CLUB SPORTS
Mary Hamilton, a sophomore from Bucyrus, practices at MoKan Lake with the University water skiing club, the Sprayhawks.
Twelve of the 36 members headed to El Centro, Calif., on Sunday to compete in the Collegiate Water Ski Nationals.
Te braided ski rope whipped
back into the 2008 Nautique, and
the boat driver threw the throttle
into neutral. Mary Hamilton, a
sophomore from Bucyrus, re-
leased the ropes handle and sunk
gracefully under the lakes sur-
face. In a tournament, Hamilton
would have been disqualifed for
this, but luckily it was only prac-
tice for the Sprayhawks, the Uni-
versitys water skiing club.
Last Friday, three members of
the Sprayhawks visited the pri-
vate docks of MoKan Lake, of
K-10, for one fnal practice of the
season. On Sunday, 12 of the 36
members headed out in an RV
to sunny El Centro, Calif. for the
Collegiate Water Ski Nationals.
Today they will compete in sla-
lom, trick and jump afer having
placed frst in the region at previ-
ous tournaments.
Were competing against teams
that are on scholarships, so
theres less pressure for us, said
club president Abbey Bays, a ju-
nior from Lecompton. Were a
club sport. Everyone else has to
take it seriously.
Until the week of Nationals, the
team made it out to the water-
front nearly every day. Tey scat-
tered the dock with water skis,
wakeboards, vests and ropes.
Between ski runs, individuals
even worked on homework. Te
steam whistle sounding faintly in
the distance ofered a sufcient
reminder that they still had class.
An ideal day would be when we
all get out here at 2 p.m., Hamil-
ton said. Its sunny with no wind,
we tan and everyone skis.
Fun and games aside, the Spray-
hawks know how to get serious.
Members of the club team are
nationally ranked. According to
USA Water Ski, Hamilton stands
in ninth place and Bays holds
seventh place in the Midwest
trick category, determined by
conferences throughout the year.
Given 20 seconds each run, Bays
said she can perform 15 tricks on
average.
Tricks can be performed on one
ski, two skis or a wakeboard. One
ski, or slalom skiing, earns more
points for its difculty.
In the slalom event, the boat
driver must punch the throt-
tle from zero to 34 mph to start
of, and skiers maneuver sharply
around buoys at speeds of more
than 70 mph in a zigzag pattern.
Good form is key in order to
prevent any injury. Straight arms,
strong legs and a solid core pre-
vent wipeouts. Many members of
the team, like Hamilton and Bays,
started skiing at a young age and
have developed their skills over
many years. However, beginners
shouldnt be intimidated.
Jake Waldenmeyer, a sopho-
more from Leawood, considers
himself a newbie. Despite the
girls' teasing, he insists on sport-
ing a full body wetsuit. He said
water temperature can drop to as
low as 40 degrees.
Such a chick, Bays said.
Teasing aside, Bays said the
team is one big family. Te club
is student-motivated, and parents
invest their time, money and of-
fer hospitality.
Te guys who are letting us use
the RV, Dylan and Drew Brittain,
their parents come to every sin-
gle tournament, Hamilton said.
Teyll even make us breakfast,
lunch and dinner.
In addition to packing equip-
ment, members made sure to
bring a variety of costumes for
the Nationals tradition of themed
dinners, like Aladdin and Mexico
nights.
Its the best way to spend fall
break, Waldenmeyer said.

formed at Nationals at Kansan.

1. Just a little bit of research
before the enrollment session can
help. Students with no idea on
how to begin can contact peer ad-
visors; they will point the students
in the right direction.
2. Remember the logistics when
planning for classes. Is there time
to eat, sleep, study for classes? Is
there enough time between class-
es to get to the next class on time?
Is there time for club activities or
downtime? Having personal time
is important.
3. Think two steps ahead. Some
classes are only offered in the fall
or the spring. Some classes have
prerequisites. Students should
look further than just the next se-
mester, especially if they choose
an academic feld with very
prescribed requirements.
4. Dont forget about right
now. Even if next semester is all
planned out, students still need to
fnish this semester well. Get help
on planning the next semester
and remember to spend time on
working on this semesters goals.
5. Come talk to the advisors.
They will give honest evaluation
of student progress. They dont
just help with enrollment. They
are excellent sources of informa-
tion and can point students in the
right direction for more help.
Te dash for spring semester en-
rollment began as honors students
and athletes start enrolling today.
Te rest of the student body has
some time before their enrollment
appointment date. Seniors en-
rollment dates are Oct. 22 and 23;
juniors, Oct. 25 through 28; sopho-
mores Oct. 30 through Nov. 8 and
freshmens, Nov. 5 through 8.
Before the enrollment appoint-
ment date arrives, students have
to have an appointment with
an advisor from either the Un-
dergraduate Advising Center or
their specifc department. Here
are some tips and information to
help guide students through the
enrollment process.
ACADEMICS
Ready, set, enroll
Follow these suggestions to get the schedule you want next semester
YU KYUNG LEE
ykyunglee@kansan.com
SIGN UP EARLY FOR AN
ADVISING SESSION
Once students receive academic
notice through email, they should
log into their uPortal and look at the
enrollment appointment time. Stu-
dents should schedule an advising
session before the enrollment time.
After the notices are sent out, ad-
vising staffs schedules flls up
pretty quickly, especially with ad-
visors for specifc degrees, such as
engineering, nursing and business.
Students can sign up for appoint-
ments online through uPortals
advising tab or contact the offce
directly through phone or email.
LOOK AHEAD AT NEXT
SEMESTERS SCHEDULE
The schedule for the next semes-
ter is already up; students can look
at the times and make mock sched-
ules. Doing so will give the advisor
something to look at during the ad-
vising session. Students can also
browse the Universitys website to
narrow interests if they have sever-
al academic interests in mind.
BE HONEST IN THE
ADVISING MEETING
Advisors will suggest next semes-
ters schedule based on their as-
sessment of students success and
adjustment to the current semester.
Advisors want to get to know the
student to best help, and students
must be willing to communicate.

PUT CLASSES IN
THE SHOPPING CART
Before the actual date, students
can actually put in classes they
want in their Enroll & Pay shopping
cart ahead of time. On the actual
enrollment appointment time, stu-
dents just need to press the enroll
button on their shopping cart. Ad-
visors suggest students do this so
students have the best chance of
getting their planned schedule next
semester.
DONT PANIC IF SOME
CLASSES FALL THROUGH
Students can always contact
the Undergraduate Advising Cen-
ter. Peer advisors will talk to stu-
dents about alternative plans and
switching classes, even frst week
into next semester. That being said,
students may want to have substi-
tute classes as backup before the
enrollment date so that they dont
panic.
FOUR-YEAR PLAN
Between the time the semester
ends and registration for classes
begins in the spring, students can
make an appointment with the ad-
vising offce to make a four-year
plan. Currently, advising sessions
only last 30 minutes as advisors
want to work with as many stu-
dents as quickly as possible. Once
enrollment is over, however, advi-
sors will take hour-long appoint-
ments during which they can come
up with detailed plan for the rest of
students academic career.
ONLINE APPOINTMENT
SYSTEM
This is the frst year students can
sign up for advising appointments
online through uPortal. Online sign-
up allows students to see all the
available appointment times and
sign up for a time that works best
for them. Also, it saves the advis-
ing offce time by reducing the time
spent working out appointment
times through phone calls, voice
messages and emails. Students who
have trouble getting appointments
with their advisors before their en-
rollment appointment date should
directly contact the advising offce
for an appointment.
SOPHOMORES CAN OPT
IN TO KU CORE
Juniors and seniors remain under
General Education Degree Require-
ments while freshmen are under
the new KU Core requirements. This
years sophomores can choose to opt
into the KU Core. Under the KU Core,
more classes across all academic
felds will count toward degree prog-
ress. Incoming students with trans-
fer students or students with many
AP credits may be further along un-
der the GED requirements than un-
der the KU Core. Such students may
beneft from remaining under GED
system; KU Core is recommended
for other students. Advisors can help
evaluate whether GED or KU Core will
better suit individual students.
PEER ADVISORS
While peer advisors had always
provided help to students in man-
aging stresses and choosing class-
es and teachers, starting this year,
they can offcially help students plan
class schedules. Peer advisors will
leave advising notes under student
information on uPortals advising
tab. After a full-time advisor checks
the notes, students advising hold
will be lifted. Allowing peer advisors
to discuss student schedules allows
the advising offce to be more imme-
diate in their response to students
needing immediate attention.

THURSDAY, OCTOBER 17, 2013 PAGE 4A
I
think a lot about self-esteem,
which is to say that I wonder
how I might come by more of
it. Call it middle-child syndrome
or whatever, but nothing I ever do
feels good enough to take credit
for. Its a vicious cycle, because the
harder I try to attain perfection,
the more unattainable it seems.
But people need to see the value
in the things that we are accom-
plishing every single day. We can
let that be what drives us. Tose
little achievements can be fuel in
the tank on the road of life.
I once heard that self-esteem
comes through accomplishments,
so Ive set out to try to accom-
plish all sorts of diferent things.
But Ive only just realized that
accomplishment comes in all dif-
ferent shapes and sizes. Im always
held in awe of other peoples
drive. A friend of mine, a single
mother, works three jobs and
has at least one night each week
when she is scheduled for work
and school 36 hours straight.
Yet every morning, she is there
when her son wakes up. She takes
him to school and spends every
free moment with him as she is
positioning herself to give him the
best life possible. Tere are days
I dont want to get out of bed, but
she is my inspiration. Every damn
day is a battle to which she comes
armed with a smile. If she can do
that, I can drag myself out of bed
by 9 a.m.
Life wasnt great when I was
younger. I felt completely for-
gotten by everyone. I wanted
to die. Every waking day was
spent begging the gods to give
me strength to kill myself, but it
wasnt to be. One of my teachers
had handmade a card and gone
out of her way to get my class to
sign it (while I wasnt at school)
with something that they liked
about me, and I remember getting
the card and just sitting and
crying over it. One of my biggest
regrets is that, to this day, Ive
not yet expressed how much that
meant to me. Tat was perhaps,
to her, something small, but it
was life altering. Something that
only took people a few minutes
to do, changed and possibly saved
my life. Dont underestimate the
power that we can have to help
other people.
It isnt just things like that
though. Tere are so many
seemingly small things people do
that make me feel just a bit better
about the world I live in. Simple
things. Picking up a piece of trash
that they didnt necessarily drop.
Holding the door for someone.
Smiling at someone for no reason
other than possibly brightening
their day. Making it to an 8 a.m.
class. Looking before crossing the
street, or maybe waving thanks
to the car that had to slam on its
brakes not to hit you when you
forget to look both ways. Hell, the
person that didnt hit you deserves
credit too. Such small things can
make a world of diference to
somebody.
I have this incipient belief that
life is not a series of quick sprints.
Even major accomplishments can
only take us so far. In this mara-
thon we need something to drive
us forward each painful step. I
just want to point out that all of
those things we do, that seem so
small to us, could make a world of
diference to someone else. So lets
keep doing great things for each
other, and appreciate ourselves for
doing so.

