BREAK: CU of GA STORY 1: Former Marietta Standout Dearica Hamby Wins Bronze with Team USA 3x3 Hoops Team USA's women's 3x3 basketball team overcame a rough start at the Paris Olympics to win bronze. After losing their first three games, the team, featuring Rhyne Howard, rallied to win the next three and a play-in game to reach the semifinals. Despite a close 18-16 overtime loss to Spain, they clinched the bronze with a 16-13 win against Canada. Howard contributed four points and a rebound, while Hailey Van Lith led with six points. Dearica Hamby and Cierra Burdick each added three points, with Hamby also leading in rebounds with six. STORY 2: Judge Asked How Cobb Map Ruling Affects Commissioner After Cobb Superior Court Judge Kellie Hill ruled that the "home rule" map used by the Cobb County Board of Commissioners was unconstitutional, Democratic activist Mindy Seger filed a petition seeking clarity on its impact on Commissioner Jerica Richardson. Seger wants to know if the ruling creates an immediate vacancy for Richardson, who now lives outside District 2 under the new state legislature map. Seger's attorney, Justin O'Dell, clarified that the petition is a request for clarification, not an appeal. The ruling has also led to uncertainty about whether Richardson and Commissioner Monique Sheffield will complete their terms or face an extended term until a special election. Cobb County Elections Director Tate Fall will present a new election schedule to the Board of Elections on August 12. STORY 3: Marietta Native Robert Patrick Honored at Strand Theatre On Sunday, Robert Patrick, known for his role as the T-1000 in "Terminator 2," received a Lifetime Achievement Award at the Cobb International Film Festival held at Marietta's Strand Theatre.

From the BG Ad Group Studio this is your news minute on the Marietta Daily Journal Podcast presented by Credit Union of Georgia. Today is Monday, August 5th, and I'm Keith Ippolito. Governor Brian Kemp has activated up to 2,000 Georgia National Guard troops in response to Hurricane Debby, which made landfall in Florida's Big Bend region as a Category 1 storm Monday morning. With sustained winds of 80 miles per hour, Debby is expected to bring heavy rains and flooding as it moves across South Georgia. The National Hurricane Center forecasts six to twelve inches of rain for the Golden Isles along Southeast Georgia's coast, with some areas potentially receiving up to 20 inches.

Currently, parts of Coastal Georgia and the Lowcountry of South Carolina are under a tropical storm warning, with Debby anticipated to downgrade to a tropical storm by Monday night.

We talk with Catherine Ridley, VP of One Hundred Miles, about wildlife protection efforts in coastal Georgia, focusing on the endangered North Atlantic Right Whale and Loggerhead Sea Turtles who breed here and are at risk due to fatal ship strikes, fishing gear entanglements, dredging, and noise and light pollution, as well as discussing ancient Horseshoe Crabs, who are especially under threat lately by pharmaceutical industries who are capturing (kidnapping) hundreds of thousands of them and draining them of their blue blood, despite a synthetic substance that serves the same medical purpose without the massive animal exploitation. In this 27-minute interview with In Tune to Nature host Carrie Freeman, Catherine Ridley discusses policy solutions such as zones for slower ship speeds, beach lighting ordinances, dredging bans during breeding season, and synthetic alternatives to horseshoe crab blood, all of which would save animal lives if we made them and our ecosystem health a priority. Catherine urges civic engagement and for us to get passionate and speak up. See the Horseshoe Crab Recovery Coalition that has action items to ban the mass exploitation https://hscrabrecovery.org/ See action items for all coastal species at One Hundred Miles' page on wildlife https://onehundredmiles.org/wildlife/ and you can join their email action item list here https://onehundredmiles.org/join-mailing-list/ In Tune to Nature is a weekly show airing on Wednesdays from 6:30-7pm EST on Atlanta indie station WRFG (Radio Free Georgia) 89.3FM hosted by Carrie Freeman or Melody Paris.

