N SPECIAL SECTIOITY INSIDE COMMUN

2 overdose, die in same hour, area FROM STAFF REPORTS Two Lawrenceville men in the same neighborhood died of overdoses less than an hour apart on Friday morning.

They lived only 0.3 miles from one another, and similar “drug packaging” was found in each house.

The first call came into the Gwinnett Police Department at 6:09 a.m. from a house on Turtle Creek Way. The caller told officials that a young man was unresponsive. Officers and members of the Gwinnett County Department of Fire and Emergency Services “quickly responded to the home,” said Cpl. Michele Pihera.

But the young man died.

At 6:53 a.m., officials were called to the same neighborhood, this time to a home on Turtle Creek Court for what began as a medical call for another young man. He also died.

At the scene of both deaths, officers found white sheets of paper folded up into multiple squares to create an envelope. The paper at the first home was large. At the second home it was smaller and ripped into a rectangle.

Investigators believe these were drug packaging, but they still don’t know what kinds of drugs they may have held.

“It is still possible that these overdose deaths were unintentional,” Pihera said. “It’s extremely important that we identify the source of this substance so investigators can try to prevent any further deaths.”

Anybody with information to share in this case should call GCPD detectives at 770-513-5300. To remain anonymous, tipsters can contact Crime Stoppers at 404-577-8477. Tipsters can also text tips to 274637 or visit www.crimestoppersatlanta.org.

Crime Stoppers tipsters can receive up to $2,000 for information leading to an arrest and indictment in this case.

Gwinnett to remember fallen Braselton cop on Memorial Day

BY CURT YEOMANS

curt.yeomans @gwinnettdailypost.com

The Gwinnett Fallen Heroes Memorial is a place where the names of fallen troops from the county are honored, but it’s also a place where local fallen police officers, sheriff’s deputies and firefighters are remembered.

On Monday, another name will be added to the memorial.

County officials will unveil the addition of Braselton Police Sgt. Todd Helcher’s name on one of the black marble pillars that form a halfcircle at the memorial.

Helcher died in a car accident in Hall County 12 years ago, and county officials were recently asked, and agreed, to add

on Monday.

“Helcher, (who was a resident) of Clarksville, was a 16-month veteran of the Braselton Police Department when he was killed in July 2005 in a car crash as he was driving home from work,” county officials said in an announcement of the upcoming ceremony.

The ceremony will begin at 1 p.m. at the memorial, which is located at the Gwinnett Justice and Administration Center, 75 Langley Drive in Lawrenceville. In addi-

G-Braves recognizing WWI ‘doughboys’

BY CURT YEOMANS

curt.yeomans @gwinnettdailypost.com

One hundred years ago, the Chicago White Sox were a few months away from becoming baseball’s new World Series champion.

While the 1917 season progressed, however, the United States was jumping into the war to end all wars, The Great War, also known as World War I. The war in Europe had been going on for close to three years by that point, but the U.S. had just officially joined the conflict on the side of Britain, France and their allies in April of that year.

Now, the Gwinnett Braves and other teams in the International League are partnering with the U.S. World War I Centennial Commission to remember the dough boys who fought in that war during a special Memorial Day commemoration.

“The Gwinnett Braves are proud to join with the rest of the International League and with the WW1CC to honor those that served and sacrificed for our country during World War I,” Gwinnett Braves General Manager North Johnson

said in a statement. “This Memorial Day at Coolray Field, we will be partnering with the U.S. Army and the non-profit group Working Dogs for Vets to observe this 100-year milestone.”

injured an 8-year-old boy last week.

The boy’s father and the rest of his family were sitting at the dining room table in their house on Marshes Glenn Drive on May 20 while the 8-yearold was sprawled on the ground watching videos on a cellphone, according to a police report.

When the father first heard the six loud pops, he wasn’t alarmed. He assumed his son had begun popping some of the balloons they had in the house at the time.

Then the boy started crying.

“That is when (the father) noticed that his son

was bleeding from his right lower leg and called 911,” according to the police report.

Responding officers found three shell casings on the street outside the house. They also saw four bullet holes in the side of the home.

A neighbor heard the gunshots. She said she

looked out the window and saw a red SUV with a gray stripe down the side of it occupied by four black men speed away from the area.

The Gwinnett County Sheriff’s Fugitive Unit and the Gwinnett County Police believe they found two of those men Thursday.

Officials found Kevin Ortiz (listed as Kevin Corrales in the jail log) and Jonathan Augustine Yanez-Gomez hiding in the attic of a Lawrenceville house.

Both surrendered and are being held at the Gwinnett County jail on charges of aggravated assault with a firearm from a motor vehicle, according to a press release.

carry a World War I theme with special giveaways, local history presentations and local veteran group representation.

Mini flags and packets of poppy seeds will also be handed out at the game.

The red poppy flower is a common symbol used to remember the people who fought in World War I. It’s a reference to Moina Michael’s poem, “In Flanders Fields,” which references the poppy flower being the first thing to grow from the graves of World War I soldiers in Flanders.

The centennial commission was set up by Congress to mark the 100th anniversary of America’s entry into the first world war through public outreach, educational and commemorative events and work on a national

World War I Memorial in Washington D.C. The national commission is also working with Georgia’s World War I Commission on programs and activities in this state.

“This is a great opportunity for the World War I Centennial Commission, to partner with the people of the league, the teams, and with the fans, to remember these American veterans, and what they did for us all,” World War I Centennial Commission Executive director Dan Dayton said in a statement.

International League President Randy Mobley pointed out that some of the biggest names in baseball a century ago joined the military and fought in the war. That gives the Gwinnett Braves, and the rest of the league, an opportunity to also recognize some of the sport’s early heroes.

“The story of baseball has roots in World War I, and the story of World War I has close ties with baseball,” Mobley said in a statement. “One hundred years ago, hundreds of professional and semi-professional players put their baseball careers on hold in order to serve overseas in the war, including Ty Cobb, Christy Mathewson and Eddie Grant.

“The International League is proud to partner with the WW1CC on this important commemoration and it is fitting that baseball be part of our national tribute to those who served in WW1.”

world&nation world Car bomb kills 18 in Afghanistan as Ramadan starts A car bombing killed at least 18 people Saturday morning in eastern Afghanistan, the latest strike in a war-weary nation now observing the start of the holy Muslim month of Ramadan.

The brazen attack belied the spirit of Ramadan, a period marked the world over by prayer, fasting and charity.

Six people also were wounded in the attack, carried out near a bus station in the city of Khost, Interior Ministry spokesman Najib Danish said.

The Taliban claimed responsibility for the attack.

A suicide bomber driving an explosive-packed vehicle targeted an Afghan military convoy in the attack, according to Taliban Spokesman Zabiullah Mujahid.

Rival militias clash in Tripoli, leaving 47 dead At least 47 people were killed in fierce clashes between rival militias in Libya, the Ministry of Health said.

The fighting in Libya’s capital of Tripoli injured 183 others and officials said they expect more casualties.

Violence began Friday when anti-government militias launched an offensive called “Libya pride” against the United Nations-backed Government of National Accord.

Residents heard loud explosions, gunfire and tanks rolling down the streets.

Photos circulating on social media showed plumes of smoke rising in different areas and militiamen on the streets.

“Can hear explosions and artillery fire in south Tripoli. Condemn action by these militias who threaten security of Libyans, especially before Ramadan,” British Ambassador to Libya Peter Millett wrote on Twitter.

Biden: Election tapped dark emotions

Gregg Allman dies at age 69

By Jennifer Hansler CNN

Former Vice President Joe Biden delivered another stinging indictment of President Donald Trump in a college convocation speech Saturday without ever mentioning the president by name.

“This past election season churned up some of the ugliest realities that still remain in our country,” Biden said at Cornell University, echoing criticism he has voiced since November’s election. “Civilized discourse and real debate gave way to the coarsest rhetoric stroking our darkest emotions.”

“I thought we had passed the days where it was acceptable for political leaders on local and national levels to bestow legitimacy to hate speech and fringe ideologies,” he continued.

Biden accused Trump of capitalizing on the worries of voters who were “uncertain and anxious.”

“We saw how playing to their fears, rather their hopes, rather than their better angels, can still be a powerful political tool,” Biden said.

Biden directly referred to Trump only once as “your president.” However, he denounced a number of Trump’s proposals, including his plans to build a border wall and his travel ban from certain Muslim-majority countries.

Biden slammed the notion that the United States has fallen behind other nations, saying that it “was time for the country to wake up.”

The former vice president noted that he did not think the current strain of populism — the one he

sees as rooted in fear — would last.

“I assure you this is a temporary state of affairs, the American people will not sustain this attitude for long, I promise you,” Biden said. “In moments like this, it is more important than ever that we get back to basics, that we hold fast to what has always made America great and unique.”

“You cannot define an American based on ethnicity, religion, race.

America is an idea, that’s the uniqueness of who we are and it’s embodied in

what we say we believe, even when we haven’t lived up to our ideals,” he added.

Beyond his condemnations of the current administration, Biden urged the graduating class not to “disengage” from politics.

“Don’t fool yourself into thinking that disengaging from the system that you believe is broken is going to hold you harmless from its failures,” he said. “What happens in your country, your community, your neighborhood affects you.”

Gregg Allman, a founding member of the Allman Brothers Band who overcame family tragedy, drug addiction and health problems to become a grizzled Gregg elder statesAllman man for the blues music he loved, has died. He was 69.

Allman died due to liver cancer complications at his home in Savannah, and he was “surrounded by his family and friends,” Michael Lehman, Allman’s longtime manager and close friend, told CNN. He will be buried at Rose Hill cemetery in Macon, though a funeral date has not yet been set, Lehman said.

According to a statement posted to his official website, Allman had struggled with many health issues over the past several years.

Cher, to whom Allman was briefly married in the 1970s, reacted on Twitter Saturday afternoon.

“I’ve tried … words are impossible,” she wrote.

Allman — along with older brother Duane Allman and a handful of other musicians including guitarist Dickey Betts and drummer Butch Trucks — helped form the eponymous Southern band whose blend of rock, blues, country and jazz made them one of the biggest and most influential touring acts of the 1970s.

Gregg Allman played the Hammond organ, sang lead vocals and wrote some of the band’s signature songs, including “Midnight Rider” and “Wasted Words,” the ballad “Melissa” and the blues epic “Whipping Post.”

He and Betts took over leadership of the band after Duane was killed in a motorcycle accident in 1971 and before the band broke up for the first time in the late ’70s.

Prince Harry hosts Obama at Kensington Palace

Prince Harry welcomed Barack Obama at Kensington Palace in London on Saturday during the former president’s latest stop in Europe.

“They discussed a range of shared interests including support for veterans, mental health, conservation, empowering young people and the work of their respective foundations,” Kensington Palace said in a statement.

They also talked about the terrorist attack in Manchester, with Obama offering condolences to the victims and support for those recovering from injuries, the statement said.

The terrorist bombing in Manchester on Monday night killed 22 people and injured dozens after a concert featuring American singer Ariana Grande.

Before his London visit, Obama played golf in Scotland and stopped in Berlin, where he delivered a poignant message to Manchester alongside German Chancellor Angela Merkel and Archbishop of Canterbury Justin Welby.

South Carolina men charged for forcing alligator to drink beer

By Andreas Preuss CNN

Two South Carolina men each face a harassment charge after pictures surfaced on social media showing them pouring beer down the throat of an alligator, authorities said.

Joseph Andrew Floyd Jr., 20, and Zachary Lloyd Brown, 21, both of Ridgeland, are accused of harassing wildlife, the state’s Department of Natural Resourc-

Must read es said in a news release.

The incident took place on Wednesday in Jasper County, located in the coastal region in the southernmost part of the state.

The men admitted to investigators that they picked up the juvenile alligator after they saw it crossing a road, forced beer down its throat and watched it

swim away in a nearby pond, according to the release.

Pictures posted on social media alerted officials the next day.

“We started receiving a lot of emails and phone calls about this. People had taken screen shots from Snapchat accounts,” the agency’s spokeswoman Kyndel McConchie told CNN. In one of the six photos obtained by CNN from authorities, the alligator’s neck is being squeezed and a beer can

is pressed against its snout. The text on the photo says “Gator Shotgun.”

Other photos show beer being dripped into its mouth while its neck is held tightly. Another picture shows smoke being blown onto the face of the gator.

