Mule Pulling, Draft
New Law Sponsored
Horse & Mule
By Senator Yager Is
Step in Right Direction Show Set July 23
One of the oldest and most
popular events of the Fentress
To Curb “Pill Mills”
County Fair is scheduled for
An Editorial by Senator Ken Yager
(July 15, 2011) -- On June 14,
Governor Haslam signed
Senate Bill 1258 regulating pain
management clinics into law.
Public Chapter 340, which took
effect July 1, requires the
Tennessee Department of
Health to establish rules to
regulate the operation of “pill
mills.” I introduced this new
law in response to a growing
crisis and in cooperation with
the medical professional groups
to weed out pill mills that do
not adhere to legitimate
dispensing practices. It also
empowers
the
medical
professional organizations to
police its members practicing in
a pain management clinic.
The Governor’s signature
comes not a minute too soon.
Prescription drug abuse has
become the nation’s fastest
growing drug problem.
It
affects men and women, college
grads and high school drop
outs, the rich and the poor. The
most alarming demographic is
that prescription drug addicts
are disproportionately young.
More than 13 per cent of
people ages 18 to 34 seeking
substance abuse treatment were
taking prescription pain pills. In
the South, oxycodone can be
more easily obtained than
heroin! And keep in mind that
Tennessee ranks second in the
U.S. in the number of
prescriptions dispensed. Many
Tennessee pain management
clinics operate according to
medical protocols and deliver
critical services to their patients.
Unfortunately, there are also
some in this industry who are
cash cows for their owners to
get rich without any thought of
the destroyed lives left behind,
as well as, the devastating
impact on family members and
friends.
The new law will
require pain clinics – for the
first time – to obtain an
operating certificate from the
Health. The Department will
establish the rules to oversee
clinic operations. Clinics will be
required to operate under the
supervision of a duly licensed
medical director possessing an
unrestricted medical degree.
No certificate will be issued to
an applicant/owner with a
felony
conviction
or
a
misdemeanor conviction if it is
related to the distribution of
illegal prescription drugs or a
controlled substance. To me
one of the most important
provision is of the new law is
the prohibition of cash
transactions.
The new law
creates a paper trail on all
transactions by prohibiting
cash payments for services
except where a third party payer
will be billed. Public Chapter
340 is a step in the right
direction. Curbing the abuses
in the proliferating prescription
abuse will save lives.
tnAchieves Coming
To Fentress County
With the goal of increasing
the higher education attainment
and retention rate, tnAchieves
seeks to provide every public
high school senior from
Fentress
County
the
opportunity
to
attend
community college with mentor
support.
tnAchieves is a last-dollar
scholarship. This means tuition
cost should no longer be an
obstacle when a student is
deciding to attend college.
51st Annual
Rotary Club
Horse Show
Held July 16
Although the number of
entries were down from last
year, the 51st Jamestown
Rotary Club Horse Show,
held Saturday, July 16 at the
Fentress County Fairgrounds,
was
again
termed
as
successful,with 123 horses
registered.
SEE STORY ON B4-B5
While all public high school
seniors
are
eligible
for
tnAchieves,
the
program
focuses primarily on students
who are the first in their families
to go to college.
tnAchieves applications will
be available to the graduating
Class of 2012 the first week of
school and are due October 14,
2011. Students should visit
their guidance office for more
details.
Eliminating the funding
obstacle is obviously important;
however,
the
heart
of
tnAchieves is the opportunity
for students to work with
mentors.
tnAchieves has experienced
substantial success utilizing
volunteers in business and
community-based
organizations to guide its
students through the college
access and success processes.
Each student is assigned a
volunteer mentor who agrees to
help the student eliminate the
barriers associated with college
access. tnAchieves mentors
support the student through

