Fun on Norris Lake New floating grill at Hickory Star

By Libby Morgan An influx of new energy, savvy management and big money at Hickory Star is generating improvements at the 60-plus-yearold Norris Lake marina.

Hickory Star Marina ■ 1360 Hickory Star Road ■ Maynardville, TN 37807 ■ 800-235-6866 ■ HickoryStar.com

Justin Noah became the general manager two years ago when David and Johnny Parton and Dean Knuckles of southeast Kentucky purchased the property.

“We have a lot more plans for the marina, but right now we’re working every day to get Arjay’s on the dock open before Memorial Day weekend,” says Noah.

“We named it that because the owners all have close ties to the town of Arjay, Ky.,” he says, citing the community just north of Pineville.

The eatery will feature 3,000 square feet of mostly-covered floating patio, adjacent to the dock store, with nice roomy restrooms. The uprights of the railings around the patio are thick nautical rope.

Recruiting More than once you may have heard that recruiting is the lifeblood of Tennessee football.

Butch Jones and his people are on the case. Their start is encouraging. There is a catch: They still must identify and sign more and better players than Alabama, Georgia, Florida, South Carolina and opponents of that ilk if they hope to whip them on the field.

Hummin’, strummin’ Music star comes home and yummin’ for Friday concert

By Anne Hart

If the mere thought of good barbecue – chicken, pork ribs, pulled pork or brisket – makes your mouth water, and if the idea of live music by performers with several popular bands gets your toes tapping, next weekend should be total bliss for you.

The “First Annual Rocky Top Hummin’ & Strummin’ BBQ Cookoff” is set to open to the public at 6 p.m. Friday on the 100-acre campus of the Episcopal School of Knoxville and continue noon to 5 p.m. on Saturday.

Davis Charolais Mike or Brad Davis 423-626-0313 or 423-489-9302 davischarolais@gmail.com

Tickets are $10 per day or $15 for two days and may be purchased at the gate.

Sponsored by the Rotary Club of West Knoxville and benefitting its projects at home and globally, the two-day event is sanctioned by the Kansas City Barbecue Society.

It will feature 50 barbecue cooking teams from across the country vying for $10,000 in prizes and the chance to compete at the annual Jack Daniels BBQ

Grant deadlines loom

The Chamber office work surfaces got all stacked up with forms, questionnaires, demographics, charts, maps, lists, notes and reports to fuel the frenzy for Julie Graham and Neva Kitts.

Three grant proposals are due this week.

“The money that grants generate is a huge part of what makes the Chamber function,” says Graham.

“And we never see the biggest part of the actual money. We see the benefits of the money in work accomplished, such as $42,000 in planning for downtown Maynardville.”

It’s time for budget requests to county commission, and the Chamber is adding up what it has generated for a status report to the commission.

“Documenting our work is a necessary evil, since we have to stop progress and make reports, but we must report to grantor agencies just exactly what has been done to fulfill grant usage requirements in order to continue to be

Plans for Art on Main, a June 1 event, are unfolding daily, with news of a kiddie train to be on site with rides for a dollar.

“Main Street Depot” will be circling the grounds during the one-day music and arts festival.

Children who are brought to the free health fair at the festival will receive a free train ticket.

Event organizers are looking for artisan vendors to supply unique products. A few more food vendors will be accepted.

Musicians are encouraged and welcomed to join in the jam sessions, which will go on all day.

Fun on Norris Lake Tables and comfortable chairs for up to 80 will fill the space, and two 55-inch TVs are being installed. New gas grills and fryers are being installed inside.

Arjay’s will serve draft beer along with burgers, hot dogs, pizza, hot wings and sandwiches. It will have a full breakfast menu including homemade biscuits and gravy.

The new grill manager, as yet to be hired, will be free to add his or her own ideas to the menu, according to Noah.

He has narrowed the field of potential head cooks to a few candidates, and has hired servers, adding to the regular dock staff of boat handlers, gas pump helpers and store cashiers on duty around the clock.

The lodge on the hill above the dock, formerly containing a sit-down restaurant, will be available as a wedding and party venue, with its industrial kitchen intact.

Park models (small mobile homes), motel rooms, RVs and other lodging are available for nightly rentals at Hickory Star. Pontoon boats can be rented for the day. And the swimming pool has new filtering equipment and is being readied for the season.

