1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:06,960 Good morning and a warm welcome to your show, Sunny Mornings in Boston. 2 00:00:06,960 --> 00:00:11,600 I'm your host Melissa and it's Tuesday, April 23rd. 3 00:00:11,600 --> 00:00:16,000 Coming up on today's show, we'll get into the weather report, then we'll jump into 4 00:00:16,000 --> 00:00:23,380 some local news and a few interesting happenings in business, science and entertainment. 5 00:00:23,380 --> 00:00:30,120 At first, you'll be interested to know, 19 years ago, today in 2005. 6 00:00:30,120 --> 00:00:37,080 The first YouTube video ever, Me at the Zoo, was uploaded by co-founder Jod Perimz. 7 00:00:37,080 --> 00:00:42,560 Approximately one year later, the site had some 100 million videos. 8 00:00:42,560 --> 00:00:47,080 Today there are over 14 billion videos on YouTube. 9 00:00:47,080 --> 00:00:48,800 So now you know. 10 00:00:48,800 --> 00:00:51,920 And now you know what time it is. 11 00:00:51,920 --> 00:00:54,640 It's time for the weather report. 12 00:00:54,640 --> 00:00:57,080 In the Boston area. 13 00:00:57,080 --> 00:01:03,240 This morning it's sunny and feels like 35 degrees, with 4 mile per hour wind. 14 00:01:03,240 --> 00:01:10,380 The sunset will take place at 7.35 and it will rise again tomorrow at 5.48. 15 00:01:10,380 --> 00:01:15,880 It looks like we're in for a sunny day with a high near 62 and wind around 6 to 14 mile 16 00:01:15,880 --> 00:01:16,880 per hour. 17 00:01:16,880 --> 00:01:17,880 Tonight. 18 00:01:17,880 --> 00:01:22,680 It will be cloudy with a low around 42. 19 00:01:22,680 --> 00:01:28,280 For all you beach runners out there, the first low tide Tuesday will be at 6 a.m. with another 20 00:01:28,280 --> 00:01:31,240 low tide at 6 p.m. 21 00:01:31,240 --> 00:01:38,960 The new shore buoy at Cape Cod Bay reads 46 degrees for the water temperature. 22 00:01:38,960 --> 00:01:40,920 Looking ahead in the weather. 23 00:01:40,920 --> 00:01:49,000 Wednesday will see showers likely mainly between 10 a.m. and 2 p.m. with a high near 59 degrees. 24 00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:54,840 Wednesday night turns partly cloudy and much colder with a low around 33. 25 00:01:54,840 --> 00:01:59,480 Thursday and Friday will be sunny with highs in the mid 50s. 26 00:01:59,480 --> 00:02:03,640 Thursday night will be mostly clear with a low around 35. 27 00:02:03,640 --> 00:02:07,400 Bonjour, food enthusiasts. 28 00:02:07,400 --> 00:02:13,080 This podcast is brought to you by Versailles Cafe and Pastries in Encinitas. 29 00:02:13,080 --> 00:02:19,480 Nestled on El Camino Real South, just north of Encinitas Boulevard, this cafe is a haven 30 00:02:19,480 --> 00:02:22,280 for culinary delights. 31 00:02:22,280 --> 00:02:27,840 Indulge in their amazing eggs Benedict or their gluten free crepes. 32 00:02:27,840 --> 00:02:32,600 You can grab a panini for lunch or just breeze on through to get your morning coffee. 33 00:02:32,600 --> 00:02:36,600 They are open every day from 8 to 5. 34 00:02:36,600 --> 00:02:40,040 Just stop on by and don't forget to tell them. 35 00:02:40,040 --> 00:02:43,480 Sunny mornings send you. 36 00:02:43,480 --> 00:02:45,800 In local news. 37 00:02:45,800 --> 00:02:52,080 Starting in May, the MBTA will implement significant service disruptions across Boston to facilitate 38 00:02:52,080 --> 00:02:55,520 essential infrastructure improvements. 