BUFORD — Buford High School’s 2015 homecoming queen got to trade her hospital gown for a sparkling blue sequined one.

Seventeen-year-old senior Rucio Turcios has spent her final year of high school fighting Ewing sarcoma, a type of bone cancer. Despite going through chemotherapy and making frequent hospital visits, Turcios is in class every day she is physically able to attend.

“I told her a couple weeks ago how inspirational she is to me,” Buford High Principal Banks Bitterman said. “She was in the hospital (Thursday)

and she’ll be on the field (Friday). She’s pretty amazing.”

Turcios has been going to Buford City Schools since she was in kindergarten. Her peers nominated her for homecoming court earlier this year, and Friday she was selected as homecoming queen.

She was speechless immediately after recieving her crown, flowers and sash, escorted by her father, Ricardo Ramirez.

“I don’t know what to say,” she said. “It feels amazing that everyone voted for me.”

On Monday, Fernando Perez-Guzman, a 42-year-old with a Georgia Bulldog tattooed on his bicep and the crucifixion on his back, summoned Lawrenceville police to his apartment. With his pastor at his side, he told an officer that his wife, Fernando Perez-Guzman Yamilet Rodriguez, had left home after a late-night argument five days earlier and hadn’t been home since.

Police believe PerezGuzman was lying.

According to a warrant for his arrest released Friday, the Yamilet husband now has said Rodriguez the wife, 28, a mother of two with flowing black hair and arched eyebrows, died from an accidental fall down the stairs while the two were in a tiff.

“During the altercation, the defendant stated that he grabbed the victim as she was attempting to leave their apartment and go down the stairs,” the warrant says. “The defendant concealed the death and transported the victim’s lifeless body to a wooded area behind the defendant’s work.”

Asked how investigators believe Rodriguez died, Capt. Jeff Smith of the Lawrenceville Police Department declined to go into detail Friday.

“All I can say is that we are looking at all of his statements and any inconsistencies that may be therein,” he said.

“As far as the manner of death, we have no information to release at this time.”

True or not, the story Perez-Guzman is telling according to the warrant now stands in stark contrast to the one he reportedly told Monday.

That night, he said he had no idea where his wife went, according to a police report detailing his statement.

“He stated that when she left she

Man convicted on all 22 counts in murder trial

By Joshua sharpe

The question is Duluth man’s murder found whether he’ll ever have a the defendant guilty on all chance at parole.

22 counts Friday night.

Brewner’s attorney, Scott The verdicts, making Drake, maintained during Brian Joseph Brewner, 29, the trial that the man had eligible for a lifetime in been outraged by the Aug. prison, came back at nearly 6, 2014, siege on Schrier’s 7 p.m. Sentencing was to be Summercrest Lane home, a scheduled for a later date, crime that stunned residents according to prosecutor in Duluth. The act, which Nigel Lush. left the victim’s fiancee and Convicted of murder, her 8-year-old daughter joshua.sharpe @gwinnettdailypost.com

wounded, was fueled by rumors that there were five kilograms of methamphetamine in the home.

Lush pulled no punches disputing Brewner’s defense.

He pointed out that it took the supposedly outraged man more than two weeks to call Duluth Police Department detective Bobby Johnson to talk about the case.

“He only came forward to Detective Johnson when the dominoes were falling,” Lush told the jury Friday morning. “He thought he

was being smart by calling the detective.

“It’s too bad he didn’t read up on the law.”

In speaking with Johnson, Brewner, whose four co-defendants are awaiting trial, admitted to introducing some of the men who carried out the home invasion.

Even if that was the extent of his role — which Lush stressed it wasn’t — it was enough to convict him because of Georgia’s party to a crime law, which makes those who plan a crime just as guilty as those who actu-

ally commit it.

“It’s like the getaway driver at a bank robbery,” Lush said, adding: “Even though there might not have been a plan to shoot anybody or kill anybody, whatever happened in (the bank), you’re on the hook for it.”

The defense attorney poked at the state’s case, calling the “star witness” — a man named Jamie Staples, who has a swastika tattoo — a liar. Staples testified to Brewner’s role in the plot.

Lush said he believed Staples was involved in the

case, but authorities didn’t have enough evidence to indict him.

Brewner stared intensely and grasped a blue ink pen, flipping it top-to-bottom slowly, listening to his attorney’s final words trying to save him.

Drake touted Brewner’s decision to call the detective.

“He called Bobby Johnson knowing that Bobby was trying to arrest him,” the attorney said. “He continued to give useful information, truthful information. … He was offended by what these folks did.”

“The signs that will be (put) on Jimmy Carter are permanent, normal signs for the project — I-85, yield, etc.,” Gwinnett Village executive director Chuck Warbington said.

The affected area is largely confined to the Jimmy Carter Boulevard overpass at I-85. The CID and county officials worked together in recent years to convert the overpass to a diverging diamond in an effort to relieve congestion in the area. The new interchange opened this past spring, but crews have been working throughout the summer and fall on finishing touches.

Warbington said the closures will be handled one direction at a time.

Johnson backs ending nursing homes’ forced arbitration U.S. Rep. Hank Johnson joined 26 of his colleagues in calling on the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid to ban the use of forced arbitration in nursing home agreements.

The representatives, all of whom are DemoHank Johnson crats, cosigned a letter to the center’s acting administrator, Andy Slavitt, to outline their concerns that a proposed rule regarding forced arbitration does not go far enough to protect nursing

The group forced arbitration does wants the final rule to say not provide important residents can only enter procedural guarantees of arbitration voluntarily fairness and due process after disputes arise. that are the hallmarks of “This vital distinction courts of law.”

Johnson has been an outspoken critic of forced arbitration and is the lead sponsor of the Arbitration Fairness Act in the House of Representatives. His office said involuntary arbitration clauses are hidden in the fine print of financial and service contracts, and that they prevent consumers — in this case nursing homes residents — from taking companies to court if they believe the business has violated the law.

“We should do everything in our power to protect nursing-home residents, who are often admitted directly from a hospital with existing health conditions, against

abuse,” Johnson said in a statement. “Unless CMS issues a rule that empowers nursing home residents to arbitrate claims after they arise, countless Americans in nursing homes stand to lose access to the courts for every conceivable injury that they could suffer at the hands of unscrupulous care givers and facility operators.”

Johnson, whose district includes southern Gwinnett, is the only member of Georgia’s congressional delegation who signed the letter.

Gwinnett legislators lining up to support presidential candidates Last weekend’s visit from the two leading Republican presidential candidates was a rare double trip into the national spotlight for Gwinnett County, but members of the county’s legislative delegation are getting involved in the race in their own way.

Weeks before Donald Trump and Dr. Ben Carson announced trips to the county, state Sen. P.K. Martin, R-Lawrenceville, and Reps. Buzz Brockway, R-Lawrenceville, and Chuck Efstration, RDacula, put their endorsements behind another Republican running for president: Sen. Marco Rubio, R-Fla. Meanwhile, Sen. Fran Millar, R-Atlanta, has endorsed Ohio Gov. John Kasich in the Republican race and Rep. Tom Kirby, R-Loganville, was recently named the state’s Legislative Committee co-chair for Mike Huckabee’s campaign.

Sen. Steve Henson, DTucker, and Reps. Scott Holcomb, D-Atlanta, and Pedro Marin, D-Duluth, reportedly endorsed Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton earlier this month.

Heart or cough from GERD? DEAR DR. ROACH: My doctor put me on atenolol for occasional racing-heart incidents: In the past five or so years, I’ve experienced only three or four such incidents a year, lasting five to 15 minutes each time. I also have had a cough for years. I have had lung X-rays, a medication trial for asthma and an endoscopy to check for esophageal cancer; none of these panned out. Antihistamines help a little, as do cough drops, but I still cough all the time.

Finally, I saw a new ENT who said it was acid reflux and started me on pantoprazole 40 mg twice a day for a month, then once a day after that. It worked! I was so excited that my cough was finally subsiding! But it came with a price: I was having the heart-racing episodes now at least twice a week. My doctor was skeptical that the pantoprazole was causing this, but he changed to another such drug to take once a day. After starting the new drug, I had two racing-heart problems in one week that lasted 45-60 minutes! I knew it had to be the acidreflux drugs, so I quit taking it. That was in February, and I have not had a single heart-racing problem since.

I still take the atenolol once a day. I simply cannot take a chance with my heart, yet I know I have to get rid of this cough, which must be from acid reflux. I’m afraid of getting esophageal cancer, too. Help!

— M.A.S. ANSWER: Chronic cough can have many causes, but the majority of people will have one of only three: post-nasal drip, asthma or gastroesophageal reflux disease. It’s not uncommon to have some components of more than one.

A trial of medication, such as the antihistamine, asthma inhaler and proton pump inhibitor, like omeprazole or pantoprazole, often is done.

Since you had dramatic improvement with pantoprazole, it’s likely that GERD is the major cause of the cough. But exacerbations of the heart rate are a known side effect of pantoprazole, and it might be due to magnesium deficiency.

This can be tested by your doctor; alternatively, you could ask your doctor about a magnesium supplement to see if that prevents the fast heart rate you experience with pantoprazole.

However, using a medicine to counteract a different medicine’s side effect might not be the best way to handle it. Nonpharmacological treatments, including diet (avoiding excess fat, caffeine, chocolate, carbonated beverages, peppermint and spicy food), lifestyle (no food three hours before bed, raising the head of your bed) and weight loss, if appropriate, can be effective without the risk of medication side effects. Avoid tight clothing, quit smoking, chew gum and practice breathing exercises, as these also can help. If medicines are still necessary, the H2 blockers, like ranitidine (Zantac) and famotidine (Pepcid), are as effective in some people as the PPIs.

“These genetically improved pines are always the first to go because they grow faster, provide more volume and have superior growth characteristics. They won’t last long.”

The commission said the three varieties are traditionally best suited for the Lower Piedmont and Coastal Plains area, but they added any Georgia resident can buy and plant them regardless of where they live in the state.

The seedlings can be bought online at www.gaseedlings. org in packs of 50, 500 or 1,000.

They can also be purchased through local Georgia Forestry Commission office.

The nearest offices are the Winder office, which can be reached at 770-868-4041, or the Coosa District office in Gainesville, which can be reached at 770-531-6043.

Landowners can also call the Flint River Nursery in Byromville, which can be reached at 229-268-7308.

State forestry officials said the Georgia Giants in particular are popular because they produce higher quality wood, and they produce 54 percent more volume per acre than other pine tree varieties by the time they turn six. The costs are $27 for a 50-pack, $46 for a 500-pack and $75 for a 1,000-pack.

The commission said the Elite Straight Loblolly is made from mixing three types of straight, rust resistant tree families. The costs are $24 for a 50-pack, $43 for the 500-pack and $72 for a 1,000-pack.

The Pitch Canker Resistant Slash is a fast-growing, disease-resistant tree, according to the commission. The costs are $23 for a 50-pack, $39 for a 500-pack and $63 for a 1,000-pack.

Atlanta Chamber of Commerce talks airport plans at luncheon By asia ashley Special to the Daily Post

COLLEGE PARK— Hartsfield–Jackson Atlanta International Airport has plans for changes in the near future, guests learned during the Atlanta Area Chamber of Commerce luncheon Friday.

Aviation General Manager Miguel Southwell spoke to nearly 400 guests at the Miguel luncheon, Southwell indicating that as the amount of travellers continue to rise, the airport has prioritized projects and ideas that would make Atlanta an “Airport City” and enhance guest experiences.

Just off of Interstate 85 near the airport entrance, Southwell reviewed proposals for the land should be developed to fit guest needs.

