KENTUCKY KE NEL

 

By Blair Thomas
news kvkernel.com

Nobody likes a bad report card. and
Kentucky is pleased to see one that re-
flects improvement.

Long-temi gains in three of live ar-
eas in a new national study by the Na-
tional Center for Public Policy and
Higher Education are good news em-
phasizing progress, said Sue Patrick,
communications director for tin Ken—
tucky Council on Postsecondary Educa-
tron.

“We think this reflects the progress
that we have made since the 1997 high-
er—education reforms." Patrick said.
“But it underscores the state‘s need to

raise education attainment to the na-

tional average.“

The report, Measuring Up 2006:
The National Report Card on Higher
Education. gave Kentucky a C- when it
comes to the improvement in preparing
students to succeed in college.

Increased enrollment across the
state brought the participation grade up
to a B-. and the state received a C+ in

CELEBRATING 35 YEARS OF INDEPENDENCE

State schools improve re

benefits. which measures economic
gains by those who have four—year
bachelor degrees. according to the re-
port.

Kentucky failed in the category of

affordability.

“Our Top 20 Business Plan reflects
an increased commitment to providing
financial aid to our students,“ said UK
spokesman Jay Blanton. "The continu—
ing support depends on three things: the
continued support of the state legisla-
tion. the university's efficiency with its
resources and continued success of pri—

 

vate fundraising."

Blanton said that Kentucky is not
the only state that struggles with afford-
ability.

“This is an issue that must be ad—
dressed across the country." Blanton
said. "We hope our $3 million increase
iii funding for scholarships at UK will
help do our part in taking steps towards
improvement."

The state remained at a C + in com-
pletion. a category that measures gradu-

ation rates. According to the report.

Kentucky has shown little improvement

port card

in the percentage of students who earn
a degree in six years or less.

"A lot of these categories go hand
in hand." Patrick said. “We have to
maintain affordability to increase col-
lege participation. to keep them en—
rolled and to assure they leave with a
degree in hand."

Patrick emphasized the importance
of improving these grades in the next
few years.

"These grades directly reflect the
future of our state," Patrick said.

riews@kvkerrte rn'r

Methamphetamine doesn‘t just harm its users
w it also puts their children‘s lives in danger. two
UK professors said in a television appearance.

Two UK professors were scheduled to appear
on the A&E Classroom channel to discuss the issue
in a two—part series called “A Question of Life or
Meth." Part one aired yesterday moming. and part
two aired this morning at 4.

Dr. Susan Pollack. a pediatrician and professor
in UK‘s pediatrics department. and Dr. Jim Cecil. a
dentist and professor in the College of Dentistry.
were both featured in the series.

Pollack said she appeared on the show to edu-
cate people on the harmful effects of meth.

“It‘s a significant problem." she said. “
are cooking it in their homes."

Her focus is pzu‘ticularly on children. who could
be unintentionally harmed as a result of parents
who are making meth in their homes.

“Children are in big danger of being blown up
or poisoned." Pollack said.

Pollack wants people to understand the prob
lems and know what they can do to help.

She said she and her colleagues were contacted
by A&E because they have been working on fol
lowing kids who have been exposed to meth.

Pollack said a grant enabled the formation of
the Drug and Endangered Child Training Network.
a program coordinated by Holly Hopper. a member
of the Medical Research Council and coordinator
for substance abuse issues in the UK College of
Agriculture.

The Appalachian Regional Commission and
Unite funded the program in order to help children
who are affected by methamphetamine use.

“We're trying to ensure Kentucky children get
the evaluation and treatment they need." Pollack
said.

Cecil’s focus is also on helping children and
making sure people become more aware of the
problem.

He said the use of the drug is a big problem in
the state and elsewhere for a variety of reasons.

“It's cheap. It‘s available. It's very addictive."
Cecil said.

He also wants people to realize that it is sortie—
thing that can affect pretty much anyone in the
state. although it is a bigger problem in some areas.

“It's probably more prevalent in the westem
part of the state." Cecil said.

