Students riding the University
buses may have to do a little more
walking than riding during the
frst week of classes. Road con-
struction on Sunnyside has caused
three bus routes to be rerouted.
Its just not going to be as
convenient, said Danny Kaiser,
assistant director of KU Parking
and Transit.
Construction on Sunnyside
began August 17, and accord-
ing to KU Parking they expect
construction to be completed no
later than Friday. Te bus routes
that are rerouted consist of Route
27, which will drop of riders
and roundabout at Chi Omega
Fountain, Park and Ride Route
41, which will travel up and down
Jayhawk Boulevard, and Route
42, which will be dropping of
passengers at Chi Omega Fountain
as well before heading north on
Naismith Drive and onto West
Campus Road.
People parking in the blue
lots located on Sunnyside must
enter the road from the eastern
side. Some of halls and buildings
afected by the road construction
include Haworth, Summerfeld
and Dole. Lot 54, west of Murphy
Hall, is still under construction,
but the project should not afect
students or drivers.
All other University bus routes
will begin running as usual to-
morrow.
We will get you there as fast as
we can, Kaiser said.

rence bus routes.

CAMPUS CONSTRUCTION
Construction changes several
bus routes across campus
Afer months of writing,
fundraising and other pre-
production work, two Lawrence
flmmakers are excited to see their
debut flm fnally coming to fruition.
Lawrence resident Jesse
McGinness and business student
Will Friederich met their $4,500
goal on Kickstarter in late July
for the flm they co-wrote and are
co-directing, God, Grant Me, a
story about a pill
addict and cancer
survivor who form a
special relationship
afer meeting in
a support group.
With the money
for new and better
equipment, the
two began flming
in Lawrence
early August,
but Friederich
says hes happy
to fnally put the fnancials
aside and just do what he loves.
Its been awesome being on
set because thats my element,
he said. Especially coming
from pre-production where you
have to internalize and visualize
everything, its great to be able
to do tangible things like move
a camera or set up lights now.
McGinness says they are nearly
done shooting the flm and have
begun the editing process, which
has been the most rewarding
part of production for him so far.
A lot of the ideas behind this
movie saved my livelihood at
one point or another, and seeing
my acting staf on screen now
and watching them physically go
through these same revelations I
had, its nothing short of beautiful.
McGinness says that since
beginning production, the two are
using their inexperience in directing
as a means of learning as they go.
Weve both read interviews and
stuf about self-directing and all
these theses, but none of it really
mattered when we hit the set, he
said. Weve started to realize that
you can only learn how to do things
the right
way by just
messing them
up horribly
and then
looking back
on what you
did wrong.
Along with
l e a r n i n g
the craf of
fi l mmaking,
Fr i e d e r i c h
says the co-
directors have had to learn to adjust
to each others difering styles.
We both have strengths in
entirely diferent areas and
weaknesses in entirely diferent
areas, but thats okay, he said. Hes
had to teach me how to nail things
out and get things done in a timely
manner, and I think Ive taught
him a lot about visuals and things
like that that are very important.
God, Grant Me was partially
funded through Kickstarter, a
fundraising website that allows
people to donate to various projects,
but the project only receives
the money if its predetermined
goal is met by a certain deadline.
Te flm met its goal in the last
hour with 69 backers donating
a total of $4,530. One of those
backers is Michelle Leatherby,
a graphic design student at the
University from Fayetteville,
Ark. As a photographer herself,
she said it was important to
her to help fellow artists see
their work come to fruition.
I think its important as an artist
to support other artists work,
even if its a completely diferent
feld, she said. Its just nice to
be able to help other people with
their projects, because I believe
if I had a project they would help
fund it as well. Its a real give and
take in the artist community.
McGinness and Friederich plan
to fnish and submit the flm
in early November to various
festivals, including South by
Southwest. If accepted, they hope
to debut it in Lawrence this spring.

TRANSPORTATION CRIME
Lawrence puts new
bus purchases on hold
LAWRENCE, Kan. Lawrence
city leaders are putting the brakes
on plans to purchase new buses in
order to give another look at using
compressed natural gas to power
the public transportation feet.
Te city had planned to buy
three diesel and diesel-electric
hybrid buses, but the lower cost
of natural gas is prompting a
second look to see if it might
be more fnancially feasible to
go with an alternate fuel source.
Tis seems like the sort of
thing that if we dont at least
consider making the switch, we
may look back 20 years from
now and regret it, said City
Commissioner Jeremy Farmer.
Te Lawrence Journal-World
reported the city conducted a
feasibility study four years ago
that compared the fuel costs, but
it was before natural gas prices
dropped and supplies increased.
In the last week, the average
price for diesel fuel nationally
was about $3.90 per gallon, the
U.S. Energy Information Agency
said. By comparison, compressed
natural gas sells for about $2.10
per gasoline-gallon-equivalent
and as low as $1 per gallon
in some regions of the country.
Increased use of hydraulic frac-
turing technologies has opened
new domestic supplies of natural
gas, helping to drive down prices.
I think the numbers prob-
ably have changed quite a
bit since we last looked at
it, said Mayor Mike Dever.
Dever said the use of com-
pressed natural gas would be
a signifcant change, though
more study is necessary to de-
termine if, among other issues,
the savings would be worth it.
One of those issues is in-
stallation of a quick-fueling
compressed natural gas sta-
tion. Lawrence has access to a
slow-fueling system owned by
Black Hills Energy at the utilitys
maintenance shop. It would take
several hours to fll a bus tank.
A federal grant will help pay
for the city to install a slow-fu-
eling station to be used to test
a new compressed natural gas
trash truck and a traditional city-
owned pickup truck. Dever said
a quick-fueling station would
cost $2 million to construct.
Dever said choosing a site for
a fueling station isnt simple. Te
citys bus feet is located in north-
ern Lawrence near the Kansas
Turnpike, while trash trucks and
other vehicles are based in eastern
Lawrence. A station to meet the
needs of both operations would
require changes in doing business.
City leaders also question
how long natural gas pric-
es will remain cheaper than
traditional oil products.
Is the fracking industry a
sustainable one? Because that
is really what this is all built
on at the moment, Dever said.
Residents are driving some
of the conversation. Graham
Kreicker urged commissioners
recently to delay buying new bus-
es until natural gas options were
explored. He said natural gas
companies are helping communi-
ties nationwide install quick-fuel
stations in exchange for sign-
ing long-term fuel contracts.
Tere are communities
that have gotten over the hur-
dles you are concerned about,
Kreicker told commission-
ers. We should be looking to-
ward having a natural gas feet,
and we should encourage the
school district to do the same.
A report from city staf on the
issue is expected to be complet-
ed in the next several weeks.

Te rivalry between Kan-
sas and Missouri dates back to
Quantrills Raid, when the guer-
rilla leader William Quantrill
led 400 Missourians to Law-
rence, a hub for abolitionists,
and killed roughly 180 boys
and men and set the city on fre.
Te rivalry, then fueled by
slavery, is still very much
alive, as last weeks 150th an-
niversary of the raid proved,
at least on Missouris side.
While several community
organizations in Lawrence re-
membered the date in history
by leading the live reenactment
of the historical event on Twit-
ter with the nationally trending
hashtag #QR1863, some on the
other side of the border burnt
Kansas merchandise to cele-
brate the victory of Quantrill.
Video and photos of the burn-
ing went viral through Buzz-
Feed, getting more than 2,000
shares on Facebook and 8,400
likes a day afer it was frst posted.
Soon debate raged over social
media, with Missourians de-
fending their victory and oth-
ers criticizing the classless act.

as the communications manag-
er of the Lawrence Convention

approved of the way Missouri
chose to commemorate the an-
niversary of Quantrills Raid.
I dont think the loss of nearly
200 men and the destruction of
a town should be celebrated any-
where, even if it is now correlated
to showing pride in your sports
team, Metz Howard said. It was
a tragedy and its just something
that shouldnt be celebrated ever.

Hot Box Cookies, Lawrences
newest addition to downtown,
is bringing an innovative and
refreshing spinto the world of
milk and cookies. Te compa-
ny, based in Columbia, Mo.,
opened shop at 732 Massachu-
setts Street, the former home of 3
Spoons Yogurt, and adds a
new variable to the Lawrence
sweets scene by ofering a ser-
vice one may not expect from a
business specializing in deserts.
Our business model is fo-
cused primarily on delivery,
said co-owner Corey Rimmel.
Te walk-in trafc is good,
but the biggest part of the busi-
ness is defnitely delivery.
Hot Box will deliver to all res-
idents within the Lawrence city
limits, requiring only a mini-
mum of a $12 purchase to qual-
ify for delivery (which conve-
niently equates to 12 cookies).
In addition to cookies, Hot
Box will ofer cookie cakes, milk
(chocolate and regular), milk-
shakes and even their own raw
cookie dough for customers to
take home and bake themselves.
Hot Boxs late hours of op-
eration will be conducive to
the majority of students week-
end schedule. Rimmel said the
shop will initially be open un-
til midnight on weekdays and 1
a.m. on the weekends, but adds
that these closing times could
get later as the business grows.
Rimmel thinks that Law-
rence is the ideal city to house
Hot Boxs second location.
Ive been to Lawrence plen-
ty of times over the last seven
or eight years, and really love
the town a lot, he said. I real-
ly wanted to open the store in a
college town to get involved with
the community and University.

