00:00:03.120 --> 00:00:09.279
<v Speaker 1>Kalaroga Shock Media. Hi there, I'm Johnny Mack with five

2
00:00:09.279 --> 00:00:11.720
<v Speaker 1>good news stories. It's been over a century since the

3
00:00:11.880 --> 00:00:15.240
<v Speaker 1>Titanic slipped beneath the waters of the North Atlantic, and

4
00:00:15.320 --> 00:00:17.920
<v Speaker 1>now a battle is underway to see what should happen

5
00:00:17.960 --> 00:00:20.960
<v Speaker 1>to the treasures recovered from the wreck. The company that

6
00:00:21.120 --> 00:00:24.559
<v Speaker 1>holds the salvage rights to the Titanic wants to auction

7
00:00:24.679 --> 00:00:29.800
<v Speaker 1>them off or MS Titanic Incorporated has spent decades recovering

8
00:00:29.800 --> 00:00:32.039
<v Speaker 1>objects from the wreck site. Thousands of items have been

9
00:00:32.039 --> 00:00:35.679
<v Speaker 1>brought to the surface, ranging from personal belongings and pieces

10
00:00:35.679 --> 00:00:38.200
<v Speaker 1>of the ship itself to everyday objects used by passengers

11
00:00:38.240 --> 00:00:41.960
<v Speaker 1>and crew. Until now, those artifacts have been largely displayed

12
00:00:41.960 --> 00:00:45.799
<v Speaker 1>in museums and traveling exhibitions, but court documents recently unsealed

13
00:00:45.840 --> 00:00:48.560
<v Speaker 1>revealed that the company is trying to auction off over

14
00:00:48.600 --> 00:00:52.439
<v Speaker 1>one hundred items. Among the objects reportedly being considered or

15
00:00:52.479 --> 00:00:54.960
<v Speaker 1>a bronze cherub, a necklace made of gold nuggets, and

16
00:00:55.000 --> 00:00:58.159
<v Speaker 1>a heart shaped pendant. Here's the debate. On one side,

17
00:00:58.240 --> 00:01:01.719
<v Speaker 1>some argue that recovered artifacts can help fund future expeditions

18
00:01:01.719 --> 00:01:06.319
<v Speaker 1>and keep public exhibitions operating. The other side, are historians, preservationists,

19
00:01:06.359 --> 00:01:08.760
<v Speaker 1>and some relatives of Titanic victims who view the wreck

20
00:01:08.840 --> 00:01:11.680
<v Speaker 1>site as something closer to a memorial than a treasure trove.

21
00:01:12.200 --> 00:01:14.920
<v Speaker 1>O should explorer Greg Stone says he has no objection

22
00:01:14.959 --> 00:01:18.959
<v Speaker 1>in recovering artifacts if it's done carefully and scientifically. Earlier

23
00:01:19.000 --> 00:01:21.599
<v Speaker 1>this year, a life jacket won by a passenger reportedly

24
00:01:21.640 --> 00:01:25.040
<v Speaker 1>sold for more than nine hundred thousand dollars. In twenty

25
00:01:25.079 --> 00:01:28.319
<v Speaker 1>twenty four, gold pocket watch connected to the captain of

26
00:01:28.359 --> 00:01:31.640
<v Speaker 1>the rescue ship that saved some survivors fetched nearly two

27
00:01:31.680 --> 00:01:34.840
<v Speaker 1>million dollars at an auction. Critics note that those items

28
00:01:34.840 --> 00:01:38.280
<v Speaker 1>were never part of the rex site itself. Meanwhile, in England,

29
00:01:38.719 --> 00:01:41.280
<v Speaker 1>scientists getting it done once again. A new study has

30
00:01:41.319 --> 00:01:44.400
<v Speaker 1>found that young women who receive the HPV vaccine at

31
00:01:44.400 --> 00:01:47.719
<v Speaker 1>age twelve or thirteen now have what researchers describe as

32
00:01:47.760 --> 00:01:50.760
<v Speaker 1>a close to zero risk of dying from cervical cancer

33
00:01:50.799 --> 00:01:53.680
<v Speaker 1>before the age of thirty. Researched by the Queen Mary

