In local 00:03:48.800 --> 00:03:52.599 news, last Monday, Marines returned to Imperial 00:03:52.599 --> 00:03:55.800 Beach after reinforcing the border wall in Cambo, 00:03:55.960 --> 00:03:59.000 tightening strands of barbed wire around notch 00:03:59.000 --> 00:04:02.719 posts. This operation, involving the addition 00:04:02.719 --> 00:04:06.020 of concertina wire, marked a significant military 00:04:06.020 --> 00:04:09.599 presence at the border. While the Marines completed 00:04:09.599 --> 00:04:13.240 their tasks, locals noted the impact of the taller 00:04:13.240 --> 00:04:17.430 wall on migrants.

And property 00:04:21.350 --> 00:04:24.149 owners shared mixed feelings about the military's 00:04:24.149 --> 00:04:26.709 work, acknowledging their respectful demeanor 00:04:26.709 --> 00:04:30.569 but questioning the wall's effectiveness. Meanwhile, 00:04:30.829 --> 00:04:32.870 other news highlights include the challenges 00:04:32.870 --> 00:04:35.970 faced by asylum seekers and recent immigration 00:04:35.970 --> 00:04:45.589 enforcement activities.

Raleigh, needing to 00:04:56.990 --> 00:05:00.230 match Brent Rooker's 17 home runs, initially 00:05:00.230 --> 00:05:03.990 struggled before switching batting stances. Both 00:05:03.990 --> 00:05:07.410 players ended with 17 homers, leading to a tiebreaker 00:05:07.410 --> 00:05:11.339 based on the longest home run.

Despite a decent record, they need multiple 00:06:22.029 --> 00:06:24.870 additions to enhance their chances for a deeper 00:06:24.870 --> 00:06:28.810 playoff run. As they prepare for a crucial 10 00:06:28.810 --> 00:06:31.389 -game road trip, the Padres aim to capitalize 00:06:31.389 --> 00:06:34.430 on their favorable schedule and improve their 00:06:34.430 --> 00:06:40.579 performance.

A middle school student 00:09:34.159 --> 00:09:37.279 from Ontario, Canada, has captured attention 00:09:37.279 --> 00:09:40.919 with his impressive take on the legendary Archimedes 00:09:40.919 --> 00:09:45.100 death ray. Brendan Sinner, who is now 12 years 00:09:45.100 --> 00:09:48.200 old, was inspired by the ancient mathematician's 00:09:48.200 --> 00:09:52.080 idea of harnessing the sun's energy. He crafted 00:09:52.080 --> 00:09:54.940 a miniature version using a heat lamp and four 00:09:54.940 --> 00:09:58.100 concave mirrors, demonstrating that the concept 00:09:58.100 --> 00:10:01.860 could indeed work. His experiments showed increasing 00:10:01.860 --> 00:10:04.840 temperatures at targeted locations, suggesting 00:10:04.840 --> 00:10:07.320 that a larger -scale version could have been 00:10:07.320 --> 00:10:10.960 feasible in ancient times. While no archaeological 00:10:10.960 --> 00:10:14.580 evidence confirms its use, Saner believes the 00:10:14.580 --> 00:10:17.519 principle is certainly possible, highlighting 00:10:17.519 --> 00:10:24.070 the intrigue of Archimedes' inventions.
