Officials spar over election materials compliance

BY CURT YEOMANS curt.yeomans@gwinnettdailypost.com

Are Gwinnett’s cities trying to comply with a federal mandate requiring them to provide election materials in Spanish? Well, it depends on who you ask.

The Department of Justice informed Gwinnett County officials in December that they had to comply with Section 203 of the Voting Rights Act, which requires communities that have large numbers of voters who speak the same non-English language to provide election information in that language.

That requirement includes the cities as well.

The immediate question is whether the cities, whose elections this fall will be the first held in the county since that requirement was announced, and the county are doing enough so far to be in compliance with the law.

City officials say they are, but the Georgia Association of Latino Elected Officials and

Man convicted of robbing Norcross anime store

BY CAILIN O’BRIEN

cailin.obrien @gwinnettdailypost.com

A former employee of a

Norcross anime shop has been convicted of robbing the store at gunpoint two years ago.

Bereket James Lewis

walked into Best Anime Shoppe on Shackeford Road with a gun at about 5:20 p.m. July 6, 2015.

Another employee at the shop was working in the back of the business at the time. Suddenly, he felt something poking into the back of his neck.

“Where is the money,” he heard a voice say.

At first, the employee

thought it was a joke. He recognized Lewis’ voice — they used to work at Bereket James Lewis the shop together.

Then, he turned around and saw that Lewis, completely covered, was

pointing a gun at him.

Lewis forced the employee into the front of the store where he turned the gun on a second employee working there. Then, he took about $70,000, two mini iPads and both victims’ phones and wallets.

Gwinnett County police eventually tracked one of the iPads to the Atlanta area where Lewis used to

live with his mother.

On Thursday, a jury found Lewis guilty of two counts of armed robbery, two counts of possessing a firearm during the commission of a felony, a count of theft by taking, a count of false imprisonment and a count of kidnapping. He’s scheduled to be sentenced at a later date.

Solar eclipse will bring mid-day darkness

In a little under a month, the moon is going to leave Gwinnettians in near total darkness — in the middle of the afternoon.

Residents, as well as state and NASA officials, are preparing for a total solar eclipse that will not only cross the United States for the first time in 99 years, but also cut through the northeast corner of Georgia.

A solar eclipse means the moon blocks all or part of the sun, during the day.

“The projected path of the eclipse will run diagonally through the center of the United States starting in northern Oregon, crossing through Nebraska, Illinois,

EYE CARE SINCE 1971 NOW IN PEACHTREE CORNERS

Tennessee, Georgia and making it’s most southern appearance in South Carolina,” state officials said on Georgia.gov.

“Although this is the projected path of the eclipse, it may be visible from other areas depending on weather and visibility during that particular time of day.”

Gwinnett will only get a partial eclipse, but communities in northeast Georgia mountains, such as the cities of Blue Ridge, Cleveland, Clayton, Cornelia and Toccoa, as well as lower communities, such as Hartwell, Royston and Gumlog, are in the “path of totality,” which means total darkness just after 2:30 p.m.

Georgia’s state parks system is planning to commemorate the eclipse between 1 and 3 p.m. Aug. 21 with a Solar Eclipse Festival at Tallulah Gorge State Park, at 338 Jane Hurt Yarn Drive.

The cost to attend the festival will be $5 for parking.

“Schools and teachers are encouraged to bring their students for prime viewing,” officials said on Georgia. gov. “There will be stations where students and visitors can build viewing devices and participate in activities while waiting in anticipation. Experts will be at the festival to answer all of your

questions about the eclipse.”

Anyone heading north on Interstate 85 in South Carolina, including Clemson, Anderson and Greenville, will also be in the path of the total solar eclipse.

People closest to the center of the path of totality, which roughly includes Clayton, Clemson and Anderson, will experience the longest eclipse at more than two and a half minutes.

Further out, the eclipse will be shorter.

State officials said, for example, that the eclipse will begin in the city of Clayton at about 1:05 p.m., but “totality,” which is when the sun is completely blocked by the moon, won’t begin until about 2:35 p.m. Totality will last three minutes, and the eclipse will end at 4:01 p.m.

By comparison, the total eclipse is expected to last for two and a half minutes at Tallulah Gorge State Park.

Although Gwinnett is itself not in the path of totality, it is close to it, and the closer a community is to the path, the less sunlight will be seen during what will officially be a partial solar eclipse.

“Observers outside this path (of totality) will still see a partial solar eclipse where the moon covers part of the sun’s disk,” NASA officials

said on eclipse2017.nasa. gov.

An interactive map available at NASA’s solar eclipse website shows the sun will be 98.25 percent obscured during the eclipse, while it will be 98.67 percent obscured in Sugar Hill and Buford.

By comparison, the sun will only be 97.95 percent obscured in the Snellville area.

The times for when the eclipse will be visible in Gwinnett are virtually the same as the times for Clayton. The maximum obscurity in the county takes place at 2:37 p.m., according to NASA’s interactive map.

NASA has also posted several bits of information about eclipses, including tips on planning an eclipse party, on its special website for the event.

One of the biggest tips the agency has for anyone who plans to watch the eclipse is to wear special eclipse glasses, which filter out harmful sunlight. NASA officials said the only time when it is safe to look toward the sun during an eclipse is when it is totally blocked by the moon.

Other tips include using pinhole projectors or telescopes with solar filters on them.

3 Common Eyelid Rejuvenation Questions I get asked a lot of questions by our patients about eyelid surgery. The most common ones are about discomfort, recovery and appearance. Here are the three common eyelid rejuvenation questions and their answers.

Does it hurt? You can expect some discomfort from your procedure for the first day or two, which Tylenol and ice packs should help. Generally, the area is moderately sore for a few hours and then gets better. If needed, you may be given a prescription for a more potent pain reliever. However, most of our patients only experience mild discomfort during their recovery.

How much down time is there after surgery? You can go out or return to work a couple days after surgery, as long as it does not involve lifting or straining, is not in a dirty or unclean environment and you feel comfortable driving (some patient’s experience blurry vision for a day or so after surgery due to dryness or swelling). But remember, your eyelids will be swollen and bruised, so be prepared for questions!

Will I look like I’ve had “work” done? Absolutely not. The goal of our ophthalmologists during eyelid surgery is to help you regain a natural, more youthful appearance.

They are able to do this by removal of excess skin and fat, thus reducing baggy, puffy areas of the eyelids. Eyelid surgery is a life changing procedure and you should carefully consider your available options before a commitment is made. If you think you might be interested, give Megan, our Oculoplastics Coordinator, a call! We offer free consultations where we walk you through the process from deciding if eyelid surgery is right for you, to what to expect before, during and after surgery. In some cases, your eyelid surgery may even be deemed medically necessary due to interference with your vision. We can assist with filing your insurance and any testing needed. 494668-1

If the appearance of your eyelids bothers you, or you believe that your vision is diminished due to your eyelids, call us for a free evaluation.

Call 770.979.2020 X224

and speak with Megan, our Oculoplastics Coordinator.

She can help you set up a visit with our Board-Certified Ophthalmologists who can determine what options may be available to you.

State Sen. Hunter Hill discusses the platform for his gubernatorial bid during a visit to the Daily Post this past week. Hill said he favors limited government, eliminating the state income tax and offering parents more choices when it comes to education. (Staff Photo: Curt Yeomans)

“We have a 4 percent sales tax, a 6 percent income tax and a 6 percent corporate tax,” he said.

“We have essentially shot buckshot through our sales tax code — exemptions here, tax credits over here — and so that’s rendered the sale tax less effective at bringing in the requisite amount of revenue. So we have to shore up the sales tax code.

“The short answer to your question (about what would replace the income tax) is it’d be more of a consumption tax in the state.”

The senator has been pushing legislation to create an education savings account that would hold “the state portion of the money” used to educate a child. That legislation, he said, has not made it out of the Senate, but it’s in line with his view that parents, especially in middle and low-income families, should have more choices

when it comes to where their children would be educated.

He said only the families that can afford to send their children to places, such as a private school, can afford to have that choice now.

“Basically you are empowering parents to make those choices, and you are empowering them with those resources that I believe are theirs anyway,” Hill said. “We already have the documentation about how much it costs per head to educate a child, and so what I’m proposing is that we allow that money to follow the child. It would empower families to make these choices, and so what does that look like.

“That means that the choice is on the table would be the traditional school, online education, a charter school and private school for those resources, and even home school.”

NOTICE OF PROPERTY TAX INCREASE The City of Buford Board of Commissioners has tentatively adopted a millage rate which will require an increase in property taxes of 4.75 percent.

All concerned citizens are invited to the public hearings on this tax increase to be held at Buford City Hall, 2300 Buford Hwy, Buford, GA 30518, on July 17, 2017 at 7:00 pm.

Times and places of additional public hearings on this tax increase are at Buford City Hall, 2300 Buford Hwy, Buford, GA 30518 on August 7, 2017 at 10:00 am and 7:00 pm.

This tentative increase will result in a millage rate of 12.800 mills, an increase of .580 mills. Without this tentative tax increase, the millage rate will be no more than 12.220 mills. The proposed tax increase for a home with a fair market value of $200,000 is approximately $46.40 and the proposed tax increase for non-homestead property with a fair market value of $550,000 is approximately $127.60.

Reader has worries about meds to aid sleep DEAR DR. ROACH: I am a 41-year-old man living with clinical depression and chronic anxiety.

Though my condition has been well-maintained through cognitive behavioral therapy as well as medication, I have a great deal of difficulty sleeping at night. A different medicine, Remeron, left me unable to shake the grogginess at daybreak. My doctor has since switched me to a low dose of Seroquel (25 mg per day) for sleep.

I recently came across an article on social media that suggests that studies have connected this use of Seroquel to Parkinson’s disease, cardiac issues and something called neuroleptic malignant syndrome.

There is a great deal of heart disease in my family.

I’m curious about your thoughts on this.

— M.C. ANSWER: Quetiapine (Seroquel) is classified as an antipsychotic medication, one to help people with disturbed thinking processes, such as in schizophrenia or bipolar disorder. It is a powerful medication with significant potential for side effects — for example, sedation, which can be life-threatening in combination with opiates (morphine-like drugs) or benzodiazepines (like Valium). The sedation effect can be used to treat people with insomnia, but I am very cautious about prescribing it for this use, and leave it only to psychiatrists and other experts.

Seroquel has even greater risks in people over 65.

Seroquel often increases blood pressure, and routinely increases cholesterol. It may cause weight gain (although at the low dose of 25 mg, this is less likely, especially compared with Remeron). All of these increase risk of heart disease. Your regular doctor should be monitoring weight, blood pressure and cholesterol, especially given your family history. It also can affect the electrical regulation of the heart, so monitoring with an EKG is appropriate in people with risk factors.

Seroquel can cause movement changes that resemble Parkinson’s disease, but this is unusual.

These almost always go away if the drug is stopped.

Neuroleptic malignant syndrome is a terrifying and, thankfully, very rare syndrome of fever, confusion and muscle rigidity.

It usually begins within two weeks of starting the medication, but it can happen at any time. It needs to be recognized and the drug stopped immediately.

