Provost hopes to engage students BRITTNY MEJIA Arizona Daily Wildcat

Provost Andrew Comrie’s fourth town hall meeting again addressed the university’s strategic plan and aimed to gather public input about increasing student engagement.

Provost and Senior Vice President for Academic Affairs Comrie and J.C.

Mutchler, the chair of the Strategic Planning and Budget Advisory Committee, hosted Friday morning’s town hall after holding three others during the week. Each town hall has been open for campus members to provide feedback that could help change the current draft of the strategic plan.

“We’re trying to get everyone to

feel like this is something that’s our campus plan, not a plan that’s being dictated from somewhere up above,” Comrie said. “That’s a process that requires a lot of engagement like this to get people buying into it.”

The last town hall meeting, which was held Friday, allowed Comrie and Mutchler to explain the goals of the plan in different areas such as

teaching, research and outreach.

One specific goal Comrie touched on throughout the presentation is the need to create “100 percent engagement” with students.

Comrie described the engagement experience as students using their knowledge and participating in an internship, a research experience or an activity on campus to get out of the

classroom.

Providing distinct engagement experiences could help attract undergraduates to the UA, Comrie said. Furthermore, this could help create “the best students and the most engaged students.”

“We will therefore use that

Student target of robbery in Park Garage MAXWELL J. MANGOLD Arizona Daily Wildcat

BRIANA SANCHEZ/ARIZONA DAILY WILDCAT A PARADE OF ATTENDEES at Tucson SlutWalk 2012 started on Park Avenue before making its way down Sixth Street and back up University Boulevard and ending at the Women’s Plaza of Honor.

The event aimed to raise awareness about feminist activism and to reclaim the word “slut” in an effort to remove its negative connotations.

Saturday.

SlutWalk Tucson was formed in 2011 to challenge victim blaming, the idea that victims of sexual assault must have done something to deserve it. The event was sponsored by the UA Women’s

Resource Center and aimed to bring more awareness to women’s rights. The walk also served a celebration of everyone’s right to determine their own sexuality and who gets to share it with them. The center promotes gender equality

through education, leadership development and advocacy.

“I think it is really sad that today, especially young people, don’t see that there is a need for feminism,”

A male student was the target of a strong-armed robbery in the Park Avenue Parking Garage at 4:20 p.m. on Nov. 15.

The student was walking through the garage when he exchanged words with two men in a white van, said Joe Bermudez, a crime prevention officer for the University of Arizona Police Department.

After walking by the vehicle and up the northeast stairway of the garage, the student was confronted by the man who had been sitting in the van’s passenger seat. He was described as Caucasian and in his 20s with short, blond hair wearing a white shirt and shorts. The man threated the student, demanding he surrender his belongings, which the student did.

Bermudez did not disclose

Barber edges McSally for win in CD2 STEPHANIE CASANOVA Arizona Daily Wildcat

Rep. Ron Barber flew back to Tucson from Washington D.C. on Saturday morning and held a press conference in his campaign office to announce that he will be serving a full term in Congress as the representative of Congressional District 2.

His challenger, Martha McSally, called Barber on Saturday afternoon to congratulate him on his victory, despite there still being provisional ballots to be counted, 26,000 of them from Pima County as of Friday afternoon. The election was too close to call the night the polls closed.

“I was very excited and relieved because it was a toss-up there for a little bit,” said Erik Lundstrom, president of the Young

Democrats of Arizona and a political science senior.

Barber and McSally ran a close race while an unprecedented number of provisional ballots have been counted since Election Day. Barber led by 1,402 votes on Friday night.

Zoey Kotzambasis, vice president of the UA College Republicans and a political science sophomore, said she was disappointed but not surprised that McSally conceded the race to Barber.

“Historically, Pima County is much more liberal than the rest of the state and so it made sense that those were likely going to be Democratic votes,” Kotzambasis said.

Barber issued a press release on Saturday thanking those who helped in his campaign and emphasizing the importance of fixing the economy.

“We must rebuild our middle class and strengthen our economy,” Barber said in the statement.

A Facebook post from McSally on her campaign page said that while the results were not what her team hoped for, she was proud of the campaign they ran and that she will continue to serve her country.

“While this particular battle is over, I still have a fire in my belly to make a difference and serve our community and country. I look forward to seeing where that call to duty takes me next,” she wrote.

Lundstrom said he expects Barber to continue the tradition of moderation he’s already established in Congress.

Kotzambasis said based on the short term he’s served as former Rep. Gabrielle Giffords’ replacement, she doesn’t expect much

productivity.

Both Lundstrom and Kotzambasis said they expect Barber, as a border district representative, to be a major voice for immigration reform. A faster citizenship process is necessary in order to fix immigration problems in Arizona, Kotzambasis said.

“I think that he will definitely push for that and be a leader in Congress over immigration reform,” Lundstrom said.

Barber won with 50.15 percent of the vote, while McSally held 49.66 percent.

Kotzambasis said she wasn’t expecting such a close race.

“I was actually very pleasantly surprised for how close this election was,” Kotzambasis said. “No matter what, both candidates … ran a good race.”

Study: Ultrasound better detects high risk of heart diseases from smoke in firefighters BRITTNY MEJIA Arizona Daily Wildcat

The firefighter’s clinic in Tucson will install an ultrasound machine to screen for heart problems as a result of a UA study’s findings.

Jeff Burgess, a UA professor of public health and director of the Community, Environment and Policy Division in the College of Public Health, has worked on a variety of studies pertaining to firefighters and said it is important to try to identify firefighters at risk for heart attacks because half of firefighter deaths in the line of duty are due to heart attacks.

“We can detect some heart disease, but there’s still a long ways that we need to go to be able to detect all the firefighters at high risk,” Burgess said.

