Christi Shields jokes that one reason she chose to become a kindergarten teacher was because she’d never have to grow up. Knox County Schools extended kindergarten to a full day this year. Previously, kindergarten students went home at 1 p.m.

Shields says the move has gone well.

Big sign for Costco rejected The Farragut Planning Commission applauded the company for going above and beyond in construction of its building, for building neighborly relations with Powell Acres residents and for efforts to be a good corporate citizen, but balked at granting Costco a larger sign for its building, saying it would open the door to others wanting the same consideration.

By Betsy Pickle During the day, Jennifer Lindsay works with “big overhead cranes” as a mechanical engineer at Alcoa Inc. At night she works with tiny beads, turning them into intricate necklaces and bracelets.

It’s her way of achieving balance.

“It’s very logical, being an engineer,” says the Farragut resident.

“You’re using one side of your brain.

But when I come home and create with my beads, I get to use the other side of my brain and be quite creative and free-flowing.”

Lindsay, the new president of the board of the Art Market Gallery, a cooperative of more than 60 region-

al artists, has been creating art of one kind or another since she was 5 years old and crocheted single-row necklaces for her aunt’s friends.

She tried her hand at macramé, cross-stitch and silk-ribbon embroidery before discovering beadwork.

“I kept refining and figuring out what I enjoyed the most, and the jewelry-making I very much enjoy,” she says.

Her one-of-a-kind pieces were featured at Tula’s Boutique in Turkey Creek during the holidays, and they’re sold at the Art Market Gallery, 422 S. Gay St. in downtown Knoxville, but she hasn’t launched a virtual home for them.

“I have not done that yet because everything is just so unique, and I’m inspired whenever I pick beads and lay them down and they look good,” she says. “I would rather create than worry about selling online right now.”

Lindsay joined the Knoxville chapter of the Embroiderers’ Guild of America shortly after she and her husband moved here from Texas in early 2002. She and some other members started a beading group in September 2003.

John Avant is new leader at First Baptist Concord

By Suzanne Foree Neal Dr. John Avant wasn’t looking for a job, but one found him, bringing him back to the Smoky Mountain region of his childhood.

Avant is the new pastor at First Baptist Concord in Farragut, replacing Dr. Doug Sager, who is retiring after 20 years with the church.

“It was a surprise journey for us,” Avant said in a telephone interview. “I didn’t even have a resumé. The search committee felt led to me.”

A Hendersonville, N.C., native, Avant is currently senior pastor at First Baptist Church of West Monroe in Louisiana.

“The more we looked and the more we prayed, the more drawn we felt to the (Farragut) community,” he said, adding that an extra benefit will be getting

Daughter Amy Daniel is a neo-natal nurse and her husband, Joseph Daniel, is in business. Son Trey is a senior at Louisiana Tech and will marry his fiancée, Brooke Procell, in April. The two hope to head off to school in the fall at a college or university with both a great law school for Trey and a physical therapy program for Brooke.

With a membership of 8,000 and an average attendance of more than 2,000, the church poses a challenge that Avant says he will tackle by meeting with small groups.

“I love to see movements of God rather than just church programs,” he says of his style of church ministry. “I want to see God move in ways that don’t just give us a nice church to go to on Sunday, but change the culture around us. That’s the passion of my ministry.”

Avant first visited First Baptist Concord about 15 years ago as a guest pastor.

He is also an author.

NEWS FROM SUSAN DODD, MD PLLC

Focused on providing the best in women’s health care There is perhaps no health care relationship that is as important to a woman as the one she has with her gynecologist.

This is the doctor she will visit, well or sick, at least once a year. This is the doctor who will play a key role in her health throughout her life, ranging from annual exams to treatment of a variety of disorders to menopausal counseling. This is the doctor with whom she may discuss her most intimate concerns.

Dr. Susan Dodd is a native of Sevier County and has practiced obstetrics and gynecology since 1987 and now focuses exclusively on gynecology. Dr. Dodd is a highly accomplished physician, professor, and community volunteer with a true passion for her profession: providing quality and personalized women’s care in a welcoming environment. It’s no surprise she’s been recognized as a “Top Doc� in Cityview magazine annually since 2002, as a YWCA Tribute to Women human services honoree, and as a Girl Scout Woman of Achievement, among other honors.

The power of listening One of the things for which Susan Dodd is most known – and appreciated – is her gracious bedside manner. She’s a natural listener who puts her patients at ease as they share their concerns. Dr. Dodd is incredibly thorough while being very easy to talk to and is known by patients and colleagues alike for her down-to-earth approach.

It’s not a job – it’s a passion “Choose a job you love, and you will never have to work a day in your life� is a quote that has been attributed to Confucius and perfectly describes Dr. Susan Dodd. For her, gynecology is not a job – it’s a passion. She truly enjoys practicing medicine and helping her patients live healthy lives, and it shows.

The latest in medical knowledge and treatments Along with her noteworthy patient focus and bedside manner, Dr. Dodd stays abreast of all current recommendations on the full range of women’s health testing, and she explains poten-

In addition to board certiďŹ cations from the National Board of Medical Examiners, the American Board of Obstetrics and Gynecology, and the American Registry of Diagnostic Medical Sonography, Dr. Dodd is a published author of papers on numerous women’s health topics in medical journals.

Best known as a doctor who truly listens, Dr. Dodd is patient-focused and caring.

Dr. Dodd’s offices on Parkwest Boulevard include an on-site ultrasound room.

Convenient surgical privileges at multiple hospitals Dr. Dodd’s new ofďŹ ce is located on Parkwest Boulevard in West Knoxville, but she enjoys surgical privileges at UT Medical Center, Parkwest Hospital, and Tennova. This gives her patients a full range of options regarding hospital care should they need surgical treatment.

Accepting new patients

Teaching and mentoring young physicians As an assistant professor at the University of Tennessee Medical Center since 1987 and also as a clinical assistant professor at the James H. Quillen College of Medicine at East Tennessee State University, Dr. Dodd stays on the leading edge of medical knowledge and treatments. Among her many recognitions, one of which she is most proud is being honored with the Chief Residents Award for Excellence in Teaching at the University of Tennessee Research Memorial Hospital.

When practicing obstetrics in addition to gynecology, Dr. Dodd had a full patient list and was not accepting new patients.

Party celebrates holidays, new year It’s not that members of the Rotary Club of Farragut can’t count – it’s just that sometimes the holiday schedule doesn’t leave room to squeeze in another activity.

Enjoying dinner at the Rotary Club of Farragut afterholiday party are, clockwise from left, Ben Harkins, Bill Nichols, Jack Faber, Phill Bradbury and Jeanne Faber.

Sherri Gardner Howell FARRAGUT FACES So the time to party and celebrate for club members, spouses and guests came after the Christmas season.

The club gathered for fellowship and fun at the home of Noah and Allison Myers on Jan. 12 for their “Twelfth Day of Christmas” party.

Beautifully balanced just learning to work with the beads, doing some simple spirals and some simple weaving,” she says.

Nowadays, beads of varying quality are easy to find, but that wasn’t the case a decade ago.

“You could find some books, and you could order beads online,” recalls Lindsay. “Some of the different shops had them. But there really wasn’t a good bead store around Knoxville that had them until the shop called White Fox (in Homberg) opened up.”

