Nan Shinn has logged more than 800 hours in just a little
over two years of volunteering at NHA.
Brenda Batey
Social Editor
Community support is the
lifeblood of the Nashville
Humane Association (NHA),
and nothing is more vital than
the assistance provided by the
numerous volunteers who go
to the shelter to perform all
kinds of tasks.
“Nashville
Humane
Association is a non-profit,
non-government agency which
relies greatly on the support of
volunteers,” said Kenneth
Tallier,
director
of
public/media relations for the
shelter.
“In 2014, we had 6,825 hours
of
volunteer
assistance.
Nashville
Humane
Association volunteers spend
their free time helping the
staff and contribute to help
achieve our mission. We are so
very thankful to all these dedicated volunteers.”
Two of these invaluable volunteers are Norma Riddick
and Nan Shinn. Riddick has
logged the most hours of service of any NHA volunteer –
close to 2,000.
Since 2007 the retired
Vanderbilt librarian and former school teacher has worked
tirelessly and intensively with
NHA’s canine population,
focusing on the smallest and
the most timid dogs that benefit most from her gentle, loving
nature.
Riddick primarily focuses
on those dogs who enter the
shelter wary of their new surroundings and afraid of people. Always willing to lend a
helping hand, Riddick not only
works with these canines to
socialize them to adoptability,
but also offers assistance promoting them as one of the
shelter’s dedicated media
hounds, which are puppy handlers for social media and website photos.
As Riddick works daily to
socialize those most afraid,
she can often be found patiently sitting in their kennels,

Design work to cease on controversial AMP, mass transit project
The Nashville MTA will
cease work on the Amp, a proposed bus rapid transit system,
but proceed with strategic planning for the Middle Tennessee
region. CEO Steve Bland told
MTA board members that the
strategic planning would help
position the next mayor to
advance with a high-capacity
transit project if desired.
“While the Amp will not be
moving forward, the conversa-
tion about it, led by Mayor Karl
Dean, has laid the groundwork
for a future project by elevating
Nashville’s understanding of
the need for mass transit to a
level never seen before,” Bland
said.
The report came in response
to a request made by Mayor
Karl Dean at the last meeting of
the Amp Citizen’s Advisory
Committee on October 28. At
the time, Mayor Dean asked
Bland to analyze the findings of
the CAC and present recommendations for the planning
process.
Other recommendations include:
• Advancing of a regional
strategic plan, transferring
some funds from the Amp
design budget specifically to be
used for aggressive regional
public engagement. This plan
should reimagine public transit
in Nashville in the face of the
region’s unprecedented growth.
• Examine design concepts
for high performance transit
facilities in multiple corridors
through the MTA system.
• Design the best project for
local needs, keeping FTA/
USDOT requirements for funding in mind, but not as the dominant consideration.
• Continue to focus on general service improvements, like
additional BRT lite services in
the Charlotte and Nolensville
Corridors, real-time traveler
information and additional passenger
waiting
shelters
throughout the MTA service
area.
• Fully engage transportation partners like TDOT and
Metro Public Works in this earliest stage of plan development.
“Even though we aren’t moving forward with the Amp, we
will move forward with our
strategic planning efforts and
engage in extensive dialogue
with residents to gain their
input on transit solutions for
our community. We will continue to focus on this corridor as
well as others in the region,”
Bland said. “We cannot afford
to lose ground if we wish to
remain competitive with our
peers. We must plan for future
growth efficiently.”
Bland said Mayor Dean’s
decision not to seek state or
local funds for the Amp, also
announced at the October 28th
CAC meeting, was not a sign of
wanting support but rather a
realistic view of the time frame
around capital intensive transit
projects.
Public meetings for the MTA
strategic plan will begin in late
February. Overall goals will be
to keep the debate and direction
around building a more robust
public transit system in the
public dialogue while ensuring
work already conducted for the
Amp is used to give the next
mayor the tools with which to
proceed on an initial project.

