5The heart of the matter Family’s good spirits prove helpful in dealing with medical issues

PIGEON FORGE — Maybe it’s the weather creating a sunshiny attitude or it might just be a belief that, after months of predicting the end of the “great recession,” the economists are finally starting to look right.

Whatever it is, the key word among the attractions managers and tourism industry insiders who gathered for Thursday’s Area Attractions Luncheon is optimism. The word was illustrated in the comments of those who addressed the entire group with news from their respective attractions and

was on the lips of those talking about the outlook for coming months over plates of fried chicken and pot roast. “The last two years were really slow and 2010 has been slow so far except for one really good week at spring break,” Murder Mystery Dinner Theater owner Mike Moncrief bemoaned to

those at his table, though he sees light at the end of the tunnel. “From what I’m hearing, the hotel bookings are up and that’s good news for the attractions and the restaurants and everybody else. If they’re staying here, they’re going to go out and do some things. I’m See tourism, Page A5

at one booth and stepped into the queue for another. Russ and Linda Fox are regulars at the festival. They don’t have long to go, since they live in town. “We love the Ribfest,” Russ Fox said. “We’re here ever year.” They don’t try to pick out a favorite booth, his wife added. They just get in the shortest line and hope they can make it around the circuit. “You just get in whatever line you can, that’s the secret,” she said. In addition to sampling ribs and wings from all over the area, people could enjoy music and events throughout the evening. The city closed the Parkway for the block party.

PIGEON FORGE — With a month remaining until the American Cancer Society’s Relay For Life of Sevier County event, organizers are pleased with results so far but aware much more is needed to reach their $340,000 goal to help in the fight against cancer. So far, $77,965.82 has been raised by local teams. Relay For Life will be held from 2 p.m. May 21 to 2 p.m. May 22 at Patriot Park, with the themes for the year including celebrating more birthdays and 25 years of hope. To date, 58 teams have signed on to participate in the annual event, including 20 new teams. “That’s just unheard of,” said Team Development co-chair Teri Newman during Relay For Life’s monthly team captain’s meeting on Tuesday. Around seven new teams is the average, she said. “It’s wonderful.” Getting more people involved in Relay is always one of the goals for event organizers, especially in regards to survivors and caregivers of cancer patients. Toward that goal, the committee will host its third Survivor and Caregiver Brunch from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. May 8 at the First Baptist Church Family Life Center in Sevierville. This is a move from the Norma Dan Motel in Pigeon Forge. Alice Grady, co-chair of the survivorship committee, said the move was in hopes of getting more participants to come out who may not have wanted to deal with weekend traffic on the Parkway in Pigeon Forge. Grady said she would like to see at least 150 survivors and caregivers at the brunch. Those who would like to attend need to RSVP by May 3 by calling The Barn Owl at 428-0846. The event is free and guests will learn more about the American Cancer Society (ACS), Relay For Life and support groups and programs available in the area. One of the programs they may learn about is the Road to Recovery program. ACS Health Initiative Representative Jessica Neefe was on hand at Tuesday’s meeting to begin a search for volunteers who can drive patients to and from cancer treatments at the Thompson Cancer Center in

Ribfest & Wings Festival serves up mouth-watering food and good times By JEFF FARRELL Staff writer GATLINBURG — When you have a crowd of several thousand people who have been waiting for hours within sniffing distance of slowly cooking meat, the dinner bill is part celebration and part warning to not stand in the way. The feeding frenzy that highlights Gatlinburg’s Ribfest & Wings Festival started at 6 p.m. on Thursday with the ringing of a bell that signaled the chance for the hungry horde to start sampling the fare from several local restaurants as well as local organizations and city departments. The lines had been building for a while before that, and many people turned right from picking up ribs

Commission candidates respond to questions EDITOR’S NOTE: This is another in a series on candidates for the Sevier County Commission. These are candidates for District 7, Seat B. The same set of questions was sent by The Mountain Press to all candidates in contested races in the May 4 primary. Answers are published in their entirety. District 7 includes the north Sevierville/Catlettsburg area.

7th District, Seat B 1. What do you think the biggest issues facing the county will be in the next four years? DUANE DODGEN: How to provide the services our citizens need and want while keeping our taxes low. The economic slowdown and declining county revenues are a concern as well as bringing more jobs into the county. All the questions listed here could very well be inclusive as the answer to this question. TIM HURST: The biggest issues facing the county: I believe this would be having to face the demands of the county and of our citizens without taxes being raised and without having to make any cuts in educational funding, or any areas that would involve other county employees. KENNETH WHALEY: Jobs and the economy will have the largest impact on Sevier County. While tourism has held its own, this recession has made it hard on our construction and real estate industries. I believe it will take a number of years to return to the growth we saw in the ’90s. County government must hold the line on spending, yet use its resources wisely to attract new and better paying jobs to our area.

I would most definitely vote for the purchasing of industrial land. This would bring more job opportunities for our county’s citizens. KENNETH WHALEY: Sevier County has so much more to offer manufacturers and companies looking to expand or even new start-up industries. When Toyota chose Chattanooga over anywhere else in the country, they stated that they considered quality of life for employees and management as a key issue for their location. We have thousands of people that move to our area for those same reasons. We will have to provide the infrastructure and land that is not only zoned for such use but also favor their transportation need.

One specific challenge the county faces is accessibility. The additional lanes on Highway 66 will be a great asset for the transportation of goods to and from Sevier County and will create a vast improvement for industry as well as tourism. TIM HURST: I believe that marketing and advertising our county in other areas throughout the country would continue to bring more tourism and revenue to our county. I feel that we already do a great job at this and should continue to let families know about our county’s wonderful attractions. KENNETH WHALEY: There is a need for an industrial park which would attract new industries that would go a long way in creating year round employment for our residents. I also would like to see the feasibility of attracting sporting events to this area such as baseball, soccer, swimming and softball venues that have made other areas in the state successful.

County was faced with financial challenges in 2009. The department heads and elected officials tightened their purse strings, County employees went without a pay raise, and the County continued to run efficiently. The same policy should be followed this year as well. If you can’t afford it, do without it, as long as it does not affect the overall service to the taxpayer, the quality of education of our children, or the safety of employees. Most all households have been compelled to cut expenses to make ends meet, and the County should do the same. TIM HURST: I believe that we as a county are in pretty good shape overall. We are fortunate in the fact that we are a tourism area, and there are job opportunities out there. In comparison to some other counties in our state, I’d say we’re doing all right. KENNETH WHALEY:

4. Some counties in the state are facing financial challenges that may lead to cuts. What is your assessment of Sevier County’s financial situation? DUANE DODGEN: The

There is no way to sugar coat the fact that our state is facing at least four years of holding the line on a very strict budget. Sevier County is not immune from the cuts they may have to make. We have and will continue to balance our expenses with our income. Just as every family has had to do in this recession. All county departments must operate on tighter budgets, but greater consideration must be given to departments that impact our safety and security.

