last season's defensive woes to rest.
"I think coach Hood has helped us out with a bunch of the little things that we struggled with last season," Smith said. "Having a year under our belts, me and Suiter, has helped a lot. Just playing better competition and playing more. Tharp is solid anyway so getting more experience has really helped us out."
With the Baker Wildcats coming to Hoglund Ballpark, the focus will turn to the fundamentals and getting young players into the lineup. The Jayhawks arrive at the stretch run of the season poised to cement a spot in the top three of the conference.
The pressure that goes with competing at the top of your conference is something Kansas players refuse to focus on.
"No," junior closer Jordan Piche' said. "No pressure right now. We're enjoying where we're at and the ball's in our court right now. We're sitting really good and guys are getting really hot as well. Nothing changes. We'll go about business as usual and go get some wins this week."

Kansas schedules doubleheader after cancellations

The Jayhawks and the Kangaeros of UMKC face off in a doubleheader on Wednesday at Arrocha Ballpark after inclement weather forced the games to be moved from Tuesday in Kansas City, Mo.
Kansas enters the game with a 27-13 record, but have yet to win a game in Lawrence this season, going 0-3 at home. The Jayhawks
lead the Big 12 in batting average for the 11th-straight week hitting .346. Senior Maggie Hull is also the Big 12 batting average leader, with an average of .450.

year, because we haven't been able to play at home. It makes a difference in terms of our kids' stress levels and now they'll be able to stay at home and sleep in their own beds and have the comfort of that. We are excited to be at home for a bit."
Smith
UMKC enters Wednesday with a four-game winning streak, a 16-
17 record overall and a 5-3 mark in the Summit League. The Kangaroos are a solid hitting team; they bat .289 as a team. Pitching is a major concern for UMKC. The team's pitching staff has a combined ERA of 6.50 and they rely on two pitches, senior Denna Friese and sophomore Cinda Ramos, to shoulder the load.
Despite the Kangaroo's high ERA, coach Smith said in a KU Athletics news release that she's more worried about UMKC's abilities on the mound.
"I don't look at their pitchers ERAS. I look at the fact that they have a pitcher who can strike out a lot of people (Deanna Friese) and hold people to a low batting average. She has always pitched well against us, they have always played well against us and I'm sure this year will be the same. These will be two really good games."
Coach Smith said in a KU Athletics news release that scoring more runs is important to the team's success.
Although the Jayhawks lead the Big 12 in team batting average, they've been inconsistent in run production over the last several games. In the last five games, Kansas has scored 0, 11, 1, 9 and 1 runs in games against Furman University and Oklahoma State.
"It is more of a state of mind than anything. There are some mechanical things that we will work on with our offense, but it is more of a state of mind. It is having that tighter mentality when you get in the box, and that competitiveness that you have when you are reacting to a pitcher," Smith said. "Whenever we have runners in scoring position, instead of taking the lead and attacking, we step back and let the pitcher attack us.
Kansas has dominated UMKC throughout the teams' series history, going 29-2 against the Kangaroos. The two teams have played every year since 1999 and the Jayhawks are 18-0 against UMKC in Lawrence. UMKC's last victory over Kansas came on March 30, 2011 in Kansas City, Mo.
We have to do a better job with that. We are going to talk about it and work on some things at practice. We have a great offense and we have really good hitters, it's just a matter of getting them to produce in RBI situations."
Wednesday's doubleheader will be the first midweek game for Kansas this season after games against Missouri State and Nebraska were cancelled due to inclement weather.

DAY DRINKIN'
Students take their parties outside when the weather gets warm enough
JENNA JAKOWATZ
jjakowatz@kansan.com
Take a drive down Tennessee or Kentucky streets on a warm Saturday afternoon, and you will find dozens of students socializing on a porch or lawn. Porch drinking is a popular pastime for students in Lawrence, especially during the spring and summer months when the weather is warm enough to spend a few hours outside.
For Travis Seipel, a junior from San Francisco, the warm spring weather reminds him of home. He said he is taking advantage of his first-floor apartment's porch located just a block north of Memorial Stadium.
"This is the first time since football season that it's been warm enough to drink outside," Seipel said. "I'm definitely utilizing the nice weather."
Seipel has been at his residence since August, and his apartment proved to be a popular spot during football and basketball games. Recently, his apartment has been a popular hangout for his friends to meet up and enjoy a few drinks outside.
Seipel has a custom-made beer pong table that he and a friend made out of a door a couple of years ago. He has the table set up on the lawn most Fridays and Saturdays for anyone who wants to challenge Seipel and his roommates to a game of beer pong.
"It's not as busy here as it was during football season, but I imagine graduation will bring out more people," Seipel said.
One of Seipel's friends, Joey Lamping, a junior from Wichita, frequents Seipel's house because of its location: There are plenty of other students around, and it's close to a liquor store.
"We drink out here pretty much any time it is over jacket weather," Lamping said.
Lamping said that when the
weather is nice enough, he usually spends his Saturday drinking outside with friends.
"We'll play beer pong, washers, some other drinking games," he said. "It's just nice to enjoy the mild spring weather because it will be ungodly hot in a few weeks."
Seipel and Lamping have made friends with Seipel's neighbors, and usually the three residencies will join into one large get-together. They will share beer, cups and food and usually play several rounds of beer pong.
"It's definitely a plus having neighbors that are cool with what we're doing," Seiel said.
Although porch drinking might seem like a Saturday afternoon activity, Seipel admits to drinking during the weekdays on occasion.
"But only if I have classes late the next day," Seipel said.

"There's just something about nice weather that makes drinking outside so relaxing." Seipel said.

Phone app combats sexual assault
EMILY DONOVAN
edonovan@kansan.com
He had already been turned down once. As he asks one of her female friends to dance again, he doesn't notice Alexa Roy make eye contact with her friend who casually but purposefully adjusts the collar of her blouse.
"Oh, I really need to go to the bathroom," Roy says before grabbing her friend's arm and leading her away. "Can we go?"
Pulling on her shirt may seem like an insignificant act, but the simple signal has helped Roy, a sophomore from Shawnee, and her group of female friends save each other from countless undesired, "weird" experiences with men. They stick together, they communicate and they keep to a plan.
Now, they have a default plan — thanks to their smartphones. Circle of 6 is a free iPhone and Android application designed to combat sexual assault.
This mobile buddy system allows the user to discretely send a text to six friends asking for a safe ride home with a link to her location on Google Maps, asking for them to call and pretend it's important to provide an interruption or asking for advice to prevent relationship abuse. An exclamation point icon dials a national rape or sexual assault hotline, a relationship abuse hotline and a programmable custom number.
"If you're in a bad situation, a lot of the time it's not as easy as picking up your phone and calling 911," Roy said. "A lot of the times, you don't really know what to do; you don't know who to call; maybe it's not an emergency. Circle of 6 is great because it provides options."
When Christine Corbett Moran,
Roy likes the app because she believes that if she weren't thinking logically or wasn't sure what she should do next, Circle of 6 would think for her to help her make the right and safest decision.
the programmer who created the application, awoke in the middle of the night to find an acquaintance-turned-stalker staring at her from the floor next to her bed, she was flustered. After she rushed him out the door, a Google search eventually landed her on a suicide hotline rather than with the support she really needed.
As Vice President of Philanthropy for Alpha Chi Omega Sorority, Phi Chapter at the University, Roy works to make her peers recognize dating violence and sexual assault. Nationally, Alpha Chi Omega supports domestic violence awareness and prevention. Locally, the sorority's fundraisers benefit the Willow Domestic Violence Center, headquartered in Lawrence.
"Any funds that we raise go directly into the community." Roy said. "They help women who we might see at the grocery store."
Brian Hillix, a junior from Camden Point, Mo., believes that men and women should be aware
of the prevalence of sexual violence if they hope to prevent it. If one of his friends contacts him in the middle of the night, he's prepared to get out of bed and give him or her a ride.
"Without questioning them further, I would head to my car immediately." Hillix said.
The deceptively simple application targets college-age women, attempting to combat the statistic that one in five women report being sexually assaulted before they graduate.
"If we can get just six people taking care of each other, taking care of their friends, how many instances of sexual assault would that prevent?" Roy said. "It's like the butterfly effect — maybe everyone has each other in their circles, and it just becomes a lot safer on campus."

HEALTH
China home to new lethal flu
ASSOCIATED PRESS
BEIJING — A new strain of bird flu that emerged in China over the past month is one of the "most lethal" flu viruses so far, worrying health officials because it can jump more easily from birds to humans than the one that started killing people a decade ago. World Health Organization officials said Wednesday.
Scientists are watching the virus closely to see if it could spark a global pandemic but say there is little evidence so far that it can spread easily from human to human.
WHO's top influenza expert, Dr. Keiji Fukuda, told reporters at a briefing in Beijing that people seem to catch the H7N9 virus from birds more easily than the H5N1 strain that began ravaging poultry across Asia in 2003. The
"This is definitely one of the most lethal influenza viruses we have seen so far," Fukuda said. But he added that experts are still trying to understand the virus, and that there might be a large number of mild infections that are going undetected.
Health experts are concerned about HYN9's ability to jump to humans, and about the strain's capacity to infect birds without causing noticeable symptoms, which makes it difficult to monitor its spread.
H5N1 strain has since killed 360 people worldwide, mostly after contact with infected fowl.
The H7N9 bird flu virus has infected more than 100 people in China, seriously sickening most of them and killing more than 20, mostly near the eastern coast around Shanghai, Taiwan on Wednesday confirmed its
first case, a 53-year-old man who became sick after returning from a visit to the eastern Chinese province of Jiangsu.
In comparison, the earlier bird flu strain, H5N1, is known to kill up to 60 of every 100 people it infects.
Wednesday's briefing came at the end of a weeklong joint investigation by WHO and Chinese authorities in Beijing and Shanghai.
Experts said they still aren't sure how people are getting infected but said evidence points to infections at live poultry markets, particularly through ducks and chickens. They said it was encouraging that reported infections appeared to slow down after the closure of live poultry markets in affected areas.

100TH BIRTHDAY
University celebrates anniversary

One of John Guenther's favorite quotes by Winston Churchill reads: "We shape our buildings; thereafter they shape us."
Much like the buildings mentioned, Guenther, a 1977 graduate of the KU School of Architecture, believes that the faculty over the
past century has helped to shape his education and professional career.
"They have been formed through a variety of experiences from their own teachers, and
highly regarded programs in the Midwest.
"What's distinct about the place is that it is from the very beginning made up of people who are highly rec-

ognized within the field."
As he became the school's unofficial historian, he realized the "diverse and cosmopolitan" faculty were well-versed in the field.
That quilt extends 100 years, and this weekend, the School of Architecture Planning and Design will commemorate a century of being one of the most
STEPHEN GRABOW Professor of Architecture
"I realized how many amazing connections there were to some of the most famous and significant people in the history of modern architecture," he said. "So this little school on the prairie is actually
incredibly well-connected."
In fact, the school's first professor, Goldwin Goldsmith, was an apprentice to Stanford White, one of the most famous architects in New York.
"What's distinct about the place is that it is from the very beginning made up of people who are highly recognized within the field." Grabow said.
Since 1912, thousands of faculty
members and students have come and gone, but lately, Grabow has noticed a "generational change" in the school. However, the new faculty are equipped with new points of view and experiences.
"They bring the same variety of skills and experiences and so I think the future is with that new generation of both students and faculty," he said. "They're different, but they're just as diverse."
Looking back on his time at the school, Guenther remembers a certain professor, Fount Smothers, having an impact on him during a studio project at Lake Perry.
Teams of three to five designed a shelter to live in for a weekend at the lake, incorporating elements of environmental design. During the project, Guenther said heavy rains turned their peninsula into an island.
While professors debated to save them, Smothers said they must see it through to the end.
"It was absolutely the most incredible educational experience, it was an experience with community to be literally with all of your classmates on this island, no one can really get to you, so to speak," he said. "It's just this wonderful weekend of community, and design and camaraderie and
fellowship. I'll never forget it."
In his career, Guenther said environmental design has been most important to himself and his practice in St. Louis.
"I's just fascinating to me as I reflect upon how we've been shaped and formed by our professors at the University of Kansas, it has influenced us and inspired us to go forward," he said. "It's a beautiful continuum if you really stop and think about that students there today are having those same kinds of experiences."
Andrew Kloppenburg, a second-year M-Aarch student and student of Grabow's from St. Louis, said the school goes beyond teaching technical skills.
"What impresses me is how our studio professors teach us to see, think, and plan differently," he said. "We are taught to focus on broad concepts objectively, but also instructed to apply concepts in practical applications, doing so artfully."
Events to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the school include a birthday party, reception and alumni banquet on Friday and tours of Marvin Hall and Joe's Donuts on Saturday.

Leave Your Mark at the Rec
CAMPUS
The Leave Your Mark mural contest, sponsored by the Ambler Student Recreation Fitness Center, is a chance for students to be a part of campus and give back to the student-funded building.
Rebecca Goering, communications coordinator for the rec, said they created the contest to get students involved while honoring Dr. David Ambler, whom the building was named after.
"We want students to be able to add to it in a fun and cool way and still have a tie-in with Dr. Ambler," she said.
Any student is able to submit a design. The rules specify that the design must incorporate a non-abstract Jayhawk and a quote by Ambler: "Remember your nest, return to it often. And never forget this unique bird that has set you free!"
Entries should include an explanation of the design, including what symbolism is incorporated and the inspiration for the design, and the participant's name, phone number and email. Entries must be submitted to the rec's office by June 12 at 5 p.m.
The winning entry will be painted on a 34-by-8-foot cinderblock wall at the rec.
"It's a fun way to get the students involved in another way besides coming here to work out," she said.
Goering is hoping the contest draws a lot of student participation.

State passes gay marriage legislation
ASSOCIATED PRESS
PROVIDENCE, R.I. — Rhode Island is on a path to becoming the 10th state to allow gay and lesbian couples to marry after a landmark vote in the state's Senate on Wednesday.
The Senate passed gay marriage legislation by a comfortable 26-12 margin, following a House vote of approval in January. The bill must now return to the House for a largely procedural vote, likely next week, but the celebration began Wednesday.
Hundreds of people filled the
Statehouse with cheers following the vote.
"I grew up in Rhode Island and I'd like to retire in Rhode Island," said Annie Silvia, 61, who now lives with her partner of 30 years just across the border in North Attleboro, Mass. "No. 10 is a nice round number, but I'd like it to be bigger. Fifty sounds good to me."
Heavily Catholic Rhode Island is the last remaining New England state without gay marriage. Marriage legislation has been introduced in the state for nearly two decades, only to languish on the legislative agenda.
Supporters mounted a renewed push this year, and the Senate vote was seen as the critical test after the House easily passed the bill. Gov. Lincoln Chafee, an independent, called Wednesday's vote historic.
"I'm very much looking forward to signing this," he told The Associated Press as he congratulated supporters.
The first gay marriages in Rhode Island could take place Aug. 1, when the legislation would take effect. Civil unions would no longer be available to same-sex couples as of that date.
though the state would continue to recognize existing civil unions. Lawmakers approved civil unions two years ago, though few couples have sought them.
Hundreds of opponents also gathered at the Statehouse for the vote, singing hymns and holding signs as the Senate deliberated. Rev. David Rodriguez, a Providence minister, said he was disappointed by the voice. He said he planned to continue to stand up for traditional marriage.

40th annual book sale will be at county fairgrounds
From romance to graphic novels, students can choose from a selection of 50,000 to 60,000 books costing $2 or less beginning Thursday afternoon at the biannual Friends of the Lawrence Public Library book sale.
The selection comprises 65 genres of books including many classics required in philosophy, history and English classes at the University, said Ruth Dewitt, Friends of the Lawrence Public Library coordinator. At a cost of $1 for paperbacks and $2 for hard-backs, students can find a bargain on the variety of books, whether they are mysteries, science fiction novels or children's books, Dewitt said. DVDs, CDs and video games will also be on sale.
"You can walk out with an armload of
Now in its 40th year, the sale will be at the Douglas County Fairgrounds, on Harper St. between 19th and 23rd Street, and will open only to Friends members Thursday from 4 p.m. to 8 p.m. Membership can be purchased for $10 at the door. The sale will then be open to the public and continue Friday and Saturday from 10 a.m. until 6 p.m., and the remaining selection will be half price on Sunday from 12 p.m. to 6 p.m.
books for $10," Dewitt said. "Instead of paying $24 for a copy of, say, Micky Dick, they can get it here for one or $2."
Dewitt said the books on sale are donations from the public throughout the year to the Friends of the Lawrence Public Library.
"All the money we raise goes back to the library," Dewitt said.

STATE POLI
Governor's actions speak louder than words
Good ol' Sam Brownback has been touring the Regent Schools and stopped by the University this week to tell us all how important it is to fund these institutions. It was a bold move to be sure.
Brownback has been trying to drum up support for his "flat-funding" strategy that would maintain the level of funding currently received at these universities. The current level of funding is under siege from the legislature that Brownback has praised but has also noted has a dangerous mindset on education.
The legislature has mentioned the amount of private fundraising done as a part of "Bold Aspirations" as a reason why the University could pick up the slack if funding from the state was cut.
Gee, that kind of sounds a lot
like penalizing someone for succeeding in a capitalist environment, which would just be mildly hypocritical given their conservative philosophy.
As Brownback himself said this additional fundraising was meant to be just that - supplemental. It should not have to be a substitute for the funding from the state. Bold Aspirations doesn't work that way. Otherwise it would be called something like "Dedication to Stabilization" (or No Child Left Behind).
According to Brownback the legislature also wants to hold the University accountable for years of rising tuition, a noble pursuit of course. However, Chancellor Bernadette Gray-Little has said that increasing tuition again would be one of the first measures taken to cope with these

ccosby@kansan.com
state funding cuts
But Brownback doesn't get off the hook. Making the legislature sound bad does not qualify as a plan.
The legislature would not be pushed to be making these new cuts if it were not for his plan to further reduce taxes. He has said that with his plan we can keep the current level of funding and cut taxes. That plan isn't ideal to me, but I would certainly take it over a cut to funding on top of
the reduced taxes.
But if Brownback's plan does not win out and the legislature decides that because of the tax revenue decrease that they will have to cut funding to the universities, he needs to showcase his aforementioned dedication to state institutions and prioritize their interests.
While it is nice of the governor to tell us how important it is for us to be funded, action would be much more meaningful.
holders. As much as they talk, the actual way that they spend money is real tangible evidence of what matters to them the most.
If Brownback were to say that he will not go forward with his plan for tax cuts without approval of his budget which includes stabilizing funding, that would show some teeth. An actual display of where education lies on his priorities would be worth much more than another pep talk. That is the great thing about political office
A real commitment to education like that is the only way to prove that students and the institutions are a priority. Although it seems they all say it, many fewer back it up.
Brownback has said cutting funding to our universities will threaten plans for economic development. I hope he does something about it.

Jimmy Kimmel makes music snobs look completely foolish
Late night talk-show host and habitual button-pusher Jimmy Kimmel is pretty good at making people look stupid.
Over the last few years, he's mastered the art of viral videos, too. His show "jimmy Kimmel Live" is most known for its hilarious, unrehearsed segments involving regular people. For example, last year, he encouraged his viewers to tell their children they had eaten all their Halloween candy, tape the reaction and post it to YouTube. The compilation — which was somehow both hilarious and adorably heartbreaking — racked up millions of viewers on YouTube (it was all a joke and the kids still got their Halloween candy in the end... I think). He made a similar video by asking people to unplug the television during a pivotal play in the Super Bowl. People understandably flipped out and it turned into comedic gold.
Another one of his popular segments is called "Liewitness News", in which Kimmel sends a cameraman and reporter out on the street to ask passers by trick questions. This week, he sent the cameras to Coachella, a California music festival and worldwide music snobbery summit, to ask festivalgoers about which bands they planned on seeing. If you've never been to a big music festival, tons and tons of obscure bands play the smaller stages throughout the day before the headliners play at night. Most of them you haven't heard of.
By AJ Barbosa
abarbosa@kansan.com
So Kimmler's reporter made up a bunch of ridiculous, fake band names — like "The Chelsea Clinton's," or "Get the F**k out of my Pool" and asked patrons what they thought about each band. The result? Many lied and
said theyd heard of each band, adding all-too-familiar lines about how "unique" and "innovative" each bands' sound is. The idea was a success; almost everyone spewed out elaborate lies to the camera without so much as batting an eye. It went viral instantly.
Though watching unsuspecting people rattle off ad-libbed B.S. is funny in its own right, the reason this particular edition of "Liewitness News" is so funny is because it's so dead-on — it's so real that it hurts. If you don't get that, you've probably never met a music snob.
If you're "really into music," nine times out of 10, you're going to be a music snob. That's just the way it goes; I'm a music snob, too. Most of us began our journey in snobbery when we first went through a type of "phase" as young teenagers. For me, it started when my cousin gave me a Rancid album, thus beginning my years-long love affair with punk rock. Other people started off with an emo phase, or a metal phase.
In those days, we developed a sense of pride in finding obscure bands that none of our friends — those damn mainstreamers — had ever heard of. If that band made it big and everyone started listening to them, we got pissed. That's why, if you ask a music snob if they like Green Day, they'll say something along the lines of, "Yeah, but I stopped listening to them around the time when they put out 'American Idiot.' That's what I say, and that's why I'm a music snob.
Though it pains me to admit it, there have been plenty of times where I've pulled the same B.S. routine as the Coachella fans in the video; someone will have asked me, "Hey man, have you heard of [bblank]?" Since I'm a music snob and don't want to come off as being out-of-the-loop, I'd lie and say I had when I actually hadn't. My go-to line was always, "I've heard some of their older stuff. They're pretty good."
Music snobs are people, though, and people eventually grow. As I got older, I stopped feeling resentment towards some of my favorite bands whenever they put out a hit song and everyone started listening to them. I began to understand that it's perfectly acceptable to have never heard of a particular band; no matter how "cool" they may be at that particular moment. Eventually, you start to realize that no one is capable of being completely in-the-loop. You can't win 'em all.
That's OK, though. It's OK to say that you're not cool enough to have heard of some new band. It sucks, but it's OK. This realization is part of our evolution as music snobs. The first step to recovery is admitting you have a problem, and I, like many of my fellow music snubs, have that problem. It's time to fix it.
And, for the record, I always liked "American Idiot." Don't tell my friends.

HUMAN RIGHTS
Anti-gay groups lose legitimate argument
European streets were filled with masked men, and riot police volleying gas canisters over massive crowds. Many had been beaten out in the open streets. Letters filled with gunpowder have been sent to members of parliament. This wasn't a Greek protest against austerity or a terrorist plot. These were scenes from Paris in the days leading up to a vote on gay marriage last week.
Presented with events like that, it really is time to take a break from congratulating the LGBTQ movement in France and spend a few minutes scrutinizing the global anti-gay movement and its true motives.
There is no longer a legitimate policy argument against gay marriage. If you can find me one, please contact me, I'd be very interested to hear it. The anger and political discontent is no more than fuel to get constituents riled up and gather them to the political base.
It's weird how, in a world of drone strikes, Syrian civil war, and bomb plots left and right, the issue that consistently brings the public out in droves is letting two people in love get married.
This anti-gay movement has characterized marriage equality as an "assault on traditional marriage," but here's a friendly reminder: fewer than 5 percent of Americans identify as LGBTQ, according to a Williams Institute study from 2012. This isn't some gay Gestapo bearing down on innocent straight people and melting their rings down. There isn't an LGBTQ counterpart to the Koch Brothers, spending millions out of pocket to make everyone get gay married. This is a wildly successful grassroots movement on the side of truth that is finally hitting pay dirt.
Even the progressive Mecca of Paris has its enclaves of far-right activists scrabbling to spark political unrest. The conservative party is crumbling in France. With Sarkozy gone and infighting completely devastating their

CAMPUS CHIRPS BACK
Good on you, President Hollande and the French parliament, for calling a political bluff when you see one. Bowing to a maneuver like that would have just proven that if you can get angry enough, the debate around an issue doesn't matter. I hope that when the time comes in America, we'll do the same.
How do you feel about the KU Parking changes?

If Rhode Island is any indication, we're on the right track.
This phenomenon isn't isolated to France. Conservatives in America are on their last rope - According to USA Today, Rhode Island will soon allow gay marriage - and holding out on what has become a major part of their platform gives them the illusion of unity. The more bombastic and insane the dialogue they can generate around the issue, the more constituents they can pull onto the bandwagon. That's why, according to Associated Press, Michigan Republican National Committee Leader Dave Agema continued to defend an article he shared that claimed that gays and lesbians account for "half the murders in major cities." What was his reason for holding his ground? He was just trying to maintain the traditional Republican platform.
political viability, the issue of gay marriage has been the conservative's chance to unify.

Beneath the dreadlocked stresses and the inky armor of his many, many tattoos, Rob Zombie has always been a movie geek at heart, a fanboy trapped in the body of a motley shock-rocker. White Zombie, the now-defunct metal band he co-founded in 1985, took its name from a 1932 Bela Lugosi voooo thriller, and songs like "Living Dead Girl" and "Never Gonna Stop (The Red Red Kroovy)" are littered with loving allusions to sci-fi and horror classics like "The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari" and "A Clockwork Orange."
HOLLYWOOD
After years of directing his own music videos, Zombie shambled into cinema with the backwoods creepshow "House of 1,000 Corpses" and its gleefully demonic successor "The Devil's Rejects." The latter established him as a legitimate filmmaker with a knack for blending grusome violence with kooky referential humor, like his decision to name every member of the murderous Firefly family after a different Groucho Marx character. The critical and commercial success of "Devil's Rejects" led to a glut of new projects, including a gratuitous remake of "Halloween" and its sequel, as well as collaborations with the likes of Quentin Tarantino and Robert Rodriguez.
--homage to David Lynch's early short "Six Figures Getting Sick," but in context its inclusion feels about as random and forced as a bad "Family Guy" cutaway gag.
Zombie's 'Lords of Salem' conjures up limited freights
As a longtime fan of the man's work and his obvious reverence for the horror genre (he was the original host of TCM Underground), it saddens me to report that Zombie's latest offering, "The Lords of Salem," represents a rare creative misfire: a glacially paced, grossly overproduced 101-minute music video
By Landon McDonald
lmcdonald@kansan.com
The languorous plot centers on Heidi (the director's real-life bride Sheri Moon Zombie), a radio DJ and recovering drug addict from Salem, Mass. who becomes the unwitting target of an ancient coven of witches after playing a cursed vinyl record on her late night call-in show. Soon her apartment is overrun by gruesome new tenants, including a trio of cackling crones, a shadowy Yeti-type creature and, most ridiculous of all, a solemn, stump-like monster baby who communes with Heidi via two floppy umbilical cords.
Another problem with "The Lords of Salem" is its star. Sheri Moon Zombie is an attractive character actress (she spends most of the film in various states of undress) who demonstrated unexpected dramatic chops as the Squeaky Fromme-esque Baby in "The Devil's Rejects" and later as the tragic mother of Michael Myers in 2007's "Halloween." Yet she struggles to convincingly portray the comparatively normal Heidi, whose apartment's groovy décor (including an impressive wall-size still from Georges Mélies' "A Trip to the Moon") suggests a rich interior life the script never finds the words to properly convey. As a rule, it's never a good idea to let your film's set design out-act your leading lady.
Aside from some memorably depraved visuals in the third act - ahem, dildo-stroking demon priests - the only reason to see "The Lords of Salem" is to witness the gloriously over-the-top performances of its titular witches, especially the otherworldly Meg Foster ("They Live") as the ageless, sexless Grand High Witch and Kansas City native Dee Wallace (best known as the mom from "E.T.)" as an exceptionally bubbly bride of Satan. The rest is merely a gilded showcase for the banality of evil.
Zombie, perhaps mindful of his material's shortcomings, frantically references everything from Mario Bava's "Black Sunday" and Benjamin Christensen's "Häxan: Witchcraft Through the Ages" to Roman Polanski's apartment trilogy ("Repulsion," "Rosemary's Baby") and "The Tenant") while failing to replicate even an ounce of what made those films so engrossing and terrifying in the first place. Yes, the scene where the painting in Heidi's bathroom starts vomiting blood is a nifty
masqueading as a serious stab at slow-burn suspense. Despite all his gifts, Zombie doesn't have a subtle bone in his body, and "The Lords of Salem" tries so hard to seem artful and restrained that it eventually just becomes tiresome.

