and visitors busy during the day, along with fireside chats and “meet the author” sessions, allowing everyone to mingle.

Wayne Boston, of Milton’s Better Together group, said the idea came about almost exactly a year ago.

“In November 2014, our Better Together group sponsored a ‘Free Writers Workshop’ for the community,” he said. “This workshop, led by local author Kimberly Brock, who was Georgia Author of the Year in 2013, attracted some 35 writers and aspiring writers in the community.”

After that, the Milton Literary Group was formed. The

ALPHARETTA, Ga. – A Buford woman led police on a short chase down Ga. 400 Oct. 13 after allegedly stealing more than $500 in merchandise from a local store.

Police responded to the Publix supermarket on Haynes Bridge Road after employees reported a woman, later identified as Dawn Marie Roberts, 41, of Buford, selected dozens of items, including expensive meats, diapers and pet food totaling $557. Roberts allegedly placed all the items in personal bags and left the store without paying for them. As she was getting into her vehicle, a white Chevrolet Blazer, an employ-

Man drops drugs in bank MILTON, Ga. – A Canton man is suspected of possessing drugs after he allegedly dropped a baggie of cocaine on the floor of a bank.

Employees of the Suntrust Bank at Birmingham Road told police Oct. 23 that a customer came into the bank to make a withdrawal. While he waited in line, a small baggie fell out of his pocket onto the floor. Only after he left did employees go to pick up the baggie and realize it contained suspected crack cocaine.

The suspect, a 42-year-old Canton man, was a regular customer of the bank whom the teller knew by name.

ee confronted Roberts, who claimed she left her receipt in the store bathroom. The employee took a photo of Roberts’ license plate, at which point Roberts allegedly got into her car and fled, striking the employee with her vehicle as she did.

Police found Roberts’ car on Old Milton Parkway and attempted to pull her over. Instead, she allegedly got onto Ga. 400 southbound and ignored police. She eventually stopped at the Haynes Bridge exit and was arrested.

Roberts was charged with aggravated assault, theft by shoplifting over $500 and fleeing police.

clothing and then leave the store. Lossprevention workers caught up with Harvey and asked her to stop. Instead she allegedly began running and fighting with them.

While the employees were fighting with Harvey, another woman, Charlet A. Dale Johnson, 22, of Stone Mountain, came up and allegedly joined in on the fight.

When police arrived, four employees were engaged with the two women, who were allegedly punching and spitting.

The suspects allegedly refused to comply with police commands to stop fighting and only submitted once a Taser was drawn.

Both Harvey and Johnson were charged with assault, battery, shoplifting and resisting arrest.

3 arrested on drug, weapons charges

ALPHARETTA, Ga. – Two women face assault charges after allegedly starting a brawl with store employees who tried to detain them Oct. 15.

Employees of the Macy’s store at North Point Mall told police they saw Kimberly Sharanda Harvey, 21, of Lawrenceville, select several items of

ALPHARETTA, Ga. – Three people were arrested on weapons and drug charges Oct. 24 after allegedly being seen acting suspiciously by police.

An officer on patrol of the Courtyard Marriott hotel on Windward Parkway was looking for suspicious activity after a spate of entering autos in that area during the prior week. Witnesses said a group of three or four people would arrive in a vehicle – one was the driver, another a lookout while the others would break into vehicles.

While on patrol, the officer noticed several men standing between vehicles

in the hotel parking lot. When the men noticed the police cruiser, they got into their car and sat there with the car off.

They only left the parking lot after the police cruiser was out of site, police say. The officer followed the car to another business and pulled it over.

Inside were three men and a woman. Police note they wore purple bandanas on their arms or belts, commonly a sign of gang affiliation.

The occupants said they were lost.

A search of the car turned up some marijuana and a handgun with the serial numbers filed off. A check of the suspects’ IDs revealed several had prior charges on gang and violent activity.

Three of the occupants were arrested – one for drug possession and two for the firearm. The fourth suspect was released without charge.

Stranded motorist arrested for drugs ALPHARETTA, Ga. – A traffic accident landed a Johns Creek man in jail on drug charges.

Police say they spotted a stranded motorist on Ga. 400 near Haynes Bridge Road. The 22-year-old man told police a vehicle cut him off while driving, causing him to swerve and hit the concrete median wall.

While speaking with the man, police noted smelling marijuana. A search of the car turned up a pipe with suspected pot inside. The man was arrested for possession of marijuana. ►► Charles Hugh Bearden, 22, of

Cataracts

By Cameron Johnson, MD

Cameron Johnson, MD. Laser Cataract, Refractive and Corneal Surgeon

What is a cataract?

The eye has a lens similar in function to a camera lens, focusing light on the retina, the part of the eye that receives images and transmits them to the brain. This lens is made of proteins that are aligned in a precise manner, making the lens clear. As we age, the proteins can begin to clump together, making the lens cloudy.

When the lens becomes cloudy it is a cataract.

What causes cataracts?

All people develop cataracts if they live long enough, due to natural wear and tear on the proteins making up the lens. There are, however, factors thought to accelerate this process. These include exposure to UV light, smoking, and diabetes.

To slow the progression of cataracts, do not smoke and wear UV blocking sunglasses when outside.

What are the symptoms of cataracts?

People with cataracts often note a gradually increasing cloudiness of the vision as well as poor night vision. Other symptoms include glare when driving at night, and haloes around lights. Patients may note that colors look faded due to the yellowing of the lens. Sometimes these changes happen so slowly that someone may not realize how much their vision has been affected.

How are cataracts diagnosed?

Your eye doctor will be able to diagnose whether you have a cataract by performing an eye exam that includes dilating your eyes to get a good look at the lens. Your vision will be tested to determine if the cataract is affecting your vision. You may also have glare testing to determine if your vision is decreased in situations such as driving at night.