I worked for my brother, Lester Bohanan, for many years and he expected more from family than his other employees, and out of respect for him I worked harder and tried to do as much, if not more than the other employees. If you won’t work and do a good job for family I don’t think you would be a good employee for anyone.

Special Events Manager George Hawkins said it was worth it. “I just think it’s great to do things like this sometimes to bring the community together,� he said. With a perfect clear spring day, the festival couldn’t have gone much better, he said. “This is any event planner’s dream,� Hawkins said. “You’ve got the weather, the crowd, the vendors, the

optimistic about the rest of the year.� The hopeful attitude seems justified, though Moncrief’s own business’ experience in the first few months of 2010 may not bear that out. Indeed, several of those in the lodging business reported their room nights are up, though, as Sevierville Chamber of Commerce Marketing Coordinator Jim McGill points out, the beds aren’t getting filled the way they always have. “It’s really a different market than it used to be,� McGill explained. “Whereas you used to get people calling months in advance making those reservations, while we still have that, we’re getting more people now who are just showing up and finding a place to stay.� That can make it hard to gauge how things will look come July as local businesses stand on the precipice ready to dive into another tourism season. Still, that’s not necessarily bad news because the really important thing isn’t how they’re making their plans but that they’re making them at all. “I’m glad to see the traffic back because it means our visitors are back,� McGill said, with the optimism of a man who knows cars mean dollars in an area where the No. 1 and nearly only industry is tourism. “I think, as a general trend, it’s starting to pick back up now.� In part, McGill gives credit for that to what some are calling the “big three,� a trio of local attractions that recently opened their doors either for the first time, with new additions, or for a milestone year. The owners of Pigeon Forge’s new Titanic Museum Attraction have predicted millions of folks will come through their doors this year, while Ripley’s Aquarium of the Smokies General Manager Ryan DeSear is predicting a similar wave of visitors with the opening of the new penguin exhibit there. Likewise, Dollywood’s 25th anniversary celebration, which includes daily giveaways to random guests, will also likely prompt some people to plan their first trips to the area and others to turn their attention to a return venture to Sevier County. In addition to all that, there are some other silver linings that are offering encouraging signs the rainbow may not be hard to find. That’s appropriate image for one — that the Biblical rains of last year seem to have ebbed in 2010. That may not be great news for farmers, depending on how dry things get, but it’s a hopeful sign for attractions such as Dollywood, where officials

music — it’s great.� With the crowd at the festival, it was clear it didn’t just draw locals. Grady and Hilda Atkins were sitting down to enjoy some ribs. They’d driven down from Centerville, Tenn., in part to enjoy the festival. “We saw it on the Internet and we just thought it sounded fun,� Grady said. “We spent a couple of days hiking, too, and we came here.� n jfarrell@themountainpress.com

report numbers are already up over last year thanks to sunnier days. And the weather hasn’t just been kind to those who depend on it for encouraging folks to get out and enjoy a bit of spring this year. For the first time ever, the slopes at Ober Gatlinburg stayed open through the end of March, a credit to the cold weather and regular snowfalls the area experienced last winter. “It was by far the best winter we’ve had since I’ve been there, and I’ve been there 25 years,� Ober Gatlinburg Marketing Director Kathy Doyle told the gathering. Ironically, Doyle also gives credit to the rockslide that shutdown Interstate 40 at the state line, something that many in the tourism industry have griped about because it has made getting to the area from North Carolina much harder. On the other side of that coin, it also made getting to North Carolina much harder, a fact that likely encouraged more Tennesseans to check out the state’s only ski resort rather than make the trek over to the slopes of the Blue Ridge. On top of all that is the fact that a number of indicators suggest the economists really are starting to see the pall cast over the American economy for the last couple years beginning to flee. Perhaps most importantly to an area like Sevier County is the fact consumer confidence is on the rise, which could mean folks start once again looking to unclinch those fingers and spend a little money on a getaway. “I think most everybody has experienced a better start to the year than in the past couple years,� McGill said. “I think there’s a good, positive outlook.� n dhodges@themountainpress.com

Forecasters: Weekend weather will be stormy NASHVILLE (AP) — Weather forecasters across Tennessee caution there could be an outbreak of severe weather over the weekend. A strong upper level storm system is expected to move out of the southern plains on Friday, pushing thunderstorms into Tennessee. National Weather Service meteorologists say some could be severe, bringing thunderstorms with heavy downpours of rain, large hail, damaging winds and isolated tornadoes statewide. The NWS predicts West Tennessee could see storms develop as early as Friday afternoon, but a major outbreak of severe weather is forecast for Saturday. Middle Tennessee is likely to see severe weather during the day on Saturday. The major threat of severe weather in East Tennessee is late Saturday afternoon and Saturday night.

Palin defendant may have bragged KNOXVILLE (AP) — Federal prosecutors are using Facebook records to try to show jurors how the man charged with breaking into Sarah Palin’s e-mail bragged about it afterward. Prosecutors on Thursday showed copies of 22-year-old David Kernell’s Facebook activities after the September 2008 intrusion into Palin’s e-mail account just after she became the running mate of Republican presidential nominee John McCain.

Facebook security director Max Kelly told jurors that Facebook users are given a unique ID that is recorded and shows any action they take. Kernell in an online chat said he saw nothing incriminating in Palin’s e-mail. That was followed by a frowning face symbol. At the time news organizations were reporting that Palin, then governor of Alaska, had used the private account for state business.

TODAY’S FORECAST

LOCAL:

Kernell, a former economics major at the University of Tennessee, is on trial on charges of identity theft, wire fraud, intentionally accessing Palin’s e-mail account without authorization and obstructing an FBI investigation. If convicted, he could be sent to prison for up to 50 years. Benjamin James Reed, who knew Kernell while both were students, told the jury about a Facebook chat where the defendant seemed

remorseful after the e-mail break-in. Kernell used a vulgarity to describe himself as stupid and said “I feel empty inside,” Reed said. Under defense questioning, he said the FBI didn’t take his computer so the full context of the computer conversation wasn’t presented. Kernell’s mother, who is a military dentist in Honolulu, and sister have been in the courtroom with him this week.

