Campus Health short on flu shots RACHEL MCCLUSKEY Arizona Daily Wildcat

A rising number of flu cases have depleted the supply of flu vaccinations on the UA campus, but some community members are not concerned.

According to Lisette LeCorgne, a nurse practictioner and coordinator for urgent care at Campus Health Service, Campus Health no longer has flu shots available to students, after running out Jan. 11. She said she wasn’t sure when more shots would be available again.

Arizona has had about 1,300 cases of the flu, and Tucson has had between 200 and 300 as of Friday, according to Sean Elliott, the medical director of infection prevention at the University Medical Center. However, Arizona is not currently facing a flu epidemic, he added.

The number of flu cases reported by Campus Health has been increasing since Christmas, LeCorgne said.

“We’ve had probably at least a dozen positives,” LeCorgne said.

“But we are seeing dozens more than that. We are starting to see that

Research delayed by state restrictions on campus RACHEL MCCLUSKEY Arizona Daily Wildcat

The UA recently declared its support of amending a state statute to clarify that marijuana research may be conducted at the university, with the proper federal authorization.

The support, given in a UA statement, comes as a result of delays in a UA study intended to determine if marijuana will benefit veterans with post traumatic stress disorder.

Currently, Arizona state law states that marijuana research may not be performed on state campuses.

The study, run by Sue Sisley, a physician at the UA College of Medicine’s downtown Phoenix campus, is still waiting for the approval of two organizations. The UA Institutional Review Board and the Food and Drug Administration have approved the study, however, the National Institute on Drug Abuse and the Drug Enforcement Administration have not.

In the study, 50 veterans would be placed into five groups and given various dosages of marijuana, explained Sisley, who will conduct the study if it is approved. Once in those five groups, the subjects would be sorted again into either a smoking group or vaporization group to determine the method of administration. An alcohol-based plant without the THC would be used for a placebo as well.

The study would run for more than eight weeks with a year-long follow-up with the subjects.

The biggest obstacle of the study is the at-home selfadministration, Sisley said, as NIDA feels it is unsafe to allow subjects to smoke at home. She said that NIDA would prefer to have subjects placed in an in-patient hospital.

“Most of these people want to be functional. They don’t want to be high,” Sisley said. “That’s what is so frustrating.

We want to create a real-world study; it’s not real-world to live in a hospital for 10 weeks. That’s absurd.”

The study is the first of its kind to be administered, according to Sisley.

“It’s really crucial that we collect high quality data rather than anecdotal experience,” Sisley said. “That’s what we have now; we have literally thousands of vets that are telling us that cannabis is the only thing that helps control their PTSD symptoms.”

Currently only Zoloft and Paxil are available to treat symptoms. Sisley suggested that the notion of using cannabis to control symptoms could provide relief and renewed hope for people who have never had any.

Ricardo Pereyda, a public management and policy senior, is a student veteran who served in the United States Army Military Police Corps from 2003-2009 and was mainly deployed in Baghdad. PTSD is a prominent problem among veterans, according to Pereyda, who said he has first-hand experience.

According to Pereyda, he was 23 when he came back from deployment and was on 12 different medications at one point.

“I think that rather than trying to just throw pills at veterans, where all the side-effects may not be known, or just try to make them numb is not the right course of action,” Pereyda said. “If using marijuana responsibly will help alleviate some of those symptoms so that individuals can enter a classroom, or go to a supermarket, and not get a panic attack as soon as they open the door, [it] is a good thing.”

Sisley said NIDA believes that subjects will take the marijuana home and sell it on the street but that her team has created preventative measures to ensure this doesn’t happen.

Sisley began outlining the study design and working with the FDA in early 2010 and approval occurred in early 2011. The FDA has a 30-day required timetable to approve or deny a study, but according to Sisley, NIDA doesn’t have such a restriction. She explained that she has been waiting on a decision regarding a separate study from the organization for seven to eight years.

“They can take 10 months or 10 years and that’s what they’ve proven,” Sisley said. “That’s their tactic: to delay and stonewall and simply say it’s under review. They don’t say that it’s under a permanent review.”

Despite her frustrations, Sisley said she is happy the UA’s Institutional Review Board accepted the study.

“I’m really proud of the U of A for having the courage to defend good science,” Sisley said. “Our IRB at the U of A looked and examined the science; they did their job, which is protecting human subjects. They didn’t allow politics to enter into it.”

Landowners and developers, city council members and other Tucson community members attended a design charrette to voice their concerns and make suggestions about development along the streetcar route, which runs through the UA campus, at the Rialto Theatre on Monday night.

The meeting was the first of several this week where community members can give their input on the route’s design.

The county, city and Regional Transportation Authority intends to use the community’s input to properly create density along the route while still preserving historic neighborhoods and catering to people’s needs.

“We’ve got some very sensitive areas to get through and we can’t do that like a bull in a china shop,” said Corky Poster, architect and planner for Poster Frost Mirto.

“We need to do that in a way that’s thoughtful and careful and listens very, very carefully to what people have to say in those areas.”

