Sen. Jeff Flake, UA President Ann Weaver Hart and a panel of water conservation experts planned for Arizona water conservation at the Water Policy Forum on campus on Friday.

“We are told that there’s a good chance that by 2018, we will start to see the shortage declaration along the Colorado River,” Flake said. “It actually could come sooner than that.”

Flake said Arizona is not in crisis right now, but when the state is in long-term drought, it will have to plan.

“The University of Arizona’s faculty has a long-standing and world-leading expertise in water and arid land studies that uniquely positions the University of Arizona to address these supply challenges,” Hart said, “and to help our colleague community forge solutions that will benefit all Arizonans and citizens of the United States and around the world.”

She added that Flake cares deeply about how Arizona manages its water supply and how the policy on supply affects the lives of Arizonans.

“We very much appreciate the senator taking this time out of his incredibly busy schedule and for his focus and leadership on these critical issues,” Hart said.

Marie Pearthree, deputy general manager for the Central Arizona Water Conservation District and strategic initiatives and public policy deputy general manager for the Central Arizona Project, said the Colorado River provides drinking water to about 40 million people and

Cheba Hut’s closing in early December came as a shock to many who thought it appeared to be doing a lot of business.

“I was really surprised,” said Kevin Croneigh, a sophomore studying biomedical engineering and German. “I felt like every time I was there, it was really busy and they had good business.”

On April 4, Cheba Hut reopened its doors under new management, and even though it has not officially reopened yet, business is going great, according to Rabbit, the new manager.

Rabbit said business has been “insanely busy” and said he feels like the closing in December has helped with current business.

“You take it away, and once you are like, ‘Hey guys, we are [reopened],’” Rabbit said, “then everyone wants to get their fix again.”

A customer favorite at the Sixth Street location is the “White Widow,” which is “chicken breast smothered in our signature, home-grown ranch dressing, topped with mushrooms, bacon and provolone,” according to the Cheba Hut menu.

Since it is under new management, new ideas will mix with old Cheba Hut traditions.

Smoothie Factory serving healthy alternatives

BY BRANDI WALKER The Daily Wildcat

The Smoothie Factory opened a new location near the UA campus, providing students with a new healthy alternative.

John Wilfert, Smoothie Factory owner, said the new Park Avenue store is a merger of Smoothie Factory and Red Mango Yogurt Cafe and Juice Bar under the

company BRIX Holdings.

“It’s to create a healthy lifestyle for people so that they can have not only healthy food choices — because we’ll offer wraps, salads and flatbreads — but also we have a probiotic yogurt,” Wilfert said. “We have also, really healthy nutritional smoothies and supplements. We offer all the sports and nutritional supplements at the lowest price

guaranteed in town.”

Marissa Ray, a Smoothie Factory employee at the new location, said Smoothie Factory has a variety of products, including pre- and post-workout supplements, protein-packed healthy snacks, BCAAs, vitamins, fat burners, and creatine.

Ray said she is constantly learning about all the new supplements, in addition to how

the body works and processes.

She said she loves that she gets to pass along this information and advice when people come into the store and ask questions.

“When we first opened, a lot of people had never been here before,” Ray said. “We still have a lot of people who are coming in for the first time, but I’m starting to notice regulars now.

Overall, the paint has changed, but the menu remains the same.

“Same menu as before, but we will be getting some new secret stashes,” Rabbit said.

The restaurant will also add a new featured sandwich unique to its location, which Rabbit said is “a plus about reopening the store.”

“We get to make up new sandwiches to give to people,”

he said.

Kassidi Rettkowski, a former employee and biology sophomore, said she plans on working there again because it was a fun work environment.

“Since they remodeled the inside, it will be nicer looking,” Rettkowski said, “but I think it’s going to be basically the same.”

It seems Cheba Hut will continue on like it never left in the first place. It is carrying all the sandwiches people love and missed for a few months.

“I think their business will be

The official grand opening event will take place April 20.

“We are going to have bands, DJs — we will probably have a dunk tank,” Rabbit said. There will also be giveaways and raffles at the party.

Father, son find dinosaur fossil TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE

MANSFIELD, Texas — Not every kid can say he made the discovery of a lifetime before he started kindergarten. Wylie Brys can.

The then-4-year-old from southeast Arlington was searching for fish fossils in Mansfield with his dad, Tim, last fall when the preschooler came back with a bone that has excited even seasoned paleontologists from Southern Methodist University.

The 3-inch chunk turned out to be part of a nodosaur, a 94-million-year-old dinosaur that looked like a “fat, squatty cow with armor,” said Michael Polcyn, an SMU paleontologist.

The scientists were initially skeptical about what they would find on the construction site near the new Sprouts Farmers Market less than 100 yards from busy Matlock Road.

They thought the bone was probably from a plesiosaur, which “we have all over the Metroplex,” SMU paleontologist Dale Winkler said.

“We were not expecting to find much of it,” Winkler said. “It looked like the bones had been spread around. We started digging and one bone connected to another bone that connected to another bone that connected to another bone.”

The paleontologists, along with volunteers from the Dallas Paleontological Society, started digging April 3 and unearthed “more than 50 percent” of the nodosaur, one of only five ever found in the Metroplex and the first in decades.

An adult, a baby and a skull were found in Fort Worth, and a few bones were found near Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport, but none since the 1990s, Winkler said.

And this find is the most complete of all, said SMU paleontologist Louis Jacobs, author

of “Lone Star Dinosaurs.”

“Much of the skeleton is there,” Jacobs said.

“We don’t know how much. We took out legs, the backbone and ribs.”

Winkler, Polcyn and members of the paleontological society pulled out most of the body Monday, then uncovered a thighbone Wednesday morning in the thick red clay about a yard from the original find.

“We didn’t think anything else was in there,” Winkler said. “We assumed there weren’t any more bones because there’s a [utility] trench dug on the other side of the bones. A couple of feet to the left and it would have been bad.”

The paleontologists wrapped the bones,

which were protected by the rock areas, in plaster and moved the 6-foot-by-3-foot, 18-inch-thick Australia-shaped lump to Jacobs’ lab at SMU, where they will take the skeleton apart, clean the bones and reconstruct what they can of the dinosaur.

