By Betty BeanOn June 6, 2012, a dozen depu-

ties showed up at Don Wiser’s DUI school to take him to jail.

On June 6, 2013, Wiser sent a letter to the county mayor, the law director and every member of county commission announcing his candidacy for sheriff and ac-cusing incumbent Sheriff Jimmy “J.J.” Jones of abusing the depart-ment’s drive-home vehicle policy by keeping four cars, including a $70,000 Jack Roush R3 Mustang, for his personal use. He also ac-cused Jones of allowing employees who live in surrounding counties to drive Knox County vehicles home overnight.

“That was D-Day, Honey. And I’m declaring war,” Wiser said.

Jones denied Wiser’s accusa-tions and called the retired Knox-ville Police Department investiga-tor a liar.

“In looking at the letter Wiser

wrote, the only truthful statement I found was that I do have a marked vehicle at my house because often I ride patrol,” Jones said. “Every-thing else as far as I know is untrue. And since he stated he is a candi-date for sheriff, it is my personal opinion that he is misinformed and as a former law enforcement offi cer is a disgrace to any man or woman who has ever worn a badge.”

KCSO public information offi cer Martha Dooley released a list of the department’s fl eet, which did not include any of the vehicles Wiser mentioned.

The county fi nance offi ce was unable to shed much light on the situation since the fl eet list does not report vehicles purchased with drug fund money or seized from drug dealers. When asked if KCSO has a high end Mustang classifi ed as a drug enforcement vehicle, Dooley refused to comment.

“I can’t tell you anything be-

cause we get into safety and securi-ty issues,” she said. “Some vehicles are part of drug enforcement and are confi dential, with no taxpayer money involved.”

This is an argument that goes back to the days when then-Coun-ty Commissioner Wanda Moody fi led a raft of lawsuits against then-Sheriff Tim Hutchison in an attempt to force him to be ac-countable to county commission for large expenditures. She won on 18 of the 19 points she made, and Hutchison was convicted of criminal contempt for withhold-ing information.

Moody’s lawyer, Herb Moncier, says he knows nothing about the current sheriff’s policies, but takes a dim view of the historic “veil of secrecy” surrounding drug fund money.

“There’s no secret down there as to who has what car. The prob-lem used to be, they didn’t want

anybody to know what they are doing, because they have more cars than anybody in the world. They’ve got to have insurance on those cars, and all of that’s public information. There may be some limited circumstances as to why a particular person might not want to be identifi ed as driving a par-ticular car, but that’s so limited.”

Wiser, who is a state-certifi ed driver’s safety and drug aware-ness instructor whose students are offenders referred by the court system, shut down his business after being charged with falsely certifying that a student had com-pleted 16 hours of court-ordered safe driving classes. In June, he was charged with tampering with and fabricating evidence, a Class C felony.

The case is currently mired in motions, and Wiser says he will work full time on campaigning for sheriff.

Mike Singletary to talk football,

life at benefi tBy Betsy Pickle

Football has been good to Mike Singletary, and he has been good for football.

But one of the main lessons Singletary has learned through more than 40 years of association with the game is that play-ers have to choose it for the right reasons.

“I think football is won-

derful for the young per-son that wants to play the game,” says Singletary, linebacker coach and as-sistant to the head coach of the Minnesota Vikings. “There are so many par-ents today who are try-ing to make their kids play football because of the money or whatever. I played football because I love the game. Football for me was not just a game; it was life and death.”

Singletary will share his thoughts on football

By Suzanne Foree NealThe Farragut Landscape and

Beautifi cation Committee toured the town recently making note of all things eye-appealing where land-scaping is concerned. It is an annual trip they make to choose the win-ners of the beautifi cation awards, which are presented to some of the town’s best-looking properties – from subdivisions to businesses. Winners were announced at the June 13 meeting of the Farragut Board of Mayor and Aldermen. The winners are:

Residential entrance: Fox Den. An iron gate between two brick pillars is adorned with, appro-priately enough, foxes. An array of white blooms mix with green to give the entrance a park-like setting.

Commercial/offi ce build-ing: Jefferson Federal Bank. The red-brick colonial style build-ing has a landscaped circle in front with fl owers and greenery.

Coffee Break

It can be your neighbor, club leader, bridge partner, boss, father, teacher – anyone you think would be interesting to Farragut Shopper-News readers. Email sugges-tions to Sherri Gardner Howell, [email protected]. Include contact info if you can.

Being drawn to the spiritual and holistic aspects of life, Jana Kadovitz had to have a sense of “meant to be” as she moved to West Knoxville in July 2012. The Los Angeles na-tive felt the time was right to leave California, but the job she had learned about in Knoxville was already fi lled.

“My mother had passed, and I knew inside that it was time for me to move on,” says Jana, who is an acupuncturist with the University of Tennessee Medical Center’s Cancer Institute and is in private practice. “I heard about the job as head acu-puncturist with the integrated health team with the Cancer Institute, but it had already been fi lled when I investigated.”

Knoxville seemed right for her, however, and she stayed focused on making the move. “At the last minute, they lost their acupuncturist, and I was contacted about the job.” Jana now works two days a week with the team, helping cancer patients, their families and caregivers as they work toward being healthy again.

“It is a privilege to be part of this holistic approach,” says Jana. “Since February, I have been working with patients who are going through chemo, working with doctors as we look at the side effects of the medicines and treatments, and working with family members as well. I tell my patients, ‘I am here to help you, but I am just walking with you through this journey.’ They are the ones working to get back to good health. I help them stay calm, trust and have faith that they will be healthy again.”

Jana was a very athletic child who grew up with a twin brother and an older brother. “As the only daughter, I learned early how to be strong – mentally and physically,” she says with a laugh. “I was being groomed to compete in the Olym-pics in gymnastics, played soccer and swam from an early age. Even though I was young, I began to have some serious arthritis issues in my knees, so I gave up the gymnastics.”

Her mother taught her a love of reading, she says, and it was that love that led to a path of discovery. “I have always been an avid reader and love learning about the spiritual and psychological parts of our lives. I got my bachelor’s de-gree in behavioral science from San Jose University. That area of study includes psychology, sociology and anthropol-ogy. For my master’s, I trained in traditional Chinese Ori-ental medicine in Santa Monica. When I began that area of study, I knew I was in the right place.”

The “helping” aspect of her career is what draws her to it, says Jana. “I love working with people, helping them feel better. There is always an emotional component when you can help someone with their pain. It is an honor to walk with

someone toward healing and be a part of that process.”Single, “with two kitty cats,” Jana says she is enjoying

both the people and the physical area of Farragut. “It is so beautiful here,” she says. “Everything is so green and fresh. And the people have been so overwhelmingly welcoming that it is unbelievable.”

A new turn of a phrase Jana fi rst heard in her interac-tions with Tennesseans has become part of her vocabulary. “People here say, ‘I appreciate you.’ I had never heard that before, and it really resonated with me. I love it, and I keep passing it forward.”

In her private practice on North Martinwood in West Knoxville, Jana practices Reiki methods as well as acupunc-ture. Sit and have a Coffee Break as you get to know Jana Kadovitz:

What are you guilty of?Self-doubt.

What is your favorite material possession?My Japa mala, which are Buddhist prayer beads.

What are you reading currently?I am reading “The Alchemist,” by Paulo Coleho for the

second time.

What was your most embarrassing moment? I have more than one but did experience that one

we all have nightmares about: When I was a senior in high school and working at my first job, I tripped and fell f lat in front of a group of people. I think we

were at a business luncheon.

What are the top three things on your bucket list? Get my Ph.D.See a Broadway musical.Traverse the bridge that spans across the Sydney,

Australia, harbor.

What is one word others use to describe you?I think “soothing” fi ts me. I tend to have a very calm

disposition.

If you could change one thing about yourself, what would it be?

Conquer my self-doubt.

What is your passion? To spread around as much compassion as possible.

With whom, living or dead, would you most like to have a long lunch?

My mother. She passed two years ago in October, and I would like to see her again.

Other than your parents, who has had the biggest infl u-ence on your life and why?

It is more of a collective of people and their passions. I have been infl uenced in my life by the lives and works of people like Gandhi, Buddha and Mother Teresa – as well as others who have made a positive mark on this planet.

I still can’t quite get the hang of … Anything mathematically related.

What is the best present you ever received in a box?A watch my parents gave me for high school graduation.

What is the best advice your mother ever gave you?She told me that I could accomplish anything I set my

mind to.

What is your social media of choice? Facebook.

What is the worst job you have ever had?There really isn’t one because all have led me to where

I am today.

What was your favorite Saturday morning cartoon?“Speed Racer.” He always had Trixie and his monkey

to help him.

What irritates you?Miscommunication.

What’s one place in Farragut everyone should visit?I haven’t been here long enough to have a lot of “favor-

ites,” but I am constantly struck by how beautiful the terrain is. It is so open and green.

What is your greatest fear? That I won’t be able to fi nish all I have set out to ac-

complish.

By Sara BarrettStudents at Farragut High

School will now have a sunny spot to study and wait for the bus together thanks to on-going help from their class-mates and some assistance from the community.

Labors of Love is a project started a few years ago by the school’s Leadership Initiative class and the Interact Club. Class of 2013 graduate Sarah Lutz and upcoming senior Marieli Valencia accepted the responsibility of carry-

ing on the work during this past school year. The goal of completing the project has now been handed over to this coming year’s FLI class members.

