Westmoreland won't join governor’s race

Louisiana artist embraced locally

By SARAH FAY CAMPBELL sarah@newnan.com It’s official. Lynn Westmoreland is not running for governor in 2018.

There have been rumors that the longtime Cowetan would run for governor since before he announced his retirement from Congress in January 2016. The chatter stretches back to at least 2008.

In March and April of this year, Westmoreland said in public appearances that he was still trying to decide whether or not to run.

On May 24, he and his wife Joan made it official. “After much prayer and consideration, Joan and I have decided that I will not be a candidate for governor in 2018,” Westmoreland said in a statement. “While I am humbled by the kind words and encouragement that we have received from so many over the last few months, I think the best contribution that I can make to our state is outside of elected office.”

Instead, “I look forward to doing all I can to support the Republican nominee for governor and the entire Republican ticket in 2018.”

Westmoreland’s announcement came just a day after the “Draft Westmoreland” campaign sent an email plea to Georgia Republicans. The email asked recipients to sign a petition to “Draft Westmoreland” for the governor’s race, according to The Atlanta Journal-Constitution.

A Draft Westmoreland website and Facebook page popped up in early May. By the next day, neither could be found. Westmoreland’s own website, www.lynnwestmoreland.org , was also

unavailable.

Before serving 12 years as congressman representing Coweta, first in the 8th District and then, after redistricting, in the 3rd, Westmoreland represented the area in the Georgia House of Representatives. He served 12 years in the state house, including time as House Minority leader – back in the days when Democrats controlled Georgia’s state government.

State Sen. Matt Brass, R-Newnan, who served as Westmoreland’s chief of staff, said he was a little sad, in a selfish way, to see that Westmoreland wouldn’t be running for governor.

“It’s sad to kind of see it come to an end, so to speak,” Brass said. “He’s definitely paid his dues, and he’s earned the right to kick back and relax.

So I’m happy for him.”

Declared Republican candidates for governor, so far, include Lt. Gov. Casey Cagle, Secretary of State Brian Kemp, and State Sen. Hunter Hill of Atlanta.

Democratic State Rep. Stacey Evans of Smyrna is officially running and House Minority Leader Stacey Abrams has filed paperwork to run.

By MAGGIE BOWERS maggie@newnan.com Newnan’s latest artist-in-residence, sponsored by the local ArtRez program, which offers emerging and career artists a retreat to pursue studies in downtown Newnan, seems as adaptive as her natureinspired mixed media paintings.

The artist blends in seamlessly in downtown Newnan and finds inspiration everywhere – including nearby parks and woodlands that were a part of the county long before its residents. Deedra Ludwig describes her work as “environmental,” noting that each piece she creates “captures a fragment of the landscape’s character.”

“Art has the ability to make one see things in a new light,” Ludwig said of her work. “It allows us to develop a love for places and natural objects that we may not have noticed or appreciated.”

Working at Gray Cottage in Newnan through June 12, she doesn’t simply paint a reflection of her surroundings onto the canvas, but incorporates bits of each location literally — usually by adding the very soil and plant life found in the area to the paint itself. Ludwig has been enjoying Chattahoochee Bend State Park throughout her

Bishop pens book on Cherokee Trail of Tears Testimony of Cowetan Cotter featured

Local author and historian W. Jeff Bishop’s newest book is called “Agatahi,” a Cherokee word that translates into “Witness.”

Bishop’s book is written from contemporary accounts of the removal of the Cherokees from Georgia, and one of the primary witnesses to the historical events spent much of his life in Coweta County.

William Jasper Cotter was nearly a century old when he wrote “My Autobiography” in 1917.

By that time, he had served for many years as a Methodist preacher in churches all over Georgia, including Grantville, Senoia, Turin and Newnan.

Before that, Bishop said, Cotter had been “an eyewitness to history,” both during the Civil War

and, as a young man, to the forced removal of the Cherokee Indians on what came to be known as the “Trail of Tears.”

“The book is comprised primarily of Cherokee stories of their removal,” said Bishop, a longtime president of the Trail of Tears Association’s Georgia chapter and current executive director of the Newnan-Coweta Historical Society. “But Rev. Cotter gives a unique perspective because he had a front-row seat to the events that were happening in 1838, so he is featured very prominently.”

“It would be hard to make the people of the present time understand the situation then,” said

The draw of food, music and a new alcohol ordinance continues to inspire upcoming events for downtown Newnan.

