SERVING THE UNIVERSITY OF ARIZONA SINCE 1899

More units, extra cost for some

By Eliza Molk DAILY WILDCAT

Overachievers, beware: You may be in for an unpleasant surprise when the bursar’s bill arrives.

The Excess Units Surcharge, enacted in 2005 by the Arizona Legislature, charges a per-unit fee to undergraduates who have not yet earned their degree and have completed 145 units or more. The surcharge is per semester and differs for residents and nonresidents.

The legislative body in 2005 viewed students accumulating “unnecessary” and “excessive” course credits as “inefficient” progress toward baccalaureate degree attainment, according to Katie Paquet, associate vice president for public affairs and external relations for the Arizona Board of Regents. The sur-

charge was enacted so dollars appropriated by the state are maximized for students working toward degree attainment, Paquet explained.

“The surcharge is a mechanism to offset lost state funding for these students,” she said.

Alex Yang, an aerospace engineering senior slated to eventually pay the surcharge, said the policy sends “mixed signals” to students. This is because general education classes “supposedly diversify our education,” he said, which is why students like him and others chose to take extra classes.

“I want to be more well-rounded with more subjects than just what I am required to study,” Yang said. “It (the policy) makes me think that it’s all about the money and not about the supposed inefficient use.”

Currently, 13 students who do not meet any of the policy’s exemptions are paying the surcharge. Elizabeth Acree, an enrollment manager at the Office of the Registrar, said that out of the handful of students who get “caught” in the policy, four or five will question it and want an explanation.

In the scope of 39,000 students, she explained, that is “not a lot.”

Acree said that the policy is often situational. There are times when students continue to take classes and don’t progress, she explained, but there are students who have legitimate reasons and often want to CREDIT, 2

HARDLY PARTY Survey shows steady decline in level of student alcohol use

By Michelle A. Weiss DAILY WILDCAT

T

he number of alcoholic drinks consumed by the average UA student has fallen considerably since 2002, according to the results of this year’s Health and Wellness survey.

In 2002, survey results indicated that the average student had 7.6 drinks per week. In the spring of 2011, the number dropped to 4.3, said David Salafsky, director of Health Promotion and Preventive Services.

“I think alcohol is one of those things that people think, ‘It’s never going to change, students are always going to drink,’” Salafsky said. “I think to some extent that’s probably true.”

This year does not appear to be an outlier either. According to Salafsky, the results indicate a “significant reduction year after year” over the last decade.

This year’s data showed that 83 percent of UA students party one night per week or less.

“I would’ve thought it would be more,”

4.3

said Ella Moore, a nutritional sciences sophomore.

She said the University of Arizona Police Department is strict, so she doesn’t go to house parties anymore.

“They (UAPD) are crazy,” Moore said.

Rachel Low, a marketing freshman, said she could believe that drinking has dropped because of the strict drinking and driving laws.

The survey also indicated that 98 percent of UA students prefer to date someone who drinks moderately or doesn’t drink at all.

“I wouldn’t want to date an alcoholic but I don’t care if they drink,” Moore said.

topic, so is sex. Salafsky said for 2011, 66 percent of UA students who have had sexual intercourse in the past year said they usually or always use a condom.

The survey also takes into account relationship status. Furthermore, 79 percent of UA students had one or no sexual partners.

“College students, by in large, are a pretty healthy population,” Salafsky said.

However, he thinks the two most significant factors facing students in terms of their health are things related to alcohol and mental health, he said.

“If we look at the leading causes of death among college students, number one is motor vehicle accidents, of course we all know alcohol plays a role in that,” he said. “And number two is suicide.”

UA store matches prices on textbooks

By Amer Taleb DAILY WILDCAT

Textbook suppliers catering to UA students may have met their match in the UofA Bookstore.

A revision to the bookstore’s Lowest Price Guarantee pits the bookstore’s price-matching service against online retailers in addition to UA-area bookstores.

After buying a textbook from the bookstore, students have one week to find a cheaper price online and collect the difference in cash.

Verification of the lower price can be printed or shown to the cashier via a mobile device. Peer-to-peer selling is excluded and books must have the same cover and be of the same condition. Only required or recommended textbooks are eligible.

“It’s pretty straight forward,” said Kurtis Durfey, marketing specialist for the UofA Bookstore. Durfey said the service was introduced to tie together the low prices of online merchants without forcing students to wait for a mail arrival or pay for shipping.

Rachel Underwood, a junior studying Spanish, said the service would not impact her significantly because she buys most of her textbooks through online peer-to-peer selling. Shopping at the bookstore is a last resort, she said.

“Their prices are ludicrously high and their buy-back rates are ludicrously low,” she said.

Durfey emphasized that the bookstore is working in the interest of students, not against themBOOKSTORE, 2

Rushing in: Frats open for new recruits About 1,000 men interested in joining a fraternity are slated to rush this week, according to Michael Colletti, Interfraternity Council president.

Unlike its sorority counterpart, men’s rush is informal and those rushing can visit any of the 20 Interfraternity Council chapters they are most interested in joining. Colletti said he recommends men rushing visit a larger amount of chapters at the beginning of the week, then whittle it down toward the end.

Colletti said he is expecting about 100 more men to rush this year than last year because of the council’s more innovative marketing strategy.

BOOKSTORE

Book prices and buy back rates are dependent on a number of factors, including publisher pricing and student enrollment.

“We’re not a private enterprise that’s leasing the space on campus and sending revenue to the shareholders in Connecticut,” he said.

“Everything we do is with the benefit of the student in mind.”

The bookstore is a division of Student Affairs and exists to serve the student population, Durfey said. After covering costs like operating, labor and inventory, the rest of the money is circulated back into campus.

The bookstore annually contributes more than $790,000 to support the Associated Students of the University of Arizona and student clubs and organizations and nearly $15,000 for UA student and bookstore employee scholarships.

Underwood said she appreciates the work the bookstore does for campus, but would like to see the detailed documents for herself.

The council put table toppers in the Student Union Memorial Center, flyers in residence halls and classrooms and a banner on the mall.

“We are trying new things this year to reach more eyes and get more men interested in registering (to rush),” he said.

“They can’t just say ‘it goes back to the university’ and not tell you where,” she said. “For all I know they could be paying the $2 million to our basketball coach.”

Kayleigh Orozco, a sophomore studying pre-physiology and psychology, said she shops at the bookstore because it’s convenient and she knows they will have what she wants. Orozco said she appreciates the new guarantee and would like to see the bookstore contribute more money to lowering the cost of tuition through scholarships and other services.

“The campus is already nice,” she said. “We need lower tuition.”

Arizona Bookstore, a privately owned business located at 845 N. Park Ave, offers price matching with local competitors, but not online retailers.

