UA starts NCAA play KYLE JOHNSON Arizona Daily Wildcat

T

he potentially final game of the Arizona men’s basketball season tips off at 4:20 p.m. as the sixth-seeded Wildcats take on the No. 11-seeded Belmont Bruins in Salt Lake City for a second-round game in the NCAA tournament.

Arizona (25-7, 12-6 Pac-12) finished the regular season ranked No. 21 in the AP Poll, one of only 11 teams to be ranked in the poll the entire season. But the Wildcats are 5-5 in their last 10 games and don’t exactly have a good track record against the Bruins this year.

It’s time to break down Arizona’s battle with Belmont (26-6, 14-2 OVC) in what is considered a trendy upset pick.

“Whatever they say is a part of what they do as a professional and it doesn’t affect me or how I play on the court,” senior forward Solomon Hill said. “Everyone on our team knows that we’re a great team. People are always going to throw things out like that because everyone is there to play. The fact is that we’re there to win, just like everybody else.”

Solomon Hill would be the tallest starter on Belmont.

Noack and forward Blake Jenkins are the tallest regulars for the Bruins at 6-foot-7. Center Chad Lang does reach 6-foot-11, but the sophomore only saw 84 total minutes this season.

Not surprisingly, then, Belmont is

The number of stolen bikes on campus has increased by 47 percent, according to UAPD records.

There were 331 bikes reported stolen to the University of Arizona Police Department in 2012, compared to 225 in 2011.

The increase in numbers could be related to two factors, according to Joe Bermudez, a UAPD crime prevention officer. As the student population increases, so do opportunities for bike thefts.

However, the increase could also just be that more students are reporting the crimes than before, as not all victims report their stolen property, he added.

“We do see a good number of it [bike theft] because property crimes are our highest crimes on campus,” Bermudez said.

Meagan Snyder, a communications sophomore, was one of the many victims of bicycle theft in the last year. After leaving her bicycle on campus for approximately one week, she returned to find both her bicycle and U-lock missing.

“I was kind of shocked,” Snyder said. Snyder did not report the theft.

As a result of the incident, Snyder said she had to walk to her classes until she could purchase a new bike. She now takes more precautions when leaving her bike on campus.

“I just never leave it anywhere overnight and I’m a lot more careful,” Snyder said.

Gary Bruening, a biomedical engineering sophomore, said he also had his bike stolen last year.

After locking his bicycle in a dorm courtyard, he returned a few days later to find it had disappeared.

Although he called UAPD and reported the incident, he never saw his bike again.

“It was really annoying …

It was in the dorm courtyard, you know, on campus with two locks,” Bruening said. “That was my only mode of transportation off-campus, so I didn’t have that anymore.”

He went without a bicycle for

3-Point woes

After Arizona’s loss to UCLA in the Pac-12 tournament semifinal, head coach Sean Miller brought up the Wildcats’ blend of youth and experience. This mix of veteran leadership and youthful athleticism has given Arizona depth and balance all season long.

Really, the only area the Wildcats have really struggled in is 3-point defense. And that’s exactly where Belmont excels.

Arizona is ranked No. 276 in threepoint defense in the nation, allowing opponents to shoot 36 percent from deep against them. In the final loss of the season, UCLA made just 1-of-12 from deep, but in the other six losses, opponents shot about 50 percent from beyond the arc. That could be problematic considering that Belmont’s top scorer, guard Ian Clark, leads the nation with a threepoint percentage of 46.3.

“We have to be aggressive on defense,” Hill said. “They have a great scorer, a very efficient player [Clark].

They can shoot the ball from every position. If they decide to live by the 3-point line, we have done a great job, especially in the last tournament, at keeping teams off the 3-point line.

“From the way we have been playing these past couple games, we are ready for any challenge.”

But Clark, a senior who averages 18.1 points per game, isn’t the only weapon for the Bruins. Belmont is ranked fourth in the nation for field

goal percentage (49.4 percent) and has another sharpshooter in senior forward Trevor Noack (41.8 percent).

Arizona guard Nick Johnson was designated as the team’s defensive stopper. If Arizona wants to stave off the upset, it’ll need Johnson to lock down Clark. Or hope the Bruins have a cold shooting night.

Rebounding down low

Arizona’s size down low has been crucial at times this year, with the three freshmen big men and sophomore Angelo Chol giving Arizona a height advantage in most games. But Arizona doesn’t need the 7-foot Kaleb Tarczewski to tower over the Bruins. Heck, small forward

The UA Eller College of Management’s full-time MBA program is now ranked in the top 50 in the nation.

The program rose from 57th to 44th in the 2014 graduate rankings complied by U.S. News and World Report. The 13-slot climb makes Eller the program with the greatest increase in the top 50 this year, ratifying the title of “MBA Program on the Rise” it was awarded last year.

“We’ve worked really hard to make that change, so it’s great to see that success from all of our hard work,” said Jennifer Bublitz, assistant dean of the Eller MBA program. “We took a look at what they were looking at in the rankings to really understand what could we influence.”

When ranking the nation’s fulltime MBA programs, U.S. News and World Report considers peer and recruiter reputation, average GMAT scores, average starting salary, percentage of students employed upon graduation and many smaller factors, according to the website.

“The big changes we made were in the quality of the students we enrolled in our program, specifically measured by the GMAT,” Bublitz said. ”By attracting and enrolling higher quality students, we provide a better experience for all of our students

in the classroom.”

Last year the MBA program recruited the strongest incoming class in several years, based on GMAT scores and work experience, and the program promises to keep improving its national ranking by providing students with access

to the best jobs on the market through contacts, job postings and networking, Bublitz said.

“I expect that the incoming class for next year will be even stronger than ours was this year because as the rankings improve, stronger students are going to be drawn to this program, which is just going to further strengthen the national ranking of the Eller MBA,” said Carly Gordon, a firstyear graduate student in the MBA program.

