Volunteers keep on planting Last Saturday, dozens of Keep Knoxville Beautiful volunteers planted more than 100 white crepe myrtles on the Heiskell and Woodland exits of I-275. This was the second stage of the beautification project launched last November when 223 volunteers planted 60,000 daffodils along the same interstate area. Those daffodils are now blooming.

By Betty Bean The west side of the gap in the ridge above the intersection at Clinton Highway and Old Callahan Road is home to the historic Powell Airplane service station. The east side is a massive excavation site where earth-moving equipment is eating away the hillside and massive dump trucks are hauling off the dirt. The property owner, Lonnie Harris, says he’s trying to flatten out the property – which is zoned agricultural and is a statelicensed borrow pit – to make it better suited to farming. He said he’s contributing to the economy by providing fill dirt for a new Kroger store on the old Powell Airport site on Emory Road. Thanks to a finger annexation several years ago, the former airport property, a low-lying, flood-prone wetland near Beaver Creek, is inside the city limits. “Under state law I can do whatever I need to do to make my land

All the dirt that’s coming out of that is going into areas that are going to build commercial buildings. Yes, there’s a lot of dirt being moved, and it’s going to help increase the property tax base. Commercial property generates a lot more tax money. They need to fill 15 feet, and they had to get the dirt somewhere,� Harris said. Although Harris has had the borrow pit permit for 20 years,

he blames the Knoxville-Knox County Hillside and Slope Protection Plan, adopted by the city in December 2011 and the county in 2012, for the excavation operation, which he concedes is unsightly but says is really nobody’s business but his own. “When all these idiots like Tony Norman and Joe Hultquist (who jointly chaired the Hillside and Slope Protection Taskforce and

presided over public meetings all over the county, at which Harris showed up to protest) tried to get this stupid hillside and ridge top plan through, what they succeeded in doing was making it so only the rich can afford to hold land. What they failed to realize is agriculture is usually conducted in the lower areas where it’s farmable. Residences are on hillsides. Now they’ve made it so hard to build anything there. This issue goes so deep, and the whole reason for it was so somebody else could confiscate somebody’s property so they can look at, because it’s pretty. ‌ It’s confiscating the wealth and value of somebody else’s property.â€? Although the county has no authority over the borrow pit except to monitor erosion control and no jurisdiction over the new Kroger site, Norman, a former county commissioner who is now a storm water project manager and works with engineers, developers and citizens on storm water issues, isn’t enthusiastic about any aspect of Harris’s operation. “Chopping off a mountain and hauling it over to fill in a flood plain? That’s just awesome. Lonnie’s a champion. A flood plain’s To page A-3

Community Center takes shape By Sandra Clark

Knox County government could provide funding for the new Community Center on Emory Road through a buy and lease-back arrangement with the Heiskell Community Organization. Commissioner Charles Busler is advocating an arrangement in which the community group would lease the building from Knox County, operate the center and make improvements. The county would buy the building and its 14-acre site for $200,000. Knox County would have no on-going financial obligation for staffing or upkeep. In exchange, the community group would keep income from leasing space. Nobody is talking, but if the ment budget, from fund balance ends June 30, or from a direct county proceeds, the money could (surplus) when the county closes appropriation in next year’s budcome through its capital improve- its books for the fiscal year which get which Mayor Tim Burchett is

Hall shares story of faith By Ruth White News anchor Ted Hall brought a message of trust and letting go of control when he spoke Friday at the Halls Business and Professional Association’s annual prayer breakfast. Hall was a reporter and news anchor at WBIR-TV for 18 years before heading to Atlanta to work at WXIA. He shared with the group his road to becoming a news anchor and how he learned to let go. While visiting family in Kansas, Hall’s wife, Lesa, noticed that their youngest son, Keaton, wasn’t acting quite right and realized he was having a seizure. The couple rushed him to a hospital there and were advised to return to Atlanta WVLT news anchor Ted Hall shares his story of faith with promptly.

He began to ask God why his son, why his little boy ‌. And he began to pray. “I heard the words clearly from God one day while I was praying, and He told me that He loved Keaton more than I ever could and to trust Him.â€?

