lmayfield@kansan.com KU graduate Kathryn Unruh said she decided to go to graduate school during her sophomore year at KU, but she had no idea what that meant financially until recently. I spent quite a bit of time looking into the cost of living at the various schools I was applying to, said Unruh, now a neuroscience graduate student at Vanderbilt University. Figuring in transportation, whether the schools covered insurance, etc. Unruh only researched Ph.D. programs that were funded by a tuition and living stipend in order to make the cost more affordable. She receives a $26,500 yearly stipend from Vanderbilt, which covers tuition and living expenses. The stipend will allow her to complete graduate school without debt. While Unruh is managing her graduate school costs, Lawrence Free State High School counselor, Joel Frederick, said most students entering undergraduate studies are unable to comprehend the cost of college. We can talk to them about it; Im not sure a lot of them have a good understanding of it, Frederick said. None of them have bought mortgages, and very few would have credit cards with huge amounts of debt that they would understand credit. Frederick said high school students who eventually want to pursue professional degrees are considering community colleges as a way to offset costs. He said although many students are still able to attend college, their student loan debt will be much higher than it would have been in the past. The loan debt is getting worse and worse, Frederick said. Theres still scholarships out there, but scholarship money is not keeping up with the increases in tuition. A recent study by Fidelity Investments reported that only 31 percent of parents with college-bound children are realistically considering the total cost of college. The College Boards Annual Survey of Colleges reveals the average tuition and fees of a four-year college with in-state tuition is roughly $8,244. The average tuition and fees of the same school for an out-of-state student is $20,770. The Fidelity study also shows that families who calculate total costs are alleviating that burden by choosing less-expensive colleges, planning to rely more on financial aid and urging students to choose majors that promise more lucrative careers.

Food Dude comes to KU

reBeKKa schlichTing
rschlichting@kansan.com For students with busy lives and limited cooking skills, fast food dinners often are much simpler than homemade meals. Luckily, help is on the way. Chef Kevin Roberts, also known as The Food Dude, will host a cooking lecture today at 7 p.m. in Woodruff Auditorium in the Kansas Union. Roberts will demonstrate quick and simple recipes that can be easily adapted into a college students hectic lifestyle. Colby Soden, a sophomore from Baldwin City, said he prepares his food according to how much time he has to eat. I eat mostly frozen food and sandwich stuff, Soden said. I dont cook very often, maybe once a week. Sodens problem is common among students and those struggling with hectic schedules, Roberts said. My whole hook is trying to get young adults cooking again, Roberts said. Everybodys hooked on fast food, and we need to get people back in the kitchen and eating healthier. Roberts started lecturing at colleges in 2004 after his cookbook, Munchies, was published. The mantra for the book, Roberts said, is to get people eating tasty and healthy meals. He is also the author of Kissing in the Kitchen, a guide to creating romantic dinners. Along with his college tours, Roberts is the host of TLCs BBQ Pitmasters and owner of four sports bars in San Diego. SUAs culinary committee invited Roberts to speak at the University. We thought this was a good opportunity to tell students about healthy eating, specifically in the dorm rooms, because we know that you cant really make anything in the dorm rooms, said Kelsey Ball, culinary committee coordinator. Free food samples from the presentation will be offered along with sample bottles of Franks RedHot Sauce. The event is free and open to the public. Edited by Joanna Hlavacek

The studies are based on undergraduate tuition. Students who want to pursue a graduate degree have cost considerations in addition to undergraduate tuition. Average tuition and fees for graduate school is roughly $8,763 at public universities and $20,368 at private universities, according to the U.S. Department of Education. Graduate students accrued a total of $35 billion in debt in the 2010-2011 school year alone. Pete Knutson, a financial planner with McDaniel Knutson Financial Partners, said students who are not financially prepared for college should consider spending more than four years in school. Youre better off, in my opinion, staying in college an extra couple years working your way through and chipping away at it so you can graduate with no debt, Knutson said. The Council of Graduate Schools reports that individuals with graduate degrees will be in higher demand during the next several years. Also, DailyFinance reports that the median salary for someone with an advanced degree is $13,000 higher than someone with only a bachelors degree. The biggest salary jump comes with an advanced degree in health and medical preparatory programs, where salaries can increase

by as much as 190 percent. Knutson said graduate school makes sense for students studying areas that will provide high salaries, such as law, engineering or medicine. For other less lucrative career paths, he said taking on any debt to pursue a masters degree is not worth it. If you get a masters in engineering, thats different than a masters in ceramics, Knuston said. Im not sure that masters degrees do as much as they used to, in the same way that college degrees dont do as much as they used to. Average salary increases from an undergraduate degree to a law degree are nearly 81 percent, according to DailyFinance. Nonetheless, Steven Freedman, assistant director of admissions for the KU School of Law, said that nationally, law school applications have dropped dramatically, likely because of the cost. Many students are shying away from expensive private law schools because they are concerned about taking on excessive debt, Freeman said. For this reason, a number of students are choosing not to attend law school. Although KU is one of the few schools nationwide to see an increase in applications, Freeman said some students choose to attend

cheaper schools or not to attend at all. First-year tuition at KUs School of Law for the 2012-2013 school year totals $18,663 for residents and $31,474 for nonresidents. High school students who plan to attend graduate or professional schools have special considerations when it comes to the costs of an undergraduate degree as well. With the cost of a four-year school up 15 percent from 2008 to 2010, students who aspire to obtain higher degrees have to start planning financially. Although she will graduate without debt, Unruh said, attending graduate school instead of getting a job has costs in the long run. After her first year, she will be required to work 40 or more hours a week in research labs or as a teaching assistant as a condition of her stipend from Vanderbilt, leaving no time for a part-time job or other sources of income. I am so thankful that I wont be in any debt when I graduate, but I also wont be in a position where I have any sort of savings built up, which is absolutely concerning if I dont find a job soon after I graduate, Unruh said.

