‘Invaluable’ dean announces resignation By Laura Clark
Maschio, who has worked as associate dean for five years, said Shay was ready to return to teaching. “It was time for him to go back to his first love,” Maschio said. Ben Arnolds, director of the School of Music, said Shay was not only generous as dean, but was also supportive of giving Shay the music and art schools the freedom to accomplish goals, even with budget cuts.

After 12 years, one of UK’s longest-serving deans is stepping down from the College of Fine Arts. Robert Shay, who was unavailable for comment because he was out of the country, will continue to work as part of the art faculty, specializing in ceramics, said Geraldine Maschio, associate dean of the College of Fine Arts. Shay will continue to serve as the College of Fine Arts dean until June 30, 2010.
“He went to the Provost and helped make cases to enlarge the music school,” Arnolds said. “(Shay) was good at working to get us what we needed.” Provost Kumble Subbaswamy was unavailable for comment before press time. In 2004, Shay hired art history professor Ben Withers. Withers said he decided to join the UK faculty because of the atmosphere Shay was able to create in the college. “It was quite clear he was going to be supportive of any initiatives,” Withers said. “He was an invaluable resource in getting accredi-
tation for the art program.” In addition to fundraising for the college and assisting in accrediting the UK art school, Shay played a large role in developing plans to renovate the Reynolds Building and adding more faculty to the college, Maschio said. Maschio said a national search will take place for a replacement, although she is not sure when a committee for the search will be formed. “He’s a good guy,” Withers said. “I’m sorry to see he’s stepping down.”

UK heifer becomes national cover girl By Roy York news@kykernel.com
An award-winning UK club has a new cover girl — heifer calf No. 420. The calf was featured on the Sept. 10 issue of Hoard's Dairyman, one of the most widely circulated dairy magazines in the world. The magazine also contains a short profile on the accomplishments and status of the UK Coldstream Dairy Research Farm. “That little story gives recognition to the program,” said William Silvia, professor and dairy section coordinator for the department of animal and food sciences. “It's read by dairy farmers across the nation.” Silvia said the UK dairy farm and the UK Dairy Club deserve the recognition because the program is consistently ranked as the top milk production farm in the state, even above corporate farms. In 2009, the Southeastern Holstein-Friesian Association ranked the UK dairy farm as the number one farm in milk production for Holstein and Jersey breeds. Silvia said the UK dairy farm produces nearly 3,000 gallons of milk every two days. This milk is sold to a local Kroger facility in Winchester, Ky. The farm earns around $365,000 per year and is used to fund the dairy production. Beka Chmielewski, animal science senior and a member of the Dairy Club, said the UK

Over the summer, I spent a week in a small town called Gowanda that basically had an entire river dumped on it within an hour. The destruction was massive. The entire town was painted a murky brown hue and the smell of sewage followed me home every day. It was probably the most eye-opening experience of my summer, seeing just exactly how devastating standing water can be. — BRITNEY MCINTOSH
I’ve never had plastic surgery Mother Nature or nip and tuck? In a new interview, Demi Moore denies going under the knife. Us investigates “I've never had it done," Demi Moore, 46, recently told French Marie Claire when asked about plastic surgery. "But I would never judge those who have." The mom of three (married to Ashton Kutcher, 31) added: "For the moment, I prefer to be a beautiful woman of my age than try desperately to look 30." Some experts, however, are suspect of the 5-foot5 beauty, often considered the poster child for plastic surgery done right. "People who look that good over 40 have done some aesthetic tweaking," Francis Palmer, a Beverly Hills plastic surgeon, tells Us. (Moore's reps did not return calls for comment.)

