Turner Center ‘bursting at the seams,’ expanding BY KATELYN MILLER kamille3@go.olemiss.edu

The Turner Center will undergo improvements and expansions this year that will provide for more activities, more space and more equipment. According to Joshua Harrington, an employee of the facilities operations branch of the Department of Campus Recreation, the renovations will interrupt some services offered by the Turner Center, but the result will be worth it. “You won’t be able to rent a locker for a while,” he said. “But there will be more lockers to rent as soon as the work is done.” In addition to areas for new activities, a portion of the expanded space will go to support activities that have recently experienced high levels of interest. “We’ll be getting new multi-

purpose rooms downstairs for fitness classes, because those are really popular,” Harrington said. Excluding students who take classes at the Turner Center for academic credit, the building sees between 2,500 and 3,000 gym-goers daily, and the 30-year-old facility is “bursting at the seams,” according to Director of Campus Recreation Bill Kingery. Sophomore biochemistry major Madeline Hudson often attends yoga classes at the Turner Center. “It’s crazy the number of people who get turned away from fitness classes like Zumba and cycling because they just can’t accommodate them all,” Hudson said. The current expansion project is accepting donations from the general public to help see the construction work through. The Turner Center has received funding from

Ole Miss Relay for Life will host a 5k relay Saturday for the American Cancer Society’s Relay for Life. The Relay for Life organization is a nationwide fundraising effort that collects donations to go toward the American Cancer Society and raising awareness. Relay for Life at Ole Miss celebrated Paint the Campus Purple Week in September and will now kick off the first relay for the 201314 school year. Adam Blackwell, co-chair of Relay for Life at Ole Miss and senior public policy leadership major, has been preparing Saturday’s events for months. “This is Relay for Life’s fifth year at Ole Miss, and we’re excited about Saturday’s 5k for a Cure,” Blackwell said. The cost to participate is $25 per person, and $15 per person for groups. Participants will receive a T-shirt for the event, and all proceeds will go to the American Cancer Society.

The Lafayette County Board of Supervisors has turned down a request for resort status to serve alcohol at the Goose Creek Club of Oxford. Barney Chadwick, general manager of the Goose Creek Club, said this is just part of the process. “We expected to be turned down by the supervisors,” Chadwick said. “Both Caste Hill and the Ravine got turned down 5-0 by the supervisors, and they went the next step and got their petition.” The Goose Creek Club, located at the end of Anderson Road across from the east Wellsgate community entrance, is set to open at the beginning of 2014 according to Chadwick. The 10,000-square-foot clubhouse will include clay tennis courts, a swimming pool, a

fitness center and a restaurant. There will also be personal trainers for tennis players, and the club will host swim competitions for members and neighboring clubs. Lafayette County is wet for alcohol and wine but dry for beer. State law mandates that for a restaurant or other establishments to sell alcohol, they must be within city limits. The Department of Revenue will ultimately decide the issue, but part of the application process is to appear before the local governing board to request a letter of support. The board of supervisors has traditionally voted against resort status requests. Chadwick’s next step is to apply for resort status with the state. He will also need 100 signatures in support of the resort status from neighbors and then need to submit his request to the Mississippi See CLUB, PAGE 4

Protection from paddlefish

BY NEAL MCMILLIN tnmcmill@go.olemiss.edu

Sometime after catching a sunfish, grass carp and bass for my fishing merit badge, my mother gave me a framed “Freshwater Fishes Common to Mississippi” poster. Featuring 34 native fish, the poster seemed to be less of a trophy hunter’s bucket list than a curiosity. In particular, the paddlefish with a nostril like a duck-billed platypus appeared as incongruous among the depicted fish as a Martian at a cocktail party. I mentally classified the fish in my weird-buttrue file. The paddlefish is arguably the most unique fish swimming in United States freshwaters. The fish is evolutionarily ancient with T H E D A I LY

cartilage structure like a shark. The fish’s skin is smooth like a catfish. It feeds on zooplankton at the bottom of the river’s trophic levels. The most recognizable feature, of course, is the elongated, paddleshaped snout called a rostrum. Needless to say, a casual fisherman would be startled to reel a paddlefish into the boat. In my class on the Mississippi River’s ecology, I have learned how integral the idiosyncratic paddlefish was to restoration of the river system. From Montana to Mississippi, millions of dollars of federal conservation funding have been applied to preserve the species. I appreciate the federal dedication to protecting species. Animal Planet and “Wild Discovery” were my cartoons growing up, after all. Yet the huge expense to protect a single fish seemed excessive even to my environmental leanings. Could one fish possibly be worth all the trouble? Clearly, paddlefish are in trouble