What is the treatment for cataracts?

With early cataracts, vision can often be improved with a new glasses prescription, or using increased lighting when reading. As cataracts progress, the only treatment available is surgery to remove the cloudy lens and replace it with an artificial lens.

Cataract surgery is recommended when the cataract has become advanced enough to affect your daily

activities such as reading, watching television, or driving. Cataract surgery very successful, but like all surgeries has risks. Your eye doctor will discuss the risks, benefits, and alternatives of cataract surgery with you.

What are some of the new technologies available to cataract patients?

Some of the most exciting progress in cataract surgery recently has been the development of advanced technology intraocular lenses which help patients minimize dependence on glasses. Approximately 1/3 of the population has astigmatism that blurs the vision, requiring glasses for correction.

Advanced technology lenses can often correct astigmatism inside the eye, enabling patients to have clear distance vision. Another type of advanced technology lens, called a multifocal lens can often help cataract patients see more clearly both at near and at distance after surgery. Your eye doctor can discuss if you would be a candidate for these technologies.

Milton delays discussion on conservation subdivisions Ordinance to be heard between mid-Nov. and early next year

By JONATHAN COPSEY jonathan@appenmediagroup.com MILTON, Ga. – The City of Milton has deferred any action on the proposed Conservation Subdivision Ordinance until some time between midNovember and possibly early spring. The issue was slated to appear before the City Council in the Nov. 2 meeting.

Angela Thompson, communications manager with the city, said city staff is still working on the ordinance and it is unknown when it may be

ready to come back before the City Council.

The Milton City Council voted unanimously Sept. 14 to defer any decision on the Conservation Subdivision Ordinance to November.

City Attorney Ken Jarrard said at the time it was impractical to adopt the CSO in a vacuum without other zoning modifications, as it would lead to a “dysfunctional” CSO. For instance, nothing in the zoning code would reference the CSO, which would exist in a “vacuum,” Jarrard said.

The city has been working with a consultant on the CSO for over a year now, with multiple public meetings and drafts.

A conservation subdivision is a development that allows the builder to condense homes on a smaller amount of property in order to preserve more green space than the law typically allows. The idea is this would keep more of the city “green” than would otherwise be possible.

The issue came to a head after the end of the recession when the housing industry picked back up. Residents noticed hundreds of homes suddenly being built on what had been woods or farmland.

They worried about the “rural” nature of Milton that caused them to move to the city in the first place.

The city is being careful to toe the line between developers’ property rights and the wants of those who live in the city. There are also practical matters that need addressing, such as communal septic on land not allowed sewer.

In addition to the ordinance, the city is looking at alternatives, such as an amended AG-1 zoning requirement, which could address many of the concerns of the community.

City staff is working on this, a job that will take several months.

Entering autos spree hits Alpharetta Dozens of vehicles broken into, items, weapons stolen

By JONATHAN COPSEY jonathan@appenmediagroup.com ALPHARETTA, Ga. – Alpharetta has seen a string of vehicle break-ins in recent days, with more than 20 victims reporting damage and stolen goods between Oct. 16 and 20.

Almost all of the vehicles hit were in or near the parking lots of local hotels and restaurants.

The Courtyard Marriott on Deerfield Parkway reported several break-ins overnight Oct. 16 with windows broken

out and computers and other personal items reported taken.

That same night, the Hyatt Place and Hilton Garden Inn both reported windows broken into of vehicles.

One victim reported a passport and cash taken, along with computers.

Two victims reported rental vehicles missing at the same time.

In some cases, windows were broken but nothing was reported missing.

A few days later, Oct. 19, a vehicle’s door handle was reportedly damaged at the Hampton Inn on Old Morris Road and nothing was missing.

On the other side of town at about lunch time two vehicles were reportedly broken into at

the Tom and Chee restaurant.

Again, windows were broken and computers were taken.

Later that night, at a nearby restaurant strip mall, several vehicles reportedly had smashed windows and items missing.

Customers of the La Parilla and Taco Mac reported windows smashed with cameras, wallets, computers and clothing reportedly missing.

One vehicle was reported stolen.

On Oct. 20, four more vehicles were broken into at the Hyatt Place on North Point Parkway. Two had nothing taken, one had a computer missing.

The fourth had two firearms stolen — a Sig. 226R 9

mm and a Spikes ST15 tactical assault rifle, both with extra mags and ammo.

George Gordon, spokesman with the Alpharetta Department of Public Safety, said most such crimes are ones of opportunity.

“It takes only seconds for someone to break into a vehicle, grab something and flee,” Gordon said. “The best way to deter becoming a victim is to practice the ‘Take, lock and hide’ concept. Always take valuables from your vehicle when not occupied. Lock up your vehicle. Hide items out if sight if you can’t remove them.”

He encouraged residents to report any suspicious activity to authorities.

A portion of Alpharetta’s Big Creek Greenway will close for 14 days for repairs.

Unusual fatigue?

It could be depression.

Submit your news & photos to news@appenmediagroup.com

Section of Big Creek Greenway to close for 2 weeks ALPHARETTA, Ga. -- A portion of Alpharetta’s Big Creek Greenway will be closed for 14 days as crews make drainage repairs and bridge an area that is frequently unusable due to ponding water. The closure, which will go into effect on Nov. 2, will impact a segment located just north of Web Bridge Road.

“We have received a number of complaints about this small section of our Greenway ponding even when little rain has fallen,” states Mike Perry, director of Recreation and Parks for the City of Alpharetta.

“While much of our greenway is located within a floodplain and has to be periodically closed when we receive heavy rains, the water in most areas quickly recedes and the trail is

reopened within a day or two,” he said. “In this one short stretch, however, water tends to pond quickly and remains there, resulting in that area being unusable more frequently and for longer periods.”

