Man barricades himself Higher in apartment near campus education under review By Bethany Barnes ARIZONA DAILY WILDCAT

A SWAT team packs up to leave while Tucson Police Department officers arrest a man who barricaded himself in an apartment with a knife-like weapon across the street of the dormitory construction on Euclid Avenue and Sixth Street Thursday afternoon.

Weapon-wielding man shot with rubber bullets, subdued By Jazmine Woodberry ARIZONA DAILY WILDCAT A man flashing a sharp-edged, knife-like weapon barricaded himself into an apartment nearby campus early Thursday afternoon. The Tucson Police Department got the initial call to the apartment at 747 E. Sixth St. at 12:41 p.m. in regards to a subject swinging a knife around and threatening people. After officers encountered him, the man ran inside the apartment.

“Clearly, this is an individual in crisis,” said Sgt. Fabian Pacheco.“Clearly, if this individual needs help, we will get him the help that he needs.” The man spent three hours in the apartment before the Special Weapons and Tactics Team arrived. When exiting the apartment, he did not respond to the officers’ requests, and they fired a non-lethal rubber bullet into his ribs. He was then taken into custody. “We don’t want anyone to get hurt in these situations,” Pacheco said.

Pacheco noted that TPD was pleased with how the situation turned out. “This outcome illustrates how critical it is to follow our established protocols, not to push things too fast and, at the same time, utilize our SWAT officers if the situation needs to go tactical,” Pacheco said.“You just have to take your time with those situations and resolve them peacefully.” Roads around the UA, as well as Tucson High School, were closed for several hours, but were reopened soon after the suspect was taken into

custody. He was transported to the main TPD station to be questioned at around 5:15 p.m. Roads were reopened at 5:45 p.m. He was transported to Pima County Jail Thursday night. No charges had been made as of press time, but officials say he could be charged with disorderly conduct and aggravated assault. The name of the subject had not been identified as of press time, but it was confirmed that he was not a UA student.

Study Buddy pill replaces Adderall By Lucy Valencia ARIZONA DAILY WILDCAT

A UA alumnus hopes to battle the illicit use of prescription medication, such as Adderall and Ritalin, with a new study aid pill. Tyler Johansen developed a supplement company in his early years as a finance and entrepreneurship student at the UA. The idea was further propelled when Johansen was researching the pharmaceutical industry at an entrepreneurial summer research program. Johansen launched Brainiac Supplements LLC and released the company’s first product,“Study Buddy,”on March 8.This pill was developed in coalition

with pharmacists who promise to improve energy, increase memory, enhance focus and even alleviate hangovers. “In my college days, we used to drink coffee, studying for exams,” said Jim Jindrick, a mentor-in-residence at Eller. Now, mental stimulants for Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) have become a popular yet dangerous tool. “There’s times when students become very stressed … the idea is to formulate a useful and healthier alternative,” Jindrick said. Study Buddy sells exclusively at the UA. David Dougall, the manager of the Food Stop Division, and who oversees all of the UA’s convenience stores, said

there’s been positive feedback from students showing enhanced mental stimulation after using Study Buddy. Initially, an order of 250 packets came in, but Dougall said he already has another shipment placed for 100 additional packs of Study Buddy just for next week. “It was initially sold at Bookend Cafe, near the UA Main Library, since its location would strategically work with what it is intended for,” Dougall said. ”(It’s) where students study.” Now it’s available at four different locations on campus. Christiana Ageh, the supervisor for U-Mart has seen a definite increase in popularity among students but couldn’t give a definite number.

She added that the Bookend Cafe has sold the most of the supplement. “Bookend is doing great; they’ve already sold out all of their first shipment and needed to request more orders,”Ageh said. Even though it’s a new product, UA students“seem to really like it,”she said. Upon graduating from the UA, Johansen moved to Phoenix, got laid off and moved back to Tucson with the motivation to start the company. The company was costly to get off the ground, but Johansen’s endeavor was financially backed by his father. If it is successful at the UA, Johansen plans to expand his business to other Arizona college campuses and eventually take Study Buddy nationwide.

Community and civic engagement were the topics of the Higher Education Colloquium, a program which invites academic leaders to come together for discussion, on Thursday. The colloquium, sponsored by the Center for the Study of Higher Education, is held Thursdays from 12:30-1:45 p.m. this semester. These topics addressed the role of foundations and partnerships in education by having Jack Jewett, president and CEO of the Flinn Foundation, and Paul Luna, president and CEO of the Helios Foundation, speak. Jewett said Arizona is at a crossroads in education and that it poses a threat to the Flinn Foundation’s programs. In the past, the Flinn Scholars program awards 20 students full undergraduate scholarships to Arizona public universities every year. Last year, because of damage to Arizona’s reputation in higher education, they were only able to offer 17 scholarships. “Arizona was being hammered a year ago, and there was a consequence to that,” Jewett said. Jewett and Luna focused on the crisis as a call to action. “There is indeed an honor to public service and we need to equip individuals with the qualities and the skill sets and the opportunity to serve. Whether it’s in public service or private service, there is a lot of work that can be done,”Jewett said. Luna shared both Helios’ story and talked about Expect More Arizona, an organization created to give education a voice in Arizona. Luna said Expect More Arizona is about raising the understanding of all residents in the state in regards to education. Luna talked about how the organization works on giving information and inspiring the community to share their voice and ask questions. “You ask the questions and you make sure you are satisfied with the answers you get,”Luna said. Luna’s presentation showed questions such as “Is average good enough? Are our expectations good enough? And are we doing enough?” Luna said that the Helios Foundation was going to be bringing all of its resources to the table and encouraged individuals to do the same. “Bring what you have, bring what you can because our future depends on it,” Luna said. The audience seemed pleased with the optimistic outlook. Joe Embacher a graduate student in the higher education program, was among those satisfied with the presentation. “I think they laid out a very good proposal for the future of the state and a very optimistic future which has been a lot different than the rest of the speakers we heard in the series,”Embacher said.

Bazaar bonds CESL students By Matt Lewis ARIZONA DAILY WILDCAT

The Center for English as a Second Language (CESL) hosted an International Bazaar on Thursday. Students in CESL demonstrated aspects of their individual cultures and shared them with the UA and Tucson community. The event has been around since the mid-1970s. According to the most recently published UA Factbook, there were 2,351 students from approximately 120 countries for the 2008-09 academic year. “A bazaar is something exotic or

different because there are many cultures in one place,” said Jennell Rae, student activities coordinator for the event. Students from more than 30 countries shared their cultures with other students and those in the community. Event organizers were expecting between 150-200 people, the amount that normally attends the bazaar. “(It is important) to showcase and share the cultural diversity and customs of our student body with the community at large,” Rae said. Students shared their talents through song, dance, poetry, martial arts and drama, and patrons could

sample food and look at different types of currency. Attendees could also have their names written in various languages and each room was decorated to represent different parts of the world. In the Africa Room, students could learn some of the “clicks” of Xhosa, one of the official languages of South Africa. Saudi students brought down the house with their song and dance, and were told they were too loud since other university classes were being conducted below. There were even lines for some of the rooms BAZAAR, page 3

