At 4 a.m. and 4 p.m. everyday,Iwig Family Dairy milks its cows.Within days, its natural, local,healthy products are on the shel.
Located outside opeka, IwigFamily Dairy is one o our amily-owned arms producing or thenortheast Kansas area. One o theirtwo retail stores is located at 1901Massachusetts Street. Te locationoers ice cream, butter, and otherproducts including milk that wasdrawn rom one o 65 Iwig cowsless than two days beore beingstocked on the shel or sale.
Teres no way you can get milkas resh as ours anywhere else inLawrence, said im Iwig, the com-pany owner.
What makes Iwig unique, how-ever, isnt just its reshness. Whileall other dairy distributors in thearea use high temperature pasteuri-zation, which damages the enzymesin cow milk, Iwigs low temperatureprocess makes his milk more di-gestible or more people.
Our milk is the healthiest milkyou can buy that has bee n pasteur-ized, Iwig said.
Freshman Jordan Falley romecumseh, has been drinking Iwigmilk with her amily or years. Morethan anything, she appreciates thattheir products are environmen-tally riendly. Iwigmilk comes in glassbottles which, Iwigsays, is both cleanerand healthier andprevents the milkrom tasting likeplastic. When Fal-ley purchases agallon, she brings
back her used glassbottles to exchangeor a discount.
Teir chocolate milk is betterthan any other milk Ive ever had,Falley said.
While Iwigs dedicated custom-ers are willing to pay or premiummilk, the company is experiencinghard times. Kansas has been expe-riencing drought weather or nearlytwo years, which makes nding ac-
ceptable hay to eed cows dicultand expensive.
National dairy prices are cur-rently determined by a highly com-plicated ormula with actors in-cluding processing plants, storageacilities and a nancial exchangeo large dairy corporations based
in Chicago.Milk prices arelargely basedon supply anddemand, notcalculating inarmers costp r od uct ion ,Iwig says.
h e r e
needs to besome kind o
relie or dairy producers to getthrough this kind o a drought situ-ation in this part o the country,Iwig said. We try to price so wecan stay on top but thats been di-cult with hay prices the way theyare.
o temporarily avoid infatingmilk prices projected by some to beas much as $8 per gallon, Congress
approved a nine month extensiono the Farm Bill in December 2012.Private armers are hopeul thatCongress will pass legislature thatremodels and simplies how milkprices are calculated beore theFarm Bill extension expires.
Iwig is hoping sales at the Law-rence location, which opened thispast summer, pick up and carry thecompany through tough economictimes. Te Lawrence location isntdoing as well as he had hoped or,possibly due to its less popularstore location or its ollowers notknowing about it. In November,Iwig had to le or bankruptcy.
Iwig, however, is condent in
the quality and healthiness o hisproduct.
I more people knew why oursis better, more people would buy it,Iwig said. Not only do we do milkbut we have the probably the bestice cream you can buy in Lawrenceor opeka.
In the meantime, Iwig will be
looking to expand in Lawrence.

As her riends huddle together
in a circle on the loor, theyre
asked to describe her personality.
he phrases they use give insight
into her character: shes alwayslaughing at hersel and smiling. A
hard worker. Values relationships
with her amily and riends. Andalthough she isnt present, there is
a common thread that connects
each vignette:
Shes just got the biggest heart,and she
b e r i e n d s
a n y b o d y
and every-b o d y ,
said asha
Johnson, a
H i g h l a n dR a n c h ,
Colo. soph-
o m o r e .
Shes justthe type o
person whos beautiul in and out,
always.
Eleanor Cizek, a sophomorerom St. Paul, Minn., was seri-
ously injured in a skiing accident
in Colorado on Jan. 9. According
to posts by her amily on herCaringBridge website, she hit
a padded pole, became uncon-
scious and was airlited to Denver
with bruising on the let sideo her brain. Ater remaining in
a medically induced coma, she
woke up one week ater sustain-
ing her traumatic brain injury.Although the road to recovery
wont be speedy, Cizeks riends
and members o her sorority have
vowed to stick by her throughher journey. Using social media
and the hashtag #CizekStrong,
together they have raised aware-
ness about Cizek and her condi-tion and united their ollowers in
a sea o support.
We just wanted her to know
that were all sending love andprayers and supporting, said
Jillian Pa, a sophomore rom
Overland Park.
She would have done the same
thing or any o us, Johnsonadded.
Josie Vignatelli, a sophomore
rom Leawood, was with Cizekat the time o her accident.
She expressed that the care she
received immediately ollow-
ing the accident was lie saving.While she continues to receive
superior care, Johnson said the
collective support is helping to
improve her condition.
Every time I visit her in thehospital they say how much they
think her progress is going along
because people are storming the
heavens with prayers and the loveand support shes getting is amaz-
ing, she said. We just want to
keep that going because it is such
a long process.Posts rom her CaringBridge
blog describe Cizeks recovery as
a marathon and not a sprint.
Her MRI results were indicativeo a signiicant second phase to
her healing that requires physi-
cal therapy and relearning cer-
tain skills. However, her doctorsthink that with her youth, Cizeks
recovery looks promising.
In order to oer support or
Cizek and her amily, memberso the campaign started selling
bracelets with the Cizek Strong
slogan. hey are currently avail-able or $5 and can be purchased
by emailing cizekstrong@gmail.
com. -shirts are also being pre-
pared and will be available soon.Proceeds will help oset the costs
o the Cizek amilys weekly com-
mutes to Denver.
Ater seeing Cizek and heramily in Denver, Vignatelli eels
the campaign is representative o
the amilys attitude in the ace o
adversity.Her amily just embodies so
much strength and determina-
tion, yet theyre so positive andupbeat about the entire situation,she said. I eel like the bands are
kind o a symbol o that.
As her riends continue to
converse about Cizek, her amilyand the desire to help, its clear
that Cizek Strong is sending a
message o united, unconditional
support.I think its just important to
get out there that not only do
her close riends and people who
know her here at KU supporther, but the entire community
and the entire school, Vignatelli
said. No matter what, its going
to be a long road ahead, but well
continue to support her whetherits a month rom now, six months
rom now, and so will the entire
KU community.For more inormation about

