Even with mail volume dropping, Postmaster General Patrick Donahoe called on Congress to help get the mail delivery service onto sound financial footing. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration on Wednesday confirmed reports of the caffeine drink, “Five Hour Energy,” as possibly being involved in 13 deaths over the past four years. The announcement followed the FDA disclosure last month that it was investigating five deaths that might be related to Monster Beverage’s namesake drinks. A study released on Thursday by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said Americans get as many empty calories from alcohol as from soft drinks. Sodas, colas, and other sweetened drinks account for six percent of calories consumed by adults, while booze is the source for five percent, the study said, According to the Department of Transportation on Thursday, more Americans are buckling up than ever before, hit- Mallory Bliss Vance We Love You!

The trend was credited for a dramatic decrease in U.S. road deaths over the past decade. Apparently Americans who want their states to secede aren’t just whistling Dixie. According to Fox News on Thursday, the White House has received petitions from all 50 states, signed by at least 750,000 citizens, requesting permission to withdraw from the US of A. On Thursday, Politico said the “federal government was broken beyond all belief” and Texas Governor Rick Perry added that he understood “the frustrations many Americans have with the federal government.” New research released on Thursday from the Institute for Natural Medicine and Prevention in Iowa suggests that Transcendental Meditation may be a boon to black persons suffering from heart disease and could prevent a heart attack or stroke. In TM, individuals use a mantra – a word, sound, or phrase – to shut out distracting thoughts in order to reach a relaxed state of mind.

Some are young, some are old, and all have a different drive in heart and mind—the reason they take up the mission day in and day out. But there is one trait that all superheroes share, one that decides whether or not they really are champions of truth and justice. That defining trait is bravery, and bravery of the unshakeable sort. Day in and day out, no matter what the odds, no matter the troubles that rise up and loom over them, a true “super” hero displays insurmountable courage and integrity under fire. Such superheroes exist not just in comic books or in the realm of film. They live and breathe and shine in this world, too, daring to be courageous in the face of crisis and lending a hand to those who need them the most. And one of those brave, inspiring young men just so happens to call Madisonville, Tennessee his home. His name is Mason Millsaps, also known as the intrepid and amazing Super NooDy. It has not been an easy journey for this young hero. Even at the tender age of five, Mason has faced many a trial that would make many men falter and fall, and perhaps even stay down. He has not only epilepsy, CP, and a few chromosome disorders, but also an immunedeficiency disorder. Visits to the doctor, and several required infusions, come on a monthly basis. His stamina is quite low, too, and he tires easily, necessitating the use a specialneeds stroller. He does not communicate through the spoken word. Sleeping issues make finding a good night’s rest a rarity. His motor-planning skills are not where they need to be, either, and uneven surfaces such as hills or stairwells make the seemingly simple act of walking a job and a half. But just as the fabled man of steel is able to leap tall buildings in a single bound, so has Super NooDy taken on all these challenging obstacles in his life. “He doesn’t want to walk,” said his mother, Carrie Millsaps, with a smile. “He wants to run everywhere.” And run he has, and with all the power of a locomotive. Mason is as crazy and excitable as any other kid, related his parents. He is especially wild and wacky outside, where he is willing to tackle most anything and everything. He loves cars and sports in general, but baseball is his special passion. When he is not watching a game on television or cheering at a Tennessee Smokies game, he is brushing up on his own skills at home. Mason owns a whole picnic basket of balls, and he throws each and every one down a hall before racing down the corridor to try the game again. Low stamina is not enough to quench the fire in his heart. This local superhero is also incredibly personable and sociable, a true friend November 16, 2012 to all he meets. “He’s fun and loving,” said his mother. And with a smile she added, “Very loving.” His father, Wes, was quick to agree. “Everybody who meets him likes him,” he said. And though Mason is not able to speak through words, he is more than capable of getting his point across. “He wants to be able to communicate and tell you things,” said Mrs. Millsaps. “And he can, in his own way.” ‘His own way’ is pretty amazing. Mason is incredibly intelligent, and commands a large vocabulary in sign. And his grasp of sign-language only continues to grow. He is also learning to “speak” aloud by using his trusty iPad, which he has had for a little over two years now. The truth is as inspiring as it is simple. Super NooDy is more than ready—and willing—to jump into a new adventure, each and every day, and fly, fly, fly. He is Monroe County’s very own Mr. Kent. For young Mason has fit into the mold of the legendary Superman all too well. This connection became obvious one year during Halloween, when he dressed up as the Man of Steel. Well, more than dressed up. He also fully accepted the role of the famous, selfless hero. “He took to it really well,” said Mrs. Millsaps. She told the tale of how Mason, despite never having been acquainted with the Superman mythos be- Check and Title Cash Payday Advance Car Title Loans Pawn Shop Now Inside Firearms, Electronics, Tools, Jewelry and more fore that Halloween, knew exactly how to tame the skies: by lifting his arms in that classic Superman pose, so he could “fly.” In fact, his perfect— destined, perhaps?—stint as Superman was more than enough to convince his family to add the word “super” to his old nickname of “NooDy.” He is now Super NooDy, day in and day out. He still wears the cape from time to time, in fact, even as he continues to amaze those around him with his sheer gumption and tenacity. His family and supporters have not missed the significance of it all, either. “It’s what he is,” said Mrs. Millsaps. “He is a superhero. He’s teaching the world it is okay to be different.” But even Superman needed some help from time to time. And doesn’t most every superhero have a trusty companion, a sidekick on whom he can thoroughly rely? Super NooDy is no different. Despite the great bravery and faith he and his family have displayed throughout the years, having a little help would be a great benefit to them. Enter in 4 Paws for Ability.