“Since it’s a big project, we need all the help we can get,” said Lutz.

She became interested in the project while work-ing with students in the special needs class at FHS. “They would wait outside for the bus, and right next to them was a brick wall

that was just falling apart,” said Lutz.

The area – located in front of the CTE building – was previously part of a child care class that is no longer being taught at the school.

Ground cover was in poor condition, and there was no landscaping. If a stu-dent wanted to wait outside, standing or sitting on the sidewalk or off the curb was the only option.

Thanks to students, completed improvements to the outdoor area include the removal of the brick wall, installation of new picnic tables donated by

Home Depot and plants donated by Cedar Row Nursery.

Play Rite will donate ar-tifi cial turf to replace pine needles that are now cov-ering the space, but even with a big break on the price and Play Rite cover-ing a big part of the costs, the students still must raise another $3,000. They plan to continue fundraising ef-forts until they reach their goal. Farragut Rotary re-cently helped with a dona-tion of $1,000.

Lutz said the outdoor space isn’t just for a certain group of students at Farragut

High. It’s for everyone.“We want to give back to

the school since we’ve gotten so much from it,” she said.

The unfortunate news that three Knoxville city police offi cers had pleaded guilty on June 10 to state charges of beating and kicking a handcuffed, men-tally ill person might never have happened without the installation of audio and video equipment in police cars which provides com-plete, irrefutable evidence to what happened when charges of excessive force or brutality occur.

Audio/video necessary in police cars

This equipment was installed on my watch as mayor after a series of events in which three African Americans died separately in police custody in just over a year. The most publicized was the Andre Stinson case.

Many of the accusations which arose during these tragic events boiled down to a case of “he said, you said” between two per-sons with no reliable way to determine the facts. How-ever, once there was a fi lm and tape of what happened, then one could not deny what was on tape or fi lm.

In the vast majority of cases, the police offi cers behaved appropriately and the fi lm/tape upheld their actions. In this case, what happened was shameful, excessive and brutal. The tape/fi lm spoke clearly as to what happened. There was no doubt.

Police Chief David Rausch punished all of those involved, including superiors who failed to review the video as well as others who lied in reports or failed to review all of the available in-cruiser video before approving the of-fi cers’ actions.

Lt. Brad Anders, who re-ceived a written reprimand, is also a Knox County commissioner. A year ago he came within one vote of being elected chair of the County Commission. How this may impact his future political endeavors is un-clear, but it is a negative.

The video/audio equip-ment comes with a cost to taxpayers. When fi rst pur-chased in 1998 it was a VHS system which cost in the $1 million range. In 2003, this system was replaced with Mobile Vision VHS system with a comparable cost. Four years later, in 2007,

the system was replaced with a Digital System at a cost of $1.6 million. Annual maintenance runs around $60,000 according to Chief Rausch.

Rausch stated, “It is a very important and worth-while expenditure. The majority of the time, the video protects the offi cer to show that they are doing their jobs correctly and professionally under some very extremely diffi cult situations.”

It might also be stated that this gives the Depart-ment credibility in that complaints will be handled seriously and acted on when inexcusable conduct occurs as it did here. What Judge Steve Sword will do in terms of sentenc-ing on Aug. 8 is unknown. However, Chief Rausch did what he could to correct a clear wrong by those sworn to uphold the law.

■ On a different legal front, TVA has thrown in the towel on its two-year-old dress code for those attending TVA public hearings by rescinding this policy. However, plaintiffs like attorney Chris Irwin, who wore facial paint and was barred from a TVA hearing, insist the federal court needs to bar TVA from issuing a new policy which may be similar to the old policy. TVA needs all the friends it can secure as the Obama Administration suggests major changes including possible sale. This dress code issue is still in federal court and a fi nal decision has not been made. It is hard to explain why TVA ever embarked on such an infringement of free speech.

■ Special Justice Morris Kizer, former Knoxville city law direc-tor, will be one of fi ve persons to hear the John Hooker lawsuit attacking the current selection pro-cedure for state Supreme Court justices. It is set for July 19 at 1 p.m. CST in Nashville in the Supreme Court chambers. Kizer was appointed by Gov. Bill Haslam.

Knox County Republi-cans will gather at Foun-tain City Park from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday, July 20, for the county-wide GOP picnic, hosted this year by the Halls Re-publican Club.

The event will feature activities for children along with badminton, croquet, horseshoes and live entertainment. A call has gone out for those wishing to show off their talents onstage for the

large crowd expected to attend.

West Knox Republican Club has scheduled its big annual family picnic and cake auction for 6 p.m. Monday, July 8, at Roth-child on Kingston Pike.

Elected officials and candidates for office will compete to see whose baked goods will raise the most money for party cof-fers. There will be games outside for children.

Something about the school board not being sub-ject to term limits is an itch other local politicians can’t stop trying to scratch.

“Why should they be above any other elected of-fi cial in the county?” asked Commissioner Mike Brown, one of the most persistent advocates of term limits for school board members.

In April, County Com-mission approved a reso-lution directing state Rep. Ryan Haynes (as chair of the legislative delegation) to ask the Legislature’s law-yers to fi gure out how term limits could be imposed on the school board. Last week Haynes reported back with the answer – and it wasn’t the one the commissioners hoped to hear.

“If we wanted to enact term limits, we’d have to change the general law,” Haynes said. “And that’s not going to pass the General Assembly. If you want to im-

Messing with the school board

plement it in Knox County, you have to have a rational basis as to why Knox Coun-ty should be singled out as the only county that can do this.”

But the commission-ers probably already knew this, because it was clearly spelled out in Jordan v. Knox County – the lawsuit fi led in 2007 by six county commissioners who wanted to overturn a state Supreme Court ruling that the 1994 term limits referendum was valid.

They succeeded locally, which allowed most of them to run for re-election that August. But they got shot down by the Court of Ap-peals, leading most people to believe that the argument

was over. Since then, many have taken exception to the school board’s non-term-limited status.

The document Haynes brought back cites the Jor-dan decision, which ruled that “general law of the state pre-empts the imposition of term limits for any school board member.”

His Nashville lawyers kept hope alive with a cou-ple of longshot possibilities: drawing up a term limits bill that applies only to school boards in counties with charter governments (Knox and Shelby), or devising a bill of local application for Knox County only. But the Nashville lawyers snatched those slim hopes away in the next paragraph:

“The Legislature shall have no power to suspend any general law for the ben-efi t of any particular indi-vidual, nor to pass any law for the benefi t of individuals inconsistent with the gen-

eral laws of the land.”Haynes sounded like he’s

ready to leave this issue alone.

“The Jordan decision said Knox County couldn’t bind the school board or the judiciary (with term limits). I’m happy to help, but their legal department could have told them the same thing I told them.”

But that doesn’t mean ef-forts to mess with the school board have ended.

Knox County Repub-lican Party chair Ruthie Kuhlman, in a recent let-ter to GOP club presidents, listed fi ve “core principles” to which GOP candidates should adhere:

1. Partisan school board races

2. Term limits for school board

3. County/city debt4. Elected superinten-

dent 5. Using local industries/

contractors.

Farragut Board of Mayor and Aldermen member Ron Honken calls it “the beast,” but he’s never heard it roar. Lucy Gwozdz and several of her Oakmont Circle neigh-bors in Fox Den subdivision call it a noise nuisance that drowns out their peaceful surroundings.

“It” is a looming industri-al-type fan just 100 feet from Gwozdz’s house that is used to cool the No. 3 green at Fox Den Country Club during summer’s hottest weather. Complaints about “the beast” led the Farragut BOMA to discuss the possibility of cre-ating a noise ordinance dur-ing a workshop session prior to the June 13 meeting.

Gwozdz said it was unfor-tunate the board took up the issue on June 13 because two other neighbors were out of town, as was her husband. She was left to plead their case. The homeowners have been proactive in collecting data, however. They used

When one adds up revenue from assorted taxes, building permits and licenses, traf-fi c enforcement fi nes, rent, recreation fees and a few other things, total revenue is projected to be $8,125,547, down a little from this year. Total expenditures to keep the town running ring in at $6,185,519 leaving a fund balance of $4,910,073.

Local and state sales tax revenue is a combined $5,754,070, the largest chunk of revenue for the town.

As the town has added more parks, trails and rec-reation areas, more money is needed to keep things looking spiffy. Public works gets approximately $1.6 million, the most money of any department. Along with personnel costs, there will be some new equipment.

The town will spend just over $3.7 million for employee wages and benefi ts. It em-ploys 47 full-time, eight part-time and 13 seasonal workers.

After shopping around for a new insurance carrier, the town settled on Blue Cross Blue Shield. Town ad-ministrator David Smoak said he expected to see an increase but was surprised when the bid came in at no increase. With changes to

the health insurance indus-try kicking in next year, he said he is glad to get at least a one-year reprieve before things change. Since the town pays 100 percent of the cost for employees, there will be some extra cash in the coffers this round.

The budget allows $33,500 for travel to a cou-ple of Tennessee Municipal League conferences, two National League of Cities conferences and the In-ternational Conference of Shopping Centers.

