The Daily Wildcat UA Main Library employees were surprised last week to find their first case of bedbugs — an incident that cost the UA $3,500.

A library employee noticed a dead bug last Wednesday in the downstairs computer lab area open to non-UA affiliated community members. Unsure of what the bug could be, the employee called Facilities Management, according to Robyn Huff-Eibl, team leader for access and information services for the UA Main Library, Fine Arts Library, Science-Engineering Library and Arizona Historical Society Libraries and Archives.

Huff-Eibl said a bedbug incident has never happened in the Main Library before.

Facilities Management identified the insect as a bedbug and, within 24 hours, blocked off the area and treated it for additional bedbugs that were found, according to Christopher Kopach, assistant vice president of Facilities Management. University Termite and Pest Control, an outside company contracted by both the UA’s Risk Management Services and Facilities Management, disinfected the area and removed the bedbugs using chemical bait traps, chemical treatment, hot water extraction and upholstery cleaning.

“We worked very well together to get this issue resolved,” Kopach

A trio of instructors with more than 75 combined years of military service are working to bring continuity and expertise to the UA’s Reserve Officers’ Training Corps.

Instructors at the UA’s Reserve Officers’ Training Corps seek to train students to become commissioned officers in the Air Force, Army, Navy and Marine Corps.

Students are offered scholarship contracts that require them to perform a term of obligatory service upon graduation from the ROTC program. The terms can last from four to 10

years depending on the branch of the military and conditions of the contract. Army ROTC graduates may be commissioned for active or reserve duty, while Air Force and Navy graduates incur a mandatory term of active duty.

University presidents focus on state economy

BY STEPHANIE CASANOVA

The Daily Wildcat The UA and ASU presidents jointly addressed the universities’ roles in economic growth and success in the state on Wednesday — a first for the annual TREO luncheon.

More than 600 business, government and academic leaders in Arizona gathered to listen to the presidents at Tucson Regional Economic Opportunities’ eighth annual luncheon at the Westin La Paloma Resort and Spa. UA President Ann Weaver Hart and Arizona State University President Michael M. Crow discussed the importance of fostering talent in the workforce in order to reach economic goals in step with the state.

The discussion focused on how talent leads to economic growth, the role of universities in fostering this talent and how the community will work with the universities to reach this goal.

Hart said the definition of talent needs to become more flexible in order to further the

“Our main function … [at] the Mountain West Preparedness Emergency Response Learning Center is to train our public health work force to deal with emergencies that impact public health,” said Brenda Granillo, project director of the MWPERLC, “but the ultimate goal of the program obviously is

the Marines, began his military career as a Naval ROTC midshipman in 1984, and was commissioned as a second lieutenant four years later. During his time on active duty, Kuhn was trained and deployed in more than 30 countries, including Iraq, Japan and Korea.

Kuhn, who specialized in amphibious armored vehicles, was at one point in charge of about 230 vehicles and 1,200 marines as a battalion commander.

He said his favorite job, though, is his current position instructing the young men and women of the UA ROTC. “It’s a lot of fun,” he said. “[The cadets and midshipmen] are choosing to serve the country over themselves, which is pretty impressive. It’s fun working with that kind of person.”

Colonel Brian Donahoo

As he grew up a Navy brat, Colonel Brian Donahoo’s involvement with the military dates back to an early age.

After joining the Air Force as an enlisted member, he went to work fixing C-130’s at a base in North Carolina. He then left the military for two years to earn his degrees in math and computer science before returning to the Air Force and training as a pilot.

order to assist the community, Hart added. Categorizing majors and setting boundaries in academics prevents the UA from developing new ways of educating its students, according to Hart.

“The boundaries around disciplines that we have drawn don’t serve cutting-edge knowledge,” Hart said, “so it limits [students’] ability to be successful.”

Crow focused more on the idea of the Tucson and Phoenix metro areas working together to compete against other growing regional cities. Hart said she and Crow both believe working together to produce talent for the state is key. Traditionally, Hart added, Tucson and Phoenix compete against each other instead of pulling together.

In order to have successful economic growth, Crow said, community leaders and university presidents need to take into account what the community wants and make a plan to reach that goal while keeping their competitors in mind. Some of these goals for the community include higher graduation rates and more opportunities to advance in the workforce, Crow added.

“You have to be able to put everything on the table for the community to be able to obtain those objectives,” Crow said.

At the end of the luncheon, audience members asked Crow and Hart questions, one of which focused on the role of arts and culture in the state’s economic growth.