Mike Lammers, the store’s manager, said he was not worried about losing business to the UofA Bookstore as a result of their revision. Arizona Bookstore has excellent customer service and students appreciate it, he added. Lammers said Arizona Bookstore tries to beat

high school grade point average or a 2.5 cumulative college GPA after 12 or more college credits, was another way to increase membership, according to Colletti.

Rush registration cost $10 and all proceeds go to the Emerge Center Against Domestic Abuse. The last day of registration was Sunday, at which point the fee increased to $20. Rush events vary from chapter to chapter, because each specific chapter is responsible for creating their own events. Those who receive bids, or invitations to join fraternal organizations, have up to a year to accept it.

the UofA Bookstore’s on prices but could not provide specific numbers.

He said Arizona Bookstore will consider online price matching in the future.

“People forget about that bookstore,” Orozco said. “The customer service is really good, but it’s on the outskirts of campus and people don’t go there as much.”

The UofA Bookstore, however, retains the right to “change the details of this offer at any time,” according to the bookstore website. Durfey said the reservation is in place to add improvements to things like customer service. Students should not worry about the service being repealed because of a loss of money by the bookstore, he said.

Durfey said it was too early to tell how the service would affect revenue, but he expects the bookstore to at least break even. He said success will be determined by the number of students that take advantage of the guarantee.

“I encourage you to price shop, especially now with this new offer,” Durfey said. “There’s really no reason to go anywhere else.”

Chi fraternity, said fraternities are a great “first step” to get involved on campus.

“Fraternities open doors,” he said.

“Between leadership, academics and intramural sports, you can get as involved as possible.”

Scott Lampert, an economics junior, said his fraternity, Phi Kappa Tau, has been his family for the past two years and that the members are the “greatest group of guys” he has met in his life.

“The best things that have happened in college are because of this fraternity,” he said.

Men interested in rushing attended a pre-rush event on Aug. 25 on the UA Mall. Different fraternities tabled the event and acquainted themselves with

SURVEY

a federal grant through Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration on Aug. 1, Salafsky said. The three-year grant is meant to help prevent suicide and related risk factors on campus, he said.

“I think one of the things we’ve seen over time is really a growing need for mental health services,” Salafsky said. “I know our Counseling and Psychological Services staff here at Campus Health has increased over the year to help meet that need.”

In regard to the survey, 27 percent of students indicated they had anxiety or depression. Of those students, 46 percent indicated they had not been diagnosed with anxiety or depression, he said.

“There’s obviously some issues there and we want to try to address those better,” Salafsky said. This is one of the things Campus Health wants to target by using the grant, he said.

Salafsky said he feels confident in the results of the survey. For 2011,

there was a sample size of 2,479 respondents.

“A lot of people look at the fact that U of A is 39,000 students, ‘How can 2,400 students represent that?’”

Salafsky said.

The answer is that classes are chosen at random, rather than picking a specific day of the week or targeting a particular college to survey, he said. The selection methodology is at random.

“Our sample size is quite large,” Salafsky said.

The data is not only used by Campus Health, but they also prepare reports and provide the data to those interested in the health needs of the population, he said.

“A great thing about the data is it brings people together to work on these issues and try to make the student experience a better one,” Salafsky said.

“It’s tradition,” Paffenbarger said.

CHRIS SEWARD/ MCT

Floodwaters surround a pickup truck on Highway 55 outside New Bern, N.C., in the aftermath of Hurricane Irene on Saturday.

Irene causes flooding, outages Hurricane hits East Coast hard, but not as severely as some feared MCCLATCHY TRIBUNE

NEW YORK — Already a killer storm, Irene sloshed through the New York metropolitan area Sunday, briefly flooding parts of the city and severing power to a million people but not provoking the doomsday urban disaster that had been feared.

Diminished to a tropical storm and racing to its own demise in New England and Canada, Irene killed at least 14 people in six states. More than 4.5 million customers lost power along the East Coast and well inland.

Initial property damage estimates ranged up to $7 billion.

And it was not over yet.

Irene dumped immense amounts of rain on a region already saturated by summer downpours. Many communities in Pennsylvania, New Jersey, upstate New York, Connecticut, Vermont and elsewhere endured life-threatening flash floods and toppling trees.

Authorities warned of more to come, and they begged residents not to become complacent. It takes some time for rain runoff to accumulate, they said, tree roots

were weakening in the over-moist soil, and the danger will not end for days.

“Stay inside,” Gov. Chris Christie told New Jersey residents. “The real issue that we’re going to have to deal with now is flooding.

We’re going to experience major flooding.

Some rivers haven’t crested yet, and it’s still raining.”

Christie noted at least 300 road closures and obstructions across his state, though he said the New Jersey Turnpike and bridges were clear and that tree-clearing equipment was on its way.

In New York City, ocean surf invaded some beachside communities, and both the East River and the Hudson River overtopped their banks, but the resulting floods were not major and most receded quickly. At the same time, numerous waterborne rescues were necessary in Staten Island, Westchester County and other parts of the area.

“It was pretty scary at four in the morning when I was woken up by the wind, but other than that, things don’t seem so bad,” said Nora Flaherty of Brooklyn. “I’m glad people took this seriously. Better safe than sorry.”

By midday, with the rain coming to an end, she and many other New Yorkers ventured outside to inspect their surroundings and walk their dogs.

Heights, little damage was evident, though the basement of some brownstone townhouses flooded. Residents reported two to three inches of water in their apartments, saying there would have been more if they hadn’t created sandbag dams at the entrances.

Young children in raincoats and boots stomped through puddles, laughing as they were blown about in the wind, and life began returning to normal in other ways. The New York Stock Exchange planned to open for business as usual Monday and, consequently, the Men’s Wearhouse store near Wall Street re-opened for business Sunday.

“The city and the state did a phenomenal job of getting everyone ready and were very forceful in terms of recommending evacuations, especially from the low-lying areas — I’m very happy about that,” said Scott Schoneman, a New York resident who works in the financial industry. “And the storm itself, it didn’t seem to be as bad as they were predicting.”

Along Irene’s path, the death toll was expected to increase, but authorities said it could have been much worse. The evacuation of at least 2.3 million coastal residents — and other precautions — “dramatically reduced risk to life,” Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano said after briefing President Barack Obama.

The surcharge is calculated to be 20 percent of tuition for the academic year. This is why it varies per unit depending on if the student is a resident or nonresident.

While the 2005 Legislature viewed exceeding the credit threshold as ineffi-

cient, some students think otherwise.

Yang added he was unaware about the policy until a friend brought it up to him. Acree said the UA does not have a mechanism in place to notify students who are approaching the 145-unit benchmark.

Amanda Fahey, a pre-journalism freshman, said that she has not heard about the policy and does not think students should be charged for going “above and beyond.”

“These students are taking their education further,” she said. “We are paying enough already.”

