BUZZ Max Stiles pitches for the Smokies Kindergartner Max Stiles has already marked an item off his bucket list. The Farragut Primary School student threw out the first pitch at last weekend’s Smokies baseball game against the Chattanooga Lookouts. Max chose the pitch as a prize for being one of the top sellers of the Knox County Schools coupon books. The Smokies’ game also had a superhero theme, and wellknown heroes The Flash and Green Arrow politely waited their turn behind Max to throw out the next pitch.

To market, to market Dixie Lee

to open Saturday

Dixie Lee Farmers Market opens Saturday, May 2. In this 2014 photo, shoppers examine the produce at the Abundant Acres Farm booth.

Jeff Cannon’s interest in gardening has grown since he and wife Ginger launched the Dixie Lee Farmers’ Market in 2007.

By Carolyn Evans As Jeff and Ginger Cannon prepare to open the eighth season of the Dixie Lee Farmers Market on Saturday, May 2, Jeff can’t help but remember the chaos of opening day. “I had four vendors,” Jeff recalled. “The first day was chaos because the word got around Farragut that there was a market, and cars were lined up on Kingston Pike. I had a plant vendor, a cutflower lady, a meat vendor and a farmer with lettuce. We literally sold out of everything in 10 minutes. There were still cars coming through, and we didn’t have anything left.” Word got out to farmers that Farragut was “going to rock,” said Jeff, and by mid-July he had 12-15 vendors. The market runs from 9 a.m. to noon on Saturdays through

Oct. 31, at The Renaissance, 2740 Kingston Pike. The market has space for 25 vendors, and a few spots are still available. All kinds of goodies will be waiting for customers that first week: lettuce, kale, spinach, chard, strawberries, free-range eggs, grass-fed meats, honey, potted plants, fresh cut flowers and herbs, baked goods, pottery, soaps, organic skin care, handbound books, photography and other handmade crafts. Dean Yoder with Abundant Acres Farm in Athens, Tenn., has been bringing his vegetable medley to the market since the beginning. His son Judson will be coming on May 2, and Yoder expects his

strawberries a week later. “Lord willin’ anyhow.” Yoder has good memories of working with his family and over the years has made friends with other vendors and customers. Now 300 visitors come to the market on a Saturday during the peak season, which is the first of June to the end of August. Jeff has some treats in mind for this year. “Throughout the season we’ll do cooking demonstrations and tomato tastings overseen by Restaurant Linderhof,” he said. In addition, a special Saturday is set for May 23, (Memorial Day weekend) complete with children’s activities and a bluegrass band from North Carolina. Jeff welcomes acoustic,

low-key musicians or others who will perform for tips to play on other Saturdays. When Ginger was diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis, she wanted to improve her diet. The Cannons began shopping at farmers markets in Oak Ridge and Market Square. The couple decided to “bring the farmers to us.” Ginger said the Dixie Lee Farmers Market has changed their lives for the better. She sells fresh flowers and blown glass at the market. Jeff has expanded his home garden and says his degree in horticulture and his work as a landscaper for Nature By Design encouraged his To page A-3

Playground design chosen for Mayor Bob Leonard Park By Wendy Smith Last week, the Farragut Board of Mayor and Aldermen approved a bid to replace the outdated playground equipment at Mayor Bob Leonard Park with colorful new structures that will literally create rainbows. Funding for the equipment comes from an $86,000 2014 Local Parks and Recreation grant. Bidding companies could submit two designs with an $83,000 limit, since $3,000 will be used to update lighting and signage at the park.

Fifteen designs were submitted, and each was scored by members of the Parks and Athletics Council and town staff. GameTime submitted the winning design, which includes translucent rainbow-colored panels that are suspended above the playset. “I think it’s going to be thrilling to a lot of kids and their parents,” said Parks and Leisure Services Director Sue Stuhl. The tentative completion date for installation is late summer. Since Vice Mayor Dot LaMarche was absent, the four pres-

ent members of the board had to vote twice to appoint a new member to the Community Health Council. Karen Tindal, a former executive director of Girls on the Karen Tindal Run and a 20-year employee of the YMCA, was appointed over Dale Collins, the former president and CEO of Baptist Health Systems. The board acknowledged that

both candidates were well qualified. The Community Health Council endeavors to improve health in Knoxville, Knox County and Farragut through a community-wide approach. The board also approved an additional $10,000 from the Equipment Replacement Fund toward the purchase of a 2010 or newer model bucket truck. The FY2015 budget included $60,000 toward the purchase, but Public Works director Bud McKelvey said that certain engines in older models were less reliable.

Improvement of roads discussed at CIP workshop By Wendy Smith The Farragut Board of Mayor and Aldermen held a Capital Investment Program (CIP) workshop last week, and roads were the primary topic. At the April 16 Municipal Planning Commission meeting, commissioners voted to have town staff revisit the budget to see if Union Road improvements could be moved up to accommodate proposed development that would back up to the road. The revised budget includes $350,000 for Union Road improvements in

2016, with $450,000 and $2.5 million in upgrades planned for the following two years. Alderman Bob Markli has been vocal during public meetings about his objection to the town’s practice of asking developers to foot the bill for road improvements before projects are approved. Development of the town’s few remaining large parcels has been hampered by the requirement, he has said. During the workshop, he said he’d prefer for road projects to take precedence over non-essential,

non-safety related investments like land acquisition and park expansion. He brought up the option of allowing development to occur without requiring that roads be improved. Mayor Ralph McGill and Town Administrator David Smoak both pointed out that money can be moved around within the budget to accommodate priority changes. Smoak said an upcoming development project on Virtue Road would face the same obstacles as development on Union, but money could be moved within the budget

to make room for road improvement. He said a consultant may be hired to help the town come up with an equitable formula for funding road improvements. After the board meeting that followed the workshop, McGill reprimanded Markli for strong language he’s used publicly regarding the town’s practice of requiring developers to improve roads on which they wish to develop. Markli stood by his wording and offered no apology.

