Victim: ‘Happy I’m living today’ By Michelle A. Monroe ARIZONA DAILY WILDCAT Peter Raisanen, nutritional sciences senior, is the 25-yearold who was taken to the hospital with life-threatening injuries on Tuesday after being hit by a streetlight. The 19-year-old driver of a maroon Jeep Cherokee was heading east on Sixth Street approaching Highland Avenue. There was a green traffic light for cars traveling from east to west, and one vehicle was attempting to turn

ribs. He is expected to leave the hospital in a day or two and continue his care at home. Doctors say he will make a full recovery. “I’ve been doing fantastic. I guess doctors and nurses have said I’m very optimistic and positive about this; probably a couple more days and then I’ll be at home,” Raisanen said. He won’t be able to attend classes or work as a teaching assistant for the rest of the semester. “I’m so happy I have the professors and teachers that I have.

south onto Highland Avenue, said Sgt. David Fernandez, a Tucson Police Department officer who was at the scene of the accident. The vehicle stopped in the middle of the road as pedestrians were walking in the crosswalk. The Cherokee went onto the sidewalk and hit a pole in an attempt to avoid hitting the stopped vehicle. The Cherokee knocked the pole over, and it hit Raisanen. Raisanen has four crushed vertebrae and several broken

They’ve come visited me, they make me feel so good to be who I am,” Raisanen said. “My teacher and professors are amazing.” He will continue the two outside studies that he’s been working on with a pediatrician. “I will definitely be doing those — those are on my own time, not school credit at all — they’re all for awesome fun and I do those on my own every week,” Raisanen said. “I’ll definitely be working on those now that I’m not at school for the rest of the semester, ‘cause it gives

extra time to focus on the extra things on my life.” The driver went to the hospital to visit Raisanen. “I’m happy that the man, young lad, who hit the post came and talked to me,” Raisanen said. “He’s a very sincere young gentleman.” Overall, he remains positive about the situation. “I don’t deserve anything from any day and anything that’s given to me is a blessing,” he said. “I’m just happy I’m living today, that I can be there.”

School struggles with UAccess By Yael Schusterman ARIZONA DAILY WILDCAT

Some students and advisers share frustrations with the university’s new web service tool, UAccess. Interdisciplinary studies senior Meredith Hottinger said she thought it was easier to find classes on the older system, and the new search process can be more complex and time consuming. A perk, however, she said, is having all of your information on one page, for instance how much money you owe the university, when your priority registration is and other helpful links listed together. Hottinger did not watch the video tutorials when the new system launched, but she said the best way for a student to learn is by exploring the site. “UAccess is just something to get used to,” she said. R. Scott Johnson, director of academic advising and student services for the College of Social and Behavioral Sciences, said he did not use WebReg that much but he is familiar with the system. He said he thinks UAccess has a lot going for it in terms of the capability, but it is a big system requiring a lot to learn

UA students and community members walk to raise funds for HIV/AIDS awareness and testing for the Southern Arizona AIDS Foundation during the 2008 campus AIDSWalk. This year’s organizers hope to raise over $180,000 to support SAAF programs.

Thousands expected at AIDSWalk By Abigail Richardson ARIZONA DAILY WILDCAT Thousands of people will be participating in the Tucson AIDSWalk, which is taking place on the UA campus in order to raise money for those affected by HIV/AIDS on Sunday. This will be the 22nd annual AIDSWalk and its fourth year taking place on the UA campus. The Southern Arizona AIDS Foundation, which is putting on the event, said proceeds will

go to the Tucson community through providing services such as HIV testing, prevention programs, food programs and medical assistance. SAAF’s goal is to have 6,000 registered walkers and to raise over $180,000. “There is a lot of diversity,” said Monique Vallery, the events coordinator. “It’s a very familyfriendly event. For some people, it will be their first AIDSWalk and there are others who will be doing their 22nd.”

Vallery expects anywhere from 500 to 1,000 people to register for the event and about 5,000 to 6,000 people to attend. “Our end goal is to get as many people registered as possible,” she said. “We want to communicate year-round with them to get them to volunteer with other things we do. Someone volunteering their time is just as much a treasure as someone who donates money.” People can register for the AIDSWalk online or during the

event, which will begin at 7 a.m. “This year, right now as far as pre-registration we don’t have as many walkers yet, but the walkers we do have are giving more,” Vallery said. “It balances it out. We want to have as many people there as we can and have as many registered walkers to help them find other ways to get involved, to be able to give back and to give them recognition.” Those registered for the event AIDSWALK, page 6

TriCats Ryan McAbee, a regional development junior, and Hannah Morgan, a junior majoring in special education, pedal their bicycles on the UA Mall on Wednesday. After their 36-hour fundraising event, they hope to have gathered resources for Soles for Souls and The Live Strong Foundation, and money to cover their travel expenses to the April 2011 Triathalon Collegiate National Championships.

QUICK HITS

Free screening of “The Invisibles,” an event featuring screenings of student-produced films, at The Screening Room, 127 E. Congress St., 7 p.m.

Guitar Hero, studying and computer games are all things the UA TriCats like to do on their bikes. For 36 hours, the TriCats , UA’s triathlon team, pedaled in place on the UA Mall to raise money to go to the USA Triathlon Collegiate National Championship in Tuscaloosa, Ala., next April . Members of the team cycled in shifts from 8 a.m. Wednesday to 8 p.m. Thursday. Shifts lasted anywhere from two to six hours, depending on how long the member wanted to ride. For the TriCats the fundraiser isn’t just a fundraiser, it’s a party. “It’s definitely a party on the

bike,” said UA TriCat President Mike Shufeldt. “Especially when it gets to about 4 a.m. and you’re delirious, it becomes more and more of a party.” The team had movies playing the entire time in order to keep from being bored. Briana Nute, UA TriCat member and finance junior, describes being on the bike as second nature because of how much they ride. “Pretty much anything you can think of, I think the TriCats tried it,” Shufeldt said about members multitasking while biking. Some TriCats sat up straight to play Guitar Hero while others balanced laptops on their handlebars, all the while carrying on conversations with each

other and those who walked by. People were also able to challenge the TriCats for a dollar and had the opportunity to guess how many jellybeans were in a water bottle in order to win the bottle. In addition to raising money for nationals, the TriCats also collected shoes for Soles for Souls . Alan Cordero, a nutritional science graduate student and TriCats member, likes that the fundraiser allows people to see what they do. “It’s fun to actually be on campus and ride our bikes. We get to dress up and not look so weird hopefully,” Cordero said. “It’s a little odd to wear spandex on campus when you aren’t on a bike.”