39 00:02:55,520 --> 00:03:01,920 Key changes include the suspension of red line service between Park Street and JFK UMass 40 00:03:01,920 --> 00:03:08,080 as well as Park Street to Ashman Station each night from May 1st through the 9th. 41 00:03:08,080 --> 00:03:13,240 Additionally, the orange line will see closures from Wellington to North Station at various 42 00:03:13,240 --> 00:03:16,080 intervals throughout the month. 43 00:03:16,080 --> 00:03:21,400 Commuters should also note weekend suspensions on the Kingston, Middleborough and Green Bush 44 00:03:21,400 --> 00:03:26,280 commuter rail lines between South Station and Braintree. 45 00:03:26,280 --> 00:03:31,600 These interruptions are part of ongoing efforts to enhance system reliability and service 46 00:03:31,600 --> 00:03:37,640 quality. 47 00:03:37,640 --> 00:03:39,720 Now on to sports. 48 00:03:39,720 --> 00:03:45,000 The Denver Broncos acquisition of Zach Wilson from the New York Jets offers a strategic 49 00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:51,120 safeguard in their quarterback roster, especially after releasing Russell Wilson. 50 00:03:51,120 --> 00:03:56,080 This low cost trade provides the Broncos with additional flexibility, especially if the 51 00:03:56,080 --> 00:04:00,560 draft doesn't favor them with top quarterback prospects. 52 00:04:00,560 --> 00:04:05,240 Despite his mixed performance with the Jets, Zach Wilson's arrival allows the Broncos 53 00:04:05,240 --> 00:04:10,380 to consider other positions of need with their 12th pick in the draft. 54 00:04:10,380 --> 00:04:15,160 This move underscores a cautious approach to rebuilding their QB lineup, hinting they 55 00:04:15,160 --> 00:04:21,280 might not target a quarterback in the first round unless the perfect fit emerges. 56 00:04:21,280 --> 00:04:23,520 In local sports. 57 00:04:23,520 --> 00:04:29,080 The Bruins at home in game two lost to the Maple Leafs 3-2. 58 00:04:29,080 --> 00:04:32,140 That series is now tied one to one. 59 00:04:32,140 --> 00:04:36,000 Game three is on Wednesday in Toronto. 60 00:04:36,000 --> 00:04:42,900 And tonight, the Red Sox are on the road in Cleveland to take on the Guardians. 61 00:04:42,900 --> 00:04:49,920 In top news, recent research has revealed that Uranus and Neptune, previously thought 62 00:04:49,920 --> 00:04:55,760 to be primarily composed of water ice, may contain significantly more methane ice than 63 00:04:55,760 --> 00:04:57,580 expected. 64 00:04:57,580 --> 00:05:04,280 This finding challenges the conventional understanding of these distant ice giants' makeup. 65 00:05:04,280 --> 00:05:09,400 Scientists from the Technion Israel Institute of Technology suggest that interactions between 66 00:05:09,400 --> 00:05:15,560 organic-rich planetesimals and the planet's hydrogen-helium atmospheres under high temperatures 67 00:05:15,560 --> 00:05:22,760 and pressures during early planetary development could produce a substantial methane ice layer. 68 00:05:22,760 --> 00:05:27,640 This layer could constitute up to 10% of the planet's masses, altering our view of their 69 00:05:27,640 --> 00:05:30,760 composition and formation. 70 00:05:30,760 --> 00:05:36,680 This hypothesis is based on thousands of computer simulations modeling the interiors of Uranus 71 00:05:36,680 --> 00:05:44,740 and Neptune, pointing to a need for a dedicated space mission to verify these findings. 72 00:05:44,740 --> 00:05:47,360 In business news. 73 00:05:47,360 --> 00:05:53,920 During Bitcoin's successful halving event, cryptocurrency-related stocks, including MicroStrategy 74 00:05:53,920 --> 00:05:59,360 and Coinbase, experienced substantial gains. 75 00:05:59,360 --> 00:06:05,640 MicroStrategy's stock jumped over 12%, bolstered by its significant Bitcoin holdings and anticipation 76 00:06:05,640 --> 00:06:08,720 of further acquisitions. 