Board elects new regent By Brenna Goth ARIZONA DAILY WILDCAT Arizona State University student Tyler Bowyer was appointed as the newest student regent on the Arizona Board of Regents by Gov. Jan Brewer last month. A new student regent is selected every year, rotating between the three state universities. Though regents are typically selected from recommendations made by a selection committee at the university, Bowyer applied directly through Gov. Brewer’s office. He will replace Northern Arizona University Student Regent Jennifer Ginther and serve a two-year term starting in July. Daily Wildcat: What was your reaction to the Board of Regents meeting last week when they were tackling issues such as tuition? Tyler Bowyer: I thought, first of all, it was commendable that the regents cared enough to where there were proposals brought forward that were in students’ interests, proposals that were brought forward by student regents to limit tuition increases and limit fee increases. On the opposite end, there were individuals who wanted to make sure services weren’t cut. It’s definitely a delicate situation of trying to find that good balance. At times it was an intense discussion, but with what the board was given, they did a phenomenal job of reaching out to students. What I hope for is to move forward throughout the next year and find even better ways to make sure the education students are getting is affordable, accessible and as high of a quality as possible. Why did you decide to apply for the position directly through Gov. Brewer rather than through the university selection process? REGENT, page 2

Students get creative in Scott & Co. exhibition By Kim Kotel ARIZONA DAILY WILDCAT

Next Wednesday evening , the coarse, earthy bricks of the self-described speakeasy, Scott & Co., 47 N. Scott Ave. , will hold more than just the din of Tucsonan chatter and the clinking of exquisitely crafted cocktails between its walls. From 6 p.m. to 11 p.m. , fine arts seniors Kayla Ihrig and Jason Sims will curate “Casted Conversations,” an exhibition of encaustic works by local artists Diane Aldrich Kleiss and Sherrie Posternak . The exhibition began as a semesterlong project Ihrig and Sims took on for a graduate-level course at the university. “We start(ed) from day one just trying to figure out what (art Yasel MendozaPatterson is singing, and Alejandro Ochoa de Miguel work) we like(d) and where we’d like to plan (the exhibition),” Ihrig said. “We had the freedom of doing a more traditional gallery space or something like (Scott & Co.), where this is the first time they’ve ever hosted an art gallery or anything like it.” Scott & Co.’s owners welcomed the proposal of “Casted Conversations” setting up shop for an evening. With the owners on board and Scott & Co.’s bare brick walls looking ideal for the hanging of artwork, Ihrig and Sims solidified their decision to bring their exhibition to the heady speakeasy. A well-stocked and staffed bar seemed the perfect pairing for the encaustic works up for sale — an evening of fine tastes of the tongue and eye awaits those curious to discover what “Casted Conversations” was all about. “(Sims and I) both primarily work with photography,” Ihrig said. “So it was natural to think about producing a photography exhibition. However, once we (chose) Scott & Co. for the venue, we decided (to) push ourselves and bring in work that would really thrive in that space, which (ended up being the) encaustic painting.” The event aims to address the relationship between the natural and created worlds through the artists’ manipulation of poured wax. “Sherrie, she works alternatively, and sometimes she bases (her work) loosely off of photographs,” Ihrig said. “Diane, she’s working with found (objects) and

(pieces) of the earth, incorporating (them into) the beeswax.” Ihrig and Sims chose pieces from Kleiss’ and Posternak’s works that particularly exemplified complex textures and vibrant bursts of color. This will be Ihrig’s second time curating an exhibition, an opportunity that Ihrig believes will equip her with vital information she needs to know as a pro-

fessional artist. “I understand the perspective of a curator, and I’ve learned some steps that an artist can do to make the curator’s job run a lot more smoothly,” Ihrig said. “Simple steps (like) knowing exactly what information the curators will be looking for and information they will want for a press CASTED, page 2

Physiology head denied tenure after five years

By Eliza Molk ARIZONA DAILY WILDCAT

The tenure of physiology department head Nick Delamere will not be renewed for reasons unbeknownst to many physiology faculty members, and even to Delamere himself. Timothy Secomb, a physiology professor and member of the UA Faculty Senate, presented the issue to the Faculty Senate during a call to the audience at its April 4 meeting. He stated that the issue “disrespected, disenfranchised and destabilized” the department of physiology because it left faculty and Delamere asking, “Why?” Department heads are appointed year-to-year by the college’s dean. The Dean of the College of Medicine, Dr. Steven Goldschmid, has reappointed Delamere each year since 2006. Every five years, department heads are given a mandated

five-year review. Delamere’s notice of his nonrenewal as department head occurred immediately prior to this review. The Memorandum of Understanding on Shared Governance states, “with respect to the selection or retention of a head … the position of the faculty shall be determined.” Secomb explained that he, along with other physiology faculty members, felt that the memorandum was violated because there was no consultation with the physiology faculty at large. “If something like this happens without even consulting us (the physiology faculty), we wonder what else is planned. There is no good reason for our department head not to be renewed,” Secomb said. Delamere said that although the “answers haven’t been made clear” as to why his tenure as department head wasn’t

sion making,” he said. Provost Meredith Hay declined to comment because “it is the policy of the UA to not comment on personnel matters.” Wanda Howell, chair of the Faculty Senate and a nutritional sciences professor, said that the physiology faculty was left without the ability to voice its opinion and that there was no “good data to show rationale” behind the decision. The main issue, she explained, was that a careful investigation must be completed to fulfill the requirements of the Shared Governance Memorandum. Although Delamere said that he is “unsure” of what his future career plans will be, he has a “very active” research lab and will continue to teach for the remainder of the semester. “I’ve got a busy schedule already,” he said. “There is plenty for me to do at the university.”

renewed, he has “enjoyed every moment” of his five year administration. He explained that during his time, he was able to expand the department by recruiting three assistant professors, two full time professors, more than double the amount of physiology pre-majors and majors, and by bringing in more than $3 million of research grants of his own. “It’s been a good ride,” he said. “I loved teaching the students, and I am happy to put it (the job as department head) down in the book of life.” Delamere added that college deans have difficult jobs, that include making difficult decisions, but that he would like to know the reason behind the decsion of faculty who decided to not renew his tenure as department head. “I want to see it (the reason) for the sake of the physiology faculty to be a part of the deci-

REGENT continued from page 1 I didn’t actually decide myself, per se. I offered to serve in any capacity to the governor by applying for a number of positions at the Office of Boards and Commissions and it just so happens that I was aligned and it was recommended to me to apply for the student regent position. My name was brought forward and I applied that route rather than the traditional ASA (Arizona Students’ Association) route for a number of reasons. If you’re not in the crowd, as far as ASA goes, it’s hard to actually go through that traditional process. I wasn’t really looking to offend them in any way but more so to serve our state. What role do you think a student regent serves on the board? One of the things a university president mentioned to me is that many of the regents don’t have a complete understanding of the university system because they don’t go there. They may have kids that go there or have visited it here and there, but we’re actually here every day. Being able to see how the university functions, and how it works for me personally as a student is different from any other regent. Jennifer (Ginther), Billy (UA Student Regent William Holmes) and I all come from extremely different backgrounds and challenges, whether it be coming up with the funds to live, or working the

CASTED continued from page 1 release, (along with) other promotional work. (I) make their job a little easier, and in return, they will know I’m a great artist to work with, which will hopefully result in (more) shows.” With the exhibition only a week away, Ihrig admits to experiencing moments of nervousness after dedicating months to planning and organizing the event. “I’m most excited for people to experience a non-traditional art space and the community coming together for (this kind of) event,” Ihrig said. “We hope to have people from all different backgrounds stop in, grab a drink and enjoy the art while meeting both Jason and I and the artists.” An evening of artistic immersion, socializing and sipping on premium cocktails could be the ideal midweek rejuvenation — experience some, network some, lay back some. “Casted Conversations” sounds like a win-win.