A core group of strong,
smart and bold women gathered in Downtown Nashville
last week to remember the history, celebrate the present, and
secure the future of the YWCA
of
Nashville and Middle
Tennessee. Nicky Weaver, longtime YWCA supporter and
Nashville philanthropist and
Jen Robinson, managing shareholder for the law firm of
Littler Mendelson, hosted the
Fulcrum Society kickoff luncheon on Wednesday, January 14
at the Palm Restaurant.
Members of the Fulcrum
Society financially support the
YWCA’s mission at $5,000 or
greater annually.
“The YWCA has been serving the Nashville community
for nearly 117 years,” said Pat
Shea, President and CEO of the
YWCA. “A fulcrum, by definition, enables people to do work
using less force. Its power
comes from outside forces acting on it. The Fulcrum Society
is helping ensure that our lifechanging—and often life-saving
services—will be available
today, tomorrow and in the
years to come.”
Forty-five of the Nashville’s
leading female business and
community leaders attended
the event. They heard directly
from a domestic violence survivor who was also one of the
first residents of the Weaver
Domestic Violence Center and a
recent from GED graduate from
the Family Literacy Center.
The Fulcrum Society allows
members a way to enhance the
programs and feel a tangible
part of the work of the YWCA.
“We have all reached a point
in our lives and our careers
where we can do more than a
hand out,” luncheon co-chair
Jen Robinson told the crowd.
“We all share the core values of
the YWCA, and we can and
should offer a leg up to the
women and girls who need it.”

Aging in Place
As one of the largest generations in American history
begins to reach retirement age,
demand for senior-friendly
products and services is on the
rise - and housing is no exception. Aging in place is somewhat of a radical trend for our
society and, thanks to the Baby
Boomers, is becoming a very
popular one. According to a
recent survey by AARP, 90 percent of seniors would prefer to
age in their own home, with 82
percent opting to stay even if
the need for day-to-day assistance arises.
Regardless of your age, it's
never too early to think about
the future. Whatever your life
goals or dreams are, planning
for and incorporating those priorities into your next home purchase could save you time,
money and energy later on.
If you're searching for a new
property and are interested in
finding a forever home whether you're 25 or 65 - discuss
that vision with your realtor.
They will listen to your needs
and desires for daily life now
and later. An experienced real
estate professional is a great
resource, able to shed some
light on the following categories that otherwise may prevent your new home from being
your forever home.
Location: You know that
location is important to any
real estate purchase, but convenience and locality can truly
determine your ability to stay
in a particular home long term.
The perfect location varies
from family to family depending on their lifestyle.
If you want to age in place,
consider the home's proximity
to healthcare providers and
nearby public transportation
options. Also, research the
strength of the surrounding
community. Some communities
offer more resources to seniors
than others, so be sure to determine what retirement living in
that area is currently like.
Layout: Finding the perfect
long-term layout can be difficult. How many rooms do I
need? How many stories? The
new buzzword to listen for is
universal design, a collection of
ideas that, when implemented,
make buildings or products
accessible and safe for all,
including the elderly and those
with disabilities. Standard components of universal design are
almost unnoticeable unless you
know what to look for: slipresistant floors, lever-style door
handles and extra lighting.
If you decide to build your
own home, be specific and
intentional in your design. A
no-step entry way or slightly
wider doorways to accommodate a wheelchair are small
changes that will not alter your
daily life now, but could make a
big difference later on.
Renovations: You'll never
anticipate all of life's curve
balls or challenges, so understand that you may need to
make a few adjustments later in
life. Be sure you consider the
cost of potential renovations,
and budget for them along with
the cost of your new mortgage.
Common updates include lower
storage, a chair-height toilet or
an easy access bathtub or shower.
Finding a forever home is
possible. If you're determined
to age in place, research what
home features and modifications have been most beneficial
to other individuals and then
create a list of what you need to
stay in your dream home as
long as possible. Your future
self will be grateful you took
the time to think ahead!

