FIJI man found dead in chapter house By Alexander Vega ARIZONA DAILY WILDCAT A sophomore member of the Phi Gamma Delta fraternity was found dead around 9 a.m., on Saturday. According to the University of Arizona Police Department, someone at the fraternity made a call for medical assistance to UAPD at 8:59 a.m. UAPD officers and Tucson Fire Department personnel responded to the fraternity house. Wilson Forrester, from Nashville, Tenn., was pronounced dead by Tucson Fire Department.

According to police, there was no indication of foul play or an on-going threat to the community. UAPD detectives are investigating the cause of death. Johanne Jensen, assistant dean of students, urged members of Greek life to not spread rumors on the situation and not to talk to media in an email sent to greek presidents. “Please remind your members … to only state the facts regarding this sad situation,” Jensen wrote. “The best support you can offer (Phi Gamma Delta) is to not circulate rumors or create Facebook

Mourn the loss By Michelle A. Monroe ARIZONA DAILY WILDCAT

A member of the Phi Gamma Delta fraternity died this weekend and police are investigating the cause of death, though no foul play is suspected. It’s times like these, before jumping to conclusions or making off-color jokes about fraternities, that it’s important to remember the severity of what happened. A student at this university died. Wilson Forrester was a pre-physiology sophomore from Nashville, Tenn. He was a member of Phi Gamma Delta, a brother, a son, and a friend to many. His cause of death is unknown, but his life should be remembered. I didn’t know him. With 39,000 students at the UA, it’s impossible to know every one. But each of us has a bond by just being Wildcats. I’ve gotten a hysterical phone call at 2 a.m. from a fraternity member crying over a drunk driver who hit his brother. I’ve talked with the somber mother of a deceased UA student who died in a single-car accident. I didn’t know them, but not knowing is not the same as not caring. Sometimes people simply need a shoulder to cry on, arms to hold them, or a quiet listener. Two years ago, a member of Phi Kappa Psi fraternity died and rumors circulated. His friends, family, and fraternity brothers had to not only endure the loss of a friend and a son, but the stinging words and judgment of misinformed people. Phi Kappa Psi member Andrew J. Segal died from natural causes, but the report wasn’t released until the next month. Those are weeks in which mourning and grieving was tainted with accusations. Let’s hope that this time, the cause of death is not what people focus on. If you knew Wilson Forrester, my thoughts are with you. If you did not, I hope you will treat this tragedy on our campus with the respect it deserves. Whatever your thoughts on fraternities or college parties, I hope you care about the loss of a fellow student. I hope you care about the hundreds of students grieving. I hope you care about the family that has to travel to Arizona to say goodbye to their son. I hope you care about Wilson Forrester.

A Facebook group titled “In Memory of Wilson Waters Forrester” was created on Saturday. “This group is dedicated to the wonderful memories of our dear friend, son and brother Wilson Forrester. He passed away peacefully Saturday, April 2nd and he will be remembered in our hearts as the incredible guy he was. Please feel free to share your memoires you have with him. I will update everyone as our Family

UMC ranks No. 1 in Tucson By Michelle Weiss ARIZONA DAILY WILDCAT

University Medical Center has been ranked number one in Tucson for best hospitals in the metro area. U.S. News and World Report made rankings that recognize 622 highperformance hospitals in or near major cities , according to a press release on March 29. There are almost 5,000 hospitals nationwide. “Tucson is blessed,” said Kevin Burns , the CEO at UMC. “We have a great health care system here. We have a number of excellent providers.” At this time, U.S. News and World Report is not submitting the details of the 12 specialties that were looked at for the rankings, Burns said. “Typically what they’re looking at is reputational quality,” he said. “They look to see which hospitals have a certain number of specialties that are very highly rated compared to their cares around the community and around the country.” Burns said he thinks part of the reason UMC was ranked number one is because of the hospital’s number of highly rated specialties. UMC is the number-one trauma center

There are about 350 residents being taught to become doctors between the UA and University Physicians

Hospital at Kino , Burns said. U.S. News and World Report probably also looks at the quality of outcomes information, such as mortality rates, he said. “I think we have a really good team of nurses, doctors and staff. They’re very focused on providing the highest quality care,” Burns said. “Quality is always out in the forefront for us when we think of the strategies for organizational excellence.” The patients are always a

primary concern and there are some services that UMC provides that are not offered at other hospitals in the area, he said. For example, UMC offers comprehensive transplant services. “We have really strong doctors throughout the hospital by reputation,” Burns said. “We have a comprehensive system to provide health care here, and I think that’s part of what makes us so special.”

Best-selling author calls for more misfits By John Kuells Arizona Daily Wildcat

Best-selling author, Dr. Cornel West, addressed a near-capacity crowd in Centennial Hall on Friday as part of the “Who Draws the Line? Social Justice Perspectives on Diversity” series. West, a Princeton professor who gained national attention for his analytical look at racism in his book “Race Matters,” was given a standing ovation from the crowd for his speech. West spoke on a variety of topics and focused on what is hindering racism, discrimination, and poverty from declining in modern American culture. “Too many citizens and humans

and students don’t want to be courageous,” West said. “… They just want to make money. They just want contentment and convenience.” West went on to say that America is living in a “culture that specializes in weapons of mass distraction” and urged the audience to find courage to challenge the status quo and to face social issues, such as biases and prejudices, head on. West also said that the “warped priorities” of the nation, such as the dangers of falling for materialistic and superficial values, such as greed and instant gratification, are resulting in an indifference toward social justice that leads to “empty souls and

spiritual malnutrition.” “No healthy society … can survive without having a significant slice of their fellow citizens willing to be courageous, to cut against the grain and not to fit in,” West said. “We need more misfits.” West also commended the UA for educating its students and not “schooling” them, which he noted was all the more important because young people are “100 percent of the future.” “Education is wrestling with what it means to be human. It’s trying to get us to engage in that shift, that turning of the soul from the superficial to the substantial, from the frivolous to the serious,” West said.

