Students
fees wont
increase
next year
BY BRIANNE PFANNENSTIEL
[email protected]
Students paid $414.70 in
required campus fees this year, and
for the first time in nearly a decade,
that number wont increase next
year.
Student Body President Adam
McGonigle announced Thursday
that Student Senate would not be
raising student fees by any per-
centage.
We want to be sensitive to the
pocketbooks of students who cant
afford any increase and who are
already struggling, McGonigle
said.
The Kansas Board of Regents
said in a December meeting that it
only had plans to increase tuition
by a minimal amount next year.
Required campus fees are figured
into any tuition increase approved
by the Regents. By not requesting
a fee increase, McGonigle said, all
of the increases proposed by the
Regents would go to tuition, which
directly funds academics.
In these economic times we have
to prioritize academics over cam-
pus life aspects of the University
right now, McGonigle said. Weve
had a lot of fee increases that have
done great things for the University
but its not responsible to do that
right now. Not when teachers are
losing their jobs.
Some students say they are
pleased the University has decided
to do something about rising fee
costs.
I think thats a great compromise
that the University has reached,
Kayleigh Nichols, Independence
senior, said.
Certain organizations on
campus, however, will need an
increased budget in order to main-
tain the level of services they cur-
rently provide to students. These
organizations include the Ambler
Student Recreation Fitness Center
and Watkins Memorial Health
entrepre-tainment
duos bar to have dueling pianos
BY MICHELLE SPREHE
[email protected]
Ivory and beer will come
together when The Barrel House,
a new dueling piano bar, opens in
Lawrence in March.
Twins Emily and Alex Akers,
Prairie Village seniors, spoke with
their business partner Danny
Williams on New Years Day about
opening the bar. It will be located
at the corner of Seventh and New
Hampshire streets, where Last Call
used to reside.
Now, construction and paint-
ing are under way, and the young
entrepreneurs are looking for nine
to 12 pianists to play at the bar.
They obviously have to have a
huge personality and cant be shy,
Alex said. And they have to know
what theyre doing and how to get
the audience involved.
The dueling piano concept fea-
tures two pianists sitting at pia-
nos facing each other as they play
song requests from the audience.
Requests accompanied by tips go to
the top of the list; the bigger the tip,
the faster the song will get played.
For the majority of dueling
piano bars, theres a list of about
300 songs the player has to know,
Alex said. And wed love for the
players to know most of those.
Last year, Emily went to a duel-
ing piano bar in San Antonio dur-
ing the Final Four, an experience
which helped inspire the sisters
business venture.
Fans from all four of the teams
were there competing with tips to
get their fight song played, Emily
said.
We think that every college
town should have one, especial-
ly with Kansas and K-State and
Mizzou all being so close and play-
ing here, Alex said. The rivalry is
just intense and to have basketball
and football during that time and
people in here, itll be a blast.
Inside the bar there will be four
V.I.P. balconies two smaller and
two larger which will overlook
the stage. Barrels will be placed
all around the bar and the walls
will be painted with red, black and
some tan to give the bar an old
classy feel.
Alex said the name Barrel
House, which was what the clubs
were referred to about 70 years ago,
came from a family friend.
Back in the 1930s and 1940s,
they were underground jazz clubs
and eventually in the night they
would break out into improv piano
music, Alex said.
The money to get the Barrel
House running came from three
private investors and will be paid
back, Alex said.
To ensure that Alex and Emily
would have financial security, their
dad made a rule that each of them
has to find an additional job.
I dont know if thats going to
happen quite as early as hed like,
Emily said. My biggest worry Ive
had was finding a job after college
and its here.
Wallace Meyer, director of
entrepreneurship programs at the
School of Business, said although
starting a business is hard work, it
can be rewarding for entrepreneurs
to do what they love.
You get to be your own boss,
realize your dream and achieve
financial independence, Meyer
said. Plus, while its hard work, its
a lot of fun.
The Barrel House is scheduled to
open March 26.

For student artists with drawings
in the Salty Dogs exhibition of
The Red Door Art Gallery, inspira-
tion came in forms ranging from
politics to books to nature.
For Alicia Kelly, it all started
when she took a bite of durian, a
type of Malaysian fruit.
It was so epic that I felt that I
needed to draw it, Kelly, Tulsa,
Okla., senior and printmaking
major, said.
Kelly recreated the image of the
durian in what would become one
of her biggest and most progressive
drawings.
Her drawing has joined an exhi-
bition of 40 other pieces of artwork
by KU students at the Red Door
Art Gallery located at 1735 Walnut
Ave. in Kansas City, Mo.
The Red Door Art Gallery is a
student-run gallery in Kansas Citys
Crossroads Arts District where
students can learn the behind-the-
scenes work of an art gallery, said
Kristi Arnold, gallery director and
art lecturer. Arnold said it also gave
the students the chance to venture
out of the Lawrence area and gain
experience with the art scene in
Kansas City.
The exhibition, Salty Dogs,
features drawings and two-dimen-
sional artwork by students who
took associate art professor Michael
Kruegers Advanced Drawing
course last fall. The show opened
on Feb. 6, during Kansas Citys
First Fridays event, and will be
open through Feb. 28.
The work displayed is really
a mixture of approaches to con-
temporary drawing, Krueger said.
The students stayed true to them-
selves with the utmost integrity.
After featuring some of the stu-
dent drawings in Lawrence galler-
ies, Krueger said he requested to
jon Goering/KANsAN
Alicia Kelly, tulsa, Okla., senior, shows one of her four pieces of artwork she chose for Salty Dogs. The exhibition stays open until the end of
the month. Students, faculty and alumni can submit work to be put on display at the gallery.

Terrebonne Po-Boys and Desserts

Alligator Po-Boy with seasoned fries....... $9
Type of restaurant: Lunch car-
ryout
Overall star rating: 4 out of 5
Signature dish: Po-Boys, $7-$8
Tastes like: Bufalo Bobs mixed
with New Orleans Cajun favor
Price range: $2.75-$8
What I ate: Take one: Alligator
Po-Boy with Seasoned Fries,
$9; Take two: Gourmet Grilled
Cheese with pesto and roasted
red peppers, $4.95
Review: Terrebonne does
a diferent take on traditional
lunch. Since almost all its food is
carryout, guests walk in and or-
der at the counter from a diverse
menu of homemade soups and
salads, sandwiches, barbecue
and of course, po-boys.
The po-boy is a sandwich that
has a spicy Cajun sauce and
lettuce on it. Usually they have
some kind of seafood on them.
The food is made-to-order, so
there is waiting time involved.
The pleasant employees take
the time to chat with guests
while making their meals, and
although there is one table
where guests can eat, it seems
most take their meals on-the-go.
The restaurant is open for lunch
during the week and lunch and
dinner on the weekends.
The po-boy tasted just as ex-
pected: delicious alligator, with
a strong seasoning, but not too
much bite. The alligator basically
tastes like fried chicken, only a
bit chewier.
The grilled cheese was a pleas-
ant surprise because of the pesto
and pepper favoring. Their
homemade desserts are always
changing.
Terrebonne is also a great val-
ue because some sides, such as
chips and pickles, are included.
This restaurant would make a
great pick for anyone looking to
have a value gourmet lunch on
the run.