Women’s Equality Day heightens everyday standards Kristina Bui Daily Wildcat

I

f, like me, you were too busy celebrating the end of the first week of the semester to notice, President Barack Obama issued an official proclamation on Thursday. We should have pulled out the party hats, you guys. Obama proclaimed it: Friday was Women’s Equality Day. Oh, gosh. How terribly sad. We missed it. What will we do on the 364 other days of the year?

In the interest of fairness, you can’t accuse just the Obama administration of quiet, hollow gesturing. Every president since 1971, the year Rep. Bella Abzug pushed Congress to pass legislation designating Aug. 26 as Women’s Equality Day, has published a proclamation for it.

Way to ride Abzug’s coattails, dudes.

According to Obama’s proclamation, “the 19th Amendment to the United States Constitution tore down the last formal barrier to women’s enfranchisement in our nation and empowered America’s women to have their voices heard in the halls of power.” Aug. 26 marks the anniversary of the 19th Amendment, giving women the right to vote.

On the 91st anniversary of this day, Obama’s proclamation stated, “We are working to ensure that womenowned businesses can compete in the marketplace, that women are not discriminated against in health care, and that we redouble our efforts to bring an end to sexual assault on college campuses.”

“Thanks for the shiny proclamation, Mr. President. It’s not as meaningless as we think it is, but it’s also not as true as we’d like it to be.”

We are working, still. That’s the part to keep in mind.

Despite tearing down the last “formal barrier to women’s enfranchisement,” women still earn less than men do.

Unrestricted access to safe abortion and contraceptives is still limited in many states, including Arizona. Sexual assault on college campuses is a legitimate issue, but so is sexual assault anywhere.

The emptiness of the Women’s Equality Day proclamation should not distract from the Obama administration’s bigger efforts, such as the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act and the creation of the Council on Women and Girls. The proclamation should have been treated as a reminder of achievements such as these, of how far we’ve come through history. It should also serve as a reminder of how much ground there is left to cover.

In fall 2008, 55 percent of students enrolled at universities nationwide were female, according to data collected by the U.S. Census Bureau. In 2009, 29.9 million women ages 25 and older had a bachelor’s degree or better. Only 28.7 million men did. Women also had more high school diplomas and associate and master’s degrees. However, more men had professional or doctoral degrees than women. Women still earn 77 cents to every dollar earned by men.

Thanks for the shiny proclamation, Mr. President. It’s not as meaningless as we think it is, but it’s also not as true as we’d like it to be.

Women’s Equality Day is one day of many on which we have to honor what has been accomplished by acknowledging the amount of work that’s left to be done.

If Women’s Equality Day is the one day of the year for recognizing milestones like the 19th Amendment, then the other 364 days we have left should strive to be as life-changing as Aug. 26.

What’s done is good. But it’s not good enough.

Sound off America is not the center of the universe

Let them eat local

Security breach or security bullshit?

In response to Joe Dusbabek’s well thought-out opinion (“Let’s go local: Campus lacks food diversity”) requesting more local, healthy and diverse food options on campus, I would like to suggest that the university go the extra mile and make at least some organic and locally grown foods available. As an alumna of the UA, I cringe when I see students consuming plate after plate of food without so much as an organically grown salad being offered. To my knowledge, there is only one place on campus where organic foods are offered, and that is the U-Mart, which kindly offers Amy’s (Amy’s Kitchen, Natural, and Organic Foods) organic vegetarian entrees and burritos, organic hummus, pita bread and Organic Fair Trade coffees. Fresh, healthful, pesticide and herbicide-free food choices should be available in campus cuisine, as well as some vegan choices for those that prefer them. In fact, the university should require that all food vendors offer a few of such foods. Local farmers markets offer organically grown food at very low, affordable prices. Buying local is always good, too, and reduces the greenhouse gas emissions caused by trucking food across the country.

As a UA employee, I received the infamous “Goatman” email. While I was disgusted by the content of the email, I understand that mistakes can happen and professionals cannot be prepared for every unexpected outcome. However, what I do not understand is how in the apology email, it was explained that, “by using an offshore server the perpetrator of this act was able to mask his or her identity and pretend to be one of the very few individuals with permission to transmit messages to this listserv.” On the other hand, in your article “Security” it is explained differently that, “the listserv was not moderated, meaning anyone on the listserv could forward anything to everybody.” So I am wondering if the statement in your article is factually incorrect, or if the entire campus employee community was directly lied to by the chief information officer of our university.

In class the other day, we were discussing the war in Libya and a student pointed out how many misspellings she had seen of Col. Moammar Gadhafi’s name, even in prominent news sources such as CNN. I explained that he doesn’t have an English spelling of his name and most news sources use the rules of translating Arabic languages and their individual styles to attempt to give him an easily read name.

She responded, “He should just make an English name.” I’m not sure my eyes could have rolled any more in their sockets.

It’s such an American thing to do. “It’s complicated, so why don’t they just shift everything about themselves to fit English?” I remember a friend complaining that Yao Ming should switch his name to Ming Yao because “that’s how we do it in America.”

Why do other cultures have to change their ways to fit America? In Ireland, if you introduce yourself as John they won’t call you Sean just because that’s the Irish version of the name. The Russian president’s name is Dmitry Medvedev, but it could also be written Demetri Medvedev in an American newspaper and still be right.

I’ll admit that learning the rules of other countries is difficult. But it’s so elitist to demand that everyone fit the English-speaking way and to never expect to learn another. Stop expecting everyone else to do all the work and start respecting cultural differences.

OFFENSIVE

Approximately 10 years ago, Trey Parker and Matt Stone’s “South Park” was the de facto ruler of television comedy.

Through the evolving story of four animated elementary school friends, it broke established rules about what was allowed on TV, pushed cable TV as being the real place to go for cutting-edge content, and taught us how good laughing at inappropriate things can feel.

“South Park” often pulled both the best and worst out of us as human beings, and in the end, it’s kept us coming back for fifteen seasons (and counting). Lately, however, other sitcoms and comedies on TV have pushed “South Park” to the brink of losing its title of the most offensive and hilarious show on TV. In this special feature, the Daily Wildcat explores the newest challengers, an old favorite, and awards the championship to a deserving winner.

LONG-RUNNING CONTENDER “It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia” Offensive and uncomfortable TV doesn’t get much more offensive or uncomfortable than this. A sitcom about four guys and a gal who run a bar in Philadelphia, “It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia” features exceptionally well-crafted situational awkwardness and compellingly funny pseudo-dramatics from the cast.

There are often moments that are so tough to swallow for the average viewer that it becomes difficult not to squirm in your seat, just a little. That’s the type of envelope-pushing that makes this a contender, and if you’re a fan of extremely uncomfortable moments (and if you cried the day “Arrested Development” was canceled), you’re bound to love “It’s Always Sunny.”

The show is easily the elite among shows that force awkward moments down your throat, whether you want to choke on them or not.

