PIGEON FORGE — As federal money that will help build a sec-ond fire station heads to Pigeon Forge, city leaders are set to look at modifying the plans for a new truck in the works for the Fire Department when they meet at 5:30 p.m. Monday in City Hall.

On the agenda for that session of the City Commission is consid-

eration of a request that the truck order with 4 Guys Inc. be revised to include some changes Chief Tony Watson says will “ultimately enhance firefighter safety.”

Those edits include adding power outlets to an EMS compart-ment on the truck, putting siren speakers under the truck’s front bumper, changing how some of the storage in the back of the vehicle is arranged and installing two additional compartments to

each side of the crew exits. The total cost for all the changes is $4,356, according to a quote from 4 Guys General Manager Mark Albright.

In a memo to city officials, Watson wrote the changes will allow the department to use equipment it currently owns, and will make Engine 21 easier and safer to use for firefighters.

Also on the agenda for Monday’s session:

■ Purchase of three in-car cam-eras on a state contract for the Police Department

■ A bid on the inspection and cleaning-out of water storage tanks

■ Reappointment of three members to the Citizens Tourism Advisory Board and three new appointments to that group to fill vacancies.

GATLINBURG — The East Tennessee Historical Society and Anna Porter Public Library will host a viewing of Dr. Robert Thomas and Evelyn Bishop documenta-ries, along with other local award-winning National History Day projects, from 2 to 4 p.m. Sunday at the library.

“The historical society wanted to make sure the winners were recognized in their hometown, and for the public to see these proj-ects that are relevant to the community,” said Lisa N. Oakley, the society’s curator of education. “It’s something the students should really be proud of.”

Elijah Gray, a home-schooled student, and Hannah Clevenger, now a sophomore at Gatlinburg-Pittman High School, experienced great success at National History Day in June at the University of Maryland. Elijah’s documen-tary, “Dr. Robert F. Thomas: The Great Smoky Mountains Horseback Healer of Body and Soul,” won second place, and Hannah’s film “Evelyn Bishop: Crafting a Legacy in the Tennessee Mountains,” placed seventh.

Exhibit boards from other local students that placed at the district or state level will also be available for viewing at the library. They include “Arthur Stupka: Cataloging Diversity,” by Grant Fisher, Pi Beta Phi Elementary; “Ann Davis: Mother of the Park,” by Katie Garrett and Kayleigh


GATLINBURG — The Gatlinburg Convention Center almost surely could lay claim to the title “world’s longest buffet,” as two walls of the largest room in that facility were flanked by some culinary offerings.

This year’s Taste of Autumn, an event put on by the city of Gatlinburg to benefit United Way of Sevier County, brought hundreds of people out to sample the products of 19 restau-rants and food vendors. The evening, which included live entertainment and an auction, raised more than $8,000 for United Way, that in turn will provide funding to 26 agencies serving local people.

SEVIERVILLE — No amount of rain was going to keep Cheryl Zamora from doing her part to help make Sevier County a little more beautiful.

“I told my students I would be out here rain or shine,” the Cattletsburg Elementary sixth-grade teacher said as she wrangled trash out of a ditch at Sevierville City Park.

Apparently, at least a couple of her students were willing to make the same commitment to being part of the annual Roads and Rivers Day, a countywide litter cleanup effort put on by Keep Sevier Beautiful. Sixth-graders Marcus Rodante and Adriana Harmon picked up their trash bags and grabbers, and fol-

lowed Zamora on the mission to make their community a better place.

“I came because I want to help the environment,” Harmon said.

That dedication to doing one’s part for the earth is something Zamora said she strives to teach her students, not only in the classroom but through the school’s new 4-H program.

“I told them I can remember how in the 1960s we were all taking about stopping pollution and saving the earth, and here we are four decades later and where are we? You might say we’re worse off than we were,” Zamora said. “I tell them it’s impor-tant to protect the earth because that’s their future.”

The message seems to be sinking in.

“I want to clean up the park and

help out the rivers so fish can live there and there’s no pollution in them,” Marcus said.

The trio slogged through shaggy grass in the park early Saturday morning, the bottoms of their pants legs carrying with them dew and the remnants of a Friday evening rain shower. As they picked their way through a drainage ditch, they found everything from cups to an aban-doned baseball, as well as plenty of what may well be the most prevalent litter item across the state.

“What have we found lots of?” Zamora asked the children. “Cigarette butts, right? They’re everywhere.”

The three were part of a wider effort that included seven organized sites and countless others around

GATLINBURG — The Gatlinburg Hospitality Association, formerly Gatlinburg Lodging & Hospitality Association, has recently welcomed restaurants as full mem-bers.

SEVIERVILLE — AT&T has a new cell site nine miles north of Gatlinburg that will enhance cover-age along Highway 416 and Pittman Center Road.

