Blue Devils avenge loss to Terps Santillan’s condition By NEELUM JESTE The Chronicle

75 As the ball rolled out of Daniel Ewing’s 70 hands and into those Maryland of Drew Nicholas, Maryland had one last chance to send the game into overtime with a three. Lacking any timeouts, the Terps quickly drove the ball down the court and allowed Steve Blake the final word. The senior point guard took the desperation shot with five seconds left in regulation, but it fell short of the bucket and right back into Duke’s possession. J.J. Redick sealed the game with a defensive rebound that led to two free throws and a 75-70 Duke victory. “If they were going to allow us to use that clock, we knew that even if we missed, they’d have to hit a three,” Duke head coach Mike Krzyzewski said. “We were trying to get set up to make sure that we get a shot, but they don’t get the ball until there was just under 10 seconds to go.” No. 8 Duke (18-4, 8-4 in the ACC) got its revenge on No. 13 Maryland (16-7,84) after a 15-point loss to the Terps one month ago. Last night, the Blue Devils were much stronger on the boards than they were the last time these teams competed, and they held center Ryan Randle to seven rebounds—lo less than last time. Duke also held Drew Nicholas to eight points, one-third ofhis total in January’s meeting. Duke had a much greater inside presence, through the strong play of freshman Shelden Williams, who was matched up against Maryland’s senior big men. “We’re getting a lot of balance, inside play and outside play, and we just have to keep continuing to get better,” junior tri-captain Chris Duhon said. “I think Duke

Jesica Santillan remained in critical condition late Wednesday, as further details surfaced surrounding Duke University Hospital’s mistaken Feb. 7 transplant of a heart and lungs of the incorrect blood type into the 17year-old girl. In rapidly declining health and suffering from failing kidneys, Jesica—who had waited three years for the needed organs—is not expected to live more than a few days, unless a new set of donated organs can be found in time. Associate Professor of Surgery Dr. James Jaggers, who performed the operation on Jesica, said Wednesday he mistakenly assumed a blood-type match had been completed. “I am heartbroken about what happened to Jesica,... Early in the morning of Feb, 7, I received a call from Carolina Donor Services and was informed of available organs,” daggers said in a Wednesday statement. “I assumed that after providing Jesica’s name to the organ pro- or James daggers curement organization and after the organs were released to me for Jesica, that the organs were compatible.... “I continue to oversee Jesica’s care and have been devastated by this tragic event,” daggers continued in the release. “I informed Jesica’s parents immediately after the operation that an error had been made and that the organs were blood type-A and Jesica was blood type-0 and that this was an in-

The plane was en route from Zahedan, on the Pakistan border, to Kerman, about 500 miles southeast of Tehran, state-run Tehran television reported. It crashed about 20 miles from its destination. The Russian-made aircraft operated by the Iranian military lost contact with the control tower at about 5:30 p.m. Wednesday, before preparing to land at the Kerman airport, the official Islamic Republic News Agency reported.

University decides not to mandate makeup classes

From staff reports

The University will not reschedule classes missed Monday because of the snow and ice storm, but will offer the option for professors to use Thursday, April 24—the first day of the reading period—as a make-up day. The policy relates only to Trinity College, the Pratt School of Engineering and The Nicholas School of the Environment and Earth Sciences. “Faculty are in the best position to determine whether there is need to make up the material/lab that was missed and if so, whether a make up class/lab period is needed or the work can be incorporated into the remaining regularly scheduled class/lab periods,” officials said in a statement. If a make-up class or period is needed, it will be held in the same time peri-

od and the same room or lab as the canceled class or lab on the single make-up day. No makeup classes can be arranged at any other time. A test, quiz or exam may not be given in this make-up class or lab. Faculty may communicate with the registrar their desire to make up a specific class or lab on April 24. In turn, the registrar will assure that the room is available and open at the scheduled time—the regularly scheduled time for that class or lab on Mondays. Faculty are requested to communicate with their students as soon as possible about whether a make-up class or lab will be held or whether the missed material will be incorporated into the remaining regularly scheduled classes or labs.

Development Laney Funderburk, Fuqua Executive in Residence Robert Garda, Vice President for Student Affairs Larry Moneta, Professor of Psychology—Social and Health Sciences Martha Putallaz and Professor of Political Science Thomas Spragens, who will serve as chair. The Faculty Handbook states that if senior administrators of the University are eligible for reappointment, a committee appointed by the Academic Council will, in the fourth year of the senior administrator’s term, conduct a performance review and submit a confidential report to the University president. The committee’s report is due in early April. The Committee is accepting comments from the Duke community until March 1.

Lackluster celebration torches several benches By ALEX GARINGER and KELLY ROHRS The Chronicle

Four benches, one wheelchair ramp and a stack of Chronicles does not a bonfire make. In the most subdued postgame festivities in recent memory, fans celebrated the men’s basketball team’s win over the University of Maryland Wednesday night with a little beer, a little mud and not much else. Alpha Epsilon Pi’s bench—previously chained to its section until some enterprising Sigma Chi brothers channeled Norm Abram and sawed through the wood—was the first to find its way to the center of Main West Quadrangle. House P’s “Paradise” bench joined it soon after, and its fiery sunset slowly came alive in flames. Mirecourt’s bench then traveled the length of the quad, and upon reaching its final destination almost skidded off the two other benches and landed on three bench-tossers, before being uprighted just in time. “They tried to put it on, but it slipped and almost killed some people,” said sophomore Andy Kay. “It was

awesome.” But other than a few crates, a stuffed terrapin, a Beirut table, a handicap ramp, newspapers, a computer printer and a late-night offering of the Cleland

bench, nothing else happened. “This is pretty lame actually,” said Dean of Judicial Affairs Kacie Wallace, an A-Team member. “It seems like they feel a little obligated rather than en-

thused to do this.”

