During Drivers Aware-ness Week, students will experience the DUI Simula-tor, the Distracted Driving Simulator and see a mock wreck brought to life. Those who sign commitment cards will be eligible for prizes, in-cluding $50 gas cards, and $500, $1,000 and $5,000 scholarships.
The PBPA is strong on advocating to students and parents that driving drunk or distracted can lead to ac-cidents and deaths. These prizes and scholarships are the result of sponsorships
from Powell businesses. Gold sponsor Garrett Con-
struction donated $1,000. Silver sponsors who donated $500 are Computer De-pot, Heritage Pools, Vaughn Pharmacy, HRComp, Kelley Jarnigan – Farm Bureau and Powell Chiropractic. Bronze sponsors Laura Bailey, Sage Kohler, Commercial Bank, Powell Food City, Frontier Communications, Knox North Lions Club, UT Fed-eral Credit Union and The Bluffs of Beaver Creek do-nated $250.
parents fl ocked to the schools to take advantage of learning opportunities.
“I promise you, where families are learning togeth-er, and schools truly become the heart of the neighbor-hood, those children will be very, very successful,” Dun-can said.
Pond Gap Elementary School’s University-Assisted Community School program is currently in its third year. It has served as a pilot pro-gram for the county.
Randy Boyd, founder of Radio Systems Corp. and special advisor for high-er education to Gov. Bill Haslam, provided the bulk of funding for the Pond Gap program. After Duncan spoke, Boyd participated in a panel discussion where he refl ected on increased pa-rental involvement at Pond Gap. Among other things, the school now has a PTA.
After some quick math, he estimated how much it would cost each Knox County resident to fund 15-20 more community schools – $14. The price is low because the concept relies heavily on nonprofi ts and volunteers.
It’s an inexpensive solu-tion to the conundrum of how to get parents physical-ly into the school building. As Duncan said, parents of the most challenged stu-dents often failed academi-cally themselves, and don’t have warm, fuzzy feelings about schools.
It’s also a compassionate response to struggling fami-lies.
Dr. Bob Kronick of UT’s College of Education, Health and Human Sciences has been working on the com-munity school concept for 14 years. When asked to comment during the panel discussion, he said that students can’t learn if their basic needs – food, cloth-ing and shelter – aren’t met. Community schools provide support to students and families that is lacking in these areas.
Last year, Knox County Commission provided an additional $500,000 to ex-pand the community school program into Lonsdale, Green and Norwood elemen-tary schools. Check back next week to learn more about these programs.

