New Book by Jack Darnell<br />
Yvette Autin Warren<br />
The Winds of November, the much-awaited second<br />
collection of short stories by Jack Darnell is now available;<br />
this one also includes his poetry.<br />
He has published with a variation on his name as author,<br />
H. Jack Darnell. This is in response to the friendship<br />
he's formed with another published author by the<br />
name of Jack Darnell. He simply wanted to keep confusion<br />
out of the process, and the H. is for Howard, his<br />
father, to whom the book is dedicated.<br />
The Winds of November is available through Jack,<br />
and through Amazon.com.<br />
A Day of Memory<br />
© 2011 H. Jack Darnell<br />
I took a sunny summer day,<br />
And pressed it to my heart to stay,<br />
'Til memory's strings should sound<br />
And hidden thoughts are found.<br />
Some winter day that's dark and cold,<br />
And all the world is looking old,<br />
Then those memories hidden away<br />
Will brighten up the darkest day.<br />
I close my eyes and I can see<br />
Daisies blooming just for me.<br />
I hear the sound of buzzing bees,<br />
Gathering nectar, flying free.<br />
There's something in the air I smell,<br />
So faintly I can hardly tell.<br />
Is it the smell of a summer's day,<br />
The day I saved and lay away?<br />

Syrian government<br />
forces fired live rounds<br />
and tear gas on thousands<br />
of persons marching in a<br />
funeral procession that<br />
turned into a protest<br />
against Damascus on Saturday,<br />
killing one individual<br />
and wounding several<br />
others in what a reporter<br />
called “one of the largest<br />
demonstrations in the<br />
capital” since the uprising<br />
against President Bashar<br />
al-Assad began 11 months<br />
ago. The protest, which<br />
involved 15,000 to 30,000<br />
Syrians, took place less<br />
than a mile from al-Assad’s<br />
palace.<br />
Pope Benedict XVI inducted<br />
22 men into the<br />

cardinals on Saturday, including<br />
New York’s Archbishop<br />
Timothy Dolan,<br />
who has been named repeatedly<br />
in the past as a<br />
possible successor to the<br />
pontiff. Benedict, 85, elevated<br />

Two Iranian warships<br />
moved through the Suez<br />
Canal and into the<br />
Mediterranean Sea on Saturday,<br />
the second-only<br />
time the country’s navy<br />
had made the passage<br />
since the 1979 Islamic<br />
Revolution. The action<br />
followed last year’s February<br />
22 action through the<br />
canal and brought immediate<br />
response from Israel,<br />
which put its own navy on<br />
alert in response.<br />
Meanwhile, on Saturday,<br />
Britain’s foreign minister<br />
said an attack on Iran<br />
would carry huge costs<br />
and he preferred to allow<br />
more time to permit<br />
diplomacy and economic<br />
pressure to run its course<br />
with regard to the country’s<br />
controversial nuclear<br />
program. Tensions have<br />
running high, said William<br />
Hague, as Israel has accused<br />
Iran of attacking its<br />
diplomats in Thailand and<br />
Georgia.<br />
Meanwhile, back home<br />
in Tehran, government officials<br />
said an estimated<br />
16,000 computers in the<br />
country fell victim in 2010<br />
Tellico Pride 253-3303<br />
to the Stuxnet virus after<br />
it targeted the Islamic Republic’s<br />
nuclear facilities<br />
and other industrial sites,<br />
striking a limited number<br />
of centrifuges. Iran said its<br />
scientists discovered and<br />
neutralized the malware<br />
before it caused serious<br />
damage.<br />
Japanese Emperor Tsugunomiya<br />
Akihito underwent<br />
successful heart<br />
bypass surgery at the University<br />
of Tokyo on Saturday<br />
and was recovering<br />
despite poor health in recent<br />
months and several<br />
hospitalizations last year.<br />
The 78-year-old ceremonial<br />
but revered figure has<br />
minimal involvements in<br />
the day-to-day operations<br />
of the country’s government.<br />
Experts and attorneys<br />
representing survivors of<br />
the capsized Costa Concordia<br />
cruise ship said on<br />
Saturday that traces of cocaine<br />
were found on a<br />
sample of the ship’s captain’s<br />
hair. The drug was<br />
not found in his hair or in<br />
his urine, which would<br />
have indicated he used the<br />
substance sometime close<br />
to the moment when he<br />
ran the huge vessel<br />
aground near a Tuscan island<br />
the night of January<br />
13. And the elusive planet<br />
that the famed scientist<br />
Copernicus never saw will<br />
give residents of the<br />
Northern Hemisphere “a<br />
February 20, 2012<br />
very fine window of opportunity”<br />
to see it, beginning<br />
on Wednesday,<br />
according to NBC <strong>News</strong><br />
on Saturday. Hard to see,<br />
and harder still to find,<br />
since its orbit is closer to<br />
the Sun than to Earth,<br />
Mercury will line up beside<br />
Venus and Jupiter and<br />
will shine almost as bright<br />
as Sirius, the brightest star<br />
in the sky. Look west at<br />
twilight, the rest is easy.<br />

