ASUA court weighs appeals By Luke Money ARIZONA DAILY WILDCAT

The ASUA Supreme Court heard the official appeals of James Allen and Daniel Hernandez, who were both disqualified from the student body presidential race on March 9. The cases pitted Allen and Hernandez against Michael Colletti, in his capacity as elections commissioner for the Associated Students of the University of Arizona. Hernandez chose not to exercise his right to counsel, electing to represent himself, but Gary Ford Spector, an attorney who has an office on Stone Avenue, represented Allen. Andrew Stanley, a UA law student, represented Colletti. Colletti charged Hernandez with a total of 11 violation checks for five

separate election violations, including allegations that he and members of his slate, “Team Red,” sent unsolicited text messages to random phone numbers and that a member of his campaign staff violated the ASUA Elections Code by wearing a campaign T-shirt in the ASUA offices. Other violation charges said slate members were handing out fliers in the Manuel T. Pacheco Integrated Learning Center, that slate candidates were campaigning within 75 feet of a polling station in violation of the Elections Code, and that Hernandez himself wore a “Team Red” T-shirt as the “Learn Without Concern” gun forum, which violates the code provision against campaigning at ASUAsponsored events. At least one of those violations was filed by Bryan Ponton, a jour-

nalism junior and executive vice president-elect, and another was filed by Hector Araujo, a presidential candidate eliminated in the primary elections who openly supported James Allen, wearing a shirt supporting him and his slate to the election results reveal event on March 9. The names of the people filing violation complaints were redacted in the documents obtained by the Arizona Daily Wildcat via a public records request. Hernandez said Colletti “overstepped his bounds” as elections commissioner in regards to the first violation because he did not present Hernandez or his slate members with information to determine the veracity of the violation, namely who filed the complaint and the number from which the text mes-

sages were sent. “The information that was presented to me as a candidate was not enough to show any violation of the code,” Hernandez said. Hernandez also said he should not be responsible for the conduct of all the people he and his slate mates gave T-shirts to, since they specifically told them the rules regarding where they could wear the shirts. Stanley, Colletti’s counsel, rebutted that point and said that during the course of the interview with the person in question, who was unaffiliated with Hernandez’s campaign, she said she was unaware that wearing the shirt in the ASUA offices was prohibited.

Annual event displays research achievements By Jazmine Woodberry ARIZONA DAILY WILDCAT Optical sciences graduate student Jared Moore created an imager that could revolutionize the way CT scans are conducted. Arizona Cancer Center member Evan Unger sat on the boards of major companies while still conducting research on drugs brought to prostate tumors via an oxygen delivery system. The UA’s eighth annual Innovation Day highlights the research achievements of students, staff and faculty such as Unger and Moore who stood above the rest to become Innovators of the Year. “It’s a great honor and it’s been a great environment to work on the project,” Moore said. Moore came to the UA for its nationally recognized optical sciences program. Once he earns his doctorate in May, he will go to a company in Washington, D.C., to develop similar technology. The day began with Leading Edge researchers demonstrating an evolution in technology and innovation through their work. The Innovation Day showcase then highlighted student entrepreneurial efforts utilizing research within the McGuire Entrepreneurship Program and Arizona Center for Innovation. “This is a big deal. This is the only Tucson-wide celebration of innovation,” said Leslie Tolbert, vice president of research. “The point is to remind that this work is getting done right here in your own backyard.” Five out of the last eight faculty recipients have been from the Arizona Cancer Center, which utilizes interdisciplinary research work since it’s not staffed with its own faculty, said Sara Hammond, public affairs director of the center. Hammond said it’s indicative of an interdisciplinary and

The College of Science held a panel to discuss the crisis in Japan. Susan Beck, professor of geosciences at the UA, spoke on Tuesday about the earthquake and the tsunami that occurred and their effects on Japan.

UA experts educate public about Japan disaster By Bethany Barnes ARIZONA DAILY WILDCAT

The Fukushima Dai-ichi Nuclear Power Plant in Japan was built to withstand about 18 foot waves. When the earthquake hit on March 11 it set off a tsunami with waves as large as 24 to 25 feet. “It really exceeded anything they had prepared for,” said Susan Beck, a geosciences professor at the UA College of Science. She hosted a ScienceNow event titled A Public Forum on the Science Shaping Current Events: Disaster in Japan. “We’re living today with the results of polices that were made 40, 60 years ago” said panelist Paul Bonavia, chairman, president and CEO of UniSource Energy

Corporation, who spoke on energy policy at the forum. “Decisions that look good today are going to be tested by realities far into the future,” Bonavia said. In regard to the Palo Verde Nuclear Generating Station in Arizona, John Williams, panelist and professor of nuclear and energy engineering, does not think there is much to worry about. “It’s not something for anyone to get anxious about,” Williams said. “The accident that happened in Japan is not going to happen in Palo Verde because it is a different type of reactor and there aren’t any tsunamis.” Dr. Baldassarre Stea, professor and department head of radiation oncology, spoke on the health affects of radiation.

“It was strange for me to stand here tonight to discuss the harmful effects of radiation,” Baldassarre said. “We are constantly exposed to radiation in our daily activities.” While radiation was detected in Phoenix, Baldassarre and other panelists echoed that there in not a threat to those in the U.S., noting that what was detected in Phoenix was a billion times less than the threshold for causing health effects. There is a huge difference in exposure between the general public and radiation workers, according to Baldassarre. “The majority of Japan’s population is not at serious risk of developing problems,” Baldassarre said, the radiation workers are at the greatest risk. “They are the real heroes,” he said.

Boehner faces tough choice to avert government shutdown McClatchy Tribune WASHINGTON — With a government shutdown deadline just days away, House Speaker John Boehner faces a fateful choice over whether to abandon conservatives to reach a final deal on 2011 spending. If the Ohio Republican puts the priority on GOP unity, he could force a shutdown that many strategists believe could be costly to his party. But if he goes for a deal with Democrats, the decision has the potential to splinter the new Republican majority in the House. Either way, the choice could define his leadership. At issue is the size of budget reductions that the Republicans are willing to accept for the rest of the 2011 budget year. Last week, in negotiations with Democrats, Boehner appeared to be ready to propose roughly $26 billion in cuts for the remaining six months of the fiscal year on top of $10 billion already signed into law. A number close to that likely would be able to pass the Senate, where Democrats are still the majority, giving both parties a political victory at a time of heightened public concern over Washington spending. But such a compromise is inadequate for the conservative House GOP wing, many of them newcomers who want deeper cuts and have cemented support from veteran Republican lawmakers. Both sides say they want to avoid a shutdown, and Democrats are urging Boehner to get negotiations back on track. Late Monday evening, White House chief of staff William Daley called Boehner to try to bring the two sides back to the table. “Speaker Boehner is caught between a shutdown and a hard place,” Sen. Charles Schumer, D-N.Y., said Tuesday on the Senate floor. “It’s time to forget the tea party and take the deal.” To make matters even more complicated for Boehner, the influential Tea Party Patriots group plans to stage a rally at the Capitol on Thursday.

