Teachers? Ms. Cochran, in the past I have never seen anything but talk with BOE. Mr. Austin did not insult the teachers. Maybe some members of the BOE, but not Mr. Austin. As far as his right to do this, he is an elected official, so the folks will make that decision when election time comes again. Is it not great to live in the USA, in fact just saw the third lady join the Supreme Court. So do not pull the teachers in this fray...the BOC may support teachers verbally, but the last time I checked everything rested with the BOE. You served under the former chairman, and you knew when the

I think he work under the veil of the University System, however, he is directly paid by the Georgia Athletic Association. The cars, cells, and so on plus bonus were in his contract. Probably would not have happened to the average person, but this is a little different. Not that I agree, but it took a day or two to work out. Think it was handled about the best way it could, with it being a holiday. When is the last time you saw a report that was so detailed. I am sure the trooper was reminded to make sure it was complete on this one...

Watching on TV...it is evident that Tommie ask questions....but folks, some of them are the stupid side, that the speaker has just mentioned. In front of Tommie is everything he needs to know...he just wants to justify his seat. Now on the other end of the table is Mr. Ragsdale, who has two issues, PCHS traffic light, and motion to adjourn and the first one out of his seat. Next time just watch the show...also reminds me of the comedy channel...and I guess I pay for the franchise fee to watch it repeated 400 times....

Thanks for posting this...looks like he and Damon Evans are in the same ballpark....but we must remember that we are all individuals, and responsible for our actions.

It is wrong...and if you are a donor to then you would understand...some of us pay his salary. This is not a state funded position. I hate that it happened and he could have hired a limo and really done what he wanted to. At $550,000 per year he can afford it. He also deals with student athletes and simply we are not going to tolerate this behavior.

This is one of those cases, where they want to get information out when they need something, and now that it involves one of their own....we get nothing. You do not call the GBI and so forth and not give out information. Either do it the right way on all cases or none at all. This has always been a problem, and Pubby should advise them of this. When they want a criminal then they get the space.

Rated I think as 10th in the world for seashores....600 miles puts you there..Ocracoke for a week, with sidewalks going up at 5pm with peace...would visit in a minute, plan to go again in the future....

wow, every time at election we talk money, heck, we cannot even get the folks to vote...so vote for who you want to. I would imagine, that a change with anyone new would help. As you can see, nobody, cared about school board. So, really nothing to gripe about. We are a red zone county, with no industry, and that is the bottom line...

Signs in general, usually you ask a person for permission...I know some right of ways and so on....but if you do look around many are on private property and that comes with permission. My rule....no one can put a sign out because my yard if first and not a sign...

Some Home Insurance company told me the other day minimum of $100 per sq ft for rebuild..Had really nothing to do with tax value..

My comment concerned this...are we seeing more of this....police being involved in more incidents....I trust them greatly....but, the last few years have not been great....yes, there are bad apples in my industry...but law enforcement has been highly thought of for years...missed my point....

Certainly we have other things to do than this thread...It's Fathers Day....go and enjoy.....I thought this was a a meet and greet.....

Have you noticed recently, Cobb boating incident, Atlanta Policeman telling lady to move off sidewalk, and many, many more throughout the nation. The video's of police doing things they really should not do. I have supported local authorities for years, but is this a trend? It may get better, but with technology today I would really be careful if I was in law enforcement..

I may have missed this, but Mr Stout did not say anything about EDUCATION....and the recent flyer from Sen Heath bragged about everything except EDUCATION...so I am going to find someone that introduces bills....have you ever gone to see what Sen Heath and others introduce....nothing drastic....

Better make sure that is OK with your former boss...

I agree, the latest flyer from Sen Heath....mentioned zero, natta, nothing..period about EDUCATION...no wonder the Bridges signs are going up everywhere....I just cannot believe that this said nothing about education, balancing the budget, but not about industry or education...oh well....not surprised....now Roy is promising every teacher the world....but dont think they will buy in this time....they dont forget Roy...

I am amazed...wow, looks good with the haircut...it is amazing that someone wants to run for change...and change he did....

The new park paid for by taxpayers across from First Baptist....looking better everyday...sure it will be used constantly.....

Take her to Tanner Villa Rica ER and will be treated wonderful....and Wellstar can do without your money....

Under They wait until photos show up on Busted....the names from Rome should be available soon if you need the names....up to 20 were involved but if I can get the link will be glad to post...just dont have the names from yesterdays they got busted for meth lab either....so they will show up on Busted also...only cost $1.07

Well they will get arrested whether they damage a school or business....look around the country and I am sure that this is not the only place. And by the way they did arrest 3 yesterday for the rolling meth deal...so you can get busted anywhere at school or away....destruction of property will not be tolerated....maybe they do want to see there photos in the busted paper....

Busted.....almost 14 students arrested at Armuchee High school....more to be arrested, hope they enjoyed the pranks...

I keep reading about wasting tax dollars and so on, and so on. Ok, fast forward to the next two years, no industry, foreclosure's still way up....what are you going to say then.....we have cut 10 days out of teacher pay, we cut 150 plus teachers....students will have to walk within 1/2 mile....my point is....what is going to happen, when we only have so much money, and cuts have been made...OK...no sports $277,000 or so in middle school, not really alot, so what is going to be cut in the future....tax digest....going straight down....I see constantly about wasting tax dollars....we really d

several years ago a lawn person told me that it was a lack of nitrogen, that should have been down in the spring...

Evidently they know more that the BOE does because they make a profit, and evidently we have not done that....this is the problem behind the butler bldg at the board....just another day up there...
