In April 2023, he fled from ICE agents in his truck. In July 2023, he set fire to his Norcross apartment to evade arrest, displacing 20-30 residents and injuring himself. Federal prosecutors highlighted his dangerous actions, which endangered law enforcement and the public. The case involved multiple agencies, emphasizing the commitment to holding individuals accountable for reckless and violent behavior. STORY 2: Gwinnettians denounce Trump policies during 'No Kings' protest This weekend, over 1,500 people gathered in Suwanee for a 'No Kings' protest against President Trump's policies. Organized by local volunteer Kevin Vazquez, the event aimed to highlight concerns over women's rights, immigration, and the administration's direction. Suwanee resident Maria King-Smart joined to advocate for democracy, declaring, 'History repeats itself, and I don’t want it to.' Protestors held signs like 'Defend Democracy' and 'No Kings Since 1776.' The peaceful demonstration contrasted with clashes at protests elsewhere. The event emphasized community unity, with Gwinnett County’s diverse voices calling for change. State Rep. Jasmine Clark labeled Trump a 'parasite' needing history lessons.

Struggling to stay dry amidst constant rain, they now wander the streets, battling trench foot and exhaustion. Denied stable shelter, the pair survives by collecting scrap metal, yet earn only enough for basics like food. Workman dreams of buying a vehicle to improve their situation, but obstacles remain. Local businesses, citing cleanliness and safety concerns, have pressured authorities to clear camps. Despite hardships, Workman warns, 'Anyone is one paycheck away from being here.' Their resilience remains unwavering. STORY 5: Piedmont Eastside Medical Center Opens Neurology Practice Piedmont Eastside Medical Center welcomed neurologists Dr. Ogonna Iwuora [Oh-GOH-nah Ee-WOR-ah] and Dr. Paula Lee to Piedmont Neurology at Eastside. Located on Tree Lane, the practice now offers advanced treatments for conditions like epilepsy, dementia, and headaches.

Dr. Lee brought over a decade of expertise, focusing on refractory epilepsy and therapies like RNS and VNS. She trained at Tufts Medical Center and Northwestern Memorial Hospital. Accepting new patients, the team provides personalized care options with modern, non-invasive techniques. Break: STORY 6: Summer school is a time to get ahead at Georgia Gwinnett College This summer, a record 5,300 students enrolled at Georgia Gwinnett College, proving summer isn’t just for vacations. Many are earning credits to graduate early, boosting GPAs, or exploring new subjects. Nursing student Phoenix Winbush says summer classes help her stay focused, earning top grades. IT major Isaiah Jones uses the term to explore history and psychology. With compressed five-week courses, students like Winbush emphasize the need for discipline. Financial aid is available for eligible students, but Assistant Director Jacqueline Garcia Mendez advises balancing workloads to stay on track. For some, like visiting student Sara Swope, GGC’s atmosphere and professors are a major draw.

MDJ Script/ Top Stories for August 27th   Publish Date:  August 27th    BREAK: From the BG AD Group Studio, Welcome to the Marietta Daily Journal Podcast.    Today is Tuesday, August 27th and Happy Birthday to ***08.27.24 – BIRTHDAY – PAUL REUBEN*** I'm Dan Radcliffe and here are the stories Cobb is talking about, presented by Credit Union of Georgia.  Commissioner Invokes 'Bloods and Crips' as Map Feud Rages Severe Weather Challenging Blood Supply Marietta Preservationist Florence Corley Remembered   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:  Commissioner Invokes 'Bloods and Crips' as Map Feud Rages In a heated Cobb County commission meeting, commissioners debated redistricting after a court ruling invalidated their "home rule" map and ordered elections based on a state legislature map. The debate revealed deep divisions, with accusations of political bias and distrust of the county attorney. Commissioner Jerica Richardson faces potential loss of her seat, but she would remain a "de facto" commissioner during any appeal. Republican commissioners argue for repealing the home rule resolution to comply with the law, while others worry this would delay the process. The meeting was marked by intense rhetoric, reflecting broader political tensions. STORY 2:     Blood Emergency: Severe Weather Challenging Blood Supply The American Red Cross is facing a national blood emergency exacerbated by recent severe weather, including Hurricane Debby, which has led to the cancellation of around 60 blood drives and a shortfall of approximately 1,500 blood products. In Georgia alone, over 450 blood drives have been canceled in the past decade, with 12 cancellations this year resulting in about 400 uncollected donations. To help alleviate the shortage, donors are encouraged to schedule appointments. Those who donate by August 31 will receive a $20 Amazon gift card, while those donating between September 1-15 will receive an exclusive Red Cross T-shirt. Blood drives are scheduled throughout September and October at various locations. STORY 3:  Marietta Preservationist Florence Corley Remembered Florence “Florrie” Corley, who passed away on August 18 at age 91, was a multifaceted Marietta educator and historian. She was a teacher, writer, Presbyterian elder, and co-founder of Cobb Landmarks. Born on January 6, 1933, in Augusta, Georgia, she dedicated her life to preserving and teaching history, from her academic achievements to her work with Cobb Landmarks, which she helped establish in 1974. She taught history at The Westminster Schools and Kennesaw State University and was active in numerous community and historical organizations. A memorial service will be held on August 28 at First Presbyterian Church of Marietta. She is survived by her children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren.     We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows.