The plans included a service center that includes a gas station, a 4-star hotel with about 400 rooms, a pet hotel and spa, and 200,000 square feet of mixed use development that could be used for office space, retail, or more hotels, he said.

“As you’re entering the airport from I-85, we’re proposing a service center to gas up cars,” he said. “In between the service plaza and hotel, we have an area

capable of being developed into mixed use.

Southwell said there are currently six bidders looking to develop the property.

“We wanted to give developers a perspective of what we’re looking for,” said Southwell. “The (Atlanta) mayor wants it to be the most sustainable airport in the world so you’ll see a lot of green. If the development kicks off, it will be the first in the country.”

The planned addition of a sixth runway is still in the works as discussed in previous years, Southwell responded after receiving a question from the audience, however, difficulties have arisen toward getting it completed.

He explained that in case of inclement weather, new regulations say that three plans have to land simultaneously. And the closest you can have aircraft when landing is about 5,000 feet apart.

At the time the sixth runway was planned, airport officials were looking to locate it on the southside of the airport between the fifth runway and its neighboring runway. With new regulations, if a runway is built at the desired location it would only leave 1,400 feet of space, Southwell said. He said they desire to build the runway on land the airport currently owns.

“We hope by next year there will be a solution that

will enable us to land two planes that close together, but today technology won’t allow,” said Southwell.

Plans have also begun for cargo expansion, with a planned 1.7 million tons of new cargo space within the next five to 10 years to accommodate growth, he said.

In the next month, construction of the one of the several planned cargo buildings will begin.

Since April 2014, there have been five new cargo carriers and two new passenger carriers.

Airport priorities also include enhanced parking decks, greenspace and restrooms. Many of the solid walls in the terminal will also be replaced with glass, to provide guests with a “more relaxing experience,” Southwell added.

The luncheon was held at the Georgia International Convention Center at 2000 Convention Center Concourse in College Park.

The airport is located mostly in unincorporated areas in Fulton and Clayton counties. However, the airport spans into the city limits of Atlanta, College Park and Hapeville.

The Airport Area Chamber of Commerce is a nonprofit organization dedicated to the promotion, development and growth of business and professional activities within the airport area. For more info, visit www.atlantachamber.com

‘Goosebumps’ tops box office on Friday

NEW YORK — Half a dozen Republican presidential candidates are edging toward financial crisis, raising the specter that some may be forced to drop out of the sprawling field of contenders.

They all spent more than they took in during the third quarter, according to campaign finance reports filed on Thursday. The six are Kentucky Senator Rand Paul, former Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee, Louisiana Governor Bobby Jindal, former New York Governor George Pataki, South Carolina Senator Lindsey Graham and former Pennsylvania Senator Rick Santorum.

Together, they raised $6 million but spent more than $9.5 million during the summer on everything from postage to travel to campaign rallies. All six are trailing badly in the polls.

LOS ANGELES — Jack Black starrer “Goosebumps” topped the box office on Friday, edging out new releases “Crimson Peak” and “Bridge of Spies” in addition to formidable holdover “The Martian” in what will continue to be a tight competition through the weekend.

Sony’s “Goosebumps,” based on spooky children’s books by R.L. Stine, took in $7.3 million on Friday in 3,501 locations. Should studio estimates hold, “Goosebumps” will win the weekend with around $25 million.

Texas officials do not have to make it easier for undocumented immigrants to get birth certificates for their children born in the state while a legal challenge proceeds in court, a federal judge ruled.

U.S. District Judge Robert Pitman declined to grant a preliminary injunction on Friday in a civil rights lawsuit filed in May over how Texas is complying with the 14th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, which grants citizenship to any child born on U.S. soil, regardless of parentage.

The issue of U.S. citizenship for children of illegal immigrants has become an issue in the 2016 presidential campaign with Republican candidate Donald Trump questioning the automatic granting of citizenship and Jeb Bush drawing fire for his comments on the issue.

Sources: VW made several defeat devices to cheat emissions ReuteRs BERLIN/LOS ANGELES/DETROIT — Volkswagen made several versions of its “defeat device” software to rig diesel emissions tests, three people familiar with the matter told Reuters, potentially suggesting a complex deception by the German carmaker.

During seven years of selfconfessed cheating, Volkswagen altered its illegal software for four engine types, said the sources,

programs, they said.

The number of people involved is a key issue for investors because it could affect the size of potential fines and the extent of management change at the company, said Arndt Ellinghorst, an analyst at banking advisory firm Evercore ISI. Brandon Garrett, a corporate crime expert at the University of Virginia School of Law, said federal prosecution guidelines would call for the U.S. Justice Department to seek tougher penalties if

numerous senior executives were found to have been involved in the cheating.

“The more higher-ups that are involved, the more the company is considered blameworthy and deserving of more serious punishment,” said Garrett.

VW, Europe’s biggest carmaker, has been criticized by some lawmakers and analysts for blaming a small number of individuals for the banned software installed in up to 11 million vehicles worldwide, even while investigations continue.

Hillary is without real competition

WASHINGTON — I repeat: Unless she’s indicted, Hillary Clinton will win the Democratic nomination. I wrote that six weeks ago amid fevered dreams of a Clinton collapse and a Joe Biden rescue. That those were a mirage is all the more obvious after Tuesday’s debate.

The reason, then as now, is simple: Clinton has no competition.

Charles She’s up against three ciphers and one Krauthammer endearing, gesticulating, slightly unmoored old man. If Joe Biden was ever thinking of getting into the race, he’d be crazy to do so now. It’s over.

Indeed, even before the debate, Clinton’s numbers had stabilized. It began with Kevin McCarthy’s gaffe of the decade. That gave her a perpetual get-out-of-jail-free card that she adroitly deploys whenever the email issue arises. Her technique is flawless: a few meaningless phrases about having made a mistake, taking responsibility and being transparent, blah blah, followed by (I paraphrase) “but look at the larger picture, even Kevin McCarthy admits it’s a partisan witch hunt.” QED. At the debate, Bernie Sanders sealed the deal with a thunderous “the American people are sick and tired of hearing about your damn emails.”

That rendered the issue officially off-limits to all Democrats. File closed. End of story. Of course, it will be featured in the general election, but we’re talking here about her getting the nomination.

In gratuitously granting her absolution, Sanders garnered points for high-mindedness.

But he’d already cornered the high-mindedness market. Sanders was right to call this move dumb politics. His declaration simply and definitively conceded the race to Clinton. Leo Durocher said nice guys finish last. Sanders will finish second, which in this case is the same thing.

Clinton won the debate because it didn’t change the dynamic. It froze the race and she’s far in the lead. It doesn’t matter that her lead has shrunk from 50 points to 20. Twenty points is a landslide.

She remains a lousy candidate but she is an excellent debater — smart, quick, strategic and extremely practiced. Eight years ago she debated Barack Obama 25 times. Tuesday night, she successfully bobbed and weaved and pivoted.

She was at her most impressive, however, when she whacked Sanders upside the head — twice — right out of the box. He didn’t know what hit him.

At the very start, she attacked from the left on gun control, from the right on capitalism. She simply said the magic words — small business, too? — and he beat an unsteady retreat. In general, Sanders was wild and wavy and loud and not very nimble. After all, how much practice do you get when for 35 years you’ve been campaigning as a social democrat in Vermont, America’s Denmark?

Sanders is good on an empty podium taking on invisible billionaires. Put him up against a Clinton and he’s lost.

He did make history of a sort, however. Every debate has its moment — the sound bite that lives forever (or until the next debate, whichever comes first). His “damn emails” thunderbolt is the first such immortal line to be delivered by one candidate that seals victory for another.

The other three candidates hardly registered.

Lincoln Chafee, currently polling at 0.3 points (minus-10 Celsius), played Ross Perot’s 1992 running mate, Adm. James Stockdale, who opened his vice presidential debate with: “Who am I? Why am I here?”

Democratic National Committee Chair Debbie Wasserman Schultz came out a winner. She insisted, despite the squawking of Martin O’Malley and others, on no more than six debates. Who needs the other five? Tuesday night settled the issue. When there’s a knockout in the first round, you stop the fight.

This is not to say that by objective standards — i.e., against minimally competent competition — Clinton did so brilliantly. After all, to prepare the ground and pre-empt any attack from the left, she preceded the debate with a supremely cynical abandonment of both the Keystone XL pipeline and the Trans-Pacific Partnership, which as secretary of state she’d pronounced “the gold standard” of trade deals.

It did smooth her debate night. But by so transparently compounding her inauthenticity problem, the flip-flops will cost her in the general election.

But that’s for later. Right now, game over.

Amid the playacting between today and Clinton’s coronation next summer, we can joyfully savor the most delightful moment of the debate, when we were reminded by Anderson Cooper that Sanders had honeymooned in the Soviet Union.

You can dip me in sugar and call me sour. You can … well, you get my drift. Apparently nothing is sacred in America anymore, and I think it all started when they caught that guy in the queen’s bedroom a few years back.

In case you missed the big announcement, beginning next March — just in time for my 64th birthday — Playboy Magazine will no longer feature — are you ready for this? — nudity. I ain’t making this up y’all. Apparently the iconic men’s magazine is under the impression that men really will buy Playboy for their articles and party jokes.

In case you like to pretend that you have never seen Hugh Hefner’s publication, the first issue came out in December 1953. Marilyn Monroe graced the centerfold and adolescent boys and men who never grew up have been sneaking around looking at it ever since. It was a huge thing when I was in high school to sneak over and steal a glance at the Playboy centerfold under the guise of looking at comic books and Sport Magazine at the old Covington bus station, and I never did get to the point that I felt I was old enough to walk into a place of business and buy the magazine without a

the names, understand — Hef uncovered the girls. Jayne Mansfield, a charter member of the GI Pin-up-girl Hall of Fame, was once a centerfold, as was Dorothy Stratten, who became famous for having been murdered by her husband at the tender age of 20.

I just uncovered In related news, Sports Illus-

trated has decided to discontinue their swimsuit issue and from this point on will only cover games like bridge — which a federal court recently ruled was not a sport — and Chinese checkers, which they will call Asia checkers for fear of offending anyone.

Gun and Ammo magazine will discontinue all stories related to firearms or weaponry or ammunition and will, instead, focus on blades and bows and arrows and improvised explosive devices, which are the only kinds of weapons approved by the Obama administration.

Boys’ Life will discontinue Pee Wee Harris, Pedro and all articles concerning hiking, camping and living out-ofdoors. Democrat Today will no longer write about entitlements or increasing government spending, and Good Housekeeping will change its focus to outdoor living.

Reader’s Digest will no longer publish personal anecdotes and the Atlanta Journal Constitution will become the official organ of the John Birch Society.

Meanwhile, if you are looking for something that will not be changing, try Southern Living.

They sold out to the carpetbaggers years ago.

The next thing you know they will be building civil rights monuments above the Confederate carving on Stone Mountain.

Nobody told God the world was ending EBible Fellowship, a group out of Philadelphia that does all their worshiping online (“All right, users, let us bow our heads and Twitter.”) said recently that the world was going to end on Oct. 7.

Trusting soul that I am, I took them at their word and figured I could skip writing a column this week because chances were pretty good that you would not be around to read it and even if you were, you would likely have other things on your mind — like where you were going to spend eternity.

Now Oct. 7 has come and gone. We are still here and so are the editors who are looking for my column. I am scrambling like mad to pull some subjects and predicates together, along with a few adverbs, some participles, a couple of prepositions and to make sure everything fits the proper syntactic category while tossing in a bunch of commas for good measure. Thanks for nothing, eBible Fellowship.

