Phone dead? No problem.
Charging stations wereinstalled on the Lawrence and
Edwards campus during winter
break. he installation was an
initiative o Student Senate andKU Inormation echnology.
he project was one o 12 di-erent items on KUniteds plat-
orm this past year. BrandonWoodard, student body vice
president, said that this project
was made a priority because the
idea came rom the students.You dont leave your phone
at home; everyone has a phone,
Woodard said.
Rachel Brasher, a senior romOzawkie, said she thinks the sta-
tions will be helpul or stu-
dents.
I know Im never respon-sible about charging my phone,
Brasher said.
Robbie Bondi, a sophomore
rom Leawood, said he wontneed to use the charging stations
because he charges his phone at
night.Once KU I agreed to und the

So this is lie in the Border ColdWar.
Te cloud o black and yellow
lied rom Lawrence only to reveal
gray skies. No enemy to ght, just
angry mobs with nothing to torch.And looking to the west, citizens
o Manhattan have never attempted
a sneak attack on Lawrence.Maybe that would spice up the
Kansas-Kansas State rivalry, but it
might be a tad dramatic. Instead
the University o Kansas is le withthe Little Apple and a daunting
task: Commit to a rivalry that has
been one-sided since its inception.
Not that one institution hasdominated the other, but one
school only ocused on its ellow
in-state competitor while the other
looked in the opposite direction ora challenge.
Kansas has been Kansas States
rival since Ive been in the league,
Kansas baseball coach Ritch Pricesaid. Our rival has been Missouri.
Tats now being reocused.Price echoes a rededication that
has been the ocus o Kansas ath-letics department since Missouris
departure rom the Big 12, and its
one that began at the top.
It started with Sheahon Zenger,Price said o Kansas Athletics Di-
rector. He has made it clear to
everyone who coaches, regardless
o the sport, that hes going to start
evaluating programs based on their
success against Kansas State.
When asked about this policy,Zenger said programs are evaluat-
ed on conerence competition, not
just deeating one school.
Either way, theres a school 80miles down the road thats begin-
ning to receive a lot more atten-tion rom Kansas ans. And while
it has been more cordial in the past,Wildcat ans have become a new
target or a an base without its
natural rival.
I never elt that way againstK-State, Kansas mens basketball
coach Bill Sel said o the Jayhawks
animosity or Missouri. I think
this will turn a little bit to becomemore heated as we move orward.
For some Kansas programs, there
wont be much o a transition.
Te womens volleyball teams atKansas and K-State, or instance,
boast many players rom within the
state. Tat adds to a match that Jay-hawks coach Ray Bechard said has
always been important to the team.
Bechard said the amiliarity o
in-state players intensies the driveto capture Kansas bragging rights.
But those other programs, the
ones that recruit more out-o-state
players, theyll be at the center o arivalry that has become more im-
portant with the absence o Mis-
souri.
You might have people that goto a contest not because o the game
but because its K-State, Kansas
womens basketball coach Bonnie
Henrickson said. Maybe theyre
not a particular an o any givensport, but theyre a an o booing
K-State.
Maybe, but maybe not. Zenger
said the Missouri and K-State ri-valries have diferent geneses. Over
time they have evolved in diferent
ways.
Price will be combating that bycoaching his players to bring the
level o competitiveness the Jay-
hawks show against Missouri to all
games against K-State. Price knowsyou cant replace Missouri, yet he
can change the way Jayhawk ans
look at K-State.When youve coached at KU, re-
gardless o the sport, or 100 years
the rivalry has been rst and ore-
most about Missouri, Price said.Now that theyve le the Big 12
conerence, I think youll see the
rivalry between KU and K-State
intensiy.It might take a while to get used
to, but purple is the new black.

Celebrating its 50th anniversary,
a message o equality and tolerancerang through Strong Hall and theKansas Union yesterday to com-memorate Martin Luther King Jr.Day.
he Universitys celebration oMLK stressed that his passionatemessage is more than a historicalholiday, but is instead symbolic totodays belies towards civil rights.
Distinguished English ProessorMaryemma Graham opened theUniversitys event by reading romthe Letter rom Birmingham Jail.
o live in a society that is rela-tively ree o poverty, o social injus-tice, o racial discrimination, wevegot a lot o work to do, Grahamsaid. We remember people whogave their lives to that kind owork.
Graham believes that MartinLuther King Jr. Day and similarevents are about both looking at thepast and using that history to gaugeactions in the uture. She hopes thathonoring Rev. Martin Luther KingJr. will spark a discussion aboutwhat his belies symbolize in the21st century.
Are we the post-race genera-tion? Graham said. Are we thepost-eminist generation? Are wethe post-you-name-it? Is all thatover and done with? We cant justassume that everybody is on thesame page.
In years past, the University host-ed a large celebration that would illthe Lied Center. Fred Rodriguez,vice provost or diversity and equity,hoped that yesterdays celebration
would set a precedent or honoringthose social issues.
We want to start this traditionagain on campus, Rodriguez said.
Ater Grahams reading, orga-nizers distributed candles, andthe crowd walked to a receptionand program at the Kansas Union.Rodriguez expects attendees to askthemselves who carries on as theadvocate or equality o opportu-nity as the voice o Kings messagetoday.
Blane Harding, director o mul-ticultural aairs, who gave the key-note address, ocused on the indi-vidual and what every person mustdo to live up to Kings dream.
Every single individual in soci-ety has to be aware o the respon-sibilities o moving us orward sothat we are equal, so that we are asociety devoid o racism or preju-dice, Harding said. We do thatindividually, we do that through
relationships we dont do that byenacting laws.
Harding believes Kings messageo tolerance and ighting oppres-sion transcends race and applies toreligion, gender, sexual orientationand all other orms o prejudice.Yesterdays program was intendedto spark a discussion and encourageattendees to take personal responsi-bility to create a tolerant society.
No ones going to make you goto an event in black history month,or example, Harding said. Buti you truly believe in the idea oequality, you need to expand thatcomort zone so that you can meetolks that you generally would notmeet.

