to the loss of over 1 ,500 lives. This disaster

00:00:32.560 --> 00:00:35.479

00:04:09.310 --> 00:04:15.090
sent you. In local news, residents and business

00:04:15.090 --> 00:04:18.370
leaders in San Diego are expressing concern over

00:04:18.370 --> 00:04:21.170
proposed changes that could eliminate free parking

00:04:21.170 --> 00:04:25.290
in some of the city's most popular areas. The

00:04:25.290 --> 00:04:28.069
Hillcrest Business Association has urged council

00:04:28.069 --> 00:04:31.329
member Steph Whitburn to reconsider, citing that

00:04:31.329 --> 00:04:34.310
construction on the new Pride Promenade. relied

00:04:34.310 --> 00:04:37.689
on funds from parking meter revenue. Executive

00:04:37.689 --> 00:04:41.089
Director Benjamin Nichols warns that future projects

00:04:41.089 --> 00:04:44.290
could be jeopardized if the City's proposal reduces

00:04:44.290 --> 00:04:50.310
parking district revenue from 45 % to 15%. Balboa

00:04:50.310 --> 00:04:53.269
Park may also see parking changes, which could

00:04:53.269 --> 00:04:57.149
deter visitors. The City aims to address a budget

00:04:57.149 --> 00:05:01.089
shortfall exceeding $250 million through these

00:05:01.089 --> 00:05:10.459
adjustments. Now on to sports. The Masters begins

at Augusta National. Will Scotty Scheffler defend

00:05:18.139 --> 00:05:21.980
his title, or will Rory McIlroy finally win another

00:05:21.980 --> 00:05:25.959
major? Scheffler is currently the top player,

00:05:26.139 --> 00:05:30.420
but he has not won this season. McIlroy is in

00:05:30.420 --> 00:05:33.379
excellent form, yet struggles to close out majors.

00:05:34.509 --> 00:05:37.949
Colin Morikoa ranks high statistically, but has

00:05:37.949 --> 00:05:42.110
more runner -up finishes than wins. Other contenders

00:05:42.110 --> 00:05:45.970

00:05:53.610 --> 00:05:57.129

after President Donald Trump stated, this is

00:07:09.949 --> 00:07:12.709
a great time to buy, just before announcing a

Senator Richard Blumenthal and Richard Painter,

00:07:35.639 --> 00:07:38.100
question whether this could lead to accusations

00:07:38.100 --> 00:07:42.060
of market manipulation. A White House spokesperson

00:07:42.060 --> 00:07:45.000
emphasized the president's role in reassuring

00:07:45.000 --> 00:07:49.500
Americans about economic security. In business

State Farm, is facing a critical rate hearing

00:07:56.939 --> 00:08:00.589
in Oakland. The question at hand is whether State

00:08:00.589 --> 00:08:03.529
Farm should raise prices for consumers to ensure

00:08:03.529 --> 00:08:07.670
its financial viability. Consumer advocacy group

00:08:07.670 --> 00:08:10.389
Consumer Watchdog opposes the rate increase,

00:08:10.750 --> 00:08:13.029
while State Farm and the California Department

00:08:13.029 --> 00:08:17.389

Just be sure to tell them Sunny Morning sent

00:09:41.610 --> 00:09:47.450
you by. And now, back to the show. Let's talk

00:09:47.450 --> 00:09:52.100
tech. North Korea has amassed more than $6 billion

00:09:52.100 --> 00:09:55.980
through sophisticated cyber operations, funding

00:09:55.980 --> 00:10:00.840
its nuclear program. On July 18th, hackers targeted

00:10:00.840 --> 00:10:04.700
WazirX, India's largest cryptocurrency exchange,

00:10:05.080 --> 00:10:09.320
and stole over $200 million in just one hour.

00:10:10.320 --> 00:10:13.279
Investigators reveal that these hackers are incredibly

00:10:13.279 --> 00:10:16.200
skilled. using social engineering and deception

00:10:16.200 --> 00:10:20.580
to gain access to sensitive systems. With state

00:10:20.580 --> 00:10:22.919
-sponsored resources, they can wait patiently

00:10:22.919 --> 00:10:26.240
to exploit vulnerabilities, making them the world's

00:10:26.240 --> 00:10:29.980
most dangerous crypto thieves. Their criminal

00:10:29.980 --> 00:10:33.220
activities serve as a means to support a sanctioned

00:10:33.220 --> 00:10:36.139
strapped economy and further the regime's ambitions.

00:10:42.090 --> 00:10:44.909
James Cameron recently joined the Boz to the

00:10:44.909 --> 00:10:47.669
Future podcast, where he discussed the future

00:10:47.669 --> 00:10:50.870
of blockbuster filmmaking, emphasizing the need

00:10:50.870 --> 00:10:54.809
to cut the cost of visual effects in half. He

00:10:54.809 --> 00:10:57.330
is exploring how artificial intelligence can

00:10:57.330 --> 00:11:00.470
help reduce expenses without displacing staff.

00:11:01.889 --> 00:11:04.450
Cameron, who joined the board of directors for

00:11:04.450 --> 00:11:08.129
Stability AI, aims to integrate AI into visual

00:11:08.129 --> 00:11:12.600
effects workflows to enhance efficiency. He expressed

00:11:12.600 --> 00:11:16.179
skepticism about AI's ability to write compelling

00:11:16.179 --> 00:11:19.620
stories, asserting that true storytelling requires

00:11:19.620 --> 00:11:23.960
human experience. Cameron is currently in post

00:11:23.960 --> 00:11:27.440
-production on the upcoming Avatar sequel, Fire

00:11:27.440 --> 00:11:30.860
and Ash, set to be released on December 19th.

00:11:31.840 --> 00:11:35.259
Well, alrighty folks, it's time for the quote

00:11:35.259 --> 00:11:39.039
of the day. And today, our quote comes from the

00:11:39.039 --> 00:11:43.179
American author and speaker, Alan Klein. And

00:11:43.179 --> 00:11:47.340
he said, your attitude is like a box of crayons

00:11:47.340 --> 00:11:51.279
that color your world. Constantly color your

00:11:51.279 --> 00:11:54.279
picture gray and your picture will always be

00:11:54.279 --> 00:11:58.259
bleak. Try adding some bright colors to the picture

00:11:58.259 --> 00:12:01.320
by including humor and your picture begins to

00:12:01.320 --> 00:12:05.259
lighten up. And that's a wrap for this morning.

00:12:05.799 --> 00:12:09.080
You can check out our Instagram, YouTube, and