Beads became Lindsay’s obsession.

“Every place I went on vacation, I started looking for bead stores,” she says. “Every place I’d go, I bought beads, including in Paris.

“My husband thinks it’s funny. He actually brought me beads back from Venice in 2008. He and some engineers went over on a trip for work. My husband and one of the other guys, they were not even shopping together, and they ended up both buying me beads.”

She was born in Valparaiso and earned her degree in mechanical engineering from Valparaiso University. She chose her career for practical reasons.

“When I was in high school, it was either engineering or medicine, and I started figuring out how much money it was going to cost,” she says. “I figured I could get out of school and not owe as much money go-

ing into engineering than if I went into medicine, so I picked engineering.”

Lindsay keeps her prices reasonable and doesn’t worry about making a lot of money off her jewelry.

“I’m always cautious about the prices because I want to be able to share things with people,” she says. “Right now my passion is to create. Sometimes it keeps me sane, and as I tell people, ‘It’s cheaper than going to therapy, and I always have nice gifts to give.’

“If it ever becomes a task and I don’t enjoy it, things

She shares her knowledge with others, too, teaching a class through the Embroiderers’ Guild from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. on the fourth Saturday of each month at the Hobby Lobby in Turkey Creek.

would live if we really lived out our life, work, family and friendships as we say we believe God wants us to. Church and the Sunday sermon are not the essence of church he wants to lead.

“I use the example: You don’t park your car at the gas station, you have to have the gas. Church will be the fuel, and when we go out those doors on Sunday, that’s when we start doing what we can to help others.

We need to show the love of Jesus and not just talk about it. That is the essence of the church.”

The new pastor believes social media is a way to connect with parishioners and utilizes Facebook, Twitter, email, texting and a colorful website. It’s not like the old days when you might only make that connection on Sunday morning. “I think we’re foolish today if we’re not tied into the latest technology. God has given us a tool, and it’s an opportunity to keep connected to people I shepherd.”

Donna, his wife of 32

From page A-1 years, plans on taking an active role in the new church.

In Louisiana, she is active with court-appointed special advocates and has an interest in helping at-risk children. Also an author, she has just written a guide for women on how to develop through leadership.

Outside of church, John Avant has served as chaplain for law enforcement, high school football and the University of Louisiana Monroe football team.

“We are extremely excited,” he says of the move to First Baptist Concord.

“There’s no way we would leave our church here if we didn’t think we would be going to such a wonderful church and region.”

Sager, who says he plans to remain a member and part of First Baptist Concord in retirement, will copastor with Avant initially to ensure a smooth transition. The church membership in attendance (2,673) on Sunday, Jan. 13, voted 99.2 percent to approve Avant as pastor.

Lyons deciphers ‘The Signal and the Noise’

Gilbert out at Pension Board The city Pension Board at its Jan. 10 meeting added council member Finbarr Saunders to the search committee to find a successor to retiring executive director Mike Cherry (who stays to the end of 2013).

Victor Ashe

Saunders represents city council on the Pension Board. The committee also chose Greg Coker as its chair. It is now a 4-member committee. It will advertise for applicants and all meetings will operate under the open meetings law.

■ Bill Mason, attorney for the Kennerly Montgomery law firm, which has represented the city Pension Board for 40 years (starting in 1972) advised Mayor Rogero (who is chair) that Bud Gilbert, former state senator, who had represented the Pension Board for 22 years, would no longer be in that capacity as he was no longer with the firm.

Mason, who has handled many pension issues over the course of his law practice, has replaced Gilbert for Kennerly Montgomery and attended the recent board meeting. Interestingly, it was not Gilbert who advised the board of his departure. Gilbert is not currently practicing law.

■ There is discussion among Pension Board members as to whether the position of legal counsel will be put out for an RFQ so all attorneys who wish to be considered can apply, or whether Kennerly Montgomery will continue as counsel. The last time the Pension Board solicited qualifications was 10 years ago. Gilbert and his former law firm retained the business after the process was concluded.

Mason, who has an excellent legal reputation, would likely seek to continue representing the Pension Board. However, the Board will discuss the matter at its February meeting as the city Law Department sent the Board a plan to start an RFQ. However, the city Pension Board is independent from the executive branch of

city government and is not obligated to accept the Law Department’s recommendations, even on an RFQ. Rogero and Saunders are known to favor a RFQ. Some local public bodies routinely put out a request for qualifications for professional services such as auditors or attorneys, and others do not. It is considered a best practice to do this on a 3- to 5-year basis. There is little consistency among public boards in this practice.

■ Greg Mackay, the new head of the Public Assemblies, which includes Chilhowee Park and the Civic Auditorium and Colesium, will make $98,000 a year as a starting salary.

His predecessor, Bob Polk, who had been there 17 years, made $115,000 a year when he retired. It is normal for a new person to start at a lesser salary than the person he replaced. Mackay reports to the mayor whereas Polk reported to the former Auditorium Board.

■ Mayor Rogero has joined Mayor Dean of Nashville and Mayor Wharton of Memphis to endorse Democratic Party treasurer Dave Garrison to become state party chair as state Democrats pick a new chair at their Jan. 26 meeting in Nashville.

Democrats in Tennessee today have lower numbers than the Republicans had in the depth of Watergate or after the Goldwater 1964 electoral loss.

What is unusual here is the level of partisan activity that these three nonpartisan mayors, who all happen to be Democrats, are displaying.

They certainly have every right to endorse anyone for any office, but why get involved in an internal Democratic Party fight (4 persons are seeking the position)?

It does indicate all three are playing an active role in rebuilding the state Democratic Party.

Given the current state of the Tennessee Democratic Party, whoever becomes state chair has an uphill struggle to put Democrats back into state offices.

Bill Haslam is a clear favorite to win a second term in 2014, as is Lamar Alexander to win a third U.S. Senate term, also in 2014.

Democrats’ best shot is to win some state House or Senate seats and start their slow rebuilding process there.

In 2008, political junkies all over the country (and perhaps the world) bookmarked Nate Silver’s FiveThirtyEight blog to get his running predictions on the presidential race as well as other important national and state contests. His blog was named for the total number of votes in the Electoral College.

Betty Bean His uncanny accuracy made him legendary.

Named one of Time Magazine’s 100 Most Influential People in 2009, Silver, 34, began his professional life as a sabermetrician (an analyst of baseball statistics).

By 2012, the New York Times had given him a home on its web page, where once again, his following ballooned during the presidential race. And once again, he

a healthy crowd at the inaugural session of “Books Sandwiched In,” Knox County Public Library’s new monthBill Lyons ly lunchtime book discussion at the East Tennessee History Center.

Lyons gave the book two thumbs-up, and said Silver, who analyzes and aggregates data but doesn’t do polls himself, did a masterful job of explaining how he used Bayesian statistics to synthesize past results and current sample data and come up with predictions.

“The signal is the truth and the noise distracts us from the truth,” Lyons said.

“Romney and his folks really believed they were going to win. Apparently they believed that from the evidence they chose to utilize, including things like ‘vibes’ (that they perceived from

drawing large crowds).

There was quite a bit of looking for Nate Silver to get his comeuppance.”

