Mens soccer breaks into top-25

Team ranks school
record-tying 20th in
coaches poll for
first time since 2002

By Chris Miles

cmltesOkyEEEhElzthn

The UK men‘s soccer team is
ranked 20th nationally in the new Na-
tional Soccer Coaches Association of
America poll this week. ending a
drought of two unranked seasons.
This bolsters one of the best starts for
the team in school history.

The current ranking matches
UK‘s 2002 ranking in the NSCAA,
the highest in team history.

“I try not to think about it." head
coach lan Collins said of the ranking.
“It's really early. but it‘s better to be
in it than not be in it. It‘s a good

start."

So far this season the Cats (Li—(H)
have dominated most of their oppov
nents. UK has averaged 2.l3 goals
per game. while only allowing 0.46
goals.

Collins feels
NSCAA rank—
ing is not a
good measure-
ment of the
where the team
stands.

“ W e ‘ r
making strides.
but we have a
long way to
go." he said.

Collins said
he told the team
about the rank
ing brieﬂy in
practice yesterday, but also told them
not to pay attention to it. especially
the younger players who might get
caught up in the high national place—
ment.

“It‘s where you ﬁnish. not where

that the current

you start." Collins said.

(‘oach Collins hopes that UK will
remain a constant in the rankings and
said that it was the team‘s goal early
on to remain in the top 20 and reach
the NCAA toumament this season. He
said that if UK were in the saute posi-

tion in the nation—

al rankings at the

end of the season.

it would be a bet-
acconiplish‘
ment than where
the team currently
stands.

Right now.
the (‘ats have put
the ranking to the
hack of their
minds and set
their sights on
tonight‘s game
against Georgetown College. a match
they won 4-0 last year.

“We‘re focused on the next tWo

'I‘I'Ie DiSII

By Yuki Noguchi
THE WASHINGTON POST

WASHINGTON —chch-
nology is taking the middle-
man out of the music busi-
ness. giving artists a bigger
array of tools to get their

songs in the MP3 players of

potential fans around the
world.

That trend is hurting the
classic record store chains.
such as Tower Records. and
thousands of independent
stores. but it‘s also opening
doors to digital music sales
direct from the artist to the
fan.

The latest development in
that direction comes from
MySpace. a social network—
ing site that has brought new
audiences to many bands.
Now MySpacc is adding a
music-store feature that will
allow artists. labels and the
site itself to cash in on the
popularity of those songs.

The new feature. expected
to be announced Tuesday.
will allow musicians~
whether they are backed by a
record label or not ~ to sell
songs directly from their My-
Space proﬁle pages.

Assuming that the songs
for sale do not violate a copy—
right. thc artist or label can
set a price and allow Web
users to buy songs the way
they might with services such
as iTuncs and Yahoo Music.

The service is in the trial
stage and will be available
broadly by the end of the
year.

It is a first step into e-
commerce for Los Angelcs—
based MySpacc. which
makes money through adver-
tisements on the site. My-
Space has revolutionized
how its mostly young uscrs
communicate and share mu-
sic. and the company said it
could venture into other
fomis of online ticketing and
commerce.

“We think it’s going to
make a reasonable amount of
money. but most of the mon-
ey will go to the artists." said
Amit Kapur. director of busi—
ness development for My-
Spacc. This product is direct-
ed primarily to appeal to un—
signed artists. but similar
deals could cater to other
artists‘ needs in the future. he
said.

Snocap Inc.. a San Fran-
cisco-based company that
manages a registry of copy-
righted music. will operate
the software behind the on-
linc music service. Snocap
was co—founded by Shawn
Fanning. known best for
launching the Napster file-
sharing program in I999.
sparking years of controversy
over the fair use of copy—
righted music.

The songs. which initially
will be bought through credit

MySpace:
Meet the band,
buy the song

card or PayPal accounts, will
be in the MP3 format. That is
compatible with most digital
music players. including the
popular Apple iPod.

MySpace. which started
in 2004 and was purchased
last year by Rupert Mur-
doch's Fox Interactive Mc-
dia. now hosts more than 106
million profiles. including
roughly 3 million musical
acts that post tracks online.
By allowing users to self-
publish, MySpace has be-
come a launching pad for
small local acts. as well as a
place for national movies and
artists to promote themselves.
The new online music store
is likely to appeal most to un—
signed artists. who have dis—
covered their own following
on the lntemet. But it proba-
bly will not draw big artists.
because the company is not
attaching files that restrict
how the downloaded songs
are used. said David Card.
music and social media ana-
lyst with Jupiter Research.

And while it may bring in
some money for unsigned
artists. Fox Interactive parent
News Corp.‘s recent $900
million deal with Google to
provide search on sites such
as MySpace will probably
prove to be more significant
than the music store. Card
said.

The number of dancers a
team may enter in the marathon
dance depends on the amount of

money a team makes.