“That’s one thing. The second thing is to

approach to graduate tomorrow’s leaders,” he said. “That’s what we want to produce, is tomorrow’s leaders. It sounds lofty, but it’s true.”

Mutchler stressed the need to promote the university’s strengths to address challenges, diversify the support for research and attract doctoral students. He also said there is a need for community outreach.

“We want to share our knowledge, our research and our creativity to enhance the quality of life for the people of Arizona and beyond here,” Mutchler said.

In order to increase the impact on the community, Mutchler said the university will need to form multiple engagements, partnering with communities and industry.

Following their presentation, Comrie and Mutchler opened the floor for questions and comments from the audience. Questions focused on topics such as an online strategy for the university and how to create partnerships in order to

really understand how we can prevent them from developing the extended heart disease that’s going to put them at risk for heart attacks later on.”

Dr. Wayne Peate, an associate professor at the College of Public Health, proposed that the Greater Tucson Fire Foundation look at funding this study where at-risk firefighters receive an ultrasound to look for.

“The study that Dr. Peate did through the UA College of Public Health demonstrated the efficacy of the ultrasound to the point where now we want to do it with the firefighters,” said Mike McKendrick, chairman of the Greater Tucson Fire Foundation.

“The added hope is that this will become the national standard.”

The study, which ended in 2011, found that the ultrasound machine is more effective than the heart CT scan

increase student engagement.

Both staff members emphasized that the current plan is only a draft and that they are interested in gathering feedback to improve it.

“The whole idea is this is a draft and this is supposed to be a working document that will change in response to what people tell us,” Comrie said. “This will not be the final thing.”

Comrie said the draft was derived from comments made at the forums and from stakeholders.

Once feedback is received, the administration can start to refine the plan and turn the ideas into actual documents.

The work will not end there, as staff will go back to the colleges in the spring and make sure the department plans align with the overall university plan, Comrie added.

“I think people are prepared to give it a chance,” Comrie said. “They see that we’re trying to get input and listen … and get their brains around how this isn’t going to be easy, but it’s going to be something we can all work on together, and move the university forward as a giant team.”

in detecting blockages in the arteries, and that with the ultrasound there is no radiation, Peate said.

A CT scan only picks up blockages that have calcium in them, Peate said.

This means one out of four blockages is missed. Furthermore, with the heart CT scan, the radiation is 30 times that of a chest X-ray, he added.

“The study showed the ultrasound was so effective that now we want to use it to detect early signs of heart disease before somebody has a heart attack or a stroke,” Peate said.

As a result of the study, the Greater Tucson Fire Foundation decided to provide funding for an ultrasound machine in the firefighter’s clinic in Tucson. The machine will be placed in the clinic by December, in hopes that it will benefit firefighters.

said Marisa Skelpsa-Munoz, head of activism for Feminists Organized to Resist, Create, and Empower.

“If we don’t recognize that there are still many issues we face in our society, then nothing happens to change that,” Skelpsa-Munoz said.

“I think being an activist and putting in some effort to change the world is very important to the human experience.”

The walk also served as an open forum for attendees to discuss feminism, a term that some think has taken on negative connotations.

“Feminism is such a dirty word these days,” said Olukemi Oso, student director of F.O.R.C.E. “Often these issues are overlooked. It’s nice to have a safe place to talk freely about these topics.”

The event’s name stems from feminists’ reclaiming of the word in an effort to remove its negativity. “[Slut] is such a pervasive word,” Oso said. “I don’t use ‘bitch’ in a negative way to put down women. I do think there is something to use these words in a positive way to take away the negative power from when people use them.”

In addition to leaders of various campus activists groups, students turned out to show their support for the cause as well.

“I’m here to stand up and say it’s not OK,” linguistics and anthropology sophomore Rachel Billeci said. “The staggering statistics of people raped and abused on a daily rate is not OK.” Participants walked down Park Avenue, up Sixth Street and over to Fourth Avenue and back up University Boulevard to end at the Women’s Plaza of Honor.

“A lot of people have an issue with us using the word ‘slut,’” Skelpsa-Munoz said. “We need to face it head on.”

we have just one save, it’s worthwhile,” McKendrick said. “The save could be really saving a firefighter’s life, or even letting a firefighter know that he or she has potential for that cardiac disease so they can go to their primary care physician and be treated.”

The study showed there was a cheaper, more accurate and less dangerous way of detecting abnormalities than with other types of technology, Peate said. Early intervention can help firefighters to stay healthy in their careers, he added.

“If we can get it ahead of time, let the firefighter know there’s a problem, then we can treat it,” McKendrick said.

“There’s really not a lot more traumatic than a firefighter having a heart attack at work. You have to save the person there to do the saving and that’s very traumatic.”

Editorial Pass/Fail The Daily Wildcat puts the issues to the test.

Do they make the grade?

District 2 race finally ends, Barber wins

Democrat Ron Barber beat out Republican Martha McSally for a full term representing Arizona’s 2nd Congressional District. It sure took long enough to count.

The race was especially close, with Barber and McSally alternately leading — sometimes with a difference of just a few dozen votes — since election night. At one point, officials estimated that the count would go on for several more days.

But by late Friday, Barber had a 1,402vote margin with more than 285,000 votes cast. An AP analysis found Barber’s lead could not be overcome.

With the redrawing of boundaries, CD2 was a definite swing district and winnable by either party.

McSally, an Air Force veteran, was making her first run for political office against a well-known candidate with strong ties to former Rep. Gabrielle Giffords. It was a tight race, and her impressively close finish wins McSally a pass.

P

Romney concedes defeat graciously, says no one ever

There’s nothing graceful about former presidential candidate and Republican Mitt Romney.

The former Massachusetts governor first came under fire on Wednesday for telling donors that President Barack Obama won the election because he gave “gifts” to minorities, women and young voters. Audio of the comments leaked late last week, and the full context doesn’t help Romney out.

