P90X delivers 90-day shape-up
BY NANCY WOLENS
nwolens@kansan.com
Phase one begins with the chest and back, push-
ing and pulling throughout a ferce program meant
to fortify, improve and shape the signifcant muscles
of the upper body. Ab Ripper X, a 16-minute work-
out that aims to exercise every realm of the abdo-
men, comes next.
Tat is just the frst day of the three-phase, 90-
day workout P90X has in store for its customers.
Each phase of this home-training system lasts four
weeks and schedules six days of workouts and one
day of cool down. Experts from Beachbody, the
Los Angeles-based company that created P90X,
guarantee their customers will go from regular to
ripped in 90 days.
According to Beachbody.com, P90X includes 12
DVDs with routines focusing on the chest and back,
shoulders and arms, legs, chest and triceps.
I use it everyday, Logan Brown, a senior from
Manhattan, said. What I like about it is that it in-
corporates a lot of diferent workouts that I wouldnt
normally do.
Brown said he really enjoyed the Kenpo X DVD,
which features a cardio workout similar to Tae Bo.
Brown said he also liked using the yoga DVD be-
cause it is a workout he wouldnt ordinarily do.
Other P90X DVDs include Plyometrics, which
consists of 30 highly-charged jumping moves, and

Although the overall num-
ber of crimes went down, the
city of Lawrence saw a sharp
rise in both sex crimes and
driving under the influence
offenses over the last year
when compared to 2008.
Some KU students think
that the lack of knowledge
about the numbers could be
contributing to the problem.
There needs to be a big-
ger awareness of these prob-
lems so they can be avoided,
Lyndsey Carrel, a sophomore
from Spring Hill, said.
The Lawrence Police
Department reported that
there were 163 sex crimes
reported in 2009, which is
an 18 percent increase from
2008, when 138 cases were
reported.
The five crimes that
occurred in Lawrence in
2009 that the Kansas Statutes
define as sex crimes are
rape, forcible sodomy, forc-
ible fondling, incest and stat-
utory rape.
Lawrence saw a significant
increase in the number of
rapes last year; the number of
reported incidents rose from
47 in 2008 to 71 in 2009 a
51 percent jump.
Thats really frightening,
said Renae OKeefe, a sopho-
more from Cleveland, Mo. I
had no idea that the number
of rapes would be that high.
DUIs also saw a rise from
491 in 2008 to 612 in 2009
a 25 percent increase.
Although she is aware of
the potential dangers, OKeefe
admits that going out can
present a slippery slope.
I just always make sure
theres someone with me at
all times, OKeefe said. Its
easy to get caught up in the
scene and be stupid, but you
just have to know better than
that.
Carrel lives by similar
rules.
Lock your doors, use
SafeRide and just avoid bad
situations, Carrel said.

Legislators are reviewing a new
House bill to expand the definition
of domestic violence and help to
better identify offenders early on.
The bill is in response to delayed
convictions of domestic violence
in Kansas.
Representative Pat Colloton,
R-Leawood, said the current laws
in Kansas dont catch offenders
early enough. In Kansas, domestic
violence is defined as battery of
a person, she said. The first two
times the crime is committed it is
a misdemeanor and the third time
it is a felony.
Only three people were con-
victed of domestic violence as felo-
nies in Kansas last year, she said.
And you know there is much more
domestic violence in Kansas than
that.
Other crimes, such as destruc-
tion of property, threats and disor-
derly conduct, are not classified as
domestic violence under the cur-
rent law, said Colloton, vice-chair
for the Committee on Corrections
and Juvenile Justice.
If these offenses were committed
within an intimate partner rela-
tionship, the new bill, HB 2517,
would ask police officers, attorneys
and courts to consider them as
possible domestic violence crimes.
The offenders record would then
receive a domestic violence tag
that would remain on the convic-
tion record, showing incidents of
domestic violence and providing
a better understanding of criminal
history, lawmakers said.
Offenders may also be required
to attend treatment such as anger
management programs.
Colloton said the tags would help
catch domestic violence offenders
before an incident of battery.
The sociologists tell us domestic
violence gets worse and worse with
greater and greater risk, Colloton
said. We want that criminal his-
tory.
The mother and stepfather
of former KU law student Jana
Mackey testified in favor of the bill
last week. Mackey, 25, was killed by
her ex-boyfriend, Adolfo Garcia-
Nunez, 46, in 2008. He reportedly
choked her, struck her and cut her
on the arm with a knife.
Two days after being taken into
custody, Garcia-Nunez committed
suicide.
Tanner Willbanks, a senior from
Hays and former friend of Mackey,
said he thought the bill was a good
idea.
Police will be able to watch
escalations in the crime much eas-
ier, he said.
Willbanks said he didnt know
whether Mackey would still be
alive if a similar bill had been
passed earlier, but that education
is the best way to prevent domestic
violence.
People need to understand that
just because their mom or dad
did it, that doesnt make it right,
he said.

NEW YORK The Dow Jones
industrial average closed below
10,000 for the first time in three
months Monday on nagging con-
cerns about debt loads in Europe.
The Dow, down almost 104
points, had its 10th triple-digit
move in 16 trading days. Shares of
big banks pulled the market lower,
extending a slump that has led to
four straight weekly losses.
Mounting deficits in weaker
European economies including
Greece, Portugal and Spain have
raised questions about the health
of the global financial system.
That compounded concerns about
growth in China and proposed
U.S. bank regulations took the
market down from a 15-month
high reached in January.
Greeces finance minister said
Monday the government is prepar-
ing to boost some taxes to shore
up its finances. But civil servants
opposed to cutbacks have pledged
to strike on Wednesday.
Brett Hryb, a portfolio man-
ager with MFC Global Investment
Management in Toronto, said the
latest concern is that the financial
troubles in a country like Greece,
whose economy is small compared
with the rest of Europe, will spill
into other countries.
Clearly Greece itself is nothing.
Its just a blip. Its what the conta-
gion could be, he said.
Mondays drop extends the
stumble the market began in
mid-January. At that time, China
announced plans to contain eco-
nomic growth and the Obama
administration proposed rules to
restrict trading by large financial
institutions.
The Dow fell 103.84, or 1 per-
cent, to 9,908.39. On Thursday, the
Dow traded below the psychologi-
cal barrier of 10,000 for the first
time since November. It hadnt
closed below that mark since Nov.
4. and first closed above 10,000 in
March 1999. The Dow is still up
51.3 percent since last March.
The broader Standard & Poors
500 index fell 9.45, or 0.9 per-
cent, to 1,056.74, while the Nasdaq
composite index fell 15.07, or 0.7
percent, to 2,126.05.
Bond prices edged higher, push-
ing yields lower. The yield on the
benchmark 10-year Treasury note
was flat at 3.57 percent from late
Friday.
The dollar fell against other
major currencies, while gold rose.
Crude oil rose 70 cents to settle
at $71.89 per barrel on the New
York Mercantile Exchange.
Questions about the glob-
al economy have interrupted a
10-month climb in stocks, which
hit 12-year lows last March. The
Dow is down 817 points, or 7.6
percent, from its recent high of
10,725.43 on Jan. 19.
Jerry Webman, chief economist
at OppenheimerFunds Inc., said
he doesnt expect that problems
with rising debt loads in Europe
will cascade into other parts of the
worlds economy, but he remains
cautious.

