The Institute has integrated iPads, shown below, into its curriculum because they are believed to improve social and communication skills, especially for children with autism. High-tech helpers IPads help students with autism communicate Staff Writer T wo-and-a-half-year-old Rowan Murray used to get so frustrated she would scream and throw tantrums, even breaking her mother’s nose in such a fit. She resorted to such outbursts because communication is difficult for her because she has autism. “She’s not a mean little kid,” said Rowan’s mother, Meghan Murray. “She’s a sweet kid. But when you’re thirsty and you can’t tell anybody, it’s mentally frustrating.” With the arrival of an iPad at Rowan’s school — Siskin Children’s Institute’s East Brainerd Early Education Center — and the use of her mother’s iPhone at home, the little girl now can communicate better with family and teachers. Children like Rowan have expand- Culverhouse ed access to iPads at school thanks to an anonymous donation, which funded the technology in all of the institute’s 21 classrooms at its East Brainerd and downtown locations.

With the device, teachers use some By Andy Sher Nashville Bureau Bill Haslam students and their families with food, clothing, tutoring and other issues. Meanwhile, Haslam also announced that he and the Tennessee State Employees Association have struck an agreement on his proposed changes to civil service laws that will make it easier to hire and fire state workers. “I think everybody agreed that the system we had was broken,” Haslam said of civil service requirements.

City planners recommended against rezoning, citing: ■ Significantly more traffic along Highways 153 and U.S. 27. ■ Unacceptable environmental effects on nearby land reserves. ■ Vacant commercial spaces along Highway 153 in need of redevelopment. ■ Insufficient public transport.

She hit a rock and the ATV began to roll over — backward. Price, 35, managed to shove her daughter off the four-wheeler before the machine fell straight back and landed on top of her, authorities said. The daughter was uninjured. Price died 30 minutes later from her injuries, said Whitfield County Coroner Bobbie Dixon, but authorities are waiting on the autopsy before they report the exact cause of death.

Siskin Institute teachers welcomed expanding iPad use after piloting them in their two ESCALATE classrooms, which use a specialized instruction style designed to focus teaching three skills that children with autism often lack: appropriate play behavior, communication and social skills.

Her teacher takes the cue and walks with her to a kidsized chalkboard, where Rowan gets busy drawing.

Bill Haslam announced Monday he is including a deeper cut in the state sales tax on groceries as part of an administration amendment to his proposed $30.2 billion spending plan for 2012-13. The move is just one of at least $25 million worth of changes the Republican governor is making. Others include boosting the state’s daily payments to local jails for housing state felons from $35 to $37 per prisoner per day at a cost of $4 million annually.

By Kevin Hardy 27 Da yto nB ou lev ard City planners recommend blocking a development that would level a Hixson hillside to create commercial space twice the size of Northgate Mall just miles down the road. The Chattanooga-Hamilton County Regional Planning Agency cited extreme traffic and environmental problems as reasons to oppose the project, according to a report released Monday. Developers want to put the 190-acre development near Highways 153 and U.S. 27, which both are projected to reach or exceed traffic capacity within the next three years. There are no scheduled improvements to the roads until 2025. The addition of 148 acres of commercial development and a 42-acre, 280-unit apartment complex would exacerbate that problem, the report states. “The Regional Planning Agency staff thinks it is reasonable for the site to be Yes: 62 percent No: 38 percent Listen to the 911 calls about the accident. to comment Monday. Police have ruled the Sunday afternoon death as accidental, but county authorities say this isn’t the first injury or death reported on the national forest trails. And they’re frustrated by the recent death. “It’s just a rough area,” said Whitfield County Fire Chief Carl Collins. “It was bad enough that probably 10 years ago the National Park Service bought us a fourwheeler to keep at their station so we have a way to get to people.” In the last five years, emergency crews have responded to at least eight injuries from accidents on ATV trails in the Whitfield County portion of the Chattahoochee-Oconee National Forest, said county 911 Director Jeff Ownby. There may be more accidents with injuries, he said, and officials with the national forest may have a more accurate number. On Monday, officials with the Chattahoochee-Oconee National Forest wouldn’t comment on the accident, citing an open investigation. The Whitfield County Sheriff ’s Office was called to investigate the death to make sure it was an accident, said Capt. Rick Swiney, but the sheriff ’s office doesn’t have any jurisdiction on the forest trails. “There’s nothing we can See ATV, Page A6 INDEX Business . . . . . . C1 Classified . . . . . .

He published a book in 2008 called “A Promise to Ourselves” about his personal experience dealing with divorce and his battle with Basinger over custody of their daughter.

Tim Robbins living without his TV BOGOTA, Colombia — Academy Award-winning actor Tim Robbins says his experience directing a play based on George Orwell’s “1984” has prompted a life choice as personal as it is political: He’s livhas ing without a TV. “I have done an experiment for the past three years: I got rid of my television. One of the things Orwell talks about in the book ‘1984’ is this thing called ‘the two-minute hate,”’ Robbins told reporters in Bogota on Monday. “People go in front of their television screens and they yell at the person they object to politically. I realized I had been doing that for two hours every day during (the administration of George W.) Bush. I said, ‘I’ve got to stop hating.’’’ Robbins’ Actors Gang production of “1984” is among nearly 200 works being performed during this year’s biennial IberoAmerican Theater Festival in Bogota. The production was adapted by Michael Gene Sullivan from Orwell’s 1948 dystopian novel about a totalitarian society where surveillance is pervasive, language is a weapon of suppression and TVs are used to spy on people. Robbins says he’s inclined to disconnect from all forms of mass communication and jettison his cellphone, which easily can be used to track one’s movements. “If you have a phone, they can find you whenever they want,” he said. “I personally would like to live on a farm with a rotary phone.” Robbins’ “1984” previously has appeared in festivals in Europe, Hong Kong, Australia and the United States. Willis, wife, Emma , have baby girl Bruce Willis arrives with his wife, Emma Heming, for the Golden Globe Awards in Beverly Hills, Calif. NEW YORK — Bruce Willis is a father again. The actor’s wife, designermodel Emma Heming Willis, gave birth Sunday in Los Angeles to a baby girl. They named their daughter Mabel Ray Willis, who weighed 9 pounds and 1 ounce. A statement Monday from Willis’ publicist said the couple are “overjoyed,” and both mom and baby are “healthy and doing beautifully.” This is the couple’s first child together. Willis, 57, and Heming, 33, were married in 2009. Willis has three daughters, 23-year-old Rumer, 20-year-old Scout and 18-year-old Tallulah, from his previous marriage to actress Demi Moore. Comedian Ansari mows lawn in park NEW YORK — “Parks and Recreation” star Aziz Ansari takes his parks persona seriously. On Monday, the actor and comedian helped New York City’s Central Park get ready for spring by lending a hand mowing its 15-acre Sheep Meadow on a riding lawn mower. Ansari was assisted by several park crew members, Aziz also riding Ansari lawn mowers. Central Park Conservancy spokeswoman Dena Libner says Ansari helped mow about an acre of the lawn. It’s used for relaxing and sunbathing. The city is reopening all of its park lawns and ball fields on Saturday. They’re fenced during the off-season so the grass can be hearty in the spring. Central Park gets more than 250,000 visitors a day. Ansari portrays parks employee Tom Haverford on the NBC comedy show. The Associated Press WALTER E. HUSSMAN JR.

The Volusia County Sheriff’s Office reports that several people at the Northgate Shopping Center in Deland called 911 around 7:20 p.m. Monday about the crash.

Of the seven fatalities, five died at the scene and another two at the hospital. Three wounded victims are in stable condition, he said. “This unprecedented tragedy was shocking and senseless,” Jordan said. Soon after the shooting, heavily armed officers swarmed the school in a large industrial park near the Oakland airport and, for at least an hour, believed the gunman could still be inside. A female victim said she person point-blank in the chest and one in the head. Tashi Wangchuk, whose wife attended the school and witnessed the shooting, said he was told by police that the gunman first shot a woman at the front desk, then continued shooting randomly in classrooms. Television video showed bloodied victims on stretchers being loaded into ambulances. Several bodies covered in sheets were laid out on a patch of grass at the school. One body could be seen being loaded into a van. The chief said Goh is a Korean national who’s a former student of the university. Regular Guttering Also! The Gutter that Never Clogs... Guaranteed! 50% OFF LABOR Warm March sets records in U.S. The Associated Press IT’S WARMER The average temperature in Chattanooga in March was 62.9 degrees, which was 10.7 degrees warmer than normal, according to the National Weather Service in Morristown, Tenn. The average high was 74.3 degrees while the average low was 51.5. WASHINGTON — Freak chance was mostly to blame for the record warm March weather that gripped two-thirds of the country, with man-made global warming providing only a tiny assist, a federal analysis shows. For much of March, record temperatures hit as high as 35 degrees above normal and averaged about 18 degrees warmer than usual. The United States broke or tied at least 7,733 daily high temperature records in March, which is far more than the number of records broken in last summer’s heat wave or in a blistering July 1995 heat wave, according to federal records. “Climate change was certainly a factor, but it was certainly a minor factor,” Meteorologist Martin Hoerling said. He said the bigger issue was wind patterns. Low pressure in the Pacific Northwest and high pressure in New England created a perfect funnel, like the gutter lane in a bowling alley, for warm air in the Gulf of Mexico to head north. That air is about 15 to 20 degrees warmer than the air in the Midwest. Supreme Court OKs routine strip searches The Associated Press WASHINGTON — Jailers may perform invasive strip searches on people arrested even for minor offenses, an ideologically divided Supreme Court ruled Monday, the conservative majority declaring that security trumps privacy in an often dangerous environment. In a 5-4 decision, the court ruled against a New Jersey man who was strip searched in two county jails following his arrest on a warrant for an unpaid fine that he had, in reality, paid. The decision resolved a conflict among lower courts about how to balance security and privacy. Prior to the Sept. 11, 2001, terror attacks, lower courts generally prohibited routine strip searches for minor offenses. In recent years, however, courts have allowed jailers more discretion to maintain security, and the high court ruling ratified those decisions. In this case, Albert Flor- ence’s nightmare began when the sport utility vehicle driven by his pregnant wife was pulled over for speeding. He was a passenger; his 4-yearold son was in the backseat. Justice Anthony Kennedy said the circumstances of the arrest were of little importance. Instead, Kennedy said, Florence’s entry into the general jail population gave guards the authorization to force him to strip naked and expose his mouth, nose, ears and genitals to a visual search in case he was hiding anything. “Courts must defer to the judgment of correctional officials unless the record contains substantial evidence showing their policies are an unnecessary or unjustified response to problems of jail security,” Kennedy said. Also on Monday, the high court ruled unanimously that witnesses who lie to a grand jury are protected from civil lawsuits, giving them the same protection that witnesses get at trials. though the winner in Illinois will be identified.

Tracy Martin and Sybrina Fulton allege in a letter sent to the U.S. Department of Justice that State Attorney Norm Wolfinger met with the Sanford police chief within hours of the teen’s death and that together they overruled a detective’s recommendation that the shooter, George Zimmerman, be charged with manslaughter. The letter claims a lead investigator filed an affidavit stating that he didn’t find Zimmerman’s story credible. The prosecutor, Norm Wolfinger, called the allegations “lies” and said no meeting took place. OAKLAND, Calif. — A 43-year-old former student of a small Christian university in California opened fire at the school, killing at least seven people and setting off an intense, chaotic manhunt that ended with his capture at a nearby shopping center, authorities said.

Three tickets — one each in Kansas, Illinois and Maryland — will split the jackpot, which officials said Monday was higher than previously estimated. It is now at $656 million, after sales from the 44 state lotteries were totaled, up from the previously reported $640 million.

The former soldiers — Syrian Kurds who’ve crossed the mountainous border into Iraq’s Kurdistan region in small groups over the past three months, a group that now totals well more than 400 — also brought Staff Photo by Ashlee Culverhouse • Continued from Page A1 civil service bill that the state employees association told administration officials that with some further “minor adjustments,” they could support the overhaul. He said the changes were “minor.” TSEA Executive Director Bob O’Connell said “what we have is an agreement for a better bill.” Last week, Democratic legislative leaders boycotted their weekly meeting with Haslam and Republican leaders after an agreement they thought had been reached with Haslam aide Mark Cate later was opposed in committee by Haslam’s legal counsel, Herbert Slatery. O’Connell said state employees are the first to admit the current system has problems. But he said Haslam’s insistence that job performance evaluations be the sole factor in determining layoffs was a no go for employees, who now receive preferential treatment for seniority. The compromise keeps performance as the top consideration but also requires officials to take into consideration seniority, disciplinary records and “ability.” Several other changes also were made, including having state employee input on new evaluations. Another provision requires Haslam’s proposed 2.5 percent pay increase for employees to be across the board, and employees with disciplinary marks get the raise, as well. The legislation still does away with “bump and retreat” requirements that mandate the state allow employees with the most years of service to “bump” employees with less seniority out of their positions during layoffs. Contact staff writer Andy With regard to the budget, Haslam said he has added an extra $3.3 million to increase the sales tax cut, which originally was slated to drop from 5.5 percent to 5.3 percent. It will now fall to 5.25 percent beginning July 1. Haslam said he plans to reduce the tax to 5 percent in the next budget. He acknowledged the increase in local jail payments, the first in a decade, is intended to soften local government concerns about a provision in his anti-crime package. The provision requires domestic-violence offenders to serve a year in jail on third and subsequent convictions. The provision has concerned local governments, which would see their costs increase about $8.4 million statewide. Haslam’s amendment is a nod to some of the recent growth in state revenue collections, which has led to pressure from Democrats, some majority Republicans and social-service advocates to restore a number of proposed cuts. Tennessee tax collections during the first seven months of the year have outpaced original estimates by $237 million in the state’s general fund, which pays for most government functions. All but about $30 million of that already was accounted for in Haslam’s original budget, unveiled in February, administration officials said last month. Haslam’s original budget restored more than $100 million of $160 million in cuts to “core services” identified by former Gov. Phil Bredesen, who provided two years worth of one-time funding.

Your Voice make choices, the iPad and iPhone have helped Rowan develop her vocabulary from scratch. Murray finds apps that have audio and visual cues to be especially helpful. A voice says “apple,” and Rowan is rewarded when she touches a photo of an apple. “We were afraid that she was just mindlessly repeating what the app said. But you’d hand her an apple and she would say, ‘Apple.’ And that’s huge,” Murray said. Rowan even learned the name of her brother, Connor, by substituting his picture and a recording of his name into the program. Unwilling to put her mom’s phone down, she even began learning math on one of the phone’s apps. “I was like, ‘You can’t talk yet and you’re doing subtraction,’” she said. “That’s amazing.” Contact staff writer Kevin Hardy at khardy@timesfree press.com or 423-757-6249. $ 150 Payments Accepted Local Atty.

Classrooms at the May Center have been using iPads since they first were put on the market. “Children with autism respond really well to consistency. And computerbased devices give us the ultimate kind of consistency,” said Kay, a board-certified behavior analyst and licensed psychologist. The center is one of four schools for special-needs populations run by the May Institute, a nonprofit organization that provides educational, rehabilitative and behavioral health care services to individuals with autism. Kay says iPads are starting to replace communication devices produced especially for autistic individuals. The iPads are cheaper, just as easy to use and much more accessible than the communication machines, which can cost as much as $14,000, she said. “This has opened up the world to kids,” Kay said. “They can touch the screen and get a response.” Rowan’s mother sees that every day.

That same idea is now being replicated on iPads. “It’s taking some systems that have already been in place and now advancing them and making them even more accessible for our children with autism,” said Blythe Corbett, an assistant professor in the department of psychiatry at Vanderbilt University. Anecdotal evidence across the country suggests autistic students are making gains with iPads, though Corbett said the academic research still is emerging. She’s found various types of technology useful for communicating with students in her lab, though she noted it’s just one piece of the puzzle. “We don’t want it to replace the social aspect of learning,” she said. “But I believe by helping them build this bridge with technology, we can help them become better learners.” 1-800-DIVORCE 34245355 Speech therapist Kara Knowles helps Marlon Parks, 2, play with an iPad at the Siskin Early Learning Center in Chattanooga.