After being on hiatus for more
than a month, the investigation
into Beta Theta Pis alleged ani-
mal cruelty is set to resume with
the start of the semester. Police
inquiry into the matter has tem-
porarily been on hold because
some of the students involved
have been out of Lawrence due
to winter break.
In December, The Kansas
City Star, Lawrence Journal-
World, and The Huffington
Post reported that a turkey was
abused and killed at the fra-
ternitys annual Turkey Pull
party on the Friday after finals
week.
Those people that were
really involved in the major-
ity of it, I dont think weve
had any contact with yet, said
Trent McKinley, public affairs
sergeant for the Lawrence Police
Department. We still would
like to talk to anyone thats will-
ing to visit with us about what
they saw and maybe who they
think is responsible.
McKinley said alcohol
was involved in the incident.
However, McKinley was uncer-
tain of what kind of animal
cruelty charges, if any, would
be filed. The charges can range
from a misdemeanor to felony
offenses. Although no arrests
have been made, McKinley said
a report would most likely be
filed to the district attorneys
office within 30 days.
Just because class starts on
Tuesday doesnt mean everyone
is going to have time to visit with
us first thing Tuesday morning,
McKinley said. This isnt a mat-
ter of rounding pe ople up.
University spokesperson Jill
Jess said the university expects
anyone with information about
this incident to cooperate fully.
Behavior such as that report-
ed is reprehensible and is not
what KU would expect from its
students, Jess said.

Board of Regents updates
college admission standardsProspective students will
have to step up academically if
they want to be admitted to the
University of Kansas.
For the high school classes of
2013 and 2014, these prospective
students will have to meet the
current admission requirements.
Starting in the fall of 2015,
incoming freshmen must meet
requirements that the Kansas
Board of Regents has set in place
for public colleges across the
state.
For Kansans, incoming fresh-
men must complete the KansasQualified Admissions (QA) cur-
riculum, have a 2.0 GPA and at
least a 21 ACT score, or rank in
the top third of their graduating
class. Out of state students must
have a 2.5 GPA and a 24 on their
ACT or rank in the top third of
their graduating class.
The University wants to take
these requirements a step higher
as a part of the Bold Aspirations
initiative. For Kansas high
school students graduating in
2016 who hope to attend the
University, they must complete
the QA curriculum with a 2.0
GPA, and have a 3.0 overall GPA
and a 24 ACT score or a 3.25
overall GPA and a 21 ACT score.
Non-residents must complete
the QA curriculum with a 2.5
GPA, and have a 3.0 overall GPA
and a 24 ACT score or a 3.25
overall GPA and a 21 ACT score.
Lisa Pinamonti, director of
admissions at the University, said
the whole goal of Bold Aspirations
is to assert the University as the
established research university it
is.
We are the flagship unive rsity,
and the academic requirement at
KU doesnt measure the admis-
sions, Pinamonti said.
The first-year retention rateof freshmen in 2010 was nearly
80 percent, meaning that of the
3,491 students who were fresh-
men in the fall, only 2,790 came
back for their sophomore years
a loss of 701 students.
Weve been working with
high school counselors, and the
feedback we are getting from
counselors and students is that
they say its important we are
doing this, Pinamonti
said. But some students are wary
about taking four years of high
school math.
The acceptance rate in 2010
for KU was 93 percent, and
Pinamonti hopes it will remain
high.We want to get students
excited about not everyone get-
ting in, Pinamonti said. Were
getting the message out to high
school students to better prepare
for college and know the impor-
tance of being prepared.

project, it worked with KUnitedto ensure that 15 charging sta-
tions would be installed by thebeginning of the spring 2013
semester. Currently, there are
14 on the Lawrence campus and
one on the Edwards campus,and five more stations will be
installed at either location dur-
ing the semester, depending on
students suggestions.Each charging unit costs
about $300, and the project
costs a total of $6,000. Anne
Madden Johnson, managerfor Client Consulting at KU
IT, said IT employees look
for more ways to provide new
services directly to students,and the charging stations are
an inexpensive way to get stu-
dents something they wanted.Everyone lives and dies
with their device anymore,
Johnson said.
Each charging station is
mounted on the wall andincludes eight different charg-
ing cords, including two
iPhone compatible cords, one
iPhone 5 cord, two Blackberrycords and three Samsung and
Android compatible cords.
Students, faculty and staff
may use the charging stationsat any time for free. There is
a tray at the bottom of the
charging station that will hold
the device while it is being
charged. The tray is not sturdy
enough to hold a laptop, but it
can support an iPad or any other
tablet.KU IT is working with stu-
dent leaders and taking sugges-
tions for improvements for the
remaining five stations. Ideasmay be posted on its Facebook
page at facebook.com/kutech-

