Duke asks Fuqua partners with Seoul National high court to hear case By KEVIN LEES The Chronicle

The Fuqua School of Business is expanding its Cross-Continent MBA program to include an Asian component through a wide-ranging partnership with Seoul National University. The Asian partnership marks one of the most visible developments in the two-year tenure of Dean Douglas Breeden and represents a continued emphasis on global education at Fuqua.

The University has asked the United States Supreme Court to review a federal appeals court decision on a patent-infringement lawsuit filed by the former director of Duke’s Free

Electron Laser Laboratory. If the high court takes up the case, its decision could be a landmark in patent law, especially in relation to universities and patent-holding researchers. The suit alleges that Duke infringed upon two of plaintiff John Madey’s patents by operating the FEL and using equipment related to Madey’s patents after he was fired as director of the laboratory in 1997. The US. Court of Appeals sent the case back to a North Carolina district court in October, directing the lower court to reexamine the case using a more limited interpretation of the experimental-use exception—a doctrine that allows for patent infringement if See FEL CASE on page-12

THE SOUTH KOREAN FLAG has long flown in the Fuqua School of Business, but Fuqua officials hope to plant their own flag in Korea through a partnership with Seoul National University.

The agreement, for which a letter of intent was signed last week, will include Seoul National’s College of Business Administration in the Cross-Continent program, allow for up to four Seoul MBA students to transfer to Fuqua’s daytime MBA program, permit two Seoul doctoral students to study at Duke and create a role for customized executive education for Korean-based firms through Duke Corporate Education. “It’s going to make the Cross-ContixtjDrogram much stronger and it will make it much more like our [Global Executive MBA] program,” Breeden said, referring to the program aimed at senior executives that covers four different 'tinents. “This will take it more in that flavor and give a more truly global See SEOUL NATIONAL on page 5

Blue Devils avoid Virginia upset Stray bullet grazes employee on WEL

By ROBERT SAMUEL The Chronicle

60 CHARLOTTESVILLE, Alana Beard was 59 sensational Thursday Virginia night against Virgina (5-8, 0-3 in the ACC), scoring a school-record 41 points, including two game-winning free-throws with 0.8 seconds remaining in a 60-59 win over unranked Virginia. No. 1 Duke (14-0,2-0) held possession of the ball for the last 36 seconds of the game, when Virginia deflected the ball out of bounds, forced a jump-ball and three Blue Devil misses before Cavalier Karen Jaeger fouled Beard at half-court while fighting for a loose ball with less than a second remaining. “We feel very, very lucky to escape.... I think we’re escaping with a win here,” Duke Duke

head coach Gail Goestenkors said. Virginia’s students do not return to campus from winter break until next week, but it was Duke who forgot to show up in University Hall until the last moments of the game.

Duke police officials believe a bullet fired into the air from as far away as N.C. 751 landed near the West-Edens Link, leading to the minor injury of an employee. From staff reports A Duke employee was grazed by a stray bullet Thursday afternoon while standing outside the WestEdens Link dormitory, Duke police reported. The victim was standing on the Building D terrace walkway discussing a building project with several other people when a bullet grazed his hand at about 2:45 p.m. “It was nothing life-threatening,” said Maj. Robert Dean of the Duke University Police Department, adding that the employee was transported to Duke Hospital but was expected to be released the same day. Lt. Davis Trimmer said several people reported hearing a popping noise right before the employee was struck.

Inspector finds arms report lacking

Saddam’s science adviser rebuts Blix’s claim; Iraqi newspaper calls for proof By SAMEER YACOUB The Associated Press

BAGHDAD, Iraq President Saddam Hussein’s chief science adviser disputed charges Thursday that Iraq’s arms report was incomplete, and an Iraqi newspaper challenged the United States and Britain to prove allegations that Baghdad is hiding weapons of mass destruction. In New York, chief UN. weapons inspector Hans Blix told reporters at the United Nations that his teams had so far found no “smoking guns” but added Iraq’s weapons report “failed to answer a great many questions.” Mohamed Elßaradei, the head of the International Atomic Energy Agency, also said he does not yet

have enough information to determine whether Iraq is still trying to develop nuclear arms. “We are not certain of Iraq’s [nuclear] capability,” he said. Blix and ElBaradei were briefing the Security Council about initial findings of the inspectors. Blix will issue a formal report to the 15 members on Jan. 27. Amir al-Saadi, the Iraqi presidential adviser, told a visiting South African delegation he could cite specific information in the report, submitted to the United Nations last month, to refute claims that Iraq has not eliminated banned weapons. “People who claim there were gaps, I could tell you right away they have not read it,” al-Saadi said. “There

were no gaps, and I could give you where to find the answers in the specific pages or tables and information.” Referring to the 12,000-page report, al-Saadi said those who found gaps in the information may not be “fully acquainted with our voluminous report or they lost their way.” He referred to questions raised by U.S. and British officials as “off-thecuff remarks by tendentious people.” But he did not specifically mention similar complaints about the report by Blix or Elßaradei. In an editorial Thursday, the newspaper Al-Thawra, published by the ruling Baath Party, complained that

N. Korea withdraws from nuclear treaty By DAVID SANGER and CHRISTOPHER TORCHIA

New York Times News Service

WASHINGTON North Korea said Friday that it was withdrawing from the global nuclear arms control treaty and denounced what it called U.S. aggression, but said it had no plans to develop nuclear weapons. This announcement came as the top North Korean diplomat at the United Nations met Thursday night in Santa Fe with the governor of New Mexico, Bill Richardson, in an unexpected initiative by the North to open communications about its nuclear confrontation with Washington. The White House said the meeting came at the initiative of the North Koreans, not the United States, and that Richardson was authorized only to deliver the same message that the administration has given in public;

that there will be no negotiations until the North halts its two nuclear projects. The White House appeared to increase its demands Thursday night, emphasizing that, even if talks resumed, it would not be enough for North Korea to simply stop its parallel efforts to enrich uranium and produce plutonium. “The next step is for North Korea to completely dismantle its nuclear weapons program in a visible and verifiable manner” said Sean McCormack, the spokesperson for the National Security Council. He emphasized that the nuclear facilities at Yongbyon, frozen under a 1994 agreement with the Clinton administration, would have to be taken apart, though he declined to specify a timetable for that action. Richardson, a Democrat, has traveled to North Korea and See TREATY on page 11

