GDP Script/ Top Stories for Nov 29th    Publish Date:  Nov 28th    HENSSLER 15 From the Henssler Financial Studio Welcome to the Gwinnett Daily Post Podcast. Today is Wednesday, November 29th, and Happy heavenly Birthday to the great Vin Scully. ***HANK ARRON 715 CALL*** I'm Bruce Jenkins and here are your top stories presented by Peggy Slappy Properties. Lawrenceville resident trains to be a U.S. Navy logistic specialist Math Teacher Demetrius Nelson Kicks Off Campaign For Gwinnett School Board District 3 Seat Gwinnett Seeking Poll Officials For 2024 Election Cycle Plus, my conversation with Leah McGrath from Ingle Markets on dividing calories. 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: PEGGY SLAPPY   STORY 1: Lawrenceville resident trains to be a U.S. Navy logistic specialist Seaman Nhien Pham, a resident of Lawrenceville, is undergoing training as a logistic specialist at Naval Technical Training Center (NTTC) Meridian. Pham, a 2020 graduate of the University of North Georgia, joined the Navy for educational opportunities and to help her parents acquire U.S. citizenship. Her role involves providing supplies for ship stores and squadrons, playing an essential part in ship and squadron operations. Pham credits her success in the military to values learned in Lawrenceville, emphasizing respect, discipline, and the importance of staying on the right path. NTTC Meridian focuses on developing dedicated and motivated sailors and Marines.   STORY 2: Math Teacher Demetrius Nelson Kicks Off Campaign For Gwinnett School Board District 3 Seat Demetrius Nelson, a veteran math teacher, has officially launched his campaign for the Gwinnett County Board of Education's District 3 seat, currently held by Mary Kay Murphy. Nelson, with 15 years of teaching experience, emphasizes shared principles of sympathy, empathy, trust, fairness, and credibility in his candidacy. He joins at least three other candidates in the nonpartisan school board elections in May 2024. Nelson's campaign focuses on the "Four Cs": courage, communication, community, and character. He aims to improve the balance of respect among students, parents, teachers, school leaders, and community businesses for better school outcomes.     STORY 3: Gwinnett Seeking Poll Officials For 2024 Election Cycle Gwinnett County is organizing two hiring events on Dec. 4 and Dec. 18 to recruit poll officials for the 2024 elections cycle. The events aim to attract residents from diverse backgrounds, including those fluent in multiple languages. Attendees must complete an I-9 form and provide original identification documents for verification. With the 2024 elections cycle, including a presidential election, Gwinnett emphasizes the opportunity for residents to actively participate in the electoral process. Poll officials will receive a $390 stipend, further incentivizing community engagement. The events will take place in Lawrenceville and Dacula, offering residents a chance to contribute to democracy.   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: M.O.G. – TOM WAGES – DTL   STORY 4: Zoom calls and video meetings can lead to extreme fatigue: study A study by Graz University of Technology in Austria has provided neurophysiological evidence that Zoom calls cause "extreme fatigue" in workers and students, a phenomenon known as Zoom fatigue. The research showed that a 50-minute online lecture exhausted participants significantly more than an in-person lecture of the same duration. The findings highlight the impact of video conferencing on well-being, interpersonal relationships, and organizational communication. The study emphasizes the need for a comprehensive understanding of the psychological and physiological mechanisms behind video conference fatigue to develop effective coping strategies.   STORY 5: Exercise can improve brain function even after poor sleep: study A new study suggests that just 20 minutes of exercise can enhance brain function after a poor night's sleep. Mental performance improves with moderate exercise, regardless of sleep quality or oxygen levels. Chronic sleep deprivation affects nearly 40% of the population and is linked to various health issues. The research explored how sleep, oxygen, and exercise impact cognitive performance. Findings indicated that even in low-oxygen conditions or after sleep deprivation, a short cycling session improved cognitive tasks. This improvement might be due to various factors such as changes in brain-regulating hormones and psychophysiological aspects like cerebral blood flow, arousal, and motivation. The study challenges the notion that cognitive performance relies solely on specific brain areas, suggesting a more complex interaction across different brain regions.   We'll be back in a moment   Break 3:  GLOW LIGHT SHOW - ESOG - INGLES 7   STORY 6: LEAH MCGRATH And now here is my conversation with Leah McGrath from Ingles Markets on dividing calories.   STORY 7: LEAH MCGRATH ***LEAH MCGRATH INERVIEW***   We'll have final thoughts after this.   Break 4: JACKSON EMC – Henssler 60   Signoff – Thanks again for hanging out with us on today's Gwinnett Daily Post podcast.

