Associate provost Noel Wilkin said making the decision to close the campus is always a dif-ficult one.

Wilkin said the crisis action team, of which he is a part, bases the decision off of several different sources.

“We always strive to make the best possible decisions based on the safety of our students, fac-ulty and staff,” Wilkin said.

Yesterday, Wilkin said, the ac-tion team did not receive infor-mation strong enough to close the campus until 10:45 p.m.

“We knew we were covered by clouds, but the information before that was that it was not going to reach the ground,” Wilkin said. “Then, we learned what was happening in Arkan-sas and the counties west of us, and how it was working. Also,

that it was going to be heavy snow, and continue to be heavy, so we made the decision with that understanding.”

Wilkin said several factors went into the decision: the amount of snow expected, the type of snow, the fact that it was expected to stick on roadways and sidewalks, and the amount of time that it is going to snow. Due to the hazardous condi-tions, Wilkin said the team rec-ommended to the provost and Chancellor that the campus be closed after noon.

While most events on campus were cancelled along with after-noon classes, Wednesday night’s basketball game between Ole Miss and Louisiana State Uni-versity was still on.

“They decided, if we could get the teams here, then they would make the decision to go ahead and play,” Wilkin said. “Ath-letics will continue to monitor

Students play in the snow on Wednesday between Bishop Hall and Martindale. The campus was closed at 12 p.m. after the crisis action team decided to cancel classes.

SNOWMAGEDDON, AT LEAST FOR MISSISSIPPI

In support of the protest movement in Egypt, students at Ole Miss are organizing a demonstration today in front of the Student Union. Students will be rallying from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. starting at the In-ternational Office and ending in front of the Union, where a speech and discussion of the events in Egypt will be held to help spread awareness of the situation.

“I’m not sure how well people know about what’s going on in Egypt,” Amir Wahba, a Phar-maceutical Ph.D. candidate, said. “We will not shout. It is just a peaceful movement.”

The demonstrators will mainly be comprised of stu-dents from Egypt.

“We want to show our sup-port,” Amir said. “This is first. Second, we want change. We believe in change.

“Third, we want to give the message that this is all types of Egyptian people who want this change.”

A table will be set up in the

Union to answer questions that students may have about the developments in Egypt.

Violence in Egypt continues to escalate as the military stands by.

Protesters began burning po-lice stations on Tuesday in retali-ation to unconfirmed reports of police firing live rounds at pro-testers in the city of El Kharga and Wadi El Jedid province.

Despite increasing pressure to reform from the Obama administration and the revival of protester’s efforts across the country to bring down Egypt’s ruling regime, vice president Sulieman, Mubarak’s hand-picked successor, expressed that the regime is not going any-where in the interest of sparing the country from “chaos.”

The concessions that the re-gime has offered, such as Suli-emans offer for constitutional negotiations and promises con-cerning freedom of the Egyp-tian press, have failed to impede the increasing tide of protests.

Should the snow force the postponement of the demon-stration, the new date and time will be updated at theDMon-line.com.

BY JOSH CLARK Cartoonist

In high school, my daily routine consisted of going to school, going to some sports practice, showering after driving home, then watching sports highlights on ESPN until I fell asleep.

My senior year, the sportscasters on ESPN started throwing strange combinations of words and pic-tures around. They told me to “follow” them on this new trendy thing called “Twitter” and flashed a picture of a bird when they en-couraged me to “tweet” at them.

At the time, I scoffed at their demands and thought that Twitter would soon fizzle out, and that its greatest merit would be to join the likes of Xanga and serve as an in-spiration for yet another humorous Cracked.com list.

I basically saw Twitter as a Face-book with no wall, photo albums, personal information, events, groups, or games; all that was left were the status updates. I thought I would remain a Mark Zuckerberg faithful for life.

In 2011, though, I actually find myself using Twitter much more than the aforementioned Book of Faces.

Years ago I could not have fath-omed using Twitter more than Fa-cebook, much less using Twitter at all, so I sat down and tried to sort out the reasons in the area where my brain’s supposed to be to see why.

As a technologically illiterate in-dividual, I find Twitter very easy to use. I tweet and see what others tweeted – nothing too complicated about that.

I tweet a number of different things, like something funny one of my friends said, a comment on a sports game, or a complaint about the weather.

Or, whenever I simply can-not form the energy to create my own thoughts, I can simply scroll through my timeline (Twitter’s version of Facebook’s news feed) and click “retweet” and the work is done for me.

I can also tailor my Twitter to suit my interests. As a basketball fan, I follow NBA analysts and not MLB players.

As someone concerned with global events, I follow the Econo-mist and not Hannah Montana.

As an economics major, I follow

the Wall Street Journal and not J.K. Rowling. But pages exist for just about every kind of news imagin-able so every tweeter can cater his page to fit his interests. I can follow and unfollow pages relatively easily, so my timeline is hardly ever clut-tered.

Because I have had a Facebook for over six years now, I have ac-cumulated over 1,100 friends and wish I had simply clicked “ignore” on many friend requests. All too often, my news feed is blown up by acquaintances from high school expressing immature emotions, the results of quizzes my friends have taken, and invitations to question-able events.

