New brews on the block CHEYENE MILLER news@kykernel.com
Ethereal Brewing co-founders Andrew Bishop and Brandon Floan were attending UK when craft beer began to play an instrumental role in their lives. “I was 19, brewing in my stovetop on State Street,” said Bishop, noting that he was able to get the materials to make beer before he was able to buy beer itself. “I’d say about three years after that is when it turned into something a little more serious.” Eight years later, in December, Floan and Bishop opened Ethereal Brewing in the Distillery District on Manchester Street. Bishop said he and Floan went to high school together and had been brewing separately until they tried each other’s beer. “We kind of realized what the other person was doing, so we decided kind of as a hobby to brew together,” Bishop said. “After a while we realized that we had to figure out what we wanted to do for a living.” Floan’s family lives in North Carolina, where craft beer is a booming industry, according to Bishop. “He was able to see how this industry
kept growing and growing, and how it had been almost untapped here in Lexington,” Bishop said. “We offer a product that people are just now getting in the habit of learning to appreciate.” Floan said he and Bishop try to make brewing an art and don’t treat it exclusively as a way to make money.
“
We’re very passionate about making the best beer we can possibly make.” BRANDON FLOAN Ethereal Brewing co-founder
“We’re very passionate about making the best beer we can possibly make,” Floan said. Both UK fans and Lexington natives, the duo said the higher prices of craft beer tend to put a limit on the number of students they see. “Craft beer is a little bit pricier than grabbing a case of Natty (Natural) Light,”
Bishop said. “The wallet dictates.” Bishop said that Ethereal has three staple drinks — their oatmeal stout, their India Pale Ale and the Belgian-style saison. Floan and Bishop both said they hope to be one of the first breweries in Lexington to have a line of sour beer, which uses brettanomyces, a type of yeast found on the skin of certain types of fruits. “They produce all sorts of non-traditional beer flavors,” Floan said. Floan said Ethereal is the only brewery in Lexington that uses a “dedicated yeast lab,” and they have a chemist that comes in and helps with the brewing process. “There’s very much a large science side to it,” Bishop said. The brewery gets about 500 to 600 customers in a given week, with 150 to 200 during the weekends, Bishop said. Beer drinkers can choose from six types of beer at Ethereal, but Floan and Bishop said they hope to bump up to seven or eight in the near future, and continue to increase the popularity of craft beer in Lexington. “We have some pretty neat ideas that we’re looking to roll out once we get our feet under us,” Bishop said.
Members of the Fayette County Board of Education will be asked to vote on whether or not to approve a campus survey to find space for the new STEAM Academy. The board could approve a $21,800 contract with Endris Engineering on March 23 to conduct a 12.2-acre survey of campus, according to a report from the Lexington Herald-Leader. The university will provide the school district with a site, and the school district will construct the building. According to the Herald-Leader, the building will probably hold up to 600 students, who will be in grades 9-12. The District facilities plan said that a building holding 600 high school students could cost about $22 million, but that amount is subject to change. The academy, which allows high school students to take high school classes while earning college credit hours from UK staff, graduate and undergraduate students, is currently located at East Sixth Street. The new academy will likely be located behind the College of Education building, with students from the college getting involved in the classes taught at the academy. The educational initiative STEM encourages heavy concentration in the fields of science, technology, engineering and math and allows students to apply engineering and critical thinking to solve real world problems. STEAM adds the fields of art and design into the equation, and acts as a partnership between UK and Fayette Public Schools. The STEAM Academy first opened in August 2013 with a class of 150 participants, according to a Fayette County Public School’s brochure, which said that the academy would increase the class size by 150 students every year until 2016. No specific date has been set for the selection of a location for the STEAM Academy or construction, according to UKNow. The program was initially funded by Next Generation Learning Challenges, which provides grants to fund learning technologies, according to UKNow. STAFF REPORT 3.13.15 | Kentucky Kernel | 3
Familiar faces in Nashville SPORTS
UK to go up against Florida for third time in 35 days JOSHUA HUFF jhuff@kykernel.com

UK center Dakari Johnson struggles against Florida’s defense at Rupp Arena on Saturday.

