GDP Script/ Top Stories for August 16th Publish Date: August 16th PRE-ROLL: MONSTER JAM From the BG AD Group Studio Welcome to the Gwinnett Daily Post Podcast. Today is Saturday, August 16th and Happy Birthday to Madonna I’m Peyton Spurlock and here are your top stories presented by Gwinnett KIA Mall of Georgia. Archer student donating to needy gets big surprise from Amazon Gwinnett school tax rate going down, but property owners will still owe more Author Leigh Dunlap to discuss debut book 'Bless Your Heart' at Duluth library Plus, the Stripers report with pitcher Dane Dunning 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: 07.14.22 KIA MOG STORY 1: Archer student donating to needy gets big surprise from Amazon Sometimes, it’s the smallest things that spark the biggest change. Nehemiah Hamilton, a senior at Archer High, used to dream of coding the next billion-dollar app. But after diving into community programs like Gwinnett’s Youth Commission and interning for Dacula’s mayor, his focus shifted. He didn’t just want to make millions—he wanted to help millions. So, he started “The Little Things,” a fundraiser to buy essentials low-income families often go without: detergent, toiletries, underwear, umbrellas. Especially umbrellas. Nehemiah set a modest goal—$500. Two weeks later, he’d raised over $2,000. Then, Amazon stepped in. After Gwinnett Chairwoman Nicole Love-Hendrickson shared his story on LinkedIn, Amazon’s Georgia community affairs lead, Terreta Rodgers, showed up with a truck. Literally. 3,600 items. Triple his donation. Nehemiah’s not stopping. He’s thinking about Morehouse, public service, maybe even running for office someday. But for now? He’s extending his fundraiser and calling on others to step up. STORY 2: Gwinnett school tax rate going down, but property owners will still owe more The Gwinnett County Board of Education voted Wednesday to lower the property tax rate by nearly half a mill—sounds like good news, right? Not so fast. Even with the drop to 20.15 mills, many property owners will still see higher tax bills, thanks to rising property values. Board Vice Chair Tarece Johnson-Morgan wasn’t thrilled, casting the lone “no” vote. Meanwhile, residents like Kay Vickers didn’t hold back. She slammed the board for firing two superintendents in four years (with pricey buyouts) and ignoring overcrowding at schools like Grayson High. The board’s decision followed three public hearings, but the tension? Far from over. STORY 3: Author Leigh Dunlap to discuss debut book 'Bless Your Heart' at Duluth library Mark your calendars: On Wednesday, Aug. 20, at 6:30 p.m., the Duluth Branch of the Gwinnett County Public Library will host Leigh Dunlap, author of the debut novel Bless Your Heart. The event, moderated by Iranian-American writer Samira Shakib-Bregeth, promises a lively discussion about family, reinvention, and the quirks of Southern hospitality—or lack thereof. Dunlap, best known for penning A Cinderella Story (yes, the one with Hilary Duff), brings her screenwriting chops to the page. She splits her time between South Carolina and South Kensington and has also written The Standoff and 16-Love. For details, visit gwinnettpl.org.

We’ll be right back Break 2: Ingles Markets 7 STRIPERS INTERVIEW Break 3: MONSTER JAM STORY 6: Three family members guilty of pandemic fraud A man from Pelham, Georgia, has been found guilty of wire fraud in a pandemic relief scam that roped in his family. Tyreek Brown, 28, now faces up to 30 years in prison, five years of supervised release, and a $1 million fine. Sentencing? TBD. His co-conspirators, Sherronica Jackson, 38, and Alan Brown, 52, both pleaded guilty and will be sentenced Nov. 12. Here’s the deal: Jackson snagged a $20,207 PPP loan in 2021, claiming a fake $97,000 income. She then helped Alan and Tyreek secure fraudulent loans for businesses that didn’t exist. Tyreek even sent her $3,000 after cashing in. STORY 7: Georgia unemployment rate down to 3.4% Georgia’s unemployment rate dipped to 3.4% last month, down just a tick from June’s 3.5%, according to the state Department of Labor. For context? That’s well below the national rate of 4.2%. But here’s the twist: while unemployment dropped, the state actually lost 500 jobs, leaving the total just shy of 5 million. Gains in health care (+2,800), manufacturing (+2,700), and construction (+2,100) couldn’t offset losses in food services (-4,500) and transportation (-1,400). Meanwhile, Georgia’s labor force grew slightly, with 732 more people joining in July.

