CELEBRATING 39 YEARS OF INDEPENDENCE

Lexington becomes health oasis

High schools dance for cause

2nd Sunday brings student volunteers

DanceBlue takes charity statewide

By Kelsey Caudill news@kykernel.com

Runners, dancers, ribbon twirlers and Lexingtonians of all ages, including more than 200 UK student volunteers, covered downtown streets on Sunday in an effort to make Kentucky healthier. The third annual 2nd Sunday event to promote statewide physical activity commenced in Lexington as residents biked, walked, ran, played and participated in healthy activities. A mile-long loop in the downtown area was blocked off for various types of physical activity, health and nutrition booths, and children’s activities, including inflatables and face painting. Diana Doggett, Fayette County extension agent for Family and Consumer Sciences and state coordinator for the 2nd Sunday initiative, stressed the importance of getting community members involved to make Kentucky a healthier state. “The 2nd Sunday initiative addresses the critical need to be physically active in Kentucky and is building bridges between community partners,” Doggett said. “University of Kentucky Family and Consumer Sciences extension agents and the School of Human Environmental Sciences have stepped up to facilitate the majority of 2nd Sunday coalitions in conjunction with local government, health agencies, churches, business and local parks. In 2009, 2nd Sunday was named a UK Commonwealth collaborative.” Family studies senior Megan Hempfling interned with the School of Human Environmental Sciences and worked closely with Doggett to organize Lexington’s 2nd Sunday initiative. Hempfling said 2nd Sunday is significant because it allows members of the community to participate in physical activity at no charge. “2nd Sunday doesn’t mean that we See HEALTH on page 2

The Wildcats feel the disappointment of their third straight loss after Auburn kicked a last-second field goal Saturday night.

Cats fall short, Auburn wins 37-34 By Ben Jones bjones@kykernel.com

Maybe Joker Phillips couldn’t help but repeat himself. After No. 8 Auburn hung on to beat UK 37-34 on Saturday, giving the Cats their third straight loss, UK’s head coach kept retreating to the same words in his postgame news conference. “My heart aches for those guys. They played their hearts out,” Philips said. “We played inspired, played with emotions, made plays when we needed to have them made, just came up a little short. “My heart aches for those guys. I asked those guys to play with everything on the field, play with heart, play with emotion and they did.” After falling behind 31-14 in the first half, the Cats’ defense bounced back in the second half to slow Tiger quarterback Cam Newton as the offense pulled within striking range. UK (3-3, 0-3 Southeastern Conference) tied the game at 31 in the third quarter and at 34 in the fourth quarter but fell short. With the memory of a failed late-game rally at Ole Miss fresh in their minds from last week, the Cats’ fourth quarter comeback attempt wasn’t enough. Newton drove Auburn (6-0, 3-0 SEC) down the field, burning the clock in a drive that lasted nearly seven-and-a-half minutes before a chip shot field goal downed UK in the closing seconds. The Tigers’ 6-foot-6 signalcaller went on a rampage, rushing for four firsthalf touchdowns while racking up 198 rushing yards and 210 passing yards.

A ‘gorey story’ heralds Halloween By Kendall Smith features@kykernel.com

With fall in full swing and Halloween just around the corner, the UK Department of Theatre is adding a touch of dark humor to the holiday with its production of Gorey Stories. Edward Gorey Written Original by UK author of ‘Gorey Stories’ a l u m n u s Stephen Currens and based on the work of Edward Gorey, the play features a col-

You’re always wondering what the next story is going to be.” Nerves occasionally play a part in the opening night of a play, but everything went off without a hitch for the cast. “Overall, being able to feed off the audience’s energy helped us be better actors,” said Lucy Hargett, a junior theatre and pre-med student and an actress in the play. “It went exceptionally well for opening night.” Director Russell Henderson, who saw the original production of Gorey Stories See PLAY on page 2

Auburn quarterback Cam Newton played a key role in the Tigers’ win over UK with four rushing touchdowns. Junior wide receiver Randall Cobb led a UK offense that produced when it mattered most but couldn’t catch a break. Cobb finished with a passing touchdown, a receiving touchdown and two rushing touchdowns, but the Cats’ defense failed to recover any of four fumbles coughed up by Auburn ballcarriers. Junior safety Winston Guy said the defense had recovered some of the loose balls, but the calls didn’t go their way. “I think those calls, it’s the refs’ calls but I think those two fumbles, we had (them),” Guy said. “I guess See FOOTBALL on page 2