Celebrities flaunt pregnancy
CALLAN REILLY
creilly@kansan.com
With celebrities announcing their pregnancies left and right these days, it seems as if having a baby bump is the hottest accessory. That, or there must be something in the water in Hollywood, Stars such as Kim Kardashian, Fergie, Halle Berry and Penelope Cruz have all refused to let fashion slide as their pregnancies proceed.
The bump trend is even popular overseas. Kate Middleton, European supermodel Eva Herzigova and heiress Peaches Geldof were all on Vanity Fair's list of Top-10 Best-Dressed Fairn pregnant Ladies. Who ever thought that a large belly could be so stylish?
The mothers-to-be seem to have one thing in common (besides being pregnant). Each of the famous beauties is taking maternity fashion to a whole new level. The gals are dressing to impress, always showing their pregnancy rather than hiding it. What youd think would be time for oversized tops and sweats has instead now turned into a time for form-fitting garments. Dresses seem to be the go-to garment. Whether it's mini or maxi length, pregnant women in the lime light are making sure their bump is the main feature.
The ladies aren't even letting their shoe game slide. Being that one of the biggest complaints from pregnant women is foot pain, you'd think that sky-high pumps would be the last shoe choice for a woman expecting. That doesn't stop Kardashian from stomping around in her Louboutins, or Fergie from wearing neon heels from her very own shoe line. Hold for applause.
Of course, the best thing about maternity fashion is the glow
that comes with it. Does anyone remember Amber Rose at the Grammy's earlier this year? Wiz Khalifa's fiancée was not just glowing, but rather radiating in a formfitting donna Karan gown. Rose was about to pop at the event, and gave birth to her and Khalifa's son just days later.
There couldn't possibly be anything more beautiful than a woman embracing her pregnancy through high fashion. What used to seem to be nine months of torture now doesn't seem to be too bad (with the help of good styling). Women everywhere should take after this year's expecting celebrity mothers and their fashion sense. After all, you are dressing for two.

Dwayne Johnson, better known as The Rock, tweeted this photo Tuesday after his successful surgery to mend hernial tears.
The Rock's surgery successful
MCCLATCHY TRIBUNE
Dwayne Johnson had an emergency operation for three hernial tears he suffered while wrestling John Cena during WrestleMania earlier this month.
The actor-wrestler, better known as "The Rock," underwent surgery Monday, which is why he missed the Los Angeles premiere for his latest flick, "Pain & Gain." E! News reported. The movie costars Mark Wahlberg and opens Friday.
But the 40-year-old is doing fine now, saying that the surgery was successful.
"Surgery a success! Dr repaired 3 hernial tears (fun pain). Superman is on the mend.. #WeFallWeRise," Johnson tweeted Tuesday with a
photo of himself in a hospital bed, flexing in a Superman T-shirt.
His publicist Alan Nierob told the Associated Press that he is now recovering at home.
Johnson, 40, wrestled with Cena on April 7 at Wrestlemania 29 to defend his championship title, but he lost the match, and his midselection suffered an even greater loss.
"In the middle of last night's Wrestlemania match I tore my abdomen & abductor muscles off the bone. Just part of the job," he wrote April 8, adding,
"But as we know. It's all about #JustBringIt. WWE Universe,
THANK YOU for all the love & well wishes. Means everything to me. #LeaveAllInTheRing."
On Sunday, Johnson announced
that he'd be having the surgery this week and tweeted that his doctor had to "push my intestines back thru the tear in my abdomen. Kinda romantic."
The actor plays a workout-obsessed body builder in the upcoming film, and "Pain & Gain" director Michael Bay gave his apologies for the Rock's absence on the red carpet Monday.
"Dwayne's hit tonight," Bay said "He was pushing it too hard. (He) needs to grow up and stop wrestling 300-pound men."
It doesn't seem as if Johnson is shy away from the hulk-like roles any time soon. He has already been cast in the titular role of Brett Ratner's "Hercules: The Thracian Wars."

Operation Wildlife keeps critters safe
CALEB SISK

The State of Kansas boasts a plethora of native wildlife, which is as diverse as any other state in the country. However, unlike domesticated pets, when a wild animal is injured or orphaned, more often than not, there is no place to take it to be rehabilitated. Despite this oversight, there is an organization called "Operation Wildlife", based out of Linwood, Kan., that is helping to remedy this issue.
"Our organization covers nine Kansas counties or 4,500 sq. miles." said Diane Johnson, Executive Director of Operation Wildlife. The facility houses anywhere from 75 to 100 animals at a time and
operates purely through donations and volunteers. The facilities are staffed around the clock in order to administer the needed care to the "patients."
Outside of simply taking in and rehabilitating animals, the facility also houses a number of "Public Education Birds." These animals are birds of prey that have been deemed unfit for survival in the wild and are now used for educational purposes. After Kansas Wildlife and Parks has approved the birds, Operation Wildlife uses them to provide wildlife education to the public while asking only for donations in return.
The fact that the organization is run by volunteers offers a unique opportunity to students here at
the University. Students studying Environmental Studies or Biology can apply to an internship program offered by the organization, which will give them not only experience in the field but an independent study credit with the University. "This opportunity allowed me to learn more about local wildlife that I would otherwise not have known since I'm from the city," said Laura Florick, a student volunteer.
Those who don't necessarily want to be directly involved are still open to come in and visit the staff or bring in any animals they may come across that need assistance. Although it is a little off the beaten path, it is well worth the trip for the wealth of wildlife housed there that one would be hard-pressed to
come across while driving around town. Their facilities house everything from common squirrels and rabbits to peregrine falcons and even a bald eagle.
"This experience has not only educated me on biodiversity and how to deal with wildlife, it has also given me a greater respect for life in general," Florick said.
Students who are interested in getting involved, visiting the facility, or simply donating to the cause are welcome to visit www. owl-online.org or contact them at (785)-542-3625.

Increase in opiate abuse trends in parts of Kansas and Missouri
Opiate addiction among 18-to 25-year-olds is a growing problem spreading throughout southwest Missouri and northeast Kansas.
TREVOR OTTERSTEIN
editor@kansan.com
Opiates include prescription painkillers like morphine, OxyContin, hydrocodone, and Codeine. Illegal opiates like heroin are also abused.
People of all ages are affected by opiate abuse, but college students are in an environment where drugs are easily accessible, so there is an increased risk. A report by the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) shows the rates of abuse and addiction for 18-25 year olds. The rates of abuse range from 10 to 12 percent, which is an increase from past reports and puts opiate abuse second only to marijuana in the U.S. The recent spike in opiate abuse is harmful to experimenting students as prescription drugs become less accessible and users turn to heroin as a cheaper alternative.
Mission Missouri, located in Scott County, Mo., works with rehabilitation centers to develop preventative strategies for stopping observable drug trends. Jane Piefferkorn, the director of the organization, said heroin use has increased during the past eight
years in the St. Louis area.
Statistics for Mission Missouri show an average of four out of five incoming patients dealing with opiate abuse. The number of opiate-related deaths in Scott County has increased from three to 14 in about five years.
"In 2007, the percentage of opiate abusers coming in was around 5 percent," Pfefferkorn said. "By the end of 2011, those rates had increased to 60 percent."
Johnson County Deputy Tom Erickson had similar statistics. Erickson said the problem with opiates was almost non-existent in Johnson County, Kan., before 2007, and since then, there have been more than 60 overdoses and 14 deaths from prescription and illicit opiate use.
The issue both counties face is users turning to heroin because it's cheaper and more convenient. When users can't afford or get access to enough prescriptions, they turn to an illicit drug with no idea of the drug's dosage.
"What we're finding is that it's mostly young, active, intelligent students who end up involved in these overdose cases," Erickson said. "When the kids turn to heroin, they could be dealt a product with anything from zero percent potency, all the way to 100 percent potency."
Thomas Prisinzano is a professor and chair in the Department of Medicinal Chemistry at the KU School of Pharmacy. His field of study deals with the opium poppy and deriving opiates that can be used to treat addiction to other drugs, such as methamphetamine. Prisinzano found the poppy to have a non-addictive effect on subjects. Through his research, he explains how common opiates, such as morphine and OxyContin, lack certain health benefits because of their high potential for addiction.
Prisinzano conducted a study of the salvia divinorum plant, a highly potent, hallucinogenic opiate outlawed in Kansas.
Prisinzano said that the benefits of common prescription opiates are limited by dependency and addiction users get from the drug. Despite this, opiates such as OxyContin, morphine and hydrocodone are still the most prescribed drugs of their class.
Deputy Erickson makes it clear that the problem is not limited to any one demographic, but he said the rates of overdoses by high school to college-aged users are among the highest. These statistics show abuse with opiates is becoming more of an issue in this part of Kansas.

KATIE KUTSKO/KANSAN
This chart from the NIDA survey shows the national average monthly usage history for 18- to 25-year-olds over a period of 8 years. Opiates are higher than marijuana in this example, and this only measures to 2010. While there is an increased regional problem, there continue to be problems on the national scale as well, making opiate abuse one of the largest drug issues Americans face.

Class gains cultural experience at D.C. conference

A group of University students had the chance to gain in-depth knowledge about Mexico and experience what it is like to be a Mexican diplomat through one of their classes this semester.
The University's Center of Latin American & Caribbean Studies offers a Model Organization of American States (MOAS) class, which is open to students from any major or background and engages them in issues related to the Americas. The students have the chance to play the role of the political officials and diplomats of the Member States of the MOAS in order to debate current matters affecting the hemisphere.
Through representing the views of a country other than their own, students have the chance to familiarize themselves with a global perspective that varies from their home country.
"Different countries look at the
world in different ways," said Jorge Soberón, the instructor for the class. "It is a rich experience for the students to learn to see the world from someone else's eyes."
In order to familiarize themselves with the wide range of topics they would be discussing, the students learned about the history, laws, economics and politics of Mexico, which is the country that they represented at the MOAS conference in Washington D.C. The conference was attended by students from universities from Latin America, the United States and Canada.
"South of the border, the concerns and needs are very different from what they are here," Joey Hentzler, a sophomore majoring in political science from Topeka in the class, said. It becomes a challenge for the students to be able to understand the complexities of the issues and the significance they have from the Mexican perspective.
"You have to put yourself in

the diplomat's shoes in order to understand where they're coming from, what their goals are and why they want to achieve them," Hentzler said.
The exercises that the students have participated in during the semester have allowed them to think about the world in a broader sense, and have led to their appreciation for more global cooperation among different countries, said Hentzler.
The challenge for some is changing your mindset; it's something you're not used to," said Garrett Wolfe, a junior majoring in international studies from Meridian, Idaho, in the class. "You learn what it means to be an American in the sense of the hemisphere. We're all of the hemisphere; we're all of the Americas."

COMMENTARY Raising the bar for coach Weis
By Ben Ashworth
bashworth@kansan.com
kansan.com
Let's put it this way: The Jayhawks won one game against a team whose mascot was the Jackrabbits. They won as many Big 12 games as Missouri has Final Four appearances. They allowed 56 points against Kansas State, and the number was only that low because the Wildcats stymied their offense early in the fourth quarter. Bill Synder could have entered the game himself and at least gotten a first down before his body crumbled.
Let's hope Charlie Weis enjoyed his first year coaching Kansas football, where as long he didn't pull a Mike Rice or a Bobby Petrino, his first season would be considered a success. Because that passive fan attitude is as good as gone.
Even so, the love for Weis has been almost unconditional.
Every time he is introduced as he is watching a game at Allen Fieldhouse, the crowd erupts in applause. When confronted about his record Kansas fans are quick to defend him.
"Look at what Turner Gill left him with. Wait until he recruits his own talent."
"We could have won against TCU, Northern Illinois, Oklahoma State, Texas, and Texas Tech last year."
For the most part, these statements are true. Gill left the program in bad shape. He didn't ever appear to truly connect with the players and struggled with recruiting. And it is accurate to say that Kansas was competitive in all five of those games against superior opponents.
However, this acceptance of mediocrity ends now.
If Weis fails to drastically improve upon last year's record, the same people who are currently defending him will be the ones demanding his firing papers. That is just the way collegiate athletics works. The fans think they are being generous by giving a coach one year of leeway before releasing the hounds a year later.
No one is asking Weis to turn the team into a Big 12 contender overnight. However, simply being competitive in about half of the games will no longer be sufficient. And Weis certainly needs to avoid those games that are not competitive. Getting blown out again by the likes of Oklahoma and West Virginia will cause Weis to meet the same fate as most of the pour souls on Donald Trump's "The Apprentice"
Weis has tools at his disposal to make improvement happen. Jake Heaps, unlike Dayne Crist before him, appears to value the idea of the completed forward pass. Justin McCay gives the team a dynamic receiver who can actually create separation in the passing game. The running game, the strength of last year's team, should continue to be an asset.
His recruiting class is nothing to sneeze at either. Weis, realizing he needs to win now, brought in a class of solid junior college players, led by defensive tackle Marquel Combs. No longer can you say that he is saddled with Gill's feeble attempts to build a football team. This is clearly Weis' team now.
The low expectations ended with the conclusion of last season.
We will see if Weis and his players can rise to the occasion.

Jayhawks hit their way to a 7-1 victory against the Baker Wildcats
TREVOR GRAFF
tgraff@kansan.com
The three-run shot, DeLeon's team-leading sixth of the season, carried high into the trees beyond the left field wall.
Kansas senior first baseman Alex DeLeon's three-run home run in the bottom of the fourth jump started the Jayhawks' 7-1 victory over the Baker Wildcats in Hoglund Ballpark last night.
"I wasn't looking for any one pitch," DeLeon said. "I was just looking for something up in the zone that I could get into the outfield. I ended up getting a slider that was up and I put a good swing on it."
DeLeon's shot might be the longest hit in Hoglund Ballpark this season.
The scoring quickly turned in favor of the jayhawks, who scored seven unanswered, beginning
"Well, the ball was still going up when it hit the trees," senior shortstop Kevin Kuntz said. "I just put my head down when he hit, because it probably one-hopped Watson over there. I think it was a curveball too. He did a good job of just staying back and using his hands."
The Wildcats opened the game's scoring with a run scored off of a sharply hit single to left field from senior third baseman Bryan Kindle.
Senior shortstop Kevin Kuntz scored Tharp on an RBI single before DeLeon's three-run homer broke the game open in the fourth inning. The Jayhawks rounded out their scoring night on a wild pitch that allowed freshman first baseman Marcus Wheeler to score.
The Jayhawks struggled with the lower velocities thrown by Baker pitchers.
"Obviously the velocity wasn't what we're used to playing in our league," coach Ritch Price said. "There were so many off-speed pitches. I was just disappointed
with an RBI single from junior centerfielder Tucker Tharp and a sacrifice fly from sophomore second baseman Justin Protocio.
in the number of strikeouts. We should've had a two strike approach every time we stepped in the box."
Kansas hitters struck out nine times but reached base via the walk eight times and were hit by pitches in four at-bats on the night.
Kansas senior right-handed pitcher Tanner Poppe continued to battle tightness in his throwing shoulder. In two innings pitched, Poppe recorded three hits and three strikeouts giving up one run on 37 pitches.
"I was disappointed in his effort," Price said. "He's a little sore and he's a really important guy to us. Obviously we've had two disappointing starts from him over the last couple of weeks. We've got two huge games against Wichita State coming up that are just as important as the weekends."
Coach Price said after the game that the Sunday spot in the rotation will remain in flux entering the weekend. He did say, however, that junior right-handed pitcher Frank Duncan could reenter the rotation depending on his role as a reliever over the weekend.
The Jayhawks start another critical weekend Big 12 series against the West Virginia Mountaineers Friday at 5:30 p.m. in Beckley, W.Va.

TRACK AND FIELD
Senior jumpers lead team to victory
COLIN WRIGHT cwright@kansan.com
The Kansas women's track and field squad has been breaking records and winning awards both during the indoor and outdoor season. Senior horizontal jumpers Andrea Geubelle and Francine Simpson have helped the Jayhawks
get where they are today.

long jump. Simpson has the farthest jump in school history in the long jump, with a leap of 21"10.75" last year at the Big 12 outdoor championship.
"I feel great so far," said Simpson. "I've been training hard, I'm happy with how things are going right now. My main focus for the outdoor season is to stay healthy."
They both have aspirations of becoming professional track and field athletes when their careers at the University come to an end after this season.
The teammates share a unique relationship by both refusing to lose and cheering each other on when they face each other in the long jump. They are often roommates when they travel to meets as well, always spending time with one another.
"No matter what, she's my teammate," said Geubelle. "She's become like a sister to me. To see her win, I'm excited about that, but I'm not happy that I just lost."
For Simpson, the feeling is mutual. "I love Andrea. She's a great person, I love working with her, and I'm happy that I'm here."
The women's team, which has been ranked in the top-five in the nation by the U. S. Track & Field and Cross Country Coaches Association (USTFCCCA) for all of the indoor and outdoor seasons, and has received NCAA runner-up finishes at the 2012 and 2013 indoor championships. They also finished fourth at the 2012 outdoor
NCAA championship.
"It puts a target on our backs," said Geubelle. "There's a much higher standard held at practice now. It's just, were working hard every day to hopefully achieve No. 1 because it doesn't come all the time."
To show how dominant they are, the two best long jumps in the NCAA in the 2013 indoor season belonged to Geubelle and Simpson. They placed first and third respectively at the NCAA indoor championships to earn 16 points for the Jayhawks and have a goal to make it a one-two finish at the NCAA outdoors next month.
The ultimate goal for the seniors in their remaining time is to claim the NCAA team outdoor championship, and they are outspoken about that dream becoming a reality.
"You kind of feel it at practice," said Gebelle. "Everybody is just working really hard to hopefully stand up to that expectation. We have everything that we need to win it."
The Big 12 outdoor championships are May 3-5 in Waco, Texas, on the Baylor University campus. The NCAA outdoor championships will take place at the University of Oregon's campus in Eugene, Ore., on June 5-8.

Would I be wrong to say that the NFL is truly something amazing? I mean there really is nothing like spending a Sunday with friends, having a couple of beers and watching the testosterone levels of grown men soar through the roof. Nothing about the NFL seems to aggravate us, even the Super Bowl's blackouts. Well, except for one thing. One thing does aggravate me: the amount of publicity the NFL receives.
The NFL Draft starts tonight, and I was unfortunate enough to be reminded about it because of all the coverage media outlets like ESPN have being give it. At times, we forget that there are more important things that should be covered in the sports world — like the NBA playoffs, or how the city of Boston is still recovering from the bombings.
By Ryan Levine
rlevine@kansan.com
As an example of how much the NFL is publicized, let's take a look at the Super
Bowl. Year after year, sports fans, average people, everyone gathers around the television for nearly five hours to sit on the couch and watch something so overhyped that it makes nearly all other news go unnoticed.
People often state that the Super Bowl is the biggest game in all of sports, as it is one of the most watched television events all year. Yet, it is because we as a society allow it to be. We make sure that
everyone watches it, regardless of their interest level, and we practically make it a national holiday.
Here's another example regarding: the NDraft. Every year, ESPN's SportsCenter does a segment called "Gruden's QB Camp," where analyst Jon Gruden meets with the top quarterbacks of that year's draft and breaks down film with them. However, this year was a little different. Gruden brought in players like Manti Teo, a defensive player, because apparently there were not enough "top quarterbacks" in this year's draft.
Is that what it really game down to, bringing in players that do not even fit the title of the segment to keep the hype and anticipation of the draft? I guess that is what happens when you build a certain standard and expectation for your audience. Regardless of what kind of players appear on the segment, there is so much information thrown at the average sports
KU
fan through all of the in-depth analysis, they cannot even comprehend what they are listening to.
I understand I might just be saying all of this because I am from Los Angeles, so I did not grow up with a professional football team in my city. Nonetheless, I have never understood why not just the NFL but football in general receives so much publicity and attention. It is just another sport. Maybe I will understand when the NFL comes to Los Angeles, if it ever does.

The Kansas softball team defeated UMRC 11-0 in the run-shortened first game of Wednesdays doubleheader.
Kansas' offense was hot from the start of the game as the Jayhawks scored two runs in the first, eight in the second and one in the third. Freshman utility player Alex Hugo led the way with a three-run homerun and three RBIs on the game. Senior outfielder Maggie Hull went 3-4 with two RBIs and sophomore catcher Maddie Stein went 2-3 with two RBIs. The other Kansas players with RBIs were shortstop Chaley Brickey, first baseman Mariah Montgomery, pinch hitter Kylee Kennedy and second baseman Ashley Newman.
Hugo and Hull also reached University milestones during this game, with Hugo breaking the Kansas freshman homerun record with 12 and Hull tying the Jayhawkcareer RBI record with 135. The current record holder for careerRBIs at Kansas is Liz Kocon (2008-12).
Alicia Pille was sensational on the mound for the Jayhawks in the first game with 10 strikeouts and one hit allowed over five innings of work.
Pille says her dominant performance on Wednesday was a team effort.
"A lot of it has to do with our defense and everyone is playing really well together," Pille said. "It
also helps to know that we always have each other's backs out there.
UMKC pitcher Cinda Ramos took the brunt of the Jayhawks' offensive firepower as she gave 10 earned runs on nine hits over 2 1/3 innings of work. Katie Kelley came in relief of Rams and was able to slow the Jayhawks down by only giving up one earned run over 1 2/3 innings.
The first game of Wednesday's doubleheader was the 19th run-ruled game of the season and the first since an 11-1 victory over Furman on April 14.
The jayhawks' offense wasn't as potent in the second game of the doubleheader, but their four runs were enough to defeat UMKC for the second time on Wednesday.
Coach Smith said that Wednesday's sweep was important for the team.
"Those are two good wins. UMKC always plays us tough; they have a really good offense and a really good team. That first game, we just caught fire and didn't stop so that first game was really good for us. In the second game, I thought their pitcher did a really good job. She bounced back and held us, but we worked extremely hard and I thought Pille was the star tonight."
Pille was sensational in her second start of the evening pitching another complete game and struck out eight batters. Her performance on the mound also helped the Kansas bullpen rest up for this weekend's series against Baylor,
who's currently third in the Big 12 behind Oklahoma and Texas. Pille also entered Kansas' top-10 for most shutouts, but she says that these accomplishments aren't the most important thing to her.
"It's always really exciting to hear things like that and I try not to pay too much attention it," Pille said.
Stein and Hugo, who went 2-3 and 1-3, again led the team's offense and drove all four of the team's runs. The game was scoreless until the third inning when the Jayhawks scored three runs on RBI-doubles by Hugo and Stein. Three runs were all Pillle needed to hold the Kangaroos in check and bring Kansas its second victory of the evening.
Stein said she was impressed with how the team bounced back after losing two of three to Oklahoma State last weekend.
"I think the team bounced back great," Stein said. "This week in practice we've been talking about our struggles on offense, so going into today's game our biggest thing was making sure our offense was there. When our offense is there, we really can't be beat."
Despite two victories over UMKC, the Jayhawks are in for a battle against Baylor, who is ranked 14 in the ESPN.com/USA Softball poll.
This weekend's games are scheduled for Friday at 6 p.m., Saturday at 2 p.m. and Sunday at 12 p.m.

CLAY COURT
Tennis team poised to get past ISU in Big 12 tournament
TYLER CONOVER
tconover@kansan.com
A common cliché is that history repeats itself. With that in mind, the chance for the Kansas tennis team to repeat history has presented itself. The Jayhawks have not made it out of the first round of the Big 12 tournament in 5 years. The last time the team advanced, it came at the hands of the Iowa State Cyclones, another team that has struggled in the past.
As coincidence would have it, Kansas plays the Cyclones for the second time in a week — the first meeting was won by Kansas
— when they take the court in Norman, Okla., 10 a.m. Thursday. Kansas won its last two matches of the regular season and have only been defeated by Iowa State once in the last 37 meetings. While Kansas has history on its side, it will take significantly more effort to advance in the upcoming tournament.
The strength of the Jayhawks comes from doubles play, and if Kansas is able to get the doubles point against the Cyclones, the team won't have the pressure of playing from behind going into singles play. With help from the consistent play of the duo Maria Belen Ludueña and Paulina Los, Kansas won the doubles point in both matches last weekend and went on to earn the win with solid performances in singles play. Ludueña was also named to the Academic All-Big 12 First Team this week, joining 24 other women student-athletes from various schools in the Big 12.
Los and freshman Maria Jose Cardona helped the Jayhawks in singles play, winning against West Virginia and Iowa State.
Kansas ended the regular season by climbing two spots in the Big 12 standings to eight, and now faces a team that has not been particularly troublesome in recent history. If the Jayhawks are able to take care of business early, then the singles play should stay at the level set last weekend and help advance the Jayhawks to the second round, where they would face 1-seed Baylor on Friday.
Thursday's match against Iowa State begins at 10 a.m. at the University of Oklahoma's Headington Family Tennis Center.

The Kansas softball team will be taking on the nationally ranked Baylor Bears in a three-game series at Arrocha Ballpark in Lawrence this weekend
Kansas is coming off an impressive doubleheader sweep of UMKC on Wednesday, while Baylor split a doubleheader at home against Houston.
in fourth and both sitting behind Oklahoma and Texas.
The Jayhawks
Pitcher Alicia Pille said that the Jayhawks are ready for the challenge of facing a ranked team.
"I think the key to beating Baylor is just rallying and working together as a team."
The Jayhawks enter the weekend with a 29-13 (4-5) record, and Baylor is 35-12 (6-5). Kansas sits within striking distance in the Big 12 standings, with the Bears in third, Jayhawks
"I think the key to beating Baylor is just rallying and working together as a team," Pille said. "They are very beatable, and it should be a good weekend."
ALICIA PILLE Sophomore pitcher
These two teams faced each other in a weekend series in Waco, Texas, with Bavlor
winning two of the three games. Kansas' victory in the last game of that series was the first over the Bears since April 10,2010.
Catcher Maddie Stein said the
team needs to play their game in order to beat Baylor.
"I don't think it will take anything out of the ordinary to beat them," Stein said. "I think if we play our game, we will be absolutely fine. We just have to make sure that we're consistent at the plate, we have our solid defense that we always have and pitching that helps keep us in the game.
A series win against Baylor could propel Kansas in the Big 12 standings and give the team confidence that they can compete with anyone in the conference.
This weekend's series begins on Friday at 6 p.m., with the other two games on Saturday at 2 p.m. and Sunday at 12 p.m.

