The University of Mississippi’s Clinical Disaster Research Center is working with UM’s Incident Response Team to improve disaster preparedness.

BY SUMMER WIGLEY thedmnews@gmail.com

The University of Mississippi Clinical Disaster Research Center is conducting surveys to gather data on students’ perceptions of disaster preparedness to improve the current disaster procedures for the university.

Comprised of graduate students and researchers from the university’s department of psychology, the center focuses on research, service and education in clinical disaster psychology.

Bethany Aiena, graduate student in the clinical psychology doctoral program, said that the center is working with the university Incident Response Team on the project.

“We hope to use what we learn to better prepare the UM community through things like training programs and other informational outlets so that everyone on campus knows how to respond responsibly in any type of disaster situation,” See DISASTERS, PAGE 4 PHILLIP WALLER | The Daily Mississippian

O.U.T. extends hours due to safety concerns The Green and Brown routes of O.U.T have now extended operating hours to 9 p.m. and more will be expanded in the fall.

BY JENNIFER NASSAR thedmfeatures@gmail.com

Director of Parking and Transportation Services Isaac Astill discussed schedule changes that were made to the Oxford University Transit sys-

tem last week due to safety concerns about students walking across certain streets in Oxford.

“The Green and Brown route have been extended to operate until at least 9 p.m.,” Astill said.

The Green route will make its last pickup at the Student Union, go around campus, stop

one more time at University Avenue and Old Taylor Road and make its last drop-off at The Connection at 9:15 p.m.

The Brown route will make its last pickup at Paris-Yates Chapel at 9:10 p.m. and do its last drop-off at the Jackson Avenue Center at 9:15 p.m.

Astill said the two routes were expanded for safety reasons.

“There is no crosswalk or access point for people to get across certain areas like Jackson Avenue and Fraternity Row,” he said.

The Office of Outreach and the Office of the Provost agreed

to fund the additional hours.

Astill said the funding will help the O.U.T system until more extensions are implemented.

“All the O.U.T routes will be expanded in the beginning of the school year next fall,” he said.

These changes come as the health of our citizens has reached a crisis level. According to Lynn House, interim state superintendent of education, in 2004, research determined that more than 43 percent of Mississippi children were obese or overweight. House said that if that trend were to continue without any efforts to curb children’s waistlines, 65 percent of our population would be classified as obese by 2030.

These numbers put not only our residents at risk, but our state as well. Mississippi has more residents on Medicaid than any other state.

According to the American Academy of Pediatrics, more than 50 percent of Mississippi children are enrolled in Medicaid.

With the Let’s Move! campaign, our youth are learning the importance of healthy eating and an active lifestyle.

Some students may not being getting this type of education at home or have access to healthy food at home. Fast food is cheap and easily accessible. In the Mississippi Delta, crops are often harvested and shipped to retailers who, due to the sparse population and low income of the Delta, are located far from the area.

Horse meat, beef, what’s the difference?

THOMAS GRANING | The Daily Mississippian

People buying processed food in 14 European Union nations have reported horsemeat instead of beef in some frozen food.

BY E. M. Tran emtran3@gmail.com

I guess it’s good when your worst news is that horsemeat’s being switched out for beef in your frozen meals. Good job, Europe.

Horse meat has mysteriously turned up in food, mostly in processed meals and frozen dinners, in 14 EU nations. There’s actually nothing wrong with eating it, it’s simply culturally abhorrent. It’s kind of like eating dog or cat—I could actually find a number of countries that find cooking up these creatures in stir fry totally acceptable.

The real issue is not that horse meat is inedible, it’s that the horse meat was totally unlabeled. Consumers were eating their delicious, sodium and

preservative-filled shepard’s pie ready meal with the belief that those ground up meat chunks were the remnants of Bessie the cow, who lived a long and wonderful life grazing grass.

I should try harder to disguise me disdain for society. I understand, eating something thinking it’s one thing and finding out it’s another is terrifying. It’s unregulated, and it’s fraud.

Whoever’s putting the horse meat in the mix of the totally complex food supply chain is trading this much cheaper product for beef and then pocketing the cash. With the economic crisis not far behind us, lingering in our homes and at our jobs, there is a huge quantity of unwanted horses that rich people with racehorse

gambling problems and barns and equestrian children, can no longer afford. Seabiscuit never expected IKEA meatballs to be his ultimate fate.

