You'll be interested 00:00:13.599 --> 00:00:19.219 to know. 64 years ago today, in 1961, East Germany 00:00:19.219 --> 00:00:22.179 began constructing the Berlin Wall, a formidable 00:00:22.179 --> 00:00:26.480 barrier that divided East and West Berlin. This 00:00:26.480 --> 00:00:29.179 monumental structure stood as a stark symbol 00:00:29.179 --> 00:00:32.179 of the Cold War. separating families and communities 00:00:32.179 --> 00:00:36.200 for nearly three decades. Its eventual fall in 00:00:36.200 --> 00:00:39.560 1989 marked a triumphant moment of unity and 00:00:39.560 --> 00:00:42.560 freedom, inspiring the world with the resilience 00:00:42.560 --> 00:00:47.920 of the human spirit. So now you know. And now, 00:00:48.060 --> 00:00:54.799 it's time for the Surf Report. Wednesday in Encinitas 00:00:54.799 --> 00:00:58.880 and North County. It's looking clean this morning 00:00:58.880 --> 00:01:02.560 with waist to chest high sets rolling in. Weights 00:01:02.560 --> 00:01:05.760 hold around 4 to 5 plus feet throughout the morning, 00:01:05.900 --> 00:01:09.359 providing great conditions. Expect the winds 00:01:09.359 --> 00:01:13.260 to remain sideshore at 3 mph, keeping things 00:01:13.260 --> 00:01:17.459 smooth. As the day progresses, watch for a shift 00:01:17.459 --> 00:01:21.879 to onshore winds around 4 mph, adding some texture 00:01:21.879 --> 00:01:26.019 to the surface. Best time to ride is at 8 a .m. 00:01:26.329 --> 00:01:29.730 with a 2 -foot incoming low tide when the southwest 00:01:29.730 --> 00:01:33.870 swell is 3 feet at 15 seconds and the sideshore 00:01:33.870 --> 00:01:38.569 wind is 3 mph. The first low tide on Wednesday 00:01:38.569 --> 00:01:42.510 will be a half -foot at 6 .15 a .m., followed 00:01:42.510 --> 00:01:47.590 by a 5 -feet high tide at 12 .45. The nearshore 00:01:47.590 --> 00:01:51.409 buoy at Beacons reads 73 degrees for the water 00:01:51.409 --> 00:01:55.120 temperature. Thursday through Saturday features 00:01:55.120 --> 00:01:58.739 fluctuating conditions. Thursday starts with 00:01:58.739 --> 00:02:01.920 clean waves at 3 to 4 plus feet, transitioning 00:02:01.920 --> 00:02:06.379 to fair as winds shift. Friday sees choppy surf 00:02:06.379 --> 00:02:09.419 at 2 to 4 feet with increasing winds, making 00:02:09.419 --> 00:02:13.120 it less appealing. Saturday maintains similar 00:02:13.120 --> 00:02:16.939 choppy conditions at 2 to 3 plus feet, but improves 00:02:16.939 --> 00:02:19.020 slightly in the evening with fair conditions, 00:02:19.400 --> 00:02:24.349 offering a chance for mellow rides.

In a surprising 00:03:50.300 --> 00:03:53.099 twist, President Donald Trump's recent spending 00:03:53.099 --> 00:03:56.300 package, often criticized for its cuts to social 00:03:56.300 --> 00:03:59.599 services, also brings a significant boost to 00:03:59.599 --> 00:04:03.560 affordable housing in California. The bill increases 00:04:03.560 --> 00:04:06.719 the low -income housing tax credit, a vital funding 00:04:06.719 --> 00:04:09.159 source for affordable housing projects statewide, 00:04:09.479 --> 00:04:11.759 which advocates say could double the production 00:04:11.759 --> 00:04:15.569 of low -rent units over the next decade. Matt 00:04:15.569 --> 00:04:18.310 Schwartz, the president and CEO of the California 00:04:18.310 --> 00:04:21.389 Housing Partnership, emphasized that this change 00:04:21.389 --> 00:04:24.629 is a huge shot in the arm for a struggling sector. 00:04:25.410 --> 00:04:28.610 While challenges remain, including rising costs 00:04:28.610 --> 00:04:31.389 and funding shortages, experts are optimistic 00:04:31.389 --> 00:04:34.509 that California could see thousands of new affordable 00:04:34.509 --> 00:04:37.910 homes each year thanks to this unexpected support. 00:04:43.180 --> 00:04:47.600 Now on to sports. Major League Baseball has announced 00:04:47.600 --> 00:04:50.480 its postseason schedule for this season, confirming 00:04:50.480 --> 00:04:53.079 that the flexible start date for the World Series 00:04:53.079 --> 00:04:56.920 has been eliminated. This decision follows last 00:04:56.920 --> 00:04:59.279 year's attempt to accommodate potential early 00:04:59.279 --> 00:05:03.800 finishes, but it proved impractical. As a result, 00:05:04.100 --> 00:05:06.600 the World Series is now set to begin on Friday, 00:05:06.920 --> 00:05:10.759 October 24th, with a possible Game 7 on Saturday, 00:05:10.939 --> 00:05:14.939 November 1st.

