School board approves purchase
Counselor: ‘People
of flight simulator for CTE class
Combating drug abuse in county
By Ashley Rader
STAR Staff
acarden@starhq.com
The Elizabethton Board of Education approved the purchase of a
new flight simulator for the aviation technology class at Elizabethton High School that will be the
only one of its kind in the United
States.
The simulator is being purchased from Redbird Flight
Simulations in Austin, Texas for
$86,484.99. Director of Schools Ed
Alexander explained the funds being used were reserve BEP funds
and were restricted which means
they could not be used for teacher
salaries or to maintain any positions.
“This will be a shot in the arm
for the CTE (career technical education) classes,” Alexander said.
Aviation instructor Dan Mills
explained the unit would have six
screens with a 200 degree wraparound that would provide a more
realistic image as if in a cockpit. A
variety of training exercises could
be completed on the simulator.
These tasks can also be recorded
and saved to be played back for
students to show how they could
improve.
He said he would use the simulator as a reward for students who
have completed all their classwork
and have met all other expectations. He added he would also like
to see the students have to qualify
for the aviation classes through
measures such as attendance, effort and participation at school.
Mills said the simulator could
be a revenue generator by offering training classes and refresher
courses to members of the public
with appropriate knowledge. He
said he would also like to start a
weekend training course.
He believes the money made
from outside endeavors would
more than cover the cost of the
maintenance contract that would
start in the second year of the operation of the simulator. The contract lists a maintenance charge of
$7 per hour of flight time.
Mills said this contract would
be good to have in the long run
because the company would overnight ship any necessary replacement parts and could fix any
software issues via the Internet if
necessary.

In part four of the Elizabethton
STAR’s series on drug abuse and addiction in Northeast Tennessee and
Carter County, a local drug addiction specialist discusses the definition of drug addiction, the growing
problem of opiate and methamphetamine abuse and the difficulty
in treating addiction.
Dr. Randall Jessee is a psychologist and the Senior Vice President of
Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation
with Frontier Health. Jessee has been
working in the field of addiction for
over 30 years. He said alcoholism
and addiction are not a new problem. He said drug abuse statistics
will “ebb and flow over time, but it
is always a consistent problem in
American society.”
Jessee said most people do not
have a good understanding of drug
addiction. He added far too many
people believe addiction comes
down to a lack of willpower or
some type of moral failing. “We’ve
learned through years of scientific
research that drug addiction is a
disease, just like cancer or heart disease,” he said.

93-year-old man robbed
and beaten in his RM home
BY Robert Sorrell
STAR STAFF
rsorrell@starhq.com
Investigators with the Carter County Sheriff’s Department continue to search for a suspect who entered a 93-year-old Roan Mountain
man’s home, beat him and took a large sum of money.
Deputy Tracie Phipps reported that on Wednesday at 11:47 a.m.,
an unidentified white male knocked on the door at 7959 Highway
19E in Roan Mountain and asked for a drink of water. Johnson allowed the man to enter at which time the suspect allegedly pushed the
elderly man down.
The suspect then reportedly struck Johnson in the head several
times. Johnson begged the man not to kill him at which time the
suspect stopped and removed the victim’s wallet from his front pants
pocket. Approximately $20,000 was taken from the wallet.
The suspect then locked Johnson in his house using a padlock on
the side door. Phipps said that when officers arrived on scene she observed marks on Johnson’s head and he was bleeding from his nose.
Johnson stated that the male parked a small black vehicle in his
driveway. A friend of Johnson said she saw a small vehicle in the driveway but only thought it was a dark color.
The suspect was identified by Johnson as being a medium built
white male with short dark hair. He appeared to be in his 40s, Johnson
told Phipps.
Capt. Tom Smith said investigators went to the robbery scene
and spoke to witnesses regarding possible vehicles and suspects. “We
checked on several leads,” Smith said.
The robbery investigation led officers to several locations in the
Buck Mountain community of Carter County. Smith said he also went
into Avery County, N.C., to speak to an individual. He added that suspects have been identified and interviews are continuing.
The lead investigator in the robbery case is Jan Black of the Carter
County Sheriff’s Department.

Phillippi food pantry ministering to needs of community
By Ashley Rader
STAR Staff
acarden@starhq.com
Phillippi Missionary Baptist Church not only
ministers to the spiritual needs of the community
but to the physical needs as well through their Food
Pantry.
The church has had the pantry for at least 18
years. Associate Minister and Director of the Food Pantry Sonya Price said the food pantry was thought of
by Deacon Hugh Collie.
“It was his vision as a way to help people in
the community,” Price said. “It has been standing
ever since.”
The church partners with Second Harvest Food
Bank to provide the food items that are distributed
to clients from the community. The food pantry
provides a monthly food box filled with items such
as canned vegetables, beans, rice, pasta and snack
cakes. They also receive personal hygiene items
once a month such as shampoo, conditioner, body
wash and other similar items. They also offer a weekly food bag with perishable items like fresh produce,
bread, milk and eggs.
The weekly food bag was added to the pantry close to nine months ago and is increasingly
popular with the clients who receive food from the
pantry. These items are distributed each Wednesday at 11 a.m.
Price said there is frequently a line around the
block of people waiting for these items. Pantry volunteers assemble 60 bags of fresh food to be distributed and usually have extra items to make another
20 bags if needed. Price noted the bags are wiped
out in 15 minutes after the line is opened.
The pantry is seeing more and more people seeking aid since they started offering the weekly food
bags. Price also noted the economy has brought in
more people as well. The pantry seen such a large increase in clients they had to institute a new registration system to keep track of how often the clients visit
the pantry.
“It used to be we could recognize everybody that
came in,” Price said. “Now we see so many new
faces.”
Anyone is welcome to receive assistance from the
food pantry. All they need is a picture ID and to answer some questions regarding the financial aspects
of their household. Price explained that some of the
items they receive from Second Harvest are purchased
using United States Department of Agriculture
(USDA) funding and it is a government requirement to keep track of that information.
The pantry also offers a sick and shut-in program
for residents who are not able to come out to the
pantry to pick up their items. Price said there are
18 residents that are a part of the program and
she visits them once a month to make deliveries.
“I visit with them,” she said. “We sit and talk

and pray. I know they are appreciative and thankful for the
food but I think they like the company when we come to visit.”
The Phillippi Baptist Church
Food Pantry is located in the parsonage at 200 Horace Leftwich
Lane. The operating hours are
Wednesdays from 10 a.m. to 12
p.m. and from 6 p.m. to 6:45 p.m.

Animal shelter project moves forward, bidding set for Sept. 28
By Ashley Rader
STAR Staff
acarden@starhq.com
Work on the new Elizabethton Carter County Animal Shelter is getting closer to having a
start date as progress has been
made in preparations for the
new facility.
Architect Joey White told the
Animal Shelter Building Com-
mittee he was working to finalize the specifications for the bids
and hoped to have them ready
for contractors who would be
bidding on the project by Sept.
28. He said he was working to
separate the different aspects of
the project that would be donated or supplied by the inmate
work camps. He requested that
leaders in the project meet with
him to make sure everything
that was needed would be included in the specifications.
During the bid process there
will be an approximate one week
pre-bid period where contractors
can visit the site and can ask
any questions they have about
the project. When the request
for bids is made the contractors
will have about three weeks to
submit their responses before
the bids will be opened.
City Manager Fred Edens
updated the building committee that the memorandum of
understanding between the city
and the county had been approved during the City Council
meeting last week. A copy of the
memo has been forwarded to
County Mayor Leon Humphrey
and the County Commission will
be voting on it in their meeting
Monday at 10 a.m.
Humphrey said he had hoped
the bylaws for the board that will
govern the new shelter would
have been ready for this month’s
commission meeting as well but
they had been delayed and will
not be ready until the October
meeting. Once the by-laws are
approved by the commission,
the board for the shelter can be
formed and the committee can
advertise to hire the new director
of the shelter.
Elizabethton’s Director of
Planning and Development David Ornduff said he has a likely
prospect for the project manager
for the new shelter and expected
to hear something from them
by the end of the week. He noted
that if they were unable to do
it he knew of other possibilities
they could contact.
John Bland gave the committee an update on the Parrots
and Tails III that was held at
the end of August. The fundraiser made $3,688.86 for the
new shelter which was below the
goal of $10,000. Bland said he
knew they would be competing
with the race at Bristol but he
did not account for the Appalachian Fair which held family
day on the same day as Parrots
and Tails.
He said they would be looking at changing some things
next year but that there would
be a new director and board to
work with on those decisions.
“I think the time of year it is
held is good,” Bland said. “We
may need to tweak the actual
date. For people who just want
to come and have a good time
$20 a ticket is too much so we
may look at lowering that to
$10.”
He added that planning for
next year’s Parrots and Tails
was almost complete. All of
the bands are already lined up
and they are working on adding more activities for children
since those were a big hit at this
year’s event.
Chairman Mike Barnett
thanked the members of the
committee and those that attend committee meetings regularly for taking part in Parrots