NEW COMPETITION “Archer” In terms of animated 20-minute comedies about dysfunctional spy agencies and all sorts of cultural taboo, “Archer” stands alone as the premiere example of how to do it right. Outlandish situations mark “Archer” as spots mark a Dalmatian, and the snappy writing provides the type of moment-to-moment spontaneity most modern television shows severely lack. The quick and witty jokes guarantee you’ll be chortling, often suddenly and out of nowhere, despite your most sincere attempts not to.

There are times when “Archer” almost gets too close to crossing the line; a certain situation involving an amazingly horny underage girl in one episode comes to mind.

It’s impossible to fault “Archer” for this when it does so many things right, and this indeed is its greatest strength: The show does what it wants, when it wants, and it’s not afraid to do it. For some, that sounds like a sick kind of paradise, and if that’s you, “Archer” will please you in ways you’re ashamed to like.

THE REIGNING CHAMPION “South Park” Fifteen seasons, a musical feature-length film, putting Comedy Central permanently on the map, viewers consistently averaging in the millions, winning a place in Time’s “100 Best TV Shows of All Time” list and being nominated for the Emmy Award for Outstanding Animated Program 11 times (and winning four). It’s all in a day’s work for Trey Parker and Matt Stone’s divisive program.

Famous for its smart satire, clever structure, gross-out humor, and outright rude language, “South Park” has been at the top of the comedy charts forever, and with good reason: You don’t get that kind of following for that long without fully deserving it. Consistently one of the best shows around, “South Park” created the template for modern TV sitcoms in various different ways, and without it, it’s almost a certainty TV wouldn’t be the same today.

WINNER: “SOUTH PARK”

Without “South Park,” there’s frankly no reason for this argument to even exist at all, and no amount of controversy changes that fact.

While shows like “Archer” and “It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia” do their best to contribute and create compelling TV their own way (and, it deserves mention, stand up absolutely fine on their own), “South Park” doesn’t look to run out of steam until Parker and Stone say it’s all over.

‘Colombiana’ makes ‘Calm Yourself’ vengeance beautiful with these tracks CAT TUNES

By Christy Delehanty DAILY WILDCAT

It’s the typical chase scene: There are big guns and cleverlystashed smaller ones. There are rooftops to fly off, awnings to jump through, and line-drying pieces of innocent laundry to disturb. The brilliant hues of Columbian capital Bogotá shine on, enveloped in silence.

Everything seems in order until you remember that the object of pursuit is a freakishly coolheaded little girl complete with Peter Pan collar and pinafore.

Young Cataleya is named for the genus of the delicate orchid native to her hometown; but she seems to have been born ready for the rough and tumble her life has brought her. She had to watch the coldblooded slaughter of her parents, flee the city she’s always known on foot with various motorized vehicles in hot pursuit, and gather up her bloodied hair into a balletworthy topknot before venturing forth through Miami to find her uncle in Chicago.

It doesn’t take long for her to reveal her newfound career path to her tío: “I used to want to be like Xena — a warrior princess … (now) I want to be a killer.”

Needless to say, it’s more than the convenient Spanglish that provokes disbelief in the viewer in “Colombiana,” which opened Aug. 26.

Remember, you’ve just tumbled with an impossibly tough child through everything from CIA custody to public transit and all the while been treated to a series of lushly textured landscapes spliced with striking sophistication.

Keep watching, because into

the film here totters its most attractive inhabitant: a headturning, slutted-up Zoe Saldana as a whole new Cataleya, all grown up and ready for action.

Now, if watching an incarcerated Saldana adeptly wrangle a hairpin from the depths of her mane and spring herself from her cell isn’t sexy enough for you, don’t worry.

How about a good shot of Saldana’s upper assets through a shiny, spandex unitard?

In fact, some of Saldana’s best features are visible as she eats Chinese takeout with her fingers, enjoys a lollipop, and cleans her gun. They, along with the semi-sexist SWAT team dialogue, don’t let you forget that you’re watching a woman in a typically male occupation — assassin.

So, the sexualization is extreme and the dialogue is shoddy at best, serving in several instances as cheap connective tissue to bind a fast-paced yet flailing plot. But the cinematography is sensual and up-to-date, and Saldana and her co-stars are — it must be admitted — simply captivating.

After all, when the time is right to slide down an elevator shaft, why not be as cottonhugged and tousled as a Gap Body model? Even Saldana in snow gear wouldn’t answer the lingering questions about the morality of vigilante justice, the psychological ramifications of violent crime, or even those as basic as how exactly killing bad guys pays the bills.

So she might as well wear undies while doing it.

Get into the easygoing flow of things in your second week back to campus by adding three appropriately relaxing songs to your newest iTunes playlist.

PHOTO COURTESY OF BILLBOARD.COM

1. “Calm, Calm, Calm Yourself,”

by Anchor & Braille, brings childhood nostalgia into the forefront by mixing light piano melodies with lead singer Stephen Christian (whom you might also know as Anberlin’s frontman) singing gently over the top in a perfectly calming falsetto. The song emphasizes a distinctly lullaby-like sound, and it’s easy to rank it as a perfect song for listening to while taking a leisurely afternoon nap.

The strangely adult-oriented lyrical musings of the song only adds to its solid melange of contrasting elements. If you’re feeling stressed

as homework increases this week, give this track a listen.

2. As one of the defining tracks on Bon Iver’s debut album, “Skinny Love” remains one of the most incredible and rich listening experiences currently available.

Justin Vernon, the voice behind the song, wrote all of “For Emma, Forever Ago” while struggling alone with mononucleosis in a northwestern Wisconsin cabin for three months. Well-deserved critical acclaim hit Bon Iver with its release.

With acoustic guitars, delicate voicing and some powerful lyrics thrown in for good measure, you can’t go wrong with this track.

3. In 2007, a man by the name of Dan Wilson released an album named “Free Life” to little media fanfare. Hidden on the album was a song of pure gold, “Breathless.”

Wilson’s strengths as a musician come out during a song runtime that includes poetic ranting such as this gem: “I’m lifting wishes to the stars / the gleaming satellites of time / orbiting circles overhead / to futures when your love is mine.” Powerful stuff, eh? Wilson emphasizes a solid foundation in basic musical theory as all of the different parts of the song blend easily to create a song that’s stronger than the sum of its musical parts.

