The 2006 KU concrete

canoe is named Quick


n Dirty in reference to
a simple solution to a
complicated problem. The
group had to cut corners
to fnish the project be-
cause of the small num-
ber of students involved,
said Sean Hughes,
Omaha, Neb., gradu-
ate student. A normal
team has between 20-30
members; fewer than 10
students have worked on
the KU canoe.

A 120.5-pound concrete ca-
noe sounds about as logical as
a fying pig. But while pigs dont
fy, concrete canoes do foat,
and a group of KU engineering
students is out to prove it.
The American Society of
Civil Engineers, which spon-
sors concrete canoe competi-
tions for college students each
year, said the trick to building
a buoyant concrete canoe was
creating a concrete mix that
is lighter than water. Water
weighs 62.4 pounds per cubic
foot.
Sean Hughes, Omaha,
Neb., graduate student said
this years team created a
buoyant canoe by using a
lightweight concrete made of
tiny glass beads that weighs
only 53 pounds per cubic foot,
compared to regular sand-
and-rock concrete that weighs
more than 140 pounds per cu-
bic foot. That, combined with
a hull designed to displace the
necessary amount of water,
keeps the canoe from sinking.
When you tell people youre
building a concrete canoe, thats
the frst thing that pops into
their minds, Hughes said.
The student engineers began
brainstorming for this years
canoe after last years regional
competition, but did not start
working until the 76-page rule
book was released in mid-Sep-
tember.
Since then the group has
logged more than 450 hours
working on the project, includ-
ing fundraising, design and con-
struction.

Some KU students were still
experiencing e-mail problems
Tuesday, after the power outage
from Sunday nights hailstorm
shut down campus computer
systems early Monday morning.
Thelma Simons, Informa-
tion Technology Service man-
ager, said that it was diffcult
to link the storm directly to
Tuesdays computer prob-
lems, because the Information
Technology Help Desk had re-
ceived no complaints. Simons
recommended that students re-
port problems to the help desk
so the specifc issue could be
tracked down.
E-mail was the frst service in
line to be restored and was fxed
around 6 a.m. Monday. Some
services, such as the Kyou Por-
tal, were not restored until the
afternoon.
The power outage from Sun-
day nights storm made several
employees from the KU Infor-
mation Technology Service get
up at 1 a.m. to start repairing the
network.
After the storm, two feeds
from Westar Energy from op-
posite sides of town were down,
which is unusual, Simons said.
Joseph Harrington, associate
professor of English, said three
of his students had problems
with their KU e-mail accounts
Tuesday. One students e-mail
was sent back to him from Har-
rington, tagged as an undeliv-
erable message.
Harrington said the problem
wasnt because of a full e-mail
box, but the e-mail eventually
came through.

Oh dont worry about the
other stuff. Just click yes here,
is what Tom Cox claims the or-
ganizers of an unoffcial poll-
ing site were saying to students
when they stopped at the sites
table on election day.
Cox, a Shawnee sophomore,
was campaigning on election
day for Delta Force in front of
Budig Hall. He said within a
35 to 45 minute span at least
fve people he stopped told
him theyd already voted at the
athletes table, but didnt know
what they were voting on be-
cause the people at the table
told them where to click.
Student athletes in support
of the referendum to increase
womens and non-revenue
sports fees set up a campaign
table complete with computers
for students to vote.
Cox said that he was not
anti-athletics but he was up-
set with the way the athletes
handled themselves during the
election. He said their behavior
was unethical and showed how
little they respected the election
process.
Chris Jones, Iowa City, Iowa,
senior and member of the Stu-
dent Athlete Advisory Commit-
tee, said the accusations brought
up against the student athletes
were incredibly false and ri-
diculous.
Jones said that during the
elections the people working
at the athletics table were con-
tinually asking questions to the
on-site elections commission
members, making sure every-
thing they were doing was OK.
He said that they never heard
any complaints about anything
that was being done, and that
people were getting upset be-
cause more people chose to
vote at the athletes table than
any other.
He said he didnt think the
athletes should be punished
just because more people cared
about their issue. The voter
turnout increased this year and
Jones said he thought that the
voting table set up by athletes
was a big reason for that.
We did something nobody
else has ever done and we de-
serve credit and praise for that,
he said.
The election code states that
Any computer shall constitute
a potential polling site and shall
be considered an active polling
site when a student employs
said computer for the purpose
of voting.
The code also states that any
activity that promotes or dis-
courages the passage of either
a candidate or a referendum is
subject to the rules of the elec-
tion code.

As a child in western Kansas, Patricia Moody
used to mix things in the bathroom to see what
would happen. She said she was lucky she never
came across anything dangerous.
As a medical technologist at Watkins Memorial
Health Center, Moody regularly sees dangerous
diseases in the centers laboratory while examin-
ing petri dish cultures of lab samples.
Things that excite us, other people think were
weird, Moody said.
The fve medical technologists at Watkins have
more than 100 years of combined experience, said
Susan Iversen, medical technologist and lab super-
visor. From June 2004 to July 2005, the Watkins lab
served 12,600 individual patients and completed
more than 16,000 in-house tests, 2,000 more than the
year before. About one-third of all Watkins patients,
who total more than 400 some days, visit the lab.
The lab collected blood from 27 potential mumps
patients, but the disease is so rare the lab cannot run
the tests themselves. After mumps was confrmed on
the Universitys campus, the state stopped running
tests from this area and saved the necessary test ma-
terials for other regions, Iversen said.
The lab recently received new equipment to test
for tuberculosis, the only such equipment at a stu-
dent health facility in the state, said Myra Stroth-
er, staff physician. The test will help international
students meet the TB screening requirement with-
out having to travel off campus for the test.

Kansan correspondent
Assistant professor of chemical
and petroleum engineering Michael
Detamore received a two-year grant
study about arthritis-related ail-
ments in the temporomandibular
joint, otherwise known as the jaw
joint by the Arthritis Foundation.
He said that TMJ afficted approxi-
mately 10 million Americans.
UDK: Why are you studying
arthritis?
MD: There are not many peo-
ple researching TMJ. It is a wil-
derness and a chance to do some-
thing exciting. I can help blaze a
new trail. It is a feld where I can
apply my strengths in tissue engi-
neering and biomechanics.
UDK: What will the grant help
you accomplish?
MD: The long-term goal is to
create an insert that can be local-
ized in the defected area of the
jaw. The idea of the grant is to
create two scaffolds, one with
cells that will turn into cartilage
and one with cells that turn into
bone. We will put one on top of
the other and layer them with
fresh stem cells, like a sandwich.
UDK: Where are you getting
the stem cells?
MD: We are working with
someone in pharmacology who
collects cells from umbilical cords.
That advantage to using umbilical
cords is that there is no shortage
of them, there are no ethical con-
cerns and it is a younger cell.
UDK: What is your education
background?
MD: I received a bachelors
degree in chemical engineering in
Colorado and a Ph.D in bioengi-
neering at Rice University. I have
been teaching for one and a half
years. I like teaching undergradu-
ate students because I like teach-
ing people new ways to think. My
sophomore level course in chemi-
cal engineering is the frst class
they start thinking like chemical
engineers. People come in with a
cookie cutter formula and I teach
them how to think critically and
solve problems. I like seeing the
light bulb go off.
UDK: What other hobbies do
you have?
MD: I like weight lifting be-
cause I like the feeling of strength.
There are things in your career
and life that dont always work,
but with weight there is some-
thing consistent you can rely on.
I also enjoy playing the guitar. I
play acoustic, electric and bass.
UDK: Are you a KU sports fan?
MD: My wife and I have season
tickets to the football, baseball and
basketball games. Im from Denver,
Colo., but we both cheer for KU
during basketball; football, Im not
so sure.

