Fraternity council seeks control over greek standards By Eliza Molk ARIZONA DAILY WILDCAT The Interfraternity Council passed a resolution that would allow Councils of the Greek community to manage Greek Life’s Standards of Excellence. But the Panhellenic Council did not approve it due to concerns
about students evaluating one another. The Standards of Excellence are expectations to which all UA greek chapters are held to ensure they remain in good standing and are eligible for university awards, services and goods. Since 2008, all greek chapters must annually complete the
Chapter Assessment Tool, which identifies how the chapters have upheld the Standards of Excellence and provides appropriate documentation that the standards have been achieved. Currently, the Fraternity & Sorority Programs office controls the Standards of Excellence, and one staff person within the
AdWords campaign helps nonprofit
office evaluates all of the greek chapters based on the standards, according to Johanne Jensen, director of Fraternity & Sorority Programs. This is because having one individual evaluate all 49 chapters makes it easier for them to compare chapters

Lettuce weather model comes to a head By Jazmine Woodberry, ARIZONA DAILY WILDCAT
Southern Arizona, along with California, produces 90 percent of the United States’ winter vegetables, and now UA researchers are helping farmers double their harvesting potential with a new weather model. Called the Lettuce Ice Forecast System, the model’s objective is to deliver farmers and crop growers higher resolution forecasts with more precise satellite images, from a 12-kilometer scale to a 1-kilometer scale. This will replace a National Weather Service model from the 1980s. Paul Brown, a biometeorologist in soil, water and environmental sciences and director of the Arizona Meteorological Network, helped create the new model, which helps farmers work around nighttime freezing conditions when lettuce cannot be harvested. “It’s a next-generation forecast model,” Brown said. The project, funded by a two-year grant from the U.S. Department of Agriculture, utilizes an online 48-hour forecast that records any
fluctuation in temperatures not normally associated with the desert climate. Kurt Nolte, UA’s Cooperative Extension agriculture agent and director of the project in Yuma County, worked with Brown on the project. Brown’s expertise is vital to the project, according to Nolte, as this model can give farmers otherwise unavailable knowledge for where to place workers. This new model could then also create a lucrative public-private partnership in future years for the university to sustain, Brown said. Farmers are expected to take over the funding for the project after the two-year grant is done, he said. “What the Department of Atmospheric Sciences has done is adjust the model for Arizona conditions and make finer forecasts for spatial detail,” Brown said. “So we’d still be involved even after (the two-year project period). We’d operate the model out of the university because we have the modeling expertise and the computer systems to run this model at the university, and growing groups wouldn’t have access to
By John Kuells ARIZONA DAILY WILDCAT The Google MIS Eller Online Marketing Challenge Competition took place on Friday and the Flinnovation group came out on top for its work with the nonprofit group Casa de los Niños. Each year, Google puts on the Google Online Marketing Challenge, which partners groups of university students with companies. The groups utilize the Google program AdWords and a budget of $200 to help local businesses create effective online marketing campaigns. This was the first year Google included nonprofit businesses in the competition. “Normally people use AdWords just to increase revenue,” said team member Ravi Ram. “This year Google wanted to encourage people to work with nonprofits to see if their advertising could work in the sense that their company is … just helping them.” Ram, a sophomore studying biology and math, said the group came together out of a common interest in business and data analysis and was effective in helping Casa de los Niños. “We looked at a lot of the things

Students look to Take Back the Night that the event allows the university and the Tucson community to come together and take a stand against sexual violence while educating people about violence prevention. It also offers survivors a place to come and share their experiences and feel supported in doing so, according to Strange. The March of Solidarity begins at the Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Student Center at 5:30 p.m., and the resource fair, spotlight speakers, and survivor speak-outs conclude the event from 6:15 to 8 p.m. at the Women’s Plaza of Honor. The resource fair will allow participants to explore campus and community resources regarding sexual violence, and the survivor speak-outs will allow participants to honor victims and empower survivors.