On the evening of May 23, the Newnan City Council voted to allow food trucks to participate in several activities planned for the summertime. Starting next month, Newn1 Xtra front

aNights piggybacks off the recent Tucked Away Music Festival, providing live music each Thursday between June 22 through July 13.

Each event will allow open alcohol consumption, but the addition of food trucks may also draw more visitors downtown, according to Lori Duncan, owner of Blue Fern Merchant.

Along with several other local , APRIL 26, WEDNESDAY

(PC)

business owners, the group petitioned to have several food trucks present for the NewnaNights events, along with Jazz In The Park, an event organized by the Newnan Cultural Arts Commission.

“So many people who live in this town don’t even realize that downtown Newnan exists,” she said.

Bishop said that Cotter paints a vivid portrait of the Indian Removal that few others were able to capture. “ No accou nt of t he Cherokee Removal would be complete without his testimony, I believe,” said Bishop.

“I was trying to focus mostly on Cherokee stories, Cherokee voices, because they rea lly haven’t been hea rd before, or at least not in great detail. Most of their testimony hasn’t even been transcribed by anyone.”

Cotter, however, was a crucial witness in Bishop’s view. One of the Cotter pieces in Bishop’s book follows: “The spring of 1838 op ene d mo st b e aut ifully. There was no cold weather after the first of Ma rch . Vegetation advanced without any backsets from the cold.

T he bud s bu r s t i nto leaves and blossoms; the woods were green and gay and merry with the singing birds. The Indians started to work in their fields earlier than e ve r b e fo r e . … T h a t spring you could see the smoke of their log heaps or piles of ashes where the boys had been. Fence corners and hedgerows were cleaned out. The ground was well plowed a nd t he corn pla nted better than ever before.

Soon it was knee-high and growing nicely.

“After all the warning and with the soldiers in their midst, the inevita-

ble day appointed found the Indians at work in their houses and in their fields. It is remembered as well as if it had been seen yesterday, that two or three dropped their hoes and ran as fast as they could when they saw the soldiers coming into the field. After that they made no effort to get out of the way. The men handled them gently, but picked them up in the road, in the field, a ny where t hey fou nd them, part of a family at a time, and carried them to the post…

“I had a part in all this tragic scene. Col. W. J. Howard, the quartermaster, boarded with us and kept his office in the Harlan house. There were no army wagons and teams, and he hired what he needed and gave father the privilege of furnishing some of the supplies for the post. Horses and oxen did most of t he work. We had a yoke, strong and true, and they walked nearly as fast as horses. I was the driver.

“In hauling the stuff from the cabins, a file of six or more men went with me as a guard. They forced open the doors and put the poor, meager household effects into the wagons, sometimes the stuff of two or three families at one load. After following me a mile or two the guards galloped away, leaving me in worse danger than any one else; for if there had been an Indian hiding out, I would have been the one to suffer.

“But few of the Indians ever went back to their homes. We turned t he cow s a nd c a lve s toget her, as t hey had been apart a day or two.

Chickens, cats, and dogs all ran away when they

saw us. Pon ies under the shade trees fighting the flies with the noise of their bells; the cows a nd ca lves low i ng to each other; the poor dogs howling for their owners; the open doors of the cabins as we left them – to have seen it all would have melted to tenderness a heart of stone.

And in contrast there was a beautiful crop of corn and beans.”

Cotter eventually settled in Coweta County a nd ser ved for m a ny years in local churches before dying just shy of the century mark, in January, 1922. “Some of our children and grandchildren were living here,” Cotter said. “The people received us kindly…”

The Times-Herald Xtra

Pay to play You never know where the next great idea will pop up. It could be sprouting right now in Overtornea, Sweden, where city councilman Per-Erik Muskos has introduced a proposal that has government workers jumping for joy and taxpayers screaming in outrage.

Muskos wants to give city employees a paid hour off each week to go home and have sex. He claims subsidized sex will address two of Sweden’s most pressing problems: work-life balance and a plunging birth rate.

“We should encourage procreation,” Muskos said.

“This could be an opportunity for couples to have their own time, only for each other.”

Overtornea’s 550 municipal employees already get a paid hour off each week to engage in fitness activities, including walking and hiking. An Overtornea council member doesn’t think a roll in the hay qualifies as a fitness break.