West also called upon a younger generation of students to focus on higher levels of thinking and avoid temptations and distractions. “No high quality human life can flower and flourish without the courage to think critically,” West said. Navneet Khera, a prephysiology freshman, said she found West’s speech inspiring. “He was extremely inspirational, the way he talked about race and diversity so openly. You don’t really hear this often. It was nice to here a different output.” Jai Smith, a sociology senior and co-director of ASUA’s Pride Alliance, said West’s words resonated with him. “It was interesting to me because

Gay sailor: Navy panel says he can stay McClatchy Tribune FRESNO, Calif. — A gay sailor at Lemoore Naval Air Station said a Navy panel apparently agreed with his lawyer ’s argument that “don’t ask, don’t tell” is dead. Petty Officer 2nd Class Derek Morado, 26, said he was “ecstatic” after the administrative panel’s unanimous vote Thursday not to recommend his discharge from the Navy. Lt. Alana Garas, a Navy spokeswoman at the Pentagon, said the panel’s vote would not be made public under federal privacy laws. The last time a service member was discharged for being gay was in November, the Pentagon said. A gay rights group that publicized Morado’s case said the panel’s vote sets a precedent for the rest of the military. “The best part is, he doesn’t have to have this dark shadow over his head,” said Robin McGehee of Fresno, a

director of GetEQUAL. The three-member panel of two officers and a senior petty officer met for several hours to hear arguments and evidence, then held a closed-door meeting for 25 minutes before announcing their unanimous vote, Morado said. Although happy with the vote, Morado said he “was a little bit surprised,” largely because military personnel typically support existing policy. The Navy Personnel Command will now review the panel’s decision, but Morado said his lawyer assured him the command can’t reverse the decision and is unlikely to return it for further review. If the panel had recommended discharging Morado, the decision would have required approval by the secretary of the Navy. Morado, trained in bomb assembly and storage, said he was given other duties on base after being outed. He was

I work in the social justice arena,” Smith said. “To hear so many perspectives that I had never experienced before was really awesome to me as an individual for the work that I do.” Smith, one of roughly 300 volunteers at the event, said that social justice commentary is not uncommon, but was impressed with the way West captivated an entire audience. “We are constantly discussing in an academic setting these sort of border policies, immigration rights and humanitarian rights,” Smith said. “To actually talk about it in a really raw and emotional manner doesn’t happen a lot. To have a speaker come in and do that was really powerful.”

Despite the repeal of “don’t ask, don’t tell,” Derek Morado, a gay sailor stationed at Lemoore Naval Air Station, underwent a hearing regarding his potential discharge from the military after which the panel unanimously voted to not recommend discharge.

to leave Friday for a new assignment in San Diego. Under the “don’t ask, don’t tell” policy, the military could not discriminate against gay men and lesbians who remained in the closet but could discharge anyone who is openly gay. Morado, who attended

a Sacramento high school, said he knew he had to hide his homosexuality when he enlisted in 2003. But Morado was written up for misconduct in 2009 after another sailor saw a photo of him kissing a man that was posted on his MySpace page. Late last year, President Barack Obama signed into law a repeal of the controversial policy, but it has yet to

take effect. But the new law gave his Navy lawyer a winning argument, Morado said. “Our angle was that the upcoming repeal of ‘don’t ask, don’t tell’ is putting the old policy out the door soon,” he said. No date has been set for the repeal to go into effect, but the branches are undergoing training in the new policy, military officials said.

Southwest cancels 300 flights in The Arizona Daily Wildcat Monday wake of fuselage incident

Mega Marketplace

McClatchy Newspapers Southwest Airlines grounded 79 of its Boeing 737 aircraft Saturday after a harrowing incident in which a hole tore open in the fuselage of a flight bound for Sacramento and depressurized the cabin. Southwest spokeswoman Brandy King said the company canceled 300 flights across the country so Boeing engineers could help conduct emergency inspections on the aircraft. Investigators from the National Transportation Safety Board and the Federal Aviation Administration were still trying to determine what caused the fuselage to rupture on Flight 812 from Phoenix to Sacramento on Friday afternoon. The aircraft, which contained 118 passengers, safely made an emergency landing in Yuma, Ariz. Passengers described a terrifying and chaotic scene. Some reported hearing a noise like a small explosion or gunshot before the cabin lost pressure. While the aircraft’s breathing masks were deployed, some occupants lost consciousness. One flight attendant and one passenger were treated for minor injuries, according to the airlines. Saturday’s cancellations were felt throughout the airlines network, and it was unclear when the grounded planes would be returned to service. At least 13 flights scheduled to depart from Los Angeles International Airport were canceled Saturday afternoon, including flights bound for San Francisco, Phoenix, Denver, Tucson, Ariz., Albuquerque, N.M., and Las Vegas. Rita Aguilar-Cayo, 58, was among the scores of Southwest passengers at Los Angeles International awaiting word on their flights’ statuses Saturday.

Emir Pekdemir, left, and Eduardo Auset, center, wait with classmates after hearing their flight to Chicago, Ill., was cancelled on Saturday at Oakland Airport in Oakland, Calif. The pair are with a group of students at Illinois Institute of Technology. Southwest Airlines grounded 79 planes after a rupture appeared in a jet’s fuselage.

“I just arrived on a national flight from Tahiti and now I’m going home, and I really, really want to get there,” Cayo said. “But I’m starting to feel pretty insecure.” Standing behind Cayo were 19 missionaries of various ages from Victory Christian Academy in Valparaiso, Ind. The group, dressed in identical orange T-shirts, were returning home from a year in Los Angeles. Group member Deanna Abner, 48, said they were unaware of Friday’s incident until they got in line to check their luggage Saturday. Asked whether she was worried, Abner shrugged. “God is in control. We don’t worry about it,” she said. “The worst that can happen is that we all go to heaven.” Officials said the inspections could last for several days and that they were looking for any indications that other planes were suffering from “aircraft skin fatigue.” Southwest has had problems with fuselages

tearing in the past. In 2009, a foot-long hole opened in the top of a jet while it was cruising at 30,000 feet, forcing an emergency landing in West Virginia. That same year, the airline was fined $7.5 million by the FAA for nearly 60,000 flights in which the planes had not undergone required inspections for fuselage cracks. “Given Southwest’s history, this raises a real concern,” said Jim Hall, a transportation consultant. “Everyone knows they pound those airplanes hard.” The structural integrity of aging airline fleets has been an issue since 1988 when cracks caused the roof of an Aloha Airlines Boeing 737 to peel away while on its way to Honolulu. A flight attendant was sucked out of the depressurized craft, and dozens of passengers were injured. The incident led to stricter inspection regulations, but through the years a number of airlines have had incidents where weakened fuselages tore apart in midair.

The FAA earlier this year implemented new rules requiring additional structural inspections of Boeing 757 and 737 aircraft. The agency rejected Southwest’s request for more time to complete inspections, which the company said would require “out-ofsequence maintenance” that would cause “a significant burden.” Southwest’s fleet of 548 aircraft is made up of Boeing 737s; the one that tore open Friday was 15 years old, according to FAA records. Hall said commercial aircraft used more for short-haul flights common throughout Southwest’s flight schedule are more prone to structural stress than long-haul aircraft. “They get pressurized and depressurized on a more frequent basis,” he said. According to the airline’s website, the Southwest fleet has an average age of slightly more than 11 years. Each plane flies an average of six flights a day; the average trip is 648 miles and nearly two hours long.