Hall reminded the group that God’s plan is always better than our own. “I’m not sure about the future, but I don’t have to worry about it.� Following Keaton’s illness, Hall’s priorities changed. After fulfilling his contract at WXIA, he quit his job, trusted God and returned to Knoxville. He is currently working at WVLT and is thrilled to be back home. “This time, instead of praying and telling God what I wanted to do, I waited on God.�

health & lifestyles

A blessing for body, mind and spirit In the last 18 months, Debra Hinson, 50, has lost nearly 100 pounds. The Sevierville resident said she has revamped not only her body, but her mind and spirit as well. “I have been on every diet that you can possibly think of my whole life,” Hinson said. “Grapefruit diet, cabbage soup. But nothing worked for long. “I have always been heavy. My family is heavy. I’ve tried cutting my food in half, diet plans and programs, Fen-Phen, just about anything,” she said. “At one point I was up to 267 pounds.” Facing sleep problems, depression, arthritis and a very high body mass index, Hinson turned to Jonathan H. Ray, MD, a surgeon at the Center for Bariatric Surgery at Fort Sanders Regional Medical Center. After reviewing her case, Dr. Ray recommended sleeve gastrectomy, a minimally invasive weight loss procedure in which the stomach is reduced to about 25 percent of its original size. The remaining stomach, instead of being kidney-shaped, is shaped more like a tube or sleeve. The surgery is performed with laparoscopic instruments, typically through five small incisions in the abdomen. “The sleeve gastrectomy is the most common weight loss operation performed in the world,” said Dr. Ray. “It’s a less complex operation with lower risks and costs, providing near comparable weight loss and improvement or resolution of co-morbid conditions as compared to more complex procedures. This is very attractive to most patients.” He performed Hinson’s procedure in September 2014. Dr. Ray said most patients lose a significant amount of weight and keep it off with a sleeve gas-

trectomy. “They can do well with surgery if they will change their living habits. They need to become accountable and more active, eat better and exercise,” he said. And that’s what Hinson has done. Always an exerciser and runner, she still runs three or four days each week. “I have a love-hate relationship with running,” she said with a laugh. “I started running before the surgery, and I actually ran the Covenant Half Marathon in 2011 at 225 pounds. It took me three hours and 30 minutes to run it. I ran the full marathon before surgery, too. It took me six hours and 19 minutes. So now I’m working up to running the marathon again at a lower weight.” She added that her eating habits have undergone the biggest change. “Portion control has been an issue. Now I don’t have a choice,” she said. “Once you have this surgery your portion control is made for you. If I eat more than I should, I’ll be sick.” Hinson eats a high-protein, low-carbohydrate diet. For breakfast she might have a whole-wheat English muffin with turkey bacon and ham. For lunch she has a chicken breast or tuna and a salad. And dinner? She plans that out ahead of time. “Tonight it’s salmon, quinoa and sautéed spinach,” she said. “Food preparation, that’s a big thing. Planning your meals is a big, big help. I shop and plan for the week, and planning is your success. This is not just a diet; it’s a lifestyle change, and to be successful you have to plan.” Hinson acknowledges the weight could come back if she overeats, because her stomach could enlarge again. “I could graze all day and gain the weight back,

or I can eat the way I should eat. My choice is to eat the right way,” she said. Most patients, Dr. Ray said, are successful in their weight loss goals. “The majority of patients, can keep off the weight long-term if they adhere to the proper bariatric diet, adequate exercise, attend support groups and regular follow up visits,” said Dr. Ray. He noted that a benefit of the surgery is its positive effect on chronic health conditions. “Most patients having this surgery have chronic health conditions. Type II diabetes, hypertension, high cholesterol, obstructive sleep apnea usually markedly improve or resolve following weight loss surgery. This results in a reduced number of medications needed as Debra Hinson has lost well as in nearly 100 pounds substantial thanks to turning to savings on Jonathan H.

