The Kansas University Endowment
Association reached a benchmark
this year when its total funds topped
$1 billion.
The mark represents a 10 per-
cent increase from 2005. Endowment
Association officials said the increase
was consistent with the rate of growth
in recent years.
This achievement really is the
sum of many, many years of work-
ing to bring funds to the University,
said Dale Seuferling, president of the
Endowment Association.
Seuferling said the number rep-
resented the value of all the perma-
nently restricted endowed funds for
the University. That figure includes
money given for purposes like schol-
arships and professorships.
What it provides is a permanent
source of support, Seuferling said.
Endowment money was used to
create 62 new scholarship funds in
2006, with a total increase of 7 per-
cent in money provided for student
support.
The Endowment Association
has provided $99 million to the
University in the past year.
Rosita Elizalde-McCoy, senior
vice president for communications
and marketing for the Endowment
Association, said the growth was
mainly due to the successful invest-
ment of the money the Endowment
Association already had; the total the
Endowment received in gifts slightly
decreased from 2005.
Elizalde-McCoy said the decrease
could be attributed to less money
coming in from gifts given upon
death. The simple explanation, she
said, was that fewer graduates died
during the past year. Contributions
and pledges from the living rose by
15.6 percent.
Our alums and friends are show-
ing they care about the University of
Kansas and thats the most important
thing, Elizalde-McCoy said.
Lynn Bretz, director of univer-
sity communications and govern-
ment relations, said KU adminis-
trators were pleased with the con-
tinued growth of the Endowment
Association.
The endowments function is to
assist KU and were just incredibly
grateful for the close partnership and
all the ways endowment helps stu-
dents and faculty, Bretz said.

trent tiemeyer of Lawrence, door manager of abe &Jakes, explains to a woman trying to enter the club Saturday night that she is already too intoxicated for himto admit her. You can usually tell what stage theyre at just by the way they walk,
Tiemeyer said. Like her, she had two people helping her walk. We catch it all the time.
the odd world of a nightclub bouncer
By dAvid linhArdt
Bouncer D.J. Gregory had
checked hundreds of IDs and
dragged a number of drunken
fighters out the door, but he had
never broken up a blowjob until
recently.
While making his rounds
one night at Its Brothers, 1105
Massachusetts St., a fellow bouncer
told Gregory that a woman was
giving a man a blowjob in one of
the booths.
No one else was near the couple
as Gregory approached. The wom-
ans head bobbed up and down on
the mans lap as he leaned back in
the booth.
Uh, you cant do that here,
Gregory told them.
The woman quickly stopped, sat
up and laughed with embarrass-
ment. The man grinned, adjusted
himself, stood up and zipped up his
pants right in front of Gregory. The
couple walked out.
Welcome to the life of a night-
club bouncer. Gregory and at least
a dozen other beefy KU students
are hired to keep the peace and
enforce rules in Lawrences favorite
bars. Each weekend, bouncers spot
local celebrities, meet hundreds of
people, break up fights and stop the
occasional oral sex act.
But once in a while the job of
the bouncer does require the rare
fistfight.
Trent Tiemeyer, door manager
at Abe & Jakes, hires the bouncers
at the popular nightclub at Sixth
and New Hampshire streets. He
said he looked for potential bounc-
ers who could calm down intoxi-
cated hotheads rather than beat
them senseless.
The best candidates answer his
interview questions quickly and
confidently, with authority and
friendliness, Tiemeyer said. Size
is a plus, but its not necessary.
No bar allows its bouncers to
carry weapons. If a fight gets too
intense, bouncers call the police.

If KU students cant make it to
polling sites on Nov. 7 they can
begin voting on Oct. 18.
In Kansas, absentee vot-
ing is called advanced voting. In
Douglas County, anyone can vote
in advance.
Keith Campbell, Douglas County
deputy of elections, said there were
two options for advanced voting.
A person can vote at the Douglas
County Courthouse beginning Oct.
18 and voters can also request a
ballot by completing an advanced
voting application. The ballot will
be sent by mail to a voters residence
and must be mailed back to the
election office.
The applications are available on
the secretary of states Web site,
www.kssos.org, and at each coun-
ty courthouses election Web site.
Ballots must be received by 7 p.m.
on election day.
I think both are wonderful tools
for students to use because it gives
you time to vote in advance if youre
busy Tuesday, Campbell said.
Marek Brzozowki, Prairie Village
freshman, said he would be voting
in Johnson County. He said that
he didnt know how to register in
another county and that it was easy
to vote in his hometown since the
drive wasnt that far.
Now that he knows its fairly
simple to register at another loca-
tion, he said he would most likely
do it.
Ian Staples, Student Legislative
Awareness Board director, said it
was incredibly easy in Kansas to
submit an advanced vote ballot.
Student lives are hectic and if
you can do it on your own time it
makes voting easy and efficient,
he said.
First-time voters in a county
must present a copy of a photo ID
or a copy of a utility bill, paycheck,
bank statement or any government
documentation that confirms the
voters name and address. If none
of these are available, students can
use their Kansas drivers license
number.

Dropping off or picking up
friends in the roundabout drive
circling the Chi Omega fountain
is no longer allowed.
Danny Kaiser, assistant direc-
tor of the Parking Department,
said the department brought the
issue up with the Public Safety
Office, which agreed the rule
was a good idea. Signs that had
no parking symbols and that
read No Standing were posted
Friday in the circle drive near the
Chi Omega sorority, 1345 West
Campus Road.
Many people were stopping
their cars to drop off or pick up
people, which was causing con-
gestion. The stopped cars forced
buses and other cars to stop, cre-
ating a line of traffic. He said the
area had heavy traffic and wasnt
designed for dropping off or pick-
ing up passengers.
Kaiser said it was one or two
people taking advantage of a con-
venience that was inconvenienc-
ing everyone else.
Sarah Kruse, Leavenworth
senior, said she was on a bus on
Monday that had to stop because
someone was being dropped off.
She said she didnt think people
would obey the signs because
people also parked in restricted
campus lots without permits.
Kruse said that it bothered her
when students stopped to drop
off their friends, but that she did
it as well.
Lindsey Powers, Minnetonka,
Minn., senior, waited by the Chi
Omega fountain Monday for a
ride. She said she didnt know
about the signs and would try
to find an alternative place to be

