What the future holds for UK players By Aaron Smith asmith@kykernel.com
“It just ends. It’s done.” — UK head coach John Calipari, on a season-ending loss. With a loss in the NCAA Tournament, the entire season momentarily crashes down. “Falls off a cliff,” as Calipari put it. Sure, there will be plenty of reflection. But the months-long buildup has an abrupt climax, one that came too soon for UK.
As soon as UK’s season officially ended with a 56-55 loss to Connecticut in the Final Four, the questions began in the locker room, asking about next year even as the players sat disappointed on their locker room chairs. The three star freshmen were all asked about the NBA and whether they would still be at UK next year. All three said their focus was this year only. “I don’t know,” Brandon Knight said. “I can’t tell you about
the future.” “I’m not thinking about that right now,” Doron Lamb said. “I don’t know,” Terrence Jones said. “It’s the last game this season. I’m not worried about NBA stuff right now.” Knight and Jones project as lottery picks, and Lamb is considered a late first round to early second round selection. DeAndre Liggins said he would be evaluating his professional options.
“Right now I’m just focused on my academics, my family, my child and my girl,” Liggins said. “But when that time comes, I’ll talk with my family and Coach Cal and go from there.” Harrellson now has a professional future to strive for. He was invited to the Portsmouth Invitational, a scouting opportunity for seniors. “Work hard, get better and get to the next level,” Harrellson said was his focus for the summer.
“Hopefully I can make a living for me and my family.” Darius Miller was not asked about his future plans. The coaches, too, now face a shift. No more opponents to prepare for. “We just went six months with no days off,” Calipari said. “We also went to Canada, so that’s another three weeks. And now it just ends. So all the coaches out there, they know what I’m saying. It’s a tough deal.”
EKU, Centre apply Student center Sbarro remains open after bankrupcy to host 2012 debate By Jarrod Thacker By Alison Huddleston news@kykernel.com
On Monday, fast food pizza chain Sbarro Inc. filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy following rising food prices and the bankruptcies of other fast-food chains during the economic downturn. According to the New York Times, Sbarro is working on restructuring its debt, reducing it by $195 million and will emerge from bankruptcy as a stronger business. Still, with more than1,000 Sbarro locations worldwide, what does this mean for the future of
UK’s popular Sbarro in the Student Center? “I’d be moderately upset if Sbarro closed down,” said Erik Bentley, a junior psychology and Japanese major. “It’s just so good and a lot of people love it.” Sbarro Inc. will continue normal store operations during bankruptcy proceedings, and though going completely out of business seems unlikely due to their restructuring plan, some students have hope for a new food chain in the Student Center. “I don’t really eat at Sbarro that much, so I would like the option of
getting something new,” junior Russian major Ross Cowling said. For the many students who frequent Sbarro, the UK Dining Services said it has no plans for changing the status of the pizza shop in the Student Center. “The Student Center Sbarro will not close,” Scott Henry, executive director of Dining Services, said in an e-mail. “If Sbarro closes any stores, it will be company-operated stores. As a franchise operation, we do not contribute to Sbarro’s debt load.”
Music festival coming to Ky. By Gabrielle Dudgeon news@kykernel.com
Kentucky students have an opportunity to be involved in a music festival celebration to remember their roots, celebrate the present and have hope for the future. On September 1, the Jubilo Music and Arts Festival will open its gates for the first annual festival to music lovers across Kentucky. The three-day music festival will host local bands on a 300 acre farm in Richmond, Ky., off of I-75. Jubilo founder and creator Robyn Baker plans on making this grass-roots event a memorable, fun and entertaining event. “I have fallen in love with music festival production,” Baker said. “The opportunity came for this festival to happen, and it was perfect.” Proceeds from the event will fund a program that will provide college scholarships and other educational assistance to students from Kentucky’s 54 counties in

