LOVEOLOGY ‘Hanging out’ or ‘watching a movie,’ avoiding labels, keeping it casual — whatever you call it, it’s not dating. So what is it?

It’s a lot rarer for someone to try and make plans to hang out sober, Teran added.

Women have as much of a role in starting a relationship Throughout college, Scotney has casually dated men she met as men do, some students added.

“Chivalry works on both sides,” said Cameron Whitlow, through mutual friends and a criminal justice freshman. “Like, girls like to say guys at house parties, but it never are assholes and all they want is sex, but if you look at UA seemed to lead to anything but awkward encounters and casual Confessions [on Facebook], and you hear girls talk, they’re all the same.” hook-ups.

A lot of men and women seem to think rushing into sex “Dating in college … it seems like if a guy asks you to hang out, is normal for college; hooking up doesn’t promise much.

“I’m not going to get with someone I went all the way sometimes he’s asking [you]on a date,” she said. “But you don’t with on the first night,” said Jesus Ortiz, an economics junior, “because they don’t respect themselves … enough necessarily know you’re being asked out until you start hanging to get to know me.

k.c. libman In modern cinema, movies where sexual orientation, family tradition and cultural boundaries intersect are few and far between. But just such a film premiered to positive critical reaction at the Sundance Film Festival in 2011, and now that film is coming to the UA. In the 2011 film “Gun Hill Road,” named after the major avenue that cuts through the Bronx neighborhood of New York City, culture meets change when an ex-convict, played by Esai Morales, returns home after a lengthy prison sentence. There he finds his wife emotionally involved with another man and his child, who he thought was a son, undergoing a gender transition.

This altered version of his family leaves Morales’ character struggling to come to terms with his transgender daughter’s choices and his wife’s infidelity, while trying to remain both a husband and a father in the eyes of his parole officer.

The film explores the sometimes unyielding ideals of Latino machismo, which holds masculinity above all else.

The concept is intrinsic in Morales’ character, as is evident in his seedy past and his inability to cope with his child’s transition.

But Harmony Santana is the film’s true star. While “Gun Hill Road” centers around Morales’ character and his struggle to come to terms with how life went on without him, it’s Santana’s backstory that’s most worth focusing on. As a transgender actress who plays a young transgender woman transitioning in the film, Santana portrays the most multidimensional character in “Gun Hill Road.” Her performance has garnered her national attention and accolades.

Presented by the ASUA Pride Alliance, the Office of LGBTQ Affairs, Chicano/Hispano Student Affairs, Campus Health Services, the LGBT Studies Institute and the Dean of Students Office, “Gun Hill Road” will play at the Gallagher Theater on Friday. After the free screening, director Rashaad Ernesto Green will be on hand for a question and answer session.

Juan Pereyra, the graduate assistant intern coordinator with the Office of LGBTQ Affairs, helped to bring the film, and Green, to Tucson. “It’s an event I’ve been wanting to do for some time,” he said. “It brings different aspects of life together to have a discussion about it.”

But as important as the discussion about the film is, what’s most valuable is what the viewer takes away from the movie itself.

“A big part of the movie is developing family relationships and the conflicts between parent and child,” Pereyra explained. “[The film] resonates with college students, as we’re still trying to help our parents to understand our lives right now.”

If you’re looking to broaden your horizons and gain insight into the intersection between tradition, culture and change, it’s worth spending your Friday night at Gallagher Theater.

School yourself on two wheels: Learn bicycle mechanics at BICAS audrey molloy

If you find yourself in a bit of a slump this semester, get yourself in gear at BICAS, an underground haven for self-powered movement. It’s green, it’s affordable and it’s certainly radical.

The Tucson nonprofit collective Bicycle Inter-Community Art and Salvage is not a bike shop. It is an organization that provides the community with the knowledge, resources and space to fix a bicycle and set itself in motion.

The underground concrete space that houses BICAS is extensive and spacious, the beams adorned with hanging bicycle wheels in all shapes, sizes, colors and degrees of imperfection. More than a few bike aficionados bustle about the workplace, and a sea of bicycles in the center of the room imbues the viewer with a feeling of whimsy. Boxes of parts are scattered about the basement, cordoned off by the purpose they serve.

For those already familiar with the mechanics of a bike, BICAS is a candy shop, and you’re a greasy little kid. If you’re mechanically challenged, this is the place to familiarize yourself with the tools of the trade while being guided along every step of the way.

