GDP Script/ Top Stories for February 13th Publish Date: February 13th From the BG AD Group Studio Welcome to the Gwinnett Daily Post Podcast. Today is Thursday, February 13th and Happy birthday to Peter Gabriel ***02.13.25 - BIRTHDAY – PETER GABRIEL*** I’m Keith Ippolito and here are your top stories presented by KIA Mall of Georgia. Regents approve first AI degree program State lifts poultry suspension after bird flu outbreak Atlanta teen snuck into Apalachee High during school day Plus, Leah McGrath from Ingles Markets on fast food 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: Regents approve first AI degree program The University System of Georgia has approved its first bachelor’s degree in applied artificial intelligence, launching this fall at Middle Georgia State University’s Warner Robins campus. The program aims to prepare students for careers in industries like health care, business, and cybersecurity, addressing Atlanta’s growing demand for tech talent. With AI playing a key role in areas like supply chain optimization and IT, the program expects to start with 65 students, growing to 168 by its fourth year. STORY 2: State lifts poultry suspension after bird flu outbreak Georgia’s Department of Agriculture has lifted its suspension on poultry activities after extensive testing found no new cases of avian influenza. The suspension, prompted by two bird flu cases in Elbert County last month, had halted poultry sales and events statewide, excluding retail meat and egg sales. Commissioner Tyler Harper emphasized the ongoing threat of bird flu to Georgia’s poultry industry but celebrated the return to normal operations. Over 4,500 tests on nearly 50,000 chickens revealed no further detections, though national outbreaks have contributed to record-high egg prices. STORY 3: Atlanta teen snuck into Apalachee High during school day An Atlanta teen, Herson Galindo, was arrested for trespassing and drug possession after sneaking into Apalachee High School on a bus with his girlfriend, a student there. Galindo, a Tri Cities High School student, was found hiding in hallways and bathrooms before being reported by another student. This incident follows a tragic mass shooting at the school five months ago, which left four dead, and a separate gun-related arrest last month. While Galindo was unarmed, he was found with a THC vape pen and faces multiple charges, including possession of drugs on school grounds.

We’ll be right back Break 2: RINGLING BROS_FINAL STORY 4: GOP-led Georgia Senate votes to ban state medical coverage of transgender procedures The Georgia Senate passed Senate Bill 39, banning state health insurance plans from covering gender-affirming care, including hormone therapy and sex reassignment surgery. The bill, passed along party lines, also prohibits state-owned healthcare facilities and physicians from providing such care. Democrats criticized the legislation as harmful, mean-spirited, and a distraction from real issues, warning it could hurt the economy and violate federal civil rights laws. Republicans, led by Sen. Blake Tillery, argued the bill reflects the will of most Georgians and ensures taxpayer dollars aren’t spent on these procedures. An amendment for mental health care exceptions was rejected. STORY 5: House Speaker Burns names interim chief of staff Former Gov. Nathan Deal’s chief of staff, Chris Riley, will temporarily serve as House Speaker Jon Burns’ chief of staff following an accident that hospitalized Terry England, the current chief of staff. Speaker Burns praised Riley’s experience and dedication, expressing confidence in his leadership during England’s recovery. Riley, who served as Deal’s chief of staff from 2011 to 2018, said he’s honored to step in and support Burns’ agenda. Burns assured colleagues that England is improving and will return to his role once recovered. Riley and his family run a small cattle farm in Hall County.

Georgia's election board on Friday approved new rules requiring poll workers to count the number of paper ballots by hand after voting is completed.  On today's episode of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution's Politically Georgia podcast, hosts Bill Nigut and Tia Mitchell are joined by Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger and Georgia state Senator Gloria Butler to discuss the rules changes being made by the MAGA-dominated state election board. Raffensperger believes the board may be acting outside its authority to pass rules that could create chaos at local polling sites on election night.   Then, after a long absence from Georgia, Donald Trump returns to the state to hold an event in Savannah on Tuesday.

Due to a medical condition requiring supervision, the Gwinnett Police Aviation Unit was called in.

The case showcased the police department's coordinated efforts and crisis training. STORY 2: ERROR: Computer Glitch Sends Tax Appeal Hearings Email to Many Gwinnettians On Memorial Day, many Gwinnett County homeowners received erroneous emails about participating in Board of Equalization appeal hearings due to a computer glitch. The emails, sent between 10:42 and 11:43 a.m., were caused by a coding error and affected "several thousand" homeowners. The emails, which included WebEx links for hearings, caused confusion and concerns about potential scams. Arefeen Chowdhury, a candidate for Gwinnett tax commissioner, demanded answers.