States question pensions
for private employees
ALBANY, N.Y. As a lobbyist in
New Yorks statehouse, Stephen Ac-
quario is doing pretty well. He pulls
down $204,000 a year, more than
the governor makes, gets a Ford
Explorer as his company car and
is aforded another special perk:
Even though hes not a gov-
ernment employee, he is en-
titled to a full state pension.
Hes among hundreds of lobby-
ists in at least 20 states who get
public pensions because they rep-
resent associations of counties,
cities and school boards, an Asso-
ciated Press review found. Legisla-
tures granted them access decades
ago on the premise that they serve
governments and the public. In
many cases, such access also in-
cludes state health care benefts.
But several states have started
to question whether these orga-
nizations should qualify for such
benefts, since they are private
entities in most respects: Tey
face no public oversight of their
activities, can pay their top ex-
ecutives private-sector salaries
and sometimes lobby for posi-
tions in confict with taxpayers.
New Jersey and Illinois are among
the states considering legislation
that would end their inclusion.
Its a question of, Why are we
providing government pensions to
these private organizations? said
Illinois Democrat-
ic Rep. Elaine Nekritz.
Acquario, executive director
and general counsel of the New
York State Association of Coun-
ties, argues that his group gives
local government a voice in the
statehouse, and the perk of a state
pension makes it easier to hire
people with government expertise.
We want the people that work
in local governments to continue
to be part of the solution, he said.
We represent the same taxpayers.
Te debate is more about princi-
ple than big money, since the stafs
of such organizations are relative-
ly small and make barely a ripple
in huge state retirement systems.

S
ome of you Jayhawks, from
what I can gather from every
single bar Ive ever been to
in Lawrence on a Friday night, are
interested in sex. You might be
frequently having sex. You might
infrequently be having sex. You
might not have had sex, but want
to have it in the near-future. You
might be having sex with a casual
partner or with someone youre in
a relationship with. You might be
having sex with a person who is
biologically male, or biologically
female, or both. Te fact of the
matter is, despite the kind of sexu-
al activity you do or do not engage
in, if youre someone who can get
pregnant, or youre going to have
sex with someone who can get
pregnant, you should probably
consider using contraception
aka birth control.
Tis is under the assumption
that since yall are students, you
might not exactly want a bun in
the oven anytime soon. If thats
not the case, let me know if you
need a babysitter, because while
Im currently hanging an out of
order sign on my oven, babies
are pretty cute (from a distance,
belonging to someone else, and
again, not in my womb). But, if
your feelings are similar to mine,
and youd like to avoid pregnancy,
heres some tips about accessing
birth control while a student at
the University.
1. Tere are lots of diferent birth
control methods. Im guessing
most of you know about condoms
and oral contraceptives, or, the
pill. But those arent your only
options. Reversible birth control
methods are divided into three
categories: intrauterine contracep-
tion, such as an IUD; hormonal
methods, like the pill, but also in-
cluding many others like the patch
and a hormonal implant; and
barrier methods, such as good-
old fashioned condoms, as well
new-fangled female condoms,
spermicide, and diaphragms. Its
best to use at least two methods of
birth control, each being in a dif-
ferent birth control category (so
pairing a hormonal method with
a barrier method for example).
Bedsider.org is a great resource
to check out what birth control
method is best for you.
2. As of August 2013, all employ-
er-based insurance plans must
include some type of coverage
of birth control without co-pay,
so if you have health insurance
and you want or need birth
control, congrats! As a side-note,
if you still have a co-pay on birth
control, call your health insurance
provideryou may need to switch
to the generic or brand-name
of your current birth control
method, or switch to a diferent
version.
3. If you dont have health insur-
ance, there are still ways for you
to get afordable birth control. Te
Lawrence Public Health Depart-
ment ofers a sliding scale on
birth control, making it far more
afordable to students- its also
completely confdential. Tis is
important if youre in a situation
where youre dependent on some-
one elses health insurance and
want to be on birth control, but
whoever youre dependent on for
health insurance wouldnt support
you being on birth control. Te
LPHD is super helpful, and will
work with you to try to best navi-
gate your situation.
4. If you live in the residence
halls or scholarship halls, guess
what? Free condoms for you! You
can usually get them at the check-
in desk if youre in the dorms,
or fnd them tucked in with the
health supplies in schol-hall
land. If you dont feel comfort-
able getting condoms from your

Freshman mistakes
lead to senior wisdom
LETS TALK ABOUT SEX, BABY
SCIENCE LIFESTYLE
T
he public is only concerned
with the environment
when its economically
convenient. During the Great
Recession, all climate change
regulation was out the window
as America recovered. Now that
recovery is underway, billions
of stimulus dollars have found
their way to cleaner technology
subsidies while all oil and gas
activities from tighter oil to
tar sands, pipelines to ofshore
drilling are again receiving extra
scrutiny. Hell, even the bankrupt
city of Detroit found the funds
to scrutinize a pile of petroleum
coke a refning byproduct and a
coal substitute. Teres nothing ex-
plicitly terrible with the intensifed
regulation oil and gas businesses
are familiar with the challenging
policy environment aside from
opportunity cost. However, it
has become too easy to derail the
energy-future discussion. Teres
just too much arm-waving getting
in the way of a great discussion on
what its going to take to get to a
better energy future.
Arm-waving is another way of
saying distracting. Imagine the
cheesy movies where one pseu-
do-hero claims Im going to make
a distraction! and then proceeds
to do something very silly to dis-
tract the villain. I refer to the big-
gest arm-waving culprits as the
aggregators. Teyre smart people
with great media experience. Tey
read. Tey synthesize. Tey write.
Tey fnd great data and combine
it in all sorts of ways, interpreting
it to their desired outcome. But,
they lack the technical experience
to know when what theyre argu-
ing is absurd, enfaming all kinds
of people.
Lets think about how this
impacts hydraulic fracturing. It
isnt uncommon to hear someone
exclaim that We just dont know
what toxic chemicals are going
into the ground during fracking.
Tat claim is just a distraction;
the real question is whether or
not these chemicals are fnding
their way back to the surface.
And if they arent, then whats the
hollering about? Tere is a defnite
precedence for storing industrial
waste and harsh chemicals un-
derground see Class I through
VI disposal well permitting from
the EPA.
But lets entertain the aggrega-
tors. What if those harsh chem-
icals and natural gas itself fnds
its way to my drinking water?
Tat could be a serious problem.
Dont quote fammable water in
Pennsylvania. Tat myth has been
debunked years ago; not only is
methane naturally occurring in
some aquifers there, coal beds
produce methane and Pennsylva-
nia is full of coal mining towns.
What then about the Duke Pro-
ceedings of the National Academy
of Sciences study showing higher
concentrations of methane (nat-
ural gas) in water sources? Tat
study was published just this last
year. Now we have a conversation.
Te aggregators wave a powerful
study proving their point. Howev-
er, if you do a quick Google search
for the study and add the word
rebuttal, you fnd that theres
equally damning evidence dis-
counting the study as legitimate.
Te oil and gas companies remain
resolute.
So now were at square one, a
stalemate. Te public isnt going to
sit down and study the correlation
methods used by those Duke
researchers. Teyre relying on
information from incredibly unre-
liable sources, perhaps the natural
gas company itself, or environ-
mental groups whose funding
depends on shunning any fracking
activity. Of course, the public also
lacks technical understanding and
picks up whatever their side puts
down. Te argument continues
as everyone tries to infuence
government policy.
Educating everyone with techni-
cal understanding isnt the key to
resolving the stalemate. No one is
incentivized to collaborate; what
diference does it make what they
think or know? Tis is the crux
of the issues facing the energy
industry.
Te energy future isnt about cut-
ting the price at the pump. Tats
a red herring. Its about trying to
preserve the quality of life enjoyed
today. What are you willing to pay
for electricity? Travel? Air condi-
tioning in the summer and heat
in the winter? No one who thinks
critically about the energy future
has ever claimed that fracking is
a silver bullet; its well understood
that this stimulation method is a
powerful addition to a portfolio of
oil and gas extraction techniques.
What does that mean for us here
at the University? Ill be writing
critically about energy issues all
year; I will do my best to not wave
my arms as a tree hugger or an
evil, greedy oilman. Its complex:
an entire novel could be written
about how water transporta-
tion related to oil production is
destroying municipal roads in
Pennsylvania or how the U.S. is
putting itself at an international
competitive disadvantage by
refusing to burn coal. Join me for
a year of thinking critically about
energy. Lets stop aggregating and
arm waving, together.