In one excerpt, Romney said, “It’s a proven political strategy, which is give a bunch of money to a group and, guess what, they’ll vote for you. What I would do if I were a Democrat running four years from now — I’d say dental care ought to be included in Obamacare.”

It’s hard to believe Romney’s comments could be even worse than what was initially reported, but somehow they are. We’re not sure what huge tax cuts for corporations qualify as (gifts, maybe, to wealthy voters?), but there’s an undeniable lack of awareness in the audio clips.

Romney was frequently awkward, but this is just bad. For being unable to lose graciously, Romney gets a fail.

F

Snack enthusiasts panic as Twinkie-maker closes

The cost of Twinkies is rising as opportunists began selling the snack cakes on eBay and Craigslist for — in some cases — thousands of dollars this weekend.

Twinkie-maker Hostess Brands recently announced plans to close and sell its assets at an auction.

Shortly afterward, grocery stores reported jumps in Hostess product sales as customers were struck with nostalgia.

Some of the brands may live on through new buyers, company officials say, so that people can still get their fix of Twinkies, Ho Hos or Ding Dongs.

But the burst of affection for Hostess and its products gets an incomplete, as the possibility of the brands living on is little comfort to people who will be out of work when the company shuts its doors.

Yes, it’s kind of funny that people are worried about the closing of a snack cake company. But the people who are losing their jobs have bigger concerns.

Your views In response to “ABOR meeting could decide fate of ASA student fee” (by Brittny Mejia, Nov. 15): On November 5, “The Graduate and Professional Student Council (GPSC), representative of all graduate and professional students at the University of Arizona, hereby supports the Arizona Students’ Association (ASA) and its mission to improve higher education for the students of Arizona.

The ASA is needed because it stands and fights for students’ rights in higher education throughout the state of Arizona. ASA works to better higher education by working on issues that Arizona students bring forth.

In addition, ASA has been actively involved in encouraging student political involvement by registering thousands of students and organizing ‘get out the vote’ campaigns for students.

We further support the continuation of the ASA $2 fee because it was overwhelmingly approved by a student referendum four years ago and the investment has been valuable to the University of Arizona student population. ASA has used this investment to promote higher education, bring together Arizona students to promote leadership and unity, and advocate to elected officials on issues pertaining to education.

ASA is an indispensable and important advocate for students’ needs, and the GPSC fully supports the organization as a united voice for all university students across the state of Arizona.”

— Graduate and Professional Student Council (GPSC) — Zachary Brooks, GPSC president

“It’s definitely tarnished journalism for me,” Myers said. “I was unsure about whether I was suitable for journalism prior to all this. This hasn’t really helped my view on the field, so I’m not 100 percent sure if I’ll continue that career path or if I’ll go into something else.”

The incident also raises questions about free expression on college campuses.

“The campus is vigilant about providing free speech,” Stanley said in in the Oswegonian. “There just is no learning without the building block of free speech.”

Admittedly, Myers should have been more specific in identifying himself, but equating his email with harassment, intimidation or threats was a huge overreaction.

In a learning environment, students have to be given the opportunity to learn without fear. As Stanley said, free speech is critical to learning.

What is commendable about the incident was the backlash that the university received for Myers’ suspension. Institutions of higher education are being held accountable for their actions, especially when those actions infringe on the rights of students. Free speech matters, and people are reminding university administrators of that every day.

What happened to Myers should, rightfully, tarnish SUNY Oswego’s administration. But it shouldn’t tarnish journalism.

In response to “States filing secession petitions need to grow up” (by Dan Desrochers, Nov. 15): Haha, this is great. Also, if you look at the states who want to secede, their economies aren’t strong enough. They also have no water sources. It’s just dumb.

— Andrea I think it’s time to come out of your toddler years and address these issues, which you have several facts about, like an adult.

Nobody appreciates your childish attitude toward such a serious issue. This is more than a secession. This is a nationwide protest to how the government is being run and things obviously need to change. I don’t think anyone will really secede … I just think we want to be heard.

— Mick Kevlar Print this out, hold on to it and see if you feel the same way 5 years from now. I hope I’m wrong about the direction of the country and there is nothing to worry about. The reason other countries can get by with socialized medicine is that they have the U.S. system to fall back on. Cleveland is the MRI capital of Canada.

— Don H. In response to “Life on his terms: UA transgender student offers new perspective” (by Greg Gonzales, Nov. 16): Many of us start college not knowing who we are. Congratulations Michael for having the courage to look within and respect what you found. May you continue to have comfort among your peers and compassion for others still finding their way. Thank you Greg for another well-written story reminding us to keep open our hearts and minds.

30 YEARS STRONG

Airstrike in Gaza kills 12

El Tour de Tucson bicycle race and fundraiser celebrates three decades while raising money for the American Diabetes Association

MCCLATCHY TRIBUNE

GAZA CITY, Gaza Strip — An Israeli airstrike on Sunday killed 10 members of one family, mostly women and children, in the deadliest single attack since the current fighting in the Gaza Strip began last week.

“This is a massacre,” shouted Nasser Dalu, a cousin and neighbor, as he watched in anguish as his relatives were pulled from debris.

“What did these children do?”

Two male next-door neighbors were also killed, bringing the total death count to 12, with more than 20 people wounded.

The 2:30 p.m. attack took place in the Naser district, a crowded residential neighborhood of Gaza City.

Israel Defense Forces, which on Wednesday launched an air assault to stop rockets from being fired by Gaza militants into southern Israel, did not immediately comment on the strike.

There was little chance of finding survivors in the pile of cement and glass. The force of the blast blew out windows blocks away.

For hours after the strike, rescue workers and neighbors nonetheless clung to hope of finding someone alive. Volunteers in orange vests searched the wreckage while a bulldozer pulled apart collapsed walls of cement.

