The quarterback position should be the least of Butch Jones’ worries. Did you see that running game April 22 in Neyland Stadium at the Orange and White game? Me neither. It was nonexistent.

people definitely knew that “Halls Has It!” The “it” was a fun-filled evening that brought the community out in the great outdoors to celebrate and enjoy nature’s classroom. Also featured during the evening were the new entrance and the pervious sidewalk, which were built by students in Jeff McMurray’s and Tom Shipwash’s classes.

The Halls Outdoor Classroom gives students a place to learn about the natural environment through multiple disciplines, such as forestry, agriculture and watershed science.

News from Tennova Health & Fitness

Tired of waffling?

By Carol Z. Shane Motivation. Sometimes it’s there, sometimes it’s hovering in the wings, sometimes it’s a complete stranger. Rarely is it consistent.

Especially if you’re struggling with weight and weightrelated health problems. Wellmeaning friends tell you to “keep at it” but when will you see results? Seems like you’ve already been “at it” for weeks – well, except for those few days you didn’t do anything, and then there was the week of your daughter’s wedding when you didn’t have any extra time, and you were down with a cold before that, and …. the list goes on and on.

Tennova Health & Fitness Center personal trainers are ready, willing and able to help you achieve your fitness goals. Shown are Danielle Quintanar, Dave Mabe, Hannah Russell, Jill Davis, new fitness manager Katie DePersio and TC – just TC! If you’re serious about stopping your well-intended but halfhearted efforts, Tennova Health & Fitness Center’s personal trainers are ready, willing and able to help you.

“We have 20 nationally certified personal trainers with a wide range of availability to help any and all reach their fitness goals,” says Katie DePersio, Tennova’s fitness manager. De Persio knows how valuable a personal trainer can be – she is one herself. “Those with a personal trainer on their health team are 30 percent more likely to reach their goals,” she says.

“A personal trainer will teach you proper technique and then hold your feet to the fire until you’re in the shape you want to be.”

Right now is a great time to get started. Through the end of May, prices on sessions with a personal trainer are reduced 20 percent (see box at right).

Why not take the onus off of yourself and invest in a personal trainer right now at a reduced price?

There’s always more going on at Tennova Health & Fitness Center. This summer, you can take advantage of Tennova Strength, an eight-week program of strength training focusing on basic barbell lifts.

Getting stronger makes everything else you do in the gym easier. Really! You’ll gain lean muscle, build endurance and perform cardiovascular work easier. It’s a no-brainer.

Under the guidance of trainers Scott Brannan and Steve Bell, you’ll ■ Learn how to squat, bench and deadlift safely and correctly; ■ Develop community with like-minded lifters who want to be strong; ■Increase main lifts over an eight-week period; ■ Learn accessory movements for hypertrophy – increasing the size of skeletal muscles – that assists lifting; ■ Pa r t icipate in two-day-aweek training sessions and one solo accessory day.

The purpose of the program is, in eight weeks, to make you noticeably stronger than you are today. Whatever your longterm goal is – building muscle, losing fat, performing better – strength training will make it easier.

Sometimes, the answer is simply that you need to get stronger.

Tennova Strength Class Days are Monday/Wednesday: 6.19/6.21, 6.26/6.28 OFF July Fourth Tuesday/Thursday: 7.11/7.13, 7.18/7.20, 7.25/7.27, 8.1/8.3, 8.8/8.10, 8.15/8.17 Space is limited. Call today to reserve your spot for Tennova Strength!

Kettlebells are a great workout tool, but how do you know you’re using them correctly? A Tennova Health & Fitness Center personal trainer can guide you.

Maintaining proper form is essential for effectiveness. You don’t want to waste time and effort, do you?

Physical education teacher Larry Israel was one of the three honored as Brickey-McCloud’s Teacher of the Year. Photo by Ruth White

Israel follows in father’s footsteps Gresham students honored by FC Town Hall

Gresham Middle School students were recently honored by Fountain City Town Hall for good citizenship and academic achievement. Pictured at the event are Kayla Nicola (citizenship), Alex Fordham (academics) and Charley Bible (citizenship). Unable to attend but also honored were Jackson Bowser (citizenship), Bryson Nipper-Shown (academics), Mariah Goosie (citizenship), Aaniyah Johnson (academics),and Andrew Ramirez (citizenship).

Like his father before him, Larry Israel has been teaching good physical education practices to students at Brickey-McCloud.

He’s been doing it for the past 18 years and it just feels like home.

