Four thousand Georgia children unable to get vaccines for measles and mumps. Twentyseven thousand federal employees in Alabama facing furloughs. For the first time, the White SUPPORTING ACTRESS ANNE HATHAWAY House this weekend released stateby-state data behind the Beltway buzzword “sequestration,” warning of painful spending cuts and reallife consequences ahead. In a Sunday afternoon conference call with reporters, White House communications director Dan Pfeiffer said most people haven’t digested the reality behind budget-slashing rhetoric. He called the sequester “disruptive to their lives and communities.” Barring congressional action before Friday, Tennessee, Georgia and Alabama this year face a combined $861 million in agency reductions, grant modifications and unrecoverable revenue as a result of indiscriminate cuts and furloughs, White House figures show. Despite a shared role in creating the sequester, Democrats and Republicans equally dread its political impact; warnings of private-sector layoffs and a nationwide economic slide are the talk of See SEQUESTER, Page A5 WHAT DOES THE MONEY FUND?

TROUT FARM CATCHES ON ANIMATED FEATURE “BRAVE” FOREIGN LANGUAGE FILM “AMOUR” SUPPORTING ACTOR CHRISTOPH WALTZ Waltz, ‘Amour,’ among winners By David Germain The Associated Press LOS ANGELES — Anne Hathaway has gone from propping up leaden sidekick James Franco at the Academy Awards to hefting a golden statue of her own with a supporting-actress ONLINE Oscar win as a Go to www. doomed mothtimesfree er-turned-prospress.com/ titute in the oscars for a musical “Les complete list Miserables.” of winners Christoph and more. Waltz won his second supporting-actor Oscar for a Quentin Tarantino film, this time as a genteel bounty hunter in the slave-revenge saga “Django Unchained.” Hathaway, whose perkiness helped carry her and the listless Franco through an ill-starred stint as Oscar hosts two years ago, is the third performer in a musical to win supporting actress during the genre’s resurgence in the last decade. “It came true,” said Hathaway, who joins 2002 supporting-actress winner Catherine Zeta-Jones for “Chicago” and 2006 recipient Jennifer Hudson for “Dreamgirls.” Hathaway had warm thanks for “Les Miz” co-star Hugh Jackman, with whom she once sang a duet at the Oscars when he was the show’s host.

Fishery finds success selling to nearby eateries By Ben Benton and Tim Omarzu Staff Writers When Steve Pickett reopened his family’s Pickett Trout Ranch near Dunlap, Tenn., in 2004, the bulk of his business was from anglers who came to catch rainbow trout from the ponds there.

The finale to the blockbuster supernatural romance dominated the Razzies with seven awards, including worst actress for Kristen Stewart, supporting actor for Taylor Lautner, director for Bill Condon and worst screen couple for Lautner and child co-star Mackenzie Foy. Adam Sandler was named worst actor for the raunchy comedy “That’s My Boy,” his secondstraight win after 2011’s “Jack and Jill,” which swept all 10 Razzie categories a year ago. Pop singer Rihanna won worst supporting actress for the action dud “Battleship.” “Twilight” movies had been well represented in Razzie nominations over the years but had not won any key awards there. BALTIMORE — Otis “Damon” Harris, a former member of the Motown group The Temptations, has died of prostate cancer. He was 62. Chuck Woodson, a cousin serving as family spokesman, confirmed that Harris died at a Baltimore hospice last week. Harris performed with the celebrated Motown act The Temptations from 1971 to 1975 and sang on hits including “Papa Was a Rollin’ Stone” and “Superstar (Remember How You Got Where You Are).” Woodson says joining The Temptations was “the realization of a dream” for Harris. Harris formed a new group after leaving The Temptations and later released solo recordings. Woodson says that in his final years, Harris established a cancer foundation that was still in its early stages when he became ill. Harris also became a strong advocate for prostate cancer screening. 50 Cent, Franco make waves at Daytona 500 BOX OFFICE Rapper 50 Cent wasn’t content just chatting up Fox Sports reporter Erin Andrews. He went in for a kiss. Rebuffed. In the strangest part of the buildup to the Daytona 500, Mr. Cent brought back memories of Joe Namath’s awkward attempt to plant one on Suzy Kolber when he tried the same move with Andrews on pit road. She turned her head one way, then the other, only allowing the “Candy Shop” rapper to get a peck on the cheek.

Thankmarshall for the Daytona 500. fully, his announcement for the start of the Daytona 500 race lasted seconds compared to last year’s marathon Oscars ceremony, for which critics panned his performance. Franco told the field of 43 drivers, “drivers and Danica, start your engines” and that apparently rubbed some fans the wrong way as several onlookers standing near the start line winced. One male fan even mouthed to the woman standing next to him, “is she not a driver now?” The duty is normally carried out with the most famous words in racing: “Gentlemen, start your engines.” The Associated Press OTHER DEPARTMENTS Business Office Circulation Human Resources Production Production Fax Promotions Dept.

Periodicals postage paid at Chattanooga, TN. ■ Web site: timesfreepress.com The Associated Press The Associated Press NEW YORK — Hollywood’s latest films performed tepidly at the box-office on Oscar weekend, with Melissa McCarthy’s “Identity Thief” returning to the top spot in its third week of release. The Universal comedy earned $14.1 million on the weekend, according to studio estimates Sunday, enough to regain the box-office title after losing it last week to 20th Century Fox’s “A Good Day to Die Hard,” the Bruce Willis action sequel. With a cumulative total of $93.7 million, “Identity Thief” is the biggest hit so far in 2013. Though the film has been badly reviewed by critics, the road trip duo of McCarthy and Jason Bateman has proved popular at the multiplexes, where no other comedy has been around to challenge it. More than anything, “Identity Thief” has proven the stardom of McCarthy, following her breakout performance in “Bridesmaids.” “The holding power of a film always gives you an idea of the strength of its concept or its star,” said Nikki Rocco, Universal head of distribution. “In this case, it’s both.” WRITE, CALL OR EMAIL TO PLACE AN AD Prince Classified Classified Fax Internet Retail Retail Fax 757-6200 757-6461 757-6901 757-6252 757-6337 NEWSNOW WALTER E.

Finally, A Breakthrough In The Treatment Of Back & Neck Pain And Sciatica Caused By Bulging, Herniated Or Squashed Discs In this doctor’s opinion, the best breakthrough treatment for serious back pain of our age is NOT surgery, but a non-surgical, safe & painless, state-of-the-art technology now available in Chattanooga. ankle. It would hurt whenever I was sitting or standing so I would have to switch every few minutes. I didn’t want to have surgery so I tried decompression. I was hoping to have less pain and now I have no pain! If you hurt, don’t wait as long as I did to get help. I’ve never been to an office where I’ve been treated as wonderfully as I have by Dr. Wall and his staff. Don’t wait. Go! Brenda Lee- Receptionist-Apison, TN Chattanooga, TN – My name is Dr. John Wall D.C. and the following is a true story. A very well known local surgeon told one of my very first patients…”That won’t hurt you, but it’s not going to help”. Those were the words of this well-known surgeon. He was referring to my new disc machine that reduces and eliminates the back pain and sciatic pain out of those with disc problems. Back Surgeon Was Dead Wrong! Lucky for my patient, he chose to take my advice. After a thorough examination, I determined he was a candid ate for Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression. I recommended a course of treatments that lasted five weeks and to my patient’s pure delight, the severe back pain he had been taking drugs for was going away. By the end of his treatment, he was totally pain free! He was pain free and off the pain medication for good. Do You Have A Disc Problem? If you experience any of the following in your back or neck, chances are your pain is due to a disc bulge, herniation or degeneration: ☞ A vice-like squeezing feeling in your back ☞ Sitting causes back or leg pain ☞ Stabbing pain at the belt line or in your neck ☞ Can’t turn over in bed without hurting ☞ Numbness in your toes or fingers ☞ Fire down your legs ☞ Searing pain radiates into your arm ☞ Prickling in your leg or toes Finally, Some Good News If you’ve been suffering with back pain or arm/ leg pain caused by a disc bulge, disc herniation or squashed or compressed discs. I GUARANTEE that you will be accepted for treatment only if I truly feel that you can be helped. It’s all because of 15 recent medical studies on spinal decompression. Until recently, the only advice for many of you suffering in pain was to try what you’ve been told: ✓ Try exercising ✓ Try physical therapy ✓ Try pain medications ✓ Try muscle relaxers ✓ Try pain shots ✓ Try dangerous back surgery ✓ Just live with it If you’re like most, none of these have worked for you or you are afraid of what could happen if you do try some of these. Exercising makes you hurt more, pain medications and muscle relaxers cover up the problem and give you side effects. Pain shots can cause more pain, don’t work or don’t last very long or FIX the problem, back surgery didn’t work or made you worse. Or maybe you were one of the lucky ones that back surgery actually helped, but now the problem is back with a vengeance. Caution! Decompression is DIFFERENT than old time traction or hanging upside down or inversion machines which can make your muscles squeeze the discs even harder! Whatever your situation, you owe ti to yourself to check into a Breakthrough Computerized NonSurgical Treatment for back pain and sciatic or leg pain caused by a bulging, herniated or squashed disc or discs. It has helped hundreds of people who were suffering just like you. This new treatment machine I’m calling my squashed disc machine. How Do Discs Go Bad? Over time the discs in your back tend to get squashed or compressed, especially if you’ve played certain sports when younger or have a job that requires lots of sitting or standing in one place for long periods of time. Car accidents, lifting things, very physical jobs just to name a few Before I came to see Dr. Wall I was completely at my end. I couldn’t do anything. I couldn’t plan anything. It even hurt to talk. I had been suffering from a burning, tingling, knifelike back pain every day for several years. I tried prescription medication, (910 pills a day), chiropractic, physical therapy and had five epidurals. After having decompression therapy I have little to no pain! I can now do the things that I want and need to do. I’ve gotten my life back. Sally Hookey-Housewife-South Pittsburgh, TN It’s kinda like a cookie with cream filling, and the cream filling will start to ooze out from between the sides of the cookie if pressure is applied on top of the cookie (like gravity on our spines).

I couldn’t sleep or even bend over to pick anything up off the floor. My husband was bedridden and I was afraid that I Eventually this happens to a lot of us. Statistics are couldn’t take care of him. I had an MRI, epidurals something like over 80% of Americans will suffer and the surgeon recommended back surgery for my with back pain sometime in their live. herniated disc. Now I have NO PAIN! Thank you Dr. Back to my new computerized squashed disc machine. Wall. The staff is great and they back the best cookies for you! You’re probably wondering how this new machine Ruby Phillips-Retired-Whitewell, TN works. How Does This Machine Work? Haven’t you ever had the thought…”Gosh, if somebody could just pull me apart…I Would feel a whole lot better”. Yeah, I know you have. And it kinda makes a bit of sense. Well someone else, actually a medical manufacturer, back pain specialists, neurosurgeons and engineers have come up with just that. A machine that gently pulls you apart, stretches the disc to a certain point that causes a drop in pressure inside the disc (like a little vacuum in the middle the cream filling) causing the cream filling to suck back in! In my clinic, I’ve treated hundreds of patients with non surgical spinal decompression with great results so there should be no reason your back pain should be any different. Actually, I’m so sure we can help you with your back problem, I’m willing to back it up… but not with hot air. I GUARANTEE to accept your case only if I truly feel that you can be helped. That’s right. I give this guarantee because there are only a very small percentage of people that we can’t help. And I’m going to let you know if you’re not right for the treatment. Here’s how one applicant said after he was told that he couldn’t be helped I came to Chattanooga Spine and Nerve Institute for a Spinal Decompression consultant. After the consultation and exam I was told that I was not a candidate for the treatment. However, I was treated wonderfully and with great respect by Dr. Wall and his staff. I would highly recommend this office to anyone looking for help. Mike Lawson-Chattanooga, TN And that’s why I’m giving you for a limited time… Like Mr. Lawson, Most Serious Back Pain Suffers Are Very Skeptical Of This New Procedure, As Skeptical As I Was When I Purchased My First Decompression Machine, So If You Are Skeptical…See What Some Of Our Patients Who WERE Good Candidates Have Had To Say About Our Program: I have had low back pain since 1992.

I had an MRI which showed that I had a herniated disc in my neck. Then I was sent to the neurosurgeon and orthopedic surgeon in Dalton. My only options were epidurals or surgery. I wanted to try decompression first. Boy, am I glad I did! My neck pain is gone and I can now use my arm without pain. I went to a follow- up appointment with my orthopedic surgeon in Dalton and he told me to “keep doing what I’m doing”. They are a great bunch of people and you’ll be glad you went.

The U.S. is concerned that the same kind of infighting that doomed the Syrian National Council may be hindering the SOC, the official said. In addition to Ford’s trip to Cairo, the top U.S. diplomat for the Mideast, Elizabeth Jones, planned to head to Rome on Monday to add her voice to the argument to opposition members there. Kerry is on a self-described “listening tour” of Europe and the Mideast, chiefly focused on ending the crisis in Syria. Pope to continue to serve God, church New York Times News Service The Associated Press Pope Benedict XVI delivers his blessing during his last Angelus noon prayer Sunday. crowd. “On the contrary, if God asks me, this is because I can continue to serve” the church “with the same dedication and the same love which I have tried to do so until now, but in a way more suitable to my age and to my strength.” Cardinals from around the world have begun gathering in Rome to greet Benedict before he retires at 8 p.m. on Thursday. At that point, the cardinals will meet to discuss when to begin the conclave to elect his successor. One member of the crowd in St. Peter’s Square on Sunday, Jan Cartwright, 61, said she had traveled to Rome from Wales. Cartwright said she was surprised that the pope had decided to resign. “We have the queen,” she said. “No one in the royal family would step down, they just go on until they die, really.” But she said she admired Benedict’s decision. “I think it’s a brave thing to do,” she said. “He’s an old man.” Syria rebels fight for police academy Palestinians call for probe of prisons sparked a week of West Bank protests. The death of Arafat Jaradat set off more clashes between Israeli troops and Palestinian stone-throwers in several areas of the West Bank on Sunday. In one incident, two Palestinians were wounded by army fire, including a 15-year-old boy who was shot in the chest, a Palestinian health official said. Jaradat’s death raised new questions about Israel’s Shin Bet security service, which has been accused by rights groups of mistreating Palestinians during interrogation. Palestinian officials and the detainee’s family alleged Jaradat was mistreated by the Shin Bet, saying he was healthy at the time of his arrest last week. Israeli officials said Jaradat died of an apparent heart attack and denied he was beaten or subjected to any treatment that could have led to his death. Castro says new term will be last HAVANA — Cuban President Raul Castro says he will not seek another five-year term after the one he’s starting Sunday ends. He has tapped 52-yearold Miguel Diaz-Canel as his top deputy, ready to assume the presidency without any disruption. Castro says the country has reached a “transcendent” moment in which it is ready to start transferring responsibility and power to a younger generation. Associated Press RICK DAVIS GOLD & DIAMONDS #1 GOLD BUYER BUYING ALL DAY EVERYDAY 35366267 LONDON — The U.S. is frantically trying to salvage a Syrian opposition conference that John Kerry plans to attend this week during his first official overseas trip as U.S. secretary of state. A senior Obama administration official said Sunday that Kerry has sent his top Syrian envoy to Cairo in hopes of convincing opposition leaders that their participation in the conference in Rome is critical to addressing questions from potential donors and securing additional aid from the United States and Europe. Some members of the sharply divided Syrian Opposition Council are threatening to boycott Wednesday’s meeting, which is the centerpiece of Kerry’s nine-nation tour of Europe and the Middle East. According to the official, U.S. envoy Robert Ford will say that the conference is a chance for foes of Syrian President Bashar Assad to make their case for new and enhanced aid — and get to know America’s new chief diplomat, who has said he wants to propose new ideas to pressure Assad into leave power.