The ‘how?’ and ‘why?’ of bariatric surgery Obesity has become a significant national health issue. Our society is overweight. The foods we eat are often poor choices and can lead to obesity. Morbid obesity, defined as having a BMI over 35 and being at risk for obesity-related health issues, is closely correlated with serious medical conditions including heart disease, high blood pressure and diabetes. The Fort Sanders Center for Bariatric Surgery is the answer to the prayers of many who battle obesity and its accompanying issues. Bariatric surgeons Dr. Mark Colquitt and Dr. Jonathan Ray have helped more than 2,200 patients lose close to 200,000 pounds through a combination of surgical, spiritual and emotional support. The atmosphere at the Center for Bariatric Surgery is one of support and encouragement. Many of our staff members have undergone bariatric surgery and use their experience to help others be successful on their journey. The surgeons offer two main options for their patients: laparoscopic gastric bypass (usually done as a robotic procedure), in which a smaller stomach pouch is created and a portion of the small

groups for patients after their bariatric surgery. Hinson attends a monthly group at Fort Sanders Regional Medical Center. “I go to a monthly support group,” said Hinson. “It’s always informational. They ask whether you’re having problems or pain, and we swap recipes. This month they went shopping to read food labels, which is great. It’s always a learning process.” Hinson said her sleep problems have resolved, and she no longer struggles with depression. “I’m within 27 pounds of my goal weight, and I’m still working on it,” she said. “I think when you go on a diet and it works for awhile, and then it doesn’t work and you fail, that brings you down. Since I had ‘the sleeve’ and have lost the weight, my self-esteem has come up. I’m not taking antidepressants. I feel better all around.” Hinson said she would recommend Dr. Ray and his staff to anyone thinking about bariatric surgery. “I have recommended Dr. Ray to anyone who has come to me and said they were interested. He is the most inspirational and compassionate man. His bedside manner is great, and he’s a friend. He puts himself in your shoes. He’s truly there with you. “I would do the surgery again in a heartbeat,” she added. “All I can say is, it’s a blessing and I’m glad I had the opportunity to meet Dr. Ray. He’s great and this has been a godsend for me. I know I’ll have many more years to go with what he has given to me.”

TIPS FOR SOCIAL EATING SUCCESS For everyone trying to lose weight, attending a social event can often cause anxiety. Whether it is dinner with friends or a girls/ guys night out, remember, being social and overeating don’t have to go hand-in-hand. Here are some tips to consider:

■ NEVER ARRIVE HUNGRY. Eat every three to four hours, and always have a healthy snack with you such as a protein bar or raw almonds, so you don’t arrive feeling famished. ■ EAT PROTEIN FIRST. Protein helps with metabolism, keeps you full longer and may help you cut down on those carbs that are so tempting.

Drs. Mark Colquitt and Jonathan Ray serve patients at the Fort Sanders Center for Bariatric Surgery. intestine is rerouted to the pouch; and sleeve gastrectomy, which removes a portion of the stomach and creates a narrower digestive tube. “The safety of bariatric surgery has improved greatly,” Dr. Colquitt said. “Today, the surgical risk of the procedure is comparable to having a gallbladder removed.” “But in order for bariatric surgery to succeed, people have to commit to making the lifestyle

changes to support the choice,” Dr. Colquitt said. Dr. Ray added, “Our team will be there for the patient before and after the procedure. We can get them to the door, but they have to walk through it. “Our goal is to promote health and wellness and support an obesity-free lifestyle,” they say, “and to help our patients become more productive – and fully engaged in life.”

■ DRINK WATER OR OTHER NON-CALORIC BEVERAGES. Coffee and tea, which are very low in calories, are staples. Avoid alcohol and sugary drinks. Alcohol can lower your inhibitions, making “bad choices” hard to resist. ■ CHEW GUM. Chewing sugar-free gum can satisfy your oral fi xation and curb your appetite. ■ CHEW SLOWLY. Eating a meal quickly inhibits the release of hormones in the stomach that induce feelings of being full, resulting in overeating. ■ PUT YOUR FOOD ON A PLATE. Picking foods from one plate to the next can add up quickly. Seeing how much you eat will allow you better control your caloric intake. Remember, socializing is about family and friends instead of eating. If you end up overindulging, give yourself a break. Get right back on track the next meal – not the next week – by recommitting to healthy eating and regular exercise.

