SUWANEE, Ga. — A man reported he was scammed out of more than $1,000 May 1 when he purchased home theater equipment from a man in a parking lot of the Wells Fargo bank on Johns Creek Parkway. The male victim said as he was approaching the bank, a vehicle parked next to him and a man got out and told him he was selling home theater systems. The man claimed that he had purchased 10 theater systems but had two extra ones which he would offer at a discount.

The victim was told that the theater systems were valued at around $10,000 each but the suspect was willing to sell the

two for a total of $1,500. He then handed the victim brochures about the products.

The victim paid the suspect the money in cash before receiving six boxes of product.

When the victim arrived home, he immediately examined the boxes and through online research discovered the total value of the products was around $100. The product received included two speakers, two projectors and two project screens with the model title, Odyssey VT20.

The victim provided authorities with the suspect’s driver’s license and vehicle tag. A case number was then filed.

All crime reports published by Appen Media Group are compiled from public records. Neither the law enforcement agencies nor Appen Media Group implies any guilt by publishing these names. None of the persons listed has been convicted of the alleged crimes.

The owner stated that the suspect is a black male in his early to middle 30s. He had a beard and was wearing all black. No video footage of the incident could be recovered. A front license plate of the suspect vehicle was recorded.

Customer raids tip jar after dispute over meal

Homeowner reports theft after cleaners finish work

SUWANEE, Ga. — Deputies responded to a silent holdup alarm May 9 at the Subway restaurant on McGinnis Ferry Road.

The female manager informed the deputy that three men had entered the store and purchased food. One of the men approached the front counter demanding a refund because the meat tasted strange. A male employee refused to issue a refund but told the suspect that a substitute sandwich would be made. The suspect became upset and continued to argue with the owner while his two companions left the restaurant.

After not receiving a refund, the suspect grabbed cash from the tip jar before quickly fleeing the store and running toward the Publix nearby. There was $50-60 in cash taken from the jar. The other two males followed him in a truck.

CUMMING, Ga. — A homeowner on Rose Creek Drive reported the theft of jewelry May 13, several days after he had contracted a carpet cleaning service.

The victim told authorities that two males from the cleaning company had worked at the house May 8. A few days later, he noticed that a black box in his bedroom had markings indicating a failed attempt to pry it open. He then checked the dresser drawers where his mother’s jewelry and his ring were located. The jewelry was gone.

The victim quickly called the company and spoke with the owner to report the incident. The company owner informed the victim that his own son was the employee responsible for cleaning his residence. He then became angry and hung up. Multiple rings, birth stones and a tennis bracelet were reported stolen for a total value of around $4,000.

The empty plastic bags that contained the jewelry were taken into evidence. The victim is unsure of anyone else who could have entered the residence besides his daughter.

Man reports theft of truck loaned to his girlfriend GAINESVILLE, Ga. — A man reported his truck was stolen May 14 while it was on loan to his girlfriend on Truman Mountain Road in Gainesville.

The victim said he received a phone call May 6 from a friend informing him that the truck was no longer parked outside his ex-girlfriend’s home. He quickly called her and was told she assumed that he had taken it back.

After finding the title for the truck, he reported the vehicle stolen and posted a $1,000 reward. Someone called the victim and told him that a similar vehicle was posted on a Facebook page for selling cars.

He then called his ex-girlfriend to inform her that the vehicle had been reported stolen and noticed that the Facebook post had been deleted soon after the phone call.

The title for the vehicle was provided to authorities, and the owner said he would like to press charges if the suspect is identified.

Police arrest motorist in neighborhood pursuit MILTON, Ga. — A Milton man was arrested for driving under the influence of drugs and failure to maintain lane May 10 after officers pursued him through neighborhoods.

The driver was observed crossing the center line twice, according to the police report. While the officer followed the driver, he attempted to turn into another neighborhood, but it had a gated entrance and he was forced to turn around.

The officer then conducted a traffic stop.

The man said he turned into the first neighborhood to avoid the officer because he “did not like blue and red lights” and had been to jail recently.

According to the report, the man showed signs of intoxication and was arrested for DUI-drugs.

CUMMING, Ga. — Forsyth County government, education and business leaders have announced the launch of Forward Forsyth, an entity committed to fostering the county’s new Strategic Economic Plan.

Forward Forsyth is a partnership of Forsyth County Government, the Chamber of Commerce, the Forsyth County Development Authority, the Forsyth County School System and the county’s higher education institutions.