Its former owner will return to court in Dayton on Tuesday to be sentenced for guilty pleas to child rape and related charges in a haunting case that experts call unusual because the perpetrator was an adoptive father and the victims were three boys in his care. The pleas have all but ensured he will spend the rest of his life in prison. The 40-year-old man, whom The Associated Press isn’t naming to protect the children’s identities, said in an interview that he had been a foster parent, youth basketball coach and substitute teacher for years without any problems. He said he didn’t adopt the boys with bad intentions. “I always wanted to protect kids,” he said during one of two interviews at the Miami County Jail. “Somewhere along the line, things went wrong.” The single man was a foster parent for six other children before he began adopting children in the past three years. He adopted a brother and sister and an unrelated boy, and was in the process of adopting another boy, all ages 9 to 12, when authorities arrested him a year ago Sunday following an undercover sting that began when a detective looked into an online posting about “taboo sex.” “This isn’t a typical situation. It certainly isn’t typical of people seeking adoption,” said David Finkelhor, director of the Crimes Against Children Research Center at the University of New Hampshire. “Most abusers of this sort have an interest in a child during a certain period of their development. They are looking for opportunities where they can get access to the kids. They don’t want to have custodial responsibility.” The adoptive father has already been sentenced here to at least 60 years in prison. In Dayton, he is expected to be sentenced to at least 50 years, to run concurrently. In a jail interview, his eyes teared up and his voice choked as he said he was sorry for the pain he had caused them. In a letter from jail, he wrote: “I’ve been able to protect my kids from everything and everyone, except myself.” Regular Guttering Also! The Gutter that Never Clogs...

The foreign-language prize went to Austrian filmmaker Michael Haneke’s old-age love story “Amour,” which had been a major surprise with five nominations, including picture, director and original screenplay for Haneke and best actress for Emmanuelle Riva, who turned 86 on Sunday and would be the oldest acting winner ever. The top prize winner at last year’s Cannes Film Festival, “Amour” follows the agonizing story of an elderly man (JeanLouis Trintignant) tending his wife (Riva) as she declines from age and illness. Haneke thanked his own wife for supporting him in his work for 30 years. “You are the center of my life,” Haneke said. The Scottish adventure “Brave,” from Disney’s Pixar Animation unit, was named best animated feature. Pixar films have won seven of the 12 Oscars since the category was added. The story of an dauntless princess (voiced by Kelly Macdonald) who balks at her parents’ attempts to marry her off, “Brave” won out over a strong field that included Disney’s “Wreck-It Ralph” and “Frankenweenie.” “I just happen to be wearing the kilt,” said “Brave” co- Sequester TOTAL SEQUESTER CUTS THIS YEAR in the tri-state area will be immunized against whooping cough, influenza, hepatitis B and other disorders, the White House said. Despite the implications, there appears to be no action toward a deal. Citizens might assume their officials were discussing potential solutions last week, but a Washington visitor would have encountered a quiet Capitol as Congress enjoyed a five-day recess. Many members traveled to their home states and griped publicly about a lack of debate. Meanwhile, President Barack Obama enjoyed a long Presidents Day golf holiday in Florida. Sunday’s data dump and media conference call were the latest in a comprehensive White House public relations effort to sway Republicans to postpone the cuts. “There are hundreds of thousands of Americans who are working today who will lose their jobs as a consequence of this Republican decision,” Pfeiffer said, adding the president would rather close tax loopholes on corporations and the nation’s wealthiest than rely solely on spending cuts. After allowing the George W. Bush tax cuts to expire in January, Republicans loathe Obama’s proposed remedy of tax increases and spending cuts. GOP lawmakers call for solving the problem with spending cuts alone. Last week in Chattanooga, Sen. Bob Corker, R-Tenn., called the automatic cuts “ham-handed” but said America would be “better off as a nation if we let the sequester kick in than we would to continue to sweep this problem under the rug.” Contact staff writer Chris Carroll at ccarroll@times freepress.com or 423-2802025. Washington. Local worries are beginning to emerge. At the National Governors Association winter meeting here this weekend, Tennessee Gov. Bill Haslam said he fears the cuts indefinitely could delay toxic-waste cleanup at Oak Ridge National Laboratory. “Every line item gets cut, regardless of what it is,” he told The Washington Post on Saturday. “This is not a smart way to do government.” Passed as part of the Budget Control Act of 2011, the automatic cuts were designed as an incentive for Congress to find palatable ways to slash $1.5 trillion over the next decade. That didn’t happen. The sequester was scheduled to trigger Jan. 1, but Congress postponed it until Friday. Another delay seems unlikely as both parties assign blame with the countdown clock ticking. Principals • Continued from Page A1 pool of candidates. “You want to have a group of people who you can identify that are ready for those jobs,” Smith said in an interview. By the 2013-14 school year, 24 principals and 19 assistant principals will have completed 30 years of school service, the minimum time required to qualify for full retirement. District leaders don’t expect that many to retire, though the numbers show the need for more school administrators in the near future. Many of those holding key central office positions also are at or approaching retirement age. But this year’s group of principals also presents another demographic challenge. With 16 first-year principals — nearly a quarter of the county’s principals — administrators are working on amping up mentoring and training programs for novice school leaders. “You’re looking at a system with a number of people who are new to the job or who could retire at any time,” Smith said. Himself a former principal, Smith is adamant that the principal plays the most important role in the school system. And with a new teacher evaluation system, highstakes testing and increased pressure to close student achievement gaps, Smith said the job now requires a special individual. “It’s no longer a wise situation to take people out of the classroom and assume they’re ready to be a school leader,” he said. National research shows that principals are serving shorter tenures than in years past. And the job is growing increasingly complex as pov- The Associated Press Anne Hathaway arrives at the Oscars in Los Angeles, where she won the Academy Award for best supporting actress for her performance in “Les Miserables.” ■ Tennessee: $73.4 million ■ Georgia: $485.7 million ■ Alabama: $302.5 million Source: The White House By releasing 50 state profiles, the White House implied the sequester harms everyone everywhere, potentially weakening nutrition aid for seniors, law enforcement grants and early education programs such as Head Start. Other possible casualties include public health initiatives, work-study jobs for college students and environmental projects for clean air and water. Tennessee, Georgia and Alabama will lose $53 million in education funding for primary and secondary schools, White House figures show. Additionally, civilians who work for the Department of Defense stand to lose $402 million in unpaid furloughs. Another human cost? Nearly 9,000 fewer children erty, disabilities and other sociological problems continue to seep into schools. In a study released this month by MetLife, threequarters of surveyed principals said their jobs had become too complex, and nearly half reported feeling under great stress several days a week or more. “The responsibilities of school leadership have changed significantly in recent years, leading to a job that principals say has become too complex and highly stressful,” the report states. CREATING THE PIPELINE Hamilton County plans to continue its existing programs, Leadership Fellows and the Principal Leadership Academy. Those yearlong programs are conducted in partnership with community organizations. Graduates often go on to jobs as principals or assistant principals, though there is no guarantee of promotion. But now, administrators want to do more. Instead of preparing only a small group of people to be principals, leaders want to extend opportunities for teachers and employees at all levels of employment. “Essentially we’re looking at the whole career pathway of educators in our district,” said Robert Sharpe, assistant superintendent for education and leadership. Once built, the pipeline will work with aspiring principals and central office leaders. But it also will work with teachers who may want to stay in the classroom but take on more responsibility by becoming department heads or lead teachers, Sharpe said. The idea is to provide support for aspiring, novice and veteran leaders throughout their careers. The system also will allow the superin- tendent to be more active in making principal appointments. He won’t have to recruit people once principals are transferred or announce their retirements; a pool of candidates will be at the ready. The leadership pipeline, set to be switched on in the fall, drew questions at last week’s meeting of the Hamilton County Board of Education. Board member Rhonda Thurman, a regular critic of the Public Education Foundation, questioned that group’s involvement in the program. The current Principal Leadership Academy is a district partnership with PEF, the Chattanooga Area Chamber of Commerce and the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga. Thurman is suspicious about who selects people for the program and is wary of too much involvement by the nonprofit. PEF officials said the program is a true partnership, and the selection committee includes community members, school employees and PEF employees. Thurman also said she takes issue with leadership programs such as the Principal Leadership Academy that take teachers or assistant principals out of their buildings for professional development and mentoring. While district leaders laud the support that participants get from the training program, Thurman said principal training should occur in-house. “The best lessons they can learn are in the schoolhouse,” Thurman said. “There’s always been principals retiring. If we had been training principals all along and assistant principals were being trained by good principals, we wouldn’t have this problem.” Contact staff writer Kevin Hardy at khardy@timesfree press.com or 423-757-6249.

In a choked voice, Waltz offered thanks to his character and “to his creator and the creator of his awe-inspiring world, Quentin Tarantino.” Waltz also offered gracious thanks to his supporting-actor competitors, who included two-time Oscar winner Robert De Niro and Oscar recipient Tommy Lee Jones, who had been considered a slim favorite over Waltz for the prize. A veteran performer in Germany and his native Austria, Waltz had been a virtual unknown in Hollywood when Tarantino cast him as a gleefully evil Nazi in 2009’s “Inglourious Basterds,” which won him his first Oscar.

James Kirk, appearing on a giant screen above the stage during MacFarlane’s monologue, saying he came back in time to stop the host from ruining the Oscars. MacFarlane did press his luck a bit on an Abraham Lincoln joke, noting that Raymond Massey preceded “Lincoln” star Daniel Day-Lewis as an Oscar nominee for 1940’s “Abe Lincoln in Illinois.” “I would argue that the actor who really got inside Lincoln’s head was John Wilkes Booth,” MacFarlane wisecracked, earning some groans from the crowd. “A hundred and 50 years later, and it’s still too soon?” List with Libby! and I’ll provide a Home Warranty in the Sale of your Home!

But he was tiring of having people show up as late as 10 p.m. “It’s weird when you live somewhere, and you’ve got people coming down all the time,” he said. Serendipity played a role in his current business model. Before taking over the fish farm, Pickett worked for a beer, wine and liquor distributor. That put him in touch with chefs to whom he now sells fish. Fishery • Continued from Page A1 FISH FARMING Kelly Armonett, University of Tennessee Agriculture Extension Service Eastern Region Fisheries agent in Morgan County, Tenn., says aquaculture in the eastern 33 counties of the Volunteer State has fish farming participants, but the industry has seen little growth. “We don’t have very much in East Tennessee; we have some,” he said. “At one time, Staff Photo by John Rawlston Steve Pickett carries a bucket of trout to the cleaning room at Pickett’s Trout Ranch in Sequatchie County, Tenn. “ we had the freshwater prawn, some folks were experimenting with it. But it kind of came and went.” Armonett said catfish, tilapia and freshwater prawn are the most common species farmed across the state, followed by trout and some koi, the ornamental pond fish. “Every year for the past five years there are 10 to 15 folks that are looking to get into aquaculture,” he said. “The big thing is the marketing,” Armonett said. Feed costs are high, electricity to run aerators is expensive and most operations need to harvest large quantities of fish — for example, draining a whole catfish or trout pond at once, or harvesting highly populated “cages” of fish in artificial habitats — to make a profit. Armonett and Georgia Seafood safety officer Sandy Shepherd say inland fish producers need a niche market. “There’s a huge amount of interest, but unless you are able to fill a niche market with your product, there’s just too much overhead for them to continue with it,” Shepherd said. He said f ish farmers are learning to diversify to attract more interest and protect against losses.

Haynes, 21, has been dancing with Elite for three years. Sequined sisterhood W hile fans cheer for the Mocs, the Elite Dance Team sits statuesque. But when a timeout is called, they jump into action. Dancing to the rhythm of the Mocs’ “World’s Most Dangerous Pep Band,” the dance team entertains the crowd with its hip-hop-infused style. “Our style of dance makes us different,” said Caylor Haynes, a management major from Nashville. “The cheerleaders do stunts. The Sugar Mocs are more technical dance. Our style is hip-hop, some technical dance and I guess you could say a little bit of street style.” Haynes is the “caller,” third in command behind the captain and co-captain. She starts the routines while the team, officially part of the band, follows her lead during each of the Mocs football games as well as men’s and women’s basketball games. Every moment of their dance routine is choreo- graphed. One dancer will start, then the others will join a few seconds later. Dancers perform in sequined blue, silver and gold uniforms, capped by khaki high heels. Their bodies moving in unison, they vigorously move their arms, hips and legs to the beat before sitting down one by one. For Haynes, it’s the shared experience of dancing that brings her joy. They practice two to three times per week, always hoping to improve. “We see each other’s strengths and weaknesses. We grow together,” said Haynes. “It’s like a sisterhood. I’ve met a lot of people and made a lot of friends.” After dancing for nearly 15 years, Haynes tried out for both the cheerleaders and Sugar Mocs, but wasn’t selected. But now she says dancing with Elite just feels like home. “I think this was where I was meant to be,” she said. “I’ve been on [the squad] for three years ,and I don’t think I would change it for anything now.” STORY AND PHOTO BY PATRICK SMITH MOMENT is a weekly feature by the Times Free Press photo staff that explores the seldom-told stories of our region.

ATLANTA — A federal judge temporarily is preventing Georgia’s governor from replacing DeKalb County school board members who were recommended for suspension by the state Board of Education. Gov. Nathan Deal had scheduled a news conference for 11 a.m. today to announce whether he would follow the recommendation to suspend six of the nine board members. WSB-TV reported that the order from U.S. District Judge Richard Story doesn’t restrain the governor from suspending board members, but it enjoins him from implementing any decision pending a court hearing Friday. The judge’s ruling was in response to a request from the DeKalb County school board. The school board is challenging the Georgia law that allows Nathan the governor to suspend Deal and ultimately remove board members at the recommendation of the state Board of Education. That can occur in school systems placed on probation by an accreditation authority. The judge’s ruling calls a timeout in the case until Friday. “If Governor Deal decides to appoint any new member to the board, that proposed member shall not be permitted to take office at this time,” Story’s order said. “Similarly, if Governor Deal decides to remove any current member of the board, that member will remain in office, but shall not be permitted to act on behalf of the board or take any other official action in his or her capacity as board member.” The order was made public Sunday by WSB-TV. The DeKalb system, the state’s thirdlargest public school system, is at risk of losing accreditation by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools.

Martin said the day had been successful, but overwhelming. “You think you know what you want until you see something better, and then you go, ‘Well, scratch that,’” she said. Teresa Groves, the executive officer of the Home Builders Association of Greater Chattanooga, said about 12,000 people attended the event over its three-day run. “A lot of people come back year after year,” she said. “They can only do one or two projects a year, and they know they can trust our vendors, so they come see what they have to offer.” Staff Photo by Connor Choate David Graves, owner of Reid Cox, right, of AFS Foundation & Waterproofing Specialists talks to Irwin Kopla, Complete Roofing and ExteriSee SHOW, Page B5 of Ringgold, Ga., Sunday at the Tri-State Home Show at the Chattanooga Convention Center. ■ To contact Local News • Phone: 423-757-6317 • Fax: 423-668-5062 • Email: [email protected] B2 • Monday, February 25, 2013 • • • . timesfreepress.com ...

Bill Gates William Allen “Bill” Gates, of Signal Mountain, died on Thursday, Feb. 21, 2013. Bill’s life was defined by fierce loyalty and abiding devotion to his family, friends and faith. There was no favor too large or sacrifice too significant for Bill when a need arose among his loved ones or even acquaintances. His affection for those around him was the inspiration for his sense of humor and good-natured teasing, but no one who knew Bill ever doubted the deep well of generosity that was the essence of his character. And there was no truer friend in a time of need. Bill loved the Braves and UTC basketball. He was never happier than when he could volunteer at church where he served as treasurer for 30 years or Sertoma where he was an Honorary Life Member. The Speech and Hearing Center occupied a special place in Bill’s heart and he particularly enjoyed his time as a volunteer there. He remained vigorous even as he grew older, snowmobiling in Yellowstone and shooting his age on the golf course into his 80s. And he was never too old to jump into the swimming pool with one of his grandchildren. His recollection of names and the important concerns in the lives of the people he met was a reminder of the depth of his care for those around him. Bill attended Central High School, and the University of Chicago before serving his country in World War II. He worked in management at Container Corporation of America in Chattanooga and Memphis for 25 years before owning Gates Signal Garden restaurant and then became partners in a bookkeeping firm in Chattanooga. His work ethic was unmatched and he was a role model for honest and forthright relationships throughout his career. But even more important was the way his 63 year-long marriage to Helen, who preceded him in death in March of 2012, served as an example of lifelong commitment and unwavering love to his family and friends. Bill is survived by his son, George Gates and his wife, Nora; daughter, Anthie Sutterfield and her husband, Al; son, Mickey Gates and his wife, Carol; and daughter, Emilie Evans and her husband, Keith. In addition, eight grandchildren, 14 greatgrandchildren, and two greatgreat-grandchildren all had a place in Bill’s heart. Pallbearers will be Woody Atchley, Mark Atchley, Dan Atchley, Ronnie Evans, Hank Evans, Dan Gates, Ron Lee, George Sloan. Honorary Pallbearers are Nicholas Kalanzis, George G. Ellis and William L. Brown. The family will receive visitors from 5 to 7 p.m. today, Feb. 25, at Alexian Inn (old hotel) at Alexian Village on Signal Mountain with a prayer service at 7 p.m. Georgia EDITOR’S NOTE: Obituaries printed in today’s edition A memorial service will be held at Annunciation Greek Orthodox Church (722 Glenwood) at 11 a.m. on Tuesday, Feb. 26, with the burial following at National Cemetery.

