Powell Alumni to honor two leaders

Possum Valley and the Civil War No one is quite sure how Possum Valley acquired its name, but the most plausible explanation seems to be attributed to Gen. Ambrose Burnside’s Union forces that wintered there in 1863. In some of the soldiers’ diaries they noted that, “If it had not been for the possums, we would have starved to death.”

TVA wages war on trees By Betty B B Bean B The row of Leyland Cypress trees behind the homes on Cresthill Drive was planted by the developers of the Summit Medical Group at Deane Hill to screen the neighborhood from the clinic parking lot. As they grew, the trees delivered the additional bonus of muffling the sound of Kingston Pike traffic, a short block away. But last Saturday, the Summit evergreens were scheduled to be cut down and reduced to woodchips because they were more than 15 feet tall and stood within 75 feet of a TVA transmission line, as per the utility’s new transmission line easement maintenance policy. TVA power lines are strung 60 feet off the ground. “This is a good example of what’s going to happen all over town,” said tree advocate Larry Silverstein, who planned to protest TVA’s tree-cutting policy at today’s County Commission meeting. Commissioner R. Larry Smith requested that TVA send a representative to explain why it is cutting down vegetation that will never grow tall enough to endanger the power lines. TVA representatives have told property owners that trees standing more than 15 feet high must be removed because the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) requires it, on peril of $1 million a day fines. “TVA has lied consistently about government regulations,” Silverstein said. “Is there a federal

Shopper writer Anne Hart found a cutting crew in Kensington subdivision off Northshore Drive on Thursday. “The puny little pine trees are nowhere near the power lines. But cutting them down will horribly damage the value of the homes those trees are behind, and really of the entire neighborhood. The topography is so that those little pines have pretty much shielded the neighborhood from the sight of the towers. No more.”

rule that requires a utility to cut down all the trees? No. TVA has just not been honest about this from the get-go, and to me that’s a big thing. They claim they have to do it. The FERC document says no such thing. This is just blatantly false to imply that they must cut them down. Fines up to a million dollars a day? I don’t think TVA has ever been fined once. “No taller than 15 feet within the easement is just not reasonable,” said

Silverstein, who compiled packets of documentation for commission members. “These are 60-foot power lines. And that FERC stuff? Completely misleading. The public has no idea of the amount of destruction to private property and harm to the environment this policy will cause in the near future. “If people want to change this policy, they’re going to have to get involved. I cannot do it by myself.” TVA spokesperson Tra-

vis Brickey cited a multistate power blackout in 2003 as the reason for the more stringent regulations and said Silverstein’s major complaint is with the way the media have reported this story. “We have been very consistent. After the 2003 blackout, FERC said, ‘TVA, you need to submit a vegetation control policy that meets the new requirements and we’re going to hold you to that. … Our decision was the way we’re going to comply

with FERC is to cut instead of trim.” Chris Szluha has lived on Green Hills Road since 1998. A TVA transmission line borders his backyard, and in 2009, the utility notified him that it planned to remove four of his trees.

Running into friends at Aubrey’s Last Tuesday was a profitable day in terms of bumping into folks who didn’t mind being in the newspaper. In fact, one member of the Wallace Memorial group said she had seen “in the paper” that I would be at Aubrey’s and had wondered if I would show.

Wallace Memorial Baptist Church members eat lunch together once a month. At Aubrey’s last week are (clockwise, from left) Marie Wolfe, Dot Bolin, Martha Keith, Pauline O’Dell, Dorothy Johnson, Alice L. Lane, Jean Ayres, Jane Shoemaker and Ruth-Dell Woolard.

Ray Varner and folks from Ray Varner Ford eat at Aubrey’s. Pictured are Bob Colloredo, president of Colloredo & Associates, Dan Varner, Christy Hicks, John Miller, Ray Varner and Rich DeForest, president of Pearl Marketing Technologies.

