FIS welcomes SERC educational volunteers

ALAN SLOAN asloan@farragutpress.com

Farragut Intermediate School is breaking new ground as it reaches out to Farragut Schools Education Relations Committee. Mark Littleton, committee chair, said FIS “is the first school that’s really

said, ‘yes, that type of registry is a tool that we could definitely tap into’” concerning SERC’s efforts to make professionals available as educational volunteers at Farragut schools and Hardin Valley Academy. Kay Wellons, FIS principal, and Debbie Adorante,

assistant principal, expressed a desire to potentially make use of any volunteer expert teaching assistance SERC could drum up through its proposed registry of names. Committee member Mike Singletary suggested “adding a registry, if we don’t already have one, of

willing volunteers. And let the teachers who are inspired to do a project, or to need project help, let them be the ones to initiate the deal.” He also advocated distinguishing a registry for volunteer lecturers versus a registry for project-assistance volunteers, the lat-

Town department heads presented their concerns and needs for the upcoming fiscal year to the Board of Mayor and Aldermen during a special workshop Thursday, March 28. Sue Stuhl, Parks and Leisure Services director, said one of the biggest concerns is the need for replacement and reconstruction throughout the town’s public parks. “A lifetime for a playground is about 10-11 years,” Stuhl said.

“Softball field fences are rusted and curled. It’s getting to the point where it’s not serving its purpose anymore. The splash pad has a damaged water tank … there are internal columns that are crushed.” Stuhl also cited the need for additional staffing for the opening of a new artificial turf field, regular maintenance of the parks and public relations efforts. Human Resources director Janet Curry discussed a salary study she currently is conducting. “We want to maintain a

competitive compensation plan,” Curry said. “We have been comparing [salaries] with other cities, surveying like-sized towns.” Additionally, Curry is looking at rising health insurance premiums. “We are looking at a 15 to 20 percent trend increase, but we try to negotiate that down,” Curry said. She said the town’s aging workforce is another factor in the potential increase. Town administrator David Smoak said the Town has budgeted for 15 percent and the Town will

tweak the plan as they can. Community Development director Ruth Hawk’s concerns lie with her current employees retiring in the coming years. “Right now, we work at our highest efficiency levels because of employees’ longevity,” Hawk said. “It will take us years to build back to that efficiency level.” The development department also is working to ensure that citizens meet Town compliance regulations.

Silver Spoon restaurant closed by Feds

ROBBY O’DANIEL rodaniel@farragutpress.com

The store is closed, and there is no traffic at Silver Spoon Café at 210 Lovell Road. Instead, a notice on the door talks of a state seizure of the property for lack of payment of state taxes through a levy by the

Department of Revenue, Tax Enforcement Division. “All persons are warned not to remove or tamper with this property in any manner,” the notice reads in part. Attempts to reach those affiliated with Silver Spoon Café were unsuccessful. Billy Trout, public infor-

mation officer for the Tennessee Department of Revenue, declined comment. “Tennessee’s statutes protect taxpayer privacy, and those statutes do not allow the Tennessee Department of Revenue to comment on collection matters that are specific to taxpayers,” he said.

According to an Oct, 11, 2012, farragutpress article, the café opened in that location in late September. “The first Silver Spoon opened in The Gallery in 1984 as part of the Ruby Tuesday brand,” the article read. “In 2000, Silver Spoon separated from Ruby Tuesday.”

In an effort to improve community health, the Board of Mayor and Aldermen appointed two members to the Community Health Council during its March 28 meeting. Five applicants’ resumes were presented during a special workshop prior to the meeting for consideration for the council, which is a joint force among the City of Knoxville, Knox County and the town of Farragut. Members will serve a staggered three-year term on the council. Mayor Ralph McGill was allotted one appointment. He chose Registered Nurse Debbie Pinchok, BSN, CEN, who currently works as a staff nurse in the Turkey Creek Medical Center Emergency Department and Chest Pain Emergency Center. McGill commented that he and Pinchok had spoken at length, and he feels she will represent the Town very well. “I want to serve on the Community Health Council because I want to be the voice of reality and experience in our community,” Pinchok said in the application she submitted to town officials. Aldermen who were present were allotted a collective appointment in addition to McGill’s. Alderman Bob Markli voiced his preference for Dr. Mark Ray, a head and neck surgeon. He said Ray has the best interest of the community and the political process in mind. “I am very interested in the role of local government in establishing an environment where a community can See HEALTH on Page 3A