Most people on lowdose Seroquel do fine.

However, there are enough risks to this medication that I recommend to my students and residents in internal medicine not to prescribe it. There are some times when it is reasonable, if the patient is carefully followed.

Spouse wants to improve communication Dear Amy: Lately, when my wife asks questions, she is really dissatisfied with the answers.

Can you suggest a book I could read that would help me listen better to her questions, and provide shorter, on-point answers without extra or extraneous exposition?

Communicating with her using the speech patterns that I have always used will not work, as she doesn’t accept that anymore.

— Wondering Husband Dear Wondering: I give you props for realizing that if you do something differently, you might successfully change the current dynamic between you and your wife. I like the book “Communication Miracles for Couples: Easy and Effective Tools to Create More Love and Less Conflict” by Jonathan Robinson (2012, Conari Press).

Robinson is a couples therapist who offers a number of practical tools you could use to try to reset this dynamic. He believes that each person needs the “three A’s” to communicate well: acknowledgment, appreciation, and acceptance. This means that you could start by “acknowledging” your wife’s position, even if you think it’s wrong: “I can see that you disagree with me because your experience has been dif-

Emotional matters will escalate if you aren’t willing to listen or give others a chance to explain. Keep an open mind and reflect on your experience to help you make the best choices for you. Let intelligence, not anger, guide you.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) — An impulsive, emotional response will work against you. Do your best to think about your actions before you make them. Accept the inevitable and move forward with a positive attitude.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept.

22) — If you stick to the facts, you will be able to convince others to see things your way. Don’t limit what you can do just because someone is putting demands on you.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) — Don’t get involved in someone else’s argument. An unexpected change will make you question your current position and the industry in which you work. Consider the value of making a move.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) — You may not like change, but you should experience what life has to offer. Try something new or indulge in something educational or oriented toward love and romance.

world&nation Priebus latest to exit Trump admin

By Grace Hauck CNN

White House chief of staff Reince Priebus this week became President Donald Trump’s latest senior-level official to leave the administration in the last six months.

Here’s an overview to help you keep track.

Sally Yates, former U.S. deputy attorney general An Obama administration appointee, Yates became a household name in January when she was fired, ostensibly, for refusing to implement the first iteration of Trump’s ban on travelers from a number of Muslim-majority countries.

— From wire reports Venezuelan President Opponents of Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro are calling for continued protests ahead of today’s controversial election, a day after demonstrators clashed with national guard troops in the capital in defiance of a protest ban.

Opposition leaders have vowed unrest before the election of a “constituent national assembly” that would rewrite the constitution at Maduro’s request — a move that the leftist leader’s critics say could consolidate his power and lead to a dictatorship.

Maduro’s regime has forbidden protests through Tuesday, saying violators will face prison terms of five to 10 years. It says it has dispatched more than 370,000 troops across the country to secure today’s vote.

She referred to a 2016 Rand Corp. study, commissioned by the Defense Department, that concluded letting transgender people serve openly in the military would cost between $2.4 and $8.4 million a year, which would be an “exceedingly small proportion” of health care expenditures.

Police searching for man accused of using credit cards stolen from car

By Cailin O’Brien cailin.obrien @gwinnettdailypost.com

Gwinnett County police are looking for a man who has been using several debit cards he allegedly stole from a car parked at the Mall of Georgia.

On July 12 at about 1 p.m., a Lawrenceville man was having lunch at the Buffalo Wild Wings at the mall when he realized he’d forgotten his wallet in his car.

“When he went to his

vehicle, he found that the center console was open and his wallet was missing,” according to a police report.

Less than two hours later, the man began to see suspicious activity on his bank account. Somebody had used his cards to spend $403.80 at a Best Buy and $636 at a Diamond Store — both located in the mall.

The suspect also spent $19.53 at a Chevron on Mall of Georgia Boulevard and $210.94 at a Walmart in Buford.

•From Page 1A LatinoJustice PRLDEF have concerns.

GALEO Executive Director Jerry Gonzalez singled out Auburn, Berkeley Lake, Braselton, Loganville and Lilburn as places the organization has particular concerns about, although he raised concerns about other cities as well.

“As recently as (July 18), their websites, which contain valuable information on upcoming municipal elections this year, were in English only and they were failing to provide the same information online in Spanish,” Gonzalez said in a statement. “Some municipalities fail to even offer voter registration forms in Spanish.”

GALEO announced its concerns after it filed open requests with the county and the cities to see what voter registration, election and ballot information was developed between Dec. 5 and July 18 to comply with the Voting Rights. The groups are asking local government leaders to meet with them and other Spanish community leaders to address Spanish language document issues.

“Federal law and the federal Voting Rights Act is clear on this,” LatinoJustice PRLDEF Associate Counsel Joanna E. Cuevas Ingram said in a statement. “The County and all municipalities within the County are required to provide language assistance, election information and materials to Spanish-speaking citizens seeking to register to vote on an equal basis with all that is provided to English speaking voters, today, so that no eligible voter is disenfranchised.”

But in some cases, it depends on who runs the elections. Nearly every city in Gwinnett handles its own elections, but Auburn, which is split between Gwinnett and Barrow counties, has a contract with Barrow County elections officials to run its elections.

Auburn Mayor Linda Blechinger said the city has been working to comply with the law, teaming up with other Barrow County cities and Georgia Gwinnett College professors, as well as the federal government, to address compliance issues.

“City staff and Barrow County elections staff have spoken with representatives of the U.S. Department of Justice to ensure compliance with Section 203 for the 2017 municipal election,” Blechinger said. “In cooperation with other cities and Barrow County, the City of Auburn has prepared bilingual voter forms and notices to comply with Section 203.

“Some forms were provided by the federal government. Others were drafted in consulta-

Security cameras at the mall caught pictures of a man who Gwinnett detectives believe could be the suspect.

Teavana’s Mall of Georgia store closing amid chain-wide shutdown

By Curt Yeomans

The sun is setting on Starbucks’ tea-based Teavana store concept.

The coffee giant announced this week that it is closing its 379 Teavana locations, including one at the Mall of Georgia. Unlike it’s parent company, the tea chain had been mainly located in shopping malls around the country. Starbucks announced in its third-quarter report that tea-based stores have continually underperformed, prompting the move to shut them all down.

“Following a strategic review of the Teavana store business, the company concluded that despite efforts to reverse the trend through creative merchandising and new store designs, the un-

“As a result, Starbucks will close all 379 Teavana stores over the coming year, with the majority closing by spring 2018.”

because they can harden in the sewer line and cause spills when they block the flow of sewage. The list of items they recommend residents not pour down drains not only includes liquid fats and cooking grease, but also substances such as melted ice cream.

The department instead recommends residents pour those materials into a container, let it solidify and then throw it in the garbage.

They have created a public awareness and education site on the dangers of fats, oils and grease at www. unclogthefog.com.

tion with professors from Georgia Gwinnett College and reviewed by individuals whose native languages include different dialects.”

Gwinnett’s cities have also been working together for months to address compliance issues.

“While we received word of their concerns last week, the city of Loganville has been working since March with the Gwinnett Municipal Association and the other cities to address this matter,” Loganville spokesman Robbie Schwartz said.

Braselton City Manager Jennifer Scott also disputed GALEO’s claims that her city had done nothing to comply with the law.

“Our Elections page has been in English and Spanish for some time,” Scott said. “We will fully comply.”

Berkeley Lake Mayor Lois Salter struck a similar tone.

“Berkeley Lake has taken all steps to be in compliance with the Voting Rights Act,” she said.

Lilburn officials could not be reached for comment.

Gonzalez also raised concerns because some cities use Google or Bing translation tools to translate online election documents from English to Spanish.

“Automated machine translations such as those developed by Google and Bing are not always accurate, can cause confusion and place additional burdens on access to voting by frustrating equal access to voter information for limited English speaking voters,” he said.

Peachtree Corners is one of the cities which uses Google’s translation tool on its website.

City officials met with the Daily Post this past week to discuss their efforts to be in compliance, with City Manager Brian Johnson saying the town has been working on being compliant since they received official notification of the requirements early in the year.

Johnson and other city officials also said they verified the accuracy of the translations.

The city is also using federal voter registration forms until they receive updated forms from county officials.

The city has two bilingual staff members that it had look over the documents. They also said their deputy city clerk, who handles all absentee ballot requests for the city, is bilingual.

“We’ve had multiple people who are fluent in Spanish look at this stuff. We’ve had our city attorney and others look at it, and (City Clerk Kym Chereck) has been in continual discussion with the other elections superintendents of the other municipalities as they compare notes and best practices,” Johnson said.

“The bottom line is we’re putting in a good, clear faith effort to make our election product to be fluent in both English and Spanish.”

Another city that GALEO criticized for using Google’s translation tool was Duluth, but city spokeswoman Amanda Leiba said the tool is used because of the city’s diversity.

In addition to its Spanish speaking residents, the area between Duluth and Suwanee has a particularly large Korean population, for example.

“Since Duluth is made up of different races (and) ethnicities who may speak different languages; we searched for an option we thought would meet the need of our residents,” she said. “We also brought in certified translators to analyze our documents to ensure our residents were given all the information needed to vote.”

Officials in some cities, like Peachtree Corners and Lawrenceville, said their work to be in compliance is an ongoing process as they work to address the requirements outlined in the Voting Rights Act. “Since being informed of this unfunded mandate earlier this year, we have been working to ensure compliance with this new initiative without state or federal guidance,” Lawrenceville City Manager Chuck Warbington said.

“The city is in the process of translating all necessary material, currently has a translate button located in the lower right corner of the page and will be updating the election pages to reflect bilingual information within the week.”

way into the gun shop. Police now believe Chaney was operating that equipment.

The surveillance video showed a drawn-out process in which Chaney allegedly hung around the store for about an hour before he walked into the construction site and emerged driving the backhoe. The range’s owners also noticed there was damage to the back door. They saw an axe head nearby that “was used to destroy the door lock in an attempt to make entry,” according to a Lawrenceville police report.

Eventually, Chaney allegedly pulled the backhoe into the middle of West Crogan Street, where he stalled for so long that at least one driver had to slam on the brakes to avoid hitting the machine.

“It’s odd because a few cars passed him, but nobody called us,” Lawrenceville police Capt.

Greg Vaughan said at the time.

At about 3:25 a.m., somebody did call the police. A woman who lived on the third floor of the apartment building across the street heard the alarm going off at Bulls-Eye, according to the report. When she stepped out on her balcony to see what was going on, she saw a man driving a backhoe into the front of the business.

“She watched as he ‘chopped’ away at the store front,” according to the report.

Just as Lawrenceville police officers were arriving at the scene, Chaney allegedly ran away.

A large panel of glass on the store’s front was shattered and part of the awning destroyed in the attempted break-in. But the damage didn’t close down the shop, which has since repaired its storefront.

Chaney is being held in Gwinnett County jail without bond.

He’s scheduled for a preliminary hearing, and possible bond hearing, on Aug. 10 at 1:30 p.m.

