00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:06,960
Good morning and a warm welcome to your show, Sunny Mornings in San Diego.

2
00:00:06,960 --> 00:00:11,600
I'm your host Melissa, and it's Friday, May 10th.

3
00:00:11,600 --> 00:00:16,440
Coming up on today's show, we'll get into the surf report and the weather outlook, then

4
00:00:16,440 --> 00:00:21,680
we'll jump into some local news and a few interesting happenings in business, science

5
00:00:21,680 --> 00:00:23,840
and entertainment.

6
00:00:23,840 --> 00:00:27,060
But first, you'll be interested to know.

7
00:00:27,060 --> 00:00:30,000
Today is National Shrimp Day.

8
00:00:30,000 --> 00:00:36,240
Known as the fruit of the sea, these versatile crustaceans can even glow in the dark.

9
00:00:36,240 --> 00:00:42,160
Malvis Presley immortalized them in song, reflecting their cultural significance.

10
00:00:42,160 --> 00:00:48,680
Enthusiasts can indulge in various preparations, grilled, fried or chilled, and served in sandwiches,

11
00:00:48,680 --> 00:00:51,920
salads or with cocktail sauce.

12
00:00:51,920 --> 00:00:54,560
Feels like a shrimp taco night.

13
00:00:54,560 --> 00:00:56,440
So now you know.

14
00:00:56,440 --> 00:00:59,280
And now you know what time it is.

15
00:00:59,280 --> 00:01:04,360
It's time for the surf report.

16
00:01:04,360 --> 00:01:10,320
Expect waist-to-stomach-high waves with occasional chest-high sets on Friday.

17
00:01:10,320 --> 00:01:17,680
South County San Diego focal points still push chest-to-head-high, but with inconsistency.

18
00:01:17,680 --> 00:01:23,640
Light and variable wind in the morning shifts to onshore west, or west-northwest wind, in

19
00:01:23,640 --> 00:01:25,560
the afternoon.

20
00:01:25,560 --> 00:01:31,400
The weekend sees a new round of long periods southwest swell with waist-to-stomach, occasional

21
00:01:31,400 --> 00:01:38,640
chest-high waves, and chest-high-to-head-high surf at South County Magnets, Friday at Tourmaline

22
00:01:38,640 --> 00:01:40,560
and South San Diego.

23
00:01:40,560 --> 00:01:45,560
It's looking clean to fare at 2 to 3 feet in the morning.

24
00:01:45,560 --> 00:01:53,040
With a patch of rough stuff from 11 to 7, might be able to catch a few around sunset.

25
00:01:53,040 --> 00:01:59,400
First time to ride is at 7 a.m. with a zero-foot incoming tide when the northwest swell is

26
00:01:59,400 --> 00:02:05,720
2 feet at 14 seconds and the onshore wind is 3 mile per hour.

27
00:02:05,720 --> 00:02:12,280
The first high tide Friday will be 4 feet at 1230 with a 2-foot low tide at 430.

28
00:02:12,280 --> 00:02:21,160
The nearshore buoy at Scripps in La Jolla reads 64 degrees for the water temperature.

29
00:02:21,160 --> 00:02:25,080
Checking out the weather in the San Diego area.

30
00:02:25,080 --> 00:02:32,160
This morning it's mostly cloudy and feels like 60 degrees with 2 mile per hour wind.

31
00:02:32,160 --> 00:02:39,460
The sunset will take place at 737 and it will rise again tomorrow at 552.

32
00:02:39,460 --> 00:02:45,040
It looks like we're in for a partly sunny day with a high near 70 and wind of 5 to 10

33
00:02:45,040 --> 00:02:46,800
mile per hour.

34
00:02:46,800 --> 00:02:48,520
Tonight.

35
00:02:48,520 --> 00:02:52,920
Mostly cloudy with a low of 57.

36
00:02:52,920 --> 00:02:55,320
Looking ahead in the weather.

37
00:02:55,320 --> 00:03:00,360
This weekend will be mostly cloudy with highs in the mid-60s.