Starting in January 2026, Cantrell will first serve as board chair elect in 2025. She is currently the 2024 vice chair of member and community programs for the chamber. Cantrell, a long-time chamber board member and taskforce participant, has been recognized for her leadership and commitment to the business community. Cobb Chamber President Sharon Mason praised Cantrell for her strategic vision and leadership. Cantrell, who also leads CDH Partners' education studio, was named Small Business of the Year by the chamber in 2023. STORY 5:  MHS Student Selected to Delta Community's Apprentice Program Marietta High School senior Ashauna Perry has been chosen for Delta Community Credit Union's High School Apprentice Program. She is one of 17 students selected from nine metro Atlanta districts for the 2024-2025 school year. The program, part of Georgia's Work-Based Learning initiative, allows students to work as part-time tellers at various credit union branches. Perry will apprentice at the Marietta branch on Dallas Highway. Since its start in 2006, the program has included 220 students, making Delta Community a leading employer in Georgia's work-based learning program. We'll be back in a moment    Break: INGLES 1 STORY 6:  Proposed Marietta Parking Deck Returns to City Council The Marietta City Council will discuss plans for a new parking deck near Marietta Square today. Mayor Steve Tumlin proposed the collaboration with the Downtown Marietta Development Authority (DMDA) for planning, financing, and constructing the deck, with a targeted start date of June 1, 2025. The deck aims to address parking shortages as downtown development increases. Tumlin suggests a revenue bond for financing, potentially implementing paid parking to support the project's costs. The proposed site is on Mill Street, with the design reflecting Marietta's historical aesthetic. Tumlin and DMDA Chairman Tom Browning will present the plan to the Economic and Community Development Committee. STORY 7:    One Killed in I-75 Collision with Freightliner Early Saturday morning, a fatal collision occurred on I-75 in Marietta. LaForest Williamson, 46, of Columbia, SC, was driving a Freightliner with two trailers southbound when a 2009 Nissan Altima, driven by Kejaunaye Rollins, 21, of Stone Mountain, collided with the rear of the second trailer. The impact caused the Nissan to spin, partially blocking multiple lanes. Passenger Anetrya Johnson, 28, of Jonesboro, was pronounced dead at Kennestone Hospital, while Rollins suffered serious injuries. Williamson was unharmed.

Before he set his sights on Mount Rushmore, sculptor Gutzon Borglum had a vision for a massive monument to the Confederacy. He figured that Stone Mountain, located just outside of Atlanta, would be the perfect spot for his magnum opus. The United Daughters of the Confederacy agreed. So did their BFFs, the KKK.

In this series, we're talking about something… pretty weird! It's the fact that, roughly 100 years ago, a handful of people thought it'd be a really good idea to carve four gigantic faces into the side of a mountain. But why did they do it? Whose idea was it?? And finally, they were so busy asking if they could… DID THEY EVEN THINK TO ASK IF THEY SHOULD??? In this episode, we take a look at the man who designed Mount Rushmore, Gutzon Borglum.