Besides the state misdemeanor charge of harassing wildlife, Floyd and Brown also face a maximum fine of $300.

There is federal protection in place to ensure alligators are le-

gally harvested for international trade. But for a case like this, no federal protection applies, the Department of Natural Resources said.

“Alligators are protected under state law and even federal law where they are still listed as threatened solely due to their similarity of appearance to other endangered crocodilians worldwide,” SCDNR Alligator Program Coordinator Jay Butfiloski added.

Exploring medical marijuana DEAR DR. ROACH: What advice do you have for both doctors and patients for approaching medical marijuana use?

What is your ideal vision of its future?

— C.C. ANSWER: I look at marijuana as a potentially useful medicinal plant that has several potential downsides. One of the downsides is an unrealistic expectation of its usefulness by believers. I increasingly see claims that marijuana (or one of its extracts) can treat or cure almost every known disease. It also is hampered by its status as a Schedule I drug by the Drug Enforcement Agency, so high-quality research is difficult to do.

Finally, it has been used for many years as a recreational drug (which is partially responsible for the first two downsides).

This has led to resistance to the idea among nonbelievers that it might have legitimate use. The psychological effects for which it is used recreationally can cause it to be intolerable for some.

Further, a small percentage of people (estimates range between 2 percent and 6 percent) have difficulty quitting the drug, even when they want to.

Marijuana contains many potentially active chemicals, of which only two (THC and cannabidiol) have been studied well. The best evidence of effectiveness for any type of marijuana product is in epilepsy and chronic pain, but the quality of the data is limited. There are very few situations where I would consider prescribing medical marijuana, but they do exist.

Most of the risks of medical marijuana are also unknown. Anecdotal reports suggest that fewer users of medical marijuana are smoking it, in favor of ingesting extracts. I suspect that this will lead to lower risk of heart and lung problems, but I withhold judgment until there are good data. It also is clear that marijuana can cause or worsen anxiety in some people. Adolescents who use marijuana may be at higher risk of schizophrenia.

My ideal future regarding medical marijuana is one where it is studied openly and subjected to the same scrutiny as other medicines, where both the purified extracts are studied as well as the whole plant. Marijuana needs to be compared against the best treatments we have, not just against placebo. Only this way can we confirm or refute the benefits and risks of this drug.

Dr. Roach regrets that he is unable to answer individual letters, but will incorporate them in the column whenever possible.

Woman should leave troubled relationship DEAR Amy: My boyfriend and I have been together for two years.

He has a beautiful daughter whom I have a great relationship with.

He and I are 12 years apart, and at times I second guess his maturity.

He moved in with me about eight months ago.

I know he loves me and I love him dearly. However, his temper can really make me second guess everything too easily.

He likes to go out with friends about three times a week. When he comes home, I tend to get very nervous and begin questioning what I might have done wrong to get him upset.

It can be anything from not blow-drying my hair, to leaving a piece of his mail on his side of the bed.

I understand some men like their women to do things for them and I want to do things for him. But that piece of mail turns into a pile of garbage in his eyes, because it starts an argument of why I am so lazy. He claims I don’t do anything for him or think of anyone but myself.

Then he begins to express that’s why I’m so overweight and he body shames me in every way a man can.

I will take the bait occasionally and speak up for myself, but his anger takes over and he’s never wrong. Other times I sim-

Ask Amy

Amy Dickinson ply stay quiet and he goes on and on.

I love this man and I try so hard to sleep these things off. But I find myself becoming an angry person being around him while he’s upset.

I know I’m not naturally an angry person, so there has to be something we can do to keep this from happening all the time.

Can you help me with this?

— Hurting DEAR HuRtiNg: What you call possible immaturity, I call abusive.

The behavior you report — going out by himself several times a week, returning home and putting you down, boxing you in so that you are constantly worried about tiny “infractions” — these are all alarming actions of a relationship that is imbalanced and abusive.

There is nothing you can do to change this dynamic unless your partner commits to change, and the guy you describe in your question does not sound inclined to change.

He holds the power, and he will not readily relinquish it.

The best path for you is the path that leads you out of this unhealthy relationship. It’s time to ask him to leave your home.

If you need more encouragement, please seek out family and friends who can help you to look at this risky relationship in an objective way. Don’t let this person isolate you.

DEAR Amy: “Wondering” posed a question about how to talk about her ex-husband to her young children. I agreed with your advice to be very careful.

I was divorced with two daughters. I had the ex-husband from hell.

However, I had a rule.

No one, absolutely no one, could say anything negative about him in my children’s presence, not my parents, not my family, not my friends.

When he tried to agitate me, I would smile and walk away. If I received a harassing phone call from him, I would listen, thank him for his opinion and politely hang up.

It was very difficult to do, but I would not allow myself to get drawn into a battle where only my children would suffer.

When my children got older and started asking questions about his behavior I would say: “It’s OK to love your dad. You

don’t have to like what he does, or his values, or the things he stands for. But, it’s OK to love him.”

— Been There DEAR BEEN tHERE: Thank you for promoting this very compassionate and wise reaction to a very tough situation.

DEAR Amy: I’m writing in response to a comment from a person who works in HR who said that HR’s role is to protect the company, not the employee.

I’ve been in HR for nearly 25 years. I realize that writer’s viewpoint is a common one, but HR folks who take their roles seriously and thoughtfully see it as a dual advocacy role.

Yes, part of our jobs is to keep the company out of court, but if you’re doing it right, with the right motivation, you are also an advocate for doing right by the employees. In ethical companies, those are not mutually exclusive concepts.

— HR from Both Sides DEAR BOtH SiDES: Point taken. Thank you.

Local set to compete in Scripps National Spelling Bee

By Keith Farner

keith.farner @gwinnettdailypost.com

Gwinnettians and Georgians will have reason to root for Speller No. 216 at the upcoming Scripps National Spelling Bee. Abhiram Kapaganty, who goes by Abhi, who just finished fifth grade at Burnette Elementary, will represent the Georgia Association of Educators at the Scripps National Spelling Bee Championships from today through Saturday in National Harbor, Md., near Washington.

Coverage begins Wednesday on ESPN, will receive $40,000, a ESPN 2 and ESPN 3. $2,500 U.S. savings bond, The national winner complete reference library

from Merriam-Webster and $400 of reference works from Encyclopedia

Britannica and a three-year membership to Britannica Online Premium. They also receive a trip to New York to appear on “LIVE with Kelly and Ryan,” and a trip to Hollywood to appear on ABC’s “Jimmy Kimmel Live!”

The spellers who make it from rounds four through six and up to second place receive amounts that range from $500 to $30,000.

In March, Abhi won the 56th annual Georgia Association of Educators State Spelling Bee after 23 rounds by spelling such words as “schipperke” — a small Belgian breed of dog — and eventually won with “wedel” — pro-

nounced with a “v” sound — a skiing term.

He received an allexpenses-paid trip to the national championships, $1,000, an iPad mini, a $100 Amazon gift card, a Kindle, a Merriam-Webster dictionary, a one-year online subscription to Encyclopedia Britannica and a $100 U.S. savings bond.

Earlier this month, he was honored by the Gwinnett County Board of Education at its monthly meeting.

Abhi and eighth-grader Charles Li of Evans are the only spellers from Georgia.

Abhi said his mother reminded him that it’s a special opportunity to sim-

ply make it to the national event because 650,000 kids start off trying to get there.

This spring, Abhi, who is soft-spoken, has received several honors and celebrity status around his Suwanee school.

His fifth-grade teacher, Maria Upchurch, called it an incredible honor.

“The spelling bee’s something people talk about forever,” she said.

“I said, ‘You’re going to be grownups and you’re going to say, ‘I remember in fifth grade, we had the state spelling bee winner.’ To us, it’s like a state championship. Elementary schools don’t get that, so it’s a big deal for us.”

On Friday, Fire investigators arrested one of two men accused of stealing a Jeep from a local gas station before setting it on fire in a Suwanee neighborhood in April.

Officials booked Lawrenceville resident Ricardo Cole, 20, into Gwinnett County jail Thursday at 4:48 p.m., according to the jail log.

He bonded out at 11:30 p.m. that same night.

Cole is accused of acting with another man to steal the Jeep Grand Cherokee, which was left running in the parking lot of the QuikTrip off Beaver Ruin Road on April 6 at about 6:30 a.m.

“Video surveillance obtained by the Gwinnett Fire investigators and Norcross Police detectives shows the two suspects loitering outside the store, then driving off in the stolen vehicle,” Gwinnett Fire Capt. Rutledge said at the time.

Then, at 8:43 a.m., Gwinnett County police officers arrived at Walnut Grove Way and Taylor Road where a witness saw two men standing next to a car with a flaming rag stuck in the gas tank.

“Officers found the vehicle on fire in the roadway and requested a fire truck to respond,” Rutledge said. “The officers quickly doused the flames with a portable

extinguisher from the patrol car.

Police then ran the car’s tags through the state and national crime information database.

“The vehicle came back as stolen and was impounded and processed by crime scene technicians with the Norcross Police Department,” Rutledge said.

Through surveillance video and other information, Rutledge said fire investigators were able to identify Cole. He’s facing charges of seconddegree arson, theft of a motor vehicle, posses-

sion of the tools for the commission of a crime and driving without a license.

The second suspect who reportedly worked with Cole hasn’t been identified. Anybody with information about his whereabouts or the case should call Gwinnett County Fire Investigations Section at 678518-4890 or the Georgia Arson Control Hotline at 1-800-282-5804.

Georgia Arson Control could reward up to $10,000 for information leading to an arrest and conviction in the case.

AG Carr discusses priorities with Gwinnett Bar

By Curt Yeomans

curt.yeomans @gwinnettdailypost.com

Human trafficking.

Substance abuse. Drug rehabilitation. Elder abuse.

These are all issues that Georgia Attorney General Chris Carr told the Gwinnett Bar Association must be addressed by the state in the months and years to come. Georgia’s top prosecutor outlined the threats they pose as he addressed Gwinnett County attorneys and judges from around the county at the 1818 Club in Duluth on Friday.

Carr was the guest speaker at a meeting of the association’s meeting. The first part of his presentation was spent outlining the various services offered by Attorney General’s Office before he shifted the focus to issues that his office feel must be addressed by state government and criminal justice officials.

“One of the things I have found out is this: Most Georgians know there is an attorney general and we have an office,” Carr said. “Beyond that, they’re a little bit unclear about what we do, and that’s because each state does it a little differently, so what I’d like to do is reintroduce you, the Gwinnett Bar, to the Department of Law and then talk about a couple of initiatives that we are working on.”

Although Carr has worked with Gwinnett County leaders in the past, when he was the state’s economic develop-

ment commissioner, his visit on Friday was in his newer role as attorney general. He was appointed to the position by Gov. Nathan Deal last October after the office’s previous occupant, Sam Olens, was appointed as Kennesaw State University’s president.

While Carr didn’t bring it up, his appearance in Gwinnett came as he prepares to go up for election to a full, fouryear term next year. State Rep. Chuck Efstration, who presided over his last meeting as the bar association’s president on Friday, said the attorney general came to Duluth at the invitation of the association’s board, though.

“We’re very appreciative for Attorney General Carr’s leadership,” Efstration said. “He gave a great outline of the work

his office does every day for the people of Georgia.”

Carr discussed his office’s employees, including lawyers, investigators, auditors and special assistant attorney generals. The attorney general’s office represents the executive office and state agencies, boards and authorities, and its employees work with regulated industries, criminal justice, general litigation, commercial transactions, capital litigation, civil rights, ethics, elections, special prosecutions and Medicaid fraud.

Two of the issues, human trafficking and substance abuse, are topics that have been on the minds of local officials.

In recent years, there has been a push, for example, that State Rep. Chuck Efstration and

Sen. Renee Unterman have been involved in, to address the issue of human trafficking. Carr pointed to one result of that work, a bill passed this year to strengthen penalties for customers of prostitutes.

“Some statistics will tell you there are 2.5 million children (globally) who are victims,” Carr said. “There’s 100,000 nationwide. This is not an issue that’s out there somewhere else. This is in our community.”

On the topic of substance abuse, Carr’s comments came as local officials, led by Unterman and Gwinnett County Superior Court Judge Kathryn Schrader, work on coming together to find solutions to substance abuse and mental health issues.