Students, some of whom had just completed as many as eight weeks of tenting in Krzyzewskiville for the University ofNorth Carolina at Chapel Hill and Maryland games, agreed. “The game was such an awesome game. I feel like they deserve a much better bonfire,” said senior Lucia Stoisor. “And everyone is just settled in to the victory, and isn’t celebrating. This certainly does not remind me of a Mary-

land victory.” Most of those gathered on the quad discussed the Blue Devils’ close win over the Terrapins, some recalling Maryland head coach Gary Williams allegedly cursing and flipping off the Cameron Crazies during a second-half timeout. Only one chant of “D-U-K-E, who the...” broke through, and it did not last long. “This year everyone was just sort of milling around, and going through the motions,” said sophomore Kunal Shah. By midnight, some fans found excitement by playing in the mud, with a lengthy wrestling match between two female students drawing a large crowd before campus police broke it up. The arrival of the Cleland bench offered an attempt at a late-night rally, but like Maryland, the desperation-induced spurt came up short. “Most of the people guarded their benches. We had to resort to Edens,” said sophomore Nikolai Gasiorowski, who helped carry up Cleland’s bench after midnight. “It doesn’t matter that there is no one here. The pride can’t be extinguished, ever.”

Hanna said the restaurant would work to accommodate more students’ food preferences as the semester goes along. “We will also be catering more to vegetarians and vegans because there is such a large demand for it.

Based on feedback from customers, dining services and the Duke University Student Dining Advisory Committee, changes to the menu will be made by March. “Our big request has been for crab legs, which we will be bringing soon,” Hanna said. Other future changes include a liquor license in the next few weeks and a complete renovation during the summer. Wulforst and Hanna are even considering keeping the Bistro open for lunch during the summer, depending on the volume of business during the semester. While much of the dinner crowd comprises Oak Room veterans who have seen the restaurant through its highlights and struggles, the general consensus seems to be a positive attitude towards the new Bistro. “People should definitely give it a shot,” senior Justin Jaworski said.

the Turks to persuade them to open their bases to American troops. American officials, who believe that a northern front would shorten a war with Iraq and make it less bloody for American forces, said the $6 billion in grants offered to the Turks would most likely cover any shocks to the Turkish economy that a war on its border might deliver. Turkish leaders disagree. The country’s economy sustained huge losses in the aftermath of the Persian Gulf War in 1991, and Turkish officials say they are determined to ensure that that does not happen again. In meetings between President George W. Bush and Turkish officials over the weekend, the Americans de-

livered what they said was their final offer: $6 billion in grants and up to $2O billion in loans. Turkish leaders said the American offer was not enough, and Monday they told the United States that they wanted $lO billion in grants and about $22 billion in loans. Wednesday morning, according to American and Turkish officials, Pearson told the Turks that the Bush administration would not budge on the $6 billion part of the proposal, which is considered the most important element. “We put our offer on the table, and we think it’s a good offer,” a Western diplomat said in Ankara.

TERRORIST from page 5 victed of five counts of being an accessory to attempted murder and an accessory to bodily injury—charges introduced so five wounded survivors ofthe attacks, including a Navy officer at the Pentagon, could join the trial as co-plaintiffs. Mentz said it was hard to give a man with two small children the maximum sentence, but that he had to consider the enormity of the crime and el Motassadeq’s lack of contrition even after American co-plaintiffs told the court of their suffering. Witnesses illustrated el Motassadeq’s enthusiasm for the plot, the judge said. “Al-Shehhi said, ‘There will be thousands of dead,’ and the defendant said, ‘We will dance on their graves,”’ Mentz said, citing witness testimony.

Ramzi Binalshibh, Said Bahaji and Zakariya Essabar, all suspected of helping organize the cell. Witnesses said el Motassadeq was as radical as the rest of the group, often talking of jihad—holy war—and his ha-

Schily said the penalty was severe, a judgment shared by a lawyer representing many of the more than 20 American family members and survivors who joined the prosecution in efforts to secure the maximum sentence. “They wanted justice and they got justice,” said lawyer Ulrich von Jeinsen. “They accept that we have another system and since he got the maximum sentence they will be satisfied.” El Motassadeq was raised in a Moroccan middle-class family, came to Germany as a student in 1993 and married a Russian woman. By 1995, he was studying electrical engineering in Hamburg, where he is believed to have first met Atta no later than the following year. He acknowledged being friends with Atta, al-Shehhi and other alleged members of the Hamburg cell including suicide pilot Ziad Jarrah; and

tred of Israel and the United States. Prosecutors allege he used his power of attorney over al-Shehhi’s bank account, to pay rent, tuition and utility bills, allowing the plotters to keep up the appearance of being normal students in Germany. They also noted that he signed Atta’s will. El Motassadeq explained both as things he simply did for friends. He denied for nearly a year after his arrest ever having been to Afghanistan. But on the first day of trial, he admitted training in one of Osama bin Laden’s camps there in 2000, saying he thought it was a Mus-

lim’s duty to learn self-defense. In deciding to appeal, defense lawyers cited the court’s failure to obtain testimony by Binalshibh and Mohammed Haydar Zammar, two friends who they said could exonerate the defendant. Binalshibh, a Yemeni suspect in U.S. custody, is believed to have been the Hamburg cell’s key contact with alQaida. Zammar, an alleged al Qaeda recruiter in Hamburg, is in prison in Syria. Both Syria and the United States refused to release the men to testify, German authorities refused turn over their files on the two, saying transcripts of their interrogations were provided to them on condition they only be used for intelligence purposes. Mentz rejected the defense argument. “The decision of a foreign government cannot be used in Germany as the grounds for an unfair trial,” he said.