News Tips

Angelina Bravo

journalism sophomore What do you think about October being the longest month in the history of the year 2010? I think it is dreadful. I have so much to do with schoolwork. It’s in the middle of the semester with papers, midterms, work, school. It’s hard. It’s extremely hard. Plus, you have to come up with different things to do on the five Fridays, five Saturdays, and five Sundays of the October weekends. Exactly, it is so rough you never know what is going to happen, and it is the peak of your semester so you have to do good with school, you have to do good with your social life; it is extremely difficult to maintain and keep up. What is something you do to relax? Some people do yoga, some do drugs, some eat ice cream everyday, what do you do? I go hiking with my roommates, weekly. We go twice a week, Tuesdays and Thursdays, so we can bond and maintain our fitness a tad, and for October we look for Halloween costumes up ‘till the last day. What are some of the prospective costume ideas? We were thinking of being the Fantana girls, but no store has those so we are going to be M&M’s. That’s really hot. Living with multiple girls can be dramatic. What is the most dramatic thing that has happened between you and your roommates? There were snakes we found, under our complex. It was terrifying we were running around all over the place. When there is a bug in the complex, no one wants to take it out and kill it so we all run around like little girls, screaming. So who saves the day? Ashley, she’s brave. She got a paper and a cup, the old fashioned way, and took it outside. Would you rather have your house be infested with rats or with cockroaches? Wow, I think cockroaches because they wouldn’t poop everywhere. Would you rather eat a cockroach or a scorpion? Why are you asking me about these terrifying creatures? I don’t want to eat them and will never do it. What if it was covered in chocolate? I’m stickin’ with M&M’s. — Caroline Nachazel

Your love could be a drug That rush of good feelings you have in the first few months of being in love don’t just put you in a better mood; love may actually be a painkiller, researchers suggest in a new study in the journal PLoS ONE. “Finding pleasure in activities, and with the one you’re with, can have multiple benefits, including reducing your pain,” said senior author Dr. Sean Mackey, chief of the Division of Pain Management at Stanford University School of Medicine. The study looked at 15 undergraduates — both men and women — between ages 19 and 21, all of

whom were in the “early phases of passionate love,” having been in a relationship anywhere from a few months to a year. This is a small sample size, but not unusual for a study involving functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI). The magnitude of pain relief when participants thought about their beloved was comparable to morphine and other clinical painkillers, Mackey said. However, he cautioned that this is not a study about chronic pain, merely pain applied for 30 seconds at a time in an artificial setting. Distraction involves high level cortical systems that are involved

with conducting tasks, Mackey said. Love, on the other hand, involves systems dependent on dopamine, a brain chemical that causes us to feel good and crave things. The dopamine rush also happens upon eating a piece of chocolate, or, in more extreme forms, taking a hit of cocaine or heroin. Drugs that directly engage this brain chemical tend to be highly addictive, he said. The results suggest that thinking about your beloved and having a non-love-related distraction lower the perception of pain.. – TheChart-CNN.com

Today’s birthday A power figure has tried to dominate recently. The coming year provides the potential to work with your current team and maintain independence at the same time. You may choose to work from home, at least part time. Stay in touch with valued associates. Aries (March 21 - April 19) — Today is an 8 — Focus your conscious attention on significant others, and manage scheduling any work issues. You might indulge a hidden desire to break loose. Taurus (April 20 - May 20) — Today is a 7 — A dramatic argument requires all your creativity to resolve. The fireworks don’t hurt anyone. Put out lingering sparks with ice cream and soft words. Gemini (May 21 - June 21) — Today is a 9 — As you put the pieces of a project together, your imagination transforms the goal as well as the results. Take the path less traveled. Cancer (June 22 - July 22) — Today is a 7 — Introduce a new idea carefully, if you want cooperation from everyone on your team. Include enough details to ensure understanding. Add spice. Leo (July 23 - Aug. 22) — Today is a 6 — Someone wants to run away and join the circus. Encourage them to think it through carefully: It may not be as much fun as it seems. Create something exciting at home instead. Virgo (Aug. 23 - Sept. 22) — Today is a 6 — What seemed impossible last month suddenly comes together with ease. Your hard work pays off. You sought independence, and now you have it.

Libra (Sept. 23 - Oct. 22) — Today is a 7 — Your individual interest and family demands require careful planning, if everyone is to get what they want. No detail’s too small to consider. Scorpio (Oct. 23 - Nov. 21) — Today is an 8 — You get more done today working from home. Use the travel time you save to create harmony and to complete artistic family projects. Sagittarius (Nov. 22 - Dec. 21) — Today is a 6 — Send flowers. Be sure to include everyone’s name on the gift card. Bigger is better, to make a powerful impression. It pays off later. Capricorn (Dec. 22 - Jan. 19) — Today is a 7 — Positive feedback makes you feel better about a project that’s just started. Associates volunteer to help get things rolling. Accept their aid. Aquarius (Jan. 20 - Feb. 18) — Today is a 7 — A dream gets confirmed by a long-distance call. Because the answer is yes, you’re able to move forward confidently. All systems go. Pisces (Feb. 19 - March 20) — Today is a 7 — A male wants to take the show on the road before the rest of you are ready. To slow down the process, ask for an extended break in the action.