naked man gets stuck
in stepmoms chimney
HAYWARD, Calif. A man
who spent fve hours naked
and stuck in the chimney of
his stepmothers home was
arrested on suspicion of being
under the infuence of drugs,
police said.
Police say Michael Urbano,
23, locked himself out of the
house early Saturday morning
and decided to get in using
a cable TV wire through the
chimney.
But the wire broke and
Urbano fell, getting stuck
about three-quarters of the
way down. He was freed when
a frefghter pushed him to
safety.
We get him up, and hes
naked as a jaybird, said Hay-
ward police Lt. Gary Branson.
He tells us he took his clothes
off because there would be
less friction going down the
chute. We did fnd his clothes.
So that part checked out.
Authorities were called in
early Saturday.

spaceship, Nasa
budget OKd by Bush
WASHINGTON A new
spaceship could be ready to re-
place the nations aging shuttle
feet by 2011 three years
ahead of schedule if lawmak-
ers added money to NASAs
proposed budget, the head of
the space agency told a con-
gressional panel on Tuesday.
NASA Administrator Michael
Griffn said that date is the earli-
est the new spaceship, or crew
exploration vehicle, could be
developed no matter how much
money the agency received.
Currently, the target date for
building a new vehicle is 2014.
The shuttle is to be retired in
2010, and lawmakers are con-
cerned about when a replace-
ment will be ready.
President Bushs budget calls
for a 3.2 percent increase in
NASA spending from last year.
The House and Senate have
authorized an additional $1.1
billion, but that is only a guide.
The money must be appropri-
ated by both chambers.
A Senate subcommittee was
to meet Wednesday to consider
the proposed increase.
NASA will shelve its three ag-
ing space shuttles in four years.

Dr. Dawa Dolma speaks about Tibetan medicine at the Hall Center for the Humanities Tuesday. Dolma is the director
of research and development at the Tibetan Medical and Astrological Institute.
By Anne Weltmer
aweltmer@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
The Dalai Lamas personal
physician acknowledges West-
ern medicines importance but
still prefers Tibetan medicine
and believes in its effectiveness.
Only Tibetan medicine is
not suffcient, Dr. Dawa Dolma
said. We dont have facilities
for emergencies.
Dolma, the 14th Dalai Lamas
personal physician, spoke Tues-
day night at the Hall Center for
the Humanities about the nature
and history of Tibetan medicine.
She said that while the Unit-
ed States was starting to look at
more holistic medicine, Tibet was
welcoming Western medicine and
training their students in both
methods. Western medicine can
help injuries and accidents better
because Tibetan medicine does
not work in a way that can treat
those problems, she said.
She said Tibetan medicine is
the fusion of science, art and
philosophy. The fve elements of
life are earth, air, water, fre and
space. Tibetan medicine is based
on the three humors of rLung, or
the relationship of the mind and
body; mTrispa, or physical things
like hunger, body heat and com-
plexion; and Bad-kan, or the
frmness of the body based on
water and earth elements. When
the three humors are disturbed, a
person becomes ill.
Tibetan medicine uses visual
observation, touch and interroga-
tion of the patient to reveal his or
her medical history and fnd the
cause of the problem. Whereas
Western medicine is based upon
signs and symptoms, Tibetan
medicine is based upon causes.
Once the cause is found, the
treatment can be given. Treat-
ments can be dietary, behav-
ioral, medical or other thera-
pies like massage, spring baths,
blood letting or moxubution.
Moxubution can be used for
many chronic illnesses, includ-
ing arthritis, and is executed by
placing herbs on specifc points
on the body then burning them.
Dolma said many patients
couldnt stand the full intensity
of the pain, so they had to per-
form several mild treatments in-
stead of a single heavy one.
Medicines range from medici-
nal wines to herbal compounds.
Dolma said Tibetans recog-
nized 404 diseases. Of them,
101 are curable by themselves,
101 are curable with treatment,
101 are mental diseases related
to an evil spirit and the rest are
related to Karma. Karma-related
illnesses have to do with what
patients did in a previous life
and are sometimes incurable.
Although many think of Ti-
betan medicine as Buddhist, it
has its roots deeper than Bud-
dhism does in Tibet. Its almost
as old as the civilization itself.
Today, the 14th Dalai Lama
established the medical center,
Men Tsee Khang, in Dharamsa-
la, India. After the 1949 Chinese
invasion, many doctors were im-
prisoned and died. In exile, the
Dalai Lama opened the facility
with one room and few doctors.
Now there are more than 300
doctors and 45 branch clinics
treating people with holistic, and
sometimes ancient, medical tech-
niques that sometimes work bet-
ter than Western medicine can.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
TEHRAN, Iran Iran ratch-
eted up its defance ahead of a
U.N. Security Council deadline
to suspend uranium enrichment,
threatening Tuesday to hide its
program if the West takes harsh
measures and to transfer nucle-
ar technology to chaos-ridden
Sudan.
Ali Larijani, the top Iranian
nuclear negotiator, also renewed
a vow to end cooperation with
the U.N. nuclear watchdog
agency and said increasing pres-
sure on Iran would only stiffen
its resolve.
If you take harsh measures,
we will hide this program. If you
use the language of force, you
should not expect us to act trans-
parently, Larijani said, adding
that Western nations have to
understand they cannot resolve
this issue through force.
Secretary of State Condoleez-
za Rice fred back almost im-
mediately, saying, Iranians can
threaten, but they are deepening
their own isolation.
Top leader Ayatollah Ali
Khamenei made the offer to
transfer nuclear technology at a
meeting Tuesday with Sudanese
President Omar al-Bashir.
Irans nuclear capability is
one example of various scien-
tifc capabilities in the country.
The Islamic Republic of Iran is
prepared to transfer the experi-
ence, knowledge and technol-
ogy of its scientists, Khamenei
told al-Bashir.
Al-Bashir said last month
that his impoverished, violence-
ridden country was considering
a nuclear program to generate
electricity.
Such a technology transfer
would be legal as long as it is
between signatory states to the
nuclear nonproliferation treaty,
and the International Atomic
Energy Agency is informed.
We have to be concerned
when there are statements from
Iran that Iran would not only
have this technology, but would
share it, share technology and
expertise, Rice told reporters
during a visit to Ankara, Tur-
key.
Russia, meanwhile,
launched a satellite Tuesday
for Israel that the Israelis say
will be used to spy on Irans
nuclear program. The satellite
is designed to spot small im-
ages on the ground and would
allow Israel to monitor Irans
nuclear program and long-
range missiles, an Israel de-
fense official said.
With the U.N. deadline ap-
proaching Friday, Iran has be-
come more defant almost daily.
If U.N. Security Council
sanctions are to be imposed
on Iran, we will defnitely sus-
pend our cooperation with the
International Atomic Energy
Agency, Larijani said, echoing
the words of hard-line President
Mahmoud Ahmadinejad a day
earlier.
Irans stance appeared to
stem in part from opposition to
sanctions by Russia and China,
both veto-holding members of
the Security Council.
We see no alternative to the
negotiations process, Russian
Defense Minister Sergei Iva-
nov said. And Chinese Foreign
Ministry spokesman Qin Gang
urged all parties to show fex-
ibility.
The United States has not
openly threatened military ac-
tion and said it wanted a dip-
lomatic solution. But President
Bush has said all options, in-
cluding military force, remained
on the table.
Britain also warned Iran
against miscalculating.

The technologists run control
tests every day to confrm every-
thing is working. This automated
equipment allows the technolo-
gists to complete a number of
tests that would be impossible to
accomplish by hand. Some of the
tests, such as chlamydia and gon-
orrhea testing for men, became
easier for students as well, requir-
ing urine samples instead of other
unpleasant tests, said Patti Green,
medical technologist.
Green, who runs the major-
ity of the STI tests, said getting
tested is a good thing, not an ad-
vertisement of promiscuity.

