CentrePointe review delayed 60 days

Etfl'” Dam
news®kykernelcom

The design for CentrePointe. the proposed devel-
opment for downtown Lexington, will not go under
review for another 60 days. the Courthouse Area De-
sign Review Board unanimously agreed at a meeting
yesterday.

The meeting lasted less than 15 minutes but drew
a crowd of more than 500 people at the Lexington-
Fayette Urban County Govemment Center. Only
speakers and media personnel were allowed in the
council chambers. The rest of the crowd gathered in
the ballroom on the first floor and spilled out onto the
sidewalk outside the building.

The plan to change Lexington's skyline by build-
ing a hotel skyscraper on the Rosenberg Block has

spurred controversy since it was officially proposed
March 4. The block — located between the comers
of West Main and South Upper streets and West Vine
and South Limestone streets — is currently home to
popular bars and music venues such as The Dame.
Mia‘s and Buster’s.

Joe Rosenberg. who owns most of the block. ap-
plied for demolition permits for buildings along
South Limestone Street on March 24.

On March 26. the Division of Historic Preserva-
tion put a 30-day hold on the demolition pemiits to
determine if any buildings have historical signifi-
cance.

The 60—day hold on reviewing the design plans
for the new building does not have an impact on the
proposed demolitions.

Darby Turner. the attomey representing (‘MML

the architecture and design firm planning the pro—
posed development. spoke about the need to post-
pone the hearing for 60 days. It would be better for
everyone involved in this project to take the extra
time and come to some kind of agreement. Darby
said.

Preserve Lexington. a non-profit group working
to preserve the downtown area. is excited about the
postponement because it gives the community more
time for dialogue wjth the architects. said Jessica
Case. a local attomey and a volunteer with Preserve
Lexington.

“Preserve Lexington wants creative infill. not de—
molishing what we already have." Case said.

FRANKFORT _. A budget cut—
ting higher education‘s budget 6
percent passed both the House and
Senate yesterday. moving the state‘s
$19 billion budget one step closer to
completion.

The budget cut higher education
funding by 3 percent on top of a 3
percent cut enacted by Gov. Steve
Beshear for the fiscal year ending in
July. It first passed the Senate in a
35—3 vote and passed the House in a
74—2] vote.

Unlike the one passed by the
House nearly three weeks ago. this
budget contained no increases in the
cigarette or gas taxes. Instead of tax
hikes. the state would attempt to fill
a $900 million shortfall by taking
more from the state lottery revenues
each year. restructuring the state's
debt and not replacing about 3.400
state workers after they retire this
year.

Sen. Emesto Scorsonc. one of
the three senators who voted against
the bill. said the budget that passed
last night neglects vital state ser-
vices including education and hu
man sen ices.

“All across Kentucky. students
are studying for exams and writing
term papers. work products that
show knowledge." said Scorsone.

Burley B. Thomas regretted
his decision to dress up as a
faun when he attended the annu-
al Beaux Arts Ball two years
ago.

The ball. which always
takes place in the spring. was
held in a parking garage on a
particularly chilly night. and
Thomas was left shivering from
the cold.

“Throwing a jacket on would
have ruined the outfit." said
Thomas. a Bluegrass Communi-
ty and Technical College student.
“So I just had to deal with it and
dance my cold butt away.“

This year's Beaux Arts Ball
looks like it will be held in fair—
er weather, which Thomas said
he is thankful for.

 

“(It) makes me think this
year will be at least more bear-
able for all the people who show
up wearing thongs. body glitter
and smiles." he said. “I think I
may even break some skin back
out this year."

The ball. which is sponsored
by the UK College of Design.
starts at 8:30 pm. Saturday.
This year‘s masquerade will fea-
ture live bands. two guest DJs. a
fire dancing group. a fashion
and drag show and a UK Dance
Ensemble performance. The ball
is scheduled to last until 2 am.

Some of the hall‘s biggest
attractions include the costumes
that attendees are encouraged to
make.

“At Halloween you see a lot
of store-bought. cheesy cos-
tumes." Thomas said. "but there
is a drive for everyone to make

BEAU

the Beaux Arts Ball costume a lit—
tle more original. funnier. sexier.
and by all means. much louder."

Thomas. who has attended
the ball three times. also has ad—
vice for the student worried
about what to wear.

“I was scared my first year
that my costume wasn‘t good
enough: it was simple and kind
of poorly done. but I think it
would be harder not to fit in at
the ball." he said. "If you don't
feel eccentric enough and you
want to be: rip a sleeve. get a
colored cheap wig and a match—
ing shirt: it's not hard to go all
out for something like this.“

The first Beaux Arts Ball at
UK was held in 1969 and it was
based on an architectural con—
cept originating during 19th
century France. The ball has not

Planning
takes the
pressure out
of dieting

There‘s no such thing as a perfect diet.
and there‘s no such thing as a perfect dieter.
Everyone slips up every now and then and
has a bad day or a bad week. It can be really
hard to pick yourself back up after a week of

poor choices especially
when they culminate in a
big weight gain.
Last week was a par-
ticularly bad week for
me. I got really sick
and feeling ill led
me to fall completely
off track. I ate
whatever made me
feel better. regard-
less of how good it

was for me. Once I
started feeling better, it was even harder to
get back into the habit of eating healthier.
Since I had already been “bad." it was easy
to convince myself that I'd just start again at
the beginning of the following week.

After pulling myself together Monday. I
realized that learning to recognize difficult
times and the foods associated with them
would be very helpful in preparing me when
temptation strikes.