Commission Approves
Preliminary Plans for
New Jail/Justice Center
The Fentress County Commission met in regular monthly
session on Monday, July 18,
2011 and took action on a
number of items of business,
including approval of the
preliminary plans for a new
Jail/Justice Center.
With all members present
except Bill Phipps, the meeting
was called to order by Executive
Frank Smith, and following the
pledge to the Flag, led by
Leonard Bilbrey and prayer by
Ray Buck, approved notaries
and the minutes of the previous
meeting.
Next, they approved an
amendment to the 3-Star
budget to allow them to accept
$40.28 in donations.
B. Allen Hill, Associate with
Upland
Design
Group,
Architects and Engineers,
addressed the commission,
giving an update and presenting
preliminary plans for the new
Jail/Justice Center complex,
answering questions by the
commission members concerning specific aspects of the
facility, stating that once the
preliminary
plans
were
approved, they could proceed
with design development, which
would take about 3 to 4 weeks,
after which they could proceed
with developing the actual
blueprints.
Neal
Richardson
with
Upland Design pointed out that
the new facility had been
developed and designed for
efficiency in holding down the
long-term operating costs, such
as designing it so that three
people could watch and
monitor the entire cell-block
area, and that everyone
involved with the planning
process had approved the plans
which they were presenting.
Leonard Bilbrey then made a
motion that the preliminary
plans be approved, with his
motion being seconded by
Rodney Jones and passed on a
roll-call vote, 8-1-1, with all
present voting for except Donal
Williams, who passed, and Bill
Phipps absent.
Next, they approved the
appointment of Nolan Hull as
Planning Commission Member
from the First District and
David Shaner as Planning
Commission Member for the
Second District.
Kristin Rosecrants then
questioned the commissioners
about the 21-acre parcel of
property they had purchased
for the Jail/Justice Center on
Rugby Avenue for $255,000,
stating the motion stipulated
that it would be “contingent on
it being rezoned by the City of
Jamestown for commercial
purposes.” and asked “when
did that happen.”
County
Attorney
Paul
Crouch said that after talking
with
MTAS
(Municipal
Technical Assistance Services)
it was learned that if the county
owned the property, it did not
have to be rezoned, nor were
any city permits required to
construct a county facility on
the propery.
Ms. Rosecrants then said:
“Malfeasance is the definition
of a wrongdoing or wrongful
or illegal act, especially by a
public official. Gentlemen, I
would seriously contemplate
what you’re doing, and the
money you’re spending. You’ve
already spent $224,000 that’s
lost and you’re going to have to
repay because of malfeasance,
and we’re looking at that all
over again.”
The meeting then adjourned
at 6:50 p.m. on a motion by
Leonard Bilbrey.
Red Cross Shelter
Management Training
Session Held July 9

HOME DESTROYED BY FIRE:
3 units from the Fentress County Fire Department responded to a structure fire at the residence
of Ellen Bentley, located just off Highway 62 at 590 Clear Creek Lane shortly before 6 p.m.
Sunday. According to reports, Ms. Bentley was asleep in a bedroom when a smoke detector
awoke her and when she opened the bedroom door, the whole house was full of smoke. She
managed to escape without injury through a bedroom window and called 911. When firemen
arrived they found the rear portion of the double-wide mobile home engulfed in flames and
were able to contain the blaze to the utility room and kitchen area. However, they were called
back to the scene shortly after 11 p.m. Sunday night at which time they were unable to save
the structure. Fire units from Clarkrange, Grimsley and Jamestown responded to the fire, as
well as Fentress County Rescue Squad and Emergency Management personnel.
The meeting began at 8:00
a.m. with breakfast being
served by the First Baptist
Men’s Brotherhood.
Instruction began at 8:30 a.m.
and continued until noon.
Louie Keeling from the
Knoxville Chapter, who has
overseen many large shelters
across the southeast, as
instructor for the program.
Billy Jennings Sr., who serves
as local Red Cross Liaison
Officer, spoke with members of
the local news media following
the session, stating: “It was a
good turnout. We had 22
people there, including several
from the First Baptist Church
who took the training, which
deals with all phases of shelter
operation.
It was very
thorough and in-depth.
I
thought Mr. Keeling did a great
job in teaching the class, taking
them from the procedures for
opening a shelter through the
operation and closure.”
“Sometimes, shelters only
have to be open for a short
period of time, such as in the
event of a threat of a storm or
tornado, and other times, it may
have to be opened for an
extended period of time in the
event of a disaster such as a
tornado or other severe
situation. The First Baptist
Church Shelter has the ability
to accommodate either small
groups in the fellowship hall or
large groups in the gymnasium
area. It also has full kitchen
facilities, with gas backup in the

admission and financial aid
paperwork,
motivate
the
student to meet deadlines, and
perhaps most importantly,
encourage the student to reach
his/her potential.
Without the encouragement
of mentors, many of the
students would slip through the
proverbial cracks associated
with the transition from high
school to college. It takes only
15 hours annually to positively
influence a student’s perception
about college.
With an emphasis on a more
qualified workforce and an
understanding
of
the
importance
of
increased
educational
attainment,
Governor Haslam and former
Knox County Mayor Mike
Ragsdale, along with business
leaders Randy Boyd, Rich Ray,
and Tim Williams established
knoxAchieves, now tnAchieves,
in 2008.
In its first two years,
knoxAchieves worked with
1,300 applicants and placed 716
of
those students into
community college.
The
program currently has 608
students enrolled with a 65
percent fall-to-fall retention
rate.
With the help of Knox
County’s
hardworking
guidance
counselors,
knoxAchieves mentors have
spent the last six months
working with 1,073 seniors
from the Class of 2011. More
than 90 percent have met all the
requirements
to
enter
Pellissippi, Roane or Walters
State in the fall. Even more
exciting, over 65 percent of the
students are the first in their
families to attend college.