This past June, AT&T wireless customers in Gatlinburg, Pigeon Forge and Sevierville were upgraded with AT&T’s third generation wireless broadband technology.

“Expanding the wire-less network across the state is a priority in 2009, particularly in rural areas and highly traveled roads in Tennessee,” said Gregg Morton, president of AT&T Tennessee.

“AT&T is a good cor-porate citizen in Sevier County and we’re pleased that they continue to grow and are a vital part of our community,” said Sevier County Mayor Larry Waters.

From 2006 to 2008,

AT&T’s total capital invest-ment in Tennessee was more than $1.2 billion in wireline and wireless net-works. AT&T operates 39

AT&T retail locations in Tennessee.

SEVIERVILLE — From 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Wednesday and again on Oct. 28, Sid Parrott, a reverse mortgage special-ist, will be available to Sevier County Bank customers at the main branch to discuss this mortgage option.

Parrott is with Mortgage South, a Chattanooga-based mortgage company responsible for closing the first reverse mortgage in Tennessee.

“We are always looking for new and different ways to help our customers, especially during these difficult times,” said R.B. Summitt II, Sevier County

Bank president. “Reverse mortgages are a valid option and can really help our senior citizen customers who may want to use their home’s equity to improve or maintain their overall lifestyle.”

A reverse mortgage is only available to homeowners 62 and up who own their home free and clear of debt or nearly so. The home must be free of tax liens. A reverse mortgage enables them to convert the equity in their home to cash.

With a reverse mortgage, payments are made by the lender to the borrower, rather than monthly repayments by the borrower to the lender.

PIGEON FORGE — Tennessee State Bank has received support from Sevier County residents and bank employees for the bank’s involvement in Relay For Life.

the community. Keep Sevier Beautiful volunteers were stationed at the main locations — including the park, Patriot Park, Pigeon Forge City Hall, Seymour First Baptist Church, East Tennessee Realty in Wears Valley, Sugarlands Visitors Center in the National Park and Catons Chapel School — to distribute the needed materials and collect the refuse.

Beyond those, the orga-nization offered local folks the opportunity to pick up the same materials and take them back to their own neighborhoods or other parts of the community they know needed help.

Despite the threat and eventual materialization of rain, hundreds turned out to be part of the event, which is held in conjunc-tion with the national Public Lands Day. In addi-tion to Roads and Rivers Day, volunteers also fanned out along the Spur to help rid that area of National Park Service property of trash.

have become an annual tradi-tion for many, including United Way board chairman Gregory Payne.

“The food’s really excellent. They’ve outdone themselves this year,” Payne said. “This year’s Taste of Autumn has gone extremely well. We’ve had a good turnout and we’re thankful for that and for the city of Gatlinburg putting this on because this is one of the major events of our campaign.”

Those who came out paid $25 each for unlimited sam-ples of dishes from the res-taurants, which offered every-

thing from sausage gumbo to ribs. The restaurants donated enough food to serve 400 peo-ple.

“We’re so thankful that these restaurants participate in this and they’re willing to contribute in such a big way,” Gatlinburg special events coordinator Jon Elder said. “This really is a great event and we’re proud to put it on.”

Elder has taken the lead on organizing Taste of Autumn for five of its 12 years. He said he is pleased with the way this year’s event came together and the varied offerings that filled the convention hall.

Of course, not everyone who was out Thursday is a prac-ticed taster. The event regularly

brings out tourists and local first-timers.

“This is my first one and I loved it,” said Jan Brady, owner of Gatlinburg’s Whole Earth Grocery. “It’s great. There was some incredible food. I’m amazed these restaurants are willing to donate all of this to help a good cause.”

Brady’s only complaint about the event is she, like virtually everyone in the room, did a bit of overindulging. For her, a fish-eating vegetarian, that’s some-thing of a rarity at buffets that rarely offer a good selection for those who won’t eat meat.

“There was a really good selection, even for a vegetar-ian,” she said. “There was plenty for everybody, though. I mean,

there were two kinds of ribs here.”

Brady vowed to come back again next year, good news for United Way supporters who have struggled in the last few years with their fundraising.

United Way has set a $500,000 fundraising target that volunteers and staffers hope to surpass.

The money helps keep the doors open at a long list of agen-cies that help meet the needs of local residents, from fire protec-tion to health care to education.

CHICAGO (AP) — More than half a million U.S. children yearly have bad reac-tions or side effects from widely used med-icines that require medical treatment and sometimes hospitalization, new research shows.

Children younger than age 5 are most commonly affected. Penicillin and other prescription antibiotics are among drugs causing the most problems, including rashes, stomachaches and diarrhea.

Parents should pay close attention when their children are started on medicines

since “first-time medication exposures may reveal an allergic reaction,” said lead author Dr. Florence Bourgeois, a pediatri-cian with Children’s Hospital in Boston.