The Millsaps family has signed a contract with 4 Paws for just that reason. They hope to give Super NooDy his very own sidekick, one that will stick with him through thick and thin. And then some. “The dog will be specially trained for him,” said Carrie. How so? The dog will be a trueblue pal to Mason, ready for all the hugs and kisses and adventures Super NooDy can dish out. It will comfort him during Page 5 - The BUZZ wearisome trips to the doctor. During those long, sleepless nights, the courageous canine will be right there in his room, never far away. It will also provide some stability on uneven surfaces—such as those previously insurmountable hills. It will even be able to open doors, push buttons, and retrieve dropped items for its best buddy. “It’s independence for [Mason],” said Mrs. Millsaps. The young superhero will have the idea he is taking care of the dog, even as the dog is taking care of him. Either way, it will be a confidence-booster. But the dog will also be a great benefit for Mason’s parents and older brother Matt. It will be trained in search and rescue, and will be able to alert Mr. and Mrs. Millsaps if Mason is ever up at night or leaving the house. And since Mason will be tethered to the dog, he will not be able ti run off on some wild adventure without supervision. “The peace of mind we’ll have?” said Mrs. Millsaps. “Priceless.” But teaching a dog to do all this does not come cheap. In fact, it costs around $22,000 to train the dog. The Millsaps must raise $13,000 of that total themselves. And this is where you can help the little superhero with a big heart!

In the first period, both offenses took control early while the defenses stayed in the looker rooms. Madisonville's Eric Hawkins and John Wiggins made two baskets for four points each, Kayne Roberts made a basket and two free throws, giving him four points, Austin Harmon and Dylan Moses both made a lay-up for two points apiece, and Josh Brewster tossed in two free throws for two points. However, the Tigers matched that effort: Beavers made three shots for six points, Long and Watts scored five points apiece, and Stewart made a bucket for two points, and after one quarter of play the game was all knotted up at 18-18. But the second period was the big difference in the contest, Madisonville's offense kept scoring the points, but its defense showed up in a big way, completely shutting down the Tigers and outscoring them 19-0. Harmon made two lay-ups and drilled a three-pointer, giving him seven points. Roberts made three baskets for six points, Joc Upton made two lay-ups for four points, and Wiggins hit a shot for two points, and after two quarters of play Madisonville had increased its lead to 37-18. The Tigers closed in on that lead in the third period, outscoring the Eagles 18-14. Williams hit two three-pointers, a lay-up, and two free throws for 10 points, Watts made a couple of baskets for four points, and Crowder and Long had a bucket for two points apiece. Madisonville's Roberts and Harmon had a couple of baskets for four points each and Eli Beard, Hawkins, and Moses each made a shot for two points, and after three quarters of play Madisonville led 51-36.