Referendum
continued from page 1a
Ian Staples, Lawrence ju-
nior and legislative director of
the Student Legislative Aware-
ness Board, said that the table
promoting the referendum for
womens and non-revenue
sports was in violation of the
spirit of the election code.
The election code says that
while a student is voting, all
candidates or people running
the polling site must not com-
municate with the voter.
He said the athletes at the
table were clearly influencing
the voters. Even though this
was a violation of the code,
he said the elections commis-
sion was not allowed to mon-
etarily punish anyone except
candidates and coalitions. He
said before issues such as this
could be addressed, the elec-
tion code needed to be revised
to make the process more
egalitarian.
It needs a major overhaul
in regards with groups that are
campaigning, not necessarily
just candidates, Staples said.
Jones said that he didnt think
any student was weak-minded
enough to just vote on some-
thing because a student athlete
was supporting it. He said the
only way the athletic table infu-
enced any result was by getting
more people to vote.
Jones said that the athletes
were not telling the students
only for vote for the referen-
dum. We dont gain any beneft
by just telling people to vote for
the one thing and not the oth-
ers, he said.

Canoe
continued from page 1a
The concrete canoe competi-
tion is part of the American So-
ciety of Civil Engineers Student
Regional Conference in Co-
lumbia, Mo., this weekend. The
competition has four parts, each
of which count for an equal pro-
portion of the score: a fve minute
presentation, canoe and poster
display, written paper and race.
Only undergraduate students can
compete in the competition.
Becky Anderson, Meriden
sophomore, joined the group as a
rower but has been helping with
the project since the concrete
was poured. A civil engineering
major, she said the canoe project
had provided hands on engineer-
ing experience beyond what she
had learned in class.
The University of Kansas placed
high in the regional competitions
in the early and mid-1990s, but
has fallen in recent years as student
involvement dwindled. The team
failed to complete their canoe in
2004, and no one from that group
returned the next year.
Hughes took over the group
last year and said the members
spent most of the year teaching
themselves how to build the ca-
noe. This year, he said, the group
was trying to compete and win.
The winners of the 18 regional
competitions, plus some second
place fnishers, will advance to
the national competition in June
at Oklahoma State University in
Stillwater, Okla.

There might be a glitch in
the system, Harrington said. It
was like the message got held up
somehow, but then it was deliv-
ered.
Zhenya Duzhak, Novo Si-
birsk, Russia, graduate student,

she tried to e-mail herself an
economics assignment shed
been doing on campus. When
she checked her account at

she said her account was fne

receive e-mails.
Some students did not experi-
ence e-mail problems at all, such
as Dustin Brandy, Salina senior.
He said he was able to send and
receive e-mails.
Simons said the DHCP server
is still being repaired. The server
was shut down improperly be-
cause of the power outage, just
as if someone shut down a com-
puter by pulling the plug out of
the wall.
Jerree Catlin, associate direc-
tor for information technology,
was one of the employees on
campus Monday at 1 a.m., and
did not leave until around 6:30.
She was unavailable for com-
ment Tuesday.
Simons said that some people
had worked for 16 hours Mon-
day trying to restore the system.
Luckily, everything recov-
ered quickly, Simons said.
She said she aimed to have
the DHCP server functioning

Some people never change.
No matter how many times
research proves that people
beneft most from combining
cardiovascular exercise with re-
sistance training, they still dont
listen. You know who Im talk-
ing about. The cardio queens
who guard the treadmills like
watch dogs and the meatheads
who walk from bench to bench
with their 95-pound dumbbells.
And they wonder why theyre
not seeing results when they go
to the gym every day and do the
same thing.
People see more results when
they combine both cardio and
resistance training.
Muscle burns more calories
than fat, which is why you
should lift weights. When you
lift weights, you build lean
muscle, which will in turn burn
more calories when you are at
rest.
Cardiovascular exercise
strengthens your heart and can
burn a large amount of calories,
which helps melt away excess
fat.
Still, many people only
choose one or the other. Per-
haps this is due to a missing
piece of the puzzle: Reactive
training.
The National Academy of
Sports Medicine defnes reac-
tive training as a quick, power-
ful movement involving an
eccentric contraction, followed
immediately by an explosive
concentric contraction. This
comes through plyometric exer-
cises such as squat jumps, box
jumps, tuck jumps and other
explosive movements.
You dont have to be an
athlete to incorporate reactive
training into your workouts,
but you do need to have a prop-
er amount of core strength and
stabilization before attempting
reactive training.
According to a study con-
ducted at the University of
Canberras center of sports
studies, the most signifcant
results were in the group using
reactive training. One group did
just squats, one group was car-
diovascular-based and the last
group did reactive training.
Reactive training is great
because it combines a strength
type movement, like a squat,
with a powerful anaerobic
burst, like a jump, so you
beneft from two areas, and see
results faster. No matter what
your goal is, you can beneft
from reactive training.
Try gradually incorporat-
ing reactive training into your
workout routine. If you keep
at it, you will be amazed at not
only the gains you make within
your workouts, but the results
you will see by combining reac-
tive training with cardiovascu-
lar and resistance traioning.

Students marched on City
Hall last week to get the noise
ordinance changed, but the
march went unheard. The City
Commission didnt make any
changes to the statue.
The ordinance may be vague
and prone to abuse, but the
reason it wasnt changed wasnt
an unsuccessful march. Besides
rowdy college students, no one
has a problem with it. The major-
ity of Lawrence citizens the
constituents of the City Com-
mission dont want to change
the law.
This means there will be
little momentum to get the law
changed from any of the city
commissioners.
To get a change, students
who want to see the law
changed need to march to other
students, not the city commis-
sion.
Marching may generate press
about the law, but, as we were
shown, it not nearly as effective
in changing the law.
If concerned student can
motivate students they could
get a direct link to changing the
law. How? Through good-old
fashioned participatory democ-
racy.
Students have the numbers
to possibly elect a fellow stu-
dent to the commission.
Its happened before. Current
magazine reported that Mi-
chael Taylor, a college student
from Ithaca, N.Y., ran for a
local government position to
guess what oppose a noise
ordinance law.
Its a stretch. It would take
a supremely dedicated student
and a focused campaign to get
a student on the Lawrence City
Commission.
But thats the best way to
get a noise ordinance changed
not marching to a group of
commissioners whose constitu-
ents dont care.

Millions of
Americans have
caught phar-
macy brain,
a condition
classifed by
an unnatural
desire for pills
as the solution
to every single
health problem,
from toenail fungus to social
anxiety.
Even the frst option for
treating obesity, which can
clearly be improved upon by
better diet and exercise, often
involves a prescription drug.
Obviously, the drugs on the
market help millions of people
live healthier and more com-
fortable lives. But they often
have side effects weve all
heard them listed at the end of
pharmaceutical commercials:
Nausea, diarrhea, cramping,
headaches, sensitivity to sun-
light or they interfere with
the bodys other processes, such
as absorption of vitamins.
A new feld of emerging
medicine, called comple-
mentary medicine, combines
so-called natural medicine
with Western medicine. The
focus of natural medicine, in its
most pure application, is differ-
ent from the pill-popping view.
Natural or herbal medicine fo-
cuses on a persons entire body
and lifestyle as they interact.
Instead of treating the symptom
as if it were isolated, its aim is
to get to the bottom of whats
causing the symptom.
Unfortunately, pharmacy
brain seems to be infecting
complementary medicine, too. I
work in a wellness department
that sells herbal medicines, and
Ive had many a customer come
in looking for you guessed
it some pill, any pill, really,
that will give them more en-
ergy or help them sleep better.
Heres a hypothetical conver-
sation between myself and a
customer:
Do you have anything for
energy?
We have a few things. But
let me ask you this: Do you eat
and sleep well?
Oh, no. Thats why I dont
have any energy.

