In 2006, the UA Lunar and Plan-etary Laboratory sent the most power-ful camera in history into orbit Mars. Now, they are giving the public control with the HiWish program.
HiWish was launched Wednesday and utilizes HiRISE, a high-resolution camera aboard the Mars Reconnais-sance Orbiter, which has taken pic-tures since fi rst arriving in orbit.
With HiRISE’s ability to take high-resolution photographs, scientists have been able to take clear and de-tailed pictures of previously obscure aspects of the Martian surface.
“We have a couple of different research topics going on right now,” said Guy McArthur , a senior systems program-mer with the UA Lunar and Planetary Lab. “HiRISE gives us the opportunity to take images vital to that research.”
Even though there is opportunity for research application, McArthur says
that the goal of HiRISE was always public openness and participation.
“Alfred McEwen (the principal in-vestigator for HiRISE) coined the slo-gan ‘The People’s Camera,’” McArthur said, “and now fi nally through the HiWish program we can really bring what we are doing to the public.”
After registering for an account on the HiWish Web site, anyone can sub-mit areas to be considered for HiRISE imaging. Up to 50 suggestions a day can be made from each user’s account.
“The more people who make use of HiWish, the better,” McArthur said.
According to Rodney Heyd , the HiRISE project manager, plenty of peo-ple are taking advantage of this unique opportunity. In the fi rst two days of the HiWish program, there were 1,627 user accounts created. One or two new ac-counts are created every fi ve minutes.
“The response from the public has been amazing,” Heyd said. “To think that this many people are already regis-tered and suggesting images is great.”
HiWish uses the technology and interface from Google Maps to enable easy navigation around the Martian surface. HiWish will clearly label areas already imaged or suggested for imag-ing so the same areas are not suggested more than once.
Because the technology is new, both Heyd and McArthur expect there to be some minor issues with HiWish.
“We’re all busy here trying to ensure that the HiWish program is bug-free and easy to use, but, despite our best efforts, there will probably be minor hiccups in the program,” Heyd said.
Even though HiRISE has been taking images since 2006, less than 1 percent of the surface of the planet has been pho-tographed in this fashion. At its current rate of about one image per hour, sci-entists would need more than a century to fully image the entire planet.
“I encourage everyone on campus to register and help fi nd places to target,” Heyd said. “There are obviously a lot of places HiRISE hasn’t looked at.”
The Achieving Sustainable Social Equality Through Technology Foundation, created by a UA assistant dean and his wife and daughter, is currently helping victims of sex traffi cking in India.
“In India alone, somewhere between 700,000 and 1 million children get traf-fi cked into prostitution (per year),” said Ray Umashankar, assistant dean of the UA College of Engineering . “Our greatest in-terest is in how many students we actually place in jobs and how many families’ lives have been changed,” he added.
“The overall mission of ASSET is to edu-cate the children of sex workers, to break the cycle of abuse and to provide employment to these children,” said Nita Umashankar , a UA alumna who started the foundation with
her parents in 2006. “We believe that educa-tion in skilled labor is key, English training, IT skills, India has a need and we want to fi ll this need,” she added.
After completeing her undergraduate work in 2003, Nita spent a year in India working with abused women and children.
“When she came back she dropped this big bombshell,” her father said. “The children of sex workers and girls rescued from traffi cking were the lowest of the low, the most ostracized, with absolutely no opportunities for getting out.”
The Umashankars were troubled by this and began doing research of their own.
“We found that there were organizations working with this particular population, but they were taught bag making, sewing, those kinds of things,” Ray Umashankar said. “There’s nothing wrong with those profes-sions, except they could not earn suffi cient money to keep them out of the fl esh trade.”
Ray and Nita Umashankar began think-ing of the ever-growing demand for low-end computer skills in India.
“If we provide computer skills and English language (skills) to these girls, they’ll be easily employable,” Ray said. “Because if they have skills, nobody cares what their background is or where they came from.”
The funding for the Umashankars’ foundation mostly comes from private organizations in the United States which are taking part in fundraising contests. To date, the Umashankars have raised more than $400,000, but they are not stopping there.
“We plan to open up several more centers in the metropolitan areas in India and expand into the rural areas,” said Nita Umashankar.
The foundation has garnered attention on a global scale, competing in a contest for
A new online system will replace some aspects of Student Link, with changes starting today.
The changes affect the new UAccess Student Center system, which allows students to view and make some demographic and biographic data changes in the new system, said Kay Beasock , a director of the Mosaic project.
The Mosaic project, using PeopleSoft software, will replace the many different systems used on campus with one sys-tem so there will be less paperwork and more effi cient information exchange.
“There’s not much aesthetically changing, but the new system is (an) ef-fort on the university’s part to be more transparent,” said Suellyn Hull, co-director of the Student Administration Mosaic project.
Tom Bourgeois , the other co-director of the Student Administration Mosaic
project agreed with the assertion.“The only obvious change is a di-
rected link on Student Link taking students to the new UAccess system,” Bourgeois said.
While not visually signifi cant, today marks a starting point towards monu-mental change.
“This go-live is much more of a foundational step towards a bigger goal,” said Hank Childers, director of the Mosaic project.
Bigger changes are to be expected
in the next two student administration go-live dates, with the “big action” oc-curring on March 22, Bourgeois said.
“It’s going to be okay, and it’s go-ing to get better,” he said of those who might worry about the effi ciency of the new system.
The upgrades are following the business cycle of the students, so when students need to access class registrations, those systems will go live. When fi nancial aid is
Arizona state political leaders are considering allowing teachers to carry weapons on campus. Sen. Jack Harper, R-Surprise , is the primary sponsor for a bill that would allow professors with concealed weapons permits to carry guns on campus.
If the bill passes, any faculty member with a valid concealed weapons permit will be able to carry a concealed weapon on the property of any community college or university within the jurisdiction of the Arizona Board of Regents.
Some, like Rep. Frank Pratt, R-Central Ariz., opposes the idea of teachers bringing guns to campus.
“I don’t like the possibility of any weapons being accidentally discharged in a large crowd of people,” Pratt said. “I can see that as very problematic.”
Pratt said that allowing other peo-ple to carry weapons would create confusion for the security offi cers and police offi cers.
“I would have to examine (the bill) more closely,” he said. “The ultimate objective is the safety of the students and personnel.”
Others believe that people with certi-fi ed permits should be allowed to carry their weapons anywhere.
“I think that if someone is cer-tifi ed by the state standards, they should not be limited to where they can carry a fi rearm,” said Maj. Thomas O’Sullivan of the UA Reserve Offi cers’ Training Corps.
O’Sullivan doesn’t believe that the presence of additional weapons on campus would lead to confusion for security offi cers. Rather, he said part of the training required to obtain a concealed weapons permit is learning when to use a gun and when to put it away.
“When to pull (a gun) out and what to do when police offi cers arrive is part of the training,” he said. “As long as a professor was trained and profi cient and acting in accordance with the law, they should be allowed to carry a gun.”
The University of Arizona Police Department doesn’t share O’Sullivan’s opinion.
“Our stance is that we follow the law,” said UAPD Sgt. Juan Alvarez . “But anytime you have more people who are armed, it makes our job more diffi cult.”
Alvarez argues that making the dis-tinction between the good guy and the bad guy would become increasingly more diffi cult if professors were al-lowed to carry a weapon.
“We could only assume that they’re here to harm someone on campus,”