due to human interference. The wide-ranging paddlefish historically traveled the entire breadth of the Mississippi River Basin and throughout the Great Lakes. Now the fish is largely constricted to the Lower Mississippi River system. Often led by the Corps of Engineers, efforts to increase navigational ease in the Mississippi River have altered the paddlefish’s habitat. The dozens of dams on the Upper Mississippi River and Missouri River block key migratory routes. Spawning grounds were destroyed, backwater sanctuaries were polluted and many of the juveniles’ gravel-bed nurseries were ruined by channelization. Like many species, the destructive habitat-alteration narrative is too true. Haute cuisine presents an unusual additional threat to the paddlefish. The taste buds of the elite directed a culinary cause for population stress on the fish: caviar. After the sturgeon fish population was decimated, paddlefish

with their pouches of green-black eggs were substitutes. Capitalism’s all-you-can-eat harvesting methods ensued. Fishing for paddlefish, colloquially called “snagging,” nearly repeated the plight of the sturgeon. With the near demise of and restrictions on harvesting paddlefish, incentives to garnish the party’s hors d’oeuvres menu have inspired poaching. According to St. Louis’ CBS local news, eight of 100 suspects were indicted for “federal crimes involving the illegal trafficking of paddlefish and their eggs for use as caviar” this March. The threats to paddlefish are severe. The World Wildlife Fund designation for the “spoonbill cat” ranges from vulnerable to critically endangered. The paddlefish’s Asian cousin may be extinct.

continued from page 2 largest freshwater fish. According to National Geographic, the Chinese paddlefish, which could grow up to 23 feet long, has not been seen in its home range on the Yangtze River since 2003. Now Chinese conservationists are appealing to the U.S. to allow the Chinese to introduce the Mississippi paddlefish to replace the poetically — and forebodingly — named “Giant Panda of the Rivers.” Preserving caviar supplies is hardly the reason I find the Mississippi paddlefish intriguing. Last Friday, my class traveled down to Vicksburg to visit the fisheries division Corps of Engineers Environmental Laboratory. A highlight of the tour was the tank of 30 or so jet-black paddlefish juveniles. Scientists were finding amazing insights from the strange fish. In particular, the namesake rostrum presented military possibilities. The lightweight design could increase the dexterity and reduce energy needs for submarines. The rostrum’s sensory electronics, used to detect prey, could refine future underwater tracking technology. By 3D printing the tangled rostrum’s interior, scientists were considering the design as a precursor to combat body armor like Morgan Freeman designing superhero gadgetry in “Batman Begins.” The quirky riverbottom fish could one day protect our Marines on the front lines. The answer to the early question of “Why bother with endangered species?” does not have to be merely for the sake of duty. We can protect biodiversity for the future scientific insights. Technological advances can be found in nature. Cures to rare diseases may be found way off in the depths of the Amazon Rainforest or close by in our state’s namesake river. We have to protect to one day find out. Neal McMillin is a senior southern studies major from Madison.

Aye ladies… BY SIERRA MANNIE ssmannie@go.olemiss.edu

Dear Bloody Makeout Girl, Corner Jeep Girl and Drunk Grove Interview Girl, Hey, y’all. How’s your semester going? Grades good? Parking okay? Great. Good. Yeah. I hope everything’s going well for you. I wish I could address you by your names — because honestly, you’re so much more than the butt of jokes from YouTube and Ole Miss Problems, and I hope you know that and that everyone else knows that, too. I’m not going to lie and say that I wasn’t 50 shades of amused by what happened to y’all at first, and more than a little filled with secondhand shame for you — it’s one thing to make a mistake, or be a victim of the effects of turning up too much, but to have those things go viral … I mean, the Internet read you

ladies for filth. I can’t imagine where your proverbial wigs might be at this point. Phew. But the Internet, as Kim Kardashian would probably tell you if her thoughts weren’t already preprogrammed by Kanye West into single-syllable words, won’t be what destroys your success or value as a person, if anything ever does. The fact that gossip spreads like wildfire and that a lot of people take the opportunity to show the Twitterverse how witty they can be at your personal expense doesn’t make you bad people, nor does it decrease your value as women or students of the university. Some people might want to sacrifice you on the altar of Dumb Ole Miss Girls and leave you there as an easyenough idol on which they can deposit their judgement, but you are not any stupid “other” worthy of scorn, and your mere womanhood doesn’t

predispose you to these things happening and shouldn’t predispose you to casual slander, either. Hold your heads high and let the haters stay mad. Here’s to living in the present.