GDP Script/ Top Stories for Jan 12th Publish Date: Jan 11th HENSSLER 15 From the Henssler Financial Studio Welcome to the Gwinnett Daily Post Podcast. Today is Friday, January 12th and Happy heavenly Birthday to boxer Joe Frazier. ***01.12.24 – BIRTHDAY – JOE FRAZIER*** I'm Bruce Jenkins and here are your top stories presented by KIA Mall of Georgia. Gwinnett commissioners will vote on 'intent' to call for transit referendum on Tuesday Inflation causing 6 in 10 millennials to treat themselves at home more Mill Creek Grad Making Her Mark at Kennesaw State University All of this and more is coming up on the Gwinnett Daily Post podcast, and if you are looking for community news, we encourage you to listen daily and subscribe! Break 1: MOG STORY 1: Gwinnett commissioners will vote on 'intent' to call for transit referendum Gwinnett County commissioners are taking steps towards a November referendum that could decide the fate of the county's transit system. The required meeting with city leaders was held last Tuesday, and a key vote is scheduled for this Tuesday to begin the formal process of calling for a referendum. The vote will determine whether to hold another vote in spring to officially call for the referendum in November. If approved, Gwinnett voters would decide whether to implement a 1% special sales tax for transit expansion. The proposed plan focuses on buses, microtransit, and bus rapid transit, excluding rail expansion. The new transit plan aims to address previous concerns and has garnered support from city officials. STORY 2: Inflation causing 6 in 10 millennials to treat themselves at home more Based on recent findings, it appears that a significant number of millennials are opting for special nights in with self-pampering rather than dining out. This trend seems to be driven by the rising cost of living and inflation, with 63% of millennials attributing their preference to these economic factors. Despite these challenges, they are willing to spend approximately $160 on a special meal at home for two, indulging in items like seafood, stuffed olives, and chocolates. The study also noted a growing interest in experiential eating at home, such as creating wood-fired pizzas and assembling charcuterie boards. Interestingly, the survey revealed that millennials are three times more likely to treat their partner to a special meal at home than themselves. As for cheese-related preferences, the study indicated several misconceptions among respondents, although the specifics were not detailed. STORY 3: Great Chemistry: Mill Creek Grad Making Her Mark at Kennesaw State University Ra'Nya Malone, a biochemistry major at Kennesaw State University, credits a high school English essay assignment, a love for science, and her aunt's influence for her academic journey. Her essay led her to interview her aunt's classmate, Dr. Carl Saint-Louis, KSU's assistant professor of chemistry. Joining Saint-Louis' lab, Malone co-authored a published paper and participated in a National Science Foundation-sponsored Research Experience for Undergraduates. She presented her research at KSU's Symposium of Student Scholars and impressed scientists at conferences, securing two summer REU opportunities. Malone envisions a future in pharmaceuticals, driven by her passion for the positive impact of chemistry on the world. We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows. Call 770.874.3200 for more info. We'll be right back Break 2: GCPS – TOM WAGES – INGLES 7 STORY 4: Americans take this long to give up on their health resolutions A survey of 2,000 Americans who work out at least once a week revealed that the average active American would abandon their health-related resolutions about seven weeks into the new year. Of those surveyed, 29% confessed they would last less than a month on their resolutions. The research found that definitions of "unhealthy" foods varied, with 1 in 6 mistakenly believing all high-calorie foods are unhealthy. Some respondents associate healthy eating with avoiding carbs (24%) or sacrificing taste (18%). The study, conducted by OnePoll for egglife, highlights the diverse perspectives on health and nutrition and the challenges individuals face in making lifestyle changes. STORY 5: Will this be the year Georgia Republicans soften decade-long refusal of full Medicaid Expansion? Georgia House Speaker Jon Burns has indicated openness to exploring a "private option" for Medicaid expansion, a shift from the state's decade-long rejection of full expansion under the Affordable Care Act. Burns mentioned the possibility of expanding access to health care through a private option for lower-income working families, emphasizing a fiscally responsible approach to lower premiums. Georgia is one of 10 states that have not fully expanded Medicaid, and discussions around a potential private option represent a significant departure from previous Republican positions. Any proposal would likely involve changes to the state's certificate-of-need program. We'll be back in a moment Break 3: ESOG – DTL – JACKSON EMC STORY 6: Advocates concerned about proposed change to Coastal Georgia marsh protections Coastal Georgia regulators are considering changes to a rule designed to protect the state's marshes, a crucial buffer against storms and rising sea levels. The proposed change focuses on a 50-foot buffer measured from the "upland component" of a project with a Coastal Marshlands Protection Act (CMPA) permit. The amendment aims to exempt small projects from the upland component buffer requirement to address concerns about the burden on homeowners. Critics argue for a broader review, emphasizing the potential impact of bulkheads on the marsh and the need to reconsider development close to the marsh. Public comments on the proposal are accepted until January 19. STORY 7: Northeast Georgia Health System receives national recognition for simulation center The Northeast Georgia Health System's simulation center has received accreditation from the Society for Simulation in Healthcare, recognizing its commitment to providing a safe environment for healthcare professionals to practice skills in a simulated clinical setting. The accreditation ensures improved patient outcomes, reduced costs, and positions NGHS as a trusted institution for healthcare education. The Becker's Hospital Review also named NGHS among 34 hospitals and health systems with outstanding simulation and education programs, acknowledging its partnerships with high schools, colleges, EMS, and law enforcement agencies to train various healthcare professionals and students. We'll have final thoughts after this. Break 4: Henssler 60 Signoff – Thanks again for hanging out with us on today's Gwinnett Daily Post podcast.

