University welcome-week packed with activities for all students

As summer winds down, students aren't ready to jump into a full week of classes and studying just yet. Thanks to Hawk Week, students can spend their first week at the University having fun all across campus while getting to know fellow students.
Hawk Week is the official welcome to the University according to Christina Kerns, coordinator for the Hawk Week program.
"It is designed to present new students with everything that the University has to offer, and help them build valuable connections to fellow students, faculty, staff, as well as the opportunities they will have as students," Kerns said.
Hawk Week isn't just for new students though; it's a week that everyone can look forward to. It's a time where students can go to events with old friends and meet new ones.
After moving in on Friday morning and meeting with their respective living communities in the evening, students can start Hawk Week off with free food, bowling and prizes at the Rock Chalk Block Party at 8:30 p.m.
"Hawk Fest is an easy way for new students to learn about and get involved in student organizations," said Drew Harger, a junior from McPherson and Hawk Week leader. "Tables line the parking lot
of Adams Alumni Center, where 75 of the nearly 600 student organizations at KU hand out free giveaways and recruit new members."
There have been celebrity sightings at the event in the past.
"The KU Spirit Squad and Pep Band perform as well," Harger said. "Last year, I snapped a picture with U.S. Olympic gold medalist and KU student Diamond Dixon."

Traditions Night will follow Hawk Fest at 8 p.m. Traditions Night is easily one of the most anticipated events of the week.

learn and experience some of the traditions our community has created over the last century and a half. Being able to share these traditions with a new wave of students
gives me a sense of pride just as big as the one they experience and reminds me just how lucky I am to be at a college I love so much."
Following Traditions Night, there will be a Night on the Hill concert
featuring the Hood Internet.
Sunday features a day where students from the different schools at the University can meet faculty and students and learn about extracurricular activities related to their major. Common book discussions will be held at locations across campus at 4 p.m., where students all across campus discuss the 2013 common book—Timothy Egan's "The Worst Hard Time."
"The chancellor speaks as well as representatives from every school about what the academic goals are for the year," Sondag said. "There is a great aura surrounding the event and it gets everyone excited about

their studies."
Activities continue throughout the week to inform students about all the University has to offer. One new activity this year is a ball pit that will sit outside of the Kansas Union hosted by the Office of Institutional Opportunity and Access.
Sondag advises incoming freshmen to attend Hawk Week activities that he and his colleagues have worked hard to set in motion.
"Members of this community have built this week specifically to make you feel like this is home and that you've been here for years," Sondag said. "Go to the events and give us the opportunity to welcome you to our community."

GREEK
More potential new members than ever attend recruitment
ORTHWOOD CITY OF GAELIA
EMILY DONOVAN
edonovan@kansan.com
Members of Kappa Alpha Theta sorority break it down, rush style, in front of potential members.
A friendly tumult bustles outside Kappa Alpha Theta. Punctually, and seemingly in one precise movement, the assemblies separate. After her turn to say goodbye to the potential new member she had been paired with, each sophomore, junior and senior finds her assigned place on the house's porch, smiling with her arms professionally at her side.
In harmony, they begin: "If you want to be happy for the rest of your life / Be a little girl that wears a kite."
"I could sing it in my sleep," Laura Neenan, a junior from Leawood, said. "We sing it around the house without even realizing we're singing because it's so stuck in our heads."
Neenan isn't the only Theta who can never seem to forget that rhyme. Alumnae who visited their old house during rehearsals last week sang along too, still remembering melody after 40 years, though no longer in the traditional navy blue skirt and red heels.
GEORGE MULLINIX/KANSAN
life comes from tradition and rituals," Neenan said. "That's what keeps Greek life here so strong."
"Such a big part of being in Greek
PHA has uppled its publicity campaign in the past year, using Facebook, Twitter and Instagram to connect with incoming Jayhawks. Said also speculates that the increased number of women paying the $77 registration fee and considering making the financial commitment to join a sorority may reflect a strengthening economy.
Now, Greek life is expected to be not just stronger but bigger. A record-breaking 956 women registered for the Panhellenic Association's Fall Formal Recruitment.
"If I could pinpoint why more women registered for recruitment, I would say our emphasis on marketing and communicating with high school seniors," said Morgan Said, PHA director for public relations and a junior from Shawnee.
Whatever the cause, Said is enthusiastic about the opportunity to grow the Greek community to accommodate for the expected increase in new members. Last year, 69 percent of women who went
through fall formal recruitment joined a sorority.
Each sorority's new member quota changes every year based on how many women go through formal recruitment, generally ranging between 30 and 50 new women. Since most sorority members only live in the house sophomore and junior year, there's no shortage of beds that can be made available.
"If we have similar numbers next year, we'll just be even more prepared," Neenan said. "It's exciting."
While 20 percent of women at the University participated joined sororities last year, 14 percent of men joined fraternities. This year, the University of Kansas Interfraternity Council also said a record-breaking number of men register for formal recruitment: 126.
The 90 Theta girls have exactly 25 minutes to welcome, introduce, impress, shake hands and bid farewell. As the closing song ends, the flock of potential new members take out PHA notepads and ballpoint pens to jot down notes and reminders, trying to keep all 13 sororities straight. Their schedules are cramped. The existing sorority members don't have it any easier, but their long days and enthusiasm are well-practiced.
Men's formal recruitment, which took place over the weekend of June 28 through 30, is less intensive than women's formal recruitment. Most men who join fraternities do so through informal recruitment events throughout the school year.
"When you reflect on it weeks later, it's such a good time to get close to women in your chapter — spending time together, working so close
together — but the tradition makes it more meaningful," Neenan said.
Sorority formal recruitment concludes with Bid Day on Friday as potential new members are accepted into sororities based on a mutual selection. Every potential new member who sticks through recruitment is invited back to at least a few houses and ranks those houses by preference. Until then, nearly 1,000 freshman women may be seen cycling between sorority houses around campus in the 90- degree
weather.
"Make sure your name tags are flipped forward," a recruitment counselor calls to the next batch of 70 potential new members lining up in front of Theta. In a tie-dye t-shirt and tennis shoes, she's cheery and good-humored despite having been up since 5:45 a.m. "Huge smiles. Excited to be here."

Police seize $1 million worth of meth
ckuiper@kansan.com
CODY KUIPER
Law enforcement officers seized nearly $1 million worth of methamphetamine in Douglas County in early August, which they believe was the supply of a Mexican drug cartel intended to be distributed in the Lawrence area.
Undercover officers from the Douglas County Drug Enforcement Unit as well as the Lawrence Police and Douglas County Sheriff's Office confiscated nearly 25 pounds of meth, the largest quantity ever seized in the county.
Lawrence Police Department spokesman Sgt. Trent McKinley said that Lawrence's proximity to a large drug market in Kansas City, among other factors, could have made the town attractive to the Mexican drug cartel.
"I think they would possibly look at the demographics of Lawrence and potentially market it here," he said. "Also, with the completion of 59 Highway and the connection through Ottawa, we are not very far from 1-35, and 1-35 is one of the major trafficking points north out of Mexico for this product."
The large population of young adults in Lawrence could potentially attract meth manufacturers as well. The results of the 2010 census show that nearly 29 percent of Lawrence residents are between the ages of 18 and 24, and according to the Center for Disease Control and Prevention, young adults are the most common users of methamphetamine. While some students tend to experiment with recreational drugs like marijuana during their college years, McKinley said methamphetamine is nothing to play around with.
"This isn't any kind of drug to take as an experimental thing," he said. "What we have heard from users is that when people try it they are almost instantly addicted. This also makes people behave in a fashion that's just irrational and obsessed."
Jesse Grismer, a grad student from San Diego, says the bust gives him encouragement that law enforcement efforts are being focused on more harmful drugs.
"I'm glad they're hitting the cartels," Grismer said. "I don't think there is anything wrong with weed or organic drugs, but
stuff that's synthetically made in a bottle in a ditch or a bathroom probably isn't good for anybody, so it's nice to see drug efforts pointed where they should be."
As the investigation is ongoing, few details regarding the seizure have been made public, and no charges have been filed yet.

FACTS ABOUT METH
Methamphetamine users tend to be young adults, which causes severe damage to the body in several ways
Age: Because it is cheaper and longer lasting than cocaine, methamphetamine is becoming popular with persons in their teens and early 20s. The average age at first use was 18.9 years in 2002, 20.4 years in 2003, and 22.1 years in 2004. The highest rate of methamphetamine use during the past year was that for young adults aged 18 to 25, followed by youth aged 12 to 17, and then adults aged 26 or older 1.
Sex. Among all persons 12 years of age or older, the rate of use during the past year was about the same for males and females (0.7 percent and 0.5 percent, respectively).
Race/ethnicity: The largest numbers methamphetamine users are white. However, the highest rates of methamphetamine use during the past year were those for Native Hawaiians or other Pacific islanders (2.2 percent), American Indians or Alaska
Natives (1.7 percent), and person who reported 2 or more races (1.9 percent). Past-year use among whites (0.7 percent) and Hispanics (0.5 percent) was higher than among blacks (including African Americans) (0.2 percent).
Rural users: Many
methamphetamine users in rural areas are white, working class, heterosexual young adults. Trends in rural areas show that increasing numbers of Latinos, Native
Americans and youth are using methamphetamine. Rural users, compared with urban users, are more likely to be heterosexual.
They also have the effects of meth use:
- Increased heart rate and blood pressure levels
- Sensations of pleasure, self-confidence, energy, and alertness
- Suppression of appetite and enhanced sexual arousal
- Sleepiness, talkativeness, compulsive behavior such as skin picking
- Long term use can lead to decayed teeth, weight loss, skin lesions, stroke and heart attack, paranoia, hallucinations, anxiety, and irritability
- Coming down from the high also causes a "crash," which usually includes a phase of depression
Found body may be missing Missouri girl
SEARCH
GOLDEN CITY, Mo. — Searchers found a body Wednesday outside the southwest Missouri town where a 12-year-old girl disappeared two days earlier, but a positive identification could take up to 24 hours, the Missouri State Highway Patrol said.
Adrianna Horton, of Golden City, became the subject of a massive search after friends reported seeing her get into a vehicle late Monday afternoon at a park where they had been playing. The driver, 34-year-old Bobby Bourne Jr., of Lamar, was alone when he was stopped about 90 minutes later and has since been charged with kidnapping.
Highway Patrol Sgt. Mike Watson declined Wednesday afternoon to say precisely where the body was found or describe the condition. The Joopin Globe reported. He said the search
Bourne is being held on $1 million bond in the Barton County jail. Adrianna's father, James Horton, has said Bourne once worked for him and that their children played together.
was suspended but that investigators were still examining the scene.
DNA testing may be necessary to make a positive identification, Watson said. He said any additional charges against Bourne would up to the county prosecutor.
Earlier Wednesday, relatives had expressed optimism that Adriaunna would be found safe.
"She can run like a rabbit, and she's double-jointed, and she's smart, knows how to use a phone, and if she gets a chance, she's gone," the grand-father said.
Her grandfather, also named James Horton, described the girl who disappeared following the first day of school as a lively, active child.
The Barton County Clerk's office said Wednesday a judge has ordered all documents in the case sealed, and it's unclear if Bourne has a lawyer.
Adriaunna's mother, Wendi Jackson of Overland Park, Kan., was in Golden City to be with relatives during the search.
Golden City is a town of about 760 residents northwest of Springfield.

TRANSPORTATION
Railroads to add cameras for safety
ASSOCIATED PRESS
OMAHA, Neb. — At least two major U.S. freight railroads are seeking to install cameras in their locomotives to make sure crews are following rules and avoiding cellphone use.
- Union Pacific asked a federal judge this week to declare it has the authority to install the cameras under the railroad's existing labor agreements. Kansas City Southern railroad won a similar lawsuit last month over the objections of labor unions.
The National Transportation Safety Board recommended installing the inward-facing cameras to monitor crews after the 2008 collision of a Metrolink commuter train and a Union Pacific train in southern California that killed 25 and injured more than 100.
Metrolink did install cameras after that crash, which was blamed on a distracted Metrolink engineer sending text messages.
Omaha-based Union Pacific wasn't ready to install cameras until this year because the railroad had to determine how the footage would be used and how the cameras would be installed on its fleet of more than 8,000 locomotives, spokesman Tom Lange said.
In recent years, the dangers of distracted railroad conductors have been highlighted by crashes like the Metrolink collision and
this summer's crash in Spain that killed 79 people after the driver of a passenger train failed to slow down for a tight curve while talking on a cellphone.
The unions have argued that railroads should have to bargain with them over installing the cameras because it represents a change in working conditions. Officials with both unions declined to comment on Union Pacific's effort because they hadn't seen the court filing.
"Installation of inward-facing cameras will provide additional security for train crew employees, enhance compliance with KCSR and (Federal Railroad Administration) operating rules, and improve overall safety," Carlson said.
Kansas City Southern has been installing cameras in its locomotives ever since the July ruling that determined the issue didn't require bargaining with the unions, railroad spokeswoman Doniele Carlson said.
Union Pacific is making similar arguments in its court filing.
Union Pacific says it believes that adding the cameras will help prevent catastrophic crashes.
The United Transportation Union and Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers and Trainmen unions have both resisted efforts to install crew-monitoring cameras.

THE WHEEL

The Wheel is ranked third best college bar by USA Today.
The Wagon Wheel makes top college bars
KATIE MCBRIDE
kmcbride@kansan.com
At the Wagon Wheel, one of the University's favorite bars, years of memorabilia and pictures cover the walls. Sharpie signatures fill up the wooden booths and classic oldies spill from the jukebox. Everyone from current students to alums gathers to enjoy drinks and make and share memories.
The Wagon Wheel, more commonly known as The Wheel, was recently ranked third in a list of the best college bars in America by The Daily Meal. The rankings were determined by student requests and a point system based on factors such as drink selection, price, music and proximity to campus.
Rob Farha, who has owned the bar since 1997, said people enjoy the experience of The Wheel because of the sense of history and tradition that it encompasses. He said there have been only two physical changes to the building since it opened in 1955, and everything else has remained consistent.
"When alumni come back to visit on a game day or during homecoming, or while they're moving their son or daughter into the dorms, they want to stop by The Wheel because it brings them back to when they went to school here," Farha said. "They'll usually see someone they know or someone they went to school with, and they'll gather out on the patio and reminisce."
Although decades of classes of
University students have come and gone from campus, The Wheel has always remained the same. Farha said he hasn't changed even small things about the bar, such as the fact that they serve canned beer, because "that's the way things have always been," and have always worked.
"Every KU student has some sort of story or experience that involves the Wheel; it's a staple at KU," Martin said. "I think people enjoy the consistency, because it reminds us of our college years and time
Molly Martin, a 2012 graduate from the University, said returning to The Wheel reminds her of spending time there with her sorority sisters and ending nights with a slice of Wheel pizza.
at KU, and of what it was like. We always know what to expect when we visit."
New customers are drawn to The Wheel for the first time because they've heard about it, and because it's close to campus, Farha said. There have been just three owners since 1955, and each has had a passion for connecting with the customers to keep them coming back.
As far as he knows, Farha doesn't plan on changing anything anytime soon.
"I'm not trying to reinvent The Wheel," Farha said. "I want to keep it rolling."

CRIME
Family of suspect requests paternity tests
ASSOCIATED PRESS
SAN DIEGO — The family of a man suspected of kidnapping a 16-year-old girl and killing her mother and younger brother wants paternity tests to determine if the suspect fathered the children, a spokesman said Wednesday, a suggestion that was quickly rebutted by the victims' family.
Andrew Spanswick, a spokesman for the family of James Lee DiMaggio, said rumors have circulated on social media that DiMaggio fathered the children and that it was "a little strange" that the suspect named the girl's paternal grandmother as his life insurance beneficiary.
Lora Robinson, DiMaggio's sister and lone survivor of his immediate family, collected DNA from her brother and wants samples from Hannah Anderson and her brother to determine paternity, Spanswick
said. She has not yet asked for the samples but intends to at a later date.
"The biggest issue is, I think, that Lora wants closure on the case," Spanswick said. "As Lora has heard these rumors, she would like to confirm whether they are true or not."
Anderson family spokeswoman Stacy Hess said DiMaggio didn't meet the children's father and mother, Brett and Christina Anderson, un-
gio's burned home, Hess said.
Brett Anderson finds the suggestion that DiMaggio fathered the two children "disgusting." Hess said. She said the family had not yet received a DNA request directly from DiMaggio's family and declined further comment.
"In the beginning I was a victim, but now knowing everyone out there is helping me I consider myself a survivor instead."
Spanswick said the family's interest in paternity tests, which was first reported by KGTV in San Diego, has been "blown way out of proportion" by the media.

DiMaggio named Hannah's grandmother, Bernice Anderson, as the sole beneficiary of his employer-issued life insurance policy, making her eligible to receive $112,000, according to Spanswick, who believes the money was intended for Hannah.
Hannah Anderson gave her first news interview since her rescue to the NBC "Today" show. It was scheduled to air Thursday.

Security guard wins appeal, gets new trial
THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN
SAN JOSE, Costa Rica — Costa Rican authorities say a security guard who fatally shot an American teenager after mistaking him for an intruder will get a new trial after winning an appeal.
Jorge Guevara was sentenced last year to 15 years in prison for killing 16-year-old Justin Johnston of McLouth, Kansas, inside a hotel in La Fortuna de San Carlos.
Johnston and a group of his friends were returning to his room before dawn through a desolate area when Guevara spotted them and thinking they were thieves opened fire.
Court spokeswoman Marcela Fernandez confirmed Wednesday that Jorge Guevara won an appeal which argued the original trial didn't prove the guard intended to kill the teenager.
Johnston was on a trip to Costa Rica with a dozen other students in the school's Spanish club.

HISTORY
Reliving Quantrill, 150 years later
MARK ARCE
marce@kansan.com
August 21, 1863 is a date that resonates with many Lawrence natives. While the Civil War raged across the nation, citizens of Lawrence endured one of its most heartbreaking legacies: Quantrill's raid. The raid left 185 men and boys dead, and forever changed the city.
For this year's 150th anniversary of the raid, the city of Lawrence and historical organizations like the Watkins Museum of History look back at the stories that shaped Lawrence.
1863 Commemorate Lawrence is a website set up by the city that aggregates all the events happening around town to memorialize Quantrill's Raid.
Watkins opened a new exhibit integrating modern art interpretations of the raid with multimedia presentations and other displays that presented Kansas' history before, during and after
"I thought the new permanent exhibit was fascinating," said Caitlin Doornbs, a senior from Hutchinson, Kansas. She said the exhibit caught her attention because "seeing the charred floorboards from houses in Quantrill's Raid and seeing an original copy of the New York Times talking about the raid made the tragedy of that 1863 day seem much closer to home."

the raid.
Watkins also hosted the Kaw Valley Cornet Band, who added to the experience by playing music that was popular during the Civil War. The museum housed several other events, including a walking tour, a cemetery tour and lectures about the raid in the hopes of educating the public. Doornbos said that is important because everyone, especially students, can learn more about the city that surrounds them.

Manning sentenced to 35 years for leak
ASSOCIATED PRESS
FORT MEADE, Md. — Army Pfc. Bradley Manning stood at attention in his crisp dress uniform Wednesday and learned the price he will pay for spilling an unprecedented trove of government secrets up to 35 years in prison, the stiffest punishment ever handed out in the U.S. for leaking to the media.
Army Pfc. Bradley Manning is escorted into a courthouse in Fort Meade, Md., Aug 21, before a sentencing hearing in his court martial. The military judge oversees Manning's trial sentenced Bradley Manning to 35 years in prison for giving US secrets to Wikileaks.
ASSOCIATED PRESS
Flanked by his lawyers, Manning, 25, showed no reaction as military judge Col. Denise Lind announced the sentence without explanation in a proceeding that lasted just a few minutes.
A gasp could be heard among the spectators, and one woman buried her face in her hands. Then, as guards hurried Manning out of the courtroom, about a half-dozen supporters shouted from the back: "We'll keep fighting for you, Bradlew!" and "You're our hero!"
With good behavior and credit for the more than three years he has been held, Manning could be out in as little as seven years, said his lawyer, David Coombs. The soldier was also demoted and will be dishonorably discharged.
The sentencing fired up the long-running debate over whether Manning was a whistleblower or a traitor for giving more than 700,000 classified military and diplomatic documents, plus battlefield footage, to the anti-secrecy website WikiLeaks. By volume alone, it was
the biggest leak of classified material in U.S. history, bigger even than the Pentagon Papers a generation ago.
In a statement from London, WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange decried Manning's trial and conviction as "an affront to basic concepts of Western justice." But he called the sentence a "significant tactical victory" because the soldier could be paroled so quickly.
Manning could have gotten 90 years behind bars. Prosecutors asked for at least 60 as a warning to other soldiers, while Manning's lawyer suggested he get no more than 25, because some of the documents he leaked will be declassified by then.
Military prosecutors had no immediate comment on the sentence, and the White House said only that any request for a presidential parion would be considered "like any other application."
The case was part of an unprecedented string of prosecutions brought by the U.S. government in a crackdown on security breaches. The Obama administration has charged seven people with leaking to the media; only three people were prosecuted under all previous presidents combined.
Manning, an Army intelligence analyst from Crescent, Okla., digitally copied and released Iraq and Afghanistan battlefield reports and State Department cables while
working in 2010 in Iraq. He also leaked video of a 2007 Apache helicopter attack in Baghdad that mistakenly killed at least nine people, including a Reuters photographer.
Manning said he did it to expose the U.S. military's "bloodlust" and generate debate over the wars and U.S. policy.
He was found guilty by the judge last month of 20 crimes, including six violations of the Espionage
Act, but was acquitted of the most serious charge, aiding the enemy, which carried a potential life in prison without parole.
Whistleblower advocates said the punishment was unprecedented in its severity. Steven Aftergood of the Federation of American Scientists said "no other leak case comes close."
The American Civil Liberties Union and Amnesty International
and condemned the sentence.
Gabriel Schoenfeld, a senior fellow at the conservative Hudson
"When a soldier who shared information with the press and public is punished far more harshly than others who tortured prisoners and killed civilians, something is seriously wrong with our justice system," said Ben Wizner, head of the ACLU's speech and technology project.
Institute think tank and author of the book "Necessary Secrets," welcomed Manning's punishment.
"The sentence is a tragedy for Bradley Manning, but it is one he brought upon himself," he said. "It will certainly serve to bolster deterrence against other potential leakers."
Coombs said Manning will seek a presidential pardon or a commuted sentence.

Friends mourn slain man
Twenty-three-year-old Aaron Boyer, who lives nearby, sits by the memorial for slain Australian Christopher Lane while out for a run in Duncan, Okla., Aug. 20. Lane, who was on a baseball scholarship at East Central University in Ada, Okla., was in Duncan, Okla., visiting his girlfriend, when he was shot and killed Aug. 16.
ASSOCIATED PRESS
ADA, Okla. — Chris Lane traveled from Australia to the United States for the love of the game—and the opportunity to secure a college degree while playing America's pastime. On the small campus of East Central University in Oklahoma, he made a home for himself in class and on the baseball field.
The 22-year-old Melbourne native, who hoped to work in real estate when he graduated next May, was fatally shot in the back last week while jogging along a tree-lined street near his girlfriend's home in Duncan. Three boys—ages 15, 16 and 17 — are charged with what prosecutors call a thrill killing, while those who knew Lane in the U.S. and Australia are trying to come to grips with the random attack.
"He achieved a lot for a 22-year-old," his father, Peter Lane, told The
Telegraph in Sydney, Australia. "He gave up a lot to follow his dream."
Lane started 14 games at catcher last year, and was entering his senior year. His coach, Dino Rosato, said in a statement that Lane was a joy to coach, and other teammates looked to him for advice and support. He hit .250 for the ECU Tigers last season, a figure that's OK but not a number that would attract scouts from professional clubs — but that's not what Lane was also.
Lane went for a jog Friday afternoon and was shot once in the back. He died along a road on Duncan's well-to-do north side. Prosecutors said the three teens, from the gutters part of town, chose Lane at random and that one of the boys "thinks it's all a joke."
"Chris was talented enough to play baseball, but he used that as a pathway to a collegiate education," Athletic Director Jeff Williams said on a tribute page.
On Tuesday, Chancey Allen Luna, 16, and James Francis Edwards, Jr., 15, of Duncan, were charged with first-degree murder. Under Oklahoma law they will be tried as adults. Michael Dewayne Jones, 17, of Duncan, was charged with using a vehicle in the discharge of a weapon and with accessory to first-degree murder after the fact. He is considered a youthful offender but will be tried in adult court.
Police have said the 17-year-old told authorities the boys were "bored" and decided to kill someone for the "fun of it."
Autopsy results released Wednesday say Lane died from a "penetrating gunshot wound to back."
"Not a lot of people would move half way around the world to get an education and build a better life but he did," Malchar said.
Teammate Sam Malchar said Lane was someone who could always be counted on.

Gay marriage allowed in New Mexico
ASSOCIATED PRESS
ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. — Gay couples rushed to a courthouse in Las Cruces on Wednesday after the county clerk decided to issue same-sex marriage licenses in a surprise move that came as several legal challenges on the practice make their way through the courts.
"I was in a coffee shop grading dissertations when my partner sent me an email saying, 'You want to get married?'" said Char Ullman, 51. "I went home to brush my teeth and headed to the courthouse."
Dona Ana County Clerk Lynn Ellins said his office had provided 33 licenses to same-sex couples.
"It's a happy office today. Lots of happy people," he said.
Ellins said he had carefully read state laws and concluded the "state's marriage statutes are gender neutral and do not expressly prohibit Dona Ana County from issuing marriage licenses to same-gender couples."
Later in the day, New Mexico Attorney General Gary King said he had no plans to challenge the move by Ellins or another other county clerks who might allow the practice.
Ellins said he had been considering issuing the licenses since June, when King released a position paper saying state laws don't allow same-sex marriage. King had asked county clerks to hold off on issuing
licenses, even though he thinks the laws are unconstitutional.
Ellins, however, said "any further denial of marriage licenses to these couples violates the United States and New Mexico Constitution and the New Mexico Human Rights Act."
"I see no reason to make committed couples in Dona Ana County wait another minute to marry; he added in his statement.
King said Wednesday that "we feel like our position that the law is unconstitutional presents a barrier to us from bringing any action." Still, he warned that marriages issued by county clerks could become invalid if the state Supreme Court later rules that same-sex marriage is not allowed.
County and city officials around the country have taken it upon themselves in recent years to issue same-sex licenses, with one of the first and most highly publicized cases in San Francisco in 2004.
The city issued the licenses for about a month before being ordered by courts to stop. The marriages were eventually invalidated. But gay marriage is now legal in that state.
Dona Ana County became the first county in New Mexico to actively issue same-sex licenses since a Sandoval County clerk issued 64 licenses to same-sex couples in 2004. Thin-Attorney General Patricia Madrid soon declared the licenses were invalid and a court later ordered the clerk to stop.
Ullman and her longtime partner, Carrie Hamblen, 45, were among the two dozen or so same sex couples to receive marriage licenses Wednesday.
"People started clapping as soon as we walked in," Ullman said. "And more are coming from Albuquerque trying to make it here by this afternoon."
On Tuesday, a same-sex couple from Santa Fe asked the New Mexico Supreme Court to streamline the handling of lawsuits seeking to legalize gay marriage in the state.
State Rep. Brian Egolf, D-Santa Fe, a lawyer who represents the couple, said the goal is to get a quick lower court decision and clear the way for an expedited ruling by the state's highest court.
The justices were being asked to consolidate all cases involving the issue and assign a district court judge in Santa Fe, who would issue a ruling that would go directly to the state Supreme Court for review.
Santa Fe County Clerk Geraldine Salazar said she does not plan on issuing marriage licenses to same-sex couples because of pending lawsuits.
"I believe it's in the right place — the courts," Salazar said.
Twitter Tuesdays!
Tune-in to Tuesday Tweets and Save!
@DBCLawrence
Couples in Bernalillo County — the state's largest county and the location of Albuquerque — also are part of a lawsuit seeking to have same-sex marriage recognized in that county.
Bernalillo County Clerk Maggie Toulouse Oliver said she was conferring with attorneys but not planning to follow Dona Ana County.
Meanwhile, the American Civil Liberties Union of New Mexico filed an emergency request on Wednesday with the state's Second Judicial District Court to allow two women in Pojoaque, Jen Roper and Angelique Neuman, to legally marry immediately in Santa Fe County. The group said Jen Roper is suffering from terminally-ill brain cancer and is not expected to live long.

U.S. Forest Service burns through wildfire-fighting funds
I ASSOCIATED PRESS
GRANTS PASS, Ore. — Running out of money to fire wildfires at the peak of the season, the U.S. Forest Service is diverting $600 million from timber, recreation and other areas to fill the gap.
The nation's top wildfire-fighting agency was down to $50 million after spending $967 million so far this year, Forest Service spokesman Larry Chambers said Wednesday in an email.
Chambers says the $50 million the Forest Service has left is typically enough to pay for just a few days of fighting fires when the nation is at its top wildfire preparedness level, which went into effect Tuesday.
There are 51 large uncontained fires burning across the nation, making it tough to meet demands for fire crews and equipment.
Forest Service Chief Thomas Tidwell sent a letter Aug. 16 to regional foresters and other top officials telling them to come up with the cuts by Friday.
"I recognize that this direction will have significant effects on the public whom we serve and on our many valuable partners, as well as agency operations, target accomplishments and performance," he wrote. "I regret that we have to take this action and fully understand that it only increases costs and reduces efficiency."
It was the sixth time the Forest Service has had to divert funds since 2002, Chambers said.
The step comes as the Obama administration has been cutting spending on thinning national forests to prevent wildfires, and despite Congress creating a special wildfire reserve fund in 2009, known as the FLAME Act. Congress dedicated
$413 million to the reserve in fiscal 2010, but cut it to $290 million in 2011 and raised it to $315 million in fiscal 2012, according to Forests Service documents. This year it dropped to $299 million after sequestration.
"The Forest Service, when it lobbed for the FLAME Act, said, 'Look, if you give us this reserve fund for large fires, we won't need to raid other parts of our budget,' said Andy Stahl, director of the watchdog group
parts of its budget. That is giving the agency a blank check and it just keeps putting more zeros on it."
The mandatory budget cutting measure known as sequestration reduced the Forest Service budget 5 percent, forcing cuts of 500 firefighters and 50 engines.
"The fires that are ripping through Oregon and Idaho and California and the West are just proof that the fire prevention policy is broke."
Forest Service Employees for Environmental Ethics, "The Forest Service instead used up the FLAME money and is now using other
RON WYDEN
U.S. Senator, D-Oregon
Wildfire spending by other federal agencies takes the total to $1.2 billion so far this year, according to the National Interagency Fire Center in Boise, Idaho. That is more than half last year's total of $1.9 billion, and
fast-approaching the 10-year average of $1.4 billion. There have been 33,000 fires that have burned more than 5,300 square miles — an area
nearly the size of Connecticut.
Meanwhile, the Obama administration has been steadily cutting spending on thinning federal forests to reduce fire danger, and has proposed to cut even further. The acreage treated would drop from 1.8 million acres thinned in 2012, to 685,000 acres next year, according to the U.S.Department of Agriculture budget.
The Hazardous Fuels Reduction Program was $500 million last year, went down to $419 million this year under the automatic budget cuts, and has been proposed to go to $292 million next year.
"The fires that are ripping through Oregon and Idaho and California and the West are just proof that the fire prevention policy is broke," Sen. Ron Wyden, D-Ore., chairman of the Senate Natural Resources Committee, said from Lincoln City.
"There are years of neglect. The fuel load builds up and it gets hotter and hotter on the forest floor. Then you get something like a lightning strike and a big inferno. Then the bureaucracy takes money from the prevention fund to put the fires out and the problem gets worse. The cycle just repeats itself again and again."
Wyden said he and other senators would be working hard this fall to overcome pressures to cut spending in order to restore funding for wildfire prevention.
AGRICULTURE
Christopher Topik, a director of Restoring America's Forests for The Nature Conservancy, said he could not fault Tidwell for diverting money to wildfires.
"We can't allow our towns and forests to all burn down," he said. "It's also irresponsible not to fund (prevention efforts) because it is an expected disaster."
Farmers harvest hay after recent rains
ASSOCIATED PRESS
WICHITA — Hay fields across Kansas have finally dried off enough after recent rainfalls kept farmers from getting into them this week to cut overgrown alfalfa crops and mow lush prairie grasses to put up as feed for livestock this winter. At the Agriculture Department's office in Dodge City, the agency's hay market reporter Steve Hessman said he is hearing from producers who are cutting as much as two tons of hay per acre from this third cutting of alfalfa — twice as much as normal for August across much of the state. But then a normal August in Kansas is hot and dry, not cool and wet as it has been in recent weeks.
"It is going to be a good cutting tonnage wise or quantity wise, whichever way you want to put that," Hessman said. "Quality — we are not sure because most of it is past the prime for maturity and, of course, it could still get rain damaged. And in some cases we've seen weeds growing up because of the extra moisture."
All that rain that had kept producers out of their alfalfa fields at the peak time to harvest for this third cutting meant much of it has
grown too mature, too rank and, for some, with too much pig weed in it, he said.
While there is going to be a lot more of the lower-quality hay — typically used for grinding or stock cows — there is not going to be a lot of the top quality, dairy hay that milking cows need.
In a typical growing season, Kansas gets four cuttings of alfalfa — with the first and last cuttings typically producing the top-quality hay sought by dairy producers. But late spring frosts and drought this year hurt alfalfa crops, setting plants back so much that the state essentially did not have much of a first cutting of alfalfa and just a modest second cutting.
The recent rains have also affected the market for prairie hay, which is usually cut in July, because the grasses now being harvested are more mature and the stems on them are getting harder, he said.
Statewide, this third cutting of alfalfa could potentially be larger than all the other cuttings put together this season, Hessman said. But while most growers benefited from the rains, the drought for the most part persists in far western Kansas.

Tuition jumps for fifth-year students
JENNIFER SALVA
jsalva@kansan.com
Undergraduates who take more than four years to earn their degree are faced with a steep increase in tuition starting their ninth semester. The University's freshman tuition compact guarantees first-time freshmen fixed tuition rates for four years, then bills students the current tuition rate in their fifth year of study. First-time freshmen are students who have never attended another college or university.
For in-state students beginning their fifth year of study this fall, the cost per credit hour is $63.75 more than the amount they paid their freshman year and the three years after. If a fifth-year senior takes 12 credit hours, that adds up to $765 more each semester than previously paid according to the Fiscal Year 2008-2009 and Fiscal Year 2013-2014 budget proposals. The Office of Financial Aid declined to comment.
Looking back at his education, Swartz is glad he took additional time to graduate in spite of higher fees.
"I spent some time hopping between schools and it was something that wasn't mentioned to me," Swartz said. "I finally learned about it from another student and at that point it was 'Oh well.' Life goes on but I have a bigger bill. Good luck collecting it."
James Swartz graduated last May with a bachelor's degree in Film and Media Studies and a minor in journalism as a sixth-year senior. Swartz didn't learn about the locked-in tuition rate until he was already enrolled.
Swartz didn't plan on taking more than four years to graduate at first. Although he knew he wanted to work in media, he spent time deciding what he enjoyed best.
"I look at where I was at the end of my senior year and at the end of my school career, and I have a lot more confidence in my ability to
succeed plus a better understanding of my field," he said.
Jon Marzette, a fifth-year graphic design major began his time at the University in 2009 after transferring from the Kansas City Art Institute, and expects to graduate in May of 2014. He was not aware of the four-year tuition lock until he began his fourth year of study.
"I don't feel too many positive vibes towards the lock, but I can semi-understand why the University would choose to do that." Marzette said. "It makes people actually get in and get out of school based on budget. But for me personally, I don't feel too fond for it."
Fortunately for students, there are several ways to combat growing tuition rates. Peggy Johnson, a financial advisor at Ameriprise Financial in Lawrence and a graduate of the University of Kansas School of Business, said students should look at as many financial options as possible.
"Planning ahead is the biggest
thing [students] can do", Johnson said. Public college budgets are tight, she said, and it is going to continue to be that way. She recommends working during summer months, exploring work-study programs and conducting an extensive scholarship search.
Finaid.org is a good place to start. Johnson said.
Johnson emphasized the importance of completing FAFSA applications as early as possible, because students may qualify for more awards than those who apply later as funds run out. She warns, however, to spend those student loans wisely.
"I probably see the weakest link as students who spend financial aid on things other than tuition, books, room and board," Johnson said. "Be judicious about how much you borrow. A lot of students could come out with a lot less debt."

In this November 1988 photo Kansas sculptor Jim Brothers stands in his Lawrence studio with "Across the Beach," one of several bronze sculptures he has created for National D-Day Memorial in Bedford, Va.
Brothers is best known for two projects — creating a sculpture of Dwight Eisenhower that's on display at the Capitol in Washington and as the chief sculptor for the National D-Day Memorial in Bedford, Va., said Paul Dorrrell, who represented Brothers and owns the Leopold Gallery in Kansas City. Dorrell said the D-Day contract, which included 12 monumental bronzes and was worth $1.6 million, had a "huge impact on his career."
Jim Brothers died Tuesday at his home in Lawrence where he had been received hospice care, said Audrey Bell, a funeral director at Warren McElwain Mortuary in Lawrence. Friends and colleagues said he had cancer.
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — A Kansas artist whose bronze sculptures are on display in the nation's capital and at historical monuments around the country has died. He was 72.
Renowned sculptor dies in Kansas home
Dorrell and Brothers met in 1991 after a friend said the artist needed representation.
"I saw that Jim had an ability
to communicate raw emotion in bronze that I had never encountered in a regional artist before," he said.
One of his first big monument was one honoring the Civilian Conservation Corp in Griffith Park in Los Angeles. That was followed by a monument of Mark Twain in Hartford, Conn., where Twain lived for about two decades. Along the way, companies, including Boeing, and well known private individuals, including filmmaker Steven Spielberg and the late "Peanuts" creator Charles Schulz also acquired pieces from Brothers.
Kathy Correll, his wife and business manager, said his final piece — a memorial to William Inge, the Kansas playwright who wrote the Pulitzer Prize-winning play "Picnic" — was completed literally days before he died."
"He was a professional until the end," she said. "It was important to make deadlines and complete his commissions. That was a goal of his. He literally was working on it from his bed dead."

Students injured in bus accident
BONNER SPRINGS, Kan.
BONNER SPRINGS, Kan. — One of two buses taking Missouri sixth-graders to an annual campout overturned in northeast Kansas on Wednesday, injuring at least 20 of those onboard, including the driver.
The bus, which was carrying sixth-grade girls from Pembroke Hills School, overturned when it failed to make it a sharp curve on a highway ramp in Bonner Springs, about 20 miles west of the city, said Kansas Highway Patrol Trooper Howard Dickinson. Their male classmates at the Kansas City, Mo., private school were on the other bus.
None of the injuries were life-threatening, but 20 of the 36 people onboard, including the driver, were taken to hospitals for treatment of injuries ranging from bruises to

Student raises recovery funds
EMMA LEGAULT
elegualt@kansan.com
The University now has a different meaning for Eleanor Cizek. For her, it's more than just a campus, classes and a home away from home. Today, it's a goal: a crucial step on the road to recovering from a traumatic brain injury.
On Jan. 9 during a ski trip in Colorado, Cizek, a sophomore from St. Paul, Minn., hit a padded pole and slipped into a week-long coma. After she awoke, she and her family began the process of supporting and advocating for her as she began an extensive rehabilitation journey to regain physical and cognitive stability.
Now, seven months later, Cizek is able to move and communicate, but her short-term memory and cognitive processes haven't caught up quite yet. And after her family learned their insurance had cut off and wouldn't cover the one-on-one, intensive therapy she needs, they sprang into action.
The Joy Recovery Project, which takes its name from Cizek's middle name, was started by her family to raise the approximately $250,000 to send Cizek to Quality Living, Inc. a rehab facility in Omaha, Neb. Cizek spent one month at QLI before the insurance coverage ran out.
Morethan 1,000 of Cizek's friends and family members gathered at a Joy Recovery Project fundraiser on Aug. 10 in Cizek's hometown to help her meet that goal. The event raised $252,805 for the next phase
of Cizek's care.
While QLI isn't the only institute that specializes in cognitive therapy, its individualized treatment plans make it the best, according to her siblings Zach and Jessa Cizek. There, Cizek will complete tasks, such as note-taking on an iPad and keeping track of personal finances, with the goal in mind that she will one day return to being completely independent.
"They help her to push her brain to the next level so she can get better and get back to where she was," Jessa said.
"I want to go back to how I was and go back to how I am, but I can't because of the injury."
The program at QLI is not only designed to fit Cizek's needs, but her interests as well. At home, Cizek loves spending time with her two dogs, Bear and Isaac, and getting a workout in on the treadmill at Anytime Fitness. At QLI, she'll be able to volunteer at the Humane Society and take trips to the YMCA to train for a half-marathon in November.
Ellie, now we're going to give it back and help others to get where she is and keep on going." Zach said.
ELEANOR CIZKE
Sophomore from St. Paul, Minn.
"We got our ducks in a row, now we're ready to rock and get her back here," Zach said.
Watching their sister take strides in recovery prompted the secondary purpose of the Joy Recovery Project: to raise awareness and support others going through the same process.
"We've been able to do a lot for
Although each case is different, the two years following a traumatic brain injury are a crucial recovery period for patients. Intensive, postacute rehab is required so recovery is maximized and the greatest possible amount of thinking, language, memory and emotional processes can be regained. Insurance companies aren't responsible to cover this phase, except in the state of Texas.
The youngest of four, Cizek would follow her siblings around and aspire to do everything like them as a child. She threw her family a
curveball when she decided the University of Kansas was where she wanted to go for college.
"Coming to Kansas was my place, it was my own experience," Cizek said. "Kansas was Ellie Cizek."
She became a member of the Kappa Kappa Gamma sorority and found her family away from home. Jillian Pfaff, a junior from Overland Park, said she and her sorority sisters always talk about Cizek's bright blue eyes and her thick Minnesota accent.
"She always has to say 'bag' for us," Pfaid said.
The people she meets and spends time with are drawn to Cizek's warm, welcoming personality.
"At Kappa, we always have morning chats, and Ellie is the first one to get everyone in the hallway, like 'Come on! Get up!' Pfaff said. "She just likes being around everyone."
Cizek hopes to return to her home at the University as soon as she can. However, the journey of recovering from a TBI is strenuous and grueling, and while she has taken strides, it has taken a toll on Cizek.
"For me, it's taken too long," Cizek said. "There are big changes that I want to make, but it’s happening in small pieces. I want to be myself. I want to go back to how I was and go back to how I am, but I can’t because of the injury. I can’t be myself quite yet until I’ve recovered fully."
While the process has brought her family closer together, they're sympathetic to her frustration. Although it's unclear at this point whether Cizek will completely regain her cognitive skills, they hope she will progress at QLI and make the most of her recovery during this critical two-year period.
The one constant that Cizek and her support system have is their positive attitudes, especially Cizek's.
"I've never seen anything like it," Pfaff said. "I get mad at little things, and it makes me realize I don't have anything to worry about."
Jessa agreed.
"Every day she comes a little bit farther," Jessa said.

In this citizen journalism photo provided by the Local Committee of Arbeen, which has been authenticated based on its contents and other AP reporting, a man and woman mourn over the dead bodies of Syrian men after an alleged poisonous gas attack fired by regime forces, according to activists in Arbeen town, Damascus, Syria, Wednesday. Syrian regime forces fired intense artillery and rocket barrages Wednesday on the eastern suburbs of the capital Damascus, in what two pro-opposition groups claimed was a "poisonous gas" attack that killed dozens of people.
Syrian government denies gas attacks
ASSOCIATED PRESS
BEIRUT — The images showed lifeless children — wrapped in simple white cloths, their pale faces unmarked by any wound — lined up shoulder to shoulder in a vivid demonstration of an attack Wednesday in which activists say the Syrian regime killed at least 130 people with toxic gas.
The Syrian government adamantly denied using chemical weapons in an artillery barrage targeting suburbs east of Damascus, calling the allegations "absolutely baseless." The U.S., Britain and France demanded that a team of U.N. experts already in the country be granted immediate access to investigate the claims.
Videos and photographs showed row upon row of bodies wrapped in white shrouds lying on a tile floor, including more than a dozen children. There was little evidence of blood or conventional injuries and most appeared to have suffocated. Survivors of the purported attack, some twitching uncontrollably, lay on gurnees with oxygen masks covering their faces.
Activists and the opposition leadership gave widely varying
For months now, the rebels, along with the United States, Britain and France, have accused the Syrian government of using chemical weapons in its campaign to try to snuff out the rebellion against President Bashar Assad that began in March 2011. The regime and its ally, Russia, have denied the allegations, blaming the rebels.
death tolls, ranging from as low as 136 to as high as 1,300. But even the most conservative tally would make it the deadliest alleged chemical attack in Syria's civil war.
The murky nature of the purported attacks, and the difficulty of gaining access to the sites amid the carnage of Syria's war, has made it impossible to verify the claims. After months of negotiations, a U.N. team finally arrived in Damascus on Sunday to begin its investigation into the alleged use of chemical weapons in Syria. But the probe is limited to three sites and only seeks to determine whether chemical agents were used, not who unleashed them.
The timing of Wednesday's attack — four days after the U.N. team's arrival — raised questions about why the regime would use chemical agents now.
Almost exactly one year ago, President Barack Obama called chemical weapons a "red line" for potential military action, and in June, the U.S. said it had conclusive evidence that Assad's regime had used chemical weapons against opposition forces.
The White House said the U.S. was "deeply concerned" by the reports, and spokesman Josh Earnest said the Obama administration had requested that the U.N. "urgently investigate this new allegation."
But the possibility of intervention seemed ever smaller after Gen. Martin Dempsey, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, said in a letter this week that the administration is opposed to even limited action because it believes rebels fighting the Assad government wouldn't support American interests.
Russia decried Wednesday's reports as "alarmist." Foreign Ministry spokesman Alexander Luka
shevich denounced an "aggressive information campaign" laying full blame on the Syrian government as a provocation aimed at undermining efforts to convene peace talks between the two sides.
The regime began shelling the capital's eastern suburbs of Zamalka, Arbeen and Ein Tarma around 3 a.m. as part of a fierce government offensive in the area, which has a strong rebel presence, according to the Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights monitoring group.
The heavy thud of artillery and rockets, as well as the grinding roar of fighter jets, could be heard by Damascus residents throughout the night and early Wednesday, and a pall of gray smoke hung over the towns.
Observatory director Rami Abdul-Rahman cited activists in the area who said "poisonous gas" was fired in rockets as well as from the air. He said that he had documented at least 136 deaths, but said it was not clear whether the victims died from shelling or toxic gas.

In this July 4, 2012 photo, Delaware Attorney General Beau Biden, right, takes a walk with his father, Vice President Joe Biden, to the Green Ridge Little Baseball Field in Scranton, Pa. Beau Biden is being evaluated at a cancer center in Texas, according to people with knowledge of his condition.
Beau Biden released from cancer center
DOVER, Del. — Delaware Attorney General Beau Biden, the eldest son of Vice President Joe Biden, underwent a medical procedure at a Texas cancer center on Tuesday and will be returning soon to his home state, the vice president's office said Wednesday.
In a statement released by the White House, Vice President Biden and his wife Jill said Beau Biden underwent "a successful procedure," but they did not provide any details.
"He is in great shape and is going to be discharged tomorrow and heading home to Delaware," the statement read. "He will follow up with his local physicians in the coming weeks."
The White House declined to answer any questions about what procedure was performed, including whether it was diagnostic or therapeutic in nature.
Beau Biden, 44, was hospitalized last week after becoming weak and disoriented while on a family vacation in Indiana.
Biden was initially admitted to Northwestern Memorial Hospital in Chicago. He traveled the next day to the Philadelphia hospital where he had been treated for a minor stroke in 2010 to consult with his doctor. He spent last weekend at home in Wilmington before going to Houston, where he was admitted to the University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center this week.
The Delaware Department of Justice released a statement saying the younger Biden had spoken Wednesday afternoon with his chief deputy and with the state prosecutor about several issues, including efforts to fight violent crime in Wilmington, and that he would speak with them again on Thursday after returning to Wilmington.
The vice president's office said Beau Biden will fly to Delaware on Air Force Two on Thursday as his father returns to Wilmington, Del.
It was not immediately clear when Beau Biden would return to work. Jason Miller, a spokesman for the Delaware Department of Justice, declined to elaborate beyond the written statement. Beau Biden was not available for comment.
A hospital spokeswoman said Wednesday afternoon that officials had no information beyond what was in the statement released by Joe Biden's office.
Authorities in Delaware,however, confirmed that emergency responders were called to the vice president's house,where Beau Biden has been living,two weeks ago.
A county dispatch center log indicates that on Aug. 1, someone at the vice president's home was reported to be possibly having a stroke and apparently not alert. Beau Biden has been staying at his father's Greenville home while his own house is renovated.
Rickie Clark, a staff supervisor with the Cranston Heights Fire Co., confirmed Wednesday that county dispatchers received a call for help from the vice president's home. However, he refused to provide further details.
The dispatch log on the fire department's website shows two references to the vice president's home on Aug. 1, one at 9:25 p.m. and another about a minute and a half later. Both cite "Cva-Not Alert," indicating that a person was in distress and apparently not alert or responsive to his or her surroundings. Clark said "Cva" is shorthand for cerebrovascular accident, or stroke.
The younger Biden has posted two photos of himself in recent days — one of him smiling with his father on Sunday, the other of him smiling with his wife, Hallie, on Tuesday.
"Touched by all your well wishes--thank you. Nice evening in Houston w/ Hallie; will share update when we have it," said the tweet accompanying the photo with his wife.

In this June 18,1973 file photo, Soviet leader Leonid I. Brezhnev, left, whispers in the ear of President Richard M. Nixon as the two leaders stand on a balcony at the White House. It was the only summit ever recorded on an American presidential facing point.
National Archives releases final 340-hour installment of recordings of Nixon's private phone calls and meetings
National Archives ASSOCIATED PRESS
TORBA LINDA, Calif. — President Richard Nixon had just delivered his first major national address on the Watergate scandal that ultimately cost him the White House when the calls of support began pouring in.
Audio tapes released Wednesday show that within hours of the speech on April 30,1973,the beleaguered 37th president heard from Ronald Reagan, George H.W. Bush and evangelist Billy Graham.
The calls were captured on a secret recording system that Nixon
used to tape 3,700 hours of phone calls and private meetings in his executive offices between February 1971 and July 1973.
The final chronological installment of those tapes — 340 hours — were posted online by the National Archives and Records Administration as part of a release that also includes more than 140,000 pages of text documents. Another 700 hours of tapes remain sealed for national security and privacy reasons.
Since 2007, the National Archives has released hundreds of hours of the tapes, offering the public an unvarnished and sometimes shocking view of the inner workings of Nixon's administration and insight into the president's private musings on everything from Watergate to Vietnam.
Wednesday's release did not include significant new material on Watergate, but did show the incredible strain on Nixon in the summer of 1973 with the growing scandal stemming from the 1972 breakin at Democratic headquarters by burglar ties to the president's reelection committee.
The day Nixon gave his speech,
two top White House staffers, H.R.
Haldeman and John Ehrlichman.
had resigned, as well as Attorney
General Richard Kleindienst.
In the speech, Nixon said he was not aware of or connected to the Watergate break-in. He said he supported punishment for those involved in possible criminal actions and accepted responsibility for ceding the authority of his campaign to others whose "zeal exceeded their judgment and who may have done wrong in a cause they deeply believed to be right."
White House counsel John W. Dean III was also fired that day, a special Senate committee to probe Watergate was being formed and a
special Watergate prosecutor would be assigned within weeks.
Reagan, who called late that night, reassured a needy Nixon that the speech was the right one to make during such a crisis.
"I just want you to know, we watched and my heart was with you. I know what this must have been and what this must have been in all these days and what you've been through," Reagan said.
"You can count on us, we're still behind you out here and I wanted you to know that you're in our prayers."
At the end of the call, Reagan
told Nixon: "This too shall pass."
That evening, Bush, who had recently been appointed chairman of the Republican National Committee, called to say he had watched the speech with "great pride."
This time, however, an angry and exhausted-sounding Nixon complained to Bush about the reaction from TV commentators.
"The folks may understand," Nixon said, before adding later: "To hell with the commentators."
The following year, Bush would privately write Nixon a letter urging him to resign, which he did on Aug. 9, 1974.