I wish I could find my Staples Easy Button to make all of this dis-appear, but unfortunately I think Mark Zuckerberg stole it from me.

Essentially, my biggest beef with Facebook is a problem society as a whole is facing today - there is sim-ply too much information. I just Googled “awesome” and got about 192,000,000 results.

Much to the dismay of Barney Stinson, I highly doubt every single

one of those results is actually awe-some.

Now, I could try sorting through the 192,000,000 different pages trying to find the most awesome stuff, but I would consequently suffer through pages in which high school bloggers say American Eagle is awesome.

I’m sure there are a few dozen people out there who actually like the brand, but it does not suit the tastes of myself or my closet.

On Facebook, I see the favorite movies, pictures, wall posts, sta-tuses, and other types of informa-tion that Mark Zuckerberg thinks I want to know about all of my friends.

On Twitter, I only see tweets from people and pages that inter-est me.

I encourage all of you to try Twit-ter so you can only sift through the babble that you want to see.

Not only will you not get bogged down by the unnecessary informa-tion Facebook presents us with, but it will also limit the amount of times a classmate catches you creeping on him while you’re in the same class.

Dear editor,

The Daily Mississippian is one of the many newspapers that you find available at the Deli News and we enjoy read-ing it every day. When reading it this morning, we came across the article “Firehouse Subs opening in Oxford” where the writer, Lance Ingram, reported that the Deli News was a fran-chise.

The Deli News is a family owned and operated restaurant

at 1609 Jackson Ave. We’ve been here 12 years and pride ourselves in serving original homemade sandwiches made from high quality cheese and meats coupled with local Bot-tletree Bakery bread.

Our sandwiches are origi-nal to the extent that some are named after Ole Miss coaches, one is named “The Eli,” and one of our best-sellers is the “4th and one” which was origi-nally the “Big O” before Org-eron made the brilliant deci-

sion at Mississippi State in the 2007 Egg Bowl. I don’t know of many franchises that would be brave enough to sell our “Eat More Turkey” t-shirts.

We aren’t governed by cor-porate mandates. Our home is that we can continue for years to provide a quality product,

contribute to the local econ-omy by using locally grown products, get to know our cus-tomers and provide a pleasant, fun atmosphere where friends can gather.

Thanks for the mention in the article. We just wanted everyone to know that we are

100% Oxford, Ole Miss and Mississippi.

And, also, we would like to say hello to Firehouse and wel-come them to the neighbor-hood.

Heated and loaded,Sonny and Carol Clark

the weather, so, while the teams may compete, they may deal with fans in a different way.”

Wilkin said the LSU basket-ball team arrived on campus Tuesday, but he urged fans to use their judgment with regards to traveling to the game.

“We had a speaker on cam-pus, and they decided to cancel that for the safety of the person traveling,” Wilkin said. “But with regards to the LSU team, they are here and safe. Athletics

made plans to get both teams here in time.”

Wilkin said that athletics are not exempted from the Univer-sity’s decision to cancel classes, but after looking at the dynam-ics it looked like the game could still be played.

“We will make the decision with regard to the University,” Wilkin said. “And we will leave it to the responsibility of athlet-ics to keep fans up to date.”

Wilkin said athletics would

Memphis National Weather Service meteorologist Bill Borg-hoff said for people to stay off the roads.

“If you have no where to go, or no business being out, try to stay at home because it is go-ing to be pretty bad,” Borghoff said. “We have already had nu-merous accidents in Memphis, and it is not worth the hassle if you don’t have to travel.”

Borghoff said Oxford is ex-pected to get three to six inch-es of snow, and some parts of Lafayette County could get up to seven inches.

Thursday should be a sunny day, with temperatures around 30 degrees, Borghoff said.

“Whatever is liquid and on the road should freeze and should continue to be slick throughout the day,” Borghoff said. “We will see the sun early afternoon, but it should continue to freeze through the morning.”

Borghoff said following this, things will warm up.

“We are expecting tempera-tures to be up to 60 degrees by Sunday,” Borghoff said.

Wilkin said the team has not made a recommendation based on Thursday’s classes.

“It depends on when the snow stops and how it melts,” Wilkin said. “Since this is a decision that can’t be reversed, we try to wait until we have the best possible information before we make the decision.”

The crisis action team in-cludes the campus’s emergency management administrator, the dean of students, the chief of police and others, with Wilkin representing the academic side of the campus. Some of the ser-vices and people the team stays in contact with include the national weather service, the Oxford and Lafayette County emergency management de-partments and the sheriff.

“We continually monitor the conditions of the storm, or the conditions of the counties near us that have experienced the storm,” Wilkin said. “We start monitoring several days out and keep up with the National Weather Service updates and stay in contact with the emer-gency management administra-tor.”

Wilkin said as the action team gathers information, they start sharing it with the various campus entities and keep them informed on the storm as they track it.

“We then meet to discuss what the plan is moving for-ward, whether we will stay the course with operation hours or make a recommendation to the provost and chancellor,” Wilkin said.

Crying is inevitable.Blood, sweat and tears are

poured out in this film’s trailer, but none of it compares to the emotion portrayed on the actors’ faces.

