Family Promise has seen drop in donations

BY CURT YEOMANS curt.yeomans@gwinnettdailypost.com

A drop of more than $200,000 in donations in one year has forced Family Promise of Gwinnett to temporarily suspend operations at a homeless shelter it operates in Lawrenceville.

Family Promise’s Board of Trustees announced the SaltLight Resource Center’s temporary closure this week in a letter to community supporters to make them aware of the organization’s financial situation.

Board of Trustees Secretary Sarah Zimmerman told the Daily Post that donations dropped from $466,234 in 2016 to $261,803 in 2017.

“We’ve just had a significant budget shortfall and we had to do something to cut our expenses back and so we have — we believe it’s just temporarily — suspended operations of the SaltLight Center,” Zimmerman said.

The shortfall in funding is having an effect across several areas of Family Promise’s operations. In addition to suspending operations at the shelter, the nonprofit is scaling back its Aftercare program and moving its offices from downtown Lawrenceville to a local church.

The closure of the SaltLight Center, even if it is temporary, is a blow to efforts

One week ago, Katie Hlavaty wasn’t going to compete in the Miss Gwinnett County 2018-19 pageant.

“I have a very crazy life with work and school and everything,” she said. “I just didn’t think it was going to be doable with my schedule, but then I was just like, ‘You know what? I really want this and it’s something that’s a priority in my life, so I’m going to make it a priority.’”

Hlavaty, a Macon native and Kennesaw State University student, said couldn’t be happier that she ultimately made competing a priority, given she was crowned the newest Miss Gwin-

Banks County teen wins agriculture scholarship

“

BY ISABEL HUGHES

I’ve always wanted to be a teacher. But I also love anything to do with agriculture, so being an (agriculture teacher), I’d still be able to come to all the shows. I’ve always loved working with kids and I have a learning disability in reading, so I want to be able to work with kids and help them out.”

isabel.hughes @gwinnettdailypost.com

Shelby Dalton, 17, knows farming is becoming a less and less viable career option.

“We are a dying breed,” said Dalton’s mother, Michele. “In our area, Jason — my husband — is the youngest farmer we have. Actually, we’re the youngest couple in Banks County that has a farm; we’re the youngest in our community that’s still farming, so it’s a dying breed.”

Yet Dalton, who recently won the Gwinnett County Livestock and Fair Association’s inaugural agricultural scholarship, a $5,000 award for students who will potentially become the agricultural leaders of the future, said she is OK with the fact that she plans to enter a declining career.

“We’ve had the family farm since my great-grandparents,” she said. “That’s all I’ve done and I love it. I’m part of the Banks County High School FFA chapter and I was in 4-H when I was in elementary and middle school, too, so when I graduate, I plan to go to North Georgia Tech

“But she has a learning disability, so she’s had to overcome that and that’s very hard, because she’s had every odd against her.

She’s had people tell her she can’t do it, and we’ve been through the stages of, ‘I can’t do this, I’m dumb, I can’t read, how am I going to be a teacher?’ to ‘I can do this.’”

is important for food and (agriculture) research is really important. So this year, we realized the least we could do is offer a scholarship, so we sat down and talked and got with the state of Georgia’s agricultural fair association to see what we could do.”

Freeman said the Gwinnett association modified the application some — applicants were required to write an essay on the topic of the importance of agricultural education and be an active participant in a local 4-H, FFA or other agriculture-related organization — and came up with this year’s offer of $5,000.

“We wanted to offer as much as we could,” he said. “Anything that we can do to encourage younger generations to come up and stay with the farming and agriculture is what we want.”

DCCC adds Bourdeaux Construction begins on to its list of top candidates widening of Cruse Road The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee is increasing its aim on the target that it put on the 7th Congressional District seat last year, adding Democrat Carolyn Bourdeaux Carolyn to a list of Bourdeaux candidates in what the group considers top-tier races.

Bourdeaux is now part of the DCCC’s Red to Blue Program, which focuses on supporting candidates who the committee feels have a high chance of flipping Republican-held seats in Congress in November.

“A teacher and public servant, Carolyn Bourdeaux has never sat on the sidelines in the face of a problem, and now is no different,” DCCC Chairman Ben Ray Lujan said in a statement. “It is clear that Carolyn has put together a strong, people-driven campaign, and her impressive finish in the competitive primary showed she has what it takes to give the people of Georgia’s 7th Congressional District a real voice in Congress.”

By virtue of being added to the program, Bourdeaux will receive organizational and fundraising assistance from the DCCC. Staff resources, candidate training and strategic guidance will also be offered to Bourdeaux’s camp, according to her campaign.

“Our district is ready for a leader who will always put our needs first,” Bourdeaux said. “I am ready to fight for quality, affordable health care, a world-class public education system, and a government that is

Parkinson’s meds likely not related to cirrhosis Dear Dr. roaCH: My dad recently passed away as a result of cirrhosis of the liver. He also had Parkinson’s disease for 10 years. Several other people we know who have Parkinson’s also have cirrhosis. Is it possible that his Parkinson’s medication could have caused the cirrhosis? My dad was 78. He did drink beer up until about 10 years ago, mainly socially and nothing real extensive.

He was a little overweight, probably by 30 or 40 pounds.

The medication that he was on was carbidopa/levodopa.

It just seems like it would be too much of a coincidence that there are several people with the exact circumstances as my dad. — E.S. anSWer: I am sorry to hear about your dad passing.

Carbidopa/levodopa (Sinemet) is a common, well-established treatment for Parkinson’s disease. While it’s impossible to say with certainty in any given person, carbidopa/levodopa is almost never associated with serious liver damage, so cirrhosis related to this drug would be exceedingly unlikely.

In your dad’s case, it’s much more likely that he had fatty liver disease, which is associated with being overweight (and especially in people with diabetes, if your dad had that). This is a much more likely cause of cirrhosis, in my opinion. Although he may not have consumed a lot of beer, any alcohol increases the risk of liver damage in a person who already has some liver problem, including fatty liver.

The only definitive treatment for fatty liver is a better diet and weight loss (and, of course, alcohol abstinence, at least in people with abnormal liver enzymes by blood testing). A diet of mostly plants with little meat, almost no refined sugar or processed carbohydrates, and with nuts and whole grains, can help control diabetes and foster weight loss, which can sometimes reverse the damage to the liver.

Parkinson’s disease and cirrhosis both are common, and it’s not too much of a coincidence to see several people with that combination.

Dear Dr. roaCH: I recently opened up some stored tuna that my son had saved for me. He loves to hunt his own food. When I ate it, I realized that when he had gone to Alaska, he had not only hunted tuna but also black bear. He had used the black bear grease to cure the tuna. I was mortified that he had used a protected animal to preserve his tuna. I reluctantly ate it anyway. Now, I am worried about my health.

Will anything happen to me healthwise because I have eaten the grease from a black bear from Alaska? The bear was wild, so could it have had a disease, like rabies? I’m sure it has never been vaccinated. — Anon. anSWer: Black bears are hunted in many states, and although it is regulated in Alaska, they are not a protected species under the Endangered Species Act. Black bears are hunted for both sport and meat.

The major health risk from consuming bear meat is trichinella, a muscle parasite.

The meat must be heated to a high temperature to be sure of killing the parasite. Grease from the bear should not have trichinella risk.

Pregnancy news is tinged with loss Dear amy: My husband and I just found out that I am pregnant.

We weren’t planning this, but now that we’re over the shock we are very happy. This will be the first grandchild for both of our families, and we know our parents are going to be thrilled.

However, I’m nervous about telling my husband’s brother and his wife. They have been trying to have a child for more than five years.

They’ve suffered through fertility testing and IVF, as well as a late-term miscarriage. It’s been incredibly painful for them and for my husband’s whole family. Their last round of IVF ended only a few months ago, without success.

I know that they will be happy for us, because they are incredibly kind and loving people. But I also know that this will bring up a lot of difficult feelings for them.

How can we be sensitive to them in announcing and talking about our pregnancy?