Three women and one man were the first to be found at the house, which neighbors said was owned by Jamal Dalu, who was not home at the time of the attack. The dead included his wife Tahani, 45; a son, Mohamed; a sister, Suhaila, 65; and Mohamed’s wife, Samah.

Then they found the children.

With each discovery, men screamed while others climbed down to retrieve each body. Then, as onlookers chanted “God is great,” a rescue worker would race through the parting sea of people with a bloodied, dust-covered child, arms and legs flapping as he ran toward waiting ambulances.

First the older son, then a baby girl, another girl and a boy, all children of Mohamed Dula.

Until Sunday, Israel had been praising its operation’s surgical airstrikes, which officials said had successfully limited civilian casualties.

HAILEY EISENBACH/ARIZONA DAILY WILDCAT MORE THAN 9,000 CYCLISTS from across the nation turned out for the 30th annual El Tour de Tucson bicycle race on Saturday. The ride, an 111-mile circuit, started and ended on Sixth Street, across from the Children’s Museum Tucson. The event was a fundraiser for the American Diabetes Association.

Californians hopeful for state economy MCCLATCHY TRIBUNE

SACRAMENTO, Calif. — Californians are growing more optimistic about the direction of the state and its finances even as they continue to struggle with a sour economy, a new USC Dornsife/Los Angeles Times poll shows.

The recent passage of Gov. Jerry Brown’s tax increases on the ballot, averting a fresh round of bruising cuts to public education, appears to account for some of the shift in attitude.

Fifty-four percent of registered state voters said California is moving in the right direction on its budget, and Brown’s approval rating has ticked up a few points to 49 percent — the highest since his 2010 election.

The number of respondents saying the state is on the right track has more than doubled since they were asked in August 2011. Still, amid persistent double-digit unemployment and other underlying economic problems, that remains the view of a minority, only 38 percent.

Similarly, the number who say the state economy is finally beginning to improve has almost doubled since July 2011, but those voters are also in the minority, just 43 percent.

Job losses, salary cuts and other financial troubles continue to affect Californians and their families at roughly the same levels as a year ago, the poll found.

“We started in an unbelievable hole. It’s been a tough road back to where we are now,” said Stan Greenberg, of the Democratic polling firm Greenberg Quinlan Rosner Research. The company conducted the poll with American Viewpoint, a Republican business.

The USC Dornsife College of Letters, Arts and Sciences/Los Angeles Times poll canvassed 1,520 registered voters by telephone from Nov. 7-12.

The margin of error is 2.9 percentage points.

The polling ended two days before the Legislature’s top financial adviser delivered upbeat news on the state budget, saying California could see surpluses in a few years even though it still has long-term fiscal problems to resolve.

The increase in voter optimism comes after a wave of Democratic victories on Election Day. In addition to President Barack Obama’s re-election and the governor’s win on tax hikes, Democrats are poised for supermajorities in both houses of the California Legislature. A two-thirds vote in each chamber is needed to raise taxes.

Noam Meppen, 37, a San Diego sales manager, praised Brown for taking a “pragmatic and balanced approach” to the budget.

A Democrat, he voted for the taxes because “it’s important to have a strong education system.”

If the tax increases had been rejected, nearly $6 billion would have been cut from the budget, mostly from public schools.

Among voters who cast ballots in favor of Proposition 30, the desire to protect schools from more spending cuts was the primary motivation, the poll showed.

Unemployment in California has remained among the highest in the country, even though it dropped to 10.1 percent last month. Thirty-four percent of poll respondents said the loss of a job had affected them or their families in the past year.

Forty percent said they or someone in their family had been hit with salary cuts or a reduction in work hours.

Mike Cashara, 52, of Calaveras County goes door-to-door helping mortgage companies keep tabs on foreclosed houses.

“I’ve seen a lot of people struggling,” said Cashara, a Republican. “I’ve had friends who lost houses.”

Police Beat MAXWELL J. MANGOLD Arizona Daily Wildcat

Grand theft auto

Three men attempted to carjack a vehicle stopped at a red light on Nov. 10, the driver reported.

She told University of Arizona Police Department officers that she was stopped at Speedway Boulevard and Campbell Avenue when three men approached her vehicle.

A man described as tall and wearing a blue and red buttondown stood in front of her car while the other two went to either side of it. All of them were described as clean-cut and in their 20s, none of them appearing to be intoxicated. After several seconds, the man in front shouted, “Now!” and the other two tried to open the side and back doors.

The woman sped off, heading toward McKale Center in hopes of finding the police. There, she parked just west of the ticket center, where she told an officer about the attempted carjacking. The officer responded, “I’ll put it out.”

The woman returned to campus later that day, and asked UAPD for an update on the incident. The woman said she thought it was weird the officer hadn’t asked for her “name or anything.” While the woman was unable to identify the agency of the earlier cop, she was able to provide a description of his appearance.

The woman was then given information to contact TPD and advised to make a formal report.

Drunk and devouring Dibs

A Highland Market employee accused a UA student of drunkenly eating food she hadn’t paid for at 1:45 a.m. on Nov. 11.

The manager of the market told a UAPD officer that he’d found an empty cup of “Dibs” that he believed she’d already consumed.

As the manager went to review security footage, the officer went to the back of the market and approached a woman talking on her cellphone while eating a container of Dibs. The woman said she hadn’t paid for the package, but that it was her first.

The officer noticed the woman’s watery, red eyes and slurred speech before escorting her to the register to pay for the item.

As the woman used the counter for balance, the manager told her about the other container of Dibs he’d located and she paid for both.

The officer then questioned the woman outside, where she told the officer she’d come from a party where she’d had three shots of vodka. She agreed to a portable breath test, but after three attempts was unable to provide a sufficient sample.

During this time, the manager approached the two and said he’d found a third package of Dibs and security footage showing the woman had eaten them, to which she replied that she “loves these things.”

