The possibility of bars
selling alcohol later than the
current 1 am. cutoff time in
Lexington has adults evenly
split with 47 percent on each
side of the debate. according
to a recent UK poll.

“These results are not
surprising," said Ronald

However, some bar man-

a way for the government to
unfairly compensate for the
proposed smoking ban ordi-
nance.

“This is not a good com-
promise for the smoking
ban," said Tif Harrison,
manager of the Austin City
Saloon. "We did our own poll
and found 85 percent of our

customers smoke."

The research center said
the survey showed few peo-
ple would take advantage of
the later hours.

Among those inter-
viewed who drank in the last
month (about 65 percent of
the sample). about 25 percent
said they would be likely to
stay out longer drinking.

Students pump up Speedway sales

Gas station on Euclid Avenue is second-busiest in town,

though.

They are ready for busi-
ness as usual. they said.

“I've seen as many as
150 people here at one
time." said Lexington police
officer Billie Richmond.
“and lines 20 people deep."

It‘s not 11:06 in the
morning but 11:06 in the
evening. and the night is
just beginning at the sec-
ond-busiest of Lexington‘s
24 Speedways.

Customers going to

coming home from classes
in the middle of the day or

even leaving the bars late at
night stop by.

Although many factors
contribute to Speedway's
success. it seems as though
location and low prices are
the key factors.

Located at 515 Euclid
Ave.. Speedway is nestled in
a prime area, which enables
it to generate a massive
amount of business. em-
ployees said.

With Bearno‘s Pizza
next door and the Fish
Tank Bar and Grill right
across the street. it's easy
for college students to find
and convenient for those
who live nearby or down
the street. some said.

“Not only is it within
walking distance from
school. it’s right down from
my house,“ said manage-

ment systems junior Chris
Wood.

“It's really the only gas
station close to campus," he
said. “Beer runs are so easy
because it‘s so close. and
that way, you don't have to
get out on Nicholasville
(Road) and get in all that
ridiculous traffic.”

While some nearby peo-
ple usually just walk to
Speedway, some drive when
they have to fill up.

everybody.

“The bars encourage
more binge drinking by not
being open later. so people
feel they have to drink more

time,” said John Cahill. a fi-
nance senior who is in favor
of the later hours.

“I don't understand why
people would say no." said
Tiffany Kalenkosky. an inte-

rior design senior. “Maybe
people are worried that more
drunk drivers will be on the
road later at night."

A formal proposal has
not yet been introduced to
the Lexington Fayette/ Urban

“Nothing has come be-
fore the council yet.“ said 3rd

Muhammad convicted of Met, awdflng sentence

VIRGINIA BEACH, Va. — In a verdict that could cost
him his life, a stonefaced John Allen Muhammad was con-
victed Monday of using a high-powered rifle, a beat-up car
and a teenage sidekick to murder people at random and ter-
rorize the Washington area during last year’s sniper attacks.
The jury immediately began hearing evidence on whether
the 42-year-old Army veteran should get the death penalty
or life in prison. The penalty phase is expected to last sever—
al days. “We reserve the death penalty for the worst of the
worst,” prosecutor Richard Conway told the jurors. “Folks,
he still sits right in front of you without a shred of re-
morse." The jury deliberated for 6 1/2 hours over two days
before convicting Muhammad of two counts of capital mur-
der. Muhammad was found guilty of killing Dean Harold
Meyers, a Vietnam veteran who was cut down by a single
bullet that hit him in the head on Oct. 9, 2002. as he filled his
tank at a Manassas gas station. He was also found guilty of
grinspiracy to commit murder and use of a firearm in a

WHEN

School-sponsored
Napster needs wor

Students at Pennsylvania State University are
arguing against Napster.

Ironic, isn’t it? University president Graham
Spanier recently signed a deal to subscribe every
student in Penn State’s dormitories to Napster 2.0,
a re-tooled Napster that now functions as both a
premium streaming radio service and a pay-per-
download file service. The school, through tech-
nology fees students already pay, will cover the
cost of the premium radio service. Students can
download from a collection of over 500,000 major-
label songs for 99 cents each.