A cast of seven women, wear-
ing dresses in seven colors of the
rainbow, will take the stage this
weekend to delve into the many
shades of complicated issues.
This weekend the Multicultural
Theatre Initiative will present its
second production, For Colored
Girls Who Have Considered
Suicide When the Rainbow is
Enuf, a play written by Ntozake
Shange. DeAndrea Herron, execu-
tive director of the MTI, said the
play illuminated the identity of
women in America as the charac-
ters revealed themselves their
lives, triumphs, hardships and
ultimately their discovery of inner
strength and love.
She described the play as stun-
ning and explosive; a play that
women from all walks of life can
connect to and that men can
respect and admire.
Koga Moffor, Overland Park
senior, is playing the Lady in Blue.
She said she thought the situa-
tions portrayed would resonate
with audience members, wheth-
er they knew someone who had
gone through something similar or
experienced it firsthand.
It is a lot about coming into
your own; whatever you have gone
through as a woman, its about
finding yourself, Moffor said.
The play is a compilation of
monologues, poetry and music.
The characters describe their rela-
tionships with men, friends, their
community and themselves. It is
set in a time when segregation
and prejudice were prominent. The
play addresses issues such as abor-
tion, bad relationships, virginity
and rape.
You have to give your whole self
to this and jump in feet first, not
being afraid to fall, Herron said.
Some actresses are veterans,
while this will be Moffors first act-
ing experience.
We have a wide array of expe-
rience in acting going on in this
play. I think that makes it very
real, Moffor said. Not only is the
material interesting, funny, heart-
breaking, empowering, and strik-
ing, but also you will see an amaz-
ingly diverse cast and seasoned
actresses and other people who
are completely new to it. It should
be great.
Herron said that she had wanted
to either perform the play or direct
it and that this experience was a
dream come true.
This has been an amazing expe-
rience for all of us. The cast is sim-
ply beautiful and I sincerely mean
that, Herron said. They bring so
many diverse qualities to this show.
It has been a journey for all of us.
Herron said she saw herself
and women in her life portrayed
through stories in the play. Not all
women voice the events in their
lives, but the play gives a voice to
some topics that have been silent,
Herron said.
Being surrounded by women in
my life who have been pushed to
the limit but have stood strong and
come out on top is why I do this
show, Herron said. If they can
make it, we all can.
Felicia Fairley, 2008 graduate,
is playing the Lady in Red. Fairley
said the play had strong language
and adult content, and a profound
message for those mature enough
to handle it.
Although I have graduated from
the University, I still get the satis-
faction of being a part of a wonder-
ful production, Fairley said. This
is a powerful piece that I feel all
students should see.

ASSOCIATED PRESS
SACRAMENTO, Calif. Why
did it take California lawmakers so
long to pass a budget to close the
states $42 billion deficit? To find
one reason, look about 3,000 miles
east to an office in Washington.
Anti-tax advocate Grover
Norquist has been persuading law-
makers across the country to sign
a pledge to vote against any and all
tax increases.
Serve and protect the state
not loot it, the president of
Americans for Tax Reform said in
an interview this week.
Norquist said one in six state
lawmakers across the country has
signed his Taxpayer Protection
Pledge. Members of Congress, gov-
ernors and attorneys general also
have signed it.
In California, 40 of the 44
Republicans in the Legislature
and not one of the 75 Democrats
have signed on. And nearly every
one of the GOP lawmakers refused
to break their vow even as Gov.
Arnold Schwarzenegger, a fellow
Republican, warned of financial
Armaggedon unless the two-year
tax-raising budget was approved.
He said that the deficit was so big it
could not be closed with cuts alone
and that those who thought so had
a big math problem.
The final spending plan to close
Californias shortfall through June
2010 includes $12.8 billion in high-
er sales, personal income and auto
taxes.
Im not voting for the budget
because I signed a tax pledge; Im
not voting for the bill because rais-
ing taxes will devastate our econo-
my for all Californians, said state
Sen. Tony Strickland of Thousand
Oaks, one of those who kept their
word.
Some Democratic lawmakers
see the no-tax pledge taken by
their counterparts as irresponsible
and an obstacle to compromise.
That signature clearly abrogates
the legislative responsibility which
voters entrusted to them, said Sen.
Mark Leno, a Democrat from San
Francisco. Its as stupid as my
signing a pledge that Ill never
make cuts.
As if to underscore that point,
many of those who signed
Norquists pledge are finding they
have to backpedal as the nations
recession deepens and they are left
with few options to close gaping
budget deficits.

Center.
In order to make up for
those costs without raising fees,
McGonigle said, all required
campus fees would be closely
scrutinized over the next month
by a fee review board of stu-
dent senators. Some fees would
have to be cut or reduced in
order to provide more funding to
those organizations that need an
increased budget.
There are several fees that
cant be reduced because they
fund construction projects that
have not yet been paid off. Some
of these include the Student
Union building fee and the fee
to fund recreational facilities.
McGonigle recommended to
the fee review committee that
the campus media fee and the
campus safety fee be closely scru-
tinized. If both fees were to be
cut it would free up $5.75 from
each students semester total.
That money could be redistrib-
uted to Watkins and the recre-
ation center.
Brian Hardouin, Topeka grad-
uate student and chairman of
the Fee Review Committee, said
those fees were being looked at
because they did not directly
affect peoples jobs.

exhibit the work at the Red Door
Art Gallery.
Since its opening in August, the
gallery has held seven exhibitions
featuring artwork from KU stu-
dents, faculty and alumni.
The Salty Dogs title for this
months show came from Andrew
Burkitt of Lawrence, who graduat-
ed in December and took Kruegers
class. Burkitt said that the title came
from a 1930s blues song that con-
nected with the shows artwork.
A lot of drawings in the show
have a little saltier way to look-
ing at things than typical fine art,
Burkitt said.
Burkitt said some of the saltier
artwork included a drawing of a
girl throwing up in a toilet and a
drawing of someones head with
gutters for guts.
Burkitt has four drawings in the
show, all of which have an eco-
logical theme and center around
the environment. He used colored
pencils, watercolor and pen and
ink to create one drawing of chil-
dren in a landfill and another piece
of art inspired by the clean coal
issue in Kansas.
Images of Teddy Roosevelt and
Arnold Schwarzenegger are pres-
ent in Andrew Jilkas three draw-
ings in the exhibition.
Jilka, Salina senior and print-
making major, used pen and ink
and colored pencil to create draw-
ings that deal with hyper-mascu-
linity and how it has shaped the
way Americans think about life.
Everybody to an extent can
relate to drawings
because at some
point everybody
has made a draw-
ing, even if you
were four years
old, he said. It
makes it a little
easier to relate to
the audience if its
a medium theyre
familiar with.
Kellys durian drawing is one of
four pieces she chose for the show.
She said a lot of her artwork fea-
tured organic and abstract shapes
from nature. She often sews above
her pen and ink drawings to create
a three dimensional texture on a
two-dimensional surface.
Kelly said one of the joys of cre-
ating art was seeing where it took
her and watching it
progress, even if her
artwork often feels
unfinished.
I think thats how
it should be because
its like stair steps,
Kelly said. Youre
constantly striving for
the next step.
The Salty Dogs
exhibition is open
by appointment only. To make an

Students auction of souls for charity
BY ALEXANDRA GARRY
[email protected]
A smiling, outgoing man wear-
ing plastic devil horns jokingly
heckles the small audience in front
of him. Hes trying to get them to
part with more of their money
for a good cause, he says.
Come on, guys, he says, urg-
ing them to increase their bids
in an auction for the rights to his
own soul. Satan says community
service is good.
The man is Joey Ralph,
Hutchinson sophomore and vice
president of the Society of Open-
Minded Atheists and Agnostics.
Hes hocking his soul or rath-
er, his commitment to serve 50
hours of community service with
the group of the winning bidders
choice to raise money for the
Douglas County AIDS Project.
Ralph organized and served
as devilish auctioneer of SOMAs
fifth-annual Soul Auction, held
in the Kansas Union last night.
Group members selling themselves
committed to various services such
as tutoring, cooking, cleaning,
doing community service, going
out on dates and attending church
services in exchange for donations,
half of which went to SOMA and
half to DCAP.
The event, Ralph said, was part of
the small but longstanding groups
recent and upcoming efforts to
bolster its size and increase aware-
ness of its message.
Theres a perception out there
that people who dont have reli-
gion dont have very good morals,
Ralph said. Were trying to put
out a good name out there for
atheists and agnostics.
A 2008 study by the Pew
Research Center found that 54
percent of Americans questioned
said they had an unfavorable
view of people without religious
beliefs. Ralph said his group was
small, but growing, and that he felt
negative perceptions were slowly
but surely decreasing.
Paul Mirecki, associate professor
of religious studies and SOMAs
faculty adviser, said the auction
was the groups tongue-in-cheek
effort to poke fun at negative ste-
reotypes of atheists and agnostics
as souless people.
Its a humorous idea to people
who dont believe how can they
auction off something that they
dont have? Mirecki said. Its
playing into the idea of the soul
as a social conception, but its not
meant to offend.
Mirecki said challenges to the
religious majority in America are
not usually appreciated.
This is unfortunate, he said,
because these kind of institutions
should be open to criticism
after all, what would America be
without challenging the system?
Clayton Perkins, Overland Park
junior and SOMA president, said
one of the groups main aims was
to provide a social network and
community for students interested
in getting involved in a club but
not interested in religion.
The Student Involvement and
Leadership Center has more than
15 registered campus groups relat-
ing to religion, many of which are
related to Christianity.
Jason Badgett, Paola junior and
president of Campus Christians,
said he didnt support a lack of
religious faith, but did support the
group and its fundraising efforts.
I dont think anybody should
feel rejected or feel like they dont
have a place to belong, Badgett
said.
Ralph said SOMA had been
poorly organized in the past, but
that he and Perkins were excited
about the groups future and plan
to hold bigger and more ambitious
events, including hosting religious
speakers and more social events.
Ralphs 50 hours of community
service went for $30. In total, the
group raised $193.