Republicans to propose big changes to Medicare, Medicaid McClatchy Newspapers WASHINGTON — House Republicans’ 2012 federal budget proposal will include significant changes to Medicare, shift control of Medicaid to the states and aim to chop more than $4 trillion from the deficit over the next decade, House Budget Committee Chairman Paul Ryan said Sunday. Ryan’s broad overview of the plan, which is to be announced on Tuesday, included a combination of entitlement changes and spending cuts that amount to a significantly different approach to deficit and debt reduction than that advocated by President Barack Obama. Obama’s plan, proposed in February, would cut $1.1 trillion from the deficit over 10 years through a combination of increased revenues and targeted budget cuts. He did not suggest structural changes to the nation’s social safety-net programs — Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid. Republicans said that plan ignored the primary drivers of the escalating debt and deficits, as well as the solutions proposed by a commission Obama appointed to draft a deficit-reduction plan. In contrast, the Republican

budget would change entitlement programs as recommended by the commission. The proposal would rework Medicare by offering seniors a choice of private plans and restructure Medicaid funding into block grants distributed to the states, while apparently leaving Social Security unchanged, Ryan said. The changes would not affect current recipients of Medicare, he said. The Wisconsin Republican declined to offer savings estimates, but said the plan would go further than the commission’s recommendations, which proposed nearly $4 trillion in deficit reduction through 2020. “We believe in exceeding the goals put out by the president’s debt commission,” he said in an interview on “Fox News Sunday.” The commission’s plan was rejected by both Democrats, who said it cut too much, and some Republicans, who would not sign on to its call to increase government revenues. Ryan said the House Republican plan would call for “pro-growth tax reform,” although he was not specific. He indicated the plan included lower tax rates. The proposal comes as House Republicans are already battling

Persian and Mediterrenean Grill

the Democratic-led Senate over federal spending levels. Having failed to pass a 2011 budget while Democrats were in control of both chambers, lawmakers now are locked in a fight over how to fund the government for the current fiscal year. Federal budget authority expires on Friday, leaving the threat of government shutdown looming over discussions. That fight involves a tussle over peanuts — tens of billions of dollars — compared with the reductions outlined in the budget bill. Ryan acknowledged the Republican plan was landing in an already bitter and divided political environment. “Whether it’s dead on arrival, I don’t know, but where the president has failed to lead we’re going to fix this problem,” he said. Republicans hope their plan will shape the debate not only in Congress but also in the political contests of the 2012 campaign, in which Republicans will cast themselves as offering a more “serious” solution to the deficit and taking political risks. “We are giving Democrats a political weapon against us, but look, they’re going to have to lie and demagogue,” Ryan said. “Shame on them if they do that.”

EDITORIAL ASUA elections demonstrate willful disrespect for constituents The Associated Students of the University of Arizona presidential election has inexplicably dragged on for so long that we’ve almost lost track of how much time has passed since we began. For the record, it’s been 26 days since the night the general election results were announced. That’s 26 days of hanging out, waiting around, listening to ASUA Elections Commissioner Michael Colletti defend the integrity of his precious Elections Code. Meanwhile, presidential candidates James Allen and Daniel Hernandez floundered in the wake of the announcement of their disqualifications. Finally, after several days of speculation, the ASUA Supreme Court weighed appeals filed by Allen and Hernandez. The court overturned enough violation checks for both candidates that they each qualified for office under the court’s decision. It could have been over then. Then Colletti chose to disregard the court’s ruling on Allen’s case, with the unsatisfactory excuse that his violations were so “severely detrimental” to the election process that Allen had to be disqualified regardless of the number of violation checks against him. ASUA declared it would hold a special election. It could have been over then, too. Allen, who had previously told the Daily Wildcat he would not seek an appeal if Colletti disqualified him again, decided to appeal after all. This stalls the special election, and everyone gets to look forward to more debate about ASUA’s flawed Elections Code. This is stupid. The “ethics” governing ASUA’s elections desperately need revamping, and there’s no need for a second appeal by Allen to demonstrate that. Colletti’s decision to uphold Allen’s disqualification was a sharp slap to voters, the very few students who even kind of cared. Hernandez lost by more than half, with 1,004 votes to Allen’s 2,009. Constituents wanted Allen for ASUA president. By disregarding both the court and the votes, Colletti willfully ignored the whole point of the election process. If voters have to wait another month, will many of them change their minds? Maybe. Perhaps knowing about Allen’s Elections Code violations tainted their opinion of him. Or maybe they just won’t bother voting again if ASUA is forced to have another election, depending on the results of his second appeal. What would be the point of voting, either in an upcoming special election or in future ones, when it appears to have meant nothing the first time around? It’s no wonder that students in ASUA frequently cite student apathy as a concern, especially during elections time when candidates preach about representation and leadership. There isn’t exactly a reason to care if no one seems to be listening. It’s decisions like Colletti’s that breed apathy. — Editorials are determined by the Daily Wildcat editorial board and written by one of its members. They are Kristina Bui, Ken Contrata, Michelle A.

Terry Jones’ ‘trial’ mocks judicial system, religion Storm Byrd Arizona Daily Wildcat

I

f the name Terry Jones means nothing to you, then his publicity-seeking acts of extremism have not reached you. Unfortunately, the white handlebar mustached, nondenominational, evangelical pastor has attempted to reclaim his camera time by actually following through on what once made him infamous. In September 2010, Jones organized a mass book burning to commemorate the lives lost on September 11, 2001. Jones wasn’t burning just any book. He was burning the book of a religion, one that not only recognizes Jesus Christ as a prophet but recognizes the lineage of prophets that preceded him and recognizes a single God to rule his people. Jones sought to burn roughly 200 copies of the Quran, the holy book of Islam, back in September. After a national backlash and plenty of media coverage, Jones eventually backed down from his stance after many feared the risk it would pose to American soldiers and citizens abroad. Since then, Jones faded into the potentially racist and mentally unstable nothingness from whence he came. Alas, he has resurfaced, complete with a real bone to pick … or a real book to burn.

According to The New York Times, Jones organized a “trial” of the Quran in his church, complete with a jury of 12 church members. Can you guess the “conviction”? The Quran was “convicted” of five crimes against humanity, namely killing people for no reason other than because they weren’t of the Islamic faith. As “punishment” the Quran was soaked in kerosene and burned. Jones followed it all with this defense, which deserves a line-by-line analysis. “It is not that we burn the Quran with some type of vindictive motive,” Jones said. “We do not burn (the Quran) with great pleasure or any pleasure at all.” Really? It seems like that may be your only motive. I would say that the “jury” is still out on whether or not you enjoy it, Mr. Jones. “We burn (the Quran) because we feel a deep obligation to stay with the court system of America,” he said. “The court system of America does not allow convicted criminals to go free.” Wait, did you just call the Quran a convicted criminal? How can an inanimate object be convicted of a crime? A conviction by a kangaroo court of 12 “jurors” with their minds already made

up is hardly a conviction. And, to touch briefly on that reference to the courts, did you really just compare you and 12 fanatics to the American court system? The American court system goes through an extensive and legitimate process to try and convict people (not objects) of crimes. Our court system doesn’t round up 12 admirers, call them a “jury,” and hold a trial in a church that looks like a warehouse. Jones’ burning resulted in a violent protest in Afghanistan on a United Nations compound and the loss of 12 lives. Now, I’m never one to indirectly blame anyone for a horrible tragedy. Thus, I strayed away from blaming Sarah Palin for the Tucson tragedy on Jan. 8. What happened in Tucson was the choice of a single individual, just as is the case with what happened in Afghanistan. Were those in Afghanistan incited by Jones’ actions? They cite his book burning as their motive. Nonetheless, Jones’ actions are thoughtless and ignorant. Disregarding whatever repercussions may occur from his actions, Jones’ behavior is unacceptable, ignorant, hateful and prejudiced. As much as it pains me to see him get continued media coverage, even if it is from a college sophomore opinions columnist, this simply cannot be ignored and must be condemned. — Storm Byrd is a political science sophomore.

