kmaude@kansan.com 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.

More potential new members than ever attend recruitment


Emily Donovan
edonovan@kansan.com
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 houses 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 were singing because its so stuck in our heads. Neenan isnt 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. Such a big part of being in Greek life comes from tradition and rituals, Neenan said. Thats what keeps Greek life here so strong. Now, Greek life is expected to be not just stronger but bigger. A record-breaking 956 women registered for the Panhellenic Associations 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. PHA has upped 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. 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. If we have similar numbers next year, well just be even more prepared, Neenan said. Its exciting. Each sororitys 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, theres no shortage of beds that can be made available. 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 saw a record-breaking number of men register for formal recruitment: 126. Mens formal recruitment, which took place over the weekend of June 28 through 30, is less intensive than womens formal recruitment. Most men who join fraternities do so through informal recruitment events throughout the school year. The 90 Theta girls have exactly 25 minutes to welcome, introduce, im-

press, 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 dont have it any easier, but their long days and enthusiasm are well-practiced. When you reflect on it weeks later, its 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

Lawrence

Police seize $1 million worth of meth


Cody Kuiper
ckuiper@kansan.com 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 Lawrences 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 I-35, and I-35 is one of the major trafficking points north out of Mexico for this type of 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 isnt 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 thats just irrational and obsessive. 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. Im glad theyre hitting the cartels, Grismer said. I dont think there is anything wrong with weed or organic drugs, but stuff thats synthetically made in a bottle in a ditch or a bathroom probably isnt good for anybody, so its 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. Edited by Madison Schultz

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 4. 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, selfconfidence, 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


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. Adriaunna 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. Bourne is being held on $1 million bond in the Barton County jail. Adriaunna's father, James Horton, has said Bourne once worked for him and that their children played together. Highway Patrol Sgt. Mike Watson declined Wednesday afternoon to say precisely where the body was found or describe the condition, The Joplin Globe reported. He said the search

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. Her grandfather, also named James Horton, described the girl who disappeared following the first day of school as a lively, active child. "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 grandfather said. 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.

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. 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 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. 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. "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. Union Pacific is making similar arguments in its court filing.

150 years ago today, Lawrence started rebuilding from Quantrill's raid. Two years later they chose to build KU on their highest hill. Both projects seem to have been highly successful!

Reliving Quantrill, 150 years later


Mark arce
marce@kansan.com the raid. I thought the new permanent exhibit was fascinating, said Caitlin Doornbos, a senior from Hutchinson, Kansas. She said the exhibit caught her attention because seeing the charred floorboards from houses in Quantrills 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. 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. Edited by Elise Reuter

The Wheel is ranked third best college bar by USA Today.

george mullinix/Kansan

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: Quantrills raid. The raid left 185 men and boys dead, and forever changed the city. For this years 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 Quantrills 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

The Wagon Wheel makes top college bars


katie mcbride
kmcbride@kansan.com At the Wagon Wheel, one of the Universitys 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 theyre 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. Theyll usually see someone they know or someone they went to school with, and theyll 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 hasnt changed even small things about the bar, such as the fact that they serve canned beer, because thats the way things have always been, and have always worked. 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. "Every KU student has some sort of story or experience that involves the Wheel; its a staple at KU," Martin said. "I think people enjoy the consistency, because it reminds us of our college years and time 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 theyve heard about it, and because its 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 doesnt plan on changing anything anytime soon. Im not trying to reinvent The Wheel, Farha said. I want to keep it rolling. Edited by Madison Schultz

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.

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.

Security guard wins appeal, gets new trial


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. 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 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. Johnston was on a trip to Costa Rica with a dozen other students in the school's Spanish club. Associated Press

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. 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, Bradley!" 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 pardon 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

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. "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. Gabriel Schoenfeld, a senior fellow at the conservative Hudson

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


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 treelined 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-yearold," 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 about. "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. 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 grittier part of town, chose Lane at random and that one of the boys "thinks it's all a joke." 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-yearold 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." Teammate Sam Malchar said Lane was someone who could always be counted on. "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.

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 samesex 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. Then-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. 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


ASSOCIATED PRESS
GRANTS PASS, Ore. Running out of money to fight 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 parts of its budget. That is giving 2010, but cut it to $290 million in the agency a blank check and it just 2011 and raised it to $315 million keeps putting more zeros on it." in fiscal 2012, according to Forests The mandatory budget cutting Service documents.

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. 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. 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. 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. 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. Randy Cree bales prairie hay on a farm near Big Springs, Kan., Wednesday, Aug. 21.

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 Universitys 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. James Swartz graduated last May with a bachelors degree in Film and Media Studies and a minor in journalism as a sixth-year senior. Swartz didnt learn about the locked-in tuition rate until he was already enrolled. I spent some time hopping between schools and it was something that wasnt 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. Swartz didnt 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. Looking back at his education, Swartz is glad he took additional time to graduate in spite of higher fees. 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 dont 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 dont 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. Edited by Madison Schultz

Renowned sculptor dies in Kansas home


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. Jim Brothers died Tuesday at his home in Lawrence where he had been receiving hospice care, said Audrey Bell, a funeral director at Warren McElwain Mortuary in Lawrence, Friends and colleagues said he had cancer. 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 Dorrell, 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." 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 monuments 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 death bed."

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 around 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 lifethreatening, but 20 of the 36 people onboard, including the driver, were taken to hospitals for treatment of injuries ranging from bruises to head and neck injuries, Dickinson help after the bus overturned. said.

