Living Fully Without BoundariesEcclesiastes 31-2 41 There is a time for everything and a season for every activity under the heaven2 A time to be born and a time to diehellip4 a time to be weep and a time to laugh a time to mourn and a time to dance

The paragraph below was written by my daughter McKendree and was posted on her Facebook page on National Cancer Survivors Day Her words are written about her friend and soul mate Luis Aguilar as she describes his attitude about surviving cancer

The words lsquocancer survivorrsquo should be used to describe individuals who have chosen to LIVE even when faced with unrelenting circumstances I believe that you are my angel for numerous reasons You entered my life at the beginning of my battle Your battle became mine and mine became yours we fought together as a team The day the doctors told me that I had cancer I knew that it was going to ruin my life I continued with a mindset of fear and bitterness until I met you and you taught me the greatest lesson I have ever learned You taught me how to fall in love with my disease because without it I never would have met you Happy National Cancer Survivors Day for all of the brave souls who have faced their challenges with courage So today I celebrate for you and with you Luis because you are my survivor You survived cancer because you did not let it allow it to stop you from living On the contrary you chose to let it teach you how to live fully and without boundaries I am so proud of you Luis Aguilar Love McKendree

The past five months I have had three very dear friends leave their earthly home to live eternally with God Luis Aguilar David Richardson and Gene Carlisle Luis died of cancer David of pneumonia and Gene of a pulmonary embolism All three men died before their time and much before their loved ones were ready to let go of them They all three left huge vacuums in the lives they left behind because all three lived life fully without boundaries

Luis Aguilar a teen who moved to Memphis to be taken care of by St Jude Childrenrsquos Research Hospital actively traveled and spoke to the Hispanic world on behalf of the hospital more importantly as one mother of another St Jude patient said ldquoLuis taught my son how to live with cancer and make the world more beautiful at the same timerdquo He spent three-and-a-half years in Memphis teaching his fellow patients how to live His funeral was attended by a large contingent of St Jude staff members who expressed their love for him and their general feeling that no patient in the history of the hospital had a greater impact on the hospital than Luis Aguilar He lived without boundaries

David Richardson a husband father of two grandfather of four and at the age of 72 when most peopled had retired went to work every day for Palmer Home for Children and Jonahrsquos Journey Palmer Home for Children originally Palmer Orphanage has been caring for children from Mississippi and Tennessee for 120 years David spent 20 years as the business manager of Independent Presbyterian Church where he served as an Elder before becoming a staff member In his first career David worked for Weaver Cotton Company retired then went to work for IPC David loved the missions of IPC and particularly the numerous international missions supported by the church it was on one of his many mission trips that he was infected by rheumatoid arthritis lung disease

that compromised his lungs making it difficult to fight the pneumonia that took his life In fact the respiratory condition was a constant drain on his energy level and that would have made most men his age enjoy his retirement but David chose to live without boundaries for the sake of others and the God he knew and loved

Gene Carlisle how in a short letter do you do justice to this larger-than-life character I have worked with Gene and his wife Karen on behalf of Palmer Home for Children since 1991 He and I met several times with Wendyrsquos founder Dave Thomas to discuss the need to take care of the social orphans and fatherless children of Mississippi and Tennessee It was only at his funeral that I learned Gene had grown up in a home without a father Genersquos mom moved them to Memphis and Gene went to East High School during a time in our city when a poor child from a single parent home would not have easily been accepted He never took the opportunity to spotlight his difficult childhood as a way of making his accomplishments look bigger he just worked to make opportunities for those living with lives under difficult circumstances

Gene was known by the public as the owner of more than 100 Wendyrsquos restaurants a downtown Memphis real estate developer and a business pioneer Genersquos children spoke of their dad during the funeral and they mentioned that Gene on several occasions had business setbacks that almost cost him everything but no matter what business situation he was in he never stopped encouraging people to rise above their circumstance to accomplish all that God had made them to be When I first met Gene I also met his operational manager John Hughes John attended Genersquos funeral flying in from Kentucky where he now lives John and his partner Mike OrsquoMalley own more than 40 Wendyrsquos restaurants - an opportunity that was made possible to John because of his former boss and friend Gene Carlisle

Genersquos success in business was just a by-product of always looking for a better way for things to be done and a better way for people to live out their lives I sat in the balcony of Independent Presbyterian Church for many years with Gene and Karen as they quietly worshipped the God they loved Gene would then go out into the world to give of himself to all who came his way Gene lived without boundaries and the city of Memphis and tens of thousands of people are better off because of it

