Guest lecturer visits, terrorism discussed Robert Holmes speaks about terrorism with students GINGER JOHNSON STAFF WRITER Terrorism and war are two words that have recently become an issue on the forefront of the American mind. Every aspect of the media from television to magazines has some mention of the words. ECU campus is no different, with Guest lecturer Robert Holmes PHD, speaking on these topics as well as non-violence last week. The premise of his speech was the philoso- phy of a non-violent response to terrorism and the possible outcomes of the proposed attack on. Afghanistan. The country is frozen in repulsion. If we become involved in a land war in the country, I fear that it could become another Vietnam. We must remember that Afghanistan defeated a major nuclear power, said Holmes. At the lecture there was discussion about the passage of a resolution by Congress that gives President Bush a Blank Check to respond militarily in any way he sees fit. According to Holmes, Barbara Lee, congress- woman from California, was the only member of Congress opposed to the resolution. Holmes also warned the audience of the danger of the President making the fight a (above) Firefighters in the World crusade, which Bin Laden™s forces welcome.

Three Palestinians killed, Mideast truce continues JERUSALEM (AP) -Israeli troops shot dead three Palestinians in the West Bank on Sunday, witnesses said, bringing the Palestinian death toll to 18 since the two sides agreed last week to work on firming up a cease-fire. Sunday morning, the Israeli army reported numerous Palestin- ian attacks on its troops over the previous 24 hours, saying there were several injuries, but no fatalities on the Israeli side. With the latest Mideast truce looking shaky, Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat flew to Cairo, Egypt, on Sunday for consultations with Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak, then on to Jordan for a meeting with King Abdullah II. Israeli and Palestinian officials said that according to the agreement between them on Wednesday, the truce was to take effect Friday, with various elements being implemented over the following four days. Right-wingers in the government of Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon said continuing attacks on Israeli soldiers and civilians showed Arafat was not serious about the truce. But Foreign Minister Shimon Peres said there had been some improvement. It™s clear that the suicide bomb- ers and car bombs have stopped, he told Israeli army radio. Still, he acknowledged there have been some very serious incidents. With 18 Palestinians killed and no Israelis over the past five days, Israel opposition leader Yossi Sarid questioned the army™s assertion that soldiers only open fire in response to life-threatening attacks by Palestin- ians. T don™t believe that just by responding we would have reached such fatal results, he said. Palestinian Information Minister Yasser Abed Rabbo said Israel had yet to honor its side of the bargain and start lifting a military blockade of Palestinian towns, villages and roads. Nothing has been implemented yet, said Rabbo. We need to see some actions on the ground, not only words on paper. Israeli Transportation Minister Ephraim Sneh told army radio that closures would be lifted only in places where there are no violent incidents. Palestinian taxi driver Asmi Asm said that in the pre-dawn hours of Sunday, he and other drivers were ferrying laborers from the West Bank city of Nablus to the town of tulkarem, near the border with Israel. The workers then intended to join the thousands of Palestinians who slip into Israel to work illegally. Asm said that about halfway through the journey, near the village of Silat e-Dhar, the convoy came upon a pile of rocks blocking the road. When some of the passengers began dismantling the barrier, Israeli troops concealed in a nearby olive grove opened fire, killing two people and wounding six, he said. The military said it was checking the report. Army radio said that soldiers shot at the vehicles when they failed to stop at a roadblock, which was set up near the spot where an Israeli motorist had been wounded by Palestinian gunfire some hours earlier. In the city of Hebron, Israeli soldiers shot dead a Palestinian plainclothes intelligence officer as he patrolled on foot, Palestinian security sources said. The Israeli army said it was checking the report. In an unusual episode Sunday, Palestinian police in Gaza fired tear gas at Palestinian teen-agers to prevent them from confronting Israeli troops at a border crossing. In the past year of fighting, Palestinian security forces have rarely intervened to keep youths from moving toward Israeli troops. Since Arafat and Peres agreed Wednesday to solidify an informal cease-fire, each side has accused the other of breaking its promises. More security talks were set for Sunday, but both sides said expecta- tions were low. The United States wants an end to the year-old fighting as it tries to win Arab and Muslim support for possible military action against Islamic militants suspected of being behind the terror attacks against New York and Washington earlier this month.

America a victorious, : is as diverse as ever. edie Just hours after the terrorist attacks, anti-war material was being produced throughout the country in hopes of persuading Americans to support other means of retaliation. However, it seems that the overwhelming majority of Americans support military force in the first war of the 218 century. Regardless of your personal preference, Ameri- cans should be commended for their ability to think as individuals. Indeed, we are a melting pot. Though we do not agree on many of the issues conceming the potential, yet inevitable war on terrorism, we can still express ourselves and our beliefs whenever and wherever we please. How American is that? When those men and woman on the flight that crashed in Pennsylvania decided to take a democratic approach to combatting terrorism and vote on whether to attempt to take over the terrorists, there couldn't have been a more American resolution. Perhaps more than anything else, we should all focus on being more American. Instead of being close-minded, remember that we are an open-minded people. We are a diverse people. We are a strong people. We are a victorious people. US.Po.