EBible Fellowship’s founder and leader, a guy by the name of Chris McCann, had seemed pretty sure of himself and of the date. He was quoted as saying, “God destroyed the first Earth” — I was not aware that there had been more than

Dick Yarbrough one Earth. The things you learn worshiping online — “with water, by a flood in the days of Noah and he says he’ll not do that again, not by water. But he does say in 2nd Peter 3 that he’ll destroy it by fire. It’ll be gone forever. Annihilated.”

McCann went on to say, “According to what the Bible is presenting, it does appear that 7 October will be the day that God has spoken of in which the world will pass away.”

Right there I should have been suspicious. I know for a fact that God doesn’t go around revealing scary stuff like that to just anybody and never online.

If He really was going to deepfry the world, chances are that Dr. Gil Watson, the World’s Greatest Preacher, would have known about it first. It is a theological fact that God likes Dr. Gil a lot. And for good reason. Dr. Gil doesn’t go around predicting the end of the world

and embarrassing God, who I am pretty sure will be solely responsible for deciding when to pull the plug on us and not some online Bible bunch in Philadelphia.

You may recall that when Gov. George E. Perdue was dealing with a severe drought in Georgia in 2007, he asked the World’s Greatest Preacher to come to the Capitol to pray for rain. Of course, since it was Dr. Gil doing the asking, God answered his prayer almost immediately and the state has been pretty much mildewed ever since. Even the atheists were rumored to be building an ark, although, unlike Noah, they were having trouble convincing animals to participate with them. There are some things even a goat won’t do.

I am worried that Dr. Gil is going to ask me why I was listening to what some dude in Philadelphia was saying online about the end of the world when I ought to be listening to him on Sunday mornings where I am usually slouched down in my pew looking guilty as — well — sin. I do listen to him; I just don’t always do what he says I should do, which is to be kinder and gentler and more compassionate and more understanding of my fellowman.

I could do that but I consider my role as a perpetual lost sheep to be a public service because as long as I am around, Dr. Gil Watson, the World’s Greatest Preacher, will always have employment. Trying to save my sorry soul is a fulltime job.

Besides, if I got all warm and fuzzy, you might think the world really was coming to an end. (“Hey, Maude, your favorite columnist just said he thinks Obama is doing a terrific job, that school teachers get paid way too much money and that broccoli doesn’t taste all that bad once you’ve eaten a couple tons of the stuff. I always thought the guy was a nutcase.

This proves it.”)

OK, so what happened?

How come Earth isn’t a charcoal briquette, as predicted?

Who knows? I just know that the next time the online worshippers of eBible Fellowship pulls this kind of stunt, I hope God will send them to eternal junk mail and have locusts eat their passwords. Can I get an amen?

the gathered crowd treated her like a celebrity. Other seniors vying for the position of queen ran to her and asked for a photo and a hug, proud of their classmate and her honor.

Turcios is confident in her ability to win her battle with cancer and finish her schooling. Several weeks ago she wrote a speech for her English class about the importance of coming to school.

“God doesn’t give you cancer as a bad thing all the time,” she wrote. “It’s just to show how strong you are. That’s why I know I’m going to beat it.

If some people have the sniffles, they stay home.

I don’t do that. I am just grateful for the chance to go to school and to graduate.”

The new homecoming queen was greeted on the sidelines by her parents and her sister, Nicole, who put a sweater around Rucio’s

shoulders to keep her warm.

Bitterman understands that most high school seniors think only of graduating, but Turcios is dealing with so much more.

“Some people talk about futures and going to college and doing those things; this young lady is fighting for her life,” Bitterman said.

“No matter what, if she beats this fight she’ll be successful in whatever she decides to do.”

Turcios knows that despite the difficulties of facing cancer, she will always have the support of her community.

“I know we’re all family here, we all support each other,” she said. “That’s Buford.”

The husband said she had left him before, once for two weeks, another time for two or three weeks. On both occasions, she took their kids and stayed with one of her sisters.

This time, PerezGuzman said he and the sisters had gone to All American Poly, where Rodriguez worked, to see if she’d been in since Oct. 7. A co-worker reportedly

Among the arrested was Bobby Justin Lynn, a 29-year-old Buford man.

According to a report from Gwinnett police, an IP address traced to his home on Camp Branch Road was used to download and upload child pornography. Lynn, who the report says is employed in the garden center at an unspecified Home Depot, was arrested at the home.

Jail records show he was released Tuesday on $8,850 bond.

SATURDAY

8:30 p.m. on FOX Brooklyn Nine-Nine In “Beverly Hills Cop,” Eddie Murphy’s Axel Foley tells his boss he’s going “deep, deep, deep undercover” — and that’s also what Jake (Andy Samberg) does in the new episode “The Oolong Slayer.” Pursuing a killer, Jake disappears into the case as much as possible, with Holt’s (Andre Braugher) knowledge. Rosa and Amy (Stephanie Beatriz, Melissa Fumero) run up against an old enemy. Terry (Terry Crews) becomes overly occupied with a new interest.

8 p.m. on CW Crazy Ex-Girlfriend Rebecca (Rachel Bloom, who also wrote the script with fellow executive producer Aline Brosh McKenna) encounters a big hurdle to her plan to win Josh (Vincent Rodriguez III) back in the new episode “Josh’s Girlfriend Is Really Cool!” Indeed, there’s another woman in his life, a yoga instructor who quickly becomes the new object of Rebecca’s ... well, obsession. Donna Lynne Champlin, Santino Fontana and Pete Gardner also star.

10 p.m. on NBC Blindspot Rarely are the FBI and the CIA seen in direct competition, but it happens in the new episode “Split the Law.” A hostage crisis with global reach puts both agencies on the trail of a felon. Carter and Mayfair (guest star Michael Gaston, Marianne Jean-Baptiste) clash over their takes on the reliability of Jane (Jaimie Alexander), who is overcome upon being introduced to Weller’s (Sullivan Stapleton) family.

8 p.m. on FOX Rosewood Finding the perpetrator becomes a personal mission for Rosewood and Villa (Morris Chestnut, Jaina Lee Ortiz) after an ex-con is murdered in the new episode “Necrosis and New Beginnings.” Dreams disturb Villa to the point she feels compelled to do something about it. Rosewood’s romance with Kat (guest star Nicole Ari Parker) shifts. Adrian Pasdar and Merle Dandridge (“The Night Shift”) guest star, as does Fox News Channel reporter Anita Vogel as ... a reporter.

8:30 p.m. on ABC The Goldbergs Lainey (AJ Michalka) isn’t happy that Barry (Troy Gentile) remains insecure about the two of them as a couple, so she enlists Erica (Hayley Orrantia) to help set him straight in the new episode “Boy Barry.” The plan backfires, though, leading to a highly unexpected move on Barry’s part. Beverly (Wendi McLendon-Covey) takes drastic action when she doesn’t like the mustache Murray (Jeff Garlin) has grown.

8 p.m. on NBC Heroes Reborn Masi Oka reprises his role from the original series as Hiro in the new episode “Game Over.”

Noah (Jack Coleman) takes his own route in his search for answers. Tommy and Emily (Robbie Kay, Gatlin Green) embark on a journey. Luke (Zachary Levi) has a hard time adjusting to his new reality. Erica (Rya Kihlstedt) gets in the way of Miko’s (Kiki Sukezane) plans.

9 p.m. on CBS Criminal Minds In “Scream,” Rossi (Joe Mantegna) and the other members of the BAU team search for a suspect who may have witnessed abuse as a child. Kate (Jennifer Love Hewitt, who still was on the show when this episode first aired) is worried when her niece, Meg (Hailey Sole), and a friend make plans to meet up with a boy they met online. Greg Grunberg (“Heroes”) guest stars. Thomas Gibson, Shemar Moore and Matthew Gray Gubler also star.

TUESDAY 9 p.m. on ABC Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. Some circumstances make for strange bedfellows, and so it is for S.H.I.E.L.D. and the ACTU in the new episode “Devils You Know.” The organizations partner to find the Inhuman who is murdering others of his — or her, or its — kind. May (MingNa Wen) becomes concerned about the degree of Hunter’s (Nick Blood) personal investment in tracking Ward (Brett Dalton). Blair Underwood and Constance Zimmer guest star.

Clark Gregg and Chloe Bennet also star.

FRIDAY 9 p.m. on CW America’s Next Top Model If you need a breather to catch up on all that’s occurred on this show so far this season, the new episode “And Then That Happened” provides it.

Though a certain percentage of the hour is made up of clips from previous telecasts, they’re underscored by never-beforeseen footage that incorporates some meltdowns ... a phenomenon not unexpected for this series. Host Tyra Banks, Miss J, Kelly Cutrone and Yu Tsai offer commentary.

Hundreds honor Meredith Emerson at Ella’s Run

By Katie Morris

katie.morris @gwinnettdailypost.com

BUFORD — Ella’s Run has always been a bittersweet experience for Julia Karrenbauer, and Saturday’s event was no different.

“I have one goal this year; it’s not to cry in front of all of you, and I’ve been working on it all week, so I’m not going to cry,” Karrenbauer said while addressing a crowd gathered at the Environmental and Heritage Center for the eighth annual 5K and fun run.

Karrenbauer, like many who were close with Meredith Emerson, still comes to tears while speaking about the tragic loss of her friend and former roommate. But she draws comfort from the hundreds of people, and their four-legged friends, who come to honor Emerson’s memory every year.

“This race, this event and this foundation is because of all of you and the support that you’ve shown Meredith and her family and friends, and that we weren’t going to stand for something like this,” Karrenbauer said, “and we are here to remember her, and that’s what this day is all about and to celebrate you and the dogs that (Meredith) would have absolutely loved.”

Emerson went missing while hiking with her rescued dog, Ella, in Blairsville on New Year’s Day in 2008 and was found several days later murdered in the woods.

Ella’s Run is a fundraiser for Right to Hike, a nonprofit founded by Karrenbauer along with

Emerson’s friends and family to raise funds and awareness for causes that were “close to Meredith’s heart.”

The Buford resident loved the outdoors and hiking with Ella, and the two used to hike the Environmental and Heritage Center’s trails.

Over the past eight years, Right to Hike has donated eight emergency solar-powered phones for greenways, parks and trailheads across Gwinnett. Proceeds from the race also support the Meredith Hope Emerson Memorial Award for Study Abroad offered to University of Georgia students, as well as local animal rescues and microchipping.

A crowd of runners and their dogs came out to show their support during Saturday’s event, and for many participants the race has become an annual tradition.

Jen Gregg has run the 5K with her five rescue dogs for the past seven years, and the Dacula resident also organizes a team of colleagues from Turner Broadcasting. Gregg said she’s a longtime animal lover who loves hiking with her dogs, so Ella’s Run hits close to home for her, which is why she makes a point to participate every year.

“And they encourage people to bring their dogs,” Gregg said. “I love that.”

Michelle Gravitt has volunteered with the event’s presenting

sponsor Georgia’s Own Credit Union every year since Ella’s Run was founded. While Gravitt

manned GOCU’s booth, her husband, Brendan, ran the fun run with their rescued lab-mix, Joey Tribbiani. The couple

remembers the tremendous effect Meredith’s death had on the community, and Gravitt said it’s very touching to see

her memory kept alive through Ella’s Run. “This event has a very special feel,” she said.

“There’s lots of love.”

Former Parkview standout and now Norcross running backs coach Jeremy Muyres hopes to make a difference with a new student organization. Below, Muyres gives instruction to players during a practice held on Thursday at Norcross High School. (Photos: Kyle Hess)

Difference-maker

Muyres hopes to bring the spirit of service to Norcross and beyond

By DaviD FrieDlanDer • david.friedlander@gwinnettdailypost.com

NORCROSS — Like a lot of people, Jeremy Muyres looks back to the days when he was still a student and standout athlete in high school and remembers times he wishes he’d done some things differently.