GDP Script/ Top Stories for June 14th  Publish Date:  June 14th               From the Ingles Studio Welcome to the Gwinnett Daily Post Podcast. Today is Friday, June 14th and Happy 62nd Birthday to entertainer Boy George. ***06.14.24 – BIRTHDAY – BOY GEORGE*** I'm Bruce Jenkins and here are your top stories presented by Gwinnett KIA Mall of Georgia. Gwinnett-native Quavo and Vice-President Kamala Harris will discuss gun violence at summit next week Gwinnett Bus Hijacker Took Gun Used in Incident from Another Passenger Composting Partnership in Gwinnett Schools Keeps Food Waste Out of Landfills Plus, The Stripers Report with IL pitcher of the week Allan Winans. 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-native Quavo, Vice-President Kamala Harris will discuss gun violence at summit next week On Tuesday, Quavo, of the rap group Migos, will join Vice-President Kamala Harris in Atlanta to discuss gun violence as part of the inaugural Rocket Foundation summit, commemorating what would have been his late uncle Takeoff's 30th birthday. Takeoff, whose real name was Kirshnik Khari Ball, was tragically killed in 2022 in Houston, Texas, with Quavo present during the incident. The Rocket Foundation, established in 2022, aims to honor Takeoff's memory and combat gun violence, emphasizing his innocence as a bystander in the shooting. The summit will also feature the distribution of $10,000 grants to 10 organizations working to end gun violence in metro Atlanta. STORY 2: Gwinnett Bus Hijacker Took Gun Used in Incident from Another Passenger Joseph Grier, a Stone Mountain man, faces numerous charges, including murder, after hijacking a Ride Gwinnett bus in Atlanta. He's charged with 32 crimes, including hijacking, assault, and kidnapping. Grier allegedly shot and killed passenger Earnest Byrd Jr. during the incident. Police report Grier disarmed a citizen on the bus, leading to the tragedy. The hijacking resulted in a chaotic police chase spanning multiple counties. Mental health issues may have played a role, as Grier claimed to have bipolar disorder. Authorities are investigating the incident, which unfolded after a reported fight on the bus. Grier has a history of criminal offenses, including prior arrests. The bus, part of Ride Gwinnett's commuter service, was intercepted by law enforcement, and Grier was apprehended. The investigation continues, with passengers providing crucial information. STORY 3: Composting Partnership in Gwinnett Schools Keeps Food Waste Out of Landfills Third-grader Maya Terrazas from Baggett Elementary School has been composting at home for a year, and recently, she joined the school's Compost Connectors group, which diverts food waste from lunches to make compost for gardens. The program, part of a partnership between the Food Well Alliance and local schools, educates students on sustainability. Baggett, along with other Gwinnett schools, saw over 2,700 pounds of food waste diverted to composting. Through hands-on involvement, students learn about science and environmental issues like pollution. The initiative extends beyond school, inspiring students like Georgia Molina to compost at home. It's a practical, educational approach to fostering eco-consciousness in young minds.   We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows. Call 770.874.3200 for more info. The Stripers Report is coming up next.   Break 2: TOM WAGES   ***THE STRIPER REPORT***   We'll be back in a moment   Break 3: INGLES 3   STORY 6: Persistence Is Key in Ridding Yourself of Fire Ants Dealing with fire ants can be a challenge according to Eric Marlowe. As his family found out when their toddler encountered them firsthand. While fire ants may prey on certain pests, they're generally unwelcome guests in our yards. Chemical treatments, like baits and pesticidal dusts, can be effective but require careful application and consideration of environmental impact. Frequent mowing can disrupt their colonies, encouraging relocation. Additionally, encouraging competition from other ant species may help control fire ant populations. Proper identification and persistence are key in managing these formidable pests, whose sting packs a serious punch. STORY 7: Ex-Cop Convicted of Kidnapping, Murdering Norcross Teen Former Doraville Police Officer Miles Bryant has been sentenced to life in prison without parole for the kidnapping and murder of 16-year-old Susana Morales from Norcross nearly two years ago. A jury found Bryant guilty of malice murder, felony murder, kidnapping, and false report of a crime charges, though he was acquitted of attempted rape. Morales' sister expressed gratitude for the verdict, acknowledging that nothing can bring Susana back. Judge Tamela Adkins imposed the life sentence, emphasizing the severity of Bryant's actions, especially given his former law enforcement role. Bryant apologized to Morales' family before sentencing. The investigation relied on evidence including cell phone data and the recovery of Bryant's handgun near Morales' remains. We'll have final thoughts after this.   Break 4: INGLES 4 Signoff – Thanks again for hanging out with us on today's Gwinnett Daily Post Podcast.