Silver used hedgehog and fox analogies to explain two classes of predictors: hedgehogs are ideology-driven and choose statistics that fit their views; foxes are nonideological and avoid bias.

Silver, of course, is a fox.

Several of Romney’s favorite pollsters, unfortunately for the candidate, were hedgehogs.

“We all make decisions based on variables choosing probable outcomes … But we’re always operating in uncertainty,” Lyons said, ticking off subject areas that illustrate his point: “Baseball, politics, weather, economic trends: Why did nobody predict the economic downturn? The weather – that usually works pretty well.

“Do we really have a good model that we understand, or do we just paddle around in a sea of data that we really don’t understand?”

Law proposes to consolidate accounting

By Betty Bean The state comptroller’s office is pushing a bill called the County Financial Management System Act of 2013 that will move school and general government finance departments into the office of the county mayor.

It is a local option bill, which means counties can opt in by a 2/3 vote of county commission. It is not drafted to include Knox or other counties with a charter, and it has not yet been filed.

Rep. Ryan Haynes, who chairs the new State Government Committee, says this bill is news to him: “I haven’t had an opportunity to discuss this bill with the comptroller’s office, but I’ve got great concerns, so much so that I think others will as well.”

Jason Mumpower, chief of staff for Comptroller Justin Wilson, said the bill “is not in any shape, form or fashion mandatory.”

Currently, counties are operating under the Financial Management Act of 1981.

Before that, the most recent overhaul of the Financial Management Act was in 1957.

“Those two (dates) alone might tell you it’s time to adopt an updated act,” Mumpower said. “It is not mandatory – we’re just providing another tool.”

Mayor Tim Burchett likes the idea and wishes the bill included Knox County.

“I’d like to have more control,” he said. “Currently (the school system) has control of 62 percent of the budget, but unfortunately, this bill won’t apply to us unless the sponsor of the bill added us to it. And

I LOVE IT HERE. BUT THE KIDS DON’T NEED TO KNOW T THAT. When you need a place to live, choose a place where you can really live. A place that cultivates friendship and inspires an adventurous spirit, where caring isn’t only what’s done for you, but something we all do for each other.

was astoundingly accurate.

While public pollsters’ prognostications fluctuated wildly between the two candidates, finally settling on an expectation of a photo-finish that could yield an electoral vote win and a popular vote loss, Silver, who steadfastly forecast the probability of a clean Obama victory, gained millions of fans and not a few detractors (mostly among disgruntled losers).

His book, “The Signal and the Noise: Why Most Predictions Fail, but Some Don’t,” became an instant best-seller, even though it was completed long before Election Day and didn’t deal with the Romney/Obama race.

City Policy Director Bill Lyons, who devoted a considerable chunk of his career as a political science professor, statistician and pollster, might be the bestqualified guy in Knoxville to review Silver’s book, and despite bad weather, he drew

Descendant of Campbell Station’s founder dies odds to establish homes in an area where the native inhabitants were less than enthusiastic about their new neighbors. These were hardy men who had gained a reputation for bravery during the Revolutionary War at the Battle of King’s Mountain, and the experience would serve them well during the early years at the Station.

Although John had been my acquaintance for many years, I got to know him well when he invited me to become the treasurer of historic Pleasant Forest Cemetery, which was established by his cousin, Col. David Campbell, in 1800. John was president of the Pleasant Forest Cemetery Commission for 44 years until his death and took great pride in relating its history to school kids who visited on

field trips. And I am sure that no one who purchased a lot there left the premises without knowing a lot about the cemetery’s history.

Over the past 17 years, John related many stories to me about his ancestors and the challenges they faced during the first nine years at the Station. Nine years after they arrived they felt safe enough to leave the fort and establish farms in the area. John lived on the farm his great-grandfather established in 1796. “Elder� David Campbell built a log block house on the exact spot where the white clapboard two-story home exists today.

He once related that his great uncle James Campbell, who was known at “Big Jimmy,� was huge, standing seven feet tall and weighing more

than 400 pounds. When they realized that they were being watched by the native people, they would send Big Jimmy out to walk around the fort.

Apparently the natives were so awed by his size, they decided if they are all big as him, maybe the Campbells should be left alone.

John spent most of his life farming the land left to him by his grandfather, and although he was involved for a while at a farm machinery company, his real love was farming. And he always put out a garden even when he was in his 80s. I could always count on John ringing our doorbell in early summer with fresh corn, tomatoes and other produce.

I also had the opportunity to serve with John on the Farragut Folklife Museum Guid-

ance Committee. Along with the town of Farragut’s first mayor, Bob Leonard, John was a valuable resource on the early history of our area.

Like so many persons who pass away in their elder years, he had survived many of his friends. His passing and burial services were mostly a family affair. But that is the way John would have wanted it. He accomplished things in a low-key manner and he passed away in the manner in which he had lived: quietly and without much fanfare.

For those who knew him, John Steele Campbell will always be remembered when driving past Pleasant Forest Cemetery or through the intersection of Kingston Pike and Campbell Station Road, where his great grandfather built his cabin 226 years ago.

Costco sign request denied

turedly taken to the woodshed for posting less than professional-looking signs advertising the company’s gas prices on the east side of Lovell Road, just outside the town’s boundary. “That sign you have is illegal in Knoxville. They just don’t enforce it,� said Commissioner Noah Myers.

Commissioners unanimously declined to grant Costco’s request. As for the gas price signs, Rudder said members complained they didn’t know how much gas cost until they drove up to the pumps.

In an attempt to please members, the company put signs across the road, intended to be a temporary fi x. “The first tenet of Costco is to obey the law,� Rudder

said. “We don’t want to be breaking the law, so we’ll get an application in for a gas price sign that’s legal and on Costco property.�

Hawk suggested those gas prices would look good on a ground-mounted sign.

At the start of the meeting, chair Rita Holladay reported that some members had been approached by a developer who wanted to speak one-on-one with each commissioner about a project before it came before the commission. She said assistant town administrator Gary Palmer had researched the legality of such a request in the past in light of the state’s Sunshine Law prohibiting “back room meetings� with government officials.

“The planning commission acts collectively, and I want to be sure all members get the same information,� she said, adding that if anyone is given information about a project, it should be given to Hawk, copied and given to all members. “I want to be sure we’re not getting individual information that’s not going to all members. I hope this won’t come up again. I want this to be an above-board discussion.�

Commissioners approved a site plan for a medical office building at Admiral Pointe Shopping Center.

A few staff issues with the building will be addressed, the most noticeable being the addition of a sidewalk to a section of the parking lot.

On Nov. 20, the last remaining Campbell in the Concord-Farragut area passed into history and the town lost its only remaining First Family member.

John Steele Campbell was the great grandson of “elder�

David Campbell, who along with Col. David Campbell, Andrew Campbell and James Campbell founded Campbell’s Station, which is now the town of Farragut.

The Campbell cousins, emigrants from Ulster, Scotland, migrated here from Augusta County, Va., and arrived on March 7, 1787 – two years before George Washington was elected president in 1789.

