Alpharetta one of top Ashley Forsyth deputies: kills family, self Madison suburbs in Georgia Man Wife, children Affair dating site hacked, user info could leak By JONATHAN COPSEY jonathan@appenmediagroup.com ALPHARETTA, Ga. – One of the world’s leading websites for “affair-dating,” AshleyMadison.com, was the victim of hackers who claim they have stolen the information of millions of subscribers. This information could be names, credit-card information, photos and personal information. The city of Alpharetta was listed as being home to one of the site’s largest user bases in Georgia. Last year, the website ranked Alpharetta 10th in the top-10 suburbs in Atlanta for affairs. According to AshleyMadison.com founder and CEO Noel Biderman, affluence is a common element found in most cities on the top 10-list. "The proclivity to cheat often goes hand-inhand with opportunity,” he said. “Those with discretionary income and freedom to travel are even more likely to stray.” With 37 million members around the world,

The hackers allegedly threatened to release photos and personal information of millions of members if the company did not shut down. The hackers said the website was a target due to possibly activity stemming from charging users to delete personal information and then not actually removing the data from their servers.

dead in apparent murder-suicide

By JONATHAN COPSEY jonathan@appenmediagroup.com FORSYTH COUNTY, Ga. – Four members of a Suwanee family are dead after an apparent murder-suicide July 22. Forsyth County Sheriff Deputies say Matthew Fields, 32, killed his estranged wife, Rebecca Manning, 37, and her two children, ages 8 and 9. He also shot her father, Jerry Manning, 75, before turning the gun on himself. Jerry Manning is listed as being in critical condition and the only survivor of the incident. Deputies say they were called out to the Old Atlanta Road residence in Suwanee about 6 a.m. by Fields’ mother, who called 911 after

she said her son called her to say he killed his family. Rebecca was still alive when deputies arrived. Sheriff Duane Piper said in a news conference Wednesday that his department was “familiar” with the residence, but would not elaborate. Media reports say Fields had an extensive criminal history, although not violent. Deputies went out to the home Tuesday night for a domestic violence call. Rebecca Manning allegedly said “nothing’s going on,” when deputies asked her about the call, according to a police report. Fields left for the night. At some point he allegedly returned with a gun. It is unclear if Fields is Manning’s husband or boyfriend. Both boys attended Johns Creek Elementary School. A motive for the shooting is unclear, deputies said.

ALPHARETTA, Ga. – On July 22, about 20 veterans began singing “America (My Country, ’Tis of Thee)” while a summer thunderstorm rumbled in the distance at The American Legion Post 201 in Alpharetta. The man leading the singing, Pfc. Dale E. Jones, was the reason for the gathering. Jones, a 100-year-old World War II veteran, was being honored by members of the Military Order of the Purple Heart. “I’m proud that the government real-

In addition, he received three battle stars for combat participation in the Battle of the Bulge, Central Germany and the Rhineland. The veterans gathered around Jones, who was accompanied by

‘Friend’ steals $10K in furniture

ALPHARETTA, Ga. – Two people were arrested July 19 after allegedly falling asleep in a handicapped parking space. Police were called to a suspicious vehicle on Masters Way that was running and parked in a handicapped parking spot. Inside the vehicle, which had no handicap tag, police allegedly found a man and woman asleep. When police woke the couple, they reported smelling a strong odor of marijuana coming from the car. A police dog confirmed the presence of drugs in the car. The man claimed there were no drugs in the vehicle. A search allegedly yielded some joints and rolling papers. Both people were arrested for possession of marijuana. The man was also charged with a parking violation.

Bobbi Kristina Brown dies Alpharetta approves new 48Was in coma for 6 months ROSWELL, Ga. – Bobbi Kristina Brown, the only child of the late Whitney Houston and ex-husband Bobby Brown, has died. She was 22. Brown, who lived in a townhome off Holcomb Bridge Road in Roswell, was taken to a hospital Jan. 31 after a 911 call reported her unconscious in a bathtub. She never regained consciousness and had been in a medically induced coma since. In a statement, the family said, “It is hard to say goodbye. On Sunday, July 26, Bobbi Kristina Brown made her transition peacefully. The family thanks everyone for their loving thoughts and

prayers. As Bobbi Kristina would say: ‘The wind is behind me and the sun is in my face.’” Her hospitalization had been BROWN marked by repeated disputes between feuding family members. Her legally appointed conservator has sued Brown’s partner, Nick Gordon, who grew up with Brown, claiming he was violent and had taken control of Bobbi Kristina’s finances. In June, Brown was placed in hospice care. The Fulton County District Attorney’s office said they were looking into charges that may be filed in her death.

acre mixed use development 191 townhomes, 200 condos at Windward and North Point By JONATHAN COPSEY jonathan@appenmediagroup.com ALPHARETTA, Ga. - In a unanimous vote, the Alpharetta City Council voted July 27 to allow a new development called “Windward Mill,” which would bring a large, mixed-use project to Windward Parkway. Windward Mill would sit on nearly 48 acres of land bordered by Windward Parkway in the north, North Point Parkway in the east, and Morris Road in the south. It includes 31,400 square feet of retail/restaurant, 500,000 square feet of office, one 250room limited service hotel with 3,000 square feet of meeting space, 25,800 square feet of retail, 191 townhomes, 200 for-sale condominiums and 24 townhomes. It would also include a 3.7-acre park and “considerable” green space, said Alpharetta Planner Eric Graves of the project. According to staff, the new plan is a change from a development approved in 2008

that was a higher intensity plan. Townhomes would be built first, on the south of the project, as well as the infrastructure. After that, the condos and retail and offices would be built over several phases. While the site would largely be cleared of trees and brush before the first phase, the developer said the parcels not yet built would be seeded with grass and kept up until construction could begin. Windward resident Tom Miller, who opposed the development when it was first approved in 2008, approved the new plan. “This is better than the original,” Miller said. “This is a good plan.” Councilmember Donald Mitchell agreed. “This is a better plan,” he said. “This has more green space, and more consistent with what the city is trying to do.” Also at the meeting: An expanded Wire and Wood songwriters festival will occur this fall, as the council approved changing the event from a one-day, free event to a two-day, pay-for-entry event.

