County, library give tasty lease to Dunkin’ By DEREK HODGES Staff Writer SEVIERVILLE — Dunkin’ Donuts is getting a sweet deal from the county to operate the cafe in the new King Family Library, moving into the space rent free for the first year. The Massachusetts-based pastry and coffee vendor, which just opened its first local shop earlier

this year, apparently approached the Library Board about leasing the 324 square feet of the hulking facility that was set aside for a coffee shop-type business. The County Commission approved a lease agreement during its meeting Monday, though that document only reflected the county’s renting the space in the library, which it owns, to the Library Board. In turn, that

group is dealing with Dunkin’ Donuts, says Sevier County Economic Development Council Director Allen Newton, who was asked by the members of the board to help with drafting the lease agreement. The deal provides that the corporation will pay a portion of the utility bills to be determined based on the part of the total area of the building it takes up.

Additionally, the lease calls for Dunkin’ to remit 2 percent of its profits to the county in the second year and 3 percent in the third. However, the first comes rent free. “We decided to do that because of the cost of them getting into the building,” Newton explains. “It’s hard to get somebody to See library, Page A4

Wears Valley set to showcase first Oktoberfest By DEREK HODGES Staff Writer WEARS VALLEY — More than 120 crafters and 36 food vendors will turn a usuallyempty field in Wears Valley into one of the largest festivals in Sevier County starting today and running through Sunday as the Wears Valley Area Chamber of Commerce presents its first Oktoberfest. The event has attracted more interest than organizers expected, including from film crews from two countries and a national lumberjacking competition, which is expected to hold contests for around 70 of its participants during the gathering. It’s all meant to be a celebration of what the chamber’s members call, “one of the most beautiful and picturesque areas you will find anywhere in

the United States.” “We think this is going to be a great event and it should be a good money-maker for the charities we support,” Chamber President Scott Street says. “We’ve really been amazed at the response we’ve gotten for our first event. It looks like we’re going to have beautiful weather and we’re hoping for the best.” The gathering, for which there is no admission charge, won’t bear much resemblance to the German festivals that share the name. Organizers promise it will be more fun than a barrel full of polka dancers, though. Throughout the event, which runs from 9 a.m. to 7 p.m. each day in the field on Wears Valley Road next to Tennessee State Bank, there will be pony rides, children’s inflatables, a climb-

ing wall, puppet shows and face painting. Additionally, a local farm has provided pumpkins to allow young and old alike a chance to pick out their future jack-o-lantern just a week before Halloween. For those who believe themselves too old to enjoy those diversions, there will be the arts and craft vendors, a display of more than 60 antique tractors and live music throughout the day on Friday, says Carolyn Street, who has helped organize the festival. “We decided this would be a

great way to help and promote our valley,” Street says. “This is such a special area and we want to do everything we can to help our community.” The chamber just formed in February but has already grown to 38 member businesses, Street says. Street, the owner of Sevier County Glass and Mirror, admits the group at first thought it bit off too much in planning the Oktoberfest, fearing they wouldn’t be able to recruit enough vendors to make it worth it. That fear was allayed when 30 food sellers and about 40 crafters signed up to participate in the first few weeks. It was annihilated when that latter number topped 120. “Our first worry was if we’d be able to get vendors,” he recalls with a laugh. “Now we’re just working really hard

to make sure we get people out to buy stuff from them because we want them to have a good experience with it, too. With the traffic that usually comes through that area on a normal October weekend and the advertising we’ve had in The Mountain Press, we’re thinking we’re going to snag quite a few people.” The chamber plans to divide money raised from the fees the vendors paid to participate and any other collections related to the event between the Wears Valley Volunteer Fire Department, Wearwood Elementary School and a few churches in the valley the group supports. Additionally, the fire department will benefit from a suggested $5 donation for parking. n dhodges@themountainpress.com

Roe to be honored by manufacturers group Submitted Report

Hydrant testing

U.S. Rep. Phil Roe, R-Johnson City, will receive the National Association of Manufacturers (NAM) Award for Manufacturing Legislative Excellence in recognition of his support of manufacturers and their employees. Those members of Congress who maintained a voting record of 70 percent or higher during the 111th Congress (2009-2010) will receive the award. Roe, whose 1st District includes most of Sevier County, received a 78 percent key vote rating. “Congressman Roe has demonstrated a true understanding of manufacturing’s key role in our economy and has acted to maintain and create manufacturing jobs in Tennessee and across the nation,” said NAM President and CEO John Engler. “Manufacturers commend Congressman Roe for casting the critical votes in support of economic growth, competitiveness and higher living standards for American working families.” Each key vote was selected by an NAM member-led advisory committee comprised of executives. Members of Congress are notified in advance when key votes are pending and why the key vote designation has been made. Recently, the NAM released its “Manufacturing Strategy for Jobs and a Competitive America,” which lays out a comprehensive plan for supporting jobs and a manufacturing economy. The NAM is asking all members of Congress to publicly endorse the Strategy. You can view the Strategy by visiting www.nam.org.

Study of coal ash ponds finds many shortcomings NASHVILLE (AP) — A review has found that half of 24 ash ponds at the Tennessee Valley Authority’s coal-burning power plants meet the minimum criteria for stability. However, officials said none of the ash holding ponds had the characteristics that caused the impoundment at the Kingston Fossil Plant in East Tennessee to burst in December 2008. The assessment obtained by The Tennessean on Wednesday said TVA is working to improve the others. Shortcomings at several plants included seepage from the walls of the dikes that hold back the damp coal ash, but the review said none posed any immediate threat. “All issues are being addressed,” said John Montgomery, with Stantec, a geotechnical engineering firm that assessed the ponds for the utility. “I’m not aware of any recommendations they haven’t picked up and taken action on.” The spill at Kingston dumped more than 5 million cubic yards of ash into fields, yards and the Emory River. It also brought renewed calls for regulation of coal ash ponds. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency has proposed setting rules governing regulation of coal ash

Fun at the N.C. State Fair

and is currently taking comments from the public. “None have the issues of Kingston, nor could they have failed,” said Bob Deacy, a senior vice president with TVA. Robert Gardner, a Greenpeace campaigner, questioned whether the timing of the announcement was intended to head off EPA regulations. Donna Lisenby, director of the water program at Appalachian Voices, an environmental advocacy organization, said she was glad TVA was looking at the structural stability and making improvements. But she said she wanted to see seismic stability studies done as well. TVA spokeswoman Barbara Martocci said they are planning additional studies. “We are in the process of screening all of our impoundments to determine risk and consequence of a seismic failure, and based on that, we will take appropriate action,” she said. The only ash facilities given a high hazard rating were at the Cumberland power plant, but not because the ponds might fail. The high hazard rating was tied to the level of the effect of a failure.

