1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:07,000 Good morning and a warm welcome to your show, Sunny Mornings in Encinitas. 2 00:00:07,000 --> 00:00:12,720 I'm your host, Melissa, and it's Friday, October 18th. 3 00:00:12,720 --> 00:00:14,960 You'll be interested to know. 4 00:00:14,960 --> 00:00:22,960 Forty-five years ago, today, in 1979, Mother Teresa, founder of a Roman Catholic order 5 00:00:22,960 --> 00:00:29,040 of women dedicated to the poor, and particularly to the destitute of India, was awarded the 6 00:00:29,040 --> 00:00:32,000 Nobel Prize for Peace. 7 00:00:32,000 --> 00:00:37,800 Her outstanding humanitarian work highlighted the profound impact of selfless service and 8 00:00:37,800 --> 00:00:42,520 brought global attention to the plight of the impoverished. 9 00:00:42,520 --> 00:00:44,600 So now you know. 10 00:00:44,600 --> 00:00:50,800 And now it's time for the Surf Report. 11 00:00:50,800 --> 00:00:55,680 Expect me to waste high swell on Thursday, with light side-shore texture in the morning 12 00:00:55,680 --> 00:01:02,840 and offshore winds becoming semi-choppy in the afternoon with onshore winds. 13 00:01:02,840 --> 00:01:08,920 On Friday, conditions will be similar in the morning, transitioning to bumpy in the afternoon. 14 00:01:08,920 --> 00:01:14,680 Saturday and Sunday mornings will be glassy with offshore winds turning semi-choppy in 15 00:01:14,680 --> 00:01:17,200 the afternoons. 16 00:01:17,200 --> 00:01:21,200 Thursday in Encinitas and North County. 17 00:01:21,200 --> 00:01:25,640 It's looking fair at two to three feet until noon. 18 00:01:25,640 --> 00:01:29,800 After that, it's looking pretty choppy until sunset. 19 00:01:29,800 --> 00:01:37,360 Best time to ride is at 7 a.m. with a 4.5-foot incoming high tide when the south-southeast 20 00:01:37,360 --> 00:01:44,240 swell is 2 feet at 13 seconds and the offshore wind is 6 mile per hour. 21 00:01:44,240 --> 00:01:51,640 The first high tide will be 6.5-foot at 9.15 a.m. with a minus-a-half-foot low tide just 22 00:01:51,640 --> 00:01:53,720 before 4. 23 00:01:53,720 --> 00:02:01,040 The nearshore buoy at Beacons reads 65 degrees for the water temperature. 24 00:02:01,040 --> 00:02:07,040 This morning it's a slight chance of rain showers and feels like 62 degrees with 8 mile 25 00:02:07,040 --> 00:02:09,160 per hour wind. 26 00:02:09,160 --> 00:02:15,960 The sunset will take place at 6.11 and it will rise again tomorrow at 6.56. 27 00:02:15,960 --> 00:02:20,600 It looks like we're in for a cloudy day with a chance of light rain showers and a high 28 00:02:20,600 --> 00:02:25,600 around 65 accompanied by a gentle south wind. 29 00:02:25,600 --> 00:02:34,400 Tonight we can expect continued cloudy skies with a low of 60 and light winds. 30 00:02:34,400 --> 00:02:36,920 Looking ahead in the weather. 31 00:02:36,920 --> 00:02:44,400 Expect mostly sunny skies through Monday with daytime highs ranging from 63 to 66 degrees. 32 00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:49,360 Nights will be partly cloudy with lows around 58 to 60. 33 00:02:49,360 --> 00:02:54,440 Apache fog may develop after 11 p.m. on Monday, so stay alert. 34 00:02:54,440 --> 00:02:57,480 Bonjour, food enthusiasts. 35 00:02:57,480 --> 00:03:02,400 This podcast is brought to you by Versailles Cafe and Pastries in Encinitas. 