Dolphin trainer investigates recent deaths
ASSOCIATED PRESS
BRIGANTINE, N.J. — Once upon a time, he was known as Capt. Bob, the man who trained the dolphins and seals to perform for crowds in Atlantic City.
But as he got to know the dolphins, Bob Schoelkopf renounced keeping them in captivity and devoted the rest of his life to rescuing stranded marine mammals.
Now the man who once prodred dolphins to wave their fins for crowds is part of a broad scientific effort to determine why dolphins are dying by the hundreds.
"It's worst when you get a female come ashore and she's lactating and you see the milk come out onto
the stretcher," said Schoolkopf, codirector of the Marine Mammal Stranding Center. "That means there's a baby out there swimming around without a mother. That baby is going to become shark bait."
So far this summer, there have been about 230 dolphin deaths along the East Coast, prompting the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration to declare an unusual mortality event. That clears the way for an intensive scientific inquiry into what is causing the deaths.
No definitive conclusions have been reached, but many suspect the morbilli virus. The naturally occurring virus was ultimately blamed for the last major dolphin die-off, in 1987, when 740 dolphins died.
This year, several of the dolphins that washed ashore in New Jersey have tested positive for the virus.
The waves of dead dolphins started appearing in New Jersey in early July, and it hasn't let up.

German snorkeler dies after shark attack
THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN
ASSOCIATED PRESS
HONOLULU — A German woman who lost her arm in a shark attack died Wednesday, one weel after she was bitten while snorkeling off Maui.
Jana Lutteropp, 20, who had been on life support, died at Maui Memorial Medical Center, hospital spokeswoman Carol Clark said.
"Jana fought hard to stay alive," said a statement from her mother and sister, which was released by Clark. "However, we are sad to say that she lost her fight today."
Clark said the family was requesting privacy.
Chairman William Aila of the Hawaii Department of Land and Natural Resources, center, speaks to reporters at a news conference in Honolulu on Tuesday Hawaii officials plan to spend the next two years studying tiger shark movements around Maui amid what they call an unprecedented spike in overall shark attacks since the start of 2012.
Lutteropp was snorkeling up to 100 yards off Palauea Beach at the resort community of Makena when the shark bit off her right arm.
ASSOCIATED PRESS
A high school teacher visiting from California jumped into the water after hearing her screaming and seeing blood in the surf. Rick Moore, 57, of Laguna Niguel, Calif., said Lutteropp went in and out of consciousness and kept repeating that she was going to die.
MICHAEL F. GILBERT
It's not known what type of shark bit Lutteropp. State officials investigating the attack said witnesses didn't see the animal.
"jana was a very beautiful, strong, young woman who was always laughing, and we will forever remember her that way," said the statement from her mother, Jutta Lutteropp and sister, Julia Broeske.
They asked that donations in her memory be made to the Maui Memorial Medical Center Foundation.
"We appreciate all the support from the Maui community, as well as the prayers and thoughts from around the world and in Germany," they said. "We especially want to thank the wonderful caregivers and everyone at Maui Memorial Medical Center."
After the attack, Moore's friend Nicholas Grisaffi stood in neck-high water and took Lutteropp from Moore, carrying her limp body out of the water. They said Wednesday they've been praying for her.
"Rick risked his life," said Grisaff, 61, of Laguna Beach, Calif. "Did I do enough? Should I have grabbed my fins and swam out with him?"
Grisaffi said he's been replaying the ordeal in his mind.
"I was really hoping it would be a miracle and she would pull through," Moore said.
The last time someone in Hawaii died from a shark attack was in 2004, when a tiger shark bit Willis McLennan in the leg while he was
surfing 100 yards off Maui. McInnis suffered severe blood loss and died on the shore despite rescue efforts by beachgoers, police and paramedics. The last fatal attack before that was in 1992.
Hawaii officials announced Tuesday they plan to spend the next two years studying tiger shark movements around Maui amid what they call an unprecedented spike in overall shark attacks since the start of 2012
There have been eight attacks

A McNair High School staff member works on a welcome sign for Ronald E. McNair Discovery Learning Academy students on Wednesday a day after an armed suspect caused an ordeal at their school in Decatur, Ga., A gunman armed one of two staff members captive and fired into the floor of the school office.

But Michael Brandon Hill was quiet and didn't display anger or violent tendencies, said Natasha Knotts, the woman who took him in after he started coming to the small church where her husband is pastor and she is an assistant pastor. No one was injured in Tuesday's standoff, bringing relief to parents who had feared the worst after reports of the gunfire began surfacing.
The DeKalb County Public Defender's office said in a statement that it was representing Hill and that he has "a long history of mental health issues." One of the office's attorneys, Claudia Saari, said in an email that a preliminary hearing is scheduled for Sept. 5.
Knotts told The Associated Press on Wednesday that Hill, who is now 20, lived with them for about six months in his late teens. Though there is no blood or legal connection between them, Knotts said she served as a mother-like figure to Hill.
Police gave more details on Wednesday about the previous day's ordeal and what led up to it. Before going to the school, investigators say that Hill took a photo of himself with an assault rifle and packed up nearly 500 rounds of ammunition — enough to shoot more than half of the school's students.
"He was part of our family," Knotts said. Her family was aware that "he had a mental disorder" before he moved in.
Hill told her that his birth mother was dead and that he didn't know his father. He also has brothers.
Police said Hill got the gun from an acquaintance, but it's not clear if he stole it or had permission to take it.
Although no one was injured,
the suspect exchanged gunfire
with police who surrounded Ronald E. McNair Discovery Learning
Academy in Decatur, located a few
miles east of Atlanta. The school
has 870 students in pre-kindergarten
onto fifth grade.
"We have to make a reasonable assumption he was there to do harm to someone," said DeKalb County Police Chief Cedric L. Alexander.
Dramatic television footage showed lines of young students racing out of the building with police and teachers escorting them to safety. They sat outside in a field for a time until school buses came to take them to their parents at a nearby Wal-Mart.
DeKalb County Police Detective Ray Davis said Hill's motive was unclear. Hill had an address listed in court records about three miles from the school in Decatur, but no clear ties to the school.
Hill is charged with aggravated assault on a police officer, terroristic threats and possession of a firearm by a convicted felon. Police declined to discuss what he told them when questioned.
Hill held one or two staff members in the front office captive for a time, the police chief said, making one of them call a local TV station. At some point, he fired into the floor of the school office. As officers swarmed the campus outside, he shot at them at least a half a dozen times with an assault rifle
School bookkeeper Antoinette Tuff said she was one of the employees held hostage. Tuff told WSB-TV in Atlanta that she tried to keep Hill talking to prevent him from walking into the hallway or through the school building.
from inside the school and they returned fire, police said. Police came into the school office, and Hill surrendered.
"He had a look on him that he was willing to kill — matter of fact, he said it. He said that he didn't have any reason to live and that he knew he was going to die today," Tuff said.
EMPLOYMENT Part-time job fair showcases opportunities
Students looking for employment should stop by the University Career Center's part-time job fair on Aug. 26 from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m.on the 4th floor of the Kansas Union. There will be employers representing both on-campus and off-campus job opportunities.
Vanessa Newton, program manager for the University Career Center, said that roughly 30 different employers will be represented at the job fair, and they are specifically looking for University students to work local part-time jobs.
"We know from research that students who have a part-time job in college tend to have a higher GPA, higher four-year graduation rate, and have better time management skills," Newton said. "Students will also be gaining real-world work experience and transferable skills. Plus working a part-time job means a little bit of extra money which could mean less loans."

For those unable to make it to the fair, the University Career Center will have part-time jobs posted on their website at careerku.edu.
Newton said the Career Center will also host the University Career Fair in February, which will feature more than 100 employers.
"There are always employers looking for some part-time help and tons of opportunities to get involved and obtain some great transferable career skills," Newton said.

Research team to develop bully prevention program
LAWRENCE, Kan. — The state has chosen a research team from the University of Kansas to develop a program to prevent bullying in schools, some of which are having trouble implementing anti-bullying policies required by a 2007 state law.
The Kansas Department of Education awarded a contract to the researchers, who will develop a website and hold training sessions at schools across the state and create a model policy on bullying that schools can change to fit their specific circumstances. The Lawrence Journal-World reported.
Williford said the first step to building a sound policy is defining exactly what bullying is and then getting that message across to everyone in the school. To be considered bullying, the behavior has to occur over time and demonstrate a difference in status between the bully and victim. Williford said.
"Bullies have greater social status or are just generally more powerful among their peer group." Williford said. "Preying on weaker students helps them maintain that power."
"Some school districts have a comprehensive policy that they're fine tuning," said Anne Williford, an assistant professor of social welfare at Kansas and the lead researcher on the team. "Others have struggled to translate this particular law into a policy that works for their community."
After establishing the clear definition, Williford said schools need to implement consistent procedures for reporting bullying and for intervention. Those procedures need to be communicated to the entire community, she said.
The research team will begin providing training sessions for school district officials in October. The team will also develop a website with information for schools and communities about bullying and prevention.
The state passed a law in 2007 requiring such policies but some districts have faced obstacles, partly because intervention projects can be expensive.

Website connects students, local landlords
MEGAN KETCHAM
mketcham@kansan.com
Finding the perfect roommate can be difficult, especially as the start of a new semester approaches. For some students, turning to the Internet is the best way to find a roommate or sublease last minute.
The Housing Hawk, a locally owned, Craiglist-type website, seemed to be the best strategy for approximately 17,000 student renters this year. The Housing Hawk allows students to post free ads on the website or its Facebook page. Landlords and management companies in Lawrence also advertise their properties with the Housing Hawk to increase options for students.
Sally Burns founded the website in 2011. Between March and August of this year, the site had about 10,000 students and advertisers use the service.
"I started the Housing Hawk three years ago because I wanted students to have a resource to easily find accurate information about all of their off-campus housing options." Burns said.
Besides providing a student-

Burns's focus is giving students a personal experience by listening to their situations and needs. She said she tries to find the best choice for each student.
"What differentiates it is that students or renters call me and

NSA declassifies three court opinions
ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — The National Security Agency declassified three secret court opinions Wednesday showing how in one of its surveillance programs it scooped up as many as 56,000 emails and other communications by Americans not connected to terrorism annually over three years, revealed the error to the court — which ruled its actions unconstitutional — and then fixed the problem.
Director of National Intelligence James Clapper authorized the release, part of which Obama administration officials acknowledged Wednesday was prodded by a 2011 lawsuit filed by an Internet civil liberties activist group.

ernment's "upstream" collection of data taken from internal U.S. data sources was unconstitutional.
The court opinions show that when the NSA reported its inadvertent gathering of American-based Internet traffic to the court in September 2011, the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court ordered the agency to find ways to limit what it collects and how long it keeps it.
Three senior U.S. intelligence officials said Wednesday that national security officials realized the extent of the NSAs inadvertent collection of Americans' data from fiber optic cables in September 2011. One of the officials said the problem became apparent during internal discussions between NSA and Justice Department officials about the program's technical operation.
In an 85-page declassified FISA court ruling from October 2011, U.S. District Judge James D. Bates rebuked government lawyers for repeatedly misrepresenting the operations of the NSA's surveillance programs.
"This court is troubled that the government's revelations regarding NSA's acquisition of Internet transactions mark the third instance in less than three years in which the government has disclosed a substantial misrepresentation regarding the scope of a major collection program," Bates wrote in a footnoted passage that had portions heavily blacked out in the government's disclosure.
The NSA had moved to revise its Internet surveillance in an effort to separate out domestic data from its foreign targeted metadata — which includes email addresses and subject lines. But in his October 2011 ruling, Bates ruled that the gov-
The National Security Agency declassified three secret U.S. court opinions Aug. 21 showing how it scooped up as many as 56,000 emails and other communications by Americans with no connection to terrorism over three years. The NSA revealed the error to the court and changed how it gathered Internet communications.
"They were having a discussion and a light bulb went on," the official said.
ASSOCIATED PRESS
The problem, according to the officials, was that the top secret Internet-sweeping operation, which was targeting metadata contained in the emails of foreign users, was also amassing thousands of emails that were bundled up with the targeted materials. Because many web mail services use such bundled transmissions, the official said, it was impossible to collect the targeted materials without also sweeping up data from innocent domestic U.S. users.
The officials did not explain why they did not prepare for that possibility when the surveillance program was created and why they discovered it only after the program was well under way.
Officials said that when they realized they had an American communication, the communication was destroyed. But it was not clear how they determined to whom an email belonged and whether any NSA analyst had actually read the content of the email. The officials said the bulk of the information was never accessed or analyzed.
As soon as the extent of the problem became clear, the officials said, the Obama administration provided classified briefings to both Senate and House intelligence committees within days. At the same time, officials also informed the FISA court, which later issued the three
2011 rulings released Wednesday — with redactions — as part of the government's latest disclosure of documents.
The officials briefed reporters on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to describe the program publicly.
The documents were declassi
fied to help the Obama administration explain some of the most recent disclosures made by The Washington Post after it published classified documents provided by former NSA
But the FISA court's classified rulings have also been at issue in a two-year-old lawsuit filed against the government by the Electronic Frontier Foundation, an Internet civil liberties activist organization. In a decision in June, the FISA court ruled that its authority did not prevent the release of the ear-

lier 2011 opinion.
MARK UDALL
U.S. Senator, D-Colorado
A senior administration official acknowledged Wednesday that some of the documents released were in response to the lawsuit, while others were released
voluntarily. The official insisted on anonymity because he was not authorized to discuss the release with a reporter by name.
The release Wednesday of the FISA opinion, two other 2011 rulings and a secret "white paper"
on the NSA's surveillance came less than two weeks after a federal judge in Washington gave government lawyers a time extension in order to decide which materials to declassify. The EFF had been pressing for a summary judgment that would have compelled the government to release the secret FISA rulings, and the government's most recent extension expired Wednesday, the day it released the once-secret FISA court rulings.
While the NSA is allowed to keep the metadata — the address or phone number and the duration, but not the content, of the communication — of Americans for up to five years, the court ruled that when it gathered up such large packets of information, they included emails between American citizens, in violation of the Fourth Amendment.
channels, amounting to between 20 million to 25 million emails a year. The agency used statistical analysis to estimate that of those, possibly as many as 56,000 Internet communications collected were sent by Americans or persons in the U.S. with no connection to terrorism.
The NSA disclosed that it gathers some 250 million internet communications each year, with some 9 percent from these "upstream"
The disclosures were greeted with cautious optimism by Democratic Sen. Mark Udall of Colorado, who has sponsored legislation to curb some of the NSAs surveillance and serves on the Senate Intelligence Committee.
"I am glad the NSA is taking this step at owning its mistakes, but it is also a sign that we can and must do more to protect innocent Americans with no connection to terrorism from being monitored by our government — whether intentionally or not," Udall said Wednesday. "I will keep fighting to ensure that the NSA is not violating Americans' privacy rights."

Differing musical tastes build roommate relationships
How many days of school left?
opposites attract. We've all heard it before. We often use the phrase to justify and cope with the annoying antics of our counterparts, whether they are our best friends, boyfriends/girlfriends, or in this case, our roommates. When it comes to sharing a space with someone, being complete opposites may be problematic – messy vs. organized, morning vs. night person, studious vs. slacker
- however, when it comes to music, having different taste than your roommate can actually be a good thing.
Listening to different music than your roommate can introduce you to new artists and bands that you may have never heard or considered before – but that's obvious. Although broadening your musical knowledge is a good thing, a secondary benefit to having opposing tastes is that being
exposed to different sounds and genres can help improve your mood.
According to a study done by Emporia State, music has a strong influence on mood, and will often enhance a positive or negative emotion. I certainly can't be the only one who puts on The National's soothing songs when it's raining out and my bed is the only place I want to be. In this particular situation, I listen to this music for a reason – I'm not looking for a song to try and brighten my day but rather make me want to eat ice cream out of the carton even though I'm lactose intolerant.
To be honest, I listen to The National even on the sunniest of days. I just happen to love melancholy music and indie melodies that would put most people to sleep. Not to say I don't love upbeat music as well, I just
have a preference. My roommate has a preference too, though hers happens to be country and pop music - two genres that share the trait of being (for the most part) cheerful and optimistic.
By Lyndsey Havens ihavens@kansan.com
Perhaps I find country songs hard to relate to considering I grew up in the northern suburbs of Chicago, or perhaps I simply never got over the fact that I was thrown off a horse at age 7. Either way, I'm not a fan. My dislike for country music aside, the songs generally have decent lyrics with a catchy guitar twang in the background. Pop music is much the same, with somewhat less decent lyrics, but boasts a strong backbeat, usually incorporating an electronic bass that makes me feel like I'm stuck inside of a pinball machine.
While I wouldn't be likely to choose a country or pop song on my own, I will say that I have never complained when my roommate puts one on. Rather than inducing my (occasional) mope mood with music that drones on, the change of pace is often appreciated. Going from The National to icona Pop is surely a 180, but it serves as a nice reminder that I am in fact a 90s chick and have not yet retired to a rocking chair. At times it's okay to simply say, "I don't care, I love it."
Recently while in the car with a friend, I realized that he too had encountered this music mayhem. I noticed that we were listening to the crooning voices of artists like Dave Matthews and Matt Nathanson for a while and so I asked what had caused him to replace his hip-hop and rap. He simply replied, "Blame my roommate."
He told me how after living with someone who only played the type of music that Starbucks sells at the registers – as if people flock to Starbucks for their CD selection – it started to grow on him. He admitted that while he still loves the type of music that The Cave plays on a loop, listening to more mellow music has helped him to feel just that, more mellow. He proved my theory to be true.
Some roommates share clothes, some share food, so why not share music? Even if your roommate's taste in music – whatever it may be – falls on the other end of the spectrum from your own, don't dismiss it just yet. Music, like most things, should be consumed with an open mind... or in this case, an open ear.

Hardships of parenthood revealed to students who nanny in summer
It's not a pill, meticulously-devised calendar manipulation or semi-medieval-probably-illegal-in-a lot-of-countries device. It's all-natural, gluten-free, and FDA-approved—not to mention completely free of charge and capable of warding off unwanted pregnancy for nearly decades. It sounds too good to be true because, like your mama warned you, it is. This mystery 'drug' is modernly referred to as "nannying," a birth-control practice that makes even the most potent pharmaceutical concoctions look like sugar pills.
Like many a college student returning home from my first year away at school, I sought a job that would provide me with, to put it delicately, the biggest wad of cash. I attacked the premise of full-time nanning with common beginner phrases such as, 'How hard could this possibly be?'; 'Hey, this sure beats working at the mall!'; and the time-honored classic: 'I'm good with kids!' I was delusional, high off of viral Internet videos of impossibly adorable toddlers playing ukuleles and earnestly mispronouncing the word 'truck' as their parents chortled off camera. Nights of popping a bag of popcorn, flipping to Cars 2, and reading a few bedtime stories before returning to open domination over the fridge and remote (see "babyvitting") conned me.
Children, in reality, are not harmless bundles of refreshing innocence and unbridled curiosity - they are pint-sized mutants
By Erin Calhoun
ecalhoun@kansan.com
who (to my complete bewilderment) don't enjoy sleeping, eating, relaxing or minding their own business for a span greater than 45 seconds. Before I knew it I was a machine that rolled out of bed at 7 am, black sludge (see "coffee") in one hand, the wheel of a 2005 Honda Odyssey in the other, drag-racing through 25 mile-an-hour suburban cul-de-sacs to make it to whichever country club was hosting the day's tennis or ballet lessons. Makeup was a thing of the past, and clothes I preferred to not be tie-dyed by spilled Kool-Aid and chicken nugget grease hung in my closet untouched. Disney Channel theme songs haunted my dreams, and I became a stone-cold sibling fight referee (forearm claw mark scars as an added bonus).
So when was it exactly that nannying convinced me that a near future of parenthood surpassed Stephen King on the scale of terror? Was it while attempting to use logic with a four year old who NEEDED a piggy-back ride and NEEDED it now as I was elbow deep in the vomit of an overweight yellow lab who had consumed an entire gallon of Flavor Blasted Goldfish and three sleeves of double-stuffed Oreos? Or was it somewhere between being drenched in radioactive, orange 7-11 Sturpee and chasing a pair of dagger-taloned black cats
through an understaffed PetCo to the soundtrack of a wailing pre-teen who had been scratched by the runaway felines she had just mauled (imagine that?)
The precise moment is of little importance. What matters is that despite my complaining, my summer job provided me with exactly what a summer job should: a humbling and appropriately degrading perspective of the real world. It withdrew me from the wonderful land of academia, dining halls, and themed parties and shoved me into reality: a place where children constantly need freeze pops and where two loving parents work hard all day to provide them with a freezer full of them and a nanny to reluctantly dole them out. Whether your summer job consisted of wearing a suit and memorizing your boss's complicated Starbucks order, re-folding the denim wall four times in an hour, or scooping ice cream until your right arm grew to twice the size of your left, I hope that like me, you received an earnest glimpse into the everyday. I hope that you attack this school year with not only a refreshed cash flow, but a refreshed outlook on how far you've come, how far you still want to go and how lucky you are to have the opportunity to make it there. With that, I dust off my non-elastic shorts, begin my Disney-detox and bid you a happy first semester—and may your summer job exist as but a stepping-stone.

Unpaid internships not always worth sacrifice
like many students, I spent my summer as an unpaid intern earning college credit. I am grateful for the opportunity and experience I gained. However, I am not an advocate of unpaid internships.
Interning at my local newspaper was convenient. My parents' home was a five-minute drive from the office. I kept my part time job that I've had since high school. I didn't pay rent. There were no extra travel costs. Working for free didn't cost me anything but my time, and the gains were much greater.
For many others that is not the case. One fellow student, for example, worked 50 hours a week at an unpaid internship in Washington, D.C. Another student turned down an internship in D.C. because, unlike the former, she didn't know anyone who could give her a free place to stay.
Cities like D.C. and Chicago – two places I applied – are highly competitive and expensive to live in for anyone, let alone a college student who isn't getting paid.
According to Department of Labor guidelines, unpaid internships must be for the benefit of the intern exclusively, which means if companies strictly followed these guidelines most should provide at least minimum wage to interns.

It's unreasonable to say that employers should receive no benefits from interns because the interns should be receiving experience beyond what they would find in the classroom. Most of the time that means producing a product that benefits the employer - always true with journalism, where the largest benefit to students is published work for their portfolios.
Every day I benefited my employer by producing content that was published in one of four publications.
I learned far more from the experience than I would have just shadowing other journalists and fetching their coffees.
I was immediately given story assignments and asked to work independently. I was over-whelmed at first, but I know now that I learned much more than I would have had I been made to sit beside another reporter and take notes on their work.
I made mistakes that were published and affected other people,

Frankly, I desperately wanted to work for any organization that would help me get published and build my portfolio. I hope that this unpaid internship will be my launching pad for a paid internship in a bigger city, something I could never get if I spent my summer reporting independently on my website that only my family and friends read.
The catch-22, at least for journalism students, is that internships are vital to securing full time jobs in the future. Some internships even require previous internship experience in order to apply (What then makes it an internship 1 ask?).
In this economy it's difficult to demand that unpaid internships be abolished, but I imagine that there are many students disadvantaged—or even taken advantage of—by the current situation.
Clearer laws should be set on unpaid internships. Internships that help students receive career experience and opportunities should be welcomed, but students who relocate for an internship should earn a stipend so that they are not paying to work.
My byline was accompanied by "staff writer," not intern. I worked like any other reporter in the newsroom - and that's a good thing.
Unfortunately, especially in the case of print journalism, companies cannot afford to take on paid interns.
Companies shouldn't be forced to ask interns receive college credit for their work because that costs the students and puts a barrier up for students who pay their own way through college and can't afford to spend money on credit hours while working for free.
and then I learned from them.
Grants should be established for companies who can't afford to pay interns, but would like to help students learn more about their desired career field.
Something should be done that can benefit both parties without burdening students for their willingness to relocate. Companies shouldn't be forced to choose between either paying interns or dismantling their internship program.

LITERATURE
Reading outside the classroom provides numerous benefits
When was the last time you read a book? Not the common book, or any book assigned in a class, but a book that you picked up of your own volition to enjoy. Has it been a while?
Now let's exclude all those bestsellers like Game of Thrones, Fifty Shades, or Twilight; those that are thick in the hand but flimsy in the mind. Has it been a long time? How long has it been since a book inspired new ideas, challenged your deeply-held assumptions about life or changed the way you think? Have you ever experienced this? If so, that's great — send your recommendations my way. But I feel that for many of us, these experiences
Let me explain how reading has enriched my life. I liked to read when I was a kid; I tore through fantasy and sci-fi novels, Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter, and more. But when I entered high school, that genre lost its appeal and my interest in reading waned.
are few and far between. I admit that college students today don't read enough, and we suffer for it.
It wasn't until the summer before my senior year that a hyper-literate friend of mine introduced me to an author named David Foster Wallace. Reading DFW revealed a brilliant new facet of literature to me beyond the page-turning thrillers of my childhood and the formulaic
By Jason Bates jbates@kansan.com
analysis of high school English. The power and beauty of his mastery of language and syntax astonished me; more importantly, I discovered the potential of literature to be a place of deep connection between reader and author, new ideas, and human experience. It can be fall-out-of-your-chair hilarious, joyful, melancholy, revelatory, or provoke any combination of emotions. I have laughed out loud at Ignatius Reilly's antics in A Confederacy of Dunces, felt Kate's deep loneliness in Wittgenstein's Mistress and
loved Mario Incandenza like a little brother in Infinite Jest.
You can guess the rest of the story. Since then I've read DFW's entire body of published work and branched out to a host of other authors that bring the same level of connectedness. I make it a point to read a little even when classes get stressful and my time feels stretched to the limit. I think that taking this time to allow narrative, characters, and ideas wash over and envelop me has helped me to be more open to others' ideas, accepting of their viewpoints, and willing to listen to their stories.
Maybe this subjective assessment of my experiences doesn't
fully convince you of the beneficial effects of reading. I'm an engineer, too. Let me appeal to your logic and present some numerical data. When I took the ACT in April 2009, my lowest-scoring section was Reading Comprehension. In contrast, my August 2013 GRE scores came up with a verbal score that was higher than my quantitative score (very uncharacteristic of an engineering major). These data suggest that my ability to read and understand complex presentation of ideas improved overthose four years. While simple maturity may have contributed, the time I spent reading was the primary cause of this significant reversal.
In each of my subsequent columns I'll focus on a book that has changed my way of thinking. I'll introduce it to you and explain why I think it's worth reading, then discuss something it caused me to think seriously about. The meat of the column will be in this latter section — I hope to incite discussion about those everyday challenges that we often overlook.
I don't want my columns to sound didactic or offer some saccharine moral; I want to make you think. Maybe you'll even want to read a few more books.

TIPS
Experienced staffer gives advice to incoming students
Park, KS.
Welcome students, to another year at the University of Kansas. As my first column of the year, I would like to give you a guide to succeeding here. Even if you have attended the University for all your college years, you may not know about the awesome 24-hour bakery or the process to get some of the best seats in Allen Fieldhouse.
This is where I come in. Now, I'm not saying I know all about L-town; these are just a few of my favorite eateries and ways to get information on campus.
Firstthing's first: food. Ever heard of a cream cheese donut? If you want to delight in its deliciousness, then Munchers Bakery is the place
for you. Be aware that those cream cheese donuts go fast, despite the bakery being open 24 hours. As for other great places to dine: Dempsey's Burger Pub, Encore Café, Burger Stand at the Casbah, La Parrilla, Zen Zero, and Wa among others.
My advice: go explore and be willing to surprise your taste buds.
The most important spot to remember is good ole Sylas and Maddy's Homemade Ice Cream shop. Always go on Tuesday nights because it's "buy one, get one free" with your student ID. My favorite flavor is Pumpkin Pie during Thanksgiving time.
By Jordan Warren
jwarren@kansan.com
studying and eating, my favorite place to visit is Java Break. It's a quaint 24-hour coffee shop located just off Mass St. with the greatest cereal bar known to man. Seriously, if you love cereal as much as I do, you will love selecting three different cereals, tippings and milk to mix together in a Chinese takeout box. And the best part, it doesn't leak!
If you want to get involved on campus, I suggest looking at all the organizations on rockchalkcentral.com. It's a new website for finding the perfect club for you. If you
are athletic, try out for one of the many sports clubs on campus. Visit recreationku.edu to learn about all the teams, KU Fit classes and intramurals to keep you happy and healthy. If sports are not your thing, try looking into clubs in your major. Engineers Without Borders, KU PRSSA, Student Senate, SUA, and Asian American Student Union, are just to name a few. Get out there and get involved.
Now, I'm speaking directly to the new students on campus: Parking stinks. Be mindful of the signs when entering a parking lot. If it's not past the time limit for that specific permit, you probably will get a ticket. The good thing is
you can pay your tickets online at parkingku.edu.
In addition, learn the bus schedule now and learn to anticipate when a bus will be full. When winter comes, everyone will be using them, and you don't want to be "that guy" who makes everyone else squeeze to fit you past the yellow line. On the other hand, try skipping the bus from time to time. That way you are sure to miss out on the "freshman fifteen."
Finally, if you don't have a Twitter account, get one. If you want to know where to go on campus for the free cupcakes, follow @ FreeFoodATKU. If you want to read all the stalker-ish thoughts of your
secret admirer, follow
@KUSecretAdmirer. If you want to learn the know-how on snagging the best seats in the Phog, follow
@KU_BBallCamping. Of course,
you must follow all the UDK's accounts for news @UDK_News,
play @UDKplay, sports @UDK_Sports,

And if you want, send a follow my way. That's about all I have for you at this moment.

ENVIRONMENT
Hydraulic fracturing pollutes water with unknown chemicals, carcinogens
Hydraulic fracturing or "fracking" has been flowin in and out of the public spotlight for years. It's been touted by the Obama administration and the industry as the savior of American energy dependence but it's no silver bullet. The cost is insane and the navoff is underwhelming.
Hydraulic fracturing is, briefly, the process of drilling deep into the ground to find a layer of shale. After finding this rock layer, drilling continues horizontally for a short distance. Small detonating charges line the inside of this horizontal section and are set off to create small cracks in the rock. Water and chemicals are pumped at high pressures to widen the cracks and allow oil and gas to flow back through. Most of the water is removed and it becomes an otherwise regular well.
It seems simple, really, just optimizing our reserves and potentially creating a new industry within an industry. More oil, more jobs, and more money in our pocket all add up to be a slam-dunk. The Environmental Protection Agency claims it's impact-free and a dozen state legislators agree.
But the environmental and human impacts rear their heads almost immediately. Just below the surface of this energy sustainability network are horror stories of water contamination, issues with basic practicality, and censorship by the EPA.
The fracking industry reported via voluntary study in 2011 (FracFocus.org) that each individual "frack" requires an average of five

wkenney@kansan.com
million gallons of water. There are tens of thousands of natural gas wells in the United States that each frack upwards of fifteen times until depletion. The amount of energy expended and pollutants emitted when trucking billions of gallons of water to and from these wells is astronomical.
The EPA and industry tout that less than 1 percent of the solution is made up of chemicals. That sounds innocent enough until you realize that 1 percent of one hundred billion gallons of water is actually a massive amount of carcinogenic chemicals being pumped directly into the earth every single year.
And for the record, the public isn't fully aware of what's inside this chemical solution. The Bush/ Cheney "Halliburton Loophole" more or less exempted fracking from EPA regulation on drinking water sources. The fracking industry's voluntary report, FracFocus.org, leaves more than 65 percent of the chemicals in the standard solution completely unidentified.
If all of these fracturing wells were miles away from homes and neighborhoods, the cost of transporting the water necessary would likely nullify profits, so more and more "frack sites" are nearby communities. Some are smack in the middle of neighborhoods.
This sort of proximity is what led to the stories of faucet water being lit on fire in Dimock, Pennsylvania.
Earlier this year, the Associated Press reported on a geologic report from analysis in Weatherford, Texas that would have directly linked fracking to methane contamination in a local water source. A scuffle between the EPA and the drilling company followed and ended with the EPA shutting everything down and gagging the geologic report.
nia. The chemicals that aren't successfully pumped from the soil are draining into drinking water aquifers and other fresh water sources.
Among all the rampant censorship, analysis, and debate, keep in mind that another source of natural gas won't cut prices at the pump. Natural gas isn't used in American cars and most of it is being exported to Europe and Japan, where it can be sold for three to five times the price.
If you think fracting is worth the costs or not, one thing is absolutely clear: fracting is at best a controversial Band-Aid. Our reserves may last us another decade but it's no more than a temporary solution. Whatever the environmental or human impacts may be today, procrastinating on the natural resource crisis will almost guarantee those impacts ten times over in the coming years. It isn't renewable, isn't sustainable, and only carries a risk of hurting ourselves even more.

COMMENTARY Rested Sims runs for Big 12 title
By Blake Schuster
bschuster@kansan.com
If you happen to see a six-foot, 200 lbs. athlete with a flat top shutting his eyes, please let the man sleep.
Kansas running back James Sims needs his rest.
Heck, just watching Sims makes you tired. That he's sprinting up Mt. Oread. There he goes touching every step in Memorial Stadium.
Somewhere along the way a gym teacher must have forgotten to teach Sims what a light jig is.
Not that it would matter at this point. Sims has come too close to history to slow down. So please, give the boy a minute. These days, Sims makes time for eight or nine hours of sleep. Not that he was always able to.
"Back in my freshman year five or four hours," Sims said. "I couldn't really sleep."
Perhaps that's because a few things changed. As a sophomore, Sims showed potential while averaging four yards per carry. As a junior he led the Big 12 with 112.6 yards per game. As a senior, well, we'll get there. First, Sims needs a break.
You see, Sims took a beating his junior year while carrying the ball 218 times for more than 1000 yards. He's ready to go for this season, as ready as he's been for any season in his life. But those 218 carries come with a price, one that he pays on Sunday mornings.
"My legs are done with." Sims said. "I'll be brushed in a lot."
So just give the man a minute. After all, it's these moments when Sims can close his eyes and take a second to remember why he's running so hard.
"I want to be at the top of the Big 12," Sims said. "Be the leading rusher."
And here's truth: The man could do it. He could etch his name in the Big 12 record books, and without so much as thinking about it, he could set a Kansas record at the same time
James Sims has 1359 yards to go before passing June Henley's Kansas career record of 3841 rushing yards from 1993-96 – a record Sims would be much closer to breaking if he hadn't been suspended for three games in 2012. At last season's pace, he would just need to play all 12 games this year to accomplish the feat.
This is not where his head is.
This is not where his head is. Sims is reaching for an accolade that would put him alongside conference great Daniel Thomas, Jamaal Charles, Cedric Benson, Darren Sproles and Ricky Williams as the best running back in the Big 12.
Sims isn't the fastest running back in the stable like those names were. Even he admits that distinction belongs to Tony Pierson and it's not even close. Yet all summer Sims and strength and conditioning coach Scott Holsopple worked on speed. They made sure Sims could get his hip flexors loose. That he could get a quicker burst at the line of scrimmage.
THURSDAY,AUGUST 22,2013
Sims is trying to accomplish something that only one Jayhawk, Jon Cornish, has earned since 1996: gain more yards than any other back in the conference.
"I just want to take it week by week and be at the top at the end of the season." Sims said.
"He's faster," running back coach Reggie Mitchell said. "He's got a really good feel for how things are being blocked. He just looks really good right now."
And he could do it. He just needs his rest.

HEAPS AND BOUNDS

GEORGE MULLINIX/KANSAN
Junior quarterback Jake Heaps hands the ball off to senior running back James Sims during practice on Aug. 16. Heaps and Sims are two of the four captains for Kansas football.
CHOMPING AT THE BIT
I MAX GOODWIN
Jake Heaps knows how things turned out for Dayne Crist last year as quarterback for the Jayhawks.
Heaps watched every snap and was able to learn what worked for Crist, and more often, what didn't. Through it all, Heaps maintained a level of respect for the stoic way Crist carried himself during the difficult moments of the season.
"I learned a lot from how he handled adversity." Heaps said.
Despite throwing nine interceptions and four touchdowns, Crist wasn't solely responsible for the abysmal Kansas passing game. Passing efficiency and completion percentage were even lower for sophomore Michael Cummmings when he took over mid-season. As a team, Kansas finished second to last in quarterback rating and completion percentage. Just two teams threw fewer than the jayhawks' seven touchdowns.
That difference is health. Crist
Coach Charlie Weis holds himself partially responsible for the struggles Kansas had a season ago, but he believes there is a major difference between having Crist at quarterback last year and Heaps being behind center this season.
came to Kansas off two torn ACL injuries, while Heaps has a clean record. Heaps sat out last season because of transfer requirements.
"Jake just had to sit for a year while he was biding his time for his opportunity to play," Weis said. "They're totally different situations, other than the fact that they're coming in new."
The Big 12 media picked the Jayhawks to finish last in the conference once again, but Heaps embraces the challenge of being an underdog.
"We definitely have to have that 'us against the world' mentality and go out there swinging." Heaps said hours before the first practice of fall camp for the Jayhawks. "All we can do is go out and work as hard as we can."
Quarterback coach Ron Powlus believes Heaps is ready to do that.
Powlsu saw Heaps take advantage of his year out of the spotlight by familiarizing himself with Weis' pro-style offense and building chemistry with receivers. Both Heaps and Powlus say they've already noticed the results of that hard work in camp.
"I think he feels really comfortable with the guys he's throwing to," Powlus said. "As we've gotten out there the first couple days of
practice you can see where those relationships have been built, and you can see how the passing game could flourish because of the hard work these guys have put in."
The offense is perfect for an accurate pocket passer like Heaps, who says he couldn't be happier with the system.
Although the offense has many terms to memorize, Powlus said Heaps had plenty of time to learn the terminology and put it into action in practice.
It's uncertain what Kansas will get from McCay, as he played just three games with no receptions in his two years at Oklahoma.
"Jake is a smart guy"
Still, Heaps is confident in the once highly touted receiver, after the two played on the scout team together throughout the 2011-2012 season.
"Jake is a smart guy. He's a hard worker, he's got a good football mind, and I think he prepared mentally as much as he could."
Powlus said. "He's a hard worker, he's got a good football mind, and I think he prepared mentally as much as he could."
RON POWLUS Quarterback coach
And Weis has done his part to give Heaps a more dynamic offense. It's common knowledge Kansas receivers didn't catch a touchdown pass for the Jayhawks last season.
This year, Heaps will have transfer Justin McCay, who was the number six ranked receiver in his class out of Bishop Miege High School in 2010, according to rivals.com.
"Justin has looked great this offseason," Heaps said. "It was great to be able to go through scout team together and develop chemistry. It's really paid off for us this offseason because we've been able to hit the ground running."
McCay isn't the only added help for the Kansas passing game. Weis has moved running back Tony Pierson to the slot at times, similar to how Tavon Austin was used at West Virginia last season.
His teammates and coaches believe Pierson can go for a big gain on any play because of his speed and evasiveness.
"I think Tony Pierson is one of the top five explosive guys in the Big 12," Heaps said. "He's got such a dynamic ability. He has
breakaway speed, he can catch the football and great vision in the backfield."
With those weapons, and a few others, like speedy junior college transfer Rodriguez Coleman, Heaps can't wait to get the season going. He's finally back in a position to lead a team
The leadership role is one Weis said Heaps took immediately following the final game of the 2012 season.
"I think he was just chomping at the bit," Weis said. "I'm surprised he didn't meet us at the plane after the West Virginia game, because it became his time to be back in the mix."
As the Jayhawks move closer to the first game of the season, Heaps is looking forward to running out of the tunnel for the first time in a Kansas uniform, but he remains focused on leading the team as they continue to prepare and improve.
"I don't care how we get it done," Heaps said. "We just want to win."

The Royals have not made the playoffs since 1985 when the team beat the St. Louis Cardinals in the World Series.
Q: When's the last time the Royals finished over 500?
A: 2003

THE MORNING BREW Royals building to last with core of young and veteran players
For some teams, just winning more games than they lose is an accomplishment. The last time the Royals won more games than they lost was 2003, when Barry Bonds, Alex Rodriguez and Jim Thome were baseball's golden boys.
The 2003 Royals were a team whose moto was "We Believe," and they bear many resemblances to the team that we see in 2013; a cornerstone outfielder, a below-the-radar starting staff and a solid bulpen.
By Ben Allen
ballen@kansan.com
As fans know, the hardest thing for many big league teams is not only repeating success, but sustaining overall consistency. The 2003 Royals may have had some talent, but they weren't built from players who showed they'd be able to last in the long haul. This is why they hung their heads at a 100-loss season the next year and were ultimately forced to move their star player in Carlos Beltran.
The team's makeup is much of the same
So here the Royals sit in 2013: A record above .500 and a position to steal a wild card spot.
as the 2003 season but one thing stands out from the team of a decade ago: long-term potential.
The Royals are using a model that relies on young talent rather than going against bigger market teams who reach for star players in free agency. Last year the Washington Nationals were just one of the most recent teams to see the fruits of their labor when the team jumped from 80 to 98 wins in one season, led by under 25-year-old players like
Bryce Harper and Stephen Strasburg
The Royals, who often compiled a team of misfit players such as Miguel Olivo and Bret Tomko, are now beginning to place their trust in young talents like Salvador Perez and Greg Holland.
Kansas City now sports six homegrown players. Two are former all-stars, three are solid starters, and Terry Francanona once called one, Eric Hosmer, a "future MVP."
The Royals of 2013 are a team that many in pre-season speculated might have a chance to make the playoffs with the addition of star pitcher James Shields. Many, though, scrutinized the team trading top prospect Wil Myers to the Rays to get Shields. The biggest thing when you have young talent is the need to bring in good veterans to balance out the immaturities.
When the Royals brought on the 31-yearold Shields, they were not only trying to round out a team for this year, but for years to come.
KU
those players are still on their roster. But the 2013 Royals are not looking to rebuild anytime soon. With a nucleus of young talented players and gritty tough veterans, the Royals of now have nowhere to look but up.

A year after its best season in school history, the Kansas women's volleyball team is primed to continue its winning ways.
The Jayhawks will return a majority of their players from a team that made the NCAA Tournament, earned a 26-7 record and finished three returning starters including All-American middle blocker Caroline larmoc.
Even with so many players returning, head coach Ray Bechard knows success next season isn't a guarantee.
"2011 didn't equal 2012, and 2012 doesn't equal 2013." Bechard said. "Expectations from others will be high, but you have to stay true to yourself and focus on the things you can control. That means working extremely hard and outworking everyone else."
Preseason camp, which included two weeks of two-a-day practices and fitness testing, started on Aug. 10. Before getting into match simulations, the players worked on mastering fundamentals including ball handling, motor skills, pass and serve consistency and dig repetitions.
Hanson, an outside hitter from Sioux Falls Washington High School in South Dakota, was a state runner-up and a member of the All-State team.
While Kansas lost two important players from last season—defensive specialist Morgan Boub and middle blocker Taylor Tolefree—three freshmen are ready to step in and contribute right away. Emma Hanson, Tayler Souci, and Cassie Wait come to the program with impressive résumés.
Soucie, a middle blocker from Osawatomie High School, led the country with 779 kills.
Wait, an outside hitter who will be converted into a defensive specialist, was named the Kansas 6A Player of the Year and Kansas Gatorade Player of the Year playing for Gardner Edgerton High School.
"The freshmen have killed it so far," said outside hitter Tiana Dockery, a sophomore from Richard, Texas, and
member of the All-Freshman Big 12 Team last year. "They've learned really quickly."
With so many veterans, the team has a good grasp of the drills, tempo and expectations that come with the beginning of a new season. The returners are making sure the new-comers feel comfortable in this new environment.
"On the floor we have a lot of vocal leaders," setter Erin McNorton, a senior setter from Plano, Texas, said. "We have a lot of people with experience on this team, so that helps with leadership."
McNorton joins farmoc and outside hitter Sara McClinton on the All-Big 12 Presseason Team. Kansas, along with Texas and Iowa State, led the Big 12 with three players on the Presseason Team.
Players and staff were anxious to get to work this fall. A week before preseason camp started, players began counting down till the first day of practice on their social media accounts.
"I'm excited and I know the staff is excited to get going." Beard said.
"There has been a lot of anticipation and the kids have been working hard this summer, but we don't really have a chance to get together as a team and talk about what wed like to get accomplished until camp starts. It was certainly fun to do that."
The Jayhawks will look to make consecutive NCAA Tournament appearances for the first time since 2003-2005, when they made three straight appearances. Kansas is ranked No. 20 in the American Volleyball Coaches Association (AVCA) preseason poll, its first ever preseason ranking. All fans are encouraged to come to Horesji Family Athletics Center to see the team in action. Students get in free with a valid KU ID.
"The atmosphere of volleyball is almost incomparable to any other sport because the athletes are so athletic and the game is continuous," said Arin McMullen, the head student manager. "Horejsi has arguably the best atmosphere in the Big 12 to play a game. It's something you should do at least once before you graduate."

Kansas coach Bill Self inducted into Oklahoma Sports Hall of Fame
The 2013-14 season hasn't yet begun and already Kansas coach Bill Self is adding to his impressive resume.
"I am proud to be here tonight, but I didn't get here by myself." Self said at his induction ceremony. "My parents were the best role models anyone could have, and I owe so much to my wife and kids. I've been blessed to coach great players, who have sacrificed personal goals for the good of the team, and have been fortunate to work with the best assistant
coaches anywhere."
Oklahoma City Thunder owner Clay Bennett, NFL player LeRoy Gutowski, Olympic gold medalist Nadia Comaneci and Oklahoma State All-American John Henry Ward were also inducted along with Self.
And while the honor itself was a humbling event for Self, the ceremony may be among his finest moments.
Self's father, Bill Self Sr., a high school athletics cornerstone for 27 years in Oklahoma, introduced his son while the younger Self's family and friends, including former Kansas coaches Ted Owens and Danny Manning, came to show their support.
"Bill has won a lot of games, but he's a great ambassador for KU and for Kansas Athletics," Self Sr. said. "He doesn't think he's better than anyone. He supports great causes and it's a great honor for me to present my son for this award."

Junior defensive lineman Marquel Combs works out during practice on Aug. 16. Combs, who was ranked as the No. 1 junior college recruit by ESPN, is one of the many junior college transfers who joined the team for the 2013 season.
Combs' personality shines on and off the field
CONNOR OBERKROM
coberkrom@kansan.com
Marquel Combs ignites the room. He has an amicable, playful personality that evokes laughs and smiles. His body language displays his flirtatious personality and hearing him talk reinforces it. Football players are, at times, intimidating and hard to approach, but Combs is engaging and welcoming.
Combs was one of the most sought-after junior college recruits last year and ranked No. 1 by ESPN. He's at Kansas this year not only to bolster their defensive line but also to add that something extra, something that may have been devoid of last year's defense, a personality that invokes optimism and something that you can build from.
Combs, a Memphis native, arrived in Lawrence a chatterbox inside the locker room and on the field. While his positive, outgoing attitude is welcomed, some of the noise isn't.
Combs even purchased a yo-yo to curb his room-filling chatter.
"I want to hear me talk, not him," head coach Charlie Weis said, "He'll probably hear that several times in the next couple of weeks."
"I just be yo-yoing around, so I
don't talk as much," Combs said.
Weis, however, who is known to be a talker himself, said in his weekly press conference on Tuesday that he doesn't try to eradicate the flavorful identities on the field.
"On the field I don't stifle personalities." Weis said. "I like people that have personalities. I just try to teach them the right way to present themselves on the field. I don't mind guys trash talking, I kind of like it to tell the truth, but there's a right way and wrong way of doing things."
Anyone as open with words as Combs can create great relationships and spawn stories that the team can latch onto, making them closer. Combs said as far as the comedy goes, everything is just natural for him.
"I'll say something crazy that makes everybody laugh, I don't realize until everybody laughs," Combs said.
The influx of junior college recruits, Combs included, provided some tangible advancement in the Charlie Weis era. This specific class coined the term "Dream Team." It's been rampant among the players coming in and Combs, the headliner of the group, has been hammering it home to everyone since
arriving in Lawrence.
"We just coming in, trying to put KU back where it should be like that Orange Bowl feeling," Combs said.
The term stemmed from Combs' Twitter account, @TheReal_92, when he created a movement with some of the other junior college players. They decided they wanted to get together and play at Kansas. This movement included two oth-
Marcus Jenkins-Moore and Brandon Holloman who played with Combs at Pierce Community College in Woodlands, Calif.
Combs also played with Kevin Short and Rodriguez Coleman, two other junior college
consecutive games, Combs is ready to step into a role on or off the field and has the makeup to do so.
"I'm just here to play my role," Combs said. "If being a leader helps, then I'm here to do whatever it takes to win."
Despite the hype and hoopla surrounding the Dream Team moniker and for a team that hasn't won a Big 12 conference match in 21
"On the field I don't stifle personalities, I like people that have personalities. I just try to teach them the right way to present themselves on the field."
The Jayhawks hope he can be a physical body that can disrupt the numerous talented backfields in the Big 12, something that plagued Kansas' defense last season.
"I'm trying to build a dream team here." Combs said.
recruits playing at Fort Scott in the summer of last year.
CHARLIE WEIS Head coach
Keon Stowers, a junior defensive lineman who played with Kansas last season, was originally roommates with Combs until the day Pearce Slater arrived. Stowers said that it's well-documented that Combs likes to endlessly talk.
never puts down his phone and is always sparking up an entertaining conversation with someone.
Stowers said he
But when they hit the gridiron and get into serious business, Stowers said Combs is one of the most determined players he knows.
"Off the field he's going to joke
with you," Stowers said. "As soon as we step in between the lines, he goes to work."
If you needed further evidence of Combs' top-notch work ethic, there is nothing better than taking a look at his ability to reduce his weight from 320 pounds when he first arrived in December to a lean 290 now. He said the transition was strenuous.
Combs, playing in'a newly integrated defense at the time at Pierce Community College, had to put on some pounds. Once he transferred to Kansas, he knew the roles had to be reversed, and the only task at hand was getting down to the ideal weight for Kansas' defense.
Combs has been adamant in his decision to go to Kansas after receiving more than 50 scholarship offers and is unrelenting in his surprising choice after decommitting from Ole Miss because he wanted to graduate from Pierce early. Combs is comfortable in his element and thinks that it's the right place for him.
"I wanted to go to a program that was on the rise or was sort of losing." Combs said.
until he did his research. Combs was in disbelief after learning that Weis has four Super Bowl rings.
He wanted to pick up a program that was struggling and become one of the driving forces of that resurgence.
"We want to be the reason why this program came from here all the way to the top and I think it's the perfect year to do it," Combs said.
Combs plays an integral part to both this new recruiting class and to the program as a whole. This recruiting class holds the keys to what could be a bigger amount of talent in the next recruiting classes.
While the yo-yo may preoccupy Combs for now, when he steps on the field in September he is going to be shredding tackles. The allure will only matter if he can reinforce those special talents that have been emboldened by his personality.
For a player who has built a reputation on talking, his aspirations have him at a shortage of words.
"The Dream Team here" Combs said. "That all I can say"

Sendish brings leadership, versatility to team

Division I college football coaches are taking a calculated risk when they recruit players from the junior college ranks, as Charlie Weis has for his first two seasons at Kansas.
A player could have serious off-field issues that keep him from playing, or he could bring exactly what a program has been missing. Junior defensive back Cassius Sendish has proven to be a shining example of the latter for Kansas.
"You never know with juco guys," junior quarterback Jake Heaps said. "You hope they come in and are as talented as you think they are. And Cassius is one of those guys that's really been a leader for us and he's been a pleasure to work with. He's always just taking care of business and he's been there for the team."
Sure, Sendish brings leadership to the Jayhawk defense, but his experience and versatility also allow defensive coordinator Dave Campo to use the nickel as the base defense, playing Sendish as the fifth defensive back. Last season, the Jayhawks struggled to run defenses with extra defensive backs, due to a lack of depth at the position.
It's a role that Sendish, a 6-foot, 187-pound native of Walderf, Md., is excited about. He describes the nickelback as a hybrid.
"I'll have to play a linebacker role at times, I'll have to blitz. I'll have to be in coverage." Sendish said. "It's everything. It puts me in position to make a lot of plays."
And it puts Kansas in a position to be more effective against the passing-oriented offenses of the Big 12, which was the reason for the decision to play nickel.
"I think it was a very good decision," Sendish said, "I keeps us up to pace with those high-tempo offenses."
Coach Charlie Weis says the extra defensive back is likely there to stay this season, and if a change is made it would probably be adding
another defensive back rather than taking one away.
Weis is confident in Sendish ability, and will play him wherever the secondary needs him most. Sendish has already been mentioned as one of the star players of fall camp.
"It's pretty obvious when were on the field that one of the guys that stands out both as a leader and performer is Cassius Sendish,"
Weis said.
Kansas tight ends coach Jeff Blasko was in charge of recruiting Sendish out of Arizona Western,
Sendish says he always expected his athleticism to get him into a major university, but instead had to take the long road through two years of junior college before making it to the Division I level.
Though Sendish is honest about making the mistake of letting his
grades slip in high school, he's also quick to note that he was able to turn things around at Arizona Western. He said his grade point average his last two semesters was a 3.8 and a 4.0.
"I had to learn the hard way, but I've obviously learned my lesson," Sendish said.
and Blasko said it didn't take long to notice something different about him.
"We liked the way he plays the game, but the more of a relationship I built with him, the more that positive character started to come out." Blasko said. "It was very early on in the process that we saw there was something special about him from the way he carried himself."
Sendish was one of four players
that Weis brought to Big 12 media days in Dallas this summer to represent Kansas, and Sendish presented himself with maturity and professionalism as he spoke of getting in shape for the season.
"I'm ready to play at this level," Sendish said. "It's just been a dream of mine, so I'm ready to take advantage of it."