W
hen I was a sopho-
more in high school,
I met a holocaust
survivor living in my home
town. She came to visit my
honors English class, right afer
we had fnished reading the
novel Night, by Elie Wiesel.
Listening to her speak about her
experiences was simultaneously
heartbreaking and fascinating.
As she sat there, recounting the
horrors of her past, she gave the
entire class a stern look and said
something along the lines of:
Be careful who you pick as your
leaders, because all it takes is one
crook and the whole thing will
crumble. I will never forget that.
At the time, my classmates and
I thought that idea was a bit too
paranoidafer all, isnt America
based on a foundation of free-
doms that inherently opposes
tyranny? Had we not been learn-
ing about the government system
of checks-and-balances set up to
prevent a power overthrow since
grade school? Te idea seemed
simply impossible.
Yet the older I get, the more I
realize what she meant. As the
government shutdown has clear-
ly demonstrated, we need to pay
attention to the leaders we elect.
We are ill informedmore con-
cerned with Hollywood scandal
than public policy, more likely
to base our political opinions
on biased sources rather than
facts. With the growing division
between the Republican and
Democratic parties, its becom-
ing more and more important
that people of our generation
educate themselves on the issues
and really start considering our
future as a country.
Being an uneducated voter
is dangerous. When you dont
know the candidates you are
voting for, its easy to vote solely
of party bias, or simply choose
the names that look the most fa-
miliar, and this ofen means that
the best candidates for the job
arent being chosen. Sometimes
especially in an eternally-red
state like Kansas two candi-
dates from the same party might
run, but one will switch party
association so that both parties
are represented. And voting by
name recognition only means
that you are probably choosing
the candidate who had greatest
campaign funds, not necessarily
the candidate whose platforms
you most agree with. And to top
it of, sometimes these politicians
are not even true natives to the
state that they end up represent-
ing.
Its frustrating to think about
the government shutdown
and how powerless we are in
preventing or fxing it. How
can we hold our politicians
accountable when they are the
ones who design and pass our
bills and regulations? Teir
ability to exclude themselves
from the consequences of their
own legislation is, in itself, a
form of corruption. I honestly
think that if Tomas Jeferson
were alive today, he would tell
us (afer having a massive stroke
of shock upon seeing what our
country has become) that this is
what your right to bear arms is
for, people!
But that may be an exaggera-
tion. Te truth is, this isnt the
frst time the government has
shut down, and though it feels
a whole lot like Congress is
unable to fulfll the most basic
of their duties, it would still
be a bit ridiculous to resort to
violence. However, though we
dont have the power to simply
upend congress at the moment,
midterm elections will be upon
us sooner than you think (about
one year from now), and it is our
duty as citizens to use this up-
coming election as a way to hold
Congress (and all of our political
leaders) accountable.
So go online and do some
research on your representatives,
and fnd out whether you are
happy with the job they are do-
ing or not. And when midterm
elections come around, dont
forget to vote!

W
hen was the last time
you made a piece of
art? Unless you have
a creative hobby or an artistic
major, your answer is probably
never. Yet in todays online
world, average users are flling
the roles of artists. Mass media
has put the creative tools into
everyones hands.
Tink about it. Some of the
most visited websites in the world
exist solely for user-generated
content Wikipedia, Blogspot,
YouTube, eBay, Flickr and most
importantly, social media sites.
Without these websites and apps,
people wouldnt be exposed to the
world of multimedia.
When I was 12, I started making
YouTube videos because I saw
people doing cool things online
and wanted to emulate them. My
videos were absolutely horrible,
but I was inspired. Now, I hold
two jobs where I produce and
teach video. Without the back-
ground of YouTube and Face-
book, I never would have realized
my passion for multimedia and
journalism.
I know Im not the only one;
currently, 18-34 year olds are the
highest proportion of smartphone
users, meaning they have cameras
and quick access to online post-
ing. Over half of Facebook users
are in the same demographic.
When I started out, I just had a
point-and-shoot camera and the
barebones Windows Movie Mak-
er sofware to work with. As tech-
nology develops and social media
grows, more people are learning
how to create multimedia.
Te rise of Vine is a great
example of creativity being
expressed through social media.
Vines six-second parameters
challenge us to think critical-
ly about how we will transmit
our joke/thought/message. Te
convenience of a web app also lets
anyone enjoy the satisfaction of
producing a video.
Tis has led to us broadcasting
our lives as they happen, and
arguments have arisen that social
media is distracting us from our
experiences. However, I think
it becomes a cathartic part of
our existence. Trough writing,
photographing, recording and
posting, we paint a picture of our
world. We are artists, and our
lives are our subject matter.
Social media is constructed
perfectly for this because of the
instant feedback. People follow
and like our content, or per-
haps even share it with others.
Immediate responses create a
direct audience for our work that
is vital for motivation. Te more
favorites or retweets you get, the
more likely you are to continue to
use Twitter.
So, were artists. Were creators.
Where are the consumers?
With everyone producing at
such a rapid rate, social media
becomes an immersive expe-
rience. We see what others are
creating and contribute to the
cycle. Also, understanding what it
takes to develop content causes us
to raise our standards for what we
consume. Look at television. In
the era where overall viewership
is declining, Breaking Bad broke
records for the most watched
television broadcast ever with
10.3 million viewers. Everyone is
consuming. Additionally, Grand
Tef Auto 5 sold over $1 billion
in three days and broke the
record for the highest revenue
generated by an entertainment
product in 24 hours.
So what does this mean? Next
time youre looking at yourself
in the front facing camera, think
about how youre capturing
your life. Tink about how you
consume media. Te markets will
follow as younger generations
whove grown up producing
media hit the work force. Social
media will continue to be an
important part of our lives. How
will it be a part of your life?

Pearl Jam releases tenth
album to suit many moods
Recycle this paper
Afer 23 years, one of the orig-
inal grunge bands out of Seattle
released their 10th full-length
album this week. Pearl Jam, best
known for their singles Jeremy
and Yellow Ledbetter, released
Lightning Bolt on Tuesday on
the bands own record label, Mon-
keywrench.
Te album revisits the forever
familiar sound that can be iden-
tifed only as Pearl Jam, andas
alwaysmost of the punch in the
songs comes from the lyrical con-
tent composed by frontman Eddie
Vedder, whose voice is commonly
pseudo-trademarked to 90s rock
bands from Seattle.
From his opening lyrics on the
frst track Getaway, that discuss
the diferences and similarities
between separate individuals
thoughts, to the slowed-down,
melancholic piano and hopeful
lyrics on the closing track Future
Days, there is something for ev-
ery fan of grunge-rock and alter-
native-rock in general.
But lyrics arent the only thing
to talk about. As always, lead
guitarist Mike McCready deliv-
ers the fast-paced sound on the
second track, Mind Your Man-
ners, that is similar to the hard,
upbeat sound of older Pearl Jam
hits like Go and Even Flow.
Tese tracks provide a good
change of pace as well as a vari-
ety for listeners to choose from
depending on their mood.
Te album sounds most simi-
lar to their previous release from
2009, Backspacer, and in the last
four years, it is evident that their
sound has grown somebut not
too much. Te sound is still Pearl
Jam, and for people who are al-
ready fans of Pearl Jam, that will
probably be a good thing. With
that being said, the album does
not give way for developing a
larger fan-base from those who
are not already fans of Pearl Jam
or 90s rock.
Lightning Bolt would be
well-recommended for music lov-
ers who are fans of bands such as
Temple of the Dog, Soundgarden,
Audioslave, Nirvana and Stone
Temple Pilots.

A renowned Berlin antiqui-
ties museum is trying to get
back an ancient gold tablet
excavated from an Assyrian
temple that a Holocaust sur-
vivor somehow obtained afer
World War II.
Who gets it is up to New
York's top court, which is set
to hear arguments Tuesday.
Te 9.5-gram tablet, about
the size of a credit card, was
excavated a century ago by
German archaeologists from
the Ishtar Temple in what is
now northern Iraq. It went on
display in Berlin in 1934, was
put in storage as the war began
and later disappeared.
Riven Flamenbaum brought it to
the U.S. afer surviving the Aus-
chwitz concentration camp and
settling on Long Island. Family
lore says he had traded two packs
of cigarettes to a Russian sol-
dier for the tablet in the cha-
otic days at the end of the war.
Flamenbaum's family is try-
ing to keep the 3,200-year-old
relic, arguing the museum for-
feited any claim to ownership
by waiting 60 years to seek its
return.
Lawyers for the Vorderasi-
atisches Museum, a branch of
the Pergamon Museum, said
it didn't know Flamenbaum
had the tablet until 2006, three
years afer he died.
Steven Schlesinger, the law-
yer representing the estate,
said any claim is complicated
by the passage of so much time
and Flamenbaum's death. He
said he believes Flamenbaum
was trading Red Cross packag-
es and anything else he could
get for silver and gold.
Te tablet is now in a safe
deposit box in New York. One
recent estimate put its value at
$10 million, he said, and the
family wants to donate it to the
Holocaust Museum in Wash-
ington.
According to court docu-
ments, the tablet dates to 1243
to 1207 B.C., the reign of King
Tukulti-Ninurta I of Assyria.
Placed in the foundation of the
temple of a fertility goddess, its
21 lines call on those who fnd the
temple to honor the king's name.
Te tablet was excavated by Ger-
man archaeologists from about
1908 to 1914 in what was then the
Ottoman Empire, with Germany
giving half the found antiquities
to Istanbul, Raymond Dowd, the
museums lawyer, said. Te mod-
ern state of Iraq has declined to
claim it, he said.
ASSOCIATED PRESS
Attorney Raymond Dowd argues on behalf of a Berlin museum that an ancient gold
tablet that a Holocaust survivor somehow obtained after World War II be returned to
the museum on Tuesday at the New York State Court of Appeals in Albany, N.Y.

