also disrupted telephone and

County Commission
Billy Campau, they approved
a budget amendment in the
amount of $2,309 for the
Fentress Co. Office of
Emergency
Management
Agency
and
Homeland
Security to allow the agency to
receive a reimbursement from
FEMA and TEMA for severe
weather damage and clean-up
service provided by the units
for February 2008.
The grant was distributed
equally among fire Units 1, 8,
6, 9, and Emergency Management, with each receiving a
total of $461.80.
On a motion by Joe Stewart,
seconded by Gene Allen
Roysden, they then approved
solid waste amendments of
$435 and $82,000 in local
matching funds for a $250,000
Appalachian Regional Commission Grant to purchase a
roll-off truck and a front
loader truck.
Jimmy Allen of Rural
Development addressed the
Commission concerning an
issue which might have to be
addressed concerning the sale
of the former Park Shirt
Company building, which had
been constructed through a
Rural Development Business
Enterprise Grant.
It was
pointed out that there was a
stipulation in the grant
agreement that if the building
was sold, that the county might
have to pay back the money,
based on the fair market value
of the building.
County Executive John B.
Mullinix explained that in 1996
the county built the “spec”
building shell, and later
finished the building for
manufacturing
with
the
assistance
of
a
Rural
Development grant.
The
county later entered into a
lease-purchase agreement with
Leaventhal, and the company
exercised their option to
purchase the building early last
year. Since Rural Development money was used, the
building could not be sold
without that money being
repaid.
Mullinix further stated that
since the money derived from
the sale of the building had
gone into another economic
development project, a water
line expansion, the money
might not have to be rapaid,
and he would be working with
the
County
Attorney,
Industrial Board, and Rural
Development to try to resolve
this issue.
Rick DeLaney with Morgan
Keegan & Company then
addressed the commission
concerning a request by the
Fentress County Board of
Education to refinance the Pine
Haven School bonds, which
would result in savings of over
$100,000
through
2015.
Following a brief discussion,
Michael Cross made a motion,
seconded by Floyd Stephens, to
approve
the
resolution
authorizing this action, with all
present voting vot.
Next,
the
commission
approved a motion by Pile,
seconded by Bilbrey, to enter
into a lease agreement with
Twin
Lakes
Telephone
Cooperative to locate a
switching at the Mt. Helen fire
department
to allow for
upgrade of their fiber optics
and DSL service in that area of
the county.
They then approved a request
for the General Sessions Court
to charge a fee of $2.00 for
computer access to help pay for
computer equipment improvements to computer equipment,
training,
programs,
and
maintenance.
Fentress Co. Ambulance
Service Director Gary Peters
then
addressed
the
commission,
asking
for
permission to apply for a
United States Department of
Agriculture, Rural Development grant of $400,000, which
would be used to purchase
three ambulance/emergency
service vehicles. He said that
the way the grant was
structured, it was like buying 2
and getting one free. On a
motion by Bilbrey, seconded by
Stewart, this was approved.
On a motion by Michael
Cross, seconded by Roysden,
they approved a request by
Sheriff Chucky Cravens to
declare four vehicles; a 1994
Dodge van, two 2003 Dodge
Intrepid cars, and a 1999 Ford
Crown Victoria car.
No action was taken on the
appointment of members to
the Planning Commission from
the second and fourth districts,
as there was some disagreement
as to whose authority this came
under.
Commissioner Bilbrey said
that in the past, the
commissioners from the district
would make recommendations.
Executive John Mullinix said
that according to law, the
county executive made the
appointment, subject to the
approval of the commission.
County
Attorney
Tom
Coleman
then
presented
information which showed that
Fentress County had collected
more than $141,300 in
delinquent taxes since July 1,
2008, and that they were
working on another delinquent
tax property sale in the near
future.
Commissioner Bob Pile then
reported that the Doubletop
Fire Department had received
$23,000 from the insurance
company to cover the cost of
the fire truck that was wrecked
last year, and that they were
looking to buy a replacement
truck for $30,000. They have
some surplus equipment that
they plan to sell to make up the
difference,
thereby
not
requiring any additional funds
or budget amendments.
With no other action to come
before the commission, the
meeting recessed at 8:00 p.m.