Daniel Charles Williams, 38, of Beech Springs Road, Ocoee pleaded to burglary and theft over $1,000, accepting two eight-year terms to be served concurrently, or at the same time. His charges stemmed from a July 2011 incident and a grand jury indictment in April 2012. Austin Jeremiah Frank, 24, of Ballplay Road, Madisonville took a fiveyear sentence for a June 2012 aggravated burglary and a four-year stretch for a July 2012 burglary, following his plea. Dismissed was theft over $1,000. Judge Carroll Ross ruled the sentences would be suspended after 90 days in jail, ordering Frank to pay restitution of $1,200 to a Sweetwater victim and $1,000 in joint recompense with another defendant to a Madisonville party in monthly amounts of no less than $75. Gregory Ray Cathey, 28, of Rond Ridge Road, Tellico Plains reaped an eight-year prison confinement suspended after four months in jail in a plea agreement on Monday, admitting guilt in an August 2012 aggravated assault and resisting arrest, which was good for a second plea that earned him six months probation. Ross ordered Cathey to pay a fine of $150. In other court pleas: Tammie Renee Aaron, (See Court pg 16) AUTO INSURANCE Cancelled Non-Renewed Need SR-22? No Prior Insurance?

The motion then passed with all ayes. The city board immediately turned its attentions to reports from the city’s individual departments. First up was Alderman Garren, representing the Public Works Department. He had little to report, other than to say everything was going well for the department. There had been no complaints. Currently, Public Works is preparing for snow. Alderman Brown followed that report with one of his own. His update revolved around the recent goings-on of the Vonore Fire Department. During the month of October, the fire department answered the following calls: EM assists (13), accident involving moving vehicles (4), false alarms (3), brush fires (2), car fire (1), and a house fire (1). In total, the Vonore Fire Department responded to 24 calls. The Parks and Recreation Department’s report was spearheaded by Alderman Evans. He updated the board on the grant the department recently received. A few folks, including Evans himself, attended a workshop in Knoxville. While there, they learned the town must have an appraisal on part of its match regarding the grant. The department is currently pursuing this matter. Alderman Evans next reminded all those gathered about the upcoming Christmas festivi- ties in Vonore. The Christmas Parade is scheduled for December 8, beginning at 4 p.m. Line-up for the parade starts at 3 p.m. The dedication ceremony for the Christmas tree will begin at 5 p.m., with the lighting of the tree to come at 6 p.m. There will be several more events going down that evening, too. Alderman Evans mentioned not only some singing of carols, courtesy of a community choir, but also a reading of both the Christmas story and “The Night Before Christmas.” He encouraged people to bring a lawn-chair to the celebration. Alderman Hammontree gave the report for the Vonore Police Department. October had proven to be a quite month for the department, said Hammontree. And that could only be a good thing. Mayor Summey took a few moments to share some comments of his own. For the past couple of months, things have been running well throughout the city. Mayor Summey commended the departments for their hard work, and encouraged them to keep it up. He also informed the board members and the audience that work on Food City has begun. There was only one matter of Old Business to tend to on Tuesday night. An ordinance amending the town’s current zoning ordinance faced its second reading. Alderman Garren made a motion to approve the ordinance on its second reading. Alderman Evans seconded the motion, and it passed with all in favor. The city board then moved on to New Business. It discussed a resolution to establish a new sewer rate for the city. The board had put off increasing these rates for as long as it possibly could. But while matters are working out just fine during dry weather, the city is losing money when wet weather hits. Even the state has recommended an increase (and, indeed, costs for TASS have already increased) to help stem loss of funds. Alderman Garren thus recommended that the minimum payment be raised to $21. Per 7,000 gallons, the new cost would be $780. Alderman Garren put this recommendation in the form of a motion. Alderman Evans seconded the motion, and the measure passed with all ayes. There was no more decision-making to come before the board, but a couple of the members have a few final comments to make. Alderman Garren first stated his appreciation for all the hard work Alderman Evans and the Parks and Recreation Department have been doing. Alderman Evans was quick to share his own gratitude for the support the Public Works Department has shown. With nothing more to discuss, Alderman Garren made a motion to adjourn for the evening. He was quickly seconded by Alderman Brown. And so the meeting ended at 7:15 p.m..