Doctors also should tell parents about possible symptoms for a new medication, she said.

It’s based on national statistics on patients’ visits to clinics and emergency rooms between 1995 and 2005. The num-ber of children treated for bad drug reac-tions each year was mostly stable during that time, averaging 585,922.

Today is Monday, Sept. 28, the 271st day of 2009. There are 94 days left in the year.

■ Locally a year ago:The once friendly, sym-

biotic relationship between Arrowmont School of Arts & Crafts and Pi Beta Phi Fraternity for Women is no more. These days the two sides communicate mostly through their Web pages or their attorneys.

■ today’s highlight:On Sept. 28, 1909, satiri-

cal cartoonist Al Capp, the creator of “Li’l Abner,” was born in New Haven, Conn.

■ on this date:In 1787, the Congress of

the Confederation voted to send the just-completed Constitution of the United States to state legislatures for their approval.

In 1974, first lady Betty Ford underwent a mastectomy at Bethesda Naval Medical Center in Maryland, following dis-covery of a cancerous lump in her breast.

■ ten years ago: The Supreme Court

agreed to decide whether a state can give visitation rights to grandparents when, after a divorce or some other family split, the children’s parents say no. (The court later ruled that Washington state went too far in allowing grandparents and others to seek court-ordered vis-its against parents’ wishes, but it stopped short of giv-ing parents absolute veto power over who gets to visit their children.)

■ thought for today: “The secret of how to

live without resentment or embarrassment in a world in which I was different from everyone else, was to be indifferent to that difference.” — Al Capp, American cartoonist (1909-1979).

JOHNSON CITY (AP) — First-year medical stu-dents at East Tennessee State University are now getting tours of a museum as part of the curriculum.

The museum at Mountain Home, housed in Building 34 at the Veterans Administration Medical Center, is home to a collection of medical and military artifacts dat-ing back to the early 20th century.

“We talk to them about history and talk to them about profes-sionalism,” said Dr. T.T.

“Sam” Knight, president of the museum’s board of directors. “We want them to come away with an impression of the culture of medicine.”

Most academic disci-plines fall under the cate-gory of either humanities or science, but medicine is both, Knight said. He believes learning about the history of medicine gives students a bet-ter understanding of the human aspect of the pro-fession.

“Technology dehuman-izes some things in the

profession,” he told the Johnson City Press. “Not intentionally, but it just happens that way.”

The museum’s artifacts represent not just a more primitive era in technol-ogy, but a different way of thinking about medicine.

“The true science in medicine is a 20th centu-ry development,” Knight said. “Anything prior to that time was about what you believed rather than what you could prove.”

In one corner of the museum is a re-creation of the complete office of

Dr. A.J. Willis, a general practitioner in the 1940s and 1950s.

“He was famous for going around on horse-back and delivering babies. Everybody on the lower end of the county knew Dr. Willis. Not only did he deliver babies and take out appendixes, but from the looks of that table there, he pulled teeth. Those are dental forceps,” Dr. Calvin Morgan, vice president of the museum’s board of directors, said as he pointed to a tray of shiny tools.

7 Opinion Mon.

I enjoy writing — this column, my first novel, my second novel, and short stories that I enter in contests.

I’m still writing my second novel which I will finish within the next month. It’s such a process, though; not as easy as one would imagine.

I’ve heard and talked to people who have said that they would love to write a book, but did not know where to start. Well, I tell them to start with page one and when you finish that, go to page two.

Actually, the writing is easy. It’s the publishing process that is hard. I believe that everyone has a book in them. Why wouldn’t they?

Those who read a lot have more of an inclination to write. As a mat-ter of fact, if you want to be a writer, you have to read as much as you can — and write. Simply watching a movie about a book is really not good enough.

When I was a small child, my moth-er would read to me. I would bring her the comic pages of the newspaper and ask her to read them to me. I wore her out. Eventually, I was able to read on my own and visited the library as much as I could.

A library is one of the most neglect-ed schools. In there is everything and everywhere you want to go. Your imagination will come alive.

When I was able to check out books on my own, I frequently was told by the librarian that I had to put some of those books back. “That’s too many,” she would say. The older you got, though, the more they trusted you with multiple book rentals.

I grew up in the inner city and had to go to the main library, which was enormous. Only the suburbs had sat-ellite branches.

I’ve taken the advice of some of the biggest writers in the country on per-fecting writing skills. One person who you might know is Stephen King. I’m not so much into his genre, but he did write a book on the subject of writing. What I gleaned from this book was how to approach the whole subject.

You take on the role of archaeologist in this exercise by knowing that your book is already written. What you must do is uncover it bit by bit, just like sci-entists who dig up bones. Under that soil is a complete dinosaur; you can’t see it yet, but it’s there.

