Constructing to resume on 33 bridge By Marvin West Different bridge builders are coming to Union County. Very heavy equipment is supposedly en route. Soon construction will resume on the Highway 33 bridge over Norris Lake. So says Mark Nagi of the Tennessee Department of Transportation. The original $20-million project, announced by local politicians on Sept. 11, 2009, became a construction disaster two and a half years later when engineers belatedly discovered flaws in the bedrock. Everything stopped for a redesign of bridge footings.

The 2000-feet bridge, once deemed a tragedy waiting to happen, is a really big deal, the most exciting part of the primary route from Middlesboro, Harrogate, Claiborne County and Sharps Chapel to Maynardville and Knoxville. It is heavily traveled. Kay and Kay Contracting of London, Ky., won the revised project in February with a bid of $18,310,000. The company is about to begin to start to do something. “The contractor is in the process of mobilizing a great amount of equipment to the
site to begin work on the drilled shafts,” said Nagi. “The drilling should begin by the first of August and if all goes according to schedule, drilling operations should be completed by the end of the year.” Target date for completion of the new bridge is Aug. 31, 2014. Sometime after that, the old bridge will be removed. It was built in 1936 in preparation for TVA closing the gates on Norris Dam to f lood the Clinch River basin. Replacing that old bridge had long been on the state draw-
ing board. Britton Bridge and Mountain States Contractors won that project, graded new highway approaches and built four giant pillars. They have stood since 2012 as silent sentinels to the change in plans. The state says Britton and Mountain States were paid and relieved of their obligations. Different conditions required different plans and construction methods. Kay and Kay has done rockslide repairs for TDOT and is currently building an I-75 interchange in Kentucky.
Music jam to honor Billy Joe Nicely By Mitzi Wood-Von Mizener Narrow Ridge invites our friends and neighbors to join us for a night of live music in celebration and remembrance of the life of Billy Joe Nicely from 7-10 p.m. Saturday, July 27, at our outdoor stage just up the road from the Mac Smith Resource Center at 1936 Liberty Hill Road. Guests are invited to share their talents in a forum that provides equal time to all who wish to participate. We are hopeful that friends will share stories and songs that are inspired by the memory of Billy Joe. He was always a highlight of our music gatherings and will be dearly missed by all of us at Narrow Ridge. Guests will be given the opportunity to make donations to the Nicely family for medical and Union County musicians: the late John Henry Thomas, Burl Wynn, Ashley Malone and the late Billy Joe Nicely. funeral expenses.

By Sandra Clark Wow! Where did the summer go? Teachers and kids return to school this week with some new faces at the helm and a renewed sense of excitement. Dr. Jimmy Carter has served twice as interim director of schools, but now it’s his show to run and he’s acting like the man in charge. In a lengthy interview last week, Carter said everyone will benefit from clear direction and leadership. The chief challenge this year is implementation of the Common Core, a rigorous standard of academic goals for which students across the state and nation will be tested. (Learn more at www. corestandards.org/) As a supervisor, Carter has attended training on the Common Core. “We know what the standards are, but we must now determine how that looks in a classroom,” he said. As an example, reading has been taught primarily by reading fiction. Now reading will be 80 to 85 percent non-fiction, historical or real-life, and students will be expected to write on the content, Carter said. “It’s not Jack and Jill went up the hill.”