Heroic dog defends owner,
enters animal hall of fame
BENTON, Ky. A 15-pound
pooch that fended of an intruder
to defend its owner has earned a
spot in the Kentucky Veterinary
Medical Associations Animal Hall
of Fame.
Teddy Bear, a 4-year-old Pomer-
anian owned by Leslie Ferguson,
24, bit an armed robber in April
and created enough of a distrac-
tion that Ferguson could escape
to a neighbors house. The dog
was inducted into the associa-
tions Hall of Fame on Saturday.
My husband was out of town,
Ferguson said. He was on active
duty in the military, and I had a
guy break into my house with
a gun. He tried to force me into
another room. We ended up
wrestling for the gun, and Teddy
bit him and latched onto his hand.
I was able to get the gun from the
guy. He ended up getting the gun
back, but Teddy distracted him
long enough where I could get
out of the house.
Ferguson said Teddy Bear
never hesitated, even though he
had never been vicious toward
anyone.
I guess he realized that I was in
danger, and he just took action,
Ferguson said. He did great.
Teddy followed me and pretty
much didnt let me out of his sight
until the next day, she said. He
still keeps a close eye on me.
Amputee police ofcer
returns following therapy
MIDDLEBURG HEIGHTS, Ohio
Eighteen months after losing
his right leg to amputation, a po-
lice ofcer has achieved his goal
of returning to the beat.
Patrolman Ryan Nagy didnt
want a desk job despite the obvi-
ous difculties a man with one leg
would face as a street ofcer. He
spent a year and a half in therapy
and struggled to learn how to
use his new prosthetic leg made
specially for work.
Nagy, 32, was crushed be-
tween two vehicles during a
trafc stop in April 2005. He spent
seven weeks in the hospital being
treated for multiple fractures and
severe head injuries.
Nagy will spend his frst four
weeks beside another patrolman
to evaluate whether hes prepared
for a full comeback. His doctor
said he can go back to work with-
out restrictions, and hes learned
to drive using his left foot.
Pasted photographs of his
children, 4-year-old Zachary and
3-year-old Emma, adorn his pros-
thesis. Theyre the ones that kept
me working so hard to get back to
work, he said.
Australian drives in reverse
after transmission failure
SYDNEY, Australia A 22-year-
old man tried to drive 310 miles in
reverse on a remote highway after
his transmission failed, blocking
his forward gears, police said.
The man was stopped by
Western Australia state police on
Thursday afternoon after they
spotted his car roaring in reverse
down the highway at about 40
mph, according to a statement.
He was en route to the state
capital, Perth, when his transmis-
sion failed outside a restaurant in
the Outback town of Kalgoorlie,
about 300 miles away, according
to media reports.
Rather than call a mechanic,
the man opted to continue driv-
ing in reverse.
Police said they stopped the
man, whose identity was not im-
mediately released, outside the
nearby town of Coolgardie, about
12 miles from where his backward
journey began.
A breath test for alcohol
proved negative, but the man was
charged with reckless driving and
other trafc ofenses, police said.
North Dakota town hopes
to reclaim snow angel title
BISMARCK, N.D. The date is
set, and residents here are deter-
mined to reclaim a snow angel
title their city lost to a Michigan
town earlier this year.
The record for failing arms and
legs in snow has spurred some
friendly trash-talking between
organizers in Bismarck and the
defending champion town of
Houghton, Mich.
Its rightfully ours, said Mari-
lyn Snyder, curator of education
for the Historical Society of North
Dakota, who organized North
Dakotas 2002 record-setting
event. We set the record and
established the record. The record
is ours.
Bismarck created the Guinness
World Records category when
1,791 people waived their arms
and legs in the snow at the state
Capitol more than four years ago.
The city defended the title
twice from residents of Syracuse,
N.Y., who failed in 2004 and 2005
year to top it. But residents of
Houghton shattered the record
on Feb. 10 with 3,783 snow
angel makers.
New bird species discovered
in Colombian cloud forest
BOGOTA, Colombia A colorful
bird new to science has been dis-
covered in a remote Andean cloud
forest, spurring eforts to protect
the area, conservation groups have
announced.
The bright yellow and red-
crowned Yariguies brush-fnch was
named for the indigenous tribe
that once inhabited the mountain-
ous area where it was discovered
and which committed mass suicide
instead of submitting to Spanish
colonial rule.
The discovery, published in the
Bulletin of the British Ornitholo-
gists Club, comes at a crucial time
for conservationists. Thanks in part
to the discovery, the government
has decided to set aside 500 acres
of the pristine cloud forest where it
lives to create a national park.

The Student Housing Advisory Board
unanimously voted yesterday to approve an
increase in the 2007-2008 room and board
rates.
The largest increases will affect the 11
scholarship halls, where all except Miller
Scholarship Hall and Watkins Scholarship
Hall will increase rates by 8 percent.
The Department of Student Housing
operates as an auxiliary service, receiving no
state money. The department operates solely
on income generated from room and board
rates and will use the increase in revenue to
fund housing operations.
We project to the best of our abilities
what our operational costs will be, said
Diana Robertson, interim director of the
Department of Student Housing.
Robertson said two aspects led to the
increase in rates of housing at the University.
The first is the recent growth in utility servic-
es that account for much of the operational
costs. Robertson said that sewage rates were
up 9 percent from last year, for example.
Utility rates have increased significantly,
Robertson said. And we dont have any
reason why that would change in the future,
other than to go up.
The second aspect responsible for the new
housing rates is the increase in University
employee salaries. At the beginning of this
fiscal year, all full-time University employees
received a 4.5 percent increase in salary. The
minimum student wage was also increased at
the beginning of this fall from $6.50 to $7.00.
Robertson said this specifically had affected
the housing department because they have
so many student employees as resident assis-
tants and desk workers.
This means that salaries and benefits go
up, Robertson said. And we have to cover
that as an auxiliary service as well.
The housing departments budget also
includes reserves to cover operational and
maintenance expenses. Robertson said the
department kept roughly one month of
operational costs in reserve, about $1.5 mil-
lion. Another $1.2 million is set aside for
maintenance reserves, including hall renova-
tions and other large projects.
The room and board increases were also
based upon full-occupancy of the housing
department. There are empty rooms this
year from the reopening of Hashinger Hall,
but Robertson said all rooms would be avail-
able during the 2007-2008 school year.
Now that the Student Housing Advisory
Board has approved the 2007-2008 rates,
the Board of Regents will begin reviewing
the changes. The Regents will vote on the
proposal in December. If the board approves
the changes, the new rates will be on housing
contracts this spring.

Michael Applebaum spent hours
last week drilling holes and nailing
down boards for Lawrences largest
Sukkah.
Applebaum, Overland Park
senior, and some of his friends built
the temporary and ceremonial hut at
the Chabad Jewish Center, 1203. W.
19 St., in preparation for the Jewish
holiday of Sukkot.
This week, Lawrences larg-
est Sukkah and the University of
Kansas first Sukkah hut will be on
campus. The smaller hut on campus
is sponsored by the Chabad Jewish
Center and Hillel. The larger hut is
located at the Chabad Center.
Ive always celebrated with
my family by building a Sukkah at
home, but this is nice for those who
cant, Applebaum said.
KUs Sukkah hut was built on
Monday north of the Kansas Union
parking lot. At 5:30 p.m. today,
Chabad and Hillel will host Pizza
in the Hut. The event will feature
free kosher pizza, traditional Jewish
food and drink as well as Jewish
music.
Matt Lehrman, Jewish student life
coordinator and program director
for Hillel, said the huts location on
campus would provide opportuni-
ties for students to participate in the
holiday who might have missed out
on experiencing a Sukkah before
because they lived in residence halls
or fraternities and sororities.
Rabbi Zalman Tiechtel, direc-
tor of the Chabad Jewish Center,
said Sukkot is a week to celebrate
the Israelites 40-year journey with
Moses into the Sinai Desert before
entering Israel centuries ago.
The Sukkah hut is used to sym-
bolize the cloud covering that Jewish
people believe kept the Israelites safe
during their long journey. Todays
ceremonial hut is composed of four
walls with a twig ceiling. Tiechtel
said the cracks between the twigs
allow people to view the stars at
night.
For seven days, this hut should
be your home, Tiechtel said. You
take your meals in here. This is
a time to celebrate and party and
boost Jewish morale and confidence
on campus.
The Chabad Jewish Center will
also use a traveling Sukkah to spread
the holidays message and traditions.
Tiechtel said the center would use a
small, portable hut to serve food at
various locations around Lawrence
and the University, such as residence
halls, fraternities, sororities and
various locations on Massachusetts
Street.
If you cant come to the Sukkah,
the Sukkah will come to you,
Tiechtel said.
The Sukkah hut will be on campus
until Wednesday afternoon. Sukkot
continues until Oct. 15. Anyone is
welcome to visit the Sukkah hut and
attend the event.