Even before ter for Child Development iPads, many teachers with in West Springfield, Mass., Haslam tales of colleagues being shot for not firing on civilians. One former noncommissioned special-forces officer even said he suspected that other government troops had orchestrated an ambush his unit endured, in an effort to motivate the unit to kill civilians. Members of a special United Nations commission of inquiry said they’d heard many reports of soldiers being shot for not shooting civilians, but that they hadn’t been able to confirm them. The U.N. investigators said they hadn’t heard reports of government-staged ambushes against its own forces. 34347869 It’s a relatively simple exchange. But teachers say being able to express choices is what makes the iPads so special. Before using the iPads, it was hard for teachers to know what activities Rowan wanted to do, leading her to fuss or scream. “These are the situations when the iPads make the difference — when we can’t guess what it is they’re wanting,” said Kelly DeJong, a classroom coach at the institute’s East Brainerd Early Learning Center. The communication on iPads goes both ways. When it’s time to move, a teacher shows Rowan pictures of the outdoor playground equipment. She instantly knows a transition is coming up and what her next activity will be. “For children with autism, it’s hard for them to know what’s coming up next,” said Maggie Rudd, one of Rowan’s teachers. With its many educational apps, Rudd said she uses the iPad as an activity in and of itself, in addition to its uses as a communication device. The kids can’t get enough. They huddle around the device and climb into Rudd’s lap, looking for their turn with the iPad. Using the device in such a way helps encourage kids to interact with each other, which is sometimes a challenge for children with autism. “It really forces the issue of socialization,” said Betsy Peters, a curriculum and instruction coordinator at Siskin. “It gets them all in the same area, which is sometimes hard to do.” Researchers note that, while the iPad technology is new, the strategies being used are time-tested. ... .

Hannah Bunch, who works at Academy Sports in a shopping center about a mile south of the proposed development site, said traffic’s not too bad when she travels up Highway 153 to work each day, so long as she’s not scheduled to work near morning or evening rush hours. “If we get off at 5 [p.m.], it doubles the time it takes,” she said. Duane Horton, president of Scenic Land Co., which is overseeing the development, has not returned multiple phone calls after a March 12 community meeting about the project. He did not return calls on Monday, asking for comment on the report. At the March meeting, Horton said the project turns property with several different owners into one cohesive development with only one major entrance. If the project is denied, he said, the space probably will be developed piecemeal, making traffic problems even worse. But for nearby landowners, potential problems go well beyond traffic. Gregory Vickrey, executive director of the North Chickamauga Creek Conservancy, expects stormwater, which already causes flooding, pollution and erosion along the creek, will increase dramatically if the project is built.

Emergency vehicles such as ambulances can’t use the trails to respond to accidents, and riders aren’t required to wear helmets, Collins said. Price wasn’t wearing a helmet when she was killed Sunday, officials said. Conasauga District Ranger Michele Jones in Chatsworth, Ga., said the national forest doesn’t require helmets because state law doesn’t. “Helmets are recommended but not required,” she said. “We follow the state of Georgia rules out there.” Riders are required to stay on the designated trails, but there isn’t an age limit for a passenger rider, she said. WHAT’S NEXT The Chattanooga-Hamilton County Regional Planning Agency will meet Monday to decide whether to approve or deny a rezoning required for the 190-acre residential and commercial development in Hixson. The rezoning recommendation will then go to the Chattanooga City Council, which will make the final decision. “This is an area impacted any time there is a significant rain event,” he said. “We already know it can’t handle it now.” In the March meeting, Horton pledged to exceed stormwater retention requirements and promised there would be no flooding downstream from the development. His preliminary plans include three waterretention ponds on the site. But Vickrey was doubtful Horton could find a place for the millions of gallons of stormwater that would run off the site if it is paved over. “If he can, he’s a better engineer than God,” Vickrey said. Flooding left Boy Scout Road, which runs along the northern edge of the property, impassible during storms earlier this year. Drainage into North Chickamauga Creek is quickly eroding the public and private land the creek runs through, a problem that cost millions in taxpayer dollars in SoddyDaisy, just north of the Hixson development site. Erosion has caused problems for decades in that area, washing away yards, porches, home foundations and the U.S. 27 bridge. The federal government paid $1.77 million in 2005 for just one of many projects aimed at fighting erosion along the Willow Creek subdivision near Dayton Pike. “It could be three times in a year, it could be once in five years, but it’s going to happen,” said Hardie Stulce, city manager in Soddy-Daisy. “When that creek starts ripping and rolling, the water goes somewhere. There have been instances in the last 10 years where U.S. Highway 27 was underwater.” Stulce wasn’t familiar with the details of the proposed Hixson project but said he wouldn’t be surprised if it caused water problems similar to what his town has seen. “I can tell you what it does up here on this end, and the water that comes through here is definitely going to come through there,” he said. “I think the people who are concerned have a reason to be concerned.” There are plenty area residents who are concerned. Vickrey has gotten more than 670 signatures on a petition against the project. He said he plans to fight the development till the end to keep the creek healthy and area residents safe from what has happened in Soddy-Daisy. “I would label it inevitable that some property owners are going to be affected that dramatically,” Vickrey said. “It’s a no-brainer to describe it as a long-term cost for the community.” Contact staff writer Carey O’Neil at [email protected] or 423-757-6525.

A study in Norway estimates that between 15 and 25 percent of breast cancers found by mammograms wouldn’t have caused any problems during a woman’s lifetime, but these tumors were being treated anyway. Once detected, early tumors are surgically removed and sometimes treated with radiation or chemotherapy because there’s no certain way to figure out which ones may be dangerous and which are harmless. “When you look for cancer early and you look really hard, you find forms that are ultimately never going to bother the patient,” said Dr. H.

On Monday, family members of officers involved in “ ” the robbery call stepped forward to place sprays of flowers on a grassy patch on the side of Old Birds Mill Road in remembrance of Chapin. The ceremony took place at 10:24 a.m., the time the call went out a year ago. “It definitely solidifies the department when we have events like this,” said Officer Mark Bender, one of five officers who responded to the robbery call. “You have 400 personalities in our department and this basically brings them to the same point.” Bender’s wife, Dianna, and his 22-month old daughter, See MARCH, Page B5 Health rankings criteria widened ■ Area counties have mixed grades in the report, but the overall outlook for Tennessee and Georgia is not very good.

Chuck Fleischmann. The 25-year-old Republican son of former U.S. Rep. Zach Wamp announced his three-month haul two weeks before the government’s deadline for submitting a campaign finance disclosure in the 3rd Con- gressional District race. But an adviser for Fleischmann, the elder Wamp’s successor and a firstterm Republican, said the congressman raised about $200,000 between Jan. 1 and March 31 and counted at least $750,000 after first-quarter expenses. Wamp’s after-expenses total was $436,080, his aides said. Wamp likely gained little, if any, ground since the previous fundraising quarter, which ended Dec. 31. Back then, Wamp finished $332,000 behind Fleischmann after expenses. Graveside gathering honors man’s spirit Wreck victim’s kin say they want to bring attention to drunken driving By Todd South Staff Writer A group of family and friends clustered around a grave in Hamilton Memorial Gardens on Monday evening for a birthday celebration marked with smiles and tears. Each clutched at least one ribbon holding a balloon, some with messages written on their pink or yellow or blue or green shells — “Happy Birthday Kevin” or “I love you so much big bro!” Monday would have been Kevin Yates’ 26th birthday. But 10 months ago, on July 31, 2010, an alleged drunken driver slammed head-on into his Chrysler minivan and he died a few days later. The driver, Latisha Stephens, faces a possible sentencing hearing today in Hamilton County Criminal Court. But Monday night wasn’t about the wreck, it was about keeping memories alive. “It was a tragedy for Kevin, for anyone to die in that way, we just don’t want him to be forgotten,” said Mark Yates, Kevin’s father. “It obviously doesn’t just affect a mom and dad, just look around. “By keeping him alive, it keeps that one little spark in someone who maybe says I shouldn’t drink this or maybe I shouldn’t get behind the wheel,” Mark Yates said. Yates’ mother, Tiki Finlayson, shared some joy through the tears as she read a letter from a man who received Kevin’s heart due to his organ donation. Friends shared memories of Yates’ love of Jackie Chan movies, Batman and video games. The more than 40 people huddled close and released nearly 100 balloons that drifted up and eastward on the breeze.

Pot crackdown Rossville house raided, 200 marijuana plants seized By Joy Lukachick Staff Report Three men were arrested on Monday, accused of turning a Rossville house into a quarter-million dollar marijuana operation. Lookout Mountain Drug Task Force agents raided the home off Longview Drive and found more than 200 plants of all sizes, from seedling to processed marijuana ready for sale, officials said. “Its been one of the biggest indoor operations in this decade [in the county],” said Drug Task Force Interim Commander Patrick Doyle. As part of the investigation, Benjamin Valdes, 30; Juan Valladares, 30; and Marijuana buds sit on a coffee table in the home in Rossville that was raided on Monday. Felix Valdes Jr., 32, were arrested, said Walker County Sheriff Steve Wilson. All three men face charges of possession of marijuana and possession with intent to distribute, Wilson said. Authorities believe the men had been growing marijuana inside the house for about a year, Doyle said. Benjamin Valdes had been investigated months ago, but had left the county and gone to Florida, Doyle said. When agents learned he was back in Walker County, they began another investigation, he said. When authorities tried to serve an arrest warrant on Benjamin Valdes on Monday, he tried to run, but he was caught and arrested along with Valladares and Felix Valdes, Doyle said. The investigation is ongoing. Contact staff writer Joy Lukachick at jlukachick@ timesfreepress.com or 423757-6659. Cleveland Middle sports to get lights Colorful road race ATLANTA angers residents Some Atlanta residents are upset after a unique road race left some streets and cars discolored. Streets and sidewalks were colored in bright shades of pink, yellow, purple and green following “The Color Run,” a 5-kilometer race around Piedmont Park. The race involved runners in all white being dusted with brightly colored concoctions of cornstarch and food coloring. Will James said his brand new, all-white sport utility vehicle was stained from bumper to bumper with purple spots. Race organizers said they would pay for James to get his new paint buffed out. By Randall Higgins Staff Writer CLEVELAND, Tenn. — The athletic fields at Cleveland Middle School will be getting lights. The middle school opened in 2000 with football, track and baseball fields unlighted as a cost-saving measure. It has been a 12-year campaign by the school’s sports fans and coaches to get those lights. Monday, the Cleveland Board of Education approved a deal that will finance the lights with the same company used by local government, MUSCO Finance LLC of Oskaloose, Iowa. Beginning in 2013, the $400,000 project will be paid for at more than $146,000 a year for three years.

CLEVELAND, Tenn. — Bradley County commissioners have agreed to offer financial incentives to help Procter & Gamble Duracell make a $36 million reinvestment within the community that will create 60 new jobs. On Monday night, Bradley County commissioners voted 13-0 to authorize a tax abatement request made by P&G Duracell to assist the company with its expansion plans at its Cleveland facilities. Although the issue did not generate any discussion among commissioners during the meeting, Doug Berry, vice president of economic development for the Cleveland/Bradley Chamber of Commerce, p ra i s e d t h e co m pa ny ’s plans and their expected impact on the community afterward. L a s t we e k , o ff i c i a l s announced that the company’s Cleveland production facility would be P&G Duracell’s only plant that manufactures its C and D batteries. The planned expansion of Cleveland operations are intended to help the company fulfill sales of the batteries worldwide. The Cleveland plant is one of only three P&G Duracell production facilities in the United States. The battery plant has maintained a relationship with the community for more than 50 years, and P&G Duracell’s latest reinvestment will go toward building that relationship for another 50 years, said Berry. “It’s usually at 40 or 50 years where a company decides whether it is going to stay in a town any longer,” said Berry. The company is expected to begin seeking employees to fill the new positions within the next 45 to 60 days, said Berry. The county and city will receive $564,000 in property tax revenues over the next seven years because of the P&G Duracell expansion, according to economic development calculations. Bradley County will receive $308,000 of the total and Cleveland will receive $256,000. Local and state sales tax revenues also would benefit from the new jobs, and it is expected that new retail jobs would be created in the area as an indirect benefit, said Berry.

Staff Photo by Randall Higgins Students walk past an entrance to Arnold Memorial Elementary School in Cleveland, Tenn., Monday on their annual walk to battle cystic fibrosis. CLEVELAND, Tenn. — The children at Arnold Memorial Elementary School have made defeating cystic fibrosis one of their goals. “Some boys and girls have trouble just being able to breathe,” said fifth-grader Norance Berry. So Monday, the students lined up to walk around the school block and deliver their “change for a change,” money they’d raised to help find a cure. Before spring break last week, they had raised about $500 in pennies, nickels, dimes and quarters. Last weekend, some Arnold teachers and students also took part in the annual 65 Roses Run to raise money for a cystic fibrosis cure. “It makes you feel like you are making a difference for people you don’t even know,” said Mikayla Horton. Principal Kellye Bender said a former Arnold student had cystic fibrosis and others in the Cleveland School system also have suffered from the genetic disorder. “So Arnold has made this a special project,” Bender said. Students are so well versed in cystic fibrosis, “they know about the medicines being developed, so they can see the benefits,” she said. To battle the disease, Arnold is a partner with Lee University in the Cleveland-Bradley County Chamber of Commerce’s Business and Education Serving Together program. The university makes the annual 65 Roses Run. “But not all our children can get to Lee on a Saturday,” Bender said, so the school had its own event. Lee announced that its 10-year 65 Roses, a 5k run, has passed the half-million dollar mark in contributions for a cystic fibrosis cure. There were 825 registered runners on Saturday.

Council Chairwoman Pam Ladd said the whole issue is “out of their jurisdiction.” Council Manny Rico said the matter is “out of their hands.” A group of businessmen, community leaders and vendors is expected to ask the City Council tonight to do something about Mayor Ron Littlefield’s decision to move the Strut from M.L. King Boulevard to the riverfront. The group “will be folks who have a vested interest in the Bessie Smith Strut and an interest in the MLK neighborhood,” said the Rev. Jeffrey Wilson, pastor of New United Missionary Baptist Church and a Hamilton County Board of Education member. “I think there will be a good number.” Littlefield, citing safety concerns about the Strut, announced l a s t we e k that he asked R ive r b e n d festival organizers to put the event on at the riverfront. C i t y Pam A t t o r n e y Ladd Mike McMahan said last week the decision is an administrative one that falls under the powers of the mayor. Councilman Peter Mur- phy said the only power the council has is the power over the budget. “ T h e council can decide to d e f u n d Andraé something,” McGary he said. “We don’t like what you’re doing so we’re going to take the money away. I don’t know what we can defund to change this decision.” Councilwoman Deborah Scott said she appreciates both sides of the issue: a concern over public safety and concern over business owners along M.L. King Boulevard worrying about losing money if the Strut moves. Co u n c i l m a n A n d ra é McGary, who represents the district where the Strut has been held for 31 years, said he is getting a lot of feedback from the community. “What I am getting is, ‘Can the council reverse this decision?’” he said. “That’s my question.” He said there could be some options but declined to discuss them Monday. Richard Beeland, spokesman for the mayor, said Littlefield would not be at the meeting and instead would be in Nashville, speaking with Tennessee legislators about gang laws.

