CELEBRATING 35 YEARS OF INDEPENDENCE

DOWNED AGAIN

Find solace in
UK’s own
secret garden

By Leila Kalogi
features®kykernelcom

Sandwiched between the chaos of South Limestone
traffic and the gridlock of Rose Street is one man‘s solace
— a 100-year—old garden.

“It's a nice cool oasis. on campus. in the middle of the
city.“ biology professor Jim Krupa said.

There are, over 400 different species in the garden ——
including every species Dogwood. White Oak. Black Oak
and Georgia Oak trees.

Branches come from every direction over the garden's
entrance. Green shrubs and plants are waist—high and tree
branches hang 15 feet overhead. The chirping of birds
and buzzing of grasshoppers drowns out the roar of car
engines. creating a small get-away in the most unlikely of
places.

The Mathews House. which sits in front of the garden
and is now an office building for Multicultural and Acad-
emic Affairs, was built in 1904 by then-professor Dr.
Clarence Wentworth Mathews. His family lived in the
house while he taught in the College of Agriculture. He
was the college's first dean.

After Mathew's death in 1968. his daughter Ruth
Mathews sold the house to the university and continued
to live in the house until 1986.

Now it's Krupa who spends six to eight hours every
weekend weeding the garden.

"I maintain it. 1 take care of it. I decide which trees
get planted. which trees get cut out. which to be
trimmed.“ Krupa said.

The garden is now used mainly for classes and occa-
sional visitors.

“lt‘s for classes. education. public education. and for
an escape." said Krupa.

Rob Paratley. an agriculture research specialist, brings
his classes to the garden to quiz them on the plants. Der-
rick Meads. who works in the College of Design, and
Shane Tedder. environmental coordinator in Resident
Life. both use the garden as an on—campus getaway.

Tedder said he comes to the garden for solitude about
once a week and called it a “campus treasure."

Though there are not current discussions of tearing
down the building and its garden. Krupa said he's been
told that it‘s always a possibility. If it were to happen.
Krupa said he would‘try to talk to the administration.

“That‘s what's gratifying to me. that I've saved green
space. so far. and 1‘ve given somebody some place to
Ieam and relax." Krupa said.

His efforts don‘t go unrecognized.

“One thing that happened with this University with its
quest for greatness is there's a lot of building.“ Meads
said. “One of the down sides to this quest is every time a
road is widened w a building built H green spaces are
taken. lt‘s a place people can go to get away from parking
lots."

Meads said Krupa almost single-handedly restored a
wild. weedy piece of property to a very useful. viable and
very interesting collection of plants.

Mathews originally kept the garden with a manicured
lawn and tall evergreens: it is now a woodland garden.

Krupa said he felt the garden would serve better as a
woodland garden where various species could be main—
tained. The garden hosts plants native to only Southeast-
ern United States with the majority from Kentucky

The plants sit among picnic tables benches and a
gravel pathway ~ all intended to encourage visitors.

‘Anytime we can saye green space I feel that s im-
portant." Krupa said. “It would be such a crime to put a
building or a parking lot on this. 1 think it would be a
crime to have mowed lawn in here."

“1 have to do anything 1 can do to save any green
space in this city."

Despite Saturday‘s early
morning chill, students from Cam-
pus Crusade for Christ stood just
inside Gate 12 at Commonwealth
Stadium. They showed up at 8
am. to install 3.700 blue “UK"-
branded chair backs. just in time
for football season.

Each stadium section entrance
was stocked with one to two pa1~
lets. each stacked seven feet high
with chair backs. Additional pal-

lets overflowcd into the lobby.
Sam Wotxlall, a nursing junior
and student coordinator of the
event this year. said the event ran
smoothly and was “stressfrcc.”
He also said the installation of
chair backs was not the only reason
that students came out that day.
“It's just a good opportunity to
come out and get to know the sta-
dium and get to know the people."
he said. “I guess you could say the
ulterior motive here is to get to
know people."
By 8:15 a.m.. the students had

spread out to their assigned sec
tions of the stadium. some tasked
with placing the seats. others with
securely drilling them into place.
The chair backs are blue seats
with the UK logo on the back por
tion. A black metal frame attaches
the back to a cushion, which sits
on the bleachcr. The frame has
two hooks that latch onto the front
of the bleacher. The chair backs
are drilled into place from below.
At the day‘s peak. 21 students
from the organization showed up
to help. allowing the group to fin-

ish Installing all the chair backs by
4:30 pm.

Woodall said the event acted
as a fund—raiser for the group; they
received 50 cents for each seat

for the day.

“I think it‘s a great thing. It's
pretty much a win-win situa-
tion." Jacobs said. “The season
ticket holders [who decide to
lease the seats] get a comfort~
able seat and this student group
is able to raise some money.”

Troy Jones. president of [85.

Woodall stressed that he was

Trial' In plane plot trial may wait until 08

Mevin Sullfl
The Washington Post

LONDON—Suspects in an
alleged plot to bomb U.S.—bound
jetliners are unlikely to face trial
before 2008. a prosecutor said in
court Monday.

