What the ad that ran in education publications in 2005 may have lacked in details, it made up for with intrigue as far as Dan Kaufman is concerned.

“Wanted: President for unnamed state college in Lawrenceville, Ga.” Those nine words are what brought Kaufman to Gwinnett County more than 13 years ago. It put him on a path which has seen him become a high profile figure in the county, first through higher education and later through business, as well as routinely named one of the most influ-

School system officials said they have not established a timeline for the school board to review the five candidates and make a selection.

The board is expected to schedule interviews within the next few weeks.

District officials said their goal is to have a new superintendent chosen and in place by the end of the school year.

Buford City Schools officials said the field of superintendent candidates has been narrowed to five candidates who have been forwarded to the city’s Board of Education, who will review the applications and make a decision on who to hire. (File Photo)

Norcross seeking bids for trail related to greenway

By Curt Yeomans

curt.yeomans @gwinnettdailypost.com

Norcross officials are seeking bids for preliminary engineering on a pedestrian trail project that will be part of the city’s planned Beaver Ruin Creek Greenway.

A bid advertisement listed on the city’s website shows Norcross was awarded $380,000 in Livable Centers Initiative funding, which requires a $95,000 local match for the project, which is included in the Priority One segments for the greenway. Sealed bids are expected to be opened Feb. 7.

City officials are planning to hold a pre-bid proposal meeting with firms interested in submitting bids at 10 a.m.

Tuesday at Norcross City Hall, which is located at 65 Lawrenceville St. “The project proposes a multiuse trail adjacent to the roadways along S. Cemetery Street, Mitchell Road and Pinnacle Way, with connecting trails between those roadways,” city officials said in the bid announcement. “The project includes upgrades to existing sidewalks, landscaping, crosswalks and connections to the new Pinnacle Park.

“This project begins at Mitchell Road (and) Buford (Highway) and ends at Beaver Ruin Road in two locations.”

The bid advertisement shows the preliminary

engineering work would include surveying, planning, design, bidding and construction oversight services and that firms seeking to submit a bid must be pre-qualified by the Georgia Department of Transportation. They must also be familiar with LCI implementation project as well as GDOT’s Plan Development Process.

Firms that are interested in bidding on the project must submit their sealed proposals to City Engineer Erica Madsen.

A copy of the bid advertisement can be viewed at https://www.norcrossga. net/bids.aspx?bidID=95.

According to a draft copy of Norcross’ 2040 comprehensive plan that was released last month, construction of the greenway is listed as one of Norcross’ top implementation actions for the period between this year and 2024.

Officials have identified about 10 miles of trails for inclusion in the greenway, with a central spine connecting the downtown district with Cemetery Field, Pinnacle Park and multiple residential areas.

There are also several spurs and side trails planned and the draft comprehensive plan states the greenway would “take advantage of floodplain and publiclyowned land to create a green, natural recreation amenity in south Norcross.”

“The implementation of the Beaver Ruin Creek Greenway concept would be a major step towards opening up quality green space in this part of the city, as well as providing connectivity as part of the growing system of trails in Gwinnett County,” city officials wrote in the draft copy of the 2040 comprehensive plan.

Chamber introduces new board chairman, members

By Curt Yeomans curt.yeomans @gwinnettdailypost.com

The Gwinnett Chamber recently welcomed its new board chairman for 2019, as well as new members to its governing board.

Andersen, Tate and Carr partner Tom Andersen was introduced as the chamber’s new board chairman at the board’s meeting on Jan. 17.

Andersen, who was named the chamber’s Citizen of the Year last year alongside his wife Ethel, succeeds Garrard Group President and CEO Ron Garrard in the chairman role.

Garrard will stay on the board as a member.

“I am honored to succeed Ron Garrard as chairman of the Gwinnett Chamber for 2019,” Andersen said in a statement. “Ron was a wonderful chairman and it is a substantial task to live up to his example. I have been a member of the Chamber for over 30 years and in fact have been chairman previously in 1999 so I have some experience which I believe will help me during my term.”

Andersen said the chamber will have a key role to play in the county this year as the county residents prepare to vote this spring on whether Gwinnett should join MARTA.

“The Chamber has always been an essential element of the fabric of this community, and we will face many challenges in the upcoming year that will affirm the value of the Chamber,” Andersen said. “A couple of those challenges are the MARTA referendum in March and the need for the Chamber to adapt and change with a changing community.

“I am excited to work with Dr. Dan Kaufman, the incredible staff of the Chamber and the very talented, successful board members.”

Gwinnett Chamber President and CEO Dan Kaufman praised Andersen’s background and said he expected the new board chairman to do well in the role. Andersen has been active in the chamber for years and previously served as the board’s chairman 20 years ago.

“The Gwinnett Chamber of Commerce is fortunate indeed to have one of the region’s most distinguished citizens assuming the role of Chairman of the Board for 2019,” Kaufman said in a statement. “Tom Andersen … has been a leader in Gwinnett and metro Atlanta for many years, and he will bring to his new position a wealth of experience in both economic and community development.

My bucket list now complete Sometimes in this business, it isn’t so much what you know as it is who you know.

A couple of years ago, I wrote about trying to nail the final plank in my bucket list by meeting Bill Gaither. If you have recently transferred in from Uranus, you may not be familiar with the name. Bill Gaither and his wife, Gloria, are to gospel music what Michelangelo and Leonardo da Vinci were to the High Renaissance period, only the Gaithers are still alive and still making beautiful music.

The pair has written more than 700 songs, many of them classics including my personal favorite, “I’ve Just Seen Jesus,” a paean guaranteed to melt the hardest heart of the most avowed heathen.

The Gaithers are worldwide ambassadors for gospel music. Since 1991, they have been touring with their Homecoming Friends all over the world, including Carnegie Hall, the Kennedy Center, the Gates of Jerusalem and the old Georgia Dome, the largest-ever oneday assemblage of gospel music fans.

Dick In the column, I Yarbrough admitted my bucket list was pretty much planked-out. I had shot the breeze with presidents in the Oval Office. I had seen the sun rise in the Scottish Highlands and watched the Olympic Flame being lit in the ancient temple of Hera in Greece. I had embedded with Georgia’s 48th Brigade Combat Team in Iraq. I had painted a portrait that hangs in the state Capitol.

Yes, I had lived a blessed life. But I hadn’t met the Gaithers. My bucket had a hole in it.

That column garnered an unusually large number of responses from readers across the state who had met one or both of the Gaithers and/or had attended their concerts. There was not a negative comment to be found among the responses.

People talked about how gracious and down-to-earth the Gaithers are and how they live their Christian faith. If the respondents were trying to make me feel better, I appreciated their efforts, but the bottom line was they had met them and I had not.

Then comes an email from Jane Cox, a loyal reader in suburban Atlanta. She and her husband, Michael, not only know the Gaithers, they happen to be good friends.

They also enjoy my column and said they would be happy to facilitate a meeting.

God is good.

Getting it done wasn’t as easy as it sounds. It took a while. The Gaithers seem to be perpetual motion — touring, writing, producing programs. To get them slowed down long enough to meet either of them is like catching lightning in a bottle. But to know Jane Cox is to know it was going to happen. A petite, engaging bundle of energy, she could make possums fly if she was of a mind to do so.

Finally, it came to pass. In December, the Gaither Christmas Concert came to the Woodstock First Baptist Church and we were there to see it with the Coxes.

True to her word, I got to meet Bill Gaither before the show. God is really good.

To my delight, he was as gracious and kind as I had hoped he would be. Even though he was about to go on stage and entertain the awaiting crowd for a couple of hours, the man acted as if he had all the time in the world.

I had my picture made with him, which will go on the wall in my office alongside those of three presidents, five U.S. senators, nine former governors, Glenn Davis and Doc Blanchard (the only two Heisman Trophy winners to have played in the same backfield together — at Army), Vince Dooley and Cameron Charles Yarbrough, among others. You have to be special to make my wall.

Speaking of special, Jane Cox wasn’t through. After a highly entertaining and inspirational show and more conversation with Bill Gaither, she proceeded to introduce me to several of the show’s performers. They had not the foggiest idea of who I was but if I was with Jane Cox, I had to be special.