BOMA approves partnership with Loudon County, TDOT

STEPHANIE EDWARDS Correspondent

The Farragut Board of Mayor and Aldermen approved plans to partner with Loudon County and TDOT for a beautification and safety improvement project at Dixie Lee Junction, the intersection of Highway 70 South and Highway 11 South, during a meeting on Thursday, March 28. “We’ve been talking to Loudon County for quite some time,” Town administrator David Smoak said. “It's been on the Transportation Planning Organization's projects list for a number of years. It's finally starting to get off the ground. It’s a TDOT project because two state routes are coming together. In order to get a little additional funding for landscaping and things like that, we're just requesting this to TDOT as a partner consideration.” Smoak noted that the project would entail additional landscaping, signage, gutters and basic road and sidewalk repair. “This will be prettier than a typical road intersection,” See PARTNERSHIP on Page 3A

aged residents to be good neighbors. Town Engineer Darryl Smith named a failed slope on Turkey Creek Road as a current concern. He said he is working to acquire an easement from the property owner. “We do have a design staked out,” Smith said. “We plan to try make contact with property owners next week.” The Wentworth Greenway Connector is another pressing issue for the engineering department. Smith said the design is complete. However, one property

owner whose property lies just south of where the creek forks has yet to agree to an easement. Smith plans to continue working with the property owner to acquire the easement. Much like Stuhl’s concern for playground equipment wearing out, Smith feels many projects, especially pipes and other utility infrastructure, that were placed 20 years ago may need repairs. Smith noted that the Kingston Pike at Everett Road project is on schedule to be completed by May, and another pressing project at Stage Road has a targeted completion date of Nov. 15. However, he pointed out the weather will determine whether

paving crews can complete the work on time. Since Public Works director Bud McKelvey was not present, Smoak spoke on his behalf and said there is a great need to replace right-of-way mowing equipment, at the cost of $70,000. McKelvey has been comparing the cost effectiveness of bidding out the mowing to contractors vs. replacing the aging equipment. Looking at adding the additional McFee Park phases, Smoak realizes this will add more work for McKelvey’s staff. “As we add amenities, we have to look at adding staffing,” Smoak said.

LCUB discusses sewer rehab

ROBBY O’DANIEL rodaniel@farragutpress.com

Lenoir City Utilities Board voted on March 25 to approve an engineering agreement with Fulghum, MacIndoe and Associates, Inc., to work on rehabilitating the Browder Hollow sewer sub-basin. The agreement includes design work on the basin, but the eventual construction work was not voted on and would have to get approved later, said LCUB general manager M. Shannon Littleton. Littleton estimated that construction work would begin early next year or mid-summer of next year, depending on the speed of

progress. According to the agreement, the utilities board “wishes to reduce rainfall-derived inflow and infiltration within the Browder Hollow sub-basin and to initially focus sewer rehabilitation and replacement efforts within mini basin BH1.” The work is in response to Tennessee Department of Environment and Conservation concerns. “This happens all over the state, but in this particular basin, there’s more I and I [inflow and infiltration] issues going on than should happen normally,” Littleton said. “And See LCUB on Page 4A

I believe that local government can be a great resource in shaping health trends in the township of Farragut.” Alderman Dot LaMarche initially voted for Kathleen Brien Douthat, a counselor at

Pellissippi State Community College. However, needing to come to a consensus, LaMarche retracted her vote and conceded to agree with Markli, voting for Ray. Other applicants include Louise Povlin, owner of Anytime Fitness, and Mary Ellen Reda, the regional occupational health programs manager for a federal agency. “I personally want to thank everyone who is here who has

applied for the position,” LaMarche said. “We hope you will return and reapply in three years. I think it is so important that you had the desire to want to come work for our town … it means a lot to me.” Markli added, “This is very important to me too. It is overwhelming to have this many qualified people and willing volunteers. We are very disappointed we cannot appoint everybody. We thank you so much.”

