Speaker 1: Callaroga Shock Media. Hey there, I'm Johnny Mack with five
Speaker 1: good news stories. In South Carolina, a restaurant owner is
Speaker 1: being praised. He discovered twelve thousand dollars in cash hidden
Speaker 1: inside an old cabinet and made sure the money was
Speaker 1: returned to the rightful owner. Sack had purchased a restaurant
Speaker 1: in Myrtle Beach. He was turning it into the Lemongrass
Speaker 1: Faux and Tie Cuisine place. While clearing out an old
Speaker 1: tool chest left behind by the previous owner, he decided
Speaker 1: to take one last look inside. Inside one cabinet, he
Speaker 1: found a sunglass's case. Sack said, I saw the sunglass case,
Speaker 1: and then you know, of course, when you see something
Speaker 1: like that, you open it and you look inside. He
Speaker 1: found it stuffed with one hundred dollars bills. I was shocked,
Speaker 1: he said, I knew right then it belonged to the
Speaker 1: previous owner. He tried calling the previous owner, the phone
Speaker 1: number had been disconnected, so Sack went to the local
Speaker 1: TV station to tell them the story. Then they found
Speaker 1: a different phone number and found the owner and gave
Speaker 1: the man the twelve thousand dollars. Sack says, do the
Speaker 1: right thing. Don't give up modesty. It's been super hot
Speaker 1: in Europe. In Paris, they are expanding a cooling system
Speaker 1: that uses the Sinn River to keep thousands of buildings
Speaker 1: comfortable without relying on traditional air conditioning. The Underground Network,
Speaker 1: first plan in the nineteen nineties, now includes about one
Speaker 1: hundred and twenty kilometers of pipes that distribute chilled water
Speaker 1: to museums, hospital schools, office buildings, hotels, and even landmarks.
Speaker 1: Instead of each building running its own air conditioning, cooling
Speaker 1: is produced at centralized facilities and shared through the network.
Speaker 1: The system works by pumping cool water from the Sin
Speaker 1: through underground pipes. Running alongside those pipes is another line
Speaker 1: carrying warmer water returning from the buildings. The two streams
Speaker 1: never mix. River water is returned to the Sin only
Speaker 1: slightly warmer than when it first entered the system. Paris
Speaker 1: plans to triple the size of the network by twenty
Speaker 1: forty two. In Washington, a family has sold the farm
Speaker 1: their ancestors worked on for more than a century, making
Speaker 1: way for a wildlife crossing that conscert essay could help
Speaker 1: reconnect habitats and save countless animals. For one hundred and
Speaker 1: thirty six years, the Ericson family lived and worked Vine
Speaker 1: Maple Farms at the foothills of Washington's Cascade Mountains. The
Speaker 1: family has sold the ninety four acre property for one
Speaker 1: point one million dollars so construction can move forward on
Speaker 1: a wildlife bridge over Interstate five. The crossing will reconnect
Speaker 1: habitat between the Cascade Mountains and the Olympic Peninsula, creating
Speaker 1: a safe route for animals that currently face deadly highway traffic.
Speaker 1: About fifty years ago, Allen and Janis Erickson created the
Speaker 1: Vine Maple Farms Trust, directing that once all of the
Speaker 1: family's descendants were gone, the property should ultimately be preserved
Speaker 1: for conservation. Janis Erickson told the Seattle Times, so here
Speaker 1: we are. The new crossing is expected to benefit mountain lions,
Speaker 1: black bears, deer, elk, beavers, fishers, newts, and many other species. Meanwhile,
Speaker 1: in North Carolina, wildlife officials have announced the birth of
Speaker 1: four litters of endangered red wolf pops. One letter was
Speaker 1: born on private property owned by a participant in the
Speaker 1: Prey for the Pack program, which provides financial incentives to
Speaker 1: landowners who allow red wolves to live on their land.
Speaker 1: The other three litters were born in the wild and
Speaker 1: in Texas. A woman is retiring from practicing pole dancing
Speaker 1: at home. Why she flooded two apartments? Oh no, did
Speaker 1: you see this on the interwebs. Asha was recording a
Speaker 1: practice session in her apartment when the pole came loose
Speaker 1: from the ceiling. Unfortunately, it didn't just fall, It struck
Speaker 1: a fire sprinkler, sending water spraying throughout her apartment. The
Speaker 1: flooding didn't stop there. Water also poured onto the apartment below.
Speaker 1: She told the local TV. I'm in shock because I'm like,
Speaker 1: oh my gosh, this cannot be happening to me. She
Speaker 1: had installed the pole just three days earlier and never
Speaker 1: imagined it could hit the building sprinkler system. Hope, but
Speaker 1: it did, she said. We were more worried about it
Speaker 1: hitting a wall. Luckily, the people downstairs are much cooler
Speaker 1: than I am. Asha said, I explained everything, and she
Speaker 1: was very very cool in understanding, and I appreciated that.
