ASUA to dole out the dough

MAKE A SPLASH

By Jazmine Woodberry ARIZONA DAILY WILDCAT Spending the money approved last week is on ASUAâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s agenda for this week. The Associated Students of the University of Arizona convene for their second meeting tonight to discuss funding for several different departments on campus. A funds request is being made by the senate for money to complete a Residence Hall-wide initiative to let more on-campus students know about ASUA programs and services. Sen. Chad Travisâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; residence hall poster displays had already been sent to print at the last meeting and now need final approval. Also to be approved is money for the

Zona Zoo reveals 2010 shirt design By Jazmine Woodberry ARIZONA DAILY WILDCAT Zona Zoo revealed the 2010-11 shirt design, as well as new rules and additions to the largest student section in the Pacific 10 Conference. At the end of the conference, the new shirt was revealed. The shirt was created by Brian McGill; his design won in a field of 40 original submissions and more than 4,000 votes for the four chosen finalists last spring. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If you look at the Wildcat, it definitely (captures) the Zona Zoo environment,â&#x20AC;? McGill said, who won 10 shirts to give to his family and friends as well as a free Zona Zoo pass. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Using just the upper half really (captures) that.â&#x20AC;? The Associated Students of the University of Arizona President Emily Fritze noted that this yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s shirt is her â&#x20AC;&#x153;favorite shirt that weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve ever had.â&#x20AC;? Zona Zoo shirts become available today. At the conference, Fritze also stressed firstclass conduct at Zona Zoo sporting events. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Students should represent the university in a positive manner at all times,â&#x20AC;? Fritze said. New â&#x20AC;&#x153;Bear Down Prideâ&#x20AC;? sportsmanship guidelines were set in order to control students attending Zona Zoo events. In addition to being the biggest student athletic section, Zona Zoo has a reputation for rowdiness, seen in their early rushing of the field during ESPNâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s College Game Day appearance last November. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This year, we want to give back to the students,â&#x20AC;? said Giuliano Lepe, Zona Zoo executive director.

Greeks held to high standards Violating policy leads to loss of UA recognition By Yael Schusterman ARIZONA DAILY WILDCAT Behind the UA Greek Life party scene, there is more than meets the eye. Many times while fraternity members appear to enjoy themselves at social functions, they are simultaneously keeping in mind their organizational rules and regulations so that no consequential incidents will occur. Often, when a fraternity or sorority is removed from campus, students do not know why or how it happened. Veda Kowalski, UA senior associate dean of students, oversees the student code of conduct and points out that reports come from various sources such as police, resident life, Greek Life and witnesses in some cases. The dean of students investigates the cases by obtaining information from those sources in order to ascertain what happened. â&#x20AC;&#x153;From there we make a determination whether a violation occurred or not,â&#x20AC;? Kowalski said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If we donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have supporting information, the case is dismissed. On the other hand, if we find information that a violation occurred, then we look at sanctions.â&#x20AC;? Sanctions are determined on a case-to-case basis, but can range from warnings to expulsion. According to Kowalski, these investigations will be more prevalent this year than in the past. University of Arizona Police Department public information officer Sgt. Juan Alvarez states that officers look to see if there is a disturbance created and large amounts of underage drinking. This usually results in a red tag from the city or the police shutting the party down. â&#x20AC;&#x153;As a normal course of conduct, if we arrest a student who is cited, we make a referral to dean of students.â&#x20AC;? Alvarez states. He adds that officers observe the majority of alcohol arrests first hand. Alvarez said that students will rarely report underage drinking and often city police will get calls from neighbors and then, if it is a Greek party, the city will call UAPD.

Students enjoy Eegeeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s frozen fruit drinks and play a friendly game of volleyball as part of a Theta Chi fraternity rush event outside the Park Student Union on Tuesday. Rush events that involve alcohol and are not approved by GAMMA, Greeks Advocating the Mature Management of Alcohol, can lead to sanctions by the university.

Based on the Judicial History Report, seven houses are under sanctions from the UA and two others remain under investigation for allegations. Austin Byrne, an aerospace and mechanical engineering junior and Pi Kappa Alpha member, explains that there is a mandatory training course given when individuals are still pledging that outline the Greek Life codes of conduct and the different rules. The Center for Student Involvement and Leadership also provides a packet to prevent violations from occurring. The packet covers a wide range of topics from security to alcohol and mentions certain university standards; including that the only alcohol that can be consumed at an on-campus event is alcohol with 6 percent alcohol content or less. It also states alcohol is limited to six 12-ounce beers per person or four wine coolers per person. After the dean of students sends a letter to the house saying they are under investigation, the chapter gets an opportunity to defend

themselves. The final decision is based on accusations, whether those accusations are true and what the outcome will be rests with the Dean of Studentsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Office, said Pi Kappa Alpha fraternity President Darren Thompson. In 2009, Pi Kappa Alpha petitioned to their organizationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s nationals to get officially recognized as a fraternity on the UA campus. After they were established on campus, they underwent a five-month probation period after a house party. Last year, four fraternities lost their university recognition from hazing violations and/ or by providing an environment conducive to sexual assault. When a fraternity loses its recognition, they are taken off campus for a number of years, most commonly five years, and then is allowed to petition to return. Thompson now believes the fraternity is more connected to campus after the experience. He confirms that there are a number of policies to ensure the fraternity follows appropriate codes of conduct and recognizes the im-

physiology junior Since we are standing here at Starbucks, what is your order? I usually get like an iced coffee with Breve. Whoa, hold up. What is Breve? It is pretty much just a fancy way of saying half and half, like a type of cream people add flavor to like vanilla, irish cream; it just gives more texture to the coffee. Aside from me, who is the most exciting person you have met on this campus? Professor, friend, celebrity, just anyone, aside from me? Aside from you, I want to say my friend Sam Wang. Okay tell us about Sam. You were just on the phone with him. He is fabulous, he dresses super nice. I would have to say he taught me ways of behaving correctly because I used to just be really, really… Naïve? Yes! Naïve in the college setting I would just say the wrong things and just extremely socially awkward. What!? You do not seem like you have an awkward bone in your body. I was then, but Sam taught me the ways. Wang’s ways, in other words. Yes, Wang’s ways. I have him to thank for the new person I became. I guess you could say a little bit of my fashion sense and pop culture increased because of him because we are so into Lady Gaga. Monsterball! We went to the concert in Phoenix, actually! Stop, I heard it was just out of control, fabulous. I almost cried two times when I saw her in person. We were really close, we were right on the corner of the runway and she pretty much validated our existence by pointing at us. You guys were like some of the chosen few. What is your favorite Gaga song? “So Happy I Could Die,” definitely my favorite. And then there is also “Alejandro,” which actually has been playing a lot in Starbucks. There is nothing like getting Starbucks and listening to “Alejandro” in the morning, so that made my morning. If you could relate your life to any Lady Gaga song what would it be? “Just Dance.” David, that is amazing. So you are totally the guy that just loves to dance without holding anything back? Well, I have been told that I have a donk, basically, and I like shaking it, it’s a lot of fun. Yeah, I go crazy when I am in a party setting. I don’t get crazy drunk, in that sense, but I get along with everyone and love to make it fun. So in other words, you are the life of the party like Snoop Dogg and when you hear a song you can’t even stop your body from moving? Yeah, and I like, flail my arms around and scream out dancing, kind of get a little obnoxious but I don’t really care. We’re young, that’s what we are supposed to do. We’re young, and wild, and free. — Caroline Nachazel

Paris Hilton looking at hard time if convicted of cocaine possession McClatchy Tribune Paris Hilton was arrested with .8 grams of cocaine in Las Vegas on Friday evening and charged with felony possession on Monday. While the hotel heiress has since claimed that the purse in which the drug was found was not hers, she could face time behind bars if found guilty of felony possession of the controlled substance. If convicted of a low-grade

felony, under Nevada law, Hilton could be punished with a maximum of four years in jail. However, such a sentence is not likely, says a former D.A. “Although the law in Nevada does tend to be more stringent than in California, in reality it is not likely Paris will receive such a harsh sentence,” former Los Angeles County Deputy District Attorney, Robin Sax told Pop Tarts. “Usually 18 months after one conviction,

it gets dismissed. It is more likely that, if convicted, Paris will be given probation which could involve substance abuse class and treatment, and a $5000 fine. She may also still get probation with a small amount of jail time, [like] 30 days.” In 2007, Hilton was sentenced to 45 days in jail for violating the terms of a DUI arrest, and about a month ago she was detained and released after being caught in possession of marijuana at Figari Airport, Corsica.

portance of them. “If you violate a policy, you’re risking chapter opportunities,” Thompson said. “We try and follow them as closely as possible.” When asked how he would rank his fraternity’s adherence to codes of conduct, Thompson said he would choose an eight. “We do strive to be gentlemen on campus, but there is always room for improvement,” he said. There are two annual symposiums held on campus to further assist Greek members. The Sophomore Symposium, which was first held last year, is held through Fraternity and Sorority Programs and educates sophomores on bystander intervention, how to be a good big brother or sister, academic success and other topics that are relevant for sophomores to know, said Zachary Nicolazzo, coordinator of Fraternity and Sorority Programs. In addition, there is a New Member Symposium, which is similar in scope but limited to new Greek Life members. Andrea Rose, a pre-architecture sophomore and member of Chi Omega, has been in the sorority for two years. “We really care how we are perceived on campus, and we are proud of our reputation for having the highest GPA (grade-point average) on campus,” Rose said. “We want to live up to that.” Rose said that her experience

with the Sophomore Symposium was “not the most exciting thing in the world,” and was very similar to the New Member Symposium, but she found it to be more inspirational. Sorority charters are written to be more strict than those of the fraternities on matters such as alcohol and parties. “The girls try to be as respectful as they can and abide by the rules,” Rose said. Recruitment chairman and physiology and religious studies senior Jeff Kiser explains that Phi Delta Theta has a substance-free facility, meaning no illegal drugs or alcohol are present in the chapter house. Kiser said the fraternity was the first international fraternity to pass such a policy in 2000. “Originally, it was very revolutionary and people didn’t know what to think about it,” he said. “But now we are definitely starting to see the benefits.” He feels that the quality of men involved is higher because the school understands the house is not just about partying, but about values. As president in 2009, Kiser was relieved that the fraternity did not have to deal with sanctions or violations. The house recently received the Dean of Students Award for Excellence in the Greek community. “Everyone was a little surprised since we have 22 members; most people perceive Greek life as having big numbers and that’s not what it’s about,” Kiser said.