‘Automata’

a thrill for car lovers

By Anne Hart Anyone who has ever fallen truly in love with a certain style or make of automobile has met their match in Knoxville artist and sculptor Clark Stewart. Stewart, however, has taken his love for automobiles far beyond the imagination of most of us in a series of fantasy creations of classic cars he has crafted using everything from an old birch cutting board to scrap aluminum and even velvet. Many of the cars will be on display starting Friday and continuing through the month of May at the District Gallery in Bearden. A retired University of Tennessee professor of drawing and painting, Stewart says his love affair with automobiles began when he purchased a classic MGTC as a teenager. “I took it apart to the last bolt and screw and put it all back together again. ‘No one could believe a 19-yearold could do that.” Ah, but when we learn that the 19-year-old Stewart lived in California’s Newport Beach area, famous for its “muscle cars” of the ’60s and other classic beauties on four wheels, it all begins to make sense, for Stewart’s cars are as marvelous as those. “Automata” is what he calls his figurative collection. It is colorful and amazing in every way. There are fantasy renditions of the Porsche, Jaguar, Bugatti, MG, Alfa Romeo and others. None is true to the original. They are better. More colorful. More interesting. More beautiful in both design and craftsmanship. And they are flawless. For if ever

“Song of the Woods” is the title of this fantasy automobile carved from mahogany.

a perfectionist existed, it is Clark Stewart. An art collector himself, Stewart says the collection he and his wife, Judy, have amassed from around the world “is a collection of souls. Art represents the best part of people’s souls. Whatever concrete thing you make, that’s the best part of you. And nice cars have a soul to them.” Stewart says he made the first car “imagining I was designing in the ’30s, and when I finished, I thought, ‘That was fun,’ and I just kept on, and now I have all of these and a sketchbook full of ideas.” During his 42 years at UT, Stewart created drawings and paintings that were shown in more than 200 exhibitions worldwide and are included in many private and museum collections. If you’re a lover of motorcycles, don’t despair. Stewart is also. His classic Norton will be on display at the show, alongside the bright yellow fantasy Norton he sculpted. The show opened with a reception April 25 and is open to the public. Info: 200-4452 or www.the districtgallery.com

interest in famers markets in general. “My motivation for getting the market started was to have a closer market and to meet farmers and learn their tricks,” he said. He is expanding his strawberry patch and hopes to be selling them at the market in a couple of years. The Cannons said they want to run the market in an easy and fair way and have consulted other markets and ofﬁcials about rules.

Sherri Gardner Howell FARRAGUT FACES The fellowship is always great. The auction – both silent and live – is quite a smorgasbord of choices. Still, it has to be the chamber’s signature addition to a dinner and auction fundraiser: the decorated tabletops. Area businesses and members sponsor tables and trick-them-up any way the little hearts’ desire. The chamber’s theme, which was That’s Entertainment for 2015, may or may not inspire the tabletop themes. Some go with things that represent the business. And others – well, they just create! Guests vote on the featured tabletops to determine the winner. During dinner, the tabletops and items on them are sold to the highest bidders. The 28th annual dinner, silent and live auction did not disappoint. Held April 24 at Rothchild’s Catering & Conference Center, there were 10 tabletops and more than 140 auction items vying for attention. The chamber had East Tennessee Children’s Hospital as the charity partner this year. Funds also go to help the chamber’s continuing education grants, which are given to qualifying member businesses in amounts up to $500.

Members must grow the products they have for sale on their farm or the member’s family farm or on land leased or rented by the member and must agree to allow a representative of the market to inspect the farm.

He is one heck of

a salesman. By my count, he is undefeated in press conferences and interviews. He says a lot – with passion. What the Volunteers did to Iowa, slow or lethargic, generated an overflow of orange optimism. Many think Tennessee will win the SEC East. No previous Butch result substantiates this. His twoyear record is 12-13. He is 5-11 in the SEC. He and his people have twice upset South Carolina. He lost to the worst Florida team in a decade. His team squeaked through at Vanderbilt to earn bowl eligibility. Lest you forget, the Commodores, 17-point underdogs, created far too much tension.