The BICAS community is made up of the kind of people who welcome newcomers with open arms, albeit with hands grimy from bicycle repair. But a little grease never hurt anyone, and in this case, it’s for a good cause.

“We have trained thousands of youth and adults in the trade of bicycle repair, maintenance and safety, and restored thousands of bicycles, saving them from the waste stream,” reads a message on the collective’s website.

Kylie Walzak, BICAS’s administration coordinator, has been involved with the organization five years this April.

“I got involved with BICAS after taking one of the BuildA-Bike classes offered and was so thrilled to find a place that offered such dynamic community outreach programs,” Walzak said.

Sustained entirely by donations and recyclable materials, BICAS is a collaborative space. It’s an alternative kind of community outreach, fueled through community donations and participation.

This symbiotic relationship has sustained the organization since 1994.

The patrons of BICAS are a colorful microcosm of greater Tucson: “Older folks, families, people like you and me, students from the [university] … we see just about everyone,” said Monique Laraway, a member of the BICAS collective.

BICAS operates as a maintenance location, bicycle education center, sustainable arts complex, supply shop and community outreach program, with a wealth of recycled bicycle riches.

Plus, who doesn’t love saving money? BICAS caters to the student budget with a work-trade program that awards volunteers eight dollars of store credit an hour to put toward a used bike.

As all the available materials and bicycles are either salvaged or donated, this is by far the most economic and environmentally friendly means to get moving. For bicycle enthusiasts, BICAS’s recycled pieces means that there are some gems to be found amidst the plethora of parts. A keen eye and resilient disposition can score you high-end track hubs, Italian road bike handlebars or even retro racing framesets.

Keep coming back to BICAS and you may be lucky enough to put together a two-wheeled beauty that will warrant the jealousy of even the most seasoned cyclists.

You’ll probably meet some characters, too; that’s one of the charms of BICAS. “I like the diversity of people coming in to use BICAS’ services,” Walzak said. “There will be an entire family with little kids working side by side next to a student, who’s working next to a homeless person.”

The mission of BICAS is to get people moving, to create a collective space for growth and self-fulfilled opportunity. It is engaging people in a sustainable practice that ultimately benefits everyone, a practice that those at BICAS feel is by no means losing momentum.

For those in need of a new perspective, a new ride or just a certain bike part, BICAS is the place to go. kyle wasson/Matt Fulton/arizona Daily Wildcat Bicas Bike Shop, located at 44 W. 6th St., accommodates experienced and amatuer riders alike with tools, parts and service.

Brass Tax brings its singular sound to Sky Bar this Saturday

ALEX WHELAN Stale pop music is enough for some people, but for the rest of us there’s local band Brass Tax. Brass Tax is a four-piece band whose eccentric instrumentation has featured everything from the marimba to auxiliary percussion scoured from a junkyard.

It’s hard not to be excited about a band whose ReverbNation page is categorized, intriguingly, as “Metal/Electronic/Jazz.” The band more than lives up to the description. “I’ve always been attracted to more maudlin, complex types of music,” said co-founder and multi-instrumentalist Frank Bair. “With Brass Tax we have the opportunity to just be adventurous.”

Soon after Bair’s move from North Carolina to Tucson in April 2010, he co-founded Brass Tax with Chris Halvorsen, whose 16 years of marimba playing quickly made them one of the

more singular live shows in town.

“I’ve always been pushed to do more violin work with this band,” said Bair, who studied the instrument for years before switching his focus to music recording.

According to Bair, Brass Tax started out as a primarily electronic band, supporting Bair and Halvorsen’s live playing with backing tracks and drum programming.

With Bair’s experience as a producer and programmer on their side, the two soon augmented their live setup and expanded to include Erik Ketchup on percussion instruments crafted from found items and products from home improvement stores.

“We just started going to Home Depot with drumsticks and banging on everything we could see, picking out what we liked and what we wanted to incorporate in the songs,” Bair said. “I always wondered what the employees

thought about these weirdos coming in to drum on their stuff.”

Despite its experimental tendencies, the band has always taken great care to ensure its music remains grounded for the public, which Bair said is a challenge. “The goal is to be able to think outside the box musically but still bridge the gap between what we want to make and what makes sense to perform at places around town,” he said.

Nonetheless, the band is quick to acknowledge that Tucson has been an exceptional place for it to create and play its quirky sounds.