Tony Horton, the P90X trainer
and celebrity ftness expert for
Beachbody, has a range of ftness
skills such as circuit, cross and
interval training; weight and resis-
tance training; cardiovascular and
aerobic training and more.
Alan Foster, a junior from Hill
City, said that Tony Hortons style
is defnitely eccentric. He likes his
training, though, because either
Horton or someone else involved
in the workout shows him that the
workouts can actually be done,
Foster said.
My favorite workout is the Ab
Ripper, Foster said. Its really in-
tense. It took me a couple times to
be able to fnish all the repetitions
in the whole workout sequence.
According to Beachbody, the
success of P90X relies on Muscle
Confusion, an exercise system
that continuously establishes new
practices so muscles experience a
constant variation.
Brown said he would defnitely
recommend P90X to people but
that in order for them to see re-
sults, they must follow the work-
out everyday.
Foster, who has noticed results
in his upper body since using
P90X, said its a time consuming
system.
Most of the DVDs are over an
hour, Foster said. But I like it be-
cause you can use it every single
day and not have to do the same
kind of workout over and over
again.

ObITUARY
congressman dies at 77
Rep. John Murtha dies from surgery complications Monday
ASSOCIATED PRESS
HARRISBURG, Pa. Rep.
John Murtha, the tall, gruff-man-
nered former Marine who became
the de facto voice of veterans on
Capitol Hill and later an outspo-
ken and influential critic of the
Iraq War, died Monday. He was
77. The Pennsylvania Democrat
had been suffering from com-
plications from gallbladder sur-
gery. He died at Virginia Hospital
Center in Arlington, Va., with his
family at his bedside, the hospital
said.
In 1974 Murtha, then an officer
in the Marine Reserves, became
the first Vietnam War combat
veteran elected to Congress.
Murthas opposition to the Iraq
war rattled Washington, where he
enjoyed bipartisan respect for his
work on military issues.
Rep. Ed Markey, D-Mass., said
that in part because of Murtha,
America is now on track to
removing all combat troops from
that country by this summer.
President Barack Obama called
Murtha, who was known in his
home state for helping bring
money and projects to areas
depressed by the decline of the
coal and steel industries, a stead-
fast advocate for the people of
Pennsylvania for nearly 40 years
with a tough-as-nails reputa-
tion.
Murtha was born June 17,
1932. The former newspaper
delivery boy left college in 1952
to join the Marines, where he
rose through the ranks to become
a drill instructor at Parris Island,
S.C., and later served in the 2nd
Marine Division. He settled in
Johnstown, then volunteered for
Vietnam, where he served as an
intelligence officer and earned
a Bronze Star and two Purple
Hearts.
State Sen. Don White, an Army
veteran and a Republican who
represents a portion of Murthas
district, said he and Murtha were
longtime friends, despite holding
different political views and serv-
ing in different branches of the
military.
He made sure that
Washington, D.C., knew where
Johnstown, Indiana, Kittanning
and a lot of other sites in west-
ern Pennsylvania were located,
White said.
Survivors include his wife of
nearly 55 years, Joyce, and three
children.

NEW YORK To pull off the
surprise Super Bowl spot he did with
rival David Letterman, Jay Leno flew
secretly to New York on the NBC jet
last Tuesday and managed to sneak
into the Ed Sullivan Theater unde-
tected wearing a hoodie, sunglasses
and a fake mustache.
Rob Burnett, executive producer
of CBS Late Show, said keeping
Lenos participation under wraps
was the key to preserving the effect
of the 15-second promo, which fea-
tured the two late-night comedians
uncomfortably watching the Super
Bowl together, with Oprah Winfrey
trying to keep the peace.
We wanted desperately to keep
this a secret, said Burnett. Most of
the staff didnt know.
At NBC, Lenos executive produc-
er, Debbie Vickers, NBC Universal
Television Entertainment Chairman
Jeff Gaspin and NBC Universal
Chief Executive Jeff Zucker were in
the loop, but few others had a clue
that Letterman and his longtime
rival had joined forces for what was
easily the most unexpected Super
Bowl ad of the night.
In the spot, Letterman is seen on
a couch, glumly munching potato
chips. This is the worst Super Bowl
party ever, he says.
Now, Dave, be nice, responds
Winfrey, seated beside him. The
camera then pulls back to reveal
Leno squeezed on the couch on the
other side of her, with his own bowl
of potato chips. Oh, hes just saying
that cause Im here, the NBC host
says. Letterman then mimics Leno
in a high-pitched voice, prompting
Winfrey to roll her eyes, sigh and
throw up her hands in frustration.
Though Letterman and Leno
have both flung pointed insults
at each other on the air in recent
weeks during NBCs messy late-
night imbroglio, Burnett said the
two men got along well during the
20-minute shoot.
NBC officials had no comment
on Lenos participation in the ad.