Butch said: “This game summarized our season of adversity and great resiliency.” Butch is articulate. Just as he was building, several young people who were once recruiting prizes pulled up roots and went away. OK, that could have been a left-handed blessing in disguise. Newcomers may be better than the dearly departed. For sure they will be younger and less experienced. So, when will Butch do something really exciting? Coming up usually takes more time than going down. Be reminded that major repairs were necessary. Once a program falls, rivals stomp all over it and do

their best to make bad matters worse. “Hobnail boot on the neck” is a vivid description. Consider the Bill Battle decline of the 1970s. John Majors came home to fi x it. There was no brick by brick back then but what we got was 4-7, 5-5-1, 7-5 and 5-6, generally worse than what Battle was doing. Symbolic restoration appeared in the fifth year, capped by the not so glamorous trip to the drab, cold, windy Garden State Bowl. Some of you missed New Jersey. I remember it well. I ran out of gas on a scenic drive. Erosion under Battle was pleasant compared to the Lane Kiffin-Derek Dooley

slide and crash. Butch inherited a mess. His immediate predecessor didn’t recruit offensive linemen. Butch has done well rebuilding bridges, mending fences and pointing the program in the proper direction. Practice field challenges through a public address system, the noisy stadium DJ and student appreciation day are not the Neyland way but Butch clearly has his own brand of leadership. I continue to withhold judgment on player development and strategy. When Tennessee defeats Alabama, I’ll have more to say. (Marvin West invites reader reaction. His address is westwest6@netzero.com)

Broyles plans campaign school for women Knox County Commissioner Amy Broyles knows − and understands − why few women run for office. They’re busier than ever, and while many are perfectly comfortable raising money for schools or churches, they’re not comfortable asking for money for themselves. Plus, they know that campaigns get ugly, and they don’t want to put their family in that position. But issues that directly affect women, like equal pay, won’t be addressed if women themselves don’t step up, she says. “We have to be the ones sitting in those chairs.” That’s why Broyles is planning a campaign school for women who are interested in running for office or becoming involved in campaigning for a female candidate. A date has yet to be set, but it will be a weekend

Wendy Smith

in August, she says. Classes, on topics like messaging and fundraising, will be taught by female officeholders she’s met through the National Association of Counties and the National Foundation for Women Legislators. They are from different parties, and women from all parties, or none at all, are welcome to participate. She is currently seeking sponsorships so that the school will be free of charge. When women choose to run for office, it’s usually because they’re angry about

something, she says. Broyles ran for County Commission seven years ago because she was angry about term limits. Someone tried to discourage her from running because a man, who could finance his own campaign, was willing to run. She was active in the community, but didn’t know the man. She decided she was a better candidate, in spite of having a 12-weekold baby at the time. While Broyles moved forward without wondering if she was prepared, most women say they don’t know enough to serve in an elected office. “Women always seem to think there’s something more they need to do to run for office.” Men, who are used to seeing men in office, are more likely to see themselves as qualified, she says.

Women also have to endure comments about their appearance that men manage to avoid. While Knox County and the city of Knoxville have had numerous female officeholders over the past couple of decades, the trend has reversed. Broyles isn’t sure why, but she’s heard of the same thing happening in communities across the country. She is the sole woman on Knox County Commission. Brenda Palmer, who serves under the city’s first female

mayor, is the sole woman on City Council. In spite of the challenge of getting there, Broyles has loved her time in office. She feels that she’s been able to affect positive change during her time on commission, even if it didn’t directly result in policy change. She won’t run again in 2016 because she’ll have been in office for eight years. The people who are most disappointed are her three daughters, she says. “They’re really proud of me.”

Total Middle School Students

The map at left shows 2014-19 projected growth for Knox County’s middle school zones. The chart above shows current and projected enrollment. Both are from a study commissioned by Knox County Schools and are available on the KCS website.

Gibbs Middle School is a ‘forever’ issue Gibbs area residents have battled for 20-plus years for a new middle school in the community. During that time a brand-new elementary school was built at Gibbs and Holston Middle School, where Gibbs-area kids are zoned, was remodeled. Gibbs residents showed up across Knox County to lobby for a middle school when Superintendent Jim McIntyre held public meetings. No other community has pushed so hard for so long. It’s safe to say, folks who don’t live in Gibbs are puzzled. What’s the problem? First, our middle schools are in the wrong places.

We’ve got spaces without kids on the east side and kids without spaces on the west side. Second, Gibbs advocates argue that the lack of a middle school holds back the area’s growth. Nobody’s talking about Northeast Knox Utility District’s lack of a sewer system (wastewater is treated by HPUD) stifling growth. Commissioner Dave Wright says the school system’s study was f lawed by inaccurate population figures from the Metropolitan Planning Commission. He says Hardin Valley’s numbers were just a year old, while the North-

east Sector Plan was outof-date by some 12 years. MPC is currently updating that plan. Third, and this is the 800-pound gorilla. Who’s going to pay for a new school at Gibbs? The school board chose not to fund it through its capital plan. It’s doubtful Mayor Tim Burchett will advocate borrowing money for Gibbs and two other new schools also requested. That puts it on Knox County Commission to vote to build and to fund. If that path is taken it must come with a property tax increase to retire the associated debt, which could easily sur-

pass $60 million for three schools. So the school board votes 5-3 for a new Gibbs middle, but has no way to fund it. The school system’s own study indicates there’s no current need. And the mayor is trying to pay down debt, not incur more. Dave Wright has friends on the commission, but likely not enough to pass this proposal, especially without the mayor’s recommendation. Burchett will present his budget on May 11. And the Gibbs community will fight on, win or lose, forever if it takes it to get a middle school.

