A biker’s best friend
Wheels are turning at UKbetween Bike Week, a bicyclepath stirring up controversy,and the university winning anaward for being bicyclefriendly.
UK was one of nine uni-versities to be recognized as aBicycle Friendly Universityby the League of AmericanBicyclists in their 2012awards.
The school received abronze designation, making itthe first university in the stateto receive the award, and oneof only 44 colleges that havebeen awarded nationwidesince 2011.
The League of AmericanBicyclists is a non-profit or-ganization founded in 1880that awards communities,universities and businessesthat support bicycling, ac-
cording to the league’s web-site.
The city of Lexingtonwas awarded a bronze desig-nation from the League ofAmerican Bicyclists in Octo-ber 2007.
Universities and collegesare judged based on severalcategories, including educa-tion, encouragement, enforce-ment, evaluation, planningand engineering.
The addition of bikelanes, fix-it stations, air sta-tions and bike racks on cam-pus, and offerings of educa-tion programs for bicyclists,contributed to UK’s award.
UK started the BicycleAdvisory Committee in 2011with a commitment of bring-ing in $100,000 per year forthree years to install new fa-cilities and encourage cyclingon campus, said StuartKearns, associate director ofParking and Transportation
Services and chair of the Bi-cycle Advisory Committee.
“We’ve put in bike laneson a number of campus roadsand also roads going intocampus,” Kearns said.
UK is looking to increasebicycle parking by about 10percent per year and installsome covered bicycle racks,especially in residential areas,Kearns added.
As part of continuing ef-forts to improve the bicyclecommute for students, em-ployees and faculty, the UKBicycle Advisory Committeeis currently designing a bicy-cle trail that would connectthe Bellefont Bike Route to
the University Drive corridor,said Shane Tedder, sustain-ability coordinator and mem-ber of the Bicycle AdvisoryCommittee.
The current plan is tomake a 12-foot-wide paththrough the western edge ofThe Arboretum's WalnutWoods that would connectUniversity Court to Wild-wood Avenue. Improvedcrossings and signs wouldthen connect Wildwood Av-enue to Tahoma, Valley andGlendover roads.

Cancer researchprojects unvieled
UK students, facultyand post-doctorals show-cased more than 100 dif-ferent cancer researchprojects at the fourth an-nual Markey Cancer Cen-ter Research Day on Mon-day.
Poster presentationscircled the lobbies of theSingletary Center withvarious project topics, in-cluding human DNA mis-match repair and electron-ic cigarette analysis.
“We had 142 posters,which is a record numberof posters that we’vehad,” said Terry Keys,Markey continuing med-ical education coordina-tor. “That’s 10 more thanlast year.”
Displaying their proj-ect on oncology researchand caregivers were twoundergraduate communi-cation students, MorgynRobinson and RachelSparks.
“My part focused onthe spirituality of care-givers,” Sparks said. “Itwas interesting seeing howcancer caregivers wouldturn to church families forsupport and prayers, andhow much the churcheswould help them andcome together as a com-munity.”
Anyone was welcomeand could benefit from theevent.

LOS ANGELES — Kristen Stewart, whocelebrated her 23rd birthday this week, wasspotted reveling with on-again-off-againboyfriend Robert Pattinson.
The “Twilight” twosome were seen Tues-day having dinner for Stewart’s big day atMalo, a Mexican restaurant in Los Angeles,with about 40 friends, including “SpringBreakers” star Ashley Benson, X17 reported.After dinner, the couple stopped by No Vacan-cy at Hotel Jupiter, where Hanson was havingits album release party, E! News said.
“They weren’t overly affectionate or any-thing, but at points they were standing togeth-er as they talked to friends,” a source told E!News. Perez Hilton, however, reported that thecouple are “%100 BACK ON.”
That would seem like an ordinary birth-day, but one British tabloid decided to givereaders something more to sink their teethinto, reporting Thursday that she received alavish birthday gift from RPattz: a pen.
But not just any pen. It’s supposedly a lim-ited-edition fountain pen with a barrel identi-cal to the dashboard in the earliest Bentley au-tomobile and one of only 40 in the world, ac-cording to the U.K.’s Daily Star. Its estimatedprice was 30,000 British pounds, which con-verts to roughly $46,000.
“Rob decided to go big for her birthdaythis year,” a source said.