According to the<br />
White House on Friday,<br />
the United States’ economy<br />
is “on the road to recovery,”<br />
with stronger job<br />
growth expected this year,<br />
even though income inequality<br />
and Europe’s debt<br />
crisis could pose challenges,<br />
President Obama<br />
said. The administration<br />
released its 446-page Economic<br />
Report of the President,<br />
which outlines a<br />
plan to “recover, rebalance,<br />
and rebuild.”<br />
A day earlier, on Thursday,<br />
the U.S. Postal Service<br />
released its five-year plan<br />
to Congress, a move said<br />
to be a push for legislation<br />
to assist the service<br />
through its ongoing financial<br />
woes and a $3.3-billion<br />
loss in the final three<br />
months of 2011. The plan<br />
suggests cutting home delivery<br />
from six days a week<br />
to five, close thousands of<br />
post offices across the nation,<br />
and raise the price of<br />
a postage stamp to 50<br />
cents.<br />
On Friday, after weeks<br />
of laborious negotiations,<br />
Congress passed a $143<br />
billion package to extend<br />
a payroll tax cut and unemployment<br />
insurance<br />
through the end of 2012, a<br />
move that would provide<br />
each average American<br />
household an extra $1,000<br />
and five million persons<br />
with continued unemployment<br />
benefits. Left<br />
out of the package were<br />
suggested mandatory drug<br />
testing and GED programs<br />
for the unemployed.<br />
The Republican Party<br />
said on Saturday that<br />
Obama’s 2013 budget,<br />
which proposes $4 trillion<br />
NATiONWiDE<br />
in deficit reduction over<br />
the coming decade while<br />
investing billions more in<br />
programs to spur economic<br />
development, was a<br />
“road map to Greece.”<br />
Representative Cathy Mc-<br />
Morris Rodgers said<br />
Obama’s stimulus package<br />
three years ago promised<br />
to drop unemployment<br />
below eight percent,<br />
adding that it then peaked<br />
at ten percent and now is<br />
at 8.3 percent.<br />
Crude oil prices rose<br />
for a third straight day on<br />
Friday, topping $103 per<br />
barrel while remaining on<br />
track for a second consecutive<br />
week of gains, according<br />
to oil analysts,<br />
who added that drivers are<br />
already seeing pump prices<br />
rise by an average of 12<br />

Governor Chris Christie<br />
on Friday followed<br />
through on his promise to<br />
reject a bill allowing samesex<br />
marriages in the state,<br />
vetoing a measure a day<br />
after the state Assembly<br />
passed the bill. In returning<br />
the bill to the Legislature,<br />
Christie reaffirmed<br />
his view that voters were<br />
free to change the definition<br />
of marriage.<br />
Child Trends, a Washington<br />
research group, reported<br />
in The New York<br />
Times on Saturday that<br />
half of all births to American<br />
women under 30 years<br />
of age occur outside marriage.<br />
What was once<br />
largely limited to poor females<br />
and minorities has<br />
now settled deeply into<br />
middle America but the<br />
fastest growth in the past<br />
two decades is happening<br />
among white women in<br />
their 20s whom have some<br />
college education but no<br />
four-year degree.<br />

