Break 1: MOG



STORY 1:Tim Le Running To Be Gwinnett's First Vietnamese-American County Commissioner

Tung "Tim" Le, a prominent figure in Gwinnett County's Vietnamese community, has officially announced his candidacy for the county's Board of Commissioners, targeting the District 1 seat currently held by Commissioner Kirkland Carden. Le, if elected, would be the first Vietnamese-American to serve on the Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners. His campaign priorities include public safety, property tax reduction, support for small businesses, and strengthening the relationship between law enforcement and minority communities. Le, with a background in mechanical engineering and real estate, has been actively involved in various community organizations and boards. He emphasizes his diverse background as an asset for serving all Gwinnett residents.

STORY 2:Mary Kay Murphy Names Her Preferred Successor On Gwinnett School Board

Retiring Gwinnett County school board member Mary Kay Murphy has endorsed Yanin Cortes as the best choice to succeed her in the District 3 school board seat. Cortes, a former Shiloh High School teacher and co-founder of Mojitos Cuban American Bistro, stands out for her background as an educator, businesswoman, mother, and community leader. Murphy highlighted Cortes' commitment to fair compensation for teachers, positive work environments, and student-centered policies to improve reading scores and graduation rates. Cortes' experience as an immigrant also brings a valuable perspective to understanding challenges faced by students new to the U.S. in a county with over a quarter of residents born outside the U.S.



STORY 3:One of world’s deadliest spiders’ venom could help save heart attack victims

Australian scientists have identified a molecule in the venom of funnel-web spiders that could serve as a life-saving treatment for heart attacks. The drug candidate, called Hi1a, was found to prevent heart cells from dying due to a lack of oxygen in preclinical tests. Additionally, it may extend the lives of donor hearts used for organ transplants. The venom molecule, tested on beating human heart cells, blocks acid-sensing ion channels, preventing the death signal that typically occurs in heart cells during an attack. Researchers hope to conduct human clinical trials for stroke and heart disease in the next two to three years.

STORY 4:Common stomach bug found can raise the risk of Alzheimer’s: study

New research suggests that harboring the common stomach bacteria Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) may raise the risk of Alzheimer's disease by 11% in people aged 50 and older. The study analyzed data from over four million people in the UK between 1988 and 2019. H. pylori infection, which can cause indigestion, gastritis, ulcers, and stomach cancer, was linked to an increased risk of Alzheimer's. While the causes of Alzheimer's are complex, this study contributes to growing evidence about the potential role of infections in the disease's development. Researchers hope these findings will inform prevention strategies for Alzheimer's.

STORY 5:Braves Reliever, Providence Christian Grad Collin McHugh Announces Retirement

Right-handed pitcher Collin McHugh, a Providence Christian graduate and 2017 World Series champion with the Houston Astros, announced his retirement at the age of 36. McHugh, drafted by the New York Mets in 2008, reflected on his unexpected 11-season career in a social media post. Despite starting in A ball and throwing 90 mph, he played for five franchises, including the Mets. With a career record of 71-47, a 3.72 ERA, and 967 strikeouts in 346 games, McHugh expressed pride in his perseverance and the clubhouses he was part of. His final two seasons were with the Atlanta Braves, ending with a 7-3 record and a 3.38 ERA.



We’ll be back in a moment.