Community grants total-ing $11,000 will go to six organizations. Education support is included in the budget as well. Farragut High School Foundation and Hardin Valley Acad-

emy Foundation each get $10,000 while Farragut pri-mary, intermediate, middle and high schools and Har-din Valley Academy each get $22,000.

The town will chip in $10,000 to be a partner in Innovation Valley, will set aside funding to boost eco-nomic development and will earmark money for a tour-ism marketing and brand-ing program.

Smoak said he’s been talking with the Tennes-see Department of Trans-portation to see what can be done to beautify the Campbell Station Road/In-terstate 40/75 interchange. “That’s the only change in the Capital Improvement

Plan (CIP),” he said. “We may be able to add plant-ings, but they won’t let us put up a sign.” The budget has a $40,000 line item set aside for that. Everett Road improvements from Union to Smith roads total $3.5 million, which is the largest capital expenditure.

Smoak concluded his presentation by noting, “It’s a balanced budget that meets our needs.” The board passed it on fi rst reading.

The board also passed on fi rst reading an amendment to the Farragut Zoning Or-dinance to adopt the latest fl ood study of Turkey Creek and North Fork Turkey Creek and to update regula-tions accordingly.

Town attorney Tom Hale asked for an executive ses-sion. When the group re-turned, the board voted to approve a settlement with contractor Christopoulos & Kennedy over problems with the splash pad at McFee Park Phase II.

The total contract was $1,577,203 of which $1,479,202.82 had been paid, leaving an unpaid bal-ance of $98,000.35.

Under the agreement, Farragut will pay C&K Con-struction $27,000 and sub-contractor Splash Zone will pay C&K $13,000. All par-ties will sign releases. The town will have to fi nd anoth-er contractor to fi x several problems with the system.

Budget time: Revenues down but budget still adds up

decibel meters to measure the noise level from their homes.

As an example, Gwozdz showed photos of the fan and said meter readings were 81 from her bedroom and even louder outside. She noted that if she lived under Knox County ordinances, the fan would have to be removed because it is louder than the allowed 70 decibels cited in the Knox County noise ordi-nance.

Gary Siddons, Fox Den club president, said he has met with the group and is willing to try to work some-thing out to muffl e the noise, but the fan is staying because the club has an investment to

protect. Scott Severance, golf course superintendent, said he is exploring what could be done but told the board some solutions would void the war-ranty on the fan, a “very ex-pensive” piece of equipment. Apparently the fans are be-coming the norm for courses in hot climates.

A metal shield or row of trees might muffl e the sound, but Siddons noted that usu-ally when people buy a house facing the golf course, they want the view. He said nor-mally the fans are only need-ed in July and August. Gwoz-dz says the fan noise makes for lots of sleepless nights. “If I sell this house, I have to dis-close the noise from the fan,” she noted. “We need an or-dinance to protect residents from noise.”

Honken said he was the one who asked town staff to draft a noise ordinance just to see what it might con-tain but also noted that it may never make it to board

for a vote. Knox County has one, but doesn’t enforce it in Farragut because the town writes its own ordinances. Assistant town administrator Gary Palmer pulled language from towns similar to Farra-gut and put together a draft.

The biggest problem with Farragut writing a noise or-dinance is enforcement, said the aldermen. There is no town police force to enforce it, and there’s no staff work-ing past 5 p.m. Violators could be cited to court, but the most an infraction could cost would be $50.

“Our codes offi cials aren’t trained to handle this kind of issue, and I think it’s better left in the hands of law en-forcement,” Palmer said.

When asked about a his-tory of noise complaints, Palmer said there have been few. Some neighbors objected to bells rung at St. John Neu-mann Catholic Church, one recently complained about a rooster crowing and another

about a loud car. A compro-mise was reached with the church, something Palmer hopes will happen between Fox Den and residents.

Honken echoed that sen-timent. “The issue is one fan on one hole,” he said. “Maybe Fox Den could consider some-thing simple like running the fan from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. and

not to exceed a certain decibel level. Fans are on golf courses everywhere, but I understand the need to have peace of mind.”

For now, the idea of a noise ordinance for Farragut isn’t reaching a high enough deci-bel level with board members to warrant any offi cial consid-eration.

What is the SAM system?SAM stands for Senior Activity

Monitor. It is a system that has the

ability to constantly monitor various activities in almost any

environment. Each activity can then be reported via email, text, or

phone call to a loved one or other caregiver. A person’s activity, or lack

thereof, is a direct indicator of their well being. Of course, no system is a

replacement for actual care of another person, but the SAM system can

provide peace of mind during day to day routines.

Each system is customized for your specifi c needs.

Call us today to set up a free consultation where we can review your

concerns and design a SAM solution specifi cally for you!

“Now is the judgment of this world; now the ruler of this world will be driven out. And I, when I am lifted up from the earth, will draw all people to myself.”

He said this to indicate the kind of death he was to die.(John 12: 32-33 NRSV)

Once the light dawned in my head I could no longer not see it!

The church I have been attending since my marriage is a small church, pastored by a young smart-as-a-whip preacher who (as nearly as I can tell) hits a home run ev-ery Sunday morning.

I tell you that to explain that it is because of his en-grossing sermons that I had missed the import of the pic-ture and its caption.

Above the altar, behind the pulpit, is a picture of Je-sus. That is not unusual in churches. However, under-neath this particular picture

Heavy lifting

is the verse I quoted above, in a slightly different transla-tion: “I, if I be lifted up, will draw all men unto me.”

It is one of my favorite verses because it makes me believe that God’s love and grace are powerful enough, and big enough, and com-prehensive enough, and for-giving enough to gather us all in. All. All of us. A lot of

people disagree with me on that point, and that is their privilege, but that is what I believe.

And, in my own defense, I missed the larger mean-ing because the Gospel writ-er said what he thought it meant: “He said this to indi-cate the kind of death he was to die.” Okay, so that is what I have always thought that comment intended to say. Je-sus was predicting his meth-od of execution: lifted up on a cross, in one of the most hideous forms of torture the Romans could concoct.

But as I sat in church last Sunday, I read those words again, looked at the picture

of Jesus’ face, and my heart heard a completely different message. It stopped me in my mental tracks.

“If I be lifted up….”And who will lift up Jesus?

Me? You? The church? Who?The questions kept fl ood-

ing my soul. What have I done or said recently that lifted up Jesus? Have I wor-shipped him? Adored him? Have I done anything to show my Savior to a hurting, hungry world?

Then the questions got harder.

Have I obeyed him? Have I followed him?

And harder still: Can any-

one see any glimmer of Jesus in my life? What have I done or said that brought him down, instead of lifting him up?

We sing the great hymn “Lift High the Cross,” and it never fails to stir my heart.

But what if we – you and I – lifted up the Christ in-stead? By our actions, our words, our listening, our faith, our constancy, can we lift him up, so that all the world may see and know that “he is Lord of Lords and King of Kings”? (Revelation 17:14) Can we lift him up so that he can draw all men and women unto himself?

O Lord, let it be so.

Against the backdrop of Tennessee’s three-fourths of one point and the excit-ing tie for 77th place in NCAA track and fi eld, I of-fer this brief insight into how things used to be.

“What the mind of man can conceive and believe, it can achieve.”

That was one of Napo-leon Hill’s hallmark expres-sions. It applies to Chuck Rohe.

If you never heard of Hill, you can look him up – Pound, Va., author, journal-ist, attorney, philosopher.

If you don’t know about Rohe, you missed a magnif-icent chapter in Volunteer history.

Because I believe in miracles, I have sometimes wondered if Rohe was one.

Website to honor Chuck Rohe

He seemingly came out of nowhere, with boundless energy and maybe genius intellect, took over a Ten-nessee track team that was below zero, somehow as-sembled an array of cham-pion athletes, drove them relentlessly and collected a cluster of trophies, medals and ribbons.

His Vols routed South-eastern Conference foes, trampled them so badly some schools were embar-

rassed. Programs were upgraded in self-defense. Some, including Alabama, were forced to build a track. Football funded it. Paul “Bear” Bryant resented that.

Because track coaches didn’t get paid much back then, Rohe added a second job, football recruiting co-ordinator for Doug Dickey. Chuck is directly linked to Richmond Flowers and Chip Kell. His concept of dual-sport stars led to Karl Kremser, Willie Gault, Ron Widby and Condredge Hol-loway.

Chuck didn’t stay long at Tennessee, 1962-1971, but long enough to go 87-10 in dual meets and win an as-tonishing 21 consecutive SEC titles – indoor, out-door and cross-country. Six

times his teams fi nished in the NCAA top 10. He was once national coach of the year. He served on the U.S. Olympic Committee.

He went on to more re-warding things, with Char-ley Coffey to Virginia Tech, into event promotion with Pace Management and on to Orlando to resurrect the Tangerine Bowl and lead it to fancy new names, great TV ratings and signifi cant riches.

Rohe ventured into the World Football League as an owner and administrator but we won’t go there. That he was actually able to sell his franchise may have been an-other miracle.

In semi-retirement, he is executive vice president and national director of Nike Coach of the Year Clinics. Each year they attract more than 10,000 football coaches to 20 sites across America. President of that project is a

familiar name, John Majors.Rohe’s former track and

fi eld Vols have been search-ing for a way to honor their coach and say thank you for leadership at a crucial time in their lives. They didn’t like some of it at the time but they cherish it and him now.