Hart said making existing resources, such as museums, more accessible to the community is an important part of the state’s growth. Crow went further to say investment in culture and the arts is necessary for successful economic development.

Javier Duran, director of the Confluence: Center for Creative Inquiry, said he was pleased to hear about the role of the arts in the economy and in the community. According to Duran, the center’s main goal is to connect the UA to the Tucson community through cultural events and collaboration.

“It also signals that the mission of the Confluence Center is perfectly aligned with the mission of our university and the leadership that we’re taking in the state,” Duran said. “I was really excited to hear [that].”

off and on since 1990. He also held an administrative position at the Pentagon for a time.

His most significant deployment, however, was on the ground. In 2009, he was stationed in an embassy in Baghdad, where he served as chief of staff for the Force Strategic Engagement Cell, an outfit designed to reconcile differences between warring factions in Iraq.

In his current role as a professor of aerospace studies with the ROTC program, Donahoo said he thoroughly enjoys helping develop the “leaders of tomorrow.”

“This is really about what’s good for our country,” he said, adding that while people join the military for a variety of reasons, those who stay in the military “do so out of that sense of service, and because they really enjoy what they’re doing.”

Lieutenant Colonel Benjamin J. Walters

Fueled by a desire to travel the world while serving his country, Lieutenant Colonel Benjamin J. Walters, professor and head of the Department of Military Science, Tactics, and Leadership, enlisted in the Army at the age of 17.

“The Army offered to send me to Europe so I was like, ‘Sign me up. I’m ready to go,’” he said.

He served as a field artillery soldier for five years, then decided to pursue a career

as an officer through the Army’s Green to Gold program.

After receiving his bachelor’s degree in political science, Walters was commissioned as a logistics officer, meaning he dealt with the procurement and transportation of supplies for the military.

During his 17 years as an officer, he was deployed to countries including Saudi Arabia, Kosovo, Germany, Iraq and Afghanistan.

Watching the cadets grow both personally and as soldiers is the most rewarding part of Walters’ job, he said.

“Holistically, there is a reason why we have a military, and that’s to protect our freedoms and our way of life,” he said, “so we need quality people to man our Army, our Air Force, our Navy, our Marine Corps.”

One student under the instruction of Walters is Cadet Major Charles Dearmore, a history senior who will join the Arizona National Guard after he graduates. He credits the strength of the UA ROTC to its very experienced instructors.

“The instructors have a huge wealth of knowledge,” he said. “They’re always willing to take a minute and give you advice if you need it. It’s great.”

Although the experience has been mentally and physically demanding, Dearmore said he’s grateful for the discipline, skills and friends he has acquired during his time in training. Some

instructors said it is this motivation that qualifies as the best part of the job.

“It’s really great to see that transformation in these young people,” Walters said. “They’re so ready to get out there and [get commissioned] because they’ve spent the last three or four years training for this event … They know they’re ready, and that’s the most amazing aspect of this job.”

to reduce mortality and morbidity in a case of a public health emergency.”

Although other groups applied for the grant, the UA was the only one to get approval from the CDC. “I think we have an excellent team of individuals with the expertise required to fill this need,” said Jeff Burgess, lead researcher of the program. “We have a great track record working with partners both in our state and region. We have a long history of working with the training of public health professionals.”

The researchers will take an all-hazard approach, which means it includes natural disasters, acts of terrorism, chemical spills and nuclear attacks, according to Granillo. With the cooperative agreement in place, the goal now is to develop a national strategic plan that will bring about consensus on how to strengthen community resiliency by including stakeholders.

The first year of the study will be dedicated to engaging national, federal, state, local, tribal and community partners in key stakeholder meetings to establish a national consensus, according to Granillo. The money for the second year will be used to document gathered information, which will be used to develop a strategic plan for moving forward, while the third year will be spent working with local communities to test and evaluate the plan.

“We expect to have determined the best practices for communities to both prepare for emergencies and recover from emergencies,” Burgess said. “With those better practices will come the generation of tools to help communities.”

Preparedness is a continuous cycle of planning, organizing, training, equipping, evaluating and improving, Granillo said. It will lessen the burden

on emergency responders if individuals are able to take care of themselves for the first 72 hours of a disaster, she added.

“Over the past couple of years, though, our emphasis has really focused on involving the community so that we are in line with the national strategy and initiative,” Granillo said.

“Disasters are unpredictable, and unfortunately we live in a world where bad things happen.

We need to get all our constituents in a state of preparedness.”

Granillo said community members should prepare for an emergency by making a survival kit and plan and ensuring that all family

members are aware of what to do. Residents should also make sure they have extra water and food, and write down important phone numbers in case cell phones become inaccessible.

