Some barriers prevent students

Free meals at schools prevent many children from lowincome families from going
hungry. The Metro Nashville
Public School (MNPS) system
also offers lunches to these children during the summer and
holiday breaks. However, an
analysis of the summer lunch
pilot program revealed that
some kids didn’t have access to
meals during extended learn-

ing programs due to some significant barriers.
Officials at the Department
of Extended Learning cited
extreme weather and transportation as the two main reasons some students were not
showing up to programs they
had signed up for in which hot
meals were provided to kids
and their parents.
The department also had
trouble communicating with
parents that could have benefit-

ed from the programs, but didn't know about them, as well as
getting the word out concerning the free meals. The food
was paid for through the U.S.
Department of Agriculture,
similar to the grant used during the school year to pay for
free or reduced-cost meals for
low-income students.
However, school leaders have
seen the summer grant money

Over the next several
weeks, thousands of hummingbirds will be feeding in
Nashville and across Middle
Tennessee in preparation for
migration. As for our mid-TN
summer resident hummingbirds, some may have already
left but the bulk of them are
feeding heavily now.
As for where they are coming from, many hummingbirds that summered as far as
Michigan and Canada, for
example, have already entered
the area in route to their summer homes in the south.
“We can expect to see great
hummingbird activity at our
feeders for another 3 or 4
weeks before we see a real
decrease in numbers,” John
Carreau of the The Wood
Thrush Shop said.
The birds often migrate to
the U.S in the spring from their
winter homes in central and
South America, typically arriving here or passing through at
the end of March, first of April.
“Many people that live in
more rural areas, like myself,
will see some hummingbirds
well into October,” Carreau said.

Free Lunch...
preparation and delivery over
holiday breaks run dry.
Jennifer Bell, with the school
system’s office for Extended
Learning, said the summer
pilot program allowed four
schools to provide free meals.
The school locations were difficult for some parents to get
to, which made reaching
those families impossible.
“We are analyzing the program before we revisit it for
next year. So far, we know that
we need to increase access,”
Bell said.
This analysis includes
learning from successful nonprofit organizations, like
Second Harvest Food Bank,
which, over the summer,
served more than 250,000
breakfast and lunch meals at
109 sites across Davidson
County compared to the
school system's 56,000 summer meals. Bell’s department
is proud of both these numbers and said they are taking
steps to learn from Second
Harvest.
A new partnership between MNPS and Second
Harvest, called Child and
Adult Care Food Program
(CACFP), gives meals to stu-
dents involved in the after
school programs Head Start
and Early Head Start. While
this helps the non-profit and
the school system combine
resources, the funds stop short
of the weekend when MNPS
often holds some of their
extended learning programs.
“The challenge with the
MNPS programs is that they
will meet on Saturdays,”
Metropolitan Action Commission Public Information
Officer Lisa McCrady said.
“Although Second Harvest
sees this as a great way to
keep students engaged, the
grant option that we are
currently under only covers
the five-day school week.”
According to McCrady, they
cannot afford the additional
costs of weekend staff needed
to prepare and serve the meals.
MNPS will soon decide if
funding school lunch programs
during winter breaks is possible. During this year’s winter
storms that left thousands of
students across Nashville without access to a school lunch,
Second Harvest handed out box
lunches at a handful of locations across Nashville. The
school system continues to be
inspired by that effort, and
hopes to learn how it can help
more students and parents in
need of hot meals.
An Emergency Alert Test will send text
messages to your cell phone on Sept 1
The Tennessee Emergency
Management Agency and the
Tennessee Association of
Broadcasters, and its members,
will conduct a statewide test of
the Integrated Public Alert and
Warning System (IPAWS) to
deliver a voluntary Emergency
Alert System (EAS) message
and a Wireless Emergency
Alert (WEA) at 2:30 p.m., CDT,
on Thursday, September 1.
The test is a collaborative
effort to raise awareness about
the importance of emergency
preparedness and in recognition of September 2016 as
National Preparedness Month.
“This year, in Tennessee and
across the nation, natural and
human-caused disasters have
taken lives, destroyed homes
and damaged roads and infrastructure,” TEMA Director
Patrick Sheehan said. “While
we live in some of the safest
times in history, these fires,
storms, flash-floods, heatwaves,
tornadoes, accidents, and active
shooter tragedies serve as
reminders of the importance of
being aware of the potential
threats around us and to prepare ourselves and our loved
ones. This statewide EAS
test message will recognize
National Preparedness Month
and emphasize the importance
of emergency preparedness.”
The test messages will allow
TEMA to assess its operational
readiness to alert and warn the
public during statewide disasters and emergencies. The message will be as follows:
“This is a statewide test of
the Emergency Alert System.
This is only a test. September
is National Preparedness
Month. The Tennessee Emergency Management Agency,
Tennessee Association of
Broadcasters and this station
are reminding you how important it is to be ready for disasters and emergencies. Take
some time to prepare an emergency kit for your home, office,
and vehicle, and have an
emergency plan so you and
your family are ready. Visit
www.tnema.org for information.”
The EAS test is designed to
have limited impact on the public and there is no Federal
Communications Commission
(FCC) regulatory liability for
stations that choose not to participate.
“TAB’s radio and television
membership is looking forward
to partnering with TEMA,”
TAB President Whit Adamson
said. “We know this statewide
test is the perfect warmup for
the national test scheduled on
September 28, which will be
coordinated with the FCC and
Federal Emergency Management Agency.”
Also on September 1, just after
2:30 p.m., CDT, Tennesseans,
and those travelling through
the state, will receive the following WEA, or text message,
on their mobile devices:
“September is National Preparedness Month, make sure
you are ready for the next disaster.”
Authorized alerting authorities can use WEA to send emergency text messages through
mobile carriers. WEA messages include a special tone and
vibration, repeated twice, to
alert callers. The message also
will display the type and time of
the alert. More information on
WEA is available at: www.fema.