A special award was then
presented to Dr. Gerald

and
Sandy
Conatser in honor of the PreK Inclusion program being
recognized as one of the best in
Tennessee.
The Clarkrange CrossCountry Team was recognized
for placing second in the region
and competing in the state, and
the Clarkrange FFA team was
recognized for placing second
in the state in the Agri-Science
Bowl.
Next, the item which took up
a good portion of the work
session earlier in the evening
involved the school calendar
for 2009-10. Following some
discussion, Philip Hall made a
motion to have registration on
August 12, with the first full
day of school to be August 17;
change the fall break from a
full week to two days -October 15-16; have school on
Veterans Day, Martin Luther
King Day, and President’s Day,
with appropriate programs to
be held on each of those days;
leave the spring break at a full
week, but give the board the
option to use the first days of
the spring break if needed for
snow days. Under the new
proposal,
schools
would
dismiss on May 26th. The
motion also stipulated that
August 14 would be designated
as Fair Day.
Hall’s motion was then
seconded by Karen Cooper
and passed without opposition.
Under “Monetary” items,
the board authorized Director
of Schools Mike Jones to enter
into an agreement to replace
one school bus and issue a
letter of intent to purchase
three additional buses before
next school year.
On a motion by Russ
Stephens, seconded by Frankie
Campbell, the board voted to
Authorize the Fentress County
Commission to refinance the
Pine Haven School Bond at a
lower rate, which would result
in savings of more than
$100,000 over the final 6 years
of the bond issue.
Next, the board authorized
line-item budget transfers for
the
IDEA
and
Pre-K
programs, along with a general
purpose budget amendment.
They
then
authorized
Director Jones to advertise for
bids for mowing of the schools
for the summer months, and
extend the current mowing bid
until the new bids were received
and accepted.
They next approved a special
education and a regular
education contract, as well as a
special education training
presenter contract.
Board member BarbarA Pile
Was then appointed to serve on
the
Sick
Leave
Bank
Committee.
Director Jones was then
authorized to obtain a legal
opinion to relieve the board of
all liability in connection with
the Pine Haven Community
Center, which is using a portion
of the old Pine Haven School.
Director Jones explained that

