interesting happenings in business, science 5 00:00:21,680 --> 00:00:23,880 and entertainment. 6 00:00:23,880 --> 00:00:27,240 But first, you'll be interested to know. 7 00:00:27,240 --> 00:00:30,760 Today is National Garlic Day. 8 00:00:30,760 --> 00:00:36,400 Garlic has been a valued plant for over 7,000 years, making it one of the oldest cultivated 9 00:00:36,400 --> 00:00:38,280 vegetables. 10 00:00:38,280 --> 00:00:43,120 Originating from Central Asia, garlic was highly appreciated for both its medicinal 11 00:00:43,120 --> 00:00:46,280 properties and culinary uses. 12 00:00:46,280 --> 00:00:52,600 Ancient civilizations, including the Egyptians, who fed garlic to the pyramid builders, recognized 13 00:00:52,600 --> 00:00:58,360 its health benefits, which they believed increased strength and offered disease protection. 14 00:00:58,360 --> 00:01:04,560 Today, garlic continues to be esteemed, often used as an herbal supplement to support heart 15 00:01:04,560 --> 00:01:09,680 health, manage cholesterol and even boost immunity. 16 00:01:09,680 --> 00:01:11,560 So now you know. 17 00:01:11,560 --> 00:01:14,400 And now you know what time it is. 18 00:01:14,400 --> 00:01:19,480 It's time for the surf report. 19 00:01:19,480 --> 00:01:24,840 Expect south-southwest swell to slowly taper off throughout the day on Friday, with average 20 00:01:24,840 --> 00:01:31,960 breaks in South County in the waist-to-shoulder-high range and good spots up around head-high. 21 00:01:31,960 --> 00:01:37,040 Onshore wind builds in the afternoon but looks manageable for many areas before dropping 22 00:01:37,040 --> 00:01:39,480 back off in the evening. 23 00:01:39,480 --> 00:01:45,240 Refresh south-southwest swell is expected for the weekend, with average breaks waist-to-occasional 24 00:01:45,240 --> 00:01:50,000 chest-high and decent summer exposures going shoulder-high. 25 00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:55,080 Focal points of mainly South County stay in the head-high range. 26 00:01:55,080 --> 00:02:01,400 Friday in Encinitas and North County, it's looking good and clean at 3 to 4 feet until 27 00:02:01,400 --> 00:02:05,480 11, then fair until noon. 28 00:02:05,480 --> 00:02:09,600 After that, it's looking choppy until sunset. 29 00:02:09,600 --> 00:02:16,800 Last time to ride is at 6 a.m. with a 3-1⁄2-foot incoming tide when the south-southwest swell 30 00:02:16,800 --> 00:02:23,480 is 3 feet at 15 seconds and the onshore wind is only 2 mile per hour. 31 00:02:23,480 --> 00:02:29,800 The first high tide Friday will be 4 feet just after 730 a.m. with a 0-foot low tide 32 00:02:29,800 --> 00:02:30,800 at 2. 33 00:02:30,800 --> 00:02:39,760 The nearshore viewing at Strix in La Jolla reads 63 degrees for the water temperature. 34 00:02:39,760 --> 00:02:43,560 Checking out the weather in the Encinitas area. 35 00:02:43,560 --> 00:02:51,000 This morning it's mostly cloudy and feels like 56 degrees with 2 mile per hour wind. 36

formed in 2006 by David Poole and 56 00:04:28,520 --> 00:04:34,520 Dominic Peters in Cape Town, South Africa, have made a significant impact on the global 57 00:04:34,520 --> 00:04:36,760 music scene. 58 00:04:36,760 --> 00:04:42,880 Known for blending dance beats with jazz elements through live instruments like saxophone, upright 59 00:04:42,880 --> 00:04:49,000 bass and keyboards, the pair

continuing to innovate and entertain with their unique sound. 64 00:05:08,840 --> 00:05:17,280 You can catch them at Beach House on May 4th. 65 00:05:17,280 --> 00:05:19,360 Now on to sports. 66 00:05:19,360 --> 00:05:26,280 The NHL has approved the relocation of the Arizona Coyotes to Salt Lake City after frustrations 67 00:05:26,280 --> 00:05:31,920 over the inability to secure a long-term arena solution in Arizona. 68 00:05:31,920 --> 00:05:36,680 The team, purchased by Ryan and Ashley Smith of Smith Entertainment Group for just over 69 00:05:36,680 --> 00:05:43,200 $1 billion, will start the next season in Utah as a new franchise. 70 00:05:43,200 --> 00:05:48,240 This move marks a significant shift for the Coyotes, who have struggled with instability 71 00:05:48,240 --> 00:05:49,240 in Arizona. 72 00:05:49,240 --> 00:05:55,560 The new Utah-based team will play at the Delta Center and aims to enhance the local entertainment 73 00:05:55,560 --> 00:06:04,440 district, supported by state funding and a vibrant community ready to embrace NHL hockey. 74 00:06:04,440 --> 00:06:12,520 Last night in local sports, the Kings at home beat the Blackhawks 5-4. 75 00:06:12,520

