1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:04,740 Good morning and a warm welcome to your show, 2 00:00:04,740 --> 00:00:07,880 sunny mornings in Encinitas. 3 00:00:07,880 --> 00:00:12,540 I'm your host, Melissa, and it's Thursday, July 11th. 4 00:00:12,540 --> 00:00:15,040 You'll be interested to know. 5 00:00:15,040 --> 00:00:18,340 Today is free slurpy day, offering a sweet way 6 00:00:18,340 --> 00:00:20,240 to beat the heat. 7 00:00:20,240 --> 00:00:23,960 7-Eleven started this tradition in 2002, 8 00:00:23,960 --> 00:00:28,160 but the slurpy dates back to the late 1950s. 9 00:00:28,160 --> 00:00:33,280 With over 300 flavors ranging from vanilla and 70 lemon 10 00:00:33,280 --> 00:00:38,160 to warhead and lychee, there is something for everyone. 11 00:00:38,160 --> 00:00:41,480 Omer Nedlich invented the slurpy, originally called 12 00:00:41,480 --> 00:00:46,880 icy, after a soda fountain breakdown led to frozen sodas. 13 00:00:46,880 --> 00:00:52,640 In 1965, 7-Eleven licensed the icy, renaming it. 14 00:00:52,640 --> 00:00:58,480 On July 11th, 2002, 7-Eleven celebrated its 75th birthday 15 00:00:58,480 --> 00:01:02,000 with the first free slurpy day. 16 00:01:02,000 --> 00:01:04,120 So now

00:05:14,200 Thompson called Curry to share the news. 81 00:05:14,200 --> 00:05:16,680 Curry reflected, you never think you'd ever 82 00:05:16,680 --> 00:05:18,960 have that conversation. 83 00:05:18,960 --> 00:05:21,040 Despite their efforts, Thompson chose 84 00:05:21,040 --> 00:05:23,560 to join the Dallas Mavericks on a three-year, 85 00:05:23,560 --> 00:05:26,240 $50 million deal. 86 00:05:26,240 --> 00:05:30,160 Curry emphasized, I just want him to be happy. 87 00:05:30,160 --> 00:05:32,800 Thompson's decision came after years of struggle 88 00:05:32,800 --> 00:05:36,160 with

the distinctive white splotch on adult females, 97 00:06:04,720 --> 00:06:06,960 are spreading across the United States, 98 00:06:06,960 --> 00:06:09,800 posing serious health threats. 99 00:06:09,800 --> 00:06:12,800 These ticks are aggressive and can transmit diseases 100 00:06:12,800 --> 00:06:16,440 like ehrlichiosis and tularenia, as well as trigger 101 00:06:16,440 --> 00:06:20,600 a rare meat allergy called alpha-gal syndrome. 102 00:06:20,600 --> 00:06:23,480 Originally found in the southeastern United States, 103 00:06:23,480 --> 00:06:25,840 they are now common in northern states 104 00:06:25,840 --> 00:06:29,240 and even parts of Canada. 105 00:06:29,240 --> 00:06:33,320 Experts recommend precautions, such as using insect repellent, 106 00:06:33,320 --> 00:06:35,600 wearing

sizable blow for some hedge funds. 112 00:06:53,560 --> 00:06:57,440 Roughly 18% of the more than 500 hedge funds 113 00:06:57,440 --> 00:06:59,920 had taken a short positions on the stock 114

March. 117 00:07:08,600 --> 00:07:13,200 Tesla had been one of the worst performers in the S and P500, 118 00:07:13,200 --> 00:07:16,360 but recent support for CEO Elon Musk's 119 00:07:16,360 --> 00:07:21,400 $56 billion compensation package has turned things around. 120 00:07:21,400 --> 00:07:23,880 Investors were ecstatic when Tesla delivered 121 00:07:23,880 --> 00:07:28,160 just shy of 444,000 electric vehicles, 122 00:07:28,160 --> 00:07:31,560 surpassing Wall Street's lowered estimates. 123 00:07:31,560 --> 00:07:33,760 Tesla's stock hit a six-month high, 124 00:07:33,760 --> 00:07:37,200 raising the bar for second-quarter results. 125 00:07:37,200 --> 00:07:39,560 While analysts forecast greater highs, 126 00:07:39,560 --> 00:07:43,160 hedge funds remain wary due to Tesla's recent issues 127 00:07:43,160 --> 00:07:44,920 and the potential ramifications 128 00:07:44,920 --> 00:07:48,120 of the U.S. presidential election. 129 00:07:48,120 --> 00:07:49,760 In crypto

trotting at full speed, 152 00:09:04,120 --> 00:09:06,760 a hippo can lift all four hooves off the ground 153 00:09:06,760 --> 00:09:09,520 for 0.3 seconds. 154 00:09:09,520 --> 00:09:11,640 This finding shows that hippos 155 00:09:11,640 --> 00:09:16,640 exhibit relatively greater athletic capacity than elephants. 156 00:09:16,640 --> 00:09:19,400 The study conducted by the Royal Veterinary