they were not advocating that
the portion of the building not
be used for the community
center, but to protect the board
from liability.
After setting the next meeting
for Tuesday, March 31, with a
work session to begin at 5:30
p.m., with the meeting to
follow, the session adjourned at
8:20 p.m.
Earlier in the work session,
Director Jones commended the
staff and school employees for
being frugal with the budget
and helping save money. “We
thought we might have to dip
into our fund balance, but it
appears now that we’re not
going to have to do that.”
Fentress
Co.
Finance
Director Joyce Crabtree also
expressed her appreciation to
the board, stating:
“I
appreciate the interest everyone
has taken to save money. While
our revenue is down, the board
has saved enough to not have
to get into the fund balance.”
Former Governors Host Reception April 6th at State Museum.
Political Pioneer Anna Belle
Clement O’Brien Honored as
Humanitarian Leader
Senator Anna Belle Clement
O’Brien, known to many as the
First Lady of Tennessee
Politics, will receive the
distinguished
2009
Humanitarian
Leadership
Award next month in Nashville.
U.S. Senator and former
governor Lamar Alexander,
along with former governor
Ned Ray McWherter, will host
a reception in Senator O’Brien’s
honor the evening of April 6th
at the Tennessee State Museum.
Governor Bredesen, Senator
Lamar
Alexander,
and
Governor McWherter plan to
attend.
Current and former members
of the General Assembly,
members of the Tennessee
Congressional Delegation, and
hundreds of supporters and
friends of Sen. O’Brien are also
invited. The reception, $100 per
ticket, is open to the public with
all proceeds to benefit the
Clement
Railroad
Hotel
Museum
in
Dickson,
Tennessee.
Since 1950, Anna Belle
Clement O’Brien has wielded
political power and used it for
good—first with two governors,
and later as a member of the
General Assembly. Although
Senator O’Brien was not the
first woman elected to the
Tennessee General Assembly,
she was the first woman to serve
as a Committee Chairwoman.
Among
her
many
accomplishments,
Senator
O’Brien was a fierce patient
advocate. She changed laws
that forced medical insurance
companies
to
cover
mammograms for women, an
early
cancer
detection
procedure that saves thousands
of
lives
each
year.
Furthermore, Senator O’Brien
was a champion for patient
rights, helping pass the law that
empowered patients to control
their terminal care through a
living will. In the Senate, she
chaired the Transportation and
Education committees, the
Democratic Caucus, and helped
pass significant education
reforms under then Governor
Lamar Alexander.
“Anna Belle Clement O’Brien
was and is one of Tennessee's
most effective politicians. More
than that, she knows how to
work across party lines to make
this a better state. Her decisive
vote and leadership helped
enact the Better Schools
program creating Centers and
Chairs of Excellence, Master
Teachers and Governor's
schools. Even more than all
that, she has been an absolute
delight to know and work
with.” -- Senator Lamar
Alexander.
Former U.S. Congressman
Bob Clement, who serves as
chairman for the Clement
Museum says Senator O’Brien
is a wonderful example of the
type of leader the museum will
honor each year recognizing
courage,
leadership
and
outstanding
humanitarian
service.
“My aunt Anna Belle always
says politics is a beautiful word,
because politics builds roads,
politics builds schools, and
politics builds communities.
She, like my father, was not
afraid to take on controversial
issues if she felt it helped give
people more equal treatment.
She showed political courage in
working through un-chartered
territory such as medical
benefits and patients’ rights,”—
Bob Clement.
With a career spanning a halfcentury, Senator O’Brien was
able to serve key roles with four
governors before retiring:
Frank Goad Clement, Buford
Ellington,
Ned
Ray
McWherter,
and
Lamar
Alexander.
Former
Governor
McWherter praised Senator
O’Brien for her keen interest in
educating children.
“Miss Anna Belle was for
many programs but her love of
children always rang through as
one of the loudest.” – Governor
Ned Ray McWherter
Senator O’Brien says she is
extremely proud to receive the
prestigious 2009 Humanitarian
Leadership Award. She is
especially proud, though, for
the opportunity to help raise
money for the Clement
Railroad Hotel Museum which
will honor her brother, Frank
Clement, who is the original
inspiration for the award.
The Governor Frank G.
Clement
Railroad
Hotel
Museum,
a
downtown
landmark
in
Dickson,
Tennessee,
will
educate
hundreds of visitors each year
with its fascinating look at the
leaders, citizens, railroads, war,
industry, and innovation that

News From Ken Yager
State Senate Approves Legislation Calling For Safe
Storage Of Coal Fly Ash Yager co-sponsors bill
(NASHVILLE, TN), March
16, 2009 -- The full Senate
voted 33 to 0 recently to
approve legislation sponsored
by Senator Tim Burchett (R-
Knoxville), Senator Ken Yager
(R-Harriman) and Rep. Joe
McCord (R-Maryville) that
would prohibit the issuance of
permits for the storage of coal
fly ash in landfills unless they
contain a liner for protection of
groundwater and are capped
properly. The bill, SB 1559,
requires the state’s Department
of
Conservation
and
Environment (TDEC) to only
issue a permit or request for
expansion of an existing landfill
if it meets those requirements
for the storage of the coal byproduct.
“There are a lot of unknowns
about the long term effects of
coal fly ash” said Senator Yager,
who represents Roane County,
the site of a massive coal ash
spill on December 22, 2008.
“The long term effect on the
public health from fly ash
leacheate and airborne particles
is unknown. It is imperative
that we take these precautions
to protect our community's
health. This legislation would
give TDEC the tools they need
to make sure that it is stored
properly in the future.”
The Roane County coal ash
spill released more than 5.4
million cubic yards of ash into
the river from an on-site
lagoon, also referred to as a
holding pond, at the Kingston
Fossil Plant. Fly ash is a fine,
glass-like powder recovered
from gases created by coal-fired
electric power generation. The
ash contains arsenic, which
means it must be treated as a
“hazardous substance” as it is
moved from the Kingston site
to a landfill. Engineers are
working to prepare the
comprehensive plan to remove
the sludge from the Kingston
spill, which is expected to cost
TVA between $525 to $825
million.
“We have to look at what we
can learn from this incident to
prevent a future accident from
occurring and this bill is a huge
first step.”
The bill is pending action in
the
State
Government
Subcommittee in the House of
Representatives.