Privacy protected online, OIT says By KELLY ROHRS The Chronicle

With the advent of a new computer registration process, Office of Information Technology personnel can connect computers with their student owners in seconds, but concerns that this violates student privacy are unnecessary, officials said. Computer registration, which began this semester in order to allow OIT to alert students more quickly when their computers were hacked, does not give anyone new access to student computers. “Technically this would make it easier for someone to say, ‘Look, there is traffic going to a pornography website. Let’s find out who it is,’” said University Information Technology Security Officer Chris Cramer. He added, however, that the University does not have the capability to see students’ Internet histories because the network does not have room to store that information. Only a half dozen people have access to the registration information. “The registration policy is in place not so that [administrators] can sit there to monitor when you’re talking to your friends,” said sophomore Eileen Kuo, co-director of internal computing for Duke Student Government. “Students shouldn’t worry about side effects; they should view it as a measure of security.” All OIT employees and Arts and Sciences system administrators who might have access to potentially sensitive student files also sign a confidentiality agreement that prevents them from viewing any confidential information not necessary to do their jobs. Confidential information, defined as “all non-public information that can be personally associated with an individual” includes e-mail and web history. “If someone violates the confidentiality agreement, they will quickly find themselves looking for a new job,” said Cramer. Students are protected by a privacy policy that allows administrators to view confidential information only if they have evidence of wrongdoing. “We do not look for illegal activities on our network,” Cramer said. “If we are informed of them or required to assist [law enforcement], we do so.” Although the guidelines for faculty and employee Internet use are ambiguous, the University does not restrict which websites students can visit. Students can use the University network for any act that does not violate University policies or laws.

Friends, family remember caring, devoted pathologist Professor emeritus worked with community By DAVE INGRAM The Chronicle

Dr. Kenneth Schneider, a professor emeritus of clinical pathology, an involved community member and a beloved father and husband, died last Saturday following an extended illness. He was 69. From leading various medical associations to grassroots-level organizing

for blood donation, Schneider leaves behind a legacy of devotion to quality

health care and to the medical profession, friends and fam-

members

said this week They described Dr. Kenneth Schneider him as an unselfish person who always thought of others before himself. “He just enjoyed helping others,” said Della Sue Schneider Martin, Schneider’s daughter. “That’s kind of why he became a professor and a doctor in the first place, to help other people.” Schneider came to Duke in 1976 as director of hospital laboratories and professor of pathology. The American Society of Clinical Pathologists gave him a Distinguished Service Award in 1978 and the Commissioner’s Medal in 1988. He was the co-recipient of the 1980 Albert and Mary Lasker Award for his work with the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute’s Hypertension Detection and Follow-up Program. Beyond his career at Duke, however, those who knew Schneider cited his work in the community and in professional associations as one of his most notable contributions. He worked with the ASCP, the American Association of

Blood Banks, the Illinois Public Health Department, the American Hospital Association and the Durham and Charlotte chapters of the American Red Cross. An avid fan of college basketball, Schneider was a member of the Iron Dukes and during the 1980s, was one of the original chiefs of the crews that drug-test NCAA athletes. “[Being a crew chief] really bridged the two, his professional life and his

hobbies,” Martin said.

Christopher Kennedy, associate director of athletics at Duke, remembered Schneider as instrumental in establishing Duke’s own drug-testing policies in the mid-1980s. “We didn’t have a testing program when we first set up our drug policy, and he set up the protocol for that,” Kennedy said. Before coming to Duke’s Medical Center, Schneider was a professor at Northwestern University Medical Center, where he earlier had earned 8.5., M.S. and M.D. degrees. He is survived by his wife, Nancy Dankes Schneider; two brothers, Paul Schneider of Gumming, Ga. and Jack Schneider of Fallbrook, Calif.; his daughter, Della Sue Schneider Martin and her husband, Michael Jay Martin of Cary; his son Dale Edward Schneider and his wife Kathleen Schneider of Durham; and another son, Dwight Derold Schneider of New York City. Contributions in his memory may be made to the American Diabetes Association, the Durham Chapter of the American Red Cross, Northwestern University or the Duke University Athletics Association. Donating a pint of blood is also suggested. A memorial service will be held at Hall-Wynne Funeral Chapel at 2 p.m. Sunday, Jan. 19.

Two Duke University Press books shared the Katherine Singer Kovacs Prize, which honors an outstanding scholarly book published in English in the field of Latin American and Spanish literatures and cultures: Georgina Dopico Black’s Perfect Wives, Other Women: Adultery and Inquisition in Early Modern Spain (2000) and Francine Masiello’s The Art of Transition: Latin American Culture and Neoliberal Crisis (2001).

Seoul National offers Duke strong business partner By KEVIN LEES The Chronicle

So what kind of a partner has the Fuqua School ofBusiness found in Seoul

National University? “It was kind of in the plans for some time now to eventually look for another campus in another part of the world,” said Daniel Nagy, assistant dean at Fuqua and director of MBA programs. “When the offer came from Seoul National, which is by all accounts one of the best schools in all ofAsia, this made more sense than going it alone.” Seoul National is the oldest modern university in South Korea, established in 1946. AsiaWeek, in 2000, rated the university the fourth-best in Asia and

its College of Business Management the 20th-best (the MBA program ranked sixth, however, in academic reputation). The university includes 15 other colleges and four graduate schools across three campuses. Seoul National, with a student enrollment of about 32,000 which includes 23,000 undergraduates —has a faculty of 1,563 professors. Although enhancing Duke’s international reputation is among the school and the University’s top strategic goals, officials try to develop key partnerships only with schools they are convinced have the academic credentials to compare favorably with Duke’s. “Seoul National is better than us in —

When the business school launched its Frankfurt, Germany campus in 1999, it did so on its own, without a partner university in Europe. The 20-month Cross-Continent MBA program, which Fuqua also initiated in 1999, attracts students who attend eight weekly sessions in both Durham and in Frankfurt, Germany, at Fuqua’s European campus. Students, who remain in their jobs during the program, fulfill the rest of the course of study through distance learning via the Internet. Currently, two sections ofthe program are based in Durham and on the Frankfurt campus, which admits students from Germany and the rest of Europe. Breeden said the partnership will create another section for 2003 that will admit about 30 to 35 Asian students and that starting for next year’s classes, will in-

