WEBVTT 00:00:01.820 --> 00:00:04.639 Good morning, and a warm welcome to your show, 00:00:05.160 --> 00:00:09.140 Sunny Mornings in Encinitas. I'm your host, Melissa, 00:00:09.220 --> 00:00:13.439 and it's Wednesday, December 3rd. You'll be interested 00:00:13.439 --> 00:00:19.980 to know. 58 years ago, today, in 1967, a team 00:00:19.980 --> 00:00:22.539 led by South African surgeon Christian Barnard 00:00:22.539 --> 00:00:25.800 performed the first human heart transplant, replacing 00:00:25.800 --> 00:00:29.120 a failing heart with a donor organ in a complex 00:00:29.120 --> 00:00:32.780 surgical milestone. The achievement proved that 00:00:32.780 --> 00:00:35.479 organ replacement was possible and opened new 00:00:35.479 --> 00:00:38.600 paths for life -saving cardiac surgery worldwide. 00:00:40.280 --> 00:00:44.859 So now you know. And now it's time for the surf 00:00:44.859 --> 00:00:51.640 report. Wednesday in Encinitas. This morning 00:00:51.640 --> 00:00:54.420 it's looking clean with waves around four to 00:00:54.420 --> 00:00:57.880 six feet. Conditions stay steady through the 00:00:57.880 --> 00:01:00.740 morning, but by afternoon, these shift to fair 00:01:00.740 --> 00:01:04.420 as the wind picks up to onshore at around five 00:01:04.420 --> 00:01:08.180 to six miles per hour. Expect the swell to hold 00:01:08.180 --> 00:01:10.500 throughout the day before slightly decreasing 00:01:10.500 --> 00:01:15.200 late afternoon. Best time to ride is at 7 a .m. 00:01:15.280 --> 00:01:18.500 with a seven -foot high tide when the west swell 00:01:18.500 --> 00:01:22.319 is two and a half feet at 16 seconds and the 00:01:22.319 --> 00:01:26.370 offshore wind is one mile per hour. The first 00:01:26.370 --> 00:01:29.750 high tide on Wednesday will be 7 feet just before 00:01:29.750 --> 00:01:33.409 7 a .m. Followed by a minus 1 and a half foot 00:01:33.409 --> 00:01:38.030 low tide just before 2. The nearshore buoy at 00:01:38.030 --> 00:01:41.890 Beacons reads 64 degrees for the water temperature. 00:01:43.569 --> 00:01:45.969 Thursday features clean conditions with waves 00:01:45.969 --> 00:01:49.409 ranging from 3 to 4 feet. Ideal for catching 00:01:49.409 --> 00:01:53.519 some fun rides. Friday sees a drop to 1 to 2 00:01:53.519 --> 00:01:56.340 feet, maintaining clean conditions but lacking 00:01:56.340 --> 00:02:00.340 in size. Saturday holds steady at 2 feet with 00:02:00.340 --> 00:02:03.159 fair conditions, but expects some unsure winds 00:02:03.159 --> 00:02:06.180 in the afternoon, making it less favorable later 00:02:06.180 --> 00:02:11.000 in the day. This morning, it's cloudy and it 00:02:11.000 --> 00:02:15.240 feels like 60 degrees with no wind. The sunset 00:02:15.240 --> 00:02:18.580 will take place at 442, and it will rise again 00:02:18.580 --> 00:02:22.669 tomorrow at 639. It looks like we're in for a 00:02:22.669 --> 00:02:26.229 partly sunny day with a high near 62 and a light 00:02:26.229 --> 00:02:30.210 northeast wind up to 10 miles per hour. Tonight, 00:02:31.289 --> 00:02:34.150 expect partly cloudy skies with a low around 00:02:34.150 --> 00:02:39.590 51 and a gentle breeze. Looking ahead in the 00:02:39.590 --> 00:02:42.930 weather, Thursday through Sunday will be sunny 00:02:42.930 --> 00:02:46.030 with highs in the low 60s and northwest winds 00:02:46.030 --> 00:02:50.050 of 5 to 10 miles per hour on Thursday. Nights 00:02:50.050 --> 00:02:53.090 stay mostly clear with lows around 50 to 54. 00:02:54.270 --> 00:02:57.569 Bonjour, food enthusiasts. This podcast is brought 00:02:57.569 --> 00:03:01.430 to you by Versailles Cafe and Pastries in Encinitas. 00:03:02.189 --> 00:03:05.370 Nestled on El Camino Real South, just north of 00:03:05.370 --> 00:03:09.009 Encinitas Boulevard, this cafe is a haven for 00:03:09.009 --> 00:03:13.150 culinary delights.