Te timbre o the ute cadenza
at the end o Symphonic Sketches
rom Leonard Bernsteins West Side
Story gave pre-pharmacy majorConnor Bowman a sense o warmth
whenever he heard it played by the
KU Symphonic Orchestra (KUSO)
in Lawrence or Kansas City, Mo.
Te cadenza signaled the
death o ony, the Romeo-esque
protagonist in the Shakespeare-
inspired musical, aer he was shot
realizing his love, Maria, was still
alive. Bowman, a sophomore rom
Lenexa, listened to this not rom the
audience, but rom the stage as the
principal utist in the orchestra.
Im the only one playing, and
that eeling is really cool, said
Bowman, who is also working
toward a music minor. Teres
a moment when it resonated
throughout the hall. I just stopped
to take it in: embodying death inront o the audience.
Its not very common to have
a non-music major play a solo
or serve as the leader o an
instrumental section in an audition
ensemble at the University. In act,
less than 10 percent o the KU
audition ensembles are non-music
majors.
Te audition process is the
same process during the rst week
o class, said David Neely, the
director o orchestral activities.
Music majors are required to be in
one o the ensembles, but you dont
need to be a music major to be a
part o it. Its a matter o passing the
audition.
Neely said KUSO has a heavy
practice workload and that themusic and class is geared toward
music majors. However, auditions
are blind and seating is decided
by the quality o the auditions.
By achieving the principal seat,
Bowman said the judges thought
he played the best ute audition.
It could mean that we dont eel
the same pressure as music majors,
Bowman said. Were doing it or
enjoyment, and we do it because its
something that we love to do.
BAnd for non-mAjors
Sharon oulouse, assistant
director o bands, said some
music students also play in
multiple ensembles with primary
and secondary instruments.
Band has two ensembles that are
audition-only: Wind Ensemble
and Symphonic Band. Tose
two also have blind auditions.
We dont care i you are a
music major or not, oulouse
said. Even i that doesnt work,
theres the opportunity to be in
University Band.
Tis is a no-audition, sign-up
ensemble that perorms once
every semester. Music majors
only ll ve to 10 percent o the
University Band seats. Te Kansas
Marching Band is also a non-
audition group.
Its not about what your major
is, its about do you love playing,
oulouse said.
Holly Good, a sophomore inchemistry rom Shawnee still eels
nostalgic or her time playing ute
and piccolo in high school, but now
plays in University Band.
I miss playing in a group, Good
said. Tis is just an hour once a
week, not a big time commitment.
She took University Band or no
credit because to her, it was un and
relaxing.
Sometimes Im stressed out
when I come in, but it takes your
mind o things, Good said.
Parker Riley, a reshman in
computer science, plays saxophone
in University Band.
Ive played or eight years, and I
wanted to keep playing, Riley said.I knew it just wouldnt overload
my schedule. I havent had to
practice too much or this music. I
just enjoy it.
non-mAjor orchestrA onhorizon
Nothing is ofcial yet, but
Neely said there could be more
opportunities or non-music
majors who want to join orchestra
in the uture.
One o the things were looking
at are options or some kinds o
ensembles or non-major students,
Neely said.
Right now, KUSO is the onlydepartmental orchestra ensemble.
It would probably be good,
Bowman said. I dont know i it
would get people to go to more
lessons and things like that. But I
think its a good idea.

he previous three weeks
let ten murdered and
three wounded, but nogunshots were ired on Oct. 23,
2002. It was just my ninth birth-
day. I lived in Centreville, Va.,where a 20-mile ride down theBeltway led to the nations capi-
tal. And there, in the suburbs o
reedom, I learned ear. But no
one died on my ninth birthday there was only a message released
by the Chie o Police on behal
o the Beltway sniper.
It elt like I had aged ar
beyond the candles on my cakelet on. I couldnt play reeze tag
outside with my riends or roller-
blade down the block. Field trips
were cancelled, my soccer seasonwas cancelled, Halloween was
cancelled. My whole world was
being held at gunpoint, and we
were giving in to every demand.
here were new procedures, new
restrictions, new ways o lie. We
had to be prepared because wewerent sae anywhere.
he news anchors called him
the Beltway sniper, but we didntknow i it was one man or 20.
One day, someone was shot ata Shell gas station in Maryland.
Another day, it was a woman
in the parking lot o my local
Home Depot. Anyone could havebought that gun. Anyone could
have been the kil ler. Anyone
could have been the woman lyingdead on a gravel parking lot.
Anyone could have been the hus-
band weeping over bloodstained
grocery bags and his best riendslieless corpse. But the sniper had
a right to own his gun; no one
could deny that.
Within a ew weeks, I went
rom believing in Santa to barely
believing in God. I learned that
my dad wasnt really a superhero
he waited in his car until theD.C. transit bus arrived every
day instead o standing at the
stop like a sitting duck. I stopped
thinking I had a sae learningenvironment ater a 13-year-old
boy was shot and killed enter-
ing his middle school. I grew up
too ast. And at the same time, Iknow there will always be a part
o me that wont ever grow up;
a part that will wish my parents
could always be there to check
or the monsters under my bed,
and to protect me rom the onesin the movie theatres and the
elementary schools and the shop-
ping malls and the beltways.But as a country, we learned
to be saer so that we couldaccommodate their rights.
We put metal detectors in our
schools and made Code Red
drills and lockdowns as rou-tine as saying the Pledge o
Allegiance. And I learned to deal
with it, too. I stopped sleeping, so
I could always be alert. I stoppedtrusting people. I tried my hard-
est to block out a ew years o
my childhood. And now I see
a therapist to work through myproblems. Insomnia. Anxiety.
Depression.
Its been over ten years since
my town came under attack,
but the story repeats itsel every
day. And every day, there are
new victims, and not just theones in the caskets. here are
kids in Newtown who saw their
playmates die and still have togo back to school, and parentswho have to let them. here are
teenagers in Overland Park who
will be araid to go outside when
concealed carry laws pass. hereare amendments or gun owner-
ship, but none or mental health,
happiness and comort. And so
Ill make each day a little saer, asa slave to my ear and a slave to
my reedom.