New eatery to open at LanierWorld Sixth bear sighted in local yard

By Curt Yeomans curt.yeomans@gwinnettdailypost.com

The man behind Rico’s World Kitchen in Buford and The Brunch Apothecary in Dacula is bringing his culinary expertise to LanierWorld.

The entertainment district at Lanier Islands announced on Friday that Rico Cunnington is opening The Break as part of its Family Fun Park. For Cunnington, the restaurant is the realization of a longtime dream.

“We wanted to bring a taste of what we do at Rico’s World Kitchen to the lake,” Cunnington said. “I grew up in Buford and remember coming to Lake Lanier since I was a little boy.

I’ve always wanted to open a concept near the water. The Break serves as a nice bookend to Sunset Cove Café on the other end of the park.

“In keeping with our location in Family Fun Park, we create a family atmosphere with counter service and covered pavilion seating.”

The restaurant will mainly serve sandwiches, but Cunnington said he is looking at expanding the Friday night menu to include an all-you-can-eat-style family dinner with a rotation of chicken, beef, pork and seafood dishes.

Some of the sandwiches on the menu

include a Cuban Traditionale, which has marinated pork, sliced ham, mayonnaise, mustard, a pickle and Swiss cheese in pressed bread with mojo dipping sauce, and Asian fusioninspired Bahn Mi Bao Buns, which includes Chasu pork belly, pickled daikon, carrots, cucumbers, jalapeños, soy glaze and sriracha aioli on steamed bao buns.

“As a frequent patron of Rico’s World Kitchen, I am consistently impressed with the quality of the food,” Lanier Islands CEO Mike Williams. “I met with Rico several times to discuss bringing something new to the Islands. It’s clear that Rico’s concept of food comes from a very different place, so we felt he was the ideal partner to bring a unique dining experience to our guests.

“Far from your typical ‘water park fare,’ the menu at The Break contains fresh ingredients and thoroughly original recipes.”

LanierWorld officials said The Break opens daily at 11 a.m., and it can be accessed for free with daily admission tickets and by season pass holders. They also said guests can buy a $10 Dining Access Pass, which gives them access to LanierWorld’s restaurants, or a $15 Beach Access Pass which will give them access to the restaurants and LanierWorld’s half-mile beach.

Charles Davidson, Jr. Charles Lewis “Charlie” Davidson, Jr., 89, passed away peacefully on July 26th in Mt. Pleasant, SC. Charlie was born on March 22, 1928 in Lithonia, Georgia, the elder of the two sons of Charles and Florre Jo Davidson.

He graduated from Lithonia High School in 1945 and then went on to earn a degree in Industrial Management at the Georgia Institute of Technology in 1949. While at Georgia Tech, Charlie was a member of The ANAK Society and the Phi Delta Theta social fraternity.

Shortly after graduation from Georgia Tech, Charlie met the love of his life, Sarah Cecelia “Cile” McCurdy of Decatur, GA. Despite the fact that Cile was a graduate of one of Georgia Tech’s arch rivals, the University of Alabama, where she led Alabama’s famous marching band as “Miss Alabama”, the couple married on December 21, 1950 and thereafter enjoyed more than 56 years of marriage together before Cile passed away on February 23, 2007.

Charlie’s business career was spent in the crushed aggregates industry, where he rose from a twelveyear-old “water boy” to President of Lithoniabased Davidson Mineral Properties, Inc. and its affiliated entities, North Carolina Crushed Stone, Inc., the Gainesville and Athens Stone Companies and the Atlanta, Stone Mountain and Lithonia Railroad.

After this group of companies grew to become Georgia’s second largest producer of construction aggregates, the business was sold in 1970 to Koppers Co., a NYSE-listed firm. In 1980, at the age of 52, Charlie retired from the aggregates business in order to spend more time with his wife and the couple’s four children.

Following his retirement, Charlie split his time between Atlanta, Highlands, NC and Naples, FL, where he enjoyed playing golf, fishing and hunting with his friends and family.

During those years, his social memberships included the Commerce Club, East Lake Country Club and the Atlanta Athletic Club in Atlanta, Wildcat Cliffs Country Club in Highlands, and Royal Palms Country Club in Naples.

In the final years of his life, Charlie moved to South Carolina where he lived near his daughter and her family in both Kingstree and Charleston.

Charlie’s many civic and philanthropic activities included board and leadership positions at institutions such as Brenau Women’s College, Wesley Homes, the United Way, and the Georgia Chamber of Commerce. In addition, Charlie was a longstanding member of the Rotary Club of Decatur, where he served a term as President and also maintained 50+ years of perfect attendance. Charlie also served as President of the Georgia Freight Bureau as well as of the American Automobile Association (AAA) Club of Georgia.

Early in his professional life, Charlie was selected as DeKalb County’s “Outstanding Young Man” by the DeKalb Chamber of Commerce and as one of Georgia’s five “Outstanding Young Men” by the Georgia Chamber of Commerce. Years later while serving on the Georgia Chamber of Commerce board, Charlie headed its STAR Student Program and established and funded the four-year Davidson-McCurdy STAR Scholarship, a college scholarship given annually for twenty years to Georgia’s top public high school graduate. Because he was an accomplished and life-long sportsman and conservationist, Charlie was appointed to serve on the Georgia Game and Fish Commission by four Georgia governors and, upon completion of his term as Chairman of the Commission, he received from then-Governor Jimmy Carter an award recognizing him for his many contributions to the Commission’s important work, including in particular its support of the state’s acquisition of almost 8,000 acres on Sapelo Island for scientific and public preservation purposes. In addition, Charlie was instrumental in arranging for the gift to DeKalb County by his

family of the initial 500+ acres which created the Davidson-Arabia Mountain Nature Preserve near Lithonia, and he also made the lead gift that led to the construction of the Davidson Natatorium at Wesleyan School in Peachtree Corners, GA. Charlie was predeceased by his wife, Cile, and his only sibling, Everett Davidson, and he is survived by his four children, Charles Lewis “Chip” Davidson, III (and his wife, Donna), Robert McCurdy “Rob” Davidson, Reid Holmes Davidson (and his wife, Stephanie), Leigh Davidson Connolly (and her husband, Duffy), eleven grandchildren and four great-grandchildren.

A memorial service for Charlie will be held in the sanctuary at Northside United Methodist Church in Atlanta (2799 Northside Drive NW, Atlanta, GA 30305) on Monday, August 7, 2017 at 11:00 AM. Arrangements by J. HENRY STUHR, INC., MOUNT PLEASANT CHAPEL.

The public is hereby notified that the City of Buford anticipates adopting the Fiscal Year 2018 Operating Budget at its regularly scheduled Commission meeting to be held Monday, August 7, 2017 at 7:00 P.M., at Buford City Hall, located at 2300 Buford Highway, Buford, GA 30518. There will be public hearings held on July 17. 2017 at 7:00 P.M., and also on August 7, 2017 at 10 A.M. and 7 P.M., at Buford City Hall, 2300 Buford Highway, Buford, GA.

The figures above contain both Gwinnett and Hall county property values as the City of Buford is located in both counties.

NOTICE The City of Buford Board anticipates adpoting it’s 2017 millage rate at its regularly scheduled Commission Meeting to be held at 7:00 P.M., August 7, 2017, at Buford City Hall, 2300 Buford Hwy, Buford, GA 30518, and pursuant to the requirements of §48-5-32 does hereby publish the following presentation of the current year’s tax digest and levy, along with the history of the tax digest for the past five years.

496522-1

The City of Buford Board of Commissioners today announces its intention to increase the 2017 property taxes it will levy this year by 4.75 percent over the rollback millage rate.

Each year, the county board of tax assessors is required to review the assessed value for property tax purposes of taxable property in the county. When the trend of prices on properties that have recently sold in the county indicate there has been an increase in the fair market value of any specific property, the board of tax assessors is required by law to re-determine the value of such property and adjust the assessment. This is called a reassessment.

When the total digest of taxable property is prepared, Georgia law requires that a rollback millage rate must be computed that will produce the same total revenue on the current year’s digest that last year’s millage rate would have produced had no reassessments occurred.

The budget to be tentatively adopted by the City of Buford Board of Commissioners requires a millage rate higher than the rollback millage rate, therefore, before the City of Buford Board of Commissioners may finalize the tentative budget and set a final millage rate, Georgia law requires three public hearings to be held to allow the public an opportunity to express their opinions on the increase.

All concerned citizens are invited to the public hearings on this tax increase to be held at the Buford City Hall, 2300 Buford Hwy, Buford, GA 30518, on July 17, 2017 at 7:00 PM and on August 7, 2017 at 10:00 AM and also at 7:00 PM.

COMING TO TOWN CENTER Several restaurants, stores announced for Peachtree Corners development

BY CURT YEOMANS

curt.yeomans@gwinnettdailypost.com

This artist rendering shows a conceptual look at Peachtree Corners’ Town Center development. The city has announced the names of several restaurants and businesses that will be located in the mixed-use district.

(Special Photo)

Peachtree Corners officials have unveiled names of 11 restaurants and four retail stores and office businesses that will join Cinebistro to fill out much of the city’s Town Center development.

Cinebistro was the first name announced by city officials, but the growing list of tenants now includes 16 businesses. The city sold 12 acres of the land on Peachtree Parkway to Fuqua Development in 2015 so it could be developed as a mixed-use district that is intended to essentially be

Peachtree Corners’ downtown area.

Officials broke ground on the 21-acre development, which will also include 70 townhomes and a town green, last month.

“When the Town Center is complete, it will feature entertainment venues, restaurants, shops, office space, townhomes and more,” Peachtree Corners officials said on the city’s website.

In addi-

tion to Cinebistro, the $103 million Town Center development will include some other names that will be familiar to Gwinnett residents, such as Jim ’N Nick’s Bar-B-Q, Marlow’s Tavern and Willy’s Mexicana Grill.

Sessions lessons WASHINGTON — Transparency, thy name is Trump, Donald Trump. No filter, no governor, no editor lies between his impulses and his public actions. He tweets, therefore he is.

Ronald Reagan was so self-contained and impenetrable that his official biographer was practically driven mad trying to figure him out.

Donald Trump is penetrable, hourly.

Never moreso than during his ongoing war on his own attorney general, Jeff Sessions. Trump has been privately blaming Sessions for the Russia Charles cloud. But rather than Krauthammer calling him in to either work it out or demand his resignation, Trump has engaged in a series of deliberate public humiliations.

Day by day, he taunts Sessions, attacking him for everything from not firing the acting FBI director (which Trump could do himself in an instant) to not pursuing criminal charges against Hillary Clinton.

What makes the spectacle so excruciating is that the wounded Sessions plods on, refusing the obvious invitation to resign his dream job, the capstone of his career.

Trump relishes such a cat-and-mouse game and, by playing it so openly, reveals a deeply repellent vindictiveness in the service of a pathological need to display dominance.

Dominance is his game. Doesn’t matter if you backed him, as did Chris Christie, cast out months ago. Or if you opposed him, as did Mitt Romney, before whom Trump ostentatiously dangled the State Department, only to snatch it away, leaving Romney looking the foolish supplicant.

