THE CHINESE CULTURE FESTIVAL, hosted by the UA Confucius Institute, is a weeklong event featuring music, art and martial arts presentations.

The Rich Rodriguez era is in full swing after the Wildcats upset nationally ranked Oklahoma State and shut out South Carolina State 56-0 last Saturday to give Arizona its first 3-0 start since 2010 . Unfortunately for Wildcats fans across the nation, the game wasn’t aired on TV. The Wildcats will host Oregon State on Sept. 29 , but many Arizona fans will be unable to watch.

The new Pac-12 Network and DirecTV are in a stalemate regarding contract negotiations, and DirecTV

subscribers are getting caught in the middle.

“It’s pretty unfortunate,” undeclared junior Connor Worth said. “I wish they could work it out. They need to put their customers first.

“The reality is the Pac-12 is a huge conference, and they [have] a lot of customers on the West Coast who want to watch Pac-12 sports.”

On Aug. 15 , the Pac-12 Network looked to change the way in which college sports were viewed in the West.

Pac-12 commissioner Larry Scott and co. created a network model composed of six regional networks:

Los Angeles, Arizona, the Bay Area, Mountain (Utah and Colorado), Washington and Oregon .

Unlike the other college conference networks like Big Ten Network , which partnered with Fox, and Mtn, which partnered with CBS Sports , the Pac-12 Network was created from scratch without partnering with any major media companies. Major service pro-viders, such as Comcast Cable, Cox Cable, Time Warner Cable, and DISH Network, have all agreed to multi-year contracts, which would allow their customers to watch Pac-12 sports in-cluding basketball, football, soccer, tennis and volleyball.

Few students have had to take semesters off to prepare for a national pageant.

Piper Stoeckel , a Prescott native and journalism senior, was crowned Miss Arizona last June, and will be competing for the title of Miss America in January . Stoeckel is taking the year off from classes to focus on a competition she’s been involved in for a number of years.

“I had my eye on pageants junior year,” Stoeckel said. “I admired the community service and talent. I watched Miss Arizona’s 2011 winner, Jennifer Sedler, and saw her doing the most incredible things, and she really inspired me to get involved.”

Megan Alletson, a journalism senior, is one of Stoeckel’s closest friends.

“[Stoeckel] really does adapt to any situation and I have yet to meet someone who didn’t like her immediately,” Alletson said.

“She makes a fantastic Miss Arizona because she breaks any negative stereotypes of pageantry. She is one of the most intelligent people I know, is obviously stunning and most importantly really cares about her platform and making a difference.”

Stoeckel’s platform includes child abuse prevention and awareness at the Southern Arizona Children’s Advocacy Center . She is currently on their board of directors and volunteers with them.

a range of information on Chinese culture, alongside interactive events for both adults and children. With free admission to the event, it is also an opportunity to get free admission to the Reid Park Zoo, Chen said.

The weeklong event aims to advance friendly and productive relations between the U.S. and China.

“It is important to me to be a part of the Confucius Institute because it gives me the chance to become a part of an organization that seeks to minimize the gap between two different cultures,” said Luchie Javelosa, a marketing senior and intern at the institute. “It is also exciting to be a part of a growing institute and helping them achieve their goals and mission while learning all about the Chinese culture.”

Additionally, there will be performances by martial artists and tai chi masters Junmin Zhao and Junjie Feng from Shaolin, China, who performed in the opening ceremony of the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games. Those performances will take place from

3 p.m. to 5 p.m. on Sunday in the Student Union Memorial Center Grand Ballroom.

Public health ambassadors will be conducting health screenings and visitors can pick up a free copy of the “Healthy Chinese Cookbook,” a collection of recipes by Tucson’s Chinese community.

“I have always been fascinated and intrigued by different cultures and traditions,” Javelosa said. “Being a Filipina, there is a lot of Chinese influence in my culture. It is great to learn more about where these influences originated from and seeing how these culture adaptations have been modified over time.”

The festival will end with a concert on Sept. 30 at 7 p.m. in the UA Crowder Hall, where visitors can experience traditional Chinese music, Chinese folk songs and choral masterworks by the UA School of Music and the Tucson Sino Choir.

“With over 800 Chinese students at UA from China, we have a very strong connection with China as far as an academic exchange,” Chen said. “Come enjoy the culture and take home a healthy message.”

Stoeckel is also active within the Boys and Girls Club.

“I want to take the time to empower the next generation in any way I possibly can. During my senior year of high school, I decided that was the one cause that I wanted to work for and improve,” Stoeckel said. “One of my closest friends in high school was abused and I remember thinking that was one of the worst things that could happen to an individual. I feel like that is what I was caused to serve.”

Stoeckel said she draws much of her inspiration from her family. Her older brother, Karl Stoeckel, was deployed to Afghanistan a week before his sister competed for Miss Arizona.

“He told me, ‘I want you to go into this wanting to serve while I am serving,’” Stoeckel said. “He inspires me every single day.

“I want to use this position to selflessly serve in Arizona. It is an odd dynamic for me this year because yes, I have these amazing things happening, but at the same time I am very humbled that a very important person in my family is in an extremely dangerous and

courageous position.”Laura Lawless Robertson,

who was crowned Miss Arizona in 2002, has known Stoeckel since she earned the crown in June. Robertson said Stoeckel’s dedication to her platform is what allows her to fit the Miss Arizona title so well.

“I think she is a woman of character,” Robertson said. “She is hard-working and devoted to what she does.

“Having walked in those shoes as Miss Arizona before, I know how important it is to be passionate. It is not measured by the fame you achieve but the change you make in the service of the state and she has that quality. On top of being beautiful and having the potential of doing great at Miss Arizona, she is a hard worker and as an Arizona sister, I treasure that.”