“We’re lucky to own the property here. Some of the other marinas were hit

harder than we were with a thousand percent hike in TVA license fees plus stricter campground and RV rules on TVA land,” says Noah.

“We plan to expand our RV and camping sites over to the other side of the cove and we’ll move our park models to the lakefront over there,” he adds, referring to the hillside to the west of the main dock, where a bridge was installed a few years ago.

Weather doesn’t stop anglers, and a few were seen coming and going on a sunny, but chilly, day.

“I’ve watched this place grow and improve greatly over the years,” says Mark Cook, as he loads his boat on its trailer, heading back home to Mousie, Ky. This is our annual fishing trip.

“My son here (Mark Anthony Cook) and I have had a nice weekend fishing for smallmouth. The water’s cold right now. We’ve seen the water higher than this, but it’s pretty full now,” says Cook of the 1021-ft. water level.

Norris is considered at “full pool” at the 1020 line.

“I remember when there was a stage with live music every summer weekend and there was nothing built anywhere around except for that house on the curve way up the hill on the way in,” says Cook, as he remembers the home of his old fishing cohort, Charlie Proffitt.

From page A-1 The house Charlie shared with his wife, Laura, and their daughter, Grace, is gone now. In the mid-80s, I covered a story about Charlie and Laura celebrating their eightieth wedding anniversary.

Noah, as Hickory Star’s manager, is a member of the Union County Chamber of Commerce tourism committee.

Chamber president Julie Graham says of Justin Noah, “What a great asset to Hickory Star and to this community. His experience with social media combined with his commitment to the area, the lake and tourism efforts are invaluable to the county.”

The new website for Hickory Star is an informative, open invitation to all, with gorgeous photos, interactive forms and fishing tips. It also contains a complete copy of the Norris Lake Vacation Guide, which features every marina on the lake.

“We all work together.

I don’t consider the other Norris Lake marinas competition,” says Noah. “When one of us improves, we all benefit.

“We call each other when we need something, even when we end up sending a customer to another marina. It’s all about making Justin Noah, Hickory Star’s general manager, at the space being readied for the new grill on the people who come to Norris water, “Arjay’s.” Photo by Libby Morgan Lake happy.”

lic. Admission is $10 and tickets will be available at the gate, which opens at 6 p.m. for the 7 p.m. concert on the campus of Episcopal School of Knoxville, just off Lovell Road.

So what will the local crowds hear? “Expect some R&B, a little rock and roll and a country tune or two,” Chantelle says. “We’re looking forward to it as a celebration of the season, too – it’s our first chance to play outdoors this year.”

Chantelle’s musical roots also run deep. Her grandmother, 84, is receiving a Canadian music award this week for her body of work.

When her parents met, her dad was a drummer in what Chantelle calls “a hardcore rock and roll band.”

Her mother, Mavis, was a country singer. The two married and formed a new band and toured for several years.

“They have both helped me tremendously in my career,” Chantelle says.

And that career has blossomed in Nashville and around the world, where

Kendra Chantelle Chantelle and her band tour with the Armed Forces Entertainment organization, performing before the troops and their families far from home.

Last year they were on stage in Australia, Italy, Greece, Portugal, Turkey and Egypt, as well as across the United States. Chantelle says visits with the soldiers and their families have had a powerful impact.

“I love meeting the soldiers and their families and hearing their stories. We don’t stop often enough to think about what all they do

for us just so we can be free.

It is a wonderful opportunity to be with them.”

And while Chantelle says she hasn’t yet had the major breakthrough all performers dream of and only a handful achieve, she has had considerable success, including the release of her own album, “Unthinkable,” in 2011. It was produced by Blac Elvis Williams, who says of Chantelle: “She has no limitations vocally … she has so much soul it is amazing.”

Chantelle stays busy writing, touring and doing studio demos. Several of her songs have been put on hold for potential use in movies or TV programs.

She’s optimistic about the future, saying with a laugh, “Listen, anytime you hear of an ‘overnight success,’ I can tell you that night was really long.”

Hummin’, strummin’ and yummin’ Cookoff, a worldwide competition held in Lynchburg in the fall.

