Halls/Fountain City Shopper-News 072213

By Jake MabeThe 10th annual Red Gate

Festival and Rodeo was a big hit July 12-13 at Red Gate Farm in Maynardville.

Organizer Butch Butch-er says the good weather helped bring big crowds on Friday and Saturday, with an estimated 4,000 attend-ing the second night.

“It being outside, it all depends on the weather,” Butcher said. “But it’s good family entertainment for the people of Union County and other surrounding areas.”

Spur ’N S Rodeo Compa-ny of Blaine (Mike Stalans) spearheads the rodeo and Butcher says the outfi t does a great job.

“He hires No. 1 rodeo people. Mike Wentworth, the clown, lives in South Carolina and grew up in Blaine. Rodeo MC, Mark Northal is also the MC at Dixie Stampede. They work well together and that’s what makes the rodeo.”

Butcher says the event began as just a rodeo and evolved to include music, food, merchandise vendors

and a game area for children. Halls native Greylan James (Egan) was the featured entertainer this year.

“We may split it off and have a separate area for music in the fu-ture, perhaps have an area for the bands to play after the rodeo.

“We plan to keep it going.”

Remembering Jenkins & Jenkins

For them, the demise of the Jenkins & Jenkins name is one more marker of the end of an era. The fi rm that was founded in 1933 by the unrelated Ray H. Jenkins and Erby Jenkins (Erby’s brother Aubrey didn’t join up until 10 years later), has become Quist, Cone & Fisher.

The legendary fi rm hasn’t dissolved, says J&J managing partner Michael Fitzpatrick, who has been a partner with the fi rm since 1980. “It’s just changing names.”

Community mourns Bud CoomerBy Sandra Clark

Bud Coomer was such a Foun-tain City fi xture that we all expect-

ed him to be there forever, sitting with his buddies at Litton’s round table, telling tales and knowing everybody who walked by.

That tie to Fountain City’s

past ended July 17 when Walter E. “Bud” Coomer Sr. passed away at Tennova Residential Hospice. He was 84.

Ronald Hill worked with Mr. Coomer at Mynatt Funeral Home since 1961. “We spent a lot of days together,” he said. “He and Bill Payne helped me get my start.”

Hill was part of the Mynatt lunch bunch, men in suits who ate together, always at a Fountain City restaurant.

“We started going to the Blue Circle. Bud’s wife was a part of the Blue Circle family and she worked there in the offi ce until they sold out.

“Then we went to Stevens Drug Store, and then Ray Acuff’s and then the Amber. Lately, since

Mary died, the only place Bud wanted to eat was Litton’s. We ate there every day,” Hill said.

Bud was president of Mynatt Funeral Home, where he had worked since 1948. His son, Bud-dy, continues to work there.

Services were held over the weekend, and Mr. Mynatt was buried at Greenwood Cemetery. He was a member of Salem Baptist Church.

Survivors include his son, Walter E. “Buddy” Coomer Jr.; grandchildren Ashley and An-drea Coomer; sister-in-law Ruth Coomer.

from UT including a bachelor’s in landscape design and construction. He chairs the Young Republican Club of Knox County and attends Gospel Baptist Church.

William E. Johnson, 77, of Widdecomb Road, Powell, holds a bachelor’s degree in mechanical en-gineering from UT and a master’s in business administration from National University in San Diego. After a 20-year military career, he worked as maintenance depart-ment superintendent for the Las Vegas Valley Water District for two years. He is active in Halls Christian Church.

Thomas Wenning, 28, of Country Run Circle, Powell, is a program manager at Oak Ridge Na-tional Laboratories. He holds both bachelor’s and master’s degrees in mechanical engineering from the University of Dayton. His commu-nity involvement is science-related, including service as a science fair judge at St. Mary’s School.

A committee of four – Commis-sioners Kevin Julian and Todd Cook and two staff members selected by CEO Darren Cardwell – will in-terview the applicants and recom-mend three to the board. The board will then submit three names to Burchett who can select one or re-ject all, throwing the process back to HPUD for three more nominees.

On a motion by Cook, the inter-views will be open to the public.

Also, at a somewhat raucous meeting Thursday, three citizens voiced concerns and HPUD attor-ney John Valliant fi red back at one.

Robert Hammond of Halls asked if HPUD leaders had served in the military. Valliant told him that was not relevant. Hammond then chal-lenged Cardwell on his salary and benefi ts.

“I make $154,000, and bought my own car and pay for my gas,” said Cardwell. State law says board

He was preceded in death by his wife of 52 years, Mary; par-ents, Walter C. and Clara Mynatt Coomer; sister and her husband, Helen and Charles Kem; and brother, Charlie Coomer.

Mynatt Funeral Home was es-tablished in 1900 in Halls by Ear-nest Mynatt. His son, Kyle Mynatt, moved the business to Fountain City in 1929. In 2005, a second lo-cation was opened at 4131 E. Em-ory Road, very near the fi rst site at the original Halls Crossroads.

Over 113 years, Mynatt Funeral Home has touched every family in these parts. “Bud was good at funeral work,” said Ronald Hill. “He knew how to do things and he liked to work with th e common people. We still try to do that.”

A peek inside the cul-ture of Tibet and the life of monks was shared when the Fountain City United Meth-odist Church Sunday school class, Twenty-fi rst Century Christians, hosted a contin-gent of monks at the church last week.

Tibet comes to Fountain City

The seven monks, several of whom have traveled to the U.S. before, came here from their monastery in India, Labrang Tashi Kyil, where they re-established the mon-astery after their home in Tibet was destroyed during China’s Cultural Revolution in 1967.

The original monastery in

The Tibetans celebrate their “celestial

animal,” the Snow Lion. It symbolizes fear-

lessness and unconditional cheerfulness.

The Tibetans demonstrate the process of debate in the monasteries, important as a way to learn

Buddhist philosophy. “Ignorance is the root cause of suff ering, and wisdom is the antidote to

ignorance,” the monks explain. The lively exchange contains highly symbolic movements, such

as the upraised arm representing a sword of knowledge, cutting through ignorance.

fi rst Century Christians receives gifts from Tenpa Phuntsok in

Tibet has since been rebuilt, but the monks are in India near their beloved leader, the Dalai Lama.

The monks offered songs, prayers and offerings to “enhance positive energy and to purify negative in-fl uences,” and also demon-strated dances.

One of the dances is the Tashi Shoelpa, to bring good luck and good omens. It is performed with the dancers in white-bearded masks to symbolize long life and good health.

The Giant Panda cud-dled up to the crowd by crawling between rows, al-lowing everyone to delight in the remarkably realistic costume. At the end of his appearance, he held up a sign that said, “I’m from Ti-bet; Save Animal.”

The yak was paid homage with fl ute-playing by the ver-satile monk, Tenpa Phuntsok.

Yaks are native to the Hima-layan mountains, and have been domesticated for 5,000 years.

Phuntsok exhibited his incredible talent at “throat chanting,” an impossibly low register of sound, at the mandala ceremony at Tennessee Valley Unitarian Universalist Church. While all of the visiting monks spoke some English, Phunt-sok acts as the offi cial trans-lator for the group.

The Fountain City guests were treated to a tradition-al Buddhist debate, with a few of the debate-specifi c words translated on paper for the audience to listen for. Gestures are impor-tant, with the use of the left hand representing wisdom, the right hand represent-ing method, and the clap a union of the two.

Many guests took home Tibetan-made items of jewel-

gered Giant Panda of Tibet, asks everyone to

ry, silks, bowls and, of course, prayer fl ags.

The monks’ Fountain City visit was during the four-day creation of a mandala at TVUUC. They used colored sand to “paint” a circular de-sign depicting the unity of all religions and humanity.