See? I get it. But it’s hard to feel bad when we’ve set ourselves up for this to happen.

Our demand for lots of meat and unreasonably low prices is absurd. The way we raise animals for slaughter is totally disgusting. This scandal is happening in Europe, but it’s a reflection of our privileged, capitalistic first world society.

If you look at the US food industry, which is totally opaque, by the way, it’s easy to imagine this happening in our own Lean Cuisines and sausage pizza Hot Pockets. The rising price of corn, which we feed our cows to fatten them up extra fast so they can speed on to

the slaughterhouse, and which is not a part of their natural diet, is the cause for the rising price of beef here on our own American shores. The ease with which I can imagine a horse meat headline on the front page of the New York Times is scary. US meat suppliers (and to give you some perspective, there are four firms that control over 80% of beef slaughtered for the entire country) are absolutely greedy and corrupt enough to participate in a cash-pocketing scheme such as the one we are witnessing overseas.

I’m not a hippie vegan that works for PETA and only eats ethically grown alfalfa sprout wheatgrass smoothies. I eat meat almost everyday. I participate in this food game where no one knows the rules. That doesn’t mean I can’t look with a critical eye on where my food is sourced.

If we don’t become more educated about our food, we aren’t innocent. That’s what this whole horse meat debacle says to me; it’s a reminder that most of us are all passive beings that take our processed foods without question.

Only when it’s discovered by chance, then we become outraged. Did anyone taste their frozen lasagna and exclaim, gee whiz, this doesn’t taste like beef? The truth is, few people examine or pressure our food providers to be ethical; our unquestioning purchasing habits allow companies to act the way they do.

By providing fresh fruits and vegetables and other health options for students at lunch and breakfast, we are greatly impacting the health of our kids. Hopefully this focus on health will flow from the schools to the community, bringing nutritious options and access to healthy food to all of our citizens. By trimming our waists, we are expanding our potential. A healthy future is a bright future for the state of Mississippi.

Floyd-Thomas said that some things that were true 25 years ago remain valid today in regard to the generational quest.

“The fact remains that regardless of the dismal circumstances

Assistant professor of religion Sarah Moses said she thinks Floyd-Thomas’s work shows that one’s intellectual and scholarly work can have direct relevance to the real world.

“I hope the lecture deepened students’ appreciation for the importance of studying black American and women’s experiences as vital to American history,” Moses said. “I also hope that the lecture provides an example of the way in which a topic like race can be addressed in a constructive, thoughtful manner that deepens our un-

derstanding of one another.”

Arguing that progress is not a product of isolated labors, Floyd-Thomas called attendees to action.

“I hope that we will all embrace a more holistic and integrated sensibility,” FloydThomas said.

“This grant was provided to the state of Mississippi following the Gulf oil spill to provide mental health services to Mississippi individuals that were affected by the spill,” Aiena said.

According to Aiena, the center collaborated with 19 mental health agencies on the Mississippi Gulf Coast.

“We had to assess psychological variables, services

provided and treatment outcomes in the wake of the Gulf oil spill,” she said.

Aiena said she wants people to be more prepared and make safe decisions in the event of a disaster.

“We want the community to not only know what to do, but to be confident that they could have a plan to keep themselves and others as safe as possible through informed and educated decision-making in the event of a disaster,” Aiena said.

Tennis opens conference play The Ole Miss men’s and women’s tennis teams begin SEC play this weekend with Alabama on Friday and Auburn on Sunday. The Lady Rebels will be at home this weekend, while the men are playing away.

Lady Rebel Netters welcome two top-20 teams on SEC opening weekend The Ole Miss women’s tennis team, ranked No. 42 in the nation, opens Southeastern Conference play this weekend as it hosts No. 5 Alabama Friday and No. 17 Auburn Sunday.

“It’s very exciting,” head coach Mark Beyers said.

“We’ve got a top-five and a top-20 team coming into town right away, so we don’t waste any time as far as getting right into the swing of things.

“The SEC, from a tennis standpoint, is a great conference. With both Alabama

and Auburn, we’ve got some great rivalries going.”

The Rebels (2-4) are coming off a 6-1 loss to then-No. 16 Virginia this past Saturday. In singles, junior Caroline Rohde-Moe is ranked No. 39 in the nation and holds a 4-2 record at No. 1 singles.