UK faces a familiar opponent on Friday as it opens SEC Tournament play with its second consecutive game against Florida. The Gators dispatched Alabama, 69-61, on the second day of the tournament. The win means that Florida and UK will have played each other three times in the last 35 days. It also marks the first time UK has faced the same opponent in consecutive games since the 1987-88 season. In stark contrast of Florida’s threegame sweep of UK last season, the Cats look to continue their perfect season with their own three-game sweep of the Gators. Hardly resembling last year’s Final Four team, Florida limped into the tournament with a 15-16 record, with its last loss at the
hands of UK at Rupp Arena. The Gators have virtually no shot at earning an at-large bid for the NCAA Tournament and must win the every SEC Tournament game to continue playing in the postseason. Florida, however, has the benefit of familiarity with UK. The Gators will be the only team that will have faced the Cats three times this season, and they have kept it close with the No. 1 SEC team in the last two. The difference between the teams, however, has been the play in the second half. In the first game in Gainesville, Fla., the Gators took a 30-28 lead into half, one of only six times UK has trailed or been tied at the half this season. But Florida failed to contain freshman forward KarlAnthony Towns and sophomore guard Aaron Harrison after the break, and UK
pulled out a 68-61 victory. In the most recent matchup, the Cats had a 30-27 halftime-lead over the Gators before running away with a 67-50 win behind dominant performances from freshman forward Trey Lyles and Towns. The Cats will need to be wary of Florida’s sophomore forward Dorian FinneySmith after he went 4-for-9 from the three in route to a 23-point win over Alabama. Smith also scored double-digit points in both games against UK, going 5-for-11 from the floor for 12 points at Rupp, and 6for-10 for 16 points in Gainesville. With Flordia’s inability to control UK’s post players, the Gators must find a way to create open looks from the perimeter to have a chance to defeat the nation’s No. 1 ranked defense and put a stop to the Cats’ historic undefeated run.
Cats’ bat hot for victory SPORTS
UK looks to build up 11-game winning streak in S.C.
streak going into the weekend. Junior left fielder Ka’ai Tom has seen the ball exceptionally well lately, hitting for the cycle in Tuesday’s 91 win over Cincinnati. He was the first Cat to hit for the cycle since 1994. Freshman Riley Mahan has also stepped up for UK recently, making four consecutive starts at third base after regu-
lar-starter Evan White missed three games due to an injury. White has since returned to the lineup and played as the designated hitter against Cincinnati. Head coach Gary Henderson said Mahan is starting to settle into the lineup. “He has been doing a very nice job,” Henderson said. “The at bats are dramatically more comfortable for him and more aggressive than they were the first few weeks. The last two weeks have been very good for Riley.” The starting pitching has also been solid for the Cats. Juniors Kyle Cody and Dustin Beggs, along with sophomore Zack Brown, all pitched at least seven innings in last weekend’s series against Northern Kentucky. Henderson said he is pleased with Brown’s strength in recent games. “He’s doing a nice job,” Henderson said. “He’s getting better every time out. His last start was a great day for him in terms of sustaining concentration and being able to find a different approach after going through the lineup three times.” While Henderson said that UK doesn’t have weekend starters in place yet, it is expected that the trio will compete for the roles. The Gamecocks (14-3) enter the weekend as winners of their last seven games. Senior first baseman Kyle Martin leads the team in hitting with a .368 batting average and has 21 hits, three doubles and three home runs on the year. Junior left-hander Jack Wynkoop is among the top pitchers in the conference. He has a 2.00 earned run average and a 3-1 record through four starts this season. First pitch is set for 7 p.m. on Friday at Carolina Stadium.
Louisville at the Greensboro Coliseum. The fourth-seeded Tar Heels advanced to the ACC tournament semifinals, where they'll play topseeded Virginia on Friday. Brice Johnson, the junior forward, led UNC with 22 points and fellow big man Kennedy Meeks, whose status for Thursday was in doubt after he sat out UNC's victory against Boston College on Wednesday while recovering from an illness, finished with nine points.
Meeks was instrumental during a key 8-0 run that turned the game in the Tar Heels' favor late in the second half. His layup with a little less than five minutes to play gave the Tar Heels a 62-57 lead — their largest. The victory brings to an end to what had been a troubling trend of second-half collapses for the Tar Heels. That trend began in an overtime loss on Jan. 31 at Louisville, which erased an 18-point second-half deficit to win that game.