Smoak said, saying it would be considered a gateway entrance to the town. Mayor Ralph McGill pointed out that Dixie Lee Junction has been a problem intersection for the community, and this project should resolve current issues. “We want to make sure it's done very nicely,” McGill said. According to town Resolution R-2013-03, the project will

improve “the safety and functionality of the intersection.” The project is further described in the resolution as a “context sensitive/'complete streets’ design that enhances both pedestrian and motorist experience, thus improving safety to the general public.” Alderman Bob Markli motioned to approve the pursuit of this project, and Alderman Dot LaMarche seconded the motion. The action was approved unanimously.

• For the sake of “horticultural correctness,” it needs to be pointed out that the “Dogwood trees” identified in the photo on page 5A in the April 4th edition of the farragutpress are actually ornamental Pears … more than likely, Bradford Pears. Big difference! Editor’s Note: You’re correct. Our mistake. • Congratulations to the FMS students who won first place in the C-SPAN video competition with their entry on the benefits of a high-speed public rail system. I thought the video was very well done, but I’d like to argue the flip side because I felt like

the authors didn’t spend much time there. In the video’s utopian example, people didn’t own cars. OK, no car means total dependence on the rail system. I’m not too crazy about giving up freedom and independence (a car) in exchange for dependence on the government on the assumption that the government will do a good job. Paying higher taxes so that the government can run one more program inefficiently is never a wise choice. The pain of taxes will hit you upside the head when you get your first summer job. You worked 25 hours at $10 per hour. Congratulations, that’s a $250

paycheck, right? You can almost smell that new iPad. Sorry, the government will take about $80 and you can have the rest. That’s $170 for you ... and you get to pay another 10 percent in sales tax when you spend it. What are all these taxes for, you ask? Now THAT would make a great video! • Editorial freedom is a wonderful concept, but it does come with its responsibilities.

House passes bill to lower Sales Tax on groceries NASHVILLE — Legislation sponsored by State Rep. Ryan Haynes (R–Knoxville) to lower the Sales Tax on groceries from 5.25 percent to a flat 5 percent rate passed the full House floor this week in Nashville with a 960 margin. The legislation builds on the success of a law adopted by Republicans in 2012 that lowered the Sales Tax on food from 5.5 percent to 5.25 percent. In total, the massive Sales Tax

reduction this year will provide Tennessee taxpayers with more than $25 million in tax relief. Haynes said, “I am proud to sponsor this legislation and look forward to finding additional ways to ease the monetary burdens associated with the downturn in today’s economy over the coming weeks and months.” The food tax bill will be heard on the Senate floor this week, where it is also expected to pass.

“Inflow and infiltration can also raise treatment costs at the wastewater treatment plant.” The board also approved renewing utility board health care insurance with Blue Cross Blue Shield, with one abstention. Littleton thinks this is the first time in several years that the premium renewal has had no increase. “I’m excited about that because I think it’s a lot that our employees have done on managing their health care cost,” Littleton said. “Secondly I think it’s things that we’ve done internally.” He does not expect a zero-percent premium renewal to repeat itself next year. “It’s mainly out of what we see coming down the line with Obamacare,” he said. “More than likely, those issues are going to really manifest themselves two years from now, but we may have to make some preparatory payments next year in preparing for two years from now.”

Wellons said she couldn’t assure all names on any volunteer list would be called upon because “it’s an ebb-and-flow sometimes” in terms of volunteer time availability.

that’s been noted by TDEC, and they simply want us to repair the system, and we’re going to do that.” It is mostly an infiltration issue, Littleton said, when large rain events lead to water entering the sewer system. “It was getting into the sewer system and ultimately to our plant, and sometimes when the water gets so severe, it comes back out through the manholes,” he said. “... We stay on top of those issues and have very few of them, but we’ve got to make sure that our plant doesn’t receive a lot of this water because obviously we’d have to treat it, and it’d cost the rate payers money.” Shannon Ashford, TDEC communications officer, said TDEC has met with the utilities board about overflows in the basin. “Inflow and infiltration can lead to sewer overflows, which have the potential to adversely affect public health and the environment,” Ashford said.

