Movie review: ‘The Imitation Game’
Rep. Alan Nunnelee’s legacy impacts university students MAGGIE MCDANIEL

Alan Nunnelee debates challenger Democrat Brad Morris at the Overby Center for Southern Journalism and Politics at the University of Mississippi Oct. 25, 2012 preceeding his election.
U.S. Rep. Alan Nunnelee, a Republican and Mississippi native, died Friday at the age of 56 after a year-long battle with brain cancer. For the past year, Nunnelee had been treated for brain cancer, after a tumor was discovered last spring. He was reelected in November, but because of his condition, he was unable to take the oath of office at Capitol Hill. On Jan. 12, according to CNN, he was sworn into office at a medical center in Mississippi. Fourteen days later, on Jan. 26, he was placed in hospice care. Many political figures made statements mourning his death, including President Barack Obama, House Speaker John Boehner and Sen. Thad Cochran. Nunnelee was viewed as a man of strong faith, according to a statement made by President Obama. “Michelle and I were saddened to learn of the passing of Representative Alan Nunnelee,” Obama said. “A proud son of Tupelo, Alan never wavered in his determination to serve the men and women who placed their trust in him, even as he bravely battled the illness that ultimately took his life. As
a Sunday School teacher and a deacon at his church, Alan believed deeply in the power of faith and the strength of American families.” Not only did he leave an impact on political leaders, but he was also seen as a political icon whom many University of Mississippi students admired. Former Associated Student Body president Gregory Alston, an Ole Miss graduate and firstyear law student, worked as a field director for Oxford on Nunnelee’s campaign in 2012. Alston did not know Nunnelee beforehand but was able to become more familiar with him through working on his campaign. He saw Nunnelee as a selfless person – a man who wanted to help his state in every way possible. “Everywhere we would go during the campaign, he would talk about what the people need, what he can do and what he wanted to do to help the state of Mississippi,” Alston said. “He just really put others before himself.” During his term as ASB president, Alston tried to think about how people in leadership positions standup for what they believe in and try to do the right thing without conforming. “(Nunnelee) was a great example that I looked up to, be-

New fire station construction nearing completion GRACE MURPHY
gkmurphy@go.olemiss.edu
The construction on the new Fire Station No. 1, located on McElroy Drive next to the Oxford Post Office, is nearly complete. The construction began last March and the estimated open date of Dec. 1 was delayed due to construction issues. Despite the delay, Oxford Fire Department Chief Cary Sallis said they hope to move in to the new station within the next week. The new fire station will replace the existing Fire Stations No. 1 and 2. The districts will change since they now have only three houses instead of four, according to Sallis. The new location was cho-
sen due to the recent growth in Oxford. Sallis explained the relocation of the station will increase efficiency when responding to calls in the areas near the station. After the completion of Fire Station No. 1, the next step for the department is to begin the planning for a new Fire Station No. 2. The new station will be located on Sisk Avenue near the Oxford Conference center. The start date for the construction on the new Fire Station No. 2 will be discussed in the next budget meeting, according to Sallis. He described the process of moving stations to “be like playing checkers.” “We are just waiting to make our next move,” Sallis said. Meanwhile, the firefighters
are eager to move into the new station. “We are very excited,” Lafayette County firefighter Anthony Bonner said. “The new station will give us more room to maneuver around.” Bonner explained he cannot wait for all the new amenities the new house will have. This includes its own gym equipment, an area for the firefighters PHOTO BY: CADY HERRING to hang out and a Oxford Fire Department Fire Station No. 1 is seen Thursday, Feb. 5, 2015. fire pole, which they do not have in the who attend The University throughout the current four current house. of Mississippi, according the operating houses.

