Others fear that cell phone use is dangerous. Since 1995, 37 states have proposed legislation that would regulate usage while driving. Cheryl Jensen, a freshman in art use education, agrees that while driving is unsafe. "People talking on the phone while they're driving drives me up the wall," she said. "It's a death trap." However, many students find that cellular phones are convenient and provide security. Kim Stewart, a junior in elementary education, said she bought her cellular phone for making calls home and emergencies. "I got one so I can call home or if my car breaks down I won't get stranded. But I don't usually keep it on," she said. KENTUCKY KERNEL The current taiiy for U.S. cellular phone subscribers is about 103 million people, according to the Cellular Telecommunications Industry Association. And UK is no exception in the trend that is sweeping across college campuses. Paula Payton, a local cellular sales and service representative, said a large portion of their business comes from college students. "About two out of five customers arc students," she said. She believes the large popularity of cell phones among students is because many of them are far from home and some of the programs that companies offer arc cheaper than calling cards. Rodney Sellers, a senior in computer science, finds cell phones annoying at times. long-distan- I cell-pho- cell-pho- ce ne U Wire Authorities say Anderson Black, z?t killed the children to get revenge on his wife.

Debate organizers had planned for all protests to be contained in an orange-fence- d section of a ut demonstrators including a handful of Duke University students-gathe- red in groups to discuss their disappointments in the political ball-fiel- d. But by the time the candidates had begun to spar, about 600 protesters proceeded to Wake Forest's north entrance. The protest began with a street skit, which was guarded by a row of state troopers standing shoulder to shoulder and decked in riot gear. In the skit a massive papier-mach- e puppet depicted Al Gore and George W. Bush as a beast. The skit was organized by the North Carolina Green Party, whose presidential candidate Ralph Nader vas not included in the debate and will not be on North Carolina's Nov. 7 ballot. "I'm here basically because I believe there is no democracy in America," said sociology graduate student Tanya Golash. "We have these candidates that are essentially the same on all the issues," she said. Winston-SaleState University student Michael Anderson gave a speech on the need for increased two-head- process. Some broad concerns that repeatedly emerged in the group discussions included the corrupting influence of corporate America on politics and media, the paucity of voices represented in the political process and the public's overall apathy toward these issues. "Who cares about gas prices, about injustice, about the economy and the environment?" asked Del Basdeo. "People look at us on TV and think, 'What are these idiots screaming about? I've got my dog and my armchair and my kids.m Doug Stuber, chair of the state Green Party, said the night's demonstrations gave many the chance to express their dissatisfaction with party politics. "I think it provides an opportunity to reach the media with their concerns for America's fading democracy," he said.
