Citizens of Lexington walk in the Martin Luther King Jr. Freedom March in downtown Lexington on Monday.
The College of Design’s se-mester project, the “NorthernKentucky Historic Art SpacesTrail” is continuing to expand.
The semester project is overand now the work will be cou-pled with the efforts of theGaines Center for Humanities’Museums Without Walls proj-ect, but the exact nature of thework is yet to be determined,said Professor Douglas Appler,
the Helen Edwards Abell Chairin Historic Preservation and theleader of the “NorthernKenucky Historic Art SpacesTrail.”
The Museum Without Wallsproject aims to give Kentuck-ians exposure to art in publicplaces.
Through creating publicopenness to historic art, Muse-um Without Walls will build onthe efforts of the College of De-sign from last semester, andmake the unique art Kentucky
has to offer more open to thepublic. The exact process iscurrently being determined, Ap-pler said.
He said the trail connectsthe historical art spaces alongKentucky Route 8, a highwaythat stretches over 100 milesalong the Northern Kentuckyregion.
Forty-seven art spaces wereselected, comprised of historicalbuildings (those more than 50years old) being used as art gal-leries, art instructional spacesand performance art, Applersaid.
Lauren Letsinger, a seniorISC major and native of theNorthern Kentucky town of Flo-
rence, has visited some artspaces in the area.
“They are captivating,”Letsinger said. “The art sites inNorthern Kentucky seem to beone of a kind.”
Bridging the gap betweenall of the historical art spaces ina comprehensive manner willallow people to visit multiplesites along Kentucky Route 8,and inform people about thesites so they can plan their touraccordingly, Appler said.
“People will be able to plana weekend based off what theyare interested in seeing with thetrail,” Appler said.

The Adkisson family demonstrates the spirit of Martin Luther KingJr. day at the MLK Freedom March in downtown Lexington Mon-day.
In an attempt to soften the drudgery thatis the beginning of the spring semester, var-ious UK organizations are banding togetherto create a more interesting experience forstudents.
K2, or K Week 2, is a collection of so-cial and academic activities offered in Janu-ary for returning and incoming students. Itis compiled by the Office of New Studentand Parent Programs.
“We would hear from students that thereis nothing to do in January, so the semesterjust started with a thud,” said NancyStephens, assistant director of New Studentand Parent Programs. “Over the last four orso years we’ve been looking a little moreclosely at how we start the spring semester.
The K2 Kickoff, a student orientationprogram that took place last Tuesday, wasone of the only activities geared predomi-nantly toward incoming UK students, saidMichelle Ashcraft, assistant director of NewStudent and Parent Programs.
All students, regardless of class rank,are eligible to attend the remaining events.
“One of the myths that we try to dispel,is that K2 is only for new students,”Stephens said. “We want to welcome backeveryone that was here in the fall.”
Different student and school organiza-tions, such as the Christian Student Fellow-ship and the Cats Den, host these activitiesthroughout the month.
All during the first week of this semes-ter, the Cats Den conducted a “free play,”where students could use their serviceswithout charge.
“It’s to kind of give students the oppor-tunity to utilize the Cats Den, and be a littlemore excited to be back,” said StephanieMartin, assistant director for activities andmarketing.

A day fit for a King
“Monumental Moments” was more than atribute to Martin Luther King Jr.
It was a celebration. Lexington’s 40th annual celebration of
King’s birthday coincided with the centennial ofMahalia Jackson, a celebrated African-Americangospel singer, with music playing a prominenttheme throughout.
Two-hundred yards away from the Lexing-ton Center’s Heritage Hall, one could hear theharmonies of a choir and the crowd’s responseto the music.
Several actresses from the musical “Ma-halia,” which was written by a UK student in1983, returned to the stage to perform some ofher most famous numbers.
Highlights included Sandra “Cissy”Williams’ “Take My Hand, Precious Lord,” andGloria Edward Tompkins singing “He’s Got theWhole World in His Hand.”
The holiday’s message of unity and love forall was demonstrated by Tompkins’ added lyricsto indlude such entities as Catholics, atheists,racists and President Barack Obama.
A delegation of UK students who had at-tended the opening of the Martin Luther KingJr. Memorial in Washington, D.C., was recog-nized at the ceremony, including hospitalitymanagement and tourism junior Ashley Camp-bell.