Yogi Aaron shares his incredible journey from a young athlete plagued by tightness and injuries to becoming a pioneering yoga teacher who is leading a rebellion against harmful stretching. After decades of practicing yoga himself and worsening back and hip pain, he discovered that stretching was the culprit causing his issues. He retrained as a muscle activation specialist and developed his own yoga style called Ayama that focuses on stability, proper breathing, and activating rather than stretching muscles. He discusses how athletes and active people should prepare their bodies, his yoga retreats in Costa Rica, and his vision for bringing yoga back to its original purpose of manifesting your best life.www.yogiaaron.com

The job of an accounts payable specialist is ideal for someone who is detail oriented. While it is more complicated than it might seem at first glance, it is not difficult – if you follow instructions. It is the way many professionals start their accounting career and provides a good foundation for understanding how an organization operates. An accounts payable specialist is sometimes referred to as an invoice processor, an accounts payable associate or occasionally an accounts payable clerk. In the UK, the term purchase ledger is sometimes used in place of accounts payable. #accountspayable #accountspayablespecialist #invoiceprocessor The accounts payable role, accounting training, is often overlooked – to the detriment of the organization's bottom line.

In this information-packed episode, host Kurt Thoennessen and certified wildfire mitigation specialist, Mike Thayer provides invaluable insights on wildfire risks and prevention strategies. As wildfires continue to rise in severity across the Western U.S., homeowners must get prepared.Key topics discussed:The role of wind events in driving large, fast-moving wildfires that rapidly spreadHow extended drought and historical fire suppression have built up fuel loads, contributing to more severe firesWhy ember intrusion, not walls of flames, cause most home ignitions - defensible space is criticalNew standards like the zero to five foot “non-combustible zone” being mandated in CA by 2025 to protect homesThe wildland urban interface expansion in western states lacking CA's wildfire building codesThe impacts of insurance availability and modeling on admitted/non-admitted marketsThe value of wildfire risk education for homeowners that explains the “why” behind mitigationsSpecific home hardening measures (ember-resistant vents, gutter guards, etc.) that make homes insurableAs Mike emphasizes, wildfire readiness education and prevention work must expand outside California to other wildfire-prone states. All homeowners with natural vegetation exposure should proactively mitigate now, before threats grow. Advanced preparation is key to saving homes and making them insurable.Resources:The ibhs website/standards that Mike mentions explains the "why" behind wildfire mitigation recommendations through videos and other content.  - https://ibhs.org/wildfireready/The ArcGIS product showing expansion of homes in the wildland urban interface, with percentage increases by state from 2007-2020.

MCALLEN, Texas - Educator Beatrize Valenzuela received one of the biggest cheers at South Texas College's 2nd Annual Apprenticeship Summit.The Region One Education Service Center STEM/CTE specialist received warm applause following her opening remarks during a panel discussion on partnerships and apprentice perspectives. STEM stands for Science, Technology, Education and Math. CTE stands for Career & Technical Education. “Hi, good morning everyone. My name is Beatrize Valenzuela and I was a teacher at La Joya ISD 19 years. This is my second year working with Region One. I have the honor of being STEM/CTE specialist for one of the GEAR UP grants called Pathways to the Future. “In my 19 years as an educator I worked in low socio-economic communities. I was in Sullivan City for ten years, and then I was in Pueblo De Palmas. So I worked with those students from low income communities. “I was in love with what I did. And those students have so much potential, but nobody was tapping into it because they were in rural areas. There were not a lot of teachers there that have a STEM background. "So, when my students started asking for that assistance and I didn't have it, I made it my personal goal to learn. I started learning about robotics, I started learning about coding, I started learning all about STEM, and I started taking it to those communities and, lo and behold, they started placing and winning at the state level. “You know, we started to see that passion ignited in those communities and that's when I said, Oh my gosh, we are not tapping into the talent and potential that we have out there.”After her remarks, the Rio Grande Guardian International News Service secured an exclusive interview with Valenzuela. In the interview she pointed out that a four-year college degree is not for every student. She said some students can make very good money by learning a trade. Indeed, she said she has a family member who did not do well in school but learned a trade and is now earning more than she is. Here is the interview:To read the new stories and watch the news videos of the Rio Grande Guardian International News Service go to www.riograndeguardian.com.