Sexual assault awareness Week promotes campus safety

HealTH

Though numbers for rape and sexual assault on campus have been low the past few years, Sexual Assault Awareness Week aims to keep the subject fresh in students minds. Sponsored by The Emily Taylor Center for Women and Gender Equity (ETCWGE), this week is intended to make students aware of resources available and the idea that sexual assault is prevalent among college students.

We do not want to overly induce fear or give impression that we are less safe than other campuses, said Kathy Rose-Mockry, ETCWGE director. KU is a reasonably, relatively safe campus, but demographically, we know its an area sexual assault is likely. The KU Office of Public Safety reported two sexual assaults in 2011 and one rape in 2010. But sexual assault often goes unreported, said Chrissy Heikkila, director of community education and service for GaDuGi SafeCenter.

During the 2011 calendar year, GaDuGi treated 256 men, women and children from Douglas and Jefferson counties by providing advocacy and crisis therapy. National numbers show it is most likely to happen to women between 18 and 22, Heikkila said. We know it can happen to anyone, but there is a strong correlation between that age and the age of the traditional college student. Heikkila said another reason to target sexual assault on a college campus is because it often goes

hand-in-hand with alcohol consumption, an issue Sexual Assault Awareness Week combats. From 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. everyday this week on Wescoe Beach, the Commission on the Status of Women, part of ETCWGE, will hand out information on alcohol and consent, bystandard behavior and University harassment policies. Amanda Schulze, a coordinator for CSW, said a main concern for her as a student is the education of both genders on alcohol and consent.

I think its really important to realize both genders are responsible for the alcohol they drink, Schulze said. But men do need to know that giving a girl alcohol in the hopes of something happening is not ok. Rose-Mockry said sexual assault is not just a womans issue, and the week is intended to include men. Yesterday, the ETCWGE held The Most Interesting Man In the World, a discussion about chivalry and modern masculinity. The main thing I think guys should know is that they always

need verbal consent, Schulze said. Sometimes physical contact can be mistaken but a verbal yes or no keeps that from happening. In addition to tabling outside Wescoe Beach, the week will continue with What Would You Do?, which will feature ethical dilemmas and discussion at Naismtih Hall at 7 p.m. On Thursday, a candlelight vigil honoring sexual assault survivors will be held at 7 p.m. at Memorial Campanile.

Police say the mother called paramedics Monday saying her daughter was unresponsive after falling out of bed. The baby was taken in critical condition to the hospital, where doctors found meth in her system. The baby has been placed in protective custody. A 50-year-old man living at the same extended-stay motel as the mother and child has also been arrested. It wasnt clear Tuesday how the baby ingested meth.

Baby hospitalized after ingesting hard drugs

WICHITA, Kan. Police in Wichita say an 8-month-old girl whose mother claimed she had fallen off a bed was really under the influence of methamphetamine. KSNW-TV reports the baby was upgraded to stable condition Tuesday at St. Francis Regional Medical Center. The 34-year-old mother has been arrested on suspicion of child endangerment and possession of drugs and paraphernalia.

Monument to include soldiers from Fort riley

FORT RILEY, Kan. The names of 16 soldiers are now part of a monument near Fort Rileys Cavalry Parade Field after a ceremony Tuesday to mark the 11th anniversary of the Sept. 11 attacks. The event was held by the 1st Infantry Division and Fort Riley. The names joined those of 188 soldiers on the Global War on Terrorism Monument near the U.S. Cavalry Museum at the northeast Kansas Army post. A 62-year-old Lawrence man was arrested in the 700 block of New Hampshire at 8:56 a.m. Monday for suspicion of criminal trespassing. Bond was set at $100. He was released.

All of the names are of service members who either deployed to combat from Fort Riley or who mobilized through the installation before going to war. The annual event pays tribute to the nearly 3,000 people who were killed in the attacks on New York, Washington and Pennsylvania, as well as the thousands of soldiers who have been killed or wounded in Iraq and Afghanistan. Brig. Gen. Don MacWillie, senior commander of Fort Riley and the 1st Infantry Division, said the attacks unit-

ed the United States around a cause, rather than fear. Those attacks were designed to break us as a nation. Those attacks were designed to change the American way of life. Eleven years later, were still standing strong, MacWillie said. They did not and will not condemn us to fear. Fort Riley is home of the 1st Infantry Division and its more than 18,000 soldiers.

Obamas goal is to end all U.S. combat there by the end of 2014, while Romney has avoided specifics about troop numbers. Romney repeated his position in the speech Tuesday that his goal would be for U.S. troops to hand over security to Afghan troops by the same deadline, while evaluating the conditions on the ground and soliciting the best advice of commanders. We can all agree that our men and women in the field deserve a clear mission, that they deserve the resources and resolute leadership they need to complete that mission, and that they deserve a country that will provide for their needs when they come home, he said.