Linda “Snuff y” Smith

Sandra Clark POWELL HOWL Absolutely! First, I met the manager, Aaron Darnell, who said the restaurant “tries to” serve the meatloaf and mashed potatoes blue plate on Mondays. With renovations underway, Aubrey’s had the meatloaf on Tuesday last week. It was the best I’ve ever eaten. OK. So it was me who called at 5 p.m. seeing if any was left over for supper! Next I spotted my cousin Ray Varner and his merry band of car sellers from Ray Varner Ford in Clinton. They were eating with a marketing guy, Bob Colloredo, founder in 2006 of Colloredo & Associates. According to his website, Bob believes that a business marketing program is an ongoing science. So he looks at traditional approaches (print, broadcast and direct mail) and recent trends (online, buzz and viral tactics).

Wow. First time I’ve been called traditional. Rich DeForest, president of Pearl Marketing Technologies, was there too. Somehow I’m guessing that Ray didn’t buy that lunch. By the way, Ray says another cousin (Travis) will join him and Dan Varner at the car dealership this summer. Travis (“the smart Varner”) just graduated from ETSU. Both Dan and Travis are sons of the late Jack Varner, Ray’s uncle who tutored him in the car business. Ray says car sales are picking up. “The car business is coming back, but used cars are high and it’s hard to get new car inventory.” Other than that, Mrs. Lincoln … The folks from Wallace Memorial were great. I interrupted about 12 conversations to ask if I could photograph them. Finally, my old friend Linda “Snuffy” Smith stopped by my table. Snuffy is multi-talented. She’s a graphic artist, a farmer, a social activist and a stellar server at Aubrey’s. Oh

Comedy Night is coming Powell Playhouse will present Comedy Night at 7:30 p.m. Saturday, April 21, at Jubilee Center, says director Nita Buell Black. Dr. Bruce Marston will serve as master of ceremonies. “We will feature three artists: Phil Campbell, Chris Monday and Joe Rose,” said Black. “Phil and Chris will perform some comedy skits that Phil and his late father, Archie Campbell of “Hee Haw” fame, performed in Pigeon Forge. Chris will also assume the role of ‘Ernest T. Bass’ and bring humor and controlled chaos to the audience. “We are so proud to present a new face to the Playhouse. His name is Joe Rose, and he is an accomplished banjo art-

ist who has been offered a position with Ralph Stanley’s bluegrass band! “Phil and Joe will join ranks to play and sing. The evening promises to be full of fun and entertainment! Tickets may be purchased at the door for $10.” Upcoming: Auditions for the next play of the Powell Playhouse season, “The Savage Dilemma,” will be held at the Powell Library from 5 to 7:45 p.m. Monday, April 23. Black is looking for a young man and young woman in their 20s, and a man and woman aged 30 to 50. Roles include a hippie boy and girl, a police officer and a nurse. The auditions include cold readings from the script.

him more than $800, but he thought that meant his trees were safe. A few weeks ago, he heard from TVA again. The trees had to come down. Crews, accompanied by members of TVA’s internal police force, showed up on his property to start cutting. “They had said if I trimmed the tree they wouldn’t cut it ‘this year,’ ” Szluha said. “But in three years, it barely grew at all. It was an old, full-grown tree. Tell me how that was a hazard.” The subcontractors also clear-cut a wooded area behind his property, hacking down everything, including low-growing sumac, and in the process disturbing swarms of termites and flying ants, which then infested his home. “My backyard was like a war zone,” he said. Brickey took issue with that characterization, saying that TVA crews left Szluha’s property the way they found it (minus the trees). Margot Kline, who lives

farther west and is a member of Scenic Knoxville, challenged TVA right-ofway specialist Michael Nance’s claim that Leyland Cypress trees can grow 100 feet high. She said Nance’s claim is based on growing conditions in South Carolina. “So TVA says Leyland Cyprus grows up to 100 feet tall and UT Extension says they grow 15-25 feet tall. TVA is not giving people good information or enough notice and not really explaining why they are doing this,” Kline said. “I understand if we have power outages it costs everyone money, but I think Larry (Silverstein) has good evidence that this is not the case. There are public spaces that are just going to be decimated. We’re talking dogwoods, crape myrtles, redbuds, crab apples and all these ornamental trees. That does not make sense to me.” Kline said that Catholic High School and the Cedar Bluff Racquet Club have

Mr. D does the Electric Slide At the very top of the list of things I never thought I’d see is Charles Robert Davenport doing the Electric Slide.

