Special to The Weekly

Longtime Collierville resident Cathy Armstrong loves to run.

She also loves to sup-port our nation’s military, in no small part, because her son, Christopher Bena-kovich, is in his third year of Army ROTC at the Uni-versity of Tennessee.

For the last two years he has been a volunteer for the Mountain Man Memo-rial March, an event where both civilians and those with military ailiations come together to raise money for economically-deprived military families who have lost loved ones

while serving their coun-try.

“The event was created eight years ago after a UT Army cadet graduate was killed in the line of duty during the Iraq War, and each year participation in the event has grown,” Armstrong said.

All money raised goes to family members chosen from each of the partici-pating ROTC Units. Arm-strong trained for three months with a goal of com-pleting the half-marathon in less than three hours.

Sprouts Farmers Market to open July 8

Sprouts Farmers Market will open its Germantown store on July 8, according to the company’s website.

The company con-irmed in an announce-ment earlier this month it was opening the location, along with seven others, mostly in Georgia and Texas.

Each store is expected to create about 100 jobs, according to a statement from the company.

The Germantown store, located at 3150 Village Shops Drive, will be in the old Schnucks grocery store building.

Fire dept. requests more staf, stations

The Collierville Fire Department is asking the town to add three ire-fighter positions to the department, and to look at relocating a ire station and adding two more on the south side of town.

Fire Chief Jerry Craw-ford said the ire depart-ment has 60 full-time ireighters, a number that has gone unchanged since 2004 despite call volume increasing 45 percent. The current staf also is aging, with 70 percent of ireighters over age 40 and more than half over 50.

While response times are still low, Crawford said, averaging 4 minutes and 58 seconds, the town’s growth has prompted the need for additional staf and reconiguration of its stations. The town has ive stations, but Crawford said the location of Fire Station 2 is a problem and it should be relocated.

Crawford, who pre-sented his short- and long-term needs to the Board of Mayor and Aldermen in a budget work session April 16, said the structure was built at least 40 years ago and was never meant to be a permanent station.

The Germantown Munici-pal School District will receive a $1.5 million loan through an agreement with the city, pend-ing approval from the Board of Mayor and Aldermen and the state.

The school board approved the agreement during a busi-

ness meeting Monday.Supt. Jason Manuel said the

loan would be interest-free, a contrast to the $90,000 of inter-est the school district has paid to the city in the last year.

The city loaned the school district $8 million for its irst year through a revenue-an-ticipatory note that was also approved by the state. City Administrator Patrick Lawton said the school district only used $3.8 million of that, and has paid it back in full, plus the interest.

Manuel said the $1.5 million

is to help the district bridge the time between the opening of school next year and when the district actually sees property tax dollars.

“The way that money comes into the system creates a cash-low issue,” he said.

Manuel said the loans are necessary because the district started with no reserves. In the last year, the district built up a reserve of about $2.1 million.

Lawton said he expected the district to need the loan, and had actually expected it to take the district up to three or four

years to pay back the $8 million from last year.

“That’s just good manage-ment on their part,” he said.

In other business, the school board tabled a vote on whether to join the Tennessee School Board Association financial trust that has been set up for districts and municipalities to invest their retirement beneit reserves. All school districts and local governments by 2017 have to have a plan to prefund their other postemployment beneits.

The school district has the

option of setting up its owntrust or joining the TSBA trustthat has already been createdand will be managed for a rateof a quarter of one percent ofwhatever the district invests.

Manuel recommended in awork session that the districtjoin the trust in an efort to savetime and money setting up aseparate trust. Board members,however, were concerned aboutbeing a minority investor andnot having enough say abouthow the money was invested.As a result, the issue was takenof Monday’s agenda.

City to lend municipal school district 1.5 million

The litter bugged Collierville Mayor Stan Joyner. He knew he had to do something about what he was seeing along Tenn. 385.

“It had gotten so bad that basi-cally I couldn’t take it anymore,” he said.

He even pulled over one day to try, unsuccessfully, to remove from a tree a large piece of plas-tic he said was as “big as a para-chute.”

Joyner asked two department directors whether the town could send crews to clean up the high-way, only to hit a roadblock. It was the Tennessee Department of Transportation’s job because it’s a state highway.

So Public Services Director Bill Kilp contacted TDOT, which took action. Not only did it have a crew pick up the litter but it recently placed four large signs along 385 within the town’s boundar-ies warning about littering and threatening a ine of up to $3,000, the state maximum.

“I hope people will notice them and heed the warning,” Joyner said about the signs near exits for Forest Hill-Irene heading east and U.S. 72 west. “I think the $3,000 number looks good.”

Steve Lemmons, district assis-tant superintendent for TDOT’s Arlington oice, travels along 385 as often as twice a week. He agrees the trash had gotten worse in that stretch, but also perhaps was more noticeable because the grass was dormant. He notes a crew picks up litter about once a month year round, and in the spring and summer the grass will be mowed ive times. TDOT also dispatches a crew daily to pick up larger objects. County super-visors check the highway several times a week.

“We have a lot of garbage trucks that travel that route quite often, and a lot of it is being lost from those garbage trucks,” he said.

Kilp said he has contacted the area’s waste haulers requesting supervisors tell drivers to “tarp their loads.” Also, the Collierville Police Department has been ad-vised, he said, to be on the alert for littering. Citations also can be given by the Tennessee Highway Patrol and Shelby County sher-

if’s deputies. Joyner called on citizens to report trucks shed-ding trash.

“If we catch them, we’re going to ine them,” said Joyner.

Kilp said the town asked TDOT about taking over the litter control of its 385 stretch, but learned a contract, including grass cutting, would be costly. He said discussions will continue.

Joyner said he was hopeful civ-ic groups and other service orga-nizations could adopt stretches, but the town was advised that isn’t allowed on a limited-access highway as it is on such state routes as Poplar and U.S. 72. The state recently agreed to turn over to Collierville the maintenance of the median along the Jimmy Lott Parkway stretch of U.S. 72, named for a longtime alderman who died in January.

Opinion is divided on whether there’s less litter in the month since the signs were posted along 385.

Lemmons believes there’s been improvement. Joyner says it’s better but “still not perfect.”

“What I would like for people to perceive as they are driving 385,” Joyner said, “is that Col-lierville between our city limits would be the cleanest part of 385, not the most littered part.”

Germantown Police Reports

well as prepare the dance loor and dinner area — adding colorful table-top-pers and decorations.

Later, many of the vol-unteers returned to act as escorts and dance partners for the students.

Nine years ago, Mi-chelle Kelley, a special education assistant at Collierville High School, came up with an idea that led to the irst prom.

“Baby steps” was the way Kelley described the process.

The irst prom was held at CHS for students en-rolled in the school’s spe-cial education program. After the irst event, the staf was excited by the way the students, parents, teachers and staf respond-ed.

Riding the wave of suc-cess of the event’s irst iter-ation, the prom committee decided to open the dance to all students.

During dinner, students were serenaded by Skylar Newman, Ronnie Guzman and Bennett Poorman, all

members of CHS’ orches-tra. They played a selec-tion of what they agreed was “dinner music.”

Following a bufet din-ner, featuring food donat-ed by local restaurants, the 120 students from seven area high schools heard the music booming from DJ Tyrone Mosby’s speak-ers and it was a race to get on to the dance loor.

But it wasn’t just the kids out there — teachers joined in as well. Louie Johnson, from Southwind, led a group of his kids to Bruno Mars’ hit, “Uptown Funk,” while Suzy Di-rof, from Houston High School, danced with her students and Germantown High’s Emmanuel Lewis.

Even parents couldn’t resist cutting a rug, as El-lyn Mooneyham began dancing with her daugh-ter, Jillian, who attends Collierville High.

As the night wore on and the songs “YMCA,” “The Cupid Shule,” and many more illed the gym, there was no let down on the dance loor.

Josh Nichols dedicated himself to overseeing the candy table. Nichols stood

proudly by his table with a smile on his face and of-fered candy to everyone who attended. For Nich-ols, this night was one in which he could be proud to say he lent a hand.

Erin Rhodes, a teacher at Houston High, said, “This is an extremely important night for these kids and their families.”

Katie Carter, who also teaches at Houston, said employees from German-town Day Spa stopped by to pamper the girls by helping with hair and makeup.