Honda employees gather for the presentation of the company’s
contribution of $3,300 to the UCHRA Senior Meals Program.
Pictured front row from left to right, are Steve Cooper, General
Manager of Cookeville Honda, Kay Walker, UCHRA Putnam

Director of UCHRA, and Linda Tramel, Field Services and

Honda Of Cookeville
Provides Support For Meals
Contributions made by the
employees
of
Cookeville
Honda and Jeff Cappo with
Victory Automotive Group
translate into more meals being
provided by the Upper
Cumberland Human Resource
Agencies Nutrition Program for
the Elderly and Other Adults
with Disabilities. “When the
Cookeville
Honda
staff
discussed
a
charitable
organization to help, the Upper
Cumberland Human Resource
Fentress County Historical Society
Promotes History & Genealogy
The
Fentress
County
Historical Society exists for the
purpose of preserving all kinds
of
historical information
related to Fentress County,
Tennessee. This includes, but is
not limited to, the collection,
arranging, and storing of such
information, and making the
information available to the
public as appropriate.
In
addition, the Society is
interested
in
collecting,
arranging,
storing
and
publishing
documents,
newsletters, phamphlets and
books on genealogy and family
history.
The Historical Society works
with county leadership to help
archive important documents,
private papers, newspapers, and
county records so as to preserve
the historical nature and value
of these items. Volunteers
contribute many hours to
preparing the above mentioned
records, documents and papers
for the Archives.
In addition, the Society
supports the efforts of the
Chamber of Commerce to
develop and maintain a
museum
where
artifacts,
memorabilia, and other media
are used to tell the story of
Fentress County--her history
and culture, her geography and
natural resources, her business
and industry, her natural
beauty and varied landscape,
and her religion and social life.
The
Historical
Society
produces a newsletter once
each quarter in order to
provide
historical
and
genealogical information and
to
be
a
forum
for
communication with those who
desire to learn more about our
county history, and about their
own genealogy and family
information and that of other
early settlers.
The Society sponsors an
annual History Week and
Roundup in April of each year.
A theme is chosen for the
Roundup, and informative and
interesting displays are set up
for participants to view and
learn about various aspects of
the chosen theme. Books about
local and county history and
genealogy are available for sale,
and a computer database
containing over 225,000 names
of persons who have lived in or
had relatives who have lived in
Fentress County is available on
site with someone to help you
find that long sought-after 4th
great grandfather.
Snacks,
drinks and lunch are provided
free.
A monthly meeting is held in
the
Fentress
County
Courthouse
each
fourth
Wednesday at 12:45 p.m. Any
one may attend the meetings,
and
an
invitation
to
membership is open at all
times. For information, write
to Fentress County Historical
Society, P.O. Box 1431,
Jamestown, TN 38556 or call
931-879-7622.
The present officers of the
Society are:
Willie Beaty,
President; Kathy Williams, Vice
President; Lorene Cargile,
Treasurer, and Cheri Stephens,
Secretary. Directors include
Myra Smith, Bruce York and
Frances Hurd.
Agency was a natural choice.
The Agency provides quality
services to individuals needing
help and the meals program
was chosen because of the
assistance it provides to frail,
vulnerable individuals making
it possible for them to continue
living at home. Cookeville
Honda has many wonderful
customers from the Upper
Cumberland counties and the
employees chose the Human
Resource Agency, which serves
individuals in the 14 county
area,” stated Steve Cooper,
General Manager, Cookeville
Honda.
With the current economic
conditions, the increasing cost
incurred by the meals program,
and the increasing number of
individuals in need of the meals
due to physical conditions
and/or lack of financial
resources to eat properly, the
meals program has more
demand than has ever been
experienced.
“The Human
Resource Agency would like to
express
appreciation
to
Cookeville Honda for providing
much needed assistance in the
amount of $3300 to the Upper
Cumberland
Nutrition
Program; the program has
faced difficulty in meeting the
demands of individuals needing
meals due to lack of budget
increases,”
stated
Phyllis
Bennett, Executive Director,
Upper Cumberland Human
Resource Agency.
As a result of the gratitude of
the employees of Cookeville
Honda, the Upper Cumberland
Human Resource Agency’s
Nutrition Program will be able
to serve meals to additional
individuals. This contribution
is an example of businesses in
the
community
assisting
individuals in need and
expressing appreciation of
customers in the Upper
Cumberland.