UK students aren't the only ones who know how to get their groove on. DanceBlue, the 24-hour UK dance marathon, won't be confined to just UK students. On Nov. 13, students from Lexington Catholic High School will take part in their own DanceBlue in the form of a five-hour mini-marathon. Just like the funds from UK's DanceBlue, all the money raised goes to the Golden Matrix Fund, an organization that helps children and families suffering from childhood cancer. Last year, its first year, around 200 Lexington Catholic students raised $12,000 during the minimarathon, Elena Jones, marketing junior and DanceBlue High School Mini-Marathon Coordinator, said. She said the school's goal this year is to raise more money and get more students involved. Each student is required to raise $50 in order to dance. “It's a neat idea in how it connects people in the community that are outside UK,” Jones said. “It's cool because a lot of these kids may not even go to UK, and they get so excited about it.” Students at the high school nominate a committee and students from UK act as advisers, she said. Overall Chair and marketing and management senior Matt Dempsey said the idea for the high school minimarathon came two years ago from Penn State University's dance marathon, which involves elementary, middle and high schools. Ballard High School in Louisville is also working with UK to hold a DanceBlue mini-marathon in the spring. Dempsey said the minimarathon shows high school students an example of what UK students are doing to help the community. “It's great to introduce them to this cause, and it's great as well to introduce them to UK,” he said.

N.J. lawmakers propose bills in wake of Rutgers suicide By Elise Young MCT

TRENTON, N.J. — New Jersey legislators say they will tighten laws to protect the rights of alleged victims such as Rutgers freshman Tyler Clementi, but the effort could take years — or go nowhere. Days after prosecutors announced charges against two Rutgers students and word of Clementi’s suicide shocked many, lawmakers promised action. Their promised bills follow a state tradition of naming such measures to honor the memories of crime or accident victims, including Jessica’s Law, to raise sentences for drivers involved in road-rage crashes; Maggie’s Law, to punish sleep-deprived drivers involved in accidents; and Lisa’s Law, to track domestic-violence offenders. The best-known — Megan's Law, after the Hamilton 7-year-old who was abducted,

raped and murdered by a neighbor with a past that included sexual violence — created an international model for published sex-offender registries. A federally funded study released last year, however, suggested that in New Jersey, the law does not prevent assaults, and its $5 million annual cost may not be justified. Others efforts have stalled. Steven’s Law has lingered in committee since 2006, when Steven Domalewski, a Wayne 12-year-old, was injured by a line drive struck by an aluminum bat. The bill would allow only wooden bats in youth games. Sen. Shirley K. Turner, D-Mercer, last week proposed legislation that would stiffen the punishment for invasion of privacy, to a maximum 10 years in prison, in the wake of See RUTGERS on page 2

FOOTBALL Continued from page 1 it’s because they’re No. 8 in the nation I guess, but they just didn’t go our way. We just have to come back next week and play.” For the third straight week, players said they’d take the game as a learning experience and move forward. Phillips was encouraged by the performance of the defense in the second half, when the Cats made adjustments in an effort to contain Newton’s running. Players said the UK defense also upped its intensity in the second half. Phillips echoed them — before echoing himself again. “I always knew what this team was about,” Phillips said. “This team will fight until there are zeroes on the clock. This team has heart, there’s no question about that. This is a team that has a lot of heart, that will fight you until there are zeroes on the clock.” For Phillips, who has seen many close losses on the UK sideline as a player and coach, everything seemed a little too familiar. “They all hurt. They all rip your guts out,” Phillips

said. “I don’t feel any different than the players in there or the assistant coaches. “They rip your guts out, no question about that.”

GAME NOTES Cobb had two touchdowns rushing, one receiving and a passing touchdown. His three scores now have him tied for first on UK’s all-time career touchdowns list with former wide receiver Craig Yeast. He also moved into fifth place alltime on the career scoring list with 194 points. He needs 32 points to move into fourth on the career scoring list … Sophomore linebacker Danny Trevathan led the defense with a career-high 17 tackles, including 10 unassisted tackles. His previous career high in tackles was set last week at Ole Miss, when he had 15 tackles … Senior quarterback Mike Hartline finished 23 of 28 for 220 yards. Wide receivers dropped two passes. As a team, the Cats have thrown for at least 200 yards in every game this season … Senior tailback Derrick Locke left the game in the second half with a shoulder stinger and did not return.