Kelley added the prom couldn’t have happened without the help from the community and local busi-nesses.

“This is an event the whole community has gathered together to sup-port,” Kelley said. “The boys’ tuxes were provided by Men’s Wearhouse, the gym was donated by Col-lierville Parks Depart-ment, local restaurants provided the food. Land-ers Ford donated money to defray other expenses. This event was paid for by the community, and I want them all to know how

ceremony. “I was totally surprised

and quite moved to be standing on the podium in front of all those other runners and service peo-ple,” said Armstrong.

It was also special for her because Benakovich ran with his unit — all wearing full military gear, complete with 35-pound rucksacks on their backs. Armstrong admits the third place inish was an unexpected thrill, but the most rewarding aspect was seeing all the runners come together to support the military.

Collierville resident Kim MacFeggan, whose husband is in the military, is Armstrong’s best friend. MacFeggan made the trip not expecting to run, but decided to participate in the 10K, inishing in 90 minutes.

“I will most deinitely participate again next year,” Armstrong said.

From snapping-turtle hunter Ernie Brown Jr. to NASCAR driver Tony Stewart to country mu-sician John “Seminole Wind” Anderson, Bass Pro Shops at The Pyramid’s grand opening will serve up a smorgasbord of stars.

The retailer will rely on more than two dozen people well known in their fields as part of a special push to cultivate a nation-al image for a riverfront arena being turned into a $100 million-plus tourist attraction.

The Missouri-based re-tailer announced the ce-lebrity list on April 16.

Bass-fishing legend Bill Dance and Kiara Young, 2015 Miss Tennessee USA, will appear when the outdoor goods super-store opens with Evening for Conservation from 6-9 p.m. April 29. Fifty cents of each dollar spent will be donated to Ducks Unlim-ited and other conserva-tion causes.

Admission is free, but some attractions will have fees, including admittance to The Lookout, an obser-vation deck at the build-ing’s upper level. It will cost $10 a person, or $5 for children until 4 p.m. Guests can buy an annual pass for $100.

Bass Pro warned that the parking lot is expected to fill up early in the open-ing days, but said the city plans to operate free shut-tles from remote parking lots at peak times.

Brown, host of Animal Planet’s “Call of the Wild-

man;” Dance, of NBC Sports Networks’ “Bill Dance Outdoors;” and Stewart are among the celebrities who help open retail, entertainment and dining facilities in the city-owned former sports and entertainment arena.

Other luminaries of hunting, fishing, outdoors and sports scheduled to be on hand include:

■ University of Missis-sippi football coach Hugh Freeze.

■ Professional billiards star Jeanette “The Black Widow” Lee.

■ Competitive shooter Doug Koenig.

■ Phillip Crowe, award-winning wildlife artist representing Ducks Un-limited.

■ Fred Zink, Zink Calls/Avian-X Decoys owner.

■ Buck Gardner, world champion duck caller and founder of Buck Gardner Calls.

■ Jimmy Houston, host of World Fishing Net-work’s “Jimmy Houston

Outdoors.” ■ Rob Keck, RedHead

Pro Hunting team mem-ber and host of “Bass Pro Shops Outdoor World” ra-dio show.

■ Jerry Martin, Red-Head Head Pro Hunting team member and The Legends of the Outdoors Hall of Fame member.

■ John Stephens, duck calling world champion.

■ Brenda Valentine, first lady of hunting and RedHead Pro Hunting team member.

■ Kendall Newson, for-mer Miami Dolphin and Bass Pro Shops NITRO Pro Team member.

Special to The Weekly

On May 16, the Kyle W. Kiihnl Memorial Foundation will host the seventh annual Eye Opener 5K at Houston High School, be-ginning at 6 p.m.

The event serves as the group’s fundraiser and is a way to reach out to the public and tell them about the foundation’s cause.

The run is in memory of Kyle Kiihnl.

In 2002, Kiihnl, a 17-year-old Houston High student, lost his life to a driver who fell asleep at the wheel.

The sleeping driver, also 17,

drove onto the sidewalk where Kiihnl was walking.

While it was certainly a trag-edy for both families, the foun-dation has chosen to carry on Kiihnl’s legacy by educating drivers on the dangers of driv-ing while fatigued.

Kiihnl had received the award for Exceeding Expectations the previous month at the varsity wrestling banquet.

Foundation members began awarding its Kyle Kiihnl Memo-rial Scholarship, “Exceeding Ex-pectations,” in May 2003.

Since then, the group has pro-vided 16 college scholarships.

In 2014, the foundation began

ofering an additional scholar-ship opportunity. Its require-ments include writing an essay on one of three provided topics concerning fatigued driving, teacher recommendations and a qualifying GPA.

According to statistics provided by Tennessee De-partment of Transportation, drowsy driving is rampant in Shelby County. In 2011, there were 278 drowsy driving re-lated crashes and in 2012 there were 320. Last year, however, there was a marked decline with 297 crashes.

United Soccer Club had its oicial ribbon cutting at Faith Lutheran Church on the corner of Market Street and Byhalia Road.

The four teams and their families gathered to thank those who made it possible for the club to produce a class “A” soccer ield, which includes one 11 versus 11 ield, two 8 versus 8 ields, as well as a com-prehensive skills academy setup.

The facility and irri-gation was orchestrated by Ryan Garcia, owner of Agriscapes landscape and irrigation company.

Garcia’s daughter, Avery, plays for United SC. His expertise and hours of ser-vice is greatly appreciated.

None of this could have been possible without a $10,000 donation from Ben Ward, the grandfather of Molly and Maggie Ward, who both play for United. The rest of the funds were raised by the girls and boys themselves through vari-ous fundraising activities, including a 5K run.

This ield afords Unit-ed SC the opportunity to practice on their own time and around individ-ual schedules. The skills academy, which is always available, allows players to continue to build their

skills as often as they would like to. Head coach Keith Potts spoke of his gratitude to the United families for their dedica-tion to improvement and growing this soccer club.

Michelle Thompson is a United

Soccer Club team parent.

Young ladies with Girl Scout Troop 10305 recently earned the Girl Scout Sil-ver Award.

The Girl Scout Sil-ver Award is the highest award a girl can achieve at the Cadette level.

The girls must com-plete a “Journey” with a “take action project.” After their Journey, they begin the process of planning and executing their Silver Award Project.

Upon completion of their Journey, called “Breathe,” the girls with Troop 10305 explored and made observations in the community to ind issues they cared about. Once identiied, they put their plans into motion, asking themselves why this proj-ect matters and what they hoped to accomplish.

Troop members identi-ied germs and airborne viruses as their topic. They also identiied the use of toxic products as contributing factors to viral illnesses. The girls discovered that plants are often-overlooked helpers

in ridding the air of pollut-ants and toxins. They also felt that non-toxic clean-ing supplies would help in keeping the air clean and germ-free.

Each girl put together an eco-friendly fresh air kit they called “Eco-Freshe.” Each kit contained an all-purpose cleaner, furniture polish, an air freshener and hand sanitizer along with instructions for use.

All the products were made with natural, non-toxic ingredients. Each girl gave this kit to a teacher or community member with instructions and recipes attached so the recipient of the kit would pass it on.

The girls made global connections with their kits by posting on difer-ent websites such as Tak-ing It Global (tigweb.org) and Global Youth Service Day (globalyouthservice-day.org).

With the completion of their Girl Scout Silver Award, the girls encom-passed what is stated in the “Girl Scout Promise,” using resources wisely and making the world a better place.

MEMPHIS - You’ve heard the ads on radio or haveseen them in the paper. This Memphis Men’s Clinicclaiming their doctors can solve erectile dysfunction;even if others failed in the past.

Frankly, I ind these claims hard to believe.

I’ve been with the same family doctor 30 years. Myurologist is the best in Tennessee.

When my prostate cancer hit 5 years ago, my familydoctor and urologist recommended removal. I didn’targue. They are doctors after all. They assured me I’dbe able to perform in the bedroom after the surgery.

After the surgery, that was not the case. My urologistgave me Viagra, Cialis, and nothing worked. I triedthe pump and Caverject. Again no results just lots ofphysical and emotional pain.

MyFamilyDoctorSaidMyE.D.Was Incurable,There Was Nothing Anyone Could Do!

