POLLEN COVERS CAMPUS, FLARES ALLERGIES AND TEMPERS

VINCE DAVIS | The Daily Mississippian

Pollen on the windshield and hood of a car in Oxford.

BY KAYLEIGH SKINNER kaskinne@go.olemiss.edu

Anyone who has visited Ole Miss during the past few weeks has probably noticed the sudden explosion of pollen that is a result of the recent warming trend. Botany expert and post-

doctoral research associate Vijayasankar Raman said the pollen count for April 9 was 276, much higher than the count of 30 taken a week before. The pollen count is a number that represents how many grains of plant pollen were in a cubic meter of air during a specific period of time.

According to Raman, the sudden increase in temperature triggered high pollen production from several types of trees and grasses. “Warm and windy weather, as we are seeing now, increases the mobility of pollen grains,” he said. According to Raman, the plants primarily responsible

for the large amount of pollen produced during the spring in Mississippi are eastern red cedars, oak trees, red maple trees, elm trees, European alder trees and several types of grasses. Mississippians can expect this pollen to be around in high numbers for a few more weeks, but rain or cold air may lower the amount in the air. “Peak flowering of trees will gradually subside from May onwards, and thus tree pollen counts may decrease,” Raman said. According to Raman, pollen grains are male reproductive spores produced by plants that allow the female plant to produce seeds. These plants rely on factors such as the wind, bees, hummingbirds and other animals to help transfer the pollen grains to the female plants. Raman said the yellow dust many people find on their cars and other surfaces is pollen that did not reach the female flower. Senior forensic chemistry major Sara Dempsey said the pollen on her gray car is frustrating, but she is grateful it does not affect her health. “It doesn’t really bother me personally since I don’t have bad allergies,” Dempsey said. “But I know my roommates and friends, they’re sneezing

all over the place because of it.” Junior music education major Katie Shuford shared Dempsey’s frustration with pollen coating her car, but she said she was more irritated with how it has affected her body. “It’s not helping my general health,” Shuford said. “I’m a music major and I sing, so that’s a problem when there’s so much pollen.” Sandra Bentley, director of the Student Health Center Pharmacy, said the Health Center has noticed an increase of students coming in for allergy problems, but this increase is common each year in April. To help cope with this pollen outbreak, Bentley suggested the use of antihistamines such as Claritin or Zyrtec. This should help with allergy symptoms such as itchy eyes and runny noses, but more severe allergies require a visit to a health care provider for prescription products. “Most of the pollen allergies are caused by the trees, grasses and other weeds with small and non-showy flowers,” Raman said. Raman suggested that people stay indoors between 5 a.m. and 10 a.m. or when it is warm and windy out because pollen levels are usually higher during these times.

Travel Channel to feature Oxford restaurant and bar Lamar Lounge BY MICHAEL QUIRK mequirk@go.olemiss.edu

The Travel Channel’s new show “Burger Land” will feature Oxford’s Lamar Lounge on April 29 at 9 p.m. George Motz, hamburger expert behind the book and documentary “Hamburger America,” is the host of “Burger Land.” Among the 150 different burger joints featured in Motz’s guide, few have the simplicity of Lamar Lounge. Lamar Lounge executive chef Charles Owens said

that the secret to the Lamar Lounge burger is high-quality beef that is seasoned well and cooked properly. The restaurant opened on Aug. 22 of last year, serving only hamburgers, veggie burgers and a chicken sandwich. Owens and manager Lucas Singh have since expanded the menu to include items such as shrimp etouffee and fried pork skins, and they believe that being featured on “Burger Land” will help to grow the success of the restaurant.

“We’re very pleased to have our business on the Travel Channel” Owens said. “Any kind of exposure is a good thing, and we’ve already seen an influx of people just by knowing we will be on (‘Burger Land’).” According to Lucas, Lamar Lounge generally serves an adult crowd in a laidback atmosphere, which helps with business. “It’s the old-timers from Oxford that make this place. It’s more laidback –– lots of See LAMAR, PAGE 3

As finals are fast approaching, I find myself struggling to find motivation. I teeter on the tightrope between the two different trains of thought. One is that good grades and socialistic achievement are key to success, and the other is that determination, timing and connections are what land you on the cover of Forbes Magazine. I find myself going back and forth thinking, “Will these grades even matter in the long run?” and “If I don’t get good grades, I’ll never get a good job.” There is no clear answer

to which way is the right way. If you were to take a look at some of the most successful people in the world, they are almost equally divided onto these two pillars. Some worked to get into the top schools and made the top grades, and their success continued to grow from there. On the flip side, you have people who barely passed college, if they even graduated, and end up owning some of the most successful enterprises in the world. Some people fall into great jobs because they knew the right people and had a charismatic personality. Others have gotten the top jobs because their resumes and scholastic accolades were the best of the bunch. Some people make the cover of Time Magazine before the age of 30. Others are bare-

In your quest to determine which path to success is best, you can read countless self-help, secretto-success books or, for the less literarily inclined, scroll through inspirational quotes on Pinterest and Thought Catalog, and still not be any closer to an answer. Chasing the key to success will only lead you to run around in circles no better off than before you started.