Substituting cars in downtown with alternate modes of transportation will ideally increase density without congesting downtown Tucson, according to Poster. In order to cater to the needs of non-drivers, investing in sidewalks and adding bike racks along the corridor is a necessity, Poster said.

“We don’t think there are any solutions that are rule-of-thumb solutions,” Poster added. “We need to take advantage of the transportation mode choices.”

David Heineking, director of UA Parking and Transportation Services, shared data with Poster regarding UA students and employees’ preferred transportation modes. Poster presented the data at Monday’s meeting, which said that 80 percent of UA students and employees who live within one mile of the university, walk, ride a bike or use alternate transportation modes to get to campus.

The meeting also included discussion about what types of retail and housing will be necessary along the route once the streetcar is running. Businesses along the streetcar route should lend themselves to alternate transportation, Poster said.

Facilities, students Community weather cold snap Chatter How have you been staying warm?

Robert alcaraz/arizona Daily Wildcat Freshmen Kyle Jackson, Ayo Odeneye and Julz Jenney huddle in front of Manzanita-Mohave Residence Hall on Jan. 14. With Tucson seeing lower temperatures, UA students have been dressing warmer and Facilities Management has taken measures to protect pipes from freezing.

MAXWELL J. MANGOLD Arizona Daily Wildcat

A recent cold spell sweeping Tucson has UA campus-goers bundling up and compensating for the change in climate.

Tucson’s average overnight January temperature is 38.9 degrees Fahrenheit, according to the National Weather Service, but Monday night’s low was 22 degrees. While some students and staff may simply add a scarf to their daily wardrobe, campus buildings require more maintenance.

After incidents experienced during a February 2011 cold front that produced the second coldest morning in Tucson history on Feb. 3 at 18 degrees, according to Tucson Weather, numerous adjustments have been made around campus.

“The proactive measures facilities took over the last couple of years is paying off in this cool snap we’re having,” said Chris Kopach, assistant vice president of UA Facilities Management.

for the warmer indoors.

However, while some try to avoid the cold, others are enjoying the change in weather.

“I enjoy it,” said Cara Gwinn, a senior studying psychology. “I think we only get about 14 days of it a year. I really hate 100-plus weather, so whenever it’s cold like this, I just remind myself that in six months time it’s going to be really hot and disgusting and enjoy it while it lasts.”

While the cold has caused her to “double down” on drinking coffee, Gwinn added she’s unpacked jackets and sweaters she’d forgotten about.

“During the day it’s really nice. Man, it gets my mind thinking,” said Daniel Rosales,a graduate student studying music. “When the sun comes out it gets a little warm, feels a little nice and it’s cool. So both worlds.”

According to The Weather Channel, overnight lows are expected to stay below freezing until Wednesday, when the temperature is expected to be in the low 60s and increase throughout the week.

In February 2011, facilities experienced “major problems,” but Kopach said the the university is currently “doing well.”

Blankets, fitted similarly to a sleeve, have been placed over pipes located outside of buildings to stop piping from bursting or freezing. Air handling units around campus have been adjusted, which in the past, when unchanged, had frozen, burst and flooded areas, Kopach said.

Similarily, outside of buildings, standing water in fire extinguishers was drained this past weekend to prevent freezing. Furthermore, plants have been covered with tarps to prevent them from dying.

These undertakings, which are done manually, according to Kopach, are measures students can take at home to avoid problems.

Daryn McCluskey, a hot dog cook at Simon’s Stand, located next to the bike valet and Nugent building, said the weather has helped business, but that students are less inclined to use Simon’s outdoor seating, bypassing it

UA students will gain experience and give back at an annual event that aims to help a local non-profit organization.

Each year the UA partners with a different local nonprofit organization and plans an “extreme makeover” day where students, faculty and friends come together to help paint, build, recycle, remodel, refurbish and improve anything the location would otherwise not be able to accomplish. St. Elizabeth’s Health Center has been chosen as the project partner for the 2013 Cats in the Community Day scheduled for March 2.

St. Elizabeth’s is a medical center that provides health and dental care for people without insurance. The majority of its staff consists of volunteer physicians, dentists and nurses who offer basic medical services. The center also offers newborn care, chronic disease management, health education and nutritional services.

“We feel so privileged to be your selected recipient,” said Jane Bakos, executive director at St. Elizabeth’s Health Center. “It will make such a difference for our patients and staff and it is something we wouldn’t be able to do on our own.”

The goal of the day is to give back to the community, educate volunteers on local needs and create a sense of pride within the UA population.

“We give their whole place a face-lift and you get to work with people you want to work with,” said Sheila McGinnis, UA director of outreach and community partnership and head of Cats in the Community Day. The event lasts all day and around 300 volunteers help renovate. Volunteers choose from one of three shifts during the day and are assigned to specific projects pertaining to the needs of the facility. The event provides food and fun activities, alongside the work projects, to ensure that participants enjoy the day and benefit personally from the experience, according to McGinnis.

University professors are also finding creative ways to get their students involved in this annual event in ways

Steve Kozachik, the city’s Ward 6 council member, said retail and development should make sense and be varied.