‘Like a child at Christmas’ It was just what the doctor ordered. If you’ll forgive a quick personal note, the past few weeks haven’t been the greatest in the world. My grandmother passed away July 6. And, last weekend, I began to experience some of the worst lower back pain I’ve ever had in my life. Turns out I have sciatica. Go ahead and insert an old man joke here if you want. Anyway, the interns wrapped up their summer stay at the Shopper last week. Sara Barrett called to tell me the last stop on the tour was going to be Ciderville Music Barn on Clinton Highway. David West was going to pick a little and tell stories about Cas Walker. Sammy “Barney Fife� Sawyer and Bo “Briscoe Darling� Pierce were stopping by with the Mayberry squad car. “You’ll love it!� Sara said. So I hobbled over to Ciderville. And, boy howdy, did we have a good time. Sammy did his pitchperfect Barney Fife. We reenacted the scene from the Griffith Show’s “Barney and the Choir� episode, in which Andy tells Barney he’ll be singing solo during “good ol’ 14-A� from a high-powered microphone and needs to sing really quietly. (What Barney doesn’t know, of course, is that Andy has recruited a bass singer to stand behind the curtain to do the actual singing for tone-deaf Barney.) As you may know, David West played in Cas Walker’s band for years. He told Cas stories, the kind of stuff even the most imaginative writer couldn’t make up. David pulled out his banjo and led us in a sin-
Jake Mabe MY TWO CENTS galong to the “Cas Walker Farm and Home Hour� theme. I jumped into Cas’ routine about security in his supermarkets’ parking lots. (Look it up on YouTube.) Then David rattled off some of the famous names who got their start on Cas’ show: Dolly Parton, The Everly Brothers, others. “Hey,� I asked, “did Carl Butler ever sing on Cas’ show?� “Oh, yeah,� David said. “Well, why don’t we sing a little bit of ‘Don’t Let Me Cross Over’ then?� Guess who got all excited and sang lead? I got to worrying the interns (who are all of highschool age) might have thought they had landed on Mars, but they seemed to like the music. As we were pickin’ and grinnin,’ I looked around the room. Sammy was tapping his leg, just like Barney used to do. Bo Pierce was blowing into his jug. David was playing that banjo like only he can. I grinned from ear to ear. “You were like a child at Christmas,� somebody said later. Just what the doctor ordered.

2, and runs until 11:59 p.m. Sunday, Aug. 4. It offers three days of shopping for several things without having to pay sales tax. With the exception of computers, eligible items must have a price tag of less than $100. Buyers can forget about trying to get a clerk to ring up a more expensive pair of shoes as two separate purchases. It has already been tried and is not permitted. And while the holiday is intended to help parents save money on clothing and other items their children need for school, purchases aren’t limited to schoolrelated items and shoppers don’t have to have school children to save money. If an item is exempt, anyone can buy it. As an example, any shopper can purchase a desktop, laptop or tablet computer at up to $1,500 in price without paying sales tax, as long as the item is not for use in a trade or business. Personal digital assistants (PDAs) and electronic readers, such as the Kindle and Nook, aren’t eligible for the tax break, and neither are keyboards, software and other items that do not come pre-packaged with the computer. Computer printers and printer supplies, such as paper and ink, aren’t eligible. Any article of clothing and anything that is considered school supplies (including art supplies) is eligible for the tax break, no matter who buys it or who will be using it, as long as each individual item costs less than $100. Sales tax must still be paid on such things as jewelry and handbags and sports equipment, even if that equipment will be used as part of a school activity.

School starts went to each school. The teachers were given the option to transfer or stay, and that worked out so that no one had a forced assignment. “There was no effort to select the best students or the best teachers for one school or the other,� Carter said. “So why then are the test scores improving at Paulette and stagnant at Maynardville?
From page 1 “I told Lisa to get with (Paulette principal) Jason Bailey to see what he’s doing with scheduling and teacher placement. We should have two equal schools.� Lisa Carter has benefited from being the principal/teacher at the Elementary Middle Alternative Center where she was trained in the overall curriculum, he said.
“There are good teachers (at Maynardville Elementary) and her ability to lead people is strong. Her passion is toward success. She’s a coach. She wants to win.� Jimmy Carter and Union County Public Schools start this new year with high hopes and serious responsibilities. Every citizen should wish them the best.