The strategic plan, adopted by the Forsyth County Commission in 2018, identified target industries: e-commerce, data services, technology, healthcare and advanced manufacturing, to name a few. It also promoted action items like convention center development, development of commercial product in north Forsyth County, mixed-use developments, efficient regulatory processes and other items.

“The new partnership is really designed to provide leadership, oversight and guidance to the execution of the economic development plan and to provide all of us an opportunity to communicate and chat with each other a little better,” said Chamber President James McCoy. Forward Forsyth was ceremonially “open for business” as leaders gathered during the annual State of Forsyth County Address May 8 at the Forsyth Conference Center.

In her address, Commission Chairman Laura Semanson noted the need to continue to move the community forward…and economic development as the mechanism to do that.

County approves settlement with contractor on road projects

By CONNER EVANS newsroom@appenmediagroup.com CUMMING, Ga. — The Forsyth County Board of Commissioners considered settling disputes with contractor C.W. Matthews over issues relating to work on two major road projects.

At their regular meeting May 16, commissioners heard a report from County Attorney Ken Jarrard detailing work delays and other complications relating to widening projects on Sharon Road and Union Hill Road.

The company has filed complaints about delays caused by weather and brush ups with utility companies, the county attorney said, and he has tried to work out an arrangement whereby work can continue without further delays.

C.W. Matthews was granted a $208,226 contract with the county in January to work on widening Sharon Road. The proj-

The project was set for completion in March, then was allowed an extension to Aug. 5.

Claims have been filed on both sides in the dispute between C.W. Matthews and the county, and just recently, while working on Sharon Road, construction workers struck a pipe that Chairman Laura Semanson said she saw spewing water when she drove by this past week.

$400,000 with the stipulation that all lanes on both projects be open for motorists by Aug. 31. The county also agreed to allow the company a seven-day work week and extended workday hours.

It erases all past claims between the contractor and the county, including damage to the county’s water pipe, which county crews repaired.

“We have attempted as best we can to leverage this issue to achieve both fairness, equity and an accelerated time frame on Sharon to include literally modifying the construction path and allowances on Sharon to get that project done,” Jarrard said.

The measure passed by a vote of 5-0.

SCHOOLS

School district breaks ground on county’s 7th high school

Forsyth cracks down on school zone safety

By ADAM DARBY adam@appenmediagroup.com

By ADAM DARBY adam@appenmediagroup.com

GAINESVILLE, Ga. — Forsyth County Schools celebrated the official groundbreaking for its seventh traditional high school May 21.

East Forsyth High School will be located at 8910 Jot Em Down Road in Gainesville and is expected to open in fall 2021. Contractor Carroll Daniel and Superintendent Jeff Bearden spoke to commemorate the event before the traditional shovel and dirt picture was taken.

It’s been a long process getting to the point of turning the first shovel of dirt on the site.

The district purchased the property in 2007, but construction was postponed due to the economic recession the following year. The project was revived as part of the 2018 voter-approved bond referend um. At its March meeting, the Forsyth County Board of Education unanimously approved an $85 million construction bid to build the school.

“With 39 current schools, the

groundbreaking is monumental in the construction of our seventh traditional high school,” said Forsyth County Schools’ Communications Facilitator Hannah Samples. “East Forsyth High School is projected to… relieve overcrowding at existing schools and to meet the needs of future growth.”

Denmark, which opened in 2018, is the county’s most recent traditional high school, coming in at a cost of $72 million.

Much of the cost increase for East Forsyth High comes from the higher amount of structural steel framing.

Structural steel underwent a 25 percent tariff imposed by the Trump Administration in 2018 for all countries except Australia and Argentina.

After years of anticipation, residents are happy to see that East Forsyth High School is finally on its way to help balance the student population.

Overcrowding has been one of the largest complaints throughout much of the county’s school system.

“We look forward to seeing the campus come to fruition over the next two years,” Samples said.

CUMMING, Ga. — Forsyth County Schools is taking a closer look at school bus safety procedures as the school year winds down.

The district is pushing stricter enforcement on child safety precautions for students and parents. Students are being informed of the steps required for safety when exiting the bus at their stop.

