PHOTO BY BRANDON GOODWIN | STAFFVocal performance sophomore Jacob Waid took a punch from senior Melissa Snow-Groves during opera practice.
The portion of South Limestone Street be-tween Avenue of Champions and Maxwell Streetwill be closed from 6-11 p.m. Friday evening for“Rally Time on Lime,” a pep rally sponsored bythe South Limestone Merchants Association.
The rally, which is designed to help peopleget excited for the UK football game versusLouisville on Saturday, will be from 7-10 p.m.,said Chrissie Tune, senior marketing specialistfor UK Parking.
South Limestone will be closed for the ex-tra two hours to allow for time on either end ofthe event, Tune said.
The merchants association was created twoweeks ago, saidTom Behr,owner of Paz-zo’s Pizza Pub.
He said theidea for the peprally originallycame from KipCornett, thepresident ofCornett Adver-tising, whichdoes some ad-vertising for UK Athletics. Cornett approachedUK Athletics with the idea as a fan.
Behr, Cornett and Seth Bennett, owner ofTwo Keys Tavern, worked together on the rally.
Behr said about half of the merchants onSouth Limestone are aware of the association,and by next week he hopes to have all of theminvolved.
The merchants association has worked withboth UK and the city government on planning.
He said UK had concerns about safety, andstill do, so they will see how it goes.
Behr expects several thousand people toattend and hopes it goes well so they can havefuture events for basketball or football games.
“We’ve gotten tremendous response,” Behrsaid.
He also said with more businesses now onLimestone, “it feels like we have a college stripof places to go to.”
According to an email alert from UK Park-ing, people who travel around or park on NorthCampus should expect heavier-than-normalcongestion during the event.
Those attending the rally may park in UKParking Structure No. 5 beside Kennedy BookStore on South Limestone. The garage will beopen for parking from 6 p.m. to 2 a.m.
The street closure will not affect CatsCruiser bus routes, but Lextran’s Colt Trolleywill have modified service.

Friends of Coal will be the “signaturesponsor” of the football game againstLouisville this Saturday.
The organization aims to inform Kentuck-ians about the coal industry, and the $85,000agreement is funded by the Kentucky CoalAssociation.
While the contract is set, opinions vary.Lane Boldman, publicity chair for the
Cumberland Chapter of the Sierra Club and aLexington resident, said she thinks this moveis counter to college policy.
“It’s clear that the coal industry has wonthe favor of the campus,” Boldman said.“There is a difference between being a goodcorporate citizen and using PR to look like

Breaking down the keymatchups in the 24th edition ofthe Governor's Cup rivalry be-tween UK and Louisville onSaturday.
UK running back Josh Clemons vs.the Louisville run defense
Following Thursday’s prac-tice, UK head coach JokerPhillips announced that startingrunning back Raymond Sanderswill be out for a handful ofweeks with a right knee injury
suffered in UK’s win over Cen-tral Michigan last week.Sanders had arthroscopic kneesurgery Thursday morning,forcing him to watch theLouisville game from the side-lines. The starting running backjob is now bestowed uponfreshman Josh Clemons, UK'sleading rusher through the firsttwo weeks of the season.Clemons has 25 carries for 165yards and two touchdowns, in-cluding a UK freshman record87-yard touchdown run againstCentral Michigan. But thus farin his collegiate career,Clemons has never been asked
to carry the workload as the pri-mary back in Phillips’ offense.
Louisville's defense won'tmake Clemons’ job any easier.Despite posting one of thepoorest pass defenses in the na-tion, the Cardinals’ run defensehas excelled in 2011. In theirfirst two games, the Cardinalshave allowed just 94 rushingyards a game to their oppo-nents. Last week in a loss toFlorida International, Louisvilleallowed just 45 yards rushing tothe Golden Panthers’ offense.Led by senior linebacker Dex-ter Heyman, who leads theteam in tackles, Louisville's de-
fense has the ability to coverthe field from sideline to side-line.
UK’s banged-up offensiveline will have to establish apush up front early in the gameagainst the Cardinals ifClemons and UK is to have anyhope of running the ball. To do

