CELEBRATING 35 YEARS OF INDEPENDENCE

 

Students fasting to raise funds for world hunger

By Kristin Sherrard
news@kykernel.com

While most students will never
face the pangs of starvation, two stu-
dent groups are voluntarily fasting to
raise money and awareness about
starvation worldwide.

Beginning today at 10 am. and
ending tomorrow at 4 pm, students
are taking part in the 30-Hour
Famine. a nationally recognized
event supported by World Vision, to
kickoff the National Hunger and
Homeless Awareness Week.

For the event, sponsored by UK
student groups Students Taking Ac-

tion Globally (STAG) and Helping
Hands, participants can make an op—
tional $30 donation, the proceeds of
which will go to World Vision to help
improve hunger and poverty both
globally and domestically.

Star—covered nametags, which
read. “I am ‘Star'ving for Hunger”
will identify the 30—50 participating
students.

Event organizers look for the
event to be successful.

“We are hoping for it to become
an annual event,“ said Lexie Dress-
man, director of STAG.

Dressman contacted Kallie Turn-
er. director of Helping Hands, to help

collaborate on the event, because she
thought that it would be a good way
to help commemorate the awareness
week. Both Dressman and Turner
participated in the 30 Hour Famine in
high school, Dressman said.

“The famine brings the two sides
together." Turner said. adding that
both organizations address the issue
of hunger and poverty (Helping
Hands domestically and STAG glob-
ally).

According to the United Nations
Hunger Project website, about 24.000
people worldwide die from hunger or
hunger—related causes. Three-fourths
of these deaths are children under the

age of five.

Some students said participating
in the event was eye opening.

“Starving for 30 hours helps you
to reflect on yourself and on what
you have and just to be thankful,"
said Heather Young, a journalism
freshman and STAG member. “These
people are hungry all the time, and
afterwards I get to eat, so it just
opens my eyes to everything."

Dressman said she hopes people
will take notice of what the two
groups are doing.

“I‘m hoping that people will see
that we are starving for hunger, ask
us questions and wonder what we are

doing, which will help spread aware-
ness about this issue," Dressman
said. “We would also like to get peo-
ple involved with STAG and Helping
Hands and show them that if they are
interested in these issues, there is a
place on campus where they can act
on them."

Students interested in the event or
the student groups can visit the Stu-
dent Volunteer Center website at
www.uky.edu/VolunteerCenter or the
30 Hour Famine website at

formation.

 

Post editor
receives
center’s first
annual award

By Walker Martin
news®kykernelcom

After working for nearly 20 years to ensure
freedom of speech for Kentuckians, Judith Clabes
was recognized Oct. 19 with an award from the
Scripps Howard First Amendment Center.

“I am very honored by the recognition of the
first James Madison Award," Clabes said. “I am
glad to see the First Amendment Center continue
to grow in breadth and scope. and I think an annu-
al award is a very good undertaking.

‘The real reward for me. however is in seeing
the First Amendment Center grow into an impor-
tant. viable and active place knowing it will be
sustained and its work be ever more significant.
Its continued success is award enough."

Clabes is the first recipient of the award
which honors Kentuckians who have played a sig-
nificant role in promoting or defending First
Amendment values specifically freedom of the
press

“As an editor she was a strong defender of the
First Amendment and helped people to understand
what their government is doing." said Director of
the First Amendment Center Mike Farrell. “She
was the driving force of the University of Ken—
tueky s First Amendment Center and for the past
20 years she has been instrumental in seeing that
it is funded She s passionate about freedom of the
press and when you see what she s done in her
professional career it‘ s clear she means it.

Clabes started as the editor of the Kentucky
Post. Under her leadership the Post pursued gov-
ernment records and combated public officials
who attempted to keep such records from the pub-
lic.

In 1987. she helped start the First Amendment
Center in the School of Joumalism and Telecom-
munications at UK. In 1989. CBS newsman
Charles Kuralt appeared with Clabes at the cen-
ter's dedication ceremony.

“There would be no First Amendment Center
without Judy Clabes," said Buck Ryan. fonner di-
rector of the center. “She was the intellect behind
it and the one who rallied support financially: she
was the spirit behind It. There could be no finer
choice than Judith Clabes to receive the first
award.“

AI Cross a member of the center s advisory
committee also emphasized how appropriate it
was that C Iabes received the award.