He calls his dad, Ernie Israel, “The Mr. Israel” and knows that the gym shoes he fills every day were big ones. The senior Israel taught for 37 years and also began his teaching career at Brickey. He later moved to Powell Middle to finish his career and to coach basketball. While at PMS, Ernie was able to coach Larry along with other Brickey students. Larry Israel calls his father his biggest influence in his career path.

When asked what he loved about teaching physical education, Larry replied, “Getting to teach anything to a child is an honor, but teaching a child physical education is

truly special. It is impossible to be anything but happy in a gym full of active kids, cooperation, challenges, music, and fun. I just love the nature of P.E. and what it brings out in children.”

Being named as a Teacher of the Year was humbling and a blessing for Israel. The staff and community surrounding BrickeyMcCloud are like family and very special to him. When he isn’t working, he enjoys spending time with his wife and family, especially when they are enjoying the outdoors.

Asked what he might be doing if he wasn’t a teacher, he answered in true Larry Israel form, “Starve.” We’re glad you don’t have to starve because you are a great addition to the world of physical education and that of Brickey-McCloud.

Gibbs High senior Gabe Martin signed to play soccer at CarsonNewman University following graduation.

The Eagles’ center back has been a member of the GHS team for four years and selected CNU because it was close to family and he has friends also attendGabe Martin ing the school. While at Carson-Newman, Gabe plans to study pre-engineering.

While playing for Gibbs, Gabe learned how to balance studies and athletics and to play at a whole new level. He was also the kicker/punter for the Gibbs football team this past season.

Coach Jason French remembers putting Gabe in a scrimmage as a ninthgrader and never pulling him out of a game. “He’s a skilled soccer player and tough defender and I’m so proud of him going on to play in college,” said French.

Attending the signing with Gabe were his parents, Dan and Retta Martin, sister Danielle Martin, friends and teammates.

Central students bring Shakespeare to school Students in Central High School’s theatre department packed a suitcase and took their adaptation of Shakespeare’s “Twelfth Night” on the road. OK, maybe just down the road to visit students at Shannondale and Fountain City elementary schools.

The young actors unpacked the suitcase as needed during scenes of the play that kept the elementaryage students engaged with laughter as the tale unfolded.

Reins starts new career at 50

By Ruth White

Once he finished earning his degree, Reins was hired and placed in a kindergarten classroom. After working with high school students, this wasn’t his original thought or choice, but he knows it’s where he belongs and wouldn’t trade it for anything.

He knew nothing about Fountain City Elementary School, but once he was in place, he felt blessed to be part of the amazing staff and knows that it is exactly where he should be. He was named Teacher of the Year at FCE this year and was truly surprised at Tom Reins was honored as the Teacher of the Year at Fountain City Elementary. Photo by Ruth White being selected for the honor. He’s been there for four years and loves the Halls Neighborhood Park on the school the tight-knit family atmocampus. The event features food, music, sphere.

Halls Elementary will host “Bluegrass bounce houses, games and shopping for the and BBQ” 5-7 p.m. Thursday, May 11, in entire family. Rain date: Monday, May 15.

After a long career in sales, Tom Reins decided to make a career change.

When he was 50 years old, Reins decided to go back to school and become a schoolteacher.

He first got his credentials to become a substitute teacher and worked to become a teaching assistant.

Reins was placed at Central High School in a special education class and decided that he needed “to do this for real” and get his teaching credentials.

Fire destroyed brick, mortar but not faith

By Ruth White Fire destroyed Texas Valley Baptist Church in August 2015. The church was established in 1873, and when the original building burned, it was replaced in 1972 by a brick church. It was this building that fire took and – again – left a congregation hurting.

Losing a church to fire is devastating, but thanks to guidance and prayer, the congregation of Texas Valley Baptist Church has

Knoxville Rotary hosts ‘Jockeys & Juleps’ Saturday

It’s Kentucky Derby Day on Saturday, May 6, in Louisville, Ky., when the thoroughbreds run for the roses at Churchill Downs in the race’s 143rd edition. It’s also Derby Day in Knoxville, as the Rotary Club of Knoxville presents its third annual Jockeys & Tom King Juleps Derby Party on Saturday, 3-7 p.m.

“Jockeys & Juleps” is a Kentucky Derby party fundraiser that benefits the Rotary Foundation of Knoxville, established in 1929 to provide financial assistance to worthy college students. The foundation is a 501(c)3 organization that receives tax-deductible contributions and provides funding for two primary missions of the Rotary Club of Knoxville: college scholarships and special projects.