Support and stability go hand
in hand when talking about the
potential success o a program.Recently, the University debate
team got a little help to ensure
both o those critical needs will
be met.In partnership with KU
Endowment, David Pittaway, a
1972 University graduate and or-
mer member o the debate team,gave a $500,000 git to the debate
program.
KUs debate team has longbeen important to David Pittaway.He realized that the skills he
learned in debate helped urther
his career, said KU Endowment
media relations manager LisaScheller.
Scheller said the git applies
toward KU Endowments Far
Above campaign, which she saidseeks support to educate uture
leaders, advance medicine, accel-
erate discovery and drive econom-
ic growth to seize the opportuni-ties o the uture. he $500,000
will count toward the campaigns
$1.2 billion goal.
he ocus o the endowedund created by Pittaways git is
to provide support or the head
coach, including salary, travel and
recruitment expenses, as well asany other related needs. According
to Scheller, a portion o the unds
interest could be available to theprogram in March o this year.
Dale Seuerling, president o
KU Endowment, said Pittaways
git will have an impact in manyaspects o the University as well as
the debate program.
[Pittaway] recognizes the
importance strong academic pro-gram have on the Universitys
reputation, he said. he pro-
essorship und he has endowed
will provide essential resourcesto sustain KUs legacy o stellar
debate coaches or many genera-
tions. Moreover, his git will help
us reach one o the Far Abovecampaigns main goals, to develop
uture l eaders.
Current debate coach Scott
Harris said there are three speciicneeds that debate has targeted that
he hopes endowment undraising
will alleviate: support or long-
term coaching stability, generatingadditional scholarship revenue,
and the ongoing costs o travel to
competitions.
When debate programs havecome and gone at universities
around the country, its largely
been a product o lack o support
or a coaching position, Harrissaid.
he ability to oer ull scholar-
ships or debate is also something
that Harris believes is a setback ordebate at the University.
We compete with other schools,
many o them oer ull scholar-
ships or debate, and we currentlydo not have the ability to do that,
so it sometimes puts us in a non-
competitive position, he said.
his year, Harris said the teamis about twice the size o most
other years, traveling 30 students
to approximately 20 tournaments
all over the country, more studentsthan the program has traveled in
the past 25 years. he team is
currently ourth in the country inthe National Debate ournament
Varsity rankings.
For Harris, the git has a spe-
cial meaning to KU debate. DonnParson held the title o debate
coach or 25 years and was the
coach Pittaway debated or. At the
end o last all, Parson retired ater49 years as a proessor at KU.
I have called him the Phog
Allen o the debate program,
Harris said. he act that one o
his ormer debaters was commit-
ted to the support or coachingI think is a tribute to all that Dr.
Parson meant to the debate pro-
gram.

LEGAL
Lawsuit reveals support from anti-abortion activistsassocIaTed Press
WICHIA, Kan. A lawsuit
against a Kansas woman who
publicly proclaimed her admi-ration or the man who gunned
down one o the countrys ew
late-term abortion providers is
revealing the unwavering sup-port a small group o radical
anti-abortion activists has or theimprisoned killer despite an on-
going ederal investigation intothe 2009 slaying.
Tough no ederal indictments
have been handed down by a
grand jury investigating whetherDr. George illers death was con-
nected to a broader case involving
extreme anti-abortion activists,
the lawsuit against Angel Dillardis one indication the Justice De-
partment is taking a more heavy
handed approach to perceived
threats to abortion providers. Inaddition to alleging Dillard, o
Valley Center, sent a threatening
letter in 2011 to another Wichita
doctor who was training to oer
abortions, the lawsuit also high-
lights Dillards relationship with
Scott Roeder, the man convictedo atally shooting iller at the
physicians church.
When Roeder opened re on
iller, he propelled himsel toicon status among abortion op-
ponent extremists a status that
hasnt wavered since he was sen-tenced to lie in prison. A leaderin the Army o God, which sup-
ports violence against abortion
doctors, notes Roeder gets more
correspondence than other im-prisoned anti-abortion activists.
Hailed by militant anti-abor-
tion orces as a prisoner o
Christ, Roeder has been spread-ing his radical views rom a Kan-
sas prison. Other extremists have
gravitated to Roeder, visiting him
in prison, sending him moneyand oering legal advice, court
documents show.
Abortion rights supporters
ear a disturbing pattern whereby
imprisoned abortion opponents
inspire others to commit urther
acts o violence against abortionproviders and clinics. But radi-
cal anti-abortion activists con-
tend the government is trying to
suppress serious opposition toabortion by targeting Dillard.
We are always concerned
when extremists are getting to-
gether and spreading hate andencouraging others to engage in
criminal activity, said Vicki Sa-
porta, executive director o the
National Abortion Federation,the proessional association rep-
resenting abortion providers.
A ederal grand jury began in-
vestigating in 2010 whether il-lers murder was connected to a
larger case involving radical anti-
abortion activists. Tough no
public charges have been led, aspokeswoman or the Justice De-
partments Civil Rights Division,
Dena Iverson, said the investiga-
tion is still open.Te lawsuit against Dillard
was led in April 2011 under a
ederal law aimed at protectingaccess to reproductive services.
It seeks a court order keeping her
rom coming within 250 eet o
the doctor, along with damageso $5,000 and a civil penalty o
$15,000. Te case is scheduled or
trial in October.
Dillard had been under gov-
ernment scrutiny even beore shemailed the letter to the Wichita
doctor, and the FBI had inter-
viewed her several times afer sherst wrote Roeder in prison.
I think they just wanted to
check us out and make sure that
we werent nuts who were plan-ning to pick up where they think
Roeder lef o, Dillard told Te
Associated Press in 2009, adding
that she and her husband had noplans to do anything o violence
to anyone and wanted to minis-
ter to Roeder. Dillard also said she
admired Roeder and developed a
riendship with him.
Dillard is now claiming minis-
terial privilege in reusing to an-swer the governments questions
about that relationship. Her attor-
ney, Donald McKinney, argued
his clients religious ministry isprotected by the First Amend-
ment. But deense lings in her
case made public jail records de-
tailing more than a dozen visitsand deposits totaling $373 she
made to Roeders inmate undbetween April 2010 and March
2012. Tose documents showedcontributions rom others.
Te ongoing support or Roed-
er also is apparent in the appeal
o his murder conviction. Sevenabortion opponents who asked
in 2010 and 2011 to le riend-
o-the-court bries were spurned
without comment by the KansasSupreme Court. Other activists
are now writing legal bries or
Roeder to le himsel, arguing
illers death was necessary todeend the unborn. No oral ar-
guments are scheduled in his ap-
peal.