Gun Jobs...
This fall the manufacturer,
Gunmaker Vantage LLC, is taking over a 22,000-square-foot
facility on Murfreesboro Road,
where employees will begin
assembling the company’s signature shotguns.
“Over the last five years,
Tennessee’s manufacturing sector has posted the second-largest
GDP increase in the Southeast,”
ECD Commissioner Randy Boyd
said. “Vantage’s decision to
invest in Tennessee is a testament to our state’s thriving manufacturing sector and our
pipeline of workforce talent that
can meet the needs of advanced
manufacturers.”
Vantage’s founders are also
the founders of Crye Precision,
which specializes in making
apparel and equipment for military and law enforcement. The
N.Y.-based company is named
after one of the founders, Caleb
Crye.
In regard to choosing Nashville for their new location, in a
release the company said that
the area is unwavering in its
support of innovation.
“We’ve come to the clear conclusion that Tennessee, and
Nashville specifically, offers a
top-notch workforce,” Gregg
Thompson, co-founder of
Vantage, said. “It’s an under-
statement to say that we are
ecstatic to build this operation
and this brand in Tennessee. It’s
truly a perfect fit.”
The company expects to
invest $5 million into the plant.
In April, Beretta USA, the
Italian gunmaker, opened a
156,000-square-foot facility in
Gallatin. In total, the two manufacturing plants are expected to
bring 400 manufacturing jobs to
the Nashville area.
Over the next five years, the two companies will bring 400+
jobs to the Nashville area.

Volunteer Program (RSVP) will
sponsor the 2nd annual “Fill the
Truck” event at select area
Kroger stores in Davidson and

these USO centers.
Volunteers are needed from
11 a.m. - 2 p.m., to hand out donation suggestion flyers and to collect non-perishable snacks and
food items that will be delivered
to the USO Welcome Centers.
“9/11 is a day of history,

FiftyForward RSVP Director
Robin Johnson. “For Americans,
on this 15th year anniversary, it
is also a day of service that provides an opportunity to join
neighbors and local leaders to
rekindle the compassion and
unity shown on that day.”

