Coca-Cola announced in May that it would be phasing out the HonestTea line from its portfolio. Bethesda resident Seth Goldman co-founded the drink company in 1998 and was its CEO until 2015– when he stepped back and became executive chairman of Beyond Meat. This morning, however, Goldman stated that he would be re-entering the bottled tea business with the announcement of his new line, Just Ice Tea.
In a series of tweets, Goldman announced the following:
Construction continues to progress at The Carnegie at Washingtonian, a Kisco Senior Living Center, that will feature a seven-story complex with 302 one and two bedroom floorpans for independent living and memory care residences next to Life Time in Gaithersburg.
The groundbreaking of The Carnegie at Washingtonian Center was last October, but the work has been a lot more visible with the addition of the cranes a few months back. Situated on 8.5 acres beside RIO Lakefront at Washingtonian Center, The Carnegie is set to welcome residents in the spring of 2024.

July Events at Montgomery Parks Include:
Former Montgomery County Council Candidate, Ruthann Aron, was denied by the Court of Special Appeals her attempt to overturn her previous conviction for solicitation to commit murder, after attempting to hire a hitman to kill her husband and another man in 1997. Aron moved to Maryland in the 1970s with her husband and two children. While here, she acquired a law degree at Catholic University and became a real estate developer. She was later on the Montgomery County Planning Board.
Ruthann Aron was was arrested in June 1997 for attempting to hire a hitman. She approached William Mossberg, the owner of a local landfill, who immediately went to the police and worked with them to catch Aron attempting to hire the hitman to kill her husband- a urologist named Barry Aron, and another man- Arthur Khan, a lawyer who prosecuted a fraud case against Ruthann Aron and testified against her at a later slander trial stemming from a run for U.S. Senator from Maryland in 1994, which she lost the Republican nomination to former Tennessee Senator Bill Brock (who later lost to Paul Sarbanes).

“Lack of access to transportation should not be a barrier to voting,” said County Executive Marc Elrich. “I want to ensure that all our eligible residents can cast a vote. As many as a quarter of households within our dense urban areas do not have access to a vehicle. That is why it is important to highlight the bus routes that serve the early voting centers that will be open from July 7 through July 14. Our bus system is imperative to ensure that all residents have access to voting centers regardless of where they live and their socio-economic status.”
