UK health service
short on flu shots

By Dariush Shala
iii: KENIUCKV stint—ti

University Health Services officials said
yesterday most students won't be able to re-
ceive flu shots this year.

They usually vaccinate about 3.000 to
4.000 students and university personnel a
year. But as of yet, none will be able to get a
vaccine through health service. said Karen
Clancy. associate director of University
Health Services.

The Centers for Disease Control and Pre-
vention in Atlanta. released a notification to
flu shot providers all over the country Tues-
day notifying them that an enormous short-
age of vaccine had occurred.

“The entire country is in flux." Clancy
said.

British vaccine manufacturer Chiron
Corporation recently had its license to manu-
facture flu shots revoked for
three months. Chiron pro-
duces half of the flu shots
used in the United States.

Because of the shortage.
flu shot distributors nation-
wide are feeling the pinch.
with only half of the normal
amount of flu shots available.

The UK clinic has not re-
ceived any vaccine, and Clan-
cy said getting the vaccine at
all would be difficult. If they
received any vaccines, she
said it would be available only
to those considered to be at
risk.

According to the CDC.
those who meet the “high risk" criteria in»

Gay marriage issue
may not affect races

By Emily Hagedorn

THE KENTUCKY KERNEL

While some experts have
touted gay marriage amend-
ment referendums as a vehi-
cle to get non-voters to the
polls — which could affect
other races ,, Kentucky‘s ref-
erendum won‘t have that ef-
fect locally. said political sci-
ence professors.

“I‘m doubtful there will be
someone who will only vote
on marriage and not on any-
thing else." said Ken ()stran-
der. the executive director of
The Family Foundation. a
conservative [exington-based
group.

The conservative vote is
the vote that would gain from
the amendment. and most of
Kentucky already seems
clinched by Republicans, said
Bradley Canon. a political sci-
ence professor

“There aren't many close
races.“ he said. “I don't think
there will be an impact on
other races."

Historically. campaign is-
sues have been used to mobi-
lize support for one side. said
Stephen Voss. also a political
science professor. Usually
these issues are retained in
the campaign platform; the
gay marriage issue. though. is
actually on the ballot. he said.

“For any campaign. you
try to find an issue that your
base of voters feels strongly
about." he said. "It (the gay
marriage amendment) cuts
right at policy"

The same tactic was used
in the early 20th century in
anti-alcohol policies around
the country. he said.

These types of issues help
bring to the polls the “evan-
gelical religious right." Voss
said.

But while the possibility
that gay marriage might stir
some conservatives to vote. it
might not make much of a
difference in the election lo
cally.
President Bush carries 53
percent of Kentuckians sur~
veyed. with Democrat Sen.
John Kerry polling at 38 per-

0

cent. according to the
Louisville Courier-Journal‘s
Bluegrass Poll.

Incumbent Republican
US. Sen. Jim Bunning holds
51 percent of the likely voters
surveyed. compared with 34
percent for Democrat state
Sen. Dan Mongiardo and 15
percent undecided. the poll
showed.

The one anomaly is in-
cumbent 6th District Rep. Ben
Chandler. Democrat. who is
expected to win over Republi-
can state Sen. Tom Buford.
Canon said.

Also. gay marriage isn't
only an issue for Republicans.
While Kerry is against gay
marriage but for civil unions.
Vice President Dick Cheney
supports gay marriage.

Also. Mongiardo was
among the 33-5 majority to
put the amendment on the
Nov 2 ballot in the Kentucky
Senate in March.

The liberal side of the gay-
marriage issue could also
gain votes from historically
non-voters the college-age
demographic.

”People under 25 are one
of our strongest support
bases." said Moya Hallstein.
Lexington fundraiser for the
Inuisvillebased “No on the
Amendment" campaign.

The group is contacting
student groups. campaigning
at local bars and talking to
classes. among other things.
she said.

Canon. though. said he
doubts this will make much of
an impact.

"Young people who are ap
athetic are probably going to
be apathetic about this too."
he said.

But while the amendment
might not have much impact
on this election. it could have
some long-term effects. Voss
said.

It could lead people to be
more active in other issues
and elections and hamper Re»

port from homosexuals. he
said.

Students discuss election issues

By Troy Lyle
Illi mourn KERNfl

With only 27 days left until the
presidential election. students. faculty
and staff gathered outside the Student
(‘enter yesterday afternoon to discuss
the public policy issues facing young
voters.

Same-sex marriage and
the war in Iraq were com
mon topics among the about
100 students in attendance.

“Young people can easily
relate to both of these is
sues," said Jenny Grinstead.
an integrated strategic com
munications sophomore.

(lrinstead said she Hm,
siders herself an informed
voter. but said she learned a
lot about samesex marriage
and gun control at the forum.

