Antarctic waters are warmer, more acidic

BY SYDNEY JONES @sydney_jones21

New research by University of Arizona geoscientists has shown a reduction in the amount of oxygen in Antarctic waters, making it warmer and more acidic. The change in the Southern Ocean is caused by the increased freshwater from melting Antarctic ice sheets along with increased wind.

Joellen Russell, co-author of the research paper, is a professor of biogeochemical dynamics at the UA and a Thomas R. Brown Distinguished Chair of Integrative Science. She worked extensively as a researcher to study Antarctic waters and build climate models.

“The question is, how do you do oceanography from the desert?” Russell said. “The answer is supercomputers and robot floats. Seriously.”

Russell said she, her team and two graduate students deployed robot floats to do profiles on the ocean water from 2000 meters down. She said the floats last five years and help collect data for analysis.

“We’ve got this unprecedented, revolutionary look at how the ocean is changing,” Russell said.

Russell said robot floats have helped researchers compare data from 2014 to data taken from ships up to 50 years ago.

“These are serious and significant trends,” Russell said.

First author Ben Bronselaer said he became interested in the Southern Ocean’s climate models when he was a postdoctoral research associate in Russell’s lab. He is now working as a meteorological and oceanographic engineer at the British multinational oil and gas company BP in London.

“It has a mysterious quality to it because it’s one of the biggest oceans in the world,” Bronselaer said.

Bronselaer said the oceans around Antarctica have been badly sampled in the past due to its remote location.

“That’s one aspect that makes it a bit unique I think,” Bronselaer said.

“In the winter, it can have really harsh conditions and not many people go out there and measure things.”

Not only did scientists have to collect and compare the data from the ocean, but also create models to estimate how the changes in warmth and acidity may affect climate change over time.

“The idea now is to really investigate how well we can simulate what’s going on there because even with the estimations that we had in the paper, we weren’t really able to reconstruct the same kind of changes that we’re seeing,” Bronselaer said.

According to Bronselaer, the warming the team observed was especially difficult to replicate because it was much larger than what was able to be simulated in the model. He said the next step is “using more modern models that

better resolve coastal dynamics.”

“The aim is really to be able to fully explain those changes and be able to simulate them,” Bronselaer said.

Thanks to the work of Russell and her team of researchers, they were able to construct models that can simulate changes in the ocean.

“It improved the model so much that we were actually able to simulate the change in the oxygen and the change

in the acidity with the model very, very well,” Russell said. “That made us pretty excited about pushing it forward into the future to see what might happen next.”

Now, she said they have a first look at how the ocean is changing and an estimate of how it may change in the future through the use of their climate models.

Russell said she is “very proud of this work.”

ARTS & LIFE | PHOTO EXHIBIT

Reviving the legendary photos of Edward Curtis

BY SUNDAY HOLLAND @sunday_holland

Featuring painted replicas of a famous photographer’s Native American portraits, the “Edward Curtis Legends Exhibition” held its reception at Studio ONE: A Space for Art and Activism on Friday, Jan. 31.

Edward S. Curtis was a photographer who captured depictions of over 70 indigenous tribes across the United States from 1900 to 1930, according to the Smithsonian Institution’s website.

He created 20 volumes of work about the tribes and took over 40,000 photographs.

Roger Pike, from Alaska, has been involved in the art world for 50 years and is the founder of “Edward Curtis Legends Exhibition.” Through this project, he hired artist Ana Grigorjev to digitally paint the Curtis photographs. So far, she has recreated 65 and has been commissioned to paint the entire collection.

“The original Curtis work is expensive, so we sell the prints of [Grigorjev’s] paintings for affordable prices and take the art on tours so that it is more accessible to everyone,” Pike said. “This project is important because it shows the existence of a beautiful culture — of a people. I just want to give something back.”

Augustine Lopez, the new curator of Studio ONE, deeply connected with and was inspired by Curtis’ work when he first saw it. So when he discovered

the Edward Curtis Legends project and met Pike, the two began planning collaborations on future art projects.

“I’m Native American, of the Yoeme people,” Lopez said. “Our race, heritage and traditions are being forgotten; languages are being lost. That’s why Curtis’ work is so important. [Pike] is reproducing these photos in order to give them back to the people.”

Lee Butz, an attendee of the art reception, has seen the original works

by Curtis in other galleries before.

“I’m an American Indian,” Butz said. “It makes me proud to see these paintings on the wall. I’m grateful that someone has brought this work to the public, because we’re basically invisible, left out.”

Richard Calling Eagle, a retired art dealer and set designer in Arizona, also attended the reception.

“Through this art, we can see the world through the eyes of a conquered people,” Calling Eagle said. “It stirs me to the soul to see such powerful photos of my ancestors.”

The show, which features both original Curtis photographs and Grigorjev reproductions, will be open to the public for free until March 1.