Supreme Court refuses to skip lower courts on health-care reform law McClatchy Tribune WASHINGTON — The Supreme Court refused Monday to bypass the lower courts and take up an immediate challenge to the constitutionality of the national health-care reform law and its requirement that all those who can afford it have medical insurance by 2014. The announcement concerned only the timing of a decision on the health-care law and said nothing about how the court may finally rule. The justices rarely skip over the lower courts before taking up a constitutional question and have said they will do so only if a case is of such “imperative public importance” as to “require immediate determination” by the high court. The justices without comment turned down an appeal from Virginia’s attorney general,
who insisted the Affordable Care Act has “roiled America” and left employers and citizens “mired in uncertainty.” The court’s brief order apparently spoke for all the justices, since there was no indication that Justice Elena Kagan had recused herself. Some conservative activists have suggested that Kagan should not take part in the health-care case since she served as U.S. solicitor general before joining the court. The court’s action almost certainty puts off a ruling on the health-care law until at least next year. The attorneys general from more than half the states, nearly all of them Republican, filed lawsuits contending the mandate for individuals to have health insurance exceeded Congress’s power to regulate commerce. The main lawsuit was filed in Pensacola, Fla.
But on the day President Obama signed the healthcare bill into law, Kenneth Cuccinelli, Virginia’s attorney general, filed a separate suit in Richmond. He won before a federal district judge who declared the mandate to be unconstitutional. The Obama administration, as expected, filed an appeal, and the case is to be heard by the U.S. 4th Circuit Court of Appeals on May 10. A judge in Florida also declared the law unconstitutional, and an appeal of that decision will be heard by the U.S. 11th Circuit Court of Appeals in Atlanta. Usually, the losing side appeals, but Cuccinelli nonetheless petitioned the Supreme Court to take up his case before the 4th Circuit Court could rule. Obama administration
lawyers used the opportunity to set out a lengthy defense of the law. They said the market for healthcare services is quite unusual. The need for medical care is “essentially universal. ... Nearly everyone will require health services at some point in his or her lifetime,” but the need for “expensive medical care is unpredictable.” Federal law requires hospitals to provide emergency care for those in need, and in 2008, healthcare providers had to pay $43 billion to cover the cost of those who could not pay. The administration argues that the requirement to have health insurance will spread the costs to all those who can afford to pay. The administration’s lawyers also argued that Virginia had no standing to sue because the healthcare mandate applies to individuals, not the state.

Narrow definition of ‘rape’ undermines justice Kristina Bui Arizona Daily Wildcat
Y
our grandparents could be younger than the FBI’s idea of what constitutes “rape.” Since 1929, the FBI’s definition of rape for its annual Uniform Crime Report has been: “The carnal knowledge of a female, forcibly and against her will.” The FBI’s notion of rape is more than 80 years old, and it leaves thousands of victims of all sorts of crimes vulnerable to being uncounted. The definition of rape goes on to clarify that, “Attempts or assaults to commit rape by force or threat of force are also included; however, statutory rape (without force) and other sex offenses are excluded.” The FBI’s idea of rape is the only definition that exists at the federal level. And, although the FBI recognizes other acts as a form of sexual assault, rape is the only crime classified as a Part I offense in the Uniform Crime Report. Part I offenses are considered extremely serious, and are supposed to be more reliably reported than others. April 28 marks “Take Back the Night,” a national event held to shed light on sexual assault. There will be a solidarity march on the UA campus and a resource fair. But, while the UA and other college campuses take a stand against sexual violence, the FBI will continue to sit on an archaic definition of what qualifies as rape. Preliminary data for the FBI’s 2010 Uniform Crime Report suggests a decrease of 6.2 percent in the number of violent crimes that occurred in the first six months of 2010 compared to figures reported for the same time in 2009. Forcible rape is considered a violent crime, but given how limited the FBI’s definition of rape is, the numbers for violent crimes must be skewed. This is more than a little spat about vague language, or a disagreement about semantics. In February, critics of a House bill that aimed to restrict federal funding of abortions forced Republican backers to retreat from including the words “forcible rape,” calling it an attempt to redefine rape. But the FBI’s definition is nearly a century old, and relies on words like “forcibly.” It purposely omits forced anal or oral sex and rape with an object, and it assumes that men cannot be raped. For some police departments, including the word “forcibly” in this definition also excludes unconscious women, mentally or physically disabled women and women who were under the influence of drugs or alcohol. Are you less of a victim if you were dressed a certain way? If you were unconscious? If you’re male, or your attacker used an object against you? What happened to you wasn’t rape. It was just kind of rape. Rape-ish, really. At the beginning of April, Vice President Joe Biden addressed students and faculty at the University of New Hampshire about sexual violence. He described a college freshman who was raped at a party, and then asked if she’d been sober. “The student judicial panel said they didn’t find Jenny credible because she had been drinking. They decided her rapist was a nice kid and didn’t deserve the punishment under the circumstances,” Biden said. “Rape is rape,” Biden continued. If only other officials were as enlightened as he is. The idea that one who dresses suggestively or behaves provocatively asks to be violated, or the belief that only women can be raped is backwards and callous. But the fact that this attitude is only furthered by law enforcement agencies is even more disturbing. On Thursday, when the UA and college campuses across the rest of the nation observe “Take Back the Night,” we would do well to remember this: The responsibility of stopping sexual violence begins with one person and extends as far as the federal government. — Kristina Bui is the opinions editor for the Daily Wildcat.