Yet the Sessions affair is more than just a study in character. It carries political implications. It has caused the first crack in Trump’s base. Not yet a split, mind you. The base is simply too solid for that. But amid his 35 to 40 percent core support, some are peeling off, both in Congress and in the pro-Trump commentariat.

The issue is less characterological than philosophical. As Stephen Hayes of The Weekly Standard put it, Sessions was the original Trumpist — before Trump. Sessions championed hardline trade, law enforcement and immigration policy long before Trump rode these ideas to the White House.

For many conservatives, Sessions’ early endorsement of Trump served as an ideological touchstone. And Sessions has remained stalwart in carrying out Trumpist policies at Justice. That Trump could, out of personal pique, treat him so rudely now suggests to those conservatives how cynically expedient was Trump’s adoption of Sessions’ ideas in the first place.

But beyond character and beyond ideology lies the most appalling aspect of the Sessions affair — reviving the idea of prosecuting Clinton.

In the 2016 campaign, there was nothing more disturbing than crowds chanting “lock her up,” often encouraged by Trump and his surrogates.

After the election, however, Trump reconsidered, saying he would not pursue Clinton who “went through a lot and suffered greatly.”

Now under siege, Trump has jettisoned magnanimity. Maybe she should be locked up after all.

This is pure misdirection. Even if every charge against Clinton were true, and she got 20 years in the clink, it would change not one iota of the truth — or falsity — of the charges of collusion being made against the Trump campaign.

Moreover, in America we don’t lock up political adversaries. They do that in Turkey. They do it (and worse) in Russia. Part of American greatness is that we don’t criminalize our politics.

Last week, Trump spoke at the commissioning of the USS Gerald R. Ford aircraft carrier.

Ford was no giant. Nor did he leave a great policy legacy. But he is justly revered for his decency and honor. His great gesture was pardoning Richard Nixon, an act for which he was excoriated at the time and which cost him the 1976 election.

It was an act of political self-sacrifice, done for precisely the right reason. Nixon might indeed have committed crimes. But the spectacle of an ex-president on trial and perhaps even in jail was something Ford would not allow the country to go through.

In doing so, he vindicated the very purpose of the presidential pardon. On its face, it’s perverse.

It allows one person to overturn equal justice.

But the Founders understood that there are times, rare but vital, when social peace and national reconciliation require contravening ordinary justice. Ulysses S. Grant amnestied (technically: paroled) Confederate soldiers and officers at Appomattox, even allowing them to keep a horse for the planting.

In Trump World, the better angels are not in evidence.

To be sure, Trump is indeed examining the pardon power. For himself and his cronies.

Miracle at Dunkirk worth retelling Back before my mama died, which was almost 20 years ago and is often how I still measure time, I found myself in London, England, of all places, taking a sightseeing cruise on the River Thames. Did you know they pronounce it “Tims” over there? Go figure.

It was a fascinating ride, all the way up to Greenwich, where they officially keep time for the whole world. We went past one of Shakespeare’s theaters and past the hotel where the pilgrims stayed the night before they left for the New World in 1620. I don’t mean the hotel on the site from which the pilgrims left. I mean the very hotel. They seem to treasure old things more in Europe. If that hotel was in Atlanta we’d tear it down and build a new Hyatt Place.

Once in Greenwich we shopped a bit — I bought a watch for $29.99 that still keeps time — and saw the original Cutty Sark — the ship, not the Scotch. We also stood on the Prime Meridian, which was very cool.

On the way back to London, I wandered up into the wheel house and spoke to the captain. I noticed that his little touring boat was flying a flag with which I was not familiar. It bore a

Darrell Huckaby red St. George’s cross on a white field, upon which was superimposed an emblem baring a lion and a blue fish that resembled a porpoise.

I asked the captain about the meaning of the flag and he said, “We are so very proud to be able to fly that ensign. It denotes the fact that our vessel was used to help evacuate the British soldiers during the Miracle at Dunkirk.”

Honesty compels me to admit that tears ran out of the corners of my eyes as I realized the enormity of that statement. I was actually sailing on a ship that 58 years earlier had crossed the English Channel and helped rescue the British Expeditionary Force right out from under the nose of Adolf Hitler and his Nazi henchmen. Being a student of history, I was well aware of the significance of that endeavor and would rather have ridden on a Dunkirk vessel than a space shuttle.

Over the years I have tried to explain to people I have met, young and old, about the feeling that came over me when I realized the truth about our tour boat, but very few people seem to get it. So few people know or appreciate history and those who don’t, you remember, are doomed to repeat it.

Just in case you might be one of those people, I will fill you in, ever so briefly.

In the spring of 1940, Hitler’s blitzkrieg had taken control of most of Europe.

The Netherlands had fallen, northeastern France had fallen and so had Luxembourg and Belgium. The British air force was doing everything it could to keep the German Luftwaffe from bombing England into submission, and the British army, which had crossed over the channel onto the European mainland, was trapped with their backs to the wall — sitting ducks for the Nazi troops with almost certain annihilation as her fate.

But a divine combination of events began to occur — what some foolish people insist on calling coincidences.

First Hitler, fearful of becoming bogged down as the German had in Flanders during World War I and being counter-attacked by

British tanks, inexplicably ordered a halt to the German advance. Meanwhile, the British called for every vessel afloat — military and civilian — to cross the channel and to begin transporting troops off the beaches. A providential weather system rolled in, making it impossible for German air power to operate over the area.

By the time the Germans arrived at Dunkirk, the BEF — 198,000 British troops and 140,000 allied troops — had been safely evacuated.

All that meant was that the world would be saved, eventually, from the evil axis.

Now I told you all of that to tell you this: The story of Dunkirk has been made into a major motion picture and while it is not a great movie — certainly not of the “Saving Private Ryan” caliber — it is a very good movie and tells the story of an event in history that we all should know more about.

Go see the movie.

If for no other reason, maybe you can at least understand why riding on a tourist boat with the Dunkirk flag could bring a tear to an old patriot’s eye.

Paying tribute to a special professor If you are a regular observer of this space, you are no doubt familiar with the story I am about to share.

I have told it several times over the years. With your indulgence, I would like to tell it again. It is about seeking out a college professor to thank him for turning my life around.

Dr. Raymond A. Cook is his name. Today, he lives in Valdosta, a professor emeritus of English at Valdosta State University and former president of Young Harris College.

When our paths crossed that fateful spring quarter many years ago, he was an English professor at Georgia State. I was a sophomore on academic probation and in danger of flunking out of school. My high school friends had already quit school and had gotten jobs that did not look as menial then as they really were. It seemed just a matter of time until I would join them. And then, I ended up in an English literature class taught by Dr. Cook.

Two things happened in that class that changed my life: First was the way he taught. Dr. Cook would begin reading Shakespeare or Chaucer or whoever from the textbook and without missing a beat, close the book lean back and focus on

Lesson learned and never forgotten. I not only passed his class — no easy job — but I went on to graduate from the University of Georgia and then to a rewarding career where I retired as vice president of BellSouth Dick Corporation and then as a managing director of the Yarbrough 1996 Centennial Olympic Games. some distant point in space Looking back, I shudder as he continued to recite.

Big mistake. (Trust saved my job more than me on this one — “Trees” is once. a poorly constructed poem It took me 40 years to find as I was to find out.) Even Dr. Raymond Cook and to these many years later, I can thank him for inspiring me remember the scowl on the to stay in college and for face of this kind and gentle teaching me to think first man. When I had finished, and speak later. He didn’t he proceeded to dress me remember me, but he was down in front of the class delighted that I would take for not having taken the time the time and make the effort to properly study the poem to look him up and tell him and for not knowing what of his impact on my life.

I was talking about. “Mr. After all, isn’t that what Yarbrough,” he said sternly, teaching is all about? “from now on, you think I don’t know who was the

greatest beneficiary of our first meeting, him for having inspired me to finish college or me for letting him know the influence he had on my life.

Out of that initial contact almost 20 years ago has come a treasured friendship. I try to visit Dr. Cook whenever I am in Valdosta, and we correspond regularly via email and telephone.

And yes, after all these years, he is still very much my professor. He wrote me recently to tell me how much he enjoyed a particular column I had written and to point out that I had used the word “prone” where I probably had intended to say “supine.” Dang.

So why am I telling this story again? Last week, Dr. Raymond A. Cook celebrated his 98th birthday, and I could think of no better gift to give him than to thank him publicly for what he has meant to me. I guess I should give a shout-out to Joyce Kilmer as well. Were it not for “Trees,” we might not be having this conversation.

Seattle getting results from top two prospects

By Guy Curtright Staff Correspondent

Gwinnett County products Kyle Lewis and Nick Neidert — the Seattle Mariners’ top two prospects — were teammates at Class A Advanced Modesto this season, but only briefly.

By the time Lewis, a Shiloh graduate, had come off his second stint on the disabled list, Peachtree Ridge grad Neidert had been promoted to Double-A Arkansas.

It has been a successful season for both despite Lewis’ time on the shelf. The center fielder, drafted No. 11 overall in 2016, has overcome a serious knee injury, while 2015 second-round pick Neidert has built on his minor league mound success of his first two years.

Lewis was 6-for-14 with three homers and three RBIs in the former Mercer AllAmerican’s first three games back with Modesto after a DL stint caused not by any continued problems with his right knee, but because of a collision with an outfield fence in early June.

The No. 47 overall prospect according to MLB.com had just healed well enough from the ACL and meniscus surgery he had needed after a collision at home plate ended his first season barely a month in.

Lewis, who received a bonus of $3.2 million, already had 26 RBIs in 30 games and was batting .299 for Everett in the short-season Class A Northwest League, so there was no concern about what the 22-year-old could do when he got healthy again.

After playing 11 rehab games with mixed success in the rookie Arizona League after his collision with the outfield wall, Lewis homered in his second outing back in the California League and two more the next day.

Caddie academy gives Lawrenceville’s Bishop opportunity for full-ride college scholarship

By Christine Troyke christine.troyke@ gwinnettdailypost.com

Nala Bishop laughingly admits she didn’t even know what a caddie was two years ago.

It didn’t keep her from becoming one, especially when it afforded her a chance at a full-ride scholarship to college.

Bishop, a 15-year-old from Lawrenceville, is in her second summer of the Western Golf Association’s Caddie Academy in the Chicago area. She just needs to finish the program next summer to be eligible to apply for an Evans Scholarship, “Honestly, I knew nothing about golf and caddying,” Bishop said. “I thought golf was a pretty boring sport.”

Her counselor at Cristo Rey Jesuit High School in downtown Atlanta brought the caddie academy opportunity to her attention during her freshman year.

Bishop applied but was hesitant to start boning up on the sport until she heard back.

“I didn’t want to get my hopes up until I was accepted,” said Bishop, who runs cross country.

The program is meant to educate them, but golf is a game overflowing with etiquette.

“We watched a video, so I kind of knew the basics,” Bishop said.

And it only really takes walking across a putting line one time to learn that lesson.

“We do not ask them to have any experience or a great knowledge of golf,”

WGA director of education Mike Maher said. “We ask them for two things: to work hard and be nice.

We’re confident if they do that, doors will open for them. These are terrific young women.”