— Worried Dear WorrieD: You are already sensitive to your in-laws’ situation and are kindly concerned about them. But if you deliver hugs and sympathy sobs along with your joyful news, this couple will feel condescended to and exposed. I think this news is best not delivered in person, where the couple

I recently became aware of the term “elder orphan,” which describes someone in your circumstance.

While I don’t particularly love this term, this phenomenon has been recognized because it is evermore-common, and social media is helping people to connect. Consider joining the “Elder Orphans” Facebook group (facebook. com/groups/elderorphans) to meet others who share this status and to communicate about ways to support one another.

Dear amy: I love your column, and read it every day. I got a chuckle out of the letter from “Upset,” whose ex-boyfriend surprised her by coming to work at her workplace.

Several years ago, I went into the office, which thankfully I didn’t do very often since I was outside sales, and the new coworker was my exhusband!

Everyone thought it was hilarious! I said it was fine with me and never said a word about his work ethic.

True to form, he was gone in less than three months. Problem solved!

Nash will not be the only person on the board with some sort of tie to Gwinnett.

One of Cagle’s two appointees, Teddy Russell, is president of Sugar Hill-based Russell Landscape Group. The other is North American Properties President Mark Toro, whose firm is working on the Revel mixed-use redevelopment project at the Infinite Energy Center.

Among the other appointments, Deal picked Georgia Power Director of Corporate Communication Charlie Sutlive to serve as the ATL Board’s chairman and Ralston also appointed outgoing state Rep. Erl

Ehrhart, who will join the board after his legislative term ends in January.

“Georgia is a destination for all types of industries and people from all walks of life to come and enjoy the prosperity of our state,” Deal said in a statement. “By 2040, the metro Atlanta area is projected to add another 2.5 million residents and the ATL is a significant step towards providing a coordinated, streamlined and unified approach to prepare for the future of metro Atlanta and the surrounding communities.

“The ATL board members will work to ensure that our modes of transit and mobility are worthy of the No. 1 state for business and I look forward to their work to provide new options for Georgians to get to jobs, community activities and homes to spend time with family more quickly and efficiently.”

One southeastern state that expanded Medicaid, Kentucky, has seen its percentage of people without coverage fall from 14.3 percent in 2013 to 5.4 percent in 2017. Georgia’s elected leaders have opted not to expand the state’s Medicaid program under the Affordable Care Act, saying the move would be too costly.

About 17 percent of Americans were uninsured in 2010, the year the ACA was enacted.

The Census numbers are considered the gold stan-

dard for tracking who has health insurance because the survey samples are so large, Kaiser Health News reported.

Georgia was one of 14 states that saw a rise in its uninsured rate last year. The uninsured rate fell in three states — California, New York and Louisiana.

Critics of the ACA said the report revealed the law’s flaws, KHN reported. The report “is another reminder that Obamacare has priced insurance out of the reach of millions of working families,” Marie Fishpaw and Doug Badger of the Heritage Foundation said in a statement Wednesday.

The news isn’t all bad on the donations front, however.

Zimmerman said donations are up this year. Between Jan. 1 and the beginning of this month, Family Promise received $262,922, which means the organization is already ahead of its total for all of last year.

A big part of that is due to increases in the amount of money coming in from fundraisers, grants and individual contributions.

Grant funding for this year already totals $64,049 — more than $30,000 above the 2017 total — while individual contributions are also above last year’s total, with $41,696 having already come in this year.

Meanwhile, at $91,100, the amount come in from fundraisers so far this year is $688 below the 2017 total. There are two fundraising events, a golf tournament and a 5K race, scheduled to take place this fall, which will take this year’s total higher.

“We feel like things are looking up, but we’ve been hit by this cash flow window that has become a challenge for us,” Zimmerman said.

There are some donation categories that are still far below their 2017 totals, including corporate donations, which, at about $16,186 so far this year, are less than half of what they were last year. Donations from church congregations are also nearly $13,000 away from reaching the 2017 total.

Right now, the biggest opportunities for community to support Family Promise will be the upcoming fundraising events.

The first is the Family Promise Golf Tournament at Reunion Country Club in Hoschton on Oct. 15, and the other is the Ordner 5K at Lions Club Park on Oct. 20. Information about both events is available on familypromisegwinnett.org. An Eventbrite for the 5K can be found at bit.ly/2CWW6or.

world&nation World Typhoon slams Philippines as Mangkhut claims first victims

Days of flooding ahead in the Carolinas

By Jason hanna, Faith KaRiMi and steve alMasy CNN

At least two people have been killed by Typhoon Mangkhut, known locally as Ompong, which slammed into the Philippines early Saturday morning, bringing ferocious gale-force winds and pounding rains.

Both victims were women, killed when a raindrenched hillside collapsed on them, according to the French news agency AFP. Mangkhut, the strongest storm of 2018 so far, made landfall on the northern tip of the island of Luzon at about 1:40 a.m. local time.

When it crossed land, Mangkhut was packing winds of up to 165 mph, 75 mph stronger than Hurricane Florence that hit North Carolina.

Tropical Storm Florence’s relentless rain is flooding parts of the Carolinas and promises even more for days, officials said Saturday, a day after it landed as a hurricane and left at least eight people dead — including a baby.

The issues prompted North Carolina to tell drivers coming down Interstate 95 from Virginia to go around — the entire state.

The state wants motorists to go west to Tennessee and take Interstate 75 into Georgia.

“The one thing I want to prevent is thousands of people stranded on our interstates or U.S. routes,” said state Transportation Secretary Jim Trogdan.

Officials warned the flooding was only just starting.

may be days of flooding for some communities.

Serious flooding is expected throughout the two states — and some rivers may not crest for another three to five days.

Florence crashed ashore Friday morning in North Carolina as a Category 1 hurricane, and it has wiped out power to about 796,000 customers in that state and South Carolina.

It has trapped people in flooded homes as citizen swift-water rescue teams from out of state join local emergency professionals around the clock to try and

bring them to safety.

Key developments • Florence’s location: By 2 p.m. Saturday, Florence’s center was 50 miles west of Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, with maximum sustained winds of 45 mph.

It was moving west at 3 mph, the National Weather Service said. The storm will dump rain in the Carolinas through the weekend before reaching the Ohio Valley.

• Winds: Florence’s tropical-storm-force winds (at least 39 mph) extend up to 150 miles from its center.

• No electricity: About 760,000 customers are with-

out power in North Carolina, emergency officials said.

In South Carolina, some 36,000 customers are without power, officials said.

• Trapped and rescued: In hard-hit New Bern, N.C., where 4,300 homes have been damaged, rescuers have taken more than 400 people from homes surrounded by rising waters, and about 100 others are awaiting rescue, Mayor Dana Outlaw said Saturday morning. In nearby Onslow County, three U.S. Coast Guard helicopters were helping with rescue missions Saturday, officials said.

• Much flooding to come: By storm’s end, up to 40 inches of rain will have fallen in parts of North Carolina and far northeastern South Carolina, the National Hurricane Center said.

Some other parts of South Carolina could see rainfall totals of up to 15 inches, forecasters said. Florence “will produce catastrophic flooding over parts of North and South Carolina for some time,” NOAA official Steve Goldstein said.

• Record rainfall: Florence has dumped more than 30 inches of rain in Swansboro, N.C., as of Saturday morning, breaking an all-time record for rainfall from a tropical system in the state. The previous record of 24.06 inches was set during Hurricane Floyd in 1999.

PeoPle Bieber, Baldwin got their marriage license in L.A. Will wedding bells for Justin Bieber and Hailey Baldwin be ringing soon?

Bieber and Baldwin were spotted by photographers at a courthouse in Los Angeles on Thursday.

The pair, who got engaged in July, were there to obtain their wedding license, a source close to the couple tells CNN. Baldwin recently told The Cut that she has hired a wedding planner and has picked a designer to make a custom wedding gown. She also dropped some hints about their upcoming ceremony.

“I think having it in the woods would be so beautiful,” she said. “My sister will be my bridesmaid. I was hers last year. And maybe Justin’s little sister as a flower girl. Is 10 too old?”