Attending the dedica-tion of the Ann Baker Furrow Boulevard at Sorority Village on the UT campus (next to Neyland Drive) this coming Satur-day, April 13, at 1 p.m. will be the person who appoint-ed Furrow to the UT Board of Trustees.
That is former Gov. Winfi eld Dunn, 85, and his wife, Betty Dunn, who are coming from Nashville where they now live. Chan-cellor Jimmy Cheek will preside at a UT-sponsored, invitation-only luncheon preceding the event.
Furrow was the fi rst woman to serve on the UT board. The public is invited and sorority houses will be open for viewing after the dedication.
■ Anthony Hancock, who unsuccessfully op-posed state Rep. Steve Hall, has picked up a petition to oppose City Council member Duane Grieve (West Knoxville). What had been a sleepy election may become more interesting, but Hancock will have to wage a more active cam-paign this year than he did against Hall to be a serious contender.
Picking up a petition does not mean he will actually qualify, but it does mean he is thinking about it. Several city precincts were in the House district he contested last fall. His loss to Hall was not close.
■ Duane Grieve is popular, well-liked and an independent voice on the council. He opposed Mayor Rogero’s pension reform plan as not going far enough to resolve fi s-cal issues. He is a strong advocate for greenways and additional trees.
Rogero backed Demo-cratic nominee Hancock over Hall with a fi nancial donation last year. She is not expected to support Hancock over Grieve this time around and is appear-ing at an April 13 neighbor-hood meeting for Grieve. (This writer was a donor to Grieve in his 2009 cam-paign and he was a donor to all my mayoral campaigns.)
■ Alice Sellew, 91, longtime Farragut resi-dent, recently died. She was a dedicated Republican who did the fl oral arrange-ments at countless Lincoln Day dinners and other GOP events for more than 20 years.
■ State Rep. Gloria Johnson has recommend-ed Knoxville attorney Tam-my Kaousias as predicted by this writer a few weeks ago to replace another at-torney, Dennis Francis, on the Knox County Election Commission.
The other Democrat is Cassandra McGee Stuart, recommended by Rep. Joe Armstrong. This will mark the fi rst time in Knox his-tory that two women have served at the same time on the Election Commis-sion. Kaousias, who is an avid political supporter of Johnson, is the fi rst Greek American to serve on the Commission.
Johnson criticized the Commission in her cam-paign for closing Belle Morris school as a voting precinct and holding its meetings at 8 a.m. It will be interesting to see if Kaousias and Stuart raise these issues during their 2-year term, although the GOP majority will like-ly vote down any requested change.
Each commissioner is paid $4,017 a year and Chris Heagerty re-ceives $998 a year more since he is the chair, for a total of $5,015. However, the most signifi cant benefi t these fi ve persons receive is free participation in the county health insurance plan which is valued at $10,000 a year – double their salary.
In effect the salary is $14,000 a year with the chair making $15,000.
It is unclear why this part-time job merits tax paid health insurance. In 2012 the Commission met nine times and this year they have met once in March and plan an April meeting to swear in the members and rehire Cliff Rodgers as administra-tor.
■ Barbara Monty, 81, is retiring from the CAC-managed Mobile Meals program which delivers, primarily through volun-teers, countless meals to the needy. She and her hus-band, Ken Monty, moved here 45 years ago and went to work for CAC.
She became director of the Offi ce on Aging in 1977, which today runs more than 20 programs with a $10.5 million budget. She will be honored from 4-6 p.m. Tuesday, April 16, at a reception at the Ross Building which is open to all her friends. She prefers any gifts be made to Mobile Meals. Monty has been a tireless and dedicated ad-vocate for the less fortunate her entire life. She will be missed by many.
Dunns plan Knox visit The tasty roast beef din-ner the Union County Re-publicans served up in the high school for Lincoln Day didn’t lure the driver out of the big, black SUV that sat idling in the parking lot.
Presumably, he was maintaining a controlled climate while awaiting the return of the Senate Speak-er/Lt. Gov. Ron Ramsey and his ride-along guest, state Sen. Frank Niceley, whom Ramsey had picked up in Strawberry Plains, making for a 260-mile round trip from Ramsey’s home in Bluff City (in Sul-livan County) to Maynard-ville.
The Tennessee Depart-ment of Safety and Home-land Security provides se-curity to both the Senate and the House speakers. Ramsey’s driver, Bill Talia-ferro, is paid $38.71 per hour, while House Speaker
Driving Mr. Ramsey
Beth Harwell’s driver makes $26.65 an hour. Both driv-ers are eligible for overtime and retirement benefi ts.
Both speakers have 2011 Suburbans, but Nashville resident Harwell’s expenses are considerably less than Ramsey’s – $3,392 in gas and maintenance so far this year to Harwell’s $1,249 – because of his long com-mute.
“The Lieutenant Gover-nor and Speaker retain their responsibilities and title throughout the year and each is assigned security (state trooper) for protective services,” said Department of Safety spokesperson Kevin Crawford. The troop-
ers are paid per diem rates for lodging and meals when overnighting away from home.
Taliaferro fi gured promi-nently in a 2007 Memphis Flyer story by Jackson Bak-er about the changes that accompanied the overthrow of longtime Democratic Speaker John Wilder.
“The old order was changing, all right – from Democratic to Republican and from west to east. The phenomenon had been un-derscored earlier in the week, on the night after Ramsey’s election, when Bill Taliaferro, the state trooper who had been Wild-er’s plainclothes driver for well over a decade, sat down with Ramsey to discuss the matter of continuing in that role.
“As Speaker (Jimmy) Naifeh would note in report-ing on the matter to a couple
of his House colleagues, that probably meant that Talia-ferro would have to shift his own residence eastward to accommodate the new Speaker’s needs.”
Sure enough, an Internet search shows William E. Taliaferro with a Blountville address.
The most common jus-tifi cation for such practices involves pointing out that it’s nothing new. But Repub-licans used to rail against Democrats’ profl igate spending when they were running the show in Nash-ville, so more than a touch of irony sets in at the sight of members of the tough-talk-ing, budget-slashing new majority happily settled into the practices that they once deplored.
And the sight of state employees driving state vehicles to tote politicians like Mr. Speaker around the state to purely partisan events is almost as discon-certing as realizing that they don’t give a damn what we think.
A Shopper pop quiz

Understanding the Nashville GOPThe headliner at last
week’s Lincoln Day Dinner in Union County was U.S. Rep. Chuck Fleischmann, but Lt. Gov. Ron Ramsey stole the show. Ramsey ex-uded power and confi dence, and he was home from Nash-ville with a message to tell.
held by Republicans until 2012 when Gov. Bill Haslam joined Ramsey and House Speaker Beth Harwell. For most of those 216 years, the Democratic Party controlled all three positions.
In that context, it’s easy to see why the GOP is out to mess with the status quo.
“You don’t want to elect Republicans and have them start acting like Democrats,” Ramsey said.
Niceley, for instance, wants citizens to vote for the school superintendent but not for nominees for U.S. Senate.
Ramsey said the Repub-licans have “cut the food tax (although he thinks far enough since it’s ‘a tax ev-eryone pays’), cut the death tax and passed two balanced budgets, each less than the year before.”
Republicans have elimi-nated collective bargaining in education, made tenure something to be “earned, not automatic” and are pushing for school choice.
Ramsey said today
Shopper-News pres-ents a pop quiz when:
1. There’s nothing else to write about.
2. There’s so much to say we can’t fi t it all in.
3. We just don’t feel like being preachy.
Lt. Gov. Ron Ramsey said Republicans should not get elected and then start acting like Democrats. What did he mean?
1. They get chauffeured to partisan events in a big SUV.
2. They gridlock like Congress.
3. They slip a jug of spir-
its and a box of ’Nilla Wa-fers in their desk drawer, a la Ned McWherter.
Tim Burchett said his oversight in paying his property taxes was a mistake that will not be repeated. “Yesterday I discovered that I had inad-vertently forgotten to pay property taxes on two par-cels that I own on Amherst Road. ... This oversight was my fault and unintentional. It will not happen in the future.” Why was Burchett’s payment late?
1. Allison forgot to put the fl ag up on the mailbox
as she drove away.2. He was busy with
photo ops at elementary schools.
3. Big Foot ate it.
Last Friday, Burchett brought his campaign of economic boosterism to Farragut for Lunch with the Mayor at El Charro. Was this a good idea?
1. With Farragut’s restrictive sign ordinance, Tim’s friends from Vestal couldn’t even fi nd El Charro.
2. Tim’s usual idea of high cuisine is an all-you-can-eat pizza buffet.
3. Burchett had to eat on
the cheap after paying his taxes.
How do we account for Dr. Jim McIntyre saying “robust deployment matrix” when Tony Norman asked why he needs a com-bined 144 armed guards to serve 88 schools?
1. It was the return of George Bush’s fuzzy math.
2. His determination to “nip it in the bud.”
3. He meant to say “ro-tund” deployment matrix, referencing the likely hires – sheriff’s deputies who retired at age 50 on the lucrative pension plan.
“400,000 law-abiding citi-zens can carry and keep a fi rearm in a locked car.”
He called for a reduction of unemployment benefi ts saying, “Unemployment has become a lifestyle.”
After a couple of jabs at Obamacare, it was easy to see why Haslam opted not to
fi ght Ramsey on expanding Medicaid.
Shut out of power for 200 years and believing things are headed in the wrong direction, Republicans in Nashville are not just brak-ing the bus. They’re standing on the brakes and singing “Dixie.”
“Frank and I are kindred spirits,” he said of state Sen. Frank Niceley. “Every time I sit by Frank I learn some-thing. For instance, you ei-ther get it or you don’t get it. And if you have to ask, well, you don’t get it.”
Ramsey talked about the Republican Party’s rise to power. From the state’s founding in 1796, Tennes-see’s top three posts were not

