00:00:21.640 --> 00:00:24.719
<v Speaker 2>She'll be getting an update on the recovery from Hurricane Heleene,

6
00:00:25.079 --> 00:00:28.640
<v Speaker 2>with a catastrophic trail of destruction. There is a local

7
00:00:28.679 --> 00:00:29.839
<v Speaker 2>effort to send.

8
00:00:29.600 --> 00:00:33.399
<v Speaker 3>Relief from hand sanitizer to bales of hay and every

9
00:00:33.439 --> 00:00:37.280
<v Speaker 3>single item need in between. Towns around Massachusetts are coming

10
00:00:37.320 --> 00:00:41.039
<v Speaker 3>together by the trailer loaves to help families impacted by

11
00:00:41.119 --> 00:00:41.920
<v Speaker 3>Hurricane Helene.

12
00:00:42.000 --> 00:00:44.799
<v Speaker 2>They're in need of basically every basic life necessity.

13
00:00:45.119 --> 00:00:47.679
<v Speaker 3>In West Bridgewater, the police station garage has been turned

14
00:00:47.719 --> 00:00:51.200
<v Speaker 3>into a local command center for items being donated by residents.

15
00:00:52.759 --> 00:00:55.880
<v Speaker 3>Sergeant Jonathan Craven says they've been coordinating with the North

16
00:00:55.920 --> 00:00:57.119
<v Speaker 3>Carolina Highway Patrol.

17
00:00:57.119 --> 00:00:59.320
<v Speaker 4>Of the support that we've received has been amazing.

18
00:00:59.640 --> 00:01:01.520
<v Speaker 2>Our off serves have been coming in off duty to

19
00:01:01.560 --> 00:01:02.280
<v Speaker 2>help sort.

20
00:01:02.399 --> 00:01:04.480
<v Speaker 5>Have more subtize have been delivered yet.

21
00:01:04.640 --> 00:01:07.560
<v Speaker 3>Heather and Cannon came to donate with her eleven year

22
00:01:07.560 --> 00:01:08.280
<v Speaker 3>old daughter, Kayley.

23
00:01:08.519 --> 00:01:11.560
<v Speaker 4>We're bringing First eight kits, personal little First eight kits

24
00:01:11.560 --> 00:01:16.000
<v Speaker 4>that they can hand out and also personal toiletry items

25
00:01:16.079 --> 00:01:17.799
<v Speaker 4>that come in a little kit for them as well.

26
00:01:18.000 --> 00:01:22.280
<v Speaker 2>WBZTV's Paul Burton reports for the hardest hit homeowners, paying

27
00:01:22.319 --> 00:01:25.079
<v Speaker 2>for the damage from Helene is becoming a nightmare of

28
00:01:25.120 --> 00:01:28.079
<v Speaker 2>its own. Insurance professionals and experts of long worn that

29
00:01:28.200 --> 00:01:32.000
<v Speaker 2>home insurance typically doesn't cover flood damage, leaving a FEMA

30
00:01:32.040 --> 00:01:35.359
<v Speaker 2>program as the primary provider. Experts say it's likely that

31
00:01:35.640 --> 00:01:41.200
<v Speaker 2>entire neighborhoods will never be rebuilt. Boston's hospitality sector is

32
00:01:41.280 --> 00:01:44.920
<v Speaker 2>due for serious disruption, with thousands of hotel workers hitting

33
00:01:44.959 --> 00:01:47.879
<v Speaker 2>the picket lines imminently. We are still waiting for word

34
00:01:47.920 --> 00:01:50.719
<v Speaker 2>from the union, which represents close to five thousand workers

35
00:01:50.719 --> 00:01:54.359
<v Speaker 2>across thirty six hotels in Boston and Cambridge. There have

36
00:01:54.439 --> 00:01:58.400
<v Speaker 2>been three temporary walkouts at some hotels starting last month,

37
00:01:58.439 --> 00:02:00.760
<v Speaker 2>but this time around the union is warning of an

38
00:02:00.799 --> 00:02:05.120
<v Speaker 2>all out indefinite strike. It's been a months long deadlock

39
00:02:05.239 --> 00:02:08.759
<v Speaker 2>in contract negotiations. As we watch for developments, stay with

40
00:02:08.800 --> 00:02:12.639
<v Speaker 2>the WBZ News Radio for the very latest. One month

41
00:02:12.680 --> 00:02:15.719
<v Speaker 2>to go now till the presidential election and former President

42
00:02:15.800 --> 00:02:18.719
<v Speaker 2>Trump soon is returning to the site where a gunman

43
00:02:18.800 --> 00:02:23.719
<v Speaker 2>tried to assassinate him in July. CBS's Chiliicasee Adelais says

44
00:02:23.759 --> 00:02:26.000
<v Speaker 2>security is tight in Pennsylvania.