“This grant gives us an opportunity to augment what we’ve already been doing, and this will give us an opportunity to really expand our community partners,” Granillo said. “Community support is needed because it takes a village, our community stakeholders, to enhance resiliency during an emergency.”

NATO says US forced Syria’s hand McClatchy Tribune

UNITED NATIONS — The head of NATO said Wednesday that the U.S. threat of a military strike had forced Syria to agree to surrender its chemical weapons, and the potential use of force must remain to help compel compliance with its agreement to disarm.

But he added that a United Nations inspection program to find, secure and move or destroy Syria’s chemical weapons stockpile could help solidify President Bashar Assad’s grip on power because such a program would require his assistance and probably take many months to complete.

Anders Fogh Rasmussen, the secretary-general of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization and former Danish prime minister, made the comments while he was in New York for the United Nations General Assembly.

He said he’d spoken this week to President Barack Obama and credited him with forcing Assad’s hand by threatening military force.

Afghan president Hamid Karzai (right) shakes hands with NATO Secretary General Anders Fogh Rasmussen in Kabul, Afghanistan on June 18, 2013.

He broke, however, with the Obama administration’s recent claim that moderate rebels were gaining ground in Syria, saying Islamic militants were a growing problem among Syrian rebels trying to dislodge Assad.

“To be very open and frank, it is a fact that the opposition counts extremists and terrorist groups, and I don’t shy away from using the phrase ‘terrorist groups,” Rasmussen said. “Of course it is weakening the

opposition.”

Despite saying the threat of force should continue to be levied against Syria, Rasmussen acknowledged that any military intervention there would be more difficult than it had been in Libya in 2011, when a NATOled bombing campaign helped rebels overthrow Moammar Gadhafi.

“Libya and Syria are two different countries and two very different cases,” he said. “In Libya, we operated on the basis of a U.N. mandate, and we got active support from countries in the region. None of these conditions are fulfilled when it comes to Syria.”

Rasmussen said those conditions were compounded by Syria’s multiethnic makeup.

“Syria is a more complicated society — ethnically, religiously and politically — so you can’t forge a political settlement through a military operation,” Rasmussen said.

“Different ethnic groups are in conflict with each other, and you can’t force them through a military operation to sit around a table and find a solution.”

Talent, not sexuality, should be standard in music

BY Kalli Ricka Wolf The Daily Wildcat

A

s they say in advertising, “sex sells,” and women in the music industry are dressing in more revealing ways than ever.

But male performers don’t have to parade around as sex objects just so they can showcase their talents, and women shouldn’t have to either.

Simply turn on the television or watch a recent music video, and you’re bound to see women who are sexualized and halfnaked, dancing provocatively and submissive to the dominating male.

Rihanna’s risqué fashion choices, Miley Cyrus’s “twerking” performance at the 2013 MTV Video Music Awards and Katy Perry’s sexually-driven performances lead young women to believe that showing off talent requires them to show off their bodies, as well. Even female powerhouses such as Lady Gaga and Pink, who are vocal supporters of women’s rights, show a lot of skin.

Even in a sea of half-naked music videos and sexually driven performances, there are many women who have broken the mold and dedicate their talents, not their bodies, to their work, which is a refreshing change.

The second annual Southwest Terror Fest is in Tucson from Oct. 10-13, and women musicians there will be rocking the stage just as much as their male counterparts, defying stereotypes and owning their presence in metal rock.

“In a lot of other genres, the edgiest a woman can get is expressing her sexuality, but with metal I can explore themes and ideas that are considered very unladylike … without selling my body to it,” said metal singer Shanda Fredrick, who performs for Demon Lung. “[Men] should be open to hearing a female perspective and women having a sense of creative freedom.”

The opportunity for women to perform at the Southwest Terror Fest without revealing too much of their bodies is a breakthrough in a male-dominated genre. They don’t need to dress provocatively or cater to the male gaze to draw a crowd; they rely on pure passion and talent for music.

“Over the years I have noticed a huge increase in the number of women playing in bands,” said drummer Abbey Apple, who will perform with her band Oryx at the rock metal festival. “Now it seems women are getting their place in the scene and are no longer just in the audience.”

Talent should always trump looks, and as more women performers come out of the audience and onto the stage, the more normal it will be to see talented artists who don’t rely heavily on appearances.

“Something where there’s an obvious physical divide between men and women, I can fathom people judging men and women on different scales,” said Micki McCargar, bassist for Eight Legged Horse. “When it comes to being a musician, or any kind of art skill, it’s all about what you produce. That thing, that rare thing: talent. That’s what it’s all about. Gender becomes irrelevant at the point where talent begins.”