Political science junior So have you registered for classes yet? Uh, no, not yet. I think I’m scheduled to do it on Tuesday. Well, this semester it’s a little different isn’t it? Have you looked at the new system, UAccess? Yeah, I have reserved some classes or whatever. You know, put them in my shopping cart. How do you feel about that feature? I mean, I think it’s pretty cool, kind of like shopping on eBay or Amazon. Yeah, I don’t do a lot of eBay shopping because I don’t have much money to spend, but yeah, it kind of seems like that. I don’t mind it. Do you think you will be able to enroll in the classes that you want? Yeah, it shouldn’t be a big deal. What classes are you registering for since you are a political science major? Probably classes related to international relations, governments and economy. Stuff like that. OK, Jeopardy time: What is one of the biggest things going on right now in the political sphere? Health care. And your opinion? I’m for it. Can you elaborate on that? I just think it’s a right that everyone should have. Everyone should be able to go see a doctor. If you can’t afford it, that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t be able to go. Nicely put. So tell me, is there anything else we should know in terms of international affairs? Yeah. The president just signed a big deal to reduce the amount of nuclear arms with Russia and the U.S., so that’s a really good thing if you don’t like nuclear war. Yeah, I don’t really want to be blown up in the near future so that would probably be a good thing. Well, this just ensures that you won’t be blown up as many times. Oh, OK. Because the one time wouldn’t already kill me, right? Well, that depends on the blast radius. I really couldn’t tell you. (Laughs.) OK, well I’ll just try to take cover if I hear of anything. Hide under a table, that’s a good one. And I think there is a fall-out shelter in the Education building. Really? Sweet! Learn something new every day. I might have to check it out. —Dallas Williamson

FDA cracking down on fat-melting injections WASHINGTON — The Food and Drug Administration is cracking down on what are billed as fatmelting injections used in spas across the U.S., saying the drugs have not been proven safe or effective. Lipodissolve injections, a popular nonsurgical alternative to liposuction, are used to dissolve small fat deposits around the legs, arms and belly. The FDA said

Wednesday the drugs have not been cleared by federal scientists, as required by law. The agency issued warning letters to a half-dozen spas that offer the injections, citing them for making unsubstantiated claims about lipodissolve therapy. “The claims made for your lipodissolve products are false and misleading in that they are not

supported by substantial evidence or substantial clinical experience,” states a letter to All About You Medspa in Madison, Ind. Other spas cited by the FDA included: Pure Med Spa of Boca Raton, Fla., Monarch Med Spa of King of Prussia, Pa., and three others.

Roman Polanski attorneys plead to end case LOS ANGELES — Roman Polanski’s lawyers have filed a last legal volley in a California appeals court, saying that the 33-year-old sex case and its lengthy delays have been an assault on the state’s judicial system. The attorneys said in papers filed Tuesday that the court should order an investigation of judicial misconduct in Polanski’s original case and that the Oscar-winning filmmaker should not have to pay for it — an indication that he is running out of funds. Polanski was arrested six months ago on a fugitive warrant from Los Angeles and is under house arrest in Roman Polanski Switzerland. The 76-year-old has mounting debts and no way to earn a living while in custody, his attorneys said. The defense made their latest plea in response to arguments from prosecutors who say Polanski must return from Europe to face sentencing. The defense argued that the director should be sentenced in absentia to time served. The papers were filed in the California 2nd District Court of Appeal. “It is unjust for a defendant’s constitutional rights to be held hostage to the district attorney’s office’s outright refusal to investigate the misconduct in which it was involved,” said the defense brief. Most of the 24-page filing was a recitation of facts that have been raised repeatedly by the defense since they first went to court seeking Polanski’s freedom. They contend the now deceased judge committed misconduct in the case. Polanski, the director “The Pianist” and “Chinatown,” fled the U.S. in 1978 after pleading guilty to unlawful sexual intercourse with a 13-year-old girl. He had served part of a 90-day period in prison ordered by the judge for a “diagnostic study.” His departure was prompted by the judge’s private statements that he planned to renege on the agreement that the study would be Polanski’s full sentence, according to documents filed in the case. —The Associated Press

EVERYONE HAS A STORY Rodeo coach, 45 years at the UA By Laura E. Donovan ARIZONA DAILY WILDCAT â&#x20AC;&#x153;Everyone Has a Storyâ&#x20AC;? is a weekly segment in the Arizona Daily Wildcat that aims to tell the story of an interesting person on the UA campus. This week, the Daily Wildcat interviewed John Marchello, an animal sciences professor who was awarded Wednesday at the Annual Service Awards Luncheon for 45 years of serice at the UA. Marchello tells his students that life begins at 40. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m not talking about humans, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m talking about bacteria,â&#x20AC;? said Marchello, also a food safety specialist. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If we keep a perishable food item under 40 degrees, that eliminates a lot of foodborne illnesses.â&#x20AC;? Marchelloâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s second food safety slogan is, â&#x20AC;&#x153;When in doubt, throw it out.â&#x20AC;? Because of allergic reactions that many people have to certain foods, Marchello advises, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Take a minute to see whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s in it.â&#x20AC;? Marchello earned an Annual Service Award for 45 years of service to the UA, the most of anyone currently working. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was very exciting to be awarded,â&#x20AC;? Marchello said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I was the only one who got an award for being on campus for 45 years.â&#x20AC;? Marchello received a mirror with a picture of Old Main on it. In 45 years, Marchello has seen significant changes on the UA campus. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The construction here has been truly amazing, but traffic is a real pain,â&#x20AC;? Marchello said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s why Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m glad I work in the meat laboratory.â&#x20AC;? Marchello has worked under six university presidents during his

time on campus. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Unfortunately, the student work ethic is not as studious as it was in the past,â&#x20AC;? Marchello said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;One thing that really bothers me is lack of attendance in class.â&#x20AC;? Marchello has also been coaching the Rodeo Club since 1967. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have the distinction of having the oldest collegiate Rodeo association here,â&#x20AC;? Marchello said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;A lot of young ladies want to come and race. The ones coming back to this club are usually daughters and sons of former collegiate competitors.â&#x20AC;? Marchello got into his field of study at a young age. Having been raised in the small town of Bearcreek, Mo., Marchelloâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s father owned a butcher shop, so they fed and harvested their own cattle and learned how to process

Marchello said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We raised a lot of cattle, and I had the fortunate opportunity to go into the Future Farmers of America program while I was in high school and that enhanced my interest with regards to production and livestock.â&#x20AC;? Marchello went to Montana State University for his undergraduate studies and masterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s degree before going on to Colorado State University, where he ran the meat laboratory, for his Ph.D. He came to the UA in 1965. The College of Agriculture built a new meat science laboratory off campus in 1988, where Marchello presently works.

time he graduates, but the students at CESL make friends with people from all over the world. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not unusual for a Saudi to visit Japan because of the relationships students develop at CESL,â&#x20AC;?

Sung has been in Arizona for two months in hopes of learning English and attending the UA. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s really cool â&#x20AC;Ś in CESL, every day I learn about other cultures other than mine,â&#x20AC;? she said.

Alshaalan said.

