Pigeon Forge junior leads pink-out effort By ELLEN BROWN Staff Writer PIGEON FORGE — When the Pigeon Forge Tigers play Grainger County tonight, the players will no longer be separated by just team colors — they’ll be united in pink. It’s all part of PFHS’s first “Pink Out and Lace Up” night, which was coordinated by junior cheerleader Taylor Clabo to promote breast cancer awareness. Players will be wearing pink shoelaces. Last spring the outgoing cheerleading captain presented Taylor with pink shoelaces as a symbolic “passing of the torch.” “(The color) made me think of breast cancer awareness — I had just walked in the Tanger 5K Walk for Breast Cancer,” Taylor said. “It runs on both sides of my family. My great-aunt died from complications last year.” “We also have a couple of breast cancer survivors — one has been for 40 years,” added her mother, Kim Clabo. The teen had no idea the shoelaces See pink-out, Page A5

SEVIERVILLE — The Sevier County Grand Jury returned dozens of indictments this week, including allegations of robbery and kidnapping that apparently related to a home invasion robbery. Joshua Michael Baber and Jose Rodriguez were charged through presentments with seven counts of especially aggravated kidnapping, especially aggravated robbery, especially aggravated burglary and four counts of aggravated robbery. The two of them were initially charged after a June 12 incident on Autumn Lane in Gatlinburg. Police said they broke into the home and shot one person before taking some property and fleeing the scene. Baber was arrested on separate charges in Blount County, and Rodriguez was later tracked down by Gatlinburg police. Authorities said they found evidence tying the two to the alleged home invasion. The grand jury is a panel of 12 randomly selected county residents who meet in private to review criminal allegations to determine whether there is enough evidence to justify proceeding with a trial. They do not determine guilt or innocence. A new grand jury is selected every two months and meets at that time to review allegations. If a grand jury determines there is not enough evidence to merit a trial, it can return a finding on “no true bill.” If they find there is enough evidence to proceed, they can return an indictment or a presentment. Indictments are returned in cases where the charges against the accused party have already been announced in general sessions court, and a judge has sent the matter to the grand jury. Presentments are returned when the grand jury issues charges that had not been announced previously. Sealed presentments are kept secret until the defendants are arrested. See invasion, Page A13
Shark race fundraiser scheduled for Saturday By DEREK HODGES Staff Writer GATLINBURG — The water is right, the competitors are primed and somebody will be walking away from the Great Gatlinburg Shark Race $10,000 richer, but your last chance to be that person is quickly nearing. The popular annual event, set for 3 p.m. Saturday on the Little Pigeon River in front of Ripley’s Aquarium of the Smokies, will send thousands of rubber shark bath toys down a whitewater course through the middle of town. The first one to cross the finish line will win its human sponsor the hefty cash prize. Those who are interested can cast their lot into the competition by buying a ticket for the race for $10, with each ticket corresponding to one of the competing fish. In addition to the money, those who take part will have the chance to claim a seven day, six night Smoky Mountain vacation package; a 35 Carat Amethyst; a $350 Walmart gift card; or one of two VIP amusement packages for six people to Sevierville, Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg area attractions. “It’s a fun event to watch, and it’s fun to think, ‘I could actually win,’” United Way Director Tom Newman says. “With no more than 15,000 sharks floating down the river, your odds are better than the lottery,” See shark race, Page A5

And the top prize is likely more than most folks who play games of chance will ever win, he says. The little fish will get a big production, with folks lining the race route to cheer on the sharks they’ve sponsored or just to support the tiny red and purple floaters. They’ll make their way from the bridge in front of Christ in the Smokies to the one in front of the aquarium, with their every move followed by announcers along the route. Their updates will be broadcast through speakers at the finish line. All the action will kick off at 3 p.m., but it depends on how swiftly the water is moving as to when it ends. The event, which is sponsored and put on by the city of Gatlinburg and Ripley’s Aquarium, is one of the largest annual events supporting United Way and a crucial part of its fundraising campaign. While the prizes are nice, even those who don’t win should feel the reward of doing something good to help neighbors in need. “With $10 tickets for the Shark Race, probably anyone could afford to help out,” Newman says. “The overall mission of United Way is to mobilize the caring power of community.” By doing that and, they hope, raising the $500,000 they’re aiming for this year, the group supports a host of community service agencies that provide assistance to local residents. It does that by distributing the money it raises to those orga-
nizations, which include everything from youth programs to lifesavers to assistance for the elderly. Tickets are available through today at the aquarium, local Food City locations and the Gatlinburg Welcome Centers, as well as from United Way supporters. They can also be pur-
chased on the United Way Web site at www. uwosc.org. As for those who want to jump into the competition at the last minute, tickets will be sold up until just before the race’s start on the plaza in front of the aquarium Saturday. n dhodges@themountainpress.com

Soldier accused in 3 deaths MANCHESTER (AP) — A soldier is accused of killing his girlfriend and her two young children, stuffing their corpses into plastic garbage bags and hiding them in a closet for days. A neighbor says he noticed an unusual stillness at the house normally busy with the toddlers and their friendly mother. When police in this small town investigated a missing person’s report Wednesday night, they said they found a “very gruesome” crime scene
that rattled even veteran investigators. “It’s the worst I’ve seen, and I’ve been here 30 years,” said Ray Stewart, a police investigator in this town of 10,000 that hosts the Bonnaroo Music and Arts Festival each summer. Manchester Police Chief Ross Simmons identified the victims as 26-yearold Stephanie Hershman and her sons, 3-year-old Jathan and 1-year-old Jaylon. Police said 30-yearold Matthew Perkins, of

