PIGEON FORGE — Find your partner and put on your dancing shoes, it looks like this Shindig is about to get a lot bigger. The Tennessee Shindig, that is.

Owner Jess Davis told the Pigeon Forge Planning Commissions he plans to add three more theaters to the Parkway property, as well as a new indoor waterpark to the adjoining Spirit of the Smokies Condo Lodge. The complex of performance venues will feature

multiple productions and will be renamed Show City. The proposal came with an appropriately theatrical flair, with a pirate helping to introduce the idea. That ties in with what may be the largest part of the expansion, a 750-seat theater

that will host a new dinner attraction with a swashbuckling theme to be named Pirate’s Treasure Feast. Davis has spoken for years about his intention to expand the properties he owns on the See shindig, Page A4

SEVIERVILLE — Interim Sevier County Clerk Karen Cotter is keeping one of her only campaign promises with the announcement Thursday she’s cutting hours at some of the clerk’s locations. During interviews with the County Commission’s Steering Committee as it considered who should hold the post until a special election in 2012, Cotter vowed to modify how long the county office is open. While she made the promise specifically about the Pigeon Forge location, it is ironically the only center that won’t see a change. “It’s really just not feasible to stay open that late,” Cotter said Thursday. “We don’t have people coming in past 4:30 or 5, anyway.” Cotter said business at the courthouse office slows from a trickle by late afternoon to a drip by the time it actually closes now at 5:30 p.m. That’s why she’s confident the change won’t make that much difference, while it should help save the county some money. “Staying open just isn’t generating the income we need to justify it,” she explained. In the interests of saving that money, Cotter is making the hours changes effective Monday. In addition to shaving the time workers are at the courthouse each day by an hour, she’s also giving them an extra half hour before opening the windows in the morning. The clerk’s office operates a satellite location in Gatlinburg four days a week and that will continue, though the hours there will also change. They’re actually adding some time on one, while taking some from two others. On Monday, Wednesday and Friday, the office will now be open from 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., a reduction for Mondays and Fridays, but some additional hours for Wednesdays. On Saturdays it will still operate from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. Meanwhile, Cotter said she doesn’t feel like it would be fair to change the hours at Pigeon Forge yet, despite her vow that would be the first thing she would change in the office. That’s because she feels locked in by a memo that was sent out by the office at the first of this year describing the hours it would be open. However, that doesn’t mean the schedule there won’t change at some point. Cotter said she will be evaluating possible modifications and might make adjustments at the beginning of next year if they’re warranted. n dhodges@themountainpress.com

Former prosecutor having transplant By JEFF FARRELL Staff Writer PITTSBURGH — Local attorney John Sellars was in surgery Thursday and will have to return to the operating table today as doctors give him a new stomach, pancreas, liver and small intestine. Sellars, who worked for several years as an assistant district attorney, has a blood disorder that damaged those organs. He has been in Pittsburgh for two years awaiting a transplant; all the organs must be a match and all must be transplanted at the same time. “He got the call (Wednesday) afternoon that hey thought they had candidate organs,” said attorney Patrick Stapleton, who had been in contact with the Sellars family. ”He was actually already at the hospital at a doctor’s appointment.” By Wednesday night, doctors had determined the organs were a proper match for Sellars, and doctors rushed him into surgery. His sister-in-law, Kerrie Sellars, spoke to The Mountain Press by cell phone Thursday from Pittsburgh. He went into surgery shortly after midnight Thursday, she said, and the operation continued into Thursday afternoon. Doctors had to stop work in the afternoon due to complications, but hoped to restart it Friday morning. His attitude remained positive as they took him in for surgery, she said. “His attitude was, ‘Let’s do this,’” she said. Friends and supporters contacted them throughout the day, she said. “It’s just been crazy,” she said. “We’ve been overwhelmed, again.” Once the surgery is completed, doctors will have to monitor Sellars to see that his body accepts the transplanted organs. “It’s going to be a roller coaster, I’m sure,” Kerrie Sellars said. n jfarrell@themountainpress.com

PIGEON FORGE — The fight against suggestions of wrongdoing in city property dealings got a new combatant this week, as property owner and developer Jess Davis stepped in to defend his Realtor, former Mayor Ralph Chance. Davis calls claims in a letter to The Mountain Press by Tony Lee Rast, a frequent critic of Pigeon Forge’s government, “a ludicrous and sinister attempt to assassinate (Chance’s) character.” Davis’ River Divide Road property is one of the sites being considered by city leaders for a new wastewater treatment plant. Davis, like officials who have spoken about the matter and Chance himself, is furious about the suggestion that there’s some collusion going on to sell the land. “Rest assured, with all the battles that I have had with the city over the years, both in the courts and in the public arena, I would be absolutely the last person that they would approach to be involved in any shady dealings,” Davis says somewhat tongue in cheek. Davis has had his brushes with city government and has even been one of its toughest critics at times. However, he says he has respect for Chance and asked him to represent the property on the real estate market. Though there have been suggestions the city was looking at Davis’ land before Chance even left office in early 2007, Davis says that’s not true, pointing out the city approved his own requests enabling him to develop the site for private use. Rather, it was a group of private investors who hoped to put a resort on the banks of the river who first got Davis’ land on the market. At that time, Davis had an appraisal done and determined the property to be worth $19.5 million, a price the potential buyer was willing to pay. Davis says the deal fell apart when he wouldn’t agree to some of the terms. It was a few months after that, and after Davis upped the price to $21.1 million based on a new appraisal, that the city first approached Davis about using his land for the wastewater plant. “(Chance) told us sometime after that in 2007 that the city had approached

him and asked us to help the city (by) allowing a sewer plant on our land,” Davis says. “The first thing that my wife did was cry about the plant being near our home. But as we learned more about the new odorless technology and saw the drawings the city had done ... our feelings changed about that.” It was at that point that both Davis and Chance agree the former mayor came forward to volunteer to let another Realtor handle the property, worried about possible suggestions that there’s something improper in the arrangement. “Once the city became interested, he offered to forego his commission and step aside to avoid any appearance of conflict of interests even when there was none,” Davis says. “We refused to let him step aside because that would not have been fair to him.” Davis recalls only a few meetings with city officials through the rest of 2007. Since then, though, the two sides have been in negotiations over the site, with Davis saying he suspects the city sent new Assistant City Manager Eric Brackins — who played football on a team Davis once coached — to talk to him. Apparently that worked, with the price dropping 40 percent through the talks. However, it seems that might not have been enough for city leaders, who hoped Chance would be able to soften up his client more. “We are not going to give it away. Ralph has done such a good job representing us that city management became frustrated with him and requested that we remove him from being between us in negotiations,” Davis says. “I said no.” As a final sign Chance isn’t in the deal just to make money, Davis points out the ex-mayor took a pay cut on the deal. “Ralph does not stand to make millions as the (Rast letter) claims,” Davis says. “In fact, nowhere near that amount. He agreed to a below-par listing fee that he still must split with his broker.” In the end, Davis says he hopes the criticism will serve as an impetus for Chance, whom he calls the “best untapped resource in the city,” to get involved in Pigeon Forge’s government again. n dhodges@themountainpress.com

The Rev. Charles W. Livermore, rector of Trinity Episcopal Church, blesses a pet in honor of St. Francis of Assisi, Patron Saint of animals and environment.

Trinity Episcopal blesses pets, raises money for new 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 in Gatlinburg. 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 all to the local organization Miss Ellie’s Mission, which has a goal of raising $1 million to help build a new animal shelter in Sevier County. Find out more at www.misselliesmission.com. For information about Trinity Episcopal Church and services call 4364721 or visit www.trinity.etdiocese.net. The Reverend Charles W. Livermore is rector.