Government losing control of Yemen’s provinces McClatchy Tribune CAIRO — As Yemeni President Ali Abdullah Saleh struggles to retain power in the face of weeks-long protests, the central government’s control over restive provinces in the north and south has weakened substantially in recent days, both officials and insurgent leaders said Tuesday. For years, Yemen has battled a tribal insurgency in the north and Islamic militants in the south, and both groups have capitalized on the political turmoil of the last two months to make territorial gains. The most visible indication of the losses came Monday when a large explosion occurred at a munitions factory in Jaar, a city in the southern province of Abyan, killing more than 100 people. The incident followed a takeover of much of the province by militants loyal to al-Qaida in the Arabian Peninsula, witnesses said. The fighters had battled for days against military units throughout the province, which is rife with secessionist groups and tribes hostile to the government. Large stretches of other provinces fell into insurgent hands more quietly, and Saleh administration officials acknowledge that at least six of the country’s 18 provinces are now out of the government’s control. Desperation and anger have long fed the insurgencies in Yemen, the poorest country on the Arabian Peninsula. More than half the population is illiterate and more than 40

percent unemployed. In the northern province of Saada, leaders of a long-standing Houthi tribal rebellion took control last week after Saleh’s military commander in the region, Gen. Ali Mohsen Ahmar, joined the opposition movement. Faris Manaa, an arms smuggler and head of a prominent local family, declared himself to be governor. “The people’s revolution has taken total control of the situation in Saada,” Manaa said. “The army and local leaders have given their blessing to what has happened.” Houthi elements also were reported to have claimed large swaths of territory in the neighboring provinces of al-Jawf and Maareb, in what some analysts are attributing to the defections of army units stationed in the north. “This is directly related to the decision of Ali Mohsin to side with the protesters,” said Ali Dailami, an analyst with the Yemeni Organization for Human Rights. “The Houthis are immeasurably stronger than any forces loyal to the president in the north.” Saleh confirmed the fall of the six provinces in remarks in recent days, and he presented himself as the only alternative to chaos as he withdrew an offer to leave office early. “We want to stand by local authorities to ensure security through the formation of popular committees to defend their areas,” Saleh said. The comments led the opposition coalition to accuse the president of deliberately “ceding the institutions and military posts ... to armed groups.”

ASUA weighs in on grades, greek houses, tuition and fees By Bethany Barnes Arizona Daily Wildcat

ASUA will vote on a statement arguing against changing the current grading system at its meeting today. The statement, drafted by Sen. Dominick San Angelo and Sen. Mary Myles, opposing the idea of changing grading at the UA to include a plus and minus system. The Associated Students of the University of Arizona are also expected to vote on a resolution in favor of the Collegiate Housing and Infrastructure Act. The act would allow not-for-profit entities such as sororities and fraternities to make grants to places that provide student housing that are not owned by the university and are not-for-profit. “The Collegiate Housing and Infrastructure Act results in safer student housing by encouraging charitable contributions to collegiate housing for installation of life-saving equipment such as fire sprinklers, smoke detectors, and alarm systems,” according to the statement. ASUA will also present its 2011 tuition and fee stance.

Unger said an undergraduate degree in economics helps him straddle the business and research worlds. He noted that clinical trials represent an important part of his research. “I like the clinical translation. I like the thing to be used and be successful,” he said. Unger ’s 50 percent success rate is impressive, according to Bruce Wright, associate vice president for university research parks. He said the award winners weren’t in a beauty contest but rather the “enormously complex process” of researching and then commercializing that process.

PONTONS continued from page 1 Bryan: There is no “awkward tiptoeing” to get the other person to finish work. I can tell him point-blank to “get your stuff done,” and this will benefit ASUA. We have worked together in the past with our family, with projects in high school, and we know how one another works. We work well together and can use each other’s work styles to combat things. Let’s say you disagree with each other on a decision being made within ASUA, or even outside of ASUA. How do you deal with that? Brett: I respect Bryan’s feelings. If we are in our executive meeting and he brings something up that I’m not OK with, I’ll address it point-blank. I can also say something like “Bryan, that is a great idea, however we might want to go in another direction.” We debate all the time, and it’s for the better of ASUA. We can see every side to a situation by divulging into the “nitty gritties” and finding the best outcome. Our personal life does not belong in ASUA, and if there is a personal tiff, it would not come into play at the office. People expect us to always be fighting and have that brother rivalry, but I am excited to work with someone I know very personally. Bryan: We are both looking out for what’s best for the office, and I believe there will never be a point where I say, “Brett, you’re being unprofessional.” Our dynamic is a new frontier for the office and for us. We have worked together before but not on this large of a scale. Our personal lives will not affect our work ethic. In what ways did you help each other during your campaigns? Brett: I always had someone to go to if I was freaking out about getting enough votes or having a problem with the campaign team. He helped me with my elections my sophomore year for AVP, so he knew all the highs and lows of election season. He was an essential mental safety net to go to at the end of the day. Bryan: As his campaign manager last year, I often told him that he was acting dramatic. But being on the other side showed me what it was like to fight for your spot in the office. It was nice to have someone to go to, campaign with me and share similar experiences. We had brainstorm sessions together to improve our campaigns and to get people excited to vote. It would have been hard to do that alone. How are you responding to your slate’s campaign violations?

Brett Ponton, left, the ASUA administrative vice president and a marketing junior, stands with his twin brother Bryan Ponton, the ASUA executive vice president and a junior majoring in journalism and art history. The two say they plan to work together as professionals and brothers to make big changes in the Associated Students of the University of Arizona.

ASUA continued from page 1 science sophomore and ASUA senator-elect, testified that the woman was wearing a shirt that bore his name, not Hernandez’s, and that she was a personal friend of his. Lundstrom also testified that he and another slate candidate, psychology junior Monica Ruiz, were the ones allegedly leaving fliers on tables in the ILC, but that they had only left them in study rooms adjacent to the computer lab, not in the computer lab itself which was the basis of the violation. Lundstrom said that over the course of the campaign Team Red distributed more than 9,000 pieces of slate campaign material and that he thought it was “unreasonable” for Colletti to hold the slate responsible for every piece. Stanley said the code gives Colletti broad powers to interpret what constitutes a violation. “The commissioner is not a dictator and he’s not given dictator powers,” Stanley said. “But he is given powers to maintain a smooth running of the elec-

THE

Brett: I am excited that our appeals went through and that they worked in our favor. The slates were a “new ballgame” for everyone, including ASUA. The violations helped us understand what changes need to be made to have the best possible student government. Bryan: With slates, you go in as a team, and you take the downfalls for the team. Our slate was always there for each other, and there was never a point where I saw a slate member making any obvious violations. I feel that we played a fair election. As a journalism major, many people are asking me why ASUA isn’t being transparent, and I think we all should be. I am glad people were asking for those public records and finding out what the strikes against us were. Although I am happy that Brett and I “rose above the ashes,” and we now see that there are very clear problems not only with the elections code, but within ASUA in general. Going into the summer, we will have a lot of time to reflect on campaign season and start making large changes to the ASUA bylaws and the office itself.

