It’s our park now

By Sandra Clark

They had so much fun, they’re going to do it again – 9 a.m. Saturday, July 25, Powell Station Park (behind the splash pad).

Led by the Powell Business and Professional Association, volunteers are clearing underbrush on 12 acres owned by Knox County. It will be maintained by the county’s department of Parks and Recreation.

Expect an announcement next week on a fundraising campaign to build a nine-hole disc golf course on the site, which extends to Beaver Creek and is wooded on both sides.

Last Saturday was awesome.

First came Boy Scout Troop 154, jogging into the park. Scoutmaster is Frank Rose, assisted by Wendell Thomas. The boys pick up trash in the park twice a year already and were happy to see others helping.

Next came the Panther football team, led by head coach Rodney Ellison and assistants Pace Melvin (offensive line) and T.J. Weston (defensive coordinator and line).

The players were eager to help,

and most had an opinion on the layout of the golf course.

“We’re building it for them,” I said.

“No, I’m building it for me,”

said Rose.

Lee Robbins, a stalwart volunteer for Powell, engaged Meishawn Fain to help him pull weeds from the rain garden. It looked wonder-

ful when they were done, sporting just half the number of plants it had before they began.

Beaver Creek Watershed Association disbands

By Shannon Carey It was the summer of 2005 when I came to work for the Shopper-News. Publisher Sandra Clark took one look at me, decided I was some kind of tree-hugging hippie and assigned me to an environmental beat.

Next thing I knew, I was having lunch with Knox County Watershed Coordinator Roy Arthur.

For years, I was there anytime anyone mentioned Beaver Creek or the many streams that flowed into it. I put on waders and hunted for benthic macroinvertebrates, those tiny bugs that indicate water quality. I listened to meetings of the Beaver Creek Stakeholders Advisory Council. I tromped through the woods to see future sites of outdoor classrooms.

And all the while I was getting to know more than just the ins and outs of water quality. I was getting to know the great people who cared enough about the creek to dedicate their time to cleaning it up, folks like Roy Arthur, Barbara Boeing, Dr. Bob Collier, Bob Braid, Lee Robbins, Mike Blankenship, Ruth Anne Hanahan,

stream list.

Don’t forget TDEC naming Beaver Creek the strongest watershed restoration project in the state, or the Environmental Protection Agency naming it the strongest in the Southeast. Don’t forget the beautiful watershed plan written

by Greenwood and designed by Boeing.

“It’s been all over the country,” said Arthur. “I get calls from California.”

I could go on.

Arthur says work is not finished in Beaver Creek Watershed.

Anne Woodle: lousy politician, splendid human

By Betty Bean Not to say that those who run for office can’t be also good people, but the qualities that made Anne Woodle a crappy politician were the very things that made her a fine human – unswerving fealty to what she believed to be right and an unfettered refusal to compromise her principles, even when she knew that the stands she was taking were incompatible with longevity in office.

Like the time she served on the election commission and refused to vote to hire the candidate for administrator favored by Knox County’s most powerful local Democrat (that would be Joe Armstrong) because she believed another candidate was more qualified. Woodle’s candidate won, but she lost her seat come reappointment time.

And she probably never lost a night’s sleep over it.

fend for themselves. Since the county couldn’t afford to pay for bus service for all, it had to take drastic measures.

The political fallout was severe, even though anybody with two grams of gray matter knew the inequity couldn’t continue. The resulting parental responsibility zones meant no more bus service for families living close to schools, and that city kids living some distance away would ride instead of walk. Woodle voted for the changes and became a one-termer.

That one hurt, but probably more for the vicious racist attacks on her teenaged son, Jason, who is bi-racial, than for anything that happened to her.

health & lifestyles

On the road again hip fracture doesn’t stop Knoxville runner It was no fractured fairy tale – the truth hurt all the way to Teresa Williams’ bone.

But when the Knoxville runner broke her right hip during warm-ups last Feb. 3, orthopedic surgeon Dr. Paul Yau of Fort Sanders Regional Medical Center was there to provide a storybook ending.

Just seven weeks after fracturing her hip, Williams, a determined 58-year-old runner with the Knoxville Track Club’s Knox Run group, crossed the 50-yard line at Neyland Stadium to a chorus of cheers, applause, hugs and high- ves.

Never mind that she had actually walked “only” the fourth leg of the Covenant Health Marathon’s four-legged team relay, a distance of 6.5 miles – she did so on a walker decorated with ribbons and balloons and draped with a poster that read: “My hip might be broke BUT NOT my determination or spirit. 7 weeks post surgery.”

“I had to get back. I had to,” said Williams, who had already “run” three 5Ks on her walker in the weeks prior to the Covenant Health relay. “I think there was a reason it happened. I don’t know if the Lord just singled me out that night or for that particular period or what, but as you look at it and watch how people reacted in these races when I was using the walker, they’d say ‘That’s determination!’ or ‘Don’t give up. I like the don’t-giveup attitude.’ I thought, ‘Maybe that’s what it’s about, that people would see that and be inspired.’”

Along the way, photographer Paul E rd captured Williams in the Covenant Health relay on her walker, a shot published along with the race results in the Knoxville News Sentinel. Pleased not only by her own performance but also that of her surgery at Fort Sanders Medical Center, she dropped off a copy of the newspaper at Dr. Yau’s of ce.