Plaintiffs’ attorney questions intention of proposed mosque MURFREESBORO (AP) — An attorney for opponents of a proposed mosque attempted Thursday to use unverified Internet information to prove that there is a militant motive behind the project. The plaintiffs are suing Rutherford County, claiming that the public was not properly notified about the meeting where the Islamic Center of Murfreesboro’s planned expansion was approved. The testimony comes amid a heated national debate over a proposed mosque near the site of the 9/11 attacks in New York City. Thursday’s testimony continued the plaintiffs’ effort to prove that Islam is not a real religion, but rather a militant movement trying to impose its moral code of law on the United States. That is despite an amicus brief filed in the case by U.S. attorneys that offered legal proof that Islam is a recognized religion entitled to constitutional protection. Computer technician Timothy Cummings said he was hired by one of the plaintiffs’ attorneys to search the Internet for content connected to the Islamic Center of Murfreesboro and its board members. Much of his testimony involved information that the plaintiffs tried to argue was removed from the MySpace page of board member Mosaad Rowash after he came under media scrutiny. This included pictures of the founder

of Hamas and a passage in Arabic that was purported to be a pledge to make Jerusalem part of Palestine. However, under crossexamination Cummings said he did not know whether the screen shots were actually from Rowash’s MySpace page and he could not establish whether anything he presented was true or authentic. “I was asked to present what I found on the Internet,” he told the court. County attorney Jim Cope objected, calling the evidence hearsay, but Chancellor Robert Corlew allowed the presentation, saying it could be stricken later if its veracity wasn’t

established. Also testifying Thursday was mosque opponent Jeanetta Alford, a Murfreesboro resident, who said she was convinced that Muslims want to overthrow the U.S. government. No evidence was presented to support her belief. Under cross-examination, Rutherford County Attorney Jim Cope asked whether she thought no mosques should be permitted in the United States. “That would be wonderful,” she said. In previous testimony, plaintiffs’ attorney Joe Brandon Jr. attempted to prove that Islam is not a religion and equated the Muslim code known as Sharia with terrorism.

invest and come in based on the kind of odd hours the library has.” According to the lease, the money the coffee shop pays in rent will go back to the county to help fund the operations of the library. The cafe area was already outfitted with many of the fixtures needed to run a food service operation, though the retailer did have to bring in its own equipment for coffee preparation and doughnut sales, Newton says. While the lease was only recently approved, the business has already been open for several weeks. “I talked to the manager there the other day and he said they are doing about as well as they expected with it,” Newton says. “I think they’re providing a great service to the patrons.” The lease agreement was passed unanimously and without discussion by the commissioners. During Monday’s session, the group also voted to approve: n A request from Walters State Community College for $400,000 to meet a required local match for an $8 million grant from the state n Adding Lake Shore Way, which will become Lake Shore Avenue, to the county’s road list n Confirming the recommendations for department heads made by the county mayor n Approving speed limits of 25 miles per hour on E.

Retired fire captain accused of burning down his home JACKSON (AP) — A retired fire captain who was demoted for his handling of a 2007 traffic crash in which a teenager died has been charged with arson. The Jackson Sun cited court documents in reporting 60-year-old Kinley Hullom’s arraignment Wednesday on charges of arson, filing a false report and evidence tampering. Madison County firefighters found fire coming through the roof of Hullom’s home in Beech Bluff early Monday. Court documents show investigators obtained a search warrant for a storage shed and found valuables from the home. Hullom was a battalion chief of the Jackson Fire Department in 2007 when a fire engine stopped at the city’s outskirts before reaching a burning pickup truck in which 18-year-old Nick Melton died. No phone listing for Hullom could be found Thursday.

Virginia University. “Every child who crossed a threshold in my classroom touched my life,” she said. “Teaching is the most honorable profession I know. I was filled with more happiness than in any profession I could have chosen.” Deaton’s husband, Bill, died unexpectedly in June. She paid tribute to him by calling her children William and Celia to the stage at the Doubletree Hotel with her. “I have no doubt that he is celebrating with us right now — not that his wife is Teacher of the Year, but he is celebrating the schools and the school system have been recognized,” Deaton said. “Good teachers are more

important now than ever before.” There were three finalists in each of the state’s three geographic divisions: a primary, a middle school and a high school teacher. Each division produced a winner during the night so Deaton became one of three finalists. Also in attendance were her principal, Nancye Williams and assistant principal, Connie Cottongim. Randy Kincaid, the school system’s institutional supervisor for primary grades, also attended. Joining Kelley were her children, Jonah and Kyndall, and her mother, Wanda Smith, as well as her principal, Perry Schrandt. “I feel great,” Kelley said. “I’m very happy for Mrs. Deaton.”

Thank You Gary and Sandra King

wish to extend a Special thanks to all our family and friends who helped in any way during the illness and passing of our daughter, Tamberia E. (Tammy) King. She was the granddaughter of Arvel and Wyvettia King and Dewey and Lillian Rolen. Thanks to her Special Friend and caregiver Lisa Gordon; Lisa’s daughter, Jaymi Walker and her four children, whom Tammy loved like they were her own. Thanks to all her Uncles and Aunts and tons of cousins. She loved them all dearly. Thanks to her life long friends, Karol Gillespie, Terri Holder, James Laux! Special thanks to all her co-workers at Methodist Medical Center; to her church family at Good Samaritan Episcopal; to our Church family at Bradley’s Chapel; to the Pall Bearers; to the Hurst boys that mowed the cemetery and trimmed up the sides of the driveway; to the guys that opened the grave; and to the Rhea boys and their hunting buddies that closed the grave.

Neal was born March 23, 1965, in Jacksonville, Florida. He began his more than 20 years as a firefighter at Jacksonville International Airport, where he was aircraft rescue trained. The remainder of his career was with Jacksonville Fire Rescue at Station #4. There he was an engineer on the ladder truck and part of the special ops team, trained in hazardous materials and high angle rescue. He rappelled from the highest point of the Dames Point Bridge. He truly loved his fire house family and his second home. He enjoyed giving tours of the station to school children and watching their faces light up as he told them about the fire trucks. He took great pride in preparing meals for the guys. When we would call and ask what he was doing he would answer, “Fighting fires and saving lives.” Neal had a contagious laugh, a beautiful smile, and big brown eyes. He never met a stranger and was always willing to help anyone in need. His gentleness and compassion for others made him a great firefighter. Among his many hobbies, Neal liked reading, learning new things and working with his hands making, building, or fixing things. He loved his big truck and fifth wheel and traveling in them. He graduated from high school in Sevierville, Tennessee, and he always loved the breathtaking views in the mountains and making annual trips to visit his brother and family that live there now. Neal was a loving husband to Debbie, his wife of 19 years: a loving dad to Neal Joseph Tarkington, Mike (Katie) and Chris (Jessica) Payne; and a proud grandpa to Ethan. He was a loving son to Eunice (Charles) Haspel and Otis (Aileen) Tarkington. He and his brother Bryan (Tina) shared a special bond, along with his older brothers, Dennis (Carolyn), Robert (Gail), and Billy (Kathy) Tarkington and his loving nephews and nieces. His brother Robert, brother-in-law, and nephew are also firefighters. Neal loved spending time with his grandparents, aunts, uncles and cousins, showing us all what a great cook he was, telling jokes, and just having fun. Neal was 43 years young when he went to Heaven on October 11, 2008, after suffering a heart attack. Our time with him was far too short, but he taught us so much and left us with so many wonderful memories. We are truly blessed with having him in our lives. He showed everyone that “it is not the years in your life, but the life in your years,” and for that we will always be grateful to him. He left such a void in our lives and will be FOREvER IN OuR HEARTS.

