Rec caters to graduate students, staff

By Brittny Mejia DAILY WILDCAT

The Student Recreation Center held a ribbon-cutting ceremony for a newly renovated fitness studio geared toward graduate students and UA faculty and staff members.

In an attempt to attract a wider variety of gym members, the Rec Center has opened Smart Moves Fitness Studio. Along with this space, the Rec is offering new classes, a fitness pass for working professionals and a complementary shuttle service from the Student Union Memorial Center

until Jan. 27.

“We really want to have something for everybody here that’s going to inspire them to move more, learn more about exercise, gain confidence on how to exercise and gain confidence to go into any facility and workout,” said Mark Zakrzewski, associate director of programs for the Rec Center.

A Rec Center employee initially sent out a memo to UA employees asking them what else they wanted the Rec to offer. The responses inspired the Rec Center to add the classes and programs aimed at UA

employees.

There are 25 classes offered per week, between 6 a.m. and 1 p.m., with most classes lasting about 30 minutes each. The short class times allow for UA employees to participate in workout classes before teaching or during their lunch break.

“I think it’s a great opportunity for faculty and staff to come and work out at one of the best facilities in Tucson,” said Lee Ann Hamilton, assistant director of health promotion and preventive services at Campus Health Service. “The staff are caring professionals with years of experience

in fitness, health and wellness.”

The Working Professional Fitness Pass does not require a membership at the Rec Center, which sets it apart from previous passes for UA employees. It costs $79 per semester for non-members of the Rec Center, as opposed to the $100 semester-long membership.

“This is on campus, it’s close, it’s inexpensive and it caters to your schedule,” said Molly Mulligan, Campus Recreation fitness coordinator.

“That was our main goal; what can we do to make it more convenient?”

The pass allows faculty, staff and

graduate students to work out somewhere more private and less crowded than the bigger gym.

“Some of the feedback we’ve heard is that it’s really difficult for some folks who might be a little overweight, or perhaps faculty and staff who don’t want to work out in the big gym,” said Lynn Zwaagstra, director of Campus Recreation. “Some people wanted a more private space to help them get introduced to fitness and exercise.”

However, this does not mean students cannot work out in the studio

Student, alum electrify cycling

By Kyle Mittan DAILY WILDCAT

What began as a school project for two UA classmates spun into a career in striving to be at the forefront of the electric bicycle market.

Together, UA senior Taylor Hedberg and alumnus JohnMark Bantock formed Velocis Bikes. Hedberg is a triple-major in entrepreneurship, management information systems and operations management while Bantock graduated from the Eller College of Management in May 2011. The company grew out of the project ROBERT ALCARAZ / DAILY WILDCAT for the McGuire Center for Entre- Velocis Bikes was founded by UA senior preneurship’s end of the year Taylor Hedberg. Hedberg is enrolled in competition and showcase, where the Eller College of Management. groups of students work in teams

on a business venture their senior year. At the end of the year, the students present their final projects to a panel of investors.

The team, which originally consisted of Hedberg and Bantock as well as Eller College graduates Lindsey Erlick and Sam Ellis, started with a bike-share program in mind. The program, as the team envisioned, would offer electric bikes to students on campus. During the team’s research, they traveled to Las Vegas in September of 2010 to attend the Interbike International Trade Expo, the country’s largest international bike show.

While there, Hedberg and his business partners discovered that electric bicycles were still a long way off from what they hoped to see.

“When we were there, we couldn’t really find a good bike that was high-quality that also looked good that we thought people would like,” Hedberg said. “So when we were thinking about it, we were like, ‘What if we tried to make that bike?’ and that was our company instead.”

Velocis Bikes is now producing its second generation of bicycles, which are already being marketed directly through the company’s website, as well as through an additional local dealer. Each bike is fully customizable, allowing buyers to choose from three different models based on riding style, 6,500 different frame colors and a number of chain gear-sets, handlebars and

Student hoofs it to national title

hen UA senior Auriel Overall-Isaman started riding horses at the age of 3, she could not predict that she would hold the title of the United States National Champion in Reined Cow Horse.

Majoring in veterinary science and minoring in chemistry, Overall-Isaman took on a heavy load of courses in hopes of continuing onto medical school and practicing human medicine.

“Having that course load and having a professional athletic sport is a challenge, and I have never been given time off from it. It has been very difficult,” Overall-Isaman said.

Because Overall-Isaman is not part of the UA equestrian team, the dean of students office does not grant her dean’s excuses to miss class for competitions. While most of her teachers have been willing to work with her, some have been unable to excuse her from missing class for competitions without a dean’s excuse.

“It (balancing school and riding) definitely has been a challenge that I like to work with,”

Overall-Isaman said.

Her mother, Mary Jane Overall, has been her number one fan. Overall said that she is always present at her daughter’s competitions and supports her through everything Overall-Isaman does.

“It has been difficult for her to get time off. She has to negotiate everything with her teachers, and they have been very cooperative with her,” Overall said.

Often times, Overall-Isaman has to fly out to different states or even countries for competitions, or drive to Scottsdale at 3 a.m. to practice riding before class.

“It’s just a life struggle that you have to work with to survive in both worlds,” she added.

Overall-Isaman just recently came back from Tulsa, Okla., where she competed in the Arabian horse show and took the first place title in Reined Cow Horse competition.

She also placed in the top 10 in Show Hack, a combination of disciplines in which horses specialize in particular maneuvers. There are different sets of maneuvers that you can be given to compete in, she said.

Your heart may sometimes outweigh your brain when it comes to decisionmaking, according to a UA researcher.

At a conference held in India in December of 2011 by the Centre of Behavioural and Cognitive Sciences at the University of Allahabad, scientists from around the world talked about research involving decision-making.