And to represent the im-permanence of all phenom-ena, the intricate art was ceremoniously swept up, car-ried to the creek behind the church and poured into the moving water.

The event was a benefi t for the monastery, where there is a need for structural repair, expansion and better facilities.

MY TWO CENTS

JakeMabe

It was just what the doc-tor ordered.

If you’ll forgive a quick personal note, the past few weeks haven’t been the greatest in the world. My grandmother passed away July 6. And, last weekend, I began to experience some of the worst lower back pain I’ve ever had in my life. Turns out I have sciatica. Go ahead and insert an old man joke here if you want.

Anyway, the interns wrapped up their summer stay at the Shopper last week. Sara Barrett called to tell me the last stop on the tour was going to be Cider-ville Music Barn on Clinton Highway. David West was going to pick a little and tell stories about Cas Walker. Sammy “Barney Fife” Saw-yer and Bo “Briscoe Dar-ling” Pierce were stopping by with the Mayberry squad car.

“You’ll love it!” Sara said. So I hobbled over to Ci-

derville. And, boy howdy, did we

have a good time. Sammy did his pitch-

perfect Barney Fife. We re-enacted the scene from the Griffi th Show’s “Barney and the Choir” episode, in which Andy tells Barney he’ll be singing solo during “good ol’ 14-A” from a high-powered microphone and needs to sing really quietly. (What Barney doesn’t know, of course, is that Andy has recruited a bass singer to stand behind the curtain to do the actual singing for tone-deaf Barney.)

As you may know, David West played in Cas Walker’s band for years. He told Cas stories, the kind of stuff even the most imaginative writer couldn’t make up.

and Home Hour” theme. I jumped into Cas’ routine about security in his super-markets’ parking lots. (Look it up on YouTube.)

Then David rattled off some of the famous names who got their start on Cas’ show: Dolly Parton, The Everly Brothers, others.

“Hey,” I asked, “did Carl Butler ever sing on Cas’ show?”

“Oh, yeah,” David said. “Well, why don’t we sing

a little bit of ‘Don’t Let Me Cross Over’ then?”

Guess who got all excited and sang lead?

I got to worrying the in-terns (who are all of high-school age) might have thought they had landed on Mars, but they seemed to like the music.

As we were pickin’ and grinnin,’ I looked around the room. Sammy was tap-ping his leg, just like Barney used to do. Bo Pierce was blowing into his jug. David was playing that banjo like only he can.

I grinned from ear to ear. “You were like a child at

Christmas,” somebody said later.

Just what the doctor or-dered.

■ Cleaning up KnoxIn about fi ve minutes last

Tuesday, Allison Teeters col-lected a bag fi lled with litter in the parking lot at Beaver Brook Country Club. It in-cluded two cups from fast food restaurants, a beer can and, mostly, cigarette butts.

Teeters, the executive director of Keep Knoxville Beautiful, didn’t do it to em-barrass anyone, but to show the Halls Business and Pro-fessional Association that litter is a problem every-where.

“Eighty percent of lit-ter starts on the roadway and ends up in our water,” Teeters said. “Last year, the United States spent $11.5 billion on litter and the state of Tennessee spent $11 mil-lion.”

She praised organi-zations and community groups like the Halls Cross-roads Women’s League, which regularly holds litter pick-ups. She encouraged individuals and businesses to get involved.

“I want Knoxville to be the most beautiful city in America. Once you’ve picked it up, you’ll never lit-ter again, even accidentally.”

Bob Temple spoke against construction of wastewater storage tanks, arguing that money would be better spent to repair leaking lines.

Bonnie Holloway asked how the summer sewer cred-its are working. Cardwell said some customers have saved money, but the heavy rains have meant less water usage. He said June had 9.3 inches of rain against a June average of .31 inches.

HPUD set 19 water me-ters in June and inspected 7 sewer hookups. The district processed 239.2 million gallons of water and 255.7 million gallons of wastewa-ter. Payments were OK’d for $120,398 to Judy Construc-tion for the Raccoon Val-ley Wastewater Treatment Plant and $58,829 to ES&H Inc. for the Clinton Highway improvements at Cherokee Ridge. Cardwell said both projects are nearing comple-tion.

Cas Walker, Knoxville Madam Hazel Davidson and Ray H. Jenkins were three of Knoxville’s best-known 20th Century citizens, so it should surprise no one that both Walker and Davidson chose Jenkins to represent them when they had need of a lawyer.

Cas and Hazel and Ray ... and money

In 1961, the Internal Rev-enue Service got Walker in-dicted in federal court for tax evasion, and he hired Jenkins and Clyde Key to defend him. Jenkins wrote about it in his memoir, “The Terror of Tellico Plains.”

“What he lacked in erudi-tion he made up for in i mag-ination.

“For instance, he sent out statements of account to a previous owner’s custom-ers which he knew had been paid, and when the irate customer came in to pro-test, Cas would apologize,

hoping they would see he had an honest face. He then marked the old accounts paid in full, thus making new friends.”

Jenkins’ trial strategy was to play Walker’s popu-larity with common folks against the unpopularity of the IRS, which had sent a fancy prosecutor down from Washington. Jenkins por-trayed Walker’s tax prob-lems as understandable bookkeeping errors unwit-tingly committed by a naive, humble man.

“With the unwitting help of the government we made a martyr out of him,” Jen-kins said. “We were careful to select a jury of the com-mon people, Cas’s peers, who saw the farm boy, the coal miner, the benefactor of children and needy fami-lies ridiculed and reviled as no other man within our recollection had ever been. The jury resented it.”

They found Walker not guilty.

Jenkins conceded that the feds had some powerful evidence, “But the govern-

ment didn’t have a chance against the ex-coal miner, merchant, politician and benefactor. For our services he paid us $100,000 with-out batting an eye.”

The payday wasn’t as good on one of the occasions when he represented David-son, whom he described as his “most glamorous client beyond compare.”

She was being sued by a wealthy former suitor, who wanted her to repay nearly $60,000, which he claimed was a loan. Davidson said it was for services rendered. The boyfriend won in Chan-cery Court, but Davidson prevailed in the Court of Appeals, where the judges didn’t buy his claim.

The next chapter wasn’t in his book, however. For-mer law partner Jim Mac-Donald remembers that the cash-strapped Davidson gave Jenkins a diamond ring in lieu of payment, which he kept in a safe until she was able to settle up. One week-end, she asked Jenkins if she could borrow back her ring to wear to a party. He

On July 12, Gov. Bill Haslam signed the paper-work necessary to transfer the remaining state-owned portion of Lakeshore Park to the city of Knoxville.

Lakeshore land secured for city

The Rogero Administra-tion will have to present it to the city council for approval, which should oc-cur soon. $5 million of the proposed city bond issue is to be used for the enlarged Lakeshore Park.

The governor and the city administration deserve praise for working to make this happen and stopping the legislation by state Rep. Steve Hall to sell the state land which would have prevented this transfer.

Interim Finance Com-missioner Larry Martin of Knoxville played an active role moving this project along.

■ Mayor Rogero and Knoxville were honored by her invitation from the White House to participate in a July 10 panel discus-sion at the Eisenhower Executive Offi ce Building (formerly the War Depart-ment before the Pentagon was built).

Rogero was one of four panelists and represented the largest population of any of the panelists on the “Let’s Move” project spearheaded by First Lady Michelle Obama. The mayor also participated in a National League of Cities meeting on the same one-day trip to Washington.

City taxpayers got hit by the high cost of same-day air travel on this trip with the mayor’s air ticket cost-ing $1,625 to go and return from Washington the same day. One can fl y round trip to London, Rome or Tokyo for far less than this. Some-times purchasing the ticket a few weeks in advance will reduce the cost substan-tially. Rogero is not to blame for how U.S. Airways overprices its tickets for one-day trips.

