$100 Fee Cut will
not be running a
platform. The coali-
tion will focus their
efforts on promot-
ing one issue that
will be included as
a referendum on
election ballots in
April.
Chanay said the
coalition wanted
to reduce the
student campus
fees by $100. He
said this issue was
important because
it would make
paying for college
easier for students,
reverse the uphill
climb that fees
have been taking
over the years and
force the Univer-
sity and Student
Senate to set
priorities and be
more careful with
student money.

Wireless Campus
Work with the University and individual
colleges to expand wireless Internet in
classrooms, gathering spaces and living
environments on campus to keep up with
the continuing increase of student depen-
dence on technology.
Affordable Textbooks
Help students with the rising cost of
textbooks by making a University policy
requiring professors to declare their text-
books earlier so stores can fnd more used
copies, force publishers that offer bundled
products to also offer individual copies
and pass legislation for a tax-free textbook
program.
Financial Aid Accessibility
Create software that would link a students
enrollment information to a site that
would list all fnancial aid opportunities
that would apply to the individual, making
the search for additional aid less diffcult.
Also set up a service that would give
students additional education concerning
fnancial planning.
Advising
Improve advising process for undeclared
junior and higher-level students, multiple-
major students and students interested in
changing their major. Make an interactive
ARTS form that makes curriculum require-
ments clearer and integrated into the
timetable as well as creating an advising
desk to give students a holistic approach
to their advising.
Bike Lanes on Jayhawk Boulevard
Create a bike path along Jayhawk Boule-
vard by moving the parallel parking spots
along the side to other lots around cam-
pus, leaving room for the bike path.
Academic Technology Borrowing
Create an academic technology-borrow-
ing center that would allow students to
check out such things as cameras, video
recorders and laptops to be used for class
projects.
Redevelopment of Student Organizations
Web site
Create a Web site that would have an
online form that gathers information from
various groups and sends it to the needed
department instead of organizations
having to go to four different locations to
register. The site also would provide online
tutorials and resources for organizations
that were previously diffcult to locate.
Meal Plan Usability
Change the current meal plan system to
allow students more fexibility to change
their minds regarding meal plans. It
would give students more time to fgure
out their schedules and pick a meal plan
that fts their needs rather than wast-
ing money on a plan that goes partially
unused.
Weekend Circulating SafeBus
To handle the high demand of SafeRide,
this plan would create a circular route that
would allow students to move about from
area to area throughout the city with their
KUID.

Support University Divestment
from Sudan
Request that the University
withdraw all its investments with
companies that do business with
the Sudanese government and
pledge to withhold its business
with these companies until the
genocide in Sudan has ended.
Sustainability and Gray Water
Create a Center for Sustainability
that would serve as a resource
for student and faculties to do
research on pressing environ-
mental, cultural and social is-
sues. Also, create a campus-wide
grey water system that would
collect rainwater to be reused
for irrigation of lawns and flower
beds, saving the University over
$100,000 annually.
Support for graduate teaching
assistants during Contract Rene-
gotiations
Abolish the 10-semester limit for
GTAs, because it takes the most
experienced teachers out of the
classroom affecting the educa-
tion quality at the University.
Also, work for better working
conditions and benefits such as
health insurance for GTAs.
Noise Ordinance
Prevent Universitysanctioned
consequences to students living
in off-campus residences as well
as ensuring that the city passes
fair and objective ordinances
that will not directly affect stu-
dents in a negative way.
Sexual Assault Reform
Work with the University to
clarify the current rules regard-
ing specific consequences for
certain types of sexual assault so
that each case is treated justly
and the safety of all attending
the University is ensured.
Increase Student-Created Media
Make funding more available to
student-created art and literature
projects to increase the amount
of various genres of publications
and media on campus. Also, have
Student Senate assist students in get-
ting academic papers published more
often and with greater ease.
Promote Electronic Privacy Policy
Create a student-run task force
that would work with the Univer-
sity to establish a definite policy
of electronic privacy regarding
student discipline and those
applying for University employ-
ment. The task force would be
looking at the use of sites such
as facebook.com and MySpace.

ogy is becoming a greater part of

Student Senate elections are quick-
ly approaching and the coalitions
Delta Force, Ignite and $100 Fee Cut
Party, formerly known as Student
Voice, have offcially kicked off the
campaign process.
Coalition members have chalked the
sidewalks on campus to advertise their
groups and set up tables in front of Wes-
coe Hall for students to visit to get more
information regarding each coalition.
The coalitions have now released
their platforms with the issues that, if
elected, they will focus on. Each co-
alitions platforms propose changes to
the University of Kansas that the can-
didates see as some of the most press-
ing issues facing students.
The Ignite coalition has chosen to
run ten platforms, Delta Force has
picked seven and $100 Fee Cut Party
will not be running a platform, but
will support a referendum on the elec-
tion ballot.

A proposal that would give $5 million to the
University of Kansas to build a frst-class cancer
research center was heard in the Kansas House
Appropriations committee Tuesday.
While there was only testimony on behalf of
the legislation, questions remained about the lan-
guage of the bill.
Committee chairman Melvin Neufeld (R-In-
galls) said that there was some initial misunder-
standing between the committee and Dr. Roy Jen-
sen, director of the Kansas Cancer Center, about
the role that the Kansas Bioscience Authority
would play in the center.
Jensen said he was not opposed to the Biosci-
ence Authority working with the center, but said
that it was not appropriate to have it oversee the
center. Jensen said that it was the ultimate goal of
the center to have the National Cancer Institute
oversee it.
Another issue mentioned was working the leg-
islation to permit the cancer center to be an off-
cial fxture of the government to allow for a long-
term commitment from lawmakers as well as to
guarantee long-term funding.
Neufeld said this bill was important because of what
it meant to Kansans in terms of cancer research.
Jensen, meanwhile, said he was absolutely
optimistic about the prospects of the bill. Jensen
added that the question was not whether the state
government would support the bill, but rather
how they would support it.
Neufeld said there were plans to work with or
even add amendments to the bill during the next
few days before presenting it to the committee
next week.
Jensen said that although he didnt think a bill
is necessary, it was important that the University
remained cooperative in helping to craft satisfac-
tory legislation.

As city crews head into their fourth day of
cleaning up Lawrence after Sundays storm, at-
tention will start to shift from sweeping debris
off streets and sidewalks to cleaning up parks.
Westar Energy is still working to restore power
to a small number of residents.
Fred DeVictor, director of Lawrence Parks &
Recreation, said the department looked at indi-
vidual parks and found tree debris and hanging
limbs. Crews plan to start fixing up South Park
first in order to get the area ready for the an-
nual St. Patricks Day parade on Friday.
Cleaning up the areas will not just happen
this week, DeVictor said at the City Commis-
sion meeting Tuesday night. We will have to
work into the next few weeks.
Chuck Soules, Lawrence Public Works direc-
tor, said that the city had about 200 staff mem-
bers out working in the city. Many of them work
12-hour shifts. He said he went to look at the
dump site at 1901 Wakarusa Dr. at 5:30 p.m.
Tuesday, and crews were still hauling debris.
There is also a smaller dump site at 11th
and Haskell streets. The county was asked to
provide extra dump trucks from contractors to
help haul debris because there was such a large
amount.