Georgia’s unemployment rate drops in June NORTH FULTON, Ga. - The Georgia Department of Labor announced the seasonally adjusted unemployment rate declined to 6.1 percent in June, down two-tenths of a percentage point from May. The percentage has fallen 1.2 percent since June of 2014. Georgia’s unemployment rate is still higher than the national average of 5.3 percent. The national unemployment rate also fell two-tenths of a percentage in June. “The rate dropped to its lowest point in

seven years, as the number of unemployed Georgians fell by 8,421 and our employers continued to create jobs,” said State Labor Commissioner Mark Butler. The number of jobs in Georgia increased by 2,300, one-tenth of a percentage point, in June to 4,254,000. The gains came in government, trade, transportation and warehousing, manufacturing, education and health services. Those gains were somewhat offset by losses in leisure and hospitality, professional and business services, information services and construc-

tion. In the previous three years, Georgia gained an average of 8,300 jobs in June. “As we look at the over-the-year picture, our employers created 106,000 jobs since June of last year,” said Butler. “Our job growth rate of 2.6 percent remains higher than the national rate of 2.1 percent and Georgia continues to be a national leader in job creation.” After 18 consecutive months of growth, Georgia’s labor force decreased by 12,981 to 4,761,272 in June. —Joe Parker

Jones then told the story of being wounded over 70 years ago as the group of veterans listened intently. He said he was on right-flank protection with a group of 12 as they tried to take a little village in Germany on Feb. 23, 1945, when they were ordered not to hit the ground no matter what, which he said was a hard order to obey, but they “were stupid enough to obey it.” Jones said he could hear bullets flying by before he was eventually hit beneath a rib. He thought he was dying and prayed to survive - not for his sake, he said, but for his family’s. Soon, he realized he just had the wind knocked out of him, so he proceeded to take cover in a

German foxhole, using a poncho and lighting a non-toxic “heat pill” to get himself out of shock. All 12 men covering the right flank with him that day were either wounded or killed obeying their orders, he said. Jones, who will turn 101 in the fall, also sang “Moon River” for the members of the Military Order of the Purple Heart as they thanked him for his service. “I did it as best as I could,” he joked of his singing ability after the ceremony. A resident of a Cobb County senior-living home, Jones enjoys playing cards and chess in his free time. Membership in the Military Order of the Purple Heart is open to “all persons of good moral character who are awarded the Purple Heart Medal by the government of the United States and are not dishonorably discharged.” There are currently approximately 45,300 members of the veterans’ organization across the country.

When suburbia “snapped” North Fulton sees SNAP households increase By HILLARY HUNNINGS news@appenmediagroup.com NORTH FULTON, Ga. – Beneath selfsame shrubs, slick SUVs and sprawling shops lies a shrouded reality, one rooted in the 2008 Great Recession: a suburban food-stamp surge. According to the Brookings Institution, the number of suburban households receiving SNAP, the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, increased 116 percent from 2007, at the start of the Great Recession, to 2012, compared to a 79 percent growth rate in the U.S.’s largest cities. Brookings Institution’s Metropolitan Policy Program fellow Elizabeth Kneebone said Sun Belt metro locations hit hard by the housing-market collapse and recession saw sharp increases in SNAP receipt. In metro Atlanta SNAP receipt more than doubled, upsetting any utopian suburban white-picket-fence notions. North Fulton was not immune. “Our community is known for its affluence and influence

within the metro Atlanta area as a suburban community that offers an excellent educational system, housing and Fortune 500 companies; however, suburban homelessness is one of the fasting-growing epidemics in this state,” said North Fulton Community Charities Director of Development Vonda Malbrough. “During the economic recession, both our food pantry and agency saw a huge increase in the numbers of families we served. We estimate that our office was supporting 100 families per day with a five-day-week operation.” According to U.S. Census American Community Survey Five Year estimates, from 2009 to 2013 SNAP households predominately had a faster percentage increase than total households in Alpharetta, Milton, Johns Creek and Roswell. In Alpharetta, the 2009 to 2010 total household percentage increase was 18.14. The total SNAP household percentage increase was simultaneously 18.25 percent. From 2010 to 2011 the total household percentage increase was only 3.29 percent, while SNAP households did not increase at all. But from 2011 to 2012 there was a 2.17 percent total household increase, while the

SNAP household percent increase jumped to 25.84. From 2012 to 2013 the total household increase percentage was only 0.88 percent, while SNAP households increased 26.9 percent.

percentage increase was 4.98 percent, but SNAP households saw a 168.75 percent increase. SNAP households would continue to outpace total households. 2011 to 2012 saw a 5.05 total household increase, whereas SNAP households saw a 6.98 percent increase. Total household percent increase dipped to 3.10 during 2012 to 2013, but SNAP households upped to a 40.22 percent increase.

