But let’s be real—it’s spooky season, and there’s no better place to dive into the chills than Netherworld Haunted House in Stone Mountain. This year’s frights? “Monsters Attack!” and the double feature “Oblivion: Return of the Mangler, Featuring Grendel’s Feast.” Terrifying, right? But the real chaos? The Midway. Between haunts, you’ll find food, games, photo ops, and maybe even a monster or two lurking around. “The Midway is where the energy really explodes,” said co-founder Billy Messina. Think nachos, creepy drinks, escape rooms, and the House of Creeps Monster Museum. Tickets? Grab ’em early at fearworld.com. STORY 3: New principals named at Gwin Oaks Elementary and Jordan Middle School Two Gwinnett schools are getting new leaders, the district announced last week. At its Oct. 16 meeting, the Gwinnett County Board of Education approved Wendy C. McDonald as the new principal of Gwin Oaks Elementary, replacing Dr. Craig Barlow, who’s retiring. McDonald, currently an assistant principal at Trickum Middle, started her career in Louisiana before joining GCPS in 2005. She’s got degrees in political science, early childhood education, and literacy—all from UGA. Over at Jordan Middle, Alex “Hunter” McRae will take the reins from Melissa M. Miller, who’s moving to Bay Creek Middle. McRae, a GCPS veteran since 2000, has a background in music education and leadership. 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: Ingles Markets STORY 4: Georgia Department of Education recognizes five Gwinnett schools on 2025 Distinguished and Reward Schools list Big news for Gwinnett schools! Jackson Elementary, Mountain Park Elementary, Paul Duke STEM High, and Trip Elementary have been named 2025 Distinguished Schools by the Georgia Department of Education. What does that mean? They’re in the top 5% of Title I schools statewide, based on ELA and math scores. Pretty impressive, right? And there’s more—Arcado Elementary snagged the 2025 Title I Reward School honor, recognizing the top 5% of schools making the biggest improvements over two years. Each school gets a certificate, a flag, and a shot at a national award. STORY 5: Contested mayoral races top ballots in three cities This fall’s municipal elections are heating up, especially in three cities with contested mayoral races. While most ballots focus on city council seats, Loganville, Braselton, and Sugar Hill voters have some big decisions to make. In Loganville, it’s an open race—Mayor Skip Baliles is retiring. Voters will choose between City Councilman Branden Whitfield and local business owner John Soesbe to take the reins. Braselton’s Mayor Kurt Ward is up against two challengers: Michael Cronic, a former school board chair, and Brandon Reed, founder of ReeDesign MFG. Over in Sugar Hill, Mayor Brandon Hembree faces watchdog Amber Chambers in his first re-election bid. Meanwhile, Dacula, Grayson, and Norcross mayors are cruising to re-election unopposed. STORY 6: Lawrenceville City Council races come ahead of big annexation vote Lawrenceville’s city council races are in the spotlight this year—and not just because it’s the county seat. There’s also a big annexation vote looming in May that could add 19,000 new residents to the city. The leaders elected in November? They’ll be the ones managing that growth if it happens. Incumbents Austin Thompson (Post 3) and Marlene Taylor Crawford (Post 4) are both seeking re-election, but they’ve got challengers. Thompson faces former FOX 5 reporter Randy Travis, while Crawford is up against Gwinnett Sheriff’s Office Major Bryant Harris. Thompson, an engineer and small business consultant, is focused on economic growth, affordable housing, and making Lawrenceville a “city of the future.” He’s all-in on the annexation, saying it’ll bring character and opportunity to the city. Travis, meanwhile, is leaning on his decades of local visibility and says he’ll focus on traffic, taxes, and expanding the city’s tax base without burdening current residents. He’s also committed to explaining the annexation’s benefits to those in the proposed area. In the Post 4 race, Crawford, a school counselor and longtime community advocate, is pushing for equity across all neighborhoods—no more blight in one area and prosperity in another. She supports the annexation but stresses the need to expand services thoughtfully. Harris, with a deep background in law enforcement, is prioritizing safety, youth programs, and traffic solutions. He’s for the annexation too but says the city must ensure new residents get the same quality of services current ones enjoy. With so much at stake, these races are ones to watch. STORY 7: Gwinnett Counselor named Georgia School Counselor of the Year Crews Middle School’s Shayla Thompson just got some well-deserved applause—she’s been named Georgia School Counselor of the Year by the Georgia School Counselor Association. “I’m beyond grateful,” Thompson said. “This isn’t just about me—it’s about the incredible leaders, colleagues, and students who’ve supported me every step of the way. I couldn’t do this without them.” The surprise announcement came with flowers, a banner, and a visit from GSCA President Gabrielle Brundidge. Principal Cindy Moffett called Thompson’s work “inspiring,” adding, “She makes every student feel seen and valued.” Thompson, who’s also the 2025 GCPS Middle School Counselor of the Year, said, “Everything I do is for the students.” We’ll have closing comments after this Break 4: Ingles Markets Signoff – Thanks again for hanging out with us on today’s Gwinnett Daily Post Podcast.