So, boys and girls, I am pleased to say this completes my bucket list. And what a way to do it. To finally meet a class act I have long admired and to have two readers-turned-friends determined to make it happen. It was a dream come true.

As I say, it is not always what you know as it is who you know. And I will forever be glad I know Jane and Michael Cox. You can reach Dick Yarbrough at dick@ dickyarbrough.com; at P.O. Box 725373, Atlanta, GA 31139 or on Facebook at www.facebook.com/dickyarb

Lawrenceville’s change defines its future When I think back on 2018 and the city of Lawrenceville, I’m amazed at how much we have accomplished. We’ve leveraged resources, engaged partnerships, attracted investments and charted a transformative course for our downtown in answer to the people’s vision to be “a talent-rich, regional epicenter of community.”

It has truly been a spectacular year for the city. The success we have witnessed is a result of numerous factors, but the common denominator is culture.

The city’s success today was built on a vision that came before it. However, executing a vision requires a different mindset from creating one. It requires a “can-do culture” of creative minds, and though these minds are bound by policy and law, they find solutions and flexibility within them to move the city forward. These minds combine business savvy with procedural skill. They are, in fact, what one of our development partners, Rick Porter, has so eloquently referred to as bureaucratic entrepreneurs.

To approach the city as a whole, you must first understand that it is a dichotomy.

Lawrenceville is both a utility company and a government service provider. We have the unique charge of having

With each of these achievements, it was the culture and attitude of the people involved – to think creatively within the confines of public policy - that helped each one come to fruition. From its elected leaders and staff to the public and private partners, board members, committee volunteers, business owners and citizens involved, Lawrenceville’s vision was made possible by the will of these individuals to find solutions while upholding the boundaries within which those solutions could be created.

Mayor Judy Jordan Johnson will be giving the Annual State of the City Address on Feb. 4 at 7 p.m. in City Hall. In that address, she will expound on these successes listed above, as well as provide a look into the city’s future. As we focus on 2019 and beyond, to the city’s bicentennial in 2021, I am encouraged at what our community will do and what our people will achieve. Please join us on Feb. 4 for the State of the City and engage with us to envision and execute, as bureaucratic entrepreneurs, together.

Nancy Pelosi lying about State of the Union WASHINGTON — House Speaker Nancy Pelosi has written President Trump to suggest that he postpone his State of the Union address, citing her “security concerns” over the ability of the Secret Service and Department of Homeland Security to protect government officials during the shutdown.

With all due respect, that is fake news.

Pelosi isn’t worried about security. She invited the president to deliver the State of the Union on Jan. 3, 13 days after the partial government shutdown began. She did not ask the Department of Homeland Security and the Secret Service before writing the president whether they had concerns about their ability to provide security.

Indeed, Politico reports that a planning meeting with the Secret Service was scheduled for the day after Pelosi sent her letter, and subsequently canceled.

If Pelosi had bothered to ask, Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen would have told her exactly what she said Wednesday on Twitter: “The Department of Homeland Security and the US Secret Service are fully prepared to support and secure the State of the Union.”

Pelosi is using her faux security concerns as a pretext to do something unprecedented and outrageous: deny a presi-

crease interest. Trump has now twice demonstrated that he can use the venue effectively. So, Pelosi wants to stop him from speaking from the rostrum of the House of Representatives directly to tens of millions of Americans and calling her out for her refusal to compromise.

Marc If she follows through on this Thiessen threat, it could backfire. Right now, Democrats are brimdent of the United States the ming with confidence because opportunity to come to Conpolls show that a majority of gress and deliver his State of Americans blame Trump for the Union address.

And now Pelosi is threatening to cancel the State of the Union address — a move that will be seen by many Americans as petty and vindictive. If Democrats continue with this cavalier attitude and refusal to negotiate, eventually public opinion will turn against them.

Trump should tell Pelosi that, while he appreciates her concerns, the Secret Service has assured him that they can handle security and that he plans to deliver his address in person, as scheduled. Let her withdraw the invitation. If she does, it will be a turning point in our nation’s history — a moment when the last vestiges of comity in Washington were destroyed. It may also be the moment when Americans finally realized that Pelosi cares more about hurting Trump than she does about finding a compromise solution and doing what is best for the country.

No good early test for cancer of ovaries DEAR DR. ROACH: In a recent column on screening tools, you made a brief statement about ovarian cancer. As a cancer survivor with metastasis to the ovary, I was hoping to have read something within the response on screening for ovarian cancer. What is your response to someone in regard to screening for ovarian cancer if she presents with symptoms?

— M.L. ANSWER: Ovarian cancer, like pancreatic cancer, is a dangerous and deadly cancer because it spreads early in its course, and its early symptoms are vague and often not recognized by the patient or are dismissed by her physician.

Screening, by definition, is looking for cancer or its precursor before there are symptoms.

Although many have tried (including several types of blood tests), there still are not yet any generally accepted screening tests for ovarian or pancreatic cancer. For this reason, patients and physicians need to be aware of the symptoms, as vague as they are, and be ready to evaluate those symptoms promptly in order to have a chance of finding the disease at an early enough stage to have a good chance at cure.

For ovarian cancer, those early symptoms include abdominal bloating, distention or nausea; loss of appetite; fatigue; and pelvic and back pressure.

Women who notice an increase in waist size despite poor appetite should be particularly concerned and should tell their doctors of their specific concern for ovarian cancer. Many times, a careful exam and history will be enough to make the diagnosis very unlikely, but other times a sonogram or CT scan may be necessary, especially in women at higher-thanaverage risk of the disease (older age, history of high-dose estrogen use and family history).

For pancreatic cancer, upper abdomen pain radiating to the back, unexplained weight loss and fatigue are common early symptoms. Jaundice (yellowing of the body, usually first seen in the mouth or eyes) without abdominal pain often is the first clear sign, and the cancer is unfortunately often quite advanced at that time.

As soon as a proven screening test becomes available, I will write about it.

Dr. Roach regrets that he is unable to answer individual letters, but will incorporate them in the column whenever possible. Readers may email questions to ToYourGoodHealth@med.cornell. edu or send mail to 628 Virginia Dr., Orlando, FL 32803.

Dear Amy: I cheated with someone who was also cheating on his partner. I left my partner; he stayed with his. I went to great lengths to change my life for him. He did not.

I got worn out by the wait (four years) and couldn’t take the emotional pain. Six months ago, I ended the relationship.

I am in therapy, which has helped me. I’m trying to learn how to love myself again.

I do not contact this person anymore. I avoid seeing him.

Sometimes, I’m overwhelmed by thoughts of him, especially if we run into each other (we work at the same place).

When this happens, I instantly feel uncomfortable and want to flee. The hurt feelings can be paralyzing.

It can take days to recover.

I believe I’m doing the right thing by keeping my distance, but how much longer do I have to cope with these “after” feelings — or is this just part of the healing process?

The only person I can talk to is my therapist — no one else knows.

I have no trusted friends.

I want to get my self-worth and self-respect back. I’m trying to take responsibility for my behavior.

Can you give me some insight?

Kaufman •From Page 1A in Lawrenceville’ and I thought, ‘Boy the opportunity to start from scratch is just too good to pass up,’” Kaufman said.

“So I applied for the job and was fortunate enough to get it.’ ” After more than 13 years in Gwinnett County, first as Georgia Gwinnett College’s president and later as CEO of the Gwinnett County Chamber of Commerce, Kaufman, 72, is preparing to retire.

Again.

He previously retired from the U.S. Army months before he was hired to be GGC’s first president in September 2005. He then left the college — although not through retirement — to lead the chamber in 2013.

Kaufman plans to stay in his position with the chamber until at least June 30, although he said he would stay in the role longer if his successor is not available to start the job at the beginning of July.

The chamber will be spending the next few months searching for Kaufman’s replacement, and a website for the search was launched Friday at www.gwinnettchamber.org/presidentceo-search. The deadline for candidates to submit resumes and cover letters through that site is Feb. 22.