LOS ANGELES — While Jeff Bridges and Sandra Bullock’s chances for Academy Award gold were advanced with their tro-phies at the Screen Actors Guild Awards, the blockbuster “Avatar” may have felt a touch of blue.
The computer-assisted performances in James Cameron’s “Avatar” didn’t make the cut for Screen Actors Guild Awards
nominations. But, the groundbreaking sci-fi fi lm remains a strong best-picture contender for the Oscars in March.
For Bridges of “Crazy Heart,” Bullock of “The Blind Side” and for Screen Actors Guild supporting-acting honorees Mo’Nique of “Precious” and Christoph Waltz of “Inglourious Basterds,” there’s reason to suspect the Oscar ceremony will be a happy rerun of Saturday’s Screen Actors Guild Awards and last Sunday’s Golden Globes.
All four were recognized at the Globes as well, while “Avatar” was named best drama, and Cameron won as best director.
He will face competition from director Quentin Tarantino whose “Inglourious Basterds” won the Screen Actors Guild Award for best ensemble performance, which can be a precursor to the top Oscar award. Last year, the Screen Actors Guild’s movie cast award was presented to “Slumdog Millionaire,” which went on to win the best picture Oscar.
“It was an honor to be part of it, Quentin,” said “Inglourious Basterds” cast member Eli Roth in accepting the award for his fellow actors in the off-kilter World War II revenge saga.
Bullock declined — strenuously — to look ahead.“Shhhhh. Shhhhh. Shhhhh,” Bullock said backstage
when she was asked to speculate on her Oscar chances. She won for her portrayal of a tenacious real-life mom, Leigh Anne Tuohy, who helped a youth in need: future NFL player, Michael Oher.
“I would be a hostess or a waitress or a house re-storer before I ever considered myself an actor, because I never thought I was good enough,” she added.

New question: Have you checked out the new Student Link?
‘Inglourious Basterds’ wins SAG film award
Astronauts finally get Internet access in space CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. — In a high
tech fi rst — really, really high — astronauts in space fi nally have Internet access.
Space station resident Timothy (TJ) Creamer had been working with fl ight controllers to establish Internet access from his orbital post ever since he moved in last month. On Friday, his effort paid off. He posted the fi rst live Twitter post from space.
“Hello Twitterverse!” he wrote. “We r now LIVE tweeting from the International Space Station — the 1st live tweet from Space! :) More soon, send your ?s.”
Before, orbiting astronauts had to send such Twitter updates by e-mail to Mission Control in Houston. Then con-trollers posted the tweets.
The International Space Station crew can now use an on-board laptop to reach a desktop computer at Mission Control and thereby browse the Web. This remote In-ternet access is possible whenever there is a solid high-speed communication link.
“Long-duration astronauts, they com-mit to spending months away from fam-ily and friends. It’s a pretty unique state of isolation,” said NASA spokesman
Kelly Humphries. “We expect this to en-hance morale and productivity.”
The astronauts will be subject to the same Internet access guidelines as other on-the-job government employees. So, this new Internet access will not inter-fere with work.
Is NASA worried the astronauts might spend too much time online, more than 200 miles up?
“These are highly driven individuals,” Humphries said with a chuckle, “so they’re going to get their work done fi rst.”

So, I see that you’re reading a book. What do you have there?
I’m reading “Jurassic Park” by Michael Crichton .
Do you like dinosaurs?I love dinosaurs.What’s your favorite
dinosaur?The Tyrannosaurus rex
because it has those little stubby arms.
Do you think they’re still an effective predator?
Yeah, because they’re monstrous. They can just gobble up the little dinosaurs.
Is the book different from the movie?
Yeah, at the beginning, there’s this little girl who gets eaten by the Procompsognathus, which are the really tiny ones.
Isn’t that in the movie version of “The Lost World?”
Yeah, they stole it from themselves. The book’s re-ally good though. I usually hate reading, but this one has so much science and lots of dinosaurs in it.
What’s the best part of the movie?
The best part is when Lex and Tim are in the car, and the lawyer wimps out on them. The T-rex breaks through his fence and sees Tim’s fl ashlight, and then, RAWR!, comes through the glass ceiling of the-ir car. It’s so epic; I love it.
If you were going to be a dinosaur, what color would you be?
Well, my favorite color is blue, but I’d have to be a tannish-brown dino because if I was a blue dinosaur, all the other ones would go after me. I’d have to blend.
Would you be a veggie-saurus or a meat-a-saurus?
I would be a meat-a-saurus. I’d rather eat all the other dinos than plants and trees.
Who wouldn’t?

UA students defeated 20 other schools in a national marketing competition to promote the Honda Insight.
“We stood out because we were ourselves. We had per-sonality and humor,” said Evan Singer , a marketing se-nior and the team’s agency director. “It’s little things that made the difference.”
Five students from the Eller College of Management rep-resented an advertising man-agement class (MKTG 425) at the Honda Insight Marketing Challenge.
The team’s representatives, marketing seniors Todd Lane , Shiloh Miller , Chelsea Robinson , Brandon Schempp and Brandon Singer, were fi nalists in the challenge and were invited to Los Angeles to present the results of their campaign to Honda executives. They presented to American Honda Motor Company and advertising agency Rubin Postaer and Associates.
It was originally a project sponsored by EdVenture Partners, a small agency which develops industry education partnerships at over 650 colleges for clients such as Honda, the Recording Industry Association of America and L.L. Bean.
During the fall semester,
the team had to measure the awareness at the UA
of the Honda Insight and then improve the amount of their peers’ awareness. They took a survey at the begin-ning and end of their market-ing campaign and found that they had nearly
doubled the awareness. “I love to go to national
competitions to see the best of the best compete,” said Tony Sgro , CEO and founder of EdVenture Partners. “It’s remarkable to see what UA students did.”
Not only did the students win fi rst place, but the Eller College of Management will receive $5,000, which will be used to help the marketing de-partment and for scholarships.
“Their win will help future students do similar competi-tions,” Ackerley said.
Singer said that it was all 50 students in the advertising
management class that made the project “what it was.”
According to Ed Ackerley , their professor and advisor for the competition, the stu-dents used their budget for the competition effectively.
“(They) took $2,500 and turned it into $28,000, which was a nice return on the investment for the client,” Ackerley said.
The students decided to use UA’s Homecoming week-end as a platform on which