The measure passed (Continued from pg 1) with all in favor. some very special guests. Director Miller called Commissioner Sam Moser forward. Development Officer Scott Wilson, though absent, was also recognized. These two men represented the city’s Planning Commission, whom the Board of Education wished to thank for its continued support and service—especially when it has come to the recent construction projects. “They go above and beyond,” said Director Miller, presenting Commissioner Moser with a certificate of gratitude. There were no committee reports, so the board immediately jumped into the consent agenda. The consent agenda contained not only the adoption of the meeting agenda, but also an approval of the minutes from the October meeting, an approval of the financial report, and a personnel report. Personnel wise, there has been one hire since the previous meeting; Josh Carpenter is now a part of the SES faculty. Mr. Moser also requested a correction be made to the October minutes. That modification was made, and Vice-Chairman Dacus made a motion to accept the items on the consent agenda. Ms. Oggs seconded the mo- Commissioner Moser took to the floor again during Unfinished Business. He brought with him an update on the new SCS administration building and the BIS projects. Both progress-reports were based on the job-progress meeting held on October 31.

He anticipated they would close up work in as little as four to five weeks. Page 9 - The BUZZ The first order of New Business was a review of policies from sections A and B. Before jumping into those polices, Dr. Fox made a motion to accept the review of the unmentioned policies in sections A and B. He was quickly seconded, and the measure passed with all ayes. The first policy was Policy AFC. It deals with Emergency Closings. There had been one change made to this policy. Before now, if inclement weather caused a school closing or an early dismissal, activities scheduled with students (such as a basketball game) would either be postponed or out- Need A Little Help Around The House?

The Executive Committee had the power to allow an exception to this rule, provided there was a good reason. The proposed change in policy swings this power from the Executive Committee to the Director of Schools. Mr. Moser made a motion to accept the modified Policy AFC on its first reading. He was seconded by Vice-Chairman Dacus, and it passed with all ayes. The second policy was Policy BBD, which deals with board and director relations. As with Policy AFC, there had been only one change made to BBD. The change noted that the Director of Schools might not only be a “him,” but also a “her”—as the case is now. Dr. Fox made a motion to accept the modified Policy BBD on its first reading. Vice-Chairman Dacus seconded the motion. The measure passed with all ayes. The last policy up for discussion was Policy BCAA. It deals with meetings, specifically annual or organizational meetings. One item had been added to the policy. It stated: The chairman of the Board may serve for no more than four consecutive one-year terms, after which a one year leave is required. This modified Is Your Roof in Need of Repair?