Graham gives Chamber update While the Union County Chamber interviews potential leaders, the former president and current board member, Julie Graham, sent a newsletter to members. “Although the board meeting was not held in July, the Chamber has been busy with multiple projects including planning for the 2014 tourism marketing strategy, multiple grant applications and grant projects and continued support of our businesses,” Graham wrote. Press releases: Beginning in February 2013, two press releases have been sent out by the Chamber each month using a media subscription service. In June, one of these stories, “Retirees Loving Life on Lake Norris,” was picked up by over 160 media services and has been read by over 48,000 visitors. Another media story for Maynardville was published in Everything Knoxville titled “Finding Maynardville.” Upcoming Training: TOSHA/ Worker’s Comp training sessions for the 2013 Reform Act Implementation are scheduled across the state beginning July 25. Local sessions are scheduled from 9 a.m. to noon Thursdays, Aug. 22, at the UT Conference Center in Knoxville, and Aug. 29 in Morristown. Info: 992-2811. Select Tennessee training for local planning commissions is being hosted by ETTD. This program will feature speakers Gary Human, ECD, and Chris Thompson, of the Tennessee Department of Environment and Conservation, who will discuss how planners can assist with local economic development in their communities by considering aspects of property evaluation for industrial development.
Both Gary and Chris will discuss what search teams look for in sites, how to mitigate risks by selecting a quality site and how to calculate the costs of a site versus the potential return on investment. This session is free and will be offered July 29 at the Jefferson City Fire Hall from 6-8 p.m. and July 30 at Rural/Metro Training Center in Hardin Valley from 6-9 p.m. Roads: TDOT Commissioner John Schroer was in Knoxville on July 17 and was asked about the status of 33 Bridge. According to officials, the construction equipment is being placed on-site and construction should begin the first week of August. Additional questions about the status of the safety grant and of the completion of widening of SR33 to the county line were also asked. Grants: Congratulations to the Luttrell Bluegrass Festival and Mayme Taylor. The festival was awarded grants by both the Tennessee Arts Commission and by East Tennessee Foundation to help support this community festival. This is a highly competitive process and the Chamber recognizes the work of the festival committee. Work continues on the “Park Ranger” mobile app grant project at Big Ridge. O’Neill Bergeron has hiked most of the trails and will upload data to the state for review. The Norris Lake Stakeholders grant project will conclude with a workshop scheduled for Sept. 12 at Norris Dam State Park Tea Room. Final review of signage for the public boat
launches is underway and the group anticipates that each county will be eligible for additional signs. The Chamber has received a Rural Business enterprise grant by USDA Rural to purchase wayfaring signs for the city of Maynardville. This grant will be used to advance the economic opportunities for the Main Street project. The Smoky Mountains Area Workforce Board for Local Workforce Investment Area 2 (Tennessee) is seeking proposals from qualified agencies to provide approved services for youth under the Workforce Investment Act. The Smoky Mountains Workforce Area includes 10 counties: Claiborne, Cocke, Grainger, Greene, Jefferson, Hamblen, Hancock, Hawkins, Sevier and Union. A Request for Proposal (RFP) was included in the email. These documents also are available on the Walters State Community College (WSCC) Center for Workforce Development’s website: http://www.ws.edu/ cwd/plansandnotices.asp/. Education roundtables are underway to regionally discuss the needs of businesses for skilled workers and the opportunities to create training paths for both displaced workers and for graduating students. The first roundtable was hosted by Alcoa Inc. at its corporate headquarters in Blount County, and included business leaders, post-secondary institutions and education advocates. A second roundtable will be held for school superintendents, educational partners and funders. The 2013 Health Impact Assessment report has been released for the region. This project describes baseline conditions and projected impacts of future growth in the region on health.
Lord hollers ‘Whoa!’” One of her “young’uns” is getting his 33 Diner feet under him. Brandon McPhetridge has been cooking for Neubert for a few weeks, training under her watchful eye.
“He’s doing pretty good. I haven’t had to slap him around much lately,” she jokes. To which he says, “Yeah, she don’t hurt me too bad – she’s afraid I’d like it.”
And the bantering goes on while the sweet tea and coffee keeps on coming, the griddle stays hot, and the biscuits are fluffy inside, crispy outside, and oh so just right.

