Fireworks cause blaze in Cobb County

Posted By: Larry Felton Johnson January 3, 2026 By Mark Woolsey Cobb County firefighters quickly extinguished a blaze they say was caused by spent fireworks early on New Year’s Day. Fire Lt. Stephen Bennett says a neighbor called 9-1-1 to report the blaze on Silver Leaf Drive at roughly 5 a.m. Thursday. Bennett says arriving crews found the blaze had spread up the roof line and was heading toward the home’s chimney. After they extinguished the exterior blaze, crews went inside and found some hot spots and damage near the chimney. “The homeowner stated they had been shooting fireworks during the night and placed the spent ones in a garbage can, and the garbage can is where the fire started,” Bennett told the Courier. No injuries were reported.

Trump administration agrees to drop anti-DEI criteria for stalled health research grants

by Jacob Fischler, Georgia Recorder, December 31, 2025 The Trump administration will review frozen grants to universities without using its controversial standards that discouraged gender, race and sexual orientation initiatives and vaccine research. In a settlement agreement filed in Massachusetts federal court Monday, the National Institutes of Health and a group of Democratic attorneys general who’d challenged the new criteria for grant funding said the NIH would consider grant applications made up to Sept. 29, 2025, without judging the efforts related to diversity, equity and inclusion, or DEI, or vaccines. The settlement provides an uncontested path for the agency while courts decide whether the administration can use its controversial analysis. The administration did not agree to permanently ditch its campaign to evaluate health research funding decisions based on schools’ DEI programs. NIH officials “will complete their consideration of the Applications in the ordinary course of NIH’s scientific review process, without applying the Challenged Directives,” the settlement said, adding that the agency would “evaluate each application individually and in good faith.” The settlement was signed by U.S. Department of Justice lawyers and the attorneys general of Massachusetts, California, Maryland, Washington, Arizona

A First Look at the True Story Inspired Horror Film ‘Marrow’ – HorrorFuel.com

Get ready, horror fans, because a killer new project is officially in the works! Genre legends Danielle Harris (a Halloween final girl) and Michael Ironside (the icon from Scanners and Total Recall) star in Marrow , a unique, true-crime-inspired horror film. The Plot: Fame at Any Cost The story stars Jessica Dawn Willis as Jamie Foster, a vlogger whose career is on the decline. To get back on top, she does something absolutely insane: she invites her stalker onto her show. The catch? She suspects this guy might actually be the serial killer who’s been picking off influencers. Her views skyrocket, but things get terrifying when she realizes the stalker might not even be human—and her life isn’t the only one on the line. The cast also includes a talented bunch: Matthew Tompkins, Ashley Spicer, and Phil Harrison. Real-Life Inspiration Director Mitch McLeod (who previously gave us Silhouette) isn’t just making this up—the script is based on a real stalking case that occurred in a small Texas town. “Marrow takes the true accounts of a stalking in a small town Texas in the early 2000s and places it within a modern lens, exploring the world of podcasts America’s oftentimes unsettling