Is there a unique voice or perspective that you think you bring to the Board of Regents? I’m a native Arizonan. I’ve been through every step of the educational process here. I was born and raised in Gilbert and currently reside in Gilbert. I understand and am able to connect with the general population and see the real issues that affect students today ... I look to utilize my experience as an Arizona native, as a student of our large university to be able to not only communicate with the student population, but use not only my ideas but their ideas to bring forward a system that works better. How do you plan on incorporating the input of students in your decisions? Do you think students are aware of all the issues at hand? As a student regent, it’s important to be able to efficiently communicate with the student body and the leaders of the student body so the message is clear of where we’re able to negotiate. In some ways it’s been difficult in the past because there’s been a disconnect between the students and the Regents or the Legislature. I hope to bridge that by educating. One thing that I was really surprised about was not seeing enough students at that meeting last week. I think a lot of people were expecting a lot larger student presence at that meeting. That goes to show that we definitely want to be able to communicate. A lot of students might not fully understand all of the issues.

9 million US adults say they are lesbian, gay, transgender or bisexual, study finds McClatchy Tribune

LOS ANGELES — About 9 million people in the United States identify themselves as lesbian, gay, bisexual or transgender, according to a UCLA study released Thursday. The estimate, which translates to about 3.5 percent of adults as LGBT and 0.3 percent of adults as transgender, was created by the Williams Institute at UCLA’s School of Law and argues that any estimate of the population is difficult because there are insufficient and inconsistent national surveys. The study culled data and methods from nine surveys conducted over the last seven years

BILBAO, Spain — Spanish police on Tuesday discovered nearly one ton of explosives in an arms cache of the armed Basque separatist group ETA, police said. The explosives were found in a country house in the Basque locality of Legorreta, where two suspected ETA members were detained earlier Tuesday. The arms cache was one of the biggest ever attributed to ETA in Spain. It was discovered only three months after ETA announced a “permanent” ceasefire in January. The two detainees, who are brothers, were suspected of supplying ETA with weapons and explosives. The arrests followed those of two other ETA suspects in central France on Sunday. The two had fled following an exchange of gunfire in which a police officer was wounded on Saturday.

TIRUVERKADU, India — Neighbors crowded around the cardboard box containing a color television, one of dozens recently distributed in this Indian community of mud-floored huts 25 miles from bustling Chennai.

Morris Ganaden, 75, of Independence, Mo., holds one of the Seroquel tablets that were given to him instead of Synthroid, which is what he was prescribed. Because of the error by the pharmacy, Ganaden ended up in the emergency room two times with stroke symptoms.

The shootout was criticized by Bildu, a radical Basque separatist alliance that wants to participate in the May 22 local elections. Bildu said the “incident” went against the cease-fire declared by ETA. Prime Minister Jose Luis Rodriguez Zapatero’s government, however, did not find the criticism sufficient to guarantee Bildu the right to contest the elections. The government says Spain will only authorize radical separatist parties that clearly condemn ETA violence. The government intends to investigate whether Bildu candidates include people linked to Batasuna, ETA’s illegal political wing. Batasuna and its entourage recently launched a new radical separatist party, Sortu, which was then barred by the Supreme Court from contesting the elections.

and averaged results from five of those surveys to estimate sexual orientation and results from two surveys to estimate the transgender population. Among other findings: Of the lesbian, gay and bisexual population, bisexuals were a slightly larger group, representing 1.8 percent of the adult population compared to 1.7 percent who were lesbian or gay. It also found an estimated 8.2 percent of Americans reported participating in samesex sexual activity; and an estimated 11 percent held some same-sex sexual attraction, but neither group necessarily identified as lesbian, gay, bisexual or transgender.

THE

Initiative seeks to reduce medical errors McClatchy Tribune WASHINGTON — The Obama administration announced a broad new initiative Tuesday to reduce medical errors, partnering with private insurers, business leaders, hospitals and patient advocates to tackle a problem that kills thousands of Americans every year. The campaign, funded by the health care overhaul the president signed last year, aims to cut the number of harmful preventable conditions such as infections that patients acquire in the hospital by 40 percent over the next three years. And it seeks to cut readmissions to hospitals 20 percent by encouraging better care for patients after they leave the hospital. “Those are big goals,” said Dr. Don Berwick, a leading national advocate for patient safety who oversees the federal Medicare and Medicaid programs. “But the results for patients and families will be dramatic — millions of people … suffering less, tens of thousands of deaths averted and anguish and worry decreased beyond measure.” Concern about medical errors and the dangers of hospital-acquired infections has been building for more than a decade amid growing evidence that the nation’s hospitals are not as safe as was commonly believed. One recent study published in the journal Health Affairs estimated that one in three patients admitted to a hospital experiences what is known as an “adverse event” such as being given the wrong medication, acquiring an infection or receiving the wrong surgical procedure. While top-performing in-

stitutions around the country have made dramatic improvements in reducing errors, many health care experts and patient advocates believe progress has been too slow. “We can’t keep going at the pace we are going,” said Sorrel King, a leading patient advocate whose 18-month-old daughter Josie died in 2001 when she was given the wrong medication at Johns Hopkins Medical Center, where she was being treated for burns. The new health care law provides billions of dollars to improve care by rewarding hospitals and physicians that meet higher quality standards, including lowering hospital readmissions that result from poor care. And in coming months, the Obama administration plans to hand out $500 million in grants to community based organizations that partner with hospitals to develop programs targeting patients immediately after they are discharged from the hospital. Research has shown that this is a critical time for patients, a period in which the right follow-up care can prevent complications that result in costly and potentially dangerous readmissions. The administration also plans to spend $500 million to test models for reducing nine types of medical errors, including surgical site infections, pressure ulcers and complications from childbirth. Administration officials have been working to build a broad coalition of health care providers to support the new quality initiatives, which many believe will ultimately save billions of dollars.