“We need an eclectic mix of retails so it’s not just a bunch of bars,” Kozachik said.

that help the organizations and give students real-world practice.

Jackson Boelts, a UA art professor, conducts an annual project for his art classes that requires students to design interiors, wall graphics, furniture and flooring for the chosen non-profit organization. Students work on their projects for more than four months and, come March, help the volunteers renovate using their designs.

“Everybody wins in this case,” Boelts said. “All the students win, they’re really excited that day. It’s just a wonderful experience to see the people’s faces, the little kids’ faces or the patients’ faces when they come in and see the facility for the first time.”

University department involvement is based on the needs of the location chosen. In the past, the engineering department volunteered its skills to the community event by creating shape structures and other objects for the specific location.

“It’s just such a rewarding experience,” Boelts said. “I don’t know how the students could ask for a better project.”

Museum of Contemporary Arts and a downtown developer, said she hopes the streetcar helps “bring Tucson into the 21st century” by creating encounters and inspiring new ideas.

“Those encounters don’t happen when you’re in your car,” Dorman said. “And they don’t happen when you don’t have places to gather comfortably together and easy ways to get there.”

Attendees wrote down and shared what they’d like to see and what their biggest concerns are regarding design along the route. Kate Randall, coowner of Antigone Books on Fourth Avenue, requested that the streetcar construction schedule remain consistent and that the streetcar, once it begins operating, run past midnight.

pick up even this week.”

Although Campus Health has run out of supplies, there are other places community members go, such as Walgreens and UAMC. Patrick Jerome, the Walgreens district pharmacy supervisor for Tucson, explained that Walgreens’ goal is to keep the flu shots in stock throughout all of the stores.

“We are keeping it [flu vaccine] in stock and doing our best to continually, on a day-to-day basis, balance the inventory so that we can make sure that we have adequate coverage throughout the whole metro area,” Jerome said. “Occasionally our inventory levels may dip down or they may run out, but as soon as that does happen we are doing our best to make sure that we do reallocate appropriately.”

Studio art sophomore Cassie Popeski said she is seeking her flu shot elsewhere, since she gets one every year. Alanna Felix, a communications senior, said she received hers on the Davis-

Monthan Air Force Base.

Other students said they don’t feel the need to receive a flu vaccine.

“I’ve never had a problem with it,” said Ryan Mammana, a neuroscience freshman. “I have never had the flu. Guess I should knock on wood.”

For those who are concerned, there are a number of things students can do to avoid catching the flu. LeCorgne advises students to stand at least 10 feet away from people who are coughing and to get behind them, not in front of them. Students who are coughing should wear masks and the Campus Health pharmacy sells packs of five for $2.

Hand sanitizer is also beneficial in avoiding getting sick, and after using the bathroom, students should open the door with a paper towel, LeCorgne added.

“Avoid touching your face.”

LeCorgne said. “This is how we transmit these infections. We touch whatever is contaminated and then we touch our faces.”

LeCorgne explained that the flu vaccine takes two weeks to take full effect.

NRG Blends owner juggles UA, work BRITTNY MEJIA Arizona Daily Wildcat

C

hanging schedules, meeting classmates and buying textbooks consume most UA students’ first two weeks of the semester.

Yet, that’s not the case for business sophomore Eddie Prchal.

As a 20-year-old business owner, Prchal’s days begin at 5:30 a.m. and consist of managing a staff of eight, promoting his supplement and smoothie store and planning events.

Prchal decided to take only one class this semester to focus entirely on running NRG Blends.

“Last semester I thought I could do the whole class load and, to be honest, with this much behind everything and this type of place … it’s kind of just too much,” Prchal said.

Prchal opened his business when he was 19, getting NRG Blends up and running in six months. The construction took a month and a half and the design process came together based on what Prchal

thought would look most appealing.

Some of the challenges he dealt with were the recipes, figuring out what to put in the store and putting together an actual business plan.

“It went from a business plan of 10 pages, to returning with 120,” Prchal said. “Every single detail was mapped out, which once we got into the process we realized wasn’t even that much.”

The soft opening of the store, located on Sixth Street, took place mid-October of last year, and the grand opening was Nov. 4, 2012.

Prchal said business has been good since opening, although there was a decline due to students returning home for winter break.

His success thus far has not come easily. Prchal said it took losing everything to realize how much it was all worth.

A little more than three years ago, Prchal lost his mother to cancer and, on the same day, his family lost their home.

“I’ve heard it a million times, but until you actually lose it you don’t understand what it is,” Prchal said.

However, he said his personal struggles helped him gain the motivation to set up a plan and open his store.

“I think I would have been a lot less motivated … I figured out the things I want to do in life,” Prchal said. “If I grew up the same way I was before everything happened, I wouldn’t have been motivated at all.”

Prchal’s family can vouch for how driven he is.

“Eddie is just a really great guy. He’s always motivated to do something new,” said Andrew Prchal, Eddie’s younger brother and a junior at Chaparral High School in Scottsdale. “He just cares so much about everyone around him.”