TRACK AND FIELD
FROM CHAMPIONSHIP PAGE 1
The University of Kansas women's track and field team now safely led the team standings by 15 points, thanks to Vollmer's win.
"It was one of the most surreal moments," Vollmer said. "I may have blacked out when the announcer said I had won. There was joy and excitement, and everyone was congratulating me. I wish everyone could experience that feeling."
The women were later crowned national champions for the first time in school history.
Coach Stanley Redwine spoke highly of Vollmer and the team's efforts at the championship, which took place June 5 through 8.
"We knew the points that it took
for the team to do well and everyone stepped up," Redwine said. "Lindsay's additional points were exceptional."
At the Indoor Championship in March, Kansas finished second. Leading up to the Outdoor Championships in June, the Jayhawks were ranked first, and they knew it would take a group effort to pull off a win in Oregon.
"More importantly, it was a team effort," Redwine said. "Everyone wanted to do their part."
The championship team included several seniors; a number of them placed in their respective events. This year the team will be without key leaders, such as Andrea Geubelle and Paris Daniels,
who graduated.
Redwine said that the women worked hard to achieve their goal by putting the team first.
Redwine said each one of them would be missed but the underclassmen, including Vollmer and Diamond Dixon, would be ready to step up to the challenge.
Vollmer said the national title was extra incentive following her personal win.
"It was the perfect week for the team," Vollmer said. "I think we surprised some people, and we knew it'd be tough in Oregon.
"There were nothing but smiles on everyone's faces," Volmer added.
Vollmer is open-minded for the next season.
"The sky is the limit."

1) THE DEFENSE IS GOING TO BE A LOT MORE COMPETITIVE AND WILL PUSH THE TEAM TO A FEW MORE WINS THAN EXPECTED
The Jayhawk defense failed to muster any pressure on the up-tempo, feverish offenses of the Big 12 in 2012 because of a lack of depth. This year, Kansas has depth with a plethora of physical bodies to go along with the eminent leadership of junior linebacker Ben Heeney and a blossoming secondary that features the most rawn-about Kansas defensive player, junior nickelback/cornerback Cassius Sendish. While the defense might not shut any teams down, it's going to cause some disruptions in the Big 12, which currently has one of its weakest quarterback classes in the last five years.
2) HEAPS IS GOING TO EXPERIENCE SOME GROWING PAINS AND THEN SOME
While the Big 12 is a passing conference, quarterbacks can struggle, especially with the spread offense and its intricacies. Even the more-than adequate West Virginia quarterback Geno Smith struggled. The quarterbacks that don't necessarily catch up to the fast game and struggle early on can mask the problems with the barrage of playmakers around them. Kansas has playmakers, but not any more than what the top half of the league will have. The team has wide receivers junior Justin McCay and senior Christian Matthews who are speed demons, but still haven't produced a sample size to ease any doubt. Junior quarterback Jake Heaps will certainly be an upgrade from last season's quarterback quarrel, but it's hard to believe he'll jump in there and make an immediate impact.
3) JAMES SIMS WILL BECOME KANSAS' ALL-TIME LEADING RUSHER THIS SEASON
Senior running back James Sims has worked extremely hard this offseason. Sims has shown he can carry the load game after game. He needs 1,359 yards to surpass June Henley on the all-time rushing list, which is just a little more than 300 yards short of the 1,013 he compiled last season in nine games.
In some out of reach games, look for Weis to pad his stats. With a bolstered offensive line, Sims will obtain the record by a slim margin.
4)
KANSAS WILL LEAD THE BIG 12 IN RUSHING
white Kansas will be in the cellar passing the ball, rushing the ball is obviously going to be its forte. With added depth this year, the rushing attack will stretch its game even further. Also, an upgraded quarterback threat – at least at first – will only help matters, erasing a couple of defenders out the box and allowing more running room for the backfield, which wasn't the case last season.
5) EITHER BRANDON BOURBON OR TONY PIERSON WILL ECLIPSE THE 800-YARD MARK
The captivating addition to the offense was announced early on when Weis decided to move junior Tony Pierson to the flanker position, also known as the slot receiver. That was embellished by the fact that senior Brandon Bourbon, previously a running back, was added as the No. 2 flanker. While Heaps may experience some anguish from the gate, Pierson and Bourbon are going to be his security blankets. When Pierson and Bourbon run in space, they are an ensuing nightmare. They are Heaps best friends no matter what he tells you.
(6)
6) THIS DEFENSE IS FILLED WITH LEADERS
Whether anybody wants to believe it or not, intangibles matter in football and even more so in reference to the Kansas defense. With the new nickel-based system being implemented this season, leaders are imperative for a youthful defense. The defensive unit could blossom in leaps and bounds, and that all hinges on the leader of this defense. Defenders like junior lineman Maruel Combs, junior lineman Keon Stowers, Cassius Sendish, senior safety Dexton Linton and the incumbent Ben Heeney. For all the "Dream Team" aspirations to come to fruition, these defenders are the anchors to success and the rest are the guiding crew to the ship.
7)
7) WEIS WILL GIVE EVERYONE AT LEAST TWO NOTEWORTHY SOUND BITES
Once something emanates from coach Charlie Weis' candid mouth, you certainly will be able to tell. And with a team abundant with more personalities and storylines than last season, at the bare minimum, Weis will create two hashtag worthy moments for the season.
8) MEMORIAL STADIUM WILL BREAK THE 50,000 BARRIER ATTENDANCE MARK AT LEAST ONCE THIS SEASON
rernaps it will be the first game or the second, but Memorial Stadium has to be close-to-full for at least one game. Last year no game eclipsed the 50,000 mark in a disarray season, but every game but one passed the 40,000 mark. You have to think there is a glimmer of hope to spark the fans to fill Memorial once, which will probably be the Kansas State game, when you won't be able to discern if you're in Manhattan or Lawrence.
9) THE OFFENSIVE LINE IS GOING TO BE DEMONSTRABLY BETTER
Before sophomore Pearce Slater arrived in Lawrence, the offensive line was experienced, gifted and had guys that were ready to step into their role. Now that Slater - who offensive line coach Tim Grunhard said is one of the biggest guys he's ever coached - is on the depth chart and practicing, the offensive line is a group that has gelled well so far and has seen some major transformation. Including a well-documented, 75-pound weight shedder senior Aslam Sterling and junior Pat Lewandowksi playing at center for the first time, they've shown they can commit to their roles and be the unit that the offense needs to propel the team forward.
10) KANSAS WILL FINISH BETTER THAN LAST PLACE
For how quickly last season derailed and went up in flames, the vibe of this pack of players is different. With the fraternization of the "Dream Team" mantra, as cliche as it may sound to everyone, this demeanor is different than last season. Kansas has players that are truly invested into the program. Not saying that last season's players didn't, but this season's team seems to be more. This season's team is encouraging and has a huge influx of raw talent compared to the season before. I think Kansas can get a couple of low-scoring games to swing in their favor for four wins in the Big 12.

Kansas starts from the bottom, now it's here
CHRIS HYBL
citybl@kansan.com
If you followed Kansas football this summer, at some point you heard the words "pile of crap." Coach Charlie Weis used these words to describe Kansas' 1-1 football team last year, and they apparently doubled as his recruiting pitch to more than 20 junior college transfers.
Here were Weis' well-document-
There were wed words from the Big 12 Media Day on July 22:
"Everyone wants to play.
There's no one that wants to not play. So I said,
'Have you looked at that pile of crap out there? Have
pen to believe not only will they fix the “pile of crap” situation, but that they have formed a "Dream Team."
"It's a good name to have," Pearce Slater, an offensive tackle from from El Camino Community College, said. "We're trying to change Kansas football and turn it around."
The name was started by Maruel Combs, the No.1 junior college transfer recruit in the nation according to ESPN.com, before any transfers had even laden up their spikes at
"I want to turn this team around grom going 1-11 to a bowl game or do even better."
you taken a look at that? So if you don't think you can play here, where do you think you can play? It's a pretty simple approach. That's not a sales pitch, that's practical. You've seen it. Unfortunately, so have I."
Weis can't rebuild when there's not foundation. He filled the roster with junior college transfers with more in-game experience, who also hap-
SIAIAH JOHNSON Sophomore safety
Kansas.
"Everybody knows about the Dream Team," Samson Faifili, a linebacker transfer from American River Community College, said. "We all came in and we've
all been talking to each other before we met and we've been texting and all that stuff"
It even helped lock in commitments from other junior college prospects.
"We're all cool and we all talk and it's been fun on the field," Isaiah Johnson, a junior college transfer from Iowa Western Community
College, said, "We all started that 'Dream Team' and I think that was a big reason I came here too."
"Dream Teams" usually have ambitious goals. This one certainly does considering Kansas' six football wins in three seasons.
"I want to turn this team around from going 1-11 to a bowl game or do even better," Johnson said.
It's bowl or bust for the Dream Team, and the surrounding criticism couldn't mean less to the junior college group. They don't care that they teams was picked last in the conference. They don't care that the team they now play for hasn't won a conference game in two years. And they certainly do not care if anyone makes fun of the "Dream Team."
"Basically we don't have any spot light on us, not even a little light on us, but that's just going to make the season even more special," Faifiil said. "When we do show something everybody's going to be like, 'Woah, who are these guys?' because we came out nowhere and no one will really know."
Added Pearce Slater. "Anything is possible. We just got to work."

Jayhawks look to improve on last season's success
ESTELLA LIANG
fsiang@kansan.com
The Kansas soccer team returns to the field this season with high expectations, hoping to build on last season's 10-8-2 finish. The haymakers were picked to place fifth in the Big 12 conference pre-season coaches' poll, but the team expects to do better.
Coach Mark Francis, who has
been at Kansas since 1999, said he takes no stock in preseason rankings.
"I think this group, with the way things are going, I think they are definitely
D. MORRIS
Francis
capable of competing to win the conference," Francis said. "I think that has to be our goal going into it."
The Jayhawks retain much of their experience from last year with seven returning starters. Seven newcomers have also been added to the team, including Aurélie Gagnet, who is currently playing for the French U19 National team.
Returning players include senior Caroline
Kastor, junior
jamie Fletcher
and redshirt
so phomore
Liana Salazar.
Francis said
Kastor will be

amonging team
MARIE KELLY

this year and Fletcher will anchor the midfield. He also said having Salazar back after her redshirt year will benefit the team because she is a creative player. Other players returning are senior Madi Hills, juniors Haley Yearout and Caroline Van Slambrouck and sophomores Ashley Williams and Courtney Dickerson.
Kastor, who led the team with 11 goals and 24 points last season.
can move further up the record book at Kansas. She currently ranks sixth in school history for career points, with 51, and sixth in career goals, with 20. Three more goals would land her in a tie for third overall.
Francis said he expects experience to be a key factor for the season.
"I think we've got some older players in each line, somebody in the back, somebody in the mid-field, somebody up front that we will look to to organize that line of the field."
With so much time off from competition, Francis said the team is a little rusty in fundamentals. He said plays aren't as crisp or clean as they need to be, but that will improve as the season progresses.
On the other hand, Francis said the team's mentality is at the right place with the right amount of intensity. He said he is excited for the team to use this intensity in gameplay.
Kansas competes in the Big 12 conference, which fields nine teams that compete in women's soccer. Defending conference champion West Virginia was picked in the preseason poll to repeat its feat. The other teams in the conference are Baylor, Iowa State, Oklahoma, Oklahoma State, TCU, Texas and Texas Tech.
Games on the nonconference part of the schedule include matches against Purdue, San Diego, South Dakota State and Illinois State. The conference schedule includes games against all eight Big 12 foes, including a trip to Morgantown, W. Va. to face West Virginia. The Big 12 championship will be held in Kansas City, Kan. at Swope Park in November.
Kansas opens its season at Arkansas on Aug. 23, before returning for the home opener on Aug. 25 against Pacific.

While balancing going to class, holding a job and squeezing in time to have some fun, eating healthy can seem tedious and impossible. But before you stop at that fast food drive-through and peek at the dollar menu, remember when you are hungry there are always healthy alternatives.
Swapping out certain items in a favorite meal or snack can save you meaningless calories. To avoid extra calories during lunch, keep in mind a 250-calorie hoagie roll can easily be replaced by pita bread with only 170 calories. And when you are craving a snack after class, tortilla chips with salsa instead of cheese dip are half the calories.
There are plenty of ways to savor the flavor of your favorite foods while also saving some calories. Here is a lightened recipe for chunky monkey cookies that is easy to make while also being healthy and delicious.

I really enjoyed this movie, as I do with most films that Fox Searchlight produces. It was very interesting to see Carell
in such a different role, being a douchebag-possible stepfather instead of the normal funny man that he is. The two roles that stand out the most for me, though, are that of Duncan and Owen, played by James and Rockwell, respectively. Liam James plays the awkward innocence of early adolescence perfectly, and Sam Rockwell

EARTH WIND AND FIRE
COLLECTION BY ROBERT W. KENNEDY
ASSOCIATED PRESS
Eustace Conway, center, shows campers how to split a log at his Turtle Island Preserve in Triplett, N.C., on June 27. When Conway bought his first 107 acres in 1987, his vision for Turtle Island was as "a tiny bowl in the earth, intact and natural, surrounded by pavement and highways." People peering inside from nearby ridges would see "a pristine and green example of what the whole world once looked like."
Man embraces natural lifestyle
ASSOCIATED PRESS
The way Eustace Conway sees it, there's the natural world, as exemplified by his Turtle Island Preserve in the Blue Ridge Mountains. And then there's the "plastic, imitation" one that most other humans inhabit.
But the border between the two has always been a porous one.
When he bought his first 107 acres in 1987, Conway's vision for Turtle Island was as "a tiny bowl in the earth, intact and natural, surrounded by pavement and highways."
People peering inside from nearby ridges would see "a pristine and green example of what the whole world once looked like."
Since leaving his parents' suburban home at 17 and moving into the woods, Conway has been preaching the gospel of sustainable, "primitive" living.
But over the past three decades, those notions have clearly evolved.
Conway has traded his trademark buckskins for jeans and T-shirts.
Visitors to "Turtle Island are as likely to hear the buzz of a chain saw as the call of an eagle, and interns learn that "Dumpster diving" is as important a skill as hunting or fishing.
And then there are the television cameras.
For the past two seasons, Conway has brought his message of simpler living to the History Channel reality show, "Mountain Men" — a role he concedes is inherently oxymoronic.
"I think television's terrible," the 52-year-old woodsman says with a chuckle that shakes his long, iron-grey beard. "So it's definitely a paradox."
But it's all part of a complex dance. For Conway and Turtle Island, sustainability has come to depend on interns and apprentices, and on tax-exempt status from a regulatory system this self-styled "true old-time mountain man" openly despises.
It also depends, increasingly, on a steady stream of paying campers. And that is where Conway's peaceful coexistence with the "modern world" broke down.
Acting on a complaint about alleged illegal building, officials from the Watauga County Planning and Inspection Department raided Turtle Island last fall and found dozens of structures for which no permits were ever pulled. Citing numerous health and safety code violations, the county attorney gave Conway three options: Bring the buildings up to minimum state standards, have an expert certify that they already met code and obtain proper permits, or tear them down.
What ensued was more than just a battle of government versus the individual. It was also very much about the lines between what is real and what is "reality."
County Planning Director Joe Furman says the conflict started in late spring of 2012 with an anonymous phone call, followed about a week later by an unmarked envelope containing a crudely drawn
tailed, color-
coded map. It
showed build-
ings, road grading
and wiring
all allegedly done without proper permitting, engineering or inspections.
"In the figurative sense we are an island of wilderness in a sea of development and destruction."
Unlike some of his fellow TV "Mountain Men," who toil high in the Rockies or far out in the Alaskan wilderness, Conway is hardly cut off from civilization.
Turtle Island lies near the Tennessee border, just a few miles east of Boone — a county seat of 17,000 residents whose population doubles when Appalachian State University, Conway's alma mater, is in session. Just beyond the gravel road that leads into the 1,000-acre preserve, spacious, modern homes nestle on wooded lots within sight of the Blue Ridge Parkway.
Once through the gates, everything changes.
After crossing a dancing stream, the road opens onto a meadow ringed by a blacksmith shop, open-air kitchen and dining room, a corn crib and assorted other outbuildings. Dominating the scene
is a massive cantilevered barn,
constructed of dovetailed logs and
roofed with 5,000 hand-hewn,
moss-covered shingles.
The name comes from an American Indian creation myth about a great turtle that saved the world's creatures from a cataclysmic flood by supporting them on its shell. "In the figurative sense," Conway's website explains, "we are an island of wilderness in a sea of development and destruction."
Not exactly, say local officials.
After a cursory inspection, Furman says talks between his office and Conway broke down. So on Sept. 19, Furman came back with a warrant and sheriff's deputies.
Beginning with Conway's own home, inspectors found the building lacked the minimum water and sewer connections.
EUSTACE CONWAY
All of the buildings were constructed of wood milled on site, not the marked, graded lumber
required in the building codes.
Solar panels run the equipment in Conway's little office, and a micro-hydroelectric plant installed by students from ASU's Appropriate Technology
The team noted a wood stove whose chimney was vented beneath a building's metal roof, not through it, and unpermitted outhouses intended for public use. Several buildings were not connected to the stacked-stone foundations supporting them.
Program powers a small workshop Inspectors say they found wiring and junction boxes that were not up to code.
In his 78-page report, consultant W.O. Whaley concluded that many of the buildings were "not structurally sound."
"The property in its present state presents a hazard to the safety of anyone near any of the structures," he wrote. "I would suggest obtaining a court order to vacate the property to protect the lives of the public and the interns."
Conway and his supporters argued that Furman's office was
missing the point. How, he asked,
can he teach primitive living in
modern, cookie-cutter structures?
"Human beings have built their own houses for thousands and thousands, and actually millions of years," Conway says. "And now we can't even build our own house with our own material that grows on our own land? That's not some regulation that's just a county problem. That's a human rights issue."
To counter Whaley's report, Conway posted a series of interviews with certified building inspector Drew Kelly on YouTube. Kelly said most of the buildings were constructed "at bare minimum, above what they're wanting regular houses to be built at."
"Do they fit modern-day building codes?" Kelly said. "No. Because they're not modern-day structures."
Conway doubts there ever was a complaint.
He believes it's no coincidence that his trouble with the planning department began during the first season of "Mountain Men."
But as the show illustrates, there can be a fine line between perception and reality.
The show is mostly about man's struggle against nature. But in Conway's story line, a frequent adversary is "the government."
"What do I do for a living?" Conway says in the premiere episode. "I live for a living."
MUSIC
In season one's second episode, titled "Mayhem." Conway opens his mailbox to find an official-looking letter inside. He slits it open with his pocketknife.
"Motion to claim exempt property?" he reads from the court document in his hand. "This is crazy. Damn attorney is paying the sheriff to serve me. Going to take all my land? . Basically, I just got a letter saying, 'Your life is over.'"
In setting up scene, the sandpaper-voiced announcer gives the distinct impression that it's the government that is coming after Turtle Island.
"Eustace has always been able to survive living off his land," the man growls ominously. "But he always struggles to pay the tax man."

MATADOR RECORDS
Queens of the Stone Age album features variety of style, tone
TOM DEHART
tdehart@kansan.com
With the band's previous record, "Era Vulgaris", having been released in 2007, Queens of the Stone Age members had a decent amount of time to devote to other side projects. Josh Homme (Vocals/guitar) released an album with two separate side projects including Eagles of Death Metal's "Heart On" and a self-titled LP with Them Crooked Vultures, a band whose lineup consists of drummer Dave Grohl and Led Zeppelin bassist John Paul Jones. The gap between records made the anticipation of this record one that many music fans longed for, and it was able to live up to its hype.
Few rock bands have the ability to take a heavy, distorted rock song, bend the rules, and then make it into something that most musicians haven't before. Queens of the Stone Age is one of those bands with that ability. The release of the Queens of The Stone Age new album, "...Like Clockwork," this past June has returned the band to its heavily distorted and incredibly authentic guitar leads with a slightly different twist than what they delivered on their previous five albums.
"...Like Clockwork" begins with a tone that delivers a sort of haunted enchantment over the entire record with the track "Keep Your Eyes Peeled." The sound of this album is darker than the sound the band has achieved on its previous records—and it's a definite upside to this album. The guitar parts that
Homme delivers are accompanied by an inventive and well felt out rhythm section.
Drummer Joey Castillo departed from the band halfway through the recording process. He drummed with Queens of the Stone Age for ten years and also drummed with Homme in Eagles of Death Metal. Foo Fighters' frontman and previous Queens of the Stone Age guest drummer, Dave Grohl, returned to the studio to assist the band until the completion of the album. Grohl previously drummed as a guest on the entire 2002 album "Songs For The Deaf."
For a hard, progressive style, this Queens of The Stone Age album deals out a handful of catchy tunes that could even have the occasional listener tapping in for a leisurely listen. With songs like "I Sat by the Ocean," "If I Had a Tail," and "Kalopsia," there is a song that any music fan could—at the very least—appreciate.
The variety of style, tempo and tone that is found in "...Like Clockwork" is what stands out most for Queens of the Stone Age this year. And with guest appearances from members of bands such as the Scissor Sisters, the Arctic Monkeys as well as an appearance by the one and only Elton John, it isn't a mystery as to how that range of style worked its way into the album.
"...Like Clockwork" may be the only new Queens of the Stone Age that fans get for another few years—it's a good thing they made something worth listening to.

A year ago, a batched restoration of a fresco of Christ by an 80-year-old Spanish pensioner drew mocking laughter. Now, the artist Cecilia Gimenez has the last laugh. Officials in Borja, a town of 5,000 people in northwestern Spain, said the fresco has drawn more than 40,000 visitors and raised more than 50,000 euros ($66,285) for a local charity. Next week, Gimenez and the local council which owns the sanctuary are to sign a deal sharing the profits from merchandising that features the image.

Netflix cranks out noteworthy original programming
By Kaitlyn Hilgers
khilgers@kansan.com
Netflix has started an ongoing war with itself. In the beginning, when Netflix announced that it would be doing original programming, there were definitely some mixed feelings. However, "House of Cards" proved all of the doubters wrong; it was the perfect mix of drama, good acting and storytelling. Suddenly everyone was talking about how Netflix could do no wrong. Then came the disaster called "Hemlock Grove." With a show that no one place in a specific category, with actors that were not really up to par with Kevin Spacey, and just downright stupid plot lines, audiences had their doubts reinstated and were frustrated as to why Netflix couldn't just leave the programming to other companies.
Now, with the introduction of the newest original series "Orange is the new Black." Netflix has been able to prove itself once again. The show is smart, creative and just incredibly funny. Not to mention the acting, especially from Danielle Brooks and Natasha Lyonne is spot on. However, the one item that makes the show is the chemistry between all the characters. They are able to play off each other perfectly, despite this being the first season of the show.
However, it really isn't the acting, the story line, or even the writing that makes the show. Rather, it is how the show doesn't make light of issues dealing with race or class. Instead, the characters and the story face them head on and talk about them in an open fashion. It not only makes the show more realistic, but it also makes it more
interesting because questions and problems that audience members would be dealing with if they were in a similar situation are being answered. I don't know if it is because it is loosely based off a true story, or it's just the creator's brilliant mind, but whatever it is, it's working.
The next step for all of these Netflix shows? A second season. Please. I understand that there is one on the way, taping has officially began, but things need to speed up. This is my personal plea to Netflix to start building off these wonderful storylines and let me waste more time in front of my computer. I understand that this may be a strange request, but I would really love to be able to see what happens to these characters, especially Poussey. You have made a name for yourself Netflix, now prove that you are in it for the long haul.

Actor Jason Patric, urged lawmakers to approve a bill that would allow him another chance to seek paternity rights for his 3-year-old son, while appearing before the Assembly Judiciary Committee in Sacramento, Calif.
California paternity bill stalled
ASSOCIATED PRESS
Patric says he hasn't seen the
SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) — A bill sparked by a custody dispute involving "The Lost Boys" actor Jason Patric that would allow certain sperm donors to seek paternity rights in court is on hold after failing to clear a legislative panel Tuesday.
Patric testified before state lawmakers about his court battle to gain custody of his now 3-year-old son, Gus.
A judge deemed him a sperm donor — rather than a parent — during a custody dispute over the boy.
He and his ex-girlfriend, Danielle Schreiber, conceived the child through artificial insemination. Patric and Schreiber, who never married, disagree on the role Patric was to play in the child's life.
child in months and asked lawmakers to think about "a child sitting daily and wondering what happened."
As a result of that case and others brought to his attention, state Sen. Jerry Hill, D-San Mateo, put forward legislation that would allow a man whose sperm was used to conceive a child through artificial insemination to seek parental rights if he can show a certain level of involvement in the child's life.
Hill says his bill, SB115, is an attempt to clarify a 2011 statute, which said unmarried men who provided sperm to a doctor or sperm bank do not have parental rights unless otherwise agreed to in writing prior to conception.
The measure sailed through the Senate without opposition but recently has generated aggressive lobbying from representatives for Patric, Schreiber and organizations involved in child custody and women's rights.
Among the bill's supporters are Equality California and the National Center for Lesbian Rights, which say the bill strikes the right balance by requiring a donor seeking parental rights to have lived with the child and presented the child as his own.
Opponents — including the state's chapter of the National Organization for Women, Planned Parenthood, and the Academy of California Adoption Lawyers — say the measure is too broad and could unintentionally affect the rights of single mothers or same-sex couples who use sperm donors.
In emotional but measured testimony Tuesday, Patric told the Assembly Judiciary Committee that he went to "great lengths," including surgery, to become a father.

EXTREME SPORTS
THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN
British stuntman Mark Sutton parachutes into the Olympic Stadium dressed as James Bond during the Olympic Games 2012 Opening Ceremony. Sutton died in an accident in the Swiss Alps while flying a special wing suit. Online extreme sports broadcaster Epic TV said he died during a gathering it had organized involving 20 wing suit pilots who were being filmed as they jumped from helicopters. Swiss police confirmed that a 42-year-old Briton died Aug.14, in a fall near Trient in the Valais region.

Jumper dies in Alps accident
ASSOCIATED PRESS
He wasn't a competitor, but Mark Sutton still got one of the biggest cheers of the 2012 Olympics.
Sutton, who was killed during a wingsuit jump in the Alps this week, was the skydiver who parachuted into London's Olympic Stadium during the opening ceremony dressed as James Bond, alongside another stuntman disguised as Queen Elizabeth II.
It was the punchline to a filmed sequence in which Daniel Craig's Bond escorted the real queen from Buckingham Palace onto a helicopter — and, for many, the highlight of director Danny Boyle's ceremony.
Swiss police confirmed that Sutton died Wednesday when he crashed into a rocky ridge near Trient in the southwestern Valais region. They gave his age as 42.
Boyle on Thursday paid tribute to Sutton, saying he and fellow diver Gary Connery had "made the stadium gasp ... and left indelible memories for people from all walks of life all over the world."
Wingsuits — aerodynamic jumpsuits that make wearers look like winged superheroes — allow fliers to jump from planes, helicopters and occasionally cliffs and soar long distances before opening parachutes to land.
"The show was built from so many contributions from so many people, none finer and braver than Mark Sutton," Boyle said. "On behalf of everyone in the show we were all honored to have worked with him and to have known him as a friend and a professional."
London 2012 chief Sebastian Coe said Sutton was "a consumate professional and team player" who
would be widely missed.
Online extreme sports broadcaster Epic TV said Sutton was killed during a gathering it had organized involving 20 wingsuit pilots who were filmed as they jumped from helicopters. The firm said Sutton's death was "a tragic loss for the global wingsuit community."
The former British Army officer with the Gurkha Rifles who worked as a derivatives adviser was an accomplished skydiver. He performed at the Olympics alongside his friend Gary Connery. Sutton was the tuxedo-clad Bond, while Connery wore a pink dress and wig to play the queen.
Connery told The Sun newspaper that he had lost a friend who was "smart, articulate and funny."
"In any sport where you share a common bond you can make friends in a heartbeat that last a lifetime," he was quoted as saying. "My relationship with Mark was like that."
Sutton was an experienced participant in the exhilarating but dangerous world of wingsuits jumping, and had worked with Connery on a bid to complete the first jump from an aircraft without a parachute. Sutton filmed Connery's successful attempt in May 2012.
Valais police, who are investigating Sutton's fatal accident, said crashed into a mountain ridge and fell to his death after jumping from a helicopter at 3,300 meters (10,800 feet)
Epic TV editor-in-chief Trey Cook said Sutton jumped with another diver who was wearing a camera, though the moment of impact had not been captured.

Debbie Rowe, Michael Jackson's former wife and mother of two of his children, leaves Los Angeles County Superior Court after testifying in the negligence lawsuit filed by Jackson's mother, Katherine Jackson, against AEG Live Aug. 14 in Los Angeles. Rowe broke into tears when she took the witness stand in the civil case and described the singer's fear of pain and reliance on physicians. She said the pop star trusted doctors to prescribe pain medication to him, but they sometimes tried to outdo each other while losing sight of Jackson's care.

Jackson's ex-wife admits drug concerns
ASSOCIATED PRESS
Michael Jackson's ex-wife acknowledged Aug. 15 that she was concerned that some of his frequent medical visits were motivated more by a desire for drugs than by the treatments he received.
Debbie Rowe testified during the trial of a lawsuit that she told Jackson about her concerns when he would go to his longtime dermatologist more than once a week in the 1980s and early 1990s.
Rowe worked in the office of the dermatologist, Dr. Arnold Klein.
Rowe said, adding that she was concerned he might be in search of drugs rather than treatments for blemishes with collagen injections. "I didn't necessarily see what he wanted to have done."
"I didn't understand why he would come in twice in one week."
Rowe has offered a conflicting portrait of Jackson's medical treatments during her testimony, saying earlier that she never saw him engage in doctor shopping or request specific pain medications. She said many of the visits were legitimately tied to treatments for the skin-lightening condition vitiligo and scars he sustained after being burned during a Pepsi commercial shoot.
kowe, clutching a tissue and breaking down at times, described Jackson as suffering debilitating pain throughout the nearly 20 years that the pair were close friends.
She said her husband trusted his doctors and depended on them to give him proper medications.
"When it came to the pain ... it was more begging for relief than anything." Rowe said. "He respected doctors so he wouldn't question what they were doing."
Rowe is the mother of the singer's two oldest children, Prince and Paris Jackson.

Rowe hugged Katherine Jackson and held her hand during a break in testimony.
Rowe was called to the witness stand by AEG Live attorneys but told the jury on Aug. 14 that she was not testifying for either side and wouldn't have come to court if she hadn't received a subpoena.

Orson Welles' lost film found
HOLLYWOOD
ASSOCIATED PRESS
MILAN — A long-lost Orson Welles film that was believed destroyed in a 1970 fire has been discovered in a northern Italian warehouse and will finally make its public debut 75 years after being filmed, an Italian film archive announced Thursday.
The silent film "Too Much Johnson," a slapstick comedy made just before Welles went to Hollywood to film "Citizen Kane," was found in a box that had been stored for years in the northeastern city of Pordenone before being identified, said Giuliana Puppin, a spokeswoman for the archive, Cineteca del Friuli.
How the 35mm nitrate print
How the 531 arrived in Pordenone remains a mystery.
Found by a shipping company, it was turned over at some point to a local film society — but the film seemed of
"I said, 'It is something very precious, take care of it. You have found a film that has been missing for decades.'"
"Too Much Johnson" stars Joseph Cotten and is less a feature film than a series of scenes made to be shown as part of a production of the play by the same name, said Circo Giorgini, an Italian expert on Welles who identified the film about three years ago.
"I said, 'It is something very precious, take care of it. You have found a film that has been missing for decades.'" Giorgini said.
"We don't know where the box came from. There were no documents with it. We don't know the road it took," Puppin said.
no particular value and was left unopened for many years, Puppin said.
Giorgini asked he knew immediately "Too Much Johnson" had been found when he got a call from a friend saying he believed he was in possession of a Welles film that starred Cotten wearing a straw hat — the give-away.
It is not known how many copies of the film were actually made.
It was never finished and never shown publically.
The expert said actually viewing the film "was like finding an important, lost painting — like seeing a painting of Caravaggio that no one knew about."
While the existence of the film was known, the only remaining copy was believed to have been destroyed in a 1970 fire at Welles' home in Madrid.

age of 20, was demonstrating a great talent and great mastery of cinema. It would be confirmed a few years later with "Citizen Kane," he said.
The film has been newly restored by the George Eastman House in Rochester, New York, with funding by the National Film Preservation Foundation in San Francisco.
It will debut Oct. 9 at Le Giornate del Cinema Muto, a silent film festival in Pordenone.

BACK TO THE FUTURE
ASSOCIATED PRESS
In this July 20, 2013 photo, patrons watch a movie at the Skyview drive-in theater in Lancaster, Ohio. The Skyview was the first drive-in theater in Ohio to convert to a digital projector. The latest threat to the existence of drive-in theaters is the conversion from 35mm film to digital prints and the expense involved in converting projectors to the new format. (AP Photo/Jay LaPrete)
Change in technology threatens drive-in theaters, but it didn't stop a new venue in Ohio.
LANCASTER, Ohio (AP) Through 80 summers, drive-in theaters have managed to remain a part of the American fabric, surviving technological advances and changing tastes that put thousands out of business.
Now the industry says a good chunk of the 350 or so left could be forced to turn out the lights because they can't afford to adapt to the digital age.
Movie studios are phasing out 35 mm film prints, and the switch to an eventually all-digital distribution system is pushing the outdoor theaters to make the expensive change to digital projectors.
The $70,000-plus investment required per screen is significant, especially for what is in most places a summertime business kept alive by
mom-and-pop operators.
Paying for the switch would suck up most owners' profits for years to come.
The United Drive-In Theatre Owners Association figures 50 to 60 theaters have already converted. At least one operator has decided to close down instead of switch, but it's not clear how many more might bite the dust.
"Everyone knows eventually that you'll be digital or you'll close your doors," says Walt Effinger, whose Skyvue Drive-In in the central Ohio town of Lancaster has been showing movies on an 80-foot screen since 1948. "Some will. If you're not doing enough business to justify the expense, you're just going to have to close up."
Effinger worked at the Skyvue off and on for 30 years before he and his wife, Cathie, bought it two decades ago.
Because the films now come on a device the size of a portable hard drive and are downloaded to his projector, it's less hassle for him on movie nights and gives viewers a stunningly brighter, clearer image.
Think of the picture on a flat-screen digital TV, compared with the old tube set.
The digital transformation has been underway in the film industry for more than a decade because of the better picture and sound quality and the ease of delivery — no more huge reels of film.
They converted to digital last year, the first of the state's 29 drives in to do so.
The time frame isn't clear, but production companies are already phasing out traditional 35 mm film, and it's expected to disappear completely over the next few years.
"We know fewer and fewer prints are being struck," says D. Edward Vogel, who runs the historic Bengies Drive-In in Baltimore and is spokesman for the United Drive-In Theatre Owners Association.
An industry incentive program will reimburse theater owners 80 percent of the cost of conversion over time, Vogel says, but because most drive-ins are small, family-run businesses, it's hard for many to find the money, period.
And the reimbursement doesn't cover the tens of thousands of dollars more that many will have to spend renovating projection rooms to create the climate-controlled conditions needed for the high-tech equipment.
It's a dilemma also faced by the nation's small independent theaters, many of them struggling to pay for conversion to digital years
after corporate-owned multiplexes already did it.
Darci and Bill Wemple, owners of two drive-ins in upstate New York, hope an online competition will help them with the $225,000 to $250,000 they figure it will cost to switch their three screens.
The American Honda Motor Co. is compiling online votes for the nation's favorite drive-ins and is going to pay the digital conversion costs for the top five vote-getters. The Wemples say that if they don't get help, they'll have to consider closing up.
"To make this kind of conversion with three screens is like trying to buy another drive-in all over again," says Darci Wemple, whose El Rancho theater in Palatine Bridge is among dozens of drive-ins featured in the Honda ad promotion.
Number of drive-ins peaked at
more than 4,000 in the late 1950s. Now there are 357.
Robyn Deal and Dave Foraker have been going to the Skyvue in Lancaster since they were both in school in the 1960s and early '70s. On a recent weekend night, they sat together in folding chairs outside their car, blankets on their laps and their 12-year-old dachshund, Wilson, getting lots of attention just before a double feature of "Turbo" and "The Wolverine."
"A lot of the things I did when I was kid are gone," he said. "I think they're trying to keep what's left."
"So much of our heritage is going away, and this is one of them," said the 60-year-old Foraker, who figures his first movie at the Skyvue was "Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?" around 1966.

Moviemaker's home opened to public
ASSOCIATED PRESS
Down a narrow, dead-end street in a middle-class neighborhood of Mexico City, a three-story brick house with white window frames gives up no hint of the bizarre, even shocking images that were dreamed up inside.
Luis Bunuel, known as the father of surrealist cinema, lived in the simple, gated house over the last 30 years of his life after settling in Mexico as an exile from postcivil war Spain. For a man who assaulted moviegoers with such shots as an ant-infested hand, an eyeball sliced open with a straight razor, and elegant diners sitting on toilets, Bunuel enjoyed a surprisingly genteel life here.
Now, the Spanish government, which bought the house from Bunuel's family, has opened it to a public long fascinated with his work. The plan is to turn the building into a meeting place for Spanish and Mexican moviemakers, with workshops and occasional exhibits staged to celebrate Spanish-language cinema. The inauguration has been timed to coincide with the 30th anniversary of Bunuel's death in the Mexican capital.
'Critics still regard Bunuel as one of cinema's greatest directors, with movies such as 'L'Age d'Or' and "That Obscure Object of Desire" pushing the boundaries of both taste and narrative.
Photographs about the life and films of Luis Bunuel hang at an exhibit inside the "Casa Bunuel" in Mexico City. For a man who assaulted moviegoers with such shots as an ant-infested hand, an eyeball sliced open with a straight razor, and elegant dinners sitting on toilets, Bunuel enjoyed a surprisingly genteel life here. The Spanish government, which bought the house from Bunuel's family, has opened the house to a public long fascinated with his work.
'His Hollywood contemporaries, including directors Alfred Hitchcock and George Cukor, admired the freedom and creativity with which he turned out his 32 films. And his work continues to inspire filmmakers more than 80 years after he launched his career. Director Woody Allen even had Owen Wilson's character in the 2011 film "Midnight in Paris" meet a young Bunuel and suggest the plot

of "The Exterminating Angel," in which guests are trapped in a room for no apparent reason after an elegant dinner party.
Despite that colorful legacy, Bunuel's home is being presented as simply as the director left it, and not with the museum treatment given to the much-visited Mexico City abodes of Russian revolutionary Leon Trotsky and surrealist painter Frida Kahlo. The house can only be visited during events, exhibits or by scheduling a visit with Spain's culture ministry.
Nonetheless, a visit to the house in the neighborhood of Del Valle awakens images of the life Bunuel lived inside.
In fact, Bunuel never imagined his house as a representation of his work, unlike Mexican director Guillermo del Toro's Southern California home, which is filled with images of the monsters and heroes of his films. Novelist Carlos Fuentes once even mocked Bunuel's interior design, calling it "an impersonal as a dentist's office," an ironic barb for a director who spent much of his career lampooning the bourgeoisie.
The sunlit foyer surely made for an ideal spot to drink the dry martinis that Bunuel loved, before retiring to the living room for a film screening. In the back of the house sits a tiny, cozy kitchen of white tiles and outside, a garden with a grill.
"Bunel lived like a petite bourgeois," said Jose de la Colina, coauthor of "Luis Bunuel, Don't Peek Inside," a series of interviews with the filmmaker. "He wasn't trying to pretend he was the bohemian or the misunderstood artist, nothing like that. His life was pretty normal and quiet."
Or as Bunuel himself put it in his memoirs: "I only feel good in my house, loyal to my daily routine."
A priest who got to know Bunuel, however, said the director would stray from the routine by burning the books of Agatha Christie and other writers in the fireplace.
"There was always imagination and humor and good food," his son, Juan Luis, also a filmmaker, once said of growing up in the house.
The house does boast paraphernalia from some Bunuel films such as a movie poster for "The Young and the Damned," which brutally depicted the poverty endured by Mexico City's street children. The film's script and reel canisters are also on exhibit, along with stills from other films and photos of Bunuel at work.
cultural hub that nurtured, among others, Spanish painter Salvador Dali and poet Federico Garcia Lorca, both once close friends of Bunuel.
Built in the early 1950s by architect Arturo Saenz, the building is modeled after Madrid's Student Residence, which was known as a
"In a way, he was nostalgic about Spain," said Javier Espada, the director of the Centro Binuel in Calanda, Spain, the artist's hometown. "The house brings to mind the Spanish style. It has the look of the architecture of an exile."
In the 1964 French documentary "A Filmmaker of Our Time," a paranoid Bunuel said he hardly ever left the "small house with a garden," secluding himself from the world because of his deafness. He told people that he built a fence, with shards of broken glass sticking out, around his den to scare away the thieves.
Bunuel's house opened as a pilot exhibit in December 2011 to mark the 50th anniversary of his
film "Viridiana," which the Vatican once qualified as blasphemous for showing a man almost raping his niece, a novice, and then committing suicide. The home closed again in May 2012 before reopening last week with a round-table discussion featuring filmmakers, journalists and an actress who appeared in his films.
Silvia Pinal, one of Bunuel's muses, said the house looks nothing like it did back when he would invite friends over to share a paella and a martini-like cocktail he called the "Bunueloni." Despite the house's somber appearance, it played host to plenty of festivity, she said.
"The house will introduce this Bunuel many people don't know." Pinal said. "He was not only a director. He was a human being. But where's the cantina?"

Shooting raises campus safety concerns
CRIME
ELISE REUTER
ereuter@kansan.com
The first homicide in Lawrence since 2008 occurred this summer.
Lawrence resident Gary Edens, 51, was found outside his home on July 17, with a bullet wound just above his left ear. His two sons were inside his house on the 600 block of Michigan Street when the crime occurred that evening.
Police spotted two suspects who led them on a brief chase in Topeka: Brittny Marie Adams, a 19-year-old woman from Topeka, and Jonathan Randall Rush, a 28-year-old man from Wichita. Adams was charged with second degree murder, and Rush was charged with aggravated assault, obstruction and criminal possession of a firearm. The Lawrence Police Department is still investigating the case with a preliminary hearing set for Aug. 15.
The July 17 event was the 20th
States. Lawrences violent crime rate of 4.2 crimes per 1,000 residents rests just above the national average of 2.6.
This leaves University students wondering — just how safe is it?
but you can always prevent it. For example, I work in some fairly dangerous parts of [Kansas City], but I always remain on my toes and am aware of the people around me. I have avoided more than one dangerous situation this way."
"Generally Lawrence is a very safe community. However, a student should always exercise caution and be aware of their surroundings."
just how safe is campus?
CHARLES BRANSON
Douglas County District Attorney
"Between all of our emergency call centers and the KU police force, the campus is as safe as it reasonably could be," Moore said. "Safety is more about how you behave in an environment. You can have a crime committed against you anywhere,
Douglas County District Attorney Charles Branson said he was unaware of any changes to security in Lawrence following the case.
Violent crime, though, is a rare occurrence on campus.
"Generally Lawrence is a very safe community. However, a student
should always exercise caution and be aware of their surroundings," said Branson. He also added that alcohol consumption continues to be a cause of crime among students.
"The vast majority of cases involve
non-violent theft," said KU Police Captain Schuyler Bailey of campus crime.
According to the KU Public Safety Office, only two cases of violent crime were reported in 2011, but 212 cases of larceny and theft were reported that year. The majority of items were reported stolen from a building or a motor vehicle.
the Benchmark Survey also revealed that the rate of fraud in Lawrence is significantly higher than average. To guard against identity theft, students should be cautious in giving out personal information, and review credit card statements on a regular basis. Students are also encouraged to sign up for emergency text messaging from KU Alerts to stay informed in the event of a violent crime or crisis.
Edited by Dylan Lysen
TIPS FOR PREVENTING THEFT
The Public Safety Office offers a few tips for preventing theft on campus, including:
- Lock a computer or laptop to a table, desk or other object that would make theft difficult.
- Engrave your property with an owner-applied number.
Engravers can be found at KU Public Safety Office and residence hall front desks.
Don't carry your driver's license or other form of ID inside your checkbook.
- Don't carry anything attached to a keyring that indicates your address.
- Record your serial numbers and engraved numbers and keep this information in a safe place. If you become a victim of theft, these numbers will help to identify the property as yours and help in the return if it is recovered.

Thousands gather to watch their favorite bands perform live at Lollapaloza in Grant Park in Chicago. Lollapaloza is a three-day music festival in downtown Chicago every year.
BLAKE SCHUSTER
bschuster@kansan.com
At any music festival, you're bound to wind up waiting at a stage for the band you love while
a host of others occupy your time. Because you rarely have a chance to stop and look around for an extended moment, it makes sense that these fleeting elements overlap.
On this clear Sunday afternoon in Chicago, Alex Clare stands in front of a crowd of thousands at the Bud Light stage and belts out the smooth chorus to "Where Is The Heart In This?" with a tallit barely peeking out from under his blue button-down shirt. The lyrics seep out of the speakers and slide over the faces of the masses causing you to sway along with the song.
It's an involuntary movement. Your mind is elsewhere. Perhaps dreaming about Phoenix taking the same stage in a few hours, or reliving Saturday night's session with Queens
of the Stone Age, yet your body is grooving.
That's when the breeze comes. The soothing cool that skims off the top of Lake Michigan on the east side of Grant Park and glides across the city. It swirls around your head and neck, rarely dipping any lower. It's not cold, but still chilling, and it's been there all weekend, you just never had time to notice it.
In a season plagued by large festivals, the wind flow is certainly not what separates Lollapalooaza from the bunch. No, this is more of an added perk. A welcomed gift that returns over and over again.
DINING CENTER
As Ezra Koenig, the New York-bred front man for Vampire Weekend, pointed out during his set, other major metropolises don't do this. New York doesn't shut down Central Park to bring more than one hundred artists across all platforms of music to town. Los Angeles doesn't pack 160,000 people onto Santa Monica Pier at once.

Only Chicago sections off its busiest quarter and provides its picturesque skyline as the backdrop for three days of the best music acts in the business. And as far as festivals go, Lollapalooza is the can't-miss event for Kansas students looking to close out the summer on a high note.
"It's my favorite weekend of the year," said Jason Wenk, a senior from Chicago. "It's a great atmosphere where you can see all types of music. Grant Park is a beautiful place to have a music festival."
This year the lineup included the likes of Mumford and Sons, the Killers, 2 Chainz, Major Lazor, Steve Aoki, Dillon Francis, Two Door Cinema Club, Alt-J and the Lumineers, just to name a few. Which brings out the only negative aspect of Lolla: you want to do everything, see everything, hang out with all of your friends, who have no doubt split off into many groups, and you try to be at the right stage when it matters most. An impossible feat on even the least populated of days.
And yet in the early stages of the festival it all seems feasible.
You enter the park on Friday morning while the grounds are still bright green. The park not
yet destroyed by the hundreds of thousands that descend on it for the annual festivities and you're looking for that first moment that makes you feel as if you've left planet Earth, shut off every priority you had and can just float and hum along with the beat.
It's somewhat overwhelming to dig
"It's a great atmosphere where you can see all types of music. Grant Park is a beautiful place to have a music festival."
JASON WENK Senior
into. From the art fair to Buckingham Fountain to the eight stages at Grant Park, one just slightly within earshot of the next, it causes you to wonder: "Is this band good enough right now?" and "Boy, they sure are rocking hard across the way, maybe it's time to check that out."
Jason Wenk let his curiosity get the best of him that first night, ditching a spot at one show to try and fall in with the next.
"I regret leaving the Killers halfway
through to go to Steve Aoki," Wenk said. "I ended up leaving Aoki five minutes into seeing the set and left the festival"
Had Wenk kept his post at the Killers' set, he would have witnessed the chorus of "Soul-diers" serenading Chicago during an encore performance of the song "All These Things That I've Done." One of the not-so-rare moments when the crowd at Lollapalooa morphs into a mass of manias combined for a common cause.
Instead, Wenk made his way over to Perry's Stage, centered at the crossroads of Balbo Avenue and Columbus Drive. The place that plays to one genre and one genre only: electronic dance music.
You know you're getting too close to Perry's when the crowd starts to look younger, clothing becomes more optional and the thumping bass overpowers any conversation. Perry's combines the ultimate dance party with the ultimate people-watching position.