The scientists say they probably won’t know why the nodosaur died, but they already know how, just from where it was found.

“Ever see an armadillo on the side of the road?” Polcyn asked. “He blew up like that and floated out to sea.”

Nodosaurs were kind of the armadillos of the dinosaur world short, squatty and covered in armored plates with a soft underbelly. The

Hillary Clinton to run for president again in 2016 TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE

WASHINGTON — Hillary Rodham Clinton announced Sunday that she is running for president, launching her campaign with a video on her website that replaced months of hints with a declaration that started the campaign on a populist note.

“Americans have fought their way back from tough economic times,” Clinton said in the video, “but the deck is still stacked in favor of those at the top. … I am hitting the road to earn your vote.”

The widely anticipated announcement began Clinton’s second run for the White House. The former secretary of state is expected to face not only token opposition for the Democratic nomination, but what is likely to be a close-fought general election as the Democrats seek to win the White House for a third consecutive term.

The launch frees Clinton to start courting voters in states that hold early primaries, as well as to aggressively raise money.

Her travel schedule includes visits to Iowa and New Hampshire over the next few days.

Unlike in 2008, when she faced high-profile opponents, most viable rivals for the nomination have stepped aside for Clinton this time, an unusual gesture for a candidate who

is not a sitting president or vice president, and a sign of Clinton’s political potency.

Polls so far have shown overwhelming support for her amongst Democrats.

Democrats hope that a lack of serious opposition within the party will enable Clinton to head into the general election with a clear advantage, absent the damaging political bruises that tough primaries often leave. The relative unity among Democrats allows Clinton from the start to look for themes that will motivate the party’s supporters, while appealing to less partisan voters who can be crucial toward winning a general election.

But there is also danger in an easy path to the nomination. The nominee Republicans pick will have been battle-tested and vetted by an intraparty race against several well-funded opponents. Clinton will likely not have that oftenvaluable dress rehearsal, which can afford a nominee opportunities to falter and recalibrate while the stakes are lower.

As Clinton prepared to launch her campaign, advisers emphasized that she would not take any votes for granted. They are eager to avoid the missteps the candidate made in the 2008 race. In that primary, she entered the race as the clear favorite but proved less successful at connecting with voters compared

COURTESY OF U.S. DEPARTMENT OF STATE

to Barack Obama, who ultimately bested her.

Clinton built that campaign around her impressive credentials in public service, arguing that no other candidate could match her experience as a U.S. senator and first lady.

However, she miscalculated how voters would perceive her, and struggled to make a personal connection to overcome some voters’ perception that she felt entitled to the nomination.

Clinton is expected to address the shortcomings of her 2008 campaign by focusing heavily on the parts of her biography less familiar to voters, particularly her modest upbringing.

Democratic strategists are also looking for the campaign to put more emphasis this time on Clinton’s potential to make history as the first female president — a big selling point with many voters, particularly women.

reptiles — unrelated to today’s mammalian armadillos — were vegetarians and about the size of a small horse, Jacobs said.

The bones were found in what was then the Western Interior Seaway, an extension of the Gulf of Mexico. Fossils of fish scales and bones were found all around the nodosaur.

Although Wylie found the first bone last fall, the paleontologists couldn’t start digging until recently after receiving permission from the landowner and acquiring insurance on the dig. The landowners, whose family has farmed the area for more than a century, have donated the bones to SMU, Winkler said.

The top of the hillside, just west of Sprouts, had been scraped by a grader during construction of the store and washed by the rain, Tim Brys said. Several bones were lying on top of the ground, he said. He reburied them and made note of the area.

The only one who seems unimpressed by the rare discovery is the boy who made it.

Asked whether he would rather find dinosaur bones or dig in the dirt, Wylie didn’t hesitate: “Dig in the dirt.”

“Wylie hasn’t said a whole lot about it,” Tim Brys said. “I don’t think that he gets this is a once-in-a-lifetime thing. I think when he found the first fish vertebra, he was pleased that I was pleased that he recognized it.”

While Winkler calls the Mansfield nodosaur “Beach Ball,” Wylie has his own name for his dinosaur, Ralphie, for another reptile, his favorite Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle, Raphael.

The father and son plan to keep digging for fossils, Brys said.

“I can’t guarantee we’ll find another dinosaur, but we’ll keep looking,” he said.

California drought creating controversy TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE

As the months have worn on, drier and drier but for the very occasional gift from above, it has been hard to avoid a looming civil war in California over a common enemy: the drought.

Loosely, the battle is between ideologically and culturally opposite coastal and inland residents. Specifically, it is between city dwellers and those in the state’s farm belt, separated by mountain ranges but, more than that, a yawning canyon of misunderstanding.

Last week, like an almost invisible white flag waving for peace on the battleground, came a radio ad over the airwaves in Southern California, the state’s largest urban market. It was meant to calm things down before everyone does what they always do: go to their corners convinced that they are right.

Like all ads, it was a mix of truth and what the ad-maker hopes to be true.

The hope-to-be-true part? That Gov. Jerry Brown in his new drought rules was asking city residents “to think about how they can reduce the water they use.”

Nope, it’s actually a bit more punitive than that, with cutbacks ranging well into the double digits for local agencies, with fines attached.

But the more altruistic and accurate part of the ad, aired by the California Farm Water Coalition, was its effort to educate those who shower and water their lawns with abandon about the toll the drought already has taken on the vast and now stunningly dry Central Valley.

“In farm country, where hundreds of thousands of acres have already been shut down because of the drought, thousands have lost their jobs,” the narrator said.

“For those who can’t afford to feed their families anymore, the local food banks are struggling to keep up with demand.”

The ad noted that dealing with the drought is nothing new for farmers, beset for years by scarcity and skyrocketing water prices. (A separate coalition report, titled “Food Grows Where Water Flows,” pointed out that almost 42 percent of irrigated farmland saw their water supply cut deeply this year.)

One line was both abundantly true,

and given California’s fractured politics, almost laughably optimistic: “We’re all in this drought together.”

Since Brown announced his water plan on April Fools’ Day, some have argued that it didn’t propose much hardship for agriculture, which uses most of the state’s water apart from requiring more data to be compiled. Questions have roared: Should farmers grow only water-stingy crops? Are almonds too wasteful to grow?