Alan Sanfey, an assistant psychology professor at the UA who is currently on leave to conduct research in the Netherlands, presented his research on social decision-making.

“It was an opportunity to present work to the Indian science community and also to international scientists,” Sanfey said.

According to Sanfey, social decision-making happens when a person takes others into account before deciding what to do.

“The decisions I talked about during the meeting are characterized by the fact that I have to figure out what I want and believe, and also what you want and believe in order to make the best decision,” he said.

Sanfey explained that one of the biggest aspects to social decision-making is the influence of emotions.

“We would argue that emotions always come into play with decisionmaking,” he said. “One of the problems with standard models of decisionmaking is that often they don’t include emotions. Even in financial decisions, where some people think emotions are not typically involved, we use them to guide us poorly or guide us well.”

Club spotlight

Campus club kneels together in prayer

By Kevin Reagan Daily Wildcat

Members of the Cru always manage to find a place to share their faith, despite a constantly shifting Wednesday night meeting location that once led them to meet on the floor of a crowded hallway in the Student Union Memorial Center.

Affiliated with the organization Campus Crusade for Christ International, U.S. chapters like the Cru at the UA are changing the name to make it more inviting to students.

“We were avoiding a word which suggests a holy war,” said DJ Jenkins, the club’s campus director.

So it became known simply as the Cru, opening its doors to both followers and skeptics.

“We really believe in what we’re doing,” Jenkins said. Jenkins first came to the UA five years ago with the ambition to follow Jesus, love people and seek the positive

seats. This, according to Hedberg, is what sets Velocis Bikes apart from other electric bike manufacturers.

Each bike runs on a brushless motor that contains no gears and is attached to the bike’s rear wheel.

Instead, magnets work inside the motor, powered by the lithium-ion battery situated on the frame. Riders can choose from three levels of power to supplement their pedaling, as well as three levels of resistance to provide more of a challenge. The bike’s electric throttle also allows for mobility at the press of a button, without pedaling. On average, a fully charged bike can be ridden for about 40 miles, and the bike’s regenerative braking system charges the battery each time the brake lever is pulled.

Music freshman Ariana Iniguez said most of her decision-making comes from rationalizing.

“There’s some cases where my gut immediately has a feeling and it’s the impulse that I go with,” Iniguez said.

“But most of the time I am thinking about consequences. Like, if I choose to do this, what will be the outcome of it?”

Mia Moa, a biochemistry sophomore, said she is usually aware of how her feelings affect her decision-making.

“You not only have to know yourself very well, but the horse that is under you,” Overall-Isaman said. “You have to know how to command it in such a way that everything is perfected.”

Overall-Isaman’s trainers — Crystal McNutt and Bob Battaglia — are some of the best trainers in the nation, she said. Glow, the horse that she competed with in the Show Hack, and Rhoadie, her other horse, helped her win the championship.

Overall-Isaman recently won the United States National Championship, and she was a twotime reserved national champion before that. She also won multiple world championship and multiple

aspects of the university.

The club has also partnered with Residence Life to create smaller sections of their congregation that are open to students across campus. These smaller sections of the Cru offer a variety of programs that focus on areas such as community building, teaching self-defense, fighting loneliness, and exploring tough questions about the Bible.

“We hope to inspire more questions, and hopefully get some answers,” said Sherilyn Mumme, a junior studying mathematics and biochemistry. Mumme is responsible for organizing discussions, meeting with freshmen and leading prayer meetings for the club.

Mumme, who has been involved with other Christian organizations on campus before, said she appreciates that the Cru enforces accountability among its followers.

“We encourage people to make smarter choices,” said Tim Salefsky,

a physiology junior.

Salefsky said he agrees with Mumme’s assertion that the Cru inspires its members to take part in spiritual discussions, but with the added responsibility of carrying their peaceful message from inside the prayer circle out to campus.

Jenkins said he would like to extend an invitation to all students who are lost, confused, or just a little curious about what the Cru is as all about.

“Here we are,” he said. “We’d love to talk to you.”

The Cru will host an academic and spiritual-based forum next month for students of all beliefs to attend.

Although Ellis and Erlick have since parted with the company, Bantock said he and Hedberg have already met the company’s preliminary goals.

“We wanted to launch regardless of where we were at the end of the program,” Bantock said. “We knew that a lot of the fun would be in going ahead and doing the business.”

As far as future plans go, Hedberg said he would like to see the company expand into other areas of the country after getting established in Tucson.

“We want to expand outward to other cities on the West Coast, and then start moving east, and get our company out there as one of the premier sources of electric bikes,” he said.

Where the UA is concerned, Velocis Bikes is just one of many successes to come from the Eller

College and the McGuire Center for Entrepreneurship, according to the center’s director, Sherry Hoskinson. Since opening in 1983, several thousand students have graduated from the center, many of whom turned their projects into companies, Hoskinson said.

“Our programs are national models that other schools seek to replicate, so it says a lot,” Hoskinson added. “Years ago, few schools had entrepreneurship programs; today, all of them do, and our (the UA’s) reputation is very strong.”

For other entrepreneurs interested in achieving the same success as the founders of Velocis Bikes, Bantock had a few words of advice.

“Jump in with both feet,” he said.

“Don’t be scared of the opportunity that knocks on your door because it will eventually. All you need is one break, and success compounds on itself.”

“You are going on past experiences, so I feel like you already know how you feel about something,” Moa said. “So why not go with how you feel so then you know maybe how something is going to turn out in the end.”

Throughout Sanfey’s research, he has completed numerous experiments in relation to decision-making, including how emotions control rational decision-making and past choices.

“I think with decisions, it is a mixture of a lot of things,” said Ashuntis Dunbar, an undeclared sophomore. “I usually make a pro and con list to see if it will change my mind, but in the end

I go with my intuition.”