Taxing
Matters
By Jim Wilson, CPA
Some Really Taxing Matters,
Indeed! Sound Off, What Do You
Think?
Did you watch the President
on Tuesday evening? Well, what
did he say? There is no doubt
that Mr. Obama is a salesman.
His ability to win your admiration is uncanny. He seems like a
guy who would come to your
house, prop up his feet and
watch the Super Bowl. In fact
his speech reminded me of a
story. A young milking machine
salesman stopped at a dairy
farm and presented his sales
speech. The farmer, who had
only one cow, was so impressed
he bought the milking machine
and the salesman took the cow
on trade. All of his sales ability
may not be received as enthusiastically as the farmer. Mr.
Obama was facing a Republicancontrolled Congress in his sixth
State of the Union speech. The
President took credit Tuesday
for an improving economy and
focused on proposals aimed at
advancing the middle class. But
at whose expense? He said “the
shadow of crisis has passed."
His extreme vision of "a grow-
ing economy, shrinking deficits,
bustling industry, and booming
energy production" is not
shared by most who heard him.
And I am not anti-Obama. He
appears to be a rather congenial
person. But he is no political
force.
Now do not get the idea that I
am a right-winged Republican;
in fact, I am a staunch independent. I support conservatism and
realistic policies to enhance the
growth of the economy, trade,
national security, cybersecurity,
obliteration of terrorist threats
and a reasonable approach to
tax reform. I am analyzing the
President’s speech, not the
President’s character.
Regarding the Economy, Mr.
Obama has been talking about
the nation's economic recovery.
Are you more financially secure
now than six years ago? My
study of business cycles and
forecasting reveals a cyclical
pattern in economic activity. We
have been down before. But
remember, what goes up, must
come down.
Mr. Obama is
throwing caution to the wind
and calling our modest recovery
a "breakthrough year.” The statistical evidence of a reduction
in unemployment can actually
be the result of people deciding
not to search for a job. The number of initial claims for jobless
benefits in the U.S. fell by 10,000
to a seasonally adjusted 307,000
last
week,
the
Labor
Department said. During the
previous week, claims were at
their highest level since the
beginning of June. Reuters
(1/22) And to mention reduction in gas prices, as if he had
anything to do with it is just
plain humorous.
Regarding Middle-Class
Economics the President proposed paid sick leave, and a lofty
goal of two years of post secondary education without cost to
the students. Well, he called it
“free” education, NOTHING is
really free. All taxpayers must
bear the brunt of give-a-way programs. To fund his ideas, he
suggests increasing the tax burdens on the wealthy. So people
who have invested, worked hard
and reaped the rewards of their
labor are to pay for those without the gumption to pull themselves up by the bootstraps and
get into the grind? Not a popular idea.
Regarding the Infrastructure,
new roads are in the offering
and the Keystone XL oil
pipeline, carrying oil from the
Canadian tar sands to the Gulf
Coast of the United States.
Obama has threatened to veto
the measure, saying his administration needs more time to
decide whether building the
pipeline is in the national interest. Nero fiddled while Rome
burned. Stalling does not create
an instant solution to a problem.
Most of his proposals sound too
good to be true—they are.
Regarding the expansion of
trade, deals must be made to
draw business to us and sell our
products to them—whoever
them is. He said 95 percent of
the world's customers live outside our borders, and we can't
close ourselves off from those
opportunities."
Well that is the soundest proposal he expressed.
Regarding National Security
he recognized that "Stopping
ISIS's advance" is a must. If we
do not end the violence, it will
come here.
Reduction of our military
might
is
not
acceptable.
Escalation of the ISIS irradiation is primary. So why disburse
GITMO? The inmates will just
return to their own people and
fortify more opposition. Treat
the guilty as guilty. Why should
they continue to live and take
lives of others?
Regarding Foreign Policy the
President is defending his new
approach to Cuba. Why? From
what have we been deprived as a
result of the embargo on Cuba—
cigars?
Who needs them?
Communism is already present
in this country, why invite
more?
Regarding Cybersecurity and
Technology Obama called on
Congress to pass cybersecurity
legislation — something Senate
Majority
Leader
Mitch
McConnell has indicated he's
open to moving on (unlike immigration policy). We must protect
our freedom of expression, freedom from the inquisitive and
malicious hackers who destroy
data and corrupt computers at
every level of business and personal life.
Regarding Justice and equality the President made a brief
reference to swelling problems
between the races gave and lip
service to the problems. But
there is only one way to stop
such in justice. Learn to live
together with respect and
acceptance. After all, can you
change your heritage? No. Can
you change your color? No. We
are all made in the image of God
and He is color blind and no
respecter of persons. Look at
others with the same compassion you would expect from
them. Please request our tax
preparation organizer. It is free,
really!