NEW YORK It sounds, atfirst, like a bold, next-generationsolution: personalizing guns withtechnology that keeps them fromfiring if they ever get into the wronghands.
But when the White Housecalled for pushing ahead with suchnew technology as part of PresidentObamas plan to cut gun violence,the administration did not mentionthe concepts embattled past. Aswith so much else in the nationslong-running divisions over gunrights and regulation, what soundslike a futuristic vision is, in fact, anidea that has been kicked aroundfor years, sidelined by intense sus-picion, doubts about feasibility andpressure tactics.
Now proponents of so-called per-sonalized or smart guns are hopingthe nations renewed attention onfirearms following the Newtownschool massacre will kick start theresearch and sale of safer weapons.But despite the Obama administra-tions promise to encourage thedevelopment of innovative gunsafety technology, advocates havegood reason to be wary.
In the fiery debate over guns,personalized weapons have longoccupied particularly shaky ground
an idea criticized both by gun-rights groups and some gun controladvocates.
To the gun groups, the idea ofusing technology to control whocan fire a gun smacks of a limitationon personal rights, particularly if itmight be mandated by government.At the same time, some gun controladvocates worry that such technol-ogy, by making guns appear falselysafe, would encourage Americansto stock up on even more weap-ons than they already have in theirhomes.
Without the politics, the notionof using radio frequency technol-ogy, biometric sensors or othergadgetry in a gun capable of recog-nizing its owner sounds like some-thing straight out of James Bond.In fact, it is. In the latest Bond flick,
Skyfall, Agent 007s quartermasterpasses him a 9 mm pistol coded tohis palm print.
Only you can fire it, the contacttells the agent. Less of a randomkilling machine. More of a personalstatement.
In real life, though, theres nogetting around the politics, andthe debate over personalized gunslong ago strayed well beyond ques-tions of whether the technologywill work.
Colts Manufacturing Company
developed a gun equipped with amicrochip that would prevent itfrom firing unless the user waswearing an enabling device locat-ed in a special wristband. But gunrights activists were skeptical, partlybecause the government was fund-ing research of the concept andbecause gun control advocatesembraced it.
Mike Bazinet, a spokesmanfor the National Shooting SportsFoundation, which represents gunmanufacturers, said questionsremain about whether the tech-nology has been improved enoughto assure police officers and civil-ians a personalized weapon wouldfire when they need protection. Butthere are also concerns about indi-vidual consumers ability to choosethe firearm that they think is best
for them, Bazinet said.The White House has promised
to issue a report on the technologyand award prizes to companies thatcome up with innovative and cost-effective personalized guns, and itsinterest has rejuvenated hopes thatthe gun of the future may actuallyhave one.

Inaugural festivities concluded
last week, but any opinionat-
ed observer can point out that
President Obamas real second-term challenges are just begin-
ning. Instead of listing looming
battles or bemoaning our politicaldivisions, Id like to reflect on asituation not too different from
todays polarized political sphere.
Before supporters began trek-
king to Pennsylvania Avenue,the North Korean government
decided to spark some fireworks
of its own by launching a satellite
into space on Dec. 12. Althoughthe moves news coverage couldnt
match play-by-plays of the
inaugural parade route or First
Familys wardrobe, North Koreaachieved its objective of making
waves internationally without
actually sending the Unha-3 rock-
et splashing into the ocean.Although politicians disagree
on nearly every political ques-
tion, at least the pundits can agreepolitics lacks bipartisan coopera-tion. In fact, the Huffington Post
reported the 112th Congress
passed fewer pieces of legislation
than any other Congress sincethe 1940s. Partisan divides might
seem overwhelming, but theyre
not nearly as deep as disputes
between North and South Korea.
Compromise seems impos-sible; each side portrays itself as
the legitimate government of a
future reunified peninsula. Just
weeks before the satellite launch,Royal United Services Institute
researcher Andrea Berger met
with North Korean military
personnel to discuss the nuclearprogram; the officials all blamed
hostile U.S. policies for the
build up. In turn, South Korea
and the United States blameNorth Korean provocations for
tough military postures. Like in
Washington D.C., as long as each
side can deflect responsibility itcan avoid tackling shared chal-
lenges.
Countries and political parties
cant always act in a unified way;individuals deviate from agreed-
upon strategies. In Congress it
might be a single representative
publicly disagreeing with theparty line; in the case of Korea
it happened to be self-appointed
diplomats. In early January,
former New Mexican Gov. BillRichardson and Google Executive
Chairman Eric Schmidt jet-
ted to the North Korean capital
Pyongyang to meet with national
leaders. Their visit wasnt directed
by the White House foreign pol-
icy team. The State D epartmentdescribed the visits timing as not
helpful, while a less diplomatic
John McCain called the gentle-
men useful idiots on Twitter.This kind of political stunt can
dominate media commentary
and prompt equally dramatic
responses, so skilled politiciansmust ensure the broader dialogue
remains on track.
Thats easier said than done, as
journalists and politicians often
magnify the potential downsideof any particular event. Just
observe negotiations building to
a crescendo as a new deadlinelooms. Some analysts predicted
the North Korean satellite launch
would immediately destabilize
East Asia while South Korea,
Japan, China and the UnitedStates conducted power tran-
sitions. However, the Global
Security Newswire interviewed
experts who concluded thatNorth Korea did not yet repre-
sent a credible threat. One evendescribed the Unha technology
as a baby satellite launcher.Viewing challenges realistically
can allow leaders to resist inflam-
matory rhetoric and frankly come
to agreement about what shouldbe done.
Of course, we assume our lead-
ers inform themselves to under-
stand the underlying structuresthat endanger political projects
of motivate international actors.
Chinese support remains essential
to the success of Kim Jong-Unand the North Korean state.
Chinese economic assistance and
trade props up the North Korean
economy, and Chinas global sta-
tus can shield North Korea from
international pressure. AbsentChinese cooperation, leaders
cannot expect success engagingor sanctioning the North Korean
regime. In the past this coopera-
tion between the United States
and China has been notablyabsent.
If one understands that basic
reality, then the news that
emerged as the Obamas attended
their Inaugural Ball becomesincredibly significant in the con-
text of the ongoing Korean con-
flict. China and the United Statesmanaged to agree within theUnited Nations to expand sanc-
tions against North Korea. For the
first time China signaled regret
for North Koreas progressiontoward nuclear weapons capabil-
ity. The U.S. and China each gave
up portions of their initial pro-
posals, but by ignoring irrelevantpolitical posturing and seeking
out clear understandings two
rival powers are working together
toward a common goal. So beforethrowing our hands up in the
air and declaring the incoming
Congress incompetent, grid-
locked, and ultimately doomed,keep an eye on East Asia.
The lesson? Progress can hap-
pen, even among unlikely part-ners.