Hello everyone and hello
spring. Doesn't spring come
back this week? I sure have
missed it. I have a few flowers
blooming and I just love it
when everything starts greening
out and blooming.
I indulged in something that
I shouldn't have today. Our
Sunday School class had a pot
luck lunch after church. There
were a lot of chicken dishes and
they were delicious. But my
favorite was the almond joy
cake. It was sinful and rich. I
just ate too much. Then I came

Today's recipes are apple.

good for you and these are
healthy recipes.
Ginger Apple Crisp
Apple filling:
6 baking apples, peeled, cored
and thinly sliced
1/4 cup sugar
2 teaspoon lemon juice
1 tablespoon cinnamon
1 teaspoon ground ginger
2 tablespoon cornstarch
Crisp Topping:
3 lowfat apple cereal bars
1/2 graham crumbs
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1/2 tablespoon cinnamon
Allardt FCE Club
Met March 11th
Combine all ingredients for
apple filling in a large bowl and
mix well. Preheat oven to 350
degrees. Place apple filling in
square baking dish. Place all
ingredients for crisp topping in
food processor or blender.
Pulse until consistency is that
of coarse crumbs. Sprinkle the
crumb mixture over the top of
the apples. Cover the dish and
bake for 45 minutes until apples
are tender and bubbly.
This is like a crustless pie
with apples, spices and ricotta
cheese.

Stay away from

Fairness Doctrine
Comeback Is A
Political Ruse
opposes any action to revive
the “Fairness Doctrine.”
The bottom line is that the
FCC abandoned the “Fairness
Doctrine” over twenty years
ago, and there is no evidence
that would lead one to believe
that there is any danger of it
making a return. However,
ideological partisans continue
to use this issue as a divisive
instrument for political gain.
Just last month, our economy
shed another 650,000 jobs.
Tennessee
families
are
struggling harder than ever to
make ends meet, and as we face
the challenges of economic
troubles and foreign enemies
we do not have time for the sort
of political posturing that talk
of the “Fairness Doctrine”
represents. There are plenty of
problems to solve and battles to
fight without taking up an issue
that will never see the light of
day. I can only hope that my
colleagues will take this to
heart as we continue our work
to move America forward.

Recently, I have read a
number of articles and press
releases on the subject of the
“Fairness Doctrine,” a longabandoned policy of the
Federal
Communications
Commission
(FCC)
that
required radio stations to
promote diverse viewpoints
and, essentially, force them to
provide differing sides in their
reporting. This policy was a
threat to journalists, station
managers and others who
believed it was a violation of
their free speech. I agree with
that assessment and oppose a
reinstatement of the Fairness
Doctrine. Today, the policy still
sits on the shelf, as it has since
1987 when it was discontinued.
While I am pleased that the
“Fairness Doctrine” is not in
use, I am nevertheless disturbed
by political partisans who are
attempting to use this longdecided debate to create a
wedge issue and further divide
America. There are just a
handful of legislators who
would re-instate the “Fairness
Doctrine. Additionally, Fox
News reported on February 18,
2009, that the President himself