According to an article in the Chronicle of
Higher Education, Penn State will be the first, but
perhaps not the last university to sponsor Inter-
net music. At least a dozen other undisclosed uni-
versities are in negotiations with music services
for campus access.

It’s nice that Penn State wants to address the
problem. Universities need to come to terms with
the fact that online music is a part of college life.
But this solution won’t address illegal file shar-
ing’s biggest attraction H it’s free, if you don’t get
subpoenaed and sued.

Many students continue to fight the RIAA and
download despite the round of lawsuits filed over
the summer. Though the school is paying for ac-
cess to Napster‘s premium streaming radio, there

are plenty of free streaming radio stations on the
Internet already in use. Many big commercial ra-
dio stations have online streams for free through
their Web sites. Paying for radio is absurd.

This brings up another point of contention —
the deal between the RIAA, Napster and Penn
State appears as if the school is handing over stu-
dent money to the RIAA, already viewed as the
devil by young people. And the students don’t
even get to keep the music their fees are paying

or.

They have to pay nearly a dollar per song on
top of that to burn the music onto disc.

Even with over half a million songs to choose
from, students will invariably pay for a service
that won’t have everything they want. Penn State
has effectively taken away students’ control over
their money and handed it to the opposition.

In the Chronicle article, Fred von Lohmann of
the Electronic Frontier Foundation also opposed
the Penn State deal.

“This is a classic example of trying to force
students to take what the record labels are willing
to give,” he said. Napster mostly excludes inde
pendent artists.”

Democrats' filibuster:
are just double-speak
- look at ‘90s quotes

“It is not the role of the Senate to
obstruct the process and prevent num-
bers of highly-qualified nominees
from even being given the opportunity
for a vote on the Senate floor."

“Our institutional integrity re-
quires an up-or-down vote.”

“I would object and fight against
any filibuster on a judge, whether it is
somebody I opposed or supported

Without having names attached to
these quotes, it would be easy to as-
sume that they came from Republican
senators frustrated by their failure to .-
break Democratic filibusters of three '
judicial nominees. Like far too many assumptions, how-
ever, that one would be wrong. In fact, the quotes are
from, respectively, Barbara Boxer, Dianne Feinstein,
and Patrick Leahy, each of whom played some role in
the blatantly unconstitutional maneuvers of the past
few months.

These three quotes represent only a sample of a
plethora of statements made by Senate Democrats in
the late 1990's on the confirmation process of judicial
nominees. The morally impeccable Sen. Ted Kennedy
said in 1999, “It is true that some senators have voiced
concerns about these nominations. But that should not
prevent a roll call vote which gives every senator the
opportunity to vote ‘yes’ or ‘no.’ Parties with cases
waiting to be heard by the federal courts deserve a deci-
sion by the Senate."

Yet on Saturday, Kennedy spoke of the “resolution
and determination of members of the US. Senate to
continue to resist any Neanderthal that is nominated
by this president of the United States for any court." (It
would be easy to insert a joke here about the irony of
Sen. Kennedy referring to anyone as a “Neanderthal”
but that’s best left to the late-night hosts.) Is it possible
that Kennedy and these other Democrats have com-
pletely switched their views on this issue in four short
years? A rhetorical question, to be sure, but I think I
have a hunch about the answer.

As painful as it is to admit, Kennedy and company
were right the first time around. It is a breach of the
Senate’s constitutional duties to block nominations
from reaching the floor for an up-or—down vote. The dif-
ference is that in the Clinton years, candidates did re-
ceive a full Senate vote. Granted, Clinton’s nominees

were rejected at a higher rate than most other presi- .

dents’. They also received a courtesy that Senate De-
mocrats regrettably will not extend to some of Presi-
dent Bush’s picks.

The