“This subject matter is something that all should see,” Pike said. “These portraits of a culture before it was desecrated give a whole different insight, we need to respect one another.”

OPINION | SUPPORT LOCAL

Small, local businesses need our aid

BY MIKAYLA BALMACEDA

@DailyWildcat

W

e see it on social media all the time: smaller and local businesses going viral and emphasizing the importance of getting locals’ support.

But why is it so important to support these kinds of businesses? What are the actual benefits?

There are many benefits to supporting your small, local businesses. According to Entrepreneur, when consumers buy locally, significantly more of that money stays within the community, improving the local economy.

More often than not, local business owners are incentivized to support other local businesses, “patronizing local establishments for both business and personal reasons.” Larger chain businesses tend to get their supplies from corporate and are not personally invested in buying locally.

There are also environmental benefits to supporting smaller local businesses. According

to ShopKeep, pedestrian-friendly town centers clustered near residential areas may reduce automobile use and traffic congestion. This can result in better air quality and less urban sprawl.

These walkable town centers are referred to as "smart growth places" in a research report by the United States Environmental Protection Agency.

The report said "business that locate in smart growth places can help protect environmental resources — for example, by reducing air pollution from vehicles by encouraging walking, bicycling, or taking transit; building more compactly to protect ecologically sensitive land; or incorporating natural ways of collecting and filtering stormwater runoff.”

Also according to this report, these smart growth places deliver significant economic advantages to businesses, like increasing productivity and innovation, improving ability to compete for labor and creating stronger retail sales.

According to ShopKeep, local shops require fewer public services and less infrastructure compared to shopping malls and chain stores. The process of opening a shop is not as demanding on the city planning department the way building a new department store would be.

But above all, these businesses give your community personality.

Local business is what differs your town from everywhere else in the world. For Tucson, that community personality is shown through Fourth Avenue.

According to Visit Tucson, Fourth Avenue — which Tucsonans call “Fourth” — “was hip back when most hipsters we know were still in diapers.” Fourth is where you find “local artisans and boutiques offering curated selections of vintage clothing, jewelry, furniture, artwork, antiques, handcrafted and imported wares, hardto-find books and anything else you might want to go digging for.”

KGUN 9 On Your Side described Fourth Avenue as “a window into Tucson's personality.”

Fourth Avenue is something special to Tucson.

It showcases quirky character through its shops and restaurants that “thrive to be unique reflections of Tucson.”

According to Patch, Arizona is ranked sixth in the nation when it comes to lending funds to small business owners. This report also shows a 25% rise in the number of granted small business loans and a 45% higher demand for Arizona loans, both compared to the third quarter of 2019.

These loans were mostly taken out by owners of retail, restaurant, construction and manufacturing enterprises, according to Patch.

But with being a small business, it is a lot

easier to run into financial issues and harder to stay open.

Some of the small businesses along Tucson’s precious Fourth Avenue are being run out due to rising rent and property values with the new construction being done.

According to the Arizona Daily Star, Irene’s Holy Donuts is closing next month on Feb. 24. The owner, Irene Heiman, said rising rents were part of this decision. It was always agreed the rent would rise to market rates, which in this case is $14,000 dollars, doubling the original monthly rent.

Irene’s Holy Donuts' Tucson location was opened in March 2019 by Heiman and her husband Stephen.

With rising rents pushing smaller businesses out, opportunities for larger chains to move in are created, which would change the ecosystem of the community.

So go on out and check out your small, local businesses. Supporting these businesses ensures that the uniqueness they give stays within our community. Keep your community's personality alive!

AARI MCDONALD 2 SIGNS to her teammates about the next play.

How Arizona women’s basketball became the hottest sport on campus

BY JACOB MENNUTI @jacob_mennuti

This time last year the Arizona Wildcats had just lost their sixth conference game of the season with its tournament hopes slowly dwindling away. Now, just one year later, Arizona women’s basketball is having one of its best seasons in recent history, ranking No. 12 in the country with an 18-3 record and 7-3 in conference play.

Arizona has not been to the NCAA tournament since 2005, but that wasn’t the last time the Wildcats saw postseason action. The University of Arizona hosted and won the Women’s National Invitation Tournament Championship last season and played in front of a sellout crowd of 14,644 fans in the final game, turning the program on its head and putting the women’s basketball team on the map. That, of course, was the start of something bigger.

The Arizona Wildcats opened up the 2019-20 season 14-0, including a road win over rival ASU. Point-guard

Aari McDonald and forward Cate Reese combined for 37 points in the 58-53 win, but nobody had taken them seriously yet.

Then, on Jan. 24, Arizona would do it again in front of 10,160 fans in McKale Center and defeat then-No. 16 ASU. But still, Arizona women’s basketball was not seen as a legitimate threat to compete in the postseason.