Schrader, in fact, was

presented with the bar association’s Judge of the Month award earlier in its meeting on Friday for her work with the Gwinnett Connects effort that is designed to address those issues.

Carr pointed out that substances abuse issues are growing in Georgia, although he said whether the issue is prescription drug or opioid abuse depends on where in the state a person is. The overdose rates in 55 Georgia counties, he said, are now higher than the national average, however.

“In Gwinnett County over the past several years, there have been 2,500 overdoses,” Carr said. “The way we’ve got to tackle it, as it’s been mentioned many, many times, there are those that we’ve got to prosecute.

If you over prescribe and you know it, you’ve got to be prosecuted.

If you’re putting cheap heroin on the streets, you need to be prosecuted.”

Carr said rehabilitation and better education about the dangers of substance abuse, including through the youth-centric, peer-to-peer-based “We’re Not Going to Take It” campaign started under former Attorney General Sam Olens, also have be to part of the solution.

Elder abuse is another area that has had local support. Efstration sponsored the Uniform Power of Attorney Act this past legislative session to protect elderly residents from financial abuse by people who have power of attorney. The General Assembly passed the bill and Gov. Nathan Deal signed into law earlier this month. It goes into effect on July 1.

Carr said 90 percent of cases where an elderly person has been abused or exploited financially are committed by relatives of the victim.

“We recently worked with the Cherokee County DA’s office, there was a guy who took about $90,000 from his adoptive father, a former postal worker, put it into his company (and) bought a BMW along the way,” Carr said. “That’s just not right and we’re going to make sure we prosecute those who do just that.”

The Attorney General’s Office is currently working on a guide to protecting elderly residents from abuse and exploitation.

Leadership Gwinnett welcomed 40 community leaders into the ranks of the program’s graduates earlier this month, the group announced on Friday.

The recently completed nine-month leadership development and community service program had the participants learn how to be better leaders in the county. The participants also donated nearly $10,000 for the Leadership Gwinnett Scholarship Fund that was raised through a campaign that they put together.

“Leadership Gwinnett aims to be transformative,” Leadership Gwinnett participant and Georgia Gwinnett College Director of Academic Assessment Tom Lilly said in a statement. “It certainly has changed me.

“Even more than the exposure to and the understanding of the many issues affecting Gwinnett County, I found so valuable the connectedness it built between me and a

Pedestrian struck by two Key to having healthy plants vehicles killed in Norcross is practicing proper watering

BY KEITH FARNER

keith.farner @gwinnettdailypost.com

A man who was hit by two vehicles in Norcross was killed early Saturday morning on Peachtree Industrial Boulevard on the bridge crossing over Jimmy Carter Boulevard.

Gwinnett County Police Detective David Smith said the incident happened at about 4:30 a.m., and the man had died before police arrived after he was struck in the middle lane of Peachtree Industrial Boulevard by an SUV. He was struck again by a sanitation

truck.

His identity is known, but police are withholding it pending notification of family.

“The reason for the male’s presence on the bridge was unknown, or why he was in the middle lane, possibly trying to cross over,” Smith said.

Managing Expectations

Although we have received adequate amounts of rainfall in recent months, the threat of another drought looms.

Last year our area went almost three months without measurable rain.

Many plants suffered, and the damage can still be observed with many particular coniferous plants such as Leyland cypress, arborvitae, and cryptomerias.

The key to keeping them healthy is to apply supplemental water correctly and at the right time. Many established ornamental plants can go extended periods without water. More plants die from overwatering than lack of it, even during droughts. For example, junipers can tolerate prolonged dry spells, but they will perish if over watered or if planted in poorly drained soil.

Plants should receive supplemental water at the first signs of moisture stress, which include wilting and developing a pale gray to green coloration. Lawn areas need water if can you walk across the grass and your footprints are visible.

Excessive soil moisture also produces similar symptoms, such as wilting, causing people to apply more water, which increases the severity of the problem. Soils that

Gardening in Gwinnett

Tim Daly stay too wet have reduced oxygen levels which cause the roots to suffocate in addition to promoting the development of root rot diseases.

To determine if water is needed, use a small shovel to dig a few inches near the root zone. If the soil feels dry and powdery, then an application of water is needed.

Well-watered soil will stick together when it is pressed into a ball. The soil should be kept evenly moist, not too dry or too wet.

Often the water only penetrates the top of inches of the soil and does not penetrate deeply into the root zone as a result of applying only enough water to wet the upper layers of the soil.

The roots tend to be weak and shallow, and that increases the plant’s susceptibility to environmental stresses, insect and disease problems.

Water thoroughly and long enough to allow it

to penetrate deeply into the soil to encourage the development of a deep, extensive root system.

Use organic mulches, such as pine straw or pine bark, on the surface of the soil to reduce the loss of water through evaporation.

Make sure the water is reaching the intended plant material. Much of the water applied to landscapes is not absorbed by plants and is lost to evaporation or runoff. On lawns, adjust the sprinklers, so they are irrigating the grass, not the pavement. Lawns require roughly one inch of water per week. Place a rain gauge outside to measure the amount of water that the sprinklers are emitting.

For trees and shrubs, apply water slowly by hand or use a soaker hose instead of sprinklers to direct the water to the base of the plant. Irrigate before noon to reduce the water that is lost through evaporation during the heat of the day and will allow the leaves to dry out before nightfall, which will prevent the development of diseases.

With the threat of another drought combined with the possibility of water restrictions, applying water correctly and efficiently will help improve the likelihood of keeping plants in the landscape healthy. It will also contribute to conserving water which is critical during periods of limited rainfall.

U.K. reduces terror threat level to ‘severe’ following attack

BY LAURA SMITH-SPARK CNN

Britain’s terror threat level has been reduced to “severe” from “critical,” UK Prime Minister Theresa May said Saturday after meeting with security chiefs.

“The public should be clear about what this means. A threat level of ‘severe’ means an attack is highly likely — the country should remain vigilant,”

May said.

The decision to lower the threat rating from its highest level was made by the country’s Joint Terrorism Analysis Centre in light of the arrests made in the Manchester attack investigation, May said. The level had been raised to “critical” after Monday’s deadly bombing.

Investigators are continuing efforts to try to contain the network they believe is behind the suicide attack by

Salman Abedi, 22, a British national of Libyan descent who targeted crowds at an Ariana Grande show.

Investigators have identified the location where they believe the Manchester Arena explosive device was assembled, according to a statement from Greater Manchester Police late Saturday.

Police also released two still images of Abedi, taken from CCTV, on Monday evening, the night of the

attack.

“We know one of the last places Abedi went was a city center flat and from there he left to make his way to the Manchester Arena,” police said. “The flat is highly relevant as a location which we believe may be the final assembly place for the device.”

Armed police are patrolling events in Manchester, London and elsewhere this weekend as Britain marks its first holiday since the

bombing. But the deployment of soldiers on the streets in support of police will be phased out starting Monday night, May said.

In Manchester, events planned around the spring bank holiday will go ahead with additional security, including a significant number of armed officers, police said. British officers do not usually carry guns.

These include the Manchester Games, the Great Manchester Run, and a sta-

dium show by bands including The Courteeners, all of which are likely to attract big crowds. This weekend also marks the start of Ramadan, the holiest month of the Muslim calendar.

“The change in the national threat level from ‘critical’ to ‘severe’ does not alter our response to Monday’s horrific attack, which claimed so many innocent lives,” Greater Manchester Police Chief Constable Ian Hopkins said.

Netherworld Haunted House is going to be in two places this year as it offers one last fright at its long-time Norcross home while also beginning to

roll out activities at its new home near Stone Mountain.

The popular haunted house is set to move to a new location just inside Gwinnett County, by the old Olympic Tennis Center. Its owners announced on Wednesday, however,

that they will do one final season at their current location in Norcross this fall before they pack up the ghouls and goblins and head southeast.

At the same time, Netherworld’s owners will roll out their new Escape Games offering at the

Stone Mountain location in the later half of this summer.

“We’re excited to be opening the Escape Games this summer in Stone Mountain, but we’re equally focused on and excited about Netherworld opening this

September for one last season in the place we’ve called ‘home’ for two decades,” Netherworld coowner Billy Messina said in a statement. “We’re working really hard to make this final season in Norcross our most epic to date.”

Netherworld’s final fall season in Norcross will begin Sept. 22 and continue through Nov. 5, and its owners are going to roll out some new attractions to make it extra special. One of the

“Netherworld is a world-class haunted attraction. They are powerful marketers who have had an incredible economic impact in Gwinnett.” Partnership Gwinnett Chief Economic Development Officer Nick Masino said in a statement. “After 20 years, their name and Gwinnett County have become synonymous, and we knew it was important to keep them here. We are thrilled that this has been accomplished.”

The move is more of a transition for Netherworld than just changing addresses, though. It’s also a transition in the sense that Netherworld is expanding from a seasonal Halloween-centric business to a year-round business.

When the owners asked county leaders to rezone their new location to let them operate there, they said they planned to use it as a wedding and event venue and a setting for filming, on top of the annual haunted house.

Hudgens endorses Shafer’s bid to be lieutenant governor Political Notebook

Curt Yeomans One statewide elected official has come out in support of State Sen. David Shafer’s bid to be the next lieutenant governor.

Insurance Commissioner Ralph Hudgens endorsed Shafer, R-Duluth, for the post last week, following on the heels of philanthropist Bernie Marcus’ endorsement of the longtime legislator. Hudgens highlighted the fact that he and his wife are longtime friends of Shafer, who is the Senate president pro tempore, in a statement announcing his endorsement.

“Suzanne and I have known David Shafer for nearly 30 years,” Hudgens said. “He is a man of great integrity who helped build our Republican party and advance conservative ideals in the state senate. I am proud to endorse him for lieutenant governor. We are happy that he is in the race and will be be actively campaigning for his election in 2018.”

Shafer said, “Ralph and Suzanne Hudgens are great friends and I am proud to have their support.”

The lieutenant governor’s race is wide open next year with current Lt. Gov. Casey Cagle’s decision to run for governor. In light of Cagle’s decision to seek higher office, several legislators,

Why peace in Middle East must begin in Saudi Arabia

“Whom the gods would destroy, they first tempt to resolve the Arab-Israeli conflict.”

— Irving Kristol WASHINGTON — The quixotic American pursuit of Middle East peace is a perennial. It invariably fails, yet every administration feels compelled to give it a try. The Trump administration is no different.

It will fail as well. To be sure, no great harm has, as yet, come from President Trump’s enthusiasm for what would be “the ultimate deal.” It will, however, distract and detract from remarkable progress being made elsewhere in the Middle East.

That progress began with Trump’s trip to Saudi Arabia, the first of his presidency — an unmistakable declaration of a radical reorientation of U.S. policy in the region. Message: The appeasement of Iran is over.

Barack Obama’s tilt toward Iran in the great Muslim civil war between Shiite Iran and Sunni Arabs led by Saudi Arabia was his reach for Nixon-to-China glory. It ended ignominiously.

The idea that the nuclear deal would make Iran more moderate has Charles proved spectacularly Krauthammer wrong, as demonstrated by its defiant ballistic missile launches, its indispensable support for the genocidal Assad regime in Syria, its backing of the Houthi insurgency in Yemen, its worldwide support for terrorism, its relentless anti-Americanism and commitment to the annihilation of Israel.

These aggressions were supposed to abate. They didn’t. On the contrary, the cash payments and the lifting of economic sanctions — Tehran’s reward for the nuclear deal — have only given its geopolitical thrusts more power and reach.

The reversal has now begun. The first act was Trump’s Riyadh address to about 50 Muslim states (the overwhelming majority of them Sunni) signaling a wide Islamic alliance committed to resisting Iran and willing to cast its lot with the American side.

That was objective No.1. The other was to turn the Sunni powers against Sunni terrorism. The Islamic State is Sunni. Al-Qaeda is Sunni. Fifteen of the 9/11 hijackers were Saudi. And the spread of Saudifunded madrassas around the world has for decades inculcated a poisonous Wahhabism that has fueled Islamist terrorism.

Saudi Arabia and the other Gulf states publicly declaring war on their bastard terrorist child is significant. As is their pledge not to tolerate any semiofficial support or private donations. And their opening during the summit of an anti-terrorism center in Riyadh.

After eight years of U.S. policy hovering between neglect and betrayal, the Sunni Arabs are relieved to have America back. A salutary side effect is the possibility of a detente with Israel.

