CELEBRATING 35 YEARS OF INDEPENDENCE

 

ine library opens with focuson future

By Jill Latter
news®kykernel.com

Students used gluestieks and construction
paper to create their own zines at the opening
of the UK Zine Archive yesterday afternoon in
the Niles Gallery of the Fine Arts Library.

Shanna Sanders. an English and social theo—
ry senior, and Patrick Smith. an English senior.
created the archive so that there would be a lo-
cation on campus to hold zines, homemade

publications that focus on original subject mat-
ter.

The Archive has a focus on southern and
environmental issues. Smith said the unique
concentration of the collection shows culture in
the south outside of the mainstream. and in-
creases environmental awareness in southern
states.

“We‘d like to contribute to the culture of

Kentucky." Smith said.
The opening. sponsored by the Gender and
Women‘s Studies Program and the Feminist Al-

liance. also featured instruction in spine- bind-
ing. a preview of the zine documentary‘ $100
and a T— Shirt" and free food

Sanders and Smith began working on the
UK Zine Archive as a part of an lndependent
Studies class last year. The two received an un-
dergraduate summer research grant for $2 000
from Eureka! an lntemet source that helps stu-
dents secure grants to continue their work.

Sanders said that she would like the archive
to grow and hopes people will use the collec-
tion for research purposes.

Smith and Sanders also urged students to
create their own zines. The two instruct an Eng—
lish 104 class teaching the importance of zines
and how students can produce their own publi-
cations.

Smith advises students who wish to create
their own zine to “try and think about what
makes (them) different from everyone else.“

“Do whatever interests you." Sanders said.
“You don‘t have to be artsy at all.”

Lawyer calls for
more reporter
protection

By Blake M. Tyre and Juliann Vachon
news@kykernel.com

 

More protection is needed for journalists in an age
where they are “under siege."

That's what Lucy Dalglish. the executive director
of the Reporters Committee on Freedom of the Press.
said last night during “The State of the First Amend—
ment." sponsored by UK‘s First Amendment Center.

Students and faculty came to hear Dalglish discuss
the past. present and possible future legal protections
joumalists and their sources.

Dalglish said 2006 had been a rough year in terms
of first amendment protection. She cited three cases
specifically where journalists had been sentenced to
jail time for not turning over sources or documentation.

“Once again. we have come to a period in time
when the executive power of government is going
unchecked." she said. “Reporters are under siege."

The first half of her speech focused on the history
of protections for joumalists.

Much of the talk centered around the 1972 US.
Supreme Court decision in Branzburg v. Hayes. In that
decision. the court found that journalists are not pro—
tected in criminal trials if they had information on a
crime.

To counter this. 32 states arid Washington. DC.
have created “shield laws” to protect journalists from
being forced to turn over information. Twelve of the 32
state shield law's include protection for anonymous
sources.

Dalglish stressed the need for a shield law at the
federal level to provide an adequate level of protection
for journalists and their sources. While 99 such laws
have been presented before Congress. none has passed.

“Any statutory protection must provide protection
for confidential sources. ‘ she said

She discussed the current state of first amendment
protections and took audience questions in the latter
half of her presentation.

The current presidential administration‘s use of the
States Secrets Act. she said. has been a hindrance to
getting to the truth.

"This administration is all about control of their
message. she said “Right after 9/11. I .200 foreign na-
tionals were imprisoned. We still dont know who
those people were.

Dalglish also discussed the backlash journalists
have received in attempts to obtain information.

Right now. we have more federal subpoenas pend
ing since the I970 s. she said.

Most of these subpoenas seek the anonymous
sources that journalists used to get their information.

Specifically. she cited Judith Miller. who spent two-
and-zrhalf months in jail for failing to reveal her source
in the investigation of who leaked the name of a covert
CIA operative.

“Nearly all of the key witnesses in that case were
journalists." Dalglish said.

There's “no question" that the subpoenas are scar-
ing away sources who would have normally gone to the
media. she said.

“There‘s no question that these cases have had a

Self- proclaimed Vampire says shes not the only one

By Blair Thomas
news@kykernel com

The garlic theories and stakes

through the heart may be the stuff

of movies anti folklore. but sortie
still believe vampires are real and
thriving in modem culture.

Michelle Belanger. a self-pro-
claimed psychic vampire. spoke
to UK students about the subcul—
ture of modern vampires last
night in Memorial Hall as a part
of Theoretical Thursdays. spon-
sored by the Student Activities
Board.