I told myself two years was too long, but life is an unpredictable thing. Indeed, getting the opportunity to finally return to Japan was a great surprise, as was what I flew into. We were an hour out of Narita when we received word of the quake. We were diverted, rerouted, and finally offloaded at a U.S. Air Force base. We made small talk. We found beer. We remained unsinkable. Our situation as stranded travelers of Delta Flight 295 was nothing compared to the poor souls in Sendai, Miyagi and Fukushima (among others), houses and loved ones swept away by the sea. I am doubly blessed; I missed the earthquake by minutes, and I have a home to return to. So many others in Japan have lost everything. We should count our blessings. Friends and family have asked me if I will stay or go. My plan was to visit a little more than a week, visit friends, get good and drunk, see my favorite places, and visit some new ones. I wanted to return to the feeling I had while living here. A feeling I never found in Arizona. It could be the beautiful, noisy city. It could be something in the water. Whatever it is, Tokyo makes me feel a certain way. But I digress. My decision was to stay, though it may vex those who love me. Anyone who ever visits Japan needs to recognize some simple truths. Japan is earthquake-prone, tsuna-

mi-prone, but generally safe. The quake and tsunami were miles from Tokyo, as is the Fukushima Nuclear Power Station. I offer this question in response to those who have brought up fleeing Tokyo as an option: If a plant went into meltdown in Boston, would you flee from New York? Philadephia? This is about the distance between Tokyo or Kyoto and Fukushima. It’s far, very far, safely far. I don’t begrudge those who do choose to leave, but perhaps in stubbornness, or a show of solidarity to my Japanese friends who have nowhere else to go, I choose to stay. Unless the quakes get worse, or Fukushima rhymes with Chernobyl, I’ll be here until my flight leaves. I’m glad, though it’s morbid, that I was able to bear witness to the devastation and pain, the beautiful outpouring of grief, community and support. I’ve become an integral part of a history, and, not to sound detached, I have some stories to tell. The goal of any traveler is to have experiences, and I am having them today. In closing, please do all you can to support the victims of the Great Tohoku Earthquake. Donate money or food, wear red, write a blog, tell a friend, or send a text. Do something, anything, to help. It is sorely needed. Do what you can and remember, be thankful for what you have and your place in the world. Fortunes change with the wind.

In honor of a tradition in college and national media on April 1, the Daily Wildcat ran a spoof back page for April Fools’ Day, with a masthead that said “Arizona Daily Kittycat” and five articles parodying news. In addition to stories about replacing Wilbur the Wildcat with a Highland Market burrito and Rebecca Black performing at Arizona Stadium, the Wildcat included a story about the shutdown of Greek Life and a student government coup by the “Prideful Alliance.” The April Fools’ Day issue was met with a mixed reaction, from support for the new burrito mascot or excitement about Rebecca Black to disappointment with the way Pride Alliance was depicted. Obviously, the “Daily Kittycat” was designed to be humorous, but not every reader agreed that it was. The groups parodied in those stories, like Pride Alliance and Greek Life, were chosen because they have a large campus presence. The Wildcat exercised caution in making sure that these stories were recognizably an April Fools’ joke. The April 1 articles used rhetorical hyperbole, and relied on cues such as the false masthead and the upside-down design, to signal that the page should not be taken seriously. The Wildcat regrets any misunderstanding.

’m sitting on the Shinkansen, whisking across the Japanese countryside at warp speed. The hum of the high-speed engines is calming; if these things can barrel along under mountain and over bay, then I am sure those minds working tirelessly to eliminate the threat of the Fukushima nuclear power plant accidents will do their utmost to ease our fears. I arrived in Japan in the wake of what I am calling the “Great Tohoku Earthquake.” Some are calling it the “Sendai Quake” or “Great Eastern Japan Quake,” but I think naming it after the region has a certain historical appeal. The Tokyo quake of 1923 is now and forever the Great Kanto Earthquake, and the Kobe quake of ’95 was aptly named the Great Hanshin Earthquake. Each of these quakes was not merely an isolated danger; they were not limited in scope, severity, or effect. They each killed thousands, displaced thousands, and literally felt hours away. This is something amazing about Japan; in the face of disaster, the people press on. Not only by going about their business, work, classes, but also by making sacrifices. Tokyo, though not hit by the quake, has gone dark. To reroute power to the disaster zone, TEPCO instituted rolling blackouts in the outer-Tokyo area. The trains of JR, Seibu and Tokyo Metro have been reduced to save electricity. And on streets, outside train stations and next to cash registers at convenience stores, people are giving donations.

Translational medicine makes new strides By Jazmine Woodberry ARIZONA DAILY WILDCAT The UA is working to create a physical place to expand interdisciplinary research and education. Technology and policy remain as focuses for the university’s research enterprise — and translational medicine remains a feature of this bridge, according to UA officials. Several science-intensive areas on campus, such as the BIO5 Institute and the Department of Agricultural and Resource Economics, work together to promote medical initiatives throughout the university. Dr. Fernando Martinez, pediatrics professor and director of the Arizona Respiratory Center and the BIO5 Institute, said that

“knowledge for knowledge’s sake” will still exist, but translating that from the research bench to the patient’s bed will become increasingly important. “Once you are successful in your little fiefdom, in your little silo, it’s hard to want to risk and go to the next step, but this country has been built on risk,” he said. “We have to take the risk to develop what we’re learning as knowledge into instruments to help people because that’s why they are funding our research.” Martinez said BIO5 is looking to create a new institute to house interdisciplinary and translational medicinal work. “We have really strong biomedical sciences. We don’t have a lot who build a bridge between a scientific funding and application of the patient,” said Leslie Tolbert, vice president of re-

search. Most universities of our size bring in more grants from the National Institutes of Health, she said, but the UA has a special gift in utilizing the interdisciplinary research culture to further research in an educational setting. “We are not a research institute,” Tolbert said. “Then, it would be set up more like a business with research for research’s sake. But we’re a university. We do research in a way that’s tightly coupled with education.” Biosciences initiatives, like the BIO5 research park in Oro Valley, Ariz., is also proof of continual innovation in the field, said Bruce Wright, associate vice president for University Research Parks. “The next step is truly to dare to work together,” Martinez said. His selection to head BIO5 came in part by the way he uti-

lized translation in his own professional field, asthma. In that field, he said, the UA “has the whole spectrum … from the very basic, basic scientist that is studying how genes work to the person doing directly clinical trials and trying to find new ways to treat children with asthma … and to take into account what the public tells us.” This is part of the model that Martinez hopes to facilitate in the creation of a new physical place to encourage interdisciplinary work in the UA — with a new building in BIO5 and a clinical and translational science institute. Martinez said the institute would provide, “a common home for people that are trying to improve health, improve nutrition, treat disease, prevent disease and cure disease.”