The increase in the MBA program’s ranking not only caught the attention of graduate students in Eller, but also sparked interest from undergraduates in the Eller College of Management.

“The ranking definitely influences my decision,” said Dean Avrahami, a sophomore in the Eller undergraduate program, when discussing his plans to apply for an MBA program. “It would definitely influence me because I know that Eller is an amazing school and worldwide, it’s a great business school.”

Mirror lab progresses on giant telescope work Max Mangold Arizona Daily Wildcat

After casting the second of seven mirrors for the Giant Magellan Telescope in January, the UA GMT staff are steadily casting the third and speeding toward a new perspective on the universe.

The Steward Observatory Mirror Lab is home to the construction of the GMT, which “will be one of the next class of super giant earthbased telescopes that promises to revolutionize our view and understanding of the universe,” according to the GMT website.

The telescope will have a resolving power 10 times greater than the Hubble Space Telescope.

Although developed in the mirror lab, the assembled telescope, which is expected to be finished in 2018, will be transported to and operated at Las Campanas peak, Chile, due to the area’s altitude and lack of air pollution.

Some scientists said they hope this new technology will help to answer ageless questions about our surrounding universe, as well as to create new ones.

“It’s really an exciting time in astronomy right now,” said Philip

Hinz, a member of the GMT scientific advisory committee. “The tools are still advancing fast enough where you know you can make a lot of surprising discoveries ahead of what people might even think was out there.”

The seven 27-foot monolith mirrors composing the telescope are the world’s largest spun-cast mirrors, the first of which was cast, ground, polished and completed in October 2012. Before the accomplishment of this “milestone,” according to Buddy Martin, a polishing scientist at the mirror lab, scientists had to overcome several unforeseen difficulties that caused construction to last longer than expected.

However, the process has since increased in efficiency.

Martin said he believes mirrors will now be cast at around 1-year intervals, with the third segment being cast in August.

“These mirrors are different from anything we’ve made, different from anything anyone’s ever made,” Martin added.

Six of the mirrors composing the telescope are off-axis segments, which border a central on-axis segment. Together, the mirrors

resemble a “flower petal” or “Pringles potato chip,” according to staff members. Due to this distinct shape, each mirror must be polished in a unique manner to funnel light from space by striking the mirrors to secondary mirrors, then below to the primary central mirror, where cameras use the light to determine how far away objects are.

“It’s not just seeing a little dot of light, it’s seeing the chemical evidence for life, and we have that possibility with these bigger telescopes,” said Roger Angel, scientific director of the mirror lab.

Martin said the magnification will create new possibilities for the GMT. “It’ll allow astronomers to study galaxies that are more distant than anything that’s been studied,” Martin said. “When you look at something more distant, you’re looking back in time, because the light takes billions of years to get to us.”

While the legacy of GMT’s current and future discoveries can only be guessed, Dennis Zaritsky, deputy director of the mirror lab, predicts they will have a large impact.

“It really is the new generation,” Zaritsky said. “It’s going to take 10 years to be ready, and then it’ll be the world’s leading telescope for the next couple decades, so it really is a project for the coming generation.”

A student-run philanthropy event at the UA will help raise money for St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital in the next few weeks.

Up ‘til Dawn is a student-run, campus-wide philanthropy event that will take place in the Student Union Memorial Center Grand Ballroom on April 7 and raise money for St. Jude’s, which relies primarily on public funding through donations. The hospital requires $1.8 million a day to fulfill its purpose of providing treatment to children with cancer and other catastrophic diseases free of charge.

Those interested in helping can bring at least 35 addresses of friends and family to send them a prewritten letter requesting donations to help St. Jude’s.

Last year’s Up ‘til Dawn event raised more than $42,000 for St. Jude’s. This year, the event’s goal is $80,000.

“It’d be really exciting if we got to reach our goal,” said Elizabeth Graham, a retailing and consumer sciences senior and executive director on the philanthropy event’s board. “Just knowing that St. Jude’s Hospital needs $1.8 million a day and that we are trying to raise money for them, even just a small chunk of that, is a huge accomplishment.”

However, Graham said she is worried some students might not participate because it is organized through Greek Life.

“I think the problem that we’ve had is that it’s called the all-greek philanthropy event and I think that that deters other people from wanting to participate,” Graham said. “We really want clubs and organizations to be a part of it as well.”

All greek organizations are required to participate in the event, according to Graham. They will get

involved by conducting some of the activities at the event.

Festivities will include free food, prizes, raffles and live performances

by Black N’ Blue Hip Hop Crew, Cat Call, Zach White, Jake Broido and Something Like Seduction.

“It’s important because it brings all of Greek Life together for a great cause,” said Ashley Lovich, an education sophomore and president of Sigma Kappa sorority.

“Helping St. Jude’s out by raising money to help find a cure for cancer is awesome and it’s a great way to get involved in the community.”

St. Jude’s cares for 7,800 patients yearly, according to Kimberly Weeth, event marketing representative at the hospital. Most of the patients are out-patient and visit regularly for chemotherapy treatments. St. Jude’s has seen a significant amount of success in previous years from its involvement with the UA, Weeth said.

“I am blown away by the work the executive committee has done,” Weeth said. “They are organized and compassionate. They really want to make the student body understand why they are doing this. I credit a lot of the success to [the UA’s] executive committee.”

Week to honor grad students kicks off Ryan Revock Arizona Daily Wildcat

Ryan Revock/Arizona Daily Wildcat

Kevin Chau, the GPSC events director, helped organize this year’s Graduate and Professional Student Appreciation Week.

The first event is this Sunday and the appreciation week continues until Friday.

Graduate and professional students at the UA will be appreciated for their work next week.

Graduate and Professional Student Appreciation Week will kick off on Sunday and last until next Friday. “We want as many awesome, rad and incredible University of Arizona graduate and professional students to come out to GPSA week and celebrate, celebrate with us and eat good food,� said Zachary Brooks, Graduate and Professional Student Council president.