Heralding Holston Hills history By Cindy Taylor

Much of Knoxville’s history is deeply rooted in the Holston Hills community, including that of the Dogwood Arts Festival. John Duncan Sr. became mayor of Knoxville in 1959. Early Dogwood Trails had already been established but during Duncan’s time in office the Dogwood Arts Festival was born. Duncan lived in Holston Hills at the time. His son U.S. Rep. John Duncan Jr. and daughter state Sen. Becky Massey grew up in the community. Holston Hills residents initiated clean-up and beautification of their community in 1956 which won them the honor of becoming the second official Dogwood Trail. In 1947 author John Gunther declared Knoxville the “ugliest city� in the United States in his book “Inside U.S.A.� Civic leaders and the offended folks of Knoxville came together to correct that view by cleaning, planting and redecorating their yards. As a result the Dogwood Arts Festival was born a few years later. It wasn’t long until Knoxville became a destination city during April of each year when Dogwoods bloomed and glorious open gardens welcomed the public. According to the Dogwood Arts Festival website, Paul Harvey was quoted as saying that “the city (Knoxville) becomes young again every spring.� The Dogwood Arts Festival celebrated 60 years in 2014. Events for the 2016 festival begin April 1. The official opening date for the trails is April 15 but with this year’s warm spring many of those are already ablaze with color. Holston Hills celebrates its 60th year as a Dogwood trail this year and is the featured trail. While much has changed, the majority of the historic homes are still intact and many descendents of the first families continue to call the community their home.

Topic is domestic abuse Willie Lane talked about domestic abuse when the Emory Road Chapter DAR met in March. Lane works for Knox County District Attorney General Charme Allen. She said victims could be male or female, but are most frequently female. Prosecution has increased since Allen placed a priority on abuse cases. The DA’s office works with police officers or deputies to document evidence in such cases to present in court. Lane emphasized the

AG says drug war ‘a colossal failure’ By Wendy Smith The Farragut West Knoxville Chamber of Commerce hosted a panel discussion on drug use at last week’s Breakfast Speaker Series event. While it wasn’t a business-related topic, Knox County Sheriff’s Office Assistant Chief Deputy Lee Tramel said drug problems touch everyone. “It’s an epidemic of Biblical proportions.� Tramel sat on the panel with Knox County District Attorney General Charme Allen and Criminal Court Clerk Mike Hammond. Drug problems used to be limited to certain parts of town, and Farragut wasn’t one of them, Allen said. But that’s changed. “Nobody’s immune from this problem.� The judicial system is

facing a major shift in the way it handles drug offenders. The War on Drugs was a colossal failure, she said. According to a list she receives from the Knox County medical examiner, there were 84 overdose deaths last year. Just over 80 days into 2016, there have been 43. The primary culprit is heroin, which appeals to young adults because it’s cheaper than pills. Tramel estimates that 99 percent of those in jail are there because of drugs, at least indirectly. The county houses approximately 1,200 inmates every day, and 23 to 25 percent are mentally ill. “It’s no place for a sick person to be.� The county is closer to having a safety center than ever, but many details need to be addressed, he said.

Moderator Mike Arms with panelists Lee Tramel, Charme Allen and Mike Hammond at the Farragut West Knoxville Chamber of Commerce Breakfast Speaker Series event at Fox Den Country Club Photo by Wendy Smith Allen agrees with the concept, but struggles with deciding who should be prosecuted and who should be sent to a safety or rehabilitation center. It could

take three different forms − a mental health facility, an addiction treatment facility, or jail diversion for those committing low level crimes, like public intoxica-

tion or disorderly conduct. Repeat offenders are good candidates for a safety center, she said. Those offenders are costing the county money, said

Hammond. Two Sessions Court repeat offenders owe over $1 million each. “All the stakeholders are coming together. I think we can pull this off,� said Allen.

Put me in, coach! I cannot remember a time when I didn’t know Johnny Majors. Or at least felt like I did, even though the closest I got to Neyland Stadium as a kid was when my brother and I listened to George John Majors Mo o n e y ’s vivid word pictures of Johnny weaving his way down the field, bouncing off guys twice his size. We knew he was tough as a gizzard, but I don’t think we fully appreciated how physically overmatched he was, or how smart. We were just proud he was ours. And when those of us of a certain age remember a Tennessee guy getting screwed out of the Heisman, we don’t automatically think of Peyton Manning because it happened to Johnny first,