With the addition of drummer Darrin Wood late last year, Brass Tax aims to explore realms of sonic space that were not available with the previous drum programming. “It adds to the overall sound considerably,” Wood said.

“I think the songs are able to be a lot more colorful now,” Bair added, calling the presence of live drums “definitely a breath of fresh

air.”

In addition to the live show on Saturday, Brass Tax promises to have more performances over the next few months. The band also plans to record a new lineup sometime soon.

“I think it’s very important that music be challenging,” Bair said. “I know some people would rather just play straightforward rock or whatever because doing something more complex is too much work. For us, it’s never too much work.”

ARIZONA SHOT A worse percentage than the Huskies, but was still able to pull out a win.

proved he could handle a talented center on the road after going toe-to-toe with Washington’s Aziz N’Diaye.

Tarczewski had 10 points and eight rebounds but missed two dunks during the game that could have pushed his performance to the next level.

Motum’s versatility means the two freshman forwards, Brandon Ashley and Grant Jerrett, will most likely be assigned to shut down the Cougars’ main threat. If they manage that, then the Wildcats should continue clawing their way back into the Pac-12 title race.

But Arizona isn’t looking to just win the conference.

A loss to Washington State would take a major bite out of the Wildcats’ credibility, fair or not.

“Expectations are high. We set the bar high because we won 14 [games] in a row; we’re ranked high nationally,” Miller said. “When we lose it’s, ‘What’s wrong?’ and I understand that.”

After winning in Seattle, though, the Wildcats are a victory in Pullman away from their first road Washington sweep since December 2005. Not a bad way of putting those questions to rest.

Field named All-American luke davis Arizona baseball junior outfielder Johnny Field is one of the top offensive Wildcats returning to the roster in 2013. He was honored for his prior success by being named a Preseason All-America Third Team by Baseball America on Thursday.

The player they call “Man Baby” had a breakout year in 2012. Field hit for a .370 batting average, drove in 44 runs and scored 72 runs. His success at the plate earned him the 2012 Pac-12 batting title and a roster spot on the collegiate USA national team.

Field, who was listed as a designated hitter on the AllAmerica list, drastically improved his stats between his freshman and sophomore year. The right-handed outfielder only hit .297 in 2011 and reached base 11 percent less than in his sophomore year.

“He’s a great player,” Arizona head coach Andy Lopez

said. “We’re going to need him this year, but we got to make sure he doesn’t try too hard to carry the team.”

Last season, Field hit second in the batting order for the Wildcats, but this season Lopez has said he expects Field to hit more in the heart of the lineup.

Field was highly recruited out of high school in Las Vegas, Nev., but he began to gain a lot of national attention after he opened the 2012 postseason in NCAA regionals by batting .533 with 10 RBI and eight runs, including a grand slam in a three-game sweep by the Wildcats.

2013 will be the first year since he graduated from high school that Field is eligible for the Major League Baseball draft, but he’s not too worried about the draft.

“I can’t think about that right now,” Field said. “It’s way too early for that, and I’m more focused on getting this team ready for the season.”

The Wildcats will open the 2013 season on Feb. 15 at Hi-Corbett field as they host Coppin State.

Hockey takes on ASU in Tempe james kelley Wildcat hockey has two birds to kill with one stone this week: ending its 28-game winless streak against its archrival and earning a trip to nationals.

No. 18 Arizona travels to Tempe, Ariz., to face No. 2 ASU for a two-game series Friday and Saturday night.

“We want to send a message this weekend that we’re capable of beating anyone,” head coach Sean Hogan said.

Thanks to its seven wins over top 11 teams and fourth most difficult schedule in the country, Hogan thinks Arizona is one win away from clinching a spot in the tournament.

This weekend also gives the Wildcats the chance to end the streak.

“We’re playing for both,” said junior forward Andrew Murmes. “We definitely want to make it to nationals. We think we could make a huge splash at nationals, surprise some teams, and to beat ASU and then to clinch a berth in the same exact night … we’re definitely going to have fun.”

The winless streak has progressed quickly over time, with a 0-4-0 record so far this season, a 0-7-1 record against ASU last year, a 0-7-1 mark in 201011 and a 0-8-0 record in 2009-10.

Hogan said Arizona is in rebuilding mode, while ASU is the best it’s ever been.

“Going through that process is frustrating, but in our minds I know for a fact that we match up well with them,” Hogan said. “We can beat those guys.”