Hill leaves MPC ahead of new director Dave Hill has resigned from the staff of the Metropolitan Planning Commission (MPC). Likely this was done prior to the new director coming in. Hill, a highpaid city aide not retained by Mayor Rogero, was hired at MPC by former director Mark Donaldson. Cumberland Avenue merchants who overwhelmingly opposed the current construction along Cumberland Avenue at a cost of over $20 million wonder why Mayor Rogero never comments on the troubles being created by the project. She leaves explanation to littleknown subordinates such as Anne Wallace. Bob Whetsel, who is working the project, retires from the city in October. Wallace will likely replace him. Whetsel will be missed. One would think Wallace

Victor Ashe

would urge folks to visit the area during construction to have lunch or dinner and do business with those who have lost business due to this initiative from Rogero. Perhaps Burchett will do it if Rogero continues to stay away. He was the active one a few years ago on Chapman Highway, and Cumberland Avenue is in Knox County. It is surprising that city council has not spoken out on this economic stress for merchants. Even the two council members most likely to question a Rogero project have been quiet on this one.

Nick Della Volpe declined to sign on to the Rogero campaign as a host for her recent fundraiser. Rogero, who quietly opposed Della Volpe in 2013, is this year supporting all four council members seeking their second and final term – in return for them all backing her. All for one and one for all is the motto. ■ All three permanent city council employees are departing the city this fall. They are city recorder Cindy Mitchell, auditor Melissa Peters and secretary Susan Wilson. Mitchell leaves in September, followed by Peters in October and Wilson in November. The three represent over 100 years of service to the city. The three are close friends, and once one left, the others did not want to remain. All had in their years to secure immediate

pension benefits. Mitchell was hired by then-vice mayor Bernice O’Connor as assistant city recorder in 1979, which recommendation was approved by a council vote. She became recorder in 1981. She has served with six mayors and eight vice mayors. She served as president of the Tennessee Association of Municipal Clerks and Recorders and received in 2011 their Distinguished Service Award. She also received the Master Clerk Designation in 2009 from the International Institute of Municipal Clerks and Recorders. ■ Vice Mayor Nick Pavlis is leading the search to replace the three. The position of city recorder has been posted. Serving on the committee to interview applicants are Pavlis, finance director Jim York and civil service director Vickie Hat-

field. Hatfield is best known for having pushed Sam Anderson off the city civil service board due to residency questions. Surprising here is that this is not a council-only committee, as the position being filled is uniquely a councilmanic one. Since the post has not been filled in 35 years, no one is quite sure what the procedure is. It’s unclear if council will vote on it as a body. The named person will achieve civil service status a few months after being hired. This is similar to tenure, making it difficult for future councils to make a change if they wished to do so. ■ The city pension board deadlocked on April 10 on what cost city employees must bear to buy back prior military service. Michael Paseur, who has a good attendance re-

cord, was absent due to his daughter’s illness. The city charter provides that employees with military service can count it toward their pension. How would Paseur have voted? Will the board redo the vote if all members are present? The two Rogero appointees split on this issue, with Rogero casting an anti-veteran vote. ■ City council member Finbarr Saunders will have a fundraiser for his re-election May 6 at the architectural office of fellow council member Duane Grieve on Emory Place. Marshall Stair has sent out a letter seeking donations. All are unopposed at present. Qualifying deadline for mayor, city judge and council is noon June 18.

Breaking ground for a new cathedral Sacred Heart Cathedral rector Father David Boettner didn’t shy away from praying the “don’t rain on our parade” request, and he told the church-full of parishioners, dignitaries and guests of his prayer. His faith was rewarded. The rain began Sunday afternoon just as the groundbreaking ceremony for the new Sacred Heart cathedral had ended. It was a grand and historic day for area Catholics, and dignitaries – both Catholic and not – came to help celebrate the groundbreaking on a new, nearly $30 million cathedral. The Cathedral of the Sacred Heart of Jesus is 59 years old and has been the home parish for the Diocese of Knoxville since 1988, when it served approximately 33,000 parishioners. Today, the number served by the diocese is nearing 70,000 Catholics. The new cathedral, scheduled to open Sep-

tember 2017, will double the seating capacity of the church to 1,000 and increase the worship space from 7,500 to 20,000 square feet. In the lineup of dignitaries turning over shovels of dirt were priests, Cardinals, football coaches, university presidents, mayors and fundraising parishioners. In September, the church’s granite cornerstone will be taken to New York, where Bishop Richard F. Stika will ask Pope Francis, who will be on his visit to the U.S., to bless it. When the new cathedral opens, the church’s current worship area will be renovated into an open space for the Sacred Heart Cathedral School and a meeting space for the parish. Cardinal Justin Rigali came on his 80th birthday to help with the Mass that preceded the groundbreaking ceremony and to join the line of 19

who turned over shovels of dirt. Also included in the lineup were Cardinal Timothy Dolan, archbishop of New York; Cardinal William Levada; Bishop Stika; Bishop David R. Choby of Nashville; Father Boettner; Gov. Bill Haslam and wife Crissy, Knoxville Mayor Madeline Rogero, Knox County Mayor Tim Burchett, University of Tennessee President Joe DiPietro, University of Tennessee head football coach Butch Jones and wife Barb; Chancellor Deacon Sean Smith; Bruce Bosse of Merit Construction; architects James McCrery of McCrery Architects and Kelly Headden of BarberMcMurry Architects; Bruce Hartmann and Dugan McLaughlin. Hartmann; and McLaughlin are chairs of the Sacred Heart Home Campaign. DiPietro and Butch and Barb Jones are honorary co-chairs of the cathedral development campaign.