If you do suspect your dog is sick because of exposure to the river, Colasuonno said you can help vets confirm whether the water made them sick by taking a sample of their vomit.

The symptoms, he said, set in anywhere from one hour to 12 hours later. He said you should take your pet to the veterinarian immediately if you suspect they are sick.

Domino’s Pizza is going to try a new take on the term “dinner theater” with the opening of its new location in Suwanee.

The new Domino’s store at 4369 Suwanee Dam Road features the chain’s new Pizza Theater concept, but it’s not as dramatic as it sounds. There will be no one holding a human skull while quoting Shakespeare or anything like that.

But the store, which opened Sept. 5, won’t be like the traditional Domino’s store layout, either.

What it does have is dine-in seating, free Wi-Fi, screens in the lobby area where carryout customers can track the progress of their orders and an open viewing area where customers can watch pizzas being made. There will also be a chalkboard that customers can draw on

Suwanee area and are excited about the opportunity to serve its residents,” Suwanee Domino’s franchise owner Michael Orcutt said.

“We have a deeply experienced team of folks who live and work in Suwanee and they are eager to offer our delicious products, exceptional service and innovative ordering technology to the community.”

While his Suwanee store is new, Orcutt is a familiar face at Domino’s. He owns 107 Domino’s stores in Georgia, Alabama and South Carolina, and he began his association with the pizza chain 45 years ago as a delivery driver.

The restaurant is also looking for new employees.

The chain said full-time and part-time positions are available at the restaurant.

Anyone who is interested can visit jobs.dominos. com.

The dinein seating area at the new Domino’s Pizza on Suwanee Dam Road is seen in this photo.

CONYERS — It’s not that Brookwood boys coach Ben Dehnke didn’t think his two top runners were incapable of trying to make impressive individual performances at the 2018 Gwinnett County Cross Country Championships.

It’s just that he and the Broncos preferred to take a more team-oriented approach to the race, one that paid off with winning the team title Saturday at the Georgia International Horse Park.

Will Bray and Luke McNeil did fare well, placing sixth and seventh respectively in the individual race.

However, no one was going to catch Peachtree Ridge’s Chase Condra, who successfully defended his individual county title with a time of 16:08.02, though Grayson’s Chris Cherono and Archer’s Myles Collins tried, posing a

Another game, another easy win for third-ranked Georgia.

This time, the victim was Middle Tennessee State, which saw the Bulldogs (3-0) explode for 42 first-half points, easing to a 49-7 victory to stay unbeaten on the year.

Quarterbacks Jake Fromm and Justin Fields shared the offensive spotlight and combined for a successful afternoon.

Fromm completed 10 of 12 passes for 128 yards and three touchdowns, while Fields connected on 6 of 8 attempts for 71 yards and a touchdown. The freshman also collected his first rushing score on a 15-yard run before turning the game over to freshman walk-on Matthew Downing to start the fourth.

Five different receivers found the end zone for the Bulldogs, with Tyler Simmons (a 56-yard run), Jeremiah Holloman, and Jayson Stanley tallying their first collegiate scores.

Bulldog junior Elijah Holyfield led all rushers with eight carries for 100 yards, the first 100-yard game of his career.

Quarterback Brent Stockstill endured a tough afternoon but was still the biggest offensive performer for MTSU (1-2), including a 41-yard touchdown pass to Patrick Smith for the Blue Raiders’ only score. MTSU’s all-time leading passer completed 19 of 29 passes for 138 yards and the one score before coming out of the game early in the fourth.

Most of the damage by the Bulldogs occurred in the first half.

Georgia went into the locker room up 42-7, outgaining the Blue Raiders 382205. Five different players scored for the Bulldogs.

Hardman accounted for two scores, first on a 5-yard pass from Fromm and later on a 70-yard punt return to put Georgia up 28-0 midway through the second quarter.

Pickett helps Pitt top Tech Field level Media Pittsburgh’s Kenny Pickett threw for 197 yards and Qadree Ollison rushed for 91 yards and two touchdowns to lead the Panthers to a 24-19 win over Georgia Tech in the Atlantic Coast Conference opener Saturday at Heinz Field.

Pickett, a sophomore making his fourth career start, completed 16 of 23 passes with one interception. Ollison carried 17 times and scored on runs of 31 and 8 yards. Rafael Araujo-Lopez had six receptions for 45 yards and Taysir Mack had four catches for 95 yards for the Panthers (2-1, 1-0 ACC) Georgia Tech (1-2, 0-1) was led by quarterback TaQuon Marshall, who ran 28 times

for 103 yards and two touchdowns. He was 6-for-15 passing for 66 yards and had one interception. Fullback Jordan Mason rushed 10 times for 94 yards.

Pitt bounced back from last week’s 51-6 loss to Penn State. The Panthers improved to 8-5 against Georgia Tech.

Pitt had two takeaways, Phillipie Motley’s first career interception and a fumble recovery

by Rashad Weaver, his NCAA-leading third of the season.

The Panthers dominated the first half and took a 21-0 lead into the locker room.

Ollison opened the scored with a 31-yard run at the 8:36 mark.

PREP FOOTBALL ROUNDUP

Mustangs stay unbeaten vs. Shiloh From staFF reports SNELLVILLE — Meadowcreek’s Jason Carrera and the rest of the Mustangs were, to say the least, perturbed at the mention this week of the length of time it’s been since the program last beat Shiloh.

Carrera, standing on Shiloh’s field, said it had been 19 years since Meadowcreek beat Shiloh. It fact, it’s been 19 meetings, dating back to a 1990 win.

Regardless, Carrera and this Meadowcreek team has no interest in what happened nearly three decades ago.

That new frame of mind showed in the Mustangs’ hard-earned 21-17 win Friday at Shiloh.

Javion Johnson ran for 178 yards on 30 carries, while Quincy Bonner ran for one touchdown and threw for another — a 65-yard scoring strike to Savion Hall — as the Mustangs (4-0) become one of only two remaining undefeated teams in Gwinnett County.

Ras Johnson had a TD run for Shiloh (1-3), while the Generals also got a touchdown pass from Vince Goffney to Antonio Meeks.

Parkview 31, Tift Co. 28 TIFTON — Parkview’s comeback kids struck again Friday night and this time, the Tift County Blue Devils were their victims.

Two weeks after making up 21 points against Lowndes, No. 5 state-ranked Parkview pulled out a 31-28 victory at Brodie Field, scoring 14 points in the final 4:06 of the game after trailing by 11 points at halftime.

The Panthers (3-0) also had to survive a near-miracle from the Blue Devils (3-2).

Parkview scored on a 1-yard run by Malik Washington with 4:06 remaining, then added a two-point conversion on a Washington pass to C.J. Daniels to pull within 28-25.

After recovering an onside kick, the Panthers needed just four plays before C.J. Brown ran the ball in from the 9 at the 3:04 mark. An extra-point kick attempt went awry, but the visitors led, 31-28.

Parkview then had to survive a fumble while trying to run out the clock, and escaped when a lastminute Tift field goal attempt missed.

Jordan Williams completed 11 of 20 attempts for 152 yards. Brown ran for 86 yards on 14 tries, one for a touchdown. Daniels had 56 receiving yards and Washington had 48.

The Panthers limited Tift to 48 second half yards.

Archer 37, Norcross 0 NORCROSS — Archer vaulted to an early lead and the Tigers roared to a 37-0 win at Norcross in a nonregion game.

It was the second game in a row that Archer has shut out its opponent, while Norcross succumbed to a team in the top-10 for the second straight week.

The defense for Archer (3-1) held Norcross to just 95 total yards, including a stifling run defense that limited Norcross (1-3) to 24 yards on the ground.

The Tigers also got 21 points directly or indirectly off special teams, including a a 76-yard kickoff return by Andrew Booth and a 33-yard punt return by Emmanuel Michel.

Arrcher also sacked Blue Devils quarterback Louis Williams five times, including two by Colby Wooden and another by Solomon Zubairu, which ended up as a safety.

Randy Cochran and Jamal Janvier each had an interception for Norcross.