Nicholas Uljanov slams down
his baton suddenly, a trace of frus-
tration surfacing on his normally
well-controlled features. He has
missed a cue, and the orchestra
is making mistakes. He tells them
they are forgetting what they have
known since they were 12 the
simplest techniques.
Then he softens a bit with a joke
about his own blunder.
I am so old, I can forget. But
you all are so young, everybody,
he says in heavily accented English,
hinting at his Slavic upbringing.
Now in his third year conduct-
ing the KU Symphony Orchestra,
Uljanovs mission is to promote the
orchestra and bring students to its
performances with the same zeal
they have for attending Jayhawk
basketball games.
I cannot understand why the
people go there, thousands of them
stand in the long line, he said, ges-
turing with his hand toward Allen
Fieldhouse through the window of
his large, no-frills offce on the frst
foor of Murphy Hall, but they
do not come to the music.

plumbing mishap turns
water faucet to beer tap
OSLO, Norway It almost
seemed like a miracle to Haldis
Gundersen when she turned
on her kitchen faucet and
found the water had turned
into beer.
Two fights down, employ-
ees and customers at the Big
Tower Bar were horrifed when
water poured out of the beer
taps.
By an improbable feat of
clumsy plumbing, someone
at the bar in Kristiandsund, in
western Norway, had acciden-
tally hooked the beer hoses to
the water pipes for Gunders-
ens apartment.
We had settled down for
a cozy Saturday evening, had
a nice dinner, and I was just
going to clean up a little,
Gundersen, 50, said Monday.
I turned on the kitchen faucet
and beer came out.
Gundersen said the beer
was fat and not tempting,
even in a country where a half-
pint can cost about $3.75 in
grocery stores.
Per Egil Myrvang of the
local beer distributor said
he instructed bartenders by
telephone how to reconnect
the pipes.
The water and beer pipes
do touch each other, but you
have to be really creative to
connect them together, he
said.

man hopes to fnd bride

GREENSBURG, Pa. Mark
R. Miller hopes some female

unique feature: him.
The 47-year-old says hes

He helps parents fnd missing

Miller has been running ads
in newspapers and on the Web
site http://www.townhousewith-

which includes a wooden deck,
air conditioning and gas log
freplace. The asking price is
$95,000.
Id like to be married,
and I was going to sell (the
town house) on my own, so I
thought, why not put the two
together? Miller said.
Miller came up with the
idea after reading about a
woman who sold her home
through a house with bride
marketing campaign. Any
deal is subject to compatibil-
ity, his ad says.
Miller said he will donate
to his charity any proft after

Matt Ubben found himself
in an unusual viewing locale
for Sunday mornings storm:
indoors.
A fve-year veteran of storm
chasing, Ubben, Rosehill ju-
nior, awoke Sunday morning
to a crash on his window, fol-
lowed soon after by sirens. His
curiosity convinced him to go
outside. The weather Sunday
morning, cool and dry, did not
seem right for a severe storm,
he said.
The Sunday morning storm
kicked off Severe Weather
Awareness Week in Kansas.
Jennifer Stark, a meteorolo-
gist with the Topeka National
Weather Service, will present
the weeks highlight, a Weather
101 lecture, at 7:00 tonight at
the Lawrence Arts Center, 940
New Hampshire.
The KU chapter of the Amer-
ican Meteorological Society
will be presenting information
about severe weather in Kan-
sas on Wescoe Beach all week
to raise awareness of severe
weather safety practices, espe-
cially among out of state stu-
dents.
Its Kansas and severe
weather does happen, said
Alex Perkins, AMS president.
While AMS can advocate
severe weather awareness, the
group itself isnt offcially al-
lowed go storm chasing or
storm spotting. Donna Tucker,
associate professor of geog-
raphy, said organized storm
chasing has been prohibited
within KU organizations since
before she joined the faculty in
1993.
Storm chasing is a danger-
ous activity, Tucker said. She
said it made perfect sense to her
why the University avoided the
liability of endorsing student
storm chasers.
Storm chasing poses dangers
even to experienced meteorolo-
gists, said Curt Holderbach,
meteorologist in charge at the
National Weather Service in To-
peka. The reasons for untrained
spotters and chasers to stay
away from severe storms range
from strong winds to lightning
and hail, he said.
Trained spotters work in
conjunction with the Nation-
al Weather Service and local
emergency offcials, such as
Douglas County Emergency
Management. Douglas County
requires visual confrmation of
a tornado by a spotter or law
enforcement offcer to sound
the tornado sirens.
Spotters go through exten-
sive training, including a spot-
ter talk like tonights Weather
101 lecture, and learn how
to handle various weather
situations, according to Mark
Cairns, Douglas County Emer-
gency Management duty offcer
and former spotter.
Youre trained to look for
more than one way out, he
said.
Chasers take more risks than
spotters, Cairns said.
Those people are really cra-
zy, he said.
Perkins has never chased a
storm, but wants to in the fu-
ture. She said her background
as an atmospheric science ma-
jor would help her know which
situations to avoid.
Before Ubben started chas-
ing, he attended a spotter talk,
similar to tonights lecture, but
said the best learning experi-
ence was working with experi-
enced chasers. In his fve years
of chasing, hes seen three tor-
nadoes and countless funnel
clouds.
Its one of the biggest rushes
Ive ever experienced, he said.
Edited by Matt Wilson
Lawrences sirens sounded
without fail during the statewide
tornado drill yesterday afternoon,
quelling concerns about their effec-
tiveness Sunday.
The questions arose over the si-
rens condition Sunday afternoon
when Lawrence police offcers be-
gan issuing severe weather warn-
ings from their patrol cars, a prac-
tice that Bob Newton, Douglas
County Emergency Management
duty offcer, said Lawrence offcials
used prior to the installation of out-
door tornado sirens.
A siren maintenance company
arrived Sunday afternoon after
county offcials were unable to
confrm if the sirens went off dur-
ing the early morning storm. The
company repaired an antenna used
to transmit and receive messages
from the individual sirens, but con-
cluded that the sirens had sounded
and were in working condition for
the entire day.
Lawrences sirens sounded af-
ter the storm hit because Douglas
County Emergency Management
requires visual confrmation of a
tornado either by a trained spotter
or law enforcement offcial before
sirens will be sounded, said Mark
Cairns, Douglas County Emergen-
cy Management duty offcer. The
department received a spotter re-
port at 8:07 a.m. and sounded the
sirens at 8:08 a.m.
Sirens are not used in cases of
severe thunderstorm warnings be-