They are open every 00:03:23.469 --> 00:03:27.789 day from 8 to 5. So stop on by and don't forget 00:03:27.789 --> 00:03:32.710 to tell them. Sunny mornings send you. In local 00:03:32.710 --> 00:03:36.409 news, the closely watched Case -Schiller index 00:03:36.409 --> 00:03:39.689 of national home prices shows a continued decline 00:03:39.689 --> 00:03:43.490 in San Diego amid a new equilibrium of minimal 00:03:43.490 --> 00:03:47.419 price growth. The latest report, released just 00:03:47.419 --> 00:03:50.580 before Thanksgiving, indicated local home prices 00:03:50.580 --> 00:03:54.400 falling almost 1 % in September, marking the 00:03:54.400 --> 00:03:58.680 fifth monthly decline. Nicholas Godek of S &P 00:03:58.680 --> 00:04:01.560 Dow Jones Indices stated September's monthly 00:04:01.560 --> 00:04:05.340 performance was uniformly weak, with all 20 tracked 00:04:05.340 --> 00:04:08.560 metros posting month -over -month declines before 00:04:08.560 --> 00:04:12.580 seasonal adjustment. Zillow noted that home shoppers 00:04:12.580 --> 00:04:15.460 this fall are experiencing some of the steepest 00:04:15.460 --> 00:04:19.019 price cuts in years. With San Diego notably among 00:04:19.019 --> 00:04:21.939 the five markets, see major price reductions. 00:04:27.540 --> 00:04:31.980 Now on to sports. NFL Red Zone has significantly 00:04:31.980 --> 00:04:36.000 increased commercials in Week 13. So much for 00:04:36.000 --> 00:04:39.649 commercial -free football. During its 7 -hour 00:04:39.649 --> 00:04:43.470 broadcast, Redzone aired 16 advertisements ranging 00:04:43.470 --> 00:04:48.050 from 15 to 20 seconds long. This is a notable 00:04:48.050 --> 00:04:51.009 increase from the 4 ads promised at this season's 00:04:51.009 --> 00:04:54.790 start. The telecast included 2 minutes of double 00:04:54.790 --> 00:04:57.790 -box advertisements split across game windows. 00:04:58.990 --> 00:05:02.269 In total, Redzone aired 16 elements of sponsored 00:05:02.269 --> 00:05:05.490 content for a combined 5 minutes and 10 seconds. 00:05:06.220 --> 00:05:09.680 Fans expressed frustration on social media, with 00:05:09.680 --> 00:05:13.699 some cancelling subscriptions. I did too, and 00:05:13.699 --> 00:05:18.060 I think it's time to send a message. In local 00:05:18.060 --> 00:05:22.040 sports, Mountain West football rankings for Week 00:05:22.040 --> 00:05:25.060 14 feature a new number one as their regular 00:05:25.060 --> 00:05:28.639 season concludes. This week's rankings highlight 00:05:28.639 --> 00:05:31.879 teams like the Rebels, who easily won their rivalry 00:05:31.879 --> 00:05:34.680 game and are heading to the Mountain West Championship 00:05:34.680 --> 00:05:38.819 game. New Mexico continues to impress, knocking 00:05:38.819 --> 00:05:42.600 out San Diego State from championship contention. 00:05:43.100 --> 00:05:46.019 San Diego State struggled in overtime, while 00:05:46.019 --> 00:05:48.959 Boise State returns to the championship despite 00:05:48.959 --> 00:05:52.800 inconsistencies. Hawaii is back in a bowl game, 00:05:53.079 --> 00:05:55.920 while Fresno State celebrates a strong season. 00:05:57.120 --> 00:06:00.000 Utah State faced challenges, and Air Force ended 00:06:00.000 --> 00:06:03.800 on a high note. Nevada needs to retain young 00:06:03.800 --> 00:06:06.899 talent. while Wyoming and San Jose state search 00:06:06.899 --> 00:06:10.620 for improvement. Colorado State now focuses on 00:06:10.620 --> 00:06:13.600 roster management after a disappointing season. 00:06:15.980 --> 00:06:19.759 In top news, how old is too old to shovel snow? 00:06:20.279 --> 00:06:24.360 Here is what hard experts say. As winter approaches, 00:06:24.800 --> 00:06:27.279 many people are preparing to shovel snow, which 00:06:27.279 --> 00:06:29.839 can be dangerous for those with pre -existing 00:06:29.839 --> 00:06:33.670 heart conditions. Dr. Barry Franklin noted that 00:06:33.670 --> 00:06:36.290 shoveling heavy snow can be more demanding on 00:06:36.290 --> 00:06:39.750 the heart than a treadmill stress test. Between 00:06:39.750 --> 00:06:45.209 1990 and 2006, nearly 200 ,000 adults were treated 00:06:45.209 --> 00:06:48.230 for snow shovel -related accidents, resulting 00:06:48.230 --> 00:06:53.569 in over 1 ,600 deaths. Dr. John Osborne advised 00:06:53.569 --> 00:06:57.050 that adults 65 and older should be more cautious, 00:06:57.350 --> 00:06:59.790 especially those with risk factors for heart 00:06:59.790 --> 00:07:05.250 disease. In business news, Harvard's