Missouri teen enters school with rife,
no administrators or students injured
By MarCuS KaBEl
aSSoCiatEd PrESS
JOPLIN, Mo. A 13-year-
old student wearing a long, dark
green trenchcoat and carrying
a replica of an AK-47 fired one
shot in a middle school Monday
morning and told two adminis-
trators, please dont make me
do this, officials said.
No one was injured, and the
student was taken into custody.
The student, a seventh-
grader who was not identified,
pointed the gun at two students
as he entered Memorial Middle
School and was confronted by an
administrator, who tried to talk
him into putting down the Mac-
90 assault rifle, said Joplin police
spokesman Lt. Geoff Jones.
The administrator, Assistant
Superintendent Steve Doerr, told
the student, You dont have to
do this, there is another way,
Superintendent Jim Simpson
said.
The boy refused to put the gun
down and fired one shot into the
ceiling. Doerr then went into a
nearby office to call police.
The student kept trying to fire,
but the rifle jammed. Joplin Police
Officer Curt Farmer said the stu-
dent was aiming at the ceiling
when the gun jammed.
We dont believe he was trying
to fire at administrators or stu-
dents, Farmer said. The student
then left the building, followed by
another administrator, principal

has to be done, Tiemeyer said. If
theyre fighting, we want to grab them
and get them out the door.
Its not always that easy. On Sunday,
April 23 this year, a major fight shut
down Abe & Jakes at 1 a.m. The club
was overcrowded with partiers after
the Kansas Relays that weekend and
it took more than 20 law enforcement
agents and a cloud of pepper spray to
disperse the brawlers.
Though Abe & Jakes leads other
Lawrence nightclubs in number of
police calls, Tiemeyer said large-scale
fights like the melee in April were
rare.
Tiemeyer said he tried to maintain
a solid relationship with Lawrence
police and Douglas County deputies.
As long as Im courteous and
friendly with them, theyve always
been the same with me, Tiemeyer
said.
Jerry Neverve, co-owner of Red
Lyon Tavern, 944 Massachusetts St.,
said that shutting down a small distur-
bance could be easier than it looked
and that Red Lyon virtually never
required police help. Sometimes the
patrons themselves will help expel
unruly drinkers, he said.
Some bouncers have even gone as
far as to become martial arts experts.
Nick Hergott, Overland Park senior,
works at Mickeys Irish Pub in Lenexa.
Several of the bouncers he works with
have trained for martial arts competi-
tions and most of them have at least
some fighting experience.
Hergott said fighting for the sake
of violence wasnt allowed and that
his goal was to put someone in a sub-
mission hold if at all possible.
Sometimes it doesnt work that
way. Hergott remembered one brawl
at Mickeys where two men got into
a fight in the mens restroom. He
said the fight lasted longer than it
should have because no bouncers
were watching the restrooms at the
time.
Hergott and another bouncer
ripped open the door and found
blood spattered on the floor and
across the walls. One of the fighters
fell or was thrown into one of
the porcelain urinals. His head struck
the urinal and cracked it in half.
The urinal-cracker had a gash
along his scalp and had to be taken
to the hospital. The concussion and
blood loss were serious and Hergott
said the man nearly died that night in
the emergency room.
Hergott, at 5 feet 11 inches and 220
pounds, is about the size of KU run-
ning back Jon Cornish. His favorite
submission techniques are full-nelson
wrestling holds and various submis-
sion holds, which put the trouble-
maker in an excruciating position
that forces them to give up.
Despite the risks, bouncers gener-
ally dont get health insurance from
employers, Hergott said. Workers
compensation claims are possible if a
bouncer sustains an injury that keeps
him from working, but such occur-
rences are rare.
Being a bouncer might be the
quickest way to learn about all types
of people. Hergott enjoys the respon-
sibility the job entails and he plans to
keep doing it.
It can be an adrenaline rush, he
said. Its a cool job.
picked up.
Powers said it made sense to pro-
hibit people being dropped off or
picked up around the Chi Omega
fountain because it was a high-traffic
area. However, she said the new rule
would be a problem because people
would have to find another place to
drop off their friends.
Capt. Schuyler Bailey, KU Public
Safety Office spokesman, said that
the department hoped people would
comply, but that they could be tick-
eted if they didnt.
He said officers could either give a
ticket or ask the person to move on.
Jerry Little, Lawrence city pros-
ecutor, said the fine would be $30 if
the student were ticketed.
Bailey said disobeying the signs
was a violation of the Lawrence city
traffic ordinance, so violators might
have to go to municipal court.
Erin Peterson, Minnetonka, Minn.
senior, said she didnt know whether
the Public Safety Office would be
able to enforce the No Standing rule
because she thought people would do
it anyway.

Flu, medically known as inuenza, is a viral infection with symptoms that
include headache, muscle aches, chills, fever, cough, sore throat,
appetite loss and fatigue
The u is often transmitted by inhaling droplets in the air that are infected
with the virus, or by handling items that have been contaminated by an
infected person

Gregory, Alva, Okla. senior, also
said he enjoyed his job but admitted
that the pay wasnt great. He works
two or three nights per week at Its
Brothers and estimated Lawrence
bouncers took home about $150 a
week. Money depends on the number
of shifts covered and whether bar-
tenders give the bouncers a cut of the
tips that night.
What bouncers dont make in
money, though, they often make in
social capital. Celebrity sightings and
drunken flirting are some of the ben-
efits to meeting hundreds of people
each weekend.
Piechna said he had seen several
KU basketball players stop in for
drinks, including C.J. Giles.
When the Jayhawk football team
lost to Toledo a couple of weeks
ago, Piechna saw Chancellor Robert
Hemenway stroll into the bar to have
a beer and catch part of the game.
Another perk of the job for many
of the bouncers is the opportunity to
flirt with a lot of intoxicated women.
Theres not a lot of girlfriend
material out flirting with bouncers,
Piechna said. But there is a lot of
flirting going back and forth.
Piechna isnt counting on his
bouncer gig to hook him up with the
future Mrs. Piechna, he said. He sim-
ply enjoys the social atmosphere.
Theres no room to be shy in this
job, Piechna said. Youve got to go
out and make sure people are hav-
ing fun.