The Deutscher Studenten Club allows students to utilize German in their everyday lives and has requested money for a student World Cup-esque tournament. Despite asking for over $3,500, only $1,253 was allocated for the event’s field and security rental yesterday, as noted on the ASUA Appropriations Board consent agenda. The National Pan-Hellenic Council, the AfricanAmerican Greek Life’s governing student body, is also requesting money from the ASUA reserves to help fund their “Intake Equation” to cover costs of speakers. This was tabled until tomorrow’s meeting due to the lack of representatives present for the appropriation confirmation on Monday. Both appropriation votes were unanimous. Reorganization within ASUA, including collaborative efforts with campus groups such as the University Activities Board and the Center for Student Involvement and Leadership, will also be up for discussion, according to ASUA President Emily Fritze.

“This plasma has the potential to initiate or direct lightning strikes,” Moloney said. “Or detect targets at a remote point (called Laser-Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy). Another dramatic physical process that occurs is white light, or super-continuum generation. This allows one to create a remote light source that can act as an artificial star for astronomers when correcting for turbulence, or again for detecting molecules at distances of around 30 kilometers vertically in the atmosphere.” Moloney used his expertise in both mathematics and physics to determine the best process for the project. “These beams are very intense; we have to be careful not to destroy special equipment,” Kolesik said. “The (other teams) will be translating the mathematics into simulations that we can use computers to predict effects. We are working with such extreme conditions, that even every measurement is critical.” Moloney’s passion is cited as one of the main reasons the project is now in trials and not on paper. “What he is doing, again with a team, is taking this knowledge that could’ve just ended up on pieces of paper and published into practical use,” said Leslie Tolbert, UA vice president for research. “‘What are all the things we could do with these pulse lasers? There is this huge set of possibilities out there. What if I put together a team that lets me address them directly, instead of just sort of handing things off?’ That’s what he did and he got the funding, so that means he gets to move forward in this really collaborative project.” Moloney and his team will be joined by professors from Marburg, Germany; Boulder, Colorado; University of Central Florida;Cornell University;Temple University and the Colorado School of Mines. “It’s about people working together in teams,” said Tolbert. “Sometimes the teams have to involve people outside of the university, sometimes they’re within, but more and more these big multi-million dollar projects require that you work in teams.” Both Moloney and Tolbert stressed the student roles in UA research. “There are some opportunities for semester project support for undergraduate seniors and juniors with an appropriate background in physics and mathematics,” Moloney said.

A $7.5 million federal grant will be used at the UA to study the effects of a specialized laser on the atmosphere. Jerry Moloney, director of Arizona Center for Mathematical Sciences, is leading a team from the UA. The Multidisciplinary University Research Initiative is awarded to high-profile basic research which may impact the Department of Defense in the future. “This particular MURI award was the only one to the state of Arizona with an Arizona university lead,” Moloney said.

“This plasma has the potential to initiate or direct lightning strikes,” — Jerry Moloney director of Arizona Center for Mathematical Sciences Miroslav Kolesik, an associate research professor for the College of Optical Sciences and another leader of the team, say the project is a continuation of many, but now there are more teams working on it. “The general area of this project (is) what I like to call extreme optics,” Kolesik said. The focus of the study is to launch intense laser pulses into the atmosphere that can be used to detect molecules of gas over distances of up to 30 kilometers. “We propose to use sophisticated mathematical methods to derive new equations that correctly capture the physics, implement these in large-scale computer simulations and use the outcomes to design new classes of laser beams that can propagate over multi-kilometer distances in air,” Moloney said. The UA team sends pulses into the atmosphere that can ionize molecules in the air to create plasma, which behaves like a conducting wire.

Questions and Answers On Academic Advising

Sponsored by the Advising Resource Cener

Q. Dear Advisor: I know I should speak to my instructors during their office hours, but they kind of intimidate me. Should I just skip it, do the best I can, and get help from other students? – Afraid of Faculty. A. Dear “Afraid”: Whether you are a freshman or a senior, it’s very common to be a little intimidated. With a little effort, you can get past this fear and learn to successfully interact with your instructors. The most important thing is, never try to replace the assistance of your instructors with that of other students. When going to see one of your instructors, know what you want to accomplish and be prepared. Make a list of questions that address your concerns. When you enter the instructor’s office, ask if he or she is available to talk to you, introduce yourself, let him or her know what class and section you are in, and then dive right in. Phrase your questions appropriately using proper grammar and complete sentences. Also, don’t just expect a quick answer unless it is an informational type of question. Be ready to discuss the issue with the instructor. I think you will be pleasantly surprised by your interaction with your instructors. Instructors genuinely enjoy interacting with students one-on-one. They enjoy students that challenge them with questions and ideas about the material covered in class. Instructors also learn from students and appreciate a fresh point of view. Stick to your convictions, but be able to back them up with appropriate data and theory. Getting to know your instructors has many advantages. If you have problems with the course, they know who you are, that you are interested in the course, and will be more likely to give you the benefit of the doubt than the student who never goes to office hours, skips class, or does not participate in the learning process. Also, if the instructor knows you and your abilities, you will be the one who comes to mind when there are opportunities for research projects or other work outside the classroom that can enrich your college experience. Also, don’t forget that you may need letters of recommendations for graduate school or references for future employment, and the best ones come from instructors. They are unable to write strong letters of support if they don’t know you. Get to know your instructors, and you will attain a fuller education than those who don’t. If you need a little coaching or encouragement, talk with your academic advisor.

The definition of a maverick: not John McCain Nyles Kendall

Arizona Daily Wildcat

he blare of heavy artillery could be heard across Arizona last week as the state’s Republican senatorial primary candidates battled for their political lives. When the final rounds were fired and the smoke had cleared, one man emerged victorious. Vietnam War veteran, 2008 Republican presidential nominee and four-term United States senator John McCain claimed victory in last week’s primary. He will now face off against Democratic nominee Rodney Glassman in hopes of serving his fifth and quite possibly final term as Arizona’s senator. Unfortunately, McCain’s triumph in this primary election has proven that he is willing to do anything, perhaps even sell his soul to the devil, if it will forward his political career. It is clear that the man who once proudly declared himself a “maverick” is no longer worthy of the title. Fervent anti-incumbent sentiment and distrust of the Washington establishment has made this election cycle especially difficult for politicians like John McCain, who has served more than 20 years in Congress. The fact that McCain was once among the most moderate members of the Republican Party has only added fuel to the flame. The GOP is currently undergoing a purge. Moderate members of the party, such as McCain, are being ousted and replaced by more conservative and, in some cases, more radical right-wing candidates. This purge is typified by the emergence of the Tea Party, a far-right, antibig government political movement whose agenda, among other things, includes promoting racial intolerance and finding the President’s Kenyan birth certificate. Any Republican incumbent seeking re-election who is not Tea Party-certified faces the risk of losing his or her conservative credentials as well as a seat in the legislature. McCain and his opponent J.D. Hayworth both received Tea Party endorsements, but apparently McCain didn’t believe being endorsed by a cabal of conspiratorial racists was enough to win a re-election. In order to appease his political base, which has been corrupted by the Tea Party movement, McCain has disavowed many of the political positions that set him apart from his counterparts. His stances on climate change, cap and trade, immigration, campaign finance reform and “Don’t ask, don’t tell” gained him the reputation as one of the most centrist members of the Republican Party, though he has flipflopped on nearly all of these issues now that an election cycle has rolled around. McCain’s sudden change of heart on the issue of immigration and amnesty caused a kerfuffle. In fact, the Hayworth campaign made amnesty the centerpiece of their anti-McCain crusade. But oddly enough, McCain now claims he never supported amnesty. Apparently he wants his constituents to forget that he co-sponsored a comprehensive immigration reform bill with the very liberal Ted Kennedy that proposed, yes, an amnesty program for more than 12 million illegal immigrants. Now, McCain can be seen in overlydramatic and poorly-produced campaign ads promising to build a “danged fence”. Furthermore, his support of the draconian SB 1070 has thrown many for a loop. How can a man who was at one point a proponent of amnesty come out in support of an immigration law that turns Arizona’s police force into the Gestapo? We all remember the 2008 presidential election when John McCain and the “Disasta from Alaska” drove onto the political stage in their “Straight Talk Express” being all “mavericky.” A maverick is defined as “someone who exhibits great independence in thought and action.” A maverick does not pander to his base, nor does he seek to appease an unorganized political movement destined to be tossed into the trash heap of history. John McCain is not a maverick. He is a sell-out, willing to sacrifice his principles in order to fulfill his political ambitions. — Nyles Kendall is a political science junior.