I youre relatively up to
date on things that dont
matter, you know about the
photos o Justin Bieber alleg-edly smoking marijuana and
the nonsensical blathering that
quickly ollowed in the media.When the ethical journalism
pioneers at MZ broke the
story a ew weeks ago, a gaggle
o internet trolls started the hor-rendous #cutorbieber trend
on witter, posing as dedicated
beliebers vowing to employ
sel-harm in protest o the popstars supposed ainity or
smoking weed. his turned an
otherwise unsurprising photo
leak a child star doing drugs,whodathunk it? into a world-
wide debacle that had world
leaders and CEOs lying sleepless
in bed each night or weeks.Now, to be air, there really
hasnt been any solid conir-
mation that Bieber was actu-
ally getting high or, in otherwords, coughing uncontrollably
because its his irst time on
the evening the photos were
taken. But the slow-burningobject stowed between his in-
gers looks like a blunt, which
just so happens to be rolled
appropriately thin enough or a
pop star sporting a pompadourhaircut.
hats suicient evidence
or most people who eel as itheyre obligated to oer up
nuggets o sage-like advice,
such as Stop hanging out with
those guys in the lat-billedhats, and Go to rehab. Most
o them oer it with the best o
intentions: hey want Biebs
to continue being a good rolemodel, which one apparently
can accomplish by writing songs
or seventh graders to awkward-
ly grind dance to in dimly-lit
basements. hey want Bieber to
stay ocused on his hits the
ones involving pop charts, not
a bong.hats good advice, really.
However, i Bieber liked listen-
ing to good advice, he probablywouldnt have sparked up a J
while some random groupie
with a phone started snapping
pictures right in ront o hisace. Nonetheless, he still prob-
ably needs some advice on how
to move on, but dont bank on
him opting or the good advice.So, in case he needs it, heres
some bad advice: Why not use
this situation as a stepping stone
into the lazy, yet lucrative genreo modern stoner music?
It shouldnt be a hard transi-
tion, which is ideal i youre
going to be getting baked allday, anyway. hey dont make
the stoner-avorites like theyused to; you used to have to be
musically talented and innova-tive like Grateul Dead, Sublime,
Cypress Hill and other stoner-
music pioneers. Nowadays, all
you really have to do is latchonto the coattails o the suc-
cessul artists who came beore
you and essentially do whatever
they did, but with dierent lyr-ics. You want to try your hand
at todays stoner rap, Biebs? As
long as you mention that youre
stoney baloney once every two
sentences, you can get away
with rapping about the debt
ceiling and high schoolers will
still hotbox their 96 Camrys toit every day. Your stellar record
sales wont miss a beat.
he persona o a stoner music
sensation is a lot less complexthese days, too. ake a bunch
o black-and-white photos with
a stare that says Im rich, bro,
while a robust, mushroom-shaped plume o smoke bil-
lows slowly rom your lips like
youre Notorious B.I.G. hen,start perorming at Bonnarooeach year and make sure you
get charged with marijuana
possession at least once a year
apparently, i youre not onprobation these days, youre not
a legit stoner rapper.
he only real way that can
go wrong is i you violate yourprobation and have to do a
ew months in prison. Youre a
celebrity, though, and they cant
really throw you in with the resto the ruians, so it should be
a cakewalk. When a reporter
comes to interview you, just
say youre working on a newrecord and itll automatically
become the most anticipated
record o the year. Worked or
Lil Wayne; his irst post-prisonalbum in 2010 was garbage, yet
he still cashed in.
Your new ans wont orgetabout you, either. #FreeBieber
will probably trend on witter
every day until your release, and
believe me, thats a ar betterhashtag than #cutorbieber.