Then there was last Friday. The Arizona Wildcats returned home after sweeping their weekend series against the Washington schools. The matchup against the formerly No. 8 UCLA Bruins was made out to be one of the most important games of the season for the Wildcats. Arizona did not shy away from the competition as the squad ran UCLA out of the arena in a 92-66 statement win. McDonald led the charge by scoring 27 points and 5 rebounds. Junior Sam Thomas also had an outstanding game, going flawless from beyond the arc by hitting four 3-pointers for 12 of her 20 points on the night, giving Arizona its first win against a top-10 team since 2004.

“That was really big,” McDonald said

following the win on Friday. “That was just a testament to where this program is and where it’s headed. We were due for a top-10 win, and the sky is the limit for us.”

The team now sits comfortably in the tournament projections after finishing the weekend with a win over USC. The NCAA Division I Women’s Basketball Committee gave us its first projected top-16 teams for the 2020 NCAA tournament. Arizona checked in at No. 13, making them a No. 4 seed in the tournament. This would also mean the Wildcats would host their first NCAA tournament game since 1998.

“If we can draw over 5,000 people on Super Bowl Sunday, it says a lot about women’s basketball,” said head coach Adia Barnes. “I think if there was ever a chance to host or something, we would sell out McKale, no doubt.”

This is Barnes’ fourth year as Arizona’s head coach after serving as an assistant coach at the University of Washington for five seasons. Barnes is a UA alumna and is also the leading scorer in Arizona women’s basketball history. Her passion for the school

runs deep, and her mentality of transforming the team into a winning program has trickled down to the players.

“I think we all came here wanting to change this program around and keep leaving our mark,” senior Dominique McBryde said. “That’s our brand — ‘Leaving a legacy’ — so I think we’re doing a good job of that. We really want to leave our mark, not just from the WNIT but to keep going.”

The expectations for the team are starting to change, with word finally spreading outside of Tucson about how good this team is. Despite the outside noise, Barnes still believes the team is in a good spot this season.

“I think we’re in a good situation. We control our own destiny,” Barnes said.

“Next week we have nothing to lose, I just told the players. We go to Oregon, we’re not supposed to win at Oregon. If we got a sweep, it’s incredible. If we got a split, it’s incredible. If we didn’t, it’s not the end of the world. We’re still in a good situation.”

New research shows blue light’s use on brain injuries

BY AMIT SYAL @ASay21

In the age of technology, almost everybody is exposed to blue light on a daily basis. In fact, the phone, computer or tablet you may be reading this story on is emanating blue light without you even realizing it.

Often times blue light gets a bad reputation because of the way its wavelength affects human circadian rhythms. Blue light inhibits the release of melatonin, the primary hormone responsible for regulating the sleep/wake cycle in humans.

William D. “Scott” Killgore, Ph.D. a psychiatry professor at the University of Arizona’s College of Medicine — Tucson, is the lead author on a new study that indicates timely blue light exposure can help patients who have suffered minor traumatic brain injuries (mTBI).

An mTBI occurs when a person experiences a physical force that causes damage to the brain on a microscopic level, leading to a brief alternation of consciousness, according to Killgore.

“Typically this occurs through a physical impact to the head, a rapid rotation of the head or a shock wave to the soft tissue of the body that increases blood pressure to the brain, leading to microscopic bursting of blood vessels in the brain,” Killgore said.

After experiencing an mTBI, patients often struggle with maintaining a proper sleep schedule. However, after the brain goes through a traumatic experience, sleep is absolutely essential for the recovery process.

“Sleep helps clean out neurotoxins in the brain and it is important for facilitating the growth of oligodendrocyte precursor cells, which are critical for the formation and repair of the myelin sheath that surrounds axons. In short, sleep is necessary for recovery,” Killgore said.

Currently, there are few known treatments for mTBIs. The majority of the recovery process simply includes resting until the patient starts to feel better.

Fortunately, for most people who suffer an mTBI, the symptoms do not last very long. However, a small percentage of those patients will suffer lingering symptoms, including difficulty concentrating, headaches or mood changes.

“The main treatment is rest and recovery,” said Johnny Vanuk, a graduate research associate in Killgore’s lab. “Depending on how different symptoms persist, individuals may need to engage in various forms of therapy to address difficulties that can inhibit speech or motor production.”

Killgore and his team examined different colors (wavelengths) of light to see how they affect the recovery process from an injury.

The participants in the study underwent a baseline assessment using cognitive assessments and brain scans.

They were then randomly assigned to take home a certain light box which had different colors of light-emitting diodes. The participants exposed themselves to the light from the box every morning for 30 minutes for six weeks.

After that time, they came back for a follow-up assessment.

“For people with mTBI, we found that daily morning use of blue light led to a shift in their normal daily rhythm of sleep and wake,” Killgore said. “Overall, by the end of the study, the participants who used the blue light were falling asleep about an hour earlier each night and waking an hour earlier each morning.”