Florida was 77 00:06:26,400 --> 00:06:31,960 a stanchion from a battery pack released from the International Space Station. 78 00:06:31,960 --> 00:06:37,480 This incident has sparked significant legal and policy discussions, as the homeowner navigates 79 00:06:37,480 --> 00:06:42,760 through the complexities of space law to seek compensation for damages. 80 00:06:42,760 --> 00:06:47,560 The event underscores the challenges of managing space debris and highlights the potential 81 00:06:47,560 --> 00:06:50,960 risks to people and property on Earth. 82 00:06:50,960 --> 00:06:55,700 It also brings into question the adequacy of current laws and international agreements 83 00:06:55,700 --> 00:07:01,940 regarding liability and damage caused by space activities. 84 00:07:01,940 --> 00:07:08,440 In

report 86 00:07:15,680 --> 00:07:18,360 its performance metrics. 87 00:07:18,360 --> 00:07:22,840 As the streaming giant moves away from reporting membership numbers, citing the complexity 88 00:07:22,840 --> 00:07:29,160 introduced by new revenue streams like advertising and extra member features, it will focus on 89 00:07:29,160 --> 00:07:32,800 revenue, operating margin, and engagement metrics. 90 00:07:32,800 --> 00:07:39,680 Additionally, the crackdown on password sharing, which began in May 2023, has reportedly contributed 91 00:07:39,680 --> 00:07:47,280 to a notable increase in subscribers, adding 9.5 million new members in the quarter. 92 00:07:47,280 --> 00:07:54,400 Netflix's operating margin also saw a 7% year-over-year growth, reaching 28%. 93 00:07:54,400 -->

00:08:59,960 --> 00:09:01,880 Let's talk science. 108 00:09:01,880 --> 00:09:08,520 A recent study using the dark energy spectroscopic instrument, otherwise known as DESI, suggests 109 00:09:08,520 --> 00:09:13,640 that dark energy may not be as constant as previously thought. 110 00:09:13,640 --> 00:09:19,840 This challenges the conventional model, which posits that dark energy, driving the universe's 111 00:09:19,840 --> 00:09:23,280 expansion, remains unchanged over time. 112 00:09:23,280 --> 00:09:29,440 DESI's observations, particularly of baryon acoustic oscillations, indicate potential 113 00:09:29,440 --> 00:09:33,000 variations in dark energy's strength. 114 00:09:33,000 --> 00:09:38,240 While these findings are preliminary, they hint at the possibility of evolving dark energy, 115 00:09:38,240 --> 00:09:42,480 potentially reshaping our understanding of the cosmos. 116 00:09:42,480 --> 00:09:48,080 This revelation comes as part of broader efforts to refine cosmological models, with new data 117 00:09:48,080 --> 00:09:53,080 anticipated from upcoming large-scale sky surveys. 118 00:09:53,080 --> 00:10:02,880 And in entertainment news, speaking of, Pearl Jam has released their 12th studio album, 119 00:10:02,880 --> 00:10:08,760 Dark Matter, marking a return to the band's heavier rock roots after their 2020 experimental 120 00:10:08,760 --> 00:10:11,640 album Gigaton. 121 00:10:11,640 --> 00:10:17,900 Produced by Andrew Watt, Dark Matter features 11 robust tracks, including hits like Wreckage 122 00:10:17,900 --> 00:10:20,880 and the chart-topping title track. 123 00:10:20,880 --> 00:10:26,640 The album was developed swiftly over three weeks at Shangri-La Studios in Malibu, reflecting 124 00:10:26,640 --> 00:10:30,640 a vigorous and intense creative process. 125 00:10:30,640 --> 00:10:36,920 Eddie Vedder, emphasizing the album's impact, suggests playing it really loud. 126 00:10:36,920 --> 00:10:42,200 Following the release, Pearl Jam is set to embark on a global tour, bringing their latest 127 00:10:42,200 --> 00:10:46,000 work to fans around the world. 128 00:10:46,000 --> 00:10:48,560 And that's a wrap for this
