Your name, um where you were born, when, if you want, your ethnic background. (0:19) Dr. Harris: Ok. My name is Paulette Harris and um I was born Paulette Proctor and on October 5th, 1949 here in Augusta Georgia at University Hospital. And um, went to school here um all the way through – graduated from high school from Richmond Academy in 1967; and then, I went to Augusta College starting in Fall of ‘67 as an Undergraduate majored in French, and um was minoring in music most of that time. And um, changed my mind toward the end that I might want to teach. Since, I’d actually taught Piano since I was 13; probably would of have made sense that I would have thought I might want to teach. But, I guess I saw that as a different type of teacher. And so, um I changed right at the end and fortunately they didn’t have a whole lot of requirements for you to change at that point in time, from um completing my French to um adding a field in Education. So, that I could – I did a lab, one lab, during that period of time and one public school. Um, I remember going out to [INSERT NAME OF SCHOOL] and I was in the seventh grade Science class, which was quite a change from a French major to begin with a seventh grade science class.

  • Welcome to Augusta
    Welcome to Augusta Children’s Hospital of Georgia, Riverwalk– Downtown Augusta Augusta University- Established 1998 Established 1908 Augusta National Golf Club Established 1934 Andrea Johnson Associate Broker, Vice President Accredited Buyers Representative Graduate Realtor Institute Office: 706-922-9292 Cell: 706-832-5678 Email: [email protected] www.AndreaJohnsonRealEstate.com The Best of all Worlds: Augusta Courtesy of Augusta Magazine Augusta, Ga. is the ideal city for you to live and work! Although almost half-million people call Georgia's second largest city home, you'll be pleasantly surprised by the small town feel this city exudes. We revel in our lack of traffic jams and the convenience of being within a short drive of anywhere in the metro area. At the same time, we also enjoy a plethora of first class amenities, including fine dining, professional sporting events, shopping at great stores and unique specialty shops and attending first rate cultural events and concerts. One of the most prestigious events in all of sports is the Masters Tournament, a tradition we have shared with the world since its inception in the 1930s. In a beautiful city at a beautiful time of year, a golf course of stunning perfection hides its toughness behind a serene facade of manicured botanical beauty. Once you walk the hallowed grounds of the Augusta National, you'll begin to understand what the allure and mystique of this fabled tournament is all about. But if artistry of the non-golf variety is what you long for, get ready. Augusta's growing arts community includes its well known ballet, opera, symphony and theater companies, touring Broadway production that make stopovers in the Garden City and other annual events on Au- gusta's very busy cultural calendar.

  • In the Family
    Thursday,eeper March 18, 2004 Volume 14 I Number 6 Research supports veggie wisdom by Toni Baker Researchers have found another good reason to eat your fruits and vegeta­ bles and not overuse antibiotics. A transporter in the colon called SLC5A8 plays an important role in enabling the colon to get the last bit of good out of food before the unusable is flushed away, according to research currently published online as an acceler­ ated communication in the Journal of Biological Chemistry. In an amazing model of efficiency, good bacteria in the colon produce an enzyme that releases glucose found in plant cell walls, the leftovers of broc­ coli and other vegetables, fruits and cereals, which cannot be digested in the small intestine. In the oxygen-less environment of the bacteria-packed colon, bacteria ferment this glucose to use for energy which also results in the pro­ duction of short-chain fatty acids, the preferred nutrients for colon cells. Medical College of Georgia researchers have found - in animal and human cells - that SLC5A8 is a final piece of the model, a transporter expressed by colonic cells to absorb the just-produced, energy-packed short-chain fatty acids. "We used to teach that bacteria produced short-chain fatty acids which are Timothy Coleman (from right), Jackie Cox, Lisa Rote, Jennifer Nunn, Vickie Harrison, Stephanie Howell, Jason Rote, Wilma Nunn and Stenen used by colonic cells but it was not known that these cells possessed an effi­ Nunn make working at MCG a family affair.
