Inmates at the Gwinnett County Jail received five dogs that were saved from being euthanized and are training them in simple commands to ready them for adoption through a new program called Operation Second Chance. Two inmates share each dog while feeding, training and caring for them. The dogs live with the inmates in their cell.

A tribute to the late King of Pop and a world record holding event over 32,000 people danced simultaneously to Thriller.

I don’t usually get attached to games but I haven’t been back to Sanford Stadium since graduation. So having been almost a decade, it was a little surreal.