Arizona House approves concealed weapons bill PHOENIX â&#x20AC;&#x201D; The Arizona House voted Thursday to make the state the third in the nation to allow people to carry concealed weapons without a permit, sending the governor a bill that would allow Arizonans to forego background checks and classes that are now required. The legislation, approved by the House 36-19 without discussion, would make it legal for most U.S. citizens 21 or older to carry a concealed weapon in Arizona without the permit now required. Sen. Russell Pearce, a Mesa Republican who sponsored the measure, said last week that he added changes requested by

Gov. Jan Brewerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s office, an indication that she is likely to sign it. Supporters say gun restrictions only affect people who want to follow the rules because criminals will carry hidden guns regardless of the law. Nearly all adults can carry a weapon openly in Arizona, and they shouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t face additional restrictions when they want to hide the weapon, supporters argue. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s dangerous is when theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re in criminalsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; hands, not citizensâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; hands,â&#x20AC;? said Rep. David Gowan, R-Sierra Vista, a bill sponsor. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; The Associated Press

Cultural exchange offers new insights

like the Saudi room. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the students taking ownership and pride of their culture,â&#x20AC;? Rae said. Olga Geissler, the online coordinator for CESL and one of the eventâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s organizers, said the yearly event provides a unique opportunity for students. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a cultural exchange; rather than just sitting in class learning about Argentina, you can learn about Argentina (from someone whoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s from there),â&#x20AC;? she said. Also at the event were some elementary and middle school children. Every year, several local elementary and middle schools bring students to the event. â&#x20AC;&#x153;CESL students are the â&#x20AC;&#x153;starsâ&#x20AC;? of the bazaar as they demonstrate and explain traditions from their cultures,â&#x20AC;?

A small victory for civil liberties S

ince the 9/11 terrorist attacks and the subsequent passing of the USA PATRIOT Act, the country and the courts have been locked in a seemingly interminable debate about striking the proper balance between liberty and increased administrative power, operating as always under the guise of “security.” Thankfully, a recent federal court ruling scores a couple of points for liberty. In the case of Al-Haramain Islamic Foundation v. Obama (which the current administration inherited from its predecessor), Chief Judge Vaughn Walker of San Francisco’s federal district court found that the government acted unlawfully in the warrantless wiretapping Ben Harper of the Al-Haramain Columnist Islamic Foundation’s offices in Ashland, Ore. The foundation, an Islamic charity organization that the government suspected of providing funding to terrorist organizations, learned of the wiretapping program when Bush Administration lawyers accidentally supplied the foundation with a classified document detailing government espionage. The new Obama administration, far from repudiating the government’s previous position, attempted to defend it on the same grounds — that the state secrets privilege (a power recognized by the courts in United States v. Reynolds, which allows the government to exclude evidence from legal proceedings on the basis of “national security”) was sufficient to prevent Al-Haramain from introducing the aforementioned document as evidence. The defense’s argument, essentially, is that if citizens want to levy a suit against the government for violation of FISA (the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act, which regulates the physical and electronic surveillance), they have to prove such a violation. The federal government, however, is within its rights to restrict confidential evidence of such surveillance by invoking “state secrets.” As Walker writes in his summary judgment, “Under defendants’ theory, executive branch officials may treat FISA as optional and freely employ the state secrets privilege to evade FISA, a statute enacted specifically to rein in and create a judicial check for executive-branch abuses of surveillance authority.” The plaintiffs were able to make a convincing case that the federal government had been monitoring their communications with non-confidential evidence, to which the government offered no real rejoinder except for insistence that their cause célébrée of “national security” trumps our basic legal rights. The judge would have preferred to see a FISA warrant. “FISA affords civil remedies to ‘aggrieved persons’ who can show they were subjected to warrantless domestic national security surveillance; FISA takes precedence over the state secrets privilege in this case … Defendants’ various legal arguments for dismissal and in opposition to plaintiffs’ summary judgment motion lack merit: defendants have failed to meet their burden to come forward, in response to plaintiffs’ prima facie case of electronic surveillance, with evidence that a FISA warrant was obtained, that plaintiffs were not surveilled or that the surveillance was otherwise lawful.” This is a giant step in the right direction for America, a victory for the rule of law against everexpanding executive power. But the events of the case demonstrate with great clarity that executive overreach is not endemic to any particular party or administration but is, like it or not, an unfortunate constant of our government. Fortunately, our other branches of government are endowed with the power to resist such unconstitutional actions, and (now that the terrorism panic has somewhat subsided) appear interested in doing so. But this case is far from over. The plaintiffs may choose to drop the elements of their claim unrelated to FISA and proceed to damages or continue with the rest of their case. Regardless, the government will almost certainly appeal to the 9th Circuit Court, where we can only hope our liberties will again be upheld. — Ben Harper is a philosophy senior.

Confederate History Month justified

I would like to make comment to Luke Money’s article in today’s Wildcat. First of all, I am not trying to belittle slavery in any means. I agree that it was an atrocious part of our history and that we have moved away from it somewhat.Yes there is still racism today and it’s not a good thing. I think, however, he misses the point of Confederate History Month. The point is not to celebrate all the ‘backward-thinking states clinging to the last vestiges of white supremacy.’ The point isn’t to omit slavery as a part of our history. The point is to remind people that those who fought and died on BOTH sides of the war gave their lives for a cause they believed in, whether or not we agree with that cause today. Virginia especially was a conflicted state. It was on the border between the Union and the Confederacy. The capital of the Confederacy was in Richmond. Families were torn apart, not only by battles being fought in their backyard, but by ideologies on slavery. The state was so torn that West Virginia was formed as a Northern state. The state did not enjoy a peaceful return to normalcy as Luke Money states. He has misinterpreted his quotation on Gov. McDonnell. McDonnell’s statement portrayed that when the war was over, the Confederate soldiers rejoined the Union peacefully and did not try to continue the fighting. This is not the same as saying that life in the South was peaceful for the soldiers, but not for former slaves. There are too many closed minded people who automatically look at anyone on the Confederate side as evil. Most of the country views the South as a bunch of rednecks with guns and Confederate flags. This simply is not true and I commend Governor McDonnell for trying to change this stereotype. Anyone who remembers 5th grade history should remember that the Civil War was about states’ rights and whether individual states or the Federal government should make the decision on slavery and other issues in the U.S. Whether Money agrees with anything the Confederacy stood for, the fact of the matter is that he should not jump to“shortsighted, misguided”conclusions without understanding the goals of Confederate History Month. — Elizabeth Thomas Spanish and mathematics undergraduate Vroom for improvement

Scone? Sc-don’t.