CALLING THE SHOTS PHOTOS BY BRITNEY MCINTOSH | STAFF

Officials work long hours for love of the game By Nick Craddock sports@kykernel.com
They make an unpopular call and they are criticized. They miss a call and they are vilified. This is just part of the job for any official in any sport. Despite the chorus of jeers and heckles that is the accompanying soundtrack of many officials’ jobs, the official plays an integral role in overseeing the fair competition of a Burk sporting event, from the professional sports leagues to the youth leagues and even in intramural leagues. Every year, the UK Intramural Office employs a wide range of students, graduate and undergraduate, Greek and non-Greek, experienced and inexperienced, with varying majors and backgrounds, as officials, said Charlie Burk, UK’s intramural director. Burk, who officiates high school sports as a side job, said this “melting pot” of students is trained to deal with
the life as an official, which includes the rules of the sports, how to enforce these rules and to be ready to deal with the occasional “nuttiness.” “I’ve never been thanked by a team for winning them a game,” Burk said. “I have been blamed for losing.” The passion many competitors, who often resort to intramurals as their only outlet for sports, bring to the playing field challenges the officials to stay composed and remain confident of their calls at all times. Landscape architecture senior and intramural official Simone Heath recalls making a controversial call in a fraternity flag-football game that lead to the entire losing team yelling at her. On the last play of the game, near the back goal line of the endzone, the offensive and defensive player caught the ball simultaneously. Heath ruled the catch a touchdown because, according to rules, the advantage goes to the offensive player in such a situation, she said. Two years ago, official Danny Amon experienced a situation almost identical to Heath’s. Amon also ruled in favor of the offensive player. “The team blamed me for
krystalball
an entire season,” Amon said. “They are looking at your stripes, not who you are as a person.” Exercise science junior Tyler Long has a method for coping with the tough calls he has to make. “I really don’t care what people think,” Long said. “Half the people on the field will not like the call you make.” Teams are allowed to dispute calls, but the official’s call is rarely overturned since the use of instant replay is not available at the intramural level. Heath, Amon and Long are trained to officiate all of the intramural games, a list that includes soccer, basketball, softball, flag football, dodgeball and ultimate frisbee. An average work shift lasts from 4:30 p.m., to about midnight on hourly minimum wage pay. During a shift, officials usually call three to four games. Most nights there are 24 to 28 officials working, along with supervisors. In total, 50 to 55 officials are employed, the “ideal” number, Burk said. Neither Heath nor Long expected much to come of their job. Both applied for the position because of the con-

It’s another weekend, and for the UK volleyball team, it’s another tournament. After hosting a tournament two weekends ago and traveling to Indiana last weekend, the Cats (7-0) will hit the road again this weekend, this time for the Kansas State Tournament. They will play Kansas State on Friday evening, then face Purdue and Portland on Saturday. “Playing these tournaments really prepares us for the next step after the (regular) season,” sophomore middle blocker Becky Pavan said. “So, for postseason, they’re really helpful.” In the first tournament of the season, the Kentucky Classic, the Cats beat all three opponents handily, losing one set the entire tournament. The Indiana Adidas Classic was much the same, again only losing one set throughout the tournament. On Tuesday, however, the Cats didn’t have such an easy match. Having to rally from a two-
set deficit to overcome a Cincinnati team that was co-champions of the Big East last year, the Cats said they learned what they’re capable of and now know they can win those games. “It shows that it’s not over until it’s over,” senior libero BriAnne Sauer said. “Even if we are down in a match, we can always come up, and until that last point goes you have to work hard.” By the end of the upcoming tournament on Saturday evening, the Cats will have played seven matches in the last eight days, including six on the road. UK is aided in the early season stretch of road contests by the number of players they have with experience. They said the road games will help at the end of the season. “K-State has one of the best home court environments in the country,” UK head coach Craig Skinner said. “Playing another top-25 team in Purdue in a neutral position are all types of things that will prepare you as the season goes along and also getting into the NCAA Tournament.”
With all the games in such a short period of time, Skinner said the Cats will practice between 40 to 50 percent of the time they would normally do so as to not wear down the team. And if you listen to some of the players, that could be a very smart idea. Sophomore outside hitter Ann Armes said the practices are sometimes more intense than the games they’ve played so far. With 11 letterwinners returning from a 26-6 team and a freshmen class rated as tops in the Southeastern Conference, the Cats have more depth than they’ve ever had under Skinner. When you take that into account, the Cats aren’t surprised by their start — the best they’ve had since 1993. “We have one of the best defensive teams – I’m convinced – in the conference, if not the country with Bri(Anne Sauer), (Laura) Stokowski and (Stephanie) Klefot,” Armes said. “The ball just does not drop. It really helps us stay focused; you have to keep going at every rally. It’s hard to score in practice.”