and Tails III. He said it was the
highest turnout from that group
that he had seen at any of the
Parrots and Tails events.
The committee heard from
Danika Nadzan, director of East
Tennessee Spay and Neuter. She
said she had added a van and
transport route to reach families in Roan Mountain. The van
has been wrapped to match the
ETSN bus. She noted she transported her 901st pet for spay or
neuter surgery this week. There
will also be an announcement
later in the week concerning
low-cost veterinary clinics for
the area.
The committee recognized
Ornduff, who will be retiring as
Director of Planning and Development for the city at the end
of the month. Ornduff said he
would continue to serve on the
shelter building committee after
his retirement.
“Thanks for your time and
effort that you have put into
this,” Barnett said to Ornduff.
“It has not gone unnoticed. We
consider you a friend.”
The committee also discussed
concerns over the break in and
theft of a dog from the animal
shelter. Community members
asked if this was a frequent occurrence and what could be
done to prevent it from happening in the future. Options that
may be considered are improved
fencing around the outdoor dog
kennels and security cameras.

Milligan fair to showcase
service opportunities Sept. 21
Milligan College will host a volunteer fair for students and surrounding communities on Wednesday, Sept. 21, from 10:30 a.m. to 2
p.m. in the second floor lobby of Derthick Hall.
This year’s fair will include 17 local agencies such as Coalition for
Kids, Boys and Girls Club, Good Samaritan, Wellington Place, Johnson City Medical Center and Second Harvest Food Bank. Each agency
will host individual tables with information about the organization,
its role in the community and what needs it has for volunteers.
The volunteer fair offers students and the public the opportunity to
meet with individuals from these agencies and discover the numerous
ways to get involved and make a difference in the community. In the
past, the volunteer fair has been well received, and the positive feedback keeps the same agencies coming back each year.
“We feel that the volunteer fair is important because it gives us a
chance to connect the needs of the community with the talents and
interests of Milligan students,” said Allison Nauman, who coordinates
Milligan’s LINC (Linking Individuals to the Needs of the Community.
“We hope students will enjoy the experience of service and get plugged
into places they care about.”
In addition, organizers hope the public will take advantage of the
opportunity to learn more about organizations that appreciate and
need volunteer support.
“Milligan is proud of the reputation it has earned in the community for service and we hope that by extending the invitation to the local
community, we can continue to build on that reputation and encourage others to establish this tradition of service in their own lives,” said
Beth Anderson, director of Milligan’s Institute for Servant Leadership.
For more information please contact Beth Anderson at 461-8316
or Allison Nauman at 461-8488. To learn more about Milligan, visit

Grandfather Mountain hosts 41st Annual Girl Scout Day
GRANDFATHER MOUNTAIN,
N.C. — Grandfather Mountain
welcomes Girl Scouts back to the
Mountain for a day filled with
opportunities to hone their wilderness skills, play games and
learn more about nature. On
September 17 from 9:30 a.m. to
4 p.m., Scouts can expand their
nature know-how through programs that cover topics such as
backpacking, orienteering, NASA
climate science, hawk watching
and Monarch butterflies. All Girl
Scouts and their leaders will be
admitted free of charge with proof
of membership.
Grandfather Mountain first
adopted the Girl Scouts in 1971,
beginning a long-standing tradition of a special day in September
where girls would be invited to
learn more about nature and the
Blue Ridge Mountains in a handson way. The Scouts returned the
favor by adopting Grandfather’s
late mascot, Mildred the Bear, as
an honorary Girl Scout and presenting her with a series of pins
to mark her many years with the
organization.
“Scouts will love these programs,” said Chief Naturalist
Katie Gray. “They have been
designed to fulfill badge requirements and provide them with all
the knowledge necessary to have a
fun and exciting experience in the
outdoors.”
The day begins at 9:30 a.m.
with Backpacking 101. Scouts will
learn proper packing, gear and
footwear for any hiking excursion. An Interpretive Ranger will
then lead a hike where different
techniques will be discussed. Participants meet at the Black Rock
Trailhead.
An orienteering class will take
place at the Woods Walk at 10
a.m. and 1:30 p.m. This is a
hands-on workshop designed to
demonstrate how to find your
way in the woods with a compass
and map. The girls learn to orient a compass, determine stride
and distance and put their new
skill to the test locating flags hidden in the woods. The class fulfills requirements for the “Finding Your Way” badge. Space is
limited to 20 scouts ages 10 and
up. Please call the Naturalist
Department for reservations and
details at 828-733-4326.
At 11 a.m., a NASA Climate
Science workshop will take place
at the Butterfly Garden in front
of the Fudge Shop. Scouts collect
data using state-of-the-art equipment that will contribute to the
understanding of earth systems
and climate change. This data is
analyzed by experts of the field.
Habitat and Naturalist staff
will be available from 1 to 3 p.m.
in the Environmental Habitats to
answer questions and share fun
facts about the animals that call
Grandfather Mountain home.
There may even be a few surprise
guests!
At 3:30 p.m. Scouts meet at
Linville Peak across the Swinging Bridge to participate in a
hawk watch. This program provides information about raptors
and the opportunity to catch a
glimpse of one of these migrat-
ing birds of prey.
Also at 3:30 p.m., a Monarch
Butterfly Program will take place
in front of the Nature Museum.
Naturalists will have caterpillars,
chrysalises and butterflies to help
illustrate the natural history, migration and life cycle of this special animal.
Along with the many programs that the Naturalist Department will be hosting on Girl Scout
Day, Grandfather’s trails will be
available to the Scouts who wish
to plan an excursion further into
the backcountry. The Nature Museum, picnic areas and the Mile
High Swinging Bridge will also be
open.
Admission is free to Scouts and
troop leaders who present their
Girl Scout membership card. Parents and families traveling with
their Scouts will receive a special
discount admission upon request.

Show of appreciation in memory of 9/11
Employees of Cash Express in Elizabethton delivered a cake to the Elizabethton Fire Department on Sycamore Street on Sept. 10
prior to the 10th anniversary of 9/11. They brought the cake to the fire department to honor firefighters who work daily to protect
their communities. Every year since that tragic day in September of 2001, Cash Express stores in Kentucky and Tennessee have delivered cakes to first responders — firefighters, police officers and emergency medical service technicians — to show appreciation with a
simple yet thoughtful gesture. Pictured are Cash Express employees Ashley Bentley and Linda Shupe presenting a cake to Elizabethton
Mayor Curt Alexander and Elizabethton firefighters Steve Murray, Jerry Smith, Todd Montgomery and Brian Stevens. They also delivered cakes to the volunteer fire departments in Central, Hampton, Stoney Creek and Watauga as well as Carter County Dispatch,
Emergency Management Agency, Carter County Rescue Squad, Carter County Sheriff’s Office, Elizabethton Police Department and
the Office of Investigation.
Editorial
Opinion
Show compassion,
kindness toward
divorced friend
Beating poverty back
Here’s a question that sort of answers itself: Does anyone think that
the U.S. poverty rate — which last year hit the highest level since 1993,
spurred by recession-related job losses — could have seen any significant
improvement by now, in the ninth month of 2011?
Nope, we didn’t think so. On the strength of the numbers, there is a poverty crisis in this country. Poverty translates into suffering. That certainly
adds another measure of urgency to President Obama’s attempt to overcome the recession’s stubborn aftereffects and get people back to work.
Jobs mean paychecks that in turn can mean the difference between
going hungry, having a decent place to stay, keeping the lights on and the
water flowing. When paychecks dry up, expenses get cut to the bone — but
it’s often not enough to provide even minimal food, clothing, shelter.
Would that the kindness of strangers could be stretched far enough so
that nobody truly had to go without essentials. Sadly, it can’t.
The U.S. Census Bureau reports that in 2010, the poverty rate stood at
15.1 percent. It had not been that high in 17 years, and it was up a full
percentage point from the rate in 2009.
That signals millions of Americans who either can’t find a job at all, or
who try to scrape by working at low-paying, part-time jobs with no benefits
and no future. It signals many children who hardly have to be told to eat
their beans when beans are all they have on their plates. In raw numbers,
46.2 million people in this country were counted as poor last year. The
Census Bureau said that was the most people with incomes below the poverty line in the entire 52 years it has been publishing that statistic.
Obama’s jobs and recovery plan is all about putting more money in
folks’ pockets — working folks. That’s what’s needed to get the country’s
economic gears turning again — and to lower the poverty rate, meaning Editor:

School consolidation, but not by current commission
I do agree that there are too many schools in
Carter County and something needs to be done.
With all the improvements to highways and transportation, consolidation is the answer to our school
problem, but this can’t happen with the current
commission. It’s all about them, not the county.

