7
00:00:27.760 --> 00:00:31.960
<v Speaker 1>Jim McKay and here's what's happening. Well, we've got another

8
00:00:32.039 --> 00:00:35.280
<v Speaker 1>hot one on tap. The dog days of summer are here,

9
00:00:35.560 --> 00:00:37.719
<v Speaker 1>and we're going to be flirting with a heat wave

10
00:00:37.840 --> 00:00:38.479
<v Speaker 1>this week.

11
00:00:38.600 --> 00:00:41.439
<v Speaker 2>Up today with plenty of sunshine, eyes low to mid nineties,

12
00:00:41.560 --> 00:00:43.359
<v Speaker 2>staying in the eighties and mere ninety for the CAEP

13
00:00:43.399 --> 00:00:43.880
<v Speaker 2>in the island.

14
00:00:44.039 --> 00:00:47.560
<v Speaker 1>That is wbz ACU weather meteorologist Joe Lundberg, and we

15
00:00:47.640 --> 00:00:51.600
<v Speaker 1>continue to track these ninety degrade days and we're looking

16
00:00:51.679 --> 00:00:54.759
<v Speaker 1>at also the air quality alerts that could also be

17
00:00:54.799 --> 00:00:57.759
<v Speaker 1>going into effect today as it could get rather muggy

18
00:00:57.799 --> 00:00:59.359
<v Speaker 1>out there in the midst of all of this heat.

19
00:00:59.359 --> 00:01:02.439
<v Speaker 1>It's going to be very warm out there once again tomorrow. Well,

20
00:01:02.520 --> 00:01:05.280
<v Speaker 1>we do have a tropical storm. Were also keeping an

21
00:01:05.319 --> 00:01:11.000
<v Speaker 1>eye on Tropical Storm errand continues to form in the Atlantic,

22
00:01:11.079 --> 00:01:14.040
<v Speaker 1>and there is the potential that it may advance into

23
00:01:14.159 --> 00:01:17.879
<v Speaker 1>a Category one hurricane. If that is the case, that

24
00:01:17.920 --> 00:01:21.239
<v Speaker 1>would be the first of the hurricane season. And right

25
00:01:21.280 --> 00:01:24.480
<v Speaker 1>now it is tracking to be off the Cuban coastline

26
00:01:24.560 --> 00:01:27.640
<v Speaker 1>somewhere around Friday night around eight o'clock. Is it going

27
00:01:27.640 --> 00:01:30.560
<v Speaker 1>to affect the southeastern US. Well, we got to keep

28
00:01:30.560 --> 00:01:32.439
<v Speaker 1>an eye on it, and we will for you right

29
00:01:32.480 --> 00:01:36.079
<v Speaker 1>here on WVZ News Radio. Well, hundreds of National Guardsmen

30
00:01:36.120 --> 00:01:39.319
<v Speaker 1>activated in the nation's capital, the President saying he is

31
00:01:39.400 --> 00:01:42.920
<v Speaker 1>deploying National guardsmen in an effort to curb crime, the

32
00:01:43.079 --> 00:01:46.239
<v Speaker 1>first time in American history that a president is seizing

33
00:01:46.280 --> 00:01:50.239
<v Speaker 1>control of police in the nation's capital. ABC Stephen Portnoy

34
00:01:50.319 --> 00:01:50.799
<v Speaker 1>with the tail.

35
00:01:50.879 --> 00:01:52.799
<v Speaker 2>If you look at the statistics that have been compiled

36
00:01:52.799 --> 00:01:55.439
<v Speaker 2>and reported by the DC police, he's wrong. Mayor of

37
00:01:55.439 --> 00:01:58.519
<v Speaker 2>this city, Muriel Bowser, gave a news conference yesterday afternoon

38
00:01:58.560 --> 00:02:01.159
<v Speaker 2>in which she said that crime in the city's actually

39
00:02:01.159 --> 00:02:03.840
<v Speaker 2>at a thirty year low. Now. Mayor Bowser has tried to

40
00:02:03.879 --> 00:02:06.480
<v Speaker 2>walk a careful line here because she knows that the

41
00:02:06.480 --> 00:02:09.759
<v Speaker 2>President in the law, arguably along with Congress and the

42
00:02:09.759 --> 00:02:14.000
<v Speaker 2>Constitution has extraordinary powers that he may still be keeping

43
00:02:14.159 --> 00:02:15.000
<v Speaker 2>close to his chest.