Crime
Miami man convicted of kidnapping, murder in boat hijacking case
ASSOCIATED PRESS
MIAMI A one-time security
guard was convicted Tursday of
murder, kidnapping and other
charges for his role in the 2007
hijacking of the Joe Cool char-
ter boat at sea and killing of four
people whose bodies were never
found.
Guillermo Zarabozo, 21, sat
stonefaced as he was found guilty
of 16 charges, including four frst-
degree murder counts that carry
mandatory life sentences.
Zarabozo was convicted of plot-
ting the Joe Cool takeover with
Kirby Archer, 37, an Arkansas
fugitive who previously pleaded
guilty. Authorities say they paid
$4,000 for what was supposed to
be a short trip to Bimini, Bahamas,
then fatally shot the boats captain,
his wife and two crew members
and changed course for Cuba.
Teir scheme failed when the
boat ran out of fuel a few miles
outside Cuban waters. Te two
men were eventually rescued adrif
in the life raf from the Joe Cool.
Killed were captain Jake Bran-
am, 27; his wife, Kelley Branam,
30; and crew members Scott Gam-
ble, 35, and Samuel Kairy, 27. Te
Branams lef behind two small
children who now live with Kelley
Branams sister.
Jakes cousin, Jonathan Branam,
22, was among the last to see the
victims alive. Outside court Turs-
day, he said the verdict against
Zarabozo brought a sense of relief.
He took four people who were
very close to me away from me,
Jonathan Branam said. Tis is a
big closure for me. Im really happy
its over.
Zarabozos mother, weeping
and visibly distraught, declined
to speak with reporters, as did
Zarabozos defense attorneys. U.S.
Attorney R. Alexander Acosta is-
sued a short statement praising the
eforts of prosecutors Karen Gil-
bert, Jefrey Tsai and Michael Gil-
farb and investigators from various
agencies.
Zarabozo was convicted of con-
spiracy; four counts each of frst-
degree murder and kidnapping;
robbery; hijacking and violence
aboard a ship; and four weapons
charges.
U.S. District Judge Paul Huck set
sentencing for May 6.
Testifying in his own defense,
Zarabozo blamed the killings sole-
ly on Archer and said he thought
they were going to Bimini for a lu-
crative security job that would lead
to CIA work in Cuba. Zarabozo
admitted bringing his 9 mm Glock
pistol aboard the boat but said he
never shot anyone, and that Archer
threatened to kill him as well.
Both men initially told investi-
gators the Joe Cool had been set
upon at sea by Cuban pirates who
had killed the four people, but Ar-
cher later admitted that was a lie.
Prosecutors, however, had evi-
dence that Zarabozo was a willing
participant in the plot. New evi-
dence for the second trial included
computer messages and chats be-
tween Zarabozo and his friends in-
dicating he was planning a trip to
Cuba and might turn up on news

Tearful Del Toro headlines
9 dismissals from Idol
LOS ANGELES Tatiana Del
Toro had something else to cry
about. The emotional 28-year-old
crooner from San Juan, Puerto
Rico, was one of nine Ameri-
can Idol semifnalists booted
Wednesday.
Del Toro, whom judge Simon
Cowell called a drama queen
after her performance Tuesday,
bawled after she wasnt selected
to continue in the Fox singing
competition.
Its up to America, she told
host Ryan Seacrest before the re-
sults. Its up to the power of love.
No tears were shed by the frst
three fnalists of season eight:
Alexis Grace, the soulful 21-year-
old single mother from Memphis,
Tenn.; Michael Sarver, the beefy
27-year-old oil rig worker from
Jasper, Texas; and Danny Gokey,
the spikey-haired 28-year-old
church music director from
Milwaukee. The trio received the
most viewer votes.
Recent widower Gokey over-
whelmed the judges with Mariah
Careys Hero at the conclusion
of Tuesdays episode. They were
also impressed with Graces take
on Aretha Franklins Never Loved
a Man.

arents, student and others
gladly pay thousands of
dollars in college tuition
to ensure a financially sound
existence after graduation. The
American dream is founded
on the ideal that if a person
works hard enough, he or she
can achieve anything. A student
must spend countless hours
studying, network like crazy, land
a few internships along the way,
complete a degree and then maybe
with some luck a job offer will
appear. Persevere, were told, and
itll pay off. But what if no matter
how much effort you put into your
aspirations, there were people out
there without the grades, ambition
or skills who could still snatch up
opportunities you deserve?
Turns out theres a fast track
where some students get to skip
over all the aches and pains, but
still achieve the goals of their
more dedicated peers.
Starting-level jobs achieved
through internships are a
common form of employment
for fresh graduates. For most
of us, achieving our dream jobs
will require a combination of
experience, personal zest for a
subject and a decent GPA. Pretty
soon a few extra thousand
dollars may be added to that list.
In her article Internships For
Sale in the Wall Street Journal,
Ellen Gamerman exposed the
disturbing tactic some are using
to get ahead. Rather than applying
for an internship position the
old-fashioned way, ritzy parents
now have the option of buying
their child an internship at
auctions across the U.S. Of
course these auctions are usually
found at only the most elite
universities and high schools.
These parents are willing to
spend ridiculous amounts of
money. For example, a one-week
internship at Electronic Arts sold
for a whopping $4,000 during
an auction at the Urban School
of San Francisco. This is an
absolutely unfair advantage.
Sadly, auctions are just the
beginning. Timothy Noah of
Slate magazine writes in his
article Opportunity for Sale
that organizations like University
of Dreams will guarantee an
internship for a price. Of
course, University of Dreams
says students are simply paying
a tuition fee ranging from
$5,000 to $10,000. Thats not far
from the cost of in-state tuition
for a semester at the University.
As if those who can afford to
buy internships arent already
benefiting from their financial
stability (i.e., affording the best
universities, tutors and housing).
With the current economic
situation, many students are
feeling the pressure to ensure
jobs after graduation. Terrified at
the thought of another summer
without an internship, desperate
students may do whatever it takes
to build a resume and eventually
land a job, even if it means forking
out some extra cash. Companies
taking advantage of students
desires to succeed by selling
internships is just wrong.
I thought the point of an
internship was to give students
experience that would assist them
when establishing a career not
put them deeper in debt. I cant
imagine how these companies
justify exploiting an adolescents
goals.
But the students are at fault,
too. After all, what is the point
of spending so much money
to attend college if you still
have to buy your way into the
work world? I also cant help
but wonder how much respect
interns who got their positions
via mommy and daddys money
would have if their peers were
aware of their situation.
If you cant land an internship
on your own, maybe you should
re-evaluate your dedication to
school and your major not
take opportunities away from
qualified individuals or encourage
dishonorable companies.