Remember: What the mind of man can conceive and believe, it can achieve. “In our pursuit to preserve the legacy and history of the Rohe era, we will build a web-site,” said former distance runner Coppley Vickers.

It will be a repository for old Vols to post formal ex-pressions of appreciation, adventure stories, tall tales and maybe a few lies. Dr. Tom Scott of shot put fame will do the defi nitive audio/video history, Rohe reminiscing. Former UT sports informa-tion director Bud Ford will create a records section with times, heights and distances

of distinction.There will be a keepsake

photo album, even the classic Bill Dyer cartoon of the Vols pushing the team bus when it ran out of gas.

Rohe’s motivational slo-gans will be treated as trea-sures.

One of my long-ago de-scriptions of the coach might get into an obscure corner: “Chuck Rohe was and is a poster person for the power of positive thinking. He loves life, doesn’t want to miss any and drags reluctant others along for the joy ride. Always up before the crack of dawn, he has stretched the truth as needed and greeted each morning with ‘What a day!’”

That might be good enough for the website. May-be I’ll have a little talk with the planning committee. I know those guys.Marvin West invites reader reaction. His

Rated A+

By Ashley BakerMichael Aaron Wil-

liams, 24, wants to influ-ence people worldwide with his artwork. He al-ready has a good start. His artwork has been installed in 13 different countries including England, Aus-tria, Thailand, China, Egypt, Italy, Costa Rica and more. The unusual thing about Williams’ art, however, is that it is not usually found in galleries, although he does have gal-lery pieces and shows. The other aspect of his work is what he calls his “social experiment” or street art.

Williams takes his art work and weaves an in-stallation around it on the street, in marketplaces, at tourist venues – anywhere he feels fits the pieces.

“Street art is basically utilizing public space and installing artwork in or-der for it to interact with the public on the streets rather than solely in a gal-lery format,” Williams says. “Every culture reacts

differently, and I find that fascinating.”

His cardboard cut-out artwork is left on the streets, and he hopes to deliver a message through this medium. “Most of the work I put on the street de-picts the homeless or street children. It is making the analogy that these street people around the world are fragile and need to be protected and loved or else they will be destroyed by life on the streets.”

The work itself is frag-ile, says Williams. “When I paint a picture of a street child and attach it to a wall, it becomes vulnera-ble. At any moment, a per-son could come and tear it down or a storm could de-stroy it. It is just paint and ink on cardboard, attached to a wall or ground using only heavy duty mounting tape. This makes it vul-nerable, but it also gives it hope. If someone really likes the artwork then they can take it off the wall and into their home.”

Street scenesMichael Williams’ art makes social, spiritual statement

In this example of Michael Williams’ street art, his painting of a

little boy on a cardboard cutout is placed in a fi eld of fl owers

and arrows. This installation was in Chiang Rai, Thailand, and

features a young boy he met at an orphanage. Photos submitted

Williams’ faith is the catalyst for his work. “Nothing satisfies like a relationship with Jesus, and that life seems unful-filled without loving God

and loving other people,” he explains. “I love art-work that points towards God through symbolism or through creative means. I aim to plant a seed in

someone’s head of an as-pect of God.”

Williams wants people to search out the meaning in order to leave room for God to interact with them through their relationship with the artwork. For Wil-liams, the mystery of meta-phor is part of the experi-ence. “If I fi gure something out on my own, it sticks with me longer than if some-one just lays it all out for me. I think that this is the same reason Jesus taught through parables. He want-ed us to dig out that meat that He had hidden in those stories,” says Williams.

Williams creates most of his art in his garage which has been transformed into a studio. “I have to wear a coat in the winter and drink lots of water in the summer, but it is a great space,” Williams says. The scope of his art is broad, including painting, draw-ing, mixed media and even sculptural work.

Williams has always loved making things with

his hands. Christian Acad-emy of Knoxville art teach-er Barbara Johnson first spotted the potential in Williams and encouraged him to pursue art. Wil-liams took the encourage-ment and began to create more art. “It wasn’t until I was in high school that I began to create more artwork. And in college is where I became serious about it as a career path.”

Continuing to pursue art, Williams attended Samford University to study fine arts and is an-ticipating starting work to-ward a master’s in fine arts at Washington University. It was as a student at Sam-ford where he first began to put his art on the streets of Birmingham. Williams hopes to continue to travel with his wife and would like to teach art at the col-legiate level.

Two of last summer’s interns have joined the group this year, both returning during the second week:

Madeline Lonas is a sophomore at the L&N

STEM Academy, and this is her third year as an intern with the Shopper News.

She enjoys volunteering with Redeeming Hope Ministries’ Urban Garden Experiment and helps out at Planned Parenthood of Middle and East Ten-

nessee as a senior peer advisor. After high school, Madeline plans to study law, mathematics and political science at the University of Tennessee.

Mitchell Zavadil will be a sophomore at

Farragut High School in the fall. This is his sec-ond year in the intern program,

and he enjoys classic rock including Ozzy Osbourne. He said he is very excited to be a Shopper intern again.

The ‘know it all’ at Knoxville Zoo

By Sara BarrettThe Shopper News in-

terns took a “walk on the east side” last week during a visit with a feathered resident of the Knoxville Zoo, a trip to TDOT’s traffi c management center, lunch at local trea-sure Chandler’s Restaurant and a tour of Beck Cultural

Exchange Center … with a couple of stops in between.

Shopper News publisher Sandra Clark, photogra-pher Ruth White and re-porter Sara Barrett dem-onstrated note taking, photography and keeping both feet firmly on the ground (sorry, Sandra).

If you have only 30 minutes to spend at one of Knoxville’s most beloved tourist attractions, what is the one thing to see?

According to Tina Rolen and Nikki Edwards from the Knoxville Zoo, Congo African Grey Parrot Einstein is the “go to” bird for all

things comical and entertaining.Edwards, the zoo’s lead train-

er and presenter of shows, said Einstein can repeat about 85 sounds on command and knows hundreds more from his sur-roundings. Only one of four par-rots like Einstein can talk, and

he is a popular feature of the “Animals in Action” show held daily at the zoo.

The interns called out differ-ent animals for Einstein to mimic including a chimpanzee and an el-ephant, although the 26-year-old parrot just replied with the word

“Afl ac” when Edwards asked what would make him feel safe if he saw a herd of elephants coming his way.

Rolen, the zoo’s assistant di-rector of marketing, also gave the group a scoop on a new exhibit opening in July: the Williams

Family Giraffe Experience will allow zoo visitors to get up close with giraffes and feed them by hand. Details to come.

Rolen said the zoo sees 400,000 visitors each year. “The only other attraction in Knoxville that brings in more people is UT football.”

The interns visit the TDOT traffi c management center to see the city from a diff erent perspective. Pictured are: Joshua Mode, Tay-

lor Smith, Sarah Dixon, Madeline Lonas, Gibson Calfee, Lindsey Sanders, Paul Brooks, Laura Beeler, Mitchell Zavadil, Zoe Risley,

Mark Nagi of the Tennessee

Department of Transportation

Traffi c with TDOTAfter a quick sprint to

the car, the group headed to TDOT’s Region 1 headquar-ters at Strawberry Plains for a crash course (no pun intended) in traffi c moni-toring.

Community relations of-fi cer Mark Nagi gave the in-terns access to a restricted area where a wall of 18 fl at-screen televisions and three operators keep all eyes on traffi c fl ow throughout Knox County.

Dean Roberts (his Twit-ter account says he provides IT support for the Intelli-gent Transportation System here in town) said there are similar systems in Chatta-nooga, Memphis and Nash-ville. This one opened in May of 2005.

Roberts said the moni-toring system includes 50 miles of fi ber optic network, and it took $20 million to complete. He said that is small potatoes compared to the cost of building more lanes on interstates. For in-stance, the SmartFix proj-ect downtown cost $100 million to construct 9/10 of a mile of roadway.

The cameras are real-time only, Roberts said. TDOT does not record traffi c. “We try to identify things before they become real problems,” said Roberts. TDOT runs the system 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

He wants everyone to “know before you go” by checking TDOT’s website or by calling 511 for the latest traffi c alerts.

Driving through BurlingtonBefore grabbing lunch, the troupe

travelled through a once-bustling area of town that now only has emp-ty buildings and broken signs where thriving businesses once stood.

“Burlington has lost the residential base necessary to sustain the now-shut-

tered businesses,” said Sandra Clark.City leaders “talk a lot about it but

have no concrete plans to help,” Dep-uty Mayor Bill Lyons said in response to an inquiry. “Someone has to put in an initial investment for the city to help with infrastructure,” he said.

Talkative teenagers looked qui-etly at the empty buildings as they rode passed houses overgrown with weeds and outdated strip malls with nothing in them.

“This is sad, really sad,” said Gibson Calfee.

gest restaurant in town, but it’s worth the wait in line to eat some of the tastiest com-fort food in East Tennessee.

During a recent football season when ESPN came to town for College Game Day, the crew polled students at UT to fi nd out their favor-ite Knoxville eating place. Chandler’s won hands down, so the crew spent three days visiting the establishment and ordering food for the day. Unknown to the Chan-dlers, the crew was sampling the menu before returning on day four to reveal their intentions. Chandler’s Deli

was featured on College Game Day and the popular-ity of the restaurant soared.