When President Obama announced in a press conference last week that the U.S. will be donating an
initial $100 million to relief efforts in Haiti, he was interrupted by applause from the audience. This donation, along with the 10,000 U.S. armed troops now stationed in Haiti, would make it seem like the U.S. is doing well at coming to the rescue of this disaster-stricken country.
While the questions of how to help the victims of this disaster is a crucial one, another question that is necessary,
but surpris-ingly absent, is why this became such a disaster. To think that the extremity of suffering in
Haiti comes solely from an earthquake would be naive . The earthquake wrecked a country with an already weak infra-structure. It is ironic that the U.S. is now spending millions to aid a country it has been hurting for so long.
A prime example of this irony comes from Obama’s decision to ask former President George W. Bush and former President Clinton to co-chair the U.S. relief effort in Haiti.
Noam Chomsky describes in his 2004 article entitled “U.S. & Haiti” that, in 1991, the fi rst Bush administration supported the overthrow of Haiti’s president, Jean-Bertrand Aristide , taking away aid from the democratically elected government and handing it over to “the wealthy elites and the business sectors.”
Though Clinton helped restore Aristide to offi ce, he is responsible for so many of the economic problems in Haiti, which no doubt magnifi ed the effect of the earth-quake’s destruction. Randall Robinson, author of the book “An Unbroken Agony: Haiti, from Revolution to the Kidnapping of a President,” said in an interview with Democracy Now that Clinton forced Aristide to accept neo-liberal policies, which Aristide himself had campaigned against while running for president. Robison reports that these policies fi lled Haiti with sweatshops, which made the common wage among Haitians to be 38 cents an hour.
George W. Bush, not to be outdone by his father, not only cut off needed aid to Haiti in support of the second overthrow of Aristide, but Robinson explains that “he and American forces abducted President Aristide and his wife, taking them off to Africa.” Robinson concludes that “Bush was responsible for destroying Haitian democ-racy in 2004.”
Why President Obama chose these two men to be the faces of the relief efforts in Haiti is a mystery; however, looking at the U.S.’s history with Haiti, it would be dif-fi cult to fi nd anyone fi t to help this country without hypocrisy.
The troops which have been deployed for relief work are certainly not the fi rst U.S. troops to walk the streets of Port-au-Prince. In 1915, under Woodrow Wilson , the U.S. Marines invaded and occupied Haiti until 1934, during which time they “seized land, redistributed it to American corporations” and “ran the country as if it were an American possession,” Robinson said.
The notion that the U.S. and its $100 million and its 10,000 troops are selfl essly rescuing a poverty-stricken nation is false and ridiculous. Haiti was destroyed by U.S. intervention long before the earthquake hit.

Inaccuracies in court column After reading your article titled “Factory-Line

Less safe on Obama’s watch As a former naval intelligence offi cer on a high
level staff (Top Secret Cryptographic clearance), I agree with President Obama that the breach of security associated with the Detroit-bound air-liner is “totally unacceptable”. The warning signs were there, but the intelligence community failed to recognize, analyze and disseminate the informa-tion. This is the same type of failure which led to the 9/11 attacks and the Ft. Hood massacre.
Although only a small percentage of Middle East inhabitants are terrorists, almost all of the terror-ists emanate from Middle Eastern countries. We have to pay much more attention to travelers to this country from the Middle East and a few other countries, and our Department of Homeland Se-curity has to work with foreign airports to beef up their security operations. We need many more in-telligence offi cials who are profi cient in Arabic and who can penetrate al-Qaida networks in various countries, including Iraq, Afghanistan, Pakistan and Yemen.
Unfortunately, the Bush Administration transferred a number of Yemini terrorists from Guantanamo Bay back to Yemen, and at least one of them was involved in the planning for the attack on the Detroit-bound airliner. President Obama wants to close down Guantanamo and transfer the terrorists to the U.S. mainland for prosecution. Will these terrorists be convicted of their crimes? Will they be executed? If not, how long will they stay in prison? Will they be eligible for parole? Will they spread their hate for the U.S. to other inmates? Why take a chance with these hard core terrorists? Keep them in Guantanamo.
We need President Obama to stop appeasing the leaders of countries that sponsor terrorism includ-ing Iran, Syria and Somalia; and he has to cease bowing to leaders of the world and appearing sub-servient to them. These actions are construed by terrorists as signs of weakness, which give the ter-rorists inspiration to attack us.
President Obama weakened the CIA operations, and the intelligence agencies in general, when he criticized the CIA for its interrogation techniques. Although
some of these techniques might be unacceptable to the world community, we have to be able to somehow access information from captured terrorists. I believe the recent failures of our intelligence agencies to provide warnings of potential terrorist activities can be partially attributable to some apathy and lack of initiative within the intelligence community, and President Obama bears some responsibility for the climate of distrust among intelligence offi cials.
Janet Napolitano is not qualifi ed to fi ll the position of Secretary of Homeland Security. We need a pro-fessional intelligence/security person in this critical position. Unfortunately most high level federal posi-tions, including cabinet positions, go to unqualifi ed politicians for payback for supporting the president during the campaign.
Note: The president was deeply involved and approved the people for these positions.
The United States is less safe on Obama’s watch, and we could be susceptible to on-going terrorist attacks due to an appeasing and apologetic presi-dent, incompetent Secretary of Homeland Secu-rity and weakened intelligence agencies.
P.S. Bring on the body scanners. At my age it could be exciting.
Donald A. MoskowitzLondonderry, NH
Southwestern company director of communications responds to column
This letter is in response to the opinion printed in your publication on Jan. 20, 2010, titled “Exclu-sive opportunity, or corporate exploitation?” by cre-ative writing sophomore Miranda Butler.
Southwestern was established in 1855 and is the nation’s oldest direct selling company. Since 1868, Southwestern has helped college students offset their educational expenses by providing a way for them to run their own businesses selling educational products to families throughout America. Students from over 300 campuses worldwide participate in the program. Over 40,000 students are interviewed each year, with between 2,600 and 3,000 who are selected and participate. There is an initial information session on campus, then several follow-up meetings prior to the week-long training program in Nashville, Tennessee. Parents of the students are involved throughout the process and are asked to endorse their student into the program. In addition, there is a rich history of success at UA, which fi nished as the 18th top campus in the world this past year.
For the record (in relation to the mis-stated facts of the article):
(1) The students,who are independent dealers (direct selling business model) are not required to purchase any product up front. They pay nothing to the company for initial supplies, samples and sales material. They are charged for merchandise only according to orders they place with Southwestern
so that they can deliver products to each of their own customers. Expenses are kept to a minimum, as is a good business practice in any venture.
(2) There is no profi t generated on either the student dealer’s part or Southwestern’s unless that student dealer is successful in generating a cus-tomer base and collecting payment. As well, the student must keep their operating expenses lower than their intake.
(3) “They’ll hire anybody.” — This is absolutely false. The program is selective on both sides, as it is simply not for everyone. There is also an interview process which includes interaction with parents.
(4) “Southwestern is so intent on hiring hordes of interns that they ask potential employees for names and phone number of their friends.” This is a common recruiting method used by all campus recruiters called “referrals.”
(5) Our program was described as a “huge risk to fi -nancially burdened college students.” Any business en-tails some degree of potential risk when you consider there is no ceiling or fl oor when it comes to income. Stu-dents are very much aware of this. In fact, this is what at-tracts many students. Most students who do participate are not looking for a job, they are seeking to learn a skill set to serve them in their careers and futures.
(6) First-year dealers who stay in the course all summer yield a healthy summer gross profi t of over $8,000. More seasoned dealers (more than one sum-mer) have many more customers.
To answer the question posed by Ms. Butler, “Is Southwestern the kind of corporation that talented UA students should work for?” Yes and no. That should be up to the students and their parents to decide in an informed, educated environment.
I doubt Michelle Miller, a senior theater major at the UA feels she was exploited. Last summer was her fourth summer in the program, and she made a gross profi t of more than $40,000 in three months. Are there some students who do not do as well? Sure. How many students enroll at UA and do not graduate? It is the same principle. Is there something wrong with the campus because some students do not complete their education? Not at all.
Bottom line: Editorials are about personal opin-ions. I appreciate your printing these established facts as well: Southwestern is a company that has been around since 1855, is in good standing with the university, has an A+ rating with the Better Business Bureau and has scores of students each year from the UA who participate knowing the potential risks and rewards of the program and who do succeed. They should be congratulated on stepping out of the normal collegiate comfort zone to see what they can achieve.