“This is an annual reminder for our parents. Since we grow with around 1,800 new students annually, it helps to remind our parents and guardians, especially those that are finishing their first year with us,” said Jennifer Caracciolo, Forsyth County Schools spokeswoman. “For many years, we have had a strong partnership with local law enforcement, from School Resource Officers to bus safety. Additionally, our bus drivers actively educate students on safe bus stop and safe bus rider practices. When you are transporting precious cargo, bus safety is important to all on the roads.”

When residents voiced concerns over the careless driving seen around school zones and bus stops, authorities cracked down on unsafe traffic behavior that could endanger students. The schools work with the Sheriff’s Office to eliminate dangerous scenarios and reckless driving.

“Although the Sheriff’s Office conducts school zone enforcement year round, we decided to concentrate more officers within the school zones to remind our citizens to slow down,” said Cpl. Kevin Pittman, Traffic Unit supervisor. “We conducted school zone enforcement in many schools throughout the

county and prioritized our school zone enforcement based on complaints, traffic volume and amount of unsafe driving violations observed.”

The program was conducted over the course of five days earlier this month with noticeable results. Among many violations, the effort resulted in 114 speeding warnings and 91 speeding citations. Parents and residents have responded positively to the heightened enforcement and the Sheriff’s Office has received notable praise both on-site and through their Facebook page. Pittman said heightened monitoring of school zones will continue.

“Concentrating on unsafe driving behavior in school zones is essential to basic traffic safety. It also sets a reminder early for our new teen drivers ensuring they slow down and respect the speed limits,” Pittman said.

North Fulton remembers fallen police officers

By JULIA GROCHOWSKI julia@appenmediagroup.com ALPHARETTA, Ga. — Dozens of North Fulton residents and police officers gathered at Brooke Street Park May 17 to honor and remember six Georgia officers who died last year in the line of duty.

“Today’s ceremony is all the more poignant, because just six days ago, another Georgia officer, Sgt. Kelvin Ansari of the Savannah Police Department, was killed in the line of duty,” said Alpharetta City Councilman John Hipes. “When an officer dies, we need to remember that person is more than a name and a badge number, more than a headline in the news. That person is a son or a daughter and may be leaving behind grieving parents. That person may be the parent of children, who won’t have a mom or dad…

“Today, we are remembering people who had full, rich lives, in and out of uniform.”

Representatives from all North Fulton police departments and the Cobb County Police Department were at the ceremony, a tradition which the City of Milton started last year.

The ceremony was part of National Police Week, May 12-18, to remember

Six doves are released during the May 17 Peace Officer Memorial Ceremony in honor of the Georgia police officers who died in 2018 in the line of duty. fallen officers through events and vigils. “[Their names] are forever etched as a stark reminder of those who died on American soil so that justice and peace may persevere for all,” said George Gordon, representative of the Alpharetta Department of Public Safety.

Alpharetta Chief of Public Safety John Robison remarked that police officers lead a unique and dangerous profession that is one of the most highly scrutinized careers.

“It does not matter if it’s in a city with a high crime rate or city like all of the North Fulton cities with low crime rates,” Robison said. “Ultimately, any

officer that puts on the uniform, a badge and a gun go to work every day with the possibility of making the ultimate sacrifice, just like the six officers that we’re honoring today had to do.”

Representatives from the Johns Creek, Milton, Roswell and Sandy Springs police departments read out the memorials for the six officers.

Georgia’s six officers who died in the line of duty last year are: • Officer Chase L. Maddox of the Locust Grove Police Department, who died after being shot Feb. 9, 2018 while assisting two deputies from the Henry County Sheriff’s Office serve a warrant.

• Officer Anthony Christie of the Savannah Police Department, who died May 25, 2018 after his patrol car was struck by a tractor-trailer at the scene of an accident. He was a U.S. Navy veteran.

• Chief Francis A. McClelland, Jr. of the Ludowici Police Department, who died Sept. 15, 2018 after he was struck by a vehicle being pursued by other officers.

He was a U.S. Air Force veteran of the Vietnam War. • Officer Antwan D. Toney of the Gwinnett County Police Department, who died Oct. 20, 2018 after he was shot when investigating a suspicious vehicle.

• Officer Edgar I. Flores of the DeKalb County Police Department, who died Dec. 13, 2018 after he was shot during a traffic stop.

• Officer Michael W. Smith of the Henry County Police Department, who died Dec. 28, 2018 after he was shot while attempting to disarm a man.

“This job is emotionally, physically and mentally draining like no other job,” Robison said to the assembled police officers. “When you’re fighting the ills of society day in and day out, it can take its toll… But if you can’t find any other reason, always give your all every day you come to work in memory of those officers who have laid down their lives.”