He told the families of the victims that what they did for this country is still etched in the minds of not only you but millions of Americans forever. Negative ads were off the air Tuesday, following precedent for the anniversary. The 9/11 attack killed nearly 3,000 in the United States and was followed by wars in Afghanistan and Iraq.

Frozen woolly mammoth found in Siberia

associated press
MOSCOW (AP) Scientists have discovered well-preserved frozen woolly mammoth fragments deep in Siberia that may contain living cells, edging a tad closer to the Jurassic Park possibility of cloning a prehistoric animal, the missions organizer said Tuesday. Russias North-Eastern Federal University said an international team of researchers had discovered mammoth hair, soft tissues and bone marrow some 328 feet underground during a summer expedition in the northeastern province of Yakutia. Expedition chief Semyon Grigoryev said Korean scientists with the team had set a goal of finding living cells in the hope of cloning a mammoth. Scientists have previously found bones and fragments but not living cells. Grigoryev told the online newspaper Vzglyad it would take months of research to determine whether they have indeed found the cells. Only after thorough laboratory research will it be known whether these are living cells or not, he said, adding that would take until the end of the year at the earliest. Woolly mammoths are thought to have died out around 10,000 years ago, although scientists think small groups of them lived longer in Alaska and on Russias Wrangel Island off the Siberian coast. Scientists already have deciphered much of the genetic code of the woolly mammoth from balls of mammoth hair found frozen in the Siberian permafrost. Some believe its possible to recreate the prehistoric animal if they find living cells in the permafrost. Those who succeed in recreating an extinct animal could claim a Jurassic Park prize, the concept of which is being developed by the X Prize Foundation that awarded a 2004 prize for the first private spacecraft.

sculptures of woolly mammoths are on display in the siberian town of Khanty-Mansiysk.

Tobacco takes over Indonesia

associated press
JAKARTA, Indonesia (AP) Indonesian men rank as the worlds top smokers, with two out of three of them lighting up in a country where cigarettes cost pennies and tobacco advertising is everywhere. A survey released Tuesday found that 67 percent of all males over 15 years old smoke. The sprawling archipelago ranked second only to Russia overall with a rate of 35 percent compared to 39 percent, respectively. We have failed in protecting our people, said Health Minister Nafsiah Mboi, commenting on the rate of male smokers jumping from 53 percent since 1995. We have been defeated by the tobacco industry ... we dont want this, we cannot accept this because our job is to protect people from cigarettes. More than 8,000 people participated in the study last year, which is part of a global series of surveys taken in 15 countries with heavy tobacco use and supported by the World Health Organization and the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. It also found a high rate of Indonesians were subjected to second-hand smoke at work, home and in public places. Mboi said she was particularly alarmed to learn that nearly 80 percent of Indonesians are exposed to smoke at home. How is the number of parents smoking at home with kids so high? It means that they are damaging their childrens lungs, whether intentionally or not, she said. As the health minister, I am ashamed to let this condition continue. Indonesia has long been criticized for its lack of tobacco controls. It is one of a remaining handful of countries that has failed to sign the WHOs tobacco treaty. Giant billboards promote cigarettes and commercials run on television and before movies in theaters. Local and multinational tobacco companies also routinely sponsor sporting events and concerts advertising that has long been banned in many countries. Most Indonesian men crave kreteks, a pungent mixture of tobacco and cloves, but brands such as Marlboro, produced by U.S.-

based Philip Morris International, have also gained in popularity. About 3 percent of women smoke in the country. Health regulations passed in 2009 call for a number of tighter tobacco controls, including bans on advertising and smoking in public places, but they have yet to be implemented by the government. Its just sitting there, said Mark Hurley of the Washington-based Campaign for Tobacco-Free Kids, who attended the reports launch in Jakarta. I think if there was highlevel approval, the health regulations would have been passed a long time ago. Smoking-related illnesses kill at least 200,000 annually in Indonesia.

alamb@kansan.com The straightforward story of a struggling writer achieving success by stealing the work of someone else isnt enough to reach the general publics standards for an intriguing movie, and Brian Klugman and Lee Sternthal, co-writers and directors of The Words, seem to know it. So, to compensate, they try to polish a dud with a fancy structure and pretty actors, but in the end the movie cant transcend the familiar morality play were all tired of seeing when it has nothing new to offer despite its good intentions. Woody Allen employed such a tale of plagiarism to great effect as a subplot before. However, to expand this concept into the main narrative of a feature-length film, Klugman and Sternthal dress it up as part of a story within a story within a story, attempting to frame this simple tale with a layered conceit. The weakest layer of the film has Dennis Quaid as an author in front of an audience (and later with only