P
ope: I cant believe it! We
actually got an e-mail I
mean, I have finally cho-
sen a submission from the 3,292
(but whos counting) possible
arguments our dear readers have
sent since our last desperate plea.
What is this feeling? Could it be
love?
Snyder: I dont care what it is,
just dont clog the toilet again. Let
me see that letter. It looks like its
from a Mr. Joe Pancake? We
have the best readers. Anyway,
Joe faces a rather interesting
predicament. With the economy
tanking, he cannot decide which
love deserves the last vestiges of
his savings booze or food. I
know which one Id choose.
Pope: What? Sorry, Im three
sheets to the wind right now.
Since its our first user-submitted
argument, I feel this calls for a
little extra something.
Pope and Snyder:
SUB-HEADING TIME!!!
COsT
Pope: This is going to be too
easy. If you think creatively,
booze can be classified as food
and drink, which makes it much
more economical than either of
them separately. It practically sells
itself. Its the ShamWow of vices.
Snyder: The last time you
thought creatively, it ended with
five angry policemen, your pants
in a tree and a whole lot of emo-
tionally scarred third graders.
Pope: Whatever, that was the
best magic trick ever.
Snyder: Getting back on topic,
once youve calmed the rage that
its commercials stir within, it
becomes clear that the $5 you-
know-what is a much better deal.
Eat one every day until you die of
scurvy and think of all the money
youll save for the funeral!
enTerTAinMenT VALue
Pope: I dont think I need
to illustrate just how enjoyable
alcohol can make even the most
mundane activities. Heck, it even
makes Nicolas Cage movies darn-
near watchable. Is there anything
it cant do?
Snyder: Yeah, it cant improve
your abysmal dancing skills. But
while entertainment via inebria-
tion is a relatively new experience
for most of us, playing with food
has been a lifelong pastime. Here
comes the choo-choo train was
enough for us to eat our veg-
etables, and food fights made the
most wretched of cafeteria meals
enjoyable. Who knows, with a
little imagination maybe you
could make yourself a Mrs. Joe
Pancake.
CAMPus LiFe
Pope: Normally, I would advise
against sipping the dangerous
cocktail of lectures with a booze
chaser, but sometimes a little
Baileys in your coffee can really
help jump-start the day.
Snyder: More like dumpstart
your day, right? Thats two poop
jokes in one column. And they
said it couldnt be done.
Pope: Plus, alcohol has this
wonderful effect of making
everyone more attractive, and
honestly, who wouldnt enjoy a
campus full of beautiful people?
Not that it isnt already, ladies.
(Call me.)
Snyder: The attractiveness
only goes one way, buddy. After
you show up to class drunk-
enly screaming for a field trip to
Jimmy Johns, dont be surprised
when nobody calls.
Pope: I hope weve helped
answer your question, Joe. Just
know that, no matter which
industry you choose to support, it
will be a much better investment
than giving that money to Wall
Street.
Snyder: Youre welcome.

are times often elicit rare
measures. It is clear our
college years apply.
We may be in the midst of one
of the countrys most pronounced
recessions, but it is far from
our first or last. If history is any
indication, we will recover only
to find ourselves dealing with
another economic mess say in
2040.
And with exorbitant bail-
out and stimulus packages in
Washington, and Kansas lawmak-
ers using state employee pay-
checks and income tax refunds
as political pawns, clearly fresh
ideas will forever be welcome in
dealing with economic plights at
home and abroad.
One such thought occurred to
me two weeks ago between bites
of an elk burger downtown at
Local Burger.
This burger is delicious, I
thought, and its healthier than
the diabetes-inducing patties at
McDonalds to boot. All of its
ingredients are grown and har-
vested locally, so could this con-
cept be further expanded to help
cure some of our local economys
ills?
Going local is often inspired by
ecological concerns, but another
green was on my mind that
day. Did that burger represent an
example of untapped economic
potential?
Local Burger owner Hillary
Browns entrepreneurial spirit has
led the restaurant to grow dur-
ing its more than three and a half
years. Community building and
transparency and accountability
in food production are among
her top aims, but she does see a
possibility for prosperity should
more Lawrence businesses follow
suit, she said.
There is so much potential,
Brown said. If regions focus on
what they do best and create the
best products with them, then
there will also be an increase in
ecotourism.
Another theory often attached
to buying local is that, theoreti-
cally, if the stars aligned and we
all purchased local products, pro-
ducers will in turn reinvest those
earnings into the local economy.
Alas, with all theories nothing
is guaranteed and we are more
likely to find legislation pushing
protectionist measures in the near
future to attempt to save jobs and
boost local economies.
If local residents choose to
consume more services locally,
then this will indeed expand
the local economy, said Joshua
Rosenbloom, professor of eco-
nomics. If, however, the idea
is to restrict peoples choices to
force them to buy more goods
locally this will raise costs and
result overall in a loss of well
being.
How then can we prevent pro-
tectionist measures but also boost
our local communitys well being?
And how can we boost our local
economy while at the same time
continuing to encourage a global
market one in which foreign
companies set up shop here thus
creating more American jobs?
Localism is not to be discour-
aged, yet those who choose to
exclusively employ local resources
comprise a small portion of the
population their benefits are
often a sense of personal well
being rather than a true boost to
the communitys economy.
Though the majority of us
students can do little to sway
anybody on Capitol Hill, as con-
sumers we can do our part around
Campanile Hill. If we choose
to buy anywhere from 10 to 50
percent (or more) of our supplies
locally, we will supplant those
who do so exclusively, giving local
merchants an extraordinary boost
and increase the chances that they
do reinvest this money at home.
We still yet have the potential
to play a role in helping grow our
community without the need for
bureaucratic imposition.

The cult of the collegiate Nap
Camille Framroze

The Daily Princetonian
You know the drill. You have a
10-page paper due at 4 p.m. With
much reluctance, you sit at your
desk, open up your laptop and
glare murderously at the comput-
er screen. You havent the faintest
idea what to do. You decide that
the 10 minutes of intense strat-
egizing merits a break, and you
realize that you have time for a
nap! One-and-a-half hours later,
having turned off the alarm, you
groggily look at the time: 4:10
p.m.
The Collegiate Nap seems
less like a habit and more like a
crucial feature of our culture. The
first thing that I did after final-
izing my schedule was to check
which days would offer optimal
napping privileges.
One of my friends precedes
each nap with a request to wake
her up. But when we try, she
responds venomously. My lab
got rescheduled! My lectures
canceled! None of these is true.
Its a weakness that she calls
sleep lying because she never
remembers saying any of this
when she wakes up, furious and
frantic, seven hours later.
When confronted with an
essay, 200 pages of reading and
a problem set, perhaps the only
reasonable response is to humbly
accept defeat, close your eyes
and sink into blissful slumber. It
makes one wonder how well get
through the stresses of an actual
job without a pillow stowed
under the desk, conveniently
placed for the essential six naps
during an eight-hour work day.