But don’t think this event is just about cooking. That’s the centerpiece, of course, but while the teams will bring their colorful caravans and all sorts of fancy rigs and cute costumes that in themselves provide a lot of entertainment, there will be plenty of opportunity for public participation, including a chance to judge the barbecue, to buy food and drink from on-site vendors, and maybe even to learn secrets from some of those barbecue experts.

LMU’s secret weapon Big changes are in store for Lincoln Memorial University’s Duncan School of Law, located in Knoxville’s Historic City Hall.

Sandra Clark

LMU president Dr. B. James Dawson announced this week the creation of a Center for Leadership and Community Advocacy at the law school.

He said offerings will be expanded to include courses in criminal justice and a certificate program in mediation pending approval by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools (SACS).

The law school will graduate its first class in May, a group of 80 students most of whom have attended classes while working full-time.

The law school was the brainchild of LMU board chair Pete DeBusk. It’s named for U.S. Rep. John J. “Jimmy” Duncan Jr., who served as a criminal court judge before his election to Congress.

The school hit a snag when it was rejected for ac-

creditation by the American Bar Association. DeBusk and the former dean sued the ABA. Now there’s a new dean in town and the process has begun anew. A site review committee toured the campus March 17-20, and interim Dean Parham Williams outlined the timetable last week.

The site committee will report by June 1 (Williams feels optimistic) and Duncan School of Law is on the ABA accreditation committee agenda on Oct. 31/Nov. 1.

“In early December, the full committee votes,” he said.

“I feel very positive about the future of this law school.”

Williams is pleasant and very smart. He was a prosecuting attorney for eight years and a law school dean for 36 more. He has chaired 13 ABA site teams and served on several more.

Williams certainly knows what it takes to gain accreditation. Meanwhile, he’s got a law school to run.

He is offering a new program this summer for folks who have been denied admission to other law schools.

“Standarized tests are not fair in every instance,” he explained, outlining an “alternative process to measure appitude.”

New at the Duncan School of Law Ed.D in Executive Leadership, designed for working professionals with a master’s or other advanced graduate degree in any discipline. Ideal for medical administrators, religious leaders, educators not seeking licensure and professionals in government or social agencies. Will include night and weekend classes.

Master’s in Community Agency Counseling (nonlicensure), is a generalist degree designed to serve professionals in human and social service agencies, as well as business and organizational settings.

Bachelor of Science in Criminal Justice – two tracks – one for students with little or no previous college; and a degree completion option for students with an associate in criminal justice.

The college is also pursuing: Master’s in criminal justice; a graduate concentration in conflict management (pending SACS approval); and a certification program in mediation (pending SACS approval).

So students who have a bachelor’s degree and have taken the law school entrance exam, the LSAT, may apply to take a class in evidence this summer.

The cost is zero, but credit won’t be earned.

“The students will be measured and tested on how they function in class. Those who succeed will be enrolled in the fall as regular law students.”

Williams said 24 law schools already have an admission through performance program, and all are ABA accredited. So he

doesn’t see the program as a hindrance to his accreditation goal.

“The best measure of any institution is its outcomes,” he said. The first class of graduates already have 51 percent placement in lawrelated fields following their passing the bar exam and obtaining a state license.

It’s hard to meet with Parham Williams without wanting to sign up for law school.

He’s obviously the right man in the right place at the right time.

Now, how to get him to quit talking ...

Tragically – as these Saturday night stories were told – this whole family was wiped out by the flu epidemic of 1918-19. This doesn’t seem to be true, since Henry and Minnie died in 1923; and I found other Mendenhall death records from 1917 to 1923.

Maybe their deaths were flu-related, just over a longer period.

I’m told birch wood will catch fire even when wet.

Native Americans used the outer bark of the birch to cover their wigwams. We know there were Native Americans in this vicinity by early history and by the artifacts found here such as arrowheads and stone axes.

The late Amos and Irene Crisp Hensley owned a cottage and spent their summers there. The property has been passed down and remains in the Hensley family.

Two incidents are little bugs in the recruiting soup. Tennessee people have stopped worrying about it but outsiders are still stirring and stirring the brew: Why, oh why, did ex-Vol Jay Graham flee the scene for Florida State?

There is no good answer.

Why he said, if he said, old, white, bald-headed coaches can’t relate to the modern athlete is another puzzler.