Student gov centers on national elections By Jazmine Woodberry ARIZONA DAILY WILDCAT ASUA has a stake in the political game — and not just for its own elections in March. The Associated Students of the University of Arizona wants to push students to get involved in voting by supporting campus debates and voting accessibility, “There was such buzz (around the 2008 election) that we had lines out the door,” said ASUA President Emily Fritze. “It’s always more of a struggle to vote around midterm elections.” Fritze, who publicized sponsored debates on her blog, felt that emphasizing the connectivity of students with their representatives was important to the process. The first ASUA-hosted debate was Wednesday’s open Congressional District 7 debate

UACCESS

continued from page 1

at the Pima Community College Desert Vista campus, in which all four district candidates, incumbent Democrat Raul Grijalva, Republican Ruth McClung, Libertarian George Keane and independent Harley Meyer, attended. Fritze noted students who care about their representatives will have an easy time accessing those they might be voting for through campus debates. She also noted that providing the early polling station in the ASUA office was a way to get students excited about the process. “The good thing about the polling station is that we have a great relationship with the Pima County Recorder’s Office,” Fritze said. Christopher Roads, deputy recorder and registrar of voters at the Pima County Recorder’s Office, noted that since the mid-2000s the early voting place on campus has

served a population in need of a closer place to vote. “What we have done is looked at the population in geographic regions and put the early voting sites

CAMPUS POLLS Who: For further information or questions please contact ASUA at 621-2782 What: Early polling site for the general elections When: Until Oct. 29 from 9 a.m. – 5 p.m., Monday through Friday. Where: The ASUA Office, on the third floor of the Student Union Memorial Center.

Students, advisers find new registration system frustrating

and understand. All of the features and their limitations are where some of the frustrations come in. Rather than video tutorials, advisers had training classes they attended. Johnson has become more successful with the system through trial and error. He finds the enrollment shopping cart and being able to implement prerequisites to be especially helpful features. “Frustrations in terms of evaluating and transfer credit or making course substitutions for students is very cumbersome and it takes a lot more time than it used to,” Johnson said. He said he has not had to do much hand-registering for students, but he knows that because some advisers are not confident with using the tool they may find it easier to handregister as opposed to learn new parts of the system. “I don’t necessarily think either students or advisers are happy with the new academic adviser reports. They are lengthy and more difficult to read, both students and advisers have shared this frustration,” he said. A problem he experienced this week as he enrolled athletes and veterans was setting permission for students to be able to enroll in courses and then not

knowing why it was not working. He said the easiest solution is to register students instead of figuring out where the problem is. “My hope would be that as people are getting more comfortable with it, it will work better and people will feel better about it,” he said. Suellyn Hull , co-director for the UAccess student administration project, explained the system is still new to many students and advisers. Advisers are providing a great service to students who may be having difficulty finding classes they need or understanding which classes have requirements that the student needs to meet before they can enroll she said. “As students become more aware of the advanced features and as we make improvements based on adviser and student comments, students may choose to use the self-service features more often,” Hull said. She said she has received complaints from both students and advisers, which is typical for any new system, because change can be difficult. “We are working with several groups on campus to identify concerns and prioritize improvements to the system,” Hull said. “A student administrative team will continue to work

within University Information Technology Services to improve and upgrade the system.” Hull said she believes the new system is here to stay because it provides more services, flexibility, and information. This is the second priority registration with the new system, and students had the same number of course hours at the end of the priority registration period in the spring semester as they had using the old WebReg system, Hull said. She added there was also a positive increase in the response time for students using the new system over WebReg. She will continue to track the results as priority registration continues. A new feature in UAccess is the check eligibility feature. It was implemented as a response to students’ concern that they could not tell if they met the requirements for courses in their shopping carts until their enrollment appointment time. The reaction to this program during the open lab for students last week was positive, Hull said. If students use the Plan feature to put classes in their shopping cart, they can now immediately check if they are eligible to take the course and make arrangements or if they need other permissions before their enrollment appointment.

where we have very large populations,” Roads said when speaking of not supplying a polling place for primary voting in September. “There was a huge population in the middle of town, particularly around the campus (and) east of campus, which (other polling places) could not serve … and people said, ‘That kind of fit perfectly with our needs.’” Frtize encouraged students to vote early in the office because the requirements were less stringent than at voting centers on the day of the elections. All students, faculty, and the community that want to utilize the early voting center can cast their ballot with only a name and a signature. Roads said the early voting sites are designed to make voting more convenient so more people will vote. Around campus, Roads said, “there is a big population … and

also the people that tend to vote the least.” He encouraged people to vote early also because the November ballot is filled with many propositions and legislative initiatives to consider. This polling place “is an element of UA Votes 2010, a semester-long campaign focusing on voter registration, education and mobilization. This campaign is a part of the statewide Arizona Student Vote Coalition where ASUA and student governments across the state are working with the Arizona Students’ Association and Arizona PIRG to civically engage students,” according to an ASUA press release from earlier this month. The next debate sponsored by ASUA will occur on campus on Monday between Congressional District 8 candidates Democrat Gabrielle Giffords and Republican Jesse Kelly.

Young voters vent annoyance in MTV forum MCCLATCHY TRIBUNE WASHINGTON — If Democrats are counting on young and minority voters to keep them in power in next month’s elections, the under-30 audience at a nationally televised youth forum Thursday showed President Barack Obama that they’re feeling dissatisfied, too. Over the course of the hourlong event hosted by Viacom networks MTV, BET and CMT, Obama took one critical question after another from among the 225 young men and women in the studio audience and thousands more sending their thoughts via Twitter. A young Republican woman from Austin, Texas, in the audience, kicked things off, saying she had “very much respected” his pledge in his 2008 campaign for more bipartisanship but “to be frank, when all was said and done, I don’t think that actually happened.” A young man from Mississippi thought Obama was too soft on illegal immigration. A young man from Washington said despite the bailouts and stimulus, unemployment’s still above 9 percent and college graduates can’t find work. “Why should we still support you going forward with your monetary and economic policies, and if the economy does not improve over the next two years, why should we vote you back in?” Viewers were asked to send in via Twitter their greatest hopes or fears. Two messages were read aloud to the president: “My greatest fear is that we are turning into a Communist country” and “My greatest fear is that Obama will be re-elected.” Obama mostly took it all in stride, although the criticism got under his skin a couple of times. He said his administration’s policies didn’t cause the recession and had staved off a second Great Depression. He also said

that “taxes aren’t higher” than they were when he took office. One woman quizzed Obama on why he hadn’t yet ended the “don’t ask, don’t tell” policy banning openly gay Americans from military service. Her question came on the same day the Obama administration appealed a federal judge’s ruling that the military must stop enforcing the 17-year-old policy. Obama wants gays to be able to openly serve but defended his team’s steps, saying, “Congress explicitly passed a law that took away the power of the executive branch to end this policy unilaterally so this is not a situation in which with a stroke of a pen I can simply end the policy.” He added that, “It has to be done in a way that is orderly, because we are involved in a war right now ... This policy will end, and it will end on my watch.” Not everyone had an ax to grind. Some just wanted to tell Obama about their experiences, including a young woman awaiting her green card and victims of Internet bullying, domestic violence and poor schools. Others wanted to know more about his feelings. Does he think sexual identity is a choice? “I don’t think it’s a choice,” Obama said. “I think people are born with a certain makeup and that we’re all children of God.” On a question about racial tensions, Obama blamed the economy, saying that people out of work or afraid of losing their homes become more worried “about what other folks are doing, and sometimes that organizes itself around kind of a tribal attitude, and issues of race become more prominent.” He said the racially diverse audience, though, puts those problems in perspective. “This audience just didn’t exist 20 years ago,” he said.