Bradley Rogers’ mother told WTVC-Channel 9 that Hamilton County detectives had confirmed the victim was her son and that foul play is suspected. Law enforcement in Hamilton and Marion counties refused to release any information Sunday. A dispatcher for the Marion County Sheriff’s Office stated that no identification had been released. “We can’t confirm that it is or isn’t [Rogers],” she said. Hamilton County Sheriff’s Office spokeswoman Janice Atkinson said Sunday night there were no updates on the search for the missing man. Rogers, who was home on leave from deployment overseas, was last seen Feb. 3 at the Electric Cowboy nightclub in Chattanooga. Two fishermen found the body Saturday afternoon near Raccoon Mountain. Marion County Sheriff Bo Burnett told WRCB-Channel 3 that the man was in his 20s and might be from Hamilton County. NASHVILLE — Tennessee lawmakers are poised to decide this week whether a proposal to allow supermarket wine sales moves ahead or withers on the vine. The bill to overhaul the current system that prevents shoppers from buying wine alongside groceries faces votes in both House and Senate committees this week, where as little as a single vote could decide the bill’s fate after months of lobbying. “It could fall either way at this point,” said Republican Sen. Ken Yager, of Harriman, chairman of the Senate State and Local Government Committee. Yager’s committee meets today to hear from both sides of the bill, which seeks to allow cities and counties to hold referendums on whether to do away with liquor stores’ exclusive license to sell wine. The ninemember panel is scheduled to vote the following day. Yager, who opposes of the bill on the basis that the change would hurt existing package stores in his district, said the measure could come down to a 5-4 vote. “There is a little more intensity this year because the proponents of the bill feel really encouraged and they’re pumped up,” Yager said. “I’m just not willing to vote for something that would hurt local business.” Current law prevents grocery and convenience stores from selling any alcoholic drinks stronger than beer, while package stores can’t sell anything except for liquor. Constituent support for wine sales in groceries seems strong in the state’s larger cities, where the grocery stores have erected displays encouraging shoppers to get behind the bill. Supporters of expanded wine sales say liquor stores should be able to sell other items such as beer, ice, mixers and snacks, but so far those offers have been rebuffed by the other side in favor of current laws. Senate Speaker Ron Ramsey, of Blountville, and fellow Republican House Speaker Beth Harwell, of Nashville, support the supermarket wine measure. Ramsey told reporters last week that a favorable vote in the Senate committee could force lobbyists for the liquor stores and wholesalers to join in negotiations, which they have been unwilling to do while they could count on the bill being killed in committee each year. “I hear from my local liquor store owners that if you open it up and allow us to sell other things, the potato chips and snacks that you get a 100 percent markup on, then we’re OK with this bill,” Ramsey said. “But as long as the opponents of this bill have at least five votes to hold it up in committee, that’s never going to happen.” Ramsey said he’s more confident that the Senate panel will advance the measure than he is that the House Local Government Committee will do the same Tuesday. House Majority Leader Gerald McCormick, R-Chattanooga and a supporter of supermarket wine sales, said he’s uncertain about the outcome of the vote, but added that “it’s more favorable than it’s ever been.” McCormick said the proposed overhaul of liquor laws reflects Republicans’ willingness to re-evaluate issues that Democrats refused to consider in the decades they ran the Legislature. “There have been some special interests over the years that have gotten used to getting their way every time,” McCormick said. “We’re taking a new look at things.” House Local Government Chairman Matthew Hill, R-Jonesborough, said he remains undecided about the bill and called this week’s hearings key to the measure’s fate. “This has been very educational for me,” he said. “I’ve had both sides in my office — I don’t want to say nonstop — but quite a bit over the last couple weeks.” B4 • Monday, February 25, 2013 • • • .. timesfreepress.com ..

A brown mustang named Lightning was found in Waynesville inside a small barbed-wire fenced-in area with no food or water. “Animals are in trouble, and somebody’s got to care for them,” Murrah said. The farm is at near capacity since the Great Recession, which left some farmers and pet owners unable to care for their animals. “A lot of people couldn’t afford their animals,” said Bascom Murrah, Natalie Murrah’s father, who lives on the farm. The cost of caring for the animals at the farm, which recently became a nonprofit organization, is paid mostly from personal finances. The costs can add up. The farm has little room to take in new animals, but its owners hope to grow its programs. That means ani- mals in retirement might have just one more light duty job to do. Bascom Murrah said he hopes to get a program going for special-needs children that would involve the farm’s retired denizens. It’s a space some children already have come to love. “We’re definitely not a petting zoo, but we definitely try to teach children how to interact with animals,” Natalie Murrah said. Loudon County, Tenn., Sheriff Tim Guider has requested funding from the Loudon County Commission for four more school resource officers. Guider told the County Commission’s Budget Committee last week that added officers would enable his office to staff each of the nine county schools. The cost to the county would be about $280,000 per year, he said. The primary purpose of the officers is to provide increased security, Guider said. “Obviously, it’s not a guarantee, but I certainly believe it’s a deterrent,” he said. The $280,000 request would cover training and equipment but not the cost of vehicles. The SROs would not be assigned new vehicles, he said. The sheriff’s office has one SRO assigned to cover three schools in the city of Loudon after a vote last year by the City Council to cut funding for Loudon city police officers in the schools. The proposal has the backing of school board members and school administrators. Schools Director Jason Vance said he would welcome the additional officers in the schools. “I think it’s a great thing,” said Scott Newman, school board member and a sergeant with the Loudon Police Department. Newman said every school in the county should have at least one school resource officer. Larger campuses such as North Middle School might need two, he said. County Commission Budget Committee member Don Miller said he supports putting an SRO in every school but hates having to spend the money. He said he would rather put the money straight into education, but safety has to come first. “I hate to say it, but it’s a sign of the times. Children are our most precious asset. We have to protect them first,” he said. He said he has been hoping the state or federal government would help local governments with the cost of extra security at schools. “I would hope they could help. Almost every county is doing this now,” he said. Miller said the additional funding might be included in the budget for next year or even amended to this year’s budget. He said the lead time to hire and train new officers is significant. The commission may want to move quickly on funding to make sure the SROs are in place for the start of the 2013-14 school year. Commissioner Sharon Yarbrough said she would support the increased cost of having an officer in every school. She said she also would like to see improvements in the physical security at the schools and at all county buildings. In the long term, the county is also going to have to look at the causes of crime and violence, she said. “Just pouring more money into security isn’t the answer,” she said. ... . timesfreepress.com • • • Monday, February 25, 2013 • B5 Breaking News: [email protected] Close work Rescued caver says he was lucky By Lindsay Burkholder Staff Writer After tumbling about 40 feet down a hole in a Franklin County cave on Saturday, Georgia Tech student Steven Touchton says he’s OK. “I think I was really lucky,” Touchton, 21, said Sunday. “I didn’t get nearly as many injuries as I could have.” Touchton suffered a broken pelvis, three breaks to his clavicle, a compression fracture to a vertebra and a small fracture in his left wrist. Fortunately, none of the breaks require surgery and Touchton will be headed home for a bit after his release, he said by telephone from his bed in Erlanger hospital. “It will be difficult to be mobile for the next couple weeks,” he said.

He pointed to a number of vinyl siding displays. “They’re going for the vinyl stacked-stone look,” he said. “All you have to do with that is keep it clean.” Buyers are leaning towards durability indoors, as well.

TANGLE OF ARGUMENTS Telephone companies fund the state landline subsidy. Last year the federal government cut its monthly subsidy for low-income phone users from $10 a month to $9.25. The feds also cut incentives to states that support the federal program. If the state subsidy is eliminated, low-income cellphone and landline users still would receive the $9.25 federal discount. The state program only affects landline users, and AT&T spokesman Bob Corney argued in an email that “most Tennessee Lifeline customers are wireless customers — more than 80 percent and growing.” Consumer advocates say ending the state subsidy could hurt hundreds of thousands of Tennessee families who only have landlines to call 911. State AARP spokeswoman Karin Miller said Friday that “telephone service is critical to the health and safety of Tennesseans.” She said, “AARP is fighting to preserve access to basic service, whether by landline or mobile phone.” Corney said when the federal Lifeline program was established in the 1990s, Tennessee’s Public Service Commission established a state program that provided an additional $3.50 discount. At the time, the telecoms’ rates were regulated by the PSC and the program was funded by excess company profits. In 2009, AT&T successfully pushed a “market regu- lation” bill through the legislature, with the result that its rates are no longer regulated by the PSC’s successor, the TRA. Corney said that in 2012, the FCC “substantially reformed the Lifeline program to eliminate waste, fraud and abuse.” He said the federal agency established a flat $9.25 discount for lifeline service in every state and eliminated the impact of the state program. Since then, five other states have stopped unreimbursed programs, and only Mississippi and Tennessee require telecommunications companies to provide service without reimbursement. The bill, which contains several other provisions, easily passed the House Business and Utilities Subcommittee last week and comes before the full Business and Utilities Committee on Wednesday. “This bill does not end the state program,” Corney said. “It just says the TRA can’t require telephone companies to fund a social program Deal • Continued from Page B1 The association has put DeKalb County on probation because of a report the association issued in December about abusive behavior, nepotism and questionable financial decisions by board members. An ensuing shakeup left the board with a new chairman and new superintendent. Even with the changes, the Georgia Board of Education agreed Thursday to recommend suspending six DeKalb board members. Deal told The Atlanta Journal-Constitution that he’s concerned that the board’s dysfunction could taint the broader Atlanta metro area if left unchecked. “We don’t want anything to occur that will jeopardize what a diploma from a DeKalb County high school might mean, so everything that can be done to facilitate and bring this all to some logical conclusion serves us all,” he said. Last week, parents delivered to the governor a petition with more than 1,800 signatures asking him to remove the board members. Rather than suspending the six, Deal could consider a plan pushed by some legislators to allow the governor’s office to monitor the school board’s progress in a tightly controlled agreement if the county would abandon its legal challenge to the suspension law. “There are options other than removal,” Democratic Sen. Jason Carter, of Decatur, said. “Otherwise, the problem he faces is that there’s fallout in both directions. If he doesn’t remove the board, there’s criticism from people who want them removed. And if he does, you’re removing people who are duly elected.” without being reimbursed.” He did not say whether landline customers will see lower charges if the measure passes.

But the impact on their favorite spot? “It’s going to hurt,” Timmy Gamble said. The Southern Environmental Law Center this month named Goforth Creek Canyon one of its “Top 10 Endangered Places in the Southeast for 2013.” Melanie Mayes, chairwoman for WaysSouth — an environmental group aimed at promoting alternatives to “destructive highway projects” including Corridor K — said the Tennessee Department of Transportation’s project to build a new, wider highway through the gorge will “destroy Goforth Creek’s recreational value and pristine waters.” “Any of the existing plans will be devastating,” Mayes said. Mayes and TDOT officials agree Goforth Creek Canyon is in the cross hairs of any new path over the mountains through the Cherokee National Forest. “And the higher up they go, the more they’ll impact downstream,” Mayes said. in parts of Kansas City.

The need for the project and how it can be built are what those studies will determine, he said. “There are basically six different alternatives that are being reviewed, and all proposed new location alternatives are to the north of the existing alignment [on present-day U.S. 64],” Sutherland said. “All the alignments in some way or another utilize portions of the existing route.” Doing nothing to the existing U.S. 64 is among the options, he noted. But that would mean problems would remain, such as rock slides, narrow lanes, a lack of road shoulders and guardrails, he said. Sutherland urges folks who are concerned about the project and its impact to wait until late summer when TDOT releases its draft environmental impact statement.

Ochs, Publisher 1878-1935 HARRY AUSTIN Times Page Editor Contact: 757-6900,, [email protected] COMMENTARY THEY’RE BACK Debt commission guys are pushing same old plan They’re baaack! Just about two years ago, Erskine Bowles and Alan Simpson, the co-chairmen of the late unlamented debt commission, warned us to expect a terrible fiscal crisis within, um, two years unless we adopted their plan. The crisis hasn’t materialized, but they’re nonetheless back with a new version. And, in case you’re interested, after last year’s election — in which AmeriPaul can voters made it Krugman clear that they want to preserve the social safety net while raising taxes on the rich — the famous fomenters of fiscal fear have moved to the right, calling for even less revenue and even more spending cuts. But you aren’t interested, are you? Almost nobody is. That moment has now passed; even Bowles concedes that the search for a “grand bargain” is on “life support.” Let’s convene a death panel! But the legacy of that year of living foolishly lives on, in the form of the “sequester,” one of the worst policy ideas in our nation’s history. Here’s how it happened: Republicans engaged in unprecedented hostage-taking, threatening to push America into default by refusing to raise the debt ceiling unless President Barack Obama agreed to a grand bargain on their terms. Obama, alas, didn’t stand firm; instead, he tried to buy time. And, somehow, both sides decided that the way to buy time was to create a fiscal doomsday machine that would inflict gratuitous damage on the nation through spending cuts unless a grand bargain was reached. Sure enough, there is no bargain, and the doomsday machine will go off on Friday. The right policy would be to forget about the whole thing. America doesn’t face a deficit crisis, nor will it face such a crisis anytime soon. Meanwhile, we have a weak economy that is recovering far too slowly from the recession that began in 2007. And, as Janet Yellen, the vice chairwoman of the Federal Reserve, recently emphasized, one main reason for the sluggish recovery is that government spending has been far weaker in this business cycle than in the past. We should be spending more, not less, until we’re close to full employment; the sequester is exactly what the doctor didn’t order. Unfortunately, neither party is proposing that we just call the whole thing off. But the proposal from Senate Democrats at least moves in the right direction, replacing the most destructive spending cuts with tax increases on the wealthy, and delaying austerity in a way that would protect the economy. House Republicans, on the other hand, want to take everything that’s bad about the sequester and make it worse: canceling cuts in the defense budget, which actually does contain a lot of waste and fraud, and replacing them with severe cuts in aid to America’s neediest. This would hit the nation with a double whammy, reducing growth while increasing injustice. As always, many pundits want to portray the deadlock over the sequester as a situation in which both sides are at fault, and in which both should give ground. But there’s really no symmetry here. A middle-of-the-road solution would presumably involve a mix of spending cuts and tax increases; well, that’s what Democrats are proposing, while Republicans are adamant that it should be cuts only. So here we go. The good news is that compared with our last two selfinflicted crises, the sequester is relatively small potatoes. A failure to raise the debt ceiling would have threatened chaos in world financial markets; failure to reach a deal on the so-called fiscal cliff would have led to so much sudden austerity that we might well have plunged back into recession. The sequester, by contrast, will probably cost “only” around 700,000 jobs. But the looming mess remains a monument to the power of truly bad ideas — ideas that the entire Washington establishment was somehow convinced represented deep wisdom. New York Times News Service EDITORIAL SEQUESTER SUGGESTS A LONG LOOK AT TAXES REPUBLICANS DETERMINED TO AVOID INCREASES D emocrats and Republicans remain at odds on how to avoid a round of budget cuts so deep and arbitrary that to allow them now could push the economy back into recession. The cuts, known as a sequester, will kick in Friday unless Republicans agree to President Barack Obama’s demand to a legislative package that combines spending reductions and tax increases. At present, Republicans seem determined to say no to any new tax increases. “Spending is the problem,” declared the House speaker, John Boehner. “Spending must be the focus.” Reflecting the views of many of her Republican colleagues, Rep. Martha Roby said last week that Obama “already got his tax increase” as part of the January agreement over the “fiscal cliff” and that no further increases were necessary. Both are wrong. To reduce the deficit in a weak economy, new taxes on high-income Americans are a matter of necessity and fairness; they are also a necessary precondition to what in time will have to be tax increases on the middle class. Contrary to Boehner’s “spending problem” claim, much of the deficit in the next 10 years can be chalked up to chronic revenue shortfalls from the Bush-era tax cuts, which were only partly undone in the fiscal-cliff deal earlier this year. (Wars and a recession also contributed.) It stands to reason that a deficit caused partly by inadequate revenue must be corrected in part by new taxes. And the only way to raise taxes now without harming the recovery is to impose them on high-income filers, for whom a tax increase is unlikely to cut into spending. As it happens, those taxpayers are the same ones who benefited most from Bush-era tax breaks and who continue to pay low taxes. Even with recent increases, the new top rate of 39.6 percent is historically low; investment income is still taxed at special low rates; and the heirs of multimillion-dollar estates face lower taxes than at almost any time in modern memory. On the spending side, Republicans are resisting cuts to defense. That implies brutalizing cuts in nondefense discretionary areas, like education and environment, which are already set to fall to their lowest level as a share of the economy since the 1950s. As for entitlements, Republicans mainly want to cut those that mostly go to the middle class and the poor, while ignoring nearly $1.1 trillion in annual deductions, credits and other tax breaks that flow disproportionately to the highest income Americans and that cost more, each year, than Medicare and Medicaid combined. Clearly then, there is both ample room and justification to reduce the deficit by curbing tax breaks at the high end, as Obama has proposed and Republicans have rejected. Raising taxes at the top is neither punitive nor gratuitous. It is a needed step, both to achieve near-term budget goals and to lay the foundation for a healthy budget in the future. As the economy strengthens and the population ages, more taxes will be needed from further down the income scale, both to meet foreseeable commitments, especially health care, as well as unforeseeable developments, from wars to technological challenges. But there will never be a consensus for more taxes from the middle class without imposing higher taxes on wealthy Americans, who have enjoyed low taxes for a long time.