ANNUAL INDOOR PRE-HOLIDAY CRAFT FAIR

634,000 ballots cast so far in early voting NASHVILLE (AP) — Early voting ended Thursday in Tennessee where races for governor, Congress, the Legislature and others are on the ballot. More than 634,000 votes have been cast since early voting began Oct. 13, Secretary of State spokesman Blake Fontenay said Thursday afternoon. Election Day is Tuesday. In Tennessee’s two biggest counties, 91,169 early and absentee ballots had been cast in Shelby and 61,857 in Davidson by early Thursday. Davidson County Elections Administrator Ray Barrett said he doesn’t expect the numbers in his area to be as high as they were four years ago, when about 87,800 ballots were cast. “We’ll probably hit a few over 70,000, which is still a good turnout,” he said. Gov. Phil Bredesen, a Democrat, is term-limited and cannot run. In Congress, there are three open seats because of retirements. There are 3.8 million registered voters in the state. “This is a hot race for governor, so I’m hoping we’ll vote at least 50 percent of our voters,” Barrett said. Timothy Marchbanks of Nashville said he hopes whoever takes office will work to create more jobs in Tennessee.

Parkway between Teaster Lane and Sugar Hollow Road. He’s completed more minor construction projects on the theater and the lodge, as well as a restaurant there, but nothing has neared the scope of what he’s now proposing. The theater has been working with a show producer in Las Vegas who has helped develop other pirate-themed dinner shows in Los Angeles and Orlando. That man, Johnny Stuart, sent one of his former theater managers to serve as a consultant on the local project, Davis said after the meeting. The show itself will include song and dance, with a meal provided by the adjacent Wood Grill Buffet. In the mornings, Davis promised a “distinctly unique” breakfast show in the same space. In a smaller, 300-seat venue a multimedia show with a Christian theme will be presented. Meanwhile, the existing 990-seat theater that hosts Tennessee Shindig will remain, as will the show itself, though the stage there will be expanded some and a couple of new shows will be offered at different times. Among those are one that borrows from the talent of Stuart’s Vegas performers and another that Davis hopes will draw talent from across the country. “We intend to do a local and nationwide talent search for four of the most talented guys that we can possibly put together for a unique quartet,” Davis said. Davis hopes to move forward with architect Mike Smelcer on conceptual drawings in the coming days, steaming quickly toward letting a contract to do the construction. He believes this is the right time to be moving forward on the venture after years of dreaming of it. “With the theaters that area already in town and the new ones that are coming, we felt that now is the time to get very competitive and produce multiple shows in multiple venues on our property that can be combined in order to

give the guest the cheapest tickets possible without sacrificing our level of top talent,” he said. “It’s going to get very competitive in the entertainment business in Pigeon Forge, but in the end it will make all of us better and bring more people to town so that all of Pigeon Forge can prosper as a result.” In addition to the theatrical additions, Davis plans to tack a massive indoor waterpark onto the back of the lodge, which has recently been undergoing work that will convert it into an all-condominium complex from a standard overnight hotel. The site plan approved by the commission includes that construction. “Jess, I’d like to commend you,” Chairman Bill Bradley said after the proposal gained unanimous approval. “You’ve had a lot going on down there the last few years.” During the session, the group also voted to approve: Special Events n Titanic Museum Attraction Winter Wonderland kick off Nov. 12-13, professional ice sculpture event Jan. 22 and W4S April 9-10 at 2134 Parkway n Holy Cross Church annual Our Lady of Guadalupe procession/ parade Dec. 12 at 144 Wears Valley Road n Heritage Carriage Rides and Pictures at Waldens Landing Thursdays through Saturdays in November, at MainStay Suites Nov. 15-19, at Black Bear Jamboree Nov. 15 and at Clarion Inn Nov. 25-28 Subdivision n Minor resubdivision of Spirit of the Smokies PUD Lots 2A-R and 2B-R at 2385 and 2391 Parkway Site Plans n Burke Printing, Lot 23R of Twin Bridges subdivisions No. 2 n Krispy Kreme storage addition at 3974 Parkway Planning Region Item Subdivisions n Final re-subdivision of the Americana Community Lots 1R, 2R, 3R, 4R and 8R on Crestview Drive off Battle Hill Road. n dhodges@themountainpress.com

Polls gone wild: Political gripes in the Internet age By DAVID ESPO AP Special Correspondent WASHINGTON (AP) — When a widely publicized poll showed Republican John Kasich with a commanding, 10-point advantage in Ohio’s governor’s race, aides to Democratic Gov. Ted Strickland fought back hard. Against the poll. “With just two weeks until Election Day, it is our opinion that the Quinnipiac polls are irresponsible, inaccurate and completely removed from the reality of the Ohio governor’s race,� the campaign said in a statement that noted other private and public surveys were showing a much closer contest. The Quinnipiac University Polling Institute, an organization with an unchallenged reputation for nonpartisanship, responded mildly. “We stand by our numbers and our overall record for reliability,� said Doug Schwartz, the organization’s polling director. The flare-up underscored a widely held view among both politicians and pollsters that polls, once used largely to help a candidate shape strategy, increasingly can affect the outcome of political campaigns in the Internet Age. Candidates and their allies instantly disseminate bare-bones results, seizing on those that reflect well on their own prospects, ignoring the rest and generally skipping over details that might caution people about reading too much into them. “They can affect contributions. They do affect news coverage in a substantial way. They can affect volunteers. They can affect (voter) interest, and through all those things can affect the outcome� of a race said Mark Mellman, a Democratic pollster not involved in the Ohio governor’s contest. Democratic complaints this year are sometimes dismissed as sour grapes in a campaign trending against them. But Republicans, too, express unease about the proliferation of polls. “There’s a great deal of

frustration with media polls, which I don’t think spend the kind of money to do this the proper way,� said Rob Jesmer, the executive director of the National Republican Senatorial Committee. According to HuffPost Pollster, 26 polls have been released on the StricklandKasich race since Labor Day by 13 organizations. An additional 22 surveys cover the Illinois Senate race, 21 a three-way Florida Senate contest and 20 the contest in Nevada. As in Ohio, many produce startlingly different results within the space of a few days for reasons that go unexplained in the daily communications battle of modern-day campaigns. “The public has an absolute right to be skeptical about any polling information� that doesn’t include detailed material, said Richard Czuba, whose Detroit-based firm, Glengariff Group, Inc., does survey work for The Detroit News and WDIV Local 4. Jesmer’s statement, suggesting that not all polls are equal, hints at the complexities involved. Demographics — making sure a survey reflects the views of a proper mix of men, women, older and younger voters, Republicans and Democrats — are critical to producing a poll that is reliable. A pollster’s decisions on which respondents are likely to vote is key. Professional pollsters also differ on another big issue. Most if not all firms that work for candidates and the major political parties, as well as Quinnipiac and some other organizations, use live phone operators to ask questions. Other well-known pollsters such as Rasmussen, Public Policy Polling and SurveyUSA Research rely on automated calls, in which an individual who answers the phone responds to a series of recorded questions by touching the appropriate number on the keypad. Automated calls are cheaper, but a debate flourishes about their relative

reliability. “I am a firm advocate of live operator telephone calls,� said Czuba. “For one thing, you know who is on the other end of the call. If you are doing operator calls, you can screen out the 13-year-old who thinks it would be fun to go along and say, sure, they are eligible to vote.� “We were formed to give people a lower-cost polling option,� said Tom Jensen, the head of Public Policy Polling, and he and others defend surveys done by recording. “Generally speaking, the automated survey process is identical to that of traditional, operator-assisted research firms such as Gallup, Harris, and Roper,� Rasmussen says on its website.

Haslam would discourage lawmakers on guns bills By ERIK SCHELZIG Associated Press

it would encourage lawmakers to do away with permits. The Jackson businessman and son of former Gov. Ned McWherter has made the issue a main staple of campaign appearances and television ads. Haslam in turn released a TV spot this week decrying his opponent’s negative ads as part of the “silly season� before the election. Haslam said reporters are more interest in focusing on conflicts than on the candidates’ plans for the state’s annual spending plan. “You guys want to focus on those issues,� he said. “We’ve had 10 days of gun stories, and not one saying, ’Yeah, I wonder who has done their homework on the budget.�’ Haslam said he might have more success in working with the Legislature than Democratic Gov. Phil Bredesen did after Republicans took control of both chambers in 2008. “Maybe with a Republican Legislature and Republican governor, you have an advantage of saying, ’We have to set priorities about what we’re going to talk

about,�’ Haslam said. “We have enough battles on our hands with some of these big issue, so let’s just worry about those.� Haslam was joined in campaign stops around the northwestern part of the state by Republican U.S. Sens. Lamar Alexander and Bob Corker. Alexander, who has also served two terms as Tennessee governor, said after an event in Dyersburg that he was aware of the debate over guns, but that he hasn’t delved into the specifics. “A good rule of thumb in politics is: Don’t pay attention to anything said in the last week of the campaign,� he said with a laugh.