Judy has been one of the most prominent
leaders in Kentucky for First Amendment rights
for more than twenty years. as a journalist and as
director of the Scripps Howard First Amendment
Center." said Al Cross member of the center's ad-

Documentary examines lives of AIDS orphans In Africa

By Linun Li
newsakykernele om

Many women in African countries are forced
to have unprotected sex with their philandering
husbands. and that's a problem, a UK professor
told students last night.

“We need to change the whole situation of
gender and sexuality in these African countries.“
said Marie-Antoinette Sossou. assistant professor
in social work at UK.

Sossou said leaders in some of these countries.
such as South Africa, won‘t even admit to these
problems or that their countries have AIDS epi-
demics.

Sossou spoke after the film. “Shouting Silent"
was shown last night at the Gaines Center‘s Bing~
ham-Davis House as the final film in the UK Gen-
der and Women's Studies 2006 film series.

“Shouting Silent." a documentary that ex-
plores the South African HIV/AIDS epidemic.
was directed by Renee Rosen and Xoliswa Sit-
hole.

An adult orphan who lost her mother to AIDS

in 1996. Sithole joumeyed back home in search of

other young women who lost their mothers the
same way. These young women now struggle to
raise themselves and, in many cases. their siblings.
on their own.

The first half of the film concentrated on a12-
year—old girl who lost both her parents to AIDS.
Alone and helpless. she was forced to live in a
squatter camp without a roof over her head.

The other main story in the film is about a I7-
year-old girl who has to take care of her seven sib-
lings and her four-year—old son. What's even more
unsettling is the fact that her younger sister is in
imminent danger of becoming another victim of

AIDS.

During the discussion after the film. Sossou
said that the orphan problem can only be solved
by containing the AIDS epidemic itself.

Currently Western countries are working to in-
crease the production of HIV/AIDS medication
and to decrease the cost of these dnigs. she said.
However. full global effort is required to over
come the epidemic.

Lauren Snyder. a biology freshman. came to
the film for her geography course on Third World
development. She left with more than her course
on her mind.

“It was a touching and emotional film to
watch,“ Snyder said. “It made me want to do
something to help."

People don‘t often hear about the orphans
bmught about by AIDS in the news. Snyder said.
She admitted that she hardly knew about the living

conditions of these orphans herself, Now she said
she reali/cs this Information should be shared by
the world so posilhe changes can be made.

According to the film. I2.l million children
In Africa have lost one or both of their parents to
AIDS. Public and private efforts have been put
into building orphanages and caring for these
children.

The film showed viewers the reality of these
orphans‘ lives. It “as saddening to some students.
but Eric Stephens. a secondary social studies edu~
cation junior. said he did not regret seeing it.

Stephens said the film gave him a more com-
prehensive understanding of the AIDS epidemic.

“I knew that these terrible things are happens
ing in Africa. but these individual stories rein-
force the knowledge that I already have."
Stephens said.

Bishop:

support gay
parishioners

By Louis Salaam
Los moms nuts

Trying to narrow the gap
between ministry and strict
core beliefs, the nation’s Ro-
man Catholic bishops Tuesday
affirmed the need to make
parishes more welcoming to
gay men and lesbians but said
people who engage in homo-
sexual activity should refrain
from receiving Communion.

The guidelines overwhelm-
ingly approved by the US.
Conference of Catholic Bish—
ops meeting in Baltimore
sought to create a framework
for being more supportive of
homosexual parishioners.

But critics said the guide-
lines convey a mixed message.
“I think it‘s a shame." said Ma—
riette Sawchuk. of Los Angeles,
a practicing Catholic and active
member of a group called Par-
ents and Friends of Lesbians
and Gays. “The message that
Jesus gives us is an inclusive
one. He always went out of his
way to support the marginal-
ized. and 1 think He would
want us Catholics to do the
same.”

Nicole Sotelo, a spokes-
woman for a Catholic group
called Call to Action, agreed.
“The bishops’ actions sadden
me because they will only mar-
ginalize the majority of
Catholics who believe it is im-
moral to discriminate against
gays and that it is ethical to use
birth control."