Betty Bean and we don’t let go of that kind of stuff. And now, Johnny Majors, the quintessential underdog without an ounce of quit, has entered a new arena in his golden years. And he’s lining up with the underdogs. Tennessee is red as a red state can get. John Terrell Majors’ blood runs orange. His heart is unapologetically blue. He’s been easing into the world of politics over the last few years, primarily campaigning for former players Heath Shuler and Anthony Hancock. This year, Majors is campaigning for Democrat Gloria Johnson, and he clearly doesn’t give a damn who likes it. One of his old players, who wishes to remain

anonymous, explains: “He hates those damn right wing nut job Republicans, always telling people how to live,” adding that Majors is staunchly pro-choice and that he likely had many conversations about politics with his brother Joe, a longtime (and very influential) Nashville lobbyist. “Probably explains why he thinks almost everyone in Nashville is an idiot.” Last week, Majors was guest of honor at a campaign kickoff for Johnson, who was ousted from her 13th District state House seat in 2014 by her GOP challenger, a promoter of Christian music who benefited from a GOP sweep year and an avalanche of outside money – remember the ads comparing Johnson to Lane Kiffin? (Don’t ask. It won some kind of political consultant award, so it must’ve been successful.) Knoxville financial advisor David Moon, an Ala-

bama native whom Majors recruited away from Bear Bryant to play offensive tackle at Tennessee in the early ’80s, isn’t surprised by his coach’s latest incarnation: “He is a remarkably complex man. It’s hard for most people to believe that a man who is able to ride a person’s ass like he can also loves museums, the symphony and is a passionate naturist and conservationist. He loves the geography of East Tennessee and often talked about it to his teams. His Thanksgiving Day speech always included references to the beauty of the mountains, rivers, etc. As a 20-year-old, it was hard to believe that a tree hugger could be such a strict, unwavering disciplinarian.” At the end of his speech at the Johnson event, Majors turned to his candidate: “Coach Gloria, put me in. I got my chin strap on and I got my jock strap on. I’m ready to play.”

government Where does Haslam stand on parkway extension? What is going on with our TDOT Commissioner John Schroer, who is once again advocating the very expensive extension of the James White Parkway across the urban wilderness of South Knoxville? Schroer works for Gov. Bill Haslam. How is it he comes to the governor’s hometown, where he was mayor for seven years, John Schroer to advocate a controversial project? Was this with or without the governor’s approval? Mayor Madeline Rogero and Gov. Haslam are friends and even political allies on certain issues despite belonging to different political parties. Rogero has staked much of her mayoral term on stopping the James White Parkway and secured opposition to it from the local Transportation Planning Organization (TPO). That opposition should be honored unless rescinded. Now the Governor’s point-person on increasing the gas tax and roads comes to the city Rogero leads as mayor and re-starts the battle to build the James White Parkway which was buried three years ago. Is Schroer free-lancing here without Haslam’s knowledge or approval? Is he out on his own? What gives? It is hard to believe Schroer would do this without informing the governor. Legacy Parks and greenway advocates have lobbied hard to halt this project. Schroer has done very little to help Chapman Highway despite a clear need to act. Council members Nick Pavlis and Brenda Palmer are strongly opposed to the Schroer position. Pavlis has been an active advocate of

It’s past time to consolidate Parks & Rec Neighborhood activist Ronnie Collins visited with Knox County commissioners at the monthly Ed and Bob’s night out, held last week at Sam & Andy’s in Fountain City.

the urban wilderness. Rogero has not personally lobbied state lawmakers on this issue and leaves it to her lobbyist, Tony Thompson. Her approach to lobbying is very different from Knox County Mayor Tim Burchett who does the heavy lifting himself on a direct basis with state legislators. He is more successful than Rogero in Nashville. ■ Rogero teamed with Memphis Mayor Jim Strickland and Chattanooga Mayor Andy Berke to gain a one-week Senate deferral on a House-passed bill to allow certain citizens to de-annex under certain conditions. The mayors cited revenue concerns along with problems in providing emergency services. ■ Gov. Haslam has named two Knoxville residents, Madge Cleveland and Pete Claussen, to the Tennessee Heritage Conservation Trust Fund. Claussen is also on the Tennessee State Museum Commission with this writer. Cleveland was once office manager for Mayor Ashe. Haslam has also filled the position of Deborah DiPietro on the State Museum Commission with Eleanor Yoakum from Tazewell. She is a former commissioner in the cabinet of former Gov.