W
hen it comes to busi-
ness casual, women
have the luxury of
many options in the world of
dresses, skirts, suits, tights, pants,
heels and blazers. Guys, on the
other hand, have it tough.
At every formal function I at-
tend almost every male is wear-
ing some variation of a button-
up dress shirt, slacks and dress
shoes. Tis look has become
quite the staple in menswear, and
for dressy occasions men tend to
stick with this basic uniform.
Time to mix it up, boys.
When at a formal event, inter-
view or even in an ofce, it can be
difcult for men to set them-
selves apart from everyone else,
especially if they are all dressed
the same. But there is no need to
fall into the depths of wardrobe
monotony. Just follow a few basic
rules, and be willing to experi-
ment.
Pants are pretty much the stan-
dard bottoms for formal dressing.
But shorts are acceptable when
weather appropriate. Cargos are
never formal attire. Keep it simple
with a straight-legged dress pant,
tailored to the correct length be-
tween the top and sole of the shoe
and iron a pleat for sophistication.
Depending on the companion
shirt, pants dont have to be solid.
A small, understated pattern such
as a two-toned herringbone or
thin pinstripe says a little extra
creativity was put into the ward-
robe. To keep cool when wearing
pants on hot days, try a light seer-
sucker or linen. But, be careful;
these fabrics can wrinkle easily.
A button-up dress shirt, though
a safe bet, is not required to look
dressy. But, dont always go with
the popular, drab solids like
grays and dark blue. Try a bright,
cheery color like pale pink, yel-
low, pumpkin or mint green. An
oxford with a pattern goes a long
way. A simple checker, plaid or
stripe will make any outft unique
and will show of originality.
An alternative to the oxford
is a nice, lightweight sweater. A
pullover looks professional with
solids, a light cable knit or classic
prints like argyle. Pair a crewneck
with a blazer or a v-neck over
an oxford and tie. Tis look also
looks great with a sweater vest.
Being a man doesnt eliminate
the opportunity to accessorize. A
belt is a must, but dont just turn
to solid brown or black leather;
show style with braided leather or
a patterned canvas belt.
A tie can take an outft to the
next level, but make sure it is tied
correctly, is the proper length
right above the belt and matches
the outft. Its time to graduate
from clip-ons and zipper ties.
Brooksbrothers.com has tutori-
als for a variety of knots, if still
unsure on how to tie a tie. If a ties
too formal, consider experiment-
ing with bowties in fun prints and
colors.
Use shoes to show of personal-
ity. Instead of the standard pair
of laced dress shoes, try a pair of
loafers. If the occasion permits,
experiment with a dressy pair of
Converses in leather or a profes-
sional print to add some fun and
humor to the look.
Fashion, even for mens busi-
ness casual, is all about self-ex-
pression. Be bold. Just remember
the two vital rules of business
casual: Iron clothes, and always
wear dress socks.

enetic engineering. Te
words are frightening
enough without their
relentlessly malicious portrayal
in popular science fction, from
Aldous Huxleys novel Brave
New World to the flm Gattaca.
Similar to the fears that these
stories invoke, the use of genetic
modifcation in agriculture grows,
and its consumers have become
increasingly wary. Te manipula-
tion of DNA is not a grim vision
of a dangerous future, but rather,
a key component of human prog-
ress.
Genetically modifed (GM)
foods are not a single, simple
product, but are immensely
complex. Tere are many ways to
modify the genetics of agriculture,
with many diferent objectives.
GM foods have been an integral
part of human agriculture for
thousands of years. Humans have
selectively bred crops since the
frst farms were tilled. Te modern
genetic technology to introduce
novel DNA is simply the next step.
Genetic engineering isnt always
about growing bigger crops. Many
foods are engineered to pro-
vide vitamins, proteins or other
nutrients that many impoverished
people have little access to other-
wise. Te genetic modifcation of
foods is so diverse and complex
that few people should have the
hubris to claim to be against it all
together.
Yet, many claim that the intro-
duction of GM food is dangerous
to humans, and the consumption
of the foreign proteins artifcially
introduced could lead to harmful
or allergic reactions.
However, scientists work to
ensure this is not the case; the
foreign genes that are introduced
are rigorously tested for safe hu-
man consumption. In fact, many
natural unmodifed crops may
be even more dangerous.
Furthermore, scientists are
researching ways to decrease the
naturally harmful components of
food by genetic modifcation, such
as creating a strain of peanuts
without the proteins that induce
fatal anaphylactic shock.
Some critics of GM foods claim
artifcial plants harm the environ-
ment. Yet, many GM crops have
much higher yields and can grow
in harsher climates, thus requiring
less farmland to support a popula-
tion. Tis translates into less
deforestation, more efcient farm-
ing, and, ofen, less pesticides.
A world supported entirely by
natural plant species would almost
certainly require mass deforesta-
tion.
Finally, GM foods have faced
trying political setbacks. GM
crops typically have patents, which
makes it difcult for developing
nations to utilize the technology
and reap the benefts. However,
this does not detract from the sci-
entifc safety and efcacy shown
in this agricultural technology.
GM foods are still part of
human technological progress to-
wards better living, and generosity
with such crucial advances should
be shared globally. But this is a
political, not a scientifc, problem.
GM foods are the future of
agriculture, and their potential
for reducing hunger around the
globe cannot be denied. Instead of
rejecting the entirety of geneti-
cally modifed foods, we should
work to promote research and
development of such new forms of
agriculture, to ensure that human
farming is safe for both the con-
sumers and the environment.

The best part of the
super Bowl:
Let me just start of with this
important note: I love football. I
love it more than any other sport.
But the Super Bowl just kind of
bores me.
Last year, I was certain Pitts-
burgh would win even when
Arizona was making big plays.
And theres always the sad feeling
that there wont be any more
football for several months afer
the game ends.
Luckily, the spectacle of the
ofcial end of the NFL season
is great in other respects. Te
commercials are always the most
fun part. Horses do funny things
in the service of beer compa-
nies, awesome movie trailers
are premiered and Tim Tebow
tries to tell us that abortions are
bad. I mean, the poor guy needs
to be remembered during a pro
football game somehow.
Te Saints may have taken
the trophy. But, the real winner