The city will create a short bridge over the section so that water can more freely pass from one side of the trail to the other. This will also allow for use of the trail segment, even if some water is present.

During construction, the segment of the Big Creek Greenway will be closed and not available for use from a point approximately a half-mile south of the Marconi Drive trailhead to Webb Bridge Road.

The remainder of the trail will be unaffected.

RiShawn Biddle: Some journalists are born I have been thinking about writing a column about RiShawn Biddle for a long time now.

I first met him a very long time ago – in the early ’90s – when he was a young high school student who lived somewhere inside the perimeter and had an internship with us.

After his internship ended, he continued working for us for a while as a stringer.

He was a slight, unassuming kid who didn't say much and, if you weren't very observant, you probably didn't even realize he worked at the paper with us. He kept his head down and just cranked out clean, accurate copy.

He initially covered the crime beat for us and then later would cover anything we sent his way. He never complained or questioned the assignment other than to possibly ask if we had anything else that he could work on.

He didn't drive the proverbial late-model BMW nor did an alpha helicopter mom drop him off and pick him up. In fact, he didn’t have a car at all.

He had no money. He had very little of anything except a

RAY APPEN

burning desire to be a journalist. He didn’t have enough sense to realize that he didn’t have much of a chance in the journalism world – or just about any other world at the time for a poor young kid from the other side of the tracks.

But he showed up every day and wrote his stories.

He took a bus from somewhere in Sandy Springs or possibly closer to Midtown, I’m not sure exactly where. He rode that bus to Alpharetta, but I recall the service was sporadic at the time and I believe stopped several miles from our office.

So from the bus stop, he would walk first to the Alpharetta Police Station to get material for his stories. Then he walked a few more miles up the road to our office to write them. He would leave late I

remember – often after dark – on foot, heading back to the bus stop a few miles away, and then take the bus back home.

I kept thinking that it would be too much for him, but he never failed to show up or get his stories in on time.

I found out later that we were not the only paper for which he worked. He was doing much the same work at the Dunwoody Crier for Dick Williams – on foot – after school, and by bus. Every day. I never forgot RiShawn Biddle.

One day he gave us his two weeks’ notice and then departed for parts unknown. For a while he would sporadically contact our editor, Hatcher Hurd, but after a while even that contact stopped. Then one day, years later, he called me out of the blue.

He told me he was working a business beat for Forbes magazine. He sounded animated — engaged and excited — something I didn’t recall from before. I also detected a sense of accomplishment in his voice, and maybe surprise at his own success. He had traveled a lot of miles on his own against incredibly long odds,

powered simply by a passion and a gritty determination that would not yield.

And judging from the tone of his voice, the distance had not the least bit slowed him down, and the best was still yet to come.

I believe that first time he called me he was living in California or possibly Chicago, and I vividly recall thinking that was a very long way from home for a kid who, for some reason, was frozen in my memory.

I always would think of him as that naive youngster navigating unknown waters and arriving and departing from work in Keds.

“I’m working for Forbes,” he said.

“Of course you are,” I thought to myself. “Of course you are, RiShawn.”

Fast forward another 10 years and something I saw or heard stirred up an old memory. I Googled “RiShawn Biddle Forbes” and came up with this address: http://www.rishawnbiddle.org/aboutrishawn.html.

I read it with wonder and excitement. I felt like I had just taken a window seat in a time machine and was — in live

time — traversing the years while watching the countryside pass by in a blur.

The last time I saw this guy, he reminded me of a poor urban Oliver Twist and now, with the wave of a wand, he is a grown man with a fascinating career as a wordsmith.

It only took a few sentences into his website to know and, with a great smile on my face, understand that he was still filled with that same passion, engagement and grit that he brought to the Appen Newspapers office about 25 years ago.

I am not sure that he remembers me now or how hard he worked for us.

But some day he will tell his kids about how many miles he walked “thru the snow” to get to school and how little he had and how nothing had been given to him. But that he had to earn it all.

I wish I could be there in the room so I could jerk a knot in those kids if they think he is joking because he would not be joking at all. He did it all and more, you see.

Cheers and salute, RiShawn Biddle. So proud of you.

‘Leave some change’ KATHLEEN STURGEON Forsyth Herald Reporter kathleen@appen mediagroup.com

Have you ever been sitting at your desk working when all of a sudden you’re interrupted by kittens in the office? Well, Appen Media Group can now check that off of our bucket list as we had two furry visitors on National Cat Day last week.

Uber, the taxi-like company, teamed up with Atlanta Humane Society and chauffeured adoptable kittens around from office to office Oct. 29 in hopes of getting kittens adopted and to raise money.

Our group collected donations throughout the morning and then impatiently awaited our visitors. When our 2-month-old guests, Meredith and Melvin, arrived, we were able to play with them for over half an hour and take many cute kitten selfies. We were the last stop on their tour as they had already visited eight other media outlets throughout North Atlanta. So they, very adorably, fell asleep.

This kitten frenzy occurred the day after we volunteered at North Fulton Community Charities to help with sorting, organizing and moving crates. While

Members of Appen Media Group, your local news source for North Fulton (and south Forsyth), volunteer with North Fulton Community Charities.

Make time to help others in the orientation for NFCC, we were told to “leave some change.” However, they did not mean pennies or dimes.

What they meant, of course, was to leave an impact on the world. Leave change. The incredible Mahatma Gandhi was quoted: “Be the change that you wish to see in the world.” Gandhi died in 1948 but, to this day, that sentiment still rings true.

Change might take the form of helping a cute kitten get adopted because someone saw him on Appen’s Facebook page. Or it could be helping a lady at the thrift store find the perfect Christmas ornament.

Those are the kinds of positive changes I want to be involved in.

Never underestimate the benefits of volunteering, both for you and for your community.