A Knoxville church looking for an expanded presence in West Knox County is readying to open a satellite location in the former Faith Lutheran

Church sanctuary. Redemption Church’s first service in Farragut will be held at 9 a.m., Sunday, April 28, at 239 Jamestowne Blvd. “We’re really excited. We just want to let people know we’re here and we’re really interested in being part of the com-

munity and welcoming everybody in,” Redemption spokesperson Yvonne Wilson said. “It’s a church for everyone and a place for everyone to belong,” she added. To do that, Redemption Church will host a community party from 11 a.m. to 1

p.m., Saturday, April 27, at its West Campus location to reach out to area residents and their families. “What we’re planning on doing is a picnic with hotdogs and popcorn and See REDEMPTION on Page 9A

Having won the inaugural adult spelling bee it began sponsoring in 2007, The Rotary Club of Farragut got back to its championship ways Thursday evening, March 14. It took 17 rounds, ending with first-place success for RCF’s trio of Bruce Williamson, Fred Martin and Stephanie Myers when Williamson came to the microphone and nailed the word “fluviatile.” The threesome, known as “Sequester Spellers,” quickly followed with big smiles and a group hug. “I must say, I think this was the best competition we’ve had,” announced Scott Firebaugh, Adult Bee word pronouncer and math teacher at Grace Christian Academy. About spelling fluviatile, “We knew it was from Latin; I knew what it was,” said Williamson, RCF president and a member of that 2007 Farragut Rotary championship Adult Bee team, after winning The Rotary Club of See SPELLERS on Page 11A

A combination of talent, quick feet and being “identical” makes the Earnest twins, Farragut High School seniors Megan and Mindy, especially well suited for Appalachian Ballet Company in Maryville. When these twins perform, “From a choreographer’s standpoint, it’s so much fun to put the two of them together,” said Amy Morton Vaughn, artistic director at Appalachian Ballet. “I think it’s because a lot of ballet, especially classical ballet, is very symmetrical, being able to set up a dance where both sides look the same. The girls tend to move alike and gesture alike. They are identical twins, and they very much dance the same as well. “They’re both so very musical, they play in the band at Farragut High School,” Vaughn added. “They like the idea that we dance very similarly and look much alike,” said Mindy, who along with Megan, 18, have been in ballet since age 3. The past five have been with Appalachian. Because the twins are “very petite,” Vaughn said Megan and Mindy “are very good jumpers. The little, quick feet combina-

FARRAGUTPRESS THURSDAY, APRIL 11, 2013 • 7A

Put it back! The other day I had a half hour to kill before I had to be at my chorus practice, so I decided I’d go to Ross Dress for Less and just browse. I’m sure this isn’t right, but I do it often at Ross; I buy something n o t because I really love it, but because its original price is Pam horrifyingYoung ly high and Make it the mark down is too Fun! good to pass up. The first item I put into my shopping cart was a good example. It was pajamas by Ellen Tracy (she’s expensive) originally $70.00 for $21.99! How could I pass up a savings of $48? Never mind the designer brand sleepwear was in a leopard print in purple and lime green and just about the ugliest pajamas I’d ever seen. But in my mind, the $48 savings cancelled out the obnoxious look of them. Besides pajamas are worn in the dark and I did love the feel of the fabric. The next item that went in the cart was a bath lotion I swear smelled just like a cinnamon roll. I think I was especially attracted to it because I was hungry and I hadn’t had a cinnamon roll in years (and won’t in the future because my husband Terry and I are low-carbing it these days). I didn’t stop to ask myself why it’d be cool to smell like a treat, but I’ve noticed recently that many toxic-free health care products often smell like some kind of food like lime, caramel, cloves, chocolate, apple sauce or pumpkin pie. With my hideous nightwear destined to soon smell like the Cinnabon, I rolled into the purse section. I hate my purse! It is truly an old lady purse and I know it. (I probably bought it at Ross ten years ago because it originally cost $200 and I got it for $20.) I found a darling purse I really loved, but the mark down was only 25% off the original price and there was a Louis Vuitton knock off by Huey Vuitton that just didn’t make the mark, so I left them hanging and headed for shoes. To my delight there was a clearance rack. I love to see what’s on clearance at Ross, because that’s where the price slashings are the best. To my surprise I found some high heels marked down 80% AND they’d go perfectly with my pajamas! How could I pass them up? I tend to believe that anything we think we want whether it’s a new car, a baked potato or a body lotion that smells like an apple pie, we want it because we think it’ll make us feel better. It was clear that my selections made me feel better because of price, but that’s all the further the pleasure went. As I headed to the housewares department I looked at my time. I had about ten minutes to check out the linens and cookware shelves before paying and heading to chorus. It was while holding a plate with butterflies on it that I realized Nelly my inner child was along. (She loves butterflies and dishes.) I was able to tell her to put the plate down because we don’t need any more dishes and it was then that she had a few words to say back to me.

