Do it for yourself," Peterman said.

With war plans for eady on the drawing board and er war on terrorism still under hreats against North Korea ave the United States overex- now, the United States' main with North Korea has been of ballistic missiles to Syria, d other countries. Now North nuclear program is added to United States has been suspi- cious about North Korea's nuclear intentions for some time despite the agreement. A CIA report in January said that during the second half of last year, North Korea "continued its attempts to procure technology worldwide that could have applications in its nuclear program. "We assess that North Korea has produced enough plutonium for at least one, and possibly two, nuclear weapons." Assistant Secretary of State James Kelly visited North Korea on Oct. 3-5 and demanded that the communist state address global concerns about its nuclear and other weapons programs. In response, the Pyongyang govern- ment accused Bush's special envoy of making "threatening remarks." The United States refused all comment on the discussions. Under the 1994 agreement, North Korea promised to give up its nuclear weapons program and to allow inspections to verify that it did not have the material needed to construct such weapons. But it has yet to allow the inspec- tions, drawing criticism from the Bush administration. The agreement also called for the construction of two light water nuclear reactors to replace the pluto- nium-producing reactors Pyongyang had been using. The reactors were being financed mostly by South Korea and Japan. Construction of the reactors began just two months ago. An administration source said Kelly also raised with North Korea evidence that Pyongyang may have a urani- mum-enrichment program. The pro- gram, which the United States believes would only be used to devel- op a nuclear bomb, began under the Clinton administration, according to the official. Surprisingly, North Korea con- firmed the allegation. The Bush administration has not decided how to respond. "We're going to keep talking," an official said. After months of tension with South Korea, the North resumed high-level talks in August that restarted stalled reconciliation efforts on the Korean peninsula - divided by the most heavily armed border in the world. The Koreas were divided after World War II and remained that way at the end of the inconclusive Korean War from 1950-53. About 37,000 U.S. troops are stationed in South Korea as a deterrent against the North. CRYOSURGERY Continued from Page 1A "It will kill some normal breast tis- sue as well, but mainly it will kill the cancer," Sabel said. Unlike standard treatments such as mastectomy or lumpectomy where part of or the entire breast is removed, cryosurgery leaves minimal defect in the breast. Because the procedure leaves the membranes of the dead can- cer cells intact, the body can reabsorb the tissue to avoid any visible disfig- urement in the breast. Currently, a research trial is in progress with women who are in the early stages of breast cancer. The pri- mary goal of the trial is to see whether cryosurgery can stimulate the body's immune system to destroy the remaining or subsequent cancer cells. Ideally, after recognizing the tumor proteins, the immune system will learn to fight off the cancer and pre- vent it from spreading to other parts of the body. "I'm hoping that by freezing the tumor, the immune system will learn to recognize cancer and go out and destroy cancer in other parts of the body, the same way it looks for bacte- ria or viruses with certain proteins," Sabel said. After undergoing cryosurgery, trial participants are tested three weeks later to determine if the cancer has been destroyed and if the immune sys- tem has been stimulated. "If it stimulates the immune system, then it might be better than surgery." Sabel added that cryosurgery involves less pain than conventional breast cancer treatments. "It can cause very few side effects. Of the patients we've treated, none of them have needed pain medication besides Tylenol." Breast cancer is the second leading cause of cancer death among women. This year alone, approximately 200,000 women were diagnosed, and a predicted 40,000 women will die from it. Bruce Williams talked about his relationship with Peterman and their children and said it was important that this cycle not be passed on to the children of the community. "I just don't want my daughter growing up seeing her mom and dad fight," Bruce Williams said. The lecture was sponsored by University Hous- ing, The School of Social Work, The Sexual Assault Prevention and Awareness Center and the Interdisciplinary Research Program on Violence Across the Lifespan.

DEG REES Continued from Page 1A members at the University disagree with the idea behind making fake diplomas. "I wish people would take pride in what they actually accomplish instead of what it looks like they accomplish," said English Prof. Jackie Livesay. LSA sophomore Areej El-Jawahri agreed with Livesay. "It undermines the whole structure of society because peo- ple would be getting jobs that they aren't able to perform," she said. In contrast, the homepage for degrees-r-us.com explains to viewers that these degrees are intended for those who already have skill and prac- tice in a particular area. "Three years experience in a field qualifies you for a degree," it reads. Clicking on the legal information page of this company's website, howev- er, arouses additional concern. It states that the university which it endorses is "a legally organized educational corpo- ration, which is not fully operational at the present time ... It has no campus, neither faculty nor student body. It exists on paper and on the web ..." Under the headline "Formerly Only For the Rich and Famous," this compa- ny justifies its cause by saying that in this democratic time, the privileges that were once awarded to the wealthy are now available to "you" without consid- eration of current economic status. Kerin Borland, senior associate direc- tor of the University's Career Planning and Placement, said there is not much reason for concern over this issue. "In a lot of ways it is clearly a fake," she said. "If a student was asked for supple- mentary information, it would be for an official or an unofficial transcript," Bor- land said. Also, in the recruitment process, applicants are usually inter- viewed and asked for resume materials prior to graduation. Borland added that any individual using fake diplomas would be "put- ting themselves in jeopardy" not only in the short term, but also in the long term, influencing their future as a pro- fessional. Ann Arbor lawyer Aaron Larson shares Borland's perspective on this issue. "I do realize that it is a concern for companies with large numbers of applicants who may not recognize (the dishonesty involved)." But it's less of an issue for smaller companies and "when you are working with the law" "My general opinion on this is the same as with so many other types of fraud through the Internet, such as homework services for small amounts of money and other services to help people commit fraud," said Larson. "My opinion is quite low" "A bought diploma means nothing," Livesay added. "It says something very sad that people care a lot more about appearance than reality." PROPOSAL Continued from Page 1A are just old and poorly designed and need to repaired and replaced," said state Sen. Kenneth Sikkema (R- Grandville), chair of the Senate Nat- ural Resources and Environmental Affairs Committee. "That's what Pro- posal 2 will do over time." If the proposal passes, the state will sell $100 million in bonds each year for 10 years. With the proceeds from the sale, the Department of Treasury will authorize low-interest loans to the michigan c ADVERTISING POSITION AVAILABLE The Michigan Daily is now hiring Account Executives for Winter Term.

According to the non-partisan Senate Fiscal Agency, it will cost each tax- payer $334 over the 30 years, or $11 per year. Some, however, are not sure the state should get involved in the issue. "There are communities that have failed to maintain their sewer systems - which is a core function of govern- ment," said Diane Katz, director of science, environment and technology policy for the Midland-based Mack- inac Center for Public Policy. "What they've done instead is focus on what I'd consider more marginal functions of governments," such as providing for recreational centers. "Sewage overflows are more of an inconvenience than an environmental threat, like when they cause beach closings," Katz said. If the loans are so necessary, she said, the state should not be borrowing money but rather spending money out of its coffers. Additionally, of the funds, 10 per- cent would go to the Strategic Water Quality Initiatives Fund for septic tank improvements. Supporters argue that by fixing the sewer systems, Michigan will water will be made more clean, thus fueling economic development along rivers and lakes and protecting the health of state residents. Dan Farough, political director of the Sierra Club's Michigan branch, said, "Communities need to reclaim these rivers that are being made in many cases undesirable because of combined sewer overflows. We' think the cost of inaction is far more than the cost of some preven- tative medicine." daily TcfryMight Be qiants October 210 Michigan Theaters0 7:30PM 0 All Ages BUSINESS RESEARCH POSITIONS Highly motivated first rate upper-class & grad. students interested in business research.