Jake Mabe MY TWO CENTS But, see it I did, and I’ve got the pictures to prove it. Those of a certain age will remember Davenport as “Mr. D.” He was a librarian at Brickey and Halls elementary schools and by reputation his velvet voice while reading stories to children was almost as smooth as Garrison Keillor’s. Mr. D has been attending a line dancing class Tuesday afternoons at the Frank Strang Senior Center for about four weeks now. It is taught by Evelyn Yeagle, who’s been line dancing since the 1980s. “It’s fun,” Davenport says, in his trademark laconic style. Yeagle agrees. “You get to meet a lot of people, especially at dance mixers like this.” Yeagle and her husband, Tom, teach a class for beginners at 1:30 p.m. and for everyone at 2. They also teach in Loudon County and have been at the Frank Strang Center for about a year. Last week, Yeagle led the beginners class through the Electric Slide (“Like the Bible is to religion, the Electric Slide is to line dancing,” she says), before walking them through an Irish stomp and a dance

four. If they’re brand new, I ask them to commit to six weeks, but you can be up and dancing your first time. If I can get them on the floor, they’re going to have fun.” The Yeagles are originally from Pennsylvania but came to East Tennessee because of Tom’s job. Evelyn says she has a lot of fun. “Life’s too short if you don’t.” Health benefits are an added bonus. Evelyn has had one student whose blood pressure dropped back to normal and another who was able to wean off of diabetic medicine. One lost 64 pounds. She’s even got students in their 80s and 90s. “It’s not only good exercise physically, but you also have to work your mind. If you’re just walking on a treadmill, you’re usually listening to headphones or watching TV. Here, you’re counting. And you’re (not as likely) to get dementia or Alzheimer’s.” She says the class is growing. Twenty-eight showed up last week. Even the beginners looked like pros to me, especially on the Electric Slide. One woman beamed. “I’ve been trying to learn it for 20-something years!” Evelyn had given the class homework the week before.

NEWS FROM POWELL CHIROPRACTIC

Water: The key to healthy weight loss By Dr. Donald G. Wegener It may come as a surprise to you, but water is an essential part of any successful weight-loss program. In fact, restricting your intake of this lifegiving liquid while you diet can have serious consequences. For Dr. Wegener instance, here’s what can happen. First, by not drinking sufficient amounts of water, you can actually cause your body to retain fluid. This occurs because the less water you drink the more your body feels deprived and the more water it stores. As your body stores water, you become puffy and swollen. The extra weight you think of as fat may not be fat at all but a result of fluid retention. Water, by the way, weighs more than body fat; it also alleviates hunger. Second, restricting your water intake promotes fat deposits. Since your body uses water, as the major component of blood, to transport nutrients and wastes, a lack of it can

cause fats and other toxins that normally are disposed of to remain in your body, including that dimpled fat commonly referred to as cellulite. Dieters and non-dieters alike must establish what I call a “fluid balance,” where the amount of water going into the body approximately equals the amount of water being excreted. You won’t have to consume gallons of water to find this balance. Generally speaking, 10 eight-ounce glasses of water daily are sufficient. Once you have reached this fluid balance or “breakthrough point,” you’ll see the incredible difference water can make in your diet program and health. When your body is in fluid balance, pounds and inches begin to disappear, providing, of course, you are also reducing your caloric intake. Just as water can wash away the dirt from the outside of your body when you bathe, taken internally it washes away toxins and allows your liver to process unwanted fats. Next time: Comfortably increase your water intake

Whether this person will have access to the mayor directly or will have to go through Walsh to Branscom to Bill Lyons or Eddie Mannis and then to the mayor is unclear. However, given Mayor Rogero’s strong, deeply felt commitment to a green city, the new coordinator ought to have direct access and not have their thoughts filtered through three others before they reach the mayor. Knoxville should be adding at least four miles a year of new greenways to our current system. It will not happen unless the greenway coordinator is seen as having the mayor’s personal support.