He said the substance was imported from the
West but is becoming more and more of a problem
further east as well.

Cecil said his main goal is to help children.

“My concem is the welfare of the children." he
said. “That's my interest."

Lecture series begins with exploration ofbrain development

B_yljeuther Gehrig

newsakykernei com

Dr. Otto Kaak know; that brain development
in children is linked to the level of attachment they
develop with their parents A and he wants to
share that with UK students.

“The quality of the attachment between the
child and parent or caregiver affects the way the
child's brain grows." said Kaak. psychiatry profes-
sor. co—director of UK CATS (Comprehensive As-
sessment and Treatment Service) and a child and
adolescent psychiatrist.

This is why Kaak will be presenting the first

mmmwmam.

lecture in a series of four sponsored by UK's In-
terdisciplinary Human Development Institute.

The main objective of Kaak‘s speech. titled
"Early Brain Development and Attachment is to
infomi participants of ways to provide preventive
guidance while caring for children. Kaak said.

The speech. which takes place today front l2
to 2 pm. at the Human Development Institute in
the Mineral Industries Building. is open to the
public. but especially targets those who work with
children or who are interested in doing so in the
future.

Students will benefit from hearing Kaak's
commentary because he will address the iriiplicrr
tions of typical and atypical brain development.

s.lltl seminar crxirdinator Stephanie Adams.

“These seminars are a wonderful related-learn
ing experience for anyone interesting in the hur
man sciences." Adams said.

The four lectures in this series are given by ex
perts in their fields or are personal coninientaries
from those with disabilities.

Over the past six years. the IHDI has hosted
the biannual seminar lecture series; the focus for
this fall‘s series is lifespan issues for individuals
with disabilities and their families.

According to a quote on the MIDI Web site
from Harold Kleincrt. director of the film. the
goal of these lectures is to "provide students. facv
tilty. and staff of the university and the Medical

(cuter. iii addition to members of the community.
access to cutting edge information about issues re-
lated to persons with disabilities "

The three other lectures on speciali/cd topics
will be held throughout the semester.

According to the IIII)I Web site. lleth Mel/er
of Kentucky‘s Protection and Adiocacy will be
‘bcaking about school law for students w ith devel»

HOLLYWOOD — Claude
Chabrol makes his particular
kind of unnerving. deliciously
amoral thrillers look easy. Once
you‘ve made as many of them as
he has. they probably arc.

“The Bridesmaid“ is the 76-
year-old French director's 54th
feature and, like many of the
others. it uses the extraordinary
craft Chabrol has acquired over
the decades to insinuate itself in-
side our psychcs in unexpected
and potent ways.

Based on a novel by
Britain’s Ruth Rendcll. “The
Bridesmaids" unsettling story of
love and obsession has been
moved to the familiar Chabrol
territory of the French middle
class. a group that both fasci-
nates and horrifies the director.

It is one of Chabrol's abili-
tics (working here with co-
scrccnwriter Pierre Lcccia) to
deal with the mysteries of the
mundane. with what lurks bc-
neath the mask of the seemingly
ordinary.

His is a pctit bourgeois
world where the normal fccls
stranger than were comfortable
with and the strange is more up-
setting still.

For it‘s never been the crim—
inal aspect of thrillers that inter-
ests Chabrol but rather the
chance the genre gives him to
explore human psychology. es-
pecially in its more aberrant as-
pccts.

Everything certainly starts
out cozy as can be with the fam-
ily that's at the heart of ”The
Bridesmaid." In fact. mother

Christine (Aurore Clement) and
grown children Philippe (Benoit
Magimel). Sophie (Solene Bou—
ton) and Patricia (Anna Mihal-
cea) all live together and are in—
troduced going out to dinner
with Christine's new beau. Ger—
ard (Bernard Le Coq).

But because the especially
well-cast Magimel (seen oppo-
site lsabelle Hupert in “The Pi—
ano Teacher") is wound more
than usually tight, there is a hint
of perhaps too much attachment
between mother and son.