34
00:01:53.760 --> 00:01:57.519
<v Speaker 1>University of London examine the vaccine's impact on debts from

35
00:01:57.560 --> 00:02:00.239
<v Speaker 1>the disease. Researchers estimate the roughly two hundred line lives

36
00:02:00.280 --> 00:02:02.879
<v Speaker 1>that had already been saved since the vaccination program began

37
00:02:02.879 --> 00:02:05.319
<v Speaker 1>in two thousand and eight. Between twenty twenty and twenty

38
00:02:05.319 --> 00:02:08.879
<v Speaker 1>twenty four, they were zero recorded cervical cancer deaths among

39
00:02:08.879 --> 00:02:12.039
<v Speaker 1>women age twenty to twenty four in England. Researchers say

40
00:02:12.080 --> 00:02:14.879
<v Speaker 1>that without the vaccine, statistically, they would have had about

41
00:02:14.919 --> 00:02:19.159
<v Speaker 1>twenty three deaths. Conservationists in Australia are excited. They saw

42
00:02:19.199 --> 00:02:21.840
<v Speaker 1>a tiny bulge on a trail camera. What was it?

43
00:02:21.840 --> 00:02:25.159
<v Speaker 1>It was one of the world's rarest mammals, a northern

44
00:02:25.280 --> 00:02:29.000
<v Speaker 1>hairy nosed wombat Joey, which probably will soon be like

45
00:02:29.360 --> 00:02:31.560
<v Speaker 1>running along a highway in Texas if you listen to

46
00:02:31.599 --> 00:02:34.840
<v Speaker 1>the show Eagily Now. This is both happy and kind

47
00:02:34.879 --> 00:02:38.960
<v Speaker 1>of sad by spotting the singular northern hairy nosed wombat

48
00:02:39.080 --> 00:02:42.280
<v Speaker 1>Joey that increased the global population from four hundred and

49
00:02:42.319 --> 00:02:45.360
<v Speaker 1>fifty to four hundred and fifty one. The baby was

50
00:02:45.400 --> 00:02:48.639
<v Speaker 1>spotted in Queensland at the Richard Underwood Nature Refuge, where

51
00:02:48.680 --> 00:02:52.039
<v Speaker 1>motion sensored cameras captured images of a female wombat carrying

52
00:02:52.039 --> 00:02:54.719
<v Speaker 1>a youngster in her pouch. A volunteer said, when we

53
00:02:54.719 --> 00:02:56.360
<v Speaker 1>first saw the little budge on the belly, we got

54
00:02:56.479 --> 00:02:59.240
<v Speaker 1>very excited. The images were sent to experts who confirmed

55
00:02:59.240 --> 00:03:02.080
<v Speaker 1>that the female was indeed carrying a newly born Joey.

56
00:03:02.639 --> 00:03:05.080
<v Speaker 1>The northern hairy nose wombat is considered one of the

57
00:03:05.199 --> 00:03:08.319
<v Speaker 1>rarest mammals on Earth. By the nineteen eighties, only about

58
00:03:08.319 --> 00:03:12.759
<v Speaker 1>thirty five animals remained. Conservation efforts helped pull the species

59
00:03:12.759 --> 00:03:15.919
<v Speaker 1>back from the brink. Protected habitats, predator fencing, and intensive

60
00:03:15.960 --> 00:03:19.639
<v Speaker 1>monitoring have allowed the population to slowly recover. Good news

61
00:03:19.680 --> 00:03:22.639
<v Speaker 1>for Dylan. When Dylan was fourteen years old, doctors told

62
00:03:22.719 --> 00:03:25.520
<v Speaker 1>him he had stage four kidney cancer and he might

63
00:03:25.560 --> 00:03:28.039
<v Speaker 1>only have eight months to live. However, four years later,

64
00:03:28.159 --> 00:03:32.680
<v Speaker 1>Dylan walked across a graduation stage cancer free. Doctor Mary

65
00:03:32.879 --> 00:03:36.680
<v Speaker 1>treated Dylan through a grueling year of chemotherapy. She checked

66
00:03:36.719 --> 00:03:39.680
<v Speaker 1>in regularly, shared meals with him, incourgon throughout his darkest moments,

67
00:03:39.719 --> 00:03:41.520
<v Speaker 1>and gave him a goal to hold on when the

68
00:03:41.520 --> 00:03:44.280
<v Speaker 1>future looked uncertain. You told him, if you keep fighting

69
00:03:44.319 --> 00:03:46.879
<v Speaker 1>and make it through treatment, should be there for the graduation.