The woman was then asked to pay for the third package, but she said she didn’t have the money. She was cited and released on charges of a minor in possession, and she told the officer she was willing to go to her dorm and return to pay for the items.

LBSU no pushover for UA Arizona welcomes 49ers to McKale Center at 7 p.m. on Monday CAMERON MOON Arizona Daily Wildcat

Long Beach State enters a game with Arizona at 7 p.m.

Monday, having already taken on USC and North Carolina.

The 49ers also have prime time match-ups with UCLA, Syracuse and Ohio State, proving they aren’t scared to tango with the big boys of college basketball.

LBSU’s scheduling tactics are something that Arizona head coach Sean Miller has said he would like to have more of, but the Wildcats’ schedule seems to feature lesser teams until they play Florida in December.

Miller compared the 49ers to both Charleston Southern and UTEP, the UA’s first two opponents.

“They have the makings of a team that has an opportunity to win their conference and have a great season,” Miller said Saturday. “They’re very big at all positions, like UTEP. Their wings, they have a really strong point guard, and their big guys are traditional, strong, low-post players.

“The difference is they’re much more transition based, like Charleston Southern was. They try to exploit you in transition in a lot of different ways, whether they’re running the court, throwing it inside or shooting threes.”

The Wildcats were burned by open 3s against Charleston Southern, allowing the Buccaneers to score 10-of-28.

Miller said after the game that

the Wildcats were readier for a more traditional team, a team like they will face in Long Beach State.

“Out of the three teams that we’ve played, from a talent perspective, watching them on film, they could be our toughest challenge to date,” Miller said.

Defensively, Arizona will be tasked with guarding LBSU point guard Mike Caffey, who is “aggressive and quick with the ball,” according to Miller.

Against USC and North Carolina, Caffey scored 31 total points and dished out seven assists.

Arizona has not had one player foul out this season, but has had multiple players get four personal fouls in a game.

The versatility Arizona brings to the table bodes well for the Wildcats, who now have the depth necessary to accommodate such a load.

Freshmen forwards Brandon Ashley and Grant Jerrett have both performed well in the first two games, with Ashley scoring in double digits against Charleston Southern and almost reaching the plateau against UTEP, scoring nine points in 20 minutes.

“We have a close-knit group that wants to have a great season,” Miller said. “That’s what really is going to allow us to continue to grow.”

Miller and the Wildcats are not overlooking the 49ers, who are a “tough-minded bunch,” as Miller says.

“They play one of the most

People should know Ka’Deem Carey’s name by now.

Arizona’s starting running back is rewriting the UA record book, and he’s still not getting as much national attention as he deserves.

After running for a Pac-12 record 366 yards and five touchdowns against Colorado last week, Carey was named the National Player of the Week by the College Football Performance Awards. He also earned Honorable Mention Running Back of the Week from the CFPA for his 204yard performance in Saturday’s 34-24 win against Utah.

“People know my name,” Carey said on Tuesday after practice. “Not like they haven’t, but they’re starting to say it.”

COURTESY OF ARIZONA ATHLETICS ARIZONA DIVER RAFAEL QUINTERO won the platform championship at the Arizona Diving Invite on Sunday by more than 40 points, scoring a 388.2.

Arizona successful in annual diving invite EVAN ROSENFELD Arizona Daily Wildcat

The nation’s top divers from 13 different schools met for three days of competition this weekend at Hillenbrand Aquatics Center during the annual Arizona Diving Invite.

Arizona freshman diver Rafael Quintero won the platform championship by more than 40 points on Sunday, scoring a 388.20.

Sophomore Carter Craft placed sixth overall on the platform with a respectable 280.30.

“I did a lot better on the 3m and then [today] on the tower,” Quintero said. “I kept improving each day and that was pretty great. Omar [Ojeda, head diving coach] was pleased with our performance.”

Quintero and sophomore Josh Bidak led the Wildcats on Saturday, and both reached the finals.

Quintero continued his success and placed third overall with a score of 382.45 while Bidak placed eighth with a 343.80. Craft placed second in the consolation final on Saturday, scoring 349.50.

“I am really happy with how they

did this weekend,” Ojeda said. “We are in the middle of the season and everyone keeps showing improvement. I think we had a good performance this weekend.”

In the first day of competition, on Friday, the Wildcats saw three of their divers reach final rounds as Craft, Bidak and Quintero represented Arizona in the finals on the 1m diving board. Senior Ashley Herrera led the women on the 3m board, placing first in the consolation finals with a score of 273.75.

“

I missed three dives. I feel like I could have done better and if I only missed one, I would have probably gotten third.

“

­— diver Rafael Quintero

Craft led the men, placing third in the finals with a 319.05. Quintero wasn’t far behind, compiling a 313.6, enough to earn himself fifth place.

“I didn’t like my performance that much [in the 1m],” Quintero

said. “I missed three dives. I feel like I could have done better and if I only missed one, I would have probably gotten third.”

Bidak performed well enough on the first day to secure himself a place in the finals. He subsequently placed 8th with a score of 303.55.

“Right now we are working to increase the difficulty degree,” Ojeda said. “All of the corrections are right there — if we can add the extra flip here, extra twist there — it can be a difference of up to 30 points.”

Arizona edges Boise State in Competition

Meanwhile, on Saturday, the women participated in a duel against Boise State, winning 13 of the 14 events including both relays at Hillenbrand Aquatics Center.

Seniors Lauren Smart and Chelsey Salli and junior Margo Geer represented the Lady Wildcats, placing first in two events each, while freshman Bonnie Brandon continued to dominate, winning three events.

It wasn’t quite a changing of the guard, but after a wild weekend with both traditional Pac-12 powers crashing down, the chase for conference supremacy is now one giant mess.

