Russell “Russ" Groves was
killed in a plane crash near
Bardstown, Saturday after-
noon.

“We are going to miss
his presence around our
school,” said architecture
senior Rachel Hardy

Groves acquired a Ph.D.

from the UK College of Edu-
cation. and was a graduate
from UK’s Architecture,
Law and Patterson schools.

“It is a devastating loss
for us, not just for the col-
lege, but because of the
man," said David Mohney,
dean of architecture.

"He was so talented in
so many ways. He had so
much respect across the
Commonwealth. It will be

impossible

quexinoion Corner stores offer
small town flavor

plan to build
residential,
retail areas

College town project
focuses on growth

By Jodi Dickey
CONTRIBUTING WRITER

Proposed convenience
stores around campus may
provide more than milk
and bread.

They play a part in the
connection of UK’s cam-
pus to Lexington’s down-
town.

These stores are a
component of the “college
town” concept, a combined
effort of UK and the Lex-
ington Downtown Authori~
ty. which will increase res-
idential areas, create jobs
and provide more retail
opportunities for the area.

Started in 2001, the
project has grown to in-

clude developments with ‘

outside firms and home-
town businesses.

Many of the plans in-
clude increasing residen-
tial space.

There are plans to
break ground for a new
dorm building that holds
about 150 beds on the Av-
enue of Champions later
this year, said Warren Den-
ny, university architect.

UK and the Lexington
Downtown Authority also
hope to include academic
facilities and parking facil.
ities in the development,
he said.

Current negotiations
are taking place with de-
velopers to increase resi-
dential areas along Martin
Luther King Boulevard.

Negotiations for con-
dos and a new parking
area will replace an exist~
ing parking lot between
High Street and Maxwell
Street. said Harold Tate,
president and executive di-
rector for the Downtown
Development Authority.

Independent groups
will do these renovations,
Tate said.

He also said they hope
to announce ahome-own-
ership plan for Lexington
residents soon, but could-
n’t give more details until
the plan was officially un-
veiled.

Employment and re-
tail are also included in
the “college town” con-
cept.

In general, the plan m-
cludes expanding profes

Hidden coves within strips.
Stores without a chain to call home.

Small corner stores populate the
UK campus, which may get more
such stores in the years to come as
part of UK and the city‘s “college
town" project. which focuses on
blending the two. It aims to increase
residential areas, create jobs and pm
vide more retail opportunities for the
area.

Here’s a glance at how three of
these stores conduct business and
compete in a fast-paced market.

Melodic decisions and harmo~
nious bargains are made daily on
campus at an independent retail
store.

CD Central, located at 377 S.
Limestone. buys and sells new and
used CDs, DVDs and vinyl.

Their goal is to introduce people
to various types of music that they
may not find in large nendy stores.
said Steve Baron, owner of CD Cen-
tral.

Organized by genre. shoppers
can find rock, blues. rap, bluegrass.
folk, techno country. alternative coun-
try, Lexington bands, etc.

CD Central has eight and a half
years experience providing UK stu-
dents and Lexington residents with a
broad spectrum of music.

It focuses on non-mainstream
music.

They carry a lot of independent

selections that are not found in chain
stores.

“We’re the WRFL of music re-
tail." Baron said, noting UK‘s student—
run radio station.

With competitors like Best Buy
and the Internet. marketing is very
important.

They sponsor events involving 10
cal bands and support public radio
adding variety and culture to the Lex-
ington area. Baron said.

He admits that all record stores
have been affected by downloading
music from the Internet.

CD Central is trying to use the In»
ternet as a tool to market music on
their Web site.

“People can download sample
songs to see if they might want to
buy it." Baron said. ”Its a new idea
for us. but we're trying it."

Although many patrons are UK
students. summer business does not
slow down that much.

There are more local residents
that come in through the summer be—
cause parking is easier. Baron said.

For Mark Anderson, a mechani-
cal engineering freshman, it was the
“cheap music. the used selections"
that made him stop in.

CD Central has hundreds of reg-
ular customers. Baron said. Some
come in more than once a week.

On average. they see a few hun-
dred people come into the store daily
he said.

Some to buy and some to just see
what they offer.

Athlete faces
misdemeanor
charges

UK basketball player Rave Moss was
arrested after altercation with police

By Keith Hautala
STAFF WRITER

UK basket-
ball sophomore
Ravi Moss was
arrested after an
altercation with
police Friday
night at a high
school football
game in Hop-
kinsville.

He is sched-
uled to be ar-
raigned Wednes-
day morning in
Christian County District Court on a mis-
demeanor charge of disorderly conduct.

According to the arrest report, Moss
was arrested after repeatedly refusing to
leave the game and arguing with police,
who escorted him to the exit.

Police also arrested Moss’s father.
Austin Moss of Hopkinsville.

The elder Moss tried to grab Chad
Grace, a Christian County sheriff 's deputy.
and attempted to prevent police from ar-
resting his son according to the arrest re-
port.