Teen Safe Driver Program underway at Powell High School By Sarah Connatser Teen Driver Safety Awareness swept through Powell High School last Wednesday when all 1,500 students viewed a 15-minute video about four people who were interviewed about their experiences in fatal car accidents. The video was presented by State Farm Insurance representative Sage Kohler and her associate Rachel Wilburn, who are co-chairs of the Teen Driver committee of the Powell Business and Professional Association. They take pride in being passionate about driver safety, especially for teens, because of their susceptibility to being involved in car accidents that are caused by speeding, drinking, or texting behind the wheel. Besides the video, Kohler and Wilburn also handed out commitment cards for students to sign that would pledge them to safe driving. After signing, they received a key fob, designed by the SADD (Students Against Destructive Decisions) organization at PHS that also had a hand in planning the event. “You have the opportunity to take action,� Wilburn said to students, urging them to sign and hopefully spread awareness of the dangers of reckless driving.

The video focused on a handful of people who had survived their own car accidents, all of them fatal. One had killed four people. The video included a recording of the chilling 911 dispatch for one of the accidents. Said one of the survivors, “All it takes is one mistake� – and there have been far too many simple mistakes that teens have made, resulting in serious injury or worse. Powell students and recent alumni may remember Austin Gordon, the PHS junior who sustained life-threatening injuries in a single-driver crash in 2012. Koby Hyde, a PHS graduate of 2015, is another example, receiving serious brain trauma in an accident in 2013. He was in a coma for almost a week before waking up and starting recovery. Dreyson Stewart was laid to rest in 2013, just months after the Hyde accident, after his motorcycle struck another vehicle. He was 19 years old and also a PHS graduate. Kelsey Anito teaches history at Powell, and she’s also the sponsor of the SADD club. She said she was approached by PHS principal Chad Smith to lead it, due to her own experience with car accident

He’s been with Rural/Metro for two years, following in the footsteps of his uncle, who worked as a firefighter for 35 years. Nix said he was glad that he had the opportunity to do something he otherwise never would have done, and that it was interesting to see what goes on “behind the scenes� at emergencies. Car accidents are the leading cause of death for teens, and adolescents aged 16-19 are involved in fatal crashes at four times the rate of adult drivers. Thanks to Teen Driver Safety Awareness, we could be taking the first steps in lowering those statistics.

Facts are relevant By Cindy Taylor Knoxville native and Fountain City CPA Tommy Daugherty has a passion for history, especially Christian history. That passion inspired him to spend the past three years writing the book “Why Your History Matters.” This is Daugherty’s first published work. He says that while he felt compelled to write the book he certainly doesn’t recommend giving up your day job to become an author. He has spent the past three years doing research and writing the book while running his own business. The concept for the book goes back much further. “The seed for this book was planted more than 30 years ago when I was in college,” he said. “Surprisingly it was during a study of “Sir Gawain and the Green Knight” in English Masterpieces.” Daugherty says his college years were the most formative for him as far as his

personal spiritual growth. “Why Your History Matters” tackles many tough questions, the most prevalent being, will Christian history survive the Information Age? In attempting to answer that question and others Daugherty spent countless hours doing research and studying the Christian faith among many different denominations. When asked why this book and why now, Daugherty has an instant response. “This book is an easy read and the subject matter is relevant to where our culture is right now. We are in danger of losing our identity as Christians. This book is for believers and non-believers alike and pertains to all denominations. This is a factual book and focuses on a subject we should all be concerned about. I hope to whet the appetite of my readers to do their own research.” In the near future Daugherty is looking at teaching

a class at his home church Buffat Heights Baptist based on the content of his book. “I believe this book is very timely. The Bible tells us that there is nothing new under the sun. We need to reconnect to our Christian heritage to rediscover and embrace the history that connects and unites us. I am a seeker of truth in both my spiritual and business life so researching history for this book was a great outlet for me.” The book has already been well received by scholars and laypeople. Daugherty says he is not a scholar but a history buff. Since it is the height of tax season, Daugherty says his main focus needs to stay on his primary profession for right now. Once the month of April passes, Daugherty plans to start promoting his book with signings and possibly a book launch. Future plans include many more projects.