What are your plans for after you graduate? Brett: My dream job would be to move to San Francisco and do public relations or marketing there, but as of now, I don’t have a concrete idea. Everyone expects me to go into government or law, but I don’t see my position in ASUA as a government position, but more of a service opportunity that makes a difference in a fun way. I would like to continue having service opportunities, so maybe I would work with a non-profit, but I’m not sure right now. Bryan: I am kind of in the same boat as Brett in that I am not totally sure what I want to do post-graduation. As a journalism major, my professors tell me that journalism is a “dying art,” but I don’t believe them. I am interested in magazine work, and I like feature writing where I don’t have to suck out all personality from my writing. Public relations is also an option. I would love to move to New York and get out of Arizona, but it all depends on where I get a job.

tion with the limited resources available to him.” Justice Brian Chase asked Stanley if he thought a campaign was responsible for what people elect to do with their materials, and Stanley replied that he did. “I understand Mr. Hernandez’s frustration, but we simply can’t have these kinds of violations,” Stanley said. Spector, Allen’s counsel, took a sweeping approach to rebuking Allen’s violations, arguing that the lack of clear and convincing evidence of them was tantamount to constructive fraud on Colletti’s part. Spector presented several sworn affidavits containing testimony rebutting the accusations against Allen. Allen and his slate are accused of leaving campaign materials in the U-Mart, going door to door in Coronado Residence Hall soliciting votes and pressuring the members of Alpha Delta Pi sorority to vote for them. Colletti also alleges that a member of the slate’s campaign staff went to a club meeting with a list of candidates to vote for and an open laptop and gave coercive suggestions to them. Colletti confirmed that Hernandez filed at least one of the violations levied

against Allen. Spector vehemently denied that Allen had been in Coronado on the date of the alleged violation, March 8. Justice Emily Ward mentioned that Coronado has security cameras and asked Spector if evidence of that nature would be convincing. Spector responded that if Colletti had that sort of evidence he would have presented it to the court. Colletti said that regardless of the number of checks the court chose to levy against Allen after the appeal, Allen’s actions still justified disqualification in his mind. Spector said this was evidence that Colletti “saw the writing on the wall” and was attempting to change his argument since he knew the court would overturn checks against Allen. The court did not render a verdict in either case. Under the rules of the court, the appellants must be made aware of the court’s decision within 24 hours. When asked after the hearing how he approached complaints made by one candidate against another, Colletti said he treated those like any other complaint he receives and looks at each independently.

Q: Dear Advisor: I noticed a new symbol in the Schedule of Classes. I know that a green dot means there is an opening in the course and a blue square means the course is full. What does the red star indicate? Seeing Stars A: Dear Seeing Stars: You are correct. There is a new feature in the Schedule of Classes which indicates a course has openings for students who meet specific requirements for the course. By selecting the course you can view more details to determine what requirements are needed for enrollment. These requirement notations can be found under Enrollment Requirements and/or Class Notes. For example, some upper-division courses are restricted to students who are enrolled in the major or minor. Math classes require a minimum placement score in order to register for certain courses. Other courses are restricted to students enrolled in the Honors College. These are examples of some courses which, if restricted for enrollment, will present a red star. Since you asked about enrolling in classes, it might be good to remind you about the change in the course numbering system for the Tier I classes. Again, the requirements have not changed for general education, only the course numbers for Tier I. A table listing the new Tier I numbering system is available on the front page of the Advising Resource Center (ARC) website (www.advising.arizona.edu). Speaking of the ARC website, two new features have been added to the front page. Select “Course Announcements” to learn about new courses that have been recently added to the Schedule of Classes, or newly approved courses which are available for summer and fall 2011. A second new feature is called “Things to Know” which is place you will find out about major information sessions, unique career and/or scholarship opportunities, and other options available to students. Please check out the ARC website, and give us your feedback. Best wishes as you complete your registration plans for summer and/or fall terms.

Mock border wall misses point Tanner Weigel Arizona Daily Wildcat

an you imagine a country that would dare put up a wall to stem the tide of illegal immigration through its southern border? Well, there is such a country, and it’s criticizing the United States for doing the exact same thing. What, you were thinking the U.S. from the beginning? The wall is actually between Mexico and Guatemala. According to Danilo Valladares of the Inter Press Service News Agency, “in order to stop boats carrying contraband, the southern Mexican state of Chiapas is building a wall along the border river Suchiate, similar to the one the United States is building along its southern border with Mexico.” Valladares also quoted a Mexican official who said that “(the wall) could also prevent the free passage of illegal immigrants.” The remainder of the article is critical of the barrier’s construction, but it highlights the hypocrisy of the Mexican government in criticizing the U.S. and its endeavors to protect its border. It is in knowing this that I derive my initial concern with the mock border wall on the UA Mall. What I see is an emotional ploy that does not realistically approach the broken immigration system. The mock wall calls for no más muertes/no more deaths. This is certainly a noble desire, and there is no doubt that reforms are badly needed within this country’s immigration system. But to call for open borders as a means to solve the problem is completely baffling. This notion completely disregards the concept of national sovereignty and would lead to nothing more than extreme chaos. To those who believe in such a plan, does the U.S. have any right to maintain the integrity of its borders? This does not in any way seek to diminish the plight of the immigrant. Between drug smugglers, harsh terrain and weather, and exploitative human traffickers, the path for an undocumented individual is extremely dangerous. Add this to the prospect of simply being caught and sent back south and you have a rather disheartening journey to a better life. Again, those who seek to illuminate the hardships that the immigrant faces, and want to open a dialogue on the need to respect all humanity, should be applauded. Those who live in this blessed country could definitely benefit from looking at the difficulty that people in many other nations have in simply subsisting. But when I see a sign on the mock wall comparing the United States’ efforts with that of the Berlin Wall, the mock wall loses all credibility. This all goes back to one simple premise: the U.S. has every right to keep illegal immigrants from entering this country and to establish the proper means by which those individuals can enter this country. This is where the debate should center. When there are millions of immigrants living here illegally, the initial priority must be that of enforcement of the law. This does not mean hunting down all those who are living here illegally, as that is simply unrealistic logistically. But it does mean that there must be a way to stop the bleeding, so to speak. If manpower alone cannot suffice, then by all means construct a border fence so as to physically prevent illegal passage into this nation. For me, this whole debate always returns to the idea of the purpose of law. This country was founded on laws, and will only survive if laws are upheld and respected. To decry those who want to enforce the law as somehow insensitive to the difficulties of immigrants is completely counterproductive. Don’t mistake a border wall with the sealing of the border. It is simply another tool to protect the integrity of this nation’s boundaries. But do realize that open borders will never be accepted in this country, and for good reason — it would constitute a giant slap in the face to all those who followed the rules to come here. I do not purport to know all the solutions to the immigration problem. But as far as I can tell, those who constructed the mock border wall are far from reaching a realistic solution themselves.