Austin Moss is the chairman of the
Christian County Board of Education and
vice president for human resources at Jen-
nie Stuart Medical Center.

Both men were taken to the Christian
County prison and were released approxi-
mately an hour later.

The arrests took place at Stadium of
Champions. home to both the Christian
County Colonels and the Hopkinsvilie
Tigers football teams.

Friday’s game ended the Colonels' four-
year losing streak to the Tigers and was
played in front of “one of the largest and
loudest crowds in the Stadium of Champi-
ons history“ according to a story in Hop—
kinsville‘s Kentucky New Era on Saturday.

“These football games are big social
events." said Jennifer P. Brown, a reporter
for Kentucky New Era. “People go to see the
games. but they also go to see friends and
hang out. A lot of what happens in the
stands has very little to do with the game."

UK officials say Moss's arrest will not
affect his ability to play basketball this
year

“Coach Smith is aware of the situation
and has met with Ravi and his parents.“
said Scott Stricklin, spokesman for UK’s
athletic department. “He believes this is an
isolated incident and it will not affect
Ravi’s status as a member of our basketball
team.“

Members of the Moss family declined
to comment Monday evening.

Moss was a four-year starter for Univer-
sity Heights Academy, averaging 21 points
and 10 rebounds per game as a senior. As a
freshman guard for UK last year, he played
28 minutes in 12 games. scoring nine points
and making four rebounds total.

Picture this: New trend -

moves away from film

Sold: 14.3 million digital camera models in 2003, group

says digital will eventually replace film sales

By Nichole Fernandez-Cm
CONTRIBUTING IRITEII

If you ever paid for a roll
of film and found that you
didn't like half of your pic-
tures or that some of them
didn't come out the way you
had hoped a digital camera
‘ may be the best for you or
is it?

According to a new re-
port by Info Trends Re-
search, a rise in digital cam-
era sales will eventually
cause digital cameras to re-
place sales of reloadable film
cameras.

Forecasting unit sales at
14.3 million for 2003, three-
megapixel models are ex-
pected to be in the forefront
accounting for nearly 50% of
the sales.

“Digital cameras offer a
higher quality than reload-
able cameras," said Best Buy
employee Terry Lipscomb.

“Though they are more
money, developing costs are
completely eliminated, plus
you’ll never have a bad pic-
ture."

Though digital cameras
eliminate costs for film pro-
cessing, they are still very
costly. At Best Buy, an elec-
tronics and home appliance
retailer on Nicholasville
Road, digital cameras aver-
age between $300-$400, and
an additional $100-$200 for
accessories.

Yet with stores centering
on digital camera customers.

according to Info Trends Re-
search, they are sure to fol-
low shortly

Best Buy for instance is
no longer offering film pro-
cessing for 35 mm and in-
stead will only offer develop-
ment for digital pictures.

“With standard (film)
cameras the developing
process is half the fun," said
psychology sophomore
Michael Shadoan. “What you
get with a reloadable camera
is a kind of hands on experi-
ence. allowing you to overex-
pose and underexpose your
pictures.

“Though digital cameras
are more convenient, photog-
raphy as an art form will
continue to use reloadable
film, even though prices for
reloadable film may drop."

Other stores will also be
adding digital cameras but
have opted to still include re-
loadable cameras for their
customers.

“35 mm will still largely
be in use especially for those
who are more acquainted
with them,” said Circuit
City’s technology products
specialist. Shane Blotter.

“Digital cameras are
practical for the average con-
sumer or family household.
The options provided by digi-
tal cameras especially appeal
to families since they can
self-print and share their pic-
tures via email."

Blotter said 35 mm
would continue to remain in

the market since they pro-
duce professional photos
and is sometimes easier to
use.

“Right now, Nikon and
Canon is our top selling re~
loadable camera," Blotter
said. “Nikon is more for pro-
fessional use and Canon is
for the average consumer.
For digital cameras, a Nikon
or Olympus is best."

With reloadable cameras
averaging $350-$400, a digital
camera can range anywhere
from $150-$600.

Though single-use digi-
tal cameras are also expected
to enter into the market, ac-
cording to Info Trends Re-
search, disposable cameras
are expected to continue in
their sales.

“It's much easier to use
a regular camera.“ said psy-
chology freshman. Ashley
Carr. “I would never invest
in a digital camera and actu-
ally use disposable cameras
more often than not."

Newspapers are also
turning away from their tra-
ditional roots in favor of a
more digital route.

“When I worked at the
News Graphic. covering all
Scott‘s County news, we used
a Nikon D1.“ said journalism
sophomore, Shannon Cov-
ington. “Though digital cam-
eras are a big investment,
eventually all newspapers
will turn towards digital use
due to practicality."

SHOPPING FOR DIGITAL:
What to look for

Best Buy employee, Ter-
ry Lipscomb, recommends

four criteria for purchasing
a digital camera: zoom, lens
quality. easy usage and buy-
ing your camera at a retail
store.