Fatal crashes involving teenage drivers dropping ATLANTA (AP) — Far fewer people are dying in car crashes with teens at the wheel, but it’s not because teenagers are driving more cautiously. Experts say laws are tougher, and cars and highways are safer. Fatal car crashes involving teen drivers fell by about a third over five years, according to a new federal report that credits tougher restrictions on younger drivers. The number of deaths tied to these accidents dropped from about 2,200 in 2004 to 1,400 in 2008, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said. The CDC looked at fatal accidents involving drivers who were 16 or 17. There were more than 9,600 such incidents during the five-year span, and more than 11,000 people died, including more than 4,000 of the teen drivers and more than 3,400 of their passengers. The report is being published in Friday’s issue of the CDC’s Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report. The rate of such fatal crashes has been declining since 1996. Experts credit a range of factors, including safer cars with air bags and highway improvements, which reduce the risk of death. The number of non-fatal accidents involving drivers 16 and 17 years old has been dropping as well — by 31 percent from 2004 through 2008, according to government figures. The decline is similar to the 36 percent drop in fatal crashes reported in the new CDC report. Experts say a chief reason is that most states have been getting tougher on when

teens can drive and when they can carry passengers. “It’s not that teens are becoming safer,” said Russ Rader, spokesman for the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety, an Arlington, Va.-based research group funded by auto insurance companies. “It’s that state laws enacted in the last 15 years are taking teens out of the most hazardous driving situations,” such as driving at night or with other teens in the car, he said. Graduated driver’s licensing programs, as they are called, began appearing in 1996, and 49 states now have them. Some are stricter than others, which may be one reason death rates vary by state, Rader said. The CDC found that Wyoming had the highest death rate, with about 60 traffic fatalities involving 16- and 17-year-old drivers per 100,000 people that age. New York and New Jersey, which have rigorous driving restrictions on teens, had the lowest rates, about 10 per 100,000. Wyoming’s driver’s license laws are laxer than some other states. For example, 16-year-olds are allowed to drive until 11 p.m., or in some cases even later, while other states force them off the roads starting at 9 p.m. The author of the report, CDC epidemiologist Ruth Shults, said rural states such as Wyoming tend to have higher rates of traffic deaths. One problem is that remote stretches of road are hard to reach quickly by ambulance, and even harder to get a critically injured person to a trauma center, experts say.

Toyota recalling 1.5M cars as woes continue By KEN THOMAS Associated Press Writer DETROIT — Just when Toyota thought its safety problems were over, they flare up all over again. Less than a year after it was tarnished by reports of runaway cars, the automaker recalled 1.5 million vehicles Thursday to address brake-fluid and fuel-pump troubles, drawing new attention to safety issues that have festered inside the company for years. The world’s No. 1 carmaker said there were no accidents or injuries connected to the latest recall, which covers some Lexus and Toyota models from the 2004 to 2006 model years, mostly in the U.S. and Japan. For Toyota, the latest recalls hurt the company’s image just as it tries to clear up old problems, said JeanPierre Dube, a marketing professor at the University of Chicago. Some previous braking and acceleration problems were blamed on driver error, he noted, but these problems were because of deterioration of parts. “This is starting to look more like a chronic problem for them,” he said. “It’s hard to imagine this can’t have some effect on how consumers are going to perceive the Toyota brand and to what extent it represents reliability.” Safety experts said it was an example of a new Toyota scrambling to clean up messes from its past. Toyota started getting reports of brake-fluid leaks in some of its models in February 2005, and it took more than five years to issue the recall. Toyota has now recalled more than 11 million cars and trucks around the world over the past year for problems including faulty gas pedals, floor mats that can trap accelerators, braking problems and stalling engines. Toyota took a hit on

its once-impeccable reputation, not to mention its sales. This time around, it chose to recall rather than stonewall, said Clarence Ditlow, president of the Center for Auto Safety, a consumer group. “The company is looking at all of these older defects and making a decision to do a recall, which they wouldn’t have done in their pre-sudden-acceleration mentality,” he said. While insisting that it never swept safety issues under the rug, spokesman Brian Lyons said the company is reacting far more quickly than it had in the past. “That is part of our commitment to the federal regulators and our customers,” he said. The government said it had received three related complaints since 2004. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration hit Toyota with a $16.4 million fine earlier this year for failing to promptly tell the government about defects in its cars. The new recalls affect 740,000 cars in the U.S. and 599,000 in Japan. The

rest are in Europe and elsewhere around the world. Honda Motor Co. also said it would recall an undetermined number of vehicles because of the same brake issue. Since the safety problems hit the news last fall, Toyota’s U.S. sales have lagged behind the rest of the industry despite numerous incentives to land customers. For the first nine months of this year, Toyota sales were up 1.4 percent. Overall U.S. auto sales increased more than 10 percent. Toyota spent more than $2,100 per car on incentives in September, up from about $1,500 a year ago — and at a time when the rest of the auto industry was spending less to woo customers. Rebates and low-interest deals were unusual for Toyota in the past, but incentives were necessary to win back customers after the recalls, said Jesse Toprak, vice president of industry trends for Truecar.com. “It’s a process that’s not going to be fixed overnight, but all they can do right now is damage control,” he said.