They followed Indian and wild game trails along the crests of ridges through primeval forests until they discovered a large spring where the Farra-

By Suzanne Foree Neal Bigger isn’t better. That’s the message the Farragut Municipal Planning Commission delivered to Costco Warehouse Club representatives at Thursday night’s meeting.

The commission applauded the company for going above and beyond in construction of its building, for building neighborly relations with Powell Acres residents and for efforts to be a good corporate citizen, but balked at granting a larger sign for the building, saying it would open the door to others wanting the same consideration.

Community Development director Ruth Hawk reminded commissioners of the discussion at last month’s meeting regarding ratios and also that signs are intended to be a way-finding

gut baseball diamond is now located.

They built their cabins a few hundred yards west of the spring in what is now the Campbell Station Road and Kingston Pike intersection.

At that time Campbell’s Station was the westernmost settlement on the frontier. It later became the staging area for settlers moving west to the Cumberland Settlements and on to Nashborough (now Nashville).

These early pioneers struggled against formidable

device. Costco maintains that the sign, visible only from the parking lot, is too small in proportion to the building.

Hawk shared photos to prove her point that neither a larger sign on the parking lot side nor another sign on the east side of the building would be visible to motorists driving on either Lovell Road or Kingston Pike due to the lay of the land and Walgreens.

Jeff Rudder, Costco director of real estate development, said he agreed with 99 percent of what Hawk said, but stated the desire for the new sign is because the current sign isn’t large

enough to look good with the size of the building. The requested ratio of 2-1/2:1 is above the 1:1 ratio approved by the town.

Costco requested a text amendment and not an ordinance variance. Mayor Ralph McGill said, “The worst thing we can do is do something a lawyer deems arbitrary. We’ll get sued.�

Hawk stressed again that the best fit for the company would be a ground-mounted sign on Lovell Road at the entrance to its gas station, but Rudder said Costco’s CEO doesn’t like groundmounted signs.

Two women at the well While Jacob was still speaking with them, Rachel came with her father’s sheep; for she kept them. Now when Jacob saw Rachel, the daughter of his mother’s brother Laban, and the sheep of his mother’s brother Laban, Jacob went up and rolled the stone from the well’s mouth, and watered the flock of his mother’s brother Laban.

usually done by the women, and thus the visit to the well became a social occasion too.

The women visited, caught up on village news, gossiped, joked, teased, empathized and encouraged each other, much like women of today.

The snippets of Scripture quoted above, however, recount two encounters at the very same well, roughly 1,300 years apart.

These stories are strange to us, and at the same time, they are very familiar.

Jacob looked at Rachel, saw a beautiful young woman and fell in love. Jesus, on the other hand, saw the Samaritan woman, looked deep into her soul, and told her the truth about herself.

Important things happened at that well. Jacob found the love of his life. The Samaritan woman found truth, meaning, freedom and a Savior.

Where are the places and the moments in our own lives when love and truth intersect?

It is vital for each of us to have someone in our lives who loves us enough to tell us the truth. That person can be a parent, sibling, child, spouse, friend, pastor or colleague.

And we, for our part, have to be willing to hear that truth.

Like Joseph, we may come to the well seeking only water and find that we have discovered love.

Like the Samaritan woman, we may come to the well

seeking only water, and find – to our surprise – that we have discovered truth, direction, meaning, liberation, salvation.

Both Joseph and the woman were surprised. That is how God works.

Sometimes, God sneaks up on us and pours out blessings, drenching us with love, laughter, joy, freedom, contentment. Other times, we have to make the trek to the well, and we have to carry that heavy container to hold the water.

Then, and only then, will we receive what God has stored up for us.

My prayer for you is that God will bless you today and every day in all the ways that lead you to drink deeply of His goodness, mercy and love.

Clubhouse Guatemala at Providence Church

By Theresa Edwards Guatemala, a Central American country of 13 million, is very near to the hearts of people at Providence Church and the Karns High School cheerleaders.

Greg Greer, executive pastor of Providence Church, led a ministry team to Guatemala.

Executive pastor Greg Greer led a team partnering with Knoxvilleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Clubhouse Guatemala to work in the village of San Mateo for a week in June 2012.

The team conducted a fun Vacation Bible School with inflatables on the final day and gave small toys to the children. The team also built chicken coops, painted and made repairs. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Taylor (Piper) was very

impacted by the trip seeing these children who literally had nothing as far as material things, but who were happy to just spend time with us,â&#x20AC;? said Robin Piper. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We left a piece of our heart there when we (returned home).â&#x20AC;?

Taylor was excited to share her experience with everyone about this amazing trip.

Karns cheerleaders were so touched by her stories, they joined her in collecting donations at the basketball games to raise $400 in building materials for a Guatemalan familyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s house. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The house is basically laying a concrete floor and constructing a metal building. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s very nice for their standards, but it shouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t take long for us to build it,â&#x20AC;? said Greer.

Providence Church plans to send more mission teams this year to build a church in San Mateo.

Several churches, families and individuals partner with Clubhouse Guatemala, which was started in 2003

by Mike and Carla Parker of Knoxville.

Heartwarming crafts and food

By Cindy Taylor Fifty-six years seems like a long time to most people. According to Joan and Floyd Rutherford, it goes by in a flash. The two have accumulated 112 years of creativity during their 56-year marriage.

DOWN-home UPdate Floyd retired 30 years ago when his company closed down. Since that time he has farmed and raised cattle. Five years ago, at age 76, he discovered a new talent.

From gun cabinets to shoeshine boxes to toys, Rutherford has designed and built items out of wood harvested from his property. He takes the wood to a nearby sawmill for cutting and then places it under a shed in his backyard until it is cured, a 6-month process, and ready for his nimble fingers to form it into a beautiful work of art. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I just wanted some-

Floyd Rutherford surveys his shed of drying lumber. thing else to do,â&#x20AC;? said Rutherford. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t grow up doing this and never really thought about it before five years ago.â&#x20AC;?

Rutherford takes the wood from a rough piece to a sleek finished product. After completing his first piece, he realized he had both talent and a love for woodworking. He inscribes the date on each finished piece. His favorite wood is walnut or cedar, and his shop is his haven. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Sometimes I canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t sleep and Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be in my shop as early as 5 a.m.â&#x20AC;?

He has built many items that are scattered throughout his home; bookshelves, the kitchen table, side tables, benches and one of his favorites, his wifeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s recipe box. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I love to eat as much as I love to work with wood,â&#x20AC;? said Rutherford. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I made her a recipe box and shelves to hold her cookbooks so I get lots of cakes and pies.â&#x20AC;?

While Floyd is in his workshop outside, Joan is in the kitchen whipping up goodies. She is well-known in Union County for her

cooking. Her kitchen wall is filled with certificates she has been awarded for her food creations. Joan is always happy to share her recipes with others. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I have a friend who asked me for some of my recipes,â&#x20AC;? said Joan. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have a typewriter or computer so I hand wrote a bunch of my recipes and put them in a book for her.â&#x20AC;?

Rutherford is often asked to bring her homemade fried apple pies or chocolate pie, Floydâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s favorite, to family and community events. A shelf made by Floyd holds dozens of her favorite cookbooks.

Union County is full of unique folks, and Floyd and Joan Rutherford are two very special, talented people. Joan has shared her recipe for date nut rolls with Shopper readers.