We at Appen Media Group spent a good chunk of a workday recently volunteering at North Fulton Community Charities in Roswell.

For those who don’t know, NFCC is one of the largest nonprofits in the North Fulton area assisting families with basic needs – food, rent, utilities, clothing – during short-term emergencies. They say they offer assistance to over 5,000 families annually. Food was distributed over 20,000 times, over 2,000 families utilized clothing vouchers, and $1.3 million was spent for direct aid to cli-

Congress dithers as $123M GDOT projects delayed States face 34th short-term federal transportation extension ATLANTA – Georgia Department of Transportation announced that the agency is unable to release federally funded projects for bids in December due to federal funding uncertainty.

The 34 delayed projects, valued at $123 million, were previously scheduled to go out for bids during that month.

Repeated shortfalls in the Federal Highway Trust Fund account have led to a series of brief funding extensions.

The latest patch by Congress – the 34th short-term transportation funding extension since 2009 (and the third one in 10 months) – extends the federal government’s authority to process aid payments to states through Oct. 29.

“It has been 10 years since Congress has been able to pass a transportation funding bill of more than a two-year duration,”said Georgia DOT Commissioner Russell McMurry. “Temporary fixes do not create the certainty state DOTs require in order to plan major transportation projects. We can’t do long-term transportation planning with short-term funding fixes.”

Key delayed December projects include: • A $45 million resurfacing and maintenance project on Interstate 75 in Catoosa County from State Route 3/U.S. 41 to the Tennessee state line • A $2.5 million bridge maintenance project involving 10 Fulton County bridges.

• A $20 million resurfacing and maintenance project in Tift County on I-75 from south of County Road 204/Southwell Road in Tift County to south of SR 32 in Turner County.

• A $3 million operational

improvement on SR 3 at Windy Hill Road in Cobb County “While Congress looks for solutions, the clock ticks down to next Thursday’s Oct. 29 deadline,” McMurry said.

“If Congress does not reach an agreement by then, US DOT will cut off payments for infrastructure projects to states and local governments in November. This poses grave challenges for our transportation system.”

It has been 10 years since Congress has been able to pass a transportation funding bill of more than a two-year duration.”

Little Helpers teach Join the March of Dimes children about volunteerism for 2015 North Fulton

Signature Chef Auction

By ISABELLE NGUYEN news@appenmediagroup.com

MILTON, Ga. - Little Helpers is a family volunteer group that uses service projects to teach children the importance of helping others.

Tran Smith co-founded Little Helpers in 2012 with two other families in Memphis, Tennessee. The organization is designed to help young people understand the importance of volunteering, broaden their community perspective and experience a sense of accomplishment from lending a helping hand.

With chapters across the country, an Atlanta Little Helpers chapter began in August. In October, the group organized a Trevor’s Toes and Tushies Socks and Underwear Drive to benefit families at City of Refuge, a nonprofit organization in Atlanta dedicated to community efforts that lead to the stability and sustainability of families. The agency works with homeless families, women and children suffering from domestic abuse, victims of sex trafficking and anyone who needs help getting back on track.

Named in honor of 6-year-

Pictured left to right are Alisa Deanes of Atlanta, Nadia Neely with City of Refuge and Tran Smith, Little Helpers founder, and Jackson and Ava Smith. old Trevor George, a Penfield, New York, Little Helpers volunteer who passed away suddenly from a virus in August 2014, the Trevor’s Toes and Tushies Socks and Underwear Drive culminated Oct. 18 when members wore superhero outfits and mismatched socks — Trevor’s trademarks — to deliver donations to the City of Refuge. They also played games and spent time with families at the facility.

Little Helpers works with various agencies around the area. Some of the projects children help with include volunteering with homeless

shelters and animal shelters as well as visiting residents at nursing homes. The children also have sent cards to the military and delivered treats to local heroes on 9/11.

Smith decided to start a local chapter after her husband’s job transfer to the area.

“Atlanta has such a great need and its people have such big hearts,” Smith said. Of the local youngsters who volunteer, Smith said she hopes “volunteerism becomes a part of their lifestyle.” As she said, “we are raising kind kids who will make the world a better place.”

Wesleyan student honored for perfect SAT ALPHARETTA, Ga. —Andy Yang, an Alpharetta resident and an eighth-grader of Wesleyan School in Peachtree Corners, was honored Oct. 18 as one of the brightest middle school students in the world at an international awards ceremony sponsored by the Johns Hopkins University Center for Talented Youth (CTY).

The Center honored Yang for his exceptional performance as a middle school student on the college SAT test as part of the annual CTY Talent Search. CTY uses above-grade-level tests, such as the college SAT, ACT, or similar for middle school students, because they provide a clear picture of advanced students’ true academic abilities. As a seventh grader, Yang scored a perfect 800 on the math section of SAT in the 2014-2015 CTY Talent

Search. As a result, Yang was also invited to join CTY’s Study of Exceptional Talent (SET), a select group of profoundly YANG gifted students worldwide who achieve a score of 700 or higher on SAT reading or math before the age of 13. Andy’s score of 800 on the SAT-M as a seventh grader is superb.

Considering that Andy earned a perfect score on this portion of the test, it is possible that his true score would have been even higher than 800 if the ceiling was raised,» said Michelle Muratori, CTY’s Senior counselor and researcher of study of exceptional talent.

Teasley Place to bring mixed-use to downtown Alpharetta Developers seek to leave mark on hometown

By JONATHAN COPSEY jonathan@appenmediagroup.com ALPHARETTA, Ga. – Nearly eight undeveloped acres of downtown Alpharetta are in the hands of a private joint venture headed up by developers who seek to leave their mark on their home city.

River Rock Development is a partnership of two developers and their combined parcels of land make them one of the largest landowners in historic downtown Alpharetta.

