WHAT IT MEANS

HEADS UP, GWINNETT What the new Hands-Free Georgia Act means for motorists come July 1

BY ISABEL HUGHES • isabel.hughes@gwinnettdailypost.com

I

t’s something everyone has been guilty of at some point in his or her life: distracted driving. Distractions come in almost any form, whether they be from cellphone use or a bad night’s sleep, and each day across Georgia and the nation, motorists drive distracted.

Beginning July 1, however, Georgia is taking a step to eliminate one major cause of distracted driving by prohibiting motorists’ use of cellphones and other mobile devices — and law enforcement isn’t kidding around.

Georgia House Bill 673, which is better known as the Hands-Free Georgia Act, was passed by the Georgia General Assembly earlier this year and signed into law in May by Gov. Nathan Deal.

Legally, there is no grace period from when the law takes place, which Georgia State Patrol and other agencies have been touting for several months now.

Some jurisdictions, like Gwinnett, are taking a bit of a different approach, however, and will first focus on education — then start ticketing.

“We have a 30-day grace

“

We have to get to the point where a stigma is attached to distracted driving, particularly using a device, such as the stigma is about DUI and not wearing a seat belt. This law takes us in that direction.”

— Garrett Townsend, director of public affairs for AAA in Georgia

period from July 1,” said Sgt. Jake Smith, a spokesman for the Gwinnett County Police Department. “We’ll be focusing on education for the first month (and we have a) flyer we’re handing out.”

Still, Smith said there will be times when officers do write tickets — especially if a driver

causes an accident or injury in violation of the law.

Q: What is the law?

A: The law prohibits drivers from having a phone in their hands or from having it touch any part of their body while operating a motor vehicle on the road.

This includes motorcycles and commercial vehicles.

Q: Can I still talk on my phone while driving?

A: Yes, as long as it is done handsfree.

Q: Could I touch my cellphone to dial a number or receive or end a call?

A: Yes. The law simply prohibits drivers from holding or supporting the phone.

Q: What are the fines/penalties?

A: First conviction: $50, one point on a license; second conviction: $100, two points on a license; third and subsequent convictions: $150, three points on a license Q: Can I listen to radio applications such as Pandora or Spotify while driving?

A: Yes, as long as you activate or program the radio application prior to getting on the road (the road includes being stopped for traffic signals and stop signs).

Q: Can I talk to someone via video telephone applications, such as FaceTime or Skype, if doing so “hands-free?”

A: No. Drivers may not “record or broadcast a video” while driving.

Q: Is there a grace period?

A: No. Beginning July 1, hands-free means hands-free.

Q: Can Uber or other ride-sharing drivers use their phones?

A: They are subject to the same restrictions as the general public.

Q: What are the exceptions?

A: Phone usage is allowed when reporting a traffic crash, medical emergency, fire, criminal activity or hazardous road conditions; first responders may use devices in official capacities; and drivers may use a device when legally parked off the roadway (a parking lot is allowed, a merge lane is not).

Vol. 48, No. 122

Proposed center may bring 1,800 jobs with it Officials mum on any rumors of Amazon

BY CURT YEOMANS curt.yeomans@gwinnettdailypost.com

A mysterious 2.5 million-square-foot distribution center with 1,800 jobs is being proposed near Stone Mountain in southwestern Gwinnett, but local officials won’t say if rumors are true that e-commerce heavyweight Amazon is behind it.

The question can be asked, but the answer won’t be too different from asking a Magic 8-Ball a question, only to get “ask again later” as a response. The fear from officials is that talking too much about the project, which would be located in the Evermore Community Improvement District, could cause whatever company is behind it to pull out.

There are no confirmations that the project could be an Amazon fulfillment center, but no denials are being issued, either. The only indication of what may go on the site is that the proposed site plan shows a building described as a multi-story “proposed distribution center.”

“We don’t really get into the logistics of who it is and what they’re moving as far as product, and maybe down the road that is something that can be discussed, but at this time, it is a large company that will have a

As Ellen Gerstein stood in front of the crowd at Gwinnett County Health and Human Services Division Director Pat Baker’s retirement party, she thought back 10 years and recalled Baker’s interview for the position.

One MORE ONLINE thing that Visit gwinnettdailypost.com stood for a photo gallery. out to Gerstein, executive director of the separate Gwinnett Coalition for Health and Human Services, was Baker’s familiarity with the job before she even had it. Baker had done her research on the position and applied that knowledge as she answered the interview panel’s questions, she said.

“We all knew she was the one for the job, and I think we made a great decision,” Gerstein said. “Pat’s predecessor, Cathy Kimbrel, and I worked together for a long time and it was very difficult to think about who was going to replace Cathy. Cathy, like Pat, was a very dynamic leader in this community, an advocate for seniors and others who are also neglected in the community.

NOTICE OF PROPERTY TAX INCREASE

GWINNETT COUNTY PUBLIC SCHOOLS

The Gwinnett County Board of Education has tentatively adopted a millage rate which will require an increase in property taxes by 5.13 percent.

The Gwinnett County Board of Education does hereby announce that the millage rate will be set at a meeting to be held in the Board Meeting Room at the J. Alvin Wilbanks Instructional Support Center, 437 Old Peachtree Road NW, Suwanee, Georgia on Monday, July 16, 2018 at 7:00 p.m., and pursuant to the requirements of O.C.G.A. Section 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 and levy for the past five years.

All concerned citizens are invited to attend public hearings on this tax increase to be held in the Board Room at the J. Alvin Wilbanks Instructional Support Center, 437 Old Peachtree Road, Suwanee, GA on Monday, July 9, 2018, at 7:00 p.m. Additional hearings on this tax increase are scheduled in the Board Room at the J. Alvin Wilbanks Instructional Support Center, 437 Old Peachtree Road, Suwanee, GA on Monday, July 16, 2018, at 11:45 a.m. and 7:00 p.m.

The tentative increase will result in a millage rate of 19.800 mills, an increase of 0.967 mills. Without this tentative tax increase, the millage rate will be no more than 18.833 mills. The proposed tax increase for a home with a fair market value of $225,000 is approximately $83.16 and the proposed tax increase for non-homestead property with a fair market value of $675,000 is approximately $261.09 In setting the millage rate to support the budget, the Gwinnett County Board of Education will not increase the total school millage rate. Holding the total millage rate at the same level, by law, must be advertised as a property tax increase due to the higher value of property in the county. The total millage rate is not changing and taxpayers whose property has not been assigned a higher value this year will see no change in their school taxes.

Southern Poverty Law Center has lost all credibility WASHINGTON — After years of smearing good people with false charges of bigotry, the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) has finally been held to account. A former Islamic radical named Maajid Nawaz sued the center for including him in its bogus “Field Guide to Anti-Muslim Extremists,” and this week the SPLC agreed to pay him a $3.375 million settlement and issued a Marc public apology.

Thiessen The SPLC is a once-storied organization that did important work filing civil rights lawsuits against the Ku Klux Klan in the 1970s.

But it has become a caricature of itself, labeling virtually anyone who does not fall in line with its left-wing ideology an “extremist” or “hate group.”

Nawaz is a case in point. Since abandoning Islamic radicalism, he has advised three British prime ministers and created the Quilliam Foundation, to fight extremism. He is not anti-Muslim. He is a Muslim and has argued that “Islam is a religion of peace.”

So how did he end up in the SPLC’s pseudoguide to anti-Muslim bigots? His crime, apparently, is that he has become a leading critic of the radical Islamist ideology he once embraced.