Student raises recovery funds


emma legault
elegualt@kansan.com The University now has a different meaning for Eleanor Cizek. For her, its more than just a campus, classes and a home away from home. Today, its 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 havent caught up quite yet. And after her family learned their insurance had cut off and wouldnt cover the one-onone, intensive therapy she needs, they sprang into action. The Joy Recovery Project, which takes its name from Cizeks 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. More than 1,000 of Cizeks friends and family members gathered at a Joy Recovery Project fundraiser on Aug. 10 in Cizeks hometown to help her meet that goal.

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.

SYRIA

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 gurneys with oxygen masks covering their faces. Activists and the opposition leadership gave widely varying 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. 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. 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. 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." "If the Syrian government has nothing to hide and is truly committed to an impartial and credible investigation of chemical weapons use in Syria, it will facilitate the U.N. team's immediate and unfettered access to this site," Earnest said. 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. 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 Lukashevich 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. The Local Coordination Committees activist group said hundreds of people were killed or wounded.

National Archives releases final 340-hour installment of recordings of Nixons private phone calls and meetings
ASSOCIATED PRESS
YORBA LINDA, Calif. President Richard Nixon had just delivered his first major national address on the Watergate scandal that would 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 burglars tied 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 prodded 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 Schoelkopf, 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.

Jay Pagel, a staffer at the Marine Mammal Stranding Center in Brigantine N.J., counts the teeth of a dead dolphin that washed ashore earlier in the day Wednesday in Spring Lake, N.J., before he brought it to the center for an examination. About 230 dolphins have died off the East Coast of the U.S. this summer.

German snorkeler dies after shark attack


ASSOCIATED PRESS
HONOLULU A German woman who lost her arm in a shark attack died Wednesday, one week 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. Lutteropp was snorkeling up to 100 yards off Palauea Beach at the resort community of Makena when the shark bit off her right arm. 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. 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 neckhigh water and took Lutteropp from Moore, carrying her limp body out of the water. They said Wednesday they've been praying for her. "I was really hoping it would be a miracle and she would pull through," Moore said. Grisaffi said he's been replaying the ordeal in his mind. "Rick risked his life," said Grisaffi, 61, of Laguna Beach, Calif. "Did I do enough? Should I have grabbed my fins and swam out with him?"

Part-time job fair showcases opportunities


Students looking for employment should stop by the University Career Centers 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 oncampus 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. Newton said the Career Center will also host the University Career Fair in February, which will feature more than 100 employers. For those unable to make it to the fair, the University Career Center will have part-time jobs posted on their website at career.ku.edu. 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. Elly Grimm

Research team to develop bullyprevention 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. The state passed a law in 2007 requiring such policies but some districts have faced obstacles, partly because intervention projects can be expensive. "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." 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." 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. Associated Press

No injuries following Georgia school shooting


ASSOCIATED PRESS
LITHONIA, Ga. A man who allegedly exchanged gunfire with police at an Atlanta-area school didn't seem to have any friends and rarely talked about his family or past during the months he lived with a couple who serve as pastors at a small church. 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. "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 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. 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 through 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. 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 from inside the school and they returned fire, police said. Police came into the school office, and Hill surrendered. 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. 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. 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. "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.

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, Craigslist-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 Face-

book 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.

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. The court opinions show that when the NSA reported its inadvertent gathering of Americanbased 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. 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 NSAs surveillance programs. This court is troubled that the governments revelations regarding NSAs 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 governments 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 governments upstream collection of data taken from internal U.S. data sources was unconstitutional. 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 programs technical operation. They were having a discussion and a light bulb went on, the official said. 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

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.

on the NSAs 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 governments 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. The NSA disclosed that it gathers some 250 million internet communications each year, with some 9 percent from these upstream

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 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


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 cant be the only one who puts on The Nationals soothing songs when its 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 Im 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 Im 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 dont love upbeat music as well, I just

If Batman was in a frat Superman was in a Sorority. I just saw a little old lady with a cane walking up 14th. If she can do it, I think we can all suck it up, we are obviously a lot more able bodied. Picked up a penny for good luck and my Jewish boyfriend stole it out of my hand... Oh stereotypes. Being an engineer major is like being a vegetarian, you can choose to do it, but you dont need to let the whole world know you do. White girls wish they were my shade of natural tan. Dude...I think my butt just beat boxed because it wasnt a fart. My KU campus calves are the reason I cant fit in my skinny jeans. Someone told me today that the Germans are leading philosophers. Isnt everyone a pretty good philosopher after a few beers? Im a ginger and I went outside without sunscreen. I should not have done that. I SHOULD NOT HAVE DONE THAT! Theres no ladylike way to spit out a bug that flies in your mouth I always thought the statue in front of the religion building was a praying Dumbledore. Was that just me? Just walked in on a girl eating frosting while pooping. Im so relieved to know that Im not the only one who does that. I can always tell when somebody is from Kansas because the clothes they wear to church are clothes I would wear out. I wonder how many vulgar submissions the FFA editor gets every day I want to use the Chancellors restroom before I graduate. Just to see how the other half lives. That awkward moment when you think youre alone in the bathroom and then you hear someones phone go off... You know you live in a scholarship hall when you find yourself yelling about Game of Thrones and feminism over lunch. Just once, I would love to see a video of me over the weekend where I sound like I can sing decently. Say hello to a bus driver today! If I had a long beard, I would braid and bead it like Jack Sparrow. Or maybe tie it like Dumbledore. Or throw it over my shoulder like a continental soldier. Im wearing only one headphone pod, not for the chance to look hip and trendy, but because we cant have nice things, and because my cat is a monster. Shout-out to all the maintenance workers here at KU! You all are so good at your jobs and are always so friendly to us. Thanks for being great! How many days of school left?

pposites attract. Weve 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 thats obvious. Although broadening your musical knowledge is a good thing, a secondary benefit to having opposing tastes is that being

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. 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, Im 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 Im stuck inside of a pinball machine.

