All in good fun God, he lacks one thing Not to be taken literally, this is just a short list I came across which points out a humorus way to look at things. He had only one major publication. It was in Hebrew. It had no references. It wasn't published in a refereed journal. Some even doubt he wrote it by himself. It might be true that he created the world, but what has he done since then? His cooperative efforts have been quite limited. The scientific community has had a hard time replicating his results. He never applied to the ethics board for permission to use human subjects. When one experiment went awry he tried to cover it by drowning his subjects. When subjects didn't behave as predicted. he deleted them from the sample. He rarely came to class, just told students to read the book. Some say he had his son teach the class. He expelled his first two students for learning. Although there were only 10 requirements. most of his students failed his tests. His office hours were infrequent and usually held on a mountain top. No record of working well with colleagues. - Source: lhttp://www.neystadt .org/john/humor/ Why-God-never- received-a-PhD.htm - ROI NORTON Imm-i Tomorrow's weather 4.3 2.?

A total of $31,629,350 was accepted and allocated by the board. Over 20 newly an nounced gifts and pledges to the Universi- ty were approved by the board. totaling $9,570,250. The board also allocated gifts and pledges previously accepted for a total of $22.059.000. Gifts and pledges will be used to en- dow 22 new academic chairs and 30 new professorships, and will also provide fund- ing for additional academic programs. With the recent endowments, the total number of academic chairs has doubled since last June. to 54. The number of pro- fessorships increased from 52 to 98. Joseph Burch, vice president for Uni- versity Relations. said the importance of the new chairs and professorships will re- flect on the University‘s success in entic- ing and keeping distinguished faculty. while providing for greater education. Kentucky General Assembly. allocates up to $66.7 million to UK in matching funds through gifis and pledges.

This is the first time in our history we have reached SIT? high levels of these gifts," Burch sa1 . UK President Charles Wethington said after the meeting that the goal is to com- plete the challenge by the end of the calen~ dar year. Wethington said he hopes to re- port to Gov.

I KERNEL 51m Finding right chord Rabchevsky can help fulfill dream of helping those with spinal injuries through grant approved by UK Board of Trustees By Karla Dooley ASSISTANT NEWS EDITOR Alexander Rabchevsky was a junior in college when his motorcycle crashed. Fifteen hours later. he said he was still moving his legs. But later, Rabchevsky said the area around his spinal cord injury swelled. leaving him in a wheelchair. para- lyzed from the chest down. Rabchevsky. who was already a pre- med student. said he immediately began looking for opportunities to enter the field of spinal cord injury research. That was in 1985. Now Rabchevsky is a 32- -year- -old post doctoral fellow at UK studying the effects of a drug he hopes will eventually minimize the effects of spinal cord injury for others. Thanks to a recent grant from the state' 5 Spinal Cord and Head Injury Trust Rabchevsky' 3 work might be secure for the future. The UK Board of Trustees yesterday ac- cepted the $2. 5 million gift. which will be used to create a proposed Spinal Cord and Brain Injury Research Center. “The (Spinal Cord and Head Injury Trust advisory) board really wants to get a INDEPENDENT SlflCEl971 head start in bringing together a strong ——’—_"_ oup of people“ to study these in'uries, News tips? gr J Call: 257-1915 or write: kemelOpopukyedu -- I " > . ’ - g ' _ said Phyllis Wise, chair of the physiology department and serves on the trust's advi- sory board. “Ultimately. we‘ll find a way to treat the people that suffer from this faster." she said. The funds for the proposed UK center will be distributed over a period of five years and used to establish “a center with- out walls." which will include allocations for endowed chairs for: a clinical director. two faculty members conducting spinal cord and brain injury research, and post- doctoral and graduate student fellowships. said James Geddes. associate professor of anatomy and neurobiology and interim di- rector of the proposed center. The University of Louisville will re- ceive a similar grant for spinal cord and head injury studies although it does not plan to use the money in the same way. Wise said. The trust. which was established four years ago. has accrued the funds from a $12. 50 surcharge added to all Kentucky speeding tickets. The Kentucky legislature was the first to adopt this kind of plan and a number of others have followed suit Geddes said. “With Christopher Reeves spinal cord injury has received a lot more attention re- cently," Geddes said. UK will apply for $2 million in match- ing funds from the Research Challenge Trust to match the endowed chairs and post- doctoral and graduate student fellow- ship endowments bringing the proposed center' 5 assets to $4. 5 million. Geddes said that research on treatment fot spinal cord and head injuries falls into two categories. finding ways to limit the damage that occurs and promote regrowth of neurons after an injury. “By trying to minimize secondary events. (there is the) possibility to minimize the damage that occurs and preserve the re- maining function.“ he said. Which is exactly what Rabchevsky‘s work involves. He's trying to find out how a drug treat- ment called Basic Fibroblast Growth Fac tor. a protein that occurs naturally in the human body helps improve the motor func- tion in rats with spinal cord damage. Rabchevsky said bruising" often hap- pens after the injury causing the damaged area to grow beyond the actual site of im- pact. The rats that receive a dosage of BFGF tend to walk better than those without it. he said. Rabchevsky said he hopes BFGF can be combined with another drug treatment to help keep “bruising‘ from occurring and potentially help spinal cord cells regener ate. “A human being may be more plastic (or resilient) than we thought." he said. Geddes said the clinical director will ideally establish a clinic where patients can participate in clinical trials for new treatments like the one Rabchevsky is working on now. What we‘re hoping is that we can re- lieve the paralysis and allow them to func- tion again. Wise said. JJEAItL Disease claims life of student After collapsing at W]. Young Library. Sisi Teng dies at UK Hospital By Richard Cook ASSISTANT NEWS EDITOR Shanghai native Sisi Teng. a 27~year-old graduate finance stu- dent at UK. died Feb. 9 after col- lapsing in the William T. Young Library. He was taken to the UK Hos- pital where he was pronounced dead. The reported cause of death was coronary disease. according to Dean of Students David Stock- ham‘s office. Teng's family flew in from Shanghai for a memorial service held at Chinese Christian Church last Saturday. A dona- tion box was passed around at the service to help the family with the cost of transporting his body back to Shanghai. “His father bowed very low.“ said Holly Bundrant. a nutrition 1 science doctoral candidate. “It was a sign of great respect and gratitude." Teng was born in Shanghai. where he lived until coming to the United States in 1991. He attended St. Mary‘s Preparatory High School in Michigan. While there. he played soccer and received sec— ondary honors for scholastic achievement. Due to the costs of transporting the body. SGA Presi- dent Nate Brown said the family might cremate Teng and carry the ashes back with them. “I understand it costs about 310.000 to ship the body." said Brown. “If someone could take on a fundraising campaign for Teng's family. SGA would help out with publicity.“ Brown attended the memori- al service and said although he did not know Teng pers‘onally, it was obvious from the mass of people in attendance that Teng was well loved. “I could see he had made an impact on people's lives." Brown said. “It made me value my inter- national friends." Bundrant said Teng always put his friends” needs above his own needs. She called him "highe 1y motivated and independent.“ Brown said the SGA spon- sors a memorial walk for stu dents who have died throughout the past year. Students have ex- } pressed various opinions about ‘ permanent memorials for stu- dents who die. he said. One sug- gestion is a memorial room at the W.T. Young Library. Information about deceased students can be obtained from the Dean of Students Office. The Student Newspaper at the University of Kentucky. Lexington . - a “'Wfi‘i‘llsusn .1.” mflfiwc .