After the Miss America competition, Stoeckel said she hopes to finish her classes at the UA and get an internship for broadcast news.

“I’ve joked that I want to be Piper Stoeckel when I grow up, but in all seriousness I think she is a wonderful role model and no better person could represent the state of Arizona,” Alletson said.

inform students about what kinds of loans they can apply for.

As an employer for the Office of Scholarships and Financial Aid for two years, Torres is working with the office to be the students’ voice and express their concerns.

Torres added that his goal is to find out the most common mistakes students make when accepting financial aid, and make sure that the letters are clarified in such a way to curb those mistakes.

“If we tell that right away and we try to put that on there, they won’t make that mistake and it will be more smoothly for them to go about accepting their financial

aid,” Torres said.A test version of the letter will be

sent to students who are veterans, or rely on the GI Bill, and then the government will decide whether to implement the change or revise its approach.

The candidates for the ASUA senate special elections, to fill a seat that opened earlier this month, will be announced Oct. 4.

PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE MITT ROMNEY addresses supporters in a campaign stop at the Dade County Youth Fair Miami on Wednesday.

Romney vows to help poor, middle class

ATLANTA — Mitt Romney pushed back Wednesday against claims that he’s written off half the country and said he, not President Barack Obama, can better improve the lot of poor Americans.

“The question of this campaign is not who cares about the poor and middle class. I do, he does,” Romney said, his voice rising. “The question is who can help the poor and middle class. I can, he can’t, he couldn’t in four years.” The crowd of nearly 1,000, each of whom had paid at least $1,000, roared its approval.

In a 23-minute speech at a fundraiser at the Marriott Marquis in downtown Atlanta, the Republican presidential hopeful several times appeared to answer criticisms that arose from a video shot in May. The video, taken at a Florida fundraiser, was shot secretly and released this week by Mother Jones magazine.

In the video, Romney said 47 percent of the country pays no net income taxes, support Obama and “believe that they are victims, who believe the government has a responsibility to care for them, who believe that they are entitled to health care, to food, to housing, to you-name-it. … My job is not to worry about those people. I’ll never convince them they should take personal responsibility and care for their lives.”

Wednesday in Atlanta, Romney referenced the downtrodden often, to highlight the perceived failures of the Obama economy and to show empathy for their plight.

“This is going to be an election of a very stark choice,” Romney said. “The question is going to be who is better equipped and has better direction in mind to help the people of America who so badly need help. We have a lot of people in trouble.”

Romney also made reference to a video of Obama

that is now making the rounds. The Obama video, from 1998, shows the then-Illinois state senator saying he approves of some “redistribution.” Romney and Republicans have said Obama meant redistributing wealth, which they say is akin to socialism. Obama’s campaign said his fuller remarks show he meant redistributing government funds among agencies.

“He really believes in what I’ll call a government-centered society,” Romney said. “There are some people who believe that if you simply take from some and give to others we’ll all be better off. It’s called redistribution. A tape came out a couple days ago of the president saying yes, he believes in redistribution. I don’t.”

If elected, Romney said, he would fix America’s economy by doubling federal permits to drill for oil and gas, repeal the health care overhaul Obama championed and replace it with something else, stand up to China on trade issues and slash the federal deficit.

Romney was introduced by Gov. Nathan Deal, and the crowd included other top Republicans: House Speaker David Ralston, R-Blue Ridge, Lt. Gov Casey Cagle and Attorney General Sam Olens. Only Olens endorsed Romney in the primary. Deal co-chaired Newt Gingrich’s campaign and Cagle originally endorsed Texas Gov. Rick Perry. Ralston did not endorse a primary candidate.

Outside the Marriott, eight protesters from MoveOn.org and USAction, two liberal groups angry with Romney’s economic policies, had a problem with those plans.

Lydia Maestas of Atlanta, one of those protesting, said she is “honestly appalled by his statements. It just shows he believes it. He just doesn’t get it. We’re all retired. We worked all our lives and we’re part of the 47 percent and we’re not asking for handouts.”

LOS ANGELES — Actress Lind-say Lohan was back in the spotlight Wednesday following her arrest out-side a New York nightspot on sus-picion of leaving the scene of an ac-cident after a chef claimed her SUV clipped him, police said.

The arrest was a setback for the 26-year-old actress best known for movies such as “Freaky Friday” and “Mean Girls.” After several years of arrests and short jail terms, Lohan in recent months had gotten back to making movies. Lohan, however, re-mains on probation for shoplifting a necklace in 2011 in Los Angeles. Any prosecution in New York could po-tentially affect her L.A. case.

Los Angeles city prosecutors said that leaving the scene of an accident could be considered a violation of her probation and could result in potentially more jail time or com-munity service. But officials said that any action would be taken only if they received an official report from New York authorities.

Lohan’s publicist, Steve Honig, dis-missed the latest furor.

“While some of the facts are still being gathered, it appears that this is

much ado about nothing,” Honig said. “We are confident this matter will be cleared up in the coming weeks and the claims being made against Lind-say will be proven untrue.”

New York police said Lohan was ar-rested at 2:25 a.m. Wednesday as she left a luxury Manhattan hotel. About two hours before that, she had been driving a black Porsche Cayenne SUV down an alley near the hotel when she allegedly hit a 34-year-old pedes-trian.

She did not stop and entered the hotel, but one of her two male passengers allegedly spoke to the man, who complained that the slow-speed vehicle had struck his knee, police said. Lohan was ar-rested when she returned to her car, given a ticket at a local NYPD precinct and released.