One of their projects is The Lofts, a luxury condo development in downtown Alpharetta.

Abutting The Lofts to the south is another 1.5-acre project at the corner of Milton Avenue and Canton Street, which will mix with The Lofts, called Teasley Place.

Teasley Place will have 24 forsale units of residential above 17,000 square feet of retail and 5,000 square feet of office. It is four stories tall.

River Rock sees Teasley Place as the first of several developments in the downtown.

“There is a market demand for it and the building of a village atmosphere,” said George H. Jackson IV, with River Rock. “People want to shop, eat, live and work in downtown Alpharetta.”

Certainly, Alpharetta has become a hotbed of housing, with numerous residential developments queueing up to be in the downtown. Apartments, townhomes and some single-family homes are within a half-mile of the city center.

Part of the appeal of Alpharetta is how much of a blank slate it is.

A rendering shows what the new Teasley Place development may look like in downtown Alpharetta. It will feature office and retail on the ground floor and condos above.

“Here we have a unique opportunity,” Jackson said. “In Roswell or Atlanta, you have to build to what is already there. Here we can be innovative and creative.”

A case in point is Roswell’s Canton Street. While that may be the perfect location for the mixed-use, live-workplay concept that is popular in building circles today, it is largely built out and maintains a certain aesthetic that can bind developers.

Mark Wyssbrod, another River Rock team member, said mixed-use development has grown quickly in popularity.

“The attitude has gone from ‘not

in my backyard’ to ‘can you build it today?’” Wyssbrod said.

Jackson agreed.

“Millennial culture has caught on,” he said. “People want to be in the car less. Millennial culture has inspired the baby boomer culture. They see the positive in some millennial preferences.”

Jackson, Wyssbrod and River Rock Development believe those preferences will be well implemented in projects like Teasley Place.

“We are proud of Alpharetta and we want to help build a greater city than there is now,” Jackson said.

Because the developers live in

Bigger –

✔ 1400 Memberships ✔ 100,000+ North

Fulton Professionals

Faster–

Decision Makers ✔ Business Solutions & Resources

Alpharetta, he said there is no chance of “build-and-run,” with shoddy or inappropriate development being constructed. Jackson and Wyssbrod said they want a quality product they can be proud of having in their hometown.

“We want the community to say ‘we love what they did downtown,’” Jackson said.

“Alpharetta has great opportunities not just to build but to be part of the community,” Wyssbrod said. “I’m not sure where there is a better opportunity.”

Work is expected to begin on Teasley Place “imminently,” Jackson said.

OrthoAtlanta welcomes new doctors Top orthopaedists well-versed in sports medicine

By HATCHER HURD hatcher@appenmediagroup.com JOHNS CREEK, Ga. – OrthoAtlanta , with 13 offices in the metro Atlanta area to providing orthopaedic expertise for the north metro community, has announced four new orthopaedists at its Johns Creek location.

With the stated goal to help improve and maintain the quality of life of its patients, OrthoAtlanta’s newest office is on Hospital Parkway, conveniently across the street from Emory Johns Creek Hospital.

Dr. David Stokes, who is one of the new doctors at OrthoAtlanta’s Johns Creek office, said this location is a vital link in covering the North FultonGwinnett-Forsyth arc.

“It’s a growing area and it’s a young area with athletic people. So it produces its fair

share of injuries,’ Stokes said.

“And we think it is important to take time with our patients and listen to what they say.

The patient has a big role in making his or her recovery. It is important to have good communication, and that goes both ways.”

Stokes said OrthoAtlanta is an attractive office for him because all of the patient care takes place in the same place.

“Each location has physical therapy at the clinic. There are four MRI scanners so patients never have to wait for a procedure. We give patients the finest care available all right here,” Stokes said.

In all there are 35 physicians in the OrthoAtlanta system, 11 physical therapy centers and two surgical centers.

Sports medicine is a big part of what OrthoAtlanta does. They are the official sports medicine provider to the Chick-fil-A Peach Bowl, Atlanta (hockey) Gladiators, Georgia Soccer and numerous college, high school and community

Community & Southern Bank Names Casey Moye as VP CUMMING, Ga. – Community and Southern Bank (CSB) recently announced the appointment of Casey Moye as vice president and business banking relationship manager for the North Atlanta region of CSB at 505 Peachtree Parkway, Cumming. “CSB successfully offers the best of both worlds, serving as one of the most communityminded banks in Georgia, while simultaneously serving the intricate financial needs of local businesses,” said Moye. “I am pleased to be joining such a solid organization with a growth mindset for the Ga. 400 corridor.” Most recently, Moye was vice president and small

business specialist at BB&T, serving the North Fulton, Cumming, Dawson and Lumpkin County, Ga., areas. He remains active in his local community by providing support to various civic and charitable groups.

Moye’s present and past community involvement includes volunteering for organizations such as the Dahlonega Planning and Zoning Commission, the Dawsonville Optimist Club and the Dawson County Rotary Club. “Appointing Casey as business banking relationship manager supports our vision and commitment to local businesses,” said Carter Barrett, CSB’s North Atlanta Regional President.

sports programs across the region.

“It is not unusual for a high school athlete who goes on to play at the college level to want to come back to see us if they get another injury,” Stokes said.

“We want to prevent concussions, but we also see that the right protocols are followed if an athlete does have one. You can’t really prevent a concussion, but we make sure one is monitored properly and we have the proper equipment to do it.”

The doctors also keep the kids eating right and exercising.

“We want them to be active, healthy and safe,” he said.

Dr. Timothy C. Gajewski, another addition in Johns Creek, is a sports medicine specialist who brings expertise in reconstructive surgery of the hip and knee to the area.

Gajewski has a special interest in partial knee replacements.

