00:00:03.160 --> 00:00:09.160
<v Speaker 1>Caloroga Shock Media. Hi there, I'm Johnny Mack with five

2
00:00:09.199 --> 00:00:12.080
<v Speaker 1>good news stories. Studies have long shown that sitting all

3
00:00:12.160 --> 00:00:14.519
<v Speaker 1>day is not great for our health, but new research

4
00:00:14.599 --> 00:00:18.320
<v Speaker 1>suggests the solution might be pretty simple. Researchers at Columbia

5
00:00:18.399 --> 00:00:21.320
<v Speaker 1>University say the sweet spot is taking a five minute

6
00:00:21.359 --> 00:00:25.559
<v Speaker 1>walk every hour. The study followed more than eleven thousand

7
00:00:25.600 --> 00:00:28.839
<v Speaker 1>office workers. During the first week, participants follow their normal routines.

8
00:00:28.879 --> 00:00:31.960
<v Speaker 1>Then they tested different walking schedules, including breaks every thirty minutes,

9
00:00:31.960 --> 00:00:34.159
<v Speaker 1>every hour, and every two hours. If you ever worked

10
00:00:34.159 --> 00:00:37.640
<v Speaker 1>in an office, I'm absolutely doing the every hour. The

11
00:00:37.679 --> 00:00:40.679
<v Speaker 1>results work clear. Walking every half hour offered benefits, but

12
00:00:40.759 --> 00:00:44.359
<v Speaker 1>interrupted work too often. Waiting two hours helped a little,

13
00:00:44.399 --> 00:00:47.600
<v Speaker 1>but not as much the sweet spot five minutes once

14
00:00:47.640 --> 00:00:50.799
<v Speaker 1>an hour. Participants reported feeling happier, more alert, less fatigued,

15
00:00:50.840 --> 00:00:53.840
<v Speaker 1>and even more productive. Scientists getting a ton and they

16
00:00:53.840 --> 00:00:56.880
<v Speaker 1>have found that an Antarctic sea creature might hold the

17
00:00:56.960 --> 00:00:59.759
<v Speaker 1>key to fighting skin cancer. Researchers from the University of

18
00:00:59.759 --> 00:01:05.079
<v Speaker 1>South Florida say toxins produced by tiny Antarctic sea creatures

19
00:01:05.120 --> 00:01:08.120
<v Speaker 1>known as sea squirts, have shown remarkable promise in early

20
00:01:08.159 --> 00:01:12.120
<v Speaker 1>melanoma research. Divers collected these sea squirts, which is just

21
00:01:12.159 --> 00:01:14.959
<v Speaker 1>fun to say, from icy waters more than one hundred

22
00:01:15.000 --> 00:01:18.480
<v Speaker 1>feet below the surface. In laboratory testing, researchers found that

23
00:01:18.519 --> 00:01:22.079
<v Speaker 1>bacteria living inside the sea squirts produce compounds capable of

24
00:01:22.159 --> 00:01:26.280
<v Speaker 1>killing melanoma cells. That's awesome. Even more encouraging, the compounds

25
00:01:26.280 --> 00:01:30.159
<v Speaker 1>eliminated cancer and mice without harming the mice. Professor Bill

26
00:01:30.159 --> 00:01:32.480
<v Speaker 1>Baker said, the good news is it didn't kill the mice,

27
00:01:32.560 --> 00:01:35.680
<v Speaker 1>it did kill the cancer. Now the challenge producing enough

28
00:01:35.719 --> 00:01:38.719
<v Speaker 1>of it. A basketball size collection of sea squirts yields

29
00:01:38.719 --> 00:01:41.359
<v Speaker 1>only a tiny fraction of the material needed for testing,

30
00:01:41.680 --> 00:01:43.719
<v Speaker 1>so scientists have to figure out how to recreate the

31
00:01:43.760 --> 00:01:47.200
<v Speaker 1>compound in the labor rather than harvesting it. In Antarctica

32
00:01:47.680 --> 00:01:50.879
<v Speaker 1>and Montana, volunteers were rewarding people who choose not to

33
00:01:51.000 --> 00:01:54.519
<v Speaker 1>drive drunk, never drive drunk, always choose not to drive drunk.