Cities gear up for Memorial Day observance NORTH ATLANTA, Ga. — Memorial Day is fast approaching, and North Atlanta cities are expecting thousands to turn out this year.

Here’s a brief rundown of some of the local ceremonies on tap: Roswell The City of Roswell, in partnership with the Roswell Rotary Club, is widely known for hosting the largest Memorial Day Ceremony in Georgia, regularly attracting 6,000-7,000 people. This year marks the 22nd anniversary of the annual Roswell Remembers Memorial Day Ceremony which will feature its second ever female guest speaker — Air Force Col. Patricia Blassie.

She’s best known helping identify her brother, 1st Lt. Michael Blassie, as one of the service members from the Vietnam War buried at the Tomb of the Unknowns, said David Young, co-chair of the Roswell Remembers Memorial Day Ceremony.

The program includes a presentation of colors, laying of the wreath, 21-gun salute and “Taps.”

Attendees are asked not to bring pets.

After the ceremony, attendees can enjoy a picnic on the grounds with live

music by the Chuck Nation Band.

The ceremony will be held rain or shine starting at 10 a.m. on Monday on City Hall Grounds, 38 Hill St. For more information and the full program, visit roswellmemorialday.com.

Alpharetta Meanwhile, in Alpharetta, the city and the Rotary Club of Alpharetta will host the fifth annual Memorial Day Tribute on Monday, beginning with music at 9 a.m. at City Hall, 2 Park Plaza.

The program will include an invocation, posting of colors, Pledge of Allegiance, National Anthem, laying of the wreath, rifle salute and “Taps.”

Keynote speaker for the event is

Brig. Gen. Thomas H. Blackstock Jr., who, over his 30-year military career, has completed assignments in Saudi Arabia, Central America and Afghanistan. He has been awarded more than 30 decorations and badges, including a Defense Superior Service Medal, a Bronze Star and Meritorious Service Medal.

Alpharetta City Councilman and Rotarian John Hipes said the idea behind the Memorial Day Tribute began in 2009 when he attended the Roswell Memorial Day Ceremony.

“I was very impressed by Roswell’s ceremony and thought Alpharetta should hold its own ceremony given the importance of Memorial Day,” Hipes said.

That idea didn’t come to fruition until some five years later when Hipes moved to downtown Alpharetta and noted how the new Brooke Street Park behind City Hall would offer the perfect venue for such an event.

Milton Milton will host a Memorial Day ceremony on May 27 from 10 a.m. to noon at Freedom Park, 13200 Deerfield Parkway. The event will feature a guest speaker, a presentation by the Milton

Public Safety Color Guard, local musicians and a roll call of Milton’s fallen veterans.

The Milton Veterans Memorial Markers will also post memorial crosses on display throughout the city.

Cumming The City of Cumming will hold its annual Memorial Day ceremonies on Friday, May 24 starting at 11 a.m. The ceremony will be located at 301 Veterans Memorial Blvd. All families are welcome to come out and remember the veterans who gave their lives for their nation.

Brig. Gen. Reginald Neal of the Georgia Army National Guard will deliver the keynote address.

The national flags flown for the event will have been donated by family members of deceased veterans who served in the U.S. Military. The Avenue of Flags Dedication will be conducted by Master of Ceremonies Don Weldon.

The ceremonies will close with a rifle salute, “Taps” and a white dove release.

Data center nearly doubles its footprint in Alpharetta

By PATRICK FOX pat@appenmediagroup.com ALPHARETTA, Ga. — Alpharetta’s tech resume grew by more than a football field this week with the opening of a new addition to the Flexential campus off Windward Parkway.

The 70,000-square-foot, 2-story expansion is the Atlanta Region’s largest this year and increases Flexential’s Alpharetta footprint by close to 67 percent and its national data center footprint to 3.1 million square feet. The company operates 41 such data centers throughout the country.

Flexential is a relatively new name on the tech landscape, having formed in 2017 with the merger of Peak 10 and ViaWest. The company draws on local talent to create and maintain a facility that provides multi-layered security and redundancy for the space it provides to IT systems from an array of companies.

“Alpharetta’s obviously been a significant area of economic development which ultimately makes it a good environment for us to develop a data center footprint,” said Flexential CEO Chris Downie.