The first two-and-ahalf<br />
days will be all workshop,<br />
followed by a Job<br />
Fair Wednesday, February<br />
29, starting at 1 p.m.<br />
This will mark the 20th<br />
such Workshop and Job<br />
Fair held across <strong>Tennessee</strong>.<br />
Officials are enthusiastic<br />
about what they’ve been<br />
able to do for Guard<br />
members, reservists, veterans<br />
and spouses over the<br />
past 15 months.<br />
“It’s a terrific opportunity<br />
for military who have<br />
returned from deployment<br />
as well as for all veterans,”<br />
said Marvin Wells,<br />
National Guard Bureau<br />
Employer Support Specialist.<br />
“They will finish<br />
with a resume in hand and<br />
get the chance to speak<br />
with numerous employers<br />
on the concluding day of<br />
the workshop.<br />
The program focuses<br />
on analyzing skills veterans<br />
have attained through<br />
the military, strengths and<br />
weaknesses, effective job<br />
search strategies, writing<br />
resumes/cover letters, and<br />
mock interviews; also approaching<br />
the job- search<br />
process, researching companies,<br />
analyzing want ads<br />
and completing application<br />
forms.<br />
It is not limited to persons<br />
unemployed but to<br />
those who might also feel<br />
underemployed.<br />
“Employers like to hire<br />
veterans because they<br />
bring a work ethic that<br />
most others don’t possess,”<br />
explained John<br />
Alexander, Veterans Employment<br />
Representative<br />
with the State Dept. of<br />
Labor and Workforce Development.<br />
“They show<br />
up on time, they understand<br />
what’s expected of<br />
them, and they don’t wait<br />
around to be told every<br />
single thing. Just their<br />
entry-level military training<br />
still puts them ahead<br />
of almost everyone else.”<br />

Lady Wildcats Take on Polk<br />
<strong>County</strong> in First Round of Districts<br />
Ferocious Comeback Comes Up Short in Fourth<br />
Tulli Cole<br />
The era of tournaments<br />
and rivalry match-ups, the<br />
beginning of high school’s<br />
own version of March<br />
Madness, has finally arrived.<br />
The first round of<br />
the District 5-AA Tournament<br />
played out on the<br />
basketball-coliseum of<br />
McMinn <strong>County</strong> on<br />
Thursday night, February<br />
17. <strong>Monroe</strong> <strong>County</strong>’s very<br />
own Lady Wildcats of<br />
Sweetwater faced off<br />
against their longtime opponents,<br />
the Wildkittens<br />
of Polk <strong>County</strong>, hoping to<br />
take a win and move on in<br />
the tournament. A slow<br />
start allowed their opponents<br />
to take a weighty<br />
lead, but the Lady Wildcats<br />
refused to given in.<br />
They rallied, fighting<br />
tooth and claw back into<br />

the game, matching their<br />
challengers point for<br />
point. In the end, however,<br />
the comeback fell<br />
just short, and the Lady<br />
Wildcats lost a true nailbiter.<br />
The Wildkittens<br />
caught the ball at tip-off,<br />
but their opening shot did<br />
not draw net. R. Thomasson<br />
snagged the defensive<br />
rebound on the other end<br />
of the floor, preventing<br />
any further attempts and<br />
allowing the Lady Wildcats<br />
their own shot at the<br />
old iron. Though the first<br />
stab did not fall, C.<br />
Grayson caught the offensive<br />
rebound and then<br />
caught R. Jefford, who<br />
drove to the basket for the<br />
pair of points.<br />
But those points were<br />
the last the Lady Wildcats<br />
found for some time. Polk<br />
<strong>County</strong> enjoyed an 8-0<br />
run to pull ahead with the<br />
lead, and even put away a<br />
last second foul shot to<br />
end the first.<br />
The Lady Wildcats<br />
only managed one more<br />
bucket in the first, courtesy<br />
of a steal by Jefford<br />
that turned into the basket<br />
in question.<br />
The score at the end of<br />
the first quarter was 4-12.<br />
The Wildkittens<br />
opened the second quarter<br />
with possession of the basketball,<br />
but tough defense<br />
by N. Burgess and Jefford<br />
forced a turnover. Unfor-<br />

