Big issues at stake in gubernatorial race Abrams, Kemp and Metz make last push for Georgia governor

BY CURT YEOMANS

curt.yeomans@gwinnettdailypost.com

Georgia’s hotly contested gubernatorial race has been dominated by the debate about whether Republican Brian Kemp or Democrat Stacey Abrams is

more fit to lead the state, but the answer to that question might be found in their stances on the state’s big issues.

Republicans and Democrats are not the only parties that have a candidate in the race. In addition to Kemp and Abrams,

Brian Kemp

the other party candidate appearing on the ballot is Libertarian Ted Metz. There are also several

write-in candidates including Bobby Waldrep, Bobby Williams, David C. Byrne and Rod Mack.

But much of the attention has Ted centered around Metz Kemp and Abrams. Several polls released in recent weeks show them neck and neck as election day ap-

proaches.

But where do they stand on issues such as school security and Medicaid expansion?

Abrams told the Daily Post in August that her school security plans include changing rules on education special purpose local option sales taxes so funds that have traditionally been limited to capital costs can also be used for

Detective: Woman used sex to lure murder victim

numbers, reaching more than 1,500 attendees, organizers said.

“We do this because we don’t want any woman in Gwinnett — or any woman, period — to go without being able to afford a mammogram,” said Gwinnett Medical Center Oncology Community Outreach Navigator Jennifer Griffin, who helped found the event in 2016. “We know insurance companies will pay for screening mammograms,

One of three teens accused of killing a 21-year-old Lawrenceville man and leaving his body by a Suwanee home earlier this month lured the victim to the location by promising sex in exchange for money, detectives said.

Gwinnett County Police Department Detective Micah Hegwood testified at a preliminary hearing Thursday that 17-yearold Franecha Torres, of Norcross, told William Tunchez she would have sex with him for $300 if he drove to Northcliff Drive in Suwanee on the Franecha night of Oct. 7.

Torres The plan was to rob Tunchez. When he got there, Torres’ co-defendants, Nicholas Evans, 17, and Khalil Miller, 18, both of Suwanee, attacked Tunchez, with Evans pointing a gun at Tunchez and Miller hitting him Nicholas over the head with a stick, Evans Hegwood said.

“When the victim entered the wood line, he saw Evans point the gun at (him),” Hegwood said.

“The victim grabbed the barrel of the gun shifting side-to-side, fighting over it. That’s when it went Khalil off.”

Miller Tunchez was shot in the neck and died from his injuries. His body was left at the scene and found the next day by neighborhood children, the Daily Post previously reported.

Hegwood said Thursday that Miller returned to the scene the following day to check on the body.

According to detectives, Evans admitted that he and Miller are part of the Gangster Disciples gang and said that Miller gave the command to rob Tunchez.

Miller is also allegedly the one who gave the command to commit several other armed robberies in Suwanee, Hegwood said, which is how detectives were able to link the three teens to Tunchez’s murder.

Gwinnett offers Sunday voting for first time Gwinnett County will offer Sunday voting for the first time today, but the county’s elections officials are reporting that turnout for advance in-person voting is hitting new highs.

That is up from 34,817 ballots cast during the first 10 days of advance voting for the 2016 general election, when a highly contested presidential race was on the ballot, and 11,435 ballots during the first 10 days of advance voting for the 2014 general election.

“From lowering our taxes, to investing in our ports, to protecting Georgia’s water from Washington politics, to building 21st century infrastructure, and so much more, Rob Woodall has been a leader for us in Congress.

The Gwinnett County Animal Welfare and Enforcement shelter in Lawrenceville reopened Friday after a week-long quarantine caused by an outbreak of Strep Zoo. The disease outbreak caused the deaths of four dogs and lead to the euthanization of another dog showing signs of the respiratory disease, before the shelter closed and all animals were placed under quarantine.

The disease only affects the respiratory systems of dogs, but officials chose to close the entire shelter for a week as a precaution.

County spokesman Joe Sorenson said no other dogs died from Strep Zoo or showed signs of the disease during the quarantine period.

“The other animals were treated with an antibiotic and gone through the period that they needed to go through with this disease so they are open again and adopted 21 animals (Friday),” Sorenson said.

“Cats were never in danger of getting (Strep Zoo), but the way they wanted to handle it was to shut down the whole place and make sure there was no chance of cross contamination from anybody, but they are open for business (Friday) and they will (continue to) be open for business.”

When the shelter closed last week, county officials said a deep cleaning was being conducted to get rid of the disease in addition to treating dogs housed there.

Keith Roach

Chronic pain is a complex problem Dear Dr. roaCh: The letter from the person taking tramadol for 10 years hit a nerve. Your answer prompted me to write.

My 63-year-old husband has been on painkillers since 1994, when he tore his ligaments around L-5/S-1. He had back surgeries in 2002 (fusion and hardware), 2005 (remove hardware that was bothering him) and 2005 (two weeks later, emergency debridement surgery for infection).

Over the years, he has taken every form of opiate out there, and when workers’ compensation decided to stop paying for his OxyContin last year, his pain management specialist put him on buprenorphine 2 mg, twice a day. Nothing really helps; it just keeps the pain down to a dull roar. He also takes gabapentin for neuropathy.

His pain doctor has now retired, but the doctor’s associate keeps prescribing the tablets each month with no discussion of ever trying to wean him off. I’m not sure if these meds were ever intended to be for life. He has never abused the dosages, but he seems to think that if he were weaned off the medication that he would be in an unbearable amount of pain.

Otherwise, he is in excellent health. We eat well, do yoga and Pilates, and ride our mountain bikes several times per week.

— R.A. ansWer: Management of chronic pain is a complex issue. One study found that chronic opiate use did not actually reduce the pain the person is in, at least by self-reported pain measurements. Over time, the body adjusts to the amount of pain medication.

On the other hand, there are some people who have much better pain control on opiates, so an experienced pain management specialist must use his or her best judgment, and sometimes a trial of reducing dosage is appropriate.

Gabapentin is a common treatment to reduce overall pain. However, it is important to recognize that complete cessation of pain is unrealistic, and keeping the pain manageable and keeping up activity are appropriate goals.

Dear Dr. roaCh: Can a blocked saliva gland cause a cough? I had one stone removed and continue to have swelling. I have a cough and wonder if they could be related.

— G.S. ansWer: The symptoms of salivary gland stones mostly have to do with the glands themselves: swelling and sometimes pain. Initial management includes fluid intake, moist heat and “milking” the duct to promote passage. A sour candy like a lemon drop, which promotes saliva, can help make the diagnosis, as it may cause an increase in pain, but it also can pop the stone right out if the stone is small or near the exit of the duct. Cough is not a usual symptom in salivary duct stones.

To Report a News Item:

Dear amy: I married a wonderful woman about two years ago. Six months later, her widower son moved into our house, with his five children. The children ranged in age from a newborn baby to 8 years old.

This “man” couldn’t raise one child, much less five.

The children have had no formal (or any) education, nor medical or dental care. The mother died in childbirth (due to her own lack of medical care) with the baby, who is now 13 months old.

I am a semi-retired psychologist; I love my wife and grandchildren, and I try my best.

I will do anything to save my marriage.

However, whenever I try to discuss this situation with my wife, I’m cast as a heartless, uncaring wretch.