“Getting published was very difficult,” said Daugherty. “This has been an exciting journey but I’m thankful the book is finally finished and available for purchase.” “Why Your History Matters” is available on Kindle. Print version will be available on Amazon April 1. Daugherty can be reached at www.dcpllc.org or tommy @dcpllc.org

I have donated blood to the Red Cross for years. There is a saying among Red Cross volunteers: “Blood is like a parachute; if you don’t have it when you need it, you won’t ever need it again.” In this Easter season, I think about the blood of the Lamb of God, poured out for our sakes. He freely “donated” that blood we so desperately need, giving it willingly, out of obedience to the Father and love for all of us. I have known pastors who were squeamish about blood, avoiding any mention of it during Holy Week. But the Jews of Jesus’ day understood about it. And Jesus understood that he was taking the place of the Jewish Passover lamb, becoming the sacrificial Lamb for all of humankind. Herod and Pilate sent Jesus back and forth, each trying to avoid responsibility for Jesus’

fate. Herod had his soldiers flog him and put an elegant robe on him to mock him, then sent him back to Pilate. Pilate was uneasy about Jesus’ blood being on his hands, and so publicly tried to wash away his guilt in the matter. He ultimately left Jesus to the angry Passover crowd, who were shouting for Jesus’ execution. (Isn’t it odd that not one of that bloodthirsty crowd bothered to stand at the foot of the Cross and actually witness the agony of their victim?) The triumph of Easter is that untold millions stand at the foot of an empty cross and today worship a living Lord!

business ‘Art of Recycling’ exhibit in April Sculptures created by eight University of Tennessee art students that incorporate materials provided by steel recycler Gerdau will be on public display April 1-17 at the Knoxville Convention Center. “The Art of Recycling” sculpture exhibition celebrates April’s National Recycling Month and is a partnership among Gerdau, Dogwood Arts and the University of Tennessee sculpture program. The sculptures will be unveiled in a public ceremony Friday, April 1, at 10 a.m. In February, Gerdau’s Knoxville steel mill opened its scrap yard to the students, along with John Powers, UT assistant professor of sculpture. The group selected more than two tons of discarded metal and steel, provided free of charge by Gerdau, and gained inspiration for new works of art. “I am delighted that our students again have the opportunity to participate in this wonderful experience,” said Powers, who has worked with the project since 2014. “We appreciate Gerdau’s generosity and hospitality. The access and support they provide are key to this event’s success. The students’ creative juices are flowing, and they are eager to reveal their works to the public.” The partnership always has resulted in new works of art, but 2015 was the first time it culminated in a public art exhibition.

Funky, eclectic vintage in Knoxville Jeff Bolin and wife Amie met through their mutual love of all things nostalgic. Amie loved repurposing furniture. Jeff had other interests.

“Deep Roots” by UT sculpture program student Brian Hoppers is one of eight sculptures in the Art of Recycling sculpture exhibition that runs April 1-17 at the Knoxville Convention Center.

Knoxville Convention Center remains an enthusiastic supporter of the project. Participating UT students include Shane Coe, Will Evers, Brian Hoppers, Erica Mendoza, Marisa Mitchell, Patty Tinsley, Charlie Waddle and Anna Weible. Around the world, Gerdau transforms millions of metric tons of scrap into steel every year. The company’s Knoxville mill recycles discarded steel into reinforcing bar, which is used to support concrete in new bridges, buildings and other structures.

“I’ve been collecting antiques and vintage since I was 12 years old,” said Jeff. “I had an obsession with 1950s items.” It didn’t take long for their personal partnership to branch out into co-ownership of two unique shops. The two refer to their shops as funky, eclectic vintage stores. Nostalgia was established in West Knoxville more than nine years ago by Amie. Nostalgia on McCalla came about six years later. Jeff manages the McCalla shop while Amie manages the original store in West Knoxville. Jeff does metal work, but his current obsession is vintage clothing. He has a booth in the McCalla shop along with eight other artists and more than 30 total dealers. “I enjoy matching a customer with just the right piece of vintage clothing,” said Jeff. “I love all my artists and dealers and I love this store. My vendors all have different flairs and tastes. I am the most blessed shop in Knoxville.” The shops are great places to browse for household items, vintage clothing, books, jewelry, furniture and more. Artists have booths where customers can purchase pottery, metal art,

paintings, etc. All art is local and original and prices are surprisingly affordable. Pottery artist Scottie Baxter displays her work at Nostalgia on McCalla. “Jeff is constantly improving the store and recruiting new vendors,” said Baxter. “A lot of people don’t realize what an eclectic place it is.” Baxter mentioned that many of the creations carried are upcycled, repurposed and made from reclaimed items. Natural yarns are a newer addition to the shop.