n
what the heck is an aggie?
n
my girlfriend just spewed on my
head.
n
It happened when I was inno-
cently eating in the dining hall. The
English girl next to me was recount-
ing her experience working on a
farm in Norway before coming to
Reading, and mentioned her run-
in with some Americans at Oslos
airport. I asked her about it further,
and was told that the Americans,
unaware that most Norwegians
speak fluent English and could
understand their jabs, made fun of
the countrys customs and called
the people weird. I wont say
where the Americans hailed from,
except that it rhymes with dexas.
I laughed it off but it still bothered
me the Ugly American stereotype
that were all trying to escape.
In the week since then, I have
become the source of information
on all things American in my hall.
There are only about 250 of us and
were a tight group; it didnt take
long to surmise who the inter-
national students were. Besides
me, there are girls from France,
Spain and Italy, and a guy from
Switzerland, all trying to figure out
the English Way of Doing Things
(which, truth be told, is very simi-
lar to the American Way of Doing
Things).
If you can name it, Ive been
asked about it. Kansas weather,
Kansas farming, American foreign
policy, what type of food we eat,
how our school system works, why
I took the SAT and not A Levels,
even why we call things certain
names (i.e. why a mall is called a
mall and not a shopping centre).
In turn, Ive found out a lot about
my new classmates and their experi-
ences. Besides my friend who had
farmed in Norway, another tutored
in South Africa. Others discuss
their interests in archaeology, family
law and computers. My friend from
France, timid about her English,
speaks better than most native
English speakers I know.
Do people with varied back-
grounds exist at the University of
Kansas? Sure, but the differences in
Reading are deeper. Instead of com-
ing from different parts of mainly
one or two states, people come from
different parts of an entire country.
Cities in the UK have very distinct
cultural and social identities (indus-
trial Sheffield compared with more
suburban Kent, for example), which
means that everyone has values that
cut much deeper than mere politics.
Add to this numerous students from
every continent, and the variety of
views, religions, interests and cus-
toms, and you have an exceptionally
diverse community.
At the end of the day though,
especially when were all packed
together in a dance hall and every-
one has had a few, I realize that
were all young people trying to
strike a balance between having fun
and getting educated. Theres some-
thing amazing about hearing people
from so many different countries all
singing along to Shakira at the same
time. While this could be construed
as a saturation of pop culture, I pre-
fer to see it as a light-hearted show-
ing of positive globalism.
As a political science major, I
often try and ask people (delicately)
about their political affiliations
to get a feel for the mood around
Reading. Opinion is as split here
on Tony Blair and David Cameron
(heads of the UKs two main parties,
Labour and Tory) just as much as it
is on George W. Bush and Hillary
Clinton in America. Its vastly enter-
taining to listen to English people
go on and on about why they like
or dislike a candidate, precisely
because it sounds so similar to what
an American might say.
While I try to keep everything
straight, I also try and keep my
American pride and do my best to
answer any questions objectively
and honestly. It helps me under-
stand my country better when Im
forced to answer for its actions and
defend it when necessary. It means
staying on my toes and being honest
with myself about my own beliefs.
Blind allegiance doesnt fly here;
evidence and argument do.
On a lighter note, it also means
that when I have a visitor in my
room and they ask about my college
back home (having seen my numer-
ous Jayhawk postcards on the wall),
I get to tell them all about it. The
first question they usually ask is,
What kind of bird is that?
Kelsey Hayes is a Lenexa
sophomore in journalism and
political science. She is currently
studying in Reading, UK.
In surveys and opinion polls of
students, a general lack of trust in
government leaders is routinely
revealed. This is an oft-cited rea-
son for rampant civic disengage-
ment among people in our age
group, and is a constant cause of
consternation for those seeking
office. Why, they wonder, cant
we just trust our Congressional
leaders to do whats best and
whats right?
Given the state of Washingtons
ethical fabric, should anyone
marvel at our wariness? We
certainly had reason enough to
doubt the collective backbone
of a group that devotes more
attention to securing funding for
bridges to nowhere and other
earmarks than it does to actu-
al governing. Congress already
seemed to care more about per-
petuating their disappearing
sphere of influence than in solv-
ing our nations problems. But as
if that werent enough, they come
at us now with a wave of ethical
and moral failings that indicate a
deep and enduring corruption.
The recent imbroglio involv-
ing Florida representative Mark
Foleys lecherous and wholly
horrific behavior is just one more
step in a long line of scandals
that even predated super-lobby-
ist Jack Abramoff and his cro-
nies. As if it werent bad enough
to have a respected Congressman
making advances at teenage male
pages, we now discover that the
Republican leadership ignored
and even concealed the prob-
lem for years. How could any-
one trust a group that would
abet such behavior, and that now
demeans a very serious prob-
lem as being nothing more than
naughty emails?
Evidently, Congress is doing
everything it can to lower its
already plummeting approval
ratings even more. At what point
does Congress cease being a
comical sideshow and become a
legitimate threat to our nation?
We are facing corruption, incom-
petence, and deception on a scale
unseen since Watergate. If the
alleged party of moral values is
actually assisting in covering up
this reprehensible behavior, then
who is left to trust? The defens-
es offered by House Speaker J.
Dennis Hastert are paltry and
feeble, and merely remind us that
those same moral values may
have vacated our nations capital
for good.
A massive correction is long
overdue. These leaders are known
as public servants for a reason:
They are elected to do what is
best for the American people, not
what is best for special interests
and the entrenchment of power.
We as young voters are willing to
vote for you, and might even be
capable of trusting you. But we
need a legitimate reason to do
both, and we need it quickly.
McKay Stangler for the edito-
rial board.

SAN FRANCISCO Internet
search leader Google is snapping
up YouTube for $1.65 billion,
brushing aside copyright concerns
to seize a starring role in the online
video revolution.
The all-stock deal announced
Monday unites one of the Internets
marquee companies with one of its
rapidly rising stars. It came just a
few hours after YouTube unveiled
three separate agreements with
media companies to counter the
threat of copyright-infringement
lawsuits.
The price makes YouTube Inc.,
a still-unprofitable startup, by far
the most expensive purchase made
by Google during its eight-year
history. Last year, Google spent
$130.5 million buying a total of 15
small companies.
Although some cynics have
questioned YouTubes staying
power, Google is betting that the
popular video-sharing site will
provide it an increasingly lucrative
marketing hub as more viewers
and advertisers migrate from tele-
vision to the Internet.
YouTube will continue to retain
its brand, its new headquarters
in San Bruno and all 67 employ-
ees, including co-founders Chad
Hurley and Steve Chen. Meanwhile,
Google will continue to run a less
popular video service on its own
site.
The deal is expected to close
before the end of the year.
Im confident that with this
partnership well have the flexibil-
ity and resources needed to pursue
our goal of building the next-gen-
eration platform for serving media
worldwide, said Hurley, YouTubes
29-year-old CEO.
While most videos posted on
YouTube are homemade, the site
also features volumes of copyright-
ed material a problem that has
caused some critics to predict the
startup eventually would be sued
into oblivion.
YouTubes worldwide audi-
ence was 72.1 million by August,
up from 2.8 million a year ear-
lier, according to comScore Media
Metrix.