Or maybe that he could have done more.

“I was given a pretty big platform,” recalled the 1999 Parkview graduate, who “I’m in it every day. I see the way the culture is going. We focus on ourselves, worrying about me, being first in line, getting the bigger brownie, all that stuff. It’s not a new idea. It’s been around for a long time, but I just don’t think there’s enough attention brought to it. There’s not enough people talking about it.”

More than 16 years later, Muyres — now the running backs coach on Keith Maloof’s staff at Norcross — wants to do something about it by reaching out to the younger generation.

He has started a student organization at Norcross called I’m A Difference Maker.

It’s designed not to simply

encourage students to take action to help others, though that is a key component to its mission.

went on to become an All-ACC defensive back at Georgia Tech before graduating with a degree in management in 2003. “I was pretty nice to people, but I didn’t really go out of my way to be nice to people. I remember, too, there was a letter I got from a girl, we (wrote) senior letters in high school, and she was thanking me for saying ‘Hi’ to her in the gym.

No, Muyres’ vision for the group is much broader. He wants to try to change the way his students, and other people,

think about and look at the world.

“It basically (serves) two main purposes,” Muyres said.

“One is to bring awareness.

I think if we all admitted it to ourselves, we’re all selfish to a certain extent. Usually what happens is there are so many in need around us and so many ways we can serve other people, but we get so caught up about ourselves and our problems and our issues that we never see them. So the first problem is to bring awareness.

What are ways I can help other people? The more you’re aware of something, the more likely you’re going to see, you’re going to think about it, and the chance goes up that you’re go-

ing to act on it.

“The second main purpose is OK, now that I’m seeing more ways I can help other people, let’s take that next step and go help these other people. Let’s go make a difference.”

So far, Muyres likes the results he’s seen.

There are approximately 270 Difference Makers in the group undertaking a number of various service projects.

Those projects range from simple acts of kindness as a means to simply treat other people better to more concrete actions designed to help people in need.

OAKWOOD — If the 13th Annual Coach Wood Cross Country Invitational serves as any indicator of what to expect later this fall at the Georgia High School Association state championships, then Gwinnett’s prime contenders have some work to do to get into the championship discussion.

In the girls’ all-classification 5K race, Northview was paced by a first-place finish from Lindsay Billings with a time of 17:41.81 and captured the team title with 86 points.

Along with Billings’s top finish, the Titans placed five runners in the top 25 to claim the team championship over runner-up South Forsyth with 95 points and

Marist (147), Milton (151), Etowah (190), Harrison (227), Lovett (240), Brookwood (246) and Dun-

woody (262) rounded out the top 10.

Brookwood’s Lauren Flynt was the top finisher from Gwinnett in fifth overall with a time of 18:33.20.

Hannah Petit of Mill Creek also finished in the individual top 10 in 10th place at 18:51.76.

Camryn Petit in 13th (18:59.78), Alexandra Froh in 33rd (19:55.99), Sara Scales in 34th (20:00.00) and Olivia Fuller in 35th (20:00.19) rounded out the scoring for Mill Creek.

“We knew we could get a top three today, but we still have some work to do,” Mill Creek girls’ head coach Terry Brand said. “Our goal is to win state and we did OK today. We’ve had some girls sick over the past two weeks, but we’re coming around. We’re looking at region, but state is our main goal.”

Along with Flynt, Brookwood was led by Elizabeth

Royals take 2-0 Pressure mounts for contenders lead over Jays NASCAR SPRINT CUP: HOLLYWOOD CASINO 400, TODAY 2:15 P.M. (NBC)

By Jonathan Ingram The Sports Xchange

Except for Joey Logano, who was pumped after winning last week, this year’s Chase for the NASCAR Sprint Cup is pumping up the pressure on drivers and crew chiefs.

In the first race of Round 2 at the Charlotte Motor Speedway, Chase contenders ran into one another, there were crashes on re-starts and crew chiefs made some seriously bad calls.

Matt Kenseth, Dale Earnhardt Jr. and Kyle Busch were all considered among the favorites to make it to the final onerace round at the Homestead-Miami Speedway.

But each was involved in incidents, not necessarily of their own making, which will severely test their ability to advance.

Even those who had a good day still face a lot of pressure unless they advance by winning the race at the Kansas Speedway today. The third race in the Contender round is at the Talladega Superspeedway, where the draft and multicar crashes can ruin a driver’s day in a heartbeat.

Only a victory guarantees a driver will advance to the next round.

“Logano’s the only one is going to sleep for the next two weeks, you know what I mean?” said Martin Truex Jr., who finished third in Charlotte behind runner-up Kevin Harvick.

Is there too much pressure on drivers who earn hefty retainers and purse money in the millions?

While they may not face any more pressure than Major League Baseball players in a Divisional Series, the Sprint Cup drivers do carry far more of a team’s responsibility when it comes to the outcome.

That pressure showed at Charlotte, the home track for the bulk of the Sprint Cup participants.

Charlotte is also a 1.5-

mile track where passing is difficult, which moved the pressure up another notch, especially after the planned Saturday night race was postponed until Sunday afternoon. With cars impounded by NASCAR overnight, teams had to scramble to adapt their chassis to warmer, sunny weather during the afternoon event.

After leading 72 laps, Joe Gibbs Racing driver Kenseth got mired in traffic due to crew chief Jason Ratcliffe’s decision to bring him into the pits while leading for four fresh tires on the day’s third caution while the rest of the leaders stayed out or took just two tires. While struggling to get back to the clean air at the front, Kenseth couldn’t get his car to handle in traffic and eventually tagged the rear of Chase contender Ryan Newman, hit the wall and was forced to retire, finishing 42nd.

If ever there was an inopportune call to take the time to put on four tires by a crew chief, this was it — although it was a move probably designed to stay ahead of changing track conditions. Kenseth will now have to win at Kansas or hope for a miracle at Talladega to make it to Round 3.

Earnhardt Jr. ran afoul of an aggressive passing maneuver in Turn 1 as well — but not his own. Carl

Edwards made a bid to the inside, Earnhardt Jr. turned in and was knocked up the banking.

Despite a miraculous save, a cut tire eventually put him two laps down.

During his comeback, he hit oil near the wall at Turn 1 and he eventually finished 28th.

Replays showed Edwards’ move to be overly aggressive and without much chance of success unless he forced Earnhardt Jr. to change his line, which didn’t happen. Edwards said he had already been blocked once by the Hendrick Motorsports Chevy driver.

“I felt like he blocked me real hard the first time and so the second time I got up there when he came down I just held my ground and we got together,” Edwards said. “He did an amazing job saving it and I have a ton of respect for him so it stinks that it ruined his day. I have to hold my ground when I’ve got my nose in there.”

Earnhardt Jr. said he would wait to view a replay before commenting on Edwards’ move. He remained upbeat about his chances after winning two restrictor plate races this year already at the Daytona International Speedway and Talladega.

“We don’t have to go to Talladega and be nervous like those guys that are go-

ing to have to play it safe,” he said. “We can just go hard. So, we’ve got a great car that can win that race.

We can go to Kansas and run great. I like that track and don’t see why we can’t run great there and maybe win the race there.”

Far less confident was Busch, who finished 20th and sarcastically thanked NASCAR for its clean-up efforts on the oil in Turn 1.

While running third, Busch was hit by Kyle Larson’s late entrance to the pit road. Subsequent repairs to the No. 18 Joe Gibbs Racing Toyota put Busch behind, before he too hit the oil in Turn 1 and got into the wall.

There wasn’t much doubt that Larson caused the accident — although Busch got collected because he faked an entrance to the pit road before trying to return to the track. In this case, there was some confused signal calling by a crew chief. At the last second, Chris Heroy told Larson to pit even through the driver was nearly past the commitment cone.

“They told me to do what everybody around me was doing and the No. 22 (leader Logano) was staying out,” Larson said. “So I was committed to staying out and as soon as I turned right to stay out they said, ‘Pit, pit, pit.’ I hung a left and Kyle was there. I feel really terrible to ruin their day and hopefully it didn’t hurt their chances of transferring through this round.”

For his part, Newman finished 15th. He didn’t lose ground due to his contact with Kenseth in Turn 1. But he also finds himself to be one of the four drivers below the cut line simply by not finishing ahead of eight other contenders.

Having advanced on points last year to runner-up in the championship, on this day Newman lost points primarily because his Richard Childress Racing Chevy just wasn’t quick enough on restarts.

the SportS Xchange KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Alex Gordon hit a go-ahead double in a fiverun seventh as the Kansas City Royals batted around and rallied for a 6-3 victory over the Toronto Blue Jays on Saturday to take a 2-0 lead in the American League Championship Series.

Left-hander David Price totally dominated the Royals for the first six innings, allowing only a leadoff single on his first pitch of the game to shortstop Alcides Escobar.

Price retired the next 18 batters, a Blue Jays’ record for consecutive batters retired in a postseason game, while striking out seven, including the side in the sixth.

In the seventh, Price, who is winless in seven career postseason starts, and the Blue Jays became unraveled.

The inning began with second baseman Ben Zobrist hitting a flare to shallow right that dropped between second baseman Kelvin Pillar and right fielder Jose Bautista for a single.

Lorenzo Cain hit a crisp single to right, extending his postseason hitting streak to 11 games, tying a club record.

First baseman Eric Hosmer singled to center, bringing home Zobrist with the first Kansas City run and advancing Cain to third. Cain scored on designated hitter Kendrys Morales’ ground out.

Third baseman Mike Moustakas snapped an 0-for-13 skid with a RBI-single to tie it and advanced to second on the throw home.

After Price struck

out catcher Salvador Perez, left fielder Gordon worked the count full before doubling to rightcenter to drive in Moustakas and put the Royals in front 4-3.

Gordon turned on Price’s 96 mph fastball, which was his 30th and final pitch of the inning.

He had not thrown more than 14 pitches in any of the first six innings.

Aaron Sanchez replaced Price and promptly gave up a run-producing single to right fielder Alex Rios.

Moustakas’ two-out eighth inning single scored Hosmer with an insurance run.

The Blue Jays scored two runs in the sixth, when designated hitter Edwin Encarnacion’s single scoring third baseman Josh Donaldson with the first run.

Bautista, who had walked, scored on shortstop Troy Tulowitzki’s double.

Royals starter Yordano Ventura failed to survive the inning. Luke Hochevar was summoned with one out and the bases full, and retired Kevin Pillar and Goins on five pitches, keeping the ball in the infield.

Right-hander Wade Davis yielded a single and a walk to begin the ninth, but posted his third postseason save. Left-hander Danny Duffy picked up the victory, pitching a spotless seventh inning.

The Royals’ pitchers streak of 18 scoreless innings ended in the third. Ventura surrendered back-to-back doubles to center fielder Kevin Pillar and Goins, the Blue Jays’ eighth and ninth hitters, to start the frame.

Busch outduels Kenseth for Xfinity win The Sports Xchange

KANSAS CITY, Kan. — Overcoming obstacles in the XFINITY Series is commonplace for Kyle Busch.

In the Kansas Lottery 300 at Kansas Speedway on Saturday, Busch brushed aside a pit road speeding penalty, a hole in the nose of his No. 54 Toyota, a pit stop that dropped him to seventh for the penultimate restart, an unwelcome green-whitecheckered-flag restart and a teammate who had the fastest car for much of the afternoon.

The end result was Busch’s 75th XFINITY Series victory, extending his record. Busch won for the third time at Kansas and for the fifth time in 20 starts this season.