While I am not condoning ig-
noring your schoolwork and blow-
ing your life savings at Te Hawk,
your college years consist of the
few times in your life that you will
have the chance to make reckless
memories and face the world with
your newfound independence. Tis
Saturday, I will have been on this
Earth for two decades. While I still
have so much to experience and
learn, there are a few things that we
all should know before its time to
blow out those 20 candles.
1. MANAGE MONEY
Budgeting is absolutely the key to
fnancial stability. While seemingly
tedious and time consuming, if you
sit down and organize your assets,
you will be much less likely to blow
it all in one place. Set aside certain
amounts of money per month for
groceries, gas, rent and other ne-
cessities. Avoid a debt hangover
and be fnancially conscious when-
ever you can.
2. RELATIONSHIPS
Fall hopelessly, madly in love.
And then change your mind. Stay
single for a while, or take a leap of
faith and ask out your crush. But
above all, fnd someone that makes
you happy and most importantly,
respects you. Sometimes we just
need to stop analyzing the past,
fguring out how we feel, deciding
what we want, and simply just wait
and see what happens.
3. MAKE MISTAKES
It may be cliche, but now is the
time to live and learn. We are all
going to experience our fair share
of setbacks, but how we overcome
and move on from lifes obstacles
defnes our character.
4. COOK MORE THAN CEREAL
All sexist sandwich jokes aside, by
the time you hit your twenties, girls
AND boys should have a few solid
recipes to fall back on.
5. STOP CARING ABOUT WHAT OTH-
ER PEOPLE THINK
Tis can be the hardest aspect of
life to overcome. Embrace your
individuality, be thankful for what
makes you diferent and realize that
trying to please everyone is an im-
possible task.
6. WRITE A COVER LETTER
As our entrance into the com-
petitive job market approaches, it
is essential to have the knowledge
to stand out from other applicants.
Tere is no better opportunity to
efectively convey your skills and
all the reasons why you should be
hired. While seemingly old fash-
ioned, cover letters can make or
break your frst impression to an
employer.
7. HOW TO DANCE
Develop a sense of rhythm and
realize that twerking is not a life
skill unless your career path is
inspired by Miley Cyrus.
8. CALL YOUR PARENTS
While you may have not fully
realized it yet, your family is ul-
timately the most infuential and
important people in your life. Tey
are the ones who raised you, taught
you right from wrong and gave
you the skills to succeed. A simple
phone call, text or email is worth
far more than you know.
9. SAY YES TO NEW ADVENTURES
Even if it scares you a little bit,
do it. Most things worthwhile in
life probably will. Your 20s are the
perfect time to explore and fnd
yourself. Dont worry about settling
down or making big life decisions.
Study abroad or road trip to the
beach with your friends. Dont stay
tied down to anyone or anything.
10. APPRECIATE FRIENDSHIPS
Enjoy the closeness you feel with
your friends while it lasts, because
as the years pass, you may lose
contact with the people you asso-
ciated with in high school and col-
lege. Cherish every second as your
friends are the ones who will have a
signifcant impact on your life.

Ten things students should
know before turning 20
BRUSSELS Te alleged pi-
rate kingpin thought he was going
work in the movies. Instead he
landed in jail.
In a sting operation worthy of
Hollywood, Mohamed Abdi Has-
san was lured from Somalia to
Belgium with promises of work
on a documentary about high-
seas crime that would "mirror his
life as a pirate," federal prosecutor
Johan Delmulle said Monday.
But rather than being behind the
camera as an expert adviser, Abdi
Hassan ended up behind bars,
nabbed as he landed Saturday at
Brussels airport.
"(He's) one of the most import-
ant and infamous kingpin pirate
leaders, responsible for the hijack-
ing of dozens of commercial ves-
sels from 2008 to 2013," Delmulle
said.
Abdi Hassan whose nick-
name, Afweyne, means "Big
Mouth" was charged with hi-
jacking the Belgian dredger Pom-
pei and kidnapping its nine-mem-
ber crew in 2009, Delmulle said.
Te Pompei's crew was released
afer 10 weeks in captivity when
the ship's owner paid a report-
ed $3 million ransom. Belgium
caught two pirates involved in
the hijacking, convicted them and
sentenced them to nine and 10
years in prison.
But prosecutors still wanted the
ringleaders.
"Too ofen, these people remain
beyond reach while they let others
do the dirty work," Delmulle told
reporters.
ASSOCIATED PRESS
In this undated handout photo provided by the Belgian government, the Belgian ship Pompei is shown in unidentifed
waters. One of Somalias most notorious pirate leaders, Mohamed Abdi Hassan, was arrested in Brussels on Oct. 12 and
placed in custody pending charges of hijacking the Pompei and kidnapping its crew in 2009.

BEER
Eating greasy food while
drunk worsens hangover
Craft breweries offer seasonal beers full of fall favor
As college students, many of us
have been faced with a gut wrench-
ing, distinctly frst world problem
when buying beer: whether to set-
tle for quantity, or spring for qual-
ity. We stare indecisively down the
glass-encased rows of fermented
hoppy goodness. We wafe back
and forth between good ol An-
heuser Busch and some German
brew with a name that sounds like
someone clearing their throat fol-
lowed by Hefeweizen. We think
to ourselves, Tat Ginger Lemon-
grass Shandy from Oregon must be
insane if its worth half my share of
the water bill, right?
But for some reason, the pricier,
more favorful craf beers seem to
make a comeback every year with
the falling of the leaves. Something
about the crisp fall air makes us
want to drink a hearty ale instead
of a light lager, and the brewers
know it. Tey inevitably come out
with an array of special brews along
with the seasonal change. In hon-
or of their eforts, Ive put togeth-
er a short, six-pack list of some of
my favorites for this time of year.
Cheers!
NAME: Free State Ad Astra Ale
BREWERY: Free State Brewing Co.
(Lawrence)
STYLE: Amber Ale
Ad Astra Ale is the original beer
from Free State Brewing Co. Its
name comes from the Kansas state
motto Ad Astra per Aspera, which
means To the Stars Trough Dif-
culties. Tis is probably my favor-
ite Free State brew, aside from the
Wheat State Golden, because of its
no-nonsense malt taste and drink-
ability. Despite being a darker ale,
its easy to have a few of these on
a Friday night without feeling so
full you cant walk. I also detected
a hint of copper in the one I drank
for this review, but it wasnt strong
enough to overpower the beers sig-
nature characteristics.
NAME: Lost Coast Indica IPA
BREWERY: Lost Coast Brewery & Caf
(Eureka, Calif.)
STYLE: India Pale Ale
Like all members of the India
Pale Ale family, Lost Coast Indica
is strongly hopped, giving it a more
bitter taste. Tis style originated
several centuries ago when Brit-
ish brewers added extra hops as a
natural preservative to ales they
exported to India. While IPAs ar-
ent typically considered seasonal
beers, I love to drink them when
the temperature outside drops be-
cause they tend to be a bit higher
in alcohol content. Tis is one of
my favorite IPAs Ive tried because
it strikes a good balance between
bitterness and a wholesome, grainy
taste. At 6.5 percent alcohol, the fa-
vor is deceptively mellow.
NAME: Becks Oktoberfest Lager
BREWERY: Brauerei Beck & Co./
Becks (Bremen, Germany)
STYLE: Oktoberfest/Mrzen
While Becks started out as an
independent brewery in Germany,
it isnt technically a craf brewery
nowadays as InBev owns it. Becks
Oktoberfest makes my list because
its sweet favorwith hints of car-
amel and tofeecould be perfect
for some around Halloween. It
pours with a reddish, amber color,
and is the lowest in alcohol content
of the six at just 5 percent. Consider
having this one available instead of
candy at your 21-and-up costume
party this year.
NAME: Left Hand 400 Pound Monkey IPA
BREWERY: Left Hand Brewing Co.
(Longmont, Colo.)
STYLE: India Pale Ale
Te lightest of the six in color, 400
Pound Monkey is another India
Pale Ale that isnt too overbearing
in bitterness. I drank it along with a
lasagna dinner and its smoothness
went perfectly with my meal with-
out clashing and leaving a weird
afertaste. Flavor aside, Lef Hand
wins the award for best graphic
design of any craf brewery Ive
seen. And thats saying something
in an industry where a pale ale la-
bel ofen equates to visual art. Oh,
and at nearly 7 percent alcohol, 400
Pound Monkey may be a one-and-
done for some casual beer drinkers.
NAME: Breckenridge Autumn Ale
BREWERY: Breckenridge Brewery
(Breckenridge, Colo.)
STYLE: Dark ale
Never having tried Breckenridge
Autumn Ale before, or anything
from Breckenridge Brewery for
that matter, I was pleasantly sur-
prised by this one. Its dark, cloudy
coloration had me anticipating a
Guiness knock-of, but the sweet
taste of molasses brought out by
roasted malts used in the brew-
ing process put my concerns to
rest. Tis is an autumn ale with a
complex favor thats sure to leave
a diferent palatal impression for
everyone. Personally, I enjoyed its
lingering afertaste that faded to a
mellow toastiness.
NAME: Boulevard Bobs 47 Oktoberfest
BREWERY: Boulevard Brewing Co.
(Kansas City, Mo.)
STYLE: Oktoberfest/Mrzen
Maybe my taste buds are just
averse to sweeter beers for some
reason, but Bobs 47 Oktoberfest
and Becks Oktoberfest Lager were
my least favorites of the bunch.
While Bobs 47 defnitely doesnt
have the almost candy corn-like
hints of the Becks Oktoberfest, it
still lef something to be desired.
My favorite Boulevard beer is
the Pale Ale because of its classic
grainy, yet slightly bitter, favor.
Tose characteristics were missing
in Bobs 47, so I personally will
continue to purchase Boulevard
Pale Ale at every opportunity like
a good Kansas City native should.