It’s not hard to under-stand why they are packed at lunchtime or why they have won numerous awards for having the Best Com-fort Food, Best Soul Food and Best Meat and Three in town. The portions are hearty, and one bite will take you back to a place of warm fuzzy memories. While visiting the restau-rant, I tried the rotisserie chicken, homemade mac and cheese and a yeast roll. Everything tasted just like it was prepared – with fresh ingredients and a lot of love.

By Gibson CalfeeChandler’s Deli is an in-

teresting restaurant with a lot of history. It all started in 1997 when Gwen Chandler got laid off from the Levi’s factory in Knoxville because they were relocating.

Then in 2000, Gwen’s husband Charles H. Chan-dler retired from his job at K-25. They wanted to do something else for which-they both had a passion: cooking. Thus, Chandler’s was born.

A visit to Chandler’sCharles Chandler said

“Without her, Gwen, there would be no Chandler’s.”

Since its opening on May 19, 2000, Chandler’s Deli has had many special guests come and enjoy the South-ern-style cooking. Guests

have included former Green Bay Packer Raleigh McKen-zie, Tennessee football play-er Eric Berry, former Ten-nessee football coach Derek Dooley, Gov. Bill Haslam and former “Voice of the Vols” John Ward.

The museum at Beck

By Madeline LonasBeing the largest Afri-

can-American organization in East Tennessee, you can imagine why Beck Cultural Exchange Center is a ma-jor tourist attraction. The house in which most of the artifacts are held is over 125 years old. Throughout the building you see many dif-ferent artifacts, paintings, and other knick-knacks that tell a story of African-Amer-ican history.

Beck is home to more than 10,000 pictures and drawings. The newest is a hand-drawn timeline in-cluding famous African Americans from the 1800s

to modern times. The time-line is black and white with just pictures.

Artist Allen Jones asked Beck organizers if they wanted him to identify the subjects and their time periods. The folks at Beck told him no, that they had a strong feeling every-one would know who they were.

Tour guide Timothy Vass-er’s favorite showcase is in a room full of paintings and drawings. One glass case is full of artifacts from the time of slavery, showcas-ing the equipment used on disobedient slaves. The case includes a neck yoke, a face

mask, shackles, ball and chains, and locks. All were made of metal and used on the slaves. The terrifying stories he told us of how the equipment was used on the slaves were heart-wrench-ing. Vasser said the slaves just wanted what everyone else wanted, rights and a house, to not be owned by someone else and to not be treated poorly. You could tell he was an expert on this.

For everyone with chil-dren, or an eye for history, the Beck Center provides a very fun, educational tour that’s free. Instead if a va-cation, it could be a stay-cation.

After some sweet Southern food at Chandler’s, the group headed to Dandridge Avenue to see the sculpture of internationally known author Alex Haley, located in Haley Heritage Square directly across from Morningside Park.

The roots of our heritageBy Joshua Mode

Whenever you think of African-American history, who do you think of? One person that might come to mind is Alex Haley.

Alex Haley was born in New York, on Aug. 11, 1921, but he grew up with his family in Henning, Tenn. He later went into the Coast Guard for 20 years and was ranked petty offi cer fi rst-class, one of few openings African Americans had at the time.

During his time in the Coast Guard, Haley also taught himself the craft of

writing stories. It is said he was paid by other sail-ors to write love letters to their girlfriends. He re-tired from the Coast Guard in 1959.

In 1976, Haley pub-lished the best-selling nov-el “Roots: The Saga of an American Family,” which is a story about his family’s heritage going all the way back to Africa and their in-credible journey.

My dad is considered the “Alex Haley” of our fam-ily due to all his genealogy research. In a way, Haley inspired my dad. So as I

looked at the grand monu-ment to him, I could see how he has done so much for our country. He sparked the nation’s curiosity to fi nd their heritage again and see who they once were.

This monument stands for many things. Aside from breaking boundaries in being the second-tallest African-American monu-ment in the world, it also is a tribute to fi nding your roots, and daring to try an adventure.

In the words of Alex Haley, “Find the good and praise it.”

After a visit to the Alex Haley statue and Morn-ingside Park, the interns stopped at Beck Cultural Exchange Center to learn about the history of local African-Americans.

The facility has more than 5,000 square feet with archives that include pic-tures, books, artifacts and DVDs. The original model of the Alex Haley statue is housed there.

Beck archivist and tour guide Timothy Vasser showed us a number of original works by local Af-rican-American artists and several pieces of memora-bilia from Knoxville’s segre-gation era. There were also some very sobering items from America’s slavery pe-riod.

“Overseas, slavery wasn’t about color,” said Vasser. “If you lost the battle, you became a slave. It did not become about color until (slavery) came to America.”

Vasser said the most im-portant exhibit in the cen-

ter’s collection is a group of authentic slave restraints that include a ball and chain, an iron collar and a face mask.

Vasser told the interns about a recent visitor who had just come from the Un-derground Railroad Muse-um in Ohio and commented that they should have vis-ited Beck fi rst, because the collection of slavery arti-facts was so impressive.

The second fl oor of the center includes many items from Knoxville native Wil-

liam Hastie Jr., a judge and public educator who, Vasser said, always told people he was a native “Knoxvillian” even long after he moved from the area.

Vasser said donations are needed for the center to continue to thrive. Together, Knox County and the city of Knoxville give Beck about $100,000 annually. The in-terns witnessed fi rsthand the expenses that can arise when Vasser said the air conditioning was not cur-rently working.

By Roxanne AbernathyThe Beck Cultural Ex-

change Center, founded in 1975, is a museum of art and history for Afri-can-American culture, also focusing on dif-ferent parts of the civil rights movement. Many pictures are displayed in

what was once the Beck house.

The Becks were a couple living in Knoxville dur-ing the time of segrega-tion, from the 1920s to the 1960s. Most of the original house is still standing.

Beck has many differ-ent rooms with exhib-

its, including local and modern artists and other historical material. The center is able to continue operating because of do-nations from the com-munity of both time and money. Some fundraising is currently being planned for the summer.

Coach Mike Singletary of the

Minnesota Vikings

54-year-old says by phone from Minnesota. “I always look at my life and go, ‘Lord, why have you been so gra-cious to me?’

“I had an absolutely won-derful mother that just fed me wisdom every day and had a father that, we were not very close, but after he got to a point in his life, we became friends. I began to understand a lot of the things that he did. It did not make it right, but certainly I under-stood how it happened.”

Singletary, who has sev-en children ranging from 26 to 15, says he has counted on God to help him be a good father. How would he rate his success? “If you lis-ten to my kids, it’s been OK, but thank God for Mom,” he says of wife Kim.

Singletary started play-ing football as a seventh grader. He was a stand-out high-school linebacker and earned a scholarship to Baylor University. Cho-sen by the Chicago Bears in the second round of the 1981 NFL Draft, Singletary quickly proved his value. During his 12 years with the team, the man known as

and corporate consultant. His coaching career started in 2003, when the Baltimore Ravens hired him as line-backer coach. He switched coasts in 2005, becoming the San Francisco 49ers as-sistant head coach and line-backer coach before taking over as interim head coach midway through the 2008 season. He was offi cially named head coach for the 2009 season but was fi red just before the last game of the 2010 season.

Singletary says football, especially coaching, is part of God’s plan for his life, and his goal “is to become one of the greatest coaches of all time.”

“I feel that the Lord called me to this game,” says Sin-gletary, who remains grate-ful to the 49ers for giving him his fi rst shot at head coach. “And so I don’t think about, ‘What about this?’ and ‘What about that?’ All I do is, I get up every day, and I act as if I’m going to be one of the greatest coaches of all time. I work that way, I think that way, I talk that way, I pray that way. Anything less than that is unacceptable.”

“Samurai Mike” was named All-Pro eight times. He was elected to the College Foot-ball Hall of Fame in 1995 and the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 1998.

He was part of the infa-mous Chicago Bears Shuf-fl in’ Crew that had a Bill-board-charting rap hit in 1985 with “The Super Bowl Shuffl e,” but that’s an honor he says he could live with-out. “I was trying to burn every one (record) I could fi nd,” he says.

“Gangnam Style” rap written by Karla Fultz for ORAU’s Extreme Classroom Makeover contest

Last week, Fultz’s classroom was shrouded with black plastic for Camp Invention. But the room will soon un-dergo another transformation as the equipment she has purchased is in-stalled. At the end of July, ORAU will host an Extreme Classroom Makeover “reveal” party for last year’s students and their families.

Fultz is excited, but also over-whelmed. She plans to devote much of her time over the next few weeks to learning how to use the new equip-ment. She may not be savvy when it comes to electronics, but her creativity shines through in the video she wrote for the ORAU contest, which is on the consortium’s website.

The video tells the story of a new student being introduced to the class during a science lesson. Technology, one of the students says, is anything that makes life easier, like a tooth-brush or a pencil. The new student asks if the classroom has any examples of technology from this century, then launches into a rap in a “Gangnam Style” video takeoff.

Fultz regrets that the students who worked so hard on the video won’t get to use the new equipment. But she’s happy that most will attend West Valley Mid-dle School, which is one of 11 schools that will pilot Knox County’s one-to-one technology effort (one technology device for each stu-dent) this fall.

