PEOPLE IN THE NEWS
John Mellencamp and wife Roger calls for "moore"
answer to political criticism iodized salt in Cambodia
BLOOMINGTON, Ind. (AP) — John
Mellencamp said he and his wife, model Elaine
Irwin-Mellencamp, were sur
prised by the negative reaction to
a song on his new album that
questions the war in Iraq.
The couple answered criti
cism of “To Washington” in an
essay published in Thursday’s
Herald-Times.
Since the song was released
as a single as the war with Iraq
was beginning in March, the cou
ple has taken heat for its political
includes an apparent critique of
MELLENCAMP
content, which
President Bush.
They said some people had mistakenly labeled
them pacifists. Irwin-Mellencamp described an
encounter with one person who said the way to test
a pacifist was to punch him in the nose and see how
long it took him to hit back.
“I’ll tell you one thing about the Mellencamps,”
the 52-year-old rocker told the newspaper for a story
Thursday. “We don’t believe in killing people and
we don’t believe in war, but we’re not pacifists.”
The Mellencamps said they had questions about
U.S. policy in Iraq and on other issues, and they were
surprised by the negative reaction to the song, which
is included on the album, “Trouble No More.”
“I don’t understand why people think it’s not OK
to question the government, I really don’t,” said
Irwin-Mellencamp.
Siegfried accepts World
Entertainment Award on
PHNOM PENH, Cambodia (AP) - Rojs
Moore was shaken and stirred Thursday to call f?
greater production of iodized salt in Cambodia|
prevent diseases caused by a lack of the nutrient
“This is a serious problem, although it’snots
dramatic as sort of an epidemic,” said the 76-yeai
old fonner James Bond stiff, a goodwill ambassado;
for UNICEF who arrived in Cambodia Wednesday
to campaign for iodized salt.
“It is something that is there and has to bee*
batted,” he said in a telephone interview bet®
heading out to Kampot province to visit its sail
fields. Kampot is a major salt producing regionl
miles southwest of Phnom Penh.
According to the United Nations, the percent^
of households in the developing world using iodized
salt surged from less than 20 percent in 1990 to711
percent in 2000. But in Cambodia, only 12 perce®
of households consume iodized salt.
“That is not good enough," said Moore. “1
means that 88 percent of the population are beiiif
denied the chance (to lead) a healthy life.”
Last year, 46 million children were bom withoui
protection from iodine deficiency, the world’s greal
est cause of preventable mental retardation, accoid
ing to UNICEF. More than half the children bom in
Cambodia each year are at risk of developing iodine
deficiency disorders.

FISCHBACHER
HAMBURG, Germany (AP) — Siegfried
Fischbacher of “Siegfried and Roy” fame received
a special award on behalf of his partner, Roy Horn,
and promised the crowd at the
third annual World Awards the

Fischbacher had requested a
duplicate World Entertainment
Award, presented to the pair at
the ceremony that lasted into the
wee hours Thursday, for Horn,
who’s recovering from an Oct. 3
attack by one of the white tigers
featured in the duo’s show.
“The Siegfried who you see before you here will
soon return again as Siegfried and Roy,” the
German-bom magician told the cheering crowd at
the ceremony recognizing outstanding contributions
to society by men.
Fonner “Superman” superstar Christopher
Reeve received a lengthy standing ovation as he
made his way across the stage in a wheelchair to
accept a prize for his life’s work.
“I’ve always believed that nothing is impossi
ble,” said Reeve, who was paralyzed in a horseback
riding accident. Accepting the award, a small statue
of August Rodin’s “The Thinker,” he called on peo
ple to live bravely.
Nobel laureate and former Soviet leader Mikhail
Gorbachev, president of the Austrian-based organiza
tion that stages the ceremony, presented the awards.
Michael Douglas, Bee Gees singer Robin Gibb
and ex-pop singer Yusuf Islam, formerly Cat Stevens,
also were recognized.
Thirteen-year-old Ali Abbas, who lost both of his
arms during the Iraq war, accepted a prize for people
of the year on behalf of Iraqi doctors, recognized for
their work during and after the attacks.
Karl Lagerfeld was awarded the world fashion
prize, Morgan Freeman won artist of the year and for
mer Polish President Lech Walesa was honored with
the prize for tolerance.
German cyclist Jan Ullrich received a prize for
fairness in sports for waiting for rival Lance
Armstrong to recover from a fall in one of the final
stages of this year’s Tour de France.