Breckenridge Brewerys Autumn Ale is just one of many seasonal craft beers currently available. Although slightly more expen-
sive, these limited-edition brews could be worth the extra money.
Weve all been there you stum-
bled out of the Hawk afer consum-
ing your body weight in cranberry
vodkas and freball shots and youre
about to make some bad decisions.
Your body hasn't yet registered all
of the calories you have just drank
so you are about to completely dis-
regard the hours you spent in the
gym. Instead, you will listen to
your grumbling tummy because
as we all know, alcohol is known
to impair our judgment and deci-
sion-making abilities.
Well done, my friend. You reek
of booze, made out with that boy
from your English class, spent all
of your money, lost your friends
and now youre starving. In your
mind, that greasy fourth meal is
exactly what you need before you
pass out. Sadly, it isnt true that if
you eat something it will ease your
hangover, but who cares right
now youre drunk and need to soak
up that alcohol.
Drunk eating occurs when you
carelessly eat large portions of un-
healthy food simply because you
are highly intoxicated and have
thrown all sense of self-control out
the window. Calories from alcohol
are not recognized by the body
and mind the same way sources of
protein are recognized. Terefore,
it takes longer for you to feel full
causing you to eat more than nor-
mal.
Binge eating will cause you to
wake up the next morning with
a pounding headache and a food
baby flling you with more regret
than that midterm you didn't pre-
pare for. But the next time youre
wasted it wont stop you from dip-
ping that pizza in ranch or ordering
an extra bag of chips with your Jim-
my Johns sandwich.
Te Department of Psychiatry
and Human Behavior at Brown
University analyzed the behavior
of college freshmen to suggest that
alcohol consumption has a direct
efect on eating patterns and weight
gain.
According to the study involving
206 students reported drinking
in the past month, 36.1 percent
of students described eating large
amounts following alcohol con-
sumption (a pattern students ubiq-
uitously label drunk munchies)
on at least half of drinking episodes,
and 39 percent reported being less
healthy in their food choices afer
drinking, as compared to when
they abstained from drinking.
So whats the deal?
Ria Gilday, a naturopathic doctor,
nutritionist and author of Healthy
Weight Loss; Fast, Easy, and Safe,
explains how alcohol, which is
mainly sugar, is absorbed into the
bloodstream right away causing
insulin to be released in order to
lower your glucose levels. But low
blood glucose causes you to crave
carbs in order to provide fast re-
lief. Its a vicious cycle, but what
fun would it be to get wasted if it
weren't bad for you? Alcohol is also
known to enhance the taste of salts
and fats, which is why Te Wheel is
known for pizza and not for serv-
ing up delicious salads.
Tose greasy foods you decide to
late-night binge eat are harder to
digest, increase dehydration and
will leave you feeling sick the next
morning. So instead, eat something
like a grilled cheese or peanut but-
ter sandwich. Both options have a
limited amount of fat, carbs and
protein.
And don't forget a glass of water;
youll thank me in the morning.

I usually dont like Samuel

Adams beers a lot, but their
Octoberfest beer is really good.
Theyre typically such heavy, dark
beers, and I dont like to fll up
that quickly, but its delicious.

One of my favorite beers in

got a nice bit of favor, but isnt
overly dark and still kind of has
that crispness.

According to Ria Gilday, a naturopathic doctor and nutritionist, consuming hard-to-digest, greasy foods after a night of drink-
ing can increase dehydration and worsen hangovers. A better choice would be a grilled cheese or peanut butter sandwich.

FREE STATE OWNER COMMENTS
ON GOVERNMENT SHUTDOWN
Last Thursdays University Daily
Kansan ran an Associated Press story
about possible delays to the intro-
duction of new craft beers due to the
government shutdown. Chuck Magerl,
owner and founder of Lawrences Free
State Brewing Co., said his brewery
could be affected if the shutdown lasts
longer than currently anticipated.
We basically plan six weeks to six
months out, so to have this as a short-
term disruption is not a problem, Ma-
gerl said. If they arent able to resolve
things and it still lingers on for another
month or two, it could have an impact
on us. A lot of what comes from them
are permits and label approvals, and
we have most of those locked in place
at this point. But I know its going to
have a huge backlog once they do ac-
tually get back to work.
Magerl added that the absence of
federal regulation matters more for
start-up craft brewers. They will have
to wait on a response from the essen-
tially inactive Alcohol and Tobacco Tax
and Trade Bureau.
Its also going to have an impact on
some small businesses that maybe are
just trying to get started and are wait-
ing for their initial approval, Magerl
said.
Free State has just fnished brewing
the last of their fall seasonal October-
fest beer this week, and will soon be in-
troducing their new Winterfest variety.
The Winterfest is an India Pale Ale.
NEW YORK Wall Street fnally
got the deal it's been waiting for.
A last-minute agreement to keep
the U.S. from defaulting on its
debt and reopen the government
sent the stock market soaring
Wednesday, lifing the Standard &
Poor's 500 index close to a record
high.
Te deal was reached just hours
before a deadline to raise the
nation's $16.7 trillion debt limit.
Senate leaders agreed to extend
government borrowing through
Feb. 7 and to fund the government
through Jan. 15.
Te agreement follows a month
of political gridlock that threatened
to make America a deadbeat
and derail global markets, which
depend on the U.S. to pay its
bills. American government debt
is widely considered the world's
safest investment.
Markets stayed largely calm
throughout the drama in
Washington, with the S&P 500
actually gaining 2.4 percent since
the shutdown began Oct. 1, afer
House Republicans demanded
changes to President Barack
Obama's health care law before
passing a budget.
Wall Street gambled that
politicians wouldn't let the U.S.
default, a calamity economists
said could paralyze lending and
push the economy into another
recession.
"We knew it was going to be
dramatic, but the consequences
of a U.S. default are just so severe
that the base case was always
that a compromise was going to
be reached," said Tom Franks, a
managing director at TIAA CREF,
a large retirement funds manager.
Congress was racing to pass the
legislation before the Tursday
deadline.
If the deal wraps up soon,
investors can turn their attention
back to economic basics like third-
quarter earnings. Overall earnings
at companies in the S&P 500 index
are forecast to grow 3.1 percent
from a year earlier, according to
data from S&P Capital IQ. Tat's
slower than the growth of 4.9
percent in the second quarter and
5.2 percent in the frst quarter.
It will be harder for Wall Street
to get an up-to-date view of the
economy because the partial
government shutdown that began
Oct. 1 has kept agencies from
releasing key reports on trends
like hiring. In general, though, the
economy has been expanding this
year.
Despite broad confdence that
the political parties would strike a
deal, the Dow went through rough
patches over the last month, at one
point falling as much as 900 points
below an all-time high reached on
Sept. 18. Te Dow has seen seven
triple-digit moves in the last 10
trading days.
On Wednesday, the Dow Jones
climbed 205.82 points, or 1.4
percent, to 15,373.83. Te S&P
500 gained 23.48, or 1.4 percent,
at 1,721.54. Tat's only four points
below its record close of 1,725.52
set Sept. 18.
Te Nasdaq composite climbed
45.42, or 1.2 percent, to 3,839.43.
Te feeling among stock traders
in recent days was that panicking
and pulling money out of stocks
could mean missing out on a
rally afer Washington came to
an agreement. Investors have also
become inured to Washington's
habit of reaching budget and debt
deals at the last minute.
"Investors have become,
unfortunately, accustomed to
some of the dysfunction," said
Eric Wiegand, a senior portfolio
manager at U.S. Bank. "It's become
more the norm than the exception."
In the summer of 2011, the S&P
500 index plunged 17 percent
between early July and early
August as lawmakers argued over
raising the debt limit, and Standard
& Poor's cut the U.S. credit rating
from AAA, its highest ranking. Te
market later recovered.
Stocks also slumped in the last
two weeks of 2012 as investors
fretted that the U.S. could go over
the "fscal clif" as lawmakers
argued over a series of automatic
government spending cuts. Stocks
rebounded and began a strong rally
that has propelled the S&P 500 up
almost 21 percent this year.
Some were glad that investors
could now turn their focus back to
the traditional drivers of the market
rather than worrying whether the
latest dispatch from Washington
would shake stocks.
"It's a little bit silly in the short
term for markets to go down so
much on press conferences and
then to go up so much on rumors,"
said Brad Sorensen, director of
market and sector research at
the Schwab Center for Financial
Research. "We've urged investors to
pull back a little bit and look at the
longer term."
Te market for U.S. Treasury
bills refected relief among
bond investors. Te yield on
the one-month T-bill dropped
to 0.13 percent from 0.40
percent Wednesday morning,
an extraordinarily large move.
Te decline means that investors
consider the bill, which would have
come due around the time a default
may have occurred, to be less risky.
Te yield on the 10-year Treasury
note edged down to 2.67 percent
from 2.74 percent Tuesday. Yields
on longer-term U.S. government
debt haven't moved as much
as those on short-term debt
because investors believed that
the government would work out a
longer-term solution.
Among stocks making big moves:
Bank of America rose 32 cents,
or 2.2 percent, to $14.56 afer the
second-largest U.S. bank reported
a surge in third-quarter earnings.
Stanley Black & Decker
plunged $12.70, or 14.3 percent, to
$76.75 afer the company lowered
its proft forecast for the year, citing
slower growth in emerging markets
and a hit from the U.S. government
shutdown.

Emily Hess was away at camp
this summer when she read a book
that opened her eyes to a serious,
yet ofen ignored worldwide issue.
"I became aware of the amount
of people in the world that don't
have enough to eat," Hess, a junior
from Scott City, said. "So, I started
researching ways that I could help."
Hess' research ultimately led
her to an organization called the
Children's Hunger Fund, which
distributes food and other aid to
children throughout the country
and around the world.
Hess gathered a group and began
to brainstorm ways to help. Teir
eforts eventually culminated into
the Lawrence 5k Hunger Run,
which takes place at South Park
this Sunday, Oct. 20.
All proceeds will be donated to
the Children's Hunger Fund to
assist in helping poverty-stricken
children across the globe.
Many students and local
residents have already taken notice
of the event.
"I kept seeing fiers around, and
it seemed like a good cause to
support," said Lawrence resident
Caleb Tomas. "I try to run
regularly, so I might as well help
other people while doing it if I can."
Tough this is the frst annual
run, Hess hopes for a solid turnout.
She feels that Lawrence is the type
of community that the event can
thrive in.
"Lawrence is usually very
supportive of this type of thing,"
Hess said. "Tere are some very
generous people here."
Hess says that a simple $100
for a hungry child can provide
approximately 2,000 meals.
Te event is currently still open
for late registration. It's $35 to run
or $45 to run and receive an event
T-shirt.
Hess is eager to watch the event
grow over the coming years and
to spread awareness on worldwide
hunger.
"We're excited about it becoming
an annual thing," she said. "We
hope it can increase awareness on
the issue and hopefully increase
participation over the coming
years."