My wife was supportive. She told me it wasn’timportant to her and there were other “things” wecould do. Deep down inside I felt like less of a manand husband.

For 6 months, I heard the ads for the Memphis Men’sClinic and thought to myself. ”How can those doctorsat that Memphis Men’s Clinic, who don’t know me,make these claims to solve my E.D. in 12 minutes orless... for only $199?”

After discussing it with my wife, I igured what doI have to lose? Frankly, part of me wanted to provethose doctors wrong and blow the cover on the entirescam.

My wife booked an appointment - the day came -I wasnervous and angry. I didn’t want to be disappointedagain. To my amazement, the ofice staff wasprofessional, medically trained, and helped me relax.I met with the doctor and his trained medical staff. Hegave me the test dose.

I Felt Something I Hadn’t Felt In 5 Years!

In 12 minutes, “it” worked. My wife was in the roomand saw the results for herself. We were speechlessand excited! The doctor came back into the roomand I looked at him in disbelief. He explained it’s notmy doctor’s fault they failed in the past. Since this isthe clinic’s specialty they are able to help thousandsof men perform again, where others have failed, nomatter the cause of ED or PE issues.

Sure the medications are extra, but it’s cheaper thanthe pills your doctor prescribes for you... And thisworks!

My advice to you... call Memphis Men’s Clinic at901-443-0480. Tell them Alan sent you and beprepared for one of the biggest and best surprisesof your life.

As part of a third trimester project, the honors biology class at St. George’s Independent School recently trans-formed recyclable materials into playground enhance-ments for both lower school campuses.

The goal of the project was to show lower school stu-dents how they can re-purpose household items that oth-erwise might be recycled or simply discarded.

“It’s amazing to see what can be accomplished with innovation and creativity,” said honors biology teacher, Kalyn Underwood. “We have been studying trash islands in the ocean and the decomposition rates of overly used and trashed materials, like plastic bottles. Tasked with designing new uses for recyclable materials, the class exceeded every expectation and I’m so proud of what they accomplished.”

Honor students collected materials, designed struc-tures, surveyed teachers and students about the play-ground enhancements and made modiications to the structures based on feedback. Playground enhancements include playhouses with table and chairs, birdhouses, bottle cap curtains and planters.

There’s also a tunnel with windows and planters, a grocery store with a shopping cart, an outdoor checkers set, a hammock, a bookshelf with arts and crafts storage and a recycling bin. The structures can last 450 years.

Lainie Crose is the assistant director of marketing and communications

for St. George’s Independent School.

St. George’s lower school students delighted audiences with a thrilling performance of “Mulan,” the tale of a high-spirited girl who disguises herself as a man and takes her father’s place in battle. Despite facing many challenges, she defeats enemy invaders, saves the emperor and brings great honor to her family. The sizable cast included students in senior kindergarten through ifth grade.

St. George’s Independent School was proud to induct 56 middle school students into the National Junior Honor Society. Meet-ing the mem-bership criteria of scholarship, character, leadership, citizenship and service, these students were recognized during a for-mal induction ceremony be-fore parents, faculty, friends and class-mates.

PHOTOS COURTESY BASSETT FURNITURE

Navy plus pale gray with a touch of orange or red is a good color scheme for a boy’s room whether he’s 12 or 21. Avoid using shocking colors and themes which kids outgrow quickly making it necessary to redecorate often.

By Vicki PayneThe Charlotte Observer (TNS)

I spend a lot of time review-ing photos of all types of rooms _ some good, some bad. If I had to identify one group of rooms that generally fall into the bad category, it would have to be children’s rooms.

Why is it that everyone thinks you have to paint the walls some shocking, hot color and then add two or three intense, noncoordi-nating colors?

Children’s rooms should be decorated by the same rules and standards as the rest of the home. Work with neutrals and add touches of color for contrast and interest.

Consider using upholstered twin beds in a neutral color. The look will have appeal whether your child is 12 or 21.

Next, paint the walls a neu-tral color. This doesn’t mean limiting your choices to white or beige. You can still work with traditional colors such as blue and pink. I’m suggesting that you move away from shocking tones and try navy for boys and pale pink for girls.

Bedrooms should be calm-ing retreats regardless of your child’s age. Imagine trying to relax or study in a setting of hot pink and lime green or bright blue and ire engine red. Mix-ing navy with pale gray with touches of orange, green or red works for all ages. Furniture can be wood tone or painted navy, black or dark gray. Pink looks wonderful with beige, white and wood tones. It’s so chic and calming.

Fabrics are just as important as paint colors. Designs with action heroes and Barbie dolls

are a poor investment. Most kids change heroes way too fast. If your little ones are really die-hard fans, consider buying sheets that feature their latest craze. It’s much easier to swap out sheets than entire bedding ensembles, window treatments and wall murals.

Speaking of wall murals, don’t do it! First, it’s rare to see a mural that’s done well. Secondly, they are far too permanent. Consider instead a large wall-mounted bulletin board such as the ones sold at Pottery Barn. These make it easy to keep up with your kid’s latest passions.

There’s no need to invest in expensive framed artwork for the same reasons. Your children may be into cowboys this year and the Dallas Cowboys next. Buy good quality frames in standard sizes and change the images as their taste calls for it. Art Classics Ltd. has a huge selection of afordable framed and unframed artwork in a variety of sizes.

Wood loors topped with a rug are a better option than wall-to-wall carpet. The one-time invest-ment to install hardwoods will pay for itself over the years. A stained rug is easier and more afordable to clean or replace every few years than carpeting. I prefer outdoor rugs in children’s rooms. The rugs clean up beau-tifully and are more afordable than wool or woven rugs.

The secret to keeping any newly decorated room looking good is storage space. Invest in chests with lots of drawers; book-shelves to hold toys, books and electronics; and of course a well-designed closet system. You can’t expect a child to clean up his or her room if there’s no place to put things away.

By Maureen GilmerTribune News Service

When I was a horticulture stu-dent, I was urged to never smoke cigarettes around tomato plants. At the time I considered this ad-vice an old wives’ tale. It wasn’t until I discovered tobacco mosaic virus on my tomatoes that I took a closer look at the disease. Lo and behold, that old smoking-around-tomatoes link came up on the Uni-versity of Minnesota website:

“Cigars, cigarettes and pipe to-baccos can be infected with tobac-co mosaic virus. Handling these smoking materials contaminates the hands, and subsequent han-dling of plants results in a trans-mission of the virus. Therefore, do not smoke while handling or transplanting plants.”

This past year, every one of my carefully selected heirlooms de-clined and died. A postmortem at season’s end revealed it was af-licted with root knot nematodes that had reached critical mass the third year after the garden’s cre-ation. Like many other diseases, it’s due to small space gardens where crops can’t be rotated suf-iciently to prevent disease propa-gation. In small spaces, diseases build up over two or three seasons

to critical levels before they strike.There are two ways to mini-

mize the efects of diseases. First, expand the size of the garden to allow crop rotation, which allows sufficiently different arrange-ments of plants each year. Solution No. 2 is to ind vegetable variet-ies resistant to the disease. These won’t be in my favorite heirloom catalogs because breeding for dis-ease resistance is a modern thing. It’s a hybridization thing. It may even be a GMO thing. These va-rieties are the salvation of farmers in regions where certain diseases are epic.

Keep in mind these are “resis-tant” varieties, not completely dis-ease-proof. In areas of very high concentrations of disease organ-isms, the resistance may not be enough to overcome these odds. To maximize results, let the in-fected area lie fallow (unused) for a year to break the reproductive cycle. Bake the ground in summer under a sheet of black plastic to kill them of. This intermediate step will give resistant varieties greater advantage the following season.

Johnny’s Selected Seeds has al-ways impressed me as the working farmer’s seed catalog. Maybe it’s because they sell in bulk for farm-

ers, not just seed packets for home gardens. It’s our starting point for inding tomatoes and other veg-etable varieties specially bred to resist diseases without chemical controls.

It helps to know what to look for in disease resistant seed stock. These varietal names are followed by abbreviations that indicate re-sistance to speciic diseases. For

example, TMV means it’s resis-tant to tobacco mosaic virus. Oth-er common viral designations for tomatoes are F for fusarium wilt resistance, V for verticillium wilt, L for gray leaf spot and N for nem-atodes, a type of root-damaging roundworm.