主播：Sofia（中国）+ Maelle（法国） 音乐：Thinking About You01. A Farewell to a Physics Legend 一位物理巨匠的谢幕2025年10月18日，BBC（英国广播公司）报道了物理学家杨振宁逝世的消息：Chinese Nobel laureate and physicist Chen Ning Yang dies aged 103中国诺贝尔奖得主、物理学家杨振宁去世，享年103岁Laureate /ˈlɔ:riət/ n. 荣誉获得者，获奖者Physicist /ˈfɪzɪsɪst/ n. 物理学家That report marks the passing of a true titan (巨匠). 在物理学界，杨振宁教授是一个iconic figure。Iconic /aɪˈkɑ:nɪk/ adj. 标志性的、象征性的It means someone or something that is very famous and admired (令人钦佩的), representing a particular idea or era (时代). 他被广泛认为是可以和爱因斯坦和牛顿比肩的物理学家。“比肩”这个词可以有两种表达方式：1) In the same breath：两件事情一起说，一起做；在这里意思是“可以与……比肩”。Eg. He was often mentioned in the same breath as Newton and Einstein (牛顿和爱因斯坦). 2) The same caliber as...：与……齐名Eg. He is widely regarded as a physicist of the same caliber as Einstein and Newton.02. The Making of A Child Prodigy 天才少年的诞生让我们一起来了解一下，这位伟大科学家不平凡的一生里有哪些传奇色彩？我们都知道，杨振宁教授是一位杰出的物理学家（a distinguished physicist）。He demonstrated (展示) extraordinary talent (非凡的天赋) from a very young age.Distinguished /dɪˈstɪŋɡwɪʃt/ adj. 卓越的，杰出的它比excellent更正式庄重一些。��What kind of extraordinary signs did he demonstrate as a child?有一个流传很广的故事：杨振宁先生大概四岁的时候，他母亲开始教他认字，在短短一年多的时间里，他竟然就认识了三千多个汉字（three thousand Chinese characters）！更神奇的是他数学方面的天赋。他父亲的一位朋友，听说他是神童，就故意出了一道数学题想考考他。He solved it in what seemed like no time (一眨眼的功夫). 在场的大人们都惊呆了。It sounds like he was a true “child prodigy (天赋异禀的神童)”. Prodigy /ˈprɑdədʒi/ n. 天才“Child prodigy”就是指神童。后来在16岁——大多数孩子还在读高中的年纪，他直接考入了顶尖的National Southwestern Associated University（西南联合大学）。这也为他成为一代科学巨匠，埋下了最初的种子。中国当时正深处抗战和内战的动荡之中。It has been a time of great uncertainty (充满不确定性) during that period in China. 这对于一位有志于攀登科学巅峰的年轻人来说，前方的道路也充满了不确定性（uncertainty）。03. Journey Across the Ocean 赴美求学的黄金时代Where could a young scholar (年轻学者) find the environment to pursue pure science (追寻纯粹的科学研究)? 其实答案就在大洋彼岸——America。二战后的美国，不仅远离战火，而且政府和大学更是投入了空前的资源用于基础科学研究。那里汇聚了全球顶尖的头脑，拥有当时最先进的实验室和理论平台。That's why he went to the United States for his studies. For a talent like Chen Ning Yang, it was a golden opportunity (黄金机会) to pursue his scientific dreams.于是，就像当时许多有抱负的中国学者一样，杨振宁把握住了机会，踏上了赴美留学的旅程。He entered the top University of Chicago (芝加哥大学) to realize his scientific dream.Enrico Fermi (费米), the Nobel laureate (诺贝尔奖得主) who created the first nuclear reactor (核反应堆)，正是杨振宁在芝加哥的博士导师。他也被业界称为“原子弹之父”。而这也体现了美国当时无与伦比的（unparalleled）科研环境。It was like stepping into a whole new world of scientific possibilities. ��How did Chen Ning Yang's career progress (事业发展) in the United States?