Engineering national award-
winning aerospace designs is not
rocket science, well maybe it is,
but for students in the Aerospace
Engineering program it is just part
of a tradition.
Students in the program were
recognized yesterday by the
Kansas Board of Regents for their
accomplishments.
A group consisting of
undergraduate and graduate
students won frst place in a graduate
level team design completion by
designing an unmanned high-
altitude aircraf which would
carry a laser for missile defense
purposes. Te competition was
hosted by the American Institute
of Aeronautics and Astronautics
(AIAA) and included universities
from the United States, Germany,
the United Kingdom and other
European nations.
Troughout the process we had
to work outside of boundaries and
it was tough, Amir Bachelani, a
University aerospace graduate and
current graduate student from
Olathe, said. Its such an out there
type of aircraf that really blows
people away when you talk about
it.
Te students won a graduate level
awar.
Its very Star Wars like, said
professor and advisor Ron Barrett-
Gonzalez. If there is a helicopter or
an airplane, a missile or an artillery
shell or basically anything that is
not suppose to be fying within a
hundred miles of it can be zapped
out of this sky by this aircraf.
Te group
graduate level
team was lead
by University
a e r o s p a c e
g r a d u a t e
student, and
L a w r e n c e
n a t i v e ,
S a m a n t h a
Schueler who
won frst place
in undergraduate individual design
last year. Joshua Holland, from
Pittsburgh, won second place in the
undergraduate individual design
this year.
Second place was awarded to a
group of undergraduate students
in team space for their design of
a reusable launch system. Te
system had to
have a payload
capacity of at least
fve tons, be able
to make it into
lower earth orbit
which is a height
greater than 400
km and had to
be designed in a
manner in which
it could be used
again and again for a lifetime of 20
years.
What our students do is they
design aircraf and they design
engines, kind of like the way
architecture students design
buildings in a studio class, said
Barrett-Gonzalez.
Students work in close relation
with their advisers when working
on the aircraf, and Bachelani said
its a lot of hard work. Sometimes
we just worked until we couldnt,
Bachelani said.
Stuart Hunsinger, a ffh-year
aerospace undergraduate student
from Olathe, worked on the laser
aircraf.
Its very exciting, we werent
expecting frst place. I immediately
put it on my resume, Hunsinger
said.
He plans on entering the
workforce in aerospace design afer
graduation.
Tey keep coming back to
the same orchard to pick apples.
Managers from many of the big
airspace companies come to KU
to recruit our design students,
Barrett-Gonzalez said. Once or
twice a year the chief of design
from Boeing makes his way out
here from Seattle to personally look
over students designs.
As well as receiving the other
awards, aerospace students who
designed a high-performance
engine for aircraf await the results
from another AIAA contest. Tey
placed in the top three, but the
standings have yet to be announced.

Traders work on the foor at the New York Stock Exchange in New York on Wednesday. Stocks are surging on Wall Street after
Senate leaders reached a deal that would avoid a U.S. default and reopen the government after 16 days of its partial down.
Investors have become,

ERIC WIEGAND
U.S. Bank senior portfolio manager
Te Student Senate passed a
resolution late last Wednesday to
urge the University in creating a new
handicapped-accessible entrance to
the front of Strong Hall, which will
replace the current entrance at the
back of the building.
Te resolution, which was passed
unanimously with more than 50
senate sponsors, marks a key victory
for student accessibility for Strong
Hall, as well as across campus.
Strong Hall has been criticized
by some for not having a more
convenient location for its
handicapped-accessible entryway.
Now with the combined eforts of
Student Senate and the Universitys
AbleHawks and Allies coalition,
students and faculty who have
disabilities will be able to enter
one of the Universitys most iconic
buildings through the front.
Currently, there is only an
accessible entrance in the back of
the building, so it is technically
compliant with the Americans with
Disabilities Act, but the University
has stated that it has a strong
commitment to diversity and it
wants to go above and beyond what
the law requires, yet that is not
refected in Strong Hall, said Drew
Harger, a junior from McPherson,
who co-authored the resolution.
Were very happy to support
this resolution, said Mary
Rasnak, director of the Academic
Achievement and Access Center.
Tis is going to be a wonderful step
for accessibility on campus.
Te issue of Strong Halls
accessibility has been an issue that
the senate has been wanting to
address for quite some time, but the
architectural integrity of the historic
building has caused problems in the
past.
Tere are very strict guidelines
for what you can or cannot do to
historical buildings. Our architecture
frm has worked with the National
Register of Historic Places before
and they have concluded that the
proposed entrance will not tamper
with the existing architecture of
the building, said Erin Howard,
a junior from Liberty, Mo and co-
author of the resolution. Tere are
fve historical buildings on campus
and all of them have been ftted with
accessible entrances, so Strong Hall
is behind all of those.
Te resolution passed by the
Senate refects a long-time trend
of students and faculty who have
expressed frustration with the
current entrance.
Although the present entrance
meets Americans with Disabilities
Act regulations, it really is separate
and unequal. As a wheelchair user,
it just doesnt seem right to me to
have to enter through the back of the
building, said Dot Nary, a research
associate with the Research and
Training Center on Independent
Living. It seems to send a message
to all campus members that
wheelchair users as a class of people
are not as equal as others.
Te renovated entrance is planned
to replace an existing window next
to the current Strong Hall entrance,
which will prevent any major
permanent changes to the current
architecture of one of KUs oldest
buildings on campus.
Afer performing an extensive
survey of students on campus,
the senate found that one of the
largest concerns was in the area of
accessibility.
When we were seeing if this was
actually an issue people were worried
about, we gave a survey to the full
student senate, and the results were
incredible. Tey showed that many
people consider accessibility as a
major issue, Howard said.
Work is planned to begin in June
2014, the same time as the newest
additions to the Jayhawk Boulevard
reconstruction project.
I think this is our duty to do this
while we have the ability to do it,
said Harger. Tis will have a lasting
impact on not only current students,
but on generations of students.
Every time a prospective student
looks at Strong Hall and doesnt
know how they can even get into the
building, thats one less student, one
less faculty member, one less staf
member that will go to KU.
Te resolution is currently in
circulation to gain signatures and
letters of support from various areas
of the university, including the ofce
of the Chancellor, Provost, as well
as the Student Achievement and
Access Center, among others.
KU has been successful at
obtaining much funding for
disability-related research. Tat is
another reason why it should set
an excellent example in equality for
and inclusion of campus members
with disabilities, said Nary.
Constructing the new entrance will
exemplify its commitment to these
important values.

Tough Congress approved
a deal to end the government
shutdown last night, the efects of
the shutdown are still being felt by
researchers at the University and
across the country who should be
preparing for a trip to Antarctica.
Te U.S. Antarctic Program,
funded by the National Science
Foundation, moved to caretaker
status earlier this month as a result
of the government shutdown.
Caretaker status means that the
staf on the program was reduced
to a minimum, only focusing on
maintaining safety and government
property. According to a statement
posted online by ofcials at the
USAP, all feld and research
activities not essential to human
safety and preservation of property
will be suspended.
Kevin Boatright, director of
communications for the Ofce of
Research and Graduate Studies,
said that these research projects are
afected, and some projects might
not happen at all.
Tis research is especially
vulnerable because research in
Antarctica can only be done during
the summer season between
October and January.
Time is precious, Boatright
said. You dont just get on a plane
from Lawrence to Antarctica it
takes time to get there and get
equipment there.
Tough Boatright said the
researchers are hopeful that now
that the government is up and
running and it will allow their
projects to resume, it will still
take time for the NSF to prioritize
projects and get things moving
again.
David Braaten, the deputy
director of the Center for Remote
Sensing of Ice Sheets, said he is
uncertain of what is next for the
project he is working with, which
measures ice sheets and how the
change in ice sheets will afect sea
level.
He said that its no longer possible
for his team to complete all of their
research in Antarctica and that he
hopes to complete at least a portion
of what was originally planned.
If we got 70 to 80 percent
that would be really, really
good, Braaten said. When the
government opens back up, and
things start to move again, it might
still be another week or so before
we fnd out whos going to get to
go.
Because of the uncertainty of
the timeline, Braaten and his team
havent made decisions on where
they will curtail their research or
how they will proceed.
Another unpredictable factor
prevents them from making those
decisions early the weather.
Not having as many days makes
it more risky for everything,
Braaten said.
Te project was already underway
and equipment was in the process
of being sent to the site, but the
researchers were set to arrive in
mid-November.
Braaten and his colleagues
werent expecting it to afect their
research, but without an approved
budget, the NSF was forced to halt
funding.
Its such a colossal waste of
money, Braaten said. Youre
committing to lots of resources
and lots of people and all that gets
wasted.
Te government shutdown came
at the worst time for Antarctic
research, Braaten said.
If this becomes a common
thing is this country, itll destroy
Antarctic research, Bratten said.
So thats a little scary.

Government reopens, Antarctic research yet to thaw

In this Dec. 1, 2009, fle photo provided by Aurora Expeditions, an infatable boat carries tourists past an iceberg along the Antarctic Peninsula. The U.S. government shutdown is threatening a long-awaited deal to create the worlds largest marine sanctuary
in Antarctica. Americans are among the biggest supporters of the proposal, but they might not make it to the negotiating table. On Wednesday, U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry joined his counterparts from other nations in calling for the sanctuary to proceed.
But the U.S. had apparently already suspended travel plans for its delegation. If they dont make it, the proposal probably will be put on hold until next year at least.

f Turner Gill had one
redeeming quality as a
head football coach here
at Kansas, it was that he was
so bad that by this time of his
tenure, most fans knew his
days were numbered. He was
a sinking ship that led to a
rebuild.
A new hire.
A hire that could possibly,
fnally, turn Kansas football
into something other than a
laughingstock.
In some ways, that
inevitability was easier for
fans to handle than what they
are experiencing now. Charlie
Weis might be the guy to turn
around Jayhawk football.
He might have learned from
previous mistakes as a head
coach at Notre Dame, where
he went 21-26 his fnal three
seasons and burned bridges
coming in and out of South
Bend, Ind.
Or he might be another
Terry Allen, the former
Kansas head coach who
averaged four wins a season
during a fve year stretch
from 1997-2001.
At this point, we don't
know.
With an ofense that
fnished last season 119th
nationally, out of 123 schools,
in passing yards and is
currently 112th, is Weis not
the ofensive mastermind we
thought? Or is the battered
ofensive line he inherited
from Turner Gill so bad that
the ragtag group Weis pieced
together can't be expected to
protect the quarterback and
run block?
Weis announced on
Tuesday that tight ends coach
Jef Blasko and quarterbacks
coach Ron Powlus will game
plan a majority of the ofense
during the week, a major
shif from Weis coordinating
the ofense and calling the
plays each Saturday. Te
move could be that of a head
coach learning from past
mistakes and seeing where
he can improve his team, or
it could just be desperation
sinking in as another
winless Big 12 season looms
overhead.
In a similar move, Weis
listed freshman quarterback
Montell Cozart on the depth
chart for the frst time this
season. Cozart appeared to
be redshirting this year, and
still might, before starting
next fall with four seasons to
play. At this point, worrying
about Cozart running out of
eligibility in 2016 or 2017 is
like worrying about college
applications in kindergarten.
Charlie Weis is doing what
he can to fx Kansas football.
Whether or not that happens
remains to be seen, and
unfortunately for Kansas
fans, we won't know until
2014 or beyond.