This gimme
pills attitude
misses the
point, and it
refects a mis-
understand-
ing of natural
medicine,
which focuses
on the whole
health picture,
not just on a single symptom.
What this person needs is bal-
ance in her life, better eating
habits, less caffeine during the
day or booze at night, some
exercise, less stress not a
supplement that will probably
leave her feeling more tired in
the end. Not to mention that
sleep is free, and it doesnt
have any negative side effects.
Treating your body right isnt
easy to do, but its clearly the best
way to be healthy. If youre willing
to take a more holistic approach
to health, then herbal medicine
can be a better option when
health problems do crop up.
Herbal medicines can be
powerful. For example, ginger
is a very effective safeguard
against motion sickness, and St.
Johns Wort can be as effective
as prescription medications in
preventing mild to moderate
depression.
But herbs can have side ef-
fects too, and their effectiveness
is often debated or unclear.
Every week, new studies ap-
pear in magazines hailing the
merits of a supplement and
the following week, scientists
often refute the claims. Do a
Google search on the supple-
ment Echinacea, an herb used
to boost the immune system,
and youll get thousands of hits,
some supporting it and others
dismissing it.
Whatever you choose,
either prescription drugs or
herbal medicine, avoid phar-
macy brain. Dont just pop a
pill without knowing what it
is. Do your own research. This
includes talking to a doctor or
naturopath someone trained
in herbal medicine and read-
ing information from credible
sources.
And ask yourself, Do I really
need a pill to fx this?

The school year is winding down.
Graduates are fnalizing their plans
to walk down the hill, students are
securing summer internships and
starting fnals and others are plan-
ning summer travel. On top of stu-
dents already long to-do lists, many
have one more task to worry about:
fnding a place to live next year.
As days fy by, many students feel
the crunch to secure housing. Lisa
Warabouno, Leawood senior, has
been renting a house on New Hamp-
shire Street for the past year. She said
she had noticed the rush.
Our landlord actually looked at
when rental agreements were signed
on the house for the past fve years,
and said the house was rented at al-
most always the exact same week in
April every year, Warabouno said.
A 2000 U.S. Census Bureau poll
found that renters occupied more
than 54 percent of Lawrence hous-
ing, and 49 percent of Lawrence
households were non-family.
Every year the city experiences an
infux of students racing to gobble
up the best housing.
The competition has forced some
students to look farther away from
campus and, consequently, farther
away from the high prices and small
spaces of campus area rentals. Scott
Rose, Leavenworth sophomore,
looked at multiple housing options
last year before settling on a town-
house west of Kasold Drive. Rose
said that after he and his roommates
were unimpressed by what theyd
seen close to campus, it was suggest-
ed that they check out the options
out West.
We liked the size of the places
that were farther away, Rose said.
He said he liked the space in his
current house and would be living
there this summer, but he had start-
ed looking at places for the fall that
are closer to campus. Apartment
complexes farther away from cam-
pus often offer special deals to com-
pensate for the trek student renters
must make.
Lauren Murphy, staff member at
The Legends apartments, 4101 W.
24th Place, said the complex offered
special rates for returning residents
who sign a lease before May.
Its kind of getting down to the
deadline now that it is getting closer
to summer, Murphy said.
Though many places entice stu-
dents with special rates, some rent-
ers said they found housing mainly
by chance, after conducting inten-
sive housing searches. Warabouno
said she found her house only after
exhausting other options.
A lot of houses we looked at were
awful, Warabouno said. It only
took us about a week to fnd this
place, but we were looking several
hours every day. It kind of fell into
our laps, and we were so excited that
we made the landlord wait while we
signed the lease outside.
Warabouno got married that se-
mester and wanted to move out be-
fore winter break. In order to get out
of their rental contract early, War-
abouno and her roommates elected
to fnd someone to sublet the space.
They began putting up rental signs
and placing ads in newspapers in
November.
Warabouno said that after experi-
encing renting from the other side,
she thought the race to fnd renters
was as bad as trying to fnd a place
to rent. She said they had received
a few calls about the house within
the past months, but not many until
recently.
The amount of showings and
calls defnitely raised in the last two
weeks, she said. There was not a
lot of interest until now.
Warabouno recently found people
to sublet the house. She can cross
one more task off her list after sur-
viving the race for fall housing.

March Madness has come and gone. Brack-
etology and mid-major teams have fnally been
removed from the American mainstream vocabu-
lary. But even in late April, RPI and bubble team
discussions are starting to heat up for softball,
that is.
Right now were
one of the bubble
teams, Kansas head
coach Tracy Bunge
said about her teams
postseason chances. I
think our RPI is some-
where in the low 60s.
To be exact, the Jay-
hawks are currently
ranked No. 63 in War-
ren Nolans RPI sys-
tem, which is used to
measure NCAA rank-
ings. Kansas, at 5-13,
has a less than fatter-
ing record against teams in the RPI Top 50, but
it is 10-6 against teams with an RPI between 50
and 100. However, these rankings were compiled
before the Jayhawks split their weekend series
against No. 2 Texas.
This game will defnitely help us, Bunge said
of the victory against Texas. The committee will
look at what youve done the last few weeks and
theyre going to look at your pitching. Right now
we have two very good pitchers.
Kansas can continue to improve its chances
for an NCAA bid today when it takes on No. 17
Nebraska, in Lincoln. The Cornhuskers have lost
only once at home this season.
This will be the third time the two teams have
met this season. The Jayhawks took the frst meet-
ing and the Cornhuskers (35-8, 9-4) grabbed the
second on April 4.
In that second game, junior pitcher Kassie
Humphreys pitched a no-hitter for Kansas, but
her team still lost 2-0. The Jayhawks had fve hits
against Nebraska pitcher Ashley DeBuhr, but
were unable to capitalize when presented with
runners in scoring position.
Since that game, Kansas is 9-3 and is com-
ing off its biggest victory of the season Sunday
against Texas.
This win will give us confdence, senior
pitcher Serena Settlemier said. Were just going
to go up from here.
Settlemier and the rest of the Jayhawks have
been on an offensive tear lately, averaging more
than four runs in their last six games. This even
included two Texas games, where Kansas scored
only one run combined. An improved offense and
Humphreys red-hot pitching have made Kansas
a scary team, according to Settlemier.
I dont think any team in the Big 12 is going to
want to face us, she said.

Kansas coach Mark Mangino
said earlier in the spring. Hes
quick, hes strong and hes not
an easy guy to bring down.
Quigley finished the game
with 39 rushing yards on nine
carries. He also caught two
passes for 10 yards.
Mangino said Quigley
played himself into the run-
ning back mix this spring.
Last season the Cleburne,
Texas, freshman took a red
shirt. Although he has been a
pleasant surprise for the KU
offense this spring, Cornish,
senior running back, will re-
main the starter next season.
Jon deserves to be the
starter, Quigley said.
Last season Kansas won
games on the ground. In its
seven victories, Kansas ran
the ball an average of 40 times
per game.
Cornish and Clark Green
split the majority of carries.
Last season Cornish ran about
12 times per game, averag-
ing 5.8 yards per carry, while
scoring nine touchdowns. The
only other player returning to
the backfield from last season
will be junior running back
Brandon McAnderson. McAn-
derson ran the ball 22 times
last season for 102 yards and a
touchdown. With a bulk of the
offense relying on the running
game, Quigley should see his
fair share of playing time.
The key for Quigely to stay
involved in the offense will be
to limit the hits he takes.
Hes got to get his pad level
down a little bit so he doesnt
take so many hits, Mangino
said.
Quigley, who stands at 6
feet 2 inches tall, might have
to focus on technique early in
his KU career.
The lower I get, I figured
out, the less hard blows I
take, Quigley said.
Quigleys teammates have
also realized the impact he
could have on the offense this
season.
Hes done a great job,
sophomore wide receiver Mar-
cus Herford said. He looks
real good.
Herford said Kansas would
have a great tandem in the
backfield with Cornish and
Quigley.