The week starts with Family Fun Day at La Aldea from 12 p.m. to 2 p.m. This year’s Family Fun Day this year is a collaboration with the International Student Services office, so the event will be larger than in years past, said Kevin Chau, GPSC events director. The event will not only include food but also face painting, henna tattoos, a bouncy castle and games. “I think it is an excellent idea to

appreciate and celebrate graduate students with different events,� said Dylan Baun, a graduate student studying Middle Eastern and North African Studies. “Personally, as a busy graduate student, I don’t know if I will attend, but I think it is a great idea.�

On Monday, “Geeks who Drink� will take place at the Trident Grill from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m. The event includes a trivia game focusing on the state of Arizona, the UA and categories specific to graduate and professional students, said Cassie Fausel, GPSC social chair and representative for the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences. There will be UA baseball tickets and memorabilia as prizes, Chau said.

The festivities will start to wind down on Friday with the Backyard BBQ on the UA Mall from 11:30 a.m. to 1 p.m., which will provide free lunch to the first 600 graduate and professional students who attend. At the barbeque, GPSC presidential and vice presidential candidates will be given the opportunity to speak for several minutes, Chau said. The GPSC candidates have not yet been announced.

Voting for all positions will begin April 1 and run through April 5. “I think it [GPSA Week] is a gesture of the GPSC trying to appreciate all the hard work graduate students do here,� Chau said, “and thanking them for supporting what the council does, so we count this as a gesture of appreciating their presence.�

You must register for the event at gpsc.arizona.edu/socials-and-otherevents.

Events for GPSA Week

-North Campus Breakfast in the College of Medicine courtyard on March 26 from 9 a.m. to 11 a.m.

-Tour at the Flandrau Science Center and Planetarium on March 27 from 6 p.m. to 7:30 p.m.

-Happy hour at Sky Bar on March 29 from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m.

ASUA approves event, scholarship funding alison dorf Arizona Daily Wildcat

The undergraduate senate approved funding for an upcoming sustainability event and scholarship during its weekly meeting on Wednesday evening.

Students for Sustainability, a program of the Associated Students of the University of Arizona, gave a presentation and requested $2,000 during the previous senate meeting to provide its members with tents, tables and chairs at its upcoming Earth Day event. “I do believe that we should approve the full amount because we are approaching our end of the year and we have plenty of our budget left,� said Sen. Jake Barman. “I think it’s a great event that hits the majority of students, especially being on the [UA] Mall.�

The ASUA Senate also approved funding for an Academic Enrichment Scholarship that totaled $3,000.

ASUA Academic Affairs Director Anthony Carli was unable to attend the meeting, but he wrote a letter that was read to senate members

by ASUA President Katy Murray. “We are not strangers to the fact that students face incredible economic strain when attending

our university,� Carli said in the letter. “As a student government, we have a responsibility to ease this burden as a responsible, practical and tangible way.�

In prior years, the scholarship has provided three students with $1,000 scholarships in the form of a UofA Bookstore gift card. This year, the scholarship will be given out in the form of a check, to allow recipients to spend the money wherever they need to. “Very simply, we have an opportunity to take care of the best and brightest Wildcats on campus,� Carli said. “This is an obligation that we must uphold.�

Part of the scholarship application will ask students how they plan to spend their money. “Not only is it something that I think would mean a lot from ASUA — giving money to students to help them out financially — but I also I think that it’s something that is very feasible considering the budget at this point and the availability of funds,� Murray said.

Sen. Joel Torres expressed his support for the scholarship, as well as suggested some improvements, such as going through Scholarship Universe and having students attach their FAFSA to the scholarship to evaluate their Expected Family Contribution.

Briana Sanchez/arizona Daily Wildcat

ASUA discusses new organizations, current clubs and controversy at its Feb. 20 meeting. At the most recent meeting Wednesday night, senators approved funding for an upcoming event and scholarship.

“There’s so many more students on this campus that have financial need than other students,� Torres said. “I think that maybe that’s one thing that should be looked into in the future.�

Senate members also approved the Collegiate Housing and Infrastructure Act Resolution and the ASUA Appropriations Board Consent Agenda.

During their reports, several senators

expressed gratitude for their recent election, including Sen. Morgan Abraham, Sen. Valerie Hanna and Sen. Danielle Novelly. “Obviously I was lucky enough to have been elected to student body president elect right now, so I’m incredibly excited about that,�

Abraham said.

Aside from shadowing Murray for the past two days, Abraham said he will be presenting bylaw changes for the cabinet on Wednesday.

Gendered marketing relies on stereotypes RAZANNE CHATILA Arizona Daily Wildcat

T

ablets. Pens. Greek yogurt.

These three items are not typically used by or associated with one gender. They are simply products.

Recently, however, these everyday items have been the focus of sexist advertising campaigns.

Every day we are exposed to an array of these advertisements, and although we might not realize it, they are affecting us.

These advertisements portray an overgeneralized and idealistic version of reality, but most people still use them as a measuring stick when it comes to beauty, health or behavior. This in turn creates unattainable goals and expectations that can lead to a variety of negative consequences.

For example, a study by Robert Rydell, an assistant professor at Indiana University, found that women don’t learn as well when they are reminded of negative gender stereotypes before performing an exercise, according to Psychology Today magazine.

This is especially relevant when it comes to advertisements geared toward specific genders. These types of ads create overgeneralized images of a specific gender while supposedly presenting what is considered “normal” in our society, perpetuating gender stereotypes.

People are not products. They have unique traits, emotions and capabilities. Instead of advertising to these needs, marketers tend to illustrate what an individual “should be.”

Edward Ackerley, an instructor in the Eller College of Management department of marketing, said that advertising is reflective of the current mindset of society.

“It’s simply like holding up a mirror,” Ackerley said. “Advertising will only go so far as society has gone.”