Who gets to decide?

Brown indicated sympathy with the farmers’ long-standing suffering at the hands of Mother Nature, and suffering there is.

The great Central Valley sells far more than $40 billion in crops yearly, making California the biggest ag state in the nation. It provides more than a third of the country’s vegetables and two-thirds of its fruits and nuts. It is the only producer, to speak of, of 15 types of fruits and vegetables — the biggest in income being the almond. Therein lies the irony: One of the reasons the almond is so popular is that it is so profitable, providing more money to pay for increasing water bills.

If not awash in water, however, the Valley is awash in unemployment and poverty. On the federal Bureau of Labor Statistics’ unemployment map, the counties in the biggest trouble are shaded a deep blue— the color of water.

All of the state’s big agricultural counties are deep blue.

Among urban counties, the jobless rate in February was 7.7 percent in Los Angeles; in San Francisco, it was 3.8 percent; in Alameda, Calif., 5 percent; and in San Diego, 5.3 percent.

Fresno County, the state’s biggest farm county, had a jobless rate of 11.6 percent, and every ag county was in double digits: Imperial County at 20 percent; Kern County 11 at percent; Tulare County at 13.4 percent; Merced County at 13.5 percent. In February, there were 30,000 fewer ag jobs than a year earlier.

Residents describe a rippling riot of failure: As farmlands go fallow because of lack of water, full-time jobs turn into parttime, part-time to nothing at all. Food prices go up for everyone everywhere.

Poorlypaid pilots a problem

BY TREY ROSS

The Daily Wildcat

E

very time I enter the airport, I get a slight twinge of anxiety. The irony is that I love to travel, but there is still something about being in a giant tin can in the sky that scares me.

It’s unnatural, and due to an unhealthy obsession with reading about aviation disasters, I’ve educated myself far too much on the small details that could cause my demise in the air.

After the Germanwings accident this spring, reports leaked that Andreas Lubitz may have intentionally crashed the plane due to depression and a host of other issues. How was someone who clearly needed help put in the cockpit?

That is a loaded question.

The answer has a lot to do with money.

In 2009, Colgain Air Flight 3407 crashed outside of Buffalo, New York.

After investigating the crash that killed everyone on board and one on the ground, it was decided that this regional airline tragedy was caused by pilot error.

The cockpit transcript showed the final minutes of conversation between First Officer Rebecca Shaw and Captain Marvin Renslow. Renslow explained how he was hired after only flying a little over 600 hours, and Shaw revealed she’d never seen icy conditions before flying. She was the first officer of a regional jet in the Northeast.

Do these airlines hire pilots with less experience so that they don’t need to pay them as much?

Michael Moore delved into this subject in his documentary, “Capitalism: A Love Story.” He used the example of declining pilot wages to demonstrate how many salaries in America have been slashed, illustrating the decay of the middle class.

Moore interviewed one pilot who was only paid $17,000 in a year and was eligible to eat on food stamps.

He profiled another pilot who had a second job as a dog walker.

The last person you would ever want to be tired from their second job is your pilot.

Jessamyn Schaller, assistant professor for the UA Department of Economics, helped explain the economics of capitalism and economic inequality.

Schaller said she believes economic inequality is a tricky subject because it can be both productive and unproductive.

“Inequality itself isn’t necessarily a bad thing for the economy if it reflects that some workers have more skills, have invested more in education or are more productive,” Schaller said.

She added that most people wouldn’t want to live in a society where effort and ability were not rewarded. However, “there has been some economic research showing that people that live in unequal societies are less happy.”

Living in a country that thrives on the idea of the “American Dream” — making it big so you can drive fancy cars, go to fancy schools and eat fancy dinners — creates a lot of that gray area.

The offspring of the 1 percent are given the upper hand because of their better connections, while others are unable to live up to their potential because they don’t have access to the same health and education opportunities. A famous 2014 study presented at the Federal Reserve Bank of Boston’s annual conference found that rich kids who dropped out of high school had the same chance of ending up in the top 20 percent as poor kids who graduate college.

The free market has created a freefor-all for executives to pay themselves more and their employees less.

The Wall Street Journal published an article titled “Pilot Pay: Want to Know How Much Your Captain Earns?” in which it compared the salaries of different companies that employ pilots.

While Southwest, UPS and FedEx pay the most, on average, the starting salary at any major airline is a little more than $36,000.

This amount is double what a regional airline pilot will receive on their pay stub.

At the end of the day, you can calculate your probability of dying in a plane crash from any number of reasons — but others are unquantifiable.

So, next time you start planning a trip, maybe you should research your airlines a little bit more. I know no one would want his or her pilot to be paid less than a Taco Bell manager.

Arizona, California must band together on water savings

BY MADDY BYNES The Daily Wildcat

C

limate change has morphed our way of life in almost every corner of the world. One place that is seeing the substantial effects of climate change is California.

At the beginning of the month, Gov. Edmund Brown stood atop a hill with brown grass — usually covered in snow — to proclaim restrictions on water for the state of California.

The drought is not California’s alone. Arizona has been in an extended drought as well, but California is seeing the most direct impact at this time. In fact, the drought has become so severe that, in January of last year, Brown declared a state of emergency.

This isn’t just California’s issue, though. California is a major producer of food for the entire country. The state produces 90 percent of the nation’s wine, 69 percent of carrots, 71 percent of spinach and 89 percent of cauliflower.

It’s safe to say that without California’s rich agricultural community, the U.S. food industry would suffer.

This is typical across

the Southwest. In Arizona, agriculture is a substantial portion of the state’s economy.

According to the Arizona Farm Bureau, agriculture contributes more than $17 billion to the state’s economy.

Agriculture also uses a majority of the water supply to the state, around 80 percent, according to Martha Whitaker, assistant research scientist and undergraduate coordinator for the Department of Hydrology and Water Resources at the UA. The leadership in environmentalism that California’s newest moves display is not uncommon, according to Whitaker.

“California has been a leader in environmental regulation,” she said in reference to California’s actions against smog in the 1970s. “A lot of times, the U.S. EPA tends to follow suit.”