Two institutions of higher education in Kentucky have submitted applications to be considered a host site for a 2012 U.S. Presidential debate. Centre College, located in Danville, Ky., and Eastern Kentucky University (EKU), which is located in Richmond, Ky., are now among ten other colleges that are potential venues for the political discussions, according to the Commission on Presidential Debates (CPD). The deadline for applying to host a debate was March 31. Dr. Clarence Wyatt, Chief Plan-
ning Officer and Special Assistant to the President at Centre College, expressed how important it is to be able to demonstrate that your facilities are capable of meeting the requirements that the Commission outlines. “It’s not much of an exaggeration in saying that there are a million details that have to be addressed… it’s not a matter of turning on the lights and opening the door,” Wyatt said. “It requires a tremendous amount of preparation.” Some of the requirements that the CPD outlines include an air conditioned debate hall that would house at least 17,000, being in proximity of See EKU on page 2
Going without shoes TOMS promotes day of awareness By Ellen Baker news@kykernel.com
Students will walk across campus barefoot Tuesday in participation with One Day Without Shoes, sponsored by TOMS shoes. The event is held worldwide to help spread the awareness for the millions of kids who go without shoes every day by going barefoot for 24 hours. Sabrina Hounshell, President of the TOMS Shoes Campus Club, hopes students can gain insight to what it’s like to walk barefoot all day over different terrains and gain a better understanding of how important it is to have shoes. Tomorrow’s Shoes (TOMS) is a show company out of Santa Monica, Calif. that started the One Day Without Shoes event in 2006. TOMS practices a One for One campaign which will donate a brand new pair of shoes to a child in need with every pair of TOMS shoes purchased. Donations are custom made and delivered to children in the U.S., South America, Africa and Asia in some of

the neediest regions. “While going the entire 24 hours without shoes is admirable, it’s understandable that this cannot be done for health and safety reasons in all buildings,” Hounshell said. “If you have to wear shoes and you have TOMS, wear them! If you don’t, go as many hours without shoes as you can and are able to. Committing to doing it at all is what One Day Without Shoes is all about.” If you plan on participating in One Day Without Shoes, Hounshell said there are no major safety concern, but be aware of your surroundings when going barefoot and carry a pair of shoes with you in case somewhere becomes too hazardous to go barefoot. “People should participate because One Day Without Shoes is a simple way to raise awareness about a global issue,” Hounshell said. “By going barefoot you become a social activist, and that’s in itself a cool thing to accomplish by just taking off your shoes.” For more information on the event, log onto www.TOMS.com.

EKU Continued from page 1 at least 3,000 hotel rooms located within 30 minutes from the host site and a media parking lot that has a capacity of at least 500 passenger vehicles, among other specifications. Centre will hold their potential debate in their Norton Center for the Arts, in Newlin Hall, their largest theatre, which seats 1400 people. In 2000, Centre College hosted the Vice Presidential debate between Dick Cheney and Joseph Lieberman. “Having done this before is a tremendous asset,” Wyatt said. Though this would be the first U.S. Presidential debate that EKU has held, they do not have to do without some experienced help. Debra Hoskins, executive director of the EKU Center for the Arts, was Director of Programs at the Norton Center during the 2000 Vice Presidential debate. She is one of six people at EKU who have worked with Presidential debates as professionals. Hoskins said EKU was
able to complete its application process, which typically takes 2-3 months, in less than two weeks because EKU’s campus is already readily accessible. “We may be a new site applying for the debate, but (the CPD) seems to like to take it to new sites each year,” Hoskins said. EKU is building a new state- of- the- art structure, the EKU Center for the Arts, to serve as a venue for their potential debate. Photos of the projected site can be found at www.ekucenter.com.
Tom Harris, associate vice president for external affairs, affirms that UK currently has no plans to host a U.S. presidential debate due to the strain that such an undertaking would place on the campus, “…although clearly the university has been privileged to serve as host to a number of wonderful speakers and civic and political leaders.” The Commission on Presidential Debates will visit these locations from April through June, and decisions will be made in early fall.
The following have submitted applications to host a 2012 general election debate: •Belmont University (Nashville, TN) • Centre College (Danville, KY) • Dominican University of California (San Rafael, CA) • Eastern Kentucky University (Richmond, KY) • Hofstra University (Hempstead, NY) • Indiana University (Bloomington, IN) • Lynn University (Boca Raton, FL) • Saint Mary's College of California (Moraga, CA) • The Richard Stockton College of New Jersey (Pomona, NJ) • University of Denver (Denver, CO) • Wake Forest University (Winston-Salem, NC) • Washington University in St. Louis (St. Louis, MO)