Last year the Foundation not only awarded $25,000 in scholarships to deserving Knox County school students, but

Pedal for the Red For the first time, USA Cycling National Championships are coming to Knoxville on June 24-25.

Pedal for the Red, benefiting the American Red Cross of East Tennessee, is the only cycling event of the weekend open to amateur riders. It is a unique opportunity for riders of all ages and skills to ride a pro course. For two hours on Saturday, June 24, the 4.8-mile championship Time Trial course will be open exclusively for Pedal for the Red.

also sponsored projects ranging from an after-school reading program at Beaumont Elementary School to refurbishing the Elkmont Amphitheater in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park.

The race is known as the “Two Most Exciting Minutes in Sports” by its approximate duration. Post time for the Derby is around 6:34 p.m.

This is a unique and festive party.

You are urged to come dressed in Derby attire. It is being held at Lighthouse Knoxville, 6800 Baum Drive, which is a country setting in the heart of West Knoxville.

There will be bourbon tastings and a contest for the Derby-clad lady wearing the prettiest hat. There will be a gentleman’s tie contest, a drawing for the winning horse and the prizes are all Derby themed.

“We will be offering our guests Derby themed foods and, of course, yummy mint juleps. This year we will have two thoroughbred horses for pictures and an authentic Derby Day feel. Let’s not forget that our guests will also experience a red carpet arrival!,” said Kim Isenberg, the event chair for the Knoxville Rotary Club.

The family-friendly course starts in the Old City on East Jackson Ave. Riders cruise through downtown and along Neyland Drive, taking as many 4.8-mile laps they wish during the two-hour ride. The streets will be closed off, and full safety and medical support will be provided.

In partnership with USA Cycling and Visit Knoxville, Pedal for the Red is part of an exciting weekend including Pro National Time Trials and Road Championships, along with an Expo in the Old City. Volunteers are needed

throughout the weekend, so there are many opportunities to get involved.

Riders who register for Pedal for the Red are encouraged to create a fundraising goal by visiting ht t ps://w w w.crowd r i se. com/pedal-for-the-red and enlisting friends and family to support their goal.

The Marble Springs State Historic Site is at 1220 West Governor John Sevier Highway. It is the last remaining home of John Sevier. Born in Virginia in 1745, John Sevier made a name for himself as a Revolutionary War Hero during the Battle of Kings Mountain (1780), a key player and governor of the short-lived State of Franklin (1784-1788), and ultimately was elected to serve as the first governor of Tennessee (1796).

Marble Springs was the approximate 350-acre farm where Sevier lived from 1801-1815, the last years of his life. Sevier named his farm Marble Springs because of the Tennessee Rose Marble that was quarried on site and the natural springs that flowed on the property.

The contestants evaluate eight samples of each product type for a total of 48 samples. The samples are pre-judged by officials from the food industry.

Reporter’s notebook: Mangled trees and the return of an old political hand What, oh what to do about the Alice Bell Park Tree Massacre? Weeks after a privately hired landscaping crew whacked major limbs off flowering trees in the park, city officials are having a tough time figuring out how to remedy the damage.

There’s been a lot of correspondence between Alice Bell Spring Hill Neighborhood Association president Ronnie Collins and city officials, but the matter is still unresolved. Collins’ first email was to urban forester Kasey Krouse, who said he’d already investigated the matter and learned that the culprits were landscapers hired by Amigos Restaurant, the park’s next-door neighbor.

“Their intent was to clean up the area and make it look more presentable, but I don’t think their contractors

School video of Bratton walking in the hallway of a school with the custodian was made public, and Knox County Schools took the unusual step of banning a sitting board member (Bratton) from school property.

His sponsorship of a 1993 County Commission resolution urging Congress not to extend civil rights protection to gay people was also a flashpoint. Bratton’s defense is that gays are not a downtrodden minority.

Ultimately, however, Bratton won out 8-6 over Colby Inman, who has never held public office.

The Cornerstone Foundation here in Knoxville, headed by former city director and attorney Laurens Tullock, is closing its doors on Sept. 4 after operating 20 years.

Vols’ running game a step behind Even some 10 days after the Orange and White Game, the University of Tennessee football team’s quarterback situation continues to spark debate.

Should Quinten Dormady be named the starter? He went 10-for10 in the spring game.

Or maybe big-armed Jarrett Guarantano? If he doesn’t play this fall, the threat of him transferring may surface.