Far too often, we allow others back into our lives who have done things in spite of us. These actions usually hurt us emotionally, mentally or physically; however, we tend to disregard the actions because we care about the perpetrator. This quality is referred to as selfless and unconditional love. It is safe to say that most individuals strive to obtain these qualities in order to find inner peace. The ability to forgive those that have wronged us allows us to flourish. We are able to see life more clearly when we accept what has come to us. Society, itself, thrives on this mantra: Self second, others first. While I would have to agree that this ideology fosters peace in our community, I would have to argue that there is a difference between forgiveness and allowing yourTHE DAILY

self to be an “enabler.” Here, “enabler” refers to someone who allows their situation to repeat itself. In respect to enabling others, we all have the obligation to hold those around us accountable for their actions, especially those actions that are harmful to us. In our pursuit to purge our souls of anger, we tend to paint over our wounds. We invite those that hurt us back in because we aspire to feel at peace within, but it affords them an opportunity to harm us again. This is very clear in cases of infidelity. Romantic relationships are magical in that they involve a connection between two people who have given up a part of themselves to find another. This affection transcends any levels of space and time. It is for this reason that forgiving a partner who has broken your trust is almost natural and acceptable. Because we’ve placed so much of ourselves into this other person, we

hope to reconcile and fix the behavior of the cheater. In essence, we are fixing ourselves by changing them. This, my readers, is not a good habit. When we continue to allow those partners back into our lives, we are showing signs that their behavior is not bad. We are showing that cheating is routine and acceptable as long as it is followed by “I’m sorry.” Such behavior is evident in other relationships as well. Friends who tell our secrets, coworkers who expect their work to be done by others and, for educators, students who always have an excuse as to why they haven’t done their homework are all examples of situations we enable by too readily accepting apologies. In order to combat this behavior, it is important that we find ways to forgive their wrongs but not allow ourselves to constantly accept apologies. Changing the way we for-

Our accountability is the door to our happiness and playing the role of “enabler” does not fit this bill. Holding ourselves accountable translates to the accountability of others. Thus, we do more good in this than we do by allowing and enabling behavior we do not agree with. KP Maye is a sophomore education major from Gulfport.

The blotter comes from reports released by the Oxford Police Department. It does not include crimes reported by university or county law enforcement.
Burglary at Lafayette Court Apartments At approximately 3 a.m. on Monday Feb. 2, officers responded to Lafayette Court Apartments near Elliot Drive where a caller reported hearing glass breaking in the complex. As officers responded, they saw a white car leaving the complex. A traffic stop was made after the car ran the stop sign at South Lamar and Belk. As the officers were on the traffic stop, responding officers discovered a burglary had occurred at the complex. An investigation began with the occupants in the car, and officers discovered stolen property inside the suspect’s vehicle. Officers were able to contact the property owner and match the items in the car as being the items stolen from the complex. The property was returned back to the complex, and officers arrested three people, Ashley Wagner (18) of Abbeville, Kenneth Johnson (21) of Abbeville and Damarius Caruthers (25) of Abbeville. All three were given an initial appearance yesterday at the Lafayette County Justice Court where they were each given a $10,000 bond.
Suspect surrenders himself after assault
On Nov. 21, 2014, the Oxford Police Department received a video of an assault that occurred around Nov. 12. Detectives went and located the victim and spoke to him in reference to this incident. The suspect, Quentin Fronczak (19), was identified in the video hitting the victim with what appeared to be brass knuckles. During the investigation it was also learned that Fronczak went into the victims residence and took several items. After multiple attempts to locate Fronczak in Oxford and his home in Biloxi, he turned himself in on Jan. 29, 2015. Fronczak was charged with burglary and aggravated assault. Fronczak was given a bond of $10,000. Briefs don’t include every incident from the last week, and suspects are presumed innocent until proven guilty. Reports compiled by Clancy Smith.

Oxford bowling center to open in April KYLE WOHLEBER
kmwohleb@go.olemiss.edu
The Oxford Commons bowling center is scheduled to open to the public in mid-April. The center will be located at the Oxford Commons next to the Malco movie theater. “It’s dependent on the construction schedule, but we hope to have it opening in mid April,” said Rick Bourgeois, vice president of Malco bowling operations. Bourgeois has been running the bowling operations for Malco for over 30 years. He has opened bowling centers in Jackson, Memphis, Tennessee and cities on Louisiana. The bowling center offers many entertainment options for all ages. “It’ll have all of the newest bowling equipment, including interactive scoring, which is the newest version available anywhere in the world,”
Bourgeois said. “We’ll have 14 lanes worth of regular bowling area — the furnishings now are more like couches — and a standard seating arrangement.” There will also be separate areas in the bowling centers for people looking to have their own private event and have privacy from the rest of the bowling lanes, including an area which can seat a party of over 100. “We have a VIP bowling area with six lanes where the lanes are spaced out more than standard separations,” Bourgeois said. The bowling center offers a full service cafe and bar for bowlers, with the VIP area having its own separate bar area. Bourgeois said the bowling center will not be a place consumed by bowling leagues. “We try to always make sure that we have lanes open to the public, so there is al-