Lexington focusing on wrong problem With the Streetscape Master Plan, which is blocking off parts of Limestone and hurting local businesses, Lexington is intent on improving downtown in time for the 2010 World Equestrian Games. But it seems Lexington has been focusing on the wrong section of downtown to improve. According to a Sept. 8 Kernel article, two people, one a UK student, were struck and injured by a tow truck near Shriner’s Hospital on Richmond Road. According to a Sept. 10 Kernel article, UK sophomore Sierra T. Emrich, 19, suffered a broken arm from the accident. Lexington resident Alfred B. Baker, 21 was still in the hospital as of Sept. 9. The two Lexington residents, while under suspicion by Lexington Police of being intoxicated, were not at fault, but instead the tow truck driver became distracted and veered to the right shoulder, hitting the two while they were walking on the side of the road. As of Sept. 9, no charges were filed against the driver, Louis D. Lunsford, according to the Sept. 10 Kernel article. The two residents were walking on the shoulder because there are no sidewalks on that stretch of Richmond Road. A lot of students don’t own cars or prefer not to
drive when they go to bars in the area. While the residents could have called a taxi, if they were indeed intoxicated, they were making the wise choice of not getting behind a wheel. Tow truck drivers shouldn’t be veering to the shoulder of the road, but still, walking on the shoulder of a busy street like Richmond Road is unsafe. Sidewalks are the solution for pedestrians to these unsafe conditions. The area of Richmond Road the residents were struck in is between campus and a restaurant and shopping district, with subdivisions and houses along the way. Why was this busy and populated area of downtown not developed with sidewalks? Why has Lexington not made plans to develop this part of the area like they are developing the Limestone area? Limestone construction can wait, especially when pedestrians are being struck by tow trucks on streets with no sidewalks. Lexington should take a harder look at the parts of downtown that need real improvements, focusing on making Lexington safer for the students of UK and permanent residents of the city, not just improving downtown for the people attending the World Equestrian Games.
UK Catering needs to stop wasting food As an employee over the last year for UK Catering Services, I have been on campus a great deal, and acquired a much greater appreciation for how JORDAN many difKNOTTS ferent orGuest ganizacolumnist tions and events take place around the university everyday. I have realized how much UK has to offer, and how busy the campus really is, even when classes are not in session. And now that I am a senior reflecting back on the past three years, I have noticed the progress UK has made. UK has grown immensely every year, not just in the number of buildings or the sheer number of students, but the strides they have made to becoming more 'green'. Since arriving here in the fall of 2006, I have adopted more and more of these 'green' practices. From recycling, to turning off the lights or televisions in my house when not in use, I feel as if these small acts are making a difference. But no matter how 'green' UK may be, there is always room for improvement. That is where my job comes into play. I was told if I wrote this column that I would no longer have a job, but I guess you can't make an omelet without breaking some eggs, so here it goes. When I started working for UK Catering, I found myself in leftover heaven. Every night I would ride my bike home, performing a juggling act with pans of leftovers. Upon reaching home, I would be greeted by my roommates and friends as if I were Santa Claus, and the pans of leftovers were a never-ending bag of presents. But things changed about four or five months ago, and the employees were only al-
lowed to take home one plate per person. So instead of packing all the leftovers up, now they were being thrown away in mass amounts. As much as it disgusted me, I knew that I had to abide by the rules and throw away the food. But slowly and surely, it began to make me more and more angry every time I had to visit the dumpster with the leftovers. In UK Catering’s defense, I know there are all types of regulations and laws set by the state and Health Department concerning what can and cannot be done with leftovers. Mainly, if food has been sitting out for a certain amount of time or was on the line, it is not allowed to be given away, because if someone gets sick, they are the ones that are legally liable. But that is why I am willing to lose my job over this topic. I can no longer stand in the kitchen and throw away pounds upon pounds of food I know there is nothing wrong with. I was raised to finish everything on my plate and to never waste food. And because of the way I was raised, it strongly opposes my morals and beliefs to do just that. I know that UK Catering is just one business amongst thousands of restaurants that have to throw out food every day, but as a university striving to be 'green,' something must change. We must reevaluate the way we manage how much food to cook, or the ways which we dispose of it, rather than make no use of the leftovers. Since discussing the matter with my superiors has not brought any change, I turn to anyone who will listen, for the waste of food in this country is far too great. I hope my opinion on the subject brings about some change in the future, for it is likely I will be hungry and searching for a new job, one where I do not have to witness such an unbearable act as throwing food away.