A group of visiting scholar-ship German students experi-enced their first UK footballgame last Saturday at Common-wealth Stadium.
Valeria Struckov, Buket Ce-lik and Samet Akyazi had onlyseen a football game in themovies.
“The culture on Kentucky’s
campus is very unique becauseeveryone believes in traditionand wears blue and UK gear,”Struckov said.
Struckov, who is from asmall village called Lachendorf,said she was intrigued by thefans’ passion and devotion to thesport.
“The best moment of thegame was the opening,” shesaid. “Everyone standing andsinging the anthem, soldiers car-
rying the huge flag and the jets— this was crazy, I’ve neverimagined that somebody woulddo so much for a university foot-ball game.”
Celik said the communityand people made the game enter-taining.
“I liked the cheerleaders be-cause they made it more fun,since we do not have this in Ger-many,” she said.
Struckov said the surprises
started before the game.“I saw people celebrating on
the parking ground, building uppavilions and sitting and drink-ing in camping chairs,” she said.“In Germany, people might getmad if you set a pavilion on theparking ground, we wouldn't beallowed to do it even at smallsoccer games.”

UK is No. 1. Due to the amount of
quality publications produced,the clinical psychology de-partment has achieved thehighest ranking in the nation.
The clinical psychologyprogram was ranked No. 1 inh-index in a study by LeslieMorey, a Texas A&M psy-chology professor. Thestudy, “Leading NorthAmerican Programs in Clini-cal Assessment Research:An Assessment of Produc-tivity and Impact,” was re-cently published in the Jour-nal of Personality Assess-ment.
“It’s generally just away to figure out how muchresearch you’re publishingand how much others are cit-ing it,” said Greg Smith, the
clinical psychology programdirector, about the h-indexranking system. “If you pub-lish research that nobodyever cites, you never reallyhave a good impact onevents or people.”
The two areas in the psy-chology department are clin-ical psychology and lab, orresearching, psychology.
The department studiesand publishes informationranging from mindfulness tothe effects of alcohol on anADHD individual, to generalpersonality disorders, Smithsaid.
“We are a very produc-tive department,” RichardMilich, a psychology profes-sor, said. “We are goodacross the board and that’swhy we score well,”
Graduate students, aswell as professors, get topublish their research and
findings. “All the publications I’ve
had have been working withprofessors. They provide ussupport and we do the re-search and data,” said WalterRoberts, a graduate studentand research assistant.
“It’s refreshing to collab-orate with professors,”Roberts said. “From experi-ence, I think it’s more pro-ductive to collaborate witheach other.”
The study rankingschools according to h-indexwasn’t the only study in re-cent history in which UKhas prevailed.
UK received No. 1 in a2008 study by the State Uni-versity of New York atStony Brook.
It measured schools onwhat they have actuallydone, not on their reputa-tions, Smith said.