Wayne’s latest falls short of expectations

By Jason Krell

To point out specifics, its two main problems revolve around, The “F” in “Weezy F. Baby” unfortunately, the two most must be for “falter,” among other important facets of a song: the things, because that’s exactly what lyrics and the music itself. he’s done in delivering us “Tha Sadly, and this was especially Carter IV.” apparent after spending the past The easiest thing to say is that few weeks with Kanye West and it just wasn’t good, no matter Jay-Z’s “Watch the Throne,” the how you look at it. Lil Wayne, for production of the music on “Tha whatever reason, didn’t show Carter IV” was just awful. up on his latest CD, which was Every track had the same released today. tired beats you’ve heard a He’s never been the kind of rap million times before, and some revolutionist Kanye West proves seemed to be exact copies of himself to be, but he had that other beats he’s blown to in quintessential uniqueness to his the past. It sounds like the CD sound that made him undeniably was made on GarageBand, and great. It’s not that he’s lost that while it’s a wonderful program, a either, because in every track he professional record label should appears in, his flow is smooth, he want to spend a bit more and boosts himself up and he does make sure it sounds fresh. that little laugh we all love.

The fact is, Lil Tunechi has DAILY WILDCAT

never written the most creative raps. Sure, he has killer lines, but he hardly ever tells a story with it like the greats did. Tupac, Notorious B.I.G. and Nas come to mind. Of course, no one is like them these days, but at least some other rappers attempt to be.

All Lil Wayne ever does is talk about how much money he has, how much sex he gets, how great Young Money — his record label— is or how he’s such a thug.

That’s fine for one or two tracks on a CD. Everyone does that and it’s what we’ve come to expect out of the rap game.

But 15 tracks out of 18? Three of those were bonus tracks too, so that means almost every song he released was about the same damn thing. By themselves, they’re good fun, but listening

to them one after the other was mind-numbing, and with no new sound to set them apart, it was all but impossible to tell the difference.

There was one song — a bonus track no less — called “Mirror,” where Weezy actually seemed to bare his soul and talk about something that might have mattered, and Bruno Mars gave it that soulful sound to help. But otherwise, everything else was terrible.

In fact, my favorite song on the album was one in which Lil Wayne didn’t say one word.

“Interlude,” the aptly named middle track, was performed

by Tech N9ne, and they killed it. Absolutely slaughtered it, especially since they haven’t been nearly as prominent lately.

They were a wonderful breather between the rest of Wayne’s monotonous music.

“Tha Carter IV” does have a saving grace: The featured artists are great. There’s everyone from T-Pain, Rick Ross, John Legend, Nas and Drake sharing songs with Lil Wayne and for the most part, they provide all the variety.

Without them, it’s hard to imagine what the record would have sounded like.

Weezy needs to come back from this effort on the next one, because this effort was poor. Maybe it’s time to retire “Tha Carter” as an album name, because I’m pretty sure Lil Wayne just killed it … and not in a good way.

POLICE BEAT

By Rebecca Rillos DAILY WILDCAT

Not so well in the stairwell

A University of Arizona Police Department officer went to Arizona-Sonora Residence Hall around midnight on Wednesday in response to an intoxicated student. The man was sitting on the steps of the fourth floor staircase and vomitting repeatedly. The officer noticed the smell of alcohol coming from the man’s mouth and that he also had watery eyes and a lack of balance. His speech was slurred. Paramedics from the Tucson Fire Department treated the man on scene and determined he did not need to be taken to the hospital. The officer helped the man to his room and read him his rights. The man agreed to answer any questions. He told the officer that he had two drinks of hard liquor earlier at an unknown fraternity house on campus. The man was cited with minor in possession of alcohol and was released into the care of his roommate.

If you can’t stand the heat, get out of Arizona

A UAPD officer arrived at Cochise Residence Hall around midnight on Wednesday in response to a report of a woman vomiting in the lobby. The officer met with the woman and her roommate. The woman was vomiting continuously into a bucket and was on the verge of passing out. Tucson Fire Department medics assessed the woman and transported her to University Medical Center for treatment for extreme intoxication. The officer asked the woman’s roommate where they had been and if they had consumed any alcohol. The roommate said they had been at a fraternity party off-campus and she had not been with her friend the whole time. The officer asked her if she had been drinking and she replied, crying, that she had only had one shot of liquor. The officer informed the roommate she was under arrest for drinking underage and she continued to cry. “I just want to go home, I don’t want to be in Arizona anymore,� the roommate said. The officer went to UMC to follow up on the other woman. She was stable and admitted to having five shots of vodka. The woman was cited for minor in possession of alcohol. Both women were referred to the Dean of Students Office.

Bulletin board bullying

A UAPD officer responded to Arizona-Sonora Residence Hall on Wednesday morning after racially inappropriate comments were left on a bulletin board in the hall. The officer met with the resident assistant and community director, who showed him the message. The RA said he had been in class the day before between 11 a.m. and 5 p.m. and had noticed the message when he returned. He removed it and placed it in his room to show to police later. The paper had been placed on the board with the question, “What did you do over the summer?�

The question had been intended for people to write about their summer experience, the RA said. Someone had written, “Killed numerous black people� under the question. The RA, a black man, said he did not find the phrase particularly offensive, nor did he think the message was directed at him. He said he was concerned, however, for the other black residents in the dorm. The community director reviewed camera footage from the hallway and found three possible people involved, but could not tell what they had written. The officer unsuccessfully attempted to contact the individuals at their rooms. The bulletin was placed into property and evidence at UAPD.

Frauds on PCard

A UAPD officer contacted a College of Medicine employee on Wednesday who reported fraudulent purchases had been made earlier in the week to her UA-issued purchasing card. The woman found nine purchases made to the card, totaling $1,043.97. The purchases had been made on Aug. 22 between midnight and 4 p.m. to the charity organization The Oregon Family Seven, Q-Furniture LLC, Member VII Inc., Peoplefinders.com, BergdorfGoodman.com and Verizon Wireless. No representatives from the businesses had any suspect information. The PCard was canceled.

Offensive woes strike Arizona Soccer lets game slip away two minutes into second overtime Kevin Nadakal Daily Wildcat

Three games into the season, the Arizona soccer team has more questions than answers in breaking out of an offensive slump.

“It’s probably the toughest loss that I have had in my time here,” said senior goalkeeper Ashley Jett.

The Wildcats (0-3) lost in a second overtime to South Carolina on Friday “It’s probably night by a score of 1-0 in their first the toughest home game of the loss that I have season. had in my time “I think any- here.” one who saw the — Ashley Jett game and saw how senior much energy and goalkeeper passion we put into the game and, to have a result like this, it’s heartbreaking,” head coach Lisa Oyen said.

The Wildcats had a few chances to score but could not capitalize on their opportunities. In the seventh minute, redshirt junior Renae Cuellar had a oneon-one attack against the goalie but her shot went wide left.

“I had an opportunity that I obviously should have put away,” Cuellar said.

“That’s a big heartbreaker for me.”

Arizona had more than the Gamecocks to contend with, as weather was also an issue. The game was suspended at halftime for about 50 minutes due to a thunderstorm warning.

Oyen and the rest of the coaching staff used to the extra time to tell the team what they wanted fix and the team listened to music in their field house to keep themselves pumped up.

