00:00:01.199 --> 00:00:16.960
<v Speaker 1>Fac is WBZ, Boston's news radio, redefining local news.

2
00:00:11.519 --> 00:00:15.640
<v Speaker 2>Sonny and breezy cold thirty four degrees in Boston. Will

3
00:00:15.640 --> 00:00:18.640
<v Speaker 2>it snow? This week looks like it will have more

4
00:00:18.640 --> 00:00:22.160
<v Speaker 2>than the forecasts coming up on Laurie Kirby. But first

5
00:00:22.519 --> 00:00:26.160
<v Speaker 2>breaking news in the Middle East, a ceasefire reportedly shattered.

6
00:00:26.239 --> 00:00:31.519
<v Speaker 2>Lebanese officials now telling rerouders Israel fired an airstrike, killing

7
00:00:31.559 --> 00:00:35.439
<v Speaker 2>at least two people in southern Lebanon. This after Israel

8
00:00:35.600 --> 00:00:39.719
<v Speaker 2>signed a ceasefire deal with Hezbolah, which only started taking

9
00:00:39.759 --> 00:00:44.880
<v Speaker 2>effect last week. Meantime, Israel says Hezbolah has fired into

10
00:00:44.920 --> 00:00:48.679
<v Speaker 2>a disputed border zone. Hesbolah's calling it a warning, a

11
00:00:48.759 --> 00:00:55.039
<v Speaker 2>warning strike, saying Israel has repeatedly violated the ceasefire. And again,

12
00:00:55.200 --> 00:00:59.880
<v Speaker 2>so fresh, it's a very very new ceasefire and it

13
00:01:00.119 --> 00:01:03.000
<v Speaker 2>looks like it has been shattered at this point in time.

14
00:01:03.039 --> 00:01:05.079
<v Speaker 2>But again, take us on the go. We'll have more

15
00:01:05.079 --> 00:01:08.439
<v Speaker 2>on this both here and streaming on the iHeartRadio app.

16
00:01:08.879 --> 00:01:11.519
<v Speaker 2>Let's go to the White House to be President Elect

17
00:01:11.560 --> 00:01:14.280
<v Speaker 2>Donald Trump's pick to leave the FBI as a lot

18
00:01:14.319 --> 00:01:17.439
<v Speaker 2>of defenders and a whole lot of detractors too. The

19
00:01:17.560 --> 00:01:22.239
<v Speaker 2>nod goes to Cash Patel, who famously wrote last year

20
00:01:22.319 --> 00:01:25.840
<v Speaker 2>in his book that he wants to shut down FBI

21
00:01:26.000 --> 00:01:31.239
<v Speaker 2>headquarters and scatter its staff to field offices around the nation. Now,

22
00:01:31.280 --> 00:01:34.879
<v Speaker 2>Patel served under the first Trump administration and both intelligence

23
00:01:34.920 --> 00:01:40.319
<v Speaker 2>and defense roles, along with National Security Advisor Josh Bolton.

24
00:01:40.480 --> 00:01:44.719
<v Speaker 2>Remember Josh Bolton. Well, now the Republican is comparing the

25
00:01:44.760 --> 00:01:49.719
<v Speaker 2>nomination of Patel to Joseph Stalin's secret police chief. He's

26
00:01:49.840 --> 00:01:54.560
<v Speaker 2>urging the Senate to deny the confirmation. And international students

27
00:01:54.560 --> 00:02:00.239
<v Speaker 2>at Harvard University are blindsided on housing arrangements this winter breaks.

28
00:02:00.480 --> 00:02:02.079
<v Speaker 2>Jay Willette reports.