HISTORY AND MYSTERIES | Dr. Jim Tumblin
My fond memories of attending Sunday school at First Christian Church on the periphery of Emory Place include that interval between Sunday school and the church service, when William G. Fox (1861-1936) reached in his suit coat pocket, retrieved a stick of Walla Walla chewing gum and delivered a tasty treat to each of the children lined up before him.
Fox was a senior elder of the church and treasurer of the building campaign. But through the week he was treasurer of the Walla Walla Chewing Gum Company. The company was the an-chor business in the Central Market, later to be called Emory Place.
According to the Ameri-can Journal of Commerce (1903), W.D. Biddle estab-lished the fi rm on March 2, 1897, in small quarters with only fi ve employees. Surely even William Wrigley, Chi-cago’s chewing gum king, would have been proud of the growth of the company, which at its height had 40-50 employees producing 1,200 sticks of chewing gum each minute, some two tons each day.
Until 1915, Walla Wal-la occupied Nos. 8 and 10 Central Market, with each 25x100-foot building consisting of four fl oors, equipped with steam power and up-to-date machinery. Walla Walla became the largest company of its kind in the South, and its product was marketed in 42 states by eight traveling salespeo-ple. The company moved to 511-14 State St. and in 1950, prominent former UT athlete and business owner Herman D. “Breezy” Wynn bought the company, plan-ning to expand it to 60 em-ployees.
Central Market fi rst ap-pears in the 1889 city di-rectory, when there were 33 stalls housed in a frame structure on a wide spur of Fourth Avenue, with the City Scales on the west end and Fire Engine House No. 1 in a brick building on the east end.
Old Gray Cemetery, founded in 1850, was just across Broadway from the market on the southwest corner of Holston Street (now Tyson). The downtown terminal for the Fountain Head Railway Company (“The Dummy Line”) was located on the northwest corner of that street.
Early tenants in the Cen-tral Market included Thom-as Owens’ fi sh market, Ja-cob Croissant’s meat market and Austin Plummer’s pro-duce company. Others like the Knox Candy Company would come and go, with Ebenezer Kelley and Stroth-er Lynn, Grocers, lasting for several years.
The original Market House, located a mile away on Market Square, had been built in 1854 and expanded in 1897. Perhaps that ex-pansion was the impetus for Central Market’s transition about the turn of the last century from small markets to larger factory-like busi-nesses and more substantial brick buildings.
When “Market” no lon-ger described its mission, the powers that be sought another name. The New Market Train Wreck of Sept. 24, 1904, was on everyone’s mind. Two Southern Rail-way passenger trains travel-ing at high speeds had col-lided head-on in the worst transportation disaster in area history. It was fi rst an-nounced that there were 56 killed and 106 injured but the toll grew as some of the
Emory Place and Central Market
Walla Walla Chewing Gum Company circa 1910. At its height the company had 40-50 employ-ees, produced 1,200 sticks of chewing gum each minute – two tons each day – and was mar-keted in 42 states.
The Rev. Isaac Emory (1830-1904) was known as “The Children’s Friend” for having introduced thousands of chil-dren to Sunday school. Emory Place was named in his honor after he perished in the New Market Wreck. Photos courtesy C.M. McClung Historical Collection
injured died and as more facts emerged.
Perhaps the best-known casualty was 74-year old the Rev. Isaac Emory who, after funeral services at Second Presbyterian Church, was interred in Old Gray Cem-etery with a footstone read-ing “The Children’s Friend.”
Born in 1830, the Rev. Emory, a native of Fulton, N.Y., graduated from Lane Theological Seminary in Cincinnati and became a missionary for the American
Sunday School Union. He ar-rived in Knoxville in 1865 at the end of the Civil War.
Knoxville had a popula-tion of 7,000 at the time and only a few of its churches had Sunday schools. The Rev. Emory soon succeeded in establishing 26 of them locally, from which several churches grew. Traveling by buggy, train and steamboat, he canvassed Chattanooga and Nashville, and estab-lished many more. But, over the years, his major prog-ress was in “backwoods” ar-eas where he started Sunday schools in which the mem-bership eventually totaled more than 50,000. Along the way he infl uenced many to enter the ministry and a short while before the trag-edy was elected moderator of the Knoxville Presbytery.
After his death, the name change just seemed a logical choice and the Central Mar-ket became Emory Place.
The Rev. Emory’s farm was in the Arlington com-munity of north Knoxville. His son, Charles M. Emory, established Arlington Gar-dens there after his father’s death. He sold vegetable plants grown in beds or in some of the fi rst hothouses in Knoxville. When the demand for houses in the suburbs grew in 1924 to 1926, Emory developed the upscale neighborhood and
named its two boulevards Fairmont and Emoriland, again honoring his father.
The 1903 Sanborn’s Fire Map shows the Whittle-Spence Trunk and Bag Com-pany, with R.D. Whittle as president, occupying a large building in the elbow-shaped center of Emory Place. R.D. was the younger brother of James M. Whittle, who es-tablished Whittle Springs Hotel. Walla Walla Chewing Gum Co. occupied lots 8 and 10, but there were few other occupants. In 1910 St. John’s Lutheran Church acquired two lots at the southwest entrance to Emory Place and completed their historic sanctuary in 1913.
Its changed character from a market with stalls to free-standing buildings was shown on the 1917 Sanborn’s Fire Map. The church, the Crescent Steam Laundry and the O.J. Smith Cabinet Co. were on the right side. On the left were the Hinton Laundry and Dry Cleaning Co., the U.S. Post Offi ce and the Walla Walla Chewing Gum Company.
Emory Place has experi-enced a renaissance thanks to the efforts of architect and city council member L. Duane Grieve. He pur-chased Nos. 8, 10 and 12 Emory Place in 1982, gut-ted the buildings, replaced the wiring and plumbing,
installed sprinklers and up-dated the historic façade. Commendably, only after that considerable expense did he apply for and win a federal block grant that transformed a surface park-ing lot into an attractive pocket park and enhanced all the properties in Emory Place, which was added to the National Register of Historic Places on Nov. 10, 1994.