Already, people from around the university are working in these areas. Gary Thompson, the dean of the Department of Agricultural and Resource Economics, is analyzing leafy greens and genetically modified crops particularly with an interest in nutrition and obesity. “Food related to obesity, we’ve done that for a long time,” Thompson said. His department focuses on farmers and ranchers and translating that practical application to a research lab and eventually to funded research by the U.S. Department of Agriculture. “It’s not to create one more level of bureaucracy. Please, we don’t need that,” Martinez said. “It’s a place to put people together, to connect people, to connect to the public.”

Race track program shows unique qualities By Eliza Molk ARIZONA DAILY WILDCAT Race track management, offered only at the UA, was considered one of the most “unusual” college degrees to receive, according to CareerBuilder.com. UA’s Race Track Industry Program provides students with the knowledge for multiple career paths in the horse racing industry. Students can choose the “animal path,” which instructs them in fields such as horse training or breeding, or the “business path,” which trains them in the management side of the industry. Douglas Reed, the director of the Race Track Industry Program, explained that the “extremely diverse” industry is part of what makes the program so unique. He said that the industry contains entertainment such as gambling, food, and beverages, in addition to being a “world renown” competitive sport. So why is the UA the only university to offer this program? Reed said that people in the industry sought officials within the business, which required college educated individuals. The idea was “shopped around” to different colleges,

and the UA was the only one willing to try it. “It was initially done as an experiment,” he said. Edward King, a junior in the program taking the business path, said that he knew he wanted a career in horse racing because he grew up around it. He said the first time that he heard about the program was on TVG, a horse racing channel, but he also worked for a trainer who was an alumnus of the program, who told him about it and helped him get in. King said that the program helps prepare him to work in the industry by meeting different types of people within it, as well as learning about the business side and how the industry is conducted as a whole. “It’s given me a whole different definition, rather then just the one I grew up with,” he said. In past years, more than 80 percent of graduates from the program got a job right out of school , according to Reed, and enrollment in the program this year ranged from 40 to 50 students. Reed said that he was “a little worried about the future” in job placement due to the economy, and that networking and guest speakers brought

practices and language of the racing and gaming industry. She said that, as someone who always loved horses and business, the program was a “perfect fit” for her. She added that making contacts within the industry, like other students and alumni, was an important factor in

finding a job. Networking with alumni allowed her to meet the general manager of a racetrack, who put together an internship for her. “Not a lot of industries allow you to have face time with key players in that industry,” she said. For more information, visit http://ag.arizona.edu/rtip.

policebeat By Alexander Vega Arizona Daily Wildcat

Friday night, face-down in bodily fluids

A male UA student was cited for minor in possession after passing out on the street on March 25. A University of Arizona Police Department officer was on patrol near the traffic circle by Coronado Residence Hall at 12:15 a.m., when he noticed a man lying on his stomach next to a car. The man smelled of alcohol, was covered in vomit and urine, and did not respond to the officer’s commands to get up. The officer contacted Tucson Fire Department in regard to his extreme intoxication. He was evaluated by the Tucson Fire Department and was transported to the University Medical Center. At 3:10 a.m., the officer went to the UMC and made contact with the student and was able to wake him up. The student’s eyes were red and watery and his speech was very slurred. There was still a strong smell of alcohol on his breath. He said that he did not remember what or where he drank. He was cited and released for minor in possession of alcohol and a code of conduct referral was forwarded to the Dean of Students Office.

Catcalling, climbing on car clues in cops

Two male UA students were cited for possession of alcohol and marijuana after driving dangerously in front of a UAPD patrol car on March 26. A UAPD officer watched an SUV travelling north on Cherry Avenue at Helen Street with a passenger sitting completely outside the rear driver’s side window, blocking the mirror view of the driver at 4:14 p.m. The passenger was trying to pull himself onto the roof of the moving vehicle while yelling at women walking down the street. The officer stopped the vehicle at Vine Avenue and Drachman Street. While approaching the driver’s door to talk with the driver, the officer observed the rear seat passenger quickly shove a plastic bag into his pants pocket. The officer ordered the passenger to stop, but he continued to shove the bag into his pocket. An assisting officer on the scene spoke with the passenger and retrieved a bag of marijuana from his pants pocket. According to the officer, the passenger “exhibited a look of fear on his face” when he was asked about what he had in his pocket. The student said that he purchased the marijuana in the morning from a friend for $15. He was cited for possession of marijuana and released. When the officer spoke with the student who was hanging out of the window, there was a strong smell of alcohol coming from the student. He had watery eyes and his speech was slurred. He said that he drank two beers at a pool party. The officer cited and released him for minor in possession of alcohol.

Drunken student cries after story falls apart

A female UA student carrying two cases of beer on First Street was cited for minor in possession and providing false information to an officer on March 26. A UAPD officer on patrol in the area behind the Delta Chi fraternity house noticed a woman stumble and fall down in the parking lot. In the front of the fraternity house, the officer found the woman again, except she now had two cases of beer in her hands. She seemed intoxicated and appeared under the age of 21. As the officer spoke with her, he noticed she had bloodshot eyes, alcohol on her breath and a slight sway. She claimed to be 22 years old and produced an Illinois driver’s license. The photo on the license was similar but did not match her. As she was going through her purse, the officer noticed a second license. She gave the second New York license to the officer. She said that it was a fake that she used in high school before turning 21. She assured the officer that her identity was the Illinois one and she recited the address and birth date on the Illinois license. The officer also noticed credit cards in the wallet and asked to confirm her identity with the names on the cards. She produced two credit cards with two different names than the ones provided. To explain, she said that one was a friend’s and that the Visa belonged to her stepmother. The officer asked for her mother’s phone number and called the mother asking for the person whose name was listed on the credit card. The woman on the phone, presumably her mother, said that the name was her daughter’s and that her daughter was in Arizona attending school. After the officer obtained this information, the student started crying and admitted to giving the officer false information. She produced her real driver’s license and said that the other licenses belonged to friends. The officer cited her for minor in possession, using another’s license and giving false information to an officer. The officer also confiscated the friend’s credit card. After being issued her citation, the student asked if she could keep the beer. The officer collected and disposed of the beer at UAPD by pouring them out. A code of conduct referral was forwarded to the Dean of Students Office.