Sanfey explained that while rational methods of decision-making are used with bigger decisions, most daily choices are driven by emotions and experiences.

“Most bigger models of decisionmaking are typically made presuming we have a rational mindset towards things, that when we have a complex decision to make we will outweigh the pros and cons,” Sanfey said. “Certainly we can do this, but we don’t tend to make life-changing decisions on a daily basis, but the smaller ones may be influenced by emotions.”

When Mexican cultural historian Carlos Monsiváis and Columbia University professor Gayatri Spivak parted ways in the summer of 2006 at a conference in Philadelphia, the two planned to meet again to lecture together.

That meeting never happened.

Monsiváis, whom the UA gave an honorary doctorate, died in the summer of 2010.

On Thursday, Spivak spoke to a packed auditorium in his honor.

Her lecture was part of a lecture series to commemorate Monsiváis.

The UA’s Confluence: Center for Creative Inquiry sponsored the series with the help of the department of Spanish and Portuguese and the College of Humanities.

“The idea was that Monsiváis and Spivak were going to meet again in Tucson,” said Javier Durán, director of the Confluence: Center for Creative Inquiry. “But unfortunately that could not happen. That is why she is here today, to help give honor and her perspective.”

Spivak, a literary critic and theorist, didn’t just want to offer her perspective during her lecture, called “A Borderless World?” She also wanted to gain some knowledge of her own.

“I have come here to learn,” Spivak said during her lecture when talking about border and cultural issues. “I accepted the invitation because the situation in Arizona is as such that really everyone in the United States have to learn this in detail what is going on.”

During the lecture she talked about a variety of topics, including globalization, capital and the influence of different cultures

space. Campus Rec’s goal is to make everything as inclusive as possible, although some things might be geared more toward a certain group, Zwaagstra added.

So far, 32 people have signed up for the Working Professionals Pass. A lot of faculty and staff have sent positive emails thanking the Rec Center for creating programs directed more toward UA employees, Zakrzewski said.

“I think it also benefits students when faculty and staff lead a healthy lifestyle,” he said. “(Faculty and staff) will be happier and support that more with students and encourage them to be more active.“

regional championship titles, as well as being a three-time Canadian national champion. OverallIsaman has been offered a place at the World of Equestrian Games if she wants to pursue a career in riding.

Somewhere in Overall-Isaman’s busy schedule, between riding horses, winning world championships and studying, she has found time to intern with a surgeon at the UA Cancer Center.

She has done surgery internships at the University of Arizona Medical Center, where she was able to go in on surgeries and in her spare time, she volunteers at a hospice.

“It is a lot to take on for a young person, between riding and her studies,” her mother said. “I tell her to take a break because it can be a stressful process.”

nationally.

“When people feel they are in a culture, they feel that it is human nature, that is the thing,” Spivak said in regards to cultural movements. “It’s not like anthropologist where you study culture. It’s good you should study culture, but when you begin to study culture it is somewhere else running.”

Spivak also commented on her experiences as a professor at Columbia University and her identity as an Indian woman.

“I was told during a costume party someone dressed as Gayatri Spivak,” Spivak said. “When asked how the person dressed, they said combat boots, a sari.”

Biochemistry freshman Ashley Arnold said she attended the lecture as part of a class on MexicanAmerican studies and found it interesting that a majority of what was being discussed in her class was applied in the lecture.

“Right now we are studying borderlands and I came here to get an opinion on the issue,” Arnold said. “It’s interesting learning in this way.”

There will be a seminar today at noon to continue the points brought up in Spivak’s lecture in the Agave Room of the Student Union Memorial Center. Durán anticipates a large turnout and encourages attendees to arrive early.

Monsiváis was an intellectual in Mexican studies. The UA awarded him an honorary doctorate in 2006. The UA was the only university in the nation to give him such an honor and, as a result, he had a good relationship with Tucson and the UA, Durán said.

“I am deeply honored to be asked to speak in the name of Carlos Monsiváis,” Spivak said during her lecture. “He, like me, spoke from both sides of the borders.”

Police Beat Bill aims to implement animal abuser registry

By Elliot P. Hopper Daily Wildcat

Streetlight pole gets run down

University of Arizona Police Department officers responded to a call by a UA employee about a damaged light pole on Highland Avenue at 10 a.m. on Sunday. The officers investigated and searched the surrounding area for cars that had fresh dents, but could not find any. Employees and UAPD officers thought the car hit the pole late Saturday evening or Sunday morning. There are surveillance cameras on Highland Avenue that monitor the area near the damaged pole, but UAPD has yet to view them because the tapes have not been processed. The pole was disconnected from service and dragged to the side of the road for repair. There are no witnesses or suspects at this time.

Expired tags and a suspended license

A UAPD officer pulled over a UA student in a blue Pontiac Sunfire at 10:35 a.m. on Tuesday because his license plate’s tags were expired. The officer asked the student for his driver’s license and registration. The UA student informed the officer that he did not have his license on him. After the officer asked for further information, the student said he had just lied and handed the officer his license. The student then said his license was suspended and that, “I was only driving for my girlfriend because she is afraid to drive the car and have it break down if she continued to drive it.” The student also did not have registration or insurance information in the car with him. The owner of the car was the student’s mother and she had not permitted the student or his girlfriend to drive it. The officer conducted a search in the car and found sets of brass knuckles. The student told the officer, “I don’t want them and you can take them.” The student was cited for driving with a suspended license, no mandatory insurance and no current registration. The vehicle was towed and impounded.