First I sat down and mapped out my day.
I usually eat three meals. breakfast. lunch and
dinner and then I II have one or two snacks
at random points throughout the day.

So. first I covered breakfast. I rarely com-
mit dieting sins at breakfast. so breakfast gets
what we'll call a “green light." I‘m generally
uninterested in most breakfast foods. I don‘t
like bacon. I'm not a huge fan of eggs. and I
really could care less about toast. On top of
that. I‘d rather sleep than get up to cook. For
me. breakfast is as simple as throwing a
frozen dinner in the microwave. I only eat
breakfast to jumpstart my metabolism and
keep myself energized for the morning.
Knowing this. I don‘t have to think ahead
about my breakfast plans. or wony about
myself falling off the plan.

Lunch time is a "yellow light" time for
me. meaning sometimes it‘s a problem. but
not all the time. I usually can plan ahead for
lunch. because I know what I can pack with
me. and ifl don't hay e time to pack my
lunch. I know which fast food joints around
campus will make me a meal that I can have
guilt-free. Still. I have to be wary of what
would be “red light“ foods for me. like pizza
or potato chips. These are items that I know I
have a good deal of trouble controlling my»
self around. Being ready and having sonic-
thing I can munch on is really helpful if I'm
faced with those foods. because otherwise it‘s
easy to give myself permission to indulge.

Dinner is also a “yellow light.” Since I'm
always borne for dinner". I can biiy fro/en
dinners or meal kits that are easy to throw to~
gethcr. If I feel up to eating out. I already
know what I can eat at McDonald‘s. I‘a/olr‘s
or even the Chinese take-out place and still
come out guilt—free.

But after dinner is my real “red light"
time. Because I eat dinner at around " most
nights and I stay up late. it can be fiy e or six
hours between my last meal and bedtime I
get hungry at night. biit because [We used tip
most of my calories during the day. I feel
guilty about eating. This is w hen l lime to
make sure that I have no temptations in my
pantry. No Wheat Thins. no cookies. I can‘t
have anything around that would be easy to
open and eat several servings.

So in conclusion. I‘ve found that know-
ing your “green light" and "red light” times
can help prepare you for the future. If you
know you can't keep a package of ()reos
around without gorging on III or II at d time.
why would you keep them in your pantry .
Similarly. if you know dinnertimc is when
you eat the most. plan ahead to keep your
eating in check.

POP

Continued from pageABW

been held every year but has
been a mainstay for the past
decade. Since that first Beaux
Arts. it has grown to such popu-
Iarity that people have even
traveled from overseas to cele—
brate. according to the event's
official Web site.

While the ball is seen as a
forum to celebrate creativity. the
ultimate goal is to raise money
for local charities. said Kristi
Buchler. director of the Beaux
Arts Foundation.

“Each year we try to think
about who really needs the mon—
ey in the community." Buchler
said. "We try to find groups that
are based locally and have a
strong presence here."

Last year the Beaux Arts
Ball raised “4.000. For the first

time. the money was split be-
tween a local charity and College
of Design scholarships: $3,000
went to scholarships and $11,000
went to the Aids Volunteers of
Lexington. This year. the goal is
to raise 517.000 for the Hospital
Hospitality House and Bluegrass
Domestic Violence Shelter.

"The money we give to the
Hospital Hospitality House will
be for specific items. as they are
working on renovating their fa-
cilities." Buchler said. "So we'll
be working with them to choose
the areas that they most need the
money."

She said the money will
probably be split evenly between
the Hospital Hospitality House
and the Bluegrass Domestic Vio—
lence Shelter this year.

"On a base level. the ball is
about having a great time — en-
joying great music. getting
dressed up. being with friends.
all while doing some good."

Buchler said. "But it‘s also
about more than that. It's about
creativity and being avant—
garde; it's about stepping out-
side your normal self and being
a part of a spectacle: it's about
acceptance of all appearances
and lifestyles."

Attendees must be IX years
of age to enter the ball. and 2i
to drink.

Tickets are being sold on
campus in front of Pence Hall
and are $20 in advance and $30
at the door. Transptmation is
provided for $1 a person from
the UK Student Center and
Rupp Arena from 9 pm. to I]
pm.

The original venue for the
ball was disqualified because of
fire code violations found Tues-
day. A new location has yet to
be finalized. For more informa—
tion about the Beaux Arts Ball.

Tuesday 's building inspection for not having
emergency sprinklers.

The committee began looking for a new loca—
tion at I pm. Tuesday. Buchler. an interior design
senior. said she and her staff received a lot of help
from city officials. College of Design Dean
Michael Speaks. former dean and architecture pro—
fessor David Mohney. and many other people in
Lexington.

"Everybody has been sending in suggestions.
so it's really been a community effort." Buchler
said.

One of those community members was the
new venue‘s owner. Ann McBrayer. Buchler said

as soon as she told McBrayer on Tuesday that
Beaux Arts needed a new location. the president
of Kentucky Eagle Beer was detemiined to help.

Around 6:30 last night. McBrayer called
Buchler and told her that Beaux Arts could use her
warehouse. By that time. however. the Lexington
Fire Department was closed and could not check
the new location. The department would inspect
the building to make sure it meets codes this
moming. Buchler said. but until then the location
is not official.

“I‘m really relieved. but at the same time this
is our fifth venue." she said. adding that she is
half-expecting something to go wrong.

When the Beaux Arts committee finalizes the
new location. it will post flyers on campus. update
the Beaux Arts Web site (www.beaux-ans—
ball.com). and update the Beaux Arts pages on
Facebook and MySpace.