Kathleen Gibi with city parks and recreation was also at the event, but city spokesperson Jesse May-shark says the city did not pay her airfare, only her ho-tel and per diem expenses.

As long as government agencies like DOE in Oak Ridge are willing to pay full freight, then airlines will charge exorbitant fares

because they can get away with it. In both cases, the taxpayers are paying the bill.

■ When Fort Kid was built by volunteer labor on the edge of the World’s Fair Park more than 21 years ago, the sponsors wisely created a fund (now over $60,000) to maintain, repair and renovate the Fort in the future.

The city announced plans to phase out Fort Kid a few years ago (under a different mayor) without any public hearing and sug-gested cost as a factor. That argument becomes suspect when Beth Waters, who is in charge of the fund, tells this writer that no one from the city has ever contacted her about using the fund to re-solve issues with Fort Kid.

We should remember that school children in the early 1990s collected pennies, nickels and dimes to fund the 5-day, around-the-clock effort to build the Fort. The late Gov. Ned McWherter visited the park during its construction.

After asking the city why no one had ever contacted Waters, who led the effort to build Fort Kid, Mayshark said the mayor will be call-ing Waters to discuss the issue. By the time you read this, that conversation likely will have occurred, but the outcome is not known to me as the column is written.

Countless children have used this playground. Tax dollars would not have to be used to upgrade the park due to this fund. If this fund is not used, many people may wonder why the city declined to use these funds raised by countless citizens. Using the funds seems very logical given the alternatives.

Mayshark says the city currently plans to turn the playground into a green space. It would be a very small green space and cost the city considerable money to remove the gravel along with the play equipment, then plant and maintain grass. Would it have a pic-nic table or benches?

While the south yard of the World’s Fair Park is a well-used and remarkable green space, the footprint of Fort Kid is so small that its use as a grass lawn seems restrictive.

Hopefully, the mayor and Beth Waters can reach an agreement which is a win-win for the total com-munity and those who have enjoyed Fort Kid. I recall both my children playing there in the ’90s, often along with many ot hers.

agreed, and she returned it promptly. Much later, when it became apparent that she wasn’t going to pay, he had the ring appraised. It was a hunk of worthless cubic zir-conia. She’d pulled a classic bait and switch.

He was nevertheless gra-cious in his assessment of her in his memoir, calling her “fundamentally and es-sentially, and to the core of her heart, body and soul, a good woman,” proving that the Terror of Tellico Plains had a forgiving nature.

On my list of things that make no sense:

Commissioner Dave Wright voted no on three education consent items, which by court decree must be passed by County Com-mission. The votes were at last Monday’s workshop, but surely will be replicated at today’s meeting.

Actually, I agree with Wright on two of the three votes. He said “no” to giv-ing the Boston-based Par-thenon Group $1.2 million to study the school system’s resources alignment; and “no” to a $350,000 or so local match to a $850,000 grant from the Bill and Me-linda Gates Foundation to support the Parthenon con-tract.

Call those votes “wright on!”

Baffl ing though is Dave’s no vote on the proposed Career and Technical Edu-cation high school at the Strawberry Plains campus

Some things don’t make sense

of Pellissippi State Commu-nity College.

It’s in his district, and seems to be a wonderful op-portunity for certain high school students to gain col-lege credit while studying careers of the future.

Wright said he was blind- sided by the CTE proposal, thinking that Knox County Schools’ involvement would be limited to juniors and se-niors.

To create a full-blown high school just down the road from Carter High School is a different concept and will cost a lot of money, he said, “and we’ve had ab-

solutely no discussion.”He noted: “I didn’t em-

Hmmm. That would be the L&N STEM Academy that has a waiting list of ap-plicants.

U.S. Rep. Steve Co-hen, D-Memphis, said he’s “stunned and dismayed” to learn that DNA tests re-vealed he is not the father of a woman with whom he had an affectionate Twitter exchange this year.

As reported in the Mem-phis Daily News online, Cohen is not the dad of 24-year-old Victoria Brick of Texas.

This became an issue when Cohen was caught tweeting during the Presi-dent’s State of the Union Address. Honest.

Cohen says he’s longtime friends with Brick’s mom, criminal defense lawyer Cynthia White Sinatra, who ran for Congress in 2006

When 11 politicians get to vote, you can bet they will pick someone they’ve heard of for a job that should not even still exist.

Bob Hammond saidthe world’s got too many lawyers when John Valliant challenged him at an HPUD meeting.

Later, Valliant said, “Well, I don’t disagree.”

And Mike Cohen (no re-lation to Steve Cohen) told a lawyer joke:

“What do you call 500 lawyers at the bottom of the sea?

“A start.”

Maybe a joke, or maybe not.

“Tip O’Neill said all poli-tics are local, and Aubrey was a local guy, wired in with Bobby ‘Coal Man’ Toole and Paul ‘Ice Man’ Nicely.

“He was a force, and you needed to expect him when you saw him c o m i n g . Ray and Erby were top dog law-yers, but Aubrey had more busi-

ness than either of them. When Aubrey was gone, it was almost mystical how the phones would stop ring-ing. He’d get back, and al-most mystically the phones would start ringing again,” said former partner Jim MacDonald.

Howard Jenkins, whose oratory rattled the walls of East Tennessee courtrooms for nearly 60 years.

He burst onto the national scene in 1954 when Sen. Ev-erett Dirksen recruited him to serve as special counsel to the Senate Subcommittee on Investigations in the Army-McCarthy Hearings, the fi rst such proceedings ever to be televised nationwide (think of it as the Watergate Hear-ings of the ’50s).

Over three months, char-acters like the big, redhead-ed Tennessean, the young Bobby Kennedy and the elo-quent Bostonian Joe Welch entered the national con-versation about red-baiting Sen. Joseph McCarthy. Jen-kins left such a dramatic impression that he landed on the cover of Time Maga-zine and inspired L’il Abner cartoonist Al Capp to add a new character, fi ery lawyer Y.Y.

For them, the demise of the Jenkins & Jenkins name is one more marker of the end of an era. The fi rm that was founded in 1933 by the unrelated Ray H. Jenkins and Erby Jenkins (Erby’s brother Aubrey didn’t join up until 10 years later), has become Quist, Cone & Fish-er.

The legendary fi rm hasn’t dissolved, says J&J manag-ing partner Michael Fitzpat-rick, who has been a partner with the fi rm since 1980. “It’s just changing names.

“It’s still the same legal entity and has the same tax number,” Fitzpatrick said. “It did not dissolve.”

Why the change? “The younger members

of the fi rm didn’t know the founding members, and there are adjustments that have to be made as you prog-ress through the history of anything. The younger peo-ple here who are trying to market their skills need some pride of ownership, and (the name change) fi ts the identity of the fi rm in the present.”

In the beginningThe three Jenkinses

made an unparalleled team. Tall, bombastic Ray H. Jenkins was a genius trial lawyer. Short, erudite Erby Jenkins was a brilliant strat-egist and legal writer whose political infl uence reached to the state and national level and who, when sitting as a special judge on the state Supreme Court, authored a witty opinion on a divorce case that is still cited today. His younger brother Aubrey was a consummate deal-maker whose control over

Defi ning failure “Aubrey regarded a trial as a failure of pre-trial ne-

gotiations.” – Jim MacDonald, partner, Jenkins & Jenkins, 1974-1995

MacDonald

Meeting the Pope“One morning I get a call about 9 o’clock from

Mr. Aubrey saying ‘Irishman, you need to go over to George Balitsaris’ court and get a case passed. I have an audience with the Pope in South Carolina.’

“So I hustle over there and the pros-ecutor, Jo Helm, isn’t inclined to post-pone it again.