77 00:06:08,720 --> 00:06:16,160 Coinbase's shares also rose over 5%, driven by the growth of USDcoin, a stablecoin it co-developed, 78 00:06:16,160 --> 00:06:20,800 which has seen its market cap increase to $34 billion. 79 00:06:20,800 --> 00:06:27,560 Additionally, stocks of mining companies like Riot Platform and Hud8 corporations soared, 80 00:06:27,560 --> 00:06:32,560 reflecting the positive market response to the halving, which typically reduces the reward 81 00:06:32,560 --> 00:06:38,980 for mining new blocks, thereby decreasing the rate at which new Bitcoins are generated. 82 00:06:38,980 --> 00:06:44,480 In crypto movement, Bitcoin is $67,000. 83 00:06:44,480 --> 00:06:47,720 Bitcoin is just over $3,200. 84 00:06:47,720 --> 00:06:53,120 And Solana is $157. 85 00:06:53,120 --> 00:06:55,400 Moving on to a more local vibe. 86 00:06:55,400 --> 00:07:02,160 In our community spotlight on health and wellness, we are working with a national Pilates studio 87 00:07:02,160 --> 00:07:06,360 to bring you some free classes, so listen up. 88 00:07:06,360 --> 00:07:11,040 Check out Club Pilates with several locations in the Boston area. 89 00:07:11,040 --> 00:07:16,700 Pilates presents a comprehensive wellness approach, cultivating

00:07:48,080 Archaeologists have unearthed evidence of ancient human habitation within a lava tube 98 00:07:48,080 --> 00:07:53,460 in Saudi Arabia, showcasing our ancestors' adaptability. 99 00:07:53,460 --> 00:07:59,200 The Amjersan lava tube, which stretches nearly a mile, served as a refuge from the harsh 100 00:07:59,200 --> 00:08:04,700 desert conditions, offering a cooler environment for its occupants. 101 00:08:04,700 --> 00:08:10,840 This site, which dates back at least 7,000 years, contained human and animal bones, stone 102 00:08:10,840 --> 00:08:17,040 tools, and even a piece of pottery, indicating intermittent use possibly linked to pastoral 103 00:08:17,040 --> 00:08:19,280 migration routes. 104 00:08:19,280 --> 00:08:24,460 This discovery at Amjersan not only highlights a unique form of ancient dwelling, but also 105 00:08:24,460 --> 00:08:29,600 contributes to our understanding of human migration and settlement patterns in the Arabian 106 00:08:29,600 --> 00:08:30,600 Peninsula. 107 00:08:30,600 --> 00:08:36,200 And in entertainment news. 108 00:08:36,200 --> 00:08:41,420 The latest Deadpool and Wolverine trailer showcases a downtrodden Logan grappling with 109 00:08:41,420 --> 00:08:47,720 rejection and malfunctioning claws, interrupted by Deadpool, recruiting him for a multiversal 110 00:08:47,720 --> 00:08:51,800 mission hinted at in previous teasers. 111 00:08:51,800 --> 00:08:58,360 This mission appears linked to potential universe-ending threats, possibly connected to secret wars. 112 00:08:58,360 --> 00:09:04,220 The trailer introduces Cassandra Nova as a significant adversary with a plot revolving 113 00:09:04,220 --> 00:09:09,520 around the survival and legacy of these characters within the multiverse. 114 00:09:09,520 --> 00:09:15,840 The mix of humor, action, and existential stakes sets the stage for a dynamic exploration 115 00:09:15,840 --> 00:09:18,840 of their challenges. 116 00:09:18,840 --> 00:09:23,560 Well alrighty folks, it's time for the quote of the day. 117 00:09:23,560 --> 00:09:27,840 And today, our quote comes from the founder of YouTube. 118 00:09:27,840 --> 00:09:51,200 And here it is, the first ever YouTube video. 119 00:09:51,200 --> 00:09:53,880 And that's a wrap for this morning. 120 00:09:53,880 --> 00:10:00,100 You can check out our Instagram,