33 is 25 By Libby Morgan
Nearly 25 years ago, Sue Neubert and co-conspirator Vickie Beeler spotted a long-time small restaurant on Hwy. 33 in Maynardville and made it theirs. Back in the late ’80s, just after losing her lease on the Southern Grill on Broadway in North Knoxville, the self-described “hyper” Neubert wanted to jump right back into another comfort food-type diner, where she could practice her craft of serving up biscuits and gravy, pinto beans and cornbread, meatloaf and rolls, among lots more Southern-style goodness. That’s when she found the modest building where old-timers might remember Scottie’s Hamburgers. (That building was replaced with Quickey Mickey’s and became Shirley’s Kitchen at one point. That’s all ancient history now.) Every morning except Sunday, Neubert, her sister Ginger Click and Beeler’s niece Chelsea Wyrick can be found heating up the kitchen at 33 Diner before daybreak, serving up good food, fresh cooked fast, with smiles and jokes all around.
A vanity license plate from the early days of the diner is proudly displayed on the wall.
“I love my young’uns,” says Neubert, who has no children of her own, sometimes referring to those not that much younger than herself. “I’ve got more kids than I can name. Lots of ’em have been coming in here all their lives and I just love ’em all.” When asked about her secrets of success, she credits Ruth Mynatt, whom she worked for decades ago at Mynatt’s Restaurant in Halls, for teaching her a lot about the business. “And you just gotta pay attention to things. If it’s zero and snowing outside, I’m not hardly gonna see anybody come in here, so I don’t cook a pot of beans – they won’t get eaten. Otherwise, we cook a pot of beans every day. “I just treat people the way you want to be treated,” says Neubert in her matterof-fact style. And she proved it immediately after saying that when a hungry family came in the door just before closing time at 3 p.m. She and her “bunch” took it all in stride, fi xing them their food while cleaning up and shutting everything down. “Business has been pretty good. The year the high-
way was getting built was iffy – the road was blocked for a long time,” Neubert remembers. “I’ve got some who come in here every day, and lots of folks know our weekday lunch specials – they’ll show up on a Thursday if they like chicken livers, or Wednesday for barbecue ribs. We get vacationers who come back every year, and we’ve even got people from Farragut coming up regularly to eat. “Breakfast is what people come in for mostly,” she says. Pecan and apple pie is on the menu every day, along with country vegetables, country ham, and country fried steak – with gravy, of course. “We’ve got a pretty good little bunch in here working. I don’t have any problems with them because it’s my way or the highway – just kiddin.’ “We all want to work – that’s the thing. I like to stay busy. I like to fish, do metal detecting, and read, but there’s just so much of that you can do,” says Neubert. And how much longer does she think she’ll be running the diner? “Till the

When I think of Cedar Grove, I think of split communities or two distinct communities. First is the voting precinct in Hickory Valley which extends across the county line into Claiborne County. In the 1930s, a Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) Camp was established on Fall Creek – the north side of Hickory Valley Road and the south side of the Clinch River, now Norris Lake – and where Hickory Pointe subdivision has been built. A number of years ago there was an effort by Becky Munsey and others to preserve the CCC site and to allow visitors to enhe told me Lickskillet. Of joy a picnic there. For some course, I asked how that reason this did not happen. community got its name. To my knowledge, the land

The “older generation” that grew up here more often refers to the south side of upper Hickory Valley as Lickskillet and the north