“Over the next few months, Dr. Kaufman will be working with the search committee, comprised of select board members, on a smooth leadership transition,” chamber spokeswoman Stephanie Hannum said.

A soldier from south Georgia As a bit of back story, Kaufman is a native of Brunswick and he’s had three careers in his life, two of which have links to Gwinnett County.

His first, and longest, career was with the U.S. Army.

He graduated from the U.S. Military Academy at West Point, N.Y., in 1968 and received a commission as a second lieutenant of Armor in the Army.

He then served tours of duty in Vietnam with cavalry and armor units and received two Purple Hearts and a Bronze Star for his service.

He later served as a staff member working in the White House for the National Security Council and eventually worked in the Secretary of Defense’s office, serving as a special assistant for three of the Army’s chiefs of staff.

He eventually rose to the rank of brigadier general and began transitioning into his second career in education. While still in the Army, he served as both the dean of the academic board and chief academic officer at the U.S. Military Academy before he retired from the military in June 2005.

While he was still at West Point, Kaufman also helped develop Afghanistan’s National Military Academy.

Kaufman had accumulated so much recognition while he was in the military that the British government made him an Officer of the Most Excellent Order of the British Empire when he retired from the Army.

Education drew him to Gwinnett Kaufman didn’t stay retired for long.

Not long after he left the Army, he resumed serving in education in new way when the University System of Georgia picked him to serve as the founding president of Georgia Gwinnett College, which opened its

NEW PRESIDENT SEARCH BEGINS

doors in August 2006.

“Being the founding president of Georgia Gwinnett College was the highlight of my professional life (because it meant) being associated with that institution as we established it and grew it literally from zero to 10,000 kids by the time I left,” he said. “(GGC provided) quality undergraduate education at an affordable rate for kids who frankly aren’t children of privilege.

“They are kids who thought they’d never be able to go to college and yet they could and they got the support they needed, and they worked hard and they did it, so they are an inspiration.”

After he responded to the ad looking for a president to help establish a new college in Gwinnett County, and was hired to fill the post in September 2005, he was introduced to the community a month later.

“He’s had a storied and illustrious career,” Board of Regents member Richard Tucker, who led the presidential search committee, said at the time.

It was at that time when Kaufman first became involved with the chamber.

“I was the first employee that walked on the campus and, unbeknownst to me, I was an ex-officio member of the Board of Directors of the chamber because of my role as the college president,” he said. “It didn’t take me long to figure out the chamber was the place where I could tell the story about what was happening, or about to happen, at GGC and enlist support from community leaders.

“I always tell people it’s not an exaggeration.

We literally built GGC through the auspices of the Gwinnett Chamber because I’d always come to board meetings and tell them what was going on and if I didn’t have anything to report, I stood up and told a joke. I mean, I just wanted people to know they had a college here.”

Kaufman saw opportunity in his new connection to Gwinnett’s business community to help get some legs under Georgia Gwinnett College. Since the school was in the process of opening and did not have its accreditation yet, GGC could not initially distribute federal financial aid to students to help pay for classes.

The school’s president turned to the chamber and its members for help.

“Of we didn’t have any alumni that I could harass, so I literally stood up at a (chamber) board meeting one day and ‘You are all now virtual graduates of Georgia Gwinnett College.

Congratulations. Now pay up,’” he said. “So we started what we called a GGC Grant, which was in lieu of federal aid until we got accredited so that our kids could go to college and get aid if they qualified for it.”

Moving to the Gwinnett Chamber By the time Kaufman stepped down at the end of the school’s seventh year of operation, GGC

had gone from its initial enrollment of 118 students to 10,000 students spread across 40 fields of study.

He then jumped over to Gwinnett Chamber as its president and CEO in July 2013.

“The reason I took this job was I convinced myself, because of my role on the board, that the chamber could do for the entire Gwinnett community what GGC was doing for higher education, and that is being a forum where all of the parts can come together and really reason together and craft a common vision and then move forward,” Kaufman said.

“That’s the reason I talked myself into taking this job. It really is a continuation between the college and the chamber as I see it because of its connection to the community.”

Kaufman was quick to say, however, that whatever milestones the chamber has reached while he has served as its president have been the product of the staff that works for the organization. He said the staff works as a team and that any accomplishments attributed to him at the chamber could not be achieved with the work of staff members.

One of the chamber’s accomplishments that Kaufman said he’s particularly been proud of is its growth of programs to help small businesses. He said the chamber’s small business programs have proven to be highly successful in helping those types of businesses with their needs as they grow.

“Our members range from single entrepreneurs who are starting a business all the way to Fortune 500 companies so your value propositions, one size can’t fit all, you’ve got to be relevant to all of the different parts of the community,” he said. “So we concluded that we, in particular, wanted to focus on small business.

“So our small business initiative was one of the first things that we did when I got here, to help young entrepreneurs and business owners that are starting up because they can’t afford an IT person, they can’t afford an HR person, they can’t afford a lawyer, that kind of thing. So we developed programs and services for small business that helps them to do that.”

Kaufman also pointed out that Partnership Gwinnett, which is the chamber’s economic development arm, began its third five-year cycle, also known as called Partnership Gwinnett 3.0, in January 2017. He called the program a “great model for how to do economic development.”

Kaufman’s work as the chamber’s president hasn’t gone unnoticed throughout the region, however. He’s been an annual fixture on Georgia Trend magazine’s “100 Most Influential Georgians” list, making the list again this month.

“Since 2013, Kaufman has led one of the nation’s largest suburban chambers of commerce,

serving over 2,000 companies that employ more than 750,000 workers in Metro Atlanta. In addition, he serves on numerous boards including the Georgia Chamber of Commerce, Explore Gwinnett and the Aurora Theatre in Lawrenceville,” the magazine said in this year’s write up about Kaufman’s inclusion on the list.

A new home Although he and his wife have only been in Gwinnett for a little over 13 years, Kaufman said the county has definitely grown on him.

“It’s home now,” he said. “This is a remarkable — it’s not just enjoyable, it’s remarkable — community. Even in the 13 years that we’ve been here, we’ve seen it not only continue to grow, but change in lots of positive ways.”

He thanked for the community for supporting not only Georgia Gwinnett College, but also Gwinnett Technical College, and understanding the need for both schools in the county. Part of what he said he likes about Gwinnett is communityoriented mindset that said many people in the county have.

“Throughout the entire community, there’s this notion of ‘What’s good for the community?’ not necessarily ‘What’s in it for me?’ but ‘What’s in it for the community?

What’s good for Gwinnett?’” Kaufman said.

“That’s just not the case in a lot of other places and so that’s what makes it special, and even as the demographics have changed, that hasn’t changed.

“People still care about Gwinnett.”

Kaufman also said the county has done a remarkable job of bouncing back from the hit it took during the great recession. He described the recession’s impact on Gwinnett as the county getting “clobbered.”

He also said the county has been transforming itself from a bedroom community to a live, work and play community, particularly with a slew of city center transformations around the county.

But, with Gwinnett’s population nearing 1 million people with more than half a million more people expected to come to the county by 2040, Kaufman said the county hasn’t reached its peak potential yet.

“I’m one of those that thinks we’re just lifting off in terms of where we’re headed as the community develops,” he said.

Despite retiring from his position as the chamber’s president, however, Gwinnett residents should not expect to never hear from Kaufman again after his replacement takes over. He’ll still be around doing some work with the chamber board and philanthropic organizations with whom he is involved.

“I’m not going anywhere, I’m just retiring as chamber president,” he said.

Crime in Duluth decreased six percent overall in 2018 compared to the previous year, officials announced this week.

In the seven major crime categories — homicide, rape, robbery, assault, burglary, larceny and motor vehicle theft — the Duluth Police Department recorded 557 incidents in 2018, compared to 577 in 2017, marking the lowest crime rate in a three-year spread for the city.

“Working together through community outreach programs, home-

vehicle thefts showed the largest decrease, police said.