Junior Ariel Boulicault dribbles the ball upfield in Arizona’s 1-0 loss to South Carolina. The Wildcats’ loss on Friday came by way of missed opportunities on shots on goals.

The Wildcats had several chances toward the end of the regulation to put the ball in the back of the net but couldn’t make the most of it.

With under two minutes left in the game, sophomore Jazmin Ponce lined up a free kick, just outside of the penalty box, and her shot clanked off the cross bar.

“It’s extremely frustrating,” Jett said.

“We’ve had, I don’t know how many games now, it’s like an eight-game streak

where we haven’t scored.

“We’ve gotten so close, we’ve gotten to the cross bar, we’ve gotten great headers, we’ve had great looks that go straight to the keeper or way out wide.

I still think one day they are going to fall one day and once they do there’s no stopping us.”

The Wildcats have this week off as they prepare for their Sept. 5 game against BYU in Provo, Utah.

Injury update Junior Kirstyn Magyar left the game in the first half after injuring her leg on a 50/50 ball. Oyen said Magyar was held out of the rest of the game because she did not want to take any unnecessary risks, and added that Magyar should be fine for the next game.

Magyar had her leg wrapped and was on crutches.

Volleyball opens In midst of lockout, season with 2-1 Budinger eyes Europe record in Hawaii

By Mike Schmitz

UA falls to No. 10 Warriors after winning two games

Daily Wildcat

The NBA lockout opened doors for players to stay active while pursuing a passion outside of basketball, and for former UA standout Chase Budinger, that passion is volleyball.

Budinger was the 2006 Mizuno National Player of the Year and dusted off those skills on Aug. 20 and 21 when he teamed up with pro Dane Jensen at the Corona Light Wide Open tournament in Hermosa Beach, Calif.

“It was good exposure and fun playing out there,” Budinger said in an exclusive phone interview with the Daily Wildcat. “I was a little rusty but I was still able to compete against the guys.

“I’m going to try and play as much as I can and get into as many tournaments as I can because it’s great crosstraining and I love playing volleyball.”

Budinger’s said he’s enjoying beach volleyball for the time being, but he could trade that in for a basketball gig in Europe any day now.

He said he’d love to play in Spain or Italy and his agent is doing his best to make it happen.

“I told my agent that I’m very interested in going overseas if it’s a good league, so he’s definitely searching for jobs for me over there,” Budinger said.

Budinger went on to talk more about the lockout, playing with former UA teammate Jordan Hill, and Luke Walton joining Josh Pastner’s staff in Memphis.

On how life’s been during the lockout: “It’s been good. Just working out as if we had a regular season. It’s just tough because we have no idea when the season’s going to start. I wish there wasn’t a lockout and it doesn’t look like anything’s moving along so it’s kind of like just wait and see.”

On the pros and cons of going

overseas: “If I do go, it’s a chance to just play basketball, to practice every day with the team and I think it would be pretty cool to experience a new culture and live the lifestyle over there. The cons are it’s not the NBA,

it’s European ball, it wouldn’t be a typical NBA schedule and wouldn’t be played the same way an NBA game would be.” budinger, 9

Both the Arizona volleyball team and their Sunday night opponents, the No. 10 University of Hawaii Warriors, were undefeated going into the finals last night at the Chevron Wahine Invitational in Honolulu. But in the end, the Wildcats couldn’t overcome the Warriors in their house, losing the match in three games, 12-25, 16-25 and 20-25.

The loss was the first of the year, as the 2-1 Wildcats won its first two games to start the 2011 season.

Despite preseason stereotypes of being a young and relatively short team, the Arizona volleyball team dominated both the Wichita State Shockers and the University of San Francisco Dons at the Chevron Rainbow Wahine Invitational in Honolulu over the weekend.

In the team’s season opener Friday, the Wildcats beat the Shockers in three sets, 25-14, 2521 and 25-20, led by seniors Cursty Jackson, Courtney Karst and Marketa Hanzlova.

Jackson, a middle blocker, and Karst, an outside hitter, combined for 18 kills against Wichita State.

Hanzlova, an outside hitter from the Czech Republic, contributed 12 digs and eight kills.

“It was nice to get a win in the opening match,” head coach Dave Rubio said in a press release. “I thought we played like we have been playing in practice. The upperclassmen really did well for us

today. Hopefully we can play as steadily tomorrow.”

A player who defied the team’s preseason stereotypes was 6-foot1 freshman outside hitter Madison Kingdon. In addition to Kingdon’s 12 kills in her debut as a Wildcat, the freshman made six digs and one block for the team.

“She’s very competitive and has a tremendous skill set as an incoming freshman,” Rubio said before the team left for Hawaii.

Kingdon was just warming up.

Against USF, she hammered 18 kills and got up 13 digs for the Wildcats in their five-game victory (25-20, 20-25, 25-16, 24-26, 15-10) against the Dons. It was Kingdon’s first double-double of the season.

“For her to be able to serve receive and score, those two things are rare to find in someone that young, and at such a high level,” Rubio said. “You can sometimes find someone who scores, but it’s hard to find someone who passes too.”

But the win didn’t come as easily as the day before.

The Dons flew under the radar before the tournament, surprising the team with a more challenging match.

“We gutted the match out tonight,” Rubio said. “We weren’t as smooth as we were the night before, but we happened to play well enough at the end to win the match.”

Karst’s experience took center stage during the match’s final moments.

“Courtney Karst really played well for us at the end,” Rubio said.

“We were really lucky to have her leadership tonight.”

Jackson’s experience also played a crucial role in the team’s win, supplying eight of the team’s 12 total blocks to go along with eight kills.

With battered Vick, Eagles seek line changes Mcclatchy tribune

PHILADELPHIA — He finally made the move.

After seeing Michael Vick battered again Thursday, Andy Reid pushed Todd Herremans, one of his most talented and consistent linemen, to the most critical position on the offensive line, right tackle.

Problem solved?

Not quite.

With rookie Danny Watkins struggling at right guard, rookie Jason Kelce apparently having the inside track to the center job despite evident growing pains, Herremans in a new position, and a new left guard, there are four offensive line slots with question marks hanging over them with two weeks to go until the season opener.

Until now, the Eagles knew they

could count on Herremans and left tackle Jason Peters to provide solid protection on one side of Vick. But as Herremans moves to a position that is more important — but less familiar — even that certainty has been lost.

Moving Herremans might be better than the alternatives at right tackle, but it’s not ideal.

Amid the turbulence, journeyman Evan Mathis has an opportunity and

added responsibility.

Mathis will step in for Herremans at left guard, hoping to solidify the position so that the Eagles don’t improve at one spot and slide at another.

Herremans played at a Pro Bowl level last year. Mathis is with his fourth team in seven NFL seasons after playing for Carolina, Miami, and Cincinnati.

“I wanted to make the most of this

opportunity,” Mathis said.

He’s well aware of his career path.