GUEST COLUMN

Mock wall’s message contradictory to values Asher Susser

Guest Columnist

fter reading about the wall on the Mall in the Daily Wildcat, as a visiting professor from Israel, I felt I could not let the issue go by without at least two comments. — Universal values. This wall on the Mall was erected under the slogan of “No Más Muertes/No More Deaths” and includes a condemnation of Israel’s security barrier. Like those of Israel’s critics who refer to Israel’s security barrier as an “Apartheid Wall” as if it were a racist creation, the wall on the Mall also totally ignores the fact that Israel’s barrier was actually erected under the same slogan as the protest, that is, “No More Deaths” of Israelis by suicide bombers. It was built after the spate of Palestinian suicide bombings in Israel had killed hundreds of Israelis. Since the erection of the barrier, Israeli deaths to the bombers have declined from hundreds a year to less than 10. That may not be of any concern to the organizers of the “mock border wall”

and other critics of Israel, but it should be. Referring to the barrier outside of this context of conflict ignores Israeli losses as if Israeli lives were no more than human dust. Such dehumanization is in total contradiction to the humanist values the organizers of this protest claim to support. — Singling out. Why is Israel singled out of all the countries in the world outside of the U.S. that have built such barriers? Just to mention a few: Spain built a fence, with European Union (EU) funding, to separate its enclaves of Ceuta and Melilla from Morocco, as a barrier against illegal immigration into the EU. In Cyprus, the U.N. sponsored a security fence reinforcing the island’s de facto partition between Greeks and Turks. In Northern Ireland the British built barriers to separate Catholic and Protestant neighborhoods in Belfast. India constructed a barrier in Kashmir to halt infiltrations supported by Pakistan. Saudi Arabia built an anti-infiltration barrier along its border zone with Yemen. According to the organizers of the “mock border wall,” the U.S. and Israeli areas are the only focus of the protest

healthy, weird or creepy. As humans, we have psychological needs that sometimes are not met through our own lives, hence we become attached to fictional characters. It is kind of like a more mature version of the one stuffed animal we could not go a night without back in the day. If you find yourself still cuddled up with the teddy bear you have had since you were 4 years old, you may have a problem and I would suggest finding a character to fill the emotional needs you desire. — Caroline Nachazel is a sophomore studying communication and journalism.

I feel for her.” — Kristin Parra, business management freshman

The Daily Wildcat editorial policy

“because they are funded by the United States.” (Daily Wildcat, March 22). This is a rather lame excuse for singling out Israel. While the United States is obviously funded entirely by the United States, Israel is not. Israel is a recipient of U.S. aid equal to just over 1 percent of Israel’s GDP. Of this aid, 75 percent is spent in the U.S., mainly on defense procurements, and only the remaining 25 percent, that is about 0.25 percent of the Israeli GDP, is actually spent in Israel. The U.S. has intimate relations with the UN and all of the barrierbuilding countries mentioned above. The U.S. provides financial assistance to the UN and to members of the European Union such as Spain and the UK (via the NATO alliance, for example) who have also constructed such barriers. Singling out and dehumanization are the hallmarks of prejudice and they have no place here.

Man warned for loitering on campus

A loitering non-UA affiliated male was warned for panhandling on March 28. A University of Arizona Police Department officer was on patrol in the Student Union Memorial Center around 7 p.m. when he noticed a man seated on an outside bench. When the man saw the officer he immediately got up and rapidly departed toward the opposite side of the union. He rounded a corner of the building and disappeared from view. The officer followed him and went around the corner, but could not see the man. The officer was able to find him again on the east side of the building talking with a Panda Express employee. When he saw the officer in the food court, the man quickly left again. The officer asked the employee what the man was doing, and he said that the man had asked him for a cigarette. Later, a student told the officer that she, too, had seen the man and he had asked her for change. The officer finally caught up with the man in Great Clips inside of the union and asked the man to identify himself. He presented a â&#x20AC;&#x153;Best Sellerâ&#x20AC;? identification card from Alliance Service Company, a magazine distribution company. He denied attempting to sell magazine subscriptions on campus and said that he was only at the union to get a haircut. The officer said that he knew that he was trying to get a cigarette from an employee and money from a student. The man said that he did try to bum a cigarette from someone but quickly changed his story to asking to buy the cigarette from him. When the man consented to a search of his person, the officer found four receipts, four $20 bills and a counterfeit $20 bill in a hidden pocket. The officer warned the man for panhandling on campus and told him that if he was caught selling subscriptions on campus he could be arrested for loitering or trespassing. The counterfeit bill was placed into UAPD evidence.

Like 20 shots later...

An intoxicated man was arrested for minor in possession on March 27. Tucson Fire Department responded to the Kaibab-Huachuca Residence Hall after medical assistance was requested for an unconscious male in a bathroom. When the UAPD officer arrived, the student was passed out on the floor of the bathroom, half-naked with his pants down. The officer was able to wake him but the student was unable to answer simple questions (such as his name or where he lives). He continued to answer every question with the phrase, â&#x20AC;&#x153;DBG.â&#x20AC;? The meaning of the letters was never determined. He showed signs of severe intoxication and had a very pale complexion. TFD transported the student to the University Medical Center. The next evening the officer met with the student at his residence hall. He said that he had been drinking alcohol at an unknown party off-campus and that he thought he consumed thirteen shots of vodka, but a friend informed him that it was more â&#x20AC;&#x153;like twenty shots.â&#x20AC;? The officer cited and released him for minor in possession and forwarded a code of conduct referral to the Dean of Students Office.

Mock border targeted

Theft and other suspicious activity occurred around the mock border on the UA Mall on the night of March 26. A UAPD officer responded to the UA mall during the afternoon of March 27 in regards to a report of suspicious activity. The reporting party, a student coordinator for the mock border wall on the UA Mall, said that unknown subjects had removed artwork, banners and signs from the fence and cut them up. The various items on the wall were made and attached to the wall by unknown contributors. The student said that she felt the Department of Latin American Studies, Chicano-Hispanic Studies Department and Coalicion de Derechos Humanos group were targeted. In the opinion of the officer, some of the items on the ground appeared to have simply fallen off while others appeared as if they were pulled off. The student coordinator also wanted documented that an unknown subject put a hand constructed human figure on the wall. The effigy had black boots, green pants, tan shirt and a square cardboard head. Around the neck there was a sign that stated, â&#x20AC;&#x153;I did not cross the border, the border crossed me.â&#x20AC;? The effigy was attached to the fence with barbed wire and the hands of the figure had nails pinned through its palms. No damage was done to the fence and the coordinator removed the figure. Police Beat is compiled from official University of Arizona Police Department reports. A complete list of UAPD activity can be found at www.uapd.arizona.edu.

