Me me me me

A hard
day's night

Oh. guys and gals. today
seems to be your
lucky day as I am
finally going to grant
your request and let
you in on what it's like
to be a rail editor.
We've received scores
of e-mails saying that
our job seems as easy
as Music lOl but
without the jazz.
However, that is not
true at all; it's more
like a KHP 101 class
(Kinesiology and
Health Promotion:
Ultimate Frisbee and
Flag Football). To be
honest. though,
nobody has been
asking what we do all
day except for my
parole officer, but this
could be funny so bear
with me.

Today I'm having
breakfast at Tiffany's,
or whatever that girl's
name was that I went
home with last night.
That will teach me not
to mix Tylenol PM, Pop
Rocks and Heineken.

Now it's time to go to
class. For all you other
suckers, I'm going
back to sleep. See
how hard I have it? I
feel a great deal of
guilt, laughing-my-
butt-off'guilt, but guilt
nonetheless.

A little later is usually
when I receive a
distress signal from
the mayor, and it's
time for action. The
Joker is stealing some
kind of radioactive
chemical used in
explosives and 1,
Batman, have to stop
him. Then my alarm
clock goes off and
ruins my dream.

I climb out of a mountain
of clothes a la Dante
Hicks from Clerks and
go to the computer
lab where l
work/sleep/play
games. Lab
consultants have it
rough - at least that's
what we are told to
say if questioned by
the police.

About this time - any
time, actually - I'd be
getting hungry. Here's
a tip: Delivery services
care more about
money than
convenience so they'll
deliver anywhere on
campus, including
classrooms as long as
you can give precise
directions.

After lunch I have another
class/nap and then it's
off to play flag
football. I‘m the
center, and we have
this secret play where
I go out five yards and
cut to the left but
instead I slip and fall
on my head to distract
the other team. I
swear that's the play
that was called. I’m
not just clumsy.

Smith's contract approved

‘Satisfied': UK head coach to
receive $1.7 million annual salary

By John Dobson

UK men‘s basketball coach Tubby Smith has
agreed to a four~year contract extension. spurning
an offer to coach at the University of South Carolina.

UK athletics director Larry Ivy said that the ex-
tension would make Smith one of the country‘s
best-coinjwnsated college coaches. potentially in
creasing his annual pay to $1.7 million up front a
reported $1.2 million under the current deal. which
had two seasons remaining.

Essentially. UK has handed Smith a new six
year deal at a rate Ivy seems very comfort
able with.

"Once the numbers come out. we‘re very riiuch
in the range ofthe top four or five programs in the
nation." Ivy said yesterday at a meeting of the ITK
Athletics Association Board of Directors.

“It‘s a figure that Tubby was very satisfied with

and something that I feel is deserved for him for

ilAIIQNALNEfli

the job he's done."

ESPN .com reported Wednesday that Smith
turned down a $2 million offer to coach the Game-
cocks. lvy had granted USC permission to speak
with the UK coach earlier this week.

“Tubby never mentioned South (‘arolina to
me." Ivy said. "I gave [South Carolina] my permis-
sion to speak to him, and I don‘t know what their
conversations were.

“Anytime any of our coaches iii any sport
have the chance to look at another opportunity.
we want them to do that. ()bviously. this was
not something that Tubby wanted to consider
seriously."

'l‘he board authorized Ivy and UK president
(‘harles Wethington to complete the terms of the
agreement with Smith. who is expected to sign the has
extension within a week.

“We've agretxl. it's a done deal and now wejusi at UK
have to get it on paper.“ Ivy said.

Wethington expressed a need to ensure Smith's
presence on the Rupp Arena sideline for the fore
seeable future.

"We wanted to extend the terms of' his contract
because we believe (Toach Smith is the coach we
want to keep for some time." Wethington said.

Ivy said the contract could
include a loyalty bonus. which
Smith would receive should he
stay through the coiitract's con
clusion at the end of the
2006-2007
bonus would. presumably.
be an attempt to ward off
fears of Smith‘s departure

Bush extends an olive branch to China

The waiting game

0.5. Ambassador to China, Joseph Pruehler, walks past a Chi-
nese military police officer outside the us. Embassy in Beijing
on Tuesday. Pruehler said he expects the 0.5. military attach-
es in Hainan to be allowed Tuesday to meet the crew from the
“.5. plane which made an emergency landing Sunday at a Chi-
nese naval air base.

But no apology: Administration
says this would imply wrongdoing

ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON The Bush administration of-
fered Beijing a chorus of regrets but no apology for
the collision between a US. spy plane and a (Thi-
nese jet fighter. China. still detaining 24 American
crew members. said it was a step in the right direc-
tion amid signs that both sides wanted a face-sav-
ing resolution.

President Bush. who issued a stern warning to
Beijing a day earlier, had his advisers extend the
olive branch Wednesday.

“We regret the loss of' life of that (Thinese pilot
but now we need to move on.“ Secretary of State
(‘olin Powell said. “We need to bring this to a reso-
lution and we're using every avenue available to
us to talk to the (‘hinese side to exchange explana-
tions and move on."

White House press secretary Ari Fleischer
echoed Powell‘s remarks. saying "we have ex-
pressed our concern and our regrets about that in-
cident." but he declined China's demand for an
apology. In China. a similar regrets-but-no-apology
formulation was offered to the nation's foreign
minister by the US. ambassador.