Bored Border Patrol proves Republican rhetoric overblown Andrew Shepherd Arizona Daily Wildcat
R
emember during the election last year when Gov. Jan Brewer, Sen. Russell Pearce and a large number of other Republican candidates repeatedly stated that the federal government refused to do its job along the U.S./ Mexico border? How the border was a dangerous place inhabited by drug cartels and vicious human smugglers? Yes? Me too. Well, all one has to do is drive a little bit south of town to see how much the federal government has invested in border security over the past six years, and apparently it’s making a difference. So much so that some U.S. Border Patrol agents are starting to fall asleep on the job from boredom. According to the Los Angeles Times, apprehensions along the Tucson sector of the U.S./Mexico border, one of the busiest sectors of the border, dropped from 700,000 to just 100,000. Along the Southwest border, apprehensions dropped from 1.6 million to 448,000 be-
tween 2000 and 2010. In addition to the nation’s poor economy, this is largely due to the massive buildup of the Border Patrol over recent years. Along the Yuma sector, one of the slowest sectors of the border, the number of agents has tripled since 2005. There are now about 900 agents stationed in the area. However, this makes work pretty dull for the countless agents who signed up expecting something a little more interesting. The Times reported that agents stationed along certain parts of the border are so bored that, in addition to falling asleep on the job, some now play video games or watch movies to pass the time. This, while dangerous as even the slowest parts of the border could become active at any time, speaks to how overblown the rhetoric surrounding immigration has become. Some people on the right might claim that the reason why apprehensions are
so low is because of hardline immigration policies, like S.B. 1070. However, if this were true, then apprehensions wouldn’t have gone down in California, New Mexico or Texas. In fact, along the San Diego sector, apprehensions are at their lowest levels since the 1970s. The California Legislature certainly doesn’t have the same attitude toward immigration that the Arizona Legislature does, so this must have nothing to do with state policy. The fact is that the federal government is doing its job when it comes to securing the nation’s border. Border Patrol agents are now along all parts of the border and, due to the increased enforcement, are effectively deterring immigrants and smugglers from crossing the border. This proves even further that the rhetoric coming from this state’s politicians is not based in truth, but used only as a scare tactic to keep voters enthused. Of course, illegal immigration and the drug wars in Mexico cannot be ignored, but to claim that the state is in crisis due to a federal government that refuses to secure the border is just plain dishonest. — Andrew Shepherd is a political science senior.

Bear down and get down Johnny McKay Arizona Daily Wildcat
W
hen pondering the famous campus building that is Bear Down Gymnasium, a few things spring
to mind. First and foremost would of course be the large letters screaming “Bear Down” sprawled on its roof, because this was hammered into your skull during that unforgettably awkward tour guide performance on the BDG steps. If you’re a film buff, you might also recall that the gym was featured prominently in the cinematic milestone known as “Revenge of the Nerds,” housing the displaced geeks in their dire time of need. What won’t spring to mind, even as you think, “Why am I thinking about Bear Down Gym so much? Am I OK?” is the gym as a techno rave venue. That’s right. On May 3, the gym will be featured as an extremely unlikely spot for a “beats to the wall” Day-Glo techno madhouse production featuring the likes of Dada Life and Milkman. It’s easier to write opinions if you’re arguing against an on-campus travesty, but in this case, I cannot endorse this risky decision more. It’s a brilliant move, forgoing the more expensive and logistically complicated venues of Arizona Stadium and McKale Center. When trying to capture the raw power of electronic music, both of these would seem more tailored to fit. Kayne West brought down
McKale a few years ago with his impractical glasses and sick beats. The largely misguided Last Smash Platinum Bash was financially a major disaster, but I heard it was pretty fun if you were actually there (and hadn’t paid more than $5 for a ticket). Still, such large and obvious venues come with great challenges, indubitably. Manning enough security forces to keep out those wily college kids becomes a cause for a small army. College kids, by definition, have to attempt to break into a concert if it appears within a 5-mile radius. It’s in our blood, and even if the tickets are less than a drunken whirlwind adventure through a taco shop, we would rather enter through a utility shaft. The gym is unusually fortress-like, which is why it is obviously where we keep the mutated Wilbur Wildcat experiments from the 1920s (not intended to be a factual statement). It does lend itself well to security though, as well as a more streamlined approach to letting people in. In terms of artistic venue, the building seems even more perfect. Anyone who’s ever been to an awkward dance party in their college career knows that the secret is less space. Nothing’s worse than a warehouse with five people self-consciously gyrating inside. Put those same groove-challenged partygoers in a cramped hallway and they’ll shake it so hard that Ke$ha would be appalled.
Using this scientific formula, the gym is going to knock it out of the universe, packing amped up dancers into a relatively small rectangle and commanding them to get loose. When the bananas and champagne (Dada Life’s props of choice) start flying, I predict true electro-magic will transpire. And why stop there? There are so many untapped “alternative” venues to be had on the UA campus. Students love the pool: A daytime rock-a-thon where you tread water would be a huge hit. If you made it past the two opening bands you’d be a hardcore rocker and certified lifeguard. At Old Main, students could peruse their academic records while head-banging to hardcore metal, of course returning any personal probation reports at the end of the concert (part of the Satanic Honor System endorsed by the band). Finally, in an unprecedented move that would set the stage for campuses nationwide, we could host an earth-shattering U2like rock concert in Professor Estes’ 11:0012:15 Media Arts producing class. I’ve been researching this particular venue for roughly a semester now, and after evaluating acoustics and inherent rockability, I can’t think of a better venue for stadium rockers. I don’t need to explain any more why this is a brilliant and precedent setting idea, so tell your local Shelton about it as soon as possible. Let’s push for Thursday — it’s my group project and I’m pretty sure “the Foo Fighters’ set interrupted my third PowerPoint slide” is the only valid excuse left in college. — Johnny McKay is the multimedia editor for the Daily Wildcat.