WASHINGTON — Starting Friday, a ma-jor promotional effort will be unleashed byLucasfilm, eBay and Major League Baseballto support the cancer charity Stand Up to Can-cer (SU2C).
The promotion will coincide with thelaunching of “Star Wars: the Complete Saga”on Blu-ray.
SU2C was established by the Entertain-ment Industry Foundation in 2008 to raisefunds to speed up collaborative cancer re-search emphasizing getting the treatments topatients as swiftly as possible. The websitesays that 100 percent of public donations “willgo directly to cancer research.”
On the Internet, the “Star Wars” YouTubechannel will have a video, “Use the Force forGood,” where celebrity supporters encouragedonations by recreating classic scenes. Amongthe actors are comedians Zach Galifianakis,Ken Jeong, Seth Rogen and Emma Stone.
This month, Major League Baseball willbe promoting “Star Wars” themed nights atvarious ballparks which include costumedcharacters and exclusive T-shirts. To check on
whether your team is supporting the effort,check mlb.com/starwars
eBay offers “one-of-a-kind” items such asa 2012 Volkswagen Passat, like the one shownin the Super Bowl campaign of 2011 (avail-able in the U.S. only), and a dinner with SanFrancisco area filmmakers George Lucas,Francis Ford Coppola (“The Godfather”),Chris Columbus (“Harry Potter”) and JohnLasseter of Pixar and Disney, among others.
The auctions will be offered worldwide inthe U.S., U.K, Germany, France, Italy andSpain. They start Friday and end Sept. 23.
Also offered at Stand Up To Cancer’swebsite are a special line of “Star Wars” T-shirts with the SU2C’s upward arrow next to aStormtrooper and the words “Blast Cancer.”Aimed at men is a shirt that’s a riff off theiconic Hildebrand-design classic “Star Wars”poster with Luke Skywalker and Leia Organaon top of the words “Use the Force for Good.”For women, there’s a grey shirt with “YodaStands Up To Cancer.”

one.”UK spokesman Jay Blan-
ton said the sponsorship isnot going against universitypolicy.
“Sponsorship of an ath-letic event does not mean en-dorsement of a product orphilosophy by the universi-ty,” Blanton said. “Sponsor-ship simply means that theentity purchases time and ac-cess to the audience at theevent.”
With the political in-volvement and controversyof the subject, Boldman seesit differently.
“It concerns me thatthey’re being this aggres-sive,” she said, “What willthe industry gain?”
Bill Bissett, the presidentof the Kentucky Coal Asso-ciation, said the associationwanted to sponsor this par-ticular game because of thein-state rivalry.
“We as an industry needto communicate with thepopulation centers, Lexing-ton and Louisville,” he said.
Bissett said the associa-tion hopes to send the mes-sage that “4.1 million Ken-tuckians benefit from low-cost electricity thanks to coalproduction,” also adding thathalf of the proceeds from the43,000 Friends of Coal Ken-tucky license plates will begiven to UK students pursu-ing a career in coal-relatedfields.
While Boldman said she
and the Sierra Club fullysupport the coal mining jobsand economy, she said this isa big public relations move.She noted the continuingproblems with acid runoffand problems with the burn-ing of coal.
“Other campuses are re-tiring their coal-fired powerplants,” she said, “The uni-versity has an old one thatshould be retired.”
UK has also acceptedfunds from Big Coal to buildwhat will be named theWildcat Coal Lodge, a movethat prompted the renownedKentucky writer, WendellBerry, to pull his papersfrom UK archives. Thebuilding will include an ex-hibit on “the importance ofthe coal industry to the com-monwealth of Kentucky.”
Allie Kleinhenz, a nurs-ing senior, said there should-n’t be a controversy.
“At football games, theyadvertise for so many things,Kleinhenz said. “I think peo-ple are looking to have polit-ical arguments over it, but(the coal companies) do a lotfor us.”