The typical New Year reso-
lutions of be healthier,
be happier, or get bettergrades tend not to work. They
sound nice, of course, but veryquickly into the year we find out
we couldnt actually carry on withthem, and we end up not chang-
ing much of our behavior.
When we realize we havent
changed anything it is easy toblame our lack of willpower,
or our laziness. We usually tell
ourselves we didnt work hard
enough. Thats possible. But hereis the truth: the secret to New
Year resolutions that produce
results is not to work harder, but
to make smarter resolutions.If your New Year resolutions
always work, no need to keep
reading. But if you think you can
use some extra help, I will showyou a way of fixing the problem.
All we need are two simple rules.
These two rules are based ontwo principles thought out by amodern-day American manage-
ment guru and an Italian sociolo-
gist and economist. The rules are
measurability and simplicity. Andif you apply them to your New
Year resolutions, I guarantee your
results will be better than they
have ever been.
The American guy is PeterDrucker, and the principle behind
measurability is his famous
quote, what gets measured, getsmanaged. So, rather than makebroad, hard-to-measure resolu-
tions, we use measurability to
make our goals clear and easy
to stick to. Here is an example:my girlfriends resolution was to
have more energy. But, damn,
that is a broad goal. To make
it measurable, she focused onwhat changes she could make to
have more energy. Those boiled
down to sleep, exercise and eating
healthy. Because she does mostof the healthy hippie stuff you are
supposed to do (daily yoga, eat-
ing vegetarian and whatnot), she
decided she would specify the res-olution to sleep more. Definitely
a smarter resolution. But to make
it truly measurable, she changed
it to be in bed at 10 p.m. onweekdays. Bingo! The resolution
is now specific and measurable.
She is already sleeping more, and
wakes up with more energy.Measurability is a pretty good
rule. But when we are making
very specific goals, it is easy tochoose a lot of them, and make
it complex. For instance, my girl-
friend could have decided to go
to bed at 10 p.m., exercise twice
a day, eat healthier foods, and domore yoga. The problem is: there
are a heck of lot of goals to keep
track of. And when we are over-
whelmed with a complex resolu-
tion, lack of simplicity quickly
becomes lack of action. So we use
another rule to power-up measur-ability.
This second rule is simplicity.
To simplify our resolutions, we
use the help of the Italian econo-
mist Vilfredo Pareto. He is theguy who came up with the Pareto
Law, which states that 80 percent
of results come from 20 percentof the causes. This tends to hold
true in economics (80 percent of
the wealth is owned by roughly
20 percent of the individuals),but also in our personal life (80
percent of the fun is packed in 20
percent of the days, or 80 percent
of the homework is given by 20percent of the teachers). Using
the Pareto Law and the measur-ability principle we can transformour broad, difficult resolutions in
a handful of specific and simple
goals. Here is an example on how
you can do it.I have been reading a lot of
Buddhist texts recently, and
decided I could use some extra
positivity in my life. My ini-tial resolution was to be more
positive. I am sure you can see
the problem with it: too broad,
yet too complex at the sametime. Because I tend to be pretty
positive about myself (you know,
I buy into a lot of that I am awe-
some self-help stuff), I decidedto be more specific on the goal.
So I changed it to only say posi-
tive things about other people.
Cool: much more specific. I stillneeded to simplify it, though. So
I decided to give away a dollar to
the person I am talking to every
time I say something negativeabout anyone. Sweet: specific,
measurable and simple resolution.
After some time, you start see-
ing the beauty of the Pareto Law.
Just a few weeks after startingthe resolution I have lost some
money, of course, but I have also
held my tongue many times to
not talk smack on other people(including basketball players
playing against us), and noticed
an overall increase in positiv-
ity. Changing this simple, singlebehavior has made me a more
positive person overall on both
my words and thoughts.
We are about a month into theNew Year now, and most of us
have done very little towards the
resolutions we so excitedly made
not long ago. More importantly,if we make the same kind of
resolutions we did last year, we
will invariably get the same bad
results.Give these two rules a shot. It is
easy to try, and it just might make
your year (and maybe the years
after) a whole lot better.