“Personally I would nev-
er recommend buying a cam-
era online,“ he said. “It's
much easier and more reli-
able knowing that you can
deal with a person in a store
if something goes wrong."

“Especially if you buy a
camera that is refurbished.
In that case it’s better to
throw the camera away than
to pay repair costs for it."

Circuit City technology
production specialist, Shane
Blotter recommends addi-
tional information to consid-
er: versatility. durability.
megapixels — the higher they
are the higher the quality.

These key points will
help limit a search. but can
vary for each situation or
person.

Digital cameras are not
cheap. but most likely the
consumer find something
that appeals to their photo-
graphic needs.

Lexington

native's new skate documentary debuts

in her hometown; She hopes to provide insight

‘Stoked' recalls the rise
and infamous fall of
‘Gator,’ popular 80$
skate boarder

Crystal Little
ASSISTANT KEG EDITOR

The Kentucky Theatre
welcomed back a former pa-
tron Friday night — with
the state premiere of her
latest documentary film.
“Stoked: The Rise and Fall
of Gator."

“If it weren‘t for the
Kentucky (Theatre), I hon-
estly don‘t know if I’d be
making movies today.“ said
Helen Stickler, a documen-
tary filmmaker originally
from Lexington.

The Henry Clay High
School graduate became in-
terested in making movies
as a teenager. As an early
filmmaker, Stickler had a
few setbacks, but perse-
vered.

“My grandma had gone
to look at real estate and got
a Super 8 camera for doing
it." Stickler said.

“I went out with a bud-
dy of mine and we shot a
short film, went to the drug-
store to get it developed and
the film was completely
black. I wanted to do it all
over again and get it right.“

Stickler was inspired by
such films as Hal Ashby’s
“Harold and Maude" and
“Lino Brocka" and Ulli Lom-
mel’s “Strangers in Par-
adise" while she was in high
school.

“I can’t count the times I
saw Harold and Maude at the
Kentucky (Theatre).” Stick-
ler said. “It was a retreat for
me — such a great place.“

Stickler graduated from
the Rhode Island School of
Design with a degree in film
and video and has studied
film and digital audio at The
Art Institute in Chicago.
She‘s also worked for MTV.

Her latest project,
“Stoked.” chronicles the life
of bad-boy California skate-
boarder Mark “Gator” Ro-
gowski.

At the height of his pop-

.ularity, Rogowski was one of

the most celebrated profes-
sional skaters of the 19805.
insofar that his fame rivaled
Tony Hawk‘s.

In 1991. however, Ro-
gowski became infamous —
he murdered 21-year-old Jes-
sica Bergston and disposed
of her corpse in the Califor-
nia desert.

Rogowski turned himself
in to authorities and con-
fessed to his crime; he is now
serving 31 years to life in
prison.

Stickler was drawn to

Rogowski‘s story because of
all the controversy sur-
rounding the details.

“I was intrigued because
there were a lot of conflict-
ing urban legends around
Gator‘s story.“ Stickler said.
“Nobody really knew what
happened or why he did it."

Stickler moved out to
California to shoot the film
and talk to Rogowski.

“It was a hard, contro-
versial subject.“ Stickler
said. “Visiting Gator in jail
was definitely weird. I went
to California. and then went
to the jail. He agreed to see
me and took the visit — it
was really heavy. Really
sad.“

Stickler said making
“Stoked” has been a wonder-
ful experience for her. de-
spite the length of time it
has taken to realize the film.

“‘Stoked' took six years
to produce because it was all
completely independent and
self-funded." Stickler said. “I
was working at MTV and do-
ing the documentary part.
time. saving money. Eventu-
ally, I quit MTV and was able
to totally devote myself to
the project."

Stickler also said that.
for her, the greatest part of
filmmaking is the people she
meets.

“The people are awe-
some." she said. “Stoked was

a great experience. I got to
speak with a lot of profes-
sional skaters. and talking
with Tony Hawk was ab-
solutely amazing. He was so
sweet and articulate."

Stickler had feared
Hawk wouldn‘t want to get
involved with her project
since it showcased many
negative aspects of skate-
boarding

“He totally wasn‘t wor-

-ried about bad (public rela-

tions)." Stickler said. “He
just wanted to get Gator‘s
story out there -— this is a
guy he‘d practically grown
up with. They even toured
together for five years or
more.“

“Stoked” opened in New
York and Los Angeles on
Aug. 22 and has received crit-
ical acclaim.

“So far. it‘s gotten some
amazing reviews,“ Stickler
said.

Stickler was excited
about coming back to Lex~
ington and seeing her film at
the Kentucky Theatre.

“It's going to be nice to
come home." she said. “I
hope everyone enjoys the
film. 'Stoked’ is ultimately a
tragic story. I just tried to
get a good cross-section of
skaters to break out the dif-
ferent stereotypes people
have.“