Katy Perry
NEW YORK (AP) — Katy Perry’s cleavage is fine for Russell Brand — not so for Elmo and Sesame Street. T h e children’s show says it won’t air a taped segment featuring the “California Gurls” Perry singer and Elmo. The pop star — who is known for her risque outfits — wore a gold bustier top as she sang a version of her hit “Hot N Cold.” But some felt it was too revealing for the kid set. Sesame Street said in a statement Thursday that in light of the “feedback we’ve received” after the bit was aired on YouTube, they won’t include it on the show.

commentary
Comedians’ rally not good idea Marty Kaplan is one smart guy. He is now the director of the Norman Lear Center for the study of entertainment and society at the Annenberg School of the University of Southern California. The rest of his resume is embarrassing to the rest of us: He graduated summa cum laude in molecular biology from Harvard, received a first in English at Cambridge, earned a Ph.D. in modern thought from Stanford and, as a vice president of Disney, wrote a movie for Eddie Murphy. He has this theory about entertainment taking over the news, even the world. At the blackboard, he shows traditional media as a series of circles marked “Politics and Government,” “Business,” “Society,” “Sports,” “Entertainment,” etc. That’s what newspapers looked like, say, 20 years ago. Then he shows the “Entertainment” circle ballooning to cover part of, even most of, the other circles. That’s where we are now. If any proof of Kaplan’s thesis were needed it came last Tuesday when the Los Angeles Times, in its main news section, offered this three-column headline: “Warrant Issued for Lohan.” With a two-column photo of a bad-girl actress, the paper reported that she had failed another drug test. And that, of course, came three days after the comedians Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert announced that they wanted hundreds of thousands of people to come to Washington on Oct. 30 to listen (and laugh) as they make fun of politics and politicians at the feet of Abraham Lincoln’s Memorial. Well, that’s just great, but I am not sure all of this is good for children or democracy. Lincoln, though, might actually enjoy it. He was, after all, a great story- and joke-teller. And he knew a good deal about the connections between politics and entertainment. As someone said, maybe it was Lincoln himself, politics is show business for ugly people. Beyond that, torchlight parades, July Fourth picnics and Will Rogers were always politics disguised as entertainment. Or should it be entertainment disguised as politics? In fact, one of the nation’s greatest series of political events, the debates between Senate candidates Lincoln and Stephen Douglas in 1858, were actually a great entertainment of their time. Wagonloads of families from all over Illinois would travel, sometimes for days, to become part of the crowd at what were really two- or three-day carnivals of music, food and oratorical entertainment. Those 19th-century tailgaters roared with laughter when Lincoln, who knew his opponent had a fondness for hearty drink, said: “Douglas has said his father was a cooper. I am certain he was a good one, for he has made one of the best whiskey casks I have ever seen!” However that line works 150 years later, there is a another difference now: Instead of Lincoln and Douglas as stars, we now get just stars. Stewart, Colbert, Glenn Beck. They are interesting men, but in claiming political leadership — and that is what they are doing — they are degrading American politics even more than it degrades itself. In fact, a wise man once said: “Maybe the nice thing about being a comedian is never having a full belief in yourself to know the answer ... (Comedians) don’t lead a lot of marches.” Whoops! That was Jon Stewart during an interview a few weeks ago in New York Magazine. These guys are greedy for material, which is right and natural. Is it possible our politicians (and voters) aren’t already providing all they need? Isn’t Christine O’Donnell in Delaware with her anti-masturbation campaign beyond parody? And what about that guy who no one seems to know but is the Democratic nominee for Senate in South Carolina? Could anything be funnier? She will end up on “Dancing With the Stars,” which actually is what she seems to be about, and he could end up in jail. Maybe politicians (and political journalists, too) are only going to get what they deserve on Oct. 30. I’m against it, but I’ll be watching. After all, Stewart and Colbert are really funny. I just worry that they and we are going too far. I don’t believe in philosopher-kings or philosopher-comedians, either. — Richard Reeves, a presidential scholar and expert on six presidents, is the author of several books, including profiles of Richard Nixon and John Kennedy.

Chamber made Gatlinburg Executive Director Vicki Simms has done much in decade They gathered at the Gatlinburg Chamber of Commerce last Friday in a unified and unbridled show of admiration, respect and friendship at a reception for Vicki Simms. The occasion was Simms’ 10th anniversary as executive director of the Chamber. Staff, Gatlinburg business leaders and friends attending the reception presented her with a commemorative plaque, flowers and gifts. The show of affection was significant. For many in the working world, such displays are reserved for 25th anniversaries or retirements — if, indeed, at all. That those in contact with Simms on a daily basis planned this event spoke volumes about her leadership ability and professional and interpersonal skills. Simms is clearly a mover and a shaker. She knows how to get things done without ruffling too many feathers or stepping on too many toes. Leading a Chamber that is a lightning rod for businesses that depend on tourism in often-difficult economic times is a demanding and at times delicate task. But Simms has proven to be a unifier and a consensus builder, spear-
heading projects critical to Gatlinburg’s economic well-being. “Her enthusiasm and love for the area are contagious, and her leadership and advocacy have been invaluable,” said 2010 President Logan Coykendall. “On almost every issue over the last 10 years, she has had some effect on our community, she has been right there in the middle providing leadership and/or facilitation to help bring about positive solutions.” Over the past decade, she has helped plan the construction of the building that now houses the Chamber, has served on various committees, advisory councils and boards. Most recently, Simms was named to the Tennessee Chamber of Commerce Executives Board of Directors as East Tennessee representative. She is a person who gets involved — at the local, regional, state and national levels. Among Simms’ local affiliations are Rotary Club, Friends of the Smokies, Anna Porter Library and United Way, the Gatlinburg Tourism Board, Gatlinburg Hospitality Board, Gatlinburg Gateway Foundation and the 321 East Parkway
Resource Team. Within the area, statewide and regional levels, Simms is involved in the Knoxville Tourism Alliance, Southeast Tourism Society, Tennessee Tourism Round Table, Tennessee Department of Tourism, Great Smoky Mountain Sustainable Tourism Summit, Governor’s Conference on Tourism, Great Smoky Mountain Arts and Crafts Foundation, Blue Ridge Parkway Association and Highway 321 Corridor. She’s also a member of the U.S. Chamber of Commerece and U.S. Chamber Small Business Summit. Two of the more compelling projects Simms has had a hand in are Gatlinburg Goes Green, which now boasts 10 percent of Chamber membership at bronze level or above; and the Two Chambers One Voice joint legislative series with the Sevierville Chamber, in which the two agencies have teamed for the good of the county. In a decade of service, Vicki Simms has accomplished as much for her city and county and most people will in a lifetime. We look forward to her being around for many years to come.