 GDP Script/ Top Stories for May 22nd         Publish Date:  May 22nd         From the Ingles Studio Welcome to the Gwinnett Daily Post Podcast. Today is Wednesday, May 22nd, and Happy 80th Birthday to pitcher Tommy John. ***05.22.24 – BIRTHDAY – TOMMY JOHN*** I'm Bruce Jenkins and here are your top stories presented by KIA Mall of Georgia. FBI Arrests Man Accused of Robbing Armored Truck in Snellville Two Gwinnett school board races head to runoffs Northeast Gwinnett Voters Approve Mulberry Cityhood Plus, my conversation with Leah McGrath from Ingles Markets on vitamin C. 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: FBI Arrests Man Accused of Robbing Armored Truck in Snellville Demarco Johnson, accused of robbing two armored trucks in Tucker and Snellville last spring, has been apprehended by the FBI in Atlanta after evading capture for over a year. The FBI issued a warrant for Johnson's arrest in August 2023, noting his ties to the Stone Mountain and Norcross areas. A reward of $10,000 from the FBI and an additional $5,000 from Loomis was offered for information leading to his capture. Johnson faces charges including Conspiracy to Commit Hobbs Act Robbery, Hobbs Act Robbery, and Possession of a Firearm During a Crime of Violence. STORY 2: Two Gwinnett school board races head to runoffs In Gwinnett's recent school board elections, incumbent Tarece Johnson-Morgan secured her position for another term. However, runoff elections will determine the winners for the other two contested seats. In District 1, vice-chairwoman Karen Watkins will face Rachel Stone after neither reached the 50% threshold. Watkins received 41.81% of the vote, Stone garnered 30.57%, and Leroy Ranel Jr. secured 27.62%. Similarly, the District 3 race will proceed to a runoff between Steve Gasper, who led with 36.11%, and Shana V. White, who received 21.33%. Other candidates, including Domonique Cooper, Yanin Cortes, and Anthony Mulkey, trailed behind. STORY 3: Northeast Gwinnett Voters Approve Mulberry Cityhood In northeast Gwinnett County, voters approved the creation of the city of Mulberry, making it the county's 17th city. The referendum passed with 56.96% in favor and 43.04% against. Mulberry, spanning 25.9 square miles, is projected to have an initial population of around 41,000, making it the county's second-largest city. Despite legal challenges questioning its formation, including concerns about taxation and services, the referendum proceeded. Mulberry was proposed in response to a development plan, and its establishment means it will provide planning, zoning, code enforcement, and stormwater management without property taxation. City council elections are scheduled for November.     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: Study warns nightmares may be early sign of potentially deadly diseases A recent study suggests that nightmares and hallucinations, termed ‘daymares,' could be early indicators of autoimmune diseases such as lupus. Researchers found that disrupted dream sleep and hallucinations often preceded lupus flare-ups. In interviews with patients and clinicians, vivid nightmares involving attacks or falling were reported as distressing. Many patients experienced reluctance to share their hallucinations, which were sometimes mistaken for psychiatric issues. Recognizing these symptoms as potential indicators of disease activity could lead to earlier intervention and improved patient care. The study underscores the importance of discussing mental health and neurological symptoms in autoimmune diseases like lupus. STORY 5: Over 80% of parents say spring hardest time to keep things clean A recent survey commissioned by Trane Residential reveals that one in five parents would sacrifice their yearly vacation to avoid spring cleaning, highlighting the challenges of keeping homes clean during the season. With 83% agreeing that spring is the most challenging time to maintain cleanliness, many parents find themselves sacrificing quality time with their children to clean. Moreover, 43% of children have expressed a desire for more time together while parents are occupied with cleaning tasks. The study emphasizes the impact of spring cleaning on the parent-child relationship and explores how it affects families with allergies and asthma. Notably, 94% of respondents reported experiencing allergies and/or asthma, prompting them to adopt practices to reduce allergens in their homes, such as frequent vacuuming and dusting. Additionally, the survey found that automatic repurchasing for cleaning supplies and HVAC filters can help parents manage household tasks more efficiently.