Furthermore, Sheppard added that if Duke CE has a base in Asia, it can not only attract Korean clients of its own but become more attractive to U.S. and other clients with Asian interests. “We have a set of clients who need the depth and expertise in Asian-related issues, so we’ve been looking

We have clients located in Asia and so we need a place to do that.” Sheppard added that the new revenue from Asia could boost the company’s by between 5 to 10 percent. A release on the new partnership added that discussions are under way concerning expansion of the Seoul-based program into a joint- or dual-degree program, but noted that administrators had not yet reached an agreement. Breeden did not rule out the possibility of further expansion in the future, and pointed to ongoing discussions with Peking University in China. He cautioned, however, that any major additional international expansion would not come this year, or likely even next year. Next week, however, Breeden is traveling to Latin America—the first such trip for a Fuqua dean, he said. “But I think this is all for right now,” he said. “We feel like we’re really getting things going in Asia.

N.C. NEWS THIS WEEK From staff and wire reports

State will help foot bill for storm damage North Carolina will set aside $24 million to help clean up damage caused by last month’s ice storm, with a chunk of the money going to local governments, Gov. Mike Easley announced Thursday. The Dec. 4 storm pelted central parts of North Carolina with ice, snow and freezing rain, leaving 1.3 million homes and businesses without power. Some people were without power for 10 days or more. Total cleanup and response costs have been estimated at $97 million. The federal government has agreed to pick up 75 percent ofthat cost, or $73 million, and Easley’s announcement means that local governments should see the rest of their costs covered. Easley said the $24 million would most likely come from state agencies reverting additional money from their

budgets. Poor tax collections have left the state government in a budget crisis, and more agency cuts are expected in the next fiscal year. “We don’t have any rainy day fund [reserves! right now,” Easley said. The governor said damage assessment is continuing and that the cleanup costs could still rise.

It is fair to say the Marines and sailors aboard Camp Lejeune are leaning forward.” More than 1,000 Marines already have been sent to various places in the Gulf region, including a 500-person task force off the coast ofnortheastern Africa commanded by a major general. A larger deployment is anticipated in the near future. Marines from Camp Lejeune were sent to Kuwait and Saudi Arabia during Operation Desert Storm in 1991’s GulfWar.

Ahead of elections, Sharon defends own integrity By JOHN KIFNER

New York Times News Service

Prime Minister Ariel Sharon, his JERUSALEM once almost certain re-election thrown into the balance by corruption charges, went on the counterattack

Thursday night, but his feisty, nationally televised news conference was abruptly yanked off the air. As campaigning heats up for the Jan. 28 elections, Sharon and his Likud party have been jolted by accusations first of party corruption and now that Sharon committed bribery, fraud and breach of trust by taking a private loan to repay a political contribution.

But on Thursday night, when Sharon took to the airwaves to defend himself, he was cut off after it was determined he was using the broadcast time illegally to spread “election propaganda” in the month before the vote. The loan in question, $ 1.5-million from a South African businessman, Cyril Kern, was reportedly used to repay a political contribution by an American company called Annex Research. Under Israeli law, foreigners are not allowed to contribute to election campaigns, making both transactions appear illicit. Th§ police have opened an investigation and asked

for the cooperation of the South African authorities. In the gathering intrigue, State Attorney General Elyakim Rubinstein—whom Sharon’s campaign strategists accuse of having a hand in leaking details of the investigation to the Haaretz daily this week—has also announced that a team is being put together to investigate the source of the leak. Sharon’s tough tactics against the Palestinians had seemed likely to ensure his smooth re-election against a Labor Party leader, Amram Mitzna, who advocates See SHARON on page 8

Families identify Turkish jetliner crash victims By SELCAN HACAOGLU The Associated Press

DIYARBAKIR, Turkey Families claimed the bodies of some of the 75 people killed when a Turkish Airlines jetliner crashed short of a fog-covered runway in southeastern Turkey, and the prime minister ruled out sabotage Thursday. The victims included an American, but a U.S. Embassy spokesperson was not able to release the person’s name or hometown. FourBritons also were killed in the crash, the British Embassy said. Five survivors aboard the flight from Istanbul were hospitalized after the plane came down Wednesday at the airport in Diyarbakir. Prime Minister Abdullah Gul dismissed the possibility of a terror attack and said the weather was likely to blame. Fog had been a problem in the area in recent days and forced the cancellation of flights to the southeastern cities of Gaziantep and Sanliurfa from Istanbul Thursday. “It’s clear that it was an accident. The pilot couldn’t reach the runway because of fog,” Gul said after meeting with the families of the victims in Diyarbakir. “It’s a miracle five people came out alive. The plane was tom apart.” Two Turkish warplanes also collided in heavy fog in nearby Malatya province Thursday, the military said. The pilots and navigators of the two F-4 jets were seen parachuting to the ground, but none of the four aviators survived. One of the survivors from the Turkish airliner, Aliye 11, a 48-year-old homemaker, said she was flying to Diyarbakir for the funeral of an aunt.

“A strong explosion rocked the plane and everyone and everything turned into balls of fire,” she said. II struggled to unbuckle her seat belt. “I was screaming, T can’t unbuckle it, I can’t unbuckle it,’ but nobody could hear me. They were all screaming,” she said. II managed to unfasten her belt, falling out of the plane into a large pile of dry, cut grass. “It was a miracle,” she said, speaking from her hospital bed where she is recovering from a broken shoulder. Her hair and her eyebrows were burned. Turkish newspapers reported that Diyarbakir airport lacked an instrument landing system to help pilots land in bad weather. Newspapers said Turkey’s military, which owns the airport, opposed the system for unspecified security reasons. “There shouldn’t be flights to airports with no ILS system,” said Faik Akin, chief public relations officer of Turkish Airlines. Investigators have recovered both the flight data and cockpit voice recorders, Deputy Prime Minister Abdullatif Sener said. “Measures will be taken so that an event like this won’t happen again,” Prime Minister Gul said. The crash left an 800-yard swath of twisted metal and scattered luggage. The shape of the aircraft was barely discernible in the wreckage. Families tried to identify the badly charred remains of passengers laid out at a nearby basketball court. Gul said 45 of the victims had been identified. Relatives waited outside several

But only three people were sent to us,” said Aziz Aydinalt, chief physician at a Diyarbakir hospital, adding that two others were sent to a military hospital. Three small children were believed to be among the dead. About 400 soldiers combed the area near the crash site for other survivors who might have been thrown from the plane.