38
00:03:00,360 --> 00:03:05,600
Saturday will gradually become sunny while Sunday will start mostly cloudy, then gradually

39
00:03:05,600 --> 00:03:07,680
become sunny.

40
00:03:07,680 --> 00:03:13,220
Next week starts with mostly cloudy skies and a high near 65 on Monday becoming sunny

41
00:03:13,220 --> 00:03:15,440
in the afternoon.

42
00:03:15,440 --> 00:03:20,480
Tuesday will follow a similar pattern starting cloudy and turning mostly sunny with a high

43
00:03:20,480 --> 00:03:22,200
near 64.

44
00:03:22,200 --> 00:03:25,360
Bonjour, food enthusiasts.

45
00:03:25,360 --> 00:03:31,000
This podcast is brought to you by Versailles Cafe and Pastries in Encinitas.

46
00:03:31,000 --> 00:03:37,440
Nestled on El Camino Real South, just north of Encinitas Boulevard, this cafe is a haven

47
00:03:37,440 --> 00:03:40,240
for culinary delights.

48
00:03:40,240 --> 00:03:45,800
Indulge in their amazing Eggs Benedict or their gluten-free crepes.

49
00:03:45,800 --> 00:03:50,600
You can grab a panini for lunch or just breeze on through to get your morning coffee.

50
00:03:50,600 --> 00:03:54,560
They are open every day from 8 to 5.

51
00:03:54,560 --> 00:03:58,000
So stop on by and don't forget to tell them.

52
00:03:58,000 --> 00:04:01,360
Sunny mornings send you.

53
00:04:01,360 --> 00:04:07,440
In local news, San Diego residents may soon see changes in their electricity bills due

54
00:04:07,440 --> 00:04:13,120
to a proposal aimed at making energy costs more affordable, particularly for lower income

55
00:04:13,120 --> 00:04:14,960
families.

56
00:04:14,960 --> 00:04:23,120
This initiative follows a 2022 law requiring a plan to adjust electric rates by July 2024.

57
00:04:23,120 --> 00:04:29,180
The California Public Utilities Commission is considering a plan proposed by SDG&E for

58
00:04:29,180 --> 00:04:32,400
an income-based fixed-rate system.

59
00:04:32,400 --> 00:04:38,480
If approved, this would set a flat monthly rate of $24 for most consumers, with significant

60
00:04:38,480 --> 00:04:45,840
reductions for those in financial assistance programs who would pay $12 or even $6.

61
00:04:45,840 --> 00:04:50,720
While the proposal is praised for promoting equity, it faces opposition from the California

62
00:04:50,720 --> 00:04:56,760
Senate, Republican caucus, which fears it could lead to higher costs, and discourage

63
00:04:56,760 --> 00:04:59,200
energy conservation.

64
00:04:59,200 --> 00:05:03,520
The decision will be made in a vote later this week, with potential implementations

65
00:05:03,520 --> 00:05:13,160
slated for late 2025 or early 2026.

66
00:05:13,160 --> 00:05:15,320
Now on to sports.

67
00:05:15,320 --> 00:05:20,680
Milwaukee Bucks guard Patrick Beverly has been suspended for the first four games of

68
00:05:20,680 --> 00:05:24,560
the upcoming NBA season without pay.

69
00:05:24,560 --> 00:05:29,620
The suspension comes as a result of Beverly throwing a basketball into the stands, striking

70
00:05:29,620 --> 00:05:35,320
a fan, during the Bucks' playoff loss to the Indiana Pacers.

71
00:05:35,320 --> 00:05:41,640
Beverly has accepted responsibility for his actions and expressed remorse for the incident.

72
00:05:41,640 --> 00:05:45,860
This isn't Beverly's first encounter with disciplinary action from the league, as he

73
00:05:45,860 --> 00:05:52,360
has a history of on-court altercations and unsportsmanlike conduct.

74
00:05:52,360 --> 00:05:56,840
No games in San Diego last night, but tonight.

75
00:05:56,840 --> 00:06:03,560
The Padres are at home to take on the Dodgers in the first game of a three-game series.