WHAT IT’S ABOUT: 90 years ago Tues-day, a very special lady was born. She’sbeloved (goes without saying), but this careeris so varied and rich and ongoing that attentionmust be paid. Tonight, it will be paid. NBC isclearing the prime-time decks for a 90-minutespecial taped at Los Angeles’ Biltmore Hotel.
According to the network, “From her firstwords on radio in 1947, to her current (TVLand) series ‘Hot In Cleveland,’ viewers willbe taken on an unprecedented journey throughBetty’s storied career.” Special guests are spe-cial indeed — Mary Tyler Moore, Carl Reiner,Morgan Freeman, Tina Fey, Ray Romano,William Shatner and many more, with musicalperformances and surprises. No review copiesof either this or “Rockers” — a reality showabout seniors playing tricks on juniors — were
available.MY SAY: Actually, what more is left to
say? Betty White is a national treasure. Onthis everyone can agree. But keep an eye outfor that show that is previewed afterward. Athree-minute clip of “Betty White’s Off TheirRockers” was posted on the Web recently andhas probably gone viral by now. How to de-scribe this? Betty White meets “Punk’d”meets “Candid Camera.” “Old people are mar-ginalized,” the voice-over booms. “They’renot even in the key demo! ... Now they’refighting back.” The clip is very randy ... andvery funny. If the series, still without an air-date, becomes a hit, then Betty White will bethe one who has saved NBC. That’s right: Bet-ty.

The hectic nature ofthe spring semester; in-clement weather, shorteramount of time for plan-ning and starting in themiddle of the week hascaused the K2 program toextend its duration fromone week to one month inrecent years, Ashcraftsaid.
This gives organiza-tions more flexibility andstudents more time to be-come acclimated to com-ing back from winterbreak.

a vessel for art connoisseursto obtain information, othersare benefitting from the proj-ect in other valuable ways.
Appler said the experi-ence of working on the trailfor a semester project wasvaluable to the students inthe College of Design.
“I think many of the stu-dents had a great experi-ence,” he said. “They got todo serious archival research,
a lot of good, solid face-to-face contact with communitygroups and other people whoare involved with historicalbuildings on a daily basis."
Students from the Collegeof Design each focused on asmall number of sites, learn-ing about the buildings’ originand history, Appler said.
College of Design stu-dent Kathy Martinolich re-members a historical spaceshe researched.
“I had two sites in Lud-low and one in Fort Thomasand found out so many inter-
esting things about each ofthem,” Martinolich said."The Masonic Hall I re-searched was a pharmacy fora long time and was actuallyfeatured in the movie ‘Lostin Yonkers.’”
Now the challenge isfinding a way to make thetrail accessible to the public,Appler said.
“If it gets picked up, howit looks will have to be de-cided,” he said. “It could beon a website, a download-able map, and people will beable to find it.”