Transportation board blames tail assembly in crash Officials send team of investigators to examine Raytheon facility where maintenance occurred By TIM WHITMIRE The Associated Press

CHARLOTTE Investigators looking for the cause of a plane crash that killed 21 people said Thursday that the tail assembly controlling the plane’s lift was behaving erratically during the 37 seconds the doomed flight was in the air. Information from the flight data recorder shows US Airways Express Flight 5481 took off from the Charlotte airport with its nose up 7 degrees, which is normal. But the pitch increased sharply, to 52 degrees, by the time the plane reached 1,200 feet. It soon rolled to the right and headed toward the ground, where it clipped a hangar and crashed in flames. “Something occurred to drive that

pitch angle to 52 degrees,” said John Goglia, a National Transportation Safety Board member. “That is abnormal.” The data recorder also shows the elevator control on the tail of the Beech 1900 “moving up and down a lot” on all eight flights it took following routine

maintenance Monday night, Goglia said. The elevator is a key control of the plane’s pitch. The up-and-down motion may not have influenced the seven flights the plane made Tuesday, Goglia said, if the plane was not loaded to capacity. The plane was at nearly full weight Wednesday. A team of NTSB investigators has been sent to a facility in Ceredo, W.Va., where the maintenance was done.

SHARON from page 6 direct negotiations with the Palestinians. Likud leaders who gathered in an emergency meeting on Wednesday night were shocked by word of a sharp fall in the polls, with a Haaretz poll indicating that Likud would get 27 seats in the election while Labor would win 24. On Thursday afternoon, the Prime Minister’s office announced he would give a news conference to address the charges against him. Sharon was barely warming to his task, thumping the podium about 10 minutes into his speech, when the chairman of the Central Elections Committee, Mishael

Cheshin, a Supreme Court Justice, decided that he was in violation of a law preventing the broadcast of “election propaganda” in the month before a vote. In quick succession, Israel’s three television stations, along with state and army radio, cut off the sound, with announcers saying they had been ordered to do so. It was the first time that an Israeli prime minister’s speech had been cut off the air, the Israeli radio reported.

For all his popularity in taking tough measures against the Palestinians during the uprising of the last 27 months, Sharon has been vulnerable on other issues. He was forced to call the January election early after he failed to secure support for an austerity budget.

Sharon went on the offensive Thursday night, as he has so often throughout his military career in all Israel’s wars, accusing Mitzna of“all sorts of shady links to contractors” and calling the charges against him a “despicable slander” and an attempt “to seize power

through lies.” The prime minister was somewhat contradictory, at first saying that he had told police that everything to do with his financial arrangements was legal, then professing ignorance about some of the details. “Have you gone crazy? Have you gone mad?” listeners heard Sharon growling in exasperated tones before

the broadcast was cut off. “People tell tales, they tell lies, all kinds of gossip.”

IRAQ from page 2 the Americans and British were threatening war to disarm Iraq before UN. arms experts have made their first substantial inspections report. “The inspectors are still in Iraq, their work is not over yet. So we challenge the rulers of Washington and London to present any proof verifying their allegations,” the editorial said. Referring to Washington and London as an “axis of mediocrity” the newspaper said the two governments would have already made public their evidence against Iraq if they had any. In London, however, the Daily Telegraph newspaper reported Thursday

that Britain is pressing the United States for any war to be delayed for several months to give weapons inspectors more time to gather evidence against Saddam. The newspaper said senior British officials believe there is no clear legal case for military action

against Baghdad. Prime Minister Tony Blair’s office refused to comment on The Daily Telegraph report. However, Blair said Thursday that the inspectors must be given the time and space to do their job and that the Jan. 27 date for Blix’s formal report is not a deadline. “We are in the middle of a process. The U.N. inspectors have just, at the beginning ofthe year, got their full complement of inspectors there,” Blair told ministers, according to his official spokesperson, who briefed reporters on condition of anonymity. Iraqi Vice President Taha Yassin Ramadan reissued complaints Thursday that the U.N. inspectors were under US. pressure to obtain information ex-

ceeding their mandate. Speaking to Middle East Broadcasting Center, a Saudi-owned satellite TV station, Ramadan said the inspectors had asked Iraqi scientists about their salaries, where they graduated and the number of workers employed in their facilities. Ramadan pledged that Iraq would cooperate fully with the inspectors, but said, “In order that the work is accomplished in the nearest time we hope that those teams can ignore the U.S. pressure and conduct their work in a professional manner.” Charges that the inspectors were involved in espionage have been made by Saddam and members of the Iraqi leadership over the past few days. The United Nations denies the charge and says it had not received any official Iraqi complaints about the work of the inspectors. In Baghdad, inspectors visited six sites Thursday, according to Information Ministry officials. The visits included return inspections to two mili-

tary

installations—the

al-Harith

missile maintenance workshop north of Baghdad and the al-Rafah facility west of the capital that specializes in checking missile engines. Inspectors also went to the al-Raya company, which conducts research for metal and plastic industries north of Baghdad, the al-Meelad company for electronic research south of the capital and a veterinary laboratory inside the city. They also visited a company that manufactures household appliances northeast of Baghdad. A visit to an unidentified site in western Iraq was aborted after three helicopters carrying inspectors had to return to Baghdad because of bad weather, according to reporters and government officials.

THE WEST-EDENS LINK WALKWAY normally does not see much gunfire, but a stray bullet fell on an employee Thursday, sending him to the Hospital.