At colleges across the world, admissions offi cers are trying desperately to keep the two
genders at equal numbers, which might involve making admissions decisions that do not promote gender equality. Has the UA been letting in men based on something other than admissions qualifi cations?
As Kenyon College dean of admissions Jennifer Delahunty wrote in a 2006 guest column in the New York Times, “Beyond the availability of dance partners for the winter for-mal, gender balance matters in ways both large and small on a … college campus. Once you become decidedly female in enrollment, fewer males and, as it turns out, fewer females fi nd your
campus attractive.” Delahunty said at it was much
harder for a young woman to gain admission to an elite school simply
because males are a rarer commodity. “The fat acceptance envelope is simply more elusive for today’s accomplished young women,” Delahunty wrote.
International univer-sities are even dealing
with the issue of equality: as reported on international news Web site Javno.com on Jan. 12, “The Swedish government said Tuesday it would abolish affi rmative action at universi-ties since the practice has resulted in male students being given admissions priority for several popular programs.”
The U.S. Commission on Civil
Rights is investigating whether col-leges have been admitting less quali-fi ed men over more qualifi ed women because they fear becoming “over-whelmingly female.”
In a Nov. 11 interview on National Public Radio, reporter Claudia Sanchez said, “(Professor Gail) Heriot , a member of the U.S. Commission on Civil Rights, says colleges … are so worried about becoming overwhelmingly female that some may be rejecting highly qualifi ed women to make room for less qualifi ed men, and that, Heriot says, would be a violation of Title IX, the 1972 law that prohibits gender discrimination in any school or program that accepts federal aid. So what Heriot and other members of the Civil Rights Commission plan to do is subpoena the admissions records and policies of at least 12 public and private colleges. “
Heriot, of the University of San Diego, explained, “We don’t know whether were going to fi nd discrimi-nation at all, but were going to be looking. And we hope that if nothing else, this study will allow us to nail down the facts.”
So what about the UA? Has the UA been violating Title IX and admitting less-qualifi ed males over more quali-fi ed females?
Sorry, ladies, this won’t explain why the boys’ hall is always so much more disgusting than the girls’: Not only does the UA admit a higher percentage of its female applicants, the pool of male applicants admitted to the UA has higher average SAT and ACT scores.
After much investigation at the Admissions Offi ce and eventually the Offi ce of Institutional Research, it’s
clear that the UA is not sexist against women. Though the UA basically has open enrollment, information on the current freshman class reveals that males admitted to the UA were often better-qualifi ed (at least on a super-fi cial level) than females who were granted admission.
According to information on the class of 2013 compiled by the UA on Sept. 14, nearly 55 percent of the freshman class is female. While females had higher overall high school class rank and GPA, the males of ’13 had an average SAT score that was nearly 50 points higher.
The UA may have its problems, but, thankfully, sexism isn’t one of them.

Do college admissions practices violate Title IX?

More than $3.9 million from the federal govern-ment will help the UA research obesity. It will also go toward promoting community health advocacy in towns along the Arizona-Mexico border.
The Centers for Disease Control and Preven-tion funded the UA Canyon Ranch Center for Prevention and Health Promotion. The Canyon Ranch Center has received money every five years for the last 15 years.
This installment of the grant is meant to further advocacy efforts and policy change rather than funding only obesity research.
“At the end of this five years, we (want to) see communities that feel empowered to make healthier communities,” said Lisa Staten, director of the center at the UA Mel and Enid Zuckerman College of Public Health. “The goal is not just to stay here; it’s to create something and understand the kinds of things that happen that we can then describe to other people and send out to other places.”
Minorities in impoverished towns along the border often fall victim to poor nutritional variety, strained financial resources and a lack of knowl-edge about food.
These struggles lead to escalated rates of chron-ic diseases like cardiovascular disease, diabetes and obesity — something the center is working to reverse.
“In this one piece, you’ve got these incredible human assets that really care about their commu-nity, and on the other, you’ve got really high un-employment, the issue of low wage jobs, less than quality education … so people are struggling,” said Jill Guernsey de Zapien, associate dean for com-munity programs at the College of Public Health.
The center has programs which promote diet and exercise in border towns. They have a walk-ing club called Pasos Adelante, “Steps Forward” in English, and a farmer’s market program in stores and schools to encourage healthy eating.
Both Staten and Guernsey de Zapien agreed that the key to correcting this problem is in
empowering communities and their leaders.Susan Kunz, director of health promotion and
disease prevention in the Mariposa Community Health Center in Nogales, is excited about em-powering her community.
“The staff at the research center has a really good sense of how to partner in a respectful way with communities, and together we can maxi-mize our resources as providers,” Kunz said. “I’m really glad to be connected to the prevention re-search center.
“Incremental changes by individuals will happen over time,” she added, “and the focused attention of the center to each town really helps that to happen.”

Chronic Disease in Pima CountyOverweight means having a body mass
index, BMI, of more than 25. A BMI of more than 30 is considered obese. For example, if you are 5-feet-9 inches, between 125 and 168 pounds is a healthy weight. Between 169 and 202 pounds is considered overweight and anything over 203 pounds is obese. About 26 percent of Pima County residents are considered obese, which is close to the national average of 26.5 percent.
Minorities have disproportionately higher rates of obesity nationwide marked by poor conditions such as those in border towns, with 30 to 34 percent of Hispanic Arizonans being considered obese.
Between 7 and 8 percent of Pima County adults have diabetes, which is an obesity-related disease. The national average is 8.4 percent.
— Information derived from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, circa 2008.
Alvarez said. Some UA professors are not keen on carrying
weapons either. Michael Polakowski, a former law enforcement
officer and associate professor in the School of Government and Public Policy, does not support banning guns altogether, but believes carrying guns on campus is unnecessary.
“I generally think that arming citizens is never a good idea,” Polakowski said. “I think there are certain settings where it makes no sense to allow carrying a gun.”
Polakowski says bars, restaurants, courtrooms and academic settings are among some of the places that guns should not be allowed.
William Van Watson, a UA Italian professor, thinks guns should never have been included in the U.S. Constitution.
“I think we’re a hideously violent society,” Watson said.
Sen. Steve Pierce, R-District 1, takes a mod-erate approach to the debate and says that al-though he is in favor of lessening restrictions on guns, some lawmakers have taken things to far.
“I favor looser gun laws but sometimes down here, people get a little carried away,” Pierce said.
Pierce believes lawmakers have more pressing
issues to worry about and lobbying for less stringent gun laws is not among them.
“We need to be concentrating on balancing the budget, in my opinion,” Pierce said.
UA students are just as varied in their opin-ions when it comes to allowing guns at school. Alexis Scott, a sophomore majoring in business, says the proposed law is excessive.
“I think it is just unnecessary because there are plenty of police on campus,” Scott said.
Scott doesn’t believe that having more guns on campus will make the school a safer place.
“If someone has a mission to shoot someone, I think they’re going to do it.”
Other students say they would feel safer if their professors were allowed to bring guns to school.
“I would be perfectly all for it,” said Kaylena Gehrke, a sophomore majoring in animal sci-ence. “I’d feel better in my classroom because there are some interesting people running around here.”
Chris McHale, a freshman majoring in psy-chology, also supports professors having guns on campus.
“My teacher would be able to properly react if there is a situation,” he said.