MCCLATCHY NEWSPAPERS PARIS — It sounded like an April Fool’s joke. A French town toppling a bust of Marianne, the symbolic heroine of the French Revolution, because she was too ... buxom? In a country where breasts have pride of place in movies, on beaches and, more bizarrely, yogurt advertisements, one well-endowed model nevertheless got the chop after causing blushes. France 3 television reported last week that a bust of Marianne that graced the town hall of Neuville-en-Ferrain near the northern city of Lille for two years had been knocked off her pedestal after local officials decided her proportions were too generous. Defending the decision — his arms folded across his chest — Mayor Gerard Codron told France 3: “We had to make a decision and avoid the criticisms that were regularly expressed during ceremonies with regard to this Marianne.” “So we decided to change the Marianne,”

he said, adding with a chuckle: “Laetitia Casta took over!” Casta, a French model whose silhouette is, ironically, usually described as curvy, was chosen as the template for the new Marianne. Like her predecessor the new Marianne is also shown in a low-cut dress and wearing a Phrygian cap, but her chest is noticeably flatter. Catherine Lamacque, the artist who produced the discarded version, was quoted as saying the decision was “absurd” and that she had deliberately made the breasts big “to symbolize the generosity of the Republic.” Indeed, most representations of Marianne, who was immortalized barebreasted and holding a French flag in a Delacroix painting “Liberty leading the People,” usually depict her as a voluptuous, bountiful figure. Reacting to the change, an elderly man in Neuville-en-Ferrain told France 3: “I think people are stupid, that’s all. Frankly, better nice breasts than none at all.”

Taliban exploits Afghan riots over Quran burning MCCLATCHY NEWSPAPERS KABUL, Afghanistan — One clear beneficiary has emerged from the wave of deadly riots that swept Afghanistan after members of a Florida evangelical church burned a copy of the Quran: the Taliban. The insurgents, according to Afghan and Western officials, have been able to exploit the ongoing tumult, using the riots as cover for attacks against Western and government targets and reaping propaganda benefits by allying themselves with popular fury over the desecration of the Muslim holy book. Moreover, the violence has fueled tensions among NATO allies, Western diplomats say, sparked as it was by an American figure, albeit a fringe one. The riots have tapped a well of antiforeign and particularly anti-American sentiment that exists even among Afghans who do not condone the deaths that have occurred. On Sunday, Afghans took to the streets for a third straight day, in Jalalabad and Kandahar, to protest the March 20 burning of a copy of the Quran by followers of Terry Jones, a pastor based in Gainesville, Fla. Officials in Kandahar reported at least two more deaths and dozens of injuries; the Jalalabad protest, though angry and impassioned, was largely peaceful. The latest fatalities brought the threeday death toll to 22 including seven U.N. workers and four demonstrators killed on Friday when rioters stormed their compound in Mazar-e-Sharif after mosque preachers inveighed against the Quran burning, and at least nine people killed in daylong rioting Saturday in Kandahar, the spiritual home of the Taliban movement.

The protests, which have touched virtually every major Afghan city, not only showed the hair-trigger sensibilities associated with any insult to Islam in this deeply conservative society but also illustrated the gulf between Western and Afghan precepts regarding free speech and civil liberties. Many Afghans, including some sophisticated urban dwellers, were baffled that what they considered an overt act of blasphemy could be considered a permissible expression of political opinion. “How can you do something that you know is going to cause violence and not be held accountable?” said Sayeed Humayoun, a Kabul teacher. “Even my littlest pupils know better than this.” President Hamid Karzai, as so often happens, appeared caught between the expectations of his Western patrons and the desire to avoid appearing complicit with foreigners at the expense of his own people. He offered condolences over the U.N. deaths even as he reiterated demands Sunday that those involved in the Quran burning be punished. The Taliban had no need to tread any such fine line. In a statement Sunday, the movement depicted the West as infidels and Karzai’s security forces as “hirelings” doing foreigners’ bidding in their attempts to quell the violence. SeniorWesternofficialsinAfghanistan have been urgently seeking Karzai’s assistance in calming passions. U.S. Ambassador Karl Eikenberry, together with Army Gen. David Petraeus, the American commander of Western forces in Afghanistan, and Mark Sedwill, the senior NATO civilian representative, met with Karzai, the president’s office said Sunday. The White House, meanwhile, may

have unwittingly inflamed tensions with an indirect reference to beheading in retribution for religious insult — a highly fraught topic because decapitations are sometimes associated with Islamic extremism. “The desecration of any holy text, including the Quran, is an act of extreme intolerance and bigotry,” Obama said in a statement Saturday. He added: “No religion tolerates the slaughter and beheading of innocent people, and there is no justification for such a dishonest and deplorable act.” The United Nations denied that any beheadings occurred during the assault on the compound in Mazar-e-Sharif. An early assertion by one Afghan police official that at least two of the foreigners killed had been decapitated was widely disseminated before being denied by others more familiar with events at the compound. The head of the U.N. mission in Afghanistan, Staffan de Mistura, told reporters in Kabul on Saturday that all seven victims, including the four guards, had gunshot wounds. Both Afghan and Western officials cited mounting evidence that insurgents had seized the opportunity to infiltrate crowds of demonstrators in both Kandahar and Mazar-e-Sharif, concealing themselves among those who otherwise might have marched relatively peacefully. De Mistura said the three Europeans who died in the Mazar-e-Sharif compound were not victims of random mob violence but were hunted down in the bunker where they had taken refuge. Afghan officials, who have made dozens of arrests in connection with the assault, said evidence so far suggested that the main instigators were allied with the insurgency.

Doll-sized William and Kate tie knot at Legoland royal wedding Doll-sized William and Kate tie knot at Legoland royal wedding The royal wedding is still a month a way, but Lego is already offering the public a little taste of the festivities. Model makers at the Legoland theme park in Windsor, England, have created a brick-by-brick model of Prince William and Kate Middleton’s upcoming nuptials. The Queen, Duke of Edinburgh,

Prince of Wales and Duchess of Cornwall are all present at the miniature Buckingham Palace, which required approximately 160,000 Lego bricks and 550 hours of work, all to display Lego Prince William and Lego Kate Middleton as they grace the royal residence’s famous balcony. Each 4-inch miniature guest took roughly two hours and 30 to 40 Lego pieces to build. “It’s a perfect opportunity

for us to showcase the skills of our fantastic model makers,” Legoland divisional director Sue Kemp told The Telegraph. “We are only two miles from Windsor Castle, and with the royal wedding so close now, lots of people are very interested to come in to Mini-London and see the showcase for the royal wedding that we have.”

YA GOT THE FUNK? ARIZONA DAILY WILDCAT

YO UL TR AVA OOK BA GANZ BY A, !

EX

do you want... answers to your ques�ons about sex and rela�onships

less stress? better grades? less sickness? better mood? Getting enough sleep each night improves ability to manage stress, boosts the immune system, sharpens concentration and memory for studying, and enhances overall physical and emotional health.

April is STD Awareness Month. Make the pledge to Get Yourself Tested (GYT).

Q

How long after unprotected sex can you get tested?