The person on your right might be scrapping for passing grades now but end up with a building or whole college named after him by your 25th class reunion. Success is a hard-to-define benchmark with a virtually unlimited amount of means to achievement.

It was a fun and exciting thing.”

Ole miss Relay for Life set for Friday Night

Crews seek survivors, bodies after Texas blast

FBI issues photos of 2 suspects in Boston bombing

The University of Mississippi’s Relay for Life event begins tonight at 6 in the Circle. This is the fourth-annual relay held by the university and all proceeds will benefit the American Cancer Society. The walk will begin at 6 this evening and last until 6 Saturday morning. Cancer survivors will be honored in the night’s events and will be escorted into the circle by members of the Columns Society. This relay is separate from the Oxford-Lafayette event and is a student led-initiative.

WEST, Texas (AP) — Rescuers searched the smoking remnants of a Texas farm town Thursday for survivors of a thunderous fertilizer plant explosion, gingerly checking smashed houses and apartments for anyone still trapped in debris or bodies of the dead. Initial reports put the number of fatalities as high as 15, but later in the day, authorities backed away from any estimate and refused to elaborate. More than 160 people were hurt.

BOSTON (AP) — The FBI released photos and video Thursday of two suspects in the Boston Marathon bombing and asked for the public’s help in identifying them. The photos depict one man in a dark baseball cap and the other in a white cap worn backwards. The men were seen walking together in the crowd, and the one in the white hat was seen setting down a backpack at the site of one of the blasts, said Richard DesLauriers, FBI agent in charge in Boston.

First annual Oxford beer festival to be held at Castle Hill The first annual Oxford Beer Festival will be held this Saturday and Sunday from 1-6 p.m. at the Colonel’s Quarters at Castle Hill Resort. The beers to be sampled hail from all over the world, including Japan, Germany, Ireland and throughout the United States. General admission includes a sampling mug, 140plus craft beers to sample during the five-hour event, live entertainment, games and access to the Brew University area. Those who purchase VIP tickets will be admitted to the festival one-hour early, have access to a VIP lounge, and be given even more beer sampling options and complimentary food.

In the Brew University area, experts will be teaching on topics such as how to cook with beer, brewing 101 and pairing beer with food. Brewmasters from places ranging from Maine and Louisiana to Mississippi will be speaking. “It’s going to be a good learning experience,” event organizer Darryl Parker said.”There will be some home-brewers here too, talking about what is happening in the state of Mississippi with the home-brewing laws.” He also said that among the vendors there will be a woman selling soap with a beer aroma. “She usually sells out so it is definitely worth stopping by.” Regardless of the ticket

Lady Netters advance in SEC Tournament STARKVILLE, Miss. —The No. 9 seed Ole Miss Women’s tennis team defeated No. 8 seed South Carolina on Thursday, in the second round of the SEC Tournament, at the A.J. Pitts Tennis Centre. With the win, the Rebels improve to 16-12 overall and will play the No. 1 seed, Georgia Friday at 8 am CT. South Carolina took the first lead of the match by winning the doubles point, at courts one and two. The Rebels came back in singles winning four first sets, and were able to defeat the Gamecocks 4-3. Rhode- Moe, who is ranked No. 44, clinched the victory for Ole Miss by defeating No. 83 nationally ranked Jaklin Alawi of USC in three sets. “It was a great comeback win after losing the doubles point,” Head coach Mark Beyers said. “ South Carolina is a very solid team, and it took an amazing effort from all of our players to beat them. We are looking forward to playing Georgia tomorrow.”