Bike thieves caught in action A UAPD officer was patrolling the BioSciences East building and surrounding areas on Tuesday at 5:40 p.m. when he noticed two UA students, one man and one woman, riding their bikes near the bike racks. The man jumped off his bike and attempted to yank another bike from the racks. The officer called in the incident to dispatch and described the pair’s actions and physical appearance before approaching them. The man jumped back onto his bike and fled. The officer asked the subjects to stop, but neither listened. As UAPD patrol cars arrived, the woman stopped while the man continued. Officers interrogated the woman and asked for her driver’s license. The Tucson Police Department confirmed that the she had two warrants out for her arrest. UAPD officers arrested her and took her to Pima County Jail. Her bike was taken into UAPD Property and Evidence. The man was eventually caught by police, knocked off his bike and arrested on the ground. He also had two warrants out for his arrest. He was also taken to Pima County Jail and his bike was taken into UAPD Property and Evidence.

Mcclatchy tribune

WASHINGTON — Animal abusers, take heed. Efforts to establish online registries for animal abusers, like the ones for sex offenders, are gaining support, with legislation pending or soon-to-beintroduced in at least five states.

Among the efforts is one from Florida state Sen. Mike Fasano, who has proposed Dexter’s law, named after a kitten that was beaten to death in his state. His proposal would require convicted animal abusers to register with authorities.

Their names, home addresses and photographs would be posted online, and they would be required to pay $50 a year to maintain the registry.

Registries also have been proposed in Maryland, Colorado, Arizona and New York. Stephan K. Otto, director of legislative affairs for the Animal Legal Defense Fund, expects similar proposals in more states.

Suffolk County on Long Island in 2010 moved to create a registry, and has

since been followed by two other New York counties. No names appear on the Suffolk County registry yet, because it was only recently set up. Convicted abusers will appear on the registry for five years. Those failing to register are subject to a $1,000 fine and up to a year in jail.

The New York counties also require pet stores and animal shelters to check the names of anyone seeking to adopt or buy an animal against the registry, Otto said.

Maryland state Sen. Ronald Young said he plans to introduce legislation in the wake of two incidents in his state. In one, a Yorkshire terrier was thrown off a 23-foot-high balcony; the dog, Louie, survived. In the other, a golden retriever puppy named Heidi was shot to death.

“Just too many people are mistreating and killing animals,’’ Young said in an interview.

A bill to create such a registry in California, introduced in 2010, didn’t make it

through the Legislature, partly because of concerns about its cost.

The Animal Legal Defense Fund says the registries can reduce the number of abused animals and serve as an early warning system for potentially violent criminals, citing cases of serial killers who had tortured animals as children.

Otto said they also can save taxpayers’ money by reducing the costs of caring for and treating abused animals.

Among the issues that need to be addressed is who should be required to register? Should it include “someone who took their golden retriever out one day, went into a 7-Eleven, but it was too hot outside, and the dog died,” asked Madeline Bernstein, president of the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals in Los Angeles.

Otto said that some states have looked to limit the registry to felons.

Liberty Watch Colorado, in its blog, called the legislation “an unnecessary expansion of government.”

Murdoch settles with phone hacking victims Mcclatchy tribune

LONDON — The media giant News Corp.’s British subsidiary agreed to pay hundreds of thousands of dollars in damages to actor Jude Law and 17 other victims of phone hacking by its journalists as part of a settlement announced in a British court on Thursday.

The victims were mainly targeted by the now-defunct News of the World tabloid, which was closed last July by media mogul Rupert Murdoch’s corporation in the wake of the scandal.

Among the claimants awarded compensation were Law and his former wife, actress Sadie Frost; ex-soccer player Paul Gascoigne; former Deputy Prime Minister John Prescott; and James Hewitt, the ex-lover of the late Princess Diana.

The court agreement presided over by Judge Geoffrey Vos awarded $200,000 to Law, who was tracked by the newspaper’s hackers even while in the United

States, and $78,000 to his ex-wife.

Law had claimed that for several years until 2006 no aspect of his private life was safe from intrusion by the reporters. He later learned from police that he and his family were under constant surveillance as well as having their phones tapped.

Prescott, who will receive about $60,000, alleged in a statement read to the court Thursday that his emails were intercepted.

The 18 claimants, along with 19 others who previously settled, are a fraction of the total of some 800 phone-hacking allegations that have already been investigated by police. More than a thousand cases are still being pursued, Scotland Yard said. The hacking was mainly carried out by private investigators working for journalists in search of stories.

News Group Newspapers, the subsidiary, refused to comment on Thursday’s proceedings.

Last year the media group set up a compensation plan “as an alternative to litigation and in order to speed up the process by which the victims … can be compensated,” the company said in a statement last November.

The phone hacking of celebrities had been known about for several years, but the scandal finally sparked a public furor in July when the Guardian revealed that the News of the World had tapped into the mobile phone of teenage murder victim Milly Dowler. The revelations led to the resignations or firings of senior police officers, media executives and journalists, as well as to at least 18 arrests for invasion of privacy and related crimes.

In 2007, News of the World royal correspondent Clive Goodman was sentenced and jailed for listening in on royal household phones, but at the time officials with Murdoch’s corporation insisted that the hacking practices went no further.

Protest Highland Market’s high prices Dan Desrochers Daily Wildcat

C

ollege is expensive. With outrageously increasing tuition, high housing costs, large textbook expenses and overpriced meal plans, the university seems set on making sure that students are broke as well as educated when we graduate. While students often complain about the high tuition or the ridiculous textbook rates, we tend to overlook one major money thief: Highland Market.

Located at the corner of Highland Avenue and Sixth Street, Highland Market sits in perfect proximity to most of the housing on campus, creating a easy place for students to purchase a breakfast burrito or a convenience store item.

With the large selection, the good food, and the ability to use a CatCard, Highland Market seems like a college student’s dream come true.

That’s before you look at the prices.

While Highland offers a lot of the food and materials that would typically be purchased at an inconvenient Target or Circle K, the convenience comes at a price. Many of the items at Highland are much more expensive than other stores.

