00:01:59.709 --> 00:02:03.730
gooey at Beacons reads 68 degrees for the water

00:02:03.730 --> 00:02:07.430
temperature. Thursday through Saturday features

00:02:07.430 --> 00:02:10.870

Whitburn emphasized the need for smart decisions,

00:04:26.589 --> 00:04:29.569
as the building currently costs taxpayers $2

00:04:29.569 --> 00:04:34.709
.5 million annually. Despite concerns about asbestos,

00:04:34.769 --> 00:04:37.430
the project aims to provide low -income housing

00:04:37.430 --> 00:04:41.259
while generating revenue for the city. Construction

00:04:41.259 --> 00:04:44.860

deal to sign former Bayern Munich and German

00:05:00.279 --> 00:05:03.459
star Thomas Müller, according to sources from

00:05:03.459 --> 00:05:07.439
ESPN. To finalize this contract with the World

00:05:07.439 --> 00:05:10.379
Cup winner, the Whitecaps must first acquire

00:05:10.379 --> 00:05:13.500
Mueller's discovery rights from SC Cincinnati.

00:05:14.680 --> 00:05:18.060
Cincinnati holds these rights, but Mueller declined

00:05:18.060 --> 00:05:21.680
an offer to join them earlier this year. The

00:05:21.680 --> 00:05:24.139
Whitecaps are in the final stages of negotiating

00:05:24.139 --> 00:05:28.160
a trade, potentially exchanging up to $400 ,000

00:05:28.160 --> 00:05:32.800
in general allocation money. Mueller, who scored

00:05:32.800 --> 00:05:38.779
250 goals in 756 appearances for Bayern, is reportedly

00:05:38.779 --> 00:05:44.839

the Mets 7 -1, with Manny's impressive three

00:05:51.339 --> 00:05:54.439

00:05:54.500 --> 00:05:59.000
offense. Merrill contributed with two RBIs. while

00:05:59.000 --> 00:06:03.399
Marte scored New York's lone run. Manaya was

00:06:03.399 --> 00:06:06.279
solid, pitching five innings with just one earned

00:06:06.279 --> 00:06:10.079
run, securing the win as Budo took the loss for

00:06:10.079 --> 00:06:13.259
the Mets, conceding five runs over one -and -two

00:06:13.259 --> 00:06:17.379
-thirds innings. The Padres now stand at 59 -43.

00:06:18.579 --> 00:06:21.639
Tomorrow afternoon, the Padres host the Mets

00:06:21.639 --> 00:06:24.300
at Petco Park, looking to complete the three

00:06:24.300 --> 00:06:29.139
-game sweep. Hugh Darvish, with a 9 .18, earned

00:06:29.139 --> 00:06:32.480
run average, faces Clay Holmes. Who's unbeaten?

00:06:32.959 --> 00:06:37.420
First pitch is at 110 in sunny San Diego, with

00:06:37.420 --> 00:06:42.699
temperatures around 76 degrees. In top news,

00:06:42.980 --> 00:06:46.819
the Environmental Protection Agency has proposed

00:06:46.819 --> 00:06:49.500
to rescind the landmark endangerment finding,

00:06:49.759 --> 00:06:52.740
which identifies greenhouse gases as a threat

00:06:52.740 --> 00:06:56.480
to public health. This move would eliminate regulations

00:06:56.480 --> 00:06:59.259
on emissions from vehicles and power plants,

00:06:59.540 --> 00:07:02.240
undermining efforts to combat climate change.

00:07:02.939 --> 00:07:06.439
EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin stated that the

00:07:06.439 --> 00:07:09.399
agency lacks the authority to regulate greenhouse

00:07:09.399 --> 00:07:12.379
gases without explicit congressional approval.