“And you need those God-awful pajamas and high heels to match? And how are you gonna feel after you smear that lotion all over yourself? You’re really walking the line with me cutting out all my goodies because of your stupid low-carb lifestyle and I’m warning you, if you get that lotion and start smelling like a cinnamon roll, I’m going to bake some and you can’t stop me!” Nelly provided a real wake-up call for me. I hung the P.J.s back up, put the lotion and heels back on their shelves and walked out of Ross about $60 richer than I would have AND I won’t be smelling like a cinnamon roll.

Ask the Vet

Redemption From page 5A

My dog is losing his hair? Q: My Lab, Magic, started losing his hair last year in the spring, and now its happening again. A neighbor told me that this happens with some dogs, and it’s related to the weather. Can you tell me more? L.G., Tellico Stephanie Village Myers A: Your Ask neighbor the Vet may be thinking about a condition called seasonal flank alopecia. Alopecia is the medical word for ‘loss of hair’. The hair loss is generally bilateral and on the flanks (on the sides of the abdomen. The condition is not related to the weather, but the change in seasons. Veterinary researchers believe the hair loss is related to the number of daylight hours, which changes rapidly during the spring and the fall. In affected dogs, this causes the hair follicles to stop developing normally. Springtime alopecia tends to be most common. Although the hair falls out, the exposed skin is relatively normal, although sometimes becoming dark and pigmented. The pet is

not itchy, and the skin is not red. Skin infections can occur, but not always. We generally see seasonal flank alopecia in young adult dogs, beginning around 2-5 years of age. The condition is most common in Boxers and Bulldogs, but can occur in any dog. Most dogs will have hair regrowth in 4-8 months. A few dogs will have the hair grow back in a different color, and a few dogs may never have hair regrowth. In affected dogs, it does generally recur every year. Melatonin plays a role in regulating circadian rhythms, and supplementing affected dogs with oral melatonin seems to help with some patients. There are other medical conditions in which dogs can lose hair on their lateral sides, such as thyroid disease, adrenal gland disease, and other skin conditions. Affected dogs should be examined and have blood testing performed to rule out more serious conditions. If Magic hasn’t been examined by your veterinarian recently and he is experiencing the hair loss again, now would be a good time for your veterinarian to see him. Send your veterinary questions to lcac@lenoircityanimalclinic.com

And there's a dance audition.” With Appalachian a member of Southeast Regional Ballet Association, “We’ve performed in Montgomery [Ala.], High Point [N.C.] and various other places,” Mindy said. About Ross, Vaughn said, “She’s very versatile. She’s able to do the contemporary work. She’s also a

very strong ballet dancer. She’s good in jazz and modern. Her acting skills are very good.” Among Ross’s big roles was “as Clara in The Nutcracker several years ago,” Vaughn added. “She’s a delight to work with. … Has big jumps and is good with her turns.” Ross also will appear in “The Portrait” and “Reality” plus “Virulent, a very dramatic contemporary piece suited for very strong dancers” during On the Edge.

RoHAWKtics From page 5A

whether or not RoHAWKtics 3824, aligned with teams from Oak Ridge and Halls, would win this nine-state battle of studentassembled and head to the national competition later this month. Or would it be Knoxville Catholic’s 2393 Robotichauns, aligned with teams from Indiana and Alabama. Suddenly, with the announcer adding drama with “here comes the score,” a red 90 versus blue 73 scored flashed up, and a powder blue eruption of joy set off all around Knoxville Convention Center’s second floor Saturday afternoon, March 30. RoHAWKtics alliance won