The book itself unfolds on-screen as the central narrative in which frustrated writer Rory Jansen (Bradley Cooper) cant get his career off the ground. Upon finding a 60-year-old unpublished manuscript about a deeply affecting love story, Rory claims it as his own, and it subsequently becomes an unfathomable hit. The young hopeful who originally wrote this lost masterpiece, now an old man (Jeremy Irons), then confronts Rory and reveals the real tale behind his book. This plays out as a visually engrossing, tender but tragic romance in post-World War II Paris, working as both the heart of The Words and the most compelling section. Unfortunately, the surrounding narrative of Rorys relationship with his wife (Zo Saldana) and his ethical turmoil concerning his literary theft never particularly engages viewers, more frequently boring them with many recycled character clichs. While neither Cooper nor

aking up in time for morning classes is tough enough for a KU student living in Lawrence. For those making the daily commute to Lawrence from another city, the day starts much earlier. Ive been making the commute from Overland Park to Lawrence for the past two years, and judging by the growing number of bus-travelers I see on the K-10 Connector (the bus transporting people to and from Lawrence), commuting is becoming a popular trend for KU students in neighboring cities. Take recent KU graduate Jarod Kilgore for example. Kilgore com-

Commuting to campus saves money

muted from Olathe approximately six days a week last year and held a weekend job in Lawrence as well. Kilgores earliest class was a Friday morning discussion at 9 a.m., a class he woke up for at 7 a.m. I could take my time, eat a couple bowls of Capn Crunch, but still leave my house by eight., Kilgore said. This gave me plenty of time to get to campus, which was about a 40 minute drive, then walk to the class, which was about 10 minutes from the rec parking lot, where I parked every day for class. Aside from the obvious time inconveniences commuting presents, food costs expose another element of the daily commuting

grind. Bringing a sack lunch is the ideal optionyou save money by not resorting to The Underground or local restaurants. However, there are days when an overnight stay in Lawrence is required, and when the sack lunches run dry, the wallet comes out.

I obviously didnt have a place to store food in Lawrence, so I would almost always go out, or at the least get something I could transport easily in my backpack, Kilgore said. I spent significantly more money on food because I lived outside of Lawrence. So why do commuters put up with all the hassle? The overspending on food and earlier wake-up times? The answer is pretty simple: money. Saving what I estimate to be $400 to $600 a month on rent and utilities by living at home, I can put some extra cash away in the process. Sure, taking the K-10 Connector several times a week can become a tedious task, but it

allows me to get an hours worth of schoolwork done while using the bus free Wi-Fi, so Ill take the silver lining in stride. After all, anyone who commutes is suffering through the process for an education, and thats what sticks at the back of my head every time I have a large person squeeze in next to me on the bus at 8 a.m. At the end of the day it makes perfectly logical sense for me to commute to and from Lawrence. Getting through the day, however, is what makes commuting a tall order for any KU student. Roque is a senior majoring in journalism from Overland Park. Follow him

internet freedom vital in election

By Brett Phillippe
bphillippe@kansan.com

hen it comes to deciding whom to vote for in this upcoming election, most will vote for the one candidate who they agree with on the standard issues. In this election, we should be looking not only at the major issues, but maybe the least talked about issue of all: Internet freedom. For those who do not know about Internet freedom, it is best described as an issue that, according to Netfreedom.com, is opposed to all forms of censorship and content regulation on the Net. This issue is an interesting topic that dates back to earlier in Obamas presidency when the White House opposed the infamous Stop Online Piracy Act, or SOPA. This is a very important issue in todays world for many reasons, but mostly it is important because if we do not have freedom on the Internet, then it is a free fall on all our other freedoms. According to the Democratic Party Platform, the Obama administrations stance is the freedom of expression, assembly, and association online for people everywherethrough coalitions of countries and by empowering individuals and innovative technologies. This is an interesting and important issue because the Obama administration and Democrats in general shot down the SOPA Bill.

Now, as the Democrats have put forward an Internet freedom platform, so have the republicans. In their version of the Internet freedom platform, they insist that they will expand broadband access and support net neutrality, something that Republicans say Democrats have not done. Ultimately though, both sides look to be pushing to have our great nation experience Internet freedom. Both sides seem to be coming together on agreement on what is called the Multi-Stakeholder Model of Internet governance. According to an article on Mashable.com, which states, To preserve the Internet as a platform for commerce, debate, learning, and innovation in the 21st century. To me, this seems to be something that both sides need and will make us as a nation freer in the aspect of the Internet. Because, with some our freedoms being infringed on every day, it is good to finally see both sides coming together to agree on an issue as important as this. And with the freedom that this will give the citizens of our great nation, we can start to explore different avenues of the Internet and dive deeper into our creativity and exploration. And this is what we as a nation are shooting to get back to, an age of creativity and exploration. So, when you go to the voting booth in a couple of months, take heart in knowing that either side of the political aisle will be pushing hard for Internet freedom, and thus, bringing back the creative age. Phillippe is a senior majoring in American studies from Keller, Texas.

Dan the Bus Driver, as he is so affectionately called by the students, is an important centerpiece for the University of Kansas. What makes Dan unique is that he knows many of his students on a first name basis; something most other bus drivers cannot say, nor care to. One of the school mottos, A great place to be you immediately pops to mind. Dan was known for singing, whistling, and interacting with his passengers during their route to yet another class.