Dear Mrs.
E.J.: A divorce
is often like a
death, and if
your neighbor
Billy
is like most peoGraham
ple in her situation she’s grievMY
ing the death of
her marriage ANSWER
— even if she
doesn’t realize it. And sometimes
the best thing we can do when
someone is grieving is simply to
let them know we care, and to keep
quiet and listen to them if they
choose to talk.
In other words, treat your neighbor the way you’d want to be treated
in her situation. If you were in her
shoes, you’d probably feel hurt (or
even angry) if people ignored you
or acted as if nothing had happened. And yet this often happens
when someone experiences a deep
personal tragedy such as a divorce
— often people are embarrassed
and don’t know what to say.
Tell her you know she’s going
through a rough time and you
want to be her friend. Even if she
seems uninterested at first, keep
reaching out to her (without being
a pest). Realize that the time may
come when she will reach out to
you. The Bible says, “As God’s chosen people ... clothe yourselves with
compassion, kindness, humility,
gentleness and patience” (Colossians 3:12).
Most of all, pray for her, and
as you have opportunity encourage her to turn to Christ. God
loves her, and even when we pass
through some of life’s hardest
places, God’s peace and hope can
be ours. It’s true for her — and
it’s true for you.

Immanuel Baptist Church
Immanuel Baptist Church, located at
205 Hunter Ave., grew out of a Sunday
afternoon Sunday School class conducted
by Elizabethton First Baptist Church in
the old Kenmore Inn on West G Street.
Later a mission church was started, and
in July 1936, Immanuel Baptist Church
was constituted with 40 charter members.
Originally, the church was known as West
Side Baptist Church, with the name changed
to Immanuel in 1939. John L. Curtis served
as the first pastor. The present building
was constructed in 1940 with an education department and fellowship hall added
later. The congregation meets at 9:45 a.m.
on Sunday in GROW groups with morning
worship at 11 a.m. Sunday evening services
are at 6 p.m. and Wednesday services are
at 6:30 p.m.

The Pearce Chapel Free Will

75th anniversary on Sunday,
Sept. 18, with special services.

worship at 11 a.m., after which

The history of the church
notes that in 1930 there was no
church in the small community
of Robertstown, located on the
Gap Creek Road in Hampton.
A few people led by Rev. Floyd
Cole began meeting in an old
brick house, which stood on the
present home site of Russell and
the late Gail Hodges. Later, Rev.
Taft Swinger later started a brush
arbor across the road from the
present church. The congregation then moved to an old house
owned by Jerd Richardson.
The church history records
that Rev. Garrett Hopson had a
dream that “he planted a little
peach tree beside the road and

Harvey White, with New Covenant
it grew into a huge tree with the
prettiest fruit.” On Feb. 1, 1936,
Elijah and Julia Pearce donated
that spot of ground for the building of a church. The community
came together and everyone donated materials and labor. Joke
West gave timber and Dave Simerly gave windows. Old records
reveal how every penny was spent,
even to the nails in the building;
a broom was 20 cents. Some gave
only 5 cents, but all their efforts
together built a church that still
stands today, 75 years later.
In 1936 the attendance was
about 40. The collection was 10
cents and the treasury consisted
of about $3. In the 1950s, Wednesday night attendance was about
10.
“Perhaps, this is the fruit in the
peach tree dream!” one member
wrote
Some of the founding families
of the Pearce Chapel Free Will Baptist Church were: Pearce, Pierce,
Taylor, Honeycutt, Hughes, Nave,
Smith, Aldridge, Chesser, Johnson,
Roberts, Vaughn, Vines, Bowers,
Sheets, West, Hampton, Campbell, Crabtree, Andrews, Ramsey,
Carter, Blevins, Oliver, Adams and
Norris.
Many of the families were
uprooted when the Watauga
Lake was built, and moved to
the Robertstown community and
surrounding area from Carden’s
Bluff, Fish Springs and even parts
of North Carolina. Pearce Chapel
became a lighthouse in a dark
world for these people, who had
to sell their homes and move
elsewhere.
From the beginning, the
church was a stronghold for the
youth. Older members took the
young people under their wing
and taught them how to worship
the true way. They trained and
encouraged the youth to conduct
the services. At first there were
no full-time pastors. Preachers
would come from North Carolina and the surrounding area
once a month for services. The
services would usually be on
Saturday night, Sunday morning and Sunday night. The rest
of the time the church deacons
and their wives would lead the
services, preparing the youth for
their future in the church and
the world.
A member wrote: “The
church’s foundation was to honor and worship God Almighty
Pearce Chapel Free Will Baptist Church
and Jesus Christ, our Savior. The
church was built through unity
and a desire to help mankind.
The outreach of this church has
been tremendous. The Word of
God and the Gospel of Jesus Christ
has blessed, saved and comforted
many people. The elders trained
and prepared its youth to continue the work of God. The church
has produced preachers, teachers, nurses and other career persons that are blessed in service to
others. The early members’ daily
prayers and letters supported
the soldiers and college students
while they were away from home,
church and families.”
Pearce Chapel has always
supported the Free Will Baptist
Children’s Home and foreign
missions. This past summer the
youth of the church did a mission trip to Jamaica. The one
common threat that holds the
church together is caring for one
another. Known as the “Church
That Cares,” it is a theme that
started 75 years ago and has continued to this day. A man cared
enough to donate the land so
that the community could have
a church. Many members and
families have come and gone
through the years, however,
several members of the original
families continue to worship and
serve God at the small country
church, located by the side of the
road.
A number of preachers have
served the church, some more
than once. Pearce Chapel has always had talented musicians and
spirit-filled teachers.
The public is invited to join
the congregation as it celebrates
its 75th anniversary Sunday.
“The Women of Genesis.” While
the book of Genesis is primarily
about the Patriarchs, the women
of Genesis were very much involved
with the men of Genesis. They are
the foundational stories of faith
and are fun. “We will look for what
the stories meant when they were
first told and what they mean to us
today,” said Pastor Shuck.
The study will begin shortly before 7 p.m. and those attending are

The sermon Sunday morning
at First United Methodist Church
is entitled “It’s Five O’Clock Somewhere” based on Matthew 20: 1-16.
The sermon spells out that 5 o’clock
is an hour of desperation and need
for some people who have waited
all day for employment. It is also
the hour of mercy and kindness
of a landowner who hired them
with generous wages. “The Bible
reminds us that when it comes to
desperation and need, it is always
five o’clock somewhere, and wherever it is, there is God’s love and
compassion,” wrote Rev. Raymond
Amos, pastor.
The service will begin at 10 a.m.
followed by a brief time of fellowship, after which Sunday School
will begin at 11:20 a.m. The Men’s
Prayer Group will meet at 9 a.m. in
Room 108, and the Sunday Evening Bible Study will meet at 6 p.m.