AssoCIATED PrEss
UNITED NATIONS The
world lined up against North Korea
on Monday for staging a nuclear
test denounced even by key allies.
President Bush called it a threat
to international peace and secu-
rity, and the U.N. Security Council
began weighing severe sanctions
to punish the impoverished com-
munist nation.
There was no talk of military
action. But the Security Council
quickly condemned North Koreas
decision to flout a U.N. appeal to
cancel the test after the reclusive
regime announced it had set off an
underground atomic explosion.
Russia was the only country to
say it had no doubts over the
North Korean claim, but the U.S.
and other experts said the explo-
sion was smaller than expected and
they had yet to confirm it was
nuclear.
But the reaction of world gov-
ernments reflected little doubt that
they were treating the announce-
ment as fact.
The 15-nation council urged
Pyongyang to return to stalled
talks, refrain from further tests and
keep its pledge to scrap its clandes-
tine weapons program.
Bush said the North Korean
action constitutes a threat to inter-
national peace and security and
requires an immediate response
from the Security Council, though
he stressed the U.S. remained com-
mitted to diplomacy.
U.S. Ambassador John Bolton
and key allies Britain and France
also said they would seek tough
new U.N. sanctions against the
North. The U.S. proposal is aimed
at curbing its nuclear and ballis-
tic missile programs and would
prohibit all trade in military and
luxury goods and prevent abuse of
the international financial system.
Japans U.N. Ambassador Kenzo
Oshima, the current council presi-
dent, said all council members
emphasized that the response of
the council should be strong, swift
and very, very clear in its message
and its action.
But just how long it will take
members to agree on a resolution
remains to be seen.
Council experts started dis-
cussing the proposals in meet-
ings Monday afternoon, but it was
unclear whether China and Russia
_ the Norths closest allies _ would
support some of the tough mea-
sures. They include international
inspection of all cargo to and from
North Korea to limit the prolif-
eration of nuclear, chemical and
biological weapons, blanket bans
on luxury and military goods, and
any material that could be used in
the production of weapons of mass
destruction.
Before the experts meeting, the
ambassadors from the five veto-
wielding council nations _ the U.S.,
Britain, France, Russia and China _
met with Oshima.
Bolton told reporters afterward
that everybody agreed within 30
minutes that the council should
condemn the action and respond
quickly, saying thats remarkable
to have such a unanimous deci-
sion.
But he wouldnt speculate when
the council might act, noting that
Japan and others already had other
suggestions for the text.
The fact is that in our half-hour,
full council meeting this morn-
ing, there was no one who even
came close to defending this test by
North Korea, Bolton said.
The United States, France,
Britain and Japan want the resolu-
tion under Chapter 7 of the U.N.
Charter, which deals with threats
to international peace, breaches of
the peace and acts of aggression.
It allows the council to authorize
measures ranging from breaking
diplomatic ties and imposing eco-
nomic and military sanctions to
taking military action to restore
peace.
With U.S. forces strapped by the
twin wars in Iraq and Afghanistan,
the Bush administration repeat-
edly has said it has no plans to
invade North Korea and discussion
of military action was absent on
Monday.
Neither Russia nor China would
say whether they support a resolu-
tion that could pave the way for
sanctions.
I think we have to react firmly,
Chinas U.N. Ambassador Wang
Guangya said. But also I believe
that on the other hand the door to
solve this issue from a diplomatic
point of view is still open.
Russias U.N. Ambassador Vitaly
Churkin said the North Koreans
will be facing a very serious atti-
tude on the part of the Security
Council and the entire interna-
tional community, but he said the
council needs to discuss whether
that will include sanctions.
North Korea remained defi-
ant. Pak Gil Yon, the Norths U.N.
ambassador, said the Security
Council should congratulate the
Democratic Peoples Republic of
Korea, known as the DPRK, instead
of passing useless resolutions or
statements.
The nuclear test in the DPRK
will greatly contribute in increasing
the world deterrence of the DPRK
and will contribute to the mainte-
nance and guarantee of peace and
security in the peninsula and the
region, he said.
The United States and its allies,
and many of North Koreas neigh-
bors, took the exact opposite view.
This shows why we need actions
and not just words about North
Korea, Bolton told The Associated
Press.
If the test is confirmed, North
Korea would join the current mem-
bers of the nuclear club _ the United
States, Russia, Britain, France,
India, Pakistan and China. Israel is
widely believed to have the bomb
but has not publicly declared.
A nuclear armed North Korea
would dramatically alter the strate-
gic balance of power in the Pacific
region and would undermine
already fraying global anti-prolif-
eration efforts.
The development and posses-
sion of nuclear weapons by North
Korea will in a major way trans-
form the security environment in
North Asia and we will be enter-
ing a new, dangerous nuclear age,
Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo
Abe said at a news conference in
Seoul after a summit with South
Korean President Roh Moo-hyun.
Abe, facing his first major for-
eign policy test since his recent
election, called for a calm yet
stern response. Japanese Foreign
Minister Taro Aso warned such a
test would severely endanger not
only Northeast Asia but also the
world stability.
Bolton told the Security Council
that Washington would consider an
attack on Japan or South Korea an
attack on the United States, accord-
ing to U.N. diplomats who spoke
on condition of anonymity because
the remarks were made at a closed
council meeting.
The United States has defense
agreements with the two Asian
allies and thousands of U.S. troops
are stationed in South Korea and
Japan.
Russian President Vladimir
Putin told his Cabinet that Moscow
certainly condemns the test con-
ducted by North Korea.
Impoverished and isolated,
North Korea has built up its mili-
tary and nuclear programs while
relying on foreign aid to feed its 23
million people since its state-run
farming system collapsed in the
1990s following decades of mis-
management and the loss of Soviet
subsidies.
It marks a historic event as
it greatly encouraged and pleased
the ... people that have wished to
have powerful self-reliant defense
capability, KCNA said. It will con-
tribute to defending the peace and
stability on the Korean Peninsula
and in the area around it.
The North is believed to have
enough radioactive material for
a half-dozen bombs. It insists its
nuclear program is necessary to
deter a U.S. invasion.

Nick Collison will be back in the
spotlight on Sunday for the first time
in three years.
Collison, former All-American,
will return to Allen Fieldhouse for
Sundays exhibition between his
Seattle Supersonics and the Chicago
Bulls. Collison played forward at
Kansas from 2000 to 2003.
Im excited about coming back to
play, Collison said. Itll be good to
be back in Lawrence and play in the
fieldhouse.
Collison has been out of the spot-
light for nearly his entire NBA career
because of various injuries. He missed
his entire rookie season after having
surgery on both his right and left
shoulders. Collison also missed time
last season because of a foot injury.
Because hes seen limited minutes
in his two seasons of play, Collison
said he realized the importance of the
upcoming season.
Its the last year of my deal,
Collison said. Itll probably affect the
rest of my career.
A coaching change before the
beginning of last season should help
Collison earn that new contract. In
the new offensive system under for-
mer Kansas assistant coach Bob Hill,
the offense focuses on the post play-
ers.
The change seemed to have helped
Collison; his average points and
rebounds per game increased from
his rookie season in 2004.
Last season for the Supersonics,
Collison averaged seven points and
five rebounds per game. He played an
average of 21 minutes per night and
made four starts.
When Collison left Lawrence in
2003, the Kansas basketball program
was in a state of turmoil. Just days after
a loss in the National Championship
game, former coach Roy Williams
bolted home to North Carolina, leav-
ing the Kansas job open.
With Williams departure came
the loss of numerous assistant coach-
es, administrators and support staff
who Collison had worked with in his
four seasons as a Jayhawk.
Despite the new faces, Collison
said Lawrence still felt like home.
I definitely feel welcome at KU,
Collison said. Everyone is friendly
enough to get along.
Even though he wont be in town
long the Supersonics wont arrive
until 9 p.m. on Saturday Collison
said he appreciated the opportunity
to play at the fieldhouse one more
time.
KU fans are great, Collison said.
They support you forever. It would
mean a lot for us to have great fan
support like that.