Buford 54, Newton 27 BUFORD — Buford has been one of the state’s most dominant teams in the smaller classifications for more than a decade. The Wolves showed on Friday

night they can hang with the state’s largest classification schools.

The Wolves, ranked No. 3 in Class AAAAA, routed Class AAAAAAA’s Newton 54-27 on Friday at Tom Riden Stadium. Newton (2-2) has been a perennial playoff team for the last five seasons.

Buford’s defense had interceptions from Amari Wansley, Jalen Huff and Elijah Turner, while Jackson Powell and Jalar Holley had a sack each, and Holley and Dom Maggio combined for a tackle for loss. Jamaal Singleton added a safety just for good measure.

Derrian Brown, one of the state’s top running back recruits, rushed for 198 yards and two touchdowns. Brown has rushed for 150-plus in four-straight games this season. Brown’s backup, Turner, was just as impressive. The junior had 152 yards rushing, three touchdowns and an interception on defense.

Berkmar 17, Clarkston 0 DECATUR — Two weeks removed from the high of snapping a 47-game losing streak, Berkmar looked to jump back in the win column after running into a proverbial wall in last week’s lopsided loss to Washington.

Fortunately, a struggling Clarkston team resembled more of a speed bump for the Patriots as they cruised to a 17-0 win Friday at Avondale Stadium.

Done Henry led the Patriots (2-2) running game with 84 yards and a TD on 10 carries, while Johnathan Wiley ran for 41 yards and a score on nine carries.

The Patriots’ defense was stout, recording three sacks and forcing four turnovers.

Grayson 21, Westlake 15 ATLANTA — Struggling to find any rhythm offensively, Grayson had to rely on big plays and a stout defensive effort for a 21-15 win over Westlake on Friday.

The Rams (3-1) got touchdown catches from Kenyon Jackson on consecutive offensive plays in the first half on the way to a 21-12 lead at the break, but it was three takeaways and a couple of stops on fourth down by the defense which helped the lead hold up.

With under two minutes to play, Westlake (2-2) picked up a first down to move into Grayson territory. But a bad snap put the Lions in fourthand-long, and Kevin Harris came through with a key sack to ice the game.

J’koro Jones finished the game 13 of 21 for 190 yards and two touchdowns. The two scores were Jackson’s only catches of the game as Josh Stinson also added eight catches for 76 yards.

Jonathan Halyard had 71 yards on 14 carries to lead the rushing attack.

Dacula 40, Central Gwinnett 0 DACULA — Things looked like they went from bad to worse for Dacula’s football team late in the third quarter Friday night.

Facing a third-and-35, quarterback Jarrett Jenkins was in the grasp of a Central Gwinnett defender and headed to the turf. But the junior managed to dump off a pass to Trenton Jones, who did the rest.

The speedy running back not only converted the 35 yards, he doubled it for a 70-yard touchdown run that turned a close game into a blowout. The Falcons reeled off two more quick TDs after that and posted a 40-6 victory over the visiting Black Knights on Homecoming night.

Jones’ catch and run was part of a big night — he scored on a 64-yard run on Dacula’s (2-2) first snap and added a third TD with an 11yard run early in the fourth quarter. He had 16 rushes for 150 yards and finished with 220 all-purpose yards thanks to the game’s most memorable play.

Central (1-3) managed only 87 rushing yards, but that number was skewed by a 29-yard rush by Justin Wilkins and 49 rushing yards in the final two minutes against the Dacula backups.

The Black Knights had only two passes longer than nine yards.

A bunch of negative plays were attributed to Dacula noseguard Addison Daniels, who had two sacks, two tackles for losses and a fumble recovery.

Lanier 17, Clarke Central 14 ATHENS — Lanier senior Isaiah Smith blocked a field goal attempt in the first quarter, which senior Kevonte Polk picked up and ran 71 yards untouched to the end zone to tie the game and ignite the Longhorns in their 17-14 win over Clarke Central on Friday at Death Valley.

Lanier (2-2) found a way to escape with a road win against the Gladiators (3-2) behind backup quarterback Bryce Satterfield and the offense, which took care of the ball throughout and rode the defense to victory.

Zach Charles accounted for 84 yards of total offense, while linebackers Kameron Brown and Phillip Webb were all over the field Friday night, leading a suffocating Longhorns defense that held Clarke Central’s excellent running back duo of O’Brien Barnett and Jonathan Sewell to just 64 yards combined on 20 carries.

Wesleyan 48, Our Lady of Mercy 0 FAYETTEVILLE — After starting the season with three tough non-region games, Wesleyan’s football team finally got in the win column with an impressive 48-0 win at Our Lady of Mercy on Friday night.

Andrew Lore posted career highs with 76 yards rushing and two touchdowns, while freshman quarterback J.C. French threw for two touchdowns and ran for two more.

Meanwhile, the Wolves (1-3) defense held the Bobcats (0-4) to just 48 yards of total offense to claim their first win of the season in the Region 5-A opener for both teams.

GAC 42, Thomson 14 THOMSON — No. 7 Greater Atlanta Christian used its efficient passing game to cruise past No. 10 Thomson 42-14 at The Brickyard in non-region football Friday night.

The Spartans (2-2) have reached the semifinals the past four seasons, including two state championship appearances, between Class AA and AAA. Its tradition of success showed on the road, especially through the air as Josh Rose, Jackson Hardy and Deymon Fleming Jr. combined for 280 passing yards and three touchdowns.

Rose went 10 for 14 for 156 yards, while Jackson Hardy went 8 for 13 for 116. They connected with Ty James nine times for 160 yards and a score and kept Greater Atlanta Christian’s offense on the field for much of the game, resulting in 27 first downs and no punts.

Walton 27, North Gwinnett 24 MARIETTA — The athletic abilities of University of Georgia football commit Dominick Blaylock are already well known and well chronicled four games into his senior swan song with Walton.

Against North Gwinnett on Friday night, Blaylock contributed statistics in all three offensive categories.

Blaylock carried the ball 11 times for 55 yards, caught five passes for 50 yards, threw a 40-yard pass and came up with a few crucial fourth-down conversions.

He also scored Walton’s game-winning touchdown with 32 seconds left in the game and lifted the No. 3

Raiders to a 27-24 win over No. 4 North Gwinnett.

While Tyler Goodson found the end zone twice, he was held to 24 yards on 11 carries. North Gwinnett was held to fewer than 100 yards rushing by Walton’s defense, but J.R. Martin completed 17 passes for 185 yards.

McEachern 35, Collins Hill 13 POWDER SPRINGS — With a 6-0 lead in the second quarter, things were looking good for the Collins Hill High School football team.

Against the McEachern Indians, the Collins Hill running game was clicking and its defense was playing stingy. It seemed like, for the first time this season, the game was going to go the Eagles’ way.

And then McEachern’s offense put its foot on the gas. Collins Hill’s defense couldn’t contain the duo of Paris Brown and Carlos Delrio-Wilson in the second half, and the Indians coasted to a 35-13 home victory at Walter Cantrell Stadium.

Delrio-Wilson sliced up the Eagles (1-2) defense, completing 17 of 23 passes for 223 yards and a pair of touchdowns.

West Virginia commit Jared Bartlett came up with two sacks and five tackles for losses for the Eagles, and the unit also got sacks from Lamar Hardrick and David Reyes. Richard Ransom recovered a fumble.

The Eagles led late in the first half thanks to long drives that were capped off by a pair of field goals from Eli Marshbank. The junior connected on kicks from 27 and 36 yards out to give Collins Hill a 6-0 lead.

Collins Hill rushed for 285 yards as a team on 48 carries, good enough for a per-carry average of 5.9 yards. Isaiah Love paced the team with 112 yards on 13 carries, while DeAngelo Oliver added 77 yards on 17 carries.

West Forsyth 28, Peachtree Ridge 7 SUWANEE — For the second week in a row, penalties and turnovers doomed Peachtree Ridge.

West Forsyth earned its first win of the season Friday, capitalizing on the Lions mistakes for a 28-7 victory at Peachtree Ridge.