It shouldn’t be shocking or unconventional that women take the stage at the Southwest Terror Fest, and women have the same right as men to draw a crowd with their talent. The sexual freedom women have now is liberating, but it doesn’t necessarily have to be used as a tool in the entertainment industry.

“My hope is that one day it won’t be about ‘She’s good … for a female musician’ and more about ‘That person is a good musician,’” Apple said.

The women musicians performing at the upcoming Southwest Terror Fest defy conventional standards. Hopefully women outside of the genre will soon follow suit.

Sex may sell, but talent should be the focus.

Pulse of the Pac Here’s what other schools in the Pac-12 are talking about: years it takes to graduate, chemical weapons, financial literacy courses, STEM retention rates “Are four years really enough?”

by Kelsey Samuels Coming from a student who has changed her major four or five times in the past three years, four years sounds daunting to the average student, especially one who isn’t exactly sure what her career may be.

You have the biology major whose secret passion is writing, but she wants a stable and steady income for her family in the future and decides to take the long road with the pre-med track.

There’s the aspiring architect who cannot pass a math class to save his life and is forced to give up his dream of constructing the next Eiffel Tower.

It seems as though you need to know exactly what you’re going to do before you do it. Not all students can or want to begin their first real time as adults making a map of their future; they want the freedom to explore.

“Weapons deal dangerous path”

by Dan Morgan-Russell

creates

For decades, the world’s superpowers have operated under the pretense that chemical weapons should not be created or utilized in a time of war.

Most international laws and norms are enforced only by reciprocity, but some must be backed by force, and chemical weapons are an issue that absolutely requires enforcement and dissuasion through punishment.

What the looming agreement between the U.S., Russia and Syria fails to do is act as a deterrent to the rest of the world to demonstrate the absolute “line in the sand,” as President Barack Obama repeatedly put it before Assad launched his gas attacks.

“Financial literacy course should prepare students for life”

by Ryan Nelson Sometimes I wish I were as smart [as] the E*TRADE baby.

When you see the investment firm’s ads on TV, the message isn’t subtle: Our financial tools are so good, a baby can use them and be successful.

Amazingly enough, when I started testing the murky waters of finances, I discovered there wasn’t a magical application that could spell it all out for me.

In lieu of magic, UCLA should consider establishing a new general education requirement that mandates all students to take a financial literacy course in order to better prepare them for life after college.

University of California, Los Angeles

As a student majoring in Science, Technology, Engineering or Math, you have a 60 percent chance of dropping out or changing majors, according to a study by the University of Central Florida. Only 15 percent of the United States student population declares a major in these fields, according to the aforementioned study.

Due to the high dropout-rate associated with STEM degrees, of the 3.6 million total students in the U.S., only six percent will graduate within six years.

To increase STEM retention rates, students need to speak up about what does not work for them in the classroom. Science is science and that cannot be changed, but the way in which professors deliver the material to their students can be changed.

Your Views: Online Comments In response to “Right to bear arms not absolute” (by Anthony Carli, Sept. 24) The article is well written, good job Anthony. However, you mention the framers of the Constitution creating this amendment due to the recently finished warfare. To say that this reasoning is simply outdated isn’t enough substance to get rid of it entirely.

While I agree that they weren’t intending people own guns for entertainment, it would be impossible to differentiate these people from those that use them for hunting, safety, etc.

Higher levels of background checks and wait periods are something I agree with because so many of the people involved in recent shootings showed clear signs of mental health issues and previous encounters with the law. These should have raised red flags somewhere along the way.

I dissent when it comes to arguments that push for blanket regulations. We are taught

“‘The Second Amendment is not clearly written,’ said Chad Westerland, a political science professor who has been studying the Constitution for nearly 20 years. ‘It doesn’t say you have a right to carry a gun; there’s a right to bear arms that’s connected to maintaining a well-regulated militia.’”

It is clearly written, the anti gun types just claim it isn’t. Funny how they see non enumerated rights in the Constitution (abortion), yet claim plainly enumerated rights don’t mean what they say.

“Most Americans agree that this is common sense legislation that should be enacted, despite Congress’ inaction.”

If this statement was true then Congress would be enacting more gun control laws.

Politicians tend to go in the direction their constituents ask them to, when they don’t.... see Colorado recall.

You didn’t just use the nuclear weapons argument? OK, let’s put that to rest forever.

Firearms are used for specific targets, One bullet, one target. When the bullet stops moving, it’s no longer a danger to anyone.