Alta Cucina offers menu of creative Italian dishes
I visited Alta Cucina in Johnson City with a group of friends
prior to enjoying the motion picture, The Help, on a recent weekend evening.
Alta Cucina, a charming
Italian eatery, has been serving
some fine Italian meals since
first opening its doors back in
1996. The restaurant offers intimate surroundings that encourage conversation. Framed art by
local artists decorate the restaurant’s walls, which are covered
by gold-painted wallpaper. The
tables and booths are covered
with deep purple cloths and candle votives offer soft illumination
during evening dining.
After escorting my guests and
me to a table, a server delivered
freshly baked focaccia bread and
two saucers of olive oil mixed
with a medley of garlic and fresh
herbs such as basil, parsley, red
pepper flakes and rosemary. The
warm bread and the zesty dipping sauce provided something
fragrant and tasty to enjoy while
we studied the menu’s appetizer
selections.
The tempting meal-starters
featured on the menu include
Eggplant Mousse, Calamari, Crab
Cakes, Shrimp Cocktail, Stuffed
Portabella Mushroom and Fresh
Mozzarella. The four members of
my dining party decided to share
an order of the Calamari, which
was served on a platter lined by
a large leaf of Swiss chard and
accompanied by a dish of marinara sauce. The lightly breaded
rings of calamari were fried to a
golden-brown crispness and went
well with the chunky, slightly
sweet marinara sauce. The serving was also perfect for whetting
the appetites of four diners.
After enjoying the Calamari,
we turned our attention to the
selection of entrees. Main course
offerings available at Alta Cucina
include several pasta dishes as
well as dinner specialties. Pasta
selections include Sicilian Spaghetti, Pesto Penne, Meat Lasagna, Ravioli and Manicotti.
Some of the dinner specialties offered are classics such as Chicken
Marsala, Veal Parmesan, Chicken
Cacciatore and an eight-ounce
Filet Mignon.
I considered Sicilian Spaghetti, Eggplant Parmesan, Ahi
Tuna and Blackened Tilapia
before I decided on the Chicken
Parmigan.
The other members of my dining party ordered Veal Parmesan,
Fettuccini Alfredo with Grilled
Shrimp, and Chicken Piccata.
I got to sample some of the
Chicken Piccata, which features
a delightful tangy sauce over a
chicken breast sautéed in olive
oil and white wine with garlic,
capers, lemon, pecorino cheese
and mushrooms. This dish is
served over a bed of pasta.
Entrees are served with a
choice of soup, house salad or
caesar salad. Tomato Bisque was
the Soup Du Jour.
I chose to pair my main
course with the Spinach Salad,
which consisted of fresh organic
baby spinach leaves mixed with
cranberries, walnuts and plenty
of feta cheese, all tossed with
a homemade raspberry vinaigrette.
The other members of my
dining party elected to include
a house salad and bowls of the
soup of the day, Tomato Bisque,
with their entrees. The House
Salad consisted of mixed greens,
tomato wedges, cucumbers, red
onions, kalamata olives, roasted
red bell pepper strips and a cube
of mild cheese served with a
choice of salad dressing.
I was provided a spoonful of
the rich, savory Tomato Bisque,
which won my approval and that
of my dining companions who
ordered this delicious soup.
Our main courses arrived just
as we were finishing the salads
and soup.
I was pleased by the Chicken
Parmigan. This traditional dish
featured a tender breaded chicken breast covered with marinara
sauce, parmesan and melted
provolone, all served on a bed of
pasta. It was a hearty and tasty
main course.
The Fettucini Alfredo with
Grilled Shrimp, ordered by one
of my dining companions, featured an ample mound of pasta
with a thick and flavorful Alfredo sauce topped with pecorino
cheese and an array of plump,
butterfly grilled, tail-on shrimp.
He remarked, and I concurred,
that the succulent shrimp were
cooked properly, and the sauce
had excellent flavor.
In fact, no one expressed any
disappointment at all in these
delectable main courses.
After finishing our meals, we
found we had some time for dessert before leaving for the movie.
I chose a piece of Chocolate
Toffee Cake while two dining
companions chose to share a
piece of Tiramisu. They reported
that the Tiramisu was a light and
refreshing way to end the meal.
The Chocolate Toffee Cake,
on the other hand, was decadently rich. This tall slice of rich,
dark chocolate cake was covered
by chunks of crunchy toffee.
Both desserts were decorated with
a criss-cross drizzling of chocolate and vanilla syrups. I needed
some help finishing off this luscious dessert.
Both desserts provided a great
conclusion for some wonderful
meals. If you are looking for a
restaurant to provide a meal that
can impress, Alta Cucina won’t
disappoint. Let them know they
were recommended.

Dearabby
Sadness that lingers is a
symptom of depression
DEAR ABBY: I am 18 years
old and would like to know what
kinds of symptoms show that it’s
time for counseling — depression, mood swings, etc. — CONSIDERING IT IN OHIO
DEAR CONSIDERING IT:
You
have
asked
an
important
question.
Everybody
experiences
sadness
at
some point,
but sadness
that doesn’t
go away can actually be depression, a medical condition. Anyone, regardless of
age, who experiences any
FIVE of the following symptoms for two weeks or more
should discuss it with a
mental health professional:
1. Feeling of sadness and/
or irritability.
2. Loss of interest or
pleasure in activities once
enjoyed.
3. Changes in weight and
appetite.
4. Changes in sleep patterns.
5. Feeling guilty, hopeless
or worthless.
6. Inability to concentrate, remember things or
make decisions.
7. Restlessness or decreased activity noticed by
others.
8. Fatigue or loss of energy.
9. Thoughts of death or
suicide.
————
DEAR ABBY: I have a wonderful hairdresser who helps not only
me but also many of my friends
and family members. She’s the
sole support for her family and
the sweetest person you could
ever meet. The issue is her sense
of time.
There’s no problem if you’re
the first or second appointment
of the day, but after that she runs
further and further behind. Yesterday, it took my frail motherin-law 3-1/2 hours to get her
hair done because of the wait
time. I was the first appointment
at 7:30 a.m. and she didn’t make
it into the shop until 7:40. How
can I help her understand she’s
driving her customers away with-
out offending her? — CUTTING
TIME IN UTAH
DEAR CUTTING TIME:
Your hairdresser may be
good at styling hair but it
appears she’s not a very
good businesswoman. If
she’s losing customers because she manages her
schedule so poorly, tell her
why. You will be doing her
a favor. And please, before
you bring your frail mother-in-law in for another
appointment, call to find
out how late the woman is
running before letting your
mother-in-law sit for 3-1/2
hours before even seeing a
shampoo bowl.
————
DEAR ABBY: I recently bought
a small travel trailer that I use for
weekend fishing trips. My dog,
“Goldie,” accompanies me on
these short trips and sleeps with
me on the only bed in the trailer.
My wife, “Shirley,” is now
expecting to go on some of my
fishing trips with Goldie and me.
The problem is, Goldie is used to
sleeping with me, and I believe
she should have first dibs on the
bed since she was there first.
When I informed Shirley that
she’d be sleeping in the back of
the truck, she came unglued.
Now, Shirley and I are hardly
speaking. Goldie is a young Lab
pup who is my very best friend,
constant companion and never
nags. I think my wife is being
selfish and inconsiderate, but I’d
like your opinion. Am I out of
line here? — GOIN’ FISHIN’ IN
MIDLAND, TEXAS
DEAR GOIN’ FISHIN’: If
you’re expecting sympathy
from me, you’re barking up
the wrong tree. You are not
only out of line, but it appears you’re also in the doghouse. A real Texas gentleman would let Shirley and
Goldie share the bed while
HE slept in the truck, and
that’s what I’m urging you
to do.

The Emmanuel Institutes will present the seminar “LifePlan: Understanding God’s Purpose for Your Life” with Marcus Bigelow on
Thursday, Oct. 6, from 7 to 9 p.m. at the Thompson Community Center at 420 Dorothy Keister Way, Johnson City.
LifePlan is based on Living the Life You Were Meant to Live by Tom
Patterson. Most of us are in the middle of a life road trip that began
at birth and will culminate in heaven. A life plan helps us understand
where we are, how we got there, and where we are going. It seeks to
unify what is happening in all of the areas of our life.
Marcus Bigelow is a LifePlan coach. A full LifePlan experience involves 16 hours of guided process and may be arranged by Bigelow.
Registration is $20 at the door or $15 if pre-registered. Senior adults
(65 plus) are $10, students are just $5, and the spouse of a registered
participant is free.

For Saturday
September 17, 2011
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
Seek out a friend who has had
similar experiences to what
you're going through right now.
This person can provide you
with the solution to a problem
that is plaguing you.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23)
Lady Luck is with you regarding an area that has provided
you with a second source of
income. She is telling you that
it might be worthwhile to give
it your undivided attention.
Crossword Fun
By: Eugene Sheffer
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov.
22) If you go out of your way
to be warm, friendly and generous, your associates will imitate your behavior. Needless to
say, it'll be worth it.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23Dec. 21) Rewards for work
well done are likely to be far
grander than usual, not just in
the material sense, but in personal ways as well. It's imperative that you do your best.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22Jan. 19) Your popularity with
your peers is much stronger
than usual. Even those whom
you suspect dislike you are apt
to be saying nice things.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb.
19) Successful conclusions can
be achieved in several endeavors that you feel are critical
to your well-being. Give them
top priority while you are on
a roll.
PISCES (Feb. 20-March
20) You are likely to be
extremely lucky in reaching
persons whom you couldn't
get in touch with previously.
Give matters of strategic communication the attention they
deserve.
ARIES (March 21-April
19) Certain people in your field
of endeavor are looking out for
each other. One in particular
has some valuable information
to share with you that will help
to strengthen your position.
TAURUS (April 20-May
20) As long as you maintain
control over an operation in
which you're involved, you
will generate desirable results.
Think twice about delegating
matters of importance.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20)
Although something with farreaching positive effects could
develop, you're not likely to be
aware of all it can offer you.
Stay on top of matters.
CANCER (June 21-July
22) Without explanation, you
might be pleasantly received
by someone who has treated
you with indifference up until
now. Accept the results when
you get them, without resurrecting the past.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)
Lady Luck could help further
your aims if you adopt a more
positive mode of operation. Set
your sights higher than usual
and have faith in your talents
and abilities.

