No southern hospitality in Va. Duals WRESTLING from page B1 the Quakers were fairly consistent in their performance.

However, unlike the home matches, the Quakers gave a med iocre per for ma nce against some stiffer competition, including No. 15 Edinboro, a tough No. 24 Kent State team and Navy, who has four

ranked wrestlers.

They managed just two wins in five dual matches while in Hampton, Va. , and saw their best wrestler lose by both pin and major decision.

Peterkin lost by major decision to former national champion and second-ranked Paul Donahoe of Edinboro and by pin to Navy’s unranked Prescott Garner.

“I guess mistakes are part of learning,” Peterkin said.

The Quakers fell to the Fighting Scots and the Midshipmen by a combined score of 51-25.

“It’s good to wrestle the best

guys,” Peterkin said. “[It is a] good indication of where I’m at and what I need to work on.”

If their results against these good teams are any indication of what the Quakers need to work on, then they had better get cracking. The Red and Blue lost one other dual, 1915, to the Golden Flashes, and recorded lackluster victories over Liberty and North Dakota State.

“That’s why we wrestle these matches, so we can correct our mistakes,” Eiter said.

“You have to wrestle a kid like Donahoe to realize what you’re getting yourself into.”

“It was a good warm-up,” coach John Ceralde told Penn Athletics. “The routines looked

good, but some unexpected injuries kept us from where we should have been.”

On the balance beam, senior Sarah Parsons earned a 9.625, Penn’s highest score in any event. However, Ball State’s Nicki Sleeper had the best score of the day with a 9.875 on the vault.

Senior captain Ilana Sinkin (left) led the women’s fencing team to a 3-1 record in the Philadelphia Multi-Meet this weekend, losing only to Northwestern. The men fared better, going 4-0.

Three points from perfect

By RICKY KATZ Staff Writer rlkatz@dailypennsylvanian.com

Penn men’s and women’s fencing coach Dave Micahnik describes himself as a perfectionist.

As a recent inductee into the U.S. Fencing Hall of Fame, Micahnik is always looking to improve his teams’ performances.

On Saturday and Sunday, both teams began their seasons at the Philadelphia Invitational Multi-Meet in Hutchinson Gymnasium. Overall, although his teams went a combined 7-1 on the weekend, Micahnik still thinks they have a lot of work to do.

T he women’s t e a m f i n ished 3-1 at the Multi-Meet with victories against North C a r ol i n a , 21- 6 , F a i rleig h Dickinson, 25-2, and Sacred Heart, 22-5, and a close loss to Northwestern, 15-12 .

The men’s team finished 4-0 with victories against North Carolina, 18-9, Johns Hopkins, 19-8, Sacred Heart, 22-5, and New Jersey Institute of Technology, 27-0.

“The fencers were a little bit nervous,” Micahnik said.

“That cost us on the women’s match with Northwestern.”

The women performed very well given that Saturday was their first competitive meet of the year.

“I am confident that we could beat Northwestern in a few weeks,” Micahnik said. “They had more competitive action than us.”

Senior captain Ilana Sinkin also acknowledged the effects of the team’s lack of competition so far.

“Northwestern has a lot better control over the time,” she said. “We had first competition jitters, and we need to learn to not rush and slow down.”

Freshmen Laura Paragano, Noelle Tay and Dominika Franciskowicz impressed in their debut and will most likely earn starting slots for the Quakers as the season progresses.

“Our veterans are holding their own,” Micahnik said. “We also want to use our depth to give everyone experience in meets.”

On the men’s side, Micahnik and senior captain Ben Wieder were both very pleased with the team’s performance, especially the sabre team.

“The men’s sabre team beat a strong North Carolina team 5-4,” Micahnik said. “Sopho-

more George Igoe has come on very strong for sabre.”

“Jon Berkowsky and Sam Monk had great days.” Wieder added. “We also put in a lot of non-starters against NJIT and still went undefeated.”

Although the entire men’s team dominated on Sunday, the Quakers know they will need to improve to have success in their next meet. On Jan. 25, Penn will travel to Princeton for the Princeton Multi-Meet, where it will face tougher competition that includes Duke, Penn State and Drew University.