The race also saw Chris Buescher add one point to his series lead over Chase Elliott. Though both drivers had issues — Elliott a wreck during qualifying that sent him to a backup car and the back of the field and Buescher a pit road speeding penalty — Buescher won a drag race to the stripe to come home sixth to Elliott’s seventh.

Buescher leads the standings by 27 points over the defending champion.

But the final 43 laps of the event were vintage Kyle Busch. Restarting seventh on Lap 157 after the seventh caution of the afternoon, Busch surged into second place in a single lap. For the next 28 circuits he harried teammate and eventual runnerup Matt Kenseth before

FRIDAY’S HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL RECAP

Falcons ground Brookwood

rushing for 48 yards and Marcella 98 yards on 17 carries. The brothers each had a pair of touchdowns with Marcko scoring on an 18-yard run and catching an 18-yard TD pass, while Marcella had touchdown runs of 12 and 8 yards.

From StaFF reportS DACULA — There were times when both Dacula and Brookwood did a pretty good job of establishing what they wanted to do during their important Region 8-AAAAAA game.

But the host Falcons’ ground game really made its mark in the second half of Dacula’s 38-21 victory Friday night at Barron Stadium.

Jakob Brashear and Ty Harris combined for 313 of their team’s 336 yards on the ground, including 175 in the final 24 minutes, as the Falcons (5-2, 4-1) pulled away for a key win that puts them back in solid position for one of the region’s state playoff berths.

Brashear finished the night with 170 yards and three touchdowns, including one with 6:12 remaining that blunted a Brookwood (4-4, 4-2) comeback attempt, on 19 carries, while Harris added 143 yards on 21 carries.

Tanner Winskie and Angelo DiSpigna combined to throw for 240 yards, 121 of which went to Matthew Hill for 121 yards.

Jamie Arroyo had two interceptions to lead the Dacula defense, while Cantorion Weems had an interception and a return of a blocked punt for a TD for Brookwood.

•From Page 1B maybe 19 different projects going on right now,” Muyres said. “For example, we have a clothing drive. It’s a two-part (project). One part is trying to identify some of the homeless kids we have here at Norcross. We have about 100 homeless people at Norcross who are living in shelters or extended-stay (hotels), different things like that. We’re going to try to help them out. Then, we’re going to deliver the rest of the clothes to Norcross Co-Op (Ministries).

“So we have different kinds of stuff like that.

We’ll have a toy drive during Christmas for underprivileged kids. The other week, we had kindness week, where every day was something different.

Monday was compliment day. Give as many people a compliment as possible.

Tuesday was a random act of kindness. Do something nice for a stranger. Friday was a cool day. It was called free snack day. We went and gave little stickers that said, ‘Happy Free Snack Day. I hope you enjoy this snack. Go make a difference in somebody else’s life.’ We taped dollar bills to the vending machines. We probably had about 100 dollars we taped to the machines. We had a kid on the foot-

Buford’s offense finished with 428 total yards as 11 running backs combined for 265 yards. Mic Roof finished 10-for-13 for 154 yards and three TDs to pace the Wolves’ passing attack, which finished a combined 11 of 16 for 163 yards and connected with nine different receivers.

Meanwhile, the Buford defense also dominated in the opening two quarters as Monroe Area had 11 rushing attempts resulting in negative yardage and finished with one yard of total offense — thanks to quarterback Chase Bower’s five completions to Alfred King for 39 yards.

Lanier 42, Heritage 0 SUGAR HILL — After thwarting an early scoring chance from Heritage, Lanier’s defense clamped down as the fifth-ranked Longhorns posted a 42-0 shutout in Region 8-AAAAA action Friday at Lanier Community Stadium.

Lanier’s defense recorded its third shutout of the season and is allowing 5.85 points a game.

Heritage (0-7), coached by former Berkmar head coach Wendell Early, managed just four first downs and 90 yards of total offense against Lanier’s stingy defense. Aaron Vaz sealed the stellar defensive performance with an interception to end the game.

Lanier (7-0, 6-0) quarterback Tahj Tolbert was 11 of 19 for 99 yards, including a pair of touchdown passes. Marcko and Marcella Baity guided the running game with Marcko

Parkview 42, South Gwinnett 28 SNELLVILLE — When Parkview and South Gwinnett get together on the gridiron, the game is guaranteed to be close.

Friday was no different as the Panthers had to hang on to win 42-28, snapping a three-game losing streak to the Comets.

Jack Chambers’ 35-yard TD pass to Tyler Fleetwood with 3:01 left foiled South’s (1-7 overall, 0-6 in Region 8-AAAAAA) fourth-quarter comeback from a 20-point deficit and sealed the win for Parkview (5-2, 3-2).

Chambers finished the game with 131 yards rushing, while also completing 16 of 26 passes for 182 yards. Deion Slade finished with 65 yards on the ground, while Johnathan Boyd had eight catches for 78 yards.

South was led by Josh Shim, who went 14 of 28 for 246 yards, while also rushing for 55 yards. Terrell Smith finished with three catches for 83 yards.

Commerce 45, Providence Christian 0 COMMERCE — Commerce’s four-headed rushing attack was too much for Providence Christian to handle in a 45-0 win for the host Tigers on Friday.

Commerce (4-3, 3-2 Region 8-A) quarterback Caleb Brooks and running backs Will Thomas, J’Varius Wood and Cole Chancey needed just 18 first-half offensive plays to put up 295 rushing yards 42 points. Brooks led the pack with 134 yards on seven carries before being taken out at halftime.

Thomas also impressed, putting up 119 yards on just three carries.

The Storm (0-7, 0-5) did better in the second half, holding Commerce to just three points and 63 yards, but that was without any of the four feature ball carriers stepping on the field.

Muyres ball team who went out the night before and got groceries. We probably passed out about 1,000 free snacks that day. We have a week called Project Positivity, where your goal is that nothing negative comes out of your mouth.

So we have all these different projects.”

While the roots of the I’m A Difference Maker program and its service projects date back to Muyres’ high school days, the catalyst to put it into action hit him about a year ago.

And that inspiration came from what seems like an unusual source — his car radio.

“I was coming to work one day last October and a group called Needtobreathe — they have a song called ‘Difference Maker,’” Muyres recalled.

“So I was listening to that song on the way to work, and I thought, ‘We need to start something up.’

We have a bunch of great kids here at Norcross. And really, since I’ve launched this program, these kids are running with it. They’re kind of running the program.”

But while the whole idea is for the student Difference Makers to learn to think about giving of themselves, it doesn’t mean they don’t gain something from it for themselves.

Malik McClain, a Norcross senior and linebacker for the Blue Devils football team, said he has learned a lot from the projects he’s participated in.

“I just feel excited about doing things in the program and helping Coach Muyres get (it) to where he wants (it) to go,” McClain said. “The other night, I couldn’t sleep because I was so excited about paying for someone’s meal and helping them out.”

The good feelings provided to people like McClain and those helped by them are what Muyres hopes to duplicate beyond Norcross.

Through his friend and fellow coach Josh Bennett, a chapter of the I’m A Difference Maker organization has started at Pinckneyville Middle School, one of Norcross’ feeder schools.

Muyres has even bigger plans for the concept, one he hopes to spread with the help from another old Norcross friend.

“I know at Lanier High School, talking to (current Longhorn and former Norcross baseball coach Jonathan) Wyman, (Lanier football coach Kory) Mobbs and (defensive backs coach) Jay Warren,” Muyres said. “I’m meeting with them soon to kind of get with them and get it started over at Lainer.

Eventually, my goal is

to get it in all Gwinnett County schools. I’m looking for … that person that will look over it (at each school) and run with it. It’s not very hard, and it will be student led, but I need that teacher (or) coach who’s well liked and well connected in the school that can get it started.”

In the meantime, Muyres sits back and marvels at the difference it’s already made at Norcross. “(The kids) have loved it,” Muyres said. “Some of the feedback I’m getting from the kids, and the stories (are great). I hear a different story every day.

Whether it’s ‘(I met) a homeless family or a family that didn’t have much money, and I paid for their Subway (meal),’ or ‘I was on an airplane and a family is (couldn’t) sit together and I had the (aisle) seat, and I took the middle seat so they could sit together.’

“You just hear all these (stories) and you can tell the culture is changing.

The way these kids are thinking is changing. …

And it’s only going to get bigger. This is just the start of it. We have a vision of it, that it’s not just going to be a Norcross thing.

We have (Bennett) that’s starting it up over at Pinckneyville Middle School.

I really, truly believe it’s going to be all over (Gwinnett County) eventually.”

Thomas, Yellow Jackets back to making big plays

By Stan awtrey Staff Correspondent

ATLANTA — Georgia Tech re-discovered the big play on Saturday.

Over the previous four games, the Yellow Jackets had only seven runs or passes of 25 yards or longer. They had six of them against Pitt, two on rushes by Marcus Marshall, two on rushes by Justin Thomas and two on passes from Thomas, one to Michael Summers and one to Ricky Jeune.

“I think everybody was doing their assignments and doing them well,” Marshall said.

Marshall had a pair of 58-yard runs, one of them for a touchdown. He had three big plays in the season opener.

Thomas had runs of 51 and 45 yards, his first big plays since the Tulane game. He had a 34-yard pass to Micheal Summers

for 58 yards for a touchdown the first time he touched the ball. He had another 58-yard run at the end of the third period to set up a touchdown.

“I was excited,” Marshall said. “It wasn’t something we’d talked about all week.”

Marshall finished with 10 carries for 159 yards and two touchdowns.

Injury update Georgia Tech didn’t lose anyone with a long-term injury on Saturday, although a number of players were shaken up and taken to the trainer’s table.

Linebacker P.J. Davis injured his right ankle on Pitts’ opening drive and had to be helped off the field.

After having the ankle examine and re-taped, he was able to go back in the game on the next possession. David wound up leading the team with nine tackles.

Wide receiver Brad Stew-

art limped off the field with an injured left ankle. He had ice on the leg and did not return. Of all the players who were injured, Stewart’s was the most substantial.

Defensive end KeShun Freeman left the field for a possession but returned the next. He had his left knee iced after the game. Freeman had four tackles.

A-back Broderick Snoddy, offensive lineman Errin Joe and defensive back Demond Smith were unable to play.

Pitt started its winning drive at its own 31 with 8:13 remaining. The Panthers converted a pair of fourth-and-shorts to keep the drive alive, but stalled after reaching the Georgia Tech 34.

On fourth-and-14, Narduzzi opted to try the field goal and Chris Blewitt, whose previous long kick was 48 yards, drove it through the uprights for a 56-yarder.

“The thing I can say about our kids is they’ve got faith,” Narduzzi said.

“They’ve got faith in what we were talking about, preaching and coaching, and our players made the plays today they needed to.

Blewitt’s field goal to win it, that’s what you play in these big games for.”

Georgia Tech had one last chance with 1:04 left and got as far as its own 47. But the Yellow Jackets, who had used all their timeouts, could not get close enough to give kicker Harrison Butker a chance to tie the game. The game ended when Justin Thomas threw a desperation pass that was intercepted.

Peterman completed 14 of 21 passes for 162 yards and three touchdowns.

Qadree Ollison rushed 22 times for 83 yards and a 1-yard touchdown. Wide receiver Tyler Boyd caught eight passes for 68 yards and two touchdowns, rushed five times for 26 yards and threw a pass for 29 yards. Boyd broke the school’s career reception record. He has 204 catches,

surpassing Devin Street’s 202 total from 2010-13.

“Right now we are not very good on defense,” Johnson said. “We’ve got to find a way to get better.

And, having said that, we had our chances.”

