Planned Parenthood and the Cen-
ter for Reproductive Rights have
fled separate lawsuits against a 47-
page anti-abortion bill signed by
Gov. Sam Brownback in April.
House Bill 2253 is scheduled to
take efect today. Te bill bans sex-
selection abortions, rescinds tax
incentives for abortion providers
and women who receive abortions,
prohibits employees and volunteers
of abortion providers from sharing
information about sexuality in pub-
lic schools and states that human
life begins at fertilization.
While Planned Parenthood has
fled a federal lawsuit against three
specifc components of the bill, the
Center for Reproductive Rights has
fled a state lawsuit against the bill in
its entirety. Te bill requires doctors
to disclose controversial informa-
tion about the medical risks associ-
ated with the procedure includ-
ing the link between abortion and
breast cancer, which the American
Cancer Society disputes. Clinics also
have to provide Printed materials
that inform the pregnant woman of
the probable anatomical and physi-
ological characteristics of the un-
born child at two week gestational
increments from fertilization to full
term. Tese materials are to include
information about the fetuss capac-
ity to feel pain by the 20th week of
development. Planned Parenthood
only performs abortions before 21.6
weeks and rarely does so before the
20th week.
Elise Higgins, the manager of gov-
ernment afairs at Planned Parent-
hood of Kansas and Mid-Missouri,
expressed her organizations con-
cern with the 20th week threshold
in the states literature.
Its irrelevant to our patients,
and most credible medical au-
thorities will tell you that the lan-
guage is misleading, she said.
Kathy Ostrowski, the legislative
director of Kansans for Life, the
largest pro-life organization in
Kansas, said the information about
fetal development and pain is un-
welcome yet factual.
Its a truthful consideration, she
said. Everybody knows these ba-
bies feel excruciating pain, its just
that the abortion clinics dont want
people to hear about it.
House Bill 2253 also includes a
provision requiring doctors to in-
form women that abortion termi-
nates the life of a whole, separate,
unique, living being a provision
Planned Parenthood alleges is a vio-
lation of free speech because some
doctors do not share that view.
We dont think government of-
fcials should be able to force us to
publicly endorse their views about
abortion, Higgins said.
Doctors are permitted to voice
their opinions about the matter,
even if they directly contradict the
above claim. Ostrowski said this ca-
veat renders Planned Parenthoods
case about free speech meritless.
A doctor could have posters on
the walls that read, Disregard ev-
erything the state has told you, she
said, But you have to say exactly
what youre going to do when you
do a procedure.
Higgins argues that the require-
ment to call the fetus a whole,
separate, unique, living being is
coercive.
As long as were being com-
pelled by the government to make
that ideological statement, then
thats a violation of free speech,
she said.
Planned Parenthood has also
taken issue with a section of the
bill that requires the websites of
abortion providers to display a
link to and endorsement of the
Kansas Department of Health and
Environment right-to-know in-
formation site. Higgins said this is
more coerced speech.
Its not just the hyperlink, its the
endorsement, she said. Were re-
quired to say that its scientifcally
accurate, unbiased and non judge-
mental information all three of
which are false. Te information is
designed to coerce and shame wom-
en who are seeking abortions.
Ostrowski said the information is
accurate and that women deserve
access to it.
Tey say theyre pro-choice, but
they want to deny women informa-
tion, she said. How can a woman
be harmed by more information?

City sponsors race
through downtown
the Mass street Mile race took
runners on a course through downtown
Lawrence yesterday. the race began
at weavers Deparment store on ninth
and Massachusetts streets. there were
three heats: the mens and womens
competitive races and the recreational
mile. the mile-long race course was
fat and went down Massachusetts
street, new Hampshire street, Vermont
street and made a loop back to the
starting line in front of weavers.
its a nice distance to go, and its
open to everyone, said Gosilverback
employee Kelsey Vorgert.
the race was sponsored by
VanGo, inc., the city of Lawrence and
Gosilverback. while the races were
not competitive, participants who
placed frst received a piece of artwork
from children in VanGos after school
programs.
the fat race course was considered
a plus to many of the participants,
including crystal effer, who is visiting
the University this summer.
the race went very well, she said.
it was a great distance for me, and
there was a good number of hills.
participant Jeremy Hammer said
that he was dared to do the race after
having already participated in the
Double road race earlier on sunday.
it was fun and crazy, he said after
fnishing.