Betty and Conner Bowman have a lot in common when they marry.  Betty Bowman  graduates from the University of Kansas School of Pharmacy with a Pharmaceutical Doctorate. Her works as a hospital pharmacist while Connor Bowman gets his Internal Medicine Residency. Betty Bowman takes a position at the Mayo Clinic, so when she falls ill suddenly, the Mayo Clinic is the logical place for treatment.  It seems Betty Bowman is suffering from food poisoning, having gastrointestinal distress and dehydration. Her condition doesn't get any better.  She takes a turn for the worse, with heart problems, fluid buildup in her lungs and then part of her colon was removed, after doctors discover necrotic tissue. Bowman dies from organ failure. Then the Southeast Minnesota Medical Examiner's Office alerts the Rochester Police Department to the suspicious nature of Betty Bowman's death. The Medical Examiner's office had to halt a cremation order.   According to court records, the Medical Examiner's Office received a call from CGK- a female friend of the Bowman's who said Betty and Connor Bowman were having marital issues and were talking about divorce following infidelity and a deteriorating relationship. In the Criminal Complaint it is stated that Conner Bowman told the Medical Examiner's Office that his wife should be cremated immediately, arguing that Betty Bowman did not want to be a cadaver.  Connor Bowman also begin asking one of the medical examiner investigators if the toxicology analysis being completed would be more thorough than the analysis typically done at the hospital. Bowman wanted a list of what was specifically going to be tested for. Friends of Betty Bowman began reaching out to investigators. An adult female friend of Betty Bowman told  the Rochester Police Department that she had texted with Betty Bowman  and that Bowman told her she was sick.   The friend told the detective that Betty Bowman was normally a healthy person. Another friend said a text from Betty Bowman said she thought a smoothie she had the night before might have caused her illness. Detectives began looking at all options and found husband Connor Bowman had  accessed Betty Bowman's patient account using his hospital credentials. From there he was able to locate internet searches conducted by Connor Bowman, a  Poison Specialist.    Connor Bowman was researching COLCHICINE,  a drug used to treat gout.  What's more he was  searches for information in determining what a lethal dose would be,  by entering his wife's weight.  Joining Nancy Grace Today: Dale Carson - High Profile Criminal Defense Attorney (Jacksonville), Former FBI Agent, Former Police Officer (Miami-Dade County), Author: "Arrest-Proof Yourself”, DaleCarsonLaw.com, Twitter: @DaleCarsonLaw  Caryn L.

On Today's Show, https://thehotshotwakeup.substack.com/ I have on Doug Cote to discuss the record-breaking wildfire season in Canada. Doug has a long and extensive wildfire career, including smoke jumping in the Yukon, and now his career is focused on prescribed fire and aerial ignition work in the Northern Boreal forests and working with Indigenous communities to bolster burn programs. We discuss the wild year that Canada had and what that looked like from the ground. We cover the tactics used up North and the reality of leaving fires over a million acres unstaffed or with limited staffing. We cover the ever-growing cross-border resource sharing that took place with Hotshot crews and teams, and like myself, Doug sees this as an increasing trend. We also talk about the unprecedented line-of-duty deaths that took place this year in Canada and how they can learn and understand why these took place. A fascinating conversation.

Hester played eight of his 11 NFL seasons with the Chicago Bears and is known as the most prolific return specialist in league history, he holds NFL records with 19 kick-return touchdowns, 14 punt-return TDs and 20 return touchdowns, which includes punts, kickoffs, missed field goals, fumbles and interceptions. Growing up with turmoil and heartache as his father, who he never met until later in his childhood, battled an illness after being released from prison. In a difficult moment, Devin opens up sharing what the true cause of death was for his father after spending his life telling the world his dad passed away from cancer when in fact it wasn't. The release of burden is heavy and the guys offer a sounding board.