00:07:13.300 --> 00:07:16.500
Critics argue this proposal disregards scientific

00:07:16.500 --> 00:07:20.319
consensus and could lead to a rise in high -polluting

00:07:20.319 --> 00:07:24.079
vehicles. Environmental groups plan to challenge

00:07:24.079 --> 00:07:27.160
the repeal, emphasizing the urgency of addressing

00:07:27.160 --> 00:07:30.339
climate -related disasters impacting American

00:07:30.339 --> 00:07:36.199
lives. In business news, the latest meme craze

00:07:36.199 --> 00:07:40.040
is sending a warning to Wall Street. Hectic trading

00:07:40.040 --> 00:07:42.939
in Krispy Kreme, Opendoor, rocket companies,

00:07:43.220 --> 00:07:47.079
and Kohl's, known collectively as Dork, signals

00:07:47.079 --> 00:07:49.800
a return to reckless overconfidence among investors.

00:07:51.079 --> 00:07:54.160
These stocks, smaller and less promising than

00:07:54.160 --> 00:07:58.579
giants like Netflix and Amazon. Calm have attracted

00:07:58.579 --> 00:08:02.040
individual buyers, often from social media platforms.

00:08:02.879 --> 00:08:06.100
This trend mirrors past phenomena with companies

00:08:06.100 --> 00:08:10.560
like GameStop and AMC. Goldman Sachs recently

00:08:10.560 --> 00:08:13.660
reported that speculative trading is at its highest

00:08:13.660 --> 00:08:16.639
since the dot -com bubble, suggesting that while

00:08:16.639 --> 00:08:19.920
exuberance may rise, Caution is advised before

00:08:19.920 --> 00:08:24.939
the music stops. In crypto movement, Bitcoin

00:08:24.939 --> 00:08:31.699
is unchanged at $118 ,000. Ethereum is up 1 %

00:08:31.699 --> 00:08:38.759
to just over $3 ,800. And XRP is up 1 % to $3

00:09:42.190 --> 00:09:44.570
T -Mobile has emerged with the fastest mobile

00:09:44.570 --> 00:09:49.950
network in 2025, scoring 74 .45 based on various

00:09:49.950 --> 00:09:53.049
metrics, including download and upload speeds.

00:09:53.809 --> 00:09:59.330
Verizon trailed at 65 .72 while AT &T lagged

00:09:59.330 --> 00:10:05.809
behind at 63 .16. T -Mobile dominated in 46 states

00:10:05.809 --> 00:10:08.830
while Verizon only excelled in North Dakota.

00:10:09.990 --> 00:10:13.110
Interestingly, despite T -Mobile's speed, Verizon

00:10:13.110 --> 00:10:15.830
was recognized for the best mobile network for

00:10:15.830 --> 00:10:19.970
streaming. Meanwhile, AT &T's fiber network was

00:10:19.970 --> 00:10:22.769

Wedding, as confirmed by The Hollywood Reporter.

00:10:37.320 --> 00:10:39.740
The project is currently in early development,

00:10:39.960 --> 00:10:42.639
with some attached to write, but not direct.

00:10:43.480 --> 00:10:46.720
The sequel will continue the story of Julianne

00:10:46.720 --> 00:10:49.600
and Michael, originally played by Julia Roberts

00:10:49.600 --> 00:10:52.480

00:10:56.740 --> 00:11:02.200

acclaimed Past Lives and the hit film The Materialists.

00:11:10.730 --> 00:11:14.110
Well, alrighty folks, it's time for the quote

00:11:14.110 --> 00:11:18.070
of the day. And today, our quote comes from the

00:11:18.070 --> 00:11:20.929
French writer and philosopher, Albert Camus.

00:11:21.870 --> 00:11:26.250
And he said, A happy person is not a person in

00:11:26.250 --> 00:11:29.029
a certain set of circumstances, but rather a

00:11:29.029 --> 00:11:33.350
person with a certain set of attitudes. And that's

00:11:33.350 --> 00:11:36.330
a wrap for this morning. You can check out our