According to Kathleen Gibi, recreation spokesperson, the renovation will include new restrooms, a new office, new HVAC, computer lab space and a multipurpose room which can be used for varied community events. KCDC is fronting $150,000 of the total cost. All represents good news for Lonsdale. ■ If former Sheriff Tim Hutchinson runs for state representative in the new Knox House district

and wins, it will represent a political comeback as stunning as Richard Nixon winning the White House in 1968 after losing the California governor’s race in 1962. Remember, this is the same person who lost in a landslide to County Mayor Tim Burchett only two years ago. Hutchinson did not even reach 20 percent of the total vote. If two years later he can win a seat in the Legislature he once again is a player in Knox County politics. If he serves two terms (four years), he will immediately qualify for a state legislative pension on top of the enhanced and controversial county pension he now receives. As a state representative, he will be able to block or support local legislation which requires approval of all seven House members.

■ County Commissioner Amy Broyles raised eyebrows last week when she mentioned increasing the County Commission size back to 19 members. Not certain whether she is advocating this or simply throwing it out for discussion. Broyles is a county charter committee member who is very vocal in meetings. Generally she is viewed as opposed to the old way of doing things, so it would be a surprise if she favored returning part of county government to the old commission with increased cost to taxpayers who would have to pay eight more commissioners’ salaries and pensions. The huge 27-member charter committee is operating under the radar screen with little media attention on its work.

Not dead yet Shots fired in Battle of Midway, part 2

I wasn’t in Nashville last week, but I know enough about how things work down there to be able to describe the scenario, and I’d bet my best imitation Louis Vuitton bag that last Monday’s Chattanooga TimesFree Press editorial cartoon got emailed out, printed off, passed around and guffawed about all over the Legislative Plaza. But probably not where Rambo, the meanest hombre on Capitol Hill, could see them doing it. To be fair, Ron Ramsey’s probably no different than anybody else when it comes to being made the butt of somebody else’s joke. Nobody’d be tickled to see himself caricatured standing on top of a pile of Benjamins like he’d just summited Everest, planting a banner that says “Campaign Cash” with a cartoon balloon that says, “There is one mountain I’ll protect.” Nope, the Speaker of the Senate/Lt. Governor of Tennessee could not have been amused. The cartoon, of course, referenced Scenic Vistas Protection, a bill written by Knoxville lawyer Dawn Coppock, who has spent the last five years lobbying the General Assembly to ban mountaintop removal coal mining from Tennessee. She has given ground in the process (the bill now applies only to slopes 2,000 feet and above in altitude, for example), but she’s never given up, even after being dubbed the “Church Lady” and watching her bill killed off in obscure subcommittees year after year. She is one of the founders of LEAF, an environmental organization originally composed of

By Betty Bean Second District County Commissioner Amy Broyles voted no on the Midway Business Park in 2010, in part because of community opposition and in part because she doesn’t support “greenfield” development, which she believes leads to sprawl. Today, she is undecided about The Development Corporation’s proposition to sell KaTom Restaurant Supply 22 acres of land at the Midway Road site and give them a substantial tax break to relocate from Hamblen County. “There are a lot of reasons for me to like this company,” Broyles said at her monthly constituent meeting last week. “I want them in my district, where people could walk to work. This is exactly the kind of business the 2nd District wants. This is a community that would welcome them with open arms.” KaTom was founded by Patricia Bible and her husband, Tommy, who died some years ago, leaving his widow with children to raise and 17 employees to keep working. Today, the business is bursting at the seams and has 62 employees, most of whom will follow the company to Knox County. TDC vice president Todd Napier said KaTom will hire 15 additional employees once the move is complete, and that the work force should number 135 after five years. Napier said the problem with Broyles’ observation is that KaTom, which started in Bible’s garage, isn’t willing to look at other county property. Bible likes the Midway location because of its proximity to Hamblen and Jefferson counties, where she and most of her employees live, its interstate exposure and its location near the larger population center of Knoxville.