A Recess staffer, a comedian and a boatload of disappointment

Who

wouldn't be pumped to talk to

Dave Chappelle?The guy is hysterical.

When the opportunity presented itself to interview the man behind the genius —Half Baked and Comedy Central's new Chappelle's Show—I bragged to every guy I knew would overflow with jealousy. I'm the man. Only problem is, after talking to the stoner for 9 little over a half hour, hung up our conference call bored out of my mihd. I looked at a friend who had joined me in the Recess office and asked in utter shock, "How could a man so funny on television be so boring on the phone?" Perhaps he was too high for his lips to function or to omit the 834 "yeah',' "man" and "yeah man"s that plagued our cor versation. Or maybe after two previous c ference calls with o journalists around tt try, the man was jui spent. Sorry to disa ladies and gents, b Dave disappointed

So, instead of running the whole interview, we'll give you the very best of what Mr. Chappelle had to say: What is your attitude toward those who get offended by racial on your show? When we're writing it, it's a black dude and a white dude sitting at the typewriter together. It's like racial harmony—we like comedy to offend everybody. How much weed goes into your comedy? If I was on stage and there were no stoned people, I wouldn't tell a weed joke. The show d-frequency Certain *nna be funnier in that

Recess Boy had a tray full of shot glasses which were actually made of Jell-0 and, of course, the Jell-0 itself was spiked. Ail we had to do was take a shot glass and pour a heapin' helpin’ of Aristocrat up in that piece. After taking the first gulp of the sweat nectar, we kept tilting our hands up and chased the putridity with a Jeli-0 shot—hence, the double shot! It was simple; Take your regular Jell-0 shot mix (Jell-0 powder, water and booze), but instead of pouring it into little shot glasses, pour it into one of the iceshots.com shot-glass molds. Pop the bad boy in the fridge and moments later, the most magnificent creation since salt and a lime will emerge—a Jell-0 shot that is actually a shot glass. The molds can be used to make shot glasses out of ice, frozen juices, chocolate, wax, dried up crusty lube or anything else that can pour and harden —

RECESSI^IUM

Anti-Semitism. Nazis. The Holocaust. The very mention of “Jewish film" tends to make these visions of pain resonate heavily in the mind—procuring the grayest, most depressing memories of Life is Beautiful, Schindler's List, The Pianist.... If not the Holocaust, however, one thinks of pop culture's portrayals of Judaism, the comedy of Seinfeld and SNL's Hanukkah Harry. But, Judaism and film encompasses so much more.

This Saturday through Monday, the Carolina Theatre presents the fifth Annual Jewish Film Festival right here in Durham. Wanting this festival to shatter all stereotypes, Jim Carl, the Carolina's director of programming, speaks to the festival's spirit: "To be honest, I don't like themes. When planning this festival, our goal was to show a bunch of good films that had roots in Jewish culture—films that appeal to a lot of different people." The selection of films premieres modern masterpieces like Constantin Costa-Gavras' Amen and John Cusack's Max (a provocative "what if" about the. early days of Hitler), as well as foreign flicks, documentaries and

Crossing Borders low-budgeters that explore homosexuality, communism, Hollywood... ...and even Southern culture "Southern Jews?" you ask Oh yeah, this isn't transplanted Jewish families reloeating to the Triangle or retiring in Dade County; it's about generations of Jewish culture that even predates the Civil War. Shalom Y'all—a documentary tracing the history of Southern Jews—is one of the centerpieces of the festival, garnering its "best emerging film" prize. The

"Over the generations, you come to grips with this sense of being American, and coming from this strong cultural background; it's sort of how you balance the two and who you are in relation to it.... We've crossed over into a lot of mainstream film festivals, and that's when we realized our message was getting through." Shalom Y'all just scratches the surface.

So, there's only one real solution to the pre-diploma bluesfilling up your remaining 82 days with as much activity as possible. We've taken the liberty of compiling a list of things to do before you leave for the corporate world, or in my case, my mom's couch, and there's enough variety here that you shouldn't be heard saying, "There's nothing to do around this hell hole," for the rest of the semester. Also, feel free to get a head start if you're an underclassman. Play on, playa:

I'll look back

Morehead Flanehrium

If your last trip to a planetarium was in fourth grade, maybe it's time you gave the (fake) night sky a second look. Take the Robertson Scholars Bus over to Chapel Hill and you'll get dropped off right outside the Morehead Planetarium on Franklin Street. This favorite field-trip destination—one of the largest planetariums in the world—features special programs and continuing education classes for all ages and also offers star shows on the weekends. Go for "Carolina Skies," an informal introduction to the current night sky, at 7 p.m. Thursday through Saturday, and impress your friends with your constellation smarts. Or try a "Sky Safari" and 8 p.m., and take a wild ride through the cosmos. Tickets are only $3.50 for students, $4.50 for everyone else, and hey, stars are cool, so check it out. -Macy Parker

Graduatio So the first time I went to the Primate Center as a biological anthropology and anatomy minor, I asked one of the researchers what

he was feeding the lemurs, and he said, "Purina monkey chow." I laughed, figuring it was some kind of "lemur humor." But no, it's true and that's just one of the many interesting experiences I've had among the little prosimians. Duke's Primate Center is the largest housing of prosimian primates anywhere in the world—and it's just around the comer off Old Erwin Road, on Lemur Lane (of course). You have to plan ahead a little to get the tour—call two weeks in advance to book a date —but the $4 admission fee with your Duke ID is more than fair to see the exotic little Malagasy animals. One of my favorites is the Coquerel's Sifakas —the black and white little vertical leapers, one of whom stars in the PBS kids' show Zoboomafoo. Rumor has it that one of the female sifakas just gave birth about two months ago to a little one that's now riding jockey-style on her back. The ringtail lemurs roam a large enclosed area of the Duke Forest, and BAA students, who may soon become as endangered as some of the lemurs they study, can often be seen charting their behaviors. —Meg Lawson