Sherry Rosen had a feeling something bad would happen when she spotted five kids playing by the bank of Ellison Lake Wednesday evening. As she left for dinner around 5 p.m., Rosen called Kennesaw police after she saw one of the teenagers had walked onto the ice at the edge of the lake. When she got back home at 7 PM she saw dozens of fire trucks and police cars, and knew her worst fears had come true. Two 16-year-olds had fallen through the ice in the lake. While rescue personnel were able to successfully save one teen, the other died, Cobb Fire confirmed Thursday. According to Officer David Buchanan, a Kennesaw Police Department spokesperson, officers were dispatched to the scene around 5:09 p.m. Wednesday, arriving at approximately 5:20 p.m. Kennesaw police and Cobb County police were able to rescue one of the teens from the water before Cobb County Fire arrived, according to the fire department. But the second teen was not located and pulled from the water until approximately 6:50 p.m. Rescuers attempted to resuscitate on the bank of the lake before transporting him to Wellstar Kennestone Hospital, where he was pronounced dead. Four rescue personnel were treated for cold exposure, Cobb Fire said, and have been released from medical care. Surface water temperatures at Ellison Lake were recorded as low as 28 degrees, and rescuers were in the water for up to an hour and 20 minutes, according to Cobb Fire. One rescuer was taken to the hospital for hypothermia treatment, and another suffered abrasions during rescue efforts. Sheltering Grace Ministry, a nonprofit which provides services to pregnant mothers experiencing homelessness, is relocating its headquarters to Cobb County. The group announced this week it has sold its East Point location and will soon welcome clients to a new office on Franklin Gateway. An open house for the office is scheduled for next month. In operation for the last 16 years, Sheltering Grace Ministry says its aim is to provide shelter and support for homeless pregnant women, including life skills training to help women emerge from poverty. The organization is currently in the process of obtaining a new property where it can build a series of small homes to house expecting mothers, per a news release. Currently, Sheltering Grace Ministry has six staff and board members along with a team of volunteers. The open house at the new Marietta location will be held from 12 to 6 p.m. on January 16, at 1180 Franklin Gateway, Suite 100, near Delk Road. Most bills the General Assembly passes each year take effect on July 1. But a smattering of new laws enacted during the 2022 legislative session will kick in this Sunday, Jan. 1, including a bill making it easier for food trucks to do business and several new or expanded tax credits. The food truck legislation does away with a current requirement in Georgia law that food truck operators obtain a permit and inspection in every county where they do business. While the tax credit bills technically became effective last summer, they don't really become reality until New Year's Day, the beginning of the tax year. Three of the measures create new income tax credits. House Bill 424 will provide a tax credit to Georgia taxpayers who contribute to nonprofit organizations that help foster children about to age out of the foster care system. More than 700 young men and women age out of the system each year. Senate Bill 361, which was championed by Lieutenant Governor Geoff Duncan, will provide a dollar-for-dollar income tax credit on contributions to public safety initiatives in the taxpayer's community. Law enforcement agencies will be able to use the money for police officer salary supplements, to purchase or maintain department equipment and/or to establish or maintain a co-responder program. Senate Bill 87, the Jack Hill Veterans' Act, honors the late state Sen. Jack Hill of Reidsville, who died in 2020. It provides income tax credits in exchange for contributions to scholarships for service-disabled veterans through the Technical College System of Georgia Foundation. Another bill that will take effect on Sunday, Senate Bill 332, also known as the Inform Consumers Act, is aimed at preventing criminals from selling goods stolen from retail stores on any online marketing platform. It establishes financial and contact information requirements for high-volume sellers to online marketplaces and requires such platforms to establish an option for consumers to report suspicious activity. Pebblebrook High School's marching band is in New Orleans for one of college football's marquee matchups this weekend. The Mighty Marching Machine is one of the bands invited to play the Sugar Bowl contest between Alabama and Kansas State. Led by Director Eulas Kirtdoll, the band is performing in both the parade and game Saturday afternoon. The band reported on Facebook Thursday they'd loaded up their buses before dawn (call time was 4 a.m.) to make the trek down south. Later that day, they said they'd arrived safely in the Big Easy and were gearing up for Saturday's showcase after performing at Jackson Square downtown. After fundraising for months in the lead-up to the weekend, the band was helped along by a $15,000 donation from Atlanta's Witherite Law Group. This isn't the school's first rodeo on the national stage. In 2018, the band trekked to Chicago to perform in the city's Thanksgiving parade. The parade was yesterday, processing down Decatur Street along New Orleans' French Quarter and ending at Canal Street. The Sugar Bowl, meanwhile, will kick off at noon today and will be broadcasted on ESPN. A procession of cars snaked down Ben King Road in Kennesaw Wednesday night as dozens of families came to revel in holiday lights. With hundreds of thousands of lights twinkling in the darkness, Lights of Joy remains one of Cobb's best light shows — including a tunnel of lights for holiday photo-ops. Lights of Joy can be found at 1510 Ben King Road and has been open every night from 6 p.m. until 11 p.m., with free admission. Its final night will be January 1, New Year's Day. Amani Johnson scored 15 points to break the Kennesaw State Division I career scoring record as the Owls raced past Coastal Georgia 109-53 on Thursday at the KSU Convocation Center.