PARIS, Tenn. — Republican gubernatorial candidate Bill Haslam expressed frustration Wednesday about media attention that he said was unwarranted over his position on gun laws when the real issues in the campaign should be the state budget and jobs creation. “Not only am I saying that’s not going to be a priority for me. I’m going to encourage the Legislature for that not to be a priority for them,� Haslam said in an interview with The Associated Press on his campaign bus in West Tennessee. State budget pressures are much more pressing, he said. “And if I’m elected governor, I’m going to say let’s don’t get distracted by other things right now,� the Knoxville mayor said.

A former Catholic priest has pleaded not guilty to Tennessee charges of sexual abuse of a youth. It was reported William Casey entered his plea Thursday in Sullivan County to aggravated rape and criminal sexual conduct. A preliminary hearing was scheduled for Feb. 2 with trial set to begin April 11. William Tucker of Jeffersonville, Ind., has gone public with claims that he was molested over five years when he was an altar boy at St. Dominic’s Catholic Church in Kingsport. Casey has been indicted in three states on abuse allegations involving Tucker. A case against him is pending in Scott County, Va., where Casey pleaded not guilty.

Souper Bowl to be held Nov. 4

Arrowmont School will host the annual Souper Bowl, a benefit for the United Way of Sevier County, from 5-6:30 p.m. Nov. 4 in the Arrowmont dining hall. Tickets are $20. Artists make ceramic bowls that are filled with soup prepared by Arrowmont’s kitchen staff. Patrons select the bowl of their choice, which they will be allowed to keep. Tickets may be purchased in advance at the school or from Arrowmont staff members. They may be available at the door the night of the event. For more information or to purchase tickets, call 436-5860.

Brooks said he likely will invite other performers to participate and left the door open for multiple performances if there is demand. There should plenty: He is the best selling solo artist in U.S. history with more than 128 million albums sold and his time away from recording only seems to have heightened his fans’ interest. Tickets to his initial run of Vegas shows sold out in hours and there will likely be high demand for benefit tickets.

NEW YORK (AP) — Mariah Carey is going to be a mommy. The superstar singer confirmed on NBC’s “Today” s h o w Thursday that she and husband Nick Cannon are expecting their first child. Carey Carey says the baby is due in the spring. Carey had declined to discuss her pregnancy, the subject of rampant speculation for months, until now. Carey and Cannon have been the subject of a baby watch since they got married after a whirlwind romance two years ago. Carey said the couple was actually surprised to discover that she was pregnant at that time, but she had a miscarriage soon afterward.

commentary

California may signal surprises Yes, you can get too much of a good/ bad thing. I suspect many Californians would be glad to vote for Meg Whitman as governor if she would just take her commercials off the air. For almost a year, people here have begun and ended each day with the image of Meg on their television screens. The ubiquitous $200 million woman — that’s about $200 million of her own money spent on her own campaign — has a rather simple message: “I’m here!” Also “I ran a business and I’m richer than you. Way richer.” For nuance, the Republican candidate adds that she is not “a career politician.” No, what she is is proof that whoever said you can never be too rich or too thin was wrong. The “career politician” she is attacking is, of course, her Democratic opponent, Jerry Brown, who was too thin the first time he was governor in the 1970s. Well, he’s back! And thin now only on top. The first time around he had thick dark hair. No more. This was always meant to be a weird election in the California manner. The weirdest thing happened last Sunday. After months of neck-and-neck polls, a new poll by the Los Angeles Times and the University of Southern California was reported in the Times under the headline: “Brown’s lead doubles in one month — Whitman loses ground in key voter blocs.” It seems, according to the poll, that Attorney General Brown, former governor, former mayor of Oakland, former secretary of state, has jumped to a 52 percent-to-39 percent lead among likely voters. It’s not that Brown, with all due respect, has run a dazzling campaign. Obviously, he is better informed than Whitman, at least where politics and government are concerned, but this “seismic” shift, to use a California word, must have something to do with Whitman. How long must folks wait to get this humorless blond lady, lecturing them every 10 minutes, out of their homes? Or perhaps, something more is going on. Have all Republicans, or conservatives or tycoons, peaked too soon? If this election had been held a month ago, I think Whitman would have won and so, too, would her running mate, the former president of Hewlett-Packard, Carly Fiorina, running against Sen. Barbara Boxer. The Democrats, at least, may be benefitting from Republican overspending and overexposure. The Times/USC Poll reported that Boxer was eight points ahead of Fiorina, who has had the sense to spend only double-digit millions of her own fortune. The poll numbers also seemed to be moving in a more liberal direction on two controversial propositions. Proposition 23, which would have effectively killed California’s pioneering efforts to limit greenhouse gases, a proposition backed by oil companies, is supported by only 32 percent of likely voters. Proposition 25, which would change the law mandating a two-thirds vote in the state legislature to pass a budget and return to the old majority rule standard, is supported by 58 percent of likely voters. Interesting stuff. In every case, as the campaign here drags on — both Whitman and Fiorina had to go through serious primary campaigns — voters appear to be moving a bit to the left, toward Democrats and liberal positions, in the closing days of the campaigning. I have traveled in only six states during this campaign, but at the moment it appears to me that, while the California shifts may be more dramatic than most, there is some momentum on the Democratic side nationally as well. Surprising? Well, that’s the word pundits use on election night when things don’t go as they predicted. But if the country goes as California goes — a rarity — we could indeed be in for some surprises next Tuesday night. — Richard Reeves, a presidential scholar and expert on six presidents, is the author of several books, including profiles of Richard Nixon and John Kennedy.

Editorial

The safe alternatives Avoid door-to-door activity on Halloween; try an organized event instead When Halloween falls on a Sunday, it makes things more complicated for everybody. Do you trick-or-treat on Saturday or wait until Sunday? Do homeowners have to provide candy both nights? Here is a simple solution: Don’t go door to door seeking candy. Go to a Halloween alternative. Some are at churches, and some are community events hosted by clubs or governments. They are safe and entertaining and provide candy like the regular trick-ortreaters would get. You don’t have to worry about traffic, mean homeowners, bad weather or irritated dogs. There are games, costume contests and more. Halloween has become a dangerous activity in many communities. Gone are the days when you could get your children dressed, then send them on their way to scour the neighborhood in search of candy.

Remember the homemade popcorn balls you’d find at some homes? No more. These days everything has to be wrapped individually, and you don’t eat foods that are not sealed. Throw in traffic and cold air, and you have the makings of an unpleasant and even risky evening of fun. Alternatives to trick-or-treat activity have expanded, and that’s a good thing. Churches, civic clubs and local governments now sponsor events that are just as much fun, but better organized, safer and more controlled. Children of all ages can find plenty to do and enough candy to satisfy their sweet tooth. Pigeon Forge Community Center hosts an event. In Kodak several churches have come together for a massive Halloween alternative party at Smokies Park. On Sunday in Gatlinburg the city and aquarium are sponsoring a fun time on the aquarium plaza.

Check our community calendar. Ask at your church or call your community center. Most events will be held on Sunday, but there are some Halloween-related activities on Saturday as well. Nobody wants to eliminate Halloween, even if they’d like to move away from its occult aspects and scary costumes. The idea is to offer something different, something that emphasizes the traditional without the more unseemly and controversial aspects. Children can have as much fun attending one or more of these events as they would going door to door, especially when so many households choose to leave the lights off and not answer the door, or go out for the night. Take in a Halloween alternative this year, Avoid the dilemma of observing the traditions Saturday or Sunday. Hey, why not both? Just stay off the streets and away from the houses.