When thinking about his plans after graduation, Eddie Prchal said he wanted to stick with his current employment, or do something similar.

“You never know what’s going to happen with it. Just stick with it,” Prchal said. “A lot of people say TYLER BESH/ARIZONA DAILY WILDCAT they’re going to do things and never do … you usually have the most fun NRG BLENDS OWNER Eddie Prchal holds up one of his signature concoctions in his promotional polar bear suit. The shop is located on Sixth Street, next to Fair Wheel Bikes. with the things you stick with.”

This G.O.O.D. Music and MMG collaboration, featuring two of the Center, run in the streets and do away with most empty calories in order to prepare your spring biggest rappers from the past few years, is the perfect way to start your workout. Meek and Big Sean jump straight into their verses, giving you little time to wonder, “Why have I never listened to this break body.

3. Suicide Silence, “O.C.D.” Maybe metal isn’t your thing and you’ve always found it too heavy for your tastes or you prefer to understand the lyrics. But when was the last time you found yourself singing along to a song while working out? This cut from Suicide Silence’s The Black Crown may go through tempo changes but is unrelenting nonetheless, and the late Mitch Lucker’s larynx-shredding vocals will push you into overdrive.

4. The Temper Trap, “Fader” While you may know Australian alternative giant The Temper Trap from its once-omnipresent hit “Sweet Disposition,” 2009’s Conditions had the up-tempo gem “Fader” on it as well. While it’s just as saccharine as “Sweet Disposition,” “Fader” benefits from fuzzy guitars and a poppy organ melody played over no-frills drumming for an equally no-nonsense workout track.

5. Bruno Mars, “Locked Out Of Heaven” This song is a blatant rip-off of The Police, but it’s infectious and it’s everywhere at the moment.

Though pint-size Mars delivers candy-coated, R&B-ish crooning, “Locked Out Of Heaven” is a solid tune, from its driving groove to the emphatic “ooh’s” sprinkled throughout. It’s hard to hear this song and not think of Mars’ Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show performance, so let that run through your head as your workout motivation — guys and girls alike.

Pass/ Fail The Daily Wildcat puts the issues to the test. Do they make the grade?

NRA nonsense

Today, Vice President Joe Biden will introduce the White House’s new gun control legislation.

When the NRA isn’t trying to arm infants or trying to make the government seem as oppressive as Big Brother from George Orwell’s “1984,” they’re lobbying in the House and Senate against gun control.

Listen up, guys: It’s no longer the 18th century. No one is trying to take away your guns, they’re just trying to make it so that people can go about their lives feeling safe.

Yes, we need to do something about mental health in this country, but that’s a social change that requires the removal of stigmas surrounding mental health problems. In the meantime, there’s something we can do to make the country safer: create stricter gun control legislation.

Despite the argument that criminals are going to get guns regardless, Japan, a country with extremely strict gun control laws, averages under 20 gun-related deaths a year. After a mass shooting in Dublane, Scotland, in 1996 in which 16 children were killed, Great Britain introduced stricter gun control legislation.

This past year Great Britain had a firearm related death rate of .25, which is much less than the United State’s rate of 10.2.

NRA, for your anti-gun regulation lobby, you get a fail.

Pulse of the Pac Southwestern students weigh in on correlation between autism and pollution, Adderall as a study drug and how politicians can reach out to young voters

We’re melting

According to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, 2012 was the hottest year in the U.S. since we started keeping track in 1895. That means that between now and an era where the country was reconstructing after the Civil War, no year was hotter than the one we just had.

On top of that, United Nations meteorologists reported that 2012 was the ninth hottest year in the 160 years that they have been keeping track.

It’s about time that member sof Congress finally got it drilled into their heads that global warming is a very real and scary thing.

You can say that the temperature of the world fluctuates, and that records are bound to be broken, but it’s time to admit that humans are contributing to the fact that the world is warming at an alarmingly fast pace.

This gets a fail, because if we don’t do something about it soon, we’ll all be fried.

Faculty getting Fulbrights

Five members of the UA faculty receiving Fulbright grants is a pretty big deal. This ties us for second in most faculty members with the prestigious award.

We often complain about how bad our teachers are, but it’s good to know that there are some good ones out there who are being recognized nationally.

It makes us feel better about the fact that we chose to go to a school that is consistently ranked outside of the top 100 in US News and World Report.

For getting top honors, these faculty members get a pass.

The Daily Trojan University of Southern California “Students can help reduce pollution”

The Daily Utah Chronicle University of Utah “ADHD ‘study drugs’ affect academic ethics”

Research conducted by USC and Children’s Hospital Los Angeles scientists released this week — indicating a correlation between autism and exposure to air pollution during pregnancy — demonstrates how dirty air is not just an eyesore, but a veritable public health risk. In light of these findings, USC students should do all they can to reduce pollution in Los Angeles, in the interest of our personal and community health.

The need for urgent action on air pollution stems from general uncertainty about just how dangerous pollution could be for our bodies. The USC-CHLA study is just one example of how the health impact of pollution is more expansive than scientists once thought.

