MDJ Script/ Top Stories for June 25th Publish Date: June 25th Commercial: From the Ingles Studio, Welcome to the Marietta Daily Journal Podcast. Today is Tuesday, June 25th and Happy 77th Birthday to Fleetwood Mac drummer Mick Fleetwood. ***06.25.24 – BIRTHDAY – MICK FLEETWOOD*** I'm Dan Radcliffe and here are the stories Cobb is talking about, presented by Credit Union of Georgia. Cobb to Consider Pause on Licensing Health Spas Cobb Elections Board Finalizes Runoff Results Man Convicted for Cold Case Murder of Father Shot for $50 All of this and more is coming up on the Marietta Daily Journal Podcast, and if you are looking for community news, we encourage you to listen and subscribe! BREAK: CU of GA STORY 1: Cobb to Consider Pause on Licensing Health Spas Cobb County officials are proposing a six-month moratorium on licensing health spas due to concerns over code violations, prostitution, and human trafficking activities reported at local massage parlors. The county's Community Development Department has highlighted evasion of law enforcement by illicit spa establishments as a significant issue. The moratorium aims to halt new licenses while regulations are tightened to address these issues. Recent incidents, such as a sexual assault allegation at a massage parlor, have underscored the need for stricter oversight. Similar measures have been implemented in neighboring cities like Roswell to combat human trafficking. The county hopes to finalize new regulations by November to better manage this industry. STORY 2: Cobb Elections Board Finalizes Runoff Results The Cobb Board of Elections unanimously certified results from the June 18 runoff, confirming turnout of 2.49% with 5,750 votes cast out of 231,011 eligible voters across two races. Dr. Jaha Howard won the Democratic runoff for Cobb Board of Commissioners District 2 with 73.07% of the vote, advancing to face Republican Pamela Reardon in November. In the Democratic runoff for Congressional District 14, retired U.S. Army Brigadier Gen. Shawn Harris secured 69% of the vote, setting up a general election contest against incumbent U.S. Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene. STORY 3: Man Convicted for Cold Case Murder of Father Shot for $50 Dontavian Jones, 22, has been found guilty for the 2016 murder of Dewenzell Spence, 41, in Cobb County. This marks the second conviction in Spence's case, with Terrance Marshall previously sentenced to life without parole. Spence was abducted at gunpoint in Atlanta, forced to withdraw money, then fatally shot in Mableton. His body was discovered in a heavily decomposed state days later. Surveillance footage and facial recognition identified the perpetrators. Senior Assistant District Attorney Stephanie Green described the crime as horrifying and expressed hope for justice in sentencing. Jones faces sentencing on July 15. We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows. Call 770.799.6810 for more info. We'll be right back. Break: DRAKE STORY 4: Kennesaw Resident Carly Vogel Wins Miss Tennessee Title Carley Vogel, 23, from Kennesaw, was crowned Miss Tennessee 2024 at the East Tennessee State University Martin Center in Johnson City. She earned a $17,500 scholarship and will represent Tennessee at the Miss America Competition in January 2024 in Orlando, Florida. Vogel, a student at Middle Tennessee State University, impressed judges with her vocal performance of “Climb Every Mountain” from "The Sound of Music." Previously Miss Cobb County, she placed third runner-up in Miss Georgia 2022. Vogel joins Miss Georgia 2024 Lulu Louizaire in vying for the Miss America title. The Miss Cobb County pageant, promoting scholarship and community service, will take place on August 3 at the Jennie T. Anderson Theater, offering over $20,000 in scholarships and prizes. STORY 5: Could AI dramatically improve how quickly we diagnose cancer? British scientists have developed a prototype using machine learning to diagnose cancer with over 98% accuracy, identifying 13 types including breast, liver, lung, and prostate cancer. The technology analyzes DNA methylation patterns, which can indicate cancerous changes early on. These patterns, caused by environmental factors altering DNA bases, are crucial for distinguishing cancerous tissue from healthy samples. Published in Biology Methods & Protocols, the study's AI model is trained to interpret these patterns, potentially revolutionizing early cancer detection. Researchers emphasize the need for further diverse biopsy testing to refine the model for clinical use, aiming to enhance patient outcomes by enabling earlier treatment interventions. Break: INGLES 8 STORY 6: Two Injured in Motorcycle Wreck Near KSU Two people were seriously injured in a motorcycle crash near Kennesaw State University. The motorcycle, driven by an unidentified man and carrying 18-year-old Helen Mastranni of Canton, was traveling east on Chastain Road. A Lexus driven by 22-year-old Sierra Lee from Louisiana, traveling west, turned left onto Barrett Lakes Boulevard with a green arrow, colliding with the motorcycle that had entered the intersection on a red turn signal. The impact separated the riders from the bike. Both were hospitalized with serious injuries at Wellstar Kennestone Hospital. Lee also sought medical attention for injuries. The crash is under investigation, and Cobb Police are seeking information from witnesses at 770-499-3987. STORY 7: Police: Smyrna Man Fatally Shot Female Roommate George Perry, 40, of Smyrna, has been arrested and charged with murder after fatally shooting his roommate, Davon McDaniel, early Friday morning. Perry called 911 himself to report the shooting at their apartment on Cumberland Glen Lane. He indicated he shot McDaniel in the chest but did not provide a reason and did not appear fearful during the call. Police found McDaniel suffering from a gunshot wound and attempted aid but he was pronounced dead at Wellstar Kennestone Hospital. Perry, who showed no injuries, was arrested and refused to speak without a lawyer present. He faces charges including possession of a firearm during a crime and is held without bond at the Cobb County Adult Detention Center.