Just wanted to drop a line that I just discovered the nutrition information page for the student unions’ food. It is purposefully hidden among their web pages and then navigating to the actual information is difficult at best. Then, when you start to poke around at the things you normally eat, you find out that innocent blueberry scone you have a couple times of week for breakfast is the WORST offender on the list at 972 calories with 50 grams of fat. This is hardly a healthy environment for our students and staff who often eat two or three meals a day here. I have worked here 10 years and if I knew this information sooner, I would have stopped eating here a lot sooner. This knowledge getting out is going to translate into lost dollars for the University at a critical time especially considering the financial crisis we are in currently. To see the nutrition information you have to click on a location, then click on the apple, then you can select an item to view. Even the web page is deceptive. If they weren’t trying to hide it, wouldn’t it be more prominently displayed on their FRONT PAGE and much more intuitive to use? I think if parents knew this is what their kids had access to they would be outraged. Even the healthy spots, like Core (which doesn’t list the information for the actual ingredients) don’t appear to be very healthy for you. It would really be a good idea to raise the awareness among the students, staff and parents to the unhealthy food that is available to us on campus. If enough people are concerned maybe the student unions can be convinced to seriously overhaul their food. — Shanley Yates Executive Assistant, External Relations Office

There are people in this world who try to take advantage of a situation to better themselves, even if they don’t deserve it. Toyota has done testing and has not been able to find any flaws in their vehicles. Regardless, people are going to try to take advantage of Toyota financially to better themselves. People are filing lawsuits against Toyota for accidents that they could be at fault for. It is important that we are skeptical of sensational news reports and wait for all the evidence. — John Peterson Pre-business undergraduate

Prop it up

I applaud the Daily Wildcat for noting that the passage of the Student Aid & Fiscal Responsibility Act, or SAFRA, is the first in a series of steps to address the rising cost of education at our public universities. A part of the Health Care and Reconciliation Act, SAFRA will ensure students loans work for students and families, not as subsidies for big banks, as well as provide millions of dollars in Pell Grants to college students. I am especially proud that I was one of 34 representatives from the Arizona Students’Association (ASA) that attended a national lobby day in Washington D.C. over spring break to successfully lobby for the bill. That capped intense lobbying efforts at each of Arizona’s universities which led to five of Arizona’s eight House delegation members to vote for the bill, which ultimately passed with a four-vote margin. But, as stated by the Daily Wildcat, more needs to be done. That is why ASA is now working to pass Proposition 100, the temporary one-cent increase in Arizona’s sales tax meant to protect education, public safety, and health care. To appear on the May 18th Special Election ballot in Arizona, ASA is encouraging students to register to vote and to request a vote-by-mail because if Proposition 100 does not pass, another $107 million will be cut from the university’s budget and tuition could increase another $1,000 this year! To continue to make higher education in Arizona more affordable and accessible, I encourage all students to vote Yes on 100! Sincerely, — Sean Assad Political science and history junior

Satirific

Financial crises are no time to come up with ad hoc solutions. Sure we’re worried about our futures, but we must make an actual plan for the future, instead of blind action. In other words, thinking goes a long way in successful endeavors. When our lawmakers don’t think very hard, we end up with a solution like this: the Mythic Corporation’s initiative to buy the Arizona government. I quote the Tucson Weekly as saying the Legislature“appears prepared to turn over nearly every aspect of government to the Mythic Corporation.”Have our lawmakers actually watched movies where corporations own the government? That’s mostly a joke, but when CEO Rex Swift boasted to a conservative audience that,“Government can’t make the decisions we make, because they are bound by too many regulations that limit the imagination of the bureaucracy,”I have to question the intentions of his company. Generalities suggest that there is something to hide. Do they actually want to help, or do they just want to take everything over when the United States is extremely weak? What does a corporate takeover of government mean? Doesn’t a privately owned government just scream power abuse? Why would a corporation

â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Smelly Proofâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; earns man a ticket A University of Arizona Police Department officer was on patrol at the intersection of Fourth Street and Highland Avenue Sunday at 11:20 a.m. when he performed a traffic stop on a driver who failed to stop at a stop sign. As the officer asked the man for his license, insurance and registration, he told the man the reason for the stop, and the man said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Oh, the stop sign â&#x20AC;&#x201D; I didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t see that.â&#x20AC;? While talking with the man, the officer could smell an odor of marijuana coming from the car. The man told the officer, â&#x20AC;&#x153;No, I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t carry that stuff in the car anymore since the last time I got a ticket for it.â&#x20AC;? He also told the officer that the last time he had smoked was three or four days prior. The man told the officer that he could search his car, and the officer found a small plastic baggie labeled,â&#x20AC;&#x153;Smelly Proof.â&#x20AC;? When the officer opened the bag, he could smell marijuana. The officer asked the man if the car was his and if he knew the plastic baggie was inside. The man said that he thought he had cleaned his car out completely after he got his last ticket and that he must have missed the baggie that was stuffed in the pocket behind the passenger seat. He also stated that the bag was his and that there used to be a smoking pipe inside the bag. The man told the officer that even though he knows marijuana is illegal, he smokes it anyway. The man asked the officer not to arrest him because he had just lost his job and was worried about paying fines and having to be on probation. The officer said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;What youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re doing is illegal, and I canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t let you go without arresting you.â&#x20AC;? The man was cited and released on scene for possession of drug paraphernalia and failure to stop at a stop sign.

Toga classes up MIP A UAPD officer was on patrol on Euclid Avenue on Tuesday at 1:13 p.m. when he saw a car make two improper turns onto Fourth Street and Sixth Street. When the officer stopped the car and spoke with the driver, he could smell a strong odor of alcohol coming from the car. While the officer was speaking with the driver, he could tell the smell was not coming from him. The officer then spoke with the passenger of the car. The passengerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s speech was slurred, and he had bloodshot eyes. The officer asked the passenger to get out of the car, and, when he tried, he had to use the side of car to help him walk. Also, when he stood up, he swayed about 4 to 6 inches. When the officer asked if he had been drinking, the man said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Yeah, I was drinking at a party off campus.â&#x20AC;? The man would not say where the party was or who provided the alcohol, but the man was wearing a toga. The man was cited and released for minor in possession in body, and the driver was warned about making improper turns. No Code of Conduct referral was completed because the incident occurred off campus.

The theft of the change container A UAPD officer arrived at the intersection of Cherry Avenue and University Boulevard Monday at 9:38 a.m. after a Parking and Transportation Services employee reported a possible theft from a parking meter. The man told the officer that he was collecting change from the meters on Cherry Avenue, and, when he got to meter number 1802, he saw that it was open, and that the change container was missing. The man said the last time the meters were emptied was on April 1, and there could have been up to $18.90 in the container. He also said that, even though there is no container in the meter, it will still register change being dropped in and that change would have just fallen to the ground. The officer did not see any clear damage to the meter. The officer spoke with an employee who had been emptying the meters on April 1, and the employee said that there had been extra workers that day because it was raining, and they wanted to empty the meters quickly. He said that each of the men working had keys to the meters, and a meter could have been left unlocked after it was emptied, because that had happened before. A Victimâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Rights form was issued to the UA. There are no witnesses or suspects to the theft of the change container.

Man hit, promised new bike A UAPD officer spoke with a man at the UAPD main station on Monday at 2 p.m. after he requested documentation of a bike accident he had been a part of earlier that day. The man told the officer that the accident happened at 11:10 a.m. at the intersection of Mountain Avenue and First Street. He said that he was riding his bicycle northbound on Mountain Avenue in the bike lane, and, as he came up to First Street, a blue car that was stopped at a stop sign started to drive westbound on First Street. The man stated that the front bumper of the car collided with the right bike pedal. Both the bike and the car were moving between 3 and 5 mph, and there were no injuries. The driver of the car remained at the scene and promised the man that he would buy him a new bicycle. Both of the men agreed to handle the situation civilly, and they both left. The man said that he did want the situation formally documented just in case the man goes back on his promise to buy a new bike. The officer inspected the bicycle and documented the damage done to the pedal and metal gear frame.