In Johns Creek SNAP households’ percent increase completely surpassed total household percent increase from 2009 to 2013. From 2009 to 2010 the total household percentage increase was 31.32 percent, whereas the SNAP household percentage increase was 135.55 percent. During 2010 to 2011 total households increased 3.18

OPINION

Cast your vote for the UPCOMING EVENTS new Greatest Generation Golf Networking I glanced at the Facebook post and kept going. A few minutes later I went back and reread it. A couple of days later I looked it up again and reread this one simple sentence: “Every time you spend money, you're casting a vote for the kind of world you want.” That sentence - that idea seems to tie in with a column I have been tinkering with, one with a working title of something like, “Are these millennials the next greatest generation?” The basic idea is that for a variety of reasons - including necessity - I believe that millennials actually have a paradigm-changing set of values and ideals that may radically change our world - soon. Much of the catalyst of my thinking, in addition to my reading and research, comes from a recent trip to Berlin to see my daughter, who has lived there for the last year and a half. We spent a lot of time around her peers, professionals in their 20s to 30s - basically millennials. So much of their lifestyle was so foreign to me. They used clean mass transit and bikes to travel. Most didn’t own cars or homes. They shared living accommodations because they couldn’t afford not to. “Sharing” and “community” were significant and valued parts of their lives and orientations. They live frugally, eat healthy food and use public resources such as parks, lakes and events for leisure. Their entire lifestyle is tethered to a resource awareness and especially a carbon-footprint awareness. As I processed all this I started recalling interactions I’ve had with this generation here in Alpharetta and it all started coming together. In 2012 the total U.S. population was 320 million, of which the labor population was approximately 150 million. Currently millennials number approximately 95 million, or 66 percent of the labor force. That percentage will increase significantly in the near future. Millennials are more connected with each other than any generation in the history of the world. They communicate with each other instantly and often. What they support will thrive. What they oppose will not. Millennials know we have royally messed up our environment in many ways. They know that global warming is

an indisputable fact and one most likely caused by greeddriven human stewardship and politicians acting on behalf of corporate donors instead of their constituents. So millennials tend to judge and make decisions through the lens of “what is the carbon footprint of this good or service - or government policy? How efficiently are the resources involved used?” Millennials realize we have

Millennials realize we have limited resources and that we must be responsible stewards of those resources and each other. limited resources and that we must be responsible stewards of those resources and each other. If the product or service minimizes the carbon footprint, for example locally grown food, online education, or recycled consumer goods, they will buy. Large energy-squandering homes, dirty energy, gas-guzzling cars, dirty transit, genetically modified food or food that is not grown locally will not do well going forward. Companies or politicians that support or are the source of these types of goods and services will not be popular with this generation. This will show up on their P & Ls and it will show up at the voting booth. Cities that are out of touch with the values of millennials will be in trouble in the future - soon. This generation will not support urban sprawl because of the huge and unnecessary carbon footprint. Instead they will move to cities where there is clean (electric) mass transit and where they can live, work and play in one place. Instead of focusing on finding a job, they will seek out

cities that are compatible with their values and then look for jobs in that city. They will use Uber to get around or bike and share modes of transportation instead of owning them. They will expect affordable housing that is convenient to their leisure and life needs. Companies will also seek to relocate to those millennial-centric cities as well in order to help them recruit and retain employees. Education is another example of a significant component of our present economic model that this generation will turn upside down and force to change rapidly. Remember, part of what is driving this generation is that they cannot afford to consume what their parents could afford – nor do they wish to. They are not earning enough. Because of this and because of their stewardship of the environment, they will embrace online/virtual learning rapidly because it is resource-efficient, far more affordable, and has an infinitesimal smaller carbon footprint compared to today’s brick-andmortar universities. While it is unthinkable that the “experience” we associate with a college education could be on the table, I suspect that it is. Just think about that for a second. Consider the scale and scope of our current brick-and-mortar university system – the number of jobs, the amount of property tax generated, the relative “weight” of the entire system within our culture – as it is currently structured. This current model will not survive because millennial money will not be there to support it. It will be forced to change quickly and on a very large scale. The economy and distribution of wealth is a final puzzle piece in the new world of millennials. Today›s work world is already far different than that prior to the depression of 2008. This «recovery» is to a significant degree a faux recovery. Real income is flat or down. More people are working today than five years ago but so many of the jobs are marginal. Many millennials are working two or three jobs and having a hard time just getting by. The same could be said of the endangered «middle class.» The current income imbalance between corporate America, i.e. the wealthy, and everyone else will increasingly be an issue that will not

So what does rural Milton look like? I have been watching the “Preserve Rural Milton” signs for a long time now, and I have to say, it has been a long time coming. When I went to work for this newspaper in 1993, Milton was mostly Crabapple and a lot of green space with just a couple of roads. It was verdant. I would ply my trade between Roswell and Alpharetta because those were the two seats of government up here (with apologies to Mountain Park). Sometimes just to vary the routine I would take Mayfield Road to Roswell just for the pleasure of riding through Crabapple. If I really wanted to be naughty, I would conjure a reason to stop at the little antique store on the corner that belonged to Emory and Virginia Reeves to hear the latest gossip. I could count on getting an invite into their office in back where Virginia was sure to offer me a Coke – in an 8-ounce glass bottle, of course. They first came out to Crabapple in 1969 to open that little antique store. They told me what rural Milton really was all about. In those days though, Crabapple had a Vinings-like mystique about it. Real estate agents were keen to list homes for sale in Crabapple – so much so that one Alpharetta councilman complained to me that they would list homes as “Crabapple” when they were in Alpharetta. I attended the groundbreaking for White Columns and its Tom Fazio-designed golf course. I was there, too, for The Manor, now that I think about it, and interviewed Tom Watson, who designed that course. Milton has continued to thrive. I remember then-Commission Chairman Mike Kenn taking an interest in preserving Milton with the focus on Crabapple. There were many meetings with Fulton County Planning Department personnel, but