“We don’t see this as a health-and-wellness activ-

ALEX MCRAE ity, just like gardening isn’t,” said councilperson Thomas Mortberg. “The break should be used for a walk, or going to a gym. A love act with your loved one should be done in your own free time, not during paid work hours.”

A Swedish social scientist says the idea has merit.

Sociology professor Lotta Dellve said short bursts of physical activity during office hours has many benefits. “ Th i s activ it y c ou ld include sex, why not?” she said.

It w a s not r ep or t e d how the policy would be enforced. Rumors surfaced that Sex Troopers might be hired to peek in windows to make sure workers weren’t sewing or watching “Dating Game” reruns during trips

to the love shack.

A similar progra m is already underway in neighboring Denmark, where school sex education classes now encourage k ids to make Viking babies instead of using birth control. The campaign even has a motto: “Do it for Denmark.”

You can’t make this stuff up.

This probably won’t happen in America until Bernie Sanders or Elizabeth Warren become president. But if the American private sector ever adopts such a pay-forplay policy, unemployment numbers in the Land of the Free would plummet.

Job interviews would be a lot more fun, too.

“Good morning, Mister Smith. I’m Edward Freeble, head of human resources here at Acme Enterprises.

I’ll be interviewing you for our job opening.” “ G o o d t o me et you , buddy. Just call me Jimmy.”

“Cer tainly. Well, uh, Jimmy, we advertised for an experienced drill-press operator. Please give me some of your background.”

“Fine. I’ll be upfront with you and admit I ain’t never run a drill press. I’m handy with a Skil saw, though.

But I see y’all are paying people to take off an hour every week to go have sex,

Food trucks in Newnan

and if that’s a qualification, I’m your man. Not bragging, but I’m like a sex machine.”

“Yes, well, having sex on company time is one of our most desired benefits, but we hire based on your work experience. And where a drill press is concerned you don’t have any.”

“So what? A job’s a job. I can pick it up in a minute.

And gettin’ paid to have sex? Well, that wo u ld m a ke m e t h e best worker you ever seen.

Guaranteed.”

“I appreciate your enthus i a s m , J i m m y. We ’ v e received similar responses from the other 231 applicants that showed up in the last 10 minutes.”

“I ain’t surprised. If gettin’ paid to have sex don’t bring your high-quality workers running, nothing will.”

“But Jimmy, your job qualifications still leave something to be desi…”

“Don’t worry, buddy— I’m what they call a quick learner. And I can start this morning. Just let me call the old lady and tell her to ditch that ratty bathrobe and get ready for a real special lunch hour.”

From page 1 “Events like these can really help showcase what we have to offer.”

Four different food trucks would be parked on East Court Square during the NewnaNights events and on Greenville Street for the upcoming Jazz In The Park event in June. Further information about the trucks will be coming shortly, as the vendors are still being confirmed, according to Duncan.

In her remarks to the council, Duncan said the trucks aren’t designed to compete with local restaurants, but would encourage more people to come downtown and experience a fun event.

On June 9, Jazz In The Park will be held at Greenville Street Park, featuring “Bumpin’ The Mango” as the featured musical act. The free event begins at 8 p.m. and will allow alcohol, blankets and picnic baskets.

Council Member Rhodes Shell inquired about the feasibility of creating a dog park in Newnan – specifically the Harper’s Farm Property on Sprayberry Road where the city acquired ownership of the land.

Shell said the area would be ideal based upon its location to the proposed LINC trail system.

Councilmember Dustin Koritko also mentioned hearing interest from citizens about the possibility of the park.

In other business, the Council: • Approved an artist agreement, along with light and sound agreement for Jazz in the Park.

Send your email comments to: alexmmcrae@ gmail.com

• Accepted three new streets from the Woodbury Estates subdivision into Newnan city street system.

• Accepted an extension of Newnan Lakes Drive into the city street system.

Fireworks ignite inside grocery store, prompting evacuation ATLANTA (AP) — Rattled shoppers at an Atlanta grocery store had to abandon their carts and flee after someone ignited a indoor fireworks display, causing some to fear a shooter was inside the building.

Someone ignited the display inside the Publix store on the city’s south side about 5 p.m. Thursday, setting off the sprinkler system and causing everyone inside to be evacuated.

“People heard the fireworks going off and some people thought it was an

active shooter,” Sgt. Cortez Stafford said Friday. “With all those fireworks going off, it put off a lot of smoke and almost immediately filled up the store.”