Police said investigators do not believe that Lohan was intoxicated but acknowledged that no breath-lyzer test was performed. A source familiar with the investigation said security video was inconclusive in confirming the man’s allegation. Nonetheless, in an interview with the New York Daily News, chef Jose Rodriguez, who identified himself as the victim, said the SUV “hit me.”

I N T E R N S ! W A N T E D

LOS ANGELES — An actress who starred in “Innocence of Muslims” has sued the film’s producer and YouTube, claiming that clips from the controversial anti-Islam movie have led to death threats against her.

In a complaint alleging fraud, slander and intentional infliction of emotional distress, filed Wednesday in Los Angeles Superior Court, Cindy Lee Garcia said that after scenes from “Innocence of Muslims” posted on YouTube sparked Middle East protests early last week, she was subjected to “credible death threats” and was no longer permitted to provide child care for her grandchildren.

M. Cris Armenta, the lawyer representing the actress in the matter, said she would ask the judge assigned to the case on Thursday to issue an order compelling YouTube to remove the video immediately. “This is not a First Amendment issue,” Armenta said. “This is an invasion of privacy issue.”

Garcia said in her legal action that she was tricked into working in the film. Filmmaker Sam Bacile allegedly told Garcia that he was making a movie called “Desert Warrior” that was “an adventure film … about ancient Egyptians” and that there would be neither “references made to religion nor was there any sexual content” of which she was aware.

After the clips began circulating, the lawsuit says, Garcia was informed that “she was no longer permitted to see her grandchildren, whom she babysat regularly.” Furthermore, the complaint says, Garcia “was fired from her job as a direct result of the film, in as much as she is now considered a target and the safety of those in her presence cannot be guaranteed.”

The lawyer said Garcia “wants to clear her name, get the content taken down and let the world know that she did not consent to have her image used in this way.”

Clips from the film have triggered violent anti-American protests across the Muslim world.

A representative for Nakoula’s criminal defense lawyer, Steven Seiden, said the firm was not handling civil litigation for him. A representative for YouTube, which is owned by Google, was not immediately available for comment.

WASHINGTON — The United States can no longer afford to train foreign scientists and engineers and then send them back home to work for the nation’s competitors, say lawmakers who are expected to vote Thursday on whether to grant thousands of visas to highly skilled foreign-born graduates.

As an example, more than 20 percent of graduate students at Duke University in North Carolina are from other countries. Students from India, China and South Korea do ground-breaking research on cancer research, electromagnetics and space physics, among other fields.

“And the minute they graduate, we send them home,” said Christopher Simmons, associate vice president of federal relations for Duke University. “For as long as I’ve been in higher ed, there has always been a conversation about why do we do this. We’re going against our self-interest as a country.”

Democrats and Republicans appear to agree that there’s a need to retain highly skilled foreign-born graduates. But they’re still arguing over how to do it: Republicans would welcome 50,000 highly trained immigrants by cutting the same number of immigrants who now arrive through a random lottery. Democrats would rather add the extra science-related visas to the country’s overall immigrant intake. And despite the House vote expected this week, that partisan dispute could put off

final passage of a visa expansion until beyond the November election.

Supporters of increasing the number of science graduate visas are excited that lawmakers are now willing to address the issue apart from a more comprehensive immigration policy, as Congress has been reluctant to do before.

The House is expected to consider a bill Thursday introduced by House Judiciary

Committee Chairman Lamar Smith, R-Texas, that would grant 55,000 visas to foreign graduates in science, math, technology and engineering. The visas, for what are known as STEM graduates, would come from a pool of visas currently maintained by another program that would be eliminated — the diversity visa program. It awards 55,000 green cards a year to immigrants around the world in a lottery.

Democrats, however, are reluctant to agree with a bill that cuts into the diversity visa

program. Rep. Zoe Lofgren of California, the ranking Democrat on Judiciary’s immigration subcommittee, this month introduced a bill that would add 50,000 new green cards for STEM graduates without cutting the diversity visa program. Sen. Charles Schumer, D-N.Y., introduced a similar bill.

The diversity program has come under fire from conservative critics who say it fuels irresponsible immigration. Smith contends eliminating the diversity visa program tightens the country’s immigration policy by reallocating green cards to the best foreign graduates.

But critics, such as Rep. Luis V. Gutierrez of Illinois, chairman of the Congressional Hispanic Caucus task force on immigration, want some kind of compromise.

“Republicans are only willing to increase legal immigration for immigrants they want by eliminating legal immigration for immigrants they don’t want,” Gutierrez, a Democrat, said in a statement.

Advocates for creating a path for illegal immigrants worry that STEM legislation ultimately could increase labor shortages in other fields. Ali Noorani, executive director of the Washington-based National Immigration Forum, cited labor shortages in agriculture and argued for a compromise that “doesn’t rob Peter to pay Paul.”

“The issue is that while high-skilled immigration is important, we’re forgetting that we need high-skilled farm workers as much as we need high-skilled engineers,” Noorani said.

Congress honors Nobel winnerWASHINGTON — Myanmar’s

opposition leader, Aung San Suu Kyi, met privately with President Barack Obama after accepting Congress’ highest honor in an emotional ceremony Wednesday, signs of the stunning shift in U.S. relations with the onetime pariah Asian nation over the last year.

The Obama administration not only welcomed the former political prisoner and Nobel laureate, but it offered a gesture of goodwill by easing sanctions against Myanmar’s leaders, as Suu Kyi has urged since she arrived Monday on a 17-day U.S. tour.

The Treasury Department announced that it would remove President Thein Sein, a former general, from a list of people banned from doing business or owning property in the United States. Sein is scheduled to arrive in New York next week to address the U.N. General Assembly.

