Caffeine

Staple of
life

Do you suffer from
chronic CAD? Do you
suspect that you
have friends
suffering from CAD?
Thousands of
students just like you
have fallen victim to
what I like to call
CAD, or Caffeine
Alertness Disorder. If
you are concerned
that one of your
friends may have
fallen victim to CAD,
but you’re not sure
how to tell, ask
yourself these
questions.

is there a coffee cup or
Mountain Dew can
that appears to have
fused itself to his
hand?

Does she often consume
large quantities of
caffeine to stay alert
and focused?

Have you ever entered
his room and feared
for your life because
the ominously large
mountain of soda
cans in the corner of
their rooms seem to
be swaying in the
breeze?

Does her mood sway
from being
annoyingly peppy to
just annoying
depending on how
the caffeine is
flowing at the time?

Does he often find it
hard to maintain
proper hygiene
without a case of
soda in the room?

It is often easier to
identify CAD victims
by the withdraw
habits they acquire
when not consuming
caffeine. These
include but are not
limited to

A proposed sewage pipeline
at Lexington's Jacobson Park
has sparked dissent for commu-
nity members and UK students.

A hearing on the proposal at
1:30 pm. today will allow sup-
porters and opponents to voice
their views.

Those who oppose the sewer
line say it threatens the city's
water supply and raises the like-
lihood of future construction in
what some consider the city's
most pristine park.

“It‘s about sewage in the wa~
ter system." said Don Pratt. an
opponent of the proposal and a
candidate for one of the at- large
Urban County Council posi
tions. ‘Your water supply is
threatened. .and the future
students of UK may

 

lose their park.“

David Gabbard. assistant
municipal environmental engi-
neer. said the park‘s reservoir
provides 10 to 25 percent of Lex-
ington's drinking water. The
proposed plan would include
burying a 12 inch sewage
pipeline under the reservoir.

Many fear the pipeline
could leak.

“As a homeowner I know

Yanarella. director of the UK

gram. “No matter how serious

Possible anthrax links in deaths

Postal workers: Two die, two others hospitalized;

anthrax most likely the cause, officials say

WASHINGTON Anthrax
probably killed two postal work-
ers from a facility that delivers
mail to Congress and left two
more hospitalized. officials said
Monday as the nation suffered
fresh casualties in the deaths war

‘The mail and our employees
have become the target of terror-
ists' said Postmaster General
John Potter.

Health officials also ex-
pressed concem about as many as
nine other Washington area pa
tients who have exhibited symp-
toms consistent with the disease
The officials did not say whether
any worked for the postal service.

With deaths claiming addi-
tional lives. Washington. D. C..
health officials issued an urgent
call for 2. 000 workers at the city' 5
central Brentwood mail facility to

undergo screening for the disease.
and stoutly defended the decision
not to order tests last week.

"I think they moved quickly.
as quickly as they could.” said
Tom Ridge. the nation's homey
land security director. But some
postal employees expressed anger
that officials didn't order testing
when an anthraxlaced letter
showed up last Monday at Senate
Majority Leader Tom Daschle‘s
office.

Congressional officials said
the House and Senate would re
convene on Tuesday. although
their sprawling office buildings
on Capitol Hill would remain
shut. Lt. Dan Nichols of the Capt
tol Police said lawmakers would
have offsite work space in nearby
buildings.

In all. officials have tallied a

suspected three deaths and nine
other confirmed infections from
anthrax nationwide. including six
cases of the skin variety and the
other three the more dangerous
inhalation type.

Nearly six weeks after terror-
ists hijacked airliners and struck
New York and Washington. and
with American warplanes bomb-
ing Afghanistan. Ridge said the
nation was fighting two fronts in
the same war. "There's a battle-
field outside this country and
there‘s a battlefield inside this
country." he said.