No. 2 Arizona at No. 1 Washington

Gunning for first place

Baseball seeks first road win By Michael Fitzsimmons Arizona Daily Wildcat

Gordon Bates/Arizona Daily Wildcat

Junior Stacie Chambers eyes a pitch during the Wildcats’ two-game sweep of UTEP at Hillenbrand Stadium on Wednesday. UA will head to Seattle to take on the No. 1 Washington Huskies in a three-game series starting tonight.

Nation’s top two teams duke it out in Washington By Kevin Zimmerman Arizona Daily Wildcat The defending NCAA softball champions versus an eight-time Women’s College World Series winner. A nationally ranked No. 1 facing the No. 2 team in the country. The reigning national player of the year facing off against a freshman phenom in the circle. Any way you slice it, all eyes will be on the No. 2 Arizona softball team’s three-game series against No. 1 Washington and last year’s USA Softball Player of the Year, pitcher Danielle Lawrie. The series begins tonight at 6 in Seattle and continues

with a 4 p.m. Saturday contest and a finale on Sunday at noon. Coming off a dominant sweep of UTEP on Wednesday, Arizona (32-4, 2-1 Pacific 10 Conference) had its sights set on beating the Huskies (30-3, 2-1) immediately afterward. “I’m nervous, but it’s a good excitement,” said UA freshman ace Kenzie Fowler.“It’s going to be a game with a lot of people watching. Just how cool for sports, for women’s sports, for softball to have this kind of game. “I’m honored to be in it,” she added. “It’s going to be just a test both ways.” Fowler will be under the microscope this weekend. And as she takes the circle against the Huskies’ Lawrie,

the big-name pitchers’ similarities are easy to see. Lawrie touts a 0.94 ERA to Fowler’s 0.92, and both are good enough to throw into the batting order. Fowler (21-2) has been a frequent addition to Arizona’s line-up recently, most notably against ASU, when she hit her first career grand slam. On the other side, Lawrie had hit .337 with 11 home runs as of April 5. Fowler and Lawrie, arguably, are two of the game’s top aces, but the Arizona hitters aren’t overly concerned about Lawrie. “Yeah, she no-hit us last year,” said shortstop K’Lee Arredondo. “That’s good for her. It’s a new year.” Last season, Lawrie threw a

12-strikeout, no-hitter in a 6-0 win over the Wildcats in Seattle. She later pitched a four-hit, 12-strikeout game during a 4-1 win in Tucson. This weekend, the Wildcats will have to adjust immediately to Lawrie, and Arizona head coach Mike Candrea said that individual preparation is key going into the weekend — the Wildcats need to worry about themselves before worrying about Washington. “Hitters sometimes wait until they get into the batter’s box before they start thinking about their plan,” Candrea said. “There’s some thought that has to go into it.”

Weird. That was the word head coach Andy Lopez used to describe the Arizona baseball team’s series against California in Berkeley, Calif., last weekend. Freshman ace Kurt Heyer (4-0, 2.08 ERA) has set the tone for every series this year, and when he was struck in the head with a 110 mph ball last Thursday in the first game of the series, Arizona’s nerves were shaken, and its weekend was thrown off-course. “I’m not afraid to say this about my team, I think they were genuinely concerned about it, and wanted to be sure he was OK,” Lopez said. Rain forced the Wildcats to play a doubleheader on Saturday, but they could not muster a win and were swept by the Golden Bears in their first trip away from Tucson this season. “(Cal) played exceptionally well and we did not play well at all. That was a tough road trip,”Lopez said.“It was just a weird weekend.” Luckily for No. 22 Arizona (20-8, 2-4 Pacific 10 Conference) there is still plenty of time to rebound from its rough weekend in the Bay Area, beginning at 6 tonight against Washington in Seattle. The Huskies (16-11, 2-1) won’t be an easy out, with the momentum from winning nine of their last 10 games. Lopez expects to face a capable team in every series this season, given the tough landscape of the conference. “I keep telling our guys, I think every night you’ve got to be at your best in the Pac-10,” Lopez said. That said, this weekend’s matchup is tilted in Arizona’s favor. Despite scoring just five runs all series against Cal, the Wildcats remain one of the top offenses in the Pac-10. They will have a chance to get their bats going again facing Washington’s pitching staff, which ranked last in the conference in ERA and opponent batting average entering the week.

Spring game: Things to watch for

By Tim Kosch Arizona Daily Wildcat

first chance to call plays in a (somewhat) competitive environment. The key: How will Littrell and quarterback Nick Foles communicate? Play calling in a scrimmage isn’t essential because most plays will be scripted, but this is an excellent opportunity for Littrell and Foles to start getting on the same page.

Think that the annual Arizona spring football game is meaningless? Think again. Coaches around the country use the spring game, an intrasquad scrimmage held at the end of every spring football season, to find out what players improved since the end of the previous season. While it’s no guarantee, players who succeed on Saturday have an inside track at playing time for the 2010 season. Here’s a look at five storylines to keep an eye on:

4. How are the co-defensive coordinators? It’s a unique scenario: two coaches teaming up to fulfill one job and replace seven starters in the process. Linebackers coach Tim Kish and secondary coach Greg Brown have gotten along swimmingly in the spring, but whether the new players on defense have acclimated to the system yet is still unknown. The key: How in sync is the secondary? If the Wildcats can minimize coverage and assignment confusion, then the defense should be on the right track.

1. Can Arizona stay healthy? One could realistically argue that, had it not been for injuries, Arizona might have ended up in the Rose Bowl rather than the Holiday Bowl. But injuries are part of the game, and the Wildcats have learned that the hard way this year. Competition and energy should be at a high level on Saturday, but injuries need to be avoided at all costs. The key: How much will next year’s top players play? With last year’s injury bug in the back of everyone’s mind, it will be interesting to see how much the starters — especially tailback Nic Grigsby — will play on Saturday.

2. How will the passing game look? Arizona had a good year offensively last season, but the passing game sputtered a bit down the stretch. The Wildcats will return all major skill position players from last year — only wide receiver Terrell Turner graduated — so the offense is expected to put up big

5. How are the linebackers?

numbers, especially through the air. The key: Is Nick Foles taking shots downfield? Foles has a very strong arm, and Arizona has players who can stretch the field. Home run-type plays were

noticeably few and far between last season, and that needs to change in 2010.

3. How will the play-calling go? It was recently announced that

set up at 6,230 yards. This is Arizona’s last chance to play competitively before the Pacific 10 Conference Championships, which will be held April 18-21 at the University of Oregon. The Wildcats sit at No. 8 in the latest Golfweek/Sagarin rankings — a purely statistical comparison

of teams — and have a firm grasp on one of the at-large spots if they don’t receive an automatic bid in the Pac-10 Tournament. Arizona is led by sophomore Isabelle Boineau, with a 73.32 scoring average and four top-20 finishes. Margarita Ramos, also a sophomore, is second on the team with a 73.42 average.