Public forum Tea party chairman denies all allegations in letter
Editor: This letter is in response to Buffy James’ letter which appeared in Wednesday’s Mountain Press. As chairman of the Sevier County Tea Party, I would like to address her unfounded allegations. Simply put, every single item in her letter is demonstrably false. There has been no coopting of our tea party by the local Republican committee or any other outside group. It is no secret that many of the SCTP members are Republicans. Even so, in the development of a new organization, there will almost always be divergent thought and ideas. Sometimes the differences are not accepted by some and they leave the organization. When we all volunteered to be on the steering committee, the SCTP membership entrusted us with the responsibility to get things up and running and keep our group focused on the values and priorities of the Tea Party as a whole: constitutionally limited govern-
ment, fiscal responsibility, free markets and a return to traditional American values. We have done our best to live up to that trust in as transparent and productive a way as possible. Our email list has grown from around 70 at our initial meeting to almost 500 at last count. We must be doing something right. As to her specific allegations, let me say unequivocally there have been no secret meetings, no Republican Party rule book has been put in place and there has been no undue influence by any one member. This is a “we the people” organization, including the steering committee. Each member, including myself, has one voice and one vote, period. Our bylaws were taken directly from other Tea Party organizations throughout the country, and the entire steering committee, including Mrs. James, unanimously voted to adopt them. We follow Roberts Rules of Order in all of our meetings, as the entire membership attending our formational meeting agreed to do. This allows us to conduct meetings in an orderly manner and permits discussion respecting every person’s right to be heard.
Mrs. James has continually made herself heard both at steering committee meetings and by e-mail and phone calls to each of us and others. Unfortunately, she has now taken things to a public forum in a very distasteful and accusatory way, when she felt the outcome of her previous conversations was unsatisfactory. As we are just a few weeks away from the most important election of our lifetimes, we cannot and must not take our eyes off the ball. This will be our only response in this forum, since we can’t afford to get sidetracked on issues that have no merit or basis in fact. Let me reassure everyone that if they did have any merit, I could not in good conscience write this response. In closing, we as the SCTP exist to move forward the cause of freedom and liberty, of constitutionally minded conservative government and a better America for us and our children. We invite all like minded people to join us in that effort. Brett Randles Chairman Sevier County Tea Party

Trojans no match for Bears SCHS tops Trojans 28-13 in battle for 2-AAA hierarchy By COBEY HITCHCOCK Sports Writer SEVIERVILLE — The Sevier County High School Smoky Bears grabbed all the early momentum and rode it to a big 28-13 IMAC Conference win over the Trojans of Morristown West on a special Thursday night edition of high school football at Burchfiel Stadium in Sevierville. The game was never as close as the final score would indicate, even though the Bears failed to score after intermission and were outgained by over 100 yards in the contest. But the 15-point win puts the Bears back in contention for the District 2-AAA crown and in control of their own playoff destiny, still with four regularseason district contests to close out the 2010 regular season. “It was a great first half,” said SCHS head football coach Steve Brewer, following the win. “But we’ve got to be able to carry that over to the second half.” After forcing the Trojans into a three-and-out punt on the game’s opening possession, SCHS sophomore Logan McCarter got the offense rolling with a big 36-yard punt return all the way to the West 32 with 9:41 in the first quarter. Six plays and 2:12 later, SCHS senior QB Danny Chastain set himself comfortably in the well-pro-
was,” Brewer marveled at Johnson’s INT return, which is becoming a regular sight from the senior cornerback. Again West was forced into a three-and-out punt, but the Trojans found their first and only momentum of the evening when McCarter readjusted his hands at the last moment and fumbled the Trojans’ punt. West jumped on the loose ball at the Bears 23 with 4:36 in the first. Morristown struck quickly when SCHS junior DB Brett Pippin slipped in coverage on the ensuing play, and Lee found J.T. Ostrowski wide open in the left side of the end zone for a 23-yard Trojans TD with 4:29 in the opening frame. The PAT failed, but the Bears’ lead had been cut to 14-6. Sevier County responded with a drive that defined the remainder of the evening. Pippin got it started with a nice 52-yard kickoff return to the Trojans 43, and the Bears offense took it the rest of the way on six plays. The drive was capped by Chastain’s six-yard TD pass to Gilson for the receiver’s second score of the night, this time on a quick out with 2:12 in the first quarter. Baxter’s kick made it 21-6 Sevier County, and the Bears never looked back. SCHS made it 28-6 with 3:08 in the half when Jason Davis/The Mountain Press Chastain connected deep Sevier County defensive lineman John Berry makes a big sack on Morristown West quarterback with Pippin for a 25-yard Andrew Lee late in Thursday night’s matchup of IMAC powers. score, which would prove to be the final points of the tected pocket and con- Sophomore Jared Baxter’s plays later when West QB 6:43 in the first.