Arizona will soon be in the same situation as California, and unlike California, we can learn from the mistakes of our peers. Environmental issues do not have to be considered only during a crisis. Southwestern states need to plan for

impending drought and water supply management.

Just like California, Arizona’s major reservoirs are already suffering. Lake Mead and Lake Powell are well over 100 feet below their peak and declining, both around 40 percent capacity.

According to a panel that discussed the Colorado River at the UA on Friday — hosted

by Sen. Jeff Flake and President Ann Weaver Hart — by 2018, there will be a “Call on the River.”

This means the state will shut off water to the Central Arizona Project, which supplies water to both Tucson and Phoenix.

California will be impacted as well.

It is important that states in the Southwest, especially those in the Colorado’s Lower Basin, band together to conserve water supplies.

“The major thing [that we can do] is planning,” Whitaker said. “Planning for the future, planning for economic growth, planning for a growing population.”

Tucson has the lowest use of water in the Southwest

But even more than planning, Whitaker said conservation is personal, and doing small things like turning off the tap while brushing your teeth collectively makes a big impact. Or, as Brown’s Executive Order promotes, we can xeriscape our yards instead of growing lawns. Xeriscaping is the practice of using native plants that naturally consume less water in landscaping.

Though agriculture uses a majority of state water, it’s useful to know that everyone can make a difference at home.

Tucson has the lowest use of water in the Southwest, using only 90 gallons per capita per day, while Scottsdale is among the worst water users, using 165 gallons per capita per day.

We are past the old adage, “Think global, act local.” We must think as collective regions to save our water. California is acting as a pioneer in the Southwest, and hopefully many more states will follow its lead before we all succumb to the collective fate of seeing our taps run dry.

Letter to the Editor Most of us who are behind this letter are alumni of the UA. All of us are former members of Faith Christian Church.

Among our number are people who experienced spiritual, emotional and psychological abuse at FCC during the 1980s, 1990s, 2000s and 2010s. We represent just the tip of the iceberg of the number of people who have been hurt by FCC. We are writing to express our heartfelt gratitude to the wider UA community that is beginning to listen to our stories.

About five years ago, a Facebook page (Former Members of Faith Christian Church Tucson and Its Offshoots) was created in order to provide a place for former members of FCC and its offshoots to reconnect, to be informed, and to find healing and a way to forgive. As the page took on a life of its own, we recognized that it is an excellent vehicle for exposing the past and ongoing abuses at FCC. Our Facebook page has come to serve three distinct groups of people.

First of all, we want former members to realize that they are not the only ones who have been hurt by this church. Often, former members feel extremely isolated once they leave, because during their time in FCC, they cut off their relationships

with friends outside the church. Also, when they leave, they are shunned by current members. Furthermore, due to the brainwashing that occurs in the church, former members feel like they have committed some grievous sin by leaving and that their eternal salvation is in danger.

We want former members to realize that they are not alone. They are not going crazy. They are not going to Hell for simply leaving this abusive church. Many former members have found deep healing by reconnecting with other former members.

Secondly, we want current members who are beginning to recognize red flags in their experiences at FCC to realize that there is life beyond FCC. There are many healthy Christian churches that are safe places for believers to experience the love of God through Jesus Christ and his followers. Current members need to know that it is possible to leave FCC and still be pleasing to God. Thirdly, we want students at the UA who may come across FCC’s recruiters to be able to search for information about FCC and find our stories. We believe strongly that students should stay away from FCC in order to be spared potential years of abuse. There are many other Christian

organizations on campus where students can learn about the Bible and find a deeper relationship with God in a healthy environment.

Recently, the Arizona Daily Star reported on the abuse that we experienced at FCC. Because of this coverage, the UA Dean’s office has opened an investigation into FCC and what can officially be done to protect students. Also, the University Religious Council recently voted to revoke FCC’s membership on the council. This week, ASUA will hear from a former student body senator who is also a former member of FCC. We are so thankful that these groups are giving serious attention to our stories and our warning of abuse at FCC. The actions of the UA community in response to our stories have given us a deep sense of validation and have gone a long way in helping further the healing process for us.

Thank you, and bear down!

POLICE BEAT

BY AMBER WHITE

The Daily Wildcat

“Look out!”

On March 26, a University of Arizona Police Department officer received a report about a collision on campus near Palm Drive and Second Street between a skateboarding UA student and a CatTran at 3:46 p.m.

The officer asked the student if he was injured or needed medical attention. The man said his lower back was sore and felt strained, but he was going to “wait another day to see if it gets better.”

The student said he was riding his skateboard in the bike lane on Second Street, and as he rode by Palm Avenue, the CatTran was trying to turn right. He didn’t have enough time to stop or slow down and ended up putting his arms out, which hit the left front side of the bus. The student couldn’t turn his skateboard in another direction, because he didn’t want to cross the streetcar tracks. When he “ran out” from his skateboard, it prevented him from crashing into the ground.

The CatTran driver said, “Sorry I didn’t see you.”

The student couldn’t get the bus’ license plate number or any other information from him, because he drove away while the student was trying to get his skateboard.

The student said he remembers slowing down at the intersection when seeing the CatTran driving toward the stop sign. He thought the driver saw him, so he “gave another push” on the skateboard and increased his speed.

The driver told his supervisor that he had not seen a skateboarder crossing the intersection when trying to make a right-hand turn.

The officer contacted the driver, who described the intersection as being crowded with a lot of pedestrians. He said he waited a while at the intersection for people to cross, but they eventually stopped and let him turn. As the bus started to move, a person yelled, “Look out!” and he stopped as fast as he could.

The driver saw that a man with a light colored shirt and light brown hair had run into the driver’s side front corner but did not see a skateboard. He then claimed the man went toward the back of the bus, and he didn’t know where the person went, so he just continued his route onto Second Street. The driver and the student had no other details to provide or questions during this time.

Mobile smoke shop

A 2000 gold Chevrolet Impala was stopped by a UAPD officer in the alley near the Esquire Apartments on March 22 at 9:06 p.m. The non-UA-affiliated driver’s vehicle smelled of marijuana.

The officer asked him if there was any marijuana in the vehicle, and he said, “Not that I know of.”