ways an opportunity waiting for the public,” Bourgeois said. “We don’t want it filled up with leagues. League play would mostly be early on Monday through Thursday, and the VIP area will never have league play in it and will be open for people who want to come and bowl on an impulse.” In addition to the bowling lanes, the new addition to the Oxford Commons will offer an arcade area. “We will have a redemption area, which uses a pre-loaded card swipe,” Bourgeois said. “Everything will be electronic. If you walk in, and you want to play the games, and you put $5 in, they’ll have $5 on a credit card, and you can use that anywhere in the bowling center. The card will also keep track of the amount of tickets won, so that you can redeem those for prizes.” The theme of the bowling center will be unique to Oxford and The University of Mississippi. “We’ve one something that is a special thing, which is indigenous to Oxford,” Bourgeois said. “Our masking units are specially made to where we are. The whole bowling center is themed around Ole Miss and the campus.” Bourgeois said the bowling center will appeal to people of all ages. “It’s available for someone who wants to be in an area with a birthday party and if someone wanted to have a private bachelor party or a
sorority function in the VIP area. They could do that, and they wouldn’t even be around where the kids are,” Bourgeois said. “If someone wanted to have a league going on at the same time, those areas are all separate. We have walls that can be moved to isolate different areas if they want to have separate events.” Both students and locals are excited that Oxford will have another source of entertainment that won’t be dependent on the university. “Oxford is way overdue for more sources of entertainment,” said junior real estate major Thomas Galvin. “I’m glad this planned unit of development is bringing bowling to the community, and I might think about starting a bowling league.” “I think the new bowling alley is going to be great,” Oxford resident Jacob Rinker said. “It’ll be nice to have other activities in this town for all ages. I know I’m looking forward to it.” The main message Bourgeois hopes to send is the entertainment factor for the public. “Malco is celebrating their 100th anniversary of being in the movie theater industry and 60 years of being in the bowling industry,” Bourgeois said. “We’re excited to have the opportunity to put the two next to each other for families and friends to be entertained.” The bowling center will host a job fair the third week in March.

continued from page 1 cause he was very firm in what he believed in while also listening to other people,” Alston said. Senior public policy leadership major Taylor Lowe interned in Nunnelee’s office last July. Because Nunnelee was recovering during the time of her internship, she was unable to meet him in person. However, Lowe noticed that the office she worked in was a reflection of him. “His office was family-like, and I feel like it was altered in that way because of him,” Lowe said. “He was always very interested in what was going on, and I think it probably upset him that he was not able to be present and represent to the best of his ability.” Pearce Crosland, junior integrated marketing communications major and vice chairman of the College Republicans had the opportunity to meet Nunnelee when he visited Washington, D.C. He sat down with Nunnelee along with a few others and had lunch. He described the experience as nerve-wracking at first. “However, 10 minutes into it, it was like I was sitting at Ajax with a group of buddies just shooting the breeze,” Crosland said. “He made everyone feel like he was a regular person and was a great person to get advice from.” Within 60 days, according to Mississippi election law, Gov. Phil Bryant will have to set an election date to fill Nunnelee’s vacant seat. The election itself must take place no more than 60 days after that. Alston, Lowe and Crosland all believe that the person who is elected to take Nunnelee’s spot will have big shoes to fill. “I know whoever takes the role knows they are not going to be an Alan Nunnelee,” Crosland said. “There was no one like him, and he cannot be replaced. We lost a one-of-a-kind individual.” Nunnelee’s funeral will take place today at 2:30 p.m. in Tupelo at Calvary Baptist Church.