Maybe both should be named co-starters? Tough call for Tennessee coach Butch Jones.

In reality, that position should be the least of his worries.

Did you see that running game April 22 in Neyland Stadium? Me neither. It was non-existent.

Sure, expected running back starter John Kelly did not play. But given what his understudies showed before the storms arrived, it’s apparent Tennessee needs a quality backup.

him again in the fall, Kelly will be Kelly. He averaged 6.4 yards per tote last season, rushing for 80 or more yards five times. He’ll need spells, though, this fall. No team can survive in the SEC with just one quality running back.

Tennessee signed three running backs in the Class of 2017: Chandler, Tim Jordan and Trey Coleman.

Chandler is the 4-star, two-time Mr. Football winner from Montgomery Bell Academy who tore through Tennessee high school football as an upperclassman and garnered U.S. Army All-American honors.

Jordan and Coleman are two- and three-star talents, according to Rivals, and not expected to contribute immediately.

I’ve watched Chandler play plenty; he’s capable of pulling this off. In two state title games against a loaded Brentwood Academy team, which was twice replete with high-level Divi-

Prized recruit Ty Chandler can’t report to the backfield fast enough.

I’m not one to look too deeply into spring game production, but it was hard not to notice a lack of playmaking ability out of the backfield – especially on a day when the defense wasn’t at SEC level intensity.

Tennessee ran for 57 yards on 21 carries. Running Back U? More like Running Back Who? Carlin Fils-aime had the long run of the day with nine yards. And just by the time I figured out who Taeler Dowdy was, he limped off the field.

■■ With three seats open on the TVA board now and two more coming open in two weeks, President Donald Trump can reshape the whole board.

However, they will not all be Tennesseans.

East Tennessee is missing any representation at present. State Sen. Ken Yager, 70, of Rockwood has been mentioned as a possible choice along with former Virginia state senator Bill Wampler, 57, who lives in Bristol, Va. However, two more names have emerged. They are Jeff W. Smith, 58, associate director at ORNL in Oak Ridge, and Memphis attorney John Ryder.

Smith is viewed almost as nonpolitical but a highly respected professional. He serves on the Knoxville Airport Authority and lives in West Knox County off Pellissippi Parkway.

As an airport commissioner, he attends regularly, is methodical, has a dry sense of humor and asks questions. He has worked hard for the creation of an airport in the Oak Ridge area as chair of the general aviation committee. If on the TVA board, he might drop off the Airport Authority because of time, but it is not required.

Ryder is a longtime business attorney who served as legal counsel to the Republican National Committee for many years. He also works on redistricting for the GOP in the state legislature and is considered an expert.

■■ Gov. Haslam continued his efforts to assist the election of more GOP senators by hosting a fundraiser last week in Knoxville for Mississippi Sen. Roger Wicker, who faces a primary challenge in 2018.

FAST talk

Stroke commercial reminds man to act quickly Lying on the kitchen floor with coffee grounds strewn all about, Paul Schaab knew he needed to act fast.

Fast because he couldn’t talk.

Fast because his right arm was paralyzed. And fast because his situation reminded him of the FAST (Face, Arm, Speech, Time) stroke awareness campaign he’d seen on television.

“As soon as I couldn’t talk, I knew what was wrong – I keep myself informed,” said Schaab, a 70-year-old Fairfield Glade resident, who four years earlier had the last of five heart stents implanted. “My cardiologist had told me, ‘Everything we are doing for you now is to keep you from having a stroke.’ I have a strong heart – it’s just the ‘plumbing’ that’s not good.”

But he had twice missed the basket on the coffeemaker one morning last July, tossing coffee all over the counter, the sink and the floor. The next thing he knew he was lying on the floor in a pile of coffee and thinking about that stroke commercial.

“The woman is standing there and people are all around her and trying to get her to talk, asking ‘What’s wrong? What’s wrong?’

Her mouth didn’t move, but she kept saying, ‘I’m having a stroke!

I’m having a stroke!’ That message was in my head,” said Schaab. “I knew what was wrong, but how could I tell my wife?”

“It wasn’t really talking – it was all slurred, and she looked at me and said, ‘What’s wrong?’ And I said, ‘There’s something wrong and it could be serious, but let’s get to the hospital and find out.’

I didn’t tell her I was having a stroke because she had to drive, and I didn’t want her to get too nervous.”