After strong performances last week on
the mound and at the plate, the awards have
begun to roll in for Serena Settlemier.
The senior pitcher was named the Co-Na-
tional Collegiate Player of
the Week by USA Softball
and Big 12 Conference
Player of the Week, the
Kansas Athletics Depart-
ment announced Tuesday.
I am very honored to
receive such an extraor-
dinary award. Settlemier
said in a press release. My
team has been playing very
well and I could not have
done this without them behind me.
In fve games last week, Settlemier totaled
eight hits, 12 RBI and a .615 batting average.
Settlemier hit three home runs in those fve
games, as well as her ffth and sixth grand
slams of the season.
On the mound, Settlemier went 3-0, in-
cluding a victory against No. 2 Texas last
Sunday. In 16 innings of work, she struck
out 15 and held opponents to a .115 batting
average. Her ERA in those games against
Missouri, Creighton and Texas was 0.44.
Settlemier improved her record to 15-5 on
the season.
The Kelso, Wash., native ranks third in
Division I softball with 20 home runs on the
season.
This is an incredible honor for both
Serena and our team, Kansas coach Tracy
Bunge said. Her performance this season
has been remarkable and last week, she did
some pretty incredible things. She has had to
persevere through a lot of adversity and that
makes this honor all the more special.
This is Settlemiers fourth weekly award
from the Big 12 of her career. Settlemier
shared the national award with Cambria Mi-
randa of Oregon State.

strike out
By alissa Bauer
abauer@kansan.com
kansan staff writer
KANSAS CITY, Kan. The
home plate umpire reared back
for the punch out. In the top
of the seventh, third baseman
Phillip Riley left his bat on his
shoulder while Brendan McNa-
mara delivered.
Consequently, Riley struck out.
Rileys second strikeout of the
day marked the tenth for McNa-
mara, making the junior right
handed pitcher the frst Kansas
pitcher to strike out 10 batters
since March 2001.
I felt good, McNamara said.
The frst thing I noticed when
I got to the ballpark today was
that the wind was blowing in.
So I had a plan to throw a lot of
strikes to get ahead.
That particular set of strikes
equaled the last out McNamara
threw in his 6.1 inning start, when
he scattered four hits throughout
the shutout. He was lifted for
freshman left-hander Andy Marks
after reaching his 99th pitch on a
100-pitch count day.
Less than 10 minutes later,
Kansas coach Ritch Price and
Southeast Missouri coach Mark
Hogan met with the umpires
and called the off. Kansas won
the shortened contest, 6-0.
I think their coach made a
good decision, Price said. The
umpire went and talked to him
and he was in complete agree-
ment. Players were saying their
hamstrings were hurting from
running in the grass and he
didnt want to lose anybody.

For the sports fan, this time of
the year means that the two-month
odyssey that is the NBA Playoffs of-
fcially begins.
Lately, Ive had debates with many
people friends, radio co-hosts and
even professors on whether the
NBA Playoffs are signifcant.
The one thing theyve said to me
was that the NBA seems to lack sig-
nifcance for them and most people
in the Lawrence area.
In contrast, when college basket-
ball comes up, everyones voice dra-
matically changes to a much more
serious tone. College basketball,
especially in March, is very addic-
tive. But I grew up with the NBA, so
April, May and June are even more
exciting.
There have been many reason
for cynicism and disdain toward the
NBA.
Since Michael Jordan retired
from the Bulls in 1998, there hasnt
been a team, a rivalry or a defnite
player to capture the attention of the
average fan.
Jordan was the symbol of basket-
ball and arguably American culture
as well. Author David Halberstam
said in reference to Jordan that hes
who we are.
Then, there was the lockout. The
following year, after Jordans retire-
ment in 1998, the league suffered a
nasty lockout that wiped out half of
the 1998-1999 season. When the
lockout ended, the NBA returned
with a 50-game season, but the
damage was already done by then.
A comeback by Jordan in 2001
seemed to have little effect on the
leagues stature probably because he
was playing for the Washington Wiz-
ards instead of the Chicago Bulls.
Another argument against the
NBA has been greed. Thats been the
basis for any anti-NBA sentiment.
In recent years, the negative charac-
teristics have grown, as some of the
NBAs brightest stars have let fans
down with their off-the-court issues.
For example, in 2003, Kobe Bry-
ant was accused of sexual assault
and rape in Colorado. Though he
was acquitted, this ruined his once
fawless reputation.
Last week, Philadelphia 76ers
players Allen Iverson and Chris
Webber arrived for their game fve
minutes before tip-off because their
teams were already eliminated from
playoff contention,
The other argument against the
NBA could be a lack of scoring in
the league. Growing up in San An-
tonio, fans received free Big Macs
if the Spurs scored more than 125
points. Now-a-days, most of the
promotions for free food happen
if the Spurs score more than 100
points.
So, when all of that is factored,
I can see why people are turned off
by the NBA. Some say its also the
length of the playoffs, but for once
the players actually care.
Regardless, there are some good
stories in the NBA Playoffs. In his
frst playoff game, LeBron James
tallied a triple double. The Los An-
geles Clippers are in the playoffs for
the frst time in nine years.
But the only way people will
know or care is if the NBA markets
more than just a few players or a
team. Because, until then the com-
mon sentiment from every type of
person this time of the year will be:
Whens the Kentucky Derby?

The Kansas mens golf team fnished in eighth
place at the Big 12 Championship in Tulsa, Okla.,
Tuesday. The Jayhawks, who
came into the tournament as the
No. 11 seed, remain in the hunt for
a postseason bid. Their total score
of 897 put them one stroke ahead
of archrival Missouri on the lead-
erboard. Four of the fve members
of the team battled food poison-

in a tie for 7th place in the individual standings. Se-
niors Pete Krsnich and Luke Trammell tied for 32nd
and 52nd places, respectively. Junior Tyler Docking
played three consistent rounds and fnished in a tie
for 45th place. Redshirt freshman Zach Pederson
brought up the rear, fnishing in 57th place. Okla-
homa won the tournament with a total score of 858,
followed closely by Texas and Texas A&M.