W
ithout cofee, my day
is like trench warfare.
Blaring sounds, blinding
light, and mud everywhere. Ive
sold my soul to the cofee plant like
so many others and now my days
are sitting somewhere between
a quiet afernoon in Nam and a
playground wrestling match.
If youre anyone looking to do
anything, youve probably sat down
for a cup of cofee frst. Without
thinking, youre flling up the
reservoir with a half-gallon of pale
brown water, punching the brew
button, and slamming back a mug
of raw fuel.
Its impossible, at least for me, to
not feel like a motivational speaker
afer that frst cup. Im snapping
my fngers, clicking my heels, and
cheerily addressing people by their
full names. Te 8 a.m. hour is
where about 90 percent of my daily
productivity is focused. I wont
complain if Im the model Ameri-
can worker (if only for 60 minutes).
Tats when the mid-morning
famine happens. Some evil scientist
at Folgers defnitely met with an
even more sinister scientist at Pan-
era to add a bread-craving chemical
to every batch of cofee ever. Fight-
ing past that 11 a.m. urge to gobble
some pastries has probably saved
me a thousand dollars and my
freshman 15.
Lunch and the hour and a half fol-
lowing are the least exciting of my
day. I have enough cafeine-laced
energy to function but not enough
to really excel. Its the nadir of an
otherwise entertaining struggle to
get stuf done. But then comes the
lowest of lows. Te blasphemous
Five-Hour-Energy popularized the
concept of that 2:30 p.m. feeling
and at the same time underplayed
it. Its even worse in the sum-
mertime, when walking around
soaks you in sweat and leaves you
gasping. In my more excited states I
convince myself Im dying of cofee
withdrawal.
With a meth-heads raven-
ous hunger, Im on the lookout
for a Starbucks or a half-empty
cup that somebody forgot at the
Underground. Im digging through
trashcans in break rooms to suck
on used flters. I am so high-strung
you could pluck me for a high E.
Its there around 4 p.m. when I
fnally just resign myself to being
trapped in that haze of sluggishness
with no chance of escape until I hit
the sheets. I normally chalk it up to
a hard days work, but if Im really
honest with myself, its just the side
efects of a poorly managed addic-
tion. Id be terrible with heroine, I
swear.
Despite my daily epic struggle
with this bean, its hard not to rely
on it. If I werent so manic and
completely stuck in my head all the
time, itd probably be good for me.
Te only real drawback to cofee
is dependence, and its benefts are
what carried America through
most of the 20th century. Between
the Great Depression, Great War,
and the 80s, I dont know where
wed be without it.
So on most days, I forego any
sense of caution with my cofee and
just go nuts. It hasnt failed me yet,
and spending almost a third of my
day in the bathroom means Im
playing a lot of games on my phone.
Who cares about that though? Cof-
fee up, America!

