Smart meters raise parking fares BY FELIPE MORENO The Daily Wildcat

Customers visiting Fourth Avenue or downtown Tucson next month can expect to pull up alongside new smart meters that will base rates on demand data and will increase the price of parking. Outcry from business owners upset over workers parking on the street instead of customers has prompted the Tucson City Council to invest in these new meters, as well as raise the base rate from fifty cents per hour to

Filmmaker shares how mind cured her illness - 10 SHANE BEKIAN/THE DAILY WILDCAT

AUSTRALIAN FILMMAKER Shannon Harvey discusses her film “The Connection” after it’s premiere at the Gallagher Theater on Monday. The film explores how the relationship between mental and physical well-being could be targeted to cure chronic illness.

With Common Core standards on the line in the gubernatorial election, some UA professors and local Tucson teachers agree that common core standards are beneficial to students in preparing for college. The Arizona Republic recently fact-checked that gubernatorial candidate Fred DuVal supports Common Core, unlike his opponent, Doug Ducey. In an attempt to deflect criticism, some states have decided to throw out the title “common core” and individualize their educational standards. Gov. Jan Brewer opted for the title Arizona’s College and Career Ready Standards. Common core is not a federal mandate or national curriculum, though there is an incentive to adopt it in the form of the federally funded Race to the Top grant . This grant is the result of years of labor conducted by the bi-partisan organization Achieve, with the help of state educators and representatives. In 2009, research began to elevate rigor and expectancies of the American K-12 education system. Common Core was crafted with the intention that each state would alter it to its specific needs. The overall goal is to ensure American children have the same academic proficiency as other American children

UA experts optimistic about Ebola crisis BY BRANDI WALKER The Daily Wildcat

Doctors associated with the UA are working to combat the Ebola virus crisis that is underway in West Africa. Dr. Tom Kenyon, who teaches at the UA College of Medicine and director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Center for Global Health, spoke on the Ebola crisis and how the UA can help. He said that we are experiencing the first Ebola epidemic in West Africa and that the epidemic is now heavily affecting Liberia, Sierra Leone and Guinea. “[Ebola] has a very high fatality rate,” said Dr. Ronald Pust, a professor at the UA Mel and Enid Zuckerman College of Public Health. “You are about 50 percent or more likely to die without, or even with, treatment. There is no vaccine or proven medications at this point.” The CDC recently made an announcement about drug therapies for Ebola.

their own age, independent of their home state. William McCallum, a professor in mathematics and founder of the Institute for Mathematics and Education, designed the mathematics portion of Common Core standards. “Standards are standards,” McCallum said. “People often confuse standards with curriculum. Standards don’t define curriculum. Curriculum is how you reach the standards. It is simply expectations of what children need. Standards give us the tools to solve problems.” Dean Ronald Marx of education stressed the national importance of aligning educational expectations. Teacher preparation programs typically prepare future teachers to teach the standards of the state where they study. This can cause future teachers searching for employment in another state unable to meet specific standards due to academic inconsistencies. Marx said he believes this will not be an issue for UA students because McCallum taught Common Core to them with the assistance of other teachers. “In many respects, we are ground zero for the mathematics effort,” Marx said. “This is enormously helpful to the university and our students.” McCallum said some graduates from the program have informed him their teaching is in high demand across the country due to their understanding of Common Core. Some parents of children at E.C. Nash Elementary School have not heard of Common Core standards. The school displays academic enthusiasm on its marquee board, which reads “We are a proud no excuses university school. We are college bound.” Rene Acereto, a seventh-grade math

Despite assurances that Parkwise Tucson had gone through a public outreach process, current downtown employees are not happy with the price increase or the introduction of price meters. Rachel D’Acquisto, a bartender from Diablo Burger, said she was dismayed at the news of the rates increasing, and yet still planned on parking in front of her job at a street meter. She wasn’t aware of the upcoming introduction of smart meters. “Of course, nobody is real thrilled with paying more money to park, but these are still very low rates that we’re talking about,” Kozachik said. “I think people recognize that this is a reasonable tweak in rates.”

