at one of the area's busiest intersections, 53 00:04:09,640 --> 00:04:17,520 promising a vibrant late-night food scene. 54 00:04:17,520 --> 00:04:19,600 Now on to sports. 55 00:04:19,600 --> 00:04:25,800 The Atlanta Hawks secured the number one pick in the 2024 NBA Draft Lottery, overcoming 56 00:04:25,800 --> 00:04:30,000 long odds with just a 3% chance of winning. 57 00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:34,120 This victory marks the first time in their history that the Hawks have landed the top 58 00:04:34,120 --> 00:04:35,960 draft pick. 59 00:04:35,960 --> 00:04:41,080 With this advantageous position, Atlanta is now primed to make significant moves that 60 00:04:41,080 --> 00:04:46,920 could reshape their team, potentially easing the process of restructuring their roster, 61 00:04:46,920 --> 00:04:51,280 including a possible trade involving star player Trey Young. 62 00:04:51,280 --> 00:04:56,040 The upcoming draft presents an opportunity for the Hawks to select a cornerstone player 63 00:04:56,040 --> 00:05:00,800 who could anchor the franchise for years to come. 64 00:05:00,800 --> 00:05:09,000 Last night in local sports, the Padres at home beat the Dodgers 4-0. 65 00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:15,000 And tonight, the Padres are at home to take on the Rockies for the start of three game 66 00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:17,640 series. 67 00:05:17,640 --> 00:05:25,280 In top news, Prime Day, initiated by Amazon in 2015, has evolved beyond a mere sales event 68 00:05:25,280 --> 00:05:30,960 to become a significant cultural phenomenon, influencing both consumer behavior and the 69 00:05:30,960 --> 00:05:33,800 retail sector at large. 70 00:05:33,800 --> 00:05:39,960 This event capitalizes on current consumer trends towards value-driven purchases intensified 71 00:05:39,960 --> 00:05:45,480 by ongoing economic uncertainties and inflationary pressures. 72 00:05:45,480 --> 00:05:50,920 The success of Prime Day prompts other retailers to offer similar bargains, creating a ripple 73 00:05:50,920 --> 00:05:57,000 effect across the entire retail landscape, effectively transforming July into a major 74 00:05:57,000 --> 00:05:59,280 shopping season. 75 00:05:59,280 --> 00:06:04,200 This shift not only drives sales but also allows retailers to clear old inventory in 76 00:06:04,200 --> 00:06:11,080 preparation for the holiday season, highlighting how Prime Day has reshaped both consumer expectations 77 00:06:11,080 --> 00:06:14,080 and retail strategies. 78 00:06:14,080 --> 00:06:20,240 In business news, the Biden administration is set to announce a drastic increase in tariffs 79 00:06:20,240 --> 00:06:27,320 on Chinese electric vehicles, raising the current 25% rate to 100%. 80 00:06:27,320 --> 00:06:32,560 This move is part of a broader strategy to protect American manufacturers of clean energy 81 00:06:32,560 --> 00:06:38,720 products, including batteries and solar cells, from cheaper Chinese imports. 82 00:06:38,720 --> 00:06:43,720 The decision is a response to concerns over the competitive-edge Chinese EVs, have due 83 00:06:43,720 --> 00:06:50,760 to lower costs and government subsidies, which threaten the viability of American automakers. 84 00:06:50,760 --> 00:06:56,180 Critics argue that such high tariffs might hinder the adoption of EVs in the US by keeping 85 00:06:56,180 --> 00:07:02,980 more affordable options out of the market, potentially slowing progress on emission reductions. 86 00:07:02,980 --> 00:07:13,400 In crypto movement, Bitcoin is just over $61,000, Ethereum is $2,900, and Solana is $140,000. 87 00:07:13,400 --> 00:07:20,200 Moving on to a more local vibe. 88 00:07:20,200 --> 00:07:26,160 In our community spotlight on health and wellness, we are working with a national Pilates studio 89

show. 98 00:08:07,720 --> 00:08:09,720 Let's talk science. 99 00:08:09,720 --> 00:08:15,960 In a serendipitous discovery, a father-daughter duo, Tim and young Henley Wallach, stumbled 100 00:08:15,960 --> 00:08:21,880 upon a 152-year-old shipwreck while fishing in Wisconsin. 101 00:08:21,880 --> 00:08:28,120 This historical artifact, identified as the George Al Newman, has direct ties to the infamous 102 00:08:28,120 --> 00:08:32,240 Great Peshtigo Fire of 1871. 103 00:08:32,240 --> 00:08:38,720 The vessel, engulfed in dense smoke from the fire, ran aground and was later abandoned. 104 00:08:38,720 --> 00:08:44,040 This find not only adds a piece to Wisconsin's maritime history, but also serves as a tangible 105 00:08:44,040 --> 00:08:50,520 link to America's deadliest wildfire, emphasizing the interconnectedness of historical events 106 00:08:50,520 --> 00:08:53,520 and natural disasters. 107 00:08:53,520 --> 00:09:02,440 And in entertainment news, Janet Maslin, a venerable American film critic, revisits the 108 00:09:02,440 --> 00:09:08,640 expansive career of director Ron Howard, uncovering layers of depth and mastery in 109 00:09:08,640 --> 00:09:10,840 his filmmaking. 110 00:09:10,840 --> 00:09:17,040 Having initially underestimated Howard during his early acting days and directorial debut, 111 00:09:17,040 --> 00:09:22,920 Maslin acknowledges her oversight as she now recognizes his evolved craft. 112 00:09:22,920 --> 00:09:28,440 From his portrayal in The Shootist, alongside Cinema Legends, to directing critically acclaimed 113 00:09:28,440 --> 00:09:35,160 films like Apollo 13 and the poignant Hillbilly Elegy, Howard's work ethic and inventive 114 00:09:35,160 --> 00:09:37,880 storytelling shine through. 115 00:09:37,880 --> 00:09:44,900 His film, Thirteen Lies, lauded as one of the best American films of 2022, exemplifies 116 00:09:44,900 --> 00:09:50,840 his skill in creating gripping narratives without unnecessary embellishments. 117 00:09:50,840 --> 00:09:55,800 Through Maslin's reflection, Howard emerges not just as the nice figure from his acting 118 00:09:55,800 --> 00:10:01,160 career, but as a formidable and thoughtful filmmaker whose contributions to cinema are 119 00:10:01,160 --> 00:10:03,880 both significant and enduring. 120 00:10:03,880 --> 00:10:09,920 Well, alrighty folks, it's time for the quote of the day. 121 00:10:09,920 --> 00:10:16,760 And today, our quote comes from the great director, producer, and writer, Ron Howard. 122 00:10:16,760 --> 00:10:17,760 And Ron said, 123 00:10:17,760 --> 00:10:23,120 I used to feel that I had to be dictatorial in order to be respected. 124 00:10:23,120 --> 00:10:29,920 But after I did a couple of TV movies, I began to see that authority came with the job. 125 00:10:29,920 --> 00:10:37,000 So I began to relax and let more people into the process, and my work really improved. 126 00:10:37,000 --> 00:10:39,520 And that's a wrap for this morning. 127 00:10:39,520 --> 00:10:45,440 You can check out our Instagram, YouTube, and TikTok for some captivating aerial videos 128 00:10:45,440 --> 00:10:48,120 with local news and