Metro/State
Commentary

MTSU Business Professor
Former Metro Councilman
Clintonʼs documents need more scrutiny
Back on July 5, FBI Director
James Comey publicly announced he would not recommend to Attorney General
Loretta Lynch that Hillary
Clinton be indicted for her
extremely negligent handling
of emails pertaining to classified government information,
even though many other individuals have been indicted for
far lesser serious similar violations.
Since Comey’s exoneration
of Clinton, her dishonesty
problems have piled up, with
new revelations leaking out
every few days. Two revelations are particularly damaging to Clinton’s already battered character. One pertains
to the Clinton Foundation – Bill
and Hillary’s non-profit organization that funds charitable
endeavors around the globe,
and the other is that the FBI
found 15,000 work-related documents that Clinton failed to
turn over, these in addition to
the 30,000 emails originally
turned over. Thus, the Clinton
campaign’s statement that only
30,000 emails on her server
were related to work was
another lie since the new find
puts the number closer to
45,000.
But, that is not the worst of
it. It has become apparent that
the real reason Clinton set up
private email servers in the
first place and then attempted
to wipe them clean was to hide
the overlap between top donors
to the foundation and the
access it gained them to
Clinton as secretary of state,
resulting in a blatant conflict of
interest. That access seriously
questions the impartiality of
decisions she made while secretary, as well as potential conflicts of interest she would be
confronted with as commander
in chief if she is elected president.
At least 60 companies that
lobbied the State Department
during her tenure donated
more than $26 million to the
Clinton Foundation; 55 percent
of Clinton’s meetings and calls
with people outside of the government were donors to the
foundation; and more than 40
percent of the foundation’s top
donors are from foreign countries (many of whom have a history of human rights abuses).
According to a review of
State Department calendars
released so far to The
Associated Press, at least 85 of
154 people from private interests, who met or had phone
conversations scheduled with
Clinton while she was secretary of state, donated to the
foundation or pledged commitments to its international programs. Combined, these 85
donors contributed as much as
$156 million, while at least 40
donated more than $100,000
each and 20 gave more than $1
million each. In summary,
those 85 people who donated
$156 million breaks down to an
average contribution of $1.8
million, and over half of nongovernmental people Clinton
either met with or spoke to on
the phone during her four
years as secretary of state were
donors to the foundation.
“Pay to play” has not been
officially proved yet, but the
cloud of corruption surrounding Clinton keeps getting darker week by week. Clinton’s
“trust me” defense that donations to the foundation were
totally isolated from her official business at State and that
the 30,000-plus emails permanently deleted from her private
email server were because they
were entirely personal (e.g.,
regarding yoga and daughter
Chelsea’s wedding) is not a
credible defense.
Adding insult to injury,
seven months after a federal
judge ordered the State Department to release monthly
the detailed daily schedules
showing meetings by Clinton
while she was secretary of
state, the department now says
it won’t finish the job before
election day. How ridiculous,
but so convenient for Mrs.
Clinton.

Citizen Police Academy seeks new recruits
Nashvillians interested in
learning about the inner workings of local law enforcement
strategies are invited to apply
for the free 11-week course. It
will be the 35th session since
the Citizen Police Academy
began in 1995.
Classes will be held on
Monday nights from 6 - 9 p.m.
through December 5th in the
community room of the
Madison Precinct, 400 Myatt
Drive. Because class size is limited, interested persons are
urged to apply now. The deadline for applications is Tuesday,
September 6th.
Participants will learn about
police work through the perspective of a variety of guest
speakers, including members
of the police department’s spe-
cialized components. Topics
will include gangs, narcotics
enforcement, domestic violence, traffic/DUI enforcement,
internet crimes, emergency
preparedness, crime prevention and the judicial process.
There will also be a tour of the
Emergency Communications
Center and a demonstration
by the Aviation, Canine and
Mounted Units.
“The Citizen Police Academy
is absolutely the best way to
learn the most about the
Metropolitan Nashville Police
Department,” Chief Steve
Anderson said. “Participants
will most assuredly graduate
with knowledge about police
work they didn’t have before.”
Each applicant should commit to attending at least 9 of the
11 sessions, be a Davidson
County resident/business owner
at least 21 years old, and have no
arrest record (excluding minor
traffic violations). While completion of the course gives citizens an understanding of the
workings of the Metropolitan
Nashville Police Department, it
does not make a participant a
certified law enforcement officer, nor is it designed to train
citizens to perform law enforcement duties. Applications can
also be submitted on the
Inter net by logging onto