JOHANNESBURG — Ivory Coast’s new leader took charge of a divided country Tuesday, facing continued fighting in some neighborhoods of its commercial capital and a growing humanitarian crisis. President Alassane Ouattara confronts the challenge of convincing skeptical opponents, including the 46 percent of the electorate who voted last fall for his rival, that he’s not a stooge of France or the West and is strong enough to unite his African nation’s disparate political forces. Nearly 2 million people were displaced by weeks of fighting when his rival, former President Laurent Gbagbo, refused to step down. Medical aid and food were looted by militias during the violence. The country’s former colonial power, France, pledged $589 million to help ease the humanitarian situation, pay the backlog of international debt, get the economy moving and reboot the public sector after months of paralysis. Most of the fighting Tuesday was in the Cocody neighborhood of Abidjan, the commercial capital, a Gbagbo stronghold where the former president’s residence was located, and in the city’s Plateau district. Forces loyal to Ouattara were trying to defeat the remaining diehard Gbagbo militants after relying heavily on French military assistance Monday and Tuesday to reach the former president’s residence and capture him. On Tuesday, five of Ivory Coast’s top military generals pledged their allegiance to Ouattara as president. In a TV address after Gbagbo’s capture, Ouattara called for restraint and promised that the former leader and his wife Simone would be treated with humanity and dignity as they face justice. U.N. spokesman Farhan Haq said the couple and their son had been moved to a secret, secure location outside Abidjan. France has insisted its military, which intervened at the formal request of the United Nations to protect civilians, played no part in Gbagbo’s arrest. But many of his supporters may doubt the French version, having been bombarded by propaganda on state television for months accusing France and the U.N. of a conspiracy to take over the country. They form a strong undercurrent of opposition to Ouattara, who is perceived by many as being close to France and French President Nicolas Sarkozy. Some analysts say the only way for Ouattara to neutralize doubts about his leadership is to get the economy moving quickly, restore security, get the banks open for the first time in two months and the public sector back to work.

A: Dear Here or There: The choice is yours based on what is more convenient. If you plan to take the class at the UA, refer to the summer Schedule of Classes to see the available sessions and course times. When searching for summer classes please note that the new Tier I numbering system does not take effect until fall, so use the INDV, TRAD, and NATS prefixes in your search for summer classes. Speaking of convenience, the UA offers a variety of fully online courses that may work well for you, especially if you are not going to be in Tucson over the summer. Use the Additional Search Criteria option in the Schedule of Classes and select Fully Online under the Mode of Instruction (3rd button from the bottom of list). If you plan to take the class from another institution, you will need to be sure the class you plan to take will satisfy the general education requirement. Once you identify the course you would like to take, refer to the Transfer Credit Preapproval process as outlined on the Office of the Registrar website (http://registrar.arizona.edu). It is very important you obtain prior approval from your academic advisor for transfer course work. This protects you from taking a course that either will not transfer or is not equivalent to the general education requirement you want to fulfill. Once you complete the transfer course, you will need to have an official transcript sent to the Office of the Registrar so that the course can be added to your academic records. The address for transcripts and other useful information regarding the transfer process is also available at their website. When you see the course listed in your UAccess account, you should ask your advisor to make any necessary “adjustments” so that the course will apply to the appropriate requirement. One thing to note, you must earn a grade of C or better in a transfer class to earn credit at UA. Also, keep in mind that, you can transfer no more than 64 units from a community college toward the total units needed to graduate. If you want the course to count towards your degree, make sure you have not already reached the maximum allowable transfer units. Taking a summer course can be an excellent option for many reasons. As you can see from the length of the answer to your simple question, there are many factors to consider when deciding about summer courses. It is a perfect reason to have a conversation with your academic advisor. Best wishes as you consider your summer plans!

Unplug yourself from modern technology Tanner Weigel

Arizona Daily Wildcat

o much has happened in the swath of time that we affectionately call human history, and still most would rather live in the now. Don’t get me wrong, I’d love to visit with some of the great minds of the past thousand or so years, but that would also mean that other less pleasant sites would grace my view. The Black Death sounds great and all, but I think I’ll have to pass. Really though, be it the advent of modern medicine, the formation of stable forms of government or even the discovery of electricity, there is so much history that certainly would have been a marvel to witness. But, because we benefit so much from said advances, why we would ever want to leave the year 2011? What would happen if we were to lose that progress? What if we could no longer count on the technological conveniences of contemporary society? As frightening as it may seem, a short while ago a handful of countries had a taste of just that. On March 28, a 75-year-old woman in Georgia (the country, not the state) was digging around for some scrap metal, a seemingly innocuous activity. But, in the process, she hacked into an internet-providing fiber-optic cable. Apparently this cable must have been pretty important, because with that woman’s one presumably accidental action, Internet service was not only cut off in her country, but in neighboring Armenia as well. Oops. But the kicker is that when the police questioned her, she adamantly claimed that she had never heard of the Internet. I personally believe her, and quite frankly envy her. If I could decrease my Internet use back to just two hours a day, I think I would be much happier. And so here is the crux of the issue. We are very reliant on modern technology, and that honestly may be more detrimental than we realize. So hear me out when I say: Cut back on the Internet, the texting, the iPod listening and all of the rest. To dub this a cliche call to action would be an understatement. But I think there is some value in it. I don’t mean to suggest that you and your family give up all electronic gadgetry for a whole month (save that for some oddly motivated family whose lifechanging experiences make for a great Reader ’s Digest article). But I do suggest that you actually use the voice communicating capabilities of your cell phone, actually write a letter instead of a hastily composed email and actually make real friends, as opposed to some friend of a friend of a friend of a friend on Facebook. Heck, for as much time as the guy who sits in front of me in class plays Farmville, he should have received his doctorate in Agricultural Sciences by now. So, at the very least, begin thinking about cutting back. The world has come extremely far technologically, even in the last 50 years. I do not propose that we deny those wonderful advances, but rather stop, take a breath and observe all of the other things that give our lives meaning. When we consider how many people in this world still lack basic sanitary living conditions and exist under the constant threat of famine or war, we should have no problem setting down the iPad, if only for an hour. So get up and run around for a while, finally read a book for fun or just lie in the grass and stare at the stars. Heaven forbid we ever have to deal with a temporary outage of the Internet, leaving you unable to frantically check for some washed-up celebrity’s Twitter update. Then again, for those of us who can deal with it, watching everyone else squirm might make for some good fun.

MAILBAG Legislature’s focus on firearms distracts from education

There’s been a lot of talk in our statehouse about the university and “constitutional rights.” Unfortunately, it’s all been about guns. What our legislators — who claim to be constitutional champions — ought to be defending is the Arizona Constitution, Article 11, Section 6. It says, “The university and all other state educational institutions shall be open to students of both sexes, and the instruction furnished shall be as nearly free as possible.” Does $10,000 tuition sound “nearly free” to any of you? I urge you to call Gov. Jan Brewer to defend our constitution and provide emergency funding for the universities to lower tuition back down to “nearly free.” If she refuses, let’s impeach her. — Rafe Sagarin UA marine ecologist

those crazy people have guns. Some don’t. But don’t stand up on a pedestal to shout out that those who exercise this right are menaces to society. Guns don’t possess this aura that makes people go into a blind rage and start killing. Yes, guns can be scary. Guns are made to cause grievous bodily harm to all types of living things — nobody is debating that. They are something to be respected. But I have never heard of a gun that was used in an unjustified killing without an unstable person pulling the trigger. Please, stop trying to make us look like we are just ticking time bombs waiting to snap and commit mass murder outside the Student Union Memorial Center, like you say. I won’t use rhetoric to try to make you seem incompetent, so why are you? The first amendment is open to interpretation, and although I disagree, I respect your opinion. There should be no place for fear mongering, even though both sides do it. This wouldn’t be a debate if both sides didn’t have valid points, even in a political system as screwed up as today’s. Besides, if everybody supports your viewpoint, nobody will carry guns on campus despite the recent bill, right? — Jay Fielder Operations Management junior