I was thrilled to ind a master list of plant disease resistance codes on the Johnny’s Selected Seeds website. This is a highly valuable feature for home gar-deners who have met with disease problems in the past. The list tells you what every suix abbreviation means. This is a universal code for the seed industry developed by the U.S. Department of Agri-culture.

To access the list, go online to johnnyseeds.com and click on Growing Center in the left side navigation bar. Scroll down to Plant Disease Resistance Codes. Use it online or print it out to keep on hand for reference as you shop seed varieties for next year’s gar-den.

The saying goes: Insanity is do-ing the same thing over and over expecting a diferent result. If your plants are sufering from diseases, if yields are poor or they just lack vigor, don’t replant these same va-rieties.

YARD SMART

Ways to minimize efects of disease in gardens

By Aisha SultanSt. Louis Post-Dispatch (TNS)

We confront it everyday, morning and night, for one of our most basic needs — the search for food.

Fortunately, it’s also one of the quickest organiza-tion projects that ofers one of the biggest returns in improved eiciency and peace of mind. We turned to two professional orga-nizers to make over two diferent types of kitchen pantries.

The irst one, a loor-to-ceiling cabinet with six pullout shelves was my very own challenge. The second, a closet pan-try combined with a mud-room, was a neighbor’s.

It took about an hour to complete the cabinet pantry, and it took two or-ganizers about two hours to make over the larger one. Each one, however, followed the same basic steps:

1. ASSESS NEEDSGretchen Bender, owner

of Creative Spaces Orga-nizing in St. Louis, says the irst question she asks is: What is your goal?

“A lot of time people have the space, but they don’t know what to do with it. They just see a series of shelves.”

The organizer starts envisioning what can be grouped together, taken out and added to improve the functionality.

2. EMPTY IT OUTThe next step is to emp-

ty out the entire pantry. It sounds daunting, but it’s truly the only way to get a handle on everything that is hidden there. People will of-ten discover they own mul-tiples of the same product or have a backlog of expired foods.

“If you don’t see it, you won’t use it,” Lisa Bianco, director of marketing for the U.S. Association of Professional Organizers St. Louis chapter and own-er of Perfectly Organized in O’Fallon, Mo., said.

3. CATEGORIZEThe next step is to group

like items. Bianco brought a few storage containers in which she grouped all the protein bars, and fruit and nut bars roaming around. She created a section for snacks, one for breakfast items, pasta and dinner, spices, grains/rice and an entire shelf for baking.

4. TOSS THE EXCESS AND EXPIRED

First, you purge, Bianco said. Get rid of things that are stale or expired. I threw out some year-old granola and half a package of stale shortbread cookies. (I don’t even like shortbread cook-ies.)

We also tossed the Tupperware that was miss-ing lids and consolidated things into empty jars that kept turning up.

5. PUT THE PUZZLE BACK TOGETHER

In the case of both the pantries our organizers worked on, they added a few storage baskets that grouped together certain items, such as teas, spices or lentils. In my pantry, Bi-anco added Lazy Susans for soup cans. She also added labels on each shelf as a re-minder for everyone who uses the pantry.

For shelves that don’t pull out, it’s important to use the vertical space, so everything is within eye level.

“It’s like putting togeth-er a puzzle,” Bianco said. Some pieces it better in different configurations and it takes a little bit of trial and error.

A pantry project is a good start for those who want to become more or-ganized, Bianco said. “It doesn’t take as long. It gets you motivated and lets you feel successful.”

When soccer power-houses such as Houston and Collierville are in your neighborhood, it’s always going to be tough to com-pete. But Germantown is making steady progress.

The youthful Red Dev-ils built a three-goal lead, then held of a late rally to defeat always-tough Kingsbury, 3-2, April 16 at Kingsbury.

“We did a good job,” said first-year German-town coach Ted Bartels, the son of longtime Mem-phis-area soccer coach Chris Bartels.

“We controlled the ball well and created some good chances, and our defense played well ex-cept for a couple of lapses. We’ve only got four se-niors, and we’ve got some good young talent that’s progressing. It bodes well.”

Counterattacking to perfection, the Red Devils took a 1-0 lead just seven minutes into the match as Morgan Furr slotted home a rebound. They made it two just before halftime when freshman Chris Carreon riled in a great strike into the upper left-hand corner.

And another freshman got the third as Eric Eza-guirre converted with a nice inish eight minutes into the second half.

Kingsbury inally woke up midway through the second half and made it interesting thanks to a pair of goals from freight-train striker Jaylen Harvey. And the Falcons could have had more; Jose Rangel missed a wide-open goal from about three yards out and Keven Navarro also went close with a good chance.

But Germantown — an-chored by forward-turned-defender Cody Hardy, who was playing with a sore groin — held on.

There’s a part of Cam-eron Payne that still can’t believe it — how in two years he’s gone from un-ranked college prospect out of Lausanne Collegiate School to projected irst-round pick in June’s NBA draft coming of a stellar sophomore season at Mur-ray State.

Payne didn’t get a schol-arship ofer from the Uni-versity of Memphis, the hometown school he grew up rooting for. Back then, he was a rail-thin point guard prospect who played in the shadow of more sought-after AAU team-mates like former East High star Nick King and Southwind High stand-outs Johnathan Williams III and Jajuan Johnson.

“Man, I remember I just wanted to go somewhere I could it in and get the opportunity to play, and that opportunity has turned into a dream come true,” said Payne, who this month announced he’s for-going his inal two years of college to enter the NBA draft. “I’m still in shock, like, ‘Cameron Payne? This is who y’all want?’ I mean, it’s really crazy. But now I’m in it and I’ve got to get ready to work.”

Though he was named the Lute Olson Player of the Year, which is given annually to the nation’s top Division 1 player who’s played at least two seasons, and earned Ohio Valley Conference Player of the Year honors this season, the 6-foot-2, 177-pound Payne said he still feels like the relatively

unknown commodity he was when Murray State coach Steve Prohm handed him the reins of the team two years ago.

Yet his playmaking ability stood out so much at Murray State — where he ranked 13th nationally in scoring (20.2 points per

game) and 15th nationally in assists (six per game) this season — that NBA draft experts like ESPN.com’s Chad Ford have Payne projected to be selected in the No. 14-22 range of the draft’s irst round.

“Payne was the hottest point guard in the draft un-til Tyus Jones won Duke a title,” Ford wrote of Payne this month. “Payne and Jones have a lot of similari-ties as pass-irst loor gen-erals who play the game with a high basketball IQ but still can put the ball in the basket. The diference is that Payne is taller and a better athlete than Jones, two major sticking points with NBA scouts.”

It was such high praise that helped convince Payne and his family it was time to leave Murray State, where he was the second-fastest player in school his-tory to reach 1,000 points and the third-most ei-cient player in the country this season behind only Wisconsin’s Frank Kamin-sky and BYU’s Tyler Haws, according to Kenpom.com.

“We had a great season. I just felt it couldn’t go any better,” said Payne, who led the Racers to a 29-6 record this season, includ-ing a 16-0 mark in OVC play, and a pair of wins in the NIT. “We were losing some key players to our team and I just felt it was the right time.

“And then I was hot, you know? It’s always good (to enter the draft) when you’re hot. It’s the best time.”

“I’m comfortable, but at the same time I’m on edge (about the draft) because I know people will be com-ing at me,” Payne said. “I’m really trying to get better. I need to get in the weight room and get as big as I can to be physically ready to go against these other guys. I’m more on edge than anything because there’s a lot of distractions and it’s tough to stay focused being 20 years old. But I’ve got my family that keeps me focused, my youth pas-tor keeps me focused and I’m ready to put forth the efort to make the best out of my opportunity.”

The late Norman Kay, one of the most careful and delib-erate players I ever kibitzed, was declarer at a slam in a Team Trials. After the opening lead, Kay went into the grand-father of huddles. Eventually, he made the slam, but later his opponents complained to the director about slow play.

“Look,” they said, “it was a routine contract. The only possible problem was a 5-0 trump break.”

The director approached Kay. “Norman,” he asked, “why did you think for so long on that slam deal?”