Conservative Judaism and
major Christian denominations
—— including the Episcopal
Church and Presbyterian
Church. U.S.A. — are con-
fronting similar questions this
year about the role of gays and
religion.

Also Tuesday. the Baptist
State Convention of North Car-
olina. the nation‘s second-
largest association of Baptist
churches. voted to cut its ties
with congregations that ap-
prove of homosexuality. adopt-
ing a policy that allows the
group to investigate whether

member churches are “gay
friendly."
"It’s not something we

wanted to do. but homosexuali-
ty is the only sin that has its
own advocacy group." Conven-
tion spokesman Norman Jame-
son said in a statement. “Those
advocacy groups are pushing
us into this stance. Other de-
nominations that waffle and
waver on the issue are getting
torn apart."

R. Scott Appleby. a profes-
sor of Catholic history at Notre
Dame University. summed up
the conundrum facing the bish-
ops.
“As pastors they wish to be
as compassionate. warm and

Vote to

loving. but as teachers they are
also required to teach church
doctrine as thoughtfully as they
can." Appleby said. The bish-
ops’ actions show they view
homosexual orientation as “dis-
ordered but not sinful." he said.

In a secret ballot. the bish-
ops voted 194 to 37, with one
abstention, to adopt a document
called “Ministry to Persons
with Homosexual Inclination:
Guidelines for Pastoral Care."
which was four years in the
making.

Written by Bishop Arthur J.
Serratelli of Patterson, N J ..
chairman of the bishops doc-
trine committee, the document
teaches that persons with “a ho-
mosexual inclination” must be
accepted with respect, compas-
sion and sensitivity, and it con-
demns violence. scorn and ha-
tred.

it also underlines the faith‘s
teaching that although homo-
sexual leanings are not neces-
sarily “rejected by God or the
Church." engaging in homo-
sexual activity is inherently sin-
ful and contrary to the divine
plan.

Specifically, the guidelines
encourage homosexuals to take
a more active role in church ac-
tivities but urges them to re—
main celibate and not tell any-
one other than close friends and
family about their sexuality.
The guidelines free gays of a
moral obligation to seek thera-
py. given that there is “no sci-
entific consensus” on the cause
of their sexual orientation.

The bishops also oppose
same-sex unions and adoption
by gay and lesbian couples. but
they recommend that priests
baptize their children. provided
they are raised in the Catholic
religion.

“The positive thing is that
bishops are trying and welcome
gays and lesbians into their
parishes," said Jesuit priest
James Martin. who has written
frequently on the subject. “The
drawback is that they are focus-
ing almost exclusively on sexu-
ality and repeat the church's
warnings. restrictions and ad-
monitions about it."

The bishops also called on
Catholics who “knowingly and
obstinately repudiate" church
teaching on moral issues to not
take Communion. The bishops
approved the document. “Hap-
py Are We Who Are Called to
His Supper." 201 to 24. with
two abstentions.

During the 2004 presiden-
tial campaign. St. Louis Arch-
bishop Raymond Burke said he
would refuse to give Commu-
nion to Democratic candidate
John F. Kerry because of Ker-
ry’s support for abortion rights.
On a voice vote. the bishops
declined to amend the docu-
ment to mention politicians.

Election results shou

By Tom lncantalupo

Newsday

Gasoline prices seem headed
upward again. but experts say
it‘s unrelated to last week‘s elec-
tion or efforts by Republicans to
get prices reduced before it.

ln fact. they say. the election
and the big Democratic Party
victories that gave them control
of the House and Senate aren‘t
likely to change anything in the
near term that will affect what
Americans pay for gasoline and
heating fuels.

“In the shon- to medium-
term. the change in Congress
has no impact whatsoever on
supplies and prices.“ said Kevin
Saville. managing editor of the
Americas Energy Desk in Man-
hattan for the petroleum infor-
mation company Platts.

For the longer term. experts
expect higher taxes on the oil
companies. more money for re-
search into alternatives to petro-
leum. better tax incentives for
consumers to buy fuel-saving
hybrids and. perhaps. higher
federal fuel economy standards.
But. they say. there are limits to
the US. govemment‘s ability to
influence a global market like

that of petroleum.

