U.S. Senate 7 00:00:33,120 --> 00:00:38,760 approved the Equal Rights Amendment, which stated equality of rights under the law shall 8 00:00:38,760 --> 00:00:45,240 not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any state on account of sex, but it 9 00:00:45,240 --> 00:00:51,440 failed to be ratified by the requisite majority of 38 states before the deadline. 10 00:00:51,440 -->

groundbreaking study suggests the existence of a fourth eco-type of killer 70 00:06:00,100 --> 00:06:06,880 whale off the California and Oregon coasts, distinct from the known offshore, transients, 71 00:06:06,880 --> 00:06:09,340 and resident orcas. 72 00:06:09,340 --> 00:06:18,260 This potential new group, observed in 49 individuals across nine encounters from 1997 to 2021, 73 00:06:18,260 --> 00:06:24,900 exhibits unique physical traits, dietary habits, and hunting strategies. 74 00:06:24,900 --> 00:06:30,360 Researchers from the University of British Columbia aim to confirm this through DNA analysis 75 00:06:30,360 --> 00:06:33,100 and sound recordings. 76 00:06:33,100 --> 00:06:38,180 This discovery highlights the orca's diverse behaviors and the possibility of a new orca 77 00:06:38,180 --> 00:06:44,220 population in the open ocean, marked by aggressive hunting patterns, including attacks on large 78 00:06:44,220 --> 00:06:49,620 marine mammals, and signs of encounters

00:07:17,220 Reddit's performance, alongside AsteroLab's successful IPO, suggests growing investor 83 00:07:17,220 --> 00:07:19,100 confidence. 84 00:07:19,100 --> 00:07:24,500 Experts predict this trend could encourage more companies to consider going public, especially 85 00:07:24,500 --> 00:07:29,300 with favorable market conditions, such as potential rate cuts. 86 00:07:29,300 --> 00:07:34,940 The unique challenges Reddit faces in balancing monetization efforts with its community's 87 00:07:34,940 --> 00:07:40,740 expectations highlight the complex dynamics that tech companies

towards addressing the global insulin crisis, scientists have 105 00:08:59,500 --> 00:09:05,380 genetically engineered a cow to produce human insulin in its milk. 106 00:09:05,380 --> 00:09:10,200 This breakthrough, a collaboration between the University of Illinois and the University 107 00:09:10,200 --> 00:09:17,060 of Sao Paulo, leverages the efficiency of cows' mammary glands for protein production. 108 00:09:17,060 --> 00:09:22,220 With the potential to drastically reduce insulin shortages and lower medication costs, this 109 00:09:22,220 --> 00:09:26,580 method could significantly impact the lives of millions. 110 00:09:26,580 --> 00:09:32,980 However, despite this promising development, the journey towards FDA approval and widespread 111 00:09:32,980 --> 00:09:38,720 use remains lengthy, highlighting both the innovation's immense potential and the challenges 112 00:09:38,720 --> 00:09:43,780 ahead in its implementation. 113 00:09:43,780 --> 00:09:50,220 And in entertainment news, a revival of The Boondock Saints is indeed in the works with 114 00:09:50,220 --> 00:09:55,980 Thunder Road, the production house behind John Wick, taking the lead. 115 00:09:55,980 --> 00:10:01,500 Norman Reedus and Sean Patrick Flannery are set to reprise their roles, introducing new 116 00:10:01,500 --> 00:10:05,260 characters to their vigilante cause. 117 00:10:05,260 --> 00:10:10,380 Although the project is currently without a director, Troy Duffy, the original film's 118 00:10:10,380 --> 00:10:13,300 creator, is not directing. 119 00:10:13,300 --> 00:10:18,740 There's also speculation about Willem Tafo's return, given his cameo in the sequel, suggesting 120 00:10:18,740 --> 00:10:23,100 the possibility of his involvement in the upcoming project. 121 00:10:23,100 --> 00:10:29,520 Well, alrighty folks, it's time for the quote of the day. 122 00:10:29,520 --> 00:10:36,500 And today, in honor of March Madness and mentions of Cinderella