is still owned by TVA and might be available sometime in the future. The county has built a convenience center and community center at the site of the old Cedar Grove Elementary School. Former students still meet for a school reunion there each year. Former county mayors Roy Carter and Gerald Simmons grew up there as well as William Gene Tharpe, who compiled several Union County histories. This community can also boast having an historic marker dedicated to Samuel Smith, who established an early school for black people in Union County. Then there’s the other Cedar Grove on up the highway. Some of the fondest memories I have of good eating was at Cedar Grove log restaurant. This was
the gathering place of both Union County people and others from Knox and surrounding counties who reserved space to celebrate their special occasions. The homemade rolls and country ham were the best of the best. The restaurant was very near the Cedar Grove Baptist Church and also the Cedar Grove Boat Dock that was a favorite fishing spot of Roy Acuff, Howard “Oswald” Kirby, Palmer “Bit” Rouse and dock owner Pete Sanders. There were many owners of the restaurant, but for a time Mr. Sanders owned the boat dock, the restaurant and the cottages. Well known in this community were the late Ida Cooke Winters and Ray Winters, who came to Union County with a CCC group. Their son is Raymond Winters M.D.
Family matters Jimmy Carter, 51, is Union County down to his toenails, and when he married Melissa Graves Carter he joined a family of educators. Family matters. Jimmy’s parents, Roy and Peggy Carter, now deceased, were fi xtures at the Courthouse where Roy served as County Clerk and later County Executive. Peggy worked in the clerk’s office with both Roy and his successor, Jim Houston. “Growing up, I can remember Dad would bring home tags for people who couldn’t get to the office before closing. “(Sheriff) Junior and Sharon Loy came to the house on a Saturday to get their marriage license. “It was instilled in us to have pride in the county that you serve,” Carter said. “To me, it’s not a job. This is my life. It consumes me. A teacher doesn’t walk away at 3:30 or 5 o’clock.”
Sandra Clark
So it really never occurred to Jimmy Carter to move away. “Maybe if my dad had been an accountant and had driven down to Knoxville every day,” he says. Carter graduated from college in December, a tough time to apply for a teaching position. Although he was certified for high school, the first job opening came in February at Luttrell Elementary. He applied, was hired and then scurried back to college for his elementary certification. He taught at the high school before coming to the central office, but his career has always been based in Union County.
Jimmy’s grandfather, Frank Carter, taught at a one-room schoolhouse in the county, and Jimmy met Melissa when both were teaching at the high school. Melissa Carter advanced through the ranks under previous superintendents, and she retired this year while wearing two hats. She was supervisor of adult education and also principal of the Alternative School. Melissa’s daughter Carmen Murphy is an assistant principal at Union County High School, and her daughter Ashley Fuller teaches physical education at Big Ridge and Sharps Chapel. “We’re a part of this community generations back,” says Jimmy. “I never hired any of these (relatives), but they are good educators. I’m glad they are here.” All of the grandkids attend or will attend Union County Public Schools.
Dr. Jimmy Carter’s family: (seated) Saylor, eighth grader at Horace Maynard Middle School; Cade, first grader at Big Ridge Elementary; Melissa and Jimmy Carter; Dawson, sixth grader at HMMS; (standing) Carmen and Roger Murphy, Ashley and Jason Fuller with son, Cooper; G.W. Rutherford with wife, Cheree.
Carter has a vested interest in making the school district the best it can be. Jimmy Carter is Union County. Were the office of superintendent still an elected position, he could have won it.
I’d rather have a superintendent whose grandpa taught here and whose grandkids attend school here. The alternative is somebody from someplace else. And we’ve seen where that got us.

