For many years we have had to endure a home invasion of ladybugs that are determined to make themselves bothersome houseguests. They are beneficial creatures, feeding on other bugs that damage farm crops, but indoors they drive you nuts buzzing around lights, dive bombing into drinks, and smelling bad.
At the beginning of a semester, Mark Majors (the shop class instructor at Union County High School) asks the students what sort of projects they want to work on in their class. They need to identify a problem, brainstorm solutions choosing the best one and then implement that solution. It is a group decision. These students decided to team up with the TN Valley Coalition for the Homeless (TVCH).

Agenda
I have often said: “If everyone in the world was like me, we’d all be living in caves.” Don’t believe me? Read on…
While I have a creative mind, I don’t have an engineering mind. Nada. Now, I’m good in math and science, but I can’t construct anything. For instance, my parents bought me a box of Lincoln Logs when I was a little girl. My neighbor had one, so I wanted one too.
With grocery prices continuing to rise, many families are looking for ways to make their meals go a little bit farther. A few small changes in the kitchen can help you save money without giving up flavor or satisfaction.
One easy trick is to stretch your meat dishes by mixing in budget-friendly ingredients. Try adding refried beans, black beans, or lentils to taco meat for extra texture and protein. Or, mix cooked quinoa, rice, or oats into ground beef when making meatloaf, burgers, or casseroles. These additions can nearly double your portions at a fraction of the cost.
In the heart of Maynardville, American Legion Post 212 stands as a beacon of remembrance and service, honoring those who have worn the uniform to defend freedom. Among its many traditions, one stands out in solemn reverence—the Empty Chair, a powerful symbol of those who were taken as prisoners of war (POWs) and never received a proper burial. This chair, draped with the unmistakable black POW/MIA cloth, is more than just an object; it is a sacred space that ensures these heroes are never forgotten.
Q: What conditions do chiropractors treat?
A: Doctors of Chiropractic (DCs) care for patients of all ages, with a variety of health conditions. DCs are especially well known for their expertise in caring for patients with back pain, neck pain and headaches, particularly with their highly skilled manipulations or chiropractic adjustments. They also care for patients with a wide range of injuries and disorders of the musculoskeletal system, involving the muscles, ligaments and joints. These painful conditions often involve or impact the nervous system, which can cause referred pain and dysfunction distant to the region of injury. The benefits of chiropractic care extend to general health issues, as well, since our body structure affects our overall function. DCs also counsel patients on diet, nutrition, exercise, healthy habits, and occupational and lifestyle modification.
