00:07:07,000 --> 00:07:10,040 as mortgage rate buy-downs. 88 00:07:10,040 --> 00:07:21,920 In crypto movement, Bitcoin is just over $67,100, Ethereum is just over $2,600, and Solana is 89 00:07:21,920

100 00:08:13,920 --> 00:08:15,760 Let's talk science. 101 00:08:15,760 --> 00:08:20,800 The debate surrounding Pluto's status as a planet remains unresolved since its demotion 102 00:08:20,800 --> 00:08:26,040 in 2006 by the International Astronomical Union. 103 00:08:26,040 --> 00:08:31,540 The definition of a planet has evolved from ancient times, where wandering stars included 104 00:08:31,540 --> 00:08:35,960 the sun and the moon, to more modern classifications. 105 00:08:35,960 --> 00:08:42,520 The discovery of Eris in 2005 prompted the IAU to define planets, leading to the conclusion 106 00:08:42,520 --> 00:08:47,600 that Pluto, failing to clear its orbit, is a dwarf planet. 107 00:08:47,600 --> 00:08:52,280 While some argue for a clearer definition, the complexity of our solar system suggests 108 00:08:52,280 --> 00:08:58,320 that these imperfect classifications may need to be revised as we learn more. 109 00:08:58,320 --> 00:09:03,120 And in entertainment news. 110 00:09:03,120 --> 00:09:09,440 Netflix has officially confirmed the cast for Season 2 of the popular revenge series, 111 00:09:09,440 --> 00:09:17,760 Beef, leaving the new season are Oscar Isaac, Carey Mulligan, Charles Melton, and Kayleigh 112 00:09:17,760 --> 00:09:18,760 Spany. 113 00:09:18,760 --> 00:09:23,040 The series will consist of eight half-hour episodes and revolves around a young couple 114 00:09:23,040 --> 00:09:28,440 who witnesses a troubling altercation between their boss and his wife, setting off a series 115 00:09:28,440 --> 00:09:32,640 of manipulative moves within a country club. 116 00:09:32,640 --> 00:09:38,080 Kayleigh Spany described the season 2 script as crazy and expressed her excitement for 117 00:09:38,080 --> 00:09:40,040 the project. 118 00:09:40,040

alrighty folks, it's time for the quote of the day. 121 00:09:53,400 --> 00:09:59,400 And today, our quote comes from the civil rights leader, Martin Luther King Jr. 122 00:09:59,400 --> 00:10:00,400 And he said, 123 00:10:00,400 --> 00:10:08,120 Love is the only force capable of transforming an enemy into a friend. 124 00:10:08,120 --> 00:10:10,800 And that's a wrap for this morning. 125