Watch your diet to prevent onset of diseases A federal report on obesity and diabetes and their likely impact on U.S. health care costs in the future is cause for considerable worry. The analysis by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, released Friday, suggests that as many as one 1 of 3 American adults could have diabetes by 2050. Since people with diabetes have medical costs twice that of those without the disease, the economic shock of such an epidemic, if it should occur, could be catastrophic to a nation already struggling to cope with soaring medical costs. Currently, the CDC reports, about one in 10 American adults has diabetes and about 23.6 million people of all ages in the country

are living with the disease. Another 6 million are unaware they have the disease and about 57 million people are pre-diabetic, which means they are candidates to develop the disease. ... The purpose of the new report is twofold. Clearly, the agency wants to raise awareness about an ominous health care trend. Obesityfueled diabetes already is a leading cause of blindness, lower limb amputations, heart attacks, strokes and dementia in the United States, according to a CDC official. That toll will rise as the number of people with diabetes increases. The warning is timely. It is useful because many cases of diabetes are preventable. About 5 to 10 percent of people are born with type 1 diabetes, a condi-

tion which makes it impossible for them to produce insulin. ... Changes in the current U.S. lifestyle could significantly slow the predicted increase in diabetes, especially among population groups — blacks, Hispanics, American Indians and Alaska native adults — that are up to twice as likely as white adults to have diabetes. It is easy, of course, to recommend and to promote such changes. It is something altogether different to make that change occur. Physicians and public health officials have been telling Americans for years to watch their diet and exercise more to maintain a healthy weight and to reduce the chance of developing diabetes and other preventable but debilitating illnesses. ...

Highlanders sink Tigers playoff hopes G-P nets easy win in battle of 3-AA rivals By COBEY HITCHCOCK Sports Writer PIGEON FORGE — It was like shaking a can of soda only to have nothing happen when the top was popped. The homestanding Pigeon Forge Tigers got off on a quick wrong foot and were flat the rest of the night in a 35-8 loss to the visiting county and District 3-AA rival Gatlinburg-Pittman Highlanders in Hammonds Bowl IV on Thursday night. “We just got our butts kicked,” said Pigeon Forge coach Lee Hammonds, who dropped to 0-4 in games coached against his father, 39th-year G-P coach Benny Hammonds. “G-P came in here wanting to win this ball game, and it was embarrassing to us and this community, and G-P just kicked our butts, bullied us around and kicked us around. “We just couldn’t get anything going offensively, and they definitely controlled the line of scrimmage.” Senior Jeremy Hibbard got the Blue and Gold off to a good start with a 31-yard return to the Highlanders 49 on the opening kick, and G-P scored three plays later when senior running back Walter Barber hit the 3-hole and cut it back to the right for an untouched 35-yard score with 10:54 in the opening frame. Junior kicker Brandon Merritt’s PAT was true, making it 7-0 Highlanders right off the bat. Pigeon Forge began its first possession at its own 17 and started with a slant pass from sophomore quarterback Cory Fox to junior Chase Travis, back from a high ankle sprain that had him sidelined for five weeks. But instead of a big opening play for the Orange and Black, Travis was hit and fumbled the ball back to G-P with 10:41 in the first, giving the Highlanders a first down at the Pigeon Forge 35. Two plays later, Barber scored his second of the night with a three-yard plunge through the 2-hole with 10:18 in the quarter. The score was set up by a great 32-yard catch from senior quarterback Tye Marshall to senior receiver Ron Durbin, who made the over-the-head snag while fully extended, missing a G-P recordtying touchdown grab by just three yards on the play. “That Ron Durbin just keeps making plays,” said Benny. “That (32-yard) catch was as good of a high school play as I’ve ever seen. Man, he got airborne for at least eight feet and caught that football. I didn’t think there was any way he could get to that ball, let alone hanging on even after getting his breath knocked out of him by falling on the football. It was just a

Gatlinburg-Pittman’s Walter Barber ran roughshod over Pigeon Forge’s defenses most of the night, en route to a three-TD performance. The first-year player for the Highlanders also went over the 1,000-yard mark on the season. fantastic play, and a good throw and catch by Tye and Ron. “That’s what those two work on every day and on the weekends. Durbo just lives it and eats it, and that’s his life. He wants to be a good student, and he wants to be a good football player ... and that shows up on the football field on (game) night.” Merritt’s PAT made it 14-0 G-P with less than two minutes off the first-quarter clock, and things went from bad to worse for the Tigers after that. “They went right down the field like it was nothing and scored,” said Lee. “And we had a little play in across the middle to take advantage of their man coverage, and we catch and fumble the ball, and then they go right back down the field and score again. “We just couldn’t hold on, and we couldn’t get anything going.” Pigeon Forge also couldn’t catch a break or a slant pattern the rest of the night, missing several would-be catches that could have quite possibly gone for quickstrike scores. G-P’s Durbin ended up catching his 10th TD pass of the season with 5:16 until intermission on a sweet 62-yard catch-and-run. Marshall threw it high and deep See HIGHLANDERS, Page A13

Bears’ grizzly defense takes on IMAC’s top rushing attack By JASON DAVIS Sports Editor

Jason Davis/The Mountain Press

Sevier County’s Ronnie Homerding (left) and Jake Reppert (right) enjoy some time on the sidelines at the end of the SouthDoyle game last week. The pair have combined for 148 tackles this season and are the Bears’ two leading tacklers.

MORRISTOWN — Tonight the Smoky Bears can earn themselves the right to be called backto-back champs of the IMAC. Even though it may be technically a cochamps moniker, the Bears will take it. And if they win and Morristown West beats Seymour, the Bears should be the IMAC’s top seeded team in the TSSAA brackets Saturday afternoon. But first the Bears must handle their business against Morristown East tonight. The Hurricanes possess the conference’s top three rushers as part of their deadly running attack, which is something the Bears defense will have to confront head-on.

Morristown East’s Cody Ricker, Matt Thompson and Chase Brunson have been confounding opposing teams all season. Sevier County’s top two tacklers, defensive tackles Jake Reppert and Ronnie Homerding, will have to be on top of their game, as will the Purple and White’s defensive ends and linebackers. In the meantime, the Bears offense, led by QB Danny Chastain, running backs Dakota Cogdill and Bubba Floyd and receivers Bryant Gilson, Brett Pippin and Dillon Cate, might have to put up big points to outscore a team that’s putting up 30-plus points in IMAC games. The game is set to start at 7:30 p.m. at Morristown’s Burke-Toney Stadium. mpsports@themountianpress.com

PREP FOOTBALL COMMENTARY AND PREDICTIONS

Games of utmost importance during final week of the season These are the final games of the regular season and carry huge weight for both Sevier County teams that will be playing tonight in regards to the TSSAA football playoffs.

Sevier County (7-2, 5-1) at Morristown East (5-4, 4-2) Seymour (3-6, 3-3) hosts Morristown West (6-3, 5-1) Coach Jim Moore’s Seymour Eagles have had a roller coaster season in 2010. From the early struggles with nondistrict opponents to the midseason scoring drought to current 2-game win streak, the Eagles’ year has seen some ups and downs. Tonight Seymour hopes to make it all pay off with a upset win over Morristown West. A win over the Trojans would give the Eagles hope that Saturday’s announcement of the state’s TSSAA playoff brackets would include their names, while a loss would most assuredly end their season. Currently the Eagles sit four spots outside the playoffs, according to TSSAA.org’s playoff standings, behind Kenwood, Cumberland County, White County and Clinton for the final 5A playoff spot. A win over a team with a winning record, like Morristown West, would be extremely valuable in the state’s playoff formula, and the Eagles would likely live to play another week. While West’s record might seem to indicate Seymour is a big underdog, an inspection of the team’s games with similar opponents makes it appear likely the game will be much closer. Against the team’s common opponents, Morristown West averaged 30 points while giving up 22 per game. Seymour averaged 15 points per contest, while giving up 16. Should the Eagles be able to keep the game low-scoring, they have a real chance. Still, I see it going West’s way. Jason’s pick: Morristown West 24, Seymour 14 Cobey’s pick: Morristown West 27, Seymour 20

Jason’s pick: Sevier County 28, Morristown East 17 Cobey’s pick: Sevier County 31, Morristown East 20