The event. sponsored by
The (‘itizen Kentucky Project. gave
students an opportunity to express
their opinions about the issues they
find important in the upcoming elec<
tiiiri.

The goals of this forum included
getting students to talk about election
issues. informing undecided voters

and letting everyone know that their
vote counts. said .Iosh Bailey. an l-an-
lish and journalism freshman and one
of the event organizers.

“Considering the response and the
number of students who attended. I
would say that the event was a suc-
cess." he said.

agreed.

”I‘m happy so many
students showed up and
participated." she said.
"Though I was surprised
to hear some of the stu-
dents basing their entire
vote on the war in Iraq
and not some of the other
domestic issues."

Buck Ryan. executive
director of the First
Amendment Center and director of
The Citizen Kentucky Project. de-
scribed the forum as “wildly success-
ful." especially with all of the things
that could have gone wrong. like the
weather and low student participa-
tion.

“It was great to hear these students

talk about civil issues so civilly." Ryan
said. “Our goal was to bring teaching.
research and public service together
into one moment. I believe we
achieved this today."

Not all of the students who attend-
ed. however. agreed the event was a
success.

Many of the students who vocal-
th‘d their opinions seemed unpre-
pared and politically incorrect. said
Rhiannon Goad. a journalism fresh-
man.

“I think everyone did the best they
could considering this was an infor-
mal event." she said. “I definitely
learned some things today. but I wish
more of the students who spoke were
prepared and had their facts straight."

More students should participate
in events like this. said Jacob Shepard.
an agricultural communications se—
nior.

“Students are much more in-
formed than people give them credit
for." Shepard said. “I definitely left the
forum more informed and a lot more
encouraged about my presidential
choice."

 Howard Stern announces move to satellite radio

Morning talk show host says move
motivated by tougher FCC regulations

ngloward lturtz and Frank Ahrens
W inf niamcron Posr '

WASHINGTON Howard
Stern announced yesterday that he
is leaving the Viacom broadcasting
empire to join the World of satellite
radio. creating what could be a
breakthrough moment for a three-
year—old medium.

The raunchy radio morning
man stunned his staff by saying he
has signed a five-year. $500 million
deal with Sirius Satellite Radio.
portraying the move as a response
to "censorship" efforts by the Fed-
eral Communications Commission.
which does not regulate the content
of satellite programs.

“It has been one big nightmare
the last couple of years. really the
last 10 years." Stern. who plans to
fulfill the final 15 months on his \‘i-
acorn contract. said in an interview.

“I lost my joy for radio."

As for his new home. he said: “i
believe this is the future. This satel-
lite radio will overtake terrestrial
radio."

Combined with the defection of

Bob Edwards. the former National
Public Radio host who debuted this
week on XM Satellite Radio. Sir
ius's Washington-based rival.
Stern‘s decision could lead a flood
of subscribers to begin paying for
what has long been taken for grant
ed as a free part of the media land
scape.

Sirius. which last year signed a
seven~yeart $220 million contract to
carry all regular-season National
Football League games. charges
$12.95 a month. XM's monthly fee is
$9.99.

"We think this is a transform
ing event as the top radio personal-
ity has moved to a new technology
and a relatively new company." said

Joseph Clayton. chief executive of

New York~based Sirius. adding that

half the country has never heard of

satellite radio.

He said Sirius. which has
600,000 subscribers. can turn a prof
it on the deal which includes a
new studio and salaries for Stern
and his on«air gang if the move
attracts liiiillion new paving cus»
tomers. Stern's show is estimated

to draw more than ltiniillioii listen-
ers

Stern. .30. who pioneered the
syndication of a local radio show.
likened his motivation to the (Te
ative freedom that comedians enjoy
on Him as opposed to the broadcast
networks. He accused "religious
groups" of "throwing a jihad at my
advertisers. threatening them. biil
lying them. threatening boycotts."

He also castigated the chairman of

the Ft‘t‘. which has been fining
Stern's stations for more than a
decade.

"We can't even figure out what
Michael Powell. (‘oliii Powell‘s son.
wants." Stern said.

"This guy is able to tell every
one what‘s decent and what isn't.
You‘ve got the government ripping
apart the show "

He said that comedy bits he was
able to air two years ago talking
about bodily functions. as opposed
to hardcore sex were now
barred by \‘iaconi. The company
was recently hit with a 3550.000
Ft‘(‘ line for .lanet Jackson‘s breastv
baring Super Bowl escapade on
(‘88

"\'iaconi's back was up against
the wall." Stern said. “They are

terday. “It is not surprising that no-
table perforiiiers and _|(ilil‘lltlllsts
are turning to a medium that al
lows them to paint with a broader
palette.”