Intellectuals have responsibilities in times of war and militarization Gabriel Schivone

Arizona Daily Wildcat

tremendous scandal recently unfolded at Harvard University involving a renowned scientist in the field of animal cognition whose research techniques and experiments have been charged with eight counts of “scientific misconduct.” These charges are in the vein of “data acquisition, data analysis, data retention, and the reporting of research methodologies and research,” according to a faculty letter from Harvard’s Dean of Arts and Sciences on Aug. 18. The scientist himself apologetically admits to a series of vague “mistakes.” Either way, both parties have agreed to some amount of wrongdoing and await hearings by various authorities for possible punitive measures that could include everything from “involuntary leave, extra oversight, and restrictions on the ability to apply for grants and supervise students,” as reported by the New York Times. So much for being given over to slovenly science, in which this case shows the scientist will probably be held accountable. Now, what about questions of science regarding life and death of millions of people? In a series of articles in the Harvard Crimson, published in March 2008, student muckraker Lois Beckett reviewed similar questions of responsibility and accountability, but extended them to the role of intellectuals in times of war, specifically the U.S. invasion of Iraq. As with many past U.S. wars, prominent Harvard intellectuals admittedly played a leading role in administering official support for, and justification of, the war. And there were some cases in which Harvard intellectuals uncomfortably understood the possible consequences of the war, but didn’t speak up because they didn’t want to seem unpatriotic among their peers, who shared

similarly silent reservations. The U.S. invasion of Iraq resulted in the destruction of human life comparable in number with the Rwandan Genocide and the Cambodian killing fields based on the September 2007 outstanding report by British polling agency ORB, the Opinion Research Business. The U.S. invasion resulted in roughly 1 million violent deaths. In one of her articles, Beckett quotes Harvard’s prominent strategic analyst Graham Allison: “In medicine, there’s medical malpractice. … In law, you can be disbarred. Well, how about in our business?” Beckett writes, “The answer, Allison said, is that there is no formal way of holding intellectuals responsible for their ideas, no matter how badly they get them wrong.” Today, these considerations should remain front and center for students to bear in mind as we move through the detached matrix that is academia. There’s one important distinction, however. Using words or phrases like “getting it wrong” or “mistake” or “misconduct” assumes that, in the U.S., we have the right to “experiment” on another country with a war whose disastrous consequences and inherent injustice are easily detectable by anyone, whether a Harvard intellectual or a local bus driver. True, Harvard academicians could argue — as in usual misconduct cases — that they didn’t intend to help cause the murder and displacement of millions of people, being directly complicit in the crimes that resulted from the U.S. invasion of Iraq in 2003. But, as elementary legal and moral principles reflect, criminal responsibility is not judged by intention, but by the real or likely consequences of the act, or failure to act. And serious precedents are not far off in history within American society. At the International Criminal Tribunals at Nuremberg following World War II, U.S. justices applied these very standards to intellectuals of

“ Using words or phrases like ‘getting it wrong’ or ‘mistake’ or ‘misconduct’ assumes that, in the U.S., we have the right to ‘experiment’ on another country with a war whose disastrous consequences and inherent injustice are easily detectable by anyone, whether Harvard intellectual or local bus driver.”

Nazi Germany: from Julius Streicher, editor of a leading newspaper, to Wolfram Sievers of the University of Strasbourg. Both cases were judged on the basis of the defendants’ prominent cultural, political and so-called “scientific” work and ideas which, wittingly or unwittingly, supported the vicious crimes perpetuated by the Nazis. And both intellectuals were hanged for them. If we bothered to apply the same standards to ourselves, something we failed to do even at Nuremberg, regarding the war crimes of the allied forces such as the firebombing of civilian centers like Dresden and Tokyo and the nuclear obliterations of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, then perhaps the Harvard intellectuals, along with the policymakers in Washington, would face grave punishment. Similarly, if we at the UA had the courage and integrity to judge ourselves with the very standards that we apply to others, then many of our professors would be called to the carpet in ways that proceed well beyond the possible scholarly “sanctions” that may await the Harvard scientist guilty of misconduct a few weeks ago. Last year, the American Civil Liberties Union released a landmark report outlining the humanitarian crisis caused by U.S. policy along the border — militarization and so-called “security” and “surveillance” infrastructures, such as the border wall and virtual fences — that has caused more than 5,600 deaths since 1994. Since 2008, the UA has been an institutional leader in the prestigious Department of Homeland Securitysponsored Center of Excellence for Border Security and Immigration, where the brightest minds of southwestern universities provide the state with the intellectual means needed to fulfill the U.S. policy that comes in the form of body bags overflowing the Pima County morgue. The project’s leaders are housed in the Eller College, with our very own professors being the leaders and helpers. But, alas, cowardice is the path of least resistance for issues that often matter most. And unfortunately for us, the bulk of the history between scientists and the government in the United States sets the moral expectation exceedingly low. As a new generation of scientists and human beings, the question of how we, as students, will apply decent standards to our studies and work as they apply to the real world remains our choice, and ultimately, our responsibility. — Gabriel Matthew Schivone is an undergraduate at Prescott College majoring in art, literature and media studies.

Some jokes are hardly cute

A woman was spotted sleeping on an electric box on Thursday. When University of Arizona Police Department officers arrived the woman was showing signs of intoxication. At approximately 4:25 a.m. the woman was swaying in every direction, her eyes were bloodshot and the officer could detect a strong odor of alcohol on the woman. Upon being asked where she lived, the woman told the officer La Paz Residence Hall. Later, however, she went back on that statement and said that she lived at one of the sorority houses on campus. The woman was cited for minor in possession of alcohol. The officer then transported the woman to her home. Once they arrived at the sorority house, the officer explained the citation to her. The woman said she understood and signed it in front of the officer. After signing the citation, the woman said she “had wished [the officer] had sexually assaulted” her. The officer had a supervisor from UAPD come in to the sorority house prior to providing a copy of the citation. The woman stated she was joking about wanting the officer to sexually assault her in front of the UAPD supervisor. She said he had not done anything like that. The woman was provided a copy of the citation and released without further incident.

Hold on to your CatCards, people

A student reported that he was pick-pocketed at the Student Union Memorial Center while waiting in line at IQ Fresh on Aug. 25, at approximately 2 p.m. A UAPD officer responded to the case and approached the scene of the theft. When the officer contacted the student, he said his CatCard was in a pocket on the back of his backpack. There are no suspects or witnesses. The student has put a hold on his CatCard and was given a victim’s rights form.

Putting a stop to the pool hop

A man and woman were arrested by UAPD on charges of trespassing at the pool at Hillenbrand Aquatic Center on Thursday. When the officers arrived at the scene, they noticed two people swimming in the pool and began walking towards them. The man and woman quickly got out of the pool. The officers spoke to them through a fence, and the man and woman were identified as UA students. Both of them stated that this was the first time they had ever trespassed at the pool, and that they had climbed over the fence in order to get in. The UAPD officers arrested them on charges of 2nd degree criminal trespassing.

Speeding + expired license = bad idea

A dark-colored BMW was seen making an improper right turn into the second lane of a street near UA campus. A UAPD officer noticed this and followed the car as it began to go faster. The police officer paced the vehicle at 50 miles per hour, and pulled the driver over. Once he approached the car and made contact with the driver, the officer learned that the driver had a suspended license that had expired in June. He cited the driver on charges of driving with a suspended license and speeding. The driver was released and the vehicle was towed.

Obama: ‘Time to turn the page’ on Iraq war McClatchy Newspapers

WASHINGTON — President Barack Obama said Tuesday night that “it is time to turn the page” as he declared the lengthy and costly U.S. combat mission in Iraq over, adding that “it is not only in Iraq’s interest — it is in our own.” With the end of the seven-year Iraq war, Obama vowed to bring the same result to the nearly decadelong fight in Afghanistan starting next year and promised to focus on the top concern of a war-weary public: restoring the economy and putting people to work. “Tonight, I am announcing that the American combat mission in Iraq has ended,” Obama said in an 18-minute televised address from the Oval Office. “Operation Iraqi Freedom is over, and the Iraqi people now have lead responsibility for the security of their country,” he said, adding that America will continue to provide support as “a friend and a partner.” But as he left 50,000 troops and a beefed-up diplomatic and civilian corps behind for training and assistance,

Electronic Arts brings ‘Madden’ to Facebook The Associated Press NEW YORK — Electronic Arts is bringing its popular “Madden” football game to Facebook. “Madden NFL Superstars” launches as a free application Tuesday. The game lets players create fantasy teams featuring more than 1,500 current NFL players from this year’s team rosters. The fantasy teams compete with one another on Facebook. Or, they can play against fantasy versions of the season’s actual NFL teams. Electronic Arts Inc. plans to make money from the game by letting players pay nominal amounts of money for better players and other game content. Those microtransactions are expected to add up, though the majority of players are expected to play the game without paying a dime. “NFL Superstars,” which comes a week before the football season kicks off, follows EA’s “FIFA Superstars” soccer game for Facebook. That game has about 4 million players.

attention

Obama implicitly acknowledged there was no clear-cut victory “in an age without surrender ceremonies.” As expected, Obama took credit for fulfilling his promise in his campaign and again last year to withdraw more than 90,000 troops over 19 months. “This was my pledge,” he said. Obama acknowledged his disagreement with President George W. Bush. And he did not give credit to Bush’s troop surge that many Republicans — including Rep. Pete King of Seaford — insisted was responsible for what success there is in Iraq. But the president hailed Bush’s patriotism and love of the troops, and urged Americans to “move beyond our differences.” Obama praised the 1.5 million U.S. men and women in uniform who served in Iraq for their “courage and resolve” and the sacrifices they and their families made. He promised to take care of them. “The United States has paid a huge price to put the future of Iraq in the hands of its people,” Obama said. He put the cost at more than 4,400 U.S. lives and $1 trillion — much of it borrowed — which added to the staggering U.S. deficit.

