In Georgia if the driver is ticketed for stopping past the stop sign are license points issued?

Most towns, cities, etc. make have their own traffic laws. Although some state laws also apply, depending on the offense. In general, a non-moving violation does not add points on a license.

Violating a stop-sign by failure to make a full stop, or stopping beyond the required point(as when you spot the cop a bit too late) is not considered a NON-moving violation. Failure to stop when/where required is after all, continued MOVING, when & where you should have been stopped.

Most states belong to a multi-state pact, to notify the others of any offenses pled or found "guilty."

By the way, traffic LAWS or STATUTES are written at STATE-level, either by legislatures, or under state "administrative codes," written by State agencies with expertise (like state highway safety engineering departments). Even then, the state legislature has delegated its law-making authority to such agencies.

Towns can then pass ORDINANCES within the state law guidelines, such as setting speed limits on stretches of local roads, setting up stop-signs and other traffic-control devices (painted lines, traffic lights, signs, etc). Even then, some states require final state-approval of those local ordinances, in case they are poor engineering choices, or local "traps" for passers-through.

Facts on pompeii?

Pompeii was an ancient Roman city, buried by a volcanic eruption from Mount Vesuvius Volcano in 79 AD. In 1748, archaeologists uncovered the city.

The people in Pompeii did not have a chance to escape; the city had been quickly buried by volcanic ash. In 1748, archaeologists uncovered the city.

When archaeologists dug out the city, they found bread still in the ovens that had been baking that day. Archaeologists learned a great deal from the ruins of this ancient city because it had been so well preserved.

Mount Vesuvius is now dormant - that means that it hasn't erupted for a while, but it could still erupt. The last eruption was in 1944, and it is overdue for the next one. It is the only volcano on the European mainland that has erupted in the last 100 years.

Why was a flamingo so important to eat in Ancient Pompeii?

The ancient Romans liked to eat flamingo tongues, but other than that I don't think it was that important. When I visited Pompeii I didn't see a single reference or picture with flamingos in them. The Romans did like to put animals in their mosaics and murals and after they had gone to Africa there were hippos, lions, and other animals. In all of my travels in Italy and Sicily I don't remember seeing a single flamingo pictured.
