Martin added that much of the tuition
increase depends on the final state budget,

a process that won't end until late this

it, it’s difficult" to gauge an increase, she
said.

But if last year serves as any indica-

are proposals that are far from final. Todd
said.

“We do not yet know what final state ap-

Ahead 34-33 at the half. Florida
exploded out of the locker room
with an 11-1 run and never looked
back.

The Cats managed to get the
margin to single digits just once the rest of
the game. when Joe Crawford sank a pair of
free throws for two of his game‘high 21 points
to close the gap to 4941.

“We didn't really have the energy we
needed at the start of the second half." said
head coach Tubby Smith.

“Kentucky has a lot of tradition: it’s unbe-

for that.

“When we play Kentucky, I see it in our
team’s eyes, we‘re nervous. But it’s a good
nervous. We say, ‘We’ve got to be
ready because they‘ll blow us out.‘ "

Yesterday marked the third
time in a four-game losing streak to
Florida that the Cats fell by 15

dominant in the second half that
the second largest Rupp Arena

Richard credited halftime strategies for
the Gators’ superior second half.

“We went in at halftime and adjusted and

Part of South Limestone Street will tem-

UK's student-run campus radio station.

next year's general manager until next week
or after Spring Break.

The original delay took place after WRFL
General Manager John Edwards amended
the constitution. taking away voting powers
of the general manager. That change added
the general manager and the radio stations
faculty adviser. telecommunications profes-
sor John Clark. to the non-voting advisory
panel.

Now, Edwards is postponing the selection
again because of scheduling conflicts among
the station's staff participating in the selec-
tion process.

“I can‘t get everybody's schedule to coin-
cide for this week. so we're just going to
wait," Edwards said.

Because of schedule differences. Edwards
also said the exact time of selection is still up
in the air.

“Either we'll get something done over
Spring Break or the week after." he said.

The application deadline , which passed
Feb. 22 ~ is not being pushed back. Edwards
said.

For the three applicants the wait will be
longer. but Edwards said it shouldn‘t have
any real effect on the selection process.

“1 think it‘s going to be fine." Edwards
said. “I don‘t think there's anything to worry
about.

“it's not really a big deal." he said. “No

proposal in January. UK would get a $4.49 million

The deadline is fast approaching for
students interested in entering the
fourth-annual Idea Fair Business Con—
cept Competition, held early next month.

The Idea Fair. hosted by the UK Entre~
preneurs Club and the Gatton College of
Business and Economics, is a competi-
tion in which UK students develop and
present their own business ideas before a
panel of expert judges.

The deadline for entrance is Friday
and nearly 40 local entrepreneurs. ven-
ture capitalists. community leaders and
business development experts have been
selected to serve as judges at various
phases of the competition. The grand
prize winner will receive $1,500.

"Aside from how great this will look
on a resume. students will get feedback
from the judges. who are successful busi-
ness leaders in the community and in the
nation." said Gabriel Wilmoth. associate
director of the Von Allmen Center for
Entrepreneurship at UK and coordinator
of the Idea Fair. “It is a great opportunity
for students to take the initiative and re-
ally showcase their creativity“

An information session held Thurs-
day in the Gatton College of Business

Business plan + Idea Fair : student Proiit

and Economics gave students the oppor-
tunity to obtain competition guidelines
and to have any questions answered.

“(Thursday) was about clarifying the
details of the competition for those who
are interested in submitting an entry and
helping them with any ideas they have
come up with," Wilmoth said.

The competition is open to students
in all majors and of any academic rank.
Students are encouraged to enter in
teams. but individuals are welcome as
well.

Teams entering the competition will
be offered an all-day workshop March 25
with nationally-recognized entrepreneur-
ship experts Mack Davis and Courtney
Price to help them assess their business
concepts.

Agriculture economics senior Chelsy
Hopperton entered the competition last
year after attending the workshop.

“The workshop was an amazing expe-
rience for me," Hopperton said. “It was
time-consuming. but completely worth it.
We were exposed to such a diverse group
of individuals all interested in learning
more about business development."