Before choosing equipment, Fultz sought the advice of two previous

Extreme Classroom Makeover win-ners. Rocky Hill Elementary 5th grade teacher Jordan Haney won the prize in 2010, and he suggested that Fultz pur-chase a variety of devices for students to use, rather than 24 of the same thing. She chose a mix of notebook computers and tablets will with rotate students throughout the year, and she thinks the variety will keep students engaged.

She also observed how Heather Burkhart, a 5th grade teacher at Pi-geon Forge Middle School, utilizes one-to-one technology. Burkhart, who won the makeover in 2012, constantly assesses her students, which enables her to monitor learning, Fultz says.

Fultz considered spending a chunk of her budget on a new active board, but opted instead to purchase a 70-inch fl at-screen television equipped with Apple TV. Each electronic device in the classroom will be able to com-municate with the television.

She has much to learn, but she’s very motivated to reach

her students, who are often bored at school and anx-ious to get home

so they can use technology there. Work-ing on computers in the

classroom will keep students inter-ested, and also help them prepare for future jobs, she says.

In addition to motivating students, Fultz hopes to make ORAU proud. The consortium wants to see if having

Karla Fultz visits with Ben Keziah, Jared Watkins, Olivia Knowling and Kylie Stooksbury during Camp Invention last week. Keziah, Watkins and Stooksbury were in her 5th grade class last year. Knowling will be a 5th grader at A.L. Lotts this fall.

Karla Fultz, a 5th grade teacher at A.L. Lotts Elementary School, is excited but overwhelmed about learning to use new devices that will soon be installed in her classroom. She received $25,000 to spend on technology from ORAU’s Ex-treme Classroom Makeover contest this spring. Photos by Wendy Smith

technology in the classroom makes a difference in student learning, and she wants her students’ test scores to show that it does, she says.

A. L. Lotts principal Adam Parker will also have an eye on the students in Fultz’s class.

“As we watch the technology class-room environment unfold, it can give us some insight as to how we may be

able to better approach a one-to-one environment effectively as it relates to delivering curriculum,” he says.

Her summer vacation will be short-er than usual, but next month’s “re-veal” will be the culmination of a lot of hard work – and a lot of fun – for Fultz.

“It’s been a really special year for all of us,” she says. “It’s something we’ll never forget.”

Since 2010, parent volun-teer Rose Swanger, along with other parents, has managed the CAK Warrior Chess Club, offering CAK students an op-portunity to have fun learning the game of chess, competing with other students, and rep-resenting CAK in local, state, and national scholastic chess tournaments.

“Chess develops mental sharpness and reasoning skills, teaches patience and re-inforces that, just like actions in their daily lives, every move in chess has a consequence,” Swanger said. “The chess club also cultivates good man-ners and sportsmanship, and teaches respect.”

The Warrior Chess Club recently fi nished its most successful scholastic chess season. This year’s begin-ner group was instructed by Sanchit Wadhawan, a superb chess player and student at Webb High School. The ad-vanced students worked with National Chess Master and three-time Tennessee State Champion Leonard Dickerson. The result was a banner year for the club.

One of the true iconic eateries of several decades ago was the Frontier House on Kingston Pike.

And for the locals, it was often used as a landmark to identify other Kingston Pike establishments. It was also known as the “Farra-gut Country Club” because most of the clientele knew each other and gathered there regularly to social-ize. To that extent, it was very similar to an English Pub or German guest haus.

It was initially oper-ated by John Lee McCarter who hired Marie Turner as manager. John purchased the building in 1959 from Barbara Osborne who, along with her mother and aunt, ran it as a tea house. When John took the plunge, he knew very little about the restaurant business, and I am sure he never envisioned the suc-cess he would have in that venture.

“In 1959, the entire area was very rural,” John re-calls, “and it was so far out in the country our vendors wouldn’t even deliver sup-plies to us. We regularly had to go into Bearden or Knoxville to get our sup-plies. There were not many restaurants out this far, and the vendors didn’t feel it was worth coming out here to service such a small number.”

When John first opened the place, he had a four-member band that played on Friday and Saturday nights in the back room.

We lived very near the es-tablishment and on any given weekend night, we would often get a group of our neighbors together and enjoy an evening of din-ing and dancing to a great band. The band members were Charley Baker on sax-ophone and Jim Clayton on guitar. The other two members were Mel Hines and Ronnie Anderson, and I cannot remember which instruments they played.

After several years, John was ready to “enjoy life” again and decided to sell. At about that time, his brother, Charlie, returned from California and John offered him the opportu-nity to take over the reins. “It was an opportunity I just couldn’t pass up,” said Charlie. “And besides, I knew John would be there to offer advice if I needed him.”

The menu offered good Southern country cook-ing such as fried chicken and country ham, but the real winner was the “Char-lie burger.” As a connois-seur of hamburgers, I can honestly say that it was a burger that had no equal – a large piece of prime ground beef smothered in fried onions with all the trimmings. The exhaust fan also played an impor-tant role because if you drove by with your car windows down and caught the aroma, you were sure to turn around and enjoy a “Charlie burger.”

Two of the many factors

Remembering the Frontier House

that contributed to Char-lie’s success were a great sense of humor and a gen-uine concern for people. The children loved Charlie, and many of the kids that first came with their par-ents brought their children when they became parents. On their closing night, a group of good friends gath-ered to bid Charlie and his wife, Faye, farewell. Faye remembers that some of the children cried.

Although the establish-ment sold beer, the Mc-Carters maintained strict discipline and if someone got too loud they were

asked to leave. John re-members one night he threw a crew of people out who he knew to be truly bad people. John says he was sure they would come back after closing and van-dalize the place. “I spent most of the night on the roof with a shotgun,” says John, “but they never came back.”

Charlie’s sense of humor caused him to tell about two regulars – Earl Hall and Jack Watson – who were having lunch there one day when an ambu-lance came by with its si-ren on. When they pulled

the curtain back to see what was happening, there was so much grease on the window that the sunlight shining through the glass caused a rainbow effect. Earl turned to Jack and said, “I know why Charlie has to charge so much for the ‘Charlie burger,’ he has to pay for these stained -glass windows.”

The McCarters always supported the community events and organizations, particularly those that sponsored children’s ac-tivities. John recalls that he sponsored a little league baseball team called the

Cardinals. But because they sold beer, the organiz-ers would not allow him to use the Frontier House name on the uniform. John recalls that he just put his name on the uniform but that was just as good as using the Frontier House name. Everyone knew who John represented.

When Charlie sold the restaurant, the new own-ers assured him that ev-erything would remain the same – menu, personnel, etc. – but they decided to do considerable modifi-cations which apparently did not go over well with the clientele. And business dropped off almost im-mediately. I guess that is a good example of the old truism: “If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.”

Today, the Concord/Farragut community is blessed with an abundance of restaurants that offer a diversity of many ethnic cuisines, and I really en-joy the variety. But I still yearn for the ambience and friendliness of the Frontier House. And who knows, perhaps someday an es-tablishment will come up with a burger that rivals the “Charlie burger,” but as yet, I have not found one.

bill your doctor gives you. We started out with 17,000 codes and now there are 170,000 of them.”

As an example of re-dundant codes, Barnett said there are 77 different codes for a turtle bite and 44 for a bird bite.

Barnett said reimburse-ment costs to doctors from Medicare do not equal the actual costs incurred by the physician.

As an example, he cited a pneumonia vaccine that costs the physician $74.60 a dose, of which he is reim-bursed only $72, leaving the practice to absorb not only the additional cost of the vaccine, but also the cost of staff, the syringe, billing etc.

As a result of this sort of inequity, Barnett said 27 percent of U.S. doctors now refuse to see Medicare pa-tients, “and I can guarantee you that if you don’t already have a doctor in this town taking your Medicare, you won’t fi nd one.”

Barnett predicted that we will soon see the end of primary care physi-cians, as more and more of them become hospital-ists – practicing within the

confines of the hospi-tal. Left to see patients in their of-fices will be nurse prac-t i t i o n e r s and physi-cian’s assis-tants.

Barnett said the Afford-able Care Act “was well intentioned, but poorly thought out. Twenty mil-lion people will remain un-insured under it.”

Asked what he thinks can improve health care in this country at this point, he said, “Cut back on fed-eral power, improve health care worker efficiency, re-form malpractice, limit ‘futile’ care, empower pa-tients and demand per-sonal responsibility on the part of patients (smoking, obesity, etc.).”

Barnett also offered to donate $1,000 to the Ro-tary Foundation for every West Knox Rotarian “who will write a letter to a po-litical figure saying you’ve had enough and asking them to do something” about the state of health care in the U.S.

Proton Therapy that will occupy a campus-like home in Dowell Springs, Middle-brook Pike, represents not only state-of-the-art treat-ment for cancer patients but also a serious business in-vestment in East Tennessee.

The Dowell Springs fa-cilities now under construc-tion will have three treat-ment units and be able to treat up to 1,500 cancer patients annually, many of whom will come from out-side the area. The Provision Center for Proton Therapy will be the fi rst of its kind in Tennessee and only the sec-ond in the Southeast when it opens in 2014.