Campus controversies heating up for school year For the past couple weeks, I have been debating on what campus or national issue to write my first column of the semester about. During the many failed atZACH tempts KISER and many Contributing late nights columnist staring at a blank word document, I slowly began to come to a shocking conclusion about the atmosphere and state of affairs here at UK. Oddly enough, the river of controversy that usually winds its way through our campus has gone dry; the water is all gone for now. But instead of sitting back to enjoy this time of peace, harmony and general quiet that has settled over the campus, I figured it was my duty to preview three upcoming controversies that will be coming to a UK campus near you in the coming weeks and months.

The final preview is not a specific upcoming controversial issue, but a collage of issues and sources that could become controversial. It could be the revival of the library hours/budget debate, an issue I predicted last year would rear its head again. Student Government, a usual plethora of controversy and debacle, is sure to provide a few logs to throw on the fire of controversy here on campus. Let’s hope that newlyelected SG President Ryan Smith will break with tradition and run a relatively controversy-free government that truly looks out for the best needs of the students. But if that happened, what would I have to write about? My hope for positive progress is always in constant competition with my desire to write a good opinion column. Look for these and other attractions coming to your university in the coming weeks and months. Zach Kiser is a biology junior. E-mail opinions@kykernel.com.
Weight issues easy to slim down with exercise Simply stated, a synergy exists between things when their whole is greater than the sum of their parts. For instance, everyone would rather eat a well-prepared pizza than work their way through piles of its various ingredients. In order to maximize the quality of their life, people are constantly searching for synergies that can TIM save them time or RILEY improve their usage Contributing of resources. Unforcolumnist tunately, as our society continues to develop, it is becoming increasingly difficult to synergize the pursuit of a healthy lifestyle with the demands of a busy life. For the average person, exercising means taking a chunk of time out of his or her day that could be used doing many other productive ways in order to lift heavy things or run really far, not exactly the most enjoyable activities on earth. As responsibilities in one’s life increase, the willingness of a person to take time to engage themselves in these strenuous pursuits obviously begins to wane. When there are only 24 hours in the day and people feel like they have 28 hours of work, they embrace synergies to bridge the gap. Unfortunately for physical fitness, there is often no synergy to be found. While growing up, exercising had all the synergies one could ever want. In my elementary school, going outside to run laps around the bus lane was a standard activity. By doing this, one could stay out of trouble with the teacher, get some exercise, and attempt to embarrass
others by dominating the races. Synergies abounded. Later in one’s pre-college years, there were always team sports to play where all the running and lifting we now use for exercise could actually be put to use in a fun activity with numerous other benefits. Now, outside of a few intramurals, staying physically fit means engaging in often tedious, non-synergistic actions.
It is infinitely easier to consume a poor diet than to deal with the requirements and necessities of a healthy one. These same problems can be seen in the choices of food people make. It is infinitely easier to consume a poor diet than to deal with the requirements and necessities of a healthy one. McDonald’s is cheap, fast and tastes good. There is no healthy alternative which can match all those criteria to the level that fast-food restaurants can. Seeking the healthy choice means expending more of one’s constrained time at many points with little synergy between that chore and any others in the course of the day. Eating healthy tends to be more time inefficient than other choices and presents no means of accomplishing other requirements simultaneously, so it logically falls by the wayside for most people. While this issue can seem personal, our modern medical system makes each person’s health the concern of everyone. Obesity causes numerous, expensive problems for people, and that expense is felt in the wallets of every single Ameri-
can. An organization called Strategies to Overcome and Prevent Obesity Alliance (STOP) and two former U.S. Surgeons General recently issued a joint statement calling for national policy makers to recognize obesity as the largest driving force in the health crisis. While obesity harms the health system now, if the move toward socialized health care is made, it will become an even graver concern. According to STOP, there is an additional $147 billion spent each year in health costs because of obesity. This is a cost that will have to be paid by everyone despite the fact that it is caused by the choices of individual people. Undoubtedly, some people are naturally very slim and others are a little big, but there is much within a person’s control in terms of his or her weight. As our health-care system evolves, being unwilling to manage one’s weight will put an additional burden on everyone else in the U.S. There may not be any synergies for the average person for eating and exercising anymore, most jobs barely even require physical exertion; however, in order to keep a viable, fair health care system, no matter what happens in Congress soon, people must begin to either find an exercising synergy or simply deal with the fact none exists. Doing so will not only improve one’s own life because of the myriad of positive effects emanating from that choice, but it will stop burdens from being put on everyone else to pay for the poor choices. It’s not an ideal scenario, but it’s the one that exists. And unless America is prepared to deal with it properly, the personal and economic repercussions will be severe.