That would suggest an outside-in approach to Arab-Israeli peace: a rapprochement between the Sunni state and Israel (the outside) would put pressure on the Palestinians to come to terms (the inside). It’s a long-shot strategy but it’s better than all the others.

Unfortunately, Trump muddied the waters a bit in Israel by at times reverting to the opposite strategy — the inside-out — by saying that an Israeli-Palestinian deal would “begin a process of peace all throughout the Middle East.”

That is well-worn nonsense. Imagine if Israel disappeared tomorrow in an earthquake. Does that end the civil war in Syria? The instability in Iraq?

The fighting in Yemen? Does it change anything of consequence amid the intra-Arab chaos? Of course not.

And apart from being delusional, the inside-out strategy is at present impossible. Palestinian leadership is both hopelessly weak and irredeemably rejectionist. Until it is prepared to accept the legitimacy of the Jewish state — which it has never done in the 100 years since the Balfour Declaration committed Britain to a Jewish homeland in Palestine — there will be no peace.

It may come one day. But not now. Which is why making the Israel-Palestinian issue central, rather than peripheral, to the epic Sunni-Shiite war shaking the Middle East today is a serious tactical mistake.

It subjects any now-possible reconciliation between Israel and the Arab states to a Palestinian veto.

Ironically, the Iranian threat that grew under Obama offers a unique opportunity for U.S.-Arab and even Israeli-Arab cooperation. Over time, such cooperation could gradually acclimate Arab peoples to a nonbelligerent stance toward Israel. Which might in turn help persuade the Palestinians to make some concessions before their fellow Arabs finally tire of the Palestinians’ century of rejectionism.

Perhaps that will require a peace process of sorts.

No great harm, as long as we remember that any such Israeli-Palestinian talks are for show — until conditions are one day ripe for peace.

In the meantime, the real action is on the antiIranian and anti-terror fronts. Don’t let Oslo-like mirages get in the way.

A day that was as good as it gets Sometimes things come together better than peanut butter and jelly. Take last week, for example. I was invited to speak at the 20th annual Awards for Excellence in Law Enforcement, sponsored by the Gainesville Kiwanis Club and saluting members of the law enforcement community in the city and in Hall County. This event had a lot going for it.

For one thing, I have a warm spot in my heart for Gainesville, going back to the 1996 Centennial Olympic Games. As a member of the Atlanta Committee for the Olympic Games, I remember cities across the state begged, cajoled and sometimes threatened us for the opportunity to host an Olympic venue. If they were successful, you would have thought we had suddenly brought a plague of locusts upon them.

Local officials immediately began whining about the traffic problems the venue would cause them, security concerns, the inconvenience to the locals and — oh, yeah — the need for us to pay for everything. Gainesville and Hall County were the notable exceptions.

Lake Lanier was the venue selected for Olympic rowing, canoeing and kayaking.

There was no whining. No complaining. No hands out for more money. The local leadership went about their

Each honoree’s supervisor spoke about how their department had selected the recipient and why. And then the honoree said a few words in response. By the time they had finished, there wasn’t much left for me to say.

They had said it all. They Dick talked about their faith, their Yarbrough families, their coworkers, the satisfaction they get from work staging the events, and doing their job and helping it was a huge success.

all over Georgia.

There is another reason Gainesville is special to me.

It is where my brother lives.

Unlike his younger brother, Bob Yarbrough is the quiet and thoughtful branch of the family. After a successful business career, retiring as president of a publishing company in Chicago, Bob moved to Gainesville to be near his two daughters and their spouses, one of whom is Lee Darragh, the district attorney in Hall County.

These days, the former businessman spends his time volunteering at the local hospital and at his church.

That’s just the kind of person he is.

So here I am in a town for which I have a particular fondness because they walked their talk when it came to the 1996 Olympic Games. I’m watching community leaders showing appreciation for the hard work and dedication of their local law enforcement agencies.

And if that wasn’t enough, there sits a guy in the front row watching a kid brother whose shoes he used to have to tie. A day just doesn’t get any better than that.

Honoring those who made the ultimate sacrifice The women and men in the United States military truly represent the very best of our country, and on Memorial Day, we honor those who gave their lives in service to protect our rights and freedoms as Americans.

We are also reminded of the charge we have every single day to serve our veterans and their families and to preserve the memories of their heroism.

Perhaps no other military distinction exemplifies this sacrifice more than the Purple Heart, which is awarded to Armed Services members who are wounded or killed while defending our country.

Unfortunately, many Purple Hearts have been lost, stolen or discarded, and a second-hand market has developed. While not all Purple Hearts are awarded posthumously, perhaps one of the most disturbing features of this market is that Purple Hearts engraved with the name of a service member who was killed in action are often sold at the highest

Fike himself was awarded a Purple Heart in 2010. Both he and Piccoli answered their country’s call. Their courage and sacrifice – and the sacrifices of all of our veterans and their families – must never be far from our hearts.

As a member of the Senate Armed Services Committee, I’m committed to doing all I can to ensure that today’s troops have what they need, that the promises made to veterans and their families are kept and that the legacy of those who paid the ultimate price is never forgotten.

The freedom and liberty we are all blessed with today has come with great loss. On Memorial Day we remember those who gave all. Every single day is an opportunity to honor those who have given so much for us.

Millhof transfer a boost to improving Sun Devils

By Shawn Moran Staff Correspondent

TEMPE, Ariz. — It has been almost 30 years since the Arizona State Sun Devils have won a wrestling national championship.

They also have not had an individual champion since 2011, which was the last time they finished in the top 10 as a team. But after years of mediocrity, the mood around Tempe is changing following an imOklahoma’s Ryan Millhof, a Collins Hill grad, has quali- pressive finish last season fied for the NCAA Division I Wrestling Championships. and the addition of an AllAmerican transfer from the (Special photo)

“

I think the coaches are going to build a dynasty out here.”

— Collins Hill grad and All-American Ryan Millhof

Oklahoma Sooners.

Collins Hill graduate Ryan Millhof has been described as a strategic wrestler who has a relentless work ethic. His skills have prompted some to call him the best wrestler they have ever seen and

hint that there is a dynasty starting in the desert.

After two years in Norman, in which he developed into an All-American, Millhof plans to stand atop the podium at the end of this year as a Sun Devil.

One person who knows about standing on top of the podium is Mike Davies. Davies was captain of the 1988 national champion Sun Devil wrestling team and now serves as a consultant to head coach Zeke Jones. He believes Millhof will bring experience and leadership into

the locker room.

“He fits in very well as a Sun Devil. It was meant to be,” Davies said.

After visiting three different schools to decide where to transfer, Millhof had a similar feeling as Davies.

“I came out here on my visit, and the big thing that I noticed is that everyone is like a unit,” said Millhof, who became Gwinnett’s first NCAA Division I-A All-American in 2016, his final season at Oklahoma,

Knights hire McLean as new boys soccer coach

By Collin Huguley Staff Correspondent

There has been a changing of the guard for the boys soccer program at Central Gwinnett High School.

Cory Morgan has resigned his spot as head coach and Mike McLean has been hired to fill his shoes.

Morgan is moving to Pacifica, Calif., with his wife, and will take a hiatus from coaching, in order to spend more time with her and enjoy their life together. But Cory Morgan holds dear the Morgan chance he was given to lead the Central Gwinnett program for four years.

“I am forever grateful for the opportunity that Maryanne Grimes gave me to be the head coach at Central Gwinnett,” Morgan said. “I think people take a lot of things for granted and people look down on Central. But I don’t think they understand what kind of people are really there. I told my kids at Central for four years that I’d take them over anybody.

And I meant it.”

While Morgan will miss his job coaching at Central Gwinnett, he feels that the time is right for he and his wife to make a change in order to enjoy life together.

Morgan will be teaching middle-school physical education in California and looks forward to seeing what life has to See CENTRAL, Page 4B

Wilson named AD at Shiloh

By Will Hammock will.hammock@gwinnettdailypost.com

After building a track and field dynasty and boosting the overall athletic program at his alma mater, Robert Wilson is ready for the next challenge.

Wilson has been named the new athletic and activities director at Shiloh, moving over from Westlake, where he was the athletic director, head track and field coach and head cross country coach. He replaces outgoing Generals athletic director Mike Cammack, who retired after the 2016-17 Robert school year.

Wilson “I love challenges,” Wilson said. “I know Shiloh is similar to Westlake, No. 1, when you look at the community and the type of kids that are there. Just from growing up in the Atlanta area myself, I know that area has a lot of good athletes. I know transfer things are going around, kids going school to school. My goal is keep those athletes that belong at Shiloh at Shiloh. I want to develop that pride in Shiloh.”

Wilson is best known statewide for his work with the Westlake track and See WILSON, Page 4B

VIKING QUEST Buford’s Wehunt twins set to continue their athletic careers together at Berry College

By Paul Thomas

BUFORD — Twins Mackenzie and Dawson Wehunt weren’t planning on attending the same college.

In fact, the recent Buford grads didn’t even discuss their college recruitment all that often with each other.

Mackenzie made her decision last summer to commit to Berry College in Mount Berry to play lacrosse. Then in the spring Dawson, a 6-foot-3 guard, committed to the basketball program.

“I was excited but I didn’t

paul.thomas@gwinnettdailypost.com

want to say too much to him, because I wanted it to feel like his decision and he’s going to school, not we’re going to school together,” Mackenzie said. “So I was excited inside, but I was like, ‘Let’s wait until he makes a decision.’”

Initially Dawson spurned the Vikings’ coaches because of Mackenzie’s commitment.

But the rocking chair isn’t likely to get much use.

Williams is expanding his philanthropic work — which already includes annual mission trips to the Dominican Republic where he distributes used sports equipment. He was at Hebron Baptist this weekend to help with the big barbecue fundraiser.

Harvick on pole for Coca-Cola 600

By Reid Spencer The Sports Xchange

CONCORD, N.C. — After squeaking out the fastest lap in the second round of Thursday night’s knockout qualifying at Charlotte Motor Speedway, Kevin Harvick left no doubt when it counted.

Touring the 1.5-mile track in 27.918 seconds (193.424 mph) to post the fastest lap of the day in the final round, Harvick claimed his first Coors Light Pole Award for the Coca-Cola 600 and his second overall at Charlotte Motor Speedway.

The driver of the No. 4 Stewart-Haas Racing Chevrolet will lead the field to green in NASCAR’s longest race today after beating second-place qualifier Kyle Busch (192.513 mph) by .132 seconds. The pole was Harvick’s third of the season, all having come at 1.5-mile intermediate tracks.

Fourteen of Harvick’s 20 career poles have come since he joined StewartHaas Racing in 2014, the

His No. 42 Chip Ganassi Racing Chevrolet bounced off the wall in Thursday’s opening practice, and repairs to the car impeded its progress through the inspection line.

Time ran out on the No. 42 before Larson could get the car to the grid. As a result, Larson will start 39th in the 40-car field.

Falcons face big battle at right guard Posluszny,

Jack helping each other at new positions

The Sports Xchange FLOWERY BRANCH — When the Atlanta Falcons open their OTAs on Tuesday, all of the attention will shift to the middle of the offensive line.

Center Alex Mack is recovering from a broken fibula and they must also replace right guard Chris Chester, who started 32 games over the past two seasons before electing to retire.

The Falcons are a week behind most other teams because they were cited for excessive contact and had three OTA sessions taken away by the NFL. Stability along the offensive line was the untold story about how the Falcons were able to become NFC champions and reach Super Bowl LI. The Falcons used the same starters in all 18 games last season.

Mack is expected to recover, but it will be an allcomers battle royale to replace Chester.

Rookie Sean Harlow, who was selected in the fourth round of the draft out of Oregon State, started making his case during the team’s rookie minicamp.

The Falcons have little experience among the holdover candidates at right guard, and Harlow will get his chance to show he can handle the job.

The Falcons will get a better handle on Harlow’s ability when they hold full-squad, full-contact practices during training camp. But practicing in shorts with limited contact will allow Harlow to get a taste of the demands placed on linemen in the Falcons’ outside-zone blocking scheme.

The system requires linemen to frequently run hori-

zontally to spread the defense and create cutback creases for backs, thus placing a premium on their conditioning.