While I wouldnt 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) mopey 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 its okay to simply say, I dont 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 room-

mate. 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 roommates taste in music whatever it may be falls on the other end of the spectrum from your own, dont 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 Unpaid internships not to students who nanny in summer always worth sacrifice

ts not a pill, meticulously-devised calendar manipulation or semimedieval-probably-illegal-in-a lot-of-countries device. Its all-natural, gluten-free, and FDA-approvednot 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 nannying with common beginner phrases such as, How hard could this possibly be?; Hey, this sure beats working at the mall!; and the timehonored classic: Im 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 dominion over the fridge and remote (see babysitting) conned me.

who (to my complete bewilderment) dont 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 culde-sacs to make it to whichever country club was hosting the days 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 Slurpee 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 bosss 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 youve 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 semesterand may your summer job exist as but a stepping-stone.

ike 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 Ive had since high school. I didnt pay rent. There were no extra travel costs. Working for free didnt 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 didnt 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 isnt 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. Its 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 overwhelmed 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,

kklein@kansan.com

and then I learned from them. My byline was accompanied by staff writer, not intern. I worked like any other reporter in the newsroom and thats a good thing. Unfortunately, especially in the case of print journalism, companies cannot afford to take on paid interns. 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 I ask?). 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. In this economy its difficult to demand that unpaid internships be abolished, but I imagine that there are many students disadvantagedor even taken advantage ofby 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. Companies shouldnt 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 cant afford to spend money on credit hours while working for free. Grants should be established for companies who cant 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 shouldnt be forced to choose between either paying interns or dismantling their internship program.

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 lets 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, thats great send your recommendations my way. But I feel that for many of us, these experiences are few and far between. I admit that college students today dont read enough, and we suffer for it. 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. It wasnt 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

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 fallout-of-your-chair hilarious, joyful, melancholy, revelatory, or provoke any combination of emotions. I have laughed out loud at Ignatius Reillys antics in A Confederacy of Dunces, felt Kates deep loneliness in Wittgensteins Mistress and

loved Mario Incandenza like a little brother in Infinite Jest. You can guess the rest of the story. Since then Ive read DFWs 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 doesnt

fully convince you of the beneficial effects of reading. Im 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 Ill focus on a book that has changed my way of thinking. Ill introduce it to you and explain why I think its 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 dont want my columns to sound didactic or offer some saccharine moral; I want to make you think. Maybe youll even want to read a few more books.

Experienced staffer gives advice to incoming students


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, Im not saying I know all about L-town; these are just a few of my favorite eateries and ways to get information on campus. First things 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: Dempseys Burger Pub, Encore Caf, 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 Maddys Homemade Ice Cream shop. Always go on Tuesday nights because its buy one, get one free with your student ID. My favorite flavor is Pumpkin Pie during Thanksgiving time. If youre looking to combine

studying and eating, my favorite place to visit is Java Break. Its 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, toppings and milk to mix together in a Chinese takeout box. And the best part, it doesnt leak! If you want to get involved on campus, I suggest looking at all the organizations on rockchalkcentral. com. Its 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 recreation.ku.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, Im speaking directly to the new students on campus: Parking stinks. Be mindful of the signs when entering a parking lot. If its 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 parking.ku.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 dont 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 dont 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 UDKs accounts for news @UDK_News, play @UDKplay, sports @UDK_ Sports, and opinions @UDK_ Opinion. And if you want, send a follow my way. Thats about all I have for you at this moment. Cheers to the new school year. Jordan Warren is a senior majoring in journalism from Overland Park. Follow her on Twitter @jordan_mechele.

Hydraulic fracturing pollutes water with unknown chemicals, carcinogens

ydraulic fracturing or fracking has been flowing in and out of the public spotlight for years. Its been touted by the Obama administration and the industry as the savior of American energy dependence but its no silver bullet. The cost is insane and the payoff 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 its 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 isnt fully aware of whats inside this chemical solution. The Bush/ Cheney Halliburton Loophole more or less exempted fracking from EPA regulation on drinking water sources. The fracking industrys 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, Pennsylva-

nia. The chemicals that arent successfully pumped from the soil are draining into drinking water aquifers and other fresh water sources. 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. Among all the rampant censorship, analysis, and debate, keep in mind that another source of natural gas wont cut prices at the pump. Natural gas isnt 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 fracking is worth the costs or not, one thing is absolutely clear: fracking is at best a controversial Band-Aid. Our reserves may last us another decade but its 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 isnt renewable, isnt sustainable, and only carries a risk of hurting ourselves even more. Wil Kenney is a sophomore majoring in journalism from Leawood. Follow him on Twitter @WilKenney.

Energy company Cuadrilla Resources Ltd. has temporarily suspended drilling at an exploration site in southern England following protests from residents and environmentalists opposed to shale gas extraction. The company said Aug. 16 it had stopped work on police advice, but would resume as soon as it is safe to do so.