Alabama (8-1), which has four players in the national rankings, has won its last four matches, which included three top-25 opponents.

Auburn (10-1), which moved up 42 spots in this week’s rankings, is off to its best start in school history and rides a 10-match winning streak, the longest in school history.

Friday’s match starts at 3 p.m., and Sunday’s match starts at 1 p.m.

Rebels Netters open SEC play on the road Coming off a 4-2 win against No. 63 Memphis Wednesday, the No. 13 Ole Miss men’s tennis team hits the roads for the start of Southeastern Conference play. The Rebels (6-2) face No. 31 Alabama Friday, followed by No. 32 Auburn Sunday.

“Everybody wants to knock Ole Miss off,” head coach Billy Chadwick said.

“The truth of the matter is, with the conference this year, it’s a free-for-all, and it’s going to come down to matches very similar to (Wednesday’s match against Memphis) and who wins them. We got two big ones on the road coming up, and so we need to start off and get two victories.”

Ole Miss has four nationally ranked players, led by senior Jonas Lutjen and sophomore Nik Scholtz. The duo, ranked No. 5 in the nation, has helped the Rebels win the doubles point in six of eight matches. In singles, Lutjen is ranked No. 5 and holds a 4-1 record at No. 2 singles. Scholtz is ranked No. 12 and holds a 5-1 record at No. 1 singles.

Alabama (9-3) has two nationally ranked singles players, while Auburn (8-2) has one, in addition to the nation’s top-ranked doubles team of senior Andreas Mies and junior Daniel Cochrane.

Friday’s match starts at 3 p.m., and Sunday’s match starts at 1 p.m.

No. 10 Kentucky cruises past Lady Rebels Ole Miss dropped its final home game of the season to No. 10 Kentucky, 90-65. The Lady Rebels will wrap up their season with a matchup at Arkansas Sunday.

BY JOHN LUKE McCORD mccordjohnluke@yahoo.com

There was some emotion in Tad Smith Coliseum on Thursday night. Two Lady Rebels were playing in their final game at home in Oxford.

Seniors Maggie McFerrin and Courtney Marbra were honored on Senior Night before the Rebels tipped off against No. 10 Kentucky. For McFerrin, a former walk-on, this was her first start of the season. Marbra made her 28th start as she has started every game this season.

“It’s so much fun to get to honor the players that have come through your program,” head coach Brett Frank said.

“Tonight we got the opportunity to celebrate two very special young ladies.”

The Wildcats (24-4, 12-3) had their way early and often. Kentucky led 21-6 at one point in the first half. By halftime, the lead was 37-18. The Rebels (9-19, 2-13) pulled to within 16 at 37-21 early in the second half, but that was as close as they would get.

Kentucky turned the Reb-

els over 21 times. The Wildcats also won the rebounding battle, 57-38, with 27 of those rebounds on the offensive end. Those 57 boards were the most allowed by Ole Miss this season.

“Rebounding is an effort stat,” Frank said, “And tonight we did get our tails kicked on the defensive end of the floor.”

Perhaps the brightest spot on Thursday night was sophomore forward Tia Faleru.

The Ozark, Ala., native came off the bench to give the Rebels 14 points and 14 rebounds, her fifth career double-double. Sophomore forward Danielle McCray added 12 points of her own.

While Marbra’s night was cut short when she fouled out, and Maggie McFerrin was subbed for with less than a minute remaining, both seniors walked off the court to applause in their final home game.

The Rebels will complete their season Sunday in Fayetteville against the Arkansas Lady Razorbacks. The game will tip off at 2 p.m.

REBELS,

continued from page 8 on six hits with seven strikeouts and seven walks.

Sunday’s starter remains up in the air, but the Rebels hope to send sophomore right-hander Chris Ellis to the mound. Ellis, who has been rehabbing a pulled abdominal muscle, did flat ground work Wednesday, according to Bianco, and was scheduled to throw a bullpen session Thursday.

“Hopefully, he will get the start on Sunday,” Bianco said of Ellis. “He will probably throw a couple innings just to try to work him back into it. Not necessarily pitch count, that’s part of it, but probably more so that we don’t push him with the pulled ab and don’t go too far with it.”