“Less invasive treatment options such as partial knee replacement offer quicker

recovery and enhanced patient satisfaction. Advances in joint replacement and reconstruction are occurring every day.

I have dedicated my career to bringing the latest technologies and expertise to treating hip and knee problems,” Gajewski said.

Also joining the Johns Creek practice are spine surgeon and sports medicine specialist Tuan L. Bui and orthopaedic surgeon and sports medicine specialist Thomas R. Cadier.

Pat Prosser, OrthoAtlanta public relations manager, said its doctors bring experience and knowledge gained from years of sports medicine research, education and training.

“Our orthopaedic specialists offer a full range of Atlanta orthopaedic services that include cartilage restoration,

The OrthoAtlanta system is one of the largest orthopaedic and sports medicine practices in the greater Atlanta area, she said. In addition to its 13 offices and 35 physicians, it employs more than 50 additional health care providers including physician assistants, physical therapists and athletic trainers dedicated to patient care.

Do you recognize and celebrate your accomplishments and the achievements that you have made?

Running a business is a tough job, and celebrating your milestones is a great way to keep you motivated to continue to grow your small business.

To celebrate a milestone, you have to set goals and objectives.

Revenue objectives, the number of new customers you’ve acquired, how long you have been in business and how many employees you have are all good things to

recognize. You don’t have to have a big event to celebrate your milestones, but they certainly shouldn’t go unnoticed.

Celebrating your milestones is not only good for the morale of your employees, it’s good for you, too.

Setting goals and achieving them provides you with an opportunity to thank your employees for their hard

Celebrating your milestones doesn’t have to be a planned event. It could be a spur-of-the-moment announcement in your office that you just achieved something.

Recognizing this, even in an informal way, will provide a catalyst for continued success. It will also incentivize you to continue to dream big and try and achieve even more. Celebrating your milestones is not only good for your small business, it’s good for you as a small-business owner.

New Kroger moves forward

By KATHLEEN STURGEON kathleen@appenmediagroup.com CUMMING, Ga. – About a year after the much-anticipated opening of Costco on the northeast corner of Bald Ridge Marina and Market Place Boulevard off Ga. 400 at exit 15, the county is now looking into opening a Kroger southwest of Cumming.

The 26.9-acre corner on Castleberry and Bethelview roads would house the grocery store. The Forsyth County Planning Commission approved the application Oct. 27. It will now be brought to the board of commissioners for a final vote Nov. 19.

Some topics that were discussed included planting requirements, fuel-pump locations and site elevations.

Red Cross blood donations sought before holidays ALPHARETTA, Ga. — The American Red Cross encourages eligible donors to give blood before the holiday season is in full swing.

Three questions for first timers to consider (NAPSI)—If you or someone you care about is like many renters, you may be wondering if the time to buy a home is now.

According to the experts at the National Association of Realtors (NAR), the answer may be “yes.” Interest rates remain low and job growth is holding steady, leading to the strongest year of existing-home sales since 2007.

While renting is a shortterm decision and usually in-

volves signing a yearlong lease, homeowners typically stay in their home around eight to 10 years before selling. That’s why, when determining what you want in your first home, it’s important to think about how your life may be different at least five years from now.

What To Ask Consider these three questions if you’re taking the exciting leap to homeownership:

Protect your investment by prepping your outdoor living space for the harsh winter elements.

A guide to winterizing your outdoor living space (NAPSI)—Falling leaves and dipping temperatures signal the turn of the season and with that comes the need to prepare your home for winter. Your outdoor living space is no exception; it’s an area you spent months enjoying with summer barbecues and gatherings.

your home and prepare it for the harsh winter weather ahead.

Analyze your financial situation. Have all current debt obligations—credit cards, student loans—been repaid on time?

Find out what you’re qualified to borrow by visiting a lender and getting a preapproval.

2. Do you want a walkable community or leafy suburb? A recent survey by NAR and Portland State University found that 79 percent of participants place importance on being within easy walking distance of places. Having lots of dining and shopping options outside your door is popular but often comes with trade-offs. Consider this: If kids are in your short-term future, you might prefer a large single-family home with a yard to a similarly priced but smaller town house or condo.

3. Would you prefer shiny and customized or a resale with more character? Buying new or used may come down to your wallet. The most recent median price for newly built homes was $292,700, compared to $228,700 for existing homes, according to NAR. A new home comes with such perks as being move-in ready and giving you the option of customizing the interior. On the other hand, an existing

Buying a Move-in-Ready Home vs. a Fixer Upper By – Bill Rawlings, Vice President/Managing Broker, North Atlanta Atlanta Fine Homes Sotheby’s International Realty Before purchasing a home, most homebuyers have the ideal living space already planned out. However, when trying to search through multiple choices in the market, it is easier for a buyer to become overwhelmed. Homebuyers are faced with many important decisions throughout the pro-

cess, including choosing between a move-in-ready home and a fixer upper.

There are many pros and cons for each and RAWLINGS the decision depends on the buyer’s needs and vision to create the perfect living space.

New homes have the advantage of being reliable and structurally sound. Also, having a home that is movein-ready typically guarantees an easier transition into a new living space. Saving up for a move-in-ready home can be quite daunting; it will obviously be more expensive as everything in the home is already customized for comfortable living.

A down side for some buyers is that there is no room for creativity once you have bought a home already renovated with new appliances and painted rooms. Many of the move-in-ready homes are de-

Outdoor: Continued from Page 24 investments and make sure they stay protected for years to come.

For areas that experience extreme weather, it’s best to store furniture and cushions indoors to prevent snow accumulation or cover them with a water-resistant material to prevent damage from the elements. For milder climates, protect smaller outdoor wooden items, such as garden boxes, birdhouses and wooden benches, by sealing with Thompson’s WaterSeal Waterproofing Wood Protector—Clear Aerosol.