The event ends with theFight Back Ceremony, anenergetic finale where teamstake one more lap and writeways they vow to fight backagainst cancer.
“It’s supposed to mimichow a cancer patient’s daywould go,” Harris said. “Asthe sun goes down, it getscolder and fighting getsharder. The sun comes backup and there’s hope in fight-ing back.”
But the night will befilled with more than just
the relay.The theme this year is
Disney, so team memberswho are not walking can en-joy various Disney-themedgames, such as Disney triv-ia, a Prince Charming con-test and more.

“Connecting college stu-dents with the most to give tokids who need it most” is themission statement of CollegeMentors For Kids.
College Mentors For Kidsis a nonprofit that works toprovide a college mentor whopromotes higher education forchildren who are living at thepoverty level or are potentialfirst-generation students.
The organization began in1996 at Indiana Universityand Butler University.
Today, there are 24 chap-ters of CMFK at universities
and colleges throughout Illi-nois, Indiana, Kentucky andOhio, according to the orga-nization’s website. There areroughly 1,700 college stu-dents that mentor more than1,500 children throughCMFK.
“College Mentors forKids is an amazing programthat truly changes the lives ofeveryone involved,” saidRachel Allgeier, a mentor forUK’s chapter.
This is the first year UKhas a chapter in the program.There are 24 fourth- andfifth-graders from HarrisonElementary who come tocampus each week to engage
in activities geared towardhigher education, communityservice, culture and diversity,according to Emily Pena,UK’s chapter president.
By bringing the childrento campus, CMFK hopes todevelop a mindset for thechildren that college is a real-istic opportunity for them andto help them reach their fullpotential.
The first year for UK’schapter is coming to a close,but the group is looking toexpand.
Next year they will have80 pairs of mentors and “littlebuddies,” according to Pena.All of the children will be
Harrison Elementary third-,fourth- and fifth-graders.
Pena is certain that theycan manage the increase, dueto the tremendous responsethe program has had.
“We have learned a lotover the course of the year tocontinue to help us grow andserve more children in theLexington area,” she said.
Allgeier also looks for-ward to the future of the pro-gram.
“I hope that our programcontinues to grow and impactas many students as possible.”
CMFK has conductedstudies that show 77 percentof kids say they now try hard-er in school, 84 percent havelearned about different jobs,87 percent have learned about
finances, money and savings,and 93 percent want to go tocollege.

to see smoke rising and peoplerunning,” Hancock said. “Afew seconds later I heardsirens, as well. I wasn't surewhat had happened so I justturned on the local news andsoon found out.”
Hancock said that a familyfriend who traveled to Bostonto watch him race was stand-ing at the finish line.
“He said they physicallyshook him, and chaos ensued,”Hancock said. “He and othersknocked over the barriers andran into the street away fromthe blasts. He didn't personallysee injuries, but he felt like atthe time it was too loud anddestructive to be an accidentalexplosion.”
Andrea Malji, a PhD can-didate who teaches a course ti-tled “Terrorism and PoliticalViolence” at UK, agrees thatthe event was likely a terroristattack.
According to Malji, thereare several factors to look forin determining whether an at-tack is terroristic, including apolitical motive, civilian tar-gets, influence of a broad audi-ence and premeditation. All ofthese factors were present,Malji said.
The simultaneous mannerin which the bombs were deto-nated is characteristic of Al-Qaeda attacks, according toMalji. However, other factorsled her to speculate about thepossibility of another suspectgroup.
Malji found it ironic thatApril 15 is Patriot’s Day, andalso the deadline to file taxeswith the IRS. Boston is alsothe location of the historicalBoston Tea Party, an event thatprotested the unfair taxation ofAmerican citizens.
“All three of these factorsmade me wonder if it could bea far Right-Wing group,”Malji said.
In an address from theWhite House, PresidentBarack Obama said, “We willfind out who did this and wewill hold them accountable."
As of around 7:30 p.m. onMonday, Hancock said thatabout a square mile around thescene was roped off.
Davis urged Boston citi-zens to return to their homesand hotels until further notice.
“I feel like Boston hashandled everything appropri-ately post-incident,” Hancocksaid. “All bags that were left atthe scene were checked by thelocal authorities. There are po-lice officers and SWAT teammembers on every corner right
now.” Malji said that increased
security is to be expected as aresult of the event.
“Whenever these attackshappen … where there arelarge congregations, you’regoing to see heightened securi-ty,” she said.
Some students have ex-pressed concern over the pos-sibility of a similar event oc-curring during the KentuckyDerby Festival events takingplace early next month.
“I think it's natural to haveworrisome thoughts about anykind of big gatherings so closeto this happening,” Hancocksaid. “I hate that these kinds ofevents are almost becomingregular, and I wouldn't blame aperson for not wanting to at-tend Derby because of this.”
Kim Schroer, a Kentucky-native who attends BostonCollege, shared Hancock’sfeelings about the unfortunate-ness of the event.
“This is a holiday for us.To have complete excitementand happiness switch to terrorand shock is just awful. It'sone of the worst feelings in theworld,” she said. “The onlything we could think about iswhether the close friends wehad just cheered on as theypassed us at mile 21 wereokay.”