ment/Get-Involved/C i t i z e n Police-Academy.aspx

Taxing
Matters
By Jim Wilson, CPA
Good Counsel for Business Owners and Others
Do you encounter quirky, irritable, and down right difficult customers, clients and/or patients? I
think all CPAs have faced difficult
clients: those who complain, wait
until the last minute to provide
information, treat people rudely,
or don't pay their bills. These situations can turn into nightmares
for accounting firms and for
sales associates and professionals in any business.
It is understood that some
demanding clients and customers
present challenging situations
and are encountered by most
businesses. If you “cover all the
bases” and think everybody is
happy or at least content, small
fires may break out at any time.
Our business deals with very
touchy subjects: tax preparation,
compilation of financial statements, bank reconciliations and
fraud engagements. In your business, you may have areas that are
more sensitive than others.
Managing and retaining clients,
customers and patients is "not a
perfect science and really is an art."
Dealing with the public can result
in hurt feelings on both sides of the
encounter. But there are steps you
can follow to minimize conflict or
tension that arises due to miscommunication or other issues.
Open communication. Be open
and use good communication
skills. Confront the problem
before it has time to erupt. If a
conflict occurs, use tact and communicate your willingness to
avoid hurtful situations. If your
client, customer, or patient calls,
return the call immediately and
consider their feelings as you
would want yours considered.
Discuss the engagement. While
you are working with your client,
customer or patient, be clear
about what is required of them
and you. In CPA work, we have an
engagement letter to express
expectations for us and others.
Develop relationships. The best
way to build relationships is to
consider what you would require
from someone else. Treat your
customers, clients and patients
the way you want to be treated.
self and respond the way you
would want to be treated.
Realize a challenging client
isn't all bad. Discuss the rules
applicable to your position. Be
willing to be kind, but you can
challenge if the client is clearly
wrong. Be kind, but firm.
Let them go and wish them
well. If the friction warrants, just
invite them to seek assistance
elsewhere. It is better to lose a
sale than to continue in strife.

John A' s Break f ast: U.S.
Rep. Jim Cooper stopped by for
breakfast at John A’s restaurant. He said he was there to
pay tribute to John A. Hobbs
who each month holds what
Cooper called "Metro’s greatest
community gathering."
Mayor Megan Barry had
breakfast there too, bringing
along her own coffee mug.
“One of my mugs (has the logo)
for Metro’s police and the other,
the fire department emblem.
Every morning, I grab one or
the other of these mugs as I
think about the folks who serve
our city every day,” she said
from the podium. “We have
several of our fire folks helping
in Baton Rouge now because we
(in Nashville) know what it is
like to go through a flood.”
Author Julie Richardson
announced the debut of her
book, “John A. Hobbs: The Life
and Times of Music Valley’s
Visionary.” The release will be
on Feb. 11, 2017 which is John
A's birthday. Richardson told
the crowd, “John A. is a living
legend and an American hero.
He is an abundantly loved man
who, at the age of 88, continues
to play a significant role in the
rise of Music Valley and in the
history of country music.” You

The Evolution of An Old
Building
I can remember when the old
church building located on the
southeast corner of Edgehill
Avenue and 17th Avenue South
near Music Row was still an
Episcopal Church. In fact, it
was the old Church of the
Advent.
In 1973, the church congregation relocated to a new building
in the Brentwood area on
Franklin Pike.
Since then, that old church
building at Edgehill and 17th
has served in many capacities.
For a while, it was used as a
neighborhood center for the
YMCA. In 1977, the building
was transformed into a play
production theatre, and became
the Advent Theatre of the
Tennessee Performing Arts
Foundation. My family attended some of the professional
This building located on the corner of Edgehill and 17th Avenue once was an Episcopal
Church, then a neighborhood center for the YMCA, later the Advent Theatre of the
Tennessee Performing Arts Foundation, and now Ocean Way recording studios owned
today by Belmont University.