S
o you fnd yourself on
campus, and youre probably
wondering what to do with
yourself. Tere are classes to go
to, an overwhelming number of
books to buy and about twenty
diferent activities demanding
your attention all at once. As a
senior going into her fourth year
of this experience, believe me, it
doesnt get any less hectic.
For most of us, a new school
year is like a fresh start, a way
to get back on track, improve
and discover. Everyone always
associates this mentality with
freshman; I ofen hear it phrased
somewhat like, Te freshmen are
crazy cause theyre trying to make
a new identity for themselves.
But in truth, college students are
just crazy.
Personally, I spent the frst
semester of my freshman year
completely overwhelmed by my
academic and social life (or lack
thereof). As the daughter of two
educators, and someone who
holds herself to high academic
standards, I worried profusely
that I wouldnt get good grades.
And if I wasnt worrying about my
homework, I was worrying that
I wasnt meeting enough people
because I was too busy worrying
about my homework. Needless
to say, I made my frst semester
pretty rough for myself.
What I discovered quickly into
my second semester, however,
is that everything gets easier (or
at least less overwhelming) the
second time around. And once I
realized that I could still get good
grades without thinking about
class 24/7 it became more a matter
of fnding a balance between
classes and people, than devoting
myself to one and forgetting the
other.
Tis is easier said than done. Ive
spent many nights staying in with
the intention of studying, only
to spend the evening watching
countless Youtube videos. While
this makes for great conversa-
tion topics later on, it isnt really
conducive to either academics or
a social life. Besides, the whole
point of a new school year is get-
ting out there, participating, and
trying new things, right? Trolling
the internet into the wee hours
of the night probably isnt going
to help you achieve any personal
goals (unless trolling the internet
is your goal).
So, as a senior at the Universi-
ty, Ive made a list of tips I wish
someone had shared with me early
on in my college career:
1. Be proactive. Get involved,
initiate things, stay on top of
homework. Seems simple enough,
but with so much unsupervised
freedom, the ease and temptation
to put of everything and watch
Netfix becomes tenfold. I watched
every season of 30 Rock my fresh-
man year. Tina Fey is my spirit
animal, but you cant put that on
a resume.
2. Keep a schedule. Mapping
out what your average week will
look like, including class times,
commitments, and designated
recreational time will help you
see exactly how much time you
have each week to devote to social
activities, studying, and doing
anything else (like going down
to the cofee shop to stare at the
attractive barista).
3. Make a list of goals. Since
classes are my number one priori-
ty, my personal list involves main-
ly socialization and being active.
Its really not a good year until
youve made a few new friends,
awkwardly trying to learn a new
sport or workout regime.
4. Make a college bucket list.
How else can you say you truly
experienced the University and
Lawrence? A few things on my
bucket list include swimming in
the Chi Omega Fountain, trying
every restaurant on Mass Street
and studying abroad.
5. Dont get bogged down. While
ultimately youre here to graduate
and get a job, dont get so caught
up in the strangeness of college
life or the idea of the future that
you cant enjoy yourself and be
responsible. You can have it your
way, but dont get crazy.
Remember, college is full of
opportunity and experience, and
starting the year of strong is huge
in making your time here all it can
be. If Id gotten these tips early on,
my frst semester freshman year
wouldve looked very diferent.
Do yourself a favor and take some
initiative to make this year exactly
what you want it to be.

N
owadays, most civilians
only chance of getting
into the presidents
house is, as demonstrated by the
baddies of White House Down,
through the big screen. Director
Lee Daniels has decided to give
us another peek into the White
House in Te Butler. Te story,
which follows the reality-based
life of retired White House butler
Cecil Gaines (Forest Whitaker), is
a Downton Abbey-esque look
at the White House below stairs
and a behind-the-scenes look at
the powerful men who worked
there.
Gaines, born into the broken
world of the Postbellum South,
is pulled from the sharecrop-
ping feld afer the death of his
fatherkilled by a beastly Alex
Pettyferand taken into the home
of his killers mother, a wealthy
old woman. While working in the
house, Gaines is taught how to
buttle.
Gaines butler training continues
as he works at a series of restau-
rants and upscale hotels. While
working in Washington D.C., he
is discovered by a high up at the
White House and ofered a job.
In his 30-plus years on Pennsyl-
vania Avenue, Gaines works for
every president from Eisenhower
to Reagan and is truly a witness
to backstage history. He consoles
a widowed Jackie Kennedy and is

Aries (March 21-April 19)
Today is an 8
Watch out for work-related accidents
or misunderstandings. Allow your
roots to be shaken and still issue
new growth. Resolve conficts as they
sprout, and collect the fruits of your
labor.
Taurus (April 20-May 20)
Today is an 8
Stop and think for a minute. If you
cant get what you need close to
home, look farther away. The more
diffcult the challenge, the more
rewarding the effort. Your team backs
you up.
Gemini (May 21-June 20)
Today is a 6
Watch the competition. Travel beck-
ons, but expect the unexpected. Keep
your fnances and home in order. If
you move quickly, you can make a big
proft. Practice looking at things in
a new light. Romance is as close as
your backyard.
Cancer (June 21-July 22)
Today is a 6
Take one step at a time right now,
stopping to work out kinks along the
way. Be as practical as circum-
stances allow. Dont be afraid to ask
friends for help. Listening is key.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)
Today is a 6
Its a beautiful moment for love,
despite obstacles. The more you
overcome, the better you feel. Dont be
afraid of mistakes ... the best stories
come from risks taken, not the ones
avoided.

Today is a 7
Arrange priorities. Call if youll be
late. Find what you need nearby. Gain
more than expected, with a bonus.
Take care not to provoke jealousies.
Its not a good time to expand or
travel.

job, but somebody has to do it.
Prepare for some rest and relaxation.
Ah, love! Share some.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

Celebrate your love openly. Add
romantic touches at home, like
fowers or dramatic lighting. Buy only

Think outside your safety zone.
Advance to the next level. Be the best.
A female has the skinny. A slight dis-
agreements no big deal. Theres more
work coming in. Accept constructive
criticism.
one of the few people to make
it out of the Watergate Scandal
unshackled.
Te movie focuses on how
each of these presidents deal
with the pressing question
of Civil Rights. Gaines son
is involved in the civil rights
movement to the extent of being
one of Martin Luther King, Jrs
posse.
Te portrayals of the Civil
Rights Movement and the
people who fought for equality
are what the movie does best. It
shows each presidents qualms
and reservations through the
uncertain years of the move-
ment and the efect their deci-
sions have on the staf at their
own house as well as the rest of
the nation.
If the movie has a drawback,
its that theres simply too
much time to cover. More than
20 years are skipped in the
beginning and near the end. At
the end of Time Lapse One,
Gaines has already moved from
his home in the south up to
D.C. and we arent given much
insight into how he got there.
In the grand scheme of things,
this is only a tiny wrinkle. Te
Butler is engaging and
inspirational with a series of
star-studded cameos to com-
plete the trifecta. Lee Daniels
Te Butler gets two (white-
gloved) thumbs up.

Madden 25 brings new features
to gamers for the 25th anniversary
edition, which comes out Aug. 27.
Increased control over skill players
highlight the newest features as
the game shifs to next-generation
consoles.
Te frst installment of Madden
NFL was released for desktop
computers in 1988 with the game
title John Madden NFL. Te name
of the franchise was not changed
to Madden NFL until 1993, afer
EA Sports Development Compa-
ny received the rights to use NFL
athletes within its game.
Madden NFL has evolved signif-
cantly since the frst edition of the
game for PC. Te game has moved
all the way through Nintendo and
Sega consoles, and within the past
ffeen years, the game has migrated
more toward Xbox and Playstation
consoles. On Tuesday, Madden
25 will be released on both Play-
station 3 and Xbox 360 to celebrate
25 years of the football games
franchise.
Tis year, with the release of
Madden 25, the game will
continue to be geared toward the
next-generation consoles Play-
station 4 and Xbox One with a
separate release date in November
when the next-generation consoles
become available.
According to Game Informer
magazine, the game will contain
some favorite modes from last year,
including Coach Mode and Owner
Mode, a mode where a player can
control ticket and concession pric-
es, upgrade a teams stadium or re-
locate to a diferent city and change
the teams name. Tese modes
may be entertaining to some, and
relatively boring to others; however
these can all be connected to create
an immersive NFL franchise. Te
option to create a player, or control
only one player through the course
of a season is also there to be taken
advantage of if a player desires to
do so.
Along with the improvements
made to the game modes that are
available to play, the game play itself
has improved since last years game.
According to IGN.com, the
control over the ofensive running
game is one of the biggest improve-
ments to the game. With a new
feature known as the Precision
Modifer, running backs, wide
receivers and tight ends are now
easier to handle, and the feature
gives players more control over stif
arms, jukes, spins and truck moves,
and provides potential combina-
tions for a more realistic feel.
Te Xbox 360 and Playstation
3 version of the game will feature
former Detroit Lions running back
Barry Sanders on the cover, and
the next-generation versions will
feature the Vikings running back
Adrian Peterson.