Betty Bean members of the Church of the Good Shepherd, which is dedicated to a philosophy called Creation Care, the heart of which is that God frowns on stuff like blowing the tops off mountains. And what the cartoon means is that people across the state are paying attention. The bill that started out as a minor annoyance to Ramsey, who has been the recipient of hundreds of thousands of dollars from the coal industry over the years, has grown into a major aggravation. After LEAF supporters kicked off this year’s session with a highly publicized 40 days of prayer for the mountains, culminating with a grand finale in a Nashville church in January, Ramsey had had enough, and decided to gut Coppock’s bill. Nearly a month ago, the Senate’s Republican majority came up with a version of the Scenic Vistas bill that purports to ban mountaintop removal, but in reality only bans dumping the rubble formerly known as mountains into surrounding valleys. Blowing the tops off is OK, as long as the remains are piled back up into mountainesque rock piles. Ramsey issued a press release declaring the mountains saved. His enthusiasm will be tested April 2, when the decoy bill is scheduled to go to the Senate floor, marking the first time a mountaintop removal ban has gotten to the floor of any state legislative body. The sponsor, Eric Stewart, will likely move to restore the original bill, and regardless of what the majority does, the world will be watching.

Starting over So, Tennessee football is starting over. Spring drills begin. Bright new faces. Exciting time. In a previous beginning, we heard that newness is a problem for coaches, that it takes time to establish recruiting relationships. Some were obviously formed but seven-tenths went away in the mass exodus. In the beginning, players and position coaches had to get to know each other. Today, no Volunteer has the same position coach he had last year. This is different, a world turnover record with the head coach still in place. We can only guess at why and how this happened. It wasn’t money. For the convenience of Lane Kiffin, Tennessee doubled the budget for assistant coaches.

Marvin West

When it was Derek Dooley’s turn to spread the wealth, he hired medium-large names from different places and varied backgrounds. Defensive coordinator Justin Wilcox was the star. Expectations and potential were high. Nobody could have foreseen that almost everybody would so soon be gone. This is Tennessee. Great place to live. Rich tradition. Big ballpark. Enthusiastic fans. How much better does it get?

Bennie Wylie, strength and conditioning coach, started it. He worked out with the team – with his suitcase packed. The Chuck Smith story was strange. This personable former Volunteer was Dooley’s high school buddy. He would coach defensive linemen. That renewed partnership lasted one whole season. Personality conflict? Different view of work hours? Smith and Dooley reached a “mutual decision” to part. Smith conducted a rambling press conference that did not explain anything. No problem. The solution was in-house. Peter Sirmon, former standout with the Tennessee Titans and former Oregon roommate with Wilcox, was a graduate assistant. Lance Thompson became defensive line coach. Sirmon, with name recognition

Eric Russell, tight ends and special teams, departed for Washington State. He later admitted he was seeking job security. Eric thinks the Vols are under pressure to win now. Dooley showed no panic. “Sometimes you hate losing them. Sometimes it’s good because sometimes turnover is a healthy thing. Either way, it’s a great chance to say, ‘Hey, where can we get better through this?’ That’s what we’re going to do.” Additional opportunities followed. At a serious time in recruiting, Wilcox moved to Washington. Sirmon took the same flight. We don’t know if Dooley could have stopped them with raises. Could be Wilcox concluded the SEC is just too tough. Dooley made positive adjustments – offensive coordinator Jim Chaney to QB coach, Darin Hinshaw, bless him, to receivers. Ex-Vol Jay

and personality, became a hot recruiter and very good coach of linebackers. If there ever was staff stability, last season broke it up. The 5-7 record with that messy finale at Kentucky created nervous tension. There were whispers that Dooley discipline was adjustable. Critics, just waiting for proof of problems, said the coach might not make it. Rival recruiters told anybody who would listen. Turnover, Phase II, started with Charlie Baggett, long history of success, 11 years in the NFL. The press release said he retired at 58. A freedom of information peek showed Charlie was paid $425,000 to go away. Harry Hiestand, supposedly a good offensive line coach when hired, got saddled with his fair share of a failed running attack. He was suddenly considering other opportunities. He resurfaced at Notre Dame.