She is reluctant (but perhaps willing) to go to therapy with me, but I’m actually afraid to address this, as it is perhaps a deal-breaker.

Of course, we never discussed such a possibility of raising all of these children prior to our marriage.

and ultimately she will be forced into a situation she might not like. But if she relocates to your new town and moves in with you (an option you imply is open to her), it does not solve your desire for “us time.” In fact, it saddles you with your mother full time.

You do not owe it to your mother to stay in your home town, but your retreat does seem statement-making, and hasty.

Your kids aren’t even in college yet. Your best bet for the early period of retirement might be to stay where you are for two years or so and plan to take long trips away.

Last person sentenced in ’17 Norcross rape

By IsaBel HugHes

isabel.hughes @gwinnettdailypost.com

The fifth person responsible for a brutal home invasion in which a Norcross mother had boiling water thrown on her and then was raped her in front of one of her children has been sentenced for his crimes.

Gwinnett County Judge Howard Cook sentenced 19-year-old Norcross resident Francisco Palencia to 111 years in prison for the May 12, 2017, attack, the Gwinnett County District Attorney’s Office said Friday.

Palencia’s four co-defendants, Jose Carranza, Josue Ramirez, Angela Garcia and Ana Lopez, all pleaded guilty and were sentenced earlier this month.

According to the DA’s office, the victim returned home from work at about 2:50 a.m when she was attacked.

“She noticed the kitchen light was on,” Gwinnett County Police Department Detective A.R. Scott said previously. “And then she was attacked by two masked men wearing all black. She was forced into the kitchen where boiling

After being questioned by police, Lopez, Garcia, Ramirez and Palencia all admitted that they were being paid by Carranza to rob and attack the victim, the DA’s office said.

Griffin said the money raised — this year’s goal is $200,000 — will help with some of that.

“We don’t want women to get a call back after having a screening mamogram and not come back because they can’t afford it, and then when they do come back, there’s something there,” she said.

“Breast cancer is preventable with screenings, so if we can help with that, we try to.”

As October’s Breast Cancer Awareness Month comes to a close, Diagnostic Radiologist Kimberly Hutcherson, who had breast cancer herself, said events like Saturday’s are important, both because they raise awareness about breast cancer, which is the second leading cause of death for women, and because they raise money for research and other endeav-

“It’s a program that’s not working,” he said.

“It needs reforming. You know continuing to grow a government program that doesn’t work — we’ve tried that before. It doesn’t work. It’s going to cost more.”

On other issues, Kemp told the Daily Post earlier this month that his approach to school safety includes funding $30,000 grants to all schools to cover security improvement costs and also funding one counselor position for every high school in Georgia so they can address mental health or substance issues that might prompt a shooting.

Although Kemp has heavily touted his support of second amendment rights on the campaign trail, he said he would leave the issue of arming teachers to individual districts to decide.

“It’s a local control issue,” he said. “I know we have some systems that are going that route. I certainly support the ability for them to do that, but for school systems that do not want to do that, I support them as well.”

Kemp said he would also continue efforts started

under Gov. Nathan Deal to improve third-grade reading levels and get all child care centers rated by 2020.

He also wants to provide a $600 million pay raise for teachers and protect scholarships for private pre-kindergarten programs.

Meanwhile, Metz, a retired financial planner, has called for eliminating property and state income taxes and replacing them with “full on sales, use tax and user fees” that would serves as a “low and broad consumption tax” on his website, tedmetz.com.

Metz has also called “eliminating redundant departments and agencies, (and) ending unconstitutional functions” in state government as one way to reduce state expenditures.

Some of Metz’s other proposals outlined on his campaign website include creating an outer loop around Atlanta and a statewide monorail system, consolidating school systems, closing failing schools, merit pay for teachers, workforce training for adults, establishing college or technical school pathways in middle schools, requiring immigrants sign a guest registry and decriminalizing less than an ounce of recreational cannabis.

During that time, I had some local pain and did a mammogram and made my own diagnosis (of breast cancer).”

Hutcherson said being treated for breast cancer at the place she worked was a unique experience and also makes her passionate about events such as Paint Gwinnett Pink, which keeps all of its proceeds in the Gwinnett community.

Nuclear-treaty withdrawal sends message to N. Korea WASHINGTON — In announcing his decision to withdraw from the 1987 Intermediate-range Nuclear Forces Treaty, President Trump cited Russia’s repeated violations and the fact that the treaty does not bind China, which is engaged in the world’s most ambitious ballistic missile development program. But Trump’s withdrawal may also be designed for another purpose. It sends a subtle but unmistakable message to North Korea: If you refuse to denuclearize, we can now surround your Marc country with Thiessen short- and medium-range missiles that will allow us to strike your regime without warning.

At the moment, the Trump administration appears to be making little progress in nuclear talks with Pyongyang. The threat of deployment of intermediaterange missiles in Asia could change the dynamics of those negotiations. Recall that in 1983, President Ronald Reagan announced plans to deploy hundreds of U.S. intermediate-range Pershing II missiles in Western Europe in response to the Soviet Union’s deployment of SS-20 nuclear missiles. The U.S. deployment sparked mass protests throughout Europe, but it also put enormous pressure on Moscow — and in so doing laid the groundwork for a series of arms control breakthroughs, including the INF Treaty.

By withdrawing from the INF Treaty, Trump can now put similar pressure on Pyongyang. The treaty barred both conventional and nuclear land-based missiles with a range of 300 to 3,400 miles.

Freed from the treaty’s constraints, the United States can now deploy hundreds of conventional short- and medium-range missiles to bases in Asia, including in Guam (2,100 miles from North Korea) and Japan (650 miles). There would no longer be a need to send U.S. aircraft carriers on temporary deployments to waters off the Korean Peninsula as a sign of military strength. The deployment of intermediate-range missiles in the region would put North Korea permanently in our crosshairs.

Pyongyang certainly does not want these U.S. missiles on its doorstep. Neither does Beijing, which knows such a deployment would restore U.S. military supremacy in the Pacific. According to Adm. Harry Harris, former commander of U.S. Pacific Command, China possesses the “largest and most diverse missile force in the world” — and 95 percent of its missiles “would violate the INF [Treaty] if China was a signatory.” The fact that Beijing has such missiles, while the United States does not, puts the United States at a strategic disadvantage in any conflict with Beijing.

As my American Enterprise Institute colleague Dan Blumenthal pointed out in The Washington Post, our only possible response would be to strike China with intercontinental ballistic missiles — an unacceptable escalation. By contrast, the U.S. withdrawal from the INF Treaty allows deployment of conventional mobile ground-based missiles in Guam and Japan, improving our ability to deter Chinese aggression.

Trump can deploy Tomahawk cruise missiles on ground launchers to the Pacific almost immediately after withdrawal from the treaty. Withdrawal would also pave the way for U.S. development and deployment of new missiles banned by the treaty, as well as new hypersonic weapons — which travel five times faster than the speed of sound — to compete with China’s massive investment in these capabilities. This would be a massive strategic setback to both China and North Korea.

So by withdrawing from the INF Treaty, and clearing the way for such deployments, Trump has given the United States a massive new bargaining chip. North Korea now has a new incentive to denuclearize, and China has a new strategic interest pressuring them to do so.

It still may not work. But if those negotiations fail, Trump’s INF Treaty withdrawal has given the United States a fallback option that will allow Washington to more effectively deter both Beijing and Pyongyang — and reassert American military primacy in the region.