“We need to work on bout strategy and time management,” Wieder said. “Overall, though, we are in great shape right now.”

Time may be all that the Quakers need to give them that extra boost.

“We need to develop more confidence,” Micahnik said.

“We need to have better game planning, and I think it will come around.”

Micahnik remains optimistic about Penn’s upcoming Ivy League season.

“Our chance to do well in the league is quite good,” Micahnik said. “We will be contenders.”

UA to prioritize relationship with students Scholar still blocked Plans for the semester include a “College from Penn Law post Day” and community service during NSO

By MAGGIE RUSCH Staff Writer rusch@dailypennsylvanian.com

A lt houg h m a ny p e ople look forward to a clean slate at the start of the new year, the Undergraduate Assembly hopes to continue efforts on past projects in the coming semester.

UA Chairman and Wharton and College senior Wilson Tong outlined the goals of the UA for the upcoming semester, explaining that much of last fall’s planning and project proposals will ultimately come into fruition this spring.

According to Tong, the main priority this semester continues to be the relationship between the UA and the student

body — keeping the services provided, projects taken on and major issues addressed relevant and transparent to students.

The projects currently undertaken by UA members are diverse, ranging from providing shopping carts for high rise residents and summer storage for all college house residents to enhancing high school interest through a proposed “College Day” program.

Tong explained that one of the UA’s major goals of the spr ing semester includes working with Housing and Conference Services to extend the period between the final spring exam and the move-out deadline.

“We want students to feel more comfortable, especially those taking the last final,” said Tong.

Another main priority involves adding depth to New Student Orientation. Two proposed components include an optional community service event and other late night activities and programs that would serve as alternatives to the typical NSO party scene.

These plans come on the heels of last semester’s UA endorsement of the InterFraternity Council’s proposal to repeal Penn’s ban on registered fraternity parties during NSO. Other on-going issues the UA plans to work on include improving dining and food on campus, collaborating with the Student Committee on Undergraduate Education to create an online database

of class syllabi and addressing the current high prices of textbooks.

Tong emphasized that the objectives are part of an effort to foster student awareness of and involvement in the UA. “This is the first time in the four years I have been at Penn where the UA has taken such an active and visible role with the student body,” said Tong. “Our goal is to make the UA more relevant to students and to the things that they care about.”

The UA kicks off the new year with this goal in mind, partnering with the Graduate and Professional Student Assembly and the Vice Provost for University Life to sponsor a free shuttle for all students traveling to Washington D.C. for the presidential inauguration ceremony on Jan. 20.

Dorsey added that these statistics should send out a strong message to any criminals who may view the Penn community as an easy target.

DPS’ end-of-year report also showed that total crime in 2008 decreased by eight percent from the previous year.

Although burglaries were up slightly in 2008 compared to 2007, Vice President for Public Safety Maureen Rush attributed this to the ongoing problems of unattended property and poorly secured buildings.

Fraternity and sorority houses need to remain particularly vigilant against this, she said, citing a string of burglaries that occurred in fraternity houses this fall.

The substantial decrease in crime in 2008 did not come as a surprise to many students.

“I can’t say last year felt that different to the one before,” said Engineering junior Jin Chung. “I always feel safe here as long as I stay smart.”

Wharton junior Esther Wang said the high visibility of Penn Police contributes to her feeling safe at Penn.

“Just having such a large uniform presence around campus makes me feel safe,” she said.

“And these statistics show they do a great job.”

A summary of the crime statistics for 2008: Homicides decreased from three in 2007 to two in 2008.

Total robberies dropped from 73 in 2007 to 44 in 2008.

Forcible sex offenses fell from 17 in 2007 to nine in 2008.

Aggravated assaults decreased from 20 in 2007 to ten in 2008.

Simple assaults decreased from 32 in 2007 to 24 in 2008.

Purse snatches dropped from five in 2007 to four in 2008.

Burglary increased from 65 in 2007 to 81 in 2008.

Auto theft fell from nine in 2007 to seven in 2008.