Today’s highlight:

On April 23, 1910, former President Theodore Roosevelt delivered his famous “Man in the Arena” speech at the Sorbonne in Paris. In it, Roosevelt declared, “It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena.” n

On this date:

In 1969, Sirhan Sirhan was sentenced to death for assassinating New York Sen. Robert F. Kennedy. (The sentence was later reduced to life imprisonment.) In 1985, the CocaCola Co. announced it was changing the secret flavor formula for Coke (negative public reaction forced the company to resume selling the original version). n

Thought for today:

“Don’t pay any attention to the critics — don’t even ignore them.” — Samuel Goldwyn, American movie producer (1879-1974).

Tiger Woods

ORLANDO — Though Tiger Woods was reportedly hoping to mend fences with his wife Elin after his sex scandal fractured t h e i r m a r riage, it looks like divorce is par for this course. A Woods source c l o s e to the family tells Us Weekly, “It’s 100 percent happening ... It’s going to take a long time to go through. [But] she will go through with it. She is all about being a mom. She will do it slowly and carefully.”

Moral crisis staring U.S. in the face

In this country, you are innocent until proven guilty. OK, so Bernie Madoff is a criminal. But a lot of other people on Wall Street and beyond are only crooks — so far. For some of us of a certain age, sitting down with the Sunday newspaper is a relaxing habit that will not be replaced by digital reality. But last weekend the papers provided little but heartburn. And heartache, too. Whatever happened to honesty? Decency? Trust? Goldman Sachs, the crown jewel of Wall Street, is charged in a civil fraud suit brought by the Securities and Exchange Commission with deliberately and dishonestly luring its clients into a gigantic scam. “Looting” is the term used by Paul Krugman, The New York Times economics columnist. Though the principals of the company call the charges “completely unfounded in law and fact,” there seems little reasonable doubt that Goldman Sachs did promote and sell paper to its customers when it knew the stuff was worthless. In fact, it seems that the buckets of aptly named “synthetic collateralized debt obligations” were nothing more than stacks of subprime mortgages on their way to foreclosure. And Goldman Sachs and a few valued clients had chosen those mortgages because they were sure to fail, then the banking house secretly created other paper betting on that failure. If the above is not gracefully explained it is because I, like most Americans, don’t understand it all. But I can smell. And this stuff stunk. Even so, there’s a sucker born every minute, and the smelly paper ended up in the hands of misled pension funds and foreign banks, which lost billions of dollars in the process. Reading and moving right along, it turns out that the federal government has indicted five former executives of Xe Services (the guns-for-hire company formerly known as Blackwater) for illegally purchasing automatic weapons and then filing false documents on the purchases to the government. Below that, in smaller type, was a story about a town down the road from here, San Jacinto in Riverside County. State prosecutors have charged four of the five members of the city council with 56 felonies and 99 misdemeanors, including money laundering, bribery, fraud, perjury, conspiracy and filing false documents. All four of those charged have ignored demands that they resign from their elected offices. They may be headed toward prison sentences of up to 25 years, but they are still innocent (and powerful) until proven guilty. Leaving San Jacinto to its problems, the Goldman Sachs and Xe cases indicate, at least to me, that our country is in real trouble at home. We’re surrounded by crooks, and there is very little we can do as individuals. News media, old and new, can bring some of these cases to light. But as we all know, a lot of people don’t trust the press in any of its manifestations. And even if the press is suspect, it can only shout that the emperors of Wall Street and private armies have no clothes. Government has to take care of the rest. It’s government that has cops and prosecutors charged with going after the crooks. Because of nasty stories like these, increased government regulation of the finance industry and crooks in general is the issue of the day. Only government has the power to break open industries and corporations to let the rest of us see what has happened to America. But, in poll results released over the weekend, the Pew Research Center reports that only 22 percent of Americans trust the government “almost always or most of the time.” That’s about the lowest rating since polls began. It seems then that we are between a rock and a hard place. Wall Street and other prosperous venues are going to fight like hell — well-financed hell — to prevent the rest of us from finding out what they are doing to us. Millions of Americans are already in trouble because of greed and lying across the country — and there is going to be more if these folks are allowed to continue. Whose fault is all this? Well, the scapegoating is well under way. But perhaps we are looking the wrong way. This could be called a financial crisis or a political crisis, but it is more than that. The United States is facing a moral crisis. And the most critical and disturbing question is this: Are we a nation of crooks? — Richard Reeves, a presidential scholar and expert on six presidents, is the author of several books, including profiles of Richard Nixon and John Kennedy.

Editorial

And justice for all? Execution date being set for Gaile Owens likely to create firestorm They are the last six words of the Pledge of Allegiance and encompass two of the bedrocks upon which our nation is built upon: “ ... with liberty and justice for all.” On Monday the state Supreme Court ratcheted up an issue that stirs passions to a fever pitch rarely reached: the death penalty. The issue will be intensified because the person the high court ordered to be executed on Sept. 28 is a woman, Gaile Owens. If put to death, Owens would become only the 12th woman executed in the United States since 1976 and the first in Tennessee since 1820. It brings into question the very idea of “justice for all.” Is her punishment fair? According to various Web sites, Owens is one of only two women on death row in Tennessee — the other is Christa Pike of Knoxville — and one of only 53 nationally. At last count, there were 92 men on Tennessee’s death row and approximately 3,300 in the nation. Proponents and opponents rarely budge on their arguments. “An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth!” proponents say, citing the Bible. These heinous criminals deserve to die, they

reason, so that the victims’ families can get closure. Opponents question the government’s right to capriciously take another human’s life. More than once has an innocent person been sent to their death. It’s cruel and unusual punishment, they say. Capital punishment is discriminatory, some argue, in that minorities are more likely than whites to receive the death penalty for similar crimes. Owens was convicted in 1986 of contracting with a Memphis man to kill her husband. The cases were conjoined and Owens had accepted a plea bargain of guilty that would have sent her to prison for life. The hit man, Sidney Porterfield, was also required to plead guilty for the same punishment, but refused. Both were later found guilty in a trial and sentenced to death. Porterfield remains on death row. A question that arises: Should a person who commits a lesser crime be given the same punishment as someone who, at least on the surface, has done something much more heinous? Just last week, Tennessee executed Cecil Johnson Jr., convicted

of three murders during a robbery at a Nashville market in 1980. Does what Owens did rise to the level of what Johnson did? Similarly, it has since come to light that Owens was a battered woman. In 2006, Mary Winkler of Selmer, also a battered woman, was convicted of shooting her minister husband to death. But Winkler, who actually killed her husband, was convicted of the lesser charge of voluntary manslaughter, received a relatively short prison sentence and has regained custody of her children. Does Owens’ crime rise to that level? Owens has exhausted all legal appeals and her defense team has appealed to Gov. Phil Bredesen to commute her sentence. Public defender Kelly Henry, Owens’ post-conviction attorney, argues that the death penalty should be reserved for the “worst of the worst” and that the death sentence in her case is “grossly disproportionate ... and unprecedented in our state.” Gaile Owens is scheduled to be put to death eight days after her 58th birthday in September. Is this justice? It’s up to the governor to decide.