somehow a true plan remained just out of reach. Much was made of the Comprehensive Land Use Plan in Milton, but that was not a real plan. It simply designated just about all the land up there as agricultural, because that was what it was. It was farmland and subdivisions with one-acre lots. No one wanted sewer then or now. Sewer would bring “sprawl,” and nobody wanted that. No one seemed to realize then that the real definition of sprawl is development on one-acre lots. Just put in more and more curb, gutters and roads throughout Milton. No one gave much thought of throughroads, guaranteeing that the existing grid will just continue to get overloaded. Now folks are seeing what Milton can become – a oncegreen place with wall-to-wall subdivisions. What few horse farms and large estate tracts that remain will likely turn into more of the same, such is the value of the land. The Atlanta area is still slowly coming out of the 2006-08 recession, but the first area to bounce back was North Fulton, fueled mainly by Milton. The infill is well on its way now. The clock is ticking for Milton green space. Now the city is considering a Conservation Subdivision Ordinance. This allows parcels to heap the density on one part of the property with the knowledge that the undeveloped portion must remain so in perpetuity. Of course, since it is residential, it will need some sort of spray irrigation septic system since sewer is still a bad word in Milton. I heard they

already allowed the transfer of development rights from one parcel to another. Again, the one parcel can be developed more heavily than the one-acre lot minimum, but the gain is preservation of the green space. These are about the only practical ways I know of preserving rural Milton. You want to know what rural Milton would look like? That’s it. I’ve heard some say we need a comprehensive landuse plan that designates certain areas for green space. That could work as long as the people who own those parcels are agreeable. If not, there’s not a judge in Georgia that would not declare such a taking of property rights unconstitutional. I’m not a lawyer, but I have attended at least a thousand city council meetings and planning commission meetings in my time, and I have seen a lot of property litigation as a result. Judges tend to protect individual property rights, especially if the idea is for the city to take all of those rights away. Now maybe I’ve overstated the case, but nothing I’ve heard in Milton other than conservation subdivisions and transfer of development rights makes any sense. I have heard of some other ideas. One lady told me they were moving from Milton to Virginia, to a county where properties could not be subdivided more than three times. Her 10 acres in Virginia was already the result of subdivision thrice so it could never have more than one house on it. I don’t see that as much of an answer for Milton, but there it is. I want to see Milton keep as much green space as it can. I don’t live there but I still like it the way it is. The problem is it is changing faster and faster. I don’t know what the perfect solution is, so maybe it’s time to look at the best solution at hand.

ASHLEYMADISON.COM

AshleyMadison.com says that their site “is the most successful website for finding an affair and cheating partners.”

AshleyMadison data breach brings harsh truth to Alpharetta Online dating looks to be here to stay. With sites and apps such as Tinder, OK Cupid, and Match.com gaining popularity, the social world will revolve evermore around online profiles and digitized relationships. Then there is the recent mess with AshleyMadison. For those unfamiliar, AshleyMadison.com is a “dating” site that specializes in extramarital affairs. Its tagline is “Life is short, have an affair.” It was also the victim of a large hack last week, resulting in the leak of possibly every subscriber’s personal information – that’s as many as 37 million users from around the world. As luck (or bad luck?) would have it, Alpharetta is one of the largest user-bases in Georgia for profiles. I’m sure there are plenty of local residents – both men and women – who are getting nervous the world will find out about their love of affairs. Here’s why this is bad. This is a site that specializes in discreet hookups – everything from names and phone numbers to nude photos and fetishes – and to have this in the hands of people willing to release it all is a very bad thing. I would not be surprised if this is the end of AshleyMadison and her affairs. This is not going to destroy the site’s owners – they will just create

a new website under a different name. Worse, however, is the obvious breach of personal privacy. Users trusted the site to keep their private information, well, private. Photos, both nude and otherwise, are shared around the site, and user profiles list interests, fetishes, wishes and other very private information. And if these hackers can do as they claim, they can release all this information onto the internet, where it will never go away. If I were using AshleyMadison.com to have an affair, I would be scared, very scared, right now. And if I were using online dating sites, complete with personal profiles and information, I would be just as scared. What dating site will be the next victim of a breach? There is an old adage that runs: “Live your life so that you would not be worried to sell your parrot to the preacher.” Today, one should say: “Live your life as if the internet is never secure, because it is not.”

COMMUNITY SUBMISSION:

Student worries of entering high school By AARON STEPHENS Hopewell Middle School If you happen to be anything like me, you find the idea of high school to be somewhat daunting. While many students don’t confess to being worried about it, the fact is they’re uneasy because, as soon as they graduate from middle school, they will find the need to make some big choices. High school is a big transition filled with many different choices. After speaking to some

teachers I know, I was assured that there is no need to worry and they offered me some advice I’d like to share with you. If the thought of the “big” school and whether you are ready or not concerns you, STEPHENS my high school teacher source said he believes that some middle school teachers make a bigger

deal about the transition to high school than is needed. However, he also believes you have to be ready for more hands-on work in high school than you’re used to. Some other common concerns are things like, “Will I fit in?” or, “Will the work just be too much?” Understand, you are always preparing for this during middle school – specifically, when you are studying for finals, or just looking over past test papers. My teacher said one thing students neglect to do is

develop a good work ethic - if you care about your work you rarely leave something to the last minute. This becomes extremely important in high school, where your transcript is your ticket to college. Both my teacher sources agree that students need to have good habits going into high school because your habits will stick with you for the rest of your life.