of Agriculture’s support for 2nd Sunday and promoting a healthier Kentucky. “We are about healthy families, healthy lifestyles, nutrition and helping people become more active,” Henning said. “I think 2nd Sunday makes people realize that physical activity can be fun and that it can take on a lot of different forms.” This year, 115 of Kentucky’s 120 counties participated in 2nd Sunday. Kentucky has gained national recognition as the first state

to employ a program like this, which tackles the issue of inactivity and the lack of built environment to support physical health, Doggett said. Nursing sophomore Megan Dodge volunteered at the event and said it was essential to get the campus involved. “UK is such a huge part of Lexington, and if people see us thinking it’s important then they’re going to think it’s important, too,” Dodge said. In addition to the state-

wide initiative, Lexington holds monthly 2nd Sunday events. Weekly bike rides departing from Cheapside Park are also held every Sunday. The next scheduled monthly event is a bike ride from Cheapside Park to the Beaumont Center on Nov. 14. “2nd Sunday is not just about one fun day in October but more importantly, an opportunity to raise awareness and increase the availability of safe places for physical activity year round,” Doggett said.

act.” Clementi, 18, of Ridgewood, jumped off the George Washington Bridge to his death on Sept. 22, a few days after a Web camera allegedly streamed his sexual encounter with a man to Internet viewers. His body was identified a week later. By then, word of his disappearance — and the investigation of the sex broadcast — had become an international story, with friends and family remembering a kind, musically talented young man and strangers calling for an end to the sort of torment he may have endured. Two of Clementi's acquaintances — his roommate, Dharun Ravi, and Ravi’s friend Molly Wei, both 18 — were charged with invasion of privacy, and prosecutors reportedly are researching whether they also could be charged with a bias

crime. Ravi was released on $25,000 bail and Wei was released on her own recognizance. Neither has spoken to reporters. Friends have described them as bright, affable classmates for whom cruelty would be out of character. Two assemblywomen — Valerie Vainieri Huttle, DEnglewood, and Mary Pat Angelini, R-Monmouth — started work in January on a so-called anti-bullying bill of rights, to be introduced this month. Although the Rutgers incident was not the inspiration for the bill, Vainieri Huttle said, it highlighted the need “to reshape the student culture.” “It’s sort of educating them to be more tolerant and respectful of their peers,” she said. “Students who bully will not be tolerated in New Jersey schools.” The bill would require

each district to retain an antibullying specialist, formalize a chain of command for reporting and investigating incidents and compel principals to contact parents of all involved in bullying behavior. Many such bills, however, stall in the legislative process despite the attention they collect in the wake of the tragedies the measures hope to correct. “As unfortunate as it is, sometimes it takes a tragedy to uncover either weakness or a gaping hole in law,” said Derek Roseman, a spokesman for state Senate President Stephen Sweeney. “But the most important thing is that the law must be written to stand the tests of both the legal system and time. Lawmakers often need time to put their emotions and personal feelings aside so they can review a proposal with clear eyes.”

duction is not exactly similar to Currens’ original version. “It has different strengths,” Henderson said. “There are some similarities, but this is a different thing.” Nancy Jones, chair of the Department of Theatre, was also impressed with the show. “I thought the audience bought in as soon as the curtains went up,” Jones said. “They knew they were in a Tim Burton-esque world.

They could appreciate the subtleties.” The students’ acting particularly impressed Jones. “I like the way they interact with each other,” Jones said. “I saw the students do things I didn’t know they could do. I love what that says in terms of the future.” Gorey Stories continues Oct. 14-16 at 7:30 p.m., and Oct. 16 at 2 p.m. at the Guignol Theatre.

Harry Potter not to be 3-D LOS ANGELES Stung by criticism that it rushed the conversion of "Clash of the Titans" into 3-D earlier this year, Warner Bros. is playing it safe with "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1." The studio said Friday it would not release a planned 3-D version of the movie when it opens Nov. 19, saying it didn't have enough time to complete the conversion of the seventh Harry Potter film. "Despite everyone's best efforts, we were unable to convert the film in its entirety and meet the highest standards of quality," the studio said. "We do not want to disappoint fans who have long-anticipated the conclusion of this extraordinary journey." The move appears aimed at avoiding a repeat of the controversy that erupted last spring when consumers and critics widely panned the quality of the 3-D effects in "Clash of the Titans," one of a slew of movies that Hollywood

"Harry Potter" director David Yates and producer David Heyman both expressed support for the decision in a joint statement. "For 10 years, we have worked alongside (Warner Bros. President) Alan Horn and the studio, whose priority has always been to preserve the integrity of Jo Rowling's books as we have adapted them to the screen, and this decision reflects that commitment." The studio did say it planned to release the second installment of the final "Harry Potter" film as scheduled, on July 15, 2011, in both 2D and 3-D formats.