Facebook page with over 1,000 likes, it has certainly warmed my heart to see the outpouring of student support regarding this recent decision by MV Transportation with a petition containing over 3,000 signatures to bring Dan back. There are tons of stories on there about individual students first contact with Dan. All show a common trend: Dan made them feel welcome at KU. I help Admissions, and Scholarships during the recruitment process of new freshmen, and it was always nice when Dan would give me a shout-out during my campus tours. It just helped me drive home the point that KU

is as small as you want it to be not this huge university where students are just a number. As the contract KU has with MV Transportation expires soon (sometime in 2013), I am really questioning if this contract would be better suited in the hands of a company that genuinely prides itself on superb service. To my best recollection, service includes creating a positive relationship with your customers (in this case, students). Why terminate one of your best on that front?

ave you ever experienced that oh snap! moment when you realize you need to get your life together? Thats how I felt when Student Money Management Services talked to one of my campus groups about budgets and financial planning. The representative essentially scared the you-know-what out of us with talk of stolen identities, credit card scams and student loan debt, but what I was left with was this: if youre in college, youre too old to not know where your money goes. I, like many of my friends, had been living under the delusion that, hey, Im only 20 and Im in college. Im pretty much obligated to have terrible spending habits and no savings, right? Wrong. Spending has become much easier with the creation of credit and debit cards, ATMs and online shopping services. So easy that many students find themselves swiping their cards multiple times a day, yet being surprised when that dollar amount is dangerously low at the end of the month. Sure, the things for which the average college student has to budget may seem trivial: gas, food, clothes, etc. These seemingly small college expenses, however, are anything but. A 2012 report by apartmentguide.com shows that college students spend 40 percent of their budget on discretionary expenses, the biggest categories being food, technology and appearance. A morning coffee run or weekend bar crawl may only cost a few dollars each, but students spend about $100 per month on coffee,

and $50 per month on beer. In fact, college students spend $5.5 billion on alcohol annually. The average college student also owns six digital devices and spends a portion of monthly funds on convenience food purchases, such as fast food. Chances are you spend money on one or all of these things without a second thought. What Student Money Management Services stressed to us is that spending money on these categories is not a bad thing, as long as you know just how much. It was a classic example of someone who had no idea how much they were spending on non-essential items. Once I used budgeting tools to figure out how much I had spent at Jimmy Johns in 2012 (an amount I will not disclose purely out of embarrassment), I knew it was time for a change. If youre a student that is paying for all or a portion of your own tuition, books and housing, you likely have an idea of how closely expenses have to be monitored in order to make ends meet. Props to those students who have parttime jobs, are paying off student loan debt, or pay for their own education. You are a hard-working group that, in my opinion, doesnt get as much credit as you deserve. If, on the other hand, youre one

of those people that gets a check from mom and dad every month, youre at even higher risk of mismanaging your money, especially after college ends and that check stops coming. Budgeting for rent, utilities and a phone bill are not skills that come naturally; it takes practice with small daily purchases to become an expert budgeter. What I realized after Student Money Management Services presentation was that being young and in college was not an excuse for losing track of my money. I no longer wanted to be flirting with an empty bank account balance at the end of each school year, and having no idea where my summer savings had gone. I personally enjoy using Mint.com to keep track of my spending, but there are plenty of ways to keep finances in check. Whether its a personal finance advisor, an online tracking device or a spiral notebook, find a way to determine how much money youre currently spending, then how much you actually want to spend. Its a scary concept, I know. I still get nervous each time I look up how much Ive spent on Red Bull and cute shoes each month. But trust me, post-college-you will thank you. You might even have enough leftover each month to save up for that spring break boozefest youve been looking forward to (just kidding, but $5.5 billion annually! Can you really blame me?).

Former Salvadoran military official pleads guilty to lying

AssociAted Press
BOSTON A former Salvadoran military official accused of colluding in the 1989 slayings of six Jesuit priests admitted Tuesday that he lied to U.S. immigration officials, a guilty plea that could allow him to be extradited to Spain for prosecution in the killings. Inocente Orlando Montano was among 20 Salvadorans indicted in Spain last year for their alleged roles in the killings during El Salvadors 12-year civil war. Montano has denied any involvement in the assassinations. Montano, now 70, had lived in the Boston area for about a decade when he was arrested last year on immigration charges. Once a high-ranking military official, he said he had been working at a candy factory in the U.S. Under a deal with prosecutors, Montano pleaded guilty to three counts of immigration fraud and three counts of perjury. He admitted he lied when he applied for temporary protected status, a designation that allows some foreigners to stay in the United States if they are unable to safely return to their own country because of an armed conflict or other reasons. Government attorneys say sentencing guidelines call for up to two years in prison. Montanos lawyer said he expects to argue We believe he was involved in all the meetings in which the assassination was discussed, planned and ordered, she said said. In May 2011, a Spanish judge indicted 20 suspects and issued international arrest warrants. The U.S. government has not indicated whether it would extradite Montano to Spain. A spokeswoman for the Justice Department did not immediately respond to a request for comment Tuesday. Blum said the group is hoping the government will honor the extradition request while Montano is serving his U.S. prison sentence. There is no requirement and/ or law for them to wait until he finishes his sentence, she said. Assistant U.S. Attorney John Capin said Montano lied about his entry date into the United States so he could be eligible to receive temporary protected status. Montano, who was living in Everett when he was arrested, acknowledged in response to questions from a judge that he was a military officer in El Salvador and held the high position of vice minister for public security from 1989 to 1992. He admitted he lied on immigration forms. I wished to stay here to work, he said through an interpreter. In pleading guilty, Montano is not acknowledging or making any admissions to any crimes other than the immigration charges, said his lawyer, Oscar Cruz. He said the plea agreement does not preclude Montano from fighting extradition. Capin said prosecutors plan to argue at sentencing that Montanos lies were motivated by his desire to conceal human rights violations he participated in El Salvador. U.S. District Judge Douglas Woodlock said he will consider evidence on why Montano came to the United States when he sentences Montano. Motive is something that I will consider, Woodlock said. Miguel Montenegro, director of Salvadors Human Rights Commission, a nongovernmental body that aids victims and investigates allegations of rights violations, said the commission was eager to support anyone trying to prosecute Montano. We arent going to let up under any circumstances, he said. We support any effort, wherever it comes from, because we believe its right that people implicated in these types of acts are prosecuted, whether these types of crimes committed by these military men are prosecuted here in our country or in another country. The guilty pleas reinforce the message that the United States wont ignore alleged foreign crimes by people who seek to live here, said John Morton, director of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement. ICE will not allow our shores to be a place of refuge for those who persecute and oppress others, Morton said.