“I was wondering what I would do if trumps broke 5-0,” Kay replied sheepishly.

You’re today’s South and leap boldly to six spades. West leads the ace of clubs. Do you see anything to think about?

Suppose you ru� and cash the ace of trumps. West shows out. You can’t draw trumps; the best you can do is start the diamonds. East ru�s the third diamond and, say, shifts to a heart. You must finesse with the queen, and West’s king scores for down one.

Only the most careful player — someone like Nor-man Kay — would cater to all five trumps with East (only a 2 percent chance). But to make the slam, South must have the foresight to dis-card a heart from his hand at Trick One instead of ru�ng. If West leads another club, South discards another heart on dummy’s king and cashes the king of trumps. He leads a trump to his ten, returns to dummy with a high diamond and leads a trump to his nine. He can draw trumps and run the diamonds for 12 tricks.

Dear Harriette: I just turned 40, and I am hav-ing a bit of a hard time with this aging process. Almost to the day, I found out that I need reading glasses. I feel like my bones ache. I know this probably sounds silly or overly self-conscious or something, but I’m wor-ried that everything is falling apart. My life isn’t at all as I had imagined it. I am not married. I do not have kids. I have an OK job, but that’s not what I thought my life would be like. Please don’t sug-gest that I take a class or anything corny like that. I just want to feel like my life still matters.

— Over The Hill, Detroit

On the one hand, it is wise to assess your life at key moments. Turning 40 is one of them, for sure. Be kind to yourself in the process, though. Yes, the body changes as we age. Even more, our goals and dreams often don’t match our accomplishments. That doesn’t mean that your life is a wash. Step back and consider what

you have done that makes you feel proud. Write it down so that you have tangible evidence of what your life means to you. If you also notice things that you want to change or do di�erently in the fu-ture, embrace those, too.

I found turning 40 to be empowering because I really felt like I was getting to know myself better. Instead of licking your wounds, choose to see your life up to now as a personal accomplish-ment. Then look to the future with conviction. You can be your best self. It’s up to you what that means.

The late Norman Kay, one of the most careful and delib-erate players I ever kibitzed, was declarer at a slam in a Team Trials. After the opening lead, Kay went into the grand-father of huddles. Eventually, he made the slam, but later his opponents complained to the director about slow play.

“Look,” they said, “it was a routine contract. The only possible problem was a 5-0 trump break.”

The director approached Kay. “Norman,” he asked, “why did you think for so long on that slam deal?”

“I was wondering what I would do if trumps broke 5-0,” Kay replied sheepishly.

You’re today’s South and leap boldly to six spades. West leads the ace of clubs. Do you see anything to think about?

Suppose you ru� and cash the ace of trumps. West shows out. You can’t draw trumps; the best you can do is start the diamonds. East ru�s the third diamond and, say, shifts to a heart. You must finesse with the queen, and West’s king scores for down one.

Only the most careful player — someone like Nor-man Kay — would cater to all five trumps with East (only a 2 percent chance). But to make the slam, South must have the foresight to dis-card a heart from his hand at Trick One instead of ru�ng. If West leads another club, South discards another heart on dummy’s king and cashes the king of trumps. He leads a trump to his ten, returns to dummy with a high diamond and leads a trump to his nine. He can draw trumps and run the diamonds for 12 tricks.

Dear Annie: For many years, I have heard about the dangers of second-hand smoke. I am a non-smoker.

Now that pot is be-ing legalized, including where I live, what are the dangers of secondhand pot smoke?

— Concerned Breather in

Oregon

Dear Breather: Accord-ing to the American Lung Association, inhaling smoke is harmful whether it’s from cigarettes, pot or burning wood.

How dangerous is it to nonsmokers? A 2014 study found that blood-vessel function in lab rats dropped by 70 percent after 30 minutes of expo-sure to secondhand mari-juana smoke and hadn’t returned to normal even after 40 minutes. You might not get a “contact high,” but with contin-ued exposure, you could su�er impaired lung and blood-vessel function.

Marijuana is much stronger today than it was 40 years ago. More studies need to be done, obviously, but if you are regularly exposed to smoke of any kind, you are likely to develop a problem. Steer clear.

Dear Annie: I am responding to “B” about unsolicited phone calls. I recently fell victim. I pur-chased a contract for my computer. A month later, I received a call saying they were going out of busi-ness and needed to return my money. They claim to have accidentally “depos-ited” an amount greater than what they owed me. They then said I needed to send a MoneyGram for the overpayment.

On my way to the bank, I received 17 calls from the scammer asking why I hadn’t sent the money. Here is how I stopped these calls:

1. I blocked the num-bers they were calling from on my cellphone and my home phone.

2. I set “call rejection” on my home phone so if anyone called from a “private” or “unknown” number, they would be required to unblock their number and call back.

I hope others learn from my experience.

— A Lesson Well Learned

Dear Lesson: Thank you for sharing. We received a great many letters with examples of how these unscrupulous people work and will print more in future columns. Stay tuned.

Jumble Daily Bridge Club

Today’s East-West were using special defensive carding agreements. In their method, the lead of the jack denied a higher honor. From a holding such as A-J-10-x-x, the proper lead was the ten.

So when West led the jack of hearts against 3NT, East knew his partner had no higher honors. But South knew it too; he played low from dummy. When East played the six, South took his ace.

Declarer next led a diamond, and West won and led a second heart. When dummy played low, East had to play the king. South won the club return, forced out West’s other high diamond and took the rest, making four.

UNBLOCK Some theorists doubt the wisdom

of “jack denies.” They think it helps declarer more than the defenders. What is sure is that East-West should beat 3NT regardless: East must unblock his king on the first heart.

If South wins and starts the diamonds, West wins, sets up his hearts and gets in

with his second high diamond to cash them.

This week: communication on de-fense.

Questions and comments: Email Stewart at [email protected]

Aries (March 21-April 19) ★★★ Your instincts serve you well. Be aware of your limitations in a situation, and don’t push boundaries. By the midafternoon, you could become more inquisitive.

Taurus (April 20-May 20) ★★★★ Use the morning to the max. You know what you want, and others will re-spond. A matter surrounding your home life will take a turn, most likely for the better.

Gemini (May 21-June 20) ★★★ You could feel a bit o� in the morning, but by late afternoon, your energy surges. Keep negativity on the back burner, and you will be able to accomplish a lot more.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)★★★ You might believe that you are on the right path and could become a little careless. You could get tripped up over a detail you have overlooked. Avoid being too exacting.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)★★★★ You might decide to change your focus. Complete what you have started, and by the end of the day, good news will greet you. Whether you are in a meeting or at a get-together, you end up with friends.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)★★★★ Encourage yourself to take in the big picture, especially if you feel triggered. You might want to approach a situation di�er-ently. Others look to you for guidance and suggestions.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)★★★ Let your sensitive and caring side emerge. You might be more tired than you realize, which will a�ect your words and actions. Go for a walk and/or recharge your batteries by going to the gym.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)★★★★ Step back and acknowledge what is happening around you. Defer to someone else, and make sure that he or she is willing to carry the ball. Clearly, you feel as if you have your hands full.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) ★★★★ You might be very put o� by some-one’s words, and your expression will say it all. Be willing to approach a matter di�erent-ly for your sake, and try to resolve a hassle.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)★★★★ You might want to have a discus-sion about what you expect from someone. Otherwise, this person most likely will let you down.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)★★★ You might be more reluctant than you realize. Deal with a personal matter first. A partner or loved one could be challeng-ing, and it might force you to rethink your stance.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) ★★★★★ Express your thoughts with the expectation of being heard. Honor a change, and be willing to move away from a loved one who could be too challenging.

Horoscope

This year you encourage yourself to take risks. Your creativity and ability to understand helps you get past problems far more easily than in the recent past. Others often note this ability and will seek you out to brainstorm with you. You’ll discover what a fun and meaningful year this could be. If you are single, some-one of interest could enter your life sometime after mid-August. If you are attached, accept your sweetie as he or she is, and things will go smoothly. Make the most of the good moments. GEMINI knows how to en-courage you to shop. Be careful!

Reader concerned about pot smoke

By Jacqueline Bigar King Features Syndicate

In 1792, France declared war on Austria, marking the start of the French Revolutionary Wars.