A. It depends. Sexually Transmitted Infections (STIs) are caused by a variety of organisms that fall into four main categories: bacterial, fungal, parasitic, and viral. Contrary to popular belief, there is not one “super” test that can screen for the over 25 different organisms that cause STIs. Each STI requires its own unique test, and each test has a specific time frame before results can be accurately determined. So, how long after exposure can you be tested for some of the most common STIs? Chlamydia ................... 7 - 10 days Gonorrhea .................... 7 days Hepatitis B................... 45 days - 6 months Herpes ......................... 2 - 90 days HPV.............................. 14 days - years HIV............................... 3 weeks - 3 months Syphilis........................ 10 - 90 days Getting tested is important considering 1 in 2 sexually active people will get an STI by age 25 and most won’t know it. How could someone not know? Many STIs show no signs or symptoms, which is why getting tested regularly (and after risky behaviors) is a smart idea. If left untreated, STIs can cause

significant long-term health problems.

Campus Health offers confidential STI and HIV testing which you can bill to your Bursar’s account – it shows up on your statement as “Campus Health Charge.” Every year, thousands of UA students come to Campus Health to get tested. To make an appointment, call 520-621-9202. If you have questions about testing or your sexual health, call 520-621-4967 to speak with a health educator. Remember, the only way to be 100% sure about your STI status is to get tested.

tips for better sleep

Talk with your doctor about getting tested. Be open and honest about your sexual health history, and let them know if you or your partner have any signs or symptoms, including painful urination, bumps, sores, and unusual discharge. From there, your doctor will be able to narrow down which test(s) to perform. Types of tests include: urine samples, blood tests, physical exams, and cultures.

Associate hoops coach leaves UA

Safety Adam Hall, 12, was expected to anchor the Wildcats’ secondary this year, but a major knee injury suffered in practice has put his 2011 season in jeopardy. Running back Greg Nwoko also suffered a similar injury in practice. Mike Chrsity/ Arizona Daily Wildcat

Archie Miller takes head coaching position at Dayton By Kevin Zimmerman Arizona Daily Wildcat Arizona men’s basketball associate coach Archie Miller was named the head coach of the Dayton Flyers on Sunday afternoon. The 32-year-old brother of Arizona head coach Sean Miller becomes one of the youngest head coaches in the NCAA, and his departure takes one of the country’s better recruiters from Tucson to Ohio. “He hit everything we said we wanted when we began our search,� Dayton athletic director Tim Wabler told the Dayton Daily News. “And the more we talked to him the more obvious it became. “We need somebody that embraces the challenge of where we are at — of just breaking through and getting us to the point where we annually are in the NCAA Tournament — and it just became clear he’s the right guy for this time right here.� Wabler told the Daily News that he was looking for an associate head coach from a major Division I school that had success. Archie Miller fit both of those criteria and has the added experience of coaching and recruiting in the midwest. He coached

Injury woes

Hall, Nwoko go down with ACL tears early in spring practice ByNicole Dimtsios Arizona Daily Wildcat Less than two weeks into spring practices, the Arizona Wildcats football team has already lost two key players within a span of five days. Both safety Adam Hall and running back Greg Nwoko have apparent ACL tears and are not expected to play for least seven months. “This is a little bit of a setback,� said head coach Mike Stoops, “but these guys that are going through this process of the surgery will come back and they’ll be productive players at some point next year.

MILLER, page 13

“We don’t know when,� he said, “but it’s certainly disappointing for them individually.� Stoops described the setback as “a freak injury.� Nwoko was injured during contact drills last weekend. Stoops said Nwoko was trying to avoid a tackler while making a cut. Nwoko was fulfilling the role of a larger running back complimentary to starting running back Keola Antolin’s speed. Stoops said either Daniel Jenkins or Taimi Tutogi would replace the injured Nwoko. Hall said he sustained the injury on Wednesday while working one-on-one drills af-

ter coming down off a jump. Hall said he couldn’t describe exactly what caused the injury. “I was just kind of in the air and it just happened,� he said. In addition to Hall’s ACL injury, he also said he had a slight meniscus tear in his right knee. Although Hall said the injury was disappointing, he was optimistic that he could be back some time this season. “We’re going to be proactive about it, have surgery soon. My swelling is already down,� Hall said. “We’ll just see how it goes through the progression in the rehab.� In terms of Arizona’s

secondary, senior Robert Golden, who started at cornerback last season, will move back to safety. He played two years of safety in his freshman and sophomore seasons for Arizona. Cornerbacks Jonathan McKnight and Shaquille Richardson will compete for the other starting spot opposite senior Trevin Wade. Stoops said Golden’s switch back to safety wouldn’t be a problem for the secondary. “I like some of our younger guys. We have three or four really starting corners,� Stoops said. “Just losing Adam (Hall), he was coming into his own, I just feel bad for him as a player.�

Back on track Baseball drops series to OSU Softball sweeps Stanford By Nicole Dimtsios Arizona Daily Wildcat The Arizona Wildcats softball team swept its first Pacific 10 Conference series of the season, defeating the Stanford Cardinal in three games in Palo Alto, Calif. The No. 7 Wildcats (32-6, 3-0 Pac-10) defeated the No. 12 Cardinal 8-0 in five innings on Friday, 6-1 on Saturday and 2-0 on Sunday. “Overall, the team just played very competitively with a lot of energy, a lot of positive atmosphere,� said head coach Mike Candrea. “As a coach, you kind of wait to see this all come together, and I think this weekend we put all the pieces together.� Arizona completed the sweep thanks in large part to the arm of sophomore pitcher Kenzie Fowler and the bat of third baseman Brigette Del Ponte. Fowler picked up two wins over the weekend and allowed four hits in 15.1 innings pitched against Stanford (24-7, 0-3). “It was a very good weekend,� Candrea said. “I think we played, finally, our best softball. Kids had great energy and great performance.� Candrea said Fowler ’s performance was “nice to see� after she had to adjust her pitching motion for the second time this season. Del Ponte doubled four times on Friday and Saturday, with two in each game. She

also had a home run on Sunday, “The thing about her is she’ll run into one now and then and hit it a long ways,� Candra said. “I thought she had some really good at bats.� Fowler (20-4) started off the weekend for the Wildcats and held the Cardinal to just one hit and three base runners as the Wildcats defeated Stanford 8-0 in five innings. Arizona brought its offense to Palo Alto on Friday, scoring five runs in the first three innings. Three more in the fourth would be enough to call the game by run-rule. Saturday saw the Wildcats play their first full-inning game since March 18. It was also the first conference win for freshman pitcher Shelby Babcock (12-2,) who got the start. The Wildcats completed the sweep in the tightest game of the series on Sunday. An RBI from right fielder Karissa Buchanan and Del Ponte’s home run were the difference in the game. Arizona is on the road again next weekend when it visits the Oregon State Beavers in Corvallis, Ore. “It’s always good to start Pac-10 strong,� Candrea said. “Anytime you can go on the road and win three it’s good. “Their approach to the game this weekend was outstanding and hopefully they can duplicate that again,� Candrea said.

Bryce Ortega and the Arizona baseball team dropped to 2-4 on the season in Pacific 10 Conference play after losing two of three against Oregon State this past weekend. The Wildcats will try to right the ship on Tuesday against ASU.