Hurting for Hurricane Michael victims Am I my brother’s keeper?

Absolutely. My sister’s, too. Particularly, if they are my readers.

When they hurt, I hurt.

I have been blessed to write a weekly column that has been running in newspapers throughout the state of Georgia for the past two decades. There are readers I have never met faceto-face but who I consider my friends, thanks to their emails and letters and to the editors who give me the opportunity to correspond with them.

This past week, I have been in touch with a number of people in south Georgia whose towns were in the direct and devastating path of Hurricane Michael.

I can’t imagine what they have been through and are still going through. It is a cliche but one that fits the situation — I guess you had to be there.

Homes have been destroyed, lives have been lost and livelihoods wrecked. As I mentioned last week, I had planned to brag on Georgia’s olive industry, a gem unknown as of yet to many Georgians, but highly regarded by some of America’s top chefs.

I had interviewed Jason Shaw, who is involved in the olive business in Lakeland, near Valdosta.

Shaw, also a state representative, talked to me on his tractor (that was a new experience!) while trying to harvest the family corn

of us. We are much better at predicting natural disasters, but we haven’t learned how to prevent them from happening.

Please take a moment and see what you can do to help.

Call your local Red Cross or other relief agencies and find out what they say are the most basic needs. I suspect drinking water is a priority. Many churches and businesses and civic organizations are collecting money for relief aid. Volunteers are needed, as well. There is something you can do, even at a long distance.

Rep. Jason Shaw, whose family and property were spared much of the damage, has been in touch with his colleagues in the hurricane-ravaged area and says it is heartening to see how total strangers are reaching out to the victims. Somehow, it seems to take a tragedy to bring out the best in us.

As for me, I am feeling a special hurt today because I have a lot of readers in southwest Georgia who are hurting as well.

I wish I could think of something that would bring a smile to their face. And I promise I will.

I owe them that. They deserve it.

Bless them, one and all.

You could learn a lot from the county fair Schools these days seem to have an awful lot of early release days. They claim these days are to hold conferences with parents or for staff development for the overworked and underpaid faculties. I think they just want to get rid of the little monsters a little early every now and then, on general principle.

Way back in the middle of the previous century, when I was a student, we had exactly one early release day a year, and it was a glorious day, indeed. It was Fair Day, and we looked forward to it all year long!

That’s right. Schools let out early so the schoolchildren of Newton County could go to the county fair. I’m sure they did the same thing in Rockdale County, too, as well as every other rural county in the North Georgia Piedmont and, since this was the 1950s, they had one day for white children at the fair and one day for black children. I ain’t making this up. That’s the way they did things. No wonder my generation grew up being so confused about race relations.

We all overcame our fears and prejudices and became friends once they let us be together in school, though. I don’t know what has happened to the younger generation, but that is another story for another day.

Today I am talking about

Darrell Huckaby the county fair: cotton candy and candy apples and snow cones and picking up ducks and knocking over cats with lopsided softballs to win giant Teddy bears — or trying to.

I would save my money all fall for the fair, but when they started putting up the brightly colored posters around town announcing the appearance of the James H. Drew Exposition, I would start looking for ways to come up with a little extra — like sweeping up acorns from people’s yards or collecting Coca-Cola bottles and turning them in for the deposit. There was so much to do and see at the fair, and I usually saw it and did it with my friend, neighbor and playmate, Linda King — at least until I was 6 or 7 years old and started hanging around with the boys in my class at school.

My older sister, Myron, liked the thrill rides, like the Tilt-a-whirl and Octopus and

Scrambler. I remember that she and her friends would get really excited if they learned that the fair featured the Bullet in a particular year. I never liked spinning rides. They made me throw up. I preferred the Ferris wheel and the roller coaster and, I’ll admit, I enjoyed the merrygo-round a year or two longer than I should.

I also liked the freak shows, although I had to sneak in and hope nobody told my mama that I had been to see Emmett the Dog Boy — he looked just like an old hound dog — or the fat woman or the bearded lady.

I liked the “games of skill,” too, like trying to get a coin to land on a glass plate or a softball to land in a basket. It looked so easy to knock over those cats or milk bottles or land a hoop over a giant prize. Sometimes my grandmother, Mama Ellis, took us to the fair and she was four-square against gambling. I couldn’t even pick up a duck if Mama Ellis was with me. It was just as well. All I ever won was a Chinese handcuff, anyway, and I always wound up getting my fingers stuck in the thing and tearing it up to get them out.

Sometimes we would go back to the fair on Saturday night so my daddy and the other men in the Gleaner Sunday school class could go to the hoochie coochie

show and watch Little Egypt dance. Mama would always remind me that Saturday nights were just for walking and looking because I had already spent my fair money on school day.

When I was in high school, we would go over on Sunday and try to earn some spending money by helping the roustabouts set up the rides. They were a rough bunch and often supplemented the education I got from hanging around the old men in the dope house at the Osprey Mill.

It was also in high school when I learned that the fair was a little rougher on Friday and Saturday nights than it was on Wednesday afternoon. And I will never forget the time Bobbie Wrenn Banks and I spent two hours going through the trash at the Lion’s Club Pavilion trying to find the retainer that she may or may not have left there earlier that day.

We didn’t find the retainer, but it was the beginning of a beautiful friendship.

I think schools would be better off if we still let kids out early to go to the fair.

Speaking of which, I think we’d all be better off if we still had county fairs, period.

Reducing recidivism

BY ISABEL HUGHES

isabel.hughes @gwinnettdailypost.com

Nearly a decade ago, Tony Kitchens and his wife decided they needed to

move into a better neighborhood.

“We were trying to move to the prosperous side of town because we were living in the hood at the time,” Kitchens said. “We met all

the necessary requirements — we had great employment, great references, we had the deposit.”

But Kitchens also had something else: a prison record.

Re-entry conference stresses cooperation from community

“Upon completion of the background check — at that time, I had been out of prison for 25 years — we were told that I could not have a criminal record for 100 years in order to rent an apartment in that particular area,” Kitchens said. “So much for the whole attitude of changing your playground, right? We say, ‘Change your playground,’ but see, we have to have the opportunity to be able to change your playground.”

Kitchens, who works as the field director for Prison Fellowship, a ministry that “seeks to restore those affected by crime and incarceration by introducing prisoners, victims and their families to a new hope available through Jesus Christ,” served as keynote speaker for the Greater Gwinnett Reentry Alliance’s fourth annual conference, which was held at the Gwinnett Justice and Administration Center on Friday.

The Alliance, a nonprofit, was founded several years ago with the intent of reducing the recidivism rate in Gwinnett and helping former inmates re-enter and reintegrate — something Kitchens stressed is different than re-entry — into society, which is often a difficult task.

“The technicals of collateral consequences run deep,” Kitchens said.

“Whether you receive a prison sentence of 50 years, five years or five months, you still get a life sentence — a life sentence of being marginalized, living under the radar, (being) isolated, filled with shame, filled with guilt. This is why re-entry is different than reintegration.”

years behind bars for raping two teens: his girlfriend’s younger sister and cousin.

Ronnie Stone was convicted of rape, statutory rape, aggravated child molestation, enticing a child for indecent purposes and contributing to the delinquency of a minor following a bench trial that was presided over by Gwinnett County Superior Court Judge Ronnie Bachelor.