‘Born in Wild 3D’ comes to IMAX By Roger Moore McClatchy
A large-format (IMAX) nature film of the type normally seen in museums and science centers, "Born to be Wild 3D" celebrates the efforts of two intrepid women, half a world apart, who rescue orphaned animals and return them to the wild. This is very much "a fairy tale," as Morgan Freeman narrates. Director David Lickley ("Jane Goodall's Wild Chimpanzees") and his crew follow Birute Galdikas, a researcher on Borneo who evolved from studying orangutans to saving them. Their habitat is being destroyed to make way for vast palm-oil plantations. Her team picks up the orangutans, some of them pets, and teaches them what they need to know to return to the jungle. Human staffers become mothers to the orphaned ones, feeding, bonding and singing lullabies to them, keeping just enough distance to let them remain "wild." Once the apes are old enough, they're taken to a national park and released. Daphne Sheldrick has been doing something similar in Kenya with elephants orphaned because their moms have ivory tusks.
Horoscope To get the advantage, check the day's rating: 10 is the easiest day, 0 the most challenging. Aries (March 21-April 19) — Today is an 8 — New profits become available. Shopping for household items becomes a top priority. Pay attention to your creative drive, and act on it. Follow a stronger leader. Beat your old best time. You're a champion. Taurus (April 20-May 20) — Today is an 8 — Enjoy your social media buzz. Nevertheless, faceto-face works best today. Exceed expectations. Let folks know what you want and need.

Don't be afraid to bribe a friend with something they love to take action on your behalf. Keep it short, sweet and delicious. Cancer (June 22-July 22) — Today is an 8 — Profitable opportunities beckon (if you do the
For half a century, Sheldrick has been perfecting elephant baby formula and raising whole herds of orphan elephants that return to the wild as a herd. "Born to be Wild" is a playful film using 3-D to stick an elephant's trunk or an orangutan's mug in your face. Kids will get a kick out of the orangutan that gets into a kitchen cupboard, orangutan burps and elephant soccer. When Galdikas asserts that her corner of Borneo's rain forest is her idea of "the original Garden of Eden," you just might be convinced. More hopeful and upbeat than National Geographic's current death-by-tooth-and-claw documentary "The Last Lions," "Born to be Wild 3D" has a sprinkling of tunes (Hank Williams' "Jambalaya," Mel Torme singing "Coming Home Baby") that further lighten the tone. Cute, but never insufferably so, "Born to Be Wild 3D" is best taken as the perfect film to transition your kids from animation to liveaction fare short, sweet and educational.

Take back the night, take back your life Whoever said that words have no power was mistaken. The proof? Take Back the Night 2011. I sat on the edge of my seat last Wednesday evening, digesting the testimonial words I was hearing, the words of brave women and men who had experienced some rough times. I could only wonder SHANNON why. FRAZER Why do people commit such atrocities? Why are men Kernel and women who fall victim to columnist attack often judged for what happened to them, even if they had no control over the situation? And why do
events like this, designed to bring awareness and speak out against domestic violence and abuse, have to take place before community members do anything about it? Take Back the Night 2011 was a success, but not because of any one thing that occurred at the event. In my book, the reason Take Back the Night can be called a success is by the sheer fact that it happened. We need to realize that domestic violence and abuse is a prominent issue in today’s society. As troubling as it is, more need to know about it. More people need to know that one in three college students are victims of power-based personal violence. They need to know that collegeage people — specifically, the 18 to 24 age group — experience the highest rate of stalking.
And more people need to know practical ways to recognize, intervene and prevent violence. Edgar Allen Poe got it right when he said, “Words have no power to impress in the mind without the exquisite horror of their reality.” Violence and abuse is a reality, and events like Take Back the Night enable people with ties to it to express how their realities have been affected by and because of it. These events help people to find community in the midst of tragedy, and to raise awareness among others who have faced or may face a similar fate. Speak out. Use your words, for you may just save someone’s life, and THAT is perhaps the most powerful thing of all. Shannon Frazer is a journalism senior. Email sfrazer@kykernel.com.