Cats look to go deep UK Head Coach Tubby Smith calls for more long range bombing from his shooters By Jen Smith SENIOR STAFF WRITER They‘re not your father’s Wildcats. OK. They‘re not the team you knew two or three years ago. They’re not the team that runs and guns. They're not the team that shoots the threes. But they might be. After four straight South- eastern Conference road losses, UK is looking for a new outlet — a way outlet. Way out meaning from downtown. UK has not been the best three-point shooting team this year. It is last in the SEC in three-point percentage at 31.2 percent. It is eighth in the league in three-point field goals made with 5.72 a game. In games it has won, UK shot 32 percent from beyond the arc. In losses, it shot a mere 16.5 per- cent. So when the Cats shoot the ball well from downtown, they win. With a few exceptions, when they miss, they lose. 80 what‘s a Cat to do? “We're just gonna stop shooting the threes,“ UK Coach Tubby Smith quipped. “Nah. We’re probably gonna have to take more threes. We gotta shoot it in order to make it. We have some good three-point shooters overall, we shoot it well in practice and individual workouts.“ What seems strange then, is changing the system this late in the season. UK has been a force inside with big men Ja- maal Magloire, Michael Bradley and even Jules Cama- ra. The team is No. 1 in the SEC in field goal percentage and second in rebounding. So it seems logical that UK would stick with what has been effec- tive in the past. But senior tri-captain Scott Padgett has a different take. He said if the team could just have a couple more threes fall in conjunction with effec- tive inside play, they would be unstoppable. He also added that the team has not been working on threes specifically in prac- tice. “We have to shoot some threes on our own, I guess" he said, adding that UK just hasn’t looked the same since it stopped becoming a power- house from behind the arc. He cited the Tennessee game, when the team attempted 11 threes and made only two. Three of those attempts came in the last 30 seconds of the game. “That's not Kentucky bas— ketball," Padgett said. “(Smith’s idea to shoot more) sort of sounds strange, but you gotta take ’em to make ‘em." Smith nominated Padgett. Heshimu Evans, Wayne Turn- er, Saul Smith and Desmond Allison for the three-point hon- ors in the postseason, starting in Atlanta on Friday night. Getting over the hump After losses, coaches and players always talk about a lit tle tweaking and minor changes to motivate them for the next game. After losing the Eastern Division title to Ten- nessee, some major changes were instituted. Sunday afternoon. the vet- eran players took it upon them- selves to call a player-only team meeting. “Everybody feels bad about the loss," senior Turner said. “We talked about it as a team. We‘re 0-0 from here on out. We wanted to make sure everyone knew that. “We were making sure the young guys realize that the reg- ular season is over with. It‘s time to put it into overdrive in Atlanta.” It sunk in for Magloire, a junior, who wasn‘t quick to make one of his predictions for a UK win this year, but who ex- pressed his optimism in gener- al. “I’ve always said we‘re the hardest working team in the country," Magloire said. “Now we're gonna show it. We know now that this can't be a one- man or two-man show, it‘s gonna take the team.“ Padgett remained opti- mistic, as well. He said the loss didn’t look nearly as bad on tape. “1 think we were real down on ourselves (after Ten- nessee)," he said. “I mean the ms“: :‘ iioaii: mum | rcrtncrsmr Center Mike Bradley looked for room to shoot during Sunday's loss at Tennessee.

If we do little things. we'll be fine." One of those little things being done is the videotaping of UK practices until the tourna- ment. “Basically the team thought we had to get better at some things," Smith said. “Sometimes you don’t really see it. We can keep stats in practice, but now they can see it."