If Ellis isn’t able to go Sunday, look for sophomore righthander Sam Smith to get the start. Smith started last Sunday in place of Ellis when he earned a no-decision after giving up two runs on five hits with three

strikeouts and three walks in 3.1 innings of work.

The pitching staff will have their hands full with an FIU team that enters the series batting .329 as a team. The Panthers will be led by Edwin Rios, who boasts a .455 average through nine games with 10 doubles. T.J. Shantz will provide the power for FIU, having already hit three home runs on the season.

The Rebels will be led by junior catcher Stuart Turner, who leads the team with a .357 batting average, two home runs and 10 RBI. Sophomore center Auston Bousfield leads the team with 11 runs hits, followed by Turner and senior left fielder Tanner Mathis with 10. The Rebels enter the weekend with a .271 batting average.

Game one of the three-game set begins at 5 p.m. tonight. Saturday’s contest will begin at 3 p.m. with the series finale set to start at noon.

Warren’s school record with 111 3-pointers made this season.

In their earlier meeting, Ole Miss defeated Mississippi State, 93-75, in Oxford. The 75 points were an SEC high for the Bulldogs.

Henderson scored 31, while Holloway 24 in the Rebels’ rout. Sophomore guard Jarvis Summers, a Jackson native, said he expect Mississippi State to be amped for Saturday’s rematch.

“They (are) playing Ole Miss,” Summers said. “It’s a rivalry. They (are) going to give 110 percent.”

Mississippi State is the only SEC team without a player averaging in double figures, but boast six players who average between 7.8 and 9.8 points per game. Freshman guard Craig Sword, who led the Bulldogs with 17 points in the earlier meeting, also leads the team in scoring, averaging 9.8 points per game.

For Ole Miss, freshman forward Anthony Perez suffered a sprained MCL in Wednesday’s game against Texas A&M. According to a team’s spokesman, Perez is day-to-day. Ole Miss is now down to just nine scholarship players and two walk-ons.

BY ALLISON SLUSHER ajeslushe@go.olemiss.edu

The Ole Miss softball team (12-8) looks to extend its eight-game winning streak as it heads to Orlando to play in a threeday, five-game tournament hosted by Central Florida this weekend.

“I want to see everybody hitting on all cylinders,” head coach Windy Thees said. “I’d still love to see all nine girls in the lineup hit-

Southeastern Conference) sits in last place in the SEC and carries a 13-game losing streak, while it’s RPI is also worst in the SEC at No. 239.

A loss to the Bulldogs would be far more damaging to the Rebels’ tournament chances than an earlier one-point loss to South Carolina.

“I’m just trying to grind to get these wins, try to get to the tournament and be as successful as I can,” senior forward Murphy Holloway said.

The Rebels (21-7, 10-5) once again find themselves on the bubble and look to finish strong to get into the NCAA tournament. Ole Miss is currently on a two-game winning streak and has won three of its last four games.

BY MATT SIGLER mcsigler@go.olemiss.edu

The Ole Miss baseball team will make its first road trip of the 2013 season this weekend to Miami to face the Florida International Golden Panthers in a three-game series. The Rebels (8-1), ranked No. 8 in the nation, are coming off a midweek split with Memphis and Arkansas-Pine Bluff, while FIU (7-2) enters the weekend after splitting with Texas A&M. “They’ll play hard, and they are always offensive,” head coach Mike Bianco said of FIU. “(Head coach Turtle Thomas) is a tremendous recruiter. His whole career, he has been noted as one of the best recruiters in the country. They’re going to be very good.”

For a lot of guys on this year’s team, this will be their first road trip in their careers at Ole Miss.

“We always like to go one

weekend kind of as a dry run,” Bianco said. “I say that not figuratively, it’s not that it’s spring training or practice, but it is the first time a lot of these guys have ever traveled with us, first time plane, bus, meetings, that kind of stuff. We call it a business trip.”

Ole Miss will send junior right-hander Bobby Wahl to the mound Friday as he looks for his third win of the year. In two starts, Wahl has pitched a combined 11.1 innings and given up only one run on five hits with 12 strikeouts and nine walks.

Junior right-hander Mike Mayers will get the nod Saturday for the Rebels, still in search of his first win of the season after picking up two no-decisions to start the year. Mayers has pitched a combined 10.2 innings and given up two runs See REBELS, PAGE 7