North Fulton schools to see leadership changes across the area Nine schools to have new leadership in place for 2015-16 school year By CANDY WAYLOCK candy@appenmediagroup.com NORTH FULTON, Ga. – A flurry of recent personnel changes means a slew of new principals at several North Fulton schools when the school year begins Aug. 10. In some cases, new leaders will come from other area schools, creating a domino effect of changes across the area as vacancies are created and filled. With school set to start in less than two weeks, several schools will open with interim leaders until a permanent principal is hired, noted Fulton officials. During summer board meetings in June and July, promotions and resignations involving principals at nine area schools were approved. These leadership changes impacted schools primarily in the Northeast Learning Community. Schools slated to have new principals for the 2015-16 school year include Barnwell, Cogburn Woods, Lake Windward, Roswell North and State Bridge Crossing elementary

schools; Autrey Mill and Elkins Point middle schools; and Johns Creek and Chattahoochee high schools. As of the end of July, principal vacancies remained at four of the five elementary schools. Permanent principals were appointed at the middle schools and Johns Creek High School, and an interim principal is in place at Chattahoochee. Fulton school leaders say their goal of elevating personnel from within is the main reason change at one school can create openings in other schools. “One of the reasons there are so many leadership transitions in the principal ranks is because we seek to promote, whenever possible, from the pool of current leaders in that cluster,” said Ken Zeff, interim superintendent for Fulton Schools. “We believe principals have built key relationships and have developed a deep appreciation for specific community values.” Zeff acknowledges the promotions “often create a cascade of other openings in a

cluster,” as evidenced by the multitude of changes in the Northeast Learning Community. Resigning as principals at the end of the last school year were principals Norman Sauce (Barnwell ES), Bruce Fraser (Cogburn Woods ES), Tara McGee (Lake Windward ES), Gail Johnson (Johns Creek HS) and Melinda Springman (Elkins Point MS). McGee and Johnson will assume other positions within Fulton Schools. New Principals – James Zoll (Johns Creek High School) – The Fulton County Board of Education approved the hiring of James “Jimmy” Zoll at Johns Creek High following the resignation of first-year principal Gail Johnson. Zoll will be a familiar face for many Johns Creek students and families, after having spent the past 15 years in area schools.

He was the former principal of State Bridge Crossing and Wilson Creek elementary schools, and most recently the principal MARTIN at Autrey Mill Middle School, all within Johns Creek. Since coming to Fulton Schools in 1984 after graduating from the University of Georgia, Zoll spent a decade as a teacher before entering administration in 1996 as the assistant principal at College Park Elementary. In 2000 he became the principal at State Bridge Crossing Elementary, followed by five years as principal at Wilson Creek Elementary. In 2011 he was named the principal at Autrey Mill Middle. His wife, Laura, is the principal at Dolvin Elementary. Timothy Corrigan (Chattahoochee High School) – After spending more than a decade at Chattahoochee High, including eight years as the assistant principal, Timothy Corrigan was named the interim principal. He replaces former principal Tim Duncan, who was promoted to Director of Accountability for Fulton

Schools in June. A graduate of the University of Illinois (Chicago) and UGA, Corrigan began his education career with Fulton Schools in 1993 as a health and physical education teacher at Taylor Road Middle School. After stints as an assistant principal for two schools in Forsyth County, Corrigan came back to Fulton Schools in 2004 and has been at Chattahoochee since that time. James “Trey” Martin (Autrey Mill Middle School) – Trey Martin will be another familiar face for the Johns Creek community, having spent the past 11 years as principal at State Bridge Crossing Elementary. He fills the vacancy created by the promotion of former principal Jimmy Zoll to principal at Johns Creek High. Martin has been with Fulton Schools since 1996, where he spent five years as an elementary teacher at Sweet Apple and Crabapple Crossing. In 2001, he was named the assistant principal at Crabapple Crossing, leaving when he was named principal at State Bridge Crossing in 2004. Martin holds degrees from Southern Methodist University (Texas), Mercer University,

New West Roswell elementary welcomes students Aug. 10 School will house Esther Jackson ES for one year as a ‘swing school’ BY CANDY WAYLOCK candy@appenmediagroup.com ROSWELL, Ga. -- Construction on the new Ga. 9/West Roswell elementary site is nearly complete, with teachers set to begin moving into their classrooms on Aug. 4 in time for the Aug. 10 school-year opening. However, its first group of students and staff will be temporary occupants, in place for just the upcoming school year. The new West Roswell school will serve as a “swing” school during the 2015-16 school year, said Fulton Schools officials, housing Esther Jackson Elementary students for one year while that school is rebuilt on its present site off Martin Road in Roswell. “We call this process a ‘swing school’ since the school population will swing to one site during construction and then swing back to its old site when it’s completed,” explained Susan Hale, Fulton Schools spokeswoman. While this is the first time a swing school has been used

West Roswell elementary school Details

in North Fulton, the process has been used before in South Fulton and went well, according to Hale. The new West Roswell elementary school will not have a permanent name, or administration team, until Esther Jackson staff and students vacate the school. “For this one year only, the school will be called Esther Jackson Elementary and will have temporary signage,” Hale said. Once the new school’s permanent principal is announced sometime this year, a community process will begin to come up with an official name, school colors, PTA and mascot. The redistricting process to redraw lines in the Roswell area was completed last spring, with new attendance zones for elementary schools set to go into effect in August 2016. The West Roswell Area elementary school is being built through proceeds of the onecent Special Purpose Local Options Sales Tax (SPLOST) passed by voters in 2012. The total cost for the construction of both the West Roswell Area

School officials say the school is slated to come in on time and within budget, however school officials have cautioned the Fulton School Board that rising construction costs across the region may require a dip into contingency funds. Hale noted the Ga. 9 road widening project has started with a relocation of utilities lines. Once those are moved, the contractors will construct

the bus deceleration lane. The building design for the West Roswell school is one of five prototype plans used by Fulton Schools over the past 15 years for elementary schools. The school is a multistory design used to ensure the same square footage and amenities as other schools, but on a smaller parcel. Two-story elementary schools are not common in elementary schools, but the plan’s linear design, notes Hale, allows good “visual observation” for staff.