Kansas golf struggles through final tournament of the season
NKS
CHRIS HYBL chybl@kansan.com
The Kansas golf team has had a lot of repeat experiences this year. Attempting to climb out of a hole is one of them, and that's the exact situation the Jayhawks encountered Wednesday at the Big 12 Championship Tournament at Prairie Dunes Country Club in Hutchinson. After a field-worst second round score of 308, the Jayhawks carded a closing day 302, which was only enough for an eighth place finish.
CONTRIBUTED BY JEFF JACOBSON
Senior Stan Gautier golfs in the Men's Big 12 Championship in Hutchinson.
"We had a good lead after 27 holes, but from there, it just kept getting worse," coach Jamie Bermel said. "We just didn't finish the second round and just stumbled home from there."
Kansas was tied for last in the nine-team field to start the day, and junior Stan Gautier was the only one carrying the Jayhawks. Gautier had the field's fifth best final-day score, and it was enough to keep the Jayhawks from falling into a last-place tie with Iowa State.
Gilbert finish the tournament tied for tenth individually, while
"He was fairly consistent today and nothing really fancy," Bermel said. "But he did a lot of things well today."
Not leading for the Jayhawks, unusually, was senior Chris Gilbert. After shooting the best opening round in the field and sitting at a T-3 individual position the second day, Gilbert blew up on the way to the clubhouse. Gilbert double-boyed his 15th hole and triple-boyed his 17th hole to finish five-over in four holes. Gilbert, however, was the only Jayhawk to shoot over-par in single-digit numbers.
"He struggled today for the most part. He was trying to grind it out to get up and down and just finish," Bermel said. "But he just made a couple bad swings coming down, and he paid the price."
Texas' Brandon Stone won the tournament with an even-par 210. Texas also won the tournament with a 19-over-par team scorecard, well ahead of Kansas' 59-over-par finish.
"Going in, we were probably the eighth seed out of nine," Bermel said. "We had just got a win, and we were playing with a lot of confidence, so I had thought if we played well, we could get in the top-five."
The Jayhawks don't have the resume for a postseason, and won't be booking a trip to any of the NCAA regional sites. The season is over for the Jayhawks, however, Gilbert played well enough through the season to qualify as an individual for the NCAA Regional. Gilbert will be placed into competition at one of six regional sites. Regional play will be May 16-18.
Bermel's inaugural year as Kansas golf head coach has come to a close. Bermel took over a badly bleeding program to start the year, and he does have more progress to show for than a one-place improvement from the team's last-place finish at the Big 12 tournament last year. The team's win April 14 at the Hawkeye Invitational was the season's biggest highlight; It was the team's first win since 2010.
"We won the tournament in Iowa and beat a pretty good field," Bermel said. "We were more consistent in the spring than we were in the fall, and I thought the guys played with a little more heart in the spring — a little more just started to believe in themselves a little more."

PITCHING
Thomas Taylor's 2.47 ERA and 4-0 record will face off with Mountaineer's starter Harrison Musgrave in a game to foreshadow the weekend. Sophomore left-handed pitcher Wes Benjamin holds down the Saturday start, while the Sunday spot is still in question. Kansas junior closer Jordan Piche" was named to the National Collegiate Baseball Writers' Association Stopper of the Year watchlist for his NCAA leading 8 saves and 4.7 ERA.
HITTING
The Jayhawks are looking to be successful as usual on the road in West Virginia. The Jayhawk lineup continues to field two players above the .300 mark while batting .279 as a team. Sophomore left fielder Michael Suiter continues to lead the Jayhawks in batting average while Senior first baseman Alex DeLeon leads the team with five home runs after a three-run shot to left field against the Baker Wildcats.
FIELDING
The Jayhawks continued to take care of business in the field against the Baker Wildcats. The Jayhawks substituted several young players in the late stages of the game. The Jayhawks' team fielding percentage is hovering just above 97 percent for the season. The outfield and middle infield continue to play solid defense long into the stretch of the conference season.

PITCHING
West Virginia's rotation features a solid opening night starter in sophomore left-handed pitcher Harrison Musgrave. The lefty enters the weekend series with a 6-1 record and 2.70 ERA. By striking out 46 batters and walking only 21 in 63 1/3 innings on the season, Musgrave has elevated himself as one of the best pitchers in the Big 12 conference early in his career.
HITTING
The Mountaineers are hanging steadily in the middle of the Big 12 pack with their 6-6 record this season. Their lineup features a .284 team batting average and three players touting averages higher than .300. Junior third baseman Ryan Tuntail leads the team at the plate with a .366 average, 49 hits and 23 RBIs. Look for the Mountaineers to be fairly aggressive on the basepaths with 51 stolen bases recorded on the season.
FIELDING
The Mountaineers have committed 54 errors on the season good for a .964 fielding percentage. Junior first baseman Ryan McBroom and junior third baseman Ryan Tuntland have committed a team high seven errors on the year. The Mountaineers are generally a solid fielding club that relies on grinding out runs offensively and pitching to contact on defense.

Nat's all-star still slumping
ASSOCIATED PRESS
Washington Nationals second baseman Danny Espinosa, left, can't hang onto the ball as St. Louis Cardinals' Matt Carpenter (13) is safe at second with a double during Wednesday's game.
10 13
ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON (AP) — The St. Louis Cardinals' first batter, Matt Carpenter, got it started against Stephen Strasburg by stretching a single into a double when Bryce Harper's throw to second base was bobbled.
One out later, Matt Holliday singled. Carlos Beltran walked. Yadier Molina delivered a two-run single. And then a throwing error on Daniel Descalso's grounder padded the score.
Just like that, 23 pitches in, the Cardinals built a three-run lead against Strasburg's Washington Nationals. And that was enough. On the strength of that half-inning, the Cardinals beat the Nationals 4-2 Wednesday to complete a sweep and give Washington's All-Star the only four-start losing streak of his young career.
Needing to be nearly perfect given Washington's lack of offence, Strasburg (1-4) improved considerably after that 12-minute first inning. Getting ahead in the count, he threw 110 pitches over seven innings, giving up no other runs and a total of five hits, along with seven strikeouts.
"I was trying to throw the perfect pitch. I tell myself going into the game, 'Don't do that.' And I go out there and I do it," said Strasburg, who hasn't won since opening day against Miami. "So I was really happy I was able to make the adjustment, get the feeling back. My velocity came back up, I was throwing a lot more strikes, and they weren't taking as good swings."
That initial inning, though, was precisely the sort of "scratch and claw" offense that Cardinals manager Mike Matheny spoke about before the game.
"People hate our 'small ball' theory," Matheny said, "but when we're not banging balls into the stands every single night, we've got to do other things, whether people like it or not."
His club used that style to add
an insurance run in the eighth off Drew Storen — who blew a ninth-ning lead against St. Louis in Game 5 in October — on Holliday's chopped single that didn't leave the infield.
"The thing that the Cardinals did is, they've got their boppers in the middle, but then they've got guys like Descalso and (Shane) Robinson and Kozma. Strasburg said. "They grind you out. They're not going to give in. They're not just going to strike out."
Trying to generate something for Washington's slumbering offense, Ian Desmond bunted for a base hit with one out in the second, then stole second and advanced to third on a flyout to the warning track. But rookie third baseman Anthony Rendon struck out to end the inning.
Strasburg actually was the one who got Washington going at the plate, grounding a single up the middle to lead off the sixth. Denard Span followed with a single, and Jayson Werth's groundout moved the runners up for Harper.
He grounded out to second, but at least that got Strasburg home to make it 3-1.
In the seventh, a pair of singles put runners at the corners with one out, but Kelly got out of that jam when pinch-hitter Lombardozi struck out and Jhonatan Solano, taking off from first on a hit-and-run, was thrown out at second by catcher Molina.
"Somebody said last night it feels like we're 0-20. But it's not that bad. We're only one game under .500, and it's April. We'll be all right," Werth said. "What we're going through: It's the first time this team has dealt with expectations, and there's something to be said about that. But we'll adjust."
Werth's fourth homer, off Trevor Rosenthal in the eighth, gave Washington its second run. But that was too little to stop the Nationals from dropping below .500 for the first time since finishing the 2011 season 80-81.

Reds beat Cubs, take eight of 10 in an early homestand
ASSOCIATED PRESS
CINCINNATI — Todd Frazier gave Mat Latos all the run support he needed, and Latos gave the Cincinnati Reds exactly what they needed to finish off a 10-game homestand in style.
Latos retired the first 10 batters and 15 of the first 16 he faced and mostly spared an overworked bullpen, and Frazier hit a long home run and the Reds beat the Chicago Cubs 1-0 Wednesday.
Latos (1-0), the victim of two blown saves among his first four
With one out in the sixth inning of a scoreless tie, Frazier blasted a 2-1 pitch from Jeff Samardzija 480 feet to straightaway center field to increase his team-leading home run total to six.
"This is what we wanted so bad," Reds manager Baker said. "This sets us straight for a couple of days."
It turned out not to be a problem.
"In the bullpen, I had a really good slider and changeup," said Latos, who's strung together 11 consecutive scoreless innings. "I don't know what the hell happened. It's tough. Everybody in the big leagues can hit the fastball. I had to focus on hitting spots, keeping the ball down and away and getting them to hit it on the ground."
Jonathan Broxton replaced Latos with two runners on base and nobody out in the eighth. Both runners moved up on Cody Ransom's sacrifice bunt, but pinch-hitter Alfonso Soriano struck out and shortstop Zack Cozart went deep behind second base to flag down David Jesus's
grounder and throw him out to end the inning.
"I was going to throw it regardless, because there were two outs." Cozart said. "I saw out of the corner of my eye that he wasn't too close to the bag. I've been struggling at the plate lately, so to make a play like that makes you feel pretty good."
The Reds wrapped up the home stand, one of two of 10 games on their schedule this season, with eight wins despite playing two games that lasted 13 innings, another that went 10, a third that was suspended almost 19 hours from one night to the next day by rain, and Wednesday's game, the start of which was delayed 89 minutes by rain. They won eight games on a homestand of 10 or fewer games for just the sixth time in franchise history and the second in two years.

Detroit Tigers' Victor Martinez, right, hits a one-run double against the Kansas City Royals in the third inning of the game in Detroit, Wednesday, April 24.
DETROIT — Jose Valverde returned to Detroit with a save and Victor Martinez drove in a pair of runs to help the Tigers beat the Kansas City Royals 7-5 Wednesday night.
Royals drop first of road series in Detroit
ASSOCIATED PRESS
Max Scherzer (2-0) got the win, allowing five runs in five innings, with three Tigers relievers finishing the game. Valverde, called up earlier in the day, returned to the Tigers with a perfect ninth inning. Valverde lost the closing role during the postseason and wasn't offered a contract, but signed a minor-league deal earlier this month and returned to Detroit after a short minor-league stint.
Wade Davis (2-1) gave up seven runs — but only three earned — in 3 2-3 innings. Davis allowed eight hits and four walks while only getting 11 outs.
The Tigers took the lead on Omar Infante's RBI single in the second, but Kansas City responded with four runs in the third. Salvador Perez and Chris Getz started the inning with singles,
and Alex Gordon tied the game with a double. Alcides Escobar and Billy Butler made it 3-1 with RBI singles, giving the Royals five straight hits, and Eric Hosmer drove in the fourth run with a long sacrifice fly.
The Tigers added two more in their half of the third on Martinez's RBI double and Jhonny Peralta's run-scoring single. Martinez tried to score from second on Peralta's double, and was beaten so badly by Jeff Francoeur's throw from right that he just veered off toward the dugout and was called out for leaving the basepath.
Detroit took control in the fourth when Infante scored on a Mike Moustakas error and Miguel Cabrera followed with a tie-breaking sacrifice fly. Martinez added an RBI single, chasing Davis, but Luis Mendoza walked the next two batters to force in a seventh run.
The Royals loaded the bases with no one out in the fifth, but only scored once, and couldn't get anything after putting two runners on in the seventh.

OKC Thunder too much for Rockets
ASSOCIATED PRESS
OKLAHOMA CITY — Russell Westbrook relishes the moments when an opponent challenges him and his Oklahoma City Thunder teammates and it becomes time to respond.
Rookie Patrick Beverley showed a willingness to go toe-to-toe with the Thunder's All-Star point guard, and the Houston Rockets didn't back down despite a 15-point deficit in the fourth quarter.
Then it was up to Westbrook and the Thunder to come up with an answer.
Westbrook and Kevin Durant each scored 29 points, and Oklahoma City recovered after squandering its big lead to beat Houston 105-102 on Wednesday
night and take a 2-0 series lead.
"It's fun. During this time of the year, as a team we've got one goal and we can't let nobody get in the way," Westbrook said. "That's how I feel and that's how I want my team to respond as well."
Durant hit the go- ahead 3-pointer with 2:28 to play after the Rockets had turned a 15-point deficit into a four-point lead, and the Thunder did not relinquish the lead. Durant missed a free throw with 1 second left, but Houston was out of timeouts and Carlos Delfino couldn't connect on a desperation shot at the final buzzer.
"It's frustrating and it hurts really bad right now," said Chandler Parsons, who scored 17 points for Houston. "But you've got to take some positive out of it. It's a long

series."
The Thunder's big lead melted away with nine straight empty possessions as the Rockets mixed in a zone defense. James Harden spearheaded a 21-2 Houston comeback by getting into the lane to create his own opportunities, and he also kicked the ball out to set up two 3-pointers by Delfino. His second 3, from the right wing, provided a 95-91 lead with 3:27 to go.
But the Rockets couldn't keep it up.
Oklahoma City came back to tie it before Harden knitted to the basket for a layup to give Houston its last lead at 97-95 with 2:42 to play. Durant answered right away
with a deep 3 from the left wing at the opposite end, and the Thunder came up with back-to-back stops before Thabo Sefolosha's 3 provided a little breathing room at 101-97.
Serge Ibaka added a long jumper to make it 103-98 after Durant was forced to give up the ball. Durant and Kevin Martin, both in the top 5 in the league in free-throw percentage, both went 1 for 2 at the foul line in the final 12 seconds to give the Rockets one last chance.
"We all stuck together," Westbrook said. "They made a run when we weren't able to make shots, but I thought everybody had a big role toward the end of the game and we came up with the win."

Pitching matchups key in road trip
tgraff@kansan.com
TREVOR GRAFF
The Jayhawks are headed to West Virginia for the first time in program history in the midst of a hotly contested Big 12 conference race.
Kansas' 9-6 record lands them alone in second place with a solitary half-game deficit separating the Jayhaws from the first place Oklahoma Sooners. Without much knowledge of West Virginia, the Jayhawks aren't overlooking their trip to Appalachia.
"They've been doing pretty well. Sitting in the middle of the Big 12 isn't easy," senior shortstop Kevin Kuntz said. "It'll be fun and exciting to play a new Big 12 team, just like TCU. They have a few guys swinging the bats well and their pitching is tough. They did well against Texas so it should be fun to
take them on."
The Mountaineers lineup features three hitters batting higher than the .300 mark. Junior third baseman Ryan Tuntland leads the lineup with his .366 average, 49 hits and 23 RBIs. Sophomore outfielder Bobby Boyd, hitting .333 on the year, and junior outfielder Jacob Rice, hitting .331, complete the .300 plus club.
With a bit of pop in the Mountaineer lineup and a solid Friday starter, the Kansas pitching staff is focused on getting wins early in the weekend series.
"It all starts on Friday," junior closer Jordan Piche' said. "We've got the best guy out there to start with Thomas. He's had a really good year this year and the way our bats are looking and our short game as well, we should be looking pretty good. Expectations are high."
Friday's pitching matchup presents a key battle for the Jayhawks. The Mountaineers sophomore lefthanded pitcher Harrison Musgrave, currently tied for fourth in the Big 12 with six wins on the season, has lost just one game this season. His 2.70 ERA, 46 strikeouts and 21 walks have the attention of Big 12 hitters.
"Their Friday pitcher is doing really well," Pitche' said. "If we can get Friday, we'll be looking really good coming into Saturday and Sunday. Winning there would kind of set the tone for our team and build some more momentum on the weekend."
Kansas' Friday starter, senior pitcher Thomas Taylor, is currently sixth on the Big 12 strikeout list with 49 strikeouts on the season. Taylor leads the weekend rotation with his 4-0 record and 2.47 ERA.
"We just go about our business as usual," Piche' said. "We're pumped to be on the road again. A lot of guys like it and we're expecting a good outcome with this season."
Sophomore left-handed pitcher
Wes Benjamin continues to fill the Saturday spot in the rotation with a 4-4 record and 4.50 ERA. The Sunday spot in the rotation remains a question for the Jayhawks.
Coach Price said the Sunday spot in the rotation is still in question entering the weekend.
The Jayhawks' travel to West Virginia won't change the approach for a Kansas team firmly engrossed in the routine down the stretch run of their season.
The Jayhawks start the weekend series against West Virginia in Beckley, W. Va., at 5:30 p.m. Friday.

University students volunteer at Jubilee Café, get face-to-face time with Lawrence homeless community

In the early hours of a recent Tuesday, Bailey Fee, a freshman from Kansas City, Kan., arrived at the Jubilee Cafe at the First United Methodist Church with a smile and a willing spirit to spend several hours serving breakfast to the homeless.
less hits close to home. In October 2011,
her father Larry died from a heart attack while
working at the Wyandotte County Water Department
For Fee, working with the home-
Fee
"My dad was my best friend and someone I could talk to about anything." Fee said.
While Fee was close to her father, she could not say the same of her mother, who Fee said suffers from alcoholism and a gambling addiction.
"My mother and I'm relationship was never healthy." Fee said. "We would yell at each other. I felt like if I lived with her full time, things would be bad for everyone. It was never an option to move in with her."
She said she did not feel a connection to her step-mother either and described her as mentally and emotionally abusive.
Less than a week after her father's death, Fee's stepmother told her she knew Fee wasn't going to live with her anymore. Fee said her stepmother blamed her for her father's death.
"I got in a car accident two weeks before his death and almost died," Fee said. "She said the stress of my accident was too much for my dad to handle. He was working a lot, and in her mind, he was working too much to save up for my college, so that was my fault."
"Then the funeral came, and the question everybody had was, 'What's going to happen to Bailey?'"
Fee said. "I didn't know what I was going to do."
With no other place to stay, Fee
A couple days later, Fee returned to her stepmother's house to pick up her clothes. To Fee's surprise, she discovered that her stepmother had changed the house's locks to keep her out. She had no place to go.
lived at friends' houses for the following week.
"I just don't exist in her life anymore," Fee said.
But, Fee still had another option. She had always been close to her cheerleading coach at Turner High School, Sybil Nicum. After her father's funeral, Nicum took Fee out to lunch and told her that she would always be welcome at Nicum's home.
Fee's father would have approved. She said that before her father's death he had asked Niccum to accompany Fee on a school trip to Paris.
So, after recovering the clothes that her step-mother left on the curb for trash day, Fee moved in with Niccum. Soon after, Niccum became her legal guardian with assistance from a friend who is a lawyer.
"I was lucky I didn't actually have to live on the streets and I have people to take care of me,"Fee said.
Fee lived with Niccum for the rest of high school, but Niccum insisted that Fee live on campus to experience college life. Now, Fee is a member of the Alpha Chi Omega sorority and lives in the dorms.
It was at sorority recruitment that she heard about Jubilee Café as a community service opportunity.
The cafe was founded in 1994 by Joe Alford, the cafe's former director who continues volunteering today. Jubilee Cafe was intended to give college students face-to-face time with homeless people.
"This gave students a way to sit down and talk to homeless people," Alford said. "They find that they are just like them. Everyone is one or two paychecks away from the street."
On Tuesday and Friday mornings from 5:30 a.m. to 8:30 a.m. 25 to 50 students arrive to serve food and wash dishes at the café while they get to know members of the homeless community on a more personal level than seeing them on
the street.
In the past year, the cafe has seen fewer patrons. Jessica Sheahon, a graduate student from Salina, is the volunteer coordinator for the cafe. She attributes the decline to the relocation of the Lawrence Community Shelter. Last December, the shelter moved from its location at 10th and Vermont Streets to its new location east of Kansas Highway 10.
The shelter's move was pushed by Lawrence business leaders feeling threatened by the homeless population, said Stephanie Higinbotham, current coordinator for Jubilee Cafe and next year's coordinator for Concerned, Active & Aware Students, a student group dedicated to volunteering at the homeless shelter.
"The business owners wanted to remove the homeless element from the downtown area," Higinbotham said. "They don't view them as people."
"They don't have enough food, money or people," Higinbotham said.
The Jubilee Cafe acts as a supplement to the shelter, but Sheahon said that a lack of transportation for the homeless population has caused the number of patrons drop from around 100 to close to 50.
While the new location accommodates more families and serves more meals daily, the shelter is still struggling, Higinbotham said.
For Fee, it is important to keep things in perspective while volunteering.
"A minor event can turn your life upside down," Fee said. "Whenever I look at these people, I think, 'this could have been me.'" Fee said.
Through volunteering, Fee has become friends with the people who eat at Jubilee Cafe, knowing several by name. When she missed volunteering for a couple months, one of the people she usually serves, Ed, greeted her as if she'd never missed a day when she returned.
"Whenever I see someone on the street, sympathize with them." Fee said. "Homelessness is a societal problem, and we need to handle it together."
Brown Bag Drag concludes Gaypril festivities
LGBTQA

Hallway through Friday's Brown Bag Drag, a 6-foot-tall femmic mimic in a Disney's Snow White dress raised an experiential painted eyebrow to draw a laugh from the line "He's gotta be larger than life" as she sang Footloose's "I Need a Hero."
"The fact that we can have a drag show on your campus and not give two shits what anybody thinks — I love it," said Daisy Bucket, the emcee of Friday's burlesque performance.
The event filled Woodruff Auditorium's 300 seats to capacity and left it at standing room only. Lipsyncing and renditions of songs from "Hairspray," Beyoncé, Cyn迪 Lauper and John Lennon marked the last day of Gaypri, a
month-long celebration of LGBT, sexual and gender diversity. Throughout four weeks of April, Queers and Allies coordinated panels about intersexuality and religion, showed plays and films, brought in guest speakers and coordinated social events including Pride Night at Wilde's Chateau 24 in outreach and activism efforts.
The popularity of a drag show — more commonly seen in clubs and bars — performed in the heart of a campus in Kansas at noon on a Friday was no surprise to Detmer or Queers and Allies president Ailee Cassel. Cassel, a junior from Milwaukee, Wisconsin, thinks the
"There's way too much gay pride at KU to only fill up a week," said Michael Detmer, the graduate student advisor for Queers and Allies and the LGBT Resource Center coordinator.
As head of the Gender Neutral Restroom Task Force, Detmer has already seen success in bringing greater awareness of LGBT issues to campus. By purchasing unisex restroom signs with both male and female figures, the student coalition of more than 40 members has already changed the designation of two single-person bathrooms in Wescoe this past fall and hopes to designate two more by the fall semester.
"We had a really decent turnout at all of our events," Cassel said.
"That's something we've struggled with in the past. We could always draw people to Brown Bag Drag, but we couldn't always draw people to a trans talk event."
increasingly pro-gay political climate has helped encourage more people to speak out in support of gay rights.
Queers and Allies meets Thursday nights at 7 p.m. in the Sabatini Multicultural Resource Center classroom. Detmer urges LGBT allies to speak up if they overhear an offensive comment at the grocery store, to hang the Human Rights Campaign sticker up in their offices or on the bumper of their cars and to attend events to learn more about LGBT issues.
Daisy Bucket finished the drag show with Gloria Gaynor's "I Am What I Am," tearing off her curly blonde wig and bowing to a standing ovation.

Three performers sing and dance on stage at Woodruff Auditorium in the Kansas Union as a part of last year's Brown Bag Drag performance event.

Basketball tournament aids health initiative

Jayhawk Health Initiative, a pre-health program for students, put on the tournament where teams of three competed to win a $300 grand prize.
The silent auction featured a signed basketball from the men's team and a signed football from the football队. The lucky buyer paid $170 for the basketball.
The winning team, the Flint Tropics, came out on top over the 29 other competing teams to win the $300 grand prize.
"It was great to see all of our volunteers who put in hard work get a huge payoff from the event," Wallace said. "This is really going to help us"

"We'll be in Panama for a week. Pre-health students will be joining up with a medical brigade where we will have doctors provide health care for those in need," Wallace said. "The money we raised through the tournament will go towards medicine, hiring doctors, and other supplies."
Wallace says the group is hoping to raise as much money as they can before the trip to Panama because the more money they raise, the more help they can provide.
Health Initiative will be able to take future trips to other countries to provide free medical care to those who need it.
The students going to Panama
will be teaming up with doctors to provide medical and dental checks, medication, and education. Students will teach patients about correctly brushing their teeth and obtaining clean water.

University receives feedback from recycling competition
MEGAN LUCAS
The University recently took part in RecycleMania, a nationwide competition where schools collect data on the amounts they recycle. RecycleMania ranks schools in eight categories: bottles and cans, corrugated cardboard, food service organics, paper, gorilla, per capita classic and waste minimization.
In the University's first year of competition, it has room for improvement.
In a few categories the University did well. The University won the Targted Materials category and took second place in the gorilla prize category for Kansas.
mlucas@kansan.com
The Gorilla Prize takes the total amount of materials recycled compared to other participating schools in the state. The University had 17,490 pounds and Kansas State University had
In the category of the Grand Champion, which takes the total number of recycled materials divided by the total amount of trash, KU was at 17 percent, while K-State was at 26 percent.
228,777 pounds.
In the category of food waste, the University took 57th place out of 156 competitors with 4,698 pounds. The University was first in the Big 12. In the category of bottles and cans, however, the University did not do very well.
"This was our first year participating, and we can always go upwards," Center for Sustainability staff member Manny Abarta said. "Recycling here is very low — at 17 percent and the national is 34 percent. I made a promise to the student government to improve that."
Currently the recycling bin to trash can ratio is low, with one recycling bin for every five trash cans.
This summer, there are plans for a waste audit to come look through the University's trash to see what can be recycled that students are throwing away.
"It is important not to be discouraged", Abarta said. "We knew that we wouldn't do well and that gives us more tools when we are focusing on new programs."
"We have a great opportunity here," Abarta said. "I wanted to get us going and know where we stand. This is the first step."
Abarta is currently working on a project to see how recycling is done at the University.
Edited by Brian Sisk
"We need student participation," Abarta said. "We don't have enough people engaged who know how to make a difference and want to. Once recycling becomes fun, it will be natural for students. We need to develop habits and trends."

Republicans begin to endorse gay marriage
ST. PAUL, Minn. — A national group of prominent GOP donors that supports gay marriage is pouring new money into lobbying efforts to get Republican lawmakers to vote to make it legal.
ASSOCIATED PRESS
Minnesota Gov. Mark Dayton tells hundreds who turned out to rally at the Capitol in St. Paul, Minn. in support of a bill to legalize marriage that the hoped legislators will pass this year.
INVADING THE MONEY
Its founders are launching a new lobbying organization, American Unity Fund, and already have spent more than $250,000 in Minnesota, where the Leg-
American Unity PAC was formed last year to lend financial support to Republicans who bucked the party's longstanding opposition to gay marriage.
"There are legislators out there that are struggling with this."
who really want to see the party embrace the freedom to marry, and believe it's not only the right thing for the country but also good politics," Cook-McCormac said.
islature could vote on the issue as early as next week.
In Minnesota, the money has gone to state groups that are lobbying Republican lawmakers and for polling on gay marriage in a handful of suburban districts held by Republicans. So far, only one Minnesota Republican lawmaker has committed to voting
GARL KUHL
Former political aide
The group has spent $500,000 on lobbying since last month, including efforts in Rhode Island, Delaware, Indiana, West Virginia and Utah.
Billionaire hedge fund manager and Republican donor Paul Singer launched American Unity PAC. The lobbying effort is the next phase as the push for gay marriage spreads to more states, spokesman Jeff Cook-McCormac told The Associated Press.
"What you have is this network of influential Republicans
"I think there will be some more. There are legislators out there that are struggling with this," said Carl

to legalize gay marriage. Sen.
Branden Petersen, of Andover.
Gay marriage's fate in Minnesota may rest with the House, where support is seen as shakier than in the Senate. A handful of votes from Republicans could put it over the top. Nearly two dozen House Republicans represent more socially moderate suburbs and might be candidates to vote yes.
House Speaker Paul Thissen, DFL-Minneapolis, said he has encouraged advocates of the marriage bill to round up Republican votes, if nothing else than to send a message to Minnesota residents that it's not a partisan proposition. But that will be politically risky; the main opposition group to same-sex marriage, Minnesota for Marriage, has said it will seek consequences for Republicans who stray on gay marriage.
Part of American Unity PAC's original mission was to spend money on behalf of Republican gay marriage supporters. Many GOP lawmakers have faced primary challenges funded in part by anti-gay marriage groups such as the National Organization for Marriage, which argue that the lawmakers had betrayed the party's core principles.
Since forming the lobby group last month, American Unity also
spent money to win over Republican lawmakers in Rhode Island, where last week all five Republicans in the state Senate jumped on the gay marriage bandwagon. Rhode Island is on track to legalize gay marriage by next week, which would make it the 11th U.S. state where gay marriage is legal.
There are also plans to lobby federal lawmakers on gay rights issues.