Small businesses on the rise in Ariz. BY HArrison Leff

Arizona Sonora News Service

The entrepreneurial spirit thrives in Arizona as new small businesses continue to emerge in an atmosphere that fosters their growth and development more than in any year since 2008. In 2011, Arizona had 506,365 small businesses employing 928,155 workers, which was more than two-fifths of the states’ private workforce, according to a Small Business Profile published in 2014 by the Small Business Administration’s Office of Advocacy. This number was lower than larger states like California, New York and Texas, which all had about half of their workforce employed by small businesses. “Arizona is one of the best places in the country for entrepreneurs as an entire state,” says Jerry Bustamante, the Southern Arizona director of the Arizona Small Business Association. Nationwide, Arizona experienced the fastest 12-month growth of state small business hiring at 2.79 percent, according to 2013 data called the Small Business Jobs Index compiled and published by Paychex Inc., a company that offers its data collection and analysis services to businesses. This growth recorded over the past year was due in large part to Phoenix, which was by far the fastest growing Metro area in terms of small business hiring at 2.9 percent, compared to the next closest, Houston, at 1.31 percent. Of the more than 20 different industries mentioned by the SBA survey, the three with the highest number of small business employment in were health care and social assistance, accommodation and food services and construction. The health care and social assistance industry employed 143,771 workers, which made up about 16 percent of the 928,155 workers employed by small businesses in total. The accommodation and food services industry had 133,602 employees, or 14 percent of the total small business workforce. A reason for the large percentage of small businesses in food services is the low barrier of entry, according to Bustamante, since it is relatively easy to find the ingredients and employees necessary to open a restaurant. Since the end of the recession, small firms comprised of 20 to 499 people accounted for about 60 percent of the new jobs created, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. Starting a businesses is never easy or guaranteed. Fewer than 50 percent of small businesses make it to the four-year mark. About 35 percent fail before two years, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. Bustamante says that the statewide embracing of new emerging

businesses has encouraged more businesses to either be created or move to Arizona. The friendliness is partly due to major tax advantages the state offers that have caused some small businesses to move from states with higher taxes like California. A Tucson clothing store called Fed by Threads is one of these small businesses that began in Arizona, although it now ships its products nationally. The stores owner and founder, Alok Appadurai, says that once he decided to open a store in May of 2012, he realized how large of a venture he was undertaking. “I put my life savings into starting a business, so when you have so much on the line it’s important to do as much as you can to plan and develop your business,” says Appadurai. The retail trade is the fourth largest employer in the state amongst small businesses, employing 83,177 workers. For businesses like Fed by Threads, the competition is tough, as small businesses only employ 27 percent of the total workforce in the retail industry.

Small businesses not only have to compete against larger companies in terms of the prices on products they sell, but also on salaries and benefits that they are able to offer employees to avoid losing them to more lucrative offers. One very important tool that has allowed smaller businesses to compete with larger ones is the use of online advertising, often through social media. “Small businesses are in a much better place now to compete with larger companies because of social media,” says Bustamante. Businesses are able to use online marketing to reach customers, rather than expending larger amounts of money on production and advertising costs through traditional advertising. Another tool being utilized by newer businesses is email marketing, with the aid of companies like Constant Contact. Data can be useful in helping businesses find their target audience or stay connected with customers. Appadurai says that it is important

to keep all component of the business in mind, ranging from the product itself to costumer interactions and relationships with supplies. “There isn’t an easy business out there, those that succeed are able to be unique and get a certain market excited about their product or service,” says Bustamante, “Success comes down to planning. The best way to avoid failure is to make sure you have all of yours ends covered.” Another detail Bustamante includes is a solid understand of a businesses cash flow. Many businesses that fail don’t have enough money to sustain any problems, and are unable to cover any unforeseen issues or droughts in business that may occur. “One of the most important things in starting and developing a business is relationships,” says Appadurai, continuing, “sustainability is built off of working with good people who can help you take on plan and moving towards your goal.”