The greatest nation in the world is slowly, methodically and deliberately destroying itself from within, all under the guise of being politically correct! We have now legalized the murder of millions of babies and are legalizing same-sex marriage. The nation has become so apathetic that the people stand by and watch the removal of Bibles and prayer from our schools, the weakening of our military and the slow destruction of one of our greatest organizations, the Boy Scouts of America. As a Scout and later a Scout master, I was taught the Scout oath, it is an follows: “On my honor I will do my best, to do my duty to God and country and to obey the Scout law, to help other people at all times, to keep my self physically strong, mentally awake and morally straight.” This Scout oath is an excellent guide for all of us to follow. Let us stand up and support the Boy Scouts as they struggle to keep the organization morally straight. Allowing homosexuals to join the Scouts would be a complete departure from the founding principles of the Boy Scouts. GENE O. WAGNER SR Rossville LIBERALS WANT TO ELIMINATE OPPOSITION I see cartoonist Clay Bennett is showing his true liberal colors again. The showing of a cellphone with all the apps being conservative — implying they should all be removed, to be more to the point — nothing remotely conservative should exist. This is typical left-wing, liberal thinking at its best — eliminate or trash anything or anyone that disagrees with the liberal socialist agenda. Liberals just can’t seem to understand theirs is not the only opinion — or agenda that is protected by our First Amendment. As a conservative, I do not believe your liberal opinion should be silenced. I may not always agree with you, but you still have the constitutionally protected right to express yourself. Just remember, if our Constitution is ever totally eradicated your right to free speech will disappear, also. Every day I feel our government is heading in that direction: More government means fewer personal freedoms. Wake up America, before it’s too late. PHILIP D. WILKERSON Hixson city government, and his pragmatic business approach are hard to find. The public certainly understands that common sense and a business approach greatly benefit the city, considering the current state of affairs. Roger Tuder is a family man married for 40 years, served his country in the Army, and was entrusted with substantial financial decisions in the banking industry throughout his career. When I was appointed to serve as Parks and Recreation director, I discovered numerous needs that were ignored, while wasteful pursuits were funded. The city needs an elected leadership with fresh ideas and a common-sense spending approach, given the current bond debt and desire of the public for tax dollars to be used effectively and efficiently. Please vote for Roger Tuder, District 2 City Council on March 5. ROB HEALY TUDER’S FRESH IDEAS WOULD BE ASSET TO CITY I recommend a vote for Tom McCullough for the Chattanooga City Council, District 1. He is a positive thinker, thorough when making decisions and dedicated to tasks undertaken. He will carry forward his proven philosophy and represent his district well.

We are fortunate to have a person of his ability who wants to continue serving his community. SUE SMARTT I always have believed that principles should prevail over politics.

Every year a budget has been passed in the House but never addressed in the Senate. The White House has submitted budget plans, but those have been rejected on a bipartisan basis. After almost four years of neglecting the most basic conRobin stitutional duty of Smith Congress, a piece of legislation sponsored by Sen. Lamar Alexander is aiming to end this disgusting embarrassment of having no budget. At its essence, the legislation proposes an amendment to the U.S. Constitution that would require that: “Total outlays for any fiscal year shall not exceed total receipts for that fiscal year, unless two-thirds of the duly chosen and sworn members of each house of Congress shall provide by law for a specific excess of outlays over receipts by a roll call vote.” Like most governors, the federal government would be required to balance its budget. Like any business that remains functional, the U.S. government would be required to formulate a plan to prioritize spending, make difficult decisions, and fund the necessities first. A balanced budget amendment would force accountability in Washington that our great state of Tennessee, and countless others, must meet. Fiscal discipline should not be viewed negatively, but as a trait characteristic of our great nation. It’s no irony that this bill is originating from the very legislative body and sponsored by the very members, such as Sen. Alexander, who’ve been adamant about solving our nation’s spending problem, addressing the mandatory spending for entitlements to secure their future existence and demanding presidential leadership rather than the endless campaigning and heckling of those who should be partners in rendering a remedy. Sens. Alexander and Bob Corker have proposed a solution that would end the pay of members of Congress if a budget is not passed with all appropriations bills by Oct. 1 of each year to fund our government, the “No Budget, No Pay Act.” Most recently, our Tennessee Senators submitted a serious plan to address the debt in the “Dollar-forDollar Act” that targets entitlement spending and reduces its malignant growth by $1 trillion. Understand: If entitlement spending is ignored and the fable is continued that Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid are just fine in their current forms, these programs will end. The Congressional Budget Office forecasts that by 2025 (in just 12 years) every single dollar coming into the U.S government will be completely consumed to fund these programs plus the interest on our debt. That’s it. No money for infrastructure or roads. No funding for the military or defense. No money for education. With the current policies and defiance in the face of a crisis, the United States will become a complete entitlement state. Period. Is there hope? Well, last week’s hearing of the Senate Appropriations Committee placed an Obama Administration official, Danny Werfel, centerstage dancing around the fact there is no plan that exists to save Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid from President Obama. Attempts to weave, deflect, and reframe were met with the simple question by Senator Alexander: “So, states have to balance their budgets. Why is it at the federal government we don’t ... do what everybody knows we have to do, which is get control of entitlement spending…” Folks, America has a serious problem. Tennessee is providing leadership in moving directly toward solutions through Alexander and Corker by reforming entitlements and formulating a budget. It’s time to act. Taking Tennessee principles to D.C. is the answer. Robin Smith served as chairwoman of the Tennessee Republican Party from 2007 to 2009. She is a partner at the SmithWaterhouse Strategies business development and strategic planning firm. EDITORIAL CUT FEDERAL ROLE IN POLICE, FIRE, EDUCATION WASHINGTON HAS NO PLACE IN LOCAL MATTERS F lanked by state and local police officers and firefighters in full uniform, President Obama predicted last week that even a 1 percent cut in overall government spending would have dire consequences. “Emergency responders like the ones who are here today — their ability to help communities respond to and recover from disasters will be degraded,” Obama warned. “Thousands of teachers and educators will be laid off,” he continued. “I know that sometimes all this squabbling in Washington seems very abstract, and in the abstract, people like the idea, there must be some spending we can cut, there must be some waste out there. There absolutely is. But this isn’t the right way to do it.” Obama’s warning was nothing more than partisan nonsense. But he is right about one thing: Funding police, fire and education services at the federal level “isn’t the right way to do it.” Take K-12 education, which the federal government had almost zero role in funding until President Carter created the Department of Education in 1979. Since then, federal education spending has grown more than 350 percent. Yet math, reading and science scores are virtually identical to those of the 1970s. Every dime of federal education spending appears to have been completely wasted. Or take police hiring. The federal government had almost no role in funding before President Clinton created the Community Oriented Policing Services, or COPS, in 1994. COPS was supposed to give temporary grants to local governments to hire police officers until they could secure their own permanent funding. Of course, local governments just got hooked on the federal cash, and some even used it to replace local funding. Worse, a 2006 study found COPS grants were completely ineffective at actually reducing crime. Finally, look at fire safety, which the federal government had almost zero role in funding before President Bush created the he Assistance to Firefighters Grant, or AFG, program in 2001, and the Staffing for Adequate Fire and Emergency Response, or SAFER, program in 2003. The AFG program gave localities money to purchase firefighting equipment, vehicles and fitness equipment. SAFER subsidized firefighter salaries. Local governments purchased plenty of Segways with the newfound federal largesse, but a 2009 study found neither AFG nor SAFER reduced firefighter deaths, firefighter injuries, civilian deaths or civilian injuries. Not only is federal funding for police, fire and education services completely ineffective, it also makes it harder for citizens to hold local leaders accountable when government fails. Before the federal government began intervening in traditionally local subject matters, it was easier for voters to know whom to punish when crime was up or the schools were bad: their local politicians. But once the federal government gets involved, who do voters blame when things go wrong? Is it the mayor’s fault that crime is up because not enough police officers were hired? Or is it the president’s fault because the city’s COPS grant wasn’t renewed? Local governments provided education, fire and police service for literally hundreds of years before the federal government got involved. If anything, the sequester is a great opportunity to begin trimming back the federal government’s unwarranted involvement in local matters.

John McCain responded (correctly) that President Obama was creating a “cudgel” to gain “political advantage in the next election.” Marco Rubio, a chief architect of the Senate bill, called Obama’s alternative dead on arrival. They doth protest quite a lot. Especially because on the single most important issue — instant amnesty — there is no real difference between the proposals. Rubio calls it “probationary legal status.” Obama uses the term “lawful prospective immigrant.” But both would instantly legalize the 11 million illegal immigrants living here today. The moment either bill is signed, the 11 million become eligible for legal residence, the right to work and relief from the prospect of deportation. Their life in the shadows is over, which is what matters to them above all. Call the status probationary or prospective but, in reality, it is permanent. There is no conceivable circumstance (short of criminality) under which the instant legalization would be revoked. This is bad policy. It repeats the 1986 immigration reform that legalized (the then) 3 million while promising border enforcement — which was never carried out. Which opened the door to today’s 11 million. And to the next 11 million as soon as the ink is dry on this reform. The better policy would be enforcement first, followed by amnesty. Yes, amnesty. But only when we have assured that these 11 million constitute the last cohort. How to assure that? With three obvious enforcement measures: (a) a universal E-Verify system by which employers must check the legal status of all their hires, (b) an effective system for tracking those who have overstayed their visas, and (c) closure of the southern border, mainly with the kind of triple fence that has proved so successful near San Diego. If legalization would go into effect only when these conditions are met, there would be overwhelming bipartisan pressure to get enforcement done as quickly as possible. Regrettably, there appears to be zero political will to undertake this kind of definitive solution. Democrats have little real interest in border enforcement. They see a rising Hispanic population as the key to a permanent Democratic majority. And Republicans are so panicked by last year’s loss of the Hispanic vote by 44 points that they have conceded instant legalization. As in the Rubio proposal. Hence Rubio’s fallback. He at least makes enforcement the trigger for any normalization beyond legalization. Specifically, enforcement is required before the 11 million can apply for a green card. A green card is surely a much weaker enforcement incentive than is legalization. But it still is something. Obama’s proposal, on the other hand, obliterates any incentive for enforcement. Obama makes virtually automatic the eventual acquisition of a green card and citizenship by today’s 11 million. The clock starts on the day the bill is signed: eight years for a green card, five more for citizenship. It doesn’t matter if the border is flooded with millions of new illegal immigrants (anticipating yet the next amnesty). The path to citizenship is irreversible, rendering enforce- ment irrelevant. As for Obama’s enforcement measures themselves, they are largely mere gestures: increased funding for border control, more deportation judges, more indeterminate stretching of a system that has already demonstrably failed. (Hence today’s 11 million.) Except for the promise of an eventual universal E-Verify system, it is nothing but the appearance of motion. And remember: Non-implementation of any of this has no effect on the path to full citizenship anyway. The Rubio proposal at least creates some pressure for real enforcement because green card acquisition does not take place until the country finally verifies that its borders are under its control. True, a far weaker incentive than requiring enforcement before legalization. But that fight appears to be totally lost. In the end, the only remaining vessel for enforcement is the Rubio proposal. It is deeply flawed and highly imperfect. But given that the Obama alternative effectively signs away America’s right to decide who enters the country, the choice between the two proposals on the table today is straightforward.

JJ now two-timer Patrick eighth in Daytona 500 By Jenna Fryer The Associated Press Danica Patrick cross the start/finish line to take the lead shortly before the halfway point of the Daytona 500. HIGHLIGHTS Viewed from afar, without the gory details that almost always burden one’s real life, Tamika Catchings appears to have led an almost perfect existence during her 33 years on Mother Earth. Daughter of longtime NBA forward Harvey Catchings, she lived a childhood of relative economic privilege. Upon signing a women’s basketball Mark scholarWiedmer ship with Commentary Tennessee, she became a four-time All-American, was voted Rookie of the Year for her first professional season delayed by a knee injury and was the WNBA MVP in 2011. She’s also won three Olympic gold medals, the third coming last summer in London. No wonder in announcing that Catchings will speak to the FCA’s Road to Victory banquet on March 5, area FCA director Jay Fowler said, “We are thrilled to have one of the best women’s basketball players in the world coming to Chattanooga. ... We think this is a tremendous opportunity for girls’ basketball players and coaches from all over the Tennessee Valley to see and hear Tamika and learn how she was able to reach the pinnacle of her sport.” And it should be quite an event, along with the basketball clinic Catchings will conduct earlier that day at the Chattanooga Convention Center, which is open to girls from any area middle school, high school, recreational league, Upward or AAU team. The first 300 registering receive FCA bags filled with special goodies. The clinic is free but attendees must register by this Friday by calling 423-877-3561. But great as Catchings’ career has been, it was the obstacles she faced early in her life that should most inspire anyone who hears her FCA talk. “I was like anyone when I was young. I just wanted to fit in,” she said last week. “Athletics gave me an avenue to feel normal.” She didn’t feel normal for much of her young life because she had, in her words, “moderately severe hearing loss in both of my ears. To this day I cannot here certain tones and pitches — even in my voice — but it was worse growing up.” In a blog last fall she vividly and painfully ■ Female pole-sitter stays in top 10 throughout ■ Stewart, Harvick among favorites wrecked early ■ Fans near track given chance to move back DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. — A big first for Danica Patrick; an even bigger second for Jimmie Johnson. Patrick made history up front at the Daytona 500 on Sunday, only to see Johnson make a late push ahead of her and reclaim his spot at the top of his sport. It was the second Daytona 500 victory for Johnson, a fivetime NASCAR champion who first won “The Great American Race” in 2006. “There is no other way to start the season than to win the Daytona 500. I’m a very lucky man to have won it twice,” said Johnson, who won in his 400th career start. “I’m very honored to be on that trophy with all the greats that have ever been in our sport.” It came a year after Johnson completed only one lap in the race because of a wreck that also collected Patrick, and just three months after Johnson lost his bid for a sixth Sprint Cup title to go two years without a championship after winning five in a row. Although he didn’t think he needed to send a message to his competitors — “I don’t think we went anywhere; anybody in the garage area, they’re wise to all that,” Johnson said — the win showed the No. 48 team is tired See NASCAR, Page C6 Lady Vols clip Arkansas By Kurt Voigt The Associated Press FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. — Meighan Simmons turned her head to watch the video board, just like the rest of her teammates. The Tennessee junior had little interest in watching the pregame presentation, which featured highlights of Arkansas’ shocking overtime win over the Lady Vols last season, other than to fuel her inner fire. Simmons scored 18 points as the No. 11 Lady Vols rallied from an 11-point second-half deficit Sunday and held on for a 60-54 Southeastern Conference win over the Razorbacks. “We seemed to not have the intensity level we needed in the first half,” Tennessee coach Holly Warlick said. “We came in and had a good conversation and made some adjustments at halftime, and we stepped it up and played with a little bit more passion and effort in the second half and got the job done.” The Lady Vols (22-5, 13-1) remained atop the conference standings and face the SEC’s other top two teams — No. 10 Texas A&M and No. 8 Kentucky — this coming week. The Razorbacks’ win last season snapped an 18-game losing streak to Tennessee. It was also the first win in Knoxville for Arkansas (17-10, 5-9) and opened the door for the Razorbacks to reach the NCAA tournament and helped Kentucky slip past the Lady Vols to win the SEC’s regular-season championship. Highlights from the win were played on the video board in Bud Walton Arena before Sunday’s tipoff, a fact that didn’t go unnoticed by the Lady Vols — or Simmons. “For us, I feel like we’re going after an SEC championship and everybody is going to try and give See LADY VOLS, Page C5 Mocs’ Tull remains driven By John Frierson Staff Writer Individually, there wasn’t much University of Tennessee at Chattanooga sophomore defensive end Davis Tull didn’t achieve in 2012. In his second season as a starter, Tull was the Southern Conference defensive player of the year, made multiple All-America teams and set a Mocs record with 12.5 sacks in a season. Not bad for a player who walked on in 2010 and admits he still has a lot to learn about the position. UTC coach Russ Huesman said every player in NCAA Division I football dreams of playing in the NFL. Tull is among them, though the 6-foot-3, 230-pounder ■ The Southern Conference defensive player of the year believes he can be much better. has numerous goals he wants to achieve before he’s done in college. “It’s like the ultimate goal, I guess, making [playing in the NFL] become a reality,” he said. “But still only being a junior [next season], you can’t really focus on that too much. For us to have not won a championship yet, that’s goal No. 1.” As a freshman and sophomore, Tull had UTC career sack leader Josh Williams playing the right defensive end position. Williams drew considerable attention, which often helped free Tull on the left. Williams finished with 23.5 sacks; Tull has 17.5 in two seasons. Tull said he might be switching sides from time to time this fall, so opposing teams will have to find him and adjust accordingly. “I’m kind of excited for the new challenge of trying the other side,” he said. “I think that will be fun, trying to perfect that other side.” Who will be playing the other end spot remains to be seen.