region in dramatic fashion and earned a trip to nationals, ending a three-day competition of 49 schools also including teams from Kentucky, Georgia, North Carolina, West Virginia, South Carolina and Mississippi. “Yeah, we cut it really close, and the last [game] we had a few issues, but we pulled it out as a team,” said HVA junior Fletcher Blue, RoHAWKtic captain, as Hardin Valley’s 3824 earned top individual team honors following the first two days of competition March 28-29. “We did really well. I’m glad that we picked the alliance we had. It was all Knoxville [metropolitan area].” Controlled by a handful of that team’s top talent, offensive robots had three basic tasks, the most

important of which was to shoot Frisbees into three slots on it’s offensive side of a 54-by-27-foot competition surface — the smallest, highest middle slot worth the most points. Also, just before the 2-minute15-second games ended, each team’s robot tried to grab onto a pyramid bar and raise completely off the ground — climb points — before the buzzer, earning at least 10 points per robot. With RoHAWKtics and Oak Ridge’s 4265 Wildbots robots on offense, “I was on the control board, so I manipulated the [3824] robot,” Blue said. “[Senior] Thomas Parham was driving. [Senior] Matt Love was the coach, and [sophomore] Sierra Palmer was the human player, she threw

Spellers From page 5A

Farragut’s Seventh Annual Spelling Bee For Adults among eight teams. Moving from its former location in Clayton Performing Arts Center at Pellissippi State’s Hardin Valley Campus, Adult Bee 2013 was held in Faith Lutheran Church annex building, Jamestowne Boulevard. “Sequester Spellers” won despite expressing some doubt during a couple of the later rounds, using most of its allotted two minutes to form consensus before a team member headed to the microphone. “The ones that we debated the most about was the ‘i’ and the ‘a’ sound-words,” Williamson said. “It’s so hard to tell if you’ve never seen the word. It’s so easy to

make a mistake. “It’s kind of luck in a way, the word that you get.” As for Myers and Martin, “I had an excellent team,” said Williamson, a senior economist with National Defense Business Institute at The University of Tennessee. Stiff challenges came from the defending champions and a local college trio. Knox County Sheriff’s Office team, 2012 champs, finished runner-up by being flawless for 15 rounds. Team members were Hillary Coward, Marianne Thompson and KCSO Cpl. Frankie Bynre. “Spell Bound” from Pellissippi State — including Denise Reed, new RCF member and PSCC associate professor — had 14 rounds of perfect spelling before stumbling. Other team members were

Tyra Barrett and Muffett Grubb. Other teams included “The Bad Asymptotoes,” Farragut High School’s trio of seniors Lawrence Wang and Carter Chain, along with junior Akshay Soni. Rotary Club of Turkey Creek Sunset team featured Jennifer Cornwell, Phil Jarnigan and Christine Williams. “Tellico Trio,” Rotary Club of Tellico Lake, included RCF member Judith A. Bradbury along with Domenic Barbaro and Kelly L. Chang. Fourth-place finisher was “Team Happy, Happy, Happy,” West Knox Rotary Club. Ball Camp Bulldogs took fifth-place. Other Adult Bee highlights included longtime RCF member Gene Wessel entertaining the crowd with humor while giving away door prizes. Wessel received valuable help drawing winners

Barber shop goes back to basics ■

ROBBY O’DANIEL rodaniel@farragutpress.com

A barber’s pole outside the shop at 11420-B Kingston Pike signifies two things: A new barber shop has opened in the area, and it hearkens back to a simpler time. Farragut Mens Barber Shop opened in February, and everything about the shop from its name to its website domain — menshaircut.com – is quick and to the point. The website simply lists the essentials: the name of the business, address, hours and three options: a men’s haircut for $12, a beard trim with clippers for $6 or a shampoo for $6. Greg Carroll, owner, got the idea for the shop from hearing other men in his barber’s chair, wishing for a simple, straightforward place to get their hair cut. He has served as a barber for 15 years now and has served as a barber in Blount County and Knoxville previously. Carroll, 54, grew up in Loudon County, so he said owning Farragut Mens Barber Shop is a return home for him. “I’m only 10 minutes from where I grew up, and when I was growing up, I was all over the area here, up and down the roads, going shopping in Knoxville or the movies or wherever,” he said. “So I’m in really