W
ith the recent release
of the human papil-
lomavirus (HPV) vac-
cine for men, all students should
consider the responsible option
of getting vaccinated to protect
themselves and their sexual part-
ners from the dangerous disease.
Te creation of a HPV vaccine
for men emphasizes that women
are not the only ones who should
be concerned with seeking pro-
tection from the most common
sexually transmitted infection in
the United States.
According to the Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention,
the majority of sexually active
men and women get HPV at some
point in their lives.
Generally, it is assumed that
sexual liability rests with the
woman. Tis is not the case.
People infected with HPV rarely
experience symptoms. Te lack
of symptoms means there is an
increased risk of passing it on to a
partner, because many dont know
they have the disease.
Although symptoms can be
minimal, men are still at risk for
getting genital warts, penile can-
cer, anal cancer and cancer of the
throat. Women run a high risk of
developing cancers of the cervix,
vagina or vulva.
Dr. Robert Brown, a physi-
cian at Watkins Memorial Health
Center, said he frequently has
men come in who have bumps
that turn out to be genital
warts. At times the warts can be
pronounced and hard to get rid
of. Te vaccine is a good way to
prevent this prevalent problem.
Men should be as equally
concerned about contracting and
spreading HPV as women are.
Getting vaccinated is something
men should consider doing to
protect themselves and any future
sexual partners from contracting
a disease.
Te Food and Drug Admin-
istration approved the Gardasil
vaccine for men last year, but
the vaccination has been on the
market for women since 2006.
Gardasil is the only cervical
cancer vaccine that helps protect
against four types of HPV. Two
of the types cause 70 percent of
cervical cancer cases. Two more
types cause 90 percent of genital
wart cases.
Now that this type of defense is
available for anyone on campus,
it is another opportunity for stu-
dents to practice safer sex.
Men and women need to re-
search this vaccine to decide if it
is worthwhile for them.
According to the New England
Journal of Medicine, approxi-
mately 60 percent of female
students will become infected
with HPV while in college. Tese
statistics should be as scary for
men as they are for women; the
60 percent of female students
could include the woman with
whom you are having sex.
It is important to be as respon-
sible as your sexual partner, and
this vaccine provides that chance.
It takes two to tango, but women
and men should both take the
lead.

for both men and
women is available at

doesnt measure up to the incred-

of the Super Bowl itself. Take
moments such as David Tyrees
2008 helmet-catch two years ago,
Adam Vinatieris last-second,
game-winning feld goal in 2002
and, of course, Tracy Porters
fourth-quarter interception that
sent the city of New Orleans into a
drunken championship frenzy on
Sunday.
It is moments such as these on a

make the game more important

A new bill introduced by the
Kansas House of Representatives
last week could overturn local
non-smoking ordinances, includ-
ing the smoking ban in Lawrence,
and allow business owners to
bring smokers back inside.
Members of the House
Committee of Health and Human
Services introduced the bill last
week and will conduct a hearing
on Wednesday.
The bill has drawn harsh criti-
cism from anti-smoking organi-
zations because it
provides exemp-
tions for busi-
nesses to allow
indoor smok-
ing and disables
c o mmu n i t i e s
from passing
local ordinances.
While the
bill would out-
law smoking
in enclosed areas statewide, it
would also allow bars and res-
taurants the option to create des-
ignated smoking areas by paying
an annual fee of $1 per square
foot of smoking space.
Gov. Mark Parkinson, who
has made passing a statewide
smoking ban a priority, called
the House bill a ridiculous piece
of public policy and vowed to
veto it at a news conference last
Friday.
[The bill] not only doesnt
ban public smoking, it repeals the
ordinances in communities that
have had the courage to actually
ban public smoking, Parkinson
said.
Lawrences smoking ban has
been in effect since 2004 largely
because of anti-smoking agencies
such as the Clean Air Lawrence
Coalition, which strongly oppos-
es the new bill.
Kathy Bruner, coordinator for
the coalition, said she thought the
new bill went against American
cultures general disapproval of
public tobacco use.
It would decrease our quality
of life if it was passed, but I dont
believe that it will, Bruner said.
I think the people in Lawrence
are much more intelligent than
that and I dont think they would
stand for it.
Don Sayler, president of
the Kansas Restaurant and
Hospitality Association, said that
a statewide bill needed to pass to
ensure equal business opportuni-
ties for owners. While Sayler said
his organiza-
tion had taken
a neutral stance
to the pro-
posed bill, he
said members
were submit-
ting testimony
in support of
the new provi-
sions concern-
ing business
exemptions.
If smoking is that bad, then
go after the product, dont go
after the operators, he said. Its
a legal product, yet the govern-
ment thinks they need to inter-
vene and tell an operator how to
run his business.
Many who oppose the bill,
including Paula Clayton, at the
Kansas Department of Health
and Environment, have called for
a statewide proposal that would
allow local ordinances to remain
in effect.
Clayton said her depart-
ment would not support the bill
because it provided no real pro-
tection from secondhand smoke.
Lawrence is one of 36 cities in
Kansas with an indoor smoking
ban in jeopardy of being over-
turned if the bill were to pass.

Among other reasons, they cite a
decision by the judge at roeders
trial last month to not allow jurors

voluntary manslaughter.
such court flings are routine,

Jayhawks No. 1 in AP Poll
Basketball ticket pick-up for KSU and Oklahoma goes through Wednesday.
Don't forget your tickets