When other officers arrived on the scene, he admitted to using marijuana and smoking it in the vehicle at some point. The driver told one of the officers that a pipe was located in the vehicle behind the passenger seat. The search turned up a blue pipe, an orange pipe and glass jar with marijuana odor in the center console of the vehicle, and a small jar of marijuana in the rear pocket of the passenger seat.

Marijuana leaves and stems were also covering the front driver’s seat and the center console. He admitted that all the items belonged to him but forgot he had the orange pipe; he said he thought he left the jars at home. The man said he was a regular marijuana smoker.

The man was cited and released for possession of marijuana and possession of paraphernalia. All the items were put into UAPD Property and Evidence.

Spring ends on high note

BY ROBERTO PAYNE The Daily Wildcat

For the first time since the Fiesta Bowl, fans were able to watch the Arizona football team in action on Friday night in the annual Spring Game.

Arizona defeated the Wildcats 96-68 in a scrimmage with modified scoring rules that lasted 100 plays. Arizona football coach Rich Rodriguez then reached out to fans as they were allowed to call a handful of plays.

“I wanted to get 90-100 plays, and we had 100 plays exactly — until the fans took over,” Rodriguez said. “I saw some good, saw some ugly, but I think they had a little fun. We had a good crowd, and we got a lot of things we can build off of.”

Starting quarterback Anu Solomon saw the majority of the snaps and finished 19-25 for 175 yards and two touchdowns, despite seeing consistent pressure.

The offensive line struggled at times, but Solomon said he’s more comfortable with them, especially tackle Freddie Tagaloa, as spring football ends.

“I am much more comfortable,” Solomon said. “When you add Freddie in there, he plays a huge part in the offense. He gives us a lot of time on my backside, and that really gives the quarterback more enjoyable situations.”

The skill players reaped the benefits of Solomon’s comfort level.

Jared Baker took advantage of his opportunity, with starting running back Nick Wilson out, to the tune of two touchdowns and 36 yards on eight carries.

Wide receivers Cayleb Jones and David Richards each hauled in a touchdown.

Tight ends show out

Arizona’s tight ends hauled in 11 passes on Friday night. To put that into perspective, that’s 11 more than all of last season.

For those who aren’t math

majors, that means a tight end did not record a catch last season.

Wide receiver Austin Hill shifted inside to tight end last season and received the majority of looks at the position.

Friday night saw Solomon target his tight ends early and often, with Josh Kern leading the scrimmage with five receptions.

Matt Morin, Trevor Wood and Darrell Cloy Jr. weren’t far behind, as the trio combined for six receptions.

The group’s versatility was a talking point after the game.

“They bring a lot to the table,” Solomon said.

“Obviously, I’m surrounded with talent all around me, and, you know, as a

quarterback, you want that so you can spread that all around.”

Rodriguez joked that Kern’s three catches on the opening drive were more than any tight end in Arizona history.

“That was more catches by a tight end in the history of Arizona football, maybe even with [former Wildcat tight end and current New England Patriot Rob Gronkowski] was here,” Rodriguez said. “Gronk could look at that and say, ‘Wow, what’s happening?’”

“A

rizona basketball never stops” is just a marketing slogan, but weeks after the Wildcats’ season ended, they’re still very active.

Already armed with the No. 3 recruiting class, as of Sunday, the Wildcats could soon take a huge step toward another Elite Eight with a five-star recruit deciding today, as two 2015 starters are reportedly considering returning to the UA instead of going pro, and a high profile transfer is picking a new school soon.

Ivan Rabb, a 6-foot-11, 210-pound, five-star power forward from Oakland, Calif., will choose between California, Arizona, Kansas, Kentucky and UCLA tonight at 7 p.m.

Cal was thought to be the front runner, but Rabb has continued to delay his decision, which has given hope to Arizona faithfuls. Then, Indiana’s Mr. Basketball, Caleb Swanigan, chose Michigan State over Cal. He and Rabb were thought to be a package deal to Cal. In the meantime, UA signee Allonzo Trier has been recruiting Rabb.

Trier tweeted a photo of him and Rabb at practice for the Nike Hoop Summit, saying “Waiting for Ivan to BearDown with me” with red and blue circle emojis.

Arizona forward Stanley Johnson, who CBS reported is “torn” on whether to enter the draft or return for his sophomore season, Johnson declared the Wildcats would be back in the Elite Eight sooner rather than later, while players like senior point guard T.J. McConnell and forward Brandon Ashley cried during interviews after the season ended.

Johnson has kept busy, winning the inaugural Julius Erving Small Forward of the Year Award on

ARIZONA MEN’S basketball forward Stanley Johnson (5) jogs onto the court before Arizona’s 73-58 win against Ohio State in the third round of the NCAA Tournament at the Moda Center in Portland, Ore., on March 21. Between recruiting and potential early entrants to the 2015 NBA Draft, next week will be huge for Arizona basketball.

Friday night.

Trier, meanwhile, missed a game-winning 3-pointer in Team USA’s 103-101 loss to the World Team in the Nike Hoop Summit on Saturday. He had 11 points and two assists.

Trier also led the West in scoring at the McDonald’s All-American game.

He could get help in the UA backcourt with one of the most coveted transfers, Damion Lee. Lee narrowed the list down to his top five teams on Sunday in alphabetical order: Arizona, Gonzaga, Louisville, Marquette and Maryland. Lee is a shooting guard from Drexel University and averaged 21.4 points per game last season, tied for the fourth highest in Division I. Arizona picked up Ryan Anderson, an All-ACC player at Boston College, and Kadeem Allen, 2014 JUCO Player of the Year, in the transfer market last offseason.

They both appear to be in line for pivotal roles in Arizona’s rotation

next season.

Anderson had to sit out this season as an undergraduate transfer, and Allen chose to redshirt — so both of them are like a part of Arizona’s 2015 recruiting class.

Lee is supposed to graduate in June, so he will be eligible to play next season, much like Mark Lyons in 2012-2013.

While the Wildcats already lost forward Rondae Hollis-Jefferson and Ashley to the NBA Draft, the early rumors that they would lose all five 2014-2015 starters seem premature.

Multiple reports have said Kaleb Tarczewski has decided to return to school, but Tucson.com reported that a mentor of the 7-footer said he hasn’t made up his mind yet.