We’re in-state, we should get a little bit of slack.” — Ashlee Espensen, freshman studying molecular and cellular biology

“I’m out-of-state, so I am already paying a lot of money. So, like, it kind of sucks to pay more money with what I’m already paying right now.” — Chris Kang, accounting sophomore

“It’s awful. I mean I’ve got another year here so trying to figure paying that off while my little sister is coming in with my parents is not exactly the best news in the world, but it’s something we’ll deal with to finish off school, I guess.” — Jessica Cooper, journalism senior

“I know nothing about the tuition increase, honestly. I’ve kind of heard about it, but I’m not really concerned.” — Amanda Pursel, elementary education freshman

“It doesn’t help me out because I have to pay a lot more, and I have to pay for my college funds, expenses. I’m out-of-state, so I am paying like $30,000 or something crazy.” — Kyle Zimmerman, business freshman

The Daily Wildcat editorial policy

laws have you actually examined? Or even, how many times have you written articles based on an emotional appeal instead of a logical one? I am disturbed by how often I see articles that focus on “what ifs” instead of actual events. So let’s look at the facts then. Only people over the age of 21 would be able to carry on campus. Armed citizens would not be able to enter buildings. This means that the vast majority of freshmen, sophomores, juniors and even seniors won’t be able to carry guns on campus because a) they are too young or b) they have no place to store their weapons. No, there will not be weapon vaults outside of every classroom. Where did that idea even come from? Did you not research what happened to the 25 universities that allow guns on campus in Utah and Colorado? How many times have you actually seen somebody open carry somewhere not at a firearms venue? And how many of those times did you observe a murder or assault take place? The truth is, the people who exercise these rights are probably the most lawabiding citizens you will ever meet — and they probably are everywhere you go, you just don’t know it. There are crazy people out there. Some of

POLICEBEAT By Alexander Vega ARIZONA DAILY WILDCAT

Crazy kids climb Koffler

Two students climbed over a fence of the Henry Koffler building in order to gain access to the roof on April 11. A University of Arizona Police Department officer discovered the two students at 12:10 a.m. The UAPD officer, on bicycle patrol around the UA Mall at midnight, saw two people on the southwest side of the buildingâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s roof. As he rode along the south side of the building, he could hear a male and female voice coming from above and contacted an additional UAPD officer for assistance. A police aide supervisor informed the officer that the easiest way to the part of the roof where the students were was the southwest staircase. Both officers then proceeded up the stairwell and came into contact with the man and woman on their way down. The officer asked if they were coming from the roof, and the man confirmed that they were. They just went up to â&#x20AC;&#x153;check out the view,â&#x20AC;? said the male student. The female student admitted to jumping the gate in order to get to the roof. The officer then informed the students that a locked gate meant that entry was prohibited. No one else was found on the roof and the officer filled out code of conduct referrals for trespassing and forwarded them to the Dean of Students Office.

Gnomeo & Juliet do Tucson

Two troll faces were found spray painted on a wall of the Tyndall Avenue Parking Garage on April 11. A UAPD officer patrolling the top level of the garage found the graffiti at 5:44 p.m. The graffiti consisted of two stenciled faces in black paint with the word â&#x20AC;&#x153;Problem?â&#x20AC;? painted between the two faces. The officer notified UA Facilities Management to have the spray paint removed.

State search for suicidal girl ends positively

Two concerned friends initiated a statewide search for a friend who sent them suicidal text messages on April 11. At 1:14 a.m., an officer met with the two students at UAPD headquarters. They told the officer that their non-UA affiliated friend had sent messages saying that she wanted to harm herself as she was on her way out of town to visit her mother. According to her friends, she was upset about breaking up with her significant other two weeks prior. One of the students showed the officer several text messages. â&#x20AC;&#x153;My time here is over,â&#x20AC;? said one of the text messages. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Im going out with a bang.â&#x20AC;? She also sent a message asking that someone take care of her dog. The friend tried to call her about the most recent text to determine whether or not she was serious, but did not get a response. The officer then contacted the womanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s mother to explain what was going on and that it was a serious matter, to which the mother said that she understood and was willing to help. She confirmed that her daughter was on her way to visit and that she had just told her mother that she was north of Phoenix, Ariz. At this point, the officer broadcasted a statewide attempt to locate the woman to check on her welfare. A short time after sending out the broadcast, the officer received a phone call from the girl. She said that she was upset but did not mean for the text messages to sound the way they did. After the recent breakup, she said she didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t realize the things she was saying. The officer explained to her that she shouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be sending these kinds of messages to friends no matter how upset she may feel. At that point, the officer didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t feel comfortable ending the conversation on the phone and asked that she speak to an officer in person. She agreed and an officer from the Yavapai County Sheriffâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Office intercepted her vehicle and spoke with her. He reported that she seemed OK for now and that he would follow up with her. After the report from the Yavapai County Sheriffâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Office, the officer informed the friends of the developments, who became worried that the woman would be upset with them for involving the police.

INSTANT RELAXATION FOR FINALS:

“4-7-8”

Try the breath exercise

Want a no-cost simple, way to calm yourself before an exam? Reduce stress? Fall asleep? Try the 4-7-8 breath exercise. This simple technique can relax you and it takes almost no time, requires no equipment and can be done anywhere. It can help relax you when you are ready to fall asleep, are sitting in a trafﬁc jam, or need to calm your nerves before an exam or during a stressful situation. To begin: Place the tip of your tongue against the ridge of tissue just behind your upper front teeth, and keep it there through the entire exercise. You will be exhaling through your mouth around your tongue; try pursing your lips slightly if this seems awkward. Exhale completely through your mouth, making a “whoosh” sound. Close your mouth and inhale quietly through your nose to a mental count of four. Hold your breath for a count of seven. Exhale completely through your mouth, making a whoosh sound to a count of eight. This is one breath. Now inhale again and repeat the cycle three more times for a total of four breaths.

6 Steps for Better Energy By Gale Welter, MS, RD, CSCS, Nutrition Counselor Erratic schedules, food availability, and decision-making challenges often make healthy food choices tough. Use these 10 steps to help balance your energy and weight, and to provide a general sense of well-being. Eat when hungry, stop when full. Seems simple, but this could make a big difference. Avoid mindless eating. Eat foods you really like and savor them, take smaller bites, chew well, take your time. Avoid eating right from the bag, carton, or box; take out a satisfying serving and put the rest away. Go back for more only if you are truly hungry.

STEP #1

Drink enough fluids throughout the day to keep your urine pale and clear, but avoid nutritionally “empty” calories (sodas, lemonade, fruit drinks, coffee drinks, and alcohol). Best choices: water, milk (up to 32 oz/day), calcium fortified fruit juice (8-oz), weak tea, flavored waters, and crystal light.