Without their best long range
shooter, the Jayhawks have slightly
changed their plans and brought
things inside.
Senior guard Danielle McCray
tore the ACL in her left knee dur-
ing Thursdays practice, promptly
ending her career at Kansas.
So when Kansas defeated Kansas
State 70-60 Sunday, it was derived
from a recipe of doing more of
everything that McCray didnt.
Weve got to establish an inside
game, throw it to them early to
give them some confidence and get
some bigs in foul trouble, coach
Bonnie Henrickson said.
Freshman guard Monica
Engelman assumed McCrays
starting position and led her team
in scoring with a career high 16
points in a full 40 minutes of play.
But Engelman is no McCray. Skill-
wise, someday perhaps. Role-wise,
as of now, nowhere close.
I think she went 4-for-6 in the
sets that typically are for Danielle,
Henrickson said. But Monicas
been in that spot as Danielles been
in foul trouble.
Engelman was efficient in con-
verting six-of-nine shots Sunday,
but her shooting totals indicate that
she is a popular option, but not the
primary one. Through 20 games
this season, McCray averaged just
below 16 shot attempts per game.
In only one of those 20 games did
she attempt fewer than 10 shots
as Engelman
did Sunday in a
full 40 minutes.
Reason being for
the lone anoma-
ly, McCray was
benched because
of severe foul
trouble. She
recorded just 28
minutes of play
in a 54-49 victo-
ry against UCLA
on Dec. 3.
By no means is this is a criticism
of Engelman. It would be unwise
of her to shoot as much as McCray
in her first career start, especially
considering the success that she
had by taking just nine shots. But
if Engelman isnt taking those
approximate seven extra shots that
McCray fired away, someone else
is.
Thats where Henrickson con-
siders some interior design.
We need production from the
posts, junior forward Nicollette
Smith said. Bonnie has been
pounding that into our brains.
Henrickson didnt even both-
er playing junior guards Marisha
Brown or Rhea
Codio for a
single min-
ute Sunday.
While it was
mostly because
E n g e l m a n
and senior
guard Sade
Morris played
just about the
entire game
(Morris sat
just one minute), the decision was
also based on the need to integrate
junior center Krysten Boogaard
into the rotation.
Shes got to keep people off the
glass, Henrickson said. I chal-
lenge her daily to be better on the
defensive boards.
Henrickson allotted bench min-
utes based on her teams needs. She
gave Smith and Boogaard a total
of 29 minutes, while senior Kelly
Kohn was the only guard off the
bench with just three minutes.
Yesterday I felt like it was the
right thing to do, Henrickson said.
I felt like our kids never got real
fatigued.
Despite using a three guard
starting lineup, 35 of Kansas 70
points were scored by forwards
and centers.
The emphasis on getting the ball
to the post players cashed in when
one might have thought that the
only prize had just gone down to
injury. No McCray, no problem.
Kansas forced the ball inside and
attacked the rim for high percent-
age and often uncontested shots.
As a result, Kansas finished with a
pristine 56 percent shooting from
the field.
I dont think we took a bad shot
in the game, Morris said. We
were getting layups and knocking
down free throws and that helped
our percentage.

Junior center Krysten Boogaard shoots over Kansas State forward Branshea Brown. Boogaard hit
3-of-4 fromthe feld for six points in the 70-60 win at Allen Fieldhouse on Sunday.
She's got to keep people
of the glass. I challenge
her daily to be better on
the defensive boards.

Henrickson challenges forwards' performance
Women's basketball
I
f you bet that the Jayhawks
two preseason All-Americans
would be the ones branding
the Longhorns on Monday night,
you were wrong.
Who would have ever thought
that going into the season that
wed win at Texas with Sherron
and Cole going 5-for-23? Bill Self
asked after the game.
Sherron Collins and Cole
Aldrich did just shoot a combined
5-for-23 from the field, but Kansas
still won by 12 points in Austin.
From the beginning, Kansas
did an outstanding job of spread-
ing the ball around. The trend
continued and 12 minutes into the
game, three Jayhawks had taken
five shots, two had taken three,
two had taken one and one had
taken four.
This balance was a key to the
Jayhawks 22-0 run that separated
them from the Longhorns in the
first half. During that 22-0 run,
seven different players scored and
no one person scored more than
five points.
This game was a showcase of
Kansas talent away from Collins
and Aldrich.
It was a good win because
were becoming a team, Self said.
Were not having to rely on one
or two guys. Other guys are step-
ping up.
Marcus Morris is one player
who helped turn attention away
from Collins and Aldrich.
Morris has quickly become Mr.
Reliable for the Jayhawks. He led
the team with 18 points and was
second in rebounding and assists.

Jayhawks overtake Longhorns
Marcus, Xavier save
Kansas from slow start

AUSTIN, Texas Marcus Morris sat after the game
tapping his dislocated finger on the table.
I cant really feel it; its cool, he said about his right
middle finger. Its not going to stop me from playing.
I tore something.
Despite the damaged digit, Morris continued his Big
12 surge, leading the Jayhawks with 18 points and eight
rebounds in their 80-68 victory against Texas Monday.
But it wasnt as competitive of a game as most
expected. In the first five minutes, Texas looked like the
better team, and Kansas could do nothing except turn
the ball over.
All of a sudden, trailing 8-14, the Jayhawks came
alive, going on a 22-0 run with solid defense and
mistake-free offense.
Finally, after a series of games where the Jayhawks
looked anything like No.1, they showed it against the
Longhorns.
Xavier Henry had a strong showing with 15 points
on 6-of-13 shooting, but didnt notice his team was tak-
ing over the previously ranked No.1 Longhorns.
I didnt even know we went on a 22-0 run. I was just
excited to be playing, he said. I knew we were scoring
and playing good defense. I was just watching.
They also showed on the glass, where the Jayhawks
outrebounded the Longhorns 45-34 even though both
were regarded as two of the biggest teams in the
nation.
We have a lot of fault on our team as far as rebound-
ing and defending, Morris said. I think we came out
real aggressive. I think we took the first punch and
never let up.
The length of the Longhorns did make life difficult
for Cole Aldrich. Aldrich, who did have six blocked
shots, went 2-of-10 from the floor and ended up fouling
out with just under four minutes to go.
He blamed his unsuccessful night on Texas Dexter
Pittman.
Theres a few I should have kicked out, but there are
some big guys down there, he said.
Aldrich was hit with a technical for throwing an
elbow after the play was blown dead. He said it was
unintentional.
Free throws off the technical and an and-one play by
Texas brought the Longhorns within eight with about
3:40 to go.
But the Jayhawks held on in a drawn-out finish to an
otherwise uncompetitive game.
Coach Bill Self said he was glad to get through a
game like this, as weird and unpredictable as it was.
It didnt have any rhythm either way, which prob-
ably helped us, Self said. But it feels good to win a
muddy game.