TOPEKA — Kansas higher education officials are depending upon Republican Gov. Sam Brownback's political mojo working on fellow GOP conservatives on tax issues to preserve existing state funding for public universities and colleges.
Brownback began touring university and community college campuses
The governor and other Republicans want to position Kansas to phase out individual income taxes, but the state must stabilize its budget over the next few years. Brown-back proposes to cancel a decrease in the sales tax scheduled by law for
last week in what his administration described as an effort to highlight the importance of higher education to the state and its economy. The tour came after university presidents warned the Kansas Board of Regents that budget cuts being considered by legislators could endanger crucial initiatives.
Legislators are taking their annual spring break and plan to reconvene
May 8 to finish their business for the year. Tax issues are linked to the campaign to prevent cuts in higher education spending.
July, and if lawmakers don't agree to that plan, they'll find it difficult — and perhaps impossible — to follow his recommendation to preserve existing higher education spending.
The Republican-dominated Legislature appears headed toward cutting higher education, with some GOP lawmakers suggesting the regents and university officials haven't been held accountable to the
public. But much depends on how legislators resolve tax issues.
"Until we pass the tax package, I have absolutely no idea what kind of funding we're going to get to work with," said Sen. Tom Arpke, a conservative Salina Republican and chairman of the Senate Ways and Means subcommittee on education.

I'm ready to be done with classes, but not ready to leave Lawrence for the summer.
That "Turn in drugs here" thing would probably work a lot better at Mizzou.
College: Making me fat one test at a time.
You Johnson County people can suck it up. No one gets hate like Topeka kids.
The number of people complaining about professors and students bringing their kids to class is TOO DAMN HIGH.
It's not a walk of shame, it's a walk of life.
Students, stop whining for extra credit, just study for finals. Love, your professors.
What a beautiful day to be a Jayhawk.
For future "bell tower" comments. The instrument is the carillon, it is housed in the campanile, and the player of said carillon is a carillonneur.
Can someone please enforce the "no skateboarding on campus" rule?
Excuse me, but anti-gay groups never had a legitimate argument to begin with.

Underclassmen. Quit walking in and out of the classroom in the middle of a lecture like you own the place. You're annoying.
Four people at Wal-Mart compliment ed me on my fake moustache. I don't know if that's good or bad.
Throwing cigarette butts into a dumpster is extremely dangerous. I would prefer litter over fire.
If I see one more hashtag in the FFA I will find the editor and hit him in the mouth. If it's a her I'll ask her to stop. Angrily of course, Editor's note: #StopWhining
Both guys and girls complaining about being forever alone. You know if we all meet up somewhere we can solve this.
I wonder how bell tower kids jam out.
For some reason I can imagine them
looking like keyboard cat.
I wonder how much of my new student fee went to pay for my future safe ride adventures.
It was national bring your kid to work day. Chill out.
Almost got run over by one of those tiny maintenance trucks. Lamest near-death experience ever.
Brain surgery on the jayhawk is completed!!!
Today I jaywalked in front of a cop car. I too like to live life dangerously.
To the girl that lives at Naismith Hall. I hope the ghost of James Naismith haunts you for wearing those Mizzou sweats on this holy ground.
What do you mean the "Big Bang Theory" isn't an actual portrayal of engineers?
Spam email leads to incredible e-book
About every two or three days, I check my spam folder. Mostly, this is just to make sure no useful emails have gotten lodged back there by mistake. But occasionally, in the swamp of form letters from Chinese merchants addressing me as "supplier" and looking to "create good business relationship" with my company, I find a hidden comedy gem that just comes out of left field. I unearthed such a diamond in fecal matter, and it was too weird not to share.
The subject line reads, "An Appeal to the Media," and its sender, who lives in Maryland, is asking me to send him some constructive criticism on his cryptically vague book project, which he refers to as "a novel idea" and has apparently thrown at every media outlet in the country at least once to see if it will stick.
"As a professional journalist of the Daily Kansan, your expert opinion on [my project] would be greatly appreciated," he writes, apparently ignorant of the facts that they don't pay me to do this job and that, as the humor columnist, I'm probably the least professional person on the staff.
Still, he says it will only take me "ONE MINUTE" to peruse his site and give him feedback, so I hop on over. What have I got to lose?
By Sylas May
smay@kansan.com
What little sanity I'm still holding onto, apparently. The site contains an e-book that my mysterious correspondent is trying to get publicity for, which (as far as I can tell) details an encounter he had with an extraterrestrial. But it doesn't limit itself to just kooky UFO conspiracy theories; the author claims in the Frequently Asked Questions section of the site that "[My project]" is about everything under the sun and over the rainbow." Also, to keep the people at PETA happy, the bottom of the homepage contains a disclaimer: "No trees, animals, earthlings or aliens were harmed, poked or prodded in production." Later on, the actual "book" reiterates: "In my story no animals are hurt. No man bites a dog. No canines are thrown off the set of a show in the way 'Family Guy's' dog Brian was abusively and dishonorably kicked off the set of Bill Maher's HBO show when all the dog wanted to do was promote his book." It's clear he was worried about some kind of
complaints, but I think this tract is too crazy for even PETA to sit through.
The book itself, upon closer inspection, details a day in which the author, sitting on his couch, is overcome by a blinding light and forced to engage in a "friendly conversation" with a "luminary" from the planet Zatox, who is bristling with tentacles, changes his skin color constantly and happens to speak perfect English in a cultured British accent. After the alien promises to "keep [their] encounter in the real of a dream," the two have a lengthy discussion of the merits of socialism. Some of the highlights:
In the book's third chapter, the author asks himself if the alien could be "some sort of a socialist solicitor" after it tries (and fails) to make a point about human society through an analogy about
the way a tree's vascular systems work. From what I can gather from the text, the author's accusation is based almost entirely on the alien's red skin tone.
After the alien makes a slip of the tongue, the author says, "It made me wish Dr. Freud would have been entered this dream in order to interpret it, if it indeed was a beam—I mean dream." Because the one thing this already painfully weird story needs is a shrink talking about how the alien's many tentacles are an extension of the author's sexual fetishes.
Upon learning that the author is unemployed, the alien asks if it is possible to make a career out of unemployment. Judging by the outlandishness of his ideas and his general cookiness, I'd agree that this guy is probably the best person to ask.
Midway through a chapter, the author takes a break from talking about the alien to muse about the possibility of birds taking over the planet in retribution for the extinctions that humans have caused. This rant tries to link this theory to the popularity of the video game "Angry Birds" and contains the wonderfully inept
sentence "Were we just porcine featherweights in an upcoming struggle between the 'Aves' and the 'have-nots'?"
The author describes some vaguely unsettling rhymes he uses to sing to himself on the subway on his way to work: "My favorite began with 'I'm' and then continued repeatedly 'a lunatic from Georgia Tech, a rambling wreck, oh what the heck, I picked a peck and took my pick, held up a stick and gave a kick, a lunatic from Georgia Tech..."
As you can see, it's not the most coherent piece of prose in the world. But despite its flaws, I think this guy's got a fair shot at getting his book published somewhere if he wants to. All he has to do is change his mouthpiece in the book to a woman and include a scene of hot, steamy alien lovemaking, and this thing will be the next "50 Shades of Grey" (perhaps the alien could even change its skin color to a gradient of grays as an homage!). And, in retrospect, if we're going that route, it couldn't hurt to throw Freud back in there.

University exam structure hinders students' achievement chances
Final exams are outdated and need reconsideration. The traditional class structure of paltry homework assignments and hefty final exams is hindering the University's goals.
Tests are universal. Some courses are project or essay focused, but graduating without taking any kind of test is an impossible feat. How else can an educator cast a wide net to measure learning? Final exams provide closure to a learning phase, a final touch to a semester of progress. They certainly expose the substantial number of students that truly don't have a clue what's going on. They are supposedly fair. But, each final exam has become a single performance.
The situation is analogous to basketball. No one will remember how players wake up at 5 a.m. and shoot thousands of shots before practice. It's not about how great a shooter you are or how great a defender you are. At the end of the day, it's about winning games and winning championships.
Final exams have turned into tremendous performances, minus the fanfare of winning a championship. Instead of gauging understanding or preventing slackers from reaching more complex courses, exams have turned into whether or not you can stick a landing. A petroleum engineering course I took a year ago had only one exam, the final exam, worth 100 percent of the grade. One false step and the exact same course was in my near future, regardless of what I learned. One performance could define whether or not a semester was worthwhile.
It isn't just final exams. Regular exams worth 30 percent are downright deadly too. This traditional class structure, where homework and quizzes are worth a penny or two but exams are worth an arm and a leg, hinders the University's objective to prepare students for lifelong learning, leadership and success. It kills learning diversity.
By Chris Ouyang couyang@kansan.com
I don't think it's a surprise to anyone that each student learns differently. Some students learn visually. Some are auditory learners. Many require analogy. Some students excel with repetition. Some need their homework graded so they can see their mistakes. Some students need a pencil in hand because computer-based assignments are fickle. Many need a computer to type notes because their handwriting is atrocious.
As a competitive person who learns well from repetition and textbooks, I've been in position to take advantage of in-class tests. The traditional class structure gives me systemic advantages. However, it crushes students that learn differently. It decimates diligent students who prepare their physics solutions daily, but on test day become anxious and miss three of eight multiple choice questions. It suffocates practical students who know 98 percent of organic chemistry nomenclature but misname the exception to ring structures. The class may have encouraged different kinds of learning styles, but there's hardly variation in multiple choice and free response exams.
The University goes out of its way to encourage diversity, but stops short when it comes to promoting diverse learning styles because exams, by sheer weight, are too narrow in scope. Conform to the structure and do well. Learning the way you learn best might test your luck,
not your knowledge. Diverse students come into a class, but cookie-cutter thinkers come out. Who can blame the students for wanting to do well?
Instead of addressing the structural needs of the flailing students, those pummeled by a class' format, some professors commit the sin of curving exam grades. Students that should fail are not failing, students that need their different learning styles acknowledged remain unadressed, and achieving students decide they don't need to work hard to do well.
Sadly, no one measures achievement by how hard you tried. It's the cruelest irony that afflicts students with great work ethics. No one measures the number of hours we don't sleep. We are measured by the value that we create, the material we know, and the skills we can apply. But a final exam systematically discriminates, like a broken scale. If the University wants to build life-long learners who achieve, why not rebel against the traditional class structure? Why not add a class shopping period with a sample test, so students aren't duped on final exam day when it's already too late! Instead of four tests worth the entire grade, why not have a midterm, a term paper, a presentation, and a group project?
Even the awful test taker knows that "I'm just a bad test taker" is a terrible excuse for doing poorly in a class. But if the University is going to make progress towards any of its goals, don't courses need to change? I don't detest exams. I'm mildly proud to say that I've made my living off of them, in a way. But the University will get nowhere fast unless courses are structured differently.

Sleeping is key to finals week success
Lots of terrible things went down during the past couple weeks, and they've been sitting heavy on my mind way too often. I seriously needed a break from the weight of the real world, so I forced myself to think about other stuff. The result? Another round of Monday musings:
FINALS
INTERESTED IN WORKING FOR THE KANSAN?
With finals coming up, I'd like to point out a rule I've followed for a while that was recently corroborated by hard science: trying to pull an all-nighter or staying up very late to study for a test will make you do worse than your peers who've had a good night's sleep.
According to a study from the University of Texas that tracked students academics and sleep habits, those that had the least sleep had more academic problems and worse performance. This is because sleep is all powerful. Sleep consolidates memories (as in it makes you remember all of those formulas and essay topics better). It makes you focused the next day. Shocker: It just gives you energy. So while you might think that studying an extra hour or two until 3 a.m. will help you, it actually just makes sure your brain has less time to absorb everything you're cramming for.
SLEEP
While I'm at it, I'll talk about some extra sleep tips. Last year, Esquire asked some experts, and taking a 30 minute nap an hour before your test will help wipe your mind of most issues, so when you wake up you can focus only on your test.
Another shocker: Ingesting caffeine after and taking naps after 5 p.m. has been proven to disrupt your sleep schedule and keep you up into the wee hours of the next day. So don't do it, because you'll be tired and won't be able to focus.
VIDEO GAMES
Apply to work as a Reporter, Designer or Photographer for the Sumner and Fall staffs of the University Daily Kansan at employment.ku.edu.
"Bioshock Infinite" is the best all-around media I've been exposed to in a while. There's enough action and bloodshed to make "300" look like "My Little Pony," enough symbolism and social and moral commentary to bring tears to the eyes of an
But seriously, it's a stupifying good game — as in I could think of nothing else for 48 hours. It's fun to see a video game break so many boundaries at once. If the Oscars suddenly changed their rules, this game would stand a fair chance at winning best picture.
CHEMISTRY
English major, and plays out so much like an artistic film that I would make even Wes Anderson enthusiasts put down their cigarette (or chai tea) long enough to say "It was almost as good as Life Aquatic."
By Andrew Simpson
asimpson@kansan.com
I'm kind of tired of hearing people say stuff like "Oh I'll never need to use that in real life." You probably could and should, if you wanted to. Today's example: chemistry.
If you've taken a chemistry course, you have no excuse to be bad at cooking. Almost all dishes include some sort of acid-base reaction, like adding wine to a dish or marinating meat. They both help break down the proteins and carbohydrates in the food, and both add volatile compounds that contribute to aroma, and stable molecules that contribute to flavor. Those stable molecules won't do anything by themselves, they have to caramelized, which is a form of pyrolysis, a reaction that takes one molecule and changes it to another, depending on the level of heat added. Somehow, we got lucky enough that most edible things have molecules that can be caramelized at low temperatures (less than 500 degrees) into really tasty things. Basically any good you've had that was baked, grilled, or toasted is due to caramelization.
Oh yeah, you've also had basic thermodynamics in chemistry, so you aren't allowed to be surprised or upset when you burns things when you leave them in a really hot oven, pan, or whatever.

Bay's 'Pain and Gain' shows unexpected flair
LANDON MCDONALD
imcdonald@kansan.com
Desperate for a taste of the good life and brainwashed by an aphorism-spewing self-help guru (Ken Jeong), Lugo recruits fellow gym rat Adrian (Anthony Mackie) and huking ex-con Paul
Question: What happens when Michael Bay foregoes almost everything that makes him the eyeball-straining, intellect-draining king of summer blockbusters: his nine-figure budgets, his penchant for non-stop explosions, his borderline incomprehensible editing style and his inexplicable affinity for Shia Labeouf and leghumping robots? Answer: He turns around and makes his best movie since 1996's "The Rock."
Like the unholy spawn of "Scarface" and "Magic Mike", Bay's new comedy "Pain and Gain" is a visceral sleazoid delight, a story defined by madcap absurdities that seem all the more potent given their purported basis in fact (Christopher Markus and Stephen McFeely's screenplay was adapted from a series of Miami New Times articles). The year is 1994 and the American Dream seems to have turned its star-spangled backside on Daniel Lugo (Mark Wahlberg), a bodybuilder who's been reduced to working as a personal trainer at Miami's Sun Gym. Lugo's least favorite client is the half-jewish, half-Colombian Victor Kershaw (Tony Shalhoub); a vulgar local businessman who spends their workout sessions bragging about his offshore holdings while insisting that salad was invented by poor people.
(Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson) for a harebrained scheme to kidnap Kershaw and divvy up his massive, possibly ill-gotten fortune. Of course, their plans quickly devolve into a succession of progressively violent blunders that earn them the attention of Detective Ed DuBois (Ed Harris, reliable as always), and eventually the entire state of Florida.
Although the real-life saga of the so-called Sun Gym Gang culminated in the murder and dismemberment of two innocent people, "Pain and Gain" plays the whole bloody affair strictly for laughs. The story unfolds like a low-rent version of a Coen Brothers crime caper as directed by the late Tony Scott, minus the acerbic wit of the former and the show-stopping visual panache of the latter. This is still a Michael Bay joint after all, replete with enough casual racism, blatant homophobia and gratuitous slow motion to fill three more "Transformers" sequels (don't worry, there's more of those on the way).
The reason "Pain and Gain" outclasses most of Bay's recent output has a great deal to do with the nerve and verve of its central performances. Wahlberg in fulltilt "Boogie Nights" mode here, playing a character whose drive to succeed in life has mutated into a raging steroidal version of Manifest Destiny. Johnson, who tempered his weapons-grade charisma with newfound dramatic range earlier this year in "Snitch," practically walks away with the movie as Paul, a born-again lunkhead with a titanically unresolved
SUDOKU
As the bodies pile up and the authorities close in on our increasingly antagonistic protagonists, the film struggles to decide whether it's a wry send-up of consumer culture or an endorsement of the American Dream as the ultimate performance enhancer. It never quite manages to make up its mind, ending with a jarring tonal shift that feels somewhat disingenuous in light of all the consequence-free Bay-hem that's preceded it. Yet for most of its runtime, "Pain and Gain" excels at showing us exactly what its director is capable of when he's free from the constraints of making $200 million toy commercials.
Difficulty Level ★
As is often the case with Bay, the supporting cast here is ridiculously over-qualified. Rebel Wilson, fresh off last year's box office hit "Pitch Perfect," brings some much-needed girl power to the underwritten role of Adrian's nurse-turned-wife, while Shalhoub calls on every nasty epithet he can muster to make Kershaw the world's least sympathetic extortion victim. Harris, a Bay veteran since "The Rock," is obviously meant to serve as this movie's answer to Marge Gunderson, the Frances McDormand character from "Fargo," the honest cop who surveys the carnage and laments its futility.

THE QUEEN WAS SO VERY FUNNY IN THE RING, AND WAS ALWAYS SO FUNNY. I HAVE A VERY NICE TIME WITH THE QUEEN.
ASSOCIATED PRESS
Dutch Crown Prince Willem Alexander and Dutch Queen Beatrix wave to well wishers from the balcony of Royal Palace in The Hague, Netherlands. It is revealed April 15 that Netherlands' Crown Prince Willem-Alexander will become king when his mother Queen Beatrix abdicates at the end of April 2013, and will earn a king's salary of 825,000 euro (1.1 million US dollars) which is more than twice the salary of the president of the United States.
Dutch queen to abdicate this week
ASSOCIATED PRESS
AMSTERDAM — He's evolved from a beer-loving student dubbed Prince Pils to an International Olympic Committee member and respected U.N. water expert. Now comes the ultimate transformation for Dutch Crown Prince Willem-Alexander: He's about to become king.
Queen Beatrix's handover to her son after a 33-year reign has triggered a frenzy of orange-tinted patriotism across the Netherlands, while also relegating a debate about the monarchy's role in this egalitarian society. Willem-Alexander,
who tured 46 on Saturday, has been groomed for the monarchy all his life, but he has also carved out a busy career, parts of which he will now have to give up in favor of his largely ceremonial job a head of state.
head of state.
"It looks like the political role the monarchy plays is more likely to decrease than to increase."
In an interview that aired earlier this month, Willem-Mexander, a father of three daughters, seemed to have no regrets about leaving behind his old life and insisted — with a touch of good humor — that being king is a job with substance.
hoping Willem-Alexander's inven-
titure will be the country's last.
"We will have to await political developments — there is draft legislation to get him out of the government — then there is not much left apart from cutting ribbons and the question is whether his daughter will want to do that in 20 years," said Anjo Clement of the New Republican Society. "We don't think so. We think he will be the last Dutch king."
"Because even what is sometimes sarcastically called ribbon-cutting can be meaningful," he said.
The Netherlands' small republican movement says it will protest on Tuesday in Amsterdam and is
While the Dutch monarch formally is part of the country's government, his or her powers are limited. Until the last elections. Queen
HENK DE VELDE
Leiden University professor
Beatrix helped in forming new governments after the vote by appointing an adviser to steer coalition-building negotiations. Lawmakers have now taken away that power.
"It looks like
the political role the monarchy plays is more likely to decrease than to increase," said Henk de Velde, a professor of Dutch history at Leiden University.
Willem Alexander will become king the moment his mother signs abdication papers Tuesday morning in Moses Hall of the Royal Palace on the Dam, the central square in downtown Amsterdam.
That will be followed by an investiture ceremony at the 15th-century New Church next door to the palace. There, Willem-Alexander
will swear allegiance to the Dutch constitution and people in a ceremony attended by both houses of Dutch Parliament, as well as guests including royalty from around the world and commoners from across the Netherlands.
Thousands of orange-clad subjects — the Dutch royal dynasty is the House of Orange-Nassau — will cram into the square in front of the palace to cheer their departing queen and the new king as part of a day-long celebration across this country of nearly 17 million.
One notable absence will be among the family of Willem-Alexander's popular Argentine-born wife, Princess Maxima — who will soon be queen. Her father, Jorge Zorregueta, was an agriculture minister in the military junta that ruled Argentina with an iron fist in the late 1970s and early 1980s.
His past in the brutal regime meant that he also was not invited to Willem-Alexander and Maxima's 2002 wedding.
"It was clear that if my father could not come for the wedding then it was very clear: This is a constitutional celebration so my father doesn't belong there," Maxima said in a recent interview.
Around a million people will be on the streets of Amsterdam, sparking a huge crowd control operation involving some 10,000 police and other security services. The air space over the city will be closed on the day.
The last time the Netherlands got a new monarch, when Beatrix ascended the throne in 1980, demonstrators protesting chronic housing shortages fought pitched battles with riot police through the city's historic center.
Willem-Alexander's investiture also comes four years to the day after an unemployed recluse, Karst Tates, tried to slam his car into an open-topped bus carrying members of the royal family during the Queen's Day national holiday.
Tates killed himself and seven bystanders and left members of the House of Orange gasping in horror as they watched the attack, before being whisked away from the scene.
Amsterdam mayor Eberhard van der Laan — himself a republican — said security will be tight, but should not intrude too much on festivities on the streets and canals of the Dutch capital.
"You have to accept certain risks," he said in an interview with The Associated Press. "Because otherwise people will think of this city: 'What's going on here?' This isn't my city anymore. This is a city for dignitaries only."
Organizers have promised to keep a lid on the costs, given the troubled economic climate in the Netherlands. Unemployment has been climbing rapidly in recent months as the trading nation continues to be buffeted by the European economic crisis.
Willem Alexander will be the first Dutch king since Willem III died in 1890. He follows on from three queens, Beatrix, Juliana and Wilhelmina, whose reigns spanned the entire 20th century.

Late actor reportedly served in Nazi SS unit
BERLIN — Reports that the late German actor Horst Tappt, best known for his longtime role as dapper TV sleuth Stefan Derrick, served in a feared Nazi SS unit prompted at least one European broadcaster to announce Saturday that it would drop the "Derrick's" rums from its schedule.
Dutch TV station MAX pulled reruns of the show, which was produced from 1974 to 1998, after daily Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung published documents Friday showing the actor had been in the SS during World War II.
"Derrick" was one of the most widely syndicated German TV shows, broadcast in over 100 countries including China, Australia, France and Norway.

Tappert had spoken of his wartime service as a medic in an interview 10 years before his death in 2008. But he didn't mention that his unit was part of the elite SS Armored Infantry Regiment 1, nicknamed the "Skulls" after the emblem they wore.

In 2006, German Nobel literature laureate Guenter Grass admitted in an autobiography that he had been a member of the SS in the final months of the war. The revelation hurt Grass' image as one of the 'moral consciences' in post-war Germany.
The SS is known to have committed atrocities during World War II but it was unclear from the newly discovered documents whether Tappert was directly involved.

Peter Grune, a spokesman for German public broadcaster ZDF that co-produced the show's 281 episodes, said nobody at the station had known of Tappert's SS pasf.
Earlier this year ZDF broadcast a three-part drama about the war, accompanied by a public campaign that urged Germans to seek out survivors of the Nazi period and ask them about the role they played at the time.

'Pain and Gain tops weekend US box office sales
LOS ANGELES — "Iron Man 3" was the heavy-lifter at theaters with a colossal overseas debut that overshadowed a gang of mercenary bodybuilders in a sleepy pre-summer weekend at the domestic box office.
The Marvel Studios superhero sequel starring Robert Downey Jr. got a head-start on its domestic launch first Friday with a $195.3 million opening in 42 overseas markets, distributor Disney reported Sunday.
Director Michael Bay's "Pain & Gain," a true-crime tale of bodybuilders on the make, muscled into first-place domestically with a $20 million debut.
"You don't know that you could ever repeat the kind of experience we had a year ago, and here the Marvel team brought together another incredible movie," said Dave Hollis, head of distribution for Disney. "We've had this as a pattern for Marvel films to kind of let momentum internationally help signal to the domestic audience that the film is coming, something big is coming."
The Paramount release starring Mark Wahlberg, Dwayne Johnson and Anthony Mackie knocked off Tom Cruise's sci-fi adventure "Oblivion" after a week in the No. 1 spot. Universal's "Oblivion" slipped to secondplace with $17.4 million, raising its domestic total to $64.7 million.
A passion project for Bay, who has made Paramount a fortune with his "Transformers" franchise, "Pain & Gain" was shot for a modest $26 million, spare change compared to the director's usual budgets.
Lionsgate's all-star nuptial comedy "The Big Wedding" tanked at No. 4 with just $7.5 million. The ensemble cast includes Robert De Dri, Niane Keaton, Robin Williams, Susan Sarandon and Katherine Heighl, but the movie was almost universally trashed by critics and held little interest for audiences.
That topped the $185.1 million start for Marvel's "The Avengers," which opened in 39 markets over the same weekend last year a week ahead of its record-breaking domestic debut of $207.4 million.
Paramount, which distributed the earlier "Iron Man" movies and still has a financial stake in the comic-book flakes after Disney bought Marvel, had a small-scale success with "Pain & Gain."
The movie has the director taking a breather from his usual sci-fi action spectacles for a story based on a kidnapping-extortion caper carried out by bodybuilders in the 1990s. Yet "Pain & Gain" still has Bay's usual visual flair, and the reviews generally were better than what he's used to.
"With that kind of budget, to open to $20 million the first weekend is a very strong opening," said Don Harris, Paramount's head of distribution. "You see what a director really in his prime, at the top of his game, can do with a small budget, what he can make a movie look like."
"Oblivion" was down a fairly steep 53 percent from the movie's $37.1 million domestic debut the previous weekend.
Overseas, "Oblivion" took in $12.8 million to lift its international haul to $134.1 million and worldwide total to just under $200 million.
Hollywood's domestic downturn continued, with revenues totaling $90 million, off 18.5 percent from the same weekend last year, when "Think Like a Man" led with $17.6 million, according to box-office tracker Hollywood.com.
Receipts have trailed 2012's for most of the year, with 2013 domestic ticket sales running at $2.9 billion, nearly 12 percent behind last year's.
That pattern could continue as Hollywood opens its summer season domestically this coming weekend. Despite a huge haul expected for "Iron Man 3," the film will be competing against that gigantic start over the same weekend last year for "The Avengers," the only movie to open with more than $200 million domestically.
"Iron Man 2" debated with $128.1 million over the first weekend in May 2010. Hollywood.com analyst Paul Dergarabedian has been pegging the "Iron Man 3" potential at $125 million-plus, though the mammoth international start could fire up domestic prospects even higher.
"This ups the ante in a big way for "Iron Man 3," Dergarabedian said. "It just raises the profile of the film. It raises expectations. But to expect something in the realm of $207.4 million? Well, the fact that we're even talking about it is really amazing."
Said Disney's Hollis: "I wouldn't even want to get ahead of ourselves on something like that. But to say we're encouraged by the results this weekend would be a gross understatement."
Estimated ticket sales for Friday through Sunday at U.S. and Canadian theaters, according to Hollywood.com. Where available, latest international numbers are also included. Final domestic figures will be released Monday.
1. "Pain & Gain," $20 million.
2. "Oblivion," $17.4 million ($12.8 million international).
3. "42," $10.7 million.
4. "The Big Wedding," $7.5 million.
5. "The Croods," $6.6 million ($13.1 million international).
6. "G.I. Joe: Retaliation," $3.6 million ($10.2 million international).
7. "Scary Movie 5," $3.5 million ($6.7 million international).
8. "Olympus Has Fallen," $2.8 million ($4.2 million international).
9. "The Place Beyond the Pines," $2.7 million ($1.1 million international).
10. "jurassic Park" in 3-D, $2.3 million ($410,000 international).