According to the Gwinnett County District Attorney’s Office, one of the victims, a 14-year-old girl, was visiting family in her first-ever trip to Georgia when she and her cousin, a 15-year-old girl, were brought to Stone’s house. “(Stone) had recently spent time with the family at Christmas after being invited by his girlfriend — the 20-year-old sister (of the 15-year-old) and the cousin of the (14-year-old) victim,” the DA’s office said. “(Stone) sent a car and the two (juvenile) girls were brought to his home in Gwinnett. (Stone) put on a movie, provided a drink of some sort, as well as marijuana, which the (15-year-old) girl smoked.”

Then, the DA’s office said, Stone had sex with the 15-year-old while the 14-year-old was in the room.

“The (14-year-old) girl said that after the sex, she could not wake her older cousin and had not seen her in that state despite the two growing up together and having seen her smoke

marijuana before,” the DA’s office said. “The defendant then ordered the 14-year-old Ronnie to the other Stone bedroom in the home where he raped and digitally penetrated her.”

Stone fled the scene early the next morning and left the state several days later “without responding to the calls placed to him by the Special Victim’s Unit Detective investigating the case,” the DA’s office said.

“On the morning after the assault, while the family was speaking to police and the girls were being examined, (Stone) called and told his girlfriend, the sister/cousin of the juvenile victims, that he had consensual sex with both girls,” the DA’s office said. “(He) testified (at trial) that he didn’t know the second girl would accompany her cousin and that he only left Georgia because he had previously purchased airfare to go to visit his wife and child in another state.”

Both girls’ sexual assault kits were found to have DNA matching Stone “or a male relative to him, though, by the account of all three present, nobody else was in the home that night,” the DA’s office said.

Stone was sentenced to life with the 20 years to be served in confinement.

BACK TO BACK Wesleyan strikes early, often to repeat as state champs

Game effort not quite enough for Mill Creek, North, Buford at tourney

david.friedlander@gwinnettdailypost.com

COLUMBUS — Mary Stephenson had a simple plan for her Wesleyan softball team’s stay at the Class A (Private) state tournament this weekend at the South Commons Softball Complex.

“Our coach kind of has a (take advantage of our opportunities) mindset,” Wolves centerfielder Jahni Kerr said.

The Wolves definitely never let Prince Avenue Christian up in both games they played against each other during championship Saturday.

First, Wesleyan jumped on Prince Avenue for three runs in the first inning, and scored in all four frames while scoring a 12-0 run-rule win in the winner’s bracket Saturday morning.

Then in the afternoon, the Wolves got out to an early lead again in the rematch in the championship game, with Madison Kerpics driving in a first-inning run to set the stage for her complete-game, two-hit shutout in a 7-0 victory.

Kerr drove in three runs, including a two-run home run, in the second game to help secure back-to-back state titles for Wesleyan (26-4).

But it was the way the Wolves did it that impressed Stephenson the most.

“It’s going to take me a minute to process that,” Stephenson said during the postgame celebration.

“For them to come out and do what they did like that is a focus and an execution I don’t know that I’ve seen before. I think it’s evidence of our maturity. We’ve got a young group of kids, but

COLUMBUS — Having fallen into the elimination bracket of the Class AAAAAAA state softball tournament late Thursday, Mill Creek knew it had a tough task ahead heading into Saturday’s play.

The Hawks nearly pulled it off, beating North Gwinnett 3-1 and Lassiter 3-0 in elimination games before falling to East Coweta 9-0 in the championship game at the South Commons Softball Complex.

Dallis Goodnight was a factor at the plate and on the basepaths in both the early games, while Madison Dobbins added a solo home run that gave Mill Creek (30-6) the lead in the sixth inning of the Lassiter game.

But the Hawks couldn’t break through in the championship round against East Coweta pitcher Kelley Lynch, who retired all 15 batters she faced, and added two hits and two RBIs at the plate.

FRIDAY NIGHT FOOTBALL RECAP

Dacula wins another region title From Staff Reports DACULA — Lanier still hasn’t solved Dacula.

Neither has anyone else in Region 8-AAAAAA. The Falcons continued their mastery of region play Friday night with a 23-0 victory over Lanier, clinching their third straight 8-AAAAAA championship. They have won 14 straight region games dating back to a 2015 loss to Parkview in the regular-season finale.

Lanier is 0-3 against Dacula during that stretch, scoring just seven total points in the three losses.

Spikes took those words to heart and hauled in a 29-yard touchdown pass from Luke Hennebaul with 1:19 left, lifting the Bears to a key 14-10 win over Collins Hill in Region 6-AAAAAAA action Friday night.

The TD by Spikes came on the heels of a dramatic 34-yard field from Eli Marshbank that gave the Eagles a 10-7 lead with 1:51 to play.

The Bears (6-3, 3-2) had been forced to use all their timeouts to keep the Eagles (3-6, 3-2) from running out the clock before Marshbank’s kick, leaving the Bears with little room for error on their last possession.

But a personal foul penalty on the ensuing kickoff kept Mountain View from starting in a deep hole inside its own 20, pushing the ball out to the 29.

The passing game for the Bears had struggled all night against a stout Collins Hill defense, but Hennebaul (10for-18, 102 yards, one TD, one interception) found a rhythm on the final drive, hitting on all four attempts, including the 29-yarder

touchdowns in a 24-14 win over Brookwood on Friday night.

Kicker Kellen Grave de Peralta was 3-for-3 with field goals of 39, 42 and 35 yards for Norcross, which also benefitted from four takeaways on defense.

“We needed to score touchdowns instead of field goals, and we knew we left some points on the field at the half,” Norcross coach Keith Maloof said. “As long as we respond, we’re good.”

The Norcross (5-4, 4-1) win clinched the No. 2 seed from Region 7-AAAAAAA and a home playoff game against the No. 3 team from Region 6. Brookwood (6-3, 3-2) is slotted as the No. 3 seed for the state playoffs.

Grave de Peralta had a pair of crucial kicks in the first half which separated the Blue Devils from the Broncos 13-7 at halftime. Brookwood led 7-3 with 2:51 left in the first quarter on a Chris Carter TD run.

The Broncos scored on a 22-yard pass from sophomore quarterback Caleb Ellard to sophomore wideout Dylan King.

Ellard motioned Carter out of the backfield and offensive lineman Sean Hill was set up in the slot.

Ellard looked toward Hill, who had his hands out-stretched and found King virtually uncovered for a TD. Eli Kohl of Brookwood had 154 yards rushing and Carter had 120.

North Gwinnett 42, Peachtree Ridge 0 SUWANEE — North Gwinnett continued its upward trend as the Region 6-AAAAAAA leaders dispatched of Peachtree Ridge 42-0 to remain undefeated in region play Friday.

“The whole focus for us these last couple of weeks has been getting better as a football team,” North head coach Bill Stewart said. “We have focused on attention to detail and the bye week will be a continuation of that.”

North (8-2, 6-0) was paced by Tyler Goodson, who rushed for 52 yards and four scores. J.R. Martin completed 8 of his 12 passes for 100 yards and one TD.

the postseason, but Wesleyan dominated the first half of the game from the first drive. J.C. French hit Micah Smith three times for 39 yards in the opening drive before French completed the drive with a short rush to the end zone for the first score.