Thanks to his courage, the SPLC has been forced to pay a multimillion-dollar penalty and acknowledge in a statement that it was “wrong” and that Nawaz has “made valuable and important contributions to public discourse, including by promoting pluralism and condemning both anti-Muslim bigotry and Islamist extremism.”

Let’s hope this settlement is the first of many, because this is not the first time the SPLC has done this. In 2010, it placed the Family Research Council (FRC) — a conservative Christian advocacy group that opposes abortion and same-sex marriage — on its “hate map.”

Two years later, a gunman walked into the FRC headquarters with the intention to “kill as many as possible and smear the Chick-fil-A sandwiches in victims’ faces.” He told the FBI that he had used the SPLC website to pick his target.

In the aftermath, the FBI removed the SPLC from its list of legitimate resources on hate crimes.

While the FBI no longer takes the center seriously, many in the media still do. Last year, ABC News ran a story headlined: “Jeff Sessions addresses ‘anti-LGBT hate group,’ ” in which it reported that “Sessions addressed members of the Alliance Defending Freedom, which was designated an ‘anti-LGBT hate group’ by the Southern Poverty Law Center in 2016.” The Alliance Defending Freedom is a respected organization of conservative lawyers dedicated to defending religious liberty, and it just argued a case before the Supreme Court, Masterpiece Cakeshop v. Colorado Civil Rights Commission. It won 7 to 2. It is not a “hate group.” If anything, it is fighting anti-Christian hate.

In 2014, the SPLC placed Ben Carson — later a Republican presidential candidate and now the current secretary of housing and urban development — on its “extremist watch list,” alongside neo-Nazis and white supremacists.

After an uproar, the group removed him and apologized.

The SPLC also lists Charles Murray, a colleague of mine at the American Enterprise Institute and one of the most respected conservative intellectuals in the United States, on its website as a “White Nationalist.” Last year, an angry mob of students, many citing the SPLC’s designation, physically attacked Murray during a speech at Middlebury College.

He escaped unharmed, but the liberal professor who invited him ended up in the hospital.

Little wonder that Nawaz was not just angry but also afraid about being designated an extremist by the SPLC. He told the Atlantic in 2016, “They put a target on my head. The kind of work that I do, if you tell the wrong kind of Muslims that I’m an extremist, then that means I’m a target.”

Unfortunately, the settlement that the SPLC reached with Nawaz is not likely to deter it from smearing others — $3.4 million is a drop in the bucket for the center, which raised $132 million between November 2016 and October 2017 and has a $477 million endowment, including a reported $92 million in offshore accounts. Sliming conservatives is big business.

The only way to stop the SPLC is if people stop giving it money and the media stop quoting it or taking it seriously. The SPLC once did important work fighting the Ku Klux Klan. But when it declares Maajid Nawaz, the Family Research Council, Ben Carson and Charles Murray as moral equivalents of the Klan, it loses all integrity and credibility.

Some things have gone downhill I read the other day that the median price for a kid’s baseball bat is $250. You read it right. No extra zeroes. Two Benjies and a U.S. Grant. And apparently, each kid who plays on a team has to bring his own bat. This makes me sad.

I played Little League baseball for the Porterdale Yankees.

I was the ultimate right-fielder.

Bad glove, no hit, couldn’t throw well. But I could make marks in the outfield grass — or dirt as was usually the case — with the best of them. And I was an All-Star daydreamer, too. Mickey Mantle and Joe DiMaggio combined didn’t play as many games in center field in Yankee Stadium as I did in my daydreams.

I loved playing baseball, even though I didn’t do it very well. I loved wearing the scratchy wool unis, provided not by my parents, but by Bibb Manufacturing Company, our team and town benefactor.

But nobody was denied the opportunity to play baseball because they couldn’t afford a bat.

We made up our own rules.

I was always happy when someone called out “no last strikes” at the beginning of a pickup game. It took some of the sting out of being chosen last. I was also glad when someone shouted no throwing at the runner. I was averse to getting tagged by a thrown ball on purpose. If we didn’t have enough players to field two teams, we would call a batter out for hitting to the opposite field. “Imaginary runners” were common, and we settled our own disputes without umpires or any adult, for that matter. We played all day — from can-to-can’t — and everybody got a hundred at-bats a day.

There have been a lot of improvements in society in the six decades since I was a kid. But a lot of things have gone downhill, as well. Two hundred fifty dollar baseball bats. That is just so, so sad.

I wonder if there are kids outside right now in our area playing roller bat or flies and grounders. Somehow, I don’t think so.

Sigh.

Cagle forgets the cardinal rule of politics There is the story about the preacher who was hard at work saving souls at a tent revival. One person said he had coveted his neighbor’s wife and was remorseful. “Hallelujah, my child, you are forgiven!” the preacher cried.

Another confessed he had once stolen a loaf of bread from the local grocer. “Hallelujah,” said the preacher, “You are forgiven!”

On and on it went with confessions and forgiveness until one man suddenly jumps up and yells, “I kissed a goat.” There was a complete silence in the audience. The preacher looked at him and said quietly, “Son, I don’t think I would have told that.”

Which brings me to Lt. Gov. Casey Cagle. As you no doubt know by now, Cagle told Republican primary foe Clay Tippins a lot of stuff he should have left unsaid in a secretly recorded conversation, including that he had pushed the passage of a bill he described as bad “a thousand different ways” so that another primary opponent, former state Sen.

Cagle told Tippens (or rather the cellphone hidden in his pocket) it “ain’t about public policy. It’s about (expletive) politics.” Give the man credit for telling it like it is. Public policy be damned. Show me the (expletive) money. And we wonder why the public Dick is turned off by politics and Yarbrough politicians?

Some of Cagle’s media and have ol’ Sam Walton’s sycophants have tried to put money to prove it. The bill in the blame on Tippins for sequestion is the latest attack on cretly recording the event, no public education in Georgia doubt blissfully ignorant of by deep-pocketed, out-ofthe “don’t write what you can state special interest groups. say and don’t say what you The “bad policy” bill raises can nod, etc. etc.” rule.

Cagle’s campaign manager,

Scott Binkley, told the Atlanta newspapers that Sen. Tippins “stonewalled” his boss’ education efforts. Oh, please.

Casey Cagle himself brags on the tape that he and the senator “had beaten it to a pulp” in previous years, meaning the private scholarship scheme.

Will the lieutenant governor survive his severe case of diarrhea mouth in the July 24 runoff? A lot depends on whether his Republican opponent, Secretary of State Brian Kemp, will get off his HeeHaw schtick long enough to convince voters that his moral compass points truer than does Casey Cagle’s.

The best thing Cagle has going for him right now is the employ of one of the best communications advisers in the business. Brian Robinson was Gov. Nathan Deal’s communications director and a talented young man for whom I have the highest regard. If anyone can get this political train wreck back on track, it is Robinson. He might just accomplish that and, in doing so, help elect as governor a man we may never again be able to trust to do the right things for the right reasons.

Keith Roach

Heart’s shape affects rhythms DEAR DR. ROACH: My husband had pacemaker surgery in December following a diagnosis of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. Three weeks later, he developed edema in his lower legs. He was treated by his doctor with a diuretic. At his sixweek pacemaker checkup, we brought it up to the cardiac physician assistant that the swelling was still there and that the medication had not been effective. At that time, he had only one more week on the medication. She told him to stay the course and not change anything. He was not on any other medications. Three days later, he passed away from ventricular tachycardia. Could the swelling have been an indication that things besides the myopathy were going on with him? I feel as if not enough attention was given to this symptom. He had eliminated salt from his diet. — A.K. ANSWER: I am very sorry to hear about your husband.