Starting pitching dooms Wildcats as they lose 2 of 3 By Alex Williams Arizona Daily Wildcat After dropping its first Pacific 10 Conference series to ASU, the No. 18 Arizona baseball team was raring to get back on the field against a conference opponent. Unfortunately for the Wildcats, this weekend’s series against No. 23 Oregon State (20-7, 2-1 Pac-10) was nearly a mirror image of the series in Tempe, with Arizona winning the first game only to drop the next two. “Their guys pitched well, we did not,� head coach Andy Lopez said. “It was a tough weekend.�

Arizona’s rotation struggled after Kurt Heyer opened the series by throwing the first complete-game shutout of his career as the Wildcats dismantled OSU 18-0 in a game that featured five Beaver errors.

On deck What: Arizona vs. ASU Where: Frank Sancet Stadium When: Tuesday, 6 p.m. The Wildcats (20-9, 2-4) scored 12 runs in the sixth inning while Oregon State cycled

through five different pitchers — including highly touted starter Sam Gaviglio, who allowed 10 runs in the outing, but only four were earned. Though Arizona’s huge inning kept Heyer off the mound for over half an hour, the righthander didn’t feel any ill effects from the wait. “I felt awesome,� Heyer said. “I played catch a little bit just to keep my arm fresh. Whether you’re up 12 runs or one run, you just have to keep the same mentality and pitch like it’s 0-0.� Saturday’s game was a different story on the mound. Kyle Simon, who didn’t BASEBALL, page 13

MILLER continued from page 12 at Ohio State under current head coach Thad Matta, gaining valuable experience in knowing where and how to navigate the region as far as recruiting goes. And at Arizona, the vacancy comes as a hit to a program that is bringing in a top-10 recruiting class for 2011, much of which is to Archie Miller’s credit — he is regarded as the staff’s West Coast recruiting guru. Shortly after the news broke Saturday evening, incoming player Nick Johnson, out of Findlay Prep in Nevada, shot off this tweet: “nothing is ever permanent, even if

its promised. Don’t rely on anyone so that when they let you down you won’t be affected #arizona.” Meanwhile, current players directly cited their former assistant coach. “Congrats to Archie Miller!!! Big time to get a head coaching job at such a young age...sad to see him leave tho,” said walkon Max Wiepking on his Twitter handle, @maxwiepking52. Forward Solomon Hill also was disappointed to see Archie Miller leave for Dayton. “Congrats to Archie Miller (head coach) now at Dayton. I really don’t want him to leave,” Hill said via his Twitter, @kingxsolo.

Wildcats finish fifth in NCAA regional Ryden impressed by teams’ effort, heart By Kevin Nadakal ARIZONA DAILY WILDCAT The Arizona gymnastics team headed into what it considered to be one of the toughest NCAA regional groupings in the country during the weekend and left with fifth place. The Wildcats had a total team score of 195.400, which was 0.225 away from the fourth place University of Denver. “It was like déjà vu with three really strong events and one event that sort of held us back a little,” said head coach Bill Ryden. Arizona was able to score more than 49 as a team in its two strongest events, vault and floor, and earned a 48.850 in bars. Falls and miscues caused the team to drop a place with a team score of 48.350. “Our two all-arounders both fell, Aubree (Cristello) and Deanna (Graham) fell,” Ryden said. “Two girls that I would have bet money that they weren’t going to fall. It was just one of those bizarre situations. “As a coach you have to appreciate the fact that they never quit. If there was a time that they could have quit, it would have been this meet because a lot of their goals seemed a very far reach after we counted that fall, but they came back.” Ryden praised freshmen Shana Sangston and Jordan Williams, who were able to step up for the team during the beam event. Ryden recalled that Sangston was physically shaking on the beam because of her nerves but was able to score a 9.750.

BASEBALL continued from page 12 attend Thursday’s practice or Friday’s game while battling a stomach bug, obviously wasn’t himself on Saturday — allowing five runs in 5.2 innings while walking multiple batters in an outing for the first time this season. “The ball just didn’t behave today,” Simon said. “You should never feel super good going into an outing, but you should never feel this bad either. But I fought through it and did what I could to get the team into a winning position, but we just couldn’t get it done today.” Arizona pitchers allowed two threerun home runs — one to Ryan Dunn and another to Ryan Barnes — the first career home runs for both hitters, and Dunn’s first career extra-base hit. Before Dunn’s blast, a questionable call on a play at first extended the inning. With two outs, shortstop Alex Mejia fielded a ball in the hole, and his throw to first appeared to beat the Oregon State runner, but umpire Scott Higgins called him safe. “That’s probably one of the worst umpire calls I’ve seen,” Simon said. “That changed the game in all reality, but with

“We had some amazing individual performances with Miranda (Russell) and Katie (Matusik) standing out the most,” Ryden said. The regional meet was the last time that Russell would be performing for Arizona, as she’s a fifth year senior. She was able to stand on the podium for her floor exercise earning a 9.875, which was good for a two way tie for third with fellow Wildcat Deanna Graham. “I couldn’t be more proud of Miranda Russell,” Ryden said. “I know for a fact that she is incredibly proud and thankful that she came back and I am thankful that she did come back. The fact that she feels that good about her year makes it that much sweeter for me as a coach.” Matusik tied her career high on bars with a 9.800. Matusik also led the team on beam with a 9.875, which got her on the podium with second place. She ended her night breaking another career high with 9.800 during her floor routine. “I think that was one of my best meets as a gymnast ever,” Matusik said. “It was a good way to end my junior year.” Matusik was not chosen to perform her bars routine until the Wildcats were in the middle of their routines. Ryden chose to warm up seven gymnasts and chose Matusik because of how well she did in warm-ups. “At the end of the day, we are all proud to be Wildcats,” Matusik said. “I know for Miranda (Russell) and me, it was just an awesome way to finish the season.”

pitching you should have the ability to forget about the last pitch, so that was bad on my part for not getting the next guy out.” Arizona’s offense pushed across three runs in the first inning on Saturday, but was able to manage only one more run in the 10-4 loss . The Wildcats trailed only 6-4 after Dunn’s homer in the sixth, but a 4-run Oregon State ninth put the game out of reach. Arizona stumbled out of the gate in Sunday’s series finale, with starting pitcher Tyler Hale allowing seven runs — all earned — in 2.2 innings of work in the 8-4 loss. “(Hale) was horrible,” Lopez said. “He couldn’t throw strikes, couldn’t locate, he was up in the zone. He was not very good.” The Wildcats took control of some momentum with a 2-run home run off the bat of Robert Refsnyder in the sixth inning, but weren’t able to do any further damage. “Baseball’s a funny game,” Refsnyder said. “Friday we put up big numbers, but Saturday and Sunday we struggled.” Though Arizona is now in the bottom half of the Pac-10 standings, Refsnyder said that there isn’t any sense of panic. “No panic,” Refsnyder said. “We’ll figure it out. We’ll be good from here.”