Shopper-News Presents Miracle Makers

The move to full-day kindergar ten

By Jake Mabe Christi Shields jokes that one reason she chose to become a kindergarten teacher was because she’d never have to grow up.

The 15-year educator, who has taught at Brickey-McCloud Elementary for the last six years, says while growing up she loved babysitting and working with kids in youth groups and teaching Sunday school at her church. At UT, she began studying psychology, particularly human learning and behavior, but soon decided teaching was her calling. She also holds a master’s degree from Carson-Newman.

Knox County Schools extended kindergarten to a full day this year.

Previously, kindergarten students went home at 1 p.m. Shields says the move has gone well.

“I wasn’t sure how (the students) were going to handle it. They were used to naps. Some were tired at the beginning of the year, but we’ve worked their endurance up by holding shorter activities and having more movement from activity to activity until they could handle longer periods of sitting, writing and reading.”

Shields says the longer day “has been awesome for all types of kids,” giving teachers more time to work with struggling students in small groups, for example, or giving students “in the middle” more time for enrichment.

“We do a lot of small group work during the day.”

She says the extended day has also allowed teachers to integrate more science and social studies into the students’ writing.

“Before, we had a hard time getting done by 1 o’clock. Now, we have a lot of time to do writing. It’s been wonderful.”

Shields says the students perform “a variety of different things all day long,” including working in small groups, independent reading, and moving to various work stations around the classroom, “mostly literacy related.” Some activities are performed on computers and iPads.

“All the activities are things developmentally appropriate for a kindergarten child to do. Sometimes they think they are playing when they are actually learning.”

Students are often paired with a partner. Shields selects the pairings, which are switched every nine weeks.

“They love it (working with a partner). It’s their absolute favorite part of the day. It also helps them continue to develop socialization skills.”

Shields says when students enter kindergarten, the teachers hope they know how to write their names and

are familiar with some letters and sounds. She says “it’s helpful” if the students can count to 10 and rhyme words.

She says the students practice learning one letter of the alphabet per day for the first few weeks and then a letter a week, “like the old kindergarten (curriculum).” The first half of the year is dedicated to letters, sounds and phonics, while the second half focuses on writing and reading more difficult text.

When they leave kindergarten, students are expected to be able to read simple text and write three to five connecting sentences on a topic.

Shields says increased expectations for kindergartners is the biggest change she’s seen in her career.

The kindergarten curriculum now is more like the old 1st grade curriculum, she says.

“When I first came into teaching, I was basically doing what would now be considered preschool.

The expectations have jumped a whole year. Students are expected to read and write by the end of the year when some don’t know their letters at the beginning of the year. It’s a long haul for some of these kids.”

Shields left Knox County to teach for five years in Rutherford County after beginning her career at West Haven Elementary. When she returned eight years ago to teach at

Norwood Elementary and saw the increased curriculum for kindergartners, she says, “I didn’t know if they could do this. But it’s amazing the progress you see. They pick it up.”

She says the kindergarten teachers at Brickey-McCloud work as a team and that their collaboration is invaluable.

“We work in planning sessions on Tuesdays and PLCs (Professional Learning Communities) on Thursdays. When we work in planning sessions, for example, we discuss ideas to get kids from one reading level to another. We all have different talents that everyone brings to the table.

Somebody might be strong in phonics or math and we help each other out.”

She says the collaboration time has “caused us to be focused.” Each teacher is asked to look for teaching strategies in three areas. Following each PLC meeting, they’re asked to practice them in the classroom, bring

Knox County Council PTA

work samples back to the following week’s session and see how well it worked and whether the other teachers can adopt the strategies.

If she could wave a magic wand and receive anything she doesn’t currently have, Shields says it would be more planning time. In addition to the planning and PLC sessions, kindergarten teachers get 45 minutes (extended by 15 minutes this year when kindergarten was expanded to a full day) of designated planning time in their classrooms three days a week.

“The rest is after school. It’s really hard to get everything planned. We spend a lot of time here after school to get everything done.”

During the course of her career, Shields spent one year teaching 4th grade and one year teaching 1st grade. But kindergarten is where her heart lies.

“I love it!” she says with a grin.

NEWS FROM CONSTRUCTION PLUS

A reason to stay Glenda Tipton marks 15 years with Construction Plus

By Sandra Clark Today (Jan. 21) is Glenda Tipton’s 15th anniversary as director of accounting and purchasing at Construction Plus. She’s worked for bigger companies but never felt the respect and appreciation that she’s earned from owner Sandy Loy.

Worst things first Glenda Tipton has learned a lot from Sandy Loy. Here are two tips: If you’ve got something hard or unpleasant to do, do it first. Then the rest of your day will go much better.

If a competent staff member makes a mistake, acknowledge how she handled getting to a solution. And looks for ways to “have her back” going forward.

“There’s a reason you stay – because it’s a good place to work,” she says.

Glenda had read the books about interviewing and negotiating for a job. When she moved here from Chicago, she knew what she didn’t want.

Her previous jobs had been with a huge hospital and an international software reseller. She was over, done, finished with corporate America.

So she interviewed with Sandy Loy at Construction Plus, expecting a builder to be rough and gruff. Instead she found a visionary who combines attention to detail with hard work to make his clients lifelong friends. During the interview, Sandy asked Glenda for a 3-year commitment and said he would give her the same. It costs money to train someone new.

And then he phoned her on his way out of town to offer the job. “There was no time to ‘think it over’ or negotiate.

There was no contract, and he wanted me to start on Monday. I said yes.”

Over time, Glenda has taken on more responsibility. Sometimes she can anticipate what fi le or manual Sandy needs even before he asks for it.

“My job is more than a checklist of tasks,” she says.

“I handle the day-in, day-out stuff so Sandy is free to take care of clients and grow the business.”

Tasks abound “My last job was for a company with 150 employees at our location and offices in several cities and abroad. The corporate culture was of intimidation and stress. I really like the atmosphere of a smaller company where you get to know the boss and the clients.

“I understand Sandy’s vision, and construction is surprisingly fun. Each project is unique, and we all get to know each client. After each job is finished, I’ll drive by and see it.

“For example, we built the Icearium Cool Sports in Farragut. Every time I see it on TV I think, ‘Wow! That’s so cool. We built that.’”

Glenda says a project start-up is hectic as subcontractors are hired and contracts drafted. “We might have 20 subs on a project, and on the big jobs we might get bids from all over the country.”

Things are calmer during construction, and then speed up again near completion when Glenda assembles large binders with manuals for everything in the building.

“Even the faucets have paperwork,” she says. The binders are handed over to the owner upon completion of a job. Each contains information about the fire and security system and HVAC, etc.

“This is Sandy’s lifework and he takes a lot pride in each job.

That feeling trickles down to me and the subcontractors. Our highest praise is a call-back or referral from a happy client.”

25th anniversary Construction Plus Inc. is celebrating its 25th year in 2013.

During the next few months, we’ll talk about former clients and projects over the company’s history.

strip it down to the frame inside and out. It’s great to turn something old into something useful, new and modern.”

The company got a callback from a neighbor in the business park. Seems the owner is renting to a new tenant and needs several upgrades. It’s a smaller project, but will draw everyone’s full attention.