Former Kansas forward returns for exhibition game
By RyAn SchnEidER
With any quarterback controver-
sy all but snuffed out, only one ques-
tion remains for the Kansas football
team: How long until Kerry Meier
returns?
A short answer for that is tough
to get.
Kansas coach Mark Mangino said
he had planned for Meier to return
in time for the Texas A&M game
on Saturday. But after practice last
Wednesday, that plan changed.
Mangino said Meier had not pro-
gressed as much as he had liked since
suffering an undisclosed injury to his
throwing arm nearly a month ago
against Toledo. It was then decided
that senior Adam Barmann would
start his third consecutive game.
As for Meiers return, Mangino
said he was still unsure about the
specific date.
The matter of the fact is that hes
at least a week away, he said.
The offense sure looked like it
could use a boost on Saturday. A
week after racking up nearly 600
yards of offense against Nebraska,
the offense had only 288 yards
against A&M. Kansas put up its sec-
ond-lowest point total of the season
and registered just one first down in
the fourth quarter.
Despite the midweek switch at
quarterback, Mangino said Barmann
wasnt responsible for the loss.
I dont think our offense was
very in sync at all, Mangino said. I
cant blame him for that.
After having two of the best games
of his career in his first two starts this
season, Barmann completed bare-
ly 40 percent of his passes against
A&M. He also took two sacks.
Barmann refused to blame his
struggles on taking fewer snaps ear-
lier in the week at practice.
No, not at all, he said Saturday.
Thats not an excuse.

Kansas game against Baylor on
Oct. 21 will not be televised. It will

Injury keeps Meier on bench

AdamBarmann looks for passing options in the Jayhawks game against the Aggies on Saturday.
Barmann has started three consecutive games in place of injured quarterback Kerry Meier.
By MARK dEnt
Similarities between Lawrence
and Chicago are hard to come by,
kind of like a quiet ride on the
El Train. Michigan Avenue has just
a few more places to shop than
Massachusetts Street and it would
be hard to find someone who would
confuse Fraser Hall with the Sears
Tower.
But one even bigger differ-
ence sticks out in the mind of Kirk
Hinrich.
Kansas fans are as good as they
come, said the former Jayhawk bas-
ketball player. You never ever got
booed, no matter what happened.
In Chicago, theyre a little rougher
on us.
Hinrich will get one more taste
of his favorite fans Sunday, when
his Chicago Bulls play the Seattle
Supersonics at Allen Fieldhouse.
It has been three years since
Hinrich traded the red and blue
for the red and black. The Sioux
City, Iowa native was drafted by the
Bulls as the seventh pick overall in
the 2003 NBA draft and has since
become the franchises most rec-
ognizable player. This season he
averaged 15.9 points per game, 6.3
assists per game and 3.6 rebounds
per game and led Chicago into the
playoffs for the second consecutive
year.
As impressive as Hinrich has
been in the regular season, he has
been even better when the games
really count. He ratcheted his scor-
ing average up to 20.5 points per
game and 7.7 assists per game dur-
ing this years postseason. The Bulls
also gave the NBA champion Miami
Heat all it could handle in a playoff
series that ended 4-2 in the Heats
favor.
We came a long way last season
and did a great job of competing
against them, Hinrich said. This
season we have the ability to go
a lot farther than the first round,
but it will depend on our mental
toughness and coming to play every
night.
Hinrichs playoff exploits caught
the eye of USA basketball coach
Mike Krzyzewksi, who made him a
late addition to the 12-man roster for
the 2006 World Championships this
summer. The competition in Japan
gave Hinrich a chance to make an
even bigger name for himself and to
pick up pointers from some of the
NBAs best.
The talent level was unbeliev-
able, he said. I learned a lot and am
a better player from the experience.

Yankees to fre
manager after loss
NEW YORK
Yankees manager Joe
Torre will be fired and replaced by
Lou Piniella following another early
exit from the playoffs, the New York
Daily News reported Sunday.
According to sources the Daily
News did not identify, Torre
is expected to be fired unless he
resigns first or team officials can
talk owner George Steinbrenner out
of making the move.
On Saturday, the Yankees were
eliminated from the first round of
the AL playoffs, losing to Detroit
8-3 in Game 4. It was the second
straight year New York lost in the
opening round.
The Yankees have won the World
Series four times under Torre, most
recently in 2000. They had a record
$200 million payroll this year and
matched the New York Mets for the
best record in the regular season.
Wizards hopeful
for MLS playof bid
KANSAS CITY, Mo.
The Wizards defeated Chivas USA
2-1 Saturday night at Arrowhead
Stadium to give their playoff hopes
a boost.
The Wizards improved to 10-13-
8 with 38 points and hold a three-
point lead over the Red Bulls for
the fourth and final playoff berth
in the Eastern Conference pending
the outcome of New Yorks game
against the Colorado Rapids later
Saturday night.
If the Red Bulls lose or tie, the
Wizards would only need to draw
New York next Saturday to make the
Major League Soccer playoffs.
Chivas fell to 10-9-12 with 42
points.
The Wizards took an early lead
on a goal by Dave van den Bergh in
the 50th minute.
The two teams then traded pen-
alty-kick goals. Chivas drew even on
a penalty kick in the 71st minute by
Claudio Suarez.
The Wizards regained the lead
and got the game-winner three min-
utes later on a penalty kick by Jose
Burciaga Jr. after Josh Wolff was
tripped down in the Chivas penalty
box.