COWS
FAST-A-THON
Continued from page 1
Continued from page 1
In addition to choice breeding, Silvia said the UK dairy farm is involved in an ongoing experiment to compare the milk production of purebred and crossbred cows. Silvia said the breeding experiments could result in cows that can provide more milk more often, are more resistant to infection and deal with the stress of giving mass amounts of milk more effectively. “Selective breeding determines the maximum amount of milk a cow can give, but their diet and nutrition determines how close we get to that maximum,” Silvia said. Joey Clark, manager of the UK dairy farm, regiments a strict diet for the cows. “The needs of the cows are paramount and feeding is critical,” Clark said. “They're basically like my children … I know most of these cows by sight.” Silvia said the dairy also provides certain comforts for the cows to encourage higher milk production. Cows are kept cool by awnings that provide shade and a sprinkler system on the awnings. “Milk production is directly related to how much food the cows eat,” Silvia said. “Cows don't eat if they're too hot.”
PROM Continued from page 1 prom king and queen will also be crowned during the party. “The after party is at Molly Brooke’s Bar, which is 21 and older, and there will be 80s music,” Walker said. “Last year we had just over 100 riders. There were people on tandem bikes and old-fashioned bikes,” Lyons said. Lyons said the event raised more than $1,000 for LASC last year. “Forty percent of our participants were students,” Shearer said. “Bike Prom this year has more stops. It will be bigger and better.” Bike prom is sponsored by local businesses like Pedal Power, The Morris Book Shop, Molly Brooke's Irish Bar, The Hive, Sidebar Grill, Third
Street Stuff, Zag's Boutique, Soundbar, January, Bluegrass Sotheby's and CD Central. “Being a stop for the event means people are coming in to businesses,” Shearer said. “Everybody likes to get dressed up and there aren’t many occasions to do that,” Walker said. “It is a lot of fun and it is for a good cause.” Participation in Bike Prom costs $5, with all proceeds going to LASC, a nonprofit organization that provides classes and workshops for all ages. Students can register the day of the race or pre-register by calling LASC at (859) 252-5222.

event and dinner by the Muslim Student Association and the Student Activities Board’s cultural affairs committee. Speakers were featured at the event, including Assistant Vice President of Institutional Diversity Steven Oliver, before the group broke their fast in unity. Fasting is commonly associated with the Muslim holiday Ramadan. MSA president Matt Longacre said Ramadan focuses on reflection, one’s relationship with God and the plight of the poor. Longacre said the theme of the Fast-A-Thon was “Steadfast” — a symbol of the mindset people should have about fasting. “We need to be steadfast against poverty, against hunger,” he said. “It’s not a single act, it’s continuous.” Fasting also teaches Muslims discipline, empathy and generosity, said Muslim scholar and inspirational speaker Allaudin Allaudin in his address to the crowd. Discipline is very important because “wasting time in evil actions can lead to wasted lives,” he said. Midway through the event, more chairs were brought in to accommodate the large mass of people standing along the walls. “I’m really happy with the turnout,” Longacre said. The event was open to people of all faiths — or no faith at all. Longacre said it is important for many non-Muslims on UK’s campus and across the nation to learn about the importance of fasting and Ramadan. “There are between 500 and 700 Muslims on campus,” he said. “Islam is the fastest-growing religion in America.” Physics and mathematics freshman Tyler Williams, an atheist, was one of the many who attended the event out of curiosity. Williams said Thursday was his fifth day of fasting. The event helped his understanding of fasting, he said. “Before, I didn’t understand,” Williams said. “Now, I understand, and I can definitely see how you could feel closer to God after not eating all day.” Foods that were served at the Fast-A-Thon included a Southwest Asian chicken dish, a North African stew, hummus, rice and desserts from across the world. Planning for the Fast-A-Thon event began in February, Longacre said. UK is one of about 50 campuses nationwide to host a fasting event during Ramadan. This was the third year UK has hosted the event, and the ninth year nationwide, he said. Longacre said he wants an even larger occasion next year by getting more campus organizations involved.
Undeclared freshman Eric Blomquist, a candidate for UK Pershing Rifles, helps the group set up flags on the front lawn of the Main Building on Thursday evening for their annual Sept. 11 memorial that will take place on Friday.