“We make sure it is powered as well as cooled in a manner that makes a good environment for computer infrastructure,” Downie said. “Even if there’s a disruption in the local utility, they need to stay up and running all the time so our customers’ businesses can stay up and running all the time.”

The Atlanta area has been one of the more active markets for data center development, he said, primarily because of its relative low cost, access to reliable power and growing economy.

CHEWS TO SUCCEED LUNCH & LEARN

Two elements dominate the heart of the center, according to Flexential Regional Vice President Tim Langan.

Security, both physical and network, is key to companies who lease space for their equipment at the facility, Langan said. Flexential incorporates more than half a dozen protocols, from the front gate to the interior computer cabinets, to ensure only authorized personnel have access. The systems, themselves, employ the latest security applications.

The equipment, much of it computer

servers, is protected with a state-of-theart cooling system — or air handlers — that operate by running cooled water over fins, much like a car radiator.

Redundancy is a second element key to operations. All the systems — the cooling, the power, the security — are reinforced to ensure complete reliability, a feature Langan referred to as “table stakes” in the effort to attract and maintain customers. That effort, he said, includes a local investment in the tens of millions of dollars.

“We’re making a big bet on Atlanta, North Fulton and Alpharetta,” he said.

Alpharetta Economic Development Manager Matthew Thomas said the expansion is good news for the local economy.

“Because of Flexential’s multi-tenant, multi-user format, a variety of companies will now find Alpharetta even more desirable for their future investment and growth,” Thomas said. “In addition to new jobs created, Flexential brings a much-needed service that enables companies to innovate and grow.”

One of Flexential’s longest standing financial services customers, Delta Community Credit Union, says it depends on the Alpharetta location to quickly and securely serve its nearly 400,000 members.

“As Georgia’s largest credit union, we gain tremendous confidence and benefits through the geographical placement of Flexential’s connected data centers, which deliver the highest level of security and reliable service for our members,” said Chad Jaenke, vice president for IT Operations and Technical Support.

“Every person we work with at Flexential is knowledgeable, responsive and genuinely cares about the success of our business.”

The Goat Farm isn’t what you think I first heard of the Goat Farm during our recent Super Bowl when it hosted a number of music acts to help entertain some of the thousands of people that flooded our city. I thought it was just a quirky name for a music venue. Then today I read an article about its “$250 million renovation” and I was forced to look again.

It turns out this is an arts center Geoff smith housed in a number of industrial Assurance Financial, gsmith@lendtheway.com buildings from the 1880s in West Midtown. It has studio space for over 300 artists and hosts music concerts, traditional and experimental theatrical performances, film screenings, contemporary dance performances, art exhibitions, art residency programs and professional ballet and contemporary dance classes. Basically, The Goat Farm helps to cultivate artists as well as showcase their talents. But get this: it operates without public funding, donations or grants. It is a for-profit venture. Cultivation of artists and for-profit don’t typically go together like that.

According to an article in Atlanta Magazine, the place was updated to rent out studio and event space.

And when owners Anthony Harper and Chris Melhouse started seeing profits roll in from the facility, they used much of those funds to offer grants to local arts groups and to support ongoing projects within the facility. The internal investment in the projects and people at The Goat Farm led to a huge buzz that fueled a 500-person waiting list for studio space. The demand allowed the owners to take the money they were spending on

SPECIAL

The Goat Farm released plans for a $250 millionredevelopment that will include a new home for the Museum of Contemporary Art of Georgia, a 125-room independent hotel, 80,000 square feet of artist work spaces, new restaurants, an office building and more.

marketing the facility and turn it into more grants to support the arts.

I was fortunate last Friday to be able to attend a men’s group event at my church where Catholic author and speaker Allen Hunt talked to us about the law of the harvest — that you reap what you sow. “If you give of yourself love to others, then you will be surrounded with love. If you want to be surrounded with hate, go out on social media-Facebook, Snapchat and all of that, and put out hate. You’ll see it all come back.”

Hunt was talking about more of a spiritual and personal journey. But to me, it’s like when you buy a new

kind of car, then you start seeing that same car everywhere. I came from Hunt’s speech and started reading about The Goat Farm. By investing a large portion of the profits into the success of its “customers,” The Goat Farm grew in its own success. It’s reaping what it sowed.