Murder case dismissal sought; lawyers say evidence missing Haslam, Ramsey wary of guns bill The Associated Press March • Continued from Page B1 door to door to find residents who support them in their quest to save public housing. The petition demands that the city government work to restore lost public housing and ensure that no more public housing units be destroyed. The petition also demands that all new housing developments in Chattanooga include units for lowincome people. The residents will present the list to the council tonight. Westside residents said it doesn’t help that, already feeling left out of conversations about the Westside being a potential site for the Purpose Built community, they also weren’t included in discussions about moving the Bessie Smith Strut from M.L. King Boulevard to the By Todd South Staff Writer The Associated Press A Tennessee hunting license like this one would give people the right to store a gun in their vehicles while at work under a bill proposed in Nashville. Resources Agency doesn’t keep track of how many of those are younger than 21. Ramsey said the proposal as currently written goes too far. “Expanding it to hunting licenses — even though I can see why they did that — but that’s stuff that just doesn’t need to be done,” said Ramsey, R-Blountville. The House version of the bill is up for a committee vote on Wednesday. A full Senate vote has yet to be scheduled. riverfront. “It’s like slapping a tiger with a toothache,” said Gloria Griffith, a Westside resident. Griffith said she’ll be participating in tonight’s march, which she said is not only to show support for the preservation of public housing, but also to express anger about the relocation of the Strut. When it comes to the Purpose Built community, Westside residents are concerned that if the amount of public housing is reduced further — as it was to make room for a Purpose Built community in Atlanta’s East Lake Villages, low-income people may not have a place to live. More than 1,500 people are on the waiting list for public housing in Chattanooga while another 5,000 wait for Section 8 housing. If any public housing is destroyed to make way for the Purpose Built community, Chattanooga Housing Authority officials have said residents will be relocated to other public housing units or given a housing voucher. But Westside residents are skeptical. Less than one-quarter of the people from the defunct Spencer J.

Attorneys for four codefendants asked a Criminal Court judge to dismiss murder charges against their clients Monday, saying a police lieutenant’s order not to collect a cellphone would result in an unfair trial. During a two-hour hearing before Judge Don Poole, attorneys Jonathan Turner, Jay Perry, Todd Hastey and Garth Best argued that because the phone was not collected during a Chattanooga police investigation into the June 29, 2010, death of Bernard Hughes, 46, their clients won’t know if there was evidence that could have ruled them out as suspects in the home invasion shooting. But prosecutors Neal Pinkston and Cameron Williams argued that nothing presented by the defense attorneys showed there was anything on the phone that gave police a reason to hold it. On July 13, 2010, Chattanooga police investigator Michael Wenger got a call that officers had found a phone, believed to be Harold Butler’s, at the home of Antonio Watkins. When Wenger arrived, then-Lt. Edwin McPherson told him that U.S. marshals might want the phone and for him not to take it into evidence, Wenger testified Monday. After Wenger checked with the federal agents and they told him they didn’t need the phone, McPherson called Wenger’s lieutenant supervisor, who then called Wenger’s sergeant supervisor to tell Wenger not to collect the phone. McPherson then told Wenger on the scene that he could inspect the phone and ask Watkins questions, but he couldn’t take it, Wenger testified. Watkins told Wenger he’d bought the phone from Butler for two bags of marijuana. McPherson, now a captain, testified Monday he didn’t remember telling Wenger not to take the phone into evidence. Turner also asked McPherson what he did with information from his niece, an eyewitness to the Hughes shooting. The captain said he passed along the information from his niece and other confidential sources to homicide investigators and did not interview her, to avoid a conflict of interest. Hastey’s client, John Simpson, 31, is the first scheduled for trial on first-degree murder charges on April 24. Best’s client, Unjolee Moore, A Fresh Take On News 25, is next on June 26. Perry’s client, Butler, 31, is scheduled for July 17. A trial date for Turner’s client, Steven Ballou, 32, has not been set. All four co-defendants are in jail custody awaiting trial.

Chapin responded to provide backup, and Officer Jonathan Brock, who was off duty and working a private security job at the time, came toward the end. Chapin’s family did not attend the informal service. A lunch was planned for Monday with other officers as well as members of his family. Only minutes after Chapin’s death, Jesse Mathews, 26, was arrested in connection with the shooting. He faces charges including firstdegree murder, attempted murder and robbery. His case is set to go trial in January 2013. Joining city police officers and several Hamilton County Sheriff’s Office deputies at the service were cadets in the police training academy. “They need to see this. It’s definitely a reality. That’s why they bring them out here,” Bender said shortly after the academy class left. Some officers planned to visit Chapin’s grave at Hamilton Memorial Gardens, where a replica of his badge adorns the grave marker. All officers involved in the shooting were given the anniversary date off. At Monday’s informal ceremony, some of the officers involved shed tears and hugged each other. Among the officers who responded, three of the five were fathers and two went home to their children that day. “I just wanted to see my daughter,” said Bender, who said he got home as quickly as he could to spend time with his daughter, an infant at the time. Since the shooting, the Benders always say goodbye every day because they know anything can happen when Bender, a 13-year veteran of the department, goes off to work. “I always kiss the significant other goodbye and tell him to have a good day,” Dianna Bender said. “You know.

The least healthy was Grundy County, which had climbed out of the bottom spot last year, only to flop back this year. In Georgia, Fayette County has the healthiest residents and Talbot County is the least healthy, even though both counties are in west-central Georgia and separated by only two counties. The County Health Rankings rank the overall health of nearly every county in all 50 states, using a standard way to measure how healthy people are and how long they live. The results are divided into health outcomes — based on mortality and morbidity — and health factors that include tobacco use, obesity levels, access to health care and healthy food, education, employment, safety and air quality, according to the foundation. In Southeast Tennessee, Bradley County ranked highest for overall health, coming in 18th out of 95 counties in the state, while Hamilton to a nonprofit formed to educate against drunken driving and provide grief counseling and support for surviving relatives of drunken driving victims. The organization — 1N3 — refers to the statistic that one in three people is affected by drunken driving. “We wanted to target the people that do drink and drive, the kids, the ones who haven’t chosen that lifestyle yet,” Finlayson said.

FROM THE RANKINGS ■ Hamilton County has more than twice as many primary care physicians based on population as Bradley County. ■ In Grundy County, 43 percent of children live in poverty. ■ In Sequatchie County, 30 percent of residents are in poor or fair health. ■ Hamilton County ranked fourth in the state for health behaviors, including below-state averages for smoking, obesity and physical inactivity. ■ In Georgia, Catoosa County ranked ninth in the state for social and economic factors, with an 80 percent high school graduation rate and a low violent crime rate. ■ Walker County in Georgia ranked 133rd in the state for health behaviors, with higher-than-state averages for physical inactivity and teen birth rates.

In Georgia, Catoosa and Whitfield counties were in the top 25 percent in overall health, while Walker and Murray were in the bottom third. Odegaard said the additional data this year is an effort to provide a broader look at all the health factors contributing to a community’s health. Access to fast-food outlets in a community has been linked to an increase in obesity and diabetes, the rankings note. The level of physical activity and access to healthy foods also contribute to overall health, Odegaard said. The county health rankings are useful because they look at such a wide range of factors that are not always directly linked to health outcomes but still play a huge role, said Logan Boss, the spokesman for the 10-county Northwest Georgia Health District. “It gives good information, but it is only a snapshot in time and not a useful tool to measure progress.