I stumbled across the amazing Connie Colfox on Horse & Country TV watching her use positive reinforcement to help top eventing riders with ‘problem' horse behaviours.   She was able to really impress these riders with how quickly she could change these talented horse's minds about something they were struggling with.    In the words of Connie: “We really want horses to feel comfortable in the world they live in. By giving them a broad grounding with positive reinforcement we build trust to take on the challenges we encounter together”.   I was particularly interested in what she said around the 23-minute mark of this episode, and I agree that what she mentions here is a huge part of horses performing beyond their natural capabilities - and conversely why sometimes performance drops despite better riding!   I found Connie to be extremely humble, despite her decades of horse experience and knowledge, and she shares a balanced view and open approach to horsemanship, forever observing and learning from the horse.    If you have a horse with some ‘problem' behaviours or you are a performance rider curious about how positive reinforcement could help your horse, you will love this episode with Connie!

 This one is short and sweet. Would you like to see the ISO Model play out in a common question I am asked? This question comes from my brother, who is starting his own solo cleaning company. He asked me this. "Ken, what would you do if a customer is only willing to hire you if you will clean for them on Fridays?" I answered him and then said. "Thanks for the podcast episode!"  I believe there is a sliding scale or spectrum with 2 extremes depicting the Supply-Demand Principle of Ecomonics well. On one side is a business owner who has no boundaries. They will work for whoever, whenever, doing whatever is needed to seal the deal on the sale. They want the money and they don't care what they have to do (as long as it's ethical and legal). Side note, there are others that don't even care about that. This represents absolutely unlimited supply. They can definitely clean for you regardless of the question. When supply is at a max, demand is at a minimum. This also yields a minimum price. That's economics. Let's go to the other side. There is the business owner who has so many boundaries that it's nearly impossible to get on their calendar. Customers may have to wait a month or longer. Is this possible? Yup, it was me in my first optimized solo cleaning business. In this extreme, demand is at a max and supply is minimized. The corresponding price is very high. There was a reason I walked you through that first. Let's add in the ISO Model.​The high-supply owner is the new guy with nothing but time and availability. Price isn't as important. Customers won't pay much as they don't perceive they are in much demand elsewhere. They just want to learn, improve, and build a reputation for quality. With this mindset, they won't be high-supply long.  They will get referred and be in greater demand. I have another term for this solo cleaner. I call them an Initializer!With this increased demand, they intentionally reduce the supply. How? They go from zero boundaries to a window that they conduct business through. Maybe they create business hours or niche down in what they clean. Maybe they select a specific zip code or geographic area. Maybe they decide to eliminate vacation rentals and post-construction. Maybe they have boundaries on the drama they will accept from clients around scheduling, payment, and terms. There are many maybes or boundaries. This cleaner is getting better and accumulating more specialized knowledge. As their demand increases, so do their prices. In supply/demand economics, they've reached the crossing point of the curve. It's called the Equilibrium Point or Market-Clearing Price where supply and demand are equal. At this point, you have a cleaning service and price that has just enough supply to match the demand in the market. You will be able to grow fast at this level! I have another term for this solo cleaner. I call them a Stabilizer!The solo cleaner is building a great reputation through referral, cleaning excellence, and community engagement. They are being perceived with more and more value. They are being viewed more as a Specialist and Expert. Their demand is increasing. They can now tighten their boundaries and window to the other extreme. They can pinch their supply so low that the demand hits the ceiling and so does price. Customers will fight to get you. They will wait months on your waiting list. They will pay whatever you charge. They will adhere to all of your boundaries. Why? You are the best and those that want the best will go for it. This creates optimal value and optimized price. I have another term for this solo cleaner. I call them an Optimizer!Read the rest of this article at the Smart Cleaning School website

Developments in the Bryan Kohberger murder trial have been moving through an Idaho court room. The dense motion calling for the Grand Jury indictment against the accused killer was denied by a judge. Cameras will be allowed inside the courtroom, and FBI Agents have entered the King Road home again, hoping to gain more information as the prosecution prepares for trial.  A 3D model of the home is being built.  Experts say this will help explain to the jury where evidence was found and why the placement of that evidence is important.   Latah County District Judge John Judge has also ordered the prosecution to provide more DNA information that has been requested by Kohberger's defense team, setting a  December 1st deadline.