UK baseball seeks to curbits recent skid whenLouisville comes to Cliff Ha-gan Stadium on Tuesday at6:30 p.m.
Freshman right-handedpitcher Kyle Cody (3-1, 4.60ERA) will start against No.8Louisville (28-7) for the No.17 Cats (24-11, 7-8 SEC),who lost five out of sevengames after defeating theCardinals 5-4 in 10 inningstwo weeks ago in Louisville.
UK responded to a three-game sweep at LSU twoweekends ago with winsagainst Austin Peay last Tues-day and Friday night againstTennessee in a comeback 5-4victory.
But the Cats fell behindagain on Saturday and Sun-day, falling just short in a ral-
ly Saturday in a 10-9 Volun-teers win and garnering littleoffense in the series-clinching5-0 win by the visitors.
At a press conferenceMonday, UK head coach GaryHenderson admits his club isin the middle of a slump.
“When you go throughthat rough patch, the thingsthat you aren’t doing arethings you were doing. Theabsolute basics; two-strikeapproach at the plate, all of asudden you’re taking morecalled thirds because you’reoverthinking a little bit whenyou weren’t doing that early,”Henderson said.
“But I think the pressurecomes not doing the thingsyou have been doing. We’vegot a good club. But wehaven’t played well for twoweeks now. And that’s thetruth.“
The upcoming schedule
does the Cats no favors, be-ginning with Tuesday’s gameagainst the Cardinals. For thesecond time in three weeks,UK will play Louisville thentravel to a nationally-rankedconference opponent for athree-game series (at No. 14South Carolina this week-end).
First, the Cats will facethe Cardinals, who sweptElon in a three-game serieslast weekend. Junior infielderTy Young leads Louisville inbatting average (.400), hits(50), home runs (3) and runsbatted in (39). Young also has18 stolen bases.
Sophomore infielder Sut-ton Whiting is hitting .345with 19 runs batted in. Junioroutfielder Cole Sturgeon isalso hitting .345 with 23 runsbatted in.
Junior outfielder and teamcaptain Adam Engel has 30
stolen bases, leading the Car-dinals.
UK’s Cody startedagainst Louisville on April 2,allowing three runs (twoearned) on four hits through-out 6.1 innings. Cody alsoworked into the sixth inning
last Tuesday against AustinPeay, collecting his third winof the year.
Sophomore first basemanA.J. Reed hit his ninth homerun of the season Saturday, agrand slam in the ninth in-ning. Reed leads the Cats in
home runs, hits (42) and runsbatted in (37).
Tuesday’s game will betelevised on FOX SportsSouth at 6:30 p.m. Head foot-ball coach Mark Stoops willthrow out the ceremonial firstpitch.