Bishop said it only took a couple of weeks for her to feel comfortable on the course last summer. She’s moved up in the caddie ranks, but still has a ways to go before she’s reading putts or helping with club selection.

“Nala has evolved into a very good caddie and is a dynamite student,” Maher said. “She’s a natural leader. It’s her second year.

It’s been fun to see her take the reins and move the program forward.”

Bishop is one of 40 girls — over 90 percent of whom are minorities — from 13 states participating this summer in the program, which just began

in 2012 with just 12 girls from inner-city Chicago.

They spend seven weeks caddying at courses along Chicago’s north shore and this summer are living in the Woodland Academy dorms in Lake Forest.

“The main reason we started the program is we saw a great need,” Maher said. “We think caddying is the best summer job out there. We looked at the top two barriers for entry. One is geography — not being near a caddie academy — and the other barrier was gender.

“We wanted to create an opportunity and knock down those two major barriers. Since we’ve started the program, 23 girls have graduated and received scholarships — to places like Norwestern, Marquette, Penn State, Illinois and Purdue. This year, over half the girls came from outside the Chicago area.

For many of them, it was their first flight, their first job, their first time on a golf course.”

The WGA also lines up field trips (a White Sox game), special outings (a tour of a private bank) and weekly guest speakers, a number of whom are academy alumnae, on the girls’ lone day off. They have ACT and SAT prep for the rising juniors and seniors as well as a book club.

“One thing we’re very proud of, especially as it relates to the golf industry, is we give them an introduction,” Maher said. “We also provide them with golf lessons and it gives them a new appreciation for something they would not normally be doing.

They’re really gravitating to the sport.”

Bishop gets up most mornings at 6 a.m. to be at the course by 7. On the weekends, it’s even earlier.

Then she waits at the caddie shack for a loop.

“I usually get home around 3 from my club and do homework,” Bishop said. “We might watch a movie or something, but I’m in bed at 10 or 11.”

Last month, the caddies participated in the KPMG Women’s PGA Championship Pro-Am. The amateur lineup included Condoleezza Rice, Michelle Kwan, Brian Urlacher and Bo Jackson.

“The girls represented themselves tremendously well,” Maher said.

Bishop caddied for young American pro Alison Lee. “I had her sign my hat and talked to her a little bit,” Bishop said. “It wasn’t a serious atmosphere, but to see, like, their game face is really interesting. The way the women and men play is different. I’m glad I got to meet her.”

Bishop isn’t planning to start playing — she wants to go into the CIA — but the caddie academy has been a tremendous opportunity and she’s making the most of it.

“I would definitely caddie through summers in college,” she said. “I’m going to be a junior, so I really want to have my life planned out. I do think I want to apply for a scholarship to Northwestern. The Evan Scholarship would definitely help me out, but I do have a backup plan.”

Wesleyan’s Frerking signs pro deal From Staff Reports Wesleyan grad Katie Frerking, a former Auburn women’s basketball player, has signed a professional contact with Luleå Basket in Sweden, the club announced Thursday.

Frerking, who graduated from Auburn in May, was the Tigers’ top player as a senior, leading Auburn in scoring (15.7 ppg), rebounding (6.3/game), assists (3.0/game) and steals (2.6/game). She was named the SEC’s Scholar-Athlete of the Year for women’s basketball in addition to earning nods to the AllSEC Second Team and SEC All-Defensive Team.

“I’m so excited about signing my contract and making everything official,” Frerking said in an Auburn release. “I can’t wait to meet all of my new coaches and teammates and experience a new cul-

To say I’m thankful for the opportunity ahead of me is an understatement. I’m so ready to get over to Luleå and get to work.”

Frerking finished her Auburn career as one of two players in Auburn

history with at least 1,000 points, 500 rebounds, 250 assists and 200 steals. She scored 1,271 career points (20th all-time at Auburn) along with 627 rebounds (18th), 307 assists (12th) and 236 steals (6th). She also finished eighth in

Auburn history in 3-point field goals (146). Frerking recorded eight doubledoubles during her career, including six as a senior.

Luleå, which plays in Sweden’s top division, has won the league title four straight seasons.

Langer builds on Pocono one of Earnhardt’s chances lead in Sr. Open MONSTER ENERGY CUP SERIES Overton’s 400 • Today, 3 p.m. (NBCSP) • Long Pond, Pa.

By Reid Spencer The Sports Xchange

LONG POND, Pa. — Dale Earnhardt Jr. has six more shots to qualify for the Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series playoffs.

And given Earnhardt’s current 22nd position in the standings in what will be his last season of fulltime racing, his only realistic path to the postseason involves winning one of the next six races.

Based on his history, Earnhardt feels Sunday’s Overton’s 400 at Pocono Raceway (3 p.m. on NBCSP), and the race at Michigan in two weeks hence offer him the best chances of reaching Victory Lane. But he still believes it’s imperative to take a winning attitude to the other four tracks — Watkins Glen, Bristol, Darlington and Richmond.

“I think here and Michigan are tracks that I obviously have got some wins — recent wins — at, so there is going to be some more expectations going into those or more confidence going into those,” Earnhardt said Saturday at Pocono. “I hate to say that because we’ve got to go in there and even, like I said on social media the other day, we’ve got to go into Watkins Glen like we can win.

“We’ve got to go in there with that attitude, if we want to win. If that opportunity falls in our lap, you have to have your head on straight. We will go to all these tracks with a great, positive attitude and see how it works out for us, but here and Michigan are probably the ones at the top of the list.”

Should Earnhardt fail to make the playoffs, he would still crave a victory in the final 10 races. He pointed to his 2014 victory Martinsville, after he had been eliminated from the playoffs, as one of the most significant of his career.

“Everybody was down and bummed out,” Earnhardt said. “We thought we had a great season. We were in the top three in

points all year, and we just got bumped out. We had a couple of bad races. And we went to Martinsville and won, which for me is definitely in my top five as far as wins that I personally appreciate. And we celebrated and it was the greatest. You’d have never known that we were disappointed about anything.

And all that disappointment and upset feeling was gone. …

“If we can win any race before the end of the season, just to go back to Victory Lane and know that feeling one more time before it’s over with, that would be awesome.”

Blaney adds depth to Team Penske In a heavy news week for Team Penske, 2012 Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series champion Brad Keselowski inked a longterm contract extension, and the organization announced the addition of a third Cup team with driver Ryan Blaney for 2018.

Given the current embargo against discretionary testing in NASCAR’s top-three divisions, Keselowski believes the addition of Blaney’s No. 12 Ford will be a positive.

“Hopefully it means more depth,” Keselowski said Saturday. “More ability to extend resources engineering where you can make the car faster.

The biggest battle that we have right now in motorsports is aerodynamics.

The teams keep pushing

aerodynamics further and further to improve that.

It’s just really the time and energy that you can spend on it.

“The more people you have, the more revenue you have, the more that you can work in those areas with engineering tools or experiments to get better. There’s a lot of hope with respect to that.

It’s not just aerodynamics. It also carries over to the engine side with Roush Yates Engines and a number of other categories of depth, whether it be pit crews or shop mechanics, fabricators and beyond.

“Assuming that it’s pulled off and executed in the right way at those levels it should be a gain for everybody at Team Penske.”

Truex regrets losing tire changers to suspension The ramifications of Martin Truex Jr.’s collision with Kyle Busch as the two drivers battled for the lead last Sunday at Indianapolis Motor Speedway, produced ramifications that extended well beyond the race.

After the wreck, which Truex triggered when his No. 78 Toyota got loose beneath Busch’s No. 18 Camry, Truex’s tire changers Chris Taylor (front) and Lee Cunningham (rear) were involved in a heated confrontation with Busch’s crew chief, Adam Stevens, who strode into the No. 78 pit area after receiving taunts from the

rival crewmen.

Just one problem: The No. 78 crew actually is assembled by Joe Gibbs Racing (Busch’s team) and is outsourced to Furniture Row Racing (Truex’s team) as part of the alliance between the two Toyota organizations.

Team owner Joe Gibbs opted to suspend the two tires changers for three races each because they had initiated the controversy. The complication is that Truex is competing against Busch for the Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series championship, and the suspensions could have a profound effect, Truex believes.

“It’s a tough situation for us to be in — there’s no doubt about that,” Truex told reporters after a FanFest appearance at Pocono Raceway on Friday night. “I’m obviously not happy about how it all went down. I’m disappointed that I made a mistake, and it got us kind of in this position. I guess it is what it is, and we’ll deal with it the best we can, and we’ll go forward.”

Making the suspensions all the more costly is the excellence of his crew.

“It’s a big impact when they’re two of the best out there,” Truex said. “Our pit crew has been amazing this year, putting us in position to win multiple races, not making mistakes — they’ve got everything. Those two guys are unbelievable, what they do. We’re obviously at a disadvantage without them.”

Truex hopes, however, that the altercation won’t have a negative effect on the strong working relationship between the two organizations.

“I hope not,” Truex said. “I don’t think so.

Again, it’s unfortunate that the mistake I made on the race track caused all this stuff to blow up. I’m proud of our pit crew guys and what they’ve done this year and what they continue to do for us. And like I said, we’ll just get through the next couple weeks as best we can.”

Preece earns first Xfinity victory

By Rob Gray

The Sports Xchange

NEWTON, Iowa — Ryan Preece’s short-lived but ambitious NASCAR Xfinity Series schedule began three weeks ago at his de facto home track, New Hampshire Motor Speedway.

It ended Saturday in the U.S. CelRyan lular 250 Preece at Iowa Speedway — as confetti swirled and soared to highlight his first career series triumph in Victory Lane.

Preece held off a hardcharging Kyle Benjamin in a green-white checkered finish that came after the third restart in the race’s final 17 pulse-quickening laps.

“I thought this race

would never end, that’s for sure,” an emotional Preece told NBCSN after finally slowing his fast Joe Gibbs Racing No. 20 car to a stop. “But man, nothing’s going to beat today.”

No one could beat Preece, who ran full time in 2016 but chose to funnel his 2017 Xfinity Series resources into this two-race stint with JGR. That high-stakes gamble clearly paid off — as Preece beamed and raised his arms, his season over but his future visibly brighter.

“I don’t even know what to say,” said Preece, who owns 17 career NASCAR Whelan AllAmerican Modified Tour wins, including two this season. “I’ve got to thank everybody.”

So he did.

Benjamin settled for second, which also is his best career finish. Veteran Brian Scott took third in

his first start of the season.

“I was very nervous,” said Benjamin, who also runs part time for JGR. “I wanted to make it happen right there.”

Preece did just that, from start to finish, with a slight hiccup in between.

He earned his first career Coors Light Pole Award earlier Saturday, powering to a lap of 24.072 seconds at a top speed of 130.857 mph.

That dominance carried over into the first stage, which Preece led in its entirety.

He dropped to sixth off pit road, however, which allowed Justin Allgaier to surge to the front. Allgaier would narrowly hold off Preece to win the second stage and gain a coveted playoff point, but a later gamble would reap misfortune instead of reward.