Balance aids Lady Mocs’ lofty status By John Frierson Staff Writer Staff Photo by Connor Choate UTC football defensive star Davis Tull goes hard through recent drills in his desire to get even better. ■ To contact Sports • Phone: 423-757-6273 • Fax: 423-668-5049 • Email: [email protected] It’s a two-team race for the Southern Conference women’s basketball regularseason championship. And the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga can clinch the title outright tonight at McKenzie Arena with a win against second-place Davidson. For UTC (24-3, 17-1), which has been atop the standings since the start of conference play, it has been a team-driven season. A prime example of that? The Lady Mocs have had just two SoCon players of the week all season, and none since Dec. 11. UTC coach Wes Moore said center Ashlen Dewart has been the driving force for much of the season, but it is a team with balance. “You’ve got to look at what Ashlen’s done the last couple of games,” Moore said.

UTC shot a collective 295 in the final round for an 875, one shot behind Louisiana Tech and four behind third-place South Carolina. Third-ranked Texas had an 842 for a 21-shot win over Houston. The Mocs’ Steven Fox and Davis Bunn closed with a 72 and a 73, respectively, and tied for 18th and 22th at 217 and 218, while Liam Johnston fell back with a final-day 79 for a 219. Chris Robb shot 223. Texas golfers finished first, second and tied for third, led by Brandon Stone at 207. TRACK AND FIELD ■ The UTC women’s distance medley relay team of Teghan Henderson, Gabby Cader, Jessica Philpott and Amanda Sumner finished second in the Southern Conference indoor track and field meet Saturday at Winston-Salem, N.C., in 12:01.72. They were all-conference along with Mocs freshman Marquis Carter, a runner-up Sunday with a 1:54.21 800-meter run. Classmate Trevor Janssen was fourth in 1:55.29 and an all-freshman honoree along with Carter, Iman Isang in the 60 hurdles, Kiaana Howard in the 800, Matthew Marshall in the mile and Henderson with a fifth place in the women’s 5000. UTC junior Nathan Wanuch was sixth in the men’s 3000, seventh in the 5000. The UTC men were sixth in team points; the Lady Mocs were eighth out of 12 teams. BASKETBALL ■ A 64-58 loss Sunday to Middle Georgia Tech at Warner Robins kept the Georgia Northwestern women’s basketball team from repeating as the Region XVII representative in the NJCAA Division III national tournament. Kiarra Parks scored 13 points and Sierra Smith and Alyssa Nichelson added 12 and 11 for the Lady Bobcats (14-11), who cut a 17-point deficit to 59-57 before falling. Odessa Person had 13 rebounds. ■ Tennessee Wesleyan’s Zamarius McClendon was the tournament most valuable player after totaling 68 points and 29 rebounds in the top-seeded and nationally 14th-ranked Bulldogs’ three wins on the way to the Appalachian Athletic Conference men’s championship Saturday in Kingsport, Tenn. McClendon had 54 points and 23 rebounds the first two days and scored 14 points in the final against Bryan. Also on the all-tournament team were TWC’s E’Jay Ward, Desmond Crisp and Matt Harper and Bryan’s Derrick Walker and Robert Troino. Wesleyan’s Heather Gibson made the women’s all-tournament team. Women’s tournament champion Reinhardt (19-14) has a couple of Dalton players in key roles: April Besley and Hannah Mayo. ■ Carson-Newman junior Ish Sanders from Cleveland scored 33 points with 9-of-18 3-point success in the Eagles’ 92-55 South Atlantic Conference basketball home win Saturday over Anderson. BASEBALL ■ The NAIA’s top-ranked Tennessee Wesleyan baseball team edged visiting Indiana University Southeast 3-1 and 2-1 in games Sunday, giving the Bulldogs a sweep of their weekend series. Corey Rhoney and Noah Piard combined on a four-hitter in the 3-1 win, when Jake Stone was 3-for-3 with an RBI and David Donald and Logan Dalton drove in the other runs for TWC (11-4). Wes Minton homered and Brackton Smith had the other RBI in the 2-1 game, when the Bulldogs had two hits to IUSE’s four off Tyler Wilson and three relievers. ■ Earlham College scored five runs in the last three innings to win 7-4 Sunday and avoid a baseball sweep at Sewanee, which won 6-5 and 2-1 in Saturday’s games. Jack Rogers batted in two runs Sunday for the host Tigers (4-1) after going 2-for-3 and matching Blake Williams’ and Colin Barrera’s two RBIs in Saturday’s series opener. Worth Osgood pitched a seven-hitter in the 2-1 win for Sewanee, when Williams was 2-for-3 with two RBIs and James Snover was 2-for-3 and scored twice. LACROSSE ■ Olivia Vietor had four goals and two assists in Sewanee’s 17-12 Southern Athletic Association women’s lacrosse win Saturday at Millsaps. Mallory Grimm, Ellie Murphy and Wittney Reed each scored three goals and Sammy Strasburger recorded nine saves for the Tigers (2-1). The Sewanee men (2-0) won 15-10 over Wittenberg in Nashville as Michael Morris and Pierce Leonard had four and three goals and an assist apiece, Cotter Brown had two goals and four assists and Tommy Healy made 11 saves.

Hammer, who won the individual pursuit Wednesday, scored 20 points in the overall omnium standings after six events, four points better than defending world champion Laura Trott of Britain, who beat the American for the Olympic gold in the discipline in London. Botticher beat Russia’s Denis Dmitriev in two races in the sprint final to claim his second gold medal this week. TENNIS ■ BUENOS AIRES, Argentina — David Ferrer won his second tennis tournament of the season by defeating Stanislas Wawrinka 6-4, 3-6, 6-1 on Sunday to successfully defend his Copa Claro title in the Argentine capital. The top-seeded Ferrer broke his opponent six times — including three in the final set — to clinch the 20th title of his career. He won the Heineken Open last month in Auckland, New Zealand. Ferrer won this tournament last year, beating Nicolas Almagro in an all-Spanish final. Backed by strong support from the Argentine crowd, Ferrer promised to return. In the doubles final, the Italian pair of Simone Bolelli and Fabio Fognini defeated American Nicholas Monroe and Germany’s Simon Stadler 6-3, 6-2. TRACK AND FIELD ■ JOHANNESBURG — The murder case involving Olympic star Oscar Pistorius took another unexpected turn Sunday with the news that his older brother, Carl, is himself facing charges for the death of a woman in a traffic accident. Carl Pistorius faces a charge of unlawful, negligent killing for a 2008 road death “in which a woman motorcyclist sadly lost her life,” Kenneth Oldwage, the Pistorius family lawyer, said Sunday.

Mahan had gone 169 holes through 11 matches without trailing in this wild tournament until Kuchar won the fourth hole of their championship match with a par, and Mahan never caught up. Kuchar took advantage of a series of miscues to build a 4-up lead at the turn and then held off a noble challenge by the defending champion. There was never a dull moment on the back nine. Only two holes were halved, and those were with birdies. “Match play I find to be such an amazing, unique format, so much fun to play and so much pressure,” Kuchar said. “It seems like each hole there’s so much momentum riding and so much pressure on every hole. To come out on top after six matches of playing the top 64 guys in the world, it’s an incredible feeling.” But for all the great shots, the match ended when Mahan went from a tough lie in the bunker to a bush in the desert, and it took him four shots to reach the 17th green. Kuchar wound up winning, 2 and 1, when Mahan removed the stocking cap he used to fight the cold desert air and conceded Kuchar a short birdie putt. It was the first World Golf Championship title for Kuchar, and it follows a year in which he won The Players Championship. Kuchar became the second player in the last three years to win the Match Play Championship without ever playing the 18th hole. Mahan was trying to join Tiger Woods as the only back-to-back winners, and he gave it a good shot despite the big deficit halfway through the match. In a strong, cold wind — the wind chill index reached a low of 37 degrees on the final day — Mahan made a long two-putt par to win the 10th and played a tough chip from the mound of a bunker to about six feet from the next hole for a birdie, cutting the lead in half. Mahan followed with a tee shot into about 10 feet on the par-3 12th, the momentum squarely on his side. Kuchar, however, followed with a tee shot to just inside 15 feet and made the birdie putt. On the par-5 13th, Mahan hit a poor approach from the fairway and Kuchar got up and down to restore his lead to 3 up. Kuchar came up with one more clutch shot. With a 2-up lead on the 304-yard 15th hole and the breeze at his back, Kuchar chipped about 10 feet past the hole with Mahan only six feet away for birdie. Kuchar holed the putt and escaped with a halve. Mahan won the 16th with a two-putt par when Kuchar’s tee shot bounced off the corporate tents behind the green, and it look as though the match would go down the 18th for the first time in nine matches for Kuchar. Both hit into the fairway bunker, but Mahan’s ball was slightly sunk in the sand, and his approach never came close to reaching the green. Instead, it rolled through a patch of desert until it lodged in a bush. Kuchar’s record in this event improved to 15-3, the highest winning rate of anyone who has played at least 10 matches. He has reached the quarterfinals each of the last three years, and this time he went all the way. He played 96 holes and trailed only after four holes all week. Kuchar polished off Jason Day of Australia in the semifinals Saturday morning, 4 and 3. Mahan hit a series of remarkable wedge shots in beating Ian Poulter, 4 and 3, in his semifinal. He twice hit difficult chips inside 5 feet to win holes, and then seized control with a chipin from about 70 feet on the 12th hole to take command. Day defeated Poulter in the consolation match, 1 up. Kuchar moves to No. 8 in the world and picked up $1.5 million. He has earned just over $3.2 million from his last two wins. 41 35 31 26 20 L Pct GB 13 18 27 30 37 .776 .673 .534 .455 .351 — 61⁄2 14 181⁄2 1 24 ⁄2 L Pct GB 15 22 25 30 33 .732 .614 .554 .464 .377 — 61⁄2 10 15 191⁄2 Central Division W L Pct GB Pacific Division W L Pct GB Indiana Chicago Milwaukee Detroit Cleveland 35 32 26 22 18 21 24 28 36 38 L.A.

INDIANAPOLIS — Former LSU star Tyrann Mathieu thought he hit rock bottom when coach Les Miles kicked him off the team last August for failing multiple drug tests. He was wrong. Eleven weeks later, Mathieu and three of his ex-teammates were arrested at his Baton Rouge apartment for marijuana possession. Now, after undergoing drug treatment and seeking counseling, Mathieu is trying to restore his reputation and return to the game he loves. “I know what it’s like not to have football. I know what it’s like not to be the center of attention. I know what it’s like to be humiliated, and I’m not going down that road again,” Mathieu said Sunday at the NFL’s annual scouting combine in Indianapolis. It’s certainly not the path Mathieu expected to take into the NFL. A year ago, the hotshot cornerback with the catchy nickname “Honey Badger” was considered a Heisman Trophy front-runner. Instead, he wound up in a two-week drug treatment program run by former NBA player John Lucas and tried to rebuild his image even as it continued to take hits. When police searched Mathieu’s apartment in October, they found a marijuana grinder, a digital scale and 10 bags of high-grade marijuana, seven of which were in another ex-LSU’s teammate’s book bag. “That’s when I decided to go to rehab,” Mathieu said. Since then, Mathieu insists he’s cleaned things up — pointing to the fact he sought out counseling, got a sponsor and has refocused his efforts on making it in the NFL. His height — just under 5-foot-9 — and his troubled history are raising red flags among team decision-makers. A month ago, some analysts thought the list of prob- lems might leave Mathieu undrafted in April. Now his stock is rising again. Sunday, when Mathieu was asked about the last time he used an illegal substance of any kind, he blurted out “October 26th, 2012” — the day after his arrest. Whether he was being honest, misunderstood the question or made a simple slip of the tongue didn’t matter. If he does that again in the 15-minute team interviews, it could wind up costing him money. How did Mathieu get himself into this mess? “Half of it, I think, is that you actually start believing the hype, believing the clippings,” he said, trying to explain what had happened over the last 12 months. “The other half, I think, is that you’re young and you want to have some fun.” Mathieu is far from alone in trying to find redemption in this draft. A handful of defensive backs with character questions rolled through the media room at Sunday’s combine. The list includes names such as: ■ Bacarri Rambo, who failed two failed drug tests at Georgia; ■ Sanders Commings, Rambo’s former college teammate, who was suspended last season after being charged with domestic violence and faced his own battle with marijuana two years earlier; ■ Greg Reid, who was booted off Florida State’s team following last summer’s arrest on marijuana possession charges; ■ And Hawaii’s Mike Edwards, who was kicked off Tennessee’s team following a 2009 arrest for attempted armed robbery. Eventually, he pleaded guilty to reckless endangerment as part of a plea deal. Each of the five, including Mathieu, expected questions about these issues. Yet each used remarkably similar language to explain what happened, making it seem as if the answers were rehearsed. C4 • Monday, February 25, 2013 • • • .. timesfreepress.com .. Breaking News: 423-757-News Mocs seek to make SoCon title theirs alone By Ward Gossett Staff Writer A fruitful Saturday set up a possible championship celebration tonight for the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga wrestling team. The Mocs blasted VMI and SIUEdwardsville on Saturday, losing only one decision in each meet, and can take full possession of the Southern Conference championship by beating Campbell (7-9, 5-1) at 7 tonight in Maclellan Gymnasium. “We’re getting close to things that matter. I think the guys are ■ The UTC wrestling team pits its 6-0 league record against 5-1 Campbell tonight in Maclellan Gym. excited,” UTC coach Heath Eslinger said even before his Mocs impressively climbed to 6-0 in the conference (10-6 overall) with Saturday’s 36-3 and 40-3 victories. That gave them at least a share of the program’s 27th SoCon title. Campbell has been a surprise in conference competition, rebound- ing from a 3-3 inaugural season with losses to UTC, The Citadel and Appalachian State. The Fighting Camels’ 5-1 record this year includes a 25-13 win at The Citadel, which in preseason voting was one of the league favorites. That meet started at 184 pounds and Campbell opened with two pins for a lead the Bulldogs were unable to surmount. The Camels’ conference loss was 16-15 at Appalachian State. They have won their last four SoCon meets. “So much is about matchups,” Eslinger said. One of tonight’s top matchups is at 125 pounds with UTC’s Nick Soto wrestling Eric Montoyo. Both have been in the national rankings. Soto is currently No. 17, while freshman Montoyo is listed among the top 32 in the NCAA tournament ratings. Montoya leads his team with a 28-11 record including 5-0 in the conference. Soto is 23-6 and also unbeaten in the SoCon. “Coach [Joe] Boardwine has done a great job and he has talented kids,” Eslinger said. “He has brought some energy and excitement to that program, which is great for wrestling. We need that.” Eslinger has re-energized the program at UTC. He has a record of 44-28, and Saturday vaulted him past Mark Leen for fourth place in program wins behind Jim Morgan, Andy Nardo and Ethan Reeve. “Any time the final few days determine the conference champion, there is energy,” Eslinger said late last week. “We need to make sure we come out and initiate that energy.” The Mocs did that Saturday. They’ll try again tonight. Contact Ward Gossett at [email protected] Tull • Continued from Page C1 Rayl has been the Mocs’ third end the past two seasons, recording two sacks and five tackles for loss in 2012. UTC also has two freshmen who redshirted last season: Vantrell McMillan and Red Bank’s Keionta Davis. To make it to the NFL, Huesman said, players have to start getting ready physically long before their senior seasons. That’s not a problem for Tull, who is so driven he sometimes even looks like he’s enjoying the mat drills. “He’s gotten to where he’s gotten because of hard work,” Huesman said. Tull said the Mocs’ numerous oh-so-close losses the past two seasons drive him, but so do good thoughts and memories. “I take every single thing at my disposal,” he said. “Football and all the things that go with it are so passionate and emotional that you can take all of your emotions and if you can, bottle them up and use them.” Contact John Frierson at jfrierson@timesfreepress. com or 423-757-6268.