deeds. Feel the passion. Pass catchers have long thought of Tennessee as Wide Receiver U. The hitters think linebackers are the body and soul of Big Orange tradition. Coach Jones, surprisingly aware of the past, could drop a few clues and cause Dillon Bates to wonder if or where he will fit among the all-time greats. The linebackers video has Al Wilson on the front cover. That is appropriate. He was a big-time winner, highly motivated, exciting leader, vicious tackler. Wilson, asked what it takes to be a linebacker, said, “You got to be a little bit crazy.” Frank Emanuel, all-SEC,
all-American, Hall of Fame, talks about the pride in having played at Tennessee, the thrill in running through the T, the importance of 1965 in the Doug Dickey restoration. Emanuel said UCLA in Memphis and the dogfights with Alabama were his favorite games. Paul Naumoff contributes a vivid description of one of most memorable hits in Tennessee football history, the head-on collision with Larry Csonka, fourth quarter near the 1966 Gator Bowl goal. Naumoff won that one. He said Csonka more than got even in the NFL. Kiner, twice SEC defensive player of the year, provides perspective on the
Tennessee-Alabama rivalry. “Beating Bear Bryant was like winning the national championship.” Raynoch Thompson shares insight regarding the coaching of defensive coordinator John Chavis. Keith DeLong, Kelly Ziegler and Nick Reviez are great at explaining what it takes and what it means to excel in the SEC. Ziegler’s eyes danced as he recalled the 1985 Sugar Vols, Ken Donahue’s game plan and the overwhelming upset of Miami. Ziegler grew up in Miami. There is no interview with the reclusive Jack Reynolds but there are hits you can hear. There is great video of the late Tom Fisher in action against Auburn (1964), 28 tackles in one afternoon. Greg Jones makes a splash with 25 hits against
are others, however, which wander off into imagination and supposition. It was a huge undertaking, and quite well done, produced by Roma Downey (of “Touched by an Angel” fame). Some of it was hard to watch; there are harsh stories in the Bible, but some of it was delightful. I particularly liked the actor who played Jesus. It is one of the few portrayals of our Lord which made him seem equally human and divine. This Jesus smiled and laughed! There was one particular scene, however, that caught my fancy. The dialogue was not biblical, but it struck a chord with me. It reverberates in my head: a challenge,
a call, a command. Simon bar-Jonah (later to be known as Peter) was pushing off from the shoreline in his fishing boat. Jesus wades into the water, catches up to the little boat, and climbs in. Simon is nonplussed when Jesus says, “Come, Simon, and follow me.” “What are we going to do?” Peter asks, obviously thinking in the immediate short-term. Jesus looks at him intently, with a thoughtful expression in his eyes, and smiles. “Change the world,” he answers levelly. Simon looks at him – confused, interested, intrigued, bewildered. And that is exactly what
they did. All the world-changing work did not get done in the three years the little band of disciples spent together. But what Jesus and his followers started continues today. I saw it every day I worked at the Volunteer Ministry Center in Knoxville. I saw it in action just the other night at Vacation Bible School. I hear it (and feel its continuing call upon my life) every Sunday in worship. I see it in the kindness of strangers, in the laughter of children, in the enthusiasm of youth, in the calm, patient eyes of the aged. Sometimes we think there is no way we can change the world; there is
Is Bates a replica of Kiner?
When Dillon Bates committed to play 2014 Tennessee football, I thought of Steve Kiner. Rangy linebacker from Florida. Hitter with a big heart. Sideline to sideline speed. Exceptional coverage skills. Bright future. Kiner was about all you could ask of a Volunteer linebacker, tough on Alabama, all-Southeastern Conference, all-American, College Football Hall of Fame. Bates is one of the best prep prospects in the country. He may grow up to be awesome. That he chose the Vols was no surprise. His dad, Bill, was a Tennessee safety. His mom, Denise, was a
Marvin West
Tennessee cheerleader. He has relatives in Farragut. That is roots. Recruiting Dillon was a personal project of Butch Jones. That young Bates earned the attention of the boss should tell you all you need to know. The Vol Network was a factor. The linebackers video in the Leaders series is a powerful recruiting tool. Hear the words. See the
The call
Once while Jesus was standing beside the lake of Gennesaret…he saw two boats there at the shore of the lake; the fishermen had gone out of them and were washing their nets. He got into one of the boats, the one belonging to Simon, and asked him to put out a little way from the shore. Then he sat down and taught the crowds from the boat. (Luke 5: 1a-3 NRSV)

Best days by Craig Puki and LeMont Holt-Jeffers are on display. A visit with Dale Jones is among the video highlights. He talked about the Mike Shula swing pass he batted and intercepted. He talked about the blitz package used against Vinny Testaverde. He said it was an incredible experience to play for Tennessee. It is entirely possible that Coach Jones told Dillon Bates about some of this linebacker stuff. It’s a great sales pitch.
no way we can make a difference. But I assure you that someone is always watching you, and you are making a difference – for good or ill. Jesus the Christ calls each of us to do or to be something. Most likely something beyond what we think we can manage. Or what we know how to be or do. Or what we have the impetus to do, or the energy to do, or the expertise to do. Jesus calls us anyhow. He calls us to do something in our own little arena, or in some place we haven’t even heard of yet, half a world away. He calls us to do something. Something like changing the world!