There is no way to be sure about what happened.

Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is a relatively common (1 in 500 people) genetic disease of heart muscle that causes changes in the shape of the heart. This puts people at risk for symptoms, especially chest pain, heart failure and abnormal heart rhythms.

Edema (swelling) of the lower legs can be a sign of heart failure, especially when combined with shortness of breath. However, many people with perfectly normal hearts can develop a bit of swelling after a medical procedure.

Ventricular tachycardia is a dangerous rhythm of the heart that needs to be treated immediately. Having hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is a clear risk for developing ventricular tachycardia, and some people at very high risk are advised to get an automated implantable cardioverter-defibrillator.

In hindsight, your husband should have had one of those, but I don’t see any way his doctor should have known from the information you gave.

DEAR DR. ROACH: My brother has ulcerative colitis that appears to be controlled by medicine. My sister-in-law thinks diatomaceous earth might be of value. Are there any studies on that — pro or con?

— J.S. ANSWER: Diatomaceous earth is a sedimentary rock consisting of fossilized remains of diatoms, small marine animals. It has many uses, especially as an insecticide. It has been used for cattle as an antiparasitic.

There are no studies that show safety or effectiveness of taking diatomaceous earth for any condition. There’s no plausible mechanism I can think of why it would be useful for ulcerative colitis. Therefore, I recommend strongly against it.

I don’t understand why your sister-in-law would recommend a treatment with no proven benefit, and not even any data about, for your brother who is doing well.

Wedding leads to work email feud Dear Amy: A work friend was getting married, and she decided to have her wedding in Las Vegas.

I was not able to attend the wedding, but I made her bridal veil, and participated in a group gift from work friends.

Afterward, she sent a group email at work, thanking all of her “true friends” that “bothered to come to the wedding.” I received no thank you for making the veil.

I am hurt and feel like confronting her, but I’m not sure what to do.

— Jilted friend Dear Jilted: You are right, and the bride is wrong; wedding etiquette (and general decency) states that the bride and groom should send a thank-you note for any gift they receive. That includes a veil.

However, I don’t think you should hold your breath for a thank-you. In terms of confronting her, you may have to stand in line behind other colleagues who want to react to her rudeness.

Her choice to passiveaggressively email her co-workers (presumably through your work email system) about an out-oftown NON-work event is a poor one, and this could end up damaging her.

Think about it: you considered her a friend and you would like to confront her about her behavior. Imagine how other

Equally important, you need to fully accept the fact that you may never win him back. If he decided he doesn’t want to get together, you must accept that and respect his wishes. Wondering and worrying is the price you will pay for your own behavior.

Dear Amy: “Sad Mom/Grandma” was devastated at her kids’ inattention on Mother’s Day. She wants to be reimbursed for “services rendered” — cooking 100,000 meals over the years, etc. Her adult children seemed to do the minimum on this day.

I would rather get calls and visits throughout the year than an obligatory dinner on Mother’s Day. Luckily, I get both.

— Happy Dear Happy: Mother’s Day is an emotionally loaded day for mothers, stepmothers and the kids they raise. I understood this woman’s desire for a modest celebration, other than what she described as “obligatory” phone calls.

I hope she gets what she wants.

gwinnettdailypost.com •From Page 1A teen drivers, means a driver cannot be touching a phone while driving — with some exceptions.

“Georgia drivers are prohibited of having a phone in their hands or from having it touch any part of their body while operating a motor vehicle on the road,” said Garrett Townsend, director of public affairs for AAA in Georgia. “It is certainly a step in right direction as far as reducing distractions, but the truth is, hands-free does not mean risk-free. At AAA, we think (the law) a good opportunity for drivers to try to reduce all distractions while driving.”

At its core, Townsend said, cellphone and mobile device use is not allowed on the roadway — whether that be a private road or a city or state maintained route.

“A roadway is a road where other vehicles operate; a private road is no different than a (public road),” he said.

“Some of the more common questions are, ‘If I’m at a stop sign or red light, can I use my phone?’ The answer is, the law is still in effect and you’re still on the road, so no, you can’t use it, even if you’re stopped. Pulling off the road would allow you to use your device, and a parking lot is not a roadway, but pulling off into a merge lane, for example, wouldn’t be allowed because that’s still a roadway.”

According to the Georgia Governor’s Office of Highway Safety, drivers can only use their phones to make or receive phone calls by using speakerphone, earpieces, wireless headphones or if their phone is connected to a vehicle or an electronic watch.

Touching a phone to answer a call or dial a number is allowed.

While GPS navigation devices are also allowed, Townsend said AAA’s recommendation would be to set the GPS destination before a driver gets on the road.

Already, some GPS applications, such as Waze, detect motion and require those in a moving car to confirm they are a passenger before they start typing an address into the search bar.

Townsend said while the change is a big one for Georgia, AAA hopes it will reduce April 22, 2015 the number of accidents and injuries on the road — something GOHS said it expects.

Last fall, ferred to as Project Rocket, Netherworld opened its new

location a stone’s throw away from where the distribution center will be located.

Meanwhile, Gwinnett County bought the shuttered old Olympic tennis center, also located nearby, two years ago with plans to attract a developer to redevelop the site. The tennis center has been demolished.

What little officials can say about the proposed distribution center is that 1,800 jobs will make a significant impact on the area, regardless of what company is behind the project.

“If a project like that lands in the CID, it will change the entire face of the southern end of the county,” Evermore CID Executive Director Jim Brooks said.

Because of its size, the project has been deemed a “development of regional impact,” which means additional review from state and the Atlanta Regional Commission officials will be needed for it to proceed.

Baker •From Page 1A “I’ll say, after working with Pat for years, you filled the shoes greatly, Pat. I don’t know how they’re going to be able to replace you now.”

Friday was Baker’s last day as the health and human services director and she was feted by colleagues from the county government community agencies during the retirement party at the Lawrenceville Senior Center.

During Baker’s decade in her position, the Gwinnett County Health and Human

Services division opened the Gwinnett Senior Services Center and the Centerville Senior Center, remodeled the Lawrenceville and Buford senior centers, began the remodeling of the Norcross Senior Center and added the Ride Gwinnett transportation program for senior citizens.

This year also marks the 45th anniversary of Gwinnett’s senior services program.

Atlanta Regional Commission Principal Program Coordinator Connie White said Baker is an “incredible

force” when it comes to moving efforts dealing with regional issues involving home and community based programs ahead.

“She has helped me and others sort of try and rejuvenate support groups (for the region),” White said.

Friends of Gwinnett Senior Services President Brad Culp said Baker is also a staunch supporter of senior services programs during her decade leading Health and Human Services as well.

He also dropped a few hints that the Friends of Senior

Services board would like to see Baker continue working with, albeit as a member of the board now.

“Pat has been a stalwart at Friends over the last decade,” he said. “She has made it possible for us to build the group that we’ve built and she’s really helped engender a commitment from every board member. We’ve got a great board and Pat was a big part of that and Friends is really looking forward to having you come around to the other side of the table.”

Baker said she considered

the construction of the Centerville Senior Center and the remodeling of the other centers to be a highlight of her decade overseeing health and human services.

“Being able to bring them up to date,” Baker said about what she was proud of.

“They were all 20-plus years old except the new one so we were able to put things like television (in) and really bring them up to date and (make them) more desirable to the younger seniors that are coming to the centers.”