The Sheriff’s
Corner
TIPS TO AVOID BEING
“DRIVEN TO
DISTRACTION”
Sheriff Tony Choate is
concerned with drivers using
cell phones while driving and
has therefore asked that this
article appear in this week’s
SHERIFF’S CORNER.
In recent months, there’s been
a great deal of attention paid to
the issue of texting while
driving, and with good reason:
keeping your eyes on the tiny
keyboard in front of you
instead of the highway ahead is
a sure way to head down the
road to disaster. It’s also an
increasing threat in this digital
age. Unfortunately, texting is
just the latest in a long line of
distractions that are having
deadly
consequences
on
America’s
roadways—with
426,000 lives tragically lost each
year.
“Distracted
driving
is
increasingly having an impact
on lives lost and property
damaged,” said Bill Moore,
president of MetLife Auto &
Home. “Safe driving is really
about focus. Every day, our
Claim Department receives
reports of claims that could
have been avoided, had the
basic principles of defensive
driving and driver attentiveness
been observed.”
To help avoid being “driven to
distraction,” MetLife Auto &
Home reminds consumers to
ask the following questions,
when behind the wheel:
• Are you keeping your eye
on the prize? With cars more
than ever resembling mobile
offices
and
massive
entertainment centers, it can be
easy to forget the main reason
that you’re behind the wheel.
Keep in mind: these distractions
can cut your reaction time in
half, and with most accidents
occurring in seconds, you need
all the time you can get.
• Are you awake enough to
drive? Driver fatigue leads to
driver inattentiveness, and
according to the National
Highway
Traffic
Safety
Administration,
100,000
crashes are caused each year by
drivers literally being asleep at
the wheel. Recognize the signs
of drowsy driving, which
include difficulty focusing,
frequent blinking, irritability,
and frequent yawning—and
then, take action.
• Are you more interested in
your cell phone conversation
than the road ahead? Many
states are placing restrictions on
the use of cell phones while
driving. Even in states where it’s
permissible, avoid doing so
whenever possible. Talking on a
cell phone will increase the
likelihood of getting involved in
a motor vehicle accident, so if
you absolutely need to call, pull
off the road to a safe location
and dial away.
• Do you have a designated
deejay? Simple things like
changing the radio dial or
finding that “perfect song” on
your MP3 player may seem
harmless, but they can be a big
distraction. Whenever possible,
let your passengers “take the
wheel” when it comes to
selecting the musical mood.
• Are you being lazy about
changing lanes? It’s critical you
look briefly over both shoulders
before changing lanes, even if
you’d rather focus on other
things. Even if you have
onboard technology installed in
the car, such as blind spot and
rear view indicators, the basics
you learned in driver’s
education will always apply:
signal your intention, check
your mirrors, and then glance
back both ways to be certain
that no one—or no thing—has
found its way into your blind
spots.
• Are you day-driving or
daydreaming? Even without
external distractions, it’s easy to
get caught up thinking about
personal problems or work
assignments. If you feel
yourself losing your focus, give
yourself a wake up call, and set
aside your problems. They can
wait until the ride is over.
Building A
Safe Room
Saves Lives
NASHVILLE, Tenn. - The
tornadoes and high winds that
have caused so many deaths
this year make it all too
obvious why a "safe room" is a
good idea. Although a home
may be built "to code," that
does not mean it can withstand
the forces from extreme
weather events. A safe room is a
refuge that can save lives.
You can build a safe room in
one of several places in your
home:
• Your basement.
• Atop a concrete slab-ongrade foundation or garage
floor.
• An interior room on the
first floor.
Safe rooms built below
ground level offer the best
protection, but a safe room
built in a first-floor interior
room can also provide the
necessary safeguards. Belowground safe rooms must be
designed to avoid taking in
water during the heavy rains or
high water tables that often
accompany windstorms.
Here are some considerations
when building a safe room:
• The safe room must be
adequately anchored to resist
overturning and uplift.
• The walls, ceiling, and door
of the shelter must withstand
wind pressure and resist
penetration by windborne
objects and falling debris.
• The connections between
all parts of the safe room must
be strong enough to resist the
wind.
• Sections of either interior
or exterior residence walls that
are used as walls of the safe
room must be separated from
the structure of the residence so
that damage to the residence
will not cause damage to the
safe room.
For more information on
building a safe room, visit the
FEMA

at
www.fema.gov/plan/prevent/saf
eroom. For FEMA P-320 book

Your Home or Small Business,"

A safe room may be built into
new housing or added inside or
outside to existing structures.

rooms, go to www.FEMA.gov.