We need to talk about frat culture BY Kirk Hendricks The Daily Wildcat

ast semester, an old high school friend of mine recommended that I join his college fraternity. One look from me in response, and he was on the defensive, saying things like “We have some of the highest average GPAs on campus,” or “We are actually about brotherhood and philanthropy” — in short, “We aren’t a stereotypical fraternity.” What is a normal fraternity at the UA? What is its purpose? Do we truly still believe that fraternities are based on forming lifelong friendships, or has the institution become code for a university-sanctioned, four-year-long party that has terrible implications for participants, including both its members and the women who visit as their guests? Living in the dorms, I know quite a few women who choose to visit fraternity parties, but only those run by certain fraternities. Word-of-mouth plays an incredible role in helping women try to stay safe. Find the nearest woman who attends greeksponsored parties and ask her to name the fraternities with bad reputations — not for having bad dancers or poor musical taste, but because women know that they are more likely to be sexually assaulted or raped if they visit these places. That alone should tell us something about the role of these organizations on our campus. In a speech given in January, President Barack Obama cited the oft-repeated statistic that one in every five female students will be sexually assaulted during college. That would be disturbing enough without also considering a statistic confirmed by at least three different studies: members of fraternities are three times as likely to rape a woman than the average college man. One of these studies, titled “Behavior Differences Seven Months Later: Effects of a Rape Prevention Program,” by John Foubert, Johnathan Newberry and Jerry Tatum, was also able to collect data on rates of sexual assault prior to college to establish a causal argument. The study showed that while those who later joined fraternities had the same rate of sexual assault offenses before college as those who didn’t join fraternities, the rate of offenses committed jumped after joining fraternities compared to those who didn’t. This statistic doesn’t tell us that fraternities are attracting rapists, as scary as that would be, but rather that fraternities are creating rapists. Georgia Institute of Technology recently disbanded its chapter of the Phi Kappa Tau fraternity for circulating emails containing a guidebook on how to intoxicate and rape women and some absolutely awful songs that glorify the sadistic rape, torture and murder of women. While some of the fraternity members may have realized that the material they were circulating was wrong, no one stopped it or said anything. Caitlin Flanagan of The Atlantic wrote a piece titled “The Dark Power of Fraternities,” which elaborates on the origins of fraternities and why they currently hold so much power on campuses across the nation. Like so many things, it has to do with money — in this case, the power of alumni contributions to the hosting university. Flanagan makes one already-obvious point even more incredibly clear: fraternities were created based on the idea of creating lasting friendships with other men that would enhance both their members’ college experiences and their ultimate leadership abilities postcollege. Not rape. Many, if not most, of the men who are currently in fraternities — both at the UA and around the country — are most likely not rapists and are, unsurprisingly, decent people. But fraternity brothers should think about the fact that they are far more likely to be keeping company with sexual predators than the rest of the student population. They should consider how greek life has created an environment that greatly increases the chances of men choosing to rape women. The legal argument that has defended fraternities from university administrators for close to 200 years — the right to freely associate — comes with the responsibility of associating with people whom you are proud of and will be for the rest of your life. — Kirk Hendricks is a sophomore studying math and physics.

Reducing food waste a first step to fight poverty, climate change BY Nick Havey

The Daily Wildcat

few days ago, I ate four bananas in one sitting because I was worried that by the next day they would be brown and mushy, and I would lose out on both the bananas and the money and time I spent procuring them. Although I thankfully don’t count myself among the high number — nearly 60 percent — of college students who deal with food insecurity, I worry about food waste and actively try to combat it. According to The Global Scientist, “Food waste is one of the most important environmental challenges we currently face. Because of this, the 2013 UN World Environment Day theme was food waste and reducing your foodprint.” Reducing your foodprint, like reducing your carbon footprint, is just a part of being a socially and environmentally conscious human. Every year, between 30-40 percent of food is wasted from

Alexandra Heeney of “The “farm to fork,” and that number, Global Scientist,” notes a not-soespecially when applied globally, surprising trend progressing: “In is shocking.

passes it to the consumer. This is an issue that requires attention and widespread effort to be combatted. Berkley Harris, lead board member for the UA Campus Pantry, said that even the smallest effort towards consciousness and prevention helps. “The individual definitely has a big impact on the issue of food waste,” Harris said. “Although it is a global issue, realistic solutions start with the individual. Being conscious is a start. This issue is not only an environmental issue, but a social issue. Millions of people go without food every day and hundreds in Tucson go hungry — the food one person wastes could change someone else’s life. That food can be donated to a nearby shelter or food bank.” So make an effort to not pour that half-gallon of milk down the sink, because it’s not only irresponsible for the environment but also for your wallet and your conscience.