Josh Aspinwall’s 23-yard interception return for a score extended the lead to 14-0 moments later. A pair of French to J.D. Kavel connections set up the Wolves’ next score, a TD run

by Donald Conley.

Wesleyan got a 35-yard field goal off the foot of Harrison Larner in the second quarter, along with a second TD run from Conley and an interception for a TD by Kavel that covered 49 yards and built a 38-7 lead.

Kavel added another TD in the third quarter.

Grayson 49, Rockdale 3 CONYERS — After one quarter of play, Grayson’s football team led its Region 8-AAAAAAA road matchup with Rockdale County by a slim 6-3 margin.

But from that point on, it was all Rams as the Bulldogs could do little to slow down a potent Grayson offense en route to a 49-3 loss, ending their playoff chances in the process.

Grayson, the 8-AAAAAAA champion, improves to 7-2 overall and 4-0 in the region in its second season under head

Athens Academy 22, Hebron 20 ATHENS — Trailing 22-7 in the fourth quarter, Hebron Christian mounted a frantic comeback against No. 3 Athens Academy and had the ball down two points with approximately one minute left in the game.

The Lions’ comeback fell short but not before scoring 13 unanswered points in the fourth quarter in a 22-20 loss at Athens Academy on Friday night. Hebron (5-4) has a region play-in game next week.

big hitters McGee and Jada Screen. Neither team led by more than two points after the Lions took a 7-4 lead early in the set until backto-back kills from Screen capped three straight points to close out the 25-21 win.

“The big thing for us, we’ve played the last three games at home, and for us we’ve kind of had a slower start,” Hebron coach Taylor Davis said. “We initially started kind of slow at the very beginning, but we quickly got in systems, we got very comfortable and we started playing our ball. I

think that was the key today, playing our volleyball. I think that’s what relaxed us and got us focused on what was going on on the court.”

Savannah Christian (30-5) went up big in the second set, taking a 16-9 lead before Hebron tied it with seven straight points. Two came on McGee kills and a third was one of Emma Tennant’s five aces. McGee had eight of her 17 kills in the second set, powering the 25-23 victory.

The Lions never trailed in a 25-19 triumph in the third set.

“We did not expect to have that take place,” Davis said of the sweep. “Savannah Christian is an excellent team, an excellent program.

Coach (Julie) Jones and I have been competing over the last many years and she is one of the best I see.”

Screen had nine kills to back up McGee, who also had 10 digs. Katie Marrero had a pair of blocks, Abbi Luke contributed 26 assists and 10 digs and Rebeca Olariu also had 10 digs.

“Jada, Rebeca, the middles, they just stepped up in a huge way,” Davis

•From Page 10A set the tone, as the Wolves pounded out 11 hits — two each by Kerpics, Jennifer Nolan and Gracie Taylor — and put up 12 runs.

Nolan also drove in three runs, while Reece Holbrook went 1-for-2 with two RBIs. That was more than enough for Kerpics (20-2), who did not allow a hit and struck out nine with three walks in four innings of work for the win.

It was more of the same in the championship game after Prince Avenue worked its way through the elimination bracket with a win over First Presbyterian Day. Kerpics was at the center of things both at the plate and in the circle.

First, she came up big after Kerr reached and stole second to start the game by driving her in with an RBI single, the first of her two hits of the game, for a quick 1-0 Wesleyan lead in the bottom of the first.

“It’s awesome having a lead,” Kerpics said. “It makes me feel less stress, so I can have fun out there and throw it like I know how to.”

If Kerpics and the Wolves weren’t already having fun at that point, or after Kerr’s sacrifice fly in the bottom of the second that made the lead 2-0, they were after they came

to bat in the fourth.

Wesleyan cashed in on four Prince Avenue errors to score five more runs to break open the game at 7-0.

Kerr’s two-run homer was the big blow, while Holbrook, who finished the second game 2-for-3, added a sacrifice fly in the inning that essentially put the title away.

Hebron’s students, some holding brooms for the sweep, stormed the court after the clinching win in Set 3. The Lions don’t expect it to be nearly as easy Tuesday against top-ranked Mount Paran.

“If we keep the energy we had in this game, I think it will go really well (Tuesday),” McGee said.

SUWANEE — North Gwinnett advanced to the Class AAAAAAA Volleyball Final Four on Saturday with a 27-25, 25-19 and 25-23 win over visiting Newnan. The Bulldogs (38-7) used their team approach to dispatch the Cougars (25-16). North will host Walton Tuesday with a trip to the finals on the line.

“I’ll take that any day,” North coach Kristina Stinson said. “We did a great job staying calm and I’m really proud because we played so well. Our defense has come a long way.”

Unlike their Sweet 16 matchup versus South Forsyth, the Bulldogs did not fall into an early hole.

With neither team gaining a significant lead, North led 13-10, but an 8-3 run by the Cougars gave the visitors an 18-16 lead. Trading points down the stretch, North fended off three set points, eventually pulling ahead 2625. A double hit on Newnan gave the hosts and its boisterous crowd the first set 27-25.

“I think the crowd is a testament to these ladies,” Stinson said. “It was such a great atmosphere and there were students, teachers and administrators here because who these girls are on a daily basis.”

In the second set, the Cougars jumped out to a 3-0 lead but eventually the Bulldogs jumped ahead 11-10.

Senior UGA Commit Alexa Fortin then served North on a string of six straight points to increased the advantage to seven. Newnan was able to cut the lead to four on two different occasions but successive kills from Autumn Hamilton closed out the

Facing elimination, the Cougars battled North in the third set, with the lead changing six times and finally settling with the score tied at 14. Newnan strung together four points and it looked like a fourth set was possible. The Bulldogs trailed 19-23 when they sent the home crowd into a frenzy by reeling off six straight points to close out the set and match 25-23.

“This team just plays for each other,” Stinson said. “On Tuesday (against Walton) we just need to play North Gwinnett volleyball with our full team.”

Caitlin O’Farrell led the Bulldogs with 14 kills while Hamilton finished with nine.

Jill Tontillo had 11 digs while Fortin finished with four kills, 13 digs and 50 assists.

Florida responded with Evan McPherson’s 42-yard field goal early in the fourth to draw the Gators within 23-17, before Georgia came right back with a scoring drive of its own that ended with a 24-yard touchdown pass from Fromm to Terry Godwin.

Mistakes helped both teams’ cause in the first half.

Facing a fourth down at the Georgia 23, the Bulldogs appeared to have stopped the Gators after a pass from Franks fell incomplete, but linebacker Juwan Taylor was called for pass interference, giving Florida new life.

Two plays later, Franks carried the ball in from the 1, cutting Georgia’s lead to three before the Bulldogs responded with a 22-yard field goal by Blankenship for a 13-7 halftime edge.

Housing issues focus of LiveNorcross Duluth firm

named finalist for STEM award

By Curt yeomans

curt.yeomans @gwinnettdailypost.com

Norcross officials are hoping a new initiative designed to address housing affordability issues will make the city into “a home to imagine.”

The LiveNorcross program was launched earlier this year as part of Norcross’ participation in the Georgia Initiative for Community Housing. The city was one of five towns across the state that were chosen last year to identify housing challenges in their communities and come up with strategies and resources which can be used to address them.

“As Norcross grows and develops, we want to ensure our city is an attractive place to live for all who call our city home,” Norcross Mayor Craig Newton said in a letter to residents about the effort. “Our desire is that Norcross feels like home to all our residents, regardless of where they reside or if they rent, lease or own a home in our great city.”