“I ask what kind of case it is, and it’s a fi rst-degree murder case. Holy crap! I’m panicked. I don’t know the client.

“Then court opens, and Judge Balit-saris looks at me and says, ‘Aubrey’s in

South Carolina with the Pope. We’ll need to continue this case.’

“Mr. Aubrey got back a couple days later and gave me a rosary.”– Dennis Francis, partner, Jenkins & Jenkins, 1981-1989

kins, like the Jenkins broth-ers, was the son of a country doctor. By the time he got his law license in 1919, he was already a veteran of both the U.S. Army and Navy, having interrupted his University of Tennessee law school career to serve under General Per-shing in Texas during the Pancho Villa rebellion, and shortly thereafter enlisting in the Navy when World War I broke out.

He participated in his fi rst murder trial in Texas, representing himself and a friend after they were court-martialed for shooting the company bully. He won ac-quittals, and said he learned a tactic he never forgot: “When a bully has been killed, prove enough on him and paint him so mean that the jury will want to dig him up and kill him again.” (from his memoir, “The Ter-ror of Tellico Plains.”)

A historical marker at his family home boasts that none of the 600 murder de-fendants he represented ever went to the electric chair.

Jim MacDonald, who came into the fi rm during Ray Jenkins’ twilight years and assisted on Jenkins’ last jury trial, remembers him as “not only an irre-pressible, dominating per-sonality, but a hellacious lawyer. People did not give him credit for what a good lawyer he was.”

MacDonald recalls two instances where Jenkins was right on the issues and

Dressing as Santa“Ray Jenkins was my very best friend for many,

many years, and I have the highest regard for him of anybody I’ve ever known except my father.

“Something most people don’t realize was his gen-erosity. Every December he’d take two weeks off and with the assistance of his wife and secretary, he’d get on the phone and solicit the people of Knoxville for the Empty Stocking Fund.

“As a lawyer, your time is your stock in trade, and it takes a big heart to do something like that. On Christ-mas, he’d dress up as Santa Claus and pay my family a visit with a gift for each of my children. He’d tell them stories about what was going on at the North Pole, and he was a great storyteller.

“One year, my daughter Carolyn came to me and said, ‘Daddy is Mr. Jenkins going to come back on Easter?’”

– Paul Dunn, partner, Jenkins & Jenkins 1964-1995

everybody else was wrong.“He had unparalleled in-

stincts for when to do things and when not to do things in a trial. I got to know him far after his prime and he was still better than all the rest of us.”

The last trialOf that last trial, Mac-

Donald says, “We were very

anxious to fi nd out if there were any eyewitnesses, and Ray managed to get one of the state’s witnesses on the stand at the preliminary hearing.

“I came back laughing at how he’d bulldozed his way over objections of the attor-ney general and convinced the judge he should be en-titled to put on his case.”

Until further notice, Charlie High is my fa-vorite Tennessee football walk-on.

Charlie High: Favorite UT football walk-on

Nobody can match his quarterback statistics – back-to-back state cham-pionships for Christian Academy of Knoxville, 74.4 completion rate, 10,978 yards, 131 passing touchdowns against 22 interceptions, astounding success.

Few can come close to his level of desire and determination. He has been told again and again that the odds are stacked against him. He just isn’t

big enough. He reacted by working doggedly to add bulk and strength.

When Vol fans debate the upcoming quarterback race, the first argument is whether Justin Worley can ward off Nathan Pe-terman. Threatening from a distance are the highly recruited freshmen, Josh-ua Dobbs and Riley Fergu-son. Maybe by game 5 one will take over.

Charlie High isn’t even mentioned.

A weaker man might be discouraged or have his spirit crushed. But this one has been there before. He has endured doubts, disinterest and rejection. Recruiting was a tortur-ous experience. Every-body kept asking where he was going to college.

Charlie had choices. Liberty and Tusculum of-fered. And, finally, UT-

The Bible does not mention cats.

No cats. At all.Kitty-cats are nowhere

to be found in Scripture. (Believe me; I have searched!) Tigers are left out as well, presumably because they were not native to the Middle East. There are a few mentions of lions and lionesses, usually symbolizing the destroyer (not a fl attering picture of

The felines among us And among the nations the remnant of Jacob,

surrounded by many people, shall be like a lion among the animals of the forest, like a young lion among the fl ocks of sheep, which, when it goes through, treads down and tears in pieces, with no one to deliver.

(Micah 5: 8 NRSV)

My curiosity sent me to my biblical maps to find out just where Noah’s ark presumably landed, because there must have been cats aboard, right? Lions, leopards, tigers? Mount Ararat is located in Turkey, just across the Armenian border, at the juncture of Europe, Asia and relatively close to Africa. How convenient for Noah, when it was time to disembark, and send all those critters on their way home!

One of my favorite scenes in the 1966 movie “The Bible” (produced by Dino De Laurentiis and

directed by John Huston) is when Noah’s wife demands of her husband, “How are we going to feed all these lions and tigers?” Noah (played by Huston himself) calmly replies, “Well, they are just great cats!” as he sets down a bowl of milk before the beasts.

My husband’s cat (aptly named Kitty Kat) arrived on the scene by misfortune. Or perhaps I should say, more accurately, by Providence. She was a tiny kitten, not old enough to be weaned, when someone heartlessly set her out beside the road near Lewis’ house. He found her, and rescued her (or she rescued him, because until her arrival he was alone and lonely).

He took her in, fed her with a medicine dropper, and she became his constant companion, his familiar, his friend.

She has expressive green eyes, and black, black fur, with about six white hairs on the scruff of her neck. She is, quite simply, elegant. I remind her frequently that if she had lived in ancient Egypt, she would have been considered a goddess. I am convinced she is pleased by that news.

She loves me and has accepted me graciously, but she is still Lewis’ cat, and he is her person. She goes to his office with him every day, and has two perches there: one on a table at the end of his desk, and the other on a

chair beside a windoweddoor where she can surveyher domain.

I found some feathersscattered across theparking lot the other day,and realized that KittyKat, like every feline, isat heart a predator, nomatter how domesticated.I am grateful she did notfeel the need to share herprey with me. I like birdsas long as there is glassbetween me and theirbeaks and claws, and evena feather gives me theshivers.

I am grateful KittyKat permits me to live inher house, and that shegraciously allows me tolove her person.

But I should expect noless. She is, after all, alady.

those magnifi cent animals).To be fair, dogs also get

a bum rap in the Bible. They are mentioned only with derision.

Charlie High

Martin and Tennessee Tech showed interest. None of those had a place in his dream.

I remember when a Kentucky fan, hooked on faulty facts, said Charlie High might be the most underrated prep quarter-back in America. The guy thought High was 6-2.

He isn’t. He is 5-11 and

seven/eighths without socks. He was 176 last sea-son. He is now 190. When he takes a deep breath, he is six feet tall.

College coaches prefer Peyton Manning-sized quarterbacks who can see over large linemen. High must move his feet and find ways to look around them.

Condredge Holloway became a Tennessee leg-end without being very tall. Perhaps you have heard of Doug Flutie. Sonny Jurgensen, 5-11, is in the Pro Football Hall of Fame.

Drew Brees is the best six-footer currently con-ducting business in the NFL. Before him were Fran Tarkenton, Len Daw-son and Joe Theismann. All are exceptions to the tallness rule.

But wait, wait, you say,

the game has changed so much and those famous names were very athlet-ic, nifty scramblers with power arms.

Here High takes an-other hit. He is accused of being a “system” quarter-back. We are told his very bright coach, Rusty Brad-ley, and the school team made Charlie a winner instead of the other way around. Three excellent receivers – Davis Howell, Josh Smith and Franklin Murchison – made it hap-pen.