Iread the article on which
animated sitcom is bet-
ter, Family Guy or The
Simpsons. I was shocked and
appalled. I understand everyonehas their own opinion, and I
respect that. However, you have
no idea what you are talkingabout. Let me show you why that
is not an opinion, but a fact. Let
me assess what I gathered from
your article.First, you note the similarities
between the families, which are
comprised of a good mother, an
alcoholic father, two older chil-dren, and a baby. Let the record
show, the babys name is Maggie,
not Lisa. Lisa is one of the two
older children who are actuallyin elementary school. Second,
you say Family Guy is more
clever and originalit catches
the attention of the sitcomstarget audience, which is clearly
adult humor. Primari ly, adulthumor is not an audience, its a
style of humor directed towardsyoung adult males, such as your-
self. Secondly, if it werent for
The Simpsons, Family Guy
wouldnt exist. It was one of the
first ever prime-time animated
sitcoms, and it paved the way
for others. The Simpsons useshumor based off cultural refer-
ences ranging from music, TV,and movies to science, literature,
and history. It encompasses allaudiences.
Whether you are smart or
dumb, young or old, American
or not, The Simpsons is funny.
Thats what makes it a bettersitcom.
Third, you say that the creators
of Family Guy are more suc-
cessful. Seth MacFarlane hasthree shows, and one film.
Matt Groening, whom your
article fails to mention, has
two shows, at least one movie,and twelve Emmys, (ten from
The Simpsons and two from
Futurama) while MacFarlane
has two. The Simpsons has 27and Family Guy has four.
You dont have to like theshow, but learn to respect it,
because its probably one of thegreatest shows ever.

With the middle of the television
season upon us, I, like many of you,
have often wondered what would
be the best way to catch up on myfavorite series. If you are behind
on shows such as Breaking Bad,
How I Met Your Mother and
many other iconic shows that areentering their final year, Netflix
provides the best way to catch up
on your shows. With Netflix, we
have hundreds of shows that wecould re-watch, get caught up on or
even watch for the first time. The
big question to ask then is, What
should we be watching? Luckily,I have an answer for you. I spent
my hard-earned winter break nar-
rowing it down to three shows that
you should be watching on Netflixto get up to date in time for the new
seasons, or at the very least give
you something very entertaining to
enjoy with some friends.1. Arrested Development: This
short-lived show, which originally
aired on Fox from 2003 to 2006,
follows the infamous Bluth family,
specifically the son Michael, as heattempts to keep the family busi-
ness afloat and deal with his dys-
functional family. Starring Jason
Bateman, Will Arnett, MichaelCera, and more, it is a cult favor-
ite among many, although it only
lasted a few seasons. Not only isit ridiculously funny and well-written, but its being revived on
Netflix for one more season start-
ing in early May. This gives you
all the more reason to either watchit for the first time, or re-watch it
for the second or third time, like
I have.2. Freaks and Geeks: Another
cult favorite among many, Freaks
and Geeks follows a group of high
school students in the 1980s asthey deal with relationships, drugs
and trying to fit in. What makes
this show stick out more than any-
thing is the writing and the cast.Written and created by the now
famous Judd Appatow, Freaks and
Geeks has a star-studded cast that
includes James Franco, Seth Rogen,Jason Segel, and even Shiah Lebouf.
Although it only lasted for one sea-
son, it did launch the careers of
some of todays biggest stars andremains a fan favorite.
3. Firefly: The final show that
deserves mention is Firefly, anoth-
er short-lived cult hit. As a show, itstands out because of what it did
for the careers of those involved in
the project. Directed and created by
the ever-popular Joss Whedon, whowent on to direct The Avengers, it
follows the adventures of the crew
of the spaceship Serenity almost
500 years in the future. This show
was only on for 14 episodes andstarred Nathan Fillion, but spawned
a great film that goes right along
with it, aptly titled, Serenity.So there you go. Three great tele-
vision shows on Netflix that deserve
a watch or a re-watch, especially
if you enjoy familial dysfunction,teenage angst, and spaceships. It just
goes to show that there are great,
smart shows still out there to sink
your teeth into.

Sum 41 has been pushing
musical limitations since 1996.
Tonight, students have the chanceto witness this firsthand at The
Granada, where the punk rock
group will perform.
The tour is a celebration of thealbums 10th anniversary. The set
list will honor all of their biggest
hits and fan favorites.
Brianna Brown, a freshmanfrom Leawood, is a longtime fan
of the group.
Its pretty exciting that a band
from a while back is on tour
again and has found its way toLawrence, said Brown. Other
students share in the nostalgia
that the bands biggest hits such
as, In Too Deep, Fat Lip, andWith Me, bring to them.
The group hails from Ontario,
and consists of frontman Deryck
Whibley (vocals/guitar), ConeMcCaslin (bass), Steve Jocz
(drums) and Tom Thacker (gui-
tar). While these four have cer-
tainly experienced a lot togetherover the years such as sell-
ing more than 12 million albums
and touring the globe numerous
times other career highlightsinclude collaborations with Iggy
Pop, Ludacris, Tommy Lee, Rob
Halford and Tenacious D.
Aside from these accomplish-ments, Whibley spoke of the
importance of touring on thebands official site bio saying, All
weve ever tried to do is playbetter live. Its what makes us a
band. He went on to say after 12
years of touring, we have contin-
ued to improve.
Sum 41 is known for puttingon incredible live shows that draw
from their metal and punk rock
influences, but the band has also
acquired a reputation for havinghigh-energy and wild attitudes
off stage as well. The members
each support this reputation.
Were best friends, we love toplay music. And we also happen
to be idiots. This hasnt changed
since high school, Jocz said on
the bands website.The show starts at 8 p.m and is
open to all ages. Tickets are $22.