“I’m extremely proud of her,” said Dr. Yau. “The fact that I put that much energy into saving someone’s hip and they actually used it for that purpose is extremely rewarding just to know I could make a difference in her life. It’s certainly a routine surgery but it has made an enormous impact on people’s lives. Seeing her in the paper is such a great

Teresa Williams is back to running 5ks, 8ks, and half marathons, after a fall on February 3 that left her with a fractured hip. Dr. Paul Yau of Fort Sanders Regional Medical Center was able to get her back up and moving in time to do the Covenant Health relay seven weeks later. reward for all those years of training.”

“Now, I have to concede, she is a very motivated individual,” Dr. Yau added. “So she needs to be recognized for her hard work, how much effort she put into rehab – we couldn’t do any of that for her – she had to do the exercises herself, get on her feet, work the muscles and do everything she could to recover from surgery.”

Williams, who has been running mostly 5Ks (3.1 miles) and half-marathons (13.1 miles) for the past ve years, was training for an upcoming race when she broke her hip while doing “side-steps,” a warm-up exercise.

“I don’t know if my leg didn’t pick up right or what, but I went down like a domino.”

The fall resulted in a “clean break” of the ball joint. Fortunately, the fractured bones did not move, enabling Dr. Yau to use three cannulated screws to put the bone together

again rather than replacing the hip.

“When Dr. Yau came in and told me what he was going to do, I said, ‘But I’ve got a halfmarathon in April! What am I going to do?!’

Plus, I had a half-marathon set that Saturday and I knew I couldn’t do it. But he said, ‘You can clearly walk that one.’ And I said, ‘OK. When can I run?’ And he said, ‘In May.’ And I said, ‘that’s do-able. OK.’” The day after surgery, Dr. Yau returned to Williams’ room to introduce the team and how they would be working with her. “He said, ‘This is Teresa Williams, a 58-year-old woman who’s a runner, and she wants to get back into it. The team is going to help you get there.’”

That mission began almost immediately with therapy during her hospital stay and continuing with home health care after she was discharged two days after surgery. In no

time at all, Williams was on her walker and using 5Ks to rehabilitate her hip. By May 16, she had tossed the walker aside and was jogging and walking a half-marathon in Viola, Tenn.

Since then she has run several races, and a nephew who is a cross-country coach tells her that he’ll have her quali ed for the Boston Marathon in two years. “That’s what HE says – I say I don’t have 26 miles in me,” she says with a laugh.

Her times aren’t yet what they once were, but for now, she’s just happy to be jog-walking at every opportunity. On her arms, she wears compression sleeves emblazoned, “One day I won’t be able to do this. Today is not that day.”

“I’m usually crying when I cross the nish line of my half-marathons,” she said.

“I’m just so excited to be able to do it because, who knows? I could’ve been crippled or not able to participate at all. Those sleeves take on a whole new meaning every time I put them on because today is not the day I’m going to say, ‘I can’t do it.’ DNF (Did Not Finish) is not acceptable.’ I don’t train to get DNFs!” Yet, Williams is quick to credit Dr. Yau for those nishes.

“Dr. Yau is a great physician. He really is,” said Williams. “I’ve had some other problems – runners usually have runner’s knee – so I told him about my knees giving me trouble and I wanted to make sure they didn’t do that while I was doing a halfmarathon. So he said he would make sure he took care of them. So, if I have to have anything done, he’s the person I will go to.

I recommend him whenever I can.”

“I like a doctor who listens to what I have to say. Who knows more about their body than yourself?” she added. “Dr. Yau understood how important running was to me. When he saw the picture of me on the walker at the Covenant Marathon, I think he saw how important it was to me to get back. I’ve got to. Those are my friends. Running is my connection to everybody.”

Yau: ‘Saving hips always most desirable option’ It was a simple break and a simple solution.

When Teresa Williams fell and fractured her hip, Dr. Paul Yau saw no need for a total hip replacement.

“She didn’t have a lot of arthritis to begin with, she didn’t have a lot of hip pain beforehand,” said Dr. Yau, the orthopedic surgeon who handled Williams’ surgery at Fort Sanders Regional Medical Center. “There are times where we do hip replacements, but she’s a runner – we don’t advocate a lot of folks Dr. Yau run on hip replacements.

So from the get-go, when I talked to her about her activity level and what she wanted to do after recovery, it was pretty much a no-brainer – just x her hip.”

It took only 20 to 30 minutes for Dr. Yau to repair her fractured ball joint, but Dr. Yau says it took “a lot of years and a lot of training” to

learn the surgical skill required to make a bone repair stable enough to withstand the demands of long-distance running.

“I was proud of her and I was impressed that we could get her up and moving that quick.

We have invested a lot of energy and resources building a comprehensive service line for hip fracture care,” said Dr. Yau, who is chair of FSRMC’s orthopedic department. “We’re trying to be less invasive with surgery; we’re trying to be less stressful with anesthesia, doing surgery in such a way that people can put full weight on the hip right away. I guess it’s the culmination of all the efforts we’ve put into this program, and it’s paid off.”