Ad Astra begins platform progress
Page 9
KAITLYN KLEIN
kklein@kansan.com
With a new Student Senate taking office at the University this fall, students may see changes from the shift in leadership.
In April, the student coalition Ad Astra, current Student Body President Marcus Tetwiler and Vice President Emma Halling, beat long-standing coalition KUnited, presidential candidate Brandon Woodard and vice presidential candidate Blaine Bengston, to gain control of Student Senate. Ad Astra ran on platforms for parking ticket forgiveness, eliminating taxes on textbooks and a more accessible and transparent student government.
Student Body President Marcus Tetwiler, senior from Paola, said the first improvement students should expect to see upon returning is a more accessible student government. He said there will be a Student Senate YouTube channel where students can find senate meetings and special announcements.
"Our brand has changed," Tetwiler said of Student Senate in an email. "The way we market our student government will change as well."
Additionally, Senate plans to have its first public forum in early September.
Results for the other platforms won't come as quickly, but Tetwiler was confident that KU Parking and Transit would work with Student Senate to improve the parking program.
Thursday, August 22, 2013
As for the textbook tax, Senate is working with other state universities' student senates to create a statewide platform to lobby the state government when the next legislative cycle begins.
Over the summer Tetwiler joined more than 100 student body presidents across the country in signing a document urging Congress to keep student loan interest rates low.
Edited by Dylan Lysem
"After a summer of tweets, emails, phone calls and work with KU's Federal Lobbyist, students' voices finally had an impact this week." Tetwiler said in an email. "As a bipartisan bill was passed to reduce the student loan interest rate and have its future be tied to the market."

Student Body President Marcus Tetwiler and Student Body Vice-President Emma Halling led the Ad Astra coalition last year.

Bill lowers loan rates, raises concerns for future
KATIE MCBRIDE
kmcbride@kansan.com
Students with loans for the 2013- 2014 school year can let out a sigh of relief following the passage of a new bill for student loan rates. However, students may have more to worry about it in the future.
The Bipartisan Student Loan Certainty Act lowers the interest rates on student loans for the 2013-2014 school year. The bill allows for undergraduates to borrow money at a 3.9 percent interest rate. Graduate students can borrow at 5.4 percent interest and parents can borrow at 6.4 percent. The bill only affects Stafford loans, not loans from private lenders. All rates will remain fixed for the life of the loan.
This legislation connects interest rates to the financial markets. As the economy strengthens, rates may climb for students in the future. A
cap on the rates has been set, but students may pay higher rates next year than students taking loans out this academic year.
Some students view the bill as an obstacle for future students working toward earning their college degree.
"It's going to drive students out of college because they're just not going to be able to afford it anymore," said Greg Walter, a recent graduate from Long Grove, Ill.
Zech Harjo, a senior from Norman, Okla., agreed with Walter concerning the challenges future students may now face.
"It doesn't make sense to make it more difficult for them to get their degree," Hargo said.
The bill passed the Senate on July 24 and the House of Representatives on July 31. President Obama signed it into law on Aug. 9.

For the 2013-2014 school year, Stafford loan interest rates will be:
- 3.9 percent for undergraduate students
- 5.4 percent for graduate students

Meter parking made simple with new app
MARK ARCE
marce@kansan.com
KU Parking and Transit has made parking at meters easier with the introduction of its new meterpayment option, Parkmobile.
Parkmobile allows people to pay for parking meters by phone. Android, iPhone, Windows and Blackberry devices offer access to the new payment system through the Parkmobile app. After signing up for the service in the app, users are prompted to enter their vehicle's license plate and a parking zone number, which is shown on the green "Parkmobile stickers" on available meters. Users then select the desired parking duration, and after charging the amount to a provided credit card number, the parking session is activated.
Those without a smartphone can
Page 11
accesstheservicethroughParkmobile's mobile website, parkmobile.com, or can call Parkmobile's toll-free phone number to utilize the service.
"I'm sure it will be beneficial to students," said Matt Watson, a junior from Wausau, Wisconsin. "You can park at meters and not worry whether or not you have change."
Margretta de Vries, an administrative professional at KU Parking, said another benefit of the Parkmobile system is that it helps students to avoid running out of time at a meter. The app sends text reminders to show how much time is left, and students can pay for more time without needing change on hand to pay the meter.
Edited by Tara Bryant
Parkmobile is available at all long-term meters, as well as all of lot 94 at 11th and Mississippi (west of the stadium).

Myers' drive-through adds convenience
JOSE MEDRANO

jmedrano@kansan.com
Drive-throughs are common sights throughout the country, but a drive-through that sells alcohol is something very uncommon in Lawrence.
On July 29, Myers Liquor located on the corner of 23rd and Alabama opened the first drive-through window in Douglas County.
Rather than entering the store, patrons can now simply pay, pick up and drive off. The idea for the drive-through originated from owner Christian Walter who thought of installing the convenient feature after realizing the hassle of going into grocery and convenience stores.
Myers Liquor adds the first drive-through window to sell alcohol in Douglas County. It is located at the corner of 23rd and Alabama.
Construction of the drive-through took place over the summer along with the addition of a retail building next to the liquor store.

Although the drive-through window has been opened for a short
"Most of the kids are out of town right now, but every kind of person from Lawrence proper comes by," said Russell Schloemer, manager of Myers Liquor.
But students who are aware of the renovation are already excited for the addition.

"I think that when a small business thinks out of box and comes up with a new idea it really helps them compete with other businesses," said Sunny Bhakta, a student at the School of Pharmacy.
But the new convenience has brought up worries of legal matters.
On top of that, the drive-through

and an abundance of basketball jerseys mix together to create one hot sweaty mess, with a very clear line in the crowd of those on ecstasy and those witnessing it.
But that may be the most intricate part of Lolla. One area is nothing like the rest. Concertgoers can spend weeks working to perfect a schedule that makes sure they hit every stage at the right time, while some can walk in with no plan and end up doing the same thing.

"I like being able to go from stage to stage when there isn't a particular group I want to see," Wenk said.
"When there are shows I want to see, I make sure I know the time and place."
Wenk never waited more than 15 minutes for an act to start up. Others waited all day.
On Saturday, it seemed there was a permanent mob gathered at the front of the Red Bull Sound Select Stage waiting for Mumford and Sons.
They sat through Ben Howard. They waited an hour then sat through Local Natives. Another break in the action and then a set from the National. But you finally have time to look around to take mental pictures in your mind and videos on your phone. You see the 30-year-old woman blowing bubbles. You wish you hadn't seen the guy wearing nothing but a Speedo and using it as a fanny pack. You soak every bit of it up. And when it seemed Marcus Mumford would never utter an elongated syllable, there he was screaming to the crowd that stood all day for his group: "I will wait, I will wait, for you."

EATING RIGHT
Planning provides key to healthy dorm food
LELLY GRIMM
egrimm@kansan.com
For many students, college is their first time being away from home and experiencing freedom—and this includes with their food choices. It may be tempting to load up on processed snack foods and TV dinners, especially for students who live in the residence halls and have limited options for food preparation.
MaryJo Paiva, a dietitian who works at Hy-Vee in Lawrence, said she experienced this herself during her college years.
"Students have unlimited access to every type of food imaginable without the balance of proper nutrition that their family homes may have provided," she said.
In addition to a lack of cooking space and limited room for food
storage, Paiva said peer pressure and stress can contribute to students' unhealthy food choices. She also offered some advice on how students living in the dorms can prevent these problems.
"Being organized will help you fill the space you do have with healthy food choices that will fuel you."
MARYJO PAIVA Dietitian
"Have a plan — take about 20 minutes or so over the weekend to plan your meals and snacks for the week and then go shopping," she said. "Being organized will help you fill the space you do have with healthy food
Paiva said that eating breakfast every day will help start the day right and keep cravings at bay. Students can also check nutrition information for on-campus restaurants and dining halls online in order to make educated decisions no matter where they choose to eat.
choices that will fuel you."
Paiva recommended opting for whole grains, healthy sandwiches or the salad bar, and said that students need to be sure to exercise during downtime, even if it's just a walk.
"Looking into this in advance will help make the choice easy and painless," she said.
"It will decrease the time you're sitting around and prevent you from mindless munching," she said.

RECIPES

Teller's, located at 746 Massachusetts St., will change its name to Merchants Pub and Plate beginning Labor Day. The restaurant will also feature craft beers and an ambiance focused on Lawrence's college students. It will also no longer have its wood burning ovens.

BRETT PHILLIPPE
bphillippe@kansan.com
The art of fine dining is changing in Lawrence. Starting Labor Day, the once downtown restaurant mainstay Teller's will look a bit different to customers and will be under a new name — Merchants and Plate.
Owner Phil Wilson said the restaurant was in for a much-needed change.
"We identified the need for an upscale pub with really good, local sourced ingredients," Wilson said. "We wanted to do something that hadn't been done before."
The result was one of the biggest selections of beer on tap in Lawrence. With 30 beers on tap, the restaurant will be taking away all domestics and imports and turning the focus solely to craft beers.
Wilson said another reason for the change was the wood-burning ovens put structural stress on the building
and needed to be torn out.
and needed to be torn out. "Combine this, with the style change, a new name was definitely needed," Wilson said.
"We identified the need for an upscale pub with really good, local sourced ingredients."
PHIL WILSON
Owner
With craft beer being popular in the Midwest, Merchants will have the variety of craft beer for customer choosing and taste. By gathering beer from smaller breweries in the regions of Texas, Colorado, California, Oregon, Washington and Kansas, Wilson hopes Merchants embraces the long beer heritage that the area has and push it forward.
The ultimate goal of the change.
Wilson said, was to embrace the fact that Lawrence is a college town.
"For the longest time Tellers was a destination place, or just for special occasions, and one of the big things that we wanted to be a session bar." Wilson said.
Merchants will definitely fit the bill of the idea of being a college-style bar.
The restaurant will have two large TVs, two happy hours and one of the more interesting deals from 10 p.m. until 2 a.m.: the Four for Four. Wilson described the Four for Four as setting four beers for $4.
Come Labor Day, customers will get the chance to experience the new-look downtown restaurant and its extensive beer collection.

Decorating tips brighten rooms, customize spaces
ASHLEIGH TIDWELL
atidwell@kansan.com
Decorating your apartment can be tricky business with all of the strict rules that complexes have: no painting, no holes in the walls and no candles, just to name a few. It can really put a kink in your style, but there are a few ways you can express yourself without breaking the rules.
BRIGHTENING YOUR SPACE
Apartments.com says that the key to making a space look bigger and more friendly is color. You can add color with bright bedding, a patterned rug and plants.
When used properly, lighting can also make a room look bigger.

according to gardenweb.com.
Adding mirrors to any room adds light and tricks the eye into thinking the room is more spacious. Putting lamps in the
"Command hooks are your best friend," Garren said.
Making the most of a small living space can be difficult. For easy organizational tools, use a vertical bookshelf. This takes up wall space and can help make a tight area appear larger. Bright colored rugs and mirrors can also add the illusion of more space.
MAKING THE MOST OF SMALL'SPACES
Lauren Garren, a senior from Wichita, says that she hangs colorful fabrics on her walls to cheer things up. Of course, she couldn't hang up a curtain rod so she found an alternative:
Let's face it — college apartments aren't usually as spacious as your parents' house; but you still have the same amount of junk to fit into your new place.
Sarah Willingham, a sophomore from Olathe, says that her method is
"You have to make use of the space you have."

COVERING UP THOSE DINGY WALLS

corners of rooms brings light to the entire room, making the space seem larger.
Unfortunately most apartments won't let you paint the walls. This can be a bummer, considering most apartment walls are the same dingy off-white color.
Fortunately, there are other ways to cover up the boring white. Hit up the poster sale on campus, find a few that you love and tack them up on the walls. Or, if you're artistically inclined, you could create your own artwork to
"You have to make use of all the space you have," Willingham said.
The easiest way to do this is to add bookshelves; the taller, the better. By adding bookshelf.
you can take advantage of the vertical wall space. This saves floor space and gives you an extra opportunity to break up the monotony of the white walls.
For those who find themselves sharing a bathroom – particularly women – the best space saving tip is to make a magnetic makeup board. When you have two or three girls, each with a sizeable amount of makeup, you will quickly run out of counter space. So take away some of the clutter and hang it on the wall.

Theater department prepares for new year
DYLAN SHERWOOD
dsherwood@kansan.com
The University of Kansas Theatre Department has already kicked off the 2013-14 season performing the Broadway hit "Kiss Me, Kate" in July. All the performances of the show were sold out.
"Doing this classic was a challenge, because we decided to have our actors play multiple roles," director John Staniunas said. "We decided to do a classical musical first, then later on this year we will do a musical that's more current."
On Aug. 25, interested students are invited to attend the theatre rally at 4 p.m. at the Crafton-Preyer Theater in Murphy Hall to learn more about the department.
The department will perform Bram Stoker's "Dracula," adapted by artistic director Dennis Christilles. In the play, a real estate agent returns to Transylvania and ends up involved in a mystery. Performances are Oct. 3 to 6, 10 and 11.
Most casting has happened already, but some roles will be cast
during the first week of school.
Open auditions for "Dracula" will be held Aug. 26 and 27 from 7 to 10 p.m. at the Crafton-Preyer Theater.
Callbacks will be held on Aug. 28 and 29.
In addition to casting for "Dracula," the department will also have auditions for other shows happening this fall. The shows include "And I and Silence," "Adding Machine: A Musical" and
"We decided to do a classical musical first, then later on this year we will do a musical that's more current."

JOHN STANIUNAS
director
"And I and Silence" is about friendships and hardships of working-classes and African Americans. Performances are Oct. 25 to 27 and 29 to 31.
"The Maderati."
Performances of"Adding Machine:
A Musical" are Nov. 15 to 17 and 22 to 24. The musical follows Mr. Zero,
who has been working the same job at an accounting firm and is about
to be laid off.
"The Maderati" will wrap up the semester with performances Dec. 6 to 8 and 10 to 12. The show is about a Manhattan resident who ends up going to a mental hospital.
The spring semester will include students directing "Black Box: Undergraduate Directed Projects" that will take place Feb. 14 to 16, 18 and 19. The plays will be chosen and directed by undergraduate theatre students.
Shakespeare's "Much Ado About Nothing" will be performed Feb. 28, March 1 and 2 and 7 to 9. Performances of "The Other Shore" will be held April 11 to 13 and 15 to 17. The department will finish out the 2013-2014 season with the musical "Over Here!" on April 25 to 27 and May 2 to 4.

Students participate in a yoga class at the Ambler Student Fitness Recreation Center. Bikram Yoga College of India offers a more intense workout for students who want to switch up their exercise routines.
If your daily workouts on the elliptical and the stationary bike aren't cutting it, try one of these alternative workout clubs to get your body back-to-school ready. Grab your protein shake and read on for more details.

With different instructors leading every class at Title Boxing, each workout is challenging in a unique way. Each follows the same outline: 15 minutes cardio, 30 minutes boxing, 15 minutes abdominal or arm workouts.
"You're never really getting the same exact workout," said Subha Upadhayyula. A junior from Leawood, Upadhayyula attends five to six hour-long classes a week, which often includes waking up early for the 6 a.m. kickboxing class before getting on campus.
from packs of fellow coeds to locals in their 50s, and every time she goes to a class, she befriends someone willing to encourage her if she starts lagging. Boxing at Title, she said, isn't just about tough guys beating each other up.
She doesn't view boxing as masculine turf. In fact, her classes are stocked with men and women alike,
"I don't think that stereotype is going to be there for much longer," Upadhayyula said.
The first class is free and can be scheduled online.

The spray-painted facility looks little like a conventional gym: there are no treadmills to count calories on and no mirrors to be distracted by. Crossfit trainers focus on variety, from snatch squats with barbells to burbee jumping jacks, never letting the body adjust into a workout groove. This exercise philosophy may be unconventional, but it improves not only strength and endurance but increases mobility and flexibility.
The workout of the day is newly programmed each weekday, so the exact exercise routine is a surprise and can be adapted to any ability
level. Free introduction classes are offered Tuesdays at 7:30 p.m.

In a room kept at 104 degrees Fahrenheit, with mirrors on three walls, an experienced yoga instructor is ready to physically and mentally exhaust anyone from college-aged
through 70 years old.
"If I choose yoga as a workout instead of lifting weights, I expect it to be challenging," said Breanne Hutchens. ["Hot agua at Bikrams] makes me feel like I wanna die."
ruthens, a senior from Boerne, Texas, jokes that she could fill a pool with how much she sweats during one of the 90-minute classes she attends a few times a week. The instructor stands on an elevated stage, explaining how each pose benefits
the body -- like how the Eagle pose opens up the 14 largest joints in the skeletal system and improves blood flow. Studios are kept at precisely 104 degrees Fahrenheit for optimal form when posing.
"It's amazing how good you feel after this class," Hutchens said.
Students can bring their own yoga
mats or rent one for $2.

This season's popular styles include shades of white, leather jackets, a classic houndtoof or herringbone print, pastels paired with darker hues and lots of layers. Try one of these looks to update your wardrobe.
It's a new semester and it's time to get your wardrobe in order with these five essential looks
FALL FASHION MUSTS
As college students, let's just say a majority of us don't have a surplus of pocket change to spend on "What's Hot" this fall. To make it easier on everyone, and your extra beer money, here are five simple ways to complete your fall wardrobe.
CHRISTINE STANWOOD cstandwood@kansan.com

We're talking "White Hot" this fall and pushing the "no white after labor day" rule back. This means white
on white for a crisp look. A monochromatic look might be too much for some, but if you're feeling bold, go for it. For guys, ease into this look by wearing one of your basic white t-shirts and pair it with white sneakers. For girls, hold on to your summer white skinny jeans and a black blouse and make your look pop with white polished nails.
For those of you who aren't afraid of a going against the grain, the second look is "Anarchy." Suit up in your leather

jacket and dark jeans. Don't be afraid to incorporate one plaid piece into this look or choose studded shoes as an alternative. Guys, break out your long sleeved plaid shirts and roll up the sleeves for a rugged look. Girls should invest in over the knee boots to pair with leather leggings.
3 With all the hype over the royal baby, everybody is fixing his or her eyes on London. For the third look, stick
with the classic houndstooth or herringbone print with an oxford

shirt.
Guys can pair khakis with a neutral button down with a herringbone tie. Girls can pair a turtleneck with a shorter houndstooth skirt to show off the legs.

Top 10 play list eases transition from summer
TOM DEHART
tdehart@kansan.com
New semester, new music. This list of contemporary songs should ease the transition from your summer schedule and atmosphere into your school year.
MATADOR RECORDS
KURT VILE
Walkin On A Pretty Dam
MATADOR RECORDS
"Was All Talk" — Kurt Vile Kurt Vile hasn't been around for as long as some people might think when they first hear his music. The sound that Kurt Vile has reached on his latest record, "Wakin' On A Pretty Daze," has the feel of a laid-back vintage record. With heavy echoes, delays and phaser effects on his guitar riffs and percussion that may or may not be computer generated, the song "Was All Talk" is one that is sure to get you in the mood to do just about anything.
DON DERCOT
AMERICA
DOMINO RECORDS
"True Thrush" — Dan Deacon Like Vile's "Was All Talk," Dan Deacon's "True Thrush" off of his album "America," which was released in 2012, is filled with happy electronic notes, cheerful crowd vocals and a catchy rhythm that sets Dan Deacon apart from other musicians. The song could start off any summer evening event and it brings a great energy to a group that is impossible to ignore, no matter what kind of music you enjoy listening to.
DOMINO RECORDS
Animal Collective is the kind of band that grows on you. If at first you don't like it, try again, and you will find it fairly easy to enjoy. The unfamiliarity of their sound could be both a blessing and a curse—strange time signatures, odd effects, looping sounds and etheral vocals that lend themselves to blend in perfectly with the rest of the sounds in the song.
"Gotham" was released in 2012, prior to the band's 2012 release of the album "Centipede Hz." It's a slower song, filled with melancholic tones, minor chords and a beautifully simple drum beat. Attempt this one on a rainy day, and watch your whole world blend.
"If I Had a Tail"
MATADOR RECORDS
MATADOR RECORDS
Queens of the Stone Age
Queens of the Stone Age
Queens of the Stone Age made an inventive return this year with the release of its first studio album in six years. Not only does the song "If I Had a Tall" bring forth a seriously creative craft that is so personally Queen of the Stone Age's, but the whole "...Like Clockwork" album delivers an energy that had been missed by many fans over the last few years. Queens of the Stone Age has always been known for their distinct riffs and melodies, and both this song and album were able to deliver on both of those aspects.
XL RECORDINGS
"Stormur"—Sigur Ros
"Stormur" – Sigur Ros
It's always an emotional ride when listening to Sigur Ros. Lead singer Jonsi's voice, and his Icelandic and sometimes gibberish - lyrics speak to listeners in incredible ways. Sigur Ros has mastered its mix of slow, ambient, post-rock sounds from its first albums with its happy, pop-sounding riffs from its latter albums over the years. This mix of sounds has resulted in tracks like the ones that were released this past spring on "Kveikur," the band's seventh studio album. "Stormur" is an uplifting song, one that speaks to a listener the way that Sigur Ros's music is always meant to communicate with its listeners.
"The Three of Us"
---
RIVERSIDE
PENTIMENTO MUSIC COMPANY
DEAD OCEANS
"The Three of Us" is the first track off Streetlight Manifesto's fifth studio album, "The Hands That Thieve." The horn section in this ska band has not weakened at all. If anything, the horn section has gotten stronger and the lyrics and songwriting have not lost their effect. Tomas Kalnoky's lyrics are still packed with strong morals, virtues and empowering statements that have the ability to bring truth and reality to listeners everywhere.
Streetlight Manifesto
"1904" — The Tallest Man on Earth The tallest Man on Earth, whose real name is Kristian Matsson, is a Swedish folk singer-songwriter who has revamped the power of folk music for a new generation. His vocals and lyrics have a strong resemblance to those of a youthful Bob Dylan, and Matsson has done a wonderful job of bringing that familiar Dylan sound back to a younger generation. His songs consist of only one or two guitar parts - both of which are simplistic yet brilliant - and not much of any other instruments (except the occasional piano and slide guitar). "1904" is a song that possesses a catchy lead riff with a simple chord progression behind it and a powerful voice to tie it all together.
PAPER BAG RECORDS
PAPER BAG RECORD:
"Pretty Boy" — Young Galaxy
"Pretty Boy" - Young Galaxy
The first time I heard "Pretty Boy," the DJ on KJHK thought he was pretty clever for playing it on a rainy day. I admit it was a pretty opportune time to play the song, and it was a nice song to listen to on an overcast day, but that's only because it is nearly impossible to decipher whether or not this song is meant to be a happy one or a sad one. Young Galaxy's female vocalist Catherine McCandless has the soft, delicate touch of fellow female Canadian vocalists Amy Millan and Leslie Feist. The song will have you replaying it over and over in your head so much that you might end up knowing it by heart eventually.
tim time bomb
TO HAVE
AND TO
HAVE
NOT
HELLCAT RECORDS
"To Have and To Have Not"
— Tim Timebomb
It appears that another member of Rancid has decided to cover Billy Bragg's 1983 protest song "To Have and to Have Not." Tim Armstrong does a version that is slightly more on the skate-punk side of the song—much different than his fellow band mate Lars Fredriksen had done in 2001 with his band Lars Fredrikson & The Bastards. Armstrong's approach to the song is very uniquely done, with lingering influences of all previous projects that he has been a part of in the past, ranging all the way from the Transplants to the earliest Operation Ivy songs.
SAFT HEF LCS HUMDA DE09B9
DAFT LIFE / COLUMBIA RECORDS
"Doin' It Right" — Daft Punk
"Doin' It Right" — Daft Punk
Daft Punk released its latest album on the last day of finals last semester.
The two masked DJs must have known that the release of the album was going to be a good start to the summer. Now that the summer is over doesn't mean that the good times have to stop. "Doin' It Right," the last track off "Random Access Memories" is a perfect tune to head back to school to. It's a song that can be played any time of any day on a leisurely bus ride, car ride, bike ride, or it can be a song to unwind to at the end of the week while you enjoy your chosen vice—or your higher education textbooks.

Fall series premieres break boring summer lull
By Kaitlyn Hilgers
khilgers@kansan.com
After school starts, but before any major homework is assigned, students have the opportunity to relax and ease into the semester. During this time I like to sit down in front of the television and watch anything and everything. September is coming up and bringing TV series premieres along with it. Here are a few shows that are worth checking out.
"PARKS AND RECREATION"
— SEPT. 26 (NBC)
Yall it is time that you treat yosef to some quality comedy. Get ready for Sept. 26, because "Parks and Recreation" is coming back for its fifth season. Being the best comedy show on television, in my opinion of course, I am more than excited to come back to Pawnee.
This show will suffer a major change around the 13th episode though, because it was recently reported that both Rashida Jones (Ann Perkins) and Rob Lowe (Chris Traeger) will both be leaving the show.
I guess now we can assume that Chris and Ann will finally have their ridiculously healthy baby and be able to raise it away from the craziness of small government.
"HOW I MET YOUR MOTHER"
— SEPT. 26 (CBS)
Another comedy to keep on your radar would be the final season premiere of "How I Met Your Mother." After finally meeting the mother in the season eight finale, it is rumored that season nine is going to only cover the weekend in which they first meet, with sporadic nonlinear episodes that the creators had not gotten around to showing previously. Personally, I feel as though this season will get old very fast, but you never know. Or at least we won't know until Sept. 26.
"THE CRAZY ONES"
— SEPT. 26 (CBS)
Sept. 26 will be the night for comedy, apparently, because CBS is also premiering their new show "The Crazy
Ones." This single-camera comedy stars Robin Williams and Sarah Michelle Gellar as a father-daughter combo who own and work at an advertising agency, Roberts & Roberts. They are polar opposite personalities, but unsurprisingly they are able to work together in order to win over not only clients, but their boss and people in their personal lives, as well.
"GREY'S ANATOMY" — SEPT. 26 (ABC)
Also premiering on Sept. 26 is the newest season of the hospital soap opera "Grey's Anatomy."
Ending, as always, on a dramatic note,
we will know Derek and Meredith's baby and how they are as parents,

Of course this is not a show to just tune into, but if all of this drama sounds like your thing be sure to check out the previous seasons on Netflix.

— SEPT. 26 (ABC)
But if you are looking to start something new, be sure to check out "Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D" on ABC.
After premiering the first episode at this year's San Diego Comic-Con, there has been a lot of chatter and excitement over the series. Something that was surprising to fans of the film was the fact that Agent Phil Coulson (Clark Gregg) has mysteriously come back to life after dying in the 2012 "The Avengers" film.
"ONCE UPON A TIME"—SEPT. 29 (ABC)
However, more exciting than his resurrection is the promise Joss Whedon made about new Marvel characters that have not yet been portrayed in the movies.
"ONCE UPON A TIME" — SEPT. 29 (ABC)
Finally, for all you fantasy fans, on Sept. 29 ABC's "Once Upon a Time" will be returning for its third season. It is hard to see where the show is going to go, because with Emma breaking the curse all the way in season one, the show seems to be stretching quite thin.
However, hopefully with the introduction with new characters, such as Ariel, Tinker Bell and Peter Pan, the story will be able to continue and even more so, break from the cookie cutter mold that the show became victim to in season two.

CELEBRATE TRADITIONS NEW AND OLD
Immerse yourself in University culture as the new year begins.
HANNAH SUNDERMEYER
hsundermeyer@kansan.com
To some, the phrase "Rock Chalk, Jayhawk" can be interpreted as a simple slogan, representing a far greater idea of tradition, unification and family away from home. Those three words create the ambiance of a much larger picture, representing the traditions associated with the University of Kansas.
To incoming freshmen it all seems like a lot to take in, but after spending years at the University, campus traditions turn into second nature and an incredible part of everyday life.
Tradition unifies not only fellow members of the student body, but all who take part in the experience.
wneter it is students waving the wheat at football games, taking in the sights at Allen Fieldhouse or simply greeting friends on campus, the University of Kansas is widely known for the passion students have for the various traditions recognized throughout campus. From sporting events to the braying of the campus steam whistle, these and many more aspects of University life provide a unique and unforgettable experience for all those fortunate enough to take part in such traditions.
The atmosphere inside Allen Fieldhouse is possibly one of the greatest attractions at the University, as students from all different backgrounds and interests join together to support the men's and women's basketball teams. Students
dedicate hours of their time for the experience, camping out days, and even weeks, before games and trekking to Allen Fieldhouse at early hours in the morning to draw for the best seats in the lottery.
"One of the best parts about being a freshman in Allen Fieldhouse was realizing that it really does live up to the hype you always hear about before you attend your first game there," said Dalton Jorgensen, a sophomore from Paola. "It doesn't matter if the Jayhawks are winning by 2 or 20, the fans are just as crazy. It's things like that which really set it apart from any other basketball venue. From the pregame video that gives everyone in the crowd chills to waving the wheat after every victory, there is nowhere better to watch a basketball game."
Many locations around campus offer a reminder of the traditions still embraced by the University. While breathtaking to view, avoid walking under the World War II memorial, The Campanile, at all costs. The rumor passed by students from year to year is that walking under this landmark before Commencement jeopardizes graduating within four years.
Nearby, Mount Oread has a lighthearted tradition as the perfect sledding location during snowy winter months. Students have been seen sliding down this steep hill on everything from garbage can lids to dorm mattresses.
As the weather warms up, it is not a rare sight to see students taking a quick jump in the Chi Omega
fountain at the west end of Jayhawk Boulevard, a decoration that has created many memories both sentimental and mischievous. It's a University tradition to splash around on your birthday.
Along with the time-honored traditions that the University has, students can always start new ones. There are opportunities to make your own traditions along with celebrating those that surround the Fieldhouse, Campanile and Oread. As freshmen start their collegiate journey and upperclassmen return, all students are encouraged to become immersed in the unwritten laws of University life and to create their own memories in true Jayhawk fashion.

Textbook prices continue to skyrocket and
Student Senate plans to ease the burden.
GEORGE MULLINIX/KANSAN
The average cost of a textbook has risen from $56 in 2007 to $68 in 2013, according to the National Association of College Students. Many students turn to online versions of textbooks, e-books and rented books, rather than purchasing new, to save money.

With the beginning of a new semester, students are readying themselves to purchase expensive yet required textbooks. Every year it seems the prices continually rise, pulling more cash from students' pockets. Whether they rent, purchase new books or search for used textbooks on sites such as Amazon, students are constantly looking for cheaper options to fund their education.
According to the National Association of College Students, the average price of a textbook has risen from $56 in 2007 to $68 in 2013. Last year, a student spent about $711 on average at the campus bookstore before turning to online resources to find textbooks.
Michelle Brox, a sophomore from Overland Park, said that finding textbooks online seems to be the best option for her.
"If I find out what books I need before the start of the semester, then I usually try to buy my textbooks from Amazon," she said. "If I wait until school starts, I'll get them from either the KU
Bookstore or the jayhawk Bookstore. I prefer buying them online because it's usually cheaper."
With prices rising, many students choose to rent their textbooks or purchase them used. The KU Bookstore offers several options to students in the store and online. Working with Verba, a price comparison company in San Francisco, the KU Bookstore allows students to find better options by comparing prices between new, used and rented books in just a few clicks.
Although students have the opportunity to find lower prices online, the KU Bookstore tries to offer fair prices as well.
"We understand that in some instances we simply can't compete with the online marketplace on some titles, but that doesn't prevent us from listing our prices side by side," James Rourke, assistant director of the KU Bookstore, said. "On average, our catalog is 75 percent competitive with the online marketplace."
"Every cost-saving option on textbooks will result in an increase of textbook prices for the consumer," Rourke said. "The owner of this intellectual property only gets paid on the sale of the new book."
Between rentals, used books and online price comparison, students have a variety of ways to save money. However, it is these money-saving options that are driving up prices. With fewer new textbook purchases, publishers are forced to increase costs.
"Knowledge should not cost so much to obtain."
Publishers are now adding access codes that expire at the end of each semester to combat the rentals and used books that are bringing down sales. This forces student to buy new books and to ultimately spend more money.
"I understand that people have to make money off of textbooks, but I would bet my life that the prices could drop and textbook companies would still be healthily running" Brox said. "Knowledge should not cost so much to obtain."
Although students have no control over publishers' prices, the University Student Senate representatives will use the upcoming year to offer students some reprieve from crippling textbook costs. One of Ad Astra's platforms in the spring
MICHELLE BROX Sophomore
election was to lower the cost of textbook prices by reducing and possibly eliminating the sales tax on higher education textbooks, hoping to save each student $90 each
semester.
Student Senate representatives made the issue known to Kansas lawmakers and hope for positive results when it is addressed in the next legislative session in Topeka.
"Students in the spring election voted for this legislative initiative," said Eric Hurt, Student Senate government relations director. "Lots of progress has been made this summer and we are very happy to report that our plan has the possibility of becoming a legislative issue in the next session in Topeka."
Hoping to save students money, student body president Marcus Tetwiler said he's optimistic about the efforts of Student Senate to lobby the state legislature.
"This will ultimately make textbooks cheaper," said Tetwiler, a senior from Paola. "This will act as benefit, and a sustainable long term relief, for students in a changing higher education environment."
Between KU Bookstore's efforts to offer bargain options for students and Student Senate's initiative to eliminate the sales tax on textbooks, it seems that there may be a cheaper future in textbook expenditures for students.

Money management crucial for students
HANNAH SUNDERMEYER
hsundermeyer@kansan.com
As a freshman, you are beginning a new chapter in your life: a clean slate. With that comes an incredible amount of independence, which can be both beneficial and detrimental. One of the most essential skills ahead is managing your finances. According to the Money Management Center, there are several ways students can learn to stick to a budget and learn to be more money-savvy for the upcoming year.
- Watch out for hidden costs. Textbooks, class-required school supplies, Greek life activities, sporting events and other extra-curricular activities are just a few examples of fees that you may not initially consider. You should also note that, depending on your major, the number of textbooks and other supplies you'll need could differ greatly.
need extra information.
*While campus bookstores specialize in providing the textbooks you need, students should also
consider less expensive alternatives like renting, buying used books or "e-book" versions of the necessary texts.
- Avoid extrinsic food expenses.
With residence hall living comes access to meal plans in the dining hall. It can be tempting to want to eat out; however, with readily available food, it makes much more sense financially to eat in the dining hall as often as possible. It can save some cash which can be put toward other expenses.
- Create a spending plan and stick with it. While it may be hard initially, learning to budget your savings will soon become a healthy habit, reducing your financial stress, making you more responsible and keeping more green in your pocket.
- Do your best to avoid peer pressure to go out all the time. Whether it is a night at a club, restaurant or a walk downtown, or the temptation to spend money in excess.

RESOURCES
Students can find help on campus
EMMA LEGAULT elegault@kansan.com
There are plenty of help outlets on campus that are more than willing to give you a helping hand with your classes.
It's been a great first week of classes; you went to Hawk Week events and traditions night with some new friends and you are starting to feel that Jayhawk pride. Then, you look at your schedule for the next week and realize you have your first exam coming up; suddenly you aren't feeling so great anymore.
If you know you are having trouble with a class and aren't understanding something, try talking to your professor during his or her office hours, usually found on the syllabus. Typically, professors appreciate their students showing an interest and wanting to get involved to earn a passing grade in their class.
Tutoring help is available in economics, biology and some foreign languages, among other classes. Students can request a tutor group during the first 10 weeks of the semester and it costs about $75 per course.
For more information and a full list of tutoring services check out tutoring.ku.edu Under the Academic Success Guides tab there are tips on study habits, taking notes and relaxation tips to keep you calm and at ease during the semester.
The Academic Achievement and Access Center offers one-on-one consultations with a tutor to get help with time management, test taking strategies and more. The AAAC is located on the first floor in Strong Hall.
Keeping up with a full class load and extracurricular activities can be difficult at times, but there are ways that you can keep your grades up and do well in school. The best thing to do is develop simple study habits to add to your daily routine.
"The biggest thing I ask from my students and myself is to look at the material every day for at least an hour," said Daniel Hilliard, a senior from Bonner Springs, who has been
a tutor since his sophomore year.
"I really think if you can look at your material when you are not tired and have a good attitude about it every day, then your success in the class will increase dramatically," he said.
The Writing Center is another place to get help, specifically with writing papers. Located in Anschutz Library, there is always someone there to help jump-start your paper when you don't know where to go, or they can give feedback on a paper you have already written.
If grammar isn't your thing, the center has a "grammar guru" you can ask for some help.
Live consultations are available using Google+ Hangouts from a Jayhawk-Writer.
There are plenty of places scattered around campus and Lawrence that make for great study spaces to get away from your normal surroundings and focus on your classes. If you like a quiet place to study with few to no distractions, check out Watson Library.
"In my opinion, Watson library is one of the best places to study around town," Hillard said. "I prefer it over Anshutz because it has more warmth to it. It is also better than cafes that tend to distract more than provide a suitable work zone."
If you have a group that you like to study or work with, but you don't want to be too much of a distraction in Watson, check out Anschutz library.
Edited by Lauren Armendariz
"I like studying at Anschutz because it offers places that are either quiet or you are able to interact with a group." Amy Seeds, a senior from Overbrook, said.
No matter how many semesters you've attended the University or how many classes you've taken, sometimes a little extra help is needed. All of these resources are here to help you get through your semester smoothly while being as stress-free as possible.
MARKETING
The University offers several resources for students dealing with stress. So when it hits the fan, don't freak out like this student. Find someone who can help, and solve your problem like a responsible adult.

"God, Grant Me," a film created by two Lawrence residents, is currently in production. The duo reached their fundraising goal of $4,500 on Kickstarter in July.
The film met its goal in the last hour with 69 backers donating a total of $4,530. One of those backers is Michelle Leatherby, a graphic design student at the University from Fayetteville, Ark. As a photographer herself,

she said it was important to her to help fellow artists see their work come to fruition.
"I think it's important as an artist to support other artists work, even if it's a completely different field," she said. "It's just nice to
be able to help other people with their projects, because I believe if I had a project they would help fund it as well. It's a real give and take in the artist community."
McGinniss and Friedrich plan to finish and submit the film
in early November to various festivals, including South by Southwest. If accepted, they hope to debut it in Lawrence this spring.

POUR ME ANOTHER
Calorie counts, prices don't deter coffee lovers
DANI BRADY
editor@kansan.com
As summertime comes to a bittersweet end, we begin to put down our iced coffees that got us through the hot days and our summer jobs. Now we move on to a semester of early mornings and long nights of studying beside a hot cup o' Joe.
Before downing our second or third cup of the day, whether it is for taste or to help keep us awake, USA Today suggests there are a few things we should know.
USA Today reported that an increase in coffee prices is possible because of a fungus infecting coffee plantations across South America. Accordind to USA Today, "the problem will not go away anytime soon because of the high cost of disease-fighting chemicals."
Another recent change for coffee drinkers is the calorie counts posted on Starbucks menus. A trip to Starbucks has become a part of avid coffee drinker Rachel Rich's everyday routine.
Rich, a junior from Chicago, said she always orders a grande-sized ice caramel macchiato with skim milk, with light ice and extra caramel. The drink would usually cost about $4.
"I never worry about the calories or realize how much money I would
be saving without it because it has become such a necessary part of my day." Rich said.
Perhaps this part of Rich's day will begin to change when prices rise and calorie counts are posted on menu boards.
"It is an important component in helping customers make more informed food choices," writes USA Today.
"Calorie counts were posted a few weeks ago and there has not been much of a change in orders," Hensz said.
Marjie Hensz, shift supervisor at the Starbucks on Sixth and Massachusetts streets, said there hasn't been much of a difference.
Hensz said she hears the shocked comments from customers about the amount of calories and may see a few more skinny vanilla lattes being sold. But according to sales, frappuccinos are as popular as ever.
What may have not felt like a guilty pleasure before might now have us making different decisions. Are the high prices and calorie context enough to keep us away? Or is that macchiato in our local coffee shop too delicious and just the jolt we need to stay productive?

Despite the potential for rising costs and calorie counts printed on menus, coffee remains a staple in many students' college lifestyle. According to the Starbucks, located on the corner of Sixth and Massachusetts streets, neither have affected recent sales.

PAGES 45 What to expect at a basketball and football gameday

Aringing bell looks out at the happy, buzzing college students and alumnus who camp out on the plush grass at Memorial Stadium on those fall Saturdays.
When the temperature begins to drop in September and October, before the biting cold, after the miserable heat, all seems right on those fall Saturdays.
People cheer, people eat and people most certainly drink on game day in Lawrence. The town buzzes, as parking on Massachusetts Street may be your greatest task of the afternoon. Barbecue is on the grill, just as blue fills the hill.
Soon, Memorial Stadium begins to fill. Early in the season, the student section is a solid mass. Late in the year, it resembles a slice of swice cheese. That's how it's been the last four years on fall Saturday.
You freshman, however, have a chance to have a whole different experience. Where the student section is more likely to resemble a whole block of cheese. Of course, the results on the field will help. But on a fall Saturday in lawrence, when everything else feels so perfect, the game experience can be a part of that.
Defenders Junior Tyler Patmon and sophomore Brian Maura celebrate after forcing a safety on Kansas State during the second half of the game against Kansas State on Oct. 6 at Bill Snyder Family Stadium. Kansas fell to Kansas State 16-56.
You freshman can go to the football games, and make fall Saturdays in Lawrence even better.

The Sports Combo package is arguably the best product Kansas Athletics offers. Guaranteed tickets to all Jayhawk games for each sport is a necessity for every fan. Just don't expect to get a great seat at Allen Fieldhouse on gameday without having to work for it.
The Kansan is here to explain how the camping system works (hint: luck and organization).
LOTTERY
The morning after a home game is crucial, so don't get too wasted celebrating the previous night's likely victory.
Groups of up to 30 people will return to the Fieldhouse to pick numbers at random. Each group gets one pick for every five members in the group.
The groups will then be ranked according to whoever draws the lowest number.
CAMPING
From the lottery until gameday, a member of your camping group must be present at the Fieldhouse from 6 a.m. to 10 p.m.
This is the order in which your group will enter the building on gameday.
This is a little arbitrary because groups can vote on ending camping days early if the majority agrees.
ROLL CALL
During camping times, anymember
of any group can call roll, at which point a member from each group must be present and accounted for.
The student who calls roll will read off a list of group names in the order that they will enter the building on gameday.
If a member of any group is not present that group will be crossed off and will be forced to sign up again at the bottom of the list.
This is how you can move up the list during camping. The number you choose at lottery isn't necessarily the number you will end up with.
However, if a group is unfairly crossed off, the group may plead their case to those already on the list and can be voted back into their original slot by the majority.
FINAL NUMBER
This is the official spot that your group will enter the Fieldhouse.
About four hours before tipoff a final roll call will take place and groups will be handed a number.
For updates throughout the week of camping, you can follow @ KU_BBallCamping on Twitter, or email KUBballcamping@gmail.com with any questions, comments or concerns.
Once a group receives its number, the group is free to leave the building. Groups will be allowed to re-enter the building two hours before tipoff in order of their numbers.

ONCE A JAYHAWK...
Ten former players are making their mark in the pros

BEN MCLEMORE
Since 2004, NBA teams have come together each summer in Orlando, Fla., and Las Vegas to give prospects and draftees a chance to showcase their skills before training camp opens up in the fall. The 2013 NBA Summer League saw 10 former Jayhawks work to impress scouts and coaches. Playing strong over the course of the short tournament doesn't guarantee a roster spot, but a poor showing can just about take it away.
After one season in Lawrence, during which he set the Kansas freshman scoring record (15.9 ppg), McLemore was taken 7th overall in the 2013 NBA Draft by the Sacramento Kings and has shown that he can shoot at the next
level. McLemore averaged 15.8 points while starting all five games, including a 27-point outburst in his final match.
MARKIEFF MORRIS
MARCUS MORRIS
The Houston Rockets reunited the Morris twins last season as part of a three-team deal that sent Marcus to Phoenix where he and Markieff have begun to re-establish the chemistry that made the duo dominant down low for the Jayhawks. Marcus started all seven games with his brother
In his third Summer League season, the elder Morrii proved that his game is transitioning to the NBA. Morris started all seven games for the Phoenix Suns and averaged 13.6 points and 6.4 rebounds. The Suns lost the championship game to Golden State despite Morris notching 10 points and seven boards.
Now on his third team in two years, Robinson has been given another chance to prove his worth, this time with the Portland Trailblazers. The former 5th overall draft pick by the Sacramento Kings finished with the third most rebounds in Las Vegas (12.8 rpg) while scoring 10.4 points per game for the Portland Trail Blazers.
and, while his 14.3 points per game exceeded Markeiff's total (13.6). Marcus didn't rebound nearly as well as his brother (3.9).
Releford was arguably the best perimeter defender in college basketball last season but did not hear his name called on draft day last June. Instead he accepted a tryout

McCay sat out the 2012 season due to NCAA transfer rules but is expected to be a key player in the Jayhawks' passing game this season. At 6'2", McCay has the size and speed to torch defenses.

Sims finished the 2012 season with the second-most yards of any Big 12 running back with 1,013 yards despite sitting out the first three games of the season. If he keeps getting the ball there's no reason he can't do it again.

Another season, another new quarterback. Jake Heaps will get a chance to tame the Jayhawks' offense. After setting freshman passing records for yards and touchdowns at BYU, there's much to look forward to.
31
Heeney led the Jayhawks with 112 tackles last year and figures to be a key player up the middle again. Kansas ranked second-to-last in the country in total defense last year. Heeny will have to help turn it around.

After choosing Kansas over Iowa State, Kansas State and Indiana, Sendish will be counted on as one of many junior college transfers to make an impact right away.

TIME CAPSULE
Bill Self has not made his job any easier the past five seasons. In fact, all he's done is raise the bar for whoever follows in his footsteps. The Jayhawks have gone 158-27 over that stretch and are pursuing their 10th consecutive Big 12 regular season title after splitting the award with Kansas State last year. But the accolades extend far beyond Big 12 play and into March. Kansas took a trip to the Elite Eight in 2011 and the Final Four in 2012.
All the while, Self and his staff have been producing NBA talents such as Cole Aldrich, Marcus and Markeiff Morris, Tyshawn Taylor, Xavier Henry, Thomas Robinson, Jeff Withey, Ben McLemore and Josh Selby. A second National Title has eluded Self but he finds a way to keep his teams in contention.
The Jayhawks boasted one of the most talented and experienced teams in
the nation during the 2012-13 season
and used that combination to make
a third consecutive appearance in

the Sweet 16. Kansas fell in overtime to the eventual national runner-up Michigan Wolverines, forcing it to cut ties with some of the program's most productive players.

THE MORNING BREW Fans of Johnny Football too caught up in his personal life
College football benefits from Johnny Football. The fan benefits from Johnny Football. And Johnny Football's mere existence in a Texas A&M uniform is in trouble.
By Mike Vernon
mvernon@kansai.com
Johnny Manziel is a 20-year-old kid on an awful large stage. He drinks. He once got in trouble for a fake ID. He takes pictures with scantily dressed coeds. He enjoys his summer. He recently woke up "dehydrated." And there have been unproven claims that he received money for his signature.
He's a Texan with a cool nickname who also happens to have the most prestigious individual trophy in sports resting on his mantle. He's the first ever freshman to win the Heisman trophy and was the most polarizing player in college football last season.
Now, those investigating Manziel for his alleged rule breaking should continue doing their job. When it comes to the media and the average college football fan, Manziel's personal life, should be removed from the tray under the microscope.
KU
the tiny shores of the Mississippi.
Manziez's summer headlines look more like tabloid-gossip than your typical offseason stories. Sure, he brings much of this upon himself. But there's also something so juicy, so much more entertaining about "Manziez: The quarterback who lost
It's time to leave Johnny Football alone.
Yes, he is certainly a kid that has more responsibilities than your typical college student. Of course he is. Of course children look up to him. It's a shame those children have to see a story on ESPN about Manziel getting kicked out of a fraternity party. A decent amount of college athletes go out, because that's what college students tend to do. It's a piece of a normal lifestyle they get to live out. Manziel is doing the same.
control," than "Manziel: Works out; people impressed."
Texas A&M isn't the Titanic, and Manziel isn't captaining the ship. His offseason behavior is no reason to be concerned about his play on the field — that is until he plays a football game hungover. If the Aggies struggle, it will be because of better scouting reports on Manziel. Not because of the quarterback living a more visible offseason lifestyle.
People tend to drool when Manziel does something...college. They act like he's captaining the Titanic when he acts like a somewhat typical college kid, nonetheless one that won the freaking Heisman. Of course he's going to try to live it up. I certainly would.
The facts stand that Johnny Football's play was as aesthetically pleasing as a college quarterback's play can be. He would sprint around the field, inches shorter than the men protecting him and the defender's chasing him, zigging and zagging through the crowd while keeping his eyes on his targets ahead of him. Then, hed zip a pass magically falling into his teammates hands.
This is the kid who took down Alabama. And he's also the kid with a shirtless mug shot.
It's a juicy dilemma, but it's one that needs to stop.
The offseason is boring. Johnny Football isn't.

Incoming freshman small forward Andrew Wiggins has a lot of hype surrounding him and rightfully so. The top prize of last year's recruiting period, Wiggins highlight tapes and scouting reports have built up the Toronto native as the next NBA superstar.

WAVE THE WHEAT
GAMEDAY After a long summer away, it's time to brush up on some Jayhawk traditions
Fans cheer as they sing the Alma Mater during a basketball game last season. Other gameday traditions include camping for basket ball games, the Rock Chalk Chant and waving the wheat. Don't forget to pick up your student tickets from the ticket office this week.
BASKETBALL
DYLAN LYSEN
dlvsen@kansan.com
It's no secret that Kansas Jayhawk men's basketball is the driving force behind the University's national recognition.
For students who have not yet witnessed a jayhawk basketball game in person, there is a lot to learn about a basketball gameday at Allen Fieldhouse.
LOTTERY AND CAMPING
The quickest way to realize that Jayhawk basketball is important to University students is to participate in basketball lottery and camping. The morning after each home game, students flock to Allen Fieldhouse at 6 a.m. to test their luck in drawing the coveted No. 1 spot in line for camping.
After lottery, camping starts immediately, but can sometimes be delayed if the campers vote to do so.
A member from each group camps at Allen Fieldhouse from 6 a.m. to 10 p.m. until the day of the game.
On the day of the game, campers will start to line up on the north side of Allen Fieldhouse once camping is concluded about two hours before
ENTRY LINE
For more information on lottery and camping, read the story on page 36.
doors open for students Camping groups will be assigned a number and line up in numerical order. Doors open for student tickets two hours before game time.
Page 45
Students who are not campers will line up in a separate line next to the camper line. This line will be admitted to the building once all camping groups have entered. Seats fill up quickly, though, and general admission ticket holders are admitted an hour and thirty minutes before game time.
The north end is larger, and spans the northwest end of the seating. The south end is smaller but features the University pep band.
PEP BAND
Once a student is in Allen Fieldhouse, there are two options for seating: the north end student section and the south end student section. Both sections are shared with general admission seating.
The University Pep Band has an extensive arsenal of songs, including "Tequila" by The Champs, "Livin' On A Prayer" by Bon Jovi, "Come On Eileen" by Dexy's Midnight Runners and, of course, the University fight songs.
SEATING
The Kansan has found its way into Jayhawk basketball traditions. During introductions for home and away players, the Kansan is used in two different ways. First, when the away team's players are being announced, fans hold up the newspaper - usually a poster that the paper prints on
NEWSPAPER
gamedays in the sports section to show their indifference to the opponent's players. Secondly, students like to throw ripped up newspaper into the air when layhawk players are announced. Fans often build newspaper cones to hold pieces of ripped up newspaper. This takes talent, and will take several games to accomplish on a regular basis.
TRADITIONS
Of course, it wouldn't be a Kansas Athletics sporting event without the Rock Chalk Chant, which reaches its highest volume in the historic building.
Some other interesting traditions during basketball game days are video board presentations during timeouts. Videos that have found their way into the regular rotation include Pop Up Video renditions of a specific Jayhawk player and highlights of a big play followed by Chris Farley's "That was awesome" line from the film "Tommy Boy." During the 2012-13 season, a fan favorite was the "Jeff Withey Block Party" that featured a dis治themed party invitation with Withey and coach Bill Self.
But to get the feel of how much tradition the basketball team has to offer, look no further than the pregame video that is played right before the jayhawk players are announced. The pregame video highlights past player, coaches and events that will live on forever in the hearts of the Jayhawk faithful.