After four months of ram-
pant speculation and cor-porate Jedi mind tricks,
Disneys search for the new Star
Wars filmmaker ended with achoice that seemed both surpris-
ing and curiously inevitable. J.J.
Abrams, the MacGuffin-loving
creative force behind Super 8 andthe small-screen sci-fi hits Lost
and Fringe, has officially been
entrusted with returning audiences
to a galaxy far, far away by 2015.In retrospect, the identity of
the Chosen One should have been
obvious. After all, Abrams, who
directed 2009s Star Trek and itsforthcoming sequel Star Trek: Into
Darkness for Paramount, has a
proven track record when it comes
to resuscitating dormant fran-chises. Even hardcore Trekkies will
admit that the series had fallen onhard times, having reached an all-
time creative nadir with the releaseof the poorly received Star Trek:
Nemesis in 2002, the same year
Star Wars fans were being treated
to a teenaged Anakin Skywalkersprofound dissertation on the
coarseness of sand in Attack of
the Clones.
Abrams changed all that. HisTrek reboot, the most commer-
cially and critically lauded film in
the franchises history, re-fashionedthe originals utopian vision of a
future distinguished by exploration
and interstellar cooperation into a
rollicking, action-heavy space operawhose plot owed more allegiance toJoseph Campbell and George Lucasthan Gene Roddenberry. Honestly,Abrams Star Trek often felt morelike Star Wars than any of Lucassterile, goofy prequels (with theexception of Revenge of the Sith,whose merits I will always happilydefend).
The similarities dont end withstory structure. In Abrams version,Captain Kirk (Chris Pine) is rein-troduced as a Luke Skywalker-HanSolo hybrid, a cocksure scoundrelpressured to join Starfleet as a wayof measuring up to the legend ofan absent father. Zachary Quintosseething, guilt-ridden Spock, trau-matized by the Alderaan-styledestruction of his homeworldVulcan, is light-years away fromLeonard Nimoys serene, man-nered logician, who appears for anObi-Wan-esque extended cameothanks to a space-time continuityfluke brought on by the vengefulRomulan Nero (Eric Bana). Theresalso a greater emphasis on the pli-
able nature of fate: You are fully
capable of deciding your own des-
tiny, Spocks father tells him. Thequestion you face is: which path
will you choose? Sound familiar,this does?
For Abrams, an avowed Star
Wars fanboy since childhood
(even his earliest films are litteredwith TIE Fighter models and refer-
ences galore), the temptation to
blend mythologies was probably
too much to resist. Star Trek: IntoDarkness, scheduled for release
this May, looks to continue the
comparisons by channeling The
Empire Strikes Back and its legacyof dark revelations, deeper charac-
terizations and higher emotional
stakes. Want proof? Look no fur-
ther than the newest trailer, whereBenedict Cumberbatchs mysteri-
ous villain John Harrison unleash-
es a Sith-worthy swathe of destruc-tion on Starfleet Headquartersbefore cryptically referring to the
Enterprise crew as his family.
So the question remains: what
can we expect from a Star Warsdirected by J.J. Abrams? Many fans
have expressed their fear that the
new film, still tentatively titled
Episode VII, will look and soundtoo much like the recent Trek
movies, effectively blurring the
lines of demarcation between the
two most contentious camps in allof pop culture.
As for me, I just hope the new
movie manages to produce a
sequence as intense and grandly
moving as the opening scene of
Abrams first Star Trek, whereKirks father George (a pre-Thor
Chris Hemsworth) heroically
sacrifices himself in battle while
allowing his wife to give birth tothe future Captain. With acclaimed
screenwriter Michael Arndt (LittleMiss Sunshine, Toy Story 3) pen-
ning the Episode VII script, such
poignancy seems very likely. Could
a similar end be lying in wait for anaging Han Solo?
For some, though, the choice to
identify as a Star Trek or Star
Wars fan is comparable to choos-ing between the Beatles and the
Rolling Stones; your answer speaks
volumes about who you are as a per-
son. Taken from this perspective,Abrams decision to leave Trek
for its rival franchise is exciting but
also inherently reckless; a develop-
ment guaranteed to court chaosand rouse the slumbering ire of the
geek gods, Cabin in the Woods
style. Dont be surprised if we soon
hear tell of an Ewok born with thepointed ears of a Vulcan.

push backs, A$AP Rocky finally
delivers his first piece of full
-length album material.
One of the biggest draws to
Live.Love.A$AP was the great
production throughout the
album. For the most part, Long.
Live.A$AP doesnt disappoint
when it comes to production.
A$AP Rocky has quite the ear
for beats, and it shows on this
album.
Rocky connects with longtime
collaborator Clams Casino on a
couple of tracks. He also hooks
up with new producers as well
as producing a few tracks him-
self. The only major flaw in pro-
duction is the track Wild for
the Night produced by Skrillex.
In the track, Skrillex brings his
signature dubstep sound while
Rocky sounds incredibly awk-
ward rhyming over the beat.
A$AP Rocky sticks with his
signature style of a mixture of
southern rap and traditional
New York rap, but he improves
on it in nearly every way. A$AP
Rocky isnt known as the most
impressive lyricist out there, but
he impresses on several tracks
on the album, such Phoenix,
Suddenly and the title track,
Long.Live.A$AP.
Long.Live.A$AP also con-
tains some pretty impressive fea-
tures. A$AP Rocky works with
a wide range of artists on the
album, including frequent collab-
orator Schoolboy Q. A$AP Rocky
and Schoolboy have great chem-istry and it shows on PMW.
The album also has a fantastic
star-studded track which features
several artists including Kendrick
Lamar, Yelawolf and Danny
Brown.
Long.Live.A$AP is a great
album, with A$AP Rocky capital-
izing on the potential and promise
he showed in his first mixtape.