Hotel owners arrested for hiring illegal labor

KANSAS CITY, Kan. A federal prosecutor says the arrests of two suburban Kansas City hotel owners for knowingly employing illegal immigrants sends a signal that cutting corners to gain a competitive advantage wont be tolerated. U.S. Attorney Barry Grissom on Tuesday announced charges against 51-yearold Munir Ahmad Chaudary and his wife, 40-year-old Rhonda Bridge. Their two companies and a man who worked for them also were named in the indictment. Grissom says the Overland Park, Kan., couple owned Clarion Hotels in Overland Park and near Kansas City International Airport in Missouri. He says the government is seeking to have the hotels with an estimated combined value of around $5 million forfeited to the government. Chaudary and Bridge were expected to be released after making a court appearance Tuesday.

Montano, accused of colluding in the 1989 slayings of six Jesuit priests, admitted Tuesday, Sept. 11, 2012 in federal court in Boston that he lied to U.S. immigration officials, a guilty plea that could allow him to be extradited to Spain for prosecution in the killings. at the Dec. 18 sentencing hearing that the guidelines call for less. Carolyn Patty Blum, senior legal adviser for The Center for Justice and Accountability, a San Francisco-based human rights organization, said Montano was one of the most powerful military officials in El Salvador when the priests were killed.

Man killed by silicone injection in penis

AssociAted Press
NEWARK, N.J. (AP) A New Jersey woman pleaded not guilty Tuesday to causing a mans death with an injection of silicone he hoped would enlarge his penis a procedure experts cautioned doesnt work. Kasia Rivera, 35, could face up to ten years in prison if convicted of reckless manslaughter in the death of 22-year-old Justin Street. Street, a father of two, had gone to Rivera on May 5 seeking a penile enlargement procedure, which prosecutors say Rivera advertised for in fliers posted at local businesses. Rivera, who performed the procedures in her apartment, allegedly with no medical license or training, administered a silicone shot to Streets penis, according to prosecutors. Street died the next day. His death was ruled a homicide following an investigation and a medical examiners determination that he died of a silicone embolism. Rivera was indicted by a grand jury last month. Investigators believe Rivera may have conducted similar unauthorized procedures out of her East Orange apartment, but prosecutors said a search for witnesses, and a public plea for people to step forward, had not yielded any other clients to date. Rivera, who remains free on $75,000 bail, declined to comment through her court-appointed attorney Tuesday. Both Rivera and Street were from East Orange, and the case is being heard in Superior Court in neighboring Newark. Daniel Elliott, an associate professor of urology at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minn., said it was the first case hed heard of involving a silicone injection to the penis, but hes dealt with similar cases where patients had attempted to enlarge their penises with injections of fat or other substances. None of it works, Elliott emphasized, adding that there is no medical justification for the procedure. If there were a legitimate method for penile lengthening, Johnson & Johnson or Pfizer would have bought it up and made billions and billions of dollars worldwide, Elliott said. The fact that they dont means it does not exist. Enhancement procedures performed by unlicensed practitioners or people with no medical training are more commonly seen among women, Elliott said. Liquid silicone is sought on the black market by women seeking to enhance their figures, even though it is not approved for cosmetic injections. Besides liquid silicone, injections of substances including paraffin, petroleum jelly and hydrogel have been illegally used to enlarge womens breasts, hips and buttocks. In February 2011, a woman from London died after receiving cosmetic injections to enlarge her buttocks at a hotel near Philadelphia International Airport. Philadelphia police said 20-year-old Claudia Aderotimi died after she and a friend arranged online to receive injections. Aderotimi died after complaining of chest pain and difficulty breathing following the procedure.