STRAY BULLET.™page 1 randomly up in the air from Duke University Road or the N.C. 751 area and landed next to the dorm, he noted. Police recovered a bullet at the scene. “It appears that it was from a distance, but how far we don’t know,” Dean said. “It’s something that came down onto the awning and through the canvas and just broke the skin.” There were conflicting reports Thursday night as to whether the em-

ployee was a construction worker or an employee in the architect’s office. Police searched the area, but did not locate anyone with a gun. An investigation into the incident is continuing. The Durham Police Department did not report any gun firings around the time of the incident, Dean said. He added that he could not recall a similar incident ever occurring before on Duke’s campus. Duke police asks anyone with information about the shooting to call the department at 684-2444.

cials were somewhat puzzled by the North’s choice of Richardson as a possible go-between. Richardson, a former congressman, served as President Bill Clinton’s ambassador to the United Nations. In 1994 he went to North Korea to negotiate the release of an American pilot shot down over North Korea. In 1996, when Clinton and Kim Young-sam, the South Korean president at the time, proposed talks involving North and South Korea, China and the United States, Richardson traveled to North Korea to urge the

In the past, Condoleezza Rice, the national security adviser, has criticized the accord, and others have suggested that its weaknesses were made evident last month when the North Koreans, reacting to a cut-off of oil by the United States and its allies, ejected international inspectors living at the nuclear facilities and removed seals from the frozen nuclear operations, “We want to see the whole facility taken apart in pieces,” one senior official said Thursday night. Secretary of State Colin Powell, who has been leading a faction within President George W. Bush’s administration to open channels of communication with North Korea, personally approved travel to New Mexico for Han Song Ryol, the North Korean ambassador

government to accept the offer. While Richardson is familiar with the North Koreans, he has virtually no connections to the Bush administration. One senior administration official characterized the North’s diplomatic approach as “a bit bizarre, but perhaps more constructive than building nukes.” Experts on Asia in the State Department said they had minimal expectations for the meetings, which were supposed to start with a dinner Thursday night and continue Friday morning. The White House said Richardson was not authorized to negotiate on the administration’s behalf, but merely to state its position. “The only message we expect is what America’s position is: that we are ready to talk and that we will not negotiate,” Ari Fleischer, the White House spokesper-

DSO members encourage their friends to support them at concerts, exposing these novices to the world of symphony and the arts. “[The DSO] raises the cultural scene in the University,” Loui added. “It’s the biggest student musical organization on campus, and getting 79 people involved in one project is a great thing.” DSO’s other members share Loui’s enthusiasm. “We’re definitely improving and it’s an exciting time to be a member,” said violinist lan Han, a sophomore.

You should not see this as anything beyond that.” In an administration that is deeply divided about how to handle North Korea—whether to isolate it, negotiate with it or offer a new package of economic incentives if the country first returns to the nuclear status quo—Richardson’s involvement was not entirely welcomed at the White House. But one participant in the internal debates in the administration said that “maybe this will break something loose, and let us get out of the macho spiral where we cut off their oil, and they stoke up the nuclear facilities.” Despite Richardson’s efforts at dialogue, the North Korean treaty withdrawal is likely to heighten tension over North Korea’s nuclear development as the United States and its allies seek a diplomatic solution to the problem. “We can no longer remain bound to the NPT, allowing the country’s security and the dignity of our nation to be infringed upon,” the North Korean government said in a statement carried on KCNA, its official news agency. “Though we pull out of the we have no intention of producing nuclear weapons and our nuclear activities at this stage will be confined only to peaceful purposes such as the production of electricity” KCNA said.

PEL CASE from page 1 relevant research is used, in the words of a previous court decision, “for amusement, to satisfy idle curiosity or for strictly philosophical inquiry.” What is unclear, however, is whether academic research with no commercial applications falls under this definition. When the case first went to district court in 2001, the University won, arguing that its use of Madey’s equip-

ment fell under the experimental-use exception and was exempt from patent laws because the research was conducted under a government research grant. Madey appealed, arguing that since the University “is in the business of obtaining grants and developing possible commercial applications for the fruits of its academic research,” it should not be exempted. In remanding the case, the appeals court agreed with Madey that the district court incorrectly shifted to him the burden to prove Duke's use of the equipment did not fall under the experimental-use exception when it was the University's responsibility to show that its use fell under the doctrine. Since the October ruling, the case has received considerable national attention. The Association of American Medical Colleges has strongly backed Duke, arguing that new rules and procedures would disrupt academic research. But some patent lawyers counter that universities should follow patent laws when dealing with their researchers, especially if the schools are profiting financially. Now, the University would like the nation’s highest court to consider the

creativity would be stifled if investigators are required to conduct patent searches every time they launch a new line of experimentation,” School of Medicine Dean Sandy Williams said in a statement.

Madey, however, remained confident that the University should not be allowed to use his equipment and a procedure still used to operate the laser, both of which are patented.

“I am a bit surprised that the legal basis for the suit has been questioned,” Madey wrote in an e-mail from the University of Hawaii-Manua, where he currently runs another free electron laboratory.

“The right of United States citizens to receive patents to protect their intellectual property is guaranteed in the United States Constitution, and I find it hard to understand why Duke’s administration and lawyers believe that this provision of the Constitution

The device uses moving electrons to produce beams of extremely high radiation that can be tuned precisely for different tasks. Currently, University scientists use the laser to try to improve brain surgery and study infrared photo chemistry, among other research. The Associated Press contributed to

Beard’s heroics stunning

Undefeateds clash Sunday night Wake Forest has not left Cameron victorious since 1997 season By MIKE COREY The Chronicle

According to Wake Forest head coach Skip Prosser, January 12 has been .circled on the Demon Deacon’s calendar for quite some time. Sometimes such forward thinking can be detrimental to a team’s performance, though this has not been the case with the undefeated Demon Deacons. Explaining how he’s been able to corral the focus of his players in the ten games preceding the showdown with No. 1 Duke (10-0) Sunday night at 6:30 p.m. at Cameron Indoor Stadium, Prosser compared the Blue Devils with a blonde bombshell. “It’s like in those World War II flicks when the guy is waiting for the girl to get off the train, and he’s all excited and he starts running to the blonde and he trips over the curb,” Prosser said. “We told [our team] not to worry about the blonde, let’s just take care of the curb.” The hype surrounding Sunday’s contest may prove a more deterring factor than any woman—or team—could ever muster. The winner of Sunday’s contest will have the distinction of being the nation’s only undefeated Division I basketball team. The prospects for Wake Forest, who Duke has beaten 13 consecutive times, are relatively good. Prosser has done a

Alana Beard’s record-setting 41point performance was remarkable and inspiring as the Blue Devils were able to remain undefeated. CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va. Broken records, upsets, and final seconds that seem to last forever: These are what glue us to our television sets nervously munching on chips and dip and clamoring at referees in the television across the room. Thursday night’s game against Virginia was one of those contests that makes fans go crazy in jubilation, only to break them back down to tears—and back again—all in an eighth of a second.