Few mention High’s strengths, football in-stincts, poise under du-ress, terrific touch, amaz-ing accuracy. Can he de-liver peak performance under pressure? Check his numbers in state playoff games.

Walk-ons who come to Tennessee with minimum

encouragement, work like heck and eventually con-tribute earn my lasting respect.

Walk-ons who climb far above expectations, crash the starting lineup and win scholarships become treasured success sto-ries. Think Tim Townes, Jeff Powell, Alan Duncan, Steve Robinson and the Sullins twins, Cody and Cory.

Walk-ons who defy limitations and just keep pushing, up and up, un-til they become leaders of men – captains Mike LaSorsa, J.J. McCleskey, Nick Reveiz – are unfor-gettable!

Charlie High is a Vol-unteer because he really, really wants to be. That is my best reason to cheer. Marvin West invites reader reaction. His

Rutherford Memorial United Methodist Church has been holding a food pantry for years. Stephanie Doyal decided to take that a bit further.

“I’ve worked in the food pantry distributing food for several years and saw how great the need was,” she said. “I wanted to do more to help feed the hungry and I thought they needed more than nonperishable items.”

Stephanie says she has always had a love for gar-dening, and the idea of a community garden seemed like a good way to help peo-ple get fresh vegetables. As a Girl Scout, Stephanie can use the garden as her Gold Award project. This is the highest level of achievement in Girl Scouts and requires Council approval, a lot of planning and at least 80

hours of work by the project leader.

Steve Doyal, Stephanie’s dad and pastor at Ruther-ford Memorial UMC, and mom Becky are also in-volved with the garden.

“Stephanie had a heart for the people who came to the food pantry, and that led to this project,” said Steve. “She has enjoyed garden-ing with me since she could walk, so this developed nat-urally.”

The planning began last fall with the site selection at the church and recruitment

of volunteers. The initial plowing was done in April by Oakes Farm, with the planting in May. Plants were donated by the Ag depart-ment at Union County High School, Sun Up Garden Club and Holden Nursery. Mone-tary donations were instru-mental in providing funds for fertilizer and seeds.

Produce is available for anyone who volunteers to work in the garden. Work days are every Satur-

day (weather permitting) through the end of the sea-son. The bulk of the crop will go to the Corryton Food Pantry hosted by Ruther-ford Memorial UMC.

Rutherford Memorial UMC and the community garden are located at 7815 Corryton Road.

Local fl avor: milk, music and moreWeek seven with the interns

By Sara BarrettLast week’s meeting of

the Shopper interns was bit-tersweet. Fun was had by all, but sadly, it was the group’s last trip of the summer.

A tour of Broadacres Dairy

gave the group a look at Wei-gel’s process for making its fa-mous milk, and lunch at Lulu’s gave the interns a chance to play dress-up while enjoying delicious teatime fare.

Finally, a trip to Ciderville

music store showed the light-er side of local history with stories of Cas Walker, hunt-ing dogs and Barney Fife’s bullet with a few banjo-led jam sessions thrown in for good measure.

The Shopper-News staff is already looking forward to next summer’s activities, and the interns must have enjoyed it, too, because most were asking to return for a second summer!

Touring Broadacres Dairy

Lunch at Lulu’s Tea RoomUpon hearing the loca-

tion for lunch, several of the male interns rolled their eyes as thoughts of rose-covered table cloths and dainty finger sand-wiches no doubt filled their heads. But after vis-iting Lulu’s Tea Room and tasting the food, stomachs were happy and everyone left smiling.

Menu selections at Lu-lu’s included chicken and almond quiche, tomato dill soup, sweet bread and raspberry iced tea. Bailey Sizemore gave us excellent service and kept everyone’s glasses filled. Afterward, the interns took a peek at the themed rooms upstairs including one completely devoted to Elvis. A green and pink room is also available for princess tea parties.

In addition to the food, several interns also en-

joyed dressing up in the hats that were on hand for anyone in a whimsical tea party mood. Info: 947-5858 or visit www.lulus-tearoom.com.

Next year …We’re recruiting now for interns for the summer

of 2014. If you know a youngster who will be in 8th grade this fall (a rising freshman next summer), please email or call Sara Barrett at [email protected] or 342-6616. There’s no charge and no pay.

By Sandra ClarkWhat happens to milk

after the cow is milked until you grab a pint or gallon at the grocery?

The Shopper-News in-terns set out to solve this mystery with a visit to Wei-gel’s and its companion business Broadacres Dairy.

What we learned was amazing.

The original Broadacres farm (Emory Road in Pow-ell) was bigger than 700 acres and began as a veg-etable farm more than 100 years ago.

Weigel’s Convenience Stores is now headed by Bill Weigel, grandson of the founder. Bill’s son Kurt also works there.

The farm supported a dairy herd from 1931 until the 1970s, when the herd was sold off and much of the farm was divided into the Broadacres subdivision. The barns remain, well-maintained and used for storage.

Milk is bought from East Tennessee farmers, hauled in tankers and stored in

cooler tanks awaiting pro-cessing. Broadacres Dairy tests incoming milk to en-sure its safety and to make sure it’s not been watered down. It takes about 20 minutes to test the milk be-fore it is accepted and an-other 20 minutes to unload the tanker.

Douglas Rouch, the plant manager, led our tour. He moved here from Indiana 12 years ago. His goal is to make every Weigel’s prod-

uct a cut above the compe-tition, he said. “We’ve got 63 stores right now and our goal is 100.”

In the lab, Robert Semple talked about various tests – from chemical to taste – that are run to ensure milk quality.

Weigel’s is launching a new product soon – a Cap-puccino Chiller that’s “half the price of Starbucks,” said Rouch.

After all this, two interns had the same question: “Why is the W off-center in the logo?”

“That makes it our trade-mark,” said Rouch.

The interns had no idea why we stopped at an old building on Clinton High-way, just over the Ander-son County line, and why Barney Fife’s cruiser was parked out front.

The folks at Ciderville quickly brought them up to speed (or confused them more) by pulling up chairs and breaking into song with store owner David West on banjo, Jodi Harbin on upright bass, Bo Pierce on the jug and Sammy Sawyer chiming in occasionally as his alter ego, Barney Fife.

“You got any requests?” asked West. “If you do, write ’em on a $10 bill!”

Customers attracted by the car and musicians drift-ed in off the street to join the mayhem. Even reporter Jake Mabe broke into song, channeling George Jones and Carl Butler. “That, my friends, is country music,” he told the interns. Most had just sunk down to sit on the fl oor.

West told tales of local legend Cas Walker includ-ing one absolutely hilarious story of cramming three musicians into the backseat of a car for a trip to Ken-

country music.By Paul Brooks

This summer began with most of the interns (including this one) feeling a bit nervous because we didn’t know what to expect. Eagerness is the word that best describes the general feeling. What would we do? Where would we go? What would we learn?

We visited places that sometimes go unnoticed such as the statue of Alex Haley, the Weigel’s farm, and Chandler’s Restaurant. We found ourselves eating in some of the best restaurants in town (let me just say: that was a favorite of mine!).

We visited the places that represent our hometown like the Sunsphere, the City County Building and Ney-land Stadium. We took loads of pictures. We had fun! We got to know each other. And, along the way, we learned more about ourselves and our surroundings and im-proved our writing skills.

mountain air; singing songs around a camp-fire; making countless friendship bracelets. Sounds nice, right?

Believe me, it is. I was at The Mountain Retreat and Learning Center in Highlands, N.C., for two weeks.

My time at camp was extremely enjoyable. I participated in numer-ous workshops and eve-ning programs, which still left time for deli-cious food and breath-taking views.