Campbell’s Soup at Highland market cost 41 percent more than the exact same soup at Walmart, and the DiGiorno Frozen Pizza was 42 percent more than one would find at an off-campus food store.

Once again, the university is finding a way to shake all the loose change out of our pockets.

Highland Market is operated

by Arizona Student Unions, and just like the UMart and the other restaurants on campus, the Union controls its prices.

Through allowing students to use their meal plan and CatCard for the convenience store items, students are more inclined to purchase food at Highland Market than at a different store like Circle K. “They are taking advantage of us,” said undeclared freshman Phill Mendel.

The university may be taking advantage of our wallets, but it’s because we are letting them.

Every time that we purchase an item from Highland Market, we allow them to overcharge us. Indiana University offers students a 40 percent discount when they use their student ID cards; all we get are fewer taxes.

The extra dollar spent at Highland Market may not seem like a big deal, but the high prices serve as just another example of the UA trying to rip us off.

It’s asinine to ask people to completely stop going to Highland and it’s ridiculous to think that people will stop buying products there. But when you walk up to that register to make your purchase, take a moment to think about the pricing, take a moment to think about how the university is overcharging us just because it can, because those thoughts lead to change and that’s something that doesn’t seem to be in our pockets.

We can’t stop paying tuition and we can’t stop buying textbooks, but we can buy items at Highland Market less frequently. Take a walk, ride a bike or get a friend to drive you to Target or Circle K. The UA has been nickel and diming us for too long, and it’s time to take a stand. We’ve been occupying Highland Market for too long; it’s time to vacate it.

Fixing gun checks a smart step toward social harmony A

s we move on from the anniversary of the Jan. 8, 2011, shooting, which killed six, survivors and family members of victims refuse to be silent about the cause of the shooting. In November, survivors and family members of victims testified to Congress for stricter gun laws. They’ve gotten the ball rolling, and it has some big-time supporters behind it to help push.

Victims and family members are supporters of an initiative started by the group Mayors Against Illegal Guns. The group is composed of about 600 mayors from around the nation, such as New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg. Flagstaff’s Sara Presler is the only mayor from

taxes and paperwork to gun buyers who are mostly law-abiding citizens.

As someone who grew up in Oakland, Calif., where murder and homicides are prevalent every day, guns are seen more as Luke Davis a danger than a civil liberty. Many Daily Wildcat Americans throughout the country bear arms because they believe it’s Arizona to join the coalition. Earlier their American right to own and this month, the Tucson shooting carry weapons.

If they saw and felt what so many unfortunate Americans deal with every day then maybe they would see how guns don’t make Americans, they destroy them.

More needs to be done than just the creation of stricter gun laws. Oakland has some of the strictest gun laws in America. But changing the way we view guns is a stronger and more important step in promoting world and domestic peace.

The Fix Gun Checks Act won’t bring social harmony, but it does promote progress. If we can see guns for what they truly are, then maybe incidents like the Jan. 8, 2011, shooting won’t happen again.

The ability to use open-source software, cloud computing, or free/academically discounted software and materials, would mitigate a potential lack of pirated goods students might use for their coursework.

GARDEN STATE OF MIND Govinda’s serves up vegetarian feast and tranquil dining experience for students

By Cecelia Marshall Daily Wildcat

JIM O’ROURKE / Daily Wildcat

Employees of Govinda’s Natural Food Buffet, on the corner of Euclid Avenue and Blacklidge Drive, serves vegetarian food options to UA students.

Not all restaurant owners can say their menu items are carefully prepared by monks, or that the building is attached to a temple, or that their guests can enjoy the company of live macaws in the dining room — Govinda’s Natural Foods Buffet offers all these features and is still adding on with the celebration of the opening of its new library this Saturday from noon to 2 p.m. including, of course, vegetarian refreshments and snacks.

Open since 1992, Govinda’s is a nonprofit organization and restaurant known for its vegan and vegetarian options as well as its therapeutic atmosphere. Its resortlike environment, attached to a Hare Krishna temple, is enclosed within a colorfully decorated oasis.

If you’re feeling adventurous, wander inside and kick off your shoes, sit cross-legged on the floor and eat in the temple room.

The free Wi-Fi and the quiet atmosphere makes it an ideal place to escape to finish a paper or study for an exam.

The restaurant has served as a Hare Krishna center for prayer, meditation and transcendental classes for almost 25 years. The Hare Krishna monks, many of whom live on the property, are the chefs in the kitchen and have been specially trained to cook the vegetarian dishes.

The monks cook with only good intentions, and make the food gently and kindly, so that when you eat it, you feel well, said Gene Filaseta of the temple management team.

brunches.

Govinda’s is a buffet, but the goal isn’t to eat as much as possible.

Instead, it’s all about enjoying the flavors, the process of eating and the atmosphere of the restaurant.

Conn Huffaker, who was visiting from Wisconsin, said he found Govinda’s to be peaceful.

“The grounds are very attractive with the birds and koi,” Huffaker said, commenting on the surroundings with peacocks, a waterfall and guest accommodations.

Govinda’s also has a gift shop, which offers unique treasures such as jewelry, candles, incense, books, CDs and more, all imported directly from India, Thailand, Nepal and Bali.

Make sure you walk around outside during your visit to Govinda’s Natural Foods Buffet.

Whether you find yourself reflecting near the koi pond, peering at the peacocks and parakeets, or stumbling across the many Hare Krishna sculptures, Govinda’s is sure to be a cultural experience for anyone interested in visiting.

Students, it’s time to trade in those gym sneakers and “work it” with a pair of 7-inch heels. With a couple of bottles of hairspray, layers of makeup, fake eyelashes and a whole lot of attitude, a couple of struts down the Moda Provocateur runway will easily push anyone to supermodel status.