KICKOFF
FOOTBALL
BLAKE SCHUSTER
Include Kansas on the list of schools that get rowdy for the opening play.
bschuster@kansan.com
Fall Saturday in Lawrence bring a different type of madness than during basketball season yet the passion of jayhawks fans remains the same.
TAILGATE THE HILL
Each football gameday is a more relaxed experience. A time to slow down, grill and fill Memorial Stadium with the same energy as Allen Fieldhouse. Those who have never attended a Kansas football game will quickly notice the routines that go with it.
The climb up Mt. Oread is a little easier on Saturday. Fans get out on the hill early, setting up tents, grilling and chugging assorted beverages. Even if you don't have a spot to claim for yourself, just walking around the hill and experiencing the different setups can pay dividends because many University programs have areas to come and grab food before heading into the stadium.
ROCK OUT WITH THE PLAYERS
Aside from the escalating "Ohh" as the jayhawks' kicker gets closer to striking the ball fans have another way of letting their voices be heard. While the university does not condone the practice — and has tried to discourage it on several occasions — it has been a tradition to shout, "Rip his (expletive) head off" once the kick is in the air. Just remember, this is a family event.
If you're sitting near the north end zone prepare for a grand entrance of blaring horns and rocking drums. The Marching Jayhawks will make its way through the crowd and out onto the field before breaking out into a pregame routine that includes "I'm A lahawk" and "Sunflower Song".
PEP BAND
A recent addition by head coach Charlie Weis, after each game the Jayhawks will walk over to the student section and sing the Rock Chalk Chant arm-in-arm with each other. Win or lose the team will face the students they represent and return the respect.

Students riding the University buses may have to do a little more walking than riding during the first week of classes. Road construction on Sunnyside has caused three bus routes to be rerouted.
"It's just not going to be as convenient," said Danny Kaiser, assistant director of KU Parking and Transit.
Construction on Sunnyside began August 17, and according to KU Parking they expect construction to be completed no later than Friday. The bus routes that are rerouted consist of Route 27, which will drop off riders and roundabout at Chi Omega Fountain, Park and Ride Route 41, which will travel up and down Jayhawk Boulevard, and Route 42, which will be dropping off
People parking in the blue lots located on Sunnyside must enter the road from the eastern side. Some of halls and buildings affected by the road construction include Haworth, Summerfield and Dole. Lot 54, west of Murphy Hall, is still under construction, but the project should not affect students or drivers.
All other University bus routes will begin running as usual tomorrow.
"We will get you there as fast as we can," Kaiser said.
Students seeking to know more can go to lawrencetransit.org to find all of the University and Lawrence bus routes.

The film met its goal in the last hour with 69 backers donating a total of $4,530. One of those backers is Michelle Leatherby, a graphic design student at the University from Fayetteville, Ark. As a photographer herself,
she said it was important to her to help fellow artists see their work come to fruition. "I think it's important as an artist to support other artists work, even if it's a completely different field," she said. "It's just nice to
be able to help other people with their projects, because I believe if I had a project they would help fund it as well. It's a real give and take in the artist community." McGinness and Friederich plan
in early November to various festivals, including South by Southwest. If accepted, they hope to debut it in Lawrence this spring.
McCinniss and Frederick plan to finish and submit the film

Lawrence puts new bus purchases on hold
ASSOCIATED PRESS
LAWRENCE, Kan. — Lawrence city leaders are putting the brakes on plans to purchase new buses in order to give another look at using compressed natural gas to power the public transportation fleet.
The city had planned to buy three diesel and diesel-electric hybrid buses, but the lower cost of natural gas is prompting a second look to see if it might be more financially feasible to go with an alternate fuel source.
"This seems like the sort of thing that if we don't at least consider making the switch, we may look back 20 years from now and regret it," said City Commissioner Jeremy Farmer.
The Lawrence Journal-World reported the city conducted a feasibility study four years ago that compared the fuel costs, but it was before natural gas prices dropped and supplies increased. In the last week, the average price for diesel fuel nationally was about $3.90 per gallon, the U.S. Energy Information Agency said. By comparison, compressed natural gas sells for about $2.10 per gasoline-gallon-equivalent — and as low as $1 per gallon in some regions of the country. Increased use of hydraulic fracturing technologies has opened new domestic supplies of natural gas, helping to drive down prices. "I think the numbers probably have changed quite a bit since we last looked at it," said Mayor Mike Dever. Dever said the use of compressed natural gas would be a significant change, though more study is necessary to determine if, among other issues, the savings would be worth it. One of those issues is installation of a quick-fueling compressed natural gas station. Lawrence has access to a slow-fueling system owned by Black Hills Energy at the utility's maintenance shop. It would take several hours to fill a bus tank.
A federal grant will help pay for the city to install a slow-fueling station to be used to test a new compressed natural gas trash truck and a traditional city-owned pickup truck. Dever said a quick-fueling station would cost $2 million to construct.
Dever said choosing a site for a fueling station isn't simple. The city's bus fleet is located in northern Lawrence near the Kansas Turnpike, while trash trucks and other vehicles are based in eastern Lawrence. A station to meet the needs of both operations would require changes in doing business. City leaders also question how long natural gas prices will remain cheaper than traditional oil products. "Is the fracking industry a sustainable one? Because that is really what this is all built on at the moment," Dever said. Residents are driving some of the conversation. Graham Kreicker urged commissioners recently to delay buying new buses until natural gas options were explored. He said natural gas companies are helping communities nationwide install quick-fuel stations in exchange for signing long-term fuel contracts. "There are communities that have gotten over the hurdles you are concerned about," Kreicker told commissioners. "We should be looking toward having a natural gas fleet, and we should encourage the school district to do the same." A report from city staff on the issue is expected to be complet-

Anniversary of Quantrill's Raid creates national buzz
YU KYUNG LEE
yiee@kansan.com
The rivalry between Kansas and Missouri dates back to Quantrill's Raid, when the guerilla leader William Quantrill led 400 Missourians to Lawrence, a hub for abolitionists, and killed roughly 180 boys and men and set the city on fire. The rivalry, then fueled by slavery, is still very much alive, as last week's 150th anniversary of the raid proved, at least on Missouri's side. While several community organizations in Lawrence remembered the date in history by leading the live reenactment of the historical event on Twitter with the nationally trending hashtag #QR1863, some on the other side of the border burnt Kansas merchandise to celebrate the victory of Quantrill. Video and photos of the burning went viral through BuzzFeed, getting more than 2,000 shares on Facebook and 8,400
likes a day after it was first posted. Soon debate raged over social media, with Missourians defending their victory and others criticizing the "classless" act.
where, even if it is now correlated to showing pride in your sports team," Metz Howard said. "It was a tragedy and it's just something that shouldn't be celebrated ever.
The Fake KU Compliance twitter account tweeted "Pretty much sums up the diff between the 2 fan bases #classVStrash - Missourians Rejoice By Burning Kansas Merchandise" with

a link to the BuzzFeed article. Christine Metz Howard, who initiated the #QR1863 project as the communications manager of the Lawrence Convention and Visitors' Bureau, also disapproved of the way Missouri chose to commemorate the anniversary of Quantrill's Raid. "I don't think the loss of nearly 200 men and the destruction of a town should be celebrated any
I mean women lost husbands, children were orphaned and the town really had to rebuild from the ashes." Even the author of the BuzzFeed article Dan Oshinsky tweeted. "There's a much larger
story here about the search for identity that's happening out in the Midwest...and how sports has gotten tied up into an awful, awful day in our country's past., but for the moment, all I've got left is this: I'm a very proud Missouri alum, but seeing this is so upsetting."

States question pensions for private employees
POLITICS
ALBANY, N.Y. — As a lobbyist in New York's statehouse, Stephen Acquario is doing pretty well. He pulls down $204,000 a year, more than the governor makes, gets a Ford Explorer as his company car and is afforded another special perk: Even though he's not a government employee, he is entitled to a full state pension.
He's among hundreds of lobbyists in at least 20 states who get public pensions because they represent associations of counties, cities and school boards, an Associated Press review found. Legislatures granted them access decades ago on the premise that they serve governments and the public. In many cases, such access also includes state health care benefits.
But several states have started to question whether these organizations should qualify for such benefits, since they are private entities in most respects: They
face no public oversight of their activities, can pay their top executives private-sector salaries and sometimes lobby for positions in conflict with taxpayers. New Jersey and Illinois are among the states considering legislation that would end their inclusion. "It's a question of, 'Why are we providing government pensions to these private organizations?'" said Illinois. Democratic Rep. Elaine Nekritz.
Acquario, executive director and general counsel of the New York State Association of Counties, argues that his group gives local government a voice in the statehouse, and the perk of a state pension makes it easier to hire people with government expertise.
"We want the people that work in local governments to continue to be part of the solution," he said. "We represent the same taxpayers."
The debate is more about principle than big money, since the staffs of such organizations are relatively small and make barely a ripple in huge state retirement systems.

"Our business model is focused primarily on delivery," said co-owner Corey Rimmel.
Spoons Yogurt, and adds a new variable to the Lawrence sweets scene by offering a service one may not expect from a business specializing in deserts.
"The walk-in traffic is good, but the biggest part of the business is definitely delivery." Hot Box will deliver to all residents within the Lawrence city limits, requiring only a minimum of a $12 purchase to qualify for delivery (which conveniently equates to 12 cookies). In addition to cookies, Hot Box will offer cookie cakes, milk (chocolate and regular), milkshakes and even their own raw cookie dough for customers to take home and bake themselves. Hot Box's late hours of operation will be conducive to the majority of students' week end schedule. Bimmel said the
shop will initially be open until midnight on weekdays and 1 a.m. on the weekends, but adds that these closing times could get later as the business grows. Rimmel thinks that Lawrence is the ideal city to house Hot Box's second location. "I've been to Lawrence plenty of times over the last seven or eight years, and really love the town a lot," he said. "I really wanted to open the store in a college town to get involved with the community and University."

Birth control options abundant, accessible on campus
Some of you Jayhawks, from what I can gather from every single bar I've ever been to in Lawrence on a Friday night, are interested in sex. You might be frequently having sex. You might infrequently be having sex. You might not have had sex, but want to have it in the near-future. You might be having sex with a casual partner or with someone you're in a relationship with. You might be having sex with a person who is biologically male, or biologically female, or both. The fact of the matter is, despite the kind of sexual activity you do or do not engage in, if you're someone who can get pregnant, or you're going to have sex with someone who can get pregnant, you should probably consider using contraception aka birth control.
This is under the assumption that since y'all are students, you might not exactly want a bun in the oven anytime soon. If that's
not the case, let me know if you need a babysitter, because while I'm currently hanging an "out of order" sign on my oven, babies are pretty cute (from a distance, belonging to someone else, and again, not in my womb). But, if your feelings are similar to mine, and you'd like to avoid pregnancy, here's some tips about accessing birth control while a student at the University.
1. There are lots of different birth control methods. I'm guessing most of you know about condoms and oral contraceptives, or, "the pill". But those aren't your only options. Reversible birth control methods are divided into three categories: intrauterine contraception, such as an IUD; hormonal methods, like the pill, but also including many others like the patch and a hormonal implant; and barrier methods, such as good-old fashioned condoms, as well new-fangled female condoms,
By Katherine Gwynn
kgwynn@kansan.com
spermicide, and diaphragms. It's best to use at least two methods of birth control, each being in a different birth control category (so pairing a hormonal method with a barrier method for example). Bedsider.org is a great resource to check out what birth control method is best for you.
2. As of August 2013, all employer-based insurance plans must include some type of coverage of birth control without co-pay, so if you have health insurance and you want or need birth control, congrats! As a side-note, if you still have a co-pay on birth control, call your health insurance provider—you may need to switch to the generic or brand-name of your current birth control method, or switch to a different version.
3. If you don't have health insurance, there are still ways for you to get affordable birth control. The Lawrence Public Health Department offers a sliding scale on birth control, making it far more affordable to students- it's also completely confidential. This is important if you're in a situation where you're dependent on someone else's health insurance and want to be on birth control, but whoever you're dependent on for health insurance wouldn't support you being on birth control. The LPHD is super helpful, and will work with you to try to best navigate your situation.
4. If you live in the residence halls or scholarship halls, guess what? Free condoms for you! You can usually get them at the check-in desk if you're in the dorms, or find them tucked in with the health supplies in schol-hall land. If you don't feel comfortable getting condoms from your
on-campus housing, you can get condoms (and female condoms, and dental dams, and lube, and feminism) from the Commission on the Status of Women's Cube in the SILC office, located on the 4th floor of the Union, all for the low, low price of nothing.
5. If you're not sold on free condoms, you can also buy them super cheap from Watkins Pharmacy on campus. The average price for most of them is three for 50 cents plus tax. That means for a dollar, you get six rounds of safe, no-pregnancy fun! What a deal.
Basically, birth control is awesome, varied, in your proximity, and very much affordable. So what are you waiting for? Go get your not-babymaking on.

SCIENCE
Environment discussions depend upon research instead of politics
The public is only concerned with the environment when it's economically
when its economically convenient. During the Great Recession, all climate change regulation was out the window as America recovered. Now that recovery is underway, billions of stimulus dollars have found their way to cleaner technology subsidies while all oil and gas activities - from tighter oil to tar sands, pipelines to offshore drilling - are again receiving extra scrutiny. Hell, even the bankrupt city of Detroit found the funds to scrutinize a pile of petroleum coke - a refining byproduct and a coal substitute. There's nothing explicitly terrible with the intensified regulation - oil and gas businesses are familiar with the challenging policy environment - aside from opportunity cost. However, it has become too easy to derail the energy-future discussion. There's just too much arm-waving getting in the way of a great discussion on what it's going to take to get to a better energy future.
"Arm-waving" is another way of saying distracting. Imagine the cheesy movies where one pseudo-hero claims "I'm going to make a distraction!" and then proceeds to do something very silly to distract the villain. I refer to the biggest arm-waving culpits as "the aggregators." They're smart people with great media experience. They read. They synthesize. They write. They find great data and combine it in all sorts of ways, interpreting it to their desired outcome. But, they lack the technical experience to know when what they're arguing is absurd, enflaming all kinds of people.
Let's think about how this impacts hydraulic fracturing. It isn't uncommon to hear someone exclaim that "We just don't know what toxic chemicals are going into the ground during fracting." That claim is just a distraction;
By Chris Ouyang couyang@kansan.com
the real question is whether or not these chemicals are finding their way back to the surface. And if they aren't, then what's the hollering about? There is a definite precedence for storing industrial waste and harsh chemicals underground - see Class I through VI disposal well permitting from the EPA.
But let's entertain the aggregators. What if those harsh chemicals and natural gas itself finds its way to my drinking water? That could be a serious problem. Don't quote flammable water in Pennsylvania. That myth has been debunked years ago; not only is methane naturally occurring in some aquifers there, coal beds produce methane and Pennsylvania is full of coal mining towns.
What then about the Duke Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences study showing higher concentrations of methane (natural gas) in water sources? That study was published just this last year. Now we have a conversation. The aggregators wave a powerful study proving their point. However, if you do a quick Google search for the study and add the word "rebuttal", you find that there's equally damning evidence discounting the study as legitimate. The oil and gas companies remain resolute.
So now we're at square one, a stalemate. The public isn't going to sit down and study the correlation methods used by those Duke researchers. They're relying on information from incredibly unreliable sources, perhaps the natural gas company itself, or environmental groups whose funding depends on shunning any fracking activity. Of course, the public also lacks technical understanding and picks up whatever their side puts
down. The argument continues as everyone tries to influence government policy.
Educating everyone with technical understanding isn't the key to resolving the stalemate. No one is incentivized to collaborate; what difference does it make what they think or know? This is the crux of the issues facing the energy industry.
The energy future isn't about cutting the price at the pump. That's a red herring. It's about trying to preserve the quality of life enjoyed today. What are you willing to pay for electricity? Travel? Air conditioning in the summer and heat in the winter? No one who thinks critically about the energy future has ever claimed that "fracking" is a silver bullet; it's well understood that this stimulation method is a powerful addition to a portfolio of oil and gas extraction techniques.
What does that mean for us here at the University? I'll be writing critically about energy issues all year; I will do my best to not wave my arms as a tree hugger or an evil, greedy oilman. It's complex: an entire novel could be written about how water transportation related to oil production is destroying municipal roads in Pennsylvania or how the U.S. is putting itself at an international competitive disadvantage by refusing to burn coal. Join me for a year of thinking critically about energy. Let's stop aggregating and arm waving, together.

There are classes to go to, an overwhelming number of books to buy and about twenty different activities demanding your attention all at once. As a senior going into her fourth year of this experience, believe me, it doesn't get any less hectic. For most of us, a new school year is like a fresh start, a way to get back on track, improve and discover. Everyone always associates this mentality with freshman; I often hear it phrased somewhat like, "The freshmen are crazy 'cause they're trying to make a new identity for themselves." But in truth, college students are just crazy
Dylan Lysen, managing editor dysen@kansan.com
Personally, I spent the first semester of my freshman year completely overwhelmed by my academic and social life (or lack thereof). As the daughter of two educators, and someone who holds herself to high academic standards, I worried profusely that I wouldn't get good grades. And if I wasn't worrying about my homework, I was worrying that I wasn't meeting enough people because I was too busy worrying about my homework. Needless to say, I made my first semester pretty rough for myself.
What I discovered quickly into my second semester, however, is that everything gets easier (or at least less overwhelming) the second time around. And once I realized that I could still get good grades without thinking about class 24/7 it became more a matter of finding a balance between classes and people, than devoting myself to one and forgetting the other.
This is easier said than done. I've spent many nights staying in with the intention of studying, only to spend the evening watching countless Youtube videos. While this makes for great conversation topics later on, it isn't really conducive to either academics or a social life. Besides, the whole point of a new school year is getting out there, participating, and trying new things, right? Trolling the internet into the wee hours of the night probably isn't going to help you achieve any personal goals (unless trolling the internet is your goal).
So, as a senior at the University, I've made a list of tips I wish someone had shared with me early
HOW TO SUBMIT A LETTER TO THE EDITOR
**Length:** 300 words
The submission should include the author's name, grade and hometown. Find our full letter to the editor policy online at kansan.com/letters.
Remember, college is full of opportunity and experience, and starting the year off strong is huge in making your time here all it can be. If I'd gotten these tips early on, my first semester freshman year would've looked very different. Do yourself a favor and take some initiative to make this year exactly what you want it to be.
5. Don't get bogged down. While ultimately you're here to graduate and get a job, don't get so caught up in the strangeness of college life or the idea of the future that you can't enjoy yourself and be responsible. You can have it your way, but don't get crazy.

4. Make a college bucket list.
How else can you say you truly experienced the University and Lawrence? A few things on my bucket list include swimming in the Chi Omega Fountain, trying every restaurant on Mass Street and studying abroad.
Sean Powers,sales manager spowers@kansan.com
3. Make a list of goals. Since classes are my number one priority, my personal list involves mainly socialization and being active. It's really not a good year until you've made a few new friends, awkwardly trying to learn a new sport or workout regime.
1. Be proactive. Get involved, initiate things, stay on top of homework. Seems simple enough, but with so much unsupervised freedom, the ease and temptation to put off everything and watch Netflix becomes tenfold. I watched every season of 30 Rock my freshman year. Tina Fey is my spirit animal, but you can't put that on a resume.
on in my college career:
2. Keep a schedule. Mapping out what your average week will look like, including class times, commitments, and designated recreational time will help you see exactly how much time you have each week to devote to social activities, studying, and doing anything else (like going down to the coffee shop to stare at the attractive barista).

BUTLER
Director Lee Daniels "The Butter" follows the story of a retired White House butler, played by Forest Whitaker.
'The Butler' offers glimpse into presidential history
ASSOCIATED PRESS
Nowadays, most civilians' only chance of getting into the president's
house is, as demonstrated by the baddies of "White House Down," through the big screen. Director Lee Daniels has decided to give us another peek into the White House in "The Butler." The story, which follows the reality-based life of retired White House butler Cecil Gaines (Forest Whitaker), is a "Downtown Abbey"-esque look at the White House "below stairs" and a behind-the-scenes look at the powerful men who worked there.
Gaines, born into the broken world of the Postbellum South, is pulled from the sharecropping field after the death of his father-killed by a beastly Alex Pettyfer-and taken into the home of his killer's mother, a wealthy

old woman. While working in the house, Gaines is taught how to buttle.
Gaines' butler training continues as he works at a series of restaurants and upscale hotels. While working in Washington D.C., he is "discovered" by a high up at the White House and offered a job.
In his 30-plus years on Pennsylvania Avenue, Gaines works for every president from Eisenhower to Reagan and is truly a witness to backstage history. He consoles a widowed Jackie Kennedy and is

one of the few people to make it out of the Watergate Scandal unshackled.
The movie focuses on how each of these presidents deal with the pressing question of Civil Rights. Gaines's son is involved in the civil rights movement to the extent of being one of Martin Luther King, Jr.'s posse.
The portrayals of the Civil Rights Movement and the people who fought for equality are what the movie does best. It shows each presidents' qualms and reservations through the uncertain years of the movement and the effect their decisions have on the staff at their own house as well as the rest of the nation.
If the movie has a drawback, it's that there's simply too much time to cover. More than 20 years are skipped in the beginning and near the end. At the end of "Time Lapse One," Gaines has already moved from his home in the south up to D.C. and we aren't given much insight into how he got there.
In the grand scheme of things, this is only a tiny wrinkle. The Butler is engaging and
inspirational with a series of star-studded cameos to complete the trifecta. Lee Daniels' "The Butler" gets two (white-gloved) thumbs up.

Madden 25 expands features for next-generation gaming
TOM DEHART
tdehart@kansan.com
Madden 25 brings new features to gamers for the 25th anniversary edition, which comes out Aug. 27. Increased control over skill players highlight the newest features as the game shifts to next-generation consoles.
The first installment of Madden NFL was released for desktop computers in 1988 with the game title "John Madden NFL". The name of the franchise was not changed to "Madden NFL" until 1993, after EA Sports Development Company received the rights to use NFL athletes within its game.
Madden NFL has evolved significantly since the first edition of the game for PC. The game has moved all the way through Nintendo and Sega consoles, and within the past fifteen years, the game has migrated more toward Xbox and Playstation consoles. On Tuesday, "Madden
25" will be released on both Playstation 3 and Xbox 360 to celebrate 25 years of the football game's franchise.
this year, with the release of "Madden 25," the game will continue to be geared toward the next-generation consoles Playstation 4 and Xbox One with a separate release date in November when the next-generation consoles become available.
According to Game Informer magazine, the game will contain some favorite modes from last year, including Coach Mode and Owner Mode, a mode where a player can control ticket and concession prices, upgrade a team's stadium or relocate to a different city and change the team's name. These modes may be entertaining to some, and relatively boring to others; however these can all be connected to create an immersive NFL franchise. The option to create a player, or control only one player through the course
of a season is also there to be taken advantage of if a player desires to do so.
Along with the improvements made to the game modes that are available to play, the game plays itself has improved since last year's game.
According to IGN.com, the control over the offensive running game is one of the biggest improvements to the game. With a new feature known as the Precision Modifier, running backs, wide receivers and tight ends are now easier to handle, and the feature gives players more control over stiff arms, jukes, spins and truck moves, and provides potential combinations for a more realistic feel.
The Xbox 360 and Playstation 3 version of the game will feature former Detroit Lions running back Barry Sanders on the cover, and the next-generation versions will feature the Vikings running back Adrian Peterson.

Character-driven TV trumps the movies
ASSOCIATED PRESS
LONDON — Oscar-winning actor Kevin Spacey says television has overtaken cinema as the home of quality character-driven drama, but the industry risks failure if it doesn't recognize that viewers want control over what they watch, and when.
Spacey told the Edinburgh International Television Festival on Thursday that the success of his political thriller "House of Cards" — released in a single burst of 13 episodes on video streaming service Netflix earlier this year — showed that viewers "want freedom."
"If they want to binge — as they've been doing on 'House Of Cards' — then we should let them binge," he said.
Spacey is the first actor invited to deliver the festival's keynote speech — an invitation he attributed to the success of "House of Cards"

from the movies in terms of sophisticated storytelling, but argued that that this "golden age" was at risk if the industry did not respond to the ways new technology, the Internet and social media had changed viewing patterns.
"We no longer live in a world of appointment viewing," he said. "So the water cooler has gone virtual, because the discussion is now online.
"Studios and networks who ignore either shift — whether the increasing sophistication of storytelling, or the constantly shifting sands of technological advancement — will be left behind," he added.
Spacey said the critical and commercial success of "House of Cards" "demonstrated that we have learned the lesson that the music industry didn't learn — give people what they want, when they want it, in the form they want it in, at a reasonable price, and they'll more likely pay for it rather than steal it."
In another event at the festival Friday, Spacey said that movie producers could adopt asimilar approach to help beat piracy, releasing films simultaneously online, in cinemas and on DVD.

Following the ten-year anniversary of the infamous Britney and Madonna smooc, MTV's Video Music Awards maintained a high shock factor level with endless entertainment. With a star studded set list of artists such as Drake, Justin Timberlake, Miley Cyrus, Bruno Mars and Macklemore & Ryan Lewis, the 2013 VMAs were the buzz of social media last night
Starting off the VMA pre-show, Miley Cyrus continued to channel her punk style with a Dolce & Gabbana black bejeweled crop top and matching pants. With her bleach blonde pixie cut twisted into two Zenon-esque topknots, it is safe to say that her innocent Hannah Montana days are in the past. She has quickly become a style icon following often risqué and unique fashion choices.
Ariana Grande maintained her cute, doll-like persona throughout both the red carpet walk as well as her pre-show performance. Starting off in a classic Kenley Collins floral frock with white pumps and later switching to a sequined lavender mini dress, Grande kept it simple, fun, and ageappropriate.
In a beige, floor-length spiked gown with a scandalous high-high slit, Ellie Goulding balanced edge and beauty. Rapper 2 Chainz also made a statement dressed from head to toe in Versace patterned pants, jacket, and hat.
terrified pailin, jacket Lady Gaga continued her legacy of outrageous performances. Switching between two six outs throughout her opening act, Gaga managed to rock a white smock with a square white hat, asquired black body suit, blue blazer with matching skirt, both white and yellow wigs, face paint, and eventually stripped down to a seashell bikini.
In a night filled with incredible music and fashion, all eyes were on music's biggest stars.

ESPN breaks collaboration with PBS on investigation of NFL
ASSOCIATED PRESS
LOS ANGELES — ESPN ended its collaboration with PBS on an investigation of the NFA and players' head injuries as public TV producers expressed surprise over the abrupt collapse of the 15-month partnership. ESPN said its decision was based on a lack of editorial control over "League of Denial: The NFL's Concussion Crisis," airing in October on PBS "Frontline" public affairs series. At
ESPN's request, its logo was being removed from websites related to the project and from the film itself.
'Because ESPN is neither producing nor exercising editorial control over the "Frontline" documentaries,
there will be no co-branding involving ESPN on the documentaries or their marketing materials," ESPN said in a statement. "The use of ESPN's marks could incorrectly
imply that we have editorial control. It was a mistake on ESPN's part that it didn't reach the conclusion sooner," ESPN spokesman Kushrulewitz said Friday.
The head injury issue has potentially vast implications for the NFL, with more than 4,000 former players suing the league over claims it hid known concussion risks, leading to high rates of dementia, depression and even suicides.
Some believe the players' claims could be worth $1 billion or more
if they move forward in court. The cases involve the deaths of players, medical care of players with disabling dementia, and lifelong medical monitoring for those who are now symptom-free.
The NFL on Friday denied a New York Times report that it had pressured ESPN to drop out of the project with "Frontline." The sport network has a lucrative contract to carry league games on "Monday Night Football."
The Walt Disney Co.-owned ESPN pays the NFL more than $1 billion a year for the broadcast rights, the Times said.
ESPN denied that the NFL had any influence. "The decision to re
move our branding was not a result of concerns about our separate business relationship with the NFL. As we have in the past, including as recently as Sunday, we will continue to cover the concussion story aggressively through our own reporting," the channel said in a release.
In a separate statement, ESPN President John Skipper defended the channel as a leader "in reporting on the concussion issue, dating back to the mid-1990s," and said he wanted to stress its commitment to journalism and support for the work of its reporters.
Raney Aronson, "Frontline" deputy executive producer, said she and
others at "Frontline" were taken aback by ESPN's decision and that they weren't privy to details of why it was made.
"It's anybody's guess right now about what actually happened," said Aronson. In an online statement, she and "Frontline" executive producer David Fanning said they regretted ESPN's exit after a productive editorial partnership with ESPN's investigative program "Outside the Lines." The Sunday report cited Friday by ESPN as an example of its continuing reporting on concussions was part of its partnership with "Frontline," which Aronson noted was credited on the program.
ESPN executives were long aware of the "Frontline" approach to "League of Denial," Aronson said, with the PBS series controlling what it aired or posted online and ESPN doing the same for its programs or postings. "Frontline" had been working closely with ESPN's senior vice president and news director Vince Doria and senior producer Dwayne Bray, with no indication of discord until last Friday, she said.
The two-part "League of Denial," airing Oct. 8 and 15, draws on reporting by ESPN's Steve Fainaru and Mark Fainaru Wada.

COMMENTARY Quarterback recruits Kansas
By Blake Schuster bschuster@kansan.com
T J. Millweard headed west hoping to find a future in the California hills. The
freshman quarterback from the outskirts of Fort Worth, Texas was promised a chance to become the next man up for UCLA and jumped at it.
It only took one redshirt year before he packed up his car and drove back east. While he was expecting to catch on at a Texas school there was just one stop his mother encouraged him to make before returning to the land of Whataburger and Tex-Mex
Millward pulled over in Lawrence. This wasn't a full-scale recruitment. No, this is the reputation of the jayhawks under coach Charlie Weis. Kansas is the land of opportunity and second-chances.
"His high school coach reached out to one of our staff members saying that he was being released, would we have any interest?" Weis said. "To which I said, Of course we have interest."
Weis and Millweard had one day to pitch each other. It was all they needed.
"He called us the next morning." Weis said. Just like that, Kansas landed its likely successor to Jake Heaps.
This doesn't mean Kansas can now recruit with the big boys in college football. This is just a moment where the coaches can take a second to smile before getting back to work.
OK, it wasn't that simple. And it wasn't even Charlie Weis who sold Millweard on Kansas. The inception came from Millweard's mother, the person who asked him to check out the University in the first place, the one who graduated as a Jayhawk long before her son picked up a football.
"It's nice when you get a top line player," Weis said, "that wants you even more than you wanted him."
Not that there was much selling involved, Millweard lived in Kansas until he was eight.
— Edited by Dylan Lysen
That should not overshadow a simple fact: A top-100 player from the class of 2013 who passed for more than 2,000 yards and 20 touchdowns during his senior season at All Saint's High School in Fort Worth, Texas, asked to play for Kansas.
Weis was joking, yet he should be impressed with himself. Perhaps this was something he envisioned happening in five years when the team likely averages more than two wins per season — but now? It doesn't seem too realistic that a four-star quarterback asks to play for the Jayhawks. Except that's exactly what happened.
Yes, some of this has to do with the "pile of crap" that graced the gridiron last year. Just think about what has come from that.
Millweard saw the slew of transfers find themselves in Kansas jerseys and went to see why. If it wasn't already known, Weis eagerly invites in the homeless. In just his second year he has given the program a new identity: You can make it here.
"I didn't have to recruit him," Weis said of his new quarterback. "That's what impresses me."

Junior running back James Sims rushes to the end zone to score the Jayhawks' second touchdown of the fourth quarter against Oklahoma State University at Memorial Stadium in 2012. The touchdown was not enough to bring the Jayhawks a victory in their 20-14 loss against the Cowboys.
CALLING ALL CAPTAINS
Sims, Heaps, Stowers and Heeney elected team leaders
CONNOR OBERKROM
coberkrom@kansan.com
Last season the Kansas Jayhawks were deprived in a lot of areas, but the main shortcoming for the team isn't told by its stats.
it's shown by the demeanor of the men behind the numbers.
Coach Charlie Weis decided to integrate a four-captain system that he

After letting the team vote on who would fill those roles, Ben Heeney, Keon Stowers, James
envisioned would fix that.
Sims and Jake Heaps were elected. Weis said Dayne Crist, who was voted a captain last year, put forth his best effort, but it wasn't
good enough. The situation was completely foreign to Crist, which didn't contribute to a positive locker room.
"Lookit: I Love Dayne Crist," Weis said. "But for him to be a runaway leader as a captain of
your team when he's been here for three days... that says a lot about his character, but it also says you have a team void of leaders."
PETER R. MCKENZIE
This year the talent has certainly improved, along with the leadership.
All four captains are cognizant of their roles and all of them have nothing in common that is

tangible to everyone surround
ing them.
"The biggest thing is we're just about the team," quarterback Jake Heaps said. "This is a team effort, we're not just a bunch of individuals up here."
Heaps hasn't been here as long
as the other guys, and wasn't even on the field last season. Regardless, he feels his role is just as big, if not bigger than his
"It really does mean a lot to me," Heaps said. "Probably more than anybody would ever know."
PETER SCHMITZ
After the last game of the season versus West Virginia, Heaps sum-
co captains, and welcomes players with open arms to absorb some of the responsibility.
Heaps
moned some players including Sims and Heeney, to discuss what their roles on the team would be for the following season. As Heeney admits, it sometimes isn't about a person's innate ability to be a leader, but doing what's
necessary for the team.
"As Jake said, it's uncomfortable being a leader," Heenev said. "Sometimes when you need to say
something, I'll take it upon myself to say those things instead of just sitting back and watching"
Stowers
Heeney acknowledged that even though last year's team was senior-laden, they just didn't have a rampant amount of leadership in dire situations.
James Sims, who has always been seen as a competent runner, noticed his transformation of becoming a leader finally come to fruition this year.
"Just looking back as a freshmen," Sims said. "Not really wanting to talk to the media, not really having the chance to talk to the media. It was a big change and a different experience for me"
Leadership at times is defined in vague terms and is used loosely. For Kansas, it's showed through the interviews and the praises that the coaches have sung. It's something that Heaps has always taken pride in and has rubbed off on the others as he looks to transcend this team.

STELLA LIANG
Forward Caroline Kastor keeps her eye on the ball and away from her UNLV opponents Aug. 26, 2012, at the Jayhawk Soccer Complex. The Jayhawks won 3-0.
sliang@kansan.com
Standing in the opponent's box in front of the goal, junior midfielder Jamie Fletcher found herself open. Senior forward Caroline Kastor, who was surrounded by about five Pacific Tiger defenders, passed the ball to Fletcher who kicked the ball just out of the reach of Pacific senior goalkeeper Tashia Long, giving the Jayhawk soccer team its first goal of the season.
The Kansas soccer team was the aggressor against the visiting Tigers. Following Friday's loss against Arkansas where the opponents scored early, the Jayhawks took the early lead in this game. They kept that momentum up throughout the match, getting a victory against Pacific 3 to Fletcher describes the team's overall performance as much better than Friday's.
TARA BRYANT/KANSAN
"We actually started passing really well and we meshed better because we were kind of not on the same page." Fletcher said. "Today I felt like we put everything together."
The team responded to Friday's loss by holding team meetings, discussing what could be improved and watching the game
tape multiple times to prepare for Sunday's matchup against Pacific. The Jayhawks' second goal against Pacific came in the early part of the second half when junior defender Caroline Van Slambrouck took a pass from sophomore forward Courtney Dickerson. The goal was also assisted by junior defender Haley Yearout. The victory was punctuated by Kastor's goal in the 89 difficult, diving save at the end of the first half.
"I thought the big difference today was obviously the offense, but the big key for us today was we competed a lot more consistently" coach Mark Francis said. "When we had the ball I thought some of the stuff we did was way better than we did on Friday."
The Jayhawks scored three goals, but had many more chances to increase that total. That effort was stifled by the 10 offsides calls on the Jayhawks, while the Pacific Tigers never committed offsides.
One of those opportunities came in the first half, just minutes after Fletcher's initial goal. Sophomore forward Ashley Williams ran up the middle and had a good angle on the goal, but was stopped short by an offsides call.
Another factor to the win was the performance of the bench. In the first half, sophomore midfielder Liana Salazar came in and had two shots on goal in the first half and sparked run outs for her teammates.
"The forwards got called offsides a little bit too many times, but one of the things we have been getting on them about is being a little bit higher on their defensive lines as opposed to dropping too deep," Francis said. "We want them to be in a more dangerous position."
Francis said he told the players that they couldn't accomplish what they wanted to this year
Francis said the team lost four or five great opportunities to score because of being offsides.
without everyone pitching in, and the bench players came in and maintained the intensity.The Jayhawks are now 1-1 to start the season. Next Friday they will travel to Missouri State before returning home to host Purdue Sunday.

THE MORNING BREW Patience key for Chiefs fans
As I climbed up the 14,000-foot Culebra Peak in remote southern Colorado this past weekend, I had the realest of realizations: this is hard as hell. Sure, I'd guess the majority of the student body could do it, just like my 10-year-old cousin cruised to the summit, but I was gassed. zmy legs felt like Jell-O, and my mind wandered.
By Jackson Long
jlong@kansan.com
And where does my mind always tend to wander? Sports. Expectations were high last go around for the Kansas City Chiefs. And you're entitled to your lofty opinion this year. The Chiefs had six pro-bowlers and fixed their most glaring needs at head coach and quarterback in the off-season. But hold your horses on that bold prediction of yours.
The Chiefs are still a mountain away.
Remember the team was a dreadful 2-14 last year. Remember that the Chiefs only played seven games within 14 points of their opponent. Remember the incredible trio of the Bills, Bengals and Brownse beat the Chiefs by a combined 63 points.
So, are the changes and returning cast
enough for a playoff push? That's like thinking your dog will learn how to open your fridge and bring you a cold one with zero training. I mean, both have happened, but you'd need to check YouTube for the canine bartender and a little history for the other.
In the past decade, at least one team has gone from worst to first in its division each year. The Chiefs did it in 2003 and 2010, by the way, so it's possible. But I'd also take a wild guess that Peyton Manning and the NFL's best receiving core weren't in any of those divisions.
Denver Broncos, Colorado, Mountains
You get it?
As spectacularly bad as the Chiefs were in 2012, they would need almost a complete 180 turn in 2013 for any playoff chance. Not like the Royals' long shot, pray for another 19-4 stretch, hope. I'm talking reality, you guys.
And that reality is that the Chiefs will be like drinking too much at the Hawk: both very good and very bad. One Sunday, we will be trying to find playoff tickets on StubHub and the next looking forward to alley-oops from Naadir Tharpe to Andrew Wiggins. The offense will sputter at times and Jamaal Charles will run like Forrest Gump at other times.
Patience, young grasshoppers: the time for Kansas City sports is almost here. Sporting KC has already arrived. The Royals showed they are a piece or two away from actually making September baseball interesting. The Chiefs are moving in the right direction with necessary changes and additions.
KU
similar season to the Royals.
Lots of ups, lots of down
Expect the Chiefs to have an earily
hopefully fewer injuries. Finish around
the .500 mark, no playoffs and genuine optimism for the next season.
I'm aware the most Kansas City thing to do is to chant "one more year." The length of time of waiting for a truly good Chiefs team - 2010 doesn't count - is somehow even longer than Brady Morningstar's career on the basketball team. Don't get me wrong; I'm more excited for football season than sorority girls were to get back to the 3 B's. I just urge you to curb your excitement a little bit.
Oh yeah, I made it to the top of Mount Culebra. It just took a little patience.

The Saints couldn't get much going on offense in their first two drives. Willie Jefferson got his hands on Brees in the end zone on the third play of their first drive. But before he could bring him down, the quarterback got off a pass that fell incomplete.

McCown's first drive ended with a 51-yard field goal by Garrett Hartley that cut Houston's lead to 13-10. Stills grabbed a 40-yard pass over Kareem Jackson on third-and-6. Stills finished the drive four plays later when he beat Johnathan Joseph to get wide open on the end zone for a 14-yard
touchdown reception to put New Orleans up 17-13.
Harris was called for his second costly penalty of the game on a 40-yard pass interference call on the first play of the second half. New Orleans took advantage of the penalty when McCown found Tanner for an 8-yard touchdown strike to make it 24-16.
T. J. Yates threw an 11-yard touchdown pass to Alec Lemon to get Houston to 24-23 late in the third quarter. Tanner's second touch-down grab pushed the Saints' lead to 31-23 in the fourth.

Scott wins Barclays after Kansas Alum falters late
Titleist
Adam Scott, or Austrana, tees off on the fifth hole during the final round of The Barclays golf tournament yesterday in Jersey City, N.J.
ASSOCIATED PRESS
ASSOCIATED PRESS
JERSEY CITY, N.J. — Masters champion Adam Scott won The Barclays on Sunday after every-one around him did their best to lose it. Scott played bogey-free at Liberty National, making only two birds on the back nine for a 5-under 66 that put him in the mix of a crowded leaderboard at the top. Turns out he was the only one who staved there.
"I can't believe it, to be honest," Scott said after winning the FedEx Cup playoffs opener. "I just played a good round today and I came in and really didn't think it had a chance. But obviously, things went my way a lot out there."
"I found a way to hang in there and grind it out and gave myself a chance on the back nine on Sunday, which is everything you can ask for." Woodland said.
The last challenge came from Gary Woodland, who hit driver on the 13th that ran into the water, leading to bogey. Woodland had birdie chances from inside 10 feet on the final three holes, and missed them all. He closed with a 73.
Tiger Woods suffered a back spasm on the par-5 13th hole and hooked a fairway metal so far left that it landed in a swamp on the other side of the 15th fairway, leading to bogey. He dropped another shot on the 15th, and then gamely birdied the 16th and 17th holes to pull within one shot of Scott. Woods' putt from the back of the 18th green was one turn short of falling to force a playoff.
justin Rose had a 25-foot birdie putt for the lead, ran it 5 feet by the cup and three-putted for a bogey for a 68. Kevin Chappell had a two-shot lead through 10 holes, only to play the next seven holes in 7 over par to close with a 76.
Scott finished at 11- under 273 and moved to a career-best No. 2 in the world. It was the second time Woods has missed a playoff by one shot at Liberty National.
Woods, Woodland and Rose shared second place with Graham DeLaet of Canada, whose 65 matched the low score of the final round. DeLaet will move up to No.9 in the Presidents Cup standings, and with one week before qualifying ends, is in good shape to make the International team.
Woods had all four rounds in the 60s for the first time in a year on the PGA Tour, though it wasn't enough. He battled stiffness in his lower back all week, which he attributed to a soft bed in his hotel room — the second straight
year he has had back issues from a
mattress at this event.
In a brief interview with CBS Sports, he said it was "bypothetical" when asked if he would commit in the Deutsche Bank
Championship, the next playoff event that starts Friday on the TPC Boston. The tournament gives its charity money to Woods' foundation. Woods already missed the AT&T National this year, which also benefits his foundation

"I just got off and I'm not feeling my best right now," he said. Rose was feeling that great.

Injured Cabrera stays hot as Tigers sweep the Mets

ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK — Imagine what Miguel Cabrera might be doing if he were completely healthy. The reigning American League MVP hit a mammoth homer, Rick Porcello enjoyed a happy homecoming and the Detroit Tigers polished off a three-game sweep of the New York Metts with an 11-3 victory Sunday. Cabrera's two-run drive was his 42nd long ball of the season and 10th in 19 games. He went 3 for 4
in a walk, rushing his batting average to a major-league best 360, and finished the series 7 for 13 with two homers and five RBIs.
“It’s a lot of fun,
“Porcelio said. “You've got to remind yourself not to take what he'_ done for granted, because he's just that special of a player and he makes it look so easy day in and day out. But, he's unbelievable. He's the best hitter on the planet, hands down." Hobbled by nagging injuries to his hip, side and knees, Cabrera jogged slowly down the line all weekend. When he tried to dive for a ball at third base Sunday, it certainly appeared to hurt. That hardly slowed him at the plate, though. "He's the best I've seen, by far," teammate Andy Dirks said. "The things that he can do, you just sit back and say, 'Wow.'" Dirks put Detroit ahead with a two-run homer, and the AL Central leaders improved to 12-5 in interleague play. They have won 34 of 49 overall, the best mark in the American League since July 2. Porcello (10-7) pitched seven innings of four-hit ball before the Tigers broke it open with a seven-run ninth. Dirks drew a bases-loaded walk during the outburst, which included RBI singles by Victor Martinez and Ramon Santiago
Travis d'Arnaud hit his first major league homer for the Mets, who have scored five runs during a fourgame slide. They were outhit 33-7 in the final two games of the series

in the inimitable game.
"The Tigers aren't in the position they're in without having an outstanding offense. They pitched us tough. We didn't get a lot of guys on." New York manager Terry Collins said. "Right now we are not swinging the bats very well. The Tigers played great and we didnt."
TERRY COLLINS New York Mets
with a 2.27 ERA since May 30,
the fourth-best mark in the majors during that span.
The 24-year-old Porcello, who grew up a Mets fan nearby in New Jersey,
left 17 tickets for family and friends. He didn't disappoint them, either, bouncing back from a loss to Minnesota and moving to 6-1 in his past nine outings.
"It was definitely a little special feeling." Porcellio said. "I'm glad we got a win for them."
The right-hander was hit hard in his only other start against the Mets on June 28, 2011, in Detroit. He pitched at Yankee Stadium a little more than two weeks ago, taking a no-decision in Detroit's 4-3 defeat. With the victory by Porcellio, all five members of the Tigers' rotation have reached double digits in wins.
The Tigers were trailing by one when Martinez singled off Gee to start the sixth. Dirks, who had three of Detroit's 13 hits Saturday off All-Star ace Matt Harvey, drove an 0-1 slider to right-center for his eighth home run.
"I thought we probably strung as good at bats together this series as we have all year throughout the lineup," manager Jim Leyland said.
"This sounds crazy, but I think the matchup yesterday really got the hitters pumped up because they
knew it could be a real tough day." Gee lasted six innings for the 11th straight start, the longest streak of his career, and 15th time in 16 outings. But he matched a season high by giving up 10 hits — five in the sixth. Austin Jackson opened the game with a soft single and Cabrera launched a 2-0 pitch toward left field, where it cleared a railing in the second deck and sailed
through a triangular opening beneath the restaurant windows.
"When the man gets hot, he's hot," Martinez said. The drive induced a collective gasp from the crowd of 32,084 on
Tom Seaver bobblehead day and give Gabrae a major league-high 128 RBIs. Trying to become the first player to win consecutive Triple Crowns, he is four homers behind Baltimore golfer Chris Davis.

Offensive lineman Slater on leave, walk-on rises

Walk-ons hardly ever push up the ranks and become starters, but when they do, a good story comes along the wayside.
Enter Matthew Wyman, a kicker from Bloomfield Hills, Mich.
It certainly has proved worthy for Wyman who is at the top of the depth chart ahead of favorite Michael Mesh, a transfer from Hutchinson Community College.

While Wyman looks to secure the field-goal responsibilities, junior college transfer Trevor Pardula looks to be tabbed for kickoff duties and possibly punts.

On Friday., Farmers' Almanac managing editor Sandy Duncan, left, and editor Peter Geiger, pose in Lewiston, Maine. The 197-year old almanac is predicting a colder-than normal winter for most of the United States, with a winter storm hitting around the time of the Super Bowl on Feb. 2, 2014, in New Jersey.
'Farmers' Almanac' predicts low temperatures for Super Bowl
ASSOCIATED PRESS
LEWISTON, Maine — "The Farmers' Almanac" is using words like "pipering cold", "bitterly cold" and "biting cold" to describe the upcoming season. And if its predictions are right, the first outdoor Super Bowl in years will be a messy "Storm Bowl".
The 197-year-old publication that hits newsstands Monday predicts a winter storm will hit the Northeast around the time the Super Bowl is played at MetLife Stadium in the Meadowlands in New Jersey. It also predicts a colder-than-normal winter for two-thirds of the country and heavy snowfall in the Midwest, Great Lakes and New England.
"We're using a very strong four-letter word to describe this winter, which is C-O-L-D. It's going to be very cold," said Sandi Duncan, managing editor. Based on planetary positions, sunspots and lunar cycles, the almanac's secret formula is largely unchanged since founder David Young published the first almanac in 1818.
Modern scientists don't put much stock in sunspots or tidal action, but the almanac says its forecasts used by readers to plan weddings and plant gardens are correct about 80 percent of the time.
Last year, the forecast called for cold weather for the eastern and central U.S. with milder temperatures west of the Great
Lakes. It started just the opposite but ended up that way.

especially if they're lucky enough to get tickets to the Super Bowl on Feb. 2. The first Super Bowl held outdoors in a cold-weather environment could be both cold and super messy, with a big storm due Feb. 1 to 3, the almanac says.
Said Duncan: "It really looks like the Super Bowl may be the Storm Bowl." The Maine-based Farmers' Almanac, not to be confused with the New Hampshire-based Old Farmer's Almanac, which will be published next month, features a mix of

Giants safety Stevie Brown injured in loss to Jets

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J.
— New York Giants free safety Stevie Brown will miss the regular season with a torn anterior cruciate ligament in his left knee that he hurt in Saturday's preseason overtime loss to the Jets. The 27-year-old Brown, who led the Giants with eight interceptions last season, was placed on injured reserve on Sunday. "I feel badly for him," coach Tom Coughlin said in a conference call.
"He played well for us last year and prepared himself well for this season. We're definitely going to miss him. We'll continue, because that's what we do."
"But we expect Antrel to practice this week and get him back on the field." Coughlin said.
For now, it leaves the Giants without the starting safeties from a year ago, with strong safety Antrel Rollestill out with a sprained ankle.

Trainers carry New York Giants safety Stevie Brown (27) off the field after he was injured on a play during the first half of a preseason NFL football game against the New York Jets. on Saturday, in East Rutherford, N.J.
Brown's injury, which came on a non-contact play soon after he intercepted Geno Smith's pass and returned it 22 yards, will move fifth-year veteran Ryan Mundy into a starting role.
Mundy signed with the Giants in the offseason after spending his entire career with the Pittsburgh
Steelers. He started only five games in four years, with one interception.
"He has played well," Coughlin said of Mundy. "He can play both safety positions. He's proven to be physical. We'll see about that."
Tyler Sash, a third-year veteran, has a chance to move up the depth chart with Brown out for the season.
"He's certainly going to get a lot of playing time," Coughlin said of Sash. "It's up to his production, but the opportunity is going to be there. He knows what's in front of him and has the opportunity."
Another safety who might have been in the mix to start is second-year pro Will Hill, who made the team as a free agent

"He's been playing and playing well," Coughlin said of Hill. "He's outstanding in the special teams. But we're not going to have him for four games. We acknowledge what he can brings to the table, but we can't be lured into thinking we're OK because he's not going to be here. That's a shame."

Former standout cornerback
Terrell Thomas, who is making a comeback after two ACL surgeries, is probably not a candidate for playing time at safety. "He played real well last night and I feel real good about him," Coughlin said. "He had a couple of serious injuries. We want him to get close to 100 percent physically as possible." "We know he's a player. He's certainly a talented guy, an outstanding player. We're trying to get him on the field where his confidence is up. We haven't thought about another spot. We just want to get him confident and playing."