These patients had decreased daytime sleepiness, improved problem solving ability and significant changes in several important systems within the brain, which could suggest that they were healing faster from their injuries.

The majority of people tend to give blue light a negative connotation simply because

KILLGORE IS CURRENTLY DOING research on how blue light therapy could help resolve traumatic brain injuries.

of a lack of knowledge about the topic. Blue light in and of itself is not harmful to human circadian rhythms. However, the timing of blue light exposure is the important factor about how it will affect you.

If a person is exposed to blue light in the morning, then it will inhibit their melatonin production, leading to a more alert state during the day and an easier ability to fall asleep at night.

However, if exposed to blue light at night, then it will inhibit melatonin production at a time when melatonin is necessary to fall asleep. This will cause the person to fall asleep at a later time than if they were not exposed to blue light, according to Killgore.

“Blue light administered in the morning can be highly beneficial and improve sleep,” Vanuk said. “For example, a shift worker that sleeps during the day and stays awake through the night will get the beneficial effects from blue light exposure we capitalize on during the evening rather than

the morning.”

Killgore’s study has great implications for millions of patients each year who suffer a minor traumatic brain injury.

“There are currently no established effective non-pharmacological treatments for mTBI, so this provides a possible adjunctive treatment that might be used in conjunction with other approaches to help people recover faster,” Killgore said.

“Since this is the first study of its kind, more research is necessary before specific treatment recommendations can be made, but it suggest a possible new avenue for using sleep to help recovery.”

OPINION | ARIZONA SUPREME COURT

Court rules father’s favor in embryo case

BY CHUCK VALADEZ @DailyWildcat

A

recent decision of the Arizona Supreme Court has overturned the ruling of an appeals court barring Ruby Torres from using eggs she had fertilized with her exhusband John Joseph Terrell.

In 2014, Torres had her eggs fertilized by Terrell before undergoing cancer treatment.

The decision to fertilize the eggs came after Torres’ doctor had disclosed the treatment might leave Torres infertile. Terrell, who was Torres’ boyfriend at the time, ultimately agreed to participate in the in vitro fertilization process.

A month into the process, the couple signed a contract noting the embryos were to be joint property of the couple. The contract disclosed in the case of the couple splitting up the embryos may be donated or for the use of either party. For any of these actions to take place, however, the contract stated there had to be “express, written consent of both parties.”

Four days after signing the contract, Torres and Terrell married. The IVF had produced seven viable embryos, and Torres was left infertile due to her cancer treatments. Three years later, they divorced.

Torres later asked Terrell’s consent to use the embryos, which Terrell denied. Terrell’s lawyer stated Torres was looking to “force” Terrell to become a father, making him legally obligated to pay child support under the Arizona law at the time. Torres’ attorney rebutted the argument stating Torres was looking to remarry and her fiancé would legally adopt the child, and Torres would agree to not hold Terrell financially liable.

Despite all of this, Terrell continued to deny Torres access to the embryos.

The Maricopa County Superior Court ruled against Torres and said the embryos must be donated. They stated Terrell’s right to not want to be a father overrode Torres’ right to want to be a mother. Later the Court of Appeals overturned this decision.

In light of all this, the State of Arizona passed a law covering these situations in 2018. The law states that the mother has legal rights to the embryo; however, the father is no longer financially responsible if the mother uses the embryos. This law is not retroactive and thus means it cannot be applied to the case of Torres.

The Arizona Supreme Court overruled the appeals court’s decision, siding with the initial ruling this past Thursday. The court cited the initial contract between the couple before

undergoing the IVF process, and since both parties cannot agree on the use of the embryos, Torres cannot use the embryos. The court ruled the embryos are to be donated to a third party.

Justice Ann Scott Timmer noted she was aware of the “unavoidable emotional fallout” in this situation, but “the family court was required to enforce the parties’ chosen disposition of the embryos as set forth in the agreement.”

Though were these the agreed upon terms?

The contract gives two options of what to do with the embryos, and both parties must agree — which is not something they have done.

This was the finding of the Maricopa court that stated the “Embryo Cryopreservation & Embryo Disposition” agreement entered into by the parties did not resolve whether either party should get the embryos or whether they should be donated.”

The Arizona Supreme Court did use a specific section of the agreement that ultimately lead to their decision. A note in paragraph 10 reads “[embroys] cannot be used to produce pregnancy against the wishes of the partner. For example, in the event of a separation or divorce, embryos cannot be used to cause pregnancy without the express, written consent of both parties, even if donor gametes were used to produce the embryos”.

