Teenagers hanging out at Six Flags Over Georgia will need adult supervision in the evenings, according to new rules the amusement park has put into place.
Six Flags Over Georgia just announced that beginning Friday, those ages 15 and younger will need a chaperone after 4 p.m. inside the park.
What Is Six Flags’ Youth Chaperone Policy?
Guests aged 15 years or younger must be accompanied by a chaperone who is at least 21 years old to enter or remain in the park after 4 p.m. daily. The park reserves the right to enforce this requirement earlier if necessary.
The chaperone must possess a valid photo ID and can oversee a maximum of 10 guests per day.
Six Flags did not specify the reason for the policy change at this time, but emphasized their commitment to maintaining the park as a place where families and friends can enjoy fun and immersive experiences together.
Earlier this year, the park’s opening day was marred by multiple altercations, culminating in a teenager being shot outside the park by a responding police officer.

Congested gridlock is a part of everyday day life in Atlanta, Georgia, but be way you can save time is to take advantage of Interstate 285.
Do you need to drive on metro Atlanta’s circular highway, this article will help you.
Interstate 285: Things You Need To Know
More than 2 million are said to drive on I-285 every day, coming from as far away as southern Tennessee and western Alabama.
The highway encompasses Fulton, DeKalb and Clayton counties and parts of Atlanta, Decatur, Clarkston, Vinings, Hapeville, College Park, Dunwoody and Doraville.
When Was 285 Built?
The first phase of I-285 was built in 1963 as part of the federal highway system to overhaul interstate travel around the nation. The interstate officially opened on Oct. 15, 1969.
The idea of 285 arose from plans for a loop around the city devise by the Georgia Department of Transportation.
How Many Miles Around Is 285?
I-285 is 66 miles around, according to the Georgia Department of Transportation. While the freeway touches Atlanta and DeKalb counties, it technically does not enter Cobb or Gwinnett counties, the two other major metro Atlanta jurisdictions.
I-285 is connected to three other federal highways, I-75, I-85 and I-20. Another major state road that cross 285 is SR 400, where the toll used to be.
What Time Is The Best Time To Drive Through Atlanta?
If you have to go straight through the middle of the city, it’s best to travel early through Atlanta. I don’t mean 8 a.m., but 5 or 6 a.m. at the latest.
The earlier you travel, the easier it is to get through without gridlock. Around 7 a.m., the rush hour begins and won’t subside until around 10 a.m.
If you want to know what the interstate looks like before you travel, go to some of the TV stations that will tell you, like:
One of the most prominent areas of I-285 is Spaghetti Junction. It is the I-85 interchange with I-285. If you want to know how to drive in Atlanta, you need to put safety first… and pray!

Hours after the presidential debate in Atlanta, President Joe Biden stepped inside a local Waffle House and met with patrons and employees.
The date was June 27, 2024. Biden had just went toe-to-toe against presumptive GOP presidential nominee Donald Trump and, looking back, Atlanta was the place where Biden’s campaign showed the beginning of the end — but it wasn’t the food!
As he entered the Waffle House, Biden was captured on camera dapping up a fellow diner and greeting onlookers as Secret Service agents secured the perimeter. Can you imagine if you were working at Waffle House and this happened?
When he visits Atlanta, Biden has made it a habit to stop at a local eatery. He once dined at Busy Bee, the popular soul food restaurant near the AU Center on Martin Luther King Boulevard.
If you were a president, would would you order to eat at Waffle House? Would you go for the All Star? Would you opt for Steak and Eggs? Of course, your hashbrowns would have to be covered, smothered and perhaps chunked. There are many things people don’t know about Waffle House.
And while we’re at it, do you know about Waffle House’s secret plate code?
For example, a jelly packet placed at the bottom center indicates two scrambled eggs. To signify a light, runny scramble, an upside-down mayo packet is placed above the jelly. For well-done scrambled eggs, the mayo packet is placed right-side-up. For a standard fried egg, the level of doneness is indicated from left to right across the plate.
Let us know your favorite meal at Waffle House.

There are some other breakfast spots Biden could have hit up if he wanted the lowdown. Check out the best breakfast restaurants in Atlanta.