Let mutual love continue. Do not neglect to show hospitality to strangers, for by doing that some have entertained angels without knowing it.
(Hebrews 13: 1-2 NRSV)
Always welcome
They aren’t strangers at all, but they do regularly qualify as angels. My friends John and Anne called unex-pectedly today.
Earlier, I had been talk-ing to a colleague when my cell phone buzzed. I checked it and saw that it was Anne, and thought, “I will call her back later, after work.”
Then things got busy, and
I was consumed by reports and trying to fi gure out where in the world check number 1240 had gotten to. (Bank accounts have been the bane of my existence re-cently, but that is a column for another day. Trust me when I tell you I am noth-ing if not stubborn when it comes to balancing my per-sonal checkbook. However,
this was a business check, and I have to fi gure out its disappearance, sometime between now and soon!)
My phone rang again, later in the afternoon, and it was Anne. She said, “We are about an hour and a half from Knoxville.”
I had no idea they were anywhere south of the Ma-son-Dixon Line.
These are the friends who (22 years ago) helped us pack up our lives in New Jersey, preparatory to mov-ing back to Tennessee. We had been here less than two weeks, striving mightily to renovate a neglected farm-house, when they showed up, tools in hand, and helped clean and paint and actually unpack.
That is no exaggeration! Anne unpacked the very boxes she had packed for me in New Jersey and put my kitchen together for me in Tennessee.
Like I said: angels they are!
I remember standing in the driveway at the end of
that two weeks, and watch-ing them drive away. I didn’t know when I would see them again. The awful thought struck me: What have I done?
Two years after that summer, they spent a month with us exploring the American West: two vans filled to the brim with camping equipment, six kids ranging in age from five to 17, four adults, as well as various and as-sorted forms of entertain-ment for the teenagers who eventually were bored by mountains and scenic vis-tas.
Since that time, we have managed a visit at least once
a year, sometimes twice. We have shared in family wed-dings, and have advised, encouraged and supported each other. We have lis-tened, and cared, and some-times disagreed.
So here they were driving into town, and I was still at work, trying to fi nd the er-rant check. But because it was John and Anne, I knew they would fi nd their way to me, and we would have a great evening, and it would all be comfortable and easy, and we would pick up right where we left off.
Because that is the way it is with “chosen family:” they are angels, and they are always welcome.