Ryan Lewis, the 2013 VMAs were
the buzz of social media last night.
Starting of the VMA pre-show,
Miley Cyrus continued to channel
her punk style with a Dolce &
Gabbana black bejeweled crop
top and matching pants. With her
bleach blonde pixie cut twisted
into two Zenon-esque topknots,
it is safe to say that her innocent
Hannah Montana days are in the
past. She has quickly become a
style icon following ofen risqu
and unique fashion choices.
Ariana Grande maintained her
cute, doll-like persona throughout
both the red carpet walk as well as
her pre-show performance. Start-
ing of in a classic Kenley Collins
foral frock with white pumps
and later switching to a sequined
lavender mini dress, Grande kept
it simple, fun, and ageappropriate.
In a beige, foor-length spiked
gown with a scandalous thigh-
high slit, Ellie Goulding balanced
edge and beauty. Rapper 2 Chainz
also made a statement dressed
from head to toe in Versace pat-
terned pants, jacket, and hat.
Lady Gaga continued her legacy
of outrageous performances.
Switching between six outfts
throughout her opening act, Gaga
managed to rock a white smock
with a square white hat, asequined
black body suit, blue blazer with
matching skirt, both white and
yellow wigs, face paint, and even-
tually stripped down to a seashell
bikini.
In a night flled with incredible
music and fashion, all eyes were
on musics biggest stars.

Ellie Goulding arrives at the MTV Video Music Awards yesterday, at the Barclays
Center in the Brooklyn borough of New York.
LONDON Oscar-winning
actor Kevin Spacey says television
has overtaken cinema as the home
of quality character-driven drama,
but the industry risks failure if
it doesn't recognize that viewers
want control over what they watch,
and when.
Spacey told the Edinburgh
International Television Festival
on Tursday that the success of
his political thriller "House of
Cards" released in a single burst
of 13 episodes on video stream-
ing service Netfix earlier this
year showed that viewers "want
freedom."
"If they want to binge as
they've been doing on 'House Of
Cards' then we should let them
binge," he said.
Spacey is the frst actor invited to
deliver the festival's keynote speech
an invitation he attributed to
the success of "House of Cards'"
innovative
distribution
model and
television's
creative re-
naissance.
"Frankly, 15
years ago I
wouldn't have
been up here
lecturing you
because my
agent would
never have allowed me to even
consider being on a television
series afer winning an Oscar," said
Spacey, who won Academy Awards
for performances in "Te Usual
Suspects" and "American Beauty."
He said shows like "Te Wire,"
''Dexter" and "Breaking Bad"
proved television had taken over
from the movies in
terms of sophisti-
cated storytelling,
but argued that
that this "golden
age" was at risk if
the industry did
not respond to the
ways new technol-
ogy, the Internet
and social media
had changed view-
ing patterns.
"We no longer live in a world of
appointment viewing," he said. "So
the water cooler has gone virtual,
because the discussion is now
online.
"Studios and networks who
ignore either shif whether the
increasing sophistication of story-
telling, or the constantly shifing
sands of technological advance-
ment will be lef behind," he
added.
Spacey said the critical and
commercial success of "House of
Cards" ''demonstrated that we have
learned the lesson that the music
industry didn't learn give people
what they want, when they want
it, in the form they want it in, at a
reasonable price, and they'll more
likely pay for it rather than steal it."
In another event at the festival
Friday, Spacey said that movie
producers could adopt asimilar
approach to help beat piracy,
releasing flms simultaneously
online, in cinemas and on DVD.
Character-driven TV trumps the movies
ESPN breaks collaboration with PBS on investigation of NFL

Double-Oscar winner Kevin Spacey at a rehearsal before delivering the keynote speech to the James MacTaggart Memorial Lecture at the Edinburgh television festival on
Thursday Aug. 22. Spacey says television has overtaken cinema as the home of quality character-driven drama.
LOS ANGELES ESPN ended
its collaboration with PBS on an
investigation of the NFL and play-
ers' head injuries as public TV pro-
ducers expressed surprise over the
abrupt collapse of the 15-month
partnership. ESPN said its decision
was based on a lack of editorial
control over "League of Denial: Te
NFL's Concussion Crisis," airing in
October on PBS' "Frontline" public
afairs series. At
ESPN's request, its logo was being
removed from websites related to
the project and from the flm itself.
"Because ESPN is neither produc-
ing nor exercising editorial control
over the 'Frontline' documentaries,
there will be no co-branding in-
volving ESPN on the documenta-
ries or their marketing materials,"
ESPN said in a statement. "Te use
of ESPN's marks could incorrectly
imply that we have editorial
control. It was a mistake on ESPN's
part that it didn't reach the con-
clusion sooner, ESPN spokesman
Josh Krulewitz said Friday.
Te head injury issue has poten-
tially vast implications for the NFL,
with more than 4,000 former play-
ers suing the league over claims
it hid known concussion risks,
leading to high rates of dementia,
depression and even suicides.
Some believe the players' claims
could be worth $1 billion or more
if they move forward in court. Te
cases involve the deaths of players,
medical care of players with
disabling dementia, and lifelong
medical monitoring for those who
are now symptom-free.
Te NFL on Friday denied a
New York Times report that it had
pressured ESPN to drop out of the
project with "Frontline." Te sports
network has a lucrative contract to
carry league games on "Monday
Night Football."
Te Walt Disney Co.-owned
ESPN pays the NFL more than
$1 billion a year for the broadcast
rights, the Times said.
ESPN denied that the NFL had
any infuence. "Te decision to re-
move our branding was not a result
of concerns about our separate
business relationship with the NFL.
As we have in the past, including
as recently as Sunday, we will
continue to cover the concussion
story aggressively through our own
reporting," the channel said in a
release.
In a separate statement, ESPN
President John Skipper defended
the channel as a leader "in report-
ing on the concussion issue, dating
back to the mid-1990s," and said
he wanted to stress its commitment
to journalism and support for the
work of its reporters.
Raney Aronson, "Frontline" depu-
ty executive producer, said she and
others at "Frontline" were taken
aback by ESPN's decision and that
they weren't privy to details of why
it was made.
"It's anybody's guess right now
about what actually happened,"
said Aronson. In an online state-
ment, she and "Frontline" executive
producer David Fanning said
they regretted ESPN's exit afer a
productive editorial partnership
with ESPN's investigative program
"Outside the Lines." Te Sunday
report cited Friday by ESPN as an
example of its continuing report-
ing on concussions was part of its
partnership with "Frontline," which
Aronson noted was credited on the
program.
ESPN executives were long aware
of the "Frontline" approach to
"League of Denial," Aronson said,
with the PBS series controlling
what it aired or posted online
and ESPN doing the same for its
programs or postings. "Frontline"
had been working closely with
ESPN's senior vice president and
news director Vince Doria and
senior producer Dwayne Bray, with
no indication of discord until last
Friday, she said.
Te two-part "League of Denial,"
airing Oct. 8 and 15, draws on
reporting by ESPNs Steve Fainaru
and Mark Fainaru Wada.

A
s I climbed up the 14,000-foot
Culebra Peak in remote southern
Colorado this past weekend, I had
the realest of realizations: this is hard as
hell. Sure, Id guess the majority of the stu-
dent body could do it, just like my 10-year-
old cousin cruised to the summit, but I was
gassed. zmy legs felt like Jell-O, aand my
mind wandered.
And where does my mind always tend
to wander? Sports. Expectations were high
last go around for the Kansas City Chiefs.
And youre entitled to your lofy opinion
this year. Te Chiefs had six pro-bowlers
and fxed their most glaring needs at head
coach and quarterback in the of-season.
But hold your horses on that bold predic-
tion of yours.
Te Chiefs are still a mountain away.
Remember the team was a dreadful 2-14
last year. Remember that the Chiefs only
played seven games within 14 points of
their opponent. Remember the incredible
trio of the Bills, Bengals and Browns beat
the Chiefs by a combined 63 points.
So, are the changes and returning cast
enough for a playof push? Tats like think-
ing your dog will learn how to open your
fridge and bring you a cold one with zero
training. I mean, both have happened, but
youd need to check YouTube for the canine
bartender and a little history for the other.
In the past decade, at least one team has
gone from worst to frst in its division each
year. Te Chiefs did it in 2003 and 2010,
by the way, so its possible. But Id also take
a wild guess that Peyton Manning and the
NFLs best receiving core werent in any of
those divisions.
Denver Broncos. Colorado. Mountains.
You get it?
As spectacularly bad as the
Chiefs were in 2012, they would
need almost a complete 180 turn
in 2013 for any playof chance.
Not like the Royals long shot, pray
for another 19-4 stretch, hope. Im
talking reality, you guys.
And that reality is that the Chiefs will
be like drinking too much at the Hawk:
both very good and very bad. One Sunday,
we will be trying to fnd playof tickets on
StubHub and the next looking forward to
alley-oops from Naadir Tarpe to Andrew
Wiggins. Te ofense will sputter at times
and Jamaal Charles will run like Forrest
Gump at other times.
Patience, young grasshoppers: the time
for Kansas City sports is almost here.
Sporting KC has already arrived. Te
Royals showed they are a piece or two away
from actually making September baseball
interesting. Te Chiefs are moving in the
right direction with necessary changes and
additions.
Expect the Chiefs to have an eerily
similar
season
to the
Royals.
Lots of ups, lots of
downs:
hopefully fewer
injuries. Finish around
the .500 mark, no playofs and genuine
optimism for the next season.
Im aware the most Kansas City thing to
do is to chant one more year. Te length
of time of waiting for a truly good Chiefs
team 2010 doesnt count is somehow
even longer than Brady Morningstars
career on the basketball team. Dont get me
wrong; Im more excited for football season
than sorority girls were to get back to the 3
Bs. I just urge you to curb your excitement
a little bit.
Oh yeah, I made it to the top of Mount
Culebra. It just took a little patience.