It seems like recent advertisements have become bolder than ever in their use of gender stereotypes and sexism to try to sell a product.

Just last fall, the Middle East-based company Eurostar released a tablet that it called “the world’s first tablet exclusively for women,” and plans to start selling on Amazon.

To make it easier on women, the tablet has apps already downloaded on it that cater to what women “do and want.” These include: weight loss, yoga, recipes, shopping and a measurement converter, among others.

Plus, the background is pink.

These notions of “what women want” are based on outdated stereotypes.

What makes this new trend worse is that it’s not just Eurostar — companies like BIC, which released a line of pens for females, and Powerful Men LLC have also advertised “gender-specific” products in the past year.

Powerful Men LLC recently released Greek yogurt called “Powerful Yogurt” or, as Grub Street has dubbed it, “brogurt.” The yogurt is targeted at men because it is high in protein.

According to Ackerley, back in the 1970s and 1980s there was a move away from targeting specific groups and toward being more inclusive.

It seems that this is no longer the case.

Instead of trying to cater products to a wide range of individuals, marketers are taking minute aspects of societal expectations and amplifying them.

However, some blame also falls on us.

If our society lets this type of advertising continue, we will set a precedent for future products and how they will be marketed — and allow greedy businesses to define the limitations of our genders.

A UAPD officer went to the Science-Engineering Library after a UA student caused a disturbance at 6:41 p.m. on March 17.

The woman said she had come to the library to sit with a man whom she had known for two weeks. The two had exchanged numbers after the man approached her on campus, she said.

When the woman tried to sit with the man, moving several of his belongings, he became upset and said, “Fucking ho!” The woman said she returned the remark and walked away.

The man said he had been at the library for several hours and had positioned his belongings to reserve a spot at his table for a friend. The woman then came over, threw his things on the floor, cursed and walked away, he said.

The man notified UAPD shortly after.

A witness who had been working near the man for several hours said the man had been quiet before the woman arrived, but that the woman had been loud and distracting as she spoke on her phone. The man had asked her to quiet down, the witness said, and she began to curse at him.

Neither student wanted to press charges against the other, and police advised the two to stay away from each other.

Three UA students were cited and released on charges related to underage drinking after police spoke with a woman who had been urinating in public at 2:06 a.m. on March 18.

A University of Arizona Police Department officer stopped to check the welfare of a woman urinating in public near Martin Avenue and Second Street. A man and woman were standing on the sidewalk nearby and yelling at her to “get the fuck over here,” according to a police report.

When the man noticed UAPD officers, he added, “Now you did it, the cops are here!”

The woman stood up from a squatting position behind a bush, pulled up her underwear and walked over to join the man and woman.

The officer spoke with the students. They said they hadn’t been arguing with each other, but were yelling because they just wanted their friend to hurry up. All three students showed signs of intoxication, but the man refused to participate in a breath test.

“No, because without a breath test, it’s your word against mine,” he said.

The officer then spoke with the student who had been squatting behind a bush, who admitted to having urinated. She said she had needed to use a restroom, but there were none nearby. She also admitted to consuming alcohol earlier that evening. The man became angry, stepping toward her in an “aggressive manner” and telling her, “Shut the fuck up,” according to the police report. Police had him sit to calm down.

The students told police they’d received the alcohol from a man at a gas station that they wouldn’t identify.

They were all cited and charged with minor in possession, while one of the women received a criminal littering charge for urinating in public. The officer then took all three students to their residence halls.

FIDLAR, Wavves get rowdy at Congress ALYSSA DEMEMBER/ARIZONA DAILY WILDCAT

FIDLAR GUITARIST ZAC CARPER and drummer Max Kuehn tear down the house at Club Congress on March 19. FIDLAR is on tour with Wavves and Cheatahs for the next five weeks in support of their self-titled album, out now on Mom + Pop Music.

ALEXANDRA GIROUX Arizona Daily Wildcat

B

odies thrashing, beer sloshing, bass thumping — Club Congress was mayhem when FIDLAR and Wavves took the stage Tuesday night. Tucson was their second stop on their six-week tour filled with copious amounts of alcohol and headbanging fans.

If Wavves are the seasoned veterans of the skatepark, FIDLAR is the new kid who just did a varial heelflip in their faces. As the band only released its first album in January, the newbies had a lot to prove to an audience of Wavves fans.

But these boys don’t mess around. Opening with “Cheap Beer,” FIDLAR immediately set the tone for its set and the entire night.

As though they had just stepped on stage after a romp on the halfpipe, the band members’ casual vibe led in to vicious guitar playing and ear-splitting vocals.

The unsure crowd immediately became comfortable with the newcomers after some encouraging words: “Push each other around,” shouted by lead singer Zac Carper before he dove into the next song and let the moshing ensue.

The unruly tempo took the audience on a garage band acid trip. “Infectious” is the only

word worthy of describing the effect on the entire room as the end of each song gave way to more and more rambunctious shouting and applause.

As Wavves’ set began, the scent of booze, sweat and cigarettes wafted through the room.

The band proclaimed its drunkenness, but said it would only add to the fun. With the exception of spontaneous interactions with the crowd, Wavves might as well have been jamming out on a Saturday night in some dingy basement in Los Angeles.

Before most songs, a guitar shrill echoed through the room to remind the concert-goers that this is the epitome of rock ‘n’ roll. The tone of each guitar strum was a throwback to days of Dr. Martens and waist-tied flannels. It seems this generation has found its version of grunge rock; even the bassist, who had newly bleached hair and tattered pants, had a very Kurt Cobain air about him.

Niceties were few and far between as lead singer Nathan Williams shouted, “Nice beanie, motherfucker,” at a rowdy kid. Wavves clearly weren’t concerned with making friends — only making music.