Though they cannot unanimously agree on whether to donate the embryos or allow Torres to use them, paragraph 10 cited by the court does lay out that a pregnancy cannot be caused if both parties do not agree. So, despite Torres not wanting to donate the embryos, she cannot legally use them to become pregnant herself since Terrell does not agree. Meaning there are only two options of what to do with the embryos according to paragraph 10; discarding the embryos or donating them. Since neither Terrell nor Torres wanted the embryos discarded, the court felt they were compelled to force the donation of the embryos.

Personally, I do not agree with the decision.

Paragraph 10 does say the embryos cannot be used to cause pregnancy, but there is no reason for the court to rule in favor of compulsory donation. I believe the middle ground is discarding the embryos, simply because it is uncertain whether or not Torres would like the embryos to be donated. It is truly sad Torres will not be able to become a biological mother because of a situation like this, but there are plenty of children needing homes that are available for adoption. Torres still has the ability to make a difference in a child’s life and raise a good family.

Stone Gettings could land starting spot on court

Over the course of an entire college basketball season many things change.

Sometimes there are injuries and players miss time, other times players may get an increased role because they gain confidence and start making shots.

In the case of Chase Jeter and Stone Gettings, both factors come into play.

Jeter has been Arizona’s starting center since last year and brings something the freshmen and transfers on the team are still learning — conference experience.

But Jeter has been dealing with back spasms since returning from the Oregon trip, making way for Gettings to get his chance in the starting lineup.

Gettings has started every game since Jeter has been out, and the 6-foot-9 forward has the ability to play in the paint and step out from three. This has also made room for Zeke Nnaji to move to the five spot and have more room underneath the basket.

With Gettings able to become a perimeter and threat, Nnaji has been able to have more one-on-one contests under the rim, and if he gets double-teamed, he can kick out to anyone for a look.

Whenever there’s a starting lineup change, however, it can take some time for the team to get acclimated and running at full speed. Luckily for Gettings and Arizona this change happened when the Wildcats were at home. Gettings had 7 points against Utah in 29 minutes.

The game against Colorado saw Ira Lee have one of his best games this year with 6 points and 7 rebounds, and when he came out for the final time, his name was being chanted throughout McKale Center. Gettings, however, only saw him play 15 minutes and only score three points on one shot, and Miller mentioned after the game how he needs to get used to playing starters minutes and that he will settle into his role and do better.

When the Wildcats then went on the road to face ASU, it was more of the same from Gettings and Lee, who combined for 14 points and 7 rebounds. At this point it looked like Miller had found his

replacement for Jeter until he was back at 100 percent.

Then Arizona travelled to the Pacific Northwest to take on Washington and Washington St. Earlier that week, and Miller said that Jeter was “still learning how to practice again.” This made way for Gettings to get his fourth-straight start.

Gettings tied for his previous season high in points with 13 and also added 3 rebounds in 23 minutes. But it wasn’t until the game against WSU where he really shined.

He finished with his first doubledouble in an Arizona jersey with 19 points and 12 rebounds in only 25 minutes. The surprising part about Gettings’ 19 points is that he only made 2 3-pointers and 1 free-throw, which means the other 12 points came ainside the paint.

“He’s a little bit better around the basket than he’s given credit for,” Miller said. “When you see a skilled player like him, you think about 3-point shooting and being able to space the court, which he does, but he’s always been able to score close to the basket better than he’s given credit for.”

It’s no secret how tough it’s been to play on the road this year in the Pac12, but Arizona finally got the first road sweep this season from any conference team. And it was without Jeter.

In fact, during conference play Jeter had been struggling already. He had already seen his minutes decrease from more than half the game to just 18 minutes against ASU and Oregon State and then only 12 against Oregon. In those games he only scored a combined 14 points.

Jeter has been available to play and did get in the game against Washington but for only two minutes. Miller hasn’t given another update on Jeter since the Washington trip, but it looks like he could be ready this upcoming weekend against the Los Angeles schools.

Miller will probably wait until Jeter is 100 percent ready before he sees an increase in minutes, but it will still be interesting to see whether Jeter makes it back to the starting lineup with how well Gettings had been playing.

ARTS & LIFE | AROUND THE CORNER

The Chicago Music Store: 101 years of service

BY CAPRI FAIN @arden05631231

A historic building in Downtown Tucson — whose empty windows span nearly a block of empty storefronts — still boldly presents its bright yellow lettering to Congress street.

This vacant space held the oldest music store in the city. However, just around the corner the Chicago Music Store’s downtown location now lies in a much smaller storefront.

The Chicago Music Store is a local staple that, according to its website, has been around since 1919, celebrating 101 years of existence.

The store’s main function of serving the community, namely schools, through instrument sales, rentals and lessons has allowed it to survive through four downtown locations and a few others around town.

Currently, the store has two locations.

Store owner Mark Levkowitz is the third-generation owner of the family business, originally founded by his grandmother, Clara Levkowitz, who named the store in honor of her hometown of Chicago. Once simply called the Chicago Store, the store gradually evolved from selling “everything under the sun” to becoming the established music store it is today, according to the store’s website.