familiar territory.” His jobs before being a barber included “a little bit of everything,” he said, including working in manufacturing, loss prevention and security. On his chosen profession as a barber, Carroll said, “I wouldn’t do anything else.” “I enjoy working with people and giving them what they ask for, as far as a haircut goes,” he added. Carroll finds loyal customers and the conversations with cus-

tomers part of what is enjoyable about his profession. What are customers talking about these days? “About how glad they are that a neighborhood barber shop has opened in this area,” he said. “Honestly that’s been one of the No. 1 topics. It’s been the No. 1 topic.” Carroll said the shop stands out for its simplicity and its status as a neighborhood barber shop. “I wanted the men of Farragut

Smarter Searches’ Courtney Herda speaks to those in attendance at the social media workshop on search engine optimization in Farragut Town Hall Thursday, April 4.

ROBBY O’DANIEL rodaniel@farragutpress.com

To get others to link to a website requires active website marketing, said Smarter Searches’ Courtney Herda at a social media workshop on search engine optimization in Farragut Town Hall Thursday, April 4. “It’s not something that’s passive,” she said. “People aren’t just going to find you because you’re there. It’s like putting your shop in a back corner of a shopping center and putting up a sign and hoping people show up. You’ve got to advertise at least a little bit, so do that with links. Vendors, clients, customers, people you have agreements with, directory listings, get them to link to you.” Town of Farragut, Farragut See SEARCH on Page 2B

Business Alliance and Smarter Searches partnered to present the talk. Herda broke down SEO into three categories: site architecture, content and links. Site architecture refers to the coding and navigation of the site, she said. “The tags in the HTML, navigation, how crawlable your site is – that’s making sure that everything works. All the links work. You don’t have a 404 page come up, things like that.” Content represents the words and keywords on the site, Herda said. “And how quality your content is; if it’s good, if it’s wellwritten,” she said. “Things like misspellings and grammar can count against you.” She called links vital, and website owners should make it easy for search-engine spiders and users to go from one page to another on a website. “Another huge factor – and probably one of the single biggest factors in Google – is your inbound links, and that’s the number of people that are linking to your site,” she said. “It can be a blog. It can be a

vendor, any other website.” Remembering to name images on a website adds another aspect that search engines can see, Herda said. “A lot of times, if someone puts a picture on their site, they might accidentally leave the picture called DSC00724, whatever the digital camera listed it as, but if you rename it picture of my cat, then suddenly the search engines know that it’s a picture of your cat,” she said. “It can’t see the picture. It can’t see your video, but if you tag it correctly, it knows what the content is inside of it.” Getting others to link to a website involves simply having good enough content to entice people to want to link it, she said. Herda stressed specificity and the presence of a call to action in content, so website users have something to do like sign up for a newsletter or follow a business on Facebook. Alex Banakas, of MASSAGE by Terrah Banakas, said the workshop provided good information. “If you want to be found on the Internet, you want to be found on the first page,” he said, “and SEO’s important on getting to the first page.”

Going into his wind-up against Mt. Juliet, Farragut left-hander Shane Mosiello fired a three-hit shutout against the Golden Eagles in a 10-0 Admirals victory.

KEN LAY Correspondent

It was an afternoon of mixed results for the Farragut High School baseball team Saturday, April 6. The Admirals closed out the Farragut Invitational with a 10-0 victory over Mt. Juliet in a game that was called in the bottom of the sixth inning due to the 10run mercy rule. The win against the Golden Bears came after the Admirals dropped a 13-10 decision to T.C. Robertson (North Carolina) earlier in the day. In that game, FHS was down 13-3 after six innings. Farragut finished the game with a 7-run seventh inning. Farragut, which improved to 12-4 with the win versus Mt. Juliet, may have come up a bit short in its comeback bid against Robertson but the Ads used the late rally to build momentum against Mt. Juliet. “I think battling back [against T.C. Robertson] really helped us,” Farragut left fielder Alex Schuettler said. “I think it showed that we could come back and I think it showed that we have that killer instinct that our coach always talks about.” It was Schuettler, the Admirals’ No. 9 hitter, who start-