Nuclear weapons are indiscriminate with enormous geographic impact with a lasting blight long after its single use.

No, it’s not legal for any citizen anywhere to personally own a nuclear ANYTHING. Paraphrasing Mr. Colion Nior, the 1980s called and they want that argument back.

On Monday, UAPD officers received a report about a nonUA affiliated man who sat in on two UA student club meetings.

On Sept. 11, a student-run group held its first meeting.

Students were asked for their email addresses so that members of the group could contact them.

The unknown man showed up to the meeting and was given the sheet to write down his email address. The members of the group said they did not know the man but assumed he was a student, and therefore, a part of the group.

Later that week, the head of the group was contacted by a student in the group because the unknown man had emailed her, wanting to trade her assistance with his business for a Japanese massage.

At the next meeting, the head of the group confronted the man, asking for his student email because it was a studentrun group and open only to UA students.

The man could not provide an email address. Instead, he told the group he was disappointed in their integrity and that he would have them all investigated.

The students gave the man’s description to the police.

The description matched that of a man who had been caught shaving and washing himself in the Student Union Memorial Center in July and sleeping in a UA building in July 2011.

UAPD is currently on the lookout for the man.

Home away from home Two UA students were arrested, cited and released for possession of marijuana and possession of drug paraphernalia in a UA residence hall dorm room on Monday at 9:20 p.m.

An RA reported to UAPD officers that a strong smell of marijuana was coming from one of the rooms in the residence hall.

The dorm floor’s RA took the officers to the room where the smell was coming from and officers found two UA students inside. Both students had bloodshot eyes and officers noticed their tongues had raised taste buds with a green tint toward the back of their mouths.

The students said they lived in the hall and admitted that they had smoked marijuana roughly 30 minutes before the officers arrived.

The officers were given permission to enter the room and the students gave them a white box with a rechargeable black vaporizer and a small glass jar with 0.8 grams of THC. One of the students said it was his smoking kit which he had brought from home.

Code of conduct violations were submitted to the Dean of Students Office for both students.

Wildcats start practice with great expectations

Football

Time for Denker to step up by luke della The Daily Wildcat

RYAN Revock/The Daily Wildcat

JUNIOR GUARD Nick Johnson poses during the Wildcats’ annual media day at Richard Jefferson Gymnasium on Wednesday. Johnson is expected to lead the highly touted Arizona squad.

by luke della

The Daily Wildcat Arizona basketball officially tipped off the 2013-14 season with its annual preseason media day, which as always seemed to be centered around expectations for the team.

But with the team fresh off a Sweet 16 appearance and an offseason highlighted by a highly ranked freshman recruiting class, this year’s questions about expectations seemed to carry more weight.

“I don’t really worry about it and I don’t think our team should,” head coach Sean Miller said, “because part of the reason you want to be here as a coach, as a player, why we have 14,500 at our Red and Blue game, is because we have high expectations.”

The highly touted freshman class that is causing such heightened expectations is led

by forwards Aaron Gordon and Rondae Hollis-Jefferson and shooting guard Elliot Pitts.

Gordon, who has even been compared to the likes of Los Angeles Clippers’ forward Blake Griffin, said he doesn’t mind the expectations and, as Miller suggested, embraces them with open arms.

“No one puts higher expectations on myself and my team than I do,” Gordon said. “I knew coming to Arizona those expectations with me and our team were going to be there. I wouldn’t have come here if I thought there was going to be low expectations.”

Though there are high expectations for this Wildcat team — there are also many concerns that were addressed Wednesday. Arizona lost three of its top perimeter shooters from last year and aren’t sure yet where the production will come from.

“I don’t know right now if I can

say we’re not a good shooting team,” Miller said. “We have a lot of guys we can count on who haven’t done it or are going to have to do it better.”

Midway through nonconference schedule last year, Southern Miss exposed a flaw in the Wildcats’ team: Arizona struggled against zone defenses.

The flaw was then later exploited

by Oregon and California. Miller admitted to it and said yesterday that he doesn’t expect opposing teams to try anything different this year.

While a zone can limit frontcourt players’ abilities to score, a team that can pass and shoot the ball well from the outside has the best chance of scoring on a zone.

Miller didn’t say who he thought could be that guy, but all the guards, including sophomore forward Brandon Ashley, admitted to working on their perimeter shooting and being

more confident in it.

It seems all the pieces are in place for the Wildcats to make a deep run in the NCAA tournament.

For the first time Miller has what he calls a “true point guard” in transfer T.J. McConnell.