Palmer Home for Children has lost two great warriors for the fatherless child St Jude Childrenrsquos Research Hospital has lost a great voice to the world and mentor to his fellow patients I have lost three dear friends we have all lost three inspiring hearts that showed us how to live by being survivors They showed us that surviving is more about living than surviving it is more about loving than surviving it is more about giving than surviving it is ldquoliving fully without boundariesrdquo

Live your life without boundaries while seeking the Peace and Prosperity of Memphis

Peer Power Foundation Expands amp Promises Brighter Futures for KidsBy Stephanie Beliles | Photos courtesy of Peer Power Foundation

C harles McVean and his accomplishments are that of Memphis legend He is the son of an educator and graduated from East High School before going on to graduating from Vanderbilt and eventually building a trading and investments empire back in his hometown of Memphis TN Charles is a concrete example of how hard work and dedication

is essential to achieving goals It was in 2005 when Charles saw his alma mater East High School struggle with standardized test scores and motivating students to attend class Therefore as a consistent man of action Charles McVean reached into his own pocket and Rolodex to create a program that integrates the distinctive strengths of the traditional one-room schoolhouse with those from the American free enterprise system This scalable portable and powerful system of teaching is now known as the Peer Power Foundation and just as it is true to an investment trader the staggering numbers do not lie

Bill Sehnert has dedicated his life to the development of both East High School and Whitehaven High School students As the Director of the Peer Power Foundation since its creation Bill has taken great care in creating and nurturing a group of highly motivated individuals that aid in tutoring and motivating the struggling youth in the two lower-testing school districts East High School is located on Polar Avenue just west of Highland and in a district that is more urban and economically struggling it is a sad reality that at-home and peer circumstance does not provide a scholastically stable environment for some of the arearsquos youth So when test scores caused major concern in the early 2000s the Peer Power Foundation started to recruit stand-out current juniors and seniors in attempts to motivate students in need of academic intervention These student mentors get paid as incentive and as most come from a financially burdened home that is reason enough to stick to the program Since its creation in 2005 the Peer Power Foundation has recruited over 1000 paid mentors As the mentors moved on to college many of them wanted to stay involved Bill cleverly involved the University of Memphis in the Peer Power Foundation allowing college students to get paid and earn credit as a mentor at East and Whitehaven The payoff is two-fold the college students get credit for working in a program they are passionate about and the high school students get to see real-life

success stories from their own high schools neighborhoods and situations The massive accomplishments from the Peer Power Foundation have led to the programrsquos expansion as well as a bevy of better educated Memphis youth

East High School is a beautiful facility The marble stairwells and detailed scaffolding provide an interesting juxtaposition to the schoolrsquos urban reputation But there is noteworthy pride pulsing through the hallways of East High and it is not solely from athletic achievement A huge banner in support of teacher Meah King is tacked up in the main hall in honor of her winning the Milken National Educator Award Meah is also a graduate of East High and she is part of the professional staff that makes up Peer Power Foundation Meah has the teaching advantage of being able to identify and reach to her students However she has a huge gun in her arsenal of motivation a 6 foot 5 inch 300 pound former NCAA football right guard named Malcolm Rawls who stands dauntingly in the back of the classroom scanning heads Malcom is a former East High School Peer Power mentor who went on to excel at both athletics and academics at the University of Memphis and took the full-time position as a Peer Power Fellow someone who acts as a teacherrsquos aide and mentor It is his job to watch over the mentees at East and hold them accountable noting ldquonot many kids want me hunting them down if they donrsquot show up to classrdquo Rawls was playing football for East and working at Churchrsquos Chicken when Bill Senhert approached him about helping his peers graduate Getting a check for something other than frying chicken was appealing to him and he quickly was drawn to the program and what it stood for He and his fellow mentors would go on to spend countless hours tutoring and motivating their classmates enduring catcalls and juvenile ribbing After earning a degree in Spanish Malcom returned to East High School and takes his role seriously he tutors in math science and English and he even started the Poetry Club This unique configuration of Peer Power in the classroom reduces the student to teacher ratio from about 28 to 1 down to roughly 7 to 1