杨振宁的事业发展可以说是非常顺利。在费米以及后来另一位关键导师Edward Teller（泰勒）的亲自指导下，杨振宁打下了坚实的基础。Yang's move to the United States for education was clearly the correct path.而这也最终成功地吸引了另一位原子弹之父——奥本海默（Oppenheimer）的注意，并引领他进入了普林斯顿（Princeton）这座学术圣殿的大门。Oppenheimer (奥本海默) was so impressed by Yang's talent that he personally invited him to join Princeton (普林斯顿大学) in 1949. 对于任何物理学家来说，这都是一个“dreamy position（梦寐以求的职位）”。04. From Einstein to Eternity 与爱因斯坦的“跨时代对话”说到他在普林斯顿的时光，这里还有一个科学史上广为流传的佳话（a remarkable story）。当时年轻的杨振宁，竟然与科学巨匠爱因斯坦（Albert Einstein）有过直接的学术交流！It must have been such a “surreal” moment (难以置信的时刻) for a young physicist.Surreal /səˈriəl/ adj. 超现实的，难以置信的这个词用来形容当时杨振宁见到爱因斯坦的场景再合适不过了。他们的见面不是一次简单的问好（a quick hello），而是一次实质性的学术讨论。当时杨振宁和他的合作者正在研究“统计力学”，爱因斯坦对此很感兴趣，所以邀请他们到他的办公室深入交谈。What a historic dialogue (跨越时代的对话)! But even geniuses get nervous! 杨振宁后来坦诚地说，他当时非常紧张，而且爱因斯坦的德语口音很重，他其实没能完全听懂所有的讨论。彼时，年轻的杨振宁正站在那位定义了现代物理学（defined modern physics）的巨人的肩膀上（on the shoulders of the very giant），与之对话（engaged in a dialogue）。It's like a “passing of the torch (火炬的传递)”.这次对话更象征着理论物理学伟大思想的传承。而这位曾经与爱因斯坦对话的年轻人，最终也成为了书写历史的人（a figure who shaped history）。杨振宁的个人生活也伴随着他的学术生涯蒸蒸日上（academic growth）而开花结果（blossom）。他在普林斯顿与杜致礼女士重逢并步入婚姻。这位国民党著名将领杜聿明的长女，成为了他此后长达53年的人生伴侣。05. Revolutionary Contributions to Physics 颠覆物理界的科学贡献Chen Ning Yang was a theoretical physicist (理论物理学家). Why is he considered so great? Theoretical /ˌθiəˈretɪk(ə)l/ adj. 理论上的杨振宁在科学领域的伟大贡献之一就是“宇称不守恒定律”（Parity Nonconservation）。这个发现有多么颠覆呢？它直接引发了物理学界最根本的思维方式的改变，而这一理论也让他与李政道一起获得了诺贝尔奖（the Nobel Prize）。物理学界（physics community）普遍认为，杨振宁还有一个更伟大的贡献（greater contribution），叫做“杨-米尔斯理论”（Yang-Mills theory）。这也被认为是杨老最杰出的代表作。这也就是为什么国际物理学界有一个广泛的社会共识：那就是杨振宁是继牛顿和爱因斯坦之后（alongside Newton and Einstein），最伟大的物理学家之一。06. Rooting and Rebooting 归根与重启His personal journey later in life also captured the world's attention (吸引了全世界的注意). He chose to return to China in his old age. 他全职回到清华大学担任教授，这样一个决定也体现了我们中文里说的“落叶归根（leaf returning to the root）”。But it was more like rooting and rebooting (归根与重启). 他把他一生的智慧、经验和国际资源，都带回了祖国，为中国的科学事业“站台”和“引航”。所以杨老的回国绝非一次象征性的叶落归根（symbolic homecoming）。It was an active, purposeful decision to contribute (饱含深意的、为了奉献的主动抉择). 在某种意义上，他这是在solving his final equation（解答他人生中最后的方程式）——一道关乎祖国未来的方程式。BBC的公告宣告了一个时代的帷幕缓缓落下。但对华夏而言，他所留下的伟大传承，正悄然开启新的篇章。The BBC announcement marked the end of an era. But for China, his legacy is just the beginning. 杨振宁先生给我们留下了科学的瑰宝，更留下了关于家与国、个人与时代的最深沉的思考。