The Lions had 60 yards in penalties in the first half and 89 yards of offense.

Crisp Co. 21, South Gwinnett 6 CORDELE — South Gwinnett could not cash in on numerous opportunities in a 21-6 loss at Crisp County on Friday night.

The Comets (1-3) got a strong defensive effort which allowed only one touchdown.

However, the offense committed five turnovers, two of which wound up as TDs for the Cougars (2-3), and failed to convert on several trips into the red zone, which leaves South headed back to the drawing board for next week’s home game against Heritage.

Cory Johnson provided South’s only points on a 14-yard TD reception from quarterback Tre Truitt in the first quarter, which gave the Comets an early 6-0 lead before things got away from them.

Commerce 56, Providence Christian 0 COMMERCE — Providence Christian had to wait out a lightning delay, and then had to deal with the thunder that No. 10 stateranked Commerce dished out in a 56-0 loss in Region 8-A play on Friday.

After a two-hour weather delay to start the game, the Storm (2-2) defense held tough most of the evening, keeping the game scoreless after one quarter and trailing 21-0 at the half.

But the offense managed less than 50 total yards, and the defense wore down in the second half despite seven tackles from Jordan van den Berg.

Almiron’s brace helps Atlanta cruise past Rapids Field level Media Miguel Almiron had two goals and an assist, and Julian Gressel added two assists as Atlanta United moved into first place in the Eastern Conference with a 3-0 victory over the Colorado Rapids on Saturday afternoon at Dick’s Sporting Goods Park in Commerce City, Colo.

Brad Guzan had three saves in registering his seventh shutout for the Five Stripes (17-5-6, 57 points)

who leapfrogged the New York Red Bulls (17-7-4, 55) into the top spot in the race for the Supporters’ Shield.

Both teams have six games remaining, including a Sept.

30 showdown at Red Bull Arena.

Tim Howard stopped three shots for Colorado (6-16-6, 24), which was shut out for the fourth straight game. The Rapids have been outscored 13-0 in their last four matches after going 2-0-1 in the previous three games.

Almiron had a brace in the first 19 minutes as Atlanta United easily broke down Colorado’s defense with counters. The first came in the 10th minute off a long crossing pass from the right side of the 18-yard box from Gressel into the middle of the box, where Almiron tapped a shot past Howard.

Almiron’s second goal came at the end of a twoon-one down the middle of the field with MLS goal scoring leader Josef Martinez, who unselfishly passed

the ball around defender Kortne Ford to a wide-open Almiron. The Paraguayan national then fired a shot into the top far corner of the net for his 11th goal of the season.

The Five Stripes made it 3-0 in the 37th minute when Almiron hit Gressel with an outlet pass. Gressel then connected with Hector Villaba with another crossing pass into the middle of the box, and Villaba redirected the ball past Howard for his fifth goal of the season.

Trump’s right to protect us from ICC WASHINGTON — Should an unaccountable United Nations court, created by a treaty to which the United States is not a signatory, and that the Senate has not ratified, be allowed to investigate, try and imprison American citizens?

Unfortunately, this is no longer a theoretical question. In November, the chief prosecutor of the International Criminal Court at The Hague, Fatou Bensouda, announced she was seeking a formal investigation into alleged war crimes committed by U.S. military forces and CIA officers in Afghanistan. Bensouda — a Gambian lawyer who is answerable to no government or institution — claims unbridled power to investigate, charge Marc and prosecute American Thiessen citizens, no matter what the U.S. government says. A pretrial chamber of the court, made up of judges from Hungary, France and Benin, reportedly will approve her request in the coming days.

Who gave these foreign magistrates the right to try U.S. citizens, whose government never assented to the court’s jurisdiction through our own democratic institutions? No one. And, yet, they are preparing to exercise this supranational power for the first time.

That will not happen if the Trump administration has anything to say about it. In a speech this week to the Federalist Society, national security adviser John Bolton delivered a stark warning to the ICC: “If the court comes after us … this administration will fight back to protect American constitutionalism, our sovereignty, and our citizens. No committee of foreign nations will tell us how to govern ourselves and defend our freedom.” Should the court act against U.S. citizens, Bolton said, the United States will bar ICC judges and prosecutors from entering the country, sanction their funds in the U.S. financial system and prosecute them in the American criminal-justice system.

I know something about the ICC, because I was present at its creation. In 1998, as a staff member for the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, I attended the Rome conference where the treaty was negotiated. The committee’s chairman, Sen. Jesse Helms, R-N.C., warned that, unless checks were placed on the ICC prosecutor’s unfettered discretion to prosecute U.S. citizens — including a U.N. Security Council “screen” that would permit the United States to veto cases going forward — the Rome treaty would be “dead on arrival” in the Senate.

When those protections were rejected, Helms introduced the “American Servicemembers’ Protection Act” to bar U.S. cooperation with the ICC and to punish the court for any efforts to prosecute Americans. The measure was approved in 2002 by a bipartisan 75-19 vote.

So not only has the Senate not ratified the ICC treaty, it has explicitly authorized the president to use “all means necessary” — including military force — to shield American citizens from ICC prosecution.

We were told back then that all of this was unnecessary, and that the idea a rogue ICC prosecutor would ever go after Americans was ridiculous. The court would focus on grievous human-rights abuses by the world’s tyrants, not on democracies with robust and transparent legal systems capable of policing their own citizens. That was a lie.

Not only is the ICC threatening Americans, it has our democratic ally, Israel, in its crosshairs. In 2015, Bensouda opened a preliminary investigation of Israel for actions defending itself against Palestinian terrorist attacks in the West Bank and Gaza — despite the fact that the court has no jurisdiction because Israel is not a party to the treaty, and because Palestinian territories cannot be a “state party” to the treaty considering they are not a “state.” In May, the Palestinian Authority’s foreign minister, Riyad al-Maliki, traveled to The Hague to hand over a criminal referral against Israel and to urge the court to indict and prosecute Israeli officials.

The ICC is not just a threat to U.S. citizens and our democratic allies — it is a hindrance to democratic change. Since the end of the Cold War, almost every peaceful transition from dictatorship to democracy has involved some form of amnesty. The existence of the ICC makes it more difficult to convince dictators to step down, because the option of safety in exile has effectively been eliminated. Without a credible guarantee that they will remain unmolested abroad, dictators may well decide they are better off holed up in their palaces. The lesson to tyrants such as Venezuela’s Nicol s Maduro, Nicaragua’s Daniel Ortega, or Iran’s ayatollahs is clear: If the people rise up, it is safer to fire on the crowds than to flee.

By taking on the ICC, the Trump administration is not just protecting U.S. citizens and American sovereignty — it is striking a blow for democracy across the world.

Celebrating my grandson’s life This week marks the 10th anniversary of the loss of our oldest grandson, Zachary Earl Wansley. Zack was 20 at the time he collapsed and died while training for the Atlanta Marathon.

Running was not a new thing for Zack. He grew up running. He was captain of his high school cross country team. His dad was a coach in the sport and his brother, Nick, is currently a cross country coach himself.

He was a true scholar-athlete, a junior at Georgia Tech and a proud and unrepentant Yellow Jacket in a family of Bulldogs who could more than hold his own with a bunch of woof-woofers.

Only a few months before tragedy befell us, Zack and I took a trip to Yankee Stadium and Fenway Park in Boston where we were treated like royalty by the local fans when they discovered we had traveled up from Georgia to see their beloved baseball teams play.

In Boston, a guy who seemed to function as the group leader of the row on which we were seated, had everybody between us and the aisle stand up so we could leave first after the game and receive high-fives as we departed. An unforgettable

never tease about Georgia Tech again. It hurt too much. That drew a response from Tech fans saying that would not be Zack’s wishes. On his behalf, they said they could dish it out as well as take it and to bring it on. That was pure class.

Maybe it was no coincidence Dick that Tech upset Georgia that Yarbrough year in Athens, of all places.

Is it possible that God is not a experience.

Bulldog after all?