Kansas athletics are sponsored by Adidas, which has seriously been lacking behind Nike in the imagination category for college uniforms. Nike has the pro-combat college uniform designs, so why not start be the guinea pig for a line of Adidas battleground gear? Sure, the early results might not be the greatest. For example, Oregon had to put on some pretty bad combinations a few years ago. However, in recent years Oregons uniforms have really come together for some pretty awesome combinations. I dont want a new uniform every week, but I think a fierce Jayhawk on one-half of the helmet, similar to Boise States alternative,

The new faces running the program cant immediately make the team a Bowl Championship Series champion, but they can make it look better. And by look better, I mean buy new uniforms. On the surface, there is nothing inherently wrong with the jerseys, but theres nothing exciting either. The uniforms look fine in person, but on television theres something slightly off about them. Kansas did have success in the relatively similar uniform scheme in the 2008 Orange Bowl. When I see the current uniforms, however, I am reminded of the two-year stretch in which Turner Gill had the reins, a stretch most fans would rather beat out of their memo-

The good news: The jerseys can be easily fixed. First, bring back the red home jerseys, and not just once a year against an early-season cream-puff game. Wear the jerseys for any big game. This is the color Kansas

would look great. At the very least it would be better than Missouris new attempt at the Tiger on its helmet. The baseball team wears a Jayhawk on their hats, so why cant the football team put one of the nations best mascots on its helmets? Although the white-onblue away uniform combination looks fine it is actually my current favorite combination for away games it has seen three of the worst defeats in recent Kansas history. These include 2011 losses against Oklahoma State (70-28, when the Cowboys pulled their starters in the second quarter), Texas A&M (61-7) and 2010s loss to Baylor University (55-7). The white-on-blue is like an ex with a lot of baggage it needs to

be dumped immediately. Will jerseys make the team any better? That I cant say, but I believe it was Sun Tzu who said Youve got to look good to play good. OK, I made that up. But new jerseys would make headlines, and when the product on the field is struggling, why not try and change the subject? I cant remember how Maryland finished last season (it was pretty bad), but I definitely remember the jerseys they wore that were modeled after the Maryland State Flag.

Former Jayhawk continues career in France

Geoffrey calverT
gcalvert@kansan.com The day after seeing her former Jayhawk volleyball teammates at the Crimson and Blue match, 2012 Kansas graduate Allison Mayfield left the country to begin her new life as a professional volleyball player in France. Mayfield, who holds the Jayhawks single season kills record with 462, signed a one-year contract to play for CSM Clamart in Clamart, France, a suburb of Paris. I submitted video of me playing to my agent, who then put it online, Mayfield said via email. Teams that are interested in picking up new players then go online and check out the videos for prospective players. Besides Clamart, Mayfield received offers from teams in Hungary, Southern Finland and Cyprus. She said she chose Clamart because they offered the best contract and living in France appealed to her. Although Mayfield arrived in France less than a month ago, she said Clamart has a homey feeling and most places she needs to go are within walking distance. Not having to work or take class outside of playing allows for a lot of free time, but I am finding fun ways to fill that free time exploring and experiencing is the substitution rule. In college, teams may substitute 15 times per set. Internationally, teams may substitute only six times per set. Kansas coach Ray Bechard said that if people watched the United States Olympic team last summer, they saw players who were able to play six positions on the court because of the substitution rules. Although collegiate players typically specialize in positions, Mayfield played all positions on the court in college, which made her appealing to professional teams. Redshirt junior Catherine Carmichael said the Jayhawk team is different this year because they dont have a player as versatile as Mayfield. Because the substitution rules in college are more relaxed, however, it allows the team members to work on specializing their positions more. Mayfield was a six-rotation player, and Sara (McClinton, sophomore outside hitter) and I arent at that spot yet, Carmichael said. But we have people who come in for us. I think with Sara and I giving good offense, then when we go out we can depend on our defenders to come in and play good defense for us as well. To play professional volleyball, Mayfield had to travel overseas because no national volleyball league exists in the United States. Mayfield said interest in collegiate volleyball might be the first step in getting a professional volleyball league started. You just dont see too many collegiate teams where volleyball is a revenue sport, Mayfield said. You do have some exceptions, like Nebraska, who sells out every match every year, but in general not enough people support collegiate volleyball, so that would be the first step. Bechard credited the Olympics with creating awareness about a lack of a professional league in the United States. He said theres a serious push to get a volleyball league started in the United States, but money will be the factor. In the late 90s Bill Kennedy out of Chicago made an attempt, and he had a lot of money, and he lost quite a bit of money, Bechard said. I think the players need to probably make some sort of salary, which means you need to get some form of sponsorship in place. Not only was Mayfield the Jayhawks single season kills leader, she also finished as the Jayhawks single season and career leader in total attempts. Carmichael said Mayfield was a special player because of her ability to get critical points. I think her presence is something that people looked for, for maybe just energy and being able to go to her for that one if you needed a kill on game point that one person you could depend on, Carmichael said.