Yet he also signaled that it is time to begin working toward leaving behind the two wars fought on “tight budgets” that he inherited and turning attention to the ailing economy. “We have met our responsibility. Now, it’s time to turn the page,” Obama said. “Today, our most urgent task is to restore the economy, and put the millions of Americans who have lost their jobs back to work,” he said. In the short speech, sitting behind a desk in the newly renovated Oval Office in front of a U.S. flag and family photos, Obama in an even and almost dispassionate tone addressed many audiences on Iraq’s ambiguities and contradictions. He sought to encourage Iraqis and warn those who would prey on it by painting a largely positive picture of Iraq. He nodded to the military and Republicans, saying troop withdrawals from Afghanistan beginning next July will be “determined by conditions on the ground.” But he also reached out to his liberal Democratic base, framing his surge in Afghanistan as a war to contain al-Qaida and break the Taliban, but putting a time limit on it. “Open-ended war,” he said, “serves neither our interests nor the Afghan people’s.”

Beware: You, too, could wind up being Auto-tuned McClatchy Newspapers Back in the olden days, people became stars by having talent and catching a big break. Then came reality television, and suddenly people could become stars by participating in televised singing competitions or finding out, on camera, What Happens When People Stop Being Polite and Start Getting Real. Suddenly, the Internet is offering regular people all new ways to become superstars, and they really don’t have to do anything at all. Well, except somehow catch the attention of the Gregory Brothers, the YouTube sensations also known as the “Auto-Tune the News” guys. The group — Brooklyn-based brothers Michael, Andrew and Evan Gregory and Evan’s wife, Sarah — are best known at the moment for making a star out of Antoine Dodson, a 24-year-old Huntsville, Ala., man who was interviewed on a local television channel about a sexual assault against his sister. His impassioned, anger-fueled interview — in which Dodson colorfully promises to hunt down the perp —

was (perhaps inappropriately) aired at great length by the station, and video of the news story went viral nearly immediately. Then, the Gregory Brothers got ahold of it. The group had already made a bit of a name for itself with its “Auto-Tune The News” web series, in which the techno-savvy brothers take footage of politicians from news programs and speeches and feed it through an autotuner to create a song. The program turns the subjects — Barack Obama, Sarah Palin, Hilary Clinton and now Antoine Dodson — into “unintentional singers.” The Gregory Brothers, who now have a pilot in the works for Comedy Central, first caught my attention when they made a catchy, hilarious tune out of the Double Rainbow Guy, a man who famously became excessively excited while videotaping the appearance of a double rainbow. A few weeks later, Dodson’s interview hit the Gregory Brothers radar, and they turned it into a hip-hop song and video that’s equal parts catchy and hilarious. The video, now called “Bed

Intruder,” took off, and was viewed by more than 7 million people in just 10 days. “Bed Intruder” the song was recently ranked as the Billboard Hot 100’s most popular song across every genre by radio airplay, sales and online streaming. It also became one of iTunes’ top sellers. Just in the past few days, Dodson (who’s getting half of the profits from iTunes sales because he did, the brothers say, write the lyrics) has appeared on “The Today Show,” among other programs, and lyrics from his interview/song have been printed on T-shirts. (“Hide Your Kids. Hide Your Wife.”) The Gregory Brothers’ Comedy Central pilot will apparently show the brothers in action, giving viewers a behind-thescenes look at how they take a ridiculous news story or YouTube video and turn it into an even more ridiculous song. It’s set to air sometime next year. My advice to you: Don’t do anything newsworthy until then. At least not on camera.

Knights and squires from around the Barony of Tir Ysgithr fought for the amusement of the UA community and for Their Excellencies, Baron Sir Tighearnain the Hound and Baroness Sabiha the Serene, or Charles and Renee Amaral. Hosted by the UA branch of the Society for Creative Anachronism, The College of St. Felix, the Renaissance Faire attracted around 120 people last night, half of whom were UA students and Tucsonans with their friends and family. The fair was divided into four sections on the UA Mall. At one end, Lady Ainaiyra al-Rashn, or SCA co-adviser Kelli Daher, led her troupe of belly dancers to entice passersby. If that was not enough to excite their blood, two stages were set up for hand-to-hand combat, one for rapier duelists, another for “hard suits” or armored combatants. A tented pavilion with Renaissance-era crafts bookended the fair. Undeclared freshmen Kahtia Hall and Sarah Valentina Martinelli/Arizona Daily Wildcat Mitchell were in the area and Aiden Bedits, 2, is an eager spectator of the rapier had stopped by to check out tournament. the festivities. “It’s like a different and kooky style, and I like that.

Not that many people have that talent.” After an SCA member explained how members earn titles, Hall and Mitchell decided to duel each other in the crown tournament so that the winner can be crowned as queen while the runner-up can be crowned as princess. After they began a sandal duel, Hall and Mitchell decided to use their Dungeons and Dragons names for their future titles, Lady Mermurladia of Paladia and Lady Cassandra Lita Bonita, respectively. Rapier fighters and hard suits gathered in their respective arenas and split into two teams of five for an all-out melee, a fight between multiple people on opposing sides. As they faced off, the rapier fighters made feints to test each other’s defensive line. The hard suit melee, however, was brutal. Knights and mercenaries howled before charging at each other with their bamboo swords, spears and axes bearing down on steel armor and shields. Each round lasted no more than two minutes. By the end of the night, armored combatants stripped down to lighter clothing and turned toward bagpipes and drums to perform for the finale: a water balloon fight. SCA members and visitors, including Hall and Mitchell, faced off for the last melee. After a thorough soaking, SCA members packed up their wares, cleaned up the Mall and headed home to prepare for their modern lives.

Grigsby bigger, more durable for 2010

By Mike Schmitz Arizona Daily Wildcat

It’s no secret that running back Nic Grigsby has been electric through three years at Arizona, but an injury-riddled 2009 left questions about the senior’s durability. A separated shoulder caused him to miss three full games last season and play injured in six contests, limiting him to a career-low 79 carries – only 26 of which came in Pacific 10 Conference play. The on-and-off production caused people to forget about Grigsby’s 7.2 yards-per-carry average, 207-yard-game against NAU and 50-yard game-winning TD run against Stanford. But Grigsby, who’s shown a new team-first attitude this season, spent the summer with strength coach Corey Edmond adding about 10 pounds of muscle to his shoulders, bringing him to around 200 pounds. “This is the best I’ve felt in a long time,” Grigsby said during training camp. “Coach (Edmond) did a great job. I give it up to coach Ed for the summer ‑ strength wise, weight wise, bulking my shoulders up.” Added head coach Mike Stoops: “Nic looks better, just all the way around better.” Grigsby said that he still feels that he can move just as well with the added weight, so you can still expect to see the devastating cuts and scampers from the senior back. “I still have my speed and bulked my shoulders up a little bit,” Grigsby said. When asked if he had a certain yardage goal in mind Grigsby responded: “Big plays. That’s all I’m thinking. Big plays.” Grigsby does, however, have one thing other than big plays on his mind heading into next season. While most players are targeting the Iowa game, or ASU grudge matches, Grigsby has the Oct. 9 game against Oregon State circled on his calendar. “They’re the ones that (injured) my shoulder,” he explained. “They’re the ones that started the whole trend last year. Oregon State, I’m waiting for them.” It’s been a while since Grigsby has been completely healthy and

But if you want to talk football, whether it’s about the Arizona Wildcats or the X’s and O’s of the game, Garrett Chachere is your guy. I caught up with the Wildcats’ inside receivers coach after practice to pick his brain about the state of the receivers at Arizona and what exactly it takes to be a receiver in college. Q: How are the inside receivers looking this year? A: “Things are great. We’re working hard, competing, and contributing. I’m really pleased with them.” Q: You guys entered 2009 with a bunch of unknowns, but 2010 features a few marquee guys. What do you expect from them this year compared to last year? A: “I expect consistency, and I expect a high level of play, and they know that. Dave Roberts and (William) Bug Wright expect high level of play, and their backups expect high level of play too. I use the term backups, but everybody is going to play. You can’t stay fresh for a whole season with the same guys playing.”

Quick Kicks By Michael Fitzsimmons Arizona Daily Wildcat The Arizona Wildcats soccer team endured a tough opening weekend by dropping its first two matches against the University of San Diego and Pepperdine University. Despite starting the season 0-2, Arizona faced two difficult squads, and there was already plenty to take away from the weekend’s games that shed light on what some of the Wildcats’ keys to success will be.

the first play of the game is going to go crazy.”

Brotherly love

Grigsby’s younger half-brother Terris Jones is on the Arizona roster as a walk-on running back. Jones, who Grigsby considers his full blood brother,

rushed for 1,912 yards and 26 touchdowns as a high school senior and is more than just an add-on according to Stoops. “His brother is a good player,” Stoops said of Jones. “He has legitimate talent; you know he’s not out of place here. He’ll have a chance.”

Arizona soccer looks to move forward following back-to-back losses to start 2010 season in the opening weekend, including international competitor Ana Montoya, strong defender Kenzie Ackerfelds and talented forward Jazmin Ponce. The freshmen class features a wide variety of skill sets that will give Oyen plenty of options to mix and match, and it remains to be seen how the young Wildcats will respond to a rigorous Pacific 10 conference schedule.