Kansas football broke even after
six games. Not good, but not bad
either. That is half way to a bowl
game, after all. But something is
making the situation much worse for
Kansas fans. The Missouri Tigers are
still undefeated.
Six victories, no losses. I really
hate to say it, but Im impressed with
Missouri, and jealous. If a few things
had gone differently, Kansas could
be in the same situation as its bor-
der rival: challenging for the Big 12
North title, on its way to a prestigious
bowl game, voted into the top 25 and
on the shoulders of a great young
quarterback.
Maybe all of that will come next
year for Kansas, if it ever finds a way
to win close games. But this year
belongs to Missouri.
I didnt want to admit it until I saw
Missouri beat Texas Tech on Saturday
in Lubbock, Texas. The Tigers came
ready to play, going up 24-0 with
back-to-back interception returns for
touchdowns. But Tech scored three
straight times to come within three
by the third quarter, stealing all the
momentum and putting immense
pressure on Missouri.
Under the pressure, Missouri
scored two touchdowns, shutting
down Techs offense and winning 37-
21. The Tigers were resilient and got
the job done during the fourth quar-
ter, otherwise known as crunch time.
Kansas on the other hand couldnt
score a touchdown in the fourth
quarter or pick up one yard on third
down to put Texas A&M away, and
the game wasnt even on the road.
Missouri is clearly the better team.
For the Jayhawks, the next five
games Oklahoma State, Baylor,
Colorado, Iowa State, and Kansas
State will be especially important.
Each is winnable. The Jayhawks
should earn bowl eligibility by the
end of this stretch. But if they dont,
they face a must-win game against
the Tigers. That probably means they
can forget about a bowl game.
Could Kansas defeat Missouri on
the road if it cant win at least three of
those five games? Not likely. Would
Missouri lose a game against its arch
rival, who needs a victory for bowl
eligibility? Missouri sophomore quar-
terback Chase Daniel probably wont
let that happen.
Daniel is good but he isnt the next
Brad Smith; hes already better. This
season he has completed 64 percent
of his passes, thrown for 1,273 yards
and 13 touchdowns, and has a passer
rating of 143.7. Hes smart, with
only four interceptions, the same
as Kansas quarterback Kerry Meier
against Toledo. He has also only been
sacked five times. Thats nearly flaw-
less play.
Mangino has had Missouris num-
ber the past three seasons, and his
teams tend to improve toward the
end of the year. The game is seem-
ingly within reach. But no matter
how brilliant Manginos game plan or
how much better Kansas becomes,
winning in Columbia, Mo. will be
tough to do this year.

As the softball team finished
its fall season, coach Tracy Bunge
knows the team has a lot to work
on before the spring season begins.
Kansas finished the Big Red Fall
Classic in Lincoln 2-2 and its fall
schedule 9-3.
I was
pleased with
our over-
all perfor-
mance pitch-
i n g - wi s e ,
Bunge said.
Offensively, I
really thought
we were pretty
inconsistent
but I attribute
a lot of that to
our youth and inexperience and I
think that we are going to get a lot
better from now and next spring
offensively.
On the first day of competition,
Kansas faced Creighton twice, split-
ting with them.
In the first match-up, the Blue
Jays topped the Jayhawks 2-0. Senior
pitcher Kassie Humphreys gave up
five hits and had nine strikeouts.
Kansas had five hits during the
game.
In the second game, Kansas bat-
tled Creighton to 12 innings, finally
defeating them 4-3. Sophomore
middle infielder Stevie Crisosto
scored on an attempt to steal home
and the Creighton catcher was called
for obstruction at the plate, giv-
ing the Jayhawks the winning run.
Kansas held the Creighton effort in
the bottom of the inning.
On Sunday, the Jayhawks faced
Colorado State and defeated the
Rams 5-1. Kansas had nine hits
against CSU. Sophomore outfielder
Dougie McCaulley went 3-4 at the
plate against
CSU.
Kansas fin-
ished the tour-
nament against
host Nebraska.
The Huskers beat
the Jayhawks
3-0. Freshman
i n f i e l d e r
Amanda Jobe
accounted for
Kansas only two
hits, going 2-2.
Kansas defense
was a little inconsistent during the
game, tallying four errors.
If we would have been totally
satisfied as a coaching staff with
how we played, this weekend in
particular, I think we all would have
been surprised, Bunge said. We
are pleased with the effort, we are
pleased with a lot of things with the
team, but we know that we have a lot
of work to do during the offseason.
The team will begin off-season
training on Monday.

Tim Allen, girlfriend marry
in private Colorado wedding
LOS ANGELES More power
to Tim Allen. The comic actor got
married this weekend to his girl-
friend of fve years, actress Jane
Hadjuk, in an intimate Colorado
ceremony.
The couples family were the
only guests at the private afair,
held Saturday in Grand Lake,
Colo., Allens publicist, Marleah
Leslie, said Monday. Allens 17-
year-old daughter, Katherine
Dick, was among the attendees.
It is the frst marriage for Had-
juk, 39, and the second for Allen,
53. He was previously married to
Laura Deibel.
Hadjuk and Allen appeared
together earlier this year in the
childrens action flm Zoom.
Allen, whose early comedy
routines often centered on men
and power tools, hit stardom
with his long-running TV series
Home Improvement. Hell be

Richie buried the hatchet?
Maybe, maybe not. But the
Simple Life stars, who have
been feuding since last year,
appeared together in a video
posted on the entertainment

In the video, taped Sunday
night, the two arrived together
at Dan Tanas Steakhouse in
Los Angeles. After dinner, they
text-messaged while waiting for
their car on a bench in front of
the restaurant. At one point, they
looked at each other and smiled
when an unseen observer said,
I always knew youd be friends
again, Paris.
Hilton and Richie, both 25,
recently starred in the E! reality-
style series The Simple Life _ til

Two Big 12 columnists analyze Saturdays games
Iowa State must improve its offense to compete in league
Kansas State defeated Okla-
homa State 31-27 on Saturday.
It was the rst time freshman
quarterback Josh Freeman re-
placed Dylan Meier as the start-
ing quarterback. Austin Meek
wrote this column for Mondays
Kansas State Collegian.
Call it prophecy or just a well-
executed game plan, but Ron Prince
saw this one coming.
At his Tuesday media conference,
Prince stated his expectations
for true freshman quarter-
back Josh Freeman.
Just play well if you can,
Prince said. Then, in the
fourth quarter, be prepared
to be a hero.
In K-States 31-27 victory
against Oklahoma State, thats exactly
what Freeman did. He managed the
game for three quarters, and then he
saved K-States collective bacon in the
fourth.
Against Baylor, watching Freeman
throw passes was like watching cheer-
leaders chuck T-shirts into a crowd.
But even then, Prince knew Freeman
was close.
Through three quarters against,
Freeman wasnt spectacular. He looked
a bit indecisive, unsettled.
Hmm, I thought. This Freeman
kid sure has a pretty hand-off. But
couldnt Dylan Meier do that?
But man, that fourth quarter was
something special.
He was like a little field general
out there, offensive lineman Brock
Unruh said.
To clarify, Napoleon was a little
field general. At 6-foot-6, 240 pounds,
theres nothing little about Freeman.
Freeman has the tools to excel. But
the intangibles the ability to step
up when the game was on the line -
nobody could predict that.
Nobody except Prince.
Was Saturdays game vindication for
Prince? He would never say
so, of course.
But lets be honest: Prince
needed this. Matt Boss sud-
den departure raised a lot
of questions, as did Princes
handling of the quarterback
situation with the media
after the Baylor loss. The offensive line
seemed a more random selection than
a Gallup poll.
Thats why Prince needed the
Freeman gamble to pay off.
Granted, this was just one game
against a team with a suspect defense.
Nebraska could turn Freeman back
into a confused, interception-chucking
freshman.
But on this one perfect, sun-
drenched Saturday afternoon, every-
body at Snyder Family Stadium saw
what Prince already knew.
Freeman is ready to be a hero.
Iowa State lost to Nebraska 28-
14 on Saturday in Ames, Iowa.
Grant Wall wrote this article for
Mondays Iowa State Daily.
Dan McCarney saw two different
things Saturday night.
He saw the good.
There were times where I thought we
played the best football we have all year,
McCarney said after the Cyclones 28-14
loss to then-No. 22 Nebraska.
And then he saw the bad.
There were times where I thought we
left a lot to be desired, McCarney said.
But mostly what he saw was bad.
The loss drops Iowa State to 0-2 in the
Big 12, effectively eliminating the team
from the conference race with its next
game coming at No. 23 Oklahoma.
This shows us where we are, Iowa
State quarterback Bret Meyer said. Were
halfway done with the season and we know
where we are right now.
As an offense we have
to regroup.
U n d e f e a t e d
Missouris Iowa
States fellow Big 12
North opponent only
big game remaining is against Oklahoma,
while Nebraska faces Texas. All indi-
cations point to the Nov. 4 Nebraska-
Missouri game deciding the champion of
the North.
Nebraska dominated Iowa State in
nearly all phases of the game:
Nebraska quarterback Zac Taylor
went 17-of-21 for 131 yards and a score.
He was 5-of-5 in the second half, as the
Huskers rushed on 24 of their 29 offensive
plays.
The Iowa State defense entered the
game letting opponents complete nearly
75 percent of their passes. Taylor passed
at an 81 percent clip, as the Cyclones
struggled to get a consistent pass rush,
giving the quarterback plenty of time to
make his throws.
Two backs for the Huskers rushed for
more than 100 yards as Nebraska gained
251 yards rushing as a team. Cody Glenn
(148 yards) and Brandon Jackson (116
yards) had their way with the ISU
defense. The output was career highs
for both players.
Theyre great backs, McCarney
said. Theyre fast and physical and
keep coming at you.
Iowa State, on the other hand,
couldnt get things going on the
ground. Meyer was the teams leading
rusher with 26 yards and Stevie Hicks
gained just 21 yards on six carries.
This was the third straight game in
which the Cyclones failed to rush for
100 yards.
Part of it was getting behind and
kind of had to be one dimensional
but obviously you want to establish
the run a little more than that, Meyer
said.
Iowa State had seven offensive
possessions in the second half, and
could only manage one score out of it.
The Cyclones were forced to punt
twice, had a pass intercepted and
turned the ball over on downs three
times.
In that second half, how many
chances we had, the defense played
their butts off and we didnt do our
part, Meyer said. Its frustrating right
now.
After getting the ball at the Nebraska
14 thanks to a fumble, Iowa State was
unable to score, attempting a fake field
goal that was stopped well short of the
first down marker.
We have to put up a lot more
points than we are now, Meyer said.