HOUSTON Houston's Andre
Johnson had 131 yards receiving
before halfime in his frst extend-
ed work of the preseason Sunday
against the New Orleans Saints.
But New Orleans' backups scored
two touchdowns in the second half
to help the Saints to a 31-23 John-
son didn't play in the preseason
opener and had less than a quarter
of work last week. On Sunday, he
grabbed seven of the eight passes
thrown to him, highlighted by a
39-yard reception.
Matt Schaub was 15 of 26 for 213
yards for Houston (2-1), and Ben
Tate ran for 74 yards and a score
flling in for Arian Foster.
Drew Brees was four of six for
104 yards and a touchdown for the
Saints (3-0) before sitting down
afer the third possession. With
Marques Colston still sitting out
with a lef foot injury, rookie ffh-
round pick Kenny Stills continued
to impress with 54 yards receiving
and a touchdown.
Backup Luke McCown came in
with 8 eight minutes lef in the sec-
ond quarter. He fnished with 118
yards Andy Tanner had 33 yards
receiving with two touchdown
receptions in the second half for
New Orleans.
Tate piled up 51 yards on
Houston's second drive, with the
highlight coming on a 39-yard
run when he darted to the outside
and cut back in for the big gain.
He capped it with a 1-yard run
that gave Houston a Schaub was
sacked by Cameron Jordan when
he manhandled Derek Newton on
third down on Houston's next pos-
session and the Texans settled for
a 48-yard feld goal from Randy
Bullock.
Johnson beat his coverage and
was wide open for the 39-yard
reception in the second quarter.
Schaub was sacked afer that and
Houston's ofense stalled before
Bullock made it 13-7 with a 55-
yard feld goal.
Te Saints couldn't get much
going on ofense in their frst two
drives. Willie Jeferson got his
hands on Brees in the end zone on
the third play of their frst drive.
But before he could bring him
down, the quarterback got of a
pass that fell incomplete.
Keshawn Martin returned the
punt for a touchdown, but it was
called back because of an illegal
block by Brees was sacked by
Jared Crick to force a punt and
end the next drive. Te Saints
fnally started clicking Brees found
Pierre Tomas on a short pass
and linebacker Joe Mays was there
to make the tackle, but Tomas
wriggled free and dashed for a 51-
yard touchdown to cut the lead to
10-7 early in the second Te Saints
got that drive going on another
catch and run when Brees fnessed
a short foater to Mark Ingram
which he turned into a 29-yard
gain.
McCown's frst drive ended with
a 51-yard feld goal by Garrett
Hartley that cut Houston's lead
to 13-10. Stills grabbed a 40-yard
pass over Kareem Jackson on
third-and-6. Stills fnished the
drive four plays later when he
beat Johnathan Joseph to get wide
open on the end zone for a 14-yard
touchdown reception to put New
Orleans up 17-13.
Harris was called for his second
costly penalty of the game on a
40-yard pass interference call on
the frst play of the second half.
New Orleans took advantage of
the penalty when McCown found
Tanner for an 8-yard touchdown
strike to make it 24-16.
T.J. Yates threw an 11-yard touch-
down pass to Alec Lemon to get
Houston to 24-23 late in the third
quarter. Tanner's second touch-
down grab pushed the Saints' lead
to 31-23 in the fourth.

sive end Antonio Smith.

JERSEY CITY, N.J. Masters
champion Adam Scott won Te
Barclays on Sunday afer every-
one around him did their best to
lose it. Scott played bogey-free
at Liberty National, making only
two birdies on the back nine for a
5-under 66 that put him in the mix
of a crowded leaderboard at the
top. Turns out he was the only one
who stayed there.
"I can't believe it, to be honest,"
Scott said afer winning the FedEx
Cup playofs opener. "I just played
a good round today and I came
in and really didn't think it had a
chance. But obviously, things went
my way a lot out there."
Justin Rose had a 25-foot birdie
putt for the lead, ran it 5 feet by
the cup and three-putted for a
bogey for a 68. Kevin Chappell had
a two-shot lead through 10 holes,
only to play the next seven holes in
7-over par to close with a 76.
Tiger Woods sufered a back
spasm on the par-5 13th hole and
hooked a fairway metal so far lef
that it landed in a swamp on the
other side of the 15th fairway,
leading to bogey. He dropped
another shot on the 15th, and then
gamely birdied the 16th and 17th
holes to pull within one shot of
Scott. Woods' putt from the back
of the 18th green was one turn
short of falling to force a playof.
Te last challenge came from
Gary Woodland, who fell out of
the lead when he hit driver on the
13th that ran into the water, lead-
ing to bogey. Woodland had birdie
chances from inside 10 feet on the
fnal three holes, and missed them
all. He closed with a 73.
"I found a way to hang in there
and grind it out and gave myself a
chance on the back nine on Sun-
day, which is everything you can
ask for," Woodland said.
Scott fnished at 11-under 273
and moved to a career-best No.
2 in the world. It was the second
time Woods has missed a playof
by one shot at Liberty National.
Woods, Woodland and Rose
shared second place with Gra-
ham DeLaet of Canada, whose 65
matched the low score of the fnal
round. DeLaet will move up to No.
9 in the Presidents Cup standings,
and with one week before qualify-
ing ends, is in good shape to make
the International team.
Woods had all four rounds in the
60s for the frst time in a year on
the PGA Tour, though it wasn't
enough. He battled stifness in
his lower back all week, which
he attributed to a sof bed in his
hotel room the second straight
year he has had back issues from a
mattress at this event.
In a brief interview with CBS
Sports, he said it was "hypothet-
ical" when asked if he would
compete in the Deutsche Bank
Championship,
the next playof
event that starts
Friday on the
TPC Boston.
Te tourna-
ment gives its
charity money to
Woods' founda-
tion. Woods al-
ready missed the
AT&T National
this year, which
also benefts his
foundation.
"I just got of and I'm not feeling
my best right now," he said.
Rose was feeling that great,
either. He was in position to win
the tournament with a birdie putt,
and the U.S. Open champion did
not want to leave it short. Instead,
he knocked it by farther than he
imagined, the ball stayed on the
high side of the
cup the whole
way.
"I got too
aggressive," Rose
said. "I thought it
was a putt to win
the tournament.
It's tough to
take." Scott won
for the second
time this year,
and at least put
himself into the
conversation for
PGA Tour player of the year if he
were to go on to win the FedEx
Cup. He is No. 2 in the standings
behind Woods, though the $10
million prize does not come into
view until the Tour Championship.
Te frst playof event was packed
with plenty of energy on a spectac-
ular day across from the Statue of
Liberty and the Manhattan skyline.
Five players had at least a share
of the lead at some point in the
fnal round. Woods put up a great
fght despite his back injury. Scott
played the fnal 24 holes without
a bogey.
Sunday also had some of the
emotions found at Q-school for
players whose season came to an
abrupt end. And it was just as wild
at the bottom.
Only the top 100 players in the
FedEx Cup advance to the second
playof event next week outside
Boston. Geof Ogilvy could have
joined them except for missing a
2-foot par putt on the fnal hole
that ultimately knocked him out of
the top 100.
Camilo Villegas, at No. 110,
thought he needed a 6-foot par
putt on the last hole to advance.
He missed it and was visibly angry.

I just played a good round

today and I came in and
really didnt think it had
a chance. But obviously,
things went my way a lot
out there.