Betty Chiles Nixon passed away on Monday at age 80
Betty Chiles Nixon
Brenda Batey
Social Editor
Betty Chiles Nixon, former
Metro Nashville Council member, candidate for mayor and
active politician, died Monday
at age 80.
Nixon served three terms on
the Metro Council, from 1975 to
1987. Her district, number 18,
encompasses
areas
near
Vanderbilt and Belmont universities.
She was the first woman to
run for mayor of Nashville in
1987, when she lost to Bill
Boner. She again ran for mayor
in 1991, when Phil Bredesen
prevailed.
She was very active in supporting neighborhoods, especially the historic Vanderbilt
and Belmont neighborhoods,
fighting for preservation during times of rapid growth in the
city. She helped spearhead the
battle against urban renewal
and
the
construction
of
Interstate 440 during the late
1970s and early 1980s.
Ms. Nixon was active in the
political realm for more than
four decades and she campaigned for Megan Barry in the
mayoral race last year.
Continuing her support of
neighborhoods, she spoke at the
council this spring to resist an
apartment building developers
wanted to construct that she
said did not fit with the area’s
ambiance.
“Betty Nixon was an amazing woman, leader, and friend
who taught our city a lot of lessons about public service, the
importance of neighborhoods
and the power of women,"
Barry said in a statement.
“She was truly a unique personality who had the ability to
captivate a room with her wit
and wisdom," Barry said.
"Those of us who were fortunate to call Betty a friend are
better off because of it, along
with countless others who
never had the chance to meet
her but have benefited because
of her passion and commitment to a better Nashville for
all."
Ms. Nixon was the first
woman
to
chair
Metro
Council’s budget and finance
committee, a powerful position.
She also was the first woman to
run a statewide political campaign, which she managed for
Democratic presidential candidate Walter Mondale's campaign in Tennessee in 1984. In
1988, Nixon oversaw the winning campaign of U.S. Sen. Jim
Sasser.
Nixon was employed as
assistant vice chancellor for
community, neighborhood and
government
relations
at
Vanderbilt University from
1990 to 2007. Prior to that, she
worked for a short time in
Washington, D.C. for the U.S.
Senate subcommittee on intergovernmental relations.
Nixon chaired the board of
the Vanderbilt Bill Wilkerson
Center, which specializes in ear,
nose and throat diseases, and
communication disorders. She
also chaired the Davidson
County Election Commission
and was a board member of the
Nashville Electric Service.
“We are saddened by the loss
of the amazing Betty Nixon,"
Tennessee Democratic Party
Chair Mary Mancini said. "She
was not only a role model for
women, but for a generation of
activists and candidates she
befriended and helped with an
encouraging word, a bit of sage
advice, and an energy that was
as boundless as it was invigorating."
Gary Bynum, chairman of
the
Davidson
County
Democratic Party and a resident of Belmont-Hillsboro, said
candidates made it a practice to
first meet and speak with Nixon
before running for the council's
District 18 seat.
"There was a time in
Nashville that if you did anything, ran for office or even had
a big idea for the community,
you sought Betty's blessing,"
Bynum said. "You wanted it.
You wanted her wisdom, her
political acumen and her sup-
port. Her life laid the groundwork for what Nashville is
today.
“There was just such a huge
deal of respect for Betty. She
had such a great mind, especially political strategy, knowing
her community and just knowing Nashville in general,”
Bynum added.
A native Nashvillian and
graduate of Hillsboro High
School, Nixon earned a bachelor’s degree from Southern
Methodist University and an
MBA from Owen Graduate
School of Management at
Vanderbilt University.
Her husband, Henry Clark
who died in 2010, predeceased
Nixon. Survivors include her
children, Mignon Nixon and
Anne Nixon, and three stepchildren, Hank Clark, Becky Clark
Fuller, and Susan Clark.
Funeral services are pending.

Six weeks remain before planning decides
on expanding the Urban Service District
USD property tax rate is $4.516 per $100 of assessed value, compared to $3.924 per
$100 of assessed value in the GSD.
Residents of Nashville living in the General Service
District will get six weeks
before the Metro Council will
decide whether or not to move
them into the Urban Service
District.
Previously,
the
Metro
Planning Commission was set
to decide on the issue at a
Thursday, August 25, meeting
but Mayor Megan Barry
sent the commission a letter
requesting they defer consideration of the expansion of
the Urban Services District
(USD) until the first commission meeting in October
Households in the USD
receive city services currently not provided in the
GSD, mainly garbage collection, curbside recycling
and street lights.
(10/13) to give Council Members
and residents more time to
review the plan and determine
whether inclusion in the USD
is right for their neighborhoods.
“Allowing the public to
have a larger window in which
to review these proposals and
discuss the potential benefits
at their neighborhood associations or communities meetings is a better process for all,”
Mayor Barry said.
Barry hopes residents will
meet with their council members and learn more about
what a change might mean for
them.
With entry into the USD,
households will receive city
services currently not provided, mainly garbage collection,
curbside recycling and the
installation of street lights.
With so much growth in
rural parts of Davidson
County, Barry originally
asked the city planning department to start developing a
plan to bring city services to
parts of Hermitage, Donelson,
Bellevue and Antioch, currently in the general service
district.
“My administration’s intent in seeking a review of the
USD boundaries was to be
responsive to requests from
some Council Members to give
neighborhoods and communities the tools necessary to
ensure that their services
match the needs of a growing
city,” Barry said.
While the proposal would
not adjust tax rates, it would
place thousands of residents
into the higher USD property
tax rate bracket.
USD property tax rate is
$4.516 per $100 of assessed
value, compared to $3.924 per
$100 of assessed value in the
GSD.
“Ultimately, my desire is for
those areas that want to
receive the benefits of inclusion in the USD will have the
option to do so, while neighborhoods that prefer to stay in
the GSD will have that option
as well,” said Barry.
Indoor cart racing facility opens in Hermitage
After opening its doors on
August 27, Veloce Indoor
Speedway is Nashville’s newest
indoor race track. Located at
3432 Lebanon Pike in Hermitage,
the company brands itself as
an adrenaline-filled escape from
everyday issues and a champion
of customer service.
“We feel we can provide a
safe, fun, family friendly experience like none other in town,”
Veloce’s Managing Partner
John Hoffman said.
The company is growing
fast. Veloce will open a facility
in Knoxville, TN, at the end
of September. They also oper-
ate in Huntsville AL, and
Milwaukee WI. “We were looking to expand in a city that was
vibrant and had demographics
that fit our target market. The
Nashville area does not have
a facility like ours,” Hoffman
states.
Vintage Market at the historic Two Rivers Mansion
filled with antiques, vintage and nostalgia
The three-day, September 9 11, event promises to be a collector’s delight. From 10 a.m. to 5
p.m., visitors can stroll through
the historic lawn of the Mansion
and visit the booths of approximately 30 vendors selling everything from antique toys and
bicycles to vintage furniture,
jewelry, clocks and other offerings. If you are a collector or just
a lover of things from a by-gone
area, this is the show for you.
Live music and food trucks will
also be on-site for this fall
fundraiser to benefit Friends of
Two Rivers Mansion. Adult
admission is $10 and $2 for children. Adult admission includes
hourly tours of the historic
Two Rivers Mansion.