Wiedmer Staff Photo by Connor Choate UTC’s Kasey Tydingco is tagged out by Missouri State catcher Stacia Boeckstiegel during their Frost Classic game Sunday at Frost Stadium. That turned out to be the Lady Mocs’ best scoring chance in an 8-0 loss. Bears pounce on Lady Mocs By Ron Bush Staff Writer even getting full extension. “That’s what you get with today’s bats,” UTC coach Frank Reed said. “The pitch wasn’t that bad of a location, but it goes out on a checked swing. And when I sent Kasey in the second, had we scored and taken the early lead, would it have been a different game? Who knows? “We’ve been able to rebound in some games, but today we misjudged a ball and had a couple of dink balls fall in against us, and the wheels started coming off a little bit.” The Bears added three runs in each of the last two innings, and Pierce and catcher Stacia Boeckstiegel each was 3for-4 with three RBIs while Ali Trickey had a two-run double. Deason pitched the whole game and struck out 10 batters but gave up 11 hits. UTC managed only six, Rieck going 2-for-3. “It doesn’t leave a good taste in your mouth, but it makes you continue to work harder,” Reed said. “We do have a young group and we’re still trying to find the right lineup, but when you get a few good wins you sort of raise the bar a little further, a little further, a little further. “I think it’s just a matter of time for them to believe in themselves and find some consistency, but we’ve still got work to do. Ultimately we’re out to win the [Southern] conference, and we’re not to those games yet.” The Frost Classic softball tournament started out so well for its host team. It didn’t stay that way. The University of Tennessee at Chattanooga followed a 6-1 Saturday night loss to Boston College with an 8-0 loss to Missouri State on Sunday. Coming off a strong finish at Auburn’s tournament a week earlier, the Lady Mocs won two one-run games Friday at Jim Frost Stadium and then recovered from blowing a 4-0 lead Saturday against Miami (Ohio) to earn their sixth victory in a row with a ninth-inning grand slam. But chinks that showed in the Lady Mocs’ pitching and defense in that game became more obvious in their two after that, and the offense went missing also. Sunday they started out well enough, as sophomore pitcher Taylor Deason struck out the first three batters and allowed only one hit through three innings. In the second, Kasey Tydingco reached first for UTC (7-7) on catcher’s interference and took second on a splendid bunt by Stephanie Rieck, and Ninjja Suetsuga singled sharply with two outs but left fielder Lauren Eisenreich made a strong throw that barely nailed Tydingco at the plate. That turned out to be UTC’s best scoring chance, and Missouri State (7-8) took the lead in the top of the fourth. Kerri Cunningham led off with an Lady Flames roll infield hit and stole second, and Stevie Lee University beat visiting Asbury Pierce homered to right field without 19-0 and 23-1 in two five-inning soft- ball games Saturday, as Angie Hughes and Caroline MacAusland combined to pitch a one-hitter before Katie Deems and MacAusland teamed for a two-hitter. MacAusland struck out 11 batters in her four innings. Dezirae Parsons was 8-for-8 with six runs scored in the doubleheader for the Lady Flames (60); she had a home run and four RBIs in game one, when Charlie Wooden homered twice and drove in three and Meghan Macias was 3-for-4 and scored three times. Ana Coscorrosa was 4-for-5 with a homer and five RBIs in game two, while Amanda Lynn was 4-for-4 with three RBIs and three runs, Jennifer Ringle was 3-for-5 with four RBIs and three runs, Laurel Allen was 3-for-4 with three runs and Macias had two hits and three RBIs. Kelley drives in six Sara Kelley hit a grand slam in the first game and matched former Ooltewah High School teammate Bri Shoemake with two hits and two RBIs in the second game as the Carson-Newman softball team won 7-3 and 9-1 over Concord on Saturday. Freshman Kaitie Sims improved her pitching record to 7-0 in the opener, and fellow Baylor alumna Braleigh Angel was 2-for-3 and scored twice in game two, when Chattanooga State transfer Cassie Lyons got the pitching win.

Mustangs ride confidence to semis By Gene Henley Staff Writer There haven’t been any magic formulas during Walker Valley’s recent run of boys’ basketball success. Two necessary ingredients have been prevalent, though: confidence and a little luck. The Mustangs enter the Region 3-AAA semifinals Tuesday having won four straight games and eight of their last 10. They were seeded fourth going into the District 5-AAA tournament but claimed that championship last week with a victory over county rival Bradley Central after edging Ooltewah 62-59 when senior guard Caio Hysinger banked in a 3-point heave from midcourt at the buzzer. “To be honest, I really don’t know what it is,” Walker Valley coach Bob Williams said. “We’re just clicking at the right time, which is what you want to have happen. We know that on Tuesday, we’re going to be facing a good Ooltewah team that rebounds the ball very well, so we’re going to have to play well again to win.” District 5-AAA swept the region quarterfinals, with Ooltewah and Cleveland claiming road wins while Walker Valley and Bradley held serve at home. The Tuesday games are rematches of the district semifinals on Feb. 16. “I just think that top to bottom, we’re a pretty good district,” Williams said. “For Ooltewah to go into White County and get a win and for Cleveland to go to Cumberland [County] and win are huge for us.” District 5-A boys also swept region quarterfinals with wins for Boyd-Buchanan, Grace Academy, Arts & Sciences and Silverdale Baptist Academy. In Region 4-AA, the girls’ teams from District 8 swept, and their semifinals and finals will be held at Cookeville High School instead of Sequatchie County. Bledsoe County’s boys were the only District 7 team to win, yet that tournament will still be held in Dunlap. Contact Gene Henley at ghenley@ timesfreepress.com or 423-757-6311.

I spent years in speech therapy and had to wear large hearing aids all the time. I remember coming home from school crying to my parents that I did not want to go back the next day, but every time I would, they would wipe my tears and tell me the next day would be better. They pushed me back time and time and taught me to try my hardest at everything.” Later, she wrote: “At some point in elementary school I realized something. My peers could say whatever they wanted to about my disability, but if I worked hard enough, I could be better than them at something — my father played in the NBA for 11 years and he passed some of that athleticism onto my siblings and me.” It would be great to say that the rest was history, that Catchings’ outrageous basketball skills instantly made her as popular as Coca-Cola with her peers, that a smile has been frozen on her face from the seventh grade forward. But real life doesn’t work that way. About the time her athletic talents began to blossom, her parents divorced, forcing Catchings to move from Chicago to Texas to live with her mother. Yet through it all, she not only pressed on with sports but also held tight to her faith, determined to see life’s bright and hopeful side. “Having Christ in my life is truly who I am,” she said. “When I was young, my parents would say, ‘If you don’t go to church, you can’t do anything [outside the home] the rest of the week.’ So I was exposed to Christ at an early age. “But when I got to Tennessee I started going to Bible study on campus. Coming to the Lord is certainly what’s drawn me to events like the FCA banquet.” She is drawn to success like almost no one in the history of basketball — man or woman — capturing not only every major on-court honor and trophy imaginable but also the Dawn Staley Community Leadership Award for her charity’s work. The Associated Press Indiana Fever forward Tamika Catchings holds up the trophy after they defeated the Minnesota Lynx to clinch their first WNBA championship. And now that she was the WNBA Finals MVP as the Indiana Fever just won the franchise’s first title this past season, there’s no reason to believe she’s necessarily near the end of her athletic accomplishments. Especially since she just returned from China, where she didn’t win a title but did earn some pretty good coin. “The basketball’s not that bad, and the money’s pretty good,” said Catchings, who made sure to return to the States in time to see UT hoist Pat Summitt’s banner to the Thompson-Boling Arena rafters in late January. She’s also still having a pretty good time playing, noting, “I’ve still got that passion. We’re still pioneers in the WNBA.” In a sense, as we learned again this weekend with Danica Patrick’s accomplishments at Daytona, all women in sports remain pioneers. Some just overcome more obstacles along the way than others. Or as Catchings blogged last fall: “I don’t think of my hearing loss as a disability anymore. I hope that my story can help inspire tomorrow’s all-stars in sports, business and philanthropy to really go out and ‘Catch’ their stars.” Contact Mark Wiedmer at [email protected] News From Across 12 Counties Every day, every week in the... ... . timesfreepress.com Mocs still fight COLLEGE BASKETBALL REPORT MEN’S TOP 25 1.

Taber Spani added 14 points for the Lady Vols, while Bashaara Graves had 11. Quistelle Williams led Arkansas, which has lost seven of its nine games to ranked teams, with 15 points. “I think over a period of time, the moral victories that you get, you’d like to think that your kids absorb that and that they grow and continue to improve,” Arkansas coach Tom Collen said. “But the reality of the season is when you get down to the point where you’re in the last week of the regular season, it’s pretty hard to keep fighting through when all you’re coming up with are moral victories.” The Lady Vols, who shot just 26.9 percent in the first half, came out in the second with a point to prove. While the first half didn’t go as planned, they took control early in the second half.

The new Mocs are 12-17 overall and 7-9 in the SoCon, and multiple freshmen have been key contributors. One win with two regular-season games left — at Western Carolina and then Appalachian State — eliminates the possibility of a second straight 20-loss season, counting the league tournament. “With all the things we’ve been through, we surpassed last year’s win total with this bunch,” coach John Shulman said Sunday. “We’re not done yet.” Although 20-win seasons have been more of a Mocs standard through the years than avoiding 20-loss seasons, this bunch has positive objectives remaining. They’re not even completely out of the race for the fourth bye in the conference tournament. The odds are long, but it could happen if four games play out exactly as needed. It starts with UTC beating Western Carolina and Appalachian State defeating Samford this Thursday. Then on Saturday, the Mocs beating App State and WCU beating Samford would land all four teams with 9-9 SoCon records. UTC would own a 5-1 record against the rest of the group, giving it the final first-round bye. Yet if one of the two nonMocs games go in the other direction, UTC will be playing on the first day in Asheville, N.C. “I figured it out this morning, but I try to not bring up seeds or byes,” said Shulman, whose young team pulled out a 72-68 win over North Division champion Elon on Saturday. “Winning the game wasn’t the goal for us last night. Getting out of our comfort zone and playing harder than Elon and helping each other were the goals, and we wound up with more points than they did.” Elon entered having won 11 of its last 12 games and boasting on its official website that it was the North Division champion.

Arkansas did close back to within 51-50 on a jumper by Sarah Watkins with 3:32 remaining, but Simmons and Spani hit shots in the closing minute — to go along with made free throws — to close out the win. Tennessee made 17 of 22 free throws, while the Razorbacks hit just 2 of 4. Tennessee led by as many as seven midway through the first half, taking a 14-7 lead after a putback by Simmons finished a 7-0 run. Arkansas, however, answered with a stunning 21-5 spurt to close out the half — bookmarking 100 and 9-0 runs around a brief reprieve for the Lady Vols. The latter run closed out the first half for the Razorbacks, who took a 28-19 halftime lead when Watkins connected on a baseline jumper as the buzzer sounded. “We just played defense, basically,” Williams said. “Everybody on our team is a great defensive player.” Staff Photo by Jay Bailey UTC freshman Eric Robertson jumps for a layup during the Mocs’ upset victory over Southern Conference North Division winner Elon on Saturday in McKenzie Arena. “ ” Playing harder than Elon and helping each other were the goals, and we wound up with more points than they did. — UTC coach John Shulman without leading scorer Lucas Troutman — who warmed up — because to a sore ankle. The Mocs didn’t care about Troutman. They had to recover from a historic whipping Thursday when UNC Greensboro won 9468 by hitting 20 of 36 3-point attempts with Nicholas Paulos hitting 10 of 12 long-range shotts. The Mocs did not practice Friday. They held meetings in McKenzie Arena, then gathered again for dinner at the Shulman residence. “Like I said Thursday, we can’t dwell on the loss,” junior forward Zaccheus Mason after Saturday’s game. “We had to move forward. We did a good job of focusing on the task and coming out on top.” The task changed once again this season, at least on the defensive side. For the time this season, and perhaps his career, Shulman never screamed, “Build a wall!” when the Mocs played defense. And he never called for the trapping defense that spurred some recent success.

She’s just playing at a high level right now. “I do think a big strength of ours is our bench and our depth. We’ve had people out for a game or two and other people have stepped up.

Dewart got the award in December and was the player of the month. Since then, no Lady Moc has been honored, despite the fact UTC had won 13 straight games (and Dewart had three straight double-doubles) when last week’s award was announced last Tuesday. In the 2009-10 season, when UTC last won the SoCon regular-season and tournament titles, the Lady Mocs had a total of six players of the week awards. Last week’s award went to Davidson’s Sophia Aleksandravicius, the 6-foot-5 forward who was the coaches’ player of the year last season. Aleksandravicius has been the player of the week three times this season as the Wildcats (18-9, 15-2) have been either tied with UTC or in second place in the standings. Seven players have led UTC in scoring in games this season. Dewart, who is third in the SoCon with 15.7 points per game, has been the team’s top scorer 13 times, with nine games of at least 20 points. Three Lady Mocs are among the top 24 in the league in scoring, and three are among the top 21 in rebounding. “There’s been a lot of games where we had multiple people in double figures,” said senior Kayla Christopher, who averages 11.9 points and 3.1 assists per game. “It can be anybody any given day.” Contact John Frierson at [email protected] or 423-757-6268.

Breaking News: 423-757-News Speedway lets close fans move The Associated Press A few favorites foiled fast By Dan Gelston The Associated Press DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. — Tony Stewart grabbed his tools and banged away on the No. 14 for do-it-yourself repairs. With one big wreck, the sentimental favorite to win the Daytona 500 turned into a handyman. He had some star-power company in the garage Sunday. Kevin Harvick, the driver to beat in Speedweeks, had his bid at a second Daytona 500 win end in the same crash, and Matt Kenseth, Kyle Busch and Carl Edwards also ran into trouble. Harvick and Stewart were collected in an early crash that knocked out several top contenders, shaking up Tony NASCAR’s opener, and Stewart paving the way for underfunded cars driven by Regan Smith and Michael McDowell to finish in the top 10. Harvick, Busch and Stewart all won secondary Daytona races during Speedweeks. Just not the Daytona 500. “If I didn’t tell you I was heartbroken and disappointed, I’d be lying to you,” Stewart said. Stewart made it 0-for-15 in the Daytona 500 after another failed effort in a strong car. In 17 seasons spanning NASCAR and IndyCar, Stewart has been able to cross most everything off his to-do list. He still has a big checkered flag to chase at Daytona. Stewart eventually returned to the track — 82 laps back. He finished 41st; Harvick was 42nd. The wreck ended Harvick’s attempt to become the first in NASCAR history to win the exhibition Sprint Unlimited, a twin qualifying race and the Daytona 500 in the same Speedweeks. “It was just one of those deals,” he said. Harvick stripped his firesuit down to his waist and rode off in a golf cart, a more solemn ride than his two trips to Victory Lane in the previous eight days. Harvick had dominated in Speedweeks as the prelude to his final season driving a Richard Childress Chevrolet. This time, his battered No. 29 couldn’t be saved. The early nine-car wreck started when Kasey Kahne let off the gas to slow as they neared the first turn at Daytona International Speedway. Kyle Busch tried to do the same but couldn’t avoid contact. Busch sent Kahne spinning across the track. Juan Pablo Montoya, 2010 race winner Jamie McMurray and Brad Keselowski also were involved. So were Kurt Busch and Casey Mears. Montoya is a former Indianapolis 500 winner. Busch won the 2004 Cup title. The accident came a day after a horrific wreck in a second-tier NASCAR series race hurled chunks of debris, including a heavy tire, into the stands and injured nearly 30 people. The next nine-car wreck came 105 laps later and took out Edwards. Edwards said his team was ready to come back and dominate at Phoenix after a miserable month at Daytona. Joe Gibbs Racing also needs to rebound after a 1-2-3 run of Kenseth, Denny Hamlin and Kyle Busch was quickly down to just Hamlin. Kenseth’s smoky No. 20 hit pit road with engine woes and Busch’s race soon ended with a blown engine. Busch was furious as he walked alone back to his hauler. Hamlin failed to keep his fast pace and fell back to 14th. “All of the guys at JGR built an awesome piece,” said Busch, who won the second duel of Speedweeks. “But we’ve got to have engines that last.” Kenseth led a race-high 86 laps and left with the lead after 149 laps. “You can’t drop out and win championships,” he said. “We had all the right things; we just didn’t make it to the end.” Hamlin didn’t have an engine issue; he had a former teammate issue. Hamlin took a shot at former JGR driver Joey Logano, who moved on to Penske Racing. Hamlin tweeted, “(at) keselowski sorry I couldn’t get close to you cuz your genius teammate was too busy messing up the inside line 1 move at a time.” Keselowski, the reigning Sprint Cup champion, escaped the first wreck that knocked out the heavy favorites and dodged danger again in Edwards’ crash. He led the race with 20 laps left but smacked into some debris on the speedway and slowed down just enough to finish fourth. “We wrecked about three times today and still had a shot at the win,” Keselowski said. “We just came up short.” Stewart, who won the crash-marred Nationwide race Saturday, never got the chance to at least be in the hunt.

DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. — Fans feeling unsafe after the terrifying crash at Daytona International Speedway a day earlier were able to change seats for NASCAR’s biggest race Sunday. Workers successfully repaired a section of fence — 54 feet wide and 22 feet high — that was shredded Saturday when Kyle Larson’s car went airborne on the final lap of a second-tier race and crashed through the barrier that separates cars from fans. Large pieces of debris, including a tire, sprayed into the upper and lower sections of the stands. The crash the day before the Daytona 500 injured more than 30 people, raising more questions about fan safety at race tracks. Halifax Health spokesman Byron Cogdell said seven people with crash-related injuries remained hospitalized in Daytona Beach in stable condition. The six people brought to a different Halifax hospital in Port Orange with crashrelated injuries all had been discharged, Cogdell said. A spokeswoman at Florida Memorial Medical Center would not release information on the patients brought to that hospital. Track president Joie Chitwood said if any fans were uncomfortable with their upclose seating for the Daytona 500, officials would work to move them. Larry Spencer of Nanticoke, Pa., said he wasn’t sure if he wants to sit that low again after his 15-yearold brother, Derrick, needed three stitches in his cheek after being hit by metal debris flying from Saturday’s crash. A day after sitting close to the fence, they returned with tickets dozens of rows farther away from the track. “I thought it was just neat Shoe Store 706-866-5935 to see the cars going by that close,” Spencer said. “After yesterday, though, I definitely will reconsider sitting lower ever again.” The tire that flew into the stands landed a couple of rows above where they had been standing. After the crash, looking around at the people seriously injured, Spencer said he decided to take his brother to a hospital himself so speedway crews and paramedics could focus on the people who needed more help. “The only way to describe it was like a bomb went off, and the car pretty much exploded,” Spencer said. Track workers finished repairs about 2 a.m. Sunday, having installed a new fence post, new metal meshing and part of the concrete wall. Officials decided not to rebuild the collapsed crossover gate, which allows fans to travel between the stands and the infield before races. Daytona has a grandstand remodel planned. Chitwood said the injuries could prompt a redesign that might include sturdier fences or stands farther away from the on-track action. “It’s tough to connect the two right now in terms of a potential redevelopment and what occurred,” Chitwood said. “We were prepared yesterday, had emergency medical respond. As we learn from this, you bet: If there are things that we can incorporate into the future, whether it’s the current property now or any other redevelopment, we will. “The key is sitting down with NASCAR, finding out the things that happened and how we deal with them.” NEW TECHNOLOGY FOR Underground Pipe Solutions We repair your existing underground drain lines with little or no digging.

Dale Earnhardt Jr., whose father was killed in this race 12 years ago, was involved in Saturday’s accident but refocused and finished second to Johnson, a Hendrick Motorsports teammate. “Me personally, I was just really waiting to get the news on how everybody was, how all the fans were overnight, just hoping that things were going to improve,” Earnhardt said, adding that he “wasn’t really ready to proceed until you had some confirmation that things were looking more positive.” The race itself, the debut for NASCAR’s new Gen-6 car, was quite similar to all the other Cup races during Speedweeks in that the cars seemed to line up in a single-file parade along the top groove of the track. It made the 55th running of the Daytona 500 relatively uneventful. Mark Martin was third in a Michael Waltrip Racing Toyota. Defending Cup champion Brad Keselowski overcame two accidents and wound up fourth in Penske Racing’s new Ford. Ryan Newman was fifth in a Chevy for Stewart-Haas Racing and was followed by Roush-Fenway Racing’s Greg Biffle, who was second on the last lap but was shuffled back with Patrick to finish sixth. Regan Smith was seventh for Phoenix Racing, and Patrick, Michael McDowell and JJ Yeley rounded out the top 10. When the race was on the line, Johnson took off. The driver known as “Five-Time” raced past Keselowski on the final restart and pulled out to a sizable lead that nobody challenged in the final six laps. Johnson and Keselowski went down to the wire last season in their race for the Sprint Cup title, with Johnson faltering in the final two races as Keselowski won his first Cup championship. Although it was a bit of an upset that stuck with Johnson into the offseason, he said it gave him no extra motivation when he found himself racing with Keselowski late Sunday for the Daytona 500. “As far as racing with Brad out there, you really lose sight of who is in what car,” Johnson said. “It’s just somebody between you and the trophy.

When we were sitting discussing things before the season started, we felt good about the 500,” Johnson said, “but we’re really excited for everything after the 500. I think it’s going to be a very strong year for us.” Patrick is hoping for her own success after a historymaking race. The first woman to win a Cup race pole, Patrick also became the first woman to lead the race. She ran inside the top 10 almost the entire race, kept pace with the field and never panicked on the track. Her only mistakes were on pit road, where she got beat on the race back to the track, and on the final lap, when she was running third but got snookered by the veterans and faded to eighth. That’s going to stick with her for some time. “I would imagine pretty much anyone would be kicking themselves about what they coulda, shoulda have done to give themselves an opportunity to win,” she said. “I think that’s what I was feeling today, was uncertainty as to how I was going to accomplish that.” There were several multicar crashes, but no one was hurt and none of them approached the magnitude of the wreck that injured more than two dozen fans in the grandstand at the end of the second-tier Nationwide Series race on the same track a day earlier. Daytona International Speedway workers were up until 2 a.m repairing the fence that was damaged in the accident.

Their father gave me this explanation: “They are uncomfortable with the way you rub their shoulders and necks.” These girls and both parents have misinterpreted my innocent expressions of affection, which haven’t changed since the girls were little. The only change is in their perception of my actions. I am devastated. I asked twice to meet with these family members to discuss their concerns. It has been three months; no meeting time has been offered. There has been no contact, and neither girl has called me for any reason this year. I can’t just stop loving those with whom I have forged a 20-year bond of affection. How can this rupture be repaired? — GRIEVING GRANDDAD Dear Abby Written by Jeanne Phillips DEAR GRIEVING GRANDDAD: Clearly, there is a need for some professional mediation here, provided your granddaughters and their parents are willing.

Universal Press Syndicate HEALTH Exercise and stretching halt recurrence of low back pain DEAR DOCTOR K: Every few months I throw out my back. Are there any exercises I can do to strengthen my back and prevent this from happening? DEAR READER: Exercise is a great way to prevent repeat episodes of low back pain. The right exercise program will help build strong, flexible muscles that will be less prone Dr. K to injury. Dr. Anthony O u r Komaroff muscles were built to support a life of frequent physical activity — particularly a lot of walking and lifting. But that’s a life few of us have today, so our muscles tend to get weak and stiff. Weak muscles — particularly weak back and abdominal muscles — cause or worsen many cases of low back pain. Stretching and strengthening both your back and abdominal muscles can help prevent a recurrence of the problem. You’ll want to focus on exercises that strengthen and stretch the muscles that support your spine. Strong abdominal or flexor muscles help people maintain an upright posture. So do strong extensor muscles, which run up and down the full length of the back. They help maintain the alignment of the vertebrae, the bones of your spine. In addition, two long muscles that run from the lower vertebrae to the hips and the buttock muscles help support the back during walking, standing and sitting. Stretching is equally important for a person plagued by back problems. Supple, well-stretched muscles are less prone to injury. Indeed, shorter, less-flexible muscle and connective tissues restrict joint mobility and increase the likelihood of sprains and strains. Stretch regularly but gently. Don’t bounce, as that can cause injury. Start by holding the stretch for a short time and gradually build up to roughly 30-second stretches over time. In addition to exercises that increase the strength and flexibility of your lower back, you should engage in regular aerobic exercise. It has many benefits for general health and also helps prevent back pain. Choose activities that are low in risk and high in benefit for your back. Swimming, walking and bicycling lead the list. Talk to your doctor about working with a physical therapist. He or she can help design a safe and effective exercise program for you. And remember the golden rule about any exercise program: Stop if it becomes painful. Exercise is meant to help, not hurt. Element of surprise Ancient wax technique gains new fans By Jennifer Forker The Associated Press Denver artist Jamie Lang sold nearly all of his small, handmade tiles during a recent crafts show, and he can only guess the reasons why. The adobe tiles are minimally decorated — with a red bicycle or a solitary house — and covered with a thin, smooth layer of wax. “It was new, something different,” Lang says after the show in Boulder, Colo., while other artists pack up their wares to take home. Lang works in encaustic, an ancient medium of pigment and hot wax that’s resurging in popularity. The wax technique dates to at least the first century AD, according to Lissa Rankin in her book “Encaustic Art” (Watson-Guptill, 2010). Its popularity waned during the Middle Ages and Renaissance with the rise of tempera paints, but was revived during the mid-18th century, says Rankin. Painters Paul Gauguin and Georges Seurat were among those experimenting with it. In the 20th century, encaustic was featured in painter Jasper Johns’ work, including his iconic “Flag.” Encaustic involves heating beeswax and damar resin, often with added color, and either pouring or painting the mixture onto a surface. The tree resin helps harden and stabilize the wax. An encaustic surface can be twodimensional, such as wood or paper, or 3-D. Daniella Woolf, 65, an artist in Santa Cruz, Calif., says she discovered encaustic a decade ago and “completely fell in love with it.” Its versatility makes it the “glue” that holds disparate mediums together, says Woolf, author of “The Encaustic Studio.” “I spent a lifetime working in different media. I now can use any of those media by using the wax to pull it all together,” Woolf says. Encaustic can be unpredictable and unwieldy, but that Photo by The Associated Press Denver artist Jamie Lang painted the wax medium encaustic over an image transfer onto a 6-inch-by-6inch tile piece. Lang uses encaustic to give a nostalgic look to the images on his handmade, adobe tiles. For “Serviette,” California artist Daniella Woolf adhered various papers, including paper napkins and die-cut shapes, with the wax medium encaustic. The art technique incorporates hot wax with colored pigments and a host of other possible elements, including found objects. adds an element of surprise and mystique to the results. The technique can be combined with anything from oil and watercolor paints to chalk, ink, photo transfers and fabric — even plaster and three-dimension- al objects. Colors are mixed into or suspended in the wax, while objects are imbedded. The encaustic process is not for the faint of heart. There are some basic safety precautions. The wax medium becomes molten hot when it’s ready to use, and if its temperature rises above 200 degrees Fahrenheit, the fumes become toxic. For this reason, Lang, Woolf and Rankin work in well-ventilated studios. Each recommends having open windows and a fan near the workspace. “Once (the beeswax and resin) melts down ... and cools, it’s past (having) any kind of the toxic element to it,” says Lang. Additionally, because encaustic involves fusing one layer of wax on top of one or more other layers, a heat source is needed. Woolf uses an open-flame torch; heat guns and even some irons — specific to the task, not clothes irons — also work. Woolf recommends experimenting to find the equipment that works best. Her book lists basic supplies, as does Rankin’s. “Used carefully, encaustic is safe, natural, luminous, versatile, and a great way to either start painting or open up your creativity if you’re an experienced artist,” says Rankin, of Marin County, Calif. Encaustic paint starter kits — the color is pre-mixed with the wax and resin — are available online. Woolf and Lang buy their paint supplies from R&F Handmade Paints’ online store. Woolf also teaches workshops for the Kingston, N.Y., paint manufacturer. While Lang is self-taught — using Rankin’s book — he recommends taking a class to learn encaustic technique. Woolf agrees. “It seems very complicated, but it is really quite simple,” she promises. “Once you learn the basics, it’s incredibly forgiving.” Book gives sock creatures a bizarre twist Akron Beacon Journal Stupid Sock Creatures are what result when imagination runs wild. Crazy, no-holds-barred wild. Artist John Murphy started making little stuffed monsters called Stupid Creatures back in 2003 as an outlet for his off- the-wall ingenuity and a way to pay his bills. He eventually wrote a how-to book on making lovably hideous creatures from socks, and now he’s back with a follow-up, “Return of the Stupid Sock Creatures: Evolutions, Mutations, and Other Creations.” This time he enlisted guest designers ranging in age from adolescents to adults, who share their instructions for making wacky beasts that span all manner of bug-eyed, snaggle-toothed, abominably endearing weirdness. Murphy’s entertaining text makes the little stuffed beings all the more appealing. Georgia libraries team up with Atlanta Center for Puppetry Arts He covers the basics of creature-making in a nonintimidating style, so budding sock artists will be equipped to take on the projects in the book or branch out with their own brand of eccentricity. “Return of the Stupid Sock Creatures” is $17.95 in softcover.

Money can be a source of Billy Graham great blessing — but (as you’ve discovered) it also can be a source of great conflict, if we let it. The Bible tells us to get our priorities right. When things become more important to us than God ... when our desire to impress others is greater than our desire to plea ... when we look to money instead of God for our security — then our priorities are wrong and our lives get out of balance. Begin by asking Christ to be the center of your lives, and learn to seek his will. The Bible also urges us . timesfreepress.com ... Breaking News: 423-757-News to seek God’s wisdom when we face problems. Ask him to help you set a budget — and stick to it. Ask him also to help you work together on ways to economize. When disagreements come, turn to God in prayer and seek his will. Make it your goal to get out of debt — and agree together on how best to reach it. Finally, learn to delay purchases, and to be satisfied with less. Let the Bible’s words be your guide: “Keep your lives free from the love of money and be content with what you have, because God has said, ‘Never will I leave you; never will I forsake you’” (Hebrews 13:5).

It debuted to a smaller audience than “Emily Owens, M.D.,” which it replaced. Curiously, the CW and “Cult” may be after a different measurement of success, or at least buzz. I noticed that “Cult” was available online nearly a week before it launched on the network. Just how this translates into total viewers (or pleases advertisers) remains a mystery. Not even ratings-dominant CBS remains immune to the winter blues. The makers of “The Job” may have had the best intentions, but the show, about ordinary folks competing for mere employment, struck many viewers as demeaning and depressing. I think I used the word “grovel” in my review. It was canceled after two airings and replaced with additional helpings of “Undercover Boss.” Hope does spring eternal, however. CBS debuts its newest series, “Golden Boy,” Tuesday night. TONIGHT’S HIGHLIGHTS ■ A new smarty-pants intern (Brian Klugman) irks Brennan on “Bones” (8 p.m., Fox, TV-14). ■ New evidence rattles Kiera on “Continuum” (8 EPB BATTL LAFAY CLEVE RINGD DALTN CHATT Is this the winter of our discontent?