Before the first freeze, move plants that can be easily transplanted indoors. Outdoor planters that are too big to bring inside can be wrapped with a heavily insulated material, like burlap, and moved to an area of the space that will allow them to still get enough direct sunlight.

• Clean Your Grill: Thoroughly clean the racks of your grill with a grill brush and coat the burners and other metal parts with cooking oil to repel moisture and prevent rust. If it’s a gas grill, turn it on and let the last of the gas burn off. Remove the tank from a propane grill and store outdoors, away from the house.

Tape a plastic bag over the gas

signed much like many other modern homes around the neighborhood.

A fixer upper has the potential to become a dream home for a lot less, if the buyers are up for the challenge! A fixer upper can essentially be a blank canvas for a creative buyer. However, depending on the amount of repairs a house may need and how imaginative the buyer is, a fixer upper can require a substantial amount of renovation. In some cases there can also be structural surprises that can cost the buyers more than they have planned in their budget.

Bottom line is that a new home that requires little to no renovation can save a buyer time by just unpacking and moving in within just a few days.

While on the other hand a fixer upper can take extra time, but can also have a distinguishable and attractive appeal for a lot less. The decision can only be made based off of the buyer’s individual skills, amount of money and allotted time. line opening to keep curious critters from nesting there. No matter the grill type, a heavyduty vinyl cover should keep it safe and dry all winter long.

• Defend the Surface: Heavy foot traffic, barbecue grill stains and exposure to the elements can not only ruin the deck’s appearance, but also create the perfect environment for the growth of mold and mildew. HGTV/DIY network star Jeff Wilson notes that these conditions make it important to thoroughly clean the remnants of a summer well spent and get your deck ready for winter. And it’s the perfect time of year to tackle this outdoor project with the heat of summer giving way to cooler fall temperatures.

Coating your deck with a premium product like Thompson’s WaterSeal Penetrating Timber Oil not only nourishes and beautifies wood with a unique triple blend of fastabsorbing oils, but it also includes waterproofing protection against ice, snow and sleet that can penetrate an unprotected surface and cause splitting and cracking of the wood.

Taking the time to winterize your outdoor living space will not only protect your investment, but it will also give you peace of mind knowing that your decorating and designing efforts made during the warmer months will not go to waste because of harsh winter elements.

NFCC: Continued from Page 8 untangle multiple bins of cords and organize and transport milk crates to hold donated goods. Basically, we offered some much-needed helping hands.

It may not seem like much to us, but I know the workers at NFCC were appreciative of our efforts.

The important thing to re-

member about this is not how good it feels to do something selfless, or how important it is to help needy nonprofits and families. Rather, it is how important it is to make time to do these things. Any one of us could easily have complained that we couldn’t find time in our work schedules to spend hours volunteering. We all had deadlines galore, so that would be true. But, just as with anything else, if you don’t make the time, you’ll never have the time. Make an effort, set aside

an hour or two every now and then and give a little time to people who need it.

There was a quote on the wall at NFCC. I can’t recall who said it, but the gist was to be the change you want to see in the world. It’s easy to say the world needs to be a better place, but until everyone pitches in and actively works to make that happen, not much will change.

More than 150 fencers expected at Pinecrest tournament Fencing debuts in 2015 as varsity sport at the PreK3-12 grade Catholic school

This year, Pinecrest expects to welcome between 150 and 175 fencers and their families to the Oct. 31 Tournament.

Admission to the event is free and the community is welcome to attend.

While Pinecrest Academy has fielded a fencing team for four years, the team debuts in 2015 as an official varsity sport at the private PreK3-12 Catholic school.

The Paladins team is comprised of 15 fencers and is coached by Dr. Chad Morris.

CUMMING, Ga. — The Pinecrest Academy fencing team will host the school’s second Georgia High School Fencing League (GHSFL) Tournament Oct. 31 from 7 a.m.-5 p.m.

The Pinecrest Paladins will welcome the following area high schools to the event: Cambridge, Chattahoochee,

Dunwoody, Lassiter, Milton, North Springs, Northview, Roswell and South Forsyth.

These schools, including Pinecrest, represent half of the member schools of the Georgia High School Fencing League (GHSFL).

Last fall, 138 fencers from area schools participated in the Pinecrest tournament.

Pinecrest fencer, Claire Rivard, battles it out with her opponent at a fencing tournament at Alpharetta High School on Oct. 3.

Dr. Chad Morris, Pinecrest Academy Fencing Coach, confers with fencer Cristobal Urzua, at a recent fencing tournament.

Pinecrest fencer, Thomas Ansley, takes on his opponent at a fencing event at Centennial High School in September.

Gauthreux, Mocarski named XL212 studentathletes of month ALPHARETTA, Ga. – Mikaela Gauthreux and Brian Mocarski were honored as the XL212 Student-Athletes of the Month (SAM Award) at the Greater North Fulton Chamber of Commerce February Eggs & Enterprise Breakfast Tuesday, Sept.22, 2015. The SAM award recognizes the outstanding accomplishments of deserving Student-Athletes in the greater North Fulton area. Winners are chosen from nominations made by area athletic directors and coaches, and based on extraordinary academic proficiency, exceptional athletic accomplishments, and dedication to civic action.

Mikaela Gauthreux, a senior volleyball player from Johns Creek High School, was named the Female Student-Athlete of the Month for September. As of the date of the award, Gauthreux had 809 kills, 102 blocks, 597 digs and 129 aces. She selected to the All-Area team her sophomore and junior years. She was awarded the Johns Creek HS volleyball team’s Best Defen-

sive Player Award her junior year.

Off the court, Gauthreux received the Scholar Athlete award her past two seasons on the Varsity team. She is an active member of the Fellowship of Christian Athletes, Young Life and the Gladiator Army.