Belle Meade event commemorates
terrorist attacks
The event will be commemorating the 15th anniversary of
the 9/11 events.
Immanuel Baptist Church,
222 Belle Meade Blvd, is hosting
a community event on Sunday,
September 11, at 7 p.m., commemorating the 15th anniversary of the 9/11 events. The
Immanuel Choir and Orchestra
will present “The Armed Man:
A Mass for Peace” by British
composer Karl Jenkins. It features texts from Christianity
and Judaism, as well as historic
texts from India and modern
texts from Japan and Great
Britain.
The music is accompanied
by a silent video of footage
from the preparations for war,
the conflicts themselves, the
aftermath, and the quest for
peace. (As some of the texts
and scenes are not appropriate
for young children, child care
will be provided up to age 12.)
People of all faiths and cultures are warmly invited to
share this event.
Director of schools says he is fixing the issues raised
during a meeting with the Alliance for Green Hills
The lack of resources for
developmentally
challenged
students and the disparity
between classroom grades and
standardized test scores were
spotlighted during a community meeting that was moderated
by Metro Nashville Public
School System’s Director Dr.
Shawn Joseph.
These concerns were raised
by members of the Alliance for
Green Hills, a non-profit organization founded to advocate for
community improvements, last
week at Hillsboro Highschool
as part of a series of community meetings attended by Dr.
Joseph over a two-week period.
Dr. Joseph learned that in
some cases students were not
being given opportunities
beyond test preparation, like
project-based and group activities. Dr. Joseph said that students were also experiencing a
disparity between their standardized test scores, like on the
ACT, and their classroom
grades.
“If my son was getting good
grades in class, but then did
poorly on the ACT, I would
think something wrong is happening,” he added.
His
recommendations
include determining how teachers are managing their classroom time and rethinking
block scheduling so that time is
being used more efficiently.
The director also found that
Nashville lacks important
benchmarking data that would
allow the district to be compared against national norms.
He then acknowledged the trouble of setting goals without this
information and said the district is taking steps to record
student achievement through a
mixture of assessment tools.
He said that so far the
results have shown many trouble areas, but also recognized
these meetings is a first step in
creating a plan to fix them. Dr.
Joseph and his staff will organize the community feedback in
a report that is expected to
become available to the public
in September.

That was no pillow...
So we’re back to college, I
was at Target on White Bridge
Road on Saturday and it was a
mad house... elbow to elbow
with people, full of buggies and
everything. There were people
who have to be in a hurry to get
places and the most important
people in the world might I’ll
add. I was standing there waiting in line (the lines were
backed way down) and there
was a woman who was speeding
by with her buggy and she had
a pillow for her kid on top of a
cardboard box hanging out on
the other side with a sharp corner which dug into my back
when she ran into me and I
thought shelving at first had hit
me in the back. I didn’t know
she was coming and I yelled,
screamed it hurt so bad. She did
a drive by with it. When I yelled
she looked over at me and said,
“oh I only hit you with a pillow”
and I said, “no mam i wish you
had just hit me with a pillow
but you hit with me that cardboard box hanging out of your
cart and dug into my back” and
then she asked if I was hurt, am
I ok.