Briley launches campaign
“Only Vice is Briley”?:
Candidate David Briley listens
to kids. He may even use a
catchy vice mayoral campaign
slogan, "My Only Vice is
Briley," that a couple of kids
coined for him. "If not that one,
we'll have a good one," Briley
promised hundreds of friends
gathered to support him at Five
Points Cocina Mexicana.
On hand to celebrate the official launch of David Briley's
campaign were several other
office seekers. “It’s the campaign season,” Briley joked in
his welcoming remarks on the
mic. He recognized council-atlarge hopefuls John Lasiter and
Don Majors along with sitting
East Nashville district councilmen Anthony Davis (7) and Pete
Westerholm (6). Mayoral candidates Charles Robert Bone and
Megan Barry also stopped by to
sample the quesadillas, tacos,
tortillas and other popular
Mexican cuisine.

Hillsboro high senior partners with VU researcher on cave drug study
Hillsboro High School senior
Alex Jolly advanced to the
semi-finals in the Intel Science
Talent Search with his research
project, “Activation of Silent
Biosynthetic Pathways in Cave
Microorganisms
for
Drug
Discovery.”
The study was conducted
under the guidance of Brian
Bachmann, associate professor
of chemistry at Vanderbilt
University, who partnered with
the teen as part of Jolly’s participation in the School for
Science and Math at Vanderbilt
(SSMV), a program of the
Center for Science Outreach.
Participants attend classes
at the Wyatt Center on the
Peabody College campus one
full day per week. Seven stateapproved honors elective courses are offered, which include
interaction with Vanderbilt faculty.
“The SSMV is proud of
Alex,” said Angela Eeds, SSMV
director. “We are grateful for
the mentorship provided by Dr.
Bachmann and many other
Vanderbilt faculty who share
their time and research, enriching this unique partnership
between the University and the
MNPS school district.”
Bachmann, who leads a
unique systematic program to
search
for
novel
drugs
produced by cave-dwelling
microorganisms, is one of
many Vanderbilt faculty who
mentor students in the SSMV’s
hands-on learning environment.
Under Bachmann’s tutelage
as well as members of his team,
Jolly performed research on
bacteria from regional caves,
and advanced his knowledge of
the ability of cave environments to host microorganisms
that could produce unique,
valuable compounds.
“Participating in SSMV and
working with Dr. Bachmann
have made a tremendous
impact on me and my career
and education aspirations,”
Jolly said. “I gained invaluable
experience from working in a
research laboratory, and the
SSMV has pushed me to grow
in my confidence, abilities and
knowledge. This experience has
had a huge impact and will continue to help me significantly
on my way to becoming a professional scientist.”
Intel Science Talent Search
received more than 1,800 applications this year and selected
only 300 as semifinalists. Jolly
will receive a $1,000 prize and a
matching award will be sent to
Hillsboro High School. The top
three winners of the competition will receive $150,000 each.