Political view

Public forum Gorden’s column has information that is misleading, not factual

Editor: The column written by Dave Gorden in the April 19 Mountain Press contains information that is not factual and is very misleading. One of the topics of his commentary was the National Day of Prayer. He states, “For the past eight years the White House has had a ceremony to celebrate the day, but President Obama has canceled it for 2010.” This is not the truth. The truth is there will not be one on the White House lawn, nor was there one last year. However, President Obama signed a proclamation last year and will do the same this year, recognizing the first Thursday in May as the National Day of Prayer. A U.S. District Court judge in Wisconsin ruled the National Day of Prayer unconstitutional, saying the observance, to quote AP, “amounts to a call for religious action.” Despite the ruling, a White House spokesman said the president will recognize the National Day of Prayer with a public proclamation, as he did in 2009. Gorden also writes, “It is interesting that the President has stated publicly, that we are not a Christian nation.” This is only a portion of that statement. The president went on to say, “We are not just a nation of Christians but Muslims, Jews and Hindus — and non-believers.” This is factual; we (Christians) are not the only inhabitants of the United States, a fact that cannot be denied. The subject of this very commentary is quite ironic: the National Day of Prayer. Yet, Mr. Gorden chooses to omit the relevant issues, making the piece sound very inflammatory, to say the least. I hope, in future commentaries, the writer chooses to

give the entire story or nothing at all.

Attacks on those of faith have grown at a rapid pace

Editor: Regarding the story “Prayer Rally Draws Hundreds,” I am so grateful to live in a place where people have the courage to stand up for their faith. If we do not have the courage to speak the truth, than what good is our faith? Whether it is a lawsuit attacking the National Day of Prayer or complaints filed against our county, there can be no doubt that attacks upon those of faith have grown at a rapid pace. But, this should come as no surprise, for in the Gospel of John it says, “And this is the condemnation, that the light has come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. For everyone practicing evil hates the light and does not come to the light, lest his deeds should be exposed. But he who does the truth comes to the light, that his deeds may be clearly seen, that they have been done in God.” Those who love and serve the Lord, love the light. Because they know they are loved by God — they know that they have no reason to fear. Those with no faith, however, fear much. Hopefully, one day they will choose faith instead of darkness. For the Lord loves them just as He loves all people, and He patiently waits for them to choose life. Theresa Fleming Pigeon Forge

PREP GRIDIRON

Longtime G-P strength coach remembered Ruttenbur, strength coach at G-P for 30 years, died Wednesday By COBEY HITCHCOCK Sports Writer GATLINBURG — “Yeah, baby.” Two words that will never again be heard coming from the GatlinburgPittman Highlanders football sideline. At least, not from anyone capable of the same gusto as G-P strength coach Bruce Ruttenbur, who passed away Wednesday after suffering through an extended illness. “With Bruce always saying ‘yeah, baby,’ it kind of overcame the football team,” said former G-P and current Clemson Tigers quarterback

“This is my whole life,” Ruttenbur said of the G-P football program one year after his beloved wife Pam died in 2006. “This keeps me young and keeps me thinking and keeps me thinking young.” Taylor Ogle. “Sometimes we’d break down (practice and games) with ‘yeah, baby.’ And we’d all be saying it all the time as a football Cobey Hitchcock/The Mountain Press

KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — The Kansas City Chiefs, hoping to shore up the NFL’s next-to-worst defense, have taken Tennessee safety Eric Berry with the fifth overall pick in the NFL draft. A three-year starter for the Volunteers, Berry is also a member of the National Honor Society who graduated with a 3.75 grade point average. The Chiefs, 4-12 last season in the first year of the Scott Pioli/Todd Haley regime, will count on him as an instant starter for a team that was 31st overall in total defense and 22nd in pass defense. In his college career, Berry recorded 245 tackles and intercepted 14 passes, returning them for 494 yards — just seven yards shy of the NCAA record.

Lady Eagles drop heartbreaker ...

By COBEY HITCHCOCK Sports Writer PIGEON FORGE — For those in the community already missing prep hoops season, this weekend should help curb any hunger pains for more of the sport. Pigeon Forge High School is hosting the Smoky Mountain Classic, an invitational non-sanctioned AAU basketball tournament, with games starting tonight and running through Sunday.

Robbins will be reunited with former Smoky Bearette Jessica Brasington, who signed last year with Virginia Intermont. That piece of history played a huge role in Thursday’s signing of Robbins. “I told Jessica that I was thinking about going to Bryan College a few months ago,� said Robbins. “She said she felt like her best friend was breaking up with her, and she wanted me to go to Virginia Intermont.� So Brasington went to second-year Cobras coach Lauren Kinser and told her about Robbins, and that effort eventually led to this week’s signing. “Jessica Brasington has just been a great heart to our program, and she recommended Kayla to me and got me some information about her,� said Kinser. “(Jessica) said ‘coach, you need to talk to Kayla.’ So I started talking to her, and I have been blessed since getting to know her and her famDISC PADS OR BRAKE SHOES

Bradford is NFL’s 1st pick

Titans select DE Derrick Morgan

ST. LOUIS (AP) — The St. Louis Rams picked Oklahoma quarterback Sam Bradford with the No. 1 selection in the NFL draft Thursday night, hoping he can help revive a franchise that has slid a long way from its days as “The Greatest Show on Turf.” St. Louis was 1-15 a year ago and has a sorry 6-42 record the past three years. Bradford was the 2008 Heisman Trophy winner, and he convinced the Rams that he has recovered from shoulder surgery last October. Releasing Marc Bulger earlier this month all but cinched the Rams’ decision. A.J. Feeley, who signed a free agent deal in the offseason, has 15 career starts in 10 seasons. Rookie Keith Null threw three touchdown passes with nine interceptions last season. Kyle Boller signed with the Raiders and Mike Reilly, a late-season pickup, has no NFL experience. St. Louis needs help most on offense after trailing the rest of the NFL with a 10.9-points-per-game average, scoring one or fewer touchdown in 13 games. The Rams are also 29th in total offense and defense. Bradford followed the Lions’ Matthew Stafford as the second straight quarterback