Now, because of its success, The Goat Farm released plans for a $250 million-redevelopment that will include a new home for the Museum of Contemporary Art of Georgia, a 125-room independent hotel, 80,000 square feet of artist work spaces, new restaurants, an office building for digital agency Edgar Allan, and “a host of artist-in-residence programs,” according to the Atlanta Business Chronicle. The redevelopment will also include “affordable” apartments so The Goat Farm’s artists can live as well as work there, according to Atlanta Magazine. Based on projections, Goat Farm officials say they are aiming to double the amount of art grants it awards to between 40 and 60 grants totaling $500,000 a year.

The Goat Farm got its name because it is indeed next to a field where goats wander about. But it is farming an artists’ community to be sure. And all around it, small, new developments and businesses are sprouting up and feeding off of its success.

Do careful research before you take on new line of business On the downside, however, is the potential that new products and services may erode revenue growth from your current product line. A key element in deciding to expand your small business by adding new lines of business is to understand the “life cycle” of each of your products and services. Some products or services, which had great revenue growth in the past, may be declining.

Knowing this by tracking sales for each of your product and service lines is critical.

Replacing slow-growing products or services with new lines will generate more growth potential for your small business and will allow you to continue to grow your small business. Many small businesses have gone through this transition many, many times over their history and today are selling a completely different product line than when they started.

When considering adding new lines of business, consider the pros and cons of doing so before pulling the trigger!

Having multiple product or service lines is a definite plus as it relates to diversifying risk and capitalizing on the established reputation of current products and services. The ability to attract different market segments with new lines of business could generate a lot of incremental revenue for your small business.

Hot Topic – Sunscreen in the Bloodstream

By Dr. Brent Taylor Premier Dermatology and Mohs Surgery of Atlanta Recently, an article published in the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA) demonstrated that significant Dr. Taylor amounts of common chemical sunscreens are absorbed into the bloodstream. This finding gained widespread attention and generated a lot of questions from patients and the public about sunscreen safety.

In this study, researchers tested four sunscreen ingredients: avobenzone, oxybenzone, octocrylene and ecamsule. Twenty four (24) healthy volunteers were asked to apply one of these four sunscreens to 75% of their bodies four times per day for four days, and 30 blood samples were collected for 7 days. Researchers found that sunscreen absorption was “significant” for all four sunscreen ingredients. But what constitutes significant? The way that media outlets announced it, you would assume that the levels in the bloodstream were known to be dangerous or harmful. This news was definitely relayed in an alarmist fashion. However, upon close inspection of the article, “significant” in this case means higher than a very low number chosen by the FDA to denote when chemicals need extra testing.

Interestingly, the FDA assumes that chemicals present at concentrations less than 0.5ng/mL in plasma are below the “Threshold of Toxicological Concern.”

According to the FDA, the chance of an unknown compound causing cancer when the compound is at levels below 0.5ng/ mml in plasma is less than 1 in 100,000 in a single dose. As a result, the FDA decided not to require extra testing and safety studies for compounds expected to be present below this level. In the past, many sunscreens have fallen under that exemption. This article, however, now supports that many chemicals in sunscreen might no longer be exempt from further testing and research. But that this article was published is, in my opinion, actually a good thing. Don’t we want to know more about that with which we are basting ourselves?

Sunscreens are getting ever more popular, and the general populations is no longer using a little sunscreen for only those few days spent on a beach trip. In fact, sunscreen ingredients can now be found in a variety of every day products such as make-up, moisturizers, lip balms, hair spray etc. So besides the use of sunscreen during our hobbies, exercise and recreation, we are now using sunscreens

as a part of our go-to daily regime, sometimes without even realizing it.

This JAMA sunscreen study simply proved that certain chemical sunscreens used extensively and frequently are being absorbed at levels higher than the FDA’s limit for when an ingredient doesn’t need safety data. This study is very useful because it prompts the FDA and other public-interest groups to ensure that safety data be collected about chemicals formerly thought to be likely present in miniscule levels. This study is important for helping ensure that we will have more knowledge in the future.

But what do we do now? Well the answer to that is simple, use sunscreen regularly and stay tuned! Sunscreen consumers should be aware that the two major types of sunscreen are “physical blockers” which are zinc oxide or titanium dioxide and “chemical blockers” which include chemicals like those tested in this study. The physical blockers reflect the sun away from the skin, and the chemical blockers absorb UV rays like a sponge, mopping up ultraviolet rays before they can damage the skin. In general, there is good safety data for the physical blockers, but both types have been used for decades with few safety concerns ever arising. Currently, there is a very small amount of data that support that chemical sunscreens might affect certain hormone levels or otherwise be harmful to humans. But most importantly, studies have continuously shown that sunscreen use is associated with lower skin cancer risk and reduced photoaging (looking old because of sun exposure). So even if certain sunscreens might carry certain risks, the known benefits of sunscreen currently outweigh the unknown potential risks of sunscreen use. If someone is nervous about the chemical sunscreens, he or she can always use zinc oxide or titanium dioxide physical blockers instead.