McWherter calls out Haslam on guns MEMPHIS (AP) — Democratic gubernatorial candidate Mike McWherter on Thursday said his opponent Bill Haslam is trying to backpedal on what he called the Republican’s “over the top” stance on getting rid of handgun carry permits. Haslam told a gun rights group earlier this week that he would sign legislation to drop permit requirements if such a measure was passed by the General Assembly. But he stressed to supporters at a Memphis campaign stop Thursday morning

that ending permits is not part of his platform. “I’m in favor of leaving the handgun permit requirements the way they are now,” the Knoxville mayor told supporters. There are about 300,000 handgun carry permit holders in Tennessee. To qualify, they must pass a handgun safety course and pay a $115 fee. Permits are revoked for felony convictions and can be suspended for pending criminal charges or for court orders of protection in domestic violence cases. “Having some gun regu-

lation clearly is in the interest of the public safety of Tennesseans,” McWherter said in a press conference outside the Memphis convention center where Haslam was speaking to state prosecutors. “This is over the top, it’s off the cliff,” he said. “It’s irresponsible.” The only question posed to Haslam after his speech to the prosecutors group was about the gun permits. Haslam repeated that he doesn’t favor changing the current law. McWherter, the owner

commentary

Supreme Court most powerful political force What is the most powerful political operation in the country in this 21st century? It’s the U.S. Supreme Court. The men and women in black are on their way to deciding their second national election in just the first decade of the century. In the year 2000, the justices stopped the counting of votes in the presidential election. This year they tilted (or mutilated) congressional elections by ruling that corporations are people, only more so. What they ruled was that corporations (and unions) or groups they sponsor have the right to anonymously pump millions of dollars into campaigns. Citizens can give much smaller amounts, but we have to reveal our names and addresses — “transparency” they call that. There is, to say, a heated debate going on about all this secret money. David Brooks of The New York Times and Al Hunt of Bloomberg News have taken opposite (and extreme) sides. Brooks’ analysis appeared under the headline: “Don’t Follow the Money.” Hunt wrote two days earlier under the headline: “Watergate Return Inevitable as Cash Floods Elections.” They are both commenting on the same set of facts: Because of the new Supreme Court decision, spending on next month’s House and Senate elections may top $4 billion, a record. Undisclosed cash, most of it from unnamed corporations, could be between $250 million and $500 million. As Brooks sees it, the money will have no impact; most candidates of both parties are perfectly capable of raising all the money they need. So, according to his reasoning, the money does not change the politics on the ground. What it mainly does is make media consultants richer. He writes: “I can see why media consultants would believe money is vitally important: The more money there is, the more they make. ... So why is there so much money in politics? Well, every consultant has an incentive to tell every client to raise more money. The donors give money because it makes them feel as if they are doing good and because they get to hang out at exclusive parties. The candidates are horribly insecure and grasp at any straw that gives them a sense of advantage. In the end, however, money is a talisman. It makes people feel good because they think it has magical properties.” Hunt, a more experienced pundit, says: “A prediction: The U.S. is due for a huge scandal involving big money, bribery and politicians. Not the small fry that dominates the ethics fights in Washington; really big stuff; think Watergate.” “All campaign funds aren’t the same. Even the purest campaign-finance overhaul advocates have trouble faulting small grassroots contributions. ... Large contributions from corporations, unions, trade associations or wealthy individuals are another matter; these donors often expect something in return. Few of those making sizable and secret gifts to the (Republican) effort are engaged in selfless acts of good governance.” “Ever since Watergate, politicians have debated rules on the size and scope of campaign contributions. The 2002 McCain-Feingold measure, which cracked down on contributions and was signed by Bush, a Republican, was the culmination of years of intense struggle. In subsequent years, the courts, dominated by conservatives, have chipped away at the law, Citizens United representing the latest and most sweeping decision.” The last time we ran an election in the shadows was 1972. Watergate. That year, with the re-election campaign of President Nixon, cash literally flowed into the White House to beat the date that new campaign regulations came into effect. There were little piles and drawers full of cash on the desks of middle-level campaign officials. Where did that money come from? No one really knew. Where did it go? No one knows. That was the lesson of giving and taking money without transparency or accountability. It damned near brought down the country. If Hunt is right, and I think he is, we are in for more of the same. — Richard Reeves, a presidential scholar and expert on six presidents, is the author of several books, including profiles of Richard Nixon and John Kennedy.

Two of a kind

Area legislators Overbey, Montgomery deserving of tourism award Look around you. On the weekends, the Parkway is so congested that traffic literally crawls. The restaurants, outlet malls, shows and attractions are, for the most part, doing booming business. Yes, despite the economic slings and arrows being suffered by much of the country, tourism is alive and well in Sevier County. It is no coincidence that the county’s No. 1 industry has prospered. It has been a team effort, involving city and county governments, tourism boards, chambers of commerce and marketing and public relations people. Also playing an integral role are the legislators who represent Sevier County in Nashville. So, it should come as no surprise that two local lawmakers have become the first to win an award recognizing the General Assembly’s “champions” in touting tourism not only here, but across the state. The award is shared by state Sen.

Doug Overbey of Maryville and Rep. Richard Montgomery of Sevierville. Officially, the award is called the Legislator of the Year and is given by the Tennessee Hospitality Association, which represents the interests of the tourism industry. Some 50 million people visit the state each year. That translates into roughly a $14.4 billion impact on the state’s economy — and 184,700 jobs in the tourism industry. That Overbey and Montgomery, legislators who call our area home, have won this inaugural award speaks volumes about the leadership and expertise they have displayed in this field. Tennessee Hospitality Association spokeswoman Leigh Lindsey said Overbey and Montgomery were chosen “because of their tireless advocacy on behalf of the state’s tourism industry in 2010 and their efforts to ensure the Department of Tourism received

adequate funding.” When money for a statewide cooperative tourism budget looked as if it might be scaled back, Overbey and Montgomery stepped in to spearhead the effort to make sure it remained intact. Although they represent our region, Overbey and Montgomery didn’t win this award just for promoting East Tennessee attractions. If they hadn’t shown concern for tourism from Graceland in Memphis, to the Grand Ole Opry in Nashville, to the Shiloh Civil War battlefield, to Chattanooga’s Rock City and the Choo-Choo, to our own Smoky Mountains, they would not have been given the recognition. Like former Dollywood marketing director Susan Whitaker, who has served capably as the state tourism director since 2003, we are lucky to have Overbey and Montgomery working for us — and all of Tennessee — in Nashville.

Quality of learning environment overlooked With all the discussion over improving instruction in Tennessee’s public colleges and universities, at least one major component is getting over looked: the quality of the learning environment. The campuses of Tennessee Board of Regents schools, in particular — six universities, 13 community colleges and 26 technology centers —while featuring many up-to-date academic, recreational and administrative buildings, also have far too many cramped and dilapidated facilities that house some key programs. ... Haven’t the governor, legislative leaders and top educators around the state been say-

ing that Tennessee must improve instruction of its college students, especially in science and mathematics, if we are ever to compete nationally and globally? How will that happen when students on its largest campuses cannot even conduct chemistry experiments safely? ... The state of Tennessee has not approved any campus building projects in three years, citing the deep recession and the state’s own budget problems. But these colleges and universities are where most residents of this state will go for the preparation they need to embark on a career. The state continues to find money for K-12 education; it must

extend that thought through, to the two and four-year programs where most of those K-12 students’ education culminates. ... It’s not just about having room to grow. Biochemistry, biology, physics and other sciences depend on up-to-date technology. Without it, current students will fall behind, and these schools will have a harder time attracting talented science instructors and students, who naturally will want to study at better-equipped programs in other states. ... We cannot stand still and prosper; we have to move forward, and that means bringing our academic facilities up to standards.

