KANSAS IN HEAT // EARLY ARRIVAL
> Tackle the sticky world of relationships
Q. Q. I'm planning on having sex for the first time but am worried about coming too early. My friend said the secret is to go slow or masturbate beforehand. What can I do to delay my orgasm?
Junior Linebac
A. Unless you have been doing your controlled masturbation exercises for the past four months, there is little you can do. Let's face it, only 2% of guys last as long as they want to first time. It's just not easy
Ejaculatory control comes from experience, and exercising your brain and penis. Accept the fact that you are not going to last as long as you want. You can use an ejaculatory control condom to dull the sensation and help you last longer. I would also recommend extending the foreplay.
Going slowly will certainly help, but it is far from a miracle cure. You have to know your body and work on controlling your orgasm to understand how to use your speed. But I would agree that slower is better if you want to last longer.
The last thing I'll say is don't psyche yourself out. If you think, "Don't orgasm early, don't orgasm early," you won't last long. Instead, enjoy yourself and keep your mind in the moment.

CATCH OF THE WEEK // BRIAN WRIGHT
TURN ONS: I really like it if a girl can keep up and engage in the conversation because I can move kind of fast. I also love a girl who is confident and can hang out with my friends and contribute to a conversation.
TURN OFFS: "When a girl asks too many questions. I know she might not understand the sports game I'm watching or something which is fine, but too many questions get on my nerves. And obviously smoking. I see these beautiful girls and then they pull out a cigarette
NOTICES FIRST IN A POTENTIAL PARTNER: I think anyone would be lying if they said they didn't notice looks first. After that, I notice if a girl can let loose and have a good time but keep her poise while doing it.
INTERESTS & HOBBIES: Hanging out with friends, playing lacrosse, laying out by the pool, wakeboarding and meeting new people."
and I just wonder why they even do that to themselves — they're so gorgeous.

WHY I'M A CATCH: If a girl really likes being around me than that basically says why I'm a catch. I just like to treat girls well and show them a fun time.

Reesing's book offers inside look
BY MIKE LAVIERI

Thousands of fans attend football games on Saturdays. Few, however, know what the game's like on the other side of the stands.
Former Jayhawk quarterback Todd Reesing gives readers a peek into life as a Kansas football player in his new book "Rising to New Heights."
The first chapter of the book covers Kansas' 2008 Orange Bowl win. Rees vividly describes the day, as if he was writing moments after the final whistle blew.
"It's a lot of insight," Reeing said. "I talk about what players think during a game."
Bob Snodgrass, CEO and publisher of Ascend Books, approached Reeing in the spring to write the book. Reeing said the book "came out of nowhere."
"It's a big part of our lives, so it really sticks with you," Reesing said.
Reeing started working with co-author, Kent Pulliam, and the two finished the first draft in about two months.
About three months later, Reesing and Pulliam started meeting. Reesing said it went surprisingly fast.
A lot of the detail Reesing gives
Reesing did not write much about former coach Mark Mangino. Reesing said that the events took place during two games out of a four-year career. He briefly touches on how the team was affected by the Mangino investigation.
is based on his memory. He did not review game film, but he did double check box scores and the play-by-play for accuracy purposes.
The book gave Reesing an opportunity to talk about the highs of the 2007 season and the lows of 2009.
"I have nothing negative to say," Reesing said. "He was the only one to give me a chance."
In the forward of the book, former Kansas All-American quarterback John Hadl said, "Todd is probably the greatest quarterback we have ever had at Kansas."
Reesing did not just perform on the field; he also excelled in the classroom.
He was humbled by the praise he received from professors. Finance professor Lisa Bergeron, who Reesing was a TA for, spoke very highly of Reesing. In the book she said Reesing did a good job balancing everything, even
Reeing took every advantage of that opportunity.
He was disappointed he did not get an opportunity at an NFL camp this summer. Of the 14 quarterbacks drafted, only Dan LeFevour, Central Michigan, had more career passing yards. Reeing, however, was the shortest of those in this draft class.
with how busv he was.
Reesing's effort on the field was not enough to land him a job in the NFL. He signed with the Saskatchewan Roughriders of the Canadian Football League in May, but was released in June.
"It ites effort to make good grades and do well on the field," Reeing said.
"You can't help your size, speed or how far you throw the ball," Reesing said. "The NFL is looking at physical statures and potential."
Reesing is currently going between Lawrence and Austin and was at the Jayhawks first game versus North Dakota State.
Reesing's emotions were running high, who watched as a fan for the first time.
He had to adjust his mindset from player to fan.
If Reesing cannot land a job in professional football, he said he hopes to use his finance and economics degree to stay in sports from a business standpoint.

and a trained roc to face, tails piled into Arrowhead hoping for something great to happen so they could once again start their love-hate relationship with the team. But after their team's victory Monday night, fans' Facebook statuses were consistently filled with excited game updates, and students discussed the game on campus while wearing Chiefs gear proudly.
While fans may have no idea how the rest of the season will go for the Chiefs, they have hope that will stand at least until the next game. The same thing will happen here at Kansas. I do not want to say that fans are a fickle bunch, but there is a large group of people who will jump the bandwagon after a victory and hop off a loss. In my book, this is pretty much unforgivable in sports. Someone recently told me that my game day rituals and yelling at the television does not affect how the team will play. Really? Did you need to crush my dreams of contributing to the 2008 National Championship or 2007 Orange Bowl victory? Okay, I know that all of that is true, but fans do make a difference. The coaches and athletes always thank the fans and call us the "greatest fans in college sports." At some base level I like to think they enjoy having us up in the stands, hearing our cheers, feeling the hope and love for our college team.

So dear readers, think about this the next time you are planning your weekend around whether or not to go to the games. Renew that hope that we start the season with and get to the games. Cleer until you lose your voice, don all sorts of Mardi Gras beads and other spirited apparel and proudly wear the awkward tan lines you get from morning games. Give the team a chance. No matter what happens this season, we are still Jayhawks and always will be. That is something to be proud of right there.