The impact Malcom and the other mentors in the program have in clearing the hurdles of stereotypes are tangible standardized test passing rates leapt from 37 to 91 for students enrolled in the program In 2010 five Peer Power tutors were valedictorians

of their senior classes Overall test scores have more than double since the program was initiated ldquoBefore Peer Power came to many schools the aspirations and mental pictures of the many were bleak foggy and dim Yet once the fusion of Peer Power and the Memphis City School systems began the goals and expectations of students became clearer and more focused in the same way as a great pair of contactsrdquo says mentor April Jones Peer Power participant since 2005 There are countless success stories worthy of a screenplay For example Robert Jackson teaches mathematics at East High School and was discouraged at the testing for incoming students in his freshmen class only 2 made passing grades in math proficiency By the end of their first year Robert had the test rate to nearly 70 Another mentor describes an autistic student who perhaps would have been considered a lost cause joining the fold and receiving a high school diploma something that even 10 years later he prides himself with on social media The receptiveness to getting help from someone from a relatable circumstance is the key to the overwhelming success Kids have real-life proof that they can succeed despite an ldquoat risk youthrdquo label

The program not only works for test scores in the schools- it provides a family structure for the mentors and participants as well The mentors and staff of the Peer Power Foundation all share a familial sentiment Things get very emotional when program staff shares their personal obstacles and appreciation for Peer Power Foundation One staff member participated in the program and went on to earn scholarship to Vanderbilt (as did Charles McVean himself) in a storybook story of perseverance After graduating with honors and with a degree in engineering she came back to East High to make a difference ldquoStudents think they know your life story after they see your outfit for the dayrdquo she quips Polished and composed she corrects the students that assume she does not understand their struggle She endured a family situation with a single mother who was an alcoholic leaving her daughter alone for days at a time

sometime with no running water or electricity Every mentor and staffer has a tearjerker story Every one of them knows that the stereotypes can act as motivation instead of derailment

Now Peer Power Foundation happily announces the ldquoMemphis Modelrdquo a partnership between Shelby County Schools the University of Memphis and Peer Power Foundation that will increase Peer Power operations several fold Memphis Model staff and mentors will provide 1000 hours of instruction per week Dr Vincent Hunter principal of Whitehaven High School stated ldquoThis is great it will help my faculty to reach and teach all of our students This program will be the greatest outside support we have ever hadrdquo This bold move in Shelby County education still uses the successes of Peer Power at East High School as the model for the expansion The programs ldquooriginalrdquo pack of mentors are the driving force behind making the Memphis Model a success story for the cityrsquos at-risk youth The plan includes an extensive training manual and a developmental guide for everyone involved Starting in August this Memphis Model will come to life in schools all over the area

ldquoI want to make my life 10 times betterrdquo is part of the mission statement of the program Courtney Richardson a staff member who is also an ordained minister accomplished musician and college graduate states ldquoIn my earlier years in the program I would often say that the beneficiaries of these contributions were the scholars who participate in the program In retrospect I view this program as an avenue whereby a life lived 10 times better than the average life can be accessed My mind was expanded outside the walls of East High to a world full of opportunity and experiences that are all connected in some way Peer Power is the answer to the contemporary crisis in public educationrdquo If the past 10 years are any indication of measurable success Memphis can look forward to a bigger and brighter future

Peer Power PoemBy Malcom Rawls

Everyday at 215 the last bell ringsFor most this is the end of the day Many students walk or carpool homeBut I have decided that I should stay You see home is where the heart isSo I just have to walk a different way As I walk down the hall I see flyersThat remind me of graduating in MayIrsquom in front of the McVean auditoriumI can now see just how far Irsquove come I remember here during my junior yearThat one of the cool guys called me dumb This same guy dropped out after that year I guess

he thought a life of ignorance was fun I hold the door open because Irsquom politeAnd I see a packed trophy case on the rightEast versus Whitehaven in the Math bowl As long as I live I will not forget that night To my left a few steps that let me know Irsquom near I see my College Tutors that are happy that Irsquom here They ask me about my day and how I did on my test I tell them that I missed a few but I did my very best Finally Irsquom in the library one of the safest places I

know Here I do more than dream of the places that I will go

We all stand in unison as Gerald leads us in our creed Ms Kelly does announcements and tells us what we

need My peer tutor helps me and answers all of my questions

Because I have many more Mr Jackson has a suggestion Go to Khan Academy and practice on these skills

This will earn a 100 on the next text Irsquom just being real I ask my tutor if itrsquos ok and of course she tells me yes Shersquos proud of my hard work and that I do my best From 230 until 330 I gain so much confidence in

an hour Irsquom going to be somebody someday thanks to

COMPETITION WINNER

Thai Coconut Yellow Tail Snapper Ceviche Chef Chad GetchelRiver Oaks Restaurant

1 lb Yellow Tail Snapper 12 oz coconut milk 12 oz rice vinegar 2 limes zested and juiced 2 oranges zested and juiced 1 tsp fresh ginger grated 1 red thai chili sliced 2 scallions chopped 8 leaves thai basil rough chopped 12 bunch cilantro rough chopped