Everglades National Park was somewhat of an anomaly when it was authorized in Congress back in 1934. It marked the first time that federal land was set aside for its abundance of plant and animal species, rather than for its breathtaking scenic views. Today, Everglades National Park continues to face threats that make it the only US world heritage site officially considered to be under threat from challenges like energy production, surrounding urban growth, and nutrient pollution from agriculture. To dive into some of these issues, we're joined today by Dr. Chris Wilhelm, a history professor at the College of Coastal Georgia, and author of From Swamp to Wetlands, the Creation of Everglades National Park.

St. Simons is part of a cluster of barrier islands located off the southeastern Georgia coast. The original lighthouse on St. Simons was a 75-foot-tall tower that was built in 1810. When Confederate troops retreated from the area in 1861, they blew up the lighthouse so it wouldn't serve as an aid to navigation for Union warships. The 104-foot-tall brick tower that stands today was built between 1868 and 1872. St. Simons Light Station, Georgia. Photo by Jeremy D'Entremont. In 2004, ownership of the lighthouse was transferred to the Coastal Georgia Historical Society. Today, visitors can climb the lighthouse and visit the museum in the keeper's house to learn the fascinating history of Coastal Georgia through rare artifacts, historical photographs, and interactive exhibits. Sandy White is the education director for the Coastal Georgia Historical Society and its museums. Sandy White at the top of St. Simons Lighthouse. Photo by Jeremy D'Entremont. Tybee island is a barrier island and coastal community east of Savannah, Georgia, a short distance south of the border with South Carolina. An unlighted day beacon was established on Tybee Island in 1736, and there's been an active lighthouse since 1791. After the light's automation in 1987, the Tybee Island Historical Society spent 12 years working toward a restoration of the lighthouse tower. Tybee Lighthouse, Georgia. Photo by Jeremy D'Entremont.

Monday on Political Rewind: Scientists say there is much to learn about the dangers of the new omicron variant of the coronavirus. They urge a redoubled effort to vaccinate in states like Georgia, where hesitance at getting the shots continues. Meanwhile, residents in Brunswick and Glynn County go about their lives in aftermath of the Ahmaud Arbery murder trial. According to local organizers, there is a heightened awareness of solving social justice problems along coastal Georgia. Plus, U.S. Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene is unhappy with her new congressional district lines. So are a good many of her new constituents. Meanwhile, the Board of Regents refuses to rename buildings with ties to slavery and segregation on campuses across the state.

Friday on Political Rewind: A verdict in a trial from a small town in Georgia gripped the nation. Travis McMichael, Gregory McMichael and William "Roddie" Bryan were found guilty of murder charges on Wednesday. In February 2020, the three men chased Ahmaud Arbery, a 25-year-old Black man, in pickup trucks as he jogged in a Coastal Georgia neighborhood. Travis McMichael shot and killed Arbery during the chase. Bryan filmed the killing on his cellphone. Travis, the shooter, was found guilty on all nine counts. His father, Greg McMichael, was convicted on eight of the nine. Bryan was convicted on six counts. However, questions linger. This trial may never have happened, were it not for the shocking video that exposed the shooting and the failure of law enforcement to initially hold anyone accountable. Outside the courtroom following the verdict, the Rev. Al Sharpton told a crowd much work was left to be done. So what should we make of the outcome of the trial? Emory University professor Dr. Andra Gillespie said more consideration is needed of subtle examples of racism in society. "My concern in the grand scheme of things is when can we develop a consensus that racism manifests itself in ways that is not as obvious as a bunch of guys hunting a Black man as he's walking down the street," she said. "That's when I know that our society has made progress, and that's the thing that I'm still hopeful we can get there. Panelists: Margaret Coker — Editor-in-chief, The Current Dr. Andra Gillespie — Professor of political science and Director of the James Weldon Johnson Institute for the Study of Race and Difference at Emory University Patricia Murphy — Politics columnist, The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