Flu vaccine available at local health department
Influenza, or flu, season is
right around the corner, and the
Carter County Health Department
is ready to offer flu vaccine to
area residents. Appointments for
flu vaccine are currently being
scheduled at the Carter County
Health Department. Appointments are being given Monday
through Friday from 8 a.m. to
4:30 p.m.
“It takes about two weeks to be
protected after you get the flu vac-
cine, so it’s a good idea to get the
vaccine as soon as it’s available,”
said Dr. David Kirschke, Medical
Director for the Northeast Tennessee Public Health Region. “However, we will continue to vaccinate
residents through the winter, or as
long as we have vaccine available.
The Centers for Disease Control
and Prevention recommends that
everyone 6 months of age and
older get their yearly flu vaccine as
soon as vaccines become available
in their community.”
Flu shots (and/or) FluMist
nasal spray vaccine is available
through the health department.
There will be a charge of $32
for each adult flu vaccine and a
$13.70 administrative charge for
children under 19 years of age,
but may slide to a lesser amount
according to income.
Please call the health department at 543-2521 to book your
appointment.

Huffman was in attendance throughout the threeday event. In addition to being available to speak
to superintendents between sessions, Huffman also
provided the keynote address. Dr. Ellis she was impressed by the fact that “everything he proposed we
do in our systems is backed up by data and research.
Everything.”
The new evaluation system ranks teachers on a
variety of factors. A total of 50 percent of the evaluation is qualitative, or based on observation while
35 percent of the score is growth. The remaining 15
percent is based on achievement. The scoring range
is on a level of one to five.
Ellis said administrators were initially told during
training for the testing changes that “they would not
find a teacher that will score a four or a five.” She
noted Huffman has since revised the initial predictions on how well teachers will fare during the evaluations. Huffman believes the testing scores will fall
into a traditional bell-curve, with about 40 to 50 percent of teachers scoring a three. Approximately 20-35
percent will score a four or five and the remaining
18-30 percent will score a one or two. Ellis said Huffman reported these projections make a good estimate
of the distribution of scores, but that the actual distribution during the first year may vary, which means it
could be a bit higher or a bit lower.
The new evaluation system has come under fire
from the Tennessee Education Association. Critics
argue it is unfair to use standardized student testing
scores as part of the equation to determine the teacher’s score. They contend standardized tests are a poor
evaluator of a student’s base of knowledge and their
ability to learn. The recent changes to teacher evalu-
ations, along with changes to curriculum, earned the
state a $500 million “Race to the Top” educational
grant.
Ellis said Huffman provided the reasoning for
changing the teacher evaluation process. “Teachers need to fully benefit from regular, meaningful
feedback,” she said. “This leads to improved student
outcomes.”
Beginning tomorrow, every teacher in Tennessee
will receive an email from Huffman. Ellis said the
email will provide educators with information and
insights from the education commissioner about the
evaluation process. “It will also reinforce the message
that there will be a distribution in the final scores,”
noted Ellis.
Huffman also introduced his four strategic goals
for the educational system in Tennessee. “The first
two goals are aimed at students,” Ellis noted. “The
commissioner wants to improve student access to
effective teachers and leaders. Students should also
have access to good schools. Teachers and administrators should have access to resources and best practices. And finally, teachers and administrators need
access to information and data.”
The school board also took time to honor 32
students in the Carter County School System for receiving a six on their 2011 writing assignment. Two
students, Madilyn Elliott of Hampton High School
and Allison Simerly of Cloudland High School, have
earned perfect scores each time they have taken the
writing assessments. Students are required to take
the assessment in the fifth, eighth and 11th grades.
Dr. Ellis said she is impressed with the hard work of
the students who earned the perfect scores.
Administration (SAMHSA), drug
addiction is defined as “a complex
illness characterized by intense and
uncontrollable drug craving, along
with compulsive drug seeking and
use that persist even in the face of
devastating consequences.”
Addiction specialists with SAMHSA contend even though the initial
path to using drugs is a voluntary
act, “over time, a person’s ability to
choose not to do so becomes compromised, and seeking and consuming the drug becomes compulsive.” Jessee said the disease affects
so many aspects of an addict’s life,
it is extremely difficult for healthcare
professionals to effectively treat it.
Jessee said a good comparison
can be drawn between diabetes and
addiction in terms of the chronic nature of the two diseases. “If you have
diabetes, if a patient does not follow
treatment indications, they will not
have the right progress in fighting
that disease. It will inevitably kill
them if they don’t deal with it as
instructed by a physician. The same
is true with treatment for drug and
alcohol addiction. The disease, if a
patient doesn’t follow the guidelines
from his doctor for participation in
recovery activities, will eventually
kill them.”
Jessee reported teenage experimentation continues to be a significant problem in the United States.
The newest figures indicate “the percentage rate of teenage drug use has
increased between 12 percent and 15
percent. The continued use of marijuana and alcohol lead the way. The
age of onset of drug use has also remained below the age of 15. There
is also an increase in the use rate
among the people between the ages
of 18 and 25. That’s very significant
because they have always been the
highest use group,” said Jessee. He
believes this is an important statistic
because it shows there is still a lack
of education and understanding
among young people about the consequences that experimentation can
potentially have on their lives.
Jessee said nobody who experiments with drugs does so with the
ultimate hope it will lead to abuse or
addiction in the future. “I think it’s
fair to say that young people who experiment with alcohol, marijuana,
prescription drugs or any other substance don’t do so with the intent of
creating a drug dependency. That’s
why pre-education and prevention
are so crucial,” Jessee stated.
Jessee believes prevention of drug
abuse has to begin with parents. He
said parents must be a role model
for their children, otherwise peerpressure can lead to early experimentation. According to studies on
teen drug use, those who identify
with solid values, ethics and morals
of their parents are less likely to engage in abuse of drugs.
“Parents have to be a positive
role model because experimentation is sold to teenagers throughout
Class
our society,” Jessee said. “On TV,
on the Internet, in films and many
other places, teens are told it is OK to
experiment. It is OK to self-medicate
to change your mood. In fact, drug
experimentation is essentially a riteof-passage in our culture. That’s
why the role of parents is crucially
important.”
He added even if a child experiments with drugs on a limited basis,
those who identify with their parents’
values are less likely to have it lead to
chronic use or addiction.
Jessee said modern medicine has
made numerous advances in the
science of addiction medicine. He
noted scientists have discovered once
a person becomes addicted to a substance, their brain chemistry changes. He added if a person has a genetic
predisposition to substance abuse,
there is a much greater chance
experimentation and recreational
use of drugs will lead to chronic
abuse and addiction. Jessee said the
strength of a specific substance can
also play a factor in determining
the likelihood an individual will
become dependent and, eventually,
addicted to it.
“Alcohol is a powerful drug, but
it usually takes much longer for it
to have negative consequences on
a person’s life, although you can
have a tragic event on your first
use,” he said. “But with drugs such
as OxyContin, crack cocaine or, especially, methamphetamine, they
wreak havoc on a person’s body,
their brain and their life much more
quickly than alcohol.”
As scientists make further discoveries about the anatomy of the brain
and brain chemistry, the science of
addiction is coming into a clearer
focus. Jessee stated that alcohol and
drugs like opioids are central nervous system depressants. “They are
putting your brain to sleep,” he explained. “We now know the impact
of these drugs.”
Jessee added, however, there is
a completely different impact to
the body of an amphetamine user.
He noted he has seen people come
to treatment who were addicted to
meth who looked 20 to 30 years older
than their actual age. “When people
are abusing amphetamine-based
drugs, their brain is literally dying,”
he explained. “It isn’t just being put
to sleep, as it would be with alcohol
or opioids. Methamphetamine creates a false sense of being able to do
anything. The damage meth can
do to the body is fast. It can cause
significant damage in less than two
months. If someone uses it for a
year, the body is simply devastated.
The substance being abused does
play a factor in how long it takes to
cause damage to the body.”
Over the last decade, opioids have
become the most widely abused
drug in this area. Jessee said he does
not have the specific numbers, but
he estimates three-quarters of inpatients at Frontier Health’s Magnolia
Ridge treatment facility in Johnson
City are for people who list opiates
as their primary drug-of-choice. He
said Frontier Health typically uses
inpatient treatment and intensive
outpatient therapy for opioid addicts. He reported that on an average basis, most patients at Magnolia
Ridge only stay for approximately 20
days.
“That is enough time to get a patient through the detox process and
to get a few days of group therapy,”
he added. “Occasionally, we get a
patient for 45 days, but that is the
exception to the rule. The initial
recovery process takes much longer
than a couple weeks.”
Although Jessee disagrees with
long-term maintenance of opioid
abusers with Suboxone, he does
believe it can be used as an adjunct
tool on a short-term basis, along
with traditional therapy. “If Suboxone is used for longer than three
to four months, it becomes another
dependency for the addict,” he said.
“Its use needs to be tightly controlled
by the physician and not used any
longer than what is absolutely necessary.”
Most experts in the field of addiction medicine believe there are keys
to obtaining a positive treatment
outcome for the patient. While no
single treatment regimen is appropriate for everyone, effective treatment needs to meet the needs of the
individual. Many addicts also suffer
from co-occuring mental disorders,
such as depression, anxiety and bipolar disorder. Jessee said it is possible to receive treatment for both
issues and help the addict get back
to leading a normal life.
When possible, the addict’s family should be involved in the recovery process. Jessee said drug addiction affects the other members of a
family just as much as it does the
drug user. Most experts recommend
families get involved with programs
such as Al-Anon or Celebrate Recovery, a Christian-based program
which embraces the 12-step process
initially created by the founders of
Alcoholics Anonymous.
Jessee believes one of the greatest
obstacles to addiction treatment is
the fact that many people are uncomfortable about it.
“People don’t like to talk about
addiction,” Jessee said. “They
would rather talk about diabetes.
They consider drug addiction to be
a ‘dirty disease.’ But people need to
know when you finally get someone
into treatment, things can begin to
change. We get a person in here and
we work to find the truth about their
disease. The truth is the only thing of
any value in the recovery process. All
of a sudden, they start to realize they
can’t blame anyone else for their
addiction but themselves. One they
do that, they see that they need to
stand up and be counted. Individual
responsibility is a vital part of the recovery process.”