Use Common
Sense When
Shopping Online
Nashville, TN – While online
opportunities for consumers are
almost endless, there are risks,
too. Con artists use the Internet
to defraud consumers in a variety
of clever ways. Whether buying
a product from a company’s
website, an online auction or on
Craigslist, any time you deal with
someone you aren’t meeting faceto-face, you risk getting
scammed. One of the most
common scams involves getting
consumers to wire money. Wiring
money is like sending cash; once
it’s gone, you can’t get it back.
Wire transfers can be useful
when you want to send funds to
someone you know or trust, but
are not appropriate when doing
business with a stranger. Be
suspicious of sellers who insist on
cash wire transfers. Ask to use
another method of payment. If
the seller insists on a wire
transfer, end the transaction. A
seller’s insistence on a wire
transfer is a sign that you
probably are not going to get the
item and you will lose your
money. Scam artists pretending
to be legitimate sellers use a
number of tricks to get potential
buyers to wire them cash. To
protect yourself from falling
victim to a scam:
Avoid sending money overseas.
Con artists often insist people
wire money, especially overseas,
because it’s nearly impossible to
reverse the transaction or trace
the money. Know whom you are
dealing with. Confirm the online
seller’s physical address and
phone number, in case you have
questions or problems. Research
online reviews by previous
customers. Examine the service's
privacy policy and security
measures.
Never
disclose
financial
or
personal
information, unless you know
why it's being collected, how it
will be used and how it will be
safeguarded. Check out the
online payment or escrow
service's Web site. Sites that are of
poor quality – say, with
misspelled words or that claim to
be affiliated with the government
– are suspect.
Call the customer service line.
If there isn't one – or if you call
and can't reach someone – don't
use the service. Be suspicious of
online escrow services that can't
process their own transactions
but require users to set up
accounts with online payment
services.
Check with the
Tennessee Division of Consumer
Affairs or the Attorney General’s
Office where you live and where
the online payment or escrow
service is based, to see whether
there are unresolved complaints
against the service. Be aware that
a lack of complaints doesn't
necessarily mean that a service
has no problems.

There is no doubt that texting
is becoming the way that most
teenagers, and even most adults,
communicate. Since this is the
case, we are all aware that some
of us are texting behind the
wheel.
Most have been
informed that Tennessee has a
law against texting while
driving.
Distracted
driving
is
becoming a problem. Even
some cell phone companies
have put together tip sheets for
parents and teens.
AT&T
published the following safety
tips for teens: 1.) No text
message is worth being
distracted while you drive. Be
smart and do NOT text. 2.) If
you are tempted to text while
driving, turn off your phone or
set your phone to silent. 3.) If
you know that a friend is
driving, do not text him or her.
4.) Encourage your friends to
resist the urge to text while
driving.
As well as posting tips for
teens, AT&T has safety tips for
adults as well. 1.) Talk with
your
teens
about
the
consequences of texting and
driving. 2.) Be an example to
your children and do not text
while driving. 3.) If you know
that your teen is driving, do not
text him or her. 4.) Know that
some cell phone companies
offer ways to manage your
teen’s texting. Know your
options.
The
Fentress
County
Children’s Center is dedicated
to promoting safety for children
and teens.

4-H Communication
Project Group Explores
TV Media
by Gail Dawson
WCTE,
the
public
television station of the
Upper Cumberland, held
the “Great TV Auction” the
first 2 weekends in June.
WCTE staff arranged for
the Fentress County 4-H
Communication
Project
Group to tour the set.
The group was given
presentations
on
the
different jobs that are
performed
during
the
auction. It was arranged for
the project group members
Bethany Atkins, Hannah
Gaddes and Alex Crockett
and Leader Gail Dawson to
fill needed positions during
the auction.
One evening during the
opening segment of the
auction Gail Dawson was
given the opportunity to tell
the potential 1.3 million
viewers about the Fentress
County 4-H club and the
Communication
Project
Group.
The station raised over
$93,000. This money will
assist in creating local
programming. This was a
great opportunity for the
group to be part of a live TV
program,
observe
the
control center, and practice
modeling and telephone
skills.
Besides meeting the great
staff from WCTE, the group
also met several Upper
Cumberland
business
persons,
a
State
Representative,
radio
personalities, and coaches
and staff from Tennessee
Tech University. This was
an experience they truly
enjoyed and they plan to
volunteer again next year.
Bethany Atkins is shown observing some of the equipment
used to hold a live TV auction.
Hannah Gaddes, Alex Crockett, Bethany Atkins, and Gail
Dawson are seen as they prepare for a night of volunteer work
at the Great TV auction. This is a yearly auction to raise money
for WCTE the Public Television Station of the Upper
Cumberland.

Game of Thrones
Written by George R.R.
Martin
Reviewed by Lowell Norris
Game of Thrones is a
masterpiece of the Fantasy
genre reminiscent of The
Lord of the Rings trilogy.
Game of Thrones is actually
a tetra logy this being the
first volume.
In this wonderful book
there is mystery, romance,
adventure-it has it all. The
books were first published in
the nineties and I’m sorry to
say I am just now getting
around to reading them.
The book has recently been
made into a mini-series by
HBO. Trouble is brewing in
this land where winters last
for a lifetime and summers
for decades. To the north of
Winterfell
beyond
the
protective wall strange things
are happening.
The Stark family of
Winterfell is caught in the
middle of a struggle for the
kingdom.
King Roberts
kingdom is crumbling amid
tragedy and betrayal, plots
and counterplots.
This is a wonderful tale of
kings, princes, bastards,
sorcerers, lords and ladies, of
sword fights an intrigue at
court as each family plays at
that most deadly of games:
the game of thrones.
There are many colorful
characters in this fast
moving and exiting book,
that I’m sure you will enjoy
it. It reminded me so much
of Tolkiens Lord of the
Rings I could scarcely put it
down, and when I was
finished with it I was ready
for more. If you like a fast
moving adventuress book
then come on by the Fentress
County Library today and
check out Game of Thrones.