Man in possession of crack pipeA UAPD officer was patrolling a UA parking lot at 435 N.
Fremont Ave. on Jan. 15 at 9:57 a.m. when a Tucson Unified School District employee flagged him down.
The employee said that he had seen a man walking through the parking lot around the same time a bunch of car alarms started to go off. As he was walking through the lot, he was also looking into the windows of some of the cars.
While checking the area of Sixth Street and Fremont Avenue, the officer noticed a man who matched the description the TUSD employee gave.
The officer questioned the man, who was identified by an Arizona identification card. The man revealed that he had a folding knife in his right front pocket.
The man told the officer that, while he was walking through the parking lot, he might have bumped into a few cars causing the alarms to go off, but he did not attempt to break into any of them.
When the officer asked the man if he had any objects on him about which the officer would be concerned, he became very agitated. Eventually he admitted to having a “crack pipe” inside of a nylon case in his pocket.
The man was arrested for possession of drug paraphernalia, and the broken glass pipe was placed into property. He was cited and released.

Don’t cry over spilt vodkaOn Jan. 15, a UAPD officer was sent to the Delta Chi fraternity
house located at 1701 E. First St. at 4:26 p.m. in response to a UA student who wanted to report an alleged assault during a party the evening before.
The woman told the officer that at 12:15 a.m. she and a friend went to a party at the Delta Chi house, where alcohol was being served.
The two women recognized two other female UA students at the party whom they knew from pictures on Facebook but had never met before.
The four women were in an on-going argument over an ex-boyfriend of one of the women.
After talking to one fo the woman, the student told the officer she was being called a “slut” and “bitch” and was told to “watch her back.”
The woman said that after she was told to watch her back she was then hit above her left eyebrow with a full, 12-ounce aluminum beer can.
After being hit, the woman spilt the vodka drink she was holding, and it splashed onto people around her. Her friend was also open-palmed slapped across the face.
People at the party separated the four women, and eventually the accused woman was asked to leave the party.
The officer spoke with the accused woman at her dorm, and she stated that she was not the one to start the fight and denied ever throwing a can. She added that her clothes had been ruined by the spilt vodka.
Statements were collected from the four women and they were all referred to the Dean of Students Office.

Fake $100 bill doesn’t buy books A UAPD officer was called to the UA Bookstore on East
University Boulevard on Jan. 15 at 10:47 a.m. in response to counterfeit reports.
The officer met with a member of the bookstore’s security, who stated that a UA student paid for textbooks using a fake $100 bill.
The student was identified by an Arizona driver’s license and stated that he did not know the bill was fake.
He stated that he got the bill out of the cash register at his father’s business. Highland Tower Motel on 1919 N. Oracle Rd.
His father had told him to take the money he needed to pay for his books, and the man said he never intended to use a fake bill.
After contacting the father of the student, the man said a guest of the motel used the bill the night before.
The bill was copied and placed into property. The offi cer requested that the case be referred to Tucson Police Department detectives and then followed up by the United States Secret Service.

repackaged, then those systems will go live, and so on, Hull said.
A forum to keep students abreast of changes will be held Thursday in the Student Union Memorial Center. “The forum is the second in a series which will occur twice a month throughout the implementation of Mosaic in spring and summer,” Hull said.
“Online tutorials will be there to aid in learning the new system; but overall the system remains “very self explanatory,” she said.
“Similar systems at Arizona State University and Northern Arizona University have been met with positive results,” Hull said.
Mar. 22 will be the big test of the Mosaic project, setting the stage for class registration and gearing up the program for the upcoming fall semester.
“The toolset is much better,” Bourgeois said. “So if you were of mind to worry about if the new sys-tem can support registration, rest assured it will.”
The next go-live event will occur on Feb. 15, affecting fi nancial aid information at the UA. This leads up to the March go-live event, which is around the time class registration for fall 2010 starts. Visible changes will be made to the registra-tion system of current and future students.

A. As with any medication, it’s always a good idea to ask about potential risks – even if they mightnot be immediate. Fortunately, oral contraceptives(aka “birth control pills” or “The Pill”) have beenshown to be safe for the vast majority of womensince their approval by the U.S. Food and DrugAdministration in 1960. In addition to the healthbenefits they provide in preventing unplannedpregnancies, oral contraceptive (OC) use isactually associated with a decreased risk ofovarian and endometrial cancer. Whether OCusers are more likely to develop breast cancer isstill being studied. Some studies have shown aslightly increased risk, while others have not.
Women who smoke have increased health-relatedrisks, so they are not good candidates for OCs. For those who do not use tobacco, seriouscomplications such as blood clots are very rare.Additionally, OC use does not impact long-termfertility; 97% of women are able to ovulate andconceive after a few weeks of discontinuing oralcontraception. And despite persistent myths, moststudies have not found a link between OC use andweight gain or mood changes.
Although OCs are very good at preventingpregnancy when used correctly, they offer noprotection against STDs. Next to abstinence,
practicing safer sex through condom use is stillthe best way to reduce your risk of STDs.
Along with information from your health careprovider, the following list of benefits and riskscan help you decide if OCs are right for you.
Benefits:• Highly effective in preventing pregnancy• Decreases menstrual bleeding and cramping• Lessens premenstrual symptoms• Makes periods more regular• May prevent ovarian and uterine cancer• Improves bone density• Lowers risk of ovarian cysts• PMS symptoms tend to improve • May improve acne
Risks:• No protection against STDs• Small risk of heart attack and stroke,
which increases among smokers• Can cause blood clots in rare cases• Can worsen severe diabetes
Many birth control options, including OCs, are available through theCampus Health Pharmacy. Toschedule an appointment withWomen’s Health, call 621-9202.

ASSET Foundation placed in the top 100 out of more than 700,000 charities in the fi rst round. They advanced to the second round, but didn’t see the success of the fi rst round.
“This entire competition has been a great learning experience and I have absolutely no re-grets about not winning, because we’ve learned so much from it,” Ray Umashankar said. “Our next goal is to really increase the number of fans for the ASSET India foundation and its projects, so when future competitions come up I can turn to the fans and say, ‘Hey, I need your help.’”
to advertise the Honda Insight. They brought three Honda Insights to be in the parade, and they had a prize wheel students could spin.
For the project, the students were only given one Honda, but they asked local car dealerships if they could use some for the Homecoming parade and Bear Down Friday.
“Their actual presentation was exceptional,” Sgro said. “They tied it into a big cultural iconic event at Arizona football. That’s what the students thought was a good platform for Honda. The ads, the branding and the messaging were dynamite.”
Singer said this was one of the best experi-ences he’s had at Eller and even one of the best of his life. He added that he originally had not considered competing in a marketing campaign his senior year.
He said what appealed to him about the Honda Insight Marketing Challenge was that students were given a real budget and had to create and implement a strategy.
The competition was very different from anything he’d ever done in the classroom or in other competitions.
“When you’re thrown into something like this where you have to implement a real cam-paign and you’re held accountable,it forces you to learn these skills,” Singer said.
As seniors, Singer and the other students walk away with not only the satisfaction of winning but also a beefed-up résumé.
“It gives them some very powerful, impres-sive talking points when they talk to prospec-tive employers,” Sgro said. “We’re not hiring right now, but I’d hire them in a minute.”