“That’s a habit a lot of us need to start learning,” Harlow said. “A lot of us are used to ‘drive-stepping’ and playing with a base. It’s a little different having to run and really just move and go, go, go and cover people up. But I’m excited to learn new techniques and new philosophies and try to earn my spot.”

It’s not a completely new concept for Harlow. Over his final two seasons at Oregon State he played for coach Gary Andersen, who installed a spread-option attack that used zone-blocking techniques.

But the Falcons’ rushing plays were outside zone a vast majority of the time under coordinator Kyle Shanahan the past two seasons and helped

set up an excellent play-action passing game. New coordinator Steve Sarkisian also plans to use those plays as a staple of the offense.

Harlow will compete with Wes Schweitzer and Ben Garland at right guard. They have the advantage of time in the system — Schweitzer was drafted in the seventh round in 2016. Garland was signed from the practice squad in December 2015. But Schweitzer has played zero NFL snaps and Garland played 42 offensive snaps last season.

Harlow moves to guard after he played tackle at Oregon State. His size (6-foot-4, 303 pounds) and athletic ability aren’t ideal for playing tackle in the NFL, but he could be effective inside.

Harlow didn’t stand out during the agility drills at the Combine. But his 40-yard

dash time of 5.15 seconds was eighth-best among offensive linemen, and his 30.5-inch vertical jump tied for third best.

By comparison, Schweitzer reportedly ran the 40 in 5.15 seconds and jumped 27 1/2 inches at the San Jose State pro day in 2016. Garland reportedly posted a time of 5.07 seconds and jumped 35 inches at the Air Force pro day in 2010.

Falcons head coach Dan Quinn said Harlow is a quick study.

“He had very good questions (at the rookie minicamp) as far as (football) IQ goes,” Quinn said. “He was ready to go to the next level on some things (the first) night and (Friday). He was another one that came in with the intent of how hard he could go for it. I was very encouraged by him.”

Vick was out of football for two years and Atlanta moved on without him. Vick was walking around in a jail cell on the day of the 2008 NFL

It took a while for Vick to lose his bitterness over the situation, but he has become a big supporter of Ryan, who was the 2016 league MVP and took the Falcons to this year’s Super Bowl.

Saints uncertain at center, cornerback The Sports Xchange METAIRIE, La. — When the New Orleans Saints opened their third practice of the first week of organized team activities to media Thursday, a lot of attention was focused on two important positions that feature lots of question marks.

Much of the talk during the early part of the offseason concerned the Saints’ porous defense and the club’s desire to beef up a group that ranked last in passing yards allowed a year ago.

Then there was the uncertainty at center. Veteran Max Unger recently underwent Lisfranc surgery, and he faces the possibility of missing the regular-season opener even though coach Sean Payton has said he thinks Unger may be

back by the end of the preseason schedule.

Unger has been nothing but steady and solid since coming to the Saints from the Seattle Seahawks in the Jimmy Graham trade in March 2015.

“Steady and solid” aren’t

accurate descriptions of the secondary — particularly cornerback.

The Saints were ravaged by injuries at the cornerback position last season, with starters Delvin Breaux and P.J. Williams sustaining devastating injuries in Weeks 1 and 2, respectively.

Breaux came back from a broken fibula and played in only five more games before sustaining a season-ending shoulder injury. Williams received a severe concussion in the second game and was shut down for the rest of the season.

With that in mind, the Saints tried to make a run at New England Patriots cornerback Malcolm Butler before using the 11th pick in the draft on Ohio State’s Marshon Lattimore.

Lattimore, who was projected as a top-five or -six

pick going into the draft, will get a shot at a starting job. If Lattimore makes the starting lineup, that probably would leave Williams to fight for the nickel job with Sterling Moore and two undrafted free agents who earned roster spots last summer — Ken Crawley and De’Vante Harris.

The battle started this week with Williams seeing time on the outside opposite Breaux, the Saints’ best cover corner.

When Williams moved inside to the nickel, Crawley took his place, although Lattimore wasn’t drafted that high to sit around.

At center, veteran handyman Senio Kelemete, who has played both guard spots, center and tackle during his four-year career with the Saints, could get the first crack at filling in until Unger returns.

JACKSONVILLE — Paul Posluszny is helping Myles Jack learn a new position. Myles Jack is helping Paul Posluszny learn a new position. And the Jacksonville Jaguars are hoping that will pay dividends in making the Jaguars’ 2017 defense stronger than it was a year ago.

Posluszny has been the Jaguars’ starting middle linebacker for the last six years. He’s been a good one, leading the team in tackles five times, all but the 2014 season when a torn pectoral muscle sent him to injured reserve after just five games that season.

Jack is the second-year player from UCLA who the Jaguars snared in the second round of the 2015 draft, trading up several spots on the second day to assure themselves of selecting Jack. He was considered a possible first-round selection, but teams became apprehensive about the serious knee injury he had in his last season with the Bruins. The Jaguars did their testing of Jack and concluded that he was worth the gamble of a high second-round choice. The knee was no issue at all last year when Jack started 10 games at outside linebacker and would have started four others except that the Jaguars started the game with five defensive backs on the field.

Jack was picked with the notion that he would be groomed to replace Posluszny at the middle linebacker spot.

But with the 10-year veteran playing so well in 2016, the Jaguars could ill afford to bench him in favor of Jack. As a result, Jack was given a crash course as an outside linebacker that somewhat restricted his athleticism to roam the field and make plays.

But this is 2017 and the Jaguars can’t wait any further to insert Jack into the middle to fully take advantage of his talents. That meant either sending Posluszny to the bench or finding another position for him. Welcome to the strongside linebacker spot Posluszny. When the NFL veteran was told he would be moving to the outside, he didn’t complain, but instead called it the biggest challenge of his career. It also meant the Jaguars now had two players at positions where they had never started an NFL game before. Thus the need to help each other.

“I greatly appreciate it because he doesn’t have to do that by any means, but I really appreciate it,” Jack said following one of the team’s OTAs this first week.

“He was straight-up with me. He was like, ‘Let’s do this man. Let’s win. If this is what it takes to win.’ He was all for it.

“It’s a big responsibility, but it’s been fun. It’s really all the responsibility is put on your plate as far as No. 1: getting the defense aligned, the defensive linemen aligned, making the calls, making the checks, talking to the defensive backs.

I mean I’ve definitely had to study a lot more when I go home, take a nap and then get on the film and just get to studying, but it’s been fun.”

Jack didn’t hesitate when asked if he occasionally asked Posluszny for advice.

“It’s not even occasionally; it’s frequently,” he said. “After practice we’ll watch film, we’ll get together and we’ll watch it together. He’s been like an older brother to me, just really taking me under his wing.”

So how has Posluszny taken to the new position? Because of limitations put on players being made available to the media, Posluszny has yet to make an appearance and discuss his new role.

He did however do an interview for the team’s website, Jaguars.com LIVE, this week and had a lot of praise for Jack.

“He looks unbelievable,” Posluszny said. “He’s going to be a great middle linebacker for us. He has done a great job of taking command of the huddle and leading the defense from a communication perspective. We all know physically he has all the gifts. He has all the talents to make the plays on the field.”

Nadal, who retired last year before his third-round match with a wrist injury, has a 72-2 record at the French Open.

“Rafa, next to Roger (Federer), has been the best player this year in terms of results,” Djokovic said.

“Their level of tennis is quite fantastic. Rafa is playing on his favorite surface and playing with confidence, much better than last year. I definitely see him as probably the number one

favorite for this title.”

The 35-year-old Federer, who won the Australian Open in January, announced last week that he is skipping the French Open to focus instead on his preparations for the grass and hard court events.

The 18-time Grand Slam champion, currently ranked No. 5 in the world, has won only one French Open title, which came in 2009.

Since Djokovic completed a career Grand Slam at the French Open last year by beating Andy Murray in the final, the Serb has

experienced a decline.

Djokovic, who lost his No. 1 ranking to Murray last year, has won only one of his last 11 tournaments. The second-ranked Djokovic announced last week tennis legend Andre Agassi will serve as his coach for the French Open.

“It’s an amazing feeling to be back and to look at this trophy. It brings back memories from last year,” Djokovic said Friday at the French Open draw ceremony in Paris. “Winning here was one of the most special feelings on the court, one of

the highlights of my career.”

Djokovic will start the defense of his title against 76th-ranked Marcel Granollers of Spain.

The top-ranked Murray will open against world No. 85 Andrey Kuznetsov of Russia, with Slovakia’s Martin Klizan a likely second-round opponent.

Murray is the same half as third-seeded and 2015 champion Stan Wawrinka and they could meet in the semifinals. Murray also could take on Juan Martin del Potro in a third-round clash.

When he took over in 2006, Westlake had less than 20 track and field athletes and no junior varsity team, but now it averages 90 athletes a season and fields a full JV team and schedule.

Also a basketball player, Wilson’s biggest athletic successes came in track and field. He was a fourtime All-American runner at Southern before running professionally for five years with Adidas after college. He also competed in the U.S. Olympic Trials twice, in 2000 and 2004.

He worked at Liberty Point Elementary School and Paul D. West Elementary School when he entered the education before moving to his alma mater full-time in 2006.

He admitted it wasn’t easy to leave Westlake, a place where the 39-year-old has spent much of his life, but that was only part of it.

“It was tough to leave, not only Westlake being my alma mater, but when you build something, with the help of other people, that track program, that bond with the kids, it’s tough,” Wilson said. “I have kids in my track program that have been waiting to come to the high school program since third or fourth grade. We’re a big family. So it was tough to leave. But I know Shiloh is a good fit for my family.”

Wilson and his wife Marissa have four children, two sets of twins.

He expects to move closer to Shiloh, on the opposite side of Atlanta from Westlake, in the near future.

That won’t be the only change with his new job.

He also won’t be coaching a sport for the first time in more than a decade.

Teammates have said the same of Mackenzie in the past.

“Some people laugh, because they think I have a bigger passion for coaching than playing,” she said. “So that’s what I want to do.”

Even though it was unplanned, they both are glad they’ll get the chance to be there for the other in college.

While McLean is an experienced hand, he values the work that Morgan did for the program and is hungry to live up to the work that his predecessor put it in order to meet the standards of his new job.

“I got to know Coach Morgan and it looked like he took a lot of pride in the program and that he really enjoyed coaching (at Central Gwinnett),” McLean said. “He wants someone to take over that puts the same amount of dedication into it that he did…So when the head coach spot was vacant, I was excited to have the opportunity to get back into it.”

The dedication that McLean refers to was a strong one.

Morgan took great pride in being the head coach

and in the culture of the program. And it is something that Morgan believes contributed greatly to his success.

“When you go somewhere you have to embrace (the culture),” Morgan said. “You have to earn respect. To get respect you have to give it. I love those kids. I love them like they were my sons. I jumped in head first. I fully embraced that culture, everything about it.”

While Morgan and his wife are excited to start a new chapter in their lives in a new place, there are things that they will miss.

Morgan insists that he will coach again in the future. But for now, he’s taking a step away.

And the thing he will miss the most?

“I love competition,” Morgan said. “I love this area (Gwinnett County) for competition. It is awesome.

“I’m going to miss it so much. Anyone who knows me knows how competitive I am. I will miss it without a doubt.”

contributed to the family’s decision to return to Gwinnett in 1997.

It was home for Williams and his wife, born in the Dominican, wanted to get her teaching degree.

“And we wanted our kids to have a an American education,” Williams said.

“Going to a private school there, they were getting a little bit of skewed sense of value.”

His sons were 7 and 9 when they moved back.

Williams was hired at Parkview to teach Spanish, which he learned through acculturation, and coach both varsity golf teams.

“That was the only position open when I move back, honestly,” Williams said. “All the health and P.E. jobs went to coaches.

But that was a perfect fit. I was there in the heyday.”

In 2002, his oldest son was starting high school at Dacula and Williams was hired in the same capacity there.

Williams also coached ninth-grade softball at both schools. He stepped away as a head golf coach a few years ago, but went out as a region champ in softball this season.

“I will miss the coaching more than the teaching just because you get the people who want to be there,” Williams said.

His effort to bring used sports equipment to the D.R. has continued, too.

He started by taking it each summer as extra baggage on the plane. Now he ships boxes of all kinds of gear — baseball, volleyball, soccer, even American football cleats — year round.