Conductor
continued from page 1a
Uljanov pronounced Ool-
YA-nuff understands the appeal
of sports, but does not understand
why music and the arts do not en-
joy the same popularity among KU
students.
In fact, Uljanov is a bit of an ath-
lete himself. His tall, athletic frame
gives credence to his recollections
of playing tennis and soccer, skiing
in the Alps and, although his stiff
body movements make the visual-
ization slightly more diffcult, fgure
skating competitively.
Total Dedication
Most of his students simply
call him maestro, a common term
for conductors. Coming to the
University two years after Brian
Priestman, a father fgure of a con-
ductor, Uljanov has injected some
discipline and ideas of his own by
adding a rehearsal to the weekly
schedule and creating an orchestra
advisory council. Such a council
usually exists only in professional
orchestras. The council gives stu-
dents an opportunity to discuss
their ideas about repertoire and
the direction of the orchestra.
His students generally charac-
terize him as frm, but fair. They
credit the quality of the orches-
tra to his conducting ability and
strictly on-task rehearsals.
Kevin Pitts, Topeka senior, said
that before Uljanov came, expec-
tations of the orchestra members
werent very high. If members
couldnt play a part, they wouldnt
be held accountable.
The orchestra realizes how
much better he has made us as a
group, Pitts said.
Uljanovs level of dedication is
evident even in casual conversa-
tion. Any attempts to elicit personal
information from him quickly turn
to talk of the orchestra and ways it
can be improved and expanded.
Everyone on this campus is
welcome to come to us, he said
repeatedly. He wants everyone
to know that the music depart-
ment will work with them to fnd
a way for them to play.
He laughed at the prospect
of having hobbies outside of his
job, saying he had time for little
other than his work. He said he
often worked late into the night.
Although he wasnt inclined to
talk about himself, the pride was
evident when he talked about the
conducting workshops he set up
with Gerhard Schwarz, the music
director of the Seattle Symphony.
Uljanov wrote him an impas-
sioned letter about strengthening
the cultural value of the music
programs at the University.
To get this man to Kansas is
very diffcult. He is very famous.
I convinced him to come to us
and do this conducting work-
shop. Its a very important event
not only for the school of music,
but for the entire University.
Schwarz will be here on April
17 and 18, and both he and Ul-
janov are hoping to create a mu-
sical version of the University of
Iowa Writers Workshop.
Schwarz said, That remarkable
program helps identify Iowa. With
that knowledge, I was intrigued to
try to do something in our musical
world that was signifcant nation-
ally and could help identify the
University of Kansas as the cul-
tural center and force that it is.
A History Abroad
Uljanov was born in St. Pe-
tersburg, Russia, but he was not
about to divulge the year.
Im too old. Everybody will
say, We have the old professor,
he said.
He speaks fve languages
Russian, German, French, Ital-
ian and English. Unfortunately,
he said, English is his worst.
His resum boasts study un-
der some of the most talented
conductors in the world, includ-
ing Mariss Janson, Ilja Musin
and Alexander Dmitriev. He has
conducting experience with well-
known orchestras across Eu-
rope, Russia and South America.
Notable examples include the
Iceland Symphony Orchestra,
Orchestre de Radio France and
the Orchestre Philharmonique
de Nice, also in France.
Uljanov knew he wanted to be
a conductor since he was 5 years
old and attended his frst ballet
performance. He said the St. Pe-
tersburg ballet was one of the old-
est and best in the world at that
time. He said he believed that
every child has some experience
in their youth that makes a very
strong impact and shapes their fu-
ture and choice of profession.
He has extensive knowledge
of voice and all brass and string
instruments, but his greatest
strengths are the violin and the
piano, both of which he has
played since age 6.
To be a great conductor, you
have to be frst a great perform-
er, Uljanov said.
Currently his favorite com-
poser is Beethoven, but he said
in a month it will be different. He
loves the composer whose music
he is currently working on, he ex-
plained.
He came to Lawrence, which
he described as a small, nice,
very quiet city, to teach. He was
taught that it is important to share
your gifts with the next generation
so that the art never dies.
When he came here, his wife,
Helen, and their two children,
ages 24 and 26, remained in Sal-
zburg, Austria. Although he said
he wished to keep his private life
private, he lit up as he counted
how many days it would be until
he would see his wife.
I miss every place I lived. Ev-
ery place I lived more than two or
three months, you leave some part
of your heart of your life, he said.
At Work
Patrick Hauber, a Cleveland,
Mo., graduate student, is one of
Uljanovs three graduate con-
ducting students. He said seeing
Uljanov conduct was what made
him to come to KU after gradu-
ating from the University of Mis-
souri-Kansas City.
The minute he steps up to
the podium, its just this electric
energy that Ive never seen from
another conductor, not even the
famous ones, Hauber said.
Hauber admitted that Uljanov
pushed his students hard, say-
ing that although he got paid for
eight hours, he usually worked
far more.
Hes not the type of guy to
hold your hand. He will just say
what needs to be said and some-
times that will rub people the
wrong way, Hauber said. Its
as natural to him as one foot in
front of the other.
Hauber said there were days
when he would go home mad
as heck at Uljanov, but after
evaluating his own performance,
he appreciated that Uljanov was
a great teacher.
If he were a mean person, he
wouldnt be saying these things,
he would be keeping them from
us, he said.
Uljanov stays up until midnight
many nights, thinking of new
ways to do things and institut-
ing outreach programs and part-
nerships, Hauber said. There are
many administrative duties that
accompany being a conductor.
When you think about the
budget that we dont have, and
the staff that we do, its really
amazing that it gets pulled off,
he said.
Although it isnt obvious, be-
hind the polish of instruments
and the formality of performance
attire, a man sits in an offce late
into the evening, planning and
devising new ways for his or-
chestra to be heard.

Kansan staff writer
A new Web site, construct-
ed in early November, allows
women to post revenge on
cheating boyfriends, fiances
and husbands.
The site, dontdatehimgirl.
com, has become a trendy
tool for women to warn other
women of potential cheaters.
I think its a great resource
for women, creater Tasha
Cavelle Joseph said last week
on the Today Show.
Joseph, a journalist, wrote
a column for The Miami Her-
ald for more than seven years.
She was inspired to start
the Web site after talking to
friends about their relation-
ships with cheating men.
The searchable database
lists mens full names, pic-
tures and detailed descrip-
tions of why they should be
avoided.
Celebrity hotshots like Jude
Law and Eric Benet have even
been added to the database.
My best friend dated a
sleazeball, and I would so put
his name in there, said An-
drea Iman, Elkhart junior.
Iman said the site is funny
and entertaining.
Eric DeVault, Lawrence
junior, said people wanted
drama, and thats why men
and women were debating the
issue. The site, he said, would
be another trend that stirs up
drama.
He said the site could be
slanderous toward men in
some situations, but he was
not worried about the site be-
cause he hadnt cheated on
any girlfriends.
The site gives men a chance
to counteract his bashing,
by submitting a reply to the
posting. If a mans contact
information is given with the
posting, he is sent an e-mail
notification that hes on the
Web site.
Out of more than 1,000
men who are listed, 50 to 100
have posted a reply.
Although women can post
anonymously, the site keeps
their information that is re-
quired for registration, in case
Joseph finds false information
in a post.
Joseph said the Web site,
which has three other staff
members, gets 580,000 hits
a day and has 250,000 regis-
tered members. Maintaining
the site is her full-time job.
Users submit 100 men each
day, and there is a backlog of
about two thousand submis-
sions that Joseph and her col-
leagues must sort.
Joseph updates a blog every
few weeks. The blog includes
Cheaters of the Day, site
promotions and funny stories
about cheating men.
A countering Web site,
dontdateherman.com, is in
development and will be up
the first week of April.

Wallace, 87, has often said hell

A majority of the debris has

the city will continue today until
everything is cleared.
Lisa Patterson, Lawrence

said the state assessment team
sent out Monday to measure the

formation on Tuesday regarding
its evaluation.
Cost and assessment of the
damage will come from the Ad-

assessment teams information
becomes available. Any federal
aid the city could receive would
be determined by the damage
assessment.

and houses without power that
they were not aware of.
In storm situations, power
outages can affect one single
home, so its harder to tell
sometimes who has power
and who does not, she said.
This is why were asking
people to call our 800-num-
ber and let us know. Even
if its one or two people, we
want them to call.
Westar electrical outage re-
porting line is 1-800-544-4857.
Penzig offered no specifcs on
any particular region in Law-
rence where residents were still
without power. The areas are
pretty scattered, she said.
The East Lawrence Recre-
ation Center, 1245 E. 15th St.,
was one of a few businesses that
didnt regain power until Tues-
day. The business opened back
up after its power came back
mid-morning.
Mayor Dennis Boog High-
berger and other city commis-
sioners were pleased with the
city crews responsiveness.
I commend all the city em-
ployees for their hard work and

BAGHDAD, Iraq Iraqi au-
thorities discovered at least 87
corpses men shot to death exe-
cution-style as Iraq edged clos-
er to open civil warfare. Twenty-
nine of the bodies, dressed only
in underwear, were dug out of a
single grave Tuesday in a Shiite
neighborhood of Baghdad.
Some of the bloodshed ap-
peared to be retaliation for a
bomb and mortar attack in the
Sadr City slum that killed at least
58 people and wounded more
than 200 two days earlier.
Iraqs Interior Minister Bayan
Jabr, meanwhile, told The As-
sociated Press security offcials
had foiled a plot that would have
put hundreds of al-Qaida men
at critical guard posts around
Baghdads heavily fortifed Green
Zone, home to the U.S. and other
foreign embassies, as well as the
Iraqi government.
A senior Defense Ministry off-
cial said the 421 al-Qaida fghters
were recruited to storm the U.S.
and British embassies and take
hostages.
Several ranking Defense Min-
istry offcials have been jailed in
the plot, said the offcial, speak-
ing on condition of anonymity
because of the sensitivity of the
information.
Defense Secretary Donald H.
Rumsfeld said Tuesday that he
had not received anything defni-
tive on the report, but cautioned
that earlier accounts are often ad-
justed later on.