Eagles can keep playoff hopes alive versus Morristown West tonight By JASON DAVIS Sports Editor SEYMOUR — Just four spots out of the TSSAA playoffs, a win for the Seymour Eagles tonight against IMAC front-runner Morristown West could have the Blue and Gold headed back for the postseason. “If we win, I think we’re in,� Seymour head coach Jim Moore said Thursday. “We’d jump like three or four spots, which should put us in at the bottom. I think we’d wind up 31, we would jump to 31 and they take 32, so we’d be in.� That’s a message the coach has been using to inspire his players for the past few weeks, and it’s definitely paid dividends, as the Eagles have rolled off two conference wins in a row. “We’ve told them since the South-Doyle game, ‘guys, we’re still not out of this thing,’� Moore said. “And

they’ve done well the last two weeks. “It’s a tougher task (tonight). Morristown West is a tougher team than either of those two teams, but we’ve played better, so anything can happen.� The Eagles top challenge will be stopping West’s dangerous play-action passing game, but Moore said that all starts with first stopping the run. “About evtyhing they do is off of play-action,� Moore said. “So the main thing is to stop the run. If you can stop the run and put them in a passing situation, you kind of know what’s going on. Now, if they have their pick on what they want to do, they’re hard to defend. First we’re going to have to contain the running game, and then we’ve got to contend with the passing game.� The Eagles hope to have senior safety and wide receiver Cory Clark back for the

game. He injured his ankle in the third quarter of last week’s win over Cherokee. “He went through walkthroughs today and got it taped up,� Moore said. “He helps out a lot when he’s on the field.� Seymour would also like to see senior back Lee Knight continue his streak of impressive rushing efforts. “The turning point has been (Lee) is getting some holes,� Moore said. “Lee’s always been able to run, and our offensive line’s played a lot better here lately.

To win finish as IMAC Co-Champions the Sevier County Smoky Bears must stop the vaunted rushing attack of the Morristown East Hurricanes, the league’s most prolific ground attack. Earlier this month the Sevier County coaching staff was on hand at BurkeToney Stadium to see Seymour weather the Hurricanes’ onslaught and just give up seven points in a 7-0 loss. But those Hurricanes were without Cody Ricker, the IMAC’s leading rusher, a pounding QB/RB who’s averaging 6.6 yards per carry and will likely eclipse the 1,000-yard mark in the game. Add Ricker back into an offense with electric freshman QB Matt Thompson and running back Chase Brunson, who’ve combined for over 1,100 rushing yards, and you’ve got a triple-threat offense that’s proved difficult to stop this season. The Hurricanes have averaged over 30 points per game in conference this year and would like nothing more than to upset the Bears. A win by the Hurricanes would assure East of a playoff berth in the 5A playoffs, and would likely relegate Sevier County to a wildcard bid in 6A. A win by the Bears, coupled with wins by Jefferson County and Morristown West, would put the three teams in a deadlock atop the IMAC, and Sevier County, by way of tie-breaker, would receive the district’s no.1 seed in the playoffs. I think that’s exactly what will happen. Sevier County’s defense has played very well this year and have allowed no team to score over 28 points. At the same time, the Bears offense has been explosive. Even if the Bears’ D has trouble stopping the Hurricanes, I believe the Purple and White will be able to outscore East.

Sevier County’s Haley Fox dribbles upfield for the Bearettes Thursday. PREP SOCCER

Science Hill upends SCHS in Region 1-AAA final By JASON DAVIS Sports Editor SEVIERVILLE — The SCHS Bearettes first appearance in the region soccer championship since 1995 didn’t go so well for the Purple and White Thursday night. The Bearettes fell 3-1 to a talented Science Hill team, to end a string of six straight wins. “Things just didn’t go our way,� Sevier County coach Bobby Norwood said. “We’ve been playing really good here lately, but tonight just wasn’t our night.� The Lady Hilltoppers came out and took the lead early, lobbing a free kick resulting from a handball just out of reach of the SCHS goalkeeper to take a 1-0 lead. The score stayed there into the halftime intermission. In the second half, things got worse for the Bearettes. “We had some mental breakdowns that killed us,� Norwood said. Also, a tough injury to forward Paris Bentley hurt the team down the stretch. “Paris got hurt there in the second half, one of our forwards that holds possession for us, so whenever she goes down it hurts

us,� Norwood said. Down 3-0 late, Sevier County finally cracked the scoreboard on a goal from Kelsey Fisher. Despite the loss, Norwood’s girls will still play in the sectionals for a shot to go on to the state tournament. Standing in their way, however, is perennial power Bearden. “If you can beat (Bearden) to go to the state tournament, you know you can beat anybody,� Norwood

said. “Bearden’s always one of the best teams in the state of Tennessee. “I told (the girls) they’ve got to get their heads up, because they’ve still got the opportunity to go to the state tournament. I mean, what more can you say? If you’ve got the opportunity to fight to go to the state tournament, that’s something special.� The game starts at 1 p.m. Saturday at Bearden.

SEYMOUR — For opposing offenses, seeing a Blue and Gold number 48 jersey can mean just one thing: A meeting with the ground is sure to follow. Senior linebacker Colton Flynn is making a huge difference for the Eagles defense this season, as was shown in last week’s 28-22 win over Cherokee.

Flynn’s 120 total tackles so far this season is the highest total in the Inter-Mountain Athletic Conference, 11 ahead of Jefferson County’s Eric Cain. A good game tonight against Morristown West would likely leave Flynn a shoe-in for finishing the conference’s leading tackler. In addition to his 120 tackles, Flynn has

recorded four sacks and an interception for the Eagles. “He seems to get better weekly, and just does a great job,� Seymour coach Jim Moore said. “It’s like he’s had a magnet on his chest to the

Notre Dame investigates death at football practice By TOM COYNE Associated Press

Jeff Chiu/AP

San Francisco Giants’ Matt Cain throws during the first inning of Game 2 of baseball’s World Series against the Texas Rangers Thursday in San Francisco.

Cain is able: Giants pitcher leads team to Game 2 victory San Francisco takes 2-0 lead over Rangers By RONALD BLUM AP Sports Writer SAN FRANCISCO — Matt Cain shut down the Texas Rangers with the type of suffocating pitching that put the San Francisco Giants in the World Series. Two more games like this and they’ll win the World Series. Cain was sharp, the Rangers bullpen was not and San Francisco broke away for a 9-0 win Thursday night. The Giants headed to Texas with a 2-0 lead that looked to come way too easily. Edgar Renteria reprised his October success with a go-ahead home run, and the Giants broke away with seven runs in the eighth, the biggest inning in their postseason history. Texas relievers walked four straight batters with two outs in the eighth, letting the game out of control. At this rate, team president and part-owner Nolan Ryan probably wants to grab a ball himself and get on the mound. Texas set a record for most runs allowed in a franchise’s first two Series games. “You take all the runs you can get,” Giants manager Bruce Bochy said. “It’s nice to have a cushion going into the ninth.” Cain drew frenzied ovations from a crowd waving Halloween-colored orange pompoms, a day after the Giants won the opener 11-7. After scoring just 19 runs in the six-game win over Philadelphia in the NL championship series, San Francisco has outscored Texas 20-7 and outhit the Rangers .314 to .227. C.J. Wilson allowed Renteria’s fifth-inning homer, then left the mound accompanied by a trainer with a blister on the middle finger of his pitching hand following a leadoff walk in the seventh. Juan Uribe added a run-scoring single against reliever Darren Oliver. San Francisco pulled away as Rangers manager Ron Washington again made bullpen moves too late. Derek Holland relieved with a man on and forced in a run with three straight walks, the last to Aubrey Huff, and Mark Lowe forced in another run with a walk to Uribe. Renteria, whose 11thinning single won Game

7 of the 1997 Series for Florida against Cleveland, followed with a two-run single to left. Pinch-hitter Aaron Rowand hit a tworun triple against Michael Kirkman, and Andres Torres doubled in a run. Cain allowed four hits in 7 2-3 innings, struck out two and walked two — one intentional. With the Giants ahead 2-0, left-handed specialist Javier Lopez retired Josh Hamilton on a lazy flyout to strand a runner on second in the eighth. As fans stood cheering, Guillermo Mota completed the four-hitter. Forty of the previous 51 teams to take a 2-0 lead have gone on to win the title, including seven straight and 13 of the last 14. The last to overcome a 2-0 deficit was the 1996 New York Yankees against Atlanta. The Giants have won each time they took a 2-0 lead: in 1922, 1933 and 1954. San Francisco improved to 11-0 against Texas at AT&T Park and got its third shutout in nine postseason wins. The Giants sent the highoctane Rangers offense

to its first shutout since Sept. 23. But after a day off, the Series resumes for the first time in Arlington, Texas. Colby Lewis starts Game 3 for the Rangers on Saturday night against Jonathan Sanchez. Much of the pitching buzz coming into the Series was over Texas’ Cliff Lee, who had been unbeaten in postseason play before getting hit hard Wednesday. Cain has been even sharper, pitching 21 1-3 innings in three postseason starts without allowing any earned runs. Sparkling but not surprising, given the Giants led the major leagues in ERA during the regular season. Cain credited rookie catcher Buster Posey. “I think it’s a little bit of everything,” Cain said. “Buster’s doing a great job of putting down the right fingers. He’s been calling the right pitches.” Cain pitched out of trouble a few times against Texas, which went 0 for 9 with runners in scoring position.