Jim’s Gems
By: Jim Rogers
“Let us press on to maturity,”
urged the Hebrew writer
(Hebrews 6:1).
There is no necessary
connection between physical
and spiritual maturity. Old
folks who are spiritual babies
are pitiful but also dangerous.
Age doesn’t matter unless
you are a cheese; and those who
put us out to pasture because
of our age are Limburgers.
I meant to grow old; I just
didn’t intend for it to happen so
soon. I’m quite concerned that
my spiritual maturity has failed
to keep pace.
Those desiring to grow up
spiritually can receive divine
help. It has been said, “If you
have the Spirit without the
Word, you blow up. If you
have the Word without the
Spirit, you dry up. If you have
both the Word and the Spirit,
you grow up.”
Aging wisely doesn’t just
happen. A. Roger Merrill tells
of a business consultant who
decided to landscape his
grounds. He hired a woman
with a doctorate in horticulture
who was very knowledgeable.
Because
the
business
consultant was busy and
traveled much, he kept
emphasizing to her the need to
create his garden in a way that
would require little or no
maintenance on his part. He
insisted
on
automatic
sprinklers and other laborsaving devices.
Finally she stopped and said,
“There’s one thing you need to
deal with before we go any
further. If there’s no gardener,
there’s no garden!”
Some of us want to grow a
garden of spiritual virtue
without
devoting
time,
attention and care to it, and it
cannot happen. That is why so
many of us are more like the
mushroom that grows up over
night than like the mighty oak.
Could that church you attend
be called “First Mushroom
Church”?
If people in church dressed to
represent their level of
maturity, there would be more
bibs than aprons. You know
who those in bibs are. Those
donning aprons are those who
serve others. Which are you?
There has always been a gap
between young people and
older folks, particularly in
spiritual matters. It has turned
into a canyon.
I just read about a young
Talmud student who, after
many years in America, had
returned to Israel to visit the
family.
“But --- where is your beard?”
asks his mother upon seeing
him.
“Mama,” he replies, “in
America nobody wears a
beard.”
“But at least you keep the
Sabbath?” Mama asks
“Mama, business is business.
In America, everybody works
on the Sabbath.”
“But kosher food you still
eat?” asks Mama.
“Mama, in America, it is very
difficult to keep kosher.”
The old lady ponders this
information and then leans
over and whispers in his ear,
“Isaac, tell me, are you still
circumcised?”
I challenge you to pray and
study the Word that you may
grow up in our Living Lord.

Prescribed Fire To Occur
In Big South Fork NRRA
Big South Fork is planning to
ignite two prescribed fires the
week of March 16, depending
upon weather conditions. The
Gobblers Knob A&C Project is
located east of Divide Road
near the Tennessee/Kentucky
state line and will consist of
approximately 2485 acres,
roughly half in Kentucky and
half in Tennessee.
The
Gobblers Knob B Project is
located east of Divide Road
and north of Terry Cemetery
Road.
This project is
approximately 3334 acres and is
located entirely in Tennessee.
Each burn is scheduled to begin
late morning with the burn
being completed by nightfall.
These prescribed fires will
serve to reduce hazardous fuels
near Pickett State Forest and
the Daniel Boone National
Forest and help to promote
species diversity for the park
flora and fauna. After the
burns take place these areas
will have enhanced wildlife
habitat and should be an
excellent location for spring
turkey hunting.
During a prescribed burn all
roads and trails in the burn
area will be temporarily closed

IRS Announces Changes
To Withholding Tables
Submitted by H&R Block
As you may be aware, the
IRS has announced changes to
the withholding tables that
reflect the benefits of the
Making Work Pay Credit
(MWPC). Employers are being
encouraged to begin using the
new tables as soon as possible,
but not later than April 1.
Because the withholding
tables cannot take into account
ineligible taxpayers, workers
with multiple jobs, or dual
income married couples, the
reduced withholding may
actually exceed the credit that
you’ll be able to claim when
you file your tax return. As a
result, a married couple could
EACH
have
$800
less
withholding during the rest of
the year ($1,600 combined).
Their maximum credit on the
2009 return will only be $800.
A single taxpayer, who has two
jobs, could have $400 less
withholding from EACH job
for a total of $800 in less
withholding. His maximum
credit on the 2009 return will
only be $400. Each case results
in a lower refund, which could
turn the taxpayer’s situation
into a balance due.
Remember, too, that not all
workers qualify for the MWPC.
Nonresident aliens, individuals
who are a dependent of
another
taxpayer,
and
individuals who do not have a
valid social security number
will find that their withholding
is reduced the same as other
workers, all of which will result
in a reduced refund and
perhaps even a balance due.
(For joint filers, only one
taxpayer must be eligible to
claim the MWPC.)
Adult recipients of Social
Security, Railroad, SSI, and
Veterans
Retirement
or
Disability benefits, WHO
ALSO HAVE W-2 income,
should be aware that the $250
one-time Economic Recovery
Payment which they will
automatically receive reduces
any allowable “Making Work
Pay” credit that they’ll be able
to claim on the 2009 Tax
Return.
As an example, assume a
married couple who both work
use
Married
for
their
withholding status. They also
receive Social Security benefits.
The couple could receive as
much as $2,100 in early benefits
($800+&800+$250+$250).
The problem arises when the
2009 Tax Return is prepared.
Assume the couple is entitled to
a tentative Making Work Pay
Credit of $800. They will only
be ale to claim a $300 ($800$500) MWPC compared to
their $1,600 reduction in
withholding. This would result
in additional tax liability of
$1,300 tax liability-A BAD
SURPRISE!
We encourage individuals
who receive the Economic
Recovery
Payment
and
continue to work, individuals
with multiple jobs, married
couples who both work, and
individuals who do not qualify
to claim the MWPC to
consider submitting a revised
Form W4 with their employers.
The most straightforward “fix”
is to request a specific
additional dollar amount to be
withheld from each check
(Form W-4, line 6) to increase
your withholding to where it
needs to be.
As always, H&R Block is
here to assist you. You may