STEP #2

Eat something (“breakfast”) within an hour of waking up to get your metabolism running and to avoid “catch up” eating later in the day.

STEP #2

Plan ahead. Buy handy foods to carry with you during the day (see sidebar), whether it is a whole meal or snacks. Get some Baggies and pack foods the night before. Use an insulated lunch bag with blue ice for refrigerated items.

STEP #2

Make healthy late night and study snack choices. Balance carbohydrates with protein. Include some nuts, tuna, deli meat, cheese, yogurt, or milk with your carbohydrate snacks like fruit, veggies, crackers, pretzels, popcorn, etc. Take a multivitamin/mineral daily (with food) as an insurance policy against the gaps that can occur when hectic schedules undo your best intentions.

STEP #2

This exercise is a natural tranquilizer for the nervous system. Do not do more than four breaths at one time for the ﬁrst month of practice. Once you develop this technique by practicing it every day, it will be a very useful tool that you will always have with you. Breathe…here… now. It’s free! Adapted from www.drweil.com

Steps for better Sleep

This Saturday more than 80 bands will invade 31 stages for downtown Tucson’s Spring Club Crawl. Tucked off the main drag of Congress, the owners of the Sacred Machine Museum are preparing an arsenal of synths, lasers, speakers and fog in their quest to

make art rock. By Jazmine Woodberry ARIZONA DAILY WILDCAT

Blind Divine – 11 p.m.

Daniel Diaz of Blind Divine is also the owner of Sacred Machine Museum downtown, where many of his own creepycool illustrations line the walls. He and his wife Paula C. Valencia, Blind Divine’s vocalist, had a heavy hand in curating the Sacred Museum stage at Club Crawl. Wildlife spoke to Diaz about the Crawl earlier this week. Are you excited about this year’s Club Crawl? It’s definitely going to be something special. It’s going to be a really amazing experience and we’re currently working on a new album that we haven’t performed since January.

We’re going to present some of our new material during this performance. What is exciting about the other bands performing at Sacred Machine this weekend? The first band that’s going to open up is going to be Philip Wade, who plays an eclectic style of guitar. He uses a lot of sound effects and creates these really beautiful soundscapes. I like the experimental aspect and the whole idea of making a guitar sound (with something) other than a guitar. That’s what we do a lot with Blind Divine.

Artist’s large public installations reflect landscape, address environmental issues By Miranda Butler ARIZONA DAILY WILDCAT

his week, Master of Fine Arts candidate Andrea Jensen is making one of the ultimate signs of mass consumerism into a thoughtprovoking artistic medium. She has created a large-scale billboard installation at Alvernon Way and Ajo Way. Jensen’s billboard is an impressive 14 by 48 feet and has been a project of hers for several months. “This (project) started as a response to the oil spill this summer. (The spill was) an example of the way that we’re using our land … and how that’s affecting our landscape,” Jensen said. The billboard is Jensen’s first large-scale installation, as well as her first opportunity to put her artwork out into the

environment. It is a part of her thesis project. She has also created a series of three paintings that complement the installation. These abstract collages of paint and recycled billboard materials are also a response to the BP oil spill. “They’ll be more about my (emotions) about the oil spill when it happened — I felt very negative about it,” Jensen said. The paintings are a series that begin with destruction and progress toward feelings of hope. Her paintings show that “no matter how much we try to control nature, it will ultimately prevail,” Jensen said. Jensen integrated one of the images from her paintings into the billboard itself. Jensen explained that in this way, her artwork mirrors the process of recycling. Although Jensen’s work places emphasis on environmental issues, she said

that her main goal is to ask viewers to have a moment of reflection. Her artwork also reminds viewers of the environment itself, because the billboard features photos of the landscape that surrounds it. “I really just want viewers … to just think about how we’re using the land and how our lifestyle impacts that use,” Jensen said. Where did your idea to do this kind of work come from? A lot of my work is in response to the landscape, our abuse of the landscape and environmental concerns. So I look at billboards as being part of this disruption, obscuring our view of the landscape. Billboards just remind us of things that we need to buy or things that we need to do. They take our attention away from what’s going on on the land or how we’re using it. They’re kind

of a reflection of our fast-paced lifestyle. I’m interested in how that kind of lifestyle affects our landscape and leads to certain environmental issues. How s location significant to your artwork? I think it’s important in this case because … it’s actually in the presence of what I’m speaking of. I feel like the (location and the billboard itself) complement each other. When people go into the museum, they’re expecting to see art, but when you’re out on the highway and you’re passing a billboard, you’re not expecting it to be there. And I want there to be a link between the two. Also, I think it’ll touch a different audience — not everybody gets a chance to go see art in a gallery or museum. But a billboard is very much in the public sphere, so there will be a lot more people that will

eventually see it. Your artwork is really different from the advertisements that we would normally see on a billboard. Do you deliberately choose to make your message as different as possible from what people expect? I see the billboard as a venue to draw attention to the landscape. The image on my billboard mirrors the landscape that’s just below it. So rather than have a message … or some advertisement on the billboard, it’s just going to reflect the surroundings. So I definitely hope that stands out as something different. I mean, some people don’t even notice billboards. They’ve just been ingrained into our minds. We’re so accustomed to seeing them — my hope is that maybe this will grab some attention because it’s the opposite of that.

Graham’s legacy lives on through company By Dallas Williamson ARIZONA DAILY WILDCAT

IF YOU GO

The nation’s oldest and most prolific dance company is returning to Tucson, and this time the company is adding some local flavor to its program. In continuing UApresents’ season of energetic and colorful performances, the Martha Graham Dance Company will take the Centennial Hall stage on Saturday night at 8 p.m. to showcase some of the most popular works of its namesake, Martha Graham. Martha Graham is considered to be one of the most influential artists of all time. Knighted as one of the “mothers of modern dance,” Graham broke away from the graceful confines of classical ballet that prevailed in the early 1900s and invented a new movement vocabulary which explored the innermost struggles and emotions of the psyche. Founding the Martha Graham Dance Company in 1926, Graham went on to train many of the world’s most eminent performers, including Merce Cunningham, Erick Hawkins, Pearl Lang and Paul

It’s going to be beautiful.

Graham’s passion for emotional artistic expression. Besides performing several of Graham’s most renowned masterpieces, the company has also begun to celebrate Graham’s legacy by showcasing the works of

choreographers she has inspired. Saturday night’s show will reflect this fusion of inspiration. Along with works based off Graham’s repertoire, such as “Lamentation Variations,” the concert will also highlight the choreographer’s signature. Including a cameo performance of Graham’s “Panorama” by the UA’s School of Dance, the concert will close with the full production of Graham’s famed “Appalachian Spring.”

