The Michigan Daily - michigandaily.com Monday, October 8, 2012 - 5A The Michigan Daily - michigandailycomMonday, October 8, 2012 - 5A South Korea to obtain longer-distance missiles Agreement with U.S. likely to upset N. Korean officials SEOUL, South Korea (AP) - South Korea will be able to possess longer-range missiles capable of hitting all of North Korea under a new agreement with the United States that is likely to draw an angry response from the North. Under a previous 2001 accord with Washington, South Korea had been barred from deploying ballistic missiles with a range of more than 300 kilometers (186 miles) and a payload of more than 500 kilograms (1,100 pounds) because of concerns about a regional arms race. The restriction has made South Korea's missile capability inferior to that of rival North Korea, and some key militaryinstallations in the North have been out of South Korea's missile range. South Korea announced Sunday that the U.S. accord has been altered to allow the South to have ballistic missiles with a range of up to 800 kilometers (500 miles) to better cope with North Korea's nuclear and missile threats. Under the new agreement, South Korea will continue to limit the payload to 500 kilograms for ballistic missiles with an 800-kilometer range, but it will be able to use heavier payloads for missiles with shorter ranges, senior presidential official Chun Yung- woo told a news conference. The heavier a payload is, the more destructive power it can have. "The most important objective for our government in revising the missile guideline is to contain North Korea's armed provocation," Chun said. The Defense Ministry said in a statement that it will greatly increase its missile capability under the new accord, adding that South Korea will be able to "strike all of North Korea, even from southern areas." President Barack Obama's press secretary Jay Carney, speaking to reporters traveling with Obama to California on Sunday, said "The revisions are of prudent, proportional and specific response" to North Korea). He said they came out of ongoing regular consultations with South Korea on the threat from the North. ADAM R Medical school students Natalie Hoffmann and Mohamad Issa raffle off prizes at the opening of a free clinic or From Page 1A Faith Medical Clinic with her hus- band Mitch, said the partnership has developed to be mutually ben- eficial. "It really is a win-win situation because for the students they're going to get hands on experience and for the people who have no medical insurance are going to get some of the best medical attention in the world," Goldman said. In addition to serving unin- sured individuals in rural Michigan, the clinic also offers invaluable experience for medi- cal students, according to Medi-. cal School student Natalie ' Hoffmann, a student director for the clinic. "There's a peer education component as well, in addition to the student-physician com- ponent," Hoffmann said. "The point of having first and second year medical students is to give them experience with the hos- pital process before they go into the hospital. There was student interest in getting more patient contact up front before their third year." Medical student Moham- ad Issa, a student director of the clinic, said the center has BOOK From Page 1A Nicola's duty to be involved in State of the Book. . "Let's face it. There are only two bookstores left in town," he said. "It's a sad commentary on a town like Ann Arbor ... so, yeah, it's obligatory for us to be involved." Though Michigan may be home to some of the nation's best writers and non-profit writing organizations, the dismal econ- omy has given Michigan a "bad rep" in the past few years, accord- ing to Jeremiah Chamberlin, associate director of the English department's writing program. This overshadows much of the state's achievements in creative writing, Chamberlin said. Citing Detroit's shrinking population as a major topic of national conversation regarding Michigan, Chamberlain said he aims to remind people of Michi- gan's storied literary past, and present. To do that, the list of speakers began earlier in the day with writers just starting out and 1 culminated with masters of the craft. "You've got people at the start of their career to people at the peak of their career," Chamberlin said. The youth and collegiate pre- sentation featured performances from the University's slam poetry INVESTIGATE From Page 1A undergone major changes since the implementation of the free primary care services. He spe- cifically noted that the appoint- ment-only Faith Medical Clinic has begun to accept new unin- sured patients since medical stu- dents became involved, and they have been able to decrease wait- ing times. Issa said that in the pilot phase, students saw patients every other week, at an aver- age of about 6 to 8 patients, and once fully launched will be able to take up to 15 patients at a time. All medical students working in the clinic are there on their own volition. Volunteer medical students conduct an interview with patients and take vitals before the physician consults on the case, and students are com- pletely in charge of the clinic's administration. Issa said the experience has served as a reminder that prac- ticing medicine transcends sci- ence, and is critical in fostering human relationships. "Speaking on a personal level, this has been one of the most influential things that I've been involved in as a student," Issa said. "We go into medicine for the sciences, but also for the humanitarian aspect ... This serves to remind me and as an opportunity to remind alot of my classmates why we go into medi- cine and why we do what we do." The Student-Run Free