Tucson hosts the biggest, and longest, Arizona International Film Festival ever. By Steven Kwan ARIZONA DAILY WILDCAT

y the time Giulio Scalinger moved to Tucson in 1985, he had already worked on film festivals for many years. “The last thing I wanted to do was another festival,” said Scalinger, who is now the director of the Arizona International Film Festival. “And here I am, 20 years later, not going according to what I had promised myself.” The festival began on Oct. 31, 1990, as a four-day event at the newly restored Temple of Music and Arts. It was the only film festival in Arizona at the time. “As early as ’94, ’95, we actually took the festival to different locations like Sedona, Tempe, Scottsdale and Patagonia,” Scalinger said. In keeping with its history, the festival will tour to Arivaca, Patagonia and SaddleBrooke, as well as Alamos in Mexico, for screenings, according to Mia Schnaible, director of marketing for the festival. To celebrate its 20th anniversary, organizers will screen 20 days of films from past festivals in addition to this year’s program, starting this Friday and ending April 20. Presenting independent films for 20 years is no easy feat, especially in light of the recent economic recession. “We have been very true to our mission. … Our organization is for independent films,” said Scalinger about the festival’s longevity. “We are here for filmmakers. We try and give them an audience.” Part of the festival’s programming includes Film In The Schools, at which visiting filmmakers give presentations to students at local high schools and the Art Institute of Tucson, said Suzanne Borth, director of education and outreach for the festival. “It’s hard when you have a film

A top tinkerer, Stanley has created the perfect stable family, and all it requires to thrive is just a little maintenance to make sure

‘Genitalio’

Joel Sacramento and Scott Feigen, USA, 17 mins. “Genitalio” is the story of a blowup doll who longs to be a real boy. Yes, it’s a modernized “Pinocchio,” complete with a drunk, sad-sack father, a singing cartoon cricket and a bad influence — an S&M-style blow-up doll with a thick Jersey accent — who leads poor Genitalio astray. Unfortunately, no, it’s not as awesome as it sounds. This short is one of those

the animated shorts in particular are amazing,” he said. “If you’ve never been to a festival and you want to see one thing, the shorts are always good to see.” Croft also recommends “Absentia,” a feature film by Mike Flanagan. “It’s like ‘Paranormal Activity’ on acid,” Croft said. The festival kicks off at 8 p.m. this Friday at the Fox Tucson Theatre with “Journey From Zanskar” by Oscar and Emmy-nominated producer and director Frederick Marx (“Hoop Dreams,” “Boys to Men?”), who is scheduled to appear at the screening. The documentary chronicles the efforts of two monks tasked by the Dalai Lama to preserve the traditional Tibetan Buddhist culture at Zanskar.

festival and you have kids — to figure out which ones you should take your kids to, because they (the films) haven’t been rated,” Borth said. So the festival will have family-friendly films at Crossroads Festival Cinemas 6, near East Grant Road and North Swan Road, on April 9. Charles Croft, a political science senior and festival volunteer since his freshman year, said he plans to enter the film industry after graduation. “This is a good chance to see films you wouldn’t see in theaters,” said Croft about the festival. “I was never really big on independent film until I went to the film festival, and I was just amazed at the quality of films that were in it.” For anyone who hasn’t been to the festival before or seen an “independent” film, Croft recommends seeing the shorts. “A lot of the shorts we have are from Sundance (Film Festival), and

mum doesn’t set her hair on fire with the iron, or dad’s eyeballs don’t pop out. But Stanley’s routine world is rocked when he spies young, curvaceous Bluebell gliding through the field out his window, unhampered by walls. Though the actors and sets are real, stop-motion animation is used to beautiful effect to emphasize both the mechanical monotony of Stanley’s home life and the unpredictable fluidity of the world beyond. In a dream, Stanley sees Bluebell in a sun-

kissed forest clearing, drifts silently through a carpet of leaves as if they were ice and she an Olympic skater. She pushes off of trees, performs effortless 360 degree spins and falls to the floor with outstretched legs without ever losing momentum. It is fitting that Stanley dreams this moment. It, like this film, is unbelievably enchanting. Stanley Pickle is playing Saturday, 10 p.m. at The Screening Room. — Brandon Specktor

things that sounds like a great idea when you posit it, but in reality, turns out sort of depressing and disturbing, and not in a good way. The short is poorly acted to the point of being irritating, and loses all that makes its source material charming. Still, it might be worth seeing for the low-budget cinematic magic of a walking, talking blow-up doll. “Genitalio” is screening April 2 at 6 p.m. at The Screening Room. — Heather Price-Wright

‘Peep Culture’

Sally Blake, Canada, 59 min. Writer and social commentator Hal Niedzviecki agreed to participate in a documentary that examines the effects the Internet, technology and social media have had on our attitudes toward privacy and on our social lives. It wasn’t enough for Niedzviecki to just provide intelligent commentary, but he also had to “livecast” himself to the world in order to understand why anyone — and seemingly everyone —

Mike Flanagan, USA, 2010, 91 min. “Absentia” is a dark, psychological thriller that will leave you questioning what really happened all night. True to classic horror guidelines, the opening score alone is shiverinducing. “Absentia” is the story of Tricia, who finally declares her husband “dead in absentia” after he has been missing for seven years, and her sister Callie, a drug addict who comes to help her sis move on. It took me three hours to watch this 90-minute movie. I would want to subject his or her so-called life to the constant gaze of a camera. That’s not the most outrageous — and perhaps banal — part of “Peep Culture.” The documentary takes off when Niedzviecki interviews people who want to become a “brand,” if they haven’t already done so. He finds that this desire for fame or notoriety without high regard for personal privacy is not limited to those who grew up with the Internet. Niedzviecki even discovers a boot camp for reality television hopefuls

watched 10 minutes, freaked out, paused the movie, ran around my empty house with a baseball bat checking for monsters, resumed the movie and repeated that about five times. “Absentia” succeeds in terrifying, but also shows impressive direction and cinematography. Its only fault lies in the revelation of the monsters, which are a bit cliché. However, the psychological demons are the ones that will stay with you when you leave the theater. “Absentia” is screening Friday, April 8, 10 p.m. at Crossroads Festival. — Rebecca Rillos — located near Los Angeles, of course — where participants are taught how to find “the character that they already are” and how to make it work for TV. At one point in “Peep Culture,” Niedzviecki asks, “How am I going to get you to buy more of me?” That is either one of the scariest, or most exciting, questions any of us will hear in our lifetime. Showing at The Screening Room, , on April 13 at 8 p.m. with “Grandpa’s Wet Dream.” — Steven Kwan

As an artist, Angelica Rahe PozoDesPortes is known by her middle name, pronounced “Ray.” She graduated from the UA last year, and has since released her first fully produced album, “Out of the Box.” Her work is an original and compelling blend of many styles and cultures, from South American influences to soul, jazz and Flamenco. She sings and writes her own music, and plays Spanishstyle nylon string guitar. Rahe received her B.A. in language translation, with a focus in Spanish and Portuguese. “I love language, which has really fed into my art,” Rahe said. Although she did not study music, Rahe took a class called “Careers in Music.” There, she met lecturer Marty Khan and his wife Helene Cann, who have a cultural organization called “Outward Visions.” The company now manages Rahe and helped her produce her album. On Friday, Rahe will perform with her group of musicians at Rhythm & Roots at Plaza Palomino. In addition to Rahe’s vocals, the show will feature tenor, alto and baritone saxophones, bass clarinet, drumming, percussion, nylon string guitar and even a Spanish cajon. “I’m looking to establish myself as an international artist, and I want Tucson to be my home base,” Rahe said. At the show, she plans to play songs from the album, and to test the waters with new material.