‘The Imitation Game’ COLTON HERRINGTON cjherri1@go.olemiss.edu
Rating: A
Under director Morten Tyldum’s guidance, “The Imitation Game” is among the best of the biopics released in 2014. Based on the life of British hero and cryptanalyst Alan Turing, who famously cracked Nazi Germany’s Enigma machine and cipher code during World War II, “The Imitation Game” approaches his story in a calculating method that results in an impactful, streamlined narrative. “The Imitation Game” recreates the character on which it focuses both creatively and technically. Channeling the methodological energy of Turing himself, the film focuses on three major periods in his life - extracting the most pertinent details of each timeframe in such a precise way that a summary of Turing’s complexity develops, transforming him from a daunting enigma into someone painfully affecting and tragic. In a way, those involved – specifically director Morten Tyldum, writer Graham Moore and actor Benedict Cumberbatch – collectively crack the code that is Alan Turing. British import Cumberbatch proves himself a true talent to audiences on this side of the pond. Cumberbatch brilliantly and deftly exploits Turing’s dual nature; both Turing’s loner, rigid outward appearance and sensitive, misunderstood inner qualities are child’s play in Cumberbatch’s able hands. At times, Cumberbatch is almost inhuman, a living machine with a single purpose - to decipher the Nazi German code. His robotic determination and aloof persona – symptoms of his extreme intellect – render him almost unapproachable to those around him. But, as the events unfold across the two timelines of Turing’s adult life, Cumberbatch slowly sheds Turing’s mechanical outer shell, revealing the complex, tender, emotional circuits hidden beneath. Assisting the war effort and arriving to Bletchley Park in 1939, Turing joins and further assembles a team of cryptanalysts tasked with cracking the Nazi code, a team that includes Hugh Alexander (Matthew Goode) and Joan Clarke (Keira Knightley) under Commander Alastair Denniston (Charles Dance). It is here where we witness Turing’s relentlessness and self-prescribed isolation, and it is also here where we watch as both qualities are challenged and subsequently evolve, especially as he grows close to Clarke and
learns to work with the others toward their shared goal. While the entire supporting cast performs top-notch – including Mark Strong as Major General Stewart Menzies, Allen Leech as John Cairncross and Rory Kinnear as Detective Nock – the most refreshing turn comes from Knightley as Clarke. Signature pout aside, Knightley carefully brings the headstrong character of Joan Clarke to life - highlighting the complex nature of the relationship between her and Turing. Their dynamic is pivotal in revealing a caring, delicate side of Turing otherwise unseen, save in flashbacks from his adolescence. As Turing recounts his life to Detective Nock (Kinnear) in 1951, the plot thread involving his time at a boarding school in 1927 (relative newcomer Alex Lawther plays a young Turing dutifully) serves to further illustrate Turing’s emotional development and homosexuality. The manner in which director Tyldum, writer Moore and actor Cumberbatch tenderly treat this subject is a triumph for the LGBTQ community and one of the most laudable elements of the film. By honestly and heartbreakingly depicting Turing’s cruel
ment like this again. Adapted from Andrew Hodges’s “Alan Turing: The Enigma,” Graham Moore’s screenplay is complex, with every line and discourse functioning to paint as richly colored a portrait of Alan Turing as possible. Set to the alternately haunting and urgent score composed by Alexandre Desplat, the film ultimately becomes a well-oiled machine purposed with the sole task of decrypting Turing’s life. “The Imitation Game” received eight nominations – including Best Picture, Best Director (Tyldum), Best Actor (Cumberbatch)
GRAPHIC BY ALLI MOORE
and Best Supporting Actress (Knightley) – at the upcoming 87th Academy Awards, the third highest number of nominations among all films honored this year. As one of the best films of 2014, director Morten Tyldum and actor Benedict Cumberbatch have been put on the map stateside, and Keira Knightley has been given a well-deserved and major boost in her career. However, most importantly, “The Imitation Game” beautifully fulfills its purpose in sharing an unsung hero’s story with the world.

punishment under anti-gay laws, the film serves dually as a message for tolerance and as a warning against discrimination. Rather than being treated as a national hero for the work that resulted in shortening World War II by an estimated two years, Alan Turing was treated as a criminal because of his sexuality. This film works to bring his tragic life to light – and the lives of 49,000 other men similarly effected – in the hopes that no one will be subjected to lawful-but-unfair treat-

