The film unofficially parodies characters from the Batman comics, and the main character is a transgender woman based on the Joker, played by Drew. The film also features Scott Aukerman, Tim Heidecker, Maria Bamford, David Liebe Hart, Robert Wuhl, and Bob Odenkirk in supporting roles. We also review 'Nosferatu' a 2024 American gothic horror film written and directed by Robert Eggers. It is a remake of F. W.

The film stars Bill Skarsgård as the vampire Nosferatu and Nicholas Hoult and Lily-Rose Depp as the married Hutter couple, with Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Emma Corrin, Ralph Ineson, Simon McBurney, and Willem Dafoe in supporting roles. We also review and discuss 'Crash' a 1996 Canadian erotic thriller film written, produced and directed by David Cronenberg, based on J. G. Ballard's 1973 novel of the same name. Starring James Spader, Deborah Kara Unger, Elias Koteas, Holly Hunter and Rosanna Arquette, it follows a film producer who, after surviving a car crash, becomes involved with a group of symphorophiliacs who are aroused by car crashes and tries to rekindle his sexual relationship with his wife.

Break 1: 07.14.22 KIA MOG   STORY 1: Back Home: Will Witherspoon in Familiar Spot as Berkmar Coach Berkmar High School has welcomed back alumnus Will Witherspoon as the new head coach of its boys' basketball team. Witherspoon, a former point guard for Berkmar's first state championship team, was hired in late summer. Principal Durrant Williams emphasized the hire as a "family" decision, valuing Witherspoon's deep ties to the school. Witherspoon, who previously coached at Walnut Grove, is excited to return and aims to re-engage alumni and instill a winning culture in a young team. His staff includes former assistants and his brother, Wesley. The community is eager to support Witherspoon's vision for the program. STORY 2:   Gwinnett Educators Nominated As Hidden Heroes The Hidden Heroes nonprofit campaign, run by the Georgia Leadership Institute for School Improvement, recognizes impactful educators. In its fifth year, the campaign features four Gwinnett-based nominees: Cassie Bro, Yasirah Powers-Kouassi, Jamil Matthews, and Alexandra Schlechte. Leslie Hazle Bussey, CEO of the institute, highlights the campaign's role in honoring teachers' contributions and boosting gratitude for their work. Voting for the nominees is open until November 22, with winners announced on December 3, receiving cash prizes from sponsors like Georgia Power. More details and voting are available at the campaign's website. STORY 3:  Suited Seniors Initiative Provides High School Students With Professional Attire The Suited Seniors Initiative, a collaboration between the Gwinnett County Public Library and the Duluth-Norcross Kiwanis Club, provides professional attire to high school seniors in Duluth and Norcross for interviews and internships.

Incoming council members Tim Sullivan, Michael Coker, Kyle Shields, and Michael Rudnick won decisively, with Sullivan, Coker, and Rudnick securing over 70% of the votes in their respective districts.

STORY 5:  Charitable giving part of end-of-year tax decisions As 2024 ends, many consider donating to charities for tax benefits. Dr. Benjamin Akins from Georgia Gwinnett College explains that while most people use the standard IRS deduction, itemizers can benefit more by donating, especially if their income rises due to bonuses or required minimum distributions from retirement accounts. Donor-advised funds (DAFs) offer a flexible way to donate and claim deductions. Donating appreciated stocks or property can also provide tax advantages.

This initiative, announced by Superintendent Calvin Watts, follows a school board decision to invest $3 million in the technology from Evolv Technology. The decision comes in the wake of a fatal shooting at Apalachee High School, highlighting the urgent need for improved security measures. While these systems will initially be used at football games due to the high number of visitors and fewer controls, broader implementation across other athletic events and schools is still under consideration. The district aims to address safety concerns while continuing to focus on educational goals such as literacy proficiency.

The celebration includes music by the Soulful Harmonics Band and a processional led by the youth and family ministry. Throughout the weekend, the church will host a reception, silent auction, gala celebration, and potluck dinner. The church, which has focused on spiritual growth through programs like "The Quest," also emphasizes community service and healing ministries. The anniversary serves as a time to welcome new members and reconnect with lapsed ones, while continuing to promote inclusivity and spiritual practice.

Colt Gray is charged with felony murder for the shooting that killed four people, including two students and two teachers, and injured nine others. The shooting has deeply affected the Winder community, leading to vigils and calls for support. Investigations are ongoing, with federal and state officials involved. The tragedy has prompted a broader conversation about gun violence and school safety. STORY 2:  Apalachee High School Staff Used Crisis Badge System Also Used in Gwinnett Schools The Centegix CrisisAlert badge system, recently implemented in Barrow County Schools, was put to the test during the deadly shooting at Apalachee High School. The system, which Gwinnett County Public Schools began using last year, allows staff to alert administrators and law enforcement to emergencies by pressing a button on their badges. In Barrow County, the system helped quickly trigger a lockdown and alert responders, potentially limiting the tragedy. The shooting, which resulted in four deaths and nine injuries, highlighted the system's effectiveness in enhancing school safety and response.

