laxly sar Heel OPEN EYE FROM PAGE 1 savor the aftertaste. The Learning Series Coffee Classes, offered every fourth Thursday, seek to instill an appre ciation of the brewing process that precedes every cup of coffee. Topics include tasting coffee, brewing coffee, preparing espresso and tea tasting. “We drink a lot of coffee,” said Chapel Hill resident Liz Delong, sitting next to her husband, David. “Some mornings it’s good, and some mornings it’s not, and we wanted to learn how to make sure it’s always good.” Delong and her fellow students sniffed and sloshed it, savoring the smell, taste and body of five vari eties. They were taught to focus on six factors fragrance, aroma, taste, nose, aftertaste and body. And after they familiarize them selves with the different options, coffee enthusiasts should know where to get the right roasts, Conary said. Carrboro Coffee Company roasts batches of beans each morning in the rear of the cafe’s building. “Coffee is so much about time and place,” Conary said. “I just want people to understand the long chain, the hundreds of hands, that touch the coffee from the ground to your cup.” From the farmers to the local baristas, coffee’s journey spans several years before it ever reaches National and World News FROM THE CAMPAIGN TRAIL Obama may end up debating alone LOS ANGELES (LAT-WP) Republican presidential nominee John McCain said Wednesday he would skip a widely anticipated debate. The Democratic candidate Barack Obama said he would show up for the debate as planned. An Obama spokesman indicat ed the Illinois senator would trav el to the debate site in Mississippi, even if McCain does not. The University of Mississippi, host of the forum, issued a state ment declaring their intention to proceed as planned. Economy is focus for Obama in Fla. DUNEDIN, Fla. (MCT) - Betting that the nation’s struggling economy is his ticket to the White House, Democratic president can didate Barack Obama hammered John McCain and Wall Street speculators Wednesday, telling a crowd in Tampa Bay, Fla., that “greed” and “irresponsibility” have threatened the economic stability of the nation. Obama said a Wall Street bail out plan needs to be done quickly, but also done right. He said any strategy must include a bipartisan oversight board.

PUBLIC HEALTH FROM PAGE 1 elsewhere in the world can often be applied locally. “My dream, really, is to have every student who walks in the door of this school for training ... come out really understanding global health as it applies to issues right here in North Carolina and around the world,” Bentley said. China’s first spacewalk a complete success, officials pleased with results BEIJING (LAT-WP) - China carried out a textbook-perfect launch Thursday night with the liftoff ofthree astronauts into space for the country’s third manned spaceflight and first spacewalk. Underscoring the political implications of the mission, a beaming President Hu Jintao con gratulated the astronauts on live television. He called the voyage “another milestone in the Chinese people’s march towards aerospace science.” Scientists make a stem cell advance WASHINGTON, D.C. (LAT WP) Scientists are report ing that they have overcome a major obstacle to using a pos sible alternative to embryonic stem cells. The researchers said they found a safe way to coax adult cells to regress into an embry onic state, alleviating what had been the most Worrisome uncertainty about developing the cells into potential cures.