By Ruth WhiteThe summer intern

program at the Shopper-News is seven weeks of fun-filled activities around town and eating at some newly discov-ered restaurants. It is always a thrill to be part of this program and cap-ture the smiles from the interns and staff mem-bers.

This year the group of 12 students and three Shopper staff members visited the Knoxville Zoo, Knox Area Rescue Ministries, Mayors Tim Burchett and Madeline Rogero, Sheriff Jimmy Jones, Concord Park Par 3 Golf Course, Beck Cul-tural Center, Neyland Stadium, WBIR, WIVK, M o x l e y - C a r m i c h a e l , KUB offices, Weigel’s of-fices, Farragut Folklife Museum and Ciderville.

We ate lunch at fun places including Lit-ton’s, Chandler’s, the Blue Plate Special at the Knoxville Welcome Cen-ter, Lulu’s Tea Room, Lakeside Tavern, Chesa-

peake’s and high above Knoxville inside the Icon Ultra Lounge at the Sunsphere.

Much of the program was planned, but some-times circumstances led to impromptu ad-ventures, such as riding the trolley on the UT campus or visiting art centers in Fountain City and Farragut. Whether planned or not, each Tuesday brought adven-tures, good food and a lot of chatter and laugh-ter from the group.

It’s too hard to pick a favorite place. They were all great and seemed to get better each week. I am truly sad to see the program end but look for-ward to seeing the interns when I visit schools dur-ing the upcoming year.

If you are interested in the Shopper News intern program for next year (rising 8th grade stu-dents), you can send me an email to [email protected] or stop me the next time I’m in your school.

By Zoe RisleyIf you’ve ever seen “The

Andy Griffith Show,” you must remember the bum-bling deputy of Mayberry, Barney Fife.

Last week the interns got to meet the closest to the real thing you’ll get in East Tennessee, Fife im-personator Sammy Saw-yer. He met the group at Ciderville music store just off Clinton Highway. We

were also treated to many hilarious stories about re-gional (if not national) leg-end Cas Walker.

It was a perfect example of those great moments where two generations come together for a good time. I found the experi-ence very enriching and would recommend stop-ping by Ciderville for a good story and some fi ne impromptu music.

Sittin’ a spellat Ciderville

tucky. Up there he bought a coon dog. Guess where it rode on the way back? Yes, across their laps.

Harbin talked about the personality of the store which has been open since 1958. “(If) you go to a lot of music stores, you’ll know this one’s unique,” she said.

West and his friends walked the interns next door to the barn where the walls are covered with more pic-tures of country music stars. A full stage is set up in front of dozens of folding chairs – each one signed by an artist who had performed there, including Kenny Chesney.

Harbin said a Friday night get-together happens weekly. Videos of the origi-nal Cas Walker show are shown on a large TV before musicians play live blue-grass and country music.

“It is a very family friend-ly show,” she said. Little kids are even invited to dance in front of the stage. Doors open at 6:30 p.m., movies are shown 7-8 p.m., and the music runs until 11 p.m. Info: 945-3595.

And who knows? The next star you see there may be named Jake Mabe.

My time as a Shopper intern

We will look back on the summer of 2013 with fond memories and will never for-get the experiences we had as interns with the Shopper. We are very thankful for the help we received from Ms. Sara, Ms. Sandra, Ms. Ruth and all the other chaperones from the Shopper. It was an awe-some experience!

We highly recommend this internship to anyone. Take the opportunity. You won’t regret it!

Jon Rysewyk: A culture of innovationBy Sandra Clark

We caught up for a phone interview with Dr. Jon Rysewyk, appointed last

week as executive di-rector of innovation and school improve-ment for Knox Coun-ty Schools.

OK. So what’s an executive director of innovation and school improve-ment? It sounds so pretentious that it’s

hard to even type it out.Rysewyk, though, is anything but

pretentious. And everyone we talked with gives him high marks and holds great hopes for his success with the new position.

It was created by staff realign-ment, Dr. Jim McIntyre is careful to point out, and is not an additional employee at the central offi ce. Ry-sewyk is a direct report to Assistant Superintendent Dr. Elizabeth Alves.

Praise from KincannonIndya Kincannon watched Ry-

sewyk’s work as principal at Fulton High School, starting in 2008.

“At Fulton JR went beyond just supporting teachers and students to giving them the means to become leaders themselves,” she wrote from vacation.

“He is somehow fi rm, but self-effac-ing, smart and patient enough to build and sustain true grassroots reform.

“He led FHS through a huge change in 2008, overcame fears and other obstacles. Then, once the ini-tial reforms were in place, he wasn’t afraid to modify in response to ev-er-changing needs of students and growing expertise of teachers.

“He’s a stand-up guy, good lis-tener, true advocate for kids. I think his single best quality is the way he brings out the best in all the people around him.”

Kincannon said Fulton is like an educational leadership machine these days, “and Jon’s leadership made that possible.” She mentioned Ryan Siebe, Katy Lutton, Jason Myers and Rob Speas as examples.

The jobMcIntyre says

Rysewyk will be responsible for magnet and gifted programs, STEM, Career and Tech-nical Education (CTE), instructional technology and personalized learn-ing, charter schools and any state des-ignated priority and focus schools.

Rysewyk says developing leader-ship is easy when you start with great raw material. “The principal’s most important job is selecting the best human capital,” he said.

“At Fulton (when he became prin-cipal) we had a complete restruc-ture,” he said. “We talked about vision, about resources and about

alignment. The power to change re-ally rests with those in day-to-day contact with the students.

“We wrote job descriptions for em-powerment with fair expectations for the faculty. There was a lot of diversity on our school leadership team, from new teachers to 20-year veterans.

“We had a contract (for profes-sional development) with Stanford, and we didn’t send the same fi ve peo-ple over and over.” By the contract’s end, a third of the Fulton faculty had received training.

Fulton High was aligned with four small learning communities within the school, based on the model also used at Hardin Valley Academy. That means a student taking the health sci-ences track, for example, would have core classes within that wing. Rather

than history teach-ers gathering to

discuss history, these teachers had common

planning time that was used to discuss kids.

Rysewyk reached out to the busi-ness community, collaborating with Tennova for health sciences. The team built on Fulton’s strength with a student-run radio station by creat-ing a school of communications and expanding it to include graphics de-sign, computer technology and busi-ness classes. Skilled professionals such as plumbers and electricians worked with other students. The pro-grams launched in 2008 are still at Fulton today, but the school has be-come a countywide magnet.

His excitement shines through when he talks of the new CTE high school in collaboration with Pellis-sippi State University at Strawberry Plains. And he says the program there should not weaken the ongoing programs at Fulton.

“It’s a different set of subjects,” he says, listing sustainable living, teach-er prep and homeland security as CTE tracks. “We’ll have lots of fresh programming along with a mega-lab of cyber technology.

“Knox County teachers will teach, but we will offer lots of opportunities for dual enrollment with Pellissippi, es-pecially in the junior and senior years.

“I’m excited about a lot of the pro-gramming, especially in math and science,” he said. “We’ve got some re-ally advanced concepts. It’s not your old voc/ed school.”

The school is open to all students, but enrollment may be limited initially.

The power of ‘tweaks’Change is scary, Rysewyk says, but

little tweaks are manageable. It became an inside joke at Fulton

that he would start a staff meeting by suggesting a tweak or two.

As the staff learned more, tweaks were necessary.

For instance, in testing freshmen in his fi rst year, Rysewyk discov-ered only 55 percent were on track to graduate from high school. After the freshman year, that number had ris-en to 88 percent, but after a semester in traditional classes for the sopho-more year, the number had dropped back to 77 percent.

“We didn’t rest on our fi rst year

success, and we didn’t wait until year’s end to makes changes,” he says.

The team chose to loop teachers for 9th and 10th graders so that kids had the same teacher for each subject each year.