45
00:02:26.039 --> 00:02:29.439
<v Speaker 4>Anywhere from fifteen thousand to sixty thousand people could come

46
00:02:29.479 --> 00:02:31.879
<v Speaker 4>to the site today, the Butler Farm show Grounds. Local

47
00:02:31.960 --> 00:02:34.280
<v Speaker 4>and state police are helping out with that, and there's

48
00:02:34.280 --> 00:02:37.199
<v Speaker 4>also plenty of security here. There's caution tape on some

49
00:02:37.240 --> 00:02:40.439
<v Speaker 4>of the business's wood areas surrounding the farm show grounds.

50
00:02:40.439 --> 00:02:44.199
<v Speaker 2>Today, former President Trump is expected to speak in around

51
00:02:44.280 --> 00:02:47.840
<v Speaker 2>an hour. Jd Vance is now in Pennsylvania, but the

52
00:02:47.919 --> 00:02:51.560
<v Speaker 2>VP nominee was just in Glocester. He spoke to wealthy

53
00:02:51.560 --> 00:02:55.479
<v Speaker 2>donors at a private home raising funds for the Trump campaign. Tomorrow,

54
00:02:55.560 --> 00:02:59.599
<v Speaker 2>Transportation Secretary Pete Buddha Judge will be attending a Harris

55
00:02:59.599 --> 00:03:03.240
<v Speaker 2>fundr Uz brunch in Boston. And looking at the four

56
00:03:03.319 --> 00:03:06.719
<v Speaker 2>day forecast, it's clear tonight with a low round fifty

57
00:03:06.759 --> 00:03:10.039
<v Speaker 2>two Downtown. A lot of inland suburbs could see temps

58
00:03:10.039 --> 00:03:12.960
<v Speaker 2>in the forties. Tonight, cooler Tomorrow, we'll have times of

59
00:03:13.000 --> 00:03:15.439
<v Speaker 2>sun and clouds and temps in the mid upper sixties.

60
00:03:15.840 --> 00:03:18.919
<v Speaker 2>It's mostly cloudy, with a couple of showers late tomorrow night,

61
00:03:19.120 --> 00:03:21.479
<v Speaker 2>then a few spots of rain for Monday as well.

62
00:03:21.680 --> 00:03:24.479
<v Speaker 2>For the most part, it should be cloudy, breezy, and cool,

63
00:03:24.560 --> 00:03:28.159
<v Speaker 2>with a high near sixty sixty four and sunny to

64
00:03:28.199 --> 00:03:31.840
<v Speaker 2>partly cloudy on Tuesday. Right now in Boston, it's sixty

65
00:03:31.919 --> 00:03:35.879
<v Speaker 2>six degrees with sunshine and debreeze at four oh five.

66
00:03:37.000 --> 00:03:40.400
<v Speaker 2>It sounds like science fiction tech that can expose your

67
00:03:40.400 --> 00:03:43.719
<v Speaker 2>personal information just by taking a picture of you. Well,

68
00:03:43.759 --> 00:03:46.599
<v Speaker 2>a couple of local students are proving it's not fiction.

69
00:03:46.879 --> 00:03:50.599
<v Speaker 2>It's possible. WBZTV's Brandon Truett reports.

70
00:03:50.240 --> 00:03:53.479
<v Speaker 5>Harvard University students are known for being ahead of the game,

71
00:03:53.840 --> 00:03:56.719
<v Speaker 5>and and fu Win and Cain or Dafeo are living

72
00:03:56.919 --> 00:03:59.080
<v Speaker 5>up to the hype. You're a follow us Creed.

73
00:03:59.159 --> 00:04:01.319
<v Speaker 1>This is you're from Reagan County Academies.