Housing on the program for the next three years.

During that time, they will have access to housing experts at institutions and organizations such as the University of Georgia, the Georgia Department of Community Affairs and the Georgia Municipal Association.

LiveNorcross officials have taken inspiration from the city’s A Place to Imagine slogan and created A Home to Imagine as the slogan for the program, which falls under the auspices of Norcross’

Community Development department.

The program has also hosted one outreach project, a housing expo that was held recently at Summerour Middle School. Another effort it is undertaking is a survey of families who live in extended stay motels in the city. Norcross officials said there are 14 extended stay businesses in the city.

Housing experts said a sizable segment of the city’s population lives in temporary housing fa-

cilities, such as extended stay motels.

“On any given day, approximately 8 percent of the population in the city resides in highly transient housing,” Gwinnett Housing Corporation CEO Lejla Prljaca said in a statement. “We are surveying extended stay patrons to find out about their barriers to permanent housing so that we can more efficiently serve this population.”

Peachtree Corners converting ‘T’ intersection to roundabout

By Curt yeomans

curt.yeomans @gwinnettdailypost.com

The intersection of Peachtree Corners Circle and Medlock Bridge Road in Peachtree Corners is, in a way, about to come full circle.

City officials announced Wednesday that the “T” intersection which exists

where those two roads meet will be converted to a roundabout in an effort to reduce traffic backups. The new setup means drivers will be driving in semicircles — or full circles if they need to make a Uturn — to get through the intersection.

The $1.2 million project is expected to be finished by the end of next year.

“The roundabout will be a big improvement for this busy intersection, especially during rush hour,” Mayor Mike Mason said in a statement. “The pedestrian safety features are certainly timely as we expect foot traffic to increase once the city’s Town Center opens next year.”

Peachtree Corners officials said more than 25,000

vehicles pass through the intersection each day, with cars having to stop one at a time at stop signs before passing through. Converting the intersection to a roundabout is expected to permit a continuous flow of traffic through the intersection without the need for stopping unless there are backups elsewhere.

City officials said spe-

cial purpose local option sales tax funds will be used to pay for the conversion.

The city said that while the costs to convert it to an intersection with traffic lights versus converting it to a roundabout were the same, the roundabout would be less expensive to maintain.

“Roundabouts promote a continuous flow

of traffic in all directions versus a traditional traffic signal that stops at least one direction at all times,” Peachtree Corners Public Works Director Greg Ramsey said in a statement. “The roundabout allows for a greater volume of traffic through an intersection while minimizing delays, particularly during off peak hours.”

Also, siblings Charles Monroe McKnight III (Virginia) of Asheville, NC and Craig McKnight of Elk Park, NC along with a host of siblingsin-law, nieces, nephews and cousins that she loved dearly.

A memorial service will be held on Sunday, November 11 at 2pm in Gaines Chapel, Presser H

Hall on the campus of Agnes Scott College. In lieu of flowers, the family requests that contributions be made to Agnes Scott College in her memory.

The family is especially grateful for the kindness and care provided by Dennis Dougherty and Liza Faerber, as well as the people of Cordoba, Spain.

She attended one year at Virginia Intermont College, followed by some semesters at The University of South Carolina where she enjoyed many grand adventures with her best friend, Coconut.

She met and married Patrick Edward Dougherty, the love of her life, on a Tuesday morning in June of 1974. They raised their three wonderful children in Stone Mountain, Georgia. She sang in the choir and later directed the

handbell choir at Corpus Christi Catholic Church where she met many friends that she considered family. She was a beloved member of the award winning faculty services team at Agnes Scott College for almost 20 years. Ever inspired by her children, she returned to school and graduated Magna Cum Laude in 2006 from Agnes Scott College with a bachelor’s degree in Women’s Studies. She received a standing ovation from her professors, colleagues and peers as she crossed the stage. She and Patrick were married for 41 years until his death in January 2016. She lovingly cared for him through his final years while living with Lewy Body Demen-

‘Great mix of learning’ Buford art studio embraces Latino population with Spanish classes for kids

By IsaBel HugHes • isabel.hughes@gwinnettdailypost.com

H

olding a piece of felt above her head, Joana Pratt looked at the children in front of her, who sat on the edge of a makeshift stage in her Buford art studio.

“De qué color es…” Pratt asked, trailing off as one of the students shouted “white.”

Laughing, Pratt gently scolded her: “En español!”

Though Pratt’s studio, Art for Life, is usually abuzz with adults — the art studio is one of the county’s newest to offer “Artsy Parties,” or classes where participants can paint while sipping on adult beverages — on several weekday afternoons, Pratt opens her doors to children as part of her Art and Spanish for Life, a platform aimed at teaching Spanish while creating art.

Launched in Georgia 2014, the program was borne out of Pratt’s many years of teaching art and Spanish separately, the Colombian native said.

“I started teaching Spanish in the beginning because my son was in Montessori (school),” Pratt said. “One day, after two or three months, I said to the principal, ‘Hey, I can also teach art.’ She said, ‘That’s great, give me a proposal for the summer and then come to the summer (school) and see what happens.’ I went to the summer (school) and she loved me and all the kids loved me, so I started doing Spanish, art, and then I combined both.”

Though the Spanishthrough-art lessons began years ago, it’s stuck with Pratt as she and her husband, Timothy, have moved throughout the country.

Over the years, Pratt has since developed and refined her classes to include not just art, but music, dance and theater as well.

Having studied drama in college and being an artist herself, Pratt has the perfect background.

“Because of my theater background, I love being out

with the kids,” she said. “I actually found a really cool curriculum called Lango and it’s art, but they also have activities, they have characters.

Characters (equal) stories, and stories (equal) plays. It’s also music, so we dance and we use stories to teach (Spanish).”

Those stories often involve puppets, which Pratt said allows children to get comfortable speaking in Spanish.

“As a drama student and being involved in plays for a long time, I believe whatever you can do to get kids to use their imagination and express themselves with the body is the way they can learn easier,” Pratt said. “It’s not repetition or memorization or singing the same song without any emotion and it’s (perfect) because I can combine by experience and my background with the curriculum.”

As a native Spanishspeaker, Pratt’s Colombian background also allows her to connect with the children she teaches — and the parents.

“A lot of the parents are mixed, or (one) Latino and (one) American parent,” she said. “They want to keep the language with the kids but they know because (the kids) have started school, they are losing the language. The (kids) talk with Abuelita and everybody (in the family) in Spanish, but as soon as they start school, they want to only talk to them in English.”

Isabel Lemos, a parent of two of Pratt’s students, said that is exactly why she brings her students to Art for Life — and because her children love the classes.

“I found out about (the classes) because I started coming here for a friend’s birthday party and girls’ night out thing,” Lemos said. “(My

husband and I) have come for couples night and mainly painting for me, but then I found out that (Pratt) did summer Spanish classes and one thing led to another. The main reason I started (my kids) with the Spanish class is because my parents mentioned it.”

Though she and her husband are both bilingual, Lemos said she didn’t notice just how much English they spoke at home.

“I didn’t really realize it because my husband and I are both bilingual, but we were speaking more English at

home and we watch movies in English and everything,” she said. “So that’s why I brought them here — I don’t want them to lose my native language and I want them to still be able to communicate with my parents.”