Drivers faced a dilemma when Spencer Gallagher

hit the wall, drawing the caution flag with 80 laps to go. Every top contender eventually dove onto pit road. Everyone except Allgaier, that is, whose team hoped another caution would help the decision pay off.

That didn’t happen, as Allgaier swiftly dropped from first to seventh to 15th and, finally, to a green flag pit stop that came with 25 laps to go. That longed-for caution finally flew shortly after Allgaier returned to the track, when Sam Hornish Jr.’s No. 22 Ford hit the wall.

Allgaier’s second bad break in as many weeks preceded that nerve-fraying — and caution-filled — finish.

Points leader Elliott Sadler raced near the front most of the day, but ended up 12th. He maintains a 54-point lead over William Byron, who finished ninth.

The victory was Bell’s Bell overtook John Hunt- first at Pocono, his fourth er Nemechek on Lap 54 of of the season and the sixth The Sports Xchange

of his career — and it gave him the series points lead.

Kyle Busch, Bell’s team owner at Kyle Busch Motorsports, won the first two 15-lap stages, but moments after the restart that began, the green-flag portion of the final stage on Lap 36, Busch’s No. 51 Toyota was wiped out by contact from Justin Haley’s Chevrolet.

After one more caution

and the final restart on Lap 45, it took Bell nine laps to race from fifth to the lead. After battling sideby-side with Nemechek for two laps, Bell gained momentum through the Tunnel Turn and made the winning pass in Turn 3, after struggling to clear the No. 8 Chevrolet down the long frontstretch on the previous circuit.

The Sports Xchange The weather cleared at Royal Porthcawl, but Bernhard Langer remained in his usual position.

Langer carded a bogeyfree 6-under-par 65 on Saturday in the calmer conditions to take a four-stroke lead over Corey Pavin after three rounds in the Senior Open Championship at Bridgend, Wales.

“Definitely efficient,” said Langer, the two-time Masters champion who has won a record nine majors on the senior circuit.

“What happened really good today was my driving was really, really good. Hit a lot of fairways.

“Hit the ball solid, which then gives you the opportunity to have shorter irons with distance control and I hit some really good irons to pin-high, pretty close. Gave myself opportunities. The putter wasn’t brilliant, but it wasn’t bad.

So overall, a very, very solid round.”

The 59-year-old German star, chasing his fifth victory in the last 10 senior majors, birdied four of the first seven holes and two of the last four, giving him a total of 5-under 208 through 54 holes.

Pavin, who captured the

1995 U.S. Open but has only one victory on the Champions Tour, birdied five of the last nine holes of the front nine and made his only bogey at No. 16 in a 65.

“It was certainly an easier day to play golf, no doubt about that,” said Pavin, who hasn’t won since the 2012 Bernhard Allianz Langer Championship. “It was almost balmy out there. It was nice not to have to wear a sweater.

The wind was down. It was definitely gettable today.”

Peter Lonard of Australia shot a bogey-free 67 and is five shots back in solo third, while Miguel Angel Jimenez of Spain eagled the 13th hole en route to a 65 and is another stroke behind in a tie for fourth with Steve Flesch and Billy Mayfair, who both had 71s.

Magnus Persson Atlevi of Sweden posted a 65 and is seven down in a tie for seventh with Scott Dunlap, who totaled 66, plus Santiago Luna of Spain and local favorite Philip Price of Wales, who both finished at 68.

Script •From Page 1B games this season, both in the booth as a color analyst and as an analyst for “Braves Live.” After taking most of June and July off, he’ll rejoin the Braves coverage for 15 games in August and September.

He started to think about going into television last year, even before the Braves traded him to Miami for the final stretch of the season, knowing he wanted to spend more time closer to home.

“Last year it was funny, sometimes on the plane ride, I’d go in the back and sit with the production guys with Fox and have a beer and talk with them, just for the sole fact that I figured at some point I was going to want to get into it,” he said. “I kind of knew in my mind that the end was closer (to retiring) than maybe some other people thought, just because I knew what I kind of wanted to do. So it was nice to kind of have that chance to pick people’s brains and see what I could do.”

Francoeur, who played 13 seasons in the majors — including six with Atlanta, said that his familiarity with the FOX Sports team of Chip Caray and Joe Simpson helped him with the transition.

He also reached out to former teammates turned broadcasters John Smoltz and Tom Glavine for some advice.

“The booth, I feel like, came a little bit easier, just because you’re talking about the game, the plays as it goes,” he said. “The pre- and postgame can be tough, because obviously it’s scripted, you’re looking at different cameras.

You could have something ready to talk about for the postgame and then all the sudden late in the eighth or the ninth, something crazy happens and the next thing you know it totally changes where you go. So you have to be able to adapt.”

Green played in the majors for eight seasons with eight different teams, beginning with Braves in 2004 after being drafted out of Georgia Perimeter College in 1999.

Unlike Francoeur, Green wasn’t sure what he wanted to do when he stopped

playing. He stayed in shape the first few years and was up and down on the Marlins’ roster. He helped his dad put up sports netting around baseball fields and took a job as car salesman.

But in 2014 he was introduced to Gwinnett Braves radio broadcaster Tony Schiavone, who invited him to join him in the booth for a few games.

He did a handful of games the next few seasons and decided to pursue broadcasting full-time.

In 2015, Fox Sports needed someone to fill in for Paul Byrd, who had the same agent as Green, and the Duluth grad took advantage of his opportunity.

He’s served as an analyst ever since, making more appearances this season than ever. He’s also provided color commentary on a few Braves broadcasts and for the ACC Baseball Tournament.

“I think the more you do it, the more you’re going to be comfortable with it,” he said. “I have done probably 100 shows over three years, but you still learn every day. I think the biggest thing, and the biggest challenge is talking to a camera, for one, and you’re saying what you need to say in a certain amount of time. But more than anything, it’s talking baseball in a different way than we’ve talked baseball before, and that’s what I keep learning” Green said he’s enjoyed his time in the studio and is hoping to get the chance to do more games in the booth in the future. He spent some time this offseason with former Braves pitcher C.J. Nitkowski, who is now a broadcaster for Texas

Rangers games in addition to hosting a radio show for MLB Network.

Carter, like Francoeur, knew she wanted to become a color commentator even before she finished playing basketball for Tennessee. The Buford grad said that when she was out with an injury early in her career, she struck up a conversation with ESPN and SEC Network analyst Maria Taylor.

She kept up the relationship, along with any other broadcaster she could find time to talk with over the next few seasons. During her sophomore and junior seasons, she shadowed Taylor and some of the production crew at the SEC Tournament when Tennessee wasn’t playing.

When chronic knee pain forced her to give up her playing career last August, she spoke with Taylor and visited her at the SEC Network studios in Charlotte.

During last season she provided color commentary for five SEC Network women’s basketball games produced by the universities and streamed online.

“Really it’s just the connections that I made while I was an athlete. And I try to tell people going to college now, ‘You just have to connect to people. Talk.

Get out of your shell.’

When I made the decision to stop playing, it just kind of fell together because I knew so many people in the business.”

This week Carter began a job with Woodgrain Distribution in Lawrenceville and will continue to work as a color commentator for the SEC Network, with the hopes of getting the opportunity to do a game on

television this year.

Injuries are also what led Pollack to broadcasting.

The former first-round pick suffered a broken cervical vertebrae that ended his career in just his second year with the Cincinnati Bengals.

While in the hospital, he watched so much ESPN that he figured that perhaps broadcasting would be a future for him.

He started with the nowdefunct 790 the Zone in 2008 and doing some analyst work for CBS Sports Network before joining ESPN the next year. He’s worked as a color analyst and now is one of the analysts on “College GameDay” and other ESPN programming throughout the week.

Radio is where Stinchcomb, Walker and Herbert turned once their playing careers were over as well.

Hebert was cut by the St. Louis Rams after his LSU career and began his radio career in New Orleans, where his father Bobby played for the Saints and co-hosts an afternoon radio show. In February, Hebert moved back to Baton Rouge to co-host “Off the Bench” in the mornings on the ESPN Radio affiliate.

After playing for Notre Dame, Walker spent two seasons with the Houston Texans and was in preseason camp or a member of the practice squad for the St. Louis Rams, Denver Broncos and Dallas Cowboys.

In 2010 he was unsure if he was going to keep pursing a roster spot with the Broncos and was doing a radio spot with a local ESPN affiliate in Denver and mentioned his future

was uncertain.

They called him a few weeks later and offered him a spot as a talk show host in one of their night slots.

From there he worked his way up as a sideline reporter for Fox Sports before joining ESPN in 2013 as a color analyst, while also working as a wealth advisor for Morgan Stanley in Los Angeles.

“To be honest it wasn’t something that I personally thought about myself, but it was something that I heard a lot of people in the business — writers and reporters, who would have interviews with me,” he said of broadcasting.

“Afterward they would say, ‘Hey man, you should consider going into broadcasting whenever you’re done playing.’ So I heard that throughout my entire career, from college all the way to the NFL, the whole nine. A lot of people, for whatever reason, thought I maybe had the gift of gab or whatever, but thought it would be a good idea for me to pursue it.”

Walker primarily broadcasts games in the Mountain West and occasionally the PAC-12 that are streamed on ESPN3.

Sometimes he’ll be on television.

He’s also done some basketball broadcasts for Conference USA and written freelance articles for NFL.com, ESPN and Flosports.tv.

“Just trying to broaden out and continuing to develop that portfolio,” he said.

Matt Stinchcomb also wasn’t looking for a broadcasting career when his NFL career with the Oakland Raiders and Tampa Bay Buccaneers ended.

He started making appearances on local radio to drum up support for the Stinchcomb Family Foundation and the work they were doing with children’s charities.

Those appearances led to work with the now-defunct Comcast Sports Southeast as an analyst and a host on “SportsNite,” as well as 680-AM The Fan talking about college football.

He joined ESPN in 2009 and serves as a college football analyst for the SEC Network as a color commentator. Matt said he never expected to be a

and invested and supportive. There’s always that family member or friend that is going to cheer for me, but then you have some of the Dream fans that won’t boo me and will cheer for the Dream. So it is all good. There is a lot of love in the building.”

This homecoming comes shortly after Moore was named the 2017 WNBA All-Star Game MVP for the second time in her career and she is in the midst of another rock solid year in her seventh WNBA season.

Even though the All-Star Game is merely an exhibition, Moore was more than just the MVP. She was the top vote-getter for the game, voted on by a combination of players, media and fans, and the respect that comes with that honor is worth a lot to Moore.

“There’s a lot that goes into All-Star weekend,” Moore said. “First, it’s just being blessed enough to be healthy and play well. It is humbling in that way. It is always great when you are appreciated for the work that you are doing. And then to play well and make a few shots, get a few rebounds and assists, it gives you a chance to win MVP if your team wins the game and that is what happened.”

The Collins Hill grad was averaging 16.3 points, 5.8 rebounds and 3.6 as-

Lewis, though, insists that results — good or bad — are secondary for now as he fully gets comfortable again at the plate.

“When you’re injured, the results don’t come as fast, so you have to trust the process,” said Lewis, who went into the weekend hitting .286 with Modesto. “I go into games and at-bats, I’m able to just continue to work on my process versus worrying about results, where before I was so used to getting results that that kind of became the focal point.”