Key stressors include lacking certain skills (43%) and difficulty staying updated on job requirements (75%). While 69% see their role as a long-term career opportunity and 70% would stay with their employer if offered a permanent position, many struggle with information overload. Effective training resources—whether in-person, online, or paper—are crucial for reducing mistakes and enhancing job satisfaction.

GDP Script/ Top Stories for June 28th Publish Date:  June 28th            From the Ingles Studio Welcome to the Gwinnett Daily Post Podcast. Today is Friday, June 28th and Happy 49th Birthday to actor Toby Maguire. ***06.28.24 – BIRTHDAY – TOBEY MACGUIRE*** I'm Bruce Jenkins and here are your top stories presented by Gwinnett KIA Mall of Georgia. Gwinnett police: People in moving van were not trafficking victims Ousted Gwinnett School Board Member Criticizes Runoff System Biden, Trump swap barbs in no-holds barred debate 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 police: People in moving van were not trafficking victims A viral video on social media this week showed people inside a Budget Rental moving van, sparking concerns of human trafficking as the original poster claimed they were tied up. The incident occurred on Interstate 85 north from midtown Atlanta until Gwinnett police intervened. However, Gwinnett County Police Sergeant Collin Flynn clarified that the individuals were not trafficking victims but were two families relocating with their belongings. They were healthy and not in distress, heading from Alabama to Maryland for new job opportunities. Despite no evidence of trafficking, police cited the driver for Georgia's seat belt law violation as the occupants were riding in the van without seat belts. The group was safely dropped off to find an alternate means to continue their journey to Maryland. STORY 2: Ousted Gwinnett School Board Member Criticizes Runoff System Karen Watkins, Vice Chairman of the Gwinnett County school board, has decided not to seek a recount after narrowly losing to Rachel Stone in last week's runoff election. Stone won by 17 votes, securing less than a 0.5% margin over Watkins. Although Watkins could have requested a recount under state law, she opted not to, criticizing Georgia's runoff election system instead. Watkins highlighted concerns that requiring candidates to surpass 50% of the vote in a runoff can suppress voter turnout and dilute the impact of voters. In the primary election, Watkins led with 41.8% of the vote, leading to the runoff with Stone who garnered 30.6%. The runoff saw significantly lower turnout compared to the primary, with only 3,719 votes cast. Watkins' campaign labeled the runoff system as voter suppression, emphasizing its costliness and potential to diminish voter participation. STORY 3: Biden, Trump swap barbs in no-holds barred debate In Atlanta, a 90-minute presidential debate between Joe Biden and Donald Trump, moderated by CNN with no live audience, aimed for civility with microphones turned off when not speaking. Despite this, both candidates traded accusations, blaming each other for inflation and trading personal attacks. Trump faced legal challenges, including indictments in Georgia and a recent New York conviction. He attributed these to Biden targeting him politically. Biden criticized Trump's inaction during the Capitol riot and highlighted Trump's legal troubles and personal scandals. Both called for the other's imprisonment, Trump for legal issues and Biden for immigration policies.   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: TOM WAGES   STORY 4: Lawrenceville names new dog park for former Police K-9 Lawrenceville has dedicated HYRO Park in memory of K9 Officer Hyro, who served the police department from 2016 until his passing in July 2023. The 0.41-acre urban dog park, set to open on August 9, honors Hyro's service in law enforcement, where he contributed to 233 missions, resulting in 87 arrests and the seizure of significant quantities of drugs. The park, under construction next to Lawrenceville Lawn, aims to unite the community through dog-friendly activities. City officials, including Hyro's handler Officer Sean O'Brien, unveiled a plaque during the dedication ceremony, emphasizing Hyro's legacy of "Love Loyalty Obedience."

Norcross Tucker Road in unincorporated Norcross. This operation followed a year-long investigation initiated after a traffic stop where the occupant revealed visiting a local "casino." Undercover officers confirmed illegal gambling activities at the establishment. Steven Bae Kim, the owner, and Seth Ryan Abernathy, an employee, were arrested for charges related to commercial gambling. Eight others were also arrested for gambling offenses.

He has revisited the genre in notable projects like "Hatfields and McCoys" and "Yellowstone," which reflect his fascination with the lawless drama of the frontier. Now, Costner returns to his passion with "Horizon: An American Saga," a four-film series he directs and stars in, chronicling the westward expansion during and after the Civil War. Costner emphasizes that each film in the series tells a complete story while advancing a larger narrative, avoiding cliffhangers.