While Aqib Talib, Anthony
Webb, Blake Bueltel and the rest
of the Kansas
football sec-
ondary are
still trying to
make a name
for them-
selves, for-
mer Jayhawk
cor nerback
C h a r l e s
Gordon is
cont i nui ng
his football
career; except
now Gordon
is a defensive
back on the practice squad for the
Minnesota Vikings.
While Gordon would have been
one of the teams senior leaders this
year if he had stayed, he doesnt
have any doubts about his choice.
I dont regret my decision, he
said. Since
I redshirt-
ed, I had
a l r e a d y
been there
four years,
so it would
have been
like hav-
ing anoth-
er year
of high
school.
Gordon
was hav-
ing an out-
standing stint at training camp for
Minnesota until one wrong turn on
the football field injured his knee
and also hurt his chances to make a
significant impact this year for the
Vikings.
My goal was to come in, work
hard and show the coaches what
I got, and I thought I was play-
ing pretty good until the injury.
Gordon said.
The injury kept him from play-
ing in the teams final preseason
games, so he was unable to earn a
spot on the 52-man active roster.
While Gordon was a two-time
First Team All-Big 12 football play-
er at Kansas, he is quickly learning
that things are a little different in
the NFL.
The speed of the game is a
lot faster than college, he said.
Also there are a lot more defensive
schemes and they are a lot more
complicated, too.
Although Gordon has been with
the Vikings less than half a season,
he is already feeling like he has
made progress.
I am very comfortable right now
with were I am at, and each day on
the field I get better and better. he
said.
Jayhawk fans may continue to
dream about the impact he would
have made for the crimson and
blue this season, but Gordon said
he didnt have time for second-
guessing.
I dont think about them, he
said. If I continue to do my best, I
know I will make it.

I am very comfortable right

Charles Gordon
Former KU football player
KANSAN FILE PHOTO
Former KU football player Charles Gordon makes the best of his frst year in the NFL, despite a
knee injury that kept himof the Vikings active roster. Gordon said he was happy with his decision to
leave the University early and said his game was improving every day.
LeBron James, Dwyane Wade and
other household names dotted the
roster, but Hinrich still stood out.
He finished second on the team in
three-point shots made and three-
point shooting percentage, and
fourth in assists,
None of Hinrichs achievements
have been a surprise to his father
and high school basketball coach
Jim Hinrich. Jim said Kirk had pro-
gressed every year to become the
player he was and that he wanted to
win more than anything.
Every level hes played at hes
done a good job of making those
around him better, Jim said. Hes
the consummate team player.
Fans at Kansas saw just how much
Kirk could help a team during his
time as a Jayhawk from 1999 to 2003.
Kirk came in as the least-heralded
of a recruiting class that included
Nick Collison and Drew Gooden,
but he ended up starting 13 games
his freshman year and leading the
team in assists.
Shaggy hair soon became syn-
onymous with success as the mop-
topped guard helped lead the team
to a Final Four appearance and 16-
0 record in the Big 12 during the
2001-2002 season. Kirk could have
jumped to the NBA after that season
but instead returned for his senior
year to carry the Jayhawks to a spot
in the national championship game.
Both he and Nick did a good job
of leading inexperienced players that
year, Jim said. Their leadership led
them to the Final Four.
The feeling will be different this
time when Kirk steps onto James
Naismith Court for the first time
since that magical run. The hair is
still the same. So is his signature
teardrop runner.
Kirk will be taking the floor with
players like Ben Gordon and Andres
Nocioni instead of former Jayhawks
like Jeff Boschee and Nick Bradford.
Perhaps the strangest difference will
be seeing his close friend Collison as
an opponent rather than a teammate
in the venue they called home for
four years.
Even with the changes, Kirk
said he couldnt wait to play in the
Fieldhouse.
It will be a little strange not wear-
ing the uniform, Kirk said. But
Allen Fieldhouse is the best arena
Ive ever played in. Im just excited to
play there one last time.

Jayhawks fnish second
despite tough conditions
The Kansas mens golf team
fnished in second place at the
Windon Memorial Classic this
weekend. The Jayhawks strong
showing moved the team to 28th
place in the Golfweek national
rankings.
despite tough weather condi-
tions and a second round that car-
ried over from sunday to Monday
because the sun set, the Jayhawks
fnished with an overall score of
895, 14 behind the tournament
champion sMU.
senior Gary Woodland and
sophomore Zach Pederson led the
Jayhawks, fnishing in 2nd and 3rd
places, respectively.
Pederson rocketed up the lead-
erboard with a third-round 66, the
lowest single-round score by any
competitor. Pedersons fnish was
his best as a Jayhawk, and his third-
round score was a career best.
Woodland played consistently,
as usual. his second-place fnish
continues his streak of three con-
secutive top-10 showings.
senior Tyler docking fnished in
a tie for 43rd and freshman Bobby
Knowles fnished tied for 49th.
Kansas will take part in the Pres-
tige at PGa West on october 16-17
in la Quinta, Calif.