Track team
dominates atfnal indoormeet
For a team that might be No.
1 in the country Monday,the Kansas Jayhawks didnt
look the part ater Saturdays win
against Oklahoma.
Senior center Je Withey pon-dered his impressive perormance
with his chin resting on his hand.
Freshman guard Ben
McLemore had the same lookhe always has on his young ace,
occasionally cracking his now sig-
nature smile.
Then there was senior guardElijah Johnson.
From the tone o his voice andhis body language, he seemed dis-
couraged ater his our turnovers.In the irst hal o the game,
both Johnson and sophomore
guard Naadir Tharpe seemed to
have diiculty bringing the ball upthe court.
Oklahomas pressure was
nothing new, but the guards still
couldnt handle it.Kansas has obvious problems
that need taken care o oensively,
but the team still showed some
crucial tenants o deense that willhelp keep them alive the rest o
the season.
Kansas held Oklahoma to its
lowest scoring hal o the seasonwith 21 points.
The Jayhawks held the Soonersto 35.6 percent shooting or the
game.And the most important point
or the Kansas deense is that it
has Je Withey. Nobody else in
the country has Je Withey.Hes a unique player in not
only our league, but (all o) college
basketball in terms o the act that
you dont play against those typeso players that oten, Oklahoma
coach Lon Kruger said. He erases
any mistakes on the perimeter,plus he guards his own guy inside.
Heres that last line again: He
erases any mistakes on the perim-
eter, plus he guards his own guyinside.
Thats not a quality many big
men in college basketball have in
their arsenal.Witheys a distinctive, athletic
talent that will help guide Kansas
through its diicult lows.
So now this team is gettingused to the idea o being No. 1
while going into uncharted ter-
ritories.
The Jayhawks move on to theirnext opponent in Morgantown,
W.Va.
Its a place the Kansas basket-
ball team has not yet played.However, an adversary Coach
Sel is amiliar with in West
Virginia coach Bob Huggins.
The Huggy Bears squad willcome out playing ast and desper-
ately; it needs a win to even think
about the NIT.
The Mountaineers know one othe ways they can do that is pull
o a big upset against one o the
top teams in the country.
Itll be a very physical game,probably one o the more physical
games that well play this year,
Sel said on Saturday.
But at the moment, theres aconsensus among the Kansas play-
ers and coach. They dont care
about being No. 1 in late January.
Sel takes it a step urther whenasked about being the No. 1 team.
No. Nor are we deserving.
You know somebodys got to be it
though. Edited by Tara Bryant
Kansas has now played seven
games o its 18-game Big 12
regular season schedule. Everygame is just as important as the
last, or next, to the standings.
But the 65-52 loss that Kansas
suered to No. 12 OklahomaState at Allen Fieldhouse on
Saturday night seemed to have
an extra sense o importance or
the Jayhawks going in. The twoteams entered the matchup tied
in the Big 12
standings.
For BonnieH en r icks on ,
the 14-point
loss that her
team sueredon the road
to Oklahoma
State on Jan. 8
was the mostdisappointing
o the season, she said the day
beore her team dropped another
game to the Cowgirls, this timeby 13 in a loss that was perhaps
even more rustrating.
Kansas coaches had a plan on
how to stop the high-poweredOSU oense, and the players
executed or the most part. The
problem was the 12 oensive
rebounds the Jayhawks allowed
ater OSU misses.We knew their sets, senior
point guard Angel Goodrichsaid. And we stopped their sets,
but it was just them getting thesecond chance shots, the third
chance shots. They were getting
multiple possessions.On oense, Kansas struggled
to get its post players shots
against the 2-3 zone deense o
Oklahoma State. Kansas hadewer shot opportunities because
o its rebounding disadvantage,
but also wasted more posses-
sions with turnovers.Basketball is a game o pos-
sessions, Henrickson said ater
her team committed 18 turn-
overs against the zone deense.Some o those were orced, but
most o them were unorced.
This sea-
son was sup-posed to be a
special one or
the womensb a s k e t b a l lprogram at
Kansas. The
J a y h a w k s
returned allbut one player
rom the team that reached the
Sweet 16 o the NCAA tourna-
ment last season, and CarolynDavis was returning rom a torn
ACL.
Bonnie Henrickson inally
reached an NCAA tournamentlast season. The Jayhawks began
the season with a mix o young
talent, senior leadership and
tournament experience.With that in mind, this team
was just not supposed to go on
losing stretches o 1-4 in the Big
12 this season.Kansas has played passively
and without toughness at times
in losing our o its last ive
games. Now the Jayhawks risk
watching their chances at mak-
ing a repeat run in the NCAAtournament ade away i they
cant get back on track against
Iowa State and Kansas State in
the next week.Ater that, Kansas travels to
Baylor, where a victory is as close
to impossible as they get.
The disappointment was audi-ble through the voice o Angel
Goodrich as she spoke to the
media ater the loss to Oklahoma
State.I just think we werent as
aggressive as they were, Angel
Goodrich said. We were pas-
sive.
Passive?That is why this loss, in
January against a .500 Big 12
team, was so disappointing.One loss over the course o
an 18-game Big 12 schedule is
not the disappointment; its that
a team with such high expecta-tions and abilities could not play
aggressively in one o its biggest
games o the regular season.
Kansas drops its record to 12-6on the season and 3-4 in the Big
12 in a game that unraveled a tie
in the standings, but has only let
more tangled questions aboutthe recent losing stride or the
Jayhawks.