Today's Georgia's primary runoff date, with a smattering of races dotting metro Atlanta and the state; but one Congressional runoff caught my attention - the one to determine who'll take on Marjorie Taylor Greene in GA-14. Having already spoken with Shawn Harris months ago, I caught up just recently with his runoff opponent, Clarence Blalock. Blalock, to the surprise of many, finished 128 votes ahead of the vastly more well-funded Harris in the May 21st primary, but didn't cross the needed 50% threshold to win the nomination outright. Since that surprise result, however, the two campaigns have sharpened attacks toward each other.
In this chapter, we discuss all things Anne of Green Gables including a trip report to Anne country on Prince Edward Island in Canada. We also revisit the Eyes and the Impossible with a review of a book signing with the author Dave Eggers and illustrator Shawn Harris. We also give you a warning to get ready to read and watch The Never Ending Story for our August episode to celebrate the movie turning 40.
On this week's episode of "Sights & Sounds," writer Mac Barnett and illustrator Shawn Harris give their arts and culture suggestions happening in the Bay Area.
Renard Spivey was the bailiff on the Emmy award winning court show Cristina's Court. Jonathan Schmitz was an unsuspecting guest on the Jenny Jones show.What do these two have in common?

4.2.2024 #RolandMartinUnfiltered: Black Miss. Teen Killed By Cop Cruiser, Fla. Abortion Vote, Menthol Ban Lawsuit, World Autism Day A black Mississippi family says their 17-year-old son died after being chased and run over by a police officer. The Family attorney, Ben Crump, will be here tonight to explain how the walk home for Kadarius Smith ended up in his death. Florida's Supreme Court will allow a 6-week abortion ban to take effect, for now, as it ruled voters can vote on a proposed state constitution amendment about abortion rights in November. Florida's Democratic Party Chair, Nikki Fried, is here to discuss how this issue will shape the state's election climate. Health groups file another lawsuit against the FDA over the Biden Administration delays banning Menthol products. The last two Tulsa Race Massacre survivors continue to fight for reparations at age 109. Today, they faced the Oklahoma Supreme Court, requesting that their claim be heard in a court of law. We'll chat with the retired army veteran and farmer running against that Georgia MAGA Marjorie Taylor Greene. You don't want to miss my conversation with Shawn Harris. And today is World Autism Awareness Day. Monique Pressley and a black candle maker will explain how purchasing a candle can light up the life of someone living with autism. #BlackStarNetwork partners:Fanbase

Expanding the Canon is an initiative from the Washington DC-based Theater J, which has commissioned seven racially and ethnically diverse Jewish writers to create new full-length plays. These plays will thematically and visually center diverse Jewish narratives in order to correct and broaden the historically limited portrayals of Jewishness on stages in the United States and around the world. Hayley Finn, Theater J's artistic director, and Zachariah Ezer, one of the seven playwrights that collectively form the Expanding the Canon cohort, join Dan and Lex for a conversation about their project's work to expand (or maybe upend?) notions of Jewish canon.Learn more about Shawn Harris's upcoming (un)course, called Dungeons & Dragons & Dreidels, by clicking here!Access full shownotes for this episode via this link.And if you're enjoying Judaism Unbound, please help us keep things going with a one-time or monthly tax-deductible donation.

Conversion to Judaism is a process dating back to roughly the 2nd century BCE, but even with this long history, mainstream Jewish institutions often fail to wholly welcome these individuals into their communities. In this conversation, Dan and Lex discuss attitudes towards conversion and explore the future of integrating the beauty and brilliance that people who convert bring to the Jewish community and beyond. This episode is the 10th and final episode in an ongoing mini-series exploring conversion to Judaism.Learn more about Shawn Harris's upcoming (un)course, called Dungeons & Dragons & Dreidels, by heading to www.judaismunbound.com/classes!Access full shownotes for this episode via this link.And if you're enjoying Judaism Unbound, please help us keep things going with a one-time or monthly tax-deductible donation.

Our book choices often relate back to current events—whether it's women's rights, LGBTQIA+ equality, BIPOC empowerment, climate change, etc. So, we decided to create Popping Off the Page, special spin-off episodes that highlight the people who are trying to make the world a better place.