“Before I started here, I would have thought construction was boring or bland. A lot is the same, Construction Plus is currently but there’s always something that working for Cherokee Health makes it unique. On one project, Systems on projects in Morris- we found a sinkhole. That was a town and 5th Avenue in Knox- big surprise for everybody since ville. The local project is a com- we’d had core drillings. Sandy inplete renovation which Glenda corporated the sinkhole into the calls a “fun project where we will landscaping.

Projects

“Sandy is an architect as well as a builder. He’s very creative as well as technical. So while he’s always looking for ways to improve a project, he’s also looking for ways to save money for clients.

“Their hopes, dreams and money – they entrust to us. We take that seriously. We want clients to feel that they got value, maybe even more than they paid for. That’s always fun and exciting.”

Fifteen years is half a career for most people, but Glenda Tipton may be an exception. In fact, we may be talking to her 15 years from now as she and Construction Plus continue to build stuff while growing the business.

FARRAGUT SHOPPER-NEWS • JANUARY 21, 2013 • A-11

A friendly face Registered nurse Kelly Tulk is ready for anything when volunteering in the clinics of Farragut Primary and Middle schools, but kids typically just come in to chat.

After spending much of 2012 soliciting community input, Ellie Kittrell and Ashley Klappholz continue their efforts to bring a children’s science museum, MUSE Knoxville, to life. Their plans for the next few months include participation in STEM education events and the completion of an architectural plan for the museum. Photo by Wendy Smith

The MUSE Knoxville Growing a museum from the ground up One West Knoxville mom’s endeavor to provide an indoor play space for her kids may ultimately result in a regional children’s science museum that appeals to children and adults alike.

Wendy Smith

Efforts to establish the MUSE (Museum of Understanding Science and Exploration of the arts) Knoxville began in 2010, and after hundreds of hours of research and community outreach, the vision for the facility continues to evolve.

Ashley Klappholz moved from Clinton, Tenn., to Dallas while she was in high school. When she returned to East Tennessee as a young mom, she missed the numerous museums that catered to kids in Texas. So she, along with a partner, developed Sprout Studio, which opened in Downtown West in 2008.

The 5,000-square-foot facility contained exhibits designed by MindSplash, an Illinois company that specializes in educational play spaces. It was open for over a year, and during an 11-month period, Sprout Studio had 70,000 visitors. But the space was too small, and since the economy had slowed, Klappholz couldn’t get a loan to expand. Sprout Studio closed, and the exhibits

were sold to a Chicago museum.

She took a break for a time, but a girlfriend who wrote grants encouraged her to consider creating a nonprofit museum.

MindSplash creative director Becky Lindsay also encouraged Klappholz, who began visiting other children’s museums with friend and fellow mom Chelly Clayton.

The MUSE Knoxville, along with other science educators, will host parent orientation meetings at the 2013 Science Expo, set for Saturday, Jan. 26, at the L&N STEM Academy.

In 2011, after a pool-side conversation with Klappholz, Ellie Kittrell joined the project. Kittrell’s career as a project manager before she had children made her professionally suited for the role as community outreach director for the MUSE. The volunteer effort also suited her personally.

“We’re both passionate, not just about our children, but about children who are under-served. Not every family has the opportunity to go to a museum or teach a science class,” she says.

In December of 2011, Klappholz and Kittrell, with help from Lindsay, presented their business

plan to several foundations, and received initial funding from the Haslam Foundation, the Clayton Family Foundation and Clayton Homes.

Since then, the women have been talking to parents, educators, business leaders and potential partners about what the museum should look like and what sort of learning will take place there.

The feedback has been surprisingly consistent, says Kittrell. There’s a desire for a facility that serves as a town hall, where parents and educators can learn what’s going on in the community.

Input also recommends open-ended learning experiences and exhibits that emphasize creative thinking and problem solving.

The current concept will be focused on STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Math) learning. Klappholz hopes to take advantage of local expertise by providing a “makerspace” where adults come together to create and test ideas that utilize technology.

The concept is becoming more concrete. Doug McCarty of McCarty Holsaple McCarty Architects and Brandon Pace of Sanders Pace Architecture have donated time to the museum’s architectural design.

The desired location is the Knoxville Convention and Exhibition Center on World’s Fair Park. The design won’t be unveiled until the master plan is presented to the donors in late spring, Kittrell says.

Don’t make a resolution.

Join a revolution!

Most resolutions don’t make it until Valentine’s Day. This year, try something that will last the whole year through…and beyond.

At Koko, we’re on a mission to make you healthy and fit. For the first time, exercise, nutrition and technology come together to provide you a whole new way to get fit that’s customized precisely to your body, your goals and your results.

It’s fast, motivating, and so effective, it’s patented.

This year, the women plan to build community support for the project by participating in STEM education projects. The MUSE Knoxville, along with other science educators, will host parent orientation meetings at the 2013 Science Expo, held on Jan. 26 at the L&N STEM Academy. During the summer, Klappholz and Kittrell plan to offer a series of “art and science in the park” events.

Getting a museum off the ground takes several years, but both say they’re in it for the long haul. They want it, and they’re convinced Knoxville wants it, too.

“I feel like I need to be the one that helps make this happen,” says Klappholz.

“They usually come in for small talk or to talk about something going on at home,” she said.

Tulk finds that this usually helps them feel well enough to go back to class.

Kids can call home at any point, but if they have a temperature of 100 or greater, they have to leave for the day. Tulk volunteers one day a month at each of the two schools.

The clinics operate with a staff of parent volunteers, and even though Tulk is a registered nurse,

you don’t have to be one to work there. Volunteers complete one day of orientation and learn the basics of first aid.

Most symptoms being seen in the schools’ clinics are typical of flu season.

“Everyone has a sore throat right now,” she said.

Technology in the classroom Episcopal School of Knoxville 6th grader Lauren Lorenze uses an iPad to complete her assignment. The school recently launched its FLEx 1:1 technology program, which allows students to bring iPads and laptops to class. In order to participate, students must attend the school’s FLEx Academy which helps teach study and organization skills and online safety awareness. Photo submitted

Costco update: Farragut store exceeds 22,000 members

By Sherri Gardner Howell Farragut Costco has had more than $15 million in sales since opening in November, and that includes selling 14,680 hot dogs.

Fun facts and a serious update on the new addition to the Farragut business community highlighted the program by Costco Warehouse manager Todd Galanti for members of the Rotary Club of Farragut on Jan. 16. Galanti gave an overview of the Costco philosophy, and then got down to specifics on how the first Costco in the Knoxville area is doing in its Farragut home.

Galanti said part of the Costco business strategy is to do preliminary shopping for the customer and offer only the top products in a category. “We have a limited number of SKUs,” said Galanti of how they stock the warehouse. “We will have maybe 4,000 SKUs, while a Publix or Kroger will have 30,000, and a Walmart or Target will have 200,000.”

The business believes in taking care of its customers, employees and stockholders, said Galanti, adding that, “if you take care of the first two, success for the stockholders will follow naturally.”

Since opening on Nov. 9, the Farragut Costco has set Southeastern regional records for membership, said

Galanti, with 22,069 members to date. Sales since Nov. 9 have been $15,208,245.