Avoiding early deficits: One theme over the weekend was Arizona’s ability to fight back and put together a stronger second half than in the first. However, this meant that the Wildcats were always playing from behind, and in Sunday’s match against Pepperdine, three goals allowed in the first 10 minutes put Arizona away despite battling to lose 4-2. If the Wildcats can establish a mentality of playing behind from kickoff, then they will surprise and beat strong sides.

Goalkeeping: If you take a look at the scoring sheet over the weekend, you’ll see that opponents scored eight goals on Arizona. However, this doesn’t do freshman goalkeeper Lorena Aragon justice, as she earned the praise of head coach Lisa Oyen for her college debut. Aragon made key saves as both matches went on, and according to Oyen, some of the goals allowed were due to errors on part of the defense and not Aragon. Either way, this position is a wildcard for the Wildcats, as Renae Cuellar: Arizona’s they have junior Ashley Jett ready top offensive threat flashed the on the bench with the only other skills that make her dangerous collegiate soccer experience — in every match over the weekTim Glass/Arizona Daily Wildcat freshman Jamie Wilkinson rounds Renae Cuellar scored two goals on Sunday against Pepperdine.

While Oyen was careful not to say that UA will rely on Cuellar to provide all the thunder for offense, she will undoubtedly be the Freshmen Play: With 12 freshmen on the roster, this amount of target for opponents to shut down, which will likely lead to scoryouth can be sliced two ways: positively, in that they will be hun- ing opportunities for her teammates. If Cuellar continues to play gry to rebuild the program, or negatively, in that the team lacks a at an elite level, it will greatly strengthen the chances that the great veteran presence. Seven of the newcomers made their debuts Wildcats have to make some noise in the Pac-10.

Q: How does David Douglas’ move to outside receiver effect the inside receivers? A: “I wish he would come back. We miss David, he was a big part of our group last year because of all the things we talk about with buying into the mindset of football, but I think he’ll stay out there. I feel like David is versatile enough to play out there and thought it would be a seamless transition. He still comes and hangs out with us, we haven’t kicked him out of the family. He’s just on vacation for a little while. But I feel good about the guys we have. We have Richard Morrison, who’s made a great transition from quarterback, behind Bug Wright, and we have Terrence Miller, who played a little bit last year as a true freshman behind David Roberts.” Q: What’s the difference between an inside receiver and an outside receiver? A: “The position that we play, compared to the outside, is different because we have to block linebackers and safeties on run plays, and we have to block at the point of attack. When we catch the ball, we have to be ready to get hit by a safety and it’s a little different getting hit by guys that weigh 225 lbs. as opposed to a cornerback.” Q: Inside receivers, typically, are the smallest guys on the field. How important is the mental aspect of blocking bigger guys? A: “Very much so. You have to develop toughness and have pride. We started last year and instilled that pride, and they’ve really embraced that – that football is a game of tackling and blocking and that they’re tougher than other receivers. The guys that they’re blocking might be bigger than them, but we’re tougher than them and we’re going to scrap with them and we’re going to fight them. It’s a brawl.” Q: What’s the difference, mentally, between blocking a bigger guy, like a linebacker Chachere, page A9

or safety, and blocking a smaller guy like a cornerback? A: “When we block a corner we feel like we should win. When we block a linebacker or a safety, the idea is that, at the end of a 15 round fight, we’ve won about 10-12 rounds. We’re going to lose some, and they’re going to knock us on our butt, but that’s part of the business of what we do. I won’t get mad if we get knocked on our butt, because it’s going to happen. What will make me mad is if we avoid making the block and don’t attack.”

Garrett Chachere

Q: What’s the difference, physically, between blocking a bigger guy, like a linebacker or safety, and stalk blocking a smaller guy like a cornerback? A: “The bigger guys try to run you over so it’s more about driving and being at the point of — being at the point of attack you have to engage right away and be physical at the point of attack. When those linebackers get mad and they get down and they cheapshot you, you’re getting to them and you’re working them. It’s about outworking them once the contact is made. A stalk block is more of a positioning block since the plays might take a while (to get to the outside) so you can’t engage right away, you need to shield them with your body. Smaller guys generally stay outside for contain and try to beat you with their athleticism by going around you.” David Pokress/Newsday

Nick Swisher of the New York Yankees hits a two-run home run in the third inning against the Oakland Athletics at Yankee Stadium in New York on Tuesday.

The Associated Press NEW YORK — Mark Teixeira hit a three-run homer and Curtis Granderson and Nick Swisher also went deep for the Yankees, who beat up on Oakland again in a 9-3 win over the Athletics on Tuesday night. The victory moved the Yankees back into sole possession of first place. Tampa Bay, which lost to Toronto, and New York had spent eight days tied atop the AL East. The Yankees, who came back from a three-run deficit to win 11-5 the night before, jumped on A’s starter Vin Mazzaro right away. Brett Gardner led off the first with a single, and the Yankees scored three runs in the inning, helped by second baseman Mark Ellis’s fielding error and Jorge Posada’s triple. They added two more in the

third when Nick Swisher homered one batter after Mark Teixeira singled with one out. Curtis Granderson hit a one-out solo shot in the fourth before Teixeira hit his 30th homer of the season. Yankees starter Phil Hughes (16-6) walked five but only gave up two runs and four hits in five innings. Chad Gaudin pitched three effective innings in relief, giving up only Daric Barton’s solo shot, and David Robertson finished the sixhitter for New York, which went 16-13 in August. Lost in all the slugging was the end of Marcus Thames’ home run streak. After six homers in five straight starts, Thames went 0 for 4. It wasn’t pretty, either: He struck out three times and fouled out to the catcher his fourth time up.

Mazzaro (6-7) left after allowing nine runs, seven of which were earned, in 3 2-3 innings. He lost his fifth straight decision and hasn’t gotten a win in seven starts since July 24 against the White Sox. The A’s are 4-19 against the Yankees over the past three years — including 1-7 this season. Oakland had an ugly first few innings. In addition to Ellis’ firstinning error, he hit a ball about two feet up the line and then ran right into it for the second out of the third with a man on. Left fielder Jeff Larish badly misplayed the ball on Posada’s triple. His drive caromed off the wall back behind Larish, and the 39-yearold catcher was able to chug in to third ahead of the throw. It was the 10th triple of his career.

Pac-10 volleyball power rankings By Alex Williams Arizona Daily Wildcat

Stanford (3-0) – The fourtime defending conference champions, the Cardinal, are going to be on top of this list until someone knocks them off their perch at the top of the conference. Stanford returns 2009 Pac-10 all-conference selections Cassidy Lichtman and Alix Klineman, who was just named the Pacific 10 Conference player of the week. Washington (2-0)

– Fresh off of a 24-6 record and an NCAA Tournament appearance in 2009, the Huskies return two all-conference selections in seniors Kindra Carlson and Jenna Hagglund. UW looks to be the Pac10’s best shot at dethroning Stanford.

California (2-0)

– After making an Elite Eight appearance in last year’s NCAA tournament, the Golden Bears were voted fifth in the preseason Pac-10 Coaches Poll. Look for California to play the disrespect card, at least early in the season. The Bears must replace Pac-10 Player of the Year Hana Cutura.

Arizona (2-1) – After being eliminated in the first round of the NCAA Tournament, Arizona returns nearly every key contributor from the 2009 team. Senior Paige Weber is ranked second out of all the conference’s active players in service aces with 96 in her career. Head coach Dave Rubio is the active wins leader in the Pac10, with 340 victories in his 19 years at UA. Southern California (3-0) – Want an example

of how deep the Pac-10 is in volleyball? USC is ranked the No. 10 team in the country in the latest AVCA Coaches Poll. The Trojans dropped their second-round matchup against Hawaii in last year’s NCAA Tournament.

UCLA (2-1)

– Ranked the No. 14 team in the nation in the 2009 AVCA poll, the Bruins dropped their last game against Hawaii. UCLA returns All Pac-10 selection Amanda Gil, who is a defensive asset standing at 6-feet-6-inches tall.

Oregon (3-0)

– Ranked at No. 18 in the 2009 AVCA poll, Oregon is the last ranked team in this week’s power rankings. The Ducks need to find a way to replace two All Pac-10 selections from the 2009 season.

Washington State (2-1) – Head coach

Andrew Palileo is the reigning Pac10 Coach of the Year after leading the Cougars to an NCAA tournament appearance in 2009. WSU needs to replace two Pac-10 honorable mention performers, but return Pac-10 all-freshman performers Oceana Bush and Rachel Todorovich.

Oregon State (0-3) – One of

only two Pac10 teams to not make it to the Big Dance in 2009, the Beavers are in for a rebuilding year after replacing All Pac-10 selection Rachel Rourke.

Arizona State (1-1)

- The Devils went 3-15 in the Pac-10 last year, so there’s only one way the team can go from here: up. The lone bright spot in 2009 was freshman Ashley Kastl.

Q: It’s third-and-three in a tight game and you call a run to the outside, what inside receiver do you want making that key block on the edge? A: “I know it sounds politically correct, but I wouldn’t have a problem with any of them, and that’s why I’m happy coaching them. During practice I put all of them in those positions because the guy that I might want to make that block could get hurt in the first quarter, and that third-andthree might happen in the fourth quarter and somebody has to do it.” Q: In a nutshell, give me the job description of an inside receiver. A: “Our job is to get first downs by making catches and to get first downs by making blocks on run plays.”