Freshman sensation Sherlyn Popelka is third on the team in scoring average, with a 73.47 average, but has the team’s lowest tournament finish of the season at 7-under-par. Popelka has struggled with consistency this season, and will be key to Arizona making a deep run in the NCAA tournament.

Junior college transfers Derek Earls and Paul Vassallo have received rave reviews since finally donning Arizona practice uniforms this spring. Linebacker is the Wildcats’ most glaring need heading into 2010, and, although the three positions aren’t set in stone yet, the results from Saturday will greatly impact who will start in September. The key: Who will be the most ready to play? At this point, the coaches are looking for the linebackers most comfortable in the system.

The 17-team field features six top-10 teams – No. 1 Arizona State, No. 3 University of California, Los Angeles, No. 5 Pepperdine, No. 6 USC, No.7 Alabama and No. 8 Arizona. Arizona finished sixth in last year’s tournament, while Oklahoma State took first.

Menâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s, womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s tennis facing SoCal By Dan Kohler Arizona Daily Wildcat

After finally securing its first conference win of the season, the No. 35 Arizona menâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s tennis team looks to take its momentum into what might be the most difficult weekend of the season. The Wildcats will take on the No. 3 USC Trojans on Friday and the No. 10 UCLA Bruins on Sunday at the LaNelle Robson Tennis Center. With its defeat of the Oregon Ducks on Sunday, Arizona (12-8, 1-3 Pacific 10 Conference) was able to finally get back on the right track just in time to take on the Trojans (18-2, 4-0) and Bruins (12-5, 3-1), who are currently two of the best teams in the nation. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We had a few tough losses prior to the Oregon win,â&#x20AC;? said head coach Tad Berkowitz. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I thought the guys did a great job of rallying and coming together and just competing really hard.â&#x20AC;? With help from Geoff Embry and Jason Zafiros in singles action last weekend, the Wildcatsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; newfound confidence will be a key part of securing the victory. Both USC and UCLA will come fighting into this weekend with their heavy stacked arsenal of singles players. Trojan sophomore Steven Johnson is currently ranked No. 1 in the country for singles and is one of nine singles players ranked in the top 120. The fury of Los Dos Andres, the doubles team comprised of Andres Carrasco and Andres Arango, will be able to give Arizona some added momentum this weekend based on its win over Washingtonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s No. 65 team of Tobi Obenaus and Alex Rosinski last weekend. â&#x20AC;&#x153;(Carrasco and Arango are) our emotional leaders,â&#x20AC;? Berkowitz said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It seems like in all of the good wins that we have had this year, they are the guys that really stepped up for us. Those guys should have a lot of confidence because they have been playing well.â&#x20AC;? Berkowitz also commented that Ravid Hazi is a strong factor for the Wildcats with his high energy levels on both the singles and doubles courts. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We look to those guys as the on-court leaders of the team,â&#x20AC;?Berkowitz said.â&#x20AC;&#x153;They do a good job setting the tone with the high energy level and the emotion that they play with.â&#x20AC;? Although USC and UCLA are top programs, the Wildcats remain confident heading into the weekend.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re playing two of the best programs in the country with USC and UCLA, but we welcome the challenge, and we feel that we can put it together,â&#x20AC;? Berkowitz said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;When all our guys can play at one particular time, then at home, we can beat anybody.â&#x20AC;?

Women poised to keep momentum after a successful weekend With solid wins in both matches over the weekend, the No. 56 Arizona womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s tennis team returns to Southern California again this weekend when it takes on the No. 8 UCLA Bruins and No. 17 USC Trojans. â&#x20AC;&#x153;UCLA and USC are top-notch programs,â&#x20AC;? head coach Vicky Maes said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They have certainly been successful against us in the past several years, but we also have come close to beating them on different occasions. We need to remind ourselves that, any given day, they may be vulnerable enough for us to get the upper hand.â&#x20AC;? With improved play in both singles and doubles action over the weekend, the Wildcats (12-6, 1-4 Pac-10) look to lengthen their win column with their games against the Bruins (16-3, 3-1) and the Trojans (11-7, 3-1). Returning to conference play is never trivial, even if you are coming off a successful weekend, but the Wildcats hope to gain an edge with momentum, considering both USC and UCLA were saddled with tough losses over the past weekend. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We played smart last weekend, and that should help with confidence,â&#x20AC;? Maes said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;However, I know this is a different stage, and our girls will be going into it feeling differently too. The bottom line is that we need to keep our heads together, play solid and not try to go for too much.â&#x20AC;? No. 105 Natasha Marks and No. 84 Sarah Landsman in the one and two spots, respectively, will lead Arizonaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s charge. In Arizonaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s pair of convincing wins against California State University, Northridge and Loyola Marymount last weekend, Marks and Landsman remained undefeated. Their presence and poise in both singles and doubles action will need to continue this weekend if Arizona wants to come out on top. â&#x20AC;&#x153;As coaches, we know this team is capable of pulling an upset,â&#x20AC;? Maes said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It will be tough in their house, but we can do it if we stick together.â&#x20AC;?

On the road again

By Galo Mejia Arizona Daily Wildcat After a successful performance at the Jim Click Shootout last weekend, the Arizona track and field team will aim to carry that momentum into the weekend, when it splits up and heads to California for the UCLA Rafer Johnson/JJK Invitational, Tempe for the Sun Angel Classic and Mesa for the Mesa Classic. The Wildcatsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; showing at the Jim Click Shootout catapulted the Womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s team up 15 spots to 17th in the nation, while the men improved 36 spots and are now ranked 77th. Both teams are on the rise. The men will get some help in the form of freshman high jumper, Nick Ross, who will be competing for the first time this season. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is my first week back since the (knee) surgery, and it felt better. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll see how it holds out this weekend,â&#x20AC;? Ross said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is my third week out of surgery, and Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been in rehab all three weeks.â&#x20AC;? Ross isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t expected to make a big dent in the menâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s score, but his return is an added bonus, nonetheless. The team is excited to hit the road again and expects results because of it. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I feel like itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be a lot better since itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s an away meet. It feels more official,â&#x20AC;? said redshirt sophomore Echos Blevins. â&#x20AC;&#x153;A home meet feels more like practice to me.â&#x20AC;? Blevins will be headed to UCLA and will be competing in the 400-meter, 200-meter and the 4x400-meter relay.

Freshman Charlene Harber lands a jump during the Jim Click Shootout in Tucson on Sunday.

Four Arizona athletes will be heading to Tempe for the Sun Angel Classic and Mesa for the Mesa Classic. Freshman Ariel Coleman and sophomores Rebecca Nelson and Jordan Ronstadt will be competing in the womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 400m hurdles at both meets. Coleman will also be competing in the 100m hurdles at both tracks. Freshman Jake Harris will

be competing in the menâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 110m hurdles at Sun Angel, while freshman Michael Ness will be competing in the menâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 400m at the Mesa Classic. Freshman Tara Besancon will be competing in the womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s high jump in Mesa. The distance squad wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be traveling this weekend in order to prepare themselves for Mt. Sac next week.