here was a pronounced
atmosphere of euphoria on
June 26 when the Supreme
Court ruled that section three
of the Defense of Marriage Act
(DOMA) was unconstitutional.
While the justices themselves were
responsible for the rendering of the
decision, it wouldnt be possible to
have achieved such a milestone in
LGBT rights without the undying
support of its allies. Indeed, what
people must know is that personal
beliefs, on the micro level, can have
major implications for the rest of
the nation. To achieve the next step
in expanding LGBT rights, some
widely held attitudes about homo-
sexuality must change namely,
gender norms. Tese anachronistic
social constructs charge men with
fulflling masculine roles in society,
and women with fulflling feminine
roles.
In relation to the plight of the
LBGT, gender norms ofen manifest
themselves in labels such as too
gay, which suggests a gay person
has moved out of their acceptable,
gender assigned role. People who
say this about others are obviously
making assumptions rooted in
stringent gender binaries, which
suggest that men should behave
like men and women should behave
like women. Tose who adhere to
this paradigm can only be partial
supporters of the LGBT at best.
Because they believe being gay is
okay, so long as the gay person
in question does not cross their
arbitrarily constructed concepts of
masculinity and femininity. Whats
more, gay people themselves face a
stigma in their own communities
from this construct. Popular gay
dating apps are riddled with state-
ments like no fems. With just two
words, their entire personality has
been discounted.
Te statement, too gay, itself,
is a fallacy. Homosexuality exists
on a continuum and adheres to
no socially constructed bound-
ary. Studies have shown that many
people fall into a grey area of
sexuality, which makes these labels
even more arbitrary and harmful.
No human can be too much of who
the are, and this label only serves to
make them ashamed of it. When it
comes to being gay, the limit does
not exist.
Labels like these fracture group
cohesion by otherizing the LGBT
community internally and ex-
ternally and keep them at a safe
distance from their heterosexual
counterparts. In order to move into
equality, the LGBT community,
in its multiplicity, must be fully
embraced. Tat entails eliminat-
ing all conceptions of what roles
and behaviors men and women
should adopt in society. Legislative
victories will be hallow if the LGBT
still feel excluded because they play
a role society fnds unft for them.
Ten years ago, in 2003, the Su-
preme Court found in Lawrence v.
Texas that criminalizing consensual
homosexual sex acts was unconsti-
tutional. Now, in 2013, our nation
has taken the next greatest step. Te
societal gains made have been in
no way infnitesimal or negligible.
Our nation has gone from viewing
homosexuality as a criminal ofense
to a normal display of human afec-
tion in a mere decade, but theres
more to be done. Heteronormative
beliefs are from a bygone era, and
so too they must go. If we embrace
all kinds of people for who they are,
maybe at the end of our lives, we
will be able to say we got to see the
world change.

Avoid confusing, disturbing, silly, sucky television shows
By Kaitlyn Hilgers
khilgers@kansan.com
Whether it is a murder mystery, your
latest addiction, or a silly sitcom, be-
tween cable and Netfix, there is some-
thing for everyone to watch on televi-
sion. However, there are the shows that
really shouldnt be for anybody. Tese
shows are shows that should be avoided
at all costs. Tey arent all that bad; they
just suck you in, causing you to lose a
full day. Sometimes, they actually do
suck.
Anything on BrAvo
Dont get me wrong, I am the frst
one to switch to Bravo during my
channel surfng, and more ofen than
not, there is something that attracts my
interests. Americas Next Top Model
Marathon? Real Housewives? Top
Chef? Yes, please. I will sit down with
my morning cup of cofee promising
myself one episode, but time fies when
you are watching stupid people argue,
I guess, because all of a sudden it is the
evening and I have successfully wasted
a full day in front of the television. So
if you are hoping to be productive, it
would be wise to avoid Bravo.
girl Code
Tis show just disturbs me on all
levels. Not only is it shallow and stereo-
typical, but it makes it seem as though
all women are like those on the show
and even look up to them. Every time
I watch this show, I am appalled that
women and men, for that matter
are showing support for a show that
literally tells me I should wear makeup
every day to look acceptable. I dont like
anyone telling me what to do or how
to do something, and I especially dont
like it from women who seem to think
they know everything. Shows should
learn to build women up, not tear them
down or tell them which kind of sport
fan they should be in order to impress
the men around them. I will watch
baseball all day, root for my Padres just
as loud as anyone else in the room and
not wear makeup all at the same time,
thank you very much. Ultimately, this
show is trash, and not even the good
kind of trash, the stinky kind.
hemloCk grove
I really dont know what it is about
this Netfix original that makes it so
unwatchable. When I read the descrip-
tion, I thought it would be scary, inter-
esting and downright good. Instead, its
a confusing, weird and just stupid show.
I have tried three times now to get into
it, and every time, I come out loathing
it even more for taking precious time
out of my day.
In the end, these are just my opin-
ions. For all I know, Girl Code could
be your next obsession or you could
think that Hemlock Grove is a televi-
sion masterpiece. But I have a hard
time believing that could happen, and
so with that, I recommend you spend
your time watching other shows. Like,
pretty much any other show. Seriously.