29
00:02:01.640 --> 00:02:04.959
<v Speaker 3>School officials deny those students here on financial aid packages

30
00:02:05.000 --> 00:02:07.719
<v Speaker 3>on campus housing, in a break with tradition. The sudden

31
00:02:07.760 --> 00:02:10.120
<v Speaker 3>decision leaves them all scrambling to put a roof over

32
00:02:10.159 --> 00:02:13.120
<v Speaker 3>their heads during the upcoming winter break. Close to three

33
00:02:13.240 --> 00:02:15.840
<v Speaker 3>hundred have signed a petition calling on the housing office

34
00:02:15.960 --> 00:02:18.319
<v Speaker 3>for a do over this semester. Man They say they

35
00:02:18.319 --> 00:02:21.120
<v Speaker 3>need shelter during break because they simply cannot afford a

36
00:02:21.199 --> 00:02:25.199
<v Speaker 3>travel home for the holidays. Jay Willette WBZ Boston's News Radio.

37
00:02:25.319 --> 00:02:28.080
<v Speaker 2>So we have a statement from Harvard University and it says,

38
00:02:28.159 --> 00:02:32.039
<v Speaker 2>while it's our expectation that students will not be in

39
00:02:32.159 --> 00:02:35.599
<v Speaker 2>residence over the winter recess, we do understand that some

40
00:02:35.800 --> 00:02:39.360
<v Speaker 2>students may need to stay on campus, but only those

41
00:02:39.400 --> 00:02:43.879
<v Speaker 2>who meet the eligibility requirements will be approved. But we're

42
00:02:43.919 --> 00:02:48.080
<v Speaker 2>willing to discuss any challenges. The end of the Stewart

43
00:02:48.120 --> 00:02:52.520
<v Speaker 2>Healthcare saga continues in Massachusetts. At a ceremony last month,

44
00:02:53.039 --> 00:02:57.199
<v Speaker 2>Rhode Island's biggest healthcare system took over Saint Anne's Hospital

45
00:02:57.280 --> 00:03:01.960
<v Speaker 2>in Fall River along with Morton Hospital, taunted. The official

46
00:03:02.000 --> 00:03:04.879
<v Speaker 2>handoff to Brown Health ushers in the arrival of a

47
00:03:04.919 --> 00:03:08.360
<v Speaker 2>new player to the state's hospital sector, bringing in the

48
00:03:08.400 --> 00:03:13.840
<v Speaker 2>financial stability of new operators. Brown University Health CEO John

49
00:03:13.879 --> 00:03:18.680
<v Speaker 2>Fernandez says their medical facilities follow a patient centered vision,

50
00:03:19.439 --> 00:03:22.840
<v Speaker 2>and between the holiday shopping and the freezing tempts, let's

51
00:03:22.919 --> 00:03:27.919
<v Speaker 2>get a handle on that stress. Well, snow is coming. Snow.

52
00:03:28.199 --> 00:03:30.479
<v Speaker 2>I said the four letter word snow. This is not

53
00:03:30.560 --> 00:03:34.840
<v Speaker 2>a snow storm. This is baby step snow. But for today,

54
00:03:34.879 --> 00:03:37.680
<v Speaker 2>tonight and tomorrow, very clear, very cold, our hoh today

55
00:03:37.759 --> 00:03:41.000
<v Speaker 2>forty are low to night twenty two and again tomorrow

56
00:03:41.000 --> 00:03:45.960
<v Speaker 2>around forty Wednesday. Here it comes rain and snow at times.

57
00:03:46.199 --> 00:03:51.240
<v Speaker 2>Wednesday afternoon with some light accumulation north and west of Boston.

58
00:03:51.439 --> 00:03:56.960
<v Speaker 2>Thursday windy with a snow shower or two, especially on

59
00:03:57.000 --> 00:03:59.199
<v Speaker 2>the south coast of the Cape and the Island. So

60
00:03:59.280 --> 00:04:00.840
<v Speaker 2>everybody gets a little dusting.

61
00:04:01.039 --> 00:04:01.240
<v Speaker 1>You know.

62
00:04:01.360 --> 00:04:04.560
<v Speaker 2>For some people that puts them in some good holiday cheer.