True hero serves as Old Soldiers Day parade marshal Lee Brown ‘just a kid’ hitting Omaha Beach By HATCHER HURD hatcher@appenmediagroup.colm ALPHARETTA, Ga. – Lee Brown today at 90 is a man of quiet demeanor, self-effacing with an easy smile. He’s a far cry from that tough-as-nails 20-yearold Army Ranger glaring at the photographer who snapped his picture that wound up on the 1945 cover of the U.S. military magazine Yank, which quickly went viral in 1940s’ fashion – i.e. on the wire services. Brown, who will serve as grand marshal for the 63rd Alpharetta Old Soldiers Day Parade kicking off Saturday, Aug. 1, is still active at 90 and attends Ranger reunions. “He is really getting a kick out of this. He is really excited that people are making such a fuss about him,” said his son, Phil Brown. Lee Brown was just 19 years old when he hit the beach on D-Day. It was the Rangers’ mission to climb the famous Pointe du Hoc cliffs that overlooked Omaha Beach and silence the gun emplacements there. “We had a British pilot to bring the boat in – we always had Brit to drive the boat. We got to the landing point and he dropped the ramp and said, ‘Cheerio ladies.’ And then we just ran as fast as we could to the beach,” Brown said. By the time he and his fellow members of the 5th Ranger Battalion arrived, the first Ranger units had already

secured Pointe du Hoc. So, still on the beach, Brown and the other Rangers were crouching behind what cover they could find as machine-gun fire and mortars were coming at them. “All of a sudden, I saw this man just walking down the beach toward us like he was out for a Sunday stroll. Meanwhile bullets were flying all around him and kicking up sand,” Brown said. Since Brown was attached to the battalion headquarters company, he was just a few

to get off this beach,” Brown heard Cota say. “And we did, too,” Brown said. “And that become the Ranger motto, ‘Rangers Lead the Way.’” Under Cota’s leadership, the Rangers led a breakthrough at what became known as the Vierville Gap that got the men off Omaha Beach. On D-Day-plus one, Brown and a buddy were on a reconnaissance patrol moving carefully when they suddenly saw a German poke his binoculars through a hedge. The German – it turned out he was a general – was peering so intently out his binoculars that he didn’t see the Americans. They grabbed and subdued him and brought him back to headquarters – but not before they took his Nazi ceremonial dagger and Luger pistol.

His buddy took the pistol and Brown has the dagger to this day. Brown would go on to participate in the capture of the port of Brest, fight in the Ardennes Forest and the Battle of the Bulge (with Gen. George Patton), and assist in the liberation of the Nazi death camp Buchenwald.

Drake House opens expanded location New addition features classrooms, teen center By JONATHAN COPSEY jonathan@appenmediagroup.com ROSWELL, Ga. – After nine months of effort, The Drake House officially has a new home. In a ceremony July 23, officials cut the ribbon, marking the next step in a long journey for the nonprofit. The Drake House provides short-term crisis housing, education and empowerment programs for homeless mothers and their children in North Fulton. Last year, The Drake House served 49 families with 93 children. Over its nine years of operations, they have helped hundreds of families and children. “This building is the hub of activities for families,” said Dave Hammond, The Drake House board president. “It has offices, a food pantry, laundry facilities and classrooms.” He said the decision to expand the building, off Clara Drive in Roswell, was due to

rising demand for services. In the 1,100-square-foot expansion are classrooms for mothers to learn life skills and training, offices for the workers and volunteers of The Drake House, and a teen center for the growing number of teens who come to the center. With the help of dozens of nonprofits and local companies, including Home Aid Atlanta, a group that supports homeless agencies in the city, the work was completed. Around $270,000 in work was done, said Kevin Aycock, of Kevin Aycock Homes. About 66 percent of the total was inkind donation. “This project was a lot of fun, said Vincent Longo, of Vincent Longo Custom Homes, who helped with the build. “The project reminded me of all the good in the world.” “This has truly been a journey,” said Executive Director Kathy Swahn, “one of love.” For more information, visit the Drake House online at www.thedrakehouse.org.

Those companies that are bad corporate citizens – those that pollute, create unnecessarily large carbon footprints for goods or services, minimize compensation and benefits to their employees as much as possible or fail to adequately contribute financially to “the greater good” – will suffer debilitating and costly PR problems, decreasing sales and increasing difficulty in hiring and retaining employees. Remember, all millennials are connected and they talk to each other constantly and vote with their wallets and employ-

ment choices. In hindsight, I realize that the ideals and social movements of the ‘60s did not last. They seemed to disappear like smoke in the wind. However, I am more optimistic than I have ever been that this frugal, value-driven, sharing world of millennials may bring about what the ‘60s did not: healthy, positive and sustainable real change. I know that is a lot to put on their plate but I believe that they have the ability, the will and the desire to improve our world – their world. Let’s hope so. We’ll see if they become the new “greatest generation.”