Nashville Sounds unveil new logos, uniforms; appoint Chief Operating Officer
The
Nashville
Sounds
unveiled a modified color
scheme for their new logo as
well as complete new marks
and uniforms to be utilized during the club’s upcoming season.
The Sounds’ new logo, which
was initially unveiled in
October, has been modified
with a return to the classic red
and black colors that the team
has worn for the past 16 years
while adding in a new platinum
silver accent color.
“We heard loud and clear the
strong feedback of our fans
after our new logo was unveiled
last fall. We have made the decision to return to our traditional
red and black color scheme to
accompany the new Nashvillestyled logos,” said Sounds
owner Frank Ward.
The team’s new identity,
brought to life by Brandiose, a
San Diego, Calif. company, pays
tribute to Nashville as the
world-famous “Music City.” The
centerpiece of the identity is a
new guitar pick “N” logo stylized from an f-hole on a guitar.
The logos feature Music City
style lettering and the platinum
silver color is a reference to
platinum records associated
with the music industry.
“Nashville is the only entertainment city in America that
proudly claims itself as Music
City. Yet Nashville hasn’t had
an official badge they can wear
around the country that proclaims, ‘Music City is my
home,’” said Brandiose’s Jason
Klein. “The new logo scheme
achieves this.”
The Sounds’ new uniforms
will feature home white jerseys,
gray road jerseys, and an alternate black “Music City” jersey
that will be paired with black
pants for all Friday home
games to create a striking, allblack look. Fans will also enjoy
the baseball guitar emblem hat,
which will be worn during batting practice and in Sunday
home games.
Also, the Nashville Sounds
recently
announced
the
appointment of Garry Arthur
as the club’s Chief Operating
Officer.
“I am very pleased to have
Garry step into this role during
a very exciting time for the
Sounds franchise,” said Ward.
“His vast knowledge of the
industry and previous experience in opening a new minor
league ballpark are very important as we celebrate the opening
of First Tennessee Park and a
new era of
baseball in
Nashville.”
Nashville is Arthur’s fourth
stop in the Pacific Coast
League. He previously served a
combined 14 seasons as General
Manager in Sacramento (1999-
Aviation Golf Classic gives back
2004), Vancouver (1998-99), and
Calgary (1989-95). During those
tenures, Arthur’s teams recorded more than 1,000 wins and his
teams carry a 30-18 record in
eight postseason appearances.
Among the most decorated
executives in Minor League
Baseball, Arthur was the 2002
winner of The Sporting News’
Minor League Executive of the
Year award, a prestigious
award that is selected from all
executives among the 176 minor
league teams. He was also
named as the 1999 recipient of
the PCL Executive of the Year
award.
“Many of us longstanding
members of the Pacific Coast
League have held the belief that
with the right ownership and a
new stadium Nashville could
return to being one of the premiere franchises in all of
Triple-A Baseball,” said Arthur.
“A
committed-to-excellence
ownership and the magnificent
First Tennessee Park is now
here, and I feel my involvement
is both an honor and privilege. I
look forward to guiding this
young talented staff to ensure
that everyone’s experience at
First Tennessee Park is a memorable one.”
Arthur served as Senior
Vice President and General
Manager of the River Cats dur-
ing the team’s first six seasons
in Sacramento from 1999-2004
and oversaw the successful
opening of Raley Field. During
his tenure, the River Cats won
two Pacific Coast League
Championships (2003-04) and
four PCL South Division titles
(2000-01, 2003-04).
During his six years as
Sacramento GM, Arthur was
affiliated with the Oakland
Athletics organization, the new
parent club of the Sounds.
After departing Sacramento
at the conclusion of the 2004
campaign, Arthur served as a
consultant to the River Cats as
well as to the Pacific Coast
League, chairing its Scheduling
Committee. He has been associated with the PCL since
October 1988 when he was
named General Manager of the
Triple-A Calgary Cannons, a
position he held for seven seasons from until 1995.
After his Cannons stint, he
was named Vice President of
Japan Sports Systems, a Japanbased company which owned
the
Triple-A
Vancouver
Canadians, in November 1996.
He became General Manager of
the Canadians in 1998, and he
held that position until the
franchise was relocated to
Sacramento following the 1999
Triple-A World Championship
season.
Prior to his career in baseball, Arthur spent five years
working for the XV Olympic
Winter Games, which were held
in 1988 in Calgary, Alberta,
Canada. He began his tenure
with the XV Olympic Winter
Games as the Manager of
Information Systems (1984-85)
and was promoted to Press
Secretary (1985-87) in 1985. In
1987, he was appointed Director
of the Chairman’s Office for
the XV Olympic Winter Games.
For his efforts (the Games made
a $146 million profit), Arthur
received
the
Alberta
Achievement Award in 1988.
His professional career
began in sports broadcasting.
Arthur was a broadcaster with
CBC (Canada) radio and television for 12 years and spent one
year as Vice President of AllPro Sports Consultants, Inc.
Arthur will lead the entire
Sounds front office staff and be
joined on the club’s senior management team by Brandon
Yerger, Senior Vice President of
Fan Experience; Doug Scopel,
Senior Vice President of
Operations; Jason Franke,
Senior Vice President of
Corporate
&
Premium
Partnerships;
and
James
Rozzoni, Vice President of

resulting in:
· Sewage back up into the home
· Property damage
· Pooling water
· Low water pressure
· Unusually high water bills
· Loss of service until repairs are made
Optional Water and Sewer Line Protection Programs offered by
American Water Resources provide peace of mind and protection
from the high costs of repairs. Program highlights for Nashville
homeowners only include:
· UNLIMITED coverage and affordable program pricing
· UNLIMITED service calls

preferred provider of line protection
programs to educate and help protect

cost of unexpected repairs to their
service lines, which are not covered by
most homeowners’ insurance.

