Break 1: ESOG



STORY 1:Gwinnett Place CID Reports Nearly $16 Billion Economic Impact

The Gwinnett Place Community Improvement District (CID) in Georgia has reported a substantial economic impact of $15.9 billion, showcasing its role as a significant economic driver in the region. Despite the Gwinnett Place CID occupying less than 1% of Gwinnett County's total land area and the local mall being mostly vacant, the economic impact increased by $2.5 billion in the last three years and $6.4 billion since 2017. The CID contributes 28,688 jobs, accounting for 7% of all jobs in Gwinnett County, with retail, accommodation and food services, and professional services sectors being key contributors. The area is set for major redevelopment, aiming for a "Global Villages"-style transformation.



STORY 2:NBC News names Gwinnett County one of seven key 'Decider' counties in 2024 presidential election

NBC News has identified Gwinnett County, Georgia, as one of seven "Decider" counties that will play a pivotal role in determining the outcome of the 2024 presidential election. As part of its "The Deciders" hyperlocal reporting effort, NBC will invest in covering demographic bellwether counties that played crucial roles in the 2020 and 2022 election cycles. With Gwinnett crossing the 1 million residents mark in 2023, it has become a politically significant county, having shifted from a Republican stronghold to being won by Democrats in recent elections. NBC News will deploy nearly three dozen journalists, including correspondent Blayne Alexander, to cover Gwinnett County's political dynamics leading up to the 2024 election.



STORY 3:Atlanta man charged with trafficking of disabled adult

Felipe Smith, 24, from Atlanta, has been indicted in Clayton County on charges related to trafficking an adult female with a developmental disability. The defendant allegedly transported and provided the victim for commercial sex acts at various hotels in metro Atlanta, benefiting financially from the sales. The case has a connection to Smith's association with the criminal street gang PDE. Investigated by the Georgia Bureau of Investigation’s Human Exploitation and Trafficking Unit, the Attorney General’s Human Trafficking and Gang Prosecution Units, the case represents an effort to combat human trafficking and gang activity in Georgia. Smith faces multiple charges, including trafficking and violations of the Street Gang Terrorism and Prevention Act.

Break 2: PEGGY SLAPPY – TOM WAGES



STORY 4: C-sections could prevent women from conceiving again: study

A new study reveals that women who have had a previous C-section are 10% less likely to conceive again. The research also found a reciprocal link, with women who took over a year to conceive being 21% more likely to deliver via C-section. Additionally, those facing conception difficulties were more prone to develop serious health problems such as high blood pressure and diabetes mellitus. While earlier studies linked reduced fertility after C-section to the surgical procedure, this study suggests that common underlying risk factors may contribute to both reduced fertility and C-section. Maternal stress is proposed as a plausible explanation connecting challenges in conceiving and an elevated risk of labor difficulties, leading to a higher likelihood of C-section.





STORY 5:UGA researcher explores ancient wheat genomes to improve bread wheat diversity

A two-year project, the Wheat Diversity Project, funded by the U.S. National Science Foundation, aims to sequence the genomes of 12 landrace varieties representing the global diversity of bread wheat. Led by the International Wheat Genome Sequencing Consortium, the initiative includes plant genomics expert Robin Buell from the University of Georgia. Landraces, traditional wheat varieties adapted to local conditions, carry genetic diversity with key traits for crop improvement. The project will update the reference genome for bread wheat research and develop a haplotype graph for genomics and breeding research. The information will be publicly accessible for wheat breeding advancements.