Heroes are crashing beoreus. In less than a week, we
ound the celebration sur-
rounding Notre Dame linebacker
a hoax and the acclaim surround-ing 7-time our de France winner
Lance Armstrong a raud.
eo should be ne intelli-
gence is not a prerequisite or play-ing linebacker in the NFL. In act,
with the controversy surroundinghead trauma in ootball, maybe less
brainpower is better.Armstrong aces a steep climb,
steeper than the French Alps he
ascended while racing. I admired
Armstrong when he raced. And Iadmire him or his public cones-
sion.
I cannot imagine a more bor-
ing sport to watch on televisionthan cycling, but during his string
o victories I tuned-in to watch the
our de France, i only or a ew
minutes.In 2001, I watched some o the
race and witnessed a moment in
sports I will never orget. Arm-
strong led the race with Jan Ullrichclosely behind. As they climbed the
mountainous terrain, Ullrich took
a nasty spill of the side. Insteado increasing his lead, Armstrongdismounted his bike and waited or
Ullrich to recover and rejoin the
race. Te spectacle gave me chills;
I had never seen sportsmanship soprecisely displayed.
I dont question Armstrong the
athlete. Doping is not a secret in
cycling. Its not part o the culture;it is the culture. I wonder about
Armstrong the human. Arm-
strongs transgression was not dop-
ing. Armstrongs greatest crime isthe lies he told to cover his darkest
secret. Now he must make amends
or the lives he destroyed in the
wake o his deception.Now that Armstrong conessed,
however, we can no longer viliy
him. Tats how it works. Whenone seeks orgiveness, the properprotocol is to orgive. Granted,
Armstrong must heed important
stipulations: when one seeks or-
giveness, one must commit himsel
to righting his wrong. An apology,or conession, is not simply saying,
Im sorry. Its about changing ones
behavior and lessening the damage
done.I am condent Armstrong will
do this. Te magnitude o his con-
ession leaves no other option.
Viliying Armstrong is symp-tomatic o something more. Many
eel let down, even betrayed, when
athletes, celebrities, or politicians
transgress a storyline we ourselvesweave (oten with the help o the
media). Some people protest that
these groups should not be seen as
heroes in the irst place. Instead,some argue, we should look to
history, religion and education
to ind true heroes, like Martin
Luther King Jr., Neil deGrasse
yson and Jesus.I say we choose none o the
above as heroes. Instead, we lookto ourselves and be our own he-
roes.
Finding inspiration in others is
part o lie. Revering and placingthem on pedestal is not. Humans
are perectly imperect. And no
one will ever have the power to save
you. Only you can do that. In thegreat dream o lie, we must write
our own story and play the lead
character.
Dont look to others to pave yourway. Pave your own way. Others
will join you on your path. I some-
one wants to divert you, they werenot meant or your journey.

One of the best things about
fashion is the ability to experiment
with clothing. Several people may
purchase the same item, and yet
they may all wear it completely
differently. Those differences are
what style is all about.
Despite varieties in personal
style, there is certainly one article
of clothing that I believe all
women should own. Its flattering
for any body type, can be worn
in an infinite amount of ways,
can be purchased at an array of
prices and is appropriate for an
endless amount of events. What
is this mystery piece, you ask?
A pair of good jeans, maybe,
or perhaps a nice pair of black
pumps? While those are very
good guesses and should
also be closet staples my
first and foremost must-have
item is a classic black blazer.
A blazer? How boring, you
say. But you are so wrong.
A black blazer is the most
versatile article of clothing
so far in existence even
better than a pair of perfect
fitting jeans. Where jeans
are inappropriately casual, a
blazer is not. And you may
be incorrectly convinced that
a blazer is too fancy for
places where jeans would
come in handy, but with
the right technique, it canbe worn anywhere.
My favorite way
to blaze, if you will, is
oversized with a mini
skirt or short shorts
hiding beneath. The
jacket is always a tad
longer than whats
under it, and a blouse is
buttoned all the way to
the top to balance out
showing off the leg. A
small clutch and heel and its
weekend perfection.
Blazers are so crucial
right now, that even the
latest Glamour magazine
gave them a shout out. The
scoop: Each body type has
a special blazer shapedfor them. For flat-chested
girls, aim for a blazer with
a structured shoulder.
Feminine detailed jackets
work best for those with
broad shoulders, and longer
blazers look best on petite
gals who lack in the height
department. There are so
many shapes, patterns and
colors to choose from.
This closet
must-have goes for men, too. The
hoodie-blazer combo is totally
unisex friendly, though I wouldnt
say the same for the high-waisted
skirt and blouse sequence.

If one genre reigns supreme in
2013, it will be the science fictionfilm. Sci-fi flicks are in high supply
this year, from original, promi-nently effects-powered stories to
several thought-provoking block-busters that have strong chances
for awards season. Here are a few
you wont want to miss:
ObliviOn April 19Co-writer/director Joseph
Kosinski constructed one of the
most visually satisfying and flat-
out cool sci-fi action fil ms in recent
memory with TRON: Legacy.In his sophomore effort, he takes
on an original concept involving
a human-evacuated Earth. TomCruise stars as one of the planets
last drone repairmen who discov-
ers an underground group of sur-
vivors as well as a much greaterthreat. I cant promise an overly
unique story, but it will certainly
be a grand feast for the eyes.
StAr trek intO DArkneSS
MAy 17Theres a reason FX plays the
Star Trek reboot all the time: Itsso perfectly entertaining that it
never gets old. The only aspect l ack-
ing a bit is the villain. This seems
resolved in the sequel, as British
badass Benedict Cumberbatchplays a dastardly opponent whos
destroying Starfleet from with-
in, leading Captain Kirk and theEnterprise crew on an epic fight
for retribution. With J.J. Abrams at
the helm again, this should be even
more dazzling than the first one.The final frontier never looked so
promising.
pAciic riM July 12Creature master Guillermo delToro returns to the directors chair
with a project of enormous scopeand the simplest categorization:
giant monster movie. Better yet, its
exactly the kind your inner-child
has been dying to see ever sinceyou stopped watching Godzilla
films: humongous robots vs. gar-
gantuan monsters. Seriously, whats
not to like? Even if that sounds silly,del Toro is an excellent filmmaker
whos guaranteed to turn this guilty
pleasure premise into a righteously
awesome spectacle.
elySiuM Aug. 9South African wnderkind
Neill Blomkamp surprised every-
one with his mind-blowing debut,District 9, creating one of the
most unique, meaningful and vis-ceral sci-fi movies ever made. Well,
imagine that on steroids with a
dystopian future instead of aliens
and youve got his follow-up,Elysium. Matt Damon stars as a
man outfitted in crazy high-tech
weaponry on a mission to equalize
the playing field between the poor,living on a desolate Earth, and
the rich, living on a perfect-world
space station. Expect one intenselykick-ass ride.
grAvity Oct. 4Early test screening reports indi-
cate that this simple yet powerfulstory of two astronauts (Sandra
Bullock and George Clooney), lostin the abyss of space after their
shuttle is destroyed, trying to find
a way home before oxygen runs
out, is nothing short of revolution-
ary filmmaking. Alfonso Cuarn
(Children of Men) brings hissignature long takes the open-
ing shot alone lasts 17 minutes

youre in space, heres your ticket.