halia Jackson],” Campbellsaid. “There wasn’t a song Ididn’t like.”
On hand to welcome thecrowd was UK’s PresidentEli Capilouto, who spoke ofthe lessons of King.
Capilouto, who was bornin Montgomery, Ala., grewup during the tumultuoustimes of the civil rights erain the segregated city, andsaid his father’s office wasmere blocks away fromKing’s home when it wasbombed.
Despite the “full scaleracial war” erupting aroundthem, Capilouto said Kingprevailed.
“He conquered hate withlove for his enemies,” Capi-louto said, also speaking ofKing’s “simple truths— lovefor one another, an under-standing and acceptance for
one’s heritage.” Mayor Jim Gray spoke of
Lexington’s checkered pastin regards to race.
“There have been a lot ofpeaks, but there have been alot of valleys,” Gray said.“One of the most inspiringmoments of every year is to-day.”
The keynote address wasdelivered by Marc LamontHill, one of the leading hip-hop generation intellectualsin the country.
Campbell said Hill lefther with a sense of goals andpurpose.
“Lots of people think wehave made it, but actuallywe haven’t,” she said. “Weneed to keep striving to edu-cate ourselves, respect eachother, those of different cul-tures and minorities.”
The ceremony was pre-luded by the annual marchcommemorating King,which Campbell describedas crowded and successful,
despite the rain. “I felt like I needed to go
there,” said Campbell, whowas marching as a represen-tative of UK NAACP.“Marching is what broughtme there.”
Charles Little & Ensem-ble, which had the crowdsinging and dancing beforethe ceremony even began,started the ceremony off withthe Black National Anthem.
Written by James Wel-don Johnson, the song’sverses included the lyrics,“We have come over a waythat with tears has beenwatered.”
The march and the cere-mony, a commemoration ofwhat has been, was also aninspiring tribute to how fardown that path humanity hascome.
Mistress of CeremoniesSaida Grundy summed upthe feeling of the attendees:“Today is truly a monumen-tal moment.”

UK Hoops junior guardA’dia Mathies was namedSEC Player of the Weekaccording to a press releasefrom the UK Athletic Of-fice.
Mathies led the Cats totheir third victory over atop-10 ranked team thisseason, when she tallied 34points and nine reboundsagainst the Tennessee Vol-unteers Thursday night atMemorial Coliseum. Shealso nailed the game-win-ner with 4.2 seconds re-
maining, which took theCats to 4-0 in the SEC andended a 36-game SEC win-ning streak for the Vols.

UK men’s tennis juniorAnthony Rossi clinchedSEC Coaches’ Indoor Sin-gles Title Monday.
As with any sport, ten-nis requires some sort ofstrategy or game plan head-ing into a game. When itcomes to UK tennis, there’sone thing that head coachDennis Emery has tried to
instill in his players.“You can play with
emotion without playingemotionally,” Emery said.
Rossi stepped onto RyanHolder Court at the HilaryJ. Boone Tennis Complex inLexington on Monday tostand toe-to-toe with the na-tion’s 10th-ranked player,Sadio Doumbia of Georgia.
Almost from the start,Rossi consistently shoutedin excitement as he earned
point after point. He man-aged to keep himself calmin even the most frustratingmoments.
As the first set came toa close and the second setbegan, the Georgia Bull-dog’s frustration may havebeen the difference betweena win and a loss.
Rossi, ranked 36th inthe nation by the Intercolle-giate Tennis Association,won the match, 6-4, 6-3,
thus earning himself thetournament championship.He did so winning threebreak points throughout thematch without allowing asingle one to Doumbia. Fur-thermore, Rossi accumulat-ed six aces, including onethat clinched the first set.He committed fewer un-forced errors than Doumbia,which proved to be a bigdifference. The key error ofthe match was Doumbia’slong shot that won Rossithe championship.
“I’m really happy,”
Rossi said, “I was expectingto play a great tournament,but not to win it.”
Shots were constantlyreturned crosscourt, andboth Doumbia and Rossishowed great endurance incontinuing to answer. In theend, it was Rossi’s forehandshot that was the key to hisvictory.
Rossi’s victory in theCoaches’ Indoor marks thefirst time a UK singlescompetitor has won it since1989 when Adam Maliktook the championship.
Elsewhere in the tourna-ment, UK players EricQuigley and Tom Jombywere defeated in the quar-terfinal round. The team ofQuigley and Panav Jha ad-vanced to the semifinalround of the doubles tour-nament before droppingtheir match against Marceland Chris Thiemann of OleMiss.
Over the next coupleweeks, the seventh-rankedCats will face MichiganState, IUPUI, Indiana andEastern Kentucky.