MAILBAG Left turn arrows needed at dangerous intersections

Stoops over hoops

I was horrified to learn of the accident that occurred at the corner of Sixth Street and Highland Avenue on Oct. 12 (“UA Student Suffers Life-Threatening Injuries After Car Accident”). The incident made it tragically clear that the design of the intersection poses a serious threat to the safety of those passing through it. When making a left turn, motor vehicles must wait for that magic moment at which there is a pause in both vehicular and pedestrian traffic. During peak hours, that moment may never arrive, and a would-be benign left turn can transform an unassuming intersection into a zone rife with danger. It is harrowing enough that pedestrians assume so much risk when legally crossing a street; for us to feel a sense of dread while simply standing on a sidewalk is absolutely unacceptable. We cannot wait for another tragedy to occur before we take action to make the campus area a safer place in which to travel. I hope that the community will join me in demanding that a turn arrow be installed at Sixth Street and Highland Avenue and all other high-risk intersections. Additionally, it is imperative that all individuals — no matter their mode of transportation — consistently obey traffic laws and take extra precautions to ensure the security of themselves and those around them.

The balance between the two major revenue-producing sports of football and basketball at the University of Arizona is a fun debate. It is simply too much fun to rant “Stoops over hoops.” During this recent momentum swing in the football direction we have hosted ESPN’s College Gameday, showcasing our beautiful university (only to be tarnished in the last two minutes of the game, don’t get me started), won a bowl game, finished second in the Pac-10 and plans are underway to renovate Arizona Stadium. No doubt, the men’s basketball program is in great hands with head coach Sean Miller and I’m not here to disrespect the decades of excellence in basketball. I came to school here partly because of the big-time basketball to support. However, football is clearly on the rise and the ZonaZoo needs to come along for the ride. Stay the whole game, be loud and proud; and if you’re not going to support the team through the ups and downs, don’t come. No longer are we hearing chants of “basketball season.” As long as we continue to progress on the football field, we will continue to gain national respect. The retiring of the jerseys of some of the UA’s great football players later this season is a big step in taking football more seriously on campus. Maybe with the history of “Desert Swarm Defense” and defensive backs such as Chuck Cecil and Antoine Cason, one day we can become known as “Secondary U.”

Does ‘Fat Talk Free Day’ help anyone? If you don’t like ‘fat talk,’ stop responding to it

Day peddled big fat lies

usually don’t care enough to say something about it in newsprint when the big UA in the sky spends my tuition and fees on something stupid, but this is unacceptable. An event was hosted on the UA Mall on Wednesday called “Fat Talk Free Day,” a thinly veiled push for soaps and lotions by Dove and it’s “Campaign for Real Beauty.” Their mission? To destroy “fat talk.” The Tuesday UA News article describing the event defined “fat talk” as a “type of talk typically exchanged by women, detailing how much weight they have lost or gained and how their clothing fits or doesn’t.” Speaking at the campaign Wednesday evening was — big shocker here — a professional model. She spoke about combating what Lori Van Buggenum, program director for the Women’s Resource Center, described in the article as “unrealistic images of women and men in the media that, for the most part, promote a very narrow box of what it means to be beautiful: thin, tall and white, oftentimes.” I find it hard to believe that any company that sells beauty products would be the least bit concerned about eliminating the personal neurosis that drives their customers to spend more money. I don’t like their rhetoric, either. It’s regressive and it’s not honest. Think about it. We live in an extremely shallow and materialistic culture. We judge people by their appearance because we are hard-wired to make snap judgments. We can’t help it. We were indoctrinated into the system from an early age.

on their perceived attractiveness is manipulative. It’s just not realistic. Why can’t we be honest with ourselves and admit that beauty is just what Ms. Van Buggenum wishes it wasn’t: “a very narrow box”? Beauty, by definition, is an evaluation both exclusive and comparative. If everything is beautiful, than what is beauty? Where is the objective standard? What is the aesthetic? That’s just how it works. Besides, people obsessing over being thin is just a product of our culture. The times when women of a larger size were the societal standard for beauty are not even a century old, and the obsession with thinness isn’t even an international standard. America is all about competition, winning and losing, and leveraging your strengths toward achieving your goals. It seems like it would be a lot more straightforward to just accept that there are societal standards for what looks “good.” Then your motivations for being skinny or not can just be related to how important that is to your success in life. How attractive do you honestly need to be to be happy? That’s the sort of question we should be able to ask ourselves without it seeming like anything more than a genuine selfevaluation of what your appearance means to you and those around you. Instead, Dove promotes a delusion where the rest of the world conforms to your perception of beauty because of an extremely positive attitude: “Thanks for telling me that I’m beautiful on the inside and outside, Dove Corporation. Here’s some money in exchange for your lotions and soap.” I don’t buy it. — Remy Albillar is a senior majoring in English and creative writing. He can be reached at letters@wildcat.arizona.edu.