The big lefty stroked an opposite field homer, his first of the season, in the bottom of the first inning to put the team up 1-0. Later in the inning a Logan Jenkins fielder’s choice drove in Chris McCarter, who’d walked. That made the count 2-0. Gibbs threatened in the fifth, getting two runners into scoring postition, but Sawyer pitched his way out of the trouble, keeping the Eagles out front. Seymour added another score in the bottom of the inning on a Brandon Timmerman fielders’ choice to up the ante to 3-0. Gibbs finally got on the scoreboard in the

NASHVILLE (AP) — The Tennessee Titans have taken Georgia Tech DE Derrick Morgan with the 16th pick of the NFL draft. The Titans were expected to take an end Thursday night since they need help

traded up to grab Michigan’s Brandon Graham at No. 12 and the New York Giants took Jason Pierre-Paul of South Florida at No. 15. The 6-foot-3, 266-pound Morgan had 12 sacks last season for the Yellowjackets.

But Brandon Timmerman made a great throw into third from left field, nailing Turner at the bag for the inning’s second out. Two batters later Sawyer was out of the inning with Seymour still on top 3-1. And that’s where it would stay. Gibbs did add a one-out Andy Hibbett single in the top of the seventh, but Sawyer came right back and struck out the next two Eagles to seal the win for Seymour. Now the team will travel to Sevier County Monday night for a huge district matchup with the Smoky Bears.

Cabin break-in leads to burglary charges By JEFF FARRELL Staff writer A local man is facing burglary charges after detectives investigating a break-in at a rental cabin allegedly traced evidence from the crime back to him. Daniel Mart Wilson, 18, of 4025 Boogertwon Road, faces charges of aggravated burglary, theft over $1,000 and vandalism over $500. Detectives believe he was responsible for a break-in at an occupied rental cabin on Spring Creek Way March 29. During the investigation, they were able to recover some of the stolen items, Sheriff Ron Seals said, including a laptop computer. They eventually traced the property to Wilson, the sheriff said. The investigation is still going on, and Seals asked anyone with information on the case to call Detective John Brown or Detective Stephanie Hodges at 428-1899. n jfarrell@themountainpress.com

Bridge named in honor of John Rimel By DEREK HODGES Staff Writer SEVIERVILLE — Current county leaders paid tribute to one who held their post several decades ago when they voted unanimously Monday evening to name a bridge on Valley View Road in memory of the late John Rimel. Rimel served as a county commissioner for 12 years before filling the post as superintendent of the county’s road department. The overpass that will henceforth bear his name is one the Wears Valley resident traveled often and leads to the cemetery where he is buried. “This is a great honor for a man who served the people of this county

well,” County Mayor Larry Waters said. Waters presented several members of Rimel’s family with a copy of the proclamation dedicating the bridge in his memory. “John Rimel served his fellow citizens with integrity and generosity as a former superintendent of the Sevier County Highway Department,” the document reads. “John Rimel greatly improved the transportation system and made a positive impact on the citizens of Sevier County as Sevier County highway superintendent.” According to current Superintendent Jonas Smecler, Rimel is credited with undertaking major road projects in the Seymour and Wears Valley areas. A sign will be

put up to denote the “John Rimel Memorial Bridge,” a span across Cove Creek in Wears Valley. In other business during the County Commission’s monthly meeting, the group also approved: n Setting a 25 mile per hour speed limit on Dolly’s Drive n Appointing a delinquent tax attorney for the county as requested by the trustee n A petition to release the trustee from further liability for the collection of real and personal property taxes for the year 2008 as requested by the

trustee n Authorizing the use of state aid in resurfacing local roads n Amendments to the current budget Rezoning Requests n From Stephen and Melanie Lee for property on Chestnut Springs Way from R-1 (low-density residential) to C-2 (general commercial) for a barn to be used as an events venue n From Marty Marine for property at 126 and 128 Marine Way from C-2 to R-1 for residential uses. n dhodges@themountainpress.com

White Nose Syndrome found in brown bat in national park Submitted report

Submitted

Sevier County is a StormReady county. On hand for the presentation are, from left, John Mathews, director, Sevier County Emergency Management; Larry Waters, county mayor; and Tim Troutman, meteorologist, National Weather Service, Morristown.

Weather Service recognizes Sevier as StormReady county Submitted report The National Weather Service in Morristown has recognized Sevier County as a StormReady county. “Through a partnership between the National Weather Service and emergency management, the StormReady program encourages communities to take a proactive approach to improving local hazardous weather operations and public awareness,” said George Mathews, meteorologistin-charge. County officials were presented with a recognition letter and special signs during a ceremony outside of the courthouse. The nationwide community preparedness program uses a grassroots approach to help communities develop plans to handle local severe weather and flood-

ing threats. The program is voluntary and provides communities with clearcut advice from the local National Weather Service forecast office and state and local emergency managers. The program began in 1999 with seven communities in the Tulsa, Okla., area being designated as StormReady communities. Today, there are more than 1,400 StormReady communities. To be recognized as StormReady, a community must establish a

24-hour warning point and emergency operations center; have more than one way to receive severe weather forecasts and warnings and to alert the public. Other requirements include creating a system that monitors local weather conditions; promoting the importance of public readiness through community seminars; and, develop a formal hazardous weather plan, which includes training severe weather spotters and holding emergency exercises.