The leader in Myanmar’s lower house of parliament, Thura Shwe Mann, also was removed from the list.

The two “have taken concrete steps to promote political reforms and human rights, and to move Burma away from repression and dictatorship toward democracy and freedom, warranting today’s

de-listing action,” David S. Cohen, undersecretary of state for terrorism and financial intelligence, said in a statement.

Suu Kyi was released from 15 years under house arrest in late 2010 and was elected to the Myanmar National Assembly in April. In May, the Obama administration began removing unilateral sanctions on the nominally civilian government and later allowed U.S. investment to flow to Myanmar, also known as Burma.

“I stand here strong in the knowledge that I am among friends,” Suu Kyi said in the Capitol Rotunda as she finally accepted the Congressional Gold Medal, which Congress awarded her in absentia in 2008 when she was still confined in Myanmar.

The honor was “a moment for which I have been waiting for many years,” Suu Kyi said.

Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton, who first met Suu Kyi at her lakeside home in Yangon in December, embraced her and praised her for “moving from icon to politician” willing to work with her former jailers to help create civil institutions and democratic reforms.

Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., speaking on the Senate floor, said Suu Kyi’s story of courage “is so powerful it’s almost hard to believe it’s all true.”

Most students on the UA campus are used to seeing the occasional extremist preacher. However, this

year’s lot is shaping up to be a bit more permanent.

If you aren’t sure what I’m talking about, stop by the grassy hill located in front of the Administration building.

There you will find Brother Dean Saxton IV, who is studying religious studies and classics. Almost every afternoon, he stakes out in front of the hill with his staff and preaches to the masses.

But before you casually sit down, be warned: This isn’t your standard sermon.

Dean’s sermons follow fairly routine themes. He curses people who are gay, have pre-marital sex, masturbate or have lustful thoughts, to hell.

He arguably does this in the most attention-grabbing way possible, as when he shouts, “All you homos, you’re going to hell. All you masturbators, you’re going to hell,” while wearing a T-shirt that says, “You deserve hell.”

Saxton said the reason for his extremely intensive sermons is to scare people out of their ungodly practices, so they don’t end up in hell.

But he wasn’t always so radical. In fact, Saxton’s views on evangelism only changed last year. He was raised in a non-extremist,

Christian home by loving parents who encouraged their kids to attend church every Sunday and follow the fundamentals of Christianity.

He spent his freshman and sophomore years attending Christian college groups like the Branch, a college and career ministry of Catalina Foothills Church, and the Navigators, a UA Christian group. However, these groups had nothing to do with Saxton’s current views.

In fact, Saxton says they tried to deter him from his aggressive preaching. Several local pastors even asked him to stop preaching because he was offending students, but couldn’t convince him to change his ways.

“I was looking for a way to be on fire for God,” Saxton said. Brother Jed, an extremist pastor who visits the UA annually, eventually pushed Saxton over the edge.

Although Saxton acknowledges there are other methods of preaching, he believes his to be most effective.

“Jesus commanded us to preach, therefore other Christians should be willing to preach Christ’s message as well,” he said.

But the problem isn’t that Saxton’s preaching. It’s the way he preaches.

1 John 1:9 tells us, “Let us love one another, for love is from God, and whoever loves has been born of God and knows God. Anyone who does not love does not know God, because God is love.”

Saxton says his preaching may be abrasive, but he does love UA students. He just shows it by damning them to hell.

When asked whether he realizes that cursing students to hell doesn’t seem like love, he replied, “Yes, but they need to hear it.”

It may be hard to believe, but Saxton’s intentions aren’t totally evil. He truly wants to save people from his belief of the Christian

doctrine of eternal hell. Saxton doesn’t seem to

realize how terribly destructive his methods are. Judging people and damning them for their actions isn’t only inappropriate, it’s downright offensive.

Unfortunately, he is unable to understand that offended

people will continue to respond negatively and will most likely never change their ways.

While Saxtons’ reputation on campus grows, so does distaste for his abrasive and invasive preaching.

A better way to attract people to Christianity is by demonstrating God’s love through loving others, rather than trying to scare people out of hell.

Saxton has got it all wrong. As Ephesians 4:32 says, “Be kind to each other, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, just as God through Christ has forgiven you.”

After a month on campus, UA students are causing problems for nearby

residents once again.At last week’s Faculty Senate

meeting, after the mercurial relationship between the campus and its neighbors was addressed, President Ann Weaver Hart said students need to understand that “you don’t live in Yuma anymore. You don’t live in Flagstaff. You don’t live in Phoenix … You live in Tucson, and this is your home and the people with whom you live are your neighbors.”

But President Hart, we are treating Tucson as our home. The complaints occurred because we were entertaining friends in our humble abode, or we were having fun in this awesome town. We don’t live in North Philly, where the residents have bigger things to worry about than students being loud.

It may be the propellers of the helicopter on the weekends, the floodlight that travels close behind, the loud music and voices blasting out of hundreds of off-campus college residences, or even the voices carrying through the walls at 3 a.m. as students talk about how screwed they are for tomorrow’s test.

No matter how you look at it, we can’t deny that, as students, we’re pretty damn annoying.

But Tucson locals aren’t completely innocent either. What in the world did you think life would be like when you moved within a 4-mile radius of a college campus and one that is often ranked, not in U.S. News and World Report, but in Playboy magazine and Forbes magazine as one of the biggest party schools?

It’s completely unreasonable to think that life would be quiet and peaceful while those nice college kids next door do their homework and study in the library.

Compromise is necessary. The college students have

finished their homework and want to have fun, but the non-college aged residents have to work in the morning. The age gap is a nuisance, but it doesn’t have to define the relationship between the college and the neighboring community.

