After a student informed the Yale webmaster team in December that the Aryan Nation's online "Literature Archives" contained the "Old Books" image from Yale's electronic front door, Yale took action. The university informed the Aryan webmaster that using the rsity-owned image violated copylaws. after a brief And right exchange of correspondence, the Aryans removed the image from their pages. The image formerly on the Aryan Nation's pages appeared to be a shrunken version of the "Old Books" image with the lettering removed. Director of Academic Computing Philip Long said the Aryans did not dispute Yale's ownership of the image, but that they did attempt to continue using their version of it. "We sent them a note stating our ownership of copyright," Long said. He added that Yale then received an acknowledgment of ownership from the site and a request for permission NEW HAVEN, Conn I !:!' unive- debate team hosted a debate last weekend.

"In general...permission is not going to be granted," Long said. The University Licensing Office, a part of the University Secretary's d Office, manages the use of images. While Yale and the Aryan Nation spent about two weeks exchanging letters, Yale prepared to begin more serious action against the legally responsible party in case the site's operators refused to remove the attended Yale-owne- Tooele to Park City. Bommer said he's still collecting surveys that residents filled out at the meetings. Envision Utah won't be able to analyze all of the data until spring, he said. "We're going to take surveys until at least the end of January," said Julie "Old Books." prepared to service Internet the site's pursue was not if the University provider able to determine who was responsible for the copyright violation. He added that an ISP can sometimes bear responsibility for flagrant copyright violations on its Long said Yale was Hillman, public awareness manager for the group. More than 8,000 surveys have already been mailed to Envision Utah, and about 4,000 were filled out and submitted over the Internet, Hillman said. Bommer attended the meetings in Layton, Clinton and Park City. People at those meetings talked about how much residents are spending on infrastructure costs and how much land is being consumed, he said. "The affordability issues hit very close to home," Bommer said. Children and grandchildren won't be able to afford to live in some areas given y the cost of lots and homes, planners say. Those who attended the meetings also liked the idea of providing a mixture of options for housing and transportation. "Regardless of where people were on the spectrum, they didn't seem to like the idea of not having a choice," Bommer said. Ryan Davies, partnership manager for Envision Utah, attended meetings in Payson, Orem and Murray, said the element of choice led many of the people at his meetings to favor scenarios C and D over A and B. pages. "It is our belief that the laws clearly hold the Internet service provider liable for content...once the ISP has been made aware of it," he said.

Kruger says this GENES continued from page r Examples of diseases created by gene abnormalities would be that of lupus, siriasis and skin cancer. Not only does gene therapy benefit the diagnosis and treatment of inborn skin diseases, but can help treat skin damage such as burns after genes have already developed. Another project within the grant with Kruger, led by Jcffery R. Morgan, M.D. of Shrincr Burns Institute at Harvard Medical School, has genetically modified a growth factor in cells that stimulates cells to would greatly benefit a burn patient that was in urgent need of skin repair. Kruger says the research on gene therapy of the skin is conducted with human skin cells. These cells are put into an artificial skin matrix and then transplanted into athymic mice, which act as a model to humans. Athymic mice lack a thymus, which is a gland that allows the immune system to develop. Without an immune system, the mice do not reject the transplanted human skin cells. A challenge Kruger and his col leagues face is that transplanted cells undergo selective death and some genes get turned off. Two of Kruger's assistants, Patrick A. Tresco, Ph.D., U assistant professor of bioengineering, and Marta J. Petersen, M.D., U associate professor of dermatology, aim to further define the elements that lead to loss of the genetically modified cells as they are moved from the lab to the the desire to understand the unknown in disease and eased states. in skin," Kruger said. body. Gene therapy also benefits medical students at the U. Kruger says, "the medical residents develop an appreciation from an experimental approach."