Officer detains man for psych evaluation

A University of Arizona Police Department officer went to the UA Main Library to check a man’s welfare on Monday. The man had no UA affiliation, but was in the Information Commons using a computer. The UAPD officer was called to check the welfare of a man whose cousin had requested police assistance at 8:19 p.m. The cousin said the man had a history of mental illness, had been diagnosed as bipolar and was no longer taking his medication. His family stated they felt the man was a danger to himself because he had posted some statements on Facebook that concerned them. In one post, the man asked all his friends for a dollar so that he wouldn’t have to hurt himself. A little later, he was upset because no one had sent him a dollar and he made another statement saying he was going to die. The family also believed the man could be dangerous to others because he had once had an argument with another family member almost turn violent when he attempted to hit them. A UAPD officer spoke with him for 15 to 20 minutes in the library. The man indicated he did have some mental problems in the past but was currently doing fine. He said he had no intentions of hurting himself or anybody else. He said his comments on Facebook were just a joke and that he meant nothing by them. The man said he stopped taking his medication because he did not like the way they made him feel. The man also said he did not wish to go to the hospital and was willing to talk to his family members to discuss things in order to clear everything up. Afterwards, UAPD officers left the library and explained what had happened to his family members. They said they were still worried about his mental state. At 11:15 p.m. the family called UAPD again and indicated that they had obtained a court order to commit the man to a hospital. The officer went back to the library and spoke with the man a second time. His family had filled out the emergency order for evaluation and a notary signed it, but it was not an actual court order. The family stated the Southern Arizona Mental Health Corporation indicated the order was grounds to detain the subject and place him in the hospital. The officer questioned the authority of the document and contacted SAMHC. A caseworker for SAMHC indicated the subject needed to be brought to the hospital to be evaluated but could not cite the statute that gave police the authority to forcibly remove the subject and transport him. The officer contacted a branch of University Medical Center and spoke with the psychiatrist on call. Due to the man’s prior mental health issues and the statements on Facebook, the psychiatrist said the man did need to be transported to a hospital for evaluation. Based on the doctor’s request under his authority, the officer took the man into custody. The man was upset but cooperative and was placed into custody without any incident. They transported the man to St. Mary’s Hospital for further evaluation.

Most UA Students Drink Less

Fast Facts CAMPUS HEALTH

FOR KEEPS

Two UA students were referred to the Dean of Students Office for possession of marijuana at the east side of Arizona Stadium on Monday. A UAPD officer was driving through the east side of the stadium while on patrol at 9:56 p.m. when he smelled burning marijuana. As he drove south, the smell got stronger. The officer then drove near a man and woman sitting at a table. The man got nervous and began moving his hands furtively. The officer got out of his patrol car and asked the man and woman to identify themselves. After they did so, the man showed the officer a half-rolled joint. The officer placed the marijuana into evidence and advised the man and woman they were being referred to the Dean of Students Office.

Driver doesn’t ‘know what’s going on’

A man was arrested for DUI of the slightest degree and booked at Pima County Jail on Saturday. While a UAPD officer was stopped at a stop sign at 11:19 p.m., he noticed a pickup truck traveling east without its lights on. The truck sped right past the officer, who began following the vehicle. As the truck accelerated, the officer saw that it still did not have its lights on. It came to a stop, and when it turned onto a different street, the driver had the lights turned on. The officer activated the patrol car’s lights and initiated a traffic stop. The officer approached the vehicle and made contact with a man who had red, watery eyes. He asked him if he knew why he was being pulled over, to which the driver said that he did not. The officer explained it was because he did not have his lights on. The man insisted his lights had been turned on the whole time he was driving. While the two spoke, the officer noticed a smell of intoxicants on the driver’s breath. When asked if he had been drinking, the man said no, and explained that he was coming from “the football game.” When the officer asked for his license and registration, the man was able to pull out his license with no problem, but poked his finger inaccurately at the button on the center console a few times when trying to retrieve the insurance and registration. The officer returned to the patrol car and ran a records check on the man. Another officer arrived at the scene and informed the driver that he had also seen him driving without his lights on. With the man out of his truck, officers could detect a strong smell of intoxicants coming from his mouth. While talking to the officer, the man often placed both hands in his front pockets. The officer asked the man to remove his hands. He refused. The officer then told the man that he needed to take his hands out his pockets for the officers’ safety. They asked him to put his hands behind his back. The man became argumentative and asked, “Why?” One of the officers took hold of his right wrist and put the man’s arm behind his back. As one officer did this, the man’s left hand came out of his pocket and he held it in the air above his head. The second officer assisted in handcuffing the man by taking control of his left hand and putting him in handcuffs. The man was placed under arrest for DUI of the slightest degree and transported to UAPD for a breath test. He refused to take it, so the officers called officers from the Tucson Police Department to come and assist in a blood test draw on him. While waiting for the warrant to be issued the man said to the officer, “I am you. I am all you. You can write it all.” He also said, “You are barking up the wrong tree. Nothing is here.” TPD officers secured a search warrant for the man’s blood and the blood draw process was started at 1:03 a.m. The man requested the option to have an independent test done at his own expense. The two UAPD officers took the man to UMC. The blood draw was completed, the man received his results from UMC staff. As a nurse asked him a few questions, the man randomly exclaimed that he “did not know what was going on,” and “didn’t think this was fair.” He was taken to Pima Country Jail, where he was booked.

Military halts enforcement of gay ban after legal challenge McClatchy Tribune WASHINGTON — The Pentagon on Thursday halted enforcement of its “don’t ask, don’t tell” policy pending an appeal of a federal court order prohibiting the government from expelling gay and lesbian soldiers who disclose their sexual orientation. The Obama administration also on Thursday asked U.S. District Judge Virginia Phillips to stay her order, issued Tuesday. It’s unclear, however, whether Phillips will do so. The government last month asked her not to issue an injunction against “don’t ask, don’t tell” after she found that the 17-yearold policy, which bars gays and lesbians from disclosing their sexual orientation, violated service members’ First Amendment rights. Phillips, however, issued the injunction on Tuesday. If Phillips rejects the stay request, the government still could appeal to the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals and ultimately to the U.S. Supreme Court, but there is no certainty on how either court would rule. The government asked Phillips to rule on the stay by 3 p.m. Monday. Thursday’s government action raised the stakes in the “don’t ask, don’t tell” debate, which has languished since President Barack Obama called last year for

Congress to repeal the 1993 law that codified the policy and has become a thorny political issue just days before the November elections. While the House has passed repeal legislation, the Senate refused in September to consider a defense budget bill that included the repeal. In seeking the stay, the Obama administration said a precipitous change in the government’s longtime ban on gays in the military could disrupt combat operations and endanger gays and lesbians whose sexual orientation becomes known. It noted that the Pentagon is studying the effects of allowing gays and lesbians to serve openly and that Congress is considering repealing the law that established “don’t ask, don’t tell.” “A court-ordered injunction, operating precipitously and directly on all military and civilian Defense Department personnel throughout the world, would undermine the credibility and validity of the entire process that the political branches have undertaken for an orderly repeal of DADT, and may make the transition to repeal not only far more difficult, but also potentially disruptive to military readiness,” the Justice Department wrote. Obama repeated his call for Congress to repeal the law Thursday but defended his administration’s decision to appeal Phillips’ ruling.