Avoid unhealthy foods and choose one of these easy low-calorie recipes
Dani Brady
dbrady@kansan.com 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 drivethrough 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. Edited by Lauren Armendariz

ne of the freshest independent films to hit the circuit this summer just made its way to Liberty Hall in Lawrence. This film is none other than "The Way, Way Back. It features the talents of Toni Collette, Steve Carell and Sam Rockwell and introduces 14-year-old Liam James. It tells the story of Duncan's (James) summer vacation with his mother, her overbearing boyfriend and his daughter.

the budding one with the girl next door played by AnnaSophia Robb, Duncan slowly opens up and begins to finally find his place in the worldall during a summer he will never forget. 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 is too likeable to look away. If you enjoy coming-of-age stories about summer vacations, or just love Sam Rockwell and Steve Carell, I suggest making a trip down to Liberty Hall and catching this flick as soon as possible.

Queens of the Stone Age album features variety of style, tone


Tom Dehart
tdehart@kansan.com 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 havent 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. With the bands 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 Metals 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. 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 recordsand its a definite upside to this album. The guitar parts that 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 Tshirts. 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.

Dominating the scene 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. "What do I do for a living?" Conway says in the premiere episode. "I live for a living." The show is mostly about man's struggle against nature. But in Conway's story line, a frequent adversary is "the government." In season one's second episode, titled "Mayhem," Conway opens his mailbox to find an officiallooking 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."

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 couldat the very leastappreciate. 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 isnt 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 yearsits a good thing they made something worth listening to. Edited by Lauren Armendariz

A year ago, a botched 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 northeastern 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

etflix 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 could place in a specific category, with actors that were not really up to par with Kevin Spacey, and just downright stupid plot lines, audi-

ences had their doubts reinstated and were frustrated as to why Netflix couldnt 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 isnt the acting, the story line, or even the writing that makes the show. Rather, it is how the show doesnt 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 dont know if it is because it is loosely based off a true story, or its just the creators brilliant mind, but whatever it is, its 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. Edited by Lauren Armendariz

California paternity bill stalled


ASSOCIATED PRESS
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. Patric says he hasn't seen the 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.

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.

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. 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. 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." "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 consummate 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 wingsuit 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 Jacksons former wife and mother of two of his children, leaves Los Angeles County Superior Court after testifying in the negligence lawsuit filed by Jacksons mother, Katherine Jackson, against AEG Live Aug. 14 in Los Angeles.

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 Jacksons care.

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. "I didn't understand why he would come in twice in one week," 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." 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. Rowe, 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. She and the pop star were married from 1996 to 1999. She is testifying in a lawsuit filed by Jackson's mother against AEG Live LLC, the promoter of Jackson's ill-fated "This Is It" comeback concerts. 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.

Change in technology threatens drive-in theaters, but it didnt stop a new venue in Ohio.
ASSOCIATED PRESS
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. They converted to digital last year, the first of the state's 29 driveins to do so. 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 flatscreen 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. 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, familyrun 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 hightech 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." "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. "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."

Moviemakers 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. 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. 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 "as impersonal as a dentist's office," an ironic barb for a director who spent much of his career lampooning the bourgeoisie. "Bunuel 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." Nonetheless, a visit to the house in the neighborhood of Del Valle awakens images of the life Bunuel lived inside. 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.

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 Bunuels family, has opened the house to a public long fascinated with his work.

Associated Press

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. Built in the early 1950s by architect Arturo Saenz, the building is modeled after Madrid's Student Residence, which was known as a

cultural hub that nurtured, among others, Spanish painter Salvador Dali and poet Federico Garcia Lorca, both once close friends of Bunuel. "In a way, he was nostalgic about Spain," said Javier Espada, the director of the Centro Bunuel 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?"

COMMENTARY

bschuster@kansan.com

By Blake Schuster

f 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. Thats him 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 jog 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 couldnt really sleep. Perhaps thats 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, well 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. Hes ready to go for this season, as ready as hes 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. Ill be bruised up a lot. So just give the man a minute. After all, its these moments when Sims can close his eyes and take a second to remember why hes running so hard. I want to be at the top of the Big 12, Sims said. Be the leading rusher. And heres 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 Henleys Kansas career record of 3841 rushing yards from 1993-96 a record Sims would be much closer to breaking if he hadnt been suspended for three games in 2012. At last seasons pace, he would just need to play all 12 games this year to accomplish the feat. This is not where his head is. Sims is reaching for an accolade that would put him alongside conference greats Daniel Thomas, Jamaal Charles, Cedric Benson, Darren Sproles and Ricky Williams as the best running back in the Big 12. Sims isnt the fastest running back in the stable like those names were. Even he admits that distinction belongs to Tony Pierson and its 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. Hes faster, running backs coach Reggie Mitchell said. Hes got a really good feel for how things are being blocked. He just looks really good right now. 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. And he could do it. He just needs his rest.

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.

Jake just had to sit for a year while he was biding his time for his opportunity to play, Weis said. Theyre totally different situations, other than the fact that theyre coming in new.

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. Powlus 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 theyve already noticed the results of that hard work in camp. I think he feels really comfortable with the guys hes throwing to, Powlus said.

mgoodwin@kansan.com 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 didnt. 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 wasnt 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. 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. That difference is health. Crist

With those weapons, and a few others, like speedy junior college transfer Rodriguez Coleman, Heaps cant wait to get the season going. Hes 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. Im surprised he didnt 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 dont care how we get it done, Heaps said. We just want to win. Edited by Madison Schultz

or 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 baseballs golden boys. The 2003 Royals were a team whose motto 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 bullpen. 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 werent built from players who showed theyd 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. So here the Royals sit in 2013: A record above .500 and a position to steal a wild card spot. The teams makeup is much of the same

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 Francona 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. The Royals of 2003 are gone, as none of