70
00:03:47.759 --> 00:03:51.360
<v Speaker 1>Sure enough, she was there. Dylan's dad said, just the

71
00:03:51.400 --> 00:03:53.400
<v Speaker 1>trick of saying hey, I'll make it to your graduation

72
00:03:53.840 --> 00:03:57.159
<v Speaker 1>changed everything. He just decided to keep fighting. Dylan has

73
00:03:57.199 --> 00:04:02.080
<v Speaker 1>been declared cancer free. She lives fifteen hundred miles away.

74
00:04:03.800 --> 00:04:06.759
<v Speaker 1>You know, sometimes the past doesn't arrive in a dusty

75
00:04:06.759 --> 00:04:09.759
<v Speaker 1>attic box or a carefully labeled family album. Sometimes it

76
00:04:09.800 --> 00:04:11.960
<v Speaker 1>shows up in the form of a wallet you didn't

77
00:04:12.000 --> 00:04:15.120
<v Speaker 1>even realize you had lost. Mark was surprised on a

78
00:04:15.120 --> 00:04:18.160
<v Speaker 1>Facebook post appeared showing the contents of a weathered wallet

79
00:04:18.199 --> 00:04:21.160
<v Speaker 1>that had shown up after a dig. The wallet had

80
00:04:21.199 --> 00:04:23.759
<v Speaker 1>some clues pointing back to its owner, including an old

81
00:04:23.839 --> 00:04:26.680
<v Speaker 1>Leeds United membership card from the nineteen ninety two to

82
00:04:26.920 --> 00:04:30.800
<v Speaker 1>nineteen ninety three season. At that time, Matt was covering

83
00:04:30.879 --> 00:04:33.279
<v Speaker 1>Leeds United for the Yorkshire Evening Post. You see where

84
00:04:33.319 --> 00:04:36.160
<v Speaker 1>this is going, right, Yes, he explains, the wallet was

85
00:04:36.199 --> 00:04:38.519
<v Speaker 1>found by the organizer of a local forest school, but

86
00:04:38.560 --> 00:04:40.920
<v Speaker 1>I have no recollection of ever walking down there at

87
00:04:40.959 --> 00:04:42.680
<v Speaker 1>any time in the past, so I have no idea

88
00:04:42.720 --> 00:04:44.920
<v Speaker 1>how the wallet got there. One theory is the wallet

89
00:04:45.000 --> 00:04:47.519
<v Speaker 1>might have disappeared after a night out many years ago.

90
00:04:48.079 --> 00:04:51.839
<v Speaker 1>Another possibility it was stolen and thrown out. Anyway, Claire

91
00:04:52.040 --> 00:04:55.600
<v Speaker 1>found the wallet posted out on the Internet. Matt's wife

92
00:04:55.639 --> 00:04:58.519
<v Speaker 1>spotted the post and realized the owner was sitting right

93
00:04:58.519 --> 00:05:01.279
<v Speaker 1>next to her. That's amazing looking back at the membership

94
00:05:01.319 --> 00:05:04.120
<v Speaker 1>card photograph, Matt couldn't resist poking fun at his younger self.

95
00:05:04.120 --> 00:05:05.680
<v Speaker 1>He said, given that I was a sports reporter, you

96
00:05:05.759 --> 00:05:07.079
<v Speaker 1>might have thought I've had more of a smile on

97
00:05:07.120 --> 00:05:09.680
<v Speaker 1>my face than on the leads card in ninety two.

98
00:05:09.720 --> 00:05:12.199
<v Speaker 1>I was thirty and happy, having a good time, loving journalism,

99
00:05:12.319 --> 00:05:15.079
<v Speaker 1>loving working in newspapers. It was just great. And now

100
00:05:15.079 --> 00:05:16.720
<v Speaker 1>he's got his wallet back. And those are your five

101
00:05:16.759 --> 00:05:19.240
<v Speaker 1>good news stories for today. You have an awesome day.