He has just 22 career starts — a number he knows off the top of his head — 15 of them in 2006, his only year as a full-time starter. He has appeared in one playoff game and now is part of a lineup with Super Bowl aspirations.

On the bigger names going overseas: “I think they’re doing it for the same reasons. They just want to play basketball. If you can’t have an NBA season here, why not go over there?”

On his first two years in the NBA: “I think I’ve done well for my first two years. (Former Houston Rockets) coach (Rick) Adelman gave me an opportunity to play and I think I’ve done a good job so far. My only goal is to improve each year.”

On playing with Jordan Hill: “It’s been great just because we know each other so well and we’re so used to each other. When he got traded to Houston it was an easy fit.”

On how Hill has done: “He’s going to be just fine. He’s a confident player and he’s a great ball player. There’s been games when he’s done great and games where he knows he

could have done a little better.”

On the UA basketball program) “It was fun to watch them in the tournament. I keep up with Arizona basketball. I try to catch as many games as I can. Sean Miller’s doing a great job with the guys over there bringing back Arizona basketball to where it should be as one of the top basketball schools.”

On whether he keeps in touch with former coaches and teammates: “I still talk with coach (Lute) Olson and Josh Pastner and still keep up with Kyle Fogg and Nic Wise. It’s a big family that Arizona has and you definitely keep in touch with everybody.”

On Luke Walton coaching at Memphis: “That’s pretty neat. The running joke right now is it’s like Arizona East at Memphis. All the Arizona coaches and players are coaching over there now. It’s a good chance for Luke to get into coaching. Josh is a great coach and he’s got some really good recruits coming in and (I’m) hoping to see them do big things in the next couple of years.”

Greinke, Brewers shut down Cubs

Mcclatchy tribune

MILWAUKEE — As if the Cubs didn’t have enough trouble hitting the ball, they run into two straight Cy Young Award winners.

The first, the Brewers’ Zack Greinke, shut them down Sunday in a 3-2 victory, the Cubs’ eighth loss in the last nine games.

The second, Tim Lincecum, comes Monday night in San Francisco.

Manager Mike Quade wasn’t around to see much of Sunday’s game. He was ejected in the first inning while trying to keep Aramis Ramirez in the game fol-

“Casey threw the ball well,” Quade said, “but he just couldn’t match Greinke (13-5) pitch-forpitch.”

O’s blank Yanks in twinbill opener

BALTIMORE — Although not a loss that felt like a victory, Sunday afternoon’s 2-0 defeat to the Orioles still produced more of a positive vibe than a negative one for the Yankees.

That was because Bartolo Colon, whose season expiration date seemed very much upon MLB, 11

lowing a called third strike. “(Umpire Bill Miller) didn’t like what I said, so I sat and watched,” Quade said.

It was Quade’s sixth ejection of the season.

The loser was Casey Coleman, who is 0-3 since replacing Carlos Zambrano (disqualified list) in the rotation.

Coleman didn’t pitch poorly, allowing the NL Centralleading Brewers six hits over seven innings. Trouble is, one of the hits was a two-run homer by Corey Hart, who in the last two days had a pair of homers, a triple, double, single and two walks.

feel the Eagles staff struggling to find highlights. “Saw significant action in five games at LG,� reads one line from 2010, when Mathis was with the Bengals. “Played a key role on an offensive line that allowed no sacks over the final three games of the season.�

But Mathis has looked like a good fit in Howard Mudd’s offensive line scheme. Perhaps he has found a match of opportunity and style.

At 6-foot-5 and 302 pounds, Mathis is leaner than most guards — he’s listed 19 pounds lighter than the 6-6 Herremans — but has quickness and can block in the open field. Just as Mudd likes it. “I love Mudd’s style, and any technique that he tells me to do on a given play, I’m out there trying it,� Mathis said. “Nothing’s really awkward. Some of the things I’ve even been trying for the first time, it feels good doing it. He does it because it works.�

With shoulder-length hair and permanent stubble, he resembles a rocker, or, according to some Eagles staffers, professional wrestling’s Undertaker.

He played well against Cleveland Thursday.

While the Eagles, by design, go light at some positions such as linebacker, Reid believes line play is fundamental to winning. But his group hasn’t been right since Jamaal Jackson tore up his knee on Jan. 3, 2010.

With Vick’s blind side at risk, and rookie Watkins struggling at right guard, Reid had to make a change at right tackle.

Herremans — athletic, smart, and hardworking — has been more reliable than Reid’s other options there.

The changes should boost the over-

him in recent weeks, produced the kind of start that had the Yankees earlier in the season thinking he could be a realistic option for Game 2 of a playoff series.

Colon shut out the Orioles for six innings before allowing a run in the seventh and one in the eighth.

He took the loss mostly because the Yankees, who were to meet the Orioles in the second game of the doubleheader Sunday night, failed to score against rookie lefthander Zach Britton and two Orioles relievers.

Kevin Gregg allowed a one-out single to Mark Teixeira, who had three of the Yankees’ five hits, but Alex Rodriguez grounded into a 6-4-3 double play to end it, earning Gregg his 19th save.

Colon came in winless in his previous four starts, having allowed five runs in each of his previous two.

Sunday he allowed two runs and seven hits in 7 2/3 innings, his longest outing since a complete-game shutout May 30 in Oakland. Colon struck out four and did not walk a batter.

Ron Cortes/ Philadelphia Inquirer/ MCT

Eagles quarterback Michael Vick runs for a touchdown in Thursday’s his team’s 2414 victory against the Cleveland Browns in Philadelphia.

all talent on the line, and it’s easy to envision Herremans improving the tackle play, but by how much?

With only five career starts at tackle — four of them in 2005 — will the man who dubbed himself “the illest LG in the game� on Twitter be a Pro Bowl-level tackle? Above average?

Adequate?

How long will it take him to get used to the new spot?

If Kelce opens the season at center, and it seems the Eagles want him to, fans will hope his growing pains don’t hurt Vick, too.

Watkins has been anointed a starter since the Eagles drafted him, and he remains in place despite early woes. Maybe having the veteran Herremans alongside will help the

first-round pick.

If Watkins isn’t ready, though, the Eagles have one less fallback option now that Mathis has joined the starting lineup. “You hear it so many times in football, that the offensive line needs time to jell, but I think all of us out there, we’re all professionals, and you can do a lot of jelling in the meeting room, watching film, and going through the playbook together,� Mathis said. “I think we’re going to pick it up very fast.�

At stake is Vick’s health and any hope for a championship.

There are now four question marks on the line, up from three. And with just one preseason game left, the answers might not start coming until the games count.

White Sox, Danks blank Mariners, 3-0

SEATTLE — The sight of fictitious Larry Bernandez throwing out the ceremonial first pitch gave a pretty good indication this night would belong to pitchers.