ZUBOVA POLYANA, Russia — A Russian court on Friday rejected a plea for early release from prison by a member of the feminist punk band Pussy Riot, whose provocative songs and prosecution have made them a symbol of the country's opposition movement.
Nadezhda Tolokonnikova, who has been in custody since her arrest last March, is serving a two-year sentence handed down after the band staged an irreverent protest against President Vladimir Putin in Moscow's main cathedral.
Judge Lidiya Yakovleva said evidence showed that Tolokonnikova did not deserve early release because she had "not always followed the rules of behavior" while in custody.
Tolokonnikova's attorney Irina Khrunova was quoted by the Interfax news agency as saying she would appeal on the grounds that the judge did not allow final statements by the defense team.
Tolokonnikova and two other band members were sentenced to prison terms on charges of hooliganism motivated by religious hatred. She sought early release after serving half her sentence, a provision allowed by law.
Another of the convicted band members, Yekaterina Samutsevich, had her sentence suspended on appeal last year.
Tolokonnikova, dressed in a Soviet-style dark prison uniform with a white scarf around her neck, told the court that the prison colony where she is serving her sentence did not support her plea of early release because she "didn't repent." Russian law does not make repentance a condition for an early release.
Nadezhda Tolokonnikova, a member of the feminist punk band Pussy Riot, right, reads papers at a district court in Zubova Polyana, 270 miles southeast of Moscow in Russia's province of Mordovia on Friday. A Russian court is to consider whether one of the jailed Pussy Riot members is eligible for early release. Nadezhda Tolokonnikova, in custody since her arrest in March 2012, is serving a two-year sentence for the band's irreverent protest against President Vladimir Putin in Moscow's main cathedral.

Olivier Awards recognize London stars and entertainers
BRITAIN
ASSOCIATED PRESS
LONDON — Helen Mirren was crowned queen of the London stage at the Olivier Awards Sunday, while compelling, canine-titled teen drama "The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time" emerged as best in show with seven trophies.
Mirren, 67, was a popular and expected best actress choice for her regal yet vulnerable Queen Elizabeth II in "The Audience," Peter Morgan's behind-palace doors drama about the relationship between Britain's queen and its prime ministers.
The actress, who won an Academy Award in 2007 for playing Britain's monarch in "The Queen," quipped that it was
87-year-old Elizabeth who deserved an award, "for the most consistent and committed performance of the 20th century, and probably the 21st century"
"I'm not sure I deserve this. But I've also got sciatica, and I don't deserve that either."
Her "Audience" co-star, Richard McCabe, who won the supporting actor trophy for playing 1960s and 70s Prime Minister Harold Wilson, said Mirren was a joy to work with.
"I was making a joke about the queen winning, but I think actually it is a reflection of the kind of respect the queen is held in," she said.
Backstage, it turned out she wasn't kidding. Mirren, who has been Olivier-nominated three times before, said that finally winning "doesn't mean that I was the best actor. There were so many incredible performances out there."
"It's important as an actor to be absolutely fearless, and she is," he said.

The show, which premiered at the state-subsidized National Theatre last year before transferring to a commercial West End playhouse, has won praise for its creative use of movement

The play also won prizes for director Marianne Elliott and supporting actress Nicola Walker, as well as for set, lighting and sound.

"I think people could kind of see themselves in him," Treadaway said.
Walker said the play had.

The Olivier awards honor achievements in London plays, musicals, dance and opera. Winners in most categories are chosen by a panel of stage professionals and theatergoers.
Founded in 1976, the Oliviers have been laying on the glitz in recent years, with glossy ceremonies modeled on Broadway's Tony Awards.
"Downtown Abbee" actor Hugh Bonneville and West End star Sheridan Smith — an Olivier winner in 2011 and 2012 — hosted a sparky ceremony that included performances by "Glee" star Matthew Morrison, Tony-winning "Wicked" diva Idina Menzel and 60s songstress Petula Clark.
The best new musical category had a retro feel, with the trophy going to "Top Hat" — a tapdancing, tail-coated homage to Hollywood's Golden Age based on the 1935 Fred Astaire-Ginger Rogers movie. It also won awards for costume design and choreography.
Blood-soaked musical "Sweeney Todd" took the prize for best musical revival, with its stars Imelda Staunton and Michael Ball named best actress and actor in a musical.
"I'm not sure I deserve this," Ball said. "But I've also got sciatica, and I don't deserve that either."
Royal Ballet principal dancer Marianela Nunez took the prize for outstanding achievement in dance, while the same company's "Aeternum" was named best new dance production.

Visitors take a tour of contemporary art by artist Edo Murtic from Croatia, displayed at the war bunker about 50 miles south of Sarajevo, Bosnia, on Friday, April 26. The once-secret bunker, built to shelter Yugoslavia's Marshal Josip Broz Tito and the communist leadership from a nuclear war turns — for three months — into one of the world's quirkiest contemporary art galleries.
Art exhibit re-opened in past Yugoslavian bunker
ASSOCIATED PRESS
KONJIC, Bosnia-Herzegovina — A once-secret bunker built to shelter Yugoslavia's communist leadership from nuclear war has temporarily reopened as an art gallery, with some exhibits pondering what would have happened if more mushroom clouds had hit the world's skies.
The 280-meter (920-foot) deep, U-shaped complex is dug into a mountain and took 26 years and billions of dollars to build; for years, only the late Yugoslav leader Josip Broz Tito and his closest confidantes knew the subterranean fortress existed.
The secret was revealed when Bosnia broke away from Yugoslavia in 1992. The new army took over and still owns the labyrinth just outside Konjic 25 miles south of Sarajevo. The space had never really been put to use until, in recent years, artists turned to authorities with an idea to put this sleepy town on the cultural map.
In 2011, the bunker was opened up for three months as an art gallery. This year's run, which began Friday, also is for three months, and artists from 19 countries have worked hard on performances and projects on display in almost 100 rooms of the facility, project director Edo Hozic said.
For now, the bunker's artistic transformation is being done on a biennial basis. But the goal is to gradually turn it into an art gallery permanently.
It is a "crazily incredible project," said Basak Senova, a Turkish artist who acts as one of the curators.
The entrance to the bunker, which is supposed to hold 300 people, lies behind a nondescript garage door of a remote house at the end of a lonely road east of Konjic.
The first installation is startling: A loud noise simulates the detonation of a 25-kiloton nuclear bomb in the vicinity of the bunker — making visitors feel as if they are the last to escape an apocalypse just before the giant bunker door closes.
Right afterward, visitors walk along a tunnel with floored lins
with mirrors that crack under people's steps.
Doors along the long tunnel lead to more than 100 small bedrooms, offices and conference rooms that are usually decorated with simple wooden furniture and the obligatory portrait of Tito with his usual "visionary" gaze.
The rooms have been turned into small individual galleries displaying the works of the various artists.
Some of the exhibits try to reconstruct the isolated life of the people who would have used the bunker had it been necessary. Others focus on tragedies that did occur.
Japanese artist Saeri Kiritani plays a video of a phantom touching rice and chanting for the departed souls of the Hiroshima and Nagasaki nuclear bombings. Hungarian artist Janos Sugar uses pictures of people in today's conflict zones waving their simple weapons to show how the gun became "the typewriter of the illiterate."

Obama brings humor to annual White House dinner

WASHINGTON — President Barack Obama joked Saturday that the years are catching up to him and he's not "the strapping young Muslim socialist" he used to be.
Obama poked fun at himself as well as some of his political adversaries during the annual White House Correspondents' Association dinner attended by politicians, members of the media and Hollywood celebrities.
Entering to the rap track "All I Do Is Win" by DJ Khaled, Obama joked about how re-election would allow him to unleash a radical agenda. But then he showed a picture of himself golfing on a mock magazine cover of "Senior Leisure."
"I'm not the strapping young Muslim Socialist that I used to be," the president remarked, and then recounted his recent 2-for-22 basketball shooting performance at the White House Easter egg hunt.
But Obama's most dramatic shift for the next four years appeared to be aesthetic. He presented a montage of shots featuring him with bangs similar to those sometimes sported by his wife.
"So we borrowed one of Michelle's tricks," Obama said. "I thought this looked pretty good, but no bounce."
Obama closed by noting the nation's recent tragedies in Massachusetts and Texas, praising Americans of all stripes from first responders to local journalists for serving the public good.
Saturday night's banquet not far from the White House attracted the usual assortment of stars from Hollywood and beyond. Actors Kevin Spacey, Julia Louis-Dreyfus and Claire Danes, who play government characters on various TV series, were among the attendees, as was Korean entertainer Psy. Several Cabinet members, governors and members of Congress were present.
Despite coming at a somber time, nearly two weeks after the deadly Boston Marathon bombing and 10 days after a devastating fertilizer plant explosion in West Texas, the president and political allies and rivals alike took the

He asked that the GOP's minority outreach begin with him as a "trial run" and said he'd take his recent charm offensive with Republicans on the road, including events with conservatives such as Sen. Ted Cruz, Sen. Rand Paul and Rep. Michele Bachmann.
"In fact, I'm taking my charm offensive on the road — a Texas barbeque with Ted Cruz, a Kentucky bluegrass concert with Rand Paul and a book-burning with Michele Bachmann," Obama joked.

"I mean, the guy has not even finished a single term in the Senate and he thinks he's ready to be President," Obama joked.
The gala also was an opportunity for six journalists, including Associated Press White House Correspondent Julie Pace, to be honored for their coverage of the presidency and national issues.

COMMENTARY Hawkinson makes Kansas fans proud
By Pat Strathman
pstrathman@kansan.com
The NFL draft is special. Select players nervously
The Cincinnati Bengals drafted the McPherson, Kan., native in the fifth round on Saturday.
Select players nervously check their phones for a once-in-a-lifetime phone call. Once the phone rings, celebration follows and reality sinks in that the player is officially heading to the pros.
On the flip side, many athletes aren't lucky enough to receive that call. Instead, all the hard work throughout high school and college won't be enough, and their dream comes to a screeching halt.
The dream of playing in the NFL isn't over for players who go undrafted; they can still have some success in the pros. The road is much longer and tougher, but making a solid career isn't impossible.
Sure, maybe that doesn't sound like a huge accomplishment compared to being drafted in the first round, but I can assure you, it's far from that.
Senior offensive lineman Tanner Hawkinson doesn't have to worry about that, though.
Of course, that is directly related to the lack of drafted Kansas players.
Hawkinson is the first Jayhawk player taken in the draft since 2010. Yes, three long years.
As many know, Kansas hasn't exactly had a great football program these past few years.
In the 2010 draft, safety Darrell Stuckey and wide receivers Dezmon Briscoe and Kerry Meier were selected. Those same players still compete in the NFL, though no one has made a huge contribution.
Hawkinson didn't have the same path as members in the 2010 draft

A closer look
at the final
games of the
season
When Hawkinson committed to Kansas, he didn't start right away. Originally a tight end, he switched to defensive end and then changed to offensive tackle during his red-shirt year. Changing positions is never a fun process, as each position requires a certain skill set.
If switching roles on a football team is difficult, imagine going through three different coaches during his time as a jayhawk. The inconsistency led to only 11 victories for Hawkinson while at Kansas.
But that's exactly why Hawkinson getting drafted is such an incredible moment. Through the pain and struggle, he never quit and continued to give his all during a rough patch in Kansas football history.
Everyone has a dream and a small-town Kansas kid gets a chance of a lifetime to live out that very dream.
After his redshirt year, Hawkinson earned a number of Freshman All-American and All- big 12 honors, and was named the team's most improved offensive player. He started all 12 games at left tackle.
From then on, Hawkinson continued to be the anchor of the offensive line. He finished his career a school-record 48 consecutive starts and 48 career starts. Hawkinson also earned All-Big 12 Second Team honors after his final season.
Good luck, Tanner. Jayhawk nation is pulling for you.
After a one-victory season, it's great to see a shining spot on the football team. Hawkinson will bring tremendous character, leadership and consistency to the Bengals. He'll have to get stronger and comfortable with the pace in the NFL.

The Kansas softball team dropped two of three games to the No. 14 Baylor Lady Bears this weekend to lose the series. The Jayhawks fell to the Lady Bears in the first game and won game two in thrilling walk-off fashion. The Jayhawks fell short in the final game of the series 5-4.
In the first game of the series, the Jayhawks lost 6-1. A solo homer from freshman shortstop Chaley Brickey in the bottom of the seventh was a small rally for Kansas but it was not enough to over come Baylor. Junior Alex Jones
led the team with two hits and freshman Alex Hugo tied the freshman hits record (59) with a triple in the bottom of the third. Baylor senior center fielder Kathy Shelton
board with a solo home run in the bottom of the third inning, then junior second baseman Ashley Newman added to the Jayhawk lead by hitting a three-run triple. Baylor answered with one run in the fifth, but Kansas answered quickly with a solo home run from Brickey. Trailing 5-2 in the top of the seventh, the Lady Bears' freshman left fielder Linsey Hays belted a three-run home run to tie the game at 5. Hugo had the answer to the four-run Baylor rally just two pitches into the bottom of the seventh; she blasted her second home run of the day and hit the walk off game-winning home run.
"This weekend, we lost our minds defensively and just didn't play the game we normally do."
collected three hits leading all batters. Baylor, known for its overall team speed, collected four stolen bases and brought its total to 90 on the season.
The Jayhawks won a thriller in the second game of the series. Hugo got the Jayhawks on the
MEGAN SMITH Kansas coach
"We had confidence that our team was going to pull it out, number one, but when she steps up, I always have confidence that she's going to do something special," Kansas coach Megan
Smith said of Hugo. "My goodness, that was unbelievable."
The walk-off victory gave the Jayhawk softball team three consecutive 30-win seasons in the Smith era. With Hugo's two home runs, she broke the freshman record for hits and home runs for a
season.
The Jayhawks lost in the series finale 5-4. Down to the last three at-bats of the game, the Jayhawks faced a 5-1 deficit. Following a leadoff walk of senior Maggie Hull and a throwing error that allowed Hugo to reach base, Brickey hit a single to load the bases. A fielding error on the Baylor catcher allowed two runs to score narrowing the gap to 5-3. Kansas senior infielder Mariah Montgomery then stepped to the plate and hit an RBI single that scored Brickey and moved the game tying run to third base. Baylor junior pitcher Whitney Canion collected herself and struck out the next batter to end the game. Fluky plays and bad defense were the story of the series finale; of the nine runs scored in the game, only four of them were earned runs.
"Defensively, we have to be stronger than that," Smith said. "We have been all year. This weekend, we lost our minds defensively and just didn't play the game we normally do. That's the frustrating part."
The Jayhawks leave the series against Baylor with a 30-15 record and a 5-7 record in conference play. The Jayhawks will host Wichita State on Wednesday for just one game.

Mountaineers sweep Jayhawks in weekend series
tgraff@kansan.com
TREVOR GRAFF
Kansas baseball suffered what might be the worst weekend of its season when the Mountainainers recorded a series sweep of the Jayhawks in Beckley, W.Va.
The Jayhawks learned firsthand the volatility of the Big 12 baseball standings. After losing all three games in the weekend series by a single run, Kansas slipped from second place in the conference to a tie for fifth place with the Oklahoma State Cowboys.
"It's as frustrating a weekend as I've ever had on a baseball

played well defensively outside of maybe two miscues, and unfortunately those miscues cost us the ball games."
"He pitched really well," Price said. "He was as good as advertised. We had a couple of opportunities to score and Musgrave punched us out. They managed to score the run and Musgrave was the story of the game."
The Kansas lineup faced a hot hand in sophomore left-handed pitcher Harrison Musgrave on Friday nigl.t. The Mountaineers' ace threw a complete game shutout giving up four hits and striking out five lavawk hitters.
senior right fielder Brady Wilson that scored sophomore shortstop Taylor Munden.
The Jayhawks played a double-header to finish the series Saturday. In game one, Kansas once again lost by a single run at the hands of the Mountaineers' senior right-handed pitcher Dan Dierdorf. Kansas' sophomore left-handed pitcher Wes Benjamin pitched a complete game
loss giving up four runs, one of which was earned, with three strikeouts in 106 pitches.
The Jayhawks lost 4-3 in game two.

before facing sophomore lefthanded pitcher John Means in a 3-2 loss to seal the weekend sweep for the Mountaineers.
Kansas junior right-handed Frank Duncan made his return to the rotation in game three. The junior was sent to the rotation after struggling in the middle of the season. Against the Mountaineers, Duncan pitched seven innings with three strikeouts giving up a lone earned run in 72 pitches.
Benjamin
Duncan knows better than most of the Kansas roster what it means to bounce back from the tribulations of Big 12 conference play.
"The biggest thing was being a team player and just trying to help the team win no matter what it took," Duncan said. "The move kind of sent a message to me from the coaches that I needed to get my act together and figure it out. I think that lesson has
been learned and I hope to pitch well for the rest of the season."
The Jayhawks won't have much time to spend in recuperation from this weekend's sweep. The Wichita State Shockers travel to Lawrence for a Tuesday night midweek matchup against the Jayhawks. The Shockers are tied for second with a 10-4 record in the Missouri Valley Conference.
For Kansas, regrouping is key.
"Anytime you get swept, especially in the Big 12, it really puts some pressure on you," Duncan said. "It stings a little bit, but you have to flush it and get ready for the next team. I think we'll be playing with a chip on our shoulder. They're an instate rival. We're going to be fired up for it, trying to get that bitter taste out of mouth from last weekend."
As much as coach Price has instilled the never-look-back mindset in this layhawk squad, flushing the series may not be as easy as the players make it sound.
"That's our first devastating weekend in conference after winning three series in a row", coach Price said. "We have to be mature and we have to be professional. In all honesty, it's not that easy. It's going to take the best effort of our coaching staff. It is going to take the best effort of our upperclassmen to flush last week."
Kansas' first pitch against the Shockers is set for 6 p.m. Tuesday at Hogglund Ballpark.

TRIVIA OF THE DAY
THE MORNING BREW 49ers, Bills on top of draft; Chiefs, Cowboys fall short
This isn't the year of the quarterback in the NFL draft. Nor is it the year of the running back or the wide receiver. This time around, the big guys dominated the first round of the draft. Tackles, linebacks and guards were the dominant players in the first round. This year's draft was nothing spectacular compared to the past few years.
Every year, as fans and critics, we evaluate how our favorite teams did in the draft. Some teams do better than others in selections, but no matter what, we stand by our teams. With that in mind, here is my view of the winners and losers of this year's draft.
By Michael Portman
mportman@kansan.com
WINNERS:
San Francisco 49ers. In the first round, they selected Eric Reid, a safety from LSU, adding on to the multitalented team they currently field. In the second round, they selected defensive end Cornellius Carradine, also known as "Tank." His nickname is self-explanatory. But the most interesting story to come from the 49ers' draft was probably their decision to draft Marcus Lattimore from South
Carolina. Lattimore suffered a gruesome knee injury in a game last season, thus ending his college career. He was considered one of the top picks for the draft before the injury. If he fully recovers, he will be filled with emotion and motivation to play that much better. I would give them an A-.
Buffalo Bills: I like the Bills' draft choices. I think E.J. Manuel from Florida State is a much wiser pick than Geno Smith at the quarterback position. I can see him being much more successful in his football career. In the third round, the Bills drafted Marquise Goodwin out of Texas. Goodwin is a speedy receiver, as he is also a track athlete. I watched him win state titles in high school track, and
at Texas, he was one of the better receivers on the football team. This guy is quick, and if he can prove himself, he'll make sure opponents see how dangerous he is. The Bills get a B+.
LOSERS:
Kansas City Chiefs: Yes, you read that correctly. The hometown Chiefs are one of the losers of this year's draft. Instead of going with the popular choice in Luke Joeckel for the first pick in the whole draft, they chose Eric Fisher from Central Michigan. Wait, from where? Exactly. Fisher is a decent outside tackle, but to go No. 1 overall and to come from a conference that doesn't have top football programs, there is something wrong here. Then they traded up their second round pick only to pick a tight end from Cincinnati in the third round. The Chiefs deserve a grade of C- only because they got the first pick.
KU
Dallas Cowboys: What was Jerry Jones thinking? I guarantee Cowboys fans around the country were not happy with the team's choices in the first two rounds. They picked positions that did
not need to be replaced. They somewhat made up for it by getting a wide receiver and a safety in the third round. They get a C.
The draft was filled with surprises and lots of unknown players. Now that the draft is over, let's see how teams can adjust with their new acquisitions.

The Kansas tennis team advanced past the first round of the Big 12 Tournament for the first time in five years this weekend. The Jayhawks beat Iowa State for the second time in a week when the teams met in Norman, Okla. Kansas' season ended with
Two weeks ago, Kansas was 0-7 in the Big 12 with only two games left in the regular season. The team won both games and kept the momentum going long enough to do something that no player on this team had been a part of: ISU.
Doubles play had been the barometer for the jayhawks success
as the team entered the Big 12 Tournament. Nothing changed Thursday as Kansas won two of the three doubles matches. The Kansas duo of senior Victoria Khanevskaya and freshman Anastasija Trubica was able to get a win on senior night against ISU, as well as on

Friday's match started on an odd note when singles play began first because of inclement weather in the forecast for later in the day. Kansas usually uses doubles play to get the momentum going early in matches, so having to jump right into singles play might have been a contributing factor in the loss.
The win on Thursday propelled the jayhaws into a match with No. 1 seed Baylor. Unfortunately for Kansas, no streaks were extended or started on Friday. Baylor won 4-0 to end the spring season for Kansas.
The layhawks ended on a positive note by earning a win on senior night and advancing to the quarterfinals of the Big 12 Tournament. Finishing the spring season with a record of 11-10 overall and 2-7 in conference play is a little discouraging after being nationally ranked for part of the season, but with the freshmen on the team playing at a high level, next year's expectations are mounting.

Pirates defeat Cardinals take lead in NL Central
ST. LOUIS — Rookie Jeff Locke pitched seven innings of three-hit ball and Russell Martin had two of Pittsburgh's four home runs in a 9-0 victory over the St. Louis Cardinals on Sunday that gave the Pirates a series win and the NL Central lead.
Jones had three hits and John McDonald added an RBI double for Pittsburgh, which ended rookie Shelby Miller's streak
of 14 scoreless innings at home to start the season. The Pirates have won nine of 12 overall, leapfrogging St. Louis for first place.

Locke (3-1) has worked 13 scoreless innings while allowing five hits his last two starts. The Cardinals got just three singles and advanced two runners into scoring position against the 25-year-old left-hander, who earned the fifth spot in the rotation with a strong spring.
Miller (3-2) struggled to put away hitters and was taken out after 113 pitches and giving up two homers in 5 2-3 innings. He struck out seven, one off his season best, and was charged with three runs after John McDonald greeted Fernando Salas with a bloop RBI double.

Martin hit his fourth homer with a 412-foot drive to straightaway center in the second. He doubled off the right-field fence in the fourth for his fourth straight extra-base hit, two of them homers, then added a two-run shot to cap a five-run ninth.

Boston Celtics center Kevin Garnett, pulls down an offensive rebound against three New York Knicks players during the first half in game four of a first-round NBA playoff series in Boston on Sunday.
Celtics avoid a sweep, force fifth game in New York
ASSOCIATED PRESS
BOSTON — Jason Terry's nose still hurt; he wasn't about to let his pride suffer as well.
Two days after being smacked by J.R. Smith's elbow, the guard the Boston Celtics count on for his shooting scored their last nine points and kept their season going.
The NBA suspended Smith for the game; the Knicks could have used his shooting. Carmelo Anthony scored 36 points, and Raymond Felton picked up the slack with 27, but New York made just 28.9 percent of its shots in the first half as Boston took a 54-35 lead.
"It wasn't really the elbow," he said. "It was more (like) this is it. I mean, the season's over. You can leave it all out here tonight and go home for a long summer, or you can live to play another day."
"J.R. is a big piece of what we do, but he wasn't here," Knicks coach Mike Woodson said. "I'm not using that as an excuse."
The Celtics beat the Knicks 97-90 in overtime Sunday to avoid a first-round sweep and force a fifth game in New York on Wednesday. Avoiding elimination provided all the motivation Terry needed.
New York had tied the game 84-84 after trailing by 20 points early in the third quarter. It was 88-all before the Celtics regained control and took the lead for good on a 3-pointer by Terry. Anthony hit a short jumper, but Terry connected on a 15-footer with 50 seconds remaining on a 93-90 lead.
After Anthony, who shot 10 for 35 for the game, missed a 3-pointer with 21 seconds to go. Terry was fouled by Steve Novak and made both free throws. He added a layup to close out the game.
But the Celtics still have a huge deficit in trying to become the first team to win after trailing a series 3-0 in the NBA playoffs. The Knicks are trying to win their first playoff series in 13 years.
"We have to be confident going back home," Anthony said. "We were confident here today."
Paul Pierce led the Celtics with 29 points, Jeff Green added 26 and Terry finished with 18.
"This is the first time that we really came out with fire in our eyes," Terry said. "Every game from here on is Game 7 for us."

LPGA
Women's tournament ends with shocking finale in Texas

Carla Ciganda of Spain watches her tee shot on the 10th hole during the final round of the North Texas LPGA Shootout golf tournament Sunday at Los Colinas Country Club in Irving, Texas.
IRVING, Texas — Inbee Park shot a bogey-free 4-under 67 on Sunday to win the inaugural North Texas LPGA Shootout by a stroke over Carlota Ciganda, whose chance for a first LPGA victory was wiped out in a two-hole stretch.
Park, the world's No. 1 women's player, finished at 13-under 271 for her third victory this season and fifth in her last 18 starts. The 24-year-old South Korean sank a 4-foot birdie putt on the par-5 18th after Ciganda also birdied the hole even after a drive into the right rough.
After starting the day two strokes behind Ciganda, Park went ahead to stay with pars on Nos. 14 and 15, where her playing partner ran into trouble. Ciganda had bogey and double bogey on those holes, part of her 70.