More than that. it's hard not
to notice that Philippe. who
seems disinterested in his

workaday job with a bathroom '

remodeling company, has devel—
oped an unusual attachment to a
particular garden ornament. a
stone head of the goddess Flora
that's been in the family for
years.

At sister Sophie‘s wedding.
Philippe takes a haphazard inter-
est in the groom's cousin Senta
(Laura Smet), a bridesmaid his
sisters think is aloof and discon—
nected. Where Philippe is con-
cerned. however. she is anything
but.

Following him home after
the ceremony. Senta declares
flatly. “You're the one I was
waiting for. you're my destiny."
When she takes Philippe home
to her strange apartment in the
basement of a dilapidated house.
she says. “Welcome to my
realm. my love."

Not surprisingly for some-
one so dramatic. Senta says
she's an actress. More than that.

Attraction that
becomes
all-consuming

she's a fabulist. a free-spirited
teller of tales who pulls the rug
out from under both Philippe
and the movie.

For though “The Brides-
maid" has initially teased us into
thinking that Philippe was the
strange one we had to watch out
for, he is normalcy itself com-
pared to a major league obses-
sive like Scnta.

lmpeccably played by Smet.
the unnerving Senta, in
Chabrol's words. has the ability
to “skew reality.

That's the founding principle
of witchcraft." In the blink of an
eye. she has drawn Philippe into
a vortex of her own creation. a
vortex so strong it pulls the au-
dience into it and so fast it
makes the head spin.

One fascinating thing about
the mutual obsessions of Senta
and Philippe is how hard it is to
tell them apart from the classic
tropes of falling in love.

What is more seductive.
more flattering. than for an at-
tractive person of the opposite
sex to tell us. ”I'll do anything
for you, you are my whole life"?

When a fantasy figure ex-
presses undying carnal love. do
we listen if a small voice says
something is not quite right?

Is this storybook love or
might something else be going
on? in the world of Claude
Chabrol. it is often impossible to
say for sure.

UK won't take Texas State lightly

By Jonathan Smith

ismltthyIternel com

Texas State barely squeezed
by Division II Tarleton State 27-
23 last weekend in its season
opener.

It wasn‘t the most decisive
win over a lower-division team.

But heading into Saturday‘s
game with the Bobcats, UK
head coach Rich Brooks said his
squad would be foolish to over—
look the l-AA team from San
Marcos.

“We can‘t take anybody
lightly,“ Brooks said. “Some-
body might take us lightly be-
cause of the way we played
Sunday night. but if we take
Texas State lightly. we need to
have our heads examined."

The UK defense that gave
up 363 rushing yards last Sun-
day against Louisville will again
be tested by a creative offense.

The Bobcats feature a triple—
option attack that produced 220
rushing yards and four touch-
downs in their first game.

Texas State junior quarter-
back Chase Wesson is a dual-
threat quarterback. rushing for
82 yards and two touchdowns
last week, while completing 65
percent of his passes. Their se-
nior running back Daniel Jolly
ran for 37 yards and two touch-
downs.

The option offense is rarely
used in the Southeastern Confer-
ence, making it a major change
from most of the schemes the
Wildcats have to prepare for.

“This is an assignment foot-
ball team.“ defensive coordina-
tor Mike Archer said. “We have
to make sure we know who has

the quarterback. who has the al-
ley and those type of things."

Archer said complicating the
matter even more is the short
week the Cats are faced with af~
ter the Sunday-night game. UK
has had less time to rest and to
study film on Texas State.

When the Cats are on of—
fense, they will try to set the
tone on the ground — some-
thing they were unable to do
against U of L. The Cats plod-
ded for 22 yards on 19 carries.
partly because they fell behind
31—0 and were forced to scrap
their running game. Last week.
the Bobcats surrendered only 35
rushing yards.

Offensive coordinator Joker
Phillips said the offense must
get the running game involved
so the passing game doesn't suf-
fer.