tunately, Sweetwater was<br />
unable to convert on the<br />
offensive end, and it was<br />
Polk <strong>County</strong> who nabbed<br />
the first points of the<br />
quarter—a pair of foul<br />
shots. The Wildkittens<br />
soon scored yet again,<br />
thanks to a second-chance<br />
opportunity.<br />
But B. Mashburn was<br />
quick to respond to the<br />
three points with a triple<br />
of her own. She put away<br />
a three-pointer. She lathered,<br />
rinsed, and repeated<br />
not long afterward,<br />
matching a Wildkitten’s<br />
bucket with one of her<br />
own.<br />
With Mashburn’s<br />
points came a surge on the<br />
part of the Lady Wildcats<br />
team as a whole. Though<br />
foul trouble gave the<br />
Wildkittens several trips<br />
to the line, Sweetwater<br />
met Polk <strong>County</strong> point for<br />
point. A. Bowden’s hustle<br />
paved the way to a pair of<br />
free-throws during two<br />
trips to the line, as well as<br />
a banked-in three and a<br />
two-point bucket. Jefford<br />
also nailed a three, and S.<br />
Ervin put away two free<br />
throws after being fouled<br />
on a put-back attempt.<br />
Jefford’s had the final<br />
points of the quarters, her<br />
free-throws drawing<br />
Sweetwater to within 7.<br />
The score at halftime<br />
was 23-30.<br />

with possession of the basketball,<br />
but they hit another<br />
cold spell. For nearly<br />
4 minutes, they struggled<br />
offensively, while Polk<br />
<strong>County</strong> ran away in a 6-0<br />
run.<br />
Bowden ended the<br />
run—and her team’s cold<br />
spell—with a basket, and<br />
it was a herald of things to<br />
come. The Lady Wildcats<br />
were incredibly aggressive<br />
and efficient in the final<br />
minutes of the third,<br />
outscoring their district rivals<br />
11 points to 2. The<br />
points—courtesy of Bowden,<br />
Ervin, and Jefford—<br />
cut the lead to single digits<br />
yet again, with Sweetwater<br />
even closer than before.<br />
The Lady Wildcats’ defense<br />
even prevented a last<br />
drive by Polk <strong>County</strong>.<br />
The score at the end of<br />
the third quarter was 34-<br />
38.<br />
The Wildkittens won<br />
the first 5 points of the<br />
fourth quarter, but the<br />
Lady Wildcats once again<br />
rallied. N. Burgess put<br />
away a bucket to open the<br />
comeback, and she was<br />
soon followed by a teamup<br />
play by Mashburn and<br />
Ervin. A. Myers caught<br />
Bowden, who drove to the<br />
basket for a duo of points,<br />
and Ervin nabbed net to<br />
put the Lady Wildcats to<br />
within 3.<br />
A Sweetwater turnover<br />
led to two free throws by<br />
the Wildkittens, but Jefford<br />
quickly matched<br />
those with a steal and a<br />
basket. Much the same<br />
happened later in the<br />
quarter, when Bowden<br />
matched two Polk <strong>County</strong><br />
free throws with a pair of<br />
her own. With a little over<br />
a minute to play, the Lady<br />
Wildcats’ hustle had ensured<br />
a one-possession<br />
game: (46-49).<br />
But foul trouble for<br />
Sweetwater returned, and<br />
those trips to the line gave<br />
Polk <strong>County</strong> the advantage<br />
it needed. Although<br />
Ervin and N. Burgess<br />
combined for 4 points<br />
(Burgess’ even being the<br />
final play of the night), the<br />
Wildkittens scored 8<br />
points on foul shot attempts,<br />
allowing them to<br />
stay just out of Sweetwater’s<br />
reach.<br />
The final score was 50-<br />
57.<br />
Scoring for the Lady<br />
Wildcats were: A. Bowden<br />
(17), R. Jefford (14), S.<br />
Ervin (10), B. Mashburn<br />