Fifth-ranked Suzann Pettersen from Norway, the winner in Hawaii last week, had a closing 62 to get to 10 under and finish third. Hee Young Park (64) and So Yeon Ryu (68) tied for fourth at 275.
Ciganda matched the world's top player shot for short on air.
They both had birdies at the 403-yard 8th hole, where Park knocked hers in before Ciganda, who responded with a slight fist pump when her ball dropped into the cup. They both had pars at No. 9, where Park was closer to the hole even though she was missed the green to the left, and they traded birdies again at the par-5 10th.
Everything turned in a two-hole stretch.
Ciganda's drive at the 416-yard 14th hole settled in the right rough with a tree between her and the green, and her shot from about 130 yards clipped a branch and came up short. She had a chance to save par, but her 6-foot putt was short.
The approach by Park was on line, and the second bounce on the green was near the hole before rolling away. Park saved par with two putts, staying at 12 under and getting within a stroke of the lead that was hers for good after the next hole.
After stepping away from her approach at No.15, to a green surrounded by water on three sides, Ciganda then hit a shot that went to the right and then rolled down into the water. Ciganda had to go back to a drop zone, where the 22-year-old Spaniard had a decent pitch before her first putt rolled over the left edge of the green for a double bogey.
Another two-putt par by Park put her in the lead to stay.
With the $195,000 check for first place, Park exceeded $6 million in career earnings and will be No. 1 for the third week in a row.
Caroline Masson had a 75 and finished eight shots back. The LPGA Tour rookie from Germany led after each of the first two rounds and started the final round tied for second with Park.
Hee Young Parks 64 was the best round of the day on the 649-yard.
course with plenty of sloping fairways and raised greens. When Park finished her round, the South Korean was 9 under and alone in third behind Ciganda and Inbee Park.
Stacy Lewis, the Texas native and No. 2 player in the world, had a
closing 66 when all six birdies and her only bogey came between Nos. 7-17. She tied for seventh for her sixth top-10 finish this season.
At the end of her round, Lewis signed the back brace of a 6-year-old Dallas girl who was diagnosed
with scoliosis at 18 months old. Lewis wore a similar brace 18 hours a day for seven years after being diagnosed with scoliosis at age 11 and missed her first collegiate season after a spinal fusion.
Third-ranked Na Yeon Choi.
among the four players tied for seventh, had 44 consecutive bogey-free holes and was 9 under before consecutive bogeys at Nos. 10-12. She went on to finish a round of 72.

Royals take Indians by surprise in doubleheader
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Jeremy Guthrie kept the Indians off-balance, Alcides Escobar and Alex Gordon homered and the Kansas City Royals routed Cleveland 9-0 on Sunday to open the first day-night doubleheader in the history of Kaufman Stadium.
The doubleheader was caused by a rainstorm Friday night.
1. ___
Guthrie (3-0) allowed six hits over six 2-3 innings for his 16th consecutive start without a loss, tying the Royals' record set by Paul Splittorff from Aug. 13, 1977 to April 22, 1978.
Escobar's solo shot came in the fifth inning and Gordon's two-run homer came in the eighth, capping a big day for the Kansas City offense. Jarrod Dyson also drove in a pair of runs, and Mike Moustakas had a single and three walks — one with the bases loaded.
Justin Masterson (4-2) allowed seven runs in six 1-3 innings for the Indians. The right-hander, who entered the game with a 1.85 ERA, was trying to join Bob Lemon, Greg Swindell and Cliff Lee as the only pitchers in franchise history with five wins in April.
Instead, Masterson got roughed up by the bottom of the Royals' lineup. He walked Moustakas, who was hitting just 1.52, on four pitches with two outs in the second Jeff Francoeur and Dyson followed with back-to-back doubles to give Kansas City a 2-1 lead.
Masterson threw four more balls to the struggling Moukatsak in the fourth
eight straight pitches without a strike. This time, Francoeur and Dyson added singles for a 3-10 lead.
Escobar homered on the first pitch he saw in the fifth inning. The solo shot just skirted the foul pole in left field, landing in the seats for a memorable 500th career hit.
The Royals blew the game open in the seventh when Chris Getz singled leading off the inning, and Gordon added a base hit. Escobar's grounder made it 5-0, and a walk by Billy Butter and Eric Hosmer's RBI single finally knocked Masterson from the game.
Moustakas' bases-loaded walk made it 7-0, and Gordon's two-run shot off Scott Barnes in the eighth punctured the scoring for the light-hitting Royals.
The closest Guthrie came to allowing
a run came in the second inning.
Carlos Santana sent a drive to center that hit off the green padding atop the wall. The ball bounced back into play and was ruled a double, and the call was upheld when the umpires checked the replay. Santana was left stranded when Guthrie retired Ryan Raburn and Lonnie Chisenhall.

Jayhawks find NFL draft success in a hopeless season
FARZIN VOUSOUGHIAN fvousougian@kansan.com
TANNER HAWKINSON DRAFTED BY BENGALS
Former Kansas left tackle Tanner Hawkinson was drafted in the fifth round, 156th overall, in the 2013 NFL draft Saturday afternoon by the Cincinnati Bengals.
"I was expecting to have my name called sometime today, but I was surprised it came that early," Hawkinson said. "It was a really good phone call to get. It is a big relief to get this part of the process over with and know where I will be playing. I am very excited to get to Cincinnati and get to work."
Scouts said Hawkinson can bring versatility and has experience playing right and left offensive tackle spots.
Hawkinson is the first Kansas player to be drafted since the 2010 NFL draft. Former Kansas wide receiver Dezmon Briscoe was drafted the sixth round, coincidentally by the Bengals in 2010.
Hawkinson joins former Jayhawk Anthony Collins in Cincinnati, who was drafted in the fourth round by the Bengals in the 2008 NFL draft.
During his time as a Jayhawk, Hawkinson started 48 straight games, the most consecutive starts by a player in Kansas history.
He earned All-Big 12 Second Team honors from the conference's coaches, the Associated Press, Phil Steele Magazine and the San Antonio Express News in 2012.
BRADLEY MCDOUGALD SIGNS WITH CHIEFS
Former Kansas safety Bradley McDougald went undrafted in this weekend's NFL draft, but signed with the Kansas City Chiefs after the draft concluded. The news first broke on Twitter when McDougald announced he joined the Chiefs.
"Just agreed to a free agent deal with the KC Chiefs," McDougald said on Twitter. "Thank you for all the love and support, time to go to work!"
McDougald joins a brand-new Chiefs staff, which includes head coach Andy Reid and defensive coordinator Bob Sutton. He will have an opportunity to play behind safeties Kendrick Lewis and two-time Pro Bowler Eric Berry.
The Columbus, Ohio native collected three interceptions for 63 yards as a senior and finished his collegiate career with seven interceptions for 189 yards.
McDougald earned Second Team All-Big 12 honors by the league's coaches, Third Team All-
Big 12 by Phil Steele Magazine and All-Big 12 Honorable Mention by the Associated Press.
GREG BROWN SIGNED BY CHARGERS
Former Kansas cornerback Greg Brown signed with the San Diego Chargers after going undrafted in this weekend's NFL draft.
Brown will be coached by head coach Mike McCoy and will be under John Pagano's defense in the spring and summer. Brown has a chance to compete in training camp to play for a spot on the 53-man roster.
Brown will also be joining cornerback Steve Williams, who was drafted from California in the fifth round of the draft. Another notable draftere Brown joins on the Chargers' defense is linebacker Manti Teo, who was drafted in the second round out of Notre Dame.
DAYNE CRIST AND TOBEN OPURUM RECEIVE INVITATIONS
After McDougald became the first Jayhawk to sign with the Chiefs, two more former Jayhawks followed his footsteps to Kansas City.
Crist will be behind quarterbacks Alex Smith, Chase Daniel, Ricky Stanzi and Alex Tanney. The Chiefs acquired Smith in a trade with the 49ers and signed Daniel this offseason. Stanzi and Tanney are backups and have yet to take a snap in a regular season game.
Kansas quarterback Dayne Crist and defensive end Toben Opurum, both captains for Kansas in 2012, received an invite to Kansas City's mini-camp.
Crist transferred from Notre Dame after the 2011 season and earned another year of eligibility, allowing him to play one more season. In his only season with Kansas, Crist threw for 1,313 yards, four touchdowns and one interception.

Edited by Elise Reuter
Opurum will likely participate as an outside linebacker under Kansas City's 3-4 defensive scheme. He'll work behind Tamba Hali and Justin Houston, both of whom played in the Pro Bowl this past year.
Despite struggling in 2012, Crist impressed scouts in the NFLPA Collegiate Bowl. Crist completed seven of 10 passes, including one for a touchdown, and also ran for a touchdown. His performance earned him the MVP of the game.

Price argues with umpire in victory over White Sox
ANSAN or-

CHICAGO - David Price had more problems with the home plate umpire than he had with the Chicago White Sox.
ASSOCIATED PRESS
ANSAN as
The 2012 American League Cy Young Award winner accused Tom Hallion of using an expletive after price threw his last pitch of his first win of the season, the Tampa Bay Rays' 8-3 victory over the Chicago White Sox on Sunday.
Hallion called Price a liar.
Facing his last batter of the game in the seventh inning, Price took a step toward the dugout after he thought he threw strike three to Dewayne Wise. After Price retired Wise on a comebacker, Price and Hallion exchanged words as Price walked to the dugout.
Hallion vehemently denied Price's claim.
"I'll come right out bluntly and say he's a liar," Hallion told a pool reporter. "I said, 'just throw the ball.' That's all I said to him."
Hallion, the crew chief, walked toward Price as the two appeared to be yelling at each other. "It was a perfect pitch. It is. I really don't know why he (Wise) swung at the next one, because it was in the exact same spot," Price said. "I'm walking off the mound I'm just mad at myself. I didn't say a single word or look at him. He (Hallion) yells at me."
Price disagreed and teammate Jeremy Hellickson, standing along the dugout railing, did as well. Hellickson was tossed after shouting at Hallion from the dugout.
"My own dad doesn't speak to me that way." Price added.
ANSAN
"He was told to knock it off, him and Morse (Matt Moore) were at the dugout rail and I told them to knock it off," Hallion said, "and he thought it was OK for him to have his final comment, at which time he was ejected."
Rays manager Joe Maddon was surprised that the mild-mannered Hellickson was thrown out even though Maddon didn't hear the exchange.
"He's one of the most vociferous players on our team. He finally had an umpire get him," Maddon
joked. "It definitely led to the victory. Everybody was pumped up at that point."
Price took to Twitter afterward to continue to press his point.
"1. I am not a liar 2. I would not make that stuff up 3. My own dad doesn't speak to me that way 4. Again I am not a liar (hash)accountability" he tweeted.
The postgame spat overshadowed a fine performance for Price. He allowed three runs and six hits, striking out nine in seven innings. The Rays lost all five of Price's five previous starts this year and were the second team to lose in the first five starts by a reigning Cy Young winner. The Minnesota Twins lost in Frank Viola's first seven games in 1989.
Price (1-2) walked two and threw 119 pitches but finally he got support from his offense.
After Hellickson was ejected, the Rays rallied in the eighth. Ben Zobrist hit a go-ahead RBI single in a three-run innning spurred by Alex Rios' error.
Jose Lobaton and Matt Joyce each homered for Tampa Bay, which improved to 4-9 on the road. Paul Konerko hit a two-run home run for Chicago, who are 1-5 against lefthanded starters.
T
Sean Rodriguez led off the eighth with a single off White Sox reliever Nate Jones (0-2) and advanced to second on a wild pitch. One out later, he scored on Zobrist's single to break a 3-all tie. With two outs and bases loaded, Ryan Roberts hit a shallow fly to right, Rios came charging in, but he had the ball pop out of his glove, allowing two runs to score and giving the Rays a 6-3 lead.
"It's one of those things that are going to happen occasionally, but if we're going to get on an extended run of playing well you got to make those plays," said White Sox manager Robin Ventura.
White Sox starter Dylan Axelrod allowed three runs and four hits in six innings. He struck out three and walked one, but he was doomed by the home runs from Lobaton and Joyce.

Kershaw and Crawford carry Dodgers to win against Brewers
ASSOCIATED PRESS
LOS ANGELES — Clayton Kershaw retired 18 consecutive batters and struck out 12 in eight dominant innings, Carl Crawford homered twice against Kyle Lohse and the Los Angeles Dodgers beat the Milwaukee Brewers 2-0 on Sunday.
Kershaw (3-2) scattered four hits and didn't walk a batter while lowering his ERA to 1.73. The 2011 Cy Young Award winner, who led theNL in ERA in each of the previous two seasons, hasn't allowed more than three earned runs in any of his last 18 starts — the longest active streak in the majors. The last time he did was July 24, 2012, when he gave up eight at St. Louis.
Kershaw stranded runners in scoring position in each of the first
two innings, retiring Jonathan Lucroy on a double-play grounder in the first and striking out Martin Maldonado to end the second. He gave up a leadoff double in the eighth to Carlos Gomez, who tried to advance on a broken-bat comebacker to Kershaw and was tagged out by third baseman Juan Uribe in a rundown.
Kershaw's string of consecutive outs began after Rickie Weeks' bloop double leading off the second.
Milwaukee's only other hits were one-out singles in the first by Jean Segura and Ryan Braun.
Kershaw began the season with 4-0 and 1-0 wins over San Francisco and Pittsburgh, allowing no runs over 16 innings.
Brandon League pitched a perfect ninth inning for his eighth save in
Crawford drove Lohse's first pitch of the game over the center field fence. It was the fourth time that the right-hander gave up a home run to his first batter in 336 career starts — and the first one that came on his very first pitch. Crawford's second homer came on an 0-2 count and landed in the right field pavilion. It was his sixth multihomer game in the majors and first since July 8, 2010, for the Tampa Bay Rays against Cleveland's lake Westbrook.
nine chances.
Lohse (1-2) gave up five hits and no walks while striking out four. The 13-year veteran had allowed only one home run in 25 innings over his first four starts for the Brewers, who signed him to a three-year, $33 million contract as a free agent on March 25.

Athletics best Orioles in comeback
ASSOCIATED PRESS
OAKLAND, Calif. — Third baseman Manny Machado made a throwing error on a bunt in the 10th inning and the Oakland Athletics completed their comeback, beating the Baltimore Orioles 9-8 Sunday.
Down 5-0 in the sixth, the As tied it at 8 on Yoenis Cespedes' two-run homer with one out in the ninth. He was activated from the disabled list before the game after being out with a strained muscle in his left hand.
The Athletics ended a four-game
losing streak and prevented Balti more from a four-game sweep.
Eric Sogard hit a leadoff single in the 10th and moved to second when reliever Pedro Strop (0-1) made a wide throw to second on Adam Rosales' bunt. Coco Crisp followed with a sacrifice bunt and Machado threw wildly past to shortstop J.J. Hardy covering third, allowing Sogard to score with a headfirst dive.
Chris Davis hit his team-leading ninth home run, a solo shot in the eighth that put Baltimore ahead 7-6. Machado added an RBI double in the ninth.
Nate McLouth, who scored four times, and Machado each had four hits for the Orioles.
Seth Smith also homered for Oakland. Crisp had two hits and scored twice and Josh Donaldson drove in two runs.
Baltimore was trying for its first four-game sweep at the Coliseum since 1987. The Orioles lost for just the fourth time in 13 games.

Heat achieve first sweep in Big 3 era, beat Bucks 88-77
ASSOCIATED PRESS
MILWAUKEE — LeBron James can cross another item off his to-do list.
James scored 30 points, Ray Allen had another big game against his old team and the Miami Heat got their first playoff sweep in the Big Three era, advancing to the Eastern Conference semifinals with an 88-77 victory over the Milwaukee Bucks on Sunday.
"It was our next big step as far as our growth," James said. "It's so hard to win on the road in the playoffs, in someone's building — especially when someone is playing for their last life. It's a big step for us."
And now the Heat have some much-needed time to rest. Dwyane Wade sat out Sunday's game, only the second post-season game he's missed in his career, because of his aching right knee. But with Miami not playing until next Saturday, at the earliest, he'll have plenty of time to treat the three bone bruises that caused him to miss six games near the end of the regular season.
Miami plays the winner of the Brooklyn-Chicago series. The Bulls lead that series 3-1, with Game 5 on Monday night in New York.
"it's big," Wade said of the time off. "Obviously, we're one of the oldest teams in the league, maybe the oldest team in terms of rotation players. Guys have some bumps and bruises coming out of this series, so it's going to be great to get some rest. But also we have to take this time to continue to stay sharp, to continue to stay in shape as well."
Judging by the clinical way in which the Heat dissected the Bucks in this series, that isn't likely to be a problem.
The defending NBA champions won each game by double digits, getting contributions from their stars and subs alike. Allen finished with 16 points, the third time in the series he scored in double figures, and was of 4 force from 3-point range.
Udonis Haslem added 13 points and five rebounds, and Mario Chalmers kicked in eight rebounds and six assists for Miami, which never trailed Sunday.
"They had the whole package," Bucks coach Jim Boylan said. "When you can afford to sit guy like Dwyane Wade and perform at the level they performed at, that's a championship-caliber team."
Monta Ellis led the Bucks with 21 points, and Larry Sanders had 11 rebounds to go with seven points.
But Milwaukee got almost nothing again from Brandon Jennings, who didn't even play in the fourth quarter. Jennings, who had guaranteed the Bucks would win the series in six games, finished with three points on 1-of-7 shooting.
After scoring 26 points in game one, Jennings had 27 total in the final three.
"Frustrated, a little down because I came into this season with so much confidence," he said. "I thought we had a chance to steal a game in game one, game 2. We let that slip away from us. Game three, we came back home. Had a 10-point lead, lost that. I mean it's frustration all around."

Vinyl records experience rising popularity among modern college students

Chas Strobel collects records not only for listening, but also for decoration. Strobel, a transfer student from Orono, Minn., grew up listening to his parents' vinyls. From his mom's Donny Osmond album to recordings of his dad's teenage band, Strobel said the look and feel of a shiny black vinyl takes him back to his childhood.

"People are getting into it for more reasons than just listening," Strobel said.
He first started collecting albums from concerts he would go to, but being a busy college student, Strobel said he can't really go to shows anymore. Artists would not only sell black vinyls at shows, but also colored ones such as purple or even clear.

Love Garden Sounds is a local record store that opened in 1990. Located at 822 Massachusetts St., the store has about 200 regulars who visit once a month and about 40 to 50 customers who stop in every week.

"There are more people of a college age who care about vinyl records," Corcoran said. "But there are more folks of a college age who specifically don't think of buying a physical format the first time they want to hear something."
"Records are about the ceremony and the interaction with the music," Corcorcan said. "It comes in a way that's more valuable than the idea of the sound being intensely superior."
Corcorican said that records are not entirely a better fidelity of audio than a digital format, but in a peak environment with the most expensive player, people can hear the difference.
Exclusive records are released
on National Record Day, which falls on the third Saturday of every April.
People started lining up at 7 p.m. the night before Love Garden Sounds opened to get exactly what they were waiting for. Some of the store's hot items were a White Stripes' "Elephant" reissue in a special color and Sleep's album "Donesmoker."
The physical aspect of the music draws people toward buying a record over downloading a file from iTunes. Strobel said when someone buys a record, they have the entire work of art.
"It's like reading a book," Strobel said. "When you have a record, you can't skip around tracks; you have to listen to the whole thing."

Jeeve's dance style is fusion, blending Indian dance moves with American music and vice versa. They combine styles of northern and southern Indian dance with hip hop and many other dance styles.
Jeeve is the University's first South Asian Fusion Dance Team, and luckily for dance enthusiasts, the group is holding a dance workshop today in the Gridiron room of the Burge Union from 7:30 to 8:30 p.m.
The workshop is free and open to anyone. The members of Jeeva will be teaching a dance for beginners.

Student named Truman Scholar
EMMA LEGAULT
elegault@kansan.com
It's easy to brag about your accomplishments and achievements, especially if you've just gained national recognition and $30.000.
However, Hannah Sitz, a junior from Andover and the University's
17th Truman Scholar, isn't used to the spotlight yet. The Harry S. Truman Scholarship is an award given to a student looking to pursue a career in the public sector, something Sitz is passionate about; she hopes to eventually become an executive director of a human services nonprofit organization.
Sitz
She was inspired to apply after taking a course in citizen philanthropy and attending an information session about the scholarship last year. The first step was a written application for a nomination through the University, which can nominate up to four students per year.
"The whole day afterward, you sit there while everyone else is interviewing, and you just overanalyze everything you just said," she said. "And by the end of the day, you've convinced yourself that you didn't win."
However, after telling herself for a month that she didn't win, Sitz had the surprise of her life at a University Honors Program reception on April 7.
Although she got the interview over with early in the day, Sitz said waiting was stressful.
"It got me out of my comfort zone to practice for these interviews, to explain what I've done and brag about myself, which I'm not used to doing." she said.
After preparing and editing the rest of the scholarship application materials, which required Sitz to tell her life story in essay questions, she was notified by email that she had advanced to the national competition. After a week and a half of mock interviews, she was confident going into the regional interview in Kansas City, Mo., on March 7.
With her mother and sister in the audience, it was officially revealed that Sitz had been named a Truman Scholar. To Sitz's surprise, Chancellor Bernadette Gray-Little was also in attendance to congratulate her.
Those who helped Sitz prepare for the interview told her she was too humble, both in the application and the interview processes.
Sitz had the opportunity to thank
faculty members and others who helped her along the way. She said she was also grateful to make an impression on potential students who were also at the reception.
Sitz said reality has taken a while to sink in.
"It felt very surreal, kind of dream-like," she said.
Although it's a reality now, the process of becoming a Truman Scholar was rocky. Sitz revealed that after reviewing the "policy proposal" section of the application requiring applicants to propose a piece of legislation, she had almost talked herself out of it.
Anne Wallen, the coordinator for national scholarships through the University Honors Program, knew Sitz had a good shot at winning and encouraged her to continue.
"She's just a natural leader. She buys into things and doesn't second-guess herself," Wallen said. "She's very genuine and honest and excited about helping people find out about public service, and that's really the point of the Truman Scholarship is to honor students and help students who help to be leaders in public service."
"It's just really great to be validated in such a large way for the hard work that I do and have done for years," she said. "The validation that I'm on the right path, that I'm doing the right stuff, that I am making a difference and that this will enable me to continue to do that is just beyond thrilling."
Sitz's passion and interest in nonprofit work started in her hometown. She volunteered in high school, including working for the Lord's Diner soup kitchen.
POLITICS
"I grew up in a community, in a church, in a family that really emphasized that if you've been given a lot, you need to give back, that it's kind of your responsibility to look beyond yourself," Sitz said. "That's where I really find meaning in my own life is that if I can use what I have been given to impact someone else, then I feel like I have a purpose."
Participating in campus organizations such as Alternative Breaks, where she currently holds a director position, has confirmed for Sitz that she's on the right path. She hopes to attend Indiana University at Bloomington to pursue a Master of Public Affairs degree in the School of Public and Environmental Affairs.
State representatives will participate in forum
The opportunity to attend virtually any graduate studies program in the country without debt is a big burden lifted, Sitz said, especially in a field that doesn't pay handsomely.

As the Kansas Legislature recently passed legislation allowing concealed-carry permits on campus and is now considering cutting funding to higher education, students will have a chance to engage five state representatives in an open forum this evening.
The first half hour will consist of Sen. Marci Francisco, D-Lawrence; Rep. Barbara Bollier, R-Mission Hills; Rep. Stephanie Clayton, R-Overland Park; Rep. Melissa Rooker, R-Fairway, and Rep. John Wilson, D-Lawrence, discussing issues regarding higher education.

HANNAH BARLING hbarling@kansan.com
Daniel M. Mayeux, a faculty member of the KU Office of Design and Construction Management, passed away at his home April 15. The cause of death has not been released.
Mayeux was born Dec. 15, 1957,
in Bad Hersfeld, Germany.
His parents were Donald and Sally
Ann Elizabeth Mayeux. His father was a U.S. Army serviceman stationed in Germany, and his family moved to the U.S. after his birth.
Mayex lived in Elizabethtown, Ky., until he joined the Army in 1978. He was an enlisted private first class metal worker. He earned the name of Marksman while he was stationed at Fort Sill, Okla., and was honorably discharged in 1979.
The University Facilities and Operations hired Mayeux in 1990. He worked in the electrical shop then transferred to the construction shop. He joined the KU Construction group, which was formed in 2012, where he worked

worked with Mayeux for more than 15 years. He said Mayeux was very entertaining and a good worker. He said Mayeux made work easier for some people because he was light hearted.
"He was a happy-go-lucky guy," Rawlings said. "He would shrug things off that would bother others."
"The people miss him not being around now." Rawlings said.
First thing in the morning Mayeux would spark interesting conversation and set a good mood for everyone, Rawlings said.

Metal aircraft part from 9/11 believed to be from wing
ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK — The rusted metal aircraft part believed to be from one of the hijacked jetliners that slammed into the World Trade Center in the Sept. 11 attacks came from a wing, not landing gear, police said Monday.
The 5-foot piece is a trailing edge flap support structure, police said. It is located closer to the body of the plane and helps secure wing flaps that move in and out and aid in regulating plane speed. Investigators initially thought it was part of the landing gear because both pieces have similar-looking hydraulics.
Boeing officials told police the part came from one of its 767 airliners, but it isn't possible to determine which flight. Both hijacked planes that struck the towers, American Airlines Flight 11 and United Airlines Flight 175, were Boeing 767s. American and United had no comment.
Workers discovered the part Wednesday on the ground in a silver of space between a luxury
loft rental building and a mosque that in 2010 prompted virulent national debate about Islam and freedom of speech in part because it's near the trade center site. Other World Trade Center wreckage has been discovered at the buildings and around the area in years past.
Police documented the debris with photos. The twisted metal part — jammed in an 18-inch-wide, trash-laden passageway between the buildings — has cables and levers on it and is about 5 feet high, 17 inches wide and 4 feet long.
An inspector on the roof of the mosque site, which is under construction, noticed the debris and then called 911.
The piece was found with ropes that aren't believed be part of the plane. Police are trying to determine whether someone had tried to lower the piece off the roof at some point in the past, and the ropes snapped or the piece became stuck. There's no indication that the part was planted in the space, said Paul Browne.
chief spokesman for the New York Police Department.
Of the nearly 3,000 victims of the trade center attacks, remains of about 1,000 were never recovered, and sitting the site for possible human remains was to begin Tuesday morning, said the chief medical examiner's spokeswoman, Ellen Borakove. It's not clear how long the process would take, she said.
The area first will be tested as part of a standard health and safety evaluation for possible toxicity, Borakove said.
Police said the part would be moved to a more secure location likely later this week, where a determination will be made about where it will go permanently. In the past, such pieces have been treated as historical artifacts. For example, the New York State Museum in Albany has its collection a large landing gear piece that fell through the roof to the basement at the same location. It was placed there in 2002.
STATE
Committees solve budget differences
ASSOCIATED PRESS
TOPEKA, Kan. — Kansas legislative committees are taking separate paths in trying to solve differences over the state's 2014 budget, and both chambers are hoping to make quick work of lingering issues when lawmakers return to the Statehouse next week.
The House Appropriations Committee met Monday to review spending adjustments required by bills already signed in to law and to receive an update on state revenue estimates. Chairman Marc Rhoades said any decisions made to approve about two dozen spending requests would be included in what he and two other negotiators discuss with Senate counterparts next week.
Rhoades, a Newton Republican, said House leaders didn't want to delay the process by drafting new bills to be debated if talks were still open on the $14 billion state budget.
"They want to get agreements on the budget and taxes and go home." he said.
The Senate, whose budget committee met last Thursday, plans to
have a separate catch-all spending bill on its calendar when it returns, which would have to go to the House for debate.
Rep. Jerry Henry, a Cummins Democrat, said he didn't understand why the house wouldn't want to another spending bill to consider and why GOP leaders would want to limit debate.
"Why do we have a fear of sending a bill to the floor of the people's house," Henry said.
One of the biggest obstacles in the budget talks is how to treat higher education. The House proposes a 4 percent cut in spending while the Senate is seeking a 2 percent reduction.
Both are at odds with Republican Gov. Sam Brownback who has been touring the state urging lawmakers to spare higher education from any cuts. He's asking them to endorse his proposal to keep the state's sales tax rate at 6.3 percent instead of letting fall to 5.7 percent as scheduled in July, giving Kansas about $258 million more in revenue.
Brownback has said he prefers legislators settle the tax negotiations before finalizing the budget.