While some cases leave no other option than total hip replacement, the inter-disciplinary team of physicians, nurses, anesthesiologists, radiologists, and others at FSRMC seek to “save hips” whenever possible, particularly when the patients are younger and still active.

“When we see younger, more athletic individuals, we try to save hips,” said Dr. Yau. “Certainly, there are options to replace hips when they break but sometimes you can save them

in younger individuals, particularly those who want to run. Saving the hips actually allows them to do more and allows them to return to a higher level of function. Saving hips is always the most desirable option because as good as implants are, nothing is as good as what God gave you.”

While hip fractures are most common in the elderly, Dr. Yau says there’s evidence that they are increasing among those in the their 50s and early 60s, largely because of osteoporosis due to diet or genetics. “I’ve had some patients in their early 40s with fractures,” he added. “Some people are just more active. These are young active people trying to do different activities and they break their hips.”

At the same time, Dr. Yau says, being physically t and active should help reduce the risk of fracture. “The more people are active with things like weight-bearing exercise, getting out in the sun (a natural source of Vitamin D), having a good diet – all of this is very helpful for preventing hip fractures,” he said.

Also useful in reducing the risk of hip fracture, said Dr. Yau, is to develop one’s proprio-

ception, or ability to sense the body’s position, motion, and equilibrium. “It can help develop the coordination and placement of the foot when you are trying to be active and putting it in good positions as opposed to at-risk positions,” he said. “These sort of activities develop skills between your brain, your nerves, your muscles and your feet – all those things are very helpful when you are trying to prevent hip fractures.”

Yet another useful tool in reducing falls, he said, is the ancient mind-body practice called Tai-Chi because of the slow, intentional motions used. “The motions where you go backwards are particularly helpful because you can’t see where you are going – you rely on sensation through the foot, through the knee and through the hip and putting those in good positions and developing the ne motor skills that control your leg position, the strength, the coordination of that leg as your move, both forward, backward, sideways and all those different directions. All those things have been shown to reduce the incidence of falls and if you don’t fall, it’s kind of hard to break your hip.”

During her off hours, she’d turn down dates and social occasions to take a kid to a movie.

‘Potential’ instead of results Once upon a time, long, long ago, Tennessee called itself Wide Receiver U. The thought lingers. It is now a myth.

Tennessee has an interesting history of catching thrown balls and a current crop of potential standouts blessed with large reputations and many stars from recruiting analysts. Unfortunately, there is more talk than touchdowns. Stats do not measure up to hype.

We don’t really know what the Volunteer rotation of receivers looks like. They

Bob Whetsel hits the road Bob Whetsel will soon retire as the city’s redevelopment director, and he doesn’t mind stepping down before current projects are completed. Before one wraps up, another starts, he explains.

Wendy Smith

“The city is an ongoing project.”

He’s witnessed the beginning − and end − of many projects since becoming redevelopment director in 2008. He had no way of knowing the growth he’d witness when he came to Knoxville in 1974 to teach and coach football at Bearden High School.

(Among his players was Tim Burchett, who still calls him “Coach.”)

Bob and his wife, Melynda, bought a restored

Victorian on Luttrell Street in 1980. They bought other homes in the neighborhood as investment property, and in 1986, he retired from teaching to sell real estate.

He eventually met Victor Ashe, who announced his first mayoral campaign from the Whetsels’ front porch.

In 1993, Whetsel was hired as service director for the city, and he stayed in the position for 15 years until Bill Haslam, during his second term as mayor, asked him to come upstairs to work with him on redevelopment.

Under Haslam, Whetsel’s work was focused on downtown. When Madeline Rogero took the mayoral helm, his focus shifted to the South Waterfront.

He’s seen many changes since he began working with the city. He helped draft the city’s first snow plan and helped plant 1,000 trees during the Ashe administration. The city has grown in square miles and seen the addition of numerous parks

start in air ball. There was little of that foolishness in single-wing times. After Doug Dickey created quarterbacks (Dewey Warren comes to mind), Volunteers started building receiving credibility. Johnny Mills and Richmond Flowers caught several passes. Seivers became a two-time AllAmerican.

As I recall, serious talk about Wide Receiver U began soon after Kippy Brown joined John Majors’ staff in 1982. He helped recruit and refine Miller, McGee, Alvin Harper and Carl Pickens.

The thought matured as six Tennessee receivers became NFL first-round picks.

The Peyton Manning era reinforced the claim and put Kent and Nash in the school record book. Price made it big in the 1998 national championship game.

Robert Meachem, Cedrick Wilson, Donte’ Stallworth, Jermaine Copeland, Jayson Swain, Craig Faulkner, Bret Smith, Cory Fleming – there were several with similar pedigrees.

Justin Hunter and Cordarrelle Patterson fit the form.

Alas and alas, that was then. Now is no more than promising. Maybe. Perhaps.

McIntyre confirms:

Performance pay not an option In a phone interview last week, Superintendent Jim McIntyre confirmed that performance-based pay incentives will not be offered to teachers in the upcoming school year. The only exception is for teachers and administrators in Teacher Advancement Program (TAP) schools.

such as Race to the Top. The bonuses earned in the 201415 school year will be paid in November or December, he said, from a $3 million, one-time grant proposed by Mayor Tim Burchett from the county’s fund balance.

