Prosecutors revealed Burton stabbed her son 22 times before starting the fire in October 2023. She also pleaded guilty to charges including arson, aggravated assault, and tampering with evidence. The Gwinnett County District Attorney condemned Burton's actions, describing them as a senseless act of violence against her own child. Despite being pregnant and facing eviction, Burton premeditated the murder, purchasing flammable gel and practicing setting fires. During the plea hearing, she showed no remorse despite multiple opportunities to address the court. STORY 2:  Parkview Promotes Alum David Reynolds to Head Baseball Coach   David Reynolds, a Parkview High School graduate and longtime assistant coach, has been named the new head baseball coach following the resignation of Chan Brown. Reynolds played under the legendary Hugh Buchanan and later coached alongside Brown, contributing to six state championships and three national titles during his tenure as assistant. Reynolds, also a former football player at Parkview, brings deep roots and a commitment to community, having spent his entire life in Lilburn. His dedication to Parkview and its baseball program, combined with his coaching experience and community ties, made him the natural choice for the position. Reynolds aims not only to continue the program's winning tradition but also to mentor young men in character development. His appointment reflects a continuation of Parkview's strong athletic legacy under his leadership. STORY 3: Man Shot, Killed Near Gas Station On Jimmy Carter Blvd.   Gwinnett County police are investigating a fatal shooting outside a gas station on Jimmy Carter Blvd. A male victim was shot multiple times around 9 p.m., despite officers' attempts to save him.

Corey Collins, another North Gwinnett graduate and standout at Georgia, went to the New York Mets in the sixth round. Conrad Cason, from Greater Atlanta Christian and a top high-school prospect, was picked by the Boston Red Sox in the eighth round. Ramsey David, a Buford grad and pitcher at Southeastern University, was chosen by the Houston Astros in the tenth round. Their selections mark a milestone in their baseball careers, reflecting their talent and potential in professional baseball. STORY 5: Former Georgia Insurance Commissioner Sentenced To Prison Former Georgia Insurance Commissioner John Oxendine has been sentenced to three and a half years in prison for conspiring to commit healthcare fraud related to unnecessary lab testing. The scheme involved Oxendine and Dr. Jeffrey Gallups, who conspired to submit fraudulent insurance claims for tests like Pharmacogenetic and Molecular Genetic testing. These tests were medically unnecessary but were ordered to generate profits from insurers and patients, amounting to over $3 million in claims. Oxendine received kickbacks through his consulting business, which he used to make charitable contributions and pay legal fees, and he instructed others to lie to federal agents to cover up the fraud. STORY 6: Trump is ‘fine' and gunman dead after shooting at rally   Former President Donald Trump was rushed off stage during a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, after a shooter outside the event grounds caused panic with loud popping noises. Trump was seen grabbing his ear and later appeared with blood on his right ear, reportedly from an injury. He is described as "fine" and is undergoing evaluation at a local medical facility. The shooter is deceased, and there was one fatality and a critically injured person among bystanders. President Joe Biden condemned the violence, and law enforcement agencies including the Secret Service, FBI, and Pennsylvania State Police are investigating the incident. STORY 7: Parkview Baseball Coach Chan Brown Hired at Gainesville Longtime Parkview baseball head coach Chan Brown has accepted the head coaching position at Gainesville, marking a significant change after 20 successful seasons at Parkview. Brown, who took over from the legendary Hugh Buchanan, led Parkview to six state titles and three national championships. His decision to move was influenced by family considerations, including proximity to his son at the University of Georgia. Brown expressed gratitude to the Parkview community while Gainesville praised his leadership and commitment to developing both players and character. The move comes as Parkview faces its first coaching change in nearly 50 years, highlighting the end of an era for the program. We'll have final thoughts after this.   Break 4: INGLES 6 Signoff – Thanks again for hanging out with us on today's Gwinnett Daily Post Podcast.

The research scrutinizes the nutrient dynamics from wild fish, utilized as feed, to the farmed salmon, revealing a significant nutrient depletion in the aquaculture process. According to the findings, wild fish used in salmon feed exhibit higher levels of crucial nutrients including calcium, iodine, iron, omega-3 fatty acids, vitamin B12, and vitamin A compared to the nutrient profile of farmed salmon fillets.   The study underscores the importance of diversifying our seafood consumption towards a broader range of wild fish species. This approach not only promises an enhanced intake of essential dietary nutrients but also aims to alleviate the pressure on overexploited fish stocks.