Chiefs Take First Round in District Tournament<br />
Allen Roberts<br />
The Sequoyah Chiefs<br />
came into the District<br />
5AA tournament as the<br />
number one seed and they<br />
showed why they were top<br />
guns, taking care of the<br />
fourth-seeded Meigs<br />
<strong>County</strong> Tigers to advance<br />
to the upcoming championship<br />
game. Meigs<br />
jumped out early, but Sequoyah<br />
found its game<br />
and pulled away in the second<br />
half, taking the victory<br />
82-65.<br />
The first period saw the<br />
Tigers come out of the<br />
gates red hot, building an<br />
early lead, but the Chiefs<br />
responded toward the end<br />
of the frame, Taylor<br />
Hawkins drilled a threepointer<br />
and had a lay-up<br />
for five points, Trey Dyer<br />
made two buckets and a<br />
free throw giving him five<br />
points. Lucas Watson<br />
nailed a three-pointer, Andrew<br />
Millsaps had a basket<br />
for two points, and<br />
Jacob Coon tossed in a<br />
free throw, and at the end<br />
of the first quarter, the<br />
Chiefs led 16-14.<br />
The Chiefs continued<br />
to build on that lead in the<br />
second period, outscoring<br />
the Tigers 19-1. Watson<br />
had three baskets and a<br />
free throw for seven<br />
points, Hawkins drilled<br />
two treys for six points,<br />
Tevin West had a basket<br />
and a free throw for three<br />
points, Coon scored two<br />

points, and Dyer made a<br />
free throw for a point, and<br />
at the half, Sequoyah led<br />
35-27.<br />
The third period saw<br />
Sequoyah’s offense take<br />
over as the Chiefs<br />
outscored Meigs 28-19.<br />
West nailed a threepointer,<br />
two lay-ups, and<br />
two free throws, giving<br />
him nine points. Watson<br />
had three baskets and<br />
three free throws for nine<br />
points. Millsaps hit a trey<br />
and a lay-up for five<br />
points, Hawkins tossed in<br />
three free throws, and<br />
Coon made two free<br />
throws, and at the end of<br />
three, the Chiefs had extended<br />
their lead to 63-46.<br />
The Tigers tried to rally<br />
in the fourth period, scoring<br />
19 points, but the<br />
Chiefs matched that effort,<br />
posting 19 points<br />

ACROSS FROM WIL-SAV<br />
together of rivals, and such<br />
was the case Thursday<br />
night at McMinn <strong>County</strong><br />
High School. The Wildcats<br />
of Sweetwater took<br />
on another breed of jungle<br />
cat: a squad of Meigs<br />
<strong>County</strong> Tigers. But despite<br />
a fierce, high-energy<br />
first half, poor rebounding,<br />
a stumbling third quarter,<br />
and turnovers ultimately<br />
doomed the Wildcats’<br />
chances, and they fell to<br />
the Tigers.<br />
The duo of squads exchanged<br />
blows on and off<br />
and on equal footing during<br />
the first quarter. The<br />
Tigers were the first to<br />
snag a bucket, off a second-chance<br />
opportunity,<br />
but the Wildcats were not<br />
far behind: Brandon Clark<br />
hustled to return a rebound<br />
for a bucket, and<br />
Jhamarus Brewster nailed<br />
a swishing three-pointer.<br />
A lack of rebounding<br />
on Sweetwater’s part allowed<br />
Meigs <strong>County</strong> to<br />
nab their next 4 points,<br />
but the Wildcats improved<br />
on that end of the<br />
game as the quarter continued.<br />

SWEETWATER<br />
LOCATED ACROSS FROM KMART<br />
Massengil, Clark, and<br />
Brewster outgunned the<br />
Tigers, granting the Wildcats<br />
a tenuous lead at the<br />
end of one quarter of play.<br />
The score was 16-14.<br />
Sweetwater opened the<br />
second quarter with possession,<br />
and their first<br />
drive resulted in a basket<br />
by Curtis Badiu. The<br />
Tigers briefly took back<br />
the lead, following two<br />
buckets and a foul shot,<br />
but Brewster helped the<br />
Wildcats pull ahead once<br />
again with a duo of points<br />
of his own.<br />
As the quarter ticked<br />
away, the Wildcats managed<br />
to hold on to their<br />
lead despite another small<br />
lead change. Alex Miller<br />
put away a pair of free<br />
throws, and soon afterward<br />
made a steal that<br />
transformed into another<br />
basket. Clark and Brewster<br />
also snagged a combined<br />
4 points.<br />
However, Sweetwater<br />
gave the Tigers several second-chances<br />
on the offensive<br />
end, allowing Meigs<br />
<strong>County</strong> to hang around,<br />
and perhaps too close to<br />
comfort.<br />