The store moved from its most iconic location on 130 E. Congress St. in February of 2016, where it had been since 1967. According to Mark Levkowitz, that location and other closed locations were abandoned because of a “lack of business.”

“We could fill it, but it was just way too big for us, more space than we needed,” Levkowitz said.

The current store is narrow, with soft and clear light filling the space.

Instruments line every wall. Andres Pastor, a local guitar player and songwriter, began working at the music store after casually helping to rent out instruments.

According to Pastor, music is almost always playing in the store. At times, the sound is not just coming from the speakers. Customers testing out instruments permeates the room with the sound of music.

In essence, Levkowitz sees the store’s existence as a way to “help people

enjoy music.”

The consensus among employees is that the community is what makes the store great.

Chicago Music Store employee Moses Gonzales, a local guitarist and songwriter, mentioned that he and his coworkers try to get to know their customers and make relationships more than “just getting down to business.”

As Gonzales put it, salespeople often pressure customers into buying merchandise just to make the sale, but employees at the Chicago Music Store try to avoid that attitude.

According to Evan Suares, an

employee, everyone is dedicated to “making sure [customers] have a fun experience.”

Suares said the store focuses on helping people by maintaining a broad knowledge of the instruments they take care of and sharing that with their customers rather than treating interactions purely as business. Being a source of knowledge and expertise as well as a storefront is key.

The store especially seeks to share musical knowledge with students.

To that end, Levkowitz stressed the importance of music education in schools, referencing studies that show kids who play music tend to get better

grades and improve a number of skills, including social skills.

In fact, the store’s status as a music emporium began with music education, way back when Levkowitz’s uncle joined the high school band.

“A lot of the band parents started asking my grandmother to procure musical instruments for them,” Levkowitz said.

The store began to specialize in musical instruments and moved away from a general goods focus. Over time, this led to increased work with students through rentals and lessons, making support for music education one of

the store’s main concerns throughout its lifetime.

Support like that of the Chicago Music Store seems to have paid off, according to Levkowitz.

“I think right now music education is strong in the state,” Levkowitz said.

The history of the Chicago Music Store is a testament to how interwoven it has become with the Tucson community. Businesses come and go like seasons — especially in Downtown Tucson — but the culture of the store has remained uniquely Tucsonan for the past 101 years.

The downtown location sits beneath a bright red awning on 45 S. Sixth Ave. You can’t miss it. The east side store can be found at 5646 E. Speedway Blvd.

ARTS & LIFE | CLUB SPOTLIGHT

Waltz into February with Wildcat Dancesport Most students probably haven’t considered ballroom dancing as a party to attend, but the official University of Arizona ballroom dance club is here to change their minds

BY ISABELLA BARRON @bellambarron

Wildcat Dancesport has been waltzing around as the official ballroom dance club at the University of Arizona for over 20 years and serves as one of the university’s most unique way of making friends, according to club president Brenna Hall.

The club held its most recent showcase on Feb. 1, where dancers got the chance to show off their skills to everyone in attendance and hoped to gain some more attention from students who may want to join.

“Ballroom is inherently a social dance; you have to dance with other people,” Hall said. “You get a chance to meet a lot of different, fun people who are all interested in the same thing.”

Hall has been in the club for five years. She graduated from the UA with a bachelor’s degree in ecology and evolutionary biology and is currently studying for her master’s degree in epidemiology at the UA. Hall said that she became interested in the club because of her interest in dance and desire to be more social and meet new people.

“Sometimes in college things get really busy, so it’s a great way to be both active and social,” Hall said. “It’s also a good way to take a break from studying for a bit.”

Wildcat Dancesport focuses on two genres of ballroom dance: American Smooth, which includes the waltz, tango, foxtrot and Viennese waltz, and international Latin, which consists of the cha cha, rumba, paso doble, samba and jive.

The club has two different levels of dancers: beginners, and intermediate and advanced. Beginners are taught lessons by the more experienced dancers in the intermediate and advanced level, while dancers in the intermediate and advanced level are taught by a professional instructor.

“We welcome everyone from any level of experience,” Hall said. “Whether they have danced ballroom before or even if they’ve never danced a day in their life.”

The club is not exclusive to current students. Some members, like Athena Simmons, are alumni that just couldn’t step off the dance floor after college.

Simmons has been a member of Wildcat Dancesport for 10 years now.

She graduated from the UA in 2015 with a degree in psychology and now works at a physical therapy office. Simmons said that since non-students are able to be in the club, she has been able to remain a member.

“I love this club with all my heart for a reason, I just wanna see it prosper,” Simmons said. “It’s been a part of my life for these past 10 years and I’ve enjoyed every moment of it.”