Baker said she and her

husband, Arch, are planning to do traveling and visit grandchildren in Oklahoma and Oregon now that she’s retired. She also plans to be involved in some local groups that deal with senior citizens and family caregivers. In January, she will begin serving part-time as the director of older adult ministries at St. Andrew’s Presbyterian Church in Tucker.

“I did older adult ministry for a few years in my career, so I’m going to go back to that,” Baker said.

“Just as the vehicle entered into the curve, it left the roadway and went down a slight embankment into the center median. Once in the median, the vehicle began to rotate clockwise and traveled through the median. The vehicle began to barrel roll and did several times before coming to a final, uncontrolled rest in

Duluth cop credited with saving life

By Isabel Hughes

The Duluth Police Department is celebrating one of its officers who, while off-duty, helped save a boy’s life.

Officer Chris Tiller was at the community pool with his wife and daughter when he noticed a father jump into the pool and retrieve his unresponsive son, who wasn’t breathing, according to Officer Ted Sadowski, a spokesman for the department.

Tiller, who noticed the father didn’t know CPR, sprung into action and pulled the father, who was hysterical, aside and started CPR on the child.

Tiller continued chest compressions until the

Shortly thereafter, the boy began breathing on his own and became become alert and conscious.

During the rescue, 911 was contacted and sev-

eral emergency personnel arrived. The boy was checked out by paramedics and was released to his father in good condition.

“We’re proud to have officers, like Officer

Tiller, that go above and beyond on and off-duty,” Sadowski said. “Officer Tiller showed courage and determination to the highest caliber in saving this child’s life.”

address opioids are in the works The office of U.S. Rep. Rob Woodall, R-Ga., had one message for the public this past week: Members of the U.S. House of Representatives are working with local leaders to address the opioid crisis in America.

Woodall’s office is highlighting the work done locally by officials such as Gwinnett County Superior Court Judge Kathy Schrader and state Sen. Renee Unterman, R-Buford, to spotlight the need for additional resources in local communities to fight opioid addiction.

Work between members of the House and local officials have led to a flurry of bills, including more than half a dozen that were scheduled for votes in the chamber over the past week.

“Individuals and families are being irreparably damaged by opioid abuse and addiction,” Woodall said.

“Sadly, there is no cure-all or quick fix to this problem facing our community and our country, but long-term solutions can only be achieved together, and that partnership is exactly what these bills are intended to leverage.”

Woodall’s office said more than 70 bills in all have been approved by the House of Representatives in recent weeks and months to address the opioid crisis across the country.

Some bills his office highlighted were the Comprehensive Opioid Recovery Centers Act 2018, the Synthetic Drug Awareness Act of 2017, the Indexing Narcotics, Fentanyl and Opioids Act of 2017 and the Preventing Overdoses While in Emergency Rooms Act, which would require protocols and a grant program to be developed to addresses overdoses in hospital ERs. “For too long, substance abuse, especially opioid abuse, has hurt families in our community,” Schrader said. “As a result of the opioid crisis, many communities now recognize the lack of resources available to support their citizens. I’m grateful to all our local and federal leaders such as Sen. Unterman, Rep. Woodall and many more for their willingness to address this crisis with collaboration, evidenced-based treatment and resources.”

Biden endorses Abrams in governor’s race Former state Rep. Stacey Abrams has picked up the support of a former vice president of the United States in her bid to be the first African-American woman elected governor of a state.

The Abrams campaign announced former Vice President Joe Biden has endorsed the Democratic Party’s nominee in the gubernatorial race. In a statement, Biden highlighted Abrams’ record in the Georgia House of Representatives as well as her work with Republican leaders in the state.

“Stacey Abrams is a bold leader who knows what it will take to get results for Georgians,” Biden said. “She understands hard work and is committed to finding solutions for the families who come home after a long day of work struggling to get by.

“As House Democratic Leader, she led the fight to stop a tax hike on the middle class, championed Georgia’s public schools, and advocated for Medicaid expansion.

Her experience, track record of building consensus across party H lines, and commitment to listening to every community in the state will make her an excellent governor for the people of Georgia.”

The search moved to the mobile home park where, at about 3 p.m., Hall deputies found Walden hiding in the laundry room of a residence

in the 7000 block of Evergreen Way. Deputies arrested Walden, as well as the resident of the home that Walden was hiding in, Jonathan Kyle Liston, 30, of Buford.

“Liston knew Walden and initially lied to deputies about his presence in the home,” Booth said.

Walden was charged with one felony and two

misdemeanor counts of obstruction of an officer, as well as misdemeanor theft by taking and driving with a suspended license. He is being held on $14,200 bond.

Liston was charged with one misdemeanor count of obstruction of an officer.

His bond was set at $2,950.

As of Wednesday afternoon, both men remained at the Hall County Jail.

Brown adjusting to life as WNBA rookie

“Just trying to get that consistency is what I’m waiting for, but that’s on me, showing that I’m locked in and engaged.”

At North, then at Maryland and, for the last two years at Duke, Brown rarely left the game.

future in that.

“Swimming, the seasons with Buford, had been so much fun for me. The friends I made through swim were just special.

So I decided to try to pursue that.”

DeGoey, a sprint freestyler, joined the Spartan club, but simply as a way to contribute more to the Buford program and not with regularity.

Krug said. “But then she was coming every day and we saw more dedication.

The departure of longtime athletic director Tim Vick and his 43 years of service isn’t the only major change in Greater Atlanta Christian’s athletic program this summer.

Renowned strength and conditioning coach Gary Schofield finished work at the end of May with the Norcross private school, where has spent most of the past 18 years training Spartan athletes. He has trained athletes in Gwinnett for the past 25 years, first in private business — working with college, pro and high school athletes from Berkmar, Brookwood, Duluth and Meadowcreek — and most recently at GAC. The Massachusetts native has begun work with PLAE, a Woodstock-based company that specializes in athletic flooring for training spaces. He is the director of Southeast sales for the company.

“I left GAC at the end of the school year to accept a new professional challenge,” Schofield said. “I joined PLAE on its mission to create active solutions that equip people to achieve their best selves.

I am honestly as energized and excited as I have been in 20 years to begin a new professional journey with a group that I have grown to respect beyond words.

PLAE is a company with a focus on what they can do for the profession, not just what they can get from it. I am honored to join their family.

“This has been the easiest decision I have ever made, but the hardest thing I’ve ever done. Leaving GACS is tough.

It’s home. However, I have learned that all great things come with sacrifice. To be really honest, I am not the father and husband I want or need to be. So I have now decided to pursue what is important.

When all is done, it will not matter how many sets or reps I programmed, how many inches I increased a vertical or how many seconds I cut on a 40 (-yard dash).

In the end, it will be about the love I gave and the love I had for family and friends.

This new journey will eliminate many of the obstacles I have created and allowed to be created in my drive to be a great coach.”

Schofield’s training and enthusiasm have been a staple at GAC, where he often spoke and wrote of creating “monstahs” — his spelling of monsters based

Orioles clinch series over Braves Germany posts FIFA WORLD CUP

Field Level Media

Mark Trumbo hit a first-inning grand slam and Dylan Bundy struck out eight batters over 6 1/3 innings as the visiting Baltimore Orioles held on for a 7-5 interleague victory over the Atlanta Braves on Saturday.

Chris Davis added a three-run double in the fifth inning as the Orioles picked up their seventh consecutive victory over the Braves going back to 2012. Zach Britton pitched the ninth inning for his first save.