D
ear Sherron,
Ive spent the past four years
watching you grow. Youve
blossomed from a blazing quick change
of pace off the bench to one of the best
point guards, and players, in the nation.
Youre a true leader on and off the court,
a guy that demands the most from his
teammates and makes them better.
I was watching as you stole the
inbounds pass and buried that crucial
three from the corner against Memphis.
And when you blasted Oklahoma for five
deep triples last season. Or just last week,
when you bulled your way to the bucket
and laid it off the window to topple the
Wildcats in the Octagon of Doom.
Your maturation has been incred-
ible to watch. From quiet freshman to
outspoken senior, from top reserve to
one of the greatest Jayhawks of all time
youve given Kansas fans almost more
than they could have asked for. But I
have one more request to make before
you play your last game as a Jayhawk.
(Bill Self is not going to be happy
about this one).
Please, just one time, throw one down
at Allen Fieldhouse.
Now I know youve probably dunked
in practice, or in a Late Night outing that
I missed, but just know that Im talking
about an in-game slam.*
*Perhaps some of you doubt the 511
Collins leaping ability in the first place.
If thats the case, then let me direct you
to your new favorite YouTube clip: search
for Sherron Collins Dunk on YouTube.
And in case youre not by a computer,
heres what youre missing out on:
Collins, not yet clad in crimson and
blue (well, blue anyway hes on the red
team in the McDonalds All-American
game) receives the ball on a breakaway as
time is about to expire. He then dribbles
once before firing an underhand pass
off the glass, not to the trailing Kevin
Durant, but to himself. Collins then
soars into the air and hammers it down
with the left hand (!) like a cornrowed
Nate Robinson.
Sure, you carry a bit more muscle
these days and your knees have four
more years of mileage on them, but we
all know better than to question your
athleticism. So just close your eyes and
move that scene to the Fieldhouse.
Imagine slamming one home, inciting a
maniacal chorus of cheers in the Phog
and demoralizing the opposition in the
process.
And aside from another NCAA tour-
nament run (and, fingers crossed, anoth-
er national title), what better parting gift
can you give the fans than that?
So come on, Sherron youve got
four games left.
P.S. Dunking in the home finale, a
March 3 contest against Kansas State,
would be especially sweet.

Xavier Henry
Marcus Morris was the best player on the foor
for the Jayhawks, but considering Xavier Henrys
recent struggles, he gets the nod in this slot. He
had 15 points on 6-of-13 shooting to go along
with fve rebounds and two assists. The most
impressive stat fromHenry, though, was his zero
turnovers in 31 minutes of play. Hes averaged
3.5 in 22.5 minutes over the last four games.
The Jayhawks had 27 points of
turnovers to the Longhorns fve. It
was largely a product of not turn-
ing the ball over Kansas fnished with only 10 and forcing the
Longhorns into 17 turnovers. The biggest reason, though, was
arguably Kansas most dominant defensive efort of the season.

In eight of the Jayhawks nine conference
games, Morris either led the team or was
second in scoring.
We had some guys step up, Self said.
Marcus Morris was great.
However, Morris wasnt the only Jayhawk
who stepped up against the Longhorns.
Xavier played the best game that hes
maybe played all year, Self said. He was
really good and we needed that. We just kind
of pieced it together.
Xavier Henry also helped make up for
Collins and Aldrichs poor shooting. Henry,
who had failed to reach double digits in
scoring in the Jayhawks previous five games,
broke out of a slump and scored 15 points,
while making 6 of 13 shots fromthe field.
Henrys six field goals were the most hes had
since the Dec. 19 game against Michigan.
Seven Jayhawks scored at least seven
points last night and while that scoring
distribution stands out, there were other
aspects of the Jayhawks offense that helped
contribute to the overall success of the game.
I thought offensively we were great,
Self said. They trapped us and we passed
through the traps. We had long possessions
where they fouled us.
If the Jayhawks can mimic their offensive
success last night against the Longhorns,
they will have a memorable finish to the
season.

Texas came into Mondays much-hyped match-
up with one certifable fact. Tey could score the
basketball.
Trough the frst 23 games of the season, there
wasnt a teamin the Big 12 that was averaging more
points per game than the No. 14 Longhorns, who
were scoring more than 84 per contest.
Credit Cole Aldrich, credit Brady Morningstar,
credit really anyone who saw minutes for the Jay-
hawks Monday night, because holding the Long-
horns to 16 points below their season average in an
80-68 victory took the entire Kansas roster.
Tats a main part of our team, Marcus Morris
said. Weve got a lot of guys you can go to. Xavier
stepped up big today. We needed him to step up
today. Sherron stepped up at the guard position
and Cole got in early foul trouble but he rebound-
ed big. Markief gave us good minutes and I did
OK.
Te most telling defensive statistic of the night
was the 22-point margin in points of turnovers.
Not only were the Jayhawks forcing turnovers
they forced 17 and scored 27 points of them
but also on the rare occasion that they turned the
ball over, they were quick enough back that Texas
still couldnt fnd a way to score.
Outside of Damion James, who just might be
the best all-around player in the country, and
JCovan Brown, who hit even contested shots late,
the Longhorns managed just 16 points.
Te Jayhawks transition defense was dominant
at worst Monday night, holding Texas to just two
fast break points. Kansas had success holding the
Longhorns and their quick guards Self called
Dogus Balbay probably the best athlete in the
conference Friday because everyone was get-
ting back on defense.
We made them go against fve guys, which
was very efective until JCovan got hot late, Self
said. I thought we guarded really good. We didnt
guard Damion in the frst half, but other than that
we played great.
Aldrich was his usual self in dominating the
middle defensively fnished with a game high
six blocks and Morningstar did his usual phe-
nomenal defensive work on the perimeter, picking
three steals and causing general havoc for Texas
backcourt.
Te Jayhawks were able to hold massive Texas
center Dexter Pittman of the boards and of the
scoreboard for most of the night. Pittman, who
measures in at 6 feet 10 inches and 290 pounds,
managed just three points and three boards on the
night, and the Jayhawks won the rebounding battle
45-34.
We knew they were a good rebounding team,
Henry said. Tey talked about them all week as
being a good rebounding team, so we just had to
go out and rebound and be tough.
Morris was hesitant to crown the Jayhawks as a
dominant team, though.
I dont think theres a dominant team, Morris
said. We have a lot of faults on our team as far as
rebounding and guarding. I think we came out real
aggressive against these guys. I think we took their
frst punch and never let up.
Te Jayhawks may have had faults early in the
season in terms of rebounding and defense, but
those woes vanished Monday night.
Tey were a dominant team.