So is your story. Start with the first page. Surely you

have some ideas on what you want to say, what you want to tell others. Take you brush and slowly start removing the dust and dirt, and your dinosaur (book) will appear.

Another writer I admire more than any other is Nicholas Sparks. I don’t write in his style, but he inspires me more than any other. I’m sure you’re familiar with his works since some of his novels have been made into movies: “Message In A Bottle,” “The Notebook,” “The Rescue” and “Nights In Rodanthe.” I spent a week in Rodanthe on the beach back in 2002 and had a great time myself.

His books and characters remind me of people I have known and currently know. To the person who lent me “The Rescue”: I still have it.

So many people have asked me about how I write and why and how they can get started writing their first novel. The main part about writing is convincing yourself that you can do it. Don’t let others decide that you’re not good enough.

Write for yourself and let the rest of it all fall into place. I hope I have helped.

When I saw Nicholas Sparks on Sept. 9 to get his newest book auto-graphed, he told me that you should never give up or lose hope. His first two books were never published. Someone thought that they weren’t good enough.

Stephen King missed it with his first five novels — again, not good enough. But look what happened on his sixth one.

The rest is history.— Dan M. Smith is a Cincinnati

native and Gatlinburg resident. He is the author of the forthcoming book “So Far from Forfar.” His son is serving in the Air Force. E-mail to [email protected].

“Congress shall make no law respecting an establish-ment of religion or prohibiting the free exercise thereof;

Tennesseans who want to see environmental “green” and those who want to see monetary “green” are learning just how difficult it can be to obtain either, or both.

Consider the state’s pursuit of solar power as a signature Tennessee green industry and its hopes to acquire a 1,700-acre “megasite” tract in Haywood County that could lure a large company — possibly a clean-ener-gy provider — that would in turn give jobs to lots of Tennesseans amid a struggling economy.

With one solar-panel manufac-turer already in Memphis and a solar-semiconductor plant under construction in Clarksville, Gov.

Phil Bredesen looks to make Tennessee a base for solar by establishing a solar research institute at the University of Tennessee-Knoxville and a 5-megawatt-generating solar “farm” on 20 acres next to the megasite.

The solar farm was part of the same site, but it was separated to satisfy guidelines for $62 million in federal stimulus funds for the solar farm and the institute. ...

To acquire the land for the meg-asite, the state needs $40 million, a daunting sum when the state is running a deficit. That money is being held up by the State Building Commission, which

wants to further scrutinize the plan before handing it over. ...

The megasite lies only a few miles from the Hatchie National Wildlife Refuge, and creeks near the site connect to the Hatchie River, a tributary of the Mississippi. With the only envi-ronmental analysis so far being paid for by officials who want to develop the site, some local resi-dents along with environmental groups are worried about the pos-sible impact of megasite waste treatment on that ecosystem.

Haywood County officials say they have a plan to divert and treat waste away from the Hatchie area. ...

Tennessee economic develop-ment officials did an outstand-ing job in convincing federal Department of Energy officials that the solar farm fits as part of an economic-stimulus strat-egy. To have similar success on the megasite, they must convince Tennesseans that the site is in the right place. They also should ensure that all regulatory require-ments are satisfied before making public inducements to lure a pri-vate company.

Our state needs the jobs, but our leaders must balance that against the cost to taxpayers and the need to protect our natural resources.

As a player, Bobby Cox was an aver-age-fielding third baseman, appearing in 220 games for bad New York Yankees teams in the late 1960s and holding a career batting average of .225. He had all of nine home runs, 58 runs batted in and three stolen bases while striking one out of every five times he went to the plate.

Six summers from now, that same Bobby Cox will almost certainly be enshrined in the Baseball Hall of Fame — a destination such luminaries as Barry Bonds, Mark McGwire, Roger Clemens and Sammy Sosa may not reach.

For all his mediocrity as a player, Cox belongs on the Mount Rushmore of baseball managers. He ranks up there with Connie Mack, John J. McGraw and Tony LaRussa. In his bril-liant career, Cox has compiled more wins than did Walter Alston, Tommy Lasorda, Joe Torre and even the great Casey Stengel.

Last week Cox, amid much specula-tion, announced that he had accepted a one-year extension to manage the Atlanta Braves, but that he would retire

at the end of the 2010 season and become a consultant to the team he has managed since 1990.

It’s a day that fans in Braves Nation — of which Sevier County can certainly be counted as a part considering its prox-imity to Atlanta — knew had to happen, but hoped it would be later rather than sooner.

With Ted Turner controlling the purse strings, John Schuerholz calling in the shots in front office and Cox running the game in the dugout, the Braves rose from a long streak of apathy to earn 14 straight postseason berths, including five divisional titles from 1991 through 2005. Not even those who managed the Yankees — the Standard Oil of major league baseball — can lay claim to that distinction.