Rahe DesPortes

Tell me about your music. What is your inspiration? What can you tell us that will help us get to know you as an artist? Basically, I’ve spent my whole life traveling the world. My father is originally from Spain, I spent a lot of time as a kid in southern Spain. I lived in Japan, and I lived in numerous places in the United States. And along the way I just picked up a lot of languages and cultures. So my music is a mixture of all kinds of influences from around the world. … This album is basically an example of all of that. It has Spanish, Portuguese and English songs — songs in all three languages, and it features my new band. … There are saxophones, bass clarinets, marimbas, a great drummer and percussion, and all kinds of instrumentation that features each place and each kind of mood. I like to use that as inspiration in my composition. It’s a really exciting project that we’re all really proud of. How does it feel, as an artist, to have your first real release? What’s that been like for you? It’s an incredible feeling. I’ve wanted to make an album for a long time, and (this album) is really special because it’s exactly what I saw when I was writing those songs … All the musicians gave a lot of creative input, and I really opened (my music) to let them interpret it from their standpoints.

very organic, collective process. All of them … felt the music. They lived it and they breathed it, and that’s what comes across. We recorded the album very old-school. We all played together, live in the studio, which is what they used to do before they had track-by-track recording. So that’s another element, that live, vibrant feel that the music has, and we transferred that into the record. Is there anything you hope to say with the music that you make? How do you use your music to connect with people? I think music is the universal language. It’s something that crosses all barriers. Having had the childhood that I did, a lot of times I would come to a place, and I wouldn’t have any idea what the language was, or any idea how to speak it. I didn’t have any idea about the culture, really, or any of the things you could know about a new place. But music has always been my means of connecting with people and expressing myself, and I think it’s the most powerful way to do that. I just want to bring that to the rest of the world. I think that there’s a unity we can find through music and creating it together.

For me, the audience who listens is just as important as the people that are playing it. … And that’s what I love about playing music live and why I wanted to make the recording based on that too. I wanted it to be real. There’s nothing more pure and more beautiful to me.

PB&J diversify their flavor By Steven Kwan ARIZONA DAILY WILDCAT How can a pop-rock band avoid being written off as a onehit wonder? Try not to make that same song again. And Swedish band Peter Bjorn and John does just that with their new album, Gimme Some, to some success. Two of the best songs from the band’s 2006 breakout album Writer’s Block are the underrated “Let’s Call It Off” and the infectious “Young Folks.” Of course,

GIMME SOME Peter Bjorn and John StarTime International Released March 29

everyone only remembers “Young Folks,” aka “The Whistle Song”, because it showed up in seemingly every TV commercial, best-of lists and independent radio station’s playlist. These songs featured crisp

drums and bass that served as a sleek background to highlight the vocals. For Gimme Some, Peter Bjorn and John enlisted the aid of the producer Per Sunding to create a collection of songs that diverge from “Young Folks.” But that doesn’t mean Gimme Some is not as memorable. If anything, Peter Bjorn and John use vocal sounds and rhythm sections — their secret weapon — to banish any hope of hearing anything like a whistle in the chorus. “Dig a Little Deeper” opens with a drum breakdown and features “oh-ohs” and backup singing from the rest of the band. First single “Second Chance” utilizes cowbell and ghostly “ooohs.” “Tomorrow Has to Wait” kicks off the album with a booming militant beat. Amid the fun, catchy melodies, the lyrics cover relationship screw-ups, regret and bittersweet love. In “Breaker, Breaker” Peter Morén sings, “Before you break my heart / Before you start / I’m gonna to break your arm and concentration.” With “Lies,” he laments, “And I always did believe that you and me would

always be, but now I ruined all.” Morén sings his songs with passion, even straining his voice to hit the high notes. Gimme Some has its moments of brilliance, but there is no one song that brings those moments together to stick with you throughout the day. In filling out most of their songs with sound, Peter Bjorn and John abandon what made “Let’s Call It Off” and “Young Folks” work. As it is, Gimme Some serves as a solid foundation and a breather for Peter Bjorn and John.

‘Sucker Punch’ should knock itself out By Kathleen Roosa ARIZONA DAILY WILDCAT “Sucker Punch” seems to have the perfect equation for a blockbuster. A beautiful protagonist? It has five such ladies, complete with guns and miniskirts. Fighting sequences? You betcha. A decent director? Only the powerhouse that is Zack Snyder, the director of “300” and “Watchmen.” What else is missing? Oh yes, a plot. The movie starts strong, but the potential is ultimately lost amid the tangled storylines and shallow characters. “Sucker Punch” operates on three different levels, each plunging deeper into Baby Doll’s subconscious as she avoids the bitter realities of her increasingly crappy life. With such an unreliable protagonist/narrator, “Sucker Punch” forces the audience to choose which layer is the “real” one, or rather, the least boring one. Level #1 primarily takes place at Lennox House, your standard dark and dreary mental institution in the mid 1900s. Boohoo. Following Baby Doll’s mother’s death, her stepfather frames Baby Doll for the murder of her little sister. Baby Doll (Emily

Browning) has five days to escape before a doctor comes to stick sharp metal into her frontal lobe. Level #2 is an alternate reality of Level #1, where the characters and places of the institute are transformed into that of a brothel. It’s really an excuse for five hot actresses to walk around in skimpy outfits and have catty power struggles. This is the stratum where the tiny bit of plot really occurs and the char-

undoubtedly brilliant, but the search for the five elements to escape the fantasy world/brothel/ institution becomes a tedious routine, despite the fantastical situations in which the skirmishes take place. Confused? No wonder the producers chose “You will be unprepared” as the tagline. No kidding. There’s no denying the stunning cinPhoto courtesy of warnerbros.com ematography.

Vanessa Hudgens and Think Hugh Hefner’s version Jamie Chung as Blondie and Amber of Nancy Drew. The fighting is could be cardboard cutouts placed

in scene. Rising star Abbie Cornish plays Sweet Pea, who is sometimes the main character and is quite adept at moving her facial muscles. The best performance comes from Jena Malone, who plays Rocket with a spunky tenacity that’s entirely refreshing. There’s enough miniskirt twirling and sword spinning for the average male, but the plot ends there. Aside from some half-hearted titillation, “Sucker Punch” flounders in its quest for a solid performance or plot. Snyder said the film is in part a critique of geek culture’s objectification of women. Sorry, I didn’t see that amidst all the unnecessary cleavage and slow-motion strutting scenes. Like the sparkly eyeliner of the characters, the stunning technical effects can only cover up so much. By the time the credits roll, you’ve lost interest in which version of reality is the “real” one, much less who you’re supposed to care about. “Sucker Punch” proves sexiness in itself can be utterly boring.