Last week the editorial board
suggested that casino gambling
could benet Kansas but that a ca-
sino shouldnt come to Lawrence.
But more casinos in Kansas
will not help our state. To win
at gambling, you need to un-
derstand the numbers, and they
dont add up for this deal.
Kansas already has four casi-
nos operated by Indian Tribes.
Those casinos posted less than
1 percent growth last year, ac-
cording to The Kansas City Star.
Contrast that against the 15 per-
cent growth experienced by tribal
casinos nationwide last year.
While the gaming industry
stagnates in Kansas, political
lobbying for it has grown by
leaps and bounds. Campaign
contributions from the gaming
industry have risen 300 percent
in the past 6 years, according to
The Wichita Eagle.
Missouri made just over $400
million in tax revenue from 11
casinos last year, according to
the American Gaming Associa-
tion. The proponents of this bill
have suggested that Kansas can
earn $200 to $300 million a year
on only two casinos plus slot
machines at three race tracks. Of
those three tracks, the Wyandotte
County one would be in direct
competition with one of the pro-
posed casinos and track in Dodge
City that doesnt even exist.
Bill 587 would put a casino
in Wyandotte County and one
in southeast Kansas. Trying to
bank on the success of the Kansas
Speedway and the surrounding
area sounds great, but Kansas City
already has a well established gam-
ing industry. With four casinos in
the area, the gambling market is at
a saturation point Kansas City
residents dont need another place
to throw dice or play slots.
If our representatives wanted
to cash in on the gaming resur-
gence, we should have led rather
than followed. Expanded gaming
in Kansas 10 years ago would
have been a great idea. Now, its
just bandwagon jumping. Every-
one else is doing it, so why not
us does not make good political
reasoning. We dont let children
use such logic and we shouldnt
let our politicians either.
Missouri, Colorado and Okla-
homa all have gambling establish-
ments. Our two casinos would
be put in direct competition with
those in Missouri and Oklahoma.
With the glut of casinos available
in surrounding states, these estab-
lishments would predominantly
attract Kansans. This is opposite
of the way a healthy gambling
industry should act. A casino
should attract outside tourism
and take more money from tour-
ists than it does locals.
If gambling revenue comes
mainly from our own citizens,
other Kansas businesses will
suffer. Every local dollar lost to
a casino is a dollar that could
have gone to a Kansas-owned
business and generated tax
revenue for the state.
Admittedly, Kansas needs
money. All governments need,
or at least want, more money
than they have. Gambling rev-
enue sounds great, hundreds of
millions of dollars without more
taxes. But their dollar estimates
dont make sense given the state
of gambling in the Midwest.
My suggestion to the legisla-
tors: Give up on gambling. Put
your time and our tax dollars to
work building a stronger Kansas
economy that continues to grow.
Dont saddle us with state-owned
casinos designed to siphon money
away from Kansas businesses.

Sundays wind storm blew
hard through the city of Law-
rence and the campus. Heres
our run down of the good and
bad of how the authorities and
students handled the storm.
Good. Way to go Facilities
Operations. With the hard work
of all its employees, campus
was cleaned up and made safe
within 48 hours. At the peak
of work on Sunday, more than
400 employees from ground and
building crews were cleaning up
and assessing damage. Work-
ers stopped weekend plans and
worked 10- to 12-hour shifts on
Sunday.
Bad. Tornado sirens. The si-
rens went off late and students
didnt have enough time to
respond to them. Students said
they didnt hear the sirens wail.
Good. Classes were can-
celled. Not only was this the
smart thing for the University to
do regarding safety and clean-
up, but students got a surprise
three-day weekend and a mini-
breather before Spring Break.
Bad. A poor job by the Public
Safety Ofce in managing campus.
Ofcers were incorrectly telling pe-
destrians that campus was closed.
Their orders were to discourage
students from being on campus,
but The University Daily Kansan
heard accounts from students
about ofcers telling students they
couldnt go on campus. Memorial
Drive was blocked near Carruth
and OLeary Hall by an ofcer
about 2 p.m. Sunday, but not on
the Mississippi Street entrance. Of-
cers later blocked both entrances.
Good. The ofce did cut
down on campus foot trafc by
Sunday afternoon.
Bad. Power outage. Students in
the Oread Neighborhood didnt
get power back until about mid-
night Sunday, and some not until
Monday. Waiting to x lines until
the expected second storm, which
never came, set the process back
and left students in the dark.
Good. The Ofce of Admis-
sions held special presentations
for visitors who had campus tours
scheduled for Monday. All of its
staff was also working on presen-
tations for the potential students
and their families at the Visitors
Center west of Templin Hall.
Things get complicated dur-
ing a uke storm, and its not
easy to respond. Overall, the
city and the University did a
good job reacting to the storm.
John Jordan for the editorial
board.
I just want you to know I was
really happy about having a day
off because of the tornado, and
its totally ruined because the
Cryptoquip clue is wrong again.

Somebody just delivered a


UDK to my front yard. Thats
like the coolest thing thats
ever happened to me.
To the two girls who were
taking stupid photos in
Anschutz library when they
thought no one was looking, I
kind of saw you.

No opinion page? I have


opinions on days Im out of
school too, you know.

Does anyone else think its


ironic that The Weather Chan-
nel is having Tornado Watch
this week?

Facebook, this is the


worst day of my life. I just
got dumped by two of my
friends.

If I could get all my tests


on Facebook, I think I would
study a lot more. It would be
pretty sweet.
Spring break is so close that
you can almost taste the sticky,
sweet syrup of strawberry mar-
garitas or feel the sting of fresh
snow on skin. A 2004 article
from American Demographics
reported that 2.14 million college
students traveled for spring break
in 2003. If you are like millions
of other college students across
this nation, you will be hitting the
road headed to exotic locales or if
you are really lucky, hotspots like
Omaha, Tulsa or Pittsburgh.
Getting away for spring break
provides a much-needed reprieve
from the daily grind of life at the
University of Kansas. Whether
you are headed to the beach or
headed home, the break brings
fresh opportunities your way.
Everything blooms in the
spring, so why cant your love life?
Spring break is the international
mating call for all single and frisky
college students. It is also prob-
ably one of the only times in ones
life when the phrase Im soooooo
drunk! can sum up so many ideas
all at once and pass as acceptable
communication between adults.
Such ippancy offers no greater
time to plunge into the deep and
murky waters of spring break
hook-ups. The hook-up waters are
never tame or easy to navigate. You
have to jump in feet rst, holding
your breath and hope you will
wash up with the tide once the ride
is over. In these waters anything
(and almost everything) goes.
When anything goes, go with it.
What happens in Cancun or Aspen
stays in Cancun or Aspen.
There is no better time to ex-
perience a new love or reinvig-
orate an old one, than during
spring break, when the mood
is a little lighter and the sun is
shining a little brighter.
While true and honest love
might not hit you like a bottle
of Budweiser on the head, at
least the relaxation and utter
frivolity of the break can bring
you some much needed passion.
You might not nd your future
spouse or life partner, but at
least you might have a nice little
romp in the sand or snow.
After all, if your hook-up (or
lack thereof) goes awry, you
always have the cushion of hun-
dreds of miles to distance you from
your Girls Gone Wild behavior.
Though the chance to care-
lessly dissociate yourself from your
careless behavior comes at a price.
With excess comes consequence. If
you are smart and lucky, the only
thing you will bring home from
your spring break is a nice looking
tan and some really cool pictures.
So with that said, pack your
bags, because your next spring
break hook-up is just a few
days and a plane ight or a
road trip away. Be careful, have
fun, and most importantly, have
a drink for me!