Chadwick said they are mainly focused on the rest of the process since gathering the signatures will be easy. “We have 175 members so we already have at least half of the signatures.

at places like this. “It would be nice to be able to relax and have a drink with your friends after a tennis match,” Burdette said. “Most clubs I’ve gone to in the past served alcohol. It’s just part of a club.” Chadwick made it clear the club’s intention is not to build an exclusive bar, but instead offer alcohol as an addition to a meal or after a workout for members. “This is a family-oriented club. We aren’t expecting to stay open late,” Chadwick said. “This is simply complementing the restaurant.”

my family have also lost the fight to cancer, and one of my cousins is currently fighting it.” Smith said she is participating in the relay to show her family’s resiliency and refusal to let the disease beat them. “My aunt and my grandmother have won the fight against cancer, and one of my husband’s aunts and uncle also have won the fight. I relay for my family of fighters.” A representative of each team will be walking at all times throughout the length of the event, starting and ending in front of the Student Union. Blackwell and the Relay for Life team are hoping to raise $57,000 this year. This money comes not only from those participating in the main events, but also from spectators and people who support Relay for Life through donations. Junior English major Austen Derrick is one of the event’s many nonparticipating supporters. “I don’t run, but Relay for Life is a great cause and any support they can get is going towards helping find a cure for cancer,” Derrick said. Signup for the 5k for a Cure will continue until the start of the event.

Walt Disney World: a magical place or pure horror? BY NATALIE WOOD nataliejunewood@gmail.com

Walt Disney World is a magical place where dreams come true — or is it? Since its initial release on Oct. 11, Randy Moore’s controversial horror film “Escape from Tomorrow” threatens to destroy every existing perception that the all-powerful “House of Mouse” has created in our minds. “It looks like hell disguised itself as Disney World,” horror film-enthusiast Haven Nutt said. “It’s the perfect plan if you really think about it. I’m excited to see this movie, especially since it’s really the first of its kind.” Shot guerilla-style at Disneyland and Disney World, without permission from the Walt Disney Co., this psychological fantasy flick will have your mind reeling. It features a family of four who are about to enjoy their last day of vacation at “the happiest place on earth.” But when the father, Jim, gets a phone call from his boss and is fired from his job, things begin to go terribly wrong. His demented son, nagging

35871

wife and innocent daughter each play a role in Jim’s miserably intensified Disney experience as they make their way through the Magic Kingdom. The “It’s a Small World” ride kicks off his bizarre hallucinations as the smiling, doll-like faces turn into twisted, evil grins. From Jim’s borderline obsession with two young Parisian girls to finding that the turkey legs are really made from emu meat, this father begins to feel as though he is trapped inside of a welldisguised conspiracy controlled by pure evil. The director also emphasizes negative characteristics of the parks that any Disney World visitor could relate to — long lines, crying children, the bad hygiene that is inevitable at such an enormous public place, an excessive amount of overweight individuals on motorized carts and obnoxiously happy employees. According to senior Ryan Smyres, the film’s play on these aspects was his favorite part. “If you’ve been to Disney World, then you’ve seen those parents who do everything they can to keep their kids happy, whether it’s buying them a ton

of sweets or standing in lines for hours,” he said. “I thought it was funny how the director emphasized the irony of that through a horror movie.” The crew of the black and white indie film went to great lengths to capture the footage it needed, doing so with only two handheld cameras and theme park passes for the entire team. They spent five months actually filming and ended up riding each ride shown in the movie multiple times in order to get the necessary angles and shots — all under the nose of the single largest revenue-generating company in the world. The Walt Disney Co. has still declined to comment on “Escape from Tomorrow.” The film wraps up when the family park-hops over to Epcot to see the firework show they’ve heard so much about. But things go awry quickly, leading the viewer through unexpected twists and turns that are sure to shock any audience. The film is ready for rent on iTunes even as you read this paragraph. But be warned: You may not want to know what goes on inside Epcot’s iconic, white globe.