GREENSBORO, N.C. — This time North Carolina didn't fade during a tense second half, with the pressure mounting. And this time, the Tar Heels' most important post players didn't go missing when UNC most needed them. UNC on Thursday in the ACC tournament was the stronger team down the stretch, the more efficient team, in a 70-60 victory against
Arizona tops California in Pac-12 Tournament JEFF FARAUDO San Jose Mercury News (TNS)
LAS VEGAS — Just in case it didn't have a vivid memory of its 39-point loss to Arizona just one week before, the Cal basketball team was treated to a video replay on the eve of its Pac-12 tournament rematch with the Wildcats. “We didn't give up like we did the last time,” guard Jabari Bird said. It was a more competitive Cal team that took the floor Thursday at the MGM Grand Garden Arena, and for 20 minutes the Bears were right there. But the top-seeded Wildcats flexed their considerable muscle in the second half and breezed to a 73-51 victory.
“
We weren’t just going to let them come out in this game and step all over us.” JABARI BIRD Golden Bears guard
“We watched the tape of Tucson last night, and the main thing is we didn't really fight and compete,” Jordan Mathews said. “I thought we did a great job of competing today.” Down two points with 2 minutes left in the first half, the Bears (18-15) trailed only 33-30 when Bird hit a 3-pointer to open the second half. From then on, the game belonged to the Wildcats (29-3). Arizona turned Cal mistakes into easy baskets and led 46-32 with 15:50 left. The margin didn't grow larger until the final five minutes, but the Bears got closer than 10 points. The fifth-ranked Wildcats, hoping to win their first Pac-12 tournament title since 2002, advance to Friday's 6:10 p.m. semifinal against UCLA. Cal, which began the day rated No. 99 by the NCAA's RPI computer, awaits a possible call from the National Invitation Tournament or, more likely, the College Basketball Invitational. 3.13.15 | Kentucky Kernel | 5

Suicide attempt survivor advocates honesty
BY PENNY SCHMITZ news@kykerenel.com
Photographer, writer, and suicide attempt survivor and awareness advocate Dese’Rae L. Stage spoke to students and faculty Thursday evening about her suicide awareness project, “Live Through This.” The UK Counseling Center attended the event in case any content triggered an emotional response. “Live Through This” is a collection of portraits and stories of suicide attempt survivors. Through the stories, survivors are encouraged to share their experiences publicly, aiming to reduce the silence, stigma and shame associated with suicide. “We (suicide attempt survivors) are anonymous, stripped of our identity. We are check boxes on surveys. I wanted to bring it (suicide) back to the flesh … If we can’t put numbers to the faces then why would we care,” Stage said. “We always ask the question, ‘Why?’ when it is too late. Attempt survivors know the answers.”
An effective way to confront a person with suicidal ideation is through clear, concise language, according to Stage. “I want us to have a voice, I want for us to control our own stories,” Stage said. “I

UK to give $300,000 to group aiding Eastern Kentucky
Education, healthcare are priorities
UK announced a $300,000 partnership on Tuesday with a group created to aid Eastern Kentucky. Shaping Our Appalachian Region (SOAR) was established in 2013 by Gov. Steve Beshear and Congressman Hal Rogers to develop more healthcare and education in the region. According to a report from LEX 18, SOAR executive director Jared Arnett said UK is SOAR’s first presenting sponsor. “The University of Kentucky’s Corporate Partnership comes at a pivotal time for Appalachian Kentucky,” Arnett said on the SOAR website. “We are not simply the University of Kentucky. We are the University for Kentucky,” said UK President Eli Capilouto on the website. “But we have a particularly 6 | Timeout | 3.13.15
close relationship and responsibility with and for communities throughout the Appalachian region.” According to LEX 18, UK has about 125 research projects in Appalachia which are focusing on the region’s chief health concerns; cancer, heart disease, pulmonary disease, strokes and unintentional deaths. “Improving the state’s health is not a task that can be accomplished in months,” said Lt. Gov. Crit Luallen on SOAR’s website. “But through partnerships with SOAR and the University of Kentucky, we now have the opportunity to truly change the future of Kentucky by cementing the health reforms created by the Governor in a way that has a lasting and stable impact.” STAFF REPORT

Bolin noted that in extreme cases concerning suicide, like someone having a gun and making suicidal claims, the appropriate response is to call 911. When a student enters Frazee Hall for the initial treatment, an evaluation is completed. The first appointment at the UKCC is an Initial Assessment during which a clinician gathers information from the student client in order to make a recommendation. “Our staff are good listeners who are very aware of the stresses and transitions faced by college students, able to provide support, problem-solving, psychotherapy and/or referrals as appropriate,” Bolin wrote.