NATIONAL PARK — Biologists at Great Smoky Mountains National Park have received confirmation that one Little Brown bat collected from its hibernating refuge in the White Oak Blowhole cave tested positive for Geomyces destructans (the fungus and the presumptive causative agent of White Nose Syndrome). The cave contains the largest known Indiana bat hibernacula in Tennessee. The Indiana bat is a federally listed endangered species which has seen declines in the northeastern U.S. due to WNS. White Nose Syndrome has killed in excess of 90 percent of the bats in many of the caves and mines in the Northeast, and is just now showing up in the

Southeast. The fungal infection of one of the two bats collected in the park was confirmed by the U.S. Geological Survey’s National Wildlife Health Center in Madison, Wisc. In addition to confirming the fungal infection of the Little Brown bat, a common bat species, photographs taken of federally listed Indiana bats in the cave were found consistent with the early stages of WNS. Park wildlife biologist Bill Stiver said, “We closed all of the park’s 17 caves and two mine complexes to any public entry a year ago to prevent the possible importation of the WNS pathogen on visitor’s clothing or gear, but scientists have confirmed that bat-to-bat transmission of the fungus occurs. We take this very seriously

because national parks are often the primary refuge that endangered species can count on for protection.” Stiver emphasized that the park’s caves would remain closed and Rangers would increase their enforcement to reduce the likelihood that visitors might transport the WNS pathogen to uninfected colonies either in the Park or elsewhere. Violators face fines of up to six months in jail or $5,000. White Nose Syndrome is named for the white fungus that forms on the faces of many infected bats.

The cast of ‘The Stagedoor Experience’ performed Sunday in Gatlinburg.

GPHS hosts ‘Stagedoor Experience’ Submitted report GATLINBURG — Stagedoor Manor, the performing arts training center for children and teens, celebrated its 35th anniversary with a new musical theater community outreach program, and chose Sevier County to launch the effort. Sevier County children and teens joined up and, on Sunday, performed “The Stagedoor Experience” at Gatlinburg-Pittman High School’s theater. Stagedoor Manor was recently featured as the new singing/ dancing finale for the Macy’s

Thanksgiving Day Parade. Professional staff, with over 40 years experience in inspiring and kids who love to perform, arrived in Gatlinburg April 16-18 to spend 15 hours of rehearsal culminating in the live performance. “It’s been a dream of ours for several years,” said Stagedoor production director (and Sevier County resident) Konnie Kittrell. “Kicking off the program here, where music is practically a second language, is perfect.” Stagedoor is a summer program located just outside New York city,

but staff and students come from all over the world. In 2009, children from 17 different countries attended the Catskill Mountain classes. Kittrell, who has been with Stagedoor for 28 years, already has several students in Smoky Mountain area schools. The New York campus has eight theaters and produces 40 shows per summer. Acknowledged as the premier program of its kind in the world, famous alumni include Natalie Portman, Robert Downey Jr., Jon Cryer, Zach Braff, Lea Michele and Mandy Moore.

when adequate nutrition was provided to the calf,” said Lane. Follow with a second implant according to the manufacturer’s recommendations for additional gain. Pinkeye prevention is also important to ensure the best price for cattle. Calves not affected by pinkeye are heavier at weaning and will not be discounted in price because of a spot in the eye. “To control pinkeye, you must control flies,” said Lane. Several insecticides are available that can be applied with insecticide-impregnated ear tags, back rubbers, sprays or dust. “By performing these recommended maintenance practices, beef producers can significantly increase returns to their beef operation,” said Lane. For more information on profitable beef production, contact your local county Extension agent. — Alan Bruhin is the Sevier County agricultural extension service director. Call him at 453-3695.

As spring approaches, beef producers can add value to their calves by performing recommended management practices. Suggested practices include castrating, dehorning, implanting, and preventing pinkeye. Three to five dollars per hundred pounds can be added to the value of bull calves if they are castrated, said Clyde Lane, a beef cattle production specialist with University of Tennessee Extension. “The price spread between bulls and steers will vary depending on calf weight and time of the year, but there is almost always a difference,” he said. Lane recommends the surgical (knife) method. He also suggests castrating early, which puts less stress on the calf as well as the producer. Producers should also remove the horns from horned cattle. “Calves that do not have horns sell for up to two dollars more per hundred pounds than horned calves. Horns should be removed while the calf is small and easier to handle.” To increase the weaning weights of calves, Lane suggests implanting. “Research and demonstrations have shown an increase of 15 to 25 pounds for each implant

We need to implement some hillside rules and regulations that prevent mountains from being completely decimated and lake property being cleared as to create erosion and sediment problems damaging the eco-systems of our waterways and tributaries. However, landowners must have their rights protected from excessive and unreasonable regulations. Appropriate balance should be enacted which protects our natural resources and yet encourages economic growth. TIM HURST: Not being up-to-date on these new rules, I would have to say

that the county would have to do less. I would have to listen to the citizens in my district. In a previous election when zoning was an issue, the Seventh District said no. KENNETH WHALEY: We have been blessed to live in this county, and with this comes a responsibility. We must make every effort

DUANE DODGEN: I don’t think the people trying to implement this issue understand compromise. A small group of individuals want to dictate how we conduct County business by eliminating the Lord’s Prayer. If I want to say the Lord’s Prayer and ask for God’s guidance in carrying out a productive meeting concerning the citizens of Sevier County, then, by the grace of God I shall. If it takes tax dollars to defend our Constitutional and God-given rights, I am for spending the money. Every American dollar I have seen has “IN GOD WE TRUST� written on it. In talking with many of the people in our County and District 7, I am convinced the majority is for doing whatever it takes to defend the tradition of reciting the Lord’s Prayer prior to each meeting. I don’t think the County is trying to force Christianity on anyone, but only wanting to take 60 seconds to carry on a tradition. TIM HURST: Probably not, because as citizens, we have already had many valued rights taken from us. As a county, we are going to have to stand together and take up for what we believe in. We are a country founded on Christian values. I was raised with these values, and I strongly believe in them. The power of prayer — priceless. KENNETH WHALEY: The Supreme Court of our country opens each session in prayer. I have stood in the State Senate which has always recited the Lord’s Prayer. I believe these complaints are coming from an organization which is afraid of suing one of them, but thinks it can bully or force smaller communities like ours with limited resources into relinquishing their rights. I am committed to continue the fight for our religious freedom that so many have given so much for.

The Zabel family includes from left, 6-year-old Zak, Beau, four-month-old Abby and Megan. Zak, Beau and Abby were all born with heart defects.