“Congress explicitly passed a law that took away the power of the executive branch to end this policy unilaterally, so this is not a situation in which with a stroke of a pen I can simply end the policy,” Obama said at a questionand-answer session with young people on MTV. “It has to be done in a way that is orderly, because we are involved in a war right now.” “This policy will end, and it will end on my watch,” he said. “But I do have an obligation to make sure that I’m following some of the rules. I can’t simply ignore laws that are out there.” But Dan Woods, the lawyer who brought the lawsuit that led to Phillips’ injunction, said gays and lesbians had waited long enough for the political branches of government to act. “We are not surprised by the government’s action, as it repeats the broken promises and empty words from President Obama avowing to end ‘don’t ask, don’t tell’ while at the same directing his Justice Department to defend this unconstitutional policy,” Woods said. “Now that the government has filed a request for a stay, we will oppose it vigorously because brave, patriotic homosexuals are serving in our armed forces to fight for all of our constitutional rights while the government is denying them theirs.”

Volunteers can ‘see impact’

fundraise anywhere from $10, which is the registration fee, to the $12,000 raised by some teams.. “Any donation will make a difference,” Vallery said. “Five dollars covers the cost of a food bag, which is a meal we deliver to clients daily. Ten dollars will cover an HIV test.” Marc Canales, the volunteer coordinator, expects to use between 450 and 600 volunteers for the AIDSWalk. “I am looking forward to the interaction, just being out in the community and seeing the impact and the people who are impacted,” Canales said. Many of the current employees, like Canales, started as volunteers. Canales works in the

same position he started in as a volunteer for SAAF. T Loving, another employee who began as a volunteer, has lived in Tucson for 10 years and has participated in the Tucson AIDSWalk every year. This year T Loving, the youth programs coordinator, is working behind the scenes as a stage manager to ensure the event runs smoothly. “I think that every single moment that someone walks onto that campus, every single moment you see another face gather, is a really special and exciting moment for the event,” she said. “Every breath that is taken that day is a breath taken for the greater good of this community and that is very powerful to me.”

On the prowl for Cougars WSU

taking positive steps

No longer the Pac-10 basement dwellers By Mike Schmitz Arizona Daily Wildcat

Someone Here/Arizona Daily Wildcat

Arizona cornerback Robert Golden and the rest of the Wildcat secondary are looking to get back on the right track after a subpar peformance against Oregon State when the team travels to take on Washington State on Saturday. The Wildcats are 1-1 in Pacific 10 Conference games with a win over California and a loss to Oregon State.

No. 17 Arizona looks to rediscover its winning ways against WSU By Mike Schmitz Arizona Daily Wildcat There’s no question that Arizona lost some respect after its lackluster performance against Oregon State last Saturday. But with the humbling loss nearly a week removed, the only course of action is to rebound and take back that respect with a convincing victory against Pac-10 bottom-feeder Washington State Saturday night in Pullman, Wash. “It’s back to the proving grounds,” said co-defensive coordinator Greg Brown. “We’re back to square one, and we’ve got to fight to earn some respect, because we definitely lost it a week ago. Our guys know that, and our backs are to the wall.” After surrendering 393 passing yards and almost 500 yards of total offense against the Beavers, no unit has more to prove than the defense — particularly the secondary. Arizona’s defense was shredded

by OSU quarterback Ryan Katz, and linebacker Derek Earls said, “I don’t think everybody was really focused last game.” But the Wildcats’ secondary is back to prove that they aren’t as bad as they looked last Saturday, as they hit the road for the first time in 43 days against the 1-5 Cougars. “We still feel like we’ve got one of the top secondaries in the nation. We just got to go out there and challenge the receivers, and

that’s what we plan on doing,” said junior cornerback Robert Golden. Golden said the secondary plans to be “more aggressive” in its coverage and will “challenge receivers on the short routes.” The Wildcats have their hands full with an improved Cougars passing attack led by sophomore quarterback Jeff Tuel. Wazzu averages 252 passing yards per game, fifth in the conference, and has a pair of top-notch receivers in

true freshman Marquess Wilson and junior Jared Karstetter. The Cougars should expect to see a slightly modified Arizona secondary after James Rodgers and company burned the Wildcats deep time and time again. But Brown wasn’t ready to admit what those slight changes would be. “I could tell you, but then I’d have to kill you,” he said with a smile. Regardless of how Arizona lines up defensively, it needs a bounce-back game worse than ever. Quarterback Nick Foles and the offense should have no problem against a Washington State team that surrenders a Pac-10 worst 42.8 points per game. The Cougars rank dead last in the conference in scoring defense and rushing defense (254.7 yards per game) while landing eighth in pass defense (262.8 yards per game). FOOTBALL, page 8

It’s hard to praise a team that is winless in Pacific 10 Conference play and 1-5 overall. But considering their record in 2009 (1-11) and how closely they’ve played teams in 2010, it’s safe to say the Washington State Cougars are no longer the Pac-10’s doormat. “I think our kids understand that this is a different Washington State, a much better Washington State team than we’ve played over the past couple years, so we’re excited to go up there and compete,” said head coach Mike Stoops. The Cougars’ only win this season has come in a one-point victory over Montana State, and they’ve been outscored 135-67 by Pac-10 schools. But Washington State has proven it has an offensive attack that can help them hang around long enough to maybe, just maybe, pull off an upset. “We’re facing a team with an outstanding passing attack in the form of their quarterback who can throw it and run it, and they’ve got a couple of outstanding receivers,” said co-defensive coordinator Greg Brown. Sophomore quarterback Jeff Tuel, 19, is emerging as one of the Pac-10’s better arms, as he’s one of only three quarterbacks in the conference to throw for over 200 yards in every game this season. Tuel, who spent his freshman year at Salpointe Catholic High School in Tucson, is fifth in the conference in passing yards per game, with 246.3 passing yards per game to go along with nine touchdowns and only five interceptions. He threw for 311 yards and two touchdowns against UCLA two weeks back and put together COUGARS, page 10

Soccer maintains focus heading into ASU

Seniors trying to keep plethora of freshman in check for rivalry By Michael Fitzsimmons Arizona Daily Wildcat

Mike Christy/Arizona Daily Wildcat

Fifth-year senior Macke Mutz has a seasoned history with Arizona State, but head coach Lisa Oyen is counting on Mutz and the fellow upperclassmen to not let the freshmen get overwhelmed by the Sun Devil rivalry. Tonight’s game is set to start at 7 in Tempe.