Alana Beard made the first and last baskets of the game and just about all the one’s in between. Her record breaking performance with a

points proved what

makes or breaks a team: Despite the

vulnerability of Duke’s offense and the team’s exploitable weaknesses, its game is still unbeatable. As head coach Gail Goestenkors commented earlier this week, Virginia is a “dangerous” team because of their indisputable amount of raw talent. What had deterred them up until Thursday night was their inability to come together as a team. Perhaps with the lack of pressure in facing one of Game commentary

the most outstanding basketball teams in the country, Virginia was able to realize their potential by playing relaxed, team-oriented basketball. Virginia’s head coach, Debbie Ryan, described them as “a bunch of scrappy players with absolutely nothing to lose.” As such, they roared into the first half doubling the number of field goals of the unsuspecting and, perhaps overly confi-

Sacramento tears down DUKE WAKE FOREST Nets in 36-point thrashing From staff reports The EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. Sacramento Kings considered it a measuring stick game. By the time it ended, they were standing a whole lot taller than the New Jersey Nets. The second-best team in the West

humiliated the top team in the East, going on a 38-10 run bridging the first and second quarters in a 118-82 victory Thursday night that prevented the Nets from matching the longest winning streak in franchise history—ll games. It was the first home loss for the Nets since Nov. 16, when the West’s other powerhouse—the Dallas Mavericks —

beat them by eight. That game at least was competitive, a quality this game lacked for a majority ofits 48 minutes as the Kangs built a 42-point lead. “I’m stunned. I didn’t expect to lose by 36 points,” Nets coach Byron Scott said. “Not a good time to play one of your worst games.” Peja Stojakovic scored 24 points, Mike Bibby added 23 and Chris Webber had 19 points and 11 rebounds for the Kings, who won their fourth in a row to improve to 27-9. The Kings took the Nets out of their running game, were the aggressors on both ends of the court and kept New Jersey from making any kind of a run after taking a big lead by the end of the first quarter. “We all came in focused. We know they’re the best in the East, and we wanted to see how we measure up

against them,” Webber said. “Yes, it was definitely a statement game, but at the same time I remember last year winning a lot of statement games and losing Game 7 (of the Western

Conference finals).” Jason Kidd was outplayed by Bibby, finishing with 10points on 5-for-17 shooting including 0-for-4 from 3-point range. Lucious Harris and Jason Collins scored 11 apiece for the Nets, whose home winning streak was snapped at 13. “We’re here to break it,” Bibby said

defense, Sheana Mosch fouled Tonya Blue, who connected on both of her pressure packed free-throws. “They were facing some adversity with two of their better players sitting out for the game, and I think everyone else just stepped up.” Goestenkors said “They reminded me of us last year when we came in here with only eight players.” True to form, Beard responded by scoring again, but the Cavaliers matched her score with a driving layup. Beard briefly returned to earth by missing a shot, but the miss was rebounded by Mosch who was fouled. She nailed a pair of clutch tries at the charity stripe, again shaving Virginia’s lead to one. Beard then fouled Virginia’s Jocelyn Logan-Friend on the ensuing possession, and the sophomore made both of her free-throw attempts. Beard retaliated by draining two foul shots ofher own. Then, Beard stole a pass from GrantFairley to Anna Crosswhite and took the ball coast-to-coast and drained a pull-up jumpshot from the free-throw line to give Duke a 58-57 lead with with just 50 seconds remaining. Grant-Fairley, unfazed by Beard’s greatness, quickly countered with a powerful drive that ended in an easy lay-up with 36 seconds to go. Then it got exciting. After a Duke time-out to call a play for Beard, Harding’s pass to Beard was deflected out-of-bounds. She received the ball again after the Blue Devils inbounded, but was immediately double-teamed. Beard passed the ball inside to Matyasovsky, who missed from the inside. Beard grabbed the rebound and missed a shot of her own. Several players fought viciously for the rebound, which ended up in a jump ball with the possession arrow pointing Duke’s way. After another timeout, theBlue Devils set up another play for Beard, who this .

Beard hustled to grab the ball, and in the process was questionably fouled by Jaeger. Beard calmly went to the line, sunk two foul shots and won the game. “I think it was a foul, to be honest with you, but it was far away from the

basket,” Goestenkors said

Despite the end-of-the game heroics, Duke felt the game was a disappointment. The Blue Devils played perhaps their worst half of the season, as they shot only 23.1 percent in the first half. “We didn’t play with the confidence that we normally do,” Goestenkors said.

WAKE from page 13 remarkable job thus far directing his team through the likes of Wisconsin and St. John’s, despite having seven freshmen and sophomores in the team’s rotation. Eric Williams, a 6-foot-9, 270-pound freshman center, has been the most impressive underclassmen for Prosser. In addition to his unusual strength and size, Williams has a soft touch that allows him to utilize an effective jumphook and upand-under move. He is averaging 12 points and seven rebounds per game. Wake Forest’s frontcourt also includes sophomore Vytas Danelius, who leads the Deacons in rebounds at 8.1 per game while scoring 12.0 points each contest.

The Demon Deacon backcourt can score as well, as both sophomore Taron Downey and freshman Justin Gray average just over 10 points per game. Wake Forest’s key player, however, is All-America candidate Josh Howard. The senior forward has progressed quickly after missing the first three weeks of practice this season due to injury. He is currently averaging 16 points, eight boards, 2.5 steals and 1.5 blocks per game. Dahntay Jones will bear the onus of slowing Howard’s offensive production, in what will be an entertaining duel

The Chronicle

between two of the more athletic basketball players in the nation. Another key to the game will be rebounding, the Demon Deacons’ forte this season. They have outrebounded opponents by an average of 14.2 boards per game. Daniel Ewing, Chris Duhon, J.J. Redick and Sean Dockery will be relied upon to outperform and stymie Wake Forest’s young guards in a game thatwill be closely watched across the country. “There’s going to be a lot of talk about it, two undefeated teams,” Ewing said. “And the fact that we’re in the ACC is going to make it real intense.” Regardless, Prosser believes his team will be fired up and focused for the matchup of undefeateds Sunday, and expects to use the result of the game as a barometer of where his team stands. “It will be the ultimate litmus test to this point,” Prosser said. “So much of the game on Sunday will be determined on Thursday, Friday and Saturday at practice. We must be focused.” That Wake Forest has not won at Cameron Indoor Stadium since 1997 is indicative of one last advantage Duke holds—the fans. “It’s a real difficult place to play, and you have to bring your ‘A’ game,” Downey said. “They’re going to get in us, and we have to be ready to respond.”