Lawrence is deep in summer, with
humidity and rising temperatures
inevitable.
Staying cool and hydrated is
essential to a healthy July and
August. Pavika Saripalli, a physician
at Watkins Health Center, busted
some of the most common myths
associated with food and drinks
during the warmer weather.
Myth: A cold beer will cool you
down.
Fact: Alcohol dilates the blood
vessels. You may feel like youre
more able to get heat out
of the body, but this has
not been proven, Saripalli
said. I never want to advocate more
than two drinks in 24 hours. Your
liver cannot process more than fve
servings of alcohol. It may make
you feel cooler, but it wont actually
make you cooler.
Myth: Spicy foods cool you down.
Fact: Tere are no foods that can
actually raise or lower your body
temperature, Saripalli said.
What you should be eating or
drinking:
Dehydration will promote heat
retention, so you should be drinking
a lot of water, Saripalli said. You
can feel cooler by eating certain
foods like fruits and vegetables,
especially ones that contain a lot of
water like grapes, melons, lettuce,
cabbage and celery.
What to avoid:
Avoid cafene; it promotes a sense
of warmth. Take the least amount
of decongestants and ADD/ADHD
medicine as possible; they make you
feel hotter, Saripalli said. Dont
eat any more carbohydrates than
what is necessary because carbs get
converted to heat quickly.
So, before you reach for the beer
or hot sauce to cool yourself down,
remember that water is your best
bet, whether in a glass or in your
fruit.

Students and University alumni
showed of their creativity dur-
ing the Maker Faire Kansas City at
Union Station this weekend.
Te Maker Faire is an opportunity
for any creator to show of their new
idea, product, craf or food.
Te event is a celebration of inven-
tion and innovation that brings
makers together and promote a
sense of community.
Te School of Journalism show-
cased its digital content production
and discussed how it can be incor-
porated into social media.
Attendees of the event practiced
combining music and graphics.

Lawrence
Rochelle Schleicher, from Kansas
City, crossed the fnish of the 2013
Tour of Lawrence at the intersec-
tion of Jayhawk Boulevard and Sun-
fower Road afer 33 minutes and 40
seconds of cycling the challenging
course around Lawrence and the
University campus.
She was the winner of the womens
Masters Category Four race, but the
difculty of climbing the hills of
Lawrence on her bicycle had lef lit-
tle energy for a celebration. However,
Schleicher still managed to enjoy the
ride.
Its a climbers course, Schleicher
said, referring to the many hills that
riders had to overcome to reach the
fnish. So, either you like to climb or
you dont. I loved it.
Te annual event was on Satur-
day and Sunday. Te Meadowbrook
Apartments KU Campus Circuit
Race were on Saturday.
Bob Sanner has organized the event
since it began fve years ago. He be-
came interested in hosting a cycling
race in Lawrence afer watching the
collegiate nationals here nine years
ago.
When he began organizing the
event Sanner couldnt think of any
better place for a cycling course in
the area than the hills of campus.
Im grateful that the University
administration allows us to do this,
Sanner said as he stood near the
start/fnish line of the race. I dont
know if theres any other event where
they shut the campus down for an
entire day.
Members of the KU Cycling Club
team enjoyed competing on their
own campus, and used their famil-
iarity with the course to their advan-
tage.
Adam Trunnell, a junior from Lib-
erty, Mo., said he had been preparing
for the race all year by biking up the
hill to class.
He said that despite controversy the
sport of cycling has recently faced in
the media, there are a lot of people
who still love the sport, and Law-
rence is a perfect example.
Lawrence is a nice pocket of a lot
of really good cycling, Trunnell said.
I think these races are great for the
community, the riders, and the Uni-
versity.

