with 45 seconds remaining in the game. A missed shot tipped around and
eventually ended in the hands of Stoudamire with 25 seconds to go, and no shot
clock to worry about. [Read

Devils, Cats battle to finish regular season
The No. 11 Arizona men's basketball team has one more chance to put itself in
line for the Pacific 10 Conference title and solidify its postseason status.
The Wildcats (24-5, 14-3 Pac-10) travel to Tempe to take on ASU (18-11, 7-10)
at 4 p.m. tomorrow.
With a win, Arizona forces Washington to sweep California and Stanford tomorrow
to get a share of the regular season Pac-10 title.
"I don't think (head) coach (Lute Olson) will tell us (if Washington loses). If
it does happen, like, they lose. I think it will give us that extra little
initiative," said senior center Channing Frye, who hails from Phoenix. "But at
the same time, I don't think we need anymore reasons to go out there and play
the best we can." [Read

The quiet rustle of blue books is the only noise to break the silence of the
classroom. You're hastily scrawling answers when you notice it - the eerie but
somewhat familiar feeling of someone else's eyes on your paper. You look up,
only to catch a classmate's expression as he looks away, unconvincingly
feigning innocence.
Such a scene may be fictional, but it's certainly not that far removed from the
reality of higher education. The notion of academic integrity seems to be under
siege, with the number of infractions seeing a marked increase in recent
decades. Apparently, some students have what can most charitably be described
as a casual relationship with honesty. And their numbers are growing. [Read

When Saul Williams puts beats to his poetry, the man becomes more than just an
emcee or a modern troubadour.
He becomes what we all fantasize being: a rock star.
Having released his self-titled album in September, Williams returns to Tucson
next Wednesday to give us all a taste of his latest poetic musings when he
performs at City Limits.
Most reputably known as one of the most talented spoken word poets the world has
ever seen, Williams is an actor, a rapper, a singer and a preacher. And he's
actually good at them all, but doesn't take kindly to his music being
categorized. [Read

Hookah offers safe and relaxing alternatives
College students are always looking for the newest, hippest and easiest trends
to keep their bored little minds occupied. While smoking weed will always be
fashionable, it's illegal too. As an alternative, locals, young and old, are
getting together to smoke the legal way, with the help of the hookah.
The pastime has become even more popular in Tucson since Roger Smiley and his
wife Sarah opened Smiley's Ultimate Hookah Lounge and Coffee last year. [Read