Back in the old days, you've heard the stories, when we had the Hideaway and beer trucks and lots of free and meaningless sex, Duke students also had to fulfill an additional unofficial graduation requirement. Five of them still exist, but the sixth —and certainly most dangerous—has gone the way of the buffalo: no longer do we swim across the gigantic Williams Water Plant reservoir situated at the corner of Hillsborough Road and Club Boulevard. The city's water supply may be

cleaner, but we're a whole lot lamer. Nobody is quite sure when the last brave souls completed the feat, but the answers range anywhere from last month to over 21 years ago. Regardless, before grabbing your fins, a few words of caution from plant supervisor Bobby Haun: "There are police officers up there. All around it." Yep, you guessed it, the 5-0. Also, you should be warned that the water you'd be sliding your greaseball bodies through will one day be coming out the faucets and shower heads of your Durham neighbors. While that may be further enticement for some, Haun remarked dead-pan, "Yeah, it's a liability issue." Maybe it's not the best idea to complete this last and sadly forgotten graduation requirement. But, who said everything you do in college has to make sense? *Recess frees itself from any liability and ain't bailing your poor ass

outta jail. —Greg Veis

However, since there are several separate components that compose the Parklands, it can be difficult to decide how and where to start. Here are some

suggestions 1) Every Sunday through the rest of the school year, there will be a free, instructor-led Winter or Spring Wildflowers Hike through the Eno River Valley. The tours all begin at 2 p.m. at the Eno River State Park Headquarters down 1-85 on Cole Mill Road, and they are worthy starting points for the less adventurous. 2) Round up a couple of tuna salad sandwiches and some lube and head out to the Fanny's Ford Trail at park headquarters It's a fairly short hike, but it snakes all around the river and is one of the few trails that has remained open through the tough winter. Fley, if you grab your tent and the canoe lying around the ol' dorm room, you can even spend the night camping in the Few's Ford section of the park. 3) A mere 10-minute drive from campus, you'll run into the West Point of the Eno. It's open from 8 a.m. until sundown, and every one of the 388 acres is so exquisite you won't believe you're still in the trickin' "City of Medicine." If you're lucky enough to be here during the summer, make a point of attending the Festival for the Eno there and take in all the music, craft booths and hippie Durham folk. —Greg Veis

Here are some other ideas on how to If you've never been to the Starlite Drive-In, shame on you—you're obviously not taking advantage of the opportunities available to you as a Durham resident. This may be the only place in the world where you can drop the kids at the playground, rent a video, browse through a flea market, buy a gun and see a firstrun movie, all from the comfort of your car, all in the exact same location. The Starlite Drive-In appears to defy the laws of physics—or maybe some other sort of law —but it is a reality, and it's only in Durham, folks. Located down a gravel road off of East Club Boulevard, the "theater" consists of an open field with a large projection screen at one end. Instead of those cool window radios you see in 50s movies, the Starlite has its own, even cooler, FM radio station, so you can listen to the movie while you make out in the back seat without even having to roll your window down. Rolling your window down might not be the most appealing option anyway, especially if you're there on an off night and the only other car is a large nondescript van. Still, the Durham experience is decidedly incomplete without a visit to the Starlite, and with a ticket price of only $5, you truly can't afford to miss it. —Macy Parker

/Oam, the Future of Hip Hop Music. Welcome to WJLR, Justus League Radio." The opening line off the debut album from the Justus League's biggest act, Little Brother, explodes out of your speakers, and you're nodding your head, hoping, just hoping, that these guys are above the hype. Nobody in the fine state of North Carolina has been for a long time now, but the Justus League—a loose collective of MCs and DJs from all around the Triangle —and especially Little Brother, are trying to shake that. That's right, the state that brought you the lyrical genius of Petey Pablo has also birthed what many people outside the Justus League are calling the Future of Hip Hop: Little Brother —two emcees, Phonte and Big Pooh, and their DJ/producer, 9th Wonder. This group, who met down the road at NCCU in '9B, is being talked about by heads across the country, from San Francisco to Philly, from new converts to industry godfathers like Pete Rock and ?uestlove of The Roots. Everyone's in on them, it seems, except those of us in their hometown. Their musical style, reminiscent of the Native Tongues movement of the early '9os and perfected by De La Soul and A Tribe Called Quest, is driving their rising credibility. This old-school sound stems from the diverse musical influences each member brings to the group. "My gateway into hip hop was the soul my mom would play on Saturday mornings when we'd clean the house," Phonte said in a recent interview. "My uncles were big funk and jazz fans, so there was always a mixture of sounds coming up in the crib." 9th Wonder had a different experience rooted in his high school marching band and orchestra days; "I listened to overtures during the day and hip hop at night." Background aside, the real reason for all this praise is their debut album on ABB Records, The Listening. It's an 18-track masterpiece that spurred ?uestlove to exclaim, "I'm so friggin' jealous of

albums. Probably because other cats put out bullshit records." With talk like this fronh within the group and all the outside hype, Little Brother has a lot to live up to—a responsibility they will have to grapple with. But until they've cemented their position atop the hip hop game, they're content, as 9th Wonder says, with "following in the footsteps of our bigger brothers and just continuing the tradition." And the rest of us will just have to be content in watching as they try to create hip hop traditions of their own. —Matt Siedsma The Listening drops Feb. 25, and you can pick up your very own copy around here at Millennium Music in Durham and Schoolkids Records in Chapel Hill.