The Braves’ Nick Markakis drove in three runs against his former team. He had an RBI single in the first inning and a two-run double in the seventh but struck out looking with the tying run on base in the eighth.

The Orioles, who entered play Saturday with the worst record in baseball, scored 17 runs in consecutive games after

registering six in the ninth inning Saturday and three more in the 15th for a 10-7 victory. Baltimore also entered with the worst run support for their starting pitchers in baseball.

Bundy (6-7) held the National League East leaders to two runs on seven hits with two walks.

Staked to a 4-0 lead before throwing his first pitch, Bundy gave up the

first-inning RBI to Markakis and an RBI single by Ozzie Albies in the fifth inning.

Braves starter Julio Teheran (5-5) gave up seven runs over 4 2/3 innings with six hits and three walks. He has lost in both of his two career starts against the Orioles and has given up 12 total runs in those outings. He did not last five innings in either

start.

Teheran threw six no-hit innings with 11 strikeouts against the San Diego Padres in his previous outing.

That was his return from the disabled list because of a right thumb contusion.

The Orioles used two walks and a double from Adam Jones in front of Trumbo’s grand slam to take a 4-0 lead four batters into the game.

Bundy helped start a fifth-inning rally with a single, his first major league hit. Singles by Colby Rasmus and Jones loaded the bases for Davis’ bases-clearing double off the top of the rightfield wall.

The Braves, who have not had a winning record in interleague play since 2013, are 4-5 against the American League this season. The Orioles are 6-8 in interleague play this season.

The game was slowed by a 20-minute rain delay in the seventh inning.

League powers face off in Atlanta Field Level Media Darlington Nagbe will get a shot at his old squad when the Atlanta United host the Portland Timbers on Sunday in a battle of two teams in quality form at Mercedes-Benz Stadium.

Nagbe, a smooth, play-making midfielder, spent seven seasons with the Timbers before being acquired by Atlanta this offseason. United sent a potential total of $1.65 million to Portland for Nagbe. It’s paid off in the early going for the Five Stripes, who lead MLS with 33 points.

win no matter who you’re playing against,” Nagbe told MLSsoccer.com.

“So there’s no conflicting emotions, but I’m looking forward to seeing the

guys.”

The Timbers are unbeaten in their last eight games, including six wins, but Sunday’s showdown at Atlanta will be their toughest test of the season to this point.

“You can see that offensively, it’s a very strong team,” Portland head coach Giovanni Savarese said of Atlanta in his weekly press conference.

“It’s a team that has resources, creativity. They’re very dynamic. They can be dangerous and punish you even in moments that, maybe, they’re not playing as well, because they have the quality to score goals and create situations.”

dramatic win over Sweden Field Level Media Toni Kroos scored the decisive goal in the fifth minute of stoppage time as Germany defeated Sweden 2-1 on Saturday in a Group F match at Sochi, Russia.

The game-winning goal came with Germany playing a man down after Jerome Boateng received a red card in the 82nd minute for his second yellow card foul of the match. Marco Rues scored in the 48th minute for the defending World Cup champions, which has three points in two games.

Ola Toivonen scored in the 32nd minute for Sweden, which also has three points.

Germany was in danger of suffering a damaging tie before Kroos lined up for a free kick in the 95th minute.

His shot curled past Sweden goalkeeper Robin Olsen and into the net, and the match was halted two minutes later.

Germany had a 16-8

edge in shots, but Sweden put more shots on goal — 6 to 5.

Mexico 2, South Korea 1 Mexico followed up its World Cup-opening win against Germany with another dominant performance by beating South Korea in Rostov-On-Don as it eyes a spot in the knockout round.

The only blemish for El Tri came on a stoppage time goal by Son Heung-Min to make it close, but time was called shortly after the goal to give Mexico six points and first place in Group F. Sweden and Germany each have three points.

Mexico faces Sweden on Wednesday in its final Group F match.

Carlos Vela opened the scoring with a 26thminute penalty kick. Javier “Chicharito” Hernandez provided what proved to be the game winner in the 66th minute — his 50th international goal, most in Mexico national team history.

Acuna started the 2018 season with Triple-A Gwinnett where he hits .232 and tallied a .638 OPS. Things started to look up for Acuna near his late-April call-up. He had three multi-hit games in his last 10 Triple-A games and recorded a hit in eight of those games.

Dealing with the earlyseason slump, he said, was a humbling experience.

“It’s definitely been crucial and helped me develop a lot, not just as a baseball player but develop as a person on and off the field,” Acuna said.

As far as how long Acuna will stay in Gwinnett, that’s not for him to decide. While he felt like he got through his first rehab start without any major hiccups, he speculated he could return to Atlanta as soon as Monday.

“I’m just going to do what I can here, play a couple games,” he said before Friday’s game.

“I’m sure after two or three games, they’ll make an evaluation.”

Coming off that win at Michigan and with his enviable track record here at Sonoma, Bowyer finds himself in prime position in the championship chase.

PUBLIC NOTICE – TAX INCREASE

The City of Lawrenceville Mayor and Council does hereby announce that the millage rate will be set a t a meeting to be held at the City Hall located at 70 S Clayton Street on July 18, 2017 at 7:00 PM 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 the levy for the past five years.

The Gwinnett County Tax Assessor is required to review the assessed value of property in the county which includes the cities on a regular basis. When there is a change in the fair market value of property, the Tax Assessor must adjust the value of real property to reflect that fair market value of real property in the County. This process is known as property reassessment.

CURRENT 2017 TAX DIGEST AND FIVE YEAR HISTORY OF LEVY

The Lawrenceville City Council is carrying out a deliberate strategy to increase the quality of life for the citizens of the City by providing additional high quality municipal services. In previous years the City has rolled back the millage rate so that there was a net tax savings. By not ‘rolling back’ the millage and adopting a millage of 1.909, which is the same as last year, instead of 1.826, the City must advertise a tax increase.

Brown bad my freshman year of

•From Page 1B history to accumulate over 2,000 points, 500 assists, 300 steals and 200 3-pointers. Her 122 steals in 201718 broke a Duke singleseason record.

“I’ve grown up that way, which makes me a rhythm player,” Brown said. “Going in in spurts is just something I’m going to have to adjust my game to. It’s not what I’m comfortable with, but life is about making uncomfortable situations comfortable.”

The last two months have been a whirlwind.

Brown was one of just 10 players invited to attend the WNBA draft at Nike’s New York headquarters in April and Connecticut selected her at No. 9 overall.

“It was exciting and a little nerve-racking,” Brown said. “It’s always been a dream of mine to get invited to the WNBA draft so to be able to check that off my list was really cool. Even for the other nine girls, we all earned it. It was something we all worked our whole lives for and to be one of 10, that’s amazing.

“It was such a fun experience. We spent a couple of days in New York and had a blast. My family was up there with me so it was awe-

some.”

Brown was back at Duke for class the next morning.

“I kind of went back to regular life for a few weeks, took finals, had a couple of conversations with (Connecticut coach Curt Miller) about what he expected out of me in training camp,” Brown said.

She was able to take her finals a week early and immediately headed for Connecticut.

“My (Blue Devil) teammates and my friends, they were so supportive and helped me pack up my apartment,” Brown said. “I had to do everything really fast. I think actually, the other day, one of my coaches she got the last of my stuff out of my apartment.

So it’s been a process. My mom had to go up to North Carolina once or twice to get some of my stuff a little at a time.

“It’s happened really fast, but it’s a blessing and I wouldn’t want it any other way.”