It used to be that KU students
could work out 30 minutes a day
and stay in shape.
Recent studies say that may not
be enough.
Research by Joseph Donnelly,
director of the Center of Physical
Activity and Weight Management,
suggests students, and people in
general, may need to step up their
exercise efforts if they want to
maintain or lose weight.
Donnelly had research pub-
lished in Februarys Medicine &
Science in Sports & Exercise Journal
of the American College of Sports
Medicine for his research in weight
loss.
ACSM is the largest and most
respected professional organiza-
tion that has its
major mission as
the investigation
of exercise and
health, Donnelly
said.
D o n n e l l y s
research focused
on investigating
adequate exer-
cise practices. His
studies challenged
research from 2001 regarding the
amount of physical activity neces-
sary for a person to avoid gain-
ing weight. It was believed that a
minimum of 150 minutes a week,
which breaks down to 30 minutes a
weekday, was sufficient for improv-
ing health and losing weight.
Donnelly and oth-
ers researchers now
believe 150 to 250
minutes a week, leads
to successful weight
loss as well as weight
gain prevention. The
article stated that exer-
cising more than 250
minutes would lead
to more significant
weight loss.
Id have to agree, Hollie
Swindler, Mott, N.D., graduate stu-
dent, said.
Swindler is studying health edu-
cation and said she knew 45 to 60
minutes of cardiovascular work was
necessary to lose weight.
If you can fit that into your
schedule, you should, she said.
Swindler said 30 minutes of
physical activity was an achievable
goal for someone who was hesitant
to work out for long periods of
time.
Anything is better than noth-
ing, Donnelly said.
He said it was important to stay
active throughout the day.
If the past and present presi-
dents of the U.S. can find time, any-
one can find time, Donnelly said.
Alex Miller, Bonner Springs
junior, said his main goal as a per-
sonal trainer at the Ambler Student
Recreation Fitness Center was to
get clients moving. He often rec-
ommends clients take walks when
theyre bored, read while doing
cardio on the machines and do
crunches while watching TV.
Donnelly said hundreds of KU
students had participated in weight
loss studies in the past.
We are always looking for people
to participate in our studies, said
Lori Fowler, administrative aid for
The Life Span Institute. Participants
can be compensated anywhere from
$1,000 to $2,000 after completion of
studies ranging nine to ten months.
Depending on the study, partici-
pants may also receive meals and
exercise facilities.
Donnelly said he and other
researchers at The Life Span Institute
had about a dozen exercise-related
studies under way. Researchers are
also studying protein supplementa-
tion and weight training.
Fowler said applicants knew
within one to two weeks if they
were eligible for a study.
If an individual does not qualify
for our projects, then we put them
in our database and inform them
of any upcoming opportunities,
Fowler said.

Pink Zone game to bring in donations
BY ADAM SAMSON
[email protected]
Kansas womens basketball will
don pink uniforms and team up
with Kansas Athletics in an effort
to advance breast cancer aware-
ness with the Pink Zone initiative,
this Sunday at noon.
The Pink Zone initiative was
started in 2007 by the Womens
Basketball Coaches Association to
raise breast cancer awareness in
womens basketball on cam-
puses and in communities.
According to the WBCA Web
site, more that 1,500 schools and
organizations are participating
this year, an in-
crease of more
than 25 percent
from 2008.
The first 5,000
fans to arrive at
Allen Fieldhouse
for Sundays game
will receive a
free pink T-shirt
courtesy of
Lawrence Memorial
Hospital. Kansas Athletics Inc.
will donate $1 for each fan attend-
ing, which will be divided between
Lawrence Memorial Hospital and
the University of Kansas Cancer
Center. In addition to the Kansas
Athletics donation, Henrickson
will donate $1 out of her own
pocket for every KU student in
attendance.
We were looking for a unique
way to be supportive, Henrickson
said. Its a way to create aware-
ness with young men and women
on campus.
Associate athletics director Jim
Marchiony said the event was a
way for Henrickson to express her
dedication to the cause.
It just shows you the depth of
care that Bonnie has in relation to
this issue and the empathy she has
for everyone that this disease has
affected, Marchiony said.
Steven Wallace, graduate assis-
tant manager for the womens
team, will hold Sundays game
close to his heart when the team
sports its pink and blue jerseys.
Its such a big deal, Wallace
said. I think its great that so
many people will be supporting
it.
When the Jayhawks traveled
to Omaha, Neb., in December
to face Creighton, Wallace wore
a pink tie in honor of his aunt,
who is currently battling breast
cancer. Wallace said his aunt, an
Omaha resident, trekked to the
game with an oxygen tank at her
side and tubes running through
her nose, because Wallace asked
her to be there.
First thing I think of when I
see pink is my aunt,
Wallace said.
Even though
his aunt cant be
at Sundays game,
Wallace said he sent
her one of the pink
warm-ups the team
would be sporting on
Sunday before the
game.
It is very gratifying to see
so many people wearing pink
and reinforces why we do it,
Marchiony said. We know that
this is an important effort that
involves a lot of people whom
have been affected in one way or
another.
North Carolina State womens
coach Kay Yow was diagnosed
with breast cancer in 1987.
Henrickson said Yows death in
January magnified the breast can-
cer awareness event. Yow achieved
700 career victories throughout
her battle with breast cancer.
It is more emotional for those
that knew her and understood
and knew how wonderful of a
women she was, Henrickson
said. It brings a brighter light
on the event for all of those who
have participated in the event.

Jayhawk Fans,
I am writing this letter to ask for your help in fghting breast
cancer. On Sunday, Feb. 22, our Kansas womens basketball team
will host Iowa State in our annual Pink Zone game. Our Jayhawks
will proudly sport pink uniforms as they face the nationally-
ranked Cyclones in an important game in the Big 12 Conference
race. More importantly, they will be assisting in fnding a cure for
a deadly disease.
Kansas Athletics has generously agreed to donate $1 for every
person in attendance, with the money going to both Lawrence
Memorial Hospital and the University of Kansas Cancer Center.
In addition, I will donate $1 out of my own pocket for every KU
student in attendance.
So grab a friend or family member and head over to Allen
Fieldhouse at noon this Sunday, Feb. 22, and be a part of the
Jayhawks fght against breast cancer!
Celebrate, Remember and Fight Back. Thank you for your help.
Rock Chalk!

Will this
game be
just like
football?
By kelly Breckunitch
[email protected]
I
n recent years, the Jayhawks
have had some success against
Nebraska in football. After
a winless drought that went on
far too long, KU has defeated
Nebraska twice over the past four
years. In those two victories KU
piled on the pain with margins of
victory of 25 and 37 points.
Those scores led right into a per-
fect basketball chant. Just like foot-
ball, echoed in the rafters of Allen
Fieldhouse in the victorious years.
Nebraska was a cakewalk game for
the Jayhawks in basketball, so when
the football scores mirrored the
basketball scores, it became a per-
fect method of humiliation.
Those years KU lost in football,
though, were tough. In 2005 the
Jayhawks gave up the ball four
times on turnovers and, this past
season, allowed Nebraska running
back Roy Helu Jr. to run up and
down the field all day.
All that leads up to a bad omen
for Saturdays game. Jayhawk fans
better hope the game is the polar
opposite of this years football
game.
There is some symmetry in
Helus speed on the football field
and Nebraskas team speed on the
basketball court, which almost gave
Nebraska an upset victory against
the Jayhawks in Lincoln, Neb., ear-
lier this season.
That game was an eye-opener
for most fans and showed this
team has some vulnerability. Now,
Nebraska has seen Missouris
up-tempo game throw off the
Jayhawks. Nebraska will take what
they can from that and bring it to
Allen Fieldhouse.
They play a smaller lineup
that favors their speed and cre-
ates matchup problems for the
Jayhawks.
Kansas post players arent
the fastest at getting set on the
defensive end and Nebraska will
try to take advantage of that. Ade
Dagunduro has the potential to
pour in a lot of points for Nebraska
and Steve Harley fuels the inten-
sity of the team. Both had big
games against Kansas in Nebraska
and both will be a big factor in
Saturdays game.
Kansas has the longest home
winning streak in college basket-
ball right now. They always have
an advantage playing at home, but
Nebraska will pressure them.
This can be looked at as a typical
trap game. The Jayhawks go on the
road at Oklahoma for Big Monday
right after the Nebraska game. Will
they get caught looking ahead? Its
possible, and if they do, Nebraska
will make them pay.
Nebraska is on the rise in the
Big 12. They won three straight
conference games before falling to
Missouri last weekend. They just
toiled through a brutal matchup
with Colorado and won what was
an ugly game. Kansas fell into a lull
at times against Iowa State, and if
they do that Saturday, Nebraska
will take advantage with their
speed.
This game will test KUs focus
and, just like football, it could be
a deadlock through most of the
game and be decided in the final
minutes.