Fair time is here in Overton

afternoon and judged the
cakes, pies, breads, cookies,
fudge, you get the picture, don't
you? They had a lot of good
entries and a lot of good cooks
over there. Don't forget the
Putnam County fair around
the first of August. Haley, my 8
years old granddaughter,
showed her goat in the goat
show at Overton County on
Saturday night. She done very
well and brought home 2
ribbons and a little prize
money. Now she is getting
ready for some more fairs. She
loves it, especially if it comes
with prize money. She named
her goat Jewel.
Lets do some cooking.

had a chance to pick any yet
but hope to this week.
Blueberries are very good for
you. I love to eat them fresh or
frozen. I have a recipe for a
blueberry crisp using fresh
berries. You can use frozen but
if you do keep them frozen and
bake 10 to 15 minutes longer.
Thawed berries are too fragile
to toss and give off lots of
liquid.

1/4 cup chilled butter, cut into
small pieces
Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
Coat an 8-inch square glass or
ceramic baking dish with
cooking spray. Sprinkle 2
teaspoons cornstarch evenly in
dish. Combine remaining 2
teaspoons
cornstarch,
2
tablespoons brown sugar,
vanilla, and blueberries in a
large bowl; toss. Place in
prepared baking dish. Lightly
spoon flour into a dry

6
ingredients
(through
cinnamon) in a bowl of a food
processor; pulse twice to
combine. Add butter; pulse 5
times or until the mixture
resembles coarse meal. Spoon
topping evenly over blueberries,
packing down lightly. Bake at
375 degrees for 30 minutes or
until filling is bubbly and
topping is golden. Serves 8.
Good served with ice cream.
My sister told me about
being at a funeral recently and
a little 5 year old friend of hers
was asking where her dad went.
She told her that he was a
pallbearer and had to go sit in a
special spot. When he walked
in to sit with the pall bearers,
she asked, "Why don't he have
it on?" My sister asked what
she was talking about and little
Macy said" Where is his 'bear'
suit?" Isn't he a polar bear?
Thanks for all the prayers
and well wishes for George. He
had another heart attack last
week and had to have a stint
put in the artery that was
blocked. He is doing well.
Now we have a matching pair
of stints.

Mr. and Mrs. Oscar Stephens
George Oscar Stephens, Sr. and Gertrude Geraldine
(Winningham) Zachary were married July 17 at The
Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Jamestown
by Bishop Bruce E. York. Oscar and Geraldine have been
friends for many years. They met while Oscar, a retired
home builder, was building a house near her home. He
introduced her to the LDS Church, she was baptized, and
they developed a lasting friendship that has now resulted
in their marriage. Geraldine was given away by her son
and daughter-in-law, Ted and Carol Peercy. Carol also
served as the maid of honor and Oscar’s brother, Elzy
Stephens, was best man. Following the ceremony,
friends and family celebrated the marriage with a light
luncheon and wedding cake. Among those attending the
wedding were Oscar’s only two living siblings, Elza Alfred
Stephens and Alma (Stephens) Choate; brother-in-law
Austin Choate; daughter, Shirley (Stephens) Cravens;
Geraldine’s son and daughter-in-law, Ted and Carol
Peercy; two granddaughters, Angela (Peercy) and