Softball

Early and often, key for Wildcats

continued from page 6 And though they racked up 17 hits in two games against UTEP Wednesday, the Wildcats arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t expecting to light up the scoreboard at a comparable rate against the Huskies. They realize theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll have to be patient. They also realize theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll have to be ready to jump on the few opportunities that arise. â&#x20AC;&#x153;From here on out, every

at-bat is crucial for us because the pitching is going to get tougher and you have to earn everything you get,â&#x20AC;? Candrea said.â&#x20AC;&#x153;You got to be ready.Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re going to get one good pitch at an at-bat, and you have to be ready to pull the trigger.Â â&#x20AC;&#x153; The feeling on the field after the two-game UTEP sweep wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t one of overconfidence

after drubbing the Miners. Instead, it was a sense of urgency and a full-speedahead approach. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not really momentum,â&#x20AC;? freshman Brigette Del Ponte said of beating the Miners.â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not the type of pitching weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll see this upcoming weekend. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re antsy about going up against Danielle Lawrie.â&#x20AC;?

Softball: No. 2 Arizona at No. 1 Washington With Kenzie Fowler’s Nolan Ryan-esque outing against UTEP on Wednesday, it’s hard to argue against Arizona’s ability to perform. Unless its opponent happens to be the No. 1 team in the country. The No. 1 Washington Huskies have been almost perfect on the year, and Arizona’s abysmal 11-1 loss at ASU left the Wildcats’ future potential more questionable than Tiger Woods’ cell phone usage at the Masters.

Washington wins series 2-1

Predicting the score of a collegiate softball game is a tricky thing. There really is no exact science to it. It’s comparable to predicting how many tattoos Jesse James’ next mistress will have and, more importantly, how many of those tattoos will be on her face. It’s really anybody’s guess. My prediction is that the next girl to come forward most definitely has at least one face tattoo. Personally, I’m hoping it’s a butterfly one, too. Sorry Sandra, at least you will always have “Miss Congeniality 3” to look forward to. Arizona wins series 2-1

Washington is good — really good. After winning it all last year, the Huskies are just as strong this year, and the Wildcats will have a chance to take over first in the Pac-10 this weekend if they can win the series. The games will be close, but UA only gets one from the Huskies.

Washington wins series 2-1

Baseball: Arizona at Washington This season, Arizona baseball has proven itself with its 15-game winning streak in March, and Kurt Heyer’s return on Friday will be welcomed, just as long as somebody gives him a helmet to wear while pitching. Heyer’s Cy Young-like numbers will be enough to fend off the Washington Huskies — 9-1 in last 10 games — and as long as the rest of the staff can follow suit, Arizona should be successful this weekend. Arizona wins series 2-1

The article this week about third baseman Seth Mejias-Brean really got me reflecting on high school, since Seth and I both went to Cienega High School in Tucson. While you may think because he was a star tri-athlete in football, basketball and baseball, that he was the top dog. Well, you would be wrong. The ladies definitely preferred my three-way status in television knowledge, blogging and watching guys like Seth play. They called me the total package. Derek 1, Seth 0

As Kurt Heyer goes, so does Arizona. Heyer is back on the mound after getting rocked by a 110 mph fastball to the dome against Cal, and a good start from him spells win for the Wildcats. Washington is solid, but I think UA’s bats wake back up and take two of three from the Huskies in Seattle.

Arizona wins series 2-1

NBA: Suns vs. Rockets The Suns are undefeated against the Rockets, and they should remain so after Sunday night. The “Steve Nash assisting anyone play” is an incredible force, and the Rockets won’t be able to contain him. Houston’s main threat lies with point guard Aaron Brooks, who should still be paying Chris Rock look-alike rights. But Nash should win the point-guard battle, and plus, Rockets forward Luis Scola looks too much like the creepy UPS guy from the commercials, and that is enough for me to pull for the Suns. Suns 115, Rockets 107

Chase Budinger and Jordan Hill make their triumphant return to Arizona as teammates. I’m sure Nic Wise will enjoy watching this game, since next year he will probably be playing in Kazakhstan. Hill is playing well despite Mike D’Antoni saying he isn’t even good enough to play for the Knicks. Ouch, that hurts, considering they still seem to play 500-pound Eddy Curry. No team is complete without a tall redhead who can hit the occasional three. Just ask Brian Scalabrine. Suns 120, Rockets 109

The second-place Phoenix Suns? As crazy as it sounds, it’s easy to believe, given the nature of the NBA’s Western Conference this year. But as a Suns fan, would you want to play the Spurs in the first round? Again? Either way, the Rockets are playing for pride at this point. Suns win by double digits.

Suns 114, Rockets 104

Gymcats ready for regionals By Kevin Nadakal Arizona Daily Wildcat There is a whiteboard in the gymnastics practice facility that reads: “One more practice give it all you got and then a little more!” The Arizona gymnastics team will begin its regional meet Saturday night at 7 in Los Angeles at UCLA’s Pauley Pavilion. The Gymcats have had two weeks to prepare for this meet with a bye week last week. The team has used that time to work on the details of its routines and to relax. “We had some really good days of

practice,” head coach Bill Ryden said. “I think it was nice to have a weekend off. The girls did a swimming condition on Saturday, but other than that, they had off to relax.” The Gymcats’ practice on Tuesday addressed the performance aspects of their routines. On Wednesday, for the last practice in Tucson before the team flies out to California, the Gymcats did their full routines. “It’s a great team atmosphere,” sophomore Britnie Jones said of practice. “We are really supporting each other and just trying to do the best we can.” Arizona is working on a few changes heading into regionals in hopes of

elevating their performance. Ryden discussed that freshman Mykle Douglas might jump back into the floor lineup. Douglas was taken out earlier this year because her routine was too simple and worth too few points. “We are at the point where — what do we have to lose?”said assistant coach Colleen Johnson. “We wouldn’t put in any upgrades that we would think would be a miss, but we are more willing to take that risk now.” The entire team seemed upbeat throughout practice. The Gymcats were constantly supporting each other and trying to help each other improve. “I feel really good about where

the team is at emotionally as well as physically,”Ryden said.“We are all ready. We would leave today if we could. This team is as ready as we have been in a long time, even with all the injuries.”

Sizing up the competition Arizona will have some tough competition heading into the regionals. Their bracket includes: UCLA, ASU, Arkansas, BYU and Iowa State. The Gymcats have already competed against UCLA, ASU and Arkansas this season, and lost to both UCLA and Arkansas. Currently, three of the teams in Arizona’s bracket are ranked higher than the Gymcats. UCLA, Arkansas and Iowa State

are ranked 3rd, 9th and 17th, respectively. Arizona is currently ranked 21st nationally. The Gymcats is trying not to let the rankings get to them, and instead, they hope to focus on themselves and what they can control. “(The team is) certainly capable,” Ryden said. “The Pac-10’s certainly proved to a point that we can compete. The ranking doesn’t matter, if we believe in each other and if we believe in the performance we will take whatever comes.” “It’s kind of like the basketball tournament; no one gave Butler a shot, but once you get in there, it doesn’t really matter,” Ryden added.