U.S. Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm and National Climate Advisor Ali Zaidi will celebrate this milestone, highlighting Plant Vogtle as the largest U.S. nuclear power plant and a major source of carbon-free electricity. The expansion, completed after 15 years and $36.8 billion, is expected to power one million homes and create high-quality jobs. However, a report by Georgia consumer groups criticizes the project for severe cost overruns and delays, estimating significant future rate hikes for Georgia Power customers. STORY 5: New study suggests statins may help prevent cancer A new study suggests that statins, commonly used to lower cholesterol, may also prevent cancer by blocking a key inflammatory protein. Published in Nature Communications, the research shows that statins can obstruct the TLR3/4 and TBK1-IRF3 pathways, which are involved in cancer development from chronic inflammation. Led by Professor Shawn Demehri of Massachusetts General Hospital, the study found that the statin pitavastatin effectively suppresses the IL-33 protein, reducing inflammation and preventing cancer in mice. Analysis of health records from over 200 million people indicated that pitavastatin use is linked to a significantly lower risk of chronic pancreatitis and pancreatic cancer. The findings suggest that statins may offer a safe and effective means to combat inflammation-related cancers.   We'll be back in a moment.   Break 3: INGLES 7   STORY 6: Atlanta Women's Chorus to Perform Saturday at Lawrenceville Arts Center The Atlanta Women's Chorus will present "Phoenix Rising," a multimedia performance commemorating American history with a hopeful message of inclusiveness, this Saturday at the Lawrenceville Arts Center.

Break 1: TOM WAGES   STORY 1: Police arrest Romanian organized crime member tied to cell phone thefts In a decisive crackdown on organized crime, authorities have apprehended Marius (Mar-ee-us) Vasile (Vah-see-leh), someone with ties to a Romanian criminal syndicate, for his involvement in a spate of cellphone thefts. This arrest comes in the wake of related incidents at an AT&T store in Duluth and a thwarted attempt in Hall County, Georgia, highlighting a broader pattern of criminal activity spanning metro Atlanta, Athens, South Georgia, and Crossville, Tennessee. Currently held in Hall County Jail facing numerous charges, Vasile's arrest marks a significant step forward in the investigation, while his accomplice, Maria Antonescu (Un-toh-ness-koo), remains at large. The pair are alleged to have utilized specialized equipment to extract cellphones from store displays, indicating a calculated approach to targeting telecommunications retailers. Supported by AT&T and a coalition of law enforcement bodies, the ongoing inquiry aims to thoroughly dismantle this criminal network. Officials call on the public to aid in this effort by providing any relevant information to Oakwood Police, reinforcing the commitment to safeguarding against the exploitation of technological vulnerabilities. STORY 2: Piedmont Eastside Celebrates First Cohort of McClure Health Sciences Interns Piedmont Eastside has partnered with McClure Health Sciences High School to launch an internship program for 10 chosen junior and senior students. This six-week program provides interns with comprehensive, hands-on experience in various hospital departments, including medical surgical floors, laboratories, emergency departments, and Health Information Management. The interns receive extensive training in critical medical procedures, supporting the clinical staff effectively. Exclusive to McClure students, this initiative aims to seamlessly integrate academic knowledge with practical skills in a genuine healthcare setting. Liz Jackson of Piedmont Eastside and Nicole Mosley of McClure have both highlighted the program's significant impact on preparing students for careers in healthcare.

This collaboration is dedicated to funding at least 15 educational scholarships for the families of fallen or disabled military members and first responders in Atlanta, encompassing a range from K-12 to postgraduate studies. To date, Folds of Honor has distributed over 4,000 scholarships totaling $18.5 million within Georgia.

A seventeen-year-old from Hall County, accused in a massive sextortion case involving multiple victims must face the charges as an adult. The judge in the case called the teenager “an extreme threat to the security of the public.” Cody Holum argued he would benefit from the counseling and rehabilitation services available to a juvenile defendant until he was 19 years old. A Hall County District Judge determined just a year's worth of services would not provide enough time to deal with the “alarming” behavior he's shown over several years.

Plus, a shocking revelation about what's happening in Disney lines that'll make you think twice before your next …step…at the park.

How do I go about seeing what in the world is wrong with my children?   My son and daughter are 23 and 25 and still live at home. Both should have moved out years ago as I am 58. They both refuse to work more than 35 hours per week. Why is this generation so lazy? Daughter is a nurse makes $11 an hr she takes home $1320 per month. I take $1100 off her card for rent.   I let her only keep $223 for food.   I do not supply my son or daughter with food, water, drinks or phones.

They should leave, and take all of their money with them.     Weird Story From Fox 5:   Guests at Disney theme parks are facing a messy situation while waiting in long lines.

Georgia has a long history, and towns tend to come and go.  Auraria in Lumpkin County was the thriving center of the Georgia gold rush for a time, now it's really just a memory.  White Sulphur Springs in Hall County used to be a tourist destination.  One of my favorite subjects to research so far has been the town of Cassville in Bartow County, which ended it's existence as a different town in a different county.  Names are important.