My grandsons are big, I don’t know about other strapping guys who know not columnists and their readers, to expect a handshake from but I feel a very special and their grandfather. Only hugs. personal relationship with you.

Whether that embarrasses We have laughed together and them or not is irrelevant. I hug. cried together. You have fussed My last contact with Zack at me when you thought I came as he was leaving our needed it and praised me when house. He stuck out his hand to you thought I had earned it. say goodbye, remembered the You have reminded me that rules and we had a hug. That my words can have an impact. hug will last me a lifetime.

But so can yours.

I either can’t or won’t deal I recently received a letter with the details of the day we from a reader in Cobb County, lost him. For some reason, Jack Harris. Last November, my mind blanks out. It is just two of his sons were killed in as well. It doesn’t change a head-on collision on Interanything. state 16 as they were on their One of the first calls I way back to Georgia Southern received was from my hero, University following their former Gov. Carl Sanders. He Thanksgiving break. He said had recently lost a grandson it had taken him nine months to leukemia. He said no one to find the right words to say should outlive their children or in response to a column I had grandchildren. I agree. I never written on that tragedy. It was expected that to happen. worth the wait.

In my first column after Mr. Harris said. “My life losing Zack, I said I could is now divided into the time

before November 26, 2017, and the time after that date. I clearly see the futility of most things over which we argue, worry, or become angered. I see situations that people fail to forgive over and instead distress over, and I say to myself, ‘Why can’t they see? None of it matters.’ I see people losing lifelong friends over political issues and minor disagreements. I see all the needless pain we cause each other, and therefore ourselves, and am at a loss as to why humans seem incapable of letting go of the smallest slight.”

Maybe you can’t grasp what he is trying to tell us because you haven’t been through what he and his family have been through and what my family and I have experienced. Life can be short, unpredictable and cruel. Don’t waste a minute of it grinding over the small stuff. Yesterday is gone and we aren’t guaranteed a tomorrow. Today is precious. Live it well and make the world just a bit better because you were here. And whatever you do, hug those you love. Always, always hug.

We should hear Kavanaugh’s history lesson They don’t teach history, at least American history, like they did when I attended public school. That’s why the recent hearings on Judge Brett Kavanaugh’s nomination to become an associate justice on the U.S. Supreme Court served as a teachable moment.

Repeatedly, Kavanaugh referenced the Federalist Papers, which were essays by the founders that expanded on the legal and moral “mortar” they were using to secure the foundation of the new nation they were creating.

In a speech last Friday to University of Illinois students, former President Obama seemed to suggest that many people no longer trust their government. That view has been confirmed in several polls, most notably a 2010 Pew Research Center poll that found “Nearly 80 percent of Americans say they can’t trust Washington and they have little faith that the massive federal bureaucracy can solve the nation’s ills.” The poll found public confidence in the federal government had sunk to one of its lowest levels in 50 years.

That may be because the federal government is doing

Cal Thomas things the founders never intended for it to do, and instead of putting itself back within the constitutional boundaries established for it, too many politicians claim government should get even bigger and do more.

We can’t say we weren’t warned of the consequences of a government that grows too big and costs too much, robbing its citizens of liberty and personal responsibility and increasing our reliance on other countries to lend us money, driving the national debt ever higher.

James Madison, writing in Federalist 14 in 1787, said, “(T)he general government is not to be charged with the whole power of making and administering laws: its jurisdiction is limited to certain enumerated objects, which concern all members

of the republic, but which are not attained by the separate provisions of any.”

Who doubts those constraints on government power and reach were long ago discarded in favor of a government that ascribes increasing amounts of power and authority to itself and when it fails to perform acquires even more, contributing to its cost and dysfunction?

In Federalist 48 Madison wrote, “It will not be denied that power is of an encroaching nature and that it ought to be effectually restrained from passing the limits assigned to it.”

Today there are few limits, and politicians are mostly fine with that because government has become an extension of their careers with accompanying benefits unavailable to most Americans. Perhaps if those benefits were reduced, many politicians who stay for decades would term limit themselves in accordance with the wishes of the founders, as George Washington did when he set the example by voluntarily leaving the presidency after two terms.

Writing his opinion on the constitutionality of a National

Bank in 1791, Thomas Jefferson stressed what he and the other founders intended concerning the role of the federal government, which became the Tenth Amendment to the Constitution: “I consider the foundation of the Constitution as laid on this ground that ‘all powers not delegated to the United States, by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the states, are reserved to the states or to the people.’ To take a single step beyond the boundaries thus specially drawn around the powers of Congress, is to take possession of a boundless field of power, no longer susceptible of any definition.”

Finally, there is this truism from Jefferson: “I own I am not a friend to a very energetic government. It is always oppressive.”

Brett Kavanaugh gave us a history lesson. It would do the country a great benefit to learn that history and to embrace it in our schools and especially in our government, asking our fellow citizens to do more for themselves and to expect less from their government.

CULTIVATED GROWTH As student numbers continue to rise, Gwinnett schools are finding ways to cope, thrive

BY TREVOR MCNABOE trevor.mcnaboe@gwinnettdailypost.com

There’s a line — “If you build it, they will come” — that is inspired by a very similar line from the film “Field of Dreams,” but that concept may be working in reverse for Gwinnett County Public Schools.

The students keep coming to the district so the school system has to keep building new spaces to accommodate them.

It speaks to an ongoing issue district officials have been dealing with: enrollment, capacity and forecasting Gwinnett County Public Schools population.

As the largest school system in Georgia and continuously growing, Gwinnett’s school sys-

tem focuses on ensuring issues such as overcrowding don’t take away from instructional learning.

It’s a balancing act that will continue with the county, already estimated to have more than 900,000 residents and expected to add another 600,000 residents by 2040.

As the district has tried to build new facilities or expand existing ones to keep up with the growth, temporary alternatives such as trailers — also sometimes called “modular classrooms” — have been needed as well.

Capacity The latest Gwinnett County Public Schools figures released Tuesday show the district is techni-

cally over capacity. The district has a capacity of 178,150 students, but its most recent number count puts the student population at 179,252.

Steve Flynt, GCPS associate superintendent of school improvement and operations, said the school system uses a specific formula to determine each school’s capacity with a combination of square footage and amount of instructional units.

The district classifies instruction units as classrooms or places where instruction or learning takes place. It can include rooms such as computer labs, regular classrooms See CAPACITY, Page 5C

BY THE NUMBERS Gwinnett County Public Schools released its most recent numbers on enrollment across the district.

Osborne students’ battle summary becomes history A Revolutionary War battle summary recently written by Osborne Middle School eighth-grade students is a permanent fixture at the Georgia State Capitol.

GCPS announced the summary of the Battle of Kettle Creek, a skirmish in Wilkes County, was made into a plaque.

Students were asked to write the summary by Steve Fanczi, a parent of three former Osborne Middle students and the executive director for the Georgia Building Authority. Fanczi is responsible for the management of facilities in the Capitol Hill Complex, including the Capitol building and Liberty Plaza.

The plaque is located in Liberty Plaza, across the street from the capitol

Gwinnett students named National Merit Scholarship semifinalists Sixty-four Gwinnett County Public Schools seniors were named 2019 National Merit Scholarship Program semifinalists in an announcement by the district Wednesday.

The students, from 14 GCPS high schools, are part of approximately 16,000 students from across the nation to be named semifinalists.

The 64 seniors were chosen based on their college entrance exam scores and are competing with other semifinalists from around the nation for some 7,500 National Merit scholarships, worth more than $31 million.

Approximately 1.6 million students in more than 22,000 high schools entered the competition last school year as juniors by taking the 2017 Preliminary SAT/National Merit Scholarship Qualifying Test, which served as the initial screening for program entrants. National Merit semifinalists are the highest-scoring entrants in each state.

A semifinalist must have an outstanding academic record throughout high school, be endorsed and recommended by a high school official, write an essay, and earn SAT scores that confirm the student’s earlier performance on the qualifying test. is A student’s academic record, participation in school and community activities, demonstrated leadership abilities, and honors and awards received are taken into consideration for awarding National Merit Scholarships.