Physician’s program to hold race, tournament By Taylor Robinson news@kykernel.com
The UK Physician Assistant program will be hosting the second annual Chickfil-A Physician Assistant Day 5K/1-Mile Fun Walk/Cornhole Tournament Saturday at UK Coldstream Park. The events are to promote awareness for the program and to raise money for the Refuge Medical Clinic and the Joseph Hamburg Student Society. Last year’s race drew 100 entries, and this year’s event is expected to be more successful. “The first time an event is held, it is always hard to get a lot of participation,” said Stephanie Cruse, the event’s coordinator and member of UK’s physician assistant class of 2011. “Taking on the responsibility of planning and hosting an event while being a full-time physician assistant student is a great(er) task.” A portion of the funds raised by the
race’s registration fees will be donated to the Refuge Medical Clinic, a non-profit organization that provides medical and dental services to uninsured individuals in Jessamine and Fayette County. The Joseph Hamburg Student Society, the official UK Physician’s Assistant students, will also receive some of the proceeds from Saturday’s event. The society will use the money to fund activities such as mission trips for those involved students. A physician assistant is supervised by a licensed physician and is authorized to perform tasks such as physical examinations, counseling patients, administering emergency care and prescribing medication. This career can also be used as a stepping stone to administrative positions in the health care system. Participants will receive an event Tshirt and water bottle, and lunch will be provided by the main sponsor of the event, Chick-fil-A. The event will be held on Saturday at
UK’s Coldstream Park on Newtown Pike. Registration is from 7:30 to 8:30 a.m., and the events will begin at 8:45 a.m., starting with the 1-Mile Fun Walk. The top male and female finishers in the 5K will be awarded free Chick-fil-A for a year, and the winning cornhole team’s members will each receive a $100 bundle, courtesy of the restaurant. Raffle tickets are on sale for $1, featuring prizes donated by more than 60 sponsors of the event.
If you go What: Chick-fil-A Physician Assistant Day K/-Mile Fun Walk/Cornhole Tournament When: Saturday at 7:30 to 8:30 a.m. Where: UK Coldstream Park Admission: 5K and cornhole are $20, 1Mile Fun Walk is $10
Imaginative film ‘9’ would be better in 3D Ever so often, movies try to produce something they believe is above scale and gives the audience something different and original. Many times, movie audiences feel they want to be wowed by something more than remakes and unsatisfying sequels. The movie “9” has given BRYCE audiences the origiBRADFORD nality they have Kernel been waiting for. columnist Cleverly released on 9/09/09, the film does an amazing job taking audiences from their theater seats to a post-apocalyptic world. The film centers around a puppetlike creature, with the number nine on his back, who wakes up to a world ravaged by destruction and war. The film
takes place in a parallel world in the near future, where a group of rag dolls living a post-apocalyptic existence find one of their own. The character 9, voiced by Elijah Wood, displays leadership qualities that may help them to survive. Movie goers who recognize Wood as the voice of 9 may experience a familiar feeling of the “Lord of the Rings” trilogy, as the character is eager to make a long-distance journey when a fellow comrade is captured. The group includes 1 (Christopher Plummer), a domineering war veteran; 2 (Martin Landau), an aged inventor; 5 (John C. Reilly), a stalwart mechanic; 6 (Crispin Glover), a visionary artist; and 7 (Jennifer Connelly), a brave warrior. Constantly running and hiding from predatory machines, the group desperately tries to stay alive as well as try to find the meaning of their existence. Visually, “9” is one of the best ani-
mated films displaying great detail in every scene and using vibrant color to show that this is no plain and ordinary scenery. While many movies are being released in the resurrected 3D format, most of them are undeserving, such as live-action films. This film left me surprised the entire time, as it was a film that would have been so much better in 3D. The film was so visually stunning, it almost looked 3D as it was. Why didn’t they take it all the way? Fans of the imaginative Tim Burton and “Wanted” director Timur Bekmambetov, were excited to have them come in as producers of the film. “9” is definitely a film that fans of abstract imagery and an original concept will enjoy. The film’s dark nature will appeal to many older audiences, as this film may not be for the young ones. Bryce Bradford is an agricultural communications senior. E-mail bbradford@kykernel.com.