Since 2009, Hyperallergic has published tens of thousands of articles about art. But who are the writers behind these posts? And what drives them to write about art of all things?Many of the authors who have passed through our virtual hallways have gone on to do incredible things, including publishing books on topics that they first wrote about or more fully developed through articles in Hyperallergic. In 2022, we held an event called “From Blog to Book” at Brooklyn's pinkFrog cafe, where our Editor-in-Chief Hrag Vartanian asked three of our writers to tell us about the journeys that took them from 140-character tweets to 1,200-word posts to full manuscripts. Erin L. Thompson, who holds the title of America's only art crime professor, is the author of dozens of articles that brought looted artifacts from around the world to light. Her adventures have brought her from the Confederate monument etched into the side of Stone Mountain, Georgia, which she wrote about in Smashing Statues: The Rise and Fall of America's Public Monuments (2022), to a rededication ceremony of a repatriated object in Nepal.AX Mina, who wrote Memes to Movements: How the World's Most Viral Media Is Changing Social Protest and Power (2019), describes how they first explored the topic of memes in Hyperallergic — which they termed “the street art of the social web” before “meme” became the mainstream — and their function as a tool to circumvent internet censorship in China. And Michelle Young, author of Secret Brooklyn: An Unusual Guide (2023), tells us about her trajectory from working in fashion to playing in the band Kittens Ablaze to discovering so many hidden gems while aimlessly wandering the city she calls home that she founded the brilliant website Untapped New York. It was only in her time off reading World War 2 nonfiction that she found a new trail, which led her to uncover the stories of stolen Nazi loot. They'll reflect on finding focus by retreating to a mountaintop in China, unearthing the legacy of forgotten World War II heroes, and even seamlessly forging Picassos — which, as you'll hear in the show, is not nearly as hard as you'd think. The music in this episode is by Famous Cats and Cast Of Characters, courtesy of Soundstripe.—Subscribe to Hyperallergic NewslettersBecome a member

GDP Script/ Top Stories for Feb 23rd Publish Date:  Feb 22nd   From the Ingles Studio Welcome to the Gwinnett Daily Post Podcast. Today is Friday, February 23rd and Happy 81st Birthday to NFL HOF Fred Biletnikoff. ***02.23.24 – BIRTHDAY – FRED BILETNIKOFF*** I'm Keith Ippolito and here are your top stories presented by Tom Wages Funeral Home: Gwinnett Police Investigating Apparent Murder-Suicide; Toddler Found Safe Jackson EMC Foundation Grants $60K to Gwinnett County Service Agencies Georgia Gwinnett College Set to Host Preview Days 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: TOM WAGES   STORY 1: Gwinnett Police Investigating Apparent Murder-Suicide; Toddler Safe A tragic incident unfolded in Lawrenceville, Gwinnett County, where police are investigating a possible case of murder-suicide. The bodies of a husband and wife were discovered inside a home on Sterling Drive on Wednesday. Also found unharmed at the residence was a toddler, whose safety amidst the tragedy provides a glimmer of hope. The police responded to a welfare check at the property just after 11:30 a.m., prompted by a family member's concern when they could not reach the individuals inside the home. Upon arrival, officers found at least one person on the floor and called for immediate medical assistance. Unfortunately, both individuals were confirmed deceased. The investigation currently points towards a domestic-related incident, and the authorities are treating this as a potential murder-suicide. The Medical Examiner's Office will make the final determination on the cause and manner of death. STORY 2: Jackson EMC Foundation Grants $60K to Gwinnett County Service Agencies The Jackson EMC Foundation continues its community support by granting a total of $100,000 to several organizations.

Funded by the Operation Round Up program, these grants are part of over $20 million put back into local communities since 2005.

Comedian Ian Lara at Atlanta Comedy Theater Catch up-and-coming New York City comic Ian Lara at the Atlanta Comedy Theater, 4650 Jimmy Carter Blvd., Norcross, this Thursday and Friday. Lara made his late-night debut on the Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon and has garnered over 10 million views for his set on “Comedy Central Stand up Featuring”. STORY 6: Long COVID Linked to Inflammatory Protein, Study Finds Cambridge University researchers have found a potential link between Long COVID and high levels of the inflammatory protein interferon gamma. The groundbreaking study suggests that IFN-γ could serve as a biomarker for Long COVID fatigue, paving the way for improved diagnosis and treatment. The comprehensive study followed Long COVID patients for over two years. It discovered a persistent production of IFN-γ correlating with ongoing symptoms. This research is significant given the skepticism surrounding Long COVID, despite an estimated 1.9 million people in the UK suffering from it. The research identifies specific immune cells that produce IFN-γ and observes a decrease in symptoms as IFN-γ levels drop. While vaccinations may help clear the virus, effective therapies remain a necessity. The study also suggests that IFN-γ could help classify Long COVID subtypes, leading to more personalized treatments. Gaining a deeper understanding of Long COVID could equip us with vital knowledge for future pandemics. STORY 7: New Study: 4 in 10 Americans Know Someone Who Died of Drug Overdose A staggering four out of ten Americans know someone who has died from a drug overdose. This alarming statistic comes from a recent study by non-profit organization RAND.   The research found that 42.4% of participants knew at least one person who had overdosed, translating to an estimated 125 million American adults. Furthermore, one in three respondents stated that their lives were disrupted by the death.   "The experiences and needs of millions of survivors of an overdose loss largely have been overlooked," said Dr. Alison Athey, a behavioral scientist at RAND.   The study also revealed that exposure to overdose deaths was more common among women, married individuals, U.S.-born participants, and urban dwellers. Disturbingly, 13% of respondents reported significant life disruption due to an overdose death.   In 2022, over 109,000 people died from a drug overdose, bringing the total since 2000 to more than 1.1 million.   We'll have final thoughts after this.