Lemos said the classes have reminded her and her husband, too, to speak more Spanish at home.

“The kids love it here because they’re doing art; because it’s something fun, they (won’t) forget (the Spanish) either,” she said. “I think this is a great mix of learning

while playing.”

Since her children started with Pratt, Lemos said they’re more confident speaking Spanish outside the home, too, something Pratt said is a goal of hers.

“The conversation we have with parents is, we try to get (the students) to start feeling like it’s not just Mom or Dad who talks to them in Spanish, but it’s a language that is important and they can take different places,” Pratt said. “(We try) to make it so they See learning, Page 7c

run was Johnson’s idea, and she has accompanied high school students as they carried the torch from one location to the next.

“We think it’s totally appropriate that you receive this recognition Mayor Johnson,” Nash told the mayor during the presentation. “I love seeing the photos of the cross country teams, and there you are running with them, which is totally amazing.

“But it’s not just the work that you did with the torch run as big of a deal as that is. It’s all of the other support that you have given to the entire bicentennial approach, and if there’s a bigger cheerleader for the city of Lawrenceville and the county of Gwinnett, I don’t know who that is.”

Georgia Recreation and Park Association Executive Director Steve Card said, “This is a lady that gets it. She is certainly part of the reason why Gwinnett is one of the fastest, why Lawrenceville is one of the fastest growing cities that is sustainable in the entire Southeast.”

SUGAR HILL Former Suite Spot member wins Pinnacle Award Based out of Buford, Aaron Overhead Doors won Gwinnett Chamber’s 2018 “Fan Favorite” Pinnacle Award.

Ryan Lucia started this third location for the garage door company in Downtown Sugar Hill’s Suite Spot before expanding to his new location in Buford. Taking a leap of faith, Lucia emptied his savings and retirement fund to launch his own business.

The Suite Spot business incubator is meant just for that — helping new and small business owners in their path to success. The former City Hall building turned business incubator offers a variety of options for members. Co-working memberships start at $60 per month and include access to the general co-work area, high-speed internet and a conference room that is available upon appointment.

“I’ve always wanted to have a warehouse/office combined, but we couldn’t afford it. The Suite Spot gave us the opportunity to have a great working environment and keep our cost down until we could afford to get our own place,” Lucia said of his time at the City of Sugar Hill’s Suite Spot.

“I love the people there.

I’ve even hired people who work out of there to help me with things. The main reason it was hard to leave was because the connections you can have there.”

Before Lucia entered into his once new business endeavor, he worked in software sales for years.

Bored with taking calls and sitting behind a desk, he connected with friend Larry Conte, who owns Aaron Overhead Doors in California, to discuss Conte’s garage door business. After delving deeper into researching the garage door market place, Lucia worked with Conte to open their Gwinnett location of Aaron Overhead Doors.

Gwinnett School Nutrition Program gets Golden Radish Award

BY TREVOR MCNABOE trevor.mcnaboe @gwinnettdailypost.com

Gwinnett County Public Schools is one of 19 school districts to achieve the gold level in the annual Golden Radish Awards put on by Georgia Organics, a nonprofit organic food organization.

The Golden Radish Awards

publicly recognize districts that have the best farm-toschool nutrition programs in place (such as such as local food procurement), exposing students to new foods through taste tests and incorporating cooking and gardening activities in curriculum.

“Farm to School is a very important part of our School Nutrition Program and we

are thrilled to have it recognized once again with a Gold Level Golden Radish Award,” said Karen Hallford, GCPS director of school nutrition.

“Our Farm to School Program is more than just local food procurement. We incorporate those local foods into our menus regularly, we host taste tests for our students and support student gardening by

preparing the harvest in our kitchens so that our students can see the entire process from seed to plate.”

GCPS joins metro-Atlanta school districts Atlanta Public Schools, City Schools of Decatur, Clayton County Public Schools, Cobb County School District, DeKalb and Marietta City Schools to receive the honor.

Of all the issues on this year’s ballot, perhaps the most contentious is Amendment 4, the “victim’s rights measure” also known as Marsy’s Law. Sure, the governor’s race will be hotly contested along party lines, as will many other races downballot. But Marsy’s Law has supporters and opponents on both sides of the aisle.

Generally speaking, law-and-order conservatives seem to be in favor of the amendment. That includes friends of mine whom I greatly respect. It also enjoys support from those who have themselves been victims, which is understandable. I sympathize.

I just disagree. I voted “No” on Marsy’s Law, for several reasons.

The ballot language is vague. On the ballot, the question for Amendment 4 reads as follows: “Shall the Constitution of Georgia be amended so as to provide certain rights to victims against whom a crime has allegedly been perpetrated and allow victims to assert such rights?”

Even the summary doesn’t offer any additional detail, merely referring once again to “certain rights.”

That phrase concerns me.

If we’re going to change the state constitution, I think we’re entitled to a little more specificity. Otherwise, we’re tempted to wonder

Have you ever found yourself in an awkward situation at work?

We all have, whether it’s what to say when your colleague beats you out for a promotion or dealing with a smelly co-worker.

When LinkedIn Learning asked my business partner Elizabeth Lotardo and me to create the course Navigating Awkward Situations at Work, we polled our clients to find the most cringe-worthy moments.

We identified 13 horribly awkward situations.

Acting these out for the video course was both hilarious and excruciating. Which of these have you faced?

1. Someone beats you out for a promotion.

2. You beat someone else out for a promotion.

3. Your boss is making a mistake.

4. Someone else took credit for your work.

5. Your boss is disrespectful.

6. Office gossip.

7. You’re caught in a lie.

8. Oversharing colleagues.

9. Someone dies.

10. Breakups.

11. Office romances.

12. Personal appearance and hygiene problems.

13. Generational gaps.

Once we identified the challenging situations, we searched for the most gracious and effective approaches. We surveyed experts, we asked clients and friends, and quite candidly, we dredged up some of our own cringeworthy moments and asked ourselves, what did

weeks to continue with the cleanup there. They also expect that volunteers will soon be called to South Georgia and the Florida Panhandle in the wake of Hurricane Michael.

In addition to organizing cleanup crews from local congregations around the Southeast, church leaders in Salt Lake City have also dispatched several tractortrailer loads of supplies, including food, water and hygiene kits, to assist people suffering from the aftermath of the two devastating storms.

“It was heartbreaking to see all the damage,” Spurlock said. “But we felt blessed to get to know and work alongside the people of Wilmington. They were all so gracious and appreciative.”

What I should have said, and later, finally did say, was, “Congratulations, let me know how I can support you in your new role.” We also reenacted Elizabeth’s response when she was chosen for leadership over her peer, “I’m sure it was a tough decision. I hope I can count on your support.”

Step into the awkwardness and then move past it.

If you have to tell your coworker she smells, say it and move along.

Yes, that was actually a scenario we acted out for the course. I played the smelly one, while Elizabeth acted as the gracious co-worker, saying, “It’s not bad, but I’d want you to tell me,” then offering baby wipes and leaving.

How we found a dog named Biscuit It started out as the neighborly thing to do.

Doug and his family live up the road from the Rondarosa. We have known each other since childhood and now, in the years of our maturity, he is a wonderful neighbor, proving his Ronda helpfulness time after time.