Introduction We all know what it's like to play games with other people. But did you know that more and more games every year give you the opportunity to play them by yourself? And we're not just talking solitaire here. We're talking multi-player games with a solo mode—as well as games that are designed to be played by only one person. They can be small games with boxes you can hide under a dinner roll, to epic sprawling experiences that you lay out on your table and leave there till Christmas. So what does it mean to play alone, and what lessons can we learn from the experience? This week we are thrilled to welcome Dr. Liz Davidson, from the Beyond Solitaire podcast, to discuss these questions—and more!—on Board Game Faith, the biweekly show exploring the intersection of spirituality, religion, and board games! Introducing Dr. Liz Davidson PhD from Yale University in Ancient Christianity in 2014 Has taught on the high school and college level in Latin, Greek, English, and Math Is currently a Latin teacher at Parkview High School in Atlanta, GA, where she lives Has a website, YouTube channel, and podcast, Beyond Solitaire What are the personal benefits to solo board gaming? * So much of board games, popularly understood, is their social aspect – competition, shared narratives and experiences, socializing with others. * What it means to play alone, in terms of learning to enjoy your own company. Should people practice spending time with themselves?  Historical Games * I have a historical background (Ph.D. in Ancient Christianity, to be precise). How does that inform my understanding of historical gaming? (Especially games on religious topics?) * What are some good historical games, and can history ever be represented in a game? Solo Gaming & Ethics Does solo board gaming open up a different range of ethical possibilities in play? Would you treat an automated opponent differently than a human one? Favorite Solo Games!

GDP Script/ Top Stories for Tuesday June 6th Publish Date: Monday June 5 From the Henssler Financial Studio Welcome to the Gwinnett Daily Post Podcast Today is Sunday June 4th , and happy 57th birthday to hockey star turned actor Cam Neely ***Neely****   I'm Bruce Jenkins and here are your top stories presented by Mall of Georgia Chrysler Dodge Jeep Peachtree Ridge student, flanked by lawmakers, renews calls for gun safety laws Greater Eastside Chamber of Commerce expanding to become a multi-county regional organization And Georgia Senate to revisit certificate of need law     Plus, we visit with Leah McGrath from Ingles markets about cutting back on sugar   All of this and more is coming up on the Gwinnett Daily Post podcast.    Commercial :  M.O.G.          Story 1. student   Tyler Lee, a student from Peachtree Ridge High School, held a press conference for the second consecutive year to address gun violence on National Gun Awareness Day. Flanked by state lawmakers, Gwinnett County officials, and community leaders, Lee called for new gun safety legislation and criticized politicians who supported laws like the permitless carry law. He emphasized the urgency of implementing common-sense gun laws to prevent further loss of life. Recent incidents of gun violence involving teenagers in the area highlighted the need for action. Lee plans to engage with lawmakers and local officials over the summer to discuss gun violence prevention. Officials at the press conference echoed his concerns and stressed the importance of protecting children and regulating firearms....get more on this story at gwinnettdailypost.com   STORY 2: chamber   The Greater Eastside Chamber of Commerce is expanding its reach to include three more counties, aiming to become a regional economic stimulator for small businesses. Originally serving Snellville, Grayson, and Loganville, the chamber will now include Lawrenceville, Dacula, and cities in DeKalb, Rockdale, and Newton counties. The expansion aims to support the growth of small businesses in these areas. The chamber is undergoing strategic changes, including new branding and a robust business training and development program. Partnerships with NCG Cinemas and the Georgia Swarm lacrosse team will provide digital marketing and vending opportunities for chamber members. The goal is to foster an inclusive and sustainable business economy in north Georgia by supporting both small and large businesses.     Story 3: c.o.n.   The Georgia state Senate is actively pursuing reform or repeal of the state's certificate of need law (CON), which governs hospitals and healthcare services. A newly created Senate study committee will begin meeting in June to explore ways to reform the law. Georgia's CON law requires applicants to demonstrate the need for new medical facilities or services in a community. The push for reform or abolition of CON came through bills introduced by Senate Republicans, but they did not pass in the House. Advocates argue that eliminating CON would improve access to healthcare, while opponents express concerns about the impact on rural communities and the concentration of hospitals in wealthier areas. The House is also expected to address the issue in the coming months.   we'll be right back:   Break 1:  Slappey- Tom Wages - then Obits   STORY 4: dance   Riley Brison, a Lilburn native and lifelong dancer, founded the Gwinnett Dance Project to provide professional dance opportunities after realizing the limited options available after college. The contemporary dance group, consisting of eight to ten dedicated dancers, focuses on modern and ballet techniques while incorporating elements of jazz funk, hip hop, and step dance. They hold auditions annually and prioritize community engagement, with two mainstage performances each year and additional events. The company also donates 10% of profits to nonprofit organizations, with a recent performance supporting mental and emotional health. The Gwinnett Dance Project is committed to outreach and has taught and performed for various community groups. More information can be found at gwinnettdanceproject.org.       Story 5: treatments   New research suggests that personalized treatments for psoriasis, a painful skin condition, may be on the horizon. Scientists have discovered that the activity of specific cells and chemicals can distinguish between mild and severe cases of psoriasis. This finding could lead to the development of more effective targeted drugs. Psoriasis, which affects millions of people in the US, occurs when the skin replaces itself too quickly. The study identified key regulators of inflammation, such as fibroblasts and macrophages, which were more common in severe cases. Understanding these molecular causes could help design personalized therapeutic approaches and shed light on related disorders like arthritis and cardiovascular disease.       Story 6: houck   Colin Houck, a two-sport standout from Parkview High School in Gwinnett, has been named the 2022-23 Gatorade Georgia Baseball Player of the Year. This marks the third consecutive year that a Gwinnett player has won the award. Houck, a senior shortstop, led his team to a state runner-up finish and posted impressive stats, including a .487 batting average, eight home runs, and 50 RBIs. He has also excelled academically with a 4.05 GPA. Houck is now a finalist for the Gatorade National Baseball Player of the Year award. He has committed to playing baseball at Mississippi State University but is projected to be an early-round pick in the MLB draft.   .……back in a moment   Commercial:  Lawrenceville -  Gen Expo - Ingles 7   Story 7: commits   Simeon Boulware, a rising senior at Dacula High School, has committed to the Vanderbilt University football program. Boulware, a 6-foot-5, 240-pound defensive lineman, is regarded as a three-star prospect. In his junior year, he earned several accolades, including being named a first-team all-county selection and a first-team all-state selection. He recorded impressive statistics with 46 tackles, including 10 for losses, nine sacks, 32 quarterback hurries, and five blocked kicks. Boulware's commitment adds to Vanderbilt's recruiting class as they look to strengthen their team for upcoming seasons.   Story 8: soccer   Remi Okunlola, a senior soccer player, had his interest in high school soccer sparked during the 2022 season when he watched his younger sister's games at Brookwood High School. As an Atlanta United Academy player, he hadn't previously played high school soccer, but he decided to join Brookwood for his senior year. The decision proved fruitful as Okunlola received multiple awards, including Class AAAAAAA Player of the Year, Daily Post Player of the Year, and Gwinnett Goal Club Class AAAAAAA Player of the Year. Despite not knowing what to expect, Okunlola aimed to have fun and ended up having a great season with the team. The Atlanta United Academy allowed him to participate in high school soccer for his senior year, and Brookwood's coach and teammates appreciated his contribution and humble attitude.   Back with final thoughts after this   Henssler 60 Thanks again for listening to today's Gwinnett Daily Post podcast.