The decline in crude oil and
most refined products prices
since the summer was due partly
to a slowdown in demand for
petroleum because of high
prices and partly to a seasonal
slowdown in demand for gaso-
line with the end of the driving
season. Saville said.

A more important factor was
the mild hurricane season. ex—
perts say. free of the disruptions
of Gulf of Mexico petroleum in-
frastructure that sent gasoline to
more than $3 gallon last year.
“The storm season in the gulf
was pretty much nonexistent
this year." said Saville.

Experts believe prices could
rise funher in coming weeks. “If
we have generally mild weath—
er.“ said Saville. “people are go-
ing to be traveling for Thanks-
giving and be out shopping for
the holiday season ."

A cold winter could send
heating fuel prices climbing fur-
ther. but the political power shift
in Washington seems unlikely to
affect prices that soon.

One exception. experts say,
might be if the changes in the
American political landscape
can ease the so-called fear pre—

The Scripps Howard Foun‘
dation. whose corporate parent
owns the Kentucky Post. has
contributed nearly a quarter-mil—
lion dollars to First Amend-
ment-related programming ac-
tivities at the School of Joumal-
ism and Telecommunications. A
recent pledge of $250000 over
the next five years will increase
the Scripps Howard Founda-
tion‘s support to the half-million
dollar mark.

Clabes said the Center
worked to get the state‘s other
newspapers. lawyers and citi—
zens to pull together and focus
their energy on educating peo-
ple and protecting the First
Amendment rights of Kentuck—
ians.

“It has done significant edu-
cational programming. lectures.
conferences. and such to raise
visibility of the First Amend-
ment issues and concerns."
Clabes said. “An expanded Web
presence is vital to extending its
reach. l think you'll see more
aggressive advocacy of open
records and open govemment in
the future. and that‘s an impor—
tant role for the Center and a
key to increased public aw are—
ness of the challenges demoera»
cy faces."

The Center recently spon-
sored the eighth annual Scripps
Howard Foundation First
Amendment Celebration. Cele—
bration events featured Pulitzer
Prize winner .lcffery Marx on ii
book tour. public policy forums
on undecided voters in the pres~
idential election campaign. two
high school journalism work~
shops and a continuation of a
popular “First Amendment Ac»
lion" speaker series.

tensions. which have helped
keep oil more expensive than

But Andy Lipow‘. president
of the Houston consulting cont
pany Lipow Oil Associates Llc.
said it's a stretch to believe that
Democratic influences could
dissuade Iran from developing
nuclear weapons or persuade
anti-govemment militants in
Nigeria to stop attacking oil pro-
duction facilities. “No.1 on my
list of political influences is
Nigeria." said Lipow. “and I
don't think there's anything we
can do about it.“

Some believe a Democratic
Congress will look more favor-
ably at raising the federal fuel
economy corporate average for
cars. new at 27.5 miles per gal-
lon. as a way to reduce con-
sumption.

But such efforts could be
thwarted by the potential harm
such an increase can do to Gen-
eral Motors. Ford and Chrysler.
whose cars tend to be larger and
thirstier and who have strong
Democratic support in Washing
ton.

Experts believe Democrats

also are likely to take a harder

line against oil companies if

prices soar and “gouging" is
suspected. "I think what you're
going to see is a decidedly less
friendly. less accommodating.
Congress to big oil." Saville
said.

New York‘s Sen. Hillary
Rodham Clinton. a Democrat
who may seek the presidency in
2008. has called for an oil proll
its tax. new research. tax incen-
tives and other steps to reduce
the nation‘s consumption of for
cign oil by half - or 8 million
barrels a day ,2 by 2025.

But. ultimately. experts say.
the new Congress ~ even with
help from a Democratic presi»
dent. ifone is elected in 2008
can‘t change the fundamental
reason oil prices have doubled
since 200i: growing demand for
energy from China. India and
other ‘modemizing nations.

The U.S. Energy Informa-
tion Administration estimates
that. by 2030. global energy
consumption will grow by more
than 70 percent. with Asia lead-
ing the way.