In 2018, there were 7 reported robberies, compared to 16 in 2017, marking a 58 percent drop. Motor vehicle thefts dropped from 33 in 2017 to 20 in 2018 for a 40 percent decrease.

Overall in 2018, violent crime — homicide, rape, robbery and assault— was down 5 percent, while property crime — burglary, larceny and motor vehicle theft — was down 3 percent.

Belcher said he “attributed the decrease to the efforts of both his officers and the citizens of Duluth.”

curt.yeomans @gwinnettdailypost.com

Gwinnett County police are asking for the public’s help in identifying four suspects in a burglary that happened in unincorporated Snellville earlier this month.

Police said the suspects allegedly broke into a home on Broxton Lane sometime between 9 a.m. and 2:30 p.m. Jan. 4. Surveillance footage captured images of one of the suspects allegedly entering the home through a rear window and then allegedly letting the other suspects in through a rear door.

The suspects allegedly stole about $1,900 worth of items from the resident of the home, including a PlayStation 4, two range

time of the burglary.

The first suspect is having an average build and about 5-foot, 9-inches tall who was wearing a dark colored winter coat, a white hoodie and jeans.

Grayson boys transformed into state contender

Lions to host former coach at showcase

Anyone who’s followed Grayson boys basketball long enough remembers the days before Grayson stopped posting losing records, before appearing in state playoff Finals Fours, before being ranked the No. 2 team in Class AAAAAAAA. That was before head coach Geoffrey Pierce stepped in for the 201213 season. Prior to that, Grayson’s boys basketball program was 105 games under a .500 winning percentage with at least six consecutive losing seasons on record. Those were not just losing seasons, they were seasons of single-

digit wins.

Pierce’s first season saw night-and-day changes to the Grayson boys program. The Rams haven’t had a losing season in his six years as head coach.

The worst record was a 13-13 record in the first season. Grayson made the state playoffs four out of Pierce’s six years at the helm and are all but confirmed to increase that tally to five times in seven years.

“We’ve come a long way, but we’re not satisfied where we are by any stretch of the imagination,” Pierce said.

By Taylor Denman Former Peachtree Ridge boys basketball coach Kieth Arrington didn’t stray from coaching high school basketball long after stepping down at the end of last season. He took over as head coach of T.L. Hanna High School’s boys basetball team in Anderson, S.C., shortly after Marcus Diggs was announced as his replacement at Peachtree Ridge.

It won’t be long until Arrington returns to the gym where he coached for 10 years in Suwanee. Peachtree Ridge’s annual Blue Collar Basketball showcase will host Arrington and T.L. Hanna on Martin Luther King Day, in addition to two more local teams: Dacula and Wesleyan.

T.L. Hanna is 13-5 overall and 5-2 in its region schedule this year.

Dacula is 7-12 overall and 4-2 on the season, while Wesleyan has emerged as one of the top teams in Class A-Private

CONFERENCE CHAMPIONSHIPS

L.A. Rams at New Orleans, 3:05 p.m. (Fox) • New England at Kansas City, 6:40 p.m. (CBS)

Potent offenses collide in NFC final Field Level Media Drew Brees turned 40 on Tuesday, and the New Orleans Saints quarterback will cap off his birthday week matching throws and wits today in the NFC Championship Game with Jared Goff, the Los Angeles Rams quarterback who is 16 years younger.

Brees is in no mood for nostalgia, but he knows better than anyone else that chances to win a Super Bowl don’t come around often.

“I think that’s been well communicated, really, as we’ve journeyed through the season and as we’ve hit every benchmark,” Brees said of being one victory away from his second Super Bowl appearance, the other when he won a title after the 2009 season.

“Don’t take it for granted.

Appreciate it. We are still a young team in a lot of areas, but we also have a lot of great veteran leadership.”

Goff said he appreciated Brees’ willingness to share some insights into the art of quarterbacking when they played together in the Pro Bowl last year.

Brees said he was simply “paying forward” what

other veteran quarterbacks did for him, guys like Doug Flutie, Trent Dilfer and Kurt Warner.

“I told myself at that time that hopefully I can play long enough where guys start asking advice from me,” Brees said, smiling.

In their 45-35 regularseason victory over the Rams in November, the Saints held a 35-14 lead late in the second quarter — scoring touchdowns on five of their six first-half possessions. Their only miscue came when Mark

Ingram fumbled at the New Orleans 22 with the game tied at 14, but the Rams wasted that scoring opportunity when they passed up a go-ahead, 34yard field goal on fourthand-4 and failed to convert on holder Johnny Hekker’s run around right end.

The Rams rallied starting late in the second quarter and put up 21 consecutive points to the tie the game at 35, only to have Brees connect with Michael Thomas on a 72yard touchdown with 3:53 left to seal the victory.

When Saints coach Sean Payton remarked after the game that he liked the matchup of Thomas going against Rams cornerback Marcus Peters, the defensive back fired back and said he was relishing a rematch.

Asked Wednesday about the verbal dustup, Payton discounted any bad blood, saying the Saints had come close to drafting Peters in 2015.

In the November matchup, Brees completed 25 of 36 passes for 346 yards and four touchdowns, and Thomas caught 12 passes for a career-high 211 yards to hand the Rams their first loss of the season.

In the rematch, the Saints will be playing without one of their best run-stoppers, defensive tackle Sheldon Rankins, who sustained a torn Achilles tendon in New Orleans’ 20-14 divisional playoff victory over the Philadelphia Eagles last week.

The Rams also will be without one of their best performers, wide receiver Cooper Kupp, who tore his left anterior cruciate ligament in Week 10. Kupp had 40 catches for 566 yards and six touchdowns in eight games this season.

IN BRIEF

North’s Bullock, Skinner Wolves of Peachtree Corners cheer teams commit to Mars Hill A pair of North Gwinnett ofwin championship fensive linemen announced verbal commitments to play college football this week.

T.J. Skinner and Justin Bullock announced they intend to play college football at Mars Hill University.

Mars Hill is an NCAA Division II school that plays in the South Atlantic Conference. North Gwinnett players have opted to play for Mars Hill in the past, including former quarterback Jimmy Urzua and linebacker Jake Stewart. Mars Hill was 4-6 last year with a 3-4 conference record.

The Wolves of Peachtree Corners competitive cheer program, a cheerleading club based in Peachtree Corners, has been on the rise in Gwinnett County for the past three years with the Gold and White teams coming off a third consecutive Fellowship of Christian Cheerleaders National and Grand Championships.

After recently returning from the competition in Orlando, Fla., the Gold and White teams won their third consecutive championships in their divisions, while the Wolves

Green team posted its strongest performance of the year with a fourthplace finish.

The Green team is made up of third and fourth graders, the White team is made up of fifth graders and the Gold team is made up of seventh and eighth graders. All attend Wesleyan School in Peachtree Corners. The program has experienced exponential growth in recent years, starting with 33 participants in 2017 to 45 in 2018 and 59 in 2019.

period, Nick Bligh stole the puck on the near-side boards and skated it into the offensive zone. Once the Massachusetts native ran out of space, he found Joe Widmar open at the front of the net. Widmar tapped the puck in for his first ever ECHL goal — and it came against his former team.

Atlanta doubled its lead at 13:22 of the second

period. Brett McKenzie fought for possession deep in the Greenville zone and came out of the corner with the puck. The former Vancouver Canucks draft pick lifted a pass to Jake Flegel at the point. The fourth-year defenseman rattled off a shot through traffic that sailed over the shoulder of goalie Garrett Bartus to give the Gladiators a 2-0 lead.

Allen helps Gators slide past UGA Field Level Media ATHENS — Kevaughn Allen scored 13 points and Florida overcame a second-half surge by Georgia to fend off the Bulldogs 62-52 on Saturday afternoon.

The victory boosts the Gators to 10-7 overall and 2-4 in SEC play. Georgia falls to 9-8, 1-4.

Trailing by 10 at the half, Georgia came out firing in the second stanza, scoring the first seven points before tying the game at 40 on a 3-pointer

by Collins Hill grad Teshaun Hightower with just over 16 minutes to play.