Club Congress celebrates 25 years Bands from venue’s history to play during weekend festivities

By Miranda Butler Arizona Daily Wildcat Three days, more than thirty bands, a record exchange, hot dogs and barbecues … it isn’t Woodstock, but it is awesome. This weekend, the club at historic Hotel Congress is hosting a three-day festival of music and memories. And they know how to have a good time. Hotel Congress has been around since 1919; the club was added in 1985. Since then, Club Congress has earned local recognition as the city’s best dance club and national acclaim as one of the top clubs in the United States by publications such as Entertainment Magazine. They’ve spent the past 25 years hosting unique performances, such as DJs, poets and all kinds of bands. These exciting events have created endless memories for

Tucsonans and tourists alike, who havegrown to love Club Congress’ events as a part of downtown Tucson’s heart and soul. This brings us to their anniversary festival this Labor Day weekend. Club Congress has a reputation to uphold, so you can expect the best from the party they’re throwing. Their impressive line-up of bands includes Gentlemen Afterdark, Phantom Limbs, Fish Karma and the Love Revolution, just to name a few. There’s also a record exchange fair on Saturday, Sept. 4 and a Sonoran Barbeque on Sunday evening. The cost is only $10 per day or $25 for the whole weekend. Remember, this party could be as legendary as the club itself. Check out the hotel’s website for the complete listing and scheduling of bands, events and performances, as well as information on how to buy tickets.

“The Sexy Book of Sexy Sex” is more silly than sexy. Co-written by couple Rich Blomquist (writer for “The Daily Show with Jon Stewart” ) and Kristen Schaal (of “Flight of the Conchords” ) , the book is engorged with vulgarities and “tips and tricks” to enlighten the reader on a path to a sexier and more virulent lifestyle. Stuffed with illustrations, the book covers everything from masturbation techniques to the history of sex. For the most part, the book is less informative and more facetiously humorous. Trying to expose sex myths and converse about coming out is an effort that falls flat in the shadow of the cringeinducing text. Though for your coffee table, this book is just provocative enough, and at the very least, worth a laugh.

GRATUITOUS GORE. Really, it’s shocking. Like the BODIES exhibit but with jagged incisions.

You don’t need to make the pricey pilgrimage to Phoenix to see movies in IMAX anymore. This Friday, the AMC Loews 15 Theater at the Foothills Mall will be unveiling its new IMAX screen. Here’s what you should know about the new theater:

The new screen is 47 feet, seven inches wide and 24 feet tall. The IMAX auditorium at the Harkins Arizona Mills Theater still has us beat with a screen that’s about eight stories wide and six stories tall.

The Foothills Mall also added a custom surround sound system to accommodate the unique size, seating capacity and acoustic paneling of the auditorium.

Several rows of seats had to be cut to make room for the new screen. Theater 2 had 402 seats before the conversion and has 342 seats now. Existing seats were rearranged for the new geometry of the screen. “Every seat has a better view,” said Justin Scott, AMC’s director of public relations.

In addition to the new screen, sound system and IMAX Digital Projection System , the conversion also involved a cosmetic overhaul, adding new signs and lights to the auditorium.

SUNDAY SEPT. 5

Vinyl Revival 2010 at Hotel Congress The fourth annual record revival at Hotel Congress is Arizona’s largest independent record fair. This year, it will be featured as a part of Club Congress’ 25th anniversary party, which showcases an exciting combination of local and national musicians. The sale itself hopes to revive vinyl through some of the best bands in Tucson’s history, so it promises to be a hotspot for record enthusiasts from all walks of life. The record fair is free to the public, although you may also be interested in paying to attend the show at Club Congress while you’re there.

Tucson Motor Show The Tucson Motor Show is one of the largest events for motor enthusiasts in Southern Arizona, expecting to bring in over 10,000 visitors this weekend. It features hundreds of cars and demonstrations, with over three hundred classic and antique cars, trucks and motorcycles. The show also promotes auto collecting, custom painting and renovating.

Important local poet to jump-start Poetry Center’s 50th By Maitri Mehta Arizona Daily Wildcat This year marks the 50th anniversary of the UA’s Poetry Center, and to celebrate its rich history, the staff has compiled a pantheon of poets for monthly readings. The celebration begins on Sept. 2 with a reading by award-winning Arizona poet Richard Shelton. “Shelton is one of the progenitors of Poetry Center,” says Gail Browne, executive director of the Poetry Center. “He’s not only an integral part of our history, but a part of our present. It seemed like a really appropriate way to begin the series.” Both Richard Shelton and his wife, Lois Shelton, have been longstanding supporters and players in the Richard Shelton Poetry Center’s history. Both Poet have served as presidents of the Poetry Center — Lois for over 20 years. Richard Shelton is not only a part of the Poetry Center’s past, but of their present and future. The duo has made such an impact on the literary landscape of the center’s history that they have been honored with a permanent place in its architecture. On the east side of the building, a wall enclosing the garden has been dedicated as the Shelton Wall. A series of holes marking the façade is actually a line of Richard Shelton’s poetry in binary code. In 1974, Shelton initiated the Creative Writing Workshops at the Arizona State Prison, a program that the Poetry Center has collaborated with him on for the past three decades. The program is

still flourishing and has served as the precedent for a number of other writing workshops throughout United States prisons, introducing inmates to the liberating lyricism of poetry and creative writing. Shelton is the author of numerous works, both fiction and nonfiction, including “Crossing the Yard: Thirty Years as a Prison Volunteer” (2007), which chronicles his experiences working in the prison system. This Thursday at the Poetry Center he will be reading from his most recent work, The Last Person to Hear your Voice, as well as excerpts from his various other books. Like the desert he is drawn to, Shelton’s poetry is filled with beautiful imagery and soft, easy lyricism. He focuses on the strange and unique identity of desert dwellers. As Gail Browne, executive director of the Poetry Center since 2002, says, “Poetry offers us a fresh perspective and opens us up. It makes us expansive.” Shelton allows us an opportunity to reexamine ourselves in the singular landscape of the Southwest. Shelton will be available for a question and answer session prior to the reading at 7 p.m. The reading will begin at 8 p.m. at the Poetry Center.

Five Guys prepares to open its doors By Steven Kwan ARIZONA DAILY WILDCAT Open secret: Five Guys Burgers and Fries has set up shop in town. Not-so-open secret: The Virginia-based hamburger chain is opening the doors to its first Tucson franchise after Labor Day. It is taking over the former Hollywood Video location at the northeast corner of North Campbell Avenue and East Glenn Street. Five Guys has a simple and straightforward menu — burgers, fries, hot dogs and soda — and red-and-white tile decor. Customers can customize their burgers with 15 toppings that include grilled mushrooms, onions and A-1 sauce. Doug Vaughan and Jeff Noyce, co-franchisees of Tucson’s Five Guys, became interested in the business two years ago. “I had a buddy of mine who went to Five Guys. He said, ‘Hey, you’ve got to try it. The food is excellent.’ So I did. It was really the food, it was really the experience I had that ultimately drove our interest to look at this business opportunity,” Vaughan said. Five Guys has been expanding its brand ever since it began selling franchise rights outside Virginia and Washington, D.C. in 2003. The chain is expected to have 775 franchises by the end of this year, according to Jerry Murrell, Five Guys founder, president and CEO, in Nation’s Restaurant News. The burger chain often receives praise from newspapers, magazines and bloggers that serve in place of the company’s absence of advertising. In a NBC Nightly News special last year, President Barack Obama made an unscheduled stop to a Five

FIVE GUYS FACTS

• Five Guys does not oﬀer coupons, discounts or specials.

• None of the Five Guys have a drive-thru, oﬀer milkshakes or use food freezers. Founder Jerry Murrell did not want any of these features in his restaurants in order to maintain quality.

• Free peanuts are oﬀered, but customers cannot take them outside. The company cites risk of peanut allergies for this policy.

Five Guys Burgers and Fries co-franchisees Doug Vaughn (left), 56, and Jeff Noyce, 55, take a break from working to help finish their new store Tuesday. Jeff and Doug permanently relocated from Kansas City to Tucson where they have built the new Five Guys location on the northeast corner of Glenn Street and Campbell Avenue, from the ground up.

Guys in Washington, D.C. Zagat Survey, a publication that relies on participant reviews, declared Five Guys as its best burger in its Fast-Food Survey released earlier this month, beating last year’s winner, In-N-Out. College students in Tucson have many places to get a burger

with choices ranging from Burger King to Frog & Firkin to Zinburger. Vaughan said he believes Five Guys can still fill an untapped niche for anyone looking for a good burger. “As far as burgers go, I believe our food speaks for itself,” he said.

Dine and unwind at Om

By Ali Freedman Arizona Daily Wildcat

Mike Christy/Arizona Daily Wildcat

Sushi chef Terry Chin prepares a plate of vegetarian rolls Tuesday at Om Modern Asian Kitchen.

Om Modern Asian Kitchen is a happy hour haven for UA students. Offering an array of cocktails, beers, wines, sushi and Asian cuisine, Om offers a unique taste. Owned by the same people behind a string of Asian restaurants — including Neo of Melaka, known for their authentic Malaysian food — this new restaurant comes with a solid reputation. For the college student budget, lunch or happy hour are the best ways to go. For about $12, a drink and dish can be all yours. Happy hour runs from 3 p.m. to 6 p.m. daily and late-night takes place Thursday through Sunday from 10 p.m. to midnight. Cocktails are only $5 and an array of sushi is offered at a special price. Although the full prices aren’t bad — entrées are around $14 and sushi rolls range from $3 to $5 — the happy hour deals are worth checking out. On Sundays, Om offers Asian style tapas until 6 p.m. The food is great and the staff

is knowledgeable. Om is Zen. It’s quiet and calm — a nice alternative to the hustle and bustle of University Boulevard or Ra Sushi. The relaxed and laid back atmosphere makes Om perfect for a nice date or intimate dinner party.