San Diego finished 00:05:54.759 --> 00:05:58.759 with 10 hits and no errors. The Padres' record 00:05:58.759 --> 00:06:03.560 is now 68 -52. Tonight, the Padres clash with 00:06:03.560 --> 00:06:06.319 the Giants at Oracle Park in San Francisco for 00:06:06.319 --> 00:06:10.050 the final game of this series.

In top news, 00:06:30.009 --> 00:06:34.399 General Electric and United Nuclear. have reached 00:06:34.399 --> 00:06:37.439 a U .S. consent decree mandating a cleanup of 00:06:37.439 --> 00:06:40.459 uranium mine waste, estimated to cost nearly 00:06:40.459 --> 00:06:45.420 $63 million. This effort will take over a decade, 00:06:45.660 --> 00:06:49.180 focusing on sites in New Mexico and the Navajo 00:06:49.180 --> 00:06:52.480 Nation. The Justice Department announced that 00:06:52.480 --> 00:06:55.339 the companies will excavate approximately 1 million 00:06:55.339 --> 00:06:58.199 cubic yards of waste from the Northeast Church 00:06:58.199 --> 00:07:01.959 Rock Mine Superfund site. This mine operated 00:07:01.959 --> 00:07:06.939 from 1967 to 1982 and was a key source of uranium 00:07:06.939 --> 00:07:10.660 ore. The Environmental Protection Agency has 00:07:10.660 --> 00:07:13.819 previously mandated shorter -term cleanups, but 00:07:13.819 --> 00:07:16.339 risks remain for hazardous substance release. 00:07:17.259 --> 00:07:22.360 In business news, in a recent analysis, Zillow 00:07:22.360 --> 00:07:25.480 senior economist Orf de Waangri highlights why 00:07:25.480 --> 00:07:30.279 2025 may be a good time to buy a house. After 00:07:30.279 --> 00:07:33.819 years of rising prices, Zillow forecasts a zero. 00:07:34.480 --> 00:07:38.079 8 % drop in home values by year -end, marking 00:07:38.079 --> 00:07:42.139 the first decline since 2011. With high mortgage 00:07:42.139 --> 00:07:45.220 rates stifling competition and inventory increasing, 00:07:45.600 --> 00:07:49.959 buyers currently have more leverage. Devali advises 00:07:49.959 --> 00:07:52.519 against waiting for market timing, as mortgage 00:07:52.519 --> 00:07:56.730 rates can fluctuate unexpectedly. He notes that 00:07:56.730 --> 00:07:59.449 local markets vary with affordability improving 00:07:59.449 --> 00:08:02.850 in areas like Texas and Florida, despite rising 00:08:02.850 --> 00:08:06.850 insurance costs. Sellers sitting on substantial 00:08:06.850 --> 00:08:09.889 equity are less likely to rush into the market. 00:08:10.389 --> 00:08:15.550 In crypto movement, Bitcoin is unchanged at about 00:08:15.550 --> 00:08:22.829 $119 ,000.

CoreWeave's revenue has more than tripled, 00:09:27.600 --> 00:09:30.419 reflecting the soaring demand for artificial 00:09:30.419 --> 00:09:33.940 intelligence.

However, CoreWeave also 00:09:43.580 --> 00:09:49.330 faced a loss of $290 million. Chief Executive 00:09:49.330 --> 00:09:52.549 Michael Entrader noted the need to scale rapidly 00:09:52.549 --> 00:09:59.269 to meet this demand.

However, 00:10:32.340 --> 00:10:35.379 many exceptional independent films have struggled 00:10:35.379 --> 00:10:37.539 to find their audience due to limited releases. 00:10:38.440 --> 00:10:42.240 Among these, Little Prayer, On Swift Horses, 00:10:42.340 --> 00:10:46.179 Omaha, and My Dead Friend Zoe, showcase talent 00:10:46.179 --> 00:10:49.019 and storytelling deserving of recognition in 00:10:49.019 --> 00:10:53.820 a year filled with blockbuster hits.

And she 00:11:04.720 --> 00:11:09.070 said, Alone, we can do so little. Together we 00:11:09.070 --> 00:11:13.549 can do so much.