The Southern Arizona AIDS Foundation is hosting its ninth annual “Moda Provocateur” fashion show on March 4, and it needs models. The event’s proceeds go to the organization’s programs and services such as food and housing, said event coordinator Monique Vallery.

“The great thing about this show is, anybody can model,” Vallery said. “It’s about personality. It’s about giving back and being a part of something.”

The show doesn’t require a certain age, size, shape or look.

Vallery encourages everyone to come to the model call, even if they have never modeled before.

“We will help them learn how to walk the runway,” she said.

On Monday from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m., anyone can audition on the UA Mall to be one of this year’s volunteer models. Each person will have their own number, get their photo taken and walk on a makeshift runway, said Carol Cullivan, the associate development director for SAAF. The dimensions of the runway will mimic the 72-foot T-shape runway in the actual show, Vallery said.

Those who are chosen will model in Moda’s elaborate event in March, which had an audience of about 800 people last year, Cullivan said.

“It’s a full-scale production,” Vallery said. “I think people get a lot more than they expect when they come in.”

Up to 250 models can participate in the show and more than 100 are expected to be selected from the model call this year, Cullivan said. Boutique and salon owners will also be there to choose their models. Last year, about 110 models in the show were UA students.

“Show up and have personality,” Vallery said. “If you

Govinda’s serves only organic produce, including raw, unprocessed grains and unrefined sugars. All the employees, from cooks to dishwashers, are vegetarian. The restaurant’s chefs also make their own cheese and grind their own spices. Food at the buffet is at least 75 percent vegan, although Govinda’s offers a completely vegan menu on Thursdays and Indian food specials on Tuesdays.

“The flavors mix well together,” said Shaina Shay, a senior studying French and environment and water resource economics. She explained that she enjoys Govinda’s medley of organic salad dressings, including cashew dressing and sweet mustard dressing, which she mixed together on her salad instead of choosing only one.

Govinda’s also features samosas, homemade apricot bread, vegetarian sloppy joes, eggplant parmesan, lentil croquettes and scrambled tofu for their Sunday

can just bring kind of that attitude and personality, that’s really what the salons are looking for.”

The event will showcase salons including Avalon for Hair, Skin and Nails, Ahead of Style, Aveda Institute of Tucson, Mia Bella Salon and Spa and Style 7 Salon.

Each salon is matched up with a boutique and will have 20 to 40 models in the show, Cullivan said. The event also includes the “Project Moda” segment, which is a local fashion design competition modeled off of the television series, “Project Runway.” Participating designers and their models will present their designs on the runway, which will also include the winning selections.

“It’s a great way to experience this, as well as be able to give back to your community,” Vallery said.

The 2012 theme, “Stand by Me” is meant to send a message about HIV/AIDS caregivers. Vallery

said “the fight has not stopped” against HIV and AIDS. Last year’s Moda event raised about $60,000 for SAAF, Cullivan said. This year, the foundation’s goal is to raise $65,000 and showcase a bevy of local designers.

“New York has nothing on Tucson when it comes to style and fashion,” Cullivan said, “and we’re going to show you with this event.”

John Mayer is a douche in its most eloquent form. What he lacks in charm, he makes up for in fretwork, branding himself as a musician’s musician despite his media image. Whatever your personal take on him may be, it’s undeniable that Mayer possesses the qualities of an icon: temperamental, a longstanding and variated career, and an ardor for his craft. Granted, we all could have done without “Waiting On The World to Change” or “Your Body Is A Wonderland,” but his work with his short-lived blues trio is a testament to the prowess he possesses.

Fall Out Boy and Cartel

High school throwbacks can be a shame-filled walk down memory lane, and the pop-punk era that characterized our freshman years is usually no exception. Of all the cookie-cutter MTV-core, Fall Out Boy and Cartel tended to lead the pack with the catchiest of hooks.

Fall Out Boy’s 2005 breakthrough From Under The Cork Tree was the hit-making machine of the summer, giving us “Sugar, We’re Going Down,” while also making virtually every other song on the album a single. FOB’s melodic senses were a similar language found on Cartel’s Chroma, in which the Atlantabased band utilized a three-guitar attack to its fullest potential, creating arena-anthem riffs. The emo phase in pop-rock may have been a gutter phenomenon, but there should be no chastisement for indulging in either of these bands.

‘Glee’

“Glee” is one of the most polarizing shows on television today, driving Dave Grohl to lash out and devoting a full episode to Britney Spears. From a musical standpoint, the show is immaculate from its rearrangements to its mashups. Its crown jewel is Darren Criss’ “Teenage Dream.” From the Warblers’ acapella opening to the vocal swells building into the chorus, this song is made to belt at the top of your lungs.

winning ways Wildcats overcome Hill ejection, run over short-handed Utes

By Nicole Dimtsios Daily Wildcat

Solomon Hill wasn’t able to make an impact with any clutch baskets or game-changing blocks against the Utah Utes, but his ejection with 18:14 remaining in the second half might have been just what Arizona needed.

Hill was thrown out of Thursday’s 77-51 win over Utah (4-14, 1-5 Pac-12) for a “flagrant elbow” to the back of the head of Utah’s Cedric Martin. The two were battling for position.

Although he appeared woozy after the initial contact, Martin returned to the game just three minutes later.

The Wildcats (13-6, 4-2) hit their next six shots, followed by a 20-6 run over the next six minutes to build a 20-point lead. Hill exited the game with five points, four rebounds and one assist. In Hill’s absence, Arizona got help from its bench, which outscored the Utes’ bench by 30 points.

Arizona found offense by way of the 3-pointer, which helped offset its early struggles. The Wildcats shot 12-of-24 from beyond the arc for the game and picked up their offense in the second half by shooting 58 percent from the floor.