In 1861, Col. Robert E. Lee resigned his commission in the United States Army. (Lee went on to command the Army of Northern Virginia, and eventually became general-in-chief of the Confederate forces.)

In 1889, Adolf Hitler was born in Austria.

In 1912, Boston’s Fenway Park hosted its first professional baseball game while Navin Field (Tiger Stadium) opened in Detroit. (The Red Sox defeated the New York Highlanders 7-6 in 11 innings; the Tigers beat the Cleveland Naps 6-5 in 11 innings.)

In 1914, the Ludlow Massacre took place when the Colorado National Guard opened fire on a tent colony of striking miners; about 20 strikers, women and children died.

In 1945, during World War II, allied forces took control

of the German cities of Nuremberg and Stuttgart.

In 1972, Apollo 16’s lunar module, carrying astronauts John W. Young and Charles M. Duke Jr., landed on the moon.

In 1988, gunmen who’d hijacked a Kuwait Airways jumbo jet were allowed safe passage out of Algeria under an agreement that freed the remaining 31 hostages and ended a 15-day siege in which two passengers were slain.

In 1999, the Columbine High School massacre took place in Colorado as two students, Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold, shot and killed 12 classmates and one teacher before taking their own lives.

In 2010, an explosion on the Deepwater Horizon oil platform, leased by BP, killed 11 workers and caused a blow-out that began spewing an estimated 200 million gallons of crude into the Gulf of Mexico.

TODAY IN HISTORYToday is Monday, April 20, the 110th day of 2015. There are 255 days left in the year.

MY ANSWER

God answers prayers according to his will

Q: I know God sometimes says “No” when we ask for something in our prayers. But if he really loved us, wouldn’t he al-ways answer our prayers with a “Yes”?

— Mrs. G.H.

A: Let me assure you that God does love us, and precisely because he loves us, he sometimes says “No” to what we request in our prayers.

Let me explain it this way. Elsewhere in your letter, you mention that you and your husband have two children. Do you give them everything they ask for? Or if they want to do something you know is danger-ous, do you let them do it anyway? No, of course not. and the reason is because you love them and don’t want anything bad to happen to them. Part of your responsibil-ity as a parent is to protect your children from harm even if it sometimes means saying “No”.

In a much greater way, God loves us and knows what is best for us — far more than we do. And because he wants to keep us from harm, he sometimes says “No.” As I look back over my life, I know God some-times said “No” to things I asked him to do, and to be honest, I often was disappointed. But later I realized God knew what he was doing, and by saying “No” he had kept me from harm.

Prayer is one of our greatest privileges, and it’s possible because Jesus Christ has opened heaven’s door for us through his death and resurrection. But prayer isn’t just asking God to do anything we want. Begin by committing your life to Christ. Then make it your goal to seek his will in your prayers. The Bible says, “If we ask anything according to his will.... we have what we asked of him” (1 John 5:14-15).

Dear Miss Manners: Last fall, I married my part-ner of 24 years in another state that allowed gay mar-riages, as our state did not. Once back, we had a lovely reception at our home and hosted about 100 guests.

We really did not want presents and did not men-tion gifts on the invitation. We received many great and unique gifts and many gift cards, which were put to good use.

However, we were sur-prised to receive a number of cards with promises to take us out to dinner to cel-ebrate. Seven months later, not one has made good on their promise.

Not that we are keep-ing track, but each time we see one of these folks, we hear, “Oh, we still owe you a dinner!”

I politely reply, “You

don’t owe us a thing, but we would love to go out with you sometime soon!” It is to the point of being very awkward when we see one of these people. We never bring up the for-gotten dinner.

What are your thoughts?Gentle Reader: That you

needn’t worry about the awkwardness, which is of their making, and which you have been handling gracefully.

Dear Miss Manners: My husband and I will be cel-ebrating our 50th wedding anniversary next year, and I would like to have our names printed on the napkins. Which one of his names should I use?

All our friends and fam-ily who live in the state where we were born and attended school called him by his middle name. He was in the Army for more than 20 years, and wherev-er we lived and where we have lived now, for almost

40 years, people call him by his irst name.

I don’t want to have two stacks of napkins — kind of confusing, as people here would wonder what is going on. So, which name should be on the napkins?

Gentle Reader: That this is what we now call “a First World problem” does not bother Miss Manners. What does is that etiquette has no tradition to cover this. So Miss Manners will have to set a precedent, as well as a special exception for this case.

Paper napkins being highly informal, mark-ing them with whatever one goes by, including a nickname, is better than trying to pass them of as the real thing. However, here she would allow you to use both your husband’s and your irst and middle names, so as not to prompt any guests to think that there has been a switch that they missed.

Promises of dinner have been broken

The late Norman Kay, one of the most careful and delib-erate players I ever kibitzed, was declarer at a slam in a Team Trials. After the opening lead, Kay went into the grand-father of huddles. Eventually, he made the slam, but later his opponents complained to the director about slow play.

“Look,” they said, “it was a routine contract. The only possible problem was a 5-0 trump break.”

The director approached Kay. “Norman,” he asked, “why did you think for so long on that slam deal?”

“I was wondering what I would do if trumps broke 5-0,” Kay replied sheepishly.

You’re today’s South and leap boldly to six spades. West leads the ace of clubs. Do you see anything to think about?

Suppose you ru� and cash the ace of trumps. West shows out. You can’t draw trumps; the best you can do is start the diamonds. East ru�s the third diamond and, say, shifts to a heart. You must finesse with the queen, and West’s king scores for down one.

Only the most careful player — someone like Nor-man Kay — would cater to all five trumps with East (only a 2 percent chance). But to make the slam, South must have the foresight to dis-card a heart from his hand at Trick One instead of ru�ng. If West leads another club, South discards another heart on dummy’s king and cashes the king of trumps. He leads a trump to his ten, returns to dummy with a high diamond and leads a trump to his nine. He can draw trumps and run the diamonds for 12 tricks.

Dear Harriette: I just turned 40, and I am hav-ing a bit of a hard time with this aging process. Almost to the day, I found out that I need reading glasses. I feel like my bones ache. I know this probably sounds silly or overly self-conscious or something, but I’m wor-ried that everything is falling apart. My life isn’t at all as I had imagined it. I am not married. I do not have kids. I have an OK job, but that’s not what I thought my life would be like. Please don’t sug-gest that I take a class or anything corny like that. I just want to feel like my life still matters.

— Over The Hill, Detroit

On the one hand, it is wise to assess your life at key moments. Turning 40 is one of them, for sure. Be kind to yourself in the process, though. Yes, the body changes as we age. Even more, our goals and dreams often don’t match our accomplishments. That doesn’t mean that your life is a wash. Step back and consider what

you have done that makes you feel proud. Write it down so that you have tangible evidence of what your life means to you. If you also notice things that you want to change or do di�erently in the fu-ture, embrace those, too.

I found turning 40 to be empowering because I really felt like I was getting to know myself better. Instead of licking your wounds, choose to see your life up to now as a personal accomplish-ment. Then look to the future with conviction. You can be your best self. It’s up to you what that means.

The late Norman Kay, one of the most careful and delib-erate players I ever kibitzed, was declarer at a slam in a Team Trials. After the opening lead, Kay went into the grand-father of huddles. Eventually, he made the slam, but later his opponents complained to the director about slow play.

“Look,” they said, “it was a routine contract. The only possible problem was a 5-0 trump break.”

The director approached Kay. “Norman,” he asked, “why did you think for so long on that slam deal?”

“I was wondering what I would do if trumps broke 5-0,” Kay replied sheepishly.

You’re today’s South and leap boldly to six spades. West leads the ace of clubs. Do you see anything to think about?

Suppose you ru� and cash the ace of trumps. West shows out. You can’t draw trumps; the best you can do is start the diamonds. East ru�s the third diamond and, say, shifts to a heart. You must finesse with the queen, and West’s king scores for down one.

Only the most careful player — someone like Nor-man Kay — would cater to all five trumps with East (only a 2 percent chance). But to make the slam, South must have the foresight to dis-card a heart from his hand at Trick One instead of ru�ng. If West leads another club, South discards another heart on dummy’s king and cashes the king of trumps. He leads a trump to his ten, returns to dummy with a high diamond and leads a trump to his nine. He can draw trumps and run the diamonds for 12 tricks.