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. Edited by Madison Schultz

Jayhawks aim for repeat tournament appearance


bhillix@kansan.com A year after its best season in school history, the Kansas womens 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 Jarmoc. Even with so many players returning, head coach Ray Bechard knows success next season isnt a guarantee. 2011 didnt equal 2012, and 2012 doesnt 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. While Kansas lost two important players from last seasondefensive specialist Morgan Boub and middle blocker Tayler Tolefreethree freshmen are ready to step in and contribute right away. Emma Hanson, Tayler Soucie, and Cassie Wait come to the program with impressive rsums. Hanson, an outside hitter from Sioux Falls Washington High School in South Dakota, was a state runnerup and a member of the All-State team. 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

Theyve 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 newcomers 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 Jarmoc and outside hitter Sara McClinton on the All-Big 12 Preseason Team. Kansas, along with Texas and Iowa State, led the Big 12 with three players on the Preseason 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. Im excited and I know the staff is excited to get going, Bechard said. There has been a lot of anticipation and the kids have been working hard this summer, but we dont 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. Horesji has arguably the best atmosphere in the Big 12 to play a game. Its something you should do at least once before you graduate. Edited by Elise Reuter

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. Selfs father, Bill Self Sr., a high school athletics cornerstone for 27 years in Oklahoma, introduced his son while the younger Selfs 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."

The 2013-14 season hasnt yet begun and already Kansas coach Bill Self is adding to his impressive resume. On Aug. 5, Self was inducted into the Oklahoma Sports Hall of Fame located in Oklahoma City. Self, a native of Edmond, Okla., began his head-coaching career at Oral Roberts University in 1993 before moving down the road to Tulsa in 1997 and was named the 1981 Player of the Year in Oklahoma while in high school. 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

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. Hes 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 years 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 isnt. I want to hear me talk, not him, head coach Charlie Weis said. Hell probably hear that several times in the next couple of weeks. Combs even purchased a yo-yo to curb his room-filling chatter. I just be yo-yoing around, so I dont 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 doesnt try to eradicate the flavorful identities on the field. On the field I dont 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 dont mind guys trash talking, I kind of like it to tell the truth, but theres 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. Ill say something crazy that makes everybody laugh, I dont 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. Its 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. consecutive games, Combs is ready We just coming in, trying to put to step into a role on or off the field KU back where it should be like and has the makeup to do so. that Orange Bowl feeling, Combs Im just here to play my role, said.

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 its the right place for him. I wanted to go to a program that was on the rise or was sort of losing, Combs said. Combs said Kansas came into the picture relatively late. He didnt even know who Charlie Weis was

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 its 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. Thats all I can say. Edited by Hayley Jozwiak

Sendish brings leadership, versatility to team


Max goodwin
mgoodwin@kansan.com 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 offfield 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 thats really been a leader for us and hes been a pleasure to work with. Hes always just taking care of business and hes 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. Its a role that Sendish, a 6-foot, 187-pound native of Waldorf, Md., is excited about. He describes the nickelback as a hybrid. Ill have to play a linebacker role at times, Ill have to blitz, Ill have to be in coverage, Sendish said. Its 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, It 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

Junior nickelback Cassius Sendish, right, trains with redshirt freshman safety Tevin Shaw at fall camp on Aug. 16. Sendish transferred to Kansas from Arizona Western Community College. another defensive back rather than taking one away. Weis is confident in Sendishs 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. Its 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. Maturity is something Sendish learned in his time at Arizona Western Community College. 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, hes 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 Ive obviously learned my lesson, Sendish said. Kansas tight ends coach Jeff Blasko was in charge of recruiting Sendish out of Arizona Western, and Blasko said it didnt 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. Im ready to play at this level, Sendish said. Its just been a dream of mine, so Im ready to take advantage of it. Edited by Madison Schultz

TRACK AND FIELD from CHAMPIONSHIP PAGE 1


The University of Kansas womens track and field team now safely led the team standings by 15 points, thanks to Vollmers 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 teams 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. Lindsays 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. Redwine said that the women worked hard to achieve their goal by putting the team first. 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 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 itd be tough in Oregon. There were nothing but smiles on everyones faces, Volmer added. Vollmer is open-minded for the next season. The sky is the limit.

Kansas to see improvement on offense, defense


connor oberkrom
coberkrom@kansan.com

6)

This defense is filled with leaders

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 raved-about Kansas defensive player, junior nickelback/cornerback Cassius Sendish. While the defense might not shut any teams down, its going to cause some disruptions in the Big 12, which currently has one of its weakest quarterback classes in the last five years.

1)

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 nickelbased 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 Marquel 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)

Weis will give everyone at least two noteworthy sound bites

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 dont 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 havent produced a sample size to ease any doubt. Junior quarterback Jake Heaps will certainly be an upgrade from last seasons quarterback quarrel, but its hard to believe hell jump in there and make an immediate impact.

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.

Memorial Stadium will break the 50,000 barrier attendance mark at least once this season
Perhaps 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 wont be able to discern if youre in Manhattan or Lawrence.

8)

3)

James Sims will become Kansas alltime leading rusher this season

9)

The offensive line is going to be demonstrably better

Running back James Sims carries the ball against Texas Tech Oct. 1, 2011. Sims finished the game with 84 yards and a touchdown. Sims comes into the 2013 season 1,359 yards from breaking the team career rushing record held by June Henley.

Kansan file photo

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

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 hes 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, theyve shown they can commit to their roles and be the unit that the offense needs to propel the team forward.

While 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 wasnt the case last season.