This semester — as is increasingly and perniciously the case — more students are choosing to give up their cup of joe and energy drinks to get their fix from something seeming to be a bit more effective and longlasting: Adderall.

Adderall is prescribed to people who have been diagnosed with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, or ADHD. Across the nation, however, college students are buying, selling and using the little pill illegally in exchange for an edge with their studies.

A pill that helps you to study harder, focus longer and accomplish work you otherwise would not be able to accomplish — miraculous, no? So why wouldn’t one take this miracle drug to enhance his or her studies?

The truth is, Adderall usage is indicative of a larger problem. We live in a nation where the problem for almost anything can be solved with a small capsule. It’s a dangerous drug culture, which ultimately seems to be causing more harm than good in the long run.

The State Press Arizona State University “Arizona’s future gubernatorial candidates need to impress students” Elections were once won by pandering to these older groups with law-and-order style rhetoric and a fierce defense of conservative values.

Such rhetoric can often be alienating for minority groups and certainly will not win over the college-aged students who tend to be more liberal. Even younger conservatives eschew the more hardline stances against immigration or other hot-button wedge issues we inevitably hear about during each election cycle.

The way for these recognized political figures to truly engage the students of Arizona lies in ditching the tired partisanship and embracing the future electorate.

This is not to say that politicians ought to pander to college students. Voter participation by 18-to-29-year-olds tends to be low — even in 2008 when many segments of the electorate were energized by President Barack Obama’s candidacy, only 50 percent of younger voters turned out.

The group formerly known as The Famuan staff was able to develop Ink and Fangs with help from staff members of the University of Georgia’s The Red and Black, who staged a walk-out in August 2012 and launched their own underground publication in response to concerns about student editors’ authority.

These efforts are reminiscent of freethehelmsman.com, a product of the University of Memphis’ Daily Helmsman staff in response last year to funding cuts related to content.

Police Beat MAXWELL J. MANGOLD Arizona Daily Wildcat

Sleeping beauty

A UA student was found passed out in a construction site, with vomit in her hair and on the ground next to her. She was taken to the University Medical Center at 1:24 a.m. on Jan. 10.

A University of Arizona Police Department officer went to the site, located at Second Street and Warren Avenue, after being contacted by a construction zone security guard.

Upon arrival, the employee led the UAPD officer to a muddy, fenced-off area where the woman was lying. She was identified through the contents of her purse, which were strewn about the area.

Emergency responders determined she was extremely intoxicated, but due to her unresponsiveness, police were unable to determine how much alcohol she had consumed.

Tucson Fire Department arrived to evaluate the woman and concluded she needed to be taken to UMC. In a follow up later that morning by UAPD, staff said she was intoxicated and sleeping, but would be released later that day.

All signs point to no one

A non-UA affiliated man was assaulted and threatened by a man he didn’t know in the Student Union Memorial Center at 12:30 p.m. on Jan. 10. The man contacted UAPD at 6 p.m. about the incident.

The man was at the SUMC holding a sign that read “Homo Sex is Sin. He said he had permission to be on campus. While holding the sign, another man approached him from behind and aggressively ripped the sign from his hands, then ran off with it.

The man then chased the assailant and was able to retrieve his sign. The man who’d stolen the sign said he would return, hurt the man and cut up his sign. He had scissors in his hands, which the reporting man believed were to cut the sign but if aggravated enough was afraid may be used as a weapon.

UAPD then looked for cameras or witnesses in the surrounding area that would have caught the altercation but were unable to locate any. The man said he wishes to press charges if the suspect is found.

UA hockey clawing at opposition JAMES KELLEY Arizona Daily Wildcat

B

ack when sports journalism was in its formative stages, sports writers used hyperbole and poetic language to review games. It was during this era that Los Angeles Times reporter Bill Henry wrote about a close UA football loss in 1914. He wrote that “the Arizona men showed the fight of wildcats” and thus UA sports teams found their moniker, following a studentbody vote.

Even though the hockey team has lost four in a row, was swept two weeks in a row, hasn’t beaten a Division I team since mid-November and hasn’t kept a lead since early December, it was impressive Saturday night. The team played like its namesake.

Against a bigger and more experienced Liberty squad, the Wildcats refused to be pushed around or feel sorry for themselves after the string of losses. They literally fought, twice duking it out against the Flames with nearly every player on the ice involved, including a player who left the penalty box to join in.

The Wildcats suffered three painful losses in a row, blowing two-goal leads twice against No. 4 Minot State and a three-goal lead to No. 10 Liberty.

The Wildcats are in the second year of a massive rebuilding project, and rely heavily on head coach Sean Hogan’s first recruiting class. This is the first time in years they have played such a difficult schedule, so in reality, blowing leads like that is almost to be expected.

Arizona uses a lot of young players and is used to playing teams like Texas Tech and San Diego State, not teams from the East stocked with talented Canadian players who can quickly capitalize on mistakes.

On top of that, it looked like the Wildcats had come back Friday night, only to have a goal, with one second left, waved off.