The 2010 Sevier County Bearettes celebrate their first-ever district championship Thursday night at Frank Lorino Park in Morristown. PREP SOCCER

Meet the IMAC champions Bearettes overcome trying season, earn team’s first-ever district soccer championship By JASON DAVIS Sports Editor

SCHS’s Alexis Conner and Paris Bentley celebrate Conner’s second goal of the night.

SEVIERVILLE — Early on this season many spectators were probably questioning Bobby Norwood’s sanity. The second year Sevier County coach had his young Bearettes playing a brutal schedule that featured such stiff opponents as Knox Catholic, West and Bearden, and, at least early on, it wasn’t pretty. Now, the young coach looks like a genius, as his Bearettes have earned their

first-ever district championship — thanks to a 3-0 rout of Jefferson County Thursday nigh at Frank Lorino Park in Morristown. “With the schedule that I put them through, they faced a lot of adversity,” Norwood said following the game. “I told them at the first of the season that it was going to be a roller coaster ride, that there would be peaks and valleys.” Thursday night was definitely a peak. After starting the year 3-13-1, the Bearettes have

won five straight games by an overwhelming 27-2 margin. And the Bearettes didn’t allow one goal in the entire District 2-AAA tournament. “They fought hard (all season),” Norwood said. “There were times this season that I wondered if they’d quit on me, and if I was going to get them back. But man, we fought hard and look where we’re at now. “The girls are playing for each other, fighting for each See CHAMPIONS, Page A11

“The girls are playing for each other, fighting for each other, we’re not bickering with each other, and we’ve learned how to play soccer as a team.” Bobby Norwood, SCHS head coach

No dice for Lady Tigers in 3A/AA title game

Bears hope to stay atop IMAC with win

By COBEY HITCHCOCK Sports Writer

SEVIERVILLE — The Sevier County Smoky Bears can’t count their playoff appearance before all the games are done. That’s why tonight’s game with South Doyle (1-7, 1-4 in IMAC play) is so important. The Bears can win the conference and guarantee a good playoff spot by winning their next two games, starting tonight in South Knoxville. The Bears have dominated their series with South-Doyle, winning seven straight over the Cherokees. Kickoff is set for 7:30 p.m. at SDHS.

KNOXVILLE — The No. 3 Pigeon Forge Lady Tigers couldn’t find a way to pull off back-to-back upsets, falling 2-0 in the District 3A/AA Tournament Championship contest at the No. 1 Berean Christian Lady Eagles on Thursday night in Knoxville. According to school officials, it was the first tournament championship in Berean Christian school history. “We just ran out of gas,” said Pigeon Forge coach Billy Moseley, following the loss. The Lady Tigers earned a trip to Thursday’s tournament championship game after surprising the No. 2 Gatlinburg-Pittman Lady Highlanders in a four-overtime and then shootout victory Tuesday night in Gatlinburg.

PREP FOOTBALL COMMENTARY AND PREDICTION

Big games tonight for G-P, PF playoff aspirations Tonight’s games have huge playoff implications for all of the Sevier County teams. Gatlinburg-Pittman and Pigeon Forge are both currently in according to the TSSAA’s playoff standings, as is IMAC frontrunner Sevier County. Seymour, despite having just two wins at the moment, is 14 spots down in the 5A playoff standings, and could potentially earn a playoff spot with two wins to finish the regular season, coupled with some bad luck from teams above them in the rankings. Sevier County (6-2, 1-4 in 2-AAA) at South-Doyle (1-7, 1-4 in 2-AAA) There’s no doubt, the Smoky Bears should roll in this one. South-Doyle has managed just 1 win in its last 19 games, and that was over IMAC cellar dweller Cocke County two weeks ago. The Bears, in the meantime, are playing some of their best football of the year, having won their last four straight by an average of 30 points. Add to that the Bears have a 7-0 all-time mark against South-Doyle, averaging a three-TD victory, and it makes it impossible to pick anything but a Cherokee thumping.

COLLEGE FOOTBALL

Quarterbacks running wild in college football By CLIFF BRUNT AP Sports Writer WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. — Purdue’s season appeared to be in hanging by a thread when quarterback Robert Marve went down with a severe knee injury a month ago. Coach Danny Hope knew redshirt freshman Rob Henry wasn’t ready to sling the ball around like former Boilermakers Drew Brees or Kyle Orton, but he knew his young quarterback was the fastest player on the team. Purdue used a bye week to tweak its spread offense and shift to a run-based approach featuring liberal use of the zone-read option play. The results have been stunning. Henry rushed for 132 yards in an upset win at Northwestern, then ran for three touchdowns in a victory over Minnesota. Purdue is one of three unbeaten teams in conference play heading into Saturday’s game at No. 11 Ohio State. Problem solved. Purdue has joined a growing number of teams using mobile quarterbacks out of the spread with a significant dose of that zone-read option. Michigan’s Denard Robinson and Nebraska’s Taylor Martinez quickly went from fighting for starting jobs to Heisman Trophy contenders doing it. Auburn’s offense has been nearly unstoppable with quarterback Cam Newton running a similar system. “It seems like every time you turn the channel, there’s a dual-threat quarterback that can throw and pass and do all this and that,” said Ohio State quarterback Terrelle Pryor, who has passed for 1,505 yards and rushed for 410 this season. “I think in college football, that’s one thing that’s pretty hard to stop. It cuts out a lot

of defenses that you can play against a quarterback.” Programs like Texas, Alabama, Nebraska and Oklahoma used mobile quarterbacks to fuel past national championship campaigns. While schools such as Georgia Tech, Army, Navy and Air Force still use old-school option systems, it’s the zone-read option out of the spread that has quarterbacks putting up video game-like numbers and defenses across the nation scrambling for answers. Four of the nation’s top 18 rushers in the Football Bowl Subdivision — Robinson, Martinez, Newton and Nevada’s Colin Kaepernick — are quarterbacks. Robinson leads the nation with 1,096 yards rushing in seven games. To put that in perspective, Nebraska’s Eric Crouch ran for 1,115 yards overall on his way to the Heisman Trophy in 2001. Robinson already has run for more yards this season than Vince Young, Tim Tebow, Michael Vick and Tommie Frazier gained in any season during their storied careers and he’s closing in on the single-season record for yards rushing in a season by a quarterback (Air Force’s Beau Morgan had 1,494 yards in 11 games