76
00:06:03,560 --> 00:06:11,120
The San Diego Padres, despite a 500 record, are showing promising signs of improvement.

77
00:06:11,120 --> 00:06:16,920
Robert Suarez's emergence as a reliable closer and improved team chemistry are key

78
00:06:16,920 --> 00:06:20,360
factors contributing to this positive outlook.

79
00:06:20,360 --> 00:06:26,080
However, concerns remain regarding the starting rotation's death and Xander Bogart's struggles

80
00:06:26,080 --> 00:06:27,880
at the plate.

81
00:06:27,880 --> 00:06:32,960
Jorickson Profar's positive influence on a team's culture highlights his value beyond

82
00:06:32,960 --> 00:06:34,800
individual statistics.

83
00:06:34,800 --> 00:06:44,600
In top news, new research suggests that famed composer Ludwig van Beethoven may have suffered

84
00:06:44,600 --> 00:06:50,320
from lead poisoning, potentially contributing to his lifelong health issues, including his

85
00:06:50,320 --> 00:06:52,720
well-known deafness.

86
00:06:52,720 --> 00:06:58,260
High levels of lead were discovered in authenticated locks of Beethoven's hair, along with elevated

87
00:06:58,260 --> 00:07:01,200
levels of arsenic and mercury.

88
00:07:01,200 --> 00:07:06,120
While the lead poisoning wasn't deemed severe enough to be the sole cause of death, it's

89
00:07:06,120 --> 00:07:12,520
believed to have played a role in his gastrointestinal problems, hearing loss, and other ailments.

90
00:07:12,520 --> 00:07:17,280
The source of the lead poisoning is suspected to be a combination of factors, including

91
00:07:17,280 --> 00:07:22,840
his consumption of wine and fish, both of which could have been contaminated with lead,

92
00:07:22,840 --> 00:07:26,720
arsenic, and mercury during his lifetime.

93
00:07:26,720 --> 00:07:33,960
In business news, WeWork, the popular co-working company, has successfully renegotiated its

94
00:07:33,960 --> 00:07:38,540
leases in Atlanta as part of its bankruptcy proceedings.

95
00:07:38,540 --> 00:07:44,040
The company will continue operating six of its 11 locations in the metro Atlanta area,

96
00:07:44,040 --> 00:07:47,640
focusing on profitable spaces.

97
00:07:47,640 --> 00:07:52,920
Five unprofitable locations, including its office on the Beltline Eastside Trail, will

98
00:07:52,920 --> 00:07:55,040
be closed.

99
00:07:55,040 --> 00:08:00,960
This move comes as WeWork has reduced its global rent commitments by over $11 billion,

100
00:08:00,960 --> 00:08:04,480
aiming for a more sustainable future.

101
00:08:04,480 --> 00:08:09,720
The company anticipates emerging from bankruptcy by the end of May, expressing gratitude to

102
00:08:09,720 --> 00:08:14,440
landlords for their cooperation during this process.

103
00:08:14,440 --> 00:08:22,760
In crypto movement, Bitcoin is just under $63,000, Ethereum is just under $3,000, and

104
00:08:22,760 --> 00:08:28,440
Solana is $151.

105
00:08:28,440 --> 00:08:31,840
Moving on to a more local vibe.

106
00:08:31,840 --> 00:08:37,800
In our community spotlight on health and wellness, we are working with a national Pilates studio

107
00:08:37,800 --> 00:08:42,120
to bring you some free classes, so listen up.

108
00:08:42,120 --> 00:08:46,960
Check out Club Pilates, with several locations in the San Diego area.

109
00:08:46,960 --> 00:08:53,160
Pilates presents a comprehensive wellness approach, cultivating strength, reducing tension,

110
00:08:53,160 --> 00:08:56,640
and elevating mental well-being.

111
00:08:56,640 --> 00:08:59,980
Scientific research affirms its benefits.

112
00:08:59,980 --> 00:09:06,280
So now you can check out Club Pilates for a free class, with locations in Encinitas,

113
00:09:06,280 --> 00:09:11,560
Solana Beach, Oceanside, La Jolla, and more.