No one suffered serious injuries, but one woman was taken to a hospital with minor injuries, Stafford said. “She was more shaken up than anything,” he said.

A photo from the fire department showed a massive pile of charred fireworks in one of the aisles. The display, about 3 feet to 4 feet high, included

• Passed a lease agreement between the city of Newnan and the Boys and Girls Club of Metro Atlanta for the Howard Warner Building.

• Considered application for providing funds from the 2017 grant cycle to acquire, construct and install playground equipment at the Howard Warner Building.

sparklers and a variety of other fireworks.

The blaze activated a sprinkler head above the display, which put out most of the fire. Fire crews then doused hot spots, Stafford said.

“The Publix employees did a really good job getting people out of the store to the best of their ability - kudos to them,” he said.

A group of teenagers is suspected of setting off the fireworks, fire officials said.

• Accepted a request from Sharon Ellison / Rocky Hill Community to use the Lynch Park pool’s back parking lot area to set up pit smokers to cook for the Rocky Hill Reunion scheduled on Saturday, July 29 from 11 a.m.-7 p.m. at Lynch Pavilion and Park. **** Clay Neely: clay@newnan.com, @clayneely

‘Big Bang Theory’ star shares her wisdom in ‘Girling Up’

By LYNN ELBER, AP Television Writer Mayim Bialik plays smart on TV’s “The Big Ba ng Theor y ” a nd is smart in real life, with a Ph.D. in neuroscience as evidence.

She joins her intelligence with experience in “Girling Up: How to be Strong, Smart and Spectacular,” a wide-ranging handbook on navigating the emotional and physical hurdles of growing up. It’s as forthright as Bialik herself is in conversation, with comic book-style graphics adding a lively touch.

The b o ok ’s r o ot s s t em f r om “ The B i g Bang Theory” episode in which her character, A my, a nd b oy f r iend, Sheldon (Jim Parsons), lo s e t he i r v i r g i n it y.

That prompted Bialik to write an essay for her website, Grok Nation, on what it’s like to be a late bloomer and “how complicated intimacy can be on TV and in real life,” she said.

Her discussion of modesty, absent religion or politics, caught the eye of publisher Philomel Books and “Girling Up” followed, said Bialik, who recently signed for two more years of “Big Bang Theory.” She’s also a mother of two boys, ages 8 and 11.

In an interview with The Associated Press, Bialik discussed what’s covered in the book , wh ich w a s r ev iewe d by a school counselor, an obstetrician and a neuropsychologist.

The AP: In “Girling Up,” you write that you considered it important to write a holistic guide.

Beyond calling on your own experience, what research was required?

Bialik: I don’t mean to sound arrogant at all, but there wasn’t a lot of research because I literally wrote the book of my life. The science and the nutrition, all that stuff, all the stuff about learning and coping, that was gathered from the perspective of someone who’s been in therapy a long time and has had to do a lot of introspection. And I was trained as a scientist.

AP: What ages is it intended for?

Bialik: We’re saying 11 to 18 , and anyone who loves someone in that age bracket.

AP: When you were that age, where did you get information such as this?

Bialik: I didn’t. My mother was raised in a very religious household, her parents were

immigrants from Eastern Europe. We didn’t talk about these things.

I learned about it as I got older. I was an exceptionally late bloomer. I don’t necessarily think there wa s a problem with that, but I didn’t want to present that as the only way to be in this book. But it took me a long time to understand and come to terms with a lot of aspects of being female.

A P : The book tells readers there are different ways to look, to be educated, to get jobs, even how one’s breasts may develop. Why was it important to you to present such a range of possibilities?

Bialik: Because I’ve a lways b e en the one that’s different. I always felt a tremendous sense of s h a me a r ou nd it .

I’m still different as an adult. My sons know

that I’m a boyish female.

They know that I like boxing and sports cars more than their father (laughs). ... I want girls who a re l i ke th at to know that it’s OK. And I want girls who are not like that to know it’s OK. AP: What do you consider the key takeaways from your book?

Bialik: The first thing is knowing the basics of how your body works a nd how the bra in works. You are in charge of your body. ... The notion of understanding the broader concept of what is being female is very important. And a realistic set of expectations of what your life can look like. This is not a book that’s very sparkly and shiny and says you can do anything you want as long as you put your mind to it. I didn’t like those books when I