T
here was a time, not too long ago,
when the Kansas City Chiefs and
Denver Broncos met on the gridiron
in one of the fercest competitions known
to man. Te game featured two successful
franchises with a long, rich history between
themselves. Every meeting was a big game
on a big stage.
Afer a recent lull of big games between the
two teams, this year could be the opportu-
nity to rejuvenate one of the NFLs best and
most historic rivalries.
Te Chiefs and Broncos go way back, re-
gardless of the recent drop-of. You really
cant have one without the other. But al-
though they have a mutual respect, they ar-
ent particularly fond of one another.
Since they were a part of the original
American Football League in 1960, afer
the 1970 AFL/NFL merger, there has been
a burning desire on both sides to beat the
other. Te Chiefs were originally the Dal-
las Texans and the Broncos were still the
Broncos, but wore tobacco brown and gold
uniforms instead of the current orange and
navy blues. Tat didnt change anything.
Te rivalry was as intense as ever.
Te Chiefs lead a tightly-contested series
(56-50) flled with memorable moments
and one of the loudest, most passionate
fan-bases in American sports.
Even though the Chiefs had the up-
per-hand in the early years of the tug-of-
war, winning two AFL titles and a Super
Bowl Championship, the Broncos have re-
gained a frm grip of the rope.
Since 1998, the Broncos hold an 18-13
edge over the Chiefs. Afer the Chiefs last
playof win in 1993, the Broncos have won
two Super Bowls.
One of those playof victories was on Janu-
ary 4th, 1998 in the Divisional Round at Ar-
rowhead Stadiumthe last time these two
teams played each other in a game of this
magnitude. Tat game was eerily similar in
hype, but the similarities dont end there.
Tat game featured a future hall of fame
quarterback, John Elway, at age 37, against
a former San Francisco 49ers quarterback,
Elvis Grbac. What do the games this year
feature? A future hall of fame quarterback
at age 37, Peyton Manning, against a for-
mer San Francisco 49ers quarterback, Alex
Smith. You know the saying: history tends
to repeat itself ? It really does.
Tis game features another odd similarity
to the game played in 1998: a former Geor-
gia Bulldog and NFL castof at running back
for Denver. In the 1998 game, his name was
Terrell Davis. If it wasnt for a special teams
tackle during a preseason game in Japan in
1995, we may not have heard of the 1998
Super Bowl MVP and NFL MVP, one of
only six people to rush for over 2,000 yards.
Tis year, Knowshon Moreno, another
Georgia alum and overlooked player, leads
the Broncos and the NFL with six rushing
touchdowns just one year afer nearly being
cut from the squad.
Currently, the Denver Broncos are led by
QB Peyton Manning, winner of MVPs in
2003, 2004, 2008 and 2009, along with a
Super Bowl MVP in 2006. Te scary thing
is that his numbers this year, post neck sur-
geries and at the ripe old age of 37 years, are
better than all of those years. Manning is
doing his best Elway impression to say the
least.
In six games, Manning has completed 178
of his 240 passes for 2,179 yards and 22
touchdowns to 2 interceptions. He is on
pace for his best season since 2004 when
he completed 67.6 percent of his passes
for 4,557 yards, 49 touchdowns and 10 in-
terceptions.
ESPNs QBR rating has Peyton at a 90.1
on a scale of 0-100 with his lowest rating
against the Jaguars at a 74. To put that in
perspective, during Tom Bradys historic
season in 2007 when he set the record for
passing touchdowns in a single season, he
had an 89.1 QBR. To further put that in per-
spective, a typical pro-bowl quarterbacks
QBR is 60-70.
Te Chiefs are led by QB Alex Smith, who
has played essentially error-free football for
the Chiefs, but has a QBR of only 46.2.
One might argue that in a quarterback
driven league, the Broncos have a signif-
icant advantage, especially given the way
Manning treats the Chiefs when he plays
them.
Peyton Manning is 7-1 against the Kan-
sas City Chiefs, completing 61.7 percent
of his passes at 7.5 yards per attempt and
12 touchdowns to 9 interceptions, but this
Chiefs defense will be the toughest he has
faced to this point.
Te matchup will be interesting, but one
thing is for sure: these teams are good, but
for diferent reasons. Teir success has been
predicated on two entirely diferent styles:
the Chiefs on their sufocating defense, the
Broncos on their unstoppable ofense.
Te Chiefs have the number one-ranked
total defense, and the Broncos have the
number one-ranked total ofense. It is a
classic matchup of the unstoppable force
meeting the immovable object. Somethings
gotta give.
Tradition and history have a lot to say in the
long run, but things can change drastically
from year to year. Te Chiefs overhauled
their engine with upgrades at quarterback
and head coach, while the Denver Broncos
souped up their already potent engine, add-
ing high-volume
pass catcher Wes Welker,
and emerging star Julius Tomas.
Te Chiefs have their best pass rushing
tandem since Derrick Tomas and Neil
Smith.
Te teams will play twice in a three week
span: the frst time on Sunday, Nov. 17, in
Denver, Coloradowhere the Chiefs have
won only twice since 2000and then the
second on Sunday, Dec. 1 in Kansas City,
Mo.
Te Broncos face Indianapolis (4-2) and
San Diego (3-3) on the road, sandwiched
around Washington (1-5) at home before
playing the Chiefs. Ten, the Broncos play
at New England (5-1) between the two
Chiefs games.
Te Chiefs face Houston (2-4) and Cleve-
land (3-3) at home, then Bufalo (2-4) on
the road before Denver. Te Chiefs play
host to San Diego (3-3) in between the
Broncos games.
Tere is a very good chance that these two
teams could each be 9-0 for the big show-
down in Denver. Tere has never been a
matchup of two 9-0 teams in NFL History.
One thing to say about this year, whether
the teams are 9-0 by Nov. 17 or not, is what
used to be viewed as the worst division in
football just a few months ago, could feature
three playof teams. Te AFC West is once
again fexing its muscles like it did in 1998.

Kansas (14-4, 4-1) travels to
Morgantown, W. Va., on Saturday
to face the West Virginia Moun-
taineers (15-4, 2-3) in its second
straight road conference match.
Te Jayhawks landed the No. 23
spot in the latest American Coach-
es Volleyball Association Top 25
poll on Monday afer winning 10
of their last 11 matches, with their
lone loss coming to defending
NCAA champion Texas.
In two matches against the Moun-
taineers last season, the Jayhawks
lost just one set. Aside from that
set, Kansas never surrendered
more than 18 points in a set. Te
Mountaineers fnished 0-16 in the
conference last season and were
picked to fnish last again this year.
Te Mountaineers have fared
much better this season. Tey
have won two conference matches
and are tied with Oklahoma for
the most total wins among Big 12
teams. However, the Mountain-
eers have benefted from a light
pre-conference schedule.
In the NCAA Division I Rating
Percentage Index rankings, West
Virginia ranks No. 66 while Kansas
stands at No. 11. Te rankings take
into account a teams strength of
schedule and looks at team record,
opponent records and where the
game was played.
Kansas leads the conference in
assists, kill and blocks. West Vir-
ginia tops the conference in lowest
hitting percentage allowed with a
.152 mark.
Two of the conferences kill lead-
ers go head-to-head as frst-ranked
West Virginia freshman outside
hitter Jordan Anderson goes up
against fourth-ranked junior out-
side hitter Sara McClinton.
Prior to their loss against Texas,
the Jayhawks had dropped just one
set in their frst four conference
matches.
West Virginia has lost in straight-
sets in its last two matches.
Coming of their frst loss in more
than a month, the Jayhawks topped
the Texas Tech Raiders (8-13, 1-5)
in straight sets 25-16, 25-23, 25-16
on Wednesday in Lubbock, Texas.
Five players recorded at least six
kills to lead a balanced ofensive
attack in the bounce-back win.
Kansas (15-4, 5-1) fell to frst-place
Texas at home on Saturday in four
sets for its frst conference loss of
the season. Coach Ray Bechard
said his team did a good job of not
letting it afect their play.
Tats when you get in trouble is
when you let the losses linger, Be-
chard said. We needed to bounce
back to reach some of our Big 12
goals.
No. 23 Kansas improved to 5-1 in
conference play and is undefeated
in conference road matches.
Te Jayhawks shut down Texas
Tech junior outside hitter Breeann
Davis as they held her to just sev-
en kills on a .043 attack percentage.
Coming into the match, she ranked
second in the Big 12 in kills per set.
Te frst and third sets were rou-
tine for Kansas, but the second set
got of to a slow start afer four at-
tack errors in the frst six points.
Te Red Raiders enjoyed leads of
8-2, 19-12 and 23-18 throughout
the set, but the Jayhawks kept fght-
ing. Redshirt senior middle block-
er, Caroline Jarmoc, took over at
the end of the frame and closed the
set with four consecutive kills to
lead a 7-0 run and take the set. Se-
nior outside hitter Catherine Car-
michael, who helped erase the def-
cit with two kills midway through
the set, said it was a full team efort.
We have really good team chem-
istry, Carmichael said. We know
that we can come back and
win no matter what.
Junior outside hitter Sara McClin-
ton led all players with 13 kills to
go with a .462 attack percentage.
McClinton has now led the team
in kills in fve straight matches.
Jarmoc notched nine kills and fve
blocks in the match including six
kills in the game-changing second
set.
Senior setter Erin McNorton tal-
lied 36 assists and junior outside
hitter Chelsea Albers and senior
libero Brianne Riley each contrib-
uted double-digit digs with 12 and
11, respectively.
Continuing their road trip, the
Jayhawks head east on Saturday
to play an improved West Virginia
team that leads the conference with
16 wins this season.
Teyve made a great turn-
around, Bechard said. It will be
another quality Big 12 opponent
who will have our full attention.

