In local news, Carlsbad may become the first city in San Diego County to ban all types
of smoking inside and outside multi-unit apartment and condominium buildings.
The City Council voted 4-1 on Tuesday to introduce the ordinance with Councilmember Melanie Berkholder
opposed citing government overreach.
Mayor Keith Blackburn admitted the decision was difficult but emphasized the importance
of public health.
The proposed ordinance targets secondhand smoke which contains harmful chemicals and
would apply to various housing types.
Enforcement would fall to landlords and property managers.
If approved, the ban would take effect on January 1, 2025.
Now on to sports.
Noah Lylesmouth wrote the check and on the Olympic stage, his feet cashed it.
In St. Denis, France, Lyles struggled with slow starts, yet he managed to turn a potential
disaster into triumph.
Competing against a stellar field, including Jamaican's Kishane Thompson and oblique
Seville, Lyles found himself in fifth place at the 20-meter mark.
However, Lyles emphasized, races aren't won with starts.
His resilience and competitive spirit shone through, culminating in a historic 9.79 second
finish.
This made him America's first gold medalist in the 100 meters in 20 years.
In local sports, the Padres at home beat the Rockies 10-2.

In top news, Scottsdale, Arizona, known for its spa resorts and golf courses, is turning
its summer heat into a tourism attraction.
With triple-digit temperatures, the city launched a national campaign called It's That Hot,
promoting the heat as elegant and like a sage-scented sauna.
Hotels offer activities like nighttime mini-golf, cabana misters, and poolside movies to help
visitors cope.
Despite the campaign's creativity, experts worry about the dangers of romanticizing
heat.

Let's talk tech.
Elon Musk's startup, Neuralink, successfully implanted its brain chip in a second trial
patient aiming to help paralyzed individuals use digital devices through thought alone.
The second patient with a spinal cord injury similar to the first now has 400 working electrodes
out of 1,024.
The first patient, Nolan Darbaugh, previously used a mouth stick for computer interaction,
but now controls his laptop through thought, gaining independence.
Musk, during an eight-hour podcast, mentioned Neuralink plans to implant eight more patients
this year.
He also discussed endorsing Donald Trump and improving government efficiency through reduced
regulation.
And in entertainment news, Aerosmith has announced a retirement from touring, citing lead singer
Steven Tyler's vocal cord injury.
The band shared a heartfelt statement on social media saying, play our music loud, now and
always.
Dream on.
You've made our dreams come true.
They expressed gratitude to their fans and reflected on their origins, stating, it was
1970 when a spark of inspiration became Aerosmith.
Thanks to you, our blue army, that spark caught flame and has been burning for over five decades.
Previously purchased tour tickets will be refunded.
Well, all righty, folks, it's time for the quote of the day.
And today, our quote comes from the American gymnast, Simone Biles.
And she said, I would say to always follow your dream.
And dream big, because my whole career, including any of the things that I've accomplished,
I never thought in a million years that I would be here.
So it just proves that once you believe in yourself and you put your mind to something,
you can do it.
And that's a wrap for this morning.