1ST HALF
(SCORE AFTER PLAY)
17:15 Sherron collins was
upset after being called for an

an angry Sherron can be a bad

a three, starting the defning

10:18 After a fewfailed
possessions on both teams,
Markief Morris brought the
drought to an end by tying the
game with a three. (14-14)
4:52 Sherron collins was

were on and nailed a three
with a defender in his face.
That capped a 22-0 run for the
Jayhawks. (30-14)
2ND HALF
19:42 Damion James turned
the ball over to start the sec-

it in for a dunk. (36-24)
10:55 After a bunch of
dribbling and a spin move,
Marcus Morris found an open
lane fromthe top of the key
and bolted ahead for a layup.
(48-32)
8:59 Sherron collins had a
pretty behind the back pass to
cole Aldrich. He didnt fnish
the dunk he started, but it

Saints coach basks
in Super Bowl win
NfL
Mcclatchy-tribune
FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla.
Theres no telling when or even if
hell ever experience this moment
again. So Saints coach Sean Payton
tried to make the experience last
as long as he possibly could.
After his Saints beat the Colts,
31-17, in Super Bowl XLIV, Payton
slept with the Vince Lombardi
Trophy.
This thing laid in my bed next
to me, Payton said, pointing to
the trophy Monday morning at
a news confer-
ence before the
Saints returned
home to a diz-
zying welcome
from their fans.
I rolled over a
couple times,
and I probably
drooled on it,
man. Nothing
like being an
NFL coach and
being part of this with great play-
ers like Drew Brees. I dont take
that lightly. Im honored.
The most unforgettable season
in Saints history came to a trium-
phant end Sunday night, as MVP
Brees brought the Saints back from
a 10-0 deficit to give the franchise
its first Super Bowl title in the
teams 43-year history. But theres
no guarantee of what comes next,
and whether the Saints can dupli-
cate this years run any time soon.
If the Saints are to pull off a rare
Super Bowl repeat the last one
being the Patriots in Super Bowls
XXXVIII and XXXIX theyll
have to do it with a different ros-
ter. The Saints face numerous off-
season decisions that could have a
significant impact on which play-
ers return next season, and which
depart as free agents or in trades.
Theres plenty of uncertainty
regarding tailback Reggie Bush,
the No. 2 overall pick in the 2006
draft. Bush has become a backup to
Pierre Thomas and is used mostly
out of the backfield as a receiver,
meaning the Saints might want to
part ways because of his bloated
salary; he counted for more than
$12 million on their 2009 salary
cap, and he is due to make more
than $8 million in 2010.
Thomas is a restricted free
agent, and the Saints might want
to make a longer-term commit-
ment with him over Bush. Other
restricted free agents include Pro
Bowl guard Jahri Evans and strong
safety Roman Harper.
Free safety Darren Sharper,
whose nine interceptions were tied
for the NFL lead, is an unrestricted
free agent, as is linebacker Scott
Fujita.
But many other key players will
be in place next season, including
Brees, linebacker Jonathan Vilma,
and wide receiv-
er Marques
Colston.
The Colts,
me a n w h i l e ,
have most of
their key play-
ers returning
next season,
and Peyton
Manning is
expected to
sign a contract extension that will
make him the highest-paid player
in the NFL. The biggest unrestrict-
ed free agent is middle linebacker
Gary Brackett, and he is likely to
get plenty of interest around the
league. Despite the Super Bowl
loss, the Colts will likely go into
next season among the favorites to
come out of the AFC once more.
This will only make us hun-
grier for next season, and well
come back and regroup, coach
Jim Caldwell said.
For now, the moment belongs to
the Saints. The magic was perhaps
best summed up by this scene
late Sunday night, when Saints
quarterbacks coach Joe Lombardi,
grandson of former Packers coach
Vince Lombardi, was photo-
graphed holding the trophy named
for the venerable coach:
Joe Lombardi, his father, Vince
Jr., and his two brothers sat and
posed with this trophy, the four of
them, while pictures were taken,
Payton recalled. I just thought
to myself, Youve got to be kid-
ding me. If you believe in heaven,
and you believe Vince Lombardi is
there looking down on his grand-
son, it doesnt get any better.
Nothing like being an
NFL coach and being part
of this with great players
like Drew Brees.

INDIANAPOLIS Matt Howard
scored 20 points to lead No. 18
Butler past Loyola of Chicago 62-47
on Monday night for the Bulldogs
13th straight win as they clinched at
least a share of their fourth straight
Horizon League regular season
title.
Willie Veasley added 12 points
and eight rebounds for the Bulldogs
(21-4, 14-0), who matched the
second-longest winning streak in
school history.
Walt Gibler and Geoff
McCammon each scored nine
points for the Ramblers (13-11,
4-10), who have lost six of their past
seven games against Butler.
Despite shooting 22 percent
from the field in the first half, the
Bulldogs trailed only 26-24 at half-
time. Butler started the game shoot-
ing 2 of 18 as the Ramblers took a
15-6 lead 9 minutes in.
Veasleys five straight points early
in the second half broke a 29-29
tie and gave the Bulldogs their first
lead since they scored the first two
points of the game. Butler used a
15-8 run over the next 8 minutes to
open a 49-37 lead. Shelvin Macks
3-pointer capped the spurt.
Butler finished at 36 percent from
the field one game after shooting
nearly 68 percent in Saturdays vic-
tory over Wright State.

MORGANTOWN, W.Va.
Scottie Reynolds scored 19 of his
21 points in the final 13 minutes
and No. 4 Villanova held off No.
5 West Virginia 82-75 on Monday
night.
The Wildcats (21-2, 10-1)
rebounded from a blowout loss at
No. 7 Georgetown on Saturday to
pull into a first-place tie with No.
2 Syracuse in the Big East.
West Virginia (19-4, 8-3)
led only in the games opening
minutes, couldnt overcome an
11-point halftime deficit and
saw its six-game winning streak
snapped. The Mountaineers will
have to wait until Friday night at
No. 25 Pittsburgh to try for their
sixth straight 20-win season.
Corey Fisher added 17 points
and Antonio Pena had 10 for
Villanova in the seasons first
matchup of teamed ranked in the
top five.
Darryl Bryant led five
Mountaineers in double figures
with 15 points. Devin Ebanks and
DaSean Butler had 13 apiece.
Villanova shot 57 percent (29
of 51) from the field and out-
rebounded the Mountaineers
38-30. West Virginia didnt help
its cause at the free-throw line,
finishing 18 of 32.
This was West Virginias first
home game since fans threw
objects onto the court last
Wednesday, one of which struck
Pittsburgh assistant coach Tom
Herrion under his right eye.
WVU President Jim Clements
apologized to the University of
Pittsburgh and declared that
boorish and unruly behavior by
our fans will not be tolerated.
Students behaved themselves
this time. They scrapped a derog-
atory chant typically done dur-