I predict record atten-dance for Tennessee’s foot-ball coaching clinic this weekend.
For $40, high school coaches can get three square meals, a souvenir gift bag and a batch of helpful stuff to take home.
They’ll be treated to a Butch Jones pep talk, presen-tations plus Q&A opportuni-ties with UT assistant coach-es and a few words of wisdom from some of their own, prep coaches with championship credentials.
I predict the clinic high-light (I want to say this gently to not offend the host) will be the keynote address by Pey-ton Manning.
The legendary quarter-back, almost always busy studying opponents’ defenses and shooting commercials, doesn’t make this kind of ap-pearance very often. He did it for Phillip Fulmer in 2002.
That Jones could get him on his fi rst try says some-thing signifi cant about the new coach establishing rela-tions with former Tennessee players.
Record audience for Peyton
Manning, in the top level of old Volunteers and an as-tounding success in the NFL, has kept Tennessee football in his heart. Some of his money is in the almost lav-ish Peyton Manning dressing room under the north end of Neyland Stadium.
Some more of his money funds Peyton Manning schol-arships, $7,000 per year for four years, minimum eligibil-ity 3.7 GPA. Macy Harrison from Frisco, Texas, and Chris Barnes from Hardin Valley Academy were 2012 recipi-ents.
The part I like best is Manning shows up to pres-ent the scholarships. This is for real.
Manning did his fair share as a football Vol – 33 school records, eight Southeastern Conference records and two
NCAA records. He produced 11,020 yards and 89 touch-down passes. He ran for 12 scores. No kidding.
He graduated early – with honors – and stayed for his senior season. Getting draft-ed No. 1 did not change him into an egotistical monster. Winning and millions may have added another degree of confi dence and a second or two to his colorful checkoffs and animated adjustments at the line of scrimmage but that’s just show biz.
In fact, from my distance, he appears to be much as he always was. As famous athletes go, Manning does it about as well as you could ask.
He sometimes yells at re-ceivers but picks up the check when they go out to dinner. He still puts in the hours to maintain his level of play. He loves life but lives with digni-ty. He is rich beyond reason but generous beyond belief.
Peyton and wife Ashley es-tablished the PeyBack Foun-dation in 1999 “to promote success of disadvantaged youth by assisting programs
that provide leadership and growth opportunities.”
Some in Knoxville have been recipients.
He tried to do as much for Indianapolis as it did for him.
Example: In 2007, St. Vin-cent Hospital renamed its child care segment “Peyton Manning Children’s Hospital at St. Vincent.”
Some kids want to go there even when they aren’t sick or hurt.
I don’t have a scorecard but youth organizations in Indiana, Tennessee and Lou-isiana, from whence he came, have received more than $4 million from PeyBack. Hun-dreds of needy families in Denver got free Thanksgiv-ing dinners.
Peyton’s NFL accomplish-ments are many – 12 Pro Bowls, four MVPs, six all-pro awards, the individual trophy from Super Bowl XLI.
You might have missed the Whizzer White Humani-tarian Award and the John Wooden Award from Ath-letes for a Better World.
Manning has been named the most caring athlete. He has been honored as the Walter Payton man of the year. He received the Good Guy award from the Sport-
ing News. His performance on the recent USO tour of Afghanistan and Europe was awesome.
I do believe he’ll draw
a crowd at the Tennessee coaching clinic. I may try to
slip in.Marvin West invites reader reaction. His address is [email protected].

diseases, stretching of the jaw as occurs with inserting a breathing tube before surgery, and clenching or grinding of the teeth.
Symptoms are pain in and around the ear, tenderness of the jaw, headaches or neck aches, clicking, popping or grating sounds when opening the mouth, and swelling on the side of the face.
Chiropractic care works on cor-recting a misaligned or out of place temporomandibular joint and can remove the pressure, reducing pain and improving fl exibility and func-tion. Call today for a complimen-tary consultation.
Next time: Scoliosis
By Dr. Donald G. Wegener
TMJ is an acronym for temporoman-dibular joint disorder. Often an extremely painful condition, it is caused by displace-ment of the cartilage where the lower jaw
connects to the skull. This is one of the most commonly used joints in the body. It moves every time you chew, talk or use your mouth at all.
The displacement creates a painful pressure and stretching of the associated sensory nerves. You might have TMJ if you feel like your jaw is locking or clicking, if you have a problem opening your mouth fully or if you have frequent headaches or pains in your neck.
Not all causes are known. Some possible causes or contributing factors are injuries to the jaw area, various forms of arthritis, dental procedures, genetics, hormones, low-level infections, auto-immune

throughout the Knox area will come together Satur-day, April 13, for Inasmuch United Knoxville.
Volunteers have less than one week to com-plete preparations for the massive 2013 mission. Participating churches in the Fountain City Clus-ter are hard at work and those involved say they’ll be ready.
They hope to impact agencies, schools and indi-viduals by covering many needs during this one day. Elaine Womack, a member of the Inasmuch United Knoxville steering com-mittee, is one of thousands
of Inasmuch volunteers across the country.
“We have 24 great proj-ects in the Fountain City Cluster alone,” said Wom-ack. “Our main purpose is to show God’s love to peo-ple through offering sup-port in everyday living.”
Services will be pro-vided to Big Brothers, Big Sisters; East Tennessee Children’s Hospital, Foun-tain City Ministry Center, Human Animal Bond, Hel-en Ross McNabb, Mission of Hope, Rainbow Acres, Compassion Coalition and the Cerebral Palsy Home.
Fountain City Elemen-tary, Inskip Elementa-ry, Sterchi Elementary, Gresham Middle School
and Whittle Springs Mid-dle School will be recipi-ents of landscaping, meals and spring spruce-ups.
Other projects will in-clude services to Agape Outreach Homes, Project Linus of East Tennessee and Samaritan Ministry.
Advance Auto Parts in Fountain City will host a Car Care Clinic, Smith-wood Baptist Church will offer a free car wash in the parking lot and meals will be provided for firefighters at Fountain City Station 15.