INFLUENCER MARKETING IS A FORCE IN SHAPING CONSUMER BEHAVIOR AND DRIVING PURCHASE DECISIONS. THINK ABOUT IT—WHEN YOUR FAVORITE SOCIAL MEDIA PERSONALITY RAVES ABOUT A PRODUCT, DON'T YOU FEEL COMPELLED TO CHECK IT OUT? THAT'S THE POWER OF INFLUENCERS IN ACTION.THIS GOES BACK TO BRANDING AND THE POWER OF A PERSONAL BRAND IS JUST AS IMPORTANT AS A BUSINESS BRAND. THINK, MR. BEAST. AND HIS PRODUCTS AT WALMART.LOOKING TO TAP INTO A NEW AUDIENCE. PARTNERING WITH AN INFLUENCER WHO SHARES YOUR COMMITMENT NOT ONLY ENHANCES YOUR BRAND'S CREDIBILITY BUT ALSO OPENS DOORS TO A COMMUNITY OF LIKE-MINDED INDIVIDUALS EAGER TO EMBRACE YOUR PRODUCTS. BRANDS THAT DO THIS CREATE A FOUNDATION OF LOYAL FOLLOWERS WHO ARE SPREADING THEIR BRAND BECAUSE THEY KNOW IT, USE IT, AND LOVE IT.FINDING THE RIGHT FIT:BUT HOW DO YOU IDENTIFY INFLUENCERS WHO RESONATE WITH YOUR BRAND VALUES AND TARGET AUDIENCE? IT'S ALL ABOUT DOING YOUR HOMEWORK. DIVE DEEP INTO THEIR CONTENT, ENGAGEMENT RATES, AND AUDIENCE DEMOGRAPHICS TO ENSURE ALIGNMENT WITH YOUR BRAND ETHOS. YOU COULD REACH OUT TO THESE ACCOUNTS AND OFFER YOU SEND THEM A FREE PRODUCT AND IN RETURN FOR A REVIEW. WHEN I REACH OUT TO BRANDS, I WILL USUALLY SAY, IF YOU LOVE THE PRODUCT AND SHARE WHAT YOUR FEEDBACK, WE WOULD LOVE IF YOU COULD TAG US... THAT WAY THE CUSTOMER GIVES YOU THEIR TRUE FEELINGS. THIS IS A GOOD WAY TO GET TESTIMONIALS YOU CAN TURN AROUND AND SHARE! I USUALLY LOOK FOR INFLUENCERS WHO ARE USING A PUBLIC ACCOUNT, BECAUSE THEN THEIR RESPONSES WILL BE PUBLIC AND SHARABLE. ANOTHER OPTION WOULD BE USE YOUR CURRENT CLIENTS, MAYBE THERE'S A CLIENT WHO IS A PUBLIC ACCOUNT THAT IS ALREADY KNOWING AND USING YOUR PRODUCTS.THIS IS METHOD WILL COST YOUR IN THE FOREFRONT, BUT WE ARE HOPING THAT IT WILL HAVE A LONG TERM IMPACT THAT IS POSITIVE. REMEMBER, IF YOU ARE REACHING OUT TO BRANDS AND OFFERING TO WORK WITH THEM, YOU ARE GOING TO GET MORE NO'S THAN YES'S. KEEP THAT IN MIND, DON'T GET DISCOURAGED, PLUS SOME MIGHT NOT EVEN RESPOND!! SOME REASONS ARE, WHEN YOU ARE COLD CALLING, REACHING OUT TO AN INFLUENCER THAT YOU DON'T HAVE A CONNECTION WITH, IT FEELS SALESY... TRY TO INTERACT WITH THEIR CONTENT FIRST BEFORE YOU REACH OUT, YOU WANT TO BE ON THEIR RADAR, GIVE THEM WHAT THEY NEED, ENGAGEMNET, ETC BEFORE YOU ASK.. REMEMBER GIVE GIVE THEN ASK... THIS METHOD IS A TRADE OF GOODS. BY HARNESSING THE POWER OF INFLUENCERS, YOU CAN ELEVATE YOUR BRAND MESSAGE, EXPAND YOUR REACH, AND EMBARK ON A JOURNEY OF ENDLESS POSSIBILITIES. IF YOU HAVE A PRODUCT OR SERVICE THAT YOU WOULD LIKE REVIEWED I WOULD BE HAPPY TO WORK WITH YOU!

In November 2023, I released a report on this page that stated Earth was in rapid healing. Since then, we have faithfully chronicled the alignments and special events driving it. So many of you out there have been living, grounding, and experiencing these transitions. Some have been lovely, others not as much. We have reached an apex in that cycle. This is where things start moving quickly. This is also a time where Earth Miracles are happening. Humans have been connected to the sacred flows of the planet in all civilizations previous except for *some* of ours. This is a season where the veil of disconnection, the veil of disinterest, and the programming we all endured that told us that Earth was a 'thing' and not a being' is being erased. So too is it one where the Earth has HEALED tremendously and has stepped into new capacity. This is a VERY GOOD THING. This is also where people (who are ready) get to discover (or further discover) what an amazing friend, resource, and source of healing this planet can be. As I say in the report - GET OUT THERE to experience it. As we make our way first to Equinox (on March 19) and then into 2 Eclipses (the first March 25, the second April 8, the energy is starting to move QUICKLY. The Earth is here for you.  ***In the next report, I will speak about the eclipses.***This is an apex. This is also a time where Earth Miracles are happening.