In addition, like-minded companies and partners are already making announce-ments about locating in the area. In February, ProNova Solutions announced a ma-

jor invest-ment in an-choring at Pel l issippi Place in Al-coa. Terry D o u g l a s s , chairman of the Provi-sion Center for Proton Therapy, is also CEO of ProNova S olut ion s . D o u g l a s s played an integral role in the devel-opment and c o m m e r -

cialization of PET, positron emission technology, when he was with CTI Molecular Imaging from 1983 to 2005.

A proton is a very, very small thing and a very, very big deal in East Tennes-see. It isn’t often that a new facility that is still a year from opening doors gets as much constant atten-tion as the Provision Center for Proton Therapy is get-ting in Knoxville.

By Anne HartDr. Charlie Barnett’s

talk to West Knox Rotary last week was a wake-up call to anyone in the au-dience harboring positive thoughts about the current

and future status of health care in this country.

Barnett, a former pri-mary care physician in Farragut and the founder of Knoxville’s Free Flu Shot Saturday who is now

a hospitalist, prefaced his remarks by stating his comments had nothing to do with politics. “I voted Democrat all my life until 2005, so anything I say here doesn’t have a thing to

By Sherri Gardner HowellMargaret Scobey had

a front-row seat to world-changing events in the Mid-dle East, and she shared her perspective of the region with members of the Rotary Club of Farragut last week.

Scobey, recently retired from the U.S. Foreign Ser-vice and now building a home in Farragut, was the U.S. Ambassador to Egypt from 2008 until July 2011. She was previously ambas-sador to Syria from late 2003 to early 2005, when she was recalled in reaction to the assassination of for-mer Lebanese Prime Minis-ter Rafi q Hariri. Scobey was ambassador to Egypt when the popular uprising/revo-

lution began in late January 2011.

“The United States was well-aware in late 2010 and 2011 of the unhappiness the people of Egypt had with the regime of President (Hosni) Mubarak,” said Scobey. “The U.S. was constantly on his back about human rights issues.”

Actions in Tunisia sparked what happened in Egypt, said Scobey. “When Tunisian citizens, seem-ingly out of nowhere, took to the streets and instigated a popular coup and not a mili-tary one, the whole social media/information shar-ing took over,” she said. “By January when Ben Ali was ousted, the citizens in Tuni-

sia looked at Egypt and said, ‘Hey, Egypt, what about your country?’ In many ways, it was one man’s efforts that sparked what happened in the rest of the region. The youth of Egypt got the mes-sage, and by late winter, it was over for Mubarak.”

The U.S. knew the prob-lems in Egypt, said Scobey, but did not overtly interfere with Egyptian rule. “We knew there was a youth population bulge. We knew the leaders of the country were corrupt, that there were no jobs and no human rights. We did keep pushing Mubarak on human rights to the point that he wasn’t even listening anymore,” she said. “When the popular upris-

Ambassador’s view of Egypt

ing began, we supported the right to peaceful protest.”

In the volatile Middle East, the U.S. often fi nds itself looking at contradict-ing focal points. “On one

hand, it is exhilarating to see people stand up and demand justice and freedom and hu-man rights, because that is what we hold dear here,” she said. “On the other hand, it is very stressful and a time of deep anxiety for our leaders because of our relationships and crucial interests in what happens in these countries.”

Resolution is going to take time, said Scobey. “I think it is going to take quite a bit of time for things to sort out in Egypt. There are serious is-sues of power and control that are still up in the air. The popular revolution knew what it didn’t want, but there hasn’t been a consensus yet on what kind of country Egypt will be going forward. Will it be a secular nation or will Islamic culture prevail? Only 10 percent of the popu-lation is Christian, which

is a small percentage, but a large number of people. The rest are all Sunni Muslim. Historically, Egyptians have been relatively easy-going and cosmopolitan in the way they live and enjoyed many Western points of view. We will just have to wait and see.”

Scobey grew up in Mem-phis and got her bachelor’s and master’s degrees from the University of Tennes-see. In the audience for her presentation was one of her college friends, Janet Haws, who saw the announcement of her presentation and came by to reconnect. Scobey has a brother in Knoxville and is building a home in Farragut.

do with party affiliation.”Barnett said the prob-

lem with health care in this country “is not distri-bution. The problem is it has become too expensive. Nobody can afford it. En-titlement programs have basically become vote buy-ing programs and they are eating up the federal bud-get. There are 50 million uninsured people in this country because of the cost of health care.”

He described the simple blood test he used to per-form on patients in his of-fice at a cost to the patient of $7. Then the government got involved, forced doc-tors to add actual laborato-ries, “and told us, ‘but now you can charge $175 for a blood test.’ And so we did.”

He said the federal gov-ernment “has completely disenfranchised doctors and hospitals. They took away our tools, overloaded us with documentation (including electronic med-ical records) and with di-agnostic codes. Those are the codes you see on the

As the graduates en-tered the auditorium of Temple Baptist Church to

the sounds of “Pomp and Circumstance,” a sense of accomplishment could be seen on their faces. Principal David Whitaker began the ceremony with a greeting, and Vice Prin-cipal Tim Missey led an opening prayer.

Valedictorian Alex Hwang addressed the audience and his fellow classmates. He recount-ed some of the many memories he made while attending the Academy since kindergarten.

Alex noted, “Only as we live for Christ can we reach satisfaction and know that the life we live is not in vain.”

Alex will be attending UT this fall to pursue a degree in science with plans to go into the med-ical field.

Salutatorian Micah Houston refl ected on those who infl uenced his life. He expressed his gratitude to God for fam-ily, faculty and friends who invested in him and

encouraged him by mak-ing his education possible.

He told his fellow graduates, “Our indi-vidual paths will diverge from here, but the foun-dation of a solid Chris-tian education has been laid as we’re going for-ward as ambassadors for Christ.”

Micah will also be at-tending UT this fall.

Dr. Clarence Sexton, pastor of Temple Baptist Church, was the com-mencement speaker. He spoke to graduates about living a God-guided, dis-ciplined life that brings one freedom and direc-tion. Sexton reminded

the graduates of the gift of education they have received and that the graduation ceremony is not an ending, but a new beginning—an opportu-nity to continue in their pursuit of God and His will for their lives. Sex-ton exhorted the class to develop a philosophy

of life that grows out of knowing God.

The graduates of Tem-ple High School’s class of 2013 are excited about their future and are ea-ger to build on the foun-dation they received while attending Temple Academy.

Many of the students from this year’s class plan to pursue a college educa-tion in a variety fi elds.

On May 7, Temple High School student athletes were treated to a special year-end awards banquet on the campus of Crown College. Temple athletic director Michael Scoggins, along with coaches and assistant coaches, recognized the many special individual and team accomplishments from the 2012-13 school year.

NEWS FROM PARKWEST, WEST KNOXVILLE’S HEALTHCARE LEADER • TREATEDWELL.COM • 374-PARK

Bad things come to those who sit … and sit … and sit …“Sitting is the enemy.”It was a stern warning issued recently by

Mark Conley, manager of therapy services at Fort Sanders West, to a co-worker whose eight-hour shifts in a wobbly offi ce chair had played havoc with his lower back and knees.

Conley isn’t alone in his assessment. In fact, sitting has been called the new plague of the 21st century because of the health ail-ments it can bring.

Unfortunately, sitting is apparently what we do most.

A recent poll of 6,300 people by the In-stitute of Medicine and Public Health found that people average sitting 56 hours a week – either at work, watching TV or in front of their computer screens. Add in time spent driving and just relaxing and some studies suggest we spend anywhere from half to al-most three-fourths of our life in a sitting po-sition.

It’s a trend that physical therapist Jennifer Galloway at the Parkwest Therapy Center at Fort Sanders West sees becoming worse.

“As the labor force ages and works lon-ger into what was considered the retire-ment years, this is a major problem,” said Galloway, who holds a doctorate in physical therapy. “In addition, those people who tend to have sitting-type work positions will often go home and do more sitting at a computer to browse the Internet. In addition, the example we’re setting as parents for a sedentary life-style will continue with our children.”

Of course, that’s not good for a human body engineered for standing and moving.

Prolonged sitting, often defi ned as sitting more than two hours a day, does a number of things to the body, very few of them good. Consider this info from various studies:

■ Immediately after sitting, your calorie-burning rate plunges to one calorie per min-ute, about a third of what it is when walking.

■ Sit a full 24 hours and you have a 40 percent reduction in glucose uptake in insu-lin, which can lead to Type 2 diabetes.

■ Sit more than six hours a day for a year and women begin losing up to 1 percent of their bone mass a year.

■ After a decade or two of sitting more than six hours a day, you’ve increased the chance of dying from heart disease by 64 per-cent and the risk of prostate or breast cancer by 30 percent.

Researchers who once only looked at sit-ting’s role in sedentary behavior are now taking a serious look at the very mechan-ics of sitting and what it does to the body. For one thing, extended periods in a seated position are detrimental to various soft-

tissue structures and muscles throughout the body.

When seated, the hips, spine, shoulder, legs and feet are no longer performing their major functions. Instead, the hip and ab-dominal muscles become shortened and compressed in a bent-hip, rounded-spine position. So when a person stands after a prolonged period of sitting, other muscles not designed for the job initiate the move-ment, leading to overuse of certain tissues and potentially causing back, hip, knee and foot pain.