OPINION B6 • Tuesday, April 3, 2012 • • • Established 1869 Adolph S. Ochs, Publisher 1878-1935 HARRY AUSTIN Editorial Page Editor WES HASDEN Associate Editor EDITORIALS Higher gas prices anyway A mid the angst of rising gasoline prices, at least two things seem clear. One is that Senate Republicans are keeping billions in annual taxpayer subsidies flowing to Big Oil, never mind the record profits it currently is reaping off rising fuel prices. (The three biggest oil companies, for example, took home $80 billion in profits last year). The Senate proved its allegiance to the oil moguls with another filibuster-proof vote last week to end the $2.4 billion in subsidies to the top five oil companies, mainly because their campaign coffers depend heavily on oil lobbyists’ money. The second apparent feature of the energy-price dynamic is that rising oil and gas production in the United States, which has spurted to record levels under the Obama administration’s tenure, has hit such a high level that energy industry analysts now see legitimate longterm prospects of energy independence from imported fossil fuels — the grail of the “drill baby drill” crowd. Tea party types, of course, haven’t figured out how to reconcile the broader trends, or more specifically, why rising U.S. energy production isn’t bringing down the cost of oil and gasoline. Their intellectual dilemma, of course, springs from the fact that they haven’t accepted the financial reality that oil is an easily traded international commodity, which means its price is set on the world’s commodities markets. So no matter where the oil is produced — from domestic wells, or in Africa or the Middle East — customers will pay the international per barrel prices. Raising domestic production won’t change that equation. American consumers are not helping the right-wing’s myopia about how to bring down the price at the pump. They have simply begun coping with the market dynamic of rising gasoline prices by logically following market signals — and consuming less gasoline per mile or per day. As the economy has recovered, they’ve been trading in their gas guzzlers and buying more fuel efficient vehicles, including hybrids and electric options. Others are rediscovering timeless virtues — using public transportation more, and riding bicycles or walking more. With a growing fracking industry and a dawning surfeit of natural gas from shale fields supplementing the oil industry’s new drilling, consumers also will begin seeing the rise of a natural gas-or-propane infrastructure for broader vehicle use. That will further relieve demand-side pressure for oil, gasoline and diesel products. To a point, these converging trends are all good — so long as environmentally sound and fair-minded regulation over fracking protects vital water supplies from toxic fracking chemicals and hazardous methane contamination of water resources. The missing focus in this emerging scenario is an emphasis on conservation, alternative vehicles and fair treatment to taxpayers who unreasonably are forced to subsidize Big Oil’s mega profits. With barely 5 percent of the world’s population and 2 percent of the world’s known oil reserves, the United States cannot afford to use more than 20 percent of the world’s oil. It will take a far more balanced approach to energy use to achieve a semblance of sustainable, affordable energy use. A blow to the Constitution In another 5-4 decision that followed the increasingly familiar ideological divide, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled Monday that jail guards may stripsearch individuals arrested for any offense, including minor ones such as a traffic violation. The ruling needlessly weakens the Fourth Amendment’s safeguard against unreasonable searches. Justice Anthony Kennedy said in the majority opinion that if an individual is to be incarcerated with the general jail population, “courts must defer to the judgment of correctional officials unless the record contains substantial evidence showing their policies are an unnecessary or unjustified response to problems of jail security.” Kennedy wrote that it would be “unworkable” to make an exception for people arrested minor offenses. The court’s highly politicized right wing — Chief Justice John G. Roberts and Justices Antonin Scalia, Clarence Thomas and Samuel A. Alito Jr. — concurred with Kennedy that strip searches were reasonable. The court’s liberal minority took a far more balanced view. Justice Steven G. Breyer, writing for himself and Justices Ruth Bader Ginsburg, Sonia Sotomayor and Elena Kagan, said jailers should have reasonable grounds before conducting an invasive strip search, which generally requires an individual to remove his or her clothes, to be subjected to a body cavity search and to allow their genitals to be inspected. Breyer correctly wrote that such searches were “a serious affront to human dignity and individual privacy” and should be used only when there was reason to expect that a person was hiding something. The minority’s opinion certainly matches the Fourth Amendment’s view of unreasonable searches more closely than the majority’s blanket approval of strip searches. The case before the court was particularly egregious. The plaintiff was arrested in New Jersey because a search of records during a traffic stop incorrectly indicated he had not paid a fine. The plaintiff told the arresting officer the fine had been paid, but he was nevertheless arrested, subjected to strip searches at two jails and incarcerated for six days before he was allowed to prove the fine had been paid. He sued the county where he had been arrested for violating his privacy. Given the circumstances, his claim certainly had merit. Earlier rulings regarding those charged with minor offenses but who had no compelling reason to be strip searched were mixed. Some courts approved them. Others said they were lawful only if there was reasonable suspicion that the person had contraband or weapons. Monday’s decision removes the sensible requirement cited by the latter. The ruling recklessly redefines the legal meaning of “reasonable.” It also continues, even accelerates, the conservative majority’s determination to broaden police powers while eroding constitutional protections and civil rights. The dangerous and partisan politicization of the U.S. Supreme Court, it is apparent, continues unabated. COMMENTARY A new world of health care WASHINGTON — Listening to lawyers talk nonstop last week about health care gave me a headache, so I decided to consult a doctor. He offered a real-world diagnosis of what’s happening in health care — and a reminder of David how much Ignatius it’s changing, regardless of what the Supreme Court decides about Obamacare. My medical guru is Dr. Delos “Toby” Cosgrove, chief executive of Cleveland Clinic, a $6 billion network that’s one of the biggest and best in the country. Cosgrove explained how the health system is being transformed by basic economic pressures that predated the new law and will continue, regardless. Talking with Cosgrove, you get the sense that the political (and now, legal) version of the health care debate is in many ways a distraction from what matters most, which is how care is delivered. That’s changing, inexorably, because of underlying cost pressures. The Supremes could throw Obamacare out the window, and we’d still have a revolution in health care delivery that promises better treatment for Americans, at lower cost. The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act will make this revamped system accessible to more Americans, so I’m for it on equity grounds. But even if the mandate to buy insurance disappears, health care will keep moving into the new world of care. ■ The health care debate is in many ways a distraction from what matters most, which is how care is delivered. We should understand that the current debate is over financing and access — not health care delivery. Drawing on Cosgrove’s analysis, here’s a summary of the changes already in play: ■ Hospitals are consolidating. Today, says Cosgrove, 60 percent of hospitals are part of consolidated systems. These systems will keep merging as they drive toward greater efficiency. It’s the same process that happens in every industry. It will make care a little more impersonal — but also cheaper and better. This rationalization will close small and inefficient community hospitals — one U.S. official estimates that up to 1,000 hospitals should be closed. As a result, we’ll have fewer hospital beds and more outpatient and home care. What’s forcing consolidation is that reimbursements from Medicare are going to be reduced, requiring hospitals to cut costs. ■ Doctors are becoming salaried, joining the trend pushed by the Cleveland Clinic and other providers. Today, about 60 percent of doctors nationwide are on salary, up about 10 percent from several years ago. Cosgrove predicts that this will rise to at least 70 percent over the next decade. Salaried doctors won’t have the same economic incentives to provide expensive treatments that may not make sense for patients. They’ll be paid well (an internist at Cleveland Clinic starts at about $120,000) but not stratospheric salaries. Meanwhile, a shortage of doctors and nurses means that less senior (and less expensive) practitioners are providing more care. A physician’s assistant, increasingly, will treat minor ailments; in operating rooms, says Cosgrove, 40 percent of those present are technicians, rather than doctors and nurses. ■ Health records are finally going electronic, which should allow more savings. It’s an expensive transition, but it will pay huge dividends, in terms of cheaper and better care. ■ The federal government is gathering better data on health outcomes, which will encourage national standards. Hospitals already report 65 metrics for care to the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services. By 2014, they will be reporting 85 items that will measure everything from patient satisfaction to infection and mortality rates. Medicare payments to doctors and hospitals will partly reflect performance. Docs may complain about intrusion, but this change should mean better care for millions of baby boomers entering Medicare. The health care overhaul is happening whatever the Supreme Court decides. The main consequence of the Obamacare case will be whether the justices toss out the existing rule book, forcing everyone to start over again. The justices can slow things down in this way, and they can make the system more equitable or less, but they can’t stop the revolution. Washington Post Writers Group Why nations fail I’m reading a fascinating new book called “Why Nations Fail.” The more you read it, the more you appreciate what a fool’s errand we’re on in Afghanistan and how much we need to totally revamp our whole foreign aid s t r a t e g y. But most intriguing are the warning Thomas flares the Friedman authors put up about both America and China. Co-written by the MIT economist Daron Acemoglu and the Harvard political scientist James A. Robinson, “Why Nations Fail” argues that the key differentiator between countries is “institutions.” Nations thrive when they develop “inclusive” political and economic institutions, and they fail when those institutions become “extractive” and concentrate power and opportunity in the hands of only a few. “Inclusive economic institutions that enforce property rights, create a level playing field, and encourage investments in new technologies and skills are more conducive to economic growth than extractive economic institutions that are structured to extract resources from the many by the few,” they write. “Inclusive economic institutions, are in turn supported by, and support, inclusive political institutions,” which “distribute political power widely in a pluralistic manner and are able to achieve some amount of political centralization so as to establish law ■ Nations fail when their political institutions become “extractive” and concentrate power and opportunity in the hands of only a few. and order, the foundations of secure property rights, and an inclusive market economy.” Conversely, extractive political institutions that concentrate power in the hands of a few reinforce extractive economic institutions to hold power. Acemoglu explained in an interview that their core point is that countries thrive when they build political and economic institutions that “unleash,” empower and protect the full potential of each citizen to innovate, invest and develop. Compare how well Eastern Europe has done since the fall of communism with post-Soviet states like Georgia or Uzbekistan, or Israel versus the Arab states, or Kurdistan versus the rest of Iraq. It’s all in the institutions. The lesson of history, the authors argue, is you can’t get economics right if you don’t get politics right, which is why they don’t buy the notion China has found the magic formula for combining political control and economic growth. “Our analysis,” says Acemoglu, “is that China is experiencing growth under extractive institutions — under the authoritarian grip of the Communist Party, which has been able to monopolize power and mobilize resources at a scale that has allowed for a burst of economic growth starting from a very low base,” but it’s not sustainable because it doesn’t foster the degree of “creative destruction” that is so vital for innovation and higher incomes. The post-9/11 view that what ailed the Arab world and Afghanistan was a lack of democracy was not wrong, said Acemoglu. What was wrong was thinking we could easily export it. Democratic change has to emerge from grass-roots movements, “but that does not mean there is nothing we can do,” he adds. For instance, we should be transitioning away from military aid to regimes like Egypt and focusing instead on enabling more sectors of that society to have a say in politics. Right now, I’d argue, our foreign aid to Egypt, Pakistan and Afghanistan is really a ransom we pay their elites not to engage in bad behavior. We need to turn it into bait. We can only be a force multiplier. Where you have grassroots movements that want to build inclusive institutions, we can enhance them. But we can’t create or substitute for them. Worse, in Afghanistan and many Arab states, our policies have often discouraged grass roots from emerging by our siding with convenient strongmen. So there’s nothing to multiply. If you multiply zero by 100, you still get zero. And America? Acemoglu worries that our huge growth in economic inequality is undermining the inclusiveness of America’s institutions, too. “The real problem is that economic inequality, when it becomes this large, translates into political inequality.” When one person can write a check to finance your whole campaign, how inclusive will you be as an elected official to listen to competing voices? New York Times News Service ... . timesfreepress.com OPINION • • Tuesday, April 3, 2011 • B7 Tax whom — and how much? Established 1936, Roy McDonald, Founder & Publisher, 1936-1990 Frank McDonald, President and Chairman, 1969-2000 LEE ANDERSON Associate Publisher & Editor EDITORIALS Are you happy about taxes? T his headline question seems a little silly to most of us, doesn’t it? Who is ever “happy” about any taxes — unless they are going down, which is very rare. Do you know what President Barack Obama plans to do about our taxes — and very soon? We are asking now because this year — 2012 — our tax rates are headed for a change. Six tax brackets have been in effect for Americans since 2003. They range from 10 percent to 35 percent. The Tax Relief Act of 2010 temporarily extended those tax rates through the end of 2012. But what’s next? The tax rates for 2013 are set to change — automatically — to the pre-2003 rates unless new legislation is passed by Congress and signed by the president! Do you know what President Obama and a majority of the members of Congress have in mind? Unless new legislation is approved, the current 10 percent tax rate is scheduled to become 15 percent. The 25 percent tax rate will become 28 percent. The 28 percent tax rate will become 31 percent. The 33 percent tax rate will become 36 percent. And the 35 percent tax rate will become 39.6 percent — automatically! Have you seen or heard any indication that Congress and the president will “do something” in time to avoid imposing higher taxes upon us? Obama said in a radio address last Saturday: “We don’t envy success in this country. We aspire to it. But we also believe that anyone who does well for themselves should do their fair share in return, so that more people have the opportunity to get ahead — not just a few.” Did that sound to you like a suggestion that he is planning to do anything to avoid the scheduled “automatic” tax increases? Or did it suggest he plans to let higher taxes automatically take effect? Few of us taxpayers may be aware of the immediate prospect of higher taxes. Most people certainly don’t want higher taxes. But in no case should we let the possibility of higher taxes “slip up on us” and take effect without warning. So shouldn’t we, the taxpayers, immediately and urgently insist that our representatives and senators in Congress speak up clearly — now — and not surprise us with “automatic” higher taxes? Aren’t specific explanations and decisions due — now? Crime doesn’t pay, it costs Southeast Tennessee and North Georgia, like other areas, have been confronted with a reality: There are those who are willing to take their God-given energies and devote them to a life of crime, deviancy and disruption rather than making the decision to devote themselves to hard work, honesty and contributing to their community. Petty crime, gangs, sex trafficking and drug use all are drains on the rights of individuals and the health of every community. Individual property rights and the right of personhood are just two rights that any crime or act of deviance infringes upon. There is no defense for such behavior. A 2010 study by researchers at Iowa State University based on data from 654 convicted killers estimated the cost of a single murder at $17.25 million based on “costs to victims, criminal justice system costs, lost productivity for both the criminal and victim, and estimates on the public’s investment to prevent future violence.” The same study determined the societal costs of incidents of rape ($448,532), armed robbery ($335,733), aggravated assault ($145,379) and theft ($42,288). So, you ask, “How do we stop crime?” In study after study, poverty is identified as a main contributing factor, along with a very hungry and profitable drug market. So, what is the major contributing factor of poverty? Research consistently shows that households with non-traditional structures, i.e. single parents or reconstituted families; those headed by a teenage parent; and those with a large number of children are more likely to be in poverty. Law enforcement has to do the dangerous but much-appreciated job of removing those who make the decision to pursue crime versus a life of productivity. Social services must continue serving as safety nets and provide a path back to productivity, not a guarantee for generational sustenance. Churches, families and friends, we all have to be brutally honest rather than offer excuses for and justify patterns of crime and deviance. The commitment to that which is right and decent in work, entertainment and education is never the easiest, but it must be taught in our homes, places of worship and, yes, our schools. Likewise, the decision to pursue crime and deviancy must be rejected and identified as completely inappropriate. Most call it “tough love.” The reputation and the existence of our community will be determined by our choices and actions. We all make choices, then our choices make us. Student loans, and other debt A government study finds that student-loan debt has reached the frightening figure of $1 trillion! That’s shocking. But is it “good” or “bad”? Does it mean more young people are getting a fine education? Does it mean more are getting deep in debt? The answer to both questions is yes. A college degree can be a path to a good job and a more fulfilling life in many ways. But when young adults leave college with a massive debt load, it limits their ability to do things such as buy a house. And what of students who borrow a good deal of money for college but then do not complete their degrees? They face the worst of both worlds: high student debt but little to show for it. In addition, we Americans carry credit card debt that is nearly as great as the $1 trillion student loan debt figure. And most troubling of all, our national debt is a staggering $15.5 trillion — and growing. Yet Congress and the president seem incapable of even beginning to reduce that debt. How we handle our debt — both individually and nationally — has huge implications for our individual finances and for the future of our economy as a whole. But there are painfully few indications that we are ready to confront the debt problem realistically. So, unfortunately, we will face serious consequences. Do president prospects suit you? We all know, of course, that Democratic President Barack Obama is running for, and expecting to win, a second four-year term in the White House. Do you still wonder how he won his first term? Many Democrats seem to be sure that Mitt Romney eventually will turn out to be the Republicans’ presidential nominee this year. Does Romney excite you as a prospective president? But while the Democratic presidential nominee is “certain,” Republican Rick Santorum is challenging Romney’s ambitions. Does Santorum inspire you as a possible presidential winner? Do you look forward to four more years for Obama — or four years for Romney or for Santorum? It’s getting late! If not Obama, Romney or Santorum, then who? When? Letters to the Editors —— ❖ —— Diet is a key to diabetes help Re: “Encouragement vs. diabetes” (Free Press editorial, March 28): Is there a cure for diabetes Type II, and even help in decreasing the amount of insulin necessary for diabetes Type I (child onset), without expensive, risky surgery? The answer is yes! Along with refined foods (white flour, white rice, cakes, pastries, ref ined pasta, etc.), both animal and vegetable fats are more implicated in diabetes than sugar. Sw i t c h i n g t o wh o l e grains, and a combination of mainly raw (but also cooked) vegetables and fruit has completely cured Type II diabetes in as little as a few weeks, and has helped Type I diabetics reduce their insulin requirements. “The China Study,” for instance, is the largest epidemiological study ever conducted and shows a definite relation between the American diet and diseases such as diabetes, cancer and heart disease. Changing one’s diet is difficult, but if physicians would educate themselves and then their patients, at least giving them the opportunity to choose for themselves, diabetes might become a thing of the past in this country. Milk, for instance, has long been implicated as a causative factor in Type I childhood onset diabetes (even Dr. Spock stopped recommending cow’s milk for infants and children). KATHERINE HAUBRICH Divine creation gives life meaning There are basically two choices concerning the origin of life. One choice states that life began from nonliving material. The second choice states that life was created by the eternal God. A textbook currently used at UTC, Biology, eighth edition, 2008, Thompson Brooks/Cole, p.447, states: “How did life begin? Although biologists generally accept the hypothesis that life developed from nonliving matter, exactly how this process, called chemical evolution, occurred is not certain.” The opening statement from the Holy Bible in Genesis 1:1 is “In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.” Notice that the scientific text classifies evolution as hypothesis. Notice that the Bible states divine creation as fact. Since no human being was present in the beginning of the universe, whatever we believe about the origin of life on planet Earth must be accepted by faith. What if the evolutionary hypothesis is correct, and there is no God? The natural conclusion is that we are all just highly developed animals, and doomed to live as such. That conce p t p rov i d e s n o re a l meaning to your lives. What if the Bible is correct, and there is a God?

Car, truck sales start year at best pace since 2008 By Dave Flessner Staff Writer S ales of new cars and trucks in Hamilton County rose nearly 13 percent over last year during the first quarter, marking the best start for local vehicle sales in five years. Chattanooga dealers sold 1,390 new cars and 1,637 new trucks to Hamilton County residents during the first three months of the year, according to vehicle registration totals released Monday by the Hamilton County Clerk’s Office. Sales of new vehicles were still more than 35 percent below the peak reached before the recession hit in 2007. But dealers said more shoppers are coming into their showrooms this year and sales Sinclair buys WTVC, others Sinclair Broadcast Group Inc. on Monday completed its $385 million purchase of the broadcast assets of Freedom Communications, including WTVC-TV9, the ABC affiliate in Chattanooga. Sinclair, the Baltimorebased media company which owns or operates 74 stations in 45 markets, had been operating Channel 9 in Chattanooga and seven other TV stations since Dec. 1, 2011, pursuant to a local marketing agreement, while it awaited approval of the sale from the Federal Communications Commission. Freedom Communications filed for bankruptcy in September 2009 but emerged from court protection the next year after splitting up the business. Staff Reports representatives are turning more lookers into buyers. Todd Dyer, general manager for Marshal Mize Ford, said sales for 2012 could grow to rival the peak year of 2007. “This kind of start is usually a very good indicator for the summer,” he said. Despite higher gas prices, trucks continue to outsell cars in Hamilton County. “In the past, higher gas prices tended to slow truck sales, but this go around gas prices don’t seem to be affecting truck sales,” Dyer said. Mike Thornton, general manager for Mountain View Ford, said dealers benefited this winter by the unseasonably warm weather.

The Memphis-based airline said late Sunday its current business model isn’t sustainable. It had tried for months to blend its operating subsidiaries to save money and recover from lost business with INSIDE LOCAL DELTA CONNECTION ■ AirTran rated best in survey of passengers, C4. Pinnacle Airlines Corp., is one of the Delta Connection carriers at the Chattanooga Metropolitan Airport, providing flights from Chattanooga to Atlanta and Detroit. Pinnacle operates about 28 flights per month into Chattanooga as a regional carrier for Delta, or only about 10 percent as many as the 279 monthly flights that ExpressJet (formerly ASA) operates for Delta. Pinnacle currently owes less than $7,500 to the Chattanooga airport, according to airport marketing director Christina Siebold. major airlines because of flying cutbacks. In its filing Sunday, it lists $1.42 billion in debt and $1.54 billion in assets. It ended the third quarter — the most recent quarter for which financial results are available — with See PINNACLE, Page C4 Here’s a tip: if you owe money in Tennessee, get a job waiting tables. Workers worried about garnished wages because of an unpaid bill may have gained a unique escape clause, thanks to a Tennessee Appeals Court judgment against Erlanger Health System. The ruling could allow a worker to virtually escape wage garnishment if the majority of his pay consists of tips, attorneys say. Ex-wives, hospitals and any other business that depends in part on wage garnishment to collect debts may have to re-think their strategy. “Ultimately, the appeals court said if you are the employer, you do not count tip income for what is a garnishable wage,” said Chris Merkal, an attorney for Shoney’s. “This is new law.” Erlanger wouldn’t comment on the case because of patient privacy laws, but spokeswoman Pat Charles said that in order for the hospital to serve as a safety net for the region, it must be able to collect unpaid bills. “We discount fees based on income levels and work out payment plans with our patients on a regular basis,” Charles said. “When patients do not qualify for free care and do not make payments within a reasonable time, we refer accounts to reputable firms for collection.” The law already exempts about three-fourths of an employee’s income from garnishment, so the only thing left from a server’s base salary of about $3 after the ruling would amount to 75 cents an hour. And that’s before taxes, Social Security, Medicare and health insurance are taken out. Gary Lester, who argued the case for collection firm Mayfield and Lester, said the law effectively makes tipped employees “exempt from garnishment.” “The ruling actually gives preference to those in the tipped industry over the guy that works in the factory; the people who work for straight hourly wages,” Lester said.

He’s been playing with the idea of starting a business for about 20 years, but got serious about selling Slawsa in the last year. ■ Location: Company owner Judson Odom has lived in Chattanooga since he was 18, and runs the business locally. ■ Website: Slawsa.com ■ What is Slawsa? Slawsa is a condiment for hot dogs, sandwiches, fish, crackers and any other food that could use a little spicing up. The cabbagebased mix of pickled vegetables has a relish-like consistency with a bit of a crunch, similar to the Southern dish chow-chow. ■ Where to get it: Odom is constantly looking for more distributors, but Slawsa already can be found on the shelves of Ingles. It will start appearing on Publix shelves on June 15. ■ Family history: Odom has been eating Slawsa for as long as he can remember. “It was just something Mom dreamed up, I guess,” he said. “Mom was one of those people who used to pull Staff Photo by Ashlee Culverhouse Judson Odom talks about Slawsa, a cabbage-based salsa that he and his wife make and sell at Aquarium Foods in Chattanooga. The condiment is sold on hot dogs at the Tennessee Aquarium and is distributed in stores across the region. something out of her hat and it was always good.” As Odom grew up, he shared the recipe with friends who encouraged him to start a business with the food. ■ Future goals: Slawsa is in a competition in Walmart’s “Get on the Shelf” program. If consumers vote Slawsa as one of the top 10 most desired new products, Odom’s recipe will appear on Walmart shelves and receive marketing help.