“We create subcultures in our
society because people want to
free themselves from mundane
reality and from a world stripped
of excitement." Belangcr said.
“There are all kinds of subcul-
tures: jocks. hippies. gangsters.
Vampires are just another group

expressing themselves."

Belangcr identified three
types of vampires in the modern
world: life-stylers. psychic vam-
pires and sanguinarians. or
blorxl-‘drinkers.

"Yes there are even blood~
drinkers.” Belanger said. “This is
not something confined to Dracu-
la and black—and-whitc horror
movies. There are many vam»
pirCs who insist they need to
drink human blood."

According to a census Be~
langer took in 2000. only 17 per-
cent of self-proclaimed vampires
are blood-drinkers.

These vampires are often reg-
istered nurses so they do not hurt
themselves and they only drink
the blood of people who are will-
ing.

“1 know it is hard to believe
that people are actually willing to

do this." Belanger said. "But I
promise you there are and these
people are tested for STD's very
frequently to ensure their health
isn‘t compromised."

Porphyrics. often called the
Vampire Disease. is a disease that
is extremely rare but has been
found in individuals who call
themselves blood-drinkers.

This disease causes severe
anemia and often causes physical
craVings for blood.

”It is much like the pregnant
mothers who eat paper or clay for
the nutrients they have." Be-
langer said. “They don't realize
at the time that they are eating
dirt. but their body craves what it
is lacking."

Psychic vampires make up 33
percent of the modem vampire
population according to Be-
langer‘s census.

“As psychic vampires. we not
only have psychic abilities but
we also are people who crave and
feed on vital energy.“ Helangcr
said. “Many of you may have en—
countered one. it is a person who
touches you a lot when they talk
and who after they leave. you
find yourself mentally and physi-
cally exhausted."

The remaining population of
vampires is lifestylers. These
people illustrate their identifica—
tion with the vampire world as a
fashion statement. as a sexual
fetish or as a liberated persona.
Belanger went on to call Hot
Topic the “official vampire
store."

“By definition. the vampire
subculture is made 11p of anyone
who identifies with vampires."
Belanger said. “For the most part.

Women’s

spot

Confident after recording a fourth straight
shut out — a H) victory against a ranked Ten~
nessee squad last Friday — the UK women's
soccer team seemed more and more to look
like the team to beat in the Southeastern C‘on-
ference‘s eastern division.

But after Sunday‘s l-(l loss to Georgia last
Sunday. the holder of the third worst record in
the conference. the Cats shot of winning the
division decreased.

“Coming into last
Sunday we underesti~
mated Georgia." junior
midfielder Sarah Gaunt
said. “We didn’t take
them as seriously as we
took Tennessee and
that hurt us from the
beginning of the
game."

With the SEC tour-
nament less then two
weeks away. head
coach Warren Lipka
told his team that they
couldn‘t gauge a team hagar‘tirfinLTr’"‘rt-t~7fia
alone.

“We’re finding that out every weekend."
Lipka said. “They're too many good teams in
this league to take it easy."

The Cats are currently tied with Arkansas
(9-3—3. 3-2-3) for the eighth and final spot in
the tournament.

But wins against Mississippi State (2-l3.

“We had a good group of

guys with us and just playing
dodgeball is the best part." Me-
chanical lingineer junior (‘lint
Mc(‘ry slal said.

()yerall the team ended the
loot) tournament season with a
375 record but hope the lessons
they learned last year will carry
them through this season.

“We're a lot more experi-
enced this year. and I‘m pretty
e\cited about the tact that
there‘s a lot more people coming
out to play this year." tiinior vet~

eran David Abner said. The
team has been practicing in
Alumni (iym on Wednesdays
and looks to add 10 more play—
ers to the roster.

“We have had a consistent
()0 to 70 kids coming out to
every practice: there‘s a lot of
promising young talent,” said
senior co—presidcnt McFarland.
The team has recently been hav
ing open practices for anyone,
male or female. that wants to
play.

Mark l’riggc is one of the
many young hopefuls looking to

join the dodgeball team this

year.

"Dodgeball is a ftin sport to
play. I like to hit people in the
face." said Pi‘igge.

The team will continue to
hold open practices until the end
of fall when the team has to
make a decision on the final ros—
ter for the toumament team.

According to Levi McFar—
land. a team calendar is in the
works that showcases some of
the star players. and the team is
looking into getting sponsorship
for a scholarship program to aid
in recruiting efforts. The team
has already achieved a portion
of its goals in adding SOBE en-
ergy drinks as a sponsor.

“Dodgeball is just fun to
play... kids like me might not
excel in other sports beside
dodgeball." said Prigge.