Wavves’ exit was innately punk. No encore was played or necessary; the band just left in its wake a job well done and a satisfied, bruised and battered audience.

l a u n n 10th a

Over spring break, I had the pleasure of making a home-cooked dinner with my mom after a relaxing day of perusing olive mills and farmers’ markets in my hometown of Gilbert, Ariz. A fresh loaf of Italian bread from the Olive Mill (in Queen Creek) and organic mixed greens from the farmers’ market a few minutes from our home paired perfectly with gnocchi, small Italian dumplings made with potatoes and flour.

The end result was delightful Italian cuisine, a perfectly light and fresh meal for a spring day.

For the main dish: A box of gnocchi Emeril Lagasse’s All Natural “Roasted Gaaahlic” sauce. (Being Italian ourselves, we’re pretty critical of jarred sauces, but this one is great.)

Grated fresh Asiago Romano cheese Fresh baked bread. Any kind you’d like, but go for the crunchy, hard crust and spread it with butter or dip it in olive oil and balsamic vinaigrette.

For the salad: Romaine lettuce Red leaf lettuce Baby spinach Oak leaf Strawberries Mandarin oranges Blueberries Blood oranges Dressing: Lemon-flavored or plain extra virgin olive oil and balsamic vinaigrette or the juice of two lemons Cooking the gnocchi is essentially like cooking spaghetti: Bring water to a boil, add the gnocchi, reduce the heat and cover. Follow the boiling instructions and times on your particular box. It usually takes around four to six minutes, depending on the amount. Heat up the sauce in a separate pan on medium to low heat.

Grate the cheese onto a small dish and slice your bread with a large, serrated knife.

Get started on the salad while the gnocchi is cooking. First, thoroughly wash all of the produce. Then just slice the lettuce, strawberries and oranges, throw in the blueberries and toss the salad a few times over with your choice of dressing.

When the gnocchi is nice and chewy but just slightly firm, or “al dente,” take it off of the burner and carefully strain the water. Pair it all with a glass of rose wine and enjoy.

Bike Theft from page 1

approximately nine months, unable to ride to the store or to his physical therapy appointments.

Bruening said he now uses two locks and has his bike registered with Parking and Transportation Services.

Having registered the bike can be extremely beneficial to a victim of bike theft, according to Bermudez. This provides PTS with a serial number for the bike so that UAPD can properly identify it if it is ever recovered. Bikes can be registered for free at the Campus Bicycle Station on the UA Mall.

It’s also valuable for bicyclists to know how to lock and secure their bike properly.

“Always protect your tires … people put their lock on the tire and they [criminals] steal the whole bike, or they put it on the bike and they steal the tire,” said Jorge Garza, a bike ambassador for the Pima County Bicycle and Pedestrian Program at the Campus Bicycle Station.

Garza suggested using a U-lock instead of a cable lock, as cable locks can be cut easily.

Arizona Daily Wildcat • 7 “Always lock the bikes in well-lit, well-travelled areas where there is the chance for a lot of foot traffic,” Bermudez said. “If someone does see someone trying to tamper with it, hopefully they’ll notice that and call it in.”

Over the five-year period from 2006 to 2010, the number of stolen bikes actually decreased by 25 percent, according to the 2012 UA Area Bicycle and Pedestrian Plan. During this time, 3,424 bikes were reported stolen.

In 2009 and 2010, the location with the highest number of stolen bikes reported was the Student Recreation Center, followed by the UA Main Library and McClelland Hall.

In 2011, the library and Manzanita-Mohave Residence Hall had the highest numbers.

Yet bike theft is a problem across the entire campus. Taking the proper precautions when locking a bike is the best defense against theft.

“Criminals, they watch, they study people, they look at … things that are happening around them so that they don’t get caught,” Bermudez said.

“They’ll look at areas and see, ‘Okay, when’s the best time to do this?’”

Bublitz and Hope Schau, associate dean of the Eller MBA programs, said they hope to continue this upward trend in the national rankings far into the future by setting a high standard of excellence and quality of experience in their programs.

“Hope [Shau] has a vision to deliver an excellent experience to our students and to continue to increase the quality of our incoming classes,” Bublitz said. “We need to just communicate the experience that we offer to a larger number of people so that they know about the number of great programs we have here.”

JERUSALEM — President Barack Obama and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu attempted to set aside past differences Wednesday and project a united front over how to tackle the threat of Iran’s purported nuclear weapons program and other regional challenges.

But even as they tried to strike a more conciliatory tone, the two leaders stuck to sharply different timetables for potentially taking military action. Obama said Iran was at least a year away from developing a nuclear bomb, while Netanyahu warned that the Islamic Republic must be stopped sooner.

Nevertheless, the men displayed a measure of personal rapport that had been lacking in previous encounters, with Obama offering a tribute to Netanyahu’s slain brother that nearly moved the prime minister to tears.

And though there appeared to be no substantive change in their positions, Netanyahu offered one of his strongest statements yet of confidence in Obama’s commitment to Israel’s security.

“I’m absolutely convinced that the president is determined to prevent Iran from getting nuclear weapons,” Netanyahu said, though he added his oft-stated declaration that Israel reserves the right to defend itself.

Reassuring Netanyahu, and perhaps more importantly the Israeli public, is a major goal of the trip, whose official slogan is “Unbreakable Alliance.” Obama called the U.S. commitment to Israel’s security a “solemn obligation” and said his administration would ensure that $200 million earmarked for Israel’s Iron Dome missile defense system this year would not be threatened by U.S. budget cuts.

“We will do what is necessary to prevent Iran from getting the world’s worst weapons,” he said. “Israel’s security is guaranteed because it has a great deal on its side, including the unwavering support of the United States of America.”

He vowed to maintain Israel’s qualitative military edge in the Middle East so it can “defend itself, by itself, against any threat.”

The two agree that Iran should not be allowed to develop a nuclear bomb and that military force might be necessary to stop it. But there is a long-standing dispute between them over exactly when to set the deadline for a military strike.