Hopperton. who plans to enter again
this year. said the Idea Fair encourages
students to think about concepts they
may have never before considered.

   

“Regardless of what career path they
may choose. it is an experience that helps
you to gain a better perspective of mar-
keting and finance in our everyday lives."
Hopperton said. “You learn how to devel-
op a business and can get expert advice
from successful people already active in
the entrepreneurship market."

Wilmoth encouraged students not to
let the Friday deadline intimidate them.

“This doesn‘t mean that the plan they
submit next week will be the same one
they are judged on in April," Wilmoth
said. “I expect their ideas to change; they
should change. I hope they get better"

 Iran. Enrichmnt of

uranium will go on

ByJolin Duiszewslti
msmoazsmts

TEHRAN, Iran — Iran‘s
chief nuclear negotiator Sun-
day said his country stood
ready to increase the scale of
its uranium enrichment if its
nuclear program was formal-
ly put before the UN Security
Council this week.

Appearing relaxed and
confident during a Tehran
news conference despite
mounting pressure from the
international community, ne~
gotiator Ali Larijani said that
Iran was willing to talk about
many aspects of its nuclear
program but that it would not
suspend the small-scale en-
richment activities it began
this month.

He spoke on the eve of a
key meeting of the lnterna-
tional Atomic Energy Agency
in Vienna, Austria, and on the
same day that US. Ambas-
sador to the United Nations
John Bolton said Iran faced
“tangible and painful conse-
quences" if it did not bow to
the wishes of the internation-
al community and cease en-
richment.

Fielding questions for
nearly two hours, Larijani in-
sisted that Iran’s program
was for peaceful purposes per-
mitted under the Nuclear
Non-Proliferation Treaty and

that Iran was not harboring
secret aims to produce nu-
clear weapons.

“Nuclear research is
lran’s right, and we are not
going to give that up," he said.

Iran has been seeking to
convince the international
community that negotiations
under the rubric of the IAEA
should be given more time to
succeed before the issue is re-
ferred to the Security Coun-
cil.

Once the issue is at the Se-
curity Council. the five per-
manent members m the Unit-
ed States, Britain, France,
Russia and China —- could
work to impose sanctions on
Iran’s government, although
diplomats say that is not ex-
pected to take place right
away.

Such measures would be
counterproductive, Larijani
argued, saying they would
compel Iran to reduce its co-
operation with the IAEA and
step up its fledgling enrich-
ment activities.

“If the nuclear dossier is
reported . . . we will certainly
resume uranium enrichment.
We wished to reach conclu-
sion and eliminate the ambi-
guities through dialogue and
understanding. But if the oth-
er side resorts to force, we
will use our own approach,"

he said.

Larijani hinted that Iran
might react by restricting its
oil exports to drive up inter-
national prices.

“If conditions change. this
may become effective," he
said.

In spite of Iran’s show of
calm, the country has been in
overdrive to convince the in-
ternational community that it
does not deserve to be put un-
der a sanctions regime. Lari-
jani held talks in Moscow and
Vienna in recent days, and
President Mahmoud Ah-
madinejad toured Muslim
countries in Asia to drum up
sympathy for Iran’s position.

Iran says it is willing in
principle to accept a Russian
offer to have uranium en-
riched on an industrial scale
on Russian soil at a joint facil-
ity, as long as Iran will eventu-

. ally be allowed to do so on its

own territorylt accuses the
United States of trying to sab-
otage the Russian plan.

Western countries say
they do not trust Iran to limit
enrichment to the level need-
ed for energy production.
With a few adjustments, the
enrichment process that pro-
duces civilian fuel can be
used to make weaponsgrade
material.

 

Calif. concert turns into riot

8y Arin Gencer
LOS ANGELES rmts

SAN BERNARDINO,
Calif. — Five people were in-
jured and 15 were arrested
Saturday night after police
responded to a stabbing at a
San Bernardino punk-rock
concert and ultimately
clashed with concertgoers,
San Bernardino authorities
said.

The stabbing victim.
whose name has not been re
leased, remained in the hos-
pital Sunday, said Sgt. Dale
Blackwell of the city's police
department. Four officers
and another concertgoer also
suffered injuries, Blackwell
said. The officers were treats
ed at a hospital and released.
he added.