The Attack is Back i

It's Grammy time again and among the usual array of bizarre nominations is one out-of-place nod for No Doubt's "Hella Good" as Best Dance Song. Perhaps the nomination for this Nellee Hooper-produced track is best explained by the fact that Hooper was an early collaborator with the members of Massive Attack, the UK collective that's often characterized as a dance act, yet makes music that's deeper and more reflective than the club-pounding connotation of that category. While the members of Massive Attack have always don't make conventional dance music, success in that has not eluded them. "Unfinished Sympathy unAuE: o ff 0f thgin debut album, Blue Lines, was a club hit back in 1991 and remains popular

today. Despite the hiccup of mediocrity that

was 1994's Protection (produced by Hooper), Massive triumphantly reemerged with the chart-topping suc-

cess of Mezzanine in 1998 Now, five years later, with 100th Window, Massive continue their tradition of making sophisticated dance music by combining artful, experimental trip hop and atmospheric vocals to reveal an uneasy awareness of the dehumanization of society. This is particularly evi-

dent on the opening track, "Future Proof." The oscillating, synthesizeresque beat and pattering percussion, which create a sense of nervousness and urgency throughout, are tempered by the slow-motion death conveyed by the monotonous vocal track. This same sort of melodic pathos continues throughout the album, reaching new heights on the haunting "A Prayer for England." With its clinical vocals courtesy of the slightly disturbing Sinead O'Connor, a windswept melody and a bass-heavy Dackbeat, the track makes you feel like you're standng alone in the cold seeking redemption. Massive's technological wizardry often gives way to melodic, textured compositions, but occasionally the group is the victim of its own experimentation. In particular, many of their initially interesting beats either drone on for too long—in the case of the two-minute finale to "Butterfly Caught"—or the tracks themselves become redundant, evidenced by the penultimate track "Nametaken." Nonetheless, there's no denying the beautiful tragedy that characterizes the rest of the album. —Hilary Lewis

A Weekend of E DUMA celebrates architecture

cursed the Qn way --'Slice Drive and as we try to sleep in our Wannamaker beds. But have we ever stopped and wondered about the people behind the buildings? Or pondered the time, effort and creativity within Duke's latest structure? Okay, so the new parking garage isn't a Frank Lloyd Wright masterpiece, but with "North Carolina School: The Art of Architecture," curator Phil Szostak pays tribute to a group of local artists who are pushing the boundaries of modern

architecture. A graduate of the North Carolina State School of Design and a Chapel Hill-based architect, Szostak is a first-time curator, For two years he searched out the work of North

Carolina architects to create the Duke University Museum

of Art's latest exhibition, opening tonight. The show is particularly appropriate for the DUMA as it prepares for its own architectural debut with the Nasher Museum of Art. Szostak emphasizes architecture as an art form, highlighting the journey that goes into the making of a structure. "Some pieces in the show are scraps pulled off an architect's desk," Szostak said. "Sometimes it takes putting a black frame around them to make others realize the work behind the sketches."

Entries were submitted from across the state 21 ~£ mg up the f jna, show The pieces ran g e from pen and ink drawings to computer-generated images to housing materials. Some of the models would make Derek Zoolander cry, "What is this, a center for ants?," while the museum's entryway is adorned with life-size plans for hurricane storm windows. And the show is not just for humans—birdhouses dot the walls of DUMA'S second floor. Black-and-white photographs of architects and architect teams connect the artwork to the artist, '

exhibitors"

giving the exhibition a personal'feel, But why North Carolina? Celebrating its 55th year, State's School of Design is one of the leading architecture programs in the nation. "Many people are unaware of the community of architects we have in the area," Szostak said. "And that worldfamous architects Buckminster Fuller, for example—have been involved in the area." The saying goes that if you build it, they will come. With this new exhibit, people will come even before the foundation is broken. —Jessica Fuller —

‘Spirit’s Eys’ a worthwhile journey can an artist confined to a strictly visual medium adequately express strong emotions? How can he accurately convey culture, memory, tradition and love in away that allows others to experience the full impact of their meaning? This is the endeavor that Wendell Smith embarks upon in his exhibit, "Spirit's Eye," which features a series of vibrant abstract oil paintings. These large, dramatic canvases offer a vivid exploration of the intimate aspects of his life, values and beliefs. Smith, a Fulbright scholar, is a native of Trinidad, and his work is heavily influenced by that AfroCaribbean culture, especially the celebration of Carnival and his Roman Catholic upbringing. These recurring themes combine and transcend his work, occasionally creating pieces of an exceptionally personal nature. A photograph of an ultrasound of his unborn child inspired "Conqueror of the Night." "Haunted Paradise" reflects his hesitancy to have a consistent utopian theme throughout his works When speaking about his art, Smith is hesitant to define its essence because, frankly, his works do not lend themselves to strict definition. Instead, they playfully tease at the corners of our minds provoking memory and inviting us to explore our own definitions. His works take the form of large abstract paintings, boldly colored. Smith's unusual use of unstretched canvas frees the shape of his paintings and permits them to reach out beyond their own boundaries.

How

Similarly, Smith presents his own interpretation of his life's culture and traditions, but he does not limit the experience to himself. He opens our minds to discovering our own reaction Upon entering this exhibit, one is overwhelmed with the sense of joy conveyed through passionate and vibrant colors. These canvases sing and dance in euphoric rhythms that reach out toward the viewer. It is clear that Smith has laid his soul upon the canvas as an offering to his spectator. This exhibit takes one forth on a voyage of self-discovery; or perhaps one simply of recovery—remembering memories long forgotten, sweet and joyful, moments of lost innocence and unfettered joy. Smith invites viewers to join him without challenge. He simply beckons them into the tumble of feelings that are singular to his own experience yet oddly universal. —Gillian Barnard "Spirit's Eye" is on display in the Louise Jones Brown Gallery in the Bryan Center through March.