36 00:03:02,400 --> 00:03:09,560 Nestled on El Camino Real South, just north of Encinitas Boulevard, this cafe is a haven 37 00:03:09,560 --> 00:03:12,360 for culinary delights. 38 00:03:12,360 --> 00:03:17,920 Indulge in their amazing eggs Benedict or their gluten-free crepes. 39 00:03:17,920 --> 00:03:22,680 You can grab a panini for lunch or just breeze on through to get your morning coffee. 40 00:03:22,680 --> 00:03:26,680 They are open every day from 8 to 5. 41 00:03:26,680 --> 00:03:30,120 So stop on by and don't forget to tell them. 42 00:03:30,120 --> 00:03:33,480 Sunny mornings send you. 43 00:03:33,480 --> 00:03:40,880 In local news, Danish pharmaceutical giant Lundvek has agreed to acquire La Jolla-based 44 00:03:40,880 --> 00:03:49,320 Longboard Pharmaceuticals for nearly $3 billion, aiming to access its innovative epilepsy drug. 45 00:03:49,320 --> 00:03:54,560 This acquisition, announced on Monday, will enhance Lundvek's portfolio for neurological 46 00:03:54,560 --> 00:03:59,080 conditions, including Parkinson's disease and migraines. 47 00:03:59,080 --> 00:04:06,020 Longboard's lead drug candidate, Mexicasserin, is an oral treatment for rare epileptic disorders 48 00:04:06,020 --> 00:04:13,000 and has received a breakthrough therapy designation from the United States Food and Drug Administration. 49 00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:18,320 The deal, the largest in Lundvek's history, is expected to close by the end of this year, 50 00:04:18,320 --> 00:04:27,520 with Longboard stock surging significantly following the announcement. 51 00:04:27,520 --> 00:04:30,040 Now on to sports. 52 00:04:30,040 --> 00:04:35,780 On Thursday night football, the New Orleans Saints, holding a record of 2-4, host the 53 00:04:35,780 --> 00:04:42,000 Denver Broncos, who stand at 3-3 in a game rich with nostalgia. 54 00:04:42,000 --> 00:04:47,120 Sean Payton will make his return to the Superdome, this time as Denver's coach, facing his 55 00:04:47,120 --> 00:04:52,160 former team now led by rookie quarterback Spencer Rattler. 56 00:04:52,160 --> 00:04:57,560 The Saints defense, ranked last in the league, faces a significant challenge from Bo Nix 57 00:04:57,560 --> 00:05:00,680 and the Broncos' dynamic offense. 58 00:05:00,680 --> 00:05:06,960 Oddsmakers favor Denver by 3 points, with an over-under set at 46. 59 00:05:06,960 --> 00:05:11,920 Meanwhile in baseball, the Yankees will face off against the Guardians tonight at Progressive 60 00:05:11,920 --> 00:05:18,400 Field for game 3 of the ALCS, with New York leading the series 2-0. 61 00:05:18,400 --> 00:05:22,440 Clark Schmidt will face Matthew Boyd. 62 00:05:22,440 --> 00:05:29,840 Fans can expect a cool 58 degrees in Cleveland, with the Yankees favored by 1-1.5 runs. 63 00:05:29,840 --> 00:05:36,840 Last night, the Los Angeles Dodgers dominated the New York Mets 8-0 in game 3 of the NLCCS 64 00:05:36,840 --> 00:05:38,840 at Citi Field. 65 00:05:38,840 --> 00:05:45,720 Shohei Otani's 3-run homer in the 8th sealed the win, while Michael Kopek delivered a stellar 66 00:05:45,720 --> 00:05:51,040 performance, securing the victory with 6 strikeouts over 9 innings. 67 00:05:51,040 --> 00:05:56,600 The Dodgers now lead the series 2-1, placing the Mets in a challenging position. 68 00:05:56,600 --> 00:06:02,160 Tonight, the teams return to Citi Field for game 4, with Yoshinobu Yamamoto taking the 69 00:06:02,160 --> 00:06:05,120 mound against Jose Quintana. 