Distinguishing Humane Nationalism from Pathological Ideologies Guest Name: Daniel Mahoney Summary:Nationalism must be distinguished from pathological forms like "blood and soil" ideology, which champions ethnic rooting and the subordination of others. Moderate, humane national loyalty is tied to self-government and common humanity, rejecting the path that leads to "zoological wars." Critics often unfairly conflate nationalism with isolationism or imperialism. 1916 SWITZERLAND

In this episode of Molecule to Market, you'll go inside the outsourcing space of the global drug development sector with Lars Petersen, President & Chief Executive Officer at FUJIFILM Biotechnologies.   Your host, Raman Sehgal, discusses the pharmaceutical and biotechnology supply chain with Lars, covering: The difficult decision to leave Novo Nordisk and make the jump from one great company to another in Genentech/Roche. How leaving a Biogen site led him to step away from big pharma after 25 years and transition to the CDMO side. How Fujifilm's culture of innovation, technology, quality, and people runs through the Biotechnologies division — and why empowerment and culture should never be compromised. Why the duplication of its CDMO sites globally, all running on the same kojoX platform, is truly differentiating. Why he believes the need to standardise, scale, and globalise drug production in a consistent, efficient, and traceable way is key to the future of the supply chain. Molecule to Market is also sponsored by Bora Pharma (boracdmo.com) and Charles River (www.criver.com), and supported by Lead Candidate.    Lars Petersen, CEO of FUJIFILM Biotechnologies, is recognized as a visionary leader in the life science sector, commanding a global contract development and manufacturing organization (CDMO) with nearly 5,000 employees spread across Denmark, UK, USA, and Japan.    Distinguished for his strategic vision and a "people first" philosophy, Lars has profoundly impacted the company and the industry. His leadership journey saw him rise from Chief Operational Officer & Senior Vice President at the Danish site, where he established an empowering culture, to CEO, promoting transparency across all operations. Since his global leadership appointment in June 2023, Lars has been instrumental in cultural transformation, integrating a "people first" approach across FUJIFILM Biotechnologies' global facilities regardless of geographical differences.   Prior to his appointment as CEO, Lars was responsible for the Global Large Scale Commercial operation including full profit and loss accountability as well as the responsibility for over $6.2 Billion global expansions both in Hillerød, Denmark, and Holly Springs, North Carolina, USA.   Previously, Lars has held leadership positions with Biogen, Genentech/Roche, Novo Nordisk, Novozymes and NNE, and he has successfully executed projects in Europe, China and the US.   Lars holds a master's degree from the Technical University of Denmark.   Please subscribe, tell your industry colleagues and join us in celebrating and promoting the value and importance of the global life science outsourcing space.