Prosecutor Colin Gibbs. cit-
ing the large amount of evidence
in what police describe as a con
spiracy involving at least ll
people. told a judge in London’s
Old Bailey courthouse that the
trial could start as late as March
2008.

Defense lawyers expressed
concern that the suspects might
be held in jail without bail for
more than [8 months before tri—
al.

Eight suspects accused of
conspiracy to commit murder. in
an alleged plot to smuggle liquid
explosives onto jetliners and
detonate them in flight. were or-
dered held without bail until
their next court appearance on
Sept. 18. Three other suspects
facing the same charges are also

scheduled to appear in court that
day. Police have not announced
whether they will bring charges
against five other people still be-
ing held following raids last
month.

The suspects in court Mon-
day. who appeared via video
link from Belmarsh prison. are
Ahmed Abdullah Ali 25 Tanvir
Hussain 25 Umar Islam 28.
Arafat Waheed Khan 25 Assad
Ali Sarwar. 26. Adam Khatib.
l9. Ibrahim Savant. 25 and Wu»
heed Zaman. 25.

Also Monday. in an unrelat»
ed investigation. police in Sus-
sex issued a statement saying
they had sent officers and staff
at least l5 times for diversity
training at an Islamic school
currently being searched by anti-
terrorism officers from Scotland
Yard.

The lameah lslameah
school. set on 54 acres southeast
of London. has been the subject
of an intensive search by scores
of police since Saturday in an

 

operation in which police arrest-
ed 14 people on suspicion of ter-
rorism-related offenses. British
news media have reported that
police suspect the school may
have been used by radicals try-
ing to recruit and train violent
extremists.

“The school has been used
by officers and staff undergoing
advanced training for their role

as diversity trainers to the rest of

the workforce." the police state—
ment said. "This has involved a
series of one—day visits to the
school by groups of two or three
trainers on up to 15 occasions
over more than a year."

Police said training at the
school helps officers “improve

our knowledge and awareness of

the manv diverse communities
that we serve in Sussex. Police
said they were not embar-
rassed" by the situation. “but in—
evitably this will have to be re-
viewed in the light of the week-
end‘s events."

Police are still questioning

the 14 people arrested in that
case. They have not been identi-
fied. and no charges have been
brought yet.

According to widespread re—
ports in the British media. one
of those arrested was Abu Ab—
dullah. 42. a close associate of
Abu Hamza Masri. a radical ls-
lamic preacher who was sen-
tenced to seven years in prison
in February for inciting racial
hatred with his sermons.

The Sunday Times on Aug.
27 published an interview with
Abu Abdullah in which he said
he would “love" to kill British
troops in Afghanistan. called the
Sept. ll. 2(itll. attacks a "dc~
served punch in the nose" for
the United States and described
President Bush as “a scalp that
needs to be taken.”

Britain earlier this year en-
acted legislation making it a
crime to "glorify" terrorism: lc-
gal experts here say police may
be considering using the new
law against Abu Abdullah.

TORONTO _- U.S. jcts mistakenly
strafed Canadian soldiers in Afghanistan on
Monday. killing one and bringing to five the
number of Canadian troops killed during a
major push against the Taliban this week—
end.

The deaths come as domestic support for
the war is sliding and political opposition is
growing. and the fatalities are certain to fuel
the controversy in Canada over this coun-
try‘s role in supporting NATO and the Unit-
ed States in the five—year-old Afghan war.

Four of the battlefield deaths occurred
Sunday as the Canadians attempted to
sweep Taliban guerrillas from Panjwai. an
area of farms and poppy fields in the south-
ern province of Kandahar that has been a
staging area for attacks against Canadian
troops. The operation. code—named Medusa.
met what commanders acknowledged was
surprising resistance.

Just after dawn on Monday. another
Canadian contingent was camped in an open

area when two A-li) “Warthog" ground at-
tack planes flown by US. pilots under
NATO command strafed its camp. One sol—
dier was killed and about 30 suffered what
officers described as mostly light wounds.

NATO officials said the planes were
called in for support by other Canadian
troops during the fighting Canadian and
NATO officers were quick to describe the
incident as an unfortunate consequence of
war.

The accident “s very regrettable." said
Lt. Gen. David Richards. the NATO forces
commander in Afghanistan. ”But the task
they were set is extremely important. per-
haps pivotal in some respects. to the opera-
tion we are conducting here.”

In a similar incident earlier in the
Afghan war. four (.‘anadians soldiers were
killed in 2002 when a US. plane mistakenly
dropped a bomb on Canadian forces as they
trained. That incident caused bitter feelings
for many in Canada and has lingered as a
rhetorical touchstone for those who oppose
the alliance of (‘anada with the United

States in the war in Afghanistan.

Thirty-two (‘anadiaii soldiers and one
diplomat have hccn killed in Afghanistan
since 2002

Jack Layton. a member of Parliament
from the opposition New Democratic Party.
this weekend called Afghanistan “ the wrong
mission" for ('anada. which has 2.3le
troops in the country. Most are stationed
near Kandahar in southern Afghanistan. a
stronghold of the Taliban. Layton called for
a return home of the troops by February.