On a day of rapidly unfolding
events. Potter said the postal ser-
vice had stopped cleaning its ma-
chinery with blowers a proce-
dure that could have caused
lethal anthrax spores to spread
through the air. He also said
equipment was being purchased
that can eradicate and sanitize
the mail,"

Earnhardt's crew chief fined

DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. __., Dale Earn-
hardt Jr. gets to keep his victory in the EA Sports
500 at Talladega. Ala. but crew chief Tony Eury
Sr. was fined 525.000 Monday by NASCAR for a
rule violation. The team's No. 8 Chevrolet was
found to be 1/8—inch lower than the minimum
height of 51 inches during a routine postrace in-
spection Sunday. Several crew chiefs said the
variance would have made virtually no differ-
ence in the car's on-track performance. The dis-
crepancy was announced several hours after the
race and long after Earnhardt and the most of his
team had left the Alabama track for their North
(‘arolina homes. NASCAR said it never consid'
ered stripping Earnhardt of his victory and giv-
ing it to second-place finisher Tony Stewart.
"That has never happened in Winston Cup rac-
ing." Jim Hunter, vice president of corporate
communications for NASCAR. said Monday.
“The philosophy is when people leave the race on
Sunday night they need to know who won."
Earnhardt‘s team had no comment Monday.

Armstrong said Wooldridge indicated he planned

ited Louisville last week. and Armstrong said
he‘s confident Wooldridge left impressed by the
city‘s plans for a massive downtown revitaliza-

cussion between the casting
directors and eight to 15
prospective cast members.

“We‘ve been getting some
really interesting home tapes
from people in Kentucky."
said Morgan Fahey. supervis-
ing casting director for "Real
World." “We are just looking
for interesting people."

Fahey and her crew have
the difficult job of picking a
cast that will be interesting
and will interact. The crew
must have the knowledge to
determine who stands out
from a crowd of 1.000-plus that
shows up at open calls and
from the thousands of tapes
the show receives every year.

“We're looking for a com-
bination of personality and
charisma. We want people
who can be themselves in
front of a camera." Fahey said.

While it's hard to pinpoint
what exactly draws a person
to the casting crew. it is possi-
ble to hurt your chances.

“If someone is completely
rude and disrespectful at the
open call table. that's kind of a
turnoff. If they try to talk only

to me and no one else on the
panel. it shows they are inter-
ested in something other than
the prospect of selfdiscovery,"
Fahey said.

Usually one cast member
each season causes quite a bit
of trouble in the house. Fahey
said while the crew doesn't
necessarily strive to cast a sea-
sonal “troublemaker,” conflict
can prove beneficial to the
housemates.

"You don't learn anything
about yourself if you’re not
challenged." she said.

Prospective cast members
go through a series of inter-
views if they are called back.
They are reminded that the
show is a pretty invasive
process and that secrets that
are a big part of their lives are
usually not kept under wraps.

Dyas doesn't have an issue
with the privacy.

"I‘d like to freak my par-
ents out a little bit by being on
the show." she said. “They’d
learn different things about
me.

compared to other risks in the
area." A 4-foot diameter
pipeline runs through the
reservoir.

The additional pipeline is
also the safest method because
it eliminates the need for
pump stations. Gabbard said.
Pump stations are prone to
failure. allowing sewage to
overflow and leak.

Gabbard said he believes
the reservoir will not be

5 drinkable in the next 15 to 20

years because of contamina-
tion from nearby development
projects.

Both sides of the issue will

porting a desire for preserva-
tion, the other a desire for de-
velopment. But the protesters

members are listening.

sive and have not supported pub

cil chambers at 200 Main St.

As an intern for the Ken-

spent her summer as a mascot

"fair bears" across the state.

Montica Carpenter, an inte-

tions senior. said the internship
was an experience

Carpenter‘s internship was
an experience she said she
would never forget. a

“I have lots of stories to
tell." she said. “It was so much
fun. I even got to wear the bear
costume a couple of times."

In addition to earning a
salary, Carpenter also received
three hours of college credit
through UK‘s Office of Experi-
ential Education.

The office, located at the
Stuckert Career Center on Rose
Street, offers students of any
major the opportunity to earn
academic credit. work in group

settings and observe profession-
als at work.