Community improvement districts (CIDs) are an increasingly popular method of promoting economic growth in Atlanta, with 29 active CIDs currently and four more in formation. On today's All About Real Estate episode, Emory Morsberger, Executive Director of Lilburn CID discusses the various economic development plans to make Lilburn an even better place to live. He also explains the formation of CID's and provides proof that public-private partnerships can be crucial in areas such as economic development and education. Morsberger has been a real estate redeveloper for 35 years across metro Atlanta. He founded Avalon homes in 1991 and spearheaded the Highway 78 project to improve the declining conditions of the area. He was also heavily involved in the revitalization of downtown Lawrenceville, striping the Square's old buildings to their original brick and wood floors and transforming it into a bustling destination. Morsberger's impressive redevelopment continues with transformation projects such as Ponce City Market, Gateway 85 and several other projects across metro Atlanta. Lilburn CID was formed seven years ago and focuses on “the corridor between two presidents,” as Morsberger describes. The Lilburn CID works dramatically to improve and redevelop the six-mile corridor and is currently in the process of a $28 million road and interchange improvement program. A unique aspect to Lilburn is the three different sections, the south end features the majestic Atlanta mandir, the largest Hindu temple in the U.S., the north side is home to Plaza Las Americas, the largest Hispanic center in metro Atlanta, and the core center is the city of Lilburn, with new facilities and a top-notch school system. “Parkview High School is a great attraction to the area,” states Morsberger. “Families who work at Emory, on or near Clifton Road, have the advantage of an amazing school system and they're only a 20-minute ride from work.” Tune into the podcast with the link above to hear about the plans for a convenient shuttle system that will take Lilburn residents to Clifton Road! During the interview, Morsberger explains the importance of CIDs and exactly how they are formed. Unlike a chamber of commerce, a CID can help fund physical improvements to an area. CIDs generally focus on transportation, physical appearance and safety issues. They partner with city, county, and state agencies to help initiate projects like reconfiguring an intersection or installing sidewalks for pedestrians. In Lilburn, the main focus is road improvements, landscape improvement and economic development. “The idea is that increasing curb appeal and eliminating blight, along with intersection improvements and better traffic light timing, will increase road capacity and make the area more attractive to quality, upscale businesses,” states Morsberger.

We're pleased to introduce the pilot episode of a new Arkansas Times interview podcast, "The Conversation" with host Matt Price talking to local folks of interest. Download. Here's Price's bio: Matt Price is a recovering politico now working in technology, business, and marketing searching for the meritocracy. "The Conversation" was borne out of the desire to talk to people who really care about what they are doing and are focused on making things better. In what he hopes will be a series of interviews with mayoral candidates, Price's first episode is a conversation with Frank Scott Jr., the Little Rock banker who is exploring a run for mayor. In a wide-ranging talk, Scott talks about growing up in Southwest Little Rock and his impressions of Little Rock beyond that area (he didn't venture into Hillcrest or the Heights until he was an adult, he says); his time at Parkview High School, where he spent time studying dance; his support for the controversial 30 Crossing proposal at a highwa