Logistics aside, the move to professional basketball was unlike anything Brown had been through.

“From high school to college, you get there four months before the season starts,” Brown said. “I don’t remember struggling this

“I’m learning so much from them, but hopefully as the season goes on, I’ll be able to earn more minutes and as my career goes on, I’ll be able to establish myself,” Brown said. “I’m in one of the better situations as a rookie. I’m not playing as much as I’d like to, but I’m learning a ton.

“The goal is to have a long career. You just have to stay focused and have tunnel vision. I’m here for a reason and I can’t forget that.”

Brown can turn to teammates, including Morgan Tuck, who is in her second pro season after a career at UConn, for perspective.

“They just tell me to stay patient and not get discouraged,” she said.

It’s not easy for a driven Brown.

“I just want to be able to make my mark as soon as possible,” she said. “I don’t like to wait for things to happen; I want to go get it.

It’s a little harder in my situation, but the first step was making it.

“That’s the hardest part, getting into the league. I have friends on the outside wishing they were in our shoes. So I have to wake up and be thankful that Coach Curt (Miller) has given me this chance to be a part of the WNBA.”

college. The girls are still so young and not as strong.

“Everything is a lot more structured in college, too.”

Brown was frustrated and questioning herself.

“I’m like, ‘Why am I still in adjustment period?’”

Brown said. “But you’ve got to think back — I’ve only been in the league two months and you go straight into games. There’s not really a lot of time to learn.

You just have to learn as you go.

“I’m just happy I’m on a really great team with great players. We’re having a really successful start to our season and I love to win.

I hate to lose so to be on a team that has a winning culture that they’ve been working for was awesome for me. I couldn’t imagine going through this on top of losing a lot.”

The Sun were 21-13 last season despite playing without all-star Chiney Ogwumike and 7-4 coming into Friday’s game in Atlanta.

But being on an upperechelon team with veteran guards like fifth-year pro Alex Bentley and Jasmine Thomas, a fellow Duke alum in her seventh season, means Brown must play a different role than she has for a lifetime.

But I don’t look at what “I ended up pulling out of

That was hard, too, but it was definitely worth it.”

Also weighing on her was being the last of her large circle of friends to pick a college.

“Everyone was committed to go play volleyball or track or whatever and I was sitting here like, ‘Oh gosh,’” DeGoey said. “It was nervewracking. I did feel like one of the only people who hadn’t figured out where they were going so that was stressful.”

In May, her dad, Tom, talked to the head coach at Pepperdine.

“I didn’t want to get too excited, but I couldn’t help it,” she said.

A few days later, during the dead week before finals, she took a red-eye out to

California. She met with the coaching staff and, not surprisingly, loved the Malibu campus.

“Our goal was to figure it out before school ended,” DeGoey said. “It was so crazy.”

She committed to Pepperdine and graduated a week later.

“Everything about it was last-minute,” DeGoey said.

Consequently, she’s going to be a walk-on as a freshman with the chance to earn a scholarship the following year. It’s a long way to California, but her mom’s family lives nearby. There are nerves, but not many.

“In a way, I feel kind of fearless because I’m just so excited,” DeGoey said. “I just can’t see how it won’t be so much fun.”

IN BREIF Shiloh grad Solomon tabbed for academic all-American honor Shiloh High School grad and Georgia Tech distance runner Nahom Solomon earned a men’s track/cross country academic all-American distinction from College Sports Information Directors of America according to an announcement from Georgia Tech on Friday.

The award recognizes the nation’s top student-athletes for their combined performances athletically and academically. Solomon was named to the academic all-district team in late May. Solomon will spend the summer as an intern for the technology company Intel. On the track, Solomon qualified for the 2018 NCAA Championships in Eugene, Ore., and finished 19th overall. He was the second Yellow Jacket in school history to qualify for the 10Kmeter run.

Solomon broke four track and field school records in both the indoor and 5,000-meter, indoor 3,000-meter and

10,000-meter.

He was named to the cross country all-American team and qualified for the 2017 NCAA Championships. He was also the recipient of the Atlantic Coast Conference Scholar-Athlete of the Year award.

world Landmark day for Saudi women as driving ban ends Women in Saudi Arabia can legally get behind the wheel of a car for the first time Sunday as the kingdom lifts its longstanding ban on women driving.

The end of the controversial ban brings the ultraconservative Gulf nation into line with the rest of the world.

It also represents the culmination of years of campaigning by activists who have sometimes been arrested and imprisoned for their efforts.

The step will free many women from the constraints of needing to use public transportation or hire a male driver to travel even small distances, allowing many more to join the workforce.

Hiring women is a key part of Saudi Arabia’s ambitious plan to overhaul its economy, known as Vision 2030. The reform agenda is being spearheaded by Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman.

Brexit marchers demand final vote on departure Thousands of people marched Saturday through central London on the second anniversary of the Brexit referendum, demanding that the U.K. government give people a chance to make the final decision on whether it goes into effect next year.

The rally was organized by several pro-European Union campaign groups and dubbed the People’s Vote march. Organizers say that if a Brexit deal is rejected by the Parliament, citizens should have a vote on any final terms of the U.K.’s exit out of the EU. The initiative to leave the EU goes into effect March 29, 2019.

The rally started at noon at London’s central Pall Mall street, and finished at Parliament Square. Neither the London Metropolitan Police nor Westminster Council — the borough authority where the march took place — would comment on the crowd’s size. The BBC reported there were tens of thousands of protesters and a smaller pro-Brexit counterprotest.

2 arrested in gang rape in India; 4 more sought Six men have been accused of rape in connection with a gang rape this week of five female anti-trafficking workers in a village in eastern India, police told CNN on Saturday.

Two of the six men have been arrested and charged, while police said they are looking for the other four. A man who helps run a school in the village also has been arrested and charged in connection with abetting the attack.

Police said the attack took place Tuesday in Kochang village in Khunti district in the state of Jharkhand, the same region where two teens were raped and then set on fire last month.

Jogger accidentally crosses U.S. border from Canada, detained for 2 weeks

By Nicole Chavez CNN

A woman jogging along a beach accidentally crossed the U.S. border from Canada and ended up detained in Washington state.

Cedella Roman, 19, was visiting her mother from France when she went jogging last month just south of White Rock, British Columbia. She mistakenly continued jogging into Blaine, Wash., she told CNN partner CBC.

Must read As Roman stopped to take a picture of the view, she turned around and saw two U.S. Border Patrol officers approaching her.

“He stopped me and started telling me I had crossed the border illegally. I told him I really hadn’t done it on purpose, and didn’t understand what was happening to me,” she told the CBC. Roman, a French citizen, was not carrying any documents at

the time.

“They put me in the caged vehicles and brought me into their facility,” she said. “They asked me to remove all my personal belongings with my jewelry, they searched me everywhere.

Then I understood it was getting very serious, and I started to cry a bit,” Roman added.

US Border Patrol arrested Roman on May 21 and transferred her to an immigration detention center in Tacoma, Wash., according to Carissa Cutrell,

public affairs officer with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement.

“If an individual enters the United States at a location other than an official port of entry and without inspection by a Customs and Border Protection officer, they have illegally entered the United States and will be processed accordingly,” Customs and Border Protection said.

“It is the responsibility of an individual traveling in the vicinity of an international border

to maintain awareness of their surroundings and their location at all times to ensure they do not illegally cross the border.”