Netanyahu, who last year challenged Obama to publicly announce his “red line” for Iran, seeks an earlier deadline so Israel might still have the option to launch a unilateral attack in the event the U.S. does not take action. “Whatever time is left, there’s not a lot of time,” he said Wednesday.

With its superior weapons capabilities and military, the U.S. believes it can wait longer, and Obama wants to give economic and diplomatic sanctions more time.

Despite the leaders’ lingering differences, concern about a unilateral Israeli strike has receded in recent months, partly because Iran has buried many of its nuclear facilities so deep that they will be difficult for Israel to reach by itself.

In addition, after Israel’s national election in January, Netanyahu is weaker politically. His new defense minister, Moshe Yaalon, has voiced skepticism about Israel striking Iran without U.S. support.

Another shared concern is the growing unrest in Syria, which borders Israel, and allegations that the embattled government of President Bashar Assad has used chemical weapons against its population.

Obama said his administration was still studying reports that Assad’s military had used the banned weapons on civilians in a village in northern Syria. Israel has said it believes the reports are true. Assad’s government says the chemical attack was launched by anti-Assad rebels.

Obama, who has dismissed the idea that the Syrian opposition launched a chemical attack, said that his administration viewed the use of such weapons as a “game-changer” but that “having the facts before you act is very important.”

Neither man spoke extensively about the Palestinian conflict, though Netanyahu expressed hope that the visit would help “turn a page in our relations with the Palestinians” and reopen peace negotiations.

The Wildcats haven’t exactly been the most careful team with the ball this season. With no true point guard on the team — senior Mark Lyons is a combo guard at best — Arizona has had its fair share of trouble with turnovers.

Arizona sits near the middle of the pack (No. 161) with 13.1 turnovers per game, and Lyons has 29 assists to 33 turnovers in games against tournament opponents.

Turnovers aren’t always the death of Arizona, though, as the Wildcats beat Southern Miss early in the season despite 27 giveaways. That said, Belmont won’t make ball control easy Thursday.

The Bruins are fifth in steals per game (9.8) and eighth in opponent turnovers per game (17.4). Junior forward J.J. Mann and senior guard Kerron Johnson lead the defensive scrappiness for Belmont.

Arizona obviously has the talent advantage and doesn’t lack senior leadership, as is sometimes the case with major conference teams. The game is also in Salt Lake City, giving the Wildcats a nice home court advantage.

Miller’s side is as strong of a sixth seed as they come this year.

But Belmont is an equally dangerous 11-seed.

The Bruins won at Stanford (70-62) and against Oral Roberts (70-67), but so did Arizona. Also, all six of Belmont’s losses came away from home (11-6 on the road and neutral sites).

If Arizona plays well, it should advance to the second round.

Don’t be surprised if Belmont snatches the upset, though, because this is exactly the type of team the Wildcats wanted to avoid in the first round.

“Against a team like Belmont, you have to get at them early,” Hill said. “You don’t want them to hang around. We really need to keep our foot on the gas and have a complete game.”

Wildcats already trailing in conference JAMES KELLEY Arizona Daily Wildcat

Unless Arizona softball starts beating ranked teams, and fast, it won’t get a chance to win its ninth national championship, as conference play starts with nearly every Pac-12 team ranked.

Seven of the nine Pac-12 teams are ranked in the media poll, and eight are in the coaches’ rankings. The Conference of Champions has won the NCAA title 23 of the 30 times it has been contested.

Last season, eight teams made the NCAA tournament, five advanced to the Super Regionals and three went to the Women’s College World Series.

This week, Pac-12 teams finally start conference play after weeks of early-season weekend tournaments.

Each team plays one three-game series against league rivals, home or away.

Arizona has most of its big games at home, hosting No. 17 Washington, No. 5 California, No. 13 UCLA and No. 2 ASU and traveling to Utah, No. 10 Oregon, Oregon State and No. 16 Stanford.

USC, Washington State and Colorado don’t have teams.

California (23-3)

The Golden Bears are 2-1 against ranked teams, beating No. 15 Baylor and No. 23 Hawaii, but they have only played one home game, winning 7-2 against Pacific.

Cal was the coaches’ pick to win the conference, earning seven of eight first-place votes, with the other one going to ASU, which was chosen to finish second.

Arizona State (29-2)

The Sun Devils are ranked the highest, No. 2 in both polls, but they only have two wins against ranked teams, going 2-2 against them, beating No. 9 Texas and No. 19 Virginia Tech.

ASU is 25-1 at home, only leaving home to go to Fullerton, Calif., for the Judi Garman Classic, where it went 4-1.

Oregon (23-4)

Not just about pretty uniforms, the Ducks have also looked good on the diamond. UO beat No. 12 LSU 10-2 and No. 14 Michigan 13-4 in the Citrus Classic in Orlando, Fla.

UCLA (23-4)

The Bruins are 3-1 against ranked teams, beating No. 8 Tennessee and No. 12 LSU both 2-0 and losing 7-6 to No. 4 Texas A&M in eight innings.

Despite L.A.’s attractive weather, the Bruins have only played six home games, going 4-2, losing in an extra inning affair to the Aggies and falling to Cal State Fullerton 11-5.

Stanford (22-5)

The Cardinal has mostly stayed in California, save for a trip to one of ASU’s tournaments. It beat No. 24 Georgia and then No. 25, but not unranked, Florida State at the Mary Nutter Collegiate Classic in Cathedral City, Calif.

Washington (22-7)

Scan with Smart Phone

The Huskies have played the most interesting schedule thus far, traveling to Hawaii, San Diego, Colorado, hosting a tournament in Washington in early March and going to the Fullerton and Palm Springs tournaments like the rest of the Pac. UW beat No. 23 Hawaii 3-1 on the road and Florida State 2-0 and Georgia 14-2 at the Mary Nutter Classic.