IF YOU GO Om Modern Asian Kitchen 1765 E. River Rd. Monday through Wednesday, 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. Late-night Thursday through Sunday, 10 p.m. to midnight I invited out my friend Kim for a Saturday night dinner date. We ordered a watermelon salad ($7) to begin and it was to die for. This may very well be one of my favorite salads ever. Fresh, ripe watermelon is topped with a cucumber slaw and drizzled with a savory dressing. As weird as it may sound, the almost spicy blend of savory dressing and

sweet watermelon is perfect. The flavor profile is right on. For our main course we ordered two cucumber rolls, an avocado roll, eel roll and sweet egg nigiri. The sushi was great — traditional without too many bells and whistles. The simple, well puttogether rolls complimented our salad nicely. To finish off our meal we indulged in the seasonal stone fruit napoleon, which featured spiced mascarpone, cherries and peaches. Layered in between crispy fried wontons, the cream and fruit blended well. It was a great way to end the meal. Outside of delicious food, great staff and a calm and cool atmosphere, Om has a great online deal. Via restaurant.com, anyone can order a discounted printable gift card. Although there is a minimum purchase and it can only be redeemed during dinner, it’s well worth it. I paid $5 online for a $25 gift card. Kim and I only paid $12.55 plus tip for our meal, saving around $18. This in itself makes Om worth a visit. Om is open daily at 11 a.m. The full menu is available online at om-az.com.

Flandrauâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s laser show a trip worth taking

UA communications senior opens indie label in Arizona, Texas

Led Zeppelin and Pink Floyd complement science centerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;3D for your mindâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; By Graham Thompson ARIZONA DAILY WILDCAT Weekend visitors to Flandrau Science Center this fall are in for a mind-bending display of laser light animation interposed with classic rock and electronic music. This spectacular show juxtaposes the music of Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin and various artists such as Fatboy Slim and The Chemical Brothers in three separate shows Friday and Saturday nights, beginning at 9 p.m. Each show is approximately 45 minutes in length. There is also a matinee show at 5:30 p.m. if you are an early bird. Fridayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s matinee features Pink Floydâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Dark Side of the Moon and Saturdayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s is dedicated to Led Zeppelin. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a fair price of $7.50 with a student ID, and this price includes entry to an exhibition celebrating 50 years of the laser, just outside the screening room. Flandrau has harkened back to its classic â&#x20AC;&#x2122;90s laser shows; although this time itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not like anything youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve seen previously, because the technology of the laser is now incomparable to

that in the â&#x20AC;&#x2122;90s, let alone the first laser in 1950. The lasers create colored shapes that vibrate and snake around the domed ceiling. Concentric circles, like tree rings, pull you up out of your seat into the night sky. A multihued vortex of lightning unfolds and an animation of a man in a chair rotates towards you, so close that you dive through his eyes. Digital Media and Marketing Director Sean Fitzpatrick says, â&#x20AC;&#x153;What is really unique about the laser show is that it is an abstract visual art form matched to music. Even if youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not into the music, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a great way to be introduced to Led Zeppelin and Pink Floyd; they take you to a different place.â&#x20AC;? You might be thinking that this is colossal waste of time. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not. You might also be slightly resistant to pushing back your Friday evening plans. You neednâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be. You might want to keep your earlier plans only if you are epileptic; flashing lights might make for an unpleasant evening. Other than that, you havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t a reason not to go to what Fitzpatrick and the Flandrau crew calls â&#x20AC;&#x153;3D for

your mind.â&#x20AC;? Depending on the night that you go, the use of a smoke machine and strobe light, as well as a star field projected onto the dome inside the theater will enhance your experience. While the songs and the lasers will be the same for each show, the experience will certainly be different every night because of the planetariumâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s previously built-in effects, used at the discretion of the operating technician. Nearly all the images that you see do not recur, with the exception of a few of the animations (they appear several times in one song). It is difficult to put into words what this experience will be like for you, simply because each show caters to a different audience, not just visually but musically. It reminded me of being six or seven years old and pushing on my eyeballs late at night to see what looked like stars and nebulas. But it is the kind of show that is conducive to any experience you want to have. Like most of what we do in life, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s what you make of it and this is definitely worth your effort.

BODIES exhibit caters to your smallest friends and siblings By Charles Zoll Arizona Daily Wildcat With another gig as babysitter for the weekend, what better place than the BODIES Exhibition to tire those kids out and show them how their own bodies work? Now in its final weeks in Tucson, the BODIES Exhibition showcases its array of polymerpreserved human body specimens during its special Funday Monday event this Labor Day. A tour inside the well-lit Rialto Building reveals exposed musculatures of intense athletes and the detailed display of all things human. Buy one adult ticket at regular price and bring along your adventurous little sister or cousin for free on Monday, Sept. 6. The day will be jam-packed with an activity station featuring a scavenger hunt specially designed for children ages 3-12, along with access to the full exhibit. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The way the displays are set up showcases the body in an interesting way, versus just seeing a heart, for instance,â&#x20AC;? says Kelly LovellTaylor, Tucson media contact for the BODIES Exhibition, â&#x20AC;&#x153;It could be just science, but we wanted to give a new perspective to such a familiar thing.â&#x20AC;?

Rialto building 300 E. Congress St. When: Monday, Sept. 6 from 10 a.m.-8 p.m.

The BODIES Exhibition includes sagital sections showing how human organs fit into the their bodies and will show at the Rialto building until Oct. 3. The exhibition consists of preserved human corpses in an effort to illustrate human development, health implications and the appearance of the human form beneath the surface.

While most students are on Facebook, UA communications senior Ryan Naboshek is reading music blogs and devoting his extra time to his new music label. When Naboshek created the label in February with the help of high school friend Zach Olschwanger, it was on a whim but not out of nowhere. â&#x20AC;&#x153;When I was 15, I recorded my own CD and distributed the 100-150 copies myself,â&#x20AC;? Naboshek said. He also cites his UA â&#x20AC;&#x153;Careers in Musicâ&#x20AC;? class as a source of inspiration. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The label mostly stems from a common interest,â&#x20AC;? Naboshek said, adding that he and Olschwanger agreed on â&#x20AC;&#x153;where (they) saw the industry going and how to take advantage of it.â&#x20AC;? In this case, the duo decided to take advantage by dividing and conquering both Tucson and Texas, where Naboshek and Olschwanger are from. WARecordsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; goal is to spread creativity and music while providing a support group for musicians and emerging artists. They work with the musiciansâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; resources and help guide them down the path to success. In the end, the artist has complete creative and business freedom without putting any money up front. Naboshek stresses this teach-a-manto-fish ideology: â&#x20AC;&#x153;I wanted the artists to be independent and all about selfdistribution,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We are not a traditional record label,â&#x20AC;? said Olschwanger, whose official title is vice president of operations and management. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t bank on our bands. Our main focus is artist development and teaching artists to

Jay-Z and DvoĹ&#x2122;ĂĄk: Not as different as they seem

Welcome Back Wildcats!

Water St.

and the culture around them. Same for mainstream music? You bet. In fact, songwriters and composers both understand that they need to make bold advancements in their genre and communicate common, yet difficult emotions, in order to get their money and street cred. During my car ride, education packed with songs from his hit â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Black Albumâ&#x20AC;? it was pretty clear what made people call Jay-Z the shit. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s become a standard that composers and songwriters pursue their art with the goal of taking the rural into the urban â&#x20AC;&#x201D; wrenching their previously unknown pasts (or current situations) from the depths to give us an exclusive screening. The common ground between composers of classical music and lyricists of popular is in their situations: Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re all messed up, weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re all human. For popular, this situation is articulated explicitly, and for classical the goal is to disguise it. In any given Jay-Z track, you can gather all of the meaning and implications of what heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s trying to communicate just by understanding the lyrics. In the case of

classical such a road map is ambiguous. Unversed in the complexities of late19th Century American society, Antonin DvoĹ&#x2122;ĂĄk (pronounced like VOR-shock, which coincidentally might make a good rapper name) found himself bewildered by the nuances between the music of his native Czechoslovakia and the folk tunes he was hoping to be inspired by in America â&#x20AC;&#x201D; grappling with individual heritage, as we hear in Jay-Zâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s music, is a complex pursuit. For DvoĹ&#x2122;ĂĄk, the culture of native lands brought him from rural Europe to middle America, in a turn making him realize the similarity between African American and Native American spirituals (where he was looking) and distant Irish and Czech folk tunes (what he knew). But the melodies we hear in his widely admired â&#x20AC;&#x153;New Worldâ&#x20AC;? Symphony are none of those sounds in particular â&#x20AC;&#x201D; to me, in fact, it rings of Asia â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s your beauty.

TMA draws attention to the abstract

craigslist >

Making the social world a little quirkier

The Internet is constantly redefining today’s social world. Volumes could be written about the implications of simply pressing “like” on someone’s Facebook activity. Yet, a perhaps less-noticed but endlessly fascinating niche of the social net is Craigslist.org’s Missed Connections. Never before has pouring your heart out to the anonymous world of the net been so simple or so local. But is this a good thing? Posts vary, but the basic idea falls into one of these categories:

1 Erich Healy/Arizona Daily Wildcat

Pima Community College art student, Twyla Coleman, reflects on “Smokey the Bear 1, 1994” by Carolyn Lavender at the Tucson Museum of Art on Tuesday. Other examples of art from movements including Surrealism and Minimalism are a part of the “Into the Void: Abstract Art, 1948 – 2008” exhibit from the museum’s permanent collection.

