  Mr. BURCHETT. Madam Speaker, today I recognize longtime East 
Tennessee journalist Georgiana Vines as she celebrates her 80th 
birthday this week.
  Over the last five decades, Georgiana has had a successful career as 
a reporter and editor. She retired from full-time work in 2005 but 
continues to cover East Tennessee news and politics as a newspaper 
freelancer. In addition to working in the news industry, Georgiana has 
spent a great deal of time teaching and sharing her experience with 
future journalists at the University of Tennessee's College of 
Communications and Information.
  I am honored to call her my friend, and I know I speak for many in 
East Tennessee when I say Happy Birthday, Georgiana.