planning or making changes to
your current withholding at

Here are some ways to be a
conservationist and save money
in the kitchen while reducing
waste. The following are some
suggestions you can try.
1. Coordinate your meals
with the season. Reduce cost by
purchasing foods thar are
grown in that season, like a cold
salad on a hot day.
2. Use timers to save energy
and to prevent overcooking
waste.
3. Vacuum your refrigerators
cooling coils because the dust
reduces the life expectancy of
the compressor.
A good
compressor will keep food
fresher.
4. Make sure there is no gap
in the refrigerator door seal
because inefficient refrigerator
doors waste energy and causes
food spoilage.
5. Prolong the life of your
Eli Turns 2
Eli Wylie Lloyd turned 2 on

parents are Adam and Beverly
Lloyd of Clarkrange and his
grandparents are Arnold and
Amy Stephens of Jamestown
and

Lloyd
of
Clarkrange. He celebrated
with a Diego party. He wants
to thank everyone for coming
and for all the great gifts.
freezer foods by filling
containers with water and place
in the freezer for more
efficiency.
6. Label frozen food to
minimize the amount of cold
that escapes when looking for
an item.
7. Buy food in bulk to reduce
cost and packaging waste.
8. Buy foods that are grown
locally to save fuel cost of
transportation or plant your
own garden. Eating fresh foods
like corn instead of canned corn
reduces your carbon footprint
on the earth.
9. Save scraps to start a
tumbler or worm compost
system. Use the compost on
your garden.
10. Use
food
storage
containers with tight covers to
prevent moisture buildup this
reduces energy consumption.
This will also prevent food
waste by preventing flavor
transfer in foods.
These suggestions will be just
a start of your food and
nutrition conservation success
story. I hope you continue to
remember the environment in
all areas of life, even the
kitchen.

5th Annual Easter Princess
Pageant March 28th
Most of pre-teen and teens
have their own cell phones.
This is a useful tool for parents
to always know where their
child is and rest assured that he
or she can be reached easily
and quickly. However, with the
trend of texting and pix
messaging it is imperative that
you know exactly what sort of
messages your child is
exchanging with others.
SEXTING, while not entirely
new, is a common trend among
young people. SEXTING is
the sharing of sexual images
and texts through cell phones.
It is important to remember
that young people are not
thinking
through
the
consequences of sending a
“not-so-innocent” text.
In 2008 a teen, Jesse Logan
sent nude pictures to her
boyfriend. After their breakup
he maliciously sent those
pictures to hundreds of
students at their high school in
Cincinnati, Ohio. As a result,
Jesse was harassed, and
demonized as a “bad girl.” Her
reputation was ruined. Two
months later Jesse committed
suicide by hanging herself in
her bedroom.
According to research by the
National Campaign to Prevent
Teen
and
Unplanned
Pregnancy, 39 percent of teens
are sending or posting sexually
suggestive messages, 48 percent
are reported as receiving these
messages. Communication is
imperative. Here are some tips
for your pre-teen or teen about
SEXTING:
1) Think
about
the
consequences
of
taking,
sending, or forwarding a sexual
picture of someone underage,
even it is of you.
2) Never take images of
yourself that you wouldn’t
want everyone to see.
3) Before hitting send,
remember that you can’t
control where this image may
travel. What you could send to
a boyfriend, or girlfriend could
easily end up with their friends,
and their friends, and their
friends, and their friends…
4) If you forward a sexual
picture of someone underage,
you are as responsible for this
image as the original sender.
You could face pornography
chargers, go to jail, and have to
register as a sex offender.
5) Report any nude pictures
you receive on your cell phone
to an adult you trust. Do not
delete the message. Instead, get
your parents, teachers, and
school counselors involved
immediately.