PREP VOLLEYBALL
Tackett receives national attention “She was very grateful and very humbled that she was able to receive SEVIERVILLE — Sevier such an award on County High School behalf of her team.” Smoky Bearettes senior By COBEY HITCHCOCK Sports Writer
volleyball star Hailey Tackett received some attention from a couple of national organizations on Thursday morning. Both Maxpreps and the American Volleyball Coaches Association recognized Tackett as Tennessee’s Player of the Week for the week of September 14 through 20. The award is given weekly to one prep athlete from each of the 50 states and chosen from among all sports currently in season.
— SCHS coach Billy Ward
Tackett, a senior outside hitter for the Bearettes (17-8 overall, 5-1 in District 2-AAA), played in 13 games during that span and accumulated 76 digs (a 5.8 per-game average), 49 kills (a 3.76 per-game average), 14 blocks and two aces. “That’s a great week,” said SCHS volleyball coach Billy Ward. Coach Ward presented the award to Tackett in
front of a school assembly on Thursday morning as part of a pep-rally/ homecoming event in anticipation of the Smoky Bears’ specially televised Thursday night contest against Morristown West. Ward gave Tackett some heads-up before the presentation, however. “I broke it to her first and told her I wanted her to be prepared,” said Ward. “She was very grateful and very humbled that she was able to receive such an award on behalf of her team. “She knows that she doesn’t get the kills without a pass or a set from her teammates. It takes a
supporting cast.” Ward said that Tackett’s award is an exciting happening for the entire Smoky Bearettes volleyball team. “It’s an individual-type award, but it only comes to a player because of great teamwork. “To have the recognition for this is great for Hailey, but it’s also exciting to us and our program. It shows how hard these ladies are working and the commitment they’ve taken on, and I think people in the community are starting to see that about volleyball around here.” chitchcock@themountainpress.com

PREP FOOTBALL COMMENTARY AND PREDICITIONS
This week’s picks are easy: Big wins all around With the Sevier County game falling a day early and Seymour on their off week, we’ve only got two games to pick this week, and you don’t have to be a rocket scientist or certified sports geek to pick a winner in either one. Gatlinburg-Pittman hosts Unicoi County First the good news for the Highlanders — they’re not playing Gibbs again this week. Now perhaps even better news, this week’s real G-P opponent, Unicoi’s Blue Devils, are 0-5 on the season. That should spell an easy rebound win for the Highlanders. Unicoi lost close games with South Greene, Chuckey-Doak, Johnson County and Hampton, but
was routed last week by 22 points at Happy Valley — a team that is usually around G-P’s level. After last week, I’d say coach Benny Hammonds and his players want to come out and prove that can’t simply be judged by their one-sided loss to Gibbs. I’m picking the Highlanders to win and win big. Jason’s Pick: G-P 38, Unicoi 14 Cobey’s Pick: G-P 42, Unicoi 17 Pigeon Forge hosts Grainger
The Pigeon Forge Tigers should win this week as well, and here’s why. Last season the Grizzlies had no answer for running back Chase Travis, who lit their defense up for a school-record 343 rushing yards. Even if the Grizz have an answer for Travis, there is more danger with the Pigeon Forge offense this season than their was last year. If they key too heavily on Travis, then either Cory Fox, Kaleb Black or Patrick Barbieri will do them in. Jason’s Pick: Pigeon Forge 42, Grainger 28 Cobey’s Pick: Pigeon Forge 24, Grainger 20 2010 records Jason: 16-2 Cobey: 13-5

Gatlinburg-Pittman’s Walter Barber carried 11 times for 80 yards in the team’s loss to Gibbs last week.
G-P Highlanders hope to rebound against winless Unicoi By COBEY HITCHCOCK Sports Writer GATLINBURG — The high-flying Gatlinburg-Pittman Highlanders gridiron team was brought down to earth in a rude 38-point fashion last week by visiting District 3-AA rival Gibbs Eagles, 52-14. Tonight the Blue and Gold will look to rebound against visiting Unicoi County (0-5) for homecoming. But G-P’s program seemed stunned after last week’s loss to Gibbs, which the Highlanders (3-1) defeated 20-14 in a tri-
ple-overtime battle last year in Knoxville. Adding injury to insult, senior TE Ryan Taylor had a finger broken against Gibbs and his return to the field anytime soon is out of the question. Taylor was leading G-P in overall receiving yardage and average per catch heading into last week’s battle with Gibbs. Now the passing game will have to rely even more on senior WR Ron Durbin, who is the team’s co-leader in scoring with seven TDs along with senior RB Walter Barber. chitchcock@themountainpress.com