N e a r l yevery teamabout to playUK hasshied awayfrom tryingto run withthe Cats.
N o tArkansas.
The Ra-z o r b a c k spush thepace on of-
fense and defense. Their ad-justed tempo of 72.6 posses-sions per game ranks No. 14 inthe nation. They scored 98points against MississippiState three games ago andhave broken 80 points six oth-er times.
“We’re going to attack.That’s how we’re going toplay,” Arkansas head coachMike Anderson said. “Wewon’t go away from what wedo.”
UK is glad Arkansas isn’tchanging its plan. Players whohave been forced to get accus-tomed to grind-it-out gameswill get the chance to run, run,run.
The player who will be incontrol of the pace is up for anup-tempo game.
“This is going to be excit-ing,” freshman point guard
Marquis Teague said. “Welook forward to these types ofgames, playing up and down,using our speed and athleti-cism.”
Teague will have to usemore than just his speed andathleticism to navigate the Ra-zorbacks’ high-pressure press.Arkansas hopes to force multi-ple passes before its opponentscross half court.
“They don’t let youbreathe,” said LSU head coachTrent Johnson, whose teamwas pressured into 16turnovers in a loss.
That was actually anabove-average performanceagainst the Razorbacks, whichhas forced its opponents into312 turnovers this year (18.4per game).
It will fall on Teague tomake smart decisions.
“It’s another thing for ourpoint guard to feel and workhis way through,” head coachJohn Calipari said.
Avoid turnovers, and UKgets more possessions to workwith. More possessions meanmore opportunities to makeplays. More opportunitiesmean more shots. And moreshots means, well —
“More points for some-body,” sophomore forwardTerrence Jones said (and mayI add that UK hopes that“somebody” is Doron Lamb,who has scored 14 or fewerpoints – his current seasonaverage – in seven straightgames).
It also means the floor isopened up for more rebound-ing opportunities. Calipariwants to see his team winmore 50-50 balls. If there’s agame in which that can hap-pen, it’s against Arkansas.
While UK has three play-
ers among the SEC’s top 15rebounders (Anthony Davis,Terrence Jones and MichaelKidd-Gilchrist), Arkansas hasnone. No Razorback averagesmore than 5.2 rebounds pergame, and the team is dead lastin the SEC at defensive re-bounding.
“That poses a big chal-lenge for our basketball team,”Anderson said. “That’s an areawe’re not as strong at becausewe don’t have that size.”
So UK has that going forit, as well as playing at RuppArena, where it “hasn’t lostmany games recently,” as An-derson said.
If he defines “recently” as“within the last three years,”he is absolutely correct.
Can his team end thatstretch by playing the waythey want to play — even ifthat risks playing right intoUK’s hands?
“You just have to giveyourself a chance to make ithappen,” Anderson said. “Youhave to be within striking dis-tance.”
Depending on how fastUK gets out in front, the Catscould pull away early.
And unlike most otherteams who have a speed-up-the-pace alternative plan,Arkansas wouldn’t be able tochange anything about it.