Think of the Sundance Film
Festivals shorts program as a
glimpse into the future of movies.Trevor Groth, director of
programming for the festival,knows the crystal-ball aspects
of Sundances shorts firsthand.He remembers the years both
Andersons work surfaced in the
pile of submissions. It still gives
him chills. Watching, you canfeel the future that is going to
unfold in front of them, Groth
says. From the beginning their
voices were that distinctive.Though you never know how
fate, or fickle audiences, will favor
them, the shorts filmmakers at
Sundance this year are an eclecticinternational bunch whose work
carries that sweet sense of dis-
covery. The programming teams
mantra show us something wevenever seen before has resulted
in a creative canvas of 65 shorts
infused with an irrepressiblesense of invention that is infec-
tious to watch.
Groth, who began his Sundance
career 20 years ago by helpingprogram shorts, will never forget
the moment when a studio exec
passed along an underground
video whose irreverent darkhumor and inherent weirdness
just spoke to him. Called The
Spirit of Christmas, it was by a
couple of unknowns Matt Stoneand Trey Parker before South
Park. Groth tracked down Stone
and Parker, nabbed their film for
the festival, and says it still standsfor him as a classic example of
how you can find the purest of
cinema in shorts there is no need
to compromise.Its easy to shortchange shorts
as merely stepping stones to the
real deal feature-length films. But
just as a short story is not a novelwith fewer pages, a short film is its
own beast. A great one requires a
rigorous discipline in storytell-
ing, masterful editing and a clearunderstanding of what exactly
you are trying to say. An inspired
idea doesnt hurt either.
This is why Groth loves to seeestablished filmmakers like Todd
Haynes and Neil LaBute come
back to the form again and again.
LaBute, for example, is creditedwith writing three shorts in 2012,
directing one, and contributing
a segment to last years Stars in
Shorts, which is exactly what the
title suggests all that while work-ing on three feature films in vari-
ous stages of production.Whether 2013 will uncover
any filmmakers, it certainly has
its share of wonderfully weird
shorts.Among my early favorites is the
existential animation piece Oh
Willy ... from Belgiums Marc
James Roels and Emma De Swaef.It unfolds during Willys return to
his most elemental self, specifical-
ly the nudist camp where he was
raised. The stuffed-cloth char-acters, constructed out of what
looks to be flesh-colored felt, tell a
modern-day story about mortal-
ity and the measure of a life. Its aquirky yet emotional piece about
a savage more pudgy than noble,
his bumbling indecision remark-
ably captured in meticulous stop-motion.
Two other animation pieces
that caught my eye Seraph and
Thank You could not be moredifferent in style or tone. Both
take provocative cuts at the ways
in which love leaves its mark:
a graphically rendered gay teenwho carves eyes into everything,
including flesh, and a snowman
whose heart literally melts for a
fire-tinged puppy.Sundances short shorts and
long shorts range from a few min-
utes to nearly 50; the average is
closer to 15. With so little time toplay with, a filmmaker cant afford
to squander a second, much less
a minute.
Los Angeles-based mixed-media artist Rachael Mayeri,
whose work more frequently
turns up in museums around
the world, the film is a wildly
provocative meta meditation onmedia, monkeys and humans
dressed as monkeys. Essentially
a soap opera about the social
dynamics of chimpanzees, it was
made for chimp consumption andplayed to the primate inhabitants
of Scotlands Edinburgh Zoo onTVs scattered around their space.
It is strangely funny, yet absorb-
ing to watch them watch and likeso many of the shorts, leaves you
pondering the implications long
after.
That audiences are increasinglyopen to embracing six minutes
of weird, as Sundances current
shorts programmer Jon Korn puts
it, is one of the more gratify-ing shifts he and co-programmer
Mike Plante have seen take place.
There are fewer shorts as calling
cards from feature director hope-fuls and more making the most
of a few minutes in the entries
the two personally screened dur-
ing the selection process this year
roughly 3,000 between them, arecord 8,127 submissions in all
screened by the team of eight.
Sundances democratic processhelps, literally anyone, can submit
a short for festival consideration.
And then there are the doc-
umentaries, typically the lon-gest of the shorts, often close to
the 50-minute cutoff. Among
the standouts is Outlawed in
Pakistan, tracing one girls fightagainst the rape that brought her,
not her attackers, a death sentence
by tribal elders.
The shorts are, quite simply,seductive; even the ones that dont
hit all the right notes are intrigu-
ing. As Korn says, Its great to
see something on its way to be ingsomething special.