“Relationships are important,” he says, “especially for these kids in these grades. By the end of the sopho-more year, if a kid has 15-16 credits, they have bought in. They’re on track to graduate.

“You have to start with the end in mind – constantly monitor outcomes and data. That’s how to breed a cul-ture of innovation and risk-taking.”

The manJon Rysewyk is an Army brat with

Knoxville as his fi rst permanent home. He came here to attend UT and has stayed for 17 years. He has two daughters, ages 7 and 10, both students at Shannondale Elementary School, and the family attends Fellow-ship Church on Middlebrook Pike.

He most recently served as su-pervisor of secondary education. He joined Knox County Schools in 2002 as a science teacher at Karns High School, after serving previously as a science teacher in the Roane County Schools. He was appointed as an as-sistant principal at Fulton in 2004 and as principal in 2008.

Rysewyk holds a bachelor’s degree in psychology and a master’s degree in education from the University of Tennessee. He also holds an educa-tional specialist degree from Ten-nessee Tech and a doctorate in edu-cational administration from East Tennessee State University.

Teresa Cooper’s preferred drive time get an extra-spe-cial treat when she shows up.

Cooper brings her crop of baked goodies to sweeten the harvest among all the healthy vegetables, fruits and other farm yields.

Bread, cakes, turnovers and cookies travel well, but to experience her choco-lates and candies you’ll have to catch her at her shop on Karen Lane just across Hwy. 33 from Red Gate.

Union Countians know her from her 20-year ca-reer as owner of Teresa’s Bakery, and before that, her children’s day care center, Teresa’s Tiny Tots in May-nardville.

Her Union County roots go deeper yet, as she is the daughter of Joe Day, prin-cipal of Horace Maynard High School from 1976 until his death in 1985.

Teresa and her husband, Mike Cooper, who’s worked at Big Ridge State Park al-most 40 years, have three grown kids, Brittney, Blair and Brian, and two grand-sons, Jacob and Michael.

Custom cakes are just one of Teresa’s Bakery special-ties. There are 400 shapes to choose from, something for every occasion.

“The favorite, though, is the pie. My homemade chocolate and coconut pies have always been very pop-ular,” says Cooper.

“The bread is something I’ve started making recently.

A sweet interludeFarmers Market opens Wednesdays, Saturdays

Farmers Market, open Saturdays in July, 8:30 to 11:30 in front of Union County High School. Expected produce: broccoli, cabbage, collards, hot peppers, new potatoes, kale, onions, blueberries, blackberrys, beans, beets, cumbers, garlic, summer and zuc-chini squash,tomatoes, turnips. Also, nursery products, certifi ed Tennessee beef, bakery goods and home-craft-ed items such as soap.

Farmers with a single crop item are in-vited to set up, even for just one day. Questions answered at 992-8038.

2nd Market Day, Wednesdays in July and maybe August. Farmers Market will be at the UT Extension Offi ce, 3925 May-nardville Hwy from 4-6 p.m. Produce is expected to be about the same as Saturdays. Single crop items are welcome.

Saturday’s Market will continue as usual 8:30 to 11:30 a.m.

Corn Fest, Satur-day, July 27. Children’s treasure hunt and more. 8:30 to 11:30 a.m.

Teresa Cooper with a few of her creations: (clockwise from left)

fl uff y turnovers; rodeo-themed cookies; a huge loaf of bread;

a watering can with candy fl owers; a chocolate toolbox with

tools to go in it; a baby shoe with candies; a chocolate sewing

kit with tiny “spools of thread” and tools; and SpongeBob, Elmo

and UT cookies. Above her are a few of her hundreds of shaped

cake pans.

It’s a good seller at the mar-kets. I make white, wheat and cinnamon raisin.”

Teresa’s Bakery is open 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. weekdays, unless it’s one of her mar-ket days where you’ll fi nd her at Norris on a Monday afternoon, New Harvest on Thursday, or the Wednes-days in July Maynardville market.

Tammy Rouse, executive director of the Union Coun-ty Humane Society, has sent a request for support this summer.

“We need your help,” she wrote.

“The summer months are the toughest for us fi -nancially and operationally. Contributions are down

because of vacations, gar-dening and other summer activities.

“We fi nd increased num-bers of animals coming through our doors with the need for more vaccines, food, deworming medica-tion and staff hours to care for the animals.”

By Rob WebbSummer is in full swing in East Tennes-

see and that means long, hot and humid days. July and August are the hottest months of the year, and Rural/Metro is urging the community to keep heat safety in mind and to limit time spent in the sun.

The most serious of heat-related illnesses is heat stroke, which occurs

when the body is unable to control its temperature. When heat is excessive, body temperature rises rapidly and is unable to cool down on its own. In some serious cases, temperatures rise to 106 degrees or higher within 10-15 minutes. This can lead to permanent disability or even death if emergency treatment is not provided.

On average, more than 675 people die from complications related to extreme heat each year in the United States. While everyone is at risk for heat stroke, the most susceptible groups are senior citizens and young children.

The elderly do they not adjust as well to sudden changes in temperature and are more likely to take prescription medicine that impairs the body’s ability to regulate temperature.

Parents should be mindful about their children’s prolonged exposure to summer heat. Leaving young ones in parked cars is a life-threatening danger during these hot months – even if the window is open. This

year, 21 child vehicular stroke deaths have already been reported in the United States and, on average, 38 occur per year. Never leave your child in a parked care for any length of time.

Warning signs of heat stroke vary but may include:

■ Extremely high temperature – above 103 degrees

■ Red, hot and dry skin with no sweat-ing

■ Rapid, strong pulse or throbbing headache

■ Dizziness and light-headedness ■ Nausea and vomiting ■ Confusion or irrational behavior

If you see or experience any of these symptoms, you may be dealing with heat stroke. Promptly call 9-1-1. Attempt to cool the patient down by taking him or her into a shady, air-conditioned area and decrease body temperature with cold water or any means possible. It may seem counter intui-tive, but do not give the patient any fl uids to drink. Be sure to monitor the patient’s body temperature until emergency services arrive.

To prevent heat stroke and other heat-related incidents this summer, follow these steps to stay safe in the heat:

■ Wear loose-fi tting, light-weight cloth-ing.

■ Rest frequently when outside and seek shade when possible.

■ Avoid exercise or strenuous physical activity.

■ Drink plenty of fl uids every day.

Stay safe in summer heat

FORT SANDERSCENTER FORDIGESTIVE HEALTH (865) 541-4280

The outpatient Fort Sanders Center for Di-

gestive Health is designed to maximize pa-

tient comfort and convenience.

Experience Fort Sanders Center for Digestive HealthGetting tested for digestive dis-

orders may not be fun in anyone’s book, but at the Fort Sanders Cen-ter for Digestive Health, these pro-cedures are as quick, comfortable and painless as possible.

The Fort Sanders Center for Di-gestive Health is now open at 1819 Clinch Ave. in Knoxville. Adjacent to Fort Sanders Regional Medical Center, the beautiful 6,000-square-foot outpatient Center is equipped with state-of-the-art technology to diagnose and treat a wide range of digestive disorders.

The Center for Digestive Health specializes in gastrointestinal and colon cancer screenings. The facil-ity is all digital, with high defi ni-tion, wider fi eld of vision scopes that make diagnosis quicker and more accurate.

“The HD images are so much crisper and allow us to visual-ize details in the colon better and see lesions more clearly,” explains gastroenterologist Dr. Robert Pol-lack. “It’s like the difference be-tween analog and high-def TV – it makes a huge impact.”

In addition to the technology, patients and families also enjoy the Center’s spacious waiting room with beautiful mountain views. And the whole layout is de-signed with effi ciency and comfort in mind.