Lewis, a late bloomer, was drafted out of high school, but shot up draft boards while hitting .395 with 20 homers as a junior at Mercer University, winning the Golden Spikes Award as the top college player.

Neidert, in contrast, attracted plenty of attention in high school at Peachtree Ridge and was drafted with the 60th overall pick.

sists per game heading into Friday night’s matchup.

While those numbers are a little down by Moore’s standards, she remains a top-tier player and has settled into her role on a dominant Lynx team with the likes of five-time AllStars Sylvia Fowles and Lindsay Whalen, fourtime All-Star Rebekkah Brunson and seven-time All-Star Seimone Augustus.

With so much star power and pedigree, in winning three titles since 2011, the Lynx know that they are the team to beat and they relish that status.

“We know we will get every team’s best,” Moore

said. “So as the season goes on, we feel battletested and ready for the next challenge.”

However, things have not been always been so rosy for Moore and the Lynx.

In last season’s WNBA Finals, the Lynx fell in the decisive Game 5 of the series to the Los Angeles Sparks by a single point and the memory of that loss is not going to go away anytime soon.

But to this point in the year, the Sparks and Lynx appear to be the clear-cut top two teams in the league and a rematch is possible, if not likely.

member of the media because he didn’t particularly enjoy his interactions with them during his career.

“My brother Jon openly mocks me for being ‘in the media’ because of my previous disposition,” Matt said.

He got to return the favor in 2013 when Jon joined the Saints preseason television broadcasts as an analyst for the team he spent eight seasons with, including a Super Bowl win in 2009.

This fall, Matt will also host “Film Room” which was previously hosted by his business partner at Seacrest Partners, and former UGA and South Gwinnett quarterback, David Greene, who has taken a sabbatical from broadcasting this season.

He’ll also appear on SEC Network studio shows and host a show on 680AM The Fan. “I enjoy both,” he said of studio work and providing color commentary.

“Lord knows I haven’t had any formal training and it probably shows. But if the game is good, games are probably easiest because you’re talking about what’s happening.

“When you do studio it’s a little different because you can’t go as in depth typically. You’re talking about a whole bunch of different teams, so it’s just a challenge in a different way. You’ve got to go a lot deeper for the games, of course. But if the game is good and competitive to the fourth quarter, it just kind of happens as it happens.”

Other Gwinnett sports broadcasting connections: Collins Hill and Alabama grad Rayven Tirado was formerly the host of ESPNU’s “Roadtrip” and also was a sideline reporter for FOX Sports before beginning her career in marketing.

Parkview grad and former Clemson and NFL tight end Michael Palmer spent the last two seasons working for the Clemson Radio Network before taking this fall off to focus on his family.

Current Hebron Christian head coach Jeff Saturday will spend the weekends working as an NFL analyst for ESPN this fall in addition to coaching the Lions.

pens or who the Lynx may face down the road, Moore is confident in her team’s ability to reach the mountaintop for the fourth time in her career and to build on her legacy as a bona fide dominant player and champion.

“Championship is a culture with us,” Moore said.

“It has been a culture since I’ve been here ... It’s hard.

It is a great challenge. It is a great responsibility. It is a grind. But it is so fun at the same time. It is so challenging, but the reward is getting the chance to compete and make history for your group that year. It is always on our mind to maintain that culture.”

nate to get Neidert and he has lived up to the team’s expectations after signing for a $1.2 million bonus.

Neidert lost his first two decisions after his promotion to Class AA, but he dominated during his time in the California League, which is usually unkind to pitchers.

The 20-year-old righthander won his last five starts for Modesto, finishing 10-3 with a 2.67 ERA in 19 games. His best outing may have come in late May, when he pitched six hitless innings at San Jose with nine strikeouts.

Many young pitchers struggle with control, but that wasn’t the case for Neidert at Modesto. He fanned 109 while walking just 17 in 104 1/3 innings.

“Limiting walks is always something I’ve been good at,” Neidert said.

“I’ve always thought to go right after people and make them earn their way on base.”

Seattle’s system is not a deep one, but the Mariners are happy to have landed Lewis and Neidert. The Georgians could be teammates in the Northwest for a long time.

Villalba’s stoppage-time goal earns United tie

By Paul Thomas

paul.thomas@ gwinnettdailypost.com

ATLANTA — For the second straight week, Hector “Tito” Villalba delivered some late heroics for Atlanta United against Orlando City SC in a budding Major League Soccer rivalry.

After scoring the gamewinner in the 86th minute in last week’s 1-0 win at Orlando, Villalba delivered the equalizer to salvage a point and a 1-1 tie in stoppage time in Atlanta United’s Bobby Dodd Stadium finale on Saturday.

Despite controlling the possession and the pace for much of the match, Atlanta (10-7-4, 34 points) trailed 1-0 after Kaka’s first-half goal. Orlando (8-8-6, 30 points) seemed content in the final 20 minutes to sit on the lead and Atlanta couldn’t get much going, even with nine shots in the half.

But in the 92nd minute, Yamil Asad threaded a perfect pass right to Villlalba who put it in and sent the sellout crowd into a final frenzy before the team moves to Mercedes-Benz Stadium.

“It’s been my moment and I’m taking advantage

of it, but I have to thank the coaching staff for all the help that they’ve been giving me,” Villalba said.

“Showing me things on film and I’m just taking advantage of it.”

Orlando recorded three shots on one possession in the second minute of the game — two were blocked and Scot Sutter’s final attempt hit off the crossbar.

From there Atlanta controlled the pace, recording

seven shots in the half.

Miguel Almiron hit the post twice in the half, and Viallalba nearly missed several dangerous chances as well.

In the 39th minute, Viallalba pulled up on a fast break and left it for Almiron, whose curling shot hit the post for the second time. The rebound came right to Villalba in the box, but his shot was wide right.

Orlando responded with a booming goal kick by Joseph Bendik that Kaka corralled outside the box and unleashed for his fourth goal of the season and a 1-0 lead before Atlanta even had time to catch its breath following its blown chance at the other end.

“From our point of view, it’s probably not the best goal to concede,” Atlanta keeper Brad Guzan said.

“A direct ball from the goal

keeper. We don’t deal with the first one, we don’t deal with the second one and then obviously on another day I think maybe I’m able to get a hand to it, looking back on it. But in saying that, I think he’s probably scored a few of those in his career. He’s a good player, it was a good finish.”

Orlando had its chances for a second goal in the second half, but for the most part the defensive trio of Michael Parkhurst, Leandro Gonzalez-Pirez and Jeff Larentowicz did a good job of keeping the Lions’ attack in check.

Forward Cyle Larin and the recently acquired Dom Dwyer were held without a shot. Carlos Carmona and Anton Walkes rotated marking Kaka depending what side of the field the Brazilian was on.

“I thought that for the most part we did really well,” Parkhurst said. “We really limited their chances. I’m not sure either of them had a really big chance — maybe Dwyer where we blocked one in the second half — but I thought we did a pretty good job of keeping them away from dangerous areas. We didn’t let Larin get on the end of many crosses — that’s where

he’s so good. The outside backs did a good job of not allowing any crosses in.”

The second half was chippier, indicative of the budding rivalry between the league’s two Southeastern teams. Villalba and Orlando’s Cristian Higuita were each shown yellow cards in the 56th minute for their role in a shoving match between the two sides.

Villalba’s comments after the game about Orlando will only fuel the fire.

“They didn’t really look to score the goal tonight,” he said. “Kaka kind of miss-hit the one that went in and he scored it.”

While Atlanta may have officially discovered its rival, more importantly Saturday’s late goal gave it four points in two weeks against a fellow Eastern Conference foe.

United now sits in fourth place, while Orlando is on the outside looking in at seventh, just a point behind Columbus.

“It was important to make sure that we got something from the game, especially when you look at the table,” Guzan said.

“For us to make sure that we didn’t leave emptyhanded was a massive result for us.”

“He made it very tough for me today,” the 34-year-old Muller said after dropping to 2-4 versus Isner in his career.

“I don’t feel like I played a bad match. I maybe didn’t serve well enough today but it’s also because of him. He put a lot of pressure on me.

Wonders of water Georgia features multiple waterfalls for a cool summer trip

By Savannah Peat Staff Intern

Under Georgia’s hot summer rays, getting cool outdoors may seem like an impossible feat. However, Georgia State Parks offer enticing, refreshing waterfalls that can turn any sweltering day into a misty adventure.

“Many Georgians are surprised at how many state parks we have,” said Georgia State Parks Public Affairs Coordinator Kim Hatcher.

These beautiful and inexpensive escapes offer unique hikes, views and even overnight lodges for each person visiting, according to Hatcher.

Amicalola Falls State Park It’s one of the most popular state parks in Georgia for many reasons. Stretching 729 feet, Amicalola Falls takes the cake for the tallest cascading waterfall in the Southeast.

This easily accessible park has about 12 miles of hiking trails as well as views of the falls from many different spots in the park.

Hatcher said between the bottom and top of the falls and handicap accessible trails throughout the park, it’s impossible not to get a breaktaking view.

Alongside waterfall beauty, explorers can also venture toward the south end of Appalachian Trail.

Amicalola Falls State Park is located at 280 Amicalola Falls State Park Road in Dawsonville. For more information, visit www.gastateparks.org/AmicalolaFalls or call 706-265-4703.

Black Rock Mountain State Park Black Rock Mountain State Park is another startling, record-breaking spot, sitting perched atop the Blue Ridge Mountains as Georgia’s highest state park.

Black Rock, at an elevation of 3,640 feet, is renowned for its diverse trails nestled with mountain views, wildlife, flowers and hidden waterfalls.

Locating the more secluded Ada-Hi Falls is a short and steep walk off the beaten path, and is best to see right after rain has hit, according to Hatcher.

“A lot of people don’t even know it’s there,” she said.

Black Rock Mountain State Park is located at 3085 Black Rock Mountain Parkway in Mountain City. For more information, visit www.gastateparks.org/BlackRockMountain or call 706-746-2141.

Leave personal destruction in the hands of markets The term “politics of personal destruction” was coined back in 1987 during the Senate confirmation hearings of Supreme Court nominee Robert Bork.

Tapped for the high court by President Ronald Reagan, Judge Bork was by any objective standard an imminently qualified jurist, a former Yale law professor who had earned the American Bar Association’s highest rating.

But Senate Democrats derailed his nomination

Rob Jenkins by launching an unprecedented smear campaign, composed almost entirely of lies and innuendo.

Since then, personal

destruction has become a favorite tactic of Democrats — and some Republicans, too. In fact, we might say it is now standard operating procedure for Washington politicians.

Far more disturbing, though, is the fact that such smear campaigns no longer target exclusively political figures.

Remember Brendan Eich? He was the CEO of Mozilla who was forced out in 2014 for supporting California’s Proposi-

tion 8, an amendment to the state constitution defining marriage as “only … between a man and a woman.” Essentially, the left destroyed this man’s career in order to send a message. Conservatives at the time decried the tactic, and rightly so.