President Biden shocked the world on Sunday when he announced that he won’t seek re-election in the 2024 presidential campaign.
The news is without precedent but not entirely surprising, given how bad Biden did a few weeks ago in the debate against GOP presidential nominee Donald Trump.
The debate, held in Atlanta and hosted by CNN, exposed the President, 81, as someone who couldn’t remember basic facts and names. The gaffes not only were seized on by Trump, but the political stage at large. What happened in Atlanta became fodder for the world.
“While it has been my intention to seek reelection, I believe it is in the best interest of my party and the country for me to stand down and to focus solely on fulfilling my duties as President for the remainder of my term,” Biden wrote in a letter posted on social media site X. “I will speak to the Nation later this week in more detail about my decision.”
I’m Atlanta, reaction to Biden’s exit was swift:
Atlanta Mayor Andre DIckens said Biden “an extraordinary American who has dedicated his entire life to working people.”
“His incredible record on jobs, the economy, climate, reproductive rights, and his leadership on the world stage make him one of the most consequential leaders in history,” Dickens said in a statement. “Atlanta is stronger because of his leadership. Our nation is better off because of his service and I’m proud to call him friend, leader, and most of all, President.”
Former Mayor and current Biden Administration aide Keisha Lance Bottoms said “my heart is filled with a profound sense of sadness and admiration for the man who ahs served our nation with unwavering dedication and grace.”
Bill Simmons, a lifelong Democrat and Atlanta resident, said he was stunned when he saw the news about Biden.
”Shocked isn’t the word,” Simmons, a Morehouse College Alumni, said over the phone. “We’re a few months from the election. To say that this will throw the Democratic Party in disarray is an understatement.”
On the other hand, some feel that a younger candidate — like Vice President Kamala Harris —will help energize the base.
”This is actually exciting,” said Kelli Freeman, an occupational therapist from Woodstock, Georgia. “The first black woman president? Are you kidding me?”
In his announcement, Biden said endorsed Harris for president.
“My very first decision as the party nominee in 2020 was to pick Kamala Harris as my Vice President,” Biden posted. “And it’s been the best decision I’ve made. Today I want to offer my full support and endorsement for Kamala to be the nominee of our party this year.”
Harris thanked Biden for his support and said she will continue to ready herself for the race.
“I am honored to have the President’s endorsement and my intention is to earn and win this nomination,” she said.
Biden visited Atlanta frequently during his term as president as well as vice president to Barack Obama, who weighed in on the race as well post-Biden.
”We will be navigating uncharted waters in the days ahead,” Obama said in a statement. “But I have extraordinary confidence that the leaders of our party will be able to create a process from which an outstanding nominee emerges. I believe that Joe Biden’s vision of a generous, prosperous, and united America that provides opportunity for everyone will be on full display at the Democratic Convention in August. And I expect that every single one of us are prepared to carry that message of hope and progress forward into November and beyond.”
Harris is no stranger to Atlanta, having visited the city twice in the past month for different initiatives such as economic empowerment and anti-gun violence.
For his part, Biden made himself at home in Georgia’s largest city as well, eating at soul food place Busy Bee near the AU Center well as Waffle House right after the debate that sealed his presidential fate.