Lady Rebels prepare for tip-off

The Ole Miss women’s basketball team is set to tip off the 2013-14 season Sunday with an exhibition game against Christian Brothers Academy. The season is a fresh start for the Rebels, as the coaching staff received a complete overhaul in the offseason, mainly with new head coach Matt Insell. Insell comes to Ole Miss after spending five years as an assistant coach with Kentucky and is the youngest coach in the Southeastern Conference at age 31. Insell is set with the task of turning around a Rebel team that has not won more than three conference games in a season since 2010. “Going to Kentucky and being able to work at the highest level there and being a part of a turnaround in a program that goes from being the worst program in the SEC to one of the best, if not the best, at this point was an experience that allowed me to learn on the fly and to learn what (coaching) is all about,” Insell said. Insell believes he is inheriting a

very similar situation at Ole Miss. “(There is) more talent (at Ole Miss) than we inherited when we got to Kentucky five years ago,” Insell said. “This is a more talented team here, and I’m very excited about this team and what this team can become.” The Rebels return all of their top six scorers from last year, including junior forward Tia Faleru, who tied with senior point guard Valencia McFarland as the team’s leading scorer, despite only starting two games. “When I started those two games, I really felt like I couldn’t get into rhythm,” Faleru said. “I really thought I could help my team out so I became the sixth player off the bench. I brought a lot more energy and I just had a mindset that I was going to help my team coming off the bench.” However, Faleru may see an expanded role this season. “My coaches really expect a lot out of me this year,” Faleru said. “(They expect a lot) from me, my team, and I feel like I can bring a lot to the table towards the style of play that we’re playing and our coaches believe in a lot of me this

year. So I really just got to take it and do something with it.” The Rebels feature three seniors in guards Diara Moore and McFarland and forward Kenyotta Jenkins. Moore believes all seniors are expected to have major roles. “Coach Matt (Insell) wanted me and (Valencia) and (Kenyotta) stepping up,” Moore said. “This is our last year and he just wants us to lead the team and have a great year,” Moore said. Moore also has a few personal goals. “(I) just (want to) leave a mark for myself at this point,” Moore said. “You know, try to make AllSEC. Really, just try to get my name out there and to help my team get to the NCAA tournament.” Insell gave one reason for Ole Miss fans to come out to Tad Smith Coliseum to see the Rebels play. “You’re going to see a team that is very passionate that’s very representative of this great university with great pride,” he said. “When you leave the arena, you’re going to be very proud of the team you are watching.”

BASKETBALL, continued from page 8 leading scorer, Marshall Henderson. The senior will miss four total games, three regular-season games and one exhibition. The regular season suspension will start with the season opener against Troy on Friday, Nov. 8, and includes the first two SEC games in January. “I’ve never dealt with it,” Kennedy said. “It’s kind of unprecedented in the way that it’s laid out. When we approach Auburn, by then a lot of other guys (will) have gotten experience.” Ole Miss will have to replace the focal point of its offense for three games during the season. The offense was centered around Henderson, as the most run play from last season was letting him run off of multiple baseline screens to get an open shot. Kennedy will have to retool the offense for his suspension. “We obviously knew there was going to be a suspension,” Kennedy said. “As we were preparing our team, he’s been on the second team the entire time because we wanted to get a little continuity.” Ole Miss will likely start juniors Jarvis Summers and LaDarius White at two of the guard positions, but that leaves a third spot open when Henderson sits out. Derrick Millinghaus could start, but he is the backup point guard,