This week we're rewinding to The Distinguished Gentleman (1992) for one of our 10th anniversary rewatch episodes, because what better way to celebrate a decade of podcasting than with Eddie Murphy running for Congress on a technicality? He plays Thomas Jefferson Johnson, a small-time con man who discovers the biggest scam of all might just be Washington, D.C. Armed with charm, hustle, and a dead Congressman's name, he cons his way into power—only to find out that in politics, the game is rigged and the stakes are sky-high. It's sharp satire, slick grifts, and Eddie at his smooth-talking best. Did you enjoy the episode? Don't forget to hit that subscribe button and join us for more retro movie discussions!

The Philippines became the centerpiece of General Douglas MacArthur's promise to return. The Army was to lead, but when setbacks on Leyte bogged down operations, Marine aviation and artillery were rushed in. Within hours after their arrival, they were flying convoy cover, striking Japanese shipping, and dueling enemy aircraft. Despite crude airfields and poor coordination under Fifth Air Force control, Marines flew over 260 missions in their first few weeks. By campaign's end, Marine air had won Distinguished and Presidential Unit Citations, reshaped close air support doctrine, and proven indispensable. What began as reinforcement became central to victory, cementing Marine aviation's legacy in modern warfare. ************* Visit HistoryoftheMarineCorps.com to subscribe to our newsletter, explore episode notes and images, and see our references.

Galatians 3:23-29 Rev. Rodney Henderson 

This Sunday, we conclude our 2025 Distinguished Pulpit Series by welcoming Rev. Aly Shahan to Mayflower. Aly is an ordained Deacon in the United Methodist Church with a passion for building inclusive, life-giving communities rooted in love, justice, and spiritual depth. A proud graduate of Oklahoma City University (B.A. in Religion) and Perkins School of Theology (M.A.C.M.), Aly brings both unconditional love and creative leadership to every role she serves. She currently serves as the Director of University-Church Relations and Religious Life at Oklahoma City University, where she leads campus ministry through the Wesley Center and helps bridge connections between the university and the wider church. Her ministry has included a decade in youth ministry, vital work in Emotional and Spiritual Care for Disaster Response with the Oklahoma Conference of Churches, impactful campus ministry as Associate Director of the Wesley Foundation at Oklahoma State University, and 15 years of leadership in camping ministry. Aly is a three-time delegate to both the General Conference and South Central Jurisdictional Conference of The United Methodist Church. In 2022, she was honored with the Francis E. Willard Award for her significant contributions to the advancement of women in ministry and leadership. Together, Aly and her husband, Rev. Dr. Adam Shahan, are raising two incredible children, Micah and Peyton, who bring joy, perspective, and lots of laughter into their lives. They are beyond grateful to serve God's church together. Aly is passionate about equipping the next generation of Christian leaders, preaching messages of hope, grace, and inclusion, and creating sacred spaces where all people feel seen, valued, and deeply loved by God exactly as they are.