UK Student Government unanimouslypassed its budget on Aug. 31 for the 2011-12school year.
SG will continue to fund student servicessuch as Tally Cats and Cats Cruiser. However,the budget contains many alterations from lastyear.
One of the most notable changes is a cutof more than $25,000 worth of presidentialdiscretionary funding.
SG President Micah Fielden said he cut thefund to “allow the senate as much oversight ofwhere the money is going” as possible.
“Instead of giving me the power of put-ting it in places, it gives senators a chance,” hesaid.
Though he decreased the fund, Fieldensaid the it still has $20,000 for expenses thatcome up in the year that aren’t originally bud-geted. He said he didn’t want to disguise any-thing.
“This is great because it shows that(Fielden) is being more transparent by want-ing the students to know what he is spendinghis money on,” said Eli Edwards, a College ofEducation senator.
Senators were pleased with how effi-ciently the process was carried out, especial-ly when compared to years past.
“Last year the budget process did not run
smoothly at all,” Edwards said, “which led toa two-and-a-half-hour long meeting filledwith debate and amendments to the budget,which were either defeated or vetoed.”
Jordan Plamp, a College of Business sen-ator, agreed that the efforts of Fielden andVice President Nikki Hurt have paid off.
“Micah and Nikki put forth a lot of workto be transparent. Students should know that,as Student Government, we are all lookingout for their money and making sure it isused correctly,” Plamp said.
Fielden created and presented the budg-et to the Senate at the Senate retreat, Ed-wards said. Fielden took senators’ com-ments into consideration, presented the fi-nal budget and it was passed at the Aug. 31meeting, he said.
Fielden also said executive salaries weredecreased from last year.
“We felt they were a little high,” he said,and that they weren’t an appropriate reim-bursment for their time. The executvesinclude the chief of staff, deputy chief of staffand the Wildcat Interest Group coordinator.
The positive dynamic among the Senateand administrators has left many hopeful fora successful school year.
“I'm very happy with the budget and howsmoothly this administration is working witheach other,” Plamp said.

“spectacular.”“The stadium looked like a sea of blue,”
he said.Struckov said in Germany they don’t have
university events like that; this was a differentsporting event to attend because in Germany
the popular sports are soccer, handball andvolleyball.
Overall, Struckov, Celik and Akyaziagreed that the UK football game on Satur-day was an amazing sporting experience andthat they would go to another game in the fu-ture.
The students, who are with the DiscoverUK German Fulbright Diversity Institute,leave two weeks from Sunday.

There are times when I am verythankful for our campus media, espe-cially the Kentucky Kernel. On
Wednesday eveningafter attending a classin the Seaton Center,I discovered myiPhone had beenstolen from my bagin my locker.
Just two weeksearlier on Sept. 1, theKentucky Kernel pub-lished a story aboutthe “Find My iPhone”application and howit assisted a group ofstudents whose itemswere stolen while
they were playing soccer on HagginField.
After reading the story in the Ker-
nel, I thought it might be a good idea toinstall this application just in case Iever misplaced my phone. I neverthought I would be using it to track athief or that I would ever be a victim oftheft.
When I realized my phone wasgone, I initially thought I might havejust left it at my desk without realizingit. I went back to my cubicle in ParkingStructure No. 2 and when my phonewasn’t there, I logged into me.com, theweb application Apple uses to locatedevices, and located my phone nearWoodland Park. I immediately calledUK Police and an officer was dis-patched to my location while I guidedUKPD over the phone.
The thief was apprehended in whatseemed to be about 20 minutes, and myiPhone was recovered. I would definite-ly recommend anyone who owns an
iPhone 4 running iOS 4.2 or later to in-stall the Find My iPhone applicationjust in case you ever really need it.
If anyone, student or staff, needshelp finding, installing or configuringthis application on your iPhone 4,please don’t hesitate to contact me viaemail or Facebook and I will be happyto assist you.
I truly believe that if I had not in-stalled this application on Sept. 1, myphone would be gone and I would havenever found it. Thanks again to theKentucky Kernel and to UKPD for theall the hard work they do to keep bothstudents and staff safe and informedabout current events and issues on andaround campus.