Snapper should be cleaned patted dry and sliced on the bias against the grain in frac14rdquo slices as if for sashimi Snapper can be substituted for any lean white fish Lion fish is another favorite for this recipe

Mix all other wet ingredients and herbs and refrigerate 2 hours to overnight 45 minutes before serving toss fish into marinade and chill Once ready to serve remove fish from marinade I served this over a bed of amaranth mizuna (Japanese mustard green) and mint leaves dressed in fresh Thai vinaigrette then topped the dish with coarse Hawaiian black sea salt and garnished with fried red shiso leaves and fresh lotus root chips dusted with cherry smoked salt

Remember the acids in your marinade work to cook the fish So donrsquot leave your fish in the marinade overnight 45 minutes is the minimum but remove from the marinade if you need to hold your ceviche for longer than 3 hours and keep chilled

DESSERTSOUP SUNDAY

When I met Lin Zheng in 8th grade he and I were in the same geometry class We became friends over the next few years through math competitions and high-fives on the way to science I never imagined that what has happened in his

life over the past year would happen to anyone I know let alone him

In June of last year Lin went to his doctor for a routine physical for a summer camp but this visit proved to be far from normal The doctor noticed some abnormalities in Linrsquos blood so he referred Lin to St Jude Childrenrsquos Research Hospital where he was diagnosed with leukemia

This came as an immediate shock to the Memphis University School community When we started our junior year last August we all noticed his absence We knew we could make it to May but we didnrsquot want to do it without Lin

Linrsquos treatments to help rid him of the cancer took a huge toll on him He had numerous rounds of chemotherapy while he waited on a bone marrow transplant which finally came in September of last year His surgery sparked a lot of support from the MUS community namely the formulation of plans for his 5k by Grayson Lee Ethan Pretsch Henry Trammell John Ross Swaim and me Additionally the entire school prayed for Lin every Friday of this year hoping for a quick recovery

Unfortunately the transplant failed and Linrsquos cancer relapsed this February This meant that he required a second transplant This was extremely difficult news for everyone family friends and classmates

This moment completely changed our schoolrsquos outlook on the gravity of his condition We dedicated a classroom as a prayer room for him We met every day during lunch to pray for him We held moments of silence

for everyone to think about him The 5k group finalized the plans for the Race to Remission to be held in his name Everyone in the school was behind Lin and praying for him

I also established a CaringBridge page for his family to be able to communicate and also receive support particularly when Linrsquos weakened immune system often prevented direct visits Now the family can report the news and people can respond immediately with words of encouragement As the year ended teachers from MUS allowed me to record video messages of them to send directly to Lin in hopes of raising his spirits and giving him more strength to continue the fight

Race day May 16 2015 My friends and I had drawn support for it not just from Linrsquos family and the MUS community but also in high schools all over Memphis But the point of the race was twofold we wanted to not only support Lin but also fundraise for St Jude in appreciation of all that the hospital has done for our classmate We solicited numerous local companies in support of the event and received generous donations from Quest Holding International Tri State Neurology Allenberg Cotton Company Campbell Clinic Baskin Robbins Clif Bar and Mahaffey Tent and Party Rentals In addition to these funds we also raised money through wristband sales t-shirt sales and online donations which culminated in a grand total of over $50000 raised for St Jude Thanks to the efforts of our group and numerous students from Hutchison St Maryrsquos St Georgersquos and others over 225 people showed up to the race to support Lin It was a huge success

There is no question that St Jude does fantastic work and deserves all of the support we can give Nothing hammers this point home harder than seeing a friend and classmate undergoing a traumatic life-threatening experience and then simultaneously realizing he is in the best place in the world to take on and overcome this challenge

Real life can sometimes get in the way of creative pursuits and that is certainly the case for singer-songwriter Bryan Hayes Not only is he a musician with numerous successes he is also a military veteran and it was his service to the USA that sidelined his career for a couple of years Deployment may have stalled his pursuits but Bryan came back with a deeper perspective that he shares in his latest album Still Just a Man10 Years Later

ldquoThere was a two-year window in 2009-10 when I was deployed to Iraq and I had to put the guitar in the closet I was either at Fort Benning Georgia training or in Iraqrdquo Bryan said As you might imagine the experience influenced his art The subject matter in his writing now has more depth than before he was called to active duty ldquoI touch on God and politics a bit in this recordrdquo