Students can be more considerate of others around them when partying. Let the neighbors know if there will be a big party and bake them some cookies or something, so they’re at least mentally prepared for the noise that awaits them. Not only would these tiny gestures help the neighborhood, they’d help prevent the infamous red tag, a fate every college student fears.

Residents of Tucson, cut us some slack. As 15-year resident Ajia Simone said in an article about the District on 5th apartment complex the Arizona Daily Wildcat published on Sept. 5, “Everyone is set in their ways, but we live in a college area … it’s just a part of the natural growth of the neighborhood.”

As the university grows, the space that students need increases as well.

It’s tiring having to face the noise weekend after weekend, year after year, and it’s frustrating to hear that you just have to let college students be college students.

So talk to the college students around you. If you let them know what’s bugging you, you’d be surprised to find that most are pretty accommodating.

Call us egocentric, spoiled, technology-obsessed youngsters, but sometimes we simply don’t realize we’re bothering you.

In response to “Anti-American sentiment in Middle East is cause for self-reflection” (Sept. 18):

No. Stop right there. You are a student of political science. You should know Constitutional Law. As someone who preceded you in the Political Science department, I’m incredibly disappointed that you think the solution to these problems is to throw the Constitution out and squelch free expression.

No, I don’t agree with the film and I don’t agree with the preachers who say we’re all going to Hell. Regardless of that, they are Americans and they have the right to speak freely.

The Constitution is the Supreme Law of the Land. You cannot subvert it. We all have a right to freedom of speech, freedom of assembly, freedom of religion, freedom of the press and freedom of petition to the government. Those freedoms cannot be abridged just because some short-sighted college

journalist thinks that it’s the easy way out of a problem.Seriously, you need some remedial Constitutional Law classes

immediately.— Kevin Wos

In response to “Senator pushes for additional rec classes” (Sept. 13):“The class would be a benefit for many students who don’t necessarily

have time to go work out, but would do it for a class.” What is that supposed to mean? Either you have time or you don’t. What

this means is those students do have the time except they’re lazy and only use that time if it boosts their grade point average.

Academic credits should be that: academic credits. A college degree should be based on academic pursuits and education, not tossing a ball back and forth. What’s next? Credits for playing video games? Playing the guitar?

Students should understand the concept of “academics” and “work” as opposed to “hobbies and spare time.” If we give academic credits for stuff any person should do anyway to stay healthy, we shouldn’t be surprised if our graduates spell “cirriculum” as it is spelled in this article.

Bye, bye, education. — Daniel Stolte

Finders key-persA University of Arizona Police Department officer

responded to a report of a suspicious person at the Communications building at 6:28 p.m. on Sept. 17.

According to the report, a man wearing a red shirt was trying to use a set of keys to enter the building. While he was en route to the building, a police aide told the officer that she had seen a person matching that description walking northbound on Park Avenue toward Speedway Boulevard. The officer found the suspect at the Circle K located at the intersection.

When the officer approached the suspect, the man was cooperative and gave the officer his name and age when asked. He also allowed the offcer to look at the key set he was carrying.

The man told the officer that he found the keys on the ground near Old Main earlier that day, and was trying to return them.

Initially, he told a woman nearby that he had found the keys, and she gave him the non-emergency phone number for UAPD. The man didn’t have a phone, and instead thought he might give the keys to a friend who lives in Coronado Residence Hall, but then decided he didn’t feel comfortable giving the keys to his friend.

He told officers that he went to buildings around Old Main to see if the keys unlocked any rooms so he could either steal and sell items inside, or find a place to sleep, since he did not have a place to live.

By this time in the man’s story, another officer had arrived and was searching a backpack the man had with him. Inside, the officer found a white Apple MacBook, which he said he received from a friend as payment for marijuana, and planned on selling for money to feed his child. Officers told the man that the laptop was stolen, and noted that the man did not seem surprised.

The man was arrested on charges of third-degree burglary and second-degree trafficking of stolen property, and was taken to Pima County Jail.

After returning to UAPD, the officer found a membership card on the key ring, confirming that the keys belonged to a UA student.

Take now, pay laterA UAPD officer responded to the bookstore at 10:28 a.m.

on Monday after an 18-year-old UA student was caught shoplifting.

Before the officer arrived, the woman was taken into custody by the bookstore security.

A bookstore employee said the student entered the store and walk around for about 10 minutes. She grabbed a pair of sunglasses from the display on the first floor and then continued to walk through the clothing section. Before walking out of the store, she sat down on a windowsill for a few minutes and played with the glasses.

The bookstore employee who witnessed the theft followed the student out of the store and asked if she still had the sunglasses. She admitted that she did and pulled them out of a pocket in her backpack. The price tag was no longer on the glasses. Later, the price tag was found on the windowsill where she had been sitting, valuing the glasses at $14.99.

The student said that where she is from, South Carolina, stores allow customers to take items out of the store without paying for them and then return later to pay for the items taken. She said that her intention was to take the sunglasses, go to the ATM to withdraw money and then return to the bookstore to purchase the glasses.

The student said she didn’t want to purchase the sunglasses with her credit card because then her parents would receive the bank statement.

The UAPD officer arrested the student on shoplifting charges and gave her a court date. She was then cited and released. The sunglasses were placed into evidence.

Seeing redA UAPD officer responded to a hit and run at about 3:55

p.m. on Monday. When the officer arrived at UA Lot 2012 on Warren

Avenue, he spoke with a senior library staff member who said that when she arrived to her car at 3:45 p.m. she noticed it had been damaged. She had parked her car at 10:45 a.m.