74
00:04:01.479 --> 00:04:05.080
<v Speaker 5>Yeah. The two juniors have created software that pairs AI

75
00:04:05.120 --> 00:04:09.520
<v Speaker 5>facial recognition with public databases and with a single picture,

76
00:04:09.680 --> 00:04:12.719
<v Speaker 5>can pull up a person's name, phone number, address, and

77
00:04:12.800 --> 00:04:16.480
<v Speaker 5>digital history. It took them about a day to create it.

78
00:04:16.720 --> 00:04:18.480
<v Speaker 2>So we were just kind of like playing around, you know,

79
00:04:18.519 --> 00:04:21.920
<v Speaker 2>seeing you know, what are the possibilities of code?

80
00:04:21.959 --> 00:04:24.839
<v Speaker 5>The guys use the Meta ray bands from Facebook's parent company,

81
00:04:24.959 --> 00:04:27.759
<v Speaker 5>which have cameras right on the lens, but a phone

82
00:04:27.800 --> 00:04:30.959
<v Speaker 5>could do this too. That camera streams video back to

83
00:04:31.000 --> 00:04:34.560
<v Speaker 5>the software on their laptop, and using AI tools, it

84
00:04:34.720 --> 00:04:37.839
<v Speaker 5>runs a face through the program to gather private information

85
00:04:37.959 --> 00:04:40.439
<v Speaker 5>within about a minute and a half. They tried it

86
00:04:40.519 --> 00:04:41.720
<v Speaker 5>on some of their classmates.

87
00:04:42.160 --> 00:04:47.519
<v Speaker 2>Is your address for full value scary stuff. While there

88
00:04:47.519 --> 00:04:50.639
<v Speaker 2>are restrictions on how governments use this type of technology,

89
00:04:50.680 --> 00:04:54.920
<v Speaker 2>there are no restrictions on private citizens using it. There

90
00:04:54.959 --> 00:04:57.800
<v Speaker 2>are safety concerns for the upcoming high school hockey season

91
00:04:57.920 --> 00:05:01.319
<v Speaker 2>with a potential shortage of referee. Refs have been calling

92
00:05:01.319 --> 00:05:03.920
<v Speaker 2>for higher pay. The local chapter of the National Ice

93
00:05:03.920 --> 00:05:07.959
<v Speaker 2>Hockey Officials Association says in a recent poll of its members,

94
00:05:08.000 --> 00:05:10.120
<v Speaker 2>more than half of them said they are not planning

95
00:05:10.160 --> 00:05:12.600
<v Speaker 2>to work any high school games this year. The union

96
00:05:12.639 --> 00:05:16.240
<v Speaker 2>is calling for the MIAA to increase wages. Currently, refs

97
00:05:16.279 --> 00:05:19.040
<v Speaker 2>make around one hundred bucks for a high school varsity game.

98
00:05:19.480 --> 00:05:23.079
<v Speaker 2>The MIAA calling foul, saying the request should have come

99
00:05:23.199 --> 00:05:28.160
<v Speaker 2>during school's budgeting process. Friday night lights down in Georgia,

100
00:05:28.399 --> 00:05:32.279
<v Speaker 2>bringing a moment of healing to a community rocked by tragedy,

101
00:05:32.439 --> 00:05:33.680
<v Speaker 2>the stands were passed.

102
00:05:33.439 --> 00:05:35.319

104
00:05:38.040 --> 00:05:40.399
<v Speaker 1>first home game a month after two students and two

105
00:05:40.439 --> 00:05:44.079
<v Speaker 1>teachers died in a school shooting. Football coach Ricky Aspinwall

106
00:05:44.199 --> 00:05:46.279
<v Speaker 1>was one of the victims, leading the team at his

107
00:05:46.360 --> 00:05:48.120
<v Speaker 1>absence assistant coach Matt Bradley.

108
00:05:48.199 --> 00:05:49.600
<v Speaker 3>One of the hardest things that I've ever had deal

109
00:05:49.680 --> 00:05:50.199
<v Speaker 3>in my life.

110
00:05:50.199 --> 00:05:52.439
<v Speaker 1>Taylor Wheeler, a former student, brought her kids a law

111
00:05:52.560 --> 00:05:53.560
<v Speaker 1>It was very close.

112
00:05:53.360 --> 00:05:55.600
<v Speaker 2>To home and when I say that, I don't think you.

113
00:05:55.560 --> 00:05:56.920