Thefts from cars dropped from 136 in 2007 to 128 in 2008.

Bike thefts rose from 104 in 2007 to 117 in 2008.

Thefts from buildings rose from 222 in 2007 to 236 in 2008.

Other types of theft dropped from 193 in 2007 to 142 in 2008.

Total thefts dropped from 540 in 2007 to 499 in 2008.

Overall crime drops eight percent in ‘08 CRIME from page 1 cent decrease in robberies, a 35 -percent decrease in assaults and a 47-percent decrease in forcible sex offenses.

Chief of Penn Police Mark Dorsey attributed these successes to the high quality and dedicated police work carried out last year by DPS. He also cited effective cooperation with Philadelphia Police as a key factor.

Iranian professor Mehdi Zakerian was invited to teach as a guest scholar last year

By SAYANI MUKHERJEE Staff Writer mukherjee@dailypennsylvanian.com

Although Mehdi Zakerian , a human rights professor at the Islamic Azad University in Tehran, Iran, was invited to teach at the Penn Law School last year, he was unable to come when Iranian aut hor it ies det a i ne d h i m on suspicions of espionage around Aug. 15, according to Amnesty International.

He was released around Oct. 20, but Zakerian remains unable to travel to the United States because authorities have not returned his passport.

Z a k e r i a n’s d et e nt ion sparked an international appeals petition for his release by students, lawyers and human rights advocates. “ T he publ ic outcr y was important in securing [Zakerian’s] release, though it obviously put him under scrutiny,” said Penn Law Dean Michael Fitts. “We are trying to walk the thin line between securing his safety and causing him greater problems.”

Zakerian was able to meet his family in Tehran on Sept.

6 and told them that no formal charges were being filed, although he was suspected of breaching national security and committing espionage.

After his release in October, he returned to his post at IAU, from which he was dismissed without explanation in September 2007.

inclusive and “more contemporary,” and adding that she hopes the new project touches on a wider range of topics.

“It’s a personal narrative,” said Lehman. “It’s the opportunity to share thoughts and feelings with other folks, and provide a common experience among Penn students.”

Zakerian was first invited to Penn Law when he met human rights professor William Burke-White on a trip to Iran last year. When he returned, he spoke to Fitts, and Penn Law invited him to teach as a guest scholar.

“We invited Dr. Zakerian to come to Penn … due to his excellent academic record as one of the leading scholars in international law and human rights from the region,” said Burke-White.

However, Zakerian is unable to leave Iran until after his upcoming trial for the charges against him is completed. “ We cer t a i n ly hope t he I r a n i a n gov e r n me nt w i l l recognize that he is merely a scholar and that he w ill be exonerated of any and all charges against him,” said Burke-White.

“We would gladly welcome him at the law school when is he able to travel.”

Nanda Srikantaiah , a second year law student, said, “It is a travesty that he has been detained and not been allowed to come over and teach. ” As an international human rights activist, she said there is not much they can do from here.

The school is “concerned for [ Za ker ia n’s] wel fa re,” said Fitts.

He added that Zakerian is “not free as every citizen in the world should be.”

Chavez turns to Big Oil The Associated Press

CABIMAS, Venezuela — Squeezed by slumping crude prices, Venezuela is reaching out to the multinational oil companies it once demonized as imperialist profiteers.

Venezuela is soliciting bids from the world’s major oil companies to extract heavy crude from vast deposits in its Orinoco River region. Despite President Hugo Chavez’s criticism of U.S.-style capitalism, it has become clear that stateowned Petroleos de Venezuela SA needs both the cash and expertise of Big Oil. These international oil companies have made windfall profits in recent years, but analysts doubt many will want to invest again given Chavez’s histor y of seizing foreign stakes in Venezuela’s oil.

“When it comes to Venezuela, there’s still going to be a lot of skepticism,” said Greg Priddy, a global oil analyst at the Eurasia Group in Washington D.C. “Chavez is still there and you haven’t had a

change in government.”

Venezuela’s oil wealth funded a bonanza of social spending that has made Chavez a populist hero not only in Venezuela, but across much of Latin America.