News MIAMI FROM PAGE 1 been there two times in my life as a coach, and it’s just another road game.” But it was apparent in 2007 that Davis understood the schemes of his former understudy Shannon, as UNC’s running game exploded for 183 yards the season-high for 2007. That game came just as UNC’s rush looked to be foundering, but Davis used misdirection and cut back running to get the aggressive Miami defenders out of position. UNC will have to do more of the same after suffering an injury to starting quarterback T. J. Yates. “This is a time to prove some thing,” halfback Greg Little said Wednesday. “This is a time that we’ve hit some adversity, and you know T. J. has stepped down. “It’s time to show that we can bounce back from a loss and from an injury to a key position.” Davis already has hinted that She pointed to the school’s work on HIV/AIDS, which she said was relevant both in North Carolina and internationally, especially in China and sub-Saharan Africa. Among the school’s other top research priorities are water sani tation, hygiene, nutrition and lead ership development. Contact the University Editor at udesk@unc.edu. China has joined Europe, India and other nations in announcing ambitious new developments in aerospace. Officials were so excited that the New China News Agency posted a story online describing the successful launch hours before the astronauts were in orbit. The smooth takeoff shifted the focus on something other than the food scandals and economic troubles that have dominated news this month. $1.4 billion given to fight Malaria UNITED NATIONS (LAT WP) Buoyed by new data showing malaria rates are falling for the first time in some African nations, philanthropies, interna tional organizations and corpo rations announced Thursday more than $1.4 billion in fund ing to eradicating the disease over the next seven years. The unprecedented level of funding comes as global health leaders convened a summit at the United Nations to unveil a Global Malaria Action Plan. UNC will be looking for those misdirection plays that wreaked havoc with the Miami defense in 2007, especially given the success UNC wideouts have had running reverses in 2008. Brandon Tate and Brooks Foster have rushed 10 times for 186 yards, an average of 18.6 yards per carry. That’s in stark contrast to Tar Heel running backs, who are aver aging a pedestrian 3.8 yards per carry. “You could be really foolish and say ‘We’re going to hand the ball off 27 times, and at the end of the game we’ve got 53 yards,’” Davis said. “Or you could say... “We’re going to fake to that tailback back inside there and we’re going to give it to Brooks and he’s going to run for 57 on the outside.’ “Whet’s the difference? Running yards are running yards.” Contact the Sports Editor at sports@unc.edu. games jS.\ Leve l: HSEB 1 I 1 18 1 1 ~ _5 6 6__3 1_ T r “ 2 ~_9____6 _s._B__ _4_ _5 _3 " |3 4 1 7_ s__ 7| [ I l VANT TO WORK FOR THE DT QT*) DTH AD SWF IS HIRING lilliJi'mANiJ JJ CO If Pick up applications in suite 2409 Carolina Student Union ® THE Daily Crossword 56 Tavern brew 57 Three longs 62 Fabled also-ran 63 Funny Jack of Hollywood 64 End-of-week cry 65 Tan and Smart 66 Huntley and Atkins 67 Camera's eye DOWN 1 Mineral finds 2 Think out loud 3 Three shorts 4 Actor Wallach 5 Robberies 6 Soothing lotion 7 Three shorts 8 Booze, butts, and bul lets bureau 9 Adriatic or Caspian, e.g. 10 Assist a wrongdoer ACROSS 1 Rob or Chad 5 Laugh-track sounds 10 Linkletter and Carney 14 October stone 15 Overjoy 16 10-speed ride 17 Three longs 20 Compass pt. 21 Previously owned 22 Mel of the Giants 23 Hush-hush 25 Sweet-talk 28 Linguistic suffix 31 Mine and thine 32 Arabic Mac 33 Govt, agent 34 Refuse heaps 36 Guitar ridge -37 Learned monkey-style 38 Buffalo's lake 39 Thanksgiving parade 40 Phoenix of Egyptian 41 Queue 45 "Agnus 46 Like-minded vot- ers 47 Satisfied sighs 48 Clenched fin- gers 49 Bacon amount 52 Place for three men? -54 Tenth of MXXX ft ft ft [sHX E |c|a|nHrßi.lal i m^N'n'l'olsFhl r"U"nsa|w|a|y|l|i[ve"s7o llotlevoive ItTn 7* 7 T eMIMIMt hX27 e 111 1.1 1 1 cour t| a Uh|e r and a y Ail ft 4 M U r P R H E Aft ft k in g|o vul e9sTt e w |e|s|s|eHr|e|s|e|wßy|e|a|sl I Want You! for DTH Ad Staff ' motivated • outgoing • organized Bp savvy • mmm® JHr • co-workers • facilitate the buying, selling & production of SSt^B advertisements Iff Pick up an Application: • a paycheck : ) v ' - Suite 2409 in Due FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 26, 2008 TRUSTEES FROM PAGE 1 tion of UNC’s student quality to drop. * “If the perception of the quality of students slips, then enrollment declines drastically,” he said. One way to prevent a decrease in quality is to increase the amount of money the school gives out in merit aid, Hesel said. “Merit aid is the single most important tool in offsetting any negative impacts of growth,” Hesel said, noting that most highly ranked schools are giving more money to high-income students rather than low-income students. “That moves away from a culture at Chapel Hill that’s very admirable, but it’s a competitive fact,” he said. Trustee John Ellison chimed in to say that while he believed no one was outright rejecting the possibility of future growth, the presentation did offer an opportu nity to further examine issues with legislators. tHEfeMURMCf PUZZLES By The Mrpbam Group © 2008 The Mepham Group.

Presenters at the meeting said the University is short about 4 mil lion more square feet to accommo date the increase. Trustees said the growth discus sion strengthens the argument for Carolina North, the planned satel lite-research campus that is likely to be a future home for the law school and other graduate programs. But the board said it would pro ceed with caution from this point, and view the growth discussion skeptically. “My eyes have been opened,” Carter said. “And I’m veiy concerned about the potential pitfalls of this.” Contact the University Editor at udesk@unc.edu.