Graham came to coach running backs. There was applause. Dooley went “Alabama” to replace Wilcox. Sal Sunseri brought in former associate Derrick Ansley and probably recommended John Palermo. Charlie Coiner was an easy choice. Available. Lance Thompson? Oh, after two passovers for promotion, he went back to Alabama. Dooley, the faithful few and reinforcements did OK in recruiting. As new assistants were getting acquainted, Terry Joseph, with Dooley at Louisiana Tech, moved laterally to Nebraska. Hmm. What do the migrants know that we don’t? Was the original Dooley formula just trial and error? Is the staff better for changes? This new season could be very exciting. Marvin West invites reader reaction.

Possum Valley traces roots to Civil War MALCOLM’S CORNER | Malcolm Shell

I was talking to a couple of my Farragut High School classmates a few days ago – Lafayette Williams and Earl Hall – and during our conversation we discussed the area where they grew up, just a few miles southwest of Concord Village. Today, that gently rolling pastoral area is the home of the new YMCA and subdivisions with homes in the million dollarplus price range – Montgomery Cove, Mallard Bay, Jefferson Park, Cabot Ridge and numerous others – and commercial development has also started to take hold. But 60 years ago the whole area was known to locals as “Possum Valley” and the westernmost end of Northshore Drive was called “Possum Valley Road.” I wonder how many of the area’s new residents are aware that they live in Possum Valley. No one is quite sure how the area acquired its name, but the most plausible explanation seems to be attributed to Gen. Ambrose Burnside’s Union forces that wintered there in 1863. In some of the soldiers’ diaries they noted that, “If it had not been for the possums, we would have starved to death.” One of the notorious residents of the area was Charley Smith, also known as Lying Charley Smith and Possum Valley Charley Smith. Charley was one of those characters who delighted in amusing his friends with his tall tales. And people were always glad to see him coming

because they knew they were in for a big laugh. Charley also told stories about himself and the Possum Valley area. I remember him saying once that “if a rabbit ran across the road in front of you, you had better slam on the brakes because there would be a man right behind it.” Now, Burnside’s soldiers and Charley’s tales suggest that the area was a very poor place where possums were the main food source and men literally tried to run down rabbits for food. But neither of these depictions is accurate. In fact, the area was selfcontained in that it had its own churches with adjacent cemeteries, a school where several classes were taught in the same room by a single teacher and a country store that was a favorite gathering place. Most of the area’s residents made their living by farming. And like their Scots-Irish ancestors, they were extremely independent people who grew their own vegetables, raised their cattle and poultry to provide meat for their families, and depended on the sale of their cash crops for income. And families were very supportive of each other. Indeed, it was a place where farmers would readily lend their farm machinery and labor to a neighbor who might be temporarily in need. And it was a place where people put in 12-hour workdays six days each week and emphasized the value of such traits as honesty, hard work and virtue in their

parenting. And their early training must have had an influence on them because most of the “possum valley boys” excelled in both sports and academics in high school.

Most Possum Valley residents lived in traditional, two-story, clapboard farmhouses at the end of dirt roads. In fact, all of the roads in Possum Valley were dirt, and alternating periods of drought or rain each presented their own problems. During dry periods, you could see vehicles coming far in the distance by the dust cloud, so not many people were inclined to wash their cars or pickup trucks. Today, the influx of new residents and modern subdivisions has completely changed the area landscape. Single mailboxes and dirt roads leading to farmhouses have been replaced with beautiful subdivision entrances that lead to paved streets with exciting street names. And if you ask one of these newcomers where they live, they will proudly say Mallard Bay, Montgomery Cove or Jefferson Park. But if you can find one of the locals –their numbers are declining rapidly – and ask where they live, they are apt to say, “Oh, down in Possum Valley.”