The farthest east any of the Pac-12 teams have traveled so far this year was Washington’s going to the Colorado State Tournament, where the Huskies won four games against mid-majors.

Arizona (20-8)

Something has to give this weekend when the Wildcats host No. 17 Washington. Arizona hasn’t beaten a ranked team yet, going 0-6, but is undefeated at home, 13-0.

Freshman pitcher Nancy Bowling (4-3) tallied a career-high 10 strikeouts against No. 1 Oklahoma in a 4-0 loss last weekend, including six in a row at one point, through the heart of the Sooners’ lineup.

Arizona was picked to finish fifth in the preseason coaches’ poll.

Oregon State (21-5)

The only original Pac-10 team not ranked in the media poll, the Beavers are No. 24 by the coaches’ vote.

OSU is 0-1 against ranked teams after losing 14-2 to Oklahoma in five innings via the mercy rule.

Butler, Baker leading candidates to back up All-American Ka’Deem

ALL-AMERICAN KA’DEEM CAREY looks to score in a win against Colorado last season. Carey’s back up, Daniel Jenkins, transferred to Washington State in January, opening up a spot for multiple running backs.

Jared Baker and Kylan Butler aren’t big name Arizona football players, as of right now.

With the Wildcats’ secondleading rushing running back, Daniel Jenkins, gone, Baker and Butler are now the ones who will be supporting the nation’s leading rusher, Arizona running back Ka’Deem Carey.

The Wildcats lost Jenkins in January when he transferred to play his final season at Washington State.

Jenkins graduated from the UA in the fall but chose to take his talents to Pullman, Wash., where he is expected to see more playing time. “[Jenkins] was a good kid; he did everything we asked of him,” co-offensive coordinator Calvin Magee said. “He gave us depth and played a huge role for our team last season behind Ka’Deem.”

The complementary back played in all 13 games for Arizona but still only carried the ball 67 times.

His new replacements, Baker and Butler, have a

combined total of 31 career carries. Baker rushed for 85 yards on 20 carries and one touchdown last year as a freshman. Butler, a redshirt senior, has 11 career rushes for 57 yards in his three years at the UA. “We want to find three or four backs that we can win with,” head coach Rich Rodriguez said, “and with the guys we got now and the guys we got coming in the fall we’ll be able to find at least three, I think.”

Three-star high school recruits Pierre Cormier, Zachary Green, T.J. Johnson and Mauriece Lee will also compete for Jenkins’ old job when they join the program in the fall. But for now, it’s Baker and Butler’s opportunity to get a head start.

“We’re just using the spring as an opportunity to get into shape,” Baker said. “[Butler] and I are close, and he’s good competition.”

As a freshman in 2012, Baker saw limited playing time as a reserve, but did manage to get on the field on special teams. Baker was Arizona’s main kick returner for the final seven games of the season,

ARIZONA RUNNING BACK Kylan Butler runs the ball in a win against South Carolina State last season. Butler and sophomore Jared Baker are the leading candidates to back up Ka’Deem Carey heading into next season.

including in the New Mexico Bowl.

As a running back, Baker saw most of his action in week three against South Carolina State. In that game he got 10 carries for 44 yards and scored his first and only collegiate touchdown.

“We’re all tight and [a] solid all-around group,” Butler said about the running backs. “[Baker is] a cool dude and we work so closely together that we feed off each other when we compete.”

Butler’s role since coming to the UA in 2009 has been predominantly that of a reserve, and he has seen most of his playing time on special teams.

Against Utah in 2012, Butler made a momentum swinging tackle on a fake punt by the Utes in the fourth quarter.

His hustle and dedication to the Wildcats’ program has not gone unnoticed by his coaches, and might give him a slight edge going into the fall.

“Kylan is a veteran and has put in a lot of work to get to know the new system,” Magee said. “He’s a hard worker and understands what we need from him.”

A depth chart won’t be established until the fall, so there is plenty of time for Butler and Baker to get on the good side of their coaches.

As for now, the coaches ask the two running backs to use spring football to get into shape and be ready to compete come August.

“Right now we just got to put our heads down and keep working,” Butler said. “Jared and I are really good backs so we got to use this time to stay focused and prepared for what coaches need of us next season.”

Carrying the Load With Daniel Jenkins transferring to Washington State to be a starter, the Wildcats will have to find someone to replace him as Ka’Deem Carey’s backup. Here are the candidates:

Pitchers hitting again for softball Arizona pitchers Estela Piñon and Nancy Bowling making an impact offensively and defensively this season for the No. 16 Wildcats james kelley Arizona Daily Wildcat

After years of Arizona softball pitchers only playing defense, most of this season’s are batting and even taking up the designated player spot in the order.

Freshman pitcher/designated player Nancy Bowling (4-3) and junior pitcher/ designated player Estela Piñon (7-2), two of Arizona’s three-player pitching staff, are batting regularly for head coach Mike Candrea.

“My first thing coming here was I wanted to get a chance to hit and he [Candrea] said, ‘Of course you are,’” Piñon said. “The first time he gave me an opportunity, that was my chance to show him that I can hit as a pitcher, that hey, I’m not just here as a pitcher, but a batter too.”

Piñon has played on offense in 20 games and Bowling has played 17 for the No. 22 Wildcats (20-8). Piñon has been designated player nine times, Bowling eight.

“I love pitching and hitting,” Piñon said.

“If I have a bad inning when I’m pitching, I love hitting, so that I help myself out. I like to help out my team.”

Piñon and Bowling are the first pitchers to regularly bat since Taryne Mowatt graduated in 2007.

“We had quite a few. [Nancy] Evans hit, [Jennie] Finch hit, Taryne Mowatt hit a little bit,” Candrea said. “Yeah, it’s been a while, but not that long ago.”

Evans won national Player of the Year in 1998, Finch won in 2001 and 2002 and Mowatt won two ESPYs in 2007.