Heeding head coach Sean Miller’s words this week about ball security, the Wildcats had

just nine turnovers, well below their season average of 14.8 in Pac-12 games.

The Wildcats lead 33-28 at halftime, but Miller wasn’t happy with the offensive effort from Arizona at that point.

Arizona was 12-of-32 from the field. Miller emphasized ball security during the week prior to this game, but Arizona struggled early, racking up six turnovers by halftime. Four of those six belonged to freshman Nick Johnson, but the guard still finished the game with 11 points, four rebounds, one steal and three assists.

Johnson was 3-of-4 from 3-point range.

“We’re not playing well,” Miller told Fox Sports Net at halftime. “When you don’t play well on the road it’s hard to win.”

Arizona went on a 12-2 run to build a 10-point lead at the 7:38 mark of the first half, but the Utes had their own 9-2 run to get back in the game.

But Hill’s ejection sparked big games from junior Kevin Parrom, who hit double digits for the first time since he scored 11 points in Arizona’s win over Bryant University on Dec. 22. Parrom hit three 3-pointers and finished with 12 points. Freshman Josiah Turner and senior Kyle Fogg joined Johnson and Parrom with double-digit scoring efforts in Hill’s absence.

verage teams can’t have an “on/off ” switch.

Mediocre Pac-12 squads don’t have the right to take possessions off. Players aren’t going to get ejected every night to light a fire under a lifeless team.

That’s exactly what the Wildcats were before Solomon Hill was ejected on Thursday night against Utah — lifeless.

Sluggish ’Cats fall to Utes in OT

By Cameron Moon Daily Wildcat

Keith Hickman-Perfetti / Daily Wildcat

Arizona starting point guard Shanita Arnold goes up for a layup against Utah on Thursday. The Wildcats lost the game in overtime by a score of 65-60.

Prior to the Wildcats’ game Thursday night against Utah in McKale Center, women’s basketball head coach Niya Butts stressed two things that would dictate whether or not Arizona won: rebounding and defense.

The Wildcats lost the rebounding battle in the first half 27-19, and were outrebounded 46-37 for the game. Arizona was unable to overcome the margin, and the Wildcats lost 65-60 in overtime.

“All we stress is playing defense and rebounding,” said sophomore guard Candice Warthen, who played in her first game since Dec. 3. “We had one offensive rebound in the first half. We need to do better; it’s a big deal. We know we’re better than that.”

Arizona (13-5, 2-4 Pac-12) guard Davellyn Whyte led all scorers with 32 points. At halftime, Whyte had 14 of Arizona’s 18 points, which helped to offset the team shooting only 28.6 percent from the floor. Butts said the biggest problem wasn’t the lack of scoring; it was the lack of energy.

“Overall it was a bad game, and

this one hurts, this is a disappointing one for us because we played with such a lack of energy,” Butts said. “It bothers me that we were in overtime. Our lack of aggressiveness and pride in our defense kept us from winning the game in regulation.”

The one thing that was saving the Wildcats down the stretch was Utah’s poor shooting. In the first five minutes of the second half, Arizona shot 75 percent, while Utah struggled, shooting just 37.5 percent.

Despite the disparity in shooting, the Utes were still in the game due to their rebounding led by center Taryn Wicijowski, who ended with 16 points and 13 rebounds.

In the waning moments of regulation, Whyte was able to hit a 3-pointer to keep the game tied.

Utah was unable to convert their opportunity in the final three seconds, which sent the game into overtime.

In the overtime period, the Wildcats’ lack of energy came back to bite them.

“In overtime, when you don’t have energy and you’re not playing with that much passion, things like that are going to happen,” Butts said. “We just didn’t have enough punch to step in there and fight

Arizona hockey in must-win mode

By Kyle Johnson Daily Wildcat After the Arizona hockey team’s series against Michigan State last weekend, head coach Sean Hogan told his team in the locker room that the national tournament starts now and every game needs to have a playoff atmosphere.

It seems fitting then, that the No. 18 Wildcats begin their own personal national tournament this weekend by taking on defending champion No. 13 Davenport on Friday and Saturday at 7:30 p.m. in the Tucson Convention Center.

“We need to get into that mentality that it’s either now or never, and these big-ticket games are going to be our way to the national tournament,” forward Blake Richards said. “We have to start playing like it’s the end of the season now, or we aren’t going to accomplish anything.”

With only six games left until the national tournament selections are announced, Arizona needs to make the most of its chances this weekend if it wants to rank high enough to make the tournament.

Davenport won’t be an easy opponent, but defender Jonathan Watanabe said the Wildcats are focusing on playing their own game right now.

“We are a quick team and we like to push the pace of the game,” Watanabe said. “If we can do that, skate hard, and work the puck down low, they’ll have a tough time keeping up with us.”

Davenport may be a little worn down after playing Tuesday and Wednesday in Tempe, losing 5-1 and 3-0 to No. 3 ASU. After it finishes its series against the Wildcats, Davenport will have played four games in five days.

through whatever we were feeling to get the win.”

Whyte and starting point guard Shanita Arnold each played a season-high 44 minutes. After the game, Whyte said the increase in minutes didn’t faze her.

“

We had one offensive rebound in the first half. ... We know we’re better than that.

“

­— Candice Warthen, sophomore guard

“Of course I was tired. Adrenaline was so high, I wasn’t worried about being tired,” Whyte said. “I was worried about getting stops and trying to win the game. We didn’t take care of home court tonight.”

Going forward, Butts knows exactly what Arizona needs to do if it wants to start winning games.

“Wake up,” she said. “Otherwise you’re going to look up and half of Pac-12 play will be half over and we can’t allow these games to keep getting away from us.”