… Enoch walked with God; then he was no more, because God took him. (Genesis 5: 24 NRSV) Ultimately we’re all just walking each other home. (Ram Dass) Enoch is remembered for two things: he was the father of Methuselah (famous for being the world’s oldest man, at age 969!) and for the fact that he did not die. At least, that is how the Genesis account is understood. It is obviously subject to interpretation. To say that “he was no more, because God took him” could as easily mean that he died. The Bible says “Enoch walked with God.” We usually understand such a statement to mean that a person was obedient to God, that such a person was extraordinarily good. I think the writer of Genesis probably meant that, as well. However, when I was a teenager, I heard an explanation of this passage that caught my imagination, and it has stuck with me. I have no idea what commentator or preacher interpreted this passage, but here it is. Enoch walked with God. Every evening. In the cool of the evening,

Cross Currents

Lynn Pitts

God and Enoch would take a stroll, and talk. However, one evening, they walked and talked longer and later than usual. And God said to Enoch, “Well, we are closer to my house than to yours. Why don’t you just come home with me? So Enoch did just that. He went (as my grandfather’s generation would say) to his “long home.” He went home to be with God. When I was in high school, I had a voice teacher who taught me the song “I’ll Walk with God.” The last phrase of Paul Francis Webster’s text for that lovely tune is “And I’ll never walk alone while I walk with God.” Amen!

Love for the children By Carol Shane Now that spring has ﬁnally arrived, some folks at Cedar Springs Presbyterian Church are gearing up for this summer’s mission trips. For the past three years, they’ve sponsored programs for Chinese families, both here and abroad. Church members interact and share their faith with the families in two ways: a cultural-exchange camp in Knoxville, and a migrantworker family camp involv-

ing CSPC youth and their families in China. Mike and Kelli Stewart oversee the cultural-exchange program, available to middle- and high-schoolers. “There are about 25 students from the Sìchuān province, along with two adult chaperones,” says Mike Stewart. “They are in the U.S. for a total of three weeks, with the ﬁrst two here in East Tennessee.” Room and board are provided by volunteer families

from Cedar Springs, who are each assigned two students as houseguests. Days are mostly spent at the church. Each day begins with a devotional based on a theme such as friendship or forgiveness, along with a relevant Bible verse. Then a guest speaker expands on the theme. Fun activities and games follow. Students also go on various day trips around the region. “We take them to Dollywood,” says Stewart, “and

of course they spend a day in the mountains. Sometimes they get to go on a hayride at Cades Cove.” Teens from Cedar Springs accompany their new friends, get to know them and share their spiritual life with them. When the visitors leave East Tennessee, they head out for more adventures in New York City and Los Angeles. The migrant-worker family camp takes place “just outside of Beijing,” says Stewart. “There are close to 100 families, all migrant workers.” Volunteers from CSPC – usually a few high school and college students,

Broiled Seafood Combination By Mystery Diner Captain America (Chris Evans) and Thor (Chris Hemsworth) wrap up a mission in Eastern Europe.

sequel starts summer season By Betsy Pickle With “Avengers: Age of Ultron” scaring off all the competition at the box office this weekend, the summer games begin with its Thursdaynight debut. The competition for summerScarlett Johansson movie dolplays Black Widow. lars is always fierce, but “Age of Ultron” has an edge. It’s the follow-up to “The Avengers,” the third-highestgrossing movie of all time (after “Avatar” and “Titanic”). And with positive reviews trumpeting its way, it sounds as though this assemblage of Marvel heroes will be drawing crowds for weeks, if not months. After saving the world from intergalactic villainy in 2012’s “The Avengers,” comic-book superheroes Iron Man (Robert Downey Jr.), Captain America (Chris Evans), Thor

(Chris Hemsworth), Hulk (Mark Ruffalo), Black Widow (Scarlett Johansson), Hawkeye (Jeremy Renner) et al. must deal with a human-made threat this time. Ultron (voiced by James Spader) was created as an artificialintelligence program designed to keep peace in the world, but his aspirations transform him into a metal maniac with a thirst for world domination. Other villains making life interesting for the heroes include Quicksilver (Aaron Taylor-Johnson) and Scarlet Witch (Elizabeth Olsen). Also starring are Samuel L. Jackson as Nick Fury, Don Cheadle as War Machine, Paul Bettany as Vision, Anthony Mackie as The Falcon and Hayley Atwell as Peggy Carter. Joss Whedon returns as director and writer.