114
00:09:11,560 --> 00:09:15,680
Just be sure to tell them Sunny Morning sent you by.

115
00:09:15,680 --> 00:09:19,400
And now back to the show.

116
00:09:19,400 --> 00:09:21,600
Let's talk tech.

117
00:09:21,600 --> 00:09:28,760
OpenAI, the company behind the popular AI chatbot, ChatGPT, is set to announce its new AI-powered

118
00:09:28,760 --> 00:09:31,420
search product on Monday.

119
00:09:31,420 --> 00:09:36,600
This move directly challenges Google's dominance in the search engine market and intensifies

120
00:09:36,600 --> 00:09:40,840
the competition between the two tech giants.

121
00:09:40,840 --> 00:09:46,080
OpenAI's search product aims to provide users with more accurate and real-time information

122
00:09:46,080 --> 00:09:51,500
by integrating with the web and including citations in its responses.

123
00:09:51,500 --> 00:09:56,360
The announcement is strategically timed just before Google's annual conference, where

124
00:09:56,360 --> 00:10:01,840
Google is expected to unveil its own AI-related advancements.

125
00:10:01,840 --> 00:10:06,200
And in entertainment news.

126
00:10:06,200 --> 00:10:11,520
A recent court ruling regarding the use of a video clip in the Tiger King docu-series

127
00:10:11,520 --> 00:10:17,680
has raised concerns among filmmakers about the potential limitations on fair use of copyrighted

128
00:10:17,680 --> 00:10:20,480
material in documentaries.

129
00:10:20,480 --> 00:10:25,360
The court determined that the use of a funeral video excerpt was not transformative enough

130
00:10:25,360 --> 00:10:30,680
to qualify as fair use, potentially setting a precedent that could restrict the use of

131
00:10:30,680 --> 00:10:34,560
unlicensed footage in documentaries.

132
00:10:34,560 --> 00:10:38,480
Filmmakers and industry groups argue that this ruling could have a chilling effect on

133
00:10:38,480 --> 00:10:45,680
documentary filmmaking, particularly for projects that rely on archival footage or news clips.

134
00:10:45,680 --> 00:10:50,480
They emphasize the importance of fair use for non-fiction storytelling and warn that

135
00:10:50,480 --> 00:10:55,760
the ruling could lead to increased costs and legal challenges for documentarians.

136
00:10:55,760 --> 00:11:01,760
Well, alrighty folks, it's time for the quote of the day.

137
00:11:01,760 --> 00:11:07,160
And today, in honor of National Shrimp Day, our quote comes from everyone's favorite

138
00:11:07,160 --> 00:11:08,160
bubba.

139
00:11:08,160 --> 00:11:10,840
Bubba Blue from Forrest Gump.

140
00:11:10,840 --> 00:11:15,720
Anyway, like I was saying, shrimp is the fruit of the sea.

141
00:11:15,720 --> 00:11:20,640
You can barbecue it, boil it, brawl it, bake it, saute it.

142
00:11:20,640 --> 00:11:29,240
There's shrimp kabobs, shrimp creole, shrimp gumbo, pan-fried, deep-fried, stir-fried.

143
00:11:29,240 --> 00:11:35,520
There's pineapple shrimp, lemon shrimp, coconut shrimp, pepper shrimp.

144
00:11:35,520 --> 00:11:44,280
Shrimp soup, shrimp stew, shrimp salad, shrimp and potatoes, shrimp burger, shrimp sandwich.

145
00:11:44,280 --> 00:11:51,080
That's, that's about it.

146
00:11:51,080 --> 00:11:53,720
And that's a wrap for this morning.

147
00:11:53,720 --> 00:11:59,720
You can check out our Instagram, YouTube, and TikTok for some captivating aerial videos

148
00:11:59,720 --> 00:12:02,200
with local news and the surf reports.

149
00:12:02,200 --> 00:12:05,120
Have an amazing weekend, my good friends.

150
00:12:05,120 --> 00:12:14,760
We'll see you Monday with another episode of Sunny Mornings in San Diego.