“We also take school

supplies to help underprivileged schools and we supply some hospitals with the hospital supplies,” he said. “There are no nursing or retirement homes, but we do help, through our mission team, a place for the elderly who have been abandoned. We take sheets and towels, things like that.

“We’ve done that every summer and now I’ll have more time to do that. I tell everybody, you will receive a greater blessing than anybody that you’re trying to help. When you allow God to work through you, it opens up doors.”

Retirement also is an opportunity to spend more time with his family, including three grandkids and his own parents, who still live on the farm in Dacula.

He’s teaching all three boys, who are 4, 2 and 9 months, Spanish. A hardworking spirit may be ingrained.

“My grandson, I’ll get the broom out, he’ll say, ‘Work, help,’ and I didn’t teach him that,” Williams said with a smile. “He just wants to help. So I’ve taught him how to load the washing machine, sweep, load the bird feeders.”

He has trips to the park and secret fishing holes in mind, too.

“It’s going to be good, yeah,” Williams said. “I enjoy work. It’s hard to pass on the good work ethic, but my mom and dad did.”

Williams is set to leave next week for his annual trip to the Dominican Republic, but donations are accepted any time. Anyone interested in helping can email profewilliams13@ gmail.com.

Williams •From Page 1B As he walked through the tents bordering the drivethrough lane, a handful of teenagers broke out in smiles and calls of “Profe!” for the longtime Gwinnett Spanish teacher. Profe (short for professor) runs into former students regularly — and they’re what made the job fulfilling.

“The greatest reward is to see the kids succeed,” Williams said. “To have them say, I know I was a pain in your class, but now I’m a sharpshooter in the Army. Or one student, who we coached in softball and golf, came by. She got a golf scholarship to Berry College and now she’s finishing nursing school at Emory. She took two years of Spanish and two years of Latin, so she got to use the whole language.

“Find what you enjoy doing and you’ll never work a day in your life.

Teaching is one of the toughest professions there is. It’s also one of the most rewarding.”

Williams sorted through a trove of memories as he cleaned out his classroom, including a picture of the students who took one of the Latin dance classes Williams and his wife, Mercy, taught at Parkview.

“A couple we paired up, they met there and later got married and invited us to their wedding,” Williams said. “We were matchmakers without wanting to be.”

Williams finished his teaching and coaching career at the same school where he started as a “freckle-faced” first-grader in 1962 and sports have always been a part of his life.

In fourth grade, he mowed a baseball field into the pasture at the family farm. Pallets served as backstops. But what did his parents think?

“Eh, it’s better to ask for forgiveness than permission,” Williams said with a sly grin. “No, as long as I mowed the yard, it was OK.” Williams played baseball and football in high school.

His graduating class of 61 students in 1974 was the first to finish at Dacula’s present day location.

A legacy, Williams’ mom also graduated from the school in 1945 and then taught there.

“She was a substitute teacher while she was having six kids, of course,” Williams said. “So those were the best behaved days. When she was there,

we really behaved.”

Williams went on to college at Carson-Newman and was initially an engineering major, but changed it to teaching.

“My mother tried to discourage me from going into teaching,” he said.

“She said they don’t get paid enough and they don’t get the respect they deserve. I said, ‘Mother, let me try.’ Here we are 36 years later. I hope I didn’t try. I hope I did a really good job.”

Williams did his student teaching in the Dominican Republic in 1978 and it had a profound effect on the course of his life.

“I loved it,’ he said.

“When I was on the plane leaving that day in December, I realized, I said ‘you will be back.’ And before I finished graduate school,

they offer me a job.”

Williams returned in 1981 to teach health and physical education. He stayed for 16 years. He met his wife and started a family there. He also saw first-hand how much the kids there wanted to play baseball.

“My wife and I would camp on the weekends and going to the small villages, I would see kids using a cardboard milk carton with a strap for a glove and sticks for bats,” Williams said.

He started bringing those kids the used equipment from his school when it was time to be replaced.

The Williamses also helped build two schools while they lived in the Dominican Republic and both are still in use.

G-Braves win fourth in five Dream send LA to another loss

By Collin Huguley Staff Correspondent

The Gwinnett Braves rode some unusual offense to a victory over the Syracuse Chiefs on Saturday night at Coolray Field.

Andrew Albers gave the Braves a quality start and an odd three-run sixth inning put Gwinnett (25-22) ahead for good as it won its second straight game over the Chiefs (15-29), and its fourth in the last five games, by a 6-4 score.

“Guys are coming out here and playing hard every day but when you win a few close games, that is a good feeling,” Albers said.

“We’ve got a good group here and a group that has been here before and you’re seeing that now.”

Through five innings, offense was at a premium for both teams as Albers (4-1) and Syracuse’s Kyle McGowin (1-3) went to battle on the mound early.

“My fastball command was pretty good,” Albers said. “I got ahead of some guys early and from there we worked off of that. I missed a few curveballs but it came down to fastball command and throwing the cutter off of that.”

However, in the third inning, Gwinnett was able to draw the game’s first blood.

A leadoff double by Ozzie Albies followed by a Johan Camargo single set the Braves up nicely with runners on the corners and no men out.

The next batter was Adonis Garcia, who is on a rehab assignment in Gwinnett. He flew out deep to right field but it was enough to score Albies from third to give the GBraves a 1-0 lead.

Mel Rojas Jr. was hit by a pitch to put two runners on again for Dustin Peterson and the Syracuse defense backed up its pitcher. Peterson grounded one up the middle and a diving stop by Adrian Sanchez set up the flip to second base and the Chiefs turned an inning-ending double play to limit the damage.

Before the Braves could even get comfortable, Syracuse had an answer in the top of the fourth that was kickstarted by a leadoff double as well.

Brandon Snyder, who went 4-for-4 at the plate for the Chiefs, shot one deep into the left-center field gap. Snyder had second base easily but managed to advance to third after Peterson dropped the

ball while attempting to throw it back in to the cutoff man. Two batters later, Clint Robinson singled in Snyder to tie the game at 1-1.

Through five innings, both pitchers gave up just one run each and were dominating the opposing offense. In the sixth inning, though, both teams managed to get some offense going.

In the top of the sixth, the Chiefs started to get to Albers. Another Snyder double to lead off the inning set things up for the next batter, Ryan Raburn.

Raburn lined one into the right field corner and drove in Snyder to give Syracuse a 2-1 lead.

“I thought I threw the ball well today but in that sixth inning, just a few balls fell in,” Albers said.

After a groundout advanced Raburn to third, Pedro Severino flew out to deep center to drive him in for a 3-1 Syracuse lead.

The Gwinnett answer in the bottom of the inning was sparked by a wild sequence of events.

“You feel bad giving up the lead in a close ball game but then when your team picks you up right away, that is a good feeling,” Albers said. “For them to pick me up like that was awesome.”

McGowin hit Peterson with a pitch to start the inning and then chaos ensued when Carlos Franco came to the plate. Franco lined one off of the backside of McGowin and third baseman Grant Green still tried to make the play at first off of the ricochet.

But Green’s throw was wide and Peterson was able to score from first base while Franco advanced to second to make

it 3-2 Syracuse. The next batter was David Freitas.

McGowin threw two wild pitches to Freitas that allowed Franco to score from second base to tie the game.

“It came down to a great at-bat by Franco,” Gwinnett manager Damon Berryhill said. “He smoked that pitcher right in the hip that, maybe, led to those wild pitches. Getting hit in the hip bone is not pleasant.”

Then, after Freitas walked and Xavier Avery singled, Albies singled to center field to score Freitas to give Gwinnett a 4-3 lead and to put Albers in line for the win.

Albers finished with six innings of work and allowed six hits and three runs while striking out five and walking one batter.

The first man out of the bullpen for the GBraves was left-hander Eric O’Flaherty, who is on a rehab assignment in Gwinnett. O’Flaherty set the Syracuse offense down in order on just 10 pitches to notch a hold in his first rehab appearance.

The Braves tacked on another much-needed run off of Chiefs relief pitcher Dustin Antolin in the bottom of the seventh and Garcia was manufacturing his own offense.

The big-league third baseman dribbled one down the third-base line and thinking the ball would go foul, the Chiefs allowed it to keep rolling and it did not. Now with an infield single, Garcia continued to try his luck and swiped second base with a steal.

Then after advancing to third on a groundout, Garcia scored on a Peterson single to make it 5-3 in favor of the home team.

“Adonis has surprised me a bit, coming off of a hamstring injury,” Berryhill said. “I think he just wants to show the (Atlanta) Braves that he is healthy.”

Right-hander Wes Parsons was tasked with pitching the eighth and ran into a little bit of trouble.

Snyder collected his fourth hit of the game with a single but Parsons was able to strike out the next two batters.

But a wild pitch along the way allowed Snyder to advance to second and Severino collected a twoout single to score Snyder and cut the Gwinnett lead to 5-4.

After giving up another single, Parsons forced a Caleb Ramsey flyout to left field to end the threat for Syracuse.

Gwinnett would get that run back in the bottom of the inning. Lane Adams came in to pinch hit and tripled with one out. Two batters later, Camargo doubled to make it 6-4 Gwinnett to set the table for Mauricio Cabrera.

“Our guys came in and swung the bats well tonight,” Berryhill said. “We did a much better job today with runners in scoring position.”

Cabrera tossed a perfect ninth to notch his third save of the year and to seal the win for the Braves, who return on Sunday afternoon for the third of their four games against the Chiefs.

“It turned out to be a good ball game and Cabrera came in during the ninth and was solid with his command,” Berryhill said. “We’re getting good pitching and offensively, we’re swinging the bats well, we just need to clean up our defense a little bit.”

Simpson opens 2-shot lead at Colonial

By Steve Habel

The Sports Xchange

FORT WORTH, Texas — Webb Simpson’s steely eyed performance Saturday during the third round of the Dean & DeLuca Invitational might have looked easy, but don’t be fooled — nothing is given at venerable and unforgiving Colonial Country Club, especially any quarter to the golfers who try to tame this storied track.

Simpson fashioned a 3-under-par 67 in hot, muggy and blustery conditions to finish at 9-under 201 and assume a two-shot lead here on the banks of the Trinity River.

Paul Casey of England and second-round co-leader Danny Lee of New Zealand are tied for second. Casey fired a 68 that included a curving, 23-foot birdie putt on the final hole and Lee followed in the next-to-last group with his own 16-foot birdie to finish off a 69.

Stewart Cink, the 2009 British Open champion, shot a 66 and is tied with second-round co-leader Kevin Kisner, three shots back in a tie for fourth.

Simpson, the 2012

U.S. Open champion who finished second in this event last year and was a co-leader after the second round, managed birdies on Nos. 1, 2, 10 and 11, plus a bogey on the eighth, and made his round look simple despite a heat index that reached 104 degrees.

“The big thing for me is I was hitting it into the fairway,” Simpson said.

“When you start hitting them in the rough you start guessing and you’re dealing with jumpers and dealing with the wind. At least in the fairway you’re in control, and so that’s probably why it looked

easy. It didn’t feel easy.

It’s 100 degrees out there.

We were just trying to stay upright.”

Jon Rahm of Spain forged a scrambling 70 and is tied with Sean O’Hair (70) in sixth, four strokes in arrears.

“I had a lot of up and downs and wasn’t really accurate with the driver on the front nine,” Rahm said.

“I struggled up until No. 9. After that I hit a lot of fairways and I just put myself in position, hit some greens and actually made some putts.

“Obviously Colonial is going to get you if you

don’t put it in position,” Rahm added. “If someone told me ahead of the round that I was going to finish even par I would be really happy with it. I’m still in position and just have positive thoughts for tomorrow.”

Emiliano Grillo of Argentina carded a third round-low 65 and is five shots back in a tie for eighth with hometown favorite and defending champion Jordan Spieth (68), Bill Haas (68), Masters champion Sergio Garcia of Spain (71) and second-round co-leader Scott Piercy (72).

“I have a chance for a low one tomorrow,” Spieth said. “There is no reason to hold anything back. I drove the ball tremendous today on this golf course. I feel great. You know, gosh, I put myself in position off the tee to shoot 8 under today.

With this heat, I just flew I think five greens to the back pins. You just can’t do that. More greens in reg tomorrow, and let her go.”

Only 20 of the 72 players went under par in the third round and 21 golfers have played the course in better than par over the past three days.