In rivalry games for every sport, the teams’ records get thrown out the window, and all that matters is the game about to be played. Arizona soccer has had Friday night’s match against Arizona State at 7 in Tempe circled since its schedule was released, and its importance among players is undeniable. “Obviously it’s rivalry weekend, and it’s a huge game for all of us,” said senior Macke Mutz. “There’s a lot of young ones on the team who haven’t experienced this yet, so emotions are high, that’s for sure, but that’s good.” This will mark Mutz’s fifth time against ASU, and with 12 freshmen on the roster facing ASU (7-3-1, 1-1 Pacific 10 conference play) for the first time, it becomes a tricky game trying to temper the enthusiasm without losing the competitive edge. “Honestly, there’s not much to tell them. They know it’s a big game, and they know they have to show up,” Mutz said. “I think they’re as excited as they are nervous, and I think that’s good.” Head coach Lisa Oyen said she would be keeping an eye on the veterans in Friday’s match, trying to ensure that the tension of a rivalry game doesn’t stand in Arizona’s way. “We want to control the energy and emotion leading into this weekend. It’ll be interesting to see how

they all handle it,” Oyen said. “I think the returners have more history with all this, so I think it’s the upperclassman you have to be a little more concerned with, you know, making sure they’re not so amped up about it.” Both sides are coming off a loss in their Pac-10 opening weekends, but after ousting the Sun Devils last season in a 2-1 overtime thriller, ASU is likely hungry for revenge. The Wildcats know that the Pac10 schedule shows no remorse, and each game requires the energy that makes the matches seem like onegame seasons. “So far practice has been really intense, and we know from last weekend that we have to step up our game,” Mutz said.

Team training to stay fresh

With the grind of the Pac-10 season in top gear, little bumps and bruises have the danger of becoming more serious injuries. Aware of the challenges of a full season in the Pac-10, Oyen has made small adjustments to the team’s training habits in order to keep them at 100 percent. “We’re so deep into the season that we’re just trying to keep the players fresh,” Oyen said. “We want to go hard enough so that we’re getting the right energy out of training but not so hard that we’re going to kill ourselves before the weekend.”

Cross-country returns to the races By Kevin Nadakal ARIZONA DAILY WILDCAT

Gordon Bates/Arizona Daily Wildcat

Danielle Holloway and the No. 25 Wildcats will have their hands full when they welcome No. 5 UCLA and No. 10 Southern California to McKale Center. Arizona is currently on a four-game win streak.

Wildcats set for a SoCal challenge

V-ball to host No. 5, No. 10 teams in McKale By Alex Williams ARIZONA DAILY WILDCAT Physicality is the name of the game in Pacific 10 Conference volleyball, and that isn’t going to change this weekend when No. 25 Arizona hosts No. 5 UCLA and No. 10 Southern California. The action gets underway tonight, when the Wildcats (14-4, 3-2 Pacific 10 Conference) take on the Bruins (12-4, 2-3) at 7 p.m. in McKale Center. “They’re just going to be big and physical,” Arizona head coach Dave Rubio said. “UCLA is just a very well-skilled team. They have some kids that have good size and jump well and hit hard … they serve really well, and their volleyball IQ is good.” “Not only do you have to contend with some of the physical parts of how they are, but also their volleyball intelligence and their skills.” Rubio likes to focus on serving and receiving more than any other facets of the game. Those two areas set the tone for the entire match and are something that UCLA excels at. “(UCLA) is the best serve-receive team that I’ve seen,” he said. “I don’t think there’s another team that’s really even close to them. They serve really well.” That’s a good thing for Arizona, because the Wildcats are a physical team themselves. The only match this season that Arizona has been blown out in was against Stanford — a team that is physical but also a lot more strategic than the rest of the conference. Arizona also has another thing tilted in its favor this weekend — confidence. The Wildcats are currently riding a four-game winning streak, three of which have been in a come-from-behind fashion on the road. “It definitely boosts your confidence, and

we hadn’t had a sweep on the road since I’ve been here so that’s really big,” senior libero Danielle Holloway said. “It gets hard in the Pac-10 to get wins period, and to get them on the road is really big. So I think … having that mentality is definitely going to help us play better, believe in ourselves a little more.” The Wildcats have had trouble defending their home court this year. Both conference losses have come at McKale Center, although those matches could also be chalked up to the competition being the stiffest the Wildcats have faced this year. Holloway is hoping for that to change this weekend, and she thinks the home crowd can play a big role. “The rest and not traveling and stuff, some of the trips are pretty long with flights and driving and stuff,” she said. “Obviously the home crowd and being able to play in the gym you practice in all week are huge too.” The bad news for Arizona is that although it looks like outside hitter Whitney Dosty is going to be able to play with a stress fracture in her ankle, she will obviously be limited due to the pain. Although Dosty’s play will be hindered to some extent, the outside hitter position will still be in good hands. When Dosty went down last weekend, junior Courtney Karst stepped up to provide a career-high in kills with 22 against Oregon. Even though UCLA is a tough opponent — what top-10 team wouldn’t be? — USC plays a style of volleyball that is much more physically demanding. “USC is the bigger and more physical of the two schools this weekend,” Rubio said. After taking on UCLA tonight at 7, Arizona will host the Trojans at 7 p.m. Saturday in McKale Center.