Teams also have the oppor-
tunity to adopt a family that is
affected by cancer and the fami-
lies may come to events and
hang out with the teams.

Last year 16 families were
adopted and organizers are hop-
ing to have more adopted by
teams this year. Adopting a fam-
ily allows the team members to
connect on a personal level with
the cause and the people they
are striving to help.

“To go with your adopted
child or family and see them do—

Bush warns of continued terror threat

By Michael A. Fletcher

THE WASHINGTON POST

WASHINGTON Presi-
dent Bush issued a stern warn-
ing Tuesday about what he
called the continuing terrorist
threat confronting the nation. us-
ing the haunting words of Islam-
ic extremists to support his as—
sertion that they remain deter-
mined to attack the United
States.

Abandoning his practice of
only rarely mentioning aI-Qaida
leader ()sama bin Laden. Bush
repeatedly quoted him and pur»
ported terrorist letters. record—
ings and documents to make his
case that terrorists have broad
totalitarian ambitions and share
his view that the war in Iraq is a
key theater in a wider war on
terror.

"Iraq is not a distraction in
their war against America" but
the “central battlefield where
this war will be decided." Bush
said in an address before the
Military Officers Association of
America.

Citing the internal commu—
nications of terrorists w as a dra»
matic new tactic to advance fa-
miliar arguments from Bush in
defense of his strategy. The re-
marks came less than a week be—
fore the nation observes the fifth
anniversary of Sept. II. 2001.
terrorist attacks. and two months
before mid-term elections in
which the adiiiinistration‘s na»
tional strategy and competence
promise to be pivotal questions
~—— a debate underscored by
sharp criticism of Bush Tuesday
by Democratic congressional
leaders.

The president‘s remarks
came just hours after the White
House released its updated plan
for combating terrorism. The
document describes many suc-
ccsscs in the war on terrorism.
but warns that the nation faces
an evolving threat from small
terror networks and aI~Qaida.
which is as much air ideology as

an actual terrorist network. The
document calls the administra-
tion‘s policy of spreading free-
dom and democracy as the best
means of countering that threat
over the long haul.

"America is safer. but we
are not yet safe." the document
concludes.

Several top Democrats. act-
ing in concert with the centrist
group Third Way. cited their
own document
charging that
national security has
diminished broadly
under Bush. for rea-
sons stretching froin
instability in Iraq to
burgeoning nuclear
programs in Iran and
North Korea.

"The facts do not
lie." said Senate Mi~
nority‘ Leader Harry
Reid. D—Nev. “Under
the Bush administra—
tion and I25

Republican Con
gress. America is less
safe. facing greater
threats. and unpre-
paer for the danger-
ous world in which
we live.

In his speech. Bush said ter—
rorist Ieaders‘ own statements
have made plain their goals.
which he called the present—day

equivalent of the "evil" aims of
and Adolf

Vladimir Lenin
Hitler.
“Bin Laden and his terrorist
allies have made their intentions
as clear as Lenin and Hitler be—
fore them. The question is: Will
we listen'.‘ Will we pay attention
to what these evil men say?"
Bush said. We‘re taking the
words of the enemy seriously."
Meanwhile. the bipartisan
(‘enter for Strategic and Interna-
tional Studies issued a report
saying that while the Bush ad-
ministration has deprived al-
Qaida of sanctuary in
Afghanistan and prevented any
other terrorist attacks on [IS in

us. —-~—~
"Bin Laden and
his terrorist allies
have made their
intentions as
clear as Lenin w
and Hitler before
him. The ques-
tion is: Will we
listen?"

GEORGE W. BUSH

the past five years. it has failed
to track down bin Laden and
failed to create "enduring securi-
ty‘ in Afghanistan." Moreover.
the report said. the administra-
tion‘s attempts at public diplo—
macy is "undermined by per-
ceived US. unilateralism."

“What is missing from the
public discussion of all of this is
some explanation of the phe-
nomenon of radicali/ed Islam."
said Daniel Ben-
jamin. a senior fel—
low at (‘SIS and
former (‘Iinton ad
ministration official.
"Why are there so
many people out
there who want to
kill Americans and
many Western-
ers'.’ Why is this
such a durable plie—
nomenon?”

As Bush spoke
in Washington. Pak—
istan signed a peace
accord with pro—Tal-
iban forces in the
tribal areas border—
ing Afghanistan.
. agreeing to with—

draw its troops from
the region in return for the tight—
crs' pledge to stop attacks iiisiclc
Pakistan. The pact prompted
concern that it could allow Is,
lamic extremist groups might
operate more freely in the area.