Donating money should feel good. But too often, it leaves people wondering: Where did my money actually go? That uncertainty combined with high overheads and vague updates is exactly what led Simon “Siim” Konks and Erika Wagner to build DigiDonate, a blockchain-based fundraising platform designed to restore trust. In this episode of Business Built Freedom, we are not just talking about crypto or charity. We are diving into something bigger: how trust, technology, and transparency can shape the way we run our businesses. Read More

Read the article.The Bible is replete with commands regarding the intersection of money and ministry: “Freely give” (Matt 10:8), don't be “peddlers of God's Word” (2 Cor 2:17), “you cannot serve God and money” (Matt 6:24), etc. Clearly, ministry is a task fraught with danger; it is no wonder James warns that not many should become teachers (James 3:1).Given these concerns, how are those who advance the Word of God to Christians to honor the Lord financially? They must guard against greed in their own hearts, but they also must demonstrate their good intentions before man (2 Cor 8:21). The work of ministry requires resources, but to charge the hearers a fee may solicit accusations of using godliness as a means of gain (1 Tim 6:5).One supposed remedy is to donate the profits. If someone receives none—or only a small amount—of the revenue, then they have at least demonstrated some level of generosity. In theory, this evidences a sincere heart that only desires to honor God.sellingjesus.org | thedoreanprinciple.org | copy.church

Come to a Dehoarding Accountability Zoom Session: http://www.overcomecompulsivehoarding.co.uk/ticket Subscribe to the podcast: https://www.overcomecompulsivehoarding.co.uk/subscribe Podcast show notes, links and transcript: http://www.overcomecompulsivehoarding.co.uk/ Today I'm talking about why letting yourself make mistakes - like running out of everyday items or doing things imperfectly - can actually help if you're struggling with hoarding. From challenging perfectionism to rethinking the fear of scarcity, I'll share how embracing messiness can move us forward. Plus, I'll offer practical ideas for easing those fears and making progress, one small, imperfect step at a time. Announcement of new dates for Dehoarding Accountability Zoom Sessions. Aimed at connecting people who hoard for conversation and simultaneous decluttering. Details on how to get tickets and availability through several upcoming months. The Value of Making Mistakes Challenging the idea of perfection and fear of making mistakes. Proposing the benefits of allowing oneself to: Make more mistakes. Run out of things occasionally. Do things imperfectly or “half-arsed.” Identifying how fear of mistakes and perfectionism can keep people stuck in hoarding behaviours. Perfectionism and Fear of Scarcity Perfectionism: Fear of making the “wrong” decision leads to inaction or keeping everything. Uncertainty about the future and anxiety about discarding items. All-or-nothing thinking: If it can't be done perfectly, it's not worth starting. Personal reflection on the struggle with perfectionist tendencies. Fear of Scarcity: “Keep it just in case” mentality. Stemming from past experiences of poverty or deprivation. How personal history and upbringing foster scarcity-based behaviours. Recognition that such fears can be irrational and still hold significant power. How this fear leads to over-acquisition and reluctance to discard. Addressing Perfectionism and Scarcity (Mindset Shifts) Techniques to gently challenge perfectionism and scarcity fears. Reframing mistakes as learning opportunities rather than failures. Allowing for experimentation as a method of progress. Embracing Mistakes as a Path Forward Learning from mistakes as a source of growth and behaviour change. Normalising occasional regrets over discarding or not acquiring something. Comparing the cost of keeping everything versus the occasional “mistake.” Observing emotional responses to mistakes as a way to learn and build decision-making confidence. Encouragement to start with low-risk decisions and build up “dehoarding muscle” gradually. Allowing Things to be Done Imperfectly Encouragement to “do things badly” rather than waiting for perfect execution. “Done is better than perfect” as a motivating principle. The danger of all-or-nothing thinking leading to perpetual inaction. Practical examples of doing small tasks imperfectly: Tackling a small part of a larger problem (e.g., half a shelf). Donating a partial bag of items. Taking any step forward, even imperfect ones, counts as progress. Allowing Yourself to Run Out of Things Creative and resourceful solutions arise when supplies run low. Examples from daily life (cooking, art journalling) where scarcity breeds creativity. Differentiates between essential items and those where running out is an acceptable risk. Suggestions for consciously assessing what's truly necessary to keep in stock. Experimental Mindset: Treating Dehoarding as Data Collection Each decision - successful or not - provides valuable data for future choices. Building confidence and capability for bigger, more challenging decluttering decisions over time. Summary and Reinforcement of Key Points Allow for imperfection, mistakes, and occasional scarcity. Importance of starting with manageable steps and celebrating imperfect progress. “Done is better than perfect”—taking action, however small, is crucial.