Clinic is looking to expand its services beyond primary health services for the uninsured Conjeevaram said. He noted that the clinic specifically hopes to integrate women's health services, includ- ing pap smears and mammogra- phy, as well as colonoscopies and dental hygiene. "We're trying to go beyond the just usual care we provide when they come in, we are very much interested in health prevention," Conjeevaram said. " Administrators have also expressed that they want the center to become more of a long- term primary care facility, but Williams said he is proud of the progress and success thus far of an idea that was conceived just two years ago by five medical students. "We hope to make a long term presence in the Pinckney com- munity and to put down roots here through the student-run free clinic," Williams said. "Then we'll just see what spins off over time." MICHIGAN From Page 1A to the Rose Bowl." To avoid that loss, the rules are different this year. The Wolverines' offense just needs to be smart. On Saturday, offen- sive coordinator Al Borges let Denard be Denard. Gone were the wild throws downfield. They were replaced by a heavier dose of run and rendered moot by a few throw aways. Gone, too, was the constant pressure that foes such as Notre Dame and Ala- bama had created. See, in this conference, offenses don't need to be as flashy. Here an offense that limits mistakes and a defense that attacks can wait for something good to hap- pen. On Saturday, it happened three times. The first gift was a ball tipped off a Purdue receiver's hands and into those of sophomore cornerback Raymon Taylor. Taylor sped 63 yards the other way for Michigan's third score, a touchdown so easy that it was a something "I could've done," joked Michigan coach Brady Hoke. The second gift, again unforced but pounced upon by an aggres- sive Michigan defense, was on the ensuing kickoff. Purdue returner Akeem Hunt just dropped the ball, and sopho- more cornerback Delonte Hol- lowell just scooped it up. The drive stalled when redshirt junior kicker Brendan Gibbons missed a 44-yarder into the wind. Two weeks ago, in a hos- tile Notre Dame stadium, Gib- bons's miss would be crippling. But here, it was a blip. It didn't matter. Michigan already led by three touchdowns. In the fourth quarter, another interception fell from the sky like a leftover raindrop from last night's showers. Again, it was a ball tipped off a receiver. This time, redshirt junior safety Thomas Gordon was there. By then, the Wolverines led by three scores with nine minutes left, and Michigan had locked up a victory against one of the Big Ten's better opponents. It's a conference as wide-open and ordinary as ever. On a day when Michigan State, the Wolverines' likely chal- lenger for the Legends' Division title, eked out a victory over lowly Indiana, Michigan ran off the field fresh. Freshman Dennis Norfleet ran off singing to himself. Senior defensive end Craig Roh jogged off and laughed with a team- mate. Athletic Director Dave Brandon ran off with a grin, then pointed at someone and pumped his fist. Afterward, howls filled the musty air outside the Michigan locker room. The victory yells and off-pitch singing echoed toward the podium where Brady Hoke was speaking. "There's a lot of noise back there," the Michigan coach said. The victory's cries were jarring and new and beautiful. Sounds like Big Ten football. team, Detroit's InsideOut Liter- ary Arts Project and the Neutralt Zone's VOLUME Youth Poetry Project.

Among other events, a panel on the future of literary journal- ism included four journalists and authors who discussed the direc- tion journalism is headed in and how to seek out opportunities to further journalism. "I enjoyed hearing about how journalism is changing and about their work," said LSA Junior Michael Nevitt. "About the dif- ferent opportunities in the field that these authors have been able to pursue." Though the event lasted for its scheduled hour, Nevitt said there was a lot more to discuss. "There should have been something where prospective journalists and people interest- ed in the field would go to hear information," he said. "It turned into the writers and the authors talking up their work. It's rel- evant, but it took over too much of the time." Despite the desire for more, the panel was insightful and gar- occur on University property., Therefore, the case has been transferred to the Ann Arbor Police Department for further nered a large crowd, with people taking notes and jotting down thoughts, Nevitt said. The main attraction, the key- note discussion with Baxter and Levine, was more of a conversa- tion in which the two authors discussed their lives and futures. "I really became a writer in many ways by hearing Charlie Baxter read when I was 15 in high school," Chamberlin said of the conversation. "I had a trans- portive experience listening to him read, I thought to myself, 'Wow, I want to be a writer, and I want to go to school wherever he's teaching.'" Despite the packed auditori- um, the two managed to execute their conversation well, telling jokes and anecdotes that left the crowd feeling like they've witnessed a sincere discussion between friends, Chamberlin said. Dwayne Hayes, managing editor of the literary journal "Absinthe," said the State of the Book was as much about celebrat- ing the literature being published as it is about raising awareness. Hayes said that people in Michi- gan are unaware of the impact Michigan literature has on the rest of the country. "Writers across the U.S. know what's going on in Michigan (with writing)," Hayes added. "For me, this was about celebrat- ing the diversity of publishing in this state." investigation.