The Wildcats are athletic on the wing with Hollis-Jefferson and Gordon.

Leadership can come from junior guard Nick Johnson and senior guard Jordin Mayes, the only player on the roster who was part of the Wildcats’ 2011 Elite 8 team.

It’s clear why expectations are so high this year, but the team Miller has in September is not the same team he’ll have in March.

“We have a lot of great parts and it’s fun to think about it, but how that comes together… we have to have some caution and wait and see,” Miller said.

With all eyes on Arizona running back Ka’Deem Carey this weekend, it’ll be up to senior quarterback B.J. Denker to step out of the shadows.

The Wildcats are going to need more than a personal best from the quarterback if they hope to beat a Washington team that will be distracted on defense with stopping Arizona’s run game.

“If [Washington] is smart they would [focus on stopping the run],” Denker said. “If they want to try and win the football game, they will.”

Saturday’s game will be all about the tempo and who’s controlling it. The Huskies and Wildcats have similar offenses. Carey and UW running back Bishop Sankey are so similar that they are almost twins and currently are two of the nation’s top backs. Both offenses run a fast pace spread. Who runs the most plays in the end will control the tempo and win the game.

But unlike the Wildcats, the root of Washington’s offense isn’t its running back, but instead quarterback Keith Price.

The key to stopping Washington’s offense?

“Getting to Keith Price,” Arizona sophomore linebacker Sir Thomas Jackson said. “Making him force turnovers and not scramble out of the pocket.”

The Huskies and Wildcats have identical offenses but apparently completely different defensive plans.

“We should expect them [to focus on Carey],” Rodriguez said about Washington’s defense.

“It wouldn’t be the first time this season we’ve seen a full commitment to that. I would expect to see the same thing quite a bit on Saturday.”

If for some reason the Huskies are confident enough to not fully commit to stopping Carey in the first half, they will in the second half, when the score is tight.

Once Washington’s commitment to stopping Carey and the running game has been established, Denker needs to become more of

‘Cats deploy SWAT defense by luke della

The Daily Wildcat With the injuries and inexperience surrounding the Arizona defense last season, the Wildcats were limited to a hopeful base defense.

In the end, they couldn’t hold the opposing offenses.

2013 is different and more dynamic.

In three games, Arizona has gone from the worst defense in the conference to fourth best, largely thanks to the new and improved third down “SWAT” defense.

“It’s for the [hardcore players],” senior linebacker Jake Fischer said about the new third down defense.

“You get your best rushers out there, you get your best cover players and just make plays.”

Defensive coordinator Jeff Casteel didn’t implement the SWAT defense last season because of the team’s lack of depth and inconsistency. But now the team is more familiar with what the coaches are asking for, and it’s clear what needs to be done.

“Keep them at a manageable third down distance, then disrupt the quarterback and hopefully force him to cause a turnover — or at least not get a first down,” Fischer said.

On the third down for Arizona, the team gets quicker at defensive back and brings in more pass rushers at linebacker and the defensive line.

Denker

an elite passer than a pedestrian one.

In Washington’s last game in week three, a victory over UTSA, Denker did exactly that.

“We were just going off what the defense was giving us,” Denker said after the win. “We knew they were going to put a lot in the box to stop Ka’Deem, and our offense was just clicking.”

Denker finished the first quarter of that game with 88 passing yards and one touchdown. Once the Wildcats began to pull away and the victory was more obvious,

FILE PHOTO/The Daily Wildcat

LINEBACKER SIR THOMAS JACKSON takes on an Oklahoma State blocker during Arizona’s 59-38 win over the Cowboys on Sept. 8, 2012. The former walk-on is from Seattle, so the Wildcats’ trip to Washington is a homecoming for the sophomore.

Outside linebackers Sir Thomas Jackson and Derrick Turituri enter as defensive ends, looking to get into the backfield. Nose tackle Kirifi Taula also subs in to bring more athleticism in the middle of the defensive line.

Safety William Parks and cornerback Devin Holiday enter

and replace linebackers Marquis Flowers and Scooby Wright.

Senior cornerback Shaquille Richardson moves to free safety as other free safety Jourdon Grandon inches closer to the line in the bandit position.

“It’s our best guys against theirs,” cornerbacks coach David Lockwood

running the clock out became more of a priority than going off what the defense gave them.

Arizona has gotten by so far with its strong ground attack, averaging the fifth most rushing yards per game in the nation at 322.3.

But the Wildcats can’t expect to do that or to be able to take their foot off the gas against a defense that through the past three games hasn’t given up more than 171 rushing yards a game.