Pink zone Play
By JAySOn JenkS
[email protected]
Inside strength and condition-
ing coach Andrea Hudys ofce
hangs a framed pink Kansas jer-
sey. Printed at the top of the jersey
is the name Hudy; below that is
the number one.
Te jersey is a gif one that
coach Bonnie Henrickson and her
staf had specially made and de-
livered to Andreas mother, Mary,
before Kansas Pink Zone game on
Feb. 17 last season.
Each day, Andrea gets up from
her desk and looks over the jersey,
letting it serve as a constant re-
minder of the woman who used to
wrestle with her fve children; the
woman who showed Andrea the
importance of overcoming lifes
obstacles.
Mary K.
Hudy lost
her fght with
breast can-
cer on March
8, 2008 18
months afer
being diag-
nosed. She was
69 years old.
Oh my god, every day I think
of her, Andrea said, her voice
briefy fading. Its got to be at
least 50 times a day at least. She
was a big infuence on me.
Growing up in a modest house
in Huntingdon, Pa., a rural town
located 30 miles south of State
College, Andrea and her four old-
er siblings competed in everything
Who could make
it to the fridge fastest;
who could drink the
milk the quickest.
And, with a mom
who taught math and a
dad who taught social
sciences, everything
had consequences.
Lose the race; eat an
onion like an apple.
Tose ideals hard work, com-
petitive spirit and consequences
quickly became implanted in
Andrea.
A lot of people say their parents
are their best friends, Andrea
said. Well, my mom wasnt my
best friend. She was a disciplinar-
ian. She was critical. She was my
mom. But Id say she is the most
infuential person in my world.
Tats what made Marys trans-
formation from a water-skiing,
sled-riding source of energy to an
almost distant, helpless person so
hard.
Listen to Andrea talk about her
mother, even if only for a short
time, and the strength, fght and
confdence Mary possessed is un-
deniably evident. But in those 18
months, when the breast cancer
began to take its toll, sapping the
very confdence that Andrea so
clearly remembered, Mary wasnt
the same.
She had one of her episodes
where the breast cancer went to
her brain, Andrea said. She was
Team plays for cause close to heart

Andrea Hudy, strength and conditioning coach, remembers her mother, Mary Hudy, as a source of strength and inspiration. The elder Hudy died frombreast cancer March 8, 2008, 18 months after being diagnosed.

Jayhawks approach another Big 12 title win
By cASe keeFer
[email protected]
Sherron Collins can talk about it
now.
Collins, a junior guard, knows
that a sixth consecutive Big 12
Conference regular season champi-
onship is within reach for the Jay-
hawks, who are currently 10-1 and
in second place in the Big 12.
I think weve got a good chance,
Collins said.
For Kansas, its relatively simple.
Win its last fve conference games
and Kansas will hoist its 52nd con-
ference title.
Although the Jayhawks identi-
fed winning the Big 12 Champion-
ship as their goal at the beginning
of the season, the players havent
felt comfortable discussing it until
lately.
Of course, the Jayhawks are not
relaxing their focus on the next
game a Saturday matinee against
Nebraska at 3 p.m. But theyre al-
lowing themselves to think about
the conference crown.
Tats our main focus to win
the Big 12, freshman forward Mar-
cus Morris said. Tats what were
trying to do, but we can never skip
an opponent.
Te youngsters like Morris look
to Collins and sophomore center
Cole Aldrich the only players
who were part of the rotation on
last years national championship
team for leadership.
Aldrich chuckles at the whole
situation. A year ago, he was the
one observing how the veteran
Jayhawks fought toward the Big 12
championship. Now, Aldrich says
hes applying those lessons.
We learned so much from those
guys last year, Aldrich said. Were
just trying to teach these young
guys everything we learned from
those guys to make it a great year in
Kansas basketball history again.
If Kansas wins another confer-
ence title, it will be one of the most
improbable ones in school history.
Most preseason polls picked Kansas
to fnish fourth in the Big 12 be-
hind Oklahoma, Texas and Baylor.
Te Jayhawks have already ex-
ceeded those expectations. Collins
isnt surprised. He never let the
preseason hype bother him.
We knew if we do what we do,
wed be sitting at the top of the con-
ference where we are right now,
Collins said. It wasnt a big deal to
me.
Kansas coach Bill Self had fg-
ured the Jayhawks needed to be 9-1
going into the fnal three weeks of
the season to be in a position to win
the Big 12.
Yes, though Self urged his play-
ers never to look ahead of the next
game, he had formulated where
his team needed to be four months
later.
I think every coach does that a
little bit, Self said.
Mission accomplished, anyway.
Te Jayhawks are right where Self
envisioned them and three days
away from playing in a showdown
that could decide the conference
champion.
Kansas takes on Oklahoma, the
only team ahead of it in the stand-
ings at 11-0, Monday in Norman,
Okla. If Kansas beats Nebraska
Saturday, this game will determine
who is the top team in the Big 12.
Hopefully, we can be one game
behind, Self said, or if we get
lucky, maybe be tied going into that
game.
Oklahoma plays at Texas Satur-
day at 8 p.m. If the Longhorns upset
the Sooners, the Jayhawks will be
tied for frst place entering Monday
nights game.
Either way, the game Monday
will decide frst place in the confer-
ence. Either way, Kansas controls
its own destiny in playing for a Big
12 championship.

As with any college sport, non-
conference games are crucial to
finding the identity of a team,
especially one as young as the
Jayhawks.
Kansas officially opens its
season this afternoon against
Air Force at USA Stadium in
Millington, Tenn.
We are going to try to use that
road trip as a barometer and see
what lies ahead of us for confer-
ence play, coach Ritch Price said.
It will be hard to tell before
this first game what Kansas is
capable of doing. A revamped
starting rotation along with a new
outfield are major uncertainties
before todays game. Junior starter
Shaeffer Hall is expected to take
the mound and lead the young
staff, while fifth-year senior Nick
Faunce will command leadership
of the young outfielders while
playing in center.
They dont have a lot of expe-
rience at the Big 12 level, Faunce
said. But they all know how to
play the position and I have a
whole lot of faith in them.
The level of competition this
weekend certainly isnt going to
be at the level the Jayhawks will
see in the Big 12 Conference. Air
Force finished 18-33 last season,
its best finish since 2002. In 2006,
they finished 8-44. So the young
Kansas players shouldnt be too
intimidated or nervous about
starting the season today.
While the pitching has to
improve to make up for the new
lineup, Price has raved about how
talented the young arms are, and
the key will be the development
of those pitchers if Kansas is to
have any chance to repeat the
magic of the 2006 Big 12 champi-
onship season.
The kids we brought in have
the best arms of any freshman
class by far, Price said. It gives
us hope for the future, it gives us
something to build on, but Ive
been really pleased by the fresh-
man arms.
But what lies ahead after this
weekend could make some knees
shake.
During a two-week stretch in
March, Kansas will play host to
national powerhouses Arizona
State, Texas and Texas A&M.
If Kansas can come out of this
weekend unscathed it might be
able to pose a challenge to these
nationally rated programs.
That may be the toughest two
weeks anyone in America is going
to play, Price said. Were cer-
tainly going to have to be ready
by the middle of March to be able
to compete.

Kansas State Wildcats
Preseason Ranking: Unranked, 9th in Big 12
Kansas State lost a lot of talent, particularly from its pitching
staf, from last years 29-29 (11-16 Big 12) team. The Wildcats
11 conference wins and tie for sixth in the conference in
2008 were their highest fnishes in six
seasons. Their efort to repeat their
success must come without the aid of
honorable mention All-Big 12 pitcher
Brad Hutt, who graduated, and No.
2 starter Justin Murray, who was
selected in the 29th round of the 2008
MLB draft. Sophomore Thomas Rooke will provide relief out
of the bullpen for the fresh faces in the rotation after posting
a 5-1 record with a 3.59 ERA as a freshman. Junior infelder
Justin Bloxom will anchor the Wildcats lineup, leading all
returnees with a .288 average and eight home runs.