LOS ANGELES — Thereare better prophets of theAcademy Awards than theGolden Globes — last year,the voters in the HollywoodForeign Press Assn. gavetheir top drama award to“The Social Network,” noteventual best picture Oscarwinner “The King’sSpeech” — so everythingthat the HFPA does (andshould) be taken with agrain of salt.
That’s especially true inthe top categories, whereGlobes are presented in dra-ma and musical or comedycategories, the latter inexpli-cably including the not-real-ly-funny “My Week WithMarilyn.” That gives theHFPA doubly good odds ofaligning with the Oscar win-ners, yet even that wide netoften misses the mark —five years ago, “Dreamgirls”won the Golden Globe forbest comedy or musical andwasn’t even nominated forbest picture.
Because Oscar nomina-tion polls closed Friday, withnominations to be an-
nounced Jan. 24, the Globesresults cannot affect theshortlist from the Academyof Motion Picture Arts andSciences. That said, Sun-day’s 69th annual GoldenGlobes did help clarify sev-eral Oscar races, while con-fusing a number of others.
Here’s one way to readthe HFPA tea leaves:
PICTUREThe top winners at the
Golden Globes — “The De-scendants” as the best dra-ma, “The Artist” as the bestcomedy or musical — arenow very much the leadingponies in what is lookinglike a two-horse race. Whileit’s apparent that “TheHelp,” “Hugo” and “Mid-night in Paris” will be nomi-nated for best picture (undernew rules, the nominee ros-ter could be as few as fivemovies and as many as 10this year), it’s hard to imag-ine anything besides “TheDescendants” or “TheArtist” winning the most im-portant Oscar.
DIRECTORThe HFPA picked Martin
Scorsese for directing“Hugo,” marking the fourth
award the veteran filmmakerhas received from the organ-ization, but gave the bestdrama movie trophy to “TheDescendants,” directed byAlexander Payne. It’s certainScorsese will be nominated,as will Payne, Michel Haz-anavicius, who directed“The Artist,” and WoodyAllen, who directed (andwon a Golden Globe forwriting) “Midnight in Paris.”But if the directing Oscargoes to the maker of the bestpicture, Scorsese’s namemay not be called.
ACTORThe Golden Globes went
to George Clooney for leadactor from a drama for “TheDescendants,” and Jean Du-jardin for lead actor in acomedy or musical for “TheArtist.” Exactly like the bestpicture race, it’s apt to be anAcademy Award race be-tween those two actors, andnobody else.
ACTRESSMichelle Williams was-
n’t in a strong GoldenGlobe category, winning forlead actress in a comedy ormusical, a field so weakthat not one but two stars(Jodie Foster, Kate Winslet)from the immediately for-gotten “Carnage” werenominated. Meryl Streepwon the dramatic actress
trophy for “The Iron Lady,”and that seems more obvi-ous than inspired. ViolaDavis from “The Help,”who was nominated but did-n’t win against Streep, isstill running strong in theOscar predictions.
ANIMATIONFor the last four years,
the Golden Globe winner inthis category has repeated atthe Kodak Theatre — “ToyStory 3,” “Up,” “Wall-E,”“Ratatouille” — and that’snot good news for Pixar Ani-mation Studios, which madethose four winner but did notmake Sunday’s GoldenGlobe winner, “Tintin,” fromParamount. While the con-ventional wisdom still favorsParamount’s “Rango” for theOscar, the momentum isshifting toward “Tintin.”
FOREIGN LANGUAGEIran’s “A Separation” al-
ready has collected anynumber of critics prizes, andwhile the Golden Globesrules don’t mirror the acade-my’s, there’s little doubt thedrama about a troubled mar-riage is the heavy favorite tonot only be nominated forthe foreign language Oscarbut also to take the trophy.
SUPPORTING ACTOR AND SUP-PORTING ACTRESS
The Golden Globes don’t
separate these categories be-tween dramas and comediesor musicals, but no matter.Both of Sunday’s winners —Octavia Spencer in “TheHelp” and ChristopherPlummer in “Beginners” —
will be nominated when theOscars finalists are an-nounced in a little more thana week, and Spencer and es-pecially Plummer are likelyto take home a statuette Feb.26.