Keeping track of your menstrual cycle doesn’t have to be a chore. You can simply let a period app to do it for you.
But which period apps are the best ones? This article is going to explore all the best period apps available for download on your phone this year.
5 Best Period Apps You Need To Be Using
But first, let’s get into some basics about the need for technology to help track our monthly cycles.
There are all kinds of menstrual monitoring apps, from those for women with bleeding disorders to pregnancy trackers as well.
What Do Period Apps Do?
Not only, do period apps remind us when the monthly menstrual cycle is set to begin, but they also track abnormalities and give us a record we can use to gauge our health.
Some other tasks that the best periods perform are:
- Some apps generate charts and reports that show you how you’re doing
- Calculate your ovulation days so you can know when you’re most fertile
- Some apps make it easy to share your health information with your medical provider
Keep in mind that many period tracking apps share your personal information, so if you’re squeamish about that sort of thing, be aware!
Do Period Apps Actually Work?
Many women have cycles that ebb and flow and change suddenly for one reason or another. Apps have made tracking menstrual cycles much easier, but if you want to protect yourself from becoming pregnant, it’s best to use contraception.
Period apps work, but they are best used along with common sense.
What Is The Most Accurate Period App?
Here are the best period apps on the market. The reviews were taken from the actual app pages in the Google Play Store and Apple’s App Store.
Here’s what one reviewer says about Period Tracker: “I originally downloaded this app because I wanted to track certain behaviors with relation to my cycle. Specifically, back pains and those days I just got so frustrated. Sure enough, they were usually a few days before my cycle. What I love about this app is how customizable it is. It has a variety of little icons and pictures, and you can track anything you want from chocolate cravings to headaches. I used a little picture of a whale to track when I started feeling bloated. I just noticed they have a little corked wine bottle with incrementally more bubbles in it to represent constipation. How could you not love that?“
2. Eve
Here’s what one Google Play reviewer says about Eve by Glow: “Cons:First,glow premium is a whole joke. Understandable,not paying for the gems I don’t want is fair on the basis that I’ll never use a certain one.I feel as though I should be able to taylor my own experience on the app.I don’t care to know about my cycle twins when it’s about my own. ↪But why do I have too pay for my own cycle’s information?? All that needs to be free .I know bedsider exists-besides it, uneeded info abounds.Had app since 2017wasn’t like this Pros:Cycle preditions acc.”
3. Clue
Here’s what one reviewer says about Clue: “I’ve used this app for 4 years and it’s been great! It tracks my cycle accurately, as long as I put in the data (sometimes I forget lol). There is a lot of helpful information to understand what they’re tracking and why and what it tells them and you. It’s discreet, has a nice design, and isn’t overtly feminine, which is nice for trans and gender-nonconforming folks who menstruate!”
4. MyFlo
Here’s what one reviewer says about the MyFlo period tracker app. “The app has a lot of information. The only reason I didn’t give it five stars is because they have some things that need to be improved on the app. 1. It can take 10+ seconds to load 2. If you click back to go back to another screen it will freeze 3. If I want to add some details to my calendar for previous days I can’t.”
5. Flo
Here’s what one reviewer says about the Flo app: “I have been using this app for awhile now and have been very dedicated to tracking my body’s cycle. With this app I avoided pregnancy successfully for 2 years without hormonal birth control by working around my fertility rhythm using the information Flo provided. The longer you use it, the more accurate it it becomes.”Last Thoughts
One thing you need to keep in mind is that an app is manmade and can be wrong sometimes. That being said, explore apps that specifically cater to your needs.
No matter which app you choose, it’s also always a good idea to run it by your ob-gyn.

Nuisance calls can work on your nerves. These telemarketers and scammers never rest. The good news is that it’s fairly simple to find out information on who’s calling you.
All you need to do is a reverse phone lookup. Atlanta is one of the top cities for spam, according to Hiya. So, finding out who’s calling you is a priority.
Are There Any Legit Reverse Phone Lookup Sites?
In this article, I’ll show you what I use to do a reverse phone lookup to see who’s calling me. There are several sites that can give you some of the information you need.
When you typically go to a reverse phone lookup website, there’s a portal where you enter information on a person. Then it will take you to a page that shows you grayed out information.
To show you the full results, usually there’s a fee attached. But I’m going to show you some free websites to choose from.
What Is A Reverse Phone Lookup?
A reverse phone lookup is an electronic database that allows users to find out personal information on a caller based on their phone number.
The reason the “reverse” is included in a “reverse phone lookup” is because typically you search for a person’s phone number based on already having their name. But the process is reversed in a reverse phone lookup.
How Phone Lookups Began
In the beginning, the “Yellow Pages” were the defacto way people found phone numbers for companies and individuals.
Soon operators went out of style and the phone companies introduced call waiting, voicemail and caller ID, which was the first electronic phone lookup.
Meanwhile, law enforcement agencies and some government agencies were using reverse phone lookups in print for decades before they became available to the public.
With the tremendous adoption of the internet, sites began to pop up that promised reverse phone lookup for a fee.
But there are also some free reverse phone lookup databases.
What Is The Most Accurate Reverse Cell Phone Lookup Site?
When it comes to free options, TruePeopleSearch.com is the one that will give you a phone number without cost. Many other sites will charge you a small fee.
When you go to the site, you’ll see three tabs in the middle of the page: Name, Reverse Phone and Reverse Address. Tap on the middle one: Reverse phone (see screenshot below).
What Is The Best Reverse Phone Lookup Site?
When I get an unfamiliar phone number, I never answer it. I wait until the call is over to find out who has called me. Here are the best websites I’ve used.
Final Thoughts
If you go to many of the sites listed above, they will show all the recent cell phone lookups so you can see which numbers.
Are you paying too much for your cell phone bill? Here’s how to lower it right now.
Speaking of electronics, if you want to know where to take your cracked phone, here are some handy resources.