If the Wildcats keep Zeus and get Rabb, they will have a front court reminiscent of the Monstars from “Space Jam,” with four players over 6-foot-10 and two 7-footers.

It wasn’t the weekend the No. 24 Arizona baseball team wanted as it lost the series against No. 9 ASU in Tempe.

Arizona (22-11, 7-7 Pac-12 Conference) lost to ASU (23-9, 11-3 Pac-12) 13-7 on Sunday.

The Wildcats lost their last series and are now in the midst of a five-game losing streak.

Designated hitter Michael Hoard tried to get a rally going for Arizona in the ninth inning by singling home a run, and outfielder Zach Gibbons drove the last run in with a sacrifice fly, but the Wildcats fell short.

Arizona had to go through seven pitchers on the night, and that still wasn’t enough to stop the Sun Devils’ bats.

Instead of Robby Medel, it was Xavier Borde who started the second weekend game and took the loss, making it his first loss of the season.

Borde didn’t finish an inning before allowing four runs on three hits in the first inning.

That’s where it all went downhill for Arizona, as no pitcher could stop ASU from getting hits.

Austin Schnabel, Medel, Matt Hartman, Cameron Ming, Mathew Troupe and Rio Gomez were the other pitching contributors.

Offensively for Arizona, the team collected 14 hits on the night, and ASU recorded 16.

ASU was led by Colby Woodmansee as he went 3-for-4 at the plate, contributing with four RBIs and three runs scored.

The Sun Devils used just two of their pitchers with Ryan Kellogg getting the start and pitching 5.2 innings, allowing 10 hits and five runs.

Eric Melbostad, who pitched 3.1 innings, allowed two runs on four hits and was ASU’s final pitcher to take the series.

Offense leads Arizona to series win

BY Ezra Amacher The Daily Wildcat

Arizona softball won two out of three games to earn a home series victory against Washington over the weekend.

The No. 16 Wildcats led with an offensive attack that produced 40 runs over the series.

“The Pac-12 [Conference] is so strong that you have to be on your toes every single pitch,” Arizona shortstop Kellie Fox said. “We have to put those runs up and string them together.”

The UA won the first game of the series handedly, mercy-ruling the No. 18 Huskies 14-6 in five innings.

Arizona (33-10, 8-4 Pac-12) struck for 10 runs in the opening inning, including a three-run homer from Katiyana Mauga and a Chelsea Suitos grand slam. The grand slam was Suitos’ first career home run.

“I honestly didn’t know it was out, because I don’t know what that feels like,” Suitos said. “It didn’t sink in until I got bombarded by my teammates at home.”

Washington answered in the top of the third by scoring six runs off Arizona starter Michelle Floyd, although only two of the runs were earned. The Wildcats committed a pair of errors that fostered the Huskies’ rally.

Trish Parks relieved Floyd with one out in the inning, and went on to pitch a scoreless 2 2/3 frames.

Arizona added a pair of runs in the fourth inning off a two-out double from Hallie Wilson. Mandie Perez and Mo Mercado singled in the walkoff run to induce a mercy-rule victory

in the fifth inning.

The Wildcats looked to be in control for a series victory on Saturday night, but a late Washington comeback gave the Huskies a 9-8 win.

Washington got on the scoreboard early with solo home runs off Floyd in the first and second innings.

However, the Wildcats responded in the bottom of the second with a five-run rally, highlighted by a threerun shot from Wilson that put the UA up 5-2.

The lead remained the same heading into the fourth when Parks relieved Floyd on the mound. Parks then allowed a single run in the fourth and another run in the fifth.

Parks was taken out of the game with two outs in the fifth due to an apparent injury, and Floyd reentered the game.

Arizona scored three runs in the bottom half of the fifth to expand the lead to four, but that didn’t turn out to be enough.

Washington hit a pair of two-run homers, while down 8-4 in the sixth inning, to tie the game before scoring the go-ahead run with a single in the seventh inning.

The Wildcats tried to answer in the bottom of seventh, but Suitos grounded out to end the game with runners on second and third.

Arizona coach Mike Candrea said he did not know the full extent of Parks’ injury but indicated it was minor.

“I think it’s just sore and almost like a muscle spasm,” Candrea said.

“They’ll work on it [Monday], and hopefully she’ll get a chance to toss a

guys as much, because we know what they can do.”

Paul Magloire Jr. and Marcus Griffin took advantage of that and made big plays all around the field.

Griffin nearly had a defensive touchdown, and Magloire Jr. led the team with nine total tackles.

“Overall, we found some guys that we need to get in our rotation,” Rodriguez said, “and hopefully they’ll work hard this summer and be ready in August.”

On Sunday, the Wildcats outscored Washington 18-10 in a six-inning win that featured at least one hit from every batter in the Arizona lineup.

The UA broke things open early with a five-run second inning that included home runs from Mauga and Fox. The Wildcats capitalized on some poor Washington pitching in the third inning to rally for nine runs. Arizona hit three RBI singles, scored on a walk and a wild pitch, and received a two-

Switching the Spring Game from Saturday to Friday night had a seemingly positive effect on everyone, from fans to players and coaches. After the game, Rodriguez said he would like to keep the game on Friday nights.

“I like the Friday night deal. …

Obviously we have Spring Fling going on, good crowd, it’s a little bit cooler for our fans,” Rodriguez said. “So, I hope we can continue to do it. The [Pac-12 Networks] was very cooperative of getting it on TV there, so I think it’s all a win-win for us.”

A 15-2 lead going into the fourth inning would usually make for a comfortable cushion, but Washington answered back with an eight run frame to cut the deficit to 15-10.

That was the closest the Huskies would come to mounting another comeback.

further damage.

“I thought [Phillips] did good,” Candrea said. “She kept them off balance for a while, and it’s good to see, but we’re going to definitely need her the rest of the year.”

The Wildcats return to action on Friday when they travel to Utah for a three-game series.

Ming stepped on the mound after Bannister and loaded up the bases after facing the top of ASU’s lineup.

ASU’s Johnny Sewald was walked, and then the Devils were able to thank Jake Peevyhouse for delivering a pitch to right field that gave ASU the victory.

Peevyhouse also hit his first home run of the season when facing Arizona’s Cody Hamlin.