Pain. Grief. Torture. A range of emotions beyond

imagine can be seen within two minutes and 34 seconds.

“Where I Begin,” co-written by Melanie Addington, of Oxford, and Thomas L. Phillips. The film is a drama that was shot in Ox-ford and Sardis this summer and will be played at Oxford Film Fes-tival this weekend.

“The movie is about relation-ships and the rediscovery of re-lationships,” Phillips, who also directed the movie, said. “We all have trials and tribulations, and people will always wonder what exactly happened.”

The film follows Jacob, played by Alex Walters (“Rattle Basket”), who has returned to his small hometown after a tragic event that has shaped the town’s percep-tion of him.

Walters, who had worked with Phillips in the past, said that working on this movie was re-freshing.

“I connected to the role,” Wal-ters said. “I have a personal inter-est in intense, dark characters. Ja-cob is not just angry. He has a lot going on. It gave me a lot to work with, and I was really excited to see how many levels I could get to.”

A Knoxville, Tenn. native, Phil-

lips said filming this movie in a small Southern town was essen-tial.

“This movie is about coming home, and it had always been my dream as a filmmaker to come back home to make a movie,” Phillips said. “This was some-thing personal to me.”

The emotional intensity of the film that can be seen on screen

was felt all throughout the film-ing process, Phillips said.

“Every character is so real, so intense and in-depth,” Phillips said. “Every day was an emo-tional roller coaster on set. I was emotionally invested, and I’d go home every night and be an emo-tional wreck. It took a good 3 or 4 weeks after production to find

myself again.”With all of the intensity and

drama, the film relies on one char-acter – Patrick played by Lance Nichols (“The Curious Case of Benjamin Button,” “Treme”), to take on the role of “sage.”

Patrick owns a restaurant/bar and serves as a narrator.

“He knows everything that goes on in town,” Nichols said. “He presents the voice of wisdom in the film, and I found that en-ticing.”

While the audience will be moved by the story, the actors were moved by Oxford’s southern charm while filming.

“I couldn’t handle how nice ev-eryone was,” Walters said.

“It was an unexpected sur-prise.”

“The people are very warm and friendly,” Nichols said of his time in Oxford. “The town is full of

good old southern hospitality.”In addition to the cast, the crew

was a major part of making the movie something special.

“The actual crew for this film was one of the best I’ve ever worked with, and I’ve worked on some big budget productions,” Nichols said.

“Everyone was very efficient, very professional.”

The comradery found on set was expressed in the filming pro-cess.

“A lot of times on a set, cast and crew separate,” Walters explained. “On this particular movie, every-one was like a family, and that made shooting better.”

If shooting a movie is like forming a family, then that makes Phillips head of the household.

“Working with Thomas was good because he was all about the actor,” Walters said. “He was very

open to suggestions. I really ap-preciated his hard work and his intensity.”

Nichols said that Phillips “gives his actors a lot of direction to play.”

Also an important person in the production process was Add-ington, who was always on set with a script in hand.

“Working with Melanie was good,” Walters said.

“I felt comfortable enough to go to her with any concerns and script changes.”

The emotional ride of the trailer could make the most hard-heart-ed person weep. “Where I Begin” is sure to be the dramatic stand out at Oxford Film Festival.

As one of the film festival’s most scheduled films, “Where I Begin” will offer sneak preview screen-ings at 3:25 p.m. on Friday and at 4 p.m. on Sunday.

ATTENTION ALL MEN!

The Ole Miss softball team opens play today at the Kajika-wa Classic in Tempe, Ariz.

The tournament, which lasts until Feb. 12, features some of the best teams in Division I softball such as Oregon and BYU, two teams that reached Super Regionals last year.

“(Oregon and BYU) are tal-ented,” said Ole Miss coach Missy Dickerson. “We look at

it as a challenge to help us get better.”

The Rebels are looking to improve from last year after barely making it over the .500 mark during a 29-27 season.

Dickerson said she believes the path to improvement has much to do with the play of her seniors.

“Seniors set the tone,” said Dickerson, “You hope it carries through all the other classes.”

But with only three seniors – pitchers Brittany Barnhill and

Lindsey Perry and catcher Ra-chel Torres – there will be pres-sure for younger members of the team to step up. Dickerson believes that the underclass-men – especially the freshmen – are up to the task.

“In practice (the freshmen) have done great,” said Dick-erson, “But being on the field and actually competing it hopefully carries over.”

Dickerson said the Kajikawa Classic gives her a chance to evaluate her team before an-other tournament in Florida and Ole Miss’ home opener Feb. 22 against Mississippi Valley State.

“(The Kajikawa Classic) will give me an idea of what we still need to work on,” Dick-erson said. “Always learn from mistakes and correct those and focus.”

The Rebels alternate playing in the Kajikawa Classic every other year with one in Cali-fornia. This year’s Classic has Ole Miss facing Utah, San Jose State, BYU, Oregon and Cal State Fullerton

“(The Kajikawa Classic) al-lows us to play against the top teams and gives us experience to carry into SEC play,” Dick-erson said.