The answer seems clear that we should use sunscreen when we are going to be out in the sun a lot.

Alarmist news can scare people into making bad decisions. For now, when you are in the sun, you should keep using sunscreen and sun-protective clothing.

And this study should be reassuring rather than alarming. It is reassuring to know that researchers and the FDA are gathering data and conducting studies designed to test our assumptions and keep us safe.

If you or a loved one did not use quite enough sunscreen in the past, consider Premier Dermatology and Mohs Surgery of Atlanta. Dr. Brent Taylor is a fellowship-trained Mohs surgeon, boardcertified dermatologist and is certified by the American Board of Venous and Lymphatic Medicine.

Personalized Home Care that nurtures a youthful spirit

Is aging at home a realistic goal after a stroke?

Brought to You by Home Helpers of Alpharetta May is National Stroke Awareness Month. Research has shown that the goal of the majority of individuals is to age in place in the comfort and security of home. But what happens if your older loved one has a stroke? Is aging at home still a realistic goal?

What makes a home accessible?

The severity of a stroke determines how well your loved one can live in their home. Start with the very basics. Is the house designed for a wheelchair? If his home has multiple stories, you may need a stair lift to get from one floor to the next. Are ramps needed to get in and out of the house if the entrance door is not ground level? Are doorways wide enough to allow a wheelchair to get through? Renovations take time. If they take a few weeks to complete, you’ll need to determine an interim living plan.

What help is needed?

After a stroke, your loved one will undergo physical therapy. Some skills like talking, swallowing or walking may need to be learned again. Some of those skills may never return.

Most stroke patients tire easily and will need help with housekeeping, meal preparation or feeding while regaining use of their hand or arm. Many stroke victims need help with showers and personal grooming. Your loved one may experience seizures, have vision difficulties that require them to stop driving, or experience post stroke emotional changes that make them anxious, angry or more easily frustrated.

This may be the best time to consider

extended or live-in care, especially when making the transition back home. If your older loved one is in an assisted living facility, care may also be required until they can progress with their recuperation. A carefully matched, heart-centered professional caregiver from Home Helpers not only helps with all their needed personal care but provides companionship and boosts their spirit to help combat the depression that often follows a stroke.

One-on-one care can be extended as needed round the clock, totally customized and dedicated to their special needs.

The continuity of care a live-in caregiver provides may also be a good option and a major benefit for your older loved one. There are only two caregivers involved, and the warm emotional bonds formed with a carefully selected caregiver can truly help them thrive. With no shift changes during a day, this reliability and constancy can be very calming.

There are many additional advantages to live-in care. Cost savings can be considerable, as live-in care has a daily versus hourly fee. A caregiver needs five hours of uninterrupted sleep and eight hours total sleep for a good night’s rest.

You get the security of 24-hour assistance but don’t pay for sleep time for the caregiver. Your older loved one stays in their home with the familiar belongings and surroundings they prefer, with the privacy and independence they desire.

We know that despite the passing years, each of our clients has a youthful spirit. Engaging that lets us share in the richness of their lives, both past and present. For a free in-home consultation to determine the care that is right for you, contact Home Helpers of Alpharetta today at (678) 430-8511.

WESLEYAN 3, PINECREST ACADEMY 1

Paladins fall in state championship debut

By JOE PARKER joe@appenmediagroup.com POWDER SPRINGS, Ga. — Pinecrest Academy’s first trip to the state finals ended in disappointment with the Paladins dropping their May 16 soccer matchup with Wesleyan at McEachern High School.

“It’s really tough to play the worst half of your season in the first half of the state championship game, and that’s basically what happened,” Pinecrest head coach Domenic Martelli said.

Pinecrest’s first-half struggles began early with Wesleyan scoring just four minutes into the contest on a cutting shot through the box.

After jumping out to a 1-0 lead, the Wolves continued to mount offensive pressure and produce strong scoring chances by slicing Pinecrest’s defensive back line.