Pulse of the Pac Students from the region discuss cost of tuition and next steps in the LGBT rights movement From “Oregon State contributing to student-debt crisis,” by Cassie Ruud

The options are thus: Hope that the job market, which currently shares characteristics with an angry Department of Motor Vehicles employee, takes pity on you regardless of your education and judges you for your skills. Or, sign your name in blood, promising the life of your firstborn to higher education so that you have a better chance of landing a job. Does it have to be like this? Probably not. Did you know that the University of Wyoming only wants $4,404 for in-state tuition and fees? And if you apply all of your money saving superpowers — scholarships, grants and Top Ramen — those prices don’t look quite so scary. College becomes a possibility without the damning Faustlike potential to lose your soul in the process. I don’t know what Wyoming is doing that we’re not to keep its tuition prices low, but it seems to be up-to-date on its student health services and diversity centers.

From “Miles to go before we sleep: Bringing LGBT homelessness into the spotlight,” by Dylan Teague McDonals

LGBT youth constitute five percent of minors overall, but 40 percent of homeless minors, a discrepancy commonly attributed to ostracism by religious families. … An estimated 1.7 million minors are homeless in America, yet only 4,000 shelter beds are set aside for youth at all. Even those meager resources are not an option to many LGBT youth, who are often singled out for abuse by other homeless youth because of their sexual orientation. The youth shelter, when it exists, can be just as hostile as the home. Current government-run systems, such as child services, shelters and foster programs, take almost no account of

sexual or gender identity, and LGBT youth sometimes find themselves placed in intolerant foster families. Back in 2010, [Dan] Savage spearheaded the “It Gets Better” project, which addressed the tide of rising suicide among LGBT youth by having LGBT adults show how life can improve. But homelessness is a different sort of problem. Sticking it out can be hard enough with a roof overhead and food in the fridge. … It’s time for increased activism from LGBT people and allies in this area. For homeless youth, it doesn’t simply “get better.” It has to be actively made better. This is an opportunity for the community to really pull together and provide for those in the greatest danger. We shouldn’t stop campaigning for increased acceptance and legal protections, but we also need to expand in certain other directions. Those with the greatest means should found nonprofits and open shelters specifically catering to LGBT youth. As adoption rights are won and expanded, LGBT and allied households can adopt or at least foster homeless youth. The Daily University of Washington

POLICE BEAT BY ARIELLA NOTH

The Daily Wildcat

This sidewalk ain’t big enough

A UA student was cited and released for minor in possession of alcohol on Sept. 20. A University of Arizona Police Department officer was dispatched to the Likins Hall Residence Hall around 2 a.m. in reference to a man who had been sleeping on the sidewalk and began vomiting when woken up. Upon the officers arrival, University Emergency Medical Services was already on the scene attempting to evaluate the man. The male was very argumentative and stated that he would not sit on the ground because there was not enough room. When Tucson Fire Department firefighters arrived on the scene, they found a place for the man to sit so he could be evaluated. The officer said that the individual seemed very agitated with his presence. The male repeatedly swore at the officer, TFD firefighters, and EMS workers. The individual repeatedly refused to give the officer his name and said he just needed food and he would be fine. After speaking to the officer, the man verbally identified himself. He had red, watery and bloodshot eyes, difficulty keeping his balance and visible vomit on his socks and shoes. The man also had varying moods that shifted quickly from angry and argumentative to sad. The man then began crying because he claimed that TFD firefighters had mistreated him by being too rough. He was then medically cleared.

The Devil’s New Clothes

A UA student reported that he had woken up to find his clothes, cellphone and wallet missing on Sept. 20. A UAPD officer responded to the man, who said he had been drugged the night before. He explained that he had been drinking beer at his friend’s dorm room with other individuals. He could not recall the room number, but identified his friend. He said he drank three 12-ounce cans of beer and went to the bathroom. When he returned, a visiting student from Arizona State University whom he only knew by first name pointed at a shot of vodka he had been served earlier and said, “You haven’t touched that in a while.” The student took the shot and drank it. The student left later with another friend to hang out at another location. He said he remembered meeting with a few people and going to a few apartments, but nothing after that. The student then said he woke up later naked with Tucson Police Department officers talking to him. He said the only article of clothing he had on was his wrist watch. He was given a blanket and was transported to his dorm. The student said he was not hung over and felt fine after being escorted to his dorm, which led him to believe he was drugged. He later went to have a blood test performed. He was told, however, that everything was normal, and that if he had been drugged, it had already left his system. The student then reported that his clothes, shoes, socks, wallet, keys and cellphone were missing. He was given a victim’s rights form and advised to call UAPD if he had any further information regarding the case.