Recipients of the National Merit Scholarship will be named in the spring.

Good News from Schools appears in the Gwinnett Daily Post’s Sunday Edition, highlighting achievements and success. Trevor McNaboe is the Gwinnett Daily Post’s education reporter. He can be reached at trevor.mcnaboe@gwinnettdailypost. com.

SUWANEE Author Nic Stone to speak at library Nic Stone, the author of the New York Times bestseller “Dear Martin,” will speak at the Suwanee Library at 7 p.m. Oct. 11.

The program is free and open to the public. The first 30 teens through the door will receive a free book. The book will also be available for purchase and signing.

Stone is a native of Atlanta and a Spelman College graduate. After working extensively in teen mentoring and living in Israel for a few years, she returned to the United States to write full time.

“Dear Martin” is loosely based on a series of true events involving the shooting deaths of unarmed black teenagers. Shaken by the various responses to these incidents — and to the pro-justice movement that sprang up as a result — Stone began the project in an attempt to examine current affairs through the lens of Martin Luther King Jr.’s teachings.

The program is part of North Georgia Teen Reads, which was created to promote collaboration between neighboring library systems.

The Suwanee branch of the Gwinnett County Public Library is located at 361 Main St.

Capacity

•From Page 1C and fine arts rooms.

“Overall, you’re looking at capacity in an educational setting.

Each one of our schools has exceptions with its programs or students and their individual needs,” Flynt said. “(Career and Technical Education) capacities would vary as well as special education programs require a different number of students and capacity numbers.

The schools with the largest capacities are Cooper Elementary School (1,625), North Gwinnett Middle School (2,200) and Peachtree Ridge High School (3,050).

Trailers One of the ways the district balances yearly changes and fluctuations in population across the different clusters is through trailers. Flynt said the district has seen continuous growth going as high as an increase in 7,000 students, but traditionally increasing between 1,000 and 1,500 students each year.

“The use of the trailers has been very effective when we may see growth in the county,” Flynt said. “We have a lot of students inside the county that move around

to schools in the district as well as people moving in.”

Overall, the district has 517 trailers spread across its 140 institutions, all of which are owned outright by the district.

The capacity of a trailer can fluctuate into the low 30s based on the furniture in the rooms.

The school system breaks down their trailers into two categories — single and double trailers.

Trailers are not just used for educational instruction, but can also be used as meeting space or storage for some of the school district’s pro-

grams.

“We kinda balance the use of trailers because they can be an effective use of locations and programs,” Flynt said.

“Education-wise, they are used for overcrowding but can also be used for different programs. They can be used for a school’s JROTC program or storage for equipment.”

Trailers have different uses for schools, but district officials try to keep them in the same area.

“We use so many over the years that from year to year you may move to different schools,” Flynt said. “We try to take it to

locations that are nearby as not to leave an excess of trailers at a certain place.”

Because GCPS owns all of its trailers the only cost the district incurs is moving a trailer to another location.

“The cost associated with moving a trailer to a school can vary between $7,000 and $10,000,” GCPS spokesman Bernard Watson said. “This is dependent on the size of the trailer, power requirements, site conditions and where the trailer is being delivered to and from.”

Future plans The school system has talked about relief student populations. Most recently, the opening of Paul Duke STEM High School took pressure off nearby Norcross High School by giving students the option to take a more STEMfocused curriculum.

Norcross, which has a student population of 3,103 in the latest count, is down by more than 600 students from its 2017-18 enrollment of 3,778.

This year, the district is putting the finishing touches on a new health sciences theme school in the Meadowcreek cluster.

According to school officials, the new high school is estimated to be approximately 300,000 square feet and have a capacity of 1,500.

Meadowcreek High School places an emphasis on academies, marketing the school as “Meadowcreek U” with five different programs, including the School of

Health and Hospitality.

School district spokesman Bernard Watson said the school’s health science academy has 407 students currently enrolled in it.

Because of the focus and similarities between the new theme school and Meadowcreek’s health and hospitality pathway, students in the Meadowcreek cluster will have priority at the new school before enrollment is opened to other students in the district.

The district is not stopping with future plans to address student population growth.

Mill Creek High School has the largest student population in the district with 3,725 students in GCPS’ latest count. The school has a capacity of 2,800 and also has the second most trailers in the district — 41.

As part of a referendum that will be voted on in November, the school board included the construction of a new cluster high school in the Mill Creek area as part of a projects list for a $350 million general obligation bond.

“We knew the Mill Creek growth is ongoing and are looking at the long-range expectations,” Flynt said. “It’s problematic to do an exact forecast for an individual school, but rather we do long-range projections for school clusters and age ranges.”

School officials have not specified, if the referendum should pass, whether the school will be another theme high school or if it will be a completely new cluster, but said it will be an asset to the district.

“First and foremost, the need to have capacity for student housing needs and being fiscally conservative in the areas for housing is the first component of what we’re doing,” Flynt said. “We’ve been working on options for students for many years, options for students in their interest field or real world experience. Whether its at a new school or academy high schools across all schools, we’re trying to find areas that will pique their interest and find opportunities.”

Working hard no reason to be chastised In the past year, a friend of ours has chastised both Tink and me for how much we work and the spare attention we pay to her.

The first time I received my reprimand by text, I was out-of-town, helping to take care of a loved one who was very sick and needed my full attention.

For days, I slept no more than four hours nightly, rarely stopped and took time to eat quickly one meal a day. The text, as is the way of these things, happened to arrive at a particularly low point when I was close to tears due to frustration and exhaustion.

I sighed. “Atticus Finch, where are you when I need you?” This was a reference to the famed fictional character of “To Kill A Mocking-

Ronda Rich bird” who scolded his daughter, Scout, when she dared to criticize someone.

“Don’t judge a man until you’ve climbed into his skin and walked around in it,” he opined.

A year later, Tink was pushing hard on a deadline for a Hallmark movie when he received the same chastising text.

These kinds of words are guilt at their strongest. He was sitting in

a rocking chair on the back porch of our house where he had a view of the pastures, the crisp shade trees, the rock wall and the dogs and cats who scampered joyfully across the backyard. To write Hallmark, it helps if you live it and we are blessed that we do.

Across the creek, on the front side of the Rondarosa, I sat on the red painted cement porch of the house that Mama and Daddy built. I was rocking in a red and white glider that Mama bought in 1961 and that our friend, Tom Eller, had recently restored. I was on deadline with a magazine story when Tink, withered by the reprimand, forwarded the text.

Deadlines for any working person can be challenging. For those of

us who write and must rely on the hand of God and the kindness of a muse to inspire, deadlines can drive you straight to the killing field. We both can tell you that sometimes the harder we try to create, the quicker the words retreat to a hidden place and lock themselves away.

The text sidetracked us both. As I rocked gently in the glider where I once spent a summer reading “Gone With The Wind” and on which Mama and I sat many a time and shelled peas or strung green beans from the garden, the spirit of my parents came to visit.

I thought of Daddy’s rough, calloused hands and how Mama, always in an apron with pockets, would tote her pan of dishwater out every

summer morning and water her flowers with it.

It suddenly came to mind that these hardworking people only socialized on Sunday but it was an all day socializing. Sunday school, church, Sunday dinner with either friends or family and an afternoon spent visiting loved one and those who were growing long in years.

Every prayer Daddy said aloud included a humble plea of “Lord, please bless the workings of our hands.”

I come from people who worked hard, diligently, mindfully. I come from good people who loved their neighbor and were always there in a time of need. I arise from a breed of people who rather suffer than celebrate because you always tend to do what you know

best.

The image of Mama sweeping her porch came to mind. I could hear her saying, as oft she did, “Make hay while the sun shines.”

From a long line of poor farmers come I and I always knew that rain was the greatest enemy to a farmer who needed to gather his hay from the field.

“Mama,” I said to the image from yesterday’s memories, “you’re sure lucky that you didn’t have text messages to distract you.”

They’re worse than rain when the hay is down.

Why a good apology requires wading in their muck A good apology is a rare and treasured gift.