This Sunday, we continue our 2025 Distinguished Pulpit Series by welcoming Rev. Keith Jossell to Mayflower. Keith is a transformative faith leader, community advocate, and strategist committed to justice, equity, and liberation. He serves as an associate pastor at Fifth Street Missionary Baptist Church in Oklahoma City and is the founding pastor of TheJusticeChurch, a God-centered house of prayer and faith-in-action ministry dedicated to advancing justice, healing, and hope in marginalized communities. Reverend Jossell served as the National Prayer Forum Director, Impact Strategist, and Spiritual Advisor for the Justice for Julius Coalition and Julius Darius Jones, offering pastoral care, public witness, and strategic leadership during one of the most high-profile clemency efforts in recent history. His contributions helped galvanize a national movement grounded in faith, advocacy, and collective action for justice. He is a proud ordained minister, called to serve both spiritually and practically. Reverend Jossell's ministry is rooted in a Bible-centered message of justice, identity transformation, and community empowerment. His voice rings out from the pulpit and through public platforms as he calls for equitable systemic solutions and works to dismantle the barriers that prevent people from living fully and freely. His educational journey includes a bachelor's degree in accounting from Loyola University New Orleans, an Executive MBA from the Kellogg School of Management at Northwestern University, and a Master of Arts in Social Justice from Phillips Theological Seminary—each one adding dimension to his calling to lead, liberate, and love through action. Within Fifth Street Missionary Baptist Church and The Justice Church, Reverend Jossell fosters spiritual depth and discipleship while equipping individuals to become agents of justice and change. He designs and implements innovative approaches to unlock human potential and catalyze community transformation, particularly for those often left behind by traditional systems. He is guided by an unshakeable belief in the resilience and collective power of people to reignite hope and pursue liberation. Reverend Jossell envisions a world where all can thrive—restored in spirit, rooted in justice, and living into the full expression of who God created them to be.

During a speech to the Spanish parliament earlier this year, the country's Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez claimed there's one thing that would guarantee lasting peace in Europe.His idea is the creation of a new army drawn from the 27 countries whose governments already work together as members of the European Union.The concept isn't a new one - and NATO already exists, the military alliance which includes EU member states and other European countries.But talk of a new military force is reappearing as the continent becomes more vulnerable to threats. Its ally the US is increasingly unreliable and unpredictable too.Other European leaders are also backing the ideaThis week we're asking - “Are we closer to a European army?”Contributors:Dick Zandee, Senior Research Fellow and Head of the Security and Defence Programme at the Clingendael InstituteDr Ulrike Franke, Senior Policy fellow at the European Council on Foreign RelationsOana Lungescu, Distinguished fellow with the Royal United Services Institute and former NATO spokespersonProf. Dr. Sven Biscop, Director of the Europe in the World Programme at Egmont.Presenter: Charmaine CozierProducer: Daniel RosneyResearcher: Maeve SchafferEditor: Tara McDermottTechnical Producer: Toby JamesProduction Coordinator - Tammy Snow(Image Credit: FREDERICK FLORIN/AFP via Getty Images)

Our wrap up for the 2025 Distinguished Gentleman's Ride in Cleveland, Ohio. 229 bikes left Skidmark, much fun, only 1 crash...but he was our oldest rider and he jumped up like a hero. Here's the Video: https://youtube.com/live/w-6gNcwJQQkSupport the showRemember folks...Ride Fast and Take Chances! check out our Youtube channel at https://www.youtube.com/c/ClevelandMoto

Mark Hawwa's compassionate vision became the Distinguished Gentleman's Ride, a global motorcycle event that raises awareness and vital funds for men's health, focusing on suicide prevention and prostate cancer research.  Growing up with immigrant parents who instilled values of service and compassion, Mark explains how these principles became the foundation for the DGR. What began as a way to challenge negative stereotypes about motorcyclists has evolved into something far more profound – a safe space where men can openly discuss health challenges that were once considered taboo. As Mark poignantly shares, "We're making it easier for guys to be comfortable in their own skin, more comfortable to talk about mental health, and more comfortable to reach out for support."The conversation takes us through the evolution of the movement, including the launch of the Distinguished Gentleman's Drive for classic car enthusiasts and the logistical challenges of coordinating events across diverse international jurisdictions. Mark's initial concerns about sustainability have proven unfounded as participation continues to grow stronger each year, demonstrating the power of bringing people together around shared passions while serving a greater good. His candid reflections reveal both the tremendous work behind the scenes and the unexpected ways the movement has touched lives worldwide. Whether you're a longtime participant or new to the DGR community, this episode provides profound insights into how motorcycles, style, and compassion are creating lasting change in men's health awareness globally.

Henry talks with distinguished pilot Woodrow “Woody” Fountain as they discuss apprehension people have about flying, air traffic controller problems, pilots aging out, upgrading technology and more.