“I don’t know, I could have sworn I put it in,” senior forward Brian Slugocki said Friday night. “I think [the Liberty goalie] knocked the net off as it was going in and [junior forward] Ansel [Ivens-Anderson] was saying that it didn’t hit the back of the net. But it definitely did trickle over. It’s tough to try and win a game on the last

play of the game.”

Unlike the Colorado men’s basketball team, who blew a double-digit lead against the Wildcats and then had a controversial call reverse a last-second shot, the Wildcats didn’t let a controversial call get to them.

After losing to Arizona, Colorado head coach Tad Boyle complained about the call and suggested the NCAA get rid of instant replay.

Hogan didn’t suggest something ridiculous like getting rid of goal judges; he didn’t even broach the subject until he was asked about it. Then Hogan asked the reporters if they thought it went in with the same conversational tone he wondered about the Arizona/ Colorado game.

To be fair to the Buffs though, that’s a pretty common reaction. The high of winning is suddenly replaced by a

ANALYSIS

shock loss and it can easily damage a team’s psyche.

That’s what makes the hockey team’s reaction Saturday so impressive. After blowing leads like that and then going behind 3-1 early, it would be natural to roll over.

Slugocki responded with a hat trick and when asked about battling back he said: “You have to do it, there’s nothing really to say about it. You just have to do it.”

The Wildcats lost Saturday night, 7-5 (including an empty net goal), but it sounded like they couldn’t wait for their next highly ranked foes this week and a chance to show that scrappiness again.

The battle for Pac-12 superiority heats up

1. No. 24 UCLA (14-3, 4-0 Pac12) Previous Rank: 3

enough to save his job. Freshman Jahii Carson proved he was worth the wait, but it’s not quite time to anoint him as the conference’s top guard.

Washington’s perfect conference start (3-0) appears to stem more from a favorable slate of games than the Huskies turning a corner. Still, all three wins came on the road and it’s a different Huskies team from the one that lost to Albany in the second game of the season. It’s not as talented of a Washington team as head coach Lorenzo Romar typically has, but at the very least, the Huskies are turning into a dangerous opponent.

In the long run, though, the Pac12 hunt should turn back into a twoteam race. Oregon is definitely good, and so is Colorado, but the conference is much deeper this year and the Ducks should stubble enough to fall into third. Unless the Buffs’ controversial loss in Tucson was a season-ruining moment and the wheels continue to fall off, Colorado should still slide comfortably into fourth place.

After two weeks of conference play, there is little doubt that Arizona and UCLA are the two most talented teams in the conference. But at least for the sake of competitiveness, it appears that the conference race should be much closer than it looked a month ago.

Week 3: vs. Arizona State Last Week: L 70-66 at Ore.; W 80-70 at OSU

KYLE JOHNSON Arizona Daily Wildcat

Arizona’s fall from the unbeatens seemed like a foregone conclusion with so many close wins in a row. But after Oregon bested the Wildcats, two new teams rose to the top and, at this point in the season, are favorites for the Pac-12.

Sure, Arizona still has the best overall resume and most potential, as shown by its falling just three spots to No. 7 in the latest AP poll. Both No. 24 UCLA and No. 21 Oregon have more favorable schedules to finish off the season though, and with the way the Bruins are rolling, they now sit in the driver’s seat.

It feels like so long ago when UCLA lost to lowly Cal Poly in Pauley Pavilion. It didn’t get much better as San Diego State comfortably defeated the Bruins in Anaheim, causing them to fall to 5-3. The seat of head coach Ben Howland was burning and, coupled with the transfers of Joshua Smith and Tyler Lamb, things were headed toward disaster in Los Angeles. That’s no longer the case.

UCLA is back into the rankings thanks to a nine-game winning streak.

Freshman Shabazz Muhammad appears to be the real deal and the home and away meetings with Arizona should decide the conference.

Before that game, though, another Pac-12 contender will have a say in the title fight — Oregon.

The Ducks lack the big names

of UCLA and UA; they even lack a clear leader on their team. Freshman Damyean Dotson leads the Ducks with 11.8 points per game, but right behind him are four players who average 10.1 to 10.9 points per game.

The balanced scoring and frantic pace of Oregon kept the Wildcats on their heels in Eugene, resulting in 14 turnovers and several ugly possessions. In between Arizona’s 11-0 and 11-3 runs to start and finish the game, Oregon outscored the then-No. 4 team in the nation 67-44. Head coach Dana Altman’s team is for real.

The Ducks also have the benefit of a friendly schedule — they’re all done with the Arizona schools and only play UCLA and USC this week.

Yes, the game is in Pauley Pavilion and UCLA should be the favorite. But if Oregon manages to pull it out, it’ll have the tiebreaker over both preseason favorites.

Three other teams — ASU, Washington and Colorado — are still in the conference mix, but none of them are likely to make a real push.

While Colorado has the talent to contend, the late game collapse against Arizona has knocked the Buffs off their game. Arizona dropped its next game to the Sun Devils and then fell at home to UCLA during the weekend.