70 00:06:05,120 --> 00:06:10,320 The weather in Queens is expected to be a brisk 55 degrees, and the Mets are favored 71 00:06:10,320 --> 00:06:13,600 by 1-1.5 runs. 72 00:06:13,600 --> 00:06:19,980 In local sports, the Los Angeles Chargers are making strides this season with a record 73 00:06:19,980 --> 00:06:25,600 of 3 wins and 2 losses under new head coach Jim Harbaugh. 74 00:06:25,600 --> 00:06:30,720 Nevertheless, there's room for improvement on the defensive line. 75 00:06:30,720 --> 00:06:37,240 With key players like Otito Abinia, Puna Ford, and Tiertard on one-year contracts, the team 76 00:06:37,240 --> 00:06:39,680 is seeking a long-term solution. 77 00:06:39,680 --> 00:06:45,680 ESPN's Jordan Reed suggests Dion Walker as an ideal fit. 78 00:06:45,680 --> 00:06:53,000 The 6'6", 345-pound defensive tackle from the Kentucky Wildcats excels at stopping the 79 00:06:53,000 --> 00:06:57,640 run and possesses impressive agility for his size. 80 00:06:57,640 --> 00:07:02,200 Walker is a potential first-round pick that aligns perfectly with Harbaugh's vision 81 00:07:02,200 --> 00:07:04,240 for the team. 82 00:07:04,240 --> 00:07:08,760 Shifting gears to hockey, the Los Angeles Kings are looking to improve their record 83 00:07:08,760 --> 00:07:15,720 as they head to Montreal tonight to face the Canadians, who stand at 2-2. 84 00:07:15,720 --> 00:07:20,800 Anne's Kopitor leads the Kings with 6 points, while Montreal's Cole Caufield is making 85 00:07:20,800 --> 00:07:24,440 waves with 4 goals and 6 points. 86 00:07:24,440 --> 00:07:30,200 Unfortunately, goaltender Darcy Comber is out for L.A., which could impact their performance. 87 00:07:30,200 --> 00:07:38,520 In top news, the side effects of ozempic, an injectable drug primarily used for weight 88 00:07:38,520 --> 00:07:42,080 loss, often garner attention. 89 00:07:42,080 --> 00:07:48,000 Commonly reported effects include gastrointestinal upset, nausea, and stomach pain, which typically 90 00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:50,120 resolve within days. 91 00:07:50,120 --> 00:07:56,400 However, some users may experience more serious issues, like muscle loss, which can impact 92 00:07:56,400 --> 00:07:59,040 metabolic health. 93 00:07:59,040 --> 00:08:03,640 Changes in menstrual cycles may also occur, likely due to weight loss rather than the 94 00:08:03,640 --> 00:08:05,640 drug itself. 95 00:08:05,640 --> 00:08:12,080 Less common but severe side effects include pancreatitis and allergic reactions. 96 00:08:12,080 --> 00:08:16,680 Pregnant or breastfeeding individuals should avoid this medication. 97 00:08:16,680 --> 00:08:23,000 Consulting a doctor about potential interactions and managing side effects is crucial. 98 00:08:23,000 --> 00:08:29,420 In business news, Bitcoin has experienced significant volatility this week, recently 99 00:08:29,420 --> 00:08:35,680 rebounding above $60,000 per Bitcoin after a sharp decline. 100 00:08:35,680 --> 00:08:40,800 Analysts at JP Morgan predict a debasement trade could drive further price increases 101 00:08:40,800 --> 00:08:44,000 leading into the U.S. election. 102 00:08:44,000 --> 00:08:49,480 Michael Saylor, founder and executive chairman of MicroStrategy, revealed his company's 103 00:08:49,480 --> 00:08:56,680 ambitious plan to evolve into a Bitcoin investment bank, aiming to acquire over $100 billion 104 00:08:56,680 --> 00:08:58,680 in Bitcoin. 