WASHINGTON A Duke
University lacrosse player
charged with raping a stripper
in North Carolina was ordered
Tuesday to stand trial in Wash-
ington on an unrelated assault
charge from last fall.
The assault charge against
Collin Finnerty, 19, could
have been dismissed if he
completed 25 hours of com-
munity service and stayed out
of trouble, but a Washington
judge decided his arrest in the
rape case violated that agree-
ment.
Finnerty and two friends are
accused of punching a man
after he told them to stop
calling him gay and other de-
rogatory names, according to
court documents.
Finnerty remains free pend-
ing a July 10 trial in the Wash-
ington case. He could get up
to six months in jail and a fne
of up to $1,000 if convicted of
simple assault.
Judge John Bayly also set a 9
p.m. curfew, ordered him to re-
port by phone to court offcials
every Friday and required that
he stay away from places that
sell alcohol.
Finnerty nodded when the
judge asked if he understood.
A family priest stood a few
feet behind him in the court-
room.
This incident has been
grossly mischaracterized,
said attorney Steven J. Mc-
Cool, who is representing
Finnerty, of Garden City,
N.Y., in the Georgetown case.
McCool said the media have
unfairly portrayed the inci-
dent as a hate crime. He did
not elaborate.
Finnerty and Duke team-
mate Reade Seligmann, 20,
were indicted on rape and
kidnapping charges last week.
A 27-year-old stripper who
had been hired to perform at a
lacrosse team party March 13
told police three men raped
her in a bathroom of the off-
campus house. District Attor-
ney Mike Nifong has said he
expects to charge a third per-
son soon.
Defense attorneys say time-
stamped photos, phone re-
cords and a taxi drivers testi-
mony show Seligmann could
not have been there when the
rape is alleged to have oc-
curred.
Nifong said Tuesday he has
no plans to present charges in
the lacrosse case to the grand
jury at his next opportunity,
which comes on Monday the
day before he stands for elec-
tion in the May 2 Democratic
primary.
Even I would think that
would look political, said Ni-
fong, who was appointed dis-
trict attorney last year.
A handful of other Duke la-
crosse players facing deferred
prosecution all for misde-
meanor violations in Durham
may see the charges against
them reinstated.
So far, Nifong said, thats
happened only to David Evans,
a team captain who lived at the
house where the party was held.
But the prosecutor is looking at
other cases involving deferred
prosecution.
Evans, 22, was cited in sep-
arate incidents for a noise or-
dinance violation and alcohol
possession. Nifong said he re-
instated the charges because
Evans knew there would be
underage drinkers at the par-
ty.
For a long time, we have
treated deferred prosecution
as a right, Nifong said. It is
a privilege.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
DURHAM, N.C. Wher-
ever reporters gather to cover the
Duke rape case, its a good bet
Rosemarie Kitchin is nearby.
In the past two weeks, the di-
rector of media relations for the
Durham Convention & Visitors
Bureau showed up at a prayer ser-
vice in front of Duke Chapel; on
the courthouse steps as defense
lawyers criticized the district at-
torney; and inside the courtroom
where a player made his frst ap-
pearance before a judge.
Celebrated two decades ago for
its rundown Southern charm in
the Kevin Costner baseball movie
Bull Durham, Durham has been
dissected since allegations sur-
faced last month that members of
Duke Universitys lacrosse team
raped a stripper at a party.
Race relations, income levels,
economic development, the rela-
tionship between Duke and the
city all have been examined
in a search for an explanation for
the scandal.
It is Kitchins job to stick up for
the Bull City in that debate.
And so she follows the report-
ers with an armful of bright red
portfolios stuffed with promo-
tional material about the city of
200,000. She hands out fiers or
a business card, and offers report-
ers food from local restaurants
and caterers.
We knew we had to be on the
street, said Reyn Bowman, presi-
dent and chief executive of the
convention and visitors bureau.
We had to be in touch with the
media. ... Our job was to move
quickly, and Rosemarie did that.
Durham has long been regard-
ed in North Carolina as the bad
apple of the Triangle, as the cities
of Raleigh, Durham and Chapel
Hill are known. Raleigh is seen as
the clean, if bland, state capital,
while Chapel Hill is the bucolic
university town.
But Durham
is viewed as
troubled and
crime-ridden, a
rundown fac-
tory and tobac-
co town with
elite Duke in its
midst.
After a black
stripper told
police she was
raped by white
members of the
Duke lacrosse team at an off-cam-
pus party, reporters descended on
Durham to cover the case and the
later indictment of two players.
Bowman and Kitchin said
their aim is not to put a positive
spin on the story, but to provide
an accurate context for national
depictions of their city, which has
not gotten this much screen time
since Bull Durham in 1988.
When a fren-
zy hits like this,
people are look-
ing for contrasts,
so the tempta-
tion is to slightly
overemphasize
the contrasts,
Bowman said.
Durham has a
bit of an image
problem within
a 50-mile radius
anyway. That
often contami-
nates the national coverage.
Durham offcials are frustrated
when writers describe Durhams
population as poor and black.
The city is about 46 percent white
and 44 percent black, while the
median household income is
$41,160, or just under the nation-
al average.
The rundown factory town
image irks as well, given that the
county is home to Research Tri-
angle Park, a collection of pharma-
ceutical companies and other high-
technology businesses that include
GlaxoSmithKline and IBM.
Kitchin said she was shocked
to see a TV story show an under-
construction condominium de-
velopment to illustrate the report-
ers point that Durham has seen
better times.
Is the glass half-empty, or is it
half-full? she said. Hes show-
ing huge renovation projects as
though theyre slums.
Bowman said a national poll
conducted last week for the bu-
reau by the frm Opinion Research
Corp. showed little effect on Dur-
hams image from the Duke case.
Asked whether they had seen,
read or heard any news about
Durham in the past two weeks,
28 percent of those surveyed
said yes, and 63 percent said no.
Asked whether their image of
Durham had changed, 5 percent
said it had improved, 6 percent
said it had worsened and 64 per-
cent said it was the same.
Bowman and Kitchin said they
will continue their longstanding
effort to improve Durhams im-
age. For years, their bureau has
urged local media outlets to date-
line stories about Research Tri-
angle Park from Durham, and to
note Dukes location in Durham
in stories about the university.
Kitchins portfolio includes a
handout on 25 Common Misper-
ceptions about Durham and the
reality behind them. Among the
myths the handout mentions:
Race relations in Durham are
hostile; Durham thinks of itself
as the redheaded stepchild of the
Triangle; and Duke town/gown
relationships are poor.

SMU hires Doherty,
hopes for revival
By Jaime aron
THE ASSOCIATEDPRESS
DALLAS SMU hired former
national coach of the year Matt
Doherty on Monday to try reviving
a program that hasnt gone to the
NCAA tournament in 13 years.
Doherty signed a fve-year
deal, but terms werent disclosed.
Doherty, coming off a 15-13 sea-
son at Florida Atlantic, replaces
Jimmy Tubbs, who was fred
April 6 after two losing seasons
and an internal investigation that
uncovered NCAA violations.
I look at this as a destination
job, Doherty said. I didnt want
to take a job to take another job.
Doherty, who won a national
championship as a player for North
Carolina, broke into coaching with
Notre Dame in 1999-2000. He took
over the Tar Heels the next season
and earned the coach of the year
award from The Associated Press
for going 26-7 and winning a share
of the regular-season ACC title.
North Carolina missed the
NCAA feld the next two years,
and Doherty resigned under
pressure in April 2003. He
worked as a television analyst
for two years, then spent this
past season at Florida Atlantic.
I didnt value experience so
much when I was younger because
I thought I knew it all, said the 44-
year-old Doherty. But the thing
Ive learned is that coaching is 50
percent the science of coaching,
which is Xs and Os, and 50 percent
is the art of coaching. And thats
the relationships, the leadership,
and thats an area Ive worked very
hard in improving.
Dohertys high profle should
be a boost for SMU, which
hasnt made the NCAA tourna-
ment since 1993.
I want to put a system in place
to put in a program that you all will
be excited about. With the commit-
ment we have here, why cant we
be a top 25 team? he said.
New athletic director Steve
Orsini said it was an easy choice
for the schools 18-member
search committee.
This is defnitely a great day for
SMU athletics, he said. It was a
very quick and strong consensus
for Matt Doherty.
Sophomore guard Derrick Rob-
erts said he believes Doherty can
revive the program.
The frst time I heard his
name, I stopped listening to all
the things about the other candi-
dates, Roberts said.
Tubbs spent 12 years as an
SMU assistant, then two at Okla-
homa and was a popular pick
when he was hired. His teams
went 27-30, including 13-16 this
past season, but school offcials
said the NCAA violations were
the main reason he was fred.
James Stafford and Mal-
colm Farmer, assistants under
Doherty at Florida Atlantic,
are coming to SMU with him.
Rex Walters, Dohertys top as-
sistant, is a candidate for the
Florida Atlantic head coaching
job. He could join the SMU
staff if hes not promoted,
Doherty said.
The Mustangs havent won a
postseason game NCAA or
NIT since 1988, when they beat
Notre Dame in the frst round of
the NCAA tournament before los-
ing to Duke. They lost in the frst
round of the NIT in their only post-
season appearance since 1993.
When a frenzy hits
like this, people are
looking for contrasts,
so the tempation is to
slightly overemphasize
the contrasts.