iPhone application leads toanother campus theft solved
letter to the editor
This afternoon I went to purchase a student ticketfor the UK vs. University of Louisville football game.I waited in line and walked up to the counter. They
ran my student ID and denied me aticket because I am “only a part-time student.”
ONLY a part-time student.I swallowed my frustration,
thanked the man, clenched my fistsand trudged back to my car so Icould get ready for work.
I am in the first semester of myfifth year at UK. Throughout mytime at this university, I’ve spentmy money, I’ve gone to class, I’veparticipated in campus events andmostly had a good time doing it.
Now, in my senior year, I only need a few credithours to graduate. Ergo, to balance my work scheduleso I can pay bills, I am attending as a part-time stu-dent.
In a perfect, more logical world, had the gentle-man behind the counter told me that since I was apart-timer I would have to pay 10 dollars instead of 5,I would have chuckled and said “no problem.” Afterall, my friends and girlfriend are attending the gameso what’s an extra 5 bucks?
Instead, I get to watch the game from my livingroom couch.
I don’t feel the need to quote the absurd number ofdollars I have spent and continue to spend at this uni-versity. Every student has to deal with his or her ownfinancial situation. But after four years of homework,work, all-nighters and proverbially “bleeding blue” allover my bank account, being denied student admis-sion to my own school’s football game against an in-state rival, for lack of a better term, royally pisses meoff.
I’m a student here. I’m spending a lot of money.Now my school is going to try to make me line up andbuy a general admission ticket like I go to Louisville.
I’m disappointed in you UK. VERY disappointed.

It is a cliche in gaming these days thatall first and third-person shooters featurebald space marines. Relic shatters thatcliche with “Warhammer 40,000: Space
Marine,” featuring aspace marine with hair!
All joking aside,Relic brings the originalspace marines from the“Warhammer 40,000”universe into the third-person shooter realmafter a long successfulbout with the “Dawn ofWar” real-time strategyseries.
Some gamers mightbe concerned by the“Warhammer 40,000”
brand as it is an old tabletop game with alot of inside lore behind it. I went in as arelative newcomer to the lore and cameaway with a great experience. The gametells a story that is self-contained withinthe game’s world without needing anyprior knowledge to enjoy it.
With that being said, fans of the“Warhammer 40,000” games will get
numerous references to past charactersand factions in the universe.
The player takes on the role of CaptainTitus, leader of a small group of Ultra-marines. It is their role to wipe out thearmy of orks (note: this is the correctspelling of ork in this universe) that haveinvaded the forge world.
What happens next is what I can reallysummarize as “Gears of War” meets“Dynasty Warriors.” “Space Marine” is athird-person shooter with a wide variety ofguns that help the player kill numerousugly orks with the utmost brutality and effi-ciency.
While “Gears of War” has a muchpraised cover system, “Space Marine”ditches the cover system for a “DynastyWarriors” style melee system that featuresthe infamous chainsword and thunder ham-mer. This allows for the most brutal of anygame in recent memory, with especiallyfantastic execution moves that are the onlyway to restore health. You read that right,the only way to restore health in “SpaceMarine” is to stomp an ork’s head in. Anybody who has played any shooterfrom the past five years will be able to
instantly pick up the game and enjoy it.The reason it elevates itself among itspeers is that it does not hold itself downwith trying to tell any kind of specialstory, even though the story in “SpaceMarine” is quite good. “Gears of War 2“flubbed with its horrible scene that wassupposed to make gamers cry. “SpaceMarine” is just pure, unadulterated funand it never tries to be anything it’s not.
While some may complain after yearsof being pampered with multiple gamemodes and multiple maps, the simplicityof the “Space Marine’s” multiplayermakes it that much more enticing. Thereare no killstreak perks or superfluous add-ons that try to enrich the experience.
When it comes down to it, all of“Space Marine” is just fun. It’s a love let-ter to what gaming is supposed to beabout. We can argue all we want aboutgames being an art form or the education-al benefits of games, but at the end of theday gamers just want to be entertained.“Space Marine” has enough entertain-ment value to bring down an ork and rel-ish chaos marine invasion at the sametime.