ATLANTA — Tiffany Hayes scored 24 points, while Layshia Clarendon handed out 12 assists and made key plays down the stretch as the Atlanta Dream edged the Los Angeles Sparks 75-73 on Saturday at McCamish Pavilion in Atlanta.

Clarendon, the reigning Eastern Conference Player of the Week, hit a bucket with 52 seconds to play, then drew an offensive foul and hit a free throw to help the Dream hand the defending champions their second straight loss.

“It was a great win,” Hayes said. “I really appreciate my teammates and how we all stuck together until the end. I just finished the shots I was supposed to finish.

“My teammates were finding the open player. If it was me, I was knocking it down.”

Chelsea Gray scored 25 points, and Nneka Ogwumike finished with 15 points for Los Angeles (2-2).

In a back-and-forth game, the Sparks opened the fourth quarter with an 11-2 run that featured a 3-pointer from Essence Carson and a basket from Gray that put Los Angeles ahead 55-53 midway with 6:46 to play.

Hayes, who suffered an ankle injury late in her last game, made two big free throws to put the Dream up four with 12 seconds left and then pulled down a clinching rebound on the Sparks’ final possession.

“You know a team like that is not just going to lay down and die, so we had to come out with a mindset of defense first,” Hayes said.

Atlanta grabbed an early lead, but went cold in the second quarter and was held to only nine points. The Sparks took advantage and went into halftime with a 32-29 at halftime.

The Dream (3-1) opened the second half with an 11-1 run capped by a layup from Bria Holmes that put Atlanta in front 40-33 midway through the third quarter. Holmes and Sancho Lyttle each finished with 11 points for the balanced Dream, who had four starters finish in double figures.

Los Angeles star forward Candace Parker struggled, connecting on 3 of 11 field goals and finishing with just six points.

Jantel Lavender came off the bench to score 10 points for the Sparks.

Atlanta wraps up its three-game homestand by hosting the San Antonio Stars on Wednesday.

Warriors favored over Cavaliers The Sports Xchange LeBron James and the Cleveland Cavaliers will be the underdog against the Golden State Warriors as the NBA Finals get underway next week.

The 2016 champion Cavs will battle the 2015 champion Warriors for the third straight year.

James scored 35 points and passed Michael Jordan to become the NBA’s alltime playoff scoring leader as the Cavaliers routed the Boston Celtics 135-102 on Thursday night to claim their third straight Eastern Conference title.

Both teams dominated throughout the playoffs — the Warriors making history by going an unprecedented 12-0 through three rounds in the Western Conference with the Cavs losing just a single game to the Celtics.

The league will showcase the two best teams again when the NBA Finals tip off on Thursday night (ABC, 9 p.m.).

The Westgate Las Vegas SuperBook installed Golden State as a minus-260 favorite, with Cleveland at plus-220, meaning a $100 bet on the Warriors would win $38.46, and the same bet on the Cavaliers would win $220, according to ESPN. The Warriors are listed as seven-point favorites for Game 1 at home, according to CBS Sports.

“I’m going to be honest,” James told reporters in Boston on Thursday night, “I’m not in the right mind to even talk about Golden State. It’s too stressful, and I’m not stressed right now.”

The Cavaliers and Warriors split their two meetings this season, both winning at home. Cleveland won by one point on Christmas Day and Golden State prevailed by 35 points on Jan. 16.

The Finals will mark the seventh straight trip for James and his eighth overall.

“I’ve been very blessed the last few years to be a part of this league and

play on the big stage,” James said. “But we’re going to enjoy this for a couple more days before we have to lock in on that juggernaut out west.”

Golden State led the league with a 67-15 record this season and is 27-1 in its last 28 games, including the playoffs.

“Playing in this league, you can’t take anything for granted,” Warriors guard Stephen Curry said after the Warriors beat the San Antonio Spurs 129-115 in Game 4 on Monday night. “Thirty teams suit up every year trying to get to this point, and only two teams do. So you have to appreciate it. … We need to understand the privilege that we have and the opportunity that we have to play in the Finals again, to have the opportunity to win a championship.”

While James is going for his fourth ring, Warriors forward Kevin Durant will be trying to win his first. Durant signed a two-year, $54.3 million contract with the Warriors last offseason.

Durant’s only other time in the Finals was 2012 when he was with Oklahoma City, but the Thunder lost to the Miami Heat in a series that made James a champion for the first time.

“It’s a little different, definitely. I can’t lie,” Durant said when comparing the 2012 Finals trip to this one. “I went when I was 23 years old, and it felt like the Western Conference Finals was almost like the championship.

Just getting to that point, you know how hard it is and how much work you put in to start the season.

So it’s a little different now, obviously. We have a bigger goal in mind.”

Historic Lilburn house offers connection to history for local volunteers

BY CAILIN O’BRIEN

cailin.obrien @gwinnettdailypost.com

HOW TO VISIT THE H ISTORIC WYNNE-RUSSELL HOUSE

Randall Burdette is almost constantly doing house work.

“I’ve always taken care of things in my own home,” he said. “Sheet rock work, plumbing work, patching the roof — that kind of thing.”

But at least once a week for the past two years, Burdette has painted, drilled and planted to keep up a home that has never and will never belong to him.

He volunteers countless hours and sheds no small amount of sweat over Lilburn’s historic WynneRussell house.

He said it’s a tool he uses to stay connected to the past.

“For me, there’s a real sense of continuity,” Burdette said.

He likes the way the oldest house in Lilburn connects him to the town’s history, beginning with a pioneer named Thomas Wynne, who built the home for his family in the 1820s, more than a decade after he served in the War of 1812.

After Wynne and his wife died, the house moved through a succession of relatives until it was inherited by George Allen

Ribbon-cutting for Meadowcreek bookmobile Gwinnett County Public Schools officials recently held a ribboncutting ceremony for a summer bookmobile in the Meadowcreek cluster.

The bus routes will start the first week in June and run through July 28.

The book mobile will travel a 35-stop route in the Meadowcreek Cluster each week, checking out school library books to students who may not have easy access to the public library. Next school year, local schools will be able to schedule the Bus as a part of their reading rewards program.

During the year, the book mobile will be stocked with new books — purchased with donations or provided by sponsors — that can be provided to students as a reward.

Lewis Grizzard’s favorite hymn from the songbook Before our dear friend Ed Parks died, he would invite us up to his house in Highlands on a Sunday and say, “We’ll have supper, then we’ll go over to the Little Church in the Wildwoods and sing.”

It is a tiny church perched on a perilous hill where a hundred folks crowd into the benches, pull out the Methodist hymn book and sing for an hour or so. We are Baptists. This means we serve the same Jesus as the Methodists but carry a different songbook. One after another, they passed through the congregation with each member requesting a song. One woman stood up and named her song, one I did not know, and said, “This is my favorite hymn. And it was Lewis Grizzard’s

favorite hymn, too.”

Across the congregation composed mostly of Atlantans and those from thereabouts, a sweet mummer of sorts tickled across the room.

“Oh,” I whispered sentimentally, pressing hand to heart. Tink chuckled.

He’s a Yankee but he knows who Lewis Grizzard is, and he continues to be entertained by him, over 20 years after his death at a young age.

Behind us on one of the small benches was Ed’s son, Doug, and his wife, Chris. Their daughter, Miranda, sat between them.

“Who’s Lewis Grizzard?” someone whispered. I whipped my head around to see it was Miranda.

Her parents were

Until that moment, I always thought that Grizzard, like Mark Twain and Will Rogers before him, would live on with his words, his humor and his uniqueness. He will with me, though.

Beginning in college Ronda when I was pursuing Rich a journalism degree, I never missed a Lewis aghast as if it was a parGrizzard column. He enting mistake on their ran thrice weekly in the part. Ed’s eyes widened Atlanta Journal Constiand he shook his head so tution.

It’s Lewis Grizzard is?” I always a host of people, asked, stunned even experiences, storytellers, though she was probably memories and emotions. born around the time he Lewis Grizzard, history’s died. most noted Southern

humorist columnist, influenced me more than the others. He was funny, straight-spoken, black or white, never gray and he practiced America’s promise of free speech before it became smothered in political correctness. His observations were often things that the rest of us missed or hadn’t considered, but when he said them, we laughed or agreed. Or we got mad. No reader of Lewis Grizzard’s was ever on his side 100 percent of the time. But that’s the mark of a good writer. He makes everyone mad at one time or another.

When I was in college, I’d get a couple of friends to go with me down to Harrison’s, a bar in Buckhead, which was Grizzard’s hangout. I was too young to realize how sad it was but, while we sipped Cokes and ginger ales a few feet away,

Grizzard sat at the bar, alone, and drank himself into a stupor. I remember one night that there were only six in the bar and we were three of them.

“This is silly,” said my friend, Jay, as I studied Grizzard, mesmerized.

“Why don’t you go over and meet him instead of mooning over him.”

“No! I can’t,” I exclaimed. “It would ruin the magic.”

So I never met Lewis Grizzard, one of the strongest influences of my writing career. But I have a library of his books that I re-read from time to time. I quote him occasionally and will remember him always.

And I have sung his favorite hymn.

Gratitude training brings big returns What are you grateful for? Your family? A home? These are the typical answers when people discuss gratitude. Pop culture is filled with studies touting the benefits of gratitude for health, happiness, and overall well-being.

But is it good for business?

According to the Harvard Medical School editorial “In Praise of Gratitude,” gratitude “helps people feel more positive emotions, relish good experiences, improve their health, deal with adversity and build strong relationships.”

Think about that. When organizations devote time and energy to creating positive cultures, they’re often trying to achieve the exact same outcomes gratitude provides.

Historically, gratitude and the workplace have a troubling relationship. A Templeton survey found that 35 percent of respondents believed expressing any gratitude could lead coworkers to take advantage of them. But the same survey found people were least likely to express gratitude in the workplace, despite wishing to be thanked more often. People are yearning for the very thing they are afraid to express.

When we think about gratitude at work, we often picture a “you should be grateful for your job” mentality. It’s hardly a rallying cry. Mandating gratitude doesn’t work.

Yet teaching employees the skills to cultivate and express gratitude has lasting benefits for individual and the organization.

Imagine a customer service rep with the skills to do his basic job, yet their mood vacillates up and down on a regular basis.

Now imagine that same service rep with the added skill to cultivate gratitude.

Imagine the representative being grateful for each customer who calls. How would that affect the customers? Imagine the representative using gratitude to reset themselves after a bad call. How would it impact their colleagues and future customers?

Gratitude doesn’t mean humbly accepting scraps.

Gratitude is a source of power and confidence. We teach gratitude as part of our culture consulting.

Here are three things our clients have fing most

482231-4

Forget Perfect

Lisa McLeod helpful: 1. Say thank you, and mean it Harvard Business School Professor Francesca Gino writes, “Receiving expressions of gratitude makes us feel a heightened sense of self-worth, and that in turn triggers other helpful behaviors toward both the person we are helping and other people, too.”

A culture of gratitude starts with the leader.

Verbally saying thank you helps you play the gratitude loop over in your head, and allows the “thankee” to do the same.

2. Action Take two seconds to look the person in the eye and smile when you say it. A mumbled “thanks” into your phone is good, eye contact and a smile is better.

3. Don’t limit yourself to the obvious Saying “great job” when someone closes a deal or stays up all night to resolve a customer issue is nice, but you can do more. Try integrating gratitude into mundane situations and even those that are problematic. For example, if a member of your team is behind on hitting their sales number, how can you help them feel gratitude? Talk about their best deals and the customers that have benefited the most. Getting your team member into a space of gratitude ignites the brain chemicals that will give them the energy to act.

4. Reward it You don’t have to develop a gratitude assessment or a Likert scale.

Use anecdotal feedback to help you here. Point out examples of employees helping each other, serving grateful customers, or even saying thank you.

Be specific when praising gratitude behaviors, employees will see it matters to you.

Technical skills are table stakes. Gratitude training takes your entire organization higher.

increased by about 420 pounds over last year’s results, it’s clear that we need to continue to educate the public on the many reasons why it’s important to put litter in its place. Not just during events like this, but yearround we all need to work together to protect and maintain these wetlands and precious water sources like the Chattahoochee River, Yellow River and Lake Lanier.