GUEST COMMENTARY
About seven in the morning,
I woke up to thunder outside
my window. My cats, unfamiliar
with thunderstorms, began to get
rufed. At eight, the thunder was
closer and there was no sleep for
me. I fully woke up with a wall
of wind smashed into the side of
my apartment building.
I peeked through my blinds
in time to see debris spinning
around and a small tree next to
my parking lot getting ripped
out and tossed like a toy into
the street. I calmly sat down on
my bed and thought to myself
Huh, a tornado. As branches
and rocks hammered against
my windows, I turned on the
television just in time to see
Tornadoes ravage Midwest on
CNN. Then the power cut off as
a crash shook the building.
Five minutes
later, I stood in
front of my third-
oor apartment.
Not even a
football eld
away, three
other concrete
columns had
been reduced
to a pile of rubble. My neighbor
was standing just outside his
doorway; the bricks and wind
had knocked the door in.
He told me he woke up when
his door ew open. Underneath
his feet, the walkway had already
buckled under the weight of the
bricks. He was safe, but he was
getting the hell out of there. Down
on the ground, looking up at
the third oor damage, the roof
dipped precariously. Bit by bit,
the other people
in the building
began to trickle
out of their apart-
ments, despite
the tornado si-
rens still blaring.
Dazed, some
of us still wiping
the sleep out of
our eyes, we stood on the ground
and gazed up at what looked like
a modern art sculpture. At our
feet were several shattered bricks
and a mangled terrace. For a few
minutes, only the pop of ashes,
the click of camera phones and
the whirring of digital cameras
could be heard.
We had to leave. I was able to
load my cats into their carriers
and we were sent on our way.
They werent sure if we would be
able to get back in. So, through
the charity of one of my friends, I
was able to sit in his living room
and watch the damage unfold on
the television screen.
I spent the day either in my car
or glued to my computer and my
friends television. According to
my landlord, the roof was unstable
and there was a chance I would
have to spend the night in a hotel.
After what felt like one of the most
exhausting days of my life, long
hours of not knowing what was
happening, I drove by the complex
and there was a small piece of pa-
per tacked to the rst oor pillar. I
could move back in.
By that point, it was 7 p.m.,
almost twelve hours after every-
one in my building was put to
the winds. Everyone was dishev-
eled. Most of us hadnt show-
ered. Five minutes after I moved
in, the entire block lost power.
Below me, a cry rang out.
I f---ing hate this place!
This was quickly followed with
weary laughter.
By then, it was almost pitch
black out and the people mov-
ing back had become wraiths
in the darkness. Somewhere in
the darkness, a boom box came
to life and began blasting Cre-
dence Clear Water Revival.
People began to sing along.
One of my neighbors picked his
way across the branches and
bricks still littering our walk-
way and handed me a beer.
Hey, he said. At least we
won.

Before the actors arrive to
paint their faces, the stage
lights are fred up or the actors
take the stage, Ann Sitzman
unlocks the doors to the Inge
Theater in Murphy Hall.
Sitzman, Overland Park fresh-
man, stands in front of the light
and soundboard. Below her,
through the smudged glass of
the control booth and past the
light grid, she gazes at the stage
and takes a deep breath.
This is where I am for the
show, Sitzman said. Basi-
cally, its up to me to make sure
the show runs smoothly.
Sitzman is the stage manager
for the University of Kansas The-
atre Departments production
of Aristophanes A Congress
of Women. She sits behind the
bright lights and applause, sup-
porting the actors and the stage.
With a headset wrapped
around her ears, in her black
t-shirt she announces the cues
to the soundboard operator.
Down on the stage, a branch
propped up in the background
slowly slides down the back-
drop. With a frustrated sigh,
she tramps down the stairs and
props the branch up.
They need to nail that thing
or something, she said.
The branch slides back down
as she walks off. Sitzman dis-
misses it with a wave of her
hand as she heads downstairs
to wrangle the actors.
I set up all the rehearsals,
she said. I run auditions. I took
down all the blocking. I get the
props out, I make sure the cos-
tumes are set.
In essence, Sitzman runs the
show from her perch above the
audience and actors. She said
theatre is in her blood and she
loved what she did, no matter
whether she was back stage or
facing the footlights.
Its just this expressionistic
art that shows life, she said. Its
compelling, its interesting and
its unusual. Its this passionate
form of art. Its amazing.
Beneath the stage is the
green room, where the ac-
tors gather before the show.
Sitzman leans against the wall
next to a row of gray lockers
in front of the womens locker
room. Hanging on the lockers
is a clipboard that the actors
have to sign to let Sitzman
know theyre there.
Hey, did you sign in? she
asked an actor as he walked by.
He stops, shrugs sheepishly
and admits that he didnt.
You walked right by it, she
said, grinning. Actors.
Since she was asked to be
stage manager in November,
Sitzman said the show has con-
sumed her entire life. Between
making sure the costume de-
signer is on track to making
sure all props are available, she
said she had spent the majority
of her time in contact with one
person or another.
I had a life, she said. I just
dont know what happened to it.
Dennis Christilles, director
of Congress, said choosing
Sitzman to be the stage manag-
er seemed like a no-brainer after
she ran lights for the fall semes-
ter production of Popcorn.
Ann is doing a wonderful
job, he said. Something about
her made me think Shed be a
great stage manager. And for
once in my life, I was right.
Christilles said stage manag-
ing, a notoriously underappre-
ciated job, involved more than
simply making sure all cues
were on time. The stage man-
ager is a vital link between the
actors and technical crew.
Sitzman also has the respon-
sibility of making sure the di-
rectors vision of the play does
not change as the shows wear
on. She takes over the reins af-
ter the director gets the show
up and running.
Despite all of this, Christilles
said the show wouldnt have
come together as smoothly as
it did without Sitzmans help.
This is her frst time as
stage manager, he said. But
you wouldnt know it from the
way she has handled herself.

Stephen Vinson is tired of
CBSs NCAA tournament com-
mercials. Specifcally the one
the shows the fnal play of last
years Kansas-Bucknell game.
You are trying to get excited
about the tournament, but every
time I watch something about it
thats on there, Vinson said. You
think about it, but hopefully we will
use it as a learning experience.
Kansas coach Bill Self didnt
need to remind his team about
what happened during last sea-
sons NCAA tournament. He
joked that the media would take
care of it.
Why do I need to dwell on
Bucknell when you guys will do
that job for me? Self said yester-
day at his weekly press conference.
Selfs team no doubt remem-
bers the loss to Bucknell during
the frst round of last years tour-
nament, but Self has noticed dif-
ferences between last seasons
team and this seasons team.
He said last years team was
tight when it went into the tour-
nament and also had lost fve
of their last eight games, while
this years team has been playing
loose all season.
A lot of that is youth, Self
said of why this years team
has been so loose. We have a
bunch of young guys out there,
and they dont know any better.
Even when were not playing
well, they seem to enjoy playing
with each other.
Self also said he thought that
three of last years teams starters
being seniors affected the tight-
ness of the group.
I think a lot of times when
you have the fnality of it all, as
a young team, you say, Well, I
always got next year, Self said.
Senior guard Jeff Hawkins, for
whom there is no next year, said
the team couldnt worry about
Bucknell because no one on the
current team played an important
role in that game. In addition,
when Hawkins was intentionally
fouled in a game against Okla-
homa State last weekend, sopho-
more forward Darnell Jackson
came to his defense. Hawkins
said that probably would not
have happened last season.
It is more of a team,
Hawkins said of this years team.
The thing about last year is last
years team was a team, but we
were not all one team. There
were one or two people who
were not all the way in and that
affects chemistry. This years
team everyone is in. Thats the
special thing about this group.
Kansas, winners of 22 of its
past 25 games, is one of the hot-
test teams in the country enter-
ing the NCAA tournament.
This is a different team; we
are young, sophomore guard
Russell Robinson said. No
one on our team played in the
NCAA more than fve minutes,
so we are all excited for that.
Basketball Notes:
Sophomore center CJ Giles
has been battling a groin injury.
Self said he expected the rest
leading up to the tournament
to help Giles and said that he
should recover by Friday.
Freshman guard Brandon
Rush was named by a frst team
freshman All-American by The
Sporting News, the magazine
announced Monday.
Allen Fieldhouse will be fea-
tured on Hardwood Heavens on
the INHD Network starting tomor-
row at 8:30 p.m. Narrated by Brent
Musburger, Hardwood Heavens
will feature the history and tradi-
tions of Allen Fieldhouse.
Kansas recruit Brady Morn-
ingstar, who has signed to play
for Kansas next year, was at Al-
len Fieldhouse yesterday shoot-
ing before Kansas practice.