the marquee games on the schedule this year.” Deng leads a talented group of players for Blair Academy, as they will come into Saturday’s game boasting an impressive 12-1 record. Their first loss came January Bth against St. Patrick’s (New Jersey) in a 7068 nailbiter, a setback that should have Deng and his colleagues fired up for Saturday. That Deng could play better is scary, considering he poured in 31 points in the loss, three of which came with 8 seconds to play and pulled his team to within one point of the nation’s fourth-ranked basketball team. Blair Academy has failed to crack USA Today’s national poll, but there is no arguing their potential because in addition to Deng, Blair Academy boasts another star in Illinois-bound Charlie Villanueva. Their opponent Saturday, Millbrook High out of Raleigh, is 11-1 thanks in large part to future Demon Deacon, Cameron Stanley. Mantegna is unconcerned with the competition, however, asserting his confidence that his team will be ready to outperform Millbrook. “I know they’re very athletic,” Mantegna said. “We’re one of the top-ranked teams in the country as well, so we don’t adjust too much to what other teams bring to the floor, we try to make them adjust to us.” Millbrook will certainly have to adjust to Deng when tip-off arrives at 6:30 p.m. The best high school player that will enroll in college this fall, Deng is as talented and hard-working as they come, and is blessed with size, speed, strength and plentiful ability. “He’s a very versatile player,” Mantegna said. “We look to him to get the ball up the court, to guard the other team’s best guy—it’s almost silly how much we ask the kid to do.” Only Lebron James is considered a better prep prospect, and he is almost certain to forego his college career to be the No. 1 pick in the NBA draftthis summer. The nightcap is set to begin at 8:00 p.m., and will feature Humphries, a 6-foot-9 power player that has dramatically improved his inside and outside skills over the past year. He will lead his team, ranked as high as No. 10 in the national polls this season, against St. Anthony’s (N.J.), the nation’s No. 25 team and the alma mater of Duke All-American, Bobby Hurley. The opening game, tipping off at 5:00 p.m., pits the nation’s eleventh-ranked team, Montrose Christian (Md.), against East Chapel Hill. Montrose Christian is led by N.C. State-recruit Linas Kleiza. This may be Kleiza’s last chance to leave Cameron with a victory, and the first of many cherished memories for Deng and Humphries. “The number one reason I’m coming to Duke is because of the family atmosphere,” Deng said recently. “I’m a Dukie now.”

Restricted discourse Recently,

Christian groups on several college campuses have come under fire for discrimination for requiring that their

leaders share their religious beliefs. That is, universities such

as Rutgers, the University ofNorth Carolina at Chapel Hill and Harvard have objected to the fact that Christian groups demand Christian leaders, something that the universities say violates their

non-discrimination policies. Since these policies prevent discrimination based upon religion, the universities argue that a Christian group requiring that its leaders be Christian is tantamount to religious discrimination and hence prohibited. Such an argument and the universities’ hyper-sensitive, politically-correct outrage are ridiculous. Although discrimination is usually wrong, this general principle should not prevent religious groups from having leaders who are co-religionists. It makes sense that Christians should not lead Buddist groups, atheists should not lead Jewish groups and Muslims should not lead Hindi groups. The purpose of most religious groups is to promote their own beliefs, and for a leader to effectively promote, celebrate or practice the beliefs that form the foundation of a religious group, that leader must believe in the religion. Thus, it is nonsensical for a university to argue that a religious group should not require that its leaders also believe in the same religion: If the group’s leaders did not believe in the same religion, they could not possibly be effective leaders. Of course, private individuals have the right to decide with whom they will associate, and private clubs or groups, generally have the right to discriminate against whatever groups they wish. However, in the case of these Christian organizations, they receive funding from the university. Thus, the question is not whether Christian organizations have a right to discriminate against other religions in general, but whether on-campus Christians groups receiving university funding may discriminate. The answer is that they should be allowed to, for the essential reason that their discrimination is based upon something central to the purpose and effective governance of the group. Thus, it is appropriate for a Christian group to discriminate against non-Christian leadership, since being Christian is essential to the function of a Christian group. How-ever, it would be inappropriate for say, cricket team to discriminate against non-Christians, since being Christian has nothing to do with whether one can play cricket (of course, it would be appropriate for a cricket team to discriminate against leaders who cannot play cricket). But, one must draw a distinction between the leadership of a group and the membership of a group. It is not appropriate for a university group funded by student fees coming from the pooled resources of students to bar any student from the group. Although the atmosphere may not be particularly welcoming to nonChristians, Christian groups should not be allowed to ban nonChristians from membership. By the same token, universities should not discriminate against Christian or other religious groups solely because these groups espouse religious ideas; those sorts ofrestrictions on speech are what is truly offensive. ,

Line monitor explains Wake Forest walk-up policy The No. 1 ranked men’s basketball team begins home conference play this Sunday at

6:30 p.m. against undefeated Wake Forest. As with all other weekend games, admission into Cameron Indoor Stadium will occur through the walk-up line. You can begin lining up for the game at the back entrance of Cameron on the sidewalk running in front of Card Gymnasium and Wilson Recreation Center whenever you wish. Once a significant number of people are in line, the line monitors will register groups of up to 12 people. Two hours prior to the game,

all individuals in registered groups must be in line so that I may begin admitting people into the stadium. You have already probably noticed that many tents have been established for the Feb. 5 home game against the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. Blue registration has officially commenced, and I will continue registering tents at each tent check until 50 tents are in line. At that point, tent registration will be closed until Jan. 26 when white registration will occur. The K-ville website is up

and running. Information on the admission policy, tenting and admission to games can be found at http://dsg.duke. edu/kv.html. I strongly encourage you to log on so that you can have up-to-date and thorough information on all issues pertaining to home basketball games. The season is off to a great start, but the most exciting part of the season is yet to come. Let’s go Duke! Jeremy Morgan Trinity ’O3