Dear Harriette: I just turned 40, and I am hav-ing a bit of a hard time with this aging process. Almost to the day, I found out that I need reading glasses. I feel like my bones ache. I know this probably sounds silly or overly self-conscious or something, but I’m wor-ried that everything is falling apart. My life isn’t at all as I had imagined it. I am not married. I do not have kids. I have an OK job, but that’s not what I thought my life would be like. Please don’t sug-gest that I take a class or anything corny like that. I just want to feel like my life still matters.

— Over The Hill, Detroit

On the one hand, it is wise to assess your life at key moments. Turning 40 is one of them, for sure. Be kind to yourself in the process, though. Yes, the body changes as we age. Even more, our goals and dreams often don’t match our accomplishments. That doesn’t mean that your life is a wash. Step back and consider what

you have done that makes you feel proud. Write it down so that you have tangible evidence of what your life means to you. If you also notice things that you want to change or do di�erently in the fu-ture, embrace those, too.

I found turning 40 to be empowering because I really felt like I was getting to know myself better. Instead of licking your wounds, choose to see your life up to now as a personal accomplish-ment. Then look to the future with conviction. You can be your best self. It’s up to you what that means.

By Jacqueline BigarKing Features Syndicate

ARIES (March 21-April 19) HHH You understand an expenditure surrounding your home and/or family. However, another person who is involved might not. Follow your intuition on how to proceed, and let go of your vision.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) HHHH Your words have an impact; others will react ac-cordingly. A partner might seem distant, perhaps in response to what you are saying. Is getting your way more important than having an easy interaction? Find some middle ground.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) HHH Be aware of what is occur-ring between you and someone else. Share more of what you care about, and encourage others to be more authentic. Getting to that point might be interesting.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHHH Friends support your drive to complete a proj-ect. Your biggest barrier could be your energy; it’s not endless, though you act as if it is. Keep in mind the end results, but take

needed breaks along the way. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)

HHH A parent or higher-up seems to be very sure of him- or herself. Use your instincts when dealing with this person. A key friend might help you create cir-cumstances that are much more to your liking.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) HHHH Imagine what it is like to have the power to change what is going on around you. A key as-sociate seems inspired by your thinking, and he or she is likely to play a dominant role. Sit back and see what happens.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HHHH View a situation in a dif-ferent light. Your sense of humor could be of-color, but it will help others you gain a perspective on their immediate dealings. Pres-sure comes from your own ex-pectations of yourself. Ease up.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) HHHHH Detach, and you’ll ind the answers you’re looking for. Follow your instincts. Others might respond in a way that de-lights you. Recognize the lack of facts being presented by some-one, and let your imagination ill in the gaps.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-

Dec. 21) HHHH Someone close to you will seek you out. Listen to your intuition — not your mental chatter. Recognize the role your inner dialogue plays in your life, especially if the facts are not conirmed. Relax and listen more.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHHH Be aware of your ability to move people when you approach them with sen-sitivity. You could feel a little of, as you might be depressed or tired. Make time for a cat nap or whatever else you feel will heal you.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHHH Try to be more nur-turing when dealing with those in your daily life. Your ability to empathize with others could be instrumental. A friend will let you know that he or she doesn’t agree with you. Listen, but tune in to your inner voice.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHHHH Make it OK to be on cruise control, even if a boss or a parent criticizes your be-havior. Do what is necessary to appease this person, and trust your intuition. If you are single, an encounter with a new person could be signiicant.

BLACKENED HALIBUT WITH MANGO- AVOCADO SALSAServes 2.Blackening mix:

INGREDIENTS

2 teaspoons smoked paprika 1 teaspoon sweet paprika 1 teaspoon granulated garlic 1 teaspoon granulated onion 1 teaspoon black pepper ½ teaspoon cayenne pepper (or to taste) ½ teaspoon dry mustard ½ teaspoon dried thyme ½ teaspoon dried oregano ¼ teaspoon salt

DIRECTIONS

Combine ingredients in a small bowl. Set aside.

Fish and salsa:

INGREDIENTS

2 (6-8 ounce) pieces halibut, skin removed 2 tablespoons butter 1 tablespoon olive oil 1 large mango, peeled, pitted and diced 1 small avocado, peeled, pitted and diced ½ medium jalapeño pepper, seeded if desired,

finely chopped ¼ cup finely chopped red bell pepper (about ¼

medium pepper) 3 tablespoons finely chopped red onion 3 tablespoons chopped cilantro 1-2 tablespoons honey (to taste) 1 large lime, juiced — salt, to taste

DIRECTIONS

1 Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Pat fish dry, then season liberally with blackening mix. Heat a cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat until very hot. Add the butter and oil. As soon as the butter melts, add fish to skillet. Cook 2 minutes per side. Transfer to a baking pan, place in oven and cook 5-7 minutes or until fish easily flakes with a fork.

2 Meanwhile, combine salsa ingredients in a medium bowl. Serve with fish.

By Carol BorchardtSpecial to The Commercial Appeal

The appearance of fresh halibut at area ish counters is one of my favorite things about spring because it’s our favorite ish to cook at home.

Fishing of Paciic halibut is carefully regu-lated, which makes it a highly sustainable seafood choice. Fresh halibut is available now through October.

The lightly charred crust that results from “blackening” creates a pleasant contrast to this mild, laky ish. Chef Paul Prudhom-me is credited with creating this cooking method in the 1980s, and it remains hugely popular today. Basically, a blend of herbs and spices is rubbed onto ish, meat or poul-try and then quickly seared at a high tem-perature. Commercial blends are available; however, I prefer to blend my own so that I can control the amount of salt and heat. A good seasoned cast-iron skillet is ideal for blackening food.

After searing the halibut for approximate-ly two minutes per side in a butter and oil combination, I like to transfer it to a baking dish to inish cooking in the oven instead of transferring the cast iron skillet — ish and all — to the oven. The outside will already be nicely charred, and because the butter and oil will be extremely hot, it can start to burn and smoke in your oven.

This tangy mango and avocado salsa pairs perfectly with the blackened halibut.

Good Florida mangos are just coming into season. A ripe mango should yield gently to pressure when squeezed and have a light, fruity aroma at the stem end. This salsa also pairs well with other types of blackened or grilled ish, shrimp or chicken.

Serve with a rice pilaf or creamy grits.

Elwood’s Shack owner Tim Bednarski pulls his smoked jerk style whole wings from the kitchen smoker. Every week, Bednarski goes through approximately 10 cases of chicken wings.

By Jennifer [email protected]

901-529-5223

At Elwood’s Shack, owner Tom Bednarski goes through about 10 cases of chicken wings a week, doling out the roughly 1,400 wings each week in orders of four or eight at a time. And if you think

that sounds impressive, well, consider this:On Super Bowl Sunday, Americans consumed 1.25 bil-

lion chicken wings. Yes, that’s supposed to be a “b,” and here are a few fun facts about what you could do with 1.25 billion chicken wings.

CHICKEN, LITTLE

BUFFALO CHICKEN WINGSServes 4.

INGREDIENTS

16 chicken wings (about 3 pounds) ¼ pound (1 stick) unsalted butter 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper 4 teaspoons Frank’s Hot Sauce, or 1 teaspoon Tabasco 1 teaspoon kosher salt 1 ½ cups crumbled Gorgonzola or other blue cheese 1 cup good mayonnaise ¾ cup sour cream 2 tablespoons milk ¾ teaspoon Worcestershire sauce 1 ½ teaspoons kosher salt ¾ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper — Celery sticks, for serving

DIRECTIONS

1 Preheat the broiler. Cut the chicken wings in thirds, cutting between the bones. Discard the wing tips. Melt the butter and add the cayenne, hot sauce, and salt. Put the wings on a sheet pan and brush them with the melted butter. Broil them about 3 inches below the heat for 8 minutes. Turn the wings, brush them again with the butter, and broil for 4 more minutes or until cooked.

2 For the sauce, place the blue cheese, mayonnaise, sour cream, milk, Worcestershire, salt, and pepper in the bowl of a food pro-cessor fitted with a steel blade. Process until almost smooth.

3 Serve the chicken wings hot or at room temperature with the blue cheese dip and celery sticks.

PARTY MICROWAVE CHICKENServes 4 to 6.