Gatlinburg-Pittman freshman Micki Werner scores the first of her hat trick three-goal night against visiting rival Austin-East on Thursday night at Mills Park. G-P won 8-0.
Young G-P soccer squad ties Alcoa By COBEY HITCHCOCK Sports Writer GATLINBURG — The young Gatlinburg-Pittman Lady Highlanders soccer squad keeps proving that they’re ready to compete now. On Thursday night, the Blue-and-Gold ladies (5-3-1 overall, 4-1 in the district) came back with two late second-half goals to tie the visiting Alcoa Lady Tornadoes 2-2.
Alcoa led 1-0 by intermission and built it to 2-0 in the second half. But with 14 minutes in regulation, sophomore Kasey Sumeriski cut the Lady Tornadoes lead in half, 2-1, with a goal on a penalty kick. And in the final two minutes, freshman Haley Hooker made it the final with a goal off an assist from freshman Courtney Malone. Also earlier this week, the Lady Highlanders put a
hurting on the Gibbs Lady Eagles with a 12-2 win. G-P sophomore Karsen Sims led the way with a hat trick. Freshmen Micki Werner and Makenzie Thomas, along with Sumeriski, scored two goals apiece. And juniors Haley Hatcher and Ariana Hansen, along with Hooker, each had a goal in the win. chitchcock@themountainpress.com

however, as the defense stood firm throughout the second half until the Trojans scored a meaningless touchdown on a 20-yard run by Bowe Craine with just 1:33 in regulation to make it the eventual final. The Bears missed a chance to extend their lead with 7:11 in the third when the offense stalled in the Red Zone and Baxter missed a 23-yard field goal attempt. Brewer was disappointed. “Now Morristown West, they didn’t give up,� said the Sevier County coach. “But when we miss scoring opportunities like we did in the second half, we’ve got to cash in on those things. We’ve got to be more consistent offensively. “It’s hard to say why we came out and looked so good, so crisp in that first half, and lay a goose egg in the second half.� West threatened to cut into the Purple-and-White lead early in the fourth quarter with a second down at the Bears 5, but Sevier County held defensively and forced a turnover-ondowns at their own 1 with 10:19 in regulation. The Trojans again threatened on their next possession with a first down at the SCHS 11, but the Purple and White again stood strong and forced a second-consecutive turnover-on-downs. “The defense played with their backs against the wall most of the second half, because offensively we couldn’t hardly get a first down,� said Brewer.
Besides the final scoreboard tally, one nice sight for the Smoky Bears was the return of senior linebacker Brad Mason, who finished his first game back from a concussion with six tackles, including two for loss. “It feels good, after two weeks off the field playing tonight wore me out,� said Mason, following Thursday night’s game. “(Waiting to get medically cleared today) I was scared to death, but he cleared me. It feels great, I love to be on the field.� In other Sevier County injury news, senior safety Tyler Wischer — who suffered a back injury three weeks ago against Jefferson County — was cleared medically Thursday. “He’s going to start practicing some Monday, so we’re going to see where he is,� said Brewer about his safety. The Bears somehow controlled the game against West despite being outgained 245 to 119 in total offense. Part of the
disparity in numbers is because Chastain finished the game with negative-54 rushing yards after gaining 49 but losing 103. Chastain had more success through the air on Thursday, completing 12-of-21 for 158 yards, three scores and no interceptions. Gilson led Sevier County with 69 yards receiving on seven catches with two scores. West had eight rushers combine for 98 rushing yards. Lee was 13-of-28 for 147 yards, a score and a pick. Ostrowski led all receivers with 85 yards on five catches with a score. With Thursday night’s domination of the Trojans, the Bears should now be considered favorites against the final four teams they’ll face this regular season, which include IMAC rivals Seymour, Cherokee, South-Doyle and Morristown East. chitchcock@themountainpress.com

Lawmakers seek to protect student athletes’ heads from brain injury By JIM ABRAMS Associated Press Writer WASHINGTON — Doctors told lawmakers on Thursday that student athletes risk altered lives and permanent brain damage if schools don’t protect them from the effects of blows to the head. A House committee grappling with how best to safeguard young athletes also heard from an NFL player who recently retired because of post-concussion problems; a mother whose son, a University of Pennsylvania football player with brain damage, committed suicide; and a high school girl unable to keep
up with her classes since suffering a concussion on the soccer field. Education and Labor Committee chairman George Miller, D-Calif., cited estimates of 300,000 sports-related concussions a year. The actual number, if recreational and playground injuries are included, is far higher, he said, and many go unreported, partly because athletes want to stay on the field and may not know the risks. Miller has introduced legislation that would require school districts to develop plans for concussion safety and management and increase student and parent awareness of their dan-
gers. Schools would also have to provide support for students recovering from concussions. Students suspected of sustaining a concussion during a school event would be prohibited from returning to the playing field that day and require evaluation by a health care professional. Several states have adopted similar measures, but Dr. Gerard Gioia, chief of pediatric neuropsychology at Children’s National Medical Center in Washington, D.C., said standard guidelines are crucial. He said a survey he conducted this summer of 140 Washington-area school nurses found that
less than half are prepared to assess a concussion and less than one-third are prepared to offer academic support. The Rev. Katherine Brearley’s son Owen Thomas, a 21-year-old Penn football player, had no known concussions when he committed suicide last April. It was discovered after his death that he had the onset of chronic traumatic encephalopathy, a brain disease that could have been brought on by repeated head trauma. “Clearly changes are needed in the medical community as well as the sports community,” she told lawmakers.