The president‘s speech was
the latest in a series of addresses
aitiicd at buttressing flagging
public support for the war as the
anniversary of the Sept. l l tcre
rorist attacks draws near.
Wednesday. Btish is expected to
give another address at the
White House. in which he will
discuss his administration‘s lat-
est proposal foi trying suspectcd
members of al~Qaida. who are
being held at a military prison at
Guantanamo Bay. Cuba. In
June. the Supreme Court struck
down the military commissions
Bush established to try suspect-
ed members of the terrorist

group. On Thursday. he is
scheduled to again address the
subject of terrorism during a vis—
it to Atlanta.

In his speech at Washing
ton‘s Capital Hilton Hotel. Bush
said the threat posed by al—Qaicla
and other Sunni Muslim “exr
tremists" is no different than that
posed by Shiite Muslim “ex~
tremists." who he said include
the leaders of Iran and the mili-
tant group Hezbollah, He quoted
Iranian President Mahmoud .»\h~
madinejad as haying said that if
the US. wants to have good rc~
lations with Iran it must "bow
down before the greatness ol the
Iranian nation and surrender. If
you don't accept to do this. the
Iranian nation will force you to
surrender and bow down.”

“America will not bow
down to ty rants." Iitisli added to
loud applause from the s aiidi-

In their rcbiittals. some I)c7
mocrats renew ccl calls that I)c—

House secretary Tony
Snow said Bush ﬂatly i‘cicctcd
those calls. Sonic Democrats
said the reason al-Qaida remains
so dangerous is because the

“It President Bush had un-

warm, 9! ,,.-,. . .

Throughout the .yerriester, the Features
Page will spotlight various (UNI/HM leaders.
This week we are featuring Zulema llerriun»
(/(’Z'. the president of t 'I\"\ chapter 0/ LIST).
I/It’ [alt/no Arrierit'uri Student ()rjeuiii':iiti'(iii.

Hernandez u market/tie and men hurt»

living in Lexington/hr ten \mry.

Q. What exactly is LASO?

()ur mission is to educate UK stu—
dents and faculty about Latino culture and
bring Latino students together to be pan of
an organization that they can learn some-
thing from. We want to giye a voice to l.ati~
no students on campus.

Q. What made you want to become in-
vo ved. both as a leader and with LASU?

‘ I know in high school. there were no
organizations like this. where Latinos could
come and feel welcome. When I came to
(K. I was looking for something like this.

For More Information:
To join the LASO listserv
y :e-mail Iattno-I@lsv.uky.edu
Fair more information on LASO:
eémsil f!orzhem@yahoo.com

I would have tried to start something like it
if it wasn't already here. When l was a
freshman. I went to everything that LASO
offered and got really involved.

q. How has being, involved with LASO
he ped you become a leader?

This experience has helped me so
much in leadership. I think that if there
aren't officers planning something. nothing
gets done. As a leader. this is a great oppor—
tunity both for me and the organi/ation to
reach out to and get in contact with students.

Q. What does LASO do for diversity on
campus?

There are other Latino American
groups on cainptis. but we try to give ment—
hcrs a group of people that they can relate
to. When you're a part of something where a
lot of other people share your culture and
traditions. you become a lot more comfort
able.

I know that as a freshman. l w asn‘t real-
ly comfortable at I’K. but LASU gaye me
something to relate to and made me want to
stick around If members become committed
to art organi/ation. they don‘t want to leaye.
They know they have a group of people that
appreciates who they are.

..What does LASO. as an organiza-
tion. do for Us”?

Everyone can learn a lot from LASO.
not just Latinos. You can learn so much
about other cultures I think that being a part
of LASO will help people out when they’re

TRICIA SPAULDING [ STAFF
Zulema Hernandez, a native of Mexrco, is presrdeiit of LASO, a student group that promotes Latino American culture and traditions. Hernandez has
been involved with the organization for three years

in the real world.

You never know what‘s out there. and
LASO opens your eyes to a different culv
ture. We are just trying to educate students
about Hispanic culture. We're not trying to
target Latinos; we're targeting everyone at
UK to join.

0 What makes you want to be a
leader?

Rather than being someone that people
can look tip to. I want to make a difference.
I want to help people on campus who don‘t
have a voice. I want to make LASO better
than it already is. not just for Latino stu-
dents. but for everyone at UK.

Q. What events does LASO have
planned for the year?

()ur first meeting is Thursday. Sept. 7
in room 33” of the Student Center at 5 pm.
We hay e bi-weekly meetings that are open
for everyone to join. We‘ll be celebrating
Hispanic Heritage Month. which runs from
Sept, l5 through Oct. 15. Wllh variotis
events. The first is a showcase of Mexican
food with appetizers. which is Sept. 15
from ll ant. to l pm. in the Martin Luther
King. .lr.. (‘ultural Center. Also. there are
weekly salsa classes in the MLK Cultural
Center on l’ridays from 3 pm. to 5 pm.

LASt) isn't just for Latino American
students; as for anyone who is interested in
learning more about the Latin American
culture. Come to the meetings. meet some
members. and get involved.