Kerr The Associated Press The Associated Press NEW YORK — Express Scripts Inc. said Monday that it completed its $29.1 billion acquisition of Medco Health Solutions Inc., creating the largest pharmacy benefits manager in the country by far. The closing came after the Federal Trade Commission voted to close its investigation into the deal, clearing the last hurdle in its path. Express Scripts shares rose $2.29, or 4.3 percent, to $56.47 in premarket trading. The deal creates a pharmacy benefits manager, or PBM, so large that it will handle the prescriptions of about 135 million people, or more than one in three Americans. Both companies touted the savings and efficiency that the combination would create, while others in the industry have voiced concerns about competition. Last week, an alliance of drugstores and community pharmacists filed a federal lawsuit to stop the deal from going through, saying it would create a giant pharmacy benefits manager with too much leverage and market share. Express Scripts Chairman and CEO George Paz said the combination of the two companies will both lower costs and improve patient care. Pharmacy benefits managers, or PBMs, run prescription drug plans for employers, government agencies and other clients, using their large purchasing power to negotiate lower drug prices. WASHINGTON — A payday lending operation that offers quick cash over the Internet to desperate people, and the race-car driver allegedly running it, are under federal scrutiny after more than 7,000 complaints to authorities. The Federal Trade Commission filed a complaint Monday in U.S. district court in Nevada against driver Scott Tucker, his brother and several Internet-based lending companies, including AMG Services Inc. Tucker has raced in the American Le Mans Series. The FTC charges that he and others controlled lending companies that piled on undisclosed and inflated fees — in some cases more than triple the amount borrowed — and then collected on the loans illegally by threatening borrowers with arrests and lawsuits. In one example, a consumer was told that a $500 loan would cost him $650 to repay. Instead, the FTC says, the defendants attempted to charge him $1,925 to pay off the loan. The agency says he was threatened with arrest if he didn’t pay that amount. Payday loans are typically small, short-term loans with high interest rates that are effectively advances on a borrower’s next paycheck. According to the FTC, the lending operation involving Tucker has claimed in legal proceedings that it is affiliated with Native American tribes and immune from legal action. The Associated Press Traders gather at the post that handles Global Payments Inc. on the floor of the New York Stock Exchange on Monday in New York. Visa Inc. has dropped the card processor involved in a massive data breach from its registry of providers that meet data security standards, but Visa may reinstate it after a new compliance report. Global Payments says Visa drops it after breach The Associated Press ATLANTA — Visa Inc. has dropped the card processor involved in a massive data breach from its registry of providers that meet data security standards. Global Payments CEO Paul Garcia noted that the company continues to process Visa transactions, but that being dropped from the registry “could give our partners some pause that they’re doing business with someone who experienced a breach.” Garcia said he expects Global Payments to be reinstated once it has been issued a new report of compliance. But he declined to specify when that might be. He said the situation is “absolutely contained” but that the investigation is continuing and that parts of it still need to be resolved. Global Payments says the data breach may affect less than 1.5 million credit cards from various issuers in North America. The company said that credit card data may have been stolen, but that cardholder names, addresses and Social Security numbers were not obtained. The company said it will set up a website later Monday to help consumers who might be affected by the breach. Both Visa and MasterCard say their own systems weren’t compromised. Visa and MasterCard had said Friday that they notified their card holders of the potential for identity theft and illicit charges because of the breach. Aside from the U.S., Global Payments provides its services to government agencies, businesses and others in Canada, Europe and the Asia-Pacific region. The company said it continues to work with regulators, industry third parties and law enforcement to help in the effort to minimize the potential impact on credit cardholders. Last June, hackers stole information for 360,000 credit card accounts at Citigroup. In the past year, there have been high-profile data attacks against the International Monetary Fund, National Public Radio, Google and Sony’s PlayStation Network. For the three months ended Feb. 29, the company reported net income of $57.9 million, or 73 cents per share. Avon rejects $10 billion offer The Associated Press Tennessee Livestock The Associated Press Source: The Associated Press 4-WK NAV CHG %RTN Express Scripts buys Medco Source: Georgia Department of Agriculture The Tennessee livestock report is not available because of USDA computer problems. 4-WK NAV CHG %RTN NAME A saleswoman arranges a display in an Avon store in New York. Struggling Avon Products Inc. is rejecting a buyout offer worth about $10 billion from beauty company Coty Inc. NEW YORK — Coty came calling, but Avon slammed the door. Struggling cosmetics seller Avon Products Inc. on Monday rejected a $10 billion buyout offer from Coty Inc., a smaller beauty products maker looking to capitalize on Avon’s business woes. The $23.25-per-share bid marked a 20 percent premium to Avon’s closing stock price Friday. Avon said that was too low. But investors frustrated with the company’s shrinking profits and disappointing sales growth sent the stock soaring 17 percent on the news. It’s been a steep slide for an American icon. Founded in 1886, Avon became a fixture in households across the country as its legions of “Avon ladies” went door to door selling makeup to family, friends and acquaintances. But North American sales have long been in decline. Now, about 80 percent of Avon’s $11 billion in annual revenue comes from overseas. The company’s profit has shrunk over the past three years.

The hospital pressed Shoney’s to pull money from her wages to pay the bill. But Shoney’s argued that the tips, which are paid directly to Strong by her customers, never come under its control and therefore couldn’t be included in the calculation for how much to garnish. Though courts have traditionally ruled that the tips are fair game for income tax and minimum wage calculation purposes, the Tennessee Court of Appeals in Knoxville held that “tips are not to be included in the calculation of disposable earnings for the purposes of garnishment.” Lester, who collects debts for Erlanger, said the ruling elevates tipped employees into a special class, exempt from paying debts that other workers must pay. “It’s just not fair to allow the tipped employees to have, in essence, a preference over all the others,” he said. Mayfield and Lester have about two months to decide whether to appeal to the state’s Supreme Court.

Pinnacle, which mostly flies between major airports in the East including Chattanooga’s Metropolitan Airport, has been hurt by rising costs and integration problems. It plans to wind down the United Express flights it operates for United Continental Holdings Inc. It will continue Delta Connection flights for Delta Air Lines Inc. It’s already in the process of winding down its service with US Airways. Pinnacle’s Colgan Air subsidiary operated a plane that crashed into a home near Buffalo, N.Y., in 2009, killing 50 people. It was operating under the banner of Continental Connection. With the termination of contracts with US Airways and United, Pinnacle will end flying at Colgan Air. The airline lost $8.8 million in the first nine months of 2011 in contrast to a profit of $17 million in the same period a year earlier. Revenue improved in that time, but costs accelerated at a faster pace. Traffic in the first two months of the year was virtually flat while the carrier dramatically scaled back its number of available seats. After a review, the company’s board decided that reorganization under Chapter 11 was its best option. With Pinnacle’s filing, to the department. Overall, the report shows flying is getting better even through passengers grappling with fare increases, canceled routes and a seemingly endless parade of new fees may not feel that way, said Dean Headley, a business professor at Wichita State University who has cowritten the annual report for 22 years. Airlines are slowly, steadily recovering from their meltdown five years ago, when, under the strain of near-record consumer travel demand, their performance tanked, he said. Industry performance for all four measurements was slightly better in 2011 compared with 2010. “Airlines are f inally catching up with what their promise is, which is getting you there on time 80 percent of the time with your bags,” Headley said. BIN SPACE CHARGES Allegiant Air will charge passengers $35 to carry their own bag on board the plane and stow it in an overhead bin. The change starts with flights booked Wednesday, said spokesman Brian Davis. Each passenger will be allowed to carry one smaller bag that fits under a seat for free. Allegiant carries traffic for United and Delta. The Associated Press Chattanooga Times Free Press File Photo Passengers disembark a Delta Connection flight at Chattanooga Metropolitan Airport. Pinnacle operates some Delta Connection flights for Delta Air Lines. one-quarter of the regional airline industry market is in bankruptcy protection. American Eagle filed along with American Airlines under parent company AMR Corp. in November. Pinnacle said it will ask its pilots and other employees, both union and nonunion, to help it cut costs. That almost certainly means that some of the company’s 7,800 employees will lose their jobs. The airline is also examining its overall business structure and executive functions for possible ways to streamline its operation. Pinnacle’s President and CEO Sean Menke also oversaw a Chapter 11 filing at Frontier Airlines. Pinnacle is losing its chief financial officer to Spirit Airlines Inc. this month. Pinnacle has received a commitment for $74.3 million in debtor-in-possession financing from Delta that will allow it to continue operating while it restructures. Shares plunged 54 percent to just 63 cents in early trading Monday. Pinnacle’s filing marks the 43rd time an airline has sought bankruptcy protection since the Sept. 11 attacks, and the 191st time since the industry was deregulated in 1978. Several airlines have gone through the process more than once. • Continued from Page C1 “When it’s 70 degrees in February, rather than 20 to 30 degrees with snow, people are more apt to come out and buy a car,” he said. “We don’t know if we pulled in some sales early as a result, but I think the whole year looks to be better.” At Hunt Nissan, Ken Hunt said he is enjoying doubledigit sales gains for both new and used vehicles “and we’re expecting a very strong year” with sales projected to be up as much as 20 percent for all of 2012. Corey Choate, general manager for Economy Honda, said his dealership is setting new sales records this year with vehicle sales up by more than 16 percent in the first quarter. “Obviously, the new car market is better this year because consumers are more confident about the economy and there is still a lot of pent-up demand from when sales were down during the recession,” Choate said. “But we’ve gotten aggressive on our prices and we’re going to do everything we can to take care of our customers so they don’t go to another market and buy elsewhere.” Economy Honda boosted its sales last year to a record high and expects even stronger sales in 2012, both for new and used vehicles, Choate said.

D SPORTS • • Tuesday, April 3, 2012 timesfreepress.com/sports LOOKOUTS: Former Chattanooga players making marks with Dodgers, D6 q q HIGH SCHOOL: Fant succeeds Sellers as Notre Dame head coach, D5 NO. 1 KENTUCKY 67, NO. 2 KANSAS 59 Kentucky all the way Calipari gets No. 1 NCAA title, finally NEW ORLEANS — The day before the NCAA championship game, Kansas coach Bill Self said of Kentucky: “They’re probably one of the better teams we’ve had in college basketball from a pure talent standpoint.” When you’ve got six potential pros on your roster and three potential NBA lottery picks, there is little doubt about that. But Wildcats coach John Calipari has had talent before Mark — at UMass, at Wiedmer Memphis and Commentary certainly during his three seasons at UK, where his first team two years ago produced five first-round draft choices. Then again, he may never again have a talent like freshman Anthony Davis, who scored all of six points in the Wildcats’ 67-59 victory in Monday night’s NCAA title game but walked away with MVP honors. “That’s just one of the things that makes him great,” teammate Terrence Jones said as “One Shining Moment” played on the Superdome’s giant video boards and the Wildcats loyalists among the crowd of 70,913 refused to exit the site of the school’s eighth national championship. “Ant doesn’t have to score to dominate a game.” Instead, he pulled down 16 rebounds, blocked six shots and led the Wildcats in assists with five and steals with three. “That’s our game,” said point guard Marquis Teague, whose 14 points backed up teammate Doron Lamb’s 22 for scoring honors. “No matter what else is working or isn’t, we’re always going to play defense.” See WIEDMER, Page D4 Wildcats complete No. 1 run By Eddie Pells The Associated Press The Associated Press Kentucky guard Darius Miller (1) and Kansas star forward Thomas Robinson (0) battle for the ball during the first half of the NCAA Division I championship game Monday night in New Orleans. NEW ORLEANS — No matter where Anthony Davis and his buddies go to make their millions, their ol’ Kentucky home will long remember this championship season. The Wildcats hit the jackpot with their lottery picks Monday night, ignoring Davis’ bad shooting night and parlaying a roster full of NBA talent into a 67-59 victory over Kansas for the program’s eighth national title — and its first since 1998. The one-and-doners did it in a wire-to-wire victory — a little dicey at the end — to cap a season in which anything less than bringing a title back to the Bluegrass State would have been a downer. They got coach John Calipari to his first title in four trips to the Final Four with three different schools. “This is not about me. This is about these 13 players,” Calipari said. “This is about the Big Blue Nation.” Doron Lamb, a sophomore with first-round-draft-pick possibilities, led the Wildcats (38-2) with 22 points, including back-toback 3-pointers that put them up by 16 with 10 minutes left. The Jayhawks (32-7), kings of the comeback all season, fought to the finish and trimmed that deficit to five with 1:37 left. But Kentucky made five free throws down the stretch to seal the win Davis’ fellow lottery prospect, Michael Kidd-Gilchrist, was another headliner, creating space for himself to score all 11 of his points in the first half. Davis, meanwhile, might have had the most dominating sixpoint night in the history of college basketball.

Afterward, the Tennessee receiver told the media that all off the field is well also, though it hardly seemed so last week. In his first interview since late last season, the rising junior star candidly cleared the air about his latest behind-the-scenes trouble.

But I know deep down, the core of Da’Rick, he loves Tennessee, he always has; he wants to be here; he wants to help the team win. “Learning how to do that, every player has to figure it out.” Rogers missed practice last Thursday and had to complete some unspecified internal requirements to return Saturday. The 6- INSIDE foot-3, 208-pound former Calhoun (Ga.) High School star spoke of his desire to move forward, though he had to go back into the recent past in Monday’s interview. “Oh, man, no controversy,” the All-SEC receiver said. “Just had some little things to handle off the field, got those handled and now we’re looking forward to moving forward and becoming a championship-contending team. “I just had a few things on my own personally, and if I was a distraction, I really wasn’t trying to be a distraction.

Coming off an anterior cruciate ligament injury suffered in UT’s loss to South Carolina late last October, Brewer is now working with the safeties after beginning spring practice as an outside linebacker. “I was doing good at linebacker,” Brewer said after Monday morning’s practice, the Volunteers’ fifth of the spring. “They just felt we had more depth at linebacker than safety. “I can do more. I don’t have to go against the offensive linemen and get tangled up with them. I can do a lot more just running around in open space.” The 6-foot-1, 220-pounder began his sophomore season as UT’s strong safety, though the former minor-league baseball player struggled to produce. Brewer made 30 tackles in the last seven games of his freshman year, but he had just 23 in eight games before his injury last season. He’s better playing near the line of scrimmage than in coverage, which prompted his move to strongside (Sam) linebacker. His knee, though, has kicked him back to safety for the time being. “It’s hard to really work him in a lot of contact at Sam,” UT coach Derek Dooley said. “There’s no sense in sitting there for 15 practices and he can’t do much at Sam ’backer, so we put him back at safety. I said when we started him at Sam, it didn’t mean he was going to be there permanently. “This allows him to get a lot of reps and pattern-match. He’s still going to probably play ‘Money,’ which is kind of a sub linebacker when they go nickel. It just allows us to work him a little bit more, that’s all.” Brewer said he thought his flexibility could help him and the overall defense. He admitted he’s still regaining his conditioning following his injury, though he believes he’s ahead of schedule coming off the injury. Learning two positions in a complex defense might be the bigger challenge. “It’s difficult,” he said. “I’m in my playbook all day every day. I’ve got to learn both, and there’s a lot of checks and stuff.” Feeling the blues Dooley halted practice in the first half hour Monday and gathered the team on the large “T” logo on the 50yard line of the indoor practice facility in the Neyland-Thompson Sports Center. He proceeded to rip into the players about the team’s overall atti- Vols • Continued from Page D1 we’re focusing on moving forward.” At one point last week, rumors swirled that Rogers might be moving forward at Georgia State. He referenced the Panthers on his Twitter account, and the Scout.com site covering the program reported Rogers was in the process of transferring. Dooley shot those down last week, and Rogers said Monday there was “no consideration” of leaving UT. “Maybe I need to do a little better job with tweets, letting everybody know what’s really actually going on so next time it won’t be misinterpreted,” he added. “I mean, sometimes you come to a point in your life where you have to be strong about things. I had a little weak moment, and that’s gone behind me and behind the team now.” As for his two-week absence from the Vols’ W Philadelphia New York New Jersey Toronto Miami 29 27 19 18 37 Southeast Division W Orlando Atlanta Washington Charlotte x-Chicago 32 31 12 7 42 Central Division W x-Chicago 42 Indiana 31 Milwaukee 25 Detroit 19 Cleveland 17 x-clinched playoff spot Staff File Photo Tennessee’s Brent Brewer began work this spring at outside linebacker but has returned to a safety position. tude and effort. He talked to them after practice about standards. “Every day it’s going to get challenged to see if you are really committed to it, and you have to exercise a level of grit, an ability to persist in the face of difficulty,” Dooley said. “You also need some leadership around you to affect others in a positive way. We’ve got to keep working on those things. “We’re still getting affected when we’re nicked, when it’s hot, ‘I’m tired’ and we start seeing a little bit of dragging. That’s just something we’ve got to keep harping on over and over and over and over. Once we get that standard and we don’t compromise it, we’re going to be OK.” Dooley called it the “Monday morning blues,” or the usual weekend hangover, as the root of the sluggishness. “You can’t have Monday and you wait till Tuesday to get going,” he said. “You’ve got to go now. We had to remind them of that a little bit.” Peterman’s promise Midterm enrollee Nathan Peterman continues to draw rave reviews. The 6-2, 220-pound quarterback from Jacksonville brought the mix of arm strength, accuracy and mobility that made him attractive as a recruit to UT. Also a cerebral player, Peterman is battling for backup quarterback spot with Justin Worley, who started three games last season when Tyler Bray morning workouts in February, Rogers denied any issues with UT’s strength and conditioning staff. “That was all me focusing on things,” he said. “I wanted to get a lot of school stuff done, and I got all that stuff done. Everything like that is right. “No issues. Maybe a few misunderstandings, but nothing too serious that any football team around doesn’t have.” Rogers noted a conversation he had with quarterback Tyler Bray and fellow receiver Justin Hunter in which they discussed getting “on the right track.” Hunter, who continues to practice without setbacks as he returns from an ACL injury, kept referencing his teammate’s desire to work. “He’s like our brother, so if he had a problem, we were going to be there to help him with it,” Hunter said. “He just needed to calm down. The talk that we had with him put him at 110 percent, so he doesn’t have any more distractions. He’s a hard worker was hurt. “He’s got a lot of promise,” Dooley said. “We have three really good players at that position, which is rare for any program, and they’re young. I’m excited about what we’ve got there. “I think all three of them are good for each other because they’re all capable. Nathan just doesn’t have any experience. I think Justin, him having played last year, it’s going to help.” Free tickets UT announced Monday that admission to the Orange & White Game on April 21 will be free this season. The game, which will conclude the Vols’ spring practice, is scheduled to start at 2:30 p.m. The one-hour autograph session with Dooley, assistant coaches and Vol players will be held at the stadium at 12:15 p.m. “A significant part of what makes Tennessee such a special place is the outstanding support of our passionate and loyal fans,” UT athletic director Dave Hart said in the university’s release. “We wanted to express our appreciation to our fan base in a tangible and visible manner.” Two teams of UT lettermen will play a flag football game during halftime of the game.