Authorities received Roman’s “travel documents” three days after her arrest, but it wasn’t until days later that both Canadian and American immigration officials determined she could enter Canada. She remained in custody for a total of two weeks.

She was taken to the U.S.Canadian border near Blaine on June 5, Cutrell said.

The area at the intersection of Peachtree Parkway and Medlock Bridge Road is perhaps most well-known today as the home of The Forum shopping center, with its upscale retail shops. But it was almost home to something very different.

Before the shopping center was proposed in the mid2000s, the site was pitched to Gwinnett County leaders as a future site for a Lowe’s, according to county Commissioner Lynette Howard — who was not in elected office at the time. Howard was a private citizen at the time but she lived three blocks from the site, and residents did not want Lowe’s going in there, she said.

They wanted something more upscale, a place to do shopping and maybe grab a bite to eat on a Friday night.

“We rallied as a community to have The Forum and something that looked like it,” she said. “We went all the way from they had pictures of awnings and fountains and they took them out when the zoning came about and the community — we all went nuts — so they all have awnings and they have all of our fountains.”

Now that The Forum has been in place for a number of years, Peachtree Corners officials are looking to extend its atmosphere across the street with the Town Center development that is under construction. Parts of the development are expected to begin opening this year.

The Town Center development has been in the works for years under the purview of Peachtree Corners officials since the city came into existence in 2012. Construction began a year ago as the city celebrated its fifth anniversary in June 2017.

The city sold 12 acres of the 21-acre site to Fuqua Development in 2017 so develop the retail and restaurant areas

Buildings in the Town Center development in Peachtree Corners are taking shape a year after ground was broken for the public-private project.

Construction crews do surveying work at the Town Center development in Peachtree Corners.

Officials expect the first parts of the development to open by end of the year, which much of the retail and public areas expected to be fully open by next spring.

while the city is taking on responsibility for building public spaces.

Fast forward one year and a parking deck for the devel-

opment is nearly complete.

Buildings where restaurants and retail shops will eventually be located are also largely taking shape.

The ground has also been cleared for the 74 upscale town homes that will be built at the back end of the development. The town homes,

which are being developed

by InLine Communities, are expected to be in the $400,000 to $500,000 price range.

Three Gwinnett students place in GPB Writers Contest Three second-grade students from Gwinnett were named top finishers in the 2018 PBS KIDS Writers Contest during an awards celebration at the Georgia Public Broadcasting headquarters in Atlanta. Winners were chosen from hundreds of entries from Georgia children. The annual PBS Kids Writers Contest is the largest annual writing competition of its kind for children in kindergarten through third grade.

Duluth resident Stanley Wu finished first with his story “The Magical Castle,” while Grayson resident Sofia Sevilla-Cintron’s “The Chameleon with No Color” placed third in the second grade category. The STEAM Award went to Buford resident Annabelle Mbigi for her story “Rose’s Cow-Tastic Moo Plastic Project.”

Award celebration attendees were treated to puppet-

making with the Center for Puppetry Arts, storytelling with Mama Koku, and slime-making with Katherine Warren. They also got to narrate their award-winning stories at the GPB Radio studios.

In addition to providing an outlet for children to explore their imagination and express their creativity, the PBS KIDS Writers Contest helps families and teachers use creative writing as a literacy building skill.

Grade levels were judged by a panel of qualified professionals, based on originality, creative expression, storytelling technique, illustrations and overall impression.

shop or eat. Companies are also attracted to it, he said.

“Today, businesses, corporations want the flexibility to walk out of their office, turn left to go to a coffee shop, turn right to go to a restaurant, maybe even live within walking distance for the business person,” Masino said. “That is a very, very hot trend and we need more of that in Gwinnett County and we’re really excited about that option (in Peachtree Corners).

“That is one of our largest clusters of jobs in the region so giving (business employees) that option would be awesome.”

Tying the Town Center into the surrounding area The buildings match the architectural style of the neighboring Peachtree Corners Marketplace and The Forum developments.

One thing that officials, not only those working for the city but those involved outside of it as well, pointed to is that the Town Center will expand what the existing shopping centers around it began.

Howard said she sees the Town Center serving as something of a continuation of The Forum — which predates the city by a few years.

“When the city bought (the property), the community really wanted to have a continuation of The Forum, and they wanted it to be on both sides (of Peachtree Parkway),” Howard said.

And that is what it will be, according to Wheeler, who said Town Center is almost like a Phase II of The Forum.

Peachtree Corners officials envision residents and visitors spending the day shopping in The Forum and then heading across Peachtree Parkway to relax and unwind at the Town Center site.

“It’s, in a way, kind of like bookends on two sides of the roadway,” Wheeler said. “It’s sort of the same concept (as the Forum) of a regional attraction, but we didn’t want to compete with The Forum. We wanted to augment what was there.

“The Forum has a lot of really good stores, shops, things like that, but they are lacking some things. They’re lacking places for entertainment.

They’re lacking gathering spaces. They have a few restaurants, but not a lot of restaurants, and so the Town Center is really

meant to supplement The Forum with those things that you don’t see a lot of at the Forum.”

Restaurant, retail lineup taking shape CineBistro, which is a luxury movie theater that offers full service dining, was the first tenant in the development that was confirmed, and it is expected to open around February.

“It will be a little different from the CineBistro concepts in other locations,” Wheeler said. “It’s going to have higher end dining and they’ll have a full bar and movies geared primarily toward an older audience, not as much for the kids.”

Beyond CineBistro, a tentative list of tenants provided by the city includes made-to-order doughnuts business Duck Donuts, Chronic Tacos, Kremo Ice Cream, First Watch, My Salon Suite, Hollywood Feed, Marlow’s Tavern, Farm Burger, Feed Fried Chicken, Firebirds Wood Fired Grill, Revelator Coffee, Salanta Salad Bar, Steel City Pops, Thai Express and Tipsy Salonbar.

Fuqua officials could not be reached for comment for this article.

“It’s exciting (because of) the vendors that want to be there,” Howard said.

“It’s pretty much A-team (businesses) that want to be there.”

Wheeler said the restaurants and retail businesses slated to be in the Town Center development are expected to open over the course of a period ranging from this fall to next spring.

One factor that will play a part in how long it takes to finish a restaurant’s space, for example, will be how much space it plans to take up in the development.

“Some restaurants are pretty big and some are fairly small,” Wheeler said.

“We’ve got some that are more like the ice cream shop kind of thing — those are pretty small — and then we’ve got Firebirds, which is a huge restaurant with outdoor dining and that sort of thing so that’s going to take a while to get that together. That won’t be done this year.”

Howard said she is looking forward to many of the restaurants that have been announced for the site, but the fact that First Watch is on the list has her especially excited.

“I can’t wait,” she said.

“I won’t have to go to Dunwoody anymore.”

What exactly is ‘hate speech’ — and who decides?

Twenty years ago, I’d never heard the phrase “hate speech.” If you’d asked me back then, I would have said it sounded like something out of a George Orwell novel — which is actually pretty close to the truth.

Nowadays, I hear it used constantly, always by leftists, to describe anything from support for tax cuts to arguments against illegal immigration. In other words, “hate speech” has come to mean any position the left disagrees with.

As such, they delight in wielding the phrase as a blunt instrument against conservatives. I guess they figure, if they characterize every single

Rob Jenkins thing we say as “hate speech,” then we’ll stop saying it. No one wants to be accused of “hate,” right?

We’re not falling for it anymore. It’s time to call the left’s bluff—to expose their semantic emperor’s utter nakedness.