Dr. Fox seconded the motion, and it passed with all ayes. Jennifer Underwood, the new Health Director of Coordinated School Health, followed that round of decision-making. She shared an update on recent CSH activities with the Board of Education and a captivated audience. In recent weeks, CSH has overseen many, many health screenings. K through 6th is now complete. Ms. Underwood has also visited with school nurses bi-weekly, and bought an XBOX Kinect for SES and BIS. CSH has also bought a new sound system for SPS and some new P.E. curriculum for SJHS. Mornings in Motion are going down at SPS and SES, announced Ms. Underwood. The Let’s Dance program has also started at BIS; the Health Director even showed pictures of some grooving kids from just such a class. Child Health Care Week was a huge success, too, and some familiar mustaches popped up not long ago—thanks to the CSH partnership with the Got Milk? campaign. Ms. Underwood was also pleased to announce CSH has received a TSBA Health Schools grant, and has applied for several more. CSH and its supporters have a lot to (See Sweetwater pg 10) Page 10 - The BUZZ OPEN HOUSE SUNDAY 1-3 November 16, 2012 305 Ashton Way Madisonville All brick home, hardwood floors, 9'ceilings and a custom kitchen.

A fitness/self-esteem/leadership program for girls at SJHS is now in the works. CSH is also planning a 5K, and Ms. Underwood would love to have a community garden one day. Principal Rodney Boruff followed that report with one of his own, only his revolved around the goings-on of Sweetwater Junior High School. “There are a lot of good things going on at Sweetwater Junior High,” he said. Of special note is the increased enrollment at the school, especially in the seventh grade. Last year, there were 128, and now there are 199. In total, SJHS has 336 students, but next year there may be as many as 360. These larger classes have presented many challenges for the teachers and other staff members, but Principal Boruff praised his faculty. They have risen to the occasion, he said, and continue to do excellent work. There is one new teacher at SHJS. Ms. Phillips now oversees 8th grade math. Principal Boruff was also pleased to announce the arrival of an ICU/Study Hall class. This class not only helps accommodate the large body of students, but also helps students catch up with their work. SJHS is also starting to departmentalize Music and Art, and one of the results of this decision is the highly successful Art Crafter’s Friday. “We have some very good teachers at Sweetwa- ter Junior High,” added Principal Boruff. Case in point, he shared the school’s Performance Level Summary Report. There were improvements in most ever subject, but especially so when it came to Math. Last year, performance levels were at 23 percent. This year, they jumped up to 57 percent. SJHS is also hitting the state’s Writing Score goal of 4.2. And it is blowing away the state’s Attendance Goal. The state’s goal is 93 percent. SJHS is at 95 percent for daily attendance. Discipline-wise, referrals are up from last year. Most of these referrals are due to the increased enrollment as a whole, but Principal Boruff acknowledged it was an area the school needed to work on. However, the student body of SJHS has proven it is, when push comes to shove, a very good one. The school met in the auditorium for an hour on Monday morning, and Principal Boruff praised the students for their excellent behavior during that time. Principal Boruff concluded his presentation by sharing a video the Desktop Publishing Class submitted to a state contest. After Principal Boruff’s State of the School report, the board had a report of its own. This one was a report on the recent TSBA convention. Vice-Chairman Dacus acknowledged one presentation on jobs (and the possible lack of them in the future) was rather depressing, but one inspirational speaker lifted her spirits. The board members attended several workshops at the convention as well, including one on collaboration. Vice- Chairman Dacus suggested looking into a collaboration project, which could help when it comes to finding textbooks and professional development. Next up was a possible adoption of a resolution. This resolution would be sent to Congress, concerning sequestration of federal money. In it, the Sweetwater Board of Education would urge Congress to reinstate the money for education in 2013. Dr. Larry Stein offered his own support for the resolution, but also pushed the board to also email the state representatives, Washington, and other leaders about the issue at hand. “This is beyond party lines,” said Dr. Stein. “This is our children’s education.” Vice-Chairman Dacus made a motion to not only adopt the resolution, but also to send it on to Congress. Ms. Oggs seconded the motion, and it passed with all ayes. Chairman Rowe brought up the next item on the agenda: the consideration of a December meeting. He reminded those gathered there is no December meeting, unless need should arise. If such a case should come about, the Sweetwater Board of Education would need to give a seven-day notice to the newspapers. With that in mind, Mr. Moser made a motion to postpone the December meeting. He was seconded by Ms. Oggs, and the measure passed with all ayes. Director Miller began her report by recognizing both Sweetwater Elementary School and Sweetwater Junior High School. Both schools have received letters from the Department of Education, naming them on the Cusp of being a Reward School. Only the top 5 percent in the state can make claim to being a Reward School. Director Miller then fell into her State of the System report. There were several celebrations to be announced on Monday night. Writing scores are an A across the board, and the Sweetwater School District has been confirmed as commanding Exemplary Status. As aforementioned, SES and SJHS are Cusp of Reward Schools. Finally, there has been improvement in proficiency in most every subject. There were some challenges before the district, however. These were fifth grade value-added scores, sixth grade achievement, and seventh grade reading/language arts achievement. However, Director Miller expressed her confidence that the schools could meet these challenges. Academic Achievement continues to progress upward. The Annual Measurable Objectives were especially telling, especially when compared to the state. In Math, the district has improved vastly from last year—and then some! In Value-Added RCs, the scores jumped form a D in 2011 to an A in 2012. Reading/Language Arts is also in fair standing in the AMOs. Here are some schoolachievement grades, with C being the average score. Sweetwater Elementary and Sweetwater Primary: Reading/Language Arts (B), Math (A), Science (B), and Social Stud- ies (B). Brown Intermediate: Reading/Language Arts (C), Math (B), Science (C), Math (C), Social Studies (B). Sweetwater Junior High: Reading/Language Arts (D), Math (C), Science (C), Social Studies (B). The Sweetwater School District continues to make improvements, said Director Miller. New hires are being made, to find just the right people for the job. There has been an increased teaming of teachers, too, as well as Professional Learning Committees at all schools. The district has had targeted professional development as well. Director Miller concluded her report by stating, yes, it would be hard to maintain all the improvements the district has seen. Especially so now, because of valueadded scores, which mean improvement must be made to previous improvements. But Director Miller had faith the Sweetwater School District would be able to do just that. Before adjourning for the evening, Principal David Matlock of Brown Intermediate was pleased to announce the school’s 6th-grade Math Team has won a team competition.