‘Rango’: Good or bad, it sure ain’t ugly In “Rango,” the newest genrebending adventure from “Pirates of the Caribbean” director Gore Verbinski, a pampered pet lizard goes on a Wild West quest to bring water to the tortured town of Dirt. In the midst of an identity crisis, the lizard (Johnny Depp) names himself Rango, and adopts a new-sheriff-intown persona. But does the wacky Western hit its target, or is it a muddled, heartless excuse for animated critters with guns? There’s some disputin’ in these parts.

 THE GOOD:

Film and lit fans know they’re in for a trip by the opening scene. Aquarium bound, Rango riffs on a hero’s dependency on conflict. He is then ejected onto a highway in the Mojave. Irony: check. Amid his fall, he lands on the windshield of a convertible piloted by a long cigarette-filter in shades who is obviously Depp’s Hunter S. Thompson

from “Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas.” Pop culture references: check. A few seconds later, the rent carcass of an unlucky armadillo explains to Rango that crossing the highway “is a metaphor” and he shouldn’t worry about it — yet. Literary humor: check. That’s three notches for “Rango” in the first five minutes, and it doesn’t stop there. Enter the wacky “Tom-andJerry” chase sequences set to inappropriately upbeat mariachi scores (a la Verbinski’s other fractured Western, “The Mexican”). Enter the supporting cast of deranged cowpoke critters, like pygmy owl mariachis who narrate the story in Greek chorus fashion, a love interest named Beans who is prone to wide-eyed, catatonic paralysis, and Rattlesnake Jake, a gunslinging serpent whose tail has been surgically swapped with a Gatling gun (awesome). Enter the spectral

Spirit of The West, a familiar poncho-wearing badass voiced with true grit by “Deadwood” sheriff Timothy Olyphant (two shots of awesome). There are slips, like an underdeveloped protagonist. But Rango is a chameleon — his genetic destiny is to subsume the appearance of other characters. He is, thanks to evolution, a natural-born archetype. Sure, the character’s real name is never revealed. But neither is Clint Eastwood’s in the legacysetting “Dollars” trilogy. The bastard child of “Looney Tunes” and “The Wild Bunch,” “Rango” is a film that knows what it’s doing. What it’s doing is creating an energetic, aesthetically beautiful though admittedly stereotypical Western about an animated lizard. If that’s not your brand of whisky, find another bar. — Brandon Specktor

 THE BAD:

In the midst of a character identity crisis occurring safely in the confines of aquarium walls, self-named hero Rango decides his movie scriptin-progress lacks conflict. Cue the meta-fiction: suddenly the lizard is launched out of his habitat, coming to a sliding halt on the side of a desert highway. Though the meta-fiction is as purposeless as the movie’s central character, an identity crisis has never been more warranted: prior to his self-naming, Rango was never given an identity. One of the central problems with the movie is its underdevelopment; the characters are cardboard cut-outs of what they could have been with proper fleshing out. But fleshing out is impossible when there are 38 christened characters; 38 unidentifiable, grotesque, mammalian and reptilian puppets that traipse across the desert, their only function being

to keep the story trudging down its overly simple and solitary path toward an expected ending. But when the characters leave barely an imprint on your memory (let alone your soft-spot), what of the action? It’s as empty as Dirt’s water jug. Sure, Rango’s serendipitous hero persona can be appreciated for its attempt at something different. “Rango” comes complete with the voice of Ned Beatty, aka “Toy Story 3” baddie, Lotso, as a malevolent mayor, but the main character’s aimlessness bleeds into the plotline and muddles up the action, causing even the most purposeful hunt for the stolen agua reserve to seem muddied and unsure, lacking heart. The art is just as spectacular as the number of artists involved, and the voices lack no talent, but what happened to the story? It’s not so bad, but it’s not so good either. — Kim Kotel

arizona daily wildcat • wednesday, march 30, 2011 •

A night at the museum: No, really By Miranda Butler Arizona Daily Wildcat Sure, you might spend a lazy Saturday afternoon at an art museum. But why not enjoy the art after the moon has risen? On Thursday, the University of Arizona Museum of Art is opening its doors to nighttime visitors from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m. The event, UAMA After Dark, is an open invitation to students and the community, according to Emma Kleiner, the curatorial intern for the museum. “The event is designed to be a fun night where people can explore the artwork and the museum in a different way than if they just came in by

themselves,” Kleiner said. Kleiner explained that UAMA After Dark is a way to make artwork interactive. There will be a scavenger hunt, which incorporates clues into the written panels by the art. Museum staff members also created puzzles out of pictures from the museum’s permanent collection. Gabriel Navia, a UA graduate student in classical guitar, will be playing live music at “The Altarpiece from Ciudad Rodrigo” exhibit. “It’ll be great,” Kleiner said. “It really complements the atmosphere.” The event will also showcase the expertise of UA staff members. “We definitely tried to pull people from different parts of campus to make the event very comprehensive,” Kleiner added. Lauren Rabb, the curator of the museum, will lead a special tour of the museum’s exhibit, “The Aesthetic

Annie Marum/Arizona Daily Wildcat

Code,” and UA professor Albrecht Classen will lead a tour of “The Altarpiece from Ciudad Rodrigo.” If you’ve never been to the UAMA

before, a night at the museum might be a perfect way to spice up your artistic experience. If you have, prepare for a new way to interact with art.

Tanzbödeli: Kicking cancer off the dance floor By Jazmine Woodberry Arizona Daily Wildcat Sen. Taylor Bilby was in the room when her mother heard the words: “You have cancer.” Last July, Bilby decided to create a festival named after an inspiring — and challenging — hike she took in Gimmelwald, Switzerland during her senior trip the summer after high school. The festival: Tanzbödeli, a Swiss word that means “dance floor”. The purpose: to use local art to raise funds for an important cause. “I’d rather not put on Tanzbödeli,” said Bilby, a

business economics sophomore and ASUA senator. “But the moment you hear those words, ‘You have cancer,’ everything changes … I was with my mom when she heard it, and it was just so incredibly difficult and to dream a world where you don’t have to go through that or where … you can take a pill and it’s gone. That’s what it’s all for.” April 1 will mark the culmination of nine months of work (hampered by a few roadblocks) to create the UA’s first arts and culture festival featuring student artwork and wholly benefiting breast cancer. So what will Tanzbödeli look

like? A “chill atmosphere” in something almost like a maze, according to Bilby. A $5 ticket gets you a seat inside a world of student art. “It’s real. It’s not edited. The festival is going to speak U of A. This is our language,” Bilby said. “Sports get a lot of headlines, but the arts are really important, too.” Twenty to 30 different student artists submitted to the festival, from amateur photography from Bilby’s friends to pieces of art that will be sold as fundraising projects. The artwork will be mounted in a sprawling structure that spells out “hope” from above.