The Bulldogs would lead by as many as five points until the Gators answered, drawing within one before ultimately taking a 52-48 lead with 3:53 to play.

Georgia would not see the lead again en route to losing its third straight game.

A 3-pointer by Allen coming out of the timeout pushed the margin to 55-48 as Florida ultimately built the lead to eight points before finishing with the 10-point win.

two only two Gators in double figures. Jordan Harris finished with 10 points to lead the Bulldogs, who outrebounded Florida 39-28.

But Georgia committed 20 turnovers while Florida had just nine.

Florida’s defense in the first half proved to be on obstacle for the Bulldogs, who shot just 25 percent (6 of 24), including just 1 of 7 from three-point range.

The Gators had no such issues. Six different players combined to convert 7 of 13 three-point attempts, which accounted for more than half of the Gators’ total field goals (12) the first 20 minutes of the game.

In fact, Georgia didn’t score the first 4:51 until a free throw by Jordan Harris and didn’t account for its first field goal until Tyree Crump managed a layup with 14:20 left.

Florida led the entire first half, with the Gators building their lead to as many as 13 points on a three-pointer by Mike Okauru.

The Bulldogs attempted a late run, climbing within seven points on a tip-in

by JoJo Toppin but Keith Stone answered with a tough baseline 3-pointer with 27 seconds left to push the margin back to 10.

Louisville pummels Georgia Tech Field Level Media ATLANTA — Forward Jordan Nwora scored 18 of his game-high 25 points in the first half, and visiting Louisville coasted to a 7951 win over Georgia Tech on Saturday in Atlanta.

Nwora, a 6-foot-7 sophomore who averages 18.1 points, shot 8 for 12 with three 3-pointers in the first half. He finished 10 for 16 with eight rebounds and two assists. Nwora fell just short of a career-high 32 points Wednesday against Boston College.

“You’ve got to give Louisville credit, they played really well,” Tech head coach Josh Pastner said. “Jordan Nwora was excellent. He really got them going that first half.

It just kind of snowballed us that first half like it did against Clemson. We just dug ourselves such a hole and it was hard for us to get back out of it.

“What I told our guys is we can’t have happen is any hangover going into Tuesday’s game versus

Notre Dame. It’s a tough loss but it only counts as one in the loss column so we’ve got to be ready to get back on Tuesday versus a very good Notre Dame team.”

It was the eighth consecutive time that Louisville (13-5, 4-1 ACC) has defeated Georgia Tech.

The Yellow Jackets (10-8, 2-3 ACC) were playing without three regulars — point guard and leading scorer Jose Alvarado (groin), power forward Abdoulaye Gueye (undisclosed medical issue) and guard Brandon Alston (personal issues).

“We’ll keep grinding out and figure out a way,” Pastner said. “This was just a tough week for us. When you give guys like a (Marquise) Reed from Clemson or (Jordan) Nwora from Louisville, you let them get some confidence going early, the basket ends up being like you’re shooting into an ocean standing on a pier. It’s just one of those things.

“We’ve got to bounce

back and we’ll practice tomorrow and Monday and be ready to go on Tuesday.”

The Cardinals raced to a 43-16 halftime lead over the outmanned Yellow Jackets, who were held to their lowest total for a half and suffered their worst defeat of the season.

Louisville also got 13 points and five rebounds from center Malik Williams and 15 points and six rebounds off the bench from Steven Enoch.

Georgia Tech was led by forward James Banks III with a career-high 24 points in addition to 11 rebounds. It was his fifth double-double of the season and most rebounds since he had a career-high 14 on Dec. 19. Banks was 9 for 17 from the floor and blocked three shots. He was the only Tech player in double figures.

“Josh has done that regardless of who has been on the team,” Louisville head coach Chris Mack said. “I think (Banks) continues to get better and bet-

ter. We recruited him out of high school, I coached him at USA (Basketball). He’s a really good player. He’s really big and he’s got soft touch and draws fouls. Our post guys didn’t do a very good job with him. Give him credit, he sealed really deep.

“Their offense attack was four guys on the perimeter so he’s isolated a lot. He had a better night than we had defensively on him.”

Louisville shot 50 percent in the first half (17 for 34) to take a 27-point lead at halftime. The Cardinals benefitted from 10 Tech turnovers, which they turned into nine points.

Georgia Tech scored the opening basket, only to have Louisville go on a 9-0 run. The Cardinals also had a 7-0 run and quickly turned it into a rout with a 15-0 run punctuated by Nwora’s three-point play, which gave Louisville a 31-6 lead with 6:01 left before halftime. Louisville led by as many as 31 in the first half.

Irving, Celtics rally past Hawks Field Level Media ATLANTA — Kyrie Irving continued his hot shooting Saturday, scoring 32 points to lead the visiting Boston Celtics to a 113-105 win over the Atlanta Hawks.

finally surged ahead when Brown made a 3-pointer with 9:07 remaining to give the Celtics a 95-93 lead.

The Hawks went back ahead, 100-99, on a Len basket, but Irving hit a layup to kick off a 10-0 Celtics run that ended with another Irving basket with 1:11 to go.

explosion north of Mexico City

At least 67 people were killed in central Mexico after a ruptured gasoline pipeline blew up Friday evening, the country’s health minister said Saturday.

Jorge Alcocer said at least 75 others were injured after an explosion in Tlahuelilpan, a town about 80 miles north of Mexico City.

Most of the injured are in serious condition, Alcocer said.

State oil company Pemex said an investigation into the cause of the blast was underway. The company initially had said the explosion was caused by illegal taps in the pipeline, and Hildago Gov. Omar Fayad called on the community not to steal gasoline.

Residents in the immediate vicinity of the pipeline, which runs from the cities of Tuxpan to Tula, have been evacuated, Pemex said.

nation Trump proposes extending DACA, TPS protections to get wall funds

President Donald Trump proposed extending protections for Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals recipients and individuals with Temporary Protected Status in exchange for border wall funding in remarks Saturday afternoon. The proposed deal, however, will likely be dead on arrival due to a lack of support from Democrats.

The president’s latest offer links his demand for $5.7 billion for a border wall to the BRIDGE Act, legislation that would extend protections for so-called “Dreamers,” undocumented immigrants who arrived in the U.S. as children and are covered by the DACA program.

Total lunar eclipse and rare super blood wolf moon this weekend

By Ashley Strickland CNN

It’s not every year that a super blood wolf moon happens, so be sure to look up this weekend for one of the first skywatching events of 2019.

Most of the world will be able to catch a glimpse of this rare event, but especially North and South America, Europe and Africa.

But you may be wondering

Must read what that name even means.

Let’s break it down.

Basically, this rare total lunar eclipse is happening at the same time as a supermoon. But there’s a little more to it than that.

Lunar eclipses can occur only during a full moon, and this one is extra special because it’s also a supermoon. A supermoon oc-

curs when the moon is full and closest to Earth in orbit.

The moon will be in perfect alignment with the sun and Earth, with the moon on the opposite side of the Earth from the sun.

Earth will cast two shadows on the moon during the eclipse.

The penumbra is the partial outer shadow, and the umbra is the full, dark shadow.

When the full moon moves into Earth’s shadow, it will

darken, but it won’t disappear.

Sunlight passing through Earth’s atmosphere will light the moon in a dramatic fashion, turning it red.

Depending on weather conditions in your area, it may be rusty, brick-colored or bloodred.

This happens because blue light undergoes stronger atmospheric scattering, so red light will be the most dominant color highlighted as sunlight passes

through our atmosphere and casts it on the moon.

So where does the “wolf” part come in? Each moon has its own name associated with the full moon. In January, it’s known as the “wolf moon,” inspired by hungry wolves that howled outside of villages long ago, according to the Old Farmer’s Almanac.

This unique total lunar eclipse will begin at 10:35 p.m. today and end at 1:51 a.m. Monday.

8 locals nominated for McDonald’s games From Staff Reports Eight Gwinnett County basketball seniors were announced Friday morning as nominees for the 2019 McDonald’s AllAmerican Games.

Three of the selections

were from the Collins Hill girls team — Bria Harmon, Javyn Nicholson and Jordan Releford.