Simmons said that although she has been in the club for many years, she is still constantly learning and working hard.

“There’s always something to improve upon,” Simmons said. “Dance teaches you how to persevere. You definitely learn about yourself.”

UA junior Jessica Guise, a physiology major, has been a member of the club for two years. According to Guise, she truly began dancing through the club.

She said her mother is a ballroom dance teacher and encouraged her to join while in college.

As a freshman, Guise said she was “lonely and not very outgoing.” But through Wildcat Dancesport, she met new friends.

She found “getting to be more social in college and actually being involved in something” refreshing. According to Guise, the club serves as a creative outlet for a lot of science, technology, engineering and math majors like herself who might have otherwise struggled to find one.

“It feels really great to have a connection with another person when you dance,” Guise said. “I think you can

express your creativity, meet new friends and find a new passion.”

According to Hall, the club holds weekly practices, dance socials and about three competitions per year.

All dance lessons take place at the Student Recreation Center, so all attendants must have a Rec Center membership. The beginners lessons take place in the Multi-Activity Court at the Rec Center on Sundays from 10 - 11 a.m.

Intermediate and advanced lessons take place Mondays in room A from 8 - 10 p.m.

The beginner review lessons take place Wednesdays from 8 to 10 p.m., and open dance sessions occur every Monday from 11 a.m. to 12 p.m. and Wednesday from 9 - 10 p.m.

OPINION | TOPIC OF THE WEEK

Topic Health Myths of the

Week: Myth: A

productive day requires a good, hefty breakfast.

BY AMIT SAYAL @ASyal21

Everyone has heard the adage “breakfast is the most important meal of the day” at least once. But how accurate is this? Recently, the craze has revolved around fasting diets, such as intermittent fasting, which involves eating all of your food during an allotted time frame and then not eating any food for the rest of the day. Studies have shown that intermittent fasting can increase insulin sensitivity and reduce the risk of type 2 diabetes, which affects 90-95% of Americans diagnosed with diabetes. When you skip breakfast and extend your fasting period, your body is forced to tap into your storage of fats. This causes increased fat loss and, when done regularly, can aid in weight loss and increasing insulin sensitivity. So maybe skipping breakfast isn’t so bad after all.

Last week, people around the world sat down at their computers and typed in the words “beer” and “virus,” perhaps wondering if there was some correlation between the deadly coronavirus recently discovered in Wuhan, China, and Corona, the overpriced Mexican lager. It is important to remember at times like these that people have also gone to the moon and invented chess — the rich tapestry of human life! It is also a good time to remember that this wouldn’t be the first popular misconception about health. Here are some other pop health fallacies from the Wildcat editorial board:

Myth: Detox diets are the “one-stop” cure-all

BY MIKAYLA KABER @KaberMikayla

There is not one detox diet that is going to quickly fix all of the issues that everyone goes through. People are constantly trying to cut corners in order to be healthy when really all it

Myth: Cracking knuckles can cause arthritis

BY JAKE TOOLE @JakeToole4

When I was in the fifth grade, I had a substitute teacher who yelled at one of my classmates for cracking his knuckles. He then continued to berate that student, telling him how unhealthy it is and that he used to “pop” his knuckles when he was kid and that is why he now has arthritis.

That substitute teacher’s speech impacted me, as I then never cracked my knuckles for fear of getting arthritis later in life. However, I later learned this statement is false.

According to WebMD, cracking one’s knuckles does not cause to arthritis.

According to Harvard Health, cracking your knuckles too often could lead to a decrease in grip strength in your fingers, and there have been a few cases of injuries logged, but never in connection with arthritis.

takes are a few daily changes to diet and exercise. There is no quick fix to being healthy. It’s about eating healthy and wholesome foods, getting enough sleep and regular exercise. Long-term changes and getting some sun every once in a while can do wonders for the body. Short-term diets are a fad

that will hopefully pass. Small but meaningful changes can help people start to feel more alert and healthier.

Try reducing screen time toward the end of the day or eating more fruits and vegetables with meals. Do what works for you. Take care of yourself.

Myth: The five-second rule

BY ERIC WISE @IronInfidel47

When I was growing up, my neighborhood friends would follow the five-second rule with the food they might’ve dropped. I was always disgusted by this, and I don’t think it takes a lot of explanation to understand why that rule makes no sense. Of course food picks up junk when it hits the ground — we don’t need to dig up research to figure that out on our own. You might not get sick if you

tested it yourself, but I’d like to see you drop a sandwich in your bedroom and pick it back up for another bite.

Those who abide by the five-second rule might say it depends on the ground it drops onto or whether the food is worth it, but I believe they’re just very hungry all the time. If you’re still following the five-second rule, please consider breaking it for your health and for your social standing. You don’t want to be known as the person who eats food off the ground.