The superintendent hopes to have Russell’s plan fully vetted by teachers and the school board prior to implementation midway in the 2016-17 school year. He has put the whole matter Sandra on the school board’s Aug. 5 Clark agenda for discussion.

were consistently earned in one school year and paid in the next budget year. “In the early years, this was not an issue because (the bonuses) were largely funded by grants. Only recently has it become more of a challenge.”

I believe McIntyre confirmed my analysis piece from last week despite some

of his staff saying the conclusions were incorrect.

To push the envelope, what’s next?

Knox County Schools is broke, with financial obligations outpacing funding.

There’s a chance the district’s reserve fund will dip below the state-required 3 percent this year. (Ah, for the good old days when

Rethinking George Wallace He has considered his name both a curse and a blessing and became acutely aware of this dichotomy when he decided to run for political office nearly five years ago.

Betty Bean “I was on the radio with Ed Brantley and Bob Thomas when Ed, who’s got these bushy eyebrows, leaned in and said my name with a certain amount of disdain: “George Wallace?”

“I said, ‘Well, Ed, not THAT George Wallace.’ ” Nowadays, George C. Wallace (he even shares a middle initial with the late 45th governor of Alabama) doesn’t run into that kind of reaction nearly as often be-

cause he has made a name of his own. The City Council member-at-large, born in 1958, was named after his grandmother, Georgia – “Like the state,” he said.

“Over the years, I’ve had a lot of fun with this name.”

Wallace is the chief operating officer of Coldwell Banker Wallace & Wallace, an 80-year-old real estate firm founded by his father and grandfather. His brother, Jim, is the chief financial officer. The company’s enduring success has made it a pillar of Knoxville’s business community and gave Wallace a head start on his first run for office.

This year, he’s running for re-election unopposed and enjoys broader support than before.

Among his new supporters is former council member Carlene Malone, a longtime neighborhood advocate who has never been a

favorite of the pro-business sector. Malone surprised a lot of people in April when she publicly praised Wallace’s work during a pivotal, called City Council meeting devoted to dissecting the work product of the sign task force, which labored for three years. Wallace cochaired the task force, and Malone said his thoughtful, measured approach won her over. He still sounds amazed by her endorsement.

“She said it publicly. She is very knowledgeable, and I have learned a lot from her – and oh, my gosh, I’ve never had any woman stand up and proclaim her love for me, publicly.”

Wallace, who has a degree in ornamental horticulture and landscape design from UT, said his views on signage regulation evolved during his time on the task force.

“I’m a business owner,

and I have a lot of signs. It was a tough call, but I really care about the way things look. Aesthetics are a big part of economic development, and businesses are attracted to places that Wallace look good.

It’s a complex issue and the more I looked at it, the more I looked at other cities, the more people I talked to, the more I concluded that we can make an improvement.

That feeling just kind of grew. In the end, I think we can make a difference, and over time I think lower signs will improve the appearance of Knoxville.”

The amended sign regulations, which will reduce the height of on-premise signs, were approved 6-3

Mirtes outraises incumbent Campen The recent release of city candidates’ financial disclosures was not particularly striking except for the Mark Campen-Jennifer Mirtes contest, where she raised more than he did by $1,000.

But they raised less than $3,000 between the two of them.

For an incumbent council member (Campen) to have raised only $350 in June shows Campen is either supremely confident of reelection or he does not think his opponent is a threat.

Last time, Campen was unopposed. He simply has never run a contested race.

He is the quietest member of council and a reliable vote for Mayor Rogero.

Victor Ashe

Mirtes has a clear opportunity to win an election that will not exceed 5,000 voters in November if Campen continues to be invisible. Campen is a likable, serious incumbent who has a campaign style that is modest and under the radar.

Campen failed to attend his colleagues’ receptions over the past two months; they would have been a good place to meet people. He has

not held any event to bring his supporters together. His opponent could beat him if she wages an active campaign on real issues.

On the other hand, Campen might wage a more public campaign. Right now he does not have the funds to do a single mailing.

Three other incumbents running are Finbarr Saunders, Marshall Stair and George Wallace. Wallace is unopposed, and Stair’s opponent, Pete Drew, is not considered credible. Saunders’ major opponent will be Paul Bonovich, but it is unclear how serious this Sequoyah Hills resident will become.

ting on $76,718, which she can spend for most anything except personal use.

Often this is used for travel and dinners plus donations to other campaigns. Since she cannot seek a third term, she may hold on to it for some other office she might seek in the future or have a fund available to do political work when she retires.

County Commission was demanding then-Superintendent Allen Morgan spend down his “excessive fund balance” before asking for increased funding.)

The just-signed Memorandum of Understanding gives the county’s finance director, Chris Caldwell, unprecedented authority to dabble in school finance and make recommendations.

None of this is good news for teachers or kids.

It portends further cuts to established school programs, such as the horticulture program at Halls High School, which was eliminated last year. Look for CTE/ vocational programs to be hit hardest with academic electives close behind.

Expect class sizes to grow and increased pressure on experienced (and highest paid) teachers to retire.

These challenges require thoughtful analysis and a

spirit of cooperation and trust that’s been lacking.