NEW YORK Imagine what
Miguel Cabrera might be doing
if he were completely healthy.
Te reigning American League
MVP hit a mammoth homer,
Rick Porcello enjoyed a happy
homecoming and the Detroit Ti-
gers polished of a three-game
sweep of the New York Mets
with an 11-3 victory Sunday.
Cabreras two-run drive was his
42nd long ball of the season and
10th in 19 games. He went 3 for 4
with a walk, rais-
ing his batting
average to a ma-
jor-league best
.360, and fnished
the series 7 for 13
with two hom-
ers and fve RBIs.
Its a lot of fun
to watch, Porcel-
lo said. Youve
got to remind
yourself not to
take what hes
done for grant-
ed, because hes just that special
of a player and he makes it look
so easy day in and day out. But,
hes unbelievable. Hes the best
hitter on the planet, hands down.
Hobbled by nagging injuries to his
hip, side and knees, Cabrera jogged
slowly down the line all weekend.
When he tried to dive for
a ball at third base Sunday,
it certainly appeared to hurt.
Tat hardly slowed
him at the plate, though.
Hes the best Ive seen, by
far, teammate Andy Dirks said.
Te things that he can do, you
just sit back and say, Wow.
Dirks put Detroit ahead with a
two-run homer, and the AL Cen-
tral leaders improved to 12-5 in
interleague play. Tey have won
34 of 49 overall, the best mark in
the American League since July 2.
Porcello (10-7) pitched seven in-
nings of four-hit ball before the Ti-
gers broke it open with a seven-run
ninth. Dirks drew a bases-loaded
walk during the outburst, which
included RBI singles by Victor
Martinez and Ramon Santiago.
Travis dArnaud hit his frst ma-
jor league homer for the Mets, who
have scored fve runs during a four-
game slide. Tey were outhit 33-7
in the fnal two games of the series.
Te Tigers arent in the position
theyre in without having an out-
standing ofense. Tey pitched us
tough. We didnt get a lot of guys
on, New York manager Terry Col-
lins said. Right now we are not
swinging the bats very well. Te
Tigers played great and we didnt.
Dillon Gee (9-9) lost for only the
third time in 16 starts. He entered
with a 2.27 ERA
since May 30,
the fourth-best
mark in the
majors during
that span.
Te 24-year-
old Porcello,
who grew up a
Mets fan nearby
in New Jersey,
lef 17 tickets
for family and
friends. He
didnt disap-
point them, either, bouncing back
from a loss to Minnesota and mov-
ing to 6-1 in his past nine outings.
It was defnitely a little spe-
cial feeling, Porcello said. Im
glad we got a win for them.
Te right-hander was hit hard in
his only other start against the Mets
on June 28, 2011, in Detroit. He
pitched at Yankee Stadium a little
more than two weeks ago, taking a
no-decision in Detroits 4-3 defeat.
With the victory by Porcello, all
fve members of the Tigers rotation
have reached double digits in wins.
Te Tigers were trailing
by one when Martinez sin-
gled of Gee to start the sixth.
Dirks, who had three of
Detroits 13 hits Saturday
of All-Star ace Matt Harvey,
drove an 0-1 slider to right-cen-
ter for his eighth home run.
I thought we probably strung
as good at-bats together this series
as we have all year throughout the
lineup, manager Jim Leyland said.
Tis sounds crazy, but I think the
matchup yesterday really got the
hitters pumped up because they
knew it could be a real tough day.
Gee lasted six innings for
the 11th straight start, the lon-
gest streak of his career, and
15th time in 16 outings. But he
matched a season high by giv-
ing up 10 hits fve in the sixth.
Austin Jackson opened the game
with a sof single and Cabre-
ra launched a 2-0 pitch toward
lef feld, where it cleared a rail-
ing in the second deck and sailed
through a triangular opening be-
neath the restaurant windows.
When the man gets hot,
hes hot, Martinez said.
Te drive induced a collective
gasp from the crowd of 32,084 on
Tom Seaver bobblehead day and
gave Cabrera a major league-high
128 RBIs. Trying to become the frst
player to win consecutive Triple
Crowns, he is four homers behind
Baltimore slugger Chris Davis.

LEWISTON, Maine Te
Farmers Almanac is using
words like piercing cold, bit-
terly cold and biting cold to
describe the upcoming winter.
And if its predictions are right,
the frst outdoor Super Bowl in
years will be a messy Storm Bowl.
Te 197-year-old publication that
hits newsstands Monday predicts a
winter storm will hit the Northeast
around the time the Super Bowl is
played at MetLife Stadium in the
Meadowlands in New Jersey. It also
predicts a colder-than-normal win-
ter for two-thirds of the country
and heavy snowfall in the Midwest,
Great Lakes and New England.
Were using a very strong
four-letter word to describe this
winter, which is C-O-L-D. Its
going to be very cold, said San-
di Duncan, managing editor.
Based on planetary posi-
tions, sunspots and lunar cy-
cles, the almanacs secret for-
mula is largely unchanged since
founder David Young pub-
lished the frst almanac in 1818.
Modern scientists dont put much
stock in sunspots or tidal action,
but the almanac says its forecasts
used by readers to plan wed-
dings and plant gardens are cor-
rect about 80 percent of the time.
Last year, the forecast called
for cold weather for the east-
ern and central U.S. with milder
temperatures west of the Great
Lakes. It started just the op-
posite but ended up that way.
Caleb Weatherbee, the publica-
tions elusive prognosticator, said he
was of by only a couple of days on
two of the seasons biggest storms:
a February blizzard that paralyzed
the Northeast with 3 feet of snow in
some places and
a sloppy storm
the day before
springs arrival
that buried parts
of New England.
Readers who
put stock in the
almanacs fore-
casts may do
well to stock up
on long johns,
especially if theyre lucky enough
to get tickets to the Super Bowl on
Feb. 2. Te frst Super Bowl held
outdoors in a cold-weather envi-
ronment could be both super cold
and super messy, with a big storm
due Feb. 1 to 3, the almanac says.
Said Duncan: It real-
ly looks like the Super Bowl
may be the Storm Bowl.
Te Maine-based Farmers Al-
manac, not to be confused with the
New Hampshire-based Old Farm-
ers Almanac, which will be pub-
lished next month, features a mix of
corny jokes,
g a r d e n i n g
tips, nostal-
gia and home
r e me d i e s ,
like feeding
carrots to
dogs to help
with bad
breath and
using mashed
bananas to
soothe dry, cracked skin in the winter.

Charlie Weis said Friday that
he doesnt know if and when
ofensive lineman Pearce Slater will
return to Lawrence afer traveling
to his hometown in California for
a family medical emergency.
Weis hasnt heard back from
Slater, who arrived late on campus
to begin with, and is still pushing
to keep in contact with him. Slater
hadnt responded by Friday, and
Weis said he is
trying to get him back on campus
as soon as
possible.
As of right
now, I have
no idea if and
when hell
get here,
Weis said. I
have texted
him again
this morning
reiterating those things that I just
told you. I have not heard from
him and Im just taking him for his
word and it is what it is.
Te 6-foot-8, 340-pound Slater
played at El Camino Community
College for one year in California,
and was then granted three years
of eligibility when Kansas scooped
him up.
Former walk-on Wyman leads
kicking competition
Walk-ons hardly ever push up
the ranks and become starters, but
when they do, a good story
comes along the wayside.
Enter Matthew Wyman, a kicker
from Bloomfeld Hills, Mich.
Wyman, who was just a typical
freshmen living in the dorms, now
seems to have the upper hand in
the kicking game afer walking
onto the team last year during
Weis search for a solid kicker. It
looks like Weis advertisement is
paying of.
It certainly has proved worthy
for Wyman who is at the top of
the depth chart ahead of favorite
Michael Mesh, a transfer from
Hutchinson Community College.
He came in here a distant kicker
in the initial thought process,
Weis said. But hes a candidate
to be the feld-goal
kicker because hes
kicked so well.
Te Jayhawks
used a two-kicker
committee last year
and fnished 2012
making 62 percent
of their feld goals.
Weis said Wy-
mans well documented skills can
best help Kansas and hes showed
that he can grab hold of the start-
ing spot.
Hes got good pop, Weis said.
Hes got good range, he has no
problem making it from 50 yards.
Hes been very consistent and he
has a legitimate chance of being
named the feld-goal kicker.
While Wyman looks to secure
the feld-goal responsibilities,
junior college transfer Trevor Par-
dula looks to be tabbed for kickof
duties and possibly punts.

Giants safety Stevie Brown
injured in loss to Jets
ASSOCIATED PRESS
EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J.
New York Giants free safety
Stevie Brown will miss the reg-
ular season with a torn anterior
cruciate ligament in his lef knee
that he hurt in Saturdays pre-
season overtime loss to the Jets.
Te 27-year-old Brown, who
led the Giants with eight inter-
ceptions last season, was placed
on injured reserve on Sunday.
I feel badly for him, coach Tom
Coughlin said in a conference call.
He played well for us last year
and prepared himself well for
this season. Were defnitely go-
ing to miss him. Well contin-
ue, because thats what we do.
For now, it leaves the Giants
without the starting safeties from a
year ago, with strong safety Antrel
Rollestill out with a sprained ankle.
But we expect Antrel to prac-
tice this week and get him back
on the feld, Coughlin said.
Browns injury, which came
on a non-contact play soon af-
ter he intercepted Geno Smiths
pass and returned it 22 yards,
will move ffh-year veteran
Ryan Mundy into a starting role.
Mundy signed with the Giants
in the ofseason afer spending his
entire career with the Pittsburgh
Steelers. He started only fve games
in four years, with one interception.
He has played well, Coughlin
said of Mundy. He can play both
safety positions. Hes proven to
be physical. Well see about that.
Tyler Sash, a third-year veteran,
has a chance to move up the depth
chart with Brown out for the season.
Hes certainly going to get a lot
of playing time, Coughlin said of
Sash. Its up to his production,
but the opportunity is going to be
there. He knows whats in front
of him and has the opportunity.
Another safety who might
have been in the mix to start is
second-year pro Will Hill, who
made the team as a free agent
out of training camp last year.
However, Hill was suspended
once last year for four games for
violating the leagues drug policy.
If he makes the Giants ros-
ter next week, he will miss the
frst four games of the 2013 sea-
son for another drug ofense.
Hes been playing and playing
well, Coughlin said of Hill. Hes
outstanding in the special teams.
But were not going to have him
for four games. We acknowledge
what he can brings to the table,
but we cant be lured into think-
ing were OK because hes not go-
ing to be here. Tats a shame.
Former standout cornerback
Terrell Tomas, who is making
a comeback afer two ACL sur-
geries, is probably not a candi-
date for playing time at safety.
He played real well last night and
I feel real good about him, Cough-
lin said. He had a couple of serious
injuries. We want him to get close to
100 percent physically as possible.
We know hes a player. Hes
certainly a talented guy, an out-
standing player. Were trying to get
him on the feld where his conf-
dence is up. We havent thought
about another spot. We just want
to get him confdent and playing.