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 clich 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 seasons players didnt, but this seasons team seems to be more. This seasons team is encouraging and has a huge influx of raw talent compared to the season before. I think Kansas can get a couple of lowscoring games to swing in their favor for four wins in the Big 12. Edited by Dylan Lysen

A place to call home, for you and your pets.

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.

Jayhawks look to improve on last seasons success


STELLA LIANG
sliang@kansan.com e Kansas soccer team returns to the eld this season with high expectations, hoping to build on last seasons 10-8-2 nish. e Jayhawks were picked to place h in the Big 12 conference preseason 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 Francis going, I think they are de nitely capable of competing to win the conference, Francis said. I think that has to be our goal going into it. e Jayhawks retain much of their experience from last year with seven returning starters. Seven newcomers have also been added to the team, including Aurlie Gagnet, who is currently playing for the French U19 National team. Returning players include senior Caroline Kastor, junior Jamie Fletcher and redshirt sophomore Liana Salazar. Francis said Kastor will be Kastor a handful for opposing teams this year and Fletcher will anchor the mid eld. He also said having Salazar back a er her redshirt year will bene t the team because she is a creative player. Other players returning are senior Madi Hillis, 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. ree 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 weve got some older players in each line, somebody in the back, somebody in the mideld, somebody up front that we will look to to organize that line of the eld. With so much time o from competition, Francis said the team is a little rusty in fundamentals. He said plays arent as crisp or clean as they need to be, but that will improve as the season progresses. On the other hand, Francis said the teams 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 elds nine teams that compete in womens soccer. Defending conference champion West Virginia was picked in the preseason poll to repeat its feat. e 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. e conference schedule includes games against all eight Big 12 foes, including a trip to Morgantown, W. Va. to face West Virginia. e 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 Paci c. Edited by Elise Reuter

Shooting raises campus safety concerns


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 homicide in the city of Lawrence in but you can always prevent it. For the past 10 years.

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. Dont carry your drivers license or other form of ID inside your checkbook. Dont 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.

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

Lollapalooza
The one-stop festival to get your live music fill for the summer.

LOCATED AT THE OREAD HOTEL



Thousands gather to watch their favorite bands perform live at Lollapalooza in Grant Park in Chicago. Lollapalooza is a three-day music festival in downtown Chicago every year.

t any music festival, youre 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 buttondown shirt. The lyrics seep out of the speakers and slide over the faces of the masses causing you to sway along with the song. Its an involuntary movement. Your mind is elsewhere. Perhaps dreaming about Phoenix taking the same stage in a few hours, or reliving Saturday nights session with Queens

of the Stone Age, yet your body is grooving. Thats 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. Its not cold, but still chilling, and its 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 Lollapalooza from the bunch. No, this is more of an added perk. A welcomed gift that returns over and over again. As Ezra Koenig, the New York-bred front man for Vampire Weekend, pointed out during his set, other major metropolises dont do this. New York doesnt shut down Central Park to bring more than one hundred artists across all platforms of music to town. Los Angeles doesnt pack 160,000 people onto Santa Monica Pier at once.

The University Daily Kansan


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 cant-miss event for Kansas students looking to close out the summer on a high note. Its my favorite weekend of the year, said Jason Wenk, a senior from Chicago. Its 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 youre looking for that first moment that makes you feel as if youve left planet Earth, shut off every priority you had and can just float and hum along with the beat. Its somewhat overwhelming to dig

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 Souldiers serenading Chicago during an encore performance of the song All These Things That Ive Done. One of the not-so-rare moments when the crowd at Lollapalooza morphs into a mass of maniacs combined for a common cause. Instead, Wenk made his way over to Perrys 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 youre getting too close to Perry's when the crowd starts to look younger, clothing becomes more optional and the thumping bass overpowers any conversation. Perrys combines the ultimate dance party with the ultimate peoplewatching position. Teenage girls draped in tutus from their youth or someone elses

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 its 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

Senate

Ad Astra begins platform progress


Kaitlyn Klein
kklein@kansan.com Our brand has changed, Tetwiler said of Student Senate in an email. The way we market our student government will change as well. Results for the other platforms wont come as quickly, but Tetwiler was confident that KU Parking and Transit would work with Student Senate to improve the parking program. 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. After a summer of tweets, emails, phone calls and work with KUs 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. Edited by Dylan Lysen

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. Additionally, Senate plans to have its first public forum in early September.

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 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. Its going to drive students out of college because theyre 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 doesnt 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. Edited by Tara Bryant

Students with loans for the 20132014 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 20132014 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

For the 2013-2014 school year, Stafford loan interest rates will be: 3.9 percent for undergraduate students 5.4 percent for graduate students 6.4 percent for parents

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 vehicles 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 access the service through Parkmobiles mobile website, parkmobile.com, or can call Parkmobiles toll-free phone number to utilize the service. Im 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. Parkmobile is available at all longterm meters, as well as all of lot 94 at 11th and Mississippi (west of the stadium). Edited by Tara Bryant

The new Parkmobile smartphone app makes meter parking easier near campus. KU Parking and Transit will use this new meterpayment option this semester.

How to use Parkmobile

1. Find Parkmobile sign or sticker. 2. Use the Parkmobile app or website to enter zone number and other parking info. 3. Optionally activate push notification that will send 15 minutes before your parking meter expires.