We did a Club Crawl show and basically they have the space, we’ve been working together a while and we did the last Club Crawl. And the thing about their place, in some way or another, we’re always trying to complement the art. Phil, who’s playing before us, I’ve known this guy for years and he sets the mood right, the somber,

gothic aspects of Daniel’s work — and Daniel and Paula, of course, their music complements the art as well. What should audience members expect from the show? We promise laser beams. (Laughs). It’s going to be some crazy fun live electronic stuff, improv, crazy dance music. There’s lasers and projection and facemasks, karate punches … everything. What’s the difference between the Sacred Machine show and all the other shows? There’s nothing else like what we do at that place. It’s a far cry from the

rest of it. If I was just going to that show, and it wasn’t me and it was cool, different shows, I would probably just go to that (Sacred Machine) show. I wouldn’t go to Club Crawl but I’d go to this one and it’s nice to attract a different type of crowd. I’ve been involved in electronic music for a while, originally from the Detroit scene, and it’s really great that (Diaz and Valencia) want different types of music in the Tucson consciousness. There’s no one like them doing what they do and they’re on the start of something new here.

‘Insidious’: No blood, no death, no problem By Miranda Butler ARIZONA DAILY WILDCAT If you’ve seen the previews for “Insidious,” the latest horror flick from “Saw” director James Wan, you may find yourself asking: What is this movie actually about? Is the entire film this choppy and dark? And what does ‘insidious’ mean, anyway? Webster tells us that insidious means ‘stealthily treacherous,’ which might be a good way to describe a spirit unbound by haunted house rules. But “Insidious” is not a haunted house movie. “Insidious” instead offers a creative blend of scare tactics and comes across as an interesting psychological thriller. The movie’s high-angle shots, nightmarish imagery and bleak lighting give “Insidious” a mood and style similar to the 2009 film “The Haunting in Connecticut.” Likewise, the slow, creeping

In “Insidious,” it’s not the house that’s haunted, but maybe this creepy-ass lady is.

pace builds suspense until the finale. The sound crew goes a little overboard with continuous Hitchcockian violin screams, but the minimal soundtrack and creepy visual effects contribute to the film’s high levels of

accomplishes all its fear simply by psyching you out. In terms of plot, “Insidious” is reminiscent of “The Amityville Horror”: Family moves into new house, family experiences terrifying and inexplicable phenomena, family has to escape the house — or die. We know the drill. Or do we? “Insidious” deserves mad props for straying from the typical haunted house plotline. As the film’s tagline makes clear, it’s not the house that’s haunted. It’s the family’s oldest son. And instead of going immediately to a Catholic priest, the family opts to hire an occult specialist and a team of paranormal experts. So for a while, “Insidious” feels like a really creepy episode of “Ghost

Film captures man behind muscle By Brandon Specktor ARIZONA DAILY WILDCAT

tanley Pleskun, better known by his persona Stanless Steel, is a world-class strongman famous for being one of the only humans alive who can bend a penny with his bare hands. He has deadlifted dump trucks. He has torn an entire deck of playing cards in half. He is famous in Japan. When filmmaker Zachary Levy met him, he was manning the camera as Stan stood on a runway in his hometown of Princeton, New Jersey, with a rope around each bicep. Attached at the other end: two Cessna Skyhawk airplanes. The Cessnas tried to take off in opposite directions while Stan flexed between them, holding them in place with propellers spinning wild. They hit it off right away. Levy spent the next three years of his life working on his directorial debut “Strongman,” an intimate documentary about Stanley that examines the man behind the muscle. Levy filmed close to 240 hours of footage, joining Stan at home, on the job collecting scrap metal, at

feats of strength and during appearances in New Jersey and

around the country. Working with a 270-pound steel-bender for 130 shooting days was, oddly, not an intimidating undertaking. “Stan’s a big guy and a strong guy, but he doesn’t use his strength as a tool for intimidation,“ Levy said in a

Photo courtesy of strongmanfilm.com

phone interview with Wildlife. “That’s one of the reasons I was attracted to him — he doesn’t use strength in the most obvious ways.” Levy did not make “Strongman” with pure physical strength in mind. It is Stan’s emotional strength vulnerability that made him an appealing subject of exploration. Beyond Stan’s feats of power, which fail to bring him the same satisfaction that they used to, the film focuses on his fractured personal life: Stan’s alcoholic, knifetwirling brother; his longtime, codependent girlfriend Barbara;

piles of cold steel machinery that refuse to recognize the man who rescued them from decrepit factories. Levy said one of his greatest challenges was not finding enough material to tell his story, but trimming his footage to a two-hour teaser of Stan’s complex life. “Ultimately, you have to find the pieces that work together to tell the story,” Levy said. “It’s like found object artwork, and maybe not so different than Stan, stretching this scrap metal together into something that makes sense.” It’s tempting to reduce a man who struggles to apply his strength constructively and guts metal from foreclosed Jersey factories to a symbol of the recent recession. But Levy did not set out to make a political film. He set out to tell one man’s story. “When I was filming, I didn’t want Stan to only be a symbol for something else,” Levy said. “I didn’t want Stan or Barbara or anyone in the world to be just metaphors, I want you to understand them as people first. They are people, fundamentally. I didn’t want America to be just symbols.” “Strongman” opens on Friday at The Loft Cinema.

Hunters,” as opposed to a runof-the-mill “The Exorcist” ripoff. The film also has a sense of humor, which actually emphasizes the horror rather than distracting from it. For example, the movie addresses questions like: What would happen if that family had a Brinks Home Security System? And: If all that weird stuff is going down, why don’t they just move out right away and save themselves the trouble? Naturally, there are parts that don’t quite fit, like a demonentity who looks way too much like Severus Snape to evoke sheer terror. Also, to an observant viewer, the mid-movie twist is one that you might figure out on your own. Despite this, it’s hard to predict how it all plays out in the end — and as a whole, this film does something different that will be a refreshing experience for horror fans.

‘Rolling Papers’ promises multiple hits By Remy Abillar Arizona Daily Wildcat Apparently all Wiz Khalifa raps about is “bitches and champagne,” according to “On My Level” from his new album Rolling Papers, released March 29th. After a few playthroughs, I must vigorously disagree. He also raps about weed a lot, too. Like, a lot. If the subject matter hasn’t ruled out this album for you as a potential purchase, you’re in for a treat. Wiz drops an album of pure percussive C.R.E.A.M. Fans of Khalifa’s earlier efforts (2009’s Deal or No Deal and 2006’s Show and Prove) can look forward to more tight hooks and cleanly produced tracks with Khalifa’s signature, lackadaisical flow. Billboard-topping Pittsburgh hit “Black and Yellow” may draw you toward a purchase or a download, but the album’s variety of

laid-back hip-hop explorations will keep you hooked. Second single “Roll Up” is a charmer, featuring Wiz Khalifa’s swag levels at maximum as he drops textbook girl-stealing advice over a completely infectious complement of drum machines, claps and sizzling synth. Smooth as newly frosted glass, “Hopes & Dreams” won’t let you off the hook without a few listens. A measured progression of bass, funky backbeats and echoing electronica billows like smoke in and out of the eardrum. A lilting instrumental, layered over the clicks of a cheap lighter, starts the slow burn that is “The Race.” As references flow between Mortal Kombat and due respect to hip-hop’s old guard, it’s clear that Khalifa takes his music as seriously as he refuses to take himself. Likewise, “Fly Solo” invites in listeners with a barebones intro, later dropping into a complex combina-

tion of Khalifa’s thumping vocals, kickin’ guitars and subtle electro beats. The album is not without its faults; it seems impossible to release a rap album without a minimum of three songs that are totally lame. Tracks “Cameras,” “No Sleep” and “Rooftops” are bores; you can only make so many songs about smoking weed, getting laid and being famous on one album that are good. For those looking for a tightlyproduced album from a fresh artist making his first serious mark on the mainstream, “Rolling Papers” will be a kind bud to you. If you’re not really into lyrics glorifying hedonism, philandering and drug use … well, you’ll probably won’t be into hip-hop, and you definitely won’t like this album.