D
ont hate Kansas State
guard Denis Clemente.
Sure, Clemente com-
mitted his share of misdeeds in
Kansas 85-74 victory against
Kansas State last Saturday.
He elbowed sophomore
guard Brady Morningstar in the
back for no apparent reason.
He slapped sophomore guard
Tyrel Reed in the back of the
head with a move he must have
learned reading The Complete
Idiots Guide to Cowardice. To
top it all off, Clemente cried at
the end of the game more than
Angelina Jolie at the end of the
Changeling trailer.
But Kansas fans might as well
celebrate Clemente. Hes made
sure theres going to be plenty
of intrigue if the Jayhawks and
Wildcats face off again next
month in the Big 12 Conference
tournament in Oklahoma City.
Theres a good chance the two
teams will meet again at the Ford
Center. In winning seven of its
last eight games including
an 88-72 beat down of Missouri
Kansas State has proven its
playing better than every team in
the Big 12 except Oklahoma and
Kansas.
Too many regular season
games remain to start break-
ing down the scenarios of how
Sunflower Showdown part three
could appear in the tournament
bracket. But if both teams contin-
ue to play well, it could happen.
And because of Clemente, it
would be a must-see. In other
words, Clemente has somehow
breathed life into a series that was
completely lopsided this season
and for longer than that to be
truthful.
Kansas beat Kansas State by
17 and 11 points, respectively,
in its two meetings this season.
Another matchup at a neutral
location would result in an inevi-
table Jayhawk victory.
It would be interesting,
though, to see how ugly it could
get on the court. Interesting to
see if Clemente could control his
temper from getting in the way of
his undeniable basketball talent.
Interesting to see how much trash
talk is exchanged on the floor.
It would feel like a rivalry,
even though this one has been
nearing extinction for the last
two decades. Kansas has beaten
Kansas State 24 of the 26 times
theyve faced off since the Big 12
Conference was established.
A 24-2 record? Yikes, thats as
one-sided as The OReilly Factor.
Kansas 20-1 overall record at
Bramlage Coliseum is even
worse.
Kansas State commemorated
the one triumph an 84-75
Wildcat victory last season
with a two-disc DVD box set of
the game priced at $39.95. If that
doesnt speak to the state of the
rivalry, then nothing else will.
But none of that will matter
if Kansas and Kansas State play
again a month from now.
Thanks, Denis Clemente.

hudy (continued from 1b)
99 pounds and I picked her of the
foor and put her to bed. And she
didnt know where she was.
When you have to change
your parents diaper, it hits you to
the core.
n n n
Andrea still has the voice mail
that Mary lef, crying, afer last
years pink game. She wanted to
thank Henrickson and the team.
Te jersey on Andreas wall, the
one Kansas wears just once a year
and the one Mary kept in her hos-
pital room, meant more to Mary
than a simple gesture of kindness.
Tat jersey represented every-
thing Mary believed in.
I think thats one of the things
my mom recognized: she lost her
battle but she knew people were
supporting it, Andrea said. As
long as she had a team to turn to,
it gave her energy. It gave her a
reason to keep fghting.
Essentially, thats the purpose
of Kansas Pink Zone game Sun-
day at noon against Iowa State and
the purpose of Pink Zone games
across the nation.
But the games and the pink jer-
seys do much more. Tey provide
a sense of support. Tey honor
those lost, those continuing to
fght and those who defeated the
disease.
Maybe most important, the
Pink Zone initiative provides
hope.
For those who battled and per-
severed and for those lonely days
and lonely nights, even though
they have families, its still a ter-
rible disease thats frightening,
Henrickson said. For us, in our
own small way,
to brighten some-
ones day or bring
hope to people
and create aware-
ness, thats some-
thing were all
very, very proud
of.
On Sunday,
Kansas will wear
pink T-shirts be-
fore the game with Remember,
Celebrate and Fight Back written
across the back.
Te Jayhawks have lost four
straight games and havent won
two consecutive games since early
January. Yet, this game means
more to Kansas than any win or
loss.
It makes you realize that life
is so valuable, junior guard Sade
Morris said. Everything were go-
ing through right now with losing
and whatnot, it makes you real-
ize there are bigger problems out
there than basketball games.
Tis is life, this is cancer, this
is an illness that is killing people.
If you take a second to look at it,
things arent always as bad as they
seem.
n n n
Even now, when Andrea Hudy
walks down the street in her
hometown, a stranger will occa-
sionally stop her and begin telling
a story.
And the topic always seems to
be the same.
I get stories from
people that are 50
years old telling
me about how my
mom taught them
in math and how
far her infuence
has reached peo-
ple through their
lives, Andrea said.
You never know
when your education stops or
how much infuence you have on
someones life.
Andrea carries Marys lessons
each day. Te ability to fght, the
appreciation of hard work and
the continued pursuit of patience
those are all characteristics
passed down from Mary.
On Sunday, with the Pink
Zones continued fght against
breast cancer, Andrea will again
refect and relive the memory of
her mother just like shes done ev-
ery day. And she wont be alone
in doing so.
I guess when you get sick, you
feel like youre alone, Andrea
said. And it shows that a lot of
people arent alone. It gives them
a support group.
It shows people that they have
support in their own fghts.

Team plays ranked opponents
BY JUSTIN HILLEY
[email protected]
One year ago today Edina Hor-
vath, Budapest, Hungary, senior
and her teammates were preparing
for another weekend of dual match
play, which pitted them against No.
22 Kentucky.
Horvath was undefeated (5-0) in
both singles and doubles play, and
the team (2-3) was on a two-game
winning streak afer dropping its
frst three matches against ranked
opponents. Te two wins were
against unranked opponents. Kan-
sas lost to Kentucky (6-1) that week-
end, and Horvath sufered her frst
losses of the season in singles and
doubles matches.
Te Jayhawks, who are currently
third in the Big 12 with an overall
record of 4-1, have begun this sea-
son in a similar fashion in that their
only loss so far has come against a
ranked team. Tis weekend they
play No 41 DePaul (8-2) and No 75
Iowa (4-4). So this weekends per-
formance will be a good indicator of
the teams chances of success in Big
12 competition, which begins next
month.
To me personally rankings dont
mean anything. Any competition
that we are playing helps us get ready
for the Big 12, coach Amy Hall-Holt
said. We defnitely feel like we have
a good shot against both of these
teams, and itll be a big confdence
booster to win both matches.
Horvaths current singles (3-2)
and doubles (2-3) records are re-
spectable, but KU will need her to
take advantage of her proven talent
in order to establish that they are
ready for the challenge ahead. Tis
season she is playing at a diferent
position, and that presents its own
hurdles.
Last year I played at the No. 3
spot; this year I play at the No. 2,
which is much harder. Te compe-
tition is a lot harder, said Horvath,
who began this season with a 3-0
singles record, but has since cooled
of.
Of course I would be happier if I
had won all my matches, but think
I have given 100 percent, and I did
what I could, she said.
KU narrowly lost (4-3) to Iowa
last season, and three of the play-
ers who helped achieve that near-
victory are no longer on the team.
Te fact that KU has seven under-
classmen on its 10-person roster
underscores how critical it is that
not only Horvath, but also her fel-
low upperclassmen, doubles partner
Kuni Dorn and Yuliana Svistun,
dominate this weekend.
Hall-Holt, however, feels it is im-
portant for everyone to win regard-
less of class.
Its defnitely important for our
newcomers to come in and compete
hard and to win. But yeah, we look
upon our upperclassmen to lead us,
but we still look at the rest of us to
prevail and to play hard, Hall-Holt
said. Weve got to have not just
the three wins, but at least four of
the girls to win in order to win the
match.
Although she concedes that she
needs to play better if she wants to
beat better players, Horvath is fred
up for this weekend.
I dont feel any pressure. I like to
play against better teams. We get so
pumped up against ranked teams. I
feel like we are much more excited
as a whole team, she said.