Its Kansas rst ever game
against West Virginia at 8 p.m.
tonight in Morgantown consist-
ing o a team thats struggling a
new conerence.
However, its still not a team
that the Jayhawks will take
lightly, despite the Mountaineers
record o 9-10 and 2-4 in Big 12
play.
We know that theyre a tough
team, senior guard Travis Rel-
eord said. We know that they
play hard and going up there is
always hard on the road. Itll be
a un game we just go to came
ready to play.
Aer making ve straight
NCAA tournament appearances,
West Virginia head coach BobHuggins has struggled to nd
oensive consistency, but that
doesnt mean his team wont put
out a maximum eort.
Huggins is also 0-4 all-time
against Kansas in more than 30
years o coaching.
Itll be a very physical game,
probably one o the more physi-
cal games well play this year,
Kansas coach Bill Sel said. Well
have to play a little bit tougher
than we did [Saturday].
Sel also described West Vir-
ginia as a team that will play ast
and drive the ball to the basket.
He also said the Jayhawks need
to be able to move the ball intransition.
For the Kansas players, they
know despite the difculties o
West Virginia, going into WVU
Coliseum will be a new oppor-
tunity.
We know that theyre a tough
team, Releord said. We know
that they play hard and going up
there is always hard on the road.
Itll be a un game we just go to
came ready to play.
Releord has played many Big
Monday games, but hes never
traveled this ar o a distance in
conerence play.
I dont think it will eel like a
Big 12 game because its the rst
time weve been there, Releord
said. O course its going to eela little dierent, but weve just
got to be ready no matter where
its at or how quick the turn-
around.
Most Jayhawks ans are con-
cerned with the team's struggling
oense. Shooting 43.6 percent
against Oklahoma, including
some rough point guard play in
the rst hal, the Jayhawks must
rely on being one o the best de-
ensive teams in the country.
Our team has got to be a g reat
deensive team to win games,
Releord said. It creates easy
baskets or us on the oensive
end. We knew coming into this
season we were going to havetime where we struggled to score
and i we get the other team to
do the same thing. We rely a lot
on our deense.
One player who continues to
struggle is senior guard Elijah
Johnson, who is still searching
or his stroke this season. He did
hit two o his six three-pointers
against Oklahoma.
Were supporting him and
coach is keep telling him to keep
shooting, Releord said. He
hasnt done anything dierent or
changed anything.
With all these concerns about
oense and the difculty o trav-
eling to a new road destination,
being ranked at the top o the
polls is arthest rom the team'smind going into tonight's game.
"Being No. 1 right now, this
early in the season, does not
matter, Releord said. We're
just ocused onto the next game.
We're not really worried about
who's going to be No. 1 Monday.
We're just trying to get better as
a team."

Two classic franchises struggle to maintain success
O
ne o the hardest things to do in
lie is to be successul. Whats
even more diicult is to main-
tain the success that everyone expectsyou to have. As we near the halway
mark o the NBA season, it seems like the
traditional superpowers o the league are
no longer powerul. he recent struggleso the Boston Celtics and season-long
obstacles the Los Angeles Lakers are try-
ing to overcome put these two historically
successul ranchises in a position thatmany o us do not usually see.
ime is not on the Celtics side; the
roster is aging. he team must igure out
a way to get back to the winning tradi-tion it is used to seeing beore it is too
late. he NBA trade deadline is Feb. 21,
and that may be the only option or them.
However, they have no one on their ros-
ter they can trade.Paul Pierce is likely going to retire as
a Celtic and Kevin Garnett is really the
only signiicant big man on the team, so
they cannot be traded. he only personthe Celtics could realistically trade is
Rajon Rondo, but he is one o the best
point guards in the league, provides the
youth this team needs and just tore his
ACL on Friday.
As ar as the L akers are concerned,
they are certainly not looking any better
than the Celtics. Looking at their rosteron paper, one would think they have the
best team in the league. Sadly though,
the game is played on the hardwood andnot on paper. Enter ing Sundays game
with a dismal record o 18-25, the Lakers
have played the entire season without
excitement. Its a team that looks like itdoesnt want to win.
o say the Lakers are having a disap-
pointing season would be an understate-
ment, as talks about trading Pau Gasolare circulating again. he problem with
that is i Dwight Howard decides to leave
ater this season, then they will be short
on big men. So, do you trade Howardso he doesnt leave the team or ree? But
how could you trade someone that could
potentially be handed the torch rom
Kobe Bryant?
here are many questions surroundingboth ranchises as the second hal o the
season is approaching, but there arent
enough answers. he unortunate thing
about the situation both teams ace isthis: All dynasties come to an end.

Celtics overcome Rondo injury to beat Heat in overtimeAssociATed Press
BOSON Paul Pierce hit ago-ahead jumper with 31 seconds
le and the Boston Celtics beat
the Miami Heat 100-98 in double
overtime Sunday aer learning
that All-Star point guard RajonRondo will miss the rest o the
season with a knee injury.
Rondo will have surgery or atorn anterior cruciate ligament in
his right knee. He was hurt late in
Bostons 123-111 loss, also in two
overtimes, to the Atlanta Hawks
on Friday night.
Tis game was the rst in Bos-
ton or Ray Allen since he lethe Celtics aer ve seasons and
signed as a ree agent with Miami.
He scored 21 points.
Kevin Garnett had 24 points
and 11 rebounds, and Pierce add-ed 17 points, 13 rebounds and 10
assists or the Celtics, who endeda six-game losing streak, their lon-
gest in six seasons. LeBron James
had 34 points or the Heat, whose
winning streak stopped at our.Pierces basket gave the Celtics
a 99-98 lead. James had a chance
to put the Heat ahead but missed a12-oot jumper with 6.8 seconds to
go rom the le with deender Jef
Green jumping out at him. Pierce
got the rebound and was ouled byShane Battier.
He sank the rst shot. Ten, as aan shouted Tis ones or Rondo,
he missed the second.Miami had one last chance, but
Battier missed a long jumper at the
buzzer.
Te Heat also could have wonin the rst overtime, but Dwyane
Wade, who had 17 points, also
missed a long jumper as the buzzersounded. Tey had led 93-89 aer
consecutive baskets by James, but
Garnett hit a layup with 1:45 re-maining and a shot rom the right
baseline with 1:14 to go.
Boston could have avoided therst overtime when Pierce in-bounded rom behind his back-
board with two seconds le to
Jason erry. But errys shot rom
the top o the key was short. TeHeat had tied it on a 3-pointer
by James with seven seconds re-
maining in regulation aer Allenmissed a 3-pointer rom the le
corner with 15 seconds to go.
Boston coach Doc Rivers did
not mention Rondos injury in hismeeting with reporters about an
hour beore the game, but Court-
ney Lee started in his place. Doc-tors decided to keep Rondo out othe game aer he went through his
normal pregame routine, the Celt-
ics said.
Allen was part o the Big Treewith Pierce and Garnett starting in
2007-08. In their rst season to-
gether, Boston won its 17th NBA
championship. He played against
the Celtics once beore this sea-
son, a 120-107 Heat win in Miamiin the opener.
Te crowd gave Allen a stand-
ing ovation when highlights o his
career with the Celtics were shownon the video board above center
court during a timeout with 5:33
le in the rst quarter. At the Mi-
ami bench, he raised his le handin recognition.