That Atlanta won only World Series title (in 1995 against Cleveland) in that stretch is disappointing. Fans have reck-oned that with a pitching staff anchored by future Hall-of-Famers Greg Maddux, Tom Glavine and John Smoltz, that simply was unacceptable. There are two caveats: First, Atlanta never had

the dominant closer, such as Mariano Rivera, other teams had. Second, to win a World Series in this era, a team must survive three rounds instead of one.

Over the years, Braves fans came to see Cox — who turned 68 in May and whose gait has slowed considerably — as a wise, old, soft-spoken grandfatherly figure. Never doubt — not that we claim to be experts but what the record con-tinues to clearly show — the competitive spirit continues to burn hotly inside Cox. He has been ejected from a record 150 games during his career and shows no signs of slowing down.

After a couple of down years, the Braves appear to be close to returning to the top of the National League’s East Division with a mixture of talented vet-eran and young players. The team will likely finish with close to 90 wins this season. Adding a key player or two this offseason could return Atlanta to the top.

It would be absolutely perfect if the Braves could put a Hollywood ending on Bobby Cox’ Hall-of-Fame career by sending him out with his second world championship.

KNOXVILLE (AP) — Replacing a top defensive player is not exactly how Tennessee planned to pre-pare for the heart of its Southeastern Conference schedule.

With Auburn and No. 18 Georgia looming, the Volunteers (2-2) must replace middle linebacker Nick Reveiz and restore the health of other players despite being low on depth.

“We’ve got a lot of work to do and a lot of holes to fill,” coach Lane Kiffin said. “That’s why we play our freshman so much at the

beginning of when they get here because you are going to need them, especially with the depth issues that we have.”

Kiffin said Reveiz, a for-mer walk-on from Farragut who had worked his way to a scholarship and starting position, likely would miss the rest of the season after injuring his right knee in the Vols’ 34-23 win over Ohio.

Tennessee entered the game without linebacker LaMarcus Thompson (back) and defensive end Wes Brown (knees). Linebacker Herman Lathers left the game after suffering a con-cussion and defensive end Chris Walker left with a sore

back.They’re injuries the

Vols can hardly afford. The defense, now ranked eighth in the Football Bowl Subdivision, has helped keep Tennessee competi-tive even when the offense is struggling.

“We looked like a differ-ent defense than what you’re used to seeing,” Kiffin said. “We’ve got to make plays, it doesn’t matter who’s in there. There’s no excuses. We’ve got to play better.”

That also applies to the offense.

Kiffin tried to give the woeful Tennessee passing game a chance to improve against the Bobcats (2-2).

In their first three games, the Vols relied on their stable of tough run-

ning backs. Against the Bobcats, Tennessee rushed for 177 yards while Jonathan

Crompton completed 17 of 34 passes for 222 yards and two touchdowns.

Tennessee running back Montario Hardesty (2) is tackled by Ohio’s Kris Luchsinger during the second half of their game Saturday in Knoxville. Tennessee won 34-23.

GAINESVILLE, Fla. (AP) — Florida quarterback Tim Tebow returned home Sunday, about 12 hours after sustaining a concussion dur-ing the team’s 41-7 victory at Kentucky.

Tebow was released from the University Medical Center in Lexington, Ky., Sunday morning. He was held for precautionary rea-sons. Coach Urban Meyer spent the night in hospital with Tebow.

“Tim is doing fine,” Meyer said. “His CT scans came back and indicated that Tim suffered a concussion. Our medical and athletic train-ing staff will continue to monitor him to determine how much rest and recov-ery he needs. We will have additional information and updates this week.”

The top-ranked Gators (4-0) are off Saturday, then play at LSU on Oct. 10. It might be several days, maybe even longer, before Tebow’s status becomes clearer for what could be the tough-est game on the defending national champions’ sched-ule.

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. (AP) — After looking vulner-able for the first time this season, the New York Jets’ top-ranked defense came up big in the end.

David Harris had an interception and a big sack on con-secutive drives, and Mark Sanchez threw two touchdown passes and ran for another as the Jets stayed undefeated by holding on for a 24-17 victory over the Tennessee Titans on Sunday.

Sanchez became the first rookie quarterback to start a sea-son and win in his first three games, helping the Jets to the fourth 3-0 start in franchise history. Rex Ryan also joined Al Groh (2000) as the only Jets coaches to win their first three games.

New York’s defense, which allowed its first touchdowns of the season, turned up the pressure in the fourth quarter and stopped Kerry Collins, who was 0 for his last 13 as the Titans fell to 0-3.

After Chris Hope picked off Sanchez, the Titans got the ball back with a chance to tie. Five plays later, Harris stepped in front of a pass intended for Alge Crumpler to squash the drive.

The Jets couldn’t put it away, though, going four-and-out after a holding penalty. But, the defense — and another loud Meadowlands crowd — was there again to bail out New York.