Kernel amps credibility initiatives KERNEL EDITORIAL Accuracy is the pillar of good journalism. The Kentucky Kernel recognizes this and does everything possible to ensure its stories are entirely accurate before publication. Last Monday, in an attempt to further its efforts to ensure accuracy, the Kernel began issuing accuracy checks to sources used in its stories. These allow us to review the professionalism of our journalists while informing them of the things they are doing well and more importantly, the areas they can improve. The accuracy checks give stories’ sources the opportunity to comment on a range of variables of the story they were quoted or featured in. The checks ask for the conditions of the interview such as, whether it was conducted in person, or via phone or e-mail. Additionally, it asks the interviewee whether or not he or she felt the reporter properly quoted him or her in the article.

While the checks are effective at allowing editors to evaluate writers, the checks can also help improve the stories before they are even sent. If reporters are aware that an accuracy check will be sent following the publication of their story, it ensures they are held accountable for their reporting, and they will hopefully make an extra effort to ensure complete accuracy. Simultaneously, these checks should build rapport with the people the Kernel includes in stories and above all, its readership. The Kentucky Kernel wants to take every possible measure to ensure we remain a source readers can trust, and we are always looking for ways to improve as a publication. We hope these accuracy checks help us do just that. While good journalism should be the inherent goal of every publication, the Kernel will take a step further to be exceptional.

Fast-paced mentality slows productivity Life is fleeting, but this does not imply we need to live fast. American culture is obsessed with working and making every minute productive. Eventually, our energy resources will be expunged, and the country will sink into a state of exhaustion (if it’s not there already). The puritanism embedded in American culture and the US’ economic position in the global arena drives us deeper into an exhaustive cycle of working and over-scheduling. CASSIDY This productivity addiction is characterisHERRINGTON tically American, and, until we recognize its Kernel implications, rising economic powers will columnist rapidly exceed the US. Economics aside, the emotional and psychological state of American culture suffers from energy output. Indicators of America’s over-exertion are the multitude of anti-stress, pro-productivity remedies recommended in adver-

tisements, such as sleep aids, Adderall or spongy mattresses. But we have failed to unearth the root of the weed depleting our resources: associating productivity with happiness. Even our weekends keep us overbooked and over-stimulated. I know students who went to Keeneland, the football game and the bars — all in one day. While making a marathon of fun may seem like the appropriate remedy for a week of grueling routine and drudgery, it is pushing us further into a cycle of fatigue and estrangement from ourselves. I include myself in this flawed mentality. When I have a full day before me, I cram one activity after another, and the moment my head hits the pillow I am defeated from exhaustion. Here’s the appropriate solution: slow down and do everything in moderation. When possible, enjoy life one element at a time. Sip slower. Turn off the noise. Take a siesta. Life is short, but sometimes, less is more. Cassidy Herrington is a journalism and international studies junior. E-mail cherrington@kykernel.com.

Fans can respect Cats’ efforts, be hopeful for future

The UK men’s ice hockey team continues its undefeated season at 7-0-0. The Cool Cats have claimed recent victories over the University of Louisville and the University of Cincinnati.

Cool Cats scrap, remain unbeaten By Mills Armbruster sports@kykernel.com

The UK men’s ice hockey team had its first home game in two weeks Saturday night as it took on the Cincinnati Bearcats at the Lexington Ice Center. The Cool Cats battled through an extended weekend schedule as they traveled to Louisville to face the Cardinals on Thursday and to the University of Cincinnati to take on the Bearcats on Friday. They returned home Saturday night to battle UC in front of their home fans. “We started running away with the game in Louisville Thursday night,” UK head coach Rob Docherty said. “We started losing our concentration until they scored and we realized we need to play our best against every hockey team. It was good to have a little bit of travelling in there before a home competition on Saturday.” UK (7-0-0) came out of the weekend without a loss and remains undefeated on the season. The Cats outscored their weekend opponents 3614 combined as they punished Louisville 17-2 and routed UC twice with scores of 7-4 on Friday and 12-8 on Saturday. “You couldn’t ask for anything more than to be un-

defeated,” senior forward Taylor Vit said. “Teams will try to play their best now knowing that we haven’t lost yet and the games will just get harder and harder. It will give us a chance to get better.” After trailing 8-7 in the third period in Saturday night’s contest against UC, UK bounced back with four unanswered goals. Junior forward Michael Getz accounted for three of the four goals as he racked up a hat trick for

the game. “Cincinnati started playing real physical with us in the third period Friday night,” sophomore forward Dylan Rohar said. “They carried their physicality into Saturday night’s game and kind of took away our concentration. It was a big wake-up call for us.” The Cool Cats now look ahead to the American Collegiate Hockey Association Showcase in Youngstown, Ohio, this weekend.