“The United States doesn't understand the rea—
son for an apology." Fleischer said. “Our airplanes
are operating in international airspace. and the
United States did nothing wrong."

An apology would imply wrongdoing by the
US. officials said. something Bush has not been
Willing to concede.

Powell. in a little-noticed comment. had said
Tuesday that the crash was “fatal for the pilot of
the Chinese plane and I regret that."

But the remarks Wednesday were the adminis-
tration‘s most emphatic expressions of sympathy.
designed to set the course for a middle ground that
could lead to the crews release and allow both
sides to escape dangerous diplomatic territory. offi-
cials said.

Since the first day of the standoff. the president
has steadily increased rhetorical pressure on the
Chinese while leaving room for a diplomatic settle
ment. Bush and his foreign policy team debated
whether he needed to make a personal statement
similar to Powell‘s. but there were no plans for one

UK Lambda explores new generation at weekend convention

 

An invitation: Group says event will enlighten heterosexuals

By Ashley York
ASSISTANT NW5 EDITOR

James Obenshain didn‘t define himself
as a product of Generation X or Y. He
prefers Generation Q, what he calls Genera-
tion Queer.

That's the theme of the Sixth Annual
(‘ome Together Kentucky conference. an
annual gay and lesbian event sponsored by
UK Lambda. this weekend.

Obenshain. the vice president of [K
Lambda. said Generation Q is a generation
different from the X and Y generations.

“The reality is that most of us don‘t fit

in mainstream society because it is hetero
centrist." he said.

Which is why L'K Lambda sponsors
an event for the discussion of the different
life experiences and lifestyles of the gay
community.

The conference was started by UK
lambda in 1994 to bolster the Generation Q
theme. (Thenshain. a history and Japanese
studies junior said. This year. it coincides
with 17K Lambda's 10th anniversary.

()benshain said UK Lambda expects
more than 100 people from Kentucky colleges
and universities to gather this weekend for

ence. an event created by IR Lambda in 1994.

Even though the conference was de.
signed especially for members of the gay
community. ()benshain said it is open to
everyone. In fact. be extended the invite to
heterosexuals.

“It‘s really important for someone
straight to come. to explore the aspects of
our lives they weren't used to." he said of
the unique set of challenges the gay commu-
nity faces.

It will be enlightening for them. he said.

Kathy Stein. state representative for the
73rd district. will speak at the conference on
Saturday.

“In order for our county to be as pro
ductive of good things as possible. it is nec-
essary that we join together in education on

difficult social issues." she said.

And she said Lexington is long overdue
on including all segments of our population
in civil and human rights. which perpetu-
ates hateful and divisive rhetoric about
equal rights for persons. irrespective of their
sexual orientation. by some fringe groups.

“That's too bad." she added.

CHINA

Continued from page i

as of Wednesday afternoon.

Despite the signs of
progress both sides held pub-
licly to contradictory posi-
tions: China called itself the
“injured party" and blamed
the United States for the crash
while the White House called
it an accident and Pentagon of-
ficials said the Chinese pilots
buzzed the lumbering spy
plane.

()n Capitol Hill, the sister
of 31-year-old detained Petty
Officer Kenneth Richter said a
carefully crafted apology
might be in order.

“If it’s just a simple apolo-
gy that‘s going to get them
back. then that should be
fine," said Barbara DiStefano
of Staten Island. N.Y., before
tying a yellow ribbon around
an elm tree near the Senate.
“But if it‘s an apology with
conditions, then the United
States government has to de-
cide what they're going to do,"

Day 4 ofthe standoff began
with Chinese President Jiang
Zemin demanding an apology
for the collision between the
Navy PIP-8E Aries ll electronic
surveillance plane and a (Thi-
nese jet.

He also said the United
States should “do something
favorable to the smooth devel
optnent of China-US. rela-
tions." a statement taken by
administration officials as a
sign that Beijing would wel-
come any act of contrition
front the United States.

Their hopes were fueled
shortly afterward when For

eign Minister Tang Jiaxuan
echoed Jiang's call for an apol'
ogy in a meeting with US.
Ambassador Joseph Prueher
but also said China hoped to
see the incident “resolved as
soon as possible" with China
protecting its sovereignty and
dignity.

Chinese Embassy press
counselor Zhang Yuan Yuan
called Powell's remarks “a
step in the right direction."

State Department
spokesman Richard Boucher
said the administration was
looking for channels to open
talks with the Chinese about
the incident.

As the two countries
squared off over the fate of the
crew. the husband of a US.
based political scientist arrest-
ed by China and charged with
spying said she was a victim of
souring U.S.-Chinese relations.

“I am pleading to both the
US. and Chinese govern-
ments: Please do not put my
wife and my family as a sacri-
fice for any political reasons,“
Xue Donghua said in a state-
ment. Gao Zhan. her husband
and 5-year-old son were de-
tained by China on Feb. 1].

In a sign of potential po-
litical fallout from the plane
crash. a Republican lawmak-
er who opposed granting Chi-
na permanent normal trade
relations last year introduced
a bill that would revoke the
status.

“A favored trading part-
ner with our country would
follow proper protocol and
not continue to hold our ser-
vicemen and women. along
with our equipment. after
being asked for their re-
turn," said Rep. Duncan
Hunter. R‘Calif.

nese gather to