Hidden away – yet visible from one of Knoxville’s busiest streets – Chesapeake’s restaurant is worth the turns and fumbled directions it often takes first-timers to get there. A part of the Copper Cellar family, Chesapeake’s is a fine-dining seafood restaurant located on Henley Street – according to the post office – but accessible only from Union Avenue in downtown Knoxville. GPS users should use the 600 Union Ave. address. Leave navigation troubles at the door and embrace the nautical Eastern seashore as you enter. Chesapeake’s is an open, warm restaurant that can be cozy or rambunctious, depending on your mood and party. If you order anything other than seafood at Chesapeake’s – well, I just don’t even know what to do with you. Yes, the appetizer onion rings are good – until you compare them to the Spiced Blue Crab Fingers. After a cup of really rich crab bisque, Mys-

tery Diner was tempted to look at the sandwich menu, which boasts a Maryland Crab Cake Sandwich and Fried Fish Sandwich (along with other non-seafood items, but we’ve already had this discussion.). In the end, the Broiled Seafood Combination just was too tempting and also made a good lunch the next day. The Seafood Combination is especially perfect for those of us who aren’t oyster fans. No need for substitutions when the platter has fresh fish, scallops, shrimp and a Maryland crab cake. The entire combination is sprinkled with breadcrumbs, lemon and butter. Yummy. If by some chance you skip the appetizers and the soup, indulge in one of the city’s best desserts: Slower Delaware Pie. The chocolate cookie crust is laced with Kahlua then filled with Mayfield’s coffee ice cream and topped with hot fudge sauce, toasted pecans and Chantilly cream. Makes you wish your GPS could drive the car home.

FRIDAY-SUNDAY By Carol Shane Knoxvillians have long enjoyed home tours, usually in historic neighborhoods such as Fourth and Gill and Old North Knoxville. Old-house buffs can certainly find plenty to look at – our city boasts hundreds of beautiful Victorian and Craftsman dwellings. But how about some new homes in old spaces? Spaces that weren’t originally meant to be residential? Get ready for The City People Home Tour this weekend. Subtitled “Urban Spaces in Downtown Knoxville,” the tour includes 13 homes in 11 buildings. Since its inception in 1985, the event has grown steadily. The first tour was called “Two Hundred Years of Living in the Old City” and included popular continental restaurant Annie’s (now defunct) and an artist gallery. Presented by downtown Knoxville organization City People in partnership with Knox Heritage, this year’s tour includes Gay Street, several connecting side streets and beyond to the south side’s riverfront, as well as the north side’s Old City. Developer David Dewhirst, who

owns several featured properties, says, “The City People Home Tour is the very best tool for downtown Knoxville to illustrate to a curious public the uniqueness and pleasure of urban living.” Included on the tour are: ■ The Commerce Lofts, 122 S. Gay St. Built in the 1890s to support the growing Jackson Avenue warehouse district, it now holds 24 lofts and three commercial spaces. ■ White Lily Flats, 222 N. Central St. The original section of this building dates to 1885. The home of J. Allen Smith & Co., it has come to be known as the White Lily Building, after the company’s most famous product, White Lily Flour. The brand was later bought by the J.M. Smucker Co., and the mill closed in 2008. ■ The Holston, 531 S. Gay St. Known as the Hope Brothers Building, this 1898 structure started out housing a shoe store. In 1908, Hope Brothers Jewelers took up residence, operating as “Dealers in Rare Things and Fine Jewelry.” ■ JFG Flats, 200 W. Jackson Ave.

This five-story structure was built in 1924 and has served as a JFG coffee roasting plant for most of its history. Founded in Morristown in 1882, the JFG company also offered tea, mayonnaise and peanut butter. ■ Gallery Lofts, 402 S. Gay St. Constructed after 1897’s “Million Dollar Fire,” which destroyed this entire block, the building was home to the McNulty Grocery and Dry Goods Co. Its lower floors are now the home of Mast General Store. ■ Emporium Lofts, 112 S. Gay St. Built in 1902 as the new home of Sterchi Brothers Furniture Store, it now holds residential and commercial spaces. One of the unique features of the building is that it retains access to underground Gay Street. The City People Urban Homes Tour takes place from 5:30 to 8 p.m. Friday, May 1, and from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday, May 2. Visitors will park and ride the trolley to each destination. Tickets are $15. Info: 209-1616, citypeople.knox@gmail.com, or citypeoplehometour.org.

Weekend to explore Knoxville’s role in Civil War This weekend’s Blue and Gray Reunion and Freedom Jubilee will offer a host of activities for Civil War buffs as well as those who love Knoxville history. The weekend is a combined effort of the Tennessee Civil War Sesquicentennial Commission and local historical organizations. Registration is required for the state event, titled “Reconstruction in Tennessee,” at tncivilwar150.com. Local offerings include Civil War fort tours, an 1860s baseball game, museum exhibits, a Civil War Exposition and notable performers and speakers like the Fisk Jubilee Singers, actor Ben Vereen and “Gettysburg”/“Gods and Generals” director Ron Maxwell, who will speak at the Blue and Gray Reunion Dinner − the only ticketed event. The events are designed to educate the public on Knoxville’s unique role in the Civil War. Many will highlight the role that local John Hitt, portraying Captain James Rogers McCallum, and Ed African-Americans played White, portraying Colonel John Bell Brownlow, will participate in the war.

tory of African-Americans in Knoxville, will be available at the Freedom Jubilee opening ceremony at 11:30 a.m. Saturday, May 2, at the Beck Cultural Exchange Center, 1927 Dandridge Ave. The pamphlet includes details of the 1st U.S. Colored Heavy Artillery, mustered in Knoxville in February 1864. In 1860, the city had approximately 4,000 residents, and 10 percent were slaves, says Calvin Chappelle, executive director of the Mabry-Hazen House, 1711 Dandridge Ave. The area had divided loyalties, so it was easier to muster black troops here than it would have been in the Deep South. The pamphlet also describes a city-funded project to transcribe thousands of pages of handwritten records of the regiment that are part of the National Archives in Washington, D.C. The first of three volumes of the transcription will be unveiled at the opening ceremony, and Chappelle says the searchable PDF file will provide valuable insight into the lives of the soldiers.