Arizona’s last win over the Sun Devils was Feb. 21, 2009, a 4-3 shootout win to cap a series sweep.

That season, 2008-09, was the last time Arizona won the season series, 4-2.

ASU (28-6-0) has nine players with over 20 points this year, while the Wildcats only have three.

Junior forward Colin Hekle, with 53 points, and sophomore forward Kale Dolinski, with 47 points, lead the Sun Devils in scoring.

ASU junior goalie Joseph D’Elia (20-4) has a 2.46 GAA and a .910 save percentage and leads the nation in wins.

Hogan said if the Wildcats don’t give up a fury of goals, which cost them four wins against top-10 teams, they can spring an upset.

“We get caught up in some things that we don’t need to get caught up in, and if we stay out of that, we got a really good shot at beating them,” Hogan said. “We’re playing well right now — the best hockey we’ve played all year.”

Though Arizona owns the overall series advantage at 130-60-8 and the longest win streak (62

games), no current Wildcat or Sun Devil has experienced an Arizona win over ASU. Arizona hasn’t beaten Arizona State on the road since Jan. 31, 2009, when it won 4-0.

After ASU lost at home to Oklahoma 6-3 and No. 16 Central Oklahoma 4-2, it dropped out of the top spot in the rankings, which it had held for eight weeks.

Hogan said the losses were because they were “devastated by injuries,” missing four or five of their leading scorers, but that both teams are at full strength now.

The Sun Devils rebounded last weekend, beating No. 17 Rhode Island in two games by a combined score of 7-0.

The Wildcats are coming off splits with thenNo. 5 Oklahoma and No. 10 Liberty on the road.

Arizon’s last appearance in the postseason tournament was 2005-06.

Murmes guaranteed good fortune for the Wildcats, saying Arizona is “definitely getting the victory.”

“Right now I feel like, actually, our team chemistry’s the best it’s ever been,” Murmes said. “We played four awesome games in a row against Oklahoma and Liberty. I felt like we definitely should have had two in Liberty.”

ell, as the saying goes, the third time’s the charm.

After two primetime flops against Pac-12 opponents Oregon and UCLA in crucial conference games, the Arizona Wildcats defeated Washington last night, 57-53, in head coach Sean Miller’s first victory against Washington in Seattle.

The Huskies are not as talented as the team that made it to the NIT Final Four last season, but they aren’t completely deprived of scorers, either. Heading into the game, C.J. Wilcox was second in the conference with 19 points per game, but Arizona held him to 11 points, partly because of four fouls.

Despite that, both teams struggled to score for most of the night, as proven by a 28-23 halftime score, before the Wildcats were able to pull away with 34 points in the second half.

Arizona (18-2, 6-2 Pac-12) started the game down 16-5 and had more turnovers than made shots in the first half, bringing back memories of the awful eggs the Wildcats laid against UCLA and Oregon; they started the games with sloppy play and were never able to recover.

Washington versus Arizona has turned into a rivalry of sorts since Sean Miller arrived in Tucson, what with Derrick Williams’s block that won the first “whiteout” game, former UW point guard Isaiah Thomas’ game-winning shot that sunk the Wildcats in the Pac-10 championship that same season, and Tony Wroten’s 17 points and block of former Wildcat Josiah Turner’s lastsecond layup last season.

The tide had to turn eventually, right?

Thursday night, the Wildcats were finally better than the Huskies, not because of their prolific 3-point shooting but because, this year, they had an answer for Washington’s Aziz N’Diaye.

Last year, 6-foot-7 center Jesse Perry was left to deal with the 7-foot center, leading to all sorts of problems for the Wildcats.

Freshman center Kaleb Tarczewski kelsee becker/arizona Daily Wildcat fouled out late in the game but tied a THE WILDCATS DEFEATED Washington on the road for the first time since Sean Miller began coaching them, and won in Seattle for career high with 10 points and eight the first time since 2006.

Against ASU two weeks ago, Tarczewski was stuck with the challenge of Thursday night’s game against the Huskies was out of the ordinary. In defending 7-foot-2 junior center Jordan Bachynski, who leads the Pac-12 fact, aside from the fact that Arizona had more turnovers than made shots with 4.3 blocked shots per game; Tarczewski limited him to three points in the first half, the Huskies actually shot a better percentage than the and six rebounds for the game.