But times have changed since Chavez nationalized Venezuela’s last privately run oil fields in Orinoco in May 2007, shouting “Down with the U.S. empire!” as Russianmade fighter jets streaked overhead.

The government took majority control of those projects, siphoning off more of the profits and reducing private companies to minority partners. Exxon Mobil Corp. and ConocoPhillips pulled out altogether, while Chevron Corp. and others begrudgingly accepted the new terms.

Venezuela’s oil industry has stagnated under Chavez. Thousands of veteran employees with critical expertise were fired for backing an oil strike in an attempt to oust Chavez Rachel Jones/AP Photo from office, even as the payroll expanded by more than half Oil pumps are seen in western Zulia state, Venezuela.

Divisions in Gaza make truce harder

CAIRO (AP) — Sealing a lasting peace between Israel and Hamas over Gaza will mean overcoming a dizzying array of splits — the Palestinians are deeply divided politically, Arab countries are feuding and Iran is firing off heated rhetoric at Israel.

Adding to the complexity, multiple mediators are trying to untangle the strands, while the United States has largely stood on the sidelines, with the administration of President George W. Bush in its final days and Presidentelect Barack Obama not yet sworn in.

The difficulty is that so many different parties will have to agree to make any deal work.

On both occasions, Medvedev criticized the government for not doing enough to help industry and business cope with the global financial crisis, which has hit Russia hard.

“The planned measures are being fulfilled slower than we counted on and, slower than the current situation demands,” Medvedev said.

For cardiac arrest patients, outcome depends on the hospital Penn study finds that large, urban and teaching hospitals have best results

By JIN PYUO LEE Staff Writer lee@dailypennsylvanian.com

Cardiac arrest has a 70 to 80 percent mortality rate and affects almost half a million people per year. From CPR to faster emergency services, various methods have been used to lower those numbers.

But according to a new School of Medicine study, other factors need to be taken into

account — research found that the survival rate of cardiac arrest patients also depends on where the patient is taken for care.

The study says there is a variability in cardiac arrest outcomes depending on the teaching status, location and size of the hospital.

According to the study, large, urban and teaching hospitals are crucial for maximizing a

patient’s chances of surviving without any impairment or neurological problems.

The study, which was released earlier this month, was led by Brendan Carr, professor of Emergency Medicine and Epidemiology and associate director of the Division of Emergency Care Policy and Research.

Cardiac arrest and myocardial infarction — also known as heart attack — are not the same thing, Carr stressed. Cardiac arrest is when the heart stops beating. It can stem from

a heart attack, but can also be caused by other factors.

With cardiac arrest, there is a high possibility that patients do not wake up or are seriously impaired.

Senior author Robert Neumar, professor of Emergency Medicine and associate director of Penn’s Center for Resuscitation Science and chair of the Advanced Cardiac Life Support Subcommittee for the American Heart Association, said that in working on the study, he wanted to focus on how to get the heart to restart,

keep patients alive and optimize their chances for a good neurological outcome.

Carr said the study provides insight into how to improve cardiac arrest treatment.

“We did not really concentrate on solutions,” he said.

“Instead, we focused on showing and highlighting the problem.”

First, Carr said, hospitals in the area need to be brought up to speed on how to treat cardiac arrest most effectively. This can be achieved by determining effective ways to dissemi-

The participants then walked, singing, to Houston Hall where they congregated in the Bodek Lounge to listen to famous quotations by King and Presidentelect Barack Obama. Individuals were invited to share personal thoughts or reflections that the holiday inspired.

Committee begins search for provost PROVOST from page 1 mittee includes professors from a number of Penn’s undergraduate and graduate schools, as well as four students: College and Wharton senior and Student Committee on Undergraduate Education Chairman Zach Fuchs, College and Wharton senior and Undergraduate Assembly chairman Wilson Tong, fourth-year Ph.D. student and Graduate and Professional Student Assembly chairman Andrew Rennekamp and masters student and GAPSA vice chairwoman for student life Nicole Thorpe.