If you have an opinion in reaction to one of our columns or perhaps in regard to the overall presentation of TEC, please express your view in one of four ways: direct a letter or fax to the editor, email a response to the editor or simply phone in a response. The 18,000 ECU students read our paper on a regular basis.

According to my roommate, he doesn™t consider what he does dealing, because he knows the people and they just exchange favors for each other. At first my roommate wasn™t too concerned when his friend was just selling marijuana, but now he thinks it has escalated to drugs like ecstasy. I told him that he could get into worse trouble with it. Is this true? Signed, Drug Policy Ignorant Dear Drug Policy Ignorant: That is definitely not a good situation, but I™m glad you asked before it™s too late. First, your roommate™s friend is violating Letter J of the student Code of Conduct. Part of the Code states that a student shall refrain from manufacturing, selling, using or possessing narcotics, barbiturates, amphetamines, marijuana, sedatives, tranquilizers, hallucinogens, and/or other known drugs and/or chemicals. It also is a violation of North Carolina state law to possess with intent to sell or deliver; to manufacture; to sell or deliver; or even to possess illegally any controlled substances or paraphernalia. The State created a Drug Schedule that prioritizes the different types of illegal substances. There are six levels of substances, these include (but are not limited to): * Schedule I: Heroin, LSD, Peyote, Mescaline, Psilocybin (shrooms), other hallucinogens, Methaqualone (Quaaludes) and MDMA (Ecstasy) * Scheduleff: Morphine, Demerol, Codeine, Percodan, Percocet, Fentanyl, Dilaudid, Secoal, Nembutal, Cocaine, Amphetamines, Dihy- droetorphine, and other opium and opium extracts and narcotics * Schedule Ill: Certain barbiturates, such as Amobarbitol and Codeine, containing medicine such as Fiorinal #3, Doriden, Tylenol #3, Empirin #3, Codeine-based cough suppressants, such as Tussionex and Hycomine; all anabolic steroids, Rohypnol, Dronabimol, Ketamine in any drug * Schedule [V: Barbiturates; narcotics and stimulants, including Valium, Talwin, Librium, Equanil, Darvon, Darvocet, Placidyl, Tranzene, Serax, lonamin (yellow jackets), GHB, Zaleplon, Modafinil * Schedule V: Compounds that contain very limited amounts of codeine, dihydrocodeine, ethylmorphine, opium, and atropine, such as Terpine, Hydrate with Codeine, Robitussin AC * Schedule VI: Marijuana, THC, Hashish, Hash Oil, Tetrahydrocan- nabinol If the friend is found in possession of and/or selling Schedule I or Il substances, he not only faces criminal charges, he faces an automatic suspension for at least one full semester. If he was found in possession of those drugs again, it is expulsion, no exceptions. If the student is found in possession of Schedule II-VI substances, the sanctions usually will consist of one-year probation, counseling/ treatment ($115 program fee), and possible removal from University Housing. If the friend were found selling or distributing, he™d face suspension for at least one semester. So, yes, by selling ecstasy, the friend will suffer a harsher sanction than if he were to only get caught with marijuana, but even the sanction for marijuana possession is serious. if | were your roommate, I™d try to convince my friend that selling drugs is not a suitable part-time job. It is not only illegal at the state level, but there can be severe consequences through the University as well.

The point total by State was its™ lowest in 15 games under coach Chuck Amato. Behind quarterback Philip Rivers, the Wolfpack had scored 30 or more points in 10 of 14 games prior to Saturday. The Wolfpack was also called for 101 yards in penalties. They were eyeballing the Wolf- pack reai hard, said N.C. State line- backer Levar Fisher.