ed the offensive fireworks in the bottom of the second. He hit a three-run homer off Golden Bears’ starter Zach Austin. “I’ve been struggling at the plate in the last two games,” Schuettler said. “He came in with a fast ball inside and I was able to make good contact.” Schuettler’s home run was Farragut’s first hit of the contest and plated Patrick Raby, who reached on a fielder’s choice and Sam Schultze, who walked. It gave the Ads a 3-0 lead before Anthony El Chibani doubled to chase Austin from the game. Josh Weaver replaced Austin on the mound and walked Jammer Strickland before getting the last two outs of the frame. Farragut extended its advantage to 4-0 in the bottom of the fourth. Strickland had a two-out double. He advanced to third base on a wild pitch. He scored when Weaver uncorked another wild pitch. The Ads picked up another run in the fifth when first baseman Chase Chambers homered off Eli Scheiber to lead off the inning. “He left me a pitch middle in and I went with it,” said Chambers. “I made good contact See FARRAGUT, page 4B

First-half defensive lapses overshadowed a pair of nifty Hardin Valley Academy goals, as the Hawks fell at home against Greeneville in a 4-3 Bearden Invitational loss Friday night, April 5. “The defense kind of fell asleep tonight ... we have to figure out a way to defend better,” Hawks head coach Mike McLean said. Combing Greeneville with a 51 loss to East Hamilton Thursday, April 4, “We’ve let in nine goals in two games. That’s not going to win anything,” McLean said. However, the Hawks (entering the week 1-4-2) played better defensively and tied powerful

and I took it where I needed to go. “It was good to beat a good team that we may see later in the season. I’m sure we didn’t see their No. 1 [pitcher] but it was still a good win for us.” Chambers also said that the comeback bid against T.C. Robertson was huge for the Admirals. “It really got our bats going,” Admirals 10 Chambers said Golden Bears 0 of the seventh-inning rally in the first game. “Everybody just started hitting and it gave us confidence. Confidence is big for you as a hitter.” The win was huge for Farragut but it was especially big for lefthander Shane Mosiello, who hurled a three-hit shutout. He gave up those hits over the first two innings. He had two strikeouts and

scored from about 15 yards out. After a dropped shot on goal allowed Greeneville an easy rebound goal to tie the game, the Hawks went back ahead 2-1 midway through the half. Jeff Lohman, junior midfielder, scored about 12 yards in front after a Green Devils 4 nice baseline pass Hawks 3 from senior midfielder Ethan Haskell following a corner kick. “Cameron Schneider and Rajah Harris, they had a good game,” McLean said. “Jeff Lohman played well. Logan Kington. A lot of guys did some good things.” Schneider said his team “needs to sort something out in the back. We just have too many gaps. We had heart, but it just

walked three. “This was better than my other starts,” said Mosiello, who allowed two hits with two outs in the top of the first but wiggled out of the jam when he struck out Golden Bears’ first baseman Kote Smith to end the inning. “I just threw strikes and I felt better as the game went on.” Mosiello retired the side in order for the first time in the fifth and pitched around a pair of errors in the sixth. The Admirals ended the game with five runs off Robby Amity in the bottom of the frame. Nick Senzel’s two-run single gave Farragut a 7-0 lead. David Logan had an RBI single later in the inning before Brett Hagenow was hit by a pitch with the bases loaded.

We waited and let them get ahead too far before we started to turn our game on.” The Green Devils, which improved to 2-1-1 after the win, proceeded to tie the game after HVA’s defense misjudged a highbouncing pass, allowing Greeneville a breakaway goal. The visitors took their first lead when Drew Fezell simply outran a pair of Hawks defenders for another breakaway goal and a 3-2 GHS halftime lead. A missed penalty kick — hitting the crossbar — prevented a third HVA goal before halftime. Hardin Valley trimmed the difference to 4-3 when Harris headed home a goal, from about 10 yards out, following Ryan’s corner kick midway into the second half. A late Hawks attempt to tie hit the crossbar and bounced away..

Hardin Valley’s biggest extra inning threat came in the bottom of the 10th. Trey Branum walked to begin the inning, then took second on a balk. Faking a sacrifice bunt, Anthony Gambuzza slapped a pitch down the third base line that Lexington’s shortstop fielded near third base, then caught Branum between second and third and tagged him out in a rundown.