Rebel Softball wins 2, loses 2 at Kajikawa Classic REBELS FALL 6-3 AT NO. 16 ARIZONA STATE
TEMPE, Ariz. – Junior pitcher/first baseman Madi Osias hit a two-run shot to create a one-run game in the sixth, but the Sun Devils responded with a three-run inning of their own as Ole Miss (1-2) fell to No. 16 Arizona State (3-1) by a score of 6-3 Friday night at the Kajikawa Classic. A pair of long balls provided the runs for the Rebels as freshman in-fielder Alex Schneider hit her first collegiate home run in the seventh inning. Osias (1-2) suffered the loss for the Rebels, allowing six runs – four of them earned – on five hits with six walks and three strikeouts. Osias pitched 5.1 innings in the game. Freshman pitcher Breanna Macha (2-0) picked up the win for Arizona State, allowing three runs on six hits with a walk and five strikeouts through 7.0 innings of work. “I felt like we battled with them after getting down to a good hitting team on a couple of pitches,” said Ole Miss head coach Mike Smith. “After that tough inning, Madi (Osias) really settled down and really pitched a good ball game. Tip your cap to Arizona State’s pitcher for that performance as a freshman – to mix up her pitches the way she was and keeping us off balance. But we kept battling and adjusting inning by inning and were able to make it a game there at the end.”

Anthony Perez becoming an X factor for Ole Miss basketball BRIAN SCOTT RIPPEE
bsrippee@go.olemiss.edu
For the first 18 games of the year, junior Anthony Perez was an after thought. After having a significant role in his first two seasons, his role in the 2014-15 season greatly diminished. He spent most games buried on the end of the bench, his playing time became very seldom. Perez’s struggles shooting the basketball and his inability to defend left him with no way to contribute consistently for the Rebels. Perez has always been a “hybrid” player. He has the size of a forward but does not contain the physical attributes of a low post player. He, at times, has the shooting ability of a guard but not ball handling skills to fill a guard spot. Likewise, on the defensive end, Perez’s physical make up has made it difficult for him to find a place. He struggles defending against stronger players in the low post and does not posses the quickness to defend one-on-one in the back court. That all changed during the Florida game just over a week ago. Perez entered the game midway through the second half against Florida. He popped off of a screen set for senior Jarvis Summers and quickly hit a three pointer to give
Anthony Perez and Sebastian Saiz attempt to block in a game against Texas A&M earlier this season. Ole Miss a four point lead that proved to be a momentum swinger in a huge comeback win for the Rebels. This marked the beginning of the emergence of Anthony Perez. In the last three games, Perez has gone 5-11 from the three point range and pulled down nine rebounds. Perez has seemingly found his role and has the potential to turn into a huge weapon for the Rebels off of the bench as they make
a run at an NCAA Tournament berth. Perez’s size accompanied with his ability to shoot the basketball really allows him to stretch the floor at the 4 position. At 6-foot-9, 185 lbs., Perez creates quite a mismatch for opposing defenses. If he can continue to shoot the three ball on a consistent basis, he will make the Rebels extremely difficult to defend. Perez could in theory play any position 2-4,

making him an extremely versatile offensive weapon for Andy Kennedy. His ability to shoot accompanied by his length that lets him get to the rim makes Perez very dangerous coming off of ball screens. With an already very deep bench, Kennedy now has the luxury to play some very big lineups at times that can be a nightmare for opponents to try to guard. On the defensive end, the

amount of zone the Rebels have played this season, especially in conference play, has allowed Perez to fit in better on the defensive end of the floor. He can play any of the five slots in a very active 2-3 zone that the Rebels have primarily played this year. He also can cause many problems with his length at the top of a 2-2-1 half court trap that has proved successful for for Ole Miss. Being 6’9 with a long wingspan essentially allows Perez to play any position of any zone Andy Kennedy calls. This could prove to be a truly invaluable piece in March. What was once a glaring weakness for Perez could now be a very vital weapon for this team going forward. Ole Miss ranks number one in the country in zone defense efficiency and can now become even tougher with Perez. If Perez’s man-to-man defense can improve, I see him having no problem staying in Andy Kennedy’s rotation. According to Joe Lunardi’s Bracketology, the Rebels have now slid in the field of 68. There is much work left to do for Ole Miss with a crucial stretch of games coming. The emergence of Anthony Perez could prove to be an essential asset to Ole Miss’s NCAA tournament run.