Japan wins ninth championship with victory over California
ASSOCIATED PRESS
SOUTH WILLIAMSPORT, Pa. — Ryusei Hirooka lined a decisive two-run double in the bottom of the fifth innning. Shunpei Takagi hit two solo home runs, and Tokyo beat Chula Vista, Calif., 6-4 on Sunday to win the Little League World Series. It was the 14th championship game for Japan, which was making its fourth straight appearance in the title Game, and ninth championship. California, making its 23rd championshipgame appearance, has won seven World Series titles. Giancarlo Cortez had a two-run single and Grant Holman an RBI single for Chula Vista. Trailing 4-3 after Cortez's clutch single in the fourth, Japan tied it on Takaki's second homer and won it when Hirooka lined a 2-2 pitch down the left-field line for a double. California beat Westport, Conn., 12-1 in the U.S. championship game Saturday, while Japan beat Mexico 3-2 for the international title. Japan finished the tournament undefeated but had to rally to beat the Americans, who left 12 runners on base in a game that was there for the taking. Facing one last threat in the sixth, the Japanese players erupted in glee, tossing manager Masumi Omae in the air near the mound after his slick fielders had turned a game-ending double play. Unbeaten, too, entering the game, Chula Vista struck early to send a message that it would be a tense affair. Keyed by the shaggy-haired duo of Micah Pietila-Wiggs and Jake Espinoza at the top of the order, California scored twice in the top of the first against Japan starter Kazuki Ishida to put the pressure on Pietila-Wiggs was hit by a pitch leading off and Espinoza lined a double down the left-field line. PietilaWiggs came around to score on a passed ball and Holman singled home Espinoza. California received a scare wher Cortez was hit by a pitch in the helmet during the first inning and departed for a pinch-runner after being examined on the field. Ishida went over to shake Cortez's hand and apologize, and Cortez returned
Vista took the field for the first time.
Vista took the field for the first time. Holman, who pitched a no-hitter earlier in the World Series, hadn't pitched since Wednesday and was shaky at the outset, walking two of the first three batters he faced and throwing a wild pitch as Japan quickly mounted a threat of its own and tied the score. Takuma Gomi, whose dramatic solo home run in the top of the sixth had given Japan a 3-2 victory over Mexico in the international championship on Saturday, lined an RBI single. A botched throw in from the outfield on the hit sailed wide of home plate, allowing Takagi, who had walked, to score the second run. California escaped further damage when Kyousuke Kobayashi singled to center and Espinoza threw out Gomi at home. The West champions mounted another threat in the second, loading the bases with two outs. But Holman struck out, waving his bat ever-so-slightly at a pitch that was low and outside and shaking his head indisym at the call. If Japan had a plan, it likely was to make the hard-throwing Holman work, and the tall right-hander did just that. When he struck out Sho Miyao looking to end the second inning, he had thrown 50 pitches. Not a good omen for the West champions with a maximum of 85 allowed and Nick Mora, the hero of Saturday's win over Connecticut with a 10-strikeout, two-hit performance, ineligible to pitch. Ishida wasn't faring any better. After three innings he had thrown 69 pitches, struck out five, walked three, and hit three batters. Japan took a 3-2 lead when Takagi led off the bottom of the third by slamming a home run over the rightfield fence on an 0-1 pitch. A smile on his face, Takagi raised his right arm in triumph as he rounded the bases and was mobbed by his teammates after crossing the plate. Holman avoided further damage by striking out pinchhitter Tatsuki Nagano and getting pinch-hitter Seiya Nishino to ground out to first with two runners on. When he went to the dugout, Holman had only three pitches left to reach the maximum of 85 and

was relieved by Ricky Tibbett. The Japanese pitchers kept the hot-hitting Pietila-Wiggs off-balance at the plate, but after getting fooled by a pitch in the top of the fourth he laced a ground-rule double down the left-field line. Espinoza followed with a bloop single to left and took second on the throw in. Ishida then hit Mora to load the bases, tying the World Series record for most hit batsmen in a game, and Keita Saito came on in relief. Batting for the second straight time with the bases loaded, Holman, who hit a grand slam earlier in the World Series, grounded to third and Japan got the forceout at home for the first out.
A day earlier, Japan twice escaped big jams in the win over Mexico, once with the bases loaded and nobody out. This time they failed as Cortez laced a two-run single to left field for a 4-3 lead. Ricky Tibbett relieved Holman in the fourth and retired the side in order, striking out two, as Chula Vista crept that much closer to the title.
Patrick Archer walked leading off the fifth and Dominic Haley reached on an error by Tsuchida to give California a chance to extend its lead. Wiggs then laced a shoulder-high fastball down the left-field line for a single to load the bases, the ball hit too hard for Archer to score from second. That proved critical when Espinoza lined to left and Archer was out at home on a strong throw by Gomi.
Mora struck out swinging to end the inning, stranding another two runners.
Japan immediately took advantage when Takagi tied the score at 4 with his second home run, a blast to center field. Gomi followed with a single, Kobayashi reached on an infield single, and Hirooka lined a 2-2 pitch down the left-field line for the game-winning hit.
Chula Vista threatened in the top of the sixth, putting two runners on, but Kobayashi got Bateman to hit a soft one-hopper to first Kensuke Tsuchida stepped or the bag for the out and threw to second, where shortstop Sho Mivao tagged out pinch

St. Louis Cardinals shortstop Pete Kozma fails to throw Atlanta Braves' Mike Minor out at first during the seventh inning of a baseball game yesterday.
ST. LOUIS — Mike Minor bounced back from the shortest outing of his career with seven strong innings and Andrelton Simmons homered to lead the Atlanta Braves to a 5-2 win over the St. Louis Cardinals on Sunday. Atlanta, which has the best record in the NL, broke a three-game losing streak and salvaged the final game of the four-game set. St. Louis had a four-game winning streak snapped. Minor (13-5) gave up one run on six hits. He struck out two and walked one. He was pitching on seven days rest after allowing four runs in 12-3 innings against Washington on Aug. 17.

on with two out in the eighth and picked up his 41st save in 44 opportunities. It was his first four-out save of the season. Atlanta jumped on St. Louis starter Lance Lynn (13-8) early
with one run in the first and two in the second. Lynn, who has not won since Aug. 4, gave up four runs on nine hits over seven innings. He struck out five and walked one.

Prosecution lists 107 witnesses in Pistorius trial
ASSOCIATED PRESS
POLICE
Oscar Pistorius, center, arrives outside the magistrates court in Pretoria, South Africa, Monday, Aug. 19. Pistorius was indicted Monday on charges of murder and illegal possession of ammunition.
JOHANNESBURG — Oscar Pistorius' character, his temper and his use of guns are expected to be examined in his murder trial for the killing of girlfriend Reeva Steenkamp, based on the prosecution's list of witnesses.
Members of Oscar Pistorius' family, an ex-girlfriend, some of his friends and neighbors, men connected to firearms clubs, a professional cage fighter, a boxer and a host of police specialists and experts are listed as prosecution witnesses for the double-amputee Olympian's murder trial next year.
The Associated Press takes a closer look at some of the 107 state witnesses after Piortius was indicted on a charge of premeditated murder for the killing of Steenkamp. His trial is set to start on March 3, 2014.
FIRST ON THE SCENE
Pistorius said in an affidavit, his only testimony so far, that Johan Stander was the first person he phoned after he shot Steenkamp in the pre-dawn hours of Feb. 14. He asked Stander to call an ambulance.
Stander, who Pistorius described as an administrator of the gated community where the athlete lived, arrived at the house as Pistorius carried a fatally wounded Steenkamp downstairs, according to Pistorius.
As the first person to talk to and to see Pistorius after the shooting, Stander's observations of the immediate aftermath may help a judge decide whether Pistorius had minutes earlier committed murder, as prosecutors say, or made a deadly mistake — the core of the trial.
NEIGHBORS, GUARDS & 'THE DOCTOR'
There are 18 people, including Stander, on the state witness list connected to the Silver Woods Estate where Pistorius lived. A key part of the prosecutors' case is that they say some of the witnesses, likely neighbors or estate workers, heard a woman scream before the gunshots. The suggestion is not only of a fight between the couple, but also that Pistorius should have known where Steenkamp was by the scream before he shot.
Security guards and an unnamed doctor, who Pistorius said lived at Silver Woods and also arrived at his house soon after he shot Steenkamp, may testify. The prosecution says that Pistorius "walked into security guards" when he went downstairs carrying Steenkamp. The guards are not mentioned by Pistorus.
PISTORIUS' FAMILY & FRIENDS
Pistorius 'uncle Arnold, brother Carl and sister Aimee are all named as prosecution witnesses. It's unclear when or if members of Pistorius' family arrived at his home in the hours following the shooting, but the prosecution said in an initial charge sheet that the runner "said to a friend/sister that he thought it was a burglar," claiming Pistorius talked to people close to him soon after he killed Steenkamp. Other friends of Pistorius are witnesses, including one who also lived at Silver Woods and a car dealer who says he introduced Pistorius and Steenkamp in 2012
TOP COPS & EXPERTS
Nearly 50 police officers and experts could be called by the state at the trial, including 17 forensic, ballistics and crime scene specialists and a criminal psychologist. Also involved in the case are members of South Africa's Directorate for Priorit
Crime Investigation, which deals with national priority crimes and shows how seriously the country's authorities are taking the case against its one-time sporting hero. Hilton Botha, the police's former lead investigator who was dropped from the case and later left the force, will likely reappear as a state witness.
DRUGS & SUBSTANCES
A sports medicine specialist and the head of the South African sports doping laboratory are listed as possible witnesses and may deal with any substances being taken by Pistorius amid initial claims by investigators that they found testosterone in his bedroom. Prosecutors withdrew that claim and Pistorius' representatives identified the substance he was using as a legal herbal remedy called testis composition.
THE EX-GIRLFRIEND
Police haven't yet said what substances they may have found in the Olympian's house or through tests on him.
Ex-girlfriend Samantha Taylor apparently has stories to tell about Pistorius. She was in a car when he fired a gun through the sunroof in anger at being stopped by police at a road checkpoint, according to a South African television channel. Taylor's mother, Trish Taylor, reportedly posted on Facebook soon after the shooting: "I am so glad Sammy is safe and sound and out of the clutches of that man. There were a few occasions when things could have gone wrong with her and his gun during the time they dated."
The comments were later removed and the Taylors have declined to comment. Mother and daughter are both prosecution witnesses. Two other women Pistorius was once involved with also are listed.
CHARACTER WITNESSES
The Taylors, a former professional soccer player, and a boxer could testify to Pistorius' character and whether, as prosecutors
may hint, he was prone to anger and possibly violence and was reckless with guns. The former soccer player, Mark Batchelor, has said that a drunken Pistorius once threatened him. The boxer, Kevin Lerena, is believed to have been with Pistorius at a Johannesburg restaurant weeks before the shooting when the athlete shot a gun accidentally under a table. The naming of two men from firearms clubs Pistorius had connections to shows that prosecutors will examine his gun history. Close friends of Steenkamp and an ex-boyfriend of the model also are named by the state as witnesses.
THE UNKNOWNS
It's not certain what connections a Johannesburg-based cage fighter has to the case. Also intriguing is what testimony may come from Elizabeth de Jager of the South African Weather Service.

Royals rally in eighth inning, ending seven-game losing streak
ASSOCIATED PRESS
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Salvador Perez homered early, then drove in the tiebreaking run in the eighth and the Kansas City Royals ended their seven-game losing streak on Sunday, rebounding for a 6-4 victory after blowing a 4-0 lead against Washington.
With two out and a runner on first and the game tied 4-all in the eighth, Billy Butler hit a hard grounder that first baseman Adam LaRoche knocked down. The ball rolled several feet to his right and when
KC
Stammen was late to cover the bag, the slow-running Butler kept the inning going by chugging to first with an infield single. Stammen then walked Mike Moustakas on fourth pitches and Perez hit a hard grounder to shortstop Ian Desmond. He hobbled momentarily and his throw to third was late, allowing the tiebreaking run to cross the plate on what was first ruled a fielder's choice and then changed to an infield single before David Lough's RBI single made it 6-4.
Kelvin Herrera (5-6) pitched 11-3 innings of relief for only the Royals' third victory in 13 games. Craig

third victory in 15 games. Craig Stammen (7-6) took the loss and was part of a shaky defense that led to the Nationals' first loss in six road outings. Greg Holland pitched the ninth for his 35th save in 37 opportunities, giving up two singles but striking out the side. Stam
Santana had a 4-1 lead and two out in the seventh when Denard Spans's third hit of the day went for his third home run of the year. Ryan Zimmerman followed with a single, bringing a visit to the mound by
Royals pitching coach Dave Eiland. Harper then hit Santana's next pitch over the fence in left-center, bringing Herrera in from the bullpen.
Washington starter Dan Haren entered the game 4-0 in six career starts in Kauffman Stadium and had never allowed more than two earned runs in KC, But that quickly changed.
On Haren's third pitch, Gordon hit the 11th lead home run of his career. After Emilio Bonifacio walked,
Eric Hosmer hit an RBI single. Hosmer was out trying to steal, then Mike Moustakas singled and Perez homered for a 4-0 lead against Haren, who had been 4-2 since coming back from the DL on July 8.
Haren was in danger again in the second and saved only by a stand-out double play started by LaRoche, who dove to his right to spear a line smash off Gordon's bat. From his knees, LaRoche threw to second base to double off Alcides Escobar.
After that, Haren allowed only two singles while going seven innings. He was charged with four runs on eight hits. In the Nationals fourth, Desmond homered for the second
time in two games. The ball bounced off the facade of the Royals hall of fame behind left field and was estimated at 431 feet. Span drilled a ball off Santana's right hip with one out in the third

stayed in to strike out Zimmerman and retire Harper on a shallow fly. Santana was charged with four runs on 11 hits in 6 2-3 innings, with seven strikeouts and no walks.
Chiefs release fan favorite Stanzi, with Bray winning third string
ASSOCIATED PRESS
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — The Kansas City Chiefs parted ways with one of their most polarizing quarterbacks in recent years Sunday when they cut Rick Stani, a former fifth-round draft pick who never saw the field yet some fans seemed to love. Stanzi was among 14 players who were cut ahead of Tuesday's dead-
Stanzi was among 14 players who were cut ahead of Tuesday's deadline to reach the 75-man roster limit.
The Chiefs must reach the 53-man limit for the regular season by Saturday. Stanzi, who was drafted by former general manager Scott Pioli, was beaten out for the No.3 quarterback job by undrafted free-agent Tyler Bray. Stanzi was just 5 of 12 for 42 yards in the preseason, and did not play in the most recent two games. Kansas City wraps up its preseason schedule Thursday night against Green Bay.
Stanzi was joined by wide receiver Terrance Copper and defensive back Neiko Thorpe in players who were part of last year's 2-14 team that were involved in the first round of cuts.
Also cut Sunday were cornerbacks Vince Agnew, Otha Foster III, Ka-
dell Milwaukee, offensive linemen
maal McIlwain; offensive linemen Ryan Durand, A.J. Hawkins and Hutch Eckerson; defensive ends Miguel Chavis and Rob Lohr; back Jordan Roberts; fullback Braden Wilson and wide receiver Tyler Shoemaker
wide receiver Tyler Johnson. "This is always a difficult time of year," new GM John Dorsey said. "We have to make decisions that we feel are in the best interest of our football team and unfortunately this is part of the process. These gentlemen have put in a lot of hard work and effort for our franchise, and we wish them nothing but the best moving forward."
While it was widely expected
the best moving for war.
that Stanzi would be dismissed, the Chiefs' decision to cut loose Copper,
Thorpe and Wilson ahead of the final round was a bit surprising. Copper had eight catches for 79 yards last season, but was a valuable contributor on special teams.
Thorpe was active for nine games after making the team as an undrafted free agent out of Auburn. Wilson was the Chiefs' sixth round draft pick just this year.
"We told the guys at the beginning of the year to make it as hard as you can on John and me when it comes down to making these decisions," Reid said. "These guys have busted their tails, and it's their profession. We wish them all the best of luck when they leave here that they have an opportunity to go play somewhere else. You never know in this business, you could be coming right back, you never know how it works. It's a crazy thing."

Social media triathlon connects students to campus

As students return to campus, the University challenges students to explore KU. Take a stroll by Potter Lake, discover the great view from the Campanile, feel the energy that radiates from Allen Fieldhouse and don't forget to document it.
The University wants you to share your explorations with your friends, followers and even strangers in its social media triathlon #exploreKU.
Associate Director of Interactive Media Justin Henning came up with the idea for the social media triathlon and is managing the event.
"The idea came from realizing a lot of students are interacting with the University in social settings," Henning said. "We wanted to help students connect with their campus."
For the triathlon, which kicked off Aug. 23, students are asked to submit posts in three legs; write a haiku with the hashtag #hawKU on Twitter, post a photo of campus on Instagram and create a video about KU on Vine.
Henning said the contest has changed from last year to include Vine instead of FourSquare.

He also hopes that students will continue to use the hashtag after the contest closes on Sept. 7 to create a social community for students.
But the triathlon doesn't just benefit the University, it also benefits students who have the opportunity to win prizes with each leg of the contest.
Alicia Croci, a junior from Otowa, said she found the contest on Twitter and hopes to win the KU Athletics sports package since she hasn't bought her all sports box yet.

Daniels said he liked that the University is reaching out through social media. "I don't think there's anybody at KU who doesn't have some form of social media," Daniels said. "It's a cool way to connect students." Students can enter the triathlon by using the hashtag "exploreKU" and win prizes if submitted by Sept. 7. For contact rules and the full list of

Immunizations worth trip to Watkins
LIENNIFER SALVA
isalva@kansan.com
Even if you have a fear of needles, the protection that immunizations provide could be worth the prick.
The University requires that al. students receive immunizations or screenings for MMR (measles, mumps and rubella), and that international students are tested for tuberculosis before they can enroll.
The KU Immunization Compliance Policy states that any student born on or after January 1, 1957, must show proof of two separate vaccinations for MMR, unless they are able to provide proof of history of the diseases.
Measles, mumps and rubella are nearly eradicated in the United States, yet highly contagious, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Most cases are brought to the states by a visitor or U.S. citizen traveling abroad.
According to Melody Volek, a registered nurse at Watkins Memorial Health Center, along with the disease history they also must provide a positive titer, or blood test, that checks antibody levels to MMR.
The Immunization Policy also requires that all students living in University-owned group housing receive the meningitis vaccine, or sign a waiver indicating that they refuse.
There are five ways to contract meningitis, with bacterial and viral meningitis being the most common and typically the most serious cases, according to the CDC. These two types of the disease are also contagious.
The CDC lists respiratory and throat secretions, such as kissing and sharing cups, as the primary ways the diseases are spread. Viral meningitis, however, is spread through fecal contamination such as changing a diaper or not properly washing
symptoms such as fever, inability or difficulty touching the chin to the chest, seizures and vomiting, according to the Meningitis Research Foundation. If not promptly treated, long-term complications could occur such as weakening of the immune system, lack of oxygen to fingers, toes and limbs which could end in amputation and even death.
hands after visiting the restroom. Volek said student housing is an easy way to spread meningitis. "People living in dorms are sharing close quarters, drinking out of each other's cups, eating off of each other's plates and having sex," Volek said. Bacterial meningitis can cause
MELODY VOLEK Nurse
"Getting vaccinated means not only protecting yourself, but protecting those around you."
Other ways to contract meningitis include inhaling fungal spores or parasites that contaminate food, water or soil. The disease can also be non-infectious—or not spread through personal contact—which is caused by cancers.
lupus, brain injury or surgery, according to the CDC. The majority of students coming to the University will already have MMR and meningitis vaccinations. Volek said, but it is important to think about additional vaccinations. She recommends getting a tetanus
shot (or tetanus booster every 10 years if you have previously received the vaccination), chickenpox vaccine for anyone who has not had the disease, and an annual flu shot.
Volek also encourages students to consider the human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine. This virus lives in the mucous membranes and is spread through kissing or sexual contact. HPV is a major cause of cervical cancer. Until recently, the vaccine was only targeted toward women from nine to 23 years old. Volek said even males should consider getting the vaccine to prevent genital warts and transmitting the virus to others.
"Getting vaccinated means not only protecting yourself, but protecting those around you." Volek sa'
— Edited by Tara Bryant
Students planning on traveling abroad can make an appointment at the center to talk to a doctor about where they are traveling and which vaccinations they will need.
To schedule an appointment, contact the Watkins Memorial Health Center at 785-864-9500.

In this Friday, Aug. 9 photo, a tour group waits for an interactive experience to begin before entering the vault chamber containing the "secret recipe" for Coca-Cola at the World of Coca-Cola museum, in Atlanta.
Popular snacks change formulas
ASSOCIATED PRESS
ATLANTA — Coca-Cola keeps the recipe for its 127-year-old soda inside an imposing steel vault that's bathed in red security lights. Several cameras monitor the area to make sure the fizzy formula stays a secret.
But in one of the many signs that the surveillance is as much about theater as reality, the images that pop up on video screens are of smiling tourists waving at themselves
"It's a little bit for show," concedes a guard at the World of Coca-Cola museum in downtown Atlanta, where the vault is revealed at the end of an exhibit in a puff of smoke.
The ability to push a quaint narrative about a product's origins and fuel a sense of nostalgia can help drive billions of dollars in sales. That's invaluable at a time when food makers face greater competition from smaller players and cheaper supermarket store brands that appeal to cash-strapped Americans. It's why companies such as Coca-Cola and Twinkies owner Hostess play up the notion that their recipes are sacred, unchanging documents that need to be closely guarded. As it turns out, some recipes have changed over time, while others may not have. Either way, they all stick to the same script that their formulas have remained the same.
ly headed research & development at Kraft Foods, said companies often recalibrate ingredients for various reasons, including new regulations, fluctuations in commodity costs and other issues that impact mass food production.
This summer, the Twinkies cream-filled cakes many Americans grew up snacking on made a comeback after being off shelves for about nine months following the bankruptcy of Hostess Brands. At the time, the new owners promised the spongy yellow cakes would taste just like people remember.
"It's almost this mythological thing, the secret formula," said the president of the Institute of Food Technologists, which studies the science of food. "I would be amazed if formulas (for big brands) haven't changed."
A representative for Hostess, Hannah Arnold, said in an email that Twinkies today are "remarkably close to the original recipe", noting that the first three ingredients are still enriched flour, water and sugar. Yet a box of Twinkies now lists more than 25 ingredients and has a shelf-life of 45 days, almost three weeks longer than the 26 days from just a year ago. That suggests the ingredients have been tinkered with, to say the least, since they were created in 1930.

New campus dining options to open
Among the whirlwind of new classes, teachers and syllabi, University students will experience new food options to enjoy and look forward to this coming year.
Panda Express, the restaurant chain known for such favorites as orange chicken, Beijing beef and kung pao chicken, is coming to campus. The popular fast-food Asian restaurant is expected to arrive in January 2014, on the third floor of KU Memorials Union, near The Market.
"I think it will be widely successful," said David Mucci, Director of KU Memorial Unions. "I think it will be a great addition to campus and its different offerings." The Market itself experienced some remodeling during the summer. Its look and food offerings have been changed extensively and include Serrano's Latin Cuisine, World Kitchen International Comfort Foods
Elsewhere on campus, another popular chain, Café Spice opened earlier this week. It is one of the many food offerings in The Underground and has already proved popular. "We were actually really sur-

"We were actually really surprised," said Brandon Heidel, General Manager of Café Spice.
Along with the new food offerings in The Union and The Underground, Mrs. E's, the Daisy Hill staple, also saw some changes. A complete renovation happened over the summer, which started from the last meal of the spring semester and ended before the dinner meal last Friday. New food concepts were added, such as KYou Zone, a food op-

nion that caters to students with special diets, Smokey's, which offers smoked meats and housemade barbecue sauce, and Al Dente, serving a variety of pasta and grain-focused dishes. These changes, along with the arrival of Panda Express, Café Spice and improvements to The Market, were made based on results from a survey KU Memorial Unions distributed last spring. The survey asked students about their dining preferences and what they would like to have available on campus. Claudia Larkin, Director of Marketing for KU Memorial Unions, said she thinks the changes will be successful, especially the arrival of Panda Express and Café Spice. "I think they will be received really well, particularly since what drove the decision to put those two particular restaurants in was student input telling us about the kinds of food they want to see on campus." Larkin said.

State department discusses action in Syria
Secretary of State John Kerry speaks at the State Department in Washington on Monday about the situation in Syria. Kerry said chemical weapons were used in Syria, and accused Assad of destroying evidence.
UNITED STATES OF AMERICA
ASSOCIATED PRESS
ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — Secretary of State John Kerry on Monday outlined the clearest justification yet for U.S. military action in Syria, saying there was "undeniable" evidence of a large-scale chemical weapons attack, with intelligence strongly signaling that Bashar Assad's regime was responsible.
Assad's regime was responsible. Kerry, speaking to reporters at the State Department, said last week's attack "should shock the conscience" of the world.
"The indiscriminate slaughter of civilians, the killing of women and children and innocent bystanders by chemical weapons is a moral obscenity. By any standard, it is inexcusable and — despite the excuses and equivocations that some have manufactured — it is undeniable," said Kerry, the highest-ranking U.S. official to confirm the attack in the Damascus suburbs that activists say killed hundreds of people.
cry, he added. Officials said President Barack Obama has not decided how to respond to the use of deadly gases, a move the White House said last year would cross a "red line." But the U.S., along with allies in Europe, appeared to be
"This international norm cannot be violated without consequences." he added.
"This is about the violation of an international norm against the use of chemical weapons and how we should respond to that."
laying the groundwork for the most aggressive response since Syria's civil war began more than two years ago.
Two administration officials said the U.S. was expected to make public a more formal determination of chemical weapons use on Tuesday, with an announcement of Obama's response likely to follow quickly. The officials insisted on anonymity because they were not authorized to publicly discuss the internal deliberations.
that would punish Assad for deploying deadly gases, not sweeping measures aimed at ousting the Syrian leader or strengthening rebel forces. The focus of the internal debate underscores the scant international appetite for a large-scale deployment of forces in Syria and the limited number of other options that could significantly change the trajectory of the conflict.
"We continue to believe that there's no military solution here that's good for the Syrian people, and that the best path forward is a political solution," State Department spokeswoman Marie Harf said. "This is about the violation of an international norm against the use of chemical weapons and how we should respond to that."
MARIE HART
State Department spokeswoman
The international community appeared to be considering action
The Obama administration was moving ahead even as a United Nations team already on the ground in Syria collected evidence from last week's attack. The U.S. said Syria's delay in giving the inspectors access rendered their investigation meaningless and
officials said the administration had its own intelligence confirming chemical weapons use.
"What is before us today is real and it is compelling," Kerry said. "Our understanding of what has already happened in Syria is grounded in
facts."
The U.S. assessment is based in part on the number of reported victims, the symptoms of those injured or killed and witness accounts. Administration officials said the U.S. had additional intelligence confirming chemical weapons use and planned to make it public in the coming days.
Officials stopped short of unequivocally stating that Assad's government was behind the attack. But they said there was "very little doubt" that it originated with
the regime, noting that Syria's rebel forces do not appear to have access to the country's chemical weapons stockpile.
Assad has denied launching a chemical attack. The U.N. team came under sniper fire Monday as it traveled to the site of the Aug. 21 attack.
It's unclear whether Obama would seek authority from the U.N. or Congress before using force. The president has spoken frequently about his preference for taking military action only with international backing, but it is likely Russia and China would block U.S. efforts to authorize action through the U.N. Security
Council.
Kerry on Monday made several veiled warnings to Russia, which has propped up Assad's regime, blocked action against Syria at the U.N., and disputed evidence of the government's chemical weapons use.
"Anyone who can claim that an attack of this staggering scale can be contrived or fabricated needs to check their conscience and their own moral compass," he said.
outline the evidence of chemical weapons use by Assad's regime. Cameron's office also said the British government would decide on Tuesday whether the timetable for the international response means it will be necessary to recall lawmakers to Parliament before their scheduled return next week. That decision could offer the clearest indication of how quickly the U.S. and allies plan to respond.
British Prime Minister David Cameron, who like Kerry cut short his vacation because of the attack, spoke Monday with Russian President Vladimir Putin to

Middle ground necessary for ideological, data approaches
Making predictions is a fundamental part of life, and growing access to data and technology might improve our prediction-making capabilities — if we take the time to hone our own skills as well. Late last June my friends and I gathered around a television set watching protests in Cairo's Tahrir Square. Over 22 million had signed a petition calling for elections to end then-President Morsi's term. As protests spread, the military issued Morsi an ultimatum: come up with a solution, or the military would end the standoff instead.
Even as military helicopters draped in Egyptian flags passed over Tahir, I predicted that the generals would not follow through. Taking responsibility for Egypt's problems seemed like a poor way to win public goodwill, I reasoned. Besides, surely the generals wouldn't want to jeopardize international aid by acting undermocratically.
My prediction turned out to be
completely false. On July 3, General el-Sisi announced that the president had been removed and the military would oversee the interim government. I resolved to give up on predicting the future of Egyptian politics and stick to strictly observing instead.
One obvious but often undervalued lesson is that our prior assumptions about the world can enormously impact our predictive capacities. I held some strong beliefs about the Egyptian military's motivations, even though I hadn't spoken with them or comprehensively examined their public actions. Good forecasters carefully consider the background of a prediction's source before accepting its credibility. For instance, a CEO might tell shareholders that the company's stock will go up after the release of a new product, but those shareholders should still seek out independent verification that the product's market exists before increasing investments.
A second possible conclusion is that if I simply had access to
By Amanda Gress agress@kansan.com
more data and computing power. I could have more accurately predicted the outcome of Egypt's June 30 movement. Satellite imaging could produce a sophisticated estimate of the number of protestors to compare with previous events. The army's structure, the frequency of public statements and the types of equipment deployed could all be collected as data points, producing a model to simulate developments.
New modeling approaches might be gaining traction in the social sciences. In a June 2012 TEDx talk entitled "Is life really that complex?" mathematician Dr. Hannah Fry discussed the potential to "use and exploit analogies between our human systems and those of the physical world around us" to better understand societal phenomena. Fry created a mathematical model of the London riots that simulated
the dynamics between rioters and police by using analogies between rioters recruiting their friends and sick people spreading a virus. She claims these comparisons enable insight into strategies for preventing future riots.
Anyone interested in improving their predictions should read famed statistician Nate Silver's phenomenal new book, "The Signal and the Noise." In "The Signal and the Noise," he warns against substituting easily accessible data for thoughtful analysis about the fundamental assumptions that make up our statistical models.
Instead, Silver recommends building our predicting muscles by regularly making forecasts of our own and then determining whether or not they end up being correct. These could be in any area, from data-rich fields like professional sports to murkier ones like Egypt's political future – the trick is to just keep predicting, and determining why we go wrong when we do.
For example, we could design
a computer program using data from previous Egyptian transitions to predict the outcome of future protests. However, power has only changed hands four times over the past fifty years, so this would poorly account for new developments. We could choose to collect data from different countries or time periods, but that would ignore the nuances of cultural difference and changes over time.
Our new approach would instead find a middle ground between ideological and data-driven approaches. By constantly refining our worldview to predict day-to-day developments, we still wouldn't develop the equivalent of a crystal ball - but wed likely improve our understanding along the way.

Experiencing college years with open mind, inclusive attitude
Dear Freshman self, congratulations, you did it. You survived
D congratulations, you did it. You survived public schooling. Now you're about to start college. You've seen all the movies that vividly show the allure of college and how to "fit in." Don't believe it - college isn't a movie.
Through a lot of trial and error, I found out that my attitude toward a new school year has greatly changed now that I'm about to graduate. As a freshman, I wish someone had told me how life would really be- all the college movies I watched only left me with a vast knowledge of the bonding powers of alcohol, as demonstrated in "Old School" and "Animal House."
Now is my chance to tell you, freshman self, what I wished I knew back then.
Major in something you will love to do, not necessarily what will get you the most money. If you're doing something you don't love, then you'll creating negativity for yourself, and that negativity will spill over into your personal life and leave you with regrets.
I started out thinking I would major in business and work on Wall Street and drive dream cars. That soon changed as I found out I didn't actually like the business side of things, just the possible fortune to be made. So I quickly switched to journalism and communication studies and soon found the combination I had been searching for. If your first major isn't for you, then don't feel like you have to stick it out. Do some

thing you'll love and youll never to work have a day in your life.
be to work a day in your job.
No regrets - take smart risks and don't be afraid to fail. My most regrettable moments in college came when I didn't seize opportunity.
It's a downward spiral that creates doubt and ends in more and more missed opportunities. Use doubt as a motivator. Don't live your life looking back and thinking,
"If only I had done this..." But let your failures be life lessons that propel you forward, not hold you back.
I often overlooked Lawrence and focused solely on KU. But as I grew older and became more understanding, I learned that KU doesn't encompass all of Lawrence, and I was missing out on what the city had to offer.
For instance, I eat on Mass Street all the time and try to stick with local eateries to get the full Lawrence experience. But I never took the time to find out the history behind Lawrence.
One of my favorite historic places to go in Lawrence is Tellers (now Merchants Pub & Plate). Not only is the food affordable for date night, but the history behind this place is rich.
Tellers, originally a bank, was robbed by Clyde Barrow and two other men in 1932. Barrow was part of the infamous duo of Bonnie and Clyde.
30 between 6.30-7-ish p.m. It's a must-see event - you're essentially reliving history.
Every year the historic robbery is reenacted; usually on September
Exclusivity is overrated. Inclusion is the key to happiness and success. When you surround yourself with people who think and act like you do, you limit yourself and likely repeat many of the same things (good or bad). Creativity is lost in repetition. But differences and inclusion can generate newer, better ideas and possibilities. So get over your personal tendencies and embrace differences as a way to better yourself and everyone.
Lastly, live a legacy. Like a pebble thrown into water, a legacy will reach far beyond its entry point. Always remember those who have impacted you, and how your actions will impact others. Take the time to share your experiences (good or bad) to benefit others. Living a legacy will reach far beyond any successful academic career.
What is my legacy? I'm still figuring that out. But I would like to think that it is to better inform students (not just freshmen) about the immense opportunities that Lawrence has to offer, but also to share my experiences and hope someone finds the ability to learn from them and make a difference in the world.

Hometown is source of pride, not jokes
I wish I could say I don't get it, but I do. Because the lack of pride that Topeka generally has doesn't start with outsiders—it starts with Topeka themselves. When you ask someone who lives in Topeka what they like about the place, they usually laugh. If it's a young person, they talk about how they can't wait to leave, and if it's anyone else they generally just shrug. No one seems to want to stand up and say, "I love Topeka."
I'm proud to say that I am from Topeka. No, seriously. No jokes here, just straight up pride. Skeptical? Yeah, you probably should be. Topeka isn't exactly known for its shiny, untarnished reputation. Between being home to the Kansas state government (which could kill any city's positivity), and being home to the Westboro Baptist Church (WBC), Topeka is pretty lacking in pride. People actually laugh sometimes if I introduce myself in class as being from Topeka. In the FFA of the UDK last semester, there were countless jokes made at Topeka's expense. Like it's so funny to live in the state capital.
And sure, while I'm not exactly to that point of pride yet, I'm still pretty dang proud. Because you know what? We may have some crazy people living in our overgrown town, but we also have the Equality House.
The Equality House, for those who don't know, is a small, brightly painted house that sits in the heart of Topeka. It is also, not at all coincidentally, located directly across the street from the WBC and serves as the headquarters for the non-profit group called Planting for Peace. In their own words, Planting for Peace bought the house "as a symbol of peace and positive change for the LGBTQ community" and is "painted the colors of the pride flag to stand as a visual reminder of our commitment, as global citizens, to this mission."
Since its unveiling early this year, the Equality House has received a solidly positive reaction from the Topeka community. This has come in many forms, from the positive comments on the local newspaper website, to the many times I've seen people stop to take a picture of the house. If I mention the house to another Topeka resident, even one that may be pretty tight-lipped about their views on marriage equality, they smile.
Because if there's one thing that unites people, it's a common enemy. And for Topeka, that common
By Anna Wenner
awenner@kansan.com
enemy is the WBC.
Now over the years there have been many creative counter protests to the WBC all over the country, but my favorites have always been those that took place in Topeka. I mean sure, the rest of the country has to deal with the WBC in its most trying hour, but Topekans, and Kansans in general, deal with the WBC on a daily basis. I pass WBC protests at least once a day during the summer because of where I live in Topeka, and have had to explain to family members and friends that visit why I have such horrible signs held up around my town. I've known kids who attended the WBC, and my church is protested every Palm Sunday. In Topeka the WBC protests are about as personal as you can get.
Therefore, when I read that 5-year-old Jayden Sink and her dad had set up a lemonade stand "for peace and love" at the Equality House, I was overjoyed. Inspired by the message of the house (while not really understanding the hate that lay just across the street), Jayden held her stand and was welcomed with open arms by the city of Topeka and thousands of online supporters.
Thus far Jayden has had two very successful Lemonade stands, the second of which took place earlier this month and started a worldwide lemonade stand fundraiser with more than 70 stands taking place simultaneously. An incredible number of people turned out to support the stands, and Jayden raised over $25,000. Not bad for a 5 year old.
And let's be honest—not bad for Topeka.
This is the sort of thing that I want to brag about. I want to return to school this fall and tell my friends that there was a fundraiser at the Equality House that I helped support. I want to tell them that there was a peaceful, creative counter-protest to the WBC right outside their front lawn that a ton of Topekans attended and supported. I want to be proud of Topeka.
Because if you can't be proud of where you live, how can you expect anyone else to be proud of it?

Franz Ferdinand album features fresh sounds
In the popular music industry, the labels "indie" and "alt rock" get thrown around, tacked on and worn out like a bandana on Willie Nelson's tour bus. But Scottish rockers Franz Ferdinand, with grinding guitar interplay, deadpan vocals and a Bauhaus aesthetic, have helped popularize the alternative genre and define those terms since their debut hit in 2004's "Take Me Out." On the new album "Right Thoughts, Right Words, Right Action," released today, the band has proven it's still the hottest thing out of Scotland since kilts and bappipes.
While "Right Thoughts" offers plenty of the tried-and-true Franz Ferdinand in songs likethe upbeat opener "Right Action," they also show a newfound willingness to experiment with their sound. Several tracks show an emotional depth and a mellower mood not present on much of the 2009 release "Tonight: Franz Ferdinand."

"Love Illumination" is set
against a gitty sonic background of rhythm guitar as leading man Alex Kapranos songs, "When you're happy from a dream / Is it hard to work out what is real?" An eerie organ, reminiscent of the electronic claviole keyboard used in the classic 1960's song "Telstar" by The Tornados, comes in with a cascading solo halfway through. It's a daring choice musically, and a nice contrast to the conventional instruments.
Likewise, songs such as "Fresh Strawberries" and "The Universe Expanded" add to the diversity of the album with a wide array of vocal effects. In the former, a pair of airy female voices harmonize behind Kapranos instead of his
bandmates, and the latter features Doo-Wop inspired vocal effects instead of bass guitar. These deep, percussive voices on "The Universe Expanded" create a hypnotic crescendo that builds until the drummer kicks in on the chorus.

Although the album often benefits from these forays into new effects and sounds, the move away from a traditional indie rock feel doesn't always pay off. The second song "Evil Eye" is a creaky, haunted house sort of melody straight out of the soundtrack to a bad Addams Family movie.
"Right Thoughts" is a solid step forward for Franz Ferdinand as they've proven themselves to be more than just another post-punk band from the UK. Yet, clunkers like "Evil Eye" and the annoyingly frenzied "Bullet" are disruptive to the album's flow and prevent it from being great.

TELEVISION

"The Thick of It" is one of two shows from the British Isles featured on Hulu. Many exclusive programs are now offered on Hulu.
BRITISH BROADCASTING CORPORATION (BBC)
Hulu bolsters varied lineup with popular foreign shows
KAITLYN HILGERS
khilgers@kansan.com
With Netflix making original shows, such as the hits "House of Cards" and "Orange is the New-Black," Hulu is trying to respond with what they call "exclusive programming." In general, these are television shows that have become hits in other places, such as Ireland and the United Kingdom. While this is a great idea, there are quite a few shows to look through (and watching ads is totally lame), so it is hard to pick one to watch. However, since the service is free, there really isn't any good reason not to watch a few of them. Lucky for us, three of these hidden shows are definitely worth checking out.
"The Thick of It"
I'll just stick to the text.
"Moone Boy"
Following the introduction of Peter Capaldi as the newest doctor for "Doctor Who," British television fans have been trying to become familiar with him as an actor. The place to start would definitely be "The Thick of It," a British political satire that focuses on the modern government. What makes this show worth watching is, in fact, the amazing cast. While much of the script is written by the writers, there are also many points where the cast chooses to improvise. On the whole, this makes the television show more honest and also demonstrates why Capaldi was selected as the next doctor.
THE LOVE CROSSING
For comedy fans, this show is where it's at. Following the life of a 12-year-old and his imaginary friend, "Moone Boy", is a fun and heartfelt show from Ireland. Chris O'Dowd (from "Bridesmaids"), not only stars as the imaginary friend, but is credited as the creator and one of the writers. He also narrates throughout the course of the show, so that we not only get the imagination from the young boy, but the unique perspective of an imaginary character. Also, since Hulu only has the six episodes in the first season, it is very easy to just watch them all in one night.
"Prisoners of War (Hatufim)"
Hatufim, or "Prisoners of War," is an Israeli television drama that follows the lives of two rescued Prisoners of War. Sound familiar? That's because if you happen to be a fan of "Homeland" this is actually the show that it was based on. There are many differences between the two, such as the original featuring two main characters versus one in the American version, but the more interesting thing is to look at the similarities between the shows. It really demonstrates that deep down, we all just really enjoy smart and exhilarating television shows. Any arguments?

Strengthen roommate bonds with housewarming dinner
DANI BRADY
dbrady@kansan.com
Moving out of our parents' house can be scary. We are excited to make our own rules and do what we want, when we want. But with this privilege come many responsibilities. We need to avoid throwing Project X level parties and, instead, focus on building relationships and memories with our roommates.
Don't get me wrong,it's important to splurge every now and then,but we also need to learn how to budget our finances and gather a sense of time management.
A housewarming dinner party with your roommates is the perfect way to start the new school year. After setting up our new homes, making class schedules, and learning how to manage on our own, a housewarming party is the perfect way to gloat over your accomplishments and talk about the upcoming year.
Hosting a dinner with your roommates and inviting over a few neighbors will slowly but surely teach you how to make a delicious meal, stay on a budget and keep a tidy house. Here are the few things you need to do to host the perfect dinner party:
1. Set a date
Talk to your roommates to plan a time that works for everyone - it's important you all are there together. After a date is set, tell your neighbors and friends - the more the merrier!
2. Clean up your place to create a homey atmosphere
A college house is a work in progress, so don't sweat it - a few lights on the porch or cool posters and pictures in the living room go
a long way.
3. Plan a delicious meal
Since we are always budgeting, make dinner for you and your roommates and invite your guests over for drinks and desserts afterwards. Below is an easy and cheap recipe you can cook at home.
Penne Pasta with Asparagus and Peppers
Ingredients
1 (9-ounce) package frozen cut asparagus
3/4 cup chicken stock
1/2 cup frozen chopped onion
1 teaspoon crushed garlic
1/2 cup roasted red and yellow pepper, cut into 1/2-inch strips
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
12 ounces penne pasta, cooked per package directions
1/4 cup grated Parmesan
1. In a large skillet, combine asparagus, stock, onions, garlic, peppers, and Italian seasoning.
Bring to a boil and reduce liquid to 1/4 cup, about 8 to 10 minutes.
Directions
Follow the recipe online!
2. Stir in remaining ingredients except cheese. Toss with hot, cooked pasta. Top with cheese and serve hot.

4. Buy the booze
Everyone can enjoy a glass of wine with dinner. But after dinner, you can get creative with mixed drinks or play it safe with beer.
Malibu Bay Breeze
1 1/2 oz Malibu* coconut rum
2 oz cranberry juice
2 oz pineapple juice
Blend ingredients and serve over ice.

TIMES BOSTON
Donald Trump started Trump University for student entrepreneurs. According to Trump, the school has a 98 percent success rate.
Trump University accused of fraud
ALBANY, N.Y. — Donald Trump on Monday defended his Trump University as a booming success for student entrepreneurs and blasted New York's attorney general, who called it a scam.
LASSOCIATED PRESS
Attorney General Eric Schneiderman shot back that Trump is making wild accusations, just like others who commit fraud and get caught.
"We have a terrific school. It's done a fantastic job." Trump told ABC's "Good Morning America." "We have a 98 percent approval rating among students."
Trump held several TV interviews to further contest the lawsuit filed Saturday by Schneiderman, which alleges the real estate mogul helped run a phony university that promised to make students rich but instead steered them into expensive and mostly useless seminars.
This is a political hack looking to get publicity," Trump said.
His attorney, Michael Cohen, said Saturday that Schneiderman was upset the reality TV star didn't give him more campaign contributions, which he claims Schneiderman sought even while
investigat Trump University. Cohen called it extortion.
Trump, in interviews with "Good Morning America" and NBC's "Today," denied Schneiderman's claims that he never

"I was totally involved to a very high degree," he said. "I told people what to do, and if they had listened to me, it would have made a lot of money."
Schneiderman wouldn't specifically say if he solicited any

"This is just an effort to distract from the substance of the case," the Democrat said. "The substance

On Saturday, after he filed the lawsuit, Schneiderman told The Associated Press: "No one, no matter how rich or famous they are, has a right to scam hard working New Yorkers."

Schneiderman is suing Trump and Trump University for $40 million, accusing them of engaging in persistent fraud, illegal and deceptive conduct and violating federal consumer protection law.
He says the developer of hotels.
casinos and more also failed to deliver promised apprenticeships.
State Education Department officials had told Trump to change the name of his enterprise years ago, saying it lacked a license and didn't meet the legal definitions of a university. In 2011, it was renamed the Trump Entrepreneur Institute.
Schneiderman claims many of the 5,000 students who paid up to $35,000 thought they would at least meet Trump, but instead, all they got was their picture taken in front of a life-size picture of "The Apprentice" star.
That's at odds with Trump's contention that 98 percent of students surveys rated the program as "excellent."
Religious art stolen in Bolivia
GLOBAL
ASSOCIATED PRESS
LA PAZ, Bolivia — The thieves tunneled under the thick walls of the colonial-era Roman Catholic church in the tiny southern Bolivian town of San Miguel de Tomave, emerged through the floor and made off with five 18th-century oil paintings of inestimable value. It was the third
time the highlands church had been plundered of sacred art since 2007.
Most of the finely-etched silver that once graced its altar was already gone. "Who would have
churches and chapels have been reported since January 2012, including two this month: Churches in Ayacucho and Puno provinces were robbed of ornamental silver laminate, or gold and silver crowns, earrings and necklaces.

In Tomave, other canvases were left behind, Dubert said, indicating the thieves knew exactly what they wanted. "These churches are

mought they would take the canvases, too? $^{2}$ the Rev. Francisco Dubert, the parish priest, asked of the 2-meter-by-1.75-meter oils depicting the Virgin Mary.
Increasingly bold thefts plague colonial churches in remote Andean towns in Bolivia and Peru, where authorities say cultural treasures are disappearing at an alarming rate. At least 10 churches have been hit so far this year in the two culturally rich but economically poor countries.
"We think the thefts are being done on behalf of collectors," said the Rev. Salvador Piniero, archbishop of Peru's highlands Ayacucho province. Religious and cultural authorities say criminal bands are stealing "to order" for foreigners.
Bolivian churches have been robbed 38 times of 447 objects since 2009 — of highly stylized decorative silverwork, canvases, polished gold and silver altar pieces and gem-encrusted jewelry, said the country's cultural patrimony chief, Lupe Meneses. In Peru, at least 30 thefts from
being robbed because terrible people want to own beautiful things." Donna Yates, a University of Glasgow archaeologist blogged afterward.
Yates, who is studying the Andes thefts for a global, European Union-funded project, said the hemorrhaging of priceless ecclesiastical art in the region has continued at a steady pace "but it's getting more brazen."
"Who is behind it? I can't say," Yates added. "The market for these goods is in Europe and the United States," she says, with Santa Fe, New Mexico, one destination as a magnet for collectors of Latin American art.
Cultural officials in the Andes have long struggled to protect Ican and pre-Columbian cultural treasures. Now, colonial sacred art has become a similar worry. By law, it is all national patrimony, its export illegal.
Where possible, churches are being fortified. Video cameras were installed and nighttime guards posted last year at Ayacucho's main cathedral in Huanganga, host to Peru's biggest annual religious pilgrimage.

Defensive depth may bring successful season for Kansas
CONNOR OBERKROM
coberkrom@kansan.com
Dave Campo may not admit it, but last year's lack of depth on defense plagued Kansas against the Big 12's hellish, up-tempo offenses.
On paper, at least, that seems to have changed for the better. It all begins with Kansas' lengthy and skilled defenders Dexter McDonald and Kevin Short, who are looking to hold down the two starting cornerback spots.
Both Short and McDonald boast impressive wingspans and athleticism that will help the Jayhawks defend against the pass-heavy league.
McDonald, a local product from Rockhurst High School, returns to the Jayhawks after being dismissed from the team when coach Charlie Weis first took over at Kansas. Short, who transferred from junior-college and was recently cleared by the NCAA, looks to bolster not only the Jayhawks secondary, but also their return game with his top-flight speed.
While he has a little catching up to do. Short still has a legitimate shot at playing a fair amount when Kansas takes the field against South Dakota on Sept. 7.
"He's one of the guys, in my mind like Dexter McDonald, he's a bigger athlete," said Defensive Coordinator Dave Campo. "We won't know exactly what we have until he's going."
While Short may be a little behind in adjusting to the new system, Campo said cornerback is one position in which relying on athletic ability is more crucial than anything else.
Two other guys that have been a part of the corner competition are junior JaCorey Shepherd and junior-college transfer Brandon Hollomon. The tight position battle speaks volumes to the added depth that Campo has been embracing throughout camp.
The big rotations define defenses in this league. Having two shutdown corners can help matters but the comfort of being able to shuffle players in without suffering a major dropoff in talent is even more beneficial. That's something Campo feels he can now do.
"With the tempo of the game and 90 plays a game, you can't just play two guys," Campo said. "That's something I did last year. I had no confidence whatsoever in guys that were backup positions."
Last season, Campo came to Kansas after a lengthy NFL career coaching defense for the Dallas Cowboys. He had to deal with facing these cutting edge, no huddle offenses in the Big 12 that were unlike anything he was used to. Now, one year later, Campo feels much more confident and comfortable in preparing to face the conference's best.
KANSAN FILE PHOTO
“It’s a different game,” Campo said. “I know the offensive coaches around this league are going to get mad when I say this but they're cheating. The game of football is not football it's fast-break offense. So, you have to be ready to cheat right along with them.”
Defensive Coordinator Dave Campo talks to players while they stretch out during a practice April 24, 2012. Campo coached in the NFL for more than 20 years before coming to Kansas.
KU
The league has made it abundantly clear that tempo is the name of its game and they aren't turning down the engine anytime soon.
"In critical situations we gave up big plays." Campo said of last year's team. "I feel like we were tired and we weren't mentally tough enough and that comes from the way you practice. If you're forced to do it, it becomes a habit. We needed better practice habits."