Let’s start with Rodney Russell, a good guy who works hard. Let’s reconnect him with kids, perhaps in a classroom. With a director of human resources (Kathy Sims) and several assistants, do we really need a director of human capital strategy?

Businesses and families are doing more with less, while Knox County Schools does less with more. Let’s lose the evaluation rubric, the strategic compensation matrix and the committee that’s reformatting incentive pay. APEX is gone, and it’s not coming back.

Our priority should be teacher pay that’s competitive with surrounding counties. Let’s launch the new year with teachers and kids excited about returning to school, not feeling overwhelming dread.

on first reading and were to go before City Council for a second reading vote this week.

Pension reform is another thorny issue City Council has dealt with during Wallace’s first term, and, again, he said his opinion evolved.

“We wrestled with the idea of pulling out the fire and police (who receive enhanced benefits) departments, but I began to appreciate the value of that for retention of employees, and in the end, we came up with a hybrid plan. I never could quite get comfortable with the notion of making it a 401(k), and I helped author a little bit of the hybrid plan.

It’s not so rich but gives them some kind of benefits program, and we raised the vesting period from five to 10 years. I think it was fair; I hope it was.”

Wallace’s name is beginning to be mentioned among the possible contenders to succeed Mayor Madeline Rogero when she leaves of-

fice in four years. He has clearly developed the art of dodging questions about his aspirations.

“I’m flattered when people say that, but I have a business I’m very entwined with, and it would take some untwining and some unraveling for me to run. I don’t know how that would play out, but I’ll say this: “We have a great city, and we have a lot of people to thank for that. We are standing on the shoulders of those who went before us.”

And what about that signature bow tie?

“At first, the reaction to my wearing it was absolutely comical. I remember Victor Ashe telling me, ‘You’d better lose that bow tie.

You’ll never win with that bow tie.’ I said, ‘I like it that it bothers you.’ ” Wallace and his wife, Stephanie, a retired schoolteacher, live in West Knoxville. Their son, Nick, is a public defender in Montgomery, Ala.

Johnson, 31, who starts at the same age Mitchell did over 34 years ago. He will start out at $52,000 a year, which is $24,000 less than Mitchell was making when she retired.

■ Knoxville lost a committed civic activist with the passing of Anne Woodle last week. She served on the school board and openly advocated her causes without worrying about the political fallout.

■ Dawn Michelle Foster, the new director of redevelopment for the city starting Aug. 31, will see her salary jump $15,000 to $115,000 a year plus a car allowance of $5,830 a year. Anne Wallace, who becomes the new deputy to Foster, will see her salary jump another $10,000 to

$85,000 a year.

When announcing promotions and/or new hires, the Rogero team routinely does not mention the salary. This writer will bring that information to you as city residents are footing the bill. The recent promotion of Chris Howley in city engineering did not include his new salary. One expects some pay hike for a promotion, and the public has a right to know.

■ Debate: The West Knox Republican Club will host a debate in Farragut between Karen Carson and Jason Zachary on Thursday, Aug. 6, prior to the Aug. 12 GOP primary, according to Alexander Waters, club president. Time and location have not been determined.

gang looks forward, not back Byy Betty B Bet etty ty Bean Bean ean Some came to Knox County to be with their sons or daughters. Some moved here a while back to follow their jobs. Some were born here. Another, Fred Pardue, a tail gunner in World War II who flew 30 missions over Germany, was grand marshal of Powell’s 4th of July parade.

But most all the Morning Pointe of Powell residents who came to a get-together with Shopper-News reporters last week have something in common – they’d rather look forward than back.

They are concerned about accessible health care, the nuclear deal with the Iranians and whether to take Confederate flags down from public places.

One On O nee resident, re resi side sid id dent ent nt,, Dr. Dr Harry Dr Harr H arryy Ogden, a retired physician from Fountain City, recalled that when he started practicing medicine, he had one nurse and one office worker, charged $3 for office visits and $10 for house calls and often took produce or chickens for trade.

“I couldn’t do that today.

I’d have to have 25 or 30 people in my office. There’s no way to be a solo practitioner now,” he said.

Ogden volunteered to help at the Interfaith Health Clinic, which treats the working poor for no, or very low fees, and ended up its director. He said he worries about health care because it’s so important.

Nobody liked the deal the U.S. government cut with Iran to reduce that

country’s nuclear assets.

Heads nodded in agreement when Ogden observed that it reminded him of British Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain’s pre-World War II pact with Adolf Hitler that Chamberlain said ensured “peace in our time.”

“Two days later, Adolf Hitler invaded Poland.

That’s how much the treaty meant to Hitler. And I think that’s what it means to Iran,” Ogden said. No one disagreed.

Although they didn’t cut President Obama any slack, nobody was particularly fond of Sens. Lamar Alexander or Bob Corker, either, and Clayton Brewer said he’d term-limit them all, if he could.

There were mixed opinions about the Confederate battle flag controversy, with some saying that flags on public property represent history and should stay where they are, and others, like Ogden, saying that the flags are divisive and should be displayed in museums, not on flagpoles.

“Very prominent museums,” Ogden said. “I believe it is proper that they be brought down.

Muriel Brewer disagreed: “I think we’ve got more serious problems.”