•-I

THE NOD

Going into the first game of the season, UNC was considered a superior rebounding team. But Tillis, Beard and Winter Whitley alone combined for 36 boards in that game. Add Duke’s familiarity with Cameron’s rims, and that advantage should only increase. The strength of Bell and Sutton, however, should give

the Blue Devils trouble.

The game will feature the second match-up between national player-of-the-year candidates Brown and Beard. The Duke guard gets the advantage, though: while, Brown is one of this year’s great players, Beard is one of the greatest of all-time. Beard’s teammates compliment her on the perimeter, with even post players like Tillis possessing three-point range.

Depth is Duke’s advantage, as Whitley, Jessica Foley, Mistie Bass and Sheana Mosch all average over 5.2 points per game La’Tangela Atkinson, who has started 14 times this season, may be the best sixth woman in the ACC, as she is averaging 10.1 points per game and 8.4 rebounds per game, good for second in the conference.

EVEN

Duke has been on a tear since its only loss of the season against Connecticut, hardly being challenged by its lesser ACC opponents. Add to the homecourt advantage of Cameron Indoor Stadium—Duke will not be willing to compromise its ACC lead on its home court. One loss was enough for the Blue Devils at home, and they are not about to make it two. much has changed since Duke’s 78-67 overtime win. The two schools have solidified mselves as the top two teams in the ACC while gaining national top-10 recognition, lough North Carolina has an answer for almost anything any team throws at it, the Tar i\s will not be able to slow down Alana Beard, who had 23 points in the second half in last meeting between the two.

the season. Bass, despite breaking her nose in practice and struggling with peripheral vision due to her protective mask, has been playing well since she started coming off the bench. “She’s an excellent low-post player, which is something we really haven’t had in many years,” Goestenkors said. “She’s doing a tremendous job for us.” Carolina will also have to stop the Blue Devils’ scoring duo of Alana Beard and Iciss Tillis.

Both players were named along 19 other finalists for the Naismith College Basketball Player of the Year award. In the overtime game against the Tar Heals in January, Tillis and Beard combined for 42 points in the second half and extra time as they led the Blue Devils to a 78-67 victory. However, tonight’s matchup promises to have Cameron on its feet as it carries over the energy from last night’s dramatic men’s victory over Maryland. “I think it’s going to be a tremendous atmosphere here at Cameron,” Goestenkors said. “I’m just looking forward to the game.” with

McCray—after

Jones and

Shelden

Williams had both missed layups. Jones sank two shots from the charity stripe to give his team a four-point lead with 2:18 left. The momentum stayed with Duke as Ewing nailed a three-pointer 42 seconds later with the shot clock dwindling. Duke held some larger leads of seven and 10 points throughout the game, but Maryland always seemed to creep back to within a couple. With 13:44 left in the second half and the Blue Devils possessing a 44-41 lead, Jones drove down the middle of the lane and slammed a one-handed dunk into the hoop. Just under a minute later, Redick made a shot from the perimeter wing off an assist by Duhon to put Duke up by eight, sending the crowd into a frenzy. “Once I hit a couple in a row, my confidence just skyrocketed,” Redick said. “The shot at the end of the shot clock, when I was falling away, I probably wouldn’t have taken that shot in the first half, but because I had hit a couple throughout the second half, I took it.” Midway through the first half, both teams were knotted at 19, when Duke

went on a 10-0 run, sparked by a Williams layup. Two consecutive nearly identical jumpers from Jones within the next minute and a layup by Shavlik Randolph continued Duke’s roll. Maryland was led by Holden, who had 18 points, five rebounds and three blocks.

“[Maryland!

Krzyzewski said. “They’re a championship level team. For our kids to come out on top, we’re very proud of it.... You can tell those kids respect one another.”

A tragic error

a tragedy of unspeakable sadness that has drawn the attention of the nation, Duke University Hospital officials admitted this week that on Feb. 7 a surgeon transplanted a heart and lungs of the wrong blood type into the body of 17-year-old Jesica Santillan. Now, as Santillan lies in her hospital bed awaiting a miracle, the Duke community and the medical profession should take time to reflect on the meaning of recent events and consider how such a mistake can be prevented from ever happening again. Santillan’s case has wrenched the hearts of everyone on campus and indeed of many Americans. She came to the United States from Mexico only a few, short years ago, brought by her parents in search of the expensive, complicated medical procedure that would spare her life. With the friendship of philanthropist Mack Mahoney, Santillan’s hopes for basic survival improved greatly. Those hopes traveled the widest of emotional extremes two weeks ago, first with the news that doctors had found organs to transplant to Santillan, and soon after with the revelation that the organs were of the wrong blood type. Santillan’s struggle to survive is an inspiration and a testament to the human spirit. The events of recent weeks also require reflection and examination of the processes of Duke Hospital. That Santillan’s flawed operation was so preventable, apparently due entirely to human negligence, makes it that much more tragic and that much more a call for action on the part of Hospital officials. The discrepancy in the organs’ blood types led to the near-immediate rejection of the organs, and this should and could have been caught at several points during the frantic hours surrounding her operation. Tragically, the simple but extraordinarily essential task of matching blood types was not done. Over the coming days, months and years, Duke Hospital will need to strengthen the safeguards that apparently failed so terribly. Where and when the doctors went wrong is still not entirely clear, but it is certain that those who sent the organs had no knowledge or had incorrect knowledge of Santillan’s needs, either because they failed to ask or Duke Hospital officials did not tell them. More than the error of one person, this case demonstrates a systematic failure by Duke Hospital. Aside from seeking a miracle transplant for Santillan, perhaps the best action Hospital doctors and administrators can take now is to be as forthright as possible regarding the mistakes ofthe case. The Hospital must hold itself up to the accountability of the public if it ever hopes to improve its procedures. A statement issued by Mahoney that administrators attempted to limit his ability to speak publicly, if true, would demonstrate an act of unconscionable insensitivity. Duke Hospital remains one of the premiere research and clinical hospitals in the nation, and this case should not cause widespread fear about the Hospital’s care. But it should serve as a cautionary reminder to all medical centers that no hospital is immune to such occurrences, and that if Duke hopes to stay a leader in health care, it cannot accept preventable tragedies such as these.