The defense played well enough for us to win. We should be able to score 17 points. Jeff Reed™s 36-yard field goal with 6:20 left in the third quarter gave the Tar Heels a 10-6 lead. Durant then drove North Carolina 83 yards, capping the six-minute march with a 19-yard scoring pass to a wide open Bailey. Durant found Bailey in the same vicinity early in the first quarter as North Carolina took a lead it never surrendered on its way to beating . the Wolfpack for the eighth time in the last nine meetings. double-double JESSICA JONES STAFF WRITER Tulane and Southern Miss defeated the ECU women™s volleyball team over the weekend. The Green Wave moved past the Pirates in three games with scores of 32-30, 30-24, and 30-20. In game one, Tulane had an early lead of 10-4, but ECU battled hard and came back to tie the game, 15-15. The Lady Pirates kept the competi- tion alive and tied the score eight more times in the first game. The Pirates had back-to-back attack errors ECU led the start of the second game, 10-6, but Tulane put together a 6-2 run to tie the game at 12 points each. The two teams battled back and forth for points until Katie Case, Tulane™s setter, gave the Green Wave a 17-16 lead on a kill. Following Case™s kill, Tulane outscored the Pirates 13-7 for a 30-24 win. During the final game, Tulane jumped to a 10-4 lead. ECU was able to cut the score to 16-13 but was unable to overcome the Green Wave who outscored the Pirates 14-7 to seal the victory. Today was our first taste of what™s it is like to travel in Confer- ence USA, said Head Coach Colleen Farrell. We played slowly today I thought Amanda Rudolph had another solid performance tonight. She played very well for us defen- sively. Rudolph had her fifth doubie- double of the season, collecting11 kills and 14 digs. Junior Robyn Drewes added nine kills and four blocks. Senior Lisa Donovan and fresh- man Jessica Vick directed the Pirate™s offensive attack with 19 and 17 assists, respectively. The team struggled against Southern Miss on Sunday. The Pirates picked up their fourth loss in C-USA action in three games, 30-11, 30-26, and 30-26. Rudolph then recorded her sixth Sophomore Alexis Jones scored five kills on a .400 attack percentage and posted four total blocks. Senior setter Lisa Donovan directed the Pirate attack with 29 assists. However, errors proved to be the Pirates biggest obstacle today. ECU committed 27 attack errors, 12 serving errors and 10 service reception errors -49 total points for the Golden Eagles. ECU left the weekend with a 2-11 record overall, and 0-4 in C-USA. The Pirates continue their travel in Conference USA this week with trips to Marquette and DePaul. This writer can be contacted at sports@theeastcarolinian.com.

(AP) -A game official suffered a major heart attack and coliapsed near midfield in the fourth quarter of the East Carolina- Syracuse game Saturday. 1 didn™t know what was hap- pening, said ECU senior linebacker Greg LeFever. The game was delayed several minutes midway through the quar- ter after back judge Gerry Bram of Conference USA went down. Everybody on our sideline was just hoping and praying that he was going to be okay, said defensive back Brandon Rainer. Syracuse team physician Dr. Irving Raphael said Bram was unconscious and barely breathing on his own when rescue workers raced to his aid. He stopped breathing and had an abnormal heart rate, said Raphael. He required an external defibrillator several times and was given advanced cardiac life sup- port. After Bram was stabilized, he was transported off the field in an ambulance and taken to University Hospital for treat- ment. At 6 p.m., he was in intensive care and breathing with the aid of a machine. Just Do More Than Others. Giving Savings Bonds can make a difference in someone™s future.

Miller tacked on the extra point, and the Pirates were up, 30-29. On the ensuing kick off, ECU elected to try an on-side kick that backfired. After recovering the kick in ECU territory, Syracuse went on a drive that lasted four plays and two minutes, handing the Orangemen the lead. ECU had the ball at mid-field in the fourth quarter, down 37-30, when C-USA back judge Gerry Bram collapsed on the field due to major cardiac arrest. Tt was scary to see a guy fall out on the field like that, said senior linebacker Greg LeFever. Tt was a shock, Rainer said. We pulled together and prayed. It may have slowed us down a little, but that™s how it goes and we needed to make the big plays at that time. Bram received medical attention on the field and was transported to Syracuse University Hospital inten- sive care. Before that happened the momentum was in our favor, said freshman return man Marvin Townes. The vision of him lying on the ground shaking was in my mind for the rest of the game. ECU™s offense returned to the A7 field but was unable to produce. The Pirates saw the Orangemen rush 47 times and collect 108 yards on the ground during the game. What ECU was not expecting was the 18 completions for 312 yards thrown by Nunes. We showed up expecting them to run right at us, LeFever said. We were able to stop the run, but they beat us left handed by using the pass. Junior split end Torey Morris suf- fered a broken foot in the game and will be out for a while. In four games, Morris has eight catches for 192 yards. He has pulled in two passes for touchdowns. ] think we moved one step closer to defining ourselves as a football team, Logan said. The Pirates, 2-2, will travel to Chapel Hill this weekend to face in- state foe North Carolina at Kenan Stadium. They™re just like any other oppo- nent, Townes said. I wasn™t to happy with the way I played in the last game, so I™m going to go up there this weekend and try to do everything I can to help my team get a win. The Tar Heels are coming off of consecutive wins against the ACC™s Florida State and North Carolina State respectively.