Why he said, if he said, that the new Tennessee

staff was unfamiliar with kill-or-be-killed recruiting in the Southeastern Conference remains a minor irritant. Only dumbdumbs would see it as anything less than war.

Tennessee, indeed, has some coaches with my kind of hairstyle. John Jancek, Steve Stripling, Willie Martinez, Mike Bajakian and Dave Lawson come to mind. They are some shade of white but not old enough to be called ancient. They appear to be good guys but I do believe they are plenty tough enough.

Deeper in the background is another curiosity, J.R. Sandlin, a bright, young idea man hired away from Alabama in December to be office director of Tennessee recruiting. He vanished in March. Coach Jones said “J.R. has moved on and is no longer part of the program.”

in public school, however; I believe firmly that is the province of the home and the church!)

All of this is whirling in my mind because, on a recent Sunday, my husbandCross to-be was listening careCurrents fully to the sermon. Lewis’ Lynn mind is always in gear, and Hutton he wrote a quick note to me (I know, passing notes in church is what teenagers do, but we feel a little like teenagers these days!), a note which became the a way to express devotion title of today’s column. to Scripture.

I am also self-revelation to us, God’s old enough to remember when we learned and recited bible verses in public school, and were rewarded with small treasures. Memorizing a whole chapter from the Gospel of John earned me a New Testament, which I still have. (I do not advocate for Biblical instruction

love letter to the world, God’s claim on God’s creation: it is, in short, God’s owner’s manual. We should be thankful for it, honor it, study it and live by it!

God created us, and then – early on – gave us a few rules. Since that time, through Scripture, God has revealed God’s nature and purpose and will and desire for our love and obedience over and over again.

God’s Word tells us Who God is, who we are and what it is God wants from us. “And what is that?” you may ask.

The answer is quite simple.

Relationship.

Recruiting is football heartbeat More than once you may have heard that recruiting is the lifeblood of Tennessee football.

Butch Jones and his people are on the case.

Their start is encouraging. There is a catch: They still must identify and sign more and better players than Alabama, Georgia, Florida, South Carolina and opponents of that ilk if they hope to whip them on the field.

Learning all the plays, giving great effort, eliminating errors and playing fast may point a team toward progress. Sharp strategy helps but competing for championships requires talent.

There is an old horsebarn saying that you don’t win the Derby with a don-

Marvin West

key. That translates into “only thoroughbreds win the great Kentucky race.”

There is another horse saying: It costs much the same to feed and house winners and losers. That doesn’t need translation.

In football, separating potential winners from losers at age 17 is the trick.

Jalen Hurd and Todd Kelly were obvious. Correctly evaluating a hundred others is the next best step toward restoration of the

Volunteers. Speed is measured with stop watches.

Weight rooms reveal a lot about strength. Camps are insightful. Very careful study of game video provides clues about agility, explosion and even will to win.

Individual visits with prospects, parents, coaches, teachers, friends and the high school janitor generally yield information. The process is tedious and takes time.

The really hard part in evaluation is reading tea leaves and crystal balls, peering around the corner, two or three years into the future, and guessing about growth and development.

After getting all the components of the first part correct, next are the

God’s owner’s manual Blessed are you, O Lord; Teach me your statutes.

With my lips I declare All the ordinances of your mouth.

I delight in the way of your decrees As much as in all riches.

I will meditate on your precepts, And fix my eyes on your ways.

I will delight in your statutes; I will not forget your word.

(Psalm 119:12-16 NRSV) Psalm 119 is unique in the Bible. It is the longest chapter in Scripture, to be sure, but that is not its claim to fame.

It is made up of 22 stanzas (most modern versions of the Bible print it that way, with spaces between the stanzas), and in Hebrew it is an alphabetical acrostic, a fact which is not apparent at all in English. Every line of

the first stanza begins with an alef, the first letter of the Hebrew alphabet; every line of the second stanza begins with the second letter, bet, and so on.

Such a device could appear to be simply linguistic acrobatics, or an aid to memorization, but there is another theory that scholars put forth. Some authorities maintain that it is

NIGHT OF GOSPEL SINGING

Hmm. Did J.R. get homesick for Tuscaloosa? Did he wear his religion too low on his sleeves? Did he rub somebody the wrong way?

Who made which mistake?

Exactly what happened?