Last year, Kelcee Sachtleben and
her boyfriend took their 4th of July
celebration to a new level. Tey
spent the day at Clinton Lake sip-
ping summer brew and cruising the
water on a pontoon boat. At night,
they ate barbecue and lay under a
30-minute frework show right in
downtown Lawrence.
Lawrence doesnt have sun-kissed
beaches or a wild party scene, but it
does ofer a range of amusing events
to make this Independence day one
to remember.
I didnt have the money to go to
the Ozarks or a big festival, Sachtle-
ben said. So, I just tried to relax
and make the best of it in Lawrence,
which ended up being a blast.
If Sachtlebens story sounds ap-
pealing, the full service marina at
Clinton Lake is ofering pontoon
boat rentals, varying in size and
price, from nine a.m. until fve p.m.
on July 4. Te sandy shores also pro-
vide for a great fshing experience
and the 400 campsites are ideal for a
day-long picnic or cookout.
No summer celebration is com-
plete with out one of Kansas Citys
most well-known foods, barbeque.
Dillons is ofering their week-long
Rib fest event from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m.
Right outside the entrance will be
ready-to-eat Hardwood Smoked
Baby Back ribs available for only
$10.99 a slab.
Seth Nauman, assistant manager at
Dillons, said the ribs will add some
zest to peoples Fourth of July eating.
Were cooking them on a charcoal
grill daily, Nauman said. Tere
will also be samples for anyone
whos interested. Its defnitely worth
checking out because ribs make for a
great Fourth of July dinner.
Make Independence Day the ulti-
mate date night. Afer dinner, grab
a bottle of wine and a blanket, and
head down to Seventh and Kentucky
streets for the annual freworks show
in Lawrence. Te display starts at
9:45 p.m. and should last about 30
minutes.
Everyone should celebrate,
Sachtleben said. Even if you have to
work in the morning or go to class,
Fourth of July only comes once a
year. America didnt fght Great
Britain for nothing.

P
aul Feigs cheerfully profane
lady cop comedy Te Heat
is the latest example of why
its never a good idea to judge a flm
by its trailer.
One of two disconcertingly similar
Melissa McCarthy vehicles initially
set to debut in early 2013, the frst
trailer for Te Heat undersold
Feigs eagerly awaited follow-up
to Bridesmaids as a middling
mlange of odd couple slapstick and
police procedural clichs. McCa-
rthys other project, Identity Tief,
conversely attracted viewers with
ads promising a rollicking road
comedy in the tradition of Planes,
Trains and Automobiles.
Yet quality or lack thereof is
seldom the determinant factor of a
flms success. Even though Identity
Tief ended up being, to quote my
own review, a lazy, obnoxious belch
of a movie that was greeted with
almost universal critical disdain
when it was released last February, it
still managed to turn a hefy proft at
the box ofce. In fact, its reception
may have played a part in convinc-
ing 20th Century Fox executives to
move Te Heat, whose advance
screenings had been generating con-
siderably more positive buzz, from
its original April 5 release date to the
butter-clogged heart of blockbuster
season.
Well, Foxs gamble is our gain,
because Te Heat is actually one
of the summers sturdier tent-poles:
a wickedly funny buddy cop spoof
that capitalizes on the unlikely
chemistry of its two leading ladies.
Like Bridesmaids, this is also
a movie that seems bound and
determined to prove that women
can be every bit as raucous and
raunchy as their male counter-
parts, subjecting McCarthy and
her co-star Sandra Bullock to all
manner of violent pratfalls, gross-
out sight gags and a near-constant
stream of genitalia references.
Hooray for progress!
Bullock, essentially reprising
her endearingly awkward Miss
Congeniality character, plays
Sarah Ashburn, a high-strung
FBI agent tasked with hunting
down an infamous South Boston
drug lord. While interrogating a
low-level dealer (YouTube celebrity
Spoken Reasons), Sarah runs afoul
of Ofcer Shannon Mullins (McCa-
rthy), a sailor-mouthed Boston-Irish
cop who proudly wears her badge
under several layers of biker denim
and conveniently reversible t-shirts.
Would it surprise you to learn these
two eventually become the ultimate
crime-fghting duo?
Lets be honest: the buddy cop
fick is one of screenwritings stalest
formulas. Recent examples like Cop
Out and Showtime lowered the
industrys already low standards for
rote, cynical storytelling. Te Heat
distinguishes itself not by breaking
the mold but by acknowledging the
set-ups inherent limitations, pep-
pering its familiar plot with savvy,
irreverent dialogue that knowingly
parodies the hyper-masculine ex-
cesses of flms like Lethal Weapon
and Bad Boys, particularly during
a scene where McCarthy goes on an
improvised tirade while searching
her captains ofce for his missing
testicles.
McCarthy, a talented actress
resigned to playing coarse, loud-
mouthed eccentrics, nevertheless
imbues the movie with an infectious
sense of fun and confdent charm,
especially whenever shes taking
Bullock to task for being too ar-
rogant or socially awkward. Bullock,
meanwhile, proves herself a worthy
foil, taking the brunt of her co-stars
insults while occasionally letting
loose with a few memorable barbs
of her own. A running gag involving
her one-sided friendship with her
neighbors cat is oddly inspired.
Te Heat also benefts from a
supporting cast of comedy notables,
including Michael McDonald
(MADtv) as a knife-wielding mob
assassin and Dan Bakkedahl as a mi-
sogynistic DEA agent who quickly
becomes McCarthys sworn enemy
(and the target of a seemingly inex-
haustible number of albino jokes).
In the end, though, the success of
Te Heat can be largely attributed
to McCarthy, a freewheeling comic
presence whose appeal transcends
typecasting.