PHOTO BY SCOTT HANNIGAN | STAFFMarquis Teague defends a pass against Arkansas - Little Rock on Jan. 3.Teague will need to continue the progress he’s made during UK’s game Tuesday.
The Cats will face a fast-paced Arkansas squad fortheir return to Rupp ArenaTuesday night at 9 p.m.
Arkansas defeated theCats in last year’s matchup inovertime in Fayetteville,Ark., but UK players feel thatthey’ve grown in the pastyear.
“I think we just play withmore confidence at the end ofthe game,” sophomore for-ward Terrence Jones said. “Ithink last year we playedmore scared to lose than real-ly trying to play to win likewe are this year.”
The Razorbacks, winningeight of their last ninegames, have a similar styleof play and a unique press tobring to UK.
“They don’t press likenormal teams where if youcomplete a pass they rundown,” head coach JohnCalipari said. “They comerunning at you.”
But for the players, their
concern doesn’t rest with theway Arkansas will playthem.
“We’re not worried abouthow they play,” freshmanforward Kyle Wiltjer said.“We’re just worried aboutourselves and getting better.”
Despite Arkansas’ uncon-ventional pressing styles, theCats feel comfortable thatthe outcome will be success-ful.
“That’s the way we liketo play and that’s the way Ilike to play,” freshman guardMarquis Teague said.
Jones said the pace ofthis game can lead to moreoffensive successes for someplayers.
“It’s a faster pace, morethings happen and moreplays happen,” Jones said.“Different guys that makeplays on our team (get) moreopportunities and just equalsmore points for somebody.”
Since Calipari has ofteneluded to the Cats having a“will to win,” UK thinks itmay be due to a change inattitude.
“Different guys are step-ping up,” Jones said. “A lotof times last year we weredepending on the same guysto step up. No one wouldhave the heart to make theshots players are making thisyear.”
With the talk of the pressand depth this Arkansas teamhas to offer, Teague said theCats will be fine after havingexperience with breaking athreatening Louisville press.
“We’ll be fine as long aswe get in our positions anddo what Coach Cal tells us todo to break the press,”Teague said. “We’ll be finewith that. We’ve been finewith that since the Louisvillegame.”
Still, with the increasedpressure, the Razorbackswill likely try to strip theball away. Calipari said thisteam is a potential threat.
“(The press) is anotherthing for our point guard tofeel and our guards to feeland work their way throughit,” Calipari said. “They’re agood team.”

editorial letter to the editor
“Now is the time to lift our nation from thequick sands of racial injustice to the solid rock ofbrotherhood. Now is the time to make justice a real-ity for all of God’s children.”
Now is the time to acknowledge those wordsspoken by Martin Luther King Jr. in 1963 to seehow far we’ve come.
Forty-nine years later, King’s words have be-come a reality, embracing not only “his kind,” but“every kind” of human being.
Now, at UK, diversity is a goal among the insti-tution. Students are embraced not only for their raceand ethnicity, but also for reasons deepening thoseon the color wheel, such as student demographics,political ideals, religion and sexual orientation.
UK offers various programs that help studentsadapt to new academic lifestyles, spread awarenessof minority scholarships and offer support servicesand the Martin Luther King Jr. Cultural Center,which promotes diversity by hosting lectures and bystriving to develop a more hospitable college envi-ronment, and also offering student diversity pro-grams.
Catalyst, OutSource, the Muslim Students Asso-ciation and Interfaith Dialogue are all student pro-grams that promote diversity at UK.
We took Monday to celebrate the efforts ofKing and honor his actions, peaceful protests andmovements organized to achieve equal civil rights.
King’s marches, speeches, movements anddeath helped the civil rights movements, allowingfor justice and equality among Americans.
Diversity has been embraced since then, build-ing on others until it has reached where we are to-day.