63
00:04:04.639 --> 00:04:07.560
<v Speaker 2>For others, maybe it stresses you out. And for some

64
00:04:07.599 --> 00:04:10.719
<v Speaker 2>of you, the holidays is a battle with stress.

65
00:04:11.120 --> 00:04:13.800
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, the most wonderful time of the year, unless you know,

66
00:04:13.960 --> 00:04:14.360
<v Speaker 4>it's not.

67
00:04:14.520 --> 00:04:20.360
<v Speaker 5>Take a cake, Take a cake, doumble hate los entirely.

68
00:04:21.199 --> 00:04:23.480
<v Speaker 4>But it's not just the Grinch not getting down with

69
00:04:23.519 --> 00:04:27.160
<v Speaker 4>the holidays. Survey says nine to ten US adults feel

70
00:04:27.199 --> 00:04:29.759
<v Speaker 4>at least some stress this time of year. It gets

71
00:04:29.839 --> 00:04:32.360
<v Speaker 4>dark early, the calendar is all booked up in crazy

72
00:04:32.480 --> 00:04:35.399
<v Speaker 4>family work parties, and of course there's that pressure to

73
00:04:35.439 --> 00:04:39.399
<v Speaker 4>buy gifts. Some advice from doctor Juhu Smalls Monte.

74
00:04:38.959 --> 00:04:41.560
<v Speaker 5>You might want to consider doing all decret Santa, where

75
00:04:41.759 --> 00:04:44.560
<v Speaker 5>one person in your group gets a gift from one

76
00:04:44.600 --> 00:04:47.000
<v Speaker 5>other person, so you're not on the hook for buying

77
00:04:47.000 --> 00:04:49.600
<v Speaker 5>a gift for maybe five, ten, fifteen people.

78
00:04:49.839 --> 00:04:52.160
<v Speaker 4>And don't forget it doesn't always need to be expensive

79
00:04:52.199 --> 00:04:55.040
<v Speaker 4>to be great. Sometimes a gift from the heart is

<v Speaker 4>gold Drew moholland WBZ, Boston's News Radio.

81
00:04:58.319 --> 00:05:01.839
<v Speaker 2>So how do we manage that stress deep breaths?

82
00:05:02.160 --> 00:05:06.000
<v Speaker 6>According to a study published recently in the journal Nature Neuroscience,

83
00:05:06.240 --> 00:05:10.800
<v Speaker 6>the pathway regulates voluntary breathing, which lets people manually slow

84
00:05:10.959 --> 00:05:13.680
<v Speaker 6>their breathing and calm their minds. The author of the

85
00:05:13.680 --> 00:05:16.480
<v Speaker 6>study says it someday there could possibly be a new

86
00:05:16.600 --> 00:05:19.800
<v Speaker 6>drug that would emulate the relaxed state that people experienced

87
00:05:19.839 --> 00:05:21.279
<v Speaker 6>during yoga or meditation.

88
00:05:21.399 --> 00:05:25.839
<v Speaker 2>A Marknyfield All right, now onto something a little bit

89
00:05:25.920 --> 00:05:29.399
<v Speaker 2>stressful if you ride the Tea, in particular the Red Line.

90
00:05:29.439 --> 00:05:32.759
<v Speaker 2>They just found a new crack, a crack in the

91
00:05:32.879 --> 00:05:36.560
<v Speaker 2>rail near Quincy Center, and right now they're taking folks

92
00:05:36.560 --> 00:05:40.879
<v Speaker 2>by shuttle busses between North Quincy and Braintree stations. Cruise

93
00:05:40.920 --> 00:05:44.560
<v Speaker 2>are unseene and they've been doing track inspections. And again

94
00:05:44.680 --> 00:05:48.040
<v Speaker 2>commuter rail service is now free. It's a free fair

95
00:05:48.120 --> 00:05:51.639
<v Speaker 2>to cover this while they make those repairs. You are