The Moon Queen has been poisoned - by SOUP. And with few she can trust in her own court, she and First Cat will have to journey alone to find the antidote in time. If only Loz4000 were still with them… But the once-heroic toenail clipping robot is running from his own terrible tale, and now looking for new purpose and meaning in this vast universe, taking Loz4000 far away from his friends. Unbeknownst to our trio, secret forces are working against them. With villainous cowboys about, high-speed chases, and pianos falling from the sky - can our iconic trio find their way back to one another and save the Moon Queen before it's too late? And who would want to poison her? Will they ever eat soup again? Is Captain Babybeard, the adorable baby pirate, in this one?

Environmentally friendly funerals are a growing trend. And while traditional wooden coffins come from trees that can take decades to grow and years to break down in the soil, this mushroom version biodegrades and delivers the remains to nature in barely a month and a half. With climate consciousness and special care of nature a focal point in ever more lives, Loop Biotech says it has the answer for those wanting a more natural burial. “From my perspective, it's all about like, hey, how can we give humanity a positive footprint? And I really want to collaborate with nature to do a lot of study and research towards nature and especially mushrooms. And I learned that they are the biggest recyclers on the planet. So I thought, hey, why can we not be part of the cycle of life? And then decided to grow a mushroom-based coffin,” says Bob Hendrikx, the 29-year-old founder of Loop Biotech. Moss can be draped within the coffins for burial ceremonies. And for those preferring cremation, there is also an urn they grow which can be buried to grow a tree. So when the urn is broken down, the ashes can help give life to the tree explains Hendrikx: “So this one is a beautiful combination of a regular urn in which you can put in the ashes or with a tree on top. So if you put this in the soil, this will biodegrade and enrich nature.” To put nature at the heart of such funerals, Loop Biotech is partnering with Nature Burials Netherlands which uses six special habitats where remains can be embedded in protected parks. Currently, Loop Biotech has a capacity to “grow” 500 coffins or urns a month, and is shipping across Europe. “We all have different cultures and different ways of wanting to be buried in the world. But I do think there's a lot of us, a huge percentage of us, that would like it differently. And it's been very old-school the same way for 50 or 100 years,” says Shawn Harris, a U.S. investor in Loop Biotech. This article was provided by The Associated Press.
Dave Eggers is a writer who does not want to be put in a box. His writing often defies easy cataloging or genre classification and he doesn't like to be specific about who his readers should be. His latest, THE EYES AND THE IMPOSSIBLE could be loosely described as an animal fable, but it isn't exactly that. And it could be described as a book that is good for younger readers, but it isn't exactly that either. Here is what we ARE certain of: It's wonderful, funny, engaging, original and full of joy! Eggers' words, his writing and his characters will stay with you long after you close the book. We also talk to his illustrator for EYES, the very talented and prolific Shawn Harris, whose inspirations and technique might surprise you.The Eyes and The Impossible by Dave Eggers A Heartbreaking Work of Staggering Genius by Dave Eggers Her Right Foot by Dave Eggers, illustrated by Shawn Harris What Can a Citizen Do?

The Matches played catchy pop-punk in the 2000s, a time when catchy pop-punk bands could be top 40 pop stars. They worked their asses off, were courted by major labels, but never reached pop stardom. Though the band did mean a lot to a ton of people. They built community around their music and made sincere connections with their fans. And they have ska roots. The band formed in 1997 as The Locals. Inspired by Rancid, they originally played a blend of punk rock and ska-punk. They also looked up to fellow east bay band Link 80. And in fact, even went to high school with Link 80's original guitarist Matt Bettinelli-Olpin. The Locals even played Link 80s final show! Today we talk to The Matches' lead singer/guitarist Shawn Harris about the bands roots and dig into several stories throughout the band's career. We discuss their years building a scene at East Bay venue iMusicast, where bands like My Chemical Romance, Zebrahead and RX Bandits would play on tour. We also talk about The Matches first major tour--which was with Reel Big Fish. Shawn tells us about two mind-blowing shows from that tour. We also talk about why Gilman would never book the band, what is was like working with some famous producers (Tim Armstrong, John Feldmann), how The Locals ended up touring in Bosnia while they were still in high school, and Shawn talks a bit about his new life as a children's book cartoonist, book author and Dave Eggers collaborator. Shawn even tells us about the time he sneaked a peak into Dave's CD collection to see what kind of music he listened to. And it was exactly the bands you think it was! Support the show

Some people call it "pop-punk". Some call it "punk-pop". But the kids in the early 2000s, they called it "awesome". Guitarist and vocalist Shawn Harris fronted iconic band The Matches through three classic albums, playing to throngs of adoring fans across three continents. But as his musical career began winding down, he found himself expressing his creative energies through visual arts and graphic design.