As unfortunate as it is, I know
that not all Kansas fans will be
able to watch the NCAA tour-
nament in person this year.
If I had to guess, most KU fans
will watch the Jayhawks in some
form, mostly on television.
We realize that students make
spring break plans that arent in
Lawrence. During spring break,
our aim will be to deliver cov-
erage that you couldnt get from
purely watching television.
Weve already made historic
progress this semester. Two
sports reporters, Daniel Berk
and Michael Phillips, started a
live blog from Dallas at the Big
12 Tournament.
Well continue a live blog on
kansan.com for the NCAA tour-
nament, starting Friday in Detroit.
The University Daily Kansan
wont be publishing a newspaper
during break, but dont expect
the sports coverage to dwindle.

If youre a KU student and
planning on watching the mens
NCAA tournament Thursday
night, Bonnie Henrickson wants
you to reconsider.
You cant TiVo our game,
the Kansas womens basketball
coach said.
Kansas will open the WNIT
against Northern Iowa Thursday
at 7 p.m. in Allen Fieldhouse.
Kansas offcials announced
Tuesday that the $8 ticket price
would be waived for students
with a valid KUID. The game
will not be televised.
Should Kansas win, it would
play host to Mississippi on Satur-
day at 2 p.m.
Kansas was selected to the
tournament with a 16-12 record,
including an 11-0 mark in non-
conference play. The team fn-
ished the season by losing two
consecutive games to Kansas
State by a combined margin of
38 points.
Since then, the Jayhawks have
gone back to the drawing board,
practicing every day except Sun-
day, when the weather forced
them to cancel.
It felt like practice in October,
defensively, Henrickson said.
The coach will need a big
game from senior forward Crys-
tal Kemp, who is 6-foot-2, but
will have to guard Panthers cen-
ter Cassie Hager, who stands at
6-foot-7, the tallest player Kemp
has matched up with all year.
Kansas other players will
have their hands full on defense
as well. Northern Iowa has three
players who average double-fg-
ure scoring. Junior guard Sharita
Smith will start for just the third
time this season, replacing fresh-
man guard Ivana Catic. Smith
has struggled on the offensive
end, but has provided a defensive
spark for the Jayhawks, handling
every opponent she has been put
up against this season.
The back-to-basics practices
will continue until Thursdays
game. Because they were cho-
sen to play host to the tourna-
ment, the Jayhawks will not
have to travel.
We cant rely on the fact that
were here, Henrickson said.
It will be a nice bonus for the
Jayhawks, though, who are 15-4
when playing at the feldhouse,
but only 1-8 in road games. That
is mostly because of the fact that
Kansas played all 11 of its non-
conference games at home.
Kansas played only one other
team from the Missouri Valley
Conference this year, defeating
Creighton 63-52 in December.
Northern Iowa lost twice to
Creighton by a combined mar-
gin of only eight points.
Kansas fans will be familiar
with the Missouri Valley by the
time the weekend is over, as the
Kansas men face Bradley on Fri-
day night.
Henrickson also expressed
disappointment on Tuesday that
the Big 12 Conference landed
only four teams in the NCAA
tournament: Baylor, Missouri,
Oklahoma and Texas A&M, and
that Oklahoma, which fnished
16-0 in Big 12 play, was awarded
only a two seed.
The Big 12 put four of its
teams in the WNIT as well. Iowa
State, Kansas State and Nebras-
ka all will play Thursday or Fri-
day. Texas Tech declined its invi-
tation to the tournament.

Bonnie Henrickson didnt
know the name of Northern
Iowas force in the paint, but
the coach was wary of her.
Less than 24 hours after
learning of her teams oppo-
nent, the Kansas coach knew
the type of damage UNIs 6-
foot-7-inch senior center Cassie
Hager could do in Thursday
nights frst round game of the
Womens National Invitational
Tournament.
Obviously, if we let her
stand a foot from the rim all
night that wont be good for
us, Henrickson said. Weve
got to make some adjustments
and get her out from under-
neath the rim.
Defending Hager, the tall-
est player Kansas has faced all
season, will be diffcult consid-
ering that the Jayhawks tallest
player is fve inches shorter.
For most of the game, shell be
matched in the paint against
Kansas All-Big 12 forward
Crystal Kemp, who is only 6-
foot-2-inches tall.
On most nights, Kemp is
among the tallest players on
the foor, but Thursday will be
much different. By comparison,
Kansas mens basketball players
Darnell Jackson and Christian
Moody are both 68, just an
inch taller than Hager.
Henrickson will attempt
to simulate Hagers height in
practice by using players from
her mens practice team.
A lot of times we dont let
the guys block shots, Henrick-
son said. Well let him block
shots for the next two days.
Hager paces the Panthers in
several statistical categories, in-
cluding blocks per game, where
she ranks second in Division
I. She averages 16 points, six
rebounds and more than four
blocks per game. And foul trou-
ble hasnt been much of a prob-
lem for Hager this season, as she
averages less than two fouls per
game.

Post-season preparation
Im calling a 20-second time
out from March Madness, thanks
to some early national recognition
for the Kansas baseball team.
The Jayhawks (15-6), are
ranked in Baseball Americas top
25 poll for the second straight
week. They also received votes
in the National Collegiate Base-
ball Writers Association poll
and have been in the Collegiate
Baseball poll this season.
Even if only barely (KU checks
in at No. 25 in Baseball America),
the team is receiving attention be-
cause of solid play against upper-
echelon competition. Its attention
that is rarely seen around here.
The Hawks have not been
afraid to go on the road to play
the best teams in the nation, and
that has paid off so far. Kansas
won two out of three games at
then-No. 19 Stanford back in
early February. Stanford is now
ranked No. 17 after dropping
out of the rankings following its
losses to Kansas.

TAMPA, Fla. The New York Yan-
kees were happy with Randy Johnsons
outing Tuesday and worried about
Johnny Damons shoulder.
Johnson cruised through four eff-
cient innings before tiring in the ffth,
and New York lost to the St. Louis Car-
dinals 4-3.
The fnal score, however, was far less
important to the Yankees than their
center felders health more than 2,100
miles away in Anaheim, Calif., where
Damon has been playing for the United
States in the World Baseball Classic.
New Yorks biggest acquisition of
the offseason has a sore left shoulder,
the same one that hindered him late
last year and weakened an already infe-
rior throwing arm. He sat out Monday
nights 7-3 loss to South Korea.
U.S. team spokesman Rob Butch-
er said Damons latest ailment does
not appear to be a serious injury.
But this is exactly the kind of issue
Yankees owner George Steinbrenner
was referring to when he spoke out
against the WBC.
Nothing to say, Steinbrenner re-
peated twice Tuesday as he hustled to-
ward an elevator on his golf cart. Ive
said it all.
Butcher said Damons problem is
being called spring training shoulder,
something players often get this time of
year.
From our standpoint, its nothing
more than a sore shoulder, Butcher
said, adding that Damon is expected to
be available for Thursday nights game
against Mexico.
But Damon told reporters Monday
night in Anaheim that he has been in-
structed not to throw for a few days by
U.S. team trainers who consulted
with New York general manager Brian
Cashman.
Cashman, however, was returning to
Tampa from his grandmothers funeral
on Tuesday and indicated he didnt
know much yet about the injury.
I have no information on it. I will
focus on that tomorrow, Cashman
said through Yankees spokesman
Rick Cerrone.
One thing is sure, the Yankees arent
happy about Damon hurting while far
away from the team at the WBC.
Thats the thing you dread most is
the injury, manager Joe Torre said. Its
sort of a helpless feeling.
Damon left Boston for a $52 million,
four-year contract with New York dur-
ing the offseason. He has played in four
of the Americans fve games in the inau-
gural WBC, going 1-for-7. Before sitting
out Monday, he pinch-hit in Sundays
4-3 victory over Japan.
Thats the one thing about going,
you have to be so ready to play. Thats
got to be the hard part, Yankees team-
mate Jason Giambi said. When you
frst get down here, I dont care how
much you trained or whatever you do,
you cant simulate being out in the feld
playing baseball.