“Nowadays everybody wears their feelings on their sleeves,” Fred Pardue said.

Nobody disagreed on the issue that drew the strongest reaction: changing the name of the Lady Vols.

“The name change is a mistake, and I’d rather watch the Lady Vols. They’re better players. Team players, not in it for themselves,” said Bob Dupes, who worked

“It’s a terrible mistake, what they’ve done. Very disrupting and I am very much opposed,” Ogden said. “The women’s program is very important. My daughter played softball in Fountain City, and she’s very upset.”

To have a home

So God created the great sea monsters and every living creature that moves, of every kind, with which the waters swarm … And God saw that it was good.

(Genesis 1:21 NRSV) And Jesus said… “Foxes have holes, and birds of the air have nests; but the Son of Man has nowhere to lay his head.”

(Luke 9:58 NRSV) I have no idea why someone decided to set up a camera on the ocean floor, but I am grateful they did. You may have seen this footage on the same morning news show I watch. I was fascinated by it, and touched, as well.

A squid (one of God’s less handsome creatures!) picks up a coconut shell he discovered on the sea floor and carries it in one of his tentacles while walking (I promise you – walking!) on two other tentacles to the place he wanted it. He put it down, climbed into it, carefully curled all of his tentacles into the bottom half of the shell, and closed the lid (roof?).

The commentators said this was the first recorded example of an invertebrate (that is, spineless) creature exhibiting intentionality: having an idea and purposely carrying it through to completion.

To me it was touching

A fox wants a den, a squirrel wants a nest, a gopher wants a hole, an eagle wants an aerie. Apparently, a squid wants a shell.

People are certainly no different.

I spent three years working with the homeless. It was a life-changing, soul-changing experience for me. I remember seeing the shining faces of the newly housed; their relief, their sense of belonging, their newfound safety were palpable.

Some of their stories continued as successes; others didn’t.

Such is the nature of humankind, I suppose.

Planting seeds of service Every day, encouraging neighbors. That is what Melissa Davenport and students from Halls Middle School and Christian Academy of Knoxville are doing this summer.

Davenport and a group of students from Faith Promise Church started EDEN gardens as a way to encourage and serve others. “We talk about serving others and our community at church,” she said. “Through some research, we found a way for middle-school students to serve in a safe, practical way.”

Local food pantries usually don’t have a large supply of fresh produce on hand, so Davenport and the students tilled a section in the side yard of her home, built planting boxes and planted tomatoes, cucumbers, bell peppers, watermelon and cantaloupe. Her parents even pitched in by loading a truck with soil from Indiana to fill the beds.

Davenport, a teacher at CAK, has used this as a teaching opportunity by helping the students build rain barrels to collect rain-

water and a compost bin.

“I want the students to be good stewards of the environment and for the project to be as eco-friendly as possible.” She also guided the students through making three different organic pesticides and plans to track the effectiveness of each.

In addition to student help, many families have gathered to work together

on the project. It is Davenport’s hope that the students will be able to see who gets the food through additional volunteer opportunities.

She hopes to start a garden at school and expand the project next year and include potatoes and beans. Anyone interested in Project EDEN can contact Davenport via email at mdavenport@ CAKmail.org.

‘Cheaper than a psychiatrist’

Preserving the past

By Charlie Hamilton You know when you go into newer department stores and they all look about the same? In every town and city today in the U.S. you always see a Walmart, Lowes and many other stores and restaurants.

Well, do see anything different about these buildings?

Do they have any unique characteristics, or any stories that they can tell?

Many older buildings are thought to be useless, non-efficient, and way out of style for any newer development. People tear down older buildings so they can build strip malls and big box stores. The Emporium in downtown Knoxville was built in the 1880s and has

Now, David Dewhirst, and his team are bring another building back to life.

The old Kern’s Bakery is off Chapman Highway right after you cross the Henley Street bridge. The bakery was built in 1931. Dewhirst plans to do some renovations and repurpose its unique architecture.

The building has a lot of personality and is located next to Knoxville’s Urban Wilderness.

You don’t see many older buildings today, and many of them are fading away every day. It is our job to help preserve the past for future.

He was just walking around as usual, and a man in a white coat walked up to him, asked him if he was Mayor Burchett, and said “What are you doing?”

Burchett replied that he was metal detecting, and that this was “a cheaper hobby than going to a physiatrist.”

The person in the coat replied, “You are right; I am a physiatrist, and it is cheaper.”

He also told us about some of his finds, too. He said he was digging one day and hit something hard, and he thought it was just an old paint can. He pulled it up, and it was rounded. Turns out it a breast plate from the Civil War. Burchett also explained that he was in a metal detecting club, and told us about some of the finds they have presented to

the club.

You never know what interesting hobbies people might have.

Fun at the lab

When you think of archeology what comes in mind?

Do you think about a person in Egypt searching for mummies, and artifacts?

That is one part of archeology, but do you know that you might have artifacts right here in your backyard?

We had the honor of taking a tour throughout the University of Tennessee’s Archeological Research Lab. We met Mike Angst, Senior Archeologist and Kandi Hollenbach. They showed us some of their discoveries on the expedition at Morgan

Hill next to UT campus.