Three Steps Toward Protecting Young Ears (NAPSI)—According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, as many as 16 percent of teens have reported hearing loss possibly caused by loud noise—but you can reduce the risk for the kids you care about. The Problem Many young people get summer or afterschool jobs that involve farm work, construction, landscaping or theme parks, all of which can damage hearing. Prolonged exposure to high-noise volumes or even short exposures to high-level impulse sound can damage sensitive structures in the inner ear and cause noiseinduced hearing loss and/or

ringing in the ears. Some Solutions “Young employees may need guidance to be safe from hazardous noise,” said Dr. Laurie Wells, audiologist, and senior acoustics regulatory affairs specialist for 3M. Here’s how: Step 1: Recognize the Hazard. Too few children and parents realize the hazards of excessive noise, perhaps because school programs don’t typically cover hearing health. The risk is real and increases depending on the combination of the sound level and the duration of exposure. A general guideline is: If you have to shout for someone to hear you

at arm’s length, the sound could be hazardous. Step 2: Take Action. Fortunately, young workers can reduce the negative effects of noise exposure. When possible, reduce the noise at its source. This can be as easy as turning down the volume, keeping equipment regularly maintained or using a quieter tool in place of a louder one. Secondly, move away from the noise when you can. If this isn’t feasible, use hearing protection devices. Employers are obliged to provide appropriate hearing protection to workers in haz-

ardous noise environments. Inexpensive foam earplugs can actually provide the most noise reduction and be the most comfortable if fit and used correctly. Specially designed hearing protectors such as those containing electronics are available for unique environments. Even some ear-muffs use wireless signal transmission that lets workers enjoy a personal listening device or use a mobile phone while maintaining protection from noise. Regardless of which option employers or individuals choose, using hearing protection sometimes requires practice for maximum benefit and comfort. Step 3: Know Your Rights. Young workers should expect a choice of suitable hearing protectors, provided at no cost to them, and to be trained in their proper use. Being aware of noise sources, having appropriately selected and fitted protective devices, and using them correctly will help preserve a young person’s hearing for many years to come.

The louder the noise, the less time a person can safely listen to it before risking hearing damage. Further Facts To encourage people to protect their hearing, 3M has launched the Hearing Pledge. Go to www.hearingpledge.com to learn more about hearing, noise, and hearing protection.

FACT:

Social and emotional intelligence may be the most important determinant of a child’s future success.

While most college students don’t think they should take other people’s prescription medicine, some would to get good grades.

Students will do anything to get an “A” (NAPSI)—A recent survey revealed just how stressed today’s college students are, and that despite overwhelming disapproval of the misuse, abuse and diversion of ADHD prescription stimulant medications, some students still believe that students who misuse are just doing what they have to do to keep up with the pressures of college. Students Are Conflicted A spring 2014 online survey of over 2,000 U.S. college students1, conducted by Harris Poll on behalf of the Coalition to Prevent ADHD Medication Misuse (CPAMM), found that college students consider taking ADHD prescription stimulant medications that were not prescribed to them to be unethical (75 percent), a form of cheating (when used for schoolwork) (59 percent), extremely or very harmful (73 percent) and a “big deal” (80 percent), with 65 percent likening the misuse of ADHD prescription stimulants to do

schoolwork to athletes who use performance-enhancing drugs. On the other hand, 42 percent of students incorrectly believe misusing ADHD prescription stimulants is no more harmful than an energy drink or a strong cup of coffee, and nearly half (48 percent) believe that students who misuse are just doing what they have to do to keep up with the pressures of college. Overall, 64 percent of students declare that they would “do anything to get an A”, and 29 percent admit they will do whatever it takes to succeed academically, even if it requires breaking the rules. Another perception of note is that 75 percent of students believe at least some of their peers have used ADHD prescription stimulants not prescribed to them. Reported rates of actual nonmedical use vary, but a 2013 survey at one large public university indicated that 9.3 percent of college students

Students: Continued from Page 27 reported nonmedical use of prescription stimulant medication in the past year.2 Who’s At Risk? Two groups that stand out based on the survey are members of Greek organizations (fraternities and sororities) and athletes (members of varsity, junior varsity, intramural and/ or club teams). These groups are significantly more likely than their respective counterparts to say they are at least somewhat likely to use ADHD prescription stimulants in a way that is different from a doctor’s instructions (fraternity and sorority members, 40 percent; non-members, 23 percent; athletes, 36 percent; non-athletes, 21 percent). These groups are also more likely to believe that using ADHD prescription stimulants without a prescription can help students get better grades even if they don’t have ADHD: 52 percent of fraternity and sorority members (versus 42 percent of non-members) and 50 percent of athletes (versus 41 percent of non-athletes). Where Do College Students Believe Their Peers Are Getting ADHD Prescription Stimulants? Nearly half (48 percent) of college students think an avenue to obtain prescription stimulants is pretending to have ADHD and getting a prescription from a health care professional. In addition, 87 percent of students believe friends who have a prescription are the primary source of prescription ADHD stimulants for those who are misusing. Students’ Perception Of University Policies

and values. Students are given the opportunity to explore their faith through spiritual retreats, Chapel, Bible courses, leadership/mentor opportunities, and mission trips. More than a school, Mount Pisgah is a community. Ask any student, parent or teacher, “What do you love most about the school?” The answer you’ll hear is “Mount Pisgah is a family.” Relationships and a sense of belonging are highlights of the Mount Pisgah Experience.