And it pretty much did once Seattle Mariners ace Felix Hernandez — dressed as his alter ego from team television commercials — had concluded the pregame festivities Saturday night by tossing a ball to a look-alike fan. Michael Pineda looked as good as he has in quite some time, but Chicago White Sox counterpart John Danks was even better in handing the Mariners a 3-0 loss.

Danks tied his career high with 10 strikeouts while holding the Mariners to just three hits in notching his second career shutout. “You see why he’s had so much success,� said Kyle Seager, who had one of the three Seattle hits. “He’s a tough guy to pick up. He had good stuff and he locates it very well.�

Giants find a way in 10th against Astros

SAN FRANCISCO — This isn’t torture, this is agony. But somehow, the San Francisco Giants are managing to find a way to stay alive despite a seriously vapor-locked offensive attack.

Jeff Keppinger’s two-out single in the bottom of 10th inning after pinch hitter Mark DeRosa had singled and stolen second base with one out allowed the Giants to squeeze out their second straight 2-1 victory over Houston on Saturday night at AT&T Park.

It ended on a positive note what had been mostly a night of offensive frustration for the Giants, who managed just five hits, including a mere two over the first seven innings against Astros starter Brett Myers.

But San Francisco matched Myers’ masterwork with an impressive major league debut from left-handed callup Erik Surkamp, and three relievers — Guillermo Mota, Santiago Casilla and Jeremy Affeldt — held the Astros scoreless for the final four innings until Keppinger’s two-out, two-strike hit over the head of second baseman Jose Altuve brought home DeRosa with the game-winner.

Affeldt (3-2) pitched two-thirds of an inning for the win, and Fernando Rodriguez (2-3), who entered in the ninth, took the loss.

Surkamp gave the Giants as much as they could have asked. Even though he had to dodge trouble throughout his major league debut, he allowed just one run, and that probably shouldn’t have been.

CAMPUS HEALTH

answers to your ques�ons about sex and rela�onships

FOR KEEPS

Campus Health offers confidential testing for STDs. You can bill all medical testing to your Bursar’s account. Your Bursar’s statement protects your privacy and will read: “Student Health Charge”.

Q How do you know if you have an STD? A. Sometimes you do and sometimes you don’t.

Signs or symptoms that may indicate a problem include: pain, itching, painful sores, redness, unusual discharge, rash, painless lesions, unusual/ foul odor, bumps, painful urination, swelling, unusual bleeding, blisters, sore throat If you notice any changes in your body, get checked out by a medical professional who

can give you a thorough exam and order appropriate lab tests.

On the other hand, many STDs have no symptoms at all. Most women with chlamydia (and about half of men) do not experience any noticeable symptoms. Gonorrhea, herpes, HIV, and human papilloma virus (HPV) may show a wide range of symptoms (from mild to moderate to severe). The only way to find out for sure if you have an STD is to get tested.

Q What’s the difference between STDs and STIs? A. As times change, so do names. Since around the 1980’s, diseases spread through sexual contact have commonly been referred to as “sexually transmitted diseases”– STDs for short. Going back further, college students of your grandparents’ age called sexual infections “venereal diseases” or VD. In recent years, however, many public health experts have suggested replacing STD with a newer term – sexually transmitted infection, or STI. Why? The concept of “disease,” as in STD, implies a clear medical problem, usually some obvious signs or symptoms. But in truth

several of the most common STDs have no signs or symptoms in the majority of persons infected. Or they have mild signs and symptoms that can be easily overlooked. The sexually transmitted virus or bacteria can be described as creating “infection,” which may or may not result in “disease.” This is true of chlamydia, gonorrhea, herpes, and human papillomavirus (HPV), to name a few.

For this reason, in some of the published literature, the term “disease” is being replaced by “infection” (The American Social Health Association, 2011).

worth noting

Volunteer clown clubs look for younger generation Mcclatchy tribune

MINNEAPOLIS – The transformation from Frank Mitchell of Cottage Grove to Knufie of the St. Paul Clown Club takes about an hour, starting with precise application of face paint, followed by a colorful and comically oversized outfit, topped with a yellow bowler hat that’s much too small.

The wacky ensemble, on top of a sunny disposition, belies a challenge that’s anything but funny for Mitchell, 77, and other volunteer clowns around the metro area: They are getting old.

Young members are scarce and shrinking membership has meant the St. Paul, Minn., troupe is doing fewer outings, including cutting back on their once-regular visits to nursing homes and hospitals.

“We only go when one of us is in there,”

joked Denise Chapeau, aka Sassie.

Blame scary clown movies, busy family schedules or lack of civic spirit. But clown clubs, like other classic community clubs such as the Lions or American Legion, wonder what the future holds as their enthusiastic members grow gray.

“As age creeps in, it gets a little more difficult to do the parades and stuff,” Mitchell said. “The clubs are dwindling, which is kind of sad, I think. We’re trying to attract younger people.”

As the St. Paul Clown Club traversed the New Brighton Stockyard Days Parade route, taking turns hopping off a pickup truck decorated with balloon animals to entertain the crowds, there were waves and smiles aplenty.

“It’s been a part of history,” spectator Karen Carlson said. “Without them, it

wouldn’t be coming to a parade.”

The clubs’ origins are intertwined with the metro area’s largest festivals. Both the St. Paul Clown Club and the Minneapolis Aqua Jesters were formed by community leaders to bring laughter and boost interest in the cities’ marquee festivals, the Winter Carnival and the Aquatennial, after World War II. The Powder Puffs, a women’s troupe, was formed later as a sister group to the then-all-male St. Paul club.

The clubs once counted 50 to 100 active members, a number that’s now more like a couple dozen per troupe. They teach each other the tricks of the trade, face painting, balloon animals and magic tricks, and seek opportunities to cavort at hospitals, nursing homes and charity events and in shows at libraries or community centers.

Gender issues and cheesy gummy bears Have any wacky sociology classes this semester?

I do have the Sociology of Terrorism. We’re reading this book — well, it’s my professor’s book — and it’s a collection of journals by a person who was someone involved in the attack (9/11).

Offbeat

The cups runneth over

Jennifer Sevillano Sociology junior

Interesting. Is that the only weird class you’ve got?

It’s more like interesting. I’m in sociology of gender. It’s all about how we determine our gender and our gender ideas.

So that gender is different than sex and all that — Exactly. I’m taking those classes, and I was going to do a criminal justice minor but the UA isn’t offering that anymore so I’m thinking of leaning toward doing a psychology minor to go along with Spanish.

Just in case you had any extra free time you needed to kill?

Yeah, plus I work at Core, so …

And people order the craziest things. Gummy bears and ranch on a salad. I’ve seen it happen. What’s the weirdest thing you’ve made there?

Someone once had me put gummy bears and cheese and steam it over brown rice. It looked like a rainbow when it was all done.

But I just don’t ask sometimes, I just make the salads with a smile — most of the time.