NUMBER OF THE DAY

Arizona football has only won twice in Eugene since 1998. The most recent matchup saw Oregon trounce the Wildcats 49-0 in a nationally televised game.

THE ARIZONA DEFENSE tackles Oregon then-sophomore wide receiver Bralon Addison during Arizona’s 42-16 win against Oregon on Nov. 23, 2013 at Arizona Stadium. The Wildcats travel to Eugene, Ore., this Thursday looking for their first road win against Oregon since 2006.

Arizona had an extra week to prepare for Oregon as the Wildcats look to win in Eugene for the first time since 2006 of his favorite Pac-12 Conference players. “He goes really hard,” Frost said to The Register-Guard. “We have a challenge ahead.” Tevis is fifth in the Pac-12 in tackles and said he talked to Frost about it at Pac-12 Media Day over the summer. “They call me ‘the assassin’ in the film room up there, so I took that as a big compliment,” Tevis said.

Arizona football travels to No. 2 Oregon this week after routing the Ducks 42-16 in Tucson last year. In 2013, the Wildcats knocked No. 5 Oregon out of a Bowl Championship Series bowl with the blow out. This season, the two face off on Thursday night on ESPN with both squads being 4-0.

Wilson expected to play

True freshman running back Nick Wilson, who left the Cal game with a head injury, is expected to play Thursday. Rodriguez said Wilson has been held out of full contact in practice as a precaution but that he’ll be ready to go at Oregon. After four games of being listed as the back-up, Wilson is now listed on the top line of the depth chart with senior Terris Jones-Grigsby. “We feel now we have two starting tailbacks,” Rodriguez said last week in the Pac-12 teleconference. “They’ll probably share equal time or close to it.” Wilson is averaging 120.5 yards per game rushing, while JonesGrigsby, who has battled an ankle injury, is averaging 76 yards per game on the ground.

“I immediately asked, ‘Who do we got to beat to recruit him?’ and there wasn’t really a whole lot,” Rodriguez said. “I didn’t know he had two stars. I thought he had one.” Wright III is from Windsor, Calif. Wright III, whose legal name is Phillip, was rated as a two-star recruit by Rivals and Scout and is tied for seventh in the nation tackles for loss with 1.8 per game and ninth in the NCAA in solo tackles with 7.3 per game. “We gotta have a big game out of Scooby on Thursday night,” Rodriguez said.

rizona’s defense has been the backbone of the team under head coach Sean Miller, but the Wildcats won’t win a national championship if the three ball doesn’t fall. Gone is do-it-all guard Nick Johnson, who led the team in three-point makes and provided countless clutch plays for a 33-5 Arizona squad that advanced to the Elite Eight last season. The team struggled to consistently space out the floor last season, particularly because the team played such a big lineup. The front court of Aaron Gordon, Brandon Ashley and Kaleb Tarczewski was among the best in the nation and rightfully dictated the mentality of the team. That was before Ashley went down for the season with a broken foot and Gabe York was inserted into the starting lineup. York ended up starting just 12 games for the Wildcats but his importance to the team cannot be understated. He provides valuable floor spacing that opens up driving lanes and free the big men. To be clear, York should not be classified as a sixth man; he is a sixth starter. York, who’s listed at 6-foot-3 but is closer to 6-foot-1, would start on almost every other Pac-12 Conference team. Arizona is not every other Pac-12 team, though. Miller will likely plug and play highly touted recruit Stanley Johnson and bring York off the bench again. However, thinking of York as just the sixth man is not fair to his importance to the team. Arizona’s offense was much more fluid and had better spacing with York in the lineup. In essence, York proved he’s good enough to start on a marquee team. Despite playing about only 22 minutes per game last year, York was second on the team in threepoint makes (52) behind Johnson. I have no doubt that York will have a prime opportunity to improve upon that mark this season. Another player who could contribute in the three-point game is sophomore Elliott Pitts. Pitts played sparingly as a freshman last season as Miller used seven- and eight-man rotations instead of a deeper