Nothing more than a victory TEMPE — Statistics don’t tell the
entire story, especially in rivalry games.
But in Arizona’s 77-58 victory against ASU on Saturday, the box score showed everything that had transpired in Wells Fargo Arena as the Wildcats snapped a five-game skid to ASU.
The stat sheet showed that neither team shot over 30 percent from the field or scored more than 27 points in the first half. It also told a story of two halves — a skewed 75 percent shooting for Arizona (10-9, 4-3 Pacific 10 Conference) in the second half compared to 32 percent for ASU.
Then, the box score gave evi-dence to the intense rivalry.
UA forward Kevin Parrom’s hard foul on ASU guard Ty Abbott gave Parrom a technical and personal foul, which fouled him out of the game with 8:36 remaining. In a situ-ation which might have fired up the Sun Devils (14-6, 4-3 Pac-10), it was the Wildcats who took the play to heart and ran away with the game.
“Coach, he wants us to play harder, especially on the road, and set the tone from the beginning,” said freshman forward Derrick Williams , who scored 20 points. “Actually, Kevin’s foul set the tone. Was it dirty? Good hard foul on the ball. That’s what set the tone.”
Sun Devil head coach Herb Sendek earned his own techni-cal foul exactly three minutes after Parrom received his, symbolizing the breakdown of ASU’s then-na-tion-leading defense, which gave up 52 points to the Wildcats in the second half. It was just two points short of the average 54 points per game ASU’s defense gave up com-ing into the Duel in the Desert.
At 24 percent and 29 percent shooting between UA and ASU in the first half respectively, neither team could penetrate the other’s interior defense. More than half of each teams’ shots came from beyond the 3-point stripe in the first half.
“Second half, we made an attempt to drive and then kick out to the open man,” point guard Nic Wise said. “We
were knocking down shots.”Wise scored 16 points and dished
out six assists while showing rare vocal emotion. It was understand-able after losing five straight games to the rival Sun Devils.
“Nic Wise is a very, very good player,” Miller said unprompted
after the game. “He’s seen it all. I think he set the tone for our team.”
In the second half, Arizona’s 75 percent and the Sun Devil’s 32 per-cent shooting was explained by the relentlessness of UA’s tempo. Their man-to-man defense stifled an ASU team with no go-to-shooter aside
from forward Rihards Kuksiks , who had a team-high of 15 points.
Despite being down 20-10, the Wildcats rallied behind their own brand of defense and went into halftime down only 27-25. Coming
TEMPE — Momo Jones called it the biggest game of the season, essentially making it the biggest
win of the season.It’s a claim that is highly unlikely to
withstand this cluster some call the Pacifi c 10 Conference.
It’s a conference in which parody has become cliché, upsets are invalid and nobody keeps track of places or rankings.
It’s a win carrying only one value: Better odds not to play the Pac-10 Tournament play-in game.
Statistically, that’s all that matters now.Mentally, the Wildcats are
growing up.“We’re not young anymore,” UA
junior Jamelle Horne said. “Put that in the newspaper.”
Naturally, breaking a fi ve-game losing streak against your fi rst-place rivals merits more than just a ‘W’ right? Those subconscious psychological barriers that linger around in press conferences — questions about matu-rity and confi dence — a 77-58 win like Saturday night’s improves those, right?
“Absolutely not. Absolutely not,” Horne said. “We came into our season with a goal to get better every game, every weekend. And we have.”
Nope, nobody would admit it.UA coach Sean Miller , quickly
evolving into The Cliché Machine, stayed numb to any external growths
In 2008, the UA men’s swim and dive team marched into Northern California and knocked off Stanford and California. Players and coaches alike made it clear that the pair of victories was a building block to a special national championship season.
This past weekend, both the men’s and women’s teams traveled back to the Bay Area for the same meets. Although the women dropped both dual meets, the No. 3 men’s team pulled out two dra-matic victories, once again leaving them with that feeling which led to a national championship two years prior.
“It was unbelievable how much ener-gy there was between us and how much trust there was in each other,” said se-nior co-captain Jean Basson. “I’ve never experienced anything to that extreme in a dual meet in my four years here.”
In Saturday’s action, the UA men’s team erased a 40-point defi cit in cold and rainy conditions against No. 4 Cal en route to an impressive 157-141 victory.

The ASU Sun Devils won the Duel in the Desert in Tucson on Sunday, coming away with a 73-67 victory over the Arizona women’s basketball team .
Sun Devil and Wildcat fans fi red chants back and forth the entire game, but ultimately ASU (12-6, 4-3 Pacifi c 10 conference) was able to hold off a late Wildcat run to secure their ninth straight win against Arizona (9-8, 3-4).
“It’s very frustrating, because we have come so close every year,” said Arizona junior Ify Ibekwe . “It’s tough because this is a big rivalry.”
The Wildcats jumped out to a quick 7-2 lead after Ibekwe knocked down a jumper with 17:01 left to play in the fi rst half.
ASU responded by running off a 9-2 run, taking advantage of early Wildcat turnovers and crashing the boards offensively.
Arizona was out-rebounded in the game 48-36, including 21-12 on the of-fensive end.
“We don’t do a good job rebounding, so until we correct that I think this is going to be a problem,” head coach Niya Butts said after the game.
Trailing by fi ve with 12:26 left to play in the half, Arizona leading scorer Davellyn Whyte got into the box score by hitting a 3-pointer to jumpstart what was a stalling Wildcat offense.
The momentum resulted in a 12-2 Arizona run that gave the Wildcats a 27-23 advantage with 4:47 left in the fi rst half. Arizona went on a late 8-0 run in the fi rst half, capped by an Ibekwe steal that saw the junior take the ball coast to coast for the layup, energizing the Arizona crowd.
Ibekwe secured a double–double in the fi rst half, fi nishing the game with 25 points and 16 rebounds, and sending the Wildcats to the locker room with a 35-31 halftime lead.

After being limited to one day of prac-tice last week, the Arizona Icecats took care of business against the University of Nevada, Las Vegas on Saturday, out-playing the Runnin’ Rebels from start to finish en route to a 6-3 victory.
“This is a real nice victory, and I’m proud of all of the guys that dressed and the guys that played,” said head coach Leo Golembiewski. “Just a solid team effort.”
After being swept by UNLV in late-October, the Icecats (10-12) were ready to play this time around.
“We knew last time that we could beat them,” said senior Micah Kneeshaw. “We knew we had enough talent, it just didn’t happen. We were ready for them tonight.”
The Icecats have been a tough team to beat when they play with intensity for the first few minutes of the game. They did exactly that Saturday, scoring two goals in the first five-and-a-half minutes.
Freshman Jeff Back found the net 5:01 into the first period. The Icecats added another goal only 20 seconds lat-er when Kneeshaw scored off of a feed from freshman Shane MacLachlan.
After two more first-period goals from freshman standout Brian Slugocki, the Icecats led 4-0 and never looked back. Slugocki finished the game with a hat trick and now has 25 goals in only 21 games.
“He’s done a remarkable, remark-able job,” Golembiewski said. “He’s an energizer bunny. He turns on the speed; he can turn the corner and burn around people. A heck of a per-formance again by him.”
Slugocki has now scored at least one goal in nine of the last 10 games and is
currently riding a six-game goal-scoring streak. For a player who barely played at the club level last season, Slugocki has emerged as the Icecats’ No. 1 goal-scorer and a constant threat on the ice.
“It’s unbelievable. It’s awesome,” Slugocki said of his success this season.
Slugocki cited a newfound confidence as the reason for his success this season.
“The coaches, they trusted me that I was going to be able to play and I just flourished from there,” he said. “Last
season, I didn’t have as much confi-dence as I should have in myself, but this season, I just go out there think-ing I’m the best player on the ice and that’s what’s gong on right now.”
Once again, Slugocki was terrific, and the Icecats played one of their most complete games all season. The offense was clicking, freshman goalten-der David Herman was almost flawless between the pipes, and it resulted in a much-needed win for the Icecats.
They will travel to Tempe this weekend to take on the No. 8 ASU Sun Devils. The Icecats have dropped the first four games to ASU this season and will need to play near-perfect hockey to take down the Sun Devils in their barn.
“I think we just need to play a con-sistent game right off the bat,” Slugocki said. “Sometimes against ASU we play 30 minutes, if that. Hopefully we come out strong, have all of the guys fresh. It should be a good game.”
Gordon Bates/Arizona Daily WildcatFreshman forward Brian Slugocki comes at the UNLV goaltender in the Arizona Icecats’ 6-3 victory against the Runnin’ Rebels in the Tucson Convention Center on Saturday. Slugocki finished the game with three goals and continues to be a pleasant surprise for the Icecats this season.