Bryan admires the honesty in the songs of John Prine and Guy Clark and he brought that same openness to his post-service writing and performances ldquoSometimes thatrsquos a tough row to hoe when yoursquore playing a lot of the smaller clubs like I do but my songwriting heroes did the same thing They were always open and honest and I loved that about themrdquo he shares With these new more candid songs Bryanrsquos faith is also on display ldquoI have always admired the fact that Billy Joe Shaver has the courage to sing about Christ in bars and clubs I actually got to open for him in late 2014 and I thanked him for thatrdquo

When hersquos not writing or touring Bryan is a producer and engineer at Farmhouse Recording Studio in Moscow TN The studio offers a relaxed rural destination experience for indie musicians creating a record Itrsquos far enough from the big

city to seem worlds away A change of scenery and reasonable rates make Farmhouse an ideal choice for musicians Plus how many other recording studios can tout both top-notch equipment and an on-site fishing hole

If you want to experience Farmhouse but donrsquot have a song to record head up Highway 57 to Moscow for the next Live at Farmhouse Studio event on Sunday September 13 Itrsquos a blend of an old fashioned pot-luck and songwriter night at the Bluebird Cafe The family-friendly afternoon is BYOB and BYOD (dish to share) With horseshoes and live music well it just canrsquot get any more Americana than that

As for Bryan he has a busy schedule traveling coast-to-coast playing his songs that reveal his heart and his passion for music ldquoAs the military tour started winding down I picked up the guitar again in Mosul Iraq and started writing again and reconnecting with music and realized how much I love and missed songwritingrdquo

First with a tour in Iraq and now a USA tour for his newest record Bryan Hayesrsquo art certainly imitates life

A Head Full of GhostsPaul Tremblay | $2599

Misbehaving The Making of Behavioral EconomicsRichard H Thaler | $2795

Laced with antic stories of Thalerrsquos spirited battles with the bastions of traditional economic thinking Misbehaving is a singular look into profound human foibles When economics meets psychology the implications for individuals managers and policy makers are both profound and entertaining

The Worldrsquos Largest Man A MemoirHarrison Scott Key | $2699

The Luckiest Girl AliveJessica Knoll | $2500

In a riveting debut novel that reads like Prep meets Gone Girl a young woman is determined to create the perfect life--husband home and career--until a violent incident from her past threatens to unravel everything and expose her most shocking secret of all

Second LifeS J Watson | $2699

From the New York Times bestselling author of Before I Go to Sleep a sensational new psychological thriller about a woman with a secret identity that threatens to destroy her

The RocksPeter Nichols | $2795

Centered around a popular seaside resort club and its community The Rocks is a double love story that begins with a mystery then moves backward in time era by era to unravel what really happened decades earlier

In my travels to visit family in the Mississippi Delta I chanced upon Turnrow Books in downtown Greenwood a few years ago Being a city boy the bookstore was my haven in a small sleepy country town that didnrsquot have much to offer me other than some beautiful sunsets and amazing potato salad After becoming a fan of Turnrow I was excited to see Jamie Kornegay the owner had published his first novel Considering the quaint and quirky atmosphere that Greenwood has (like most Mississippi towns do) I already understood that the book would be as strange and compelling as the city where his bookstore resides

Soil Kornegayrsquos debut novel is as darkly Southern Gothic as it is humorous With shades of Faulkner and McCarthy Soil captures the disturbing and eccentric world underneath the placidity of rural Southern towns When Jay Mize an idealistic scientist from Memphis moves his family to the country to build a sustainable farm he is immediately plagued by failure His crops die his wife leaves him and his apocalyptic visions give way to an onslaught of paranoia His psychosis spirals deeper when he finds a decomposing body floating in a pond on his land and he convinces himself that he must destroy evidence of the body or be framed for the personrsquos murder

The slow burn of the first few chapters gives way to quite the page turner as the characterrsquos actions grow more and more desperate Disposing of a body Kornegayrsquos book reassures isnrsquot so easy especially with a vulturous cop a nosey stoner neighbor and a concerned estranged wife The book builds to a climactic ending that helped me lose an entire night of housework because I couldnrsquot put the book down Kornegay is able to capture a scene with a masterful hand Each chapter is one haunting scene after the next and you sympathize with the characters even when they are spiraling into madness and depravity Evoking a page out of Macbeth the main character breaks his own nose with a shovel to rid himself of the (possibly imagined) smell of rotting flesh after disposing of the body In another scene the lecherous local sheriffrsquos deputy works to con Mizersquos wife into a romance In another a lonely wanderer watches a stranger murder his dog in the woods These moments are captured so brilliantly and stylishly that they could easily transition from book to screen Think Fargo in the sultry South and you have a winner

Jamie Kornegay will appear at the Mid-South Book Festival on Saturday September 12 at Playhouse on the Square