“There’s a huge improvement in effi ciency and fl ow,” says Center manager Kelly Rogers, RN. “It’s one-stop shopping for patients and their families. Everything is

Everyone has occasional heartburn, bloating, diarrhea or constipation. But when those symptoms persist, they may be signs of signifi cant digestive disease. Digestive diseases affect an estimated 70 million people in the United States each year, according to the National Institutes of Health.

Two digestive diseases that are common in the United States are colon cancer and GERD, gastroesophageal refl ux disease.

“These two are among the most important to screen patients for,” says Fort Sanders gastroenterologist Dr. Muhammed Iqbal.

Colon Cancer – screening is critical Although it’s declining, colon

cancer is still the second leading cause of cancer deaths in the United States. “Colon cancer deaths have decreased because there is effective screening and better treatments,” Dr. Iqbal explains.

The gold standard for screening for colon cancer is a colonoscopy, a simple procedure that allows a phy-sician to see inside a patient’s co-lon and rectum. The test is offered at the new Fort Sanders Center for

Digestive Health located on Clinch Avenue in Knoxville.

While the patient is under mild sedation, the physician inserts a thin, flexible, lighted tube into the rectum and colon. The tube uses air to temporarily inflate the colon, while the camera relays an image to a nearby computer screen.

If there are any precancerous le-sions called polyps in the intestine, they can be removed during the test. “Precancerous polyps can be com-

pletely and safely removed duringcolonoscopy, therefore preventingcancer,” says Dr. Iqbal. “Colonos-copy saves lives.”

Colonoscopy screening is recom-mended for everyone at age 50, andevery 10 years after that if the test isnormal. For people with family his-tory of colon cancer, or patients whohave had cancer themselves, earlierand more frequent screening is rec-ommended.

GERD – There IS reliefThe second most common

digestive test is GERD screening. “GERD is gastroesophageal reflux disease,” says Dr. Iqbal. “It’s when the stomach contents back up into esophagus.”

GERD doesn’t usually indicate a problem if it only occurs occasionally. “But if it’s persistent, if you have difficulty swallowing or if you have weight loss, it needs to be evaluated,” advises Dr. Iqbal.

GERD can sometimes be a symptom of other conditions such as asthma, esophageal cancer

or a precancerous condition called Barrett’s esophagus. Men, especially Caucasian men, develop Barrett’s esophagus more often than other groups. This is when acid from the stomach backs up into the esophagus, causing damage.

Testing for GERD is done with an endoscope, a thin, flexible tube inserted down the mouth while the patient is under sedation. The tube has a small camera on it, giving the physician a view of the esophagus on a computer screen.

Iqbal said any recurring

heartburn, belly pain, bloody stools or black stools and unexplained weight loss should be evaluated by a physician.

“These are common problems that can often be treated very easily and effectively,” states Dr. Iqbal.

For more information about

the diagnosis and treatment of

gastrointestinal disease, contact the

Fort Sanders Center for Digestive

Health at 865-541-4280

or go to www.fsregional.com/gi.

Colonoscopy guidelinesThe Centers for Disease Control and Prevention

recommends colonoscopy screening every 10 years, beginning at age 50 through age 75, as a way to prevent colorectal cancer.

People at higher risk of developing colorectal cancer should begin screening at a younger age and be screened more frequently. Check with your physician about when to have a colonoscopy if you have a family history of colorectal disease.

to patients having bronchosco-pies.

“The staff and physicians areexcited for people to experience the expanded GI facilities at Fort Sanders Regional,” says FortSanders gastroenterologist Dr.Jeffrey Brown. “The upgrades andupdates have enhanced the experi-ence for patients.”

“It’s a giant step forward,” agrees Dr. Pollack. “Patients will still have the same excellent GIcare they’ve always received atFort Sanders, but now it will be atotally new experience.”

conveniently located together in one spot.”

The Center for Digestive Health includes three GI procedure rooms, as well as an eight-bay preprocedure area and six-bay recovery suite. “And when a procedure is complete, physicians meet with families in one of our private conference rooms,” says Rogers.

After testing, patients go home

the same day. Parking is easy with available valet parking or garage parking with direct elevator access to the Center.

The previous Fort Sanders En-doscopy Lab, located inside Fort Sanders Regional, remains open, but will now focus on high risk gastrointestinal inpatient and outpatient procedures. The lab will continue to provide service

The time is meow!Just look at these gorgeous kittens. Photos by Carol Zinavage

By Carol ZinavageHere’s the good news: in-

take and euthanasia rates at Young-Williams Animal Center have been trending down ever so slightly for the past few years.

The bad news is that those falling rates have mostly to do with dogs, and Young-Williams is currently overrun with cats and kit-tens. Since the fi rst of July, they’ve taken in 347 of them. It’s summer, and felines are reproducing like crazy.

“With kittens and cats,” says Amy Johnston, “we’re

Many adorable faces await you at Young-Williams Animal Center.

not making as big a dent.”Johnston, volunteer coor-

dinator and director of out-reach for Young-Williams, attributes the good news to the center’s spay/neuter ini-

tiative, begun in 2007. But, she says, much more aware-ness and action is needed.

“We can’t adopt our way out of this mess. Spay/neu-ter is the only way.”

The statistics are mind-blowing. An unspayed fe-male cat, her mate and their offspring can produce 66,088 kittens in six years. The most humane solution is spay/neuter.

Spay/neutered animals live longer, healthier lives. Behavioral problems are reduced or eliminated, and the animals are calmer, happier and more affection-ate toward their owners.

If you want to do the right thing by spay/neutering your pet or a stray, Young-Williams Animal Center can help in every possible way.

“Call us,” Johnston pleads. “If you’re feeding a stray cat and her kittens, it’s the best thing you can do for them. If you don’t have enough money to do so, we can help.”

In addition to providing guidance for such services, the animal center also has a pet retention program.

“The shelter is your last

resort,” Johnston stresses. “We are committed to help-ing families keep the pets they have.”

There’s a pet pantry which offers pet food to qualifying families, and the Young-Wil-liams website provides a link to the ASPCA’s chat line for behavioral issues.

Johnson reiterates, “We’ll do anything – any-thing at all – to help.”

Right now the Young-Williams cats need homes, and I’m here to tell you that cats make wonderful pets. All my pets – four cats and one dog – are shelter ani-mals, and my two cats from Young-Williams are the best I’ve ever had.

There are several reasons for this. Young-Williams puts each animal through a screening process to make sure it has the potential to make a good pet. First be-havioral, then medical as-sessments are made.

The next step is encourag-ing human-animal bonding. Young-Williams has an ex-traordinary network of foster families and volunteers who give each animal individual attention and care. They’re the ones who teach the shel-ter pets to love us humans.

And love us they do. How sweet it is to be greeted at the door after a long hard day by a beautiful creature that soft-ly pads up to you and nuzzles

your leg. Who makes you laugh until you cry at her an-tics, and nestles in the crook of your back while you nap.

Cynics will say, “They act that way because they know you’ll give them food.”

So? Who cares? Besides, my cats can get at their food 24 hours a day; they don’t have to go the extra mile. Yet they do, every single day.

Cats are clean and low maintenance. Unlike dogs, you can leave them alone for extended periods of time during the day. A sunny windowsill will keep them happy for hours.

And as far as being a cat person or a dog person, well, you may be one or the other, but Amy Johnston concurs that it’s possible to be both.

Right now adoption fees for cats and kittens are drastically reduced. Prices that normally start at $150 are now at $50 for a kitten, $25 for a cat, and $10 for a senior cat. And what a bar-gain those prices are! They include spay/neutering, mi-crochipping, vaccines and a combo medical test.

How about adopting a small companion who will give you much joy? Won’t you consider saving a life?