Inasmuch United is Saturday
The Beaver Dam Bap-tist Church youth minis-try seeks to evoke an at-mosphere of community for middle and high school students on Wednesday nights.
Middle school grades 6-8 meet on the “Front Porch” while high school grades 9-12 meet in the “Back Yard” inside the education building at the church.
The umbrella of the youth ministry is dubbed “The Neighborhood.” Front Porch and Back Yard evolved from that concept.
“The names give the ministry a homey feel,” said Marla Jellicorse, as-sistant to Scott Hood, Beaver Dam minister of students.
Hood has always had a heart for youth, and Wednesday night youth
meetings serve as an out-let for his ministry tech-nique.
“My desire when I came eight years ago was to build our ministry so that we could equip and edify believers to reach the lost,” said Hood. “We have a goal and a mission to teach that to students.”
As the ministry grew in numbers, a division between middle and high school became necessary.
“There is a huge differ-ence between a 6th grader and a high school senior. We divide our time be-tween the two so as to tar-get each on their level.”
The mind-set of the neighborhood ministry is reminiscent of times when front porch and back yard visitations were a daily event among neighbors and fellowship was com-
mon. Hood says students are being taught to build relationships and to love and support one another as they would family and friends.
“We are inviting stu-dents to come and hang out with us and see what God has to offer.”
The middle school time at the Front Porch in-cludes games, small group time, music and a mes-sage from Hood. The high school session in the Back Yard starts with music, a message from Hood and breaks to small groups. All are invited to join.
Beaver Dam Baptist Church is located at 4328 E. Emory Rd. The youth ministry meets from 6 -7:30 p.m. Wednesdays in the education building. Info: 922-2322.

‘The hardest fun you’ll ever have’By Betty Bean
The Farragut High School Robotics Team is an extracurricular activity for which the students receive no extra credit and the sponsors receive no extra pay.
So what is it that keeps Jill Hudson and Jane Skinner volun-teering to work 30-40 additional hours per week while keeping up with their day jobs?
They both grin.Hudson: “It’s not
the money.”Skinner: “I guess
if it were easy, we wouldn’t keep coming back. We wouldn’t be challenged.”
Hudson: “If it were easy, everybody would do it.”
Skinner: “And they just don’t know how much fun we’re hav-ing.”
Hudson, who is from the Nashville area, teaches technol-ogy and engineering in Farragut’s Career and Technical Edu-cation department. Skinner, who is from Indiana, teaches sci-ence and is the lab and technology coordina-tor for Farragut’s sci-ence department.
Back in 2009, Hud-son had been looking at a variety of robot-ics programs and was feeling overwhelmed.
“I decided there was no way one person could do it,” she said.
Around the same time, Skinner and Kristin Baksa (a science teacher who is no longer at Farragut) were part of the Sci-ence Academy and had been in-vited to a meeting at the University of Tennessee to discuss robotics, and came back enthused about the FIRST Robotics C omp e t i t ion , an interna-tional contest described as “the varsity sport for the mind.”
“They got the ball rolling and got me hooked,” Hudson said.
The initial fundraising was al-most too big a job for the three of them.
“The money was almost insur-
mountable,” Skinner said.The first year, it cost $6,500 just
to enter the competition, and that doesn’t count the hidden “surprise” costs that always seem to happen.
“If somebody wires something incor-
rectly and blows a component, you’re on the hook for anoth-
er $700,” Hudson said.
Plus, the enthusias-tic students frequently want to buy bells and whistles that aren’t in the basic kits.
All this requires vigorous fund-raising and more. Money isn’t the only necessity. Mentors from the
industry who allow students to gain a real world perspective on their projects are equally important.
And, although the formal com-petition is only six weeks long, the work goes on all year long.
The Smoky Mountain Regional FIRST Robotics competition kick-off party was on the first Saturday in January, when this year’s game – Ultimate Ascent, the objective of which was to shoot Frisbees into goals, culminating in robots climb-ing to the top of tri-level towers – was announced at a party on the UT campus, where the kits were pro-cessed and distributed.
And it’s not just about building robots.
“There are lots of other things
involved,” Skinner said. “Marketing, videos, de-sign, community ser-vice.”
They attend engi-neering luncheons, do outreach in elementary and middle schools and are working on getting more girls to participate. They’ll have a robot-ics camp for rising 7th through 9th graders in June, a pancake break-fast in October and a Boy Scouts merit badge event in November.
Skinner described the competition’s at-mosphere as “gracious professionalism,” and said there’s a new word to describe the atmo-sphere – “cooperation”
“It’s not cutthroat – it’s not us against them. It’s how can we help them,” Hudson said. “In the first game, there’s no competition at all; just running around asking other teams, “How can I help you?”
In later rounds, teams will be chosen for alliances, but in the early rounds, nobody knows who their com-petitors will be.
Halls, Hardin Valley and Oak Ridge’s alli-ance took first place at the Smoky Mountain Regionals on March 28-30.
“It’s so much better when everybody works together,” Hudson said. “That’s one of the things we like about this and is something our mentors notice.”
It all adds up to a new and unique learning experience.
“Everybody works together and we all get better. It’s competitive, but you’re raising the bar for every-one.”
“It’s not winner takes all,” Hud-son said. “And ‘winner’ is a very vague word. You can have a great robot and not go to the finals. We win every year. We may not always bring home trophies, but we win every year. You’re not going to see a sign on the road that says ‘Home of 2013 Regional Robotics Champi-ons,’ but we win through so many other routes. A lot of people call it the hardest fun you’ll ever have.”
“That’s the big hook,” Skinner said. “They like learning and so do we. We’re lifelong learners.”