Butler couldnt rescue West
Virginia from the latest of many
double-digit deficits this season.
He scored a season-high
33-points as West Virginia rallied
from 16 points down in the sec-
ond half to beat St. Johns 79-60 on
Saturday. Last season he torched
Villanova for a career-high 43
points at home, but the Wildcats
held him in check Monday night.
Butler didnt get his first points
until a 3-pointer with 8:40 left in
the first half and was held without
a field goal in the second half.
He finished just 2 of 12 from the
field.
West Virginia picked up its
defensive intensity after halftime,
holding Villanova without a field
goal for the first 6 minutes. But
the Mountaineers did little on
offense.
Every time West Virginia was
poised to make
a run, Reynolds
was there to
answer.
Limited to
two points in
the first half,
Reynolds hit a
3-pointer and
converted two

3-minute span
to push Villanovas lead to 58-47

Casey Mitchell gave West
Virginia a flicker of hope with

Mountaineers within 74-69, but
Villanova converted six of eight

PHILADELPHIA Mike

with less than eight minutes left

from behind

Martin Brodeur,
and Flyers
goalie Michael
Leighton made
that stand up.
James van
Riemsdyk and
Jeff Carter also scored to help the
Flyers rally from a 2-0 deficit and
snap a two-game losing streak.
Zach Parise and Anssi Salmela
scored for the Devils, who have
lost 10 of 14.
Salmela left the ice on a stretcher
after scoring when he took a hard
shoulder to the face from Carter.
There was no immediate word on
his condition.
Moments after his short-handed
goal, a wrister past Leightons glove
side that gave New Jersey a 2-0
lead, Salmela was struck by Carter
as he skated by. Salmela tumbled to
the ice and remained face down for
several minutes, until the Devils
medical staff wheeled him off.
The 25-year-old Salmela arrived
in last weeks trade with Atlanta
that brought Ilya Kovalchuk to
New Jersey, and was playing in his
second game with his new team.
The goal was his first with the
Devils and sec-

when he split two defenders and
wristed a shot past Brodeurs glove
side from just above the faceoff
circle. Carter followed by taking
Scott Hartnells cross-ice pass and
slammed a one-timer past a tum-
bling Brodeur.
Parise scored New Jerseys first
goal when his attempt to center the
puck from just below the faceoff
circle glanced off Chris Prongers
skate and past Leighton. It came
during a power play seven minutes
into the game.

The Mountain West Conference
is doing some serious climbing.
A league that has always had to
fight for respect as it tries to join
the ranks of the power conferenc-
es, the 11-year-old Mountain West
had three teams in The Associated
Press Top 25 on Monday, one
more than the Atlantic Coast
Conference and three more than
the Pac-10.
Kansas (22-1) remained the run-
away No. 1, receiving 55 first-place
votes from the national media
panel. Syracuse (23-1), which
received eight first-place votes,
moved up one spot to become the
fourth No. 2 in as many weeks.
The ranking is the highest for the
Orange since a six-week stretch at
No. 1 in 1989-90.
Kentucky (22-1), which was No.
1 on two ballots, moved up one
place to No. 3, while Villanova and
West Virginia, which met Monday
night, were fourth and fifth.
New Mexico, BYU and UNLV,
which are in a three-way tie for first
place in the Mountain West, give
the league three teams in the Top
25 for the first time.
BYU, New Mexico and UNLV
are reaping the benefits of unprec-
edented national television expo-
sure and enhanced non-conference
scheduling, Mountain West com-
missioner Craig Thompson said in
a statement. All three teams have
really extended their schedules and
some very quality wins are now
being reflected. It is a real tribute to
the coaches to see Top 25 matchups
each week in Conference play as
well.
No. 15 New Mexico (21-3) is
ranked for the third straight week
and seventh overall. BYU (22-3)
dropped five places to 17th fol-
lowing its 88-74 loss to UNLV, the
game that forged the three-way
tie for first and moved the Rebels
(19-4) back into the poll at No. 23.
BYU has been ranked for six
straight weeks, while UNLV jumps
back in after being out the last
eight weeks. The Mountain West
has sent more than one team to the
NCAA tournament in nine of the
last 10 years.
Its been a push of our league
the last several years, New Mexico
coach Steve Alford said. We
already felt our league has been
at that point for a while now. Its
good to start getting some national
respect. I think weve got some
really good players and some really
good teams.

Georgia Tech in this weeks poll,

Nebraska keeps winning and
climbing up the Top 25.
The unbeaten Cornhuskers
(21-0) moved past Notre Dame
to No. 3 on Monday in The
Associated Press womens bas-
ketball poll. Nebraska trailed the
Irish in the poll by 27 points last
week, but were buoyed by victo-
ries over then-No. 10 Oklahoma
State and 12th-ranked Texas
A&M to move two points in
front.
They are still undefeated and
are beating some pretty good
teams, said voter Paul Zeise of
the Pittsburgh Post Gazette, who
had Nebraska No. 2 on his ballot
this week. Theyve played a lot
of teams that have been ranked
in the top 10 and beat them all.
They havent really had a close
game.
Sounds like a familiar scenario
to UConn, which remained No.
1 for a record 38th straight week.
The Huskies (23-0) routed West
Virginia and Louisville this week.
Connecticut has won 62 straight
games, all by double digits.
Stanford remained second with
Notre Dame falling to fourth
despite winning twice this past
week and Tennessee fifth.
While there wasnt much sur-
prise at UConns continued suc-
cess, the Cornhuskers didnt even
start the season ranked and didnt
crack the Top 25 until the fourth
week of the season. Before this
run, Nebraskas highest ranking
had been 12th in 1997.
Nebraska, which will visit
Kansas on Wednesday and
Missouri on Saturday, has won
most of its games by double dig-
its with Miami being the only
team to come within five points.