KANSAS
(21-5, 10-1)
StArterS
Sherron Collins, 5-foot-11 junior guard
Collins career high in points is 26, which
hes reached twice this season. if he shoots
like he did in the last three minutes of the
iowa State game when he made three
three-point shots that mark could be in
danger Saturday.

Tyshawn Taylor, 6-foot-3 freshman

guard
Taylor is infected with two problems: turn-
overs and fouls. When one looks to be cured,
the other fares up. although hes limited his
turnovers lately, Taylor had nine fouls in the
last two games.

Brady Morningstar, 6-foot-3

sophomore guard
Morningstar had made six straight
three-pointers in the last two games before
missing his fnal two attempts against iowa
State. a new streak would be desirable for
the Jayhawks.

Marcus Morris, 6-foot-8 freshman

forward
Marcus has emerged the last two games
as the third wheel to Collins and aldrich. De-
fensive intensity. Smart shots. Physical play.
Marcus has done all of that.

Cole Aldrich, 6-foot-11

sophomore center
The Phantom
of the Phog
might not
be the best
nickname,
but aldrich
has been
one of the
best players
in the Big 12
lately. Hes averaging nearly 16
points and 13 rebounds over
the last four games.

SIxTh man
Tyrel Reed, 6-foot-3 sopho-
more guard
reed is playing more minutes
than ever because of his shooting
ability. But he went 1-for-5 from the
feld against iowa State. Thats unlikely
to continue against Nebraska.

Texas vs. Oklahoma 8:00 PM ESPN

Traditionally, this is a blowout.
Nebraska at allen Fieldhouse has
been as helpless as a slab of prime
rib on a Las Vegas bufet lately.
The Cornhuskers have only beaten
the Jayhawks once in Lawrence
since the Big 12 Conference was
established 12 years ago. Kansas
has won by an average of 43
points the last three years against
Nebraska at home. Of course, this
Cornhusker team is scrappier than
usual and the Jayhawks havent
beaten anyone by 43 points. But
the history is hard to ignore. a
Cornhusker bludgeoning might be
in store.
Senior guard Ade Dagunduro
Nebraska needed every bit
of Dagunduros performance to
sneak past Colorado Wednesday
night. The inglewood, Calif., native
poured in 18 points, six rebounds
and two blocks. in Big 12 play
hes averaging
14.3 points, the
same as Cole
aldrich, and
fve rebounds
per game. Hes
also hitting 53
percent of his
shots, a star-
tling statistic
considering
hes not a traditional post player.
Dagunduro will come in confdent
because he knows Kansas defense
doesnt have an answer for him.
in their frst meeting, Dagunduro
scored 24 points in 29 minutes.
Since dropping a 68-62 deci-
sion to Kansas on Jan. 28, Nebras-
ka is 4-1. Thats a little misleading
considering three of the victories
were against Texas Tech and a pair
over Colorado. But Nebraska did
notch a marquee victory with a
58-55 triumph over then-No. 16
Texas on Feb. 7. Two concerns
for the Cornhuskers entering this
game are that its on the road,
where they are far-less profcient
than in the Devaney Center. also,
Nebraska barely beat Colorado
46-41 on Wednesday. if theyre fat
again, the Cornhuskers wont have
much chance on Saturday.
Freshman forward Marcus
Morris
Nebraska is the smallest team
in the Big 12, which means it will
double team 6-foot-11 sophomore
center Cole aldrich nearly every
time he touches the ball. Problem
with that strategy is it leaves Mor-
ris available to
produce ofen-
sively. and Mor-
ris is playing the
best hes played
all season.
Hes averaging
more than 11
points and six
rebounds in the
last two games.
His most noticeable improvement,
however, has come on the defen-
sive end. Morris is no longer a li-
ability when he tries to guard. Not
even close, as evidenced by his
efort in holding iowa States Craig
Brackins to 7-for-21 shooting.
Will Cole Aldrich ditch the
mask?
Kansas coach Bill Self certainly
hopes so. Self thinks the mask is
limiting aldrichs peripheral vision
specifcally when a defender
comes from the side to double
down on him or a rebound takes
an awkward bounce of the glass.
Self has also said aldrichs broken
nose was healed well enough that
he no longer has to wear the pro-
tective mask. But at the same time,
Self will not force aldrich to play
without the mask. aldrich said he
liked the mask and it didnt bother
him. Thats bad news for Self. The
mask era might go on a little lon-
ger.
They are a team that is always
going to play hard and it is going to
be how we handle their post traps.
Tonight we didnt handle it well at
all as Cole had fve turnovers. We
are going to practice more on this
and get better at it.
Kansas coach Bill Self on Nebraska after the
Iowa State victory
They gave us everything we
wanted in Lincoln and we were
fortunate to win. Mondays game
against Oklahoma isnt a big game
unless we take care of business on
Saturday.
Kansas coach Bill Self
ALLEN FIELDHOUSE WILL ROCK IF...
Junior guard Mario Little and freshman guard Tyshawn Taylor end
their slumps headed into the Big Monday game at Oklahoma. Taylor
and Little, expected to be Kansas next scorers behind Collins and
aldrich, have combined for only nine points in the last two games.
Little went 0-for-5 from the feld against iowa State. The Jayhawks
have performed OK without Little and Taylor at their best, but will
need them against the Sooners.
PHOG ALLEN WILL ROLL OVER IN HIS
GRAVE IF...
Kansas allows Nebraska guard Cookie Miller to annoy it again. a
small scufe broke out when the teams played in Lincoln, Neb. after
Miller continued to fght with Mario Little for a loose ball. according
to Sherron Collins, Millers talk on the court was what really irked
the Jayhawks. if Millers mouth continues to run in allen Fieldhouse,
Kansas needs to ignore it. its not worth potential fouls or conficts.
Prediction:
KANSAS 75, NEBRASKA 49
NebrASKA
(16-8, 6-5)
StArterS
Cookie Miller, 5-foot-7 sophomore guard
By his own admission, Nebraska coach Doc Sadler has no
idea what his starting lineup will look like
on Saturday. On Wednesday, Miller came
of the bench for the frst time in 2009 with
mixed results. Sadler said he doesnt know
what hell do with the diminutive guard
against Kansas.

Steve Harley, 5-foot-11 senior guard

in the last three games, Nebraskas
former scoring leader averaged just three
points per game. Pair that with a poor de-
fensive game and Harley hasnt been much
of a factor for the Cornhuskers lately.

Sek Henry, 6-foot-2 junior guard

Henry is bipolar on the court. He may
score 11 points, as he did against Missouri
on Feb. 14, or score zero, as he did against
Colorado on Wednesday. You just never
know.

Ade Dagunduro, 6-foot-5 senior guard

Dagunduro was warming up before
he played Kansas, but that 24-point
performance has really secured his place
as Nebraskas go-to weapon. Since that
game hes averaging 14.6 points and 6.2
rebounds per game.

Ryan Anderson, 6-foot-4 junior guard

Chris Balham, Nebraskas regular starter
at forward, is out with chronic knee pain.
Thats opened the door for anderson in
the starting rotation. ryans got a lot of
qualities, Sadler said, but his greatest
quality is his spirit.

SIxTh man
Paul Velander, 6-foot-2 senior guard
Velander started for the second time in his
career on Wednesday. He
may keep the spot
on Saturday,
but after hit-
ting 1-of-3
three-point-
ers it looks
like hell
move back to
the bench.

Taylor Bern
Dagunduro
Can Nebraskas feisty defense
nullify Cole Aldrich again?
The Cornhuskers handled the
sophomore center better than
any other defense this season. The
short cornstalks pestered aldrich
every time he received an entry
pass and actually held him to zero
points and zero rebounds in the
frst half. its unlikely that theyll
be able to double that feat, but
coach Doc Sadler obviously has
a pretty good idea how to erase
aldrich. Now that the big man
has elevated his game to another
level, its even more important for
the Cornhuskers to keep him from
out-sizing them.
im happy with the point
production, but at the same time
i was a little soft out there getting
my shot blocked a little more than