SOUTH BEND, Ind. — As the Notre Dame football team drilled on its practice field, Declan Sullivan stood high above the turf in a hydraulic lift, videotaping the session so players could get an aerial view of their performance. Suddenly, the wind, already whipping so much that Sullivan tweeted that it was “terrifying,” surged as high as 51 mph. The lift toppled over, crashing through a fence before coming to rest in a street just behind a goal post. “Things started flying by me that had been stationary for all of practice — Gatorade containers, towels,” Athletic Director Jack Swarbrick recalled Thursday, a day after the accident. “I noticed the netting by the goal post start to bend dramatically, and I heard a crash.” Sullivan, a junior film student from the Chicago suburb of Long Grove, Ill., was taken to a hospital, but Swarbrick said he received a call from the ambulance before it arrived saying that the 20-year-old was not breathing. The young man was soon pronounced dead. Most such lifts extend to about 40 feet, but Swarbrick said he did not know how high Sullivan was when the machine fell over, and it was unclear who authorized Sullivan to go up in it. As a student worker, Sullivan reported to a video coordinator associated with the football team. Swarbrick said the decision to practice outdoors is left up to individual athletic programs. A workplace safety expert said the lift should never

have been used in such blustery conditions. The university pledged to review its policy for using the lifts. “We’re going to look at how it was done this day,” Swarbrick said, adding that at least one other student was in a lift at the same time as Sullivan. Just before the practice began, Sullivan posted Twitter messages in which he said “Gusts of wind up to 60 mph today will be fun at work ... I guess I’ve lived long enough.” Less than an hour before the accident, he tweeted again, saying it was “terrifying” to be on the tower in the high winds. Ellie Hall, another Notre Dame film student who had friends in common with Sullivan, told The Associated Press in an e-mail that she was “horrified” by the “eerily prophetic nature” of the tweets, which she captured

in a screen shot and later described in a contribution to the Huffington Post. Within hours of Sullivan’s death, his family made his Facebook profile, and the messages, private, Hall said. Swarbrick said he was aware of the tweets and promised to look into “all the dynamics” that preceded Sullivan’s death. A safety consultant with Workplace Group LLC, a Chapel Hill, N.C.-based consortium with expertise in occupational safety, said wind gusts of 50 mph are much too high for the safe outdoor use of any scissor lift. Some manufacturers make lifts that can be used in winds up to 25 mph, but W. Jon Wallace said he would recommend against using a lift in winds above 10 mph because the higher the winds, the more unstable the equipment becomes.

G-P fans were in full color Thursday night in Pigeon Forge.

Zone, the Highlanders brought out a new wrinkle with Barber running a wildcat package. A few snaps later, Barber finished with a one-yard TD plunge with 7:05 in the third. A bad snap on the PAT kick had Marshall scrambling for the right corner of the end zone. He was stopped short on the play, but the Pigeon Forge defense was flagged for a chop block on the play, allowing Merritt to attempt another PAT, which was true for a 35-0 lead. The re-try allowed the TSSAA 35-point, second-half clock rule to kick in, shortening the remainder of the night mercifully for the Orange and Black. Pigeon Forge avoided a shutout, scoring on a one-yard junior Michael Lombrana TD run and a sophomore Patrick Barbieri two-point run against the Blueand-Gold junior varsity players to make it the eventual final with 1:06 in regulation. “I thought we were ready to play emotionally, and maybe that was the most emotions we’ve displayed all year,” said Benny, who recorded his 305th career win on Thursday. “I think our coaching staff did a good job ..., but you have to give the boys all the credit, our seniors in particular. “Bill-Bill (Huskey) plays hard on that line of scrimmage, and Ron Durbin, Tye Marshall, Jeremy Hibbard and just one right after the other keeps making plays. “We’re playing better right now, and I think I’m looking forward to playing in these playoffs more than I have in several years with this group right here. I don’t know who we’re going to play until Saturday, but I feel like our boys wanna play, and I don’t think it’s any situation about worrying about who we’re

down the middle, Durbin went up and snagged it at the Tigers 30, swatted a defender out of the way and used his sub-4.5 40 speed to take it the rest of the way to paydirt for a 21-0 G-P lead. Durbin tied current G-P receivers coach Allen Cox’ 1984 school record for touchdown catches on the play, and with a playoff berth virtually assured, the Blue-and-Gold senior should have at least one more game to try for sole-possession of the school benchmark. The Highlanders were far from done and increased their lead to 28-0 with 4:12 in the half on a flee-flicker that nearly went awry but ended in the end zone. Marshall handed the ball to Barber, who was headed for the 2-hole before turning around and pitching it back to Marshall. The G-P quarterback avoided two would-be sackers and then threw an off-balanced pass down the right sideline to Hibbard, who snagged it at the Pigeon Forge 48 and took it the rest of the way before being horse-collared in the end zone. Merritt’s kick made it 28-0 G-P, the score at intermission. “We knew they had some good players in Durbin and Walter (Barber) and their quarterback Tye Marshall,” said Lee. “You can’t get to Marshall, you can’t sack him and he makes good plays. We challenged him by playing a lot of man coverage tonight, and obviously it backfired. They had more than 230 yards passing by halftime, and we’ve not given up that many yards passing all season.” G-P said it came into Thursday’s game with the intention of throwing the ball more than usual. “We kindly threw the football a little more than we usually do,” said Benny. “We knew their game plan would be to shut Walter down and limit him as much as they could. It certainly looked like that’s what (Pigeon Forge) was trying to do. “We thought we’d have to throw the football ... and Tye did a good job executing.” After driving into the Red

going to play. “I think anybody they bring on, we’re going to be ready to play and enjoy doing it. We’re really looking forward to the playoffs.” Pigeon Forge for the most part did a good job containing Barber in the first half, but the G-P stud runner broke loose in the second and finished the night with 124 rushing yards and three TDs on 16 carries. Barber also broke the 1,000yard rushing mark for the season and now has 1,037 yards on 127 carries (an 8.2-yard average) with 18 rushing scores. Marshall finished the night 13-of-16 passing for 267 yards, two TDs and an interception. Marshall now has 1,272 yards passing on just 113 attempts this year. Durbin finished the night with six catches for 128 yards and a score. He tied the team’s single-season touchdown catches mark, but he also upped his season yardage total to 585 yards on 35 catches (a 16.7-yard average), putting himself within reach of the team’s single-season receiving yardage record of 696 yards, currently held by Bo Owens. Durbin now has 950 total yards from scrimmage when his rushing numbers are added in. Hibbard also had a big night with 99 total yards of offense, including three catches for 76 yards and a score, and one rush for 23 yards. Pigeon Forge’s Lombrana finished the night with 107 total yards, including 54 yards rushing on 13 carries and 53 yards receiving on one catch. Barbieri also added 52 rushing yards on 13 totes for the Tigers.

state/nation/world briefs Haslam, Mac making final stumps

Associated Press

Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton speaks prior to boarding her plane after making a speech on America’s engagement in the Asia-Pacific region on Thursday.

China differences cited by Clinton

KNOXVILLE (AP) — Both candidates for Tennessee governor are spending time in the final days of the campaign looking for votes in each other’s home regions. Democrat Mike McWherter on Thursday stumped on the campus of the University of Tennessee in Knoxville, Republican Bill Haslam’s hometown. Haslam has been the city’s mayor since 2003. Haslam a day earlier made a campaign swing through northwestern Tennessee, the political base of McWherter’s father, former Gov. Ned McWherter. McWherter told reporters that his campaign has been energized by voters recoiling against Haslam’s statement last week that he would sign into law a measure to eliminate permit requirements to carry handguns in public. Thursday was the last day of early voting for the election to succeed term-limited Democratic Gov. Phil Bredesen.