Winter holidays complicate transportation situation Like many others this holiday season, I had problems with the campus bus service during term break. On Dec. 23, the 7:30 Central bus never came, so I waited in the cold for 30 minutes, wondering if in fact the 8 a.m. bus would come (it did). Careful to determine bus schedules before the break began, I checked the website, called transportation and checked with bus drivers (who radioed into headquarters for me). I was explicitly told that although there would be no East-West buses, Duke

the Central bus would run every 30 minutes from 7:30 a.m. until early evening, except for Christmas Day and New Years Day. On the morning of Dec. 23, a bus driver informed me that in fact there would be no central bus on Dec. 24 or 31. Holiday plans

are sometimes made around the ability to get to work, and although Dec. 24 and 31 are university holidays, they are not Medical Center holidays. Since I am expected to be

at work, I expect to be provided, if not with transportation, then certainly with accurate information when I seek it out. It is extremely important that plans be clear, coordinated, communicated and kept. Understan-dably, someone might miss a morning route, but someone else should be keeping tabs to replace a missing driver, so that people do not stand in the cold for 30 minutes. I volunteer at the Ronald McDonald House and so sometimes use the bus stop on Drive between Campus Oregon and Alexander, which, being on an incline, is like a wading pool. I appreciate the

hard work that our bus drivers do and would like to see transportation services support both the drivers and riders in our safe, reliable endeavors to get to work and school. On a separate and positive note, I would like to commend those wonderful drivers who stuck it out on Wednesday, Dec. 4 as the storm hit, making sure that students got back to their respective campuses and employees got as close to home as possible. I would also like to thank Billy, who was an important part of my work day during the early

part of the break, when, before his own vacation, he ensured that those of us who

rely on East-West service were able to get to work.

Commentary

The Chronicle

The real racist Much has changed in the past few weeks; most importantly there's about to be a new Senate Majority Leader. And if you ask me, the events which led to Trent Lott’s resignation were indicative not just of Lott’s shortcomings, but of two major problems in the American political arena: politicians basing their stances on political calculation instead of conviction and the double standard that applies to racism in politics. The first problem, politicians looking to pollsters instead of their consciences, can be easily recognized when one sees the Trent Lott situation for what it was: an attack on Lott orchestrated almost entirely by his enemies. Now I am not defending Lott's statement, which implied that our country would be better off if Strom Thurmond had been elected president Nathan in 1948. Lott’s words, spoken at a dinner honoring Thurmond, were asinine and Carleton offensive. But they were not earth-shattering. He said the same thing in 1980 GettingDown to Business without repercussion. None of thedozen journalists in attendance reported the remarks. Several days after the dinner, when Lott’s enemies realized they finally had ammunition to use against him and other Republicans, news sources began to report it. Again, I’m not defending Lott or even saying he should have kept his job, but it is clear that his statement became a major issue not because of its offensiveness but because of its potiential for political destructive. Want further evidence that politicians look at polls more than their convictions? Note how the three most powerful people in Washington handled the situation. Immediately after he began taking heat, Lott issued a weak apology stating that his comment was merely a light-hearted compliment to Thurmond. The heat kept coming, and so he apologized again, calling his statement “a poor choice of words.” Almost cooked, he apologized again and called his words “terrible.” Lott’s evolving apology proves my point—when apologizing, politicians don’t say how sorry they truly are but instead how sorry their advisors tell them to be. Tom Daschle evidenced this as well. He first defended Lott, saying that both he and Lott often have trouble verbally conveying their thoughts. But then, after realizing that Lott’s comment could be used to successfully attack Republicans, he changed his tune and condemned Lott for an inappropriate and “wrong” statement.It was actually President George W. Bush who, by hanging Lott out to dry, was most responsible for his demise. As he said in a speech in Philadelphia, “Recent comments by Senator Lott do not reflect the spirit of our country. He has apologized, and rightly so. Every day our nation was segregated was a day that America was unfaithful to our founding ideals.” Bush’s words summarize my feelings on the issue, but they should have come much earlier. For a few days after the issue was reported, the White House refused to condemn, and even supported, Lott. Essentially, Bush condemned Lott only after realizing it was politically advantageous. The second problem the situation illustrates is obvious-liberals and conservatives are held to different standards as to what qualifies as condemnable racism. Sure, Lott said that our country would be better off had Thurmond been elected, but is that any worse than A1 Gore's campaign manager Donna Brazille calling Republicans “white boys” who want to “exclude, denigrate and leave behind,” Jesse Jackson calling Jews “hymies” and New York City “Hymietown,” or San Francisco mayor Willie Brown describing a legislative victory by saying “we beat those old white boys fair and square?” Is Lott’s questionable background any worse than that of Bill Clinton’s? Clinton’s mentor, William Fulbright, was a segregationist who condemned Brown v. BOE in the “Southern Manifesto.” Clinton even awarded Fulbright the Presidential Medal of Freedom in 1993. Here's my favorite: Robert C. Byrd has recently served the Senate as Majority Leader, Minority Leader, and President Pro Tempore. He was a member ofKu Klux Klan. He was paid to recruit new members. He said during World War II that he would rather “die a thousand times” than fight side-by-side “with a Negro” and see his country “degraded by race mongrels, a throwback to the blackest specimen from the wilds.” In 2001, he used the n-word on national television. Yet today, Trent Lott is seen as the

symbol ofracism in America and Byrd the elder statesman of the party of civil rights. If Lott got what was coming to him, then what does Byrd deserve?

What the hell is a ‘disability’? So, I had a weird thing happen to me last Sunday. Sitting in the post-game press conference after our women’s basketball team took out Clemson, I had been asking a few questions to gather quotes for upcoming stories. I was able to ask the first two questions relatively smoothly. On the third, however, I ended up stuttering and stammering for 10-15 seconds, ■ before being told to stop and start over

I just don’t ever think about my speech impediment. That struck me as very odd. As I sat in my car, I wondered why that was. I found it difficult to really put my speech impediment in perspective. I tried to think if I’d ever met a person who talked like me, and I realized that I really hadn’t. I’ve known a couple people with lisps, and I’ve met lots of kids with various speech difficulties. But at least from anecdotal experience, I’ve met extremely few adults with speech impediments, and none with my sort of stutter. But I realized that I honestly could care less what kind of statistic I was. What were my odds? 1:1,000?