in 1996). But it’s not just the bigname quarterbacks who are gouging defenses with their legs. According to STATS LLC, quarterbacks have accounted for 15 percent of all rushing yardage in the FBS this season. That’s the highest total in the past 15 years. As recently as 2006, quarterbacks accounted for just 8.9 percent of the yards rushing. In 1996, that total was just 5.3 percent. Quarterbacks have rushed for more than 18,700 yards this season — already more than in any entire season between 1996 and 2000. In all, 16 quarterbacks rank in the top 100 nationally in net rushing yardage. If that holds up, it will by far be the highest total of the past 10 years. Michigan coach Rich Rodriguez, considered a guru of the run-based spread, isn’t surprised that the concept has grown because coaches have been picking his brain for years. “Maybe five or six years ago, we had a whole bunch of people visit us when I was at West Virginia,” he said. “Now there are so many other people that do it or do some version of it.” The zone read is simply

the latest wrinkle of the spread that defenses have struggled to catch up with. “That’s been in existence for a long time now, and I think what’s happened is it’s grown,” Auburn coach Gene Chizik said. “I think, like anything that catches on, people try to look at it and say, ’Hey, I can take it to the next level on this and do the next thing.”’ The approach is similar to the veer option of yesteryear, but it is more difficult to defend because the spread forces players to defend more space. “Defenses today are geared to load the box, and (the zone read) equals out the number a defense can play because the quarterback is involved in the run game,” Nebraska offensive coordinator Shawn Watson said. “So now the numbers are even. Instead of it being 10 on 11, it’s now 11 on 11, and you make the defense defend the entire field.” There are numerous variations of the play. Sometimes, a receiver will go in motion toward the quarterback before the snap. Other times, the running back or backs line up beside the quarterback. Nevada lines its quarterback up in a sort of halfshotgun formation, the now

there’s more than one way to run it,” Chizik said. “When you’re running it a few different ways — when maybe to the naked eye it’s the same way, but it’s different — for a defense, that’s where it gets complicated. And we’ll run it several different ways.” Virginia Tech coach Frank Beamer has had success using the zone read with quarterback Tyrod Taylor. “You hand it off to a dive guy like David Wilson, and it doesn’t take him long to go north and south, so I think there’s good stuff Cameron Newton there,” Beamer said. “When your first option is fast, your well-known pistol. Because the quarterback second option is fast and doesn’t always read the your third option is fast, I same player, defenses often think you’ve got something going.” struggle with assignments. “If you really study it,

however. “I think my girls tried very hard (against Berean Christian), but I think a lot was taken out of them from the G-P game,” said Moseley. “The girls looked a little bit sluggish (Thursday night), and I’d say that’s what it was. “But the girls put everything they had into it (on Thursday).” After holding opponents to no goals during five halves of district tournament soccer — along with four overtime periods — Pigeon Forge goal keeper Sunni McAllister finally let one get by 14:30 into the second half against the Lady Eagles, putting the Orangeand-Black underdogs in a 1-0 hole when Berean’s Mikayla Gregg netted a looping shot that dropped in just over McAllister’s hands and in front of the crossbar.

Berean Christian made it the eventual final 28 minutes into the second half when McKenzie Gregg hit an identical-looking shot as the Lady Eagles’ first goal. Pigeon Forge had several opportunities to put scores on the board but could never find a way to net one against Berean’s equally tough goal tender Lauren Dreitlein. The Lady Tigers were outshot, but by just a 20-15 margin. “I’m proud of every one of the girls, but we just couldn’t finish (against Berean),” said Moseley. “We had it right there in front of the goal several times, but that happens sometimes.” Pigeon Forge next travels for a region tournament contest on Tuesday night with its opponent and opening kick TBA. There’s a good chance the match-up will be at Kingston or Christian Academy of Knoxville, however.

Haley Fox (5, below) places an incredible header over a wall of defenders and past the Jefferson County goalie into the right side of the goal for the Bearettes’ third goal in their 3-0 district championship win. Above teammates Sherraine Villalobos (11) and Paris Bentley (9) celebrate with her moments later.

Kentucky fined for SEC policy violation

The Southeastern Conference announced today that University of Kentucky will be fined $25,000 for a violation of the league’s access to competition area policy. The policy, which went into effect on Dec. 1, 2004, states that “access to competition areas shall be limited to participating student-athletes, coaches, officials, support personnel and properly-credentialed individuals at all times. The violation occurred following Kentucky’s 31-28 win over South Carolina on Oct. 16 when fans entered the competition area of Commonwealth Stadium.

other, we’re not bickering with each other, and we’ve learned how to play soccer as a team.” Thursday night the team looked somewhat timid as they started play against Jefferson County, a team that’s been there and done that as far as district championships are concerned. “You could see the nerves, you could see the nerves in the warm-ups,” Norwood said. “At halftime we got them over there and talked a little bit of strategy, and you saw a whole different team the second half.” The Bearettes came out like a team possessed to open the second half. A early shot on goal by Alyssa Hale got the Bearettes coaches and bench fired up, and before too long senior Alexis Conner had the Purple and White on the scoreboard with a long, looping shot just out of reach of the Jeff County goalie. After a few nice saves from freshman goalie Marah Harrell the Bearettes offense was at it again. This time a Haley Fox pass set up another score from Conner, who rebounded her own shot to score yet again and give SCHS a 2-0 lead. Fox added a header on an Alyssa Hale corner kick late to seal the deal for SCHS. “Their effort and their intensity to come out in the second half and bury three in the back of the net and not give up a goal the whole district tournament after the season that we had — that’s very impressive,” Norwood said. The Bearettes will host Sullivan South on Tuesday at the SCHS Soccer Complex. Time will be announced this weekend.

PREP FOOTBALL

Seymour Eagles hope to make it 2 in a row SEYMOUR — Coach Jim Moore believes his young Eagles football program is improving, and they’re starting to see the rewards. “We’ve just been (getting) better all year,� Moore said. “You know, at the start, we had a bunch of young kids, but they’re not young anymore. They’ve got eight games under their belt and they’re starting to play a little better. We’re reaping the benefits of it.� This week the Eagles look to turn last week’s 21-14 win over SouthDoyle in to a two-win

steak against the Chiefs of Cherokee. Cherokee (3-5, 1-4 in IMAC play) beat the same South-Doyle team 27-16 earlier this month, but they’ll be playing tonight with a disadvantage. Starting quarterback Ty Ryans, who’s played well for the Chiefs, suffered a broken non-throwing hand against Sevier County last week. To make matters worse, the Chiefs backup QB was already hurt and a young fullback ended up taking snaps. The game will be played in Rogersville at 7:30 p.m.

COLLEGE BASKETBALL

College hoops may ban summer recruiting NEW YORK (AP) — College basketball coaches aren’t ready to give up their summer recruiting road trips. They’re upset over a proposal that would eliminate July men’s basketball recruiting beginning in 2012. The Conference Commissioners Association recently voted 31-0 to recommend the abolition of summer recruiting. The vote was first reported by ESPN. com. Louisville coach Rick

Pitino calls the possibility of the evaluation period being pulled “the most ridiculous thing I’ve ever heard of since I’ve been a coach.� Sun Belt conference commissioner Wright Waters says it’s time to clean up some of the issues that come with summer recruiting. Saint Joseph’s coach Phil Martelli, an NABC board member, says it’s too early for coaches to panic. He says the rule may not even be implemented.