With Obama’s impending inauguration, the parallels drawn between the two great men seemed only natural to those who attended the event.

“The event is especially important this year with the inauguration of Barack Obama. This is a great time to highlight America’s progress and hopes for the future,” said president of AKA and College senior Demetria Smith.

One particularly notable aspect of these reflections was the personal pride that each participant took in the accomplishments of both King and Obama, who represent the changes that a single individual can instigate.

Members of the group also seemed affected not only by the events of the past, but also by the heritage that King and his supporters created for black

Penn’s Faculty Senate and Gutmann chose the committee members.

“They tried to get a variety of perspectives — faculty, students, undergrads, grads,” said Tong, who reached out to the UA and UA Steering Committee to encourage students to give input on the search process.

Other committee members include by Barbara Stevens, former vice president and secretary of Penn and Philip Jaeger of the executive search firm Isaacson, Miller.

Gutmann and Robertson added that the committee hopes to have a new provost by the start of the next academic year on July 1. Until then, associate provost for Faculty Affairs Vincent Price will act as interim provost.

“Penn deserves and expects a provost with an enterprising spirit, a demonstrated commitment to academic excellence and intellectual diversity, and a

proven ability to prioritize, plan and implement,” Price wrote in an e-mail.

Penn has placed ads in The Economist and The Chronicle of Higher Education, among other publications, seeking an “eminent, energetic, and judicious academic leader with a distinguished record of scholarly and administrative achievement.”

As chief academic officer, the provost is responsible for coordinating Penn’s academics, research, student life and deans in its 12 schools.

“Provost Daniels was great to undergrads, and I hope the next provost is attuned to undergraduate concerns and has an open door,” said Fuchs.

Some people on the concourse used the occasion to send a message to the President-elect.

Rebecca Subar and her family held signs that read, “U.S. Jews say: End the Siege on Gaza.”

Jefferson nursing sophomore and family member Jonah EtShalom said she hoped that Obama would stop spending “our tax dollars killing people and more saving the lives of people in Philly.”

Obama made two stops on his journey from Philadelphia to Washington, first in Wilmington where he was joined by Vice President-elect Joe Biden and his family, then in Baltimore. In both cities, he spoke at public events.

The other idea is to allow local hospitals to designate a center where patients can be sent when they are suffering from cardiac arrest, Carr said.

He believes this research is a meaningful beginning to providing quicker medical cares for other diseases as well.

“I hope this will serve as an example of treating diseases requiring resource-intensive and emergency care,” Carr added.

Melanie Lei/Notre Dame High School ’08, San Jose, Calif.

Doug ‘Obi Wing’ Petock got disqualified from the 17th Wing Bowl for throwing up. He then proceeded to throw a fit over his disqualification from the event held Jan. 30 at the Wachovia Center.

Wing Bowl too hot to handle Feb. 3 — et’s start out with a couple of riddles.

What has thousands of wings but has never flown once?

If you said ‘ostrich farm’ or ‘penguin colony,’ think again.

Here’s another.

What’s full of booze and sex, is home to the finest and fattest to ever grace Philly and floats?

No, not Charles Barkley’s private yacht.

The answer to both is the Wing Bowl, the annual wingeating contest and ode to debauchery that serves as Philadelphia’s answer to the Super Bowl.

Wing Bowl 17 on Jan. 30 was no exception. Like always, the event displayed its penchant for all things big.

It’s got big appetites, some of which have routinely put away over 200 wings in a halfhour sitting.

It’s got a big following — the Wachovia Center was packed at 6 a.m., with all eyes on the elaborate, parade-style floats.

It’s got big hangovers — parking-lot beer bongs at 2 a.m. have been known to have that effect.

And the ladies have big, um … confidence — the Wingettes, the eaters’ skin-showing cheerleaders (often supplied by strip clubs), along with the brave women in the audience, have been known to supply an intentional nip slip or two throughout the morning.

With the Wing Bowl, all of this comes standard. But this wasn’t your standard Wing Bowl.