Miami Dolphins running back Ricky Williams pulls in a pass from quar-
terback Gus Frerotte during their 27-13 loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers
in this fle photo in Tampa, Fla. Ricky Williams was suspended for the 2006
season by the NFL on Tuesday for violating the leagues substance abuse
policy for the fourth time.
By Steven Wine
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
MIAMI Miami Dolphins
running back Ricky Williams
was suspended for the 2006
season by the NFL on Tues-
day for violating the leagues
substance abuse policy for the
fourth time.
The league announced the
suspension after Williams ap-
peal of his latest positive drug
test was denied. Williams met
with NFL counsel Jeff Pash on
April 10 in an attempt to have
the league overturn the test.
Im disappointed with the
decision, but I respect it, Wil-
liams said in a statement re-
leased by the team. Im proud
of my association with the Na-
tional Football League and look
forward to returning to the Dol-
phins in 2007.
Williams previous positive
tests were for marijuana, which
he acknowledged using. The lat-
est test apparently involved a
drug other than marijuana.
Williams had been partici-
pating in the offseason training
program at the Dolphins com-
plex and was there working out
shortly before the league an-
nounced its decision.
The 1998 Heisman Trophy
winner at Texas and 2002 NFL
rushing champion, Williams re-
tired and sat out the 2004 sea-
son, then returned last year to
play for new Miami coach Nick
Saban.
Williams served a four-game
suspension at the start of the
2005 season for his third viola-
tion of the drug program, then
ran for 743 yards and averaged
4.4 yards a carry while sharing
playing time with rookie Ronnie
Brown.
News that Williams had
failed another drug test sur-
faced in February, while he was
in India studying yoga and ho-
listic medicine.
Saban repeatedly has praised
Williams conduct and perfor-
mance last season and support-
ed him in the appeal process.
This is a league decision,
and we are disappointed in
what it means for Ricky and the
team, Saban said in a state-
ment. Ricky did an outstand-
ing job for the Dolphins, not
only as a player but also what
he added as a person to the
teams chemistry and to our
overall success.
Attorney David Cornwell rep-
resented Williams in his appeal.
We raised substantial and le-
gitimate issues arising out of the
application of the NFLs policy
and program for substances of
abuse, Cornwell said in a state-
ment. He urged the players
union and ownership to review
the issues we raised on the ap-
peal ... and restore the original
intention of the NFLs policy to
put equal focus on helping NFL
players as is put on testing and
suspending them.
The suspension represents a
fnancial blow for Williams, who
owes the Dolphins $8.6 million
for breaching his contract when
he retired in 2004. His return
last season was motivated partly
by the need for a paycheck, and
that may be a motivation for him
to return in 2007.
Its possible the suspension
could mean the end of the mer-
curial running backs career.
If he does try to return next
year, hell be 30 years old and
will have played a total of 12
games in the previous three
seasons.

Quigley
continued from page 1B
Last season Cornish played a
signifcant role on special teams,
collecting nine tackles. Cornish
said he would prefer to limit his
special teams duties because he
would like to be fresh at running
back. But it remains to be seen
how the coaching staff will use
Cornish for special teams next
season.
Jons a valuable player for us,
both on offense and on special
teams, Mangino said.
Four other running backs will
join Cornish and Quigley in the
backfeld next season, including
Gary Green, who was injured this
spring. Kansas signed three run-
ning backs as well Jake Sharp,
from Salina, DMarcus Lang,
from Scurry, Texas, and Donte
Bean, from Rowlett, Texas.

Potential stars overlooked by scouts
By Jerome minerva
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK Who says
NFL scouts know everything?
They missed on Antonio
Gates, now considered the best
tight end in football.
They missed on Kurt Warner,
who merely became a two-time
NFL Most Valuable Player and
an MVP of the Super Bowl. And
on Rod Smith, whos fourth on
the career yards receiving list
among active players.
All those players didnt go
in the frst round of the draft.
In fact, they didnt go in any
rounds.
Despite all the poking and
prodding at the NFL Combine
each year, players deemed too
small, too slow or too injured
invariably go on to become stars
in the NFL after being passed
over by personnel directors and
general managers.
So who will be this years
Priest Holmes? Dick Vermeil,
for one, doesnt pretend to have
the answer.
Youd like to believe that
were all smart enough to draft
them anyway, but none of us are,
obviously, the former Chiefs
coach said.
Holmes went undrafted in
1997 after an injury-flled career
at Texas, but latched on with
the Ravens as a free agent. After
showing a glimmer of his poten-
tial, he signed with the Chiefs in
2001. Holmes went on to rush
for a league-record 27 touch-
downs in 2003, a mark broken
last season by NFL MVP Shaun
Alexander.
Vermeil, who won a Super
Bowl with the Rams in 1999,
said teams dont take it lightly
when they miss on evaluating a
player.
I think every time someone
misses on somebody that glar-
ingly, they go back and evaluate
their reports, evaluate the scouts
that wrote the reports. They
deeply evaluate the whole situ-
ation better and see where they
made a mistake, or if they did,
Vermeil told The Associated
Press in a telephone interview.
Many times theres little, mit-
igating circumstances that just
prevented ... you didnt think
a guy would drop from a frst-
round pick (to) out of the draft.
Maybe he drops to a sixth- or
seventh-round pick. So, I think
people do go and re-evaluate ev-
erything.
Warner may have the most
improbable success story. Un-
drafted out of Northern Iowa,
he played in the Arena Football
League and then NFL Europe.
He fnally got his shot in St.
Louis when starting quarter-
back Trent Green went down
with a knee injury in the 1999
preseason. Vermeil stuck War-
ner in the lineup, leading to a
storybook career hes still writ-
ing in Arizona.
Warner was the league MVP
in 1999 and 2001 and MVP of
the 2000 Super Bowl, leading
the Rams to a 23-16 victory over
Tennessee. He also led St. Louis
to the 2002 Super Bowl, where
the Rams lost to New England
20-17.
Another two-time Super Bowl
winner, Denvers Smith is the
NFLs career leader in receptions
(797), yards receiving (10,877)
and touchdowns receiving (65)
among undrafted players. At
just 6-foot, 200 pounds, hes the
only undrafted player to eclipse
10,000 yards receiving. The rap
against Smith? He played at
that non-football factory, Mis-
souri Southern.
Chargers GM A.J. Smith said
sometimes its just a matter of
luck. He should know.
San Diego was one of 19
teams vying for Gates, a college
basketball standout for Kent
State. Smith said the football
gods were with him the day
Gates original agent, Eugene
Parker, called him with the good
news.
You know, of all these 19
teams, weve decided that were
going to sign with you, Smith
recalled Parker saying. So, Ive
never stood at a podium and
took credit for this. This is ab-
solutely what you call luck. Pe-
riod and simple. And sometimes
it happens in this business. And
the San Diego Chargers were
very, very lucky.
Gates, an All-Pro, last sea-
son led NFL tight ends with 89
catches for 1,101 yards and 10
touchdowns..
For some teams, its being in
the right place at the right time.
Willie Parker will never for-
get the embarrassment of Se-
nior Day at North Carolina in
2003. The Steelers starting run-
ning back never set foot on the
feld for the Tar Heels that day
against Duke, even with friends
and family looking on.
As the story goes, Steelers
scout Dan Rooney Jr. remem-
bered Parker as a high school
player in Clinton, N.C. He saw
him at his pro workout day in
Chapel Hill and lobbied the
front offce hard to sign him.