The artifacts and evidence of a Confederate basecamp from the Civil War were remarkable. On our tour we

also got to wash some artifacts from a recent dig site in South Carolina. Thank you, UT archeology team, for our visit at the archeology lab.

Archeology takes patience

By Maddie Ogle Would you believe that historical artifacts have been found in Knoxville, Tenn.? Archeologists from UT’s Archeological Research Lab have found cannonballs, bullets and armor, from the battle of Knoxville near Kingston Pike. They also know, from different shades of clay dirt, where or what something might’ve been.

This is a job that takes patience and time, because if you rush and break an artifact, it could be very challenging to find all the pieces. But once they come back to the lab, they scrub and wash each dirt-covered artifact until it’s clean.

Then, it could take a very long time to track down all the missing pieces. And when it’s done, we have discovered a piece of history!

Matching the pieces

By Maggie Williams Last Tuesday, the interns went to UT’s Archeological Research Lab. We got to clean some artifacts from South Carolina, found by Ph.D. candidate Kendy Altizer.

To clean the artifacts, all you need is some water and a toothbrush.

There were all sorts of

objects, such as animal bones, pottery pieces, buttons and even an intact glass bottle. I found two pieces of pottery that fit together!

We all learned a lot about what you can find in the ground. You can volunteer there to clean artifacts. It was very enlightening and enjoyable.

‘All the pancakes!’

Kern’s Bakery inspires interns

By Emma Dale At first glance, the old Kern’s Bakery is a mess.

Erected in 1931, it is 90,000 square feet on 14 acres of land. The bakery can no longer serve its original purpose. But where most developers would see a great place to put a new Walmart, David Dewhirst sees exposed brick, oak floorboards, and a chance to make Knoxville unique.

He calls what he and his colleagues do “historic developing.” His group specializes in buildings built long ago. They know how to find the unique elements underneath all of the terrible 1980s office space put over them.

Although Dewhirst admits that a Walmart will probably make more money than anything he would put here, he hopes that young people today will be more interested in buildings with authenticity and “soul.”

“I mean, when you walk into Applebee’s, you never say, ‘Wow! That’s different!’” Dewhirst said.

And Kern’s certainly is different. The bakery is full of peeling pastel jade walls, almost colonial-looking indoor walls and windows, and a particularly eyecatching set of robin’s-egg-

blue stairs. And that’s just the front office.

The actual factory floor, now devoid of all of the hamburger buns Dewhirst says they used to make here, is sitting in semi-darkness.

It looks like something out of a steampunk picture, full of tangled contraptions criss-crossing the ceiling and floor. Surprisingly, about 80 percent of the original machinery has been cleared out. He pointed out the real brick floor and the behemoth oven that another bakery is coming to dismantle and use for another 100 years.

“Things were built to last back then,” said Dewhirst.

Dewhirst plans to capitalize on the nearby Urban Wilderness, a 1,000-acre forest along downtown’s south waterfront — something he’s fiercely proud of and says that one day all Knoxvillians will be as well.

A stacked-stone, 1800’sstyle tunnel on the Kern’s property leads right into the Urban Wilderness. Around 10-11 privately owned and symbiotic businesses will use different parts of the factory for things ranging from bike rentals to brewing beer; there may even be a climbing wall. Dewhirst estimates that the bakery

will cost around $10 million to renovate.

Still, the most amazing thing about the old bakery isn’t what Dewhirst is probably going to turn it into. It’s the way the imaginations of the young people he believes so strongly in run wild at every twist and turn of an abandoned factory.

For the interns as we toured the bakery, a Quonset hut became a wedding chapel, a truck loading dock beIntern Laken Scott enjoys a ride on a dolly, thanks to David Dewhirst. Photo by R. White came an amphitheater, the office above the main floor was suddenly a branchless, industrial treehouse. Some of us even clamored for the giant, dusty old hamburger bun pans he showed us. He handed them out, to be used for varying purposes in high-schoolers’ and middleschoolers’ homes.

“Now I can make all the pancakes!” one of the interns, Zoe Brookshire-Riley, exclaimed with glee.

All of this excitement, and the impromptu game of soccer started with a ball found on the factory floor, proves right what Dewhirst shared with us at the beginning of the tour, “We hope that young people will want to go to a place that looks real and authentic, and not like the strip mall down the Maddie Murphy, Emma Dale, Betty Mengesha and Zoe Brookshire-Risley ride around the old Kerns Bakery building on a dolly.

FRIDAY

By y Carol Ca aro ol Shane Shan ne One of of Knoxville’s K no lee’ most mo creative, innovative, fulfilling arts organizations is very busy right now, enthralling audiences with its current production.

Through the end of this month, the Knoxville Children’s Theatre presents “Bambi: A Life in the Woods.” By all accounts, it’s a roaring success and a very special experience.

As East Tennessee’s leading producer of stage plays for children, KCT counts “Bambi” as its 69th production. The company is also the area’s leading producer of new works, having produced 27 original plays since 2008.

“KCT’s plays are always based closely on a great work of literature,” says executive director Zack Allen, “and our ‘Bambi’ is a faithful adaptation of Felix Salten’s classic children’s book. The play was written by wellknown stage actor and playwright James DeVita, whose plays have been performed all over the country.”