She found a scratch about 6 inches by 6 inches running through the middle of the passenger door, marked with red paint. There was another scratch above her rear passenger tire about 8 inches long and 1 inch wide, also with red paint.

The employee said that she wanted to take part in any further criminal proceedings. Photos were taken at the scene.

After six years of being on the outside looking in, the Arizona hockey team is ready to return to nationals.

The Wildcats used to be a fixture at the American Collegiate Hockey Association National Tournament. From 1983 to 2003, Arizona never finished lower than eighth in the national tournament, but since then the team has only made it to the big dance once, in 2005.

“That’s the only thing we want to do, is get there,” captain Brian Slugocki said. “Especially for us seniors, that’s the only thing on our mind and we’re going to do whatever it takes to get there.

“My freshman and sophomore year we relied on two or three guys to get all the points but now we have seven, eight, nine guys who can score on every night and will score on every night.”

Slugocki said the Wildcats no longer have to worry about players on the penalty kill or power play lines losing the puck.

“There’s just a lot more confidence for me looking down on the younger players because I know they’ve got the skill to get the job done,” Slugocki said.

Arizona returns three of its top five scorers, including junior forward Andrew Murmes, who had a team-best 52 points in 33 games. Senior forward Jared Lowell had 27 points and Slugocki had 24 points.

“I think we have a good group of veterans for leadership and I think it will be critical with that many new guys,” head coach Sean Hogan said of the Wildcats’ 11 newcomers. “It definitely should be a year where we take big steps forward.”

This is the first recruiting class for second-year coach Hogan, as his hire was too late last year to take part in recruiting.

“This is definitely the best we’ve had since I’ve been here, definitely the most depth,” senior defenseman Zack Waxenberg said. “Coach Hogan did a good job of bringing in a lot of good recruits.”

Last year the Wildcats were close to nationals with a 13-18-3 record, finishing ranked No. 25 and No. 16 in the computer rankings. Spots in

“This [Tuesday] is just our first day of on ice practice but I feel more prepared for the season than I have for any of the three years so far,” Waxenberg said.

College hockey blog thankyouterry.blogspot.com listed the UA as the No. 1 thing to watch in the ACHA Division 1, saying about Hogan, “In his second year in charge, he’ll attempt to navigate a daunting schedule worthy of the Icecats’ glory days with an roster that, on paper anyway, won’t give up much to their opponents.”

Arizona hockey ready for season

For three years, Oregon running back Kenjon Barner was the backup to LaMichael James. Now that James is in the NFL, Barner is the primary ball carrier for the Ducks.

On Saturday, the Wildcats will be tasked with stopping Barner. Barner ran for 72 yards and two touchdowns against the UA in 2011.

The Arizona Daily Wildcat spoke with Barner over the phone and talked about the UA, Chip Kelly and much more.

A lot of people expected you to enter the NFL Draft after last season. Why didn’t you?

Just taking the time to look back and reflect on the pros and cons of leaving and coming back, then also making a promise to my mom back in 2010 about getting my degree.

That played a major part and just talking to a lot of good people that led me in the right direction. I’m extremely happy. No other place in the world I’d rather be than right here, right now.

How does it feel to be the primary ball carrier after backing up LaMichael James the last few years?

It feels great. Just, I felt it was a long time coming to finally get the opportunity. It feels awesome.

What was, or is, your relationshp like with LaMichael?

That’s my best friend, he still is to this day. I talk to him every single day. Not a day that goes by that we don’t talk, whether it’s through text or over the phone, there’s not a single day that goes by. He’s like a brother to me.

How’s he liking it in San Francisco so far? (James plays for the 49ers)

He loves it. He can’t complain, he’s making money and after years and years of playing for free, he’s finally made it to where it’s paying off.

What have you seen out of (redshirt freshman quarterback) Marcus Mariota so far?

Nothing but good things. He’s been great … in that first game he was unbelievable in that first drive and in the Fresno State game he kind of

faced a little controversy, but I think everybody wanted to see how he would react to that, how he would bounce back from that.

I think he did an excellent job with that. Handling the team and handling the huddle. This kid has a very bright future. A very, very bright future.

How have you guys been so successful against Arizona in recent years?

You know, just playing Oregon football. Doing things the way we’re supposed to do them. Work ethic, constantly grinding and not getting high, not getting too low when we have errors and make mistakes. We have to play Oregon football. That’s the way you beat any team, not just Arizona. Just be yourself and play within yourself.

LaMichael ran for almost 300 yards against Arizona last year. Can you match that?

That was a different team, with a different coaching staff, and that was LaMichael. So you know, we’ll see what I’m able to do, as long as our line

Oregon’s Barner embracing role as primary ball carrier

It’s no secret that Arizona doesn’t have much of a pass rush.

So far the defensive line has produced just 18 percent of the team’s tackles — 38 total tackles over three games.

The two outside lineman in par-ticular have struggled at produc-ing pressure on the quarterback.

Only nose tackle Sione Tui-halamaka has even a half sack on the season while end Dominique Austin and tackle Reggie Gilbert combine for just 1.5 tackles for a loss.

Still, Rodriguez said he feels his defensive end has done OK this season.

“I don’t want to say [he’s] a surprise, but Austin has had a good year for us.” Rodriguez said. “It’s been solid, [Oregon] will be their biggest test.”

Another player Rodriguez

cited for his performance was part-time fullback, part-time de-fensive end Taimi Tutogi.

Tutogi has given the team a lift when he’s been in, Rodriguez said, and even with sophomore end Dan Pettinato back from in-jury, Tutogi will continue getting snaps.