After a 12-yard run by Chris Johnson and an incompletion, the Titans had a false start. Harris then sacked Collins for an 8-yard loss to push Tennessee back to its 33. Collins then mis-fired on his last two pass attempts to seal it for the Jets.

Sanchez finished 17 of 30 for 171 yards and TD tosses to Jerricho Cotchery and Ben Hartsock. Collins was 15 of 37 for 170 yards and a touchdown, but threw two interceptions.

Johnson had 97 yards on 22 carries a week after he set a career high with 197 yards rushing.

New York took the lead after Ryan Mouton muffed a punt and the ball was recovered by Larry Izzo. Four plays later, Sanchez found Cotchery in the front of the end zone for a 6-yard touchdown that gave New York a 21-17 lead.

ATLANTA (AP) — Golf’s two biggest stars shared the stage at East Lake with tro-phies that were meaningful in vastly different ways.

Phil Mickelson capped off a tumultuous summer at home with a spectacu-lar rally from four shots behind Sunday, closing with a 5-under 65 to win the Tour Championship for his first victory since his wife and mother were diagnosed with breast can-cer.

Tiger Woods finished off another big year by winning the FedEx Cup for the second time in three years to collect the $10 million bonus. His hopes of winning the Tour Championship ended when he failed to make a birdie until the 15th hole, closing with a 70.

It was dramatic end to the FedEx Cup, with three players having a chance at the big prize on the back nine.

Mickelson made sure the Tour Championship was his all along, shooting 31 on the front nine and play-ing without a bogey.

WASHINGTON (AP) — The Atlanta Braves scored three in the top of the 10th inning Sunday, keeping up their late-season surge and completing a sweep of the Washington Nationals with a 6-3 victory.

Brian McCann drove in a run with a groundout, and pinch hitter Omar Infante followed with a two-run single as the Braves ran their winning streak to six. They’ve also won 10 in a row on the road — their longest such streak in more than five years — and are a season-high 15 games over .500 entering the final week of the season.

Mike Gonzalez (5-4) picked up the win in relief for the Braves, who began the day 2 1/2 games behind Colorado in the race for the NL wild card. Rafael Soriano pitched the 10th for his 27th save.

Mike MacDougal (1-1) got the loss for the Nationals, who have dropped four straight and 103 on the season, surpassing the loss total from last year’s 59-102 finish.

DOVER, Del. (AP) — Jimmie Johnson swept the season races at Dover International Speedway to accel-erate his bid for a fourth straight Sprint Cup title.

Johnson cut Hendrick Motorsports teammate Mark Martin’s points lead Sunday with the victory — his fourth of the year — in the second of 10 races in the Chase for the championship.

No winner of the second Dover race has ever gone on to win the Cup championship. If any driver can reverse that trend, it’s Johnson. Much as he did in May, Johnson’s No. 48 Chevrolet was out in front for the majority of the race.

Chase drivers took nine of the first 11 spots. Martin followed last week’s win at New Hampshire with a second-place finish. Juan Pablo Montoya was fourth and Kurt Busch fifth.

Martin, the oldest driver in Sprint Cup, has been the best one in the sport this season. He’s won more races than Tony Stewart. Has more poles than Johnson. But he didn’t win on Sunday, finishing second. Martin made his 750th Cup start, making him only the ninth driver in history to reach that mark. He was 40 wins, 253 top-five finishes and 411 top-10s in the first 749 starts.

Joey Logano’s No. 20 car flipped seven times coming off the back straightaway. Logano walked away shaken but unhurt. Reed Sorenson, Martin Truex Jr. and Robby Gordon also avoided injuries even though their cars were heavily damaged.

Tony Stewart, the 2002 and 2005 champion, wound up with a hole in the front end of his car and minor damage to the right rear but was able to continue with-out losing a lap.

these visions.Canter, along with his

wife Sabrina, owns Moe’s Southwest Grill, the local incarnation of a somewhat funky chain that offers hand-made foods from the taco to the quesadilla and everything Tex-Mex in between. The store is a combination of a dream, a risk and an opportunity for the Canters.

Joe Canter’s story starts far from Sevierville. He was born in Charleston, S.C., but says he didn’t really have a home for the first decade of his life. The son of an Air Force man, Canter bounced around from base to base until his father died in the line of duty.

“I still remember the night it happened,” Canter says. “I was spending the night at somebody’s house when we got the news. We knew something wasn’t right when he didn’t come home, of course. He was killed in a combat training mis-sion.”

Canter’s mom remarried and the family made its home in Norfolk, Va., for several years before Canter joined the Navy after going to school to be a welder.

“I wanted to be an underwa-ter welder,” he says.

When he’s asked how one might do that, given that weld-ing heat, Canter is quick with an answer that is likely true, but short of an explanation.

“It’s tricky,” he says with a laugh.