TWEET TO NOTE

Three pointers key to wins

North 1. No. 2 Oregon (4-0, 1-0 Pac-12 Conference) Like Arizona, the Ducks also had a bye week before the primetime game Thursday. Unlike the Wildcats, Oregon, which gained ground on No. 1 Florida State in the AP poll but lost some to No. 3 Alabama, is trying to hold on to a playoff spot. Last week: First, Bye This week: Thursday vs. Arizona (4-0, 1-0) 2. No. 14 Stanford (3-1, 1-1) The Cardinal’s offense had more turnovers (three) than touchdowns (two) at Washington but it’s tough to win in Seattle. This week, Stanford travels to honorary Pac-12 team Notre Dame in the Fighting Irish’s first game of three against the Pac-12. Last week: Second, W at Washington 20-13 This week: Saturday at No. 9 Notre Dame 3. Washington (4-1, 0-1) The Huskies nearly beat Stanford at home and the way the Cardinal’s offense was playing may have blown it with an ill-advised fourth quarter fake punt. Stanford got a short field and scored the gamewinning touchdown. What could

have been for the Huskies. Last week: Fourth, L vs. Stanford 20-13 This week: Bye 4. Oregon State (3-1, 0-1) The Beavers got pounded at USC but they were very much in the game until a Trojan Hail at the end of the first half. Including the Hail Mary, USC scored 21 answered points to turn a 14-10 game into a rout. The Beavers need to avoid another pounding this week. Last week: third, L at USC 35-10 This week: Saturday at Colorado (2-3, 0-2) 5. California (3-1, 1-1) Unlike the Beavers, the Golden Bears recovered from both the Hail Mary they suffered and Colorado tying the game late to win their first Pac-12 game since October 2012. The only reason Cal didn’t move up is that win came against CU, which has only beaten one Pac-12 since September 2012: Cal last season. Last week: fifth, W vs. Colorado 59-56 (2 OT) This week: Saturday at Washington State (2-3, 1-1) 6. Washington State Last week, the Cougars mounted a furious rally to beat Utah on the road, overcoming a 17-point halftime deficit. This week, we’ll learn a lot about the Pac-12 North

rotation that would’ve included Pitts. The 6-foot-5 guard is one of the better shooters on the team and could see an increase in playing time now that Johnson is gone. Having another summer with the Arizona strength and conditioning coaches should do wonders for Pitts. His main reason for not playing last season had to be his lack of defense, something that York went through the previous season. If Pitts can get stronger and improve his defensive awareness, expect to see his three-point shooting in the lineup more consistently. Rounding out what should be a better shooting rotation is freshman Kadeem Allen. Allen, who was named the 2014 National JUCO Player of the Year by the NABC and NJCCA, is a bit of an unknown compared to York and Pitts. Allen averaged 25.9 points per game last season and had offers from Kansas and Indiana, among other programs. His ability to score from different areas is what makes him so deadly but it’ll be interesting to see how his three-point shot looks after the Arizona staff coaches him up. If there’s a player who could surprise a lot of people this year, it’s Kadeem Allen.

Q How can I tell if I’ve been roofied?

A. it have to do with drinking? The term originally referred to the drug Some of you might be wondering what’s “roofied” and what does

Rohypnol and now includes other drugs with similar effects such as GHB and Ketamine. They have street names like psychedelic heroin, mind erasers, or cat valium, and most are illegal in the U.S. These drugs were developed as anesthetics for humans and yes, animals, and are potent sedatives. That means they can knock you out and you won’t remember what happened! Some people think it’s fun or have ulterior motives (think date rape drug here) to sneak a pill or liquid form of these substances into an unsuspecting person’s drink at parties. Most of these are colorless and odorless so you wouldn’t know unless you started experiencing some of the following: • loss of muscle control • confusion • sleepiness or dizziness • sudden blackout • distorted perceptions

• difficulty with coordination • feeling out of control • nausea • amnesia afterwards • problems breathing

The problem with trying to tell if you’ve been roofied or not is that the effects mimic feeling really drunk. If a drinker loses count of how many drinks have been consumed or assumes it’s less than it really is, one could wonder if something was slipped in a drink. These substances have a synergistic effect when combined with alcohol, meaning you’ll feel much more intoxicated than usual. At high doses, breathing may stop.

Relax this Week...