of the old gymnasium area at East Side Elementary to
be made into three classrooms and meeting and office
space. Alexander explained the system needed to plan
ahead for the next school year when the lease would
run out on the current Early Learning Center. The old
gymnasium and stage space is now vacant after the
expansion at East Side Elementary opened.
The board denied requests from Catherine Armstrong to solicit bids for repairs to Brown-Childress
stadium and to gather drawings for additional classrooms at T.A. Dugger Junior High School. She said she
knew a lot of work needed to be done but thought they
could do the work in steps to get things going.
Both requests were denied on a 3-2 vote because the
board had already approved a five-year capital plan
and the majority felt it was the best course of action
to stick with the plan for the time being. Armstrong
and Connie Baker voted in favor of the requests while
Chairman Matt Cooter, Kim Birchfield and Rita Booher voted against the items.
The board also heard from Baker, Armstrong and
Shawntelle Horton concerning the Community Information Center.
Baker operates the Center and had been using the
city school system’s administration office to house the
different programs offered through it. However, recently she was told the Center could not continue to use the
space because of security concerns along with issues
regarding cleanup of the space.
Baker, Armstrong and Horton addressed the board
during the time for public comments and asked that
the center be allowed to continue to use the administration building. Horton worked with the program
while she was a student at East Tennessee State University.
Baker also asked for a board vote of support of the
program that would allow it to continue using the
space. She said she submitted her request in time for
it to be included in the agenda but that it was not included.
Booher said she was not comfortable with voting
on the matter since it was just brought to them at the
start of the meeting. She said she would like time to
research what other systems do concerning the use of
their administration buildings by community groups.
Birchfield agreed that he would like more time to consider the issue before voting.
Cooter said no one was questioning the merits of
the program. He said there were two concerns at hand,
one was what did or didn’t happen at the building
while being used and the other was that it had generally been left up to the administration to determine
whether a facility use application would be accepted.
He said if the board voted on this then it would open
them up to voting on every facility use application the
system received.
Baker said the building had historically been used
by the community. She said she would not mind to
wait another month to decide. The matter will be included on next month’s agenda.

in time for
Vols, Bray
GAINESVILLE, Fla. (AP) —
Florida’s Sharrif Floyd watched
from the sideline the first two
games, unable to change his
situation, unable to help his
defense.
The sophomore defensive
lineman sat out the season
opener while under NCAA investigation, then missed another
game after the governing body
ruled he received $2,700 from
an individual not associated
with the
university.
He was orUT at Florida

and arrange to repay the money to

Floyd, who had tears in his eyes
as coach Will Muschamp told
him he couldn’t play.
His return against rival Tennessee on Saturday could be
equally emotional.
“Getting Sharrif Floyd, that
does a lot for our team,” teammate Lerentee McCray said.
“Just motivation, just bringing
our brother along. ... It gives us
a real big boost going into an
SEC game.”
A much-needed boost, too.
The 16th-ranked Gators (20) failed to record a sack in last
week’s game against UAB, and
Muschamp has repeatedly said
he wants more pressure from
his defensive ends.
Floyd’s return should help.
He played in every game last
year and emerged from fall
practice as one of the team’s
most versatile and disruptive
defenders.
“He’s a great athlete, real
strong guy, real powerful,” Gators center Jonotthan Harrison
said. “Sharrif is an amazing
pass rusher. He’s real good, real
versatile, everything on the line.
He’s still pretty quick for a big
guy.”
The Volunteers (2-0) have
noticed. Coach Derek Dooley
said the Gators “probably have
the most talented defensive line
in the country” with Floyd, McCray, Dominique Easley, Jaye
Howard, Omar Hunter and
Ronald Powell.
“We’re going to have to
block for these guys,” Dooley
said. “It doesn’t matter how
open you are, if you can’t deliver the ball to them it doesn’t
matter. That’s going to be our
biggest challenge. This is as
athletic and big as a defensive
front as you’ll see in college
football. They’re good. They
just roll right through the offensive line.”
Tennessee rolled its first two
opponents, scoring at least 40
points in both games as sophomore Tyler Bray completed 79
percent of his passes for 698
yards and seven touchdowns.
Last week, Bray became the second player in school history to
threw for 400 yards in a game.
After putting up gaudy
numbers against Montana and
Cincinnati, Bray now leads the
conference in passing yards, total offense and pass efficiency.
“He has certainly played
two very good football games,”
Dooley said. “He has put a big
investment in trying to be good.
You see it on the practice field,
you see it in the time he’s putting in outside of practice. When
you are putting a lot of investment and you are committing

But the defense has just two sacks, partly because opponents have used two- and three-steps
drops in hopes of getting rid of the ball quickly.
The Gators also have played relatively simple
schemes, far from the creative blitzes that Muschamp installed as defensive coordinator at LSU,
Auburn and Texas.
There’s little doubt Muschamp has been

“The teams that we’ve lost to are going to whip
most teams our size,” he said. “Elizabethton has
one of the best teams in the state regardless of
classification and Boone was fired up after starting 0-2. We ran into a hungry football team that
was starting to play well, but we didn’t do ourselves
any favors by turning over the football.”
The Tribe must find a way to get Jaylen Simmons going this week. So far the standout junior
has yet to have the breakout game that many
Warrior fans were expecting to see.
“We’ve changed a few things on offense. but
we’re still primarily concerned with running the
football and applying pressure on defense,” added
Shively. It’s critical that we control the run game.
You look at the Hampton box score and they completed 20 passes, threw 34 times and nearly gained
300 yards. It’s a contrast in styles. The thing about
Unicoi is they will try to line up and run the football. They want to be balanced but coach Jerad
Huskins is going to do whatever it takes to move
the football, and so far it’s been with the passing
game.”
The Warriors got some good news on Wednesday.
Starting wide receiver and safety Tyler Marlowe
is back practicing after missing the last week and
a half with a concussion. Running back Christian
Mathes is likely to miss his second consecutive
game.
“Other than those, everyone else is healthy,”
Shively said. “They’re all champing at the bit,
ready to go.”
The Blue Devils were their own worst enemy
last week, turning the ball over four times. Quarterback Austin Hensley needs less than 300 passing yards to reach the 1,000 mark for this season.