The popular Costco hot dog has been so successful that the company now has its own production facility, said Galanti. Nationally, the chain sold more than 47 million hot dogs during the last fiscal year.

In Farragut, in-store made pumpkin pies sold since opening number 2,596, reported Galanti, with more than 210,000 rolls of toilet paper and 153,830 units of bottled water sold. The Farragut store has 127 employees

Healing mental pain

Reflections of a hospital chaplain Today, I was greeted by a referral in my mailbox. It told me the attending physician thought a visit by the chaplain would be helpful for the woman who had been admitted to the psychiatric unit. She was experiencing grief over the loss of a child. As I sat with this young woman, she shared with me years of grief that had never been expressed. She began to shed tears of relief and release as she finally mourned the loss of her mother, not to mention the recent loss of her young child.

In our conversation I learned that, somewhere along her life’s journey, the message had been sent that crying and grief were a sign of weakness. Oh, the joy that emerged from this woman to feel the bondage of grief being lifted from her soul. She cried on that day and will cry for many days, weeks and years to come, freeing herself from the shackles of weakness as she gains strength in her expressions of grief.

Word was out: “the chaplain is in the unit.” Soon there was a line outside the door with patients who needed a word with me.

The middleaged man who entered the room and sat across from me was kind and gentle with his words. He was trying to care for family members while he himself was receiving care for his mental condition. The story was heartbreaking. He was a veteran, had a college degree and a good job; but one day his

mental health began to deteriorate, and it did not take long for him to lose his job, house and family. But in all of his loss, his concern continued to be for his brother, who was physically disabled and homeless. The embodiment of Christ was sitting before me – disheveled, stooped in stature, limited in his capabilities, yet troubled about his loved one who was in crisis. When he asked for prayer I returned the question, “What would you like for us to ask God?” He continued to remember his brother. It seems that this man was all his brother had in life and he was not going to let his brother down.

After prayers and tears I saw in this man the kind of compassion that is reflected in the Gospel of John, “A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another, even as I have loved you.”

(John 13.34) Before he departed he said to me, “I don’t know how people get through life without the Lord.” At that very moment, truer words could not be found.

Part of my responsibility includes presentations to groups on spirituality, hope, gratitude and topics that promote wholeness. As patients shuffle into the room, the lights are dimmed and my PowerPoint presentation begins, I realize I am using words that have not been in the patient’s vocabulary as they have shared their sorrows and diagnosis with family and friends. Words such as hope, gratitude, darkness to light, cour-

age and strength. Group time is just that, group discussion; but when I said the following words the room was silent and still: “You are courageous and brave because you are here. You knew something was not right, and you asked for help, a sign of strength.”

Many had never been offered

encouraging words, words that could help them make it through the next day, words that would give them hope.

It is not unusual to be asked the question, “How do you visit people who are sick and in physical or mental pain?” It did not take long for the realization to sink in as I

Frye joins Peninsula Hospital

Dr. Charlotte Frye

Dr. Charlotte Frye has been named manager of inpatient clinical services at Peninsula Hospital. Frye, who holds a doctorate in counseling psychology from Chicago’s Argosy University with a concentration in counselor education and supervision, comes to Peninsula from Citra, Fla., where she served as clinical director of the nonprofit Heart of Florida

Youth Ranch operated by her and her husband, Dr. Tom Frye. She also holds a master’s in professional counseling from Liberty University and a bachelor’s in religious education from Covington Theological Seminary in Fort Oglethorpe, Ga. In her new role, Frye will be responsible for providing clinical leadership in the acute care psychiatric facility as well as overseeing the

provision of clinical services and the implementation of therapeutic programming.

Frye has primary certification in Rational Emotive Behavioral Therapy (REBT), certification as a trainer with Model Approach to Parenting Practices (MAPP) and holds Department of Education certifications in Guidance and Counseling and Exceptional Student Education (ESE).

Peninsula receives TAMHO Program of Excellence Award The Tennessee Association of Mental Health Organizations honored Peninsula, a Division of Parkwest Medical Center, with a TAMHO Program of Excellence Award during the organization’s annual awards ceremony in Murfreesboro in December. The Program of Excellence Award spotlights programs at TAMHO member corporations that have been exceptionally creative, successful or have achieved exceptional outcomes.

The award was given to the behavioral health organization for Peninsula’s

innovative outpatient pharmacy program.

Peninsula became aware that many of the individuals served by the organization were unable to successfully navigate insurance limitations for medications, and some were unable to get to the pharmacy to get their prescriptions filled.

Others did not have a way to pay for their medications. Believing there was a strong correlation between an individual getting prescribed medication and remaining in the community with a good quality of life, in 2009 Peninsula opened an outpatient

pharmacy at its Outpatient Center in Knoxville. With assistance from medical and case management staff, individuals were more likely to obtain their medications. Peninsula reported a 20 percent improvement in customer service scores, based on patients developing trusted relationships with a pharmacy that understood their unique needs. In addition, the pharmacy reduced costs, and hospital readmission rates were reduced by 24 percent.

sat and listened to stories of pain, betrayal and grief, that I could be sitting on the opposite side of the table and those words could be coming from my mouth. All of us have “been there” in some capacity or another. Perhaps we had a support group, friend, therapist or church family to walk with us in our time of despair. Those resources are not available to everyone, and sometimes life becomes so very hard that holding on is all one can do. I see God helping the patients hold on. I see a spark of hope when a goal has been reached, when some of the anger is dispelled, when reconciliation begins to take place.

As an inner faith chaplain I use examples that are inclusive and may be mythical in nature, which opens up a vast resource of materials. One of my favorites: He was the Man of Steel until an accident truly made him Superman. Christopher Reeve played the role of Superman on the big screen, but when he was only 41 years old, his life changed forever.

He was thrown from a horse and in an instant became a quadriplegic. He was wheelchair bound for life but fought for the rights of the handicapped and those with spinal cord injuries through various charities, including the Christopher Reeve Foundation. Christopher Reeve’s words give inspiration to patients who feel crippled by life, “Once you choose hope, anything is possible.”

This was my day that God created, and “it was good.”

The Rev. LuAnne Nickell Prevost is a chaplain at Parkwest Medical Center and Peninsula Hospital, a division of Parkwest.

Did you know Binge drinking is a significant problem among women and girls in the United States, with 1 in 5 female high school students and 1 in 8 young women reporting frequent episodes, say federal health officials.

For women, binge drinking means downing four or more drinks on an occasion. Every month, about 14 million women and girls binge drink at least three times, according to the report from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). And women who binge drink average about six drinks at a time, the January 2013 report said.

“Although binge drinking is even more of a problem among men and boys, binge drinking is an important and unrecognized women’s health issue,” said CDC director Dr. Thomas Frieden during a press conference.

You have a chance to become a scientist, work with the Knoxville Zoo, and have your findings recorded in a national database.

Carol Zinavage

Carol’s Critter Corner Steve McGaffin, assistant curator of The Knoxville Zoo’s Education Department, is calling for volunteers over the age of 13 to help with the zoo’s annual FrogWatch program. Looking for a way to get your kid away from the video games and out into the yard? This is it.

FrogWatch volunteers are asked to monitor a site two times a week at least 30 minutes after dark from February through August.