Roofie Protection 101 from the Campus Health Service’s CAPS’ Dr. C: • Don’t accept opened containers from others; open them yourself • Keep your drink with you at all times • Don’t drink punchbowl concoctions • Don’t drink anything that tastes or smells strange • Have a non-drinking friend in your group • If you feel like passing out drunk and haven’t had any or much alcohol, get help • Avoid parties with people and places you don’t know • If you’re starting to feel sick/drunk, accept offers home only with trusted friends What Should I Do If I Think I’ve Been Drugged? • Call 911 and get medical care

Health film screens at Gallagher BY Victoria Pereira The Daily Wildcat

“T

he Connection” is an independent documentary that brings to light how powerful the mind can be when it comes to curing detrimental diseases. The documentary had its Tucson premiere last night in the Student Union Memorial Center’s Gallagher Theater. Integrative medicine is a field of medical research focusing on how the mind and body intertwine with one another. Conventional treatments involving medications, operations and procedures, as well as alternative methods, have been important in managing illnesses, but advancements in integrative medicine are also proving to be an essential part of the health care process. “The Connection” is directed and produced by Shannon Harvey, an Australian filmmaker and journalist who was diagnosed with Lupus at age 24. Lupus is an autoimmune disease in which the immune system becomes hyperactive and destroys healthy tissue, causing damage to skin, joints and organs. “Although my doctors meant the best for me, none of them could offer me a cause or a cure,” Harvey said. “There was one thing I did know — when I was stressed, my symptoms were worse — and as a journalist, I started asking questions.” Harvey searched the globe for world-leading experts in the

study of integrative medicine and learned as much as she could about the connection between the body and the mind and what it could mean for her situation. As she began utilizing the advice the experts had given her, Harvey noticed that her condition improved greatly. “I no longer take medication, and I haven’t seen a doctor for my autoimmune disease in years,” Harvey said. Wanting to spread the knowledge that she gathered and help others in similar situations, Harvey began working on the

documentary. After three years of production and a delay after Harvey became pregnant, the documentary launched its world tour earlier this month. Featuring a background of the connection between the mind and body, experts sharing their work and research and success stories from patients who have been cured of disease through integrative medicine, “The Connection” is the film that Harvey “wanted to see when [she] got sick.” Two members of the Arizona Center for Integrative Medicine,

Dr. Andrew Weil and Dr. Esther Sternberg, are both featured as experts in “The Connection,” and each has an extensive background in integrative medicine research. “Whenever you give a treatment and there’s a positive response, it’s impossible to know how much of that response is due to the direct effect of the treatment and how much is an indirect effect that is mediated by the mind,” says Weil, the founder and director of AzCIM, in the documentary. A graduate of Harvard University, Weil has written many

books on medical research, been named one of Time Magazine’s 100 most influential people in 2005 and been an extremely important force in the world of integrative medicine. Sternberg is a physician, medical researcher, professor and author. She is a research director at AzCIM and a director at The University of Arizona Institute on Place and Wellbeing, has written two books about her findings in the integrated medical field and created and hosted a Public Broadcasting Service television special on the topic. Sternberg said she loves helping others through her work and making a difference in other people’s lives. When asked why she does what she does, she said, “To help people. To change the landscape of health and wellbeing … and to make a difference in the health of our community, nation and world.” The only screening of “The Connection” in Tucson took place last night at Gallagher Theater, with the screening also functioning as a fundraiser for AzCIM. The film is continuing its tour in New York and London and had sold out showings in both of the premieres in Sydney and Melbourne, Australia. The documentary will be available for purchase starting on Oct. 15. — Follow Victoria Pereira @vguardie917

Jazz showcase Church rises from profiles talent of ashes for festival dance students

Dancers at the UA School of Dance will show tonight that dance don’t mean a thing if it ain’t got some swing. The dancers will start their toe-tapping at 7:30 p.m. for the annual Jazz in AZ program in the Stevie Eller Dance Theatre. The event is labeled as a “One Act and One Hour” must-see show. The audience can expect to be taken on a roller coaster ride through various dances like “Evolution of a Dream,” with its slow and smooth rhythm, to the upbeat remix version of “Sweet Dreams (Are Made of This)” by the Eurythmics. Then, the audience will be shown a duet dance of “Her/Him,” choreographed by Michael Williams, reflecting on moments of intimacy and lost love, according to an article from the Arizona Daily Star. This melancholy sequence will bring the audience down to a somber moment before being uplifted again by the next jazz set. The showcase then takes another turn with the number “PuckerUP,” a cover of Prince’s hit song “Kiss” to the fantastical elements of “Tales and Rhymes,” and then hit the epitome of femininity and strength with the number “And So...” The climax is the final ensemble piece of twenty dancers in the “La Dansa de Dominacion,” which is sure to knock the audience’s pants off. “I think what people can expect [from the showcase] is the versatility of the dances,” said Mariesha Nash, a senior bachelor of fine arts dance student who is performing in the showcase. “We’ve got jazz, tap and modern dance.”