INGREDIENTS

24 broiler-fryer chicken drummettes 2 tablespoons margarine 5 tablespoons soy sauce, divided 2 tablespoons flour 1 tablespoons paprika 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce 1 teaspoon onion powder 1 teaspoon garlic powder ½ cup red plum jam ¹/ 8 teaspoon hot pepper sauce

DIRECTIONS

1 Place margarine in small microwaveable bowl; microwave on medium for 1 minute or until melted. To margarine, add 4 table-spoons of the soy sauce, flour, paprika, Worcestershire sauce, onion powder and garlic powder. Mix well with small whisk or fork. Brush each drummette with sauce and then arrange on rack in microwave baking dish, meaty part toward outside.

2 Microwave, uncovered, on high for 10 minutes; turn drum-mettes over and brush with sauce from bottom of baking dish. Microwave on high for about 8 more minutes or until fork can be inserted in chicken with ease. While chicken stands for 5 min-utes, mix in small bowl plum jam, remaining 1 tablespoon soy sauce and hot pepper sauce; microwave on high 1 minute, stir and microwave 1 more minute. Dip drummettes in plum sauce and serve as hors d’oeuvres in chafing dish with any remaining sauce poured over.

Fried or smoked, whole or parts, hot or not, we eat wings by the billions

Elwood’s Shack pecan smoked jerk style whole wings.

You could lay the segments end to end and they would stretch to Seattle and back to Foxborough, Mass. (re-member, it was the Seahawks vs. the Patriots), not once, not twice, but 28 times. They would circle the Grand Canyon not 10 times, not 50, but 120 times.

In fact, close to 10 percent of all the chicken wings consumed an-nually are washed down with cold beer on Super Bowl Sunday, but that leaves another 13 billion or so to get us through the rest of 2015. As wings are typically sold in pieces, that come to about 28 billion total pieces, including whole wings, drummettes, lats and tips.

So here’s how the wing breaks down. Chickens have two, of course. The meatiest part close to the body is called the drummette because it resembles a small drumstick; these are usually sold as drummies in res-taurants. Extending out from the body, the next portion of the wing is the lat, double-boned with the majority of the meat in between the bones (but there’s also meat on the outside). The tip is the end of the wing and while people will nibble on them, they yield very little meat.

“The majority of the tips are exported to foreign, mostly Asian countries,” said Tom Super, vice president of communications for the National Chicken Council, the com-piler of all those Super Bowl factoids.

Bednarksi is a drummie fan; so is Rocky Kasaftes, owner of Alex’s Tavern. They’re in the majority, as

46 percent of people who eat wings prefer the drummette (Kasaftes only serves the drummies).

Just 10 percent, in the poll by the NCC, like their wings whole. Obvi-ously, this is a national poll, as in the Memphis area you’re about as likely to get whole wings when you order them as you are to get segments. And while true Bufalo wings are fried, we like ours smoked in these parts, too.

Super says the easiest way to get the smoky lavor in your wings is to cheat a little.

“We cook wings at home a lot,” he said. “I usually bake them at 400 de-grees for about 10 to 12 minutes, then I throw them on the grill for about 10 to 15 minutes. Cooking them irst lessens the amount of grease that will drip on the coals.

“Take them of the grill, put ’em in a bowl, sauce ’em and toss ’em.”

For him, there’s just one way to dip them: Blue cheese.

Quick stop. The story, with little dispute except for a detail here and there, is that in 1964 Teressa Bellis-simo, who with her husband owned the Anchor Bar in Bufalo, created the wing as we know it, tossed in hot sauce and served with celery and blue cheese dressing. Her hus-band, Frank, according to smithso-nianmag.org, told Calvin Trillin of The New Yorker that she cooked the wings when the distributor delivered them by mistake — they’d ordered chicken necks, which were used in their spaghetti gravy. Her son says

close, but what really happened is she made them as a little giveaway for loyal customers late one night. And John Young of Bufalo says that he invented them by putting his sig-nature “mambo” sauce on wings, but purists say that his wings were whole and battered before they were fried, so even if he was irst, it was a diferent thing.

In the South, you’ll ind various sauces for wings. First, there’s the sauce the wings are tossed in, which might be plain old store-bought Frank’s Red Hot or Louisiana Hot Sauce (usually mixed with melted butter) or concoctions so searing hot they come with warnings, dis-claimers, waivers. Of course, this is Memphis, after all, and wings can be dry — saucing and tossing is not de rigeur. But wet or dry, you’ll usually be asked if you want blue cheese or ranch for dipping.

For grilling, Bednarski says it’s best to stay away from direct heat. “If you’ve got a ire under them, you really, really have to pay attention, because the fat is going to drip and you’re going to get lare-ups and it’s easy to end up burning your wings,” he said.

He says to grill them over indirect heat or go the traditional route and fry them. But he has a twist.

“The best way to do a fried wing is to bake them until they’re about 90 percent done, then deep fry to in-ish them of. After they come out of the fryer, shake them in butter and sauce.”

When you walk into Mosa Asian Bistro, take a minute to look at the white board be-fore you take your seat. There won’t be a lot there — one spe-cial, maybe two — but you’ll see something you like. Over two review visits and plenty of others over the years, I ate my favorite dish at Mosa because my friend spotted something on the board she wanted to try:

Yuan bao is one of the best bowls of soup I’ve tasted. Not the absolute best — there have been too many that have come and gone, too many toothsome bowls of tom yum (RIP, Gold-en Dragon/Royal Dragon; we still miss you), too many matzo balls loating in golden elixir, a whole lot of pho — and the lat-ter is what yuan bao most close-ly resembles of that list, with dumplings instead of noodles.

The chicken broth was stel-lar, clear and clean, the per-fect base for the fresh cilantro and chives scattered on top and the handmade dumplings loating so abundantly within. The dumplings are wrinkled, imperfectly shaped won- tons wrapped around tasty morsels of chicken illing, and they are just as good as the broth. Cabbage and carrots add a little color and a bit of la-vor, but this is really about the broth and the dumplings. And the soy ginger sauce, served at your preferred heat level, on the side. It’s simple, but it adds an-other layer of lavor — though I recommend not adding it to the soup. Instead, just dip your dumplings into it. One in, one not. Mix it up.

It’s fantastic, and if you like clear yet hearty Asian soups — just think wonton soup, but el-evate it several notches — you’ll love this.

Mosa is the very popular

Pan-Asian restaurant owned by Eddie Pao and his partner, son Alex. Eddie, longtime Mem-phians might know, founded Formosa on Summer Avenue about 40 years ago with his

brother Alfred; it has long since moved to Quince. Chinese, Thai, Taiwanese, even a little Japanese food is served.

At Mosa, you order at the counter at lunch, and dinner is full service, but the same menu is in play. Prices are ine for lunch and a true value for din-ner; the most expensive entrée is $15, a small serving of very good hot and sour soup is $2, the excellent yuan bao is $8.50.

And portions are generous, extremely so on noodle dishes such as lo mein or the big bowl of pad see u, a dish of wide noo-dles lavored with sesame and served with the protein of your choice.

Beyond the yuan bao, there’s three-seasoned shrimp, a rif on the Chinese standard salt-and-pepper shrimp. Good-size (though not jumbo, as the menu says) shrimp are seasoned with salt and pepper, garlic and

green onion, quickly fried and served over sauteed Napa cab-bage, with a pickled slaw of car-rots and radish at one end of the long ish plate and a mound of white or brown rice at the other. (It’s the $15 dish, one of only three that hit double digits.)

The Korean BBQ beef is an-other good one. Flank steak is sliced, sauteed in a silky brown soy glaze and served over crisp chow mein noodles for a nice contrast in texture. Szechuan chicken was very good, too (and remember, you can order beef, shrimp, tofu or sans pro-tein, as you wish). The chicken was extremely tender, served in a spicy (as ordered) sauce with a touch of sweetness and plenty of fresh, barely-cooked vegetables such as broccoli, on-ion and peppers.

It’s a bit loud in the restau-rant when it’s busy. If you want a quieter dinner, snag an out-door table, or go before the rush comes in. With food this good at prices so reasonable, folks are iling in by 7 p.m. most nights.