BASEBALL

UA seeks redemption against UW Huskies

continued from page 6

But the games aren’t played on paper, and Heyer, who was cleared to pitch tonight after passing all concussion tests earlier this week, said the team will get back to basics to get back in the win column. “We’re fired up because getting swept by a team that we should have beat — that should put a little steam in your gut,” Heyer said. “We’re going to get after it this weekend and put hits together, throw strikes, play good defense and we’re going to start another winning streak,” he added. An old baseball adage is that a team is only as good as the next day’s starting pitcher. When Heyer is on the mound, the Wildcats carry a presence that makes them tough to beat, and with their ace back tonight, Lopez is confident that getting back on the field will rid them of the bitter taste from last weekend. “They’ll be fine. It’s one weekend and you play eight or nine of them in conference play,” Lopez said. “I really think they’re looking forward to playing again.”

Ortega expected back

Arizona missed one of its veterans against Cal, as second baseman Bryce Ortega has been sidelined with back stiffness. Ortega told Lopez he felt “great” after receiving treatment earlier this week, and the 2009 All-Pac-10 junior is expected to travel with the team to Washington. “He really is an important cog, with some stability up the middle, and being an older guy,” Lopez said.

Rodney Haas/Arizona Daily Wildcat

Arizona junior second baseman Bryce Ortega hustles out of the box in a 9-3 victory over Oregon on March 26 at Sancet Stadium. After dealing with back stiffness for the last four games, Ortega is expected to return to the lineup this weekend when the Wildcats head to Washington to take on the Huskies.

Swimmer denies theft allegations Arizona Daily Wildcat The Arizona Daily Wildcat published a story Thursday, “UA swim accused of Red Bull theft,” in which it was reported that Darren Maxwell and Cory Chitwood, among others unidentified, allegedly stole approximately $288 of Red Bull from the Auld Dubliner on University Boulevard on March 31, according to Kevin Gilliam, manager of the bar. Maxwell and Chitwood were identified unofficially on surveillance tape by bar employees and the Daily Wildcat. The Daily Wildcat attempted to reach Chitwood, a current UA swimmer, and Maxwell, a former UA swimmer, by telephone earlier this week, but was unsuccessful. Chitwood said he was never contacted. Chitwood, however, spoke to the Daily Wildcat willingly Thursday and said he was at the bar during the incident but denied participating in the theft. “You had it right with Darren, but I’m pretty sure he was the only one involved,” Chitwood said. “I don’t know the specifics of it. All I know is that I was definitely not the one who took the Red Bull.” The Auld Dubliner has not pressed charges against anybody.

Tragedy is invigorating. The initial sickness in your stomach, the wave of unsettling thoughts — they get your attention, forcing you to acknowledge the complexity of your grief. No matter how much the onset of agony rattles our psyche, catharsis fulfills a very basic human desire: To feel wholly alive. Matt Kindt’s heartbreaking graphic novel “3 Story”fulfills such a need. Broken into three stories, the graphic novel chronicles the life of Craig Pressgang, a man whose growth never ceases. Each story is narrated by a different woman in Craig’s life: his mother, his lover and his daughter. Seamlessly transposed, the women’s narratives forgo maudlin sensibilities in favor of raw pain. Each woman is broken by Craig’s ailment, suffering the ever-growing distance caused by Craig’s size. All three have no choice but to become part of Craig’s life — his mother bore him, his lover fell for him and his daughter was born to him. Their mutual odyssey plays with the basic notion of fate, suggesting that it is not a serendipitous creature, but rather, a cruel decree. The women persevere as companions to Craig almost as a reaction to their perpetual anxiety. While Craig’s condition presents the women with an excuse to resort to histrionics and subservience, each one fights for a genuine connection. But their world just isn’t made for that sort of thing. It isn’t only the women in Craig’s life who suffer. Craig’s entire world is fragile. Buildings, cities and even other people lack the infrastructure to survive a walking monument. The loneliness of Craig’s existence is matched only by the destruction he causes. Kindt, who wrote and illustrated the graphic novel, does not shy away from this devastation, presenting images and musings of only the most melancholy type. Blistering asides and brief anecdotes flash across the pages, reminders of static-laden television sets and distorted telephone calls. Against the backdrop of the mid-20th century, Craig’s life trudges onward, a vessel as only could be built during the nuclear age. Tormented faces are rendered in a crudely applied bastardization of Pop art. Kindt’s illustrations are shaded pastels; glossy hues of joy, shrouded by the misty uncertainty of Craig’s

fate. The world that Kindt creates is not unlike our own. It shines on a first glance, but dissolves under the unspoken terrors of mortality and an uncontrollable future. Kindt maximizes Craig’s narrative arc with casual allusions to his somewhat illustrious career. Advertisements for Craig’s artwork and newspaper clippings of his early sports career make brief appearances like snapshots in a photo album. These momentary intrusions of non-narrated storytelling mirror Craig’s unwelcome entrance into the world around him. Kindt’s narrative merges Craig’s public

and private lives; two dead-ends coalescing into one endless, desolate road. “3 Story”has an overbearing sense of finality: Life will hurt you again and again. This moral is neither fun nor pleasant. Yet within the constant drive of the three heroines to connect — even if only for a moment — lies a striking belief in the human condition, one that excites, exhilarates and ultimately exonerates“3 Story”from the genre of melodrama. It also makes you proud to be alive.

As of Thursday, there are roughly 120 people in the tournament, making this year’s event larger than last year’s. Each team consists of three chasers, two beaters, one keeper, one seeker and, typically, three substitutes. The chasers (who will wear neon green capes) try to get the Quaffle — aka volleyball — through the hoops to score points for their team. When a team gets a Quaffle through a hoop, it gets 10 points. The beaters (who will wear dark green capes) chuck Bludgers — aka Nerf Balls — at the opposite team to keep them from scoring. The keeper (who will wear a gray cape) blocks the chasers from the opposite team from getting a Quaffle through the hoop. The seeker (who will wear a purple cape) tries to catch the golden Snitch — aka racquetball — to earn 150 points and

end the game. Each game lasts about 15 minutes or until the Snitch is caught. This year, teams were able to register online at http://uaquidditch.com, thanks to Matt Justice, a computer science freshman and director of operations for Coconino Hall. Each team represents a different dorm on campus, having at least half of the team residing in that dorm. Quidditch probably isn’t the first sport you’d associate with a college campus. Many people can’t wrap their head around how the wizard sport is going to be translated in the real world. “One of the biggest questions is how’re we going to handle the Snitch,” said Stacey Taubel, a resident assistant for Coconino and an adviser for the Hall Council. “It’s going to be a monkey in the middle kind of thing. We’re going to have two players throwing a golden ball back and forth and the Harry Potter character has to try and get it.” The UA Quidditch program is just one of many leagues registered with the Intercollegiate Quidditch Association.

Today, more than 200 organizations around the world play in the league. “I’m just really excited to see how into it people get,”Taubel said.“There are definitely those ‘Harry Potter’ fanatics.”