Bearden resident Bud Albers will talk about his grandfather, Andrew Jackson Albers, who chaired Knoxville’s 1890 Civil War reunion, and is buried at Old Gray. Reenactors will portray other noteworthy veterans buried there, like Colonel John Bell Brownlow and James Rogers McCallum, a member of “The Immortal 600,” a

group of Confederate soldiers used as human shields on Morris Island in Charleston harbor. Over 240 veterans, from both sides, are interred at Old Gray, says executive director Alix Dempster. First Presbyterian, 620 State Street, is acknowledging the weekend’s events with a service titled “Remembrance, Reunion and Reconciliation in a Divided Nation.” Music will come from an 1890 hymnal, and Beck Cultural Exchange Center president Renee Kessler and state Rep. Joe Armstrong will participate. The service is intended to recognize the contributions of African American soldiers during the Civil War, says Pastor William Pender.

Combatting cardiovascular disease By Anne Hart With heart disease the No. 1 health problem in the U.S. today, local cardiologist Dr. George Krisle had the full attention of his audience when he disDr. Krisle cussed cardiovascular issues at the Rotary Club of Bearden. Introduced by his friend, Dr. Walter Beahm, as “the dean of Knoxville cardiologists,” Dr. Krisle guided his audience through the various types of cardiovascular disease, their causes and treatments or “ﬁ xes,” if any. The key to a healthier life, Dr. Krisle said, “is to

go to your family physician once a year and to know your numbers,” referring to cholesterol, blood pressure and other vitals. Risk factors for heart disease are genetics, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, smoking, diet and weight. Dr. Krisle reminded his audience that a healthy diet can reduce cardiovascular events, and recommended low carbohydrate and low fat diets, including the Mediterranean Diet but cautioned against using too much of the olive oil in that diet because of its high calorie count. His ﬁnal word on cardiovascular issues: “If you think you’re having a heart attack, go to the emergency room immediately.”

May 6 Knoxville 5FIVE15 Fun Run to Benefit Amputee Athletes Seventeen-yearold DJ Vander wer f loves to run. The Sweetwater teen enjoys competing in 5K road races and continuously cha llenges himself to improve his speed and race times. DJ Vanderwerf com“I’m acpetes in a 5K wearing tive and alhis prosthesis from Amways on the putee Blade Runners. go. I believe you can do anything you want if you put your mind to it,” says Vanderwerf. Running hasn’t always been a smooth road for Vanderwerf. Because of a birth defect, his left foot was amputated when he was just 9 months old. He’s been wearing a prosthesis ever since. Despite his prosthesis, Vanderwerf has excelled at many sports, earning top spots on the Sweetwater High School football, basketball and baseball teams. “I don’t see myself as different because of my prosthesis. I’m just a normal kid who loves to play sports,” says Vanderwerf. The only sport Vanderwerf has struggled to conquer is distance running. The prosthesis leg he has for daily wear and team sports isn’t suitable for comfortable distance running. Two years ago Vanderwerf and his family learned about Amputee Blade Runners (ABR), a non-proﬁt group that provides free running prosthetics for amputee athletes. ABR’s team of prosthetists, physicians and fabricators donate their time to construct and ﬁt athletes with a custom running leg. Because running prosthesis are not considered “medically neces-

sary”, they aren’t normally covered by insurance. Through ABR, Vanderwerf was fitted with a flexible carbon-fiber blade that has allowed him to run safely and comfortably ever since. Now, Vanderwerf hopes to raise awareness about Amputee Blade Runners and assist them in helping other amputees. He’s serving as an Ambassador for ABR’s 5FIVE15 fundraiser. It will be held Wednesday, May 6, at 5:30pm, at Bearden Runner’s Market in Knoxville.

“Donate $5 and run or walk for five minutes or five miles. We hope to raise $15,000 to buy running sports legs for five amputees,” explains Vanderwerf. The May 6th Knoxville event is part of the national 5FIVE15 Campaign. Amputee Blade Runners’ goal is to provide a running prosthesis to at least one athlete in all 50 states by 2016. Vanderwerf says it’s a goal worth striving for. “ABR helps adults and kids like me be active and normal. It’s a great organization and I hope people will come out and help us reach our goal!” To donate or participate in the fun run visit: https://www. commitchange.com/tn/nashville/ amputee-blade-runners/ campaigns/5five15