Helps KTnB Keep “Streak” Alive
KTnB Achieves 100% County
Participation for Fifth
Straight Year During GAC
Jamestown, TN (July 18,
2011) - “The streak is alive.”
That was the response from
Keep America Beautiful
(KAB) when Keep Tennessee
Beautiful (KTnB) revealed it
had achieved 100-percent
participation from all 95
Tennessee counties during the
2011
Great
American
Cleanup (GAC). KTnB
accomplished this unparalled
feat for the fifth year in a row.
“Keep Tennessee Beautiful’s
100-percent
countywide
participation in the past five
Great American Cleanup
campaigns is a phenomenal
achievement,” said Matt
McKenna, KAB President
and CEO. “Great American
Cleanup
volunteers
in
Tennessee
once
again
demonstrated great pride of
place by creating more
sustainable
communities
through their volunteer work,
and through their daily
choices and actions.”
Keeping “the streak” alive
has been one of the primary
goals of KTnB since 2007,
when KTnB became the first
state in the nation to achieve
100-percent
county
participation during GAC.
KTnB Executive Director
Sutton Mora Hayes said,
“Working on GAC is a yearlong process for our staff,
even though the events only
happen from March 1st –
May 31st. Everyone here
works to ensure that each
local GAC coordinator has
the resources he or she needs
to host successful and
meaningful GAC events. The
staff is tireless during this
process, and the proof of
their accomplishments is a
fifth year of 100-percent
success.”
The results speak for
themselves. A total of 765,560
Tennesseans have contributed
over two million volunteer
hours to collect 72,352 tons
of trash, 26,989.7 tons of
recycling, and plant 166,232
trees during the five-year
streak.
“We’re amazed at the
numbers that our volunteers
report to us each year. KTnB
looks forward to continuing
our GAC success in the
future,” Mora Hayes said.
Here are some of the
incredible numbers for just
2011. Statewide, over 143,053
volunteers
contributed
358,240 hours to pick up
nearly 60,711 tons of trash.
This included 8,993 miles of
roads, 15,778 acres of parks,
and 205 illegal dumps.
Recycling has become an
increasingly important part of
GAC and the KAB value
system, and Tennesseans have
answered the call. In 2011,
participants collected 549,597
pounds of clothes, over one
million pounds of PET,
854,782 pounds of glass, over
1.4 million pounds of
aluminum, nearly 37 million
pounds of paper, and 648,618
pounds of electronics.
Recognizing that GAC is
not just about picking up what
is out of place or recycling old
items, volunteers also planted
585
gardens/landscapes,
35,537 trees, and 84,493
flowers in 2011. A total of 519
homes were also renovated or
painted, and 263 graffiti sites
were abated.
Locally, during the 2011
GAC, Fentress County Solid
Waste Department, led by
Faye Dalton, collected 10,200
pounds of trash in Fentress
County. A total of 2,220
volunteers contributed 4,529
hours, helping Dalton achieve
these totals.
Dalton said, “It is awesome
to know that the citizens,
businesses, schools, civic
groups, and local government
have come together for such a
worthy cause. Our county
shows its true volunteer spirit
each time we have an event. I
am so blessed to get to work
with such a wonderful group
of citizens and that’s what
makes it so interesting.”

the 2011 Great American
Cleanup were: The Dow

USDA Reassures Farmers
And Ranchers In States
Affected By Extreme
Weather
By: Don Atkinson, CED
The U.S. Department of
Agriculture (USDA) reminds
farmers and ranchers in states
across the country that USDA
offers a variety of resources for
those affected by recent extreme
weather, including floods,
drought, fires and tornadoes.
USDA also urges producers
in need or those with questions
to contact their local county or
state USDA Service Center or
Farm Service Agency office for
assistance.
In a recent tour of flooding in
Iowa and Nebraska, as well as
droughts and wildfires in
Arizona and New Mexico,
Agriculture Secretary Tom
Valisack promised farmers,
ranchers and others that USDA
would continue to work hard to
deliver assistance to those in
need.
“America’s farmers and rural
communities
are
vital
important to our nation’s
economy and out values, and
my heart goes out to all who
are facing hardships because of
severe weather and natural
disasters, “ said Vilsack.. “In
the past 2 months alone, I have
visited with hundreds of
Americans who have had to put
their lives and livelihoods on
hold to deal with floods,
tornadoes,
drought
and
wildfires.
Since the beginning, I have
instructed USDA staff in the
affected states that our main
priority must be to work with
farmers, ranchers and others to
explain the type of aid that is
available. We will continue to
listen to your concerns and,
whenever
possible,
offer
assistance to help you through
these difficult times.
Heavy rainfall, snowmelt, and
flood conditions have caused
crop damage and slowed
planting in many states.
USDA’s Risk Management
Agency reminds producers
faced with questions on
prevented planting, plant, or
crop losses to contact their crop
insurance company for more
information. Other types of
USDA assistance available to
those affected by flooding
include the Emergency Loan
Program and the Emergency
Watershed Protection Program.
USDA reminds producers
affected by drought and fires
that resources are available to
cover losses, including losses to
livestock, crop, orchard trees,
and private forests. Types of
USDA assistance to farm and
ranchers may include the
Supplemental
Revenue
assistance Program (SURE),
federal crop insurance, and the
Noninsured Crop Disaster
Assistance Program.
Through spring and summer,
drought and wildfires have
affected millions of acres of
cropland, forests and grasslands
in the United States. Drought
conditions
stretch
from
Arizona to the southern
Atlantic States.
USDA continues working
with state and local officials, as
well as our federal partners, to
make sure people have the
necessary resources to recover
from these challenges.

$51.9 Million In
Additional Federal Funds
Rescinded From TDOT
Nashville, Tenn. – The
Transportation (TDOT) has
been notified by the Federal
Highway Administration that
$51.9 million in federal funds
will be rescinded from the
department’s federal allocation
of funds for fiscal year 2011. A
rescission of funds means that
federal dollars promised to
Tennessee have now been
cancelled and will not be
received.
The rescission of funds is a
separate issue from the debt
limit discussions currently
underway
by
federal
lawmakers.
“Nearly
50%
of
the
department’s budget comes
from the federal government,
so a reduction in these funds
significantly
impacts
the
resources available to TDOT,”
said TDOT Commissioner
John Schroer. “This shortfall
requires the department to
make difficult decisions in our
core highway programs,”
Schroer continued, “We don’t
want to make cuts anywhere
that would delay the delivery of
projects that are ready to go.”
TDOT is currently operating
under a series of continuing
resolutions
through
“SAFETEA-LU”
(Safe,
Accountable, Flexible, Efficient