Fast forward to 2017, when we find self-styled conservatives engaging in exactly the same behavior — except now, the targets are leftist college professors.

Admittedly, some of those profs placed themselves in the line of fire: calling for “white genocide,” implying that Otto Warmbier got what he deserved, suggesting

that U.S. Rep. Steve Scalise should have been left to die.

Such rhetorical excesses led outraged conservatives to call for their heads. And to some extent they succeeded, as several of the offending academics were indeed fired or suspended.

No doubt conservatives felt justified, after all the times the left has destroyed its opponents.

Turnabout is fair play, right?

What some seem to forget is that conservatism is fundamentally different from “progressivism.” The latter relies on activism to push its agenda, often against the

will of the people, while the former takes a more laissez-faire, free-market approach. Let the markets decide, conservatives insist, which is really another way of saying let the people decide.

Why should that be any different in the marketplace of ideas?

If what those leftist professors said was truly repugnant, and I believe it was, then people will naturally be repulsed.

Once those offensive views become public knowledge — as is bound to happen in this socialmedia-driven world — their course enrollments will suffer, and eventually the institutions that harbor them will feel the pain.

For a perfect illustration of this free-market principle at work, look no further than the University of Missouri. Since its controversial embrace of the radical Black Lives Matter agenda in 2015, Mizzou has seen freshman enrollment plummet by a whopping 35 percent.

Clearly, conservatives needn’t resort to the politics of personal destruction to defeat progressives. The markets will do it for us, as the left’s unsustainable ideology continues to be rejected by a majority of consumers.

High school students participate in Find underlying PCOM’s first Opportunities Academy problem to make

people positive

Good News from Schools

Keith Farner Students at Berkmar and Meadowcreek high schools got a chance to begin a path toward a degree in science and medicine thanks to a two-week program at the Suwanee campus of the Philadelphia College of Osteopathic Medicine.

Second-year doctor of osteopathathic medicine student Claire Dorcent led the program as student coordinator, and said in a press release that the main goal of the Opportunities Academy was to increase the number of underrepresented minorities in the health care fields.

Directed by volunteer Ga.-PCOM students, faculty and staff, the Opportunities Academy consisted of interactive labs and dissections in the college’s anatomy lab, diagnosed robot-patients in the new simulation center, took field trips to the Shepherd Center and Bodies:

His heart was also scarred by what was happening back home. He had left behind two children, whose mother had left them behind when she went back to her homeland of Germany and never returned. My aunt Ozelle took in the beautiful young girl and the absolutely adorable son, Mike, the same age as me, came to live with us.

While my uncle’s life was miserable during that tour of duty, Mike and I were having quite a fine time back home in Georgia. We put up an Army regulation, drab green tent that Mike’s daddy had bought for us at the commissary and camped out nights, eating Army food from green cans. We climbed trees, picked blackberries, explored every nook and cranny of the creek and fished.

External locus of control Someone with an external locus of control believes events happen outside them, and they have little control. Those with an internal locus of control believe they have the power to influence events. In the case of our client, they’re a wholesaler of industrial supplies.

Many of their customers are contractors who come in frustrated and angry with their customers.

When you apply an external vs. internal locus of control mindset to being positive in the face of a negative situation, you reach two entirely different conclusions. Someone with an external locus of control will likely believe smiling and positively engaging negative customers is futile; it’s hard work with no reward because the environment will stay negative.

Someone with an internal locus of control will see it as an opportunity to change the environment.

They’re more likely to believe that improving their attitude will affect the response they get from customers, which will in turn improve their own work conditions.

If you want to create a more positive environment, at work or home, take a hard look at the underlying beliefs. Can you bond with compliments as easily as you do with complaints? Do you have the power to influence others, or are you merely at the mercy of their moods?

Logic tells us being positive makes all the sense in the world. Yet as we all know, when it comes to humans, logic isn’t always our first choice.

The U.S. Space and Rocket Center announced Leah Wright has completed its Advanced Space Academy program, which highlights space exploration, at Space Camp in Huntsville, Ala. The week-long STEM-focused program gives students and adults opportunities to participate in teamwork, leadership and problem solving-based activities and missions.

In Wright’s case, she was part of a team that trained for, and undertook, a simulated flight to Mars.

“The crew participated in experiments and successfully completed an extra-vehicular activity, or spacewalk, and returned to Earth in time to graduate with honors,” U.S. Space and Rocket Center officials said in a statement.

SNELLVILLE City updates tree ordinance City leaders in Snellville recently updated an ordinance that will make the penalty for unwarranted tree removal by commercial property owners tougher.

The fine for cutting down trees without permission once carried a minimum penalty of $356 per tree per day. Under the new measure, violators would pay $995 per tree per day. Also under the new ordinance is the provision that removal of any tree without approval from the city’s planning director is prohibited.

City officials said residents must notify the city if they see suspicious tree cutting at a local business.

“It’s back ended,” Mayor Pro Tem Barbara Bender said of the ordinance update.

“It penalizes (businesses) after the action occurs. We won’t know that until the instance has occurred. We need your help.”

If you think a commercial business is cutting down a tree without permission, call the Snellville Planning Department at 770-985-3513.

SUGAR HILL City accepting donations for mural The city of Sugar Hill’s latest effort geared toward the arts is a new mural created by local artist Chris Walker. The mural will be a showcase of the transition of the past into the present, representing much of the city’s history.

City officials said the mural has received positive response from the community, but it needs to be fully funded at $20,000, which will offset the cost of the mural.

Donations will be divided into several contribution level tiers, each paired with various incentives. Any donation that exceeds the needed amount will be directed toward the fund for future art initiatives in the city.

More information and ways to donate is available at sugarhillmural.com.

This will be the second mural in Sugar Hill’s downtown area, both of which will be located on opposite sides of the city’s former City Hall on West Broad Street, the same building of the Suite Spot.

Walker said, “The first objective of the mural is to illustrate the use of the building as a business incubator. As one approaches the Suite Spot, you will see an abstract design consisting of large gears and the Suite Spot logo. The Suite Spot houses thought and creativity, it’s where ideas are fostered and houses a number of local businesses.”

Along that band of color is a series of illustrations that serve as a timeline of Sugar Hill history.

For more information on becoming involved with the arts initiative in Sugar Hill, call 770-945-6716.

SUWANEE City looking for opinions on new website The city of Suwanee is gathering input for building a new website and is collecting data from people who live, work and interact in the city about how they use it. The change is, in part, to better address the needs of the city’s changing community.

The vendor has created a 13-question survey for resident responses, which can be found at www.surveymonkey.com/r/DQK5LZP. The city is looking for at least 376 responses to gain statistical significance.

A youngster’s claim that someone tried to kidnap him is dismissed by Geordie (Robson Green) — until the boy’s brother disappears — in “Part Seven,” which wraps up the new Season 3 of the mystery series. Though the boys’ father becomes an early suspect, Geordie eventually hones in on their overly protective teacher.

On the personal front, Geordie reunites with Cathy (Kacey Ainsworth). James Norton,

WEDNESDAY

Morven Christie and Al Weaver also star.

MONDAY 8 p.m. on ABC The Bachelorette As a season of this show nears its end, it’s inevitable that the “Men Tell All” — and that happens again as the fellows Rachel Lindsay has sent packing spill the beans in this new episode. It runs two hours, so the men clearly have a lot to tell, not only about her but about each other in certain cases. Since it’s already known that Lindsay gets engaged in the finale, that could prove to be an interesting factor here.

As usual, Chris Harrison is the host.

9 p.m. on AMC Preacher After narrowly escaping death at the hands of the Saint of Killers, a shaken Tulip (Ruth Negga) reflects on that near-death experience in the new episode “Pig.” Elsewhere, Denis (Ronald Guttman) asks Cassidy (Joseph Gilgun) for a huge favor, and Jesse (Dominic Cooper) weighs the price he had to pay to save Cassidy and Tulip.

TUESDAY 10:01 p.m. on NBC World of Dance The competition gets more intense in this new episode, as the Divisional Final sees the top two acts in each division going against each other to land a place in the World Final.

Judges Jennifer Lopez, Derek Hough and Ne-Yo drill deep on technique to make their choices, with those who survive proceeding to the chance for the $1 million grand prize. Jenna Dewan Tatum is both the host and a mentor to the dancers.

10:01 p.m. on USA The Sinner For the first time since her days on “7th Heaven,” Jessica Biel stars in a series with this new limited-run drama, playing a wife and mother who suddenly exhibits unlikely and lethal behavior. She has no idea why she committed an act of violence, nor does the detective on the case (Bill Pullman), but he’s determined to find out. Biel also is an executive producer of the show, which is based on the same-named novel by Petra Hammesfahr and also stars Christopher Abbott.

THURSDAY 9 p.m. on ABC Battle of the Network Stars “TV Moms & Dads” and “TV Kids” often may seem like natural opponents on their shows, and a number of each compete at Pepperdine University in this new episode. Greg Evigan (“My Two Dads”) and Ted McGinley (“Married ... With Children”) are among those representing the “parents,” while “kids” include Jimmie Walker (“Good Times”)

and Mackenzie Phillips (“One Day at a Time”). They all were on the original “Battle” specials, too.

Waterfalls •From Page 1C Cloudland Canyon State Park Known for not only being one of the most gorgeous Georgia state parks, but also the largest, Cloudland Canyon offers a plethora of trails and waterfalls to gawk at.

Located on the edge of Lookout Mountain, this sanctuary holds dripping caves, flowing rivers and its two famous waterfalls.

One path, Waterfall Trail, is geared specifically toward those ready to be entranced by the flowing waters and pools toward the bottom.

“It’s definitely one of our most beautiful state parks,” Hatcher said.

The park also provides refreshing activities for the whole family such as horseback riding and fishing.

“It’s one of the most beautiful, rugged places in Georgia,” Hatcher said.

The gorge itself is 1,000 feet deep and two miles long, paired with steep walking and biking trails for visitors to take in every detail of the park.

Tallulah Gorge also has notable features Hatcher highly encourages: She said a schedule is available to see when the dam near the gorge opens an even greater, more impressive flow of water.

Views such as these also make the park one of the most romantic locations Georgia parks can offer, Hatcher said.

Tallulah Gorge State Park is located at 338 Jane Hurt Yarn Drive in Tallulah Falls.

Vogel State Park It’s one of the oldest and most beloved state parks in the United States, and it’s right around the corner.

Vogel State Park is next door neighbors with Brasstown Bald, and sits at the base of Blood Mountain within the Chattahoochee National Forest.

Within its bounds, visitors can combine beauty with fun, as the exquisite and hidden Trahlyta Falls lie beneath the park’s 22-acre lake.

“This is a pretty waterfall.

A lot of people don’t know is there,” Hatcher said.

This 40-foot drop of water pairs relaxation with opportunities to hike as well.

Vogel State Park is located at 405 Vogel State Park Road in Blairsville. For more information, visit www. gastateparks.org/Vogel or call 706-745-2628.

Hatcher said choosing a favorite between these locations was like choosing a favorite child, but encourages Georgians to look into each state park’s escapades.

Hatcher also urges caution when going near slippery rocks for not just thrill-seekers, but for pets as well.