This is second in a series about the life ofa UK student-athlete.
Being a student-athletecan be very strenuous onboth your mind and yourbody and it is very timeconsuming.
Most of an athlete’s dayis already planned out forthem and they don’t havevery much time to them-selves.
When I asked differentathletes about their sched-ules, some of the respons-es were gruesome.
UK Hoops sophomoreJelleah Sydney gave a full description of her
day. “A basic day for me is very long. Mylongest days are when we have weights inthe morning. I go to weight lifting at 7 a.m.-8 a.m. then I can shower and maybe get asnack before I head to my tutor at 9 a.m.That tutor ends at 9:50 a.m. then I go class10:00 a.m.-11:30 a.m., class 12 p.m.-12:50p.m. and class 1 p.m.-1:50 p.m.
“Then after that class I head over to thegym to get ready for practice at 3 p.m. I’musually able to eat the sandwich that I packwhile I’m getting ready at this time. Then Ihave practice from about 3 p.m.-5:30 p.m.Then we have mandatory study hall from 7p.m.-9 p.m.”
Many of their decisions are made forthem. There are so many rules that you haveto follow as a UK student athlete.
UK’s name carries a lot of pride behindit. As an athlete attending the university, youare an extension of the leaders of the school.You are a direct outlet for people to see whatUK as a whole is really about.
So, in order to make sure that the univer-sity is being correctly represented, there is acertain way student-athletes have to carrythemselves. Whether is it in public or in theclassroom or through social media, there arethings a UK student-athlete can and cannotdo.
Student-athletes are never just free to ex-press themselves. There is a very fine linedrawn and they are not allowed to cross it.
“We always have to watch what we puton Twitter or Instagram because there is al-ways someone checking up on you,” said
Farrington Huguenin, UK sophomore foot-ball player. “It’s not like regular college kidsyou can put whatever they want and saywhatever they want. Our coaches expect usto be adults and to be responsible so youcan’t just go on the Internet cursing or ex-pressing your feelings about certain issuesthat are going on.”
Huguenin also explained that some of therestrictions are for the best because they willhave you portrayed in a light that you wantto be in.
Although he may think it is for the best,some student-athletes don’t like not havingthat same amount of freedom that most col-lege students have.

Hopes were high for UKClub dodgeball last week asthe National CollegiateDodgeball Association cham-pionship tournament ap-proached, with the No. 2 Catsplaying host. After reachingthe Final Four on Sunday, theCats were disappointed tomeet their end at the hands ofthe eventual champions,Grand Valley State.
UK senior captain ZacBrown was still pleased with
his team, despite the defeat."I am extremely proud of
how my team composedthemselves this year. We hada phenomenal team and agreat group of guys," Brownsaid.
After beating No. 22 PennState, 9-0, on Friday night,the Cats advanced to beat No.5 Michigan State, 4-2, andNo. 14 Bowling Green State,4-0, to wrap up the groupstage, determining who theCats would play come Sun-day.
On Friday and Saturday,
many UK fans showed up towitness the action, as free T-shirts were given to the first100 fans to arrive wearingUK blue.
"I can say without adoubt that our games againstPenn State and Ohio Statewere the best crowds that wehave ever had, with nearly1,000 people in the gym dur-ing those games," Brownsaid.
UK were selected to faceNo. 15 Miami (Ohio) in theSweet Sixteen, pulling out a5-0 victory.
UK faced No. 8 OhioState in the Elite Eight, andwere surprised to be down 2-0 at halftime. However, a sec-ond-half rally saw the Cats tiethe game at 2-2 by the end ofregulation, and move on tosteal a 3-2 victory in over-time, advancing them to theFinal Four for a second con-secutive season.
As predicted by senior as-sistant captain Dakota Taylor,the Cats ran into No. 6 GrandValley State of Michigan, ateam familiar with postseasonsuccess, in the semifinal. De-spite a strong team effort, theCats fell to Grand Valley, 3-1,ending their hopes of a cham-pionship.
Grand Valley State wenton to defeat Michigan State inthe final.
Despite the disappoint-ment at the end of his finalseason with the Cats, Brownis still optimistic about thesolidarity of UK's team nextseason.
"We are graduating a fewseniors this year, but we willreturn around 13 of our rosterfrom the Nationals squad,"Brown said.
Next year's nationals areto be hosted by Ohio State.