TWRA NEWS Archery-only bear season opens Sept. 25
Tennessee’s archery-only hunting season for black bears opens Sept. 25 and runs through Oct. 22, 2010, according to the Tennessee Wildlife Resources Agency (TWRA). Counties open to this archery-only season are Blount, Carter, Cocke, Greene, Jefferson (east of Hwy. 411), Johnson, Monroe, Polk (east of Hwy. 411 and north of Hwy. 64), Sevier, Sullivan, Unicoi, and Washington. In addition, archery-only bear hunting is open on the North Cherokee WMA from Oct. 16 – 22. Foothills WMA in Blount County is open Sept. 25 – Oct. 22. For specific regulations on black bear hunting, refer to page 32 of the 2010 Tennessee Hunting and Trapping Guide.
’Net check-in of deer, turkeys available
Deer season is fast approaching and hunters are gearing up for what looks to be a promising season, according to the Tennessee Wildlife Resources Agency. TWRA has made it easier to accommodate hunters who may have difficulty finding an open check station by allowing those hunters to check in their deer and wild turkeys over the internet. The new system can be accessed by visiting TWRA’s main website at www. tnwildlife.org. “The system is open to everybody who harvests a deer or wild turkey. Although we do want our hunters to utilize our check stations, we understand it’s not always a viable option, especially on those late-night retrievals,” says Daryl Ratajczak, TWRA Big Game Coordinator. “The new system is really easy to use but it does require that you print out your permanent killtag and your next temporary kill tag.” Hunters are reminded that bears cannot be checked using the Internet check in. Bears must be reported through the county checking stations. All big game animals, except wild hogs, must be checked in the same calendar day as the harvest. If for some reason you are unable to print your tags immediately there will be an option for hunters to print a temporary kill-tag from the Hunting Page on our main website. A listing of county big game check-in stations can be found on the TWRA web site at www.tnwildlife.org. Chapter 7 ,

Some break — Chesney has three new projects NASHVILLE (AP) — Kenny Chesney said he was taking a break. He didn’t say he was taking it easy. Just about everybody assumed country music’s top-drawing act would really slow down after he made the surprising announcement he was taking the year off from touring. After all, who should know more about relaxing than country’s Caribbean cowboy, the man who rivals Jimmy Buffett when it comes to songs about sandy beaches and frosty beverages? Buddy Cannon knew better, though. “Knowing him the way I do, I didn’t really see him taking a yearlong rest,” Chesney’s longtime producer said. “He ended up working more than he would’ve worked had he been out on tour.” The problem? After more than 15 years of constant motion, Chesney is proving he really doesn’t know how to relax. Sure, he visited a few exotic locales and logged some time on his boat. But his “What I Did On My Summer Vacation” essay includes precious little actual vacation. He compulsively filled his time by making two movies — a 3D concert film, which came out last spring, and the “Boys Of Fall” football documentary, which recently
aired on ESPN (a longer version will be released at a later date). He also made one labor-intensive album, “Hemingway’s Whiskey,” which comes out Tuesday. It was a rewarding experience, but Chesney admits he still needs a lot of saltwater therapy. Yet, Chesney did not appear at low ebb during a pair of recent interviews. He was excited about his new projects. Chesney didn’t have that same excitement for touring toward the end of his last run, feeling a disconnect after all those years on the road. He sold more than a million tickets a year for eight consecutive years and probably could have kept right on doing it. But once he realized he had moved from chasing the dream to feeding the machine, he hit the brakes. The last thing Chesney wanted was to lose the tight bond he has with his fans. He felt the pace he was on was damaging the music he was making in small ways and knew sooner or later his fans might start to notice. “My head needed it, my heart needed it, my soul needed it, the music needed it, my career needed it,” Chesney said of his time off the road. “It would be really easy to keep doing it because it was working and it was the thing to do.

In the last year country singer Kenny Chesney has made two movies and produced a new album that comes out next week. the album in unexpected directions. At one point, Cannon thought they were done. But Chesney decided he wasn’t happy with the songs and they pitched about half the album. Soon after the call went out for songs on Music Row. “Having more time and having the whole town pitch us every new song they got for eight or nine months couldn’t do anything but help raise the bar,” Cannon said. “It’s a much more varied album, I guess, from the last few studio records we’ve had. The songs are a little different.” Chesney offers plenty of textures on “Hemingway’s
Whiskey,” from “The Boys Of Fall,” his tender ode to America’s favorite sport, to “Somewhere With You,” the tale of lost love that immediately jockeys for position among his best songs. He covers a lot of
ground between those two very different songs. There’s the Pete Townshend-esque electric guitar intro on the rocking “Live A Little,” a war cry against the rat race — and a personal reminder to Chesney to slow down.

... That’s a hard decision to make when everybody’s making money. I felt like to protect that investment, it’s the most important thing to do, especially if I want to be doing this like my heroes still do.” A touring artist leads a pretty grueling life and Chesney is among the hardest charging acts on the road. While on a 65-date tour, Chesney said he would spend Thursday through Sunday on the road. He’d fly home to Nashville late Sunday night and hit the studio the next morning and work on songs. By Wednesday he was already consumed with the next weekend’s plans, even as he laid down tracks. “I didn’t want to do that again,” Chesney said. “Hopefully when people listen to ’Hemingway’s Whiskey,’ they can feel it’s pretty fresh sounding. It’s not tired sounding. It’s pretty energetic. It’s a little edgy.” Chesney and Cannon began working on songs for the album in January 2009. Chesney came off the road later that year in October and really started tinkering, taking