It’s especially ideal for folks who have a pond or stream in their backyard, or who live near a wetland.

Frogs need water to breed, and when they breed, they call. “And if they’re not calling,” says McGaffin, “we can’t find them.”

These critters are sensitive little guys, and right now they’re having a hard time because of pollution and loss of habitat, among other things. It’s to our advantage to keep them healthy, because they are important indicators of problems that may affect humans. They are, quite literally, small sentinels – monitors of the planet.

Add to all that their ability to control pests, and it’s

American bullfrog hard to think of an animal that’s a better friend to us. With the information FrogWatch USA provides, scientists can identify and address concerns about threats posed to frogs.

McGaffin and his staff will train volunteers to distinguish among 14 types of frog calls. “That’s the hardest part,” he says. “Most of them are fairly easy to hear, but there are one or two that are kind of similar – it takes a little practice.” You and/ or your child will also learn about the natural history of local frogs and how to collect and submit data.

If you have a budding scientist in your house, this is a wonderful opportunity.

McGaffin says the information collected will be compiled by staff at the zoo and sent to the Association of Zoos and Aquariums. It will then be added to a national database to be used by scientists worldwide.

“This is data they can’t get any other way,” says McGaffin. “The work that these volunteers do is extremely important.”

One day of training is all it takes. This year for the first time there are two sessions of training, to be held on Saturday, Feb. 2, and Sunday, Feb. 3, from 10 a.m.

Inside the hand-dug well believed to have been built just after the Civil War.

Barnyard Tales Kathryn Woycik Intrigued by his email, I took a drive to Monroe County, to the town of Madisonville. I met Aaron and his grandfather Charles Frank, a retiree from Alcoa.

The barn was purchased from its original owners by Ranie Frank, Charles Frank’s great-uncle. As to its age, Frank’s granddad thought the barn may have been built before the turn of the last century. Charles said, “It may even be the oldest barn in Monroe

County, I’m not sure.”

The barn was used for tobacco farming during Charles’ childhood. Times were different. Work on the farm made for long, hard days. Moonshine stills, a crooked legal system and bootlegging existed.

“Mom and dad raised us right, to know what work was.

More people should be raised that way,” Charles says.

The barn hasn’t changed much over the years. In 1955, the wooden boards were removed from the roof and metal was added. In addition to age, termites have added to the barn’s deterioration.

Noticing the metal roofing coming off at the pitch of the barn, Charles said, “I need to get up there to fix it. I hate to see it go downhill.”

I also saw a hand-dug 28foot well, which is older than the barn. It has never gone dry. People used to drive their horses and wagons from miles around to get water.

Rainey’s son “Little Charlie” signed his name into a concrete slab when it was added around the well in 1926. The well is believed to have been built just after the Civil War. Years ago, Ranie Frank worked at a store across the street called Short Bark.

Aaron is a student at Pellissippi State. He plans to continue the barn’s legacy after it passes from his grandfather to his father to him. Aaron currently hunts on the property and says he does well with deer and wild turkey.

Dear friend, You’re probably thinking, “I would love to spend less on EVERYTHING in 2013.” The U.S. is the World’s top spender on health care. According to TIME magazine, we spend $2 trillion per year, that’s $7,026 per person. You’d think we'd be getting some bang for our buck, but our leading killer remains the same almost every year since 1900: heart disease, which kills 650,000 of us each year. Tennessee ranks 39th out of 50 states in overall health.

Over time, I get relief and I can use my hands and feet again.

My heart problems disappear, too. Oh, did I mention that this doctor is a chiropractor?

It works so well for me, and I’m so impressed with the other “miracles” I see in his office, that I transferred to

So, what’s the answer? We must learn to fix the cause of the problem. Let me tell you my story, one that I’ll never forget as long as I live.

My name is Dr. Andy Scoles, the guy in the picture.

Sixteen years ago, something happened to me that changed my life forever.

Back then, I had been a student in medical school.

That is, until I developed a very excruciating hand and foot condition as well as heart problems. I still remember the terrible pain. In my case, it came on suddenly. The pain in my hands and feet was so intense that it was unbearable to touch anything or even wear socks. And that’s not all...

The doctors did every test they could think of and couldn’t tell me what was wrong. I was terrified that I may never walk again, let alone play tennis or water-ski. After considering surgery (that was the only option, according to the doctors) I decided against it. After two weeks in the hospital, I was only getting worse. But my insurance ran out, so they put me on powerful painkillers and heart medication and sent me home.

But, there’s more…

My mom convinced me to see her doctor. This new doctor does an exam, takes some films, and then “adjusts” my spine. The adjustment doesn’t hurt, it actually feels good.

Andrew D. Scoles, D.C.

chiropractic school myself.

It’s strange how life is, because now people come to see me with their indigestion, ear infections, IBS, hand and foot pain, headaches, migraines, shoulder/arm pain, backaches, ADD, asthma, allergies, numbness in limbs, athletic injuries, neck pain, and pregnancy just to name a few.

Here’s what some of our patients have to say: “Within a few months, my digestive problems, nausea and stomach pain, and back pain were gone! It has even helped my migraines!” ~ Traci “I have noticed an incredible difference in my allergies and sinus problems. I truly feel better than I have in more than 10 years.” ~ Betty E. “Chiropractic has helped my asthma! I now have no more wheezing and less sneezing. I can also bend, walk, and work without pain! ~ Elizabeth E. “Chiropractic helped me through both my pregnancies.” ~ Tammy A.

ADVERTISEMENT

“My 7-year old son no longer suffers from constipation! We schedule our visits for a specific day of the week so we can go straight home and use the bathroom!” ~ Anonymous Many times a day, patients thank us for helping them with their health problems but we can’t really take the credit.

You should know that we don’t heal anyone of anything.

What I do is perform a specific, scientific, chiropractic adjustment to remove nerve pressure, and the body responds by healing itself from inside – out, the way God intended. We get tremendous results. It’s as simple as that!

There are a lot of skeptics out there, but with health insurance costs rising, medication use escalating and American health declining, the current “healthcare” system isn’t working.

That’s where Space Certified Health comes in.

We use space certified neurological diagnostic testing, as seen in the picture, to specifically, scientifically, and accurately locate your nerve interference. Then we correct the cause of your health problem, we don’t cover it up with a drug or medication, or tell you, “you’ll have to live with it.”

You benefit from an amazing offer. Look, it shouldn’t cost you an arm and a leg to correct your health. You are going to write a check to someone for your health care expenses, so you may as well write one for a lesser amount for chiropractic.

When you bring in this coupon (by Feb. 4, 2013), you will receive our entire new patient exam for $17.

That’s with all chiropractic postural X-rays, space certified neurological testing, report of findings ….the whole ball of wax.

By the way, further care is very affordable, and you’ll be happy

to know that I have affordable family plans. Great care at a great fee.

Our office is both friendly and warm, and we try our best to make you feel at home.

We have a wonderful service at an exceptional savings.

Our office is called SCOLES FAMILY CHIROPRACTIC, and it is located at 7555 Oak Ridge Hwy. in Karns (we are across from Dollar General).

Our phone number is 865531-8025. Call us today for an appointment. We can help you.

Thank you...