In light of the departure of long-time fan favorite Bill “El Wingador” Simmons and reigning champion Joey Chestnut, WIP Sports Radio — the creator and host of Wing Bowl — decided to bring the compe-

L

On The Scene

with David

tition back to its roots, making it an “amateurs only” event.

While the lack of the contest’s old vets was disappointing to some (“I’m a Wingador man,” said former middleweight boxing champion Bernard Hopkins, who had a front row seat), the new rule lent a Philly neighborhood feel to Wing Bowl.

For some competitors, it’s a welcome change.

“We built the event and then the pros came in and stole this stuff from us,” said “Damaging” Doug Canavin, who, despite being the odds-on favorite, failed to qualify for the second round due to an error in wing calculation. “That’s not right.”

With the big dogs held out, the way for a Wing Bowl rookie was paved — Jonathan “Super” Squibb took home the hardware (a crown made of rubber chickens) by inhaling 203 wings in 30 minutes, edging Richard “Not Rich” Razzi of Schwenksville, Pa., who scarfed down 180 wings.

“I went to a lot of all-you-caneat wing places,” said Squibb, whose wiry frame belies his voracious eating habits. “Ate a lot of lettuce, drank a lot of water.

It wasn’t easy, but the ends are better than the means.”

For his efforts, the 23-year old New Jersey native drove home in a brand new MiniCooper — which, incidentally, looked as miniature as ever juxtaposed against the 504-pound frame of “Damag-

Bernstein

ing” Doug.

But at the Wing Bowl, the actual outcome is of little concern or consequence. It’s the audience’s base desires that take precedence. First and foremost, there’s the pure, unbridled lust. And then there’s a more peculiar infatuation — a passion for all things puke.

Wing Bowl’s “You heave, you leave” rule was put into effect several times, much to the delight of the crowd.

With the field pared to ten in the second round, two eaters — Doug “Obi Wing” Petock and Frank “De Fraud” Farrell — couldn’t keep their wings down.

Farrell had been consuming his wings at a steady clip and believed he would have had a legitimate shot at making it to the final two-minute sprint if his stomach hadn’t failed him.

“I was going pretty good,” Farrell said. “But I took a wing and something didn’t feel right.”

If there’s a life lesson to take from Wing Bowl, it’s just that.

You win some, you spew some.

Learn about the

Modern Middle East Studies Major!

I stumbled upon Modern Middle East Studies at the beginning of junior year during my desperate lastminute search for a major. It was the antithesis to everything I had studied up to that point (I came to Penn as a Management and Technology dual degree) and therefore exactly what I needed. I was already taking Arabic and a couple of Middle East-related classes for general requirements or electives, and I realized that MMES was a perfect choice. It is a flexible, diverse, and fascinating major, with opportunities to learn about all aspects of the Middle East through a variety of liberal arts disciplines from amazing faculty. I ended up studying abroad in Jordan, which was an amazing experience, and working at the Middle East Center.

I hope my MMES major will be the first step on the path to a lifelong involvement with Middle East issues.

Audrey Farber University of Pennsylvania Class of ‘09 Candidate for BA in Modern Middle East Studies The Modern Middle Eastern Studies major offered me the chance to take a diverse course load that reflected my passion for the Middle East. In addition to courses on history and politics, I deepened my understanding of the region with courses on language and culture.

I got first-hand experience while studying abroad in Turkey, and now I am well prepared for a career focused on the Middle East. If you love the Middle East, this is the major for you!

Jonathan Friedman University of Pennsylvania Class of ‘09 Candidate for BA in Diplomatic History & Modern Middle East Studies Why I really liked the major: The integrated structure of the major gave me a broad understanding of the religion, culture, language, politics and history of the Middle East. On the other end, my independent study allowed me to focus on my area of interest and study it in depth. While my research seminars allowed me to study topics I would have never though of before such as Non-Jewish African Immigrants in Israel or the Naqshbandi Tradition in Turkey, the courses also exposed me to the most serious academic research that few of my fellow undergraduates have taken part in. Apart from my classes that I really enjoyed, I got to know the staff, professors and even graduate students on a personal level that introduced me to a community of fellow researchers and people interested in the region.