Alijah scored their first touchdown on a 24yard run in the first quarter while Rodgers broke
loose for a 54-yarder in the second stanza for a
16-0 advantage.
The Cyclones got on the board thanks to a
2-yard touchdown run by Landon Kane, pulling
them within eight at the half.
John Sevier managed a 32-8 cushion after
Thompson scored on runs of 48 and 42 yards in
the third quarter.
TAD started its comeback with an 8-yard
touchdown run by Bryce Richardson early in the
fourth. The Cyclones’ biggest play came moments
later when Trevor Waycaster returned a fumble 67
yards for a score, putting the margin at 32-22.
Kane got them closer with 55 seconds remaining on a 40-yard touchdown pass to Josh Authur,
then ran in the two-point conversion.
John Sevier sealed the win by recovering the
ensuing onsides kick.
Turnovers created on that side
of the football has boosted morale
for the orange and black, and given opponents a headache.
Last week, Elizabethton tallied five interceptions and forced
two fumbles with Chad Pritchard
stepping out with three interceptions and two touchdowns on
returns.
Combined with four forced
fumbles at Happy Valley, the Cyclones have created 11 turnovers
in its last two games.
“Anytime you force turnovers
on defense and score points, it’s
big for your team,” said Witten.
“We’ve forced 11 turnovers in the
last two weeks. We had five interceptions last week and forced four
fumbles at Happy Valley. As big as
our defense plays, it’s helping put
us in position to score points on
offense.”
Offensively, the Cyclones have
gotten an edge early the last two
weeks with solid play at quarterback from McKinley Berry, who
has completed a large chunk of
his throws to a diverse group of
receivers including Zack Treadway, Drew Holtsclaw, Wes Montgomery and Pritchard.
“Our red-zone offense has got
to be better when we can get those
opportunities,” said Witten. “But
the last two weeks we’ve been up
14-0 after the first quarter at Happy Valley and 14-0 after the half
at Tuscola. We’re finding a way to
come out and play early and get a
little bit of space and it’s creating
momentum.”
Any early momentum will be
key against a Sullivan North team
that has used its power running
game to an advantage against
opponents this year.
The Raiders outlasted Volunteer and Eastside, Va., then
turned it up the last two weeks
with decisive wins Sullivan East
and Union County to set up tonight’s battle.
Kairi Thompson has been the
big force on the ground for North.
Against East, Thompson rushed
for 159 yards and three touchdowns. The standout tailback
is joined by a talented running
quarterback, Cory Rowe.
“They’ve got two really good
backs,” said Witten. “North, for
what they do, is really good in that
system. Their staff does a great job
and they’re always playing at a
high level and almost always undefeated when we meet them.”
For the first time since Witten’s been head coach at Elizabethton, the Cyclones will have a
size advantage on the line against
the Raiders.
That battle could tell the tale
when it’s all said and done.
“I think the biggest difference in North from just the last
couple of years, probably the first
time in five years, is we’re bigger
than them up front,” said Witten.
“Overall, this is a big one for us, a
big one for them and this is basically a game going for the conference championship.”
Following the Cyclone walk at
5:15, the game will kick-off at 7:30
from Brown-Childress Stadium.

Happy Valley 14, Johnson County 12
Jr. Warriors get
past Longhorns
By Tim Chambers
STAR STAFF
tchambers@starhq.com
Happy Valley was trying to
hang on like “Sloopy” in the
final seconds of its game with
Johnson County. A jarring tackle
by Sam Blevins on a game-tying
two-point conversion try saved
the day.
Keeping fans in suspense until
the final play, the Warriors eeked
out a 14-12 home win in junior
high football action on Thursday
night.
Happy Valley broke a 6-6 tie
with 50 seconds remaining on a
17-yard run by Caleb Jones. Austin Peters bulled his way in for the
two-point conversion, making it
a 14-6 game.
While the Tribe fans started
to celebrate, the Steers began to
penetrate toward the end zone.
With 23 ticks remaining, Samuel Icenhour got behind the Happy Valley secondary and hauled
in a 64-yard halfback pass from
Cody Bailie for a touchdown.
Blevins then undercut quarterback Justin Pardue in the
backfield on the conversion try,
allowing the Jr. Warriors to run
out the clock.
“This was probably the best
all-around game we’ve played
from the start to finish,” said
Happy Valley head coach Caleb
Moore. “The defense played great
and we did well on offense what
little time we had the ball. Johnson County played well and this
game could have went either way.
It was a outstanding effort from
both teams.”
Happy Valley wasted no time
getting on the board, scoring on
its first possession.
Justin Morefield lofted a 24
yard touchdown pass to Josh
Hammonds on a clutch fourthdown play with 4:20 remaining
in the first. Devante Phillips had
a clutch 23-yard run that kept the
drive alive.
Johnson County was able to
keep Happy Valley’s offense off
the field by controlling time of
possession.
The Longhorns ran 18 offensive plays in the first half to
Happy Valley’s nine.
That trend continued in the
second half.
Johnson County had the ball
for the entire third quarter on
a drive that started at its 40. A
roughing-the-kicker call and a
pass interference penalty on the
Warriors were instrumental in
keeping their march going. but
the ’Horns did they part too. They
nickel and dimed their way down
the field, running 16 offensive
plays before a 2-yard touchdown
run by Alex Roark got them on
the board with 5:54 remaining in
the game.
Happy Valley (4-1) caught
a break on their game-winning
drive when Johnson County was
assessed a five-yard facemask infraction on a fourth-and-4.
Several Warriors stood out in
the win.
Morefield completed a pair
of passes to Hammonds that totaled 68 yards. He also had a
5-yard quarterback sneak on
fourth-and-3 during the winning
march.
Jones ended the night with 44
yard rushing on eight attempts,
in addition to his seven solo tackles. Phillips provided 34 yards
on five carries. Peters ended the
night with eight tackles and the
game-winning conversion.
Also, Austin Hicks led the defense with nine tackles. Skyler
Hyatt contributed a fumble recovery.
“We took a timeout before
Jones scored the go-ahead touchdown because we wanted to be
aggressive,” added Moore. “We
didn’t get him a lot of touches,
but the ones he got were key ones.
He made a great cutback and ran
hard and Peters did a great job of
getting the conversion into the
end zone. Morefield and Hammonds had a good game, and so
did our entire defense. I’m proud
of our entire team for the way
they battled all night.”
The Jr. Highlanders’
Noah Johnson (67)
latches on to Hampton’s Chris Holtsclaw
as Colby Birchfield (22)
comes in to assist on
the play. No. 4 for the
Jr. Bulldogs is Coby
Jones.
Jr. Highlanders
n Continued from 1B
“Austin Whitehead was a horse. He played really well on both sides of the ball, ran hard. Our
other backs got long runs there. Colby played
pretty well on offense, but now Austin was leading the way.”
The Bulldogs were stopped on downs the
game’s opening drive. After an 11-yard gain
from Birchfield, Whitehead cut loose for a 63yard touchdown and Birchfield’s conversion
made it 8-0.
“They ran the ball good,” Arnett said. “We
just got a couple of guys out of position, on a
few certain plays, and that’s what happens when
you get one guy out of position. It takes all 11
guys to play.”
Hampton punted. The first play of the second
quarter, Cloudland coughed up a fumble and
the Bulldogs’ Dylan Nelson recovered.
Hampton had mounted a seven-play drive,
but quarterback Coby Jones was sacked by Peyton Brock to end that threat.
Birchfield opened the ensuing possession
with a 30-yard gain. Whitehead followed with a
9-yard pickup and Birchfield had a 10-yard run,
before the Highlanders were stopped on downs.
“Our linemen did a better job the second
half,” Coach Birchfield said. “The first half we
allowed too much penetration. We just didn’t get
off the ball, but Hampton played their hind-ends
off.
“Coaches did a great job. Hampton was very
prepared for what we were going to do, their
kids played extremely well, they were very-well
coached during the game and they were verywell coached to get ready for this game.”
An eight-play drive to open the third quarter was capped by a Birchfield 22-yard scoring
jaunt. The conversion pass attempt failed and it
was 14-0.
Jones completed a 14-yard pass to Chris Miller in the fourth quarter. The nine-play drive got
nowhere.
Birchfield broke free for a 39-yard gain. Two
snaps later he rambled 39 yards into the end zone
to complete the onslaught, after the conversion
pass was no good with 44.3 seconds remaining.
“Cameron Stevens on the inside, especially
the second half, did a real good job,” Coach
Birchfield said. “Those are two pretty good backs.
Austin might be the best middle linebacker I
have every coached. He’s a stud.”
Birchfield recorded six tackles. Brock was in
on four stops.
Hampton’s Adam McClain rushed for 62
yards on 14 carries. Making four tackles each
were Jones, Ethan Markland, Chris Holtsclaw
and Jake Lyons.