Arizona men’s tennis wrapped up its home court matches by competing against Oregon and Washington. Unfortunately for the Wildcats, they could not get it done as they fell to Oregon on Friday, 4-1, and Washington on Sunday, 4-0.

The team played exceptionally well on Friday, despite the loss, but just weren’t able to gain a victory.

“I thought they were great; we played shorthanded, our No. 1 guy is out, our No. 2 guy is out,” Arizona men’s tennis coach Tad Berkowitz said. “All of them played two spots higher than they would normally be playing. It is a credit to them to do what they have done.”

The team’s only point on Friday was from junior Jason Jaruvang, as he won in two sets 6-2 and 7-5.

“What I really focused on was staying in the match,” Jaruvang said. “I just really tried to play my own game, just not missing. I mean, it is tough because all the other courts were losing, but all the guys were fighting. … I just focused on my match.”

Jaruvang did not have to change his game to make it match that of his opponent, but he did start to lose focus during the second set.

“When I was down, I just started more focusing on, ‘I can’t lose to this kid,’” he said. “I killed him the first set. I just needed to do what I did the first set.”

Jaruvang and his doubles partner, junior Matt Dunn, strived to get the doubles point on court two, even though their teammates could

not get it done on courts one and three.

“It came down to a couple points here and there and for us just make sure that we’re going after it and going for it and just not being hesitant,” Berkowitz said.

Injured junior Naoki Takeda woke up and decided he wanted to play on Sunday, and Berkowitz trusted his judgment.

Takeda, ranked No. 56, played on court one and lost his first set 6-4 and was ahead 2-1 in the second set when the match was called unfinished.

Takeda had injured his swinging arm and said he felt sore after playing. “[I was] so rusty, but I was happy to be back on the court,” Takeda said.

The Arizona women’s tennis team traveled to play Washington and Oregon and could not pull out a victory. The No. 45 Wildcats lost to No. 50 Washington 6-1 and Oregon 4-3, rendering Arizona’s chances of making the Pac12 Conference tournament very slim. The pair of senior Briar Preston and junior Shayne Austin are ranked No. 23 and got yet another win.

The doubles play was not easy for either team as senior Laura Oldham and freshman Devin Chypyha lost 8-7.

In singles, No. 83 Preston defeated Grace Ysidora in three sets, winning 6-4, 2-6, and 10-3.

The men’s team will head to Salt Lake City to take on Utah on Saturday, while the women head to Tempe to face ASU on Friday.

Wags, washes for charity

BY VICTORIA TEPLITZ The Daily Wildcat

It’s a cloudy day as Yukon, a rescued husky, steps into the shower arena created in front of Barrio Brewing Co. and awaits his fate. He sits there, obediently, as he is wet from head to paw by two Tucson Roller Derby women.

The husky is then lathered with shampoo and rinsed. After being completely hosed down, Yukon realizes he still has some excess water on his coat. He begins to waddle his sides back and forth, releasing a fresh spray of water droplets on everyone within a 5-foot distance. People laugh and smile, drying themselves off as the dog continues to shake it all off.

“He loves the attention,” said Michelle Diaz, Yukon’s owner.

Diaz, the owner of both Yukon and Sitka, a shepherd and pit bull mix, was one of hundreds of people who attended the annual Tails and Ales Dog Wash on Sunday, put on by Tucson Roller Derby and Humane Society of Southern Arizona at Barrio Brewing Co. Tails and Ales started four years ago when the nonprofit organization, Tucson Roller Derby, chose another nonprofit, HSSA, to cohost the event and split all proceeds in half. The event has been successful in raising a lot of money to continue putting on the event annually since 2011, according to Kim Holley, the HSSA’s director of special events.

“It’s a total team effort and just a lot of fun if you’re into dogs,” said Steff Hunter, the HSSA’s events lead. “We are trying to get a more downtown presence, too. That’s why we have a bunch of cool new merchandise, such as shot glasses for the of-age college kids.”

Lori Broadhead, a Tucson Roller Derby skater, added that the event is great for everyone.

“The money that goes to the humane society is well worth it,” she said.

The event featured an HSSA and Tucson Roller Derby informational

booth, a veterinarian/grooming station, $15 dog washes, event merchandise booths that sold the event’s commemorative pint glass and Humane Society shot glasses, and local band Shrimp Chaperone, which rocked out as all the dogs were shaking their tails.

“This is something I’ve participated in for about three years,” said Dr. Kathryn Halstead, doctor of veterinarian medicine.

She said she attended many dog nail trimmings, ear cleanings and other grooming necessities along with veterinary technician Les White and volunteer Wendy Lilleland. Haldstead’s dog, Rita, who she adopted while she was in veterinary school, attended her side for the event.

“The event is really a great combination of the Roller Derby girls and Humane Society getting together and helping each other out,” said Andie Ruiz, a volunteer for HSSA and a UA information technology support analyst. “The energy around here is just great, the dogs are loving it and it’s a really good collaboration between the two organizations.”

Pickles, an 11-year-old pug who belongs to Derby skater Deni Perez, sported a bandana signed by the Derby women who gave him a wash. This was a trend for the event as every dog washed was given an autographed bandana to model.

“You get to watch hundreds of dogs come through, all different kinds of breeds and temperaments,” Perez said. “It’s a lot of fun. Everyone enjoys this event.”

Whether some of the dogs needed a bath or just got one because it went to a good cause, Tails and Ales was successful in raising money to help two nonprofit organizations. Tails and Ales left many enjoying brewed beverages and several clean dogs wagging their tails.

STUDENT SPOTLIGHT

Portrait of the artist as a Wildcat

BY BRENNA BAILEY

The Daily Wildcat

KRASNOFF FOSTER PRODUCTIONS

‘Community’ revamped

BY ALEX FURRIER

The Daily Wildcat

T

here’s a saying: If you love something, let it go.

Sometimes, however, when you love something enough, you fight tooth and nail for it, using threats of violence and fits of tears to keep it alive.