W-Hoops to ‘White Out’ fans against Colorado

By Zack Rosenblatt

AMy Webb / Daily Wildcat

Arizona senior defenseman Jonathan Wantanabe takes the puck up the ice. The Wildcats are on the cusp of a postseason berth, and they need to start winning games if they want to make it there.

“It’s good to know that maybe they will be a little (tired), but I’m sure they’ll come bringing their ‘A’ game,” Richards said. “They’re going to want to not leave here without a win.”

The Wildcats had their own struggles before this weekend too. The band Tool had a concert at the TCC Tuesday night, so the team had to travel to a practice facility in Chandler that is more than an hour away. But Richards said it better prepared

team members and brought them closer as a team.

For Watanabe and Richards, as well as the rest of the seniors on the team, this will be their second-tolast series at home, making the games this weekend just that much more important for the Wildcats.

“I don’t think it’s hit me quite yet,” Richards said.

“I know it will eventually, hopefully not too hard.

It’s been great, I love playing in front of the fans and that’s something I’ll always take away from it.”

Daily Wildcat Arizona women’s basketball will try to make the fan base more of a factor on Sunday when the Wildcats welcome Colorado to McKale Center at 2:30 p.m.

The team is encouraging fans to wear white to Sunday’s game, which will be televised nationally on Fox Sports Net. White “aNIYAlator” T-shirts, alluding to Arizona head coach Niya Butts, can be purchased in McKale Center for $10.

“I’m hoping that we can get a lot of people in the stands for that game,” Butts said. “Our supporters have been great all year long, it won’t be any different

Arizona tennis to open season The women’s team will host UC Santa Barbara and the men will welcome NAU

By Iman Hamdan Daily Wildcat In the hopes of sparking the community’s interest in Arizona tennis, both men’s and women’s teams will play their season-opening matches at Tucson Country Club on Saturday beginning at 11 a.m. The women will host UC Santa Barbara and the men will host NAU. “This will be the first time since I’ve been at Arizona that we kicked off the season like this,” said head coach Tad Berkowitz. “It’s a nice way to reach out to the community and our fan base to bring them in on the action.”

All eight of the women’s team members will be returning from the fall season. The men’s team roster has changed slightly after losing sophomore Mike Pigou to a serious wrist injury.

The team recruited two freshmen, India native

Sumeet Shinde and Romania native Sebastian Ionescu.

“They will compete for us right out of the gate,” Berkowitz said. “It’s a big challenge for them because they learn what college tennis is about, basically in a week.”

The Campbell/ITA College Tennis Rankings of 2012 were released on Jan. 3, and the men were ranked No. 55 while the women’s team checked in at No. 32.

In singles play, senior Natasha Marks ranked No. 57 and sophomores Kim Stubbe and Lacey Smyth ranked No. 73 and No. 107, respectively.

Marks and Stubbe ranked No. 49 for doubles play.

In men’s tennis, three Pac-12 teams ranked in the top 15 — No. 1 USC, No. 9 UCLA and No. 14 California. Meanwhile, five women’s teams are ranked in the top-20: No. 2 Stanford, No. 5 UCLA, No. 8 California, No. 16 USC and No. 18 ASU. Alex Kulpinski / Daily Wildcat “It’s a good challenge competing in the Pac12 because this year it’s the strongest conference Arizona men’s tennis freshman Sumeet Shinde hits the ball in practice. The Wildcats have a tough road ahead as they compete in a tough Pac-12 Conference. in the country,” Berkowitz said.

UA swim team takes on top-10 Calif. schools

By Cameron Moon Daily Wildcat

The No. 1 Arizona men’s and No. 5 women’s swim and dive teams will travel to Northern California this weekend to face the California Golden Bears and the Stanford Cardinal. The Wildcats face Cal today at 2 p.m., and the Stanford meet is scheduled for noon on Saturday.

Both meets will be tough on the Wildcats. Cal and Stanford are both ranked in the top 10 nationally, and the predicted high for the entire weekend in the Bay Area is 49 degrees, with showers throughout. Arizona head coach Eric Hansen isn’t worried about the challenges it will present.

“They’ll be fast and it’s going to be cold and rainy, it’s not going to be optimal, but everybody’s got to swim in it,” Hansen said. “We’ll make the best of it. We want to be fast in March, and now’s the time where we’ve got to start getting sharp. We look forward to the challenge.”

The Wildcats have been riding high since the Texas Invite in December, in which they qualified 11 individuals and all relay teams for 17 events. Since then, they’ve been training not only for the meets this weekend, but the rest of the schedule in general, said associate head coach Geoff Hanson.

“The Texas Invite was kind of our peak in December for first semester, then we got back to training,” Hanson said. “It’s been a heavy training workload, but at the same time that’s what we have to do if we want to peak in March.”

The Wildcats have averaged about 2,053 fans per game so far this season.

Against North Texas on Nov. 28, Arizona held a “Field Trip Day” for local elementary schools and welcomed a season-high 4,327 fans.

known for its hoops prowess, has taken the conference by storm this season.

Sure, the Buffs still haven’t played a ranked team, but they’re athletic, seasoned and well on their way to a breakout season.

The Wildcats will have their hands full with senior guards Carlon Brown and Nate Tomlinson as well as double-double machine Andre Roberson.

Arizona bigs have to be on poster alert after Roberson absolutely smashed on 7-foot-2 ASU center Jordan Bachynski.

The Buffs are the real deal, or at least as real as a middle of the road Pac-12 squad can be. They’re 10-1 in the Coors Events Center this season, making Arizona’s must-win game that much more difficult.

Both teams are 4-2 in the Pac-12 and need a win to sneak up the totem pole and better their NCAA Tournament resumes. But if Arizona hits the snooze button for too long as it did against Utah, the Wildcats could find themselves on the couch in March.