One wild and Pasta cook-off benefits Family Promise precious life By Theresa Edwards

A mortal, born of woman, few of days and full of trouble, comes up like a flower and withers, flees like a shadow and does not last. (Job 14: 1 NRSV) I don’t know exactly what a prayer is. I do know how to pay attention, how to fall down into the grass, how to kneel down in the grass, how to be idle and blessed, how to stroll through the fields, which is what I have been doing all day. Tell me, what else should I have done? Doesn’t everything die at last, and too soon? Tell me, what is it you plan to do with your one wild and precious life? (“The Summer Day,” from New and Selected Poems, Mary Oliver) The first day I walked into the Refuge, I noticed that snatches of poetry and Scripture had been printed on plain white paper and posted in the windows of the interview rooms. The fragment from Mary Oliver’s poem, “The Summer Day,” quoted above, was posted just across the hall from what would be my office. I didn’t see it that day; it was only later that I stopped to read it. It has haunted me from that day to this, for many reasons. It is still posted in that window and, even now, I stop again to read it. It speaks to me on so many levels. I know “what a prayer is.” But do I know exactly what it is? Probably not. I cannot explain the mysteries of communicating with the Almighty. But I know what it feels like to turn at the end of the day to His arms, like a child going to sleep on her daddy’s lap. I know what it is to whisper, “Oh, help,” when faced with a problem above my pay grade. I know what it is to pray, “Thank you,” when I know that somehow I have managed to make a difference. It has been a long time since I have had (or rather, taken) the time to “fall down in the grass … to be idle and blessed.” When I was a young teenager, I used to sit in my climbing tree and think and dream and read and pretend. Those days are gone, and so is the tree, I noticed recently, to my sorrow. The poet is right: everything dies “at last, and too soon.” It is the last two lines of the poem, however, that caught – and hold – my attention: “Tell me, what is it you plan to do with your one wild and precious life?” If we are gone, and that too soon, how will we spend the time between now and then? How will we invest our life, our energy, our wit, our love? How will I use or spend (or – God willing – give) my one wild and precious life? The longer I have lived with that poem reverberating in my head and heart, the

CROSS CURRENTS more I have come to the following conclusion: that Mary Oliver was not after an answer to her question “… what will you do with your … life?” She was after awareness: an awakening of the soul to the knowledge that life is “wild and precious” and that “everything dies at last, and too soon.” As spring comes again to these hills, spend at least part of your wild and precious life doing whatever it is that will allow you to drink in the moments and savor the wonder of it all.

Sacred Heart Cathedral’s annual pasta cookoff again benefited Family Promise, a nonprofit organization which helps homeless and low-income families achieve sustainable independence. Family Promise has a day place where people can use a computer, telephone, laundry facilities and storage and have an address to apply for various assistance programs such as food stamps. Overnight stays are available at a circuit of churches. A shuttle provides children transportation to and from school and adults to work or back to the day house. Denessee McBayne is a graduate of the Family Promise program and will soon become a board member. She shared her story of unfortunate circumstances transforming her from a corporate person with a 401(k) to losing everything, becoming “residentially challenged.” McBayne was a youth minister in South Carolina and always took people in. Then the tables were turned when she became displaced. It was a challenge. “It took losing everything to gain so much more, so I could share it with other people,” she said. “It’s been a great experience. You don’t lose your identity.

Sara Barrett

Critter Tales In addition to her human teammates, Dunn has another special training partner who gives her endless support and an unconditional shoulder to lean on. Well, he doesn’t really have shoulders. He has four paws. Dunn has been training for the marathon with her German shepherd/Doberman mix, Zombie. She adopted him a couple of years ago from a local rescue group and would encourage anyone looking for a pet to do the same.