provider of service line protection
in the country and has protected
homeowners in Tennessee for more
than 10 years, earning over a 93%

NeighborHOOD uses arts for healing, education
NeighborHOOD (Hands on
Our Destinies) is a grass roots
start-up, non-profit organization that provides free classes
to teach underserved Nashville
communities to shape their
destinies through hands-on
education, entrepreneurship
and employment principles.
The literary, visual and performing arts will be used as
backdrops for healing and uniting the community.
The group meets Monday,
Wednesday and Friday from 12
p.m. to 2 p.m. at the Easley
Community Center on Edgehill
Ave., and is being taught by
Sharon Rollins, an avid knitter.
NeighborHOOD is planning to
start other classes too, like:
how to write books, make celebration baskets, do upholstery,
make records and make
clothes.
Right now, NeighborHOOD
needs teachers, knitting supplies and other support systems
(including musicians, actors,
etc.) that will help it become a
strong organization, thereby
helping Phoenix and other students realize the importance of
keeping the organization’s
theme, Hands on Our Destinies,
foremost in their minds.

Hey, Commissioners, leave Green Hills alone!
Many thanks to the author of
"Save Green Hills" (Ticked Off,
January 15, 2015). This was a
very thoughtful articulation of
what the majority of us who
live in Green Hills feel about the
continued unchecked development that has been embraced
by the Planning Commission
despite the wishes of the residents. This area of our fair city
has been attractive to prospective residents not because of
the development, but because of
the charming older homes and
the once-green hills. What's
being constructed now is not in
the least attractive and thrown
up so quickly I doubt they will
stand the test of time of the
homes built in the 1940s that are
being sacrificed to greed.
slowing everybody down ... this
is Nascar country!!
Watch out!

Remember others
I am flagging for you a situation that is incredibly NEGLIGENT and impossible for all
bus riders, but especially for
persons with physical disabilities and the elderly, to catch a
bus at the bus stop located on
Charlotte Pike at the corner of
Davidson Drive, in West Meade
near Walmart, Lowe's and other
stores. The stop is next to the
school property. Other than a
sign that says bus stop, there is
NO accommodation made for
smooth place where to stand, no
cover, no protection from the
elements. It is simply a drop
from the road, few rocks, and
bumpy ground with some grass.
I have personally observed persons in wheel chairs trying
even to get to the place and then
not being able to maneuver
their wheel chair to the road
because of the rise in the
asphalt at Charlotte Pike. One
time, an individual almost fell
on his back sitting in the wheel
chair in an effort trying to catch
a bus. Other individuals must
stand in rain, get their shoes
muddy, or simply find a level
piece of messy ground where to
stand. There is no bus schedule
or anything to guide potential
passengers. I have never seen
anything worse. I would think
that before a bus sign is placed
that measures would be taken
to ensure the stop is safe and in
the best interests of potential
bus riders.The bus stop needs a
safe place with cover and accessible for all who wish to ride the
bus.

I’m calling about the comments people have made about
the runners on Granny White
Pike. I was driving in the early
morning before sunrise, and I
saw a guy running with
absolutely no reflecive clothing
on. He was coming towards me
on the road, so I had to cross
over the road to the other lane. I
don’t understand why people
don’t run in the shoulder, or get
out of the way for car. Why
don’t they wear reflective clothing or bright colors? It’s
extremely difficult to see them.
And people keep getting hit by