He threw that out the window and he’s ready.” Dooley said the important conversation is a reflection of the family feeling in UT’s program. “Those guys have got to play together and work together,” the coach said. “They spend a lot of hours together, and they’ve got to be able to iron out any differences they have. But I know this: Everybody in our organization, there’s a lot of love, and sometimes love is tough love and that’s part of parenting. But that kind of player involvement is critical on a team.” Rogers’ presence also is critical for the Vols’ success. With Hunter and Bray hurt last season, he was UT’s primary offensive weapon. He caught 67 passes for 1,040 yards and nine touchdowns despite playing on an offense with three different quarterbacks and the nation’s 116th-ranked rushing attack. Pro Day • Continued from Page D1 the Broncos, Titans, Falcons, Giants, Patriots, Steelers and Saints. The Steelers, Falcons, Bears, Seahawks, Dolphins and Vikings all had quarterback coaches present. Coleman wasn’t the only former Moc happy with his day. Chris LewisHarris, who split time between cornerback and safety during his career, also tested well. So did Bradford. Lewis-Harris and Bradford both ran the 40-yard dash between 4.4 and 4.5 seconds. Unofficially, Bradford’s time was 4.43 and the defender’s was 4.47. Coleman’s unofficial time was 4.87. Bradford had the highest vertical leap at 36 inches, one more than Lewis-Harris. Lewis-Harris and former Baylor and Maryville College receiver Wesley Idlette had 18 repetitions (of 225 pounds) on the bench press, the most of the day. “All you can ask for is a chance, and today I got a chance to show what I could do,” said Lewis-Harris, a second-team All-Southern Conference player in 2011. Atlantic Division Staff Photo by Angela Lewis Former Mocs defensive back Chris Lewis-Harris sprints during pro day at Finley Stadium. At least half of the current Mocs came out for the pro day, and they were joined by more than a dozen former players, as well as a small crowd of parents and UTC fans. The number of scouts and coaches on hand was slightly larger than last year, “I think we’re a lot better offense with him and Justin,” fifth-year senior cornerback Prentiss Waggner said, using the phrase “no biggie” to describe the situation. “You can’t really double either one because the other one will kill you. I think with both of them out there, our offense is explosive.” Dooley said Rogers’ leash moving forward is no shorter than any other player’s. “We don’t have different standards, despite what a lot of people think,” he said. “Does that mean we treat everybody the same? No. We have some big-picture standards that it’s black-andwhite how we handle them, but how we manage it with each player is very different depending on what their personality is and depending on a lot of things. “The leash is similar, but there’s also a break point on every player’s.” Contact Patrick Brown at [email protected] or 901-581-7288.

The Cleveland Browns cornerback was among the former players in attendance, and UTC coach Russ Huesman said all the attention Mocs are getting from the NFL can only help the program. “I think it’s huge exposure any time you get something like this,” he said. “The number of scouts and coaches that were out here was tremendous.” Also working out Monday were former UTC running back Erroll Wynn, who finished his career in 2010, as well as former Western Michigan tight end Dallas Walker. Coleman, Bradford, Benford and Walker spent several days practicing together leading up to Monday, working on their timing together. Coleman said they had a script of more than 40 throws that they went through. “They looked great and did, I thought, a really good job,” Coleman said. “I know they were getting tired because they did a lot of running and that sometimes showed on the deep balls, but overall it was a really successful day.” Contact John Frierson at jfrierson@ timesfreepress.com or 423-757-6268.

State By David Brandt The Associated Press STARKVILLE, Miss. — New Mississippi State basketball coach Rick Ray doesn’t sound like a man ready for a long rebuilding process. “We will be successful,” Ray said. “I don’t know how to lose. All if have known is winning my whole life.” Ray was introduced as Mississippi State’s head basketball coach Monday at Humphrey Coliseum after a nearly three-week coaching search. He promised to bring a hard-nosed approach to the program. The 40-year-old spent the last two years as the top assistant at Clemson. He’s also been an assistant coach at Purdue, Northern Illinois and Indiana State. Ray touted his experience at hard-nosed programs — especially Purdue and Indiana State — as an indicator of how the Bulldogs’ program would be run.

Mixed calls Officials still adjusting to block-charge Staff Writer NEW ORLEANS — It has happened more than once in every game throughout this NCAA basketball tournament. An offensive player drives to the rim. A defensive player appears to get there late. There’s a collision around the arc that the NCAA has added under the basket to make the block-charge call easier to officiate. The referee whistles a charge. A video replay appears to indicate a block. The crowd inside the arena boos. Is this any way to officiate March Madness? “I’d like to see it be more consistent,” said Pete Gillen, who coached Providence over the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga in the 1997 Sweet 16 and now does television work. “I like the idea of the arc, but there are too many charges called. The defensive player needs to be set for at least three-quarters of a second. You need to be set before the offensive player leaves his feet. Otherwise, it should be a block.” Fran Fraschilla has both coached college basketball Final • Continued from Page D1 16 rebounds, six blocks, five assists and three steals — and made his only field goal with 5:13 left in the game. It was a sure-fire illustration of how the 6-foot-10 freshman can exert his will on a game even on a rare night when the shot isn’t falling. “Well, it’s not me, it’s these guys behind me,” Davis said after his 1-for10 performance. “They led us this whole tournament. This whole game I was struggling offensively, and I told my team, ‘Every time down, you all score the ball; I’m just going to defend and rebound.’” It helps to have teammates like his. Davis is the likely first pick in the draft should he choose to come out, and Kidd-Gilchrist won’t be far behind. Another first-round prospect, freshman Marquis Teague, scored 14 points. Yet another, sophomore Terrence Jones, had nine points, seven rebounds and two of Kentucky’s 11 blocked shots. “We’ve got a lot of great players on this team,”’ Teague said. “Other players stepped up and made plays. He had confidence in us to make plays and that’s what we tried to do.” Kansas also has a lottery pick in AP All-American Thomas Robinson. But he was harassed all night by Davis and Jones and finished with 18 points and 17 rebounds on a frustrating evening nonetheless. Calipari avenged a final-game loss to Kansas coach Bill Self in 2008 when — Manhattan and New Mexico — and served as a commentator for ESPN. “The rule has been an adjustment for players, coaches and officials,” he said of the arc that was supposed to make it easier for officials, with collisions outside the arc usually being ruled as charges and those inside the arc (under the basket) ruled as blocks, similar to the NBA. “Many top officials I’ve talked to are still learning to look for the players’ feet outside the arc, as well as the legal guarding position of the defender. Over time, the arc is going to make the officials’ job easier, but they’re not there yet. Still, I think they’re getting it right at at least the same rate they did — which is probably around 96 percent — before the arc was painted on the floor.” Atlanta host in 2013 The 75th Final Four comes to Atlanta’s Georgia Dome next spring, with the national semifinals scheduled for April 6 and the final to be played on April 8. But there’s much work to do before that game, particularly for Khalil Johnson, the former chief operating officer for the World Congress Center and Georgia Dome who now advises the NCAA on its championships, especially the Final Four. Though Johnson was still busy solving problems for this Final Four on Monday night, he also has spent a good deal of time the past few days thinking about next year’s event. “It takes almost a month to set it up and take it down,” he said. “It’s a long process, obviously a big event, and you want to get everything right.” Other than Atlanta, the only regional sites remotely close to Chattanooga will be Dayton, Ohio — which will host the “First Four” play-in games as well as a second- and third-round site — and Lexington, Ky., which also will be a second- and third-round site.

Cal was coaching the Memphis Tigers. It was a great season in Lawrence, though, considering where the Jayhawks began. Kansas lost four of its top five scorers off last year’s roster. There were times early in the season when Self and his old buddy and mentor, Larry Brown, would stand around at practices and wonder if this was a team that could even make the NCAA tournament. It did — and won its eighth straight conference title. None of this, however, was for the faint of heart. The Jayhawks trailed by double digits in three of their five tournament games leading to the final and played every game down to the wire. They fell behind by 18 late in the first half of this one, and this time, there was no full comeback to be made — not against these guys. Davis went only 1-for-10 from the floor, but he realized early this was no shoot-first night for him at the Superdome. Sporting his near-unibrow, which the UK Wildcat mascot also decided to paste on, he endured the worst shooting night of a short college career in which he makes 64 Braves reliever stopped for DUI The Associated Press L AW R E N C EV I L L E , Ga. — Atlanta Braves relief pitcher Cristhian Martinez was arrested early Monday and charged with drunken driving after police saw him weaving in and out of a lane while driving slowly on a major Atlanta highway. Martinez was stopped on Interstate 85 and charged with impeding the flow of traffic, improper lane change and DUI after his blood alcohol level registered at 0.13, said Gwinnett County Police Corporal Jake Smith. The legal limit in Georgia is 0.08. He was booked into the Gwinnett County Detention Center at 4:24 a.m. and released on bond of about $1,600 a few hours later. Team officials said in a released statement they were “very concerned” to learn of Martinez’s arrest and that he will be required to be evaluated by an independent professional. Martinez, 30, had secured a spot in Atlanta’s bullpen after a solid spring training performance. Hudson goes 2 innings At Kissimmee, Fla., Braves pitching ace Tim Hudson made his first appearance of the spring, allowing an infield single over two innings in an 8-2 loss to the New York Mets. Ruben Tejada hit a threerun homer and Bobby Parnell allowed two hits in three innings for New York. Hudson went 16-10 with a 3.23 ERA last season but had back surgery during the offseason and isn’t expected back until May. He said he felt fine after his two innings and could have gone longer. The Mets scored four runs in the ninth, two on bases-loaded walks to Rafael Fernandez and Richard Lucas. Rather than having a starter face a National League East rival, Parnell, who made 60 relief appearances year, started for the Mets. Freddie Freeman and Jordan Parraz homered for the Braves, while Brandon Beachy allowed four runs on seven hits in six innings. Gearrin sent down Cory Gearrin, the relief pitcher from Rhea County, was among victims of the Braves’ last cuts. He and Julio Teheran, who was battling for a role in the startCory Gearrin ing rotation, were optioned to Gwinnett of the International League. Gearrin had a 3.38 ERA 2 over 10 ⁄3 innings this spring, and sources close to the team said the 25-year-old right-hander figures to be in the Braves’ bullpen at some point this season. Teheran had an inflated 9.37 ERA over 1 16 ⁄3 innings this spring. Meanwhile, it was announced that rookie Jordan Pastornicky has won the starting shortstop’s job over Andrelton Simmons. Pastornicky, acquired from the Blue Jays in the Yunel Escobar deal, batted .314 with seven homers, 45 RBIs and 27 stolen bases in stops at Class AA and Class AAA. The Braves reassigned catchers J.C. Boscan and Jose Yepez, Simmons, fellow infielders Drew Sutton and Josh Wilson and outfielders Luis Durango and Parraz to their minor league camp.

He set the tone early on defense, swatting Robinson’s shot twice, grabbing rebounds, making pretty bounce passes for assists. Early in the second half, he made a steal that also could have been an assist, knocking the ball out of Robinson’s hands and directly to Jones, who dunked for a 46-30 lead. Then, finally, with 5:13 left in the game, he spotted up for a 15-foot jumper from the baseline that swished. The crowd, a little more full of Kentucky fans than Kansas, went crazy.

Oglethorpe, GA 706-866-2491 34326976 By Mark Wiedmer and grabbed a cowbell, ringing it for several seconds to applause from the hundreds of fans who came to listen to the new coach. “The system we will run is based on integrity,” Ray said. “I believe you win by doing things the right way. I want to make sure we put a team on this court that you guys are proud of.” Ray replaces Rick Stansbury, who retired in March after 14 seasons leading the program. Athletic director Scott Stricklin said Ray “is ready to be a head coach” after consistently reaching the NCAA tournament as an assistant. He is the first black men’s basketball coach in school history. “As I would talk to basketball people and say, hey, this is what I’m looking for, I want somebody who is going to fit these attributes, his name kept coming up,” Stricklin said. “It’s a name I kept on the list, and it got to the point where I said I probably need to talk to this guy.” 34265871 • Continued from Page D1 They played defense so well that Kansas hit only 35.5 percent of its shots in the game and had 11 of them blocked. A single play to showcase Davis’ domination: In the final seconds, desperate to hit a 3-pointer to cut the margin to three, the Jayhawks’ Elijah Johnson — who finished with 13 points and hit three 3s — started to shoot from the corner but was forced to stop when Davis stepped out to help, his 6-foot-9 frame and 7-5 wingspan spooking Johnson into a travel. Game over. It had looked over from early in the first half, as Kentucky roared to lead by 18 points, settling for a 14-point cushion (41-27) at the break. And so the question of whether Coach Cal’s latest collection of one-and-dones could finish No. 1 seemed already settled. He had professed throughout this tournament not to care. And he’s accomplished more than almost any active coach not named Mike Krzyzewski. He’s one of only two coaches in the history of the sport to take three different schools to No. 1 — the other being former St. John’s/North Carolina/South Carolina great Frank McGuire. He’s also one of only two active coaches to take three different schools to the Final Four, the other being Louisville’s Rick Pitino. But none of that cuts Calipari much slack in some circles. They remember you for NCAA titles, and the 53-yearold Calipari had yet to win one before Monday night, despite having reached four Final Fours in his career. At halftime that didn’t seem a concern. The band The Fray had started things off with the national anthem, but the first half wasn’t so much about both Kansas and Kentucky joining the fray as it was the Jayhawks fraying around the edges. At the break, the Cats were up 25-14 on the boards and were outshooting the Jayhawks from the field, 53 percent to 33 percent, and already had two double-figure scorers — Lamb with 12 points and Michael Kidd-Gilchrist with 11. A single stat to show how deep and versatile this Kentucky was this season: Davis — honored as the national player of the year no fewer than five times in the last two weeks — didn’t score a point in the opening period. But then Kansas caught life, just as it had against Cal’s Memphis team in 2008. It pulled within nine with a little over four minutes to play. It had UK playing not to lose. Then it cut the margin to five. Could this be 2008 all over again, Self besting Cal when it mattered most? But then Davis stepped out to befuddle Johnson, the game ended and the partying began. “We’re where we wanted to be all season,” Teague said. “We’re No. 1.” .. timesfreepress.com ..