Spring is an exciting time in the Powell High School athletic depart-ment. However, like the weather, things haven’t gotten off to a great start this year. That’s not to say things are bad, though. District tourneys are still four weeks away. And the Panthers have every inten-tion of being ready.
The softball team is cur-rently 6-6 overall but 3-1 in the district with a home district game today (April 8) against the Central Bob-cats. Despite being only .500, the team has some
Slow start for Panthers
impressive early-season wins over Hardin Valley and Oak Ridge.
The team should have a good seed in the district tournament, and a good seed can go a long way in May.
The same can be said for baseball, which has seen both woes and bright spots
of its own.The PHS baseball team
is currently sitting at 8-7 overall, but what’s slightly alarming is the 2-4 district record.
The good news is that the team appears to be coming on strong lately. The Pan-thers went to Murfreesboro for the Riverdale Warrior Classic Tournament. They didn’t leave with any tro-phies, but they certainly didn’t leave disappointed – having beaten two big Nashville-area teams: Mount Juliet 6-5 and Segal 1-0.
“We beat two pretty good teams,” said head coach Jay Scarbro. “We played real well.”
The team showed signs of everything “coming to-gether.” Pitcher Hagen Owenby gave a star perfor-mance against Mount Ju-liet and was complemented by good defense and Clay Payne’s hitting. Sophomore pitcher Hunter McPhet-ridge stepped up to secure the win against Segal.
While the tournament was a positive experience, last week seemed to get the best of the Panthers as they played two talented district foes. Powell dropped a 10-2 game to Oak Ridge on Tues-day and two days later lost
a tough one to Campbell County, 5-2. Scarbro attrib-uted the losses to defensive errors.
“For the most part we have played pretty good defense. But when we make a mistake, it’s a very costly mistake,” said Scarbro. “And it’s at the most awful time.
“Our hitters have put the ball in play and given us a chance,” said Scarbro. “But we have made some very painful defensive er-rors that have been the dif-ference in about all of our seven losses.”
This week’s schedule cer-tainly won’t be any easier.
Tomorrow the boys in orange and black square off
against Anderson County in Powell. AC currently sits at third in the district and is coming off a big win against Halls. On Wednes-day the Panthers will head to Karns to take on the Bea-vers, currently fi rst in the district.
Scarbro knows exactly what the Panthers need to do to win.
“We’ve got to have our defensive guys make some good plays for us,” he said. “As a team we have the abil-ity to play with anybody on our schedule. We have playmakers at every posi-tion. Right now it’s just not coming together. We’ve got to turn things around in a hurry.”

Finger to play at Union College
Powell High School senior Adam Finger has signed a
Letter of Intent to attend and play football at Union College (Ky).
Finger (5-10, 330 pounds) lettered for two years
on the offensive line. He was part of a class that ended its 3-year varsity career with a 37-4 record and appearances in the 2011 Class 5A fi nals and the 2012 semifi nals.
Finger was part of an offensive line that paved the way for Powell’s all-time rushing leader and for the school’s No. 1 and No. 2 all-time total offensive leaders, said Panther broadcaster Bill Mynatt.
Finger’s offensive line coach at Powell was Larry Neely.

No place like homeIt’s spring, and, as in June,
things are “bustin’ out all over.” Everything’s blooming. It’s a beautiful sight.
Sadly, however, it’s not a beautiful sight over at Young-Williams Animal Center. Because along with the daf-fodils and dogwoods comes another symptom of the sea-son: unwanted animals.
“Starting in the spring, the shelter usually receives an infl ux of puppies in need of homes,” says Young-Wil-liams CEO Jeff Ashin. “It’s the start of mating season for dogs and cats, and un-fortunately, many people have not spayed or neutered their pets and end up with litters of animals that they cannot care for.”
The shelter is currently fi lled to capacity.
In order to encourage adoptions and clear space desperately needed for the daily intake of unwanted animals, Young-Williams is reducing fees for all dog adoptions. Now through April 14, it’s offering $50 off the adoption fee for all pup-pies and $25 off the adop-tion fee for all adult dogs. That brings the fees down to $100 and $50 respectively.
It’s a steal. That fee in-cludes more than $600 worth of veterinary care: a physical exam, spay/neuter surgery, DAPP and Kennel Cough vaccinations, heart-worm test, and one month of heartworm prevention, standard deworming, one month of fl ea prevention, nail trim and ear cleaning, and microchipping with registration.
On Feb. 3 of this year, I adopted a shelter dog. He’s a Corgi/Shepherd mix, and I named him Barney Fife be-cause he’s small, he’s full of bravado and he howls off-key.
Barney had already been surrendered back to the shelter by one adoptive fami-ly. Like most dogs, he’s intel-ligent and sensitive; after so many hard knocks, he wasn’t sure he could trust his new home and situation. He was fearful, clingy and needy – a “velcro dog” – and he needed constant reassurance.
I did a little reading about Barney’s various problems. Turns out they’re quite com-mon, and not only in shelter dogs.
With just a little effort on my part, Barney began to turn around. A Gentle Lead-er leash helped him learn to heel on our walks. A crate helped him to feel safe. He easily learned some simple commands. He’s become much happier and calmer. He’s developed an affection-ate friendship with my four (shelter) cats.
I’m telling you this be-cause you may have reser-vations about shelter pets. Yes, they’ve been through some stuff. Yes, they may have behavioral problems at fi rst. On the other hand, you may luck out and get one who settles right in; it’s happened to me before. And of course, puppies are new to the world and haven’t had any problems yet.
But my little guy needed some help. Now, as I watch him sleeping peacefully on the rug with his favorite stuffed toy, I’m reminded that the rewards of owning a shelter dog – of literally saving a life – are immea-surable.
So here’s a heartfelt plea to all kindhearted souls out there: please consider bringing a shelter dog – maybe more than one – into your life. Visit either of the two Young-Williams loca-tions at 3201 Division Street or 6400 Kingston Pike.