Stone Mountain Park is Georgia's most popular attraction, and its centerpiece is a massive rock carving that depicts three Confederate leaders who fought a Civil War over the right to own slaves and lost. It's the largest Confederate monument in the entire world. The mere presence, let alone the popularity of Stone Mountain raises this question: If people can be oblivious or indifferent to something as big as that carving, then what about the rest of the nation that lives not only with monuments but with streets, bridges, buildings and schools named for the Confederacy? Confederate monuments have started coming down, but the struggle around what to do with Stone Mountain speaks to how difficult it can be to truly see and confront the stories being told all around us and tell the ones we need to hear.

Whitney Elkins-Hutten of PassiveInvesting.com interviews apartment investor Christopher Lento about the journey it took to close the 144-unit Ascend at Stone Mountain deal in Stone Mountain, GA. From overcoming unexpected challenges during due diligence to navigating the complexities of financing and market changes, Christopher shares valuable insights into the intricacies of this ambitious venture. Discover the strategic decisions, innovative solutions, and lessons learned in this episode. Join Christopher as he dives deep into the world of real estate investment.

The charges resulted from investigations revealing Hill's distribution of fentanyl and heroin in Athens. In a separate case, Brandon Ector, also known as "Big," was sentenced to 150 months in prison for possession with intent to distribute methamphetamine in Milledgeville. The investigations prevented nearly four kilograms of fentanyl from circulating in the communities. Sentencing is scheduled for March 21.

He has successfully resolved over 3,500 disputes in various areas. The award honors Chief Justice Harold G. Clarke's efforts in creating alternative dispute resolution processes during his tenure from 1990-1994. Croft was praised for being a trailblazer in ADR for nearly four decades. STORY 7: Lawrenceville adopts 2045 Comprehensive Plan update and Transportation Master Plan The Lawrenceville City Council adopted the city's 2045 Comprehensive Plan Update and Transportation Master Plan at a public hearing on Dec. 13. This plan is a revision of the 2040 Comprehensive Plan adopted in 2018, outlining the city's long-term, sustainable growth pattern framework. Developed through public engagement and steering committee involvement, the plan addresses demographics, land use, transportation, economic development, housing, broadband access, and quality of life. The comprehensive plan, subject to review by the Atlanta Regional Commission and the Georgia Department of Community Affairs, aims to guide Lawrenceville's strategic growth and development through 2045. Implementation will focus on enhancing quality of life and supporting local businesses. We'll have final thoughts after this.

"I highly recommend What Makes You Come Alive to churches, religious and educational institutions, and spiritual seekers everywhere who are looking for an inward journey that finds its home in the world of nature, people, and things." — Walter Earl Fluker - Editor and Director of the Howard Thurman Papers Project Dr. Lerita Coleman Brown is a retreat leader, speaker, spiritual companion, and professor emerita of psychology at Agnes Scott College. Professor Brown frequently speaks on contemplative spirituality and Howard Thurman. She is the author of What Makes You Come Alive: A Spiritual Walk with Howard Thurman and When the Heart Speaks, Listen: Discovering Inner Wisdom. She has been featured in PBS documentaries about Howard Thurman and the Black church. She lives in Stone Mountain, Georgia. In our conversation, Professor Brown and I talk about the life, mysticism, and work of Howard Thurman, as well as his affinity to emperor penguins. We talk about the contemplative imagination and depth of Thurman, his trust of the Spirit's activity, and what he called “Working Papers”. Professor Brown has embodied the teachings of Howard Thurman and breathes them out in her own styling and language. More than once in this conversation, Professor Brown opened a window for me that I had painted shut. That is a rare gift.

High school sweethearts Derrick and Linda Yancey were the picture-perfect couple; respected members of their local Sheriff's department, two children, and living a happy life in an upscale neighborhood in Stone Mountain, Georgia.

Or was her killer someone close to home? This week's Court TV Podcast dives deeper into this case with an audio edition of our original series Someone They Knew with Tamron Hall. This episode is titled “Deadly D.I.Y.”To stream more Court TV originals, click here.