Control online privacy, securityThese days, the only real way to en-
sure that you have online privacy is totake action and stay engaged before,during and after you are online. Formany of us, that means “all the time.”
By now, most Facebook and Twitterusers know to keep their profiles privateand to not publish their class schedulesor information on their whereabouts.
Even posting or tweeting about aparty is enough to tell some online“friends” that your apartment or dormmight not be occupied. And with GPStechnology, it won’t be uncommon for“friends” to soon be able to tell exactlywhere you are or aren’t.
But what about when you are actual-ly online and browsing the Internet orperusing the latest video clip that hasgone viral? If you don’t have yourbrowser privacy parameters set properlyand if you don’t run several clean-uputilities daily, your online “comings andgoings” may not be as private as youthink.
If you haven’t taken the time tocontrol the way your browser handlesweb or browser cookies, odds are thereare many websites and organizationsthat know where you’ve been browsing.
Many websites use cookies to trackweb browsing behavior (much likesome companies use sensors under thecarpet to track how and where con-
sumers walk through their stores.) And,if someone is “sniffing” the network,particularly on unencrypted public Wi-Finetworks, cookies can be interceptedand read by others.
Worse yet, cookies can be tamperedwith and such cookie poisoning can beused to make an online attack persistent.Then again, you may actually like theway some websites use this data. Somewebsites use cookies to remember yourpreferences and others use them so youdon’t have to log back in the next timeyou visit.
On the other hand, if you don’t likethe idea of websites maintaining a pro-file of your browsing habits, what’s adigital native to do?
If you have a Windows system, youmay already run Disk Cleaner and DiskDefragmenter regularly. However, if youreally want to clean up after yourself,you may want to downloadCCleaner.exe from Piriform.com (unfor-tunately, the download actually takesplace from FileHippo.com).
CCleaner is freeware that can re-move unused files from your system, al-lowing Windows to run faster and free-ing up valuable hard disk space. It alsocan clean traces of your online activi-ties, such as your Internet history andlocal shared objects, or flash cookies.Additionally, it contains a registry clean-er.
Another piece of free software thatcleans off your Windows system nicely
is Privacy Mantra from codeode.com. Itis a little more technical and detailed toset up than CCleaner, but it also does agreat job.
Mac users may want to take a lookat the Safari browser extension calledSafari Cookies (available from safariad-dons.com). Like CCleaner and PrivacyMantra, it will remove non-favoritecookies, including flash cookies, whenyou quit Safari. Firefox users may wantto consider adding on “Better Privacy,”which also removes regular and flashcookies when you close the browser.
Unfortunately, installing these addi-tional pieces of software onto your com-puter may be necessary if you trulywant to browse anonymously or if youdon’t like the idea of others being ableto tell where you’ve been online.
Note that neither UK nor the authormake any implied or expressed warrantyabout the aforementioned software. Likeall downloads, if you decide to use anyof the aforementioned software, do sowith caution and at your own risk.
Jan. 28 is Data Privacy Day. Seedataprivacyday2011.org for additionalinformation.

This letter is a response to a Jan. 12column titled “Modern coal mining isessential for the future.”
I would urge all UK students andLexington citizens to observe the twocoal-fired heating plants on UK’s cam-pus. One is located, ironically, next toUK’s hospital. The other is located onSouth Upper Street.
You won’t miss them. They are the buildings with the not-
quite-high-enough smokestacks churn-ing out the blue-gray smog that oftenhovers at street level, creeps into yourparked cars, onto your faces as youstroll downtown and through campus,into your homes and ultimately intoyour lungs.
While the issue of coal-fired heatingplants is often far removed because wecannot see them or the pollution theygenerate, we have two coal-fired heatingplants right in the middle of our city,churning out toxins such as mercury, ar-senic, dioxin and lead and creating acloud of smog that can be seen for milesin our city.
Do not be fooled — UK’s coal-firedheating plants do not use modern “cleancoal” technology, such as scrubbers.
As a citizen of Lexington, I am hor-rified by the idea that UK will burn coalin the middle of our city well into theforeseeable future because UK is un-willing to break its ties with “big coal”and transition 100 percent to cleaner en-ergy sources such as natural gas.
Let us all observe UK’s two coal-fired heating plants, take an active inter-est in the health of ourselves, our family
and citizenry, and demand that UKclean up its act and stop polluting Lex-ington’s air and water.