Replacing Cobb no easy task By Ethan Levine sports@kykernel.com
While many members of Big Blue Nation will have their eyes on new UK starting quarterback Morgan Newton this spring, a major focus for Newton and UK football head coach Joker Phillips will be a brand new receiving core, and more specifically on the tremendous hole left in the offense with the departure of do-it-all playmaker Randall Cobb for the National Football League. In 2010, Cobb led the Cats with 84 receptions for 1,017 yards. He was also second on the team in rushing yards and managed to get the ball in the end zone four different ways (three passing touchdowns, five rushing touchdowns, seven receiving touchdowns and a punt return for a score). But as Newtown takes the helm of Phillips’ offense, he remains optimistic that Cobb’s talent can be replaced in 2011. “We have Raymond Sanders and (CoShik Williams) and hopefully some (Brandon) Gainer, and we are all very excited about
those guys,” Newton said. “We still got (Matt) Roark and La’Rod (King) and Brian Adams, and we got E.J. (Fields). We got a lot of guys, and hopefully we got some freshmen that can come in after spring ball and possibly contribute. We’re excited about what we got.” While Newton is pleased with talent at the skill positions around him, the question still remains: Who will become the Cats new go-to guy on the outside this season? The leading candidate early this spring is rising-junior wideout La’Rod King. In 2010, King was third on UK’s roster in receptions (36), receiving yards (478) and receiving touchdowns (5). He will return as the Cats most battle-tested and proven wide receiver, and at 6-foot 4-inches he provides a big target on the outside to stretch the field deep and make play in the middle of the field. UK returns a few other receivers from 2010, but none have been standouts in their time as Cats. Among them are Brian Adams, who is one of the fastest players on the
team but has been splitting time this spring between playing receiver for the football team and center field for the baseball team, and Matt Roark, who has three years of experience at UK but only 18 career receptions and no touchdowns for his career. Whether one of these guys is able to step up into a starting role and be a leader on an offense littered with new faces remains to be seen. Then there are the guys who look deadly on paper but must now show it on the gridiron. First among these names is Gene McCaskill, a quick receiver with good hands who had 32 catches in his first two seasons before missing his junior year due to injury. McCaskill is an early contender for the starting job opposite La’Rod King when the Cats open their 2011 season. There is also Fields, a sophomore from Frankfort, Ky. Fields has a lot of speed and the ability to beat defensive backs off the line of scrimmage with his experience as a track athlete in high school, but like McCaskill has been plagued by injuries and has yet to catch his first
catch as a Cat. If Fields can stay healthy in 2011, the team and the coaching staff expect him to be a weapon in the passing game. With this much turnover in the offense, UK still searches for the guy who can replace Randall Cobb. As dynamic as Cobb was at UK, it may take all of these receivers together to fill his shoes. But Phillips recalled the offensive turnover after the 2007 season with the departure of quarterback Andre Woodson, and says that the team’s success the following year in 2008 can be replicated in 2011. “In 2007 we lost similar to the same amount of production,” Phillips said, “but then we come back the next year and are sixth in the league in scoring. We’ve been here before, it’s a familiar place for us. “It’s very similar that with Dickey Lyons coming back as our leading receiver now we have La’Rod King. We actually have more experience at the wide receiver position this year than we did when we came back in 2008 ... We’ve lost production before, but it’s not a concern of ours.”
Students get creative through film By Luke Glaser features@kykernel.com
While most movies shown by the Student Activities Board are big name films, fresh out of the theater or long entrenched in cinematic culture, Tuesday night’s showing will enjoy a local twist. Now in its second year, Big Blue Blockbuster gives UK students a chance to shine in the art of filmmaking. “We usually show movies that are made professionally,” Brad Elliott, Director of Cinema for SAB, said. “This is interactive and gives UK students a chance to show their work and be creative.” Elliott received eight submissions in three different categories: narrative, documentary and animation.
Submissions were required to be between two and 10 minutes, but creators had no other limitations. “There’s a lot of freedom with subject matter and technique,” Elliott said. Freshman Ben Norton, a music, Spanish and film study triple major, entered all three categories with his twin brother. They are hoping to win with their newest film, a narrative titled “Fill It.” “It’s a comedy, in a quirky and philosophical way,” Norton said. Norton, a composer, also wrote the score for all of his movies. “I hope people enjoy it,” he said. “I hope they get the themes, and I hope to find more people to collaborate with artistically.” All eight submissions were judged
on Friday, and the audience will get the final say when they view and judge the films. The winners of each category will receive a Flip UltraHD video camera and gift cards to local movie theaters, among other things. Aside from the prizes, Norton is glad for the chance to exhibit his skill, and to share the film genre with an audience and other filmmakers. “Film is the king of art, a superlative art,” Norton said, “It combines visual, musical and theatrical arts into one experience.” Elliott encourages all to attend at 8 p.m., in Worsham Theatre. “(They) aren’t professionals,” he said, “and they don’t have to be. A lot of these movies are really good.”