The Interfraternity Council adopted a resolution that states the governing councils of the greek community, namely the Interfraternity Council, the Panhellenic Council, the United Sorority and Fraternity Council and the National Pan-Hellenic Council should control these standards.

While Otero said that this is a way to expand student involvement in the leadership and development of the greek community, Jensen said that the Panhellenic Council did not pass the resolution because the council disagreed with allowing chapters to evaluate other chapters. In addition, Jensen said that allowing councils of the greek community to manage the greek Standards of Excellence would violate the policy of the National Panhellenic Conference, a governing body of the UA’s
Panhellenic Council. This is because the national governing body states that women in certain sorority chapters are not allowed to rank women in other chapters. “If I’m a member of Pi Phi, I can’t evaluate someone in Alpha Phi,” Jensen said. “(The) Panhellenic council felt that this was a violation of their policy.” Jensen added that her office appreciates the Interfraternity Council’s move to allow students to have more “buy in” about the valued process of the standards, however, all councils must pass the resolution in order for control of these standards to move from the Fraternity & Sorority Programs office to the councils of the greek community.

Lonely marijuana found on 4/20
A bag of marijuana was found without an owner on April 20. At 12:44 p.m., a University of Arizona Police Department officer responded to Sky View Apartments. The desk assistant said that she received the small plastic bag from an anonymous resident who said they found it on the floor. The bag contained a green leafy substance that smelled like “freshly cultivated marijuana,” according to the officer. The marijuana was placed into UAPD property for destruction and no additional evidence was found on scene.
F*ck you very, very much
A non-UA affiliated man yelling profanities at a computer was asked to leave the ILC on April 20. At 7:25 p.m., a UAPD officer met with a library employee, in the Manuel T. Pacheco Integrated Learning Center. The employee told the officer that the man in question yelled, “Fuck you!” at his computer, causing other students and ILC patrons to feel uncomfortable. After being told to quiet down, the man left the area. The employee also told the officer that she did not have the authority to request that the man not be allowed back in the library, but said that she would speak to her manager. Shortly afterward, the officer located the disruptive man and told him to use the library in a manner that wasn’t disturbing to others. The officer also warned the man that if he were to create future incidents, UAPD would exclude him from the library or other parts of the UA campus. The man said he understood and left the area.
Thief could really use some change
A female UA student’s car was broken into on April 18. At around 2 p.m., the student returned to her car, parked in the Helen Street parking lot, and saw a man leaning against her car. As she approached, he walked away from the vehicle without noticing her. Because she did not initially notice anything missing or any damage to her vehicle, the student did not report the suspicious activity. However, upon further inspection that night, the student noticed a bag containing about $15-$20 in coins was missing from her vehicle. She reported the missing change to UAPD on April 19, the following day, at 12:14 p.m., but did not wish to prosecute the thief if caught.

Q Why does someone’s
face get red when they drink?
A. reaction or Asian flush, describes the body’s inability to
Simply said, a red face, otherwise known as alcohol flush
break down or metabolize alcohol completely. The science of it is that normally when a person drinks, the alcohol is first converted to acetaldehyde – a potentially toxic substance that gets converted into acetic acid to avoid harming the body. This triggers our body to release aldehyde dehydrogenase-2 (ALDH2) to break down the toxic acetaldehyde into carbon dioxide, water and fats which can then be processed. Then the carbon dioxide and water is removed by the body and the fats are absorbed. But some people are unable to break down acetaldehyde and it then accumulates in their system, causing flushing. Other symptoms can include nausea or vomiting, headache, dizziness, increased pulse and drowsiness. This occurs primarily in people of Asian descent (thus the name Asian flush) and Native Americans. Because it’s genetic, there isn’t much you can do to prevent a red face. People who have experienced this reaction often choose not to drink or drink very moderately. Basically, individuals can be protected against or predisposed to alcohol dependence by variations in the enzymes that metabolize alcohol. Alcohol abuse is also one of the causes of red face, particularly for fair-skinned people. Frequent drinking causes the blood vessels in the face and neck to dilate or expand thus increasing the blood circulation in the face. So don’t ask your red-faced friends to drink up. They’ll have much more fun without the extra shots.