Kyker Farms Korn Maze adds new attractions By GAIL CRUTCHFIELD Community Editor The sign at the edge of Alder Branch Road claims the Kyker Farms Korn Maze provides a fun day for the whole family, and that’s something of which the Kyker family is working to ensure. The farm opens its gates for the third year today, offering more activities and amusements as they continue to grow their business. Randy and Jackie Kyker, their children Drew and Brooke Ann and pretty much every other member of their immediate and extended families have a hand in the venture, that started as a way to supplement the cattle, wheat and corn growing operation’s income. Randy admits they haven’t made a profit yet, but they’re nurturing the business just as they do their cattle and land to hopefully one day see it run in the black. Randy said he knows they need to be patient, that it takes time for a new business to turn a profit. Hopefully their continued growth will lure more customers through the gates. In their second year, the farm added a few new features that went over very well with visitors, Randy said. One of those additions were two slides made from large drainage pipes. The longest is 30 feet long, with a shorter one for smaller children. “But which one do they all go to?” Randy asked, before pointing to the larger slide. The farm also added the Meadow Maze for children too old to appreciate the Tater Tot Maze but not old enough to tackle the main one. The Tater Tot and Meadow mazes are next to each other this year, across from the main corn maze and haunted trail. The Kykers built the mazes from a field of sorghum stalks — the kind used for feed not for making molasses. Other new features this year include a set of swings next to the slides and the corn tub. The corn tub is a small backyard swimming pool filled with bushels of corn kernels. “When I was a kid growing up on, you had to find fun things to do,” Randy said. Going through the Straw Crawl — tunnels made out of stacks of hay bales — is the same way he would play in the hay loft of the family farm. He would also play in the grain bin, which is where he got the idea for the corn tub. The tub contains 30 to 40 bushels of kernels, which the children can wallow in. That should make for an interesting experience when moms sort the laundry. “There will be corn in shoes, pockets, underwear,” Randy said. One game Randy said he wasn’t familiar with until recently has also been added for all ages: corn hole games. Activities which have been offered since day one will also return, including the corn maze designed by Drew and the accompanying scavenger hunt. Brooke Ann comes up with the

When visitors find their way out of the 5-acre maze, if they’ve completed it correctly they should have a phrase spelled out. The Haunted Trail, hay rides and pumpkin patch and bonfire areas also return, as well as special events for groups such as schools, churches, scouts or even families. Randy said they have seen an increase in school groups coming to the farm during the brief time they are open for the season. During that time, they get to help educate the children about farming and show them where the food on their table comes from.
“We love to entertain the kids,” Randy said. He’s planted a larger crop of soybeans to give them an idea of other crops and show them their many uses. “We talk about the uses for these crops in everyday life,” he said. The children like to use their own imaginations on uses for crops, however. See Kyker, Page B2

The Corn Tub located next to the Straw Crawl is a new attraction at Kyker Farm Korn Maze this year; similar to a sand box, it’s instead filled with about 30 to 40 bushels of corn kernels.

The light at the end of this tunnel slide is indicative of how the Kyker family hopes this season at the Kyker Farm Korn Maze will be an improvement as they try to build their new business. Added last year, the slide has proved popular and swings were added this year.
“You should see what they do with the pumpkins,� Randy said, which the children can pick while on the hay rides. You’ll often see the pumpkins shooting from the end of the slide. “The make it all the way down to the bonfire,� Drew said of the pumpkins he’s seen launched from the slide. Groups enjoy reserving one of the three spaces for bonfires, Randy said, where they are welcome to bring hot dogs or the makings for s’mores. Randy said a family could spend half a day on the farm going through the mazes and letting the children play. He encourages families to come early so there’s plenty of time
to play before the sun goes down. The farm will operate on weekends through Oct. 30. They will open on Thursdays starting Oct. 7. Hours on Thursday and Friday are 4 p.m. to dark and on Saturday from 10 a.m. to dark. The Haunted Trail will open Oct. 8 and be open from dark to 10 p.m. Fridays and Saturdays. General admission is $5 for ages 3-5 and $7 for 6 and over. General admission provides access to all three mazes and play areas. There are additional charges for the hayride and pumpkin patch ($5) and the Haunted Trail ($10). Groups can schedule visits during the hours before the farm is open to the public, as well as reserve bonfire sites, by calling 679-4848.

Help yourself and others deal with change I had not been to the Wally World superstore in a while. Thus, when I walked through the door, BAM! As I stood and looked around, and then tried to find the couple of items I was seeking, I was reminded of a scene from the 1991 “Father Of The Bride” movie featuring Steve Martin and Diane Keaton. With the father (Martin) having mixed emotions about the wedding — and thinking of the expense — the wedding planner/decorator (Martin Short) comes to look at the home in which the wedding will take place. He makes a quick assessment and says, “It’s lovely. We’ll change everything.” Of course, I understand why superstores, supermarkets and other retail outlets keep moving things around. Studies have shown that shoppers who go to a store on a regular basis normally buy the same products over and over. As we do this, our brains learn our normal routes very quickly and we sort of buy what we buy time after time on auto-pilot without having to do much thinking or looking. The store does not want this. The store wants us to see other things. The store wants us to buy more, even if we don’t need it. But people don’t like change. We like the familiar. We get comfortable. We like sticking to the same pair of shoes or jeans (not to be confused with wife Jean) or shopping routines. Change, however, is a part of life. For superstores or any business organization it is an essential part of growth. But whether it involves a daughter or son getting married, or your supermarket moving everything around, or your organization restructuring, changing processes, hiring or eliminating people, gaining or losing customers, or whatever, change always involves some degree of stress. Even good or desired change is stressful. That’s just the way it is. Thus, when we deal with any type of change, I believe first of all we must understand and be prepared for three major types of changes. I like to refer to them as abrupt, gradual and planned. An example of a seemingly positive abrupt change is a job promotion that seems

to come from out of nowhere or maybe winning a major prize. A negative abrupt change is the disaster of 9/11 or an accidental death. Examples of gradual change include aging, the shifting of cultural paradigms, technical development and deterioration of roads, communities or organizations. Planned changes involve being visionary in family, community, business and all of life as we take a look at what’s down the road, assess our strengths and weaknesses, inspect past, present and future goals, and make adjustments accordingly. As we manage these three types of changes, it is imperative we do so with the right attitude. Good communication, the proper support and getting those affected by the change involved in the process of dealing with it correctly are all of prime importance. We realize that managing change is not easy, especially if we face it kicking and screaming. Many people can relate to the line attributed to actress Natalie Wood: “The only time a woman really succeeds in changing a man is when he’s a baby.” However, we might be better served to face change as did writer Washington Irving when he said: “There is a certain relief in change, even though it be from bad to worse! As I have often found in travelling by stagecoach, it is a comfort to shift one’s position, and be bruised in a new place.” — © 2010 by Carl Mays, speaker and author whose mentoring site, www.MyMerlin.net, is based on his book and program, “A Strategy For Winning.” E-mail to carlmays@carlmays.com, call 436-7478 or visit www. carlmays.com.