“The running game gives a
chance to throw the ball easier
downfield," Phillips said. “We
know we can stretch the field
now."

Junior quarterback Andre
Woodson threw for 231 yards
and three touchdowns and
showed the accuracy on deep
balls that helped earn him the
starting spot. Two of his touch-
down passes were to Dicky
Lyons Jr.. who will start Satur—
day after his breakout perfor-
mance.

“That‘s what we thought he
was when we got him." Phillips
said of Dicky Lyons Jr. “He‘s a
guy that was very immature
when he got here. and he's start-
ing to take this thing serious.
When he takes things serious.
the sky‘s the limit for this guy."

 

KEITH SMILEY | 5m:

UK head coach Rich Brooks will be expecting a tough fight from the Bob-
cats of Texas State. He hopes his team will will be able to set a domi-
nant tone early in the game, unlike their 59-28 loss to U of L.

Injury Update

Backup center Jorge Gonza-
les tore his anterior cruciate liga-
ment and medial collateral liga-
ment in his left knee in Wednes—
day practice and will miss the
rest of the season.

Defensive end Durrell White
and strong safety Roger
Williams will both be available
for Saturday's game. White suf-

fered a hyper~extended elbow in
the Louisville game and his sta-
tus was unclear. while Williams
will return to the field after a
death in his family.

Big game for Texas St.

This is Texas State‘s first
game ever against a Southeast-
ern Conference opponent and
their only clash this season with
a Division l-A school.

Cats can’t afford another early loss

The only thing UK did last Sunday was
lose a game it was supposed to lose.
Nothing
Nothing less.
In spite of the
Gloom and Doom atti—
tude adopted by some
in the wake of
Louisville‘s 59—28 vic—
tory. the fact remains
that no one expected
the Cats to win the
game.
Football coach
Rich Brooks said in
August that he viewed
the Louisville game as
one season. and the rest
of the year as an ll—game season. That's the
best — and only —— approach UK should
take. You do not have to go into the annals
of ancient history to find an example either.
Just look back to the last time UK played in
a bowl.

In I999 — when Cheatin‘ Hal took UK
to the Music City Bowl — Louisville
thumped the Cats 58-26 in Lexington. UK
found a way to win six games after the

more.

DELOTELI.

Louisville loss and became bowl—eligible.

This team has to do the same thing.
And it still can. because the loss to
Louisville did not change the favorability of
the Cats‘ schedule.

UK must win its three “guarantee"
games —- against Texas State. Central
Michigan and UL Monroe — and then find
a way to win three Southeastern Conference
games. For the sake of argument. let‘s
throw out the possibility of UK winning at
Florida. at LSU and at Tennessee. That
means UK has to win three of the other five
games in SEC play: Ole Miss. South
Carolina. Mississippi State. Georgia and
Vanderbilt.

When the schedule is broken down that
way. it is clear that achieving those magical
six wins is more than possible for this UK
team.

But it won't be possible if the (‘ats lose
to Texas State tomorrow.

The l—AA Bobcats will be the worst
team UK faces this season. They edged
Tarleton State — that‘s a real school a last
week. Texas State's last win over an l-A
opponent came in 2000.

This is a must—win.

“We‘re (H. and if we're 0—2 (after
tomorrow) the sky starts falling." Brooks
said.

Despite Texas State’s lack of quality
credentials. the Cats must avoid looking
forward to next week‘s pivotal match~up
with Ole Miss. After surrendering the first
31 points of the game last week. the Cats
would be wise to not overlook any oppo—
nent.

“We can‘t take anybody lightly."
Brooks said. “If we take Texas State lightly.
we need to have our heads examined."

The bet here is that the Cats will come
to play. They have an opportunity to accom»
plish a great deal in this ll-game season ,2
and it starts tomorrow.

Louisvrlle is over. The (fats were dis-
appointed to lose. but they also know that it
did not significantly impair this team's
goals.

Last week. the Cats lost a game the}
were supposed to lose.

Tomorrow. they‘ve got to win a game
they should wrn.