Once ‘Into the Woods,’ be prepared to stay awhile The actors in Arizona Repertory Theatre’s production of “Into the Woods” all deserve medals just for getting through this marathon of a musical. That’s not to say the production isn’t enjoyable; parts are positively electric. But at a little more than three hours, including intermission, audience members should be prepared for a whole lot of lyricist Stephen Sondheim’s musical moralizing. Sondheim’s fractured fairytale on steroids sets characters from a variety of familiar stories — from Little Red Riding Hood to Cinderella to Jack, of beanstalk fame — on a collision course with one another. As their paths cross and their motives become increasingly convoluted, the characters sing and skip their way through the woods (a blunt metaphor for moral ambiguity), moving toward a cheery resolution. At the end of act one, all the characters have exactly what they want. Of course, in act two, it all goes to hell. The acts have such vastly different tones that it was almost as if each actor had to play two completely different characters. Max Nussbaum and Caitlin Kiley, as the Baker and Baker’s Wife, proved particularly adept at this task. They transformed their bickering couple on a quest into a

flawed but surprisingly redemptive story of transgression, loss and the ability to carry on. Both transcended their fairy tale archetypes and injected their second act performances with emotional honesty.

The actors in ART’s production performed the show’s almost impossible musical numbers admirably. The second act in particular featured a handful of stunning vocal moments, especially the melancholy “No One is Alone” and the magnificent finale “Children Will Listen.” Some actors occasionally veered off key, especially in the more talky numbers. There is, in fact, very little actual talking in “Into the Woods,” making the actors’ ability to carry the musical vocally all the more impressive. A few showed the strain, their voices less certain as the evening progressed. This was distracting mostly because one longed to run onstage and offer a few of them a throat lozenge. The production values in this staging of “Into the Woods” were staggering. It’s a play that demands a convincing set to avoid being completely hokey, and the dark, atmospheric forest created by scenic designer Clare P. Rowe exceeded expectations. The lighting, designed by Zachary Ciaburri, was similarly stunning. From lifelike sunsets to the eerie, green light filtering down to the forest floor, the lighting design brought the stage to life in a way technical elements rarely do. The costumes were also extremely highquality, but sometimes seemed better-suited for a Halloween party than the staging of a musical. Brian Johnson’s Wolf had one of

‘‘

the show’s most fun numbers, “Hello, Little Girl,” but was held back by his beautiful but bulky costume. He was saddled with a full wolf head, from which his singing emerged warped and muffled. The costuming problem was more evident with the show’s indisputable star: Sarah Baron as the Witch. Throughout the first act, the witch is, well, witchy. Only in the act’s final moments is she transformed back into her true, beautiful self. And while Baron’s witch costume was visually interesting, it was so heavy and overdone that it hampered her bewitching signing and acting. Despite this costuming drawback, the production positively belonged to Baron. She seemed to shoot bolts of energy into her fellow performers every time she strutted imperiously into a scene, and her singing voice was the most exciting, textured and varied by far. She didn’t steal the show, for such a verb implies sneakiness and malice. She simply owned it. Though long, Arizona Repertory Theatre’s “Into the Woods” proved well worth the journey. Its actors and technicians seem to have worked equally hard to bring this tricky musical to life.

Garrett MacDonald Explain to the UA what is behind Capoeira. It is a Brazilian marital art made by slaves that were brought over by the Portuguese to Brazil. It looks like dancing because they had to disguise it, but they used it to revolt. We are out here tying to raise money (because) we have huge event at the end of April. All of our new members are going to get their belts and the more advanced members are going to fight for their higher belts. We invite about eight masters. We have people coming from Brazil, all over America and some from Europe. What is your personal best dance move? I can do this really cool cartwheel. Does it work in the club? No … I can do a headstand though. That would work in the club. Who would you want to partner with on “Dancing With the Stars”? Martha Stewart, she’d be fabulous. Why not? She’s been to jail, she knows how to rock it. Have you ever experienced a panic attack in the midst of a fight? Only once. On your birthday we have something called a hoda. It’s a big circle where everybody plays inside. So on your birthday you have to play every person inside the circle without stopping. So it was my 21st birthday —so I was a little tipsy, naturally — and I whitedout … ended up waking up face down on the ﬂoor. What does whited-out mean? Everything went white instead of everything went black.

Introducing ‘bacon,’ the cologne for men who want to smell like fried pork It’s a sign of the Aporklypse. A Chicago man has introduced a wearable, bacon-scented fragrance called “bacon” that captures the essence of greasy Sunday-morning breakfasts. One-ounce bottles of bacon, pronounced “bay-cone,” sell for $36 and can be ordered at the product’s website, fargginay.com. The unisex line comes in Gold and Classic, offering bold and subtle bacon scents, respectively. The creator of the scent, John Leydon, soon hopes to have bacon sold in fine department stores around the country.

By Mike Schmitz ARIZONA DAILY WILDCAT

The average career path of a collegiate coach is full of ups, downs, twists and turns. It usually takes years of experience and a handful of accomplishments for a coach to earn his stripes, and even then a few bad seasons could leave him jobless. But Ryan Walters only needed five months. After joining Arizona’s football staff as a graduate assistant in August of 2010, the 25-year-old Walters quickly turned heads with his coaching ability and knowledge of the game. Walters pinch-hit for former Wildcats secondary coach Greg Brown — who left to coach at Colorado — in the 2010 Valero Alamo Bowl and was named full-time secondary coach in late-February. The youngest coach in the Pacific 10 Conference called his first gig a “dream come true” and continually called himself “blessed” for the chance to coach at age 25. Although Walters took an accelerated path through the coaching ranks, his age and inexperience shouldn’t discount his coaching prowess. “Obviously, everybody takes different avenues,” Walters said. “It’s a blessing to be this young and have this opportunity, but at the same time I’m not going to apologize for being young. I worked hard to get to where I am.” Walters, who was a 33-game starter at safety for Colorado, learned to master technique under Brown as a player, and then continued that apprenticeship at Arizona when he came to Tucson with his former coach. “Playing for (Brown) at Colorado

was key for me,” Walters said. “Understanding conceptually what to get done on defense and the way he carries himself and the amount of work he puts in really is what I try to strive to be.” Thanks to Brown, along with Walters’ dedication and growth as a coach, he’s quickly gained the trust of head coach and former safety Mike Stoops, as well as his equally youthful secondary. “He brings a lot of energy to you, and he’s got a lot of respect for the players because he’s close to our age