Why would a sane person
think a soft pillow hitting me in
the back would hurt? Are you
stupid? Why can’t people simply ask did I hurt you? “You hit
me with a pillow... no you didn’t
fool, you hit me with that cardboard box that dug a hole in my
back.” Why are people so arrogant?
Then after asking if I was
ok, she sped off to jump in front
of someone else in another line.
Unreal manners some people
have...
When you hurt someone just
ask if they are ok. Don’t tell
them when they scream oh, did
I hit you with a pillow? Bet she
thinks she is the most important mother.

tuition. We have a family saying, "I don't mine putting the
spoon in your month, but I
won't turn it over."
Wake up about smoking
To the newcomer from New
York who chooses to bash not
only the city but numerous
businesses for wishing to promote a healthy environment by
not allowing smoking--wake up
and stop being a bona fide idiot.
500,000 people die every year
from second hand smoke, and
you are so last Millenium for
ranting about your right to
smoke. Smoking is stupid, people who do it are stupid, those
who vape are twice as stupid, as
they smoke propylene glycol,
which is used for stripping
garage floors. Read the packages that correspond to the personal addiction you don't think
is serious enough to do anything about. I work downtown,
and the only thing I don't like
about working downtown is the
fact that there's no escape from
the second-hand smoke filling
the air--thanks to thoughtless
and selfish people like you who
pretend to have a claim on the
quality of air that others must
breathe. You can still smoke in
New York--take a one-way ticket
and see.
Admit she lied

I find it hard to swallow that
there aren't a few democrats
that will at least admit Hillary
lied and or went against policy
with her private email server.
Come on are they really representing the people or their
power. The facts are there. They
can still support her for president but can't they at least
admit she screwed up? It's not
going to be forgotten.
Get those cats neutered
and spade
Regarding cats in the condominiums, the writer mentioned
about someone is breeding
them. That is not what is
happening. Cats need to be
neutered and spade.
The Humane Association is
very active with that. People
will come and get the cats,
neuter and spade them and
then returned them to their
home.
Two later and still Lone
Oak projects going on
I just checked my diary two
years ago and the Lone Oak
projects blocking the roads
back then are still going on
today. The Lone Oak and
Shackleford area always have
some kind of blockage going on
where you can’t get through.
Also there is still not a traffic
light at Tyne Blvd and Granny
White where the backups happen everyday.
It’s been going on for years
and I do not understand why
they don’t try to relieve the traffic in Green Hills by making
those simple steps having a
light.
Possibly carrying a gun
again
I would like to make a comment on gun permits for
weapons. It just looks like
things are getting in bad shape