The Charles Darwin Experience and CatCall will both be performing at the event as well as other UA students. Most artwork at the event will be for sale. “I had all these big ideas and people have really stepped up to the plate,” Bilby said. “I’ve gotten so much help to figure out how to put an event like this on.” Many members in ASUA, including ASUA President Emily Fritze, Special Events Coordinator Kaitlin Simpson and two of Bilby’s senatorial colleagues, Mary Myles and Deanna Mariner, helped put on the event. Other help came

from places like the University Filmmakers Organization, who helped Bilby film messages of hope to cancer survivors, and community members who donated time, materials and money to make the event possible. Bilby hopes to bring in $5,000 for the event to benefit The Breast Cancer Research Foundation. Ninety percent of proceeds given to the center go straight to funding research, which influenced Bilby’s decision. She said she hopes the festival continues to grow in future years. “It’s such a good cause,” she said.

WORTH NOTING

Please recycle your copy of the Arizona Daily Wildcat.

Jordan Benes UA cheerleader How do you feel about the Elite Eight loss, considering you were on the court? I was only at the Sweet 16 but it was upsetting to see the loss happen on Saturday, considering I felt like we had a good shot at the national championship this year. Are you pissed at the Wildcats? No. Just that fact of us making the Elite 8, coming from a previous year without even making the tournament, shows that the basketball team is on a good track, and I look forward to watching them take the championship next year. How do you feel about confidence vs. cockiness? Where do you draw the line? I think that if you’re good enough at what you do then be proud, and if cockiness is how you show it, so be it. What is sexier, red or black? Black. What is something you do not want to see on the ladies this summer? I don’t want to see those Egyptian/ gladiator type sandals that girls wear all the time. Who is your favorite Disney princess? Does Ariel from “The Little Mermaid” count? I choose her.

Missing cobra hits the Big Apple; thousands following on Twitter

It’s no wonder the escaped Egyptian cobra hasn’t been found at the Bronx Zoo: She’s having too good of a time taking on Manhattan. In reality, the zoo says it may be weeks before the pencil-thin, 20-inch venomous asp comes out of hiding. She’s believed to be confined to the zoo’s closed World of Reptiles building. But while the hunt for the cobra continues at the zoo, a witty Twitter writer has imagined her young life on the

town. Under the handle BronxZoosCobra, the “snake” began tweeting on Monday, starting off with some thanks to the animals from the animated movie “Madagascar” for providing inspiration for her trip around the Big Apple. “Holding very still in the snake exhibit at the Museum of Natural History.

Wildcats top New Mexico 12-3 By Alex Williams Arizona Daily Wildcat

After looking at the 12-3 final score of Tuesday’s baseball game against the University of New Mexico, it would be hard to believe that Arizona trailed as late as the fifth inning. But that frame proved to be a turning point in the game. No. 18 Arizona (18-7, 1-2 Pacific 10 Conference) plated 10 runs — nine with two outs — in an inning that featured nine hits, just one error and saw Alex Mejia steal home. “We just got some big hits,” said head coach Andy Lopez. “They helped us a little with walks and things, but we kept it going with big hits and just got the momentum going. Once momentum gets going on your side, it’s hard to stop. It was nice for us, but tough for (New Mexico).”

The inning would have ended with only one Arizona run crossing the plate if not for right fielder Steve Selsky beating out a potential double-play ball with runners on first and third. After Selsky’s hustle play, the game went straight downhill for the Lobos (9-16, 4-2 Mountain West Conference). Bryce Bandilla was the benefactor of Arizona’s 10-run fifth, its highest run total in an inning since scoring 10 in 2007 against Stanford in Palo Alto, Calif., getting the win after 1.2 innings of work, striking out three and not allowing a hit. “It’s always good to get work in, I’m glad I pitched tonight,” Bandilla said. “I’ve been walking too many people, but I felt a lot better. I had one walk tonight, but I felt more comfortable than I have in the past.” Waiting on the bench during Arizona’s offensive explosion could

Bryce Ortega slides head first into second base in Arizona’s 12-3 victory over New Mexico on Tuesday night at Frank Sancet Stadium.

have posed a problem for Bandilla, but he was able to pitch a perfect inning after the wait. “It was (tough), but I went and warmed up in the ‘pen because it was such a long inning,” Bandilla said. “It was nice having that lead going in to pitch again. It’s a lot

Arizona offense strives to improve on 2010 finish By Nicole Dimtsios Arizona Daily Wildcat When the final gun sounded after Arizona’s loss to Oklahoma State in the Valero Alamo Bowl, it also signified the end to the career of almost every single member of the Wildcats’ offensive line. Players like center Colin Baxter, offensive tackles Adam Grant and Phillip Garcia, offensive guards Conan Amituanai and Jovon Hayes moved on after the season ended. Due to Baxter’s season-ending knee surgery, Kyle Quinn, who is now practicing with the first squad under center and will be a junior come September, replaced Baxter. “Kyle (Quinn) is an outstanding player, played well in the bowl game,” said head coach Mike Stoops. “He’s the leader of that group, and he’s the guy that has the most experience of all of the guys. That’s kind of scary — one game.” Although the rest of the starting line will have to develop chemistry, Stoops said there are other aspects of the offense that could make up for the youth on the line. “We have our limitations in some areas,” Stoops said, “and to compensate for that, it’s great to have a bunch of skilled guys that we feel like we can space the field, get the ball to and let those guys make plays.” One of those “skilled guys” is Texas transfer Dan Buckner, whose reputation on the field precedes him despite the fact he has yet to play a game for the Wildcats. Buckner, with a 6-foot-4 frame, is another large target for Nick Foles on the outside that describes himself as an “all around player.” Lining up opposite established Wildcats receiver Juron Criner, Arizona will have two deep threats that could help the offense in areas it struggled with in 2010, like the red zone. The junior had 529 yards and six touchdowns at Texas, figures that would have placed him second at Arizona in touchdowns and receiving yards if he put up similar numbers when compared to last year’s Wildcat statistics. Stoops said spring practices would be

easier to pitch with a bigger lead.” Bandilla replaced freshman starter Konner Wade after 4.1 innings of work. Wade allowed six hits and only one earned run in his second collegiate start. “I thought he pitched well,” Lopez said. “We didn’t play very

good defense in one sequence where we threw a ball away on a sacrifice bunt. If we make that play, he might get the win, who knows.” Arizona finishes the two-game series today at noon before hosting Oregon State to continue Pac-10 play during the weekend.

Mike Christy/Arizona Daily Wildcat

Wide receiver Juron Criner was Arizona’s most productive offensive player in 2011. Head coach Mike Stoops believes pairing Criner with wide receiver Dan Buckner will give Arizona premium offensive attack.

crucial to developing a rapport between Buckner and quarterback Foles. “We need to spend a lot of time on communication, understanding their communications at the line of scrimmage,” Stoops said. “There’s a lot that’s said that isn’t said at the line of scrimmage and those are things that Dan (Buckner) will get better at as we move through spring and through camp.” Admittedly, Buckner said it would take more than just spring and summer practices to get the communication down with Foles and the rest of the offense. With returners David Douglas, Richard Morrison and Terrence Miller also as long completion threats, the 2011 Arizona Wildcats are built to go deep, something Buckner said makes them limitless. “We can only be as good as we’re going to be, and we can be as bad as we choose to be,” he said. “When we’re playing at the top of our game — all four (wide receivers) — I feel like we’re unstoppable.”