NEWS ADWORDS continued from page 1 they do in terms of design processes that would help them increase awareness of what they do that would help them get more success than what they already have in place,” Ram said. Flinnovation is comprised of three students from the UA and three from Arizona State University, all interested in seeing the business advantages of an AdWords campaign. The group decided to partner with Casa de los Niños because of its strong mission statement, which vows to help children who are victims of child abuse. Flinnovation’s work with Google AdWords helped the nonprofit promote Night for Children, a program for which Casa de los Niños partnered with a local restaurants and held percentage nights to help raise funds. The student group’s work also helped Casa de los Niños gain a 250 percent increase in volunteer sign-ups online for a three-week period.
arizona daily wildcat • tuesday, april 26, 2011 • “Volunteer sign-ups was, I think, our biggest contribution to them,” said team member David Ware, a management information systems junior. In addition to this help, the group outlined what aspects of their business Casa de los Niños could work on in the future to be more successful, such as directing all marketing at a distinct audience. Sudha Ram, a management information systems professor, helped form the Flinnovation group and also had her students from a business intelligence course compete to help them better understand marketing issues. Cristie Street, a judge for the competition and managing partner for the business Nextrio, said that intelligence of Google AdWords is a critical tool that should be mastered by all students. “No matter what discipline … this will become a tool that you will have to master and understand in business,” Street said. Sudha Ram will offer a web and social media analytics class in the fall. The class will incorporate
elements similar to those learned in the Google AdWords competition and is open to students of all majors. “If anyone is looking for a major skill to add to their toolbox, whether they’re graduate or undergraduate they should come take this class,” Street said. “If I could have had all of my employees go through this class I would have. It’s that marketable of a tool.” On top of Flinnovation’s $450 prize, the group has its eyes on the top prize in the Google worldwide competition. A panel of academics from across the world will select the winning team based upon the group’s success in its campaign. The competition includes nearly 3,000 teams and the winning team will go to Google headquarters. Flinnovation is also vying for the Impact Award. The award is judged on the group’s effectiveness in working with its nonprofit organization. If Flinnovation wins the top prize, it will earn $15,000 for Casa de los Niños.
Lindsay Lohan to work as janitor for service hours MCCLATCHY TRIBUNE LOS ANGELES — Lindsay Lohan’s next role will involve a broom and mop. And no, she will not be playing Cinderella. The “Mean Girls” actress will soon be starring as a janitor at the Los Angeles County coroner’s office thanks to a judge’s decision last week to sentence her to 120 hours at the county morgue as part of a probation violation sentence for an alleged jewelry theft. Judge Stephanie Sautner on Friday sentenced Lohan to 120 days in jail and 480 hours of community service, including 360 hours at the downtown Women’s Center on skid row and 120 hours at the Mission Road coroner’s office. The judge ruled that Lohan violated the terms of her 2007 probation for drunken driving by wearing a gold chain as she left a Venice, Calif., jewelry store in January and failing to return it until she learned that detectives were preparing to
serve a search warrant. While Lohan is appealing Sautner’s ruling, the judge said she must start the community service hours within a week. The actress has a year to complete the rquired hours. “We have community service workers all the time,” said Assistant Chief Ed Winter of the coroner’s office. “They do janitorial tasks. They clean up and sweep up.” Lohan will be treated like any other community service worker assigned to the office by the courts, Winter said. Lohan bailed out of jail Friday within five hours of getting the 120-day jail term. Sautner also reduced a felony grand theft case related to a Jan. 22 necklace theft to a misdemeanor. Sautner is the third judge to handle Lohan in the last four years. Another judge agreed last September that Lohan should stay at the Betty Ford Center rehabilitation facility for three months instead of going to jail.