Butts spoke earlier about the physical brand of basketball that the Sun Devils play coming into a game, and ASU brought it Sunday from the very beginning with plenty of contact off the ball and inside the paint.
“They were very physical with us; we had to match their physicality,” Ibekwe said of ASU’s style of play. “We have been play-ing against bigger and stronger teams all season, so it was nothing new, it was just ASU’s intensity that was the difference.”
Knotted up at 44-44 with 14:51 left to play in regulation, ASU went on an 11-0 run sparked by their two leading scorers, Becca Tobin and Danielle Orsillo.
The Wildcats chipped away at their def-icit and clawed back to pull within three, 67-64, with 0:39 to play in the game.
Whyte stole the ball on the ASU in-bounds pass but quickly had her pass stolen as she attempted to dish the ball inside, giving the Sun Devils possession as they were able to run the clock out for the win. Whyte, who finished the game with 22 points, noted the freshness of ASU’s defense due to their deep bench and constant rotation on defense.
“They kept switching the defender on me so they always had someone fresh on me,” the freshman guard said.
Butts continues to see growth in her team, but after yesterday’s loss she harped on the team’s occasional lack of intensity and fundamentals that are standing in the way of their overall ability.
“I don’t think we should be losing games based on things outside of abil-ity,” she explained. “I want to give (ASU) credit for coming in here and fighting and playing a tough game. I thought in so many ways they wanted it more, more than we wanted to beat ASU.”

For many teams, season openers come with rust and pre-match jitters. But if the Arizona men and women tennis teams had any over the past week-end, they didn’t show it, as both squads posted impressive team wins.
On Saturday, the women opened up with a 6-1 victory over University of California, Santa Barbara and didn’t falter Sunday with a perfect 7-0 score over University of California, Davis.
“I was very pleased,” said women’s head coach Vicky Maes. “I was impressed with their fight (Saturday) but even more so (Sunday) because their matches took them all the way to the end. Even the matches we won easily in score were long, tough games. We all had to play well and fight.”
On Saturday, the women were close to post-ing a perfect team score until sophomore Natasha Marks, the Intercollegiate Tennis Association’s No. 46 ranked singles player, injured her ankle in the third game of her match. She then had to play on her sprained ankle for the next set and a half, which totaled 11 games.
“I could move forward, I just had no change of direction,” said Marks, who was in a protec-tive boot soon after her match. “My ankle just felt crappy, and I just couldn’t move well.”
Marks’ match was the only point the Wildcats lost all weekend. The women also swept their three doubles matches to finish the weekend.
Sophomore Sarah Landsman replaced Marks in the No. 1 position Sunday and defeated UC Davis’ Desiree Stone 6-7, 6-3, 6-1.
In the No. 2 position, senior Ariane Masschelein won her match 6-1, 6-3. Freshman Alexandrina Naydenova then handily won her first match with Arizona in the No. 3 slot 6-2, 6-1.
“I think as a team we’re moving in the right di-rection,” Maes said. “We have a lot of work to do and our competition is only going to get tougher, but I think these were two really good team wins for us, which is what I’m looking for. If we con-tinue on like this, we’ll have some surprise wins.”
The men also took care of business, as they cruised against Montana State on Sunday for a perfect 7-0 win.
“Today the guys came with great energy and they competed really well,” said men’s head coach Tad Berkowitz. “It was perfect for us to get the nerves and the kinks out and get the rust off. That showed a bit early in doubles, but once we got settled in, we were on our way.”
The Wildcats, the ITA’s No. 24-ranked team, started the meet winning all three doubles matches and then proceeded to dominate singles. In the No. 1 position, Jason Zafiros won 6-2, 6-3. Meanwhile, No. 2 Andres Carrasco earned a 6-3, 6-1 victory, and Andres Arango cruised to 6-3, 6-0 win in the No. 3 spot.
“As far as effort, energy and competitiveness, it was an ‘A,’” Berkowitz said. “They had great focus and energy. Obviously we can play better, and as we get deeper in our season, playing tougher teams will let the guys raise their game up another notch.”
The men will travel to Alabama for their next meet Jan. 30 and 31 for the ITA National Indoors against the University of Alabama, the No. 18 ranked team by the ITA. The women will host NAU on Jan. 30 at LaNelle Robson Tennis Center on campus.
“Just knowing that, even in the worst type of circumstances — terrible weather, rain, being freezing cold, being behind by a bunch of points, being away at another team’s pool on their senior day — we can still kind of pull it out and pull out all of the stops, that’s huge for our confidence,” said Jean Basson.
While Basson won both of his individual events on the day, the Cal victory was the epito-me of a team effort. Even junior diver Ben Grado made an impact in the final tally, winning both the 1- and 3-meter events to give the Wildcats a much-needed boost in points.
“Ben did a great job this weekend,” said head coach Frank Busch. “He’s going to be critical in helping our men.”
The victory against Cal proved the resiliency and hunger of the men’s team. They fought back against all odds only 24-hours after coming from behind to defeat No. 2 Stanford 174-124 under the very same conditions.
“Winning against Stanford definitely drained us physically and emotionally,” Basson said. “Then to come back the next day with a bigger, come-from-behind victory, it was amazing.”
Grado and sophomore diver Andres Guerra were also huge in the Stanford victory, outscoring
Cardinal divers 25-11. The No. 2 women’s squad didn’t shine quite as
bright in the Stanford meet, as it fell 173-125. The women also lost the battle against No. 5 Cal, 165-134.
“The girls probably learned a little bit more about themselves as a team,” Busch said. “They learned kind of what it’s going to take for them to be as good as they can be.”
In 2008, it was outstanding performances in these very meets that marked the beginning of a national championship run. Two years later, the Wildcats rose to the occasion again and put on a display of great swimming, fueled by teamwork, trust and desire.
“I think the men were certainly focused and determined this weekend,” Busch said. “In re-gards to having something in their sights, the men certainly do right now. They feel like they’re lined up for what they want.”
The teams will continue their road toward the NCAAs this Friday and Saturday as they host swimming super-power University of Texas.
After this weekend, the men’s team will have faced off against the No. 1, No. 2 and No. 4 teams all in a two-week span, a challenge that Busch believes will help the team greatly when March rolls around.
“It’s how you get better,” Busch said. “If you want to get better, you’ve got to compete against the best.”
Men poised, successful against Stanford and Cal