From mid-century modern to steampunk, the variety of items available in the shops draws all ages, dispositions and bargain hunters. The Bolins make their store available for a few local club meetings as well. Jeff says the area is very up-and-coming. “There are new businesses moving into the block and we are within walking distance of the Old City,” said Jeff. “During First Fridays we are open late and have outdoor events, music and food.” The Bolins say their shops are best described

as epitomizing the reduce, reuse, recycle mentality, and that Nostalgia supports the entrepreneurial spirit of its vendors by providing a space where artists and craftsmen can sell their creations, teach others and collaborate to exchange ideas. Nostalgia in Bearden is at 5214 Homberg Drive; 5840832. Nostalgia on McCalla is near the east end of the Old City at 1401 McCalla Avenue; 622-3252. Visit Facebook. com/NostalgiaOnMcCalla.

a gem next door By Sandra Clark Big Ridge State Park has a new park manager, Keith Montgomery, who has quickly embraced the public service and downright friendliness that sets this park apart. That was obvious last Saturday at the park’s annual day-before-Easter egg hunt which attracted some 4,900 visitors, based on the rangers’ car count. An event this big doesn’t happen by accident. It’s a treat for kids because of the hard work by park workers and volunteers and the financial support from individuals and businesses from a three-state region. Boy Scouts guarded the perimeter before each hunt. But back to Montgomery. He walked into the center of the scattered eggs to take pictures and start the hunt. He recruited the Easter Bunny (a nephew, Robert Allen) and even his wife, Tanda Montgomery, as the

bunny’s sidekick. Montgomery previously worked at the Knoxville Zoo with a specialty in landscaping and outdoor event management. Big Ridge State Park is just minutes away. Take I-75 north to the Hwy. 61 exit (watch for billboards touting the Museum of Appalachia). Turn right and travel about 20 minutes through scenic farms, quaint Andersonville where the speed limit really is 30 mph, and rugged Union County ridges. You will love this park. Here’s what the Legacy Parks Foundation website says about Big Ridge: Big Ridge State Park rests on the southern shore of Norris Lake, an impoundment of the Clinch River created by the completion of Norris Dam in 1936. Much of the park’s recreational focus centers on the 49-acre Big Ridge Lake where you can enjoy sand volleyball, tennis, horseshoes, basketball

For overnight backcountry camping, there are three designated campsites. Backcountry camping is free, but a permit is required. Leashed pets are allowed, but no pack animals. Fishing: Enjoy lake fishing year round along the shoreline with the exception of the swimming beach. There are a variety of fish on the lake, including bluegill, smallmouth bass, largemouth bass and crappie. The boat ramp at the park is open from Memorial Day through Labor Day.

The park’s most prominent historical features are: ■ the Norton Gristmill built in 1825, now mostly a replica but the original mill race and millstones remain;

■ Indian Rock where a plaque marks the site of the 1794 ambush of Peter Graves; ■ a small monument at Lon Sharp Cemetery recalls the 18th-century Sharp’s Station believed to have been located near the cemetery; and ■ the Norton Cemetery which houses the grave of Maston Hutcheson (18261910), who according to local lore is responsible for hauntings in the area. A few minor remains of Hutcheson’s house are still visible at the junction of the Ghost House Loop Trail and the Big Valley Trail connector. Paddling: While private boats are not allowed on the spring-fed lake within the park, rental canoes, paddleboats and rowboats are available during the summer. Paddlers can access the boat ramp at Norris Lake on the western section of the park, just past the park entrance. There is no access during the winter due to the lake’s low water level.

The park’s sandy beach is a popular swimming area in summer. Seasonal Interpretive Rangers provide free weekly activities during the summer including guided hikes, movies, campfires, arts and crafts, nature programs and organized sports.

Bicycling: Within the park, bicycles are allowed on the paved roads only, but there are miles of lesstraveled country roads surrounding the park that can provide hours of scenic riding for the road enthusiast. Camping: The Park maintains a 50-site campground, 19 rustic cabins and a large group camp area.