Fentress County Schools
Requirement For
Entering Kindergarten
Kindergarten is now a requirement for all school age
children. Children must attend a state approved kindergarten
program before entering the first grade. The minimum age
for entering kindergarten is five (5) years of age by
September 30 of the year the child enters school. Students
may enter school at this age but do NOT have to enter
school at that time. However, if they delay starting school
at this time they must start school no later than the year of
their sixth (6th) birthday.
Following are additional requirements a parent or guardian
must have completed for their child in order for the child
to enter kindergarten.
1) Present an original copy of the child’s birth certificate.
2) Present an up to date shot record with required
immunizations.
3) The child must have had a medical assessment by
a qualified person: Doctor, physician’s assistant,
nurse practitioner or a properly trained public health
nurse. This assessment must have occurred within
one year prior to entering school and must be
submitted on an approved state form.
4) Social Security number for the child.
THERE ARE NO OTHER REQUIREMENTS FOR A
CHILD TO ENTER KINDERGARTEN. However, it is
recognized that some children begin school better socially
and educationally prepared than others. As a result of this
the less prepared child may not progress as rapidly as the
other child. Regardless, each and every child may begin
school at the five year old mark and are welcome in our
schools.
If there are any questions concerning this information,
please contact Randy Clark at the Director of Schools’
office in Jamestown at 879-9218.

FAQ: Cat
Reproduction
Submitted by Best Friends
Sanctuary
At what age do female cats
first go in to heat?
Female cats typically reach
sexual maturity when they are
about 4.5 - 7.0 lb. (2.3-3.2 kg),
or between five and nine
months of age. However, it is
possible for female kittens as
young as four months to go
into heat and become pregnant!
In addition, domestic shorthair
and longhair cats may reach
sexual maturity earlier than
purebred cats, and freeroaming cats may become
sexually mature sooner than
cats kept indoors.
How long do they stay in
heat?
The duration of estrus (heat)
varies in individual cats. Heat
lasts an average of seven days,
but may be as long as 21 days.
If a female cat doesn’t mate
and become pregnant, she may
go back into heat repeatedly,
with only brief periods of nonheat - as little as two days between heats!
At what age can they become
pregnant?
A female cat can become
pregnant as soon as she is
sexually mature-as early as four
months of age.
During what times of the
year can a female cat get
pregnant?
While
breeding
and
pregnancy
occur
most
commonly in the spring, female
cats can become pregnant at
any time during the year,
especially in mild climates.
What is the gestation period
for a pregnant cat?
56 to 71 days. The average
length is 67 days.
How many litters can a
female cat have in a year?
Up to five litters in one year!
What is the average number
of kittens born in a litter?
For free-roaming cats, the
average number of kittens per
litter is probably around three,
but it can commonly be up to
six or more.
Can cats become pregnant
while they are nursing kittens?
Yes, absolutely! It is typical
for cats to go back into heat
one to two months after giving
birth to kittens, and they can
easily become pregnant at this

second place winner of the 2011
National Law Enforcement
Challenge. Colonel Tracy Trott

“This is a tremendous honor
and we could not have earned it
without the dedication and
hard work by our troopers,
dispatchers, and support staff.
They are out on the roadways
protecting citizens across the
state each and every day. They
are Tennessee’s Finest, and I
will accept this award in their
honor,” said Colonel Trott.
The
National
Law
Enforcement Challenge is a
competition
between
law
enforcement agencies of similar
sizes and types. The Highway
Patrol competed in the State

challenge, the THP submitted
an application documenting its
efforts and effectiveness in
traffic safety enforcement,

public information and crash
reduction. In 2010 and 2009,
the THP walked away with a
third place finish. It earned first
place in 2006.

WASHINGTON – U.S.
Senator Lamar Alexander (RTenn.) recently released the
following statement about his
co-sponsorship of the “Cut,
Cap, and Balance Act of 2011,”
introduced by Senator Mike
Lee (R-Utah) to reduce federal
spending, impose spending caps
over the next decade, and
require the passage of a
balanced-budget amendment to
raise the debt ceiling:
“At a time when we’re
borrowing 40 cents of every
dollar we spend, I will support
serious proposals like the ‘Cut,
Cap and Balance Act’ to reduce
out-of-control
Washington
spending. The final version of
any such legislation should have
an appropriate balance between
reductions in both entitlement
and discretionary spending, but
this bill is a good start in the
right direction.”