“We get to play good teams that we don’t usually play,” Vit said. “It’s a great opportunity to show we can play and to impress the rankings committee.” The ACHA Showcase is also an opportunity to see how the team matches up to the other teams that aren’t on their schedule. “Usually only the better teams in the conference are invited,” Rohar said. “Some aren’t on our schedule so we don’t have the chance to play them during the season. It gives us the chance to see where are team is at.” A stretch of away games now lies ahead for the Cats as they will face Illinois State, Temple University, Siena College and Penn State before their next home game. “We just have to be prepared to play on the road,” Vit said. “We have to be ready to play just like we do back home. If we can play like we’re home, we can find ourselves with some quality road wins.” The schedule will only become more difficult as the season progresses. Docherty believes the Cats are prepared for the task at hand. “We’re 7-0,” Docherty said. “We’re the team to beat from here on out. We have to win the road games, and we’re ready for the challenge.”

A team can only do so much to succeed when it’s playing the No. 8 football team in the nation. Saturday, UK did all it could. T h e Cats played top-25-type football CHANDLER against the HOWARD second-best Kernel program columnist they face this season, but the clock struck zero before they had a chance to complete their comeback. The thought between fans, players and coaches alike: “We just ran out of time.” It’s that simple. Despite the final tally displaying Auburn ahead by three points, everyone, including head coach Joker Phillips, knew UK competed as tough it could when it was asked to do so. “My heart aches for these guys. They played their hearts out,” Phillips said. “We asked them to come in and prepare like champions… and we got there. Our guys played hard, played inspired, played with emotion… I asked them to leave everything on the field and they did it.” Phillips couldn’t say enough about his team postgame, and understandably so. Admittedly, I don’t know what a scouting report looks like, but Auburn’s quarterback Cam Newton’s report likely noted (in bold) that he is kind of good. If UK paid more attention to that fact in the first half, it may have found itself the victor Saturday. Both sides of the ball saw success for UK, especially its second-half defense. The team did a good job of containing the majority of the Tigers’ playmakers (except for Newton, of course), causing confusion in Auburn’s backfield and forcing fumbles in critical positions. But too few balls bounced the Cats’ way, and such is the game of football. For the first time in a long time, fan support was booming for the home team. The chants, the cheering, the applause (and the not leaving early) — it was all perhaps the driving force behind the improved play of the Cats. Commonwealth Stadium will need to see the 70,000+ attendance number again next week if the Big Blue Nation wants to see similar success. One burning question regards UK’s jovial play against the top-10 opponent it faced in Auburn in contrast to the relaxed efforts supporters saw against Florida and Ole Miss at times. The team periodically looked to be defeated before the final tick of the clock. The Cats seemed to lack consistency, but Saturday

Earning credit at Disney World By Chanley Rose features@kykernel.com

Internship experience is one way to boost a resume, and one opportunity is making “dreams come true” for UK students. The Disney College Program offers paid internships to UK students at either Walt Disney World in Florida or Disneyland in California. “Students can maintain their status as a full time student,” Cindy Edwards, Disney College Program contact at the James W. Stuckert Career Center said. Edwards said the ability to maintain student status and while working for Disney has advantages to students for various reasons, and is especially useful to those students who wish to stay covered under a parent’s health care insurance. Edwards explained that students’ credit hours vary for

the program.

Noel said he learned how big companies run through the program. He explained that the internship also exposed him to individuals from a vast array of cultures, because tourists and employees come from all over the world. “I think it definitely made me aware of language barriers,” Noel said. “I had to learn how to communicate nonverbally.” All current college students can apply for a Disney College Program internship online at (Disneycollegeprogram.com). The application process is currently under way for the spring session.

proved a bit of change for the hometown team. The notion flowing between viewers was that Auburn would give the ball back to the Cats one way or another in the closing moments of Saturday’s contest. But the Tigers’ 19-play, 86yard drive that consumed the final 7:22 of the game was too much for UK and its fans. It was simply good scheming by Auburn — the Cats could do nothing. “There was not a doubt in my mind that we would get them stopped and our offense moving the ball,” Phillips said. “There was no doubt in my mind that we were going to win this game.” The valiant effort in the loss leaves fans hopeful for the upcoming weeks, though.

With South Carolina coming to Lexington next Saturday, the Cats will have another opportunity to play giant killers against the Gamecocks, though they will undoubtedly be buzzing after knocking off Alabama this weekend. Win or no win, this week and next, it is clear UK is playing to prevail. The Cats are putting themselves through tougher workouts each week, and it is beginning to show. The pieces of the puzzle are coming together, and once the stars align (which they may next week), UK could be a dangerous team at a decisive point in the season. Chandler is a journalism sophomore.