44
00:02:15.120 --> 00:02:18.639
<v Speaker 1>And protesters gathered outside the White House after the President's

45
00:02:18.680 --> 00:02:22.879
<v Speaker 1>announcement yesterday denouncing the move to deploy the National Guard

46
00:02:23.039 --> 00:02:26.159
<v Speaker 1>in DC. Well, we have new comments this morning from

47
00:02:26.319 --> 00:02:30.680
<v Speaker 1>Ukrainian President rather Vladimir Zelensky about the upcoming summit between

48
00:02:30.759 --> 00:02:35.199
<v Speaker 1>Russian President Vladimir Putin and President Trump, Zelensky saying that

49
00:02:35.520 --> 00:02:38.639
<v Speaker 1>Russia is not interested in peace in Ukraine. In fact,

50
00:02:38.879 --> 00:02:42.400
<v Speaker 1>they're planning new attacks. This taking place right before this

51
00:02:42.520 --> 00:02:46.159
<v Speaker 1>upcoming summit in Alaska this Friday, between President Trump and

52
00:02:46.759 --> 00:02:51.199
<v Speaker 1>Vladimir Putin. Well, the pot keeps on growing. No winner

53
00:02:51.240 --> 00:02:55.080
<v Speaker 1>once again. And last night's powerball jackpot it's now up

54
00:02:55.120 --> 00:02:58.039
<v Speaker 1>over a half billion dollars and then some. It currently

55
00:02:58.080 --> 00:03:02.080
<v Speaker 1>stands at five hundred and twenty million dollars. Excuse me,

56
00:03:02.080 --> 00:03:04.840
<v Speaker 1>that's two hundred and forty million dollars in cash, and

57
00:03:04.879 --> 00:03:07.960
<v Speaker 1>of course those odds of winning roughly one and two

58
00:03:08.120 --> 00:03:11.120
<v Speaker 1>hundred and ninety two million. And right now we are

59
00:03:11.159 --> 00:03:14.840
<v Speaker 1>looking at sunshine here on this Tuesday morning, just starting

60
00:03:14.840 --> 00:03:17.439
<v Speaker 1>to come up here at daybreak, and again we have

61
00:03:17.479 --> 00:03:20.479
<v Speaker 1>another beautiful morning out there. I know these afternoons they

62
00:03:20.520 --> 00:03:24.039
<v Speaker 1>get so hot, but these nice warm summer mornings, get

63
00:03:24.080 --> 00:03:25.759
<v Speaker 1>a cup of coffee. If you're able to relax, you

64
00:03:25.800 --> 00:03:28.439
<v Speaker 1>get a couple of days off. Got some real nice

65
00:03:28.520 --> 00:03:31.439
<v Speaker 1>heat out there in the afternoon, but for the morning

66
00:03:31.479 --> 00:03:33.919
<v Speaker 1>it is certainly nice and comfortable. We're at seventy four

67
00:03:34.039 --> 00:03:36.560
<v Speaker 1>right now in Boston, and again we're kind of looking

68
00:03:36.599 --> 00:03:39.599
<v Speaker 1>at some hazy skies here. Again we're talking about those

69
00:03:39.599 --> 00:03:42.840
<v Speaker 1>air quality alerts. We could be triggering some this week,

70
00:03:43.240 --> 00:03:46.560
<v Speaker 1>not any right now according to the National Weather Service,

71
00:03:46.560 --> 00:03:49.479
<v Speaker 1>but nevertheless, we're climbing up into the mid nineties later

72
00:03:49.560 --> 00:03:52.199
<v Speaker 1>on this afternoon. A bit more of that coastal breeze,

73
00:03:52.199 --> 00:03:54.680
<v Speaker 1>we'