Giffords’ return to public arena sparks talk about her political future MCCLATCHY TRIBUNE

WASHINGTON — Rep. Gabrielle Giffords plans to attend the launch of the space shuttle Endeavour on Friday — a re-entry into the public sphere that will likely kick off a fresh round of speculation about the Arizona Democrat’s political future. Giffords now can speak in short sentences — longer ones frustrate her — and writes left-handed, according to a new report on the progress she has made since she was grievously wounded by a gunman in January. An article in the Arizona Republic says that although the brain-injured congresswoman remains in a wheelchair, she can stand on her own and is slowly relearning to walk. Her doctors place her in the top 5 percent of rehabilitating patients who have suffered similar injuries. Doctors say there is little risk in her flying to Florida to witness the shuttle launch, even though a piece of her skull remains missing. The mission is to be commanded by her husband, Mark Kelly, and President Barack Obama and his family are expected to attend. Giffords is not expected to make a public statement at the launch — and it’s possible she will go unphotographed. The Democratic Party has been busily filling slots with recruits for the major Senate races in the 2012 campaign. In recent weeks, Reps. Shelley Berkley and Martin Heinrich came on board in neighboring Nevada and New Mexico, respectively. But no Democrat in Arizona has stepped forward to seek the nomination for the Senate seat there left open by Sen. Jon Kyl’s retirement, a testament to Giffords’ perceived electoral strength should she recover sufficiently to mount a Senate bid. Speaking to reporters earlier this month, Sen. Patty Murray of Washington, chair of the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee, said Democrats have hope of taking the seat in the wake of Giffords’ shooting and suggested that the race is being left open in the event Giffords decides to make a run.
“None of us can predict what Congresswoman Giffords will do and we are giving her and her family all due respect to recover from a very serious trauma, and that’s where we should be,” Murray said. “But what happened to Gabby Giffords changed the political landscape of Arizona. And I know that we will have a Democratic candidate there.” But the prospect of a Senate run still feels very far away. Much of Giffords’ rehabilitation centers on her regaining the use of her right arm and leg; Giffords was shot in the left side of the brain. The report said that she longs to leave the Houston facility where she has been rehabilitating. The article contradicts the popular belief that Giffords’ first words were “toast.” Instead, the newspaper says, they may have been “thank you” to her husband. Giffords’ chief of staff, Pia Carusone, said in the Arizona Republic article that a fuller understanding of the congresswoman’s condition might not come until Christmas. “It’s unfair to set expectations on her in any way,” Carusone said. “We all want the best. We want her to make the best recovery. Would a triumphant return be amazing? Yes. But first of all, her close friends and family will take anything.” Giffords’ staff has been running her congressional office in her absence, but the article suggested that the congresswoman is eager to begin working. Obama recently penned a tribute to Giffords in Time magazine, which named her as one of its 100 Most Influential People. Giffords, the president wrote, “embodies the best of what public service should be: hard work and fair play, hope and resilience, a willingness to listen and a determination to do your best in a busy world.” Washington being what it is, Obama’s praise was eventually sent out in a release by Giffords’ congressional campaign, suggesting that the congresswoman and her staff are keeping her political options open.

FeelGood club member How does it feel to be a human sandwich? Well, it is kind of empowering. Definitely getting attention from people … which is what we are out here to do, to raise awareness, raise money for chronic and persistent hunger. We are out here once a week making fresh sandwiches. Who doesn’t love a grilled cheese? We are trying to end world hunger one grilled cheese at a time. What is your favorite sandwich? I’m an everything type of person. I like the avocado, tomato, the onion and the fresh cheddar cheese. What is something that the FeelGood club does? I need that. Anyone can join. We are looking for really enthusiastic people that want to change the world, one thing at a time. This is our main vehicle, but we also did a 5k hunger run earlier in the spring. What is something that you personally do to make yourself feel good? I would say just educating people and raising awareness. There’s hungry people out there and there is something that somebody can do about it. In honor of the royal wedding on Friday, who is your own Prince Charming? I would say, well, my boyfriend in Oklahoma. Have you seen “Oklahoma!” the musical? You will have to rent it when he comes in town. OK, we will have to do that.

Mongolian death worm: Legendary desert killer Mongolia, a land of mystery. Where the grave of great warrior king Genghis Khan, who created an empire stretching from the Baltic and Black to the Bering seas, remains undiscovered. Where the national dish has become Mongolian barbecue, the stir-fry buffet variety invented in the United States. And where giant, scarlet worms burrow in the barren expanse of one of the world’s largest, coldest deserts, spewing fiery acid and electrocuting unlucky camels from

Yes, a creature so fearsomely odd that its name — which also happens to be the title of a cheesy Syfy Channel/Lions Gate DVD release set for April 26 — deserves the honor of its own paragraph: The Mongolian Death Worm. Just as intrepid explorers still search for Genghis Khan’s grave, reality-TV crews still anxiously seek the sausage-like, homicidal pseudo-penis dentata dubbed the olgoi-khorkhoi, or the “intestine

This announcement was a significant step toward gaining the finances for the project, which is estimated to cost around $72.3 million. Byrne displayed three pictures of the planned exterior layout. He also said the expansion will include a weight room, medical treatment center, locker room, coaches office and multipurpose cafeteria area

As for seating, the plan is to have a club area, club seating and a private club area for some supporters. Instead of metal bleachers, the initial plan is to have actual seats, but that has not been finalized. The stadium’s concessions and restrooms will also be improved, “which is something we always hear about on game day,” Byrne said. Going forward, Byrne said he’s optimistic the project can come to fruition. “If approved, our plan would be to break ground in January after the season is over. There would be a 15-18 month construction,” Byrne said.

Golembiewski founded the Icecats in 1979 as an independent corporation with zero affiliation to the UA. But both the players and the UA felt it was time for the team to have more affiliation with the university. “Before, we just didn’t really feel like we were that much of a part of the university,” Slugocki said. “(The university) wants to help us out. They’re willing to do whatever we need to make us a successful hockey team. And how can you say no to that? ” Slugocki, Lefferts and a few other players approached Campus Recreation and
Associate Vice President of Student Affairs Frank Farias just over two months ago about the change, but Lefferts said the university had been looking into this transition for “a little over a year.” Now that it’s official, Golembiewski’s 32-year reign as head coach is over, and Arizona Wildcat Ice Hockey has a new look. The Wildcats will sport new uniforms that can include the Arizona’s block “A.” The Wildcats will also have more funding to schedule road trips and bring in more competitive teams. Slugocki said they have a chance to “go to nationals every year now.” The team still has to go out and find corporate spon-
sors, but Lefferts said funding “won’t be an issue.” Slugocki also added that he’s “95 percent sure” the convention center will still be permitted to sell beer at games . The Wildcats will move on from Golembiewski, who fell out of favor toward the end of his coaching career. Both Lefferts and Slugocki said they were thankful for their time with Golembiewski, but they’re ready to turn to a new chapter. “We appreciate everything that he’s done for this program,” Lefferts said. “We’re all just excited to see where it progresses.” According to Slugocki, they are interviewing a wide range of coaches and should reach their final decision in the next two weeks.

Softball takes ‘pitch by committee’ approach By Nicole Dimtsios ARIZONA DAILY WILDCAT The Arizona softball team had to define the term “pitcher” loosely last weekend against ASU. Due to pitcher Kenzie Fowler’s concussion, head coach Mike Candrea was forced to use three position players in the circle to supplement freshman pitcher Shelby Babcock. With no news about when Fowler will be back, the Wildcats’ “bullpen” is preparing for the possibility of having to pitch again against Oregon this weekend. Brittany Lastrapes, Baillie Kirker and Victoria Kemp all made their first appearances in the circle, and

adapted to the unusual territory. “We were just trying to mix things up,” Candrea said of the strategy against ASU on Saturday. “Victoria (Kemp) keeps the ball down pretty well. And we bring in Baillie (Kirker) that has some offstuff. Then we bring in the slow person in (Brittany) Lastrapes and then follow her with (Shelby) Babcock, hopefully to gain a couple miles per hour on her pitches.” The three “pitchers” gave up eight hits and four walks in 5.2 innings. Here’s the reaction from Arizona’s three position players that pitched this weekend and how they’ll prepare for the possibility of pitching next weekend.
The last time Kirker pitched, she was a freshman in high school. She threw two games before switching to first base for the rest of her career. She proved to be Arizona’s most effective “pitcher,” giving up just three hits and no runs.
How she felt about pitching:
“It’s still rocky. It’s shaky when you don’t have pitches and you really haven’t worked on it and you’re just thrown out there.”
Next week’s outlook:
“We need to work on it. We better get back out there. We need to get some pitches. We only have one or two, so we need to get three or four and throw them off a little bit more.”
Although she picked up the loss on Saturday, Kemp only gave up three runs in the 8-3 loss. She threw two innings but proved effective after giving up a three-run home run to Krista Donnenwirth. It was her first experience pitching since she was 14 years old. “I did the best I could, so can’t ask for anything more,” Kemp said.
The senior threw 42 pitches, 20 of which were strikes. Lastrapes was the third “pitcher” used on Saturday and threw 1.2 innings. She threw very slowly compared to Babcock and gave up five runs at a critical point in the 8-3 loss. She said she hadn’t pitched since she was 10 years old, but called the experience “very different, but fun.”
“I was actually really nervous at first because I thought it was just in case something happened.”
“It’s definitely different being so close to everyone and being on the dirt. Everything is so right here. It’s different, but it was an experience.”
How she felt about pitching:
Next week’s outlook:
“This week we need to get some pitches going and we’ll be good, so work on it this week.”
How she felt about pitching:
Next week’s outlook:
“I’ll just try to stay calm. I think if I think about it too much, it’s out of the norm.”