Bleak outlook for season

By Mike Vernon
mvernon@kansan.com

1-11. That obtainable record is smacking everyone involved with Kansas football in the face. 1-11. The palm of defeat is hitting the fans, the players, the coaches, Kansas athletic director Sheahon Zenger, the faculty and local businesses. Everyone. Oh, and it stings a lot. Sure, the Kansas football team may improve this season. It certainly should. New coaches, a new (mediocre) quarterback, it will all take time, blah blah blah. Youve heard it all by now. The fact is, Kansas football may have to continue its free fall before it can bungee back. By that, I mean 1-11. The Jayhawks may be better by the seasons end better than they have been for the last two to three years but that doesnt mean the record will show it. Kansas almost certainly will not be favored in any of the games it plays this season from here on out. They will be underdogs to: TCU, Northern Illinois, Kansas State, Oklahoma State, Oklahoma, Texas, Baylor, Texas Tech, Iowa State and West Virginia. 1-11. It would take an upset and a big one at that if the Jayhawks hope to finish anything but 1-11. Dayne Crist will have to play well to give Kansas a chance to win another game, and if the quarterback doesnt look good against Rice and South Dakota State, why should anyone think hell be good against Texas or Oklahoma? For the record: completing 16 of 28 passes for 144-yards against Rice is not playing well. Its not even playing average or close to it. Last season, Rice allowed 278.7 passing yards per game. However, there were some positives to come out of Saturdays debacle. For instance, at least the players now know that what happened wasnt and isnt OK. Apparently, amazingly, it hasnt always been this way for the Jayhawks. The reaction from Coach Weis after a game was significantly different, junior linebacker Huldon Tharpe said. In years past theres kind of been some pats on the back and stuff like that. It was almost like a breath of fresh air. I want a coach thats hard on me and expects everything from us. You need a coach thats going to push you. Its not just about the players, hes pushing himself. He said he made plenty of mistakes. Good for Weis. He did what a coach should and challenged the team after a bad loss. He said one of his big teaching points after the game was telling them what happened wasnt OK. But my question is: How was it fathomable that these players did not know giving up a fourth-quarter lead to Rice wasnt OK? Im just going to guess that they knew. Maybe the difference is that theyre getting reminded of it now, and thats a good thing for Kansas football. Thats part of this long, boulderfilled route to recovery. Until then, the losses will pile on. 1-11, here Kansas comes. Edited by Sarah McCabe

crist to loosen up
farzin vousouGhian
Crist said his coaches words of encouragement helped him realize the talent that surrounds him. Crist knows that even as one of the leaders of the team, he should not feel the need to put the team on his back. When times get tough in the passing game, Crist can lean on running backs Tony Pierson and Taylor Cox for support. Ive gone out and said it publicly before, but with the way our running backs have been able to run the ball, its really about going out, running the offense and having fun, Crist said. Any great, winning offense is going to have a solid running game. Thats awesome that we have that. Now we have to build on the passing game, I think thats something that takes a lot of pressure off the quarterback. With the Jayhawks facing a big conference game, Crist will go into the game more focused and in a better state of mind. And should things go wrong, Crist knows he has players around him who he can rely on to move the offense. Whenever he needs me, Taylor or any other running back, well be there for him, Pierson said. He told me to just go out there and have fun and loosen up. Edited by Ethan Padway

Team regroups after loss, focuses on short game

trevor Graff
tgraff@kansan.com Kansas mens golf finished 12th at the Gene Miranda Falcon Invitational at Eisenhower Golf Course on the campus of the U.S. Air Force Academy. Chris Gilbert led the Jayhawks on day one with scores of 76 and 72, finishing the day tied for 36th Gilbert after playing the first six holes seven over par. He made a couple bad swings, a couple bad decisions and wasnt in very good shape, head coach Jamie Bermel said. But he played really solid over the last 30 holes. Gilbert wasnt the only Jayhawk who suffered a slow start on day one. It was just a terrible start overall, Bermel said. We brought it back a little bit in the second round, but we were just way too sloppy around the greens. There are a lot of putts on this course that you have to really pay attention to. The Jayhawks lack of experience with the course also may have contributed to their slow start. Most of the team was playing at Eisenhower Golf Course for the first time in Saturdays practice rounds. You have to know where the mountains are, because everything slopes away from the mountains, Bermel said. If youre heading down hill on the green away from the mountain, the putts are really fast. Sometimes thats hard to figure out. Bermel said the high altitude made finding the correct yardages difficult for players on all squads. For the Jayhawks, preparing for tomorrows final round yardages are key. We have to do a better job of getting the yardages down and trusting that the ball is going to fly that far in this thin air, Bermel said. Dylan McClure finished the day tied for 40th with a two-round total of 140. Stan Gautier and Alex Gutesha followed, McClure tying for 48th with scores of 151. Bryce Brown completed the Kansas lineup tying for 57th with a score of 152. McClure led the Jayhawks on day two with a final round score of 71, one under par at Eisenhower. He finished tied for 23rd with a tournament total of 220 on a course that featured tough pin placements. The course was a bit harder on day two, Bermel said. The pins were tougher, and thats why the scores werent quite as low as day one. The Jayhawks struggled on the greens and in gauging yardages in the altitude of the Rocky Mountains. We certainly need to putt the ball much better, Bermel said. Each guy needs to have a better idea of how far each club in his bag goes, because our ball control is not very good. Even with the altitude its not very good. Chris Gilbert finished the final round with a score of 75 tied for 41st. Bryce Brown finished tied for 49th with a final round with a 75. Stan Gautier and Alex Gutesha struggled in final round action. Gautier finished tied for 59th with a 77. Gutesha finished 63rd with a final round 78. The Jayhawks will focus on the short game as they prepare for next weeks Golfweek Conference challenge in Burlington, Iowa. It all starts everyday in practice, Bermel said. We have to work hard out there and get in the weight room and push ourselves so we can see results. They have to realize that 12th place is not OK, and 12th place is not where were going to finish and be happy about it. Edited by Sarah McCabe
