Two injured after ‘elderly’ man drives through window of Norcross’ Department of Driver Services
Two customers were injured at Norcross’ Department of Driver Services Wednesday morning after a man drove through the window of the building.
Around 11 a.m., an “elderly Asian male” was pulling into a parking spot at the DDS, which is located off Beaver Ruin Road, when, instead of hitting the brake, he hit gas pedal, according to Norcross Police Department Sgt. Eric Butynski.

I read the abstract.
I do not work in this field but am interested in this sort of thing, and the summary of their results is intriguing. Not familiar with this journal nor the authors' institutions.

Georgia: Federal judge issues injunction in absentee ballot rejections, but Kemp wants postponement
U.S. District Court Judge Leigh Martin May issued the injunction after giving attorneys for civil rights groups and residents who filed the complaint, as well as those representing the Gwinnett County Board of Elections and Secretary of State Brian Kemp an opportunity to weigh in on it.

Link to tweet
I browse DU almost exclusively on my Android phone, using Chrome. Until the last few days, when someone inserted a link to a tweet, it would briefly display "Link to tweet", then the actual tweet would display without me needing to click on it. Now, it just perpetually says "Link to tweet" and never automatically displays. I've not changed any settings on Chrome. Has something changed on DU?
Red districts in Georgia flipped.
Democratic newcomers flipped two state House seats in northeast Georgia considered so conservative that the party hasn’t even contested them since the lines were redrawn in 2012. And Democrats captured an Atlanta-based state Senate district long held by a Republican, breaking the GOP super-majority in the chamber.