UA tennis teams post dominating victories
Little problems for men’s, women’s tennis team as they cruise to victory in season openers
out of the break, the team stuck with their game plan and eventually broke the game wide open.
“I will say, when you’ve played 10 games away from home, it starts to work in your fa-vor,” Miller said. “You understand winning or losing at halftime doesn’t mean a lot.”
As his team began to adjust to ASU’s match-up zone, and the Sun Devils continued to miss shots, Arizona took advantage, moving the ball
up the court off rebounds for fast-break layups. UA guard Kyle Fogg, who led all scorers with 21 points, scored 13 points in the second half.
Miller said the win was a solid victory and noth-ing more. But after a frustrating period of losses to ASU, Wise couldn’t hide his satisfaction.
“This is what it has been,” Wise said of the rivalry before the losing streak. “This year it’s a different game, different story.”
UA takes advantage of Sun Devils’ poor shooting

Arizona men’s and women’s track and field spent their Saturday morning in heated competition with four major universities at the New Mexico Cherry & Silver Invitational in Albuquerque. The Wildcats faced off against Brigham Young University, Stanford University, the University of California, Berkeley and the University of New Mexico, amongst others. While not as spectacu-lar as the season opener, the meet still had some strong points for Arizona.
Freshman high jumper Brigetta Barrett showed up to compete. Barrett tied the record mark at New Mexico’s Albuquerque Convention Center with a height of 6 feet, 3/4 inches and got her guaranteed spot at the NCAA National Championships.
“I’m glad that I auto-qualified for Nationals, but I still want to jump a lot higher … but I’m disappointed I didn’t beat the record,” said Barrett. “I felt like I had it, but it slipped away from me.”
Barrett is the second UA women’s high jumper to gain a spot at the na-tional championships, along with se-nior Liz Patterson.
This meet marked the distance run-ners’ first appearance of the season.
Redshirt sophomore Abdi Hassan came in first in the men’s 800-meter with a time of 1 minute, 50 seconds.
For the women, junior Maggie Callahan came in first in the mile with a time of 5:01. The women’s distance squad almost had a sweep of the mile but lost second place to UNM.
The men’s triple jump also had their first competition of the season. Freshman Nick Ross came in fifth with a distance of 49 feet, 11 1/4 inches while senior Luis Rivera-Morales came in seventh with a distance of 49 feet, 6 1/2 inches.
The women’s 400m relay team improved their time from last week’s meet by coming in first with a time of 3:44.
In the women’s shot put, Arizona took the top four spots, with freshman Julie Labonte coming in first with a throw that went 50 feet, 6 inches. Freshman Alyssa Hasslen, sophomore Taylor Freeman and freshman Omotayo Talabi followed her in the rankings.
At the end of the day, Arizona won six events, including Rivera-Morales’ win in the men’s long jump with a distance of 23 feet, 11 inches. Senior Chris Titsworth also won the men’s 60m hurdles with a time of 8.13 seconds to round out the Wildcats’ victories of the weekend.
Track and field rack up NCAA qualifiers

in confidence, aggressiveness or the rivalry itself.
“To make this any bigger than a win for our team would be foolish,” Miller said.
But what about the rivalry and breaking a five-game losing streak?
“It doesn’t mean a lot,” Miller said.But it’s a rivalry, right?“Every Pac-10 game is an im-
portant one. As long as we played extremely hard, we’ll deal with the consequence, win or lose,” said Miller, yet to recognize the importance of this game.
Miller and his staff are from the East Coast, and the only in-state players are DJ Shumpert and Brendon Lavender.
Only Nic Wise is old enough for this rivalry to have grown on him, and only a freshman is young enough to put some emotion into a post-game press conference.
“He didn’t want to go out on a losing streak,” freshman Derrick Williams said of Wise. “He wanted to change that. Go out on top. That’s what we’re trying to do here.”
Wells Fargo Arena began a vintage early exodus with under six minutes remaining, leading to “Ari-zona” chants echoing in the buttes and waves goodbye from the Wildcat faithful.
Just minutes earlier, Kevin Parrom threw down an Aubrey Coleman, momentum-bursting takedown which could’ve easily swung in the Sun Devils’ favor.
ASU’s Ty Abbott went up for an easy basket against a guy from Bronx, N.Y., where there are no easy buckets.
“ASWho ?!?!? I’m From Tha Bronx New York .. No Easy Buckets !!!” said Parrom on Twitter.
Parrom took down Abbott with a hard foul, leading to a near-brawl. Miller ran onto the court to protect his players and diffuse the tension. Fans wanted him T’d up. The referee escorted them back to the bench.
Somehow water bottles didn’t fly during these tense moments. Parrom received his fourth (personal) and fifth (technical) fouls and then walked over to the bench for a pep talk with fellow New Yorker Jones.
UA went on a 9-2 run and never looked back.
“We love to see Kev (Parrom) not give up an easy basket,” Horne said. “We hate to see a hard foul like that and the refs taking it that kind of way. When he came out, he told us to stick with it. ‘Don’t let me being out change the game.’”
Kyle Fogg added: “He didn’t want to hurt anyone, but it got kind of crazy down there. We just brought it
in. The momentum could’ve swung either way.”
Now the Sun Devils will have to wait another year for as intense an atmosphere and big a game as Saturday’s.
Friday morning, outside ASU’s W. P. Carey Business School, hundreds of students scrambled to their next class or lunch at the nearby Memorial Union wearing yellow and maroon t-shirts. The game was more than 24 hours away, debunking some com-mon stereotypes:
Yes, they attend classes on Friday.Yes, they care about basketball.The first-place Sun Devils played in
front of a sold-out Wells Fargo Arena with the least amount of red in recent memory.
Students lined up early and filled the section better than the Zona Zoo.
Maybe this could’ve caught on. It looked promising for a few days.
“There will be only 10 fans next week against Cal,” predicted ASU’s State Press basketball writer Andrew Gruman, confirming the fair-weather nature of Sun Devil fans after a loss to the Wildcats.

The No. 20 UA gymnastics team faced off against in-state rival ASU on Sunday and left with their first win of the season, 195.675-194.9.
“It was certainly one of the most grat-ifying victories at my time at Arizona,” said head coach Bill Ryden. “It’s not be-
cause it was ASU, it was more because of the situation the team was put in and how they rose above the challenge.”
The Gymcats (1-2), who have already been hit hard this season with injuries, were dealt another blow as they lost sophomore Deanna Graham for the meet. Graham could not practice all week as she was battling an illness.
During a gymnastics meet both
teams are allowed to put up 24 routines, 21 of which count toward scoring. Due to injuries, Arizona only completed 21 routines, meaning any falls or mistakes they made would have to be counted.
“No one chooses to do what we did today,” Ryden said. “You know we’re all still a little speechless by it, but we’re all very proud of this team and of what we have done.”
Senior Sarah Tomczyk had a career night. She put up numbers of 9.925, 9.9, 9.775 and 9.850 in vault, bars, beam and floor, respectively. Tomczyk took first place in the vault and floor events.
“There is always room for improvement. I mean I am very happy with my scores and stuff but there is details still that I haven’t taken care of yet,” Tomczyk said.
“Our team just handled the pressure extremely well and it was just really fun just to be competing on the team and to walk out of there with a victory,” she added. “We were just on a high when we left.”
Ryden said that Tomczyk’s perfor-mance was the best of her career.
“It is a testament to her and the heart of the team,” Ryden said.