“Great programs like Adopt-A-Road and Adopt-A-Stream can help do just that. Fortunately, we are having a positive impact where invasive plants are concerned on this particular wetland. We only had to remove half of what we’d removed the year before. All in all, Great Gwinnett Wetlands was

an awesome success and we are so incredibly grateful to our awesome partners at Gwinnett County Department of Water Resources and our incredible volunteers for making that possible.”

Gwinnett Clean and Beautiful said it was thankful to The Aviation Institute of Maintenance, Gwinnett Parks and Recreation, and Gwinnett County Communications for their part in ensuring the event’s success, as well as to a number of local businesses and organizations that provided team leaders for the event.

SNELLVILLE City cracking down on illegal tree cutting City of Snellville officials are cracking down on people cutting down trees in the city without permission.

Following two treecutting sprees committed by shopping plaza owners, the city is in the process of adding more teeth to an already existing ordinance designed to prevent unwarranted tree removal by commercial property owners.

If you think a commercial business is cutting down a tree without permission, call the Snellville Planning Department at 770-9853513.

The fee for cutting down trees without permission is a minimum of $356 per tree per day. Under the new measure, which still awaits formal review and approval, violators would pay $995 per tree per day.

Also, under the proposed ordinance, removal of any tree without the approval from the city’s planning director is prohibited.

“In spite of Snellville’s long-standing ordinances prohibiting the arbitrary removal of trees, we have recently had some violations of those ordinances,” said Councilman Dave Emanuel. “While some violators plead ignorance, I believe they were in fact subscribing to the philosophy that it’s easier to ask for forgiveness than permission. It may be easier, but it will become a lot more expensive.”

Join us at the 3rd annual Generations Expo: 50+ Boomers & Seniors 3 money-saving travel tips for retirees Though a transient lifestyle is something few people aspire to during much of their lives, come retirement, the idea of staying in a place for only a short time has more appeal.

According to a study from the Transamerica Center for Retirement Studies, 36 percent of baby boomers want to spend their retirements traveling. Many are succeeding in doing just that, as a study from the luxury travel network Virtuoso found that today’s seniors spent an average of just over $11,000 per year on travel. That was more than any other generation, highlighting just how much older adults like to get out and explore the world.

Retirees who fear they cannot afford to travel can explore the various ways for seniors to cut costs and still satisfy their wanderlust during retirement.

1. Take advantage of agerelated discounts.

Some adults prefer to hide their ages, but when it comes time to travel during retirement, honesty is the best policy. Many businesses that cater to travelers offer discounts to seniors. Car rental agencies, hotels, travel agencies, and cruise lines may offer direct discounts to customers 65 and older, while membership in organizations such as AAA and AARP may make seniors eligible for additional discounts.

Discounts on lodging and airfare might net the biggest savings, but even discounts on various smaller expenses can add up to big savings.

to visit various travel websites in an effort to find the most affordable trips, it’s important that travelers not overlook travel agencies when planning trips. Travel websites, though a valuable resource, only list the hotels and airlines that agree to be included on their sites. While many participate, some do not, and those that do not may instead work independent of travel websites or partner with travel agencies. Travel agencies have access to the latest information, and many specialize in certain countries, knowing all the attractions visitors to their countries want to see. Travel agencies may offer packages that include admissions to popular attractions, which can be more affordable than planning a trip a la carte.

Don’t overlook travel able driving in foreign counagencies. tries where the rules of the road While many prospective 3. Travel as part of a group. are not the same. Traveling in travelers’ first instincts are now Group travel may not appeal groups, whether it’s with a retire-

ment community, religious organization or another program, can save travelers substantial amounts of money. Many hotels and tourist attractions offer steep discounts for group tours, which can even be arranged through travel agencies. A hidden benefit of signing up for a group tour is

the chance to meet new people and develop new relationships with fellow globetrotters.

Many working professionals hope to spend the bulk of their retirement traveling the globe.

While such a goal is potentially costly, there are various ways to save and still see the world.

Simple and natural ways to lower blood pressure High blood pressure is a big problem. According to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, roughly one in three adults in the United States has high blood pressure.

In Canada in 2014, slightly less than 18 percent of Canadians ages 12 and older reported being diagnosed with high blood pressure.

While such figures might be frightening, Johns Hopkins Medicine notes that there are some simple and natural ways for people to lower their high blood pressure.

• Opt for heart-healthy foods. Instead of foods that are high in sodium, eat a diet that

is rich in whole grains, fruits, vegetables, and lean proteins.

Check labels before buying prepared foods at the grocery store, as many such foods are high in sodium.

• Look for foods that contain probiotics. Johns Hopkins Medicine notes that studies have linked foods that contain probiotics to healthy blood pressure. Probiotics are consumable live bacteria, and while studies regarding the relationship between probiotics and blood pressure are ongoing, researchers believe probiotics may produce chemicals that, when absorbed in the blood stream, may activate receptors

in the blood vessels to lower blood pressure.

• Lose weight. People with high blood pressure who are carrying a few extra pounds should know that research indicates extra weight can cause injury to the heart. Dropping those pounds, especially through physical activity that can boost heart health, can help men and women lower their blood pressure.

Make sure to visit the Northeast Georgia Health System Wellness Zone at Generations Expo on Saturday, June 3 at Infinite Energy Forum from 10am-2pm, to get your blood pressure checked.

bestbets SUNDAY 8 p.m. on PBS National Memorial Day Concert This year, this long-standing television benchmark of the holiday is without the person who originated it: Executive producer Jerry Colbert died in January. However, Joe Mantegna continues the tradition as he returns to host the event on the West Lawn of the U.S. Capitol in Washington, D.C. With his usual co-host Gary Sinise appearing in a taped segment, Laurence Fishburne (“blackish”) assumes that role.

Performers include Renee Fleming and Scotty McCreery.

MONDAY 10:01 p.m. on ABC Still Star-Crossed Ostensibly something different for executive producer Shonda Rhimes — but not really, given tangled relationships in such shows as “Grey’s Anatomy” and “Scandal” — this new drama series focuses on the families of Romeo and Juliet after the young lovers’ deaths.

Inspired by Melinda Taub’s novel, the show includes Grant Bowler, Torrance Coombs (“Reign”) and Anthony Head (“Buffy the Vampire Slayer”) in its premiere, “In Fair Verona, Where We Lay Our Scene.”

TUESDAY

10 p.m. on NBC World of Dance Jennifer Lopez has a good relationship with NBC through her police drama “Shades of Blue,” and it’s bound to get stronger with this new competition series, on which she’s an executive producer as well as a judge. Starting with “The Qualifiers I,” she, Ne-Yo and

Gordon Ramsay “Dancing With the Stars” veteran Derek Hough weigh in on solo performers and teams who face rivals from different dance disciplines in pursuit of a $1 million grand prize. Jenna Dewan Tatum is the host.

WEDNESDAY 9 p.m. on FOX The F Word With Gordon Ramsay As if he didn’t have enough cooking-show “real estate” on Fox, chef Ramsay launches yet another series involving food, glorious food — which, if you hadn’t already guessed, is “The F Word” in this case. Teams

compete to win the favor of those they cook for and serve, including celebrity guests, with each episode’s winning squad then vying to be one of the top two teams for the entire season. That will qualify them to go for a sizable cash prize in the finale.

9 p.m. on NBC The Carmichael Show It’s logical that title star Jerrod Carmichael is friends with veteran producer Norman Lear, whose classic “All in the Family” has much in common with this series, starting Season 3. Topicality is foremost in the minds of Carmichael and his writing team, as indicated here by “Yes Means Yes,” in which Jerrod (Carmichael) and Maxine (Amber Stevens West) have different views of her friend’s online post about sexual assault. Another episode follows.

THURSDAY 9 p.m. on FOX Love Connection Andy Cohen continues his role as host of the new reboot of this series with “Episode Two,” as several more single people

are sent on blind dates, then return to tell the famously inquisitive Cohen and a studio audience if they made a ”love connection” ... or not. Cohen has said he was weaned on the original, Chuck Wooleryhosted version of the program, and his own brand of questioning (which he honed on “Watch What Happens Live”) gives this edition a twist.

FRIDAY 9 p.m. on PBS The 76th Annual Peabody Awards Taped in mid-May at New York’s Cipriani Wall Street, the honors for media excellence get a bigger television showcase this year, with both PBS and Fusion showing the ceremony. Rashida Jones — no stranger to these awards, since her series “Parks and Recreation” won one — hosts.

Saluted are achievements in news, documentaries, entertainment, children’s programming, educational programming and public service. Recipients include veteran producer Norman Lear.

SATURDAY 9 p.m. on HALL Movie: Destination Wedding After months planning her sister Mandy’s (Andrea Brooks) destination wedding, Ellie’s (Alexa PenaVega) delight as the guests start to arrive gives way to dismayed horror as she realizes the bride and groom are MIA for their own wedding.

Moreover the groom’s best man is Ellie’s ex, Greg (Jeremy Guilbaut), although he readily pitches in to help avert what is shaping up as a disaster in this 2017 romantic comedy.

It’s never too late to Move on When Ready OK, “never too late” might be an exaggeration.

At some point, it actually will be too late. But that point has not yet arrived: You still have plenty of time to register for fall dual enrollment classes — aka Move on When Ready.

And if you’re a rising high school senior, or the parent of one, you should definitely consider it.

For those who don’t know, MOWR allows qualified high school seniors (and in some cases, juniors) to take college classes for dual credit — meaning the classes count toward high school graduation but are also bona fide college courses.

Through MOWR, stu-

Rob Jenkins dents can pick up anywhere from a course or two (like English comp or college algebra) to an entire year’s worth of college while still in high school. And the best part is, the state pays for practically all of it.

Although some MOWR courses are offered at local high schools, I believe

students are better served by taking classes on the actual college campus. Gwinnett residents enjoy multiple options, including Georgia State University, with campuses in Alpharetta, Clarkston, Dunwoody, and Covington, and Georgia Gwinnett College. Both have strong MOWR programs.

And yes, I’m familiar with the argument that Advanced Placement high school courses are somehow superior to college courses taken through MOWR. Frankly, that doesn’t make sense.

In the interest of full disclosure, I’ve been involved with dual enrollment for

an AP course, students still have to earn an acceptable score on a standardized test at the end of the year.

Given that fact, it shouldn’t surprise anyone that AP classes sometimes tend to focus more on preparing students for the AP exam than on helping them master the relevant material.

MOWR students, on the other hand, only have to complete the course with a passing grade to receive college credit — credit that will transfer to any state institution in Georgia, as well as to many private and out-ofstate institutions.

And by the way, MOWR also provides an excellent opportunity for home-

schooled students as young as 16 to get a head-start on their college education, basically for free.

So, again, if you’re just now learning about MOWR, or if you’ve been thinking about it but weren’t sure, it’s not too late. Just go to your local university website and search for “Move on When Ready.”

For them, MOWR was a great experience.

All four also took multiple AP courses, which I did not regard as being particularly college-like, although they were very good high school classes. In some cases, the AP courses may have been “harder” than their college-level counterparts, in that they entailed a lot more busy-work, but the intellectual rigor wasn’t equivalent.

Burdette had already spotted another part of the banister that needed replaced.

But he’s happy to do it.

“There’s pleasure in going back and reliving the way your grandfather handled a saw or the way he routed out a hole or the way he used a chisel and cut a square peg,” Burdette said. “There’s pleasure in knowing that your hands are doing the same thing that a man born in the 1880s did.”

Burdette isn’t the only Lilburn resident who has felt pleasure in reminiscing with the old house. When commercial entities were threatening to demolish the house after Miss Mary’s death in 1971, resident and mayor’s wife Janice Sawyer rescued it out of nostalgia.

She was a part of the Lilburn Woman’s Club at the time.

“Because of her individual personal love for this house and the people who lived here, it got rescued,” Burdette said. “And the Lilburn Woman’s Club took care of it.”

They took care of it until 1976, when the city bought the house and took over its upkeep.

Since then, there’s been no shortage of residents enamored enough with the house’s history to help care for it, especially in the last few years. In 2014, The Lilburn Community Partnership formed the Wynn-Russell preservation committee, a group of locals dedicated to keeping the old house renovated.

Burdette is the co-chair of that committee. He leads the monthly meetings and

But Bolton said he also welcomes the work as a way to stay connected to Lilburn both past and present.

“It’s just a sense of community,” Bolton said.

“It’s one of the few places in Lilburn that shows the history of Lilburn.”

Burdette said residents outside the preservation committee help out, too.