“The idea behind experien-
tial education and service
learning is to prepare students
for the future." said Fred Marr.
a pro am coordinator.

e office is open to all UK
students who are interested in
finding internships during the
school year and summer.

“We would like to see every
UK student [here]," said Louise
Stone, the director of the office.

With the help of the Office of
Experiential Education. stu-
dents can decide which intern
ships are right for them.

“In the future I want to do
event planning and this [intern-
ship] confirmed my interest in
this area." Carpenter said. As
an intern. Carpenter worked in
public relations and media for
the fair. hiring the bears and
scheduling events the bears
would attend.

Many colleges at UK allow

for internships. and the intern-

ships offered through the

variety of majors. Most colleges
allow for 48 hours of work to
equal one credit hour. Marr
said.

The program usually in-
terns about 300 students each
semester and 100 students dur-
ing the summer. To be eligible
for internships. students must
first attend an orientation ses-
sion. Orientation sessions are
offered almost weekly, and stu-
dents can visit room 116 of the
Stuckert Career Center to pick
up a schedule.

Before considering any in-
ternship. Stone suggested stu-
dents come by the office and
find out more information on
the specific field they are inter-
ested in and on the opportuni—
ties for college credit.

“Students should look for
clearly-defined job experiences.

pology junior.

All proceeds are being do-
nated to the Revolutionary As-
sociation of the Women of
Afghanistan, an organization
whose self~described goal is
“struggling for peace. freedom.
democracy and women's rights
in fundamentalism-blighted
Afghanistan.“

Sanders said response for
the event was overwhelmingly
positive from students and pro-
fessors. She said some profes-
sors were even using the bake
sale to spark class discussions
on the issue.

Breaking another stereo-
type. the goods for sale were
not just baked by women.

“We even had men donate
balaed goods to sell,“ Sanders
saI .

One customer agreed with
the group‘s belief that pay
should be determined by the
job and not the gender.

“It would be much more ef-
ficient to change pay rather
than change prices for women.“
said Will Kirkland. a mechani-
cal engineering freshman.

Patriotic calendar includes UK photograph

By Casey Hamilton
STAFF WRITER

Despite the predictable out
come. this year's UK-Florida
football game has earned a
cameo in history.

During the game. more
than 60.000 members of the
crowd stood holding American
flags while singing “God Bless
America.“ A freelance photog-
rapher for Reuters, John Som-
mers II. photographed the
scene. and the image has been
published in the national calen-
dar “Glory."

The picture will be dis—
played along with others of fire-
fighters. soldiers and citizens.

“It really was a unifying ex-
perience that brought both
sides together. even at a foot-
ball game." said Jenna Goggin.
an education junior who attend-
ed the game.

Brooks Downing. director
of media relations for UK Ath-
letics. said he realized the possi~
bility for a patriotic display at
the game when planning for it.

“We were going to pass
around little flags with sticks
on them. but then we realized
we wouldn't have enough and
so we just printed out flags on
paper and it was a big hit."
Downing said.

Other changes around the
stadium were made at the game

to recognize the importance of
the event.

“Usually we have flags for
the opposing team hanging
around the stadium. and we
changed them to be all Ameri-
can flags." Downing said.

The calendar is now being
sold with the majority of pro-
ceeds going to widows and or-
phans of the deceased firefight-
ers and police officers.

The Commonwealth Stadi-
um photograph can be scene on
the December calendar.

“We knew it was going to
be a good photograph." Down
ing said. “The day after it was
taken. it appeared on the front
page of the Toledo newspaper.

and then it was on the wire and
it just went around."

Where to buy it

The calendar "Glory" is now
on sale at Lexington's Fayette
Mall on Nicholasville Road for $l0.

The picture, which shows more
than 60,000 fans holding flags at
the UK-Florida game at
UK's Commonwealth Stadium, is
featured as the photograph for
the month of December.

A percentage of profits from
the sale of the calendar go to
relatives of deceased firefighters
and police officers.