and starting with Summers is not ideal. That leaves sophomores Anthony Perez and Martavious Newby, who averaged 1.7 and 1.6 points last season, and freshman Janari Joesaar, a native of Estonia, as potential starters. Exhibition vs. USC-Aiken Ole Miss hosts USC-Aiken in an exhibition game tonight at 6 p.m. The Pacers return three players who averaged more than 12 points per game last season. Forward Paul Larsen averaged 12.9 points and nine rebounds last year, while their leading scorer Ronald Zimmerman returns with his 15.3 points-per-game average. USC-Aiken went 25-8 last year, including a 15-3 mark in the Peach Belt Conference. They made it to the Elite Eight NCAA Division II Tournament. Ole Miss will be without Marshall Henderson for this exhibition game, and head coach Andy Kennedy hasn’t declared who will start, but he plans to play everyone. “Still a little bit fluid. We’ll play everybody.” Kennedy said. “We’ll have 11 scholarship bodies healthy and eligible for that game and all of them will play.” It’ll be the first opportunity to see the incoming freshmen, Sebastian Saiz, Dwight Coleby, Janari Joesaar and Jerron Martin. Ole Miss will get the regular season started in a week when it hosts Troy Nov. 8 at 7:30 p.m.

Ole Miss crushes rival MSU on senior night Basketball looks to continue success from last season

AUSTIN McAFEE | The Daily Mississippian

The Ole Miss soccer team celebrates after defeating Mississippi State 5-1 Thursday night.

The seniors came up big in the regular-season finale Thursday, getting a pair of goals from both Mandy McCalla and Rafaelle Souza to help push No. 25 Ole Miss (14-4-2, 7-3-1 SEC) to a 5-1 win over Mississippi State (315-0, 0-11-0 SEC) and claim the Magnolia Cup in the annual meeting between the two teams. With her two goals, Souza moved into second place on

the career goal list and is one game shy of tying the school record for goals in a season set by Sarah Comeaux in 1996. Comeaux tallied 41 goals in her career with the Rebels. Junior goalkeeper Kelly McCormick also tied the school record for goalkeeper wins in a career as the victory gave McCormick her 32nd career win in goal to tie the mark set by Brittany Gillespie in 2003.

The win on Thursday also tied the most wins in a regular season, set by the 2005 team and is one shy of the school record for wins in a season set in the 2003 campaign that included wins in the SEC Tournament and the NCAA Tournament. “We were led by our seniors tonight,” said Ole Miss head coach Matthew Mott. “I’m really happy with the performance by the team.

We worked hard and got the ball in good spots. When we got the chance to finish we did. Everyone got to play in our last home game and now we’re ready to head to the SEC Tournament and see what we can do in the postseason. “We’re excited we tied the record for wins in a regular season and hope to break the record for wins in the SEC Tournament, but we’re not done and still have a lot to play for this season,” Mott said. Mississippi State avoided the shutout with its lone goal of the night in the 89th minute when Elisabeth Sullivan got loose on a breakaway and found the back of the net as she slipped a shot in past a diving Rebel keeper to put the Bulldogs on the board. Ole Miss will now head to the Southeastern Conference Tournament as the four-seed and will face the fifth-seeded Kentucky Wildcats at 7:30 p.m. on Wednesday. The Rebels earned a bye on the first day of competition by virtue of finishing fourth in the SEC with the win over Mississippi State. Ole Miss and Kentucky did not face each other in the regular season this year.

Coming off a Southeastern Conference tournament title and two NCAA tournament victories the Ole Miss men’s basketball team will have lofty expectations to live up to in the 2013-14 season. But this season’s squad will have to tap into different resources to pull off another big run. Nick Williams, Murphy Holloway and Reggie Buckner graduated. Those three combined for 31.9 points, 19.9 rebounds and 3.4 steals per game. While Ole Miss has an experienced backcourt to deal with the loss of Williams, the frontcourt will be tested. Returning junior forwards Aaron Jones and Demarco Cox both missed the entire second half of last season due to injuries, with Cox playing in just seven games. But both have been practicing, and head coach Andy Kennedy is encouraged by their return. “They haven’t missed a day of practice,” Kennedy said. “They seem healthy. They’re getting their timing back. Most importantly, they’re getting their confidence back. They know that they can play the roles that we need them to play.” Kennedy will use a four-man rotation in the post as freshmen Sebastian Saiz and Dwight Coleby will get playing time down low. Saiz played for the Spanish U-19 and U-20 teams this summer averaging 8.3 points and 7.6 rebounds in 19 games in two tournaments. None of the players Kennedy intends to use in the frontcourt played during the Rebels’ run to the SEC title or the NCAA tournament. Ole Miss will also have to deal with the suspension of last year’s See BASKETBALL, PAGE 7