34
00:01:54.799 --> 00:01:57.920
<v Speaker 1>A volunteer group known as the Montana Bar Fairies. They

35
00:01:57.920 --> 00:02:00.920
<v Speaker 1>went viral for leaving five dollars coffee gift cards under

36
00:02:00.920 --> 00:02:03.799
<v Speaker 1>the windshield wipers of vehicles left overnight outside local bars.

37
00:02:04.359 --> 00:02:06.040
<v Speaker 1>Here's the deal. If you leave your car behind, you

38
00:02:06.079 --> 00:02:08.199
<v Speaker 1>take a cab home instead of drinking. You get a

39
00:02:08.199 --> 00:02:10.319
<v Speaker 1>small thank you the next morning to show up. Is

40
00:02:10.319 --> 00:02:12.680
<v Speaker 1>that a parking ticket? No, it's a gift card for

41
00:02:12.719 --> 00:02:16.879
<v Speaker 1>a cup of coffee. Congratulations to Kelsey. Kelsey made history

42
00:02:16.960 --> 00:02:20.199
<v Speaker 1>becoming the first American woman to row alone from California

43
00:02:20.280 --> 00:02:24.800
<v Speaker 1>to Hawaii. Forty three days alone on the Pacific Ocean,

44
00:02:25.719 --> 00:02:29.439
<v Speaker 1>Kelsey arrived in Honolulu, completing the roughly twenty four hundred

45
00:02:29.520 --> 00:02:32.680
<v Speaker 1>mile journey aboard her twenty one foot rowing boat, the Lily.

46
00:02:33.319 --> 00:02:36.560
<v Speaker 1>She also set the fastest solo California to Hawaii rowing

47
00:02:36.560 --> 00:02:39.360
<v Speaker 1>time ever, breaking both the previous women's record by more

48
00:02:39.360 --> 00:02:42.560
<v Speaker 1>than eighty six days. Throughout the journey, she shared video

49
00:02:42.639 --> 00:02:45.840
<v Speaker 1>updates documenting everything from rough seas and ocean currents, the

50
00:02:45.919 --> 00:02:49.120
<v Speaker 1>everyday challenges of avoiding sunburn, preparing meals, and coping with

51
00:02:49.199 --> 00:02:52.759
<v Speaker 1>weeks of isolation, and one entry recorded just a few

52
00:02:52.840 --> 00:02:55.560
<v Speaker 1>days before reaching Hawaii, she was sad she had come

53
00:02:55.560 --> 00:02:59.680
<v Speaker 1>to love life alone on the open ocean. Oh and

54
00:02:59.719 --> 00:03:02.479
<v Speaker 1>you got a feel for this, mom. Mom's there at

55
00:03:02.520 --> 00:03:07.960
<v Speaker 1>the airport, and suddenly the suitcase started vibrating. Yep, the

56
00:03:08.000 --> 00:03:11.439
<v Speaker 1>suitcase started vibrating in full volume. Everyone turned around and

57
00:03:11.479 --> 00:03:14.800
<v Speaker 1>stared at the mom. What was in the suitcase that

58
00:03:14.879 --> 00:03:17.800
<v Speaker 1>at everybody wondering what was vibrating, Well, it was a

59
00:03:17.840 --> 00:03:21.439
<v Speaker 1>personal item, you know what. It was an electric toothbrush.

60
00:03:21.560 --> 00:03:23.759
<v Speaker 1>I know what you were thinking, kind of show do

61
00:03:23.800 --> 00:03:27.280
<v Speaker 1>you think this is? It was an electric toothbrush. That's

62
00:03:27.319 --> 00:03:29.520
<v Speaker 1>all those? Are you? Five good news stories for today?

63
00:03:29.639 --> 00:03:30.240
<v Speaker 1>Have a good one.