On a sweltering summer day 38
years ago, an order for a double meat-
eaters deep dish pizza came up in the
kitchen window. Standing next to the
blistering heat rising from the oven,
Nancy OConnor then fresh out of
college had a moment of clarity.
I opened the oven door and went,
Wow, I wonder what it would be like
to walk away from this food, she
said.
Tousands of students are fnd-
ing themselves in OConnors shoes,
making the movement away from
meat. A 2008 study by Vegetarian
Times reported that of the 7.3 mil-
lion vegetarian Americans, 42 per-
cent are age 18 to 34.
At OConnors childhood home,
meat was the heart of the plate and
vegetables were an aferthought.
Even though when she lef for col-
lege a vegetarian lifestyle was almost
a sort of counterculture, she was em-
powered to explore outside the cui-
sine she grew up with.
It opened her eyes, and she never
looked back.
Now OConnor teaches classes
geared toward a vegetarian diet at
the Community Mercantile (the
Merc). However, participants arent
all tried-and-true vegetarians. More
ofen than not, theyre simply look-
ing for ways to improve, balance and
broaden their palates.
OConnor believes that for begin-
ners, eating vegetarian at least once
a week can have health and environ-
mental benefts. Her philosophy is
that meat can play a supporting role
on a plate.
If youre eating meat, it can be
more of an embellishment rather
than a star, she explained.
For around $5, her students walk
away with a new recipe and a food
freebie from a one-hour class like A
Crash Course in Tofu, or A Veggie
Picnic.
And the refrigerators and freezers
at the Merc are stocked with every-
thing from veggie burgers and tofu
hot dogs to vegetarian Indian entres
and pizzas.
Te Lawrence community is in-
credibly vegan- and vegetarian-
friendly, with local produce suppliers
like the Merc, Natural Grocers and
the Farmers Market. According to
VegGuide.org, there are 20 Lawrence
restaurants that ofer alternative,
vegetarian-friendly menu options.
In the 2013 Best of Lawrence awards,
Zen Zero took the gold for best veg-
etarian eatery.
Also included on the list are Ingre-
dient and Mad Greek, two of Lau-
ren Flemings favorite spots to chow
down on a vegetarian meal.
Fleming, a sophomore from Law-
rence, said she was challenged into
becoming a vegetarian when her sis-
ter decided to follow the lifestyle. It
was gradual frst she gave up red
meat and then made a full transition
afer high school.
It was a little awkward at family
lunches at her grandparents cattle
farm. However, Fleming said her
vegetarian diet has infuenced her
family to broaden what they put on
their plates, like trying stir-fry and
substituting fsh for steak.
It was an adjustment, but I think
its prompted them to become more
healthy, she said.
Flemings love of animals was a de-
ciding factor in her choice. Images of
slaughterhouses in a documentary
she recently watched came to mind.
I understand that back in the day,
that thats how people survived, eat-
ing meat, she said. Now its com-
mercial farming where animals arent
treated that well.
Tere are numerous reasons to
choose a vegetarian lifestyle, but
OConnor and Fleming agreed that it
shouldnt matter why that diet is a
very personal decision.
OConnors sons have continued to
embrace a vegetarian lifestyle afer
leaving the house.
Its not because theyre forced to,
she said. I believe it can be an inspi-
rational way of eating.
It just so happens that meat doesnt
inspire her.
I look at it as, for me, my answer is
just no thank you.