Candrea said playing on both sides of the ball helps pitchers.

“It’s tough for a pitcher to do their job and then sit and wait,” Candrea said. “It gives them a chance to be more active and involved in the game and pitchers are used to doing that all their life.”

Piñon has a .225 batting average, two home runs, eight RBI, a .400 slugging percentage and a .354 on-base percentage.

Bowling has a .222 batting average, four RBI, a .333 slugging percentage and a .300 on-base percentage.

The two are NCAA rookies; Piñon transferred to the UA from Yavapai College in the NJCAA ranks.

“They’re doing OK — we’re still not

JUNIOR PITCHER Estela Piñon prepares to release the ball in a win over Portland State in the Wildcat Invitational. This season, Piñon and fellow pitcher Nancy Bowling have seen much more time behind the plate.

quite where we need to be,” Candrea said. respectively. Piñon is fifth in home runs, “They’re young and they’re doing a great seventh in RBI and seventh in on-base job in [batting practice], but when it comes percentage.

Piñon said there is pride in being a to game time and the ball’s moving a little bit more, it’s controlling their energies pitcher/hitter.

“You don’t see a lot of pitchers hitting, more than anything. But that comes from experience. They just don’t have the especially here at the U of A,” Piñon said.

For the baseball team, Arizona pitchers database that they need at this point, but don’t bat, and their we’ll create that.” opponents rarely do. But Piñon said the NCAA pitchers are It’s tough for a pitcher to Candrea it isn’t uncommon very different and do their job and then sit for pitchers to bat in softball.

Piñon said pitching is have more “movement and wait. a “big advantage” when in the ball.” ­ it comes to knowing each “It’s completely — Mike Candrea, umpire’s strike zone when different, especially UA head coach she’s at the plate. last weekend because “When you’re pitching, we got to face [Oklahoma senior ace] Keilani [Ricketts],” you can see how the strike zone is,” Bowling Bowling said. “You’ll face good pitchers said. “That helps a lot when you’re hitting in travel ball, but then once you get to and you can also tell your team, give them college, you see how they adjust with feedback.”

Bowling said pitching helps her batting. better coaching and all of a sudden …

As a pitcher, Piñon has a 3.87 ERA in 63.1 they’re throwing way harder and they’re innings, .242 opponent batting average really good at keeping you off balance.”

Piñon and Bowling are ninth and and 65 strike outs. Bowling has a 3.35 ERA tenth on the team in batting average, in 39.2 innings, .227 opponent batting

average and 43 strike outs in the circle.

“It kind of allows you to see like, how it feels as a batter and what kind of throws you off. It allows you to think more like, ‘If I hitting, what would be a difficult pitch to handle at this moment?’” Bowling said.

When senior pitcher Kenzie Fowler decided to take a medical redshirt this year, Candrea said he was excited to see her bat as well as pitch healthy next year.

She has barely batted in college.

“What I’m looking for is to put our best lineup out there that will give us the best chance to win offensively, and if it’s a pitcher, it’s a pitcher and if it’s not, it’s not,” Candrea said.

THE MADNESS OF MARCH F

or college basketball fans, this is the best time of the year: March Madness, the mecca of college basketball.

The sixth-seeded Arizona Wildcats will take on 11th-seed Belmont today at 4:20 p.m.

Here are some thoughts and musings on that match-up and the NCAA tournament in general: THERE ARE SO many Belmont upset picks going around that I wonder if Arizona is the underdog at this point.

AM I THE ONLY ONE who thinks UCLA is way overrated at six? Jordan Adams is a huge loss for the team; it showed against Oregon in the Pac-12 championship. Even with him, UCLA was consistently inconsistent.

YOUR PRESIDENT participated in his annual Barack-etology with ESPN, and he showed no love for Arizona. Or anyone in the Pac-12, for that matter. Mr. Commander-in-Chief picked all five Pac-12 teams to lose in their first game.

SPORTS ILLUSTRATED ranked all 68 schools by the coolest person who went there. Arizona came in at No. 30 with Kristen Wiig, the former Saturday Night Live star who was an art major at the UA before dropping out for an acting career. “Bridesmaids” was hilarious, but I’m more Gronk-leaning.

I’LL BE IN UTAH for the first time.

I hear there are strict alcohol laws up there. So, what does that mean for the media’s hospitality suite? That’s an important NCAA tournament question if I’ve ever heard one. It’ll be in the 40s and rainy all week in Salt Lake, but my friends tell me I’m from New Jersey, so I

The good, the bad and the ugly: Arizona’s NCAA tournament history zack rosenblatt Arizona Daily Wildcat

The Good: 1997 squad

“Simon says, ‘Championship.’”

Most Tucsonans or longtime Wildcats fans know that phrase.

CBS’ Billy Packer uttered it, referencing former UA star Miles Simon, as the Wildcats cut down the nets in their first-ever basketball championship.

It was a long time coming. The Lute Olson-led Wildcats often went into the NCAA Tournament as a high seed, only to exit early.

This time, Arizona was a four seed and defeated three No. 1’s (Kentucky, Kansas and UNC) on its way to the title.

There have been other good moments in Arizona’s history — Final Fours in 1988 and 1994, the National Championship loss to Duke in 2001 — but this is the best of them all, the shining moment in Arizona basketball history.

The bad: 1998 follow-up

For how perfect the 1997 championship was, the Wildcats’ defense the following year was equally bad.

The Wildcats entered the tournament as a No. 1 seed, widely considered favorites to repeat.

But then they ran into head coach Rick Majerus and the Utah Utes in the regional final.

The Utes confounded the vaunted Wildcats trio

The Wildcats were never the same, and didn’t make it past the second round again The game was almost over, and Arizona was all until the Sean Miller-led 2011 Wildcats went to but assured its fifth Final Four berth. The Wildcats, the Elite Eight. a three seed, had a 75-60 lead with four minutes