SOUTH WILLIAMSPORT, Pa.
Ryusei Hirooka lined a decisive
two-run double in the bottom of
the ffh inning, Shunpei Takagi hit
two solo home runs, and Tokyo beat
Chula Vista, Calif., 6-4 on Sunday to
win the Little League World Series.
It was the 14th championship
game for Japan, which was making
its fourth straight appearance
in the title Game, and ninth
championship. California,
making its 23rd championship-
game appearance, has won
seven World Series titles.
Giancarlo Cortez had a two-
run single and Grant Holman
an RBI single for Chula Vista.
Trailing 4-3 afer Cortez's clutch
single in the fourth, Japan tied it
on Takagi's second homer and won
it when Hirooka lined a 2-2 pitch
down the lef-feld line for a double.
California beat Westport, Conn.,
12-1 in the U.S. championship game
Saturday, while Japan beat Mexico
3-2 for the international title.
Japan fnished the tournament
undefeated but had to rally to
beat the Americans, who lef
12 runners on base in a game
that was there for the taking.
Facing one last threat in the sixth,
the Japanese players erupted in glee,
tossing manager Masumi Omae
in the air near the mound afer
his slick felders had turned
a game-ending double play.
Unbeaten, too, entering
the game, Chula Vista struck
early to send a message that
it would be a tense afair.
Keyed by the shaggy-haired duo
of Micah Pietila-Wiggs and Jake
Espinoza at the top of the order,
California scored twice in the
top of the frst against Japan starter
Kazuki Ishida to put the pressure on.
Pietila-Wiggs was hit by a pitch
leading of and Espinoza lined
a double down the lef-feld
line. PietilaWiggs came around
to score on a passed ball and
Holman singled home Espinoza.
California received a scare when
Cortez was hit by a pitch in the
helmet during the frst inning and
departed for a pinch-runner afer
being examined on the feld. Ishida
went over to shake Cortez's hand
and apologize, and Cortez returned
to play his position when Chula
Vista took the feld for the frst time.
Holman, who pitched a no-hitter
earlier in the World Series, hadn't
pitched since Wednesday and
was shaky at the outset, walking
two of the frst three batters he
faced and throwing a wild pitch
as Japan quickly mounted a threat
of its own and tied the score.
Takuma Gomi, whose dramatic
solo home run in the top of the sixth
had given Japan a 3-2 victory over
Mexico in the international
championship on Saturday,
lined an RBI single. A botched
throw in from the outfeld on
the hit sailed wide of home
plate, allowing Takagi, who had
walked, to score the second run.
California escaped further
damage when Kyousuke Kobayashi
singled to center and Espinoza
threw out Gomi at home.
Te West champions mounted
another threat in the second,
loading the bases with two outs.
But Holman struck out, waving his
bat ever-so-slightly at a pitch that
was low and outside and shaking
his head indismay at the call.
If Japan had a plan, it likely was to
make the hard-throwing Holman
work, and the tall right-hander did
just that. When he struck out Sho
Miyao looking to end the second
inning, he had thrown 50 pitches.
Not a good omen for the West
champions with a maximum of 85
allowed and Nick Mora, the hero
of Saturday's win over Connecticut
with a 10-strikeout, two-hit
performance, ineligible to pitch.
Ishida wasn't faring any better.
Afer three innings he had thrown
69 pitches, struck out fve, walked
three, and hit three batters.
Japan took a 3-2 lead when Takagi
led of the bottom of the third by
slamming a home run over the
rightfeld fence on an 0-1 pitch. A
smile on his face, Takagi raised his
right arm in triumph as he rounded
the bases and was mobbed by his
teammates afer crossing the plate.
Holman avoided further
damage by striking out pinch-
hitter Tatsuki Nagano and
getting pinch-hitter Seiya
Nishino to ground out to frst
with two runners on. When he
went to the dugout, Holman
had only three pitches lef to
reach the maximum of 85 and
was relieved by Ricky Tibbett.
Te Japanese pitchers kept the hot-
hitting Pietila-Wiggs of-balance at
the plate, but afer getting fooled
by a pitch in the top of the fourth
he laced a ground-rule double
down the lef-feld line. Espinoza
followed with a bloop single to lef
and took second on the throw in.
Ishida then hit Mora to load the
bases, tying the World Series record
for most hit batsmen in a game,
and Keita Saito came on in relief.
Batting for the second straight
time with the bases loaded, Holman,
who hit a grand slam earlier in the
World Series, grounded to
third and Japan got the forceout
at home for the frst out.
A day earlier, Japan twice escaped
big jams in the win over Mexico,
once with the bases loaded and
nobody out. Tis time they
failed as Cortez laced a two-run
single to lef feld for a 4-3 lead.
Ricky Tibbett relieved Holman
in the fourth and retired the
side in order, striking out
two, as Chula Vista crept
that much closer to the title.
Patrick Archer walked leading
of the ffh and Dominic
Haley reached on an error by
Tsuchida to give California
a chance to extend its lead.
Wiggs then laced a shoulder-
high fastball down the lef-feld
line for a single to load the bases,
the ball hit too hard for Archer to
score from second. Tat proved
critical when Espinoza lined to
lef and Archer was out at home
on a strong throw by Gomi.
Mora struck out swinging
to end the inning, stranding
another two runners.
Japan immediately took advantage
when Takagi tied the score at 4
with his second home run, a blast
to center feld. Gomi followed
with a single, Kobayashi reached
on an infeld single, and Hirooka
lined a 2-2 pitch down the lef-
feld line for the game-winning hit.
Chula Vista threatened in the top
of the sixth, putting two runners
on, but Kobayashi got Bateman
to hit a sof one-hopper to frst.
Kensuke Tsuchida stepped on
the bag for the out and threw
to second, where shortstop
Sho Miyao tagged out pinch-
runner Michael Gaines to end it.

Atlanta, which has the best re-
cord in the NL, broke a three-game
losing streak and salvaged the f-
nal game of the four-game set.
St. Louis had a four-game win-
ning streak snapped. Minor (13-
5) gave up one run on six hits. He
struck out two and walked one. He
was pitching on seven days rest afer
allowing four runs in 1 2-3 innings
against Washington on Aug. 17.
Minor, who legged out an in-

his team-high 19th quality start.
Simmons hit his 12th homer
of the season, a solo shot in the
seventh that gave the Braves a
4-1 lead.Craig Kimbrel came
on with two out in the eighth
and picked up his 41st save in
44 opportunities. It was his frst
four-out save of the season.
Atlanta jumped on St. Louis
starter Lance Lynn (13-8) early
with one run in the frst and two in