The defense allowed 391 yards to Pitt, but did not have a sack or even a tackle behind the line. It got very little pressure on Peterman.

“Things happen sometimes and sometimes it doesn’t go your way,” defensive end KeShun Freeman said. “We have to keep fighting and keep getting better. Adversity is going to come and we just have to stand in the face of it and do well with it.”

Georgia Tech B-back Marcus Marshall rushed

10 times for 159 yards and two touchdowns in his first start. Quarterback Justin Thomas carried 14 times for 95 yards and completed 6 of 16 passes with one interception for 106 yards.

Things don’t get any easier next year for the Yellow Jackets, as Florida State comes to Bobby Dodd for the first time since 2008. With only five games left, Georgia Tech must win at least four to extend its streak of bowl appearances to 19 straight.

“We’ve just got to play a complete game,” linebacker Tyler Marcordes said. “We had some good plays here and there and let some plays go. We can’t do that. We have to play a complete game if we want to win.”

TOP 25 ROUNDUP

Michigan State wins on botched punt and let leads slip away.

Oklahoma needed only five plays and 1:04 to find the end zone, as Mayfield hit three passes of 20 or more yards on the game’s opening drive.

Two of those long passes went to wide receiver Sterling Shepard, who finished it off with a 22-yard catch.

Shepard finished with four catches for 83 yards and two touchdowns.

By halftime, many of the sellout crowd of 52,867 had streamed toward the exits, as Oklahoma built a 35-0 lead behind Mayfield’s five touchdown passes.

Mayfield finished 20of-27 before giving way to Trevor Knight at quarterback after three quarters.

The Sooners finished with 568 yards of total offense while Kansas State didn’t top 100 yards until the game’s final minute.

The SporTS Xchange ANN ARBOR, Michigan — There was all sorts of hype leading up to No. 7 Michigan State’s battle with No. 12 Michigan State, but the ending wasn’t something anyone could have predicted.

With Michigan setting up to punt with nine seconds to play, punter Blake O’Neill dropped the snap and the ball was batted into the hands of Michigan State’s Jalen WattsJackson, who returned it 38 yards for the touchdown with no time on the clock to give the Spartans a 2723 victory on Saturday in Michigan Stadium.

It was Michigan State’s seventh win in the last eight meetings with its rival.

The game had plenty of drama to that point as Michigan appeared to come up with the final stop it needed before the misplayed punt.

Before the last-play drama, Jabrill Peppers had 157 total yards for the Wolverines (5-1, 2-1 Big Ten) and fullback Sione Houma scored two touchdowns. Kicker Kenny Allen added three field goals, with his 38-yarder in the fourth quarter the difference before the final play.

Michigan State (7-0, 3-0) extended its winning streak to 11 games and won on the road in the Big Ten for the 12th straight time.

COLLEGE STATION, Texas — Running back Derrick Henry rushed for a career-high 236 yards and two touchdowns while freshman defensive back Minkah Fitzpatrick returned a pair of interceptions for touchdowns as No. 10 Alabama trounced No. 9 Texas A&M 41-23 before 105,733 fans at Kyle Field.

Defensive back Eddie Jackson also returned an interception for a touchdown as the Crimson Tide (6-1, 3-1 SEC) recorded the second game with multiple touchdowns on interceptions in school history.

Quarterback Kyle Allen was 20 of 40 for 263 yards with three interceptions and one touchdown for the Aggies (5-1, 2-1).

The Aggies’ special teams blocked a punt in the third, but the offense stalled despite the great field position. Texas A&M ultimately missed a 52yard field goal attempt.

On the ensuing drive, the Crimson Tide sustained a six-minute possession, but could only come away with three points as kicker Adam Griffith made a 32-yard attempt to make it 31-20.

Griffith was good on a 20-yard attempt early in the fourth quarter which pushed the score to 34-20.

The Aggies added a field goal to make it 34-23 before Fitzpatrick’s second touchdown sealed it.

With the offense stalling on its first drive, Alabama’s defense struck first as Fitzpatrick intercepted an overthrown pass from Allen and returned it 33 yards for a touchdown to make it 7-0.

Two drives later, Henry found the end zone on a 59-yard burst up the middle for a 14-0 lead.

Steele clings to Frys lead for third day The SporTS Xchange Brendan Steele will have to go wire to wire to earn his second PGA Tour victory.

Steele, who has led since opening with a 9-under-par 63 in the first event of the 2015-16 season, carded a 3-under-par 69 on Saturday to take a one-stroke lead over Andrew Loupe and Kevin Na to the final round of the Frys.com Open at Silverado Country Club in Napa, Calif.

Steele, who won the 2011 Valero Texas Open on the PGA Tour and what

is now the Web.com Tour Championship in 2010, has a 36-hole total of 14-under 202.

Loupe, who earned his PGA Tour card earlier this month by finishing in the top 25 in the Web.com Tour Finals, opened the third round with five straight birdies and had four more in a row through No. 17 en route to his own 63.

“I was swinging pretty free out here today,” said Loupe, who earned his spot on the big tour thanks to his victory in the Nationwide Children’s Hospital Championship, the penulti-

mate event in the Web.com Tour Finals in late September on the Scarlet Course at Ohio State in Columbus, Ohio. “I just want to keep that positive mojo going. ”I was fortunate to pull out that win in Ohio. (Otherwise) I’d be waiting for the Web.com Tour season to start again in South America (in January).”

Na, whose only PGA Tour victory came in the 2011 Justin Timberlake Shriners Hospitals for Children Open, posted a bogey-free 64 that included a 7-foot eagle putt at No. 16 and birdies on the 15th

and 18th holes.

Justin Rose of England, No. 7 in the World Golf Rankings, shot 68 and was two strokes back in a tie for fourth with rookie Emiliano Grillo (65) of Argentina, Jason Bohn (64), Kyle Reifers (65), Graham DeLaet (69) of Canada, rookie Harold Varner III (69), Jhonattan Vegas (69) of Venezuela and Will Wilcox (69).

Matty Ice must take better care of ball for Falcons The SporTS Xchange FLOWERY BRANCH — Atlanta Falcons quarterback Matt Ryan had a decent day statistically, but a few blunders helped sidetrack the team against the New Orleans Saints in Thursday night’s 31-21 loss.

After two sub-standard games for the two-time Pro Bowler, the team’s franchise quarterback can take a mini-break before the return to action against the Tennessee Titans on Sunday, Oct. 25.

After having three turnovers in an overtime victory over Washington, Ryan had three fumbles against the Saints. Two of them came in key situations and the other late in the game when things were decided.

Falcons head coach Dan Quinn preaches about the important of ball security.

ball rules is to secure the football and take it away from the opposition. The Falcons whiffed on both fronts against the Saints with a national television audience watching.

“I would argue that every meeting that I’ve been in that Dan has been there that there have been

references to ball security and taking the ball away on defense,” Ryan said.

“That’s who we have been the last couple of weeks early in the season.”

The bright sport for the Falcons was the continued emergence of running back Devonta Freeman.

He extended his streak

of scoring at least one rushing touchdown in a game to five. His 25-yard run was his ninth rushing touchdown of the season, and his longest touchdown run of the season. Freeman finished the game with 13 carries for 100 yards, which was his second straight game with at least 100 yards rushing.

He has more touchdowns through the first six games than any Falcons player had all last season.

Freeman is also a threat out of the backfield. He added eight catches for 56 yards and finished the game with 156 total yards from scrimmage.

He has five straight games of recording 100 total yards. He also caught his first touchdown pass of the season on a 13-yard catch and run in the fourth quarter.

Overall, Freeman’s 10 total touchdowns lead the NFL. Dating back to

1991, Freeman is the ninth Falcon to score 10 total touchdowns in a single season and the first since Julio Jones in 2012.

Ryan believes the Falcons will regroup.

“It was a tough night,” Ryan said. “I don’t think there’s a loss of identity or anything like that. We just didn’t play as well as we are capable of.”

The Falcons were downright awful. They had untimely fumbles, a blocked punt and a host of penalties.

Ryan was 30 of 44 for 295 yards and two touchdowns. The Falcons had five fumbles and they recovered two of them.

There was a botched snap and Ryan bumped into fullback Pat DiMarco to force another fumble that was a drive-killer.

There was no precision to the offense against the Saints.

Despite all of the mis-

takes, the Falcons trailed 14-7 at halftime and had the ball to start the third quarter.

But the drive stalled after right guard Chris Chester was called for a holding penalty.

“We had an opportunity to convert on a pretty good third-down situation when a ball got tipped down,” Ryan said. “It’s one of those things in order to kind of get the momentum, you have to be good on third down. Turnovers and third downs, we were not very good on that tonight.

That’s an area where we need to be better.”

Running back Tevin Coleman had a fumble in the red zone.

“We just didn’t play the way that we are capable of in terms of ball security,” Ryan said. “When you don’t protect the football and you have a number of turnovers, it’s difficult to win.”

Newton, Panthers take on floundering Seahawks The SporTS Xchange Carolina quarterback Cam Newton has been doing an excellent job working with the personnel he has.

The passing game ranks 29th in the NFL minus a standout playmaker, but Newton has thrown only two interceptions. The ground game is ranked fourth in the league, but that’s in large part due to Newton averaging nearly 11 carries per game.

That is not a recipe for success in Seattle, where the Seahawks (2-3) sport the league’s No. 7 run defense and Carolina must play today (4 p.m., Fox).

Seattle’s strong safety Kam Chancellor will live in the box as an eighth run defender and dare Newton to challenge the corners in man coverage. Greg Olson leads the Panthers (4-0) with 17 catches for 243 yards, and tight ends continue to have success exploiting the seam against Seattle. That trend could continue if linebacker Bobby Wagner is sidelined by a pectoral injury.

Seattle’s offensive line remains a massive area of concern after coordinator Darrell Bevell played it close to the vest and watched a 17-point fourth quarter lead evaporate in Cincinnati while the offense failed to move the ball. QB Russell Wilson has been sacked 22 times and escaped countless more. His ability to extend plays with his feet is the main concern, and the Seahawks are planning on running back Marshawn Lynch (hamstring) returning after a two-game absence. Seattle’s offensive line improved in its combo blocking in the ground game last week, but the pass protection remains dreadful.

Kansas City Chiefs (1-4) at Minnesota Vikings (2-2) Today, 1 p.m.

The Chiefs label their running game a committee approach with Charcandrick West and Knile Davis stepping in with Jamaal Charles (ACL) out for the season. Kansas City’s conservative offense has moved only in fits and starts and the Vikings

are sure to compound those problems unless QB Alex Smith can find a groove early. The Vikings don’t let receivers off the line easily and Smith’s timing can be rattled.

The Vikings come off the bye week with fresh legs and RB Adrian Peterson remains the central focus with an average of 113.7 rushing yards in the three games since Minnesota’s debacle in the opener. QB Teddy Bridgewater has learned to slide and move up in the pocket when his edge blockers don’t hold.

The Chiefs are struggling in sub-packages, and the Vikings can exploit the lack of depth in the secondary by working out of three-wide sets.

Washington Redskins (2-3) at New York Jets (3-1) Today, 1 p.m.

Poised is the word Jets coach Todd Bowles used to describe Redskins QB Kirk Cousins. He could get No. 1 receiver DeSean Jackson (hamstring) on the field for the first time since Week 1.

Jackson was listed as questionable on Friday’s injury report.

Cousins’ physical wellbeing depends on RBs Alfred Morris and Matt Jones, who have averaged 2.75 yards per carry over the past three games.

The Jets thrive when they run the ball and the Redskins were gashed for 176 yards on the ground by the Falcons last week.