Softball hosts No. 2 Tennessee BY Allison Slusher ajslushe@go.olemiss.edu

The Ole Miss softball team will have a tough task at hand this weekend as it hosts No. 2 Tennessee in a three-game Southeastern Conference series beginning today at the Ole Miss Softball Complex. Junior pitcher Carly Hummel continues to lead Ole Miss (22-26, 2-16 SEC) with another dominant outing in the Rebels’ win over Louisiana Monroe on Wednesday. Tennessee (39-6, 12-3 SEC) has won 16 straight games, including a sweep of Auburn last weekend and a midweek win over Appalachian State. “The biggest thing for our girls to understand is if we come out and every player has a good game or a great game, we’re going to win,” head coach Windy Thees said of facing Tennessee. “We have that kind of talent.” The Lady Vols are led in the circle by sisters Ellen and Ivy Renfroe. Junior Ellen (13-1) boasts a 1.46 ERA in 119.2 innings of work and has racked up 135 strikeouts on the year with 44 walks.

Lindmark dropped the first set, 6-3, then won a second-set tiebreaker 7-6(7) to force a third and deciding set. He went up a break, 5-4, but Alabama freshman Becker O’Shaughnessey broke back to 5-5, and then broke Lindmark again to win 6-3, 6-7 (7-9), 7-5 at No. 3 singles and tie the match at 3-3. “We knew that it was going to be tough,” head coach Billy Chadwick said. “We did a really good job on Stefan’s match, coming back in the second set, positioning ourselves to win, served for it, but couldn’t get it. Their guy picked it up and really played well at the end of the match.” In the deciding match, it was sophomore Nik Scholtz, ranked No. 15 in the nation, against fellow countryman, Alabama senior Jarryd Botha, ranked No. 73 in the nation, at No. 1 singles. Scholtz dropped the first set in a tiebreaker, 7-6(5), then got an early break and won 6-4 in the second to force another third and deciding set.

as Botha won 7-6(4), 4-6, 7-5. “Nik knows him well,” Chadwick said. “Nik has played him a bunch of times. It’s always close. Nik always wins, though. It was one of those matches where you have to give him a lot of credit. He played really, really well.” Ole Miss, ranked No. 6 in the nation, moves to 15-8 on the year with seven top-25 wins, which includes a win against No. 2 Georgia, two wins against No. 7 Tennessee and a win against No. 9 Mississippi State. “You don’t ever know, but we feel like that with the wins that we have that we’re in strong enough position that we’ll be in strong consideration for hosting,” Chadwick said.

Austin Anderson turns to bunt during Saturday’s game versus Alabama.

Sophomore right-hander Sam Smith will close things out for Ole Miss on Sunday. He will be making his ninth start of the season, and is 2-0 with a 3.78 ERA. Senior righthander Zack Godley will toe the rubber for the Volunteers in the series finale. He is 3-4 with a 3.26 ERA in 11 appearances, nine of which are starts. At the plate, Tennessee is led by sophomore infielder Will Maddox, who enters the weekend with a team-leading .357 batting average and 51 hits. The Volunteers are hitting

.281 as a team, and Maddox is one of four players hitting over .300. Tennessee will also look for junior outfielder Pierce Bily to continue to drive in runs after leading the team with 22 RBIs through 34 games. For the Rebels, junior catcher Stuart Turner continues to pace the offense. Turner leads the team with a .380 batting average, 49 hits, three home runs and 36 RBIs. Sophomore center fielder Auston Bousfield has also had recent success at the plate, bringing his average up to .297, and is second on

the team with 44 hits. It remains to be seen how much of an impact junior shortstop Austin Anderson will have this weekend. Anderson exited last Sunday’s series finale against Alabama after tweaking his hamstring. Head coach Mike Bianco held Anderson out of this week’s two midweek games hoping he will be good to go today.

Men’s tennis upset in SEC quarterfinals BY AUSTIN MILLER akmiller90@gmail.com

Freshman Stefan Lindmark served for the match for No. 5-seed Ole Miss, up 5-4 in the third set, but No. 12-seed Alabama rallied for a 4-3 win in the second round of the Southeastern Conference Thursday. “It was going to go down to the wire,” head coach Billy Chadwick said. “It was a couple of matches that when you look it, we didn’t play our best tennis.” The match lasted nearly six hours, which included a 46-minute rain delay that forced the conclusion of singles play inside from the Palmer/Salloum Tennis Center to the Gillom Sports Center. Ole Miss won the doubles point, which started on the far three courts of the Palmer/Sallou, while Vanderbilt-

After play resumed, sophomore William Kallberg held serve and then broke to win 6-2, 7-5 at No. 4 singles. Minutes later, senior Jonas Lutjen, ranked No. 16 in the nation, was broken and lost 2-6, 5-7 at No. 2 singles, which set up a thrilling conclusion with the two remaining singles matches.