“We have got to get more guys to play on defense,” Rodriguez said. “So probably [Tutogi] will play more defense.”

Another lineman who seeing his playing time increase is se-nior Willie Mobley.

“He’s really climbed the depth chart,” Rodriguez said about Mo-bley. “He’s a guy we weren’t sure was in the mix [in fall camp], now he’s in the rotation. Like a lot of the other seniors, I think he realizes this is his last shot. I’ve been really proud with the way he’s come on in the last couple of weeks.”

Mobley has five total tackles this season and recorded one

tackle for a loss in his three ap-pearances this season.

“He was producing in practice so he got a chance to move up [the depth chart], and he’s mak-ing the most of it,” Rodriguez said. “He’s played well in the games.”

Adjusting for AutzenAutzen Stadium is regarded as

one of the most intimidating and feared venues in all of college football and will be a real test for the Wildcats’ first road game.

“It’s a crazy environment,” defensive lineman Chris Mer-rill said. “It’s probably one of the coolest places that we’ve played in. The crowd really gets into it.”

Rodriguez said he has some concerns about communication among the offense because it’s still a new system. It’s still just 11-on-11 though, he said.

One way Arizona tried to pre-pare is by blasting the sound sys-tems that surround the practice

fields.“We do the speakers, try to put

them in stressful situations in practice,” Rodriguez said. “Then remind them to keep their poise when they go up there.”

Covering De’Anthony Thomas

The Ducks might have the Ve-gas spread firmly on their side, but another staple of Sin City is betting on Arizona — Lady Luck.

Oregon’s star running back De’Anthony Thomas graced the cover of Sports Illustrated this week, bringing with him the fa-bled cover curse.

Rodriguez said he hasn’t yet seen the cover, but that the soph-omore speedster is well deserv-ing of the honor.

“[Thomas is] fast, very fast,” Rodriguez said. “But he’s also a tough guy, he has great ball skills. He’s a guy everyone would want in their program.”

BROADWAYIN TUCSON

After two preseason meets, the Arizona wom-en’s cross-country team is ranked 12th in the country. A few senior runners on the Wildcats’ roster have taken on leadership roles, and none more so than Jen Bergman.

Entering her final year of eligibility, Bergman said she feels like Arizona still has a lot to accom-plish, and that she has yet to finish a season feel-ing satisfied with the team’s performance.

“Since my freshman year, we have never left na-tionals satisfied,” Bergman said. “We always end the season knowing we could have done better.”

Since 2009, Bergman’s freshman season, the Wildcats have slowly moved up in the national standings, from the 30th spot at the end of the 2009 season to No. 14 at the start of this season.

“Finishing stronger this year than last year should be a piece of cake,” Bergman said. “I want to leave Arizona knowing in my final season I helped the whole team finish happy and satisfied with our nationals race.”

Head coach James Li has been critical of Ari-zona’s performance in recent years and has stressed the importance of performing as a solid unit. He wants his captains to be pushing each other to succeed.

“Being one of the leaders, Jen [Bergman] needs to always do her best and support,” Li said. “I look for her to not only support but also moti-vate each of the girls and encourage the team.”

Even though the season is still in its early stag-es, Li appears to be satisfied with how Bergman has worked within her leadership role.

“She can be and always has been a great positive influence,” Li said. “The rest of the team really looks up to her for leadership. She is an

incredible, positive influence on the rest of the girls.”

Bergman was held out of Friday’s preseason race at Del Urich golf course, as were most of Ari-zona’s top runners. Junior Elvin Kibet, who won the race for the women, said she believes that Bergman still has an influence on the team even when not running with it.

“It was a little different not having Jen [Berg-man] there. I’m used to running alongside her,” Kibet said. “Having her run alongside with me really helps me keep a good pace and pushes me. But even when she’s not running with me, she’s always there supporting me.”

Bergman and Kibet have formed a strong re-lationship at the UA, and it can be seen in their results. Bergman and Kibet constantly finish side by side at or near the top of competitions. Now the duo is trying to get the rest of the Wildcats to work alongside them.

“In past years, it’s just been me and Elvin [Ki-bet] working out together, which is why I think we have such a great relationship,” Bergman said. “But this year we’ve been getting a lot of the other team to work out with us, which the rest of the girls see and helps motivate them to work harder and want it more.”

Last season Bergman earned sixth-place fin-ishes in the Pac-12 championships and the NCAA west regionals and a 12th place finish at nationals. She said she believes she has worked hard and is ready to leave Arizona cross-country on top of her game. With her first race just a week and a half away, Bergman is far from nervous about her final season as a Wildcat.

“I’m excited and ready for the season,” Berg-man said. “My realistic goals are to do the best I can do and to help the team end the season bet-ter than our expectations.”

Forward Hannah Wong is only a freshman on the Arizona soccer team, but she’s already making a big impression.

“She plays the game very well and very clean,” head coach Lisa Oyen said. “I’ve had several people come up to me after the game ask-ing, ‘Who is your number seven? Where did you find her, because that kid is going to be unbelievable,’ and we agree.”

Hailing from New Zealand, Wong began playing soccer with friends through her school team at age 9. She didn’t seek out the position of

forward inten-tionally.

“It kind of just hap-pened,” Wong said. “The teams I played for always put me in the posi-tion of forward,

so I just stuck with it.”

As a sophomore in high school, Wong’s team won the title of Na-tional Secondary School in 2009 from a national championship in New Zealand.

“It was awesome because we went into penalty kicks in the finals

and we won on the last shot,” Wong said. “It was just an overwhelming experience.”

In her junior year, Wong was invited to join the under-17 New Zealand national team for the 2010 World Cup in Trinidad and Tobago.