In a highly anticipated decision,
the Supreme Court declared the
Defense of Marriage Act uncon-
stitutional last Wednesday.
The act defined marriage as
a union between a man and a
woman and denied federal ben-
efits to same-sex couples whose
marriages were recognized on
the state level. Following the Su-
preme Courts decision, same-sex
couples can now receive those
benefits, like joint tax returns and
health insurance.
In his majority opinion, Justice
Anthony Kennedy wrote that
DOMA was struck down because
it violates basic due process and
equal protection principles ap-
plicable to the Federal Govern-
ment.
We asked students on campus
how they reacted to the Courts
decision.

How did you react to the Courts decision?
im really excited that they struck down
DoMa, and its really great to see all the
love and support on the internet from peo-
ple who are excited about it. and i know
that there are lots of LGBt activists who
are happy to move on to other issues they
consider pressing, so its great to have
that too.
Jennifer Nish, Omaha Neb.
im elated. Me and my boyfriend can
actually get married in Massachusetts
and still be here. obviously people would
think the frst step would be state-level
gay marriage, but its kind of backwards-
-good backwards -- where it comes feder-
ally frst and states will hopefully follow.
Scott Lloyd, Boston, Mass.
i was kind of surprised since weve gen-
erally had a conservative history concern-
ing most acts, but its kind of exciting
because its a move in a direction, which
is good. So we should see what happens
in the future, if they keep it up or change
their minds.
Annette Jardon, Overland Park, Kan.
Honestly, it seemed like a long time com-
ing. the frst time someone told me what
it was, i was like, Doesnt that violate
Full Faith and Credit on Face? it always
screamed unconstitutional to me. its not
a surprise, but a good step of progress
when were overturning unconstitutional,
discriminatory laws.

University
Athletics seals new TV deal with ESPN

Kansan file photo
senior guard travis releford dunks the ball
during a game this past season. More peo-
ple will be able to watch mens basketball
games, and many other KU athletic events,
with the Universitys new television deals.
One week afer the University agreed
to a deal with Time Warner Cable and
Kansas Citys Metro Sports to expand
the coverage of the Universitys athlet-
ic programs, they struck another deal
with the worldwide leader in sports,
ESPN.
Te deal with Time Warner fnished
up the tier three television rights.
Tere are three tiers in television
rights. Te frst are owned by national
networks, e.g. ESPN, and they get
the frst opportunity to pick games
for over-the-air broadcasts. Te sec-
ond tier rights are for the unselected
games that are appear on cable net-
works such as Time Warner. Te third
and fnal tier rights are to the games
remaining, which the school and con-
ference have to air as they see ft.
Having the Jayhawks streamed na-
tionwide is something Jim Marchiony,
the Universitys Assistant Athletic Di-
rector of Public Afairs, said will allow
the Jayhawks to reach farther than
ever before.
It means hundreds of hours of KU-
themed programming that will be
produced and aired in Kansas City
and throughout the state of Kansas,
Marchiony said. Tat programming
entails at least 50 sporting events,
everything from mens basketball,
womens basketball, volleyball, track
and feld and hundred of hours of
KU-themed programming.
Some of the themed programming
that will be aired will be pre-game
shows, post-game shows and a mag-
azine-type show that will be able to
focus on the entire University, not just
the athletic side.
Te University is the last of the Big
12 members to agree to their tier three
rights. Texas has their Longhorn Net-
work, which is ESPN-backed. Baylor,
Kansas State, Oklahoma, Oklahoma
State, TCU and Texas Tech have deals
with Fox. Iowa State and West Vir-
ginia have agreements with local net-
works in their regions.
Being last to sign to a deal, Marchio-
ny said the University was not rushed
to an agreement.
We think our deal is a terrifc ar-
rangement, Marchiony said. It is
near the best anywhere. We were not
in a hurry. We wanted to make sure
that what we did, was to the beneft
of the entire athletic program and the
University as a whole.
Te University wasnt fnished with
signing deals for television rights as
they agreed to a seven-year deal with
ESPN to broadcast over ESPN3, ES-
PNs live online streaming network.
Under that agreement, ESPN will
carry a minimum of 70 live events each
year including one football game, six
mens basketball games, as many as 16
womens basketball games, nine vol-
leyball matches, eight baseball games
and as many as 12 sofball, soccer and
track and feld events. Te deal also
includes 20 additional contests that
will be seen nationwide.
ESPN3 continues to serve as a des-
tination for college sports fans, and
our agreement with Kansas Athlet-
ics extends that commitment, John
Lasker, ESPNs vice president of pro-
gramming and acquisitions, said in
a news release. We look forward to
delivering these live events to the KU
fan base.