upcoming schedule
Cross Country teams
travel to Indiana
The Kansas Cross Country teams
will travel to Terre Haute, Ind., over
the weekend for the 2013 Indiana
State Pre National Invitational
on Saturday, Oct. 19. After a
very successful frst two meets,
the mens and womens teams
will be facing a stiff step-up in
competition.
The men will be competing
in the 8k race against 74 other
Universities, including Baylor,
California, Clemson, Colorado,
Florida State, Iowa, Kansas State,
Ohio State, Oklahoma, Oklahoma
State, Oregon and many others.
The team will look to build off its
frst place fnish in the Rim Rock
Classic two weeks ago, led by
senior Josh Munsch and juniors
Reid Buchanan, Evan Landes and
James Wilson.
The womens team will be
competing in the 6k race against
85 other Universities, including
Baylor, California and Ohio State.
They fnished second at the Rim
Rock Classic, just behind eleventh
ranked Michigan. Sophomore
Hannah Richardson will lead the
Jayhawks after her seventh place
fnish at Rim Rock.
The Big 12 Championships are
fast approaching. This years events
will be held in Waco, Texas, on Nov.
2.
Look forward to an extensive
recap of the weekends events next
week.
Daniel Harmsen
With no victories in its last four
matches, the Kansas soccer team
(5-7-2, 0-2-1) is heading into
the hardest stretch of its Big 12
schedule with lots of questions.
Te weekend slate for the
Jayhawks is tough as they will face
both last years conference winner,
West Virginia, and conference
tournament winner, Baylor.
Afer their most recent loss to
Texas Christian University on Oct.
11, Francis said that something
has to change.
I have no problem with our
efort, how we competed, Francis
said. At some point, thats not
going to be enough. Te quality
we are showing on the attacking
end of the feld is not good
enough. Tats why we are not
winning games.
Kansas has not scored a goal
since its last nonconference match
against Santa Clara on Sept. 27.
Te Jayhawks currently sit at
eighth place, out of nine teams, in
the conference. Only Oklahoma,
which has four conference losses,
is lower.
On Friday, they will go on the
road to match up with current
Big 12 leader West Virginia. Te
Mountaineers are 5-0 in Big 12
play and are entering the matchup
with a seven-game winning
streak. Currently they are 20th on
the NCAA RPI rankings.
On Sunday, the Jayhawks return
home to face the Baylor Bears.
Te Bears have an overall record
of 8-3-3 and sit in fourth place
in the Big 12 standings with a
1-2-1 record against conference
opponents.
Te Mountaineers have not
lost since Sept. 15. Last weekend,
they bested Iowa State and TCU.
Afer trading goals and fnishing
regulation tied 2-2 against TCU,
the Mountaineers won the game
of the foot of junior forward Kate
Schwindel in overtime.
Schwindel has now scored 10
goals during the season. Tat is
tied with her teammate Frances
Silva with most in the Big 12. Her
performance last weekend, one
goal and one assist against both
Iowa State and TCU, earned her
two awards. She was named the Big
12 Ofensive Player of the Week as
well as the TopDrawerSoccer.com
Player of the Week.
It might be easier for the
Jayhawks to earn a victory against
Baylor. Te Bears best result in
four games came against Texas
Tech last weekend, where the
teams played to a draw. However,
two of their last three losses came
against West Virginia and second-
place Texas.
Baylor is led in scoring by
sophomore forward Bri Campos,
who has fve goals. Te team
has a balanced ofense, as 12
players have scored at least one
goal. Baylors goalkeeper, junior
Michelle Kloss, has an 81.6 save
percentage.
To earn a victory against either
team, the Jayhawks must fnd
a way to capitalize on scoring
chances. In the second half
against TCU, Kansas outshot the
opponent 13-3, but had nothing
to show for it. Junior midfelder
Jamie Fletcher, sophomore
midfelder Liana Salazar and
senior forward Caroline Kastor
have taken the most shots on the
team, and are all still in top 10
in the conference for number of
shots taken.
Ive seen everybody in the
conference play, and I honestly
dont think theres anybody we
cannot beat, but we are not going
to beat anybody if we dont score
some goals, Francis said. Te
way we are playing and competing
is good, but right now thats not
enough.
Kansas will face West Virginia at
7 p.m. on Friday in Morgantown,
W. Va., and Baylor at 1 p.m.
Sunday in Lawrence.

AT A GLANCE
MOMENTUM
PAGE 6B
Head coach Charlie Weis will no longer call the plays and will instead
focus on how to create more space in the offense, which has been
lacking. Wide receiver Justin McCay, who is starting once again, has
a chance to redeem himself after a disappointing season against
his former team. Without junior fanker Tony Pierson, the offense has
to fnd production elsewhere. Junior quarterback Jake Heaps hasnt
had much time to throw all season, and the only way the offense will
change is by fortifying the offensive line. With a vaunted Oklahoma
secondary and missing two defensive linchpins in their front seven in
Jordan Phillips and Cory Nelson, the priority for the Jayhawks should
be to lean on their running game. Senior running back James Sims has
struggled this season and looks to bounce back after only mustering
81 yards on 23 carries at TCU.

The defense has shaped the teams identity so far and the ballhawking
secondary has been as good as advertised, coming off a game where
they forced fve turnovers. The only way to beat a bruising Oklahoma
offense is to get some turnovers and win the feld position game. Blake
Bell struggled last week versus Texas and should face another decent
test in the Kansas secondary.

Junior punter Trevor Pardula has become a prominent part of the Jayhawks season ranking 4th in the country
in punting average. Redshirt-freshman kicker Matthew Wyman is 5-for-8 on feld goals this season.

Junior JaCorey Shepherd has made a transformation that you just dont see anymore, going from a wide
receiver to cornerback. Last week against TCU he tallied up seven tackles, one sack, one forced fumble
and one 32-yard interception returned for a touchdown. Shepard will be lining up against two adequate OU
receivers Jalen Saunders and Sterling Shepard and should have a tough task come Saturday.

Oklahoma walloped the Jayhawks in Norman last October 52-7 with a much better team. This time, head
coach Bob Stoops looks to be motivated after a demoralizing loss to Texas. Under Stoops, Oklahoma is 14-0
in games played immediately after the Red River Rivalry.

After shaking up things on offense, Charlie Weis hasnt had an offensive performance to make you feel good
about development going forward, but he hasnt had a whole lot to work with. Multiple injuries have surfaced,
including Tony Pierson and Andrew Turzilli. The offense needs to see some progress and with Weis taking
over in trying to make the receivers fourish more in the offense, what better chance than this week against a
swarming Oklahoma defense?

Kansas was a couple of missed tackles and some squandering of great feld position from beating TCU, but
thats sort of irrelevant. The defense has carried this team so far in trying to grind out some victories and a
close game against a ranked opponent would be a huge step in the right direction.

Kansas keeps it close for the fans sake. Its on national TV and fans will enjoy the luxury of not having to
wake up early for another letdown, so if Kansas can keep it close then its more or less a victory for the fans.

Can Kansas get some spark on offense? Its been the talk all week and with quarterbacks coach Ron Powlus
and tight ends coach Jeff Blasko calling plays, it remains the biggest focal point of the week. How do you fx
something that is collectively a mess? Better playcalling certainly will help, but most of this is a long-term
process. Progress certainly has to be tangible to see if its in the realm of possibility that it can legitimately
improve.

STARTING LINEUP
OFFENSE
The Sooners offense is built around the running game. It is fast, powerful
and versatile, and the Oklahoma running backs run behind an experi-
enced, accomplished offensive line that dominates the line of scrimmage,
especially preseason All-American center Gabe Ikard. There are six Oklaho-
ma players with at least 100 rushing yards this season.
SPECIAL TEAMS
Junior kicker Michael Hunnicutt leads the nation in feld goals made
with 14 and has missed just one kick this season. Hunnicutt set a
school record making his 49th career feld goal against TCU earlier this
season. He is 10-for-11 so far on kicks of more than 30 yards.
PLAYER TO WATCH
Redshirt-junior quarterback Blake Bell has been most recognized for
his part in the Bell-Dozier package that Oklahoma has run with him
near the goal line. The last two seasons Bell rushed for 24 touchdowns,
but this year Bell has become more of a passer. In victories against
Tulsa, TCU and Notre Dame, Bell looked composed in the pocket and
threw with accuracy, but in last weeks loss to Texas, Bell was fustered
in completing 12 of 26 passes and throwing two interceptions.
AT A GLANCE
The Oklahoma defense is aggressive and talented. The Sooners will put
pressure on Kansas quarterback Jake Heaps and try to force him out of
the pocket and into bad throws. The Sooners offense will play off of its
running game, and they can pound the ball inside with fullback Trey Mil-
lard, or they can get to the outside edge with Brennan Clay and others.
COACHING
With the exception of the Texas game, Bob Stoops seems to have his
defense playing the way the Big 12 has become accustomed to seeing
in his 15 seasons as Oklahomas head coach. There were questions of
whether that would be the case after the Sooners showed some shaki-
ness against the run last season, but the Oklahoma defense is as scary
to go up against as it has been in a few years.

The Sooners rank 12th nationally in points allowed at 16.8 points
per game. If there is a true weakness on the Oklahoma defense it is
the defensive line, which was probably the case even before starting
tackle Jordan Phillips had season-ending back surgery. Senior line-
backer and team captain Corey Nelson is also out for the season with
a partially torn pectoral muscle. The Sooners defense will still play
aggressively, led by senior cornerback Aaron Colvin.
DEFENSE
MOMENTUM
The Sooners were rolling after a 5-0 start against a diffcult schedule
to begin the season, but Texas halted that momentum by thrashing
Oklahoma in the Red River Rivalry 36-20. The bad news for Kansas:
Oklahoma is 14-0 under Stoops in games immediately following the Red
River Rivalry.
BABY JAY WILL WEEP IF
The Oklahoma defense overwhelms the Kansas offensive line. If the line
can give Jake Heaps time in the pocket to let the play develop he can
fnd open receivers and potentially help the run game open up as well.
QUESTION MARKS
Can Blake Bell get back on track after a rough week against Texas? Bell
threw two interceptions, no touchdowns and just 133 yards. The two
interceptions were the frst for Bell this season.