Midway through the second half, Wesleyan found the net again. Paladins’ goalkeeper Caroline Jeffcoat made an athletic save on a hard shot in close, but Wesleyan’s Lucy Mitchell caught her own rebound and sent her shot into the net.

After their offense was stymied for 39 minutes, the Paladins cut the deficit with a goal from Ivey Crain with 54

seconds remaining in the half. Pinecrest was awarded a free kick near midfield and Crain broke through Wesleyan’s wall to score with a header.

Crain’s goal was a much-needed lift for the Paladins, and Martelli said the momentum carried into the second frame. However, Wesleyan scored a brilliant goal midway through the second half and kept Pinecrest’s offense at bay.

“We adjusted, we had some life to get that goal at the end of the half, and we came out for the first 20 minutes [of the second half] and were really playing,” Martelli said. “We just couldn’t get a goal and our girls were done. We had two girls with illnesses, and we’re just not deep enough. Without us being on all pistons, it showed.”

Despite the frustrating end to their campaign, Martelli said he was still proud of the season and the program’s first trip to the state finals.

“How could you no be proud, we made it to the state championship for the first time,” he said. “The girls have to understand they gave it their all and there is nothing to be ashamed of. They just know we didn’t have that first half to get them going.”

Martelli is also confident a strong foundation has been set for the Paladins to continue their success.

“We’ve got some great returners, and though we have lost some seniors,

Congratulations to King’s ridge Christian school

I would not think it couldn’t be us and Wesleyan here again next year,” he said.

Pinecrest compiled a 16-4 overall record this year and won the program’s first area championship.

COMMUNITY

Community Connection hears about new tools to help families

By ADAM DARBY adam@appenmediagroup.com CUMMING, Ga. — Forsyth County Community Connection held its monthly Children and Family Stakeholder Lunch event May 20 at the Coal Mountain Community Building at 3560 Settingdown Road. The family lunch is held on the third Monday of every month from August through May as an opportunity for community leaders to come together and collaborate with residents to help local families and children and to address the current needs of the community. The presentation was delivered by the Georgia Family Connection Partnership, a statewide network devoted to the health and well-being of families and their community.

This month’s scheduled topic carried that mission further. The organization discussed the Kids Count data tools. These tools assist in tracking data to ensure that work time is being used efficiently and effectively at school.

“When working with children and family services, it is imperative that we track numbers to see if our work is effective,” said the Forsyth County Community Connection’s Executive Director Sarah Pedarre’. “This also gives us the opportunity to see trends and maybe discover gaps that need to be addressed.”

The Kids Count data tools are available to the general public, but there are some tools only available to the partnership, Pedarre’ said. The luncheon provided members with an overview of the tools and how they can be used.

Pedarre’ said she hopes the luncheon will give attendants the tools to research the needs of those in the area and help volunteers organize to provide assistance.

“Not one organization can fill all the needs in our community,” she said. “It takes all of us, and I truly feel this is the first step to some amazing work our community will do soon.”

Pedarrre’ added that if the organization finds something in the county that generates enough interest, they will schedule another lunch in the fall to dive deeper into the numbers and see how the collaborative can work on the issue together.

Lunch was provided by the partnership of Community Connection and Juvenile Courts. Meeting speakers and agendas are scheduled and organized each month by Community Connection. Families and children of all ages are welcome to come out and support their community leaders.

For more information about each event or if you are interested in presenting at one of these meetings, please contact Sarah Pedarre› at sarah@forsythconnection.org.

Fiesta 5K raises $46,000 for ALS FORSYTH COUNTY, Ga. — Nearly 700 people came out in support for the 13th annual Fiesta 5K Challenge on April 27.

A record fundraising total was set this year as the race raised more than $46,000 for ALS, or amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, research.

May is ALS Awareness Month and the nonprofit organization, Cure for ALS, hosts the Fiesta 5K Challenge each year to begin the month-long advocacy campaign. The 5K race this year began on the track at Fowler Park and proceeded onto the Big Creek Greenway.

Sponsors and fifteen teams of fundraisers helped add to the total dollars raised, working to get donations from family and friends.

All proceeds from the event benefit the Emory ALS Center in Atlanta which studies ALS and treats patients.

The next event for Cure for ALS is the Terrance Mathis Celebrity Golf Classic which will be held on Saturday, Sept. 7 at Legacy On Lanier Golf Club.