Arrowmont to host clay sculpture symposium Submitted Report GATLINBURG — Arrowmont School of Arts and Crafts has announced it will host a figurative sculpture symposium and exhibitions on its Gatlinburg campus from Oct. 27-30. “Figurative Association: The Human Form in Clay” will feature nine artists from six states who use the figure as the main theme in their sculpture. This event grew out of Arrowmont’s “Utilitarian Clay: Celebrate the Object” national symposia held every four years since 1992. The symposium is being coordinated by Program Director Bill Griffith with assistance from Debra Fritts, a Georgia ceramic artist and Arrowmont instructor; and Thaddeus Erdahl, past Arrowmont resident artist in ceramics. The artist/presenters include Tom Bartel and Janis Mars Wunderlich from Ohio, Robert Brady and Arthur Gonzalez from California, Fritts, Tip Toland and Beth Cavener Stichter from Washington, Lisa Clague from North Carolina, and Anne Drew Potter from Indiana. A series of lectures, panel topic discussions, demonstrations

and gallery exhibitions celebrating the human form will make up the three-day symposium. Additionally, each artist/presenter has invited a sculptor to be represented in the Invited Artists Exhibition. The exhibitions will be located in the gallery at Arrowmont and open to the public. “One vital, educational component of this symposium is the identification of 10 emerging artists in the ceramic sculpture field and the invitation to exhibit their work alongside the highly respected national Presenters’ Exhibition,” said Griffith. For more symposium details, fees and registration information, visit www.arrowmont-

SEVIERVILLE — Over the past several years, the Sevierville Department of Parks and Recreation staff has been replacing Winterfest display incandescent light bulbs with LED light bulbs. The transition will be complete this season, meaning all city Winterfest displays will be lighted with energy-saving LED bulbs. “The LED bulbs not only use significantly less electricity, they also last longer and emit light that is both brighter and more brilliant looking,” said Parks and Recreation Director Bob Parker. In addition to going green, the city will also install new Winterfest light displays this season on the Fred C. Atchley Bridge, and on the Highway 448 (Ultraflow) bridge.

Advice
Tell father how favoritism toward stepson upsets you
Zits
Blondie
Baby Blues
Beetle Bailey
Dear Annie: My father, who has been remarried for 17 years, has a stepson, “James,” who is 15 years younger than I am. I like James, but he is the son my father always wanted, the golden child with an interesting and prestigious job, who speaks two languages, is married with two beautiful children, well, you get the idea. I have dealt with my father’s favoritism for many years and never said a word. But two months ago, I sent my father a high school graduation announcement for my youngest son. We never heard back. When I called and asked if he got the announcement, he replied, “Yeah, and I don’t see what the big deal is.” I was crushed. His attitude rendered me speechless. I was holding back tears. The conversation continued about James’ child’s latest, greatest accomplishment. I can’t take it anymore and feel it may be easier to simply stop speaking to my father. Any advice? — Second Best Dear Second Best: Some parents find it difficult to praise their own children, but have no such reluctance about children they didn’t raise. And your father likely is living vicariously through James, but it doesn’t mean he loves him more. You must tell Dad how much his attitude hurts, or nothing will ever change. If you can do it calmly, face to face, it would be best, but even a phone call is better than silence. Dear Annie: We live in a very nice neighborhood, and there are a lot of kids. These children
run across the street without looking for cars. They ride their scooters in the middle of the street. The parents are nowhere in sight. I have teenagers, and while they know to be on the lookout for these children, they have lots of friends who come and go, not to mention other people who cruise down our street not expecting children to be in the way. What happened to teaching your kids safety rules? What happened to responsible parenting? When my kids were that age, one of us was always outside watching them. We aren’t particularly chummy with the neighbors, but we will wave to each other in passing. How can we get these parents to take care of their kids without causing trouble? — Bettendorf, Iowa Dear Bettendorf: Some parents are lazy and don’t pay attention to potential dangers until there is a tragedy. The next time you see one of these parents, you might casually say, “Your children are so adorable. I hope no one comes barreling down the street when they are running around. Terrible things can happen so quickly.” You also should consider teaching the children what their parents do not. Ask the parents if you can give the kids some cookies. While they are munching away,

explain that cars cannot always see them when they dash into the street or ride their scooters in traffic. Tell them to play on the sidewalk, or at the very least, to get off the road when they hear a car. You also can ask your local police for assistance. Dear Annie: “Father of Freddie the Freeloader” made it clear that he is upset his son “bailed” and got a GED. This irritates me. My niece recently received her GED a year earlier than she would have graduated high school and is now attending college. Yet her family is ashamed that she didn’t graduate with her class and get a regular diploma. My brother has two degrees. He is a flight paramedic and a registered nurse. He saves lives and earns more in one day than most people do in a week. He got his GED at the age of 18. It didn’t hold him back. People should stop focusing on how the diploma was obtained, and simply be happy, proud and excited that others are furthering their education. — Omaha, Neb.