He is a great role model for young men, he has an elite football mind, and his confidence and optimism are contagious.” Similar to Sellers’ hiring, Fant was a Fighting Irish assistant for one season.

My number one goal being a volunteer foot- TSSAA to hear mat proposal By Ward Gossett Staff Writer It’s possible that a split in Division I wrestling, recognizing AAA and A/ AA state champions, could become a Tennessee high school reality by the 2013-14 school year. Mark Reeves, an assistant executive director with the TSSAA, confirmed Monday that a proposal would be presented to the organization’s Board of Control at its June meeting and that the state governing body was exploring options to accommodate the change. “I don’t know if it’s going to happen, but the vote will take place at the June meeting when the board meets to consider [all] sports classification changes,” Reeves said. The board is expected also to consider whether to keep six public school divisions for the football playoffs or return to five. If the board accepts the wrestling proposal, which is to be submitted by Martiin Luther King coach Paul Bass, it is likely that the Division I traditional tournament would drop from 32 to 24 qualifiers for Class AAA and that the A/AA tournament would have 12man brackets. Reeves said the possible changes would not affect Division II, which currently has a nonqualifying 16-man tournament, or the girls’ tournament, which still has invitational status. Numerous Division I coaches were hopeful of keeping the 32-man AAA bracket and adding a 16-man A/AA bracket. Hixson coach Garrick Hall, whose team would be in the new A/AA tournament, said he did not like the 24/12 option. “Ultimately you’d like to grow the sport, but this is almost like cutting off a hand,” Hall said. “If you to go with 32and 16-man brackets, it might ultimately grown the sport. I like the way it is to a certain point, but I’d also like to take more kids and have more medals in the state.” Garrick Hall If it is a matter of time constraints, Hall said, maybe the state could look at making consolation matches three or four minutes rather than five, going with three one-minute periods or a two-minute period and two one-minute periods. Hall also is concerned about the current Region 4 tournament, especially if teams are allowed only two qualifiers. The current Region 4 field, excluding AAA schools Soddy-Daisy and Ooltewah, has 12 teams with Central, Hixson and Notre Dame having won seven of the eight A/AA state duals championships. One major worry in this area is Soddy-Daisy, Cleveland and Bradley Central winding up in the same region. Those teams have won the last 13 traditional championships. “One of the concerns and certainly one we’d want to listen to if is you have some of the best teams all in the same area. It’s a legitimate concern,” Reeves said. One idea the TSSAA is considering is eliminating the eight region tournaments and going with four “super regionals” much like the current track and field format with six medalists advancing from each to the state tournament. “If the board approves an A/Double-A tournament, we have to figure out which route Triple-A would go,” Reeves said. “We’re working at looking at hypothetical regions. We have also looked at eight regions and we have even looked at six regions. “What we don’t want to do is add another [qualifying] tournament. We would like to keep the calendar the same whether it’s region or sectional tournaments. We might even look at less qualifers from Memphis, which has 12 [AAA wrestling] teams total.” As for the classification debate on football, Reeves said the TSSAA sent out a survey to the 300-plus footballplaying schools asking for responses signed by principals. He said only slightly more than half the schools had bothered to respond and that those responses were close to a 50-50 split. Contact Ward Gossett at wgossett@ timesfreepress.com or 423-886-4765. Louisville power set for tourney Staff Reports Soddy-Daisy is ranked No. 19 in the USA Today/ National Fastpitch Coaches Association high school softball poll and No. 24 in the MaxPreps Xcellent 25 but won’t be the only nationally ranked team in its 22nd Lady Trojan Invitational this weekend. Ballard (10-0), rated No. 25 in the USA Today/NFCA poll, is making the trip from Louisville, Ky. The University of Tennessee’s Ralph Weekly, who coached first-team All-American India Chiles, a Ballard graduate, helped with the connection between the schools. One of the Lady Bruins’ standouts this season is sophomore Jessica Adell, a speedy center fielder and pitcher who already has committed to UT. Ballard coach Alan Jones said his team played the Lady Trojans to a scoreless tie in pool play in 2008 in the Bob Jones tournament at Huntsville, Ala. He also mentioned entrants Brentwood High and Baylor as programs he’s familiar with. “I haven’t looked that closely at the schedule yet, but I know some of the teams playing in it,” Jones said. “I’m sure it’s going to be a great tournament.” Games are scheduled to get under way Thursday afternoon at Soddy-Daisy High School with Obion County Central playing Grace Academy at 4:30, followed by East Hamilton vs. Soddy-Daisy at 6:30. The rest of the tournament will be played on four fields at Soddy Lake Kids’ Park with Friday’s pool-play schedule slated to start at 9 a.m. and final games set for 9 p.m. Based on pool records, teams will be placed in either Gold or Silver brackets for single-elimination. The Silver championship is scheduled Saturday afternoon at 4:30 with the Gold final at 5. Harris allowed visitors Soddy-Daisy baseball player Talon Harris, injured in a preseason automobile accident, remains in Erlanger’s intensive care unit but now is in what Trojans coach Jared Hensley called “intermediate ICU.” He is in a private room and can have visits between the hours of 8 a.m. and 8 p.m., the coach said. Hensley also said that Harris, who sustained facial, head, pelvic and leg injuries, had begun voluntary movement of his arms. “He still can’t talk because of the tracheotomy, but he’s alert. His eyes stay focused on you when you’re talking to him,” the coach said. Byerley to Tusculum Hixson’s Brianna Byerley has accepted a softball scholarship offer from Tusculum College and plans to sign next month. She already had applied and been accepted by the NCAA Division II school in Greeneville, Tenn., before visiting in October on “prospect day.” She said it was then she fell in love with Tusculum and its campus. Byerley led the Lady Wildcats in batting last season and is expected to be an offensive leader again this year. “She told me a couple of weeks ago their coach [Fred Gillum] really liked her swing,” Hixson coach Jayme Putman said. “She’s got a great bat and a good eye.” Byerley pitched as a freshman and sophoBrianna more to help Byerley the team but now either plays first base or is the designated player. “That has allowed me to just focus a lot more on hitting and fielding, especially hitting,” said Byerley, who plans to major in athletic training. “Coach Putman is really good at helping us with our technique on hitting.” News From Across 12 Counties Every day, every week in the... ■ Drew Toth, Ooltewah: He went 3-for-4 and scored a run while knocking in another in the Owls’ 8-3 5-AAA victory over Cleveland. ■ Michael Allen, South Pittsburg: He doubled and singled in two at-bats in the Pirates’ 5-4 victory at Sale Creek.

He played in 51 games with the Dodgers last season, going 21 with a 2.85 ERA and five saves. ■ Pitcher Scott Elbert — Elbert is expected to be among the 25 opening-day Dodgers, as he’s the only left-handed reliever. He first reached the majors in 2008 Scott Elbert from DoubleA affiliate Jacksonville, and he started the ’09 season in Chattanooga, going 2-3 with a 3.90 ERA in 12 games (11 starts).

They need to make those decisions and we’ll move forward,” Goodell said Monday. “Bill’s a great coach, and I’m sure will add a lot of personality and intrigue. And he’s as competitive as they get, so I’m sure he’ll do a good job.” Leaf GPS targeted At Helena, Mont., Montana police said Monday they were seeking a warrant for the GPS in Ryan Leaf’s pickup truck to get information that will link the ex-quarterback to two break-ins and possibly lead them to stolen prescription painkillers. He is accused of breaking into homes Thursday and Sunday and stealing prescription medication. Central Montana Drug Task Force Commander Chris Hickman said Leaf broke into a home outside Great Falls on Sunday, just two days after he posted $76,000 bail for his first arrest. Hickman said the owners returned home Sunday afternoon and found Leaf inside. Leaf told them he had the wrong house, and the owners later discovered three bottles of pills were missing.

ON THE MEND ■ Pitcher Rubby De La Rosa — De La Rosa began last season in Chattanooga and went 2-2 with a 2.93 ERA in eight starts before being promoted to Los Angeles. He went 4-5 with a 3.71 ERA in 13 games (10 starts) with the Dodgers before undergoing Tommy John surgery in August. De La Rosa is expected to miss most, if not all, of the 2012 season. Staff File Photo by John Rawlston Jerry Sands has moved up. HAVING TO WAIT ■ Outfielder Jerry Sands — Sands led the 2010 Lookouts with 17 home runs despite playing just 68 games following his promotion from Single-A, and he was the organization’s minor league player of the year. He made his debut with the Dodgers last season and hit .253 in 61 games, including .342 in September. Sands hit just .158 this spring, however, and will start out in Albuquerque.

Day and Scott will be among the 92 participants when the 2012 Masters begins Thursday. “I can’t remember any of my rounds last year,” Day said in his pre-tournament news conference. “It’s hard to explain. Maybe I have short-term memory loss. “After I finished the 72nd hole, I was really just, ‘Wow, I played great.’” No one from Australia has won the Masters. “I think it makes the story a little juicier,” Scott said. “It’s one of those sporting hurdles that no Australian has gotten over. Thanks to Greg Norman and the years he played and icon he is in Australia, he took golf beyond the golfers and made it recognized by the whole Australian public.” Neither Scott nor Day is considered among the favorites this time. Tiger Woods, Mickelson and McIlroy have that distinction. That sits just fine with Scott, who has finished in the top 25 in five of his previous 10 Masters tournaments. “It only matters how I feel about my game is and not what people are saying,” said Scott, who played 18 holes Monday. “l feel my game is in great shape.

Out went emerald green and lemon yellow; in came spruce, mallard and a little something called “lightning.” That was just the start. The gaudy uniform craze that began with Nike co-founder Phil Knight’s alma mater has gripped schools from Maryland to Boise State, hitting Notre Dame and Michigan along the way. Is the NFL next? Nike is taking over the pros from Reebok with a gala uniform unveiling set for today in New York City. The design details are a closely guarded secret at the Beaverton-based shoe and apparel maker, but some images — there’s no way to know if they’re real or fake — have circulated on the Internet. The biggest changes will likely be in the performance aspect of the uniforms, like newer lightweight fabrics and a sleek silhouette, but a few teams could get the Cinderella treatment.

Staff Photo by Ashlee Culverhouse Maria Chattin-Carter watches as children practice a song during a rehearsal for the musical “Stellaluna” at the Chattanooga Theatre Centre. Chattin-Carter is the director of the Youth Theatre. Protests require moral energy Behind the scenes THEATRE CENTRE’S YOUTH DIRECTOR SEEKS TO CHALLENGE KIDS, HERSELF One of the protesters camped out on the courthouse lawn called me and asked what I thought of their protest. I asked, “What is it you are protesting?” and after fumbling a little with his answer, he finally said, “I am not sure.” I said, Dalton “The most Roberts important Commentary thing in a protest movement is to have a clear message about what you are protesting. You can’t rally the troops without it and, more importantly, you cannot sway public opinion.” The first point (rallying the troops) is essential to success. The reason the civil-rights movement prevailed was that there was a hard-core group of supporters who were convinced they were right, and many of them were willing to die for it. Indeed, many did. The PBS documentary By Holly Leber Staff Writer S ome might say Maria ChattinCarter has come full circle. After graduating from East Ridge High School in 1994, she attended Stephens College in Columbia, Mo., receiving of bachelor of fine arts degree in theater. Fifteen years after returning to her hometown, Chattin-Carter is in her ninth season as the director of the Chattanooga Theatre Centre Youth Theatre, where she took the stage herself as a child. Currently, Chattin-Carter is in the midst of producing “Stellaluna,” based on the book by Janell Cannon, about a fruit bat who lives among birds. The play incorporates music, sign language, dance and puppets. “We’ve never done anything like this before,” she said. “Stellaluna” is Chattin-Carter’s 36th play as director of the Youth Theatre. She said she is seeking unique works that will be challenging both to herself and to the children. “That’s why we’re doing ‘Stellaluna,’ because it’s a little bit different,” she said. “[We want] something to keep our audience jazzed and coming to see things.” How did you get involved with theater? I was extremely shy as a child. My parents saw this thing on television for modeling classes when I was about 14, so they put me in modeling classes to build up my self-esteem. I was terrified. I sat in the car and cried. I didn’t want to go in by myself. But I went in, and they also had acting classes. I realized, I’m only 5-foot-1; there’s no way I’m ever going to be a model. I started working with the acting class, and I enjoyed it. Q A Q What was your first role? I remember being in a third-grade play. I had a line, “nine times five is 45,” and that A was all I said. That was my very first time being onstage. Then I played Rapunzel at the Theatre Centre when I was a senior in high school. That was probably the biggest thing I’d done at that point. What got you involved with children? It was through the theater. When I was in college, I’d contemplated doublemajoring in theater and education and decided not to do education. Looking back on it, that would have been a good thing to have, considering what I do. But when the theater director asked me to help with TIE, theater in education, we actually taught Q A See SCENES, Page E6 CHATTIN-CARTER AT A GLANCE ■ Age: 36. ■ Family: Married to David, has three children and three stepchildren. ■ Favorite play: “The Children’s Hour,” by Lillian Hellman. ■ Favorite shows she’s done at CTC: “Pinocchio Commedia,” “Yellow Boat,” “The Outsiders” ■ Favorite movies: “Edward Scissorhands,” “Young Guns” ■ Favorite actor: Robin Williams. ■ Favorite actress: Natalie Portman. ■ Hobbies: Reading, theater, spending time with her kids. ■ Unusual skills: Juggling, playing saxophone, rollerskating. ■ Favorite quote: “Creativity is more important than knowledge.” — Albert Einstein See ROBERTS, Page E6 TALENTSHOW Practice key to sisters’ success at statewide competition By Casey Phillips CLAIM TO FAME Staff Writer Like most young musicians, Hannah Claire Davis, 13, and her sister Gracyn, 11, don’t like practicing on the piano, but they recognize that it’s a necessary evil. “Playing music doesn’t come easily,” Gracyn said. “Sometimes I get frustrated and want to scream and bang the notes.” Despite their aversion to doing so, the Davis sisters said they try to spend about an hour a day at the bench of their home piano. Even if they miss a day here or there, they said they are constantly pushed to excel by their private instructor, Viktoria Lindsay. Sisters Hannah Claire and Gracyn Davis won first-place trophies in the Tennessee Federation of Music Clubs’ statewide competition for the concerto and primary/ elementary contemporary composer categories. Gracyn and Hannah Claire began studying under Lindsay three and four years ago, respectively. Lindsay said that she expects more from the sisters than the other 38 students in her studio because of their innate potential. “They are above average,” she said. “If I don’t expect as much of them, they won’t work as hard. They have a lot of potential, both of these girls, and I have a lot of expectation.” On March 23, the Davis girls’ dedication paid off when they walked away with three first-place awards at a statewide, judged event hosted at Carson-Newman College by the Tennessee Federation of Music Clubs.