Defense Minister (iordon O‘Connor
toured Afghanistan this weekend to boost
the morale of the soldiers and offered an up
beat assessment for the country.

“My expectation is that over the next
year the security situation will improve." he
told reporters in Kandahar. “l bclievc supr
pon for the mission is solid among (‘anadi»
ans."

But opinion polls released this weekend.
before the most recent deaths. showed a
continuing slide in support for the war in
Afghanistan and for the foreign policy of
Prime Minister Stephen Harper.

Local coffee hits the spot

By Carrie Base

features@kykernel.com

My first thought nearly every morning —— or afternoon —
upon waking is Where's the coffee? So naturally, my first incli
nation for an article was unveiling all of the fabulous, econom-
ic coffee options available in Lexington within walking distance
of UK. Although it is easy to skip to the nearest campus depot
or coffee chain, an occasional outing into the world of coffee
shops can be a nice escape from daily campus life.

“A;

Free food‘.’ Yeah. that's right' From 7 am. to X a.m..
Monday through Friday. with the purchase of any coffee
beverage at Common Grounds. you can receive a free
muffin (normally $1.75ir That means that with the pur-
chase of a lo ounce cup of fair trade coffee (who says
you cant be cheap and socially conscious?) costing a
mere ‘52 can secure you a delicious breakfast. While this
does require waking up early. you will find the free gi-
gantic muffin worth the effort. Free wireless Internet and
comfortable couches are also available. Common
Grounds is located at 343 E. High Street.

Happy Hour

Third Street Stuff has a happy hour every Monday
through Friday from 5 pm. to 7 pm. where all coffee
drinks are half off. For at midday pick~me~up or
study session. this is the ideal place to go. espe-

cially because of the free wireless Internet
available. Although Third Street Stuff is lo-

cated a walk aw at) from campus. a good

deal is always worth the effort. Third

Street Stuff is located at 257 South I.ime~

stone Street.

Chai Tea
Fauntleroyk (‘afe is a new addition to
the Lexington coffee house scene. and it
offers the most competitiyc price for chai
tea $1.75 for a single and $2.75 for a
double. For those who are not familiar with
chai. it is a highly concentrated spiced black
tea added to a mixture of water and warm milk. It
is a sweet. spicy alternati\e for those who are not \
enamored with the flavor of coffee. Organic. fair trade \
and local products are used as often as possible. Free parkv
ing and wireless Internet make Fauntleroy ‘s a perfect ex-

cursion at anytime. Fauntleroy’s Cafe is located at 640 Maxwell Street
and is open Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 4 pm. and Saturday
from It) a.m. to 4 pin.

Comfort Food

Magee‘s Bakery is somewhat of a Lexington tradition, hav-
ing been open for 50 years. It is also the ideal place to enjoy
cheap comfort breakfast foods. such as doughnuts and bis-
cuits. A small coffee costs a mere $1.37 while doughnuts
range from 5.65875 each and biscuits are just $.30 each.
For under $3. you can treat yourself to a delectable indul-
gence while utilizing the free Internet to check Facebook.
Magee's Bakery is located at 7'26 E. Main Street. It opens at
5:30am Monday through Friday. at 6:30am on Saturdays
and 8am on Sundays.

Monster

I cannot resist this slushy drink. which allows me to revisit
my childhood every time I order it from Third Street Stuff.
The (ireen Monster (or Green Hell) is Ale—8 or diet Ale-X
blended with green apple syrup and ice. The result is $1.75
worth of neon green. sugary nostalgia. It is not listed on the

menu board. but the baristas will know
what you are requesting. Again.

this is another great coffee

shop alternative for those

days when coffee just

Bang for your buck:
Popular movies for
$1 at Student Center

By Ellie Fairbanks
efairbanks®kykemelcom

What's better than going out with friends to see a popular
new movie?

Paying only $1 to do so.

UK‘s Student Activities Board is making this possible for
UK faculty. staff and students again this semester with Cheap
Seat Tuesdays. This program, which is sponsored by SAB and
paid for with student activity fees. is in its second year at UK.
Tonight is the third Tuesday of the program. which runs
through November.

Chad Clark, SAB‘s graduate student advisor. has been
working with SAB. the cinema director and a committee to
plan this weekly event.

"Kate Bunnell. who is the cinema director. and a commit—
tee have been meeting about once a week to decide which
movies to show." said Clark.

Deciding on movies shouldn‘t be a hard task, as most of
the chosen films have had immense success at the box office.
The committee looks at the films‘ popularity and appeal to
college students.

Movies to be shown
at Cheap Seat Tuesdays
include “Click." “The
Breakup." "Pirates of the
Caribbean 2." “You. Me
and Dupree,“ “Idlewild.”
"World Trade Center"
and “Talladega Nights."

All of the movies
shown are pre—released
home videos that are only
available directly from
studios. according to
Clark. Because these
movies are not out on
DVD yct. SAB has to pay
the studios for the rights
to show them. What normally a moviegoer would pay around
$8 to see. SAB allows students to see for significantly less.

“We definitely lose money when we show these mo