JOHANNESBURG Oscar Pis-
torius character, his temper and his
use of guns are expected to be exam-
ined in his murder trial for the killing
of girlfriend Reeva Steenkamp, based
on the prosecutions list of witnesses.
Members of Oscar Pistorius family, an
ex-girlfriend, some of his friends and neigh-
bors, men connected to frearms clubs, a
professional cage fghter, a boxer and a host
of police specialists and experts are listed as
prosecution witnesses for the double-am-
putee Olympians murder trial next year.
Te Associated Press takes a closer look
at some of the 107 state witnesses afer Pis-
torius was indicted on a charge of premed-
itated murder for the killing of Steenkamp.
His trial is set to start on March 3, 2014.
FIRST ON THE SCENE
Pistorius said in an afdavit, his only
testimony so far, that Johan Stander was
the frst person he phoned afer he shot
Steenkamp in the pre-dawn hours of Feb.
14. He asked Stander to call an ambulance.
Stander, who Pistorius described as an ad-
ministrator of the gated community where
the athlete lived, arrived at the house as
Pistorius carried a fatally wounded Steen-
kamp downstairs, according to Pistorius.
As the frst person to talk to and to see
Pistorius afer the shooting, Standers
observations of the immediate afer-
math may help a judge decide whether
Pistorius had minutes earlier commit-
ted murder, as prosecutors say, or made
a deadly mistake the core of the trial.
NEIGHBORS, GUARDS & THE DOCTOR
Tere are 18 people, including Stander,
on the state witness list connected to the
Silver Woods Estate where Pistorius lived.
A key part of the prosecutors case is
that they say some of the witnesses, like-
ly neighbors or estate workers, heard
a woman scream before the gunshots.
Te suggestion is not only of a fght be-
tween the couple, but also that Pisto-
rius should have known where Steen-
kamp was by the scream before he shot.
Security guards and an unnamed doc-
tor, who Pistorius said lived at Silver
Woods and also arrived at his house
soon afer he shot Steenkamp, may tes-
tify. Te prosecution says that Pistorius
walked into security guards when he
went downstairs carrying Steenkamp. Te
guards are not mentioned by Pistorus.
PISTORIUS FAMILY & FRIENDS
Pistorius uncle Arnold, brother Carl and
sister Aimee are all named as prosecution
witnesses. Its unclear when or if members
of Pistorius family arrived at his home
in the hours following the shooting, but
the prosecution said in an initial charge
sheet that the runner said to a friend/
sister that he thought it was a burglar,
claiming Pistorius talked to people close
to him soon afer he killed Steenkamp.
Other friends of Pistorius are witness-
es, including one who also lived at Silver
Woods and a car dealer who says he intro-
duced Pistorius and Steenkamp in 2012.
TOP COPS & EXPERTS
Nearly 50 police ofcers and experts
could be called by the state at the trial,
including 17 forensic, ballistics and crime
scene specialists and a criminal psycholo-
gist. Also involved in the case are members
of South Africas Directorate for Priority
Crime Investigation, which deals with na-
tional priority crimes and shows how se-
riously the countrys authorities are taking
the case against its one-time sporting hero.
Hilton Botha, the polices former
lead investigator who was dropped
from the case and later lef the force,
will likely reappear as a state witness.
DRUGS & SUBSTANCES
A sports medicine specialist and the head
of the South African sports doping labo-
ratory are listed as possible witnesses and
may deal with any substances being taken
by Pistorius amid initial claims by inves-
tigators that they found testosterone in
his bedroom. Prosecutors withdrew that
claim and Pistorius representatives identi-
fed the substance he was using as a legal
herbal remedy called testis compositum.
Police havent yet said what substanc-
es they may have found in the Olym-
pians house or through tests on him.
THE EX-GIRLFRIEND
Ex-girlfriend Samantha Taylor appar-
ently has stories to tell about Pistori-
us. She was in a car when he fred a gun
through the sunroof in anger at being
stopped by police at a road checkpoint,
according to a South African television
channel. Taylors mother, Trish Taylor, re-
portedly posted on Facebook soon afer
the shooting: I am so glad Sammy is safe
and sound and out of the clutches of that
man. Tere were a few occasions when
things could have gone wrong with her
and his gun during the time they dated.
Te comments were later removed and
the Taylors have declined to comment.
Mother and daughter are both prosecu-
tion witnesses. Two other women Pistori-
us was once involved with also are listed.
CHARACTER WITNESSES
Te Taylors, a former professional soccer
player and a boxer could testify to Pistori-
us character and whether, as prosecutors
may hint, he was prone to anger and pos-
sibly violence and was reckless with guns.
Te former soccer player, Mark
Batchelor, has said that a drunk-
en Pistorius once threatened him.
Te boxer, Kevin Lerena, is believed
to have been with Pistorius at a Johan-
nesburg restaurant weeks before the
shooting when the athlete shot a gun
accidentally under a table. Te naming
of two men from frearms clubs Pistori-
us had connections to shows that pros-
ecutors will examine his gun history.
Close friends of Steenkamp and
an ex-boyfriend of the model also
are named by the state as witnesses.
THE UNKNOWNS
Its not certain what connections a Jo-
hannesburg-based cage fghter has to
the case. Also intriguing is what testi-
mony may come from Elizabeth de Jager
of the South African Weather Service.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. Salva-
dor Perez homered early, then
drove in the tiebreaking run in
the eighth and the Kansas City
Royals ended their seven-game
losing streak on Sunday, rebound-
ing for a 6-4 victory afer blowing
a 4-0 lead against Washington.
With two out and a runner on frst
and the game tied 4-all in the eighth,
Billy Butler hit a hard grounder
that frst baseman Adam LaRo-
che knocked down. Te ball rolled
several feet to his right and when
Stammen was late to cover the
bag, the slow-running Butler kept
the inning going by chugging to
frst with an infeld single. Stam-
men then walked Mike Moustak-
as on fourth pitches and Perez hit
a hard grounder to shortstop Ian
Desmond. He bobbled momentari-
ly and his throw to third was late, al-
lowing the tiebreaking run to cross
the plate on what was frst ruled a
felders choice and then changed
to an infeld single before David
Loughs RBI single made it 6-4.
Kelvin Herrera (5-6) pitched 1 1-3
innings of relief for only the Royals
third victory in 13 games. Craig
Stammen (7-6) took the loss
and was part of a shaky de-
fense that led to the Nation-
als frst loss in six road outings.
Greg Holland pitched the ninth
for his 35th save in 37 oppor-
tunities, giving up two singles
but striking out the side. Stam-
men went one inning, gave up
three hits and two earned runs.
Royals starter Ervin Santana
was handed a 4-0 lead afer the
frst inning but gave up three
home runs, including Bryce Harp-
ers two-run shot with two out
in the seventh that tied it 4-all.
Santana had a 4-1 lead and two
out in the seventh when Denard
Spans third hit of the day went for
his third home run of the year. Ryan
Zimmerman followed with a single,
bringing a visit to the mound by
Royals pitching coach Dave
Eiland. Harper then hit Santa-
nas next pitch over the fence
in lef-center, bringing Her-
rera in from the bullpen.
Washington starter Dan Ha-
ren entered the game 4-0 in six
career starts in Kaufman Sta-
dium and had never allowed
more than two earned runs in
KC, But that quickly changed.
On Harens third pitch, Gordon hit
the 11th leadof home run of his ca-
reer. Afer Emilio Bonifacio walked,
Eric Hosmer hit an RBI single.
Hosmer was out trying to steal, then
Mike Moustakas singled and Perez
homered for a 4-0 lead against Ha-
ren, who had been 4-2 since com-
ing back from the DL on July 8.
Haren was in danger again in the
second and saved only by a stand-
out double play started by LaRo-
che, who dove to his right to spear
a line smash of Gordons bat. From
his knees, LaRoche threw to second
base to double of Alcides Escobar.
Afer that, Haren allowed only
two singles while going sev-
en innings. He was charged
with four runs on eight hits.
In the Nationals fourth, Des-
mond homered for the second
time in two games. Te ball
bounced of the facade of the Roy-
als hall of fame behind lef feld
and was estimated at 431 feet.
Span drilled a ball of Santanas
right hip with one out in the third,
the ball bounding all the way into
foul territory behind third base
while Anthony Rendon went from
second to third. But afer testing
the leg and visiting with the Roy-
als trainer on the mound, Santana
stayed in to strike out Zimmerman
and retire Harper on a shallow fy.
Santana was charged with four
runs on 11 hits in 6 2-3 innings,
with seven strikeouts and no walks.
Chiefs release fan favorite Stanzi, with Bray winning third string

Kansas City Royals relief pitcher Greg Holland, left, and catcher Salvador Perez, right, celebrate their 6-4 win over the Washington Nationals at the end of a baseball game
at Kauffman Stadium in Kansas City, Mo., yesterday.
KANSAS CITY, Mo. Te
Kansas City Chiefs parted ways
with one of their most polariz-
ing quarterbacks in recent years
Sunday when they cut Ricky
Stanzi, a former ffh-round draf
pick who never saw the feld
yet some fans seemed to love.
Stanzi was among 14 players who
were cut ahead of Tuesdays dead-
line to reach the 75-man roster limit.
Te Chiefs must reach the
53-man limit for the reg-
ular season by Saturday.
Stanzi, who was drafed by former
general manager Scott Pioli, was
beaten out for the No. 3 quarterback
job by undrafed free-agent Tyler
Bray. Stanzi was just 5 of 12 for 42
yards in the preseason, and did not
play in the most recent two games.
Kansas City wraps up its
preseason schedule Turs-
day night against Green Bay.
Stanzi was joined by wide re-
ceiver Terrance Copper and de-
fensive back Neiko Torpe in
players who were part of last
years 2-14 team that were in-
volved in the frst round of cuts.
Also cut Sunday were cornerbacks
Vince Agnew, Otha Foster III, Ka-
maal McIlwain; ofensive linemen
Ryan Durand, A.J. Hawkins
and Hutch Eckerson; defensive
ends Miguel Chavis and Rob
Lohr; running back Jordan Rob-
erts; fullback Braden Wilson and
wide receiver Tyler Shoemaker.
Tis is always a difcult time of
year, new GM John Dorsey said.
We have to make decisions that
we feel are in the best interest of
our football team and unfortu-
nately this is part of the process.
Tese gentlemen have put in a lot
of hard work and efort for our
franchise, and we wish them noth-
ing but the best moving forward.
While it was widely expected
that Stanzi would be dismissed, the
Chiefs decision to cut loose Copper,
Torpe and Wilson ahead of the
fnal round was a bit surprising.
Copper had eight catches for 79
yards last season, but was a valu-
able contributor on special teams.
Torpe was active for nine games
afer making the team as an un-
drafed free agent out of Auburn.
Wilson was the Chiefs sixth-
round draf pick just this year.
We told the guys at the begin-
ning of the year to make it as hard
as you can on John and me when
it comes down to making these
decisions, Reid said. Tese guys
have busted their tails, and its their
profession. We wish them all the
best of luck when they leave here
that they have an opportunity to
go play somewhere else. You never
know in this business, you could be
coming right back, you never know
how it works. Its a crazy thing.