105 00:08:58,680 --> 00:09:03,560 Saylor believes Bitcoin is the most valuable asset in the world and predicts its price 106 00:09:03,560 --> 00:09:08,720 could reach $13 million by 2045. 107 00:09:08,720 --> 00:09:15,160 In crypto movement, Bitcoin is just over $67,100. 108 00:09:15,160 --> 00:09:18,880 Ethereum is just over $2,600. 109 00:09:18,880 --> 00:09:24,720 And Solana is $155. 110 00:09:24,720 --> 00:09:28,140 Moving on to a more local vibe. 111 00:09:28,140 --> 00:09:34,080 In

tell them, Sunny Morning sent you by. 120 00:10:11,960 --> 00:10:15,680 And now, back to the show. 121 00:10:15,680 --> 00:10:17,560 Let's talk science. 122 00:10:17,560 --> 00:10:22,600 In a groundbreaking study, scientists have discovered that mice may possess ultrasonic 123 00:10:22,600 --> 00:10:28,880 powers, using sound to manipulate nanoparticles and enhance their sense of smell. 124 00:10:28,880 --> 00:10:34,200 Traditionally, these rodents were thought to use ultrasonic vocalizations solely for 125 00:10:34,200 --> 00:10:35,200 courtship. 126 00:10:35,200 --> 00:10:41,760 However, bioacoustics experts observed that mice sniff after producing these sounds, 127 00:10:41,760 --> 00:10:45,080 suggesting a more complex function. 128 00:10:45,080 --> 00:10:50,040 This phenomenon, described as creating new pathways of information, could reshape our 129 00:10:50,040 --> 00:10:55,720 understanding of animal communication and provide insights into manipulating nanoparticles 130 00:10:55,720 --> 00:10:57,800 with sound. 131 00:10:57,800 --> 00:11:03,960 As Jessica Joe from Harvard University notes, mice play a crucial role in biological research, 132 00:11:03,960 --> 00:11:07,680 potentially leading to significant medical advancements. 133 00:11:07,680 --> 00:11:13,000 Entertainment news. 134 00:11:13,000 --> 00:11:18,560 BetaFilm has unveiled a thrilling trailer for Rise of the Raven, an epic 10-part drama 135 00:11:18,560 --> 00:11:24,160 series centered on the pivotal 15th century battle of Belgrade. 136 00:11:24,160 --> 00:11:29,720 The show will have its world premiere at Nipcom in Cannes on October 22nd. 137 00:11:29,720 --> 00:11:35,240 Based on Ben Moore's novels, it chronicles the heroic Gionno Sunietti, who halted the 138 00:11:35,240 --> 00:11:39,800 Ottoman advance in 1456. 139 00:11:39,800 --> 00:11:45,720 Produced by veteran Robert Lantos, the series boasts an impressive budget, aiming for authenticity 140 00:11:45,720 --> 00:11:49,000 by honoring the era's languages. 141 00:11:49,000 --> 00:11:55,040 With stunning period detail, Rise of the Raven promises an engaging portrayal of history, 142 00:11:55,040 --> 00:11:56,760 treachery and love. 143 00:11:56,760 --> 00:12:02,320 Well, alrighty folks, it's time for the quote of the day. 144 00:12:02,320 --> 00:12:09,560 And today, our quote comes from the Albanian humanitarian and missionary, Mother Teresa. 145 00:12:09,560 --> 00:12:10,560 And she said, 146 00:12:10,560 --> 00:12:17,480 I have found the paradox that if you love until it hurts, there can be no more hurt, 147 00:12:17,480 --> 00:12:20,720 only more love. 148 00:12:20,720 --> 00:12:23,320 And that's a wrap for this morning. 149 00:12:23,320 --> 00:12:29,360 You can