This was a tragic error, and we accept responsibility for our part. Dr. William Fulkerson, Hospital Chief Executive Officer, on the organ transplant of the wrong blood type at Duke Hospital (see story, page one).

DSG president speaks Over the past couple of weeks, Duke Student Government has been the subject of numerous articles and opinion pieces.

COMMENTARY

The Chronicle

Carolina Blue After six weeks of infiltration in Chapel Hill, I long to paint my hot naked body in a shade of blue only Blue Devils appreciate. “The only true blue is sky blue” is a phrase that becomes too familiar at UNC. Despite widespread symptoms of color blindness, Carolina has more to offer than Top ofthe Hill and Halloween decadence. In my first six weeks at the other end of Tobacco Road, I’ve become increasingly surprised by the somewhat drastic differences between the two rival schools. On several R

accounts, Carolina takes the cake.

Immediately after arriving here in *1 Si January, I was overwhelmed by the size of the campus. I thought it would be pj • i b P er impossible to find my way around or tap into a network of friends. Just looking Scoville at the massive bus schedules, I was Tqpher’s Parade ready to pack my bags and head for the Gothic Wonderland. I managed the first week, albeit with help from every passing, though incredibly hospitable, stranger who thought I was some French tourist. The second week, it started to make sense, and I suddenly realized the beauty of Chapel Hill’s complex and gratis transit system. Jump on a bus, go to Harris Teeter. Fifteen-minute walk to class? Consult your handy bus schedule. Need a bus at 3 in the morning? Wait for the P2P (point-to-point: the drunk bus). Drunk driving is not a commonly accepted practice as one might argue it is at Duke, and I’m sure everyone prefers sickbus passengers at 2 a.m. to a slew of swervy sedans Saturday nights. Why all the buses? If you’re asking this question, you have clearly isolated yourself at the Duke Country Club. Buses certainly facilitate the social life both on and off campus at Carolina, and the two spheres tend to merge. Chapel Hill is an incredibly dynamic and large place. There’s a lot of stuff going on, and people need to get around quickly by bus, especially if they live on the periphery of campus. For instance, students congregate mid-day at the Pit, smack dab in the middle of two libraries, a dining hall, a coffee house, the Union and student stores. How’s that for a Student Village? After lunch, you might walk to a hefty encampment on the main quad. Yes, students are truly socio-politically active at Carolina. Imagine that at a major university. Protests, petitions, sit-ins, teach-ins, campaigns and Hunger Lunches. The student government has real authority, and the whole campus was completely engaged in the recent elections. I can’t tell you how many people stopped by my room to chat about candidates. Student government is not the only credible group on campus, either. Most organizations and student groups seem to offer significant, well-advertised programming and people take their responsibilities to these groups seriously. Students are meaningfully engaged, and thenenergy is pervasive. In case you live in a wind tunnel, let me explain the other aspect of Carolina’s vibrant social scene. Monday; Linda’s. Tuesday: Henry’s. Wednesday: Ham’s. Thursday: Cat’s Cradle or ffat party. Friday; The Cave. Saturday: Player’s. Sunday: He’s Not Here. Imagine a school where Greeks don’t unilaterally control the social scene, where students don’t binge drink and wander around from dorm to dorm, where one can carry on a reasonably intelligent conversation over a few glasses of wine and where you can walk to a number of bars or restaurants. If you spend a day at Carolina, you just might return to Duke laughing at Duke Student Government, protests bn Chapel Quad, ffat parties, George’s Garage and everyone’s obsession with a 4.0 GPA. There’s more to life than we often realize at Duke. Carolina students remind Dukies that it’s possible to remain attached to reality. They can separate their school-related lives from the rest of their existence. I feel like a complete person at Carolina, not just a college student. However, Duke students are always students surrounded by a thick layer of Duke stone, separated from reality. Nonetheless, Duke has a lot to offer its students, and admittedly people have a great time, myself included. But is there something missing in the picture of a student’s life at Duke, and what might that be? Do we resign ourselves to the fact that Duke might have great classes and professors, but doesn’t cut it in other areas? Maybe instead of massive social engineering, Duke needs a trip to Chapel Hill to figure out what makes the other end of Tobacco Road snap, crackle and pop.