Myth: Windex, the wonder remedy

BY AMBER SOLAND @its_amber_rs

I’m a big proponent of melding modern medicine with natural remedies, but you have to do it right. You shouldn’t take ibuprofen for every ache and pain the universe thrusts on you, but you wouldn’t use lavender to cure cancer.

Windex is one of those supposed wonder chemicals that can cure anything and everything, but that really isn’t the case. My nana, bless her soul, used to use Windex as a cure for everything (a la “My Big Fat Greek Wedding”). Mosquito bites, rashes, warts — you name it. Now, I

wouldn’t exactly call Windex a “cure all,” but there is a reason it holds some merit.

Windex does contain rubbing alcohol and ammonium hydroxide, which dry the skin enough to reduce the itchiness of a mosquito bite, dry a poison ivy rash and could get rid of a wart with some hope and effort. Remember, though, that Windex is a glass cleaner and too much of it or the misinformed application of it can be hazardous. It should go without saying that Windex shouldn’t be used to clean small wounds the same way rubbing alcohol is — and it certainly doesn’t fix acne.

As University of Arizona students, we have all become accustomed to the tradition of syllabus week and all the craziness that goes along with it.

The 50-minute classes seem to drone on for hours as students doze off while listening to the new professors repeat the same things, and then at night students partake in their versions of letting loose.

A lot of these nights end the same way for most students, but some aren’t so lucky in making it home unscathed when they let a little too loose.

On Jan. 16 an officer spotted four females outside of the Sigma Alpha Mu fraternity house that caught his attention. One female was being held up by a Wild West security guard and the three females accompanying her fell to the ground when they made it to the sidewalk. The officer approached the females, who mostly cooperated except for one who ran away when she spotted the officer.

While producing their identification for the officer, one female accidentally showed the officer another ID before eventually giving him her real one. The officer asked for the other ID and ran it, to which he shockingly discovered was invalid.

The officer continued to interview them. He observed they were heavily intoxicated by their glassy eyes, slurred speech, inability to remember the questions they were repeatedly asking the officer and their inability to “control their emotions.” He stated that he did not interview them on their alcohol intoxication “due to their level of ingestion.”

Whether you like the fraternities or not, it’s more than likely that you’ve been to a fraternity party and are well aware of their presence on campus.

Most people are aware of these fraternity parties getting shut down, but many are not likely aware of the red tags that were placed on the Pi Kappa Alpha and Pi Kappa Phi fraternity houses for unruly gatherings on the same night in late September.

These red tags restrict the fraternities’ ability to host parties and were both scheduled to be removed in March of 2020.

One red tag wasn’t going to slow these fraternities down, but two might.

In the early morning hours of Jan. 17, a University of Arizona Police Department officer was flagged down by the Tucson Police Department to assist in shutting down a fraternity party at Pi Kappa Alpha for a noise complaint. The officer said he could hear loud music coming from the house from as far as two blocks away and then much louder from the courtyard.

When he arrived on scene, he also saw laser lights shining from the stage. He also stated that there were two generators on the lawn that were making a considerable amount of noise. The Pi Kappa Alpha fraternity was issued an additional red tag that night.

In the late hours of Jan. 17, an officer was flagged down to assist in shutting down another party right next door at the Pi Kappa Phi fraternity house after receiving a noise complaint. The fraternity’s risk manager had been notified earlier in the night that if another noise complaint was received, they would be issued a second red tag as well.

Since 200-300 people were exiting the party, the officers spoke with three executive members of the fraternity and asked to speak with the president, who they claimed was at the library. The president arrived and said he had been at the library “but he did not have a backpack and was wearing a wristband from the party.”

The security guards informed the officers that

Not all university students’ idea of letting loose involves alcohol. On Jan. 18 officers were dispatched to Coronado Residence Hall after a residence assistant had called reporting a strong odor of marijuana coming from one of the dorm rooms on the ninth floor.

The officers made contact with the residents of the room who consented for them to enter, to which they immediately could smell a potent odor of marijuana and observed glass pipes and a box of drug paraphernalia.

The two girls were the occupants of the room, and admitted that they had been smoking in the room that night, but they usually don’t and jointly share all drug paraphernalia.

When asked if there was anything else in the room the officers should know about, one of the girls produced a vape pen with a cannabis oil cartridge in it. The officer informed them that possession of the THC oil was a felony, and if one girl had more ownership than the other then only one would be charged with the felony. They both responded that they equally shared it.

There were over 25 documented items of drug paraphernalia and marijuana found in the room including 8 grams of marijuana, 5 grams of medicalgrade marijuana, joints, THC cough drops, a THC oil cartridge, a bong, glass pipes, various brands of rolling papers and other miscellaneous items. Both girls were arrested for possession of a narcotic drug, possession of marijuana and possession of drug paraphernalia and taken to Pima County Jail where felony interims were completed for both girls.