By Cindy TaylorA family vacation turned
tragic for Carol Pratt when her father lost his life to a massive heart attack dur-ing the trip. This was a devastating time for Pratt, but it also set a new direc-tion for her life.
“I had always planned to start oil painting when
my kids were older and I had more time,” said Pratt. “When my dad died so sud-denly, I realized how little time we have.”
Pratt creates pieces as gifts and for sale. Her tal-ent is inherited. Her father was a woodworker and her grandmother was a paint-er.
“Art is therapy,” she says. “To give a painting to someone who truly appre-ciates it is like a shot in the arm for me.
“We live in the best landscape around. Nature is what inspires me. You start with nature and then see where it leads.”

Pastor Donny Wadley kindly spent a big chunk of his morning last week talking about his church, his faith and his hopes for the future of First Baptist Church @ Fountain City.
Talking with Pastor Donny
Pastor Donny Wadley with his church’s new sign. He said the
sign signifi es new life inside the walls, where remodeling has
gone on throughout, and with a considerable growth in atten-
dance in recent years. Photo by Libby Morgan
Following a banner crowd on Easter Sunday, he is enthused that the regular Sunday attendance has quadrupled in the past six years, since the church merged with First Baptist Church Powell.
Back in 2006, Wadley was the leader of the college ministry at Powell when Fountain City reached out to them for help. The part-nership began through mu-sic, when the choirs of both churches started working together.
Common interests and a need for new leadership in Fountain City led to more
involvement between the two congregations until it became obvious an offi cial merger would be best for both.
In 2009, Wadley became campus pastor at Fountain City.
“Our members, espe-cially the ones who grew up here, are enthused to see the church renewed with
more people again,” says Wadley.
“We recently began hav-ing a different kind of Sun-day evening service. We call it ‘house groups’ and there are 11 of them. We meet at members’ homes, as a group of friends. We are a very friendly church, and bibli-cally based.
“We want to be in the community, helping teach-ers, especially, and minis-ter outside the walls of the church.
“I love being here, I love the people here, and it’s im-portant to me to really know everyone here. I rejoice in the living word of God. It changes people.”
■ Garden party for art centerFountain City Art Center
will hold its annual Garden Party Luncheon and Auc-tion Benefi t on Saturday, May 11, in the gardens at the home of Ginger and Bill Baxter atop Black Oak Ridge.
Live and silent auctions with items such as original artwork and art classes will be held during the luncheon, and food will be provided by Jeff Patin of the Creamery Park Grill and by art center supporters.

By Ruth WhiteGuests at the John T.
O’Connor Senior Center were in for a big treat when Knox-ville Symphony Orchestra music director Lucas Rich-man stopped by last week.
Richman, a well-known composer and Grammy Award winner, talked with the group about the KSO education and community partnerships and engaged the crowd in a fun sing-a-long.
“Music is a universal lan-guage,” said Richman. “It has an incredible power as a healing force.”
Richman was pleased to announce the receipt of a grant from the Kidney Foun-dation to hire the fi rst music therapist. Orchestra mem-bers will play in neonatal Intensive Care Units, waiting rooms and patient rooms to
help bring about an atmo-sphere of comfort and heal-ing. The musical selections will be determined by spe-cifi c circumstances.
Following Richman’s pre-sentation, high school stu-dent Benjamin Parton per-formed a piece on the violin. Parton was recently selected for the fi rst National Youth Orchestra and will travel to New York over the summer and will work with some of the country’s best profession-al orchestral players. Parton is one of only two Tennessee residents selected for the or-chestra and will be joined by John Paul Powers of Clinton on tuba.
Parton, a Sevier County resident, is the concert mas-ter for the Knoxville Youth Symphony Orchestra and has played with the KYSO for nine years.

Morning Pointe breaks ground in Powell
County commissioner Ed Shouse, county mayor Tim Burchett, In-dependent Healthcare Properties president and CEO Greg Vital, Knoxville Chamber president and CEO Mike Edwards and North Knoxville Medical Cen-ter CEO Rob Followell break ground on the new assisted living and Alzheimer’s memory care community. The facility will feature 53 assisted living apart-ments and 20 ad-ditional apartments dedicated to a focus on Alzheimer’s and memory care. Morning Pointe is a $10 million investment in the com-munity and will provide a positive economic impact of more than $15 million annually. Photos by Ruth White

Application and one-time fee of $10 required. The farmers market will be open 8-11:30 a.m. Saturdays, May 4 to Oct. 26 in the front parking lot of Union County High School. Info: 992-8038.
Knox County Schools (KCS) serves more than 57,000 students in 88 schools and employs about 4,000 teachers.
KCS is the largest part of the total Knox County government’s budget. Last June, the $406.5 million ap-proved for school oper-ations comprised about 60 percent of the coun-ty budget. Nearly $167 million came from the State Basic Education Program (BEP) and most of the remainder from county taxes.
For fi scal year 2014, superintendent Jim McIntyre has proposed an operating budget of $419.75 million, an in-crease of 3.3 percent.
KCS develops two budgets each year: one for operations (sala-ries, books, computers, utilities, etc.) and one for capital expenses, such as new school con-struction. The approval process goes through several stages.
The proposed bud-get is presented to the community and school board in March.
In April, the board accepts the proposal, amends it or declines it. If the board rejects a budget or wants changes, the proposal goes back to the school system. This cycle con-tinues until the board approves it.
The board-approved budget proposal goes to the county mayor’s offi ce, where the mayor and his staff study it and roll the school bud-get, and other depart-ments’ budgets, into the total county gov-ernment budget pro-posal.
Mayor Tim Burchett will present the entire county budget, includ-ing school funding, to County Commission in May.
The commission votes in June.
The board adopts a budget within those levels, with balanced revenues and expendi-tures.