The heart of the matter Family’s good spirits prove helpful in dealing with medical issues By GAIL CRUTCHFIELD Community Editor KODAK — Watching Zak Zabel wrestle with a Power Ranger-shaped pillow and play Wii games, he’s just like any other 6-year-old. The same is true for his new baby sister Abby, who rocks back and forth in the mechanical swing near the window, lulled to sleep by the motion. Looking at them both, you wouldn’t know each was born with heart defects and has faced or is facing multiple surgeries. That is exactly what the youngsters and their parents, Beau and Megan Zabel, faced during the first few years of Zak’s life and in the months since Abby was born on Jan. 7. They had some warning six years ago when Zak was born; an ultrasound pointed to issues with his heart before he was born. Abby’s condition came as a surprise, since the pregnancy was closely monitored due to the circumstances of Zak’s birth and the fact that Beau also has a heart condition. The Zabels’ medical adventures began when an ultrasound showed Zak’s heart was smaller than it should be. At around five months, they discovered his heart wasn’t growing correctly, with only the two chambers on the right side of his heart working correctly. At five days old, Zak had his first surgery. Another followed at five months and his last at age 3. Watching and waiting for their child to go through the surgeries was difficult, but it was the only choice they could make when they were informed of his condition and the options. “We had three options with him,” Megan said. “One was to terminate, one was to put him on the heart transplant list and the third option was to do the three surgeries.” Their cardiologist informed them that half of the parents of children born with the defect choose to take their baby home. “They call in compassionate care,” Beau said. “They take them home and give them medicine and make them comfortable.” “They live about 10 days or so, they told us,” Megan said. That was not an

Re-inspect who you are and what you have going for you Have you ever heard the expression, “You look like a million bucks?� What about, “I feel like a million?� Most of us probably have heard or said such words at some time or another. However, probably none of us has heard or said, “You look like $19,000� or “I feel like $19,000.� At the same time, we are familiar with phrases such as, “You look like something the cats dragged up� or “I feel like something the cats dragged up.� In 2007, a painting known as “Young Girl in Profile� sold at auction for $19,000. It sold again a year later for about the same price. In 2009, the painting was valued at $150 million. How did the worth of this painting increase so greatly in such a brief period of time? Well, upon closer inspection, the painting that was originally considered to be from an early 19th century German artist was determined to be the work of master artist Leonardo da Vinci. The painting is known today as “La Bella Principessa.� The determination was made when da Vinci experts agreed the artist was left-handed, the perspective is flawless, the knots on the shoulder of the model’s dress and hair braiding are Leonardesque, the painting is Tuscan in overall style, with finishing details as Milanese, and da Vinci was known to have quizzed a traveling French artist about the use of pen and ink and colored chalk on vellum, the media in which “La Bella� was painted. However, since all “new� da Vinci works demand conclusive proof, forensic evidence came into play. A technology lab found a fingerprint matching a fingerprint on another da Vinci painting and found a matching partial palm print. If you don’t feel like a million bucks or more today, maybe you should re-inspect who you are and what you have going for you. Sometimes we all get down on ourselves, especially when experiencing disappointment or stressful situations. It’s at times

like this that we need to recall occasions when we were “on top of the worldâ€? about something. It’s at times like this that it would be good to recall your most recent or greatest achievement. Such a recall reminds you that you have accomplished something positive before, that you have felt great about yourself and your endeavors previously, and you can do it again. Eleanor Roosevelt said, “No one can make you feel inferior without your consent.â€? This “no oneâ€? includes you. As you reinspect yourself, begin by looking at all of the strengths and positives you have going for you. When you begin to lose your self-worth, it is because you begin to magnify your weaknesses and negatives while minimizing your strengths and positives. List the good things. Then list the things that are bringing you down. Capitalize on the pluses to help you overcome the minuses. Everyone is susceptible to losing feelings of selfworth, especially when something is going wrong. That’s when we should truly count our blessings and build on these blessings rather than just taking them for granted. And you know what, the greatest blessing of all is comparable to the forensic evidence that helped determine the value of “La Bella Principessa.â€? We are told in Genesis 1:27 and again in Psalm 139:13-16 that we have upon us the fingerprint and palm print of God. Appreciate these forensics and use them wisely.

Several months ago, 38 quilts were presented to veterans at the James Quinlan VA Hospital in Mountain Home. Two of the recipients included a Desert Storm veteran and a World War II WAC.

Quilts needed for area military veterans Submitted report Quilts of Valor (www. qovf.org) seeks to provide all service members and veterans touched by war with quilts. In the past two years, several groups in eastern Tennessee have started QOV projects, collected over 150 quilts, sponsored a quilt guild competition and manned a booth at the national AQS show in Knoxville in 2009. They have also set up the Peaceful Side of the Smokies guild at Great Smoky Mountain Heritage Center, whose sole purpose is making Quilts of Valor. Several months ago, 38 quilts were presented to veterans at the James Quinlan VA Hospital in Mountain Home.

A Marine Corps chaplain who is coordinating a Returning Warrior honor banquet is holding three-day workshops to assist returning soldiers. The workshops help to assess problems and assist returning veterans with services they may need. The chaplain wishes to present each of the Reservists with a Quilt of Valor. There is a need for 100 quilts by June 6 for an honor banquet in Nashville. All quilting work is performed by volunteers. Fabric, batting, thread and postage are a growing cost. Those who would like to contribute either by making quilts or with contributions to buy materials costs are asked to call 428-5305.

obstetrician as well as a high-risk obstetrician. Everything looked fine throughout the pregnancy. “They told us put your worry britches away, everything looks great,� Beau said. When Abby was born on Jan. 7, she didn’t cry out like most babies. The doctors thought maybe Abby’s lungs hadn’t developed fully yet and kept and eye on her. A short while later, a nurse was concerned with Abby’s low oxygen saturation numbers and took her to the neonatal intensive care unit. An ultrasound the next day showed an abnormality with Abby’s heart, which a cardiologist diagnosed at tettrology of fallot with pulmonary atresia. The Zabel’s own cardiologist confirmed the diagnosis. Megan said she thought someone was playing a cruel joke on them. “The only thing I could think to myself was, no, you’ve looked at the wrong baby. She’s been fine this whole time. It’s a sick joke.� She said her next conversation with God “wasn’t good,� since she felt he surely wouldn’t have done this to them a second time. Had that been the only issue with Abby, things would have gone much better when the Zabels brought her home five days later. Children with her condition, like snowboarder Shawn White, can wait five or six years before surgery is needed, Beau said.