scheduled to kick of in two minutes.
Dammit, were going to miss the
frst pick, and well probably miss the
second pick, too, I said to Tyler Burt-
scher, my friend and fellow University
student, whod traveled down from
nearby Stamford, Conn. where hes
working this summer to see the
draf with me.
Missing the frst, and possibly sec-
ond pick in this years draf would
have been devastating for any Jayhawk
fan, especially when you consider the
uncertainty surrounding this years
draf, and the fact that Ben McLemore
could very well have been picked frst
overall. He was who we were there to
see and Jef Withey, of course
and there was a good shot wed miss
his selection. Id read plenty of rumors
about how the Cleveland Cavaliers
could possibly trade their No. 1 selec-
tion if they didnt bite on Kentuckys
Nerlens Noel. What if they had traded
it while we were in the subway with
no cell signal? What if the team theyd
traded to was one that could use a
silky-smooth shooting guard like Mc-
Lemore? Even if the Cavs were going
to use their No. 1 pick, tons of mock
drafs predicted that the Orlando
Magic would surely take the one-and-
done Jayhawk with the second pick.
Tat was the likeliest of scenarios
or so we thought so if we hurried,
wed maybe have a shot.
We could hear faint cheers inside
the arena, but there werent any boos,
so that meant NBA Commissioner
David Stern wasnt yet at the podium.
We still had time.
As we eventually got our tickets and
made our way to our seats, we heard
more than a few Rock Chalk hollers
from passers-by and doled out our fair
share of high fves to other Jayhawk
fans. Bear in mind that were more
than a thousand miles away from
the holy land Lawrence and in
a place where most college basketball
fans blood runs Syracuse orange. In a
city of eight million, its comforting to
know that good people Kansas fans
are around, and that night, they
were all at the Barclays Center.
Tat smug con-artist David Stern
was approaching the podium to
the tune of more than a thousand
boos as we fnally found our seats.
He spoke about something for a few
minutes no one was listening, they
were more focused on booing be-
fore dropping perhaps the biggest
bombshell of the evening: With the
frst pick in the 2013 NBA Draf, the
Cleveland Cavaliers select... Anthony
Bennett.
ANTHONY BENNETT?! What?!
Who the hell is this guy? Hes the frst
pick? Not Nerlens Noel? Te entire
arena let out a collective Whaaaat?!?!
before booing, because this was the
draf, and thats what you do: you boo.
Ten, the Magic were on the clock.
Tis is where Bens supposed to go,
I said to Tyler.
Nope. Victor Oladipo. He got a
rousing ovation from the thousands
of Indiana fans in the house, and a
few claps from me because the dude
can ball. But still, why didnt they pick
McLemore? We waited and waited
some more. Otto Porter. Cody Zeller.
Alex Len (WHAT?). Nerlens Noel (f-
nally).
And then, Stern gave us what wed
come for: With the seventh pick in
the 2013 NBA Draf, the Sacramento
Kings select Ben McLemore. We
burst out of our chairs in applause
as Ben stood up, hugged his family,
hugged Coach Self and made his way
to the stage. I let up on my cheers for a
second and noticed something weird:
Were like the only people who are
cheering right now.
But as far as Im concerned, this was
the best possible draf we could have
gone to. Each pick was followed by
thousands of people thrusting their
hands up onto their heads, jaws agape
in surprise. People were throwing
their hats down in frustration. We got
to watch the weirdest draf in recent
memory. Tats hard to beat.