Brookwood’s Kiki Adams and Norcross’ Morgan Robinson-Nwagwu also earned nominations for the girls game.

The boys nominees included Buford’s Marcus Watson, as well as Elias King and Moulaye Sissoko, who both play for Suwanee-based Lincoln Academy.

McDonald’s recognized more than 800 top players

nationwide with nominations. The final rosters for the McDonald’s games will be announced next week.

The 42nd annual showcase returns to Atlanta this year at State Farm Arena on March 27.

•From Page 10A

Rams •From Page 10A of those four state playoff runs ended in the semifinals. Grayson has broken to 20-win mark four times in the previous five seasons and is on pace for another.

Pierce said the Grayson basketball team has high expectations for itself. The Rams expect to play well, now. They expect to make long runs and compete deep into March. That’s different from the days wen Pierce first joined the team when the Rams were happy to compete on a given day.

“The expectation from the first day was, ‘If you’re not going to go hard, and you’re not going to compete, you probably won’t make the team,’” Pierce said. “‘You definitely won’t play if you do.’ Everybody that’s put on that uniform since I’ve been here has done a good job of making those expectations we’ve set. It doesn’t take any skill to play hard.”

That philosophy was evident on Friday night against Archer at Grayson High School. Beating the Tigers apparently wasn’t as straight forward as it was the first time for the Rams. Grayson won the original meeting at Archer High School by 15 points, 77-62. Friday night’s game saw Archer lead briefly in the second half.

Grayson stalled out and used its bonus advantage to outlast the Tigers. Jevon Tatum led the team with 13 points, but the Rams also got 11 points off the bench from Jevon Boyd.

Grayson picked up its usual pace, however, against Stephenson. The Rams cruised to a 64-46 win at Stephenson High School and improved to 19-2 overall.

Grayson lost several crucial contributors from last year’s squad, including guards Travis Anderson and Nick Edwards, but players have filled in adequately. Tatum came on as a transfer from Tucker High School and junior Deivon Smith has stepped in to take a bigger role. Ian Schiefflin was a 6-foot-5 freshman last year, and is now starting for Grayson at the No. 5 spot in the lineup.

Pierce said the Rams’ work ethic is one of the team’s best qualities, but they’re overall still young in some areas. Grayson’s early struggles against Archer could be connected to Grayson’s intensity to start the game, Pierce said.

The Rams are used to having targets on their backs this season. After a Final Four berth and loss to eventual state champion Meadowcreek, the Rams entered the season with a talented roster poised to be one of the top teams in the highest GHSA classification. There’s no sneaking under the radar this year.

“I think (the target on our back) has gotten bigger, especially how we’ve been winning,” Tatum said.

“We’ll be all right, we’ll accept the challenge.”

Despite all of the success after the early part of the decade, there’s still one short-term goal Grayson has been unable to check off. The Rams have not won a region tournament under Pierce. The first time the Rams reached the region tournament finals, in fact, was last year when they lost to Newton.

“We’ve got a board in the locker room that has our goals listed on it,” Tatum said. “Region championship is one of them.

That’s been our goal since Day 1, when we’ve been working out.”

A region championship for the Grayson boys basketball program would be galvanizing, but it’s also crucial for setting up the easiest route for Grayson’s potential state playoff run.

The Rams were able to win two playoff games on the road last year and were two points from winning in the Final Four at Meadowcreek. Pierce believe playing at home throughout the playoffs could be a scale-tipping advantage for the Rams this year.

“We’ve been fortunate enough the past three years to go on the road and win games in the state tournament,” Pierce said. “We’re not worried about going on the road, but at the same time, when you’re playing at home, you don’t have to disrupt your routine. It just makes it more comfortable for you.”

weights, they’re just better than we are. That comes with (us) being young and inexperienced. … We have seven ninth- and 10thgraders in our lineup, (and Woodland has) got a really good team.”

Still, the Wolves had an opportunity down just 33-24 with two matches remaining and Darracott looming perhaps in the final match.

But any chance they had evaporated when Woodland’s Caleb Jones outpointed Todd Hill 10-4 in the 160-pound match, which made Darracott’s forfeit victory at 170 moot.

Nick Stonecheck also won his match for Buford at with an 11-7 decision over Colby Cochran.

Mountain View hoped to get off to a similarly quick start in its meet with Camden County, and had chances in the opening two matches, with Luke Hennebaul even with Code Herrin at 5-5 in the third period at 182 pounds and Harrison Spikes trailing Myles Starke just 3-2 late in the 195-pound match.

But Herrin pulled out an 8-6 decision and a takedown by Starke with less than 20 seconds remain-

ing sealed his 5-2 victory, which ended the Bears’ chance at building momentum.

It only got worse for Mountain View as Camden swept through the next 11 matches before Garrett Spikes finally got the Bears on the board with a pin of Hunter Malson in the final match at 170.

However, coach Jim Gassman wasn’t discouraged as the Bears made the first appearance in a state championship final for any Mountain View team. “(Camden is) an awe-

some team,” Gassman said. “They’ve beaten everybody in the surrounding states. We had a couple matches early, … (but) we didn’t pull it out. That’s a testament to (Camden). That’s why they’ve been No. 1 so long. They just find a way.

“But we’ve done something that no other team in our school has done, so I’m proud of these kids.

They’ve worked so hard to get here.”

Collins Hill 45, Brookwood 28 After falling in their

respective semifinal meets, the Eagles and Broncos squared off for third place in Class AAAAAAA, with Collins Hill pulling away to win 45-28.

Powell Gilbert (113), Brock Wheeler (120), Joey Felix (126), Clint Gilbert (132), Elijah Griffin (138) and Lucas DeSilva (152) and Tomari Fox (285) each won his match for the Eagles.

The Broncos individual winners were Chandler Mullis (145), Chase Hornsby (160), Gabriel Lee (170) and Justin Oldknow (220).

Unique movement Nonprofit arts and fitness studio Momentum Arts of Snellville boasts nontraditional classes

BY ISABEL HUGHES

isabel.hughes@gwinnettdailypost.com

As Imagine Dragons’ “Believer” pumped through Momentum Arts’ fitness studio, the dozen or so dance class participants clapped their green drumsticks together, the hard plastic reverberating to the song’s beat.

“Good, now forward,” Maggie Walls shouted over the music, facing the group as she bent down to demonstrate, beating her sticks on the studio’s rubber floor.

Though the loud music that filled the Snellville studio Tuesday night was typical of any high-intensity fitness class several weeks into the New Year, Walls’ Pound class was unique, much like her studio, which, in addition to offering adult dance and fitness class, offers youth theater, music and art classes.

A nonprofit, Momentum Arts’ goal is to provide the southern Gwinnett community affordable music, dance, theater and wellness programs, Walls said.

“We — I have four children who are teens who do music, dance, theater, all that stuff — saw the need for some affordable programming for the kids in the area,” Walls said. “I started offering programming for that age group and really just started with theater and got like 28 kids our first run with no advertising, so we saw very quickly there was a need for that. The kids programs just kind of built from there.”

Those programs led Walls to receive nonprofit status in July 2017, which, in turn, has helped her offer reduced-price adult fitness classes at the studio she opened in March.

“We wanted to offer drop-in, no commitment classes for people who didn’t necessarily feel comfortable working out, didn’t know how to start or maybe are different body types for the normal people that work out,” she said. “(We also wanted) them to have crazy things that they could try, because we do have Zumba, but you can find Zumba anywhere. So we started offering dancebased fitness that was a little more technical based.”

Those classes include Pound, hip-hop, Afro-fusion, Refit, Broadway Fit and others, which are unique simply because they are not mainstream dance classes.

But they’re distinct for another reason: the instructors.

“Our instructors are very varied in their bodies,” said Walls, who has been full-figured most of her life. “We have your kind of typical athletic-looking instructors, but then we also have a lot of instructors that are varying shapes and sizes. I teach most of the classes and I hear that all the time — people walk in and go, ‘Oh’ when they see me and then are surprised, but are like, ‘If she can do it, I can do it.’ They (also) know I’ve been through (weight and fitness) challenges and they know I know the modifications for body type.”