continued from page 1B
Henrickson said one of her teams strengths,
transition play, was the key to taking Hagers
impact out of the game. If the Jayhawks could
run and score in transition, she said it could
eliminate the five-inch height disadvantage in
the post.
Despite UNIs obvious height advantage,
Henrickson has no plans of allowing Hager
to control the paint. Instead, she wants her
team to continue to be aggressive and attack
the basket. A bright spot for Kansas is that
Kemp can step outside the paint and take a
jump shot, as well as battle inside the paint.
Were fortunate that Crystal has a great
touch and doesnt have to be a foot away
from the rim to score, Henrickson said. We
still want Crystal go be aggressive and attack
her.

This past weekend, Kansas lost
two out of three games to No. 2
Clemson, again on the road, but
was highly competitive on Saturday
and Sunday. The Jayhawks beat the
Tigers 6-5 on Saturday when fresh-
man frst baseman Preston Land hit
a solo home run in the eighth inning.
On Sunday, the Jayhawks led 2-1 af-
ter fve innings before falling 4-3 in
the late innings.
Those two series have put KU on
the national baseball map. Kansas
was one of only fve Big 12 teams to
be ranked this week, and is nipping
at the heels of in-state rival Wichita
State, which is ranked No. 23.
The key to continued success for
the Jayhawks this year will be fnish-
ing in the upper half of the Big 12,
which felds 10 teams in baseball.
Kansas has never been one of the
fve best teams in the league, and in
the same time period has not quali-
fed for the NCAA tournament. In
fact, the Jayhawks havent been to
the tournament since 1994, the year
after their appearance in the College
World Series.
In a traditionally strong confer-
ence like the Big 12, fnishing in the
top fve usually gets a team into the
tournament. Last season, the leagues
top fve all made it to the tourna-
ment. Kansas conference schedule
starts this weekend at Baylor, which
fnished second in the conference
last year and went to the College
World Series.
Kansas won 11 conference games
last season and fnished seventh.
Fifth-place Oklahoma won 14, so to
jump into the top half likely wouldnt
take a huge improvement.
Coach Ritch Price has brought the
Jayhawks out of the conference cel-
lar and made them a tough team to
face in his three-plus years at KU. If
he and his squad can take the next
step and make the NCAA tourna-
ment this season, it would go a long
way toward making Kansas a force
to be reckoned with in the Big 12 on
a yearly basis.

The Stars Show the Kind of Day Youll Have:
5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Diffcult
ARIES (March 21-April 19)HHHH
Though others could be complicated in their
responses, you can be sure you will have
the impact you want. Subtle but strong logic
will work. Best would be that others think
they hatched an idea you cook up.
Tonight: Say yes.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20)HHH Easy
does it. You might not always understand
what it takes to nudge events to your liking.
Closing down and being stubborn will not
help. Work through your resistances by
focusing on each individual.
Tonight: Let go of your stuff.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) HHHHH
You might be rather serious at frst, but
when you lighten up, you are all laughs.
Eventually, others will ease up and back off
of their positions, too. Conversations might
accomplish more in this atmosphere.
Tonight: Play away.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHHH
Settle in and build a budget on your basic
needs. You might opt to say no to an invest-
ment as a result. Sometimes you overextend
yourself (we all do). Investigate what needs
to happen with a real estate or domestic
expenditure.
Tonight: Anchor in at home.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHHHH You
might need to rethink a recent conversation.
Lately, you have had a tendency to be a little
out of it or upset. You might want to think in
terms of gains. Listen well to others with an
eye to keeping ideas and communication
fowing.
Tonight: At your favorite spot.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)HHH You
could see life quite differently if you get past
a negativity that flters through your mind.
You could be uptight about your spending
and your choices. You might want to rethink
an important decision.
Tonight: Pay bills.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)HHHHH
Finally, you hit your peak days, though
someone could be making touchy or hard
comments. Take a serious look at your long-
term desires, not your rote answers about
what is important. Then make decisions.
Tonight: As you wish.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)HHH
Review an important issue. Think positively
about what you want and need. Verify facts,
and dont expect all solutions or information
to immediately drop in your lap. Your daily
life could be a touch weighty.
Tonight: A must show.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
HHHH You might want facts and only
facts, but unfortunately that isnt what
you are going to get. Emphasize your
long-term goals, and you will come out on
top. Think positively and work with people
and events.
Tonight: Where the crowds are.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHH
The time has come for you to do what you
do best -- lead. If you want to change your
direction or pace, you will be a lot happier if
you take responsibility. A partner could be
negative or threatening. Yes, my dear Goat,
you have what it takes.
Tonight: A must show.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHHH
Recognize that everyone has limits -- even
the broad-minded Aquarian. Someone
might actually be testing how much you
will take from him or her. You will want to
detach and decide the best path. Much
bubbles up.
Tonight: Go along with someone elses
plans.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHHH An
associate wants to make your life easier.
What is stopping you? Perhaps a discussion
establishing limits and obligations needs to
happen frst. The smart Fish will not get tied
up in anything uncomfortable.
Tonight: Be a duo.