her cardiologist’s request. They were going to test to see if her heart condition was leading to the digestion problems. They took her off all but one of her medications and began feeding her high calorie formula a half ounce at a time. “She did fine with it the first night and the cardiologist came in and changed the order and said let her eat and let’s see what happens,� Beau said. They stayed at the hospital for about a week just to let her eat. They’ve been home since March 12, but will return for a second surgery in May. The operation will be an eight- to 12-hour process. Beau said he spends much of the time listening to his iPod while Megan spends the time doing crosswords, just to get their minds off what is going on in the operating room. That’s the only way they can deal with the stress, Beau said. Beau said his one wish for anyone reading this story is that they realize the importance of taking an active role in their child’s medical care. “You have to be involved in your child’s care,� he said. “If you don’t think something’s right, you have to tell them. Because even the best doctors down there at Vanderbilt will tell you they don’t know everything. They do the best

with what they have and what they think is right, but they’re not always right. Sometimes a parent’s gut is a good indicator of what they need to do.â€? The Zabels said they’ve gotten a lot of support from family, friends and co-workers throughout the process. Megan’s brother Matt Loveday is holding a fundraiser Saturday at Catlettsburg Elementary School with Severe Attitude Wrestling. Megan’s employer, Tennessee State Bank, is sponsoring the event, and bank president Todd Proffitt will take to the ring as 2 Tough Todd. Tickets are $7 for adults, $5 for kids 6-12. All of the proceeds will benefit the Zabels, who said the money will be used for those things insurance doesn’t cover like the special formula Abby needs and gas, food and lodging. “We really didn’t know about it; he surprised us,â€? Beau said. “It’s nice to have family that wants to help and this was Matt’s way of saying this is what I can do to help.â€? “Even for the bank to help sponsor it and for Todd to wrestle, I mean he’s the president of the bank ‌ for him to agree to do it, I think that says a lot about him as a person,â€? Megan said. “The bank’s been a big help.â€?

But the day after they brought her home she had a bloody stool, instigating a trip to her doctor and then the emergency room. She spent about 10 days at Children’s Hospital, not able to eat anything the entire time. She was then transferred to Vanderbilt Hospital where the first catheterization study of her heart was planned and her first surgery performed. “She did very well with the heart surgery,� Beau said. “Had that been the only issue at the time, we would have been there after surgery for six days,� Megan said. “We had to stay there for the stomach and feeding issues.� They were able to bring her back to the Knoxville hospital for a couple of weeks and then home briefly. “We came home for about six hours and she got to vomiting,� Megan said. They went back to the hospital for what turned out to be a nineweek period with only that six hours in between. At one point, Abby was on eight different medications and being fed by a tube. “As a parent, you could tell the tubes irritated her so much,� Beau said. He asked the doctors what their plans were for treating Abby. “Finally, I had enough and told the doctor, ‘Look, if you don’t have a plan, I want the tubes out. I want her to rest and we’ll try to give her a bottle.� They finally agreed, but first Abby was taken back to Vanderbilt at

Advice

Be supportive, not critical when giving daughter bad news

Zits

Blondie

Baby Blues

Beetle Bailey

Dear Annie: My daughter, “Chloe,” is 21 and expecting her first child. She works full time and lives with her father (we are divorced). Chloe is still seeing the father of the child — a convicted felon who was released from prison last year and within a month was charged with shoplifting. He has no car or job and lives with a friend. I recently found out he has three new court appearances pending in the next month (one for possession of marijuana, one for possession of a counterfeit instrument and the third for trespassing). He may end up back in prison before the baby is born. I don’t think my daughter knows about the new charges. Should I tell her or let sleeping dogs lie? — Desperate Mom in Arizona Dear Mom: Chloe deserves to know, but try not to criticize while you tell her. Simply give her the information, saying you thought she’d want to be aware of her boyfriend’s problems. She is likely to become defensive and claim she knew all along, in which case, say nothing more about him. But do offer your support to her. Dear Annie: “Rick,” my best friend and significant other, likes his beer. Before we started dating, it was normal for him to be drunk every weekend and once in a while during the week, as well. He never drinks during the workday. I told Rick that if we were going to have a relationship, he needed to slow down his drinking significantly, although I don’t expect him to stop entirely. He now gets drunk only occasionally and only with his friends. Rick recognizes that he still has a problem and

wants to change. He was raised in a family where people drank heavily. I hate it when Rick gets drunk, because I get angry and we fight. He recently told me he hates how he treats me when he’s smashed. I suggested he learn to pace himself, but he says that’s harder than it sounds. We plan to marry, and he is well aware that I refuse to raise my children in a house where a parent drinks excessively. He wants to cut back, and I want to support and encourage him as much as possible. How do we do this? — Baltimore Barb Dear Barb: If Rick comes from a family of heavy drinkers and has difficulty pacing himself and staying sober, he may be an alcoholic. If that’s the case, he may have to give up beer entirely. The fact that he is willing to work on this, however, is a very good sign. Suggest he contact A.A. (aa.org). They are in the phone book. Even if Rick doesn’t believe he is an alcoholic, he could benefit from their assistance. And you should contact Al-Anon (alanon.alateen.org) to find out how best to respond to his drinking. Dear Annie: I read the letter from “Cornered in California,” about the couple whose entire paycheck goes to cover the high cost of the husband’s prescription medications. Your advice was excellent. My guess, however, is the couple

has already applied for social services. There may also be assistance from the drug manufacturer. As an attorney, I have assisted clients in filling out the application required by the drug maker to learn whether the patient qualifies for free or reduced rates for much-needed medication. Some drug manufacturers post the application for assistance on their websites. In two instances, my clients — both impoverished — were able to receive free medication directly from the manufacturer. This couple should learn whether the drug maker has set up a charity for such a purpose. — Attorney in Louisville, Ky. Dear Attorney: Thank you for your expert suggestions. Anyone interested should first try contacting the drug manufacturer. They are often quite helpful. Here are a few other places: Needy Meds (needymeds. com); Partnership for Prescription Assistance (pparx.org); RxAssist and Rx Outreach Patient Assistance Programs (rxassist.org); Rx Hope (rxhope.com); and Together Rx Access (togetherrxaccess.com).

Crockett marriage license returned to Jefferson County Submitted report JEFFERSON CITY — Davy Crockett’s marriage license has returned to Jefferson County, with assistance from the State Library and Archives. Crockett, known in as “King of the Wild Frontier,” was a frontiersman, soldier and politician. Early in his life, Crockett obtained a marriage license to wed Margaret Elder, who broke his heart by marrying someone else. Although the marriage

never happened, the marriage license remained on file at the Jefferson County Courthouse until it was lost decades ago. Now, thanks to the work of officials in Jefferson County and the Tennessee State Library and Archives in Nashville, the document has been returned to the Jefferson County clerk’s

vault. “This important historical document has now been returned to its rightful place in the public domain,” said Secretary of State Tre Hargett, who oversees the State Library and Archives. “I am grateful for the role our dedicated staff played in securing this item.”