Cyrus, wife announce divorce

HONOLULU (AP) — Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton on Thursday recited a series of U.S. grievances with Beijing’s policies, ranging from currency rates to human rights, but said the U.S. is seeking a closer relationship with China, not trying to check its growing power. In a speech in Hawaii at the start of a two-week tour of the Asian Pacific region, Clinton said the U.S. would remain “forward deployed” in the area and not relinquish its role as a major power there. She called on China to expand its cooperation with the U.S., even as its power and influence expands. “It is not in anyone’s interest for the United States and China to see each other as adversaries,” she said. Clinton recited a list of issues where the U.S. and China are currently at odds. They include efforts to blunt the nuclear threats posed by Iran and North Korea, improve strained military-to-military ties, combat climate change and resolve U.S. concerns over China’s trade and currency policies. “We seek a deeper dialogue in an effort to build trust and establish rules of the road as our militaries operate in greater proximity,” Clinton said. She called on China to make “responsible” changes in its currency policies, to address a yawning trade imbalance between the two countries. Clinton did not address reports that China had lifted a moratorium on exports of rare earths minerals critical to the high-tech industry. On Wednesday she had called on China to clarify its policy on the issue, which has raised global concerns. Clinton also said Thursday that China should work with its neighbors to ease tensions over territorial disputes in the East and South China Seas. Beijing has alarmed some of its neighbors with what many see as a more assertive stance. Meanwhile, U.S. officials recently riled their Chinese counterparts by declaring that the U.S. has a stake in settling these disputes. China regards the South China Sea as its own.

NEW YORK (AP) — Billy Ray Cyrus and wife Tish are ending their 17-year marriage. The parents of teen sensation Miley Cyrus have filed for divorce. In a statement released Wednesday, the pair said it was a “very difficult time for our family.” They said they were trying to “work through some personal matters” and they appreciated support. Though 17-year-old Miley is the biggest star in the family now, it was Billy Ray Cyrus who put the Cyrus name on the map in 1992 with the instant classic “Achy Breaky Heart.”

Indonesia tsunami death toll 370

MENTAWAI ISLANDS, Indonesia (AP) — Rescuers searching islands ravaged by a tsunami off western Indonesia raised the death toll to 370 Thursday as more corpses were wrapped in body bags or buried by neighbors. Officials said hundreds of missing people may have been swept out to sea. Elsewhere in Indonesia, the volcano that killed 33 people earlier this week began erupting again, though there were no reports of new injuries or damage. Mourners held a mass burial Thursday during a lull in Mount Merapi’s rumblings.

No breakthrough in Mideast talks

RAMALLAH, West Bank (AP) — U.S. efforts to restart peace talks between Israel and the Palestinians have not produced results so far, the Egyptian foreign minister said Thursday, less than two weeks before a key Arab decision on whether to halt the negotiations. The peace talks, launched last month at the White House, have stalled over Israeli settlement construction in the West Bank, and Israeli and Palestinian leaders traded barbed remarks Thursday about their future. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has refused to extend a 10-month moratorium on new housing starts that ended on Sept. 26. Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas says he won’t resume the talks without an extension on the building curbs. !"#$%&'#"'%"!#()%#"(*'"+'*#)#&',$-,.)/' %"!*#(0%#$"!'1$2*'#"'1&'(&%&$3&2 !"3&41&('567'8959':4".$!-;<$##&(=

Unmanned fire engine hits home

SPOKANE, Wash. (AP) — A parked Spokane Fire Department engine with nobody at the wheel rolled into a home where firefighters were making an aid call. Fire Chief Bobby Williams says the truck had been parked about 100 yards from the home Wednesday night. Shortly after medics walked inside, they heard the crash. KXLY-TV reports the engine knocked down porch supports and punched a hole in the living room wall. No one was hurt. Investigators are trying to figure out how the runaway truck made the trip down the street, over a curb and hit the home.

Pumpkin smash-slide cut short

CHAGRIN FALLS, Ohio (AP) — Safety concerns cut short an annual pumpkin smash-and-slide staged by students at an Ohio high school. In a tradition going back to 1969, juniors and seniors from Chagrin Falls High School near Cleveland take pumpkins to the top of a hilly street, smash them on the pavement and use the mess to slide down on sleds or trash can lids. WEWS-TV reports that what’s known as the pumpkin roll began Thursday morning just after midnight but was brought to an early end by police about 45 minutes later. Officers said there were too

A couple of ghosts wait to be hung from David Weech’s home, where they will travel back and forth across the property.

Boo! Weech goes all out for Halloween By GAIL CRUTCHFIELD Community Editor

SEYMOUR — “You need an exterminator?” the man asked as he stopped his truck near the Weech home in the High Meadows subdivision, where a giant spider and its spawn are laid out at the edge of the lawn. With a couple of ghosts hanging around and a few more ghoulish surprises, the Ghostbusters may be the more appropriate service to call. David Weech is the creator of all the over-sized madness and mayhem at his home in preparation for this weekend’s Halloween celebration. Weech, a retired dentist, is once again doing it up big at his house after a scaled down version last year due to knee replacement surgery. Turning off of Boyd’s Creek Highway onto North Pitner Road at the high school, it’s hard to miss the 45-foot skeleton hovering over the neighborhood. Turn into the subdivision and drive in front of Weech’s Deep Woods Lane home and you’ll see the 75-foot spider with 45 baby spiders spilling into the street. But don’t be thinking that’s all there is to scare up a fright, because Weech has much more up his sleeve. If you’re brave enough to wander onto the property, be prepared for more spiders coming out of nowhere, a ghoulish character at the candy bowl, creepy eyes watching you from everywhere and scary sounds coming from the most unusual places. Using pulley systems and the help of family and friends, Weech has planned an experience that trick-or-treaters of all ages will enjoy. “It’s not for the faint of heart, so kids are with their parents,” Weech said. Even his mother gets into the act when she’s visiting. She helped paint a version of “The Scream” painting for one effect and has been known to man the pulley system to make the over-size spider on the lawn move. “People ask me when I’ll grow up,” said Weech, who is 68, but still enjoys the fun of Halloween and all holidays for that matter. Going all out for a holiday is nothing new for the Weeches. He’s already thinking of things he can do for Christmas and Easter. During the July 4th holiday, he created a U.S. flag with 3,600 lights and put on a show, pantomiming a patriotic Elvis song dressed as the King. For Halloween, Weech created the super-sized skeleton using particle board, using a smaller skeleton used for home decorations as his model. Weech said he measured the smaller skeleton then made the calculations to build

dance,” he said. The spider, which has bright yellow eyes that light up, was made in part using plastic grocery bags stuffed into the fabric legs he sewed himself. He said he had to make the long legs in sections, using a broom handle to stuff the grocery bags inside the tubes and then piecing them together. Weech said he thought about stuffing the legs with fabric, but the bags are water resistant and lighter. Weech said he still has a lot of work to do and more ideas come to him every day. He’s hoping he can use the 500 black balloons he bought to create a spider that will cover his home. But if he Gail Crutchfield/The Mountain Press runs out of time, he said David Weech works the pulley system that he can try that next year. moves the legs of the 75-foot spider and the He said he’ll be ready arms and legs of the 45-foot skeleton in his yard for trick-or-treaters in Seymour. on both Saturday and Sunday, and will leave the much larger one.

Bone Prophet band is among the Christian bands to perform Sunday during a free Halloween alternative event at The Miracle Theater.

Miracle offers Halloween alternative Submitted report PIGEON FORGE — The second annual “God’s Country” event will be Sunday at the Miracle Theater in Pigeon Forge. The free event starts at noon and continues until 10 p.m. “The vision that God placed in my heart last year was to drop all the denominational walls and all of us join as one large body of believers to publicly praise and worship our Lord,” said organizer Gwen Ford. Television personality

Lasaundra Brown will sing “How Great Thou Art,” followed by Marcia Nelson of First Baptist Church of Sevierville’s praise and worship team. At 8 p.m. there will be a special candlelight ceremony featuring Paula Michelle of Dandridge singing “Amazing Grace.” This year’s festival is co-sponsored by The Miracle Theater and Church of the Way and will feature music, singers, bands, motivational speakers, church leaders, children’s games, a youth stage, prayer tent and more.