When Scout.com ranked the
2010 class of high school quarter-
backs, Jake Heaps, of Sammamish,
Wash., was ranked the best avail-
able. Heaps was number one. At
number four was Blake Bell; now
quarterback for the Oklahoma
Sooners and Heaps opponent this
weekend at Memorial Stadium. Te
tables have turned.
Both were fve-star quarterbacks
and both have experienced their
share of obstacles, but Heaps is now
in a spot where he didnt exactly see
himself being in 2010. Blake Bell is.
Now quarterbacking an ofen-
sively challenged 2-3 football
squad, Heaps continues to encoun-
ter an endless course of obstacles
with a team that struggles to fnd
the red zone and its not something
hes dealt with before.
Heaps is becoming familiar with
situations that he doesnt see him-
self in. Kansas isnt where Heaps
thought it would be.
I dont know that Ive really been
a part of one, Heaps said. But its
part of the game and this is where
were at as an ofense and we know
what we need to do to improve.
Its safe to say, even for Heaps, that
this isnt where he saw the team at
the beginning of the year.
Not so far, Heaps said. We
thought we would be in a better sit-
uation, but were 2-3 and thats the
way you have to take it. Teres a lot
of football lef in the season.
Next to Charlie Weis, Heaps is
the best ft to turn the struggling
ofense around. Heaps has to deal
with more red fags than yellow
ones: a ball-dropping receiving
crew, an unstable ofensive line,
and constant rotations at nearly
every ofensive position at running
back.
If Heaps wasnt one for such big
adjustments before, he has to be
now.
You just have to take it week by
week, Heaps said. You dont really
look back as much. You just have to
take the week as it comes and pre-
pare the best you can.
On Tuesday, Weis detailed a
drastic change to Kansas of-
fensive proceeding that includes
quarterbacks coach Ron Powlus
taking control of the passing game
and tight ends coach Jef Blasko to
handle the running game and of-
fensive line. Weis rationale behind
the change was so he could spend
more time with skill positions. A
lot of question marks remain as to
how and if this will have any efect
on a stagnant Kansas ofense even
Heaps himself in unsure of who he
will be taking signals from come
Saturday.
Tat really hasnt been addressed
yet, Heaps said.
It should be soon though, before
an angry, 18th-ranked Oklahoma
arrives in Lawrence for their na-
tionally televised date with Kansas
at home this weekend. Oklahoma is
the frst in a tough stretch of sched-
ule for Kansas that includes, in or-
der: Oklahoma, Baylor, Texas, and
Oklahoma State.
You could look at the schedule
and this game like that or you can
see it as an opportunity to have the
18th ranked team on your home
feld and the game on ESPN,
Heaps said.

CHARLESTON, W.Va. Chain
saws are buzzing, axes are fying
and let the wood chips fall where
they may.
Te chain saw competition at
the Mountain State Forest Festival
pitted father and son for bragging
rights as to which West Virginian
could fell more timber in the fast-
est time. Ten as Arden Cogar Jr.
struggled to start his machine, his
79-year-old father sliced through
three slabs of timber, drawing
hoots and hollers from the crowd
as the machine's roar died down.
"He can still whoop my butt any
day of the week," Cogar Jr. said of
his father.
Chopping through wood is a
family tradition for a West Virgin-
ia-based clan that boasts at least
20 members who've cut timber in
various forms of lumberjack com-
petitions.
Members of the Cogar family stay
busy competing about 20 weekends
out of the year. And three of them
soon will take their skills against
competitors from more than 20
other countries at the Stihl Tim-
bersports Series World Champi-
onships Oct. 25-26 in Stuttgart,
Germany.
Arden Cogar Jr. held the nation-
al title for four of the past six years
but was unseated in June by cousin
Matt, who at 26 became the young-
est U.S. overall champion of the Sti-
hl Timbersports circuit.
Te two veterans of the global
circuit will be joined by Matt's fa-
ther, Paul Cogar, whose decades of
work in the logging industry fnally
paid of when he qualifed for the
fve-member U.S. team for the frst
time.
"It's going to be a pretty proud
moment doing that," said Paul
Cogar, 56.
Local and regional competitions
keep the Cogars' skills sharp. In all,
six family members earned prizes
at the recent festival in Elkins, al-
though theirs wasn't the only one
with multiple generations compet-
ing.
Other fathers and sons threw
hatchets at a red bull's eye on a
wood target and worked the long
saw in teams as sawdust piled up
on the stage.
Logging has long been a way of
life in heavily forested West Virgin-
ia, where the arrival of the railroads
in the late 19th century contributed
to the rapid rise of the hardwood
logging and coal industries.
Te Cogar family's roots in log-
ging date to the 1930s, starting
with Arden Cogar Sr.'s father and
brothers.
Eventually, family members be-
gan taking part in competitions
that included a variety of ax, and
cross and chain saw events. Ar-
den Cogar Sr. began competing
a half century ago and set dozens
of world records in lumberjack
sports. His son, Arden Jr., has been
at it for more than 25 years.
While some might think lumber-
jack competitions require the brute
strength of Paul Bunyan, Arden
Cogar Jr. said it's more about tim-
ing and precision similar to golf.
"Your technique is the most im-
portant thing," he said. "It's how
you deliver the ax. It's how you de-
liver the saw. It's not the amount of
pressure. It's how you use what you
have."
Arden Cogar Jr. dusts of any in-
juries he's accumulated over the
years.
"You play with sharp objects, you
get cut. Tat's a fact of life," he said.
"I have a lot of really neat scars."
For his part, Paul Cogar has been
in the logging industry for 39 years.
Matt and Arden Cogar Jr. followed
their respective fathers into lum-
berjack sports but not the logging
industry.
Te burly Arden Cogar Jr. is a
former power weightlifer who
approaches his day job as a civil
defense attorney the same way he
does his role as a competitive lum-
berjack with preparation and
more preparation.
"It's a wonderful release afer a
heck of a work day," said Cogar,
who occasionally hosts practice
sessions with his cousins. "For me,
there's nothing more rewarding
than fnishing of a day by going
home and hitting something that
can't hit me back."
Te 6-foot-4 Matt Cogar, who
has a biology degree and works as a
frearms sales associate for an out-
doors retailer, started competing
at age 12 and won his frst trophy
a year later.
His ultimate goal is to earn a
world championship, which he'll
have the chance to do this month.
He also wants to become one of
the few U.S. lumberjacks to win an
underhand chopping title against a
strong feld in Sydney, Australia.
"Prestige comes with winning,"
Matt Cogar said.
Paul Cogar said there is a sense of
camaraderie with the competition.
But Matt Cogar said the required
degree of focus skyrockets when
the chips start fying.
"Once you step up to the log,
it's time to go," Matt Cogar said.
"Tere's one thing I defnitely
learned a long time ago. It's not
about the person you're racing
against. It's just a competition be-
tween you and the log. You've got
to chop that log and the next guy
has to chop his log. Tat's what the
competition is all about."
Te Cogar men aren't the only
ones who enjoy the family tra-
dition. Kristy Cogar, Arden Jr.'s
wife, won a world women's title in
her fourth year of competing, and
the couple's two daughters, Kiara
and Carmen, also are active in the
sport.
"My daughters have felt that every
woodchopping contest that they go
to is a family reunion," Arden Cog-
ar Jr. said.
Now family members are gearing
up for the world championships.
Matt, Paul and Arden Cogar Jr. are
entered in the team relay event,
while Matt Cogar is scheduled for
some individual events, although
he said he may drop out of that in
order to focus on the team race.
New Zealand has been the gold
medalist in two of the past three
years, but Arden Cogar Jr. says:
"We all had very successful seasons
and ... we will push them hard."

DETROIT A revitalized Austin
Jackson delivered in manager Jim
Leyland's revamped lineup as the
Detroit Tigers built a big lead and
held on this time, beating the Bos-
ton Red Sox 7-3 Wednesday night
to even the AL championship se-
ries 2-2.
Torii Hunter had a two-run double
and Miguel Cabrera drove in two
runs afer Leyland dropped the
slumping Jackson to eighth in the
order and moved almost everyone
else up a place following the Tigers'
1-0 loss in Game 3. Jackson drew
a bases-loaded walk of Jake Peavy
for the frst run of Detroit's fve-run
second inning.
Doug Fister allowed a run in six in-
nings, and afer blowing a 5-0 lead
in Game 2, Detroit kept the Red
Sox at bay Wednesday.
Game 5 is Tursday night in De-
troit. Te Tigers' Anibal Sanchez
faces Boston's Jon Lester in a re-
match of Game 1, which was won
by Detroit 1-0.
Jacoby Ellsbury had four hits for
the Red Sox, fnishing a homer shy
of the cycle.
Te Tigers lost Games 2 and 3,
wasting gems by Max Scherzer
and Justin Verlander. Jackson was
3 for 33 with 18 strikeouts in the
postseason before Wednesday, and
although Leyland lef him in the
lineup, he changed the batting or-
der. Jackson hit eighth, and with
others moving up a spot, it made
for an odd-looking order. Hunter
hit leadof for the frst time since
1999 and Cabrera was second for
only the third time in his career
frst since 2004.
Jackson found himself batting in a
crucial situation right away, with
the bases loaded and one out in the
second. Peavy walked him on four
pitches to force home the game's
frst run.
Te Red Sox had a chance to halt
that rally when Jose Iglesias hit
a potential double play ground-
er to second, but Dustin Pedroia
couldn't feld it cleanly and Bos-
ton had to settle for a forceout at
second that brought another run
home.
Hunter followed with a double
down the line in lef to make it 4-0,
and Cabrera added an RBI single.
Afer walking three batters in the
second inning, Peavy was in trou-
ble again in the fourth. Afer a
leadof double by Omar Infante,
Jackson slapped a single past a div-
ing Pedroia to bring home a run.
Cabrera's single made it 7-0, and
the Detroit third baseman who
has been running even slower than
usual over the last month or so be-
cause of groin problems caught
reliever Brandon Workman and
the Boston defense napping when
he stole second without a throw.
In the ffh, Cabrera looked healthy
enough when he charged Pedroia's
slow grounder, barehanded it and
threw to frst for the out.
Peavy allowed seven runs and fve
hits in three-plus innings.