Walls said she often hears feedback that the differing body sizes are a breath of fresh air, compared to more traditional studios.

“We hear that a lot — that ‘I’ve gone to 100 places and I’ve never felt as welcome as I do here,’ or ‘I was always

I think it’s great that there are so many different body types that are able to do Zumba and Pound and it does away with the notion of the super-skinny ’80s model videos, so it’s very cool.”

lifestyles How to care for houseplants To Southerners, what ‘kilt’ you helps define your life Gardening columnist Tim Daly answers questions from readers: QUESTION: I have several houseplants. What steps should I take to keep them healthy and attractive throughout the winter?

— Mary from Lilburn ANSWER: Mary, houseplants are a great addition to indoor environments, especially during the winter. But heating systems can cause plants to dry out.

You should check them to see if any water needs to be applied.

To help combat the dry airs, use bottles filled with water and mist the plants.

Another technique is to place some pebbles into a saucer and fill with water.

Place the potted plant on top, and the water will evaporate and increase the humidity levels around the plants.

The many types of houseplants have different light requirements. Some can take direct sunlight in windows where others prefer less. However, regardless of their light requirements, all will grow in the direction of light. Give houseplants a half turn every month, so they don’t lean too much in one direction.

Several insects can trouble indoor plants, most commonly aphids and mealybugs.

For control, apply insecticidal soaps, which are similar to dishwashing detergent but formulated as an insecticide. It has low toxicity and is considered organic. Make sure good coverage of the leaves, both

QUESTION: I recently had several trees removed from my property. The tree care company left me with a pile of wood chips. Can I till them into the soil in my garden as an organic soil amendment?

— Bob from Lawrenceville ANSWER: Bob, avoid incorporating the fresh wood chips into your soil.

They need to break down and decompose, which is done by many types of microbes. During the decomposition process, they will take nutrients out of the surrounding soil and cause nutrient deficiencies.

Allow the wood chips to decompose before using as an amendment. The time to do so may take several months to a year or more depending on the type of wood, environmental conditions and other factors.

However, the chips can be spread on top of the soil as a mulch, which will not have much impact on the nutrients.

QUESTION: I have several large trees and have noticed green to gray material growing on the trunks.

Is it a type of fungus? Will it

harm my tree?

— Laurie from Sugar Hill ANSWER: Laurie, what you are observing are lichens, which are a combination of a fungus and algae in a symbiotic relationship.

Many types exist, and they can be seen growing on large rocks and around Stone Mountain. They do not feed on the trees but obtain nutrients from rain washing them off the bark.

Lichens on the large trunks and limbs usually do not indicate a problem with the tree and are quite normal.

However, if the coverage is excessive, that is, most of the bark has them, and they are on the smaller branches, it could signify the tree is in distress. Depending on the number of lichens, you may or may not have a problem.

If you are concerned, have a certified Arborist assess the tree. You can find one through the Georgia Arborist Association at georgiaarborist.org.

The UGA Extension Gwinnett 2019 annual plant sale is underway. Many excellent plants are available at affordable prices.

Choices include blueberries, gardenias, ferns, goji berries and many others. To obtain an order form, one can be downloaded from the Extension website at www. ugaextension.org/gwinnett, or you can have one mailed to you by contacting the Extension office.

ENTER TO WIN A FAMILY 4-PACK!

Not that it should have mattered. But I’m Southern, so it did. It mattered a lot.

As long back as I can remember, whenever someone told Mama and Daddy about a person who all a sudden just up and died, the conversation would, with some variation, go like this: “Did you hear ‘bout Jamison Jackson? Found him dead this morning.”

“Oh no! Are you serious?” Mama or Daddy would ask. Not that anyone would joke about someone being dead, but when a surprise comes, we often say things that don’t make a lot of sense.

Then, without variation, the next question would be, “What kilt him?”

Now, “kilt” is an Appalachian word. On the coast or in the Mississippi Delta, people will be more dignified and say “killed” or ask, “What happened?”

Yankees don’t ask this question. Dead is dead to them. It doesn’t matter how it happened. He died. End of story. But with Southerners, the end of the story needs to be detailed. The way someone dies is part of their story. The final act.

So, that’s how it came to be that I started tracking down what “kilt” a songwriter named Roger Bowling back on Christmas Day of 1982. Bowling was one of the finest storytelling songwriters to come through Nashville in the 1970s. He rose up out of Harlan, Ky., a place that is fabled for the hard times it’ll put in a man and the stories that will be born out

Ronda Rich of a man born in a place where the hours of daylight are short and the coal dust blackens the skies. Underneath the scab of surviving such difficult times will always be a tender sore that gives forth to rich storytelling.

Bowling’s first No. 1 record was the 1975 hit, “Blanket on the Ground.”

He also co-wrote my favorite Tammy Wynette/George Jones duet, “Southern California.” But it would be a 1977 record he co-wrote with Hal Bynum that would become his legacy, the song that carved his name into Nashville greatness.

“Lucille” would also revive the nearly dead career of Kenny Rogers. Two years later, he co-wrote another Kenny Rogers smash, “Coward of the County.”

Both are extremely wellcrafted story songs. In our minds, we can see the poor farmer who mourns at the bar over Lucille who left him or pretty Becky whose assault made a hero out of her formerly cowardly husband. Billy Currington re-recorded “Lucille” a few years ago and it is as well done as the Kenny Rogers version.

Back to what kilt him.

He was only 38 years old.

The New York Times, usually completely informative about death, reported that he was found dead at his home, an autopsy was performed, results still unknown, but it was believed to be natural.

Bowling, at the time, was living in the picturesque mountain town of Clayton, Ga. As long as you were born in Georgia, you will always know someone else born in Georgia who knows the story. So, I called one of my dearest friends and favorite people who grew up in Clayton.

“Aw, Roger. He was a good ‘un,” my friend said, his voice misting a bit with the recall. “Me and him played many a poker game together. He had him a little juke joint place called The Pickin’ Parlor. We had a lot of fun there, too.”

He told a couple of stories then I asked, “What kilt him?”

“Well, I don’t think he meant to do it but he went and done it anyway.

There was some drinkin’ involved. Maybe cold medicine, too. It was surely accidental.”

I was stunned. I didn’t expect that. But as I mulled over it later, I realized that we Southerners are right: how death comes is significant to a person’s life story.

A challenging beginning can lead to a hard ending.

That’s how the story sometimes goes.

Public critique harms the one giving it Praise in public, critique in private. It’s Management 101. Most decent leaders know it’s detrimental to reprimand employees in public. It’s unkind and does not improve performance.

What’s less talked about, though, is the impact public critique has on the person who is giving it.

I was recently working with a team. There was one manager who, despite his promises to do otherwise, often critiqued his people in front of their peers.

One day, the team got the last laugh.

Forget Perfect

We got a memo about it last week, or weren’t you aware of that?”

Intelligence in Organizations at Rutgers University, explains in the Harvard Business Review how criticism triggers anxiety and negative emotions. When we’re told about things that we’re doing wrong, Goleman says, it “shuts us down, puts us on the defensive, and narrows our possibilities to rescue operations.” When it happens in public, you’re more concerned about how you look in front of your peers than you are about rectifying any wrong. You can’t hear the facts; all you feel is the emotional sting.

Managers who cause this emotional sting wind up paying a price. Here are three reasons why critiquing in public circles back to hurt the boss:

Five behaviors to better your life in the new year Let’s not call these “resolutions.” It’s late January. You’ve probably already made your resolutions. Heck, you’ve probably already broken them.

Let’s just say that incorporating these five specific behaviors into your daily routine during 2019 could dramatically improve your life.

• Read a book. I know — some of you read a book a week. Others listen to audiobooks during their daily commute, which in Atlanta means you can get through “The Lord of the Rings” in two days.

But I’m always surprised to hear how many busy people, who used to love to read, can’t seem to find time for it anymore. Slow down. Pick up a good book and savor it for a few hours. Your sanity will thank you.