Te Kansas cheerleading squadplaced sixth on Sunday during the
Universal Cheerleaders Association
Championship in Orlando, Fla.
Te Jayhawks improved thisyear aer nishing 10th in last
years competition. Te cheerlead-
ing squads two-and-a-hal minute
routine included two music por-tions and a cheer.
We were very excited, said se-
nior Jordan Snyder. Tis is a big
improvement rom last year. Wewere proud o our perormance
and we were happy with how we
were placed.
Te cheerleading squad was .7points short o earning a spot in the
top ve, which was the expectation
rom head coach Corey Stone andassistant coach Nami Stone.
Our long-term goal or the pro-
gram is to really be in the top three
consistently and in the top tier o
teams, Corey said. We didnt quiteget that, but we were close. Tere
were a lot o people who aer the
competition told us that they re-
ally liked our routine and were sur-prised we didnt place even a little
higher. Tat made us eel good that
we are getting close to where we
want to be in the top tier o teams.Despite being the head coach,
Corey credited his wie, Nami, or

most, Corey said. Shes at allthe practices, and she talks to the
squads the most aerward.
Te Rock Chalk Dancers also
made some noise in Orlando dur-ing the Universal Dance Associa-
tion this past weekend. Te dance
team nished ninth in the hip-
hop category among all Division Ischools.
Aer a two-year hiatus, the
dance team returned to the UDA
competition under rst-year coachRaquel Tomas. Tomas was hop-
ing her team could also place in
the top ve, but was excited to helpKansas make its return and com-
pete in nals.

ravis Releord racked his brain,
trying to recall the best sign hesseen at Bramlage Coliseum in his
our years at Kansas.
He had to give up.
Teres so many, Releord said.I cant even name one.
Now in his h and nal year o
eligibility, Releord has the privi-
lege o being subjected to one morenight o clever signs when the No. 3
Jayhawks ace No. 11 Kansas State
in Manhattan at 7 p.m.
He said the K-State game is just
another game on his teams sched-ule, as they try to win a ninth con-
secutive Big 12 title. But he did
concede that the ans and
media inate the gamesimportance.
Releord and the Jay-
hawks three other se-
nior starters should becomortable handling
the pressure o playing a
game that ans on both
sides o the rivalry nowview as Te Game.
But it will be a new experience
or one o Kansas most impor-
tant players redshirt reshman
Ben McLemore. Releord said
the upperclassmen take it upon
themselves to get McLemore and
the other Kansas rookiesprepared or the environ-
ment.
First, we tell the resh-
men how crazy its goingto be and to just not let the
ans get to you, Releord
said. Its going to be the
next best environmentto ours. Be expecting all
types o crazy chants; their
crowd really getting into it.
In past years, Kansas ans tendedto view K-State as the annoying
little brother while ocusing the
majority o their attention to the
other side o the border and the
Missouri igers. With the igersdeparture to the SEC, Kansas coach
Bill Sel said K-State takes over the
role Missouri le.
But the two rivalries have a vastlydiferent eel to him.
K-States always been the rival,
but I think it was more o a respect
rivalry than what Missouris was,
because I think on both sides o the
Missouri rivalry, there was a lot o
hatred that was involved, Sel said.I think this will turn a little bit to
become more heated as we move
orward because we dont have the
igers around, and they dont havethe igers around.
Te act that the Wildcats enter
tonights matchup ranked No. 11 in
the country adds uel to the rivalrysgrowing re. Its the third time in
the past our years both programs
entered the game ranked. For Sel,
thats a good thing.I dont mind our league being
good, and I certainly dont mind K-
State being good, Sel said. I would
much rather play a K-State teamthats ranked high than not play a
K-State team that isnt ranked.

Public not ready to forgive lying athletes
In the span of one week, two adored
athletes saw both of their reputationscrumble.
The truth shattered both Lance
Armstrongs and Notre Dame linebacker
Manti Teos legacies, leaving them andtheir public relations teams to pick up
the pieces. Hopefully, this can be a learn-
ing opportunity for other athletes: cover-
ing up a lie is always worse than tellingthe truth.
In the age of social media and smart-
phones, word travels fast. We are able
to find out about Lindsay Lohans arrestbefore she sobers up enough to find out
herself. However, this advanced informa-
tion sharing technology means that, if
you lie, you are lying to the entire world.It only takes one person to uncover the
truth before your entire lie is blown and
the whole world knows.
The truth is still pending in the
Manti Teo hoax story, in which hisdeceased girlfriend, who apparently
inspired him to miss tackles in the BCS
Championship, never actually existed.
Whether or not Teo perpetuated thehoax is still to be determined, but it
seems that at some point, Teo discovered
that his girlfriend was about as real as
the square root of a negative numberand, in his embarrassment, told a lie.
Understandable, right?
But when you or I get caught lying, we
have to apologize to a few people. Teohas to explain himself to everybody. Do
you think that Teo wishes that he publi-
cized the hoax as soon as he found out
rather than prolonged it with a lie? Idbet on the affirmative.
Meanwhile, Lance Armstrong juiced
up his legs to the point where his calves
looked like a Thanksgiving turkey. Thefact that Teo is getting most of the atten-
tion shows how strange his story is, but
Armstrongs lie is far more damning.
For years, Armstrong not only vehe-mently denied allegations of doping, but
also threatened lawsuits to anyone who
made those claims. He manipulated the
public by telling the press that the goodguys trying to uncover the truth were
actually the bad guys. At some point,
Armstrong should have realized that he
was never going to escape his past.If he had acted with more prudence
at an earlier time, he would have still
lost his records, but perhaps his charitys
reputation could have survived and his
brave fight against cancer would havebeen his legacy.
The public is willing to forgive many
things, but it is hesitant to forgive dis-
honesty. Let this be the lesson from thisbizarre week in sports.