If an Distributed by Universal Uclick FAITH Widow needs comfort, not criticism Country stars stampede to studio to help Richie By Chris Talbott The Associated Press NASHVILLE — Kenny Chesney was so excited about the idea of working with Lionel Richie that he drunk-dialed the pop legend to suggest a song. Darius Rucker tossed aside a lyric sheet in the studio, saying he’d been preparing for the moment his entire life. And so many people were clamoring to get on the project that stars like Keith Urban and Brad Paisley didn’t even make the cut — this time. It’s not surprising that a musician would consider working with Richie a dream: The Grammy and Oscar winner is considered one of music’s all-time greats, having sold more than 22 million albums over a career that has spanned nearly four decades, from his time as a member of The Commodores to his illustrious solo career. Richie has also penned classics that include “Endless Love,” “All Night Long” and “Say You, Say Me.” But the excitement over his country duets album also reflects Richie’s deep roots — and remarkable success — in the genre. Richie wrote one of country music’s enduring hits, Kenny Rogers’ “Lady,” and Conway Twitty’s take on the Commodores’ “Three Times a Lady” became a huge country hit. In addition, Richie collaborated with Alabama on “Deep River Woman,” another song that became a country classic. So mix Richie’s rich pop history with his country music legacy, and you can see why his return to his country roots on the new duets album “Tuskegee,” named after his hometown in Alabama, is creating such a buzz in Nashville. “It’s kind of surreal,” said Jason Aldean, who cut “Say You, Say Me” on the album. “I mean, he was one of the biggest stars on the planet when I was growing up. And to be in the studio with him and to have gotten to be friends with him over the last year, it’s just crazy.” Richie was mobbed on the red carpet at the Country Music Association Awards last year, he was feted and joined The Associated Press Lionel Richie is reaping what he sowed during his dalliance with country music 30 years ago with the release of “Tuskegee,” a country duets album named for his hometown in Alabama. by Rogers at the South by Southwest Music Festival last month in Austin, Texas, and he received a salute from the Academy of Country Music on Sunday’s awards show (he’s also the subject of its annual television special, which airs April 13). Richie says his multigenre success can be boiled down to one thing: storytelling. “The storytelling is the same,” he said. “I have always said the honesty is in the lyrics, the honesty is in what’s the story about, whether you put a steel guitar in the middle of it or whether you leave the steel guitar out or put a choir in the background, or guitar or saxophone solo. It’s still the same.” Chesney remembers Richie being on the mixtape that successfully won the high school student the heart of a girl. “Penny Lover” was the dominant song of the time, and he was a fan of “My Love.” Chesney intended to claim the latter song immediately after deciding to join the project following a few bottles of wine. “I just decided that I was going to call Lionel and tell him I wanted to sing on his record,” Chesney said. “It was a pretty spirited voicemail, I can tell you that, because I actually sang the verse and like half of the song of ‘My Love’ onto his voicemail.” Richie took up the duets idea for his first album since 2009’s “Just Go.” When the California resident arrived in Nashville, to his surprise he found they still made music the way they did when he first hit town back in the early 1980s. They played their instruments live in the studio, made decisions on the fly, with no preprogrammed tracks and few preconceived notions. He REVIEW Richie’s classics freshly done on new CD By Michael McCall The Associated Press LIONEL RICHIE, “Tuskegee” (Mercur y Nashville) Lionel Richie named his new album “Tuskegee” for his Alabama hometown, a subtle reference to his Southern roots. By remaking his hits with such country stars as Tim McGraw, Willie Nelson and Shania Twain, he makes those ties explicit. “Tuskegee” may play on a well-worn concept — a legendary singer pairing with younger artists on classic tunes. But, with few exceptions, these recordings come off as carefully considered, with fresh arrangements that highlight the strengths of the material and the talents involved. Richie’s voice sounds as smooth and rich as ever, adding new wrinkles to his phrasing. Of the guests, those rising to the occasion include Sugarland’s Jennifer Nettles, who performs a dramatically beautiful “Hello”; country rocker Jason Aldean, who shows he’s a fine balladeer on “Say You, Say Me;” and Kenny Chesney, whose intimate tones work well on the romantic “My Love.” Only a couple of songs don’t work: Jimmy Buffett, for one, turns “All Night Long” into a steeldrum workout that sounds A: Only she could say, of course, why she chose to remember him in this way — although she may not know herself. Sometimes our motives are hidden or Billy Graham unclear even to ourselves. The Psalmist asked God to “Forgive my hidden faults” (Psalm 19:12). From what you say, however, I suspect one reason could be her regret over the past. In other words, perhaps she was trying to make up for the way they treated each other when he was alive. In an obscure kind of way, she may even have been trying to apologize for the failures of the past and let others know that she really did love him, in spite of their problems. Instead of dwelling on this, however, I hope you and other members of her family will reach out to her and assure her of your love and concern. She can’t change the past, and neither can you, but you can let her know you care for her. Some of the saddest words in the Bible are these: “People have heard my groaning, but there is no one to comfort me” (Lamentations 1:21). In addition, ask God to help you point her to the comfort and hope we have in Christ. Because of his death and resurrection we can have hope — hope for this life and hope for the life to come. When we know him, the Bible says, “weeping may remain for a night, but rejoicing comes in the morning” (Psalm 30:5). c. Tribune Media Services stiff instead of joyous. All in all, Richie proves his middle-of-the-road pop has more in common these days with contemporary country than with modern pop. The album also underscores that country music, or any genre, benefits from strong melodies and powerful performances. Check out this track: “Deep River Woman,” a song Richie wrote and recorded with country group Alabama, sounds even better when paired with the prettier, and more complex, harmonies of Nashville vocal group Little Big Town. Giving houseplants as gifts makes potted plants great value By Nara Schoenberg Chicago Tribune Q: Last week, we went to a funeral for my husband’s cousin, and we were appalled at how elaborate it was and how much his wife must have spent on it. The whole family knows they didn’t get along, so why do you think she did this? They weren’t wealthy or anything. — Mrs. E.B. felt comfortable and familiar for the first time in years. And before he realized it, he was turning the keys over to each new friend he brought into the studio, telling them to remake the song in their image. “The most important thing was, we don’t change the melody,” the 62-year-old singer said. “We may change a little bit of the arrangements, but we didn’t change where the crowd comes in. So, yes, we changed ‘Say You, Say Me’ from this anthemic thing to a little bit of a ‘Lay Lady Lay’ kind of feel, but the crowd still knows where to come in. ... I wanted to put a little thing in there where each of my guest artists felt like they weren’t copping out.” He let Tim McGraw turn “Sail On” from a gentle letdown into something much more final. Willie Nelson somehow makes “Easy” even mellower. And with Rascal Flatts, it was about bringing even more energy to “Dancing on the Ceiling.” So he invited them to play the track, not just cut the vocal. “I don’t know if you can even sum it up,” Rascal Flatts lead singer Gary LeVox said. “He’s just a musical icon and a legend. And to be able to call him friend now and to watch him work in the studio, the whole time you’re watching him work with [producer] Dann Huff and throwing out ideas and all this, you can’t help but picture ‘We Are The World’ while it’s going down.” Richie is so pleased with the success, he’s planning a second volume with stars that missed out the first time around. And he’s so energized he’s thinking about recording new material. In Nashville, it turns out, Richie found something he thought he’d lost. “I’m probably as comfortable in my own space and in my own skin in the music world as I’ve been in 15 or 20 years,” Richie said, “because here, they specialize in melody here. Singers, melody, stylists. Not acrobatics.” AP writer Caitlin R. King in Nashville contributed to this report. Four years ago, Margaret Roach picked up two nearly identical Paphiopedilum orchids at her local garden center. Roach, an accomplished garden writer (awaytogarden.com) and a former top editor at Martha Stewart Living, kept one of the orchids for herself, repotting, watering, situating and feeding it according to all the accepted practices. It bloomed, happily, for about six weeks and never sported another flower. Roach gave the other to her sister, an occasional gardener, who plopped her plant near her desk in its original, too-small container and gave it minimal care. During the first year, Roach’s sister didn’t even bother with plant food. The orchid rewarded her with four years of nearly continuous blooms. “She’ll call me and say, ‘Oh, I just got another [flower] spike on my orchid. How’s yours doing?’ ” Roach says, laughing. Roach, a big fan of the houseplant-as-gift, points McClatchy Newspapers Paphiopedilum petunia, also known as the slipper orchid, can flower for two to three months. out that potted plants are a great value compared with cut flowers and a source of lasting and unpredictable pleasures, both horticultural and humorous. But she also cautions that there’s a right way and a wrong way to give the gift of (plant) life. “A houseplant shouldn’t be an imposition,” she says. That means no 5-foot-high palms, please. Just as you don’t want to be the guest who shows up at Thanksgiving with a casserole that requires major oven space, you don’t want to be the one who shows up with a plant that requires elaborate care and feeding. “It’s partly what you choose, and what, as they say in Olympic diving, the degree of difficulty is. You don’t want to give anything with a high degree of difficulty,” Roach says. Also critical is how you present the gift. If your approach is, “Here’s your plant and here’s what it takes to keep it alive,” the recipient may feel burdened. Roach prefers a lighter touch: “I loved this, and it’s going to last longer than cut flowers. You can toss it like you would with cut flowers or you can give to someone else.” If she knows the recipient well enough, she’ll add that potted plants are a great value. Cut flowers might cost $20 and last only three to five days. A Paphiopedilum orchid might cost $25 and, if you buy it when the first blooms are just opening, it can flower for two to three months. The worst-case scenario when you give a reasonably sized, low-maintenance plant is that it ends up in the garbage when it stops blooming. The best case is that the plant and the human hit it off. “That [darn] orchid,” Roach says of her sister’s perennially blooming plant. “I don’t think she expected it to do well. She was very anxious at first because she hadn’t had an orchid before, and she ended up just having the knack. Apparently, however she treated it, she just treated it right.” ... timesfreepress.com . • • • Tuesday, April 3, 2012 • E5 Breaking News: [email protected] PBS recalls a massive project and its critics Don’t hold your breath History is never really water under the bridge.

Breaking News: 423-757-News BESTBETS ‘Scandal’ breathes new life into familiar template on ABC By David Wiegand c. San Francisco Chronicle SAN FRANCISCO — It’s a good thing that TV actors don’t get paid by the word: If they did, the cast of Shonda Rhimes’ new thriller/nighttime soap would probably bust ABC’s budget. The overcaffeinated show, premiering Thursday night, stars Kerry Washington as the ultimate DC “fixer,” Olivia Pope. Before setting up her own firm, Pope was communications WATCH IT director in the White ■ “Scandal” House, curdebuts at rently occu10 p.m. pied by Thursday President on ABC. Fitzgerald Grant (Tony Goldwyn). Olivia is a fast-talking, fast-deciding crusader, who often gets tripped up when she finds her clients on the wrong side of her strict moral code. She still has ties to the White House and the president’s closest adviser, Cyrus Beene (Jeff Perry). In Thursday’s premiere, we meet Quinn Perkins (Katie Lowes), a new member of the team, which also includes sexy, commitment-phobic Stephen Finch (Henry Ian Cusick), suave lawyer Harrison Wright (Columbus Short), overemotional Abby Whelan (Darby Stanchfield) and nerdy Huck (Guillermo Diaz). Rhimes and her creative staff pick germs of real-life incidents and grow them like laboratory experiments until they take on lives of their own. Accordingly, in the first episode, Olivia is hired by the White House to handle a former intern AP File Photo Mimi Kennedy plays the grandmotherly DC madam Sharon Marquette on ABC’s “Scandal.” named Amanda Tanner (Lisa Weil), who says she and the president had an affair. No cigars are involved, but you know where this comes from. Olivia often tells us how she makes decisions by what her gut tells her, which may have something to do with why those decisions may seem right at the start but sometimes prompt her to change course. As the Tanner story line continues through at least the first few episodes, the series also presents new cases for Olivia’s team. Next week, grandmotherly DC madam Sharon Marquette (Mimi Kennedy) needs Olivia’s help to keep her list of highpowered clients a secret. All well and good until the name of a Supreme Court nominee shows up on that list. Things get even more complicated when the guy says he’s innocent. Is he? And in the third episode, a wealthy businesswoman, played by Jo Beth Williams, needs Olivia’s help to prove her spoiled frat-boy son didn’t rape a young woman. The resolution of this particular case is completely incredible, but pay that no mind. The situations of each episode aren’t all that inventive, on the surface, but become more interesting as they reveal themselves to either mirror aspects of Olivia’s life, or to be in conflict with her own sense of right and wrong. The dialogue is snappy and so fast-paced, it makes an Aaron Sorkin script seem like a memorial entry in the Congressional Record. In addition to its pace, though, the writing is often clever. There’s a great moment where Beene is grilling Grant about the alleged affair and the president is fine-tuning his response too much. “Don’t Clinton me with words,” Beene snaps. Nice. There’s a lot of Rhimes’ “Grey’s Anatomy” formula at work here, and that’s not a bad thing. To enjoy the show, though, you really have to suspend disbelief at many points, just as you do with “Grey’s.” There are moments when the frenetic drive for cleverness prompts some rather silly decisions about plot points. To wit: The first lady is worried that Grant isn’t getting enough sleep so she first allows him to sleep in and miss a teleconference on world hunger that was so important that “Mandela got out of bed” for it, and then knowingly invites his actual former mistress to a White House state dinner because she thinks it will help him sleep. The only thing about all of this that’s less believable is President Grant’s reaction: He’s a dithering moron. Yes, we’ve probably elected idi- Scenes ■ PATTEN PERFORMANCE Turtle Island Quartet performs at 7:30 p.m. today in the Roland Hayes Concert Hall in the UTC Fine Arts Center, corner of Vine and Palmetto streets.

But, really, wouldn’t Beene be pounding at the door if the president decided to sleep in and miss a phone chat with Nelson Mandela? “Scandal” actually makes good use of the team approach to problem-solving, despite the fact that it’s one of the most overused templates in television, going back to the days of the original “Mission: Impossible” and continuing with tiresome regularity right up to today, with shows like “Breaking In,” “Leverage,” “Alcatraz” and many more. Its appeal derives from the chance to find gaggles of secondary characters who may not only have special skills, but who can individually appeal to various segments of the audience. Despite its overuse, the template can work fine as long as the characters are interesting and if there’s something else about the show to hook viewers. In this case, that would be the cast members themselves, beginning with Washington, who could charm us if she were selling Tupperware. ■ The verdict: three stars out of five. Coming soon: Dreamliner flights By Ellen Creager Detroit Free Press Most planes pressurize to 8,000 feet above sea level. That can stress the body, causing headaches and dizziness for some passengers. If you’ve ever felt queasy or faint on a long flight, you know what we’re talking about. The new Boeing 787 Dreamliner pressurizes to a maximum of 6,000 feet, getting 8 percent more oxygen to the cabin, plus it has slightly more humidity and a new gas filtration system to remove odors and irritants. The composite material of the jet allows the pressurization to the lower altitude. This summer, United will be the first U.S.-based airline to get the Dreamliner.

Hannah Claire has participated in the competition annually for the last three years. Two years ago, she won the concerto and primary composer categories for the first time. This year was Gracyn’s second time competing and the first time she has won. Participating in the TFMC competition required the girls to secure a superior rating, the highest possible, at a local competition in February. Even with all their hard work preparing for the event, however, their nerves nearly got the better of them. “It’s very quiet. Nobody says anything,” Hannah Claire said of her March performance. “Nobody claps between songs. The silence is weird.” Winning made all the pressure worth it. “I like the feeling of accomplishment after it,” she continued. “It feels like a weight is lifted off your shoulders.” Lindsay said the Davis girls stand out from other young pianists in that their approach to the instrument is so fluid. Instead of sitting rigidly at the bench and playing mechanically, they flow with the music, which helps convey more emotion. Q A What are the advantages of working with children? Kids listen. They actually listen to you. I’ve worked with adult actors as well as kid actors, and I think it’s easier to direct kids because they’re used to being directed in their everyday lives. Adults don’t take direction as well as children do. Kids are used to being told what to do and when to do it. They want to please you. Q A Q A Do the kids do behind-the-scenes work? Absolutely. I’m the only adult, so I have kids who are stage managers. I have a senior in high school who is training two of the younger kids to be stage managers. They work backstage. They work the lights, the sound. They come in and help put the sets together. Roberts • Continued from Page E1 on that movement was a stirring account of a large number of people who would not be denied. It was that kind of moral certainty that finally turned the tide and gained enough support among the people and their elected representatives to create positive change.

It seems like such a waste of good protest energy to throw up tents and despoil the beautiful courthouse lawn when you are uncertain about your cause and cannot activate and organize the moral energy to send a clear message. It is a symptom of the times. We are unhappy but unable to pinpoint what our real problems are. Gas prices are killing us. Congress has been purchased by big contributors and is unresponsive to anyone but the richest among us. The quality of life for the masses has been sinking for a long time and will continue to plummet until we can activate the moral indignation of the people and channel it into something more substantial than tents on courthouse lawns. Those kind of “occupy” protests will do nothing but lose the support of the people we must have to make changes for the better. For starters, get indignant that your government has been bought.