now. Don’t know what happened to America or where it
went but I’ve had a gun permit
for 25-30 years and I use to
carry it all the time. I go to
church, tried to change my life
and live right and so I have
stopped carrying it.
My wife has asked me in the
last two of months to start carrying my gun again. So much is
going on and you never know
what’s going to happen. Don’t
know where its going but its
going to have to get turned
around before it gets worse.
I know that I don’t want to
hurt anybody but I do not want
nobody to hurt my family or
myself because I love them
truly and my family means
more to me than all the money
in the world but if it means I
need to carry my gun again
that’s what I will do. I don’t
know where its going but I’ve
lived a long life and it use to not
be the way it is now.
I know God does not want it
the way it is now and some way
or another he is going to take
care of it.
Street collectors and
the Shriners
Calling one of my favorite
papers to read. I had to go to
Rivergate this morning to see
my mother-in-law who is in
assisted living and went
through all the traffic to see her.
I noticed at the four way stop at
Gallatin Road and Old Hickory
Blvd, there were least 5 or 6 different people on the street corners trying to collect money,
homeless this and homeless
that. I went up the road and it
was the same thing again all
the way through Rivergate.
You know, I had a lot of
friends that were Shriners and
the Shriners use to do that all
the time. What really got me is
they have stopped the Shriners
from doing that and you got
every yogo out there doing it
now and I think it’s really sad.
Right gets the right away
In an August issue, someone
commented on drivers in
Bellevue, they come to a four
way stop and they don’t know
when to go.
According to the Tennessee
Driver’s handbook, the rule is
the first person to the 4 way
stop has the right away to go
first. If two people get to the
four way stop at the same time,
then the person on your right
has the right away to go first. If
you’re on the person’s left, and
you both got there at the same
time then as I say “left them
behind” and you have the right
CALL OUR HOTLINE: 615-298-5597
away.
Simple as that, so just remember if you get there at the same
time, right gets the right away.
Google Fiber in Berry Hill
Hi, I was in Berry Hill the
other day near where I live and I
found out they are putting in
Google Fiber into the ground.
Now what I want to say is if they
are putting Google Fiber into the
ground and they still have all
these power lines ahead of us, on
top of us, making our neighborhoods looks crappy, taking down
the value of our property, and
then Google comes in here from
California and they start laying
pipe like it is their home town
business, then I want to say to
Google Fiber to get the heck out.
We don’t need your fast internet,
we need our telephone poles to
go into the ground and that way
we do not have to stop on the side
of the road. We can go ahead and
get some tacos, do whatever we
want and be free to roam. But
with all this construction and all
these political powers behind it,
we have a serious problem on
our hands.
Immigrants pay taxes too
Dear "If you're not a US citizen, what!?"
I am born and raised in the US
and even though the process of
naturalization has not been one I
have had to navigate I do consider it good knowledge right along
with our other state and federal
laws and basic legal processes.
Given the current climate of this
country toward immigrants and
the fringe hate groups that a certain bombastic presidential nominee has turned out I was not surprised to read your haughty,
angry tone or your lack of knowledge when expressing your discontent over the social security
web site addressing those who
are not a citizen and who are in
need of a replacement SS card. I
guess, like you seemed to lump all
immigrants into one Trump
tainted, angry pot, I had my own
assumptions about the writer on
the other end of that Ticked Off !
comment. Therefore, I was surprised to read you are of retirement age and do not know under
what circumstances a non US citizen would hold a valid social
security card. We have many lawful permanent residents (LPR) in
this country who hold a permanent resident card residing and
working in this country. They are
required to pay taxes just like you
Vintage
Market
BELLEVUE
Antique Mall
and me. You wrote "go back home
and come into this country the
proper way..." A proper way to
enter this country is to be a LPR
for a period of time before becoming eligible for naturalized citizenship. During that time a LPR
can be issued a social security
number, work and pay taxes as
the law requires. In some cases
some of those f/k/a aliens may
not become naturalized citizens
after spending years working,
opening businesses, employing
local citizens and paying a great
deal of money into the social
security system you claimed as
your own when you wrote "you
slackers are robbing those of us
that money truly belongs to".
There are many immigrants who
work in the US, setting up businesses, employing local US citizens and providing an economic
boost while helping families put
food on the table and pay their
electric bill. They too are paying
taxes that support our education
system, road maintenance, etc.

In continuing efforts to achieve strategic goals of

rights of all children to a quality
education.

The West End High School class of 1954 held a class
party at River Plantation in the club house, where they
enjoyed a barbecue meal by Peg Leg Porker.
The class graduated the same year the beloved principal, Dr. W. H. Yarbrough, retired from the school.
The class members cheered “All the Way for Doc” at
each sporting event, in honor of Yarbrough.
As a result of the excellence of the players and performers and the school spirit of the entire student body,
the football team defeated many local rivals, the baseball
team won the NIL championship, and the forensic, drama
and band won statewide awards.
Guests at the party included: Ralph Greenbaum, Whit

Our referral partner July - September
is the Siloam Family Health Center.
The Nashville Alumnae Chapter of Delta Delta Delta presented
the Eve of Janus to benefit the Tri Delta Pediatric
Hematology/Oncology Clinic at the Monroe Carell Jr. Children’s
Hospital at Vanderbilt to support the program’s vital contribution
in research, education and patient care.
Held at the Country Music Hall of Fame, The Signs of the
Times, outstanding young women who are selected to be honored,
were presented. Young men, known as Marshals, also are honored
and escort the Signs during the presentation.
The honorary chairman was Scott C. Borinstein, M.D., Ph.D.
and the junior honorary chairman was Parker Miles Logan.
The delicious dinner included a salad course with mixed greens
and entree with grilled filet with portobello mushroom sauce.
The Signs of the Times were then presented to the audience by
their fathers or representatives and the Marshalls escorted each
young woman off the stage.
After the presentation everyone chose from a selection of
desserts, including chocolate mudslide milkshake shooters, Meyer
lemon tarts with fresh raspberries, and more.