Expect a fresh RB Chris Ivory to get at least 20 carries as offensive coordinator Chan Gailey looks to batter the Redskins in order to open up opportunities for QB Ryan Fitzpatrick and WR Brandon Marshall with Washington’s top two corners out of the lineup.

Houston Texans (1-4) at Jacksonville Jaguars (1-4) Today, 1 p.m. (CBS) Coach Gus Bradley came to Jacksonville with a reputation as a great defensive mind, which makes the Jaguars’ struggles on that side of the ball all the more frustrating. Bradley is unwavering in his belief the talent is there and that it’s more a matter of players fixing the problems worked on in practice and not making new ones in games.

Whatever the case may be, the Texans have to see an opportunity to get their inconsistent offense untracked against a team allowing 29.0 points per game.

QB Brian Hoyer, who started the season-opener and relieved the past two games, get the call this week for coach Bill O’Brien, who hardly provided a strong vote of confidence when deeming it “11 one-game seasons.” RB Arian Foster has averaged a meager 1.9 yards on his first 27 carries and had a big deflection that led to an interception last week.

Houston desperately needs its veteran leader to produce to avoid another early hole to dig out of.

Arizona Cardinals (4-1) at Pittsburgh Steelers (3-2) Today, 1 p.m.

Rather than head back to Phoenix following last week’s

victory in Detroit, the Cardinals traveled to West Virginia to practice at The Greenbrier resort in West Virginia. They have been on the road for two weeks, but coach Bruce Arians is confident his team will be rested and focused.

On the field, the Cardinals will pound early with RBs Andre Ellington, Chris Johnson and David Johnson in an effort to wear down a young Steelers defense that has already chalked up 16 sacks. Pittsburgh is ranked 15th in total defense, with DLs Cameron Heyward and Stephon Tuitt rarely coming off the field.

Arizona wants to wear down that pair and set up QB Carson Palmer to comfortably step into his throws while dissecting a vulnerable secondary.

QB Ben Roethlisberger (shoulder) was listed as out Friday, so Mike Vick will get the call for the third consecutive game for Pittsburgh. Vick really only moved the ball effectively on two drives at San Diego last week. But it was enough, as he did a good job of protecting the ball and letting RB Le’Veon Bell take on the brunt of the workload. The Cardinals’ 11th-ranked run defense will attempt to flip the script and put the game on Vick’s arm, and it’s critical for Pittsburgh not to fall in a deep early hole.

Cincinnati Bengals (5-0) at Buffalo Bills (3-2) Today, 1 p.m.

The Bills expect to get WR Sammy Watkins back in the lineup, but who will be trying to get the ball to him remains uncertain, as does who that quarterback will be handing off to. QB Tyrod Taylor (knee) remains a longshot to play, with EJ Manuel likely to get his first start since Week 4 of last season. At running back, LeSean McCoy (hamstring) was listed as probable Friday but Karlos Williams (concussion) was declared out.

So tthe Bills would be severely depleted if Boobie Dixon and Boom Herron are asked to share the load again. Watkins’ return should help open more room for WRs Percy Harvin and Robert Woods, who have been largely unproductive in his absence.

Cincinnati’s ground game has been inconsistent of late and Buffalo’s third-ranked defense must keep it that way because QB Andy Dalton has far too many weapons downfield and the Bills’ pass rush has produced just nine sacks.

Dalton has just two interceptions against 11 touchdowns and could pick apart Buffalo’s secondary with or without the help of play-action. The Bills have to find a way to contain TE Tyler Eifert (two TDs last week, five on the season) inside the red zone.

Chicago Bears (2-3) at Detroit Lions (0-5) Today, 1 p.m. (Fox) The Bears are pleased with the play of QB Jay Cutler. In 88 pass attempts the past two games, he had one interception, and the offense is clicking even without top receiver Alshon Jef-

fery (hamstring). RB Matt Forte isn’t seeing wide running lanes since the offensive line was juggled yet again — his longest carry the past three games went 12 yards — but the Lions are 27th in the NFL against the run at 126.6 yards allowed per game.

The inability to run the ball, not Matthew Stafford’s control, has sapped the Lions of potency. At 48.8 rushing yards per game and 2.8 yards per carry, balance isn’t a conceivable thought and Stafford is being harassed on virtually every drop back. The Bears have allowed 11 touchdown passes and are struggling to get off the field on third down (43.5 percent). If Detroit can dodge third-and-long, this could be the week the Lions awaken from a season-long slumber.

Denver Broncos (5-0) at Cleveland Browns (2-3) Today, 1 p.m.

Fan calls for the Broncos to bench 18th-year veteran QB Peyton Manning aren’t going to produce a change under center any time soon, but Denver’s offensive struggles are legitimate.

They begin up front with an offensive line incapable of establishing the strong running game coach Gary Kubiak envisioned entering the season. Defenses unafraid to challenge Manning to beat them deep or to the outside are stacking the box and limiting RBs C.J. Anderson and Ronnie Hillman to a combined 3.51 yards per carry — and that includes a 72-yard scamper

by Hillman. The Browns own the league’s 31st-ranked run defense, struggle to generate much of a pass rush, have zero interceptions and could be without CB Joe Haden, so this could be the game Manning regains some old form.

The Browns are trying to use last week’s comeback over the Ravens as a stepping stone for more sustained success, but it won’t be easy against the league’s second-ranked defense. QB Josh McCown is quietly playing very well, completing 67.8 percent of his passes with six touchdowns vs. a lone interception. But he needs more than 3.5 yards per carry from RBs Isaiah Crowell and Duke Johnson to have success against a Broncos defense that will crash the edges on long passing downs and have far superior cover talent than the Baltimore secondary McCoy tore apart.

Miami Dolphins (2-3) at Tennessee Titans (1-3) Today, 1 p.m.

Interim Dolphins coach Dan Campbell hasn’t committed to any personnel changes on his struggling offensive line, but has indicated the team will provide more help to the front five and stay better committed to the run.

Campbell seeks better offensive balance to support inconsistent QB Ryan Tannehill, who has been sacked 10 times through four games and has struggled with accuracy and recognizing blitzes. Expect more opportuni-

ties for RB Lamar Miller, as long as he responds to Campbell’s call for the running backs to finish their runs stronger and fight for every yard.

Titans rookie QB Marcus Mariota has similarly been hampered by a fledgling ground game, but he has done a good job protecting the ball with eight touchdowns against three interceptions and a very solid 99.7 passer rating. While the Titans rank 14th in the league in rushing, the committee approach has been far from consistent, with Bishop Sankey averaging 4.1 yards per carry but averaging only nine per game. Miami enters with the league’s worst run defense allowing 160.5 yards per game and has multiple starters questionable due to injury.

Campbell and new defensive coordinator Lou Anarumo spent the bye week looking at technique and coverage “tweaks.”

San Diego Chargers (2-3) at Green Bay Packers (5-0) Today, 4:25 p.m. (CBS) The Chargers are desperate for a breakout game from rookie RB Melvin Gordon, who has flashed at times but has yet to score. San Diego’s beat-up offensive line was put on skates

by Pittsburgh on Monday night and won’t enter this game in much better shape. San Diego needs to move the ball against the 28th-ranked run defense to keep QB Philip Rivers out of the long passing situations that are nearly impossible to convert with such little protection.

Green Bay is known for its offensive fireworks at home, but look for the Packers to attack a run defense allowing 132.4 yards per game and try to steadily wear San Diego’s defense down. The Chargers don’t generate consistent pressure, so QB Aaron Rodgers should be able to slide around the pocket buying time for receivers to come open. In what feels like a plug-and-play receiving corps, rookie Ty Montgomery has made an impact at Jordy Nelson’s position and could be a matchup issue for the Chargers.

Baltimore Ravens (1-4) at San Francisco 49ers (1-4) Today, 4:25 p.m.

No moral victories were earned in a close loss to the Giants according to Jim Tomsula, but the 49ers’ coach gets two key players back this week in LB Ahmad Brooks and TE Vernon Davis. The 49ers allowed only 20 combined points in their two home games and the Ravens’ inability to stop the run has a lot to do with their 1-4 record.

The 49ers are conservative to extremes, but QB Colin Kaepernick might carry over some confidence from his best individual showing of the season

last week. The Ravens’ secondary is a rolling wheel of injuries, and Kaepernick’s top two targets are Baltimore castoffs.

Ravens QB Joe Flacco has to protect the NFL’s 25th-ranked defense all while getting to know a band of receivers few envisioned playing a key role this season. San Francisco is allowing 299 passing yards per game, but Baltimore will try to rely on its running attack to control the tempo and keep its banged-up defense fresh. That approach could be tossed should RB Justin Forsett (ankle) be limited or ineffective.

New England Patriots (4-0) at Indianapolis Colts (3-2) Today, 8:30 p.m. (NBC) Quicker throws and shorter drops kicked the Colts’ offense into gear while Andrew Luck (shoulder) was on the sideline for two games. The approach won’t get tossed as Luck returns, with ball control on the mind to keep Tom Brady’s offense off the field. Luck is 0-4 with 10 interceptions against the Patriots in the regular season.

New England introduces another new running back to this rivalry with Dion Lewis catching on as a key cog offensively. The Colts lead the NFL in tackles for loss in the running game, but their history against the Patriots isn’t sparkling. LeGarrette Blount has more than 300 yards rushing and seven touchdowns in his last two games against Indy. But with Brady slinging it, the Colts can’t build a plan around stopping the run.

New York Giants (3-2) at Philadelphia Eagles (2-3) Monday, 8:30 p.m. (ESPN) The New York Giants saw their season take a nosedive with a crushing Week 6 loss at NFC East rival Philadelphia a year ago and will try to avoid a similar fate when they visit the Eagles on Monday night. The Giants posted their third consecutive victory with a last-minute win over San Francisco last week to take a one-game lead atop the division.

“It ranks up there as far as comebacks,” New York coach Tom Coughlin said after Eli Manning engineered a late touchdown drive despite both his wide receivers dealing with hamstring injuries. The Giants were also riding a three-game winning streak last season and were promptly shellacked by the Eagles 27-0, setting off a sevengame skid. Philadelphia is coming off its best performance with a 39-17 romp over New Orleans.

“After what we were able to do in the preseason, everybody has been waiting for this,” Eagles quarterback Sam Bradford said.

“It’s a great feeling. Now, we have to build off it.”

Georgia Farm Bureau offering $65K in scholarships

By Zach Miles Staff Intern

The Georgia Farm Bureau is awarding up to $65,000 in scholarships to Georgia students seeking a degree in veterinary medicine, agriculture, family and consumer sciences or a related field.

The GFB is the state’s largest general farm

organization and is made up of volunteer members who are actively a part of local, district and state GFB activities. The GFB has been offering scholarships to high school seniors for over 40 years — John Archer, Gwinnett County Farm Bureau President, recently announced that the organization is expanding its scholarship program

after establishing the GFB Foundation for Agriculture, a nonprofit corporation.

This year GFB will award scholarships in four categories: Scholarship for Agriculture, Technical College Scholarship for Agriculture, Rising College Junior/Senior Scholarship for Agriculture and the UGA College of Veterinary Medicine Scholarship.

The Scholarship for Agriculture is awarded to high school seniors who are planning to attend Berry College or the University System of Georgia throughout the 2016-17 school year. These students must also be pursuing a degree in agricultural and cultural sciences, family and consumer sciences or a related agricultural field.

The GFB Foundation will give out seven scholarships of $1,500 and five scholarships of $3,000.

The Technical College Scholarship for Agriculture is available for high school students who intend to enroll at a Georgia accredited

technical college and will be majoring in agriculture or a related field of study that is. The GFB will award ten scholarships of $1,000 to these students.