Since Wednesday, 15 Palestinians have been killed and over 100 others injured. Meanwhile, Syrian rebels on Wednesday took control of almost all the villages near the frontier with the Israel-held Golan Heights, where Israeli defense officials said government forces were displaying “ever-diminishing efficiency.” Stray mortar shells from the fighting into Israel have heightened fears the conflict could widen into a war with the Jewish state. The ruling Communist Party of China on Thursday picked a new sevenperson leadership group headed by Xi Jinping, giving the assembly at least five years to run the world’s second-largest economy. Xi became the party’s secretary and will direct the country, which is facing serious environmental, political, and social questions in coming years. British oil giant BP agreed on Wednesday to pay the largest criminal penalty in U.S. history for the 2010 oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico, a total of $4.5 billion, according to one anonymous person near the agreement. The person also said two BP PLC employees face manslaughter charges over the deaths of 11 persons in the explosion of the Deepwater Horizon oil rig that triggered the huge spill. South African police arrested a man accused of smuggling 220 diamonds out of the country in his digestive tract, using Johannesburg’s main airport. Officials said authorities fetched the gems from the 25-year-old Lebanese national bound for Dubai with the help of laxatives. Speaking of bling, a flawless deep-blue diamond sold at auction on Wednesday at a record price of 10.27 million Swiss francs, or $10.86 million, London-based jeweler Laurence Graff announced on Thursday. The drop-shaped stone weighed 10.48 carats and was the size of an almond. And the title of “The World’s Biggest Liar” went up for grabs at northwestern England’s Bridge Inn on Thursday, a competition in honor of 19th-century Bridge Inn landlord, Will Ritson, a renowned fibber. Lawyers and politicians are barred from the event, which permits contestants five minutes to impress judges with a convincing whopper. (Last year’s winner: Glen Boyland, with a tale of racing snails with Prince Charles.)