American Red Cross Blood
Shortage Continues
Fair time is here in Overton
County. I went over on Sunday
afternoon and judged the
cakes, pies, breads, cookies,
fudge, you get the picture, don't
you? They had a lot of good
entries and a lot of good cooks
over there. Don't forget the
Putnam County fair around
the first of August. Haley, my 8
years old granddaughter,
showed her goat in the goat
show at Overton County on
Saturday night. She done very
well and brought home 2
ribbons and a little prize
money. Now she is getting
ready for some more fairs. She
loves it, especially if it comes
with prize money. She named
her goat Jewel.
Lets do some cooking.
Blueberries are here. I have not
had a chance to pick any yet
but hope to this week.
Blueberries are very good for
you. I love to eat them fresh or
frozen. I have a recipe for a
blueberry crisp using fresh
berries. You can use frozen but
if you do keep them frozen and
bake 10 to 15 minutes longer.
Thawed berries are too fragile
to toss and give off lots of
liquid.
Blueberry Crisp
Cooking spray
4 teaspoons cornstarch,
divided
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 pound fresh blueberries or
frozen
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1/4 cup old-fashioned rolled
oats
3 tablespoons chopped
walnuts
2 tablespoons cornmeal
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4
teaspoon
ground
cinnamon
1/4 cup chilled butter, cut into
small pieces
Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
Coat an 8-inch square glass or
ceramic baking dish with
cooking spray. Sprinkle 2
teaspoons cornstarch evenly in
dish. Combine remaining 2
teaspoons
cornstarch,
2
tablespoons brown sugar,
vanilla, and blueberries in a
large bowl; toss. Place in
prepared baking dish. Lightly
spoon flour into a dry
measuring cup; level with a
knife. Combine flour and next
6
ingredients
(through
cinnamon) in a bowl of a food
processor; pulse twice to
combine. Add butter; pulse 5
times or until the mixture
resembles coarse meal. Spoon
topping evenly over blueberries,
packing down lightly. Bake at
375 degrees for 30 minutes or
until filling is bubbly and
topping is golden. Serves 8.
Good served with ice cream.
My sister told me about being
at a funeral recently and a little
5 year old friend of hers was
asking where her dad went. She
told her that he was a
pallbearer and had to go sit in a
special spot. When he walked
in to sit with the pall bearers,
she asked, "Why don't he have
it on?" My sister asked what
she was talking about and little
Macy said" Where is his 'bear'
suit?" Isn't he a polar bear?
Thanks for all the prayers
and well wishes for George. He
had another heart attack last
week and had to have a stint
put in the artery that was
blocked. He is doing well.
Now we have a matching pair
of stints.
Until next week, any
questions or recipes to share
just call at 931-839-2313 or email

Tennessee Valley Region
Blood Supply Remains
Critically Low
(Nashville, Tenn., July 18,
2011) The critical blood
shortage issued by the
American Red Cross recently
continues to affect the
Tennessee Valley Region.
Donors of all blood types are
needed now.
Many donors are busy or
traveling, school is out of
session and donations in May
and June dropped to the lowest
levels the Red Cross has seen
during this time frame in over a
dozen years. Demand for blood
remained steady during this
same period, which is why the
Red Cross needs people—now
more than ever—to roll up a
sleeve and give as soon as
possible. All types are needed,
but especially O negative, which
can be used to treat any patient.
The Red Cross Tennessee
Valley Blood Services Region
provides life saving blood to 57
hospitals and must have 600
people give blood and platelets
each weekday to meet hospital
demand. Accident victims, as
well as patients with cancer,
sickle cell disease, blood
disorders and other illnesses
receive lifesaving transfusions
every day. There is no
substitute for blood and
volunteer donors are the only
source.
Locally, you may give blood
on Friday, Aug. 12, from 12
noon to 6 p.m. at Jamestown
Community Center located on
Highway 127 in Jamestown.
As an extra incentive this
summer, anyone who presents
to donate blood with the Red
Cross between July 1 and Sept.
5 is automatically entered into
a drawing for a $250 gas card.
On Labor Day weekend,
anyone presenting to donate
Friday through Monday is
automatically entered into a
drawing for a $1,000 gas card.
Plus, anyone who presents to
donate blood Wednesday, May
25 through Wednesday, Sept.
14 is automatically entered into
the
Red
Cross
Racing
“Summer Drive Sweepstakes”
to win a brand new 2012 red
candy metallic Ford Fiesta SE,
courtesy of Ford Motor
Company.
One winner is
selected by random drawing on
Monday, Sept. 19. For more
information, or to schedule
your summer blood donation
appointment, please visit
redcrossracing.com or call 1800-RED CROSS.
How to Donate Blood:
Call 1-800 RED CROSS (1800-733-2767)
or
visit
redcrossblood.org for more
information or to make an
appointment. All blood types
are needed to ensure the Red
Cross maintains an adequate
blood supply. A blood donor
card or driver’s license or two
other forms of identification
are required at check-in.
Donors must be in general
good health, weigh at least 110
pounds and be at least 17 years
old (16 with completed
Parental Consent Form). New
height and weight restrictions
apply to donors 18 and
younger.
About the American Red
Cross:
The American Red Cross
shelters, feeds and provides
emotional support to victims
of disasters; supplies nearly
half of the nation's blood;
teaches
lifesaving
skills;
provides
international
humanitarian
aid;
and
supports military members and
their families. The Red Cross is
a charitable organization —
not a government agency —
and depends on volunteers and