If they limit themselves to just running the ball, there will be many punts and wasted possessions, delivering the ball and tempo into the hands of Washington.

So the pressure is on Denker to execute and exploit the matchups. If he can take his game to uncharted personal heights, not only will the Wildcats escape Seattle with a win, but they will also be able to expect future opponents to commit less on Carey.

“We’re seeing more and more teams play us in a one-on-one, press, man coverage out on the perimeter and [test us to] see if we can win some of those battles,” Rodriguez said. “We got to win some of those to have a chance.”

— Follow Luke Della @LukeDella

said. “Got to clog up the running lanes, and the best thing against a pass offense is a pass rush.”

Arizona’s SWAT defense will be tested Saturday as Washington enters the game with the nation’s third-highest third down conversion percentage. Through three games, the Huskies have been successful

on .659 percent of 41 third down attempts.

Washington features a talented, diverse offense that is centered on junior tailback Bishop Sankey and senior quarterback Keith Price.

Fischer said the key is going to be to contain Sankey to short runs on first and second down so the Huskies are forced to throw on third. If the defense holds the Huskies to third and long, it will then be up to the SWAT team to bring pressure and hopefully get the ball back into the offense’s hands.

Limiting Sankey and Price, though, won’t be easy. Sankey is currently second in the nation in yards per game, averaging 148.7 rushing yards per game. Price is the most efficient quarterback in the conference in terms of passing and eighth most efficient in the country.

His passing efficiency rating is 186.1.

The SWAT team is still a work in progress, and the third down defense needs to be more consistent before facing a test like the Huskies, but the talent to make the necessary plays is out there. “[The SWAT defense has] been good at times and not so good,” Rodriguez said, “but we’re getting more athletic bodies on the field, which is what you need on third and long.”

UA Egypt Exhibition opens doors for archaeologists BY mary rinker

BY elizabeth bercel

The Daily Wildcat

In the 1980s, Indiana Jones changed the public perception of archaeologists everywhere.

But the realities of archaeology — the long hours and exhausting work, the politics and payroll — have more than their fair share of people turning away from the field.

“You know you’re not going to make much money,” said Penny Mazer, vice president for the Arizona Chapter of the American Research Center in Egypt. “You know you’re probably going to end up as an academic, but it’s worth it. If you really love it, then it’s worth it.”

The UA Egyptian Expedition gives professionals from the UA the chance to be one of those people. The UAEE has had an ongoing dig in Egypt every year since 1988, said Pearce Creasman, the director of the UAEE and president of the Arizona Chapter for the ARCE. “When you think of Egypt, you think of the sexy stuff, the gold, the mummies, the sphinxes,” Creasman said, “but it’s so much more than that.”

It’s about hard work, and pursuing something you love with dedication, Creasman added.

For students of the UA, the UAEE is a way to make that passion a reality.

Its current project is the excavation of the Theban temple of Tausret, the 19th dynasty queen who went against tradition and ruled as king in 1190 B.C.E. ARCE-AZ intends to get the word out on projects such as these and important and interesting research in Egyptology.

This includes bringing in speakers such as Geoffrey T. Martin from the University College of London, who spoke Tuesday about the reexcavation of the tomb of King Horemheb, one of the largest of its kind in the Valley of the Kings.

“He’s one of the most prominent Egyptologists around,”Creasman said.

“Anybody who’s studied Egyptology has read one of his books.”

Martin spoke on the changes that the re-excavation caused

spindle. When charting electrical activity over time, a shape called a “sleep spindle” can occur, which resembles the shape yarn makes when spun on a spindle.

Though the purpose or cause of sleep spindles is still unknown, one guess is that they signify the brain shutting off sensory input for all senses beside the sense of smell.

Examining the nature of sleep spindles in a healthy person may tell researchers a lot about how well a subject is sleeping.

It is also understood that there is a correlation between psychological disorders and sleep, and by exploring the sleep patterns of subjects without pathological sleep disorders, Higgins said he hopes to find exactly what that correlation is and whether it is a cause or effect of the disorder.

In the future, Higgins said he thinks that examining a person’s sleep patterns could be a good indication of general health.

“If I could look at a month of your sleep, or six months of your sleep,” Higgins said, “and say you’re depressed without ever even being in the same room as you, that would be incredible.”

Ongoing research at the UA has produced encouraging results regarding the effects of ultrasounds on the human brain.

Based on multiple studies, researchers have found that ultrasound waves passing through the cranium can change the mood of a patient for a short period of time. Scientists believe that these findings may be important in the future when treating patients suffering from traumatic brain injury, Alzheimer’s disease, depression and other disorders.

