American ofhcials said much of the material appeared to be recycled versions of earher documents. U.N. inspectors have said Iraq's earher declarations were incomplete. The United Nations was beginning its own analysis of the mammoth declaration, a process officials say could take weeks. Inspectors stepped up their search Tuesday, fanning across Iraq on surprise missions to 13 sites the largest number of inspections since the U.N. operation resumed two weeks ago.

Dr. Irving Weissman, director of the new Institute for CancerStem Cell Biology and Medicine, said one of his goals is to overcome a shortcoming in most of the embryonic stem cell lines available today. Most stem cells have been taken from embryos created at fertility clinics, and scientists have no specific information about the genes of those people - or of the stem Powell denounced Saddam's claims, saying, "He's a liar." "Well see now whether he decides that the cost of lying is too great. The cost of lying now might result in his regime being destroyed by the armed forces of the interna tional community," he said during a Dec. 5 interview with a French television. December i 1, 2002, THE DAILY HERALD, (www.HarkTheHerald.com), Provo, Ulah materials were neutralized, US. officials said. It was not clear where the ship was registered, a senior administra: tion official said. Officials said the shipment did not appear to be headed for Iraq. However, the senior administration official said that although the ship was headed for Yemen, it was unclear whether it and the missiles on board had another destination beyond that. Yemen has been identified by the United States as a nation that has harbored terrorists, although its government has been an ally of the United States in the war against global terrorism. Yemen's port of Aden was the site of the October 2000 attack on the USS Cole by terrorists, which killed 17 sailors. Yemeni officials contacted late Tuesday said they had no information concerning the ship, its contents or its boarding by cells they produce. Instead, Weissman wants to produce embryonic stem cells that carry specific genetic mutations linked to certain duce these embryonic stem cells. Weissman's preference, he said, would be to conduct a kind of genetic swap on existing stem cells. A stem cell could be stripped of nucleus, which carries its genes. Then, researchers could insert a nucleus from someone known to carry the BRCAl mutation or other genetic flaws. A group in Australia is already trying this technique, Weissman said. But if that method fails, Weissman said he. would not rule out trying a controversial technique that many people One line of stem cells, for example, might contain the BRCAl genetic mutation that has been linked to breast cancer. As the stem cells transform themselves into breast tissue, scientists would track the activity of the faulty gene to glean clues to how cancer arises. Other cells might be created that carry the faulty genes linked to diabetes, Parkinson's disease and other ailments. The trick, Weissman said, is to find the best way to pro international forces. The boarding of the ship occurred as Defense Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld was traveling in the area. It was unclear precisely what missiles were aboard the seized vessel. North Korea has built and exported at least two missiles in the Scud class: the Scud B and the Scud D, or No crew to identify Page A7 the mis- siles as originating in North Korea. Scud B missiles were reduced in large numbers E y the former Soviet Union and ended up in Iraq and North Korea, among other ; nations. The missiles are "" very inaccurate, often break up in flight and have a range of less than 200 ' miles. The Scud D, or No Dong, -missile produced by North Korea is advanced com- - :, pared with the Scud B. It has a range of about 840 -miles and can carry a or chemical Dong.

In the appeal, Esplin and Margaret Lindsey argued rape and attempted rape weren't d necessarily appropriate charges for aggravated assault, Lindsey said. Justice Michael J.

Ldndsey maintained an objection because of the continued potential for lesser charges to be included in jury instructions. "Our concern, from a philosophical standpoint, is that prosecutors can overcharge juveniles to have them tried as adults in district court but then include lesser charges for the jury to consider that if brought initially would have been tried in juvenile court" Lindsey said. "What our client ultimately was convicted of would not have made him eligible to be treated and tried as an adult" In 2001, 4th District Judge Guy Burningham denied a motion to strike the sentence because Housekeeper was 21.