ASU has been the biggest surprise in the Pac-12 this season, but it has a true measuring stick game Saturday against the Wildcats. With that said, though, a seemingly lame duck coach in Herb Sendek has done more than

Softball transfer follows in sister’s footsteps JAMES KELLEY Arizona Daily Wildcat

After pursuing her own path at UCLA, Kellie Fox has chosen to follow in her sister’s footsteps by attending the UA. Fox, the newest Arizona softball player, transferred to the UA this month after two years at UCLA. The 2011 All-Pac-10 selection will replace Shelby Pendley after the All-Pac-12 shortstop left the team right before her sophomore season.

“It was just not the right fit for me and ultimately I just wanted to follow in my sister’s footsteps,” Fox said. “She had an amazing experience here and I just want to have the same experience she did, so I’m excited for the change.”

In 2012, Fox started all 56 games for the Bruins and was second on the team in steals. Fox will redshirt this year and start playing for Arizona in 2014.

“Kellie comes to us as a good player,” head coach Mike Candrea said. “She had an outstanding freshman year at UCLA, numbers went down a little bit her sophomore year, but I know who she is and where she comes from and she’ll be a very competitive player that will add a lot to this program.”

Fox is the younger sister of former Arizona star Kristie Fox . In June, Kristie was named head coach at the University of Texas at Arlington.

At Arizona, Kristie set the Women’s College World Series record for hits and won the national championship in 2006 and 2007, while playing with current Arizona assistant coach Alicia Hollowell and current director of operations Caitlin Lowe.

Fox said she considered Arlington, but found the lure of the Pac-12 too tempting. “[University of Texas at Arlington] is one of my other options,” Fox said, “but I kind of

Former UA coach fired as USC head ZACK ROSENBLATT Arizona Daily Wildcat

Kevin O’Neill, the former Arizona basketball assistant and interim head coach, was relieved of his duties as head coach of USC on Monday.

While USC athletic director Pat Haden searches for O’Neill’s replacement, longtime Trojans assistant Bob Cantu will serve as the interim head coach.

“I would like to thank Kevin O’Neill for his four years of service to USC,” Haden said in a press release. “He took over a program under difficult circumstances because of our NCAA issues and despite that, he was able to do some good things.

“It was hard for me to evaluate him as a head coach until this year, when he had enough players and veterans to compete. As the season progressed, it became evident to me that we needed new leadership in our men’s basketball program. Despite a nice road win in our last game, I felt it was best to make a change now, with most of the Pac-12 season still ahead of us, in order to re-energize our team.”

In three and a half years at USC, O’Neill had a 48-65 overall record,

USC HEAD COACH Kevin O’Neill was at one time a UA assisntat and interim head coach.

including 21-37 in Pac-12 play. The Trojans are 7-10 this season and 2-2 in the Pac-12 after suffering through a 6-26 season last year.

“I enjoyed my four years at USC,” O’Neill said. “It is a special place. I enjoyed the people I worked with, the players I coached and our fans. I thank USC for allowing me to guide their program. I couldn’t be more proud to work anywhere. I would encourage all of our recruits to honor their commitment to USC and help

build the Trojan program in the right direction.”

O’Neill was an assistant coach at Arizona from 1986-1989 and was brought back in 2007 after head coaching stints at Marquette, Tennessee and Northwestern, along with NBA jobs as the assistant coach with the New York Knicks, Detroit Pistons and Indiana Pacers. He was the Toronto Raptors head coach for one year in 2003.

Early in the 2007 season, former UA head coach Lute Olson took a leave of absence for the duration of the season and O’Neill was chosen as the head coach in the interim.

He led the Wildcats, with a lineup featuring the likes of Jerryd Bayless, Chase Budinger and Jordan Hill, to a 19-15 record and an NCAA tournament berth.

He was announced as the successor to Olson by former athletic director Jim Livengood, with the expectation Olson would soon retire.

But after Olson returned, O’Neill left to be an assistant at Memphis for a year before being hired by USC in 2009.

Arizona will face USC at McKale Center on Jan. 26.

SOFTBALL from page 6

wanted to keep it in the Pac-12 because it was an awesome opportunity. I just had to go for it.”

In 2011, Fox was named to the All-Pac-10 First Team and the All-Freshman Team. She started all 55 games and was second on the team in home runs, second in RBIs and third in batting average.

Candrea said Fox is the first UCLA player to transfer to Arizona or vice versa.

“Unfortunately in this day and age you maybe see more of that for one reason or another, but yes, it’s kind of an unusual thing,” Candrea said.

UCLA and Arizona have met in the championship round eight times, most recently in 2010. The Bruins have 11 NCAA championships and Arizona has eight.

“It’s definitely weird,” Fox said. “Since I’m redshirting this year — because I had an injury, I had a surgery — ­ I’m hoping to get the feel of things, the hang of things. I have a little bit of time to get things under my belt.”

Candrea said that with the parity in college softball now, the UA is rivals with pretty much every Pac-12 team, but UCLA has always been a strong rival.

“Our rivalry goes back, back into the years when we kinda dominated, them or us, and they’re a quality team all the time and we look forward to the competition,” Candrea said. “I think that’s a health thing for our sport.”