Sharp Sullivan East effort quells Lady Cyclones
By Wes Holtsclaw
Star Staff
wholtsclaw@starhq.com
With superb play around the net, Sullivan East’s volleyball squad used its strengths
as an advantage.
The Lady Patriots delivered long scoring stretches and outlasted Elizabethton in
three games, 25-11, 25-10, 25-16, Thursday
at Treadway Gymnasium.
“They were firing on all cylinders tonight,” said Elizabethton coach Leslee
Bradley. “They had their team going, all of
their hitters were on and they have so many
offensive weapons you don’t know where
the ball is going to come from. And when it
comes, you know it’s going to come hard.”
The first game was a close battle at first,
with the Lady Cyclones cutting a four-point
advantage to one.
But East stretched its lead to 13-10, then
took off with a 10-point stretch behind
Nikki Luster’s serve and cruised to the 2511 edge.
In game two, Luster was strong on serve
early as East overcame a quick Elizabethton
lead with six consecutive points. THe Lady Patriots added a five-point run behind Haley Roe
to build their lead to 11, then scored seven of
the last nine points for the second game.
Game three was more of the same early,
as East built a 6-1 advantage. But Elizabethton got some momentum of its own,
using runs of three and two to pull within
four on four different occasions.
“Every time we had a timeout and be-
Prep VOLLEYBALL
tween games, we talked about adjustments
to be stronger against them, and we showed
that as the match wore on and we were getting closer to them,” said Bradley. “We were
making better adjustments and making
better plays, so the score was definitely indicative of that in the third game.”
East got its mojo back with an 18-14
lead, scoring five consecutive points — then
adding two more points to seal the win.
“I thought we played pretty well tonight,” said Sullivan East coach Julia Rafalowski. “I was able to change it up a little
bit too and get more people in that haven’t
gotten a lot of playing time here lately. They
were able to come in and not change the
tone of the game very much.”
Kara Anderson, Brittany Scott, Tori
James and Roe were big around the net for
the visitors and created some frustration for
Elizabethton.
“I tell them all the time we’ve just got
to be strong and hit a lot,” said Rafalowski.
“Offense is huge for us and we really have
focused a lot more on that this year than we
have in the past.”
East was led by a double-double from
Anderson, who tallied 10 kills and 12 digs.
Luster had six aces and six kills, while
Casey Williams tallied 29 digs and Roe
added 26 assists.
For Elizabethton, Ashleigh Dykes was
strong with six kills and 100 percent service
in all three games.
MLB:
Briefly:
Miss. State
falls to LSU
STARKVILLE, Miss. (AP) — Jarrett Lee completed 21 of 27 passes for
213 yards and a touchdown and No.
3 LSU defeated No. 25 Mississippi
State 19-6 on Thursday night.
Lee was the unexpected star, firing conservative, but nearly perfect
passes all over the field. His 19-yard
touchdown pass to Rueben Randle
with 11:56 left in the fourth quarter
gave LSU a 16-6 lead.
His only mistake was an interception minutes later, but as it had
all game, LSU’s defense stuffed Mississippi State with little trouble. LSU
(3-0, 1-0 Southeastern Conference)
had 14 tackles for a loss and held
the Bulldogs (1-2, 0-2) to 123 total
yards and two field goals.
Lady Buffs
spank TWC
from staff reports
ATHENS, Tenn. — Milligan was
a team in command Thursday night,
stopping Tennessee Wesleyan 3-0 (2513, 25-11, 25-13) in Appalachian Athletic Conference volleyball play.
After the Lady Buffs cruised in the
opening set, Chelsea Spivey served 12
straight points to open the second —
and Milligan never looked back. The
Lady Bulldogs kept the final set close
in the early going, but Milligan went

Lady Cyclones
n Continued from 1B
I think within two minutes or so – so there was no
letdown on our side.
“With the score 1-1 at halftime, we knew we
were in the match.”
In the 10th minute Greeneville (5-5 overall,
5-0-1 conference) broke through on a breakaway
goal from senior Nicole Ffyfe, which came from a
clearing error in the EHS midfield.
Ffyfe took possession on the EHS side of the
midfield stripe and broke in clean and fired a
low shot past Cyclone goalkeeper Abby Stephenson.
Hardin got the equalizer in the 32nd minute
on a pretty drive, in which Hardin split the last two
Greene Devil defenders inside the goal box and
beat Greeneville ‘keeper Caroline Quarles to even
the match at 1-1.
“We had a few breakdowns defensively,” said
Greeneville’s head coach John Eiskamp. “We
knew they would be looking to get the ball to
Christine. That’s no secret, she’s a great player
and she knows where the goal is.”
Tiffany Barnette, Naomi Eberle, Paige Jones
and Sophie Bremer were solid on the defensive
backline against the aggressive Greeneville attack
and enabled the Cyclones to counter effectively in
the second half.
“We changed up our defense to show something new,” Hardin said. “We dropped a player
back, and tried to possess the ball more than we
normally do. All that combined enabled us to put
pressure on them.”
In the second half, Greeneville took the initiative and broke the deadlock in the 53rd minute on
a tally by junior Kelli Grissom. A ball placed over
the top from the defensive midfield found Grissom
outside the Cyclone goal box, and she put a nicely
placed shot into the EHS net for a 2-1 Greene Devil
advantage.
“We had the lead and could have had more,”
said Eiskamp. “We missed on a few corner kicks
that we didn’t cover the backside of the net on.

Tampa tightens
wild-card race
BOSTON (AP) — Boston
shortstop Marco Scutaro had to
dodge a broken bat and wound
up letting the go-ahead single
through his legs on Thursday
night as the Tampa Bay Rays
beat the Red Sox 9-2 and cut
their deficit in the AL wild-card
race to three games.
The Red Sox dropped to 3-11
in September to fall from first
place in the division to 41⁄2 games
behind the New York Yankees and
into a race with the Rays for the
wild-card. Boston and Tampa Bay
play three more times at Fenway
Park this weekend.
B.J. Upton broke a scoreless tie
in the third inning with his bataided RBI single, and Evan Longoria followed with a three-run
homer. Casey Kotchman added a
two-run shot in the sixth to make
it 6-1, and in the seventh Upton
hit a two-run homer and Kotchman added an RBI single.
Jeremy Hellickson (13-10) allowed one run on three hits and
four walks, striking out four in 5
2-3 innings. Kyle Weiland (0-2)
pitched three-plus innings, giving
up four runs on three hits and two
walks.
Rangers 7, Indians 4
ARLINGTON, Texas — Michael Young hit a three-run
double to go over 100 RBIs for the
second time in his career and the
AL West-leading Rangers completed a three-game series sweep
of Cleveland.
Royals 7, White Sox 2
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Melky
Cabrera had four hits, including
a home run, and Billy Butler hit a
three-run homer to lead the Royals
to a victory over the White Sox.
Athletics 6, Tigers 1
OAKLAND, Calif. — David
DeJesus hit a three-run homer
in the first, Brandon McCarthy
pitched seven strong innings and
the Athletics snapped Detroit’s 12game winning streak, delaying
the Tigers chance to clinch the AL
Central Division title.
Phillies 3-2, Florida 1-1
PHILADELPHIA — Ryan Howard hit an RBI double in the 10th
inning soon after Cliff Lee fell one
strike short of his seventh shutout,
and Philadelphia beat Florida 2-1
to sweep a doubleheader.
In the opener, Kyle Kendrick
threw five sharp innings for the
Phillies in a 3-1 win.
Giants 8, Rockies 5
DENVER — Pablo Sandoval
tripled in the sixth inning to complete the first cycle of his career
and San Francisco kept its slim
postseason hopes alive.
Nationals 10, Mets 1
NEW YORK — Ian Desmond
had a career-high five hits and
Tommy Milone earned his first
major league win, leading Washington to a four-game sweep.
Reds 8, Cubs 6, 11 innings
CINCINNATI — Jay Bruce hit
a two-run homer in the 11th inning for Cincinnati.
Pirates 6, Dodgers 2
LOS ANGELES — Ross Ohlendorf got his first win of the season
in seven starts and hit a three-run
homer to help the Pirates beat the
Dodgers, a loss that mathematically eliminated the bankrupt
franchise from the NL West race.