Darla Dunn stands with Zombie and the rest of her team for the Covenant Health Knoxville Marathon Biggest Winner Weight Loss Challenge. Pictured are Melody Peters, Amanda Paletz, Dunn, Arielle Arthur, Lee Ann Bowman, Mike Howell, and Edee Vaughan. Photo submitted “Training the last few months with Zombie has so deeply strengthened our bond and makes exercise so much fun,� said Dunn. “I cannot stress the excellence of it to others enough. “I’m not always so comfortable in public, so he gives me something to focus on besides my own head,� said Dunn about her training sessions. Zombie helps her stay motivated while being active himself and improving his own social skills. Dunn says her form suffers occasionally from try-

ing not to step on Zombie, but otherwise he helps keep her pumped up during a practice run. The Covenant Health Knoxville Marathon weekend is Saturday, March 31, and Sunday, April 1. Events will include a one-mile kids run on Saturday and a marathon, half-marathon, fourperson marathon relay and 5k races on Sunday morning. Online registration ends Tuesday, March 27, but onsite registration will also be available. Info: www. knoxvillemarathon.com.

NEWS FROM ATTORNEY REBECCA BELL JENKINS

Attorney Rebecca Bell Jenkins expands law practice to Powell A

bout the only time Rebecca Bell Jenkins has strayed far from her home in Powell, where she was born and raised and where her family put down roots in the 1700’s, was when she went off to the University of Georgia to graduate with high honors and to go on to get a law degree. Rebecca has been licensed to practice law since 1995. The daughter of the late Carolyn Bell and of Alfred Bell, who served on the old Knox County Court, taught at Powell High School and then worked as a supervisor in the school system until his retirement in 2005. She started her career in the Knox County Attorney General’s office, where she prosecuted DUI cases. She went into private practice in 2000 with offices at Franklin Square in West Knoxville, where she will continue to practice. But she has now returned to her roots with her law practice, opening a second office

at 534 West Emory Road, in the home once occupied by her grandparents, the late Joyce and Alvin Bell Jr., and next door to what was the home of her great-grandparents, the late Sally and Alvin Bell. That property is now occupied by Realty Concepts. Rebecca says the addition of the Powell office “is the result of so many people I have known all my life saying ‘I wish you had an office closer to where I live.’ My goal is to make things more convenient for those folks.” This second office will make things more convenient for Rebecca’s immediate family, too. They live in the Brickey Community and attend Faith United Methodist Church. Her husband, Jerald, is an employee of Knox County 911 who graduated from Halls High School. His mother, Imogene Jenkins, worked for many years in the cafeteria at Brickey Elementary School. His Dad, the

late Don Jenkins, owned and operated the Waldorf Restaurant on Clinton Highway. In her law practice, Rebecca says, “Our office focuses on legal issues that are most likely to impact people or someone they know on a daily basis such as family law: divorce, adoption, child custody, post-divorce child custody issues, child support (collection or modification), estate planning: wills, power of attorney, and personal injury.” In the area of estate planning, she emphasizes the importance of three critical documents: a will, which she says everyone 18 years or older who has assets and/ or children should have; a Power of Attorney document, which specifies who can make decisions for you on health care and/ or financial matters if you become incapacitated, and a Living Will, which states whether heroic measures should be taken to save your life in certain life-threatening situations and also communicates whether you wish to be an organ donor. She assists her clients with their legal needs in everything from drafting the most simple documents to representing them in courtroom trials. “In a general practice such as this, we do pretty much everything our clients need.” Bell Jenkins is also certified as a Rule 31 listed Family Mediator.

News from Rural/Metro

Careers in emergency services By Rob Webb While the overall job m a r k e t may be tough right now, job prospects are good for those pursuing careers in emergency Webb services. According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, employment is expected to grow in all emergency sectors. Aging baby boomers will contribute to an increased demand for first responders, EMTs and paramedics. Emergency room overcrowding and hospital specialization can also create longer patient transport times making additional emergency service providers necessary. Rural/Metro is one of the largest employers of emergency service profes-

sionals in East Tennessee, employing more than 800 EMTs, paramedics, firefighters, telecommunicators and support personnel. We have a compassionate and committed team which continues to grow to meet the needs of our community. When you are committed to your work, it is exciting to help others get involved. That’s why several Rural/Metro professionals recently spent a day speaking to students about the emergency services field during the Knox County Schools Career Fair held at the Knoxville Expo Center. We were one of nearly 80 local employers on site to give high school students information on career options. Many students were genuinely interested in learning about emergency service. Others enjoyed checking out our latest technology, including our