Business

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 drivethrough originated from owner Christian Walter who thought of installing the convenient feature after realizing the hassle of going into grocery and convenience stores. 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 time and not many students have had the chance to try it out, there has been plenty of traffic according to the management. 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. Weve been very careful that we are in full compliance with state and local laws, Schloemer said, concerning the regulation and management of the drive-through. On top of that, the drive-through

People still get IDd and we make sure that everything runs smoothly, Schloemer said. A lot of people are very excited about it. Bhakta said that the new convenience brings something different to the community. The big businesses in town are sometimes hard to compete with because of their prices, but selling liquor in a different way is a great way to attract people, Bhatka said. Schloemer said that the store has

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 isnt 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. And as he did, the calming cool from Lake Michigan swept over the crowd, picked up the worn out spirits and gave them the energy to make it through one more set. The same as it had been all weekend. You just never noticed it. Edited by Dylan Lysen

Eating right

Planning provides key to healthy dorm food


Elly Grimm
egrimm@kansan.com For many students, college is their first time being away from home and experiencing freedomand 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

choices that will fuel you. 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. Looking into this in advance will help make the choice easy and painless, she said. 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 its just a walk. It will decrease the time youre sitting around and prevent you from mindless munching, she said. Edited by Maddie Schultz

Recipes
Breakfast Burrito: Scramble two eggs in a microwave-safe dish with 1 tablespoon milk and 2 tablespoons shredded cheese. Microwave for 2-3 minutes or until eggs are set. Wrap in a whole-grain tortilla and top with salsa. Yogurt Parfait: Place 1 cup Greek yogurt (such as Chobani) in a bowl or cup; top with 1 cup Kashi GoLean Cereal and 1 cup fruit. Sandwich: On two pieces of whole-grain bread, add three slices of lean deli meat, one slice of cheese and vegetables of choice. Instead of mayo, spread mustard or hummus on the bread. Trail Mix: Combine Kashi GoLean Cereal, your choice of nuts (such as almonds, pistachios, pecans, walnuts, etc.), dried fruit and dark chocolate chips. Portion into snack-sized baggies for convenience.

bphillippe@kansan.com The art of fine dining is changing in Lawrence. Starting Labor Day, the once downtown restaurant mainstay Tellers will look a bit different to customers and will be under a new name Merchants Pub 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 hadnt 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

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 was 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 getting four beers for $4. Come Labor Day, customers will get the chance to experience the new-look downtown restaurant and its extensive beer collection.

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 thats 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 Stokers 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

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 Upadhyayula. A junior from Leawood, Upadhyayula 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. She doesn't view boxing as masculine turf. In fact, her classes are stocked with men and women alike, 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. "I don't think that stereotype is going to be there for much longer," Upadhyayula said. The first class is free and can be scheduled online.

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.

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

Was All Talk Kurt Vile Kurt Vile hasnt 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.

Gotham Animal Collective Animal Collective is the kind of band that grows on you. If at first you dont 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 cursestrange time signatures, odd effects, looping sounds and ethereal 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 bands 2012 release of the album Centipede Hz. Its 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

Domino Records

XL Recordings

Stormur Sigur Ros Its always an emotional ride while listening to Sigur Ros. Lead singer Jonsis 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, popsounding 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 bands seventh studio album. Stormur is an uplifting song, one that speaks to a listener the way that Sigur Ross music is always meant to communicate with its listeners. The Three of Us

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.

Dead Oceans

Hellcat Records

To Have and To Have Not Tim Timebomb It appears that another member of Rancid has decided to cover Billy Braggs 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. Armstrongs 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.

Daft Life / Columbia Records Matador Records Paper Bag Records

Pentimento music company

Domino Records

True Thrush Dan Deacon Like Viles Was All Talk, Dan Deacons 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.

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 Tail bring forth a seriously creative craft that is so personally Queen of the Stone Ages, 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.

Streetlight Manifesto The Three of Us is the first track off Streetlight Manifestos 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 Kalnokys lyrics are still packed with strong morals, virtues and empowering statements that have the ability to bring truth and reality to listeners everywhere.

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 thats 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 Galaxys 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.

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 doesnt 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. Its 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 viceor your higher education textbooks.

Fall series premieres break boring summer lull


By Kaitlyn Hilgers
khilgers@kansan.com

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. GrEys Anatomy Sept. 26 (ABC) Also premiering on Sept. 26 is the newest season of the hospital soap opera Greys Anatomy. Ending, as always, on a dramatic note, we will know Derek and Merediths baby and how they are as parents, what will happen with the Arizona and Callie mess, and finally the aftermath of the shocking (too soon?) death of Richard. 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. Marvels Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D Sept. 26 (ABc) But if you are looking to start something new, be sure to check out Marvels Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D on ABC. After premiering the first episode at this years 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. 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 ABCs 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. Edited by Dylan Lysen How I Met Your Mother / CBS

fter 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 yoself 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 wont 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

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. Whether 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 mens and womens 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 doesnt matter if the Jayhawks are winning by 2 or 20, the fans are just as crazy. Its 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. Its 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.

Required Reading
Textbook prices continue to skyrocket and Student Senate plans to ease the burden.

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.

Money management crucial for students


Hannah Sundermeyer
hsundermeyer@kansan.com
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, avoid the temptation to spend money in excess. Edited by Allison Kohn

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 youll need could differ greatly. While campus bookstores specialize in providing the textbooks you need, students should also

Students can find help on campus


Emma Legault
elegault@kansan.com Its 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 arent feeling so great anymore. There are plenty of help outlets on campus that are more than willing to give you a helping hand with your classes. If you know you are having trouble with a class and arent 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 dont know where to go, or they can give feedback on a paper you have already written. If grammar isnt 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 dont want to be too much of a distraction in Watson, check out Anschutz library. 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 youve attended the University or how many classes youve 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. Edited by Lauren Armendariz

The University offers several resources for students dealing with stress. So when it hits the fan, dont freak out like this student. Find someone who can help, and solve your problem like a responsible adult.

