ATLANTA- Alpharetta real estate broker Robert Negrelli, 65, plead guilty in federal district court to making false statements during a 2005 bankruptcy case filed with the Bankruptcy Court for the Northern District of Georgia, earlier this month.

Negrelli, who once owned a real estate company in Alpharetta which "specialized in the sale of high-end homes and horse farms in the area" and was a licensed real estate broker deliberately falsified his income claiming to have earned, a mere, $81,000 during a two-year span. When confronted about his claims he admitted to making a significant amount more through his company, Negrelli Realty.

ALPHARETTA- Kathryn, Annika, Fiona and Petra, the group of sisters ranging from 10-15, are like most teenage girls; they like to shop, read Twilight books and hang out with their friends. However, they're different; they're a bluegrass/pop/country group called "Von Grey" which just happens to be their last name.

LAWRENCEVILLE, GA. – The Georgia Department of Transportation will hold a construction information session on the I-85 Express Lane Project on Sept. 1 from 4 p.m. to 7 p.m. at the Gwinnett Civic Center. The project to convert 16 miles of HOV lanes to HOT lanes will offer more choices to all motorists, including single occupant vehicles and more reliable trip times in the corridor.

"This is the first project of its kind in Georgia," said DOT Commissioner Vance C. Smith, Jr. "With construction expected to begin in mid-September, it is extremely important that motorists understand how changes along the interstate will impact their commutes."

SANDY SPRINGS, GA -- In Ms. Spizman's kindergarten class at Spalding Drive Charter Elementary School, there were brave faces and proud parents but no tears.

"We were here for Pre-K last year, so it's easier," said Rachel Simon, who snapped photos of her son Eli at his desk early Monday. "He's doing great."

"He's pretty excited, but he keeps it inside," said Matt Simon, Eli's dad. "He just wants us to leave."

Monday is the first day of school for more than 92,000 students in Fulton County Schools, the state's fourth largest public school system.

Students started their first day at least two weeks later than other school systems in Metro Atlanta.

To make up the time, the system's adding ten minutes of math instruction to every school day.

"It's thinking of the kids when they're extending the schedule, which works for me," said parent Brenda Thomas.