Rich A few of those times, when I’ve had to call him for help, involved barbed wire rescued what we thought wrapped around the blades was an injured puppy that actually turned out to be of the mower. Once, we

a coyote, the very animal we try to protect our farms from. And another time – this was almost downright historic and did wind up making the front page of the newspaper – we teamed to help lower the boom on a band of crooks that had long plagued several counties.

One Saturday in midFebruary, Doug called.

“I hate to bother y’all but we’re out of town and my

mother-in-law is housesitting. Our little dog has gotten loose so if you’d keep an eye out for her, I’d appreciate it.”

When the call ended, I turned to Tink. “We have to go and look for that dog right now. Doug has been too good a neighbor. And I know from experience, it’s a terrible feeling to be gone and have something like this happen.”

On a cut-through road, about a mile away, we found the little dog that had already been discovered by a nice woman who, seeing that the dog was wearing a collar, knew something was wrong and stopped to put the dog on a spare leash she had. In the middle of the country, the nice woman was going door to door to find the dog’s home. We stopped and pointed her in the right direction and then headed back home ourselves.

Before we’d seen Doug’s dog, however, we had discovered the cutest black and white puppy, about three months old, standing guard outside a gutter pipe on vacant property. The moment I

While Pratt said the goal is to help her students develop a sense of ownership of the Spanish language and a desire to speak it on their own, she said it’s also just a practical skill to have, especially in Gwinnett, which is the only county in Georgia that is federally mandated to provide elections materials in both English and Spanish.

saw what looked to be a beagle, I said impulsively, “That dog is going home to the Rondarosa.”

If memory serves correctly, Tink rolled his eyes. For two days, I tried to entice the dog out of the drain pipe where she retreated whenever she saw our car. She scampered in, stayed firm, and barked defensively. Every time my efforts failed, I left food at the mouth of the pipe and promised to return. One morning, I grabbed a couple of biscuits from a fresh-baked batch and headed out to try once again. An ice storm was coming in a few hours and I did not want that baby shivering in water and ice.

The moment that dog smelled the Southern buttermilk biscuits, her barking ceased and she scrambled quickly out of her bunker, tail wagging, toward fresh food.

I scooped her up, carried her to the truck and said, “Well, Biscuit, you’re going to have a happy home.”

Boy, does she. The plan was for Biscuit to live outside but ice was coming

and since Tink had gone to Los Angeles, I brought her in the house – where she never left. She now weighs 28 pounds and is a beautiful example of God’s hand as an artist. She is white with a black mask across her face, freckles on her nose, and polka dots and spots perfectly spaced and painted on her body.

She’s become Tink’s best friend. Wherever he goes, she intends to follow.

When he is on the tractor or mower, she is nearby watching him, ever faithful. She often rides with him to the hardware store, feed store, or just across the Rondarosa. He rolls down her window, she puts her nose to the wind, and there they go: two best buddies riding down highways and back roads.

It is a sight to behold, one that never fails to bring a smile or a laugh to me. One lost dog led us to another and, thankfully, both had a happy ending.

As if on cue, two of Pratt’s students pushed open the studio’s door, their mother behind them saying “Vamos!” — or “Let’s go” — while the children chattered in English.

Looking at the his wife’s first students of the day, Timothy Pratt smiled.

bestbets SUNDAY 8 p.m. on CBS God Friended Me Miles (Brandon Micheal Hall) is understandably worried when he hesitates to accept a recent social-media friend suggestion and the “God” account unfriends him in the new episode “Unfriended.” The stranger in question is a young woman struggling to process her trauma in the aftermath of her sister’s death. Elsewhere, Cara (Violett Beane) reconnects with old flame Eli (Kyle Harris), while Jaya (Shazi Raja) drops a bombshell on Rakesh (Suraj

Sharma). Malik Yoba and Neal Huff guest star.

MONDAY 9 p.m. on CBS Magnum P.I. Veteran actor Ben Vereen (“Roots”) guest stars in the new episode “Death Is Only Temporary” as Henry Brown, an aging tycoon who turns to Magnum (Jay Hernandez) for help to find his long-lost love. Henry reports that the lady in question got in touch with him just recently — which seems improbable, given that everything indicates his old flame actually died 30 years ago. Meanwhile, TC and Rick (Stephen Hill, Zachary Knighton) try to help a down-on-his-luck fellow vet.

TUESDAY

8 p.m. on ABC The Conners Halloween was always a very special holiday on the original “Roseanne,” and it’s shaping up the same way on this spinoff, until a school e-mail announces that certain costumes — including Mark’s (Ames McNamara) outfit of choice — are banned, in the new episode

Sara Gilbert “There Won’t Be Blood.” That news sparks a heated debate between Dan and Darlene (John Goodman, Sara Gilbert).

Elsewhere, Jackie (Laurie Metcalf) asks Dan to vet a new guy (guest star Steve Zahn) in her life.

WEDNESDAY 7:30 a.m. on FREE Movie: Hocus Pocus Amok, amok, amok! Bette Midler, Sarah Jessica Parker and Kathy Najimy star as a trio of 17th-century witches who are accidentally summoned to the present in this ghoulish 1993 comedy, which currently

is enjoying a 25th-anniversary appreciation on Freeform. Reentering the land of the living on Halloween night in Salem, Mass., the threesome gets right to work meting out punishment for their hanging long ago.

Omri Katz, Vinessa Shaw and Thora Birch also star.

11 a.m. on AMC Movie: Halloween It’s been 40 years since Jamie Lee Curtis launched (somewhat reluctantly) her “scream queen” career starring in this low-budget but high-quality 1978 horror movie from director John Carpenter. A murderous man (Nick Castle) returns after 15 years to continue the homicidal rampage he began as a young boy and appears to have some uncanny connection to baby sitter Laurie Strode (Curtis). Donald Pleasence, Nancy Loomis and P.J. Soles co-star in what has become a genre classic.

THURSDAY 10 p.m. on NBC Law & Order: Special Victims Unit For those who work in the Special Victims Unit, coping occasionally with mind-

boggling horror goes with the job. In a new episode called “Caretaker,” however, Benson (Mariska Hargitay) and her team of detectives, along with other members of the New York Police Department, are forced to wrestle with a truly unthinkable crime after an entire family is murdered in their sleep. Sasha Alexander, Sandrine Holt, Gary Basaraba and Scott Bryce guest star; Kelli Giddish and Peter Scanavino also star.

FRIDAY 10 p.m. on BRAVO Sweet Home It took a while, but this quirky reality show — which aired its first season as “Sweet Home Oklahoma” — finally returns after an extended hiatus for Season 2, which follows Oklahoma City designer Jennifer Welch and her team as they transform living spaces throughout their state — including the one occupied by Jennifer’s bestie, Angela “Pumps” Sullivan, a fan favorite from the first season.

Jennifer’s also still “happily unmarried” to her congenial exhubby, Josh Welch.

SATURDAY 8 p.m. on HALL Movie: Christmas Joy Ambitious market researcher Joy Holbrook (Danielle Panabaker, “The Flash”) is forced to rush home to North Carolina after her aunt is hospitalized.

Her homecoming unexpectedly reunites Joy with Ben Andrews (Matthew Long, “Timeless”), an old crush who is now the hospital administrator. When Joy volunteers to take over from her injured relative to plan the Cookie Crawl, an annual walking tour of homes, Ben steps up to help, realizing Joy has no idea how much that task entails.