A couple teams made statement wins — Oregon State crushed Cal 62-14 to get back on track, Arizona conquered its road fears with a 3424 win at Utah and Washington took care of the Pac-12 bottom feeder in Colorado. Those games were nothing, though, compared to what happened up in Eugene, Ore., and down south in the Rose Bowl.

The Cardinal goes Duck hunting

With a 17-14 overtime takedown of Oregon in Eugene, Stanford is now 23-3 in the Pac-12 since the start of the 2010 season, with two of those losses to the Ducks, and coach David Shaw has the Cardinal rolling.

Any time a team wins in overtime, it’s not exactly convincing, but Stanford entered a hostile Autzen Stadium and stayed punch for punch with an Oregon team that was on a straight path to the national title game. The Cardinal lost the turnover battle three to one and redshirt freshman quarterback Keith Hogan made his first career road start.

Stanford outgained Oregon 411 to 405 and after an amazing, if lucky, 10-yard catch by tight end Zach Ertz in the back of the end zone tied the game and Oregon’s Alejandro Maldonado banged his overtime field goal against the left upright,

the game was squarely in Stanford’s hands.

Sophomore kicker Jordan Williamson answered the call with a 37-yarder straight down the middle and the Ducks’ stranglehold on the Pac-12 was instantly broken. Now, if Stanford can hang on and beat UCLA — or have Oregon State win the Civil War against Oregon — the Cardinal will represent the Pac-12 North and a new player will have officially emerged.

Bruins win L.A. Monopoly

When UCLA hired Rick Neuheisel in 2007, the Bruins took out an ad in the Los Angeles Times saying that the Los Angeles football monopoly was officially over. Well, they were wrong, and Neuheisel was fired last season.

Now Jim Mora Jr. is in control, and the new regime beat the Trojans 38-28 for the first time since 2006, the second win since the turn of the century. Not only did the victory clinch the Pac-12 South for the Bruins, but now Mora and company can finally bulldoze the hotels USC had on Park Place and Boardwalk.

UCLA has been a strange team this year — it beat a talented Nebraska team early on, humiliated a thenranked Arizona team and flew out to a 24-0 lead against the Trojans on Saturday.

At the same time, though, UCLA lost 43-17 on the road to Cal, who has been just awful this season, and let an even worse Washington State team make a comeback and turn a should-be blowout into a one-score game.

Foles makes his first career start MCCLATCHY TRIBUNE

Nick Foles focused on the television screen during April’s NFL draft before the power went out in his Austin, Texas, home in the middle of the third round.

Darkness enshrouded Foles. He was still undrafted.

Ten minutes later, Foles saw a 215 area code flash on his cellphone.

He knew enough about the Eagles’ interest to recognize the origin of the call. That’s how Foles learned he would become Philadelphia’s potential quarterback of the future.

The Eagles were determined to pick a quarterback from a draft class that might prove to be one of the ripest in years. Their evaluations included meeting with Robert Griffin III, the Washington Redskins selection who started against the Eagles on Sunday.

Foles replaced Michael Vick and became the sixth quarterback from the 2012 class to start a regular-season game in a 31-6 Eagles loss. It’s the culmination of a rigorous evaluation process that ultimately landed Foles in Philadelphia.

“We liked him, so as we ranked him, we made him one of the guys that if we had an opportunity, we’d draft,” coach Andy Reid said. “He fell to where we drafted, and it worked out like it did.”

But the draft is never that simple. The six quarterbacks selected before Foles (the No. 88 overall pick) were Andrew Luck (No. 1, Colts), Griffin (No. 2), Ryan Tannehill (No. 8, Dolphins), Brandon Weeden (No. 22, Browns), Brock Osweiler (No. 57, Broncos), and Russell Wilson (No. 75, Seahawks). The Eagles expressed interest in Griffin, but did not have

Pac-12

Without that Cal loss, UCLA would’ve been sitting pretty for a BCS bowl, but things do eventually work out. No matter the outcome with Stanford, the Bruins will be headed to the Pac-12 title game as the South Division champs and have a straight shot to play in their own backyard for the Rose Bowl game.

enough ammunition to trade up for him. They worked out Tannehill but had other needs in the first round.

The Eagles focused on Foles and Wilson.

The draft room was unanimous in liking Foles, although Reid preferred Wilson, according to team sources.

mcclatchy tribune FORMER ARIZONA QUARTERBCK NICK FOLES made his first career NFL start on Saturday for the Eagles against the Redskins.

3. No. 16 Oregon State (8-2, 6-2) LW: 16 Week 12: (W 62-14 against Cal) This Week: against Oregon

4. No. 15 UCLA (9-2, 6-2) LW: 17 Week 12: (W 38-28 against USC) This Week: against Stanford

Mornhinweg favored size and wanted Foles, team sources said.

The comparison became moot when Wilson was taken 13 picks before Foles, and the Eagles were pleased to draft Foles as the highest quarterback selected besides Donovan McNabb and Kevin Kolb in the Reid era.

larry hogan/arizona Daily Wildcat RUNNING BACK KA’DEEM CAREY ran for a Pac-12 record 366 yards and six touchdowns against Colorado and another 204 yards on Saturday against Utah.

Carey

from page 7

- Montee Ball, Wisconsin - Kenjon Barner, Oregon - Le’Veon Bell, Michigan State - Giovani Bernard, North Carolina - David Fluellen, Toledo - Johnathan Franklin, UCLA - Stefphon Jefferson, Nevada - Venric Mark, Northwestern - Joseph Randle, Oklahoma State - Stepfan Taylor, Stanford Carey is noticeably absent, and there’s really no excuse.

With his ridiculous 570 rushing yards in the last two weeks, Carey catapulted past Jefferson as the nation’s rushing leader.

His 19 touchdowns are tied for third among running backs with Barner, one behind Jefferson and seven behind Lousiana Tech’s Kenneth Dixon, who isn’t a finalist either.