About the similarities between this play and the 1942 Disney movie, Allen says, “The Disney film contained many of the elements of the book but also took many liberties. But both feature the maturation of a young deer into a stag. He makes many friends, including a friendly rabbit, and faces many dangers, mostly posed by humans. There are funny parts, thrilling parts, sad parts and all the emotions that come from living a ‘life in the woods.’ ” The play features 13 actors age 9 to 16.

Zak Terry, an eighth-grader at Bearden Middle School, plays Bambi. Formerly seen as the White Rabbit in “Alice’s Rumpus in Wonderland,” Zak counts “Bambi” as his sixth KCT appearance.

He is the son of Stacy Stewart and Scott Terry.

Ryan Cross plays the Great Prince. He attends ninth grade at Christian Academy of Knoxville, and this is his seventh performance at KCT.

Ryan is the son of Jennifer and Douglas Cross.

Ani Wederitch plays Faline, Bambi’s friend. She is a sixth-grader at Bearden Middle School. This is her third show at KCT, having most recently been seen in “Harriet the Spy.” Ani is the daughter of Jill Werderitch.

Other KCT veterans in this outstanding ensemble cast are Jake Green, a junior at West High and the son of

Downtown West is opening “Cartel Land,” a big winner in the Sundance Film Festival’s U.S. Documentary competition.

The parents of Maddie Harrill and Emily Barger found a way to honor the memory of their young daughters and provide help and James Harrill support to others through The Butterfly Fund.

James Harrill, father of Maddie, spoke to the Rotary Club of Farragut, about the nonprofit organization that he and his wife, Christina, and Brian and Misty Barger, parents of Emily, created not long after their daughters died.

“Both of these little girls were diagnosed with a rare form of childhood cancer in 2007 and passed away within about three weeks of one another in 2008,” he said.

The fund’s goal is to raise awareness and support for families and children dealing with pediatric cancer.

In early 2007, Harrill heard about the daughter of two high school friends, the Bargers, who had been

diagnosed with cancer, and later that year, the Harrills’ daughter became ill and was diagnosed with the same rare form of cancer, Rhabdomyosarcoma. Emily Barger was about two and a half years older than Maddie Harrill, but the two girls became close friends.

The families leaned on each other for support, and the girls responded to their terminal illness by fully relying on God, he said.

The Butterfly Fund, under the East Tennessee Foundation, hosts three fundraisers a year: a black tie gala, a 5K run and a golf tournament. The nonprofit has raised about $600,000 since its inception, funding programs at Children’s Hospital, where the girls were treated, and similar organizations. All four parents, who work full-time jobs, make no money from it.

“They (Maddie, 5, and Emily, 7) helped make this world a better place,” Harrill said. “We’re just very proud we’re able to maintain their legacy with these efforts. … Both girls loved butterflies.”

It’s official Murphy Springs Farm added to National Register of Historic Places

By Betty Bean Neighbors have long called the mid-19th-century Gothic Revival structure tucked into a picturesque hollow amid pastures and forests at the corner of Washington Pike and Murphy Road the house of seven gables and have wondered what stories those walls would tell if they could talk.

Maybe they’d tell about the time Kevin Murphy’s three-times great-uncle and his two-times great-grandfather visited Union soldiers who were bivouacking nearby and carried home

hats filled with sugar the soldiers had given them. Or maybe they’d talk about the days in the 1880s when the Powell Valley Railroad shattered the quiet as they came laying tracks through the pastures.

Kevin Murphy is the latest Murphy to own the 175-year-old house on property the family has owned since 1797. He not only renovated the house with an eye to protecting its structural and aesthetic integrity, but he also has worked diligently for the past four years to document its stories in the

process of having his family home added to the National Register of Historic Places.

He built on the research Ann Bennett of the Metropolitan Planning Commission did 25 years ago when she set out to identify potential historic sites in Knox County.

Last week his hard work and considerable investment were rewarded when he was notified that not only had the house at 4108 Murphy Road been added to the register, but also that most of the property that comprises the 170-acre Murphy

Springs Farm has been designated a historic district, probably the largest such district in Knox County.

“I’m pretty much over the moon,” he said. “The best part was telling my grandfather.”

Murphy, 37, is a graduate of Rice University and an information technology architect at Scripps Networks Interactive. Although he was born and grew up in Florida, he spent childhood summer vacations at Murphy Springs and says that while he considered making his home in other parts of the country, he

The brick and wood fireplace in an upstairs bedroom adds warmth and charm to the home. The bedroom overlooks the backyard. Photos submitted always felt a connection to the land and the homeplace in Tennessee.

“It’s a strange thing. The house and farm are the things that have always stayed the same, and having something that never changed was important to me. The best moment of this process was when I called my grandfather to tell him about the historic designation. He was so happy to see it – over the years there were times when he’d say, ‘Maybe we should just bulldoze it down,’ because it was a money pit.”

In recent years, Murphy has been a hospitable host, opening Murphy Springs to gatherings large and small, and he hopes to do more of that in the near future.

He hopes to start thinking about conservation easements and historic overlays to protect the land, after he takes a little time to consider what he’s learned from his efforts so far.

“It has been so enjoyable to research my family’s history, and now I have a better understanding of all the things that came together to make me who I am.”
