Nick Heinerikson of Raymore, Mo., and Taylor Davis, Olathe junior, watch movies on a laptop computer to pass time while camping for the release of Sony's PlayStation 3 on Thursday afternoon at Wal-Mart. Second in line for a premium 60GB unit, Davis is the only camper planning on keeping the PS3 to play as all others hope to sell their systems for "anywhere between $1,400 and $5,400," according to Nathan Hickey, Lawrence freshman, who is waiting for his at Best Buy.
Thanking the PS3 campers for their orderliness, Wal-Mart management awarded them with boxes of doughnuts Thursday. The campers have been waiting in the Lawn and Garden department of the store since Wednesday at noon and will receive their units once they are released at midnight Thursday. At other area stores such as Best Buy, campers have been much less organized and have had to fight to hold their spots through the confusion.

Beauty.queen abdicates title, leaves for Iraq
The crocodiles are on an endangered species list and their importation is prohibited, airport manager Alfonso Cusi said.
He said charges were being readied against Castillo, while the reptiles were turned over to the Department of Environment and Natural Resources.
MANILA, Philippines — A Filipino man who flew home from Cambodia said he was carrying live fish in his carry on luggage, until a check at Manila airport revealed three 1.5-foot-long crocodiles, officials said.
MINNEAPOLIS — Jessica Gaulke is trading in her sash as a Minnesota beauty queen for Army fatigues — and Iraq.
Gaulke, who was chosen Minneapolis Aquaternial Queen of the Lakes in July, is giving up her title because her National Guard unit has been activated for duty. The 22-year-old Augsburg College student will be going to the Mideast as a diesel generator mechanic.
The head of the Manila International Airport Authority said Wednesday it wasn't clear how Enrique Yu Castillo, 50, was able to carry the Siamese crocodiles from Phnom Penh to Singapore to Manila on Monday night.
"It really wasn't a decision that was mine to be made," said Gaulke. "My unit's going. I've accepted it. It's part of the whole scope of why I joined; I'll be there for all of us over here."
Castillo had earlier sought a permit to import the exotic animals but his application was denied, said Teddy Aguir, from the environment department's Wildlife Traffic Monitoring unit at the airport.
Gauke said being Queen of the Lakes, Minnesota's best-known festival royalty, is "a huge honor," but she said she is simply honoring the agreement she made when she committed to the Guard before her senior year in high school.
"We're proud of her for making this choice and what she'll do for the country," Aquaternial President Jim Erickson said.

on the record

A 20-year-old KU student reported being battered in the 2100 block of East 26th street. The suspect is an acquaintance of the victim. The incident occurred Saturday, and alcohol is suspected of being a factor in the incident.
The Lawrence Police Department will increase patrols during the holiday week to combat drunken driving and seat-belt violations.
CAMPUS Patrols increase through Thanksgiving holiday
The patrols are a highlight of the department's "Three-D Month: Drunk and Drugged Driving Awareness Month."
Officers will maintain saturation patrols into December, but the focus will be on the dates between Nov. 20 and Nov. 25.
Students should drive carefully this coming week as they return home for Thanksgiving Break.

Police said Inez Horne, 45, was arrested Wednesday after she, two daughters and a family friend stormed a classroom to defend her 15-year-old son, who had called home to say he was afraid another student was planning to attack him.

"The mom decided to show up at school and take matters into her own hands," said Police Officer Robert Fey.
CHARLOTTE, N.C. — A student's call for help to his mom may have gotten him more parental involvement than he bargained for.
Police Sgt. Randy Haigler said the incident unfolded Wednesday morning after Horne's son called to tell her he was being threatened.
"They arrived on campus, they didn't check into the office, they went directly to the classroom and started to assault a 16-year-old student," Haigler said.
Horne was charged with misdemeanor trespassing. Daughters Keisha Horne, 19, and Marquitta McNair, 18, were charged with misdemeanor trespassing, simple assault and carrying concealed weapons — Horne a knife, McNair a box cutter — according to arrest records.