Barner and Franklin are often cited as the top running backs in the Pac-12, but Carey also has nine more touchdowns than Franklin, and Barner had five games of less than 100 yards — Carey had three.

Franklin has been held scoreless in six games, Barner in four and Carey in one.

Sure, Oregon and UCLA are having better seasons than Arizona.

But the Wildcats also have the same record as Michigan State at 5-6.

MSU’s Bell has 65 more carries than Carey, but 203 fewer yards and nine fewer touchdowns.

UNC’s Bernard gets an impressive 6.8 yards per carry, but on a much smaller sample size, at 157 carries to Carey’s 250.

Head-to-head, Carey has taken on Barner, Fluellen, Franklin, Randle and Taylor, and outperformed all except Franklin.

In Arizona’s 24-17 win against Toledo in week one, Carey had 147 yards and a touchdown to Fluellen’s 72 and a score.

In a week two upset against OSU, Carey had 126 yards and three touchdowns, Randle had 123 yards and no scores.

T I P S

F O R

In a 49-0 blowout loss to Oregon on Sept. 22, Barner and Carey came out about even, as Barner gained 86 yards to Carey’s 79.

In a tightly contested 54-48 loss to Stanford on Oct. 6, Taylor outgained Carey with 142 yards to 132, but the Arizona back had three touchdowns and Taylor two.

That’s not to say Carey should win the award by any means, I’d probably give it to Ball or Barner, but it doesn’t make much sense that Carey is not even a semifinalist.

The process for selecting the candidates is as follows, according to Phil Steele: In October and at the beginning of the season, each Division I-A university is given the opportunity to nominate a candidate.

Throughout the season, statistical updates are compiled and released to the media and National Selection Committee, which includes sportswriters, television commentators, analysts, radio sports personalities and former AllAmericans and NFL All-Pro football players.

In mid-November, the PricewaterhouseCoopers SMU Athletic Forum Board of Directors reviews the achievements of all candidates and votes to select 10 semifinalists for the award.

By virtue of its releasing the semifinalists on Nov. 9, a fair assumption would be that the committee made its selection in the days prior.

Carey ran for 366 yards and six touchdowns on Nov. 10, and then 204 more on Nov. 17.

Even before Carey exploded in the last two weeks, he still had 1,015 rushing yards and 13 touchdowns, and was on pace for 1,353 yards and 17 touchdowns excluding a potential bowl game.

Either way, the committee should have waited until closer to the end of the season to make a decision.

Arizona officially adds two recruits to 2013 class, might add another ZACK ROSENBLATT Arizona Daily Wildcat

Sean Miller, master recruiter.

After two straight top 10 recruiting classes, including this year’s No. 3 class, Arizona’s head coach has established himself as one of the nation’s best in getting top talent to come to the UA. Thursday was national signing day, and Miller officially added some more top talent to the Wildcats for 2013 in five-star small forward Rondae Jefferson and four-star shooting guard Elliott Pitts.

With Solomon Hill and Kevin Parrom graduating in May, Jefferson is expected to fill the vacancy at the three, and his skillset fits perfectly, according to Miller.

“He’s a warrior,” Miller said.

“He’s similar to Solomon in that he can do a lot of things. He can handle the ball. I think he has a chance to be a great defensive player.

“He’s very unselfish, can pass, is a great teammate. He can be at a lot of different spots. His versatility is the greatest thing

that he has going for him, and he’s a winner.”

Jefferson comes from Chester High School in Pennsylvania, where his team has won 58 games in a row.

As for Pitts, Miller said he doesn’t feel like Pitts is getting the credit he deserves.

“Part of it is physically, he’s a late developer,” Miller said. “I think he’s going to grow. He’s certainly going to be heavier once he gets here.”

Miller said he expects to add “one more, if not two more players” to the 2013 recruiting class, which is currently ranked as the No. 18 class by ESPN. One other top recruit still considering Arizona is five-star power forward Aaron Gordon, who reportedly shrunk his list to three teams, including Arizona.

Arizona’s frontcourt is pretty filled up with the additions of Kaleb Tarczewski, Brandon Ashley and Grant Jerrett this year, but securing the No. 1 prospect in the West would be an impressive coup for Miller.

Alli Gloyd emerges, turnovers still an issue LUKE DAVIS Arizona Daily Wildcat

With seven newcomers, coupled with the loss of point guard Shanita Arnold to graduation and center Aley Rohde’s transferring, the Arizona women’s basketball team needed someone to emerge alongside senior guard Davellyn Whyte.

Through four games, that has been junior transfer Alli Gloyd.

“Alli [Gloyd] works hard and is a team player,” head coach Niya Butts said. “If she can stay active and stay hungry, she’s going to help us throughout the season.”

Gloyd, a native of Phoenix, joined the Wildcats during the offseason from Mesa Community College, where she was the Junior College Player of the Year and a First Team All-American.

“I’ve always wanted to play at Arizona,” Gloyd said. “It’s been a dream of mine for a while.”

Gloyd was a bit inconsistent in the Wildcats’ first two games, scoring 9.5 points per game and 1.5 rebounds.

But on Saturday against Cal State Northridge, Gloyd made her presence felt on both sides of the ball. She finished with 12 points and seven rebounds and was able to get to the free throw line late in the game.

“Alli is a hard worker and is easy to coach,” Butts said.

“We’re glad she’s on our team.”

Butts said she believes Gloyd’s strongest attribute is not her athleticism or her rebounding ability, but her desire to get better.

“I just got to keep working hard and doing what’s best for the team,” Gloyd said. “I want to do whatever I can to help the team.”

Turnovers almost cost Wildcats

For the second time this season, the Wildcats almost lost because of too many turnovers. The Wildcats committed 24 turnovers on Saturday against Cal State Northridge. In their first game on the road against Cal State Bakersfield, the Wildcats turned the ball over 25 times.