so, the line will once again have to make itwork despite injury problems that haveplagued the unit since training camp.
Clemons has shown the ability to turn or-dinary runs into big plays, but with an injury-filled offensive line in front of him, an inex-perienced stable of backs behind him on thebench and a strong Louisville run defense inacross from him, his new job will bemade that much more difficult.
Edge: Push. Clemons will have ahandful of exciting plays, but overthe course of the game he will belimited by Louisville's defense.
UK head coach Joker Phillips vs.Louisville head coach Charlie Strong
Phillips and Louisville head coach Char-lie Strong have more in common than mostthink, despite coaching opposing forces inthis bitter rivalry. The two African-Ameri-can coaches hired in the same year to coachthe two biggest football programs in the
state previously worked as coordinators inthe SEC. Both Phillips, a former UK playerand offensive coordinator, and Strong, for-mer Florida defensive coordinator under Ur-ban Meyer, understand the importance ofSaturday's matchup.
“There won’t be any surprises,” Phillipssaid in his weekly press conference Mon-day. “Like I say, it’s an in-state game thatwill be old-fashioned, no surprises, just twoteams that will try to bloody each other'snose.”
Edge: Phillips, thanks to the experienceon UK's roster. No one on UK's rosterhas ever lost to Louisville, while noone on Louisville’s roster has everbeaten UK. That advantage in experi-
ence will give Phillips the edge in thiscoaching matchup.
Overall edge: After slow starts by both teams in2011, football fans in the Bluegrass could be instore for one of the sloppiest Governor's Cupsin recent history. But both teams will enter thegame with something to prove and will play onanother level due to the magnitude of the rival-ry. UK has the edge at home by the narrowestof margins.

Myles Poole is part of abusy team each fall, but hedoesn’t mind the work. It’sthe opportunity to be in-volved with the sport heloves that motivates him tohelp the UK football pro-gram.
Poole is entering hisfourth year as equipmentmanager at UK. Helmets,cleats, jerseys and settingup drill programs are just afew of the responsibilitiesgiven to Poole throughoutthe season. Balancing hisjob and schoolwork is diffi-cult but rewarding.
“During a typical week,we are here at 6 a.m.,preparing for practice andsetting up everything for theplayers and coaches,” Poolesaid.
Poole is a part of a teambehind the scenes, one thatemploys 16 other equipmentmanagers just for footballpurposes. Two managers areassigned to each positiongroup on the football teamto help with practice drills.
Poole was designatedthis year to help the line-backer core. One drill inparticular is called the Buckdrill, which uses a long pad
on a sled that simulatesfighting off an offensivelineman.
“It makes it easier on thecoaches if we have the drillsset up for them, so they canstep right in and coach,”Poole said.
Being a senior and hav-ing worked with UK footballgoing on four years, one ofthe perks is attending roadgames. Poole has two on theradar this fall.
“Honestly I’m lookingforward to our trip to BatonRouge,” Poole said. “Also, Iam excited about Georgiaand experiencing ‘betweenthe hedges.’ The Southeast-ern Conference has very pas-sionate fan bases.”
Other advantages includebeing reimbursed for timespent working at the footballcomplex. Partial room andboard, along with tuitioncoverage are rewards for up-perclassmen who stick withUK football throughout theircollegiate career.
Poole was not able toplay big time college foot-ball out of high school, sohe came up with a differentstrategy before enteringUK.
“I told myself that if Ican’t be on the field, I want-ed to be on the sideline,”Poole said.
This move has been awonderful decision forPoole, who will have spentall four years helping UKfootball while finishing up adegree in kinesiology.
Having “blue in theblood” has been a long tradi-tion for Poole’s family, evenwith Louisville roots. Ac-cording to Poole, his parentsnever intended on their sonmissing a game or being aCardinal supporter.
“My parents have hadUK football season ticketssince the 70s,” Poole said. “Iwas at my first UK gamewhen I was four months ofage. I have never missed aUK football home game in21 years.”
Savoring his senior sea-son is high on the agenda forPoole. It appears that he hasenjoyed his stint so far withUK football.
“It’s a family atmospherearound here and everyone isreally nice,” Poole said. “It’sa privilege to get to knowthe coaches and players on apersonal basis.”