As it turned out, though his recruiters assured him he’d soon be deep in a Connecticut harbor mending nuclear sub-marines, the Navy decided to start contracting out its under-water welding projects. After his four-year stint in the ser-vice was up, he was gone.

He headed back to Norfolk in 1996 and took up working as a civilian welder. During the same time, he made a religious decision that would, in a roundabout way, change his life.

Canter began attending a messianic synagogue, a house of worship for Jews who believe Jesus is the messiah, in the interests of learning more about a religious tradi-tion that fascinated him. He interspersed his times there with services at Norfolk’s Central Baptist Church. It was at Central that he met the woman who would become his wife.

“I think I might have been teaching the Sunday school class the first time Sabrina was there,” Canter says. “We started talking there and ended up spending time together.”

And that’s when Canter he gave up the bachelor life after a ceremony in that syna-gogue. And he had a culinary experience during his court-ship of Sabrina that would direct the course of both their lives.

“She wanted to take me to a place called Moe’s,” Canter says. “We drove by it every day. I had thought about eating there before because

I was looking for a new place to eat lunch, but I thought it was a fancy, sit-down kind of place and I needed something faster.”

As anyone who has visited a Moe’s can tell you, though, it’s more like a Subway for bur-ritos.

“She took me in and I loved it,” Canter says. “We made Monday our Moe’s date night because they have Moe Monday when they give a special deal on a burrito meal. That became our tradition and we continued that even when we got married.”

The couple had been talking about ways they could move their retirement date back some, with Sabrina hoping to get out of work-a-day by age 55.

“We had just been talk-ing to the manager at Moe’s about the business, just out of curiosity,” Canter says. “I kind of looked at her one evening and I said, ‘I think we could do this.’ She just said, ‘No.’ But then a couple days later, she started to come around.”

That’s when the welder and his horticulturist wife looked at opening a store in Bristol, but found out the area was already

under the control of another franchisee. Then, Moe’s offi-cials offered an alternative.

“They told us they were looking to open a store in the Pigeon Forge/Gatlinburg area,” Canter says.

They settled on a promising new strip mall located on the Parkway behind Olive Garden.

Then the recession hit.Since then, only one other

store has moved into the shop-ping center and Moe’s has had a hard time attracting custom-ers.

“Things aren’t as good as we’d hoped, but it’s growing,” he says. “We’re getting more locals each week and most of them love it. We know if we could get people to know about Moe’s, they would like it. We’re just trying to get the word out there.”

So that’s where it stands for the welder turned gourmand. He’s standing at the ready now to shout “Welcome to Moe’s,” the chain’s signature greeting. And when they do start com-ing, Canter has promised not to say, “I told you so.”

He’ll just be glad to see them. They’re part of his dream.

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — You can leave the U.S., but it’s getting harder to leave behind baggage fees.

Fees to check bags on international flights are creeping in and may be here to stay. In the past three months, all the big U.S. carriers have added $50 fees to check a second bag on flights to Europe. Delta and Continental are charging second-bag fees for flights to Latin America, too.

We’ve flown this route before, with domestic bag fees. United Airlines start-ed with a fee to check a second bag last year, and

other carriers followed. The wave of international bag fees got started July 1 when Delta began charg-ing to check a second bag between the U.S. and Europe.

By limiting baggage fees to domestic flights, the U.S. carriers left out a huge chunk of their traffic. More than half of Continental’s traffic this year has been international. At Delta, which started the move toward international bag fees, almost 39 percent of its traffic is international.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Secretary of State Hillary Clinton says she doesn’t believe Iran can convince the U.S. and other world powers that its nuclear program is for peaceful purposes, putting Tehran on course for tougher economic penalties beyond the current “leaky sanctions.”

Defense Secretary Robert Gates played down the effec-tiveness of military strikes against Iran’s newly disclosed secret uranium-enriching facility. Gates and Clinton said economic and diplomatic pressure would have a better chance of changing Iranian policies.

“The reality is, there is no military option that does anything more than buy time,” he told CNN’s “State of the Union” in an interview broadcast Sunday.

“The Iranians are in a very bad spot now because of this deception, in terms of all of the great powers. And there obviously is the opportunity for severe additional sanc-tions.”

The nuclear program, which Iran claims is designed to generate electricity, is at the top of the agenda at a meet-ing Thursday in Geneva involving diplomats from Iran, the U.S., Britain, France, Russia, China and Germany.

The Iranians must “present convincing evidence as to the purpose of their nuclear program. We don’t believe that they can present convincing evidence, that it’s only for peaceful purposes, but we are going to put them to the test,” Clinton told CBS’ “Face the Nation.”

She told the Iranian government: “Don’t assert it, prove it. ... They can’t say anything because they’ve said that for years, but they can open their entire system to the kind of extensive investigation that the facts call for.”