Relief in rehabilitation

Woman recovers emotionally, physically through pelvic floor therapy It isn’t like 32-year-old Lindsay Riling to slow down. The Digital Marketing and Partnerships manager at Scripps Networks Interactive is an exercise enthusiast. “I love high-intensity workouts,” she said. “My fiancé is a health and fitness coach, so that’s a big part of my life. I didn’t want to lose that.” However, in 2014, Riling felt like she was losing many parts of her life. After a severe urinary tract infection (UTI), she was diagnosed with interstitial cystitis (IC), a chronic bladder condition which causes burning pain and difficulty with regulating urination. Riling’s bladder had become inflamed, and she was retaining urine in dangerous amounts for long periods of time. “Some people have extreme frequency with IC, but I had a less common form of it,” she explained. “I didn’t feel the sense to go.” Riling was started on a series of treatments to relax her bladder and had to see her gynecologist twice a week to give a urine sample via catheter. Despite medications, her symptoms hadn’t disappeared. Because of her bladder issues, Riling was also experiencing lack of sleep and painful intercourse. She was diagnosed with pelvic floor dysfunction (PFD) caused by the trauma of the UTI and mounting stress of her situation. “I was trying to cope with the chronic pain,” Riling said. “It’s difficult because I look fine from the outside, so no one can tell there’s something wrong with me. I was emotionally exhausted.” Following her PFD diagnosis, Riling was referred to Joy Friley, PT, PRPC, Parkwest Therapy Center physical therapist and the only certified Pelvic Floor Therapist in the area. She was scheduled to see Friley once a

week for therapy sessions. “PFD is basically a lack of coordination among the core muscles of the trunk and genital area,” Friley explained. “My job is to educate patients on how to coordinate those muscles to contract and relax during normal activities. While many people may think bladder and bowel problems have nothing to do with physical therapy, that’s not true. Like any muscular problem, physical therapists can provide expertise in improving function and decreasing pain.” At first, Riling resisted attending her therapy appointments consistently. “It’s a lot to go in there and have this happen to you,” she said. “Joy is the most down to earth, loving, understanding person you’ll ever meet. She made me feel so comfortable, but my symptoms weren’t subsiding.” The continued pain led her back to her gynecologist, who recommended exploratory surgery to look for endometriosis, a condition in which tissue normally inside the uterus grows outside of it. The laparoscopy discovered a light case of the disorder and confirmed the IC diagnosis. “After the surgery, I decided I was going to give this my all,” Riling said. “I went back to Joy – who was always so optimistic – and became consistent with going twice a week. When I didn’t see improvements with pain, she assured me things were improving internally.” “People have to understand that what you’re providing them is going to be helpful,” Friley said. “With Lindsay, we spent a lot of time figuring out how her life was affecting her diagnosis. It’s all about being an advocate for someone to get them to the right place. I validated her pain and was able to listen to her and explain to her

Lindsay and her fiancé, Rick

why the pain was continuing.” Eventually, Riling began to see the results. Friley worked with her on stretches to do at home, and she was able to return to her intense exercises. “Joy was genuinely interested in my life and understood how this was impacting me emotionally,” she said. “She helped me ﬁgure out how to live my life while working on recovery. “I didn’t want to have to stop seeing Joy anymore, but I no lon-

How pelvic floor therapy can help As the only certified pelvic floor therapist in Knoxville, Joy Friley, PT, PRPC, assists men and women like Lindsay in resolving the pain and discomfort caused by pelvic floor dysfunction (PFD). Her physical therapy programming includes stretching and strengthening of muscles and retraining them to work together. In certain situations, modalities such as therapeutic ultrasound, muscular electric stimulation and biofeedback are used to help teach patients to better use their muscles. “Men and women dealing with PFD need to understand there are a lot of people dealing with these same problems, not just them,” Friley said. “Be-

fore diving into surgery or going on medicine – which can have negative effects – try conservative ﬁrst round treatment in the form of therapy. You have to be your own advocate.” Patients with PFD often present with one or more of the following symptoms: ■ Urinary/fecal incontinence ■ Pelvic organ prolapse ■ Pelvic, abdominal, genital, lower back and/or buttock pain ■ Pain during intercourse or medical exam Parkwest Therapy Center is accepting referrals for pelvic rehabilitation. Call 865-531-5710 for more information or to make a referral.

ger have PFD,” said Riling, who will always have IC ﬂare-ups in the future. “She taught me how to accept this new reality and accept the fact I’m limited. The sooner I could do that and embrace my limitations, the sooner I could be happy again.” For Riling, the emotional and physical toll of the healing process was lengthy and difﬁcult. However, she advises other women to follow her path. “Don’t give

up and don’t be hard on yourself for your limitations. Be patient with your recovery,” she said. “Joy helped me realize my pain was going to end someday and knew what my goals were, like getting back to my workouts,” Riling said. “For something like PFD therapy, you need someone who understands you and can sympathize and empathize with what you’re going through physically and emotionally.”

Childbirth and pelvic floor issues If you have had a child, your pelvic floor may have become weakened due to bearing extra weight during pregnancy. During birth, your pelvic floor expands to allow your baby to be delivered. This process also causes the nerves in the area to become stretched and cause pain or numbness. While pelvic ﬂoor exercises at home can help strengthen your genital area, continued weakness, pain or lack of control over urine or bowel movements may require assistance from a pelvic ﬂoor therapist. Before

and are experiencing these issues, ask for a referral to Joy Friley, PT, PRPC at the Parkwest Therapy Center. “Just like a knee or shoulder problem, pelvic ﬂoor dysfunction is an injury from which you can recover if you do the right stretches, be aware of your posture, make good nutritional choices and take care of yourself,” Friley said. “When you have pelvic pain, Joy Friley, PT, PRPC it affects everything. It’s not easy for people to talk about you give birth, talk to your because it’s so personal. I doctor about these potential try to help you move better, issues and what to expect. If live better and have a better you have already given birth quality of life.”