More programs and performers
will migrate to pay cable and satel-
lite channels unless (‘ongress holds
them to the same decency stan-
dards as broadcasters. Powell main»
tains.

’I‘he Stern announcement is a
setback for \'iacom's 185 stations.
since a popular morning show can
generate as much as 50 percent of a
station‘s revenue.

.loel Hollander. president of Via-
com‘s infinity Broadcasting. said
he would “take Howard's
headaches all day long. He is one of
the great broadcasters of the era.
But nobody's bigger than any sin-
gle medium." As for the cost of
Stern's new deal. Hollander said:
”At $100 million (a year). not hap-
pening on my watch. l'm not going
to spend that kind of money. To me
that is fiscally irresixmsible."

With guests ranging from
celebrities to porn stars and a
seetningly endless stream of
women who are coaxed into disrob-
ing in the studio. Stern is a huge
draw among a group coveted by ad-
vertisers males 18 to 49 in

“Viacom's
back was up
against a wall.
They are
fighting for
their lives."

many of the 46 markets that carry
his five-hour show. While breaking
the news yesterday. he told a 21-
year-old model: “I‘ll have to un-

the middle of a big announce-
ment."

Sirius. which offers 120 chan-
nels of commercial-free music.

available to more than 10 million
people through the Dish satellite

F LY ON THE WALL

Avio disappoints on Fridays

Friday is ladies' night at Avio
women can enter at no charge. The es-
tablishment's only saving grace was
that I didn’t pay for my first lackluster
experience.

In retrospect, I might have been too
harsh about my Avio
premiere. so I gave
the place a few more
opportunities to wow
me after that fateful
Friday. I found that
there’s a huge differ-
ence in attendance
on Thursdays versus
Fridays — it is the
place to be on Thurs-
day, so expect to wait
in line for at least 15
minutes.

In fact, Avio en-
joys a healthy flow of customers all
through the week It just seems that
Fridays aren’t big party nights, even
though ladies pay no admission. I
think it could be that too many stu-
dents go out of town to enjoy the offi-
cial weekend somewhere else.

And I think that’s a shame __. Avio
has the potential to be the best
nightspot in town But my first Friday
night Avio experience turned out to be
a slight disappointment.

I arrived around 10:30 p m. expect-
ing a line out front and a packed crowd
in all four of the club’s theme areas ——
after all, Avio was formerly AIA. and
that’s the scene I usually encountered
on any given Friday night.

There was no line and no crowd. In
fact. there were so many empty spaces
in the parking lot next door that I
thought the place was closed.

Or that I had slept through the
weekend and it was Sunday.

Nothing makes me feel more like a
loser than being the first to arrive at a
bar. Where was everyone? I‘m not sure
where they were. but it wasn't at Avio.

Though the club's ownership has
changed, it looks and feels like AlA
with a minor facelift —~- and minus the
crowd.

Dance club

Drumming up my optimism. I
checked out the dance club first. At
10:32 pm, there were two people in the
room, both of which were drinking at
one of the two bars.

I ordered a bottle of beer and my
companion ordered a vodka cranberrV
from the very attractive bartender. Al—
though the beer was chilled to perfec-
tion. I’m not sure it was worth $2.75.

The vodka cranberry. on the other
hand. tasted great. but was a little
weak.

I discovered that a new bathroom
has been constructed since my last trip
to AIA. It smelled of industrial cleaner

, admittedly better than urine and

vomit l was used to from the AIA days
, and the two stalls had their own
door.

The walls. however. were smeared
with black streaks and what appeared
to be makeup. It honestly looked as if
Tammy Fay Baker had rubbed her face
against the wall and then kicked it re»
peatedly.

floor. so all 17 of us were huddled in
front of the bar with a 3:1 girl/guy ra-
tio.

The Verve Concert Hall

Though tables and chairs are scat»
tered about and there's room near the
stage for a mosh pit. this particular
evening didn't showcase any musical
talent. The band scheduled for the
night canceled at the last minute.

At this point. I went outside for
some fresh air to see if anything was
happening elsewhere.

Sandbar and volleyball court

The U-shaped venue encloses a full-
size outdoor sand volleyball court and
“sandbar” on an open deck. When you
step outside. you have entered smokers
territory. so be prepared not to enjoy
“fresh“ air.

Although no one was using the
sand volleyball court. 25 people were
occupying the sandbar on the deck by
10:50 pm. I'm thinking it was the abili-
ty to smoke and that attracted this
group to go outside.

Sports bar .

At 10:55 pm. six customers drank
and watched the four televisions in the
sports bar. Although I'm not a sports
fan. this bar looked like a great place
to catch a game and share an appetizer
with some friends.