At worst, “hate

speech” is a term invented by the ostensibly “tolerant” left to justify their intolerance. At best, it’s a gross miscarriage of grammar. “Hate” can be either a noun or a verb, but not an adjective. The correct term would be “hateful speech.”

That’s actually a real thing. Of course, the Supreme Court has repeatedly affirmed that even hateful speech is protected by the First Amendment. But it’s still not nice to say mean things about people. My parents taught me that when I was three.

In order to qualify as genuinely hateful, however, speech must meet three criteria.

First, it must actually express hatred. Simply disagreeing with somebody does not qualify, nor does disapproving of someone’s actions. That’s one of the left’s biggest lies: If you believe a person’s behavior is wrong, you must hate them.

What complete nonsense. Over the years I have disapproved of a lot of people’s behavior, including my own children’s at times. That doesn’t mean I love them any less. And it certainly doesn’t mean I hate them.

Second, speech that is truly hateful must be aimed at an individual or group, not an idea.

I confess: I hate socialism. It’s an evil, unjust,

morally bankrupt ideology that has been responsible for much human pain and suffering. Yet I know several self-proclaimed socialists, and I don’t hate any of them.

In fact, I consider some of them friends.

Finally, in order to qualify as hateful, speech must reflect an opinion, not state a fact. Opinions can indeed be meanspirited, but facts are by definition neutral. Simply pointing out something undeniably true is not, in itself, an expression of hatred.

For example, it’s not “hate speech” to say that, among humans, there are only two biological sexes: Either you have an

Southern women and their high heels Recently, a friend was telling me that her mother, a most charming Southern woman, had to give up her high heels.

She is 76 and the loss for her has been immense.

“She wore them three or four years longer that she might oughta have,” my friend said.

I understand.

It’s hard to accurately describe my love affair with high heels. When I was a sports writer, I wore them on the sidelines of many a football game. At least twice, I was able to dodge a couple of running backs who were forced into the sidelines by the defensive line.

In all the years that I

Ronda Rich was in NASCAR, I never once went to the track when I wasn’t wearing heels at least 3 inches high. One year, back in the days when Daytona’s Firecracker 400 was run on July 4 beginning at 10 a.m. and lasting until 2 p.m. or so, I was dressed in a red pencil straight skirt and high heels. I

was in the pits, watching the scoring board. None of my Buick drivers were in the Top 5. With two laps to go — and thinking that a Chevy was winning — I sauntered down pit road, heading back to the garage area when I noticed a lot of tension in Bobby Allison’s pits. He was one of my drivers.

“Why are y’all so anxious?” I asked one of my friends on Bobby’s crew.

“Because we’re about to win this race!”

I glanced at the scoring board then looked back at him. “No, you’re not.

Bobby’s a lap down.”

“The board’s wrong.

He’s leading the race!”

My heart stopped. I

was at least half a mile from the garage area and the truck where my Buick hats were stored.

This was my most important job: Getting a Buick hat on a driver when he pulled into Winner’s Circle so we could get press coverage. It was a hundred degrees, and there I was in high heels — but I took off a-runnin’ like a bear was chasing me. This is a pretty unusual sight — a woman in a skirt and heels running through the pits. The guys watched as I ran past them, urging me on, “Run, girl, run!”

I made it to the truck, got the hats, and ran over a half-mile back in the same heels and heat. I

got into Winner’s Circle just as Bobby pulled in. I plopped the hat on him as soon as he came out of the car then sank to the ground beside the car. Bobby was in a very good mood, having just won the race, so he looked down and laughed. “What’s wrong with you?”

“Don’t ask,” I replied as I fought back total collapse.

Even that incident didn’t drive me toward wearing more sensible shoes. I had been an admirer of a woman, well into her 80s, who was late for church every Sunday morning. Normally, she would arrive about 15 minutes before the sermon ended.

Ceremoniously, she’d throw open the front door then prance down the aisle. She was always exquisitely dressed and tottered quite well in a pair of very high heels.

She was my hero, to the extent that I immortalized her in my first book.

About three years ago, I went to visit at the hospital. I got on the elevator with a woman who was probably somewhere in her 60s. She cast an eye downward to my high heels.

“I used to wear heels like that,” she said in a somewhat angry tone.

Then hatefully she continued, “Enjoy them while you can.”

“If I get to where I can’t wear high heels,” I replied, “I’ve told everyone to just shoot me like a downed horse and put me out of my misery.”

She didn’t laugh — which was good because I wasn’t joking.

Congratulations, you got the job. Now it’s time for you to actually start working.

A first day at a new job can feel like drinking from a fire hose, with new names, tons of products, systems, policies, etc. Depending on your company, you might spend your first day in a great onboarding experience, or you might be stuck in a room with an HR manual or you might just be thrown into work.

Regardless of how your organization handles your first day experience, you can start strong by creating a plan for success on your own. Whether it’s your first job or you’re taking on a senior role, (or you want to pass this along to a someone who needs it) here are five things to help you rock your first day of work: 1. Know the names and faces. This is where LinkedIn will be your friend. The sea of people on your first day is super overwhelming. Looking up people who work at the company you’re now working for will give you a jump start.

2. Learn the company story. You likely already did research during the interview process. Take it even further now. Make sure you’ve read the annual report and CEO message, learn their products, and know who their customers are. Whatever your role, you should understand how money flows through the business, and where the critical success points are.

If they have a retail or online operation, experience the company as a customer. Order something, eat or shop there.

You want to know: What’s it like to do business with this firm?

3. Map out the logistics. Make sure you know where to park and what to wear. Elizabeth, my oldest daughter and business partner, reminds me of her faux pas in her first restaurant job. She says, “I was 17, and very excited.

I showed up, parked in front, and walked in. And it wasn’t until halfway through the day, I realized all the other employees parked out back.” Most managers will give you the lowdown. If they don’t, ask.

When I started my first job, my father wisely told me to drive the route the week before in peak traffic, so I’d know what to

How to rock your first day at work

“

expect. Pre Google maps, this advice was extremely helpful. Even today, driving your commute during rush hour a time or two and navigating the parking will give you more confidence on your first day. Your brain won’t be preoccupied with processing details about which turn to take.

4. Ask the smart questions. Before asking a million questions, give your manager, or whoever is training you, the opportunity to speak first. A lot of companies have amazing onboarding programs, and you might be surprised how many of your burning questions they end up answering really quickly.

That said, if you don’t understand something, ask. People are a lot more forgiving in your first few days than they are three months down the road if they realize you’ve been doing it wrong the whole time.

5. Be coachable. You don’t have to prove you know everything on the first day. A lot of people make the mistake of trying to impress others quickly by demonstrating their knowledge. Instead, the early days are more about listening and learning. Pay attention, take direction and be thankful to whoever is taking the time to train you. You can assimilate the information into stellar performance quickly if you’re coachable.

You only get one chance at a first impression. Do your homework, and show up ready to rock it.

Three Braselton police officers were recently honored by Braselton Police Chief Terry Esco and Mayor Bill Orr for rescuing a man and his dogs from a house fire.

Sgt. Steven Folkers, officer Josh Lindsay and Sgt. Christopher Earls entered a burning home in the Mulberry Park subdivision in May and rescued the homeowner, who was sleeping, and the animals, according to a news release.

Visibility inside the home was poor because of heavy smoke from the fire, but the officers cleared the entire house of occupants.

Orr presented the officers with lifesaving awards during a work session of the Braselton Town Council. Folkers and Lindsay accepted the awards; Earls was unable to attend the ceremony.