Nonobjective expression celebrated in new exhibition

By Miranda Butler Arizona Daily Wildcat It’s a line! It’s a shape! Who knows what ‘it’ is? This summer, the Tucson Museum of Art brings us a thoughtful collection of abstract artwork. “Into the Void” is an exhibition running from July through September this year at the Tucson Museum of Art. The museum’s official website describes the collection as “a celebration of the diversity of non-objective artistic expression” featuring works from various artists, media and styles. It boasts pieces from surrealist artist Max Ernst, abstract expressionist Paul Jenkins and even a few works by Bahaus members such as Josef Albers. There are paintings, sculptures, photographs, mixed media and all kinds of artwork.

Erich Healy/Arizona Daily Wildcat

UA College of Fine Arts professor Andrew Polk’s “Untitled” acrylic on paper is part of the array of abstract art pieces in the “Into the Void” exhibit.

if you go “Into the Void” Tucson Museum of Art 140 N. Main Ave. Closes Sept. 26 $8 general admission, $3 students, $6 seniors

As I made my way through the exhibit, I couldn’t help but notice the diversity. Some pieces were tiny, and certain ones could fill an entire wall. Plenty were black and white, but others contained the whole spectrum of colors. Not to mention the subject matter, which could be as simple as one color of paint on a canvas or as complex as a panoramic drawing of the Grand Canyon. At first glance, it seemed that some of these pieces could mean nothing, could be anything or were just far too unconventional to represent something real. But as I began to focus on each individual work and understand the story of its artist, the exhibit started to make sense. One particular painting that caught my eye was an untitled work by Andrew Polk. At first, I saw nothing more than a mishmash of colors and lines. Diagonal brown brushstrokes, a splash of teal, a yellow stripe, some raindrops (maybe). But then I read the accompanying plaque, which described Polk as a man “obsessed with tragedy, disaster, and war.” Contemplating the painting again, I saw that it truly was chaotic. The brown brushstrokes were frantic; the shade of yellow was nauseating. The raindrop-like shapes made no sense at all, moving in a different direction than everything else and intersecting the other lines undesirably. Although the painting didn’t make its message obvious, it did succeed in representing something very real. As I became absorbed in the piece, I made a connection to that feeling of tragedy, entropy and loss. It was fascinating. Polk’s work expressed emotion loosely and without words by simplifying it into a dynamic arrangement of abstract images, colors and lines. I also made a connection to a painting by Dorothy Fratt, entitled “Great Day”, as well as a collage called “All the Things in my Apartment” by Paho Mann. As I further explored the exhibition, I realized that the selection of pieces featured in “Into the Void” all have a similar effect. For a place so silent and still, the exhibit’s walls are bursting with excitement. The shapes and shades of every piece have some kind of meaning or story, and once you begin to discover their messages, even the simplest of paintings can come to life. Some people may look down on abstract artists because they don’t paint scenes that we can immediately identify, but when it comes down to it, abstract pieces represent the thoughts and feelings that aren’t always physical or tangible. If you enjoy the mystery of non-objective artwork or feel like discovering the deepest thoughts of an abstract artist, check out “Into the Void” before it closes this fall. You might be lucky enough to connect with a few of the unusual and inspiring pieces of the collection.

The Angry Breakup Rant: Broken hearts use Missed Connections to pledge their hatred of an ex to the infinite reaches of the Internet.

The Sighting: Someone is out in public, notices someone else and is struck by love/interest/attraction. This person hopes that this missed connection post will bring their infatuation out of anonymity.

The Reunion: A longlost friend hopes to reunite through invoking someone’s name on Craigslist.

The Creepy Post: Usually involves someone posting about a person who they see every day or habitually. Users likely figure that Craiglist is a place to proclaim their love/curiosities/confessionals about said person without them finding out. Missed Connections takes something completely common — losing something you never knew you had — and gives it an amplified volume beyond its mundane reality. This phenomenon isn’t something barely used or obscure. Take a look on Tucson Craigslist, and you’ll see daily messages fighting the specter of lost opportunity in your own town. There might even be one about you. What does it all mean? For some, something fun to read. For others? Perhaps a chance at the ever-elusive and mythical “true love.” Or maybe a horrifyingly awkward realization. Missed Connections adds another method of expression to the already seemingly exhausted list. Anonymity is a powerful thing, but if the intended audience doesn’t read Craigslist, what’s the point? Perhaps this enables people to be overly dramatic or too shy. Or maybe these posts are a new form of courtship. But maybe Missed Connections isn’t such a bad thing. It’s definitely a hilarious read, despite being another way to make us feel way too important about ourselves. — Kelly Mejdrich See for yourself at tucson.craigslist.org/mis

One man’s parachute

Found art manifests itself in World War II wedding dress By Graham Thompson Arizona Daily Wildcat

They say that one man’s trash is another man’s treasure. This unequivocal statement brings to mind the green movement, and the men and women who turn out trashcans in highly populated areas in search of Coca-Cola bottles and beer cans, cardboard and newspapers. These environmentallyconscious souls turn something useless into something reusable; here, it is their actions we should most admire. The other kind of dumpster divers have an intrinsic knack for finding the odd scrap of metal or card table that can be painted, or a few knick knacks that can be molded into a statuette for onlookers to admire. This sort of sustainability upholds our sense of the aesthetic as well as our planet. This is the epitome of found object art: taking something one finds in the trash, on the street, on the dusty shelf of the deceased, something that is meaningful beyond belief that you want to hold on to in a different form and turning into something beautiful and admirable. building features a spectacular replication of a ships prow, lest we forget. But imagine how many pieces of found object art fell from the sky and saved a man’s life? I recently attended the wedding of a family friend in Sierra Vista and heard a startling story about found object art. As it happened, the bride’s dress had been worn at two other weddings: her mother’s and

Towards the end of The Second World War, Colonel Kondziolka (the late grandfather of the bride) was flying a B-17 over occupied France, headed to Germany on a bombing mission. The planes were flying in formation, meaning that the planes were close together. One of the planes flew too close to his and swung in over the top of his plane, splitting the cockpit in half. Colonel Kondziolka managed, with the help of his silk parachute, to land safely into occupied France. For saving his

Found object art possesses a dynamic duality. It is new and old. It has two stories to tell. It is like an ugly but loveable stray: it catches your attention and evokes an emotion not far from pity. You take it home, clean it up, reinvent it. It holds a new kind of charm, yet part of it is the same as it was when you first found it. The creator sees it in two lights, but in the eye of another beholder, it is purely a reinvention. Found object art combines two perspectives. You take something out of one context and put it into another. Imagine taking a bunch of seashells and gluing them together to make a sea turtle. Our own campus boasts an example of found object art. The traffic circle outside of the Student Union Memorial Center surrounds a tiled statue upon which is propped a diamond shape. When it is windy outside the objects that upon first glance appear as chimes, ring. These chimes are 1,511 dog tags that serve as memorial to the USS Arizona. Their diamond shape alludes to the mast on a ship. The design of the student union itself is a memorial for the USS Arizona, one of the ships that was sunk during the bombing of Pearl Harbor on 7 December, 1941. Battle ship anchor chains below the fountain near the bookstore remind us of the waters covering the USS Arizona. The north side of the

life, the He Colonel saved the silk parachute. When he returned to Mrs. K, ready to marry, silk was far too expensive to purchase for wedding gowns, as it was being used for parachutes. The Colonel brought the silk to a tailor and a wedding gown was fashioned which has been worn at three weddings. Mother, Daughter, and Granddaughter have all worn the parachute.The dress itself is long-sleeved; with a corseted back that buttons up to the shoulder blades. It has a sweetheart neckline, seed pearls embroidered around the bodice and a long train: The very essence of found object art. We know its story and understand its duality. My favorite quality about art is that every time you see it, you acquire something new and special, even if it is old and worn. This is why found object art is so extraordinary; if a picture tells a thousand words, then a piece of found object art has twice as much to tell. It harbors two distinctive stories, be it dog tags on our tiled monument or a silk wedding dress made from the parachute of a devoted fiancé. It just goes to show how much can be renewed and therefore remembered. So the next time you find yourself throwing out the knick knacks from your desk drawer or the cardboard boxes used to move you into the dorms remember, that with any luck, you may very well see them again.

Pop music leans on lyrics

continued from page B5

Dvořák, and you have a similarly uncomplicated structure that is prized in the many worlds of popular music. Paradoxically enough, Dvořák and the classical scene make the concept of nationality cross-cultural — they bring their pasts into the public as Jay-Z does, but with a twist: Anyone can appreciate it. To feel the words of Jay-Z you need to know English and you need to have some concept of the innercity poor. Most Americans have an understanding of this built into our humanity, but since his lyrics provide, what would we do without them? Of course, we wouldn’t call it rap, because lyrical ingenuity is the beauty of rap. So what about other mainstream music? Is music an art that needs a language in order to understand it? The classical world says not necessarily, while the popular world says most of the time. They’re both right. Listening to Dvořák’s image of the New World and the sounds of a Czech in America, I think I’d be lacking something if I were in the company of Jay-Z: Those layers. And maybe that’s okay. I have different moods, just as everyone else does. I’m not always listening to classical music because sometimes I enjoy jazz or folk; and those more in tune to mainstream would do well to expand their horizons as well. So I may not be listening much to Jay-Z, but I may have experienced a “Moment of Clarity” in that car ride.