The Rising College Junior/Senior Scholarship for Agriculture is for college students who only have two semesters remaining in their degree of either agriculture and environmental sciences, family and consumer sciences or a related agricultural field. These students must also be working toward their degrees at either The University System of Georgia or Berry College, and the GFB Foundation will grant ten scholarships

of $2,000 each.

The UGA College of Veterinary Medicine Scholarship is for current UGA Veterinary Medicine students specializing in large animal/food animal practice. The GFB will award two scholarships of $2,500 each.

The deadline to apply for all of the scholarships is Feb. 5; applications and scholarship eligibility requirements can be obtained from the Gwinnett County Farm Bureau office located at or online at gfbfoundation.org. The scholarship recipients will be announced in the spring and distributed during the summer.

Everything is not under control and that’s good Do you ever find yourself looking forward to that mythical time when your life is finally under control?

Be careful what you wish for.

Famed racecar driver Mario Andretti once said, “If everything seems under control, you’re not going fast enough.”

It’s tempting to want life to be more predictable, but keeping things under control rarely creates greatness.

I’ve always been someone who wants to push things through quickly, often to the chagrin of my more methodical colleagues. For years, I thought this was a personal failing on my part. But Andretti’s quote has now freed me

to kill you.

It’s true that some things are good when you slow them down. Slow food, slow dancing and slow conversations with your kids are all more satisfying than rushing. But if you want to succeed in a fast-paced world, you need to be able to move quickly. Here are Lisa McLeod three tips to help you get comfortable with less than of the need to try to keep full control. everything under control.

1. Operate on incomAs Andretti alludes to, the plete information winners are the people who My father once said to push the envelope. me, leadership is about The beauty of being in making decisions with business is that you don’t incomplete information. If have to risk your life to go you’re doing brain surgery, fast. A racecar driver might read the X-rays thoroughly. slam into the wall, but a But when you’re making business failure is not going a business decision, if you

have 80 percent of the information, you probably have enough to go.

2. Expect a 20 percent failure rate You’re going to make bad decisions. Get over it.

You’re going to choose poor suppliers, you’re going to go into bad markets, and you’re going to have product flops.

None of these are fatal.

Shake it off and get yourself ready for the next lap.

3. Ignore sunk costs When you make a bad decision, don’t hold onto to it for too long. People are afraid to let go of something where they’ve invested time and money. The faster you admit failure, and write off your investment, the faster you’ll be able to do some-

thing better. Don’t throw good money after bad just because you can’t bear to lose your investment.

4. Embrace uncertainty Successful ventures always have some level of chaos. If you don’t have a certain degree of uncertainty it means you’re stagnant.

This is hard for people to accept. But as someone who has worked with many wildly successful organizations (Google, Microsoft, Hootsuite), I observe time and again that top teams are comfortable with uncertainty. They don’t just wing it, but they know things change fast, and you have to be able to respond live time. That means it’s always going to feel a little bit crazy.

My grandmother used to run the nursing team at a large hospital. When she was very elderly, she went into a nursing home. She said, “The people here are nice, but it’s the same thing every day.”

If you want predictability, become a monk. If you want everything to be “under control,” you can resign yourself to mediocrity.

But if you want to do big, cool stuff, embrace the idea that you are always going to feel a little bit out of control.

Boy in the overalls The other day I had something on my mind, a situation we had just encountered with someone we had sought to help.

When those things come to mind, I ponder. I turn them over and over thinking on human behavior and the stark facts of life.

Downhearted, I sank down on a step of the stairs in the foyer as I studied on the situation. My eye fell on a framed photo of a boy about 12 who is clothed in worn overalls and a raggedy dark blue shirt. He is sitting in a straight-backed wooden chair which is leaned slightly against the aging walls of a mountain shack.

And beside that boy is a large yard dog of black and white. There is nothing pretty about the dog except for the sweet light in its eyes, a similar light that shines in the boy’s green eyes. The boy loved that dog mightily for it was all he really had to love. What happened to the dog is such a horrific thing that I cannot write it for I cannot bear to see the words in black and white. Even now, my eyes fill with tears for both the dog and the boy who had only him to love.

That gets away from this story, though. We had just faced a cold reality of life and those people who want to be helped as opposed to those who take the help, learn nothing from it, appreciate nothing about it, then keep moving on looking for another handout from some other well-meaning souls.

I’ve always believed that it doesn’t matter if we are used by these kinds of people, what matters is that we continue to help whenever we see a need and not become jaded or distrustful. Those who help will be blessed for their goodwill and those who abuse the good-heartedness will answer.

Sometimes, though, you don’t see it coming.

To Tink I had said, “It just goes to show that some people can’t be helped.”

That much is as true as the first chapter of Genesis.

Many people who have reached a certain age and yet continue to make the same mistakes with money or get-

Ronda Rich ting ahead are pretty much headed toward being behind when death calls. Sometimes, they are raised up in that kind of nothingness and can’t find a way to escape it while, other times, they are raised better but choose it.

That latter is a greater sin to my way of thinking.

Anyway, as I pondered what had recently happened, my eyes rested on that photo of the boy who was raised in despair and poverty. There were winters without heat or food and nary a summer with a pair of shoes. It was as much of a nothing beginning as anything you’ll ever find. Education and church were equally avoided but that boy was taught to work hard and to look to no man for charity. Right or wrong, good or bad, it is the stoic way of those mountain folks.

I thought of the good and decent life that boy made for himself. He flew with the speed of a mighty eagle from that nest of desperation. He worked hard. He found the Lord or maybe it was the Lord who found him. At any rate, the boy set himself firmly on an unchartered path and discovered that by the grace of God and the workings of his own hands, he could turn nothing into something solid and admirable.

That boy was my daddy and as I looked at that photo taken during what he would always grimly recall as “Hoover days” but known to history as the Great Depression, I was reminded of what I have always known: Some people are capable of springboarding from a bad place into a good one.

Let us not forget that.

By Polly ouellette Staff Intern

“When you’re driving a truck of this size, it takes precision, focus, and constant attentiveness to ensure your safety, as well as the safety of the other motorists and pedestrians.

It’s an honor to be recognized for this achievement, and I hope this motivates other drivers to be as safe as possible on the road.”

Landscaping biz a passion for local teen

By Steve BurnS

Grant Frerking has the inner fire and work ethic of a successful entrepreneur.

He does his own invoices for his 2-year-old, homebased Johns Creek business, hires his own workers and hires out as a subcontractor.

He also enjoys lending guidance to his employees.

He stresses that they should save 15 percent of their pay and likes to say that his company’s vision “teaches them a good work ethic at a young age.”

And by the way, Frerking is just 16 years old.

He also plays on the high school football and basketball teams at The Wesleyan School, although he says that his business is a “passion.”

And it’s working. Metro Mulch LLC already has Atlanta Pine Straw and drawn the attention of a

larger Atlanta business.

That has led to Frerking

and his workers doing installation for the Atlanta Public School System, among other jobs.

“It’s a lot of late nights and early mornings,” Frerking said. “There’s no time for sitting in the hallway at school. I’m either working on the business or getting ready for a game.”

The whole thing started about two years ago when Frerking and two of his buddies got together, using an older friend’s pickup truck to haul and install pine straw and mulch for residences.

“Not many kids would focus on that,” he recalled.

“We dove into it.”

Frerking’s efforts eventually drew the notice of Matt Lowe, the CEO of Swift Straw, an Atlanta landscape business. Lowe’s company has the contract for Wesleyan, and he contacted Frerking in March.

“Our business had a

Helicopter parents not doing kids any favors It’s no secret that standardized test scores have more to do with zip code than anything else: the wealthier the area, the higher the scores.

Nor is that the result, as some would have us believe, of any sort of “privilege.” Studies show that children reared by a married mother and father do better academically, and intact families tend to be wealthier. When parents make good life choices, their offspring typically follow suit.

Unfortunately, here in the affluent suburbs, a phenomenon has arisen that threatens progress. It’s known as the “helicopter parent,” although I believe that term understates the danger. Parents who merely hover are annoying but basically harmless.

What we see now are parents who don’t just hover; they lurk, awaiting any opportunity to insert themselves into their children’s business, including matters

adults who think the world owes them a living and who mistake their individual desires for inalienable rights.

When I was growing up, the rule at our house was abundantly clear: If you get in trouble at school, you’re Rob in even more trouble when Jenkins you get home. As far as my parents were concerned, the children really ought to the teachers and coaches handle themselves. Instead and administrators were of being in the background, always right, whether they they’re constantly in the were right or not.

heart in the right place, at least. For the most part, they’re trying to do what’s best for our kids, from assigning homework to meting out discipline to divvying up playing time.

Even when teachers and coaches are wrong — unless they’re egregiously wrong with potentially disastrous consequences — are we really doing our children any favors by removing all obstacles from their path?

We expect a lot from our educational system, especially here in the suburbs. But teachers cannot prepare our kids for life by themselves. They need help from parents — and sometimes the best kind of help is simply getting out of the way.

shortage of good, reliable subcontractors to do installations,” Lowe said. “(Frerking’s company) is one of the best we’ve got.”

Now, Frerking estimates that about 80 percent of his business comes via Lowe’s company. Lowe and Frerking meet every two weeks, and Frerking does the estimates on jobs that Swift Straw sends him.

A typical work week is 65 to 70 hours in the summer and about 30 hours a week when school is in session. Spring is the best time of year to build new business, Frerking said.

And in the Atlanta area, “there will always be new houses going up.”

The inspiration may have been genetic. Frerking’s uncle in Kansas City owns a landscape business. Also, Frerking admires finished products such as athletic fields and golf courses on Sea Island. “I have a pas-

sion for it,” he says of landscape work.

But his priorities seem to be in order. Noting how competitive the landscape industry is, Frerking said he wouldn’t advise anyone to enter the business now.

He explained that his business succeeds because it cuts time and labor costs, which is the “toughest part” of the industry. “Reliable labor is the key to the industry.”

He still plans to attend college. “I need to have a degree” to pursue entrepreneurship, he said. “What I’ve learned is dealing with people. … I’ve learned more than I could in an algebra or economics class.”

Still, this is a person who has not yet reached voting age. Does the workload ever wear Frerking down?

“Not that I’ve seen,” Lowe said. “I can tell his passion. … He’s very special.”

raise funds for a new diecut for their Potty Rocker figurine.

The Kickstarter was also a way to create an online presence. Shortly after launch, Pourchier was courted by several large marketing firms, but she wanted to keep the company grounded in its roots and declined their offers.

Pourchier promotes the Potty Rocker through videos shot in her Loganville basement, converted into a mini-studio and surrounded by her children’s playroom. Pourchier’s

daughter Penelope, 9, and son Banks, 7, love to get in on the action and star in many of the company’s social media videos and pictures.

While it’s certainly a departure from working at Georgia State or her time as a teacher at Pharr Elementary, Pourchier loves the hands-on aspect of her work and the responses she’s gotten from other families.

“At a trade show, I met a grandmother who has a special needs granddaughter. It was the highlight of my trip to hand the Potty Rocker to her and encourage her to play,” she said.

In addition to play, the self-proclaimed “poop doctors” aren’t afraid to use a little toilet humor to help their cause. Their company T-shirts feature sayings like “smell the roses” and “dangerous tailwinds” on the rear and their blog posts contain loads of puns and humorous anecdotes.

“We’re the butt of our own joke,” Pourchier said.

“It takes a lot of deep, slightly absurd potty humor to get (this job) done.”

The Potty Rocker Kickstarter has a goal of $3,000 and ends on Thursday. For more information, visit www.thepottyrocker.com.