“Obviously, everybody takes different avenues,” Walters said. “It’s a blessing to be this young and have this opportunity, but at the same time I’m not going to apologize for being young. I worked hard to get to where I am.” — Ryan Walters and all, but it still doesn’t mean anything. He’s our coach and he has the authority,” said soon-to-be senior cornerback Trevin Wade. “I think it’s pretty good on a personal level because he can relate to you better than an older guy,” Wade added. “If we had a problem I’m sure everybody would be comfortable going to him.” The secondary certainly had its fair share of problems last season, and it’s up to Walters to not only develop youngsters like Shaquille Richardson, Jonathan McKnight and Marquis Flowers, but also to help

bring Wade back to the All-Pac-10 form he showcased in 2009. Arizona did rank fourth in the Pac-10 in pass defense last season, but it was exposed through the air during the season, most recently in the Alamo Bowl when Oklahoma State threw for 240 yards and two touchdowns — most of those came in the first half before the Cowboys began to run out the clock in the second half. The secondary also struggled to force turnovers in 2010, coming up with only nine interceptions, which was tied second-to-last in the conference. Now with projected starter Adam Hall out for up to seven months with an ACL injury, Walters’ job gets even more difficult. Even with the injury — which will force cornerback Robert Golden to slide over to safety — Walters sees the potential in his young group. “They love to work hard and they’re talented so I feel like they have a chance to do something special here at Arizona,” Walters said. But it isn’t just his players that are under the microscope. Walters is out to prove himself as a coach, and show that he wasn’t just a hire-bydefault after formerly-hired Duane Akina decided to head back to the University of Texas. He’s been on Arizona’s staff for less than seven months, and has zero coaching experience elsewhere. But Walters has the tools to revitalize Arizona’s secondary while making a name for himself, and if all goes as planned, he’ll be a Wildcat for years to come. “Any time you can get a program like this, it’s a great community, great staff,” Walters said. “I’m trying to stay here as long as I can.”

During the course of this year, sophomore Julie Labonte has established herself as one of the best shot putters in the country. The Quebec, Canada, native won the NCAA Indoor Championships last month and was named this week’s Pacific 10 Conference Women’s Field Athlete of the Week for her efforts at the Texas Relays. Labonte spoke with the Arizona Daily Wildcat about her season, why she chose Arizona and the differences between life in Canada and America. Daily Wildcat: You were named Pac-10 Field Athlete of the Week, tell me about how that feels. Julie Labonte: For sure. It’s amazing. It’s just been such a great season and I’m so happy. You’re the No. 1 shotputter in the country and top-10 internationally. Did you expect to have such dominant success this season? At first, I wasn’t expecting it. Practice before the season wasn’t that great so I wasn’t sure how the season would go. But once we started getting into meets I did well, and I’ve just been really happy with how everything’s gone. The Arizona women’s team is ranked No. 10 in the country. What’s been the key to its success? During practice we really push each other and we all want to do our

I bet your friends at home are pretty jealous of you right now. Yeah, of course (laughs). They’re always really jealous and comment on my Facebook page saying they wish they could come visit me. Better entertainment industry: America or Canada? I’ve never watched Canadian stuff, I always watched American movies and listened to the music here. I love Adam Sandler movies and romantic movies, too. Since you’re from Canada I assume you’ve seen the show “Degrassi.” Is high school in Canada as absurd as that show makes it out to be? (Laughs) No, it’s not really like that.

best. We have really good players, and we want to get to the national championship. Any pre-game routines or rituals? I always talk to my parents. They give me motivation and push me. What’s the most important part of the shot put technique? It’s all so important. If you miss one thing it won’t go as far, so you always have to think about pushing with your shoulders and placing your legs and stuff like that. Every detail is important. Why did you choose shot put over other events? I’ve always been really strong, so I wanted to try throwing instead of doing hurdles and distance and stuff like that. You’re from Canada, how did you end up at the UA? I visited a bunch of schools, but I really liked the UA program and their coaches and of course, I love the weather. Did you always plan on going to school in America? Yes. I left the national team (in Canada) because I knew there was big competition here and I wanted to try and experience that and get a degree. What’s the biggest difference between the two countries? The language, for sure. And the weather. There’s four feet of snow in my hometown right now.

ATHLETE OF THE WEEK Sophomore thrower By Tim Kosch ARIZONA DAILY WILDCAT

Braves 5, Marlins 0 Astros 11, Cubs 2 Nationals 7, Phillies 4

Arizona swimmers Cory Chitwood, Alyssa Anderson and Margo Geer all received Athlete of the Year awards for their respective classes at the UA athletic department’s C.A.T.S. Senior Awards Banquet, an esteem the Wildcat swimmers have always strived for. “It’s obviously a great honor to be picked as one of the best athletes in your class,” Chitwood said. “It’s totally fun to win awards like that and take a little piece of hardware that shows all your hard work here is paying off.” The Senior Awards Banquet takes into account all Arizona athletic teams, not just spring sports. While Chitwood acknowledges the notion of swim being one of the less popular college sports, he doesn’t harbor any bitter feelings. “Maybe it’s overlooked sometimes, I mean it’s understandable,” Chitwood said. “Every swimmer knows that swimming isn’t the most exciting sport. All of us love to watch football and basketball, and we know those are the sports that make the money.” He respects the more recognized athletes, and doesn’t swim for notoriety, but for the love of the sport. “Those guys are great and they deserve all the recognition that they get, and we’re definitely happy with the recognition we get. It’s definitely not the most glamorous of sports and we know that, but we love what we do.” Chitwood and Anderson, the captains for the men’s and women’s swimming and diving teams, respectively, both won the award for their junior class. As for Geer, she won the award for her freshman class. She is now the Female Freshman Student-Athlete of the Year.

Cory Chitwood

Just recently, at the men’s NCAA National Championships, Chitwood took home his second consecutive individual championship in the 200y backstroke. To make his 2011 championships even sweeter, Chitwood also earned All-America honors for the 200y individual medley, 100y backstroke, Cory Chitwood 800y freestyle relay and 400y medley relay. Chitwood also won the athletic department’s Junior Sophomore Athlete of the Year award last year. He’s now a two time national champion and a two-time athlete of the year. “I mean I was hoping to win again,” Chitwood said. “It felt great when they called my name.”

Alyssa Anderson

Anderson had an exceptionally strong season, reinforced by her five All-America honors at the women’s NCAA’s this year. She received these honors in the in the 200y freestyle, 500y freestyle, 200y butterfly, 400y freestyle relay and 800y freestyle relay. In accomplishing all of the above, she set a Alyssa Anderson school record in the 500y free, taking the title Junior away from former record holder Emily Mason. Anderson’s time of 4:34.34 in the event placed third in the NCAA’s and beat out Mason’s, 4:37.11.

Margo Geer

In her first season as a Wildcat, Geer earned six All-America honors at the NCAA’s. Deemed one of the fastest female sprinters in the nation, Geer received honors in the 50y freestyle, 100y freestyle, 200y free relay, 400y free relay, 800y free relay and 400y medley. Like Anderson, Geer also made a splash on the school records list. Geer now sits in the second spot for both the 50y and 100y freestyle records. At the NCAA’s, she placed third for both of the events.000000000000