The upper body also can feel the wrath of prolonged sitting. That’s because when seated in front of a computer or in the driver’s seat, the arms and hands are extended in front of

the torso, creating a forward position thatcauses the shoulders to round forward andthe spine to fl ex. With the arms and shoul-ders in this forward position, the head com-pensates by tilting upward to keep the eyes aligned on the road, computer screen or TV. This, in turn, creates an excessive arching of the neck which, over time, can lead to pain and dysfunction in those areas.

For most of us, the prolonged sitting occursat our offi ce where musculoskeletal problemscan arise out of poor workstation layout ororganization. In fact, one study estimatesthat fully half of all offi ce workers will de-velop some sort of musculoskeletal problem, mostly due to poor posture. The most com-mon complaint, affecting 8 out of 10 workers, is lower back pain.

“The most common problem I fi nd in offi ce work stations is clutter,” said Galloway, who also counsels businesses in creating ergonom-ic work settings. “Often work environmentsare so cluttered that it complicates the work process and effi ciency. The second most com-mon problem is inappropriate seating – one chair size does not fi t all!”

Indeed. Many offi ce chairs lack the properlumbar support to keep the spine upright,forcing workers into a slouching posture andcausing the spine muscles to stretch. Pro-longed stretching of this muscle can result inweakness or injury.

“The actual process of sitting is not harm-ful – it’s prolonged sitting,” says Galloway. “Even if working at a desk, new habits can beformed to modify work with sitting, standingand walking. Modify your sitting position ev-ery hour with a brisk, 5-minute walk aroundyour offi ce or work area.”

Are you at risk for type 2 diabetes? Visit TreatedWell.com and look for “risk assessments” under “interactive tools” on the menu of the home page.

Stand up, get movingPlant yourself at your

desk or in front of your TV for more than six hours, and you become vulnerable not only to bone and muscle problems but also to a slew of other ailments.

That’s the word from a study released last year by a team of British researchers who looked at a meta-anal-ysis of 18 other studies that included almost 800,000 participants and found that prolonged sitting increases the risk of diabetes by 112 percent, heart disease by 147 percent and death by 49 percent.

Still other studies have found that prolonged sitting is associated with a higher risk of colorectal, endome-

trial, ovarian and prostate cancer as well as increased triglyceride levels.

Other ways prolonged sitting can affect your body?

■ The British study found that putting pressure on certain body parts (such as sitting on your duff) can produce up to 50 percent more fat than usual in that area.

■ Glute muscles begin to atrophy or weaken, making them less toned and increasing your risk of back injury.

■ The fl exor muscles in front of your hips shorten and tighten, causing your pelvis to tilt forward slightly and increasing the risk of back injury. The

tilting pelvis also makes your lower abdomen more rounded and creates a pot belly appearance.

■ The abs shorten and tighten with prolonged sitting. This results in a rounded back posture called hyper-kyphosis. The tighter abs also pull the body downward into a slouching position, causing the stomach to bow outward.

■ The hamstrings, in the rear of the upper thighs, contract and shorten as the knees stay bent. These tight hamstrings then work with the tight hip fl exor muscles and cause the pelvis to tilt, contributing to a fl at lower back and pot belly appearance.

Prolonged periods of sitting not only

causes lower back problems, but

a host of other ailments, including

heart disease and diabetes.

Did you know that if you sit for more than six hours a day for two weeks and your muscles begin

to atrophy and it becomes easier to gain weight?

Carol’s Corner

Everything changes, in-cluding the Critter Corner. From now on, it’ll just be “Carol’s Corner.” In the com-ing months you’ll meet all kinds of interesting people – everyday heroes, profession-als in one area with a con-suming interest in another, folks who’ve overcome ex-traordinary circumstances.

And there will still be plenty of critters! This col-umn loves animals and al-ways will. So don’t worry – there are lots of creature features still to come.

But for now, let’s meet one of those interesting people mentioned earlier. She’s a professional musi-cian and has been since she was straight out of college. And in the past few years, she’s discovered another true calling.

West Knox resident Jill

Ch-ch-ch-ch-changes

Bartine, originally from Hou-ma, La., has played fl ute with the Knoxville Symphony Or-chestra since 2000. She also sings and plays fl ute and tin whistle with local Irish band Red-Haired Mary.

She started on her in-strument in the 5th grade, but didn’t really get serious about it until she met famed composer/conductor Alfred Reed during an honor band experience in high school. He steered her toward Northwestern University in Chicago, long recognized as one of the country’s top music schools, where she received her bachelor’s de-gree. After completing her master’s degree at UT, she auditioned for and won a position with the KSO.

Of her role in the orches-tra, Bartine says, “I actually love playing second fl ute as opposed to being the star. When I sing, I naturally gravitate toward lower har-monies, so I guess the same holds true for me on the fl ute. And I’m a detailed-oriented person and player, so I do a good job at paying attention to the principal player and enjoy the chal-lenge of trying to match.”

Busy as she already was with her music, in 2002 she walked into The Rush and had a life-changing experi-ence. She discovered yoga.

“It was pretty much love at fi rst sight,” she says. “It

was the only type of exercise I’d ever done that didn’t feel like exercise. It made me feel extremely powerful, yet peaceful at the same time.”

Over the years Bartine, who dislikes exercise and says she’s never been “a fi tness person,” contin-ued with occasional yoga classes. In the back of her mind was the idea that she might teach yoga one day. But she describes herself as “not naturally fl exible,” and didn’t think she had what it takes. Besides, her music career and the arrival of twin boys Noah and Owen, now 9, kept her mind on other things.

Along the way, a yoga teacher at the Y calmed her “infl exible” fears and ad-vised her that “there was more to teaching yoga than being able to put your foot behind your head.”

In the summer of 2011, she took the plunge and enrolled in The Glowing Body’s 200-hour intensive program. For two weekends each month, she spent 10-hour days practicing poses, learning anatomy, reading and writing about all aspects of yoga. When she received her certifi cation, the jobs started falling right into her lap – fi rst at The Practice, then at The Glowing Body

and Real Hot Yoga.Social media-wise, she is

now “Flutist Yogini” (lookfor her on Facebook.) Shesummarizes her yogic styleas “fl ow, or ‘vinyasa,’ whichcoordinates breath andmovement. Depending onmy audience, sometimes it’son the gentler side, some-times it’s full-on hard-corepower yoga. But in all myclasses, I strive to make thepractice challenging, yet ac-cessible.”

She’s reaped countlessbenefi ts from her own yogapractice. Her allergies aregone, she has better breathcontrol in fl ute playing, andshe is “no longer a worrier.”She’s also gained a half-inchin height.

Bartine stresses thatpeople of all ages and abili-ties can benefi t from yoga,and that “you can even doit in a chair.” She’ll soon be-gin teaching classes at YourJourneys, a PTSD recoveryprogram in Knoxville. Info:http://www.yourjourneys.net/#!ptsd-101/cp86.

As for the foot-behind-the-head issue, she laughs,“I’ll never be able to do that!”For Bartine, what really mat-ters is sharing the richnessof yoga with others. “I abso-lutely love teaching yoga!”Send your story suggestions to news@

Provision off ers personal approach to a healthy diet

By Shana Raley-LuskThough the gift of good

health is something that we all want, making healthy choices can sometimes feel overwhelming. Fortunately, the professionals at Provi-sion take the guesswork out of creating a healthy lifestyle.

According to Chief Dieti-tian and Managing Director Casey Peer, the food in your pantry is a great place to start.

“The foods we eat today are fake,” says Casey. “Good food really does

equal good medicine.”Provision’s “CLEAN up

your WHOLE plate” phi-losophy helps simplify the relationship between good overall health and smart food choices.

The push toward conve-nience foods has introduced chemicals and preservatives that the human body was nev-er meant to digest. Casey says that it is as if our bodies speak only English while processed foods are multilingual.

This “misinformation” can lead to conditions that set up infl ammation, high blood pressure and diabetes. In some more serious cases, it can even lead to cancer,

heart disease and dementia. In all instances, however, it causes an inability to lose weight.

When we eat wholesome food, such as an apple or whole grain, it speaks the same fi gurative language as our bodies. But when those same foods are taken to a factory, they are reconstitut-ed and “enriched” with addi-tives, making them easier to prepare. Of course, preser-vatives and food coloring are added as well.

Another part of the fac-tory creates an attractive la-bel for the processed foods. So when we walk through the grocery store, we are

bombarded with pack-aging that begs for our

attention. “Cereal marketing is a

great example,” Casey points out. “Even with oats, there is a hierarchy. The best choice is steel-cut oats. The less the food is processed, the better it is. Yet consumers are confused with compet-ing packages claiming health benefi ts.”

Casey also cautions that these highly processed fake foods do not contain the nu-trients that our bodies need.

Provision members can schedule one-on-one nutri-tion sessions with Casey. She uses “CLEAN up your

WHOLE plate” to show how food impacts our overall health, tackling topics such as organics, chemical cui-sine, shopping strategies and food preparation.

“Don’t let this be over-whelming,” Casey adds. “Take baby steps, and before you know it, you have covered some ground. Over time you will see tremendous change. You don’t want to look back three months from now and say ‘If only I had started this three months ago.’ Just make a small change to move closer to the person you want to be.”