Arizona’s high rankings in the polls have put a target on its back all season, but another number has the bull’s-eye painted bright red: its No. 4 overall RPI. After besting Washington in Seattle, Arizona’s resume remains one of the top in the nation. It’ll be put on the line Saturday in Pullman, Wash., with Washington State desperate for a win.

The Cougars (11-9, 2-5 Pac-12) have yet to record a win against a top-50 RPI team. In fact, they haven’t beaten a top-100 or even a top-150 RPI team this season. With a chance to finally get that gold star on their profile, Arizona (18-2, 6-2) has to be ready for an all-out effort in Wallis Beasley Performing Arts Coliseum.

“We’re getting a lot of teams’ best shots,” head coach Sean Miller said during Tuesday’s press conference.

“If you have a chance to beat the No. 4 RPI team, think about what that does for your season.”

A win for Washington State still wouldn’t put it close to the bubble picture in terms of the NCAA tournament, but a loss for Arizona would be a huge black mark on the Wildcats’ otherwise sterling resume.

The Cougars’ No. 158 RPI is the second-weakest in the conference, ahead of Utah, and a loss Saturday could end up costing the Wildcats when the tournament seedings come out in March.

But as easy as the matchup looks on paper, having to travel to Pullman makes the cellar-dwelling Cougars a much tougher test.

“Playing on the road is difficult, so we know that we have to be at our best,” Miller said.

The results haven’t exactly backed that up, though, and Miller feels Arizona has done well handling adversaries out of town. The Wildcats are 5-1 on the road this season and senior Mark Lyons is averaging 4.1 more points per game on the road than at home, even after putting up a road-low of 10 against Washington.

Sophomore Nick Johnson has also scored better in enemy territory, but the difference isn’t as extreme for him as it is for as Lyons. Johnson is averaging around 2.5 more points per game and shooting 2.5 percent better from the floor on the road.

Miller said experience is key in remaining consistent both at home and in hostile environments, but against the Cougars, it’ll be the freshman big men who have the most important job: covering senior Brock Motum.

Motum is the top-scoring front court player in the Pac-12, with 18.9 points per game, and he has proven to be one of the few threats on the somewhat lacking Cougar offense.

The versatile forward leads his team in total points, blocks, rebounds and 3-pointers.

Wildcats try to stop losing streak in McKale luke davis The Arizona women’s basketball team (11-8, 3-5 Pac-12) will look to end its threegame losing streak Friday night at 7 p.m. as it hosts Washington (14-5, 6-2) in McKale Center.

The Wildcats enter Friday’s matchup coming off consecutive road losses to No. 21 Colorado, No. 19 UCLA and most recently, USC. In those three games, Arizona lost by an average of 25.3 points, only making 27 percent of its shots. The Wildcats were also out-rebounded by those three opponents by an average of 6.7 per game.

“We’ve got to play more physical,” Arizona head coach Niya Butts said following the Wildcats’ 73-57 loss to UCLA last week. “I’m not happy with our effort.”

Prior to this season, Butts called this year’s group of girls the most athletic Arizona team she had coached since being named head coach in 2008. She stressed that they would need to play aggressive full-court defense and score points off turnovers in order to tyler besh/arizona Daily Wildcat compete day in and day out.

release following the loss to Washington.

“Once we started being aggressive and attacking the rim, we got to the foul line, and we have got to continue to do that.”

In its first matchup against Washington, Arizona’s senior captain, Davellyn Whyte, led the Wildcats with what was her second double-double of the season, scoring 17 points and grabbing 10 rebounds.

Arizona also had contributions that day from junior guard/forward Kama Griffitts, who scored 10 points and had four steals in the Wildcats’ 11 point loss. Griffitts missed four consecutive games for Arizona due to personal reasons but returned for the game against UCLA. Sophomore Layana White started in Griffitts’ absence and hasn’t given up the starting role since she was inserted on Jan. 11 against Oregon State.

In her six games as a starter, White has averaged 6.8 points, but she didnt score against USC. Since her return, Griffitts has averaged 33 minutes coming off the bench and has scored an average of 16 points per game.

Both White and Griffitts will be expected to be aggressive and help the Wildcats improve in the Pac-12 standings Friday night. The Wildcats are currently in seventh place in the conference, four games behind Pac-12 leader Stanford (18-2, 7-1).

“We need to get back to playing our style — defensively,” Butts said.