petals and hearts. Residents,
family, friends, and employees
came together to participate in
the festivities as crowns and
royal robes were placed on each
King or Queen. Each Queen
received a special bouquet of
flowers and each King received
his own royal cake. Everyone
indulged in a repast fit for any
royal court. Scrumptious
strawberry

Update On Unemployment
Fund And Benefits
Headline Capitol Hill Week
From Senator Ken Yager
March 13, 2009 -- The Senate
Commerce Committee heard
testimony recently from Labor
Commissioner James Neely
regarding the status of
Tennessee’s
unemployment
trust fund and the potential
impact of stimulus money
coming to the state as a result
of the American Recovery and
Reinvestment
Act.
Commissioner Neely urged
committee members to take
action to “shore up” the fund or
face
the
possibility
of
borrowing from the federal
government if it becomes
insolvent. Neely predicts the
state unemployment fund will
be broke in just over a year if
things continue to deteriorate at
the current rate.
Meanwhile,
Finance
Commissioner Dave Goetz
appeared before our Senate
Finance
Committee
on
Thursday to give notification of
an expansion of the budget to
provide an additional $25 per
week in unemployment benefits
under the federal stimulus plan,
beginning immediately. This

money is very much needed by
many families across our
district who are suffering job
loss due to the recession. In
addition, the administration
will bring legislation that would
allow for the extension of
unemployment benefits of up to
59 weeks. Presently, Tennessee
provides
26
weeks
of
unemployment assistance, but
additional benefits can be paid
in times of high unemployment
under
federal
extension
programs.
Tennessee’s
statewide
unemployment rate for January
was 8.6 percent and is estimated
to have now risen to over nine
percent.
Neely said rural
communities, like several in our
senatorial district, have been
particularly affected by the
recession, with Perry County in
West Tennessee having a rate of
over 27 percent. Cities have a
more diverse workforce, many
of which are service-oriented, a
sector of the job market that
has not taken as hard a hit as
those jobs found in rural
areas.
Due to the rise in unemployed

workers,
Tennessee’s
unemployment
fund
has
decreased from $609 million
last July to a current level of
$269 million. Current law
provides that taxes are raised on
employers as the reserves in the
trust fund decline based upon
each
business’s
layoff
experience. The administration
will present a plan to our
legislature next week to address
the solvency of the fund.
Neely said the federal
stimulus money coming into the
state as a result of the American
Recovery and Reinvestment Act
“would help get employers off
the highest tax table sooner.”
The stimulus package does,
however, have strings attached
in order to receive the funds.
The federal act requires states
to enact three options from a
menu of five expansions of
benefits. These include:
• providing unemployment
benefits to part-time workers
• giving jobless benefits to
some who voluntarily leave
their jobs for a list of family
reasons, such as quitting a job
to relocate to another area if a
spouse moves
• increasing benefits for
applicants with dependents by
$15 per dependent per week
with a $50 limit
• extending benefits if job
training is involved
• changing the time period in
which
applicants
are
determined to be eligible for
unemployment to include the
present quarter prior to being
laid off
Finally, Neely told the
committee the administration’s
bill proposes changing the time
period in which applicants are
determined eligible, providing
part-time workers with benefits,
and adding the increased
payment to applicants with
dependents.
We will continue to monitor
the money for unemployment
benefits as they flow through
the state to those in our
communities. It is also very
important that we work at the
state and local level to bring
new jobs to our area as we
weather
this
worldwide
economic storm. I will keep
you updated as our legislative
session continues.