Ferguson police shot during protest NEWS
St. Louis Post-Dispatch STAFF REPORT
FERGUSON, Mo. _ The Missouri Highway Patrol and St. Louis County Police will take over Ferguson protest security Thursday night after two police officers were shot outside the police department there early Thursday morning. Ferguson police will continue to handle routine policing services in the city, St. Louis County Police said in a statement Thursday afternoon. The two officers shot early Thursday are expected to survive, St. Louis County Police Chief Jon Belmar said. They were treated at BarnesJewish Hospital and released Thursday, though one still had a bullet lodged behind his ear. Belmar called the shooting as protests outside the department dwindled an "ambush" on police. At least three shots were fired at police just after midnight as police faced protesters who had gathered outside the police station, police said. On Thursday morning, officers swarmed a
home in Ferguson in their search for those responsible for the shooting of the two police officers. Tactical officers surrounded a brick bungalow about four blocks west of the police department. Officers went in with dogs about 9:30 a.m. A neighbor said he saw police bring two men out of the home. The woman who neighbors say rents the home was also brought out in handcuffs. Police said they were questioning the three but they were not under arrest. Martez Little, 25, of north St. Louis County, said he was in a car Wednesday night near the Ferguson police station with the woman taken into custody Thursday. Little said they witnessed the shooting. "Bullets were flying past us," Little said. "We heard them whistling by and saw two officers drop to their knees. The shots were coming off a hill but we didn't see nobody shooting." He said he went to the protest because he still has questions about the shooting of Michael Brown, but called the shooting of the officers wrong.

University of Washington fraternity accused of racism by black students
BY KATHERIN LONG AND LEWIS KAMB The Seattle Times SEATTLE _ Black students at the University of Washington are alleging that members of a fraternity called AfricanAmerican protesters "apes" as they marched past the frat house during a campus Black Lives Matter protest last month. But the president of Sigma Alpha Epsilon says the fraternity has conducted its own investigation and does not believe its members were involved. A group of young men allegedly made "grossly insensitive comments and rude gestures aimed at the marchers," said Denzil Suite, vice president for Student Life. UW officials are asking anyone with photos, recordings or videos of the incident to email them to the 8 | Timeout | 3.13.15
Student Life office at OFSL@uw.edu. The UW's Black Student Union has asked for a formal apology from the SAE fraternity for allegedly calling AfricanAmerican students names, booing and making obscene gestures during the Feb. 25 march, which was organized to raise awareness about racism. Student Dirir Abdullahi said he heard several white men shouting racial slurs from the front yard of the Sigma Alpha Epsilon fraternity house while he and hundreds of others marched by. Zane Suarez, another student who participated in the march, said he witnessed four or five men on the second-floor balcony of the fraternity who were booing and making obscene gestures. But some students who participated said that while they observed some men near the fraternity acting disrespectfully toward marchers, they
aren't certain they were fraternity members. In a statement, Michael Hickey, president of the UW's SAE chapter, said SAE members also heard the offensive comments, but that they were coming from nonmembers who were standing on the sidewalk near the chapter house. He said he did not have any information about students yelling from the balcony. Hickey said the fraternity members were "concerned and shocked by these allegations, as we pride ourselves in the diversity of our chapter membership and racism is against the moral ethics of our local and national organization." He said the fraternity is committed to working with others "to help hold those accountable for their offensive behavior on February 25." The alleged incident occurred as the protest march moved onto the UW campus at 17th Avenue Northeast and Northeast
45th Street, directly across from the SAE fraternity house. "There were several students who were screaming out loud, 'You apes, why are you here on our campus,' " said Abdullahi, 21, a senior majoring in neurobiology. Several other protesters also heard the slurs, Abdullahi and others said Wednesday, but the march continued to Gerberding Hall, where protesters delivered demands to the UW president's office. The incident occurred when the march — which numbered hundreds of students and briefly shut down traffic in the University District — had dwindled to about 100. SAE was the only fraternity that marchers walked past. Members of the Black Student Union said they planned to meet with UW interim President Ana Marie Cauce on Thursday about the allegations.