CAMDEN BENDER editor@kansan.com
When soccer fan RJ Keitchen entered Arrowhead Stadium to see the Wizards play, a massive yet empty stadium met him.
Sporting Kansas City, then known as the Kansas City Wizards, played within the unwilling confines of Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City, Mo. Keitchen watched the game in an atmosphere that carried little character or excitement. The low attendance only seemed magnified against the background of a stadium designed for nearly 80,000 spectators.
Keitchen's next experience with the club took place after the rebranding of the Wizards to Sporting Kansas City and during the club's second home game at Sporting Park in 2011. Keitchen said the difference in atmospheres between
visits was apparent from kick off.
"From that moment on, I was hooked, and the following season, I became a season ticket holder for the first time in my life for any sports team," Keitchen said.
Experiences such as Keitchen's are among the leading reasons for the recent success for teams throughout Major League Soccer. New fans become acclimated to the game in an environment that encourages people's interest in soccer, and further extends the brand in the form of supporter groups throughout the league's clubs.
Following the 2012 regular season, MLS set a record for game attendance for the second consecutive year. According to worldfootball.net, between the 2011 and 2012 seasons, the Portland Timbers and the Sporting Kansas City franchises both saw an average fan attendance increase of more than 8 percent.
Both franchises rely on locally-founded groups for fan support throughout the season.
Garrett Dittfurth, a co-founder of Portland franchise and supporter group Timbers Army, thinks a loud, fun atmosphere during games as well as familiarity with soccer at a young age has increased the game's popularity in younger generations.
"There was a massive energy in the air: the clapping, the cheering, the singing."
RJ KEITCHEN Soccer fan, about his first game at the new Sporting Kansas City Park
"For the most part, people grow up playing the game and like it," Dittfurth said. "As far as the Timbers go, we throw the biggest party
in forport for 90 minutes. Who wouldn't want to be a part of that?"
The Atlantic Wire states MLS recently surpassed both the NBA and the NHL in terms of average attendance per game after the 2012 season. Supporters of Sporting Kansas City say they think the increasing number of supporter groups as well as the completion of a new soccer-specific stadium helped the increase in average attendance for Sporting Kansas City home games.
"During my first game at the new Sporting Park, there was a massive energy in the air; the clapping, the cheering, the singing," Keitchen said, who now is a lead organizer of the Northland Noise supporters group. "It felt like a real sports event being attended by people who really cared and were passionate about the team and the game."
According to ESPN, professional soccer is the second-most popular
sport among Americans aged 12 to 24, trailing only professional football. Ditfurth said he believes recent changes in the increase of soccer popularity with young people in the United States are because of MLS marketing campaigns.
"There is less of a focus on soccer moms and their kids who have virtually no disposable income," Ditturth said. "There is a much larger focus on supporters groups that appeal to younger people with much more disposable income."
The atmosphere of soccer-specific stadiums has attracted younger fans to a newer sport as younger generations begin to choose soccer over more traditional American sports.

High school student shoots himself in class
ASSOCIATED PRESS
CINCINNATI — A student at an all-male parochial high school pulled out a gun in a classroom Monday morning and shot himself in an apparent suicide attempt, police said.
The youth was taken to a hospital with a self-inflicted wound, police said. There apparently was no threat to other students at La Salle High School, a private school west of Cincinnati that was put on lockdown as a precaution, police said.
At around 8 a.m., "a student produced a gun inside one of the classrooms and shot himself, and we're dealing with that now." Green Township Police Chief Bart West told reporters.
West said the student apparently was trying to kill himself, but he
had no other information on why he fired the shot. He said authorities weren't aware of any threats made concerning the school. Authorities said all other students were safe.
Students were gathered in the school gym, and school officials said parents could take their children home if they wanted to.
A school official said counselors were meeting with students, and officials were talking to students to try to learn what had happened.
"We just ask that you pray for him and his family," said Greg Tankersley, La Salle's director of community development. "It's a tragic situation for this young man."
He said he wouldn't release other information about the student at this point.

HUMAN RIGHTS
Feminism a constant learning process
No one is, really, when it comes to navigating systems of oppression. No one is the biggest,
I'm fairly new to the world of feminism. Honestly, I know almost every single article I've put out this year has been about gender, queer rights, rape culture, or about civic engagement as a form of activism. I know that many people who know me personally consider me as their go-to for a feminist perspective on pretty much anything. I know my scholarship hall named me "Most Likely to Get Arrested at a Rally" (which is still on my bucket list). I know I adamantly proclaim myself a feminist, announce it as the top of my lungs, am constantly aware of my politics and of the way I interact with my surroundings because of it. But it's really only in the past couple of years that I've been illuminated to feminism. And I'm not an expert.
baddest feminist on the block, the one who gets it all, the one who has got this trying-to-actively-combat-oppressive-systems thing down pat. Not even Angela Davis is an expert. Not even Beyonce is an expert.
Oh sure, some people are far more illuminated to the reality of how racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, ableism and more intertwine in a throbbing, insidious cancer that dehumanizes. There are tons of feminists and activists who are badass, who try their best to work to combat these systems, who try to make this world a little less awful than they left it. I hope I'm doing that — I do. The thing is. I'm still learning. We never stop learning. Because the day you think you know all there is to know about being a feminist is the day your privilege starts rearing its head.
By Katherine Gwynn
kgwynn@kansw.com
We've all got baggage, and we've all got privilege. Everybody
has some form of privilege, which is often unearned, unasked for and unseen — but it still very much exists. And it affects your day-to-day interactions as well as your activism. I know I have some. And I know some people have far less privilege than others. But everybody has a little bit, if only because humanity has been cruelly creative enough to find innumerable ways to attempt to oppress individuals based on what should be arbitrary characteristics.
What happened to Trayvon Martin was whack, but there were
also tons of people who realized how whack it was. There are people like Dean Saxton, a student at the University of Arizona who last week held up a sign meant for the women on campus scrawled with the words "You Deserve Rape"—but there's also the dude next to him who held a sign saying "No Body Deserves Rape." There are the people who are perhaps never going to "get it" (that "it" being that individuals are not inherently lesser for being of a certain color, gender sexual orientation, etc.). But there are the people who are actively, trying super hard to get it and the majority of the time do.
But you're flawed. I'm flawed.
We're all trying, in so many ways at so many things, in our lives, and feminism is no exception.
We're flawed, so even when we "get it," the majority of the time, we're not going to every single time. Sometimes you're going
to miss why a certain portrayal of a character on TV is racist. Or perhaps see no trouble with a friend calling a gay man "one of the gals" when he might not be OK with it. Or way too many instances that occur day-in and day-out for me to list in an article that has of a cap of 700 words.
We've got to accept that we're going to mess up. And we've got to accept it when people point out that we've messed up. And we've got to own up to that messup, apologize and learn.
You and I will never be experts on feminism. But we can be aware. That way we mess up a little less, learn a little more, and inch even closer to being that big, bad feminist who "gets it" all that we want to be.
Or Beyonce. That'd be cool too.

US needs to address the hunger strike at Guantanamo Bay
Gwynn is a sophomore majoring in English and Women, Gender, and Sexuality from Oathe
T today, between 100 and 130 individuals of the Granantamo Bay fauil
Guantanamo Bay facility are participating in a hunger strike in an attempt to draw much-needed attention to their indefinite detainment. The situation is so dire, and a solution so overdue, that it deserves the serious consideration of every American citizen.
The Guantanamo Bay detention facility opened in 2002 to host captured individuals suspected of membership in terrorist organizations. The Supreme Court ruled in 2006 that detainees must be treated according to the Geneva Conventions, which include protection from torture and the right to a trial. However, in a 2009 Washington Post interview, Susan J. Crawford, a Bush administration appointee, confirmed that interrogators had tortured prisoners. 86 prisoners were cleared for transfer by a 2010 task force, but still remain detained.
By Amanda Gress
agress@kansan.com
Why is Guantanamo still open? In 2009, President Obama signed an executive order to close the facility. Since then, congressional budgetary authority has prevented that order from becoming reality by blocking appropriations for the transfer of detainees - and each time, President Obama has approved the amended defense authorizations. Last March, the military requested $49 million to construct a new prison building on site for high-security prisoners. It's easy to see that those in power have no intention of releasing detainees any time soon.
On Feb. 6, a group of prisoners began a hunger strike to protest their continued indefinite detainment and treatment following a search of Qurans, or
holy books. It is not the first time Guantanamo detainees have refused food (hunger strikes were quite common in 2005 and 2006), but detainees' lawyers claim that this time the individuals show a special kind of desperation. Absent legal recourse or the hope of one day leaving Guantanamo alive, they have decided they prefer not to die quietly in prison. Intentionally starving themselves is their only way to demand attention.
It's unlikely the strike will prove effective. In 2006, military authorities broke an 84-person hunger strike by isolating detainees and utilizing "restraint chairs" to force-feed inmates. Currently, the military reports that 19 inmates are being force-fed, a practice rejected as unethical by the World Medical Association because it violates a patient's right to refuse treatment. Instead, the participating individuals will be kept alive to continue their indefinite detentions.
Earlier this month one detainee, Samir Naji al Hasan Moqbel, starkly described his position in the opinion page of the New York Times. Students – really, all Americans – should read his words, and realize the impossibility of imagining what life as a detainee after more than a decade of imprisonment at Guantánamo would be like. Two prisoners this month attempted suicide. Hunger strikes are a sign of desperation, and force-feeding
denies these individuals even the right to refuse medical treatment or the freedom to protest being held as a prisoner without being charged with a crime.
"I am a human being, not a passport, and I deserve to be treated like one." MooBel wrote.
It is true that those who oppose these human beings the right to live outside of the Guantanamo after a decade of imprisonment without cause can give reasons for their continued detainment. Critics of release can point to rehabilitation's poor track record; 11 previously released prisoners joined al-Qaida after completing rehabilitation, and Yemen's jails are questionably secure. Legally prosecuting those detainees suspected of committing crimes is also tricky, since evidence from interrogations may not be admissible in a U.S. court of law.
Those are valid criticisms, but they're not reasons why legally innocent individuals should be left to die in a military detention center in Cuba. The United States does need to develop a real, comprehensive plan for dealing with the people it has imprisoned – and it needs to do so immediately. Samir Najal al Hasan Mogbel, and others like him, are innocent. The government has agreed he is innocent of any crime and poses no security risk. He should be allowed to return home.
"I just hope that because of the pain we are suffering, the eyes of the world will once again look to Guantanamo before it is too late," Moqbel wrote. If he's right, that attention will be long overdue.

Jayhawks best fit for basketball recruit
Wiggins is down to four schools - Kansas, Kentucky, North Carolina and Florida State. Any of the listed schools would make sense for Wiggins, and his strong family ties to FSU (both of Wiggins' parents played sports there) has been long thought to be the deciding factor in his recruitment. The opportunity to play with a plethora of future NBA talent at UK has Wiggins' attention — not to mention putting Wildcat's coach John Calipari in an all-too-familiar place of blue chip success. Following in Michael Jordan's footsteps at fellow blue-blood program UNC provides Wiggins an opportunity to become the next Tar Heel superstar.
Anyone who knows even a tiny bit about college basketball is well aware of the recruitment of Canadian high school prospect Andrew Wiggins. Those of us who are year-round followers of college hoops - and basketball in general - understand what's at stake for the Jayhawks in this recruiting race. The kid is a freak athlete and could help shape the game of basketball in ways reserved only for basketball royalty. LeBron James was even impressed when he got a firsthand look at Wiggins last year at James' skills camp. Suffice to say that the Jayhawks would propel their national championship chances tremendously were Wiggins to decide to come to Lawrence.
The Jayhawks offer Wiggins something of a unique and circumstantial appeal that the rest of the schools don't - a combination of blue-blood tradition, hefty playing time and a chance to play within the same state as his younger brother, Nick, who plays in Wichita State University. Coach Bill Self routinely puts players in the NBA draft, and the recent rise of sure-to-be top-5 pick in Ben McLemore couldn't have come at a better time. When it comes to landing former
Roque is a senior majoring in journalism from Overland Park
Four schools is a small list, but it's one that features a ton of competition for the Jayhawks. Can we out blue-blood the Tar Heels? Does UK have too much talent for one basketball to go around? And my biggest concern: Can we out-pitch Wiggins' parents about where to go to college for one year? The only one who knows any of these answers is Wiggins, and we all must anxiously await a final decision from a once-in-a-lifetime type of talent.
As layhawk fans, we've seen what one-and-done players can do to a promising college basketball season, and don't worry; I won't go into the gory details. Wiggins is different. No one thought Xavier Henry or Josh Selby was a future game-changer in the NBA — Wiggins is. He has now dragged his recruitment out into late April, and the longer he waits, the more obsessive "hoop crazies," like myself, become over his decision.
players in the NBA draft, however. Self falls behind considerably - especially in the lottery. Self's ability to coach and improve players is more important to me, but that's a whole different conversation. To Wiggins, he gets an elite college basketball coach either way with those two.

DAFT PUNK - RANDOM ACCESS MEMORIES
Rapper Danny Brown was relatively unknown until he released his 2011 album "XXX," then he burst onto the scene and had the honor of being on XXL magazine's 2012 freshman list. It's been two years since Brown's last album, but that doesn't mean he hasn't released any music. With several stellar singles already released like "jealousy," "Old" is looking to be a great album. Look for it to release late in the summer.

Kosovo Albanian doctor Lufi Dervisi, center, flanked by defense councils, sits in a court room in Pristina, Kosovo, yesterday. A Kosovo court has found two ethnic Albanians guilty of human trafficking and organized crime in a highly publicized trial against seven people suspected of running an international organ trafficking ring. A panel of two European Union and one Kosovo judges sentenced Lufi Dervisi to eight years in prison and his son Arban Dervishi to seven years and three months in prison for extracting kidneys from poor donors who were lured by financial promises.
Illegal organ trafficking ring exposed
ASSOCIATED PRESS
PRISTINA, Kosovo — A court in Kosovo found two citizens guilty of human trafficking and organized crime Monday in a major trial against seven people suspected of running an international organ trafficking ring that took kidneys from poor donors lured by financial promises.
A panel of two European Union judges and one Kosovo judge sentenced urologist Lutfi Dervishi to eight years in prison and his son Arban Dervisi to seven years and three months. Both also received fines, while Lutfi Dervishi was barred from practicing urology for two years.
A third defendant, Sokol Hajdini, was sentenced to three years in jail for causing grievous bodily harm. Two others received suspended sentences, while two were freed. The defendants can appeal the
verdicts and they are not kept in custody
Organ transplantation is illegal in Kosovo's private clinics. It is also rare in public health facilities because of poor conditions.
The trial began in December 2011 and included more than 100 witnesses. All the donors and recipients were foreign nationals.
Seven donors who testified were from Israel, Russia, Ukraine, Kazakhtan, Belarus and Turkey. They described how they were flown into Kosovo from Istanbul and quickly wheeled into surgery in a medical facility named "Medicus" on the outskirts of Kosovo's capital, Pristina.
The victims were promised $10,000 to $12,000 in return for their kidneys, but many said they were never paid.
The donors' kidneys were removed for transplantation into people who paid up to 130,000
euros for the procedure. The recipients were mostly wealthy patients from places such as Israel, Poland, Canada, the U.S. and Germany.
The court ordered that Lufi and Arban Dervishi pay partial compensation of 15,000 euros to each of the seven victims who testified during the proceedings. The victims may later seek additional compensation in court, the panel said in its reasoning.
At least 24 kidney transplants, involving 48 donors and recipients, were carried out between 2008 and 2009, the period the case covered.
The donors "were alone, did not speak the language, uncertain of what they were doing and had no one to protect their interest," the court's reasoning read. "Some donors had severe second thoughts at the clinic, but were given no opportunity to back out and were psychologically pressured into going forward with the surgery."
Most of the names of donors and recipients were traced through documents seized during a police raid into the clinic in 2008 acting to verify a statement by a Turkish man that his kidney was removed. The man caught police's attention when he collapsed at the Pristina airport.
"In every sense this was the cruel harvest of the poor and weak in our society," Jonathan Ratel, a Canadian prosecutor who brought the charges as part of European Union's rule of law mission in Kosovo, said after the verdicts.
The defendants are believed to have profited $1 million from the transplants.
He alleged that the sole motive of the defendants was "obscene profit and human greed." But the defendants claimed they were not guilty, arguing that the donors came to Kosovo voluntarily and that the surgeries saved lives.

Trebek addresses rumors of retiring from 'Jeopardy'
MCCLATCHY TRIBUNE
But don't say that to Alex Trebek.
LOSANGeles — Speculation has been swirling recently that when Alex Trebek's contract is up in 2016, the long-running host of "Jeopardy" will finally retire.
"Everybody's speculating on my retirement and I don't know why," Trebek told the Los Angeles Times. "It's silly. Somebody asked me if I give any thoughts to retiring. Well, yes, I've given thoughts to retiring, for crying out loud. I've been doing the show for 29 years. Why wouldn't I think about retiring? Everybody assumes from my having said that, that he's retiring. Well, no, I've been thinking about it. So allow me to talk about it."
Reports recently speculated that Trebek would be stepping down at the end of the 2015-2016 season, when the host will be 76 years old. But according to Trebek, who is just 72 now, he's still enjoying the job and won't decide to quit until he feels he can't do it anymore. And when that time comes, don't expect much of a heads-up.
"It'll probably happen very quickly," he said. "There won't
be any fanfare. It'll be like the time I shaved my mustache on a whim. I'll just ask the director to leave me 20 or 30 seconds at the end of the program to say a few words and I'll say a few words and thank people and be on my way."
Trebek professes to be completely uninterested in the kind of long goodbyes that Johnny Carson or Regis Philbin had when they stepped down.
"This isn't the Alex Trebek farewell tour," he said. "It's no big deal."
As for who would or should replace him? Though Matt Lauer and Anderson Cooper have been mentioned as possible replacements, Trebek is keeping out of it.
"It could be anybody," he said.
"Could be a woman. I don't concern myself with that because that is not a decision I will be involved in."
However, he isn't completely dismissive of his three decades on the air or how synonymous he has become with the "jeopardy" brand.
"I hope I'll be hard to replace. That would be a good thing for my legacy. But anybody can be replaced. I can be replaced."

Randy Jackson and Rebbie Jackson, background right, brother and sister of late pop star Michael Jackson, arrive at a court-house for Katherine Jackson's lawsuit against concert giant AEG Live in Los Angeles yesterday. An attorney for Michael Jackson's mother says AEG Live owed it to the pop superstar to properly investigate the doctor held criminally responsible for his death.
Michael Jackson's mother sues concert company
ASSOCIATED PRESS
LOS ANGELES — Concert giant AEG Live failed in its duty to properly investigate the doctor who treated Michael Jackson because it was concerned about its own fortunes, an attorney for the singer's mother told a jury Monday morning.
"You're going to hear the whole story about what happened in the death of Michael Jackson," Panish said.
"His stirring voice, his musical genius, his creativity and his generosity and his huge heart was extinguished forever," attorney Brian Panish said in opening statements of a civil lawsuit filed over Jackson's June 2009 death. Katherine Jackson is suing AEG claiming it failed to properly investigate the doctor convicted of involuntary manslaughter over Jackson's death.
Panish made his remarks in an opening presentation filled with slides detailing the case against AEG, which was promoting Jackson's planned comeback concerts, "This Is It."
Jackson's mother, brother Randy and sister Rebbie sat in the front row of the courtroom as Panish detailed aspects of Jackson's life.
An attorney for AEG is expected to begin addressing the panel later Monday.
Millions, and possibly billions, of dollars are at stake. A jury of six men and six women will determine any damage award.
AEG denies it hired Murray and its attorneys have said they could
Katherine Jackson sued the company in September 2010, claiming it failed to properly investigate former physician Conrad Murray before allowing him to serve as Jackson's tour doctor. She is also suing on behalf of her son's three children, Prince, Paris and Blanket.
not have foreseen the circumstances that led to Jackson's death at age 50. A jury convicted Murray of giving Jackson a fatal dose of the anesthetic propofol in 2011. The hospital-grade anesthetic was being administered as a sleep aid.
Panish told jurors they would be putting together a puzzle, with three pieces being Jackson, Murray and AEG Live.
He told the panel that Jackson suffered from addiction to prescription medications and Demerol at times during his life, and the problem increased when he was keeping up a rigorous schedule. Panish cited a 1984 accident that injured Jackson during a Pepsi commercial suit as causing the singer tremendous physical pain throughout his life.
"Over the years Michael family's and people who knew him believed he had a problem with prescription medication," Panish told jurors. He said the only group that would claim they didn't know about Jackson's addiction issues were AEG and its executives.
The lawyer showed a brief clip of Jackson rehearing for the "This Is It" shows and a clip of the singer dancing in the early stages of his presentation. He also showed footage of 1999 show in Munich in which Jackson was performing when a bridge dropped 50 feet with the singer on it. Despite pain, Jackson continued performing, Panish said.
Panish also detailed Murray's money problems, including an impending foreclosure and other debts. AEG also had issues as well, the lawyer told jurors, saying the company was feeling intense pressure from concert promoter Live Nation.
Panish said Jackson turned to Demerol to relieve his pain.
He said AEG saw the Jackson
shows as a way to make a lot of money and better compete with Live Nation.
He said the company was so concerned with getting Jackson to perform, "They didn't care who got lost in the wash."
Jurors listened intently to Panish's presentation, and a couple nodded their head as the attorney detailed Jackson's achievements, including his Super Bowl appearances, successful concert tours and other milestones.
Panish also showed jurors several emails between key AEG executives discussing Jackson's condition in the months before his death.
Panish told jurors they would have to determine who was responsible for Jackson's death.
The lawyer displayed a March 2009 email before a press conference featuring Jackson, in which AEG Live CEO Randy Phillips wrote to the former CEO of AEG'S parent company, Tim Leiweke, that Jackson was drunk and refusing to address fans.
"This is the scariest thing I have ever seen," Phillips wrote Lieweke. "He is an emotionally paralyzed mess riddled with self-loathing and doubt now that it's show time. He's scared to death."
Panish said Jackson's behavior was just one of several warning signs that the company ignored before MJ's death.
"Michael paid the ultimate price. He died," Panish said. "Michael has taken responsibility."
Jackson's mother and his two oldest children, Prince and Paris, are listed as possible witnesses. An AEG attorney said Monday that the company intends to call Murray as a witness.
Murray did not testify at his criminal trial.
Pop culture parody web series delivers high-quality humor
COMEDY
MCCLATCHY TRIBUNE
CHICAGO — Anyone with a cellphone and a laptop can make a Web series. But it's tough to pull off something that looks professionally made. Not when there's barely any money involved. There is a huge opportunity here for indie filmmakers, especially those inventive enough to shoot great-looking videos on nonexistent

Plenty of comedy videos emanate from Chicago. Few, though, are as sharply produced as
Logan and Mirza have been smart enough to develop a narrative that credibly exists independent of the Us Weekly wormhole where the Kardashians typically exist. This character is bitter and sardonic. She's a mess. And she's
"... I don't want this to be mean. There's so much mean comedy out there. That's not our intention."
"Kam Kardashian," a satire of pop culture and minority status as seen through the eyes of hard-drinking, hair-brained schemers. It began its second season this month at kamkardashian.com.
That's a ripe premise. Mirza created the character for an audition, and the idea took on a life of its own. (She and Logan are also the show's co-writers.)
Filmmaker Ryan Logan and theater actor Fawzia Mirza (who stars) created the series last year, centering the action on a fictional long-lost lesbian Kardashian sister who has been "cut off, kicked out and left to tend for herself" — banished to Chicago and relegated to black-sheep status.
"I have about four different layers of minority status," Mirza said. "I'm queer, I'm Muslim, I'm Pakistani, and I'm a woman. I've spent

saddled with that famous last name. Except for a brief tag at the end, the show's creators avoid the mistake of casting actors to play recognizable celebrities. That would kill the illusion. Mirza really looks like she could pass for a Kardashian.
"I'm someone who looks a certain way," she said. "Am I the most TV-friendly looking person? No. And my castability in Chicago is limited. This was about, let's create our own stuff and tell our own stories, and cast people who look real and who are funny."
According to Logan, the first season was made with no budget at all. They raised $5,000 on Kickstarter for the second season (which they shot in February), but even that is a negligible sum.
name out there. We want to show people what we can do. If something looks too videolike, we try to change it, because we want it to look cinematic."
"Ryan Logan is basically a one-man-band post-production house, so he does all the work," Mirza said.
That TV-ready gloss makes a big difference in terms of watchability. It's performed and edited with a real instinct for comedic timing. You're not distracted by second-rate production values. It's the kind of work that should get Mirza and Logan noticed outside Chicago. Someone should throw a little money at this team and give them a bigger platform. The crossover potential is substantial.
"A lot of people might think, 'You're making a Web series, so make as simple as possible,' Logan said. "But you're putting your
There's a real confidence at work in the series that's evident from the start (the first episode, called "The Gay One," features Kam knocking back shots of whiskey and ranting to an unseen bartender), but it wasn't until Episode 3 that the series found its voice with the addition of Inboden. At its best, the show is like a latter-day version of "Laverne and Shirley"
The Kardashians themselves have not acknowledged the series.
"But wouldn't that be great if they did?" Mirza said. "It definitely falls under parody, so if I did get a letter from them I would be a little nervous, but I'm sure I would be able to find an attorney who would love to take on the case because it would be fantastic and absurd. But one of the things Ryan and I strive for is, I don't want this to be mean. There's so much mean comedy out there. That's not our intention. It's too easy to mock the Kardashians. I'd rather Kam take the brunt of the jokes."
New episodes of "Kam Kar-dashian" are posted every Wednesday.

It covers an entire city block of New York's Fifth Avenue, a Dover marble and bronze citadel of consumption at its most conspicuous. Bergdorf Goodman is shopping at its highest end, a fashion arbiter at the oh-so-exclusive retail level, the capital of aspirational America. From its exquisite designer salons to its ornate street level windows, ornate expressions of consumerism as public art, it is a monument, in its own way, to the American Dream.
"Scatter My Ashes at Bergdorf s" is a love letter to this New York institution, a celebration of its place within the fashion food chain and those designers who know that when they've been accepted there, their fortune is made.
According to a police report, a flight attendant told an investigator that Bevinino had gone to the restroom after asking for the drink:
Man detained for unflushed toilet
“(He) came back out with a smile on his face and began using profanities. (Name redacted) passed by the restroom and saw that Bevivino left the door open and did not flush the toilet.”
Salvatore Bevivino, 52, a business manager for Genentech, boarded a Virgin America flight on April 28, 2012. After the plane reached cruising altitude over Indiana, he pushed the call button and asked for a soda.
According to the suit, a male attendant told Bevivino that if he

The suit, which seeks $500,000 in damages, was filed last week in the Northern District of California.

