This monumental achievement not only showcased 00:00:47.939 --> 00:00:51.159 human ingenuity and determination, but also paved 00:00:51.159 --> 00:00:53.840 the way for the future of aviation, inspiring 00:00:53.840 --> 00:00:56.679 countless individuals to reach for the skies. 00:00:58.030 --> 00:01:02.689 So now you know.

In local 00:02:54.379 --> 00:02:57.960 news, in a significant announcement, Governor 00:02:57.960 --> 00:03:02.219 Maura Healey revealed plans to close all 32 hotel 00:03:02.219 --> 00:03:05.900 shelters in Massachusetts this summer ahead of 00:03:05.900 --> 00:03:09.939 the previous deadline of December 2025. This 00:03:09.939 --> 00:03:12.680 move marks a dramatic decline from 100 shelters 00:03:12.680 --> 00:03:16.379 at their peak in the summer of 2023, representing 00:03:16.379 --> 00:03:21.080 a 68 % reduction. Healy attributed this success 00:03:21.080 --> 00:03:24.319 to reforms aimed at reducing caseloads and costs, 00:03:24.560 --> 00:03:27.659 including job training and increased case management. 00:03:28.300 --> 00:03:31.400 However, critics highlight the hotel system as 00:03:31.400 --> 00:03:34.719 a colossal human rights disaster, citing poor 00:03:34.719 --> 00:03:37.439 conditions and substantial costs to taxpayers, 00:03:37.759 --> 00:03:48.639 estimated at $4 billion. Now on to sports. Paige 00:03:48.639 --> 00:03:51.599 Beckers showcased impressive skills in her second 00:03:51.599 --> 00:03:54.659 game with the Wings against the Seattle Storm, 00:03:54.879 --> 00:03:58.240 matching notable statistics achieved by Kaitlyn 00:03:58.240 --> 00:04:03.419 Clark. In a 79 -71 loss, Beckers recorded 19 00:04:03.419 --> 00:04:08.039 points, 8 assists, and 5 rebounds. The last rookie 00:04:08.039 --> 00:04:10.539 to achieve such numbers in a game was Clark last 00:04:10.539 --> 00:04:13.960 season, accomplishing this 12 times, according 00:04:13.960 --> 00:04:17.819 to StatMamba. Beckers shot seven for 14 from 00:04:17.819 --> 00:04:22.000 the floor, adding two steals and a block. Although 00:04:22.000 --> 00:04:24.000 the Wings are still seeking their first win, 00:04:24.279 --> 00:04:27.240 Beckers is finding her rhythm, hoping for success 00:04:27.240 --> 00:04:31.439 similar to Clark's journey last season. In local 00:04:31.439 --> 00:04:35.439 sports. Last night at Fenway, the Sox beat the 00:04:35.439 --> 00:04:40.720 Mets 3 -1. Jaron Duran's double and triple drove 00:04:40.720 --> 00:04:44.339 in two, while Trevor Story's infield single added 00:04:44.339 --> 00:04:48.269 another. The Sox tallied nine hits, while the 00:04:48.269 --> 00:04:52.589 Mets managed eight. Wilson snagged the win, Chapman 00:04:52.589 --> 00:04:56.790 earned the save. The Sox now stand at 24 -25, 00:04:57.350 --> 00:05:01.829 showing promise at Fenway. Tonight, the Sox take 00:05:01.829 --> 00:05:05.050 on the Mets at Fenway for Game 2 of this three 00:05:05.050 --> 00:05:09.990 -game series.

In top news, 00:05:21.720 --> 00:05:25.819 recent studies reveal that diphenhydramine, a 00:05:25.819 --> 00:05:28.920 common over -the -counter medication, may significantly 00:05:28.920 --> 00:05:32.220 raise the risk of dementia and other cognitive 00:05:32.220 --> 00:05:35.839 impairments. Originally approved for allergy 00:05:35.839 --> 00:05:39.040 relief, it is now often used to treat insomnia 00:05:39.040 --> 00:05:43.269 and cold symptoms. However, experts warn that 00:05:43.269 --> 00:05:45.970 prolonged use can lead to serious side effects, 00:05:46.189 --> 00:05:49.610 such as memory impairment, weight gain, and diminished 00:05:49.610 --> 00:05:54.029 cognitive function. Notably, those using diphenhydramine 00:05:54.029 --> 00:05:57.790 daily for more than three years face a 54 % higher 00:05:57.790 --> 00:06:01.930 risk of developing dementia. With safer alternatives 00:06:01.930 --> 00:06:05.670 available, health professionals recommend reconsidering 00:06:05.670 --> 00:06:10.930 its routine use for long -term relief.

This closure 00:06:48.220 --> 00:06:50.959 follows a trend of downsizing in the wine industry, 00:06:51.199 --> 00:06:53.920 with several major companies announcing similar 00:06:53.920 --> 00:06:57.079 actions this year amid a global wine downturn. 00:06:57.759 --> 00:07:03.019 In crypto movement, Bitcoin is up 2 % to about 00:07:03.019 --> 00:07:09.709 $106 ,000.

The chatbot included wording 00:08:19.689 --> 00:08:22.649 errors in a citation, which made it appear as 00:08:22.649 --> 00:08:26.970 if a genuine article did not exist. This occurred 00:08:26.970 --> 00:08:29.790 during a defense against claims from music publishers 00:08:29.790 --> 00:08:32.990 regarding the use of copyrighted lyrics for training 00:08:32.990 --> 00:08:36.559 Claude.