The Stars Show the Kind of Day Youll Have:
5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Diffcult
ARIES (March 21-April 19) HHHHH
The ideas that seem to spin off you out
of the blue actually might be triggered
by a past discussion. Your perspective
transforms as new information heads in
your direction. Be willing to say that you are
wrong, and you will be the big winner.
Tonight: Just wish upon a star or, better
yet, ask!
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) HHH You
might be instrumental in much that goes
on, but also be willing to not demand the
limelight. You are better off allowing others
to think they did it on their own. A fnancial
discussion takes you in a new direction.
Tonight: Vanish. You dont need to explain.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20) HHHHH
Dont settle. You have the right idea and are
heading in the correct direction. Sometimes
you get a bit confused, as you have so many
ideas fying through your head like lightning.
Detach. Think.
Tonight: Where people are.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHHH
Your ability to assume responsibility helps
others. What is obvious is how smoothly
everything happens. A partner or associate
who deals with joint funds could be squan-
dering them away.
Tonight: A must appearance.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHHHH Reach
out for new facts and perspectives. Pick up
the phone and explore your options. You will
have to meet certain responsibilities. Others
open up and take a risk by sharing some
offbeat ideas. Brainstorm. Creativity adds
that touch of fair and fun to life.
Tonight: Get into a favorite game.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) HHHHH
Working with others can defne your suc-
cess. Ideas will fourish, though you might
need to back off and approach others more
creatively. Your willingness to revamp
plans enhances your productivity and/or
happiness.
Tonight: The spotlight is on the other person.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HHHHH
Others dominate. Though you could be
ambivalent about this fact, you will fnd that
you have great freedom and more creativity
as a result. Your specialty lies in seeing
others in their unique light.
Tonight: Go along with plans.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) HHH Dig
in and get the job done. You can effectively
accomplish a lot more if you relax and
let your imagination wander. If you can,
surround yourself with music. In any case,
make your environment more pleasant.
Tonight: A brisk walk.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
HHHHH Your words resonate and draw
results. Observe others responses. You
might get a lot of feedback and can make
key changes if need be. A firtation could
be budding; be aware of what is happen-
ing.
Tonight: Take a midweek break.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHH
Check out an investment or property offer.
You might view this situation differently than
those who tell you about it. Be a cynic. Your
instincts guide you well. Explaining what
you feel could take more talent!
Tonight: Happy at home.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHHH
A whirlwind surrounds you. You fnd that
plans change. A new friend could appear on
the scene. You could be delighted by what
a simple call draws. Socialize; reach out for
others. Success surrounds you.
Tonight: Meet a friend.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHH
Allow your sixth sense to play into a deci-
sion that surrounds a money venture or
purchase. Eye security, and dont let others
distract you. Follow your instincts with
someone you put on a pedestal. Youll get
results.
Tonight: Fun doesnt need to cost.

KANSAS CITY, Kan. Kan-
sas continued its impressive
play yesterday, earning its ninth
victory in 12 games. It came,
however, in the worst weather
conditions the team had played
in since March 25 in Lincoln,
Neb.
Unlike the conditions in Lin-
coln, where the temperature was
just above freezing and snow
was piled up in parts of the
stadium, temperatures hovered
around 50 on Tuesday and pre-
cipitation fell, ending the game
against Southeast Missouri State
after seven innings.
I thought wed get it in be-
cause I didnt think it was going
to rain until later, but I thought,
actually, wed get the whole
thing in, junior right-hander
Brendan McNamara said.
While pitchers and positions
players were feeling the effects
of the weather, batters appeared
to have the hardest time. The
frst nine batters of the game
struck out, leaving Kansas with-
out a hit until the second inning
and Southeast Missouri State
without a hit until the third.
McNamara made the start for
Kansas and took advantage of
uncomfortable hitters by striking
out 10 Redhawk batters in 6.1
innings. Almost more impres-
sive than McNamaras strikeout
total was that he stayed in the
game as long as he did.
In the bottom of the ffth, the
Kansas batting order went full
circle, leaving McNamara in the
dugout to get cold. To stay warm,
the Oceanside, Calif., native f-
nally had to play catch with a
teammate in foul territory while
the Jayhawks were batting.
The frst inning, Im stand-
ing on that top step and I know
he is from San Diego, where he
always pitches in warm weath-
er in paradise, Kansas coach
Ritch Price said. I was shocked
at how he pitched in those con-
ditions.
Despite the harsh conditions,
McNamara made his longest
appearance of the season and
was only pulled because he had
reached his pitch count. After his
performance, he couldnt really
complain about the weather.
If anything, it worked to my
advantage because hitters dont
want to hit in this weather, Mc-
Namara said.
Neither team performed as
badly as might be expected in the
feld, considering its condition.
The two teams combined for
only three errors.
Senior outfelder Gus Mil-
ner said the wet conditions had
caused the ball to skip if it was
hit hard, but as long as felders
were careful, the routine plays
could still be made.
It was real sloppy conditions
and you just had to make sure
to keep everything underneath
you, Milner said. Otherwise
you might make yourself look
like a fool.
While the game came down
to which team pitched, hit and
felded better, Milner said Kan-
sas ultimately came out on top
because it was tough enough
mentally to withstand the con-
ditions.
I dont think anybody really
complained at all, Milner said.
I think its just kind of like, All
right, weve got to accept it and
try to deal with it and try to min-
imize the errors. I think we did
that today.

Jayhawks outplay Redhawks
Josh Bickel/KANSAN
Southeast Missouri State senior outfelder Chris Gibson tries to slide past Kansas senior infelder Jared Schweitzer Tuesday at the CommunityAmerica
Ballpark in Kansas City, Kan. The Jayhawks beat the Redhawks 6-0. Kansas plays Creighton today at 3 p.m. in Kansas City, Kan.
Baseball
continued from page 1a
McNamara cruised through
the opening innings using the
cold to his advantage. He ended
the top of the fourth fanning
frst baseman Aaron Rave, reset-
ting his career strikeout to six in
just the frst four innings.
You kind of have to look at
it both ways, McNamara said.
Its tougher for hitters to hit in
this weather than it is for pitch-
ers to pitch in it.
The cold gusts of rain and al-
most non-existent crowd kept
the game moving at quiet, steady
pace. In the bottom of the ffth,
however, Kansas showed off what
it has been perfecting as of late:
capitalizing on opportunities.
Sophomore leadoff man
Brock Simpson led off the fve-
run ffth. Second baseman Omar
Padillas lay out stopped Simp-
sons groundball, but not in time
for the throw to beat him.
Simpson used a Redhawk
felding error, put in motion
by senior outfelder Matt Baty,
to move to third in the next at
bat and scored when Baty was
caught stealing moments later.
With two outs the Jayhawks
used the extra out provided by
the error earlier in the inning.
The next six batters reached
base consecutively, starting with
a walk to Gus Milner. Unfazed
by the weather, the senior out-
felder went 2-2 with two runs
scored.
It wasnt that bad because I was
playing, Milner said. Im pretty
sure the people in the dugout were
cold but after I was out there run-
ning around, I got warm.
Erik Morrison singled to left
and sophomore John Allman
took four straight balls before
senior infelder Jared Schweitzer
reached on the Southeast Mis-
souris second error of the inning.
The error scored both Milner and
Morrison. Allman was left behind
to score later on freshman frst
baseman Preston Lands deep
double to the left feld corner.
Standing in as the only pri-
mary catcher while junior Dylan
Parzyk recovers from an ankle
sprain, freshman catcher Buck
Afenir drove in Schweitzer.
Were starting to peak at the
right time, coach Price said.
We peaked last year in the last
month of the season. Weve
played our best baseball these
last two weekends. If we can
continue to improve then weve
got a shot to play for something
special here at the end.
Game Notes:
n Former Jayhawk Doug Lantz
was the last Kansas pitcher to
strike out 10 batters in one
outing. It happened on March
25, 2001 against the Baylor
Bears.
n Tuesdays victory marked
number 30 for Kansas on the
season, making it their fourth
year in a row to post a 30-plus
victory season. No Kansas
squad has ever posted such a
streak.