Cougars claw through the competition

Submitted photo

The Northview Cougars, their coaches and cheerleaders pose for a photo after beating Carter 16-14 to finish their perfect undefeated 2010 campaign.

Northview Middle School footballers go perfect 8-0 Sweep through county opponents, others KODAK — It’s taken just eight years and the hard work of a combination of players from three small schools for Northview Middle school to reach their football pinnacle. The Cougars completed a perfect 8-0 season this fall, achieving the team’s

best finish in school history. The Green and Gold completed their perfect season with a win over Carter 16-14 earlier this month. The Cougars’ touchdowns in the contest came by way of players Jake Grosser and Zack

Sauls. The Cougars’ incredible play against county opponents this season gave them a 4-0 mark in-county play with wins over Sevier County, Gatlinburg, Pigeon Forge, and Seymour. Northview also defeated

White Pine, Edgemont, Rush Strong and Carter. This class of Northview Middle school eighth graders found similar success two years ago with an English Mountain Football Conference championship. Now the Boyd’s Creek and Catlettsburg athletes got to enjoy the same experience.

The middle school football program was started in Kodak eight years ago. The first team only had 18 players. Now with the addition of Boyd’s Creek Elementary and Catlettsburg Elementary players, the program has grown to over 40 participants. Boyd’s Creek is represented with nine play-

ers and their are from Catlettsburg. Northview graduates 20 players to high school next season. The Cougars were coached by head coach Davy Floyd, Chris Jenkins, Cory Harkleroad, Keith Oakley and Blake Cannon. From submitted reports

NASCAR RACING

CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) — Kasey Kahne will finish this season driving for Red Bull Racing, a move made possible when Richard Petty Motorsports granted him an early release, presumably to dump the remainder of his contract. Kahne will finish this year in the No. 83 Toyota, Red Bull said Thursday. He’s signed to drive for Hendrick Motorsports in 2012 and is moving to Red Bull next year as a one-season stopgap. With the early switch, Red Bull now must make the final two payments on Kahne’s contract, and he could be owed at least $2 million. “With our agreement only being for one year, there is a great sense of urgency to get started on 2011,” Red Bull general manager Jay Frye said. “With Kasey coming earlier than planned, we are excited to have a five-race head start.” Two people familiar with Kahne joining Red Bull said he’ll replace Scott Speed next year in the two-driver lineup. Kahne will take over Speed’s No. 82 team, but the car number will be changed to No. 4 to mimic what Kahne uses in sprint car competition.

The two people spoke on condition of anonymity because Red Bull has not announced its full 2011 plans. The flurry of activity came as uncertainty swirled around RPM, which is coowned by George Gillett Jr. and seven-time NASCAR champion Richard Petty. The organization has been plagued by rumors of shaky financial footing for almost two years, and it’s heated up again as Gillett tried last week to block a sale of the Liverpool soccer club to John Henry and his New England Sports Ventures group. This past week has been chaotic for RPM, which had its final falling out with Kahne in last Saturday night’s race at Charlotte Motor Speedway. Kahne wrecked fairly early, and

after his No. 9 Ford was repaired, he said he was too ill to get back on the track. The team used J.J. Yeley to finish the race, and Kahne was up early Sunday morning running a 5K as a fundraiser for his foundation. He said after the run that his brakes had failed for the third time this season, second time in three races, and he was tired of the nonsense at RPM. He also said a RPM employee he refused to identify questioned Kahne’s commitment. “I was told that I needed to start doing my part; (that) is what one guy told me last night after the race,” Kahne said. “I can’t control the issues I’ve had this year. I don’t know how many parts I’ve broke. If I really thought about it, I could come up

with all kinds of stuff. “You can’t control that as a driver. I’m doing my part. I just need the car. I work as hard as anybody out there.” RPM said it will use Aric Almirola in its car this weekend at Martinsville Speedway. The team signed AJ Allmendinger to an extension to stay in the No. 43 — Petty’s iconic car — and is adding Marcos Ambrose to the lineup next year. Ambrose is replacing Kahne, and Elliott Sadler has said he’s been told RPM is not bringing him back next year.

Dillinger subject of UT history lecture

Comedy Barn celebrates Adopt A Dog Month Submitted Report PIGEON FORGE — October is Adopt a Dog Month, and the Comedy Barn Theater is inviting 700 owners to attend the show with their adopted dog. During the month of October the theater will send out vouchers to eight states to select city animal shelters as a way to reward people for adopting a pet instead of buying one. “There are thousands of great animals out there that just need a second chance,� said David Fee, owner of the Comedy Barn. “We have tried to target shelters with a large amount of animals and little space.� The family variety show proves how great adopted dogs can be. Families will get to watch the group of 10 canines performing as

part of the show. The dogs go through hoops, jump rope, dance and more to the music of a live band. Each of the dogs was adopted by their trainer/ owner, Dawn Goehring and live with her. “We want people to be inspired by them so they will want to open their home to a rescue dog,� Goehring said. Each voucher will be good for two adult admissions to the show, and children under 11 are free with a paying adult. For the free show voucher to be valid the family must bring their adopted dog with them. The offer is good until the end of the year. The Comedy Barn has donated over $100,000 toward helping animals. For more information e-mail Goehring to animalbiz@comcast or call 430-3383.

Elliot Gorn will discuss John Dillinger during the Charles O. Jackson history lecture Monday at the University of Tennessee.

KNOXVILLE — John Dillinger, perhaps the nation’s most infamous Depression-era bank robber, will be the subject of this year’s Charles O. Jackson history lecture at the University of Tennessee. Elliott Gorn, author and professor of history and American civilization at Brown University, will discuss “John Dillinger’s America� at 5 p.m. Monday in Room 103 of the Howard H. Baker Center for Public Policy. The event is free and open to the public. “Elliott’s portrait of Dillinger provides a fascinating window on America during the Great Depression of the 1930s, and it also tells us something about the roots of our modern-day fascination with crime and celebrity,� said Ernest Freeberg, professor of history. “It also reminds us of a time when many Americans felt more anger at the banks than they did at the outlaws.� During the early 1930s, news reports carried the sensational details of the latest bank robberies committed by Dillinger and other well known criminals such as Bonnie and Clyde, “Baby Face� Nelson and “Pretty Boy� Floyd. After several escapes from jail and running gun battles with police, Dillinger was killed in a shoot-out with federal agents outside a movie theater in Chicago in 1934. Gorn’s most recent book is titled “Dillinger’s Wild Ride — The Year that Made America’s Public Enemy Number One.�

Turn problems into positive experiences Living in a major resort and conference area where the success or failure of a business depends not only on the economy but also on how well a business emphasizes the “hospitable� aspect of hospitality, I understand the value of a good “guest recovery system.� In an earlier column, I mentioned Ripley’s Aquarium of the Smokies in Gatlinburg was voted the Number One Aquarium in America by TripAdvisor.com. This is an extremely important recognition because the top ranking is determined by traveler popularity, consumer ratings and TripAdvisor.com editors. Of course, you have to be doing a lot of things right to receive a reward like this. But among my favorite things Ripley’s emphasizes is their guest recovery system. Ripley’s leaders Ryan DeSear, Steve File and Ed Shaffer (now GM at WonderWorks, Pigeon Forge) have told me some terrific guest recovery stories. Let’s face it, no matter how hard you try, even with good people and good training, things can go wrong. Regardless of what industry you may be in, hospitality, retail, wholesale, healthcare, travel — you name it — things do go wrong. Whatever the problem and resultant complaint, the important thing is to make it right. When you help the customer realize the problem is not typical of your organization and then you handle the situation in a professional manner, the person can appreciate your organization more than ever. Just the opposite of the guest recovery system that has helped position Ripley’s Aquarium of the Smokies favorably in the minds of travelers is a story told by fellow speaker Jan Smith. One of Jan’s colleague’s, Kay, went to a restaurant, ordered a beef brisket sandwich and was served pork. Kay informed the server of the mistake, and the server took the sandwich back to the kitchen. The server returned with the same sandwich, telling Kay the chef checked the sandwich and said it was the right order. Rather dumbfounded, Kay asked to speak with the chef. In their tableside conversation, the chef insisted it was the right order. Kay finally convinced him there was a mistake. The chef went back to the kitchen and

then returned. He said he discovered someone had switched the meat trays and Kay’s assessment was correct. Accepting no blame and showing no remorse, the chef offered to get her the correct meal. Kay declined. She was disturbed by his attitude, and the situation took so long to resolve that she didn’t have time to eat before keeping an appointment. The server offered a faint apology to Kay, but other than that, there was no offer of anything else and no steps whatsoever taken toward customer recovery. What was the outcome of this customer experience gone awry? What do you think? Kay has never returned to the restaurant — and she is not hesitant to share her story (and the restaurant’s name) in person and on the Internet. Kay’s experience could have been easily resolved, but the restaurant apparently did not value her patronage enough to take the necessary steps. A customer expects fairness, respect and a good experience. When something does go wrong, 90 percent of the time a customer is only looking for a reasonable resolution conducted with the right attitude. As I mentioned previously, when a company has a great customer or guest recovery system in place and rises to the top when dealing with a problem, the customer’s appreciation for the company usually becomes stronger. — Š 2010 by Carl Mays, speaker and author whose mentoring site, www.

The Rev. Charles W. Livermore, rector at Trinity Episcopal Church in Gatlinburg, blesses a pet at the recent pet blessing. Funds raised will be put toward Miss Ellie’s Mission, that has a goal of raising $1 million to help build a new animal shelter.

Event to be blessing for animal shelter Submitted Report GATLINBURG — Sevier County is one step closer to getting a new animal shelter thanks to participants in the pet blessing event at Trinity Episcopal Church. Fifteen dogs, one cat and their owners, and perhaps a few wild birds and squirrels, turned out for blessing in honor of St. Francis of Assisi, the Patron Saint of animals and the environment. St. Francis of Assisi was a preacher who founded the Order of Friars Minor, commonly known as the Franciscans. However, people often remember St. Francis best for his fondness of animals, including that he could communicate with animals and felt at one with all creation. Trinity Episcopal Church raised $95 from participants at the pet blessing and donated it to the local

Advice

Some don’t deal well with illness, death; seek grief counseling

Zits

Blondie

Baby Blues

Beetle Bailey

Dear Annie: How do you deal with a cold, indifferent, dysfunctional family? I was attracted to my husband, “Chuck,” in part because I thought he had a warm, loving family. Boy, was I wrong. In 21 years, they have never embraced me or made me feel welcome. My widowed mother recently passed away. She was sick for many months, and Chuck’s family was updated daily on her condition. The week she died was rough, and having my in-laws’ support and love would have been nice. At no time did any of them call to offer words of kindness. My husband specifically asked his mother to call me because he felt I could use a friend, but she couldn’t bring herself to do it. When Mom passed away, my husband’s aunts and uncles found out from other friends because my mother-in-law hadn’t bothered to tell them. It’s been a week, and neither my husband’s mother nor his sister has called to offer sympathy. They sent me a card in the mail. These people are emotionally disconnected. I have never understood why they don’t want a relationship with me. This last incident has hurt to the core and is causing problems in my marriage. What is wrong with these people? How do I move on? — Insignificant in the Midwest Dear Midwest: Some people are so uncomfortable with illness and death that they cannot bring themselves to be a source of comfort. And there are others who are simply emotionally closed off. We know your in-laws have been a disappointment to you, but you are not likely to

change them, and your grief is making it difficult to let go of your bitterness. This hurts your marriage, which exacerbates the problem with the in-laws. Please ask at the hospital for the name of a grief counselor. You need to take this one step at a time. Dear Annie: I think my husband has some kind of compulsive disorder. I’m a frugal person and buy only what I need. My husband, on the other hand, buys without thinking. He used to stock up on pants and shirts that he never wore. Then it was videos that we ended up giving away in their original packaging. Now he is spending hundreds of dollars on DVDs and CDs that he neither watches nor listens to. He puts the collection in a cabinet to show off to friends and family. He also saves newspaper clippings, old greeting cards, invitations, etc. Our home is getting really crowded, and I hate to see so much money wasted on things neither of us uses. What can I do? — Canada Dear Canada: It is not unusual to have a DVD collection, but if your husband is keeping old greeting cards and newspaper clippings, it could be an early manifestation of hoarding. Assign one area of your home where he can keep his latest collection. Every month, the two of you should agree to go through the rest of his accumulated odds

and ends, decide what is worth keeping and get rid of the rest. If he refuses or is unwilling to part with anything, it may be time for professional intervention. Dear Annie: You missed two very important points in your response to “Kay,” who was fired without a reasonable explanation. Companies don’t usually hire novices to “thin the ranks.” And more importantly, businesses often fire senior employees because of their age. Kay’s situation sounds like a good candidate for an investigation into age discrimination. If she is being replaced with a younger worker, she should contact an attorney who specializes in unlawful terminations. It happens every day, and businesses get away with it because their victims don’t fight back. — Pennsylvania Dear Penn.: When someone says “in all my 18 years of working,” we figure she must be under 45 and age discrimination is not likely. But you are right that it happens often enough, and those who believe they have been dismissed due to their age should seek legal counsel.