Nash first started dancing as a toddler, but didn’t develop a true love of the craft until later on in her childhood. Nash began her student career with the Arizona Jazz Dance showcase when she was a freshman. “It can be hard, but after a while you get used to it,” Nash said about rehearsing the pieces and dancing in general. Michael Williams, director of the showcase and professor at the UA School of Dance, said the dancers rehearse for a few weeks before the performance and for about five hours per week depending on the piece. “But it can go up to 20 hours a week,” Williams said. Williams said that he began dancing around the age of five and has continued ever since. He was working with a dance company at the time the UA offered him a chance to come to Tucson to develop the jazz dance program. “I’ve been here since 1991,” Williams said. “That was 23 years ago.” It has also been 23 years since the establishment of the Arizona Jazz Dance Showcase. There’s something to say about longevity and creativity. Williams chooses which dances to showcase and tries to keep the choices fairly recent and new for the audience. So get a taste of some lively jazz numbers at tonight’s showcase, which is open to the Tucson public today, tomorrow and Thursday. Tickets can be purchased online and prices may vary. — Follow Ivana Goldtooth @goldiechik93

Thousands of visitors flowed onto the grounds of St. Demetrios Greek Orthodox Church last weekend during the Tucson Greek Festival. Behind the celebratory food and music of the festival were the remnants of a tragedy that occurred in the church last summer. “It burned a year ago in May,” said Elizabeth Brollini, president of the Mirofores, St. Demetrios’ myrrh-bearing women. “We had a fire that started at about midnight. It burned for seven minutes and destroyed everything.” The building committee at St. Demetrios has been working diligently to find new grounds for the construction of a new church, but the prevalence of properties resting on floodplains has hindered progress. “We have our architect, and we’ve purchased land on River Road,” said Angela Zerdavis, chair of the building committee explained. “Now we’re spending all of our time on hydrology, since it’s in a floodplain.” With no official projections for construction of the new church, St. Demetrios currently holds its services in the community center, which holds the annual Tucson Greek Festival. The fire last May reached temperatures of 1,000 degrees Fahrenheit and left the church an utter shell of its former self, according to a presentation at the festival. Despite the destruction, the fire did not destroy everything. A few artifacts from the church survived, including a sacred version of the 12 gospels, which holds a unique story that was told during the presentation. On April 27, 1989, during the evening Holy Thursday service, Father Anthony Moschonas finished reading from the fifth gospel. He closed the book and attempted to transfer it from the holy altar while he prepared for the procession depicting Jesus’ crucifixion. The book, used for countless readings during past Holy Weeks, proved too heavy to be moved. While Moschonas did not let the book’s

unnatural weight trouble him, after the procession, he noticed something miraculous about the book. The cover of the 12 gospels, which depicts the crucifixion and resurrection of Jesus, had changed. The image of Jesus in the crucifixion had begun to bleed. Moschonas announced the miracle to the congregation before the service finished and displayed the book for St. Demetrios’ congregation to behold the next day, on Good Friday. In a 1989 letter to the church’s bishop in San Francisco, Anthony Moschonas wrote, “Fear came all over me … This blood was on the holy icon of Christ, on the right side of [his] body, at the place where [he] was pierced. Some blood also appeared on the left side of [his] chest.” Since its astonishing change in 1989, the book has been deemed the Bleeding Gospel. “Hardly anything else survived,” Zerdavis said, commenting on the icon’s survival of the fire. “There’s only a tiny bit of smoke damage along the sides.” According to Zerdavis, besides the comparatively miniscule amount of damage from the blaze, the book had been tampered with on one other occasion. “A few years ago, someone broke in and scraped it,” Zerdavis said. “Before that, it glistened and was thick.” The incident may have tarnished the Bleeding Gospel, but, according to Zerdavis, the book continues to perform its miraculous feat and attracts visitors from around the globe. “It bleeds at different times, and it continues to bleed,” Zerdavis said. The Bleeding Gospel survived interventions of notable scale and continues to be preserved at St. Demetrios in the ruins of the former church. As one of the few remaining icons that survived the fire, it holds a position of respect and veneration within the Tucson Greek Orthodox community. — Follow Ian Martella @DailyWildcat