Te spring semester is just be-
ginning, but the Jayhawk tennis
team got back to work early as itcaptured three ight victories this
weekend at the Clemson Winter
Indoor Classic hosted by the Uni-
versity o Clemson.For Kansas, this weekend
shined a light on some o the
teams strong points. Even though
the team didnt win a doublesight in this non-IA sanctioned
event, it beat a ranked LSU team
in two o three doubles matches.
It was also a bit o a bright spot orsingles play, as the team bagged
singles ights ve, six and eight.Tis tournament was the
rst action the Jayhawks haveseen since the San Diego State
Fall Classic in November, and it
showed, as Kansas was 5-8 in sin-
gles play and 3-7 in doubles play,winning three o the possible 12
ights. Te seeding or the ve-
team eld was done by a hidden
dual ormat, meaning the resultswould not count toward team
records, but would count or the
individuals.
Te level o competition in theeld had the potential to make
any team look rusty, as three o
the ve teams came into the tour-
nament in the IA team ranking
top 60: No. 22 Clemson, No. 45LSU and No. 55 ulane. Charles-
ton Southern and Kansas were
unranked when play started.
wo players in the eld wereranked in the IA top 125 in sin-
gles play, but the most important
player or Kansas last weekend
was junior Dylan Windom. Win-dom won her rst match against
Caroline Magnusson o ulane.
Ten she coupled with reshman
Maria Jose Cardona to deeatKaitlin Burns and Keri Franken-
berger o LSU in a terribly close
match, 8-6. Windom and Car-dona then exhausted Magnusson
and Caroline Tornton o ulane,
8-7 and 7-5.
While Windom was clutchthis weekend, Cardona has been
steadily improving in doubles
play throughout the season. In
November, she won in doubleswith senior Monica Pezzotti. Al-
though she didnt win any o her
singles matches last weekend, she
did win two in doubles play withWindom, proving her ability to
play well no matter the partner.
Te Jayhawks will look to build
of last weekends strong start asdual-play starts inside the Jay-
hawk ennis Center against Den-
ver University on Feb. 1 at 3 p.m.

shane southwell, guardCoach Bruce Weber gives 11 players at
least 10 minutes o playing time per game, soSouthwell has received only eight starts and
averages 21.5 minutes per game. His shoot-
ing sample is only about hal as large as most
o the Wildcats other starters, but he shoots52 percent rom the eld, including a 49 per-
cent mark rom three-point range.
angel rodriguez, guardRodriguez is second in the Big 12 with a2.16 assist-to-turnover ratio, behind only
his teammate Will Spradling. He was one o
our Wildcats that scored in double gures
Saturday against Oklahoma, but his nineassists were even more important. He also
recorded eight assists in the Wildcats rst
conerence game, a narrow 73-67 victory
against then-No. 22 Oklahoma State.
rodney mcgruder, guardTe only Wildcat to average in double
gures scoring, McGruder is third in the
Big 12 with 15.5 points per game. He has tocarry the oensive load i Kansas State is to
knock o the Jayhawks. He scored only ourpoints in the Wildcats loss to Gonzaga in
mid-December. He scored 16 points in theWildcats other loss against Michigan, but
he didnt heat up until the second hal.
will spradling, guardA product o Shawnee Mission South
High School, Spradling has been regardedas one o Kansas State most reliable three-
point threats during his past two years in
Manhattan. However, his consistency has al-
ways been his problem. Hes made less than35 percent o his three-point attempts this
year, which is actually a slight improve-
ment rom his sophomore campaign. He
is the conerences best protector o theball, as he sports a healthy 3.0 assist-to-
turnover ratio.
thomas gipson, forwardTe tallest Wildcat starter at 6 eet 7 inch-
es, Gipson leads Kansas State with 5.9 re-
bounds per game. His 48 oensive rebounds
are 16 more than Je Withey has on the
season, and 11 more than Kevin Youngstallied. Although hes undersized at 6 eet
7 inches, he weighs a bruising 270 pounds.
He could struggle against Witheys length
and Youngs motor. Gipson has turned theball over 29 times and has recorded only
our assists.

jeff withey, centerWithey was Kansas most consistent player
Saturday at exas, nishing with 14 points, nine
rebounds, our assists and three blocks, two o
which led to Kansas transition buckets. His 4.59
blocks per game is second in the country behindSt. Johns Chris Obekpa. His deense down low is
especially crucial while Kansas xes its oensive
struggles.
kevin young, forwardOne o the best glue guys in recent Kansas mem-
ory, Young hasnt proved to be a serious scoring
threat game in and game out, but the Jayhawks
dont need him to be. His biggest contributionduring conerence play has been his rebounding,
especially on the oensive end. Hes grabbed at
least two oensive rebounds in each o the Jay-
hawks last ve games. Grasping extra possessionswill be key against a Wildcat team that boasts the
conerences second-best rebounding margin.
elijah johnson, guardTe senior turned in a miserable shooting per-
ormance against exas, nishing one o 11 romthe oor. Coach Bill Sel said its only a matter
o time until his shots start alling, but Kansas
would benet rom that time coming soonerrather than later. Te Jayhawks have more scor-ing options this year than they did last year, but
reshman Ben McLemore could use another
threat on the perim