Fox will replace Pendley starting next season. Last year, as a freshman, Pendley was Arizona’s only All-Pac-12 first team selection, leading the team with 19 home runs, two shy of the UA freshman record set by senior third baseman Brigette Del Ponte in 2010.

Pendley started all 57 games at shortstop. She was one of three Wildcats to start every game.

Pendley led the team in slugging (.703) and home runs and was second in batting average (.331), total bases (121) and runs (39).

Del Ponte, who usually plays third base, is expected to replace Pendley at shortstop this season.

Cyclist Lance Armstrong will reportedly confess to doping in interview with Oprah MCCLATCHY TRIBUNE

Lance Armstrong goes on trial this week.

And Oprah Winfrey will serve as judge, jury and either executioner or absolver.

It’s no surprise that a talkshow host becomes the arbiter in whether the public ultimately forgives or foregoes the disgraced former cycling champion.

In this era of microwaveable celebrity in which a beauty queen becomes an overnight sensation solely because a football broadcaster breaks the news to a national audience that she’s, you know, beautiful, it’s only natural that Armstrong seeks the benediction of the country’s communicator-in-chief.

If Oprah cuts you slack, then it’s only a matter of time before everybody else follows.

It’s not an attempt at journalism.

This is public relations.

Armstrong made the smart move, agreeing to a 90-minute taped interview with Oprah, which will air on her OWN cable network Thursday. It no doubt will be well watched.

Late Friday, USA Today reported Armstrong will admit he cheated.

The U.S. Doping Agency produced damning evidence in October linking Armstrong to using banned substances and receiving illegal blood transfusions.

The agency stripped Armstrong of his seven Tour de France titles and hit him with a lifetime ban from cycling competition.

The far-reaching story emerging from any Armstrong confession will be the decimation of any alleged sports doper’s alibi that he never failed a drug test, so he must be clean.

That Armstrong could perpetrate a fraud of this magnitude for as long as did—considering all the attention and suspicions following him—reaffirms that the ever-advancing technology in helping athletes hide their illgotten enhancements makes it impossible to believe any clean drug test.

For instance, Armstrong’s confession doesn’t help baseball work its way out of its steroids history. And why should anybody ever believe an athlete again if Armstrong lied?

That’s what the Oprah interview should be about; instead it’ll probably be an attempt at painting Armstrong as a repentant sinner.

I’m sure he’ll tear up on cue expressing his regrets for letting down those who saw his life story— from testicular cancer survivor to cycling’s grand champion—as an inspiring tale of unrelenting will.

And if the camera catches Oprah in one of her famous “We feel your pain, honey” facial expressions, millions watching will sympathetically sigh and the public-relations ploy will succeed in portraying him as someone seeking the road to salvation.

Don’t forget that this is less about Armstrong making amends but rehabilitating a tainted image that cost him his cycling titles and his connection to his cancer awareness foundation.

He found the right forum. Tiger Woods’ first move after his sex scandal three years ago should’ve been arranging a seat next to Oprah.

She has become this generation’s Walter Cronkite, capable of massively shifting public sentiment.

The influential weight of such iconic figures remains as strong almost five decades later. It’s what’s being influenced today that leaves much to be desired.

Q What is the UA’s rank among party schools in the nation?

A . in this particular category. While you can find the party scene at any college or university, some schools carry that reputation more Unlike our basketball team, the UA is currently “unranked”

than others. Enter the Playboy and Princeton Review rankings, whose annual lists generate a lot of press, a lot of attention, and probably a lot more heat than light.

With 40,000 students, plenty of sunshine and no shortage of pool parties, you might think UA would have a fast-track in this area. It turns out, however, that the UA has not made either list since 2009 (Playboy has a Top 10 list and the Princeton Review ranks the Top 20).

It’s no secret that UA has world class academics in disciplines as diverse as entrepreneurship, astronomy, optical sciences, anthropology, and nursing. Anyone who has made the Dean’s List can attest to the fact that it’s hard to succeed in the classroom without balancing your social life as well. Overall, the UA is around the national average for several key measures of student alcohol use. Ongoing trends from the annual Health & Wellness Survey support the fact that UA students are drinking less and drinking smarter than they were 5 or 10 years ago... and many aren’t drinking at all. Here are some examples: • The average number of drinks that students reported consuming in a week has decreased steadily from 7.6 in 2002 to 4.5 in 2012.

• More students are setting a limit on the number of drinks they’ll have, alternating with non-alcoholic drinks, eating food, and having a designated driver to ensure a fun (and safe) night out.

• The percent of students who reported NOT having alcohol during the past 30 days has increased from 23% in 2002 to 37% in 2012.

Party school lists will predictably be debated, hailed, and debunked each year they are released, but here’s something to remember that has nothing to do with the rankings: in the end, your college experience will largely be what you yourself make of it.

New Year + New You: Wednesday, 1/23 on the UA Mall, 10am-2pm. Food, prizes, a photobooth, and lots of friendly UA staff to help you meet your New Year’s resolutions!