Neither Graham nor Sandlin nor the “baldheaded white guys” putdown matter one snip in the overall recruiting picture if Tennessee evaluates correctly, builds warm, dependable relationships, conveys the impressive family plan and signs fourand five-star studs that do well in academics, represent the university with dignity and earn all-America honors.

The Jones gang is off to a fine start. Perhaps I overestimate the difficulty of recruiting. No way do I exaggerate the importance.

The sun was shining. The birds were chirping.

The flowers were blossoming.

The pollen Fr. Aaron Wessman was flying.

And my nose was running.

All of this told me that it was time for gardening.

I could almost taste the fresh tomatoes, green bell peppers, and flavorful onions. But first I had to get them planted.

Standing over my garden, I placed the tip of the shovel in the ground. I stepped my foot down on the shovel… and nothing happened.

Dumbfounded, I moved the shovel and tried again: nothing. In shock, I tried a third time: still no luck.

Perplexed, I soon recalled the words to that famous Tennessee song: “Good ole Rocky Top, Rocky Top Tennessee.” I realized that the beauty of Good Ole Rocky Top might make for some tough gardening!

Jesus is often described as a type of gardener (Mt. 13: 1-23). He sows the seed of the Word freely hoping that it will take root in good soil.

The soil, of course, is our own heart. If our heart is

open to accept the Word of God then we will be able to bear the fruits of peace, joy, love, and faith. The problem is that sometimes our heart is a lot like the soil where I was trying to plant my garden: it is hardened and calloused just like rock.

We shouldn’t fret, however, if our hearts have hardened over the years. God promises to create in us a new heart.

We read in Ezekiel: “I will give you a new heart, and a new spirit within you. I will remove your heart of stone from your flesh and give you a heart of flesh (36:26).”

If our hearts have hardened and we desire something new, all we have to do is ask God for His help. The best way to do that is by saying a little prayer: God of all creation: let your grace soften my heart like the rains on the dry, hardened ground, that I may once again receive your Word. In Jesus’ name, amen.

May the gardens of our heart bear much fruit this season.

Vertigo Chiropractic Outlook

By Dr. Darrell Johnson, DC Vertigo is the disconcerting condition in which a person feels as though his environment is moving or spinning around him. Incidents can range from momentary periods of dizziness or light-headedness to more severe cases that can cause disorientation, loss of balance and nausea. While an inner ear problem is a common cause of vertigo, the condition can also develop after a trauma, like a fall or a jarring car crash.

Whiplash, that violent whipping of the head and neck that frequently occurs in a car accident, is a common cause of vertigo.

For at least some people who suffer from vertigo, chiropractic treatment has been effective in either easing or eliminating the condition. Research has found that a misalignment in the upper cervical spine can be the source of the problem. In one study of 60 patients suffering from some degree of vertigo, 56 of the subjects recalled a traumatic incident in their past. Diagnostic examinations showed that all 60 had some sort of misalignment of the spine. Each patient received appropriate chiropractic treatment for one to six months.After treatment, 48 of the 60 were free of symptoms. The other 12 had less severe or less frequent bouts of vertigo. At your next regular visit ask your chiropractor about the condition and how chiropractic treatment can help.

Brent Hugh Painter, son of Joe Painter of Maynardville, TN & Bertha Painter also of Maynardville, TN & Tonya Mae Mashburn, daughter of Wayne & Lillie Bailey of Ewing, Virginia & Harold Jr. Mashburn of Maynardville, TN. Wedding will be held on May 12, 2013 at 3:00pm at Big Ridge State Park Lodge.

just for that very purpose.

Actually, they don’t seem to like dogs of any sort – wild or domesticated.

In Brandi’s case, she ended up with a couple of mini-mules. (Since mules are the result of a romantic encounter between a female horse and a male donkey, she figured that was close enough.) A friend was able to hook the Davises up with a jack named Harley and a jenny named Precious.

So far, Harley and Precious seem a bit cowed (ouch), not by the cattle, but by the space. They’d come from a small farm, and now they have five acres and their own barn.

Brandi, meanwhile, is learning the ins and outs of mule ownership. She’s been plying them with horse treats from Tractor Supply, and they’re warming up to her.

Harley has taken to braying when he spots Brandi coming. (All power to the woman with the treats.) They both enjoy a friendly pat on the head.

Everyone is settling in.

And the coyotes are staying away.