significant 00:07:05.250 --> 00:07:08.209 wager on Bitcoin came just before a downturn 00:07:08.209 --> 00:07:11.470 in the cryptocurrency market. The university 00:07:11.470 --> 00:07:15.569 reported nearly $500 million in crypto holdings 00:07:15.569 --> 00:07:19.350 in its last quarterly report. Although Bitcoin 00:07:19.350 --> 00:07:22.910 rebounded recently, it has dropped over 20 % 00:07:22.910 --> 00:07:26.230 this quarter. Harvard could have avoided losses 00:07:26.230 --> 00:07:30.279 if it sold its holdings in early October. Currently, 00:07:30.319 --> 00:07:33.779 it stands to incur a potential 14 % loss on its 00:07:33.779 --> 00:07:37.480 shares. Despite the setback, these losses are 00:07:37.480 --> 00:07:40.439 negligible for Harvard's endowment, which totals 00:07:40.439 --> 00:07:45.000 $57 billion. This incident highlights the risks 00:07:45.000 --> 00:07:47.740 of institutional investment in cryptocurrencies. 00:07:49.139 --> 00:07:53.339 In crypto movement, Bitcoin is up 8 % to just 00:07:53.339 --> 00:07:59.519 under $94 ,000. Ethereum is up 10%. to just under 00:07:59.519 --> 00:08:08.339 $3 ,100. And at CACSRP is up 9 % to $2 .20. Moving 00:08:08.339 --> 00:08:12.939 on to a more local vibe. In our community spotlight 00:08:12.939 --> 00:08:16.000 on health and wellness, we are working with a 00:08:16.000 --> 00:08:18.720 national Pilates studio to bring you some free 00:08:18.720 --> 00:08:23.120 classes, so listen up.

And now, back to the show. Let's talk 00:08:59.519 --> 00:09:03.559 tech. Security researchers have discovered that 00:09:03.559 --> 00:09:06.919 Wi -Fi signals can be used to image environments 00:09:06.919 --> 00:09:11.240 and identify people with near 100 % accuracy. 00:09:12.440 --> 00:09:15.259 In the future, anyone who regularly walks past 00:09:15.259 --> 00:09:18.039 a cafe or restaurant with public Wi -Fi could 00:09:18.039 --> 00:09:22.330 be identified, even without a smartphone. Researchers 00:09:22.330 --> 00:09:25.210 at Karlsruhe Institute of Technology have found 00:09:25.210 --> 00:09:28.149 that commercially available Wi -Fi routers can 00:09:28.149 --> 00:09:31.350 recognize individuals based on signal changes 00:09:31.350 --> 00:09:35.429 from nearby devices. The propagation of Wi -Fi 00:09:35.429 --> 00:09:38.049 radio waves can create an image of the router's 00:09:38.049 --> 00:09:40.690 physical environment, similar to how cameras 00:09:40.690 --> 00:09:44.950 work. This technology poses a serious risk to 00:09:44.950 --> 00:09:47.769 personal privacy, as it could allow surveillance 00:09:47.769 --> 00:09:54.149 in public and private spaces. The Entertainment 00:09:54.149 --> 00:09:58.350 News. Netflix's proposed acquisition of Warner 00:09:58.350 --> 00:10:01.750 Bros. Discovery Studios and streaming unit is 00:10:01.750 --> 00:10:04.570 expected to lower streaming costs for consumers 00:10:04.570 --> 00:10:08.549 by bundling Netflix and HBO Max, according to 00:10:08.549 --> 00:10:12.029 sources familiar with the proposal. The vast 00:10:12.029 --> 00:10:15.690 majority of Netflix users also subscribe to HBO 00:10:15.690 --> 00:10:19.899 Max. In recent talks... Netflix argued that the 00:10:19.899 --> 00:10:22.679 combination would benefit consumers by reducing 00:10:22.679 --> 00:10:26.080 the cost of a bundled offering. This move aims 00:10:26.080 --> 00:10:28.980 to address potential regulatory concerns regarding 00:10:28.980 --> 00:10:32.679 consumer choice and pricing. If successful, the 00:10:32.679 --> 00:10:35.740 deal would expand Netflix's content library but 00:10:35.740 --> 00:10:38.659 may not significantly increase its market share. 00:10:39.879 --> 00:10:42.080 Analysts suggest that this combination could 00:10:42.080 --> 00:10:45.100 create a formidable competitor to other services. 00:10:46.679 --> 00:10:49.570 Well, all righty, folks. It's time for the quote 00:10:49.570 --> 00:10:53.610 of the day. And today, our quote comes from the 00:10:53.610 --> 00:10:56.870 American author and motivational speaker, Zig 00:10:56.870 --> 00:11:18.620 Ziglar. And he said, And that's a wrap for this 00:11:18.620 --> 00:11:22.139 morning. You can check out our Instagram, YouTube, 00:11:22.419 --> 00:11:25.620 and TikTok for some captivating aerial videos 00:11:25.620 --> 00:11:29.940 with local news and the surf reports. Have an 00:11:29.940 --> 00:11:32.659 amazing day, my good friends. We'll see you tomorrow 00:11:32.659 --> 00:11:36.000 with another episode of Sunny Mornings in Encinitas.