Calorie counts, prices dont deter coffee lovers

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. Accorind 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 Richs everyday routine. Rich, a junior from Chicago, said she always orders a grande-sized iced 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 Richs 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. Marjie Hensz, shift supervisor at the Starbucks on Sixth and Massachusetts streets, said there hasnt been much of a difference. Calorie counts were posted a few weeks ago and there has not been much of a change in orders, Hensz said. 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? Edited by Dylan Lysen 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.

ringing 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 swiss cheese. That's how it's been the last four years on fall Saturdays. 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. You freshman can go to the football games, and make fall Saturdays in Lawrence even better. Edited by Dylan Lysen

How to camp for basketball games


Blake Schuster
bschuster@kansan.com 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 dont 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 dont get too wasted celebrating the previous nights 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. This is the order in which your group will enter the building on gameday. 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 a little arbitrary because groups can vote on ending camping days early if the majority agrees. Roll Call During camping times, any member 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 isnt 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 About four hours before tipoff a final roll call will take place and groups will be handed a number. This is the official spot that your group will enter the Fieldhouse. 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. Any Questions? 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. Edited by Allison Kohn

Campers waste time in Allen Fieldhouse as they keep their camping groups spot in line for Kansas basketball. Camping groups must have a representative in the Fieldhouse from 6 a.m. to 10 p.m. during the camping period.

Markieff Morris In his third Summer League season, the elder Morrii proved that his game is transitioning to the NBA.

bschuster@kansan.com 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 doesnt guarantee a roster spot, but a poor showing can just about take it away. Ben McLemore 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

Thomas Robinson 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.

THE MORNING BREW Fans of Johnny Football too caught up in his personal life
C
ollege football benefits from Johnny Football. The fan benefits from Johnny Football. And Johnny Footballs mere existence in a Texas A&M uniform is in trouble. 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. Hes a Texan with a cool nickname who also happens to have the most prestigious individual trophy in sports resting on his mantle. Hes the first ever freshman to win the Heisman trophy and was the most polarizing player in college football last season. Its time to leave Johnny Football alone. 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, Manziels personal life, should be removed from the tray under the microscope. Manziels summer headlines look more like tabloid-gossip than your typical offseason stories. Sure, he brings much of this upon himself. But theres also something so juicy, so much more entertaining about Manziel: The quarterback whos lost

control, than Manziel: Works out; people impressed. People tend to drool when Manziel does somethingcollegey. They act like hes captaining the Titanic when he acts like a somewhat typical college kid, nonetheless one that won the freaking Heisman. Of course hes going to try to live it up. I certainly would. 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. Its 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 thats what college students tend to do. Its a piece of a normal lifestyle they get to live out. Manziel is doing the same. Texas A&M isnt the Titanic, and Manziel isnt captaining the ship. His offseason behavior is no reason to be concerned about his play on the field that is until he plays a foot-

ball 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. The facts stand that Johnny Footballs play was as aesthetically pleasing as a college quarterbacks play can be. He would sprint around the field, inches shorter than the men protecting him and the defenders 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 hes also the kid with a shirtless mug shot. Its a juicy dilemma, but its one that needs to stop. The offseason is boring. Johnny Football isnt. Edited by Dylan Lysen

Hype, rumors surround top recruit


Blake Schuster
bschuster@kansan.com Incoming freshman small forward Andrew Wiggins has a lot of hype surrounding him and rightfully so. The top prize of last years recruiting period, Wiggins highlight tapes and scouting reports have built up the Toronto native as the next NBA superstar. With all of the stories and rumors floating around about Wiggins abilities the Kansan is here to separate fact from fiction and clarify a few points about one of the newest Jayhawks. Confirmed Rivals.com ranked Wiggins the number one overall recruit for 2013. So did ESPN, Scout.com and SLAM Magazine. Recently spotted on the red carpet at the ESPYs where he was honored as the Gatorade Male High School Player of the Year. Earned the title Mr. Basketball USA 2013 and played in the McDonalds All-American game despite being Canadian. Has an older brother, Nick, who plays for the Wichita State Shockers. Is the son of former NBA player Mitch Wiggins. Averaged 23.4 points, 11.2 rebounds, 2.6 blocks and 2.5 assists over his final high school season at Wiggins Huntington Prep in West Virginia.

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. 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. Seating 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 north end is larger, and spans the the northwest end of the seating. The south end is smaller but features the University pep band. Pep Band 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 Dexys Midnight Runners and, of course, the University fight songs. Newspaper 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 teams players are being announced, fans hold up the newspaper usually a poster that the paper prints on gamedays in the sports section to show their indifference to the opponents players. Secondly, students like to throw ripped up newspaper into the air when Jayhawk 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 wouldnt 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 Farleys 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 discothemed 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. Edited by Hayley Jozwiak

After a long summer away, its time to brush up on some Jayhawk traditions

Its no secret that Kansas Jayhawk mens basketball is the driving force behind the Universitys 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. For more information on lottery and camping, read the story on page 36. Entry line 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

Football
bschuster@kansan.com Fall Saturdays in Lawrence bring a different type of madness than during basketball season yet the passion of Jayhawks fans remains the same. 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. Tailgate The Hill 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 dont 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. Kickoff Include Kansas on the list of schools that get rowdy for the opening play.

Blake Schuster

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. Pep Band If youre 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 Im A Jayhawk and Sunflower Song. Rock Out With The Players 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. Edited by Lauren Armendariz