The first clinical trial of ultrasounds on the human brain was led by Stuart Hameroff, director of the Center for Consciousness Studies and professor emeritus in the departments of anesthesiology and psychology at the UA. “It is the first published paper on transcranial effects of ultrasound on mood,” Hameroff said. His study was published in the journal Brain Stimulation.

Hameroff’s interest in transcranial ultrasounds was sparked by a study that involved the application of ultrasound waves through the skulls of animals, causing behavioral and psychological changes.

Because ultrasound waves are emitted in megahertz frequencies, Hameroff said he thought that ultrasounds could possibly stimulate microtubules, which could affect mood, cognition and consciousness in humans.

The first to undergo the ultrasound was Hameroff himself, who made the decision to be the first human test subject.

“I put it for about 15 seconds and I didn’t feel anything. I put it down and I said, ‘Well, that’s no big deal,’” Hameroff said. “But about a minute later I started to feel funny, actually very good. I got kind of a pleasant ringing throughout my brain. I felt kind of energized, a little bit buzzed, and I felt really good for about an hour.”

Hameroff’s experience with the ultrasound fueled trials of the transcranial ultrasounds on chronic pain patients at Kino Community Hospital, which showed a general uplift in mood for the patients.

Jay Sanguinetti, a psychology graduate student at the UA, was curious about how the results would differ if the subjects were healthy, so she decided to replicate the experiment with undergraduate students.

“In the psychology department, we have access to a pool of undergraduates who basically get research credit for taking [Psychology] 101,” Sanguinetti said. “So any given semester, we have about a thousand or so undergraduate population that we can tap into.”

The first study aimed to determine which ultrasound frequency would produce the greatest effects on patients.

“We gave them a baseline, so before stimulation, we gave them stimulation, post 15 [minutes] and post 30 [minutes],” Sanguinetti added. “We were giving them mood scales all throughout.”

The next step for studies of this nature will be a collaboration of university scientists with a company called Neurotrek. The experiment will explore the effects of a wearable ultrasound device on patients.

“We’re going to record from about 300-400 undergraduates this semester,” Sanguinetti said.

“We teamed up with a group out of Silicon Valley. They’ve created a device that’s specific for brain stimulation for ultrasound.”

Although previous studies have shown significant effects of ultrasounds on mood, Hameroff believes ultrasounds could affect more conditions as well.

If microtubules are indeed what is being influenced in these scenarios, neuronal growth could also be affected by ultrasounds, which could aid in treating traumatic brain injury patients and Alzheimer’s disease.

A Brain Ultrasound Group is currently being constructed and will use ultrasounds to try to treat traumatic brain injury, depression, Alzheimer’s, post-traumatic stress disorder, concussions and more.

“There are a lot of questions, but we think that since this is cheap, safe and noninvasive, we may as well try,” Hameroff said.

to the timeline of Egyptian rulers. New findings showed that Horemheb ruled for a much shorter period of time than previously thought, creating a gap in which it is unknown who controlled the vast kingdom.

“There was so much

left to learn from this dig,” Martin said. “So much was left behind after the first rushed excavation.”

The talk brought in about 50 people, from undergraduate students told to come by their instructors to Egypt enthusiasts and graduate students looking forward

to their own fieldwork.

ARCE-AZ has one more event planned for this year: On Nov. 7 at 5:30 p.m., Sarah Parcak will speak about aerial mapping of Egypt through the use of satellite imaging.

The organization’s goal is to bring in speakers that

the public is interested in hearing from to generate interest in the community about the science of Egyptology and the work that is being done around the world.

TED Talk analyzes sleep patterns BY zane johnson

The Daily Wildcat According to TED, 18 minutes can change the world.

Technology, Entertainment, Design is a nonprofit organization that aims to spread impactful ideas through its “Talks,” in-person and video-recorded speeches that last 18 minutes or less.

On Sept. 19, TEDxTucson, the locally-organized TED program, held a Salon event in the UofA Bookstore basement. Among the speakers were Adam Block, an astrophotographer and program coordinator for UA Science’s Sky Center who spoke on the importance and purpose of astrophotography, and Jade Beall, a local photographer whose A Beautiful Body Project has gained international attention for its celebration of the varying bodies of women.

Also among the speakers was Charles Higgins, an associate professor of neuroscience at the UA, who spoke about sleep.

“I never thought about sleep until I stopped sleeping well,” Higgins said.

His doctor referred him to a sleep study, where he was unsatisfied with the use of the polysomnograph, a diagnostic test involving a series of medical machines that can inhibit normal sleep.