The World Cup qualifiers were in New Zealand and the team came out as the champion with three shutout performances against the Solomon Islands (10-0), Papua New Guinea (9-0) and Tonga (18-0).

Wong played in the first and last games of the qualifiers, scoring two goals and eight goals, respectively. She was the leading scorer for the tournament.

Even though the under-17 New Zealand national team lost all three games of group play in the 2010 World Cup, Wong clocked 134 minutes and started in the game against Japan.

“It’s an indescribable feeling to be able to play for New Zealand,” Wong said. “All your hard work pays off and getting to play in such a high level of competition is pretty cool. The best part is standing at the beginning when we are lined up next to teammates, listening to the national anthem and wearing the colors proudly.”

By her senior year, Wong knew she wanted to play in the U.S., so she began researching schools.

“I got in contact with the coaches here,” Wong said. “I liked the cam-pus and the team because the girls were really nice. Also the soccer team is in a good conference, which was something I was looking for.”

As a Wildcat, Wong has made her mark in just seven games, dishing out a team-best three assists and making eight shots on goal — good for second on the team.

“She brings a lot of creativity to the team because she sees the game different than most people do,” junior forward/midfielder Jaz-min Ponce said. “She’s on another level because she can read players well and is able to switch the dy-namic of her game.”

UPCOMING GAMES

we were last year for sure, we should be able to get scoring from more than one or two lines.”

The Wildcats lost forward Brady Lefferts, forward Blake Richards, defenseman Geordy Weed and defenseman Jonathan Watanabe. Lefferts and Weed were assistant captains, Lefferts was second in scoring with 50 points, Richards was third with 30 points and Lefferts and Watanabe starred for a North American all-star team over the summer.

“We’ll miss all those guys,” Hogan said. “All those guys brought something special to the program. They were a big reason that we had some success last year.”

The Wildcats face a tough schedule that

includes a month-long road trip to start the season. All but 10 of their 38 games are against ACHA Division I teams that last year ranked in the top 15.

“I think it will be a huge help,” Waxenberg said. “In the past we did not even play enough DI games to go to nationals and now we have as good a schedule as anybody in the league. We play all the top teams, all national competitors and I think we have as good a chance as anyone to go to nationals with the team and depth that we have.”

Nine of Arizona’s 11 transfers were recruited and two made the team through tryouts. Notable transfers are junior forward Ansel Ivens-Anderson from NCAA Division I New Hampshire, sophomore forward Jason Effertz from NCAA UMass-Dartmouth and sophomore defenseman Matt Nowicki from ACHA Davenport University.

does a good job I think I can have a pretty good game.

What was your reaction when Arizona fans stormed the field during the Oregon-UA game in 2009 [Barner’s freshman year]?

You feel disrespected. There are four minutes left in the game. You have people coming down, I’m like, “What?” I think we all felt disrespected. There’s four minutes left and you already want to come on the field and that’s what I remember from that game and just that feeling of just complete disrespect.

Did that help you guys make the comeback and win?

We had it in us to do it. We just have to execute, that’s what it came down to. Their fans played no part in that.

Were you surprised about Stanford upsetting USC last week?

That’s Pac-12 football. You never know who can win, you never know who will win. Like I always say, you just have to be the best on the field that day.

It was rumored over the summer that [Oregon head coach] Chip Kelly would be leaving to coach the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. How did you react to that?

I just wanted to sit and be quiet and see because none of us really knew what was going on, we just wanted to see what came about. As an individual you have to make the best decision for you. But I was happy for him to come back.

What’s he like as a coach? He’s a great coach. He’s a genius. I’ve said

it time and time again, I’ve never some across someone with the type of genius Coach Kelly brings to this team. Just his ability to come up with things, it’s crazy. It’s hard to explain but he’s an absolute genius.

said he is striving to land a deal that would provide DirecTV customers with the ability to watch Pac-12 sports.

“We are certainly working on it,” Reynolds said. “Our goal is to get 100 percent distribution, and obviously that would include DirecTV.”

According to Reynolds, DISH and 40 other providers have agreed to a deal similar to the one that DirecTV declined.

“They [DirecTV] offer more sports than anybody,” Reynolds said. “For whatever reason, they have been pretty straightforward in their statements and have expressed no interest to make the same deal that the other providers have accepted.”

The conflict between the Pac-12 and DirecTV has impacted many bar and restaurant managers as they are forced to choose between the NFL Sunday Ticket, which is available exclusively through DirecTV, and the Pac-12 Network, which is available through local cable providers. The Pac-12 has been the exclusive channel provider for two of Arizona’s three football games so far, plus the upcoming game against Oregon State.

Chris Sisneros , manager of Big Willy’s Restaurant and Sports Grill on 6th Street and Fremont Avenue, was forced to get Cox Cable in addition to his DirecTV subscription so that he could show the Pac-12 network as well as keep DirecTV’s NFL Sunday Ticket.

“We’re paying two bills each month.” Sisneros said. “It’s an extra $400 a month for one channel.”

Sisneros said he sees the additional monthly expenses affecting his business.

“I have to stay with DirecTV,” Sisneros said. “The only reason we are with DirecTV is for their football package. Otherwise, we would be with Cox.”

DirecTV’s slow response is reminiscent of its deal with Big Ten Network, which took four years of negotiations before contracts were signed. Some Pac-12 fans are hopeful that the Pac-12 Network will agree to a deal in the near future, which isn’t lost on Reynolds.

“We will continue to work with Pac-12 Network to resolve this for the benefit of both fans and non-fans alike,” Reynolds said. “While our ultimate goal is full distribution, now that we have DISH, everyone has an option.”