MINNEAPOLIS The Min-
nesota Vikings traded Daunte
Culpepper to the Miami Dol-
phins on Tuesday, granting the
disgruntled quarterbacks wish
to leave the team after a subpar
season that ended with a serious
knee injury.
Vikings spokesman Tom West
conrmed the deal, but did not
give specics. Several media re-
ports say Minnesota received a
second-round pick in return.
The deal gives Culpepper the
out he wanted from Minnesota,
where he made the Pro Bowl
three times in seven seasons. But
his relationship with the organi-
zation had deteriorated swiftly
in recent weeks, when Culpep-
per said he felt unwanted.
The Dolphins declined to
conrm the deal.
Anything we do is contingent
on a player passing a medical
exam, said spokesman Harvey
Greene, who declined further
comment.
Culpepper is coming off a sub-
par season that ended Oct. 30,
when he tore three ligaments in
his knee during a game against
Carolina. In seven games, he
threw six touchdowns and 12
interceptions.
A deal had been in the works
since the middle of last week,
when Culpepper requested to
be traded or released from his
contract. Culpepper said then
that he was upset by the tone of
an e-mail sent to him from the
Vikings front ofce, but would
not give details.
He said he appreciated that
the teams new owner, Zygi
Wilf, was willing to pay him a
$6 million bonus due later this
month.
However, because of the
fundamental differences I have
with management regarding the
approach to my personal and
professional life, I think it is the
best business decision for both
parties to go our separate ways,
Culpepper said then.
The Vikings moved swiftly
to accommodate Culpepper,
speaking to the Dolphins and
Raiders, among other teams.
The trade marks the end of
an era for the Vikings, who rose
to unprecedented popularity in
Minnesota thanks in large part
to Culpepper throwing long
passes to Randy Moss.
The Vikings shipped Moss to
the Raiders before last season,
and now have completed the
house-cleaning by sending Cul-
pepper to Miami, which made
getting a quarterback one of the
teams highest priorities heading
into free agency.
The Dolphins also spoke
to free agent Drew Brees, but
didnt want to pay the high price
he was asking after shoulder
surgery. Shortly after the Cul-
pepper deal was announced, the
New Orleans Saints said they
agreed to a six-year contract
with Brees.
Culpepper has his own injury
concerns coming off the horric
knee injury against the Panthers.
Even before the injury, Culpep-
per had fallen out of favor with
fans in Minnesota during the Vi-
kings 2-5 start.
Veteran Brad Johnson took
over when Culpepper went
down, helping the Vikings to a
7-2 nish.
The Vikings were under pres-
sure to deal Culpepper before
the end of the month, or they
would have been forced to pay
an unhappy and injured player
the $6 million bonus that was
negotiated after the 2004 sea-
son.
Wilf said he was prepared
to the pay the bonus, but with
Culpeppers relationship with
new coach Brad Childress get-
ting off on a sour note, the team
relented to Culpeppers trade
demands.
The relationship was strained
partly because Culpepper re-
fused the Vikings request that he
rehab in the Twin Cities and get a
jump on learning Childress ver-
sion of the West Coast offense.
That, and the uncertainty that
he would be back in time for
the opening of next season, was
enough for the Vikings.
Provided Culpepper passes
the Dolphins exam, it will bring
to a close an up-and-down sev-
en years as the Vikings starting
quarterback.
He burst onto the scene in
2000 in his rst year as a starter,
throwing for nearly 4,000 yards
and 33 touchdowns to help lead
the Vikings to the NFC Cham-
pionship game. But that season
was washed away with an em-
barrassing 41-0 loss to the Gi-
ants in the Meadowlands.
Culpepper had his nest sea-
son in 2004, completing nearly
70 percent of his passes with 39
touchdowns and a 110.9 rating.
Only Peyton Mannings record-
setting season kept Culpepper
from the MVP award.
It all came crashing down last
season, rst with Culpeppers
considerable struggles on the
eld and the infamous Lake
Minnetonka boat party scan-
dal. Culpepper and three other
teammates were charged with
several misdemeanors for al-
leged lewd conduct on the boat.
Culpepper has proclaimed his
innocence and vowed to ght
them in court.

ST. LOUIS - The remaking
of the St. Louis Rams defense
continued Tuesday when
the team signed free-agent
cornerback Fakhir Brown to a
ve-year contract.
Brown is expected to add
depth to a defensive backeld
that was hurt last season by
injuries and inexperience.
Brown, 28, played in 12 games
for the New Orleans Saints in
2005, starting four. He had 31
tackles and six passes de-
fended, along with four special
teams tackles.
In six seasons, he has 202
tackles, three interceptions, 46
passes defended, four forced
fumbles and three fumble
recoveries.
In a little over a week, the
Rams have made three moves
seeking to improve a defense
that ranked 30th in the NFL in
2005.
St. Louis also signed vet-
eran defensive tackle LaRoy
Glover to a three-year contract
and free-agent safety Corey
Chavous to a ve-year con-
tract.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
PHILADELPHIA Terrell
Owens is free to play for any
team willing to have him.
The Philadelphia Eagles re-
leased the exiled Owens on
Tuesday, ending a tumultuous,
two-year relationship with the
wide receiver.
Owens was due a $5 million
roster bonus on Wednesday, so
the Eagles had to cut him or
trade him before then to avoid
paying him the money.
The move was a formality be-
cause Owens was kicked off the
team in November following a
series of incidents and infrac-
tions, including repeated criti-
cism of quarterback Donovan
McNabb.
The Eagles announced the
cut in a one-sentence statement.
Team offcials said they would
not comment.
The Eagles gave Owens and
his agent, Drew Rosenhaus,
permission to talk with other
teams in January. The former
All-Pro met with the Denver
Broncos. Miami and Dallas re-
portedly have interest in Owens,
and Kansas City president Carl
Peterson has said hed consider
giving him a one-year, incentive-
laden deal.
Owens helped the Eagles
reach the Super Bowl in his frst
season in Philadelphia, but his
problems started when he de-
manded a new contract just one
year into a seven-year, $48.97
million deal.
He criticized management,
feuded with McNabb, violated
team policies and eventually was
banished seven games into last
season. An arbitrator upheld the
Eagles decision to suspend Owens
without pay for four games and de-
activate him the fnal fve games.
Owens was set to earn base
salaries of $770,000 plus $7.5
million in bonuses in 2006, $5.5
million in 2007, $6.5 million in
2008, $7.5 million in 2009, and
$8.5 million in 2010.
Its unlikely hell get a similar
deal from another team.
The Eagles were 17-5 in
games Owens played, including
playoffs, and 4-9 without him.
They fnished 6-10 last year,
missing the playoffs for the frst
time since 1999.
Owens came to the Eagles
after eight often controver-
sial seasons in San Francisco
with a reputation for being a
playmaker. However, his self-
ish behavior and famboyant
touchdown celebrations often
overshadowed his performance
on the feld.
He caught 77 passes for
1,200 yards and 14 touch-
downs in 2004, and made a
valiant return from ankle sur-
gery to play in Philadelphias
loss to New England in the
Super Bowl.
From there, it was downhill.
Owens took his first verbal
shot at McNabb last April,
suggesting the five-time Pro
Bowl quarterback was tired in
the fourth quarter against the
Patriots.
McNabb responded harshly
and the two didnt speak for a
prolonged period in training
camp. They briefy reconciled
their relationship and performed
well together on the feld Ow-
ens had 47 catches for 763 yards
and six TDs in seven games last
year.
Owens was sent home for
one week from training camp
last August after a heated dis-
pute with coach Andy Reid that
followed a shouting match with
then-offensive coordinator Brad
Childress.
Owens also annoyed the Ea-
gles by breaking the dress code
on road trips, parking in coach-
es spots at the teams practice
facility and sleeping through
one team meeting, not bringing
his playbook to another and re-
fusing to open the playbook at
another meeting.
In early November, the team
had enough of Owens antics af-
ter he again criticized McNabb,
called the organization class-
less and fought with former
teammate Hugh Douglas.
One day after the Eagles
told him to go home for good,
a contrite Owens pleaded for
another chance in a public apol-
ogy outside his home in Moore-
stown, N.J., but the team was
unmoved.
A fve-time Pro Bowl receiv-
er, Owens has 716 catches for
10,535 yards and 103 touch-
downs, including two rush-
ing scores, in 10 seasons in the
NFL.
By BRETT MARTEL
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW ORLEANS Free-
agent quarterback Drew Brees
agreed to a six-year contract
Tuesday with New Orleans, pro-
viding the Saints with a proven
replacement for Aaron Brooks.
Brees is a bit of a question
mark after injuring his throw-
ing shoulder with San Diego in
the fnal game of the season. He
underwent surgery and said last
weekend he will take four or
fve months to be ready.
That could account for the
terms of the contract, which
guarantees money only in the
frst year. The deal calls for the
Saints to pay Brees about $60
million over the life of the con-
tract, including a $10 million
bonus up front and a $12 mil-
lion option in the second year.
Drew was suffciently im-
pressed with the organization
and the head coach in New Or-
leans, said Brees agent, Tom
Condon. New Orleans was also
very comfortable with the risk-
reward, based on his rehabilita-
tion from the injury, and Miami
didnt have that same level of
comfort, so New Orleans made
a lot of sense for us.
Brooks is expected to be re-
leased by New Orleans after his
worst season since taking over
as the Saints starter in 2000.
With Brees as their starting
quarterback, the pressure is
off the Saints to use the No. 2
choice in the draft on Southern
Californias Matt Leinart, who
is expected to be available with
Reggie Bush, the likely No. 1 se-
lection by Houston.
New Orleans, which has lost
top center LeCharles Bentley
and cornerback Fakhir Brown
to free agency, could choose an-
other player or dangle their pick
as trade bait for teams who covet
the opportunity to take Leinart,
the 2004 Heisman winner.