The Arizona cross-country team is going into its biggest tournament of the year outside of nationals this weekend. The Wildcats had last week off and have been preparing for the NCAA PreNational Invitational at 10 a.m. Saturday in Terre Haute, Ind. This will be the second-largest tournament that the Wildcats will be in this year, but the team is not letting that affect them. “No, not really,” sophomore Jennifer Bergman said when asked if the team is altering its preparation. “We just increased our training in the last couple weeks because we haven’t had a tournament.” Junior Hannah Moen echoed Bergman’s thoughts. “We actually try and enter into with the same mentality,” Moen said. “There is no reason to get worked up about bigger meets. There isn’t really anything different for you to get nervous.” The women’s team has had a long

FOOTBALL continued from page 7

break with their last tournament being at the Griak Invitational on Sept. 25 and had some added practice time this week to help recover from the layoff. The coaching staff isn’t worried about the long layoff hurting the team in any way. “Chances are it is going to help us I think,” said head coach James Li. “I think that we trained pretty well and that we will do well.” On the men’s side Stephen Sambu suffered a lower leg injury in practice that will likely prevent him from running this week. “We had some setbacks, but we had some advances, too,” said Li. “We had some injury issues. Stephen Sambu is probably not going to run this week.” Expectations will damper for the men without Sambu running who has been their best runner so far this season. The rest of the team has been inconsistent, which Li said will make the weekend an interesting one. Without Sambu, Li can only wait and see if someone else steps up and makes a splash.

ARLINGTON, Texas — If not for Justin Smoak, Cliff Lee could be pitching for the New York Yankees in the American League Championship Series. Instead, he is pitching for the Texas Rangers. According to media reports on July 8, the Yankees were on the verge of acquiring the former Phillies lefthander in a trade with the Seattle Mariners. But the next day, the Rangers acquired Lee for four players; Smoak, a first baseman and the 11th overall pick in the 2008 draft, was the centerpiece of the deal. This postseason, Lee has already thrown two masterpieces, going 2-0 as the Rangers won the American League division series, besting Tampa Bay in five games. Lee will not pitch when the Yankees and Rangers begin the ALCS on Friday night at Rangers Ballpark in Arlington. He will start Game 3 Monday at Yankee Stadium. Lee was acquired along with pitcher Mark Lowe in exchange for Smoak and three minorleague players: righthanders Blake Beavan and Josh Lueke and infielder Matt Lawson. The Yankees had offered three prospects, but Seattle general manager Jack Zduriencik said he never had a deal and had continued

to negotiate with teams. Rangers general manager Jon Daniels admitted that he tried to offer options other than dealing Smoak. “I did feel like (the night before the trade), we might be in second place,” Daniels said Thursday during the team’s afternoon workout. “But we had an idea what put us in first place and knew what that package had to look like talent-wise.” Smoak batted .209 with eight home runs and 34 RBI for Texas before the trade. In 30 games for Seattle, he batted .239 with five home runs and 14 RBIs. The night before the trade, Lee was obviously following the rumor mill. “I saw what everyone else saw on ESPN, and it seemed like it was close to happening (with the Yankees),” Lee said. “Obviously, it didn’t and nothing is final until it’s final, and that is definitely one thing I learned from this game.” Obviously, the Yankees were interested in those early reports. “No question, our team was very excited when we were hearing perhaps (Lee) could come our way,” Yankees third baseman Alex Rodriguez said. “When he didn’t, my initial thought was: These guys are going to be a major threat in October.” Rodriguez knows firsthand. In the 2009 World Series with the Phillies, Lee went 2-0 with a

2.81 ERA against the Yankees. He struck out 13 and walked three in 16 innings. “It was fun; it was my first time in the postseason,” Lee said. “It’s where you want to be.” Lee will be a free agent after this season. Daniels hopes to re-sign him but says he does not want to negotiate with the lefthander until after the season. If Lee does not re-sign with the Rangers, they will receive two high draft picks as compensation. “We were comfortable if we got Mark Lowe, 21/2 months plus a potential postseason with Cliff Lee, and the two draft picks,” Daniels said. “We had to be comfortable with the deal to make the deal.” They are even more comfortable now that Lee has pitched the Rangers into the ALCS. Friday’s matchup. New York’s CC Sabathia will oppose C.J. Wilson in the opener. Wilson, a converted reliever, went 15-8 with a 3.35 ERA in the regular season and won his first postseason start in the division series against Tampa Bay. Sabathia was 21-7 with a 3.18 ERA and won his lone start in the ALDS sweep of the Minnesota Twins. When the lefthanded Wilson was asked about the influence of Lee, he quipped, “Before he was here, I was actually a righthanded second baseman.

WSU’s Tuel a revelation

a 245-yard, one-touchdown game as the Cougars gave No. 2 Oregon a scare last weekend. The biggest thing is that this season Tuel has some good options at which to throw. “Washington State has some great receivers,” said starting cornerback Robert Golden. True freshman Marquess Wilson is leading the Cougars in receiving yards with 515 and ranks third in the conference in receiving yards per game with 85.8. The 6-foot-3, rail thin (173 pounds) wideout has become one of Tuel’s favorite targets and quite the deep threat for the Cougars — he averages 17.8 yards per catch and has a 68-yard touchdown grab to his name. Junior receiver Jared Karstetter is Tuel’s other main option. The 6-foot-4, 208-pound wideout is a possession receiver who leads the conference in receptions with 33. Needless to say, Tuel and the Wazzu offense is much improved from the team that was the joke of the Pac-10 for so many seasons. The defense is still atrocious, allowing 42.8 points per game — over 12 more points than the team that ranks ninth in the Pac-10 in points allowed. The Cougars allow over 250 yards on the ground per game and should struggle to contain Arizona’s

high-octane offense. But although Wazzu certainly isn’t expected to come out victorious Saturday night, they should actually be taken seriously this time around. “Washington State, they’re not a pushover,” said senior running back Nic Grigsby. “This year, you can see they’ve been playing teams tough game in and game out. They’re not just going to let us go in there and walk over them.”

Not so pumped on Pullman

With a population of less than 30,000 and not much but barren land and cold weather, Pullman, Wash., isn’t exactly everyone’s favorite place to play. Here’s what some Arizona players had to say about their Saturday night destination: Nic Grigsby: “There’s just nothing out there. You go out there, and it’s going to be cold. And all you can do is go out there and is play football and hurry out there and get back home.” Derek Earls: “Middle of nowhere I think, as far as I know. Well, I shouldn’t say in the middle of nowhere because North Dakota (his last college) is in the middle of nowhere, too, so. It gets kind of cold up there, but I’m used to the cold.”