It’s a treasure for both the giver and the receiver because a true apology includes a transformational moment of empathy. Consider this common workplace challenge: Someone takes credit for your idea at a meeting. They realize it afterwards, or someone helps them realize it. They decide to apologize. Most apologies are one of three types: 1. The brush-off apology The person knows they need to apologize. But they’d actually prefer to avoid it. So the “I’m sorry” part is very short, but the “Here’s why it’s no big deal” part is

Forget Perfect

out all the logical reasons why you shouldn’t be angry. The effect is, “I’m sorry you’re mad, let me explain why you shouldn’t be. It’s better than no apo”logy, but not by much.

2. The ‘I’m an idiot’ apology This one often follows Lisa McLeod the brush-off, but it also stands alone. If you push extended. They say things saying, “But you did steal like, “It’s just a meeting. my idea,” this person Nobody really pays atbecomes defensive and tention to who comes up defeated. They say things with what. Besides, you like, “I guess you think get credit for so many I’m just awful, I’m sorry, things.”

I can’t do anything right The intent may be here.” This deflects the good; they want to actual incident by turnapologize. But they ing it into a blanket don’t want to deal with character attack. It seems any messy feelings, like the direct opposite particularly yours. So of the logical brush-off they minimize and point apology, but make no

mistake, it springs from the same source. Instead of addressing how their actions affect you, the “I’m an idiot” apology puts their emotions front and center. The person becomes so beleaguered, harassed, criticized and defeated, they can’t possibly address your issues.

Both of the above apologies fail, because the person who was wronged feels unheard.

3. The empathy apology This one takes work.

It’s where the person who made the mistake takes the time to fully understand the impact their actions had on the other person. In the meeting example, instead of reflexively saying, “I’m sorry,” ask yourself: “What does it feel like to

have someone take credit for your idea? What if it happened in front of your boss? What if it was an idea you had been working on for a while?”

Thinking it through gets you into an empathetic state.

Then, when you do apologize, ask how the other person felt and try to name their feelings.

Say something like, “I imagine you felt horrible sitting there listening to that happen.”

This critical step — validating the other person’s feelings — is missing from most apologies. Which is a shame because these moments of empathy are the transcendent moments that enable you to move on.

Many apologies are

simply an attempt to get the other person to stop being angry or sad.

People avoid naming the other person’s emotions hoping they will go away.

But the opposite happens.

They fester. People are much more willing to let go of hurt and anger when they feel seen and heard.

No one likes to deal with other people’s negative feelings, especially if they were the cause.

But the only way out of conflict is through it. If you want to move on, you have to be willing to wade through the muck.

bestbets SUNDAY 9 p.m. on PBS The Miniaturist on Masterpiece This visually stunning adaptation of Jessie Burton’s best-selling novel set in 17thcentury Amsterdam continues in the new “Part Two” of three, as Johannes (Alex Hassell), the wealthy merchant to whom Nella (Anya Taylor-Joy) has been married off, reluctantly opens up to her about his deeply held secret, then swears to be more candid with her from now on. Elsewhere, Otto (Paapa Essiedu) disappears, and Marin (Romola Garai)

reveals a startling secret all her own. Hayley Squires also stars.

9 p.m. on TNT The Last Ship In a situation laced with the bitterest of ironies, the crew of the Nathan James — a battleship fitted with the absolute latest in state-ofthe-art features — confront circumstances that have, in essence, thrust them back to World War II in respect to the military technology available to them. That means their resourcefulness and ingenuity are tested as never before as they enter a high-stakes conflict with rudimentary weapons capabilities in the new episode “Fog of War.”

MONDAY

Anya Taylor-Joy

8 p.m. on FOX Inside the Manson Cult: The Lost Tapes This new two-hour special reexamines the workings of the Charles Manson “family” from the inside-out, drawn from more than 100 hours of footage originally shot by a filmmaker who visited the Manson compound in 1969, intending to make a documentary. Years after that man’s death, Simon

Carolina, who bewitches a naive young soldier (Harry Belafonte). Adapted from a stage musical, the film airs tonight as part of the monthlong initiative “The Black Experience on Film,” along with another African-American musical, “Cabin in the Sky,” which immediately follows.

“Inside the Manson Cult: The Lost Tapes” Andrae, producer of this new special, unearthed the footage and combined it with new interviews from surviving cult members. What emerges is a completely unnerving portrait of a group of killers who appeared to be, for the most part, perfectly normal.

TUESDAY 8 p.m. on TCM Movie: Carmen Jones This 1954 reworking of Bizet’s operatic masterpiece “Carmen” boasts an electrifying, Oscarnominated turn by Dorothy Dandridge as a temptress working at a World War II parachute factory in North

WEDNESDAY 10:02 p.m. on NBC I Feel Bad Amy Poehler is an executive producer of this new comedy about a woman (Sarayu Blue, “No Tomorrow”) who appears to fulfill her various roles in life well, but passes off some of her obligations to others when she finds it necessary, whether on the home or work fronts.

Though she does indeed feel bad in a lot of circumstances, she gradually learns to accept her imperfections. The cast also includes Paul Adelstein (“Prison Break”) and Johnny Pemberton (“Son of Zorn”).

THURSDAY 9:01 p.m. on ABC Station 19 Continuing his progress as a new firefighter, Ben

(Jason George) scores an achievement that his peers celebrate in an encore of the Season 1 finale,“Not Your Hero.” The decision on who will be named 19’s new captain is delayed by the immediate need to battle a blaze in a skyscraper, leaving several lives in peril. Chandra Wilson guest stars in her “Grey’s Anatomy” role. Jaina Lee Ortiz, Grey Damon and Danielle Savre also star.

FRIDAY 9 p.m. on HGTV My Lottery Dream Home David Bromstad returns for a new season of this feel-good reality series, wherein he travels the United States to meet recent big-ticket lottery winners and help guide them as they buy their first highdollar home with their prize money. In the season premiere, David meets a Florida couple who won millions via a scratchoff ticket. Currently renters, they want a roomy home with a pool for entertaining, while their teenage daughter hopes for enough land around the place to ride horses.

SATURDAY 9 p.m. on HALL Movie: Truly, Madly, Sweetly Cupcake food truck owner Natalie (Nikki DeLoach) and Eric (Dylan Neal), a divorced single dad and finance manager, meet in San Francisco after his aunt dies and — given her longstanding fondness for Natalie’s confections — bequeaths them jointly a building that once housed a celebrated bakery.

After selling the property to split the funds turns out to be complicated, the pair decide to renovate the bakery and reopen it for business in this new 2018 romance.

According to several recent news stories — including one by the Daily Post — the Georgia State Senate has formed a committee to explore pushing back the start of school until after Labor Day. That’s a welcome development, although I’m not sure why I care.

As a newly minted empty-nester, I no longer have a dog in this particular fight. It must have something to do with my natural aversion to authoritarianism and all forms of government overreach.

As a parent of school-age children for 25 years, I watched the public schools become increasingly autocratic, secretive and unaccountable to the community, regularly making decisions about curriculum and other matters without seriously considering parents’ views (although they sometimes pretend to).

Apparently, they’re convinced they alone know best.

Emblematic of this attitude is the start date, which over the past two decades has been gradually pushed up and up and up, until classes in many districts now begin around the first week of August or earlier.

I suspect the “gradual” part has been intentional — a calculation on the part of school leaders that, if they just nudge

PET OF THE WEEK

Stewy is a 4-year-old dachshund mix who has been waiting to find his forever home for five months. He came to the Atlanta Humane Society when his owner moved and couldn’t take him along.

He’s the perfect size for an apartment at only 15 pounds, and he takes daily seizure medication to stay healthy (but don’t worry, it’s only $10 per month.) His underbite and playful personality are sure to keep you smiling, and Stewy promises to be your best friend forever.

He’s crate trained, housebroken and only chews on his toys because he’s a grade-A good boy! He’s currently living in an AHS foster home, so if you’re interested in meeting Stewy, email Kelly at kteasley@ atlantahumane.org to set up a time to meet him.