PHILADELPHIA — A passenger who flew from Philadelphia to San Francisco was detained on arrival by federal agents after a vindictive flight attendant claimed he had not flushed a lavatory toilet, according to a federal suit.
The aircraft landed at San Francisco International. But as Bevivino began to disembark he was pulled aside by the plane's captain "as a person of suspicion."
Snippy personal shopper Betty Halbreich keeps an eyebrow everraised at whatever you're wearing when you arrive, knowing she'll send you back out the door poorer but stylish.

The police report notes the captain didn't believe he or his flight crew ever felt threatened.

Wherever this store sits in the retail hierarchy, there's nothing extreme and little that's biting or funny in the way director Matthew Miele presents it. Despite inventive ways of showing the history, it's a dry wallow in high fashion lacking the drama, wit or bitchiness of the Anna Wintour documentary "The September Issue."
Here is Bergdorf's, "Scatter My Ashes" says, "Look upon it in wonder." And we do, even if we wish the tone was more Joan Rivers and less Miss Manners.
The characters — heirs and managers and shoppers and celebrity fans (Joan Rivers, Susan Lucci) and designers (the Olsen twins among them) — may be overly coiffed and coutured. But they're never caricatures.

Betsey Johnson stars in reality show

MCCLATCHY TRIBUNE
Designer Betsey Johnson heads up her own reality show, premiering on the Style Channel May 12.
MCCLATCHY TRIBUNE
PASADENA, Calif. — Fashion's perpetually childlike Betsey Johnson has known the dizzying peaks of popularity and the wretched valleys of despair. Yet the designer, who set fashion trends for more than 40 years, is rising again with her own reality show, "OXO Betsey Johnson," premiering May 12 on the Style Channel.
Known for her Pippi Longstocking hair, her over-the top designs and kooky vivacity. Johnson shares the camera with her daughter, Lulu, in an intimate look at her work and their mother-
daughter relationship.
Having overcome breast cancer, Johnson saw her empire — including 63 retail stores — slip into bankruptcy last year. But she remains
"... I was very excited about a reality show that would show — especially my fans — what I do in fashion."
unbowed as the creative director for her brand, specializing in accessories, swim wear, a dress collection and soon an aerobic line.
"I didn't ever want to do a reality show that came into my personal life because I need my separate, personal, alone downtime," she says, jangling five bracelets on each wrist and slipping on a crocheted sweater over her ruffled pink bustier and black pad pushers.
"But I was very excited about a realty show that would show — especially my fans — what I do in fashion. Then Lulu, in the last year, has been about the changes she's going through. We're both still in a very changing place and it's been a fascinating eight months of recording our lives."
And what a life she's had.
Johnson never wanted to be a fashion designer. "That was the last thing," she says, "because I grew up learning from my mother and the neighbor how to sew. I loved making things and sewing and arty-craftsy, Girl-Scout things ...
I never took a fashion course. It's the perfect category for me now because it involves showtime and arty stuff, and I've been designing prints and creating prints. That's very 'art school.' It was art and knowing how to sew and growing up in leotards in dancing school — costumes that fascinated me," she says.
The middle child of three from Connecticut, she admits that she was always a bit hyper. "You're born with different energies and whatever I've always had this good but bad drive. I don't love it. Because it's living in a world of kind of like panic and worry. Worry warts,
BETSEY JOHNSON Fashion Designer
everybody in Connecticut are worry warts. You want to be liked, so you worry. I'm a worrier, and I have a lot of energy and I like to do things. Lulu wakes up smoooood. I
wake up, 'OK, what am I going to do? Where am I going today?
'What is the duh, duh, duh?' So I wake up kind of anxious, in a way.
I love deadlines. I'm good with deadlines. When I was a little girl in dancing school I got the discipline part."
What she didn't get was the marriage part. Johnson, 70, has been married three times. Lulu's father was not one of them.
"I just was incredibly in love and optimistic and went for it. In terms of paperwork, my first husband, pssssst, he didn't care. It's over, it's over. My second and third, it was difficult. The third was really difficult because he was such a brain child. And the second one died. We met, we married and divorced in three months. My private life gets kind of mixed up. That's why my work comes along and directs me and saves me and grounds me and keeps me going."
In spite of her optimism, she does have regrets. "I wouldn't have had such a long-distance relationship with my last husband. Soon as we got married and lived together for three weeks, we were divorcing. We never got the opportunity to live together. I was in New York and he was a computer guy so he had his own company in London, then he was in Palo Alto, and he had ex-wives and the kids out there. And he loved San Francisco and I didn't."
Her career began when she won a design contest fostered by Mademoiselle Magazine. The win swept her to London.
"That was the summer of '64,
mods, rockers, Beatles, Rolling Stones. Everyone was just on the verge. The '60s came from London and it was just like spring beginning to pop. And Mary Quant and Biba. And the women at Mademoiselle were extraordinary, wonderful woman. I was there for my guest editorship and we stayed at the all-girls' — no men allowed — Barbizon Hotel. It was a whirlwind and we worked on the college issue.
"But I couldn't pay my rent. After the Barbizon I lived in a five-story walkup under the Brooklyn Bridge.
And I thought, 'What can I do to make more money?'
What she did was design a T-shirt made of crocheted material topped with a velvet ribbon. Everyone was surprised when mail orders began pouring in. "I had to go home every night and make four of them and on the weekend had to make 10 of them. After 300 yards of fabric, I was done... I liked doing that, then I realized maybe I'll do my four of five favorite T-shirts and T-shirt, flippy, mini things. I make a little drawing. It was very logical. Nothing brilliant."

Obama jokes at banquet
ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — President Barack Obama joked Saturday that the years are catching up to him and he's not "the strapping young Muslim socialist" he used to be.
Obama poked fun at himself as well as some of his political adversaries during the annual White House Correspondents' Association dinner attended by politicians, members of the media and Hollywood celebrities.
Entering to the rap track "All I Do Is Win" by DJ Khaled. Obama joked about how re-election would allow him to unleash a radical agenda. But then he showed a picture of himself golfing on a mock magazine cover of "Senior Leisure."
"I'm not the strapping young Muslim Socialist that I used to be," the president remarked, and then recounted his recent 2-for-22 basketball shooting performance at the White House Easter Egg hunt.
But Obama's most dramatic shift for the next four years appeared to be aesthetic. He presented a montage of shots featuring him with bangs similar to those sometimes sported by his wife.
"So we borrowed one of Michelle's tricks," Obama said. "I thought this looked pretty good, but no bounce."
Obama closed by noting the nation's recent tragedies in Massachusetts and Texas, praising Americans of all stripes from first responders to local journalists for serving the public good.

New York Yankees centerledler Brett Gardner cannot catch a ball hit for a player by Houston Astros' Jose Altuve during the seventh inning of a baseball game yesterday at Yankee Stadium in New York.
After four-game sweep, Astros crush Yankees 9-1
ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK — Carlos Corporan homered among his four hits and drove in four runs, Brandon Barnes three hits and three RBIs, and the Houston Astros fit comfortably into the role of a slugging American League squad Monday night in a 9-1 romp over the New York Yankees.
PAGE 9
The Astros had 17 hits in improving the ALs worst record to 8-18 and scored its first five runs with two outs.
In their first game in the Bronx as an AL team, the Astros peppered Andy Pettitte for 10 hits and seven runs, both season highs for the lefty. Barnes and Corporah had two-run doubles and Barnes added an RBI single and a double. Barnes and Corporan each set career highs for hits and RBIs.
Lucas Harrell (3-2) kept New York grounded. The Yankees did not hit the ball in the air against the sinkerballer until
Houston bounced back from a four-game sweep in Boston with an enthusiastic win over the Yankees, who had just taken four straight from Toronto.
The youngest roster in the majors, checking in at 27 years, 224 days, beat the oldest in baseball at 31 years, 155 days, according to STATS, for just the second time in 10 matchups all-time. In their only other win, six Astros combined on a no-hitter at Yankee Stadium in 2003.
Brett Gardner blooped a single to left field with one out in the sixth — eliciting a mock cheer from those that remained from the announced crowd of 34,262 on a dunk night. Harrell got 14 groundball outs, and he induced three double plays in the first four innings.
In 6 1-3 innings, the righthander gave eight hits, hit a batter and walked one. He struck out four and had one fly out. Harrell has allowed two runs or fewer in five of his six starts.
Pitching against the only other team he ever played for and working with rookie catcher Austin Romine for the first time, Pettitte (3-2) looked uncomfortable throughout. He frequently adjusted his uniform, at times pitched from the stretch with no one on base and even once had to wave several times to get Romine's
attention when he wanted a new baseball.
Pettite got two quick outs to start but then gave up three straight hits, including an RBI single to Carlos Pena, a walk and then a two-run double to Corporan.
Adam Warren came on and threw a wild pitch to score a run. Then when Corporan connected for his first of the year four pitches later, a two-run shot that right fielder Brennan Boesch barely moved on, a fan in a nearly silent Yankee Stadium shouted "mercy rule," eliciting laughter. Barnes drove in one more in the fifth with a single to make it 9-0.
Barnes hit his two-out, two-run double in the fourth to make it 5-0. The Astros chased Pettite, who briskly walked off the field, after Ronny Cedeno doubled to put runners on second and third with one out.
Pettitte yielded his most hits since Sept. 24, 2010, against Boston. It's also the most runs since the Red Sox scored seven in that game.
Vernon Wells had an RBI single on a sharp grounder to right field off Harrell in the sixth.
NBA
Openly gay athlete breaks down barrier
ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK — By coming out as gay while still an active NBA player, Jason Collins breaks one of the last remaining barriers for gays and lesbians in era of constant political gains and ever-growing public acceptance.
In most other realms of public life — including the military, Congress, the corporate boardroom — gays have been taking their place as equals. Until Monday, however, no male athlete had come out as gay while still an active player on any team in the four major North American pro sports leagues.
"Today's announcement again shows that gay Americans are our teachers, police officers, nurses, lawyers and even our professional athletes," said the president of the largest national gay-rights group. Chad Griffin of the Human Rights Campaign.
Beyond sports, the most dramatic barometer of shifting attitudes has been public opinion on same-sex marriage. The latest Gallup Poll on that issue pegged national support at 53 percent, up
"We contribute to every aspect of our American community and deserve the same equal rights as every American," he said.
nearly twofold from 27 percent in 1996.
That change has been reflected in the political arena.
With a key vote in the state Senate last week, Rhode Island put itself on track to become the 10th state to legalize same-sex marriage. Bills proposing to take
"... gay Americans are our teachers, police officers, nurses, lawyers and even our professional athletes."
Gay-rights supporters hope the trend will be reflected in rulings by the U.S. Supreme Court, expected in June, on whether the federal government should recognize same-sex marriages and on whether a ban on such marriages in California should be struck down.
CHAD GRIFFIN Human Rights Campaign
the same step are pending in Minnesota, Delaware and Illinois.
Pollsters say there are two main reasons many Americans who formerly opposed gay marriage are now supporting it. Many say it's because they know someone who
is gay — a family member, friend or acquaintance — while others say their views evolved as they thought more about the issue.
Public opinion also played a role in the 2011 repeal of the "don't ask, don't tell" policy that had barred gays and lesbians from serving openly in the military. By the time that top military commanders and most members of Congress joined the repeal bandwagon, a majority of the public already was supporting a change in the policy.
In Congress, there are now a record seven openly gay or bisexual members, including Wisconsin Democrat Tammy Baldwin, the first openly gay U.S. senator, and Rep. Jared Polis, D-Colo., who is raising a son with his partner. Sympathetic gay characters abound on popular TV shows, in films and in comic books.
Rev. Al Sharpton, a leading black civil rights activist, was among those welcoming the announcement by Collins.
"I call on others in the civil rights community and the African-American leadership of all fields to embrace this development," Sharpton said. "We can't be custodians of intolerance and freedom fighters at the same time."

game.
NEW YORK — Brook Lopez had 28 points and 10 rebounds, Deren Williams added 23 points and 10 assists, and the Brooklyn Nets beat Chicago 110-91 on Monday night, cutting the Bulls' lead to 3-2 in their first-round playoff series.
Andray Blatche scored 10 of his 13 points in the fourth quarter and Gerald Wallace had consecutive baskets down the stretch as the Nets finally pulled away in a game they led most of the way, but never by too much.
Two days after rallying for a 142-134 triple-overtime victory, the Bulls were outscored 15-1 down the stretch and failed to set up a second-round series with Miami. Instead they will host Game 6 on Thursday.
Nate Robinson had 20 points and eight assists starting in place of point guard Kirk Hinrich, who bruised his left calf in Saturday's
Robinson scored 29 of his 34 points after the third quarter Saturday in a game the Nets led by 14 late in regulation. Coming off his big game and agitating to opposing fans even when he's struggling, Robinson was loudly booed during introductions, and each time he touched the ball early on.
He made a jumper with 4:17 remaining to cut Brooklyn's lead to 95-90, but there would be no charge this time. Lopez converted a three-point play, and after a free throw by Jimmy Butler, Wallace nailed a 3-pointer, then came up with a steal and dunk to give the Nets a 103-91 advantage with 2 minutes to go.
The Nets finished it off with ease, extending their first season in Brooklyn. They would host a Game 7 here on Saturday.
Only eight NBA teams have overcome a 3-1 deficit, but the Nets remained confident after Saturday's
collapse, feeling they had outplayed the Bulls for long stretches during the series. They have led by double digits in four of the five games.
But they need two more wins against a Bulls franchise that is 12-0 all-time when holding a 3-1 lead.
The Nets ran off seven straight points late in the first quarter, five from Lopez, to turn a 17-17 tie into a 24-17 lead.
Brooklyn got eight second-quarter points from Kris Humphries, then opened its biggest lead when Johnson and Gerald Wallace made consecutive 3-pointers before Lopez made two free throws to make it 50-40. The Nets led 52-44 at the break.
The Nets had the lead into double digits a few times in the third quarter but never built on it. The Bulls were back within four by the end of the period after making 11 of 16 shots (69 percent).

TRIVIA OF THE DAY
Q: When was the last time the Chiefs used their first draft pick on an offensive tackle?
A: 1999, 14th overall, when they drafted John Tait.

THE MORNING BREW Chiefs look to improve offense with draftees
The Kansas City Chiefs went into the 2013 NFL Draft with a plan to improve the offense. By accomplishing the plan, general manager John Dorsey and head coach Andy Reid invest ed their first four draft picks on offensive players, and rightfully so.
The Chiefs scored a league-low 17 offensive touchdowns and produced only 13.2 points per game last year. The Chiefs also committed 37 turnovers on offense, tying for first with the New York Jets and Philadelphia Eagles for most giveaways.
By Farzin Vousoughian
fvousoughian@kansan.com
Kansas City's defense wasn't perfect in 2012, but it limited its opponents in scoring in some games. Most notably, the Chiefs stood up to the Baltimore Ravens, Pittsburgh Steelers, Indianapolis Colts and Denver Broncos in the second meeting.
If Kansas City's offense rewards its defense by securing the football and getting to the end zone more, the team will be more competitive in 2013.
However, the offense responded most of the time by either turning the ball over or going three-and-outs rather than scoring.
The Chiefs drafted offensive tackle Eric Fisher, tight end Travis Kelce and running back Knile Davis with their first three picks they kept this past weekend and
traded away their second-round pick to San Francisco for quarterback Alex Smith earlier this season.
Fisher, taken with the No. 1 overall pick, is a versatile offensive lineman and is likely to replace Branden Albert on the left side. Fisher also gives Smith better protection from his blind side, which allows him to feel more comfortable in the pocket.
With Kelce on the roster, the Chiefs have another option to consider at tight end. Kelce had a breakout senior year while playing at Cincinnati. He scored eight touchdowns last season, which ranks second among all tight ends in the nation in 2012.
Tight end Anthony Fasano, who was signed after spending the last five years with the Miami Dolphins, gives the Chiefs more to work with. But the draft pick is
likely due to Tony Moakei's quiet season after suffering a knee injury from the year before. If Moeaki continues to struggle, the door for Kelce opens up and he could be an impact player for the Chiefs.
With Reid's offense being very pass-oriented, Chiefs fans can expect Kelce to be targeted a lot during his rookie campaign.
As for the running back position, the Chiefs were seeking a reliable running back to play behind Jamaal Charles. The Chiefs saw Davis was on the board and snagged him late in the third round.
Although he had a low-key 2012 season, Davis has a lot of potential. He rushed for more than 1,300 yards with 13 touchdowns as a sophomore in 2010 and was named first-team All-SEC by the Associated Press and second-team All-SEC by the conference coaches.
KU
However, a season-ending left ankle injury prevented him from seeing the 1,000-yard mark again in college. He decided to forego his last year of eligibility, and the Chiefs decided to give him an opportunity.
If Davis returns to his 2010 form, he can complement Charles and will be a big asset to the offense.
Kansas City's offense has some strong pieces in Charles and wide receiver
Dwayne Bowe. Rather than selecting another quarterback in the draft, the front office constructed an offense and gave Smith weapons to work with this season.
Moving forward, the veterans and rookies on the Chiefs will work together in organized team activities, training camp and preseason games. This gives Reid and offensive coordinator Doug Pederson some time to get a good look at how the players work together before kicking off the regular season in Jacksonville on Sept. 8.
With lots of talented players on the team, the Chiefs have a chance to improve from last place in the league. The Denver Broncos still stand in the way as the top team in the AFC West. But offensively, the Chiefs will be better and will put more points on the scoreboard this season to help improve from last year's two-win season and perhaps try to compete for a spot in the playoffs in December.

Braves end losing streak beating Nationals 3-2
ASSOCIATED PRESS
ATLANTA Andrelton Simmons hit a tiebreaking sacrifice fly in the seventh inning, then made an eye-popping play to start the ninth as the Atlanta Braves beat the Washington Nationals 3-2 on Monday night and ended their four-game losing streak.
Atlanta beat the Nationals for the eighth straight time dating to last season. The Braves swept three games at Washington earlier this month.
Ian Desmond off the ninth with a slow grounder that Simmons charged. The Atlanta shortstop slipped as he fielded the ball and fell on his backside, but somehow fired a strike from the seat of his pants that first baseman Freddie Freeman caught his a big stretch. Desmond was called out on a dose play, and disagreed with the decision. Washington manager Davey Johnson came out to argue with umpire Tim Timmons.
Washington's Stephen Strasburg ended his career-worst streak of losses in four straight starts. He allowed two runs in six innings.
Gerald Laird led off the Braves' seventh with a walk from Tyler Clippard (1-1). Laird moved up on pinch-hitter Tyler Pastonicky's sacrifice bunt and was held at third on Jordan Schafer's single.
Simmons' fly ball to right allowed Laird to slide safely headfirst across the plate.
Jordan Walden (1-0) struck out three in 1 2-3 hitless innings. He replaced Julio Teheran, who allowed 10 hits and two runs in 5 1-3 innings.
Eric O'Flaherty struck out two in a perfect eighth and Craig Kimbrel pitched the ninth for his ninth save.
Freeman followed Upton's hit with a single to left field, but took a wide turn around first and was thrown out. Braves manager Fredi Gonzalez argued the call with Timmons at first base, and replays indicated Freeman's hand was on
Strasburg gave up six hits, walked four and struck out eight. He looked uncomfortable in the first inning as his first pitch to Schafer sailed to the backstop. Schafer walked, stole second and scored on Justin Upton's soft single.
the bag before he was tagged.
Former Braves star Chipper Jones visited his former teammate and hunting buddy Adam LaRoche, now the Nationals' first baseman, before the game. Jones, who has said he has possible interest in becoming a hitting coach, watched video with LaRoche of the slumping left-handed hitter's swing.
The video review with Jones must have helped as LaRoche led off the second inning with a single to snap his 0-for-26 drought. LaRoche's hit started a string of four straight singles, including run-scoring hits by Chad Tracy and Kurt Suzuki, to give Washington a 2-1 lead.
Freeman walked to lead off the fourth, and singles by Dan Uggla and Laird made it 2-all.
Washington's Jayson Werth crumpled to the ground after fouling a ball off his left foot in the eighth. He completed his at-bat — a strikeout — and was replaced in right field by Roger Bernadina in the bottom of the inning.

ASSOCIATED PRESS
ATLANTA — Josh Smith scored 29 points as the Atlanta Hawks built a 17-point lead at halftime, then withstood an Indiana comeback the final two quarters to even the series with a 102-91 victory in Game 4 on Monday night.
After struggling much of the second half, Smith made every big play down the stretch. He swished a rare 3-pointer, came up with an offensive rebound to set up a 3 by Kyle Korver, then finished off a fast break with a right-handed dunk.
Paul George scored 18 of his 21 points in the second half as the Pacers made a game of it but couldn't come back from a 57-40 deficit at the break.
Korver added 19 points off the bench, most of them coming on his specialty: the 3-pointer. He knocked down five from outside the arc, including the biggest one with 2:33 remaining after Al Horford threw up a wild shot that missed. Smith snatched one of his 11 rebounds and spotted Korver lurking all alone on the outside.
Tied at two wins apiece, the series returns to Indianapolis for Game 5 on Wednesday night.
Horford chipped in with 18 points.

Four more former Jayhawks received invitations to NFL mini-camps after the 2013 NFL Draft. Center Trevor Marrongelli received an invite to the Detroit Lions' mini-camp, but has yet to decide if he will take the opportunity.
Marrongelli started 30 games during his Kansas career, playing both guard and center. He started his last 24 games of his career, helped the Jayhawks produce a 1,000-yard rusher in James Sims and ranked second in rushing in
The Nebraska transfer started all 12 games at defensive end during his senior season. He made 24 tackles on the season, including two for a loss. Williams added
three fumble recoveries, a forced fumble and two quarterback hurries on the season. He recorded a career-high six tackles at Baylor.
Defensive end Josh Williams has been invited by the Chicago Bears to their mini-camp.
The Jacksonville Jaguars invited offensive guard Duane Zlatnik to their mini-camp.
Bakare played in 23 games during his career, picking up seven starts at linebacker. He had 87 tackles, 5.5 for a loss and one sack. He had a career-best 11 tackles at Texas in 2011.

COMMENTARY Pull up bootstraps and move on
By Trevor Graff
tgraff@kansan.com
Big 12 baseball is a volatile beast. It gives no room for error nor compassion to mistakes at the plate or in the field.
The 2013 campaign is no different. Sure, the Jayhawks were riding high on three-straight Big 12 series victories before heading to Beckley W.Va. to take on the Mountaineers for the first time in program history, but it didn't take long for the Big 12's newest member to prove just how tough this league can be.
Entering the weekend, the Jayhawks sat firmly in second place with a 9-6 record in the Big 12 conference. After suffering the sweep, Kansas fell to 9-9 on the season, tying for fifth place with the Oklahoma State Cowboys.
The Jayhawks aren't immune to setbacks this season. After all, they did drop a hard-fought game against the Creighton Blue Jays 6-4 at Hoglund Ballpark at the beginning of the month. Even further in the rear view mirror is a disappointing series loss in Provo, Utah, against the Brigham Young Cougars.
The message after these losses and the many setbacks of the season remains consistent.
Flush it. Just flush it and move on. The phrase runs rampant through the Kansas clubhouse and has worked quite well in this highly competitive Kansas baseball campaign. The Jayhawks are grinders. From the pitching staff to the outfield, the grind continued all season.
They play offense the old-school, small-ball way, defense with the fundamentals that keep teams in contention and pitch to contact to complement the package. They've mastered the art of bouncing back after a tough loss.
But this is different.
This is the point in a season that one might call a boot strap moment.
Everyone has them. Whether it be a student struggling to maintain academics in the stretch run of a year, a businessman handling an account gone wrong or a baseball player, there comes a time when, in true old-school, western-flick fashion, a person has to pull themselves up by the bootstraps and move forward.
This is a bootstrap moment for Kansas baseball.
"That's really our first devastating weekend in conference play," coach Ritch Price said. "If we win the last two series, we can still finish second or third. The devastating part of the whole weekend is if we win that series, we're two games ahead of second place in the whole thing."
Instead, the mindset has changed. The grind looks a bit darker now. It's shifted from a fight for first to the fight for second.
Team toughness shines in bootstrap moments. It's time to find out just how tough this Jayhawk team is.

COMEBACK KID
FOR WHOM THE BELL TOLLS
Wichita State has quickly taken over the conversation among Kansas players and coaches looking to put the weekend in the past. Coach Ritch Price said early in the week that the process of bouncing back from what could be the biggest disappointment of the season for the Jayhawks will take the best effort of his seniors and coaching staff.
senior right-handed pitcher Thomas Taylor said. "Every game, we played pretty decently. Every game was a one-run loss. We just have to put that behind us, get after Wichita State and get some momentum going into another weekend."

They have very little time in the stretch run of their schedule for hindsight.
"We've had success against them in the past," senior first baseman Alex DeLeon said. "I know the past two years we haven't played great against them. It's important for us to get a win and get that momentum back."
The bell is tolling loudly on the 2013 season of Kansas baseball. It tolls for a Jayhawk team that, competitively, hung with the best of the Big 12 conference until the bitter end.
Kansas dropped all three games by a single run in its weekend series at West Virginia. The sweep dropped the Jayhawks from second in the conference to fifth. Those surrounding the team aren't mistaking the situa-

pitched. They gave us a chance and we just didn't get the run support."
The Jayhawk pitching staff put together three solid starts over the
weekends. Senior right-handed pitcher Thomas Taylor pitched 7 1/3 innings, giving up the lone earned run in a pitcher's duel dominated by Mountainer sophomore left-hander Harrison Musgrave's complete game shutout.
"Obviously, it hurts when you think you've pitched well, and you don't get the win." Taylor said. "You can't do anything about it. It's a team game, and everyone has to be clicking at one time. There's been many games where the hitters have put up the runs, and we've pitched terrible. That's just baseball. We just have to go out there and pitch the best we can."
Kansas sophomore left-hander Wes Benjamin pitched a complete game, giving up one earned run in a 4-3 loss, and Kansas junior right-hander Frank Duncan returned to the rotation with a seven-inning performance in which he gave up one earned run.

PITCHING
The Jayhawks pitched at a high level in the series sweep suffered at the hands of West Virginia over the weekend. Kansas senior right-handed pitcher Thomas Taylor pitched 7 1/3 innings in game one, giving up the lone run to lose in a 1-0 pitching duel. Sophomore left-handed pitcher Wes Benjamin pitched a complete game, giving up one earned run in the 4-3 loss, and Frank Duncan returned to the rotation giving up one earned run to lose 3-2.
Kansas hitters struggled to manufacture runs against West Virginia pitching. In game three, the Jayhawks recorded nine hits, plating just two runs. An unlikely cast led the way at the plate. Sopomore outfielder Connor McKay recorded two hits to lead Kansas in game one. Freshman designated hitter Jacob Boylan's two hits, one run and one RBI paced the team in game two.

Defense was a trouble spot for Kansas baseball over the weekend. The Jayhawks committed only three errors over the weekend, but those errors cost precious runs. In game two, sophomore shortstop Justin Protocio's wide throw to first base gave up what could be considered the winning run in a must-win rebound game for a team struggling in a road series.