Listen up, fools
Man, some of you readers
tick me off ! To the older
"Discriminate Hate" woman,
who can't get a receptionist job you don't put your age or graduation date on your resume
unless you just graduated.
Why? For exactly this reason so they can't punt you solely for
age. To "Snobs" - you can't drive
up to and park at the Governor's
mansion due to space and security issues. Duh! Check on the
internet before you go to special
events like that. To "$10
Minimum", bars can't survive
on people buying a Coke and
nursing it through 2 hours of
music. You don't have to spend
$10 on booze - buy snacks, or
just give it to them and call it a
cover charge in your mind. Or
stay home. Good music is rarely
free. (And if you're prone to
leaving your credit card behind,
bars still take cash.) And finally,
I'm not all negative. To the person who complained about the
poor services for domestic violence in Clarksville, keep up the
good fight. Perhaps a letter to
the Nashville or Clarksville
newspapers, or complain at the
DHS web site?
Door-to-door
I agree with the person that
commented
about
the
Tennessean trashing our neighborhood. They have stated:
“Our customers appreciate the
coupons.” However, these deliveries are left for non-subscribers. I’ve called the number
listed on the plastic sleeve in
order to stop the delivery. This
is effective for only a few
months. Now, I’m considering
going door-to-door as a petition
to get this littering to stop. It’s
ridiculous.
Taxes blues
The fact that Tennessee proclaims to have an income tax is
a lie. The political mumbo
jumbo wording says Tennessee
does not have a standard
income tax, but does have a tax
on income. Yes, Tennessee has
had The Hall Tax since 1929.
The Hall Tax is particularly
brutal on retirees and senior
citizens who have worked and
saved a lifetime to enjoy retirement. Yes, having been a productive citizen and simply hoping to draw some interest and
dividend income to assist them
through their retirement. So
what do you think The Hall
income tax does? It taxes interest and dividend income. That's
right, the hall taxes interest and
dividend income. The tax is
6%,. that's right 6% of your
retirement interest and dividend income.
There is absolutely no financial reason to retire in
Tennessee. There are some
guidelines for those over 65 but
they are dollar amounts that
represent a cost of living value
from another generation. The
current legislature would like
to phase it out over six years.
That's a start but what would
really help those already retired
is to put an immediate cessation
of The Hall Tax to every citizen
65 and older right now. This legislative session would be the
time The time is now. This Hall
Tax steps on the dignity of
every retired Tennessean.Now
for the legislators who can't get
their hands around this idea
you need to take a big peek into
the pork barrel to find a way to
replace those Hall Tax income
taxes.
Next, if action is not forthcoming every retiree in
Tennessee should set up a site
online (you can do it for free)
and warn companies not to
move to Tennessee. Tennessee
may not make you pay any corporate taxes but we will pass
that tax along to your employees. And God forbid they live
Hackers!
What idiotic Tennessee lawmaker made our e-mail addresses public record? I'd love to save
trees and sign up for eBilling,
but I'd rather not have my email address succummed to
daily spam! Someone needs to
fix this!
"Please note: As required by

want your email address

records request, do not register

Roundabout ruin
I hope the inventors behind
the roundabout had a Merry
Christmas, but they ruined it
for the merchants on Murphy
Road near the ill advised round
about. I hear sales are off thousands of dollars. The new
design might be pretty to some,
but it is far from practical. The
engineers who designed this
fiasco tried to put too much in a
small area, and the taxpayer
spent several million to not
improve conditions and to hurt
not only the businesses but also
the customers.
As they go on their merry
way, probably to mess up another community, the Sylvan Park
merchants and their families
will have to do with a lot less or
close down.
As former U.S President
Ronald Reagan said, "If the
Government says they are here
to help you, run." I paraphrased
it, but hope you get the point.