• Dial back on social media. If you “don’t have time” to read, consider spending less time on social media. That should free up about 23 hours a day.

I attended a class at church recently on depression. (I don’t know why they have to have classes on that stuff; we seem to do pretty well at being depressed on our own.) Turns out there’s a significant link between depression and social media: The more you use it, the worse you tend to feel about yourself.

For starters, try disconnecting your accounts from your phone, so they’re not always pinging while you’re trying to have an actual life.

• Repair a relationship. Speaking of social media, how many old friends have you unfriended lately over politics? Or college football?

Maybe you got in an argument during Christmas dinner and told somebody off (after you’d opened their present, of course).

In 2019, consider reaching out to one of those people and re-establishing that friendship — not on social media, but in real life. Apologize as necessary for your own

Rob Jenkins words, and forgive them for theirs, even if they don’t ask. Few things in life are as precious as friends.

• Serve somebody.

One of the best ways to feel joy is by serving others. I say that as someone who tends to be self-centered and curmudgeonly, but who has learned from experience that it’s true.

If you’re not sure what you can do, check out JustServe.org (or download the app), which lists dozens of service opportunities in your area.

While you’re at it, why not involve the whole family, including those surly teenagers? Few things are as effective at attitude adjustment as a service project, and most of the others are illegal.

• Be grateful. Admittedly, this last one is more a mindset than a behavior. But instead of focusing on the negative, think about all you have to be grateful for. Yes, I know some people have more, but that’s beside the point. If you haven’t noticed, lots of other people have less.

The point is being grateful is a choice. In 2019, choose gratitude — and see what it does for your attitude.

SUWANEE City seeking proposals for Art on a Limb The city of Suwanee is seeking proposals and samples from artists willing to go out on a limb for the city’s finders-keepers art-innature program.

A Suwanee tradition, Art on a Limb is an award-winning, month-long program designed to celebrate and bring attention to the arts, as well as the natural beauty of the Suwanee parks and greenways. Since 2005, the city has hidden two pieces of artwork — created especially for the city of Suwanee — daily throughout the month of May within city parks and along the greenway; those who find the trail treasures get to keep them.

Past Art on a Limb pieces have included fairy doors, clay birds and orbs, small paintings on canvas, pieces of the city’s old water tower, magnets, gourds painted to look like birds, the Suwanee S shaped from metal and pottery pieces.

Artistic proposals for this year’s program will be accepted through Feb. 22.

Guidelines and an application are available at suwanee.com.

Cookie delivery business opens in Peachtree Corners

By Curt Yeomans

curt.yeomans @gwinnettdailypost.com

A cookie delivery shop based in Austin, Texas, has arrived in Peachtree Corners.

Tiff’s Treats recently opened its 46th store in the Peachtree Corners Town Center development. The store is located at 5230 Town Center Blvd., Suite 130, in Peachtree Corners.

The store is Tiff’s Treats’ first new location to open this year, and its grand opening came after the opening of 10 new stores in 2018. The company has been undertaking a rapid expansion in Georgia, Texas and Tennessee.

“We are grateful for the warm support Atlanta has given each of our locations and are excited to continue our Atlanta expansion into Peachtree Corners.” Tiff’s Treats co-

founder Tiffany Chen said in a statement. “We are thrilled to be able to offer even more Atlantans our warm cookies.”

The idea behind Tiff’s Treats is to make and deliver warm, fresh baked-to-order cookies and brownies to homes or offices within an hour of being made. With the opening of the Peachtree Corners location, there are now seven Tiff’s Treats stores in the Atlanta area.

“At GMC, giving back is a part of our mission to transform health care in our community,” said Cathie Brazell, Gwinnett Medical Center’s vice president of operations.

“While an event like Paint Gwinnett Pink meets the needs of our community and reflects our commitment to providing the highest quality care, it puts our patients on equal financial footing as it relates to access to prevention and helps advance technology.

At GMC, we continually strive to improve patient experience, directly and indirectly.”

MONDAY 8 p.m. on FOX The Resident Quovadis may seem like an impervious, monolithic corporation in many respects, but its attorneys and executives go up against the intimidating Dr. AJ Austin (Malcolm-Jamal Warner) in the new episode “Operator Error.” One of the company’s medical devices has failed on a former Chastain employee, triggering an investigation. Meanwhile, Devon (Manish Dayal) turns his attention to a patient suffering from mysterious stomach pains. Elsewhere, Nic (Emily VanCamp) bonds with her new clinic partner (guest star Miles Gaston Villanueva). Matt Czuchry also stars.

Actually, calling the four-nightsa-week series a talk show is stretching things, too, since this revamped “Conan” will put the emphasis on comedy bits instead of multiple guest interviews. The results, the host says, will make for a more “lean and agile” show, as well as provide content for related digital platforms.

Investigators initially assume the daughter has been kidnapped by Camile’s killer, but the truth turns out to be far more twisted.

GCPS celebrates National Mentoring Month

BY HEATHER DARENBERG Staff Correspondent

Gwinnett County Public Schools and its Community-Based Mentoring Program are celebrating National Mentoring Month during January.

In addition to spotlighting the importance of mentoring, GCPS is committed to increasing the number of quality mentoring opportunities in order to connect more young people with caring adults.

Currently, GCPS has mentoring programs that connect potential community mentors with male and female students in grades four through 12 to provide guidance, encouragement and support to help the students become successful young adults, both in and out of school.

This year, the program extended its outreach, beginning an emphasis on the mentoring of Hispanic students.

“Mentoring is a critical part of developing positive relationships within our community

— mentoring is proven to have a positive effect on academic, social and economic outcomes for our young people,” said James Rayford, director of the school system’s Community-Based Mentoring Program.

Studies show mentors can play a powerful role in providing young people with the tools to make responsible choices, attend and engage in school, and reduce or avoid risky behaviors.

In turn, these young people are 55 percent more likely to be enrolled in college, 81 percent more likely to report participating in sports or extracurricular activities, 78 percent more likely to volunteer regularly in their communities, and more than twice as likely to say they held a leadership position in a club or sports team Gwinnett’s communitybased mentors are 21 or older. Those interested in serving as a mentor should attend a Volunteer Mentor Training Session.

PR firm founder named Public Relations Society of America fellow

BY ISABEL HUGHES

isabel.hughes @gwinnettdailypost.com

The founder of a Norcross-based public relations company was recently elected into the

Public Relations Society of America’s College of Fellows.

Jennifer Grizzle, owner and founder of The PR Studio Inc., is one of 11 new fellows who were welcomed into the college

— an honorary organization within PRSA made up of more than 350 senior practitioners and educators — in late 2018.

Fellows are chosen for leaving a “significant footprint” on the public

relations profession, a news release said.

“The College of Fellows inductees exemplify excellence and leadership in our profession,” said PRSA 2018 National Chair Anthony D’Angelo. “They

have each established a lasting legacy through their outstanding service as counselors, mentors and role models. I congratulate them and hope that their achievements will encourage all members of PRSA and Public Relations Student Society of America to ‘aspire higher’ in their own careers.”

Grizzle, who founded her company in 1996, was also inducted into PRSA’s Georgia Order of the Phoenix society and the Georgia PR Hall of Fame in November.

Over the years, she has created award-winning public relations campaigns for clients in a variety of industries, including helping launch the Birdhouse Artfest — a Habitat for Humanity benefit.

She has served on the board for the March of Dimes Achievement in

Radio Awards, and has been a longtime lector ministry coordinator at her church.

Grizzle is past president of PRSA Georgia and served as the Georgia chapter co-chair for the PRSA International Conference in 2015. She created the chapter’s Independent Counselors Forum in 1998 — the chapter’s first Special Interest Group, which became a model for other groups. She was the first recipient of PRSA Georgia’s Luminary Star Award and was also named the Chapter’s Shining Star. Grizzle earned her accreditation in public relations in 2009.

Grizzle received her bachelor’s degree from Georgia State University and is a graduate of the Buckhead Business Association Leadership Development Class.

Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners Chairman Charlotte Nash will review 2018 achievements and present the vision for 2019 and beyond.