Among the groups scheduled to appear is Bone Prophet Band, which performed at Ford’s first “God’s Country Festival” in New Market. Ford decided to move the event to Pigeon Forge this year at the invitation of Pastor Wayne Cook of Church of the Way, a new fellowship that meets at The Miracle Theater on Sunday mornings.

Customer service is an underperforming asset I struck a nerve with last week’s “Turn problems into positive experiences� column that emphasized the value of a good “guest recovery system.� Based on the comments I received from readers telling me that customer service is at an all-time low, it is apparent to me that good customer or client relations is appreciated more today than ever before. And, “guest recovery,� which simply means how an organization deals with and corrects problems when it falters, is something for which customers and clients hunger. The Forrester Research Company asked over 4,500 customers/consumers/ clients about the service they have received from across 14 different industries. To gauge the overall state of service, they took the percentage of customers who were satisfied with service interactions and subtracted the percentage of those who were dissatisfied. This calculation resulted in a net satisfaction rate. Forrester shared a lot of facts and figures, but their bottom line statement was, “Companies need to start viewing customer service as an underperforming asset.� The lowest satisfaction ratings came from Internet service providers (53 percent), TV service providers (53 percent) and health insurance plans (55 percent). The highest ratings came from retailers (80 percent), hotels (79 percent) and parcel delivery/shipping firms (78 percent). Interestingly, my two recent and ongoing bad service experiences have come from a health insurance company and a parcel delivery/shipping firm. The most extreme example is the shipping firm. Someone walked into a FedEx Kinko’s store in Auburn, Wash., purchased $170.65 worth of shipping materials, and charged it to a third-party account — which happened to be my account. When I discovered the charge, I phoned FedEx to register a complaint and to question how someone could do this without proof of identity. I was told it would be reported to fraud and I would receive credit. I asked them to deactivate my account. A few days later, I received a FedEx bill for another $389.12. The supplies purchaser had gone back to the same store and shipped packages to a “wood signature booth� at the Virginia State Fair. I phoned FedEx again, talked with department representatives in billing and high risk investigations, and received assurances my account would be cred-

ited and they would get to the bottom of things. That same afternoon I received a call from FedEx to remind me I had not paid this outstanding bill. Again, I shared my story. A few days later, I received another FedEx call — wanting to talk with me about paying the outstanding bill. Keep in mind, each time I spoke with FedEx I had to go over everything from the very beginning. All of this began the first week of September, and here it is the last of October. I have spoken with FedEx two more times. I have finally received full credit. I do have a fraudulent activity control number to show it has been reported. I was able to deactivate my account. But I am still waiting for a call from the FedEx fraud department to tell me how this happened. Was it fraud — or did the FedEx Kinko’s store in Auburn, Wash., make a mistake in transposing numbers, twice? I still don’t know — and I still don’t know why I had to keep going back to the beginning each time I talked with someone. Several perceptions reared their heads in this particular experience. Three of them are (1) it continues to be proved that 90 percent of all problems in any organization is a direct result of poor communication; (2) many company representatives are more interested in getting problems off their desks and onto someone else’s desk rather than taking the responsibility to solve the problems and help the customer; and (3) if this is going on at FedEx, what is happening in your company? — Š 2010 by Carl Mays, speaker and author whose mentoring site, www.MyMerlin.net, is based on his book and program, “A Strategy For Winning.â€?

What is an ENERGY STAR Qualified Home? An ENERGY STAR Qualified home (as certified by a qualified rating professional) is at least 15 percent more energy efficient than a home built to the 2004 International Residential Code. These homes offer additional energy saving features and use a variety of energy efficient techniques - ENERGY STAR Qualified appliances and lighting, effective insulation, high performance low-e windows, tight construction and sealed ductwork. Now, Schaad is only building ENERGY STAR Qualified homes. These new homes meet, and often exceed, the ENERGY STAR efficiency standards.

What is a HERS rating? The Home Energy Rating System (HERS) measures the amount of energy a home consumes. Older homes typically use more energy. For instance, a home built 10 years ago often receives a HERS score of 150. An average new home built to code receives a HERS score of 100. The lower the HERS rating, the more energy efficient the home. ENERGY STAR Qualified homes require a minimum HERS rating of 85.

Advantages for a homeowner include: Lower energy bills are achieved through new energy efficient construction methods, building materials, equipment, appliances and lighting. Resale distinction is attained because the ENERGY STAR rating is documented proof of the home’s superior efficiency compared to homes constructed only to meet building codes.

Savannah Glen in Sevierville NOW Schaad has new ENERGY STAR Qualified homes in Savannah Glen, a classic townhome community, ideally located in Sevierville. Open daily from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m., except Friday and Saturday. Contact Lynda Meeks, Sevierville Real Estate and Rentals, phone 865.429.0002 for more information.

Advice

Mother emotionally abusing son, so call Child Protective Services

Zits

Blondie

Baby Blues

Beetle Bailey

Dear Annie: Our son recently informed us that our 7-year-old grandson has high-functioning Asperger’s syndrome. I have extensive experience with children on the autism spectrum. “Jeremy’s” behaviors, while rowdy, are not typical of Asperger’s. What we have noticed, however, is a crippling degree of anxiety and numerous phobias in our daughter-in-law, “Lois.” Jeremy is not allowed to play outside, have friends over or do any activities normal for a boy his age. Lois keeps him on a rigid schedule designed for a much younger child. He is not allowed to bathe alone, brush his own teeth or wipe himself after using the bathroom, even though he is capable of doing all these things. As a result, he acts out and has serious behavior problems at school. When Jeremy is with me, he is a totally different child. Even his father has a better experience with the boy than his wife does. With his mother, however, Jeremy’s behaviors are alarming and clearly meant to get attention. I actually saw waitresses cringe when we entered a pizza parlor. He is cruel to small animals and says he wants to kill the family cat. Lois confessed that she had pressured a specialist into giving her son the Asperger’s diagnosis. When I gently suggested getting a second opinion, she told me to leave her home and then had a screaming tantrum. My terrified grandson hid in the garage. My son admits his wife has a mental health problem, but he runs away to the office. He said Lois called him at work demanding that he come home

if he ever wanted to see his son alive again. She once falsely accused him of molesting the boy. He told me that she locks herself in her room for days at a time, often keeping Jeremy in there with her. She even insists she can read the thoughts of others. What can I do? — Deeply Concerned Dear Concerned: Your daughter-in-law is mentally ill and is abusing her son emotionally. The fact that Dad permits this is reprehensible. Call Child Protective Services, and ask that someone check out the home situation. Talk to the principal and counselor at Jeremy’s school. Then tell your son to stop hiding at work and contact the National Alliance on Mental Illness (nami. org) at 1-800-950-NAMI (1-800-950-6264) and ask for help. Dear Annie: My husband insists on blowing his nose at the dinner table. This includes when we eat out at restaurants with linen napkins. I’ve told him repeatedly that blowing one’s nose into a napkin, especially a cloth one that our server will have to handle, is downright rude. He doesn’t care and believes I am overreacting. I would so appreciate it if you would please give us a lesson on noseblowing etiquette. — Too Mortified To Dine Out Dear Mortified: One should excuse oneself

from the table when blowing one’s nose and never, ever use a napkin. We suggest you bring along a handkerchief or travel pack of tissues for those moments when your husband feels the need to honk in public and see if it helps. Dear Annie: I read the letter from “Needing Advice,” whose boss is having an affair with a co-worker. Yes, she should tell the wife. Two years ago, I was that wife, and no one told me. I was hurt to discover that everyone knew except me. Women I thought were my friends did not say a thing to me. I felt so betrayed. Please advise “Needing” to tell the wife. I seriously doubt her job will be jeopardized. His wife will make sure it isn’t. — Betrayed in New Mexico Dear N.M.: We understand your sense of betrayal, but a personal friend is not in the same position as the husband’s employee. His love life is the employee’s business only insofar as it affects the job -- in which case, she should approach her employer, not his spouse.
