Thanks to a nearly perfectly preserved speci-
men of an adult wooly mammoth found in Siberia in
1996. a group of scientists hope to bring the species

back into existence.

However. even the scientists themselves admit
that they do not expect success. Matty other scien-

tists agree.

The plan is to extract DNA from the. mammoth,
and insert this DNA into an Asian elephant‘s egg
that has been stripped of its elephant genes.

“We‘re a long way off from where we can take
tissue from a wooly mammoth and make another
wooly mammoth." said Dan Noonan, associate pro-

fessor in biochemistry at UK.

Noonan explained that this would not be that
feasible because DNA is normally “committed.”
which means that different sections of DNA are
meant to form different organs and parts of the
body. For example. DNA taken from the liver is al-

ready “committed" to create liver cells.

Cloning in the case of animals such as Dolly.
the sheep cloned by geneticists in Scotland in 1998.
was possible because the geneticists used early em:
bryonic tissue, in which the DNA has not commit-
ted yet. Noonan said. Stephen Greb. an adjunct pro-
fessor in UK‘s geoscience department. said that if
the cloning was successful, it would be a very large
source of revenue for whoever accomplished the

feat.

“People would line up all around the block to

see a live prehistoric animal. he said.

Greb said that a wooly mammoth could have
problems surviving in today‘s world because might
not have antibodies to certain viruses and diseases

that now exist.

The wooly mammoth close physiologically to
modern elephants would work in its favor though.
Greb said. More importantly, since it went ex-

tinct relatively re-

DNA is an organic chemical of complex molec-
ular structure that is found in all cells and in
many viruses. DNA codes genetic information
for the transmission of inherited traits. Within
a cell, DNA is organized into dense protein-
DNA complexes called chromosomes.

“I think you're

Interestingly. Greb
said that one of the

all students with just a few clicks of a mouse.

.leb Messer and Brad Williams. both computer sci-

“We got the idea from the Greeks." Messer said. “We

just wanted to give everybody a chance."

Messer said the site especially benefits younger stu:

said.

Cloning is
baaa-d

Meet Dolly.
In 1996, Dolly became
the first large animal
cloned from genetic
material talten from
an adult egg.
Scientists at the
Roslin Institute in
Scotland inserted a
cell from a 6 year-old
ewe's udder into an
egg from the same
animal after
removing the
egg's DNA.
The bioengi-
’ neered embryo
was implant-
ed in the
ewe's
womb and
Dolly devel-
oped as a
clone of the
ewe.
Recently,
researchers
discovered
that Dolly
has DNA in
her cells
typical of a
much older
animal. Her
, telomeres, tiny
strands of DNA
that shorten each
time a cell divides,
were found to be
shorter than other 3-
year-old sheep, sug-
gesting she is geneti-
cally older than her
birth date.
Dolly's shortened
telomeres had been
predicted as one out-
come of cloning, but
researches are unsure
if such evidence will
cause her to die pre-
maturely.

Plans to improve and expand
the Lexington (‘ivic (‘enter and

estimated cost of the proposed plan
is $45 million.

“The (‘ivic (‘enter improve-

Proposed renovations include a

one constitutional consideration to another. Jus-

ResNet wrinkles ironed

‘A learning experience': Auxiliary Services forges through
a myriad of complications to bring students the Internet

By Tracy Kerstin
ASSISTANT NEVIS EDITOR

ResNet can finally take a break.

After a hectic early semester, things
have slowed down, said Ben Crutcher, di-
rector of Auxiliary Services. “It is now
under control. It took about a month to
get everyone connected," Crutcher said.

ResNet serviced about 2.700 connec-
tions. surpassing the number they antici-
pated before the semester began. As a re-
sult. many students like pre-physical ther-
apy freshman Lee Kidd had to wait to be
connected to the system.

“I had trouble contacting ResNet,“
Kidd said. “My roommate’s dad actually

ended up connecting our computer to the
cable box."

The variety of computers that stu-
dents brought onto campus also produced
a delay. “We encountered all varieties of

Following one of the worst droughts in
years in Kentucky. the Kentucky Geological
Survey begins its twelfth geological survey
searching for alternative water sources.

James C. Cobb, a professor in the Depart
ment of Geological Sciences, has been named to
the position of state geologist. Finding alterna-
tive water sources for both public and private
use across the state is one ofthe most important
tasks for the survey. housed in UK's Mining
and Mineral Resources Center. he said.

The idea behind a geological survey is to
provide technical advice to federal. state and lo-
cal government agencies on matters related to
coal. water. oil and natural gas. industrial min-
erals and geological hazards Cobb said.

New technology in the Water Resources
Section of the survey is enabling them to find
previously untapped water sources.Through
the survey. programs such as Landsat Themat-
ic Mapping and Side Looking Airborne Radar
use satellite imagery and aerial photos to locate
underground fractures in rocks. The hope is
that these fractures will contain large amounts
of ground water.

Once fractures are found. drilling begins to
test the quality and quantity of the water. said
David R. Wunsch. a hydrogeoiogist in the Wa-

fiEQLQGXJEUhL

Searching for water

The big task: The Kentucky Geological Survey, based at UK, uses
high-tech equipment to find alternatives to the river

ter Resources section of the survey. So far. the
survey has seen great success in the Kentucky
River Basin of Eastern Kentucky. he said.

“Over the past It) years we have increased
our knowledge of underground water supplies
ten-fold." Wunsch said.

The survey has worked on test drills in
Breathitt and lietcher counties where the ma-
jority of people get their water from wells. cis~
terns or other sources. These sources are often
tainted with sulfur. iron or bacteria. which
make the water useless for humans. according
to a report published this year by the survey.

Cobb said this is a big problem for the near
1y 1 million people who live in the Kentucky
River Basin.

The technology has been limited to Eastern
Kentucky up to this point because it is funded
by a grant from the Kentucky River Authority
that limits their range. Cobb hopes that the
twelfth survey will eventually see, this technolo—
gy in use across the state.

“We are using it according to the priority
needs of the state." Cobb said. He added that the
next focus area for the survey would be the
Northern part ofthe state around the Louisville
area.

Survey hydrogeologist Robert Andrews
said that the progress made this year in finding
new sources of well water far exceeded previ-
ous expectations.

“The possibilities from this type of technol»
ogy are incredible." he said.

UK women‘s basketball team
will take the floor tonight
against Sweden at Memorial