Two police cars were de-
stroyed. Blackwell said. and

 

four others had minor dam-
age. Nearby businesses also
experienced “significant
damage." he said, as concert—
goers smashed windows and
ransacked some establish-
ments.

Officers arrested people
for offenses ranging from
public drunkenness to as-
sault with a deadly weapon
and burglary. Blackwell said.

The concert featured sev.
eral popular bands. includ-
ing The Adicts, Vice Squad
and GBH.

San Bernardino police re-
ceived a call reporting a beat-
ing at the concert. Blackwell
said. That was quickly up-
graded to a stabbing. he said.
When six officers and a su-
pervisor arrived at the scene
and attempted to reach the
victim, the crowd. estimated
at several thousand. turned

“hostile toward the police,”
he said, and they were forced
to retreat.

“Officers started receiv-
ing rocks and bottles," and
took a defensive position.
Blackwell said. “The crowd
just kept surging on."

San Bernardino police
called for assistance from
neighboring agencies. More
than 190 officers ended up at
the scene, the sergeant said.
representing ten different
agencies. including the Cali-
fornia Highway Patrol and
the Claremont, Fontana and
Pomona police departments.

San Bernardino police
shot tear gas outside. Black-
well said. and officers from
other departments also shot
bean-bag rounds. which are
less lethal than regular bul-
lets.

Mogwai made me deaf - and I love it

By Nathan Thatcher

KERNEL MUSIC CRITIC

As I was walking into the Dame Fri-
day night to see Mogwai and Growing.
purely out of habit. I silenced my cell
phone. And thank God for that. because
a phone ringing would have entirely
overpowered the performance and ru-
ined everything (insert sarcastic
smirk),

Actually. the only things getting ru-
ined at the Dame were the fans. or their
hearing. anyway As one of the unfortuA
nate. partially deaf souls to disregard
the earplug salesman. I can confidently
say the show was just a little on the loud
side. But if Mogwai created the last
sounds I ever heard. I think I‘d be com-
fortable with that. Dominic Aitchison
(bass). Stuart Braithwaite (guitar). Mar-
tin Bulloch (drums). Barry Burns (gui—
tar keyboards/flute) and John Cum-
mings (guitar) of Mogwai played to a
stuffy throng of peacefully-inebriated
ladies and gents on Friday. and the
crowd adored them.

The quintet ventured all the way
from Glasgow Scotland. on an extensive
US. tour to promote their new album
"Mr. Beast." which goes on sale tomor-
row. Joe Denardo and Kevin Doria of
Growing. an impressive instrumental
guitar band from Washington state. per-
fectly set the table for Mogwai with
their very own synthetically enhanced
guitar assault (lullaby. which vacillated
between dreamy echoed melodies and
furious salvos of explosive noise. They
came and went without saying a word.
but left an impression (and a constant
ringing sound) with the audience.

And then there was Mogwai. Braith-
waite curtly introduced the band. and
they immediately started to roar with
“Glasgowmegasnake." a fast. violent
new track from "Mr. Beast." But if
you‘re unfamiliar with the sound. don‘t
let the noisiness frighten you away. be-
cause this group offers much more than
the uber-loud guitar and drum soup
that you‘d find in this song.

Mogwai manages to create a
thoughtful balance between very loud.
blunt-force movements and very quiet.
subtle movements within each song.
The next song to follow the noisy open»
er was “Yes! I Am A Long Way From
Home." a song as gentle and innocuous
as a warm blanket. which features some
taps on a xylophone that would've been
all but inaudible if used in a different
song.

There is no real overall sound of
Mogwai. only some enduring tones and
rhythms that are shifted around and
patched together in different ways. and
many of the songs on Mr. Beast sounded
very reticent of their past songs.
Though it’s hard to tell the difference
between some of their songs. the famil-
iar flavor is still a very good one. and as
the old adage goes. if it ain't broke.
don‘t for it.

During a quiet spot in between
songs. one of the fans. obviously a