“She is always the first player on the court and the last player off,” said Coach Beth Stephens. “Whether setting up or taking down the nets or just shagging balls she does whatever it takes. She understands that the team plays like they practice so she goes all out which only makes both her and her teammates better and more prepared for the their opponents. Mikaela is a smart volleyball player who truly knows the game and knows what she needs to do to be successful.”

Brian Mocarski, a junior football player from Holy Spirit Preparatory School, is the Male Student- Athlete of the Month for September. Through the first three games of the season he was 15 of 30 passing for

269 yards and two passing touchdowns. He also had 116 yards rushing with three rushing touchdowns. As the QB, he has led his team to within 4 yards of the all-time team rushing record in a game, with 352 yards versus Monsignor Donovan in the Catholic Cup Game.

Mocarski is in the top 10 percent of his class at Holy Spirit Prep and is involved in a number of on and off cam-

pus activities. He attended the Saint Joseph's Cohort Appalachian summer service trip to Tennessee to help build homes for people in need. He is also a member of Delta Omega, a boys’ service fraternity.

“He is a quiet and calm leader, who leads by example,” said Coach David Rosenzweig.

“No one ever has any bad words to say about him. His teammates all admire him and play with a certain confidence

knowing he's with them on the field. He had to learn a brand new offense over summer practices. I already have full trust in him to run our new offense.

He is an exceptional studentathlete who maximizes his abilities on and off the field.

When he graduates it will be a true loss to our community and we will miss his wonderful example of a Holy Spirit Prep student.”

BT volleyball team exercises integrity ROSWELL, Ga. - Integrity takes courage and a sense of self that supersedes all external pressures to take the easy way out and to win at all costs.

With that understanding, the Blessed Trinity volleyball team initiated “The Integrity Project,” instilling in its players that without integrity life is much harder and the price paid too high.

In November of 2014, BT’s volleyball coach, Paul Stevens, along with Wesleyan‘s volleyball coach Ted Russell, made a presentation at a coaches meeting where “The Integrity Project,” or TIP as they call it, was introduced.

“As volleyball coaches, we are called to do more than just teach our players about the game,” said Stevens. “We are

called to teach them about life.

The lessons that our players learn from us in our practices and during our matches are ones they will take with them for the rest of their lives.”

Last month, one volleyball player, BT sophomore Olivia Dukat, found herself faced with an integrity call during a particularly tense moment of the 2015 Georgia Challenge tournament. Dukat called a tip on herself on match point resulting in a 15-13 Norcross win rather than a 14-14 tie.

Blessed Trinity did not advance in bracket play.

“Instinctively, I immediately reacted and called my own touch on the ball,” remembered Dukat. “After the play was already over, I felt disappointed in myself that I had

lost the game for my team, but I knew I had made the right decision.”

While Dukat might have blamed herself for the loss, her teammates and Stevens rallied around her reminding her that her point was no more important than the other 14 points lost.

“I distinctly remember Coach Stevens pulling us into the huddle and saying ‘who can tell me what happened on the third point on the last set?’

None of us could remember,” said senior volleyball captain Remy Smith. “He said ‘exactly, that is not the point that lost us the game. It is not worth any more than the prior 14 points we lost.’ He was right.

We did not lose that game because of an honor call.”

Stevens said that the rest of the team was supportive and understanding.

While it might be difficult to make a split second decision and a player may not consciously be able to think through the decision process in the heat of play, for Dukat, the benefits of preserving her integrity, her team and her school, is worth it.

“Winning a particular game or a certain point is less important than the overall lessons that we learn when we are part of a team,” she reflected. “Winning isn’t everything, it’s how you get there that matters.”

—Zenzele Price-Richardson

Blessed Trinity sophomore, Olivia Dukat shares about the effect “The Integrity Project” had on her.

Team USA competes in Veteran’s World Championship MILTON, Ga. – Over 845 Veteran Division wrestlers, who are all over 35 years old, from 46 countries converged to compete in the original Olympic sport of wrestling in Athens, Greece.

Among the competitors was Milton resident, John Hanrahan. At age 55, this was Hanrahan’s first entry into the Veterans World Championships. He secured wins over his opponents from Greece,

Iran and Turkey before losing to four-time Olympian, Jose Betancourt of Puerto Rico.

Hanrahan’s hope for a bronze medal were subsequently gone when he dropped a match where his disputed call went unchallenged for a formal review. The bronze went to an opponent Hanrahan had defeated earlier this year in Las Vegas and Hanrahan finished with an official World Rank of seventh. Three additional Atlanta-based “U.S. Wrestling Club” members took part in the Olympic event. Eric Cluck of Cumming had a first round loss to his Russian opponent.

Ed Paladino from Johns Creek, led for most of his first round against Slovakia. Dan Studenic, from Alpharetta, with a second degree adductor rupture to his left leg, suffered a devastating loss to his Russian opponent in the first round of the competition.

Alpharetta High School hosts 21 French exchange students ALPHARETTA, Ga. – Twenty-one French exchange students from the Lycée Saint-Jean Hulst in Versailles, France, are experiencing American culture and high school through an exchange organized by AHS French teacher, Katherine Rozei and SaintJean Hulst English teacher Bénédicte Applegate.

The French students are staying Oct. 19-29 with AHS host families and shadowing their host brother or sister’s class schedules.

In addition to interacting with AHS French classes and taking other academic classes with their host student, the French high schoolers have made an appearance on the AHS Morning Show, attended their first football game and compared their systems of student government with the AHS Student Government. They also learned how to trick-or-treat at an after-school French Club Halloween party.

On two different days, the French exchange students took field trips to Atlanta to visit the Martin Luther King Center, the World of Coke, the Atlanta History Center and CNN. Alpharetta students will go to Lycée Saint-Jean Hulst in April to learn about French culture and schools.