Leo officially out as hockey coach By Mike Schmitz ARIZONA DAILY WILDCAT After more than a week of deliberation, it’s finally official — a new era of Arizona club hockey will hit the Tucson Convention Center ice next season. It was announced via press release on Monday afternoon that the team formerly known as the Icecats will partner with UA Campus Recreation to become a traditional club team
now known as Arizona Wildcat Ice Hockey. “It feels good,” said team president and forward Brian Slugocki. “Everyone knows the work we’ve been putting in. It’s kind of hard to put in words.” “We’re all really excited about next year,” added forward Brady Lefferts. “I can’t wait to get back on the ice.” Former head coach Leo HOCKEY, page 13

COMMENTARY BY Alex Williams sports writer
Arizona’s baseball game with No. 8 ASU today doesn’t matter in the Pacific 10 Conference standings. But while the Wildcats won’t gain or lose a game, tonight is a must-win for the team’s confidence. Arizona was expected to make a run at its first trip to Omaha, Neb., and the College World Series since 2004, but now the Wildcats will most likely have to go on the road against a top seed — making a daunting task seem almost impossible. But despite its recent struggles, Arizona has a chance to turn the season around and make an improbable run. The talent is there, the coaching
is there and the will to win is there. Today’s game is almost more important than a conference game. The Wildcats need answers — ones that lead to wins in the games that count — and this is their last chance to find them before taking on Southern California in a pivotal conference showdown. Those answers need to start coming from the bullpen, which has transformed from being a not-sosure-thing to a full-blown liability. Even blessed with all the talent in the world, Bryce Bandilla can’t seem to put together back-to-back promising outings, moving Matt Chaffee to the closer role and opening the door for Arizona’s younger arms to get a shot. Head coach Andy Lopez isn’t a fan of relying on freshman arms in Pac10 play, but that’s what’s going to have to happen for Arizona to have any chance at running a reliable bullpen out onto the mound each game.
The bullpen isn’t the only glaring problem with this Arizona team. Its offense has been inconsistent — scoring 18 runs in the opener against Oregon State ace Sam Gaviglio, then scoring four runs in each of the next two games in the series. Today’s game doesn’t matter in the standings, and win or lose, the outcome won’t determine the rest of the season. If Arizona’s offense doesn’t produce or the bullpen costs the Wildcats another game, it will just be another brick in the wall. — Alex Williams is a journalism sophomore.

IF YOU GO Arizona vs. ASU Sancet Stadium Today, 6 p.m.
Arizona men’s basketball freshman Daniel Bejarano announced he would transfer from Arizona following this academic year. He has yet to decide on his destination. The 6-foot-4, 208-pound guard appeared in eight games and registered 0.8 points and 0.5 rebounds per game in 3.8 minutes averaged. “After a number of conversations with coach Miller and my family, I have decided to pursue my goals at another institution,” Bejarano said through a statement from the athletic department. “This is a decision I made with careful thought and with much help. My desire to have a more prominent role on the court significantly impacted my decision.” The four-star recruit out of Phoenix’s North High School committed to the Wildcats following a decommitment from the Texas Longhorns, a
decision aided by the death of his father. He chose Arizona after ASU decided to end its pursuit of Bejarano, who led the North team to two consecutive state titles with current Arizona teammate Robert Arvizu. “Daniel (Bejarano) is a great kid and teammate,” head coach Sean Miller said in a statement. “He had a positive impact on this year’s team because of his consistent work ethic and winning attitude. All of us here at Arizona wish him the very best in his future endeavors.” In his eight appearances, Bejarano went 1-for-8 from the field and 3-for-4 from the foul line. His career high of three points came in a Nov. 14 game against Idaho State and a Nov. 21 game versus Northern Colorado. Miller added that Bejarano will continue to work out with the team in its spring conditioning and skill practices.
New donors announced in end zone project By Zack Rosenblatt ARIZONA DAILY WILDCAT Arizona athletic director Greg Byrne met with the media on Monday to announce additional donations for the North End Zone project at Arizona Stadium. The athletic department received three significant donations that will help in the development of these renovations. “This is a very exciting day for our athletic department across the board,” Byrne said. The project received three separate

donations, the first one for $11 million from a family that requested to remain anonymous. Byrne described the family as longtime supporters of the University, and its donation is the second largest gift in the history of the Arizona athletic department. Jeff Stevens, who was sitting next to Byrne throughout the press conference, and his wife increased their donation by $2 million, up to a total of $12 million. The third donation came from wellknown Tucson businessman Jim Click, who pledged $2.5 million to the project.
According to Byrne, these gifts will bring the total for the project up to $25.5 million. Other commitments and donations push that total closer to $27 million, and the department is confident that they will be able to reach $30 million soon. After thanking numerous contributors, including UA President Robert Shelton, Byrne continued to describe the importance the North End Zone Project will have on the UA. “The North End Zone Project will BYRNE, page 13