It’s easy to make fun of NBC for still airing the pathetic “Biggest Loser,” but that sad series had nearly twice as many viewers as “Deception” last Monday night. ABC’s “Castle” had three times as many viewers. Heck, “Pawn Stars” on History attracted almost 2 million more folks than “Deception.” Viewers had a sneak preview of NBC’s “1600 Penn” back in December, and they didn’t like what they saw. NBC’s new Thursday night medical mystery “Do No Harm” arrived all but dead on arrival, and was canceled after two airings. Over on ABC, the preposterous conspiracy thriller “Zero Hour” has had a similarly meager audience, but has not been canceled yet. I found the CW’s new head-scratcher “Cult” deliriously gimmicky and fun. It’s a show that, once you watch it, cries out to be watched a second time, just to see all the clues you missed. Unfortunately for “Cult,” not enough people are watching 6 PM 6:30 NBC staggers along with no help in sight LATE NIGHT ■ Donnie Wahlberg is scheduled on “The Daily Show With Jon Stewart” (11 p.m., Comedy Central). ■ Zooey Deschanel, Ben McKenzie and Japandroids appear on “Conan” (11 p.m., TBS). ■ Quvenzhane Wallis, Mary Lynn Rajskub, Fortune Feimster and T.J.

Contact Kevin McDonough at [email protected]. c. United Feature Syndicate MONDAY EVENING 7:30 8 PM 8:30 9 PM This winter, NBC has learned the hard way just how fleeting victory can be. The network had its best fall in years. The new prime-time lineup got a welcome push from the Summer Olympics in London. The post-apocalyptic drama “Revolution” was a surprise hit after “The Voice,” the singing contest that has turned into NBC’s main entertainment draw. NFL games reigned supreme on Sundays. Mired in fourth place for years, NBC suddenly found itself No. 1 — a position it hadn’t regularly seen in nearly a decade. Entertainment chief Bob Greenblatt, a former producer and Showtime boss hailed as the mastermind of NBC’s turnaround, was confident enough to take a swipe at a rival network chief during a presentation to reporters last month. He exulted that in re-engineering NBC, he was following the old mantra of 1980s programming legend Grant Tinker: “First, be best; then, be first.” And then, as these winter weeks have dragged on, the victory pedestal has come crashing down. The Broadway drama “Smash” — Greenblatt’s pet project — bombed on its return, with low ratings that shocked even TV veterans.

Football is gone until fall, and “The Voice” and “Revolution” won’t be back until next month. Even “30 Rock” — the sitcom that drew critical raves but not high ratings — wrapped up its run. Things have sunk so low that for the first time ever, NBC finished the February “sweeps” period — which local stations use to help determine ad rates — in fifth place, behind CBS, Fox, ABC and Spanish-language Univision. Its toprated entertainment show is “The Biggest Loser” — at No. 35. “I hate to say it, but they’re in trouble,” says Gary Carr, senior vice president at the media agency TargetCast. “Nothing’s really held. Go night by night, and they don’t really have anything” that’s performing well. NBC executives declined to comment on the record for this story. In fairness, no broadcaster has been on a tear this season. The fall lineups have yet to produce any runaway hits, and every network except CBS is down among total viewers compared with last year. Fox has shrunk a whopping 23 percent, due largely to poorerthan-expected showings for its singing shows “The X Factor” and “American Idol.” 10 PM 10:30 11 PM 11:30 Deception "Stay With Me" Eyewitness (:35)Tonight 'TV14' (N) News Show (N) Diff'rent Stroke Diff'rent Stroke Leave Beaver Leave Beaver Music City Tonight Country Music Route 66 Da Vinci's Inquest Good Dog GRR TV Real Life 101 Harveytoons Ride Guide Comp.Angler Wildfly Fishing Wildfly Fishing Car Garage S.

The bread that didn’t disappear faster than I could say “inhale.” The peanut butter — oh, the luxury of peanut butter that was right there in its jar when I needed it. It finally started to sink in: I’m an empty nester now. A family cook with no family to feed. But I am still a cook, someone who needs — even craves — time in the kitchen. So how do I adjust to this new life? How do I become a serves-two cook in a servessix world? I needed advice. So I turned to Ben and Karen Barker, who downsized a lot more than their own kitchen last year. They closed their award-winning restaurant, the Magnolia Grill in Durham, so they could spend more time with their grown sons and grandchildren. “It’s mundane on the surface, but dramatically wonderful,” Ben says. They still cook every day, Karen insists. A winner of the James Beard Foundation’s award for the nation’s best pastry chef, she doesn’t bake much these days. But she’ll often make a batch of pizza dough so she and Ben can split a small pizza with a salad a couple of times a week. And Ben, who once ran his restaurant’s walk-in refrigerator as “a no-waste facility,” has learned to go to the Carrboro Farmers Market in North Carolina and only come back with a couple of zucchini or a single bunch of kale. “We think in two- to three-day clips,” Karen says. “It’s planned, but it leaves a little room for spontaneity.” LEARNING TO SHOP It’s difficult to know for sure how many of us cooking for two are empty nesters who have to adjust after cooking for families. But it’s a good bet that the 76 million members of the baby boom generation, who are now between 52 and 65, are having an effect. Roots • Continued from Page D1 and continuing on the first Thursday of each month, four bands, including one local act and three regional touring acts, will perform. The recorded show will be edited into four segments with each shown consecutively on WTCI-TV 45 at 9 p.m. each Thursday beginning in April. The Chattanooga Times Free Press is one of the sponsors of Scenic City Roots. The series is being produced by Heng Dai Media out of Nashville, which also produces the Music City Roots series from The Loveless Cafe in Nashville and the Bluegrass Underground series from Cumberland Caverns in McMinnville, Tenn. Co-executive producer Todd Mayo says adding Chattanooga to his dream of creating a “Tennessee Music Trail” was an easy choice. “It’s a cool place. A hip place with natural beauty and an arts culture,” he says. “Every time we came to Chattanooga we found a McClatchy Newspapers That age group is expected to control 52 percent of the $706 billion spent on groceries by 2015. And you can bet many in our trendsetting generation won’t settle for two-for-one specials on Lean Cuisine. Learning to shop is the first step, says Linda Gassenheimer. A longtime columnist for The Miami Herald, Gassenheimer writes the Quick Fix for 2 column that runs each week in many newspapers. Gassenheimer says she never hesitates to ask for prepackaged meats or vegetables to be cut down at the supermarket. “If they won’t do it, I go to another market,” she declares. While Gassenheimer went through downsizing when her sons left home, she actually came to smallserving cooking before they left, as an offshoot of a project she did on fast cooking. If you want to cook faster, she learned, it’s easier if you work with smaller amounts. Still, cutting recipes in half doesn’t always mean just halving all the ingredients or even the cooking time. One chicken breast cooks in the same amount of time as two, for example. Or if you cook a smaller roast, you’ll still need enough liquid to braise it. “People have to think about cookware. The pan needs to be right for the size of the meat you’re putting in reason to come back. Every time we left we were already planning our next trip.” The evening will be “live television about a live musical variety show,” he says. Grammy-Award winning singer/songwriter Jim Lauderdale will serve as the musical host for the show and will introduce the acts. At the end of each show, he will be joined by all of the musicians on stage for a Scenic City Jam. Nashville veteran disc jockey and television host Keith Bilbrey, who worked with the Grand Ole Opry, Ralph Emery and others, will be the announcer and will read the commercials each month. He will also provide banter with journalist/author Craig Havighurst, who will handle on-air band interviews. Ji m Yo c k e y, w h o s e resume includes directing Bob Hope specials in addition to numerous festivals and live music shows, will direct. “The acts will change each week and will always be based on quality, but those guys will be there every week,” Mayo says. He and a crew of 20 will bring the production truck .. timesfreepress.com .. Breaking News: 423-757-News SHOPPING FOR 2 ■ Keep mini bottles of wine or single-serve boxes of apple juice on hand for making marinades, sauces and dressings. ■ Prowl grocery store salad bars so you can buy small amounts of whole grains and vegetables. ■ Most supermarkets will cut down packaged meats and produce if you ask. Or, shop a farmers market where you can buy what you need. ■ Use plastic ice cube trays or mini muffin pans for freezing unused portions of things, like the other half of the it.” She’s found that a 7-inch sauté pan or omelet pan, for instance, is perfect for two people. Even if you cook in smaller amounts, you’re still likely to have leftovers, says Gassenheimer. And you should: A small batch of soup tucked in the freezer is just as welcome as a big batch when you’re busy. CREATIVE LEFTOVERS Her advice: “Don’t serve leftovers as leftovers — that’s boring. Create another dish.” Use extra pasta in a gratin or macaroni and cheese. Or use extra linguine in a stirfry, like lo mein. Leftover “ We have smaller venues, but a bigger energy. When people play here, they feel this real connection to the audience and this energy. We are working on attracting the artist who wants to play to sold-out crowds of 2,000 rather than to a half-filled 5,000-seat room. ” — Dave Santucci, Chattanooga Convention and Visitors Bureau and four cameras to do the show but everything else is already in place at Track 29, he says. “It is a real plug-and-play situation from a technical, logistics and infrastructure situation at Track 29. It is just perfect. It is an ideally suited space for what we do.” Monica Kinsey, co-owner and general manager of Track 29, says the series is good publicity for the 1,800seat venue on the campus of the Chattanooga Choo Choo, canned beans or broth. ■ Buy items that are individually frozen (sometimes labeled IQF) so you can pull out a single piece of chicken or just a few shrimp. ■ Love your freezer. If you make something that serves four, freeze half and use it the next week. ■ Plan ways to use things up: Rinse beans and add them to a salad, mix the rest of a can of coconut milk with broth for cooking rice, spoon some pasta sauce on an English muffin half and top it with cheese for a quick “pizza” to round out a salad dinner. roasted meat can be ground up with a little mayonnaise and horseradish to make a pate to serve on toast with a salad. Karen Barker corrected me when I called her an empty nester. She and Ben have stayed so busy and gotten so involved with friends and family that nothing feels all that empty. But cooking what they want, not what kids or customers dictate, is a new and delightful thing. “To be able to cook at leisure is a dramatically different way to approach it,” says Ben Barker. “The meals have been complete and hardly complex, but really, really satisfying.” but it is better for the city as a whole. “It’s a fantastic opportunity for Chattanooga to be highlighted,” she says. “Chattanooga has its own music culture and this is a chance to show that off and the renovations that have occurred and also the talent pool that is here.” She says church pews will be used for seating on the first few rows, then 300 to 400 chairs will be set out in rows. The stage, which is on rollers and movable, will be lowered for the show to provide a more intimate setting. Intimate venues and enthusiastic crowds are what Santucci says the Chattanooga music scene has to offer over some other cities. “We have smaller venues, but a bigger energy,” he says. “When people play here, they feel this real connection to the audience and this energy. “We are working on attracting the artist who wants to play to sold-out crowds of 2,000 rather than to a half-filled 5,000-seat room.” Contact staff writer Barry Courter at bcourter@ timesfreepress.com or at 423-757-6354. Kidney • Continued from Page D1 Nationally about 95,000 people — about 2,200 in Tennessee, 3,400 in Georgia and 3,600 in Alabama — are waiting for a kidney, according to the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services. On average, 13 a day die, according to the National Kidney Foundation. More than 400,000 people in the U.S. are on dialysis. While people are born with two kidneys — organs that make urine and filter waste from the blood — they can function normally with just one. “We think about greed and narcissism and all the shootings,” says Bruce Manley, a Northland psychologist. “But we forget that there is still a very large number of people who are doing good and decent things for other human beings. This is just an example of that. Then if we look at the role that social media plays, we can start to see why this is happening at this moment.” Renee Dietchman, a Kansas City psychologist, has another theory. “Typically when times are tough, such as in the Great Depression, people want to help,” she says. “If they can’t help financially, maybe they help out by giving more of themselves.” Bultemeier works on the transplant floor at the MidAmerica Heart Institute at St. Luke’s Hospital and is familiar with such cases. “In 2010, I became close to two guys waiting for heart transplants,” she says. “They were both single parents and both close to my age. It just really touched me — more or less broke my heart. I mean, that could be any of us. “I just couldn’t imagine being young and single and a parent and needing an organ to live, you know? And so pretty much that’s when it just was clear as day to me. ... I just believe that God put it on my heart to do this.” Before making her final decision, she did a lot of praying and Internet research. Then she told her mother, Kathy Hood. Hood, of Lee’s Summit, Mo., worried. After all, Bultemeier’s former husband — the father of their daughter, Lexi — had died of a brain Couch • Continued from Page D1 coming to the Tivoli on Thursday. You know from your own experience that comics are rarely fun interviews, but he was hilarious on the phone. If you want a laugh, google Comics in Cars Getting Coffee. It’s an online series Jerry Seinfeld put together, and Regan is featured in one of them. It made me laugh. LISA: Oh, and we can’t forget the Southeast Film Music Symposium. This is a chance to rub elbows with some of the best and brightest film score composers, including Chattanooga’s own George S. Clinton. BARRY: This is a worldclass event with big-time Hollywood film types. If you’ve ever wondered how composers come up with movie soundtracks, this your chance. In addition to Clinton, who will conduct his “Shagadelic Suite” from the Austin Powers films, Don Davis, who wrote the music for all three Matrix films and the animated “Animatrix,” will conduct the Chattanooga Symphony & Opera live while the “The Matrix” plays on the big screen at the Tivoli. The symposium takes place Friday through Sunday. Get event details every Thursday in ChattanoogaNow or online anytime at www.ChattanoogaNow. com.

A retired teacher, she knew a co-worker who waited years for a kidney match. “I know what families go through waiting, and Aimee does, too,” Hood says. “She has come home sometimes in tears. She’s a very compassionate young woman, and I am incredibly proud of her for what she’s done.” After Bultemeier contacted the Midwest Transplant Network in September 2010, it took nine months of interviews, medical tests, mental health screenings, background checks and in-person interviews to make sure she was a good candidate. Nash says donors must not only undergo multiple screenings, they must realize that they’re purposely putting their body at risk to help another person. Bultemeier says she wasn’t nervous. “My only fear was that I wouldn’t be able to do it,” she says. “You know, maybe when they were doing my EKG or my labs or a chest X-ray that they would find something wrong that would disqualify me.” St. Luke’s gave her eight weeks of paid time off to donate and recover. “My boss was amazing and supportive,” she says. “I wish more businesses would do that.” A year and a half after donating, Bultemeier doesn’t know much about the person who received her kidney. “A few months after I donated, about October of 2011, I received a card from my recipient,” she says. “It was very short and sweet. I know it’s a guy. He says he was eternally grateful and he is doing great and he hopes to meet me one day and get to know me.” She wants to meet him and to hear his story. She imagines she might have helped save someone with a wife and children. “It’s hard,” she says in a quavering voice. “I knew going in that I might never meet my recipient. And that’s OK.” Spackling paste doubles as primer Akron Beacon Journal 3M Patch Plus Primer eliminates the need to prime spackled areas before painting. The spackling paste contains tiny particles that create a primer-like film on the surface, unlike other spackling products that can cause a change in paint sheen. The product dries fast and won’t shrink or crack, but it’s as strong as heavyweight spackling, the company says. It comes in a square package that accommodates a 3-inch-wide putty knife. 3M Patch Plus Primer has a suggested retail price of $5.99 and is available at home improvement centers and paint and hardware stores. www.carmike.com EAST RIDGE 18 (423) 855-9652 I-24 at Moore Road (Exit 184) Showtimes for Monday, February 25, 2013 A Good Day To Die Hard IMAX - R•DLP 11:50 2:20 4:50 7:20 9:50 Snitch - PG13•DLP 10:15 11:15 1:00 2:00 3:45 4:45 6:30 7:30 9:15 10:15 Dark Skies - PG13•DLP 2:55 5:20 7:45 10:10 Safe Haven - PG13•DLP 10:50 11:45 1:35 2:35 4:25 5:25 7:15 8:15 10:00 Identity Thief - R•DLP 10:10 11:10 12:55 1:55 3:40 4:40 6:25 7:25 9:10 10:20 A Good Day To Die Hard - R•DLP 11:30 12:30 2:05 3:00 4:35 5:30 7:05 8:00 9:35 10:30 Warm Bodies - PG13•DLP 11:25 2:10 5:00 7:50 10:40 Escape From Planet Earth 3D - PG•DLP 10:05 2:50 7:35 Escape From Planet Earth 2D - PG•DLP 12:25 5:15 9:55 Beautiful Creatures - PG13•DLP 12:40 3:35 4:30 6:35 9:30 10:25 Mama - PG13•DLP 11:40 2:25 5:10 8:10 10:45 Side Effects - R•DLP 11:05 1:45 7:40 Silver Linings Playbook - R•DLP 10:20 1:15 4:10 7:10 10:05 Hansel & Gretel: Witch Hunters 2D - R•DLP 11:55 2:30 5:05 7:55 10:35 Lincoln - PG13•DLP 10:00 1:30 4:55 8:20 ALL DIGITAL PROJECTION 35360009 1-800-DIVORCE Hamilton County, Free Phone Consultation Atty.