“If we don’t get the answers that we are expecting and the changes in behavior that we’re looking for, then we will work with our partners to move toward sanctions,” Clinton added.

Tensions grew with the announcement Sunday that Iran successfully test-fired short-range missiles during military drills by the elite Revolutionary Guard.

Gates emphasized China’s key role in winning additional penalties against Iran. The five permanent members of the U.N. Security Council, including China, would have to agree to new sanctions. The United States, Britain and France support additional economic conditions and Russia now appears favorable.

William Safire is dead at 79NEW YORK (AP) — Pulitzer Prize-winning conserva-

tive columnist, language expert and former White House speechwriter William Safire has died. He was 79.

His assistant Rosemary Shields says Safire died Sunday morning at a Maryland hospice. She says he had been diagnosed with cancer.

Safire spent more than 30 years writing on the Op-Ed page of The New York Times. In his “On Language” col-umn in The New York Times Magazine and 15 books, Safire traced the origins of words and everyday phrases.

As a speechwriter in the Nixon White House, Safire

penned Vice President Spiro Agnew’s famous phrase, “nattering nabobs of negativism.”

FBI releases bombing tapesOKLAHOMA CITY (AP) — The FBI has released long-

secret security tapes showing the chaos immediately after the 1995 bombing of the Oklahoma City federal building.

The soundless recordings show people rushing from nearby buildings after the fertilizer bomb went off. They don’t show the actual explosion outside the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building.

The tapes were obtained by an attorney and provided to The (Oklahoma City) Oklahoman, the newspaper reported Sunday.

New York wants tougher securityNEW YORK (AP) — The arrest last week of former coffee

vendor Najibullah Zazi on charges of plotting to attack New York City gives added urgency to the city’s pleas for federal funding to deter nuclear attacks, Mayor Bloomberg and area lawmakers said Sunday.

“Despite the incredible job the NYPD is doing, our city does remain a prime target for terrorists,” Bloomberg said.

16 Comics

Dear Annie: After being a widow for four years, I recently became engaged to “Dennis,” a wonderful man who lost his wife two years ago. They had been married 42 years.

Recently, Dennis and I had a big argument over his profile still being on several singles websites. He claims I’m being paranoid by asking him to remove it. He says all e-mails from these sites go into his spam file and he deletes them. If that’s true, how come his profile says “active within the last seven days”? He also told me he doesn’t know how to delete his profile.

My intuition tells me he is not ready for a commitment. I feel like a temporary stop until something better comes along. I do love this man, and he claims to love me. I have expressed my feel-ings on this matter several times, and he always turns the subject around. This is a matter of trust. Am I wrong? -- Confused in Freedom

Dear Confused: No. It sounds as if Dennis is trying to pull the wool over your eyes to the fact that he is still out there looking. Call his bluff. Tell him if he is serious about a relationship with you, he must remove his profile from these sites within 24 hours. Then offer to delete his profile for him if he “doesn’t know how.” If he gives you a hard time, we urge you to call off the engagement. He’s not ready, and you will only be hurt.

Dear Annie: My hus-band’s sister came from the East Coast to visit us

for three days. She was the perfect guest. She brought lovely hostess gifts, took us out to dinner and was off again before we knew it.

After she left, I went into the guest room to gather the bedding to launder and found a brief note thanking us for “everything.” Included in the note was some cash. I was surprised and offend-ed. About 10 years ago, my sister-in-law did the same thing, and I asked her to please never do that again, as her company and host-ess gifts were more than appreciated.

Though I’ve known this woman for 57 years and do not believe she intended anything unkind in her gift, it upset me quite a bit. Am I being too sensitive? I am about to return the money with a note admon-ishing her. Please advise. -- Stewing in the West

Dear Stewing: Since your sister-in-law didn’t mean anything unkind, please don’t admonish her. Instead, return her money with a sweet note, telling her how much you enjoyed her visit and what a per-fect guest she was. (If she sends it back, donate the money to charity in her name.)

Dear Annie: Your advice to “Unsure Daughter” was right on target. She has been estranged from her alco-holic father for five years, and has now received

the message that Dad is dying and wants to make amends. As you said, “You will grieve for your father one way or the other, so you may as well give him the opportunity to atone.”

Not only will she feel better before her father passes, she will be far less likely to suffer a severe and protracted period of depression after her father’s death. Those sur-vivors who are left with unresolved conflict with, and anger toward, a dec-eased relative are at high risk of depression. It is normal and unavoidable to experience a period of sadness and mourning after the loss of a parent, even an estranged one. That sadness eases with time and differs greatly from the experience of those who fail to come to peace with their dying relative. -- Experienced It

Dear Experienced: Thank you for expressing it so well.

Dear Readers: Today is Family Day (casafami-lyday.org). Studies show that children who eat din-ner with their parents have a reduced risk of substance abuse. Please try to make meals a family event.