This is the philosophy of “Community,” which was resurrected in March for a sixth season on Yahoo. After five episodes, it appears “Community” has settled into its new home. As with any transitions, there are changes, new faces and bumps in the road. Shirley Bennett (Yvette Nicole Brown) has followed in the footsteps of Pierce Hawthorne (Chevy Chase) and Troy Barnes (Donald Glover) and left the show. Never one to miss a meta joke, Shirley’s departure is explained via a gag wherein she is now a cook and assistant to a New Orleans detective as part of her own spinoff show.

Of course, the gaps left by departing characters leave holes in the original ensemble that can be knitted over with secondary characters — but never truly filled. Stepping into larger roles are Dean Pelton (Jim Rash) and Ben Chang (Ken Jeong), and the gang is also joined by new characters Francesca “Frankie” Dart (Paget Brewster) and Elroy Patashnik (Keith David). The dynamic of Frankie’s disruptive injection in the first episode, “Ladders,” sets the theme and tone for season six.

Frankie arrives as the straight-laced foil to Greendale Community College and the gang’s absurd shenanigans.

Frankie’s pragmatic philosophy on everything Greendalerelated rubs Abed Nadir (Danny Pudi) the wrong way and causes him to question his views on everything.

Here, Abed provides an avatar for the viewer. Like the audience, he has to question whether he should adapt to the practical facts of life and give up on Greendale — and therefore “Community” as a show — or stick to his guns and never let go. Of course, Abed (and the audience) ultimately finds that the old “Community” song and dance is still worth pursuing.

Somewhere along the line, Greendale became the symbolic embodiment of “Community.”

Despite the world’s efforts to disband it, Greendale and “Community” would not go out without a fight.

In doing so, “Community” transitions from an ensemble show focused on the relationships between characters to a show centered completely around Greendale.

While oddball characters such as Abed and Britta Perry (Gillian Jacobs) seem at home being stuck at Greendale, there is just something off about the fact that go-getter Annie Edison (Alison Brie) hasn’t moved on, and Jeff Winger (Joel McHale) is satisfied with collecting checks as an “easy A” professor.

“Community” cast its lot by anchoring itself to

Greendale and has boxed in the characters as a result.

Greendale continues to bring laughs with its ridiculousness, such as when the school gets in a bind because it gave a degree to a dog. But the magic of “Community” existed in the characters’ relationships and a fearless attitude that felt no need to follow typical sitcom tropes. This nagging refusal to let go of what prime “Community” was stunts the show’s growth. Eventually, the show must come to grips with letting go — or else choose to ride off into the sunset.

Season six of “Community” is decent, but it can’t recreate the peak “Community” of seasons past. Much like previous fan-favorite shows that returned from cancellation on new mediums, such as “Arrested Development,” the parts are all in proper place — but the magic feels lacking.

Season six of “Community” is like your best friend from middle school. The reunion is a bit awkward but is ultimately rewarding. You understand why this person used to be your absolute favorite, but it’s just not the same anymore.

That’s no one’s fault.

Instead, “Community” should be applauded for persevering through every cancellation thrown at it. Even if it isn’t the same, it still elicits laughs, and that’s all that matters.

Art is in the eye of the beholder, and a student is using his time at the UA to create more beautiful works to behold.

“Painting is definitely my passion,” said Sean Coleman, an art education freshman. “It really is personal; it’s kind of a spiritual experience. You know, each piece of art someone creates — it’s only in their head until they make it. And once it’s created, it’s there. They created something out of thin air.”

The freshman said he “really feels like art is one of the most important things” in his life. He said his creative process is lengthy, detailed and completely subjective.

“I get the idea in my head, let it sit a few days, play around with it until I finalize the idea,” Coleman said. “I go up to the studio in the art building, … and I just start working for like five hours, getting a really rough picture. Then, I let it be for maybe a week, come and touch it up, or completely change it.”

Coleman explained that his pieces are ever-evolving throughout the process; he makes sure to paint with an open mind.

“You can’t finish a piece of art in one sitting,” Coleman said. “You have to constantly go back and look at it … revise it, revise it, revise it.”

Throughout his over three-dozenpiece collection, Coleman explores different painting styles, from more realism-focused pieces to altered realities.

“I’ve always found when I try to base [a painting] off what I see in front of me, I’m always trying to make it exactly like that picture,” Coleman said. “It’s never quite right. … But when I [paint] it from my mind, it’s what I want and what I imagine.”

Hoping to be a high school art teacher some day, Coleman said his high school and college art teachers really influenced and fueled his passion to pursue art as a career. Though he knows school funding will affect his future career, in five years, he said he hopes to become a mentor and fosterer of creativity.

“I just really want to teach kids and just help them grow emotionally [and] spiritually,” he said.

Coleman, upon observing some local art mounted upon the walls of the Scented Leaf Tea House and Lounge, said he feels that art, as a whole, is underappreciated. He added that art doesn’t necessarily need to be a physical medium, such as a painting or sketch; rather, by looking deeper into aesthetic value, we can recognize art in anything.

BRENNA BAILEY/THE DAILY WILDCAT

A STENCIL PIECE by Sean Coleman inspired by street artists such as Bansky. Coleman said art often goes unappreciated and comes in many different forms.

“[Art] can be a photograph on the side of the wall or just the look of a building,” he said. “Art is everywhere in our lives, and people don’t even notice it.”

Coleman also noted that he feels as though people wrongly label art as a natural talent. Contrary to popular belief, making beautiful art is not an “innate ability.”

“Some [artists] are [naturally] gifted, but they always have to work for it,” he said. “Great artists aren’t great because they’re lucky; they’re great because they worked for it.”

Coleman said he feels as though his passion, painting, is highly underappreciated and underestimated, especially in modern pre-college curriculums.

“I really feel like art is one of the most important things,” Coleman said.

“People are so obsessed with STEM research. … People really need to look at art. It’s a real alleviating circle; you have the technology, but you also have to have the view to it.”

Coleman said he constantly attempts to broaden his horizons, craving a continual evolution as an artist.

“I try to get myself immersed in art,” he said. “Listening to music can really give me inspiration, listening to a poem — it’s all really connected.”

Within his time at the UA, Coleman strives to fulfill his ideas for local art shows showcasing his works, as well as continuing to evolve and learn more about himself as an artist. He said he hopes to not only fulfill his own needs for personal expression through his work but to also show others the beauty in abstract thinking.