June 24, 2025: Mathew Moss, SVP and CIO at New England Donor Services, joins Sarah to discuss the amazing stories and stubborn challenges in the world of organ donation. When hospitals process over 100,000 death referrals annually, how do cutting-edge systems determine which cases have life-saving potential? The conversation delves into the sobering reality that less than 50% of organ donors are registered, leading to hundreds of preventable deaths on waiting lists, while exploring how machine learning and real-time data streaming are revolutionizing a field where every minute counts. As Mathew shares the emotional weight of working with families on the worst day of their lives and the rush of innovating with technology that enables organs to be pumped outside the body for extended viability, listeners gain insight into a world where compassion meets precision engineering.

Donating blood is an important community service – one that’s desperately needed for patients, in life-threatening conditions. But up until now, those identifying as gay, bisexual or transgender had effectively been banned from donating. A lift on that ban will now significantly expand Australia’s donor pool at a time when blood - specifically plasma - is most needed by patients. But for many in the LGBTQ+ community, the changes are long overdue, and the ban has been a major source of stigma. Today, health reporter Kate Aubusson and Matthew Mottola, on why the ban has been lifted, and why it took so long.Subscribe to The Age & SMH: https://subscribe.smh.com.au/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Show Notes: In this special Pride Month episode of Fostering Conversations, host Amy Smith and co-host Tami Carson (Director of Community Volunteers at Utah Foster Care) sit down with Adrienne, a longtime foster and adoptive parent and leader of the FLY Cluster—Fostering LGBTQ Youth. Adrienne shares her personal experience raising five adopted children, two of whom identify as queer, and the powerful impact of simply providing a safe and affirming space. She speaks candidly about the fears some parents may face when a child comes out, and how acceptance, validation, and education can make all the difference in a child's well-being and future. Listeners will learn why LGBTQ-specific spaces—like the FLY Cluster—are vital. These monthly virtual meetups offer foster families across Utah the opportunity to connect, share lived experiences, and find support navigating the unique challenges LGBTQ youth may face. From casual get-togethers like root beer floats in the park to more structured peer support, these events are centered on building confidence, community, and connection. Looking for LGBTQ Resources? Adrienne highlights the comprehensive list available at utahfostercare.org, including statewide organizations like Encircle and the Utah Pride Center. Whether you're a foster parent, ally, or just someone with a heart for helping kids, there are many ways to get involved—even if fostering isn't an option for you. Donating event space, sponsoring youth activities, or simply taking the Safe Home Pledge are all meaningful ways to support LGBTQ youth in care. Tune in to hear heartwarming stories, practical tips, and how you can make a lasting impact in the lives of young people by showing up with love, empathy, and open arms.