Despite a belief by two in five students (40 percent) that misuse is a problem at their school, nearly three in five students (57 percent) believe that the administration and the professors at their school are unaware of the misuse of ADHD prescription stimulants on campus. In addition, 58 percent of college students feel that their school does not make it clear that it does not approve of ADHD prescription stimulant medication misuse. About the Survey Method Harris Poll conducted the survey on behalf of the Coalition to Prevent ADHD Medication Misuse (CPAMM). The survey was administered online within the United States between May 15 and June 11, 2014, among 2,056 U.S. college students (full-time, 91 percent, and part-time, 9 percent), defined as adults aged 18 to 24 enrolled and seeking a degree at a 4-year college or university and attending at least some in-person classes. Among that group, 164 were diagnosed with ADHD. Data are weighted where necessary by age within gender, race/ethnicity, region, and propensity to be online in order to bring them in line with their actual proportions in the population. 1 College students were defined as those age 18-24 seeking a degree at a 4-year college or university and attending at least some in-person classes. 2 Source: McCabe, S.E., West, B.T., Teter, C.J. & Boyd, C.J., Trends in Medical Use, Diversion, and Nonmedical Use of Prescription Medications among College Students from 2003 to 2013: Connecting the Dots, Addictive Behaviors (2014), doi: 10.1016/j. addbeh.2014.03.008

He said much of the talent playing onstage would be songwriters famous for penning the music of popular artists. “They are not stars in their own right,” he said, “but they write hits for other stars. They will sing songs everyone knows and be able to tell

about writing them.” The city would chip in nearly $92,000 for the twoday event, which would take place in downtown Alpharetta. As many as three stages would be set up around downtown for performers, which would be fenced off from the non-paying community. Belle Isle said the ultimate goal is to grow the event and lessen the city’s contribution until it is self-supporting. Revenue from the event would be shared by both the city and Carter. “It’s going to be a great event,” said Councilmember Mike Kennedy. “I’m uncomfortable with the financial situation, but I reluctantly support this.”

LEGO city creation in Roswell By MAGGIE MCDANIEL maggie@northfulton.com ROSWELL, Ga. – An art display featuring an elaborate city of skyscrapers and buildings influenced by cultures all over the world is in Roswell. And it is made entirely of Legos. The Lego creation “Celebricktion” is currently displayed until Aug. 10 at Roswell’s Monkey Joe’s. Created by Harry Nijenkamp and his 20-year-old son, Austin, “Celebricktion” was constructed around two years ago and has already been presented to the public. The Nijenkamps spent about a year and a half during their spare time creating the city in their own “Lego lab.” With no plans or designs and staying up until 3 a.m. some nights, finally their 12-foot-tall, 15-foot-deep and 15-foot-wide masterpiece was done. The city contains over a million pieces and sits on several panels. The display can be looked at for hours and at every glance something different can be noticed. Whether it is Spiderman climbing a big blue skyscraper, people sunbathing on the beach and watching pirates out on the ocean, a firehouse with a pingpong table, to a massive parade on the street modeled after Atlanta’s Dragon-con including many mainstream movie characters, one can get lost in the city’s beauty while bringing out their inner child’s creativity. “Celebricktion” represents a celebration, said Harry, and was inspired by locations and dreamed up between him and Austin as an inspiration. “We do it for entertainment but it is to inspire other people to show them that you can do all these crazy things,” Harry said. “We want people to think that you can dream everything up even if you don’t have that many Legos.” Austin said he has always enjoyed building Legos and

makes sure his creations are detailed. “To me, Lego is special because it’s both a toy and an art that can be enjoyed by all ages and, more importantly, is not just a single toy but a system of play,” Austin said. According to Austin, what makes the creation different from other Lego creations is its transportability. It is set up on different panels that are placed into crates and take six to seven hours to transport and set up in a new location. It is also the first of its size to have LED lights. Harry says the lights could not have been made possible without the help from high school students AJ Hall and Alex Hoeve. Harry hired the two boys to help wire each building with LED lights that will make the city seem more real and alive. The city is about two years old but, according to Harry it

is a project that will never be finished. He hopes to add more to the city, including a bridge that stretches to another Lego set that may include an amusement park. But, for now, he just wants to share his art with others and inspire them. The display is now at Monkey Joe’s to promote a “Celebricktion” event taking place Oct. 10 and 11 at the Cobb Galleria Centre. The event costs $15 at the door and 10 percent of the proceeds will go to Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta. Several displays and activities will be at the event including a replica of the Nijenkamps’ Lego lab, Lego games, vendors and more for the public to participate in. The Nijenkamps’ “Celebricktion” will be at Roswell’s Monkey Joe’s location, 700 Holcomb Bridge Rd., Roswell, 30076 until Aug. 10.

Milton Steelers give back to community MILTON, Ga. - The Milton Steelers are not just an ordinary football team, but a ministry for Tim Lester, founder of the New Found Life Youth Football League and the Milton Steelers flag and tackle football teams. While many other leagues and teams are preparing for the 2015 football season to begin, the Milton Steelers are thinking beyond just football. They have planned three outreach opportunities to give their players and families opportunities to give back. “We would like each of our players to see how truly blessed we are and how in life it is always a great thing to help others when given the opportunity,” Lester said. The Steelers’ outreach opportunities include collecting backpacks filled with school supplies for a foster-care organization, feeding families at a women’s and children’s shelter and taking part in a community clean up. On July 13, the first day of conditioning, players and families brought backpacks filled with school supplies for the Foster Care Support Foundation. The Foundation estimates that 1,350 children have come through their facility this summer to receive clothing for school. The kids who had been served already were at risk of not getting school supplies until the fall since the foundation was short on many items. As a result, Carrie Hildebrandt, director of community outreach for the Milton Steelers, made it a priority to gather school supplies as quickly as

was 80.26 percent. Roswell’s SNAP households with children 18 and under average percentage was 64.258. In Milton the average was 48.64. Milton is the only city, of these four North Fulton cities, where the average percentage of SNAP households with one or more person 60 years or older outweighed SNAP households with children 18 and under. North Fulton free-andreduced school-lunch data also reflects the need for local childhood food assistance. Some public schools in the area have as many as 30 percent of their student population receiving free or reduced lunches. “Since 2008, students who participated in the federal school lunch program within our service jurisdiction increased by 41 percent, while