Clearing the Air President Nan Keohane has stated that she does not support the campaign to divest from Israel, as the crisis is “far too multifaceted to treat as a simple issue of Israeli responsibility and noncompliance.” However, the situation in Palestine/Israel can be clearly assessed by individuals willing to read more than mainstream headlines. Keohane and others maintain that m.ipr the conditions in Palestine/Israel lack M y*. J sufficient “moral clarity” to warrant a pointed criticism of one side. Of HHHfIHi course, the advent of suicide bombings Emily has significantly confounded liability t n U issues. Suicide bombings targeting vorY innocent Israelis present a major hurTower die to peace and are deplorable to those genuinely seeking a resolution to this conflict. Civilian attacks are not a constructive response to the illegal occupation. Though unacceptable forms of retaliation, they are retaliation against the occupation and the Israel Defense Force’s (IDF) systematic oppression of the Palestinians. The devastating 36 year occupation that has divided and conquered an entire people with checkpoints, policies of collective punishment and the killing of innocent people amounts to nothing less than state-sponsored terrorism. This terror, just like that of the appalling suicide bombings carried out by small and independent Palestinian groups, must come to an end. The cycle can only be broken with real commitments to nonviolence. In July 2002, militant Palestinian organizations including Hamas and the Palestinian political faction Fatah, worked with European diplomats to draft a preliminary settlement that would have suspended all attacks within Israel. Less than two hours before the accord was to be announced, Israeli leaders, aware of the pending settlement, sent a Lockheed Martin-made F-16 to bomb a civilian populated area in Gaza. The attack injured 140 people and killed 11 children and 6 adults. The proposal was annulled and Palestinian militants resumed their attacks. Ariel Sharon hailed the F-16 bombing as one of Israel’s greatest successes. There is no way to end the attacks without challenging Israel in a powerful, nonviolent manner. Divestment will pressure the Israeli government to

end the illegal occupation and the state-sponsored terrorism without inflicting any more violence and death on either side. If our funds went to violent Palestinian groups, there would be a need to divest from companies with those investments as well. We have seen how divestment can effect change; influential institutions like Duke must take a stand and work towards peace. It is helpful to remember that the African National Congress, Nelson Mandela’s opposition group to Apartheid South Africa, was considered a terrorist organization by the United States until the mid1980s. Despite many people’s disagreement with the ANC’s use of violence, the overall picture was never lost, enabling people to see the oppressive apartheid government as the root, not the sole, problem. The parallels to the Occupied Palestinian Territories (OPT) are clear. The occupation of the West Bank and Gaza is illegal, as the United Nations, including Secretary General Kofi Annan, has affirmed. In 2002, the UN. General Assembly passed resolution 160-4 that affirmed Israel’s right to “secure recognized borders’ and Palestine’s right to an “independent state” in the West Bank and Gaza. The illegal Israeli settlements in the OPT are slowly strangling any hope for a twostate solution. Numerous Israeli organizations, academics and a significant portion of the private civilian population are adamantly opposed to Israel’s policies of repression in the OPT. B’Tselem, The Israeli Center for Human Rights in the Occupied Territories, has concluded, “Israel has created in the Occupied Territories a regime of separation based on discrimination, applying two different systems of law in the same area and basing the rights of individuals on their nationality. This regime is the only one of its kind in the world.” The call for divestment from military ties to Israel is an integral part of an international movement demanding the cessation of the dead-end policy of systematic oppression. Divestment was the first step towards peace for all peoples in South Africa, and it is the first step that we must take in order to create a just and lasting peace for both Palestinians and Israelis.

A strange budget cut Say it ain’t so, Mr. President, You might think that with the country gearing up for war this would be the wrong time—absolutely the worst time—to cut federal school aid for the children of men and women in the armed forces. Nobody would do that, right? Right? Alas

Bob Herbert Commentary Undeterred by the anxiety and hardships faced by youngsters whose parents may be heading overseas, and perhaps into combat, President George W. Bush has proposed substantial cuts in the government’s Impact Aid program, which provides badly needed funds to school districts that have a significant number of students from military families. The program was established during the Truman administration. When a school district is in an area that has military installations or other types of federal property, it is cut off from a range of revenue sources—residential, business and industrial property taxes, for

example—that would have been available if the land and facilities were privately owned and developed. The districts are still obligated, however, to provide schooling

for children whose parents are stationed or work at such facilities. The idea of Impact Aid is to at least partially offset this revenue shortfall. Case in point: The Virginia Beach public schools. It has students whose parents are assigned to various military installations. It receives about $l2 million in Impact Aid. Bush’s budget proposal would cut that by more than half—an estimated $7.5 million, according to the district’s

superintendent, Timothy Jenney. “That would be fairly devastating for us,” Jenney said in an interview. “We’re very lean with our operating funds, the lowest per pupil in the area, and certainly well below the state average.” Under Bush’s budget, Impact Aid would continue for children whose parents live on a military base, but not for those whose families live off base. This is a specious distinction that does not take into account the overall deficit in tax revenues and the special needs of military youngsters. “There’s a fair amount of anxiety among our children,” Jenney said, “especially at the elementary level, from thekids whose parents are now deployed, or those who hear that their mom or dad has been called up and the deployment is imminent.” Just last week a gung-ho Bush stood before thousands of sailors at a naval station near Jacksonville,

Fla., and declared, “In this challenging period, great tasks lie ahead for the Navy and for our entire military.” If that’s so, how do you then turn around and tell your military personnel: Oh, by the way, we’re going to cut the financial support we’ve been providing for your kids in school? Virginia Beach is just one of many districts across the country that will be hit hard if the president’s proposed cuts actually take effect. They would have to make up tens of millions of dollars in lost federal aid. Presidents eager for budget savings have frequently proposed cuts in Impact Aid. Congress has almost always resisted. What makes Bush’s proposal so potentially devastating is that it comes when he is marshaling the nation for war, when the federal government is running up record budget deficits, when most states are struggling with huge budget deficits of their own, when school districts across the country are already suffering financially, and when both houses of Congress are controlled by the president’s party. Who could imagine that in a wartime atmosphere we would consider leaving the children of the military behind? Boh Herbert’s column is syndicated by the New York Times News Service.