Most of the turnovers, especially on Saturday, came from ill-advised passes, or as coach Butts called it, “Globetrotter” passing. The Wildcats also got burned for cross-court passes that got intercepted or tipped.

“I think we just have to slow ourselves down,” Butts said. “For example, I don’t think Northridge turned us over as much as it was just careless passes. We just got to do a better job with focusing.”

Wildcats lose to Central Oklahoma JAMES KELLEY Arizona Daily Wildcat

Central Oklahoma upset Wildcat hockey 3-1 for the second night in a row on Saturday.

After three wins in a row over two top 10 teams, No. 16 Arizona (8-9-0) was swept by the No. 18 Bronchos (8-80) in Oklahoma City.

“Again, we just played average,” head coach Sean Hogan said. “We looked tired [Saturday night], which is disappointing. Three games in three days is hard, but UCO also had three games in three days.”

Central Oklahoma took a 1-0 lead in the first period, then the Bronchos extended their lead with a goal in the second period.

“It’s very disappointing,” senior forward Brian Slugocki said. “I don’t think we played up to our capability at all.”

Though Arizona had to start the road trip by leaving Tucson at 3 a.m. the day of the first game, Slugocki said fatigue wasn’t an excuse because the Bronchos also played three games in three days.

“I don’t know if we were tired,” Slugocki said. “I don’t think that’s why we lost. I think maybe we were a little bit winded from the weekend, but I think when it came down to it, we just

made some mistakes.”

Freshman forward Dane Irving scored Arizona’s goal.

Arizona had 35 shots but just one goal, and Hogan praised UCO sophomore goalie Tory Caldwell.

“We didn’t capitalize on our power play opportunities, but we had a lot of shots and that kid made a lot of saves,” Hogan said.

Junior goalie Steve Sisler made 32 saves.

Arizona went 1-2 on the weekend, including a win at No. 6 Oklahoma 3-1 on Thursday.

“It started off really well, beating Oklahoma,” Slugocki said. “I think maybe we got ahead of ourselves, overlooked Central Oklahoma because they were ranked below us, but I think we’re finally starting to understand what it takes to make a great team every single night. You can’t take any days off.”

In October, the Wildcats endured a disappointing split with No. 20 Eastern Michigan at home.

Hogan doesn’t think the Wildcats take teams ranked below them too lightly.

“Everybody in this league is pretty close, especially the ranked teams,” Hogan said.

“ASU is maybe head and shoulders above at number one, but 5 through 20, everybody is really close.”

Break out of your culinary routine by visiting the Tucson’s Farmers’ Market at multiple locations SOPHIA ZENO Arizona Daily Wildcat

Many students are bored with their daily food routine by this time of the semester, as the options at the Student Union Memorial Center and restaurants near campus start to get old.

If a food routine change needs to be made, why not try a healthy and organic approach?

The Tucson Farmers’ Market has year-round produce as well as homemade goods such as specially crafted soaps, flowers, honey, salsas and more. These markets provide access to the best produce vendors in the area, with affordable prices that might just beat those of the local Trader Joe’s and Sprouts.

The Tucson Farmers’ Market offers a wide variety of tasty foods, including baked goods, cheeses, meats, seafood and produce, and the vendors offer free samples to all visitors. The market is also dog-friendly, and allows buyers to shop with a leashed pet.

Go home for the holidays with a special guest If you’re the guest: Kate Newton Arizona Daily Wildcat

here’s an unspoken consensus that for the entire Thanksgiving weekend, the impending anxiety of finals will be ignored in favor of an all-out assault on homecooked food. But by the time we resurface the following Monday, the five pounds we’ve gained will be the least of our problems.

Take solace in the fact that though Thanksgiving is the equivalent of academic quicksand, it can do some serious favors for your relationship.

Significant others occupy that weird gray area between friends and family, and bringing them home with you for the holidays is the perfect opportunity to see them in the context of the latter. If you’ve been dating for several months, meeting your boyfriend or girlfriend’s family or welcoming them into yours is one of the most genuine gestures you can make to show you’re in it for the long haul.

Make good use of travel time to learn the names and a little bit about the background of the people you’ll be meeting, so you’ll feel much more at ease once you’re standing on their doorstep.

It’s likely each of them played their own vital role in making your significant other the person they are today, so making an effort to get to know them personally immediately sets you apart from anyone they’ve brought home in the past.

Nine times out of 10, it’s best to fall back on humor when the conversation heads in your direction. When my uncles collectively decided to dismiss my boyfriend’s name in

favor of more...colorful choices beginning with the same letter, he laughed it off and immediately earned their respect. Granted, my family is easily impressed, but whether you’re making jokes or paying your dues as their target, laughter and likability have a pretty direct correlation.

If you’re the host:

It may not be your first time in the kitchen, but when the fate press photo of someone’s Thanksgiving is in your hands, the turkey isn’t the only thing in the pressure cooker. Even if you play a minor or nonexistent role in preparing dinner, touch base with your boyfriend or girlfriend to see if they have any special dishes or family

traditions they’d like to see on the table.

Focusing on that aspect of the meal and preparing it together will put your cooking skills on display while making them feel instantly at home.

And when the time comes to hash out sleeping arrangements, don’t argue the separate bedrooms rule in front of your family. Your grandparents’ ears work better than you think, and you will shatter any conception of innocence they may have been clinging to.

If you respect your family’s input, they’re that much more likely to respect the company you keep.

By bringing your boyfriend or girlfriend home for Thanksgiving, you’re testing a lot more than your stomach’s carrying capacity.

But if you couldn’t imagine spending the holidays without them, then follow that feeling: you might have many more holidays to look forward to together.

Heems delivers again on ‘Wild Water Kingdom’ title track that mixes Eastern-sounding synthesizers with a loping groove to outstanding results.