Come to the water Driving down I-75 south towards Knoxville you can’t miss them. They are two massive billboards saying the same thing: “IT’S ALL ABOUT Fr. Aaron Wessman YOU!” Each time I read these signs I say to myself: “Now this is very enticing. It’s all about me! Ahhhh, glorious me! It’s all about me. Wonderful, for isn’t that the way it should be?” And yet as I snap out of my self-centered euphoria I realize how awkward and wrong those billboards are. For as enticing as it might seem, when life becomes all about ourselves, we are in for bad news. Each of us has experienced the falsity of those signs. Someone is selfish, choosing to leave his family for greener pastures, and the plans fall apart and all is lost. Someone is greedy, deciding to take just a little money off of the top, and jail time waits. Someone is attention seeking, spreading small pieces of gossip to gain popularity, and friends begin to disappear. We can all think of times where “It’s all about me” seemed like
a good idea. But in the end, we found ourselves alone, in trouble, and unhappy. There is hope though. In Jesus we find a different way of looking at life. For countless examples are given where Jesus says he came not to live for himself, but for God and for others. One striking example of this is when just before he is handed over to death he prays to God, “Father, if you are willing, take this cup [his crucifixion] away from me; still, not my will but yours be done (Luke 22: 42).” Even to the point of death, Jesus was not thinking about himself. He was thinking about God and others. His selflessness would require a lot from him. But in the end he, along with the world, would be transformed. Because of his selflessness we have the chance for eternal life. Sure, it is tough to live for God and for others. It will take us all time. But hopefully one day both our lives and those billboards on I-75 will read “IT’S ALL ABOUT GOD!” Fr.

Steak and potatoes field day By Shannon Perrin UT AgResearch plans a “steak and potatoes” field day Tuesday, Aug. 6, in Crossville. The event will appeal to cattle producers, landowners, commercial fruit and vegetable growers and home gardeners. The free event will showcase the research and outreach activities at UT’s Plateau AgResearch and Education Center on Highway 70N. It opens with a trade show at 8 a.m. CDT at the center’s main unit. Tours and seminars begin at 8:30 and lunch will be served at 11:30. As in previous years, UT researchers and Extension experts will present a set of talks and demonstrations that will appeal to three groups of visitors: those interested in improved beef production, those interested in fruit and vegetable production and those interested in land management issues. The beef production presentations will highlight respiratory disease management, maintenance and calibration of sprayers and the outlook for beef cattle production as well as issues related to cattle reproduction. Although highlighted in the event’s traditional title, the field day’s fruit and vegetable production presentations will not feature potatoes. Instead, strawberry production using high tunnels will be among the featured topics as well as fruit production, irrigation, invasive insects and management of early blight. Landowner discussions will feature updates on forest damage caused by invasive species and an examination of future hardwood pricing. A map to the facility and complete directions are available online at http://plateau.tennessee.edu/. Info: 931-484-0034.

Chiropractic Outlook By Dr. Darrell Johnson, DC
Firefighters spreading the safety message are Jimmy Falkner, Joey McBee, Justin Vallone, and Bradley Woods.
Save the cat! Douse the fire! Luttrell Library hosted a fire safety day through the Safe Kids of Greater Knoxville Program. There was a House Fire Obstacle Course where the children crawled through “smoke” to save the “cat” and put out the “fire,” complete with equipment, backpack and firefighter’s hats made by the children. Sketch, the puppet, shared stories of safety and a firefighter’s work. When the crises were over, frozen pops were shared and each child took home a fire safety packet.
Katie Johnson models her new firefighter hat.
Tiger Woods and many of his colleagues on the PGA tour are the beneficiaries of chiropractic treatment. And many of the players on the senior tour are also fans of chiropractic treatment, particularly to keep their backs pain-free and functioning properly. Whatever your sport, by the way, it’s worth investing some money in lessons from a pro to learn proper techniques. But even if you have mastered the stance and the swing, you’re likely to encounter occasional pain and injury from the sheer body torque demanded by many of those swings. And if you’re the typical weekend warrior who gets out to play 18 only on weekends, the swinging, walking and bending can be a recipe for serious lower back pain. Chiropractors specialize in treating the neuromusculoskeletal system. Some also specialize in sports medicine and can offer very specific suggestions to minimize your risk of injury and insure that you get the most enjoyment out of your golf game. The chiropractor can recommend, among other things, a regimen of stretching and warming up before your round so that you are not suddenly calling on cold muscles, tendons and ligaments to fly into action. Talk with your chiropractor about pre- and post-round steps you can take to keep your golf game sharp and fun.