Toronto ends losing streak with 5-2 win against Yankees
MLB
ASSOCIATED PRESS
TORONTO — R.A. Dickey pitched into the seventh inning, Jose Reyes sparked Toronto's offense and the Blue Jays snapped a 10-game losing streak against the New York Yankees with a 5-2 victory on Monday night.
Alex Rodriguez hit his 650th home run, a leadoff drive in the fifth, but the Yankees lost for the ninth time in 13 road games this month. Rodriguez is 10 homers away from tying Willie Mays for fourth on the career list, which would secure a $6 million bonus for the third baseman.
Derek Jeter went hitless in his
return to New York's lineup. Jeter, who started at shortstop and batted second, finished 0 for 3 with a walk, grounding into a double play in the third.
Reyes walked and scored in the third, and doubled and scored in Toronto's three-run fifth as the Blue Jays beat the Yankees for just the second time in 14 meetings this season. Toronto had lost 10 straight to its division rival since an 8-4 home win on April 21.
Dickey (10-12) allowed two runs, one earned, and six hits in 61-3-1 innings to win for the first time since Aug. 5 at Seattle. The knuckleballer was 1 with a 4.54 ERA
BLUE JAYS
in his three previous starts. It was Dickey's first victory over the Yankees since May 21, 2011, when he played for the New York Mets.
Rodriguez's home run was the 29th allowed by Dickey this season, second only to Oakland's A.J. Griffin. Dickey has given up 20 homers in 14 home starts.
Toronto Blue Jays starting pitcher R.A. Dickey pitches against the New York Yankees during the first inning of a baseball game in Toronto on Monday.

DEFENSIVE BREAKDOWN
Impressive depth for 2013 Jayhawk football
MAX GOODWIN
mgoodwin@kansan.com
The most noticeable difference this season on the defensive depth chart is the depth at nearly every position. The defensive coaches are all fired up about the improvements made in personnel all over the field.
There is competition at nearly every position and some newcomers are already expected to start.
The Jayhawks moved to a nickel base defense, adding a fifth defensive back on the field to give them a better matchup against the passing attacks of the Big 12. Coach Charlie Weis said that he plans on having the scout team offense rotate with each play to simulate the quick snaps some Big 12 teams use.
Defensive line:
This appears to be a defensive line that will get after the quarterback on the pass rush. Between the three starters, Marquel Combs, Keon Stowers and Keba Agostinho, there is size, speed and strength.
size, speed and strength. Combs is the most important piece to the unit. Teammates say he has the skills to rush the quarterback, but is even better at filling the gaps against the run. Combs said he's looking forward to coming off the edge and being a pass rusher in a different role than he had at junior college.
Hawes will play in the middle at nose tackle and be more of an outspoken leader in his second year at Kansas. And Agostinho is said to be the fastest player the Jayhawks have on the defensive line.
KU
Jordan Taval and Andrew Bolton are both likely to see regular playing time and could compete for a starting position at some point during the season as well. Bolton is a junior college transfer with size and athleticism but comes in after sitting most of last season due to a knee injury.
---
Secondary:
The Jayhawks enter the 2013 season with an entirely new starting secondary. Bradley McDougald, the defensive leader of last year's team is graduated, and Cassius Sendish has stepped into the role.
Sendish will play nickelback for the Jayhawks, and he has the versatility and intelligence to step into any spot he is most needed in the Kansas secondary.
JaCorey Shepherd received three starts last season, when he moved from the offensive side of the ball to cornerback. For now, Shepherd is the starter on the left side, with Dexter McDonald starting on the right side after transferring back to Kansas after a year at Butler Community College. There is plenty of depth at corner with junior college transfers Brandon Hollomon and Kevin Short.
Linebackers:
The linebacker position features the most experience on the field for Kansas. Between the three starters listed on the depth chart to open fall camp, Ben Goodman is the only linebacker to miss a game.
Goodman is listed as the first string buck for the Jayhawks. He will be in position to make a lot of plays as a hybrid of the linebacker and defensive line positions. Michael Reynolds is listed as the back up at buck, but could compete for the starting job and will contribute to the defense regardless.
the defense. Regular.
At middle linebacker Ben Heeney led the team in tackles a year ago and had the third most in the Big 12. Heeney is one of the few defensive players that Kansas coaches know exactly what to expect from.
inere is an intense battle for the starting weakside linebacker position between Jake Love and junior college transfer Samson Faifili. Love brings experience to the team after playing 12 games last season, while Faifili brings energy that can fire up the entire defense.

Sounds easy on the surface. Yet to someone like myself who truly loves and breathes fantasy football, it is a five-month journey with as many ups and downs as the roller coasters at Six Flags.
According to the Fantasy Sports Trade Association, nearly 32 million people compete in fantasy sports, with 90 percent participating in fantasy football. It's calculated that there is a 60 percent increase in participation since 2008.
Fantasy football has a wide variety of participants. There are the 12-year-old boys who are just getting into football and then there are 50-year-old men who have been bleeding their team colors for nearly
half a century. That is what's so great about fantasy football. It reaches out to millions of different kinds of people.
There are leagues on ESPN.com, Yahoo.com, CBS.com and many more. There are free leagues, paid leagues, public leagues and private leagues. There are snake drafts, auction drafts and fixed drafts. There are Standard leagues, Two-Quarterback leagues and Points-PerReception Leagues. There is something for every kind of fan in the fantasy football world.
Now, these are just the "X's and O's" of fantasy football, there is so much more to it. Fantasy football does a great job of
combining fun and entertainment with enormous amounts of stress and misfortune. One wrong move on draft day can truly ruin your entire season.
This happened to me in 2011 when I drafted Jamaal Charles with the 4 went down with a season-ending injury in week two - thanks Chiefs. This injury sent me into a whirlwind of trade proposals and desperate waiver wire acquisitions.
The selection of one player could end your season before it even starts. This is why there is so much time and preparation put into fantasy sports. I begin planning for the next fantasy season as the Super Bowl clock strikes zero. There are player evaluations to be read, matchups to be analyzed and injuries to dissect. Fantasy Football is an all-year job. If you truly want to be a champion it takes just about as much dedication as a job or school.

Fantasy Football is a hobby, it's a pastime, and for some, it can even be an addiction. But it is something that has become a worldwide craze. It is a way for people to
young child grows up wanting to be a professional athlete, or a head coach, or wanting to own their own sports franchise. Fantasy Football allows us to live out that dream and make our own decisions in the sports world. We can truly connect to the game and interact with it on a far deeper level beyond just being a spectator.
For me, Fantasy Football is a continuation of my love and passion for the world of sports.

Guthrie leads Royals in decisive victory over Myers' Rays
ASSOCIATED PRESS
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — The Royals' Jeremy Guthrie held down Wil Myers and the Tampa Bay Rays over five innings and Kansas City rolled to an 11-1 victory Monday in the makeup of a snowed-out game from early May.
Guthrie (13-10) allowed six hits and three walks but twice delivered timely strikeouts. He fanned Kelly Johnson with two aboard to end the third inning, and then struck out David Dejesus on a called third strike to leave the
Salvador Perez hit a three-run homer and finished with fourRBIs. Billy Butler homered and drove in three, and Mike Mous-
bases loaded in the fourth.
Rays manager Joe Maddon argued that the call and was tossed by plate umpire Greg Gibson. Jeremy Hellickson (10-8) allowed five runs in just 2-2-3 innings for Tampa Bay. It 0was the struggling righthander's shortest start since June 30, 2012, when he went the same distance in a game against Detroit before getting pelted in the leg by a line drive.
It seemed like a season ago when the teams first tried to play. The
takas also drove in a pair as the Royals won their second straight following a seven-game slide in which their biggest problem was scoring runs.
James Loney drove in the only run for the Rays, who no doubt rued having to make the quick trip to Kansas City in the midst of a six-game homestand. They began the day a game back of the Red Sox in the AL East and lead the American League wild-card standings.
temperature was 41 degrees with a wind chill of 21 at first pitch on May 2, and Kauffman Stadium resembled a snow globe by the fourth inning as flurries fell. The game called with the Royals leading 1-0.
It was 93 degrees at first pitch
Monday, making for a 52-degree
difference from the original date.
Sunny skies and a slight breeze
meet it even warmer.
The biggest subplot to the game wasn't the weather, though, but the return of Myers to Kansas City. The former minor league player of
the year was the key to a seven-player trade last December that netted the Royals starting pitchers James Shields and Wade Davis.
Myers hadn't played at the K since the All-Star Futures Game in 2012, when he went 2 for 4 and drove in the three runs. He didn't fare nearly as well against big league pitching, either: He went 0 for 4 with two strikeouts, slamming his bat down after a pop out in the fifth inning.
The Royals struck first on Butler's RBI single in the first, but they didn't really break through until
the third inning. Three straight hits and a walk scored two runs, a sacrifice fly added another, and Justin Maxwell's RBI single helped drive Hellickson from the game. Hellickson fell to 0-5 in his last six starts. He's made it through five innings once.The Royals tacked on five more runs in the sixth against the Tampa Bay bullpen, highlighted by Perez's three-run shot. That was more than enough help for the Royals' relief corps, which put together four shutout innings to end Guthrie's three-game losing streak.

COMMENTARY
Need to win motivates players
By Ben Ashworth bashworth@kansan.com
Head coach Charlie Weis is in a unique situation this year. He can win three games, and many Kansas fans would still consider the year a success.
A three-win season would have a coach at Alabama, Florida or Ohio State perusing the want ads looking for high school waterboy positions.
At Kansas, however, a three-win season would triple Weis' win total in the 2012 season. Grounded fans would remain unimpressed, but many who are thirsty for Kansas football to achieve lasting success would focus on the positives
It's certainly nice for the head coach and athletic director to have fans with low expectations. Nevertheless, the Kansas football program cannot afford for its fans to be complacent.
I know that when you are a C student it is easier to shoot for a C plus than to strive for an A. High expectations dramatically increase the chances of disappointment while tempered expectations are met more often than not.
However, Weis and his staff need the pressure to succeed. His performance in recruiting talent over the last year indicates his acknowledgment of the pressure. Weis brought in top defensive tackle Marquel Combs to anchor his defensive line, and two highly touted transfers and former four-star recruits in Jake Heaps and Justin McCay will join his offense at quarterback and wide receiver, respectively. They will attempt to jolt an offense that operated like it was on two percent battery life.
Unfortunately, the news hasn't been all good on the recruiting front. Talented defensive end Chris Martin, a former Florida recruit, was kicked off the team for armed robbery. Graduate transfer Nick Harwell was slated to start opposite McCay, but was deemed ineligible for failure to complete his summer credits. Despite these setbacks, it is clear that Weis responded to the pressure to recruit talent to Lawrence. With regard to the team's record, last year was a freebie of sorts. He now needs to respond to the pressure to win.
Two more wins would be an improvement, statistically speaking, and five years down the road it could be seen as a stepping stone to a competent, consistent team. But for right now, Kansas fans must demand more and see the team as a more competitive squad.
There is especially no excuse for the defense to perform as poorly as it did last year. Cornerbacks gave cushion to the wide receivers as though the wideouts had a run-in with a skunk. With so little pressure exerted by the pass rush, the opposing quarterbacks could have had time to complete a New York Times crossword before targeting a receiver. Weis specializes in offense, but is still responsible for the overall performance of the team, including its defense.
At the end of the year, the jayhawks may win six or seven games. They may win three. It's certainly possible that they only win one. But right now, potential wins are pure speculation. Increased pressure helped lead to Wei's recruiting success. That same increased pressure could cause the Jayhawks to do more than just improve. They could contend.

Kansas volleyball hopes to grab first Big 12 championship
FIGHT FOR THE TITLE
IBRIAN HILLIX
bhillix@kansan.com
While last season would be deemed an accomplishment by many, the Kansas women's volley ball team knows it can do more.
With classes starting later than usual this year, the team had more time to prepare for a season that is shaping up to be an exciting one. After tasting success last year, Coach Bechard knows this team is capable of leaving its mark on Kansas volleyball history.
"We talked about how you go from successful to significant," Bechard said. "That's one of the
themes that we've used this year."
According to Bechard, that means winning against quality opponents on the road and winning close games.
"When you want to become
significant in the collegiate world of volleyball you have to take it to a new level in a lot of different ways," Bechard said.
To prepare for the tough conference schedule, the Jayhawks will open the season with difficult non-conference matches—nine out of 10 being on the road. The slate of games includes teams from the Pac 12, Big 10 and SEC. It also features a matchup against No. 25 Creighton from the Missouri Valley Conference. Bechard also he hopes these early season matches against unfamiliar opponents will help the Jayhawks prepare for a style of play they might encounter in the postseason.
"It can be intimidating at first, but with the experience and veterans we have I think we walk around with the same swagger, too."
on the road.
Moving into the Big 12 portion of the schedule, the Jayhawks will look to make noise in a conference that features the No. 1 (Texas) and No. 15 ( Iowa State) teams in the country. Texas won the NCAA National Championship last year, while Iowa State advanced to the Sweet 16. Kansas will play each team at home and
The team was a few close matches away from coming out on top of the Big 12 last season. The Jayhawks finished 12-4 in conference, including a five-set home loss to Texas and four-set losses to Iowa State and Baylor on the road. Bechard said winning matches like those would be crucial in order to compete in the conference.
"Volleyball can come down to one or two close plays, and experience allows you to win these close games and jump over that line." Bechard said.
Texas and Iowa State both ben-

"It can be intimidating at first, but with the experience and veterans we have I think we walk around with that same swagger, too." Riley said.
Senior libero Brianne Riley said each team has a swagger about them when they walk in a gym.
Kansas enjoys a home court advantage of its own, as the Jayhawks went 17-1 in the regular season at Horeksi Family Athletics Center last year. To gain experience in other settings, the team practiced at a high school in the preseason. McNorton said it was good to get a feel for other courts because the team feels so comfortable at Horeksi.
When it starts competition on Aug. 30, the Kansas squad will look to claim its first Big 12 championship since the conference began competition in 1996-97, and advance past the second round of the NCAA Tournament for the first time in the program's history.

Charlie Weis spoke to the media for about ten minutes on Monday for the weekly Big 12 teleconference, giving some interesting information in his first session of the season.
The first nugget of information he provided is one that most would probably have already assumed, but may be reassuring nonetheless. The Kansas depth chart is about 90 percent resolved, with very few position battles left in the first and second string. That depth chart will be released next week.

The second point was the team's schedule for the first bye week, which comes unusually during the opening weekend of college football. Really, it's not much of a bye week at all for the team, at least that's the idea.
The team will go through this week the same as they would as if there were a game, and on Saturday they will practice at 7 a.m. and spend the rest of the day watching college football, while coaches attempt to get a head start on
The intended purpose of simulating a game week is to practice time management. "That way, everyone can say 'here's how it goes'," Weis said, "so now when you get to the practice field and get to game day, they've already gone through it once, which I think should definitely help us next week when we're actually getting ready to play."
watching him of opposing teams they face early in the season. In most years, Weis said he would rather play the first week, but this year with so many junior college transfers, having the first week off will serve as even more time for preparation.
Weis said that if there was a game on Saturday, junior quarterback Jake Heaps, who redshirted last season due to transfer rules would be ready to play. But for the first week of camp, Heaps was over- anxious and throwing the ball too hard.
At a mid-camp press conference Weis announced that he would have his defense practice against two separate offenses, which would be continually rotating to simulate the way Big 12 offenses snap the

That's what this week is all about for the Jayhawks: extra time for preparation.

Students' porch furniture in danger
I CODY KUIPER
ckuiper@kansan.com
On the recommendation of the Lawrence Fire Department, the Lawrence City Commission is looking into an ordinance that bans all upholstered furniture from being kept on porches.
The Lawrence Fire Department says the type of indoor furniture many students keep on their patios for relaxation is made of highly flammable materials and typically block the path of escape during fires.
LFD Prevention Chief Jim King says students will still be allowed to keep furniture that is marketed for outdoor use, like lawn chairs, and that the ordinance's purpose is to prevent a potential tragedy at the University.
"The goal is not to remove the whole furniture aspect from college life," he said. "It's more about not suffering the loss of a student to a fire because the furniture was there and blocked a path or caused the fire to burn faster and hotter."
If it's passed by the city commission, the ordinance could go into effect in 8 to 10 weeks. City
Commissioner Bob Schumm reiterated that the ordinance must be put in place to protect students, despite the unpopularity it might have amongst them.
"The oath of our office is to provide for the health, safety and well being of our citizens, so we take that charge very strongly, and we try to be proactive in that," he said. "We aren't trying to take anybody's fun away or easy-living away, we're looking at it in terms of safety."
Justin Lee, a senior from Wichita, doesn't think the ordinance will make students any safer, and says he plans on keeping his furniture on his porch unless he's threatened with a fine.
"There are a lot of things that are flammable, and couches are one of them." Lee said. "Maybe we shouldn't build our houses out of wood because it's flammable too. I think the whole law is just about feeling good,and about the politicians feeling like they did something good."

Lawrence police increase focus on Labor Day drunk driving

Lawrence is in full swing once again with the start of the fall semester and students are eager to show that they havent lost a step in their party skill set. With this influx of students returning and making sure that they celebrate the new semester, there are a few concerns that must be addressed by local law enforcement officials.

Returning students are familiar with the trend of increased patrols around the start of classes, but there is something different about the Lawrence Police Department's efforts this year. The department recently received a substantial grant from the Kansas Department of Transportation, or KDOT, that will allow them to send out overtime patrols through Labor Day weekend. Students may recognize the
KDOT has given this grant to the LPD for the specific purpose of targeting DUIs and other alcohol related violations around town. The focus of these efforts, unlike previous ones focused on citations, is on safety. "We have seen an emerging trend over a number of years concerning people consuming too much alcohol and becoming seriously injured," said Sgt. Trent McKenley, a spokesperson for the LPD.
name KDOT from the "You drink
You drive. You lose" campaign
As well as going to local bars, searching for underage drinkers and writing citations, the patrol officers are attempting to reduce the number of violent crimes and accidents related to alcohol consumption.
Just this past Friday with the combined efforts of the DUI checkpoint on the 1100 block of Tennessee Street and the saturation patrols, officers managed to write 12 DUIs, 49 seat belt violations, 24 alcohol citations and 22 other citations such as speeding and texting while driving.
Lawrence police are increasing efforts after recently recieving a grant from the Kansas Department of Transportation.
Some students may think that they have nothing to worry about, since they never drink and drive and don't drunkenly dance in the streets on their way to Massachusetts Street. An emerging trend has shed light on the error in this way of thinking.
"We have seen an increase in the number of people becoming victims of violent assaults and robberies due to overconsumption of alcohol," McKinley said. Students who obey all traffic laws and simply walk home while intoxicated are putting themselves at risk of becoming a victim in one of these violent crimes.
Sgt. McKinley and the rest of the Lawrence Police Department suggest that students be mindful of their surroundings and never

Radio channel lifts ban on abortion ads
WICHITA — Media conglomerate Clear Channel lifted its ban Tuesday on radio ads purchased by Wichita's first abortion clinic to open since Dr. George Tiller was killed in 2009. The broadcaster reversed course as supporters of the South Wind Women's Center prepared to deliver a petition Wednesday with 68,000 signatures, asking the broadcaster to reconsider last month's decision that yanked the ads, which promoted health care services. Based on a "thoughtful discussion" with the clinic, Clear Channel said it made sense to take a closer look at the criteria it uses to determine whether an advertisement should air. The company said the petition did not play into its decision.
Tony Matteo, Clear Channel operations manager in Wichita, said that while the company recognized that certain advertising may stir passionate viewpoints, it determined that "as a responsible broadcaster we should use our best judgment to accept and run ads that do not violate the law or FCC standards and which are not intentionally hateful or incendiary."
Sarah Anderson, a spokeswoman for abortion rights group Trust Women, which opened the center in April, said South Wind was verbally notified late Tuesday afternoon of Clear Channel's reversal and would likely cancel Wednesday's event in which it planned to deliver the petition. Julie Burkhart, the clinic's executive director, was not immediately available to comment on the late development. Burkhart is also the leader for Trust Women. South Wind is the only clinic that provides abortions in Wichita, and it also offers a full range of reproductive health care
services, including subsidized birth control for low-income patients. It is housed in the same building used by Tiller's clinic. Tiller, one of the nations' few late-term abortion providers at the time of his death, was gunned down in 2009 in his Wichita church by an abortion opponent. Burkham worked for Tiller for seven years. Burkham said earlier in the day that the petitions are important because the new clinic has tried to "normalize" women's medical services, such as abortions. "And I think that is part of our effort to continue to normalize our work as a medical provider
and facility — to be able to communicate with women and their families in this community about the services that we offer and to let people in the community know we are here for them," she said. The center collected signatures in partnership with Women, Action & the Media, a national nonprofit that advocates for gender equity in media. The "vast majority" of the signatures collected came from outside Wichita, said Jaclyn Friedman, the group's executive director. South Wind began advertising on other Wichita stations in June without incident, Burkhardt said.

Record wildfires continue in Southwest
Firefighters walk along state Highway 120 as firefighters continue to battle the Rim Fire near Yosemite National Park, Calif., on Sunday. Fire crews are clearing brush and setting sprinklers to protect two groves of giant sequoias as a massive week-old wildfire rages along the remote northwest edge of Yosemite National Park.
ASSOCIATED PRESS
SACRAMENTO, Calif. — Unnaturally long intervals between wildfires and years of drought primed the Sierra Nevada for the explosive conflagration chewing up the rugged landscape on the edge of Yosemite National Park, forestry experts say.
The fire ravaged 282 square miles by Tuesday, the biggest in the Sierra's recorded history and one of the largest on record in California.
Containment increased to
20 percent, but the number of destroyed structures rose to 101 and some 4,500 structures remained threatened. The types of lost buildings were not specified. Firefighters were making stands at Tuolumne City and other mountain communities.
The blaze was just 40 acres when it was discovered near a road in Stanislaus National Forest on Aug. 17, but firefighters had no chance of stopping it in the early days.
Fuelled by thick forest floor vegetation in steep river canyons, it exploded to 10,000 acres 36 hours
later, then to 54,000 acres and 105,620 acres within the next two days. On its 11th day it surpassed 179,400 acres, becoming the seventh-largest California wildfire in records dating to 1932.
Federal forest ecologists say that historic policies of fire suppression to protect Sierra timber interests left a century's worth of fuel in the fire's path.
areas that had burned in the past two decades, and Safford says that shows the utility of prescribed and natural burns that clear brush and allow wildfires to move rapidly without killing trees.
"That's called made the wood pile bigger," said Hugh Safford, an ecologist with the U.S. Forest Service in California.
Two years of drought and a
"If you look at the Sierra Nevada as a whole, by far the largest portion hasn't seen a fire since the 1910s and 1920s, which is very unnatural," said Safford, who authored several papers on the increasing wildlife severity across California's mountain ranges. "This one isn't stopping for a while."
constant slow warming across the Sierra Nevada also worked to turn the Rim Fire into an inferno. For years forest ecologists have warned that Western wildfires will only get worse.
"Every year the summer temperatures are a little warmer, hence the conditions for burning are a little more auspicious," said Safford. "People can deny it all they want but it's happening. Every year the fuels are a little bit drier."
The Rim Fire's exponential growth slowed only after hitting

Trying to find shade at the bus stop is now like trying to find space in the Snow Hall entrance during a downpour.
Anyone else think it's weird that @squirellsofu hasnt graduated yet?
I feel as though I'm starting to see forbidden knowledge. Both the Google store and Amazon are unaware of one of my textbooks. And it came out 7 years ago.
Freshmen, stop boarding at the back of the bus or we can start giving you the "300" treatment. "This is KU!" "kicks freshman off bus"

The only thing that has changed about my major in two years is I went from undecided to radically undecided.
First day of vector calc we were subtracting vectors graphically. Long story short, I may have tricked the professor into saying "touching tips is okay."
Decided to go in a different direction. I'm now majoring in sleeping in & staying poor.
Couldn't find my class in Malott, so I went home and dropped it.
Tip to Freshmen. You want to take the 43 to Daisy Hill. Just look for the 43, loves.

Recycling has mixed effects on economy and environment
Recycling is bad for the environment? This statement sounds like a paradox, however some economic and environmental downfalls accompany this sustainable practice. I assumed arguments against recycling were just urban myths or excuses to absolve guilt for not participating in this relatively easy-to-implement practice. I was wrong.
There are so many articles on the Internet about how recycling is pointless and is damaging rather than beneficial. Even as an advocate for recycling, I have to admit they make some valid points, although I maintain my belief that recycling is an overall benefit to society.
Alan Caruba, author of "The Utter Waste of Recycling" states, "New York City suspended the
collection of plastic and beverage cartons for a year and the collection of glass for two years. Said the Mayor, "This temporary suspension will save the City an estimated $40 million."
Roy E. Cordato, author of "Don't Recycle: Throw It Away!" argues that "curbside recycling programs require more trash pickups per week. This means more trucks on the road generating more air pollution. Due to mandatory recycling, New York City had to add two additional pickups per week and Los Angeles has had to double its fleet of trash trucks."
Seldom do people hope to cost our government more money and increase air pollution, yet these authors ignore the longterm detriments that come with abandoning the practice of recycling as well as crucial facts that
By Jenny Stern jstern@kansan.com
explain why recycling is so highly regarded.
First of all, recycling saves energy by allowing the synthesis of materials to start at a midpoint rather than starting from scratch. The city of Denver has an article on their website called "Recycling Myths: Learn the Truth". Here they state that "a recent study found that the total energy used to collect, haul and process a ton of recyclables is less than 1 million Btu and that it takes approximately 10.4 million Btu to manufacture products from a ton of recyclables. In comparison, it takes 23.3 million Btu to manufacture those same products from virgin materials. That's a savings of 11.9
million Btu per ton of material recycled." A Btu, as explained by Wikipedia, is a traditional unit of energy equal to about 1055 joules, or the amount of energy needed to cool or heat one pound of water by one degree Fahrenheit.
As for the increased cost of recycling, cities usually save money by recycling. Returning to the example of Denver in their "Recycling Myths: Learn the Truth", "the City receives $33 per ton [of recycling]; however, every time we take a ton of trash to the landfill it costs us about $13 per ton. This means the City is able to save money every time someone takes recyclable material out of their trash cans and puts it in a recycling cart."
Recycling also saves trees. Cordata argues that if recycling continues, by rule of supply and demand, fewer trees will be planted. A study done by Worldwatch Institute refutes this argument as their study estimated that if all the newspapers in the U.S. were recycled for one day, 41,000 less trees would need to be cut down. So maybe recycling isn't as earth-saving and cost effective as I originally thought it to be, but I think the most important point is that although we slightly increase our carbon footprint as we recycle, we are offsetting extremely detrimental practices that will eventually be the end of our earth and truly are making a difference.

LIFESTYLE
Modern women have options other than domestic duties
As my junior year commences, Susan Patton and my hometown will be disappointed to learn I will not have a 'ring by spring' of my senior year. I also have yet to find someone who will both fertilize my eggs and help me rear my future, questionably-existent children. When I graduate in May '15, I will not be picking out wedding catering or baby carriages, but rather career opportunities preferably outside the fast food industry. Plans for my degree, my mini-fridge and my womb are all up in the air. That's right; I don't even know if I want to keep my mini-fridge, let alone copulate with someone.
Luckily, it's becoming socially acceptable for Millennials and Gen X to forgo procreation. However, when I return to my roots in Southeast Kansas, I'm reminded that my biological clock is ticking away. My eggs will dry up and more pregnancy complications arise with age. Some fellow high school graduates have already had their first and second babies, all before they can legally drink. To each their own, I say! But as they lactate and deal with baby-daddy issues, I'm content letting my eggs fry as my laptop roasts my ovaries and chances of having normal children.
In talking to others my age, I sensed a general theme of relief. Cohorts showed solace that the pressure to spawn had been taken off for a longer period of time. Most do want children, only in the distant future. But while
By Anrenee Reasor areasor@kansan.com
some people said they couldn't imagine having children, they also could not fathom being 65+ and not having a family or grand-kids to dote on. One friend said he wants children simply because "they could do stuff for me, like run errands to the grocery store." Another person desired children for their perceived adorable qualities. She plans on sewing clothing, knitting baby hats, and shopping for cute outfits! Horrible reasons by both in my opinion. Why do we want to have children? From a scientific standpoint, we are biologically designed to desire reproduction, so our existence continues and flourishes. Any species too adverse to siring offspring will inevitably die out. Socially, children fulfill their part in the Great American Dream, but with many strings attached. Sure, they're cute, but they also require constant care for the first decade of life. Not to mention having a child expedites a woman's body in aging. Everything goes south, but birthing makes it happen sooner*
A recent Time Magazine study stated the opportunity cost in foregone corporate ladder climbing for a woman to have a child averages around $1,000,000. Raising a child from birth to 18 years ends up just shy of $250,000, not including college costs. And you can't raise just one child; it's practically a minimum of two nowadays. How many "only children" do you know? If you really want your children to take care of you in your old age, you can't put all your eggs in one basket! Distribute the burden between at least two kids!
I asked my own parents if they would have children again knowing what they know now. My mom asserted that it was "a real, eye-opening experience." This is also a phrase I use to describe unpleasant, tortuous scenarios. She said she enjoyed our younger years and travelling with us, but the costs never end. From there she launched into a tirade about car, health, and dental insurance, college tuition and other general expenses. I like to believe she enjoyed raising my sister and me, and many photo albums and home videos support this. My dad loves humoring me. He said he loved having kids and couldn't imagine not doing it again, but he's also a better liar than my mom.
I also inquired how they felt about being denied grandchildren. They didn't seem to mind because they both plan on being cremated by the time my sister or I would ever multiply. This is either a testament to their own health or a lack of faith in their children's romantic lives. Fair enough! Not being pressured to produce grandkids in the near future provides comfort, for now.

HEALTHY FUN
Five easy steps to enjoying life more
I'm the beginning of another exciting semester at KU and it seems I'm not the only one feeling positive vibes in the air, which really brings a smile to my face. Whether you're having a rough time or a great one, I will share with you some of that boundless and infinite wisdom I have to help you have more fun.
STEP 1: GET SOME FRIENDS AND CHECK OUT THE TOY SECTION AT WAL-MART
STEP 2: GET A BUNCH OF PEOPLE TO
TIMES AND SEEK WITH YOU
We all love having fun. It's easy and we all know how to do it - all you have to do is remember a few things from when you were young. When we were children the only thing we really tried to do was have fun and we did it by playing. So here are four things you can do to have some delightful, childish fun.
When you are a little kid, going to the toy section at the store is basically what it's all about. Toys were the most amazing thing about being a kid. Yet when we get older, we start spending all our money on clothes and booze. Take ten bucks to Wal-Mart and check out the toy section; I guarantee you will leave with something! How do I guarantee this? Because if you go to the toy section and don't purchase the 50 cent water gun, you're just plain looy. Not to mention the super-soakers, Styrofoam swords or even the classic Red Bouncy Ball. You know the one I'm talking about. We stop buying these things when we get older, but speaking from experience, they are no less enjoyable.
PLAY RIDGE-AND-SEEK WITH YOU.
What is one of the most enjoyable games that a group of people can play with each other? Hide-and-seek: a classic staple in every one's childhood that's equally as fun when you're older. Seriously, if you live in the dorms this is easy. Get five people and start playing and you can be certain that more will soon join. Play it inside or outside, during the day or during the night. You can tweak the rules however you want and it's free.
If you aren't in the mood for hide-and-seek you can play

Believe it or not, before your libido kicked in and you started focusing on how to act refined in front of people, you used to have more fun because you didn't care as much. Being carefree is a lost form of art that requires 100% commitment to being nice whenever you can, making jokes with strangers, and just being goofy. Some of us aren't there yet because we want to impress each other and, maybe, harness a false sense of maturity. But the reality is, maturity is naivety. You know that crazy grandpa or uncle who acts like a complete goof? I can assure you, he has his deep thoughts and heavy burdens to bear.
STEP 4: SMILE, LAUGH, AND STOP TAKING EVERYTHING SD DAMN SERIOUSLY
Watching Wile E. Coyote try and fail to catch Roadrunner with every insane invention that ACME could fathom is hilarious. Seriously, if I ever find a bat-suit, I am buying it.
By Nathan Bartocci nbartocci@kansan.com
Just remember that ultimately, life is one great enjoyable adventure and we are at the perfect age to have the best of both worlds.
Nathan Bartocci is a junior majoring in Strategic Communications with a film minor from Johnson County.
STEP 3: WATCH SOME LOONEY TUNES Yeah, I admit this one is a little subjective, but if you'd rather, you can watch some Invader Zim, DuckTakes or Johnny Bravo. I watched a lot of that stuff as a kid and it made me happy. Today when watching those old cartoons you pick up on all the adult-humor (such as the full-scene parody of The Big Lebowski in Power Puff Girls) while feeling nostalgic about your younger days and the things that used to make you laugh.
variations such as flashlight tag or capture the flag stealth mode. I don't really know how else to sell this, just play it. You know you love hide and seek.

SHE CAN'T STOP
Cyrus' new album "BANGERZ" sure to ruffle some feathers
SOPHIA TEMPLIN stemplin@kansan.com
The Miley Cyrus that America fell in love with is long gone and in her place is a twerking pop artist with a pixie cut. Judge her and call her what you want. Her songs are still chart toppers you sing along to. Cyrus plans on releasing her fourth studio album, "BANGERZ," on iTunes Oct. 8, 2013, and it's full of songs that are definitely not Disney appropriate.
Cyrus described the upcoming album as "dirty south hip-hop." If the rest of the album follows suit of the two singles that have already released and Cyrus' risque performance at the 2013 Video Music Awards, then it's safe to say Cyrus will deliver — primarily under the word "dirty."
"We Can't Stop" was released June 3, 2013, and over 2,190,000 copies have sold in five countries, which makes it Cyrus' highest charting song next to "Party in the U.S.A." The video that accompanied "We Can't Stop" stirred viewers and critics gave it mixed reviews due to Cyrus' provocative actions and promiscuous dancing.
"Wrecking Ball" was dropped Aug. 23. The single is also off of "BANGERZ" and gives a different feel than "We Can't Stop." Instead of dirty hip-hop, it is an emotional power ballad focusing on heartbreak. The song recently knocked Katy Perry's new song, "Roar," off the Top Single spot on iTunes.
Although "Wrecking ball" is far from what was expected of Cyrus'
new album, "BANGERZ" should get a dirtier hip-hop feel from other songs. The album is said to feature Cyrus collaborating with the likes of Juicy J and Britney Spears.
Although Cyrus' more recent dance moves have been deemed inappropriate, is it any worse than the moves busted out on the weekend? Even though Cyrus has stirred some feathers, you're more than likely going to enjoy singing along to her new songs. If you're like me, you probably already preordered the album. It's time to sever Hannah Montana from Miley Cyrus and just understand that it's "her] party and [she] can do what she want[s]."

CASSIDY RITTER/KANSAN
New breakfast spot offers fresh food and cocktails
CASSIDY RITTER critter@kansan.com
Everyone loves a good breakfast, and thanks to owners Kenny Pingleton, and Manda and Sean Jolly. Lawrence is home to a brand new breakfast and brunch spot. The Roost, named after Manda Jolly's family farm in Phillips County. The Roost is located between Ninth and Tenth on Massachusetts Street, next to Jimmy John's. They are open Monday through Saturday from 7 a.m. to 4 p.m. and Sundays from 7 a.m. to 2 p.m.
The Roost Located at 920 Massachusetts St., serves breakfast, brunch, and an array of colorful cocktails to customers.
A bright and lively environment welcomes visitors to The Roost upon entering.
"We welcome a new breed of breakfast, a more mobile crowd," Pingleton said. The tables are consistently packed, so staff suggests getting there early to avoid a long wait, which can stretch from 45 to 90 minutes.
"Every type of person comes through this door." Manda Jolly said. The Roost hosts a range of customers, from college students to families and out-of-towners.
The restaurant's environment has a down-to-earth feel with surprising food and drink combinations. After just one taste, it's obvious
the meal is fresh. Top breakfast suggestions are the Tomato + Avocado Benny, the Potato Pancakes and the Biscuits & Gravy.
To drink, Pingleton and Manda Jolly recommend the NoLaw Bloody Mary or the Perfect Tomato for those who are 21 and older. The NoLaw Bloody Mary is named after the many ingredients that come from North Lawrence. For coffee lovers, the mocha is the way to go.
The coffee is a bit pricey, clocking in at $3.00 for a small mocha, which isn't much cheaper than

Starbucks' drinks. Cocktails are a little pricier — the NoLaw costs $6 and the Perfect Tomato costs $7. As for sandwiches, a Tomato + Avocado Benny won't cost you more than $8.50.
for college students, but the food was good enough to make up for it;" Trey Scallions, a junior from Girard, said.
"Prices were maybe a little high
The Roost stands out against other breakfast spots because of their quality ingredients and unique dining environment, which balances between industrial and country, as well as the full bar. The Roost wants to bring people back to a time where breakfast was paired with a cocktail.
"We love mornings, we love breakfast, we love coffee, we love pastries." Manda jolly said. "We wanted to add cocktails."
Overall, The Roost provides a unique dining environment balanced between country and industrial. Having a new breakfast and brunch spot in the heart of Lawrence adds a rice change of pace to the city. Early birds can enjoy a cup of coffee and delicious pastry on the way to class, and for breakfast lovers or people looking for a new place to try. The Roost is definitely your go-to spot.

On Aug. 28, students are invited to explore the Spencer Museum of Art and participate in challenges during the Hawk Week Art Trek. This event will run from 5 p.m. to 8 p.m. and will include a scavenger hunt in the museum.
the work they see," coordinator Rebecca Blocksome said. "It brings in students from all walks of life, not just people who are interested in the historical perspective of the art."
The scavenger hunt will be conducted using a mobile app called SCVNGR, which will access the student's location and allow them to see which challenges are available in their area. These challenges will ask students to find certain pieces of art in the museum and submit a written response or a photograph to the app, depending on the challenge.
After the scavenger hunt, students on the Spencer Student Advisory Board and staff members from the Academic Programs Department will judge the submissions. Points will be awarded for each sent in, with extra points awarded for creativity. President of the Student Advisory Board Sandy Tickles said she hoped the scavenger hunt would bring more students to the museum.
"This event is great for students because it allows them to come to the Spencer Museum of Art and view the museum in a whole new light," Tickles said. Afterward, students will have the opportunity
to stay and watch the 1967 film "Bonnie and Clyde." Blocksome explained that this movie was chosen because it has a similar theme to this year's university common book, "The Worst Hard Time," by Timothy Egan. She hoped that students could use their knowledge from the book to connect with the film and their newest exhibit, Dust, which also centers around the Dust Bowler.
"We want to get people into the museum and make them feel relevant," Blocksome said. "People from all disciplines can see how they can use the museum in their studies and in their life. We want them to have fun."

Motown artists give thanks
ASSOCIATED PRESS
DETROIT — She didn't sing a note or write a lyric, but Smokey Robinson contends that Maxine Powell was as essential to Motown Records' operation as the legendary label's songwriters, producers and musicians.
Powell was in charge of the artists' personal development. And Robinson, a bard of the American romantic songbook and one of the chief architects of "the Motown sound," paid tribute to Powell on Monday night during an invitation-only event at the former Hitsville, U.S.A., studio in Detroit that now serves as the Motown Historical Museum.
"She was such an important, integral part of what we were doing here at Motown," said Robinson. Powell directed the label's
Artists Development Department, also known as "Motown's Finishing School." She guided many, including Robinson's Miracles, the Jackson Five and the Supremes.
She emphasized how artists should carry themselves, treat people and dress. Powell and Motown founder Berry Gordy Jr. joked that he still remembers many of Powell's aphorisms, including "Do not protrude the buttocks," and "Do not confuse me with your parents — they're stuck with you. I'm not."
"You had style," Gordy said. "You gave them class."
and retirement homes to develop poise and pride in students and residents. Reeves said.
Reeves remembered going through those lessons with her group, The Vandellas, alongside the Supremes and others.
Powell, who adamantly refuses to reveal her age but is well into her 90s, told the crowd that she "will teach until there's no breath left in my body."
"We thought we knew everything because we could sing and dance, but she taught us how to stand and how to carry ourselves," Reeves said. "She made a difference in all of our lives."
Moonlight
"I love all the Motown artists," she said. "This has been a blessing. I thank God for allowing me to be here."

St. Louis continues strong play in 6-1 win
ASSOCIATED PRESS
ST. LOUIS — Joe Kelly tossed six strong innings and Matt Holli-drove in a run for a seventh straight game, lifting the St. Louis Cardinals to a 6-1 win over the Cincinnati Reds on Tuesday night.
St. Louis has won six of its last seven, including the first two games of this three-game set. The first-place Cardinals have won eight of their last 10 against the third-place Reds and lead them by $4\frac{1}{2}$ games in the NL Central. The Cards also moved $1 \frac{1}{2}$ games ahead of second-place Pittsburgh, which lost to Milwaukee.
Shin-soo Choo homered for Cincinnati, which lost for the fourth
time in five games. The Cardinals retired the last 13 Cincinnati batters, dropping the Reds to 4-10 against St. Louis this season.
Kelly (6-3), who allowed one run on nine hits, improved to 6-0 in nine starts since rejoining the starting rotation on July 6. The Cardinals have won the last six games he has started. Kelly began the season in the bullpen.
Holliday, who went 2 for 3; keyed a two-run outburst in the first against Mat Latos (13-5), who gave up four runs on nine hits over six innings. He struck out four and did not walk a batter.
Arizona slugger Paul Gold-
schmidt had an eight-game RBI streak in early June — a season
best in MLB.
The Cardinals needed just 14 pitches to take a 2-0 lead. Matt Carpenter and Carlos Beltran began the opening frame with singles. Holliday followed with a hit to right to bring in Carpenter, who scored his major league-leading 100th run. Allen Craig then hit into a double play, allowing Beltran to score from third.
Choo brought the Reds to 2-1 with a leadoff homer in the fifth, the 100th round-tripper of his career and 17th of the season.
The Cardinals answered with single runs in the sixth and seventh and scored twice in the eighth.
Craig pushed the lead to 3-1 with his team-leading 96th RBI on a

OFFENSIVE BREAKDOWN
New players Jake Heaps and Justin McCay heighten anticipation for 2013 season
MAX GOODWIN
mgoodwin@kansan.com
Quarterbacks Charlie Weis has said that Jake Heaps, a transfer from Brigham Young University and five-star recruit, has been the hands-down favorite to quarterback the 2013 Kansas Jayhawks. While there is an immense amount of pressure on Heaps, he certainly has weapons around him. After his flight from BYU starting quarterback to losing the job and transferring to a school that wasn't in the picture in the beginning, Heaps takes on a new task. Revamping a desolate program with his image and his play. Before the season took off, he showed everything you want from a quarterback. We will make sure that this guy is who everyone says he is when he plants his foot on Kivisto Field on Sept. 7.
Running Backs
The one sure thing in this Kansas team? You pretty much know what you're going to get. You're going to get a running back in James Sims — one who looks better. growing each year he's been here. You're going to get one of the fastest running backs in the Big 12 Conference in Darrian Miller, who once battled Sims for the starting running back slot. After getting into some trouble, Miller is eager for a second chance. He will play the flanker position, also known as slot wide receiver, which is integrating into the offense this season. Two talented backs, Tony Pierson and Brandon Bourbon, look to guide Heaps and fill the "F" position. Pierson, who piled up more than 700 yards, is one of the premier talents. Now, thanks to a quarterback with a better grasp, Pierson can only improve. Now, spreading this talent will create some security for Heaps, who honestly needs as much as possible.
Wide Receivers/Tight ends
This position is one with major potential, but also many uncertainties. Receivers can be tough to judge and many fail. However, but many also prosper. The conversion rate is about 50/50. So when you look at the Kansas wide receiver corps, you see talent with heavy potential. Christian Matthews, a senior wide receiver, has had a good camp. Justin McCay, local product and five-star recruit, never clicked with the University of Oklahoma. Josh Ford could be a potential star pick. Coaches seemed to see his potential as a receiver during camp. Rodriquez Coleman and Tre Parmalee have breakaway speed,
KU
but have yet to position themselves into the starting lineup. Perhaps the biggest weapon that could emerge from the receiving corps and develop winning team chemistry is tight end Jimmy Mundine. The tight end group is arguably better than the wide receiver position. This could be seen through Heaps' reliance on Mundine and junior tight end Trent Smiley, who played all 12 games and started three games at the "F" position.
Offensive Linemen -
Maybe the most essential positions on the roster are those that will help protect Heaps this season. The experienced bodies on the Kansas line show potential, but there are also new faces. Pat Lewandowski, who has switched positions from

defensive line to offensive linemen (center) had some trouble adjusting to the new experience at first, but has adjusted well, as coaches attest. Aslam Sterling—who went through a 75-pound weight loss metamorphosis—and Riley Spencer are the only two returnees this season. However, this group is full of junior college talent, including the likes of current starters Mike Smithburg and Ngalu Fusimalohi. Weis has talked about how this unit has second-stringers that can easily become starters. This is obvious by just glancing at the depth chart that includes junior college recruits like Pearce Slater and returning backups in Dylan Admire.
This group can easily surpass expectations if every team member cooperates and strives for success. If they do, this can become a competent offense—especially in regards to last year.
This offense has more depth than last season and while it's full of fresh faces, it has promising prospects that just weren't evident last year. Even if things don't go as planned for Heaps, the offensive linemen have one of the most loaded positions in the Big 12, and that fact alone will push them to a few extra wins.

THE MORNING BREW Jayhawks lean on new quarterback
B
Bad quarterback play often comes with the territory on a 1-11 football team, but the 2012 Kansas football
team was especially challenged when it came to passing and catching a football—historically challenged.
New quarterback Jake Heaps has the potential to be the player that can get Kansas over that hump and end the bowless, winless conference play drought. He was heavily recruited out of high school and rated the top quarterback in his class. He led his high school team to three state titles in Washington, so he knows how to win. However, he has to battle a jawhawk football history filled with losses.

Last fail, the lajahwacks were led by the worst ranking quarterback in passer efficiency rating. In ten games, Dayne Crist completed passes at a piturid 47.7 percent, averaging 6.1 yards per attempt with 4 touchdowns and 9 interceptions.
Michael Cummings played the rest of the minutes last year and wasn't much better. In fact, most football junkies would agree that, statistically at least, the numbers he put up were worse than Dayne Crist's
historically awful season.
Cummings completed 45.7 percent of his passes and threw three touchdowns and four interceptions. He averaged a feeble 4.9 yards per attempt, but kept the team in more games with his running ability.
Coach Charlie Weis is known throughout the ranks as one of the best X's and O's guys in football, and quarterbacks, in particular, are his specialty. Needless to say, in year two of the Charlie Weis experiment, it's time to win some games—as Fred the Baker would say, "It's time to make the donuts." And that all starts with better quarterback play. James Sims, Tony Pierson and the rest of the running backs can no longer be the only donut makers on the offense. With all this pressure on his shoulders, Heaps has got to perform well.
If you haven't heard, Kansas can run the football a little bit. They ranked third in the Big 12 in rushing and 22nd in the nation. But in a quarterback-driven league like the Big 12, bowl appearances tend to hang on the balance with quarterback play. If you have a quarterback, you'll probably make a bowl. If you don't have a quarterback, you probably won't.
KU
As a freshman at Brigham Young University, Heaps completed 57 percent of his passes for 2,316 yards, 15 touchdowns and 9 interceptions. He lead the Cougars to a bowl game that year—the first time in 29 bowl appearances that a freshman quarterback had done so at the school.
In 2011, however, Heaps struggled to improve. His passer rating plateaued at 57 percent and his touchdown to interception ratio was less impressive at 9:8. He eventually lost the job to Riley Nelson during the
omore slump" was just an aberration and the real Jake Heaps is more like his freshman self. He won in high school and a little at the collegiate level, so the potential is definitely there. The question is, "Will Heaps play like he did in his freshman year, or like he did in his sophomore year?" And, "Can he win in the Big 12?"
We'll start to get our answers in the coming weeks. If Kansas wants to win, Heaps had better be serviceable at the very least. If Kansas wants to be great, it's all in his hands. Here's hoping Heaps can make some good donuts.

so what exactly is club baseball?
The University of Kansas Club Baseball team is getting ready to start its season, but first it is looking for new members. The team will be having an informational meeting Thursday,

Club baseball was founded in 2000 at Penn State with 34 teams in the league. As of the 2009 season, the league featured 170 teams competing at two division levels, Di and Dil. It's governed by the National Club Baseball Association (NCBA), which has 25 regions. The Jayhawks compete as members of the Mid-America South region, a conference that includes teams from the University of Nebraska, Kansas State University and the University of Missouri.
is jam packed, including a couple road trips. I'm pretty excited," second baseman, fourth year team member and Club President Josh Clement said.
At the University of Kansas, the club baseball team is a group of highly dedicated and highly skilled players who are committed to not only being competitive and getting better, but also to committing time and effort toward fundraising for the team.
The team has achieved national rankings in past seasons, peaking as the No.18 best collegiate club baseball team in the nation, and they're looking to return to that caliber of play. They have their sights set on the ultimate goal, the World Series in Tampa Bay, Fla.
Contact Club President Josh Clement with any questions via email at jclement90@ku.edu and more information on the team and the NCBA in general can be found at www.clubbaseball.org.

COMMENTARY Jayhawk football fights back
By Mike Vernon
mvernon@kansan.com
PIGSKIN SATURDAYS
I Big 12 Conference offenses have been cheating, Kansas has been honest — and failing
failing.
This year the Jayhawks are cheating back. Kansas football team wants to go fast.
wants to get there Much faster than the year before. And this isn't about the offense.
This is about defense. This is about communicating and adjusting. And this is about learning how to compete in a league where offenses snap the ball faster than anywhere else.
anywhere. Cc. Kansas defensive coordinator Dave Campo spent 22 years in the NFL before returning to the college game to coach the Jayhawks. Campo quickly learned he's coaching in a whole new, much faster football world.
"The game of football isn't football," Campo said, "it's fast break offensives."
"You have to be ready to cheat right along with them."
Edited by Chas Strobel
During training camp, Kansas focused on learning how to handle those offenses. One of the drills the Jayhawks have added involves the defense facing two separate offensive units. One of the units is huddling, preparing for the next play, while the other unit is on the field.
The goal: After one play, the next huddle is already sprinting out to snap the ball, typically within 10 to 12 seconds.
If the opponent is cheating. Campo said there's only one thing to do.
Three Big 12 schools finished last season with more than 1,000 plays last season: West Virginia, Oklahoma and Baylor. Another Kansas opponent, Rice, clipped the 1,000 snap mark as well.
"It's just rapid fire," Campo said. "I think that's going to help us immeasurably."
The Jayhawks were often left scrambling to get back to their positions after plays last year, and when a defense is scrambling, coverage often fails. Kansas allowed 6.78 vards per play last season.
The Jayhawks use the extreme methods to make sure their defense is fully prepared to face offenses that have a goal of snapping the ball as quickly as possible.
Campo said the most telling flaw he saw watching last season's film was the tendency to allow the home-run play — especially in the fourth quarter. The most obvious example: Kansas had Texas beat last season until Longhorns quarterback Case McCoy threw a 39-yard pass to the three-yard line with a little more than one minutes left. Texas scored three plays later to take the 21-17 lead they would soon win with.
"In the fourth quarter of games, if the game was on the line, I feel like we were tired." Campo said. "I feel like we weren't mentally tough enough. That comes from the way you practice."
Jayhawks win a Big 12 football game.
In theory, this new system all of this practice, will help the Jayhawks limit the big plays. It will help the defense feel comfortable in the hectic situations they're sure to face. It will help the
Junior tight end Jimmay Mundine leaves Memorial Stadium unhappy after the Jayhawks' 2011 47-17 loss at the hand of the Oklahoma Sooners. Kansas coaches are expecting more from Mundine this season.