reading to them, petting
them, and holding their leashes
until they begin to respond and
become more comfortable. She
walks her charges through the
shelter, building their confidence in people by introducing
them to volunteers and staff
alike.
For those dogs most afraid of
doors and loud noises, Riddick
repeats this process daily, calmly reassuring them that they
and their surroundings are
okay. Her affection, empathy,
and compassion for these animals are obvious, as she graciously dedicates her time and
efforts to their well-being.
Riddick reinforces these routines on a daily basis and
makes these little ones a top
priority, often spending holiday
mornings walking dogs prior to
visiting her own family. She
positively impacts and touches
every person and animal with
whom she comes into contact.
Over the last few years
Riddick has not only made the
formerly overlooked and underappreciated dogs adoptable, but
facilitated hundreds of adoptions by spending time in the
shelter with the dogs and
adopters alike. Her natural
charisma and love for the pups
shine, as she frequently greets
and works with shelter guests
to find the perfect match for
their forever homes.
“Norma is our dog whisperer,” said Tallier. “She can calm
and put at ease those puppies
and dogs you see in the
ASPCA/HSUS
commercials
looking pitiful and defeated.
When Norma is here, our dogs
know they are going to get some
great care and lovin'.”
Among her other volunteer
endeavors, Riddick also serves
as a volunteer at the Bellevue
Library and was nominated for
last year’s Mary Catherine
Strobel Volunteer Award.
On the other side of the shelter, in the cats’ domain, Nan
Shinn has logged more than 800
hours in just a little over two
years of volunteering at NHA.
A retired medical office
manager, Shinn constantly
cleans cages and litter boxes,
organizes and distributes toys
and supplies, and washes and
folds aprons, and she currently
manages the cat showroom a
minimum of four mornings per
week.
Also, for the cats’ entertainment and local birds’ delight,
she replenishes the birdfeeders,
which are located on the other
side of the windows where the
cats can view them.
Concentrating her love and
attention on the older feline residents, Shinn believes they are
sometimes overlooked, as visitors are naturally drawn to the
kittens.
“I could spend all day in the
kitten room, but I don’t because
they receive plenty of attention. I focus on the ones in the
cages because they are the ones
that need the most help,” Shinn
says.
Diagnosed with multiple
sclerosis, Shinn cannot stand
or work for more than three
hours at a time, but never rests
when on duty. Even on days she
isn’t scheduled to volunteer, she
and her husband often drop in
to check and refill the birdfeeders with seed.
“Because I work about four
days a week, I get to know the
kitties very well. I can help
someone adopt a certain kind of
cat when I hear what he or she
is looking for. The more I get to
know each cat, the more I fall in
love with all of them,” Shinn
says.
Shin and her husband, Kim,
have six cats at home, and they
adopted four of them from
NHA. Two of the kitties, Felix
and Oscar, lived at the shelter
for many months and were
required to be adopted together.
As Felix was described as an
autistic cat, he would not allow
anyone to touch him.
“It took about six months for
Felix to get in my lap, and I
cried when he did. He still has
problems with anyone else petting him,” Shinn said.
In describing each of her
cats’ individual personalities
and behaviors, as well as those
she cares for in the shelter,
Shinn conveys her passion for
animals and compassion for
everyone.
A long-time volunteer of
Alive Hospice Nashville after
her sister passed away and hospice had provided wonderful
care for her, Shinn combined
her love of animals with her
gratitude by fostering the pet
therapy program for many
years and two of her cats participated as therapy cats.
“I finally felt like my vessel
was dry. It is difficult to be with
the dying for that many years. I
was happy to start at NHA with
a full heart. I have seen a lot
and hope to make a difference
in the future,” Shinn said.
Prospective volunteers fill
out an application and attend a
volunteer information session
and volunteer training.
Tasks the shelter relies on
volunteers to help with include:
animal socialization, clerical
assistance, donation collection,
and outreach programs, such as
the Mobile Adoption Unit,
Teddy’s Wagon.

becoming

volunteer

Humane
Association, visit: www.nashvillehumane.org/Support_Us/ or call

Riddick has logged the most hours of service of any NHA volunteer – close to 2,000. Since
2007 she has worked tirelessly and intensively with NHAʼs canine population.

Signal Hill is a wonderful family street in Belle Meade that is four minutes from either Green hills or the Belle Meade Plaza. Centrally
located in Belle Meade, this home is in the block between Lynnwood and Westview just south of Glen Eden . You will enjoy the beauty
of this old , established street as well as its convenience to shopping and play. My clients loved this home the minute that they entered
it- it was the perfect home for their growing family. Now , in California, they are offering their house for sale. I am tickled to present this

This three level four bedroom, four and a half bath homes faces North on Signal Hill. Built in 1999, this home has had one owner.
Upon entering this French style home, you will notice the gorgeous wide plank hardwood floors that take you form the spacious entrance

and the den are carved limestone. The ceiling heights on the main level of the home are ten feet tall, the second story and the basement
level of the home has nine foot ceilings. The kitchen of this home has custom made wood cabinetry . There is a center island with gas

the family den and the outside terrace and playground area.

give a nod to the French country style of the home. The living room is just off of the family room and