At Cumberland Medical Center, a Covenant Health hospital located in Crossville, the emergency department physician quickly recognized the symptoms, conferred After experiencing a stroke last with her summer, Paul Schaab is back to his colleagues active lifestyle, exercising, riding at Fort his bike, and walking three miles, S a n d ers five days a week with his wife.

Regional Medical Fortunately, Schaab was able Center (FSRMC) and administo temporarily regain his speech tered the clot-busting drug tPA and pull himself to his feet long (tissue plasminogen activator) beenough to explain to his wife, fore transporting Schaab who had found him on the floor. to FSRMC by helicopter.

“When we got to Fort Sanders Regional, everything seemed to be coming around,” said Schaab, explaining that his speech had returned and he could move his arm again. “I honestly thought they were thinking about releasing me that afternoon because I felt good.

But around 3 or 4 that afternoon, I couldn’t talk again.”

More CT scans revealed a clot inside Schaab’s brain.

Keith Woodward, MD, a neurointerventional radiologist, inserted a catheter into his patient’s groin and maneuvered it to the clot. As he began retrieving the clot, it broke in two. After several more attempts, he successfully extracted the remaining clot.

“I wanted to go home the next day, but they wouldn’t let me,” said Schaab, who was discharged two days later. Today, he is “feeling fine” and maintaining his active lifestyle.

“I exercise all the time, I ride bikes and do yardwork,” he said, adding that he recently did a 20mile bike ride and walks three miles a day with his wife, five days a week, weather permitting.

He credits Covenant Health’s stroke hospital network with the ability to stay active. His time at Cumberland Medical Center was brief, but he praised the emergency department doctor for recognizing his symptoms and acting

quickly. Likewise, he praises Fort Sanders Regional’s Stroke Center, a facility recognized by the Joint Commission and the American Heart Association/American Stroke Association as a Comprehensive Stroke Center.

“I thought they were great,” he said. “The nurses were really nice.

They did their job and they did it well. And Dr. Woodward, now he’s my kind of guy. All the doctors, all the nurses were enjoyable considering the situation. They were very nice. They did their job well and professionally.

“I’ve had guys tell me that they would’ve probably just laid back down or something,” said Schaab.

“And I tell them, ‘Wait a minute – you don’t understand what you’re doing.’ None of us are young anymore. We can’t afford to be macho and just say, ‘It’ll go away. It’ll pass.’

Dr. Woodward noted that a person’s age and the speed of intervention are key factors for stroke recovery. “Patients who are older or are slower to receive treatment may not regain as much functionality,” he said.

A voice of personal experience, Schaab understands the need for fast treatment of stroke. “You’ve only got so much time,” he said.

“Don’t waste it – do something about it. Even if you’re wrong, you’re doing the right thing.”

Fort Sanders Regional Medical Center – the hub of Covenant Health’s stroke network Covenant Health has the region’s only stroke hospital network for delivering advanced diagnostics and treatment to halt the devastating effects of stroke. At the hub of the network are Fort Sanders Regional Medical Center and the award-winning Patricia Neal Rehabilitation Center, located at the hospital. Fort Sanders is a Stroke Center of Excellence, and the only facility in the region to hold both a Comprehensive Stroke Center Keith Woodward, certification from The Joint MD Commission and two separate stroke accreditations from CARF (the Commission on the Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities).

When a stroke happens, timely treatment is critical. “The clock starts with the onset of symptoms. As time ticks by, treatment options become more limited and patients can lose more and more functionality,” said neurointerventional radiologist Keith Woodward, MD. “Covenant Health’s hub-and-spoke model gives us an edge when it comes to stroke treat-

ment,” said Dr. Woodward. “We work with outlying hospitals to respond quickly and get patients to Fort Sanders Regional.”

Fort Sanders Regional has a team of experts available to treat patients 24 hours a day, seven days a week. The stroke team includes emergency room physicians, neurologists, neurosurgeons, neurointerventional radiologists, nurses and therapists. The team works together to quickly diagnose patients and uses advanced treatment methods available to remove clots, repair broken arteries and restore blood flow to the brain.

“There are new tools and devices available to help remove clots and restore blood flow more easily than even just a few years ago,” Dr. Woodward said. For many patients, results from rapid intervention using new treatments and technology are nothing short of miraculous.

The Comprehensive Stroke Center sees patients from throughout East Tennessee and beyond.

“We treat strokes the way no one else in our region can,” said Fort Sanders Regional President and Chief Administrative Officer Keith Altshuler. “From diagnosis to state-of-the-art treatment, research and rehabilitation, our focus is to minimize the long-term physical impact of stroke.”