The score at halftime<br />
was 28-26.<br />
The Tigers ripped and<br />
roared in the third,<br />
outscoring the Wildcats 19<br />
to 8.<br />
On their opening drive<br />
of the quarter, a Tiger not<br />
only made a three-pointer,<br />
he was also fouled. His<br />
successful trip to the line<br />
gave Meigs <strong>County</strong> the<br />
lead once more, and they<br />
would score 4 more points<br />
(one bucket off a Sweetwater<br />
turnover) before<br />
Sweetwater could respond,<br />
when Massengil returned<br />
a rebound for a<br />
bucket.<br />
Massengil caught another<br />
rebound soon afterward.<br />
He was fouled in the<br />
put-back, and was able to<br />
sink a free throw while at<br />
the line. The Tigers were<br />
quick to respond to the<br />
points, however; they won<br />
two unanswered baskets—a<br />
two-point bucket,<br />
and a three-pointer off another<br />
Sweetwater<br />
turnover. Brewster and<br />
Clark together managed<br />
to match the 5-0 run with<br />
individual drives, but the<br />
Tigers fought for another<br />
Page 15 - The BUZZ<br />
6 points to retain their<br />
lead.<br />
The score at the end of<br />
the third quarter was 36-<br />
45. The Wildcats were the<br />
first to draw metaphorical<br />
blood in the final quarter,<br />
thanks to a basket by<br />
Brewster, but the Tigers<br />
were able to hold on to<br />
their lead with 4 more<br />
points.<br />
The Wildcats struggled<br />
offensively throughout the<br />
fourth quarter, and had little<br />
to no second-chances<br />
at the net during their<br />
possessions. Compounding<br />
their troubles were<br />
their rebounding woes and<br />
a couple of costly<br />
turnovers.<br />
In the end, even points<br />
by Massengil and Badiu<br />
(which cut the Tiger lead<br />
to 8, at one point), as well<br />
as steal a piece for Massengil<br />
and Miller, were not<br />
enough to help stem the<br />
tide, and the Tigers walked<br />
away with the victory.<br />
The final score was 48-<br />
62.<br />
Scoring for the Wildcats<br />
were: Jhamarus Brewster<br />
(18), Thomas<br />
Massengil (13), Brandon<br />
Clark (7), Curtis Badiu (6),<br />
and Alex Miller (4).<br />

roe <strong>County</strong> Sheriff’s detective’s<br />
division with the<br />
Class B felony violation of<br />
initiating the process to<br />
manufacture methamphetamine<br />
was Jeffery<br />
Wayne Miller, 40, of Reed<br />
Springs Road.<br />
The detective division<br />
reported a dispatch to an<br />
active meth lab at Miller’s<br />
home, where Sheriff’s Sergeant<br />
James Wall had arrived<br />
earlier and flushed a<br />
male into nearby woods<br />
who was identified as<br />
Mark West.<br />
Wall said he had<br />
knocked on the door of an<br />
outbuilding on Miller’s<br />

property, an entreaty that<br />
was answered by a female<br />
identified as Brandi<br />
Sanchez, who was apparently<br />
inside the outbuilding.<br />
Wall told the detective<br />
division that he could see<br />
through the opened door<br />
what appeared to be a<br />
plastic bottle containing a<br />
chemical mix used in the<br />
manufacture of meth, and<br />
the smell, or fumes, coming<br />
off the apparatus was<br />
so strong and vehement<br />
that one deputy got sick.<br />
The detectives vouched<br />
for the odor, saying it was<br />
“strong.” The detectives,<br />
too, witnessed the bottle<br />
and its noxious chemical<br />
mixture.<br />