Kansas fans get a first look at the Jayhawk football team shaping up for the fall 2013 season
MAX GOODWIN
mggoodwin@kansan.com
The first chance Kansas fans had to witness their football team take shape was Aug. 17th during the annual Fan Appreciation Day at the University.
Many came to see Tony Pierson playing in the slot and looking for more open field opportunities. Others came to see Justin McCay and Jake Heaps prepare for their official debuts.
McCay had an underwhelming day catching a couple passes while Pierson stayed on the sidelines wearing a visor and no pads throughout the 100-play scrimmage.
On the first drive of the scrimmage tight end Jimmay Mundine, ran smoothly down the middle of the field and cut to the right before Heaps laid a pass right into his hands 20 yards past the line of scrimmage. Mundine caught the ball in stride and ran 29 yards
into the end zone.
"I'm expecting big things from Jimmy this year," tight ends coach Jeff Blasko said.
Mundine knows his strength and his weakness. Mundine is undersized as a tight end, at 6 feet 2 inches and 240 pounds, which is largely why he is a better receiver than blocker.

still, he's made some dramatic improvements in blocking. Mundine said he has learned that he doesn't have to maul opposing players downfield to block them, he just has to focus on the fundamentals and get in the way.
"Right now, Jimmay is number one." Blasko said, "clearly number one, and the rest of the guys are jumbled up."
"I know it's the weakest point in my game," Mundine said, "but it's definitely improved times ten since last season, and even since spring ball. I just have to continue to shoot my hands and move my feet and get myself in good position."
JEFF BLASKO Tight end coach
I'm expecting big things from Jimmay this year."
Kansas strength coach Scott Holsopple has led a transformation in the condition of the team. He keeps track of every lift each Jayhawk does to analyze it with the player over the course of the workouts, and reported to Blasko that the tight ends were among
the hardest working of any position group.
"I think I made the comment in spring that he was in as good of shape as he's been since I've been here," Blasko said. "And he's even in better shape now after the summer workouts."
Mundine has worked as hard as anyone and is ready to perform.
Last season was a part of a learning process for Mundine as a sophomore. Playing against the best teams in the Big 12 Conference, he gained confidence and showed improvement throughout the season.
"The biggest thing with Immay is he got some in-game experience last year," Blasko said, "which makes him feel more
The biggest indicator that Mundine is poised for a breakout season is that he's now comfortable with the pro-style offense of Charlie Weis, an offense that is known for getting the tight end involved.
comfortable out there. It allows him to play faster."
A fast player is one that's not second guessing, which means the player understands what he's supposed to do in each situation on the field.
Mundine is playing fast going into the second year under Wels. Blasko said he's seen a difference in the way all of the tight ends have played after a year of experience.
"They know the language, they know how we go about installation, everything is familiar to them," Blasko said. "Obviously, when you go through something for the second time it's easier. It's very noticeable that our guys are playing faster."

DIVE IN
GREENBORO, MASS., AUG. 21, 1974 — A swimmer dives into the pool during a high school swim meet at Greenboro High School on August 21, 1974.
FILE PHOTO/KANSAN
Swimmers from Kansas and Arkansas in the 200-yard Breastroke dive into the pool at a Feb. 2 meet against Arkansas inside Robinson Natatorium. Two Arkansas swimmers broke two pool records during the meet against Kansas.
When the Kansas swimming and diving team starts training next week, the team's incoming freshmen will make a big difference in the pool. With 11 newcomers and the loss of eight seniors from last season, this team is very different from last year's squad that finished 6-4 in dual meets and 2-0 in Big 12 dual meets.
Large freshman class expected to improve culture, performance of swimming team
The new additions to the team are talented, according to Campbell, but also integral to changing the team culture. He is expecting the energy from the freshman class to help with that.
"We are a very young, dynamic team this year," coach Clark Campbell said.
while the entire freshman class comes with experience, one player stands out for her pre-college achievements. Freshman Yulduz Kuchkarova is the first Kansas swimmer to join the team after competing in the Olympics.
1
With the combination of young athletes and senior leadership, Campbell would like the team to be one of the top two in the Big 12 conference this year. Campbell also expects anywhere from two to six players to qualify for NCAA Championships. However, Campbell stressed that the team's main goal was the same year after year.
While about half the team is brand new, Campbell expects the seven returning seniors to have an impact this season.
"They will definitely be key components athletically and each performs very well their event," Campbell said. "But they are all also tremendous leaders outside of the pool."
"We want to maximize the potential in every girl," Campbell said. "That is part of our team mission, to get the most out of every player."
The Jayhawks have an intrasquat at home on Oct. 3 and the first meet is in Colorado Springs, Colo., on Oct. 12.

President Obama ties speech to economy
JENNIFER SALVA
isalya@kansan.com
President Obama spoke from the steps of the Lincoln Memorial Wednesday during the 50th anniversary ceremonies for the March on Washington.
Speaking from the same spot that Dr. Martin Luther King Junior stood while delivering his historic "I Have a Dream" speech, President Obama recalled the thousands of men and women of all ages, black and white alike, who came from across the country to demonstrate their desire for fairness and equality.
On August 28, 1963, Americans
"Because they marched," President Obama said, "America became more free and more fair, not just for African-Americans but for women and Latinos, Asians and Native Americans, for Catholics, Jews and Muslims, for gays, for Americans with disabilities."
Many of these individuals had attended segregated schools, lived in towns in which they could not vote, or had seen friends and family beaten and abused, President Obama said.
President Obama said the measure of progress since the original March on Washington depended on "whether this country would admit all people who were willing to work hard, regardless of race, into the ranks of a middle-class life."
seeking jobs and justice gathered at the National Mall in Washington, D.C. for a political assembly called the March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom.
Because the economy has changed since 1963, this progress hasn't been and won't be easy, President Obama said.
"The twin forces of technology and global competition have subtracted those jobs that once provided a foothold into the middle class, and reduced the bargaining power of American workers," President Obama said.
"And I would respectfully suggest that Martin Luther King did not live and die to hear his heirs whine about political gridlock," President Clinton said.
Dr. Martin Luther King Junior's son, Martin Luther King III, spoke about realizing his father's message.
Former President Bill Clinton also spoke at the event, and said Americans no longer face inequality and abuse for their political beliefs anymore.
sage:
"We've got a lot of work to do, but none of us should be any ways tired," King said. "You see, no one ever told any of us that our roads would be easy, but I know our
God, our God, our God did not bring any of us this far to leave us President Obama said there is still progress to be made.
"We might not face the same dangers as 1963," President Obama said, "but the fierce urgency of now remains. We may never duplicate the swelling crowds and dazzling processions of that day so long ago, no one can match King's brilliance, but the same flames that lit the heart of all who are willing to take a first step for justice. I know that flame remains."

University professor Dennis Sander designed and built a model of a Lamborghini museum to potentially be built in Italy. Sander will travel to Italy again in October to discuss financial approval of his design.
A few square miles of land between the cities of Bologna and Modena, will potentially house a new corporate office and museum for Lamborghini in the next decade.
The reflecting pool in front of the three-story glass walls will turn the nine pristine Lamborghinis on display into 18. The corporate gray granite walls will aim to embody the luxury of the product the company produces.
Millions of people will eventually visit the museum in Italy to marvel at the cars. But as Erika Sander, a junior from Lawrence, looks from the 12-foot model to her father, Dennis Sander, the architect behind the project and a professor at the University, it's neither the building nor the cars that she stands in awe of.
"I think he's the most talented person ever," Erika said. "I think he is amazing."
When Erika was in eighth grade, her father took her out of school for a 32-day excursion in Europe while he presented his
museum design for the popular European racing circuit Le Mans to a consortium of European car manufacturers. Ninth on the list was Lamborghini.
After his presentation, the vice president for corporate image approached Sander and asked if he would do something similar for him. He wanted a singular, corporate image.
"It's almost like he wrote out what he wanted for dinner," Sander said.
After the grandeur of the Le Mans project, Erika wasn't surprised by Lamborghin's offer
Sander started the project in 2010. By 2012, he and Erika were back in Sant'agata Bolognese. She listened on as the museum director called her father a "genius" and asked him not to change it.
"I've been doing this for over 50 years, and usually when I call the shot it's pretty close to home," Sander said.
Sander knew when he was 10 that he wanted to be an architect. Growing up, he devoted eight hours each Saturday to the Carnegie-Mellon Institute of Technology's grade-school program
learning architecture's sister arts.
In sixth grade, Sander was featured on TV for winning a contest. The host asked him what he wanted to be when he grew up. Sander replied that without a doubt he would be an architect.
"I also said that, 'but I want to
"It obviously takes up a lot of his time and he's constantly working on different projects."

design and make some bowling alleys because I understand that architects don't make much money" he said.
Sander said he has been blessed to have seen roughly 150 of his designs manifest into buildings.
And his daughter has been with him every step of the way for the past 20 years.
"It obviously takes up a lot of his time and he's constantly working
on different projects and things as long as I've been alive" Erika said. "His projects have always been a big part of my life."
When the two travel in Europe, they always visit Paris because it's Erika's favorite place. At the end of the hectic Le Mans trip, they rested for four days in the city.
Sander said they have a routine: visit the Sacre Coeur, Eiffel Tower, Notre Dame, the Opera House and the Louvre, and they always walk down the Champs-Elysees at least six times.
"At the end of every trip we do Paris," Sander said.
“It’s always just us.” Erika added. Last March, the pair journeyed to Europe again to show the museum director the final plans.
"She said, 'I knew you would do this. I knew you would do it like this.' It made me really choked up," Sander said. "She says, 'You have a passion for this. I know that passion. I've seen that passion. Our designers have that passion."
It was one of those times in Sander's career that he truly felt blessed.
that you call cars, they're works of art," he said.
"I said, 'Look who I'm designing for. Those miraculous art objects'
The buildings her father designed have always had a presence in Erika's life. At two years old, she visited his aquarium in Mexico. More recently, she spotted a parking garage that he designed in "The Dark Knight Rises"
"It blows my mind how he could come up with that. He's so creative," Erika said. "I didn't get any of the creativity."
"Oh, yes you did," her father replied.
Sander will travel once more to Italy in October to discuss financial approval of his design. To see his model become a reality would be a culmination of being consumed with his project, of 18-hour weekend workdays and carefully taking more than 230 iPhone photographs of his model. It would be one of the proudest moments of his daughter's life
"I pray that I will be able to see this one day." Erika said.
"Me too." Sander said, "me too."

POP CULTURE
People should stop caring about Miley Cyrus
The first step is admitting you have a problem. Which can be a bit tricky if you, like myself and most other Americans of our generation, are unaware of that problem. Our problem is simply this: we care about Miley Cyrus.
Don't worry, I'm not suggesting that you're an avid fan or that you drift off to sleep every night, swaddled in Hannah Montana bedding. I'm not even going so far as to imply that you have any sort of carefully developed opinion on her, besides your sight guilt associated with singing along to (and thoroughly enjoying) "Party in the USA."
What I'm referring to is the fact that whether or not you pored over an issue of People magazine, chances are you know who Billy Ray Cyrus is and you've heard or read a recent review of Miley's somewhat less than graceful VMAs performance. Chances are, you know at least a little about
Tom Cruise's religious antics, Lady Gaga's meat wardrobe or Kanye West's timeless, innovative baby-name choice as well. It's not your fault you have a mental corner dedicated to this stockpile of flimsy trivia—media outlets slam us from every angle with formulaic, manufactured "scandal." Why are we so shocked when a person paid millions of dollars to be outrageous does something... outrageous? Why do we allow ourselves to form strong opinions on the most recent Disney star smoking a joint in Hawaii?
smoking a joint.
Perhaps because in an era of 140-character news stories and more animated gifs than words, it's much easier and more satisfying to digest "Miley Shaves Head and Twerks on a Giant Stuffed Bear" or "Gwyneth Paltrow Swears By Diet Entirely Composed of Leaves" than "Syrian Chemical Warfare Kills Over 1,300," or "California Wildfire Fighting Funds

Exhausted." One requires ten seconds of attention and provides an amused chuckle or eye-roll, the other calls for close reading, background knowledge and the perspective to conceptualize the horror and tragedy that exists in our world but seems too distant to fully grasp. Instead we kill free moments between class by eating up empty and glossy headlines out of convenience; if nothing more. They're targeted at us, after all—the supposed throng of young adults "dying" to know more about Ke$ha's grills and Ryan Gosling's abs, the generation that doesn't know what NASDAQ stands for and that bases most of its political opinions off of SNL sketches. This shallow stereotype of our generation, this imbalanced investment of energy into petty fluff, is our problem.
If the first step is admitting we have a problem, the second (or maybe third or seventh...I'm not up on psychological theory) is figuring out how to fix that problem. The pervasive media stream of Beyonce haircut updates and North West's first steps will never cease to exist, nor should it. Viral memes of Angelina Jolie's leg and TV shows dedicated to RGIII stretching out his ACL have their place in society, much like Ben & Jerry's has a place in my freezer. What's crucial is balance—we cannot be taken seriously as a healthy and enriched generation if we subsist on pints of Real-Housewives-of-Jersey-Shore's Pretty-Little-Liars. It is in our power to educate ourselves and become passionate about our communities. How? Just once, trade your Cosmo or Sports Illustrated for Time magazine. Tap into the centuries of brilliantly crafted literature at your disposal (for free) at the library—challenge
yourself beyond the realm of 50 Shades of Grey. Pick a world news story you've heard mentioned in passing and go digging until you understand the issues; read multiple opinions and perspectives. Take a break from social media—spend time building relationships instead of documenting them. Get involved: join an organization that turns words into action and aims to better not "the" community, but your community. Invest your time and energy into fewer screens and more pages, fewer pictures and more conversations. And then, do your duty as a well-rounded citizen. If you still have a spare moment, go ahead and check out that video of Miley on the VMAs. It just might spark up a conversation or two.

ENVIRONMENT
Environmental injustice goes unnoticed in poor community
I was driving through the flat monotony of Cherokee County, Kansas when the mountains of Treece - a city on the Oklahoma border - jutted into sight. I questioned whether "Carmen the Garmin" had unwittingly taken me to Colorado... or maybe the moon. A small sign welcoming me to Treece confirmed my destination. I had arrived in the town a mile north of the notorious Environmental Protection Agency Tar Creek Superfund site—an area where toxic waste has been dumped and the EPA has been charged with its removal. Although Treece is not included within the boundaries of the Superfund site, the Kansas and Federal governments have agreed that the area is impacted by the same environmental concerns.
I drove through the town surveying the huge piles of fine rock that I had mistaken for mountains. It turns out the towering mounds are made out of chat – the gravelly byproduct of lead, zinc and iron ore mining, which made Treece a successful mining town during the first and second World Wars. Today, piles of chat standing hundreds of feet high cast shadows over the skeleton of Treece. When I visited in 2009, The Tar Creek Mining Company and its many mines had been closed for years. The gravelly "mountains" contain high levels of heavy metals, enough to contaminate the water, air and land. As time passed, 33 percent of children in the area were discovered to have unsafe blood-lead levels. The local Tar Creek ran orange from underground trace minerals that had seeped into ground water from unmaintained mining shafts, not to mention the ground in Trece is literally caving in. Because the mines were abandoned after operations ended and many mine locations were never documented, the earth will topple in on itself, leaving residents and visitors with the unsettling knowledge that the ground they stand on could collapse at any minute.
By Gabby Murnan gmurnan@kansan.com
So is Treece just another abandoned city of the 20th Century mining boom or is there a larger story at play here? I tend to believe the latter. Treece is a perfect example of how environmental injustices can be directly linked to poverty. The Tar Creek area was designated as a Superfund site in 1983, yet the Kansas Department of Health and Environment didn't offer a voluntary relocation program for citizens until 2011—almost three decades later. This clearly indicates that the families of Trece, the majority of whom earn around 35 percent less than the Kansas median income, were not a top priority for the Kansas government. The lack of concern shown by the government for 28 years could be attributed to the fact that 15.4 percent of Cherokee County residents live below the poverty level. It wasn't hard for
the Tar Creek Mining Company to have its way with the land then leave the earth and its residents nursing its wounds; just like it wasn't difficult for the state legislature to ignore the plight of a few hundred people in the sparsely populated, impoverished southern part of the state. When it comes to issues of the environment, the negative impact is only deemed a priority if the victimized person or community is economically important.
I believe there is a lesson to be learned from the city of Treece: all people, regardless of socio-economic status, have a right to a safe, healthy and sustainable living environment. Perhaps if the government had offered a buyout plan to Treece citizens 28 years ago, the safety of many people could have been preserved. No one should have their health and their family's health taken away for decades simply because they cannot afford to live somewhere where the wind doesn't carry lead and the ground doesn't cave in. And no city should have its environmental issues ignored simply because of its low population and/or poor economic status. Sometimes it takes a weekend trip to a tiny town in the middle of nowhere to remind us that environmental injustice isn't just a topic for movies - it's just a few miles down 69 Highway.

Boycotting Russian Olympics wrong solution
Human rights violations are par for the course of the former Soviet state, but the recent draconian crackdown on LGBT citizens in Russia has put the spotlight on a new form of retribution: boycoting the 2014 Winter Olympics. While Russia's treatment of its LGBT population is truly condemnable, boycoting the Olympics is simply the wrong solution.
Remember when there were calls to boycott the 2008 Chinese Olympics because the government authorized the killing of thousands of stray dogs and cats in preparation for the games? Probably not. This is just one example of a hyper-specific pretext for boycott. The more universal objection to China's games was it's atrocious human rights record, and even that failed to produce a ground-breaking boycotts. This is the first reason why boycotts fail: they are often too narrow to attract a groundwell of support.
While the LGBT rights movement is far larger by comparison (and has gained momentum as a result of recent SCOTUS rulings), it doesn't garner enough sympathy. People who are not personally persecuted by Russia's LGBT laws don't feel it a big enough reason to give up their chance at the gold.
US athletes have proposed that they show support by competing while sporting rainbow flags and other propaganda (even though that violates IOC charter rule 50 against propaganda). But when the choice boils down to the rights of the minority over their own chance at glory, the answer becomes obvious. Athletes who have been training for 20 years don't want to take a back seat because they don't agree with the policies of the host government. While their hearts may be in the right
place, they will only take a stand from a safe distance.
So what is the apt approach to Russia's LGBT policies? Boycott Russia from their own Olympics. The IOC has the power to make this happen – and it has used it before. Cyd Ziegler from the Huffington Post pointed out that The IOC banned South Africa from the 1964 Olympics because of the Apartheid. Rhodesia was banned from 1972 games because of racist anti-black policies, and Afghanistan was banned in 2000 because of human rights violations against women imposed by the Taliban. All of these bans were enforced under the same justification: A fundamental disregard for human rights in the banned nations. It's about time the IOC demanded that respect for human dignity be extended to homosexuals as well, or Russia can sit this one out.
Diplomatic relations between Russia and the U.S. could be described as prickly at best. The Snowden scandal and Obama's cancellation of a summit meeting with Russia has added to the hot core of animosity between the two nations. Additionally, Obama has stated in reference to Russia that he will not tolerate any discrimination against LGBT people. At this point, a boycott seems woefully inappropriate, as evidenced by Putin's disinterest in Obama's attempts to strong-arm his country.

Blogging websites such as Tumbril and WordPress allow students to express opinions and connect with like-minded individuals. Although tweets and Facebook statuses are easier to share, blog posts have no character limit.
Student blogs become safe havens for opinions
MEGHAN KETCHAM
mketcham@kansan.com
Between homework and writing papers, many students groan at the thought of writing for fun. However, some students dedicate extra time in their schedules to blogging. Whether they write about their daily lives or a particular topic, blogging gives students a platform to voice their opinions.
Even though tweets and Facebook statuses are seemingly easier ways to share thoughts, blogging appears to enrich both the writer and the reader in comparison to the snap opinions often seen on social media. Unlike a tweet, students can share their opinions without restriction of a word limit.
Liran Ziegelman, a freshman from Overland Park, said blogging allows her to voice her opinions about equal rights for minorities
in an environment more tolerable and accepting to her thoughts.
"I think that it is important to blog because it is a safe way to get your opinion out," she said. "Living in a mostly red state, it's a place where I can find people to understand what I'm going through and
to sympathize."
Finding an audience remains important to bloggers who want to send a message to readers. Jordan McEntee, a sophomore from Overland Park, shares her blog about youth ministry through her
in my life through youth ministry," she said. "Then I realized that other people might be able to connect with my stories, so I started putting my blog posts out on Facebook, sow I could try to impact people's lives, even if it's just in a small way."

Downtown Final Fridays showcase local art, history
KRISTINA MAUDE
kmaude@kansan.com
On the last Friday of the month, the streets of downtown Lawrence are filled with artists, musicians and Lawrence residents coming to celebrate the month's Final Friday.
It's not just for art walking, it's also for eating great food and
getting people downtown who might otherwise go out of town on the weekend." Meredith Moore, curator for the Wonder Fair art gallery, said.
Each month features new artists and brings something new and exciting to Lawrence. This month is no exception.
r
month is no exception.
"It's not just for art walking, it's also for eating great food and getting people downtown who might otherwise go out of town on the weekend."
The group featured this month at Wonder Fair, located at 803 1/2 Massachusetts St. above The Burger Stand, is Tugboat Printshop, a print making company from Pittsburgh, has come all the way to Lawrence to participate this month.
Moore said that Tugboat Print-shop is the most well-known print-making studio in America.
"They don't usually do gallery shows, but they're making an exception to come to Lawrence this month," she said.
Wonder Fair isn't the only store participating. Scott Lloyd, Final Fridays coordinator for Au Marche, said their featured artist this month will be Emalee Schaumburg.
Schaumburg, a photographer from Lawrence, is displaying her
work at two locations.
"She'll have three pictures here and then she has an event in North Lawrence at her studio," Lloyd said. "It will all be circus themed. There will be cotton candy and fire-breathing and things like that." Final Fridays typically attract those who are interested in art and culture. This month, historical enthusiasts can feel at home at Final Fridays as well. Abby Magariel, education and programs coordinator for Watkins Community Museum, said that Watkins and The Percolator, another local art gallery, are working together on a project to

commemorate the 150th anniversary of Quantrill's Raid.
"We came up with a list of questions to pose to artists around Lawrence and the surrounding area," Magariel said. "This is a serious day in Lawrence's history, but it is also the event that Lawrence recovered from and built from, so we wanted to think about what that means to local residents today."
Quilts, paintings and poems embody the sadness for lives lost, a love of Lawrence and a passion for the Kansas-Missouri border war.
Students and residents can mingle downtown to look at art, get some deals at local stores and listen to entertainment this Friday.

campus-wide initiative to universalize the design of university services and programs online. The site has been in the works since early March of this year and the final tweaks are currently being made.
The University Career Center has launched a new and improved website that boasts a large number of new features. Students attempting to visit the site at the URL kucarehawk.com will find that the site has moved to career.ku.edu.

"We hope to provide students with comprehensive web resources that are available 24/7 and compliment the face-to-face services we provide," said Erin Wollfram, assistant director of the UCC and head designer of the new website.
The new services will include an online appointment system through which students can schedule meetings. Students can also find job and internship listings that are directly related to their respective majors. Through the Careers and KU Majors page, students find listings that are updated in real

-to-date listings.
Once students find a listing, they will be able to practice their interview skills in the new mock interview program called "Impress." With this program, students can participate in practice interviews and get feedback on their results from a professional at the career center.

WHO SAYS KANSAS ISN’T BEAUTIFUL?
Americans voted Kansas ‘Worst Scenery’ out of all 50 states in a recent Business Insider poll
Although Kansas lacks the mountains and forests of Colorado, geography graduate student Emily Fekete believes people's perceptions of beautiful scenery are subjective and often affected by media portrayals.
KAITLYN KLEIN

It may not be the rudest or have the ugliest residents, but Kansas has the worst scenery, according to 1,603 Americans polled by Business Insider.
The poll asked questions such as: Which state has the weirdest accent? Which state has the smartest and dumbest people? In the survey, Kansas was
named the least beautiful in terms of scenery of all 50 states.

Emily Fekete, a geography graduate student from Rochester, N.Y., said she had a lot of problems with the poll, not unlike some of her colleagues and fellow geographers she follows on Twitter. From her background in human geography, Fekete said that many of the people surveyed may not have even been to Kansas, but rather answered

“In Geography we often talk about how people's ideas of places can potentially be more of a factor in what that place is like or how it is understood than the actual place itself,” she said.
Like many prospective out-of-state students, Thomas Clayton, a freshman from Plano, Texas, was surprised to find that Kansas wasn't just full of corn and flat.
barren land like he had imagined. Clayton said he encountered these perceptions when he told his friends from home that he was going to Kansas for college. "Go visit." Clayton said. "It'll change your mind and you'll probably fall in love with campus like I did."

"There used to be these big, blocky type of walls, and you couldn't really see anyone from any of the other organizations," Farris said. "Now, you don't have to go through a maze of cubicles just to see if anyone's there. If you're just in the Union stopping by, you could find someone to talk to pretty easily."

The Student Involvement and Leadership Center completed its makeover in time for the start of the fall semester. As part of its new look, the office now has desk areas and offices for student organizations instead of partitioned cubicles. It also has newly painted walls, new furniture, and more storage options.
The total cost of the renovations ended up at around $85,000, half of which was funded by Student Senate, and the other half by the KU Memorial Unions.
"The new space lends itself to more collaboration," Kring said. "Before, everybody was partitioned, and you didn't even know if anybody was in your area. We wanted an environment that was conducive for involvement, in the hope that people can see each

fries on Thursday might run into striking workers instead. Organizers say thousands of fast-food workers are set to stage walkouts in dozens of cities around the country, part of a push to get chains such as McDonald's, the Taco Bell and Wendy's to pay workers higher wages. It's expected be the largest nationwide strike by fast-food workers, according to organizers. The biggest effort so far was over the summer when about 2,200 of the nation's millions of fast-food workers staged
a one-day strike in seven cities.
a one-day strike in seven cities. Thursday's planned walkouts follow a series of strikes that began last November in New York City, then spread to cities including Chicago, Detroit and Seattle. Workers say they want $15 an hour, which would be about $31,000 a year for full-time employees. That's more than double the federal minimum wage, which many fast food workers make, of $7.25 an hour, or $15,000 a year. The move comes amid calls from the White House, some members of Congress and economists to hike the federal minimum wage, which was last raised in 2009. But most proposals seek a far more modest increase than the ones workers are asking for.

the push has brought considerable media attention to a staple of the fast-food industry — the so-called "McJobs" that are known for their low pay and limited prospects. But the workers taking part in the strikes still represent a tiny fraction of the broader industry. And it's not clear if the strikes on Thursday will shut down any restaurants because organizers made their plans public earlier in a call for workers around the country to participate, which gave managers time to adjust their staffing levels. More broadly, it's not clear how many customers are aware of the movement, with turnout for past strikes relatively low in some cities.

The Ghana Book Trust is a nonprofit that receives Books for Africa books regularly, and sells them for the absolute minimum to recover the shipping costs. Better World Books donates books to Books for Africa.
For every book purchased online from Better World, the company donates a book to someone in need. Better World Books also helps fund high-impact literacy projects around the world. If a library or bookstore donates a book that is unsaleable or unable to be donated then it is recycled to reduce landfill waste.

Better World Books has earned $26 million in revenue in the past 10 years. How did they do it? By having a compassionate mission. They describe themselves as a triple bottom-line company, saying that they "understand that profit is not the only way to measure business success."
They went to a local community center and, after convincing the center's director, were able to use the space to store the books that they sold and bought online. Six months later, they had raised over $10,000 collected and reselling books.
After having trouble selling back old textbooks to the campus bookstore the original founders took matters into their own hands.
"people," represented by the social impact of donating books and funds for literacy programs; "planet," represented by keeping books out of landfills (111 million books so far); and "profit," represented
by a desire to serve all stakeholders equally, which includes the community, environment, employees and their shareholders.
"In their company values they state, 'We strive to do the right thing at all times'. What type of company has that as their mission? No one," Michelle Brox, a sophomore from Overland Park, said. The company collects books from a network of more than 2,300 college campuses and has partnerships with over 3,000 libraries.
Better World Books also partners with four major non-profitso who receive funds and/or books. These partners include Books for Africa, National Center for Fam-
Literacy, Room to Read and World Fund, all of which help ill-literate children, families, or both.
When purchasing a book from betterworldbooks.com, prices are usually cheaper than most and include free shipping, but, carbon balanced shipping is optional. If customers choose this option, they pay a few more cents at checkout to

A ticker is located at the top of their website that allows visitors to witness progress as it happens. It includes a running count of books donated, funds raised for literacy and libraries, and the number of books reused or recycled.
"You can literally see the difference they are making on a minute-by-minute basis," Brox said.

this column?
I started writing when I had a personal sports blog and was contacted by the editor of soccernewsday.com. Soccer Newday gave me credentials to cover Sporting Kansas City games at Sporting Park.
What is your favorite part of being a columnist?
I'd say my favorite part is getting access to the stadium and being able to interview players and coaches. Also [I like] meeting a lot of great people that do the same thing as me.
It's important for students to blog because it offers a different perspective that some other mediums or ways of expressing yourself couldn't.

My blog is a mash-up of a multitude of fandoms and angry opinions.
What do you hope to accomplish with your blog?
At this point, I think that my blog is mostly for me rather than for everyone else. I don't expect my posts to be seen by a lot of people. I re-blog the stuff that I like. It's a comforting place and you meet people from all over the world.
I think that blogging serves as a way to develop another group of friends. It's a good way to find people who are interested in what you are also interested in. It keeps me connected to a lot of clever and talented people.

Why is blogging important?
Sophomore from Overland Park Blog Subject: Religion and Youth Ministry http://loveyouthministry.blogspot.com/
Jordan uses her blog to record her thoughts on youth ministry and to explain the life lessons she learns daily through Christ.
Why did you start writing this blog?
I started writing this blog particularly because I want to go into youth ministry one day, so it's fun writing about how Christ impacts my life in little and big ways every single day. I'm also a journalism major, so, like practicing my writing skills and incorporating the things I learn in my major into something that I love.
Why is it important for students to blog?
I think it's important for students to blog because we all have a story. We're all living for the story. And when we put our stories out there, it's cool to see how many people can relate to them.
Describe your blog in one sentence.
Overall, my blog is a way to share my story — the little stories of how Christ impacts my life every day.

COMMENTARY
Golden opportunity for Naadir Tharpe
By Kory Carpenter
kcarpenter@kansan.com
To call junior point guard Naadir Tharpe's current situation a gift would be an insult to gifts.
He fell into a box of misfit toys and came out looking like a 14 karat ring. A National Championship ring, perhaps.
Nine months ago he couldn't beat out Elijah Johnson, a shooting guard with no prior point guard experience, for starting duties on a team that was one good point guard away from contending for a national championship.
Tharpe was then recruited over for the second straight year, as highly-touted prep point guards like Marcus Paige, Anthony Barber and Demetrius Jackson as Bill Self chased the last two seasons before going elsewhere. When Self's most talented recruiting class of his career was complete in the spring, there wasn't a top-flight point guard to be found.
Only Frank Mason, a 5-foot-10 unranked recruit whose other scholarship offered included Towson, Tennessee State and George Mason, according to scout.com, was found. Mason might be a warm body on the bench or he might eventually contend for serious playing time, but Tharpe will be the starting point guard on opening night against Louisiana-Monroe.
To go from the bench, to being overlooked by Self, to distributing the ball to a handful of future NBA stars must have Tharpe believing in a higher power. Racking up assists this year will be as easy as handing the ball to Andrew Wiggins — the number one overall recruit who many have called the best prospect since Kevin Durant — and getting out of the way.
When Wiggins is double-teamed, likely one-and-done and NBA lottery pick Wayne Selden will be there to pick up the slack. Don't forget about sophomore Perry Ellis down low. Or five-star freshman center Joel Embiid.
The starting point guard on this Kansas team was going to have the best job in the country this season, and that job fell into Naadir Tharpe's lap.
You get the point
The window to capitalize on the months Self spent recruiting this class will slam shut the second the final game is over. If he thinks that final game will be anywhere but Cowboys Stadium on the first Monday in April, don't expect subpar point guard play to be his downfall.
But this season won't be like last season, where Self had to stick with shoddy point guard play because he had no better options on the bench, ultimately costing his team two consecutive Final Fours. Self surely realizes he will never coach a player as good as Wiggins, and he likely won't have three soon-to-be lottery picks on his team the rest of his career.
Naadir Tharpe could be one of the best point guards in the country this season or he could be left on the side of the road. It won't be an easy situation to handle, but if he wanted anything different he would have gone to Minnesota instead.

QUOTE OF THE DAY
THURSDAY, AUGUST 29, 2013
"The gap between the SEC and everyone else isn't getting ridiculous; it is ridiculous."
THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN
GREGG DOYEL
FACT OF THE DAY
The SEC has won seven consecutive national championships.
TRIVIA OF THE DAY
Q. Who was the last non-SEC team to win a National Championship?
A: Texas in 2005
THE MORNING BREW SEC dominating the preseason media
College football season is so close every fan can taste the excitement on the tip of their tongue. This season could be unlike any other, but the same powerhouse schools are still in the South Eastern Conference. The strength of the SEC this year makes the conference a popular conversation among the media, but why?
Maybe because the SEC has six schools within the preseason Associated Press Top 25 rankings: Alabama, Georgia, South Carolina, Texas A&M, Florida and LSU. Five of those six schools are in the preseason top 10.
By Blair Sheade
bsheade@kansan.com
Maybe because the reigning national champion, Alabama, will compete for a third-straight national title. Since 1936, no team has won three national championships, and no team has won four national titles in five years. The Crimson Tide will try to achieve those goals and continue to complete its dynasty in 2013, and quarterback A.J McCarron will try to become
the first starting quarterback to win three straight national titles.
Maybe because reigning Heisman Trophy winner and Texas A&M quarterback Johnny Manziel is constantly in the media for mishandling his fame. Currently, Manziel is suspended for the first half against Rice by the NCAA for suspicion of receiving money for autographs, reported by TexasAgs.com. Manziel will attempt to become the first player to win two Heisman Trophies since Archie Griffin in 1974 and
1975, and he'll have to win the Heisman with one less half under his belt. After the game against Rice, the Aggies will have to host the defending champions.
The media is drooling over the rematch of Alabama and Texas A&M, where Johnny Manziel upset the then -No. 1 team and Alabama.
On Sept. 24, the Texas A&M Aggies will host Alabama. The Aggies will try to repeat their performance from last year in Tuscaloosa, where Heisman Trophy winner Johnny Manziel made his name "Johnny Football."

Wednesday
Adrian Beltre, who hit his 28th homer, and Elvis Andrus each got
three of the Rangers 17 hits. Mitch Moreland also homered as every Texas starter got a hit except for Alex Rios, who chipped in with a walk, a stolen base and a run.
After working out of a jam in the first, it looked as if Hernandez
would escape trouble yet again in the second. Martin spoiled that notion, though, hitting a three-run homer with two outs.
The Rangers added a pair of runs in the third on a line drive by Geovany Soto that was misplayed by
left fielder Raul Ibanez. The ball ended up falling in front of a sliding Ibanez for a two-run single.

Eight freshmen join transfers
MAX GOODWIN
mgoodwin@kansan.com
The first week of classes involve thousands of freshmen wandering campus, searching for their classes, adapting to the workload and generally enjoying the sense of freedom that comes with being a rookie.
With a high influx of junior college transfers, the Jayhawks have 22 freshmen on their roster but eight of them were signed this past recruiting period. The newbies have been busy adjusting to the routine of a college athlete, practicing time management and finding a mental balance between academics, football and social life.
"So far things are running smoothly," freshman linebacker Colton Goesa said just before the start of the school year. Goesa has likely faced a bigger adjustment than any other player in his first year, as he is further
30
from home than anybody else. His home town is Milliani, Hawaii, so Lawrence is obviously a major change. He said he does occasionally miss the beaches and the ocean, but he is mostly able to focus on improving his abilities as a linebacker.
GEORGE MULLINIX/KANSAN
Freshman safety Tevin Shaw practices with junior nickelback Cassius Sendish at practice Aug. 16. Kansas' few freshmen look to make an impact this season
most of his time off the field with freshman teammates.
"We play video games, go out to eat, just like typical college stuff," Goes said.
For quarterback and Bishop Miege graduate Montell Cozart, there hasn't been much of an adjustment off the field at all. Cozart knows receivers Tre Parmalee and Justin McCay well from playing with them at Miege, and offensive line coach Tim Grunhard spent three years coaching Cozart at Miege.
Cozart said that for him, having those guys has made the transition from high school to college an easy one.
"It's like having my family here," Cozart said.
There has been plenty of help adjusting to the differences between high school and college on the field as well, Cozart said. Quarterback coach Ron Pawls has worked with both Cozart and fellow freshman

quarterback Jordan Darling to learn the terminology of calling plays in the Kansas offense.
Coazart went straight to starting quarterback Jake Heaps with questions about the lesson, and
the junior had no problem helping the freshman get to know the playbook and continued to give him advice on the practice field.
"This summer I worked with him a lot," Cozart said. "I would go to him two or three times per week to help get to know the playbook. He has a lot of coaching points for me throwing-wise, getting my feet right and things like that."
Coach Charlie Weis and the team captains agreed that last season the team was lacking leadership and correcting that has been a point of emphasis throughout camp.

"You just ask 'em," Spencer said. "I had a little problem the other day learning with some of the protections and Taylor [Cox] came up to my room that night and we went over all of it, we wrote all of it down, we worked on it and got it down."

Jayhawks to face Missouri State, Purdue this weekend
STELLA LIANG
sliang@kansan.com
The Kansas soccer team returns to the field this weekend with games against Missouri State and Purdue. The Jayhawks will face Missouri State on Friday before returning to Lawrence to play Purdue on Sunday.
Kansas coach Mark Francis said the team has been working on creating more offense and strengthening the defense by continuing to limit opponents' opportunities to score and keeping them out of the book.
The Missouri State Bears are a familiar opponent, as Kansas has faced them four out of the last five seasons, earning victories in all four games. This season, the Bears are off to a 0-2 start. They lost to Tulsa
last Sunday in double overtime, 0 to 1. Francis said they received scouting reports on the Bears from former opponents and will try to capitalize based on Missouri State's defense.
The Bears are led by senior forward Rachel Weimer and junior forward Molly Huber. Huber had a chance to score early in the game against Tulsa, but her shot was stopped. Sophomore goalkeeper Jessica Perry had seven saves against Tulsa.
lost 3 to 4. The three Boilermaker goals were by junior defender Mollie Kuramoto, junior forward Alex Halrston and freshman midfielder Holly Gregory.
As for the second opponent of the weekend, the Purdue Boilermakers have a strong offense, which led them to their 1-1 start. The Boilermakers took a total of 34 shots against Xavier last Sunday, but
"We want to be aggressive from the first minute of the game."
The Jayhawks started the season 1-1 and look to build upon their success from Sunday's game against Pacific. The Jayhawk offense scored three goals, while not allowing a

forward Caroline Kastor had both an assist and a goal against Pacific. She is now fifth on Kansas' all-time points list.
Sophomore midfielder Hanna Kallmaier said there is always room for improvement. She said in practice this week the team worked on finishing on offense and the speed of play.
"We want to be aggressive from the first minute of the game," Kallmaier said.
Kansas travels to Springfield, Mo., to face Missouri State on Friday at 6 p.m. The team comes back to Lawrence for the game against Purdue at noon on Sunday.

Dodgers take series, shut out Cubs
ASSOCIATED PRESS
LOS ANGELES — Ricky Nolasco pitched eight innings of a half ball, Hanley Ramirez and Andre
Ethier hit solo homers and the Los Angeles Dodgers beat the Chicago Cubs 4-0 on Wednesday.
The first-place Dodgers earned their 21st victory in August, tying the Los Angeles record for most wins in a calendar month. They avoided a second straight series loss by taking two of three from the last-place Cubs.
Nolasco (11-9) struck out a season high-tying 11, walked one and permitted only one runner to get reach third base. Acquired in a trade with Florida in early July, the
right-hander won his sixth straight start in August.
Dodgers rookie Yasiel Puig left after four innings with no immediate explanation. He didn't slide intosecond base to try to break up a double play in the first inning and visibly reacted after striking out in the third.
Edwin Jackson (7-14) gave up four runs — two earned — and six hits against his old team. He struck out five and walked two.
The Cubs have lost nine of 12, and went 2-4 on their West Coast trip.Manager Dale Sveum was ejected in the bottom of the first for arguing a checked swing by Puig with first base umpire Lance Barksdale.
Playing their only midweek home day game this season, the Dodgers scored their first two runs on the homers by Ramirez with two outs in the first and Ether in the fourth. The 88-degree heat and searing sun had fans crowding under the overhangs in the outfield pavilions and upper deck.
The Dodgers extended their lead to 4.0 in the fifth. After a pair of leadoff singles, Nolasco bunted and

The Dodgers' franchise record for wins in a calendar month is 25, set by Brooklyn in July
1947. ... Chicago fell to 9-17 in Jackson's 26 starts. ... After giving up just 11 homers in his previous
144 innings, Jackson allowed two in his first four innings against the Dodgers. ... The Cubs concluded their schedule against NL West teams with their final road game outside their division. They will travel exclusively within the NL Central in September for the first time since 1997. ... The Cubs return to Wrigley
field on Friday having lost 16 of their last 19 games at home.

Perez homers twice, Royals handle Twins
Kansas City Royals' Salvador Perez trots home with a two-run home run off Minnesota Twins pitcher Andrew Albers.
ASSOCIATED PRESS
MINNEAPOLIS — Salvador Perez homered twice, got four hits and a message to Minnesota pitcher Andrew Albers after a high-and-inside fastball, leading the Kansas City Royals over the Twins 8-1 Wednesday night.
Danny Duffy (2-0) pitched six 2-3 shutout innings hours after being promoted from Triple-A. Minnesota lost its fourth in a row.
When Perez came up again in the sixth, Albers threw an up-and in pitch that sent Perez tumbling to the ground.
Perez hit a two-run homer in the fourth, a 415-foot drive into the upper deck in left field off Albers (2-2) that made it 3-0.
The 23-year-old catcher, who missed a week with a concussion earlier this month, took his helmet off and pointed at his side, apparently telling Albers to aim lower if he's going to throw inside. Albers held both of his arms out and had a few words of his own for Perez.
Home plate umpire Hunter Wendelstedt warned both benches. Perez then struck back by lining a single that whizzed over Albers' head.
Perez hit another two-run homer in the eighth, connecting off reliever Casey Fien in the eighth. Perez had his first career multihomer game. In 15 games against the Twins this season, Perez is hitting .410 with four doubles, three homers and nine RBIs.
Duffy was called up from the minors and replaced the struggling Wade Davis in the rotation. Duffy allowed five hits and struck out seven in his third start with the Royals since having elbow surgery last June.

Astros losing ways don't change against White Sox
ASSOCIATED PRESS
CHICAGO — Chris Sale struck out 12 over eight plus dominant innings and Avisil Garcia hit a three-run homer to lead the Chicago White Sox to a 6-1 win over the Houston Astros on Wednesday night.
Garcia finished with three hits for the White Sox, who have won 10 of their last 12 games. Sale (10-12) bounced back from an embarrassing start Friday night against Texas in which he allowed a career-worst four home runs. Against Houston, he gave up only one run on four hits and left to standing ovation after allowing his second walk of the game.
After posting a 1.93 ERA while winning his previous three starts, Sale matched a career high by allowing eight runs over seven innings in an 11-5 loss to Texas. He said he was also embarrassed by how he treated home plate umpire Jerry Layne and the emotions he displayed in the dugout.
Sale was more in control Wednesday night. The left-hander struck out the side in the first inning then got Robbie Grossman looking to end the third for his seventh strikeout. He struck out the side in the fifth, ending the inning by throwing a 96 mph fastball past Jonathan Villar.
Sale had his 22-2-3 scoreless innings streak snapped when Chris Carter hit a two-out solo shot in the seventh to tie the game 1-1. It was Carter's 26th of the season.
Jeff Keppinger broke a one-all tie in the seventh with a sacrifice fly off Astros reliever Lucas Harrell (6-15).
got by a shaky first to pitch six innings in a no-decision, allowing one run. He pitched around seven hits and five walks with four strikeouts.
Sale became the first pitcher in White Sox history to have 12-plus strikeouts in four starts. He also dropped his ERA to 2.99.
Harrell then allowed back-to-back walks and Garcia followed with his first home run with the White Sox to put them up 5-1. Garcia was acquired from the Tigers in part of three-team deal that sent Jake Peavy to the Red Sox.
Astros starter Jarred Cosart
The White Sox loaded the bases against Cosart in the first inning with no outs. After Dunn struck out, Konerko hit an RBI single. Cosart minimized the damage by getting Garcia to bounce into a double play.

Reds avoid sweep. shutout Cardinals
four of five.
ST. LOUIS — Jay Bruce homered and had five RBIs and the Cincinnati Reds got a dominant effort from Homer Bailey to beat the St. Louis Cardinals 10-0 on Wednesday night and avoid a three-game sweep.
The Cardinals lead the NL Central by a half-game over Pittsburgh after losing for the third time in 12 games, and the Reds are 3/4 games back.
The Reds came out swinging a few hours after Brandon Phillips' expletive-filled tirade at a Cincin nat Eniager reporter sparked by scrutiny of his .310 on-base percentage, and after manager Dusty Baker criticized his team for falling short while dropping
Bailey (9-10) capped a six-run first against Adam Wainwright (15-8) with the Reds' sixth hit and his first RBI of the season. He allowed five hits in 7-1-3 innings with seven strikeouts and is 4-0 in his past six starts.
The poor start was unusual for Wainrighwt, who matched his career worst with nine runs allowed and lasted two innings for his shortest outing of the year.
He had worked at least seven
innings his previous eight starts and was coming off a complete game against the Braves.
Phillips singled his first two atbats and struck out his next two trips while going 2 for 5.
The Reds also got RBIs from Ryan Ludwick and Todd Frazier in the first with another run scoring on a wild pitch. Zack Cozart got the first of his three hits when Wainwright failed to cover first.
Phillips singled and Joey Votto walked again to open the second, setting the table for Bruce's 26th homer on a 1-2 pitch. It's his third five-RBI game, one of them against the Cardinals in 2009.

Tampa Bay snaps Angels' four-game winning streak
ASSOCIATED PRESS
ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. — Chris Archer pitched seven strong innings, David Dieses scored twice and the Tampa Bay Rays beat the angels 4-1 Wednesday night, ending Los Angeles' four-game winning streak.
- Archer (8-5) allowed one run and five hits while striking out five. For the fifth time in his last 10 starts, the rookie right-hander did not walk a batter.
Archer breezed through the first six innings, scattering three singles and facing 20 batters, only
two over the minimum.
Fernando Rodney pitched the ninth, striking out two for his 31st save. Garrett Richards (4-6) gave up four runs on seven hits and three walks in 3 1-3 innings.
DeJesus, playing his fifth game since the Rays got him in a trade with Washington, had two of the Rays' eight hits and drove in his first run. Ben Zobrist also had two hits and an RBI.

The University of Kansas Cross Country teams will host the Bob Timmons Classic at Rimrock Farm this Saturday to open the 2013 season.

The teams are looking to get off to a quick start in the first meet of the year, but most importantly, they want to be in peak condition when the championships come around.
Injuries plagued the teams last season, and coach Stanley Redwine said that the athletes needed to be more patient and to pace themselves so they could compete well at the end of the season and avoid injuries. The Jayhawks saw their poor health hurt the team at last season's league meet.

"We were ready to go with the top five, but lacked a sixth, so if the fifth falls out, then you're really behind," Redwine said. Redwine added a large amount of freshmen in addition to athletes from Johnson County Community College for depth to combat potential injuries.
"We have 10 new people coming in, so we need to gel as a team," he said.
The men's team is looking to build on last year's success in the Big 12 Championships. The team placed fourth, but fell short of its ultimate goal to make Nationals.
Junior James Wilson races toward the finish line for the men's 6K run at the Bob Timmons Classic on Sept. 3, 2011. Wilson earned fifth place with a total time of 19:37.90.
Expected to be in that pack of runners is senior Josh Munsch and juniors James Wilson, Reid Buchanan, Conner Day and Brendan Soucie.
On the women's side, the University faces a loss of experience, with only one senior left on the team. To fill that void, the team is counting on the many new freshmen.
Redwine said that he expects the incoming freshmen to come in and contribute to the team, especially following the success of last year.
The newcomers had a lot of high
school success, but Redwine said that carrying that success over to the collegiate level on a consistent basis is one of the toughest things to do. The races that used to hold 70-80 people now have 300 people,
"We have 10 new people coming in, so we need to gel as a team."
with the competition including fifth-year seniors. Redwine said that there is a chance for some "shell-shock."
"Every meet that they run in
college will be, at the minimum,
equivalent to their state meets in
high school," Redwine said. "So
when you're talking about freshmen racing
STANLEY REDWINE Coach
men racing against fifth-year seniors, we just have to see how they interact with those people."
The only senior on the team, Natalie Becker, has a lot of leading
to do for the women. Junior Mady Rich will help lead the pack too, and sophomores Hannah Richardson and Sara Seiwald will be very crucial to the team's
success, as well.
The themes of the 2013 season on both the men's and women's side are to be patient and stay healthy, with productivity from the underclassmen being essential. If the Jayhawks can accomplish these things, it should be a very successful season.

The Kansas women's volleyball team divides its season into three parts: non-conference, conference and the NCAA Tournament. The Jayhawks play in the Arizona Invitational in Tucson, Ariz., this weekend, which will begin a stretch of 13 non-conference matches (and an exhibition contest against the Italian 23-and-under national team). These matches will be their first of the 2013 season as the squad prepares for conference play and the postseason.
were looking to start the season with momentum and set a good tone," said Caroline Jarmoc, senior middle blocker.
Along with Kansas, teams competing in the invitational include Arizona, Central Arkansas and Morgan State.
Arizona is projected to finish No. 8 in a loaded Pac 12 conference that features 5 teams in the top 15 of the American Volleyball Coaches Association preseason poll. Central Arkansas is a talented mid-major team that won its third Southland
Conference regular season title in the last four years and made the NCAA Tournament. Morgan State will look to bounce back this season after finishing 5-21 last year.
After an intense preseason schedule that included multiple weeks of two-a-day practices, the Jayhawks are ready to get their season underway. Freshman middle blocker Taylor Soucie is excited to compete in her first collegiate match after a successful high school career at Osawatomie High School. This tournament will be her first real glimpse of the fast-paced college matches.
Even with the tough matchups ahead, Coach Bechard isn't placing too much of an emphasis on scouting the competition.
"The first tournament out we've got to worry about what we do on our side of the net and focus on what we do well," Bechard said.
"The speed of the game is a lot different from high school, especially my high school, which is in a really small town," Soucie said.
The Jayhawks went 12-2 in the non-conference schedule in 2012 and will have a chance to avenge
both losses this season. Kansas plays two matches against Arkansas—one home and one away—and a home match against Notre Dame.
On Saturday, Aug. 24, the players got a taste of competition as the Crimson team defeated the Blue team in the annual Crimson and Blue scrimmage match. The team used it as an opportunity to prepare for this weekend's matches and fine-tune its mechanics and rotations.
The invitational will be played using a round-robin format. In the case of a tiebreaker, the team with the fewest number of sets lost will win the title. If a tie remains, the team who surrendered the fewest number of points wins the tiebreaker.
The team finished 2nd in the Arkansas Invitational to begin the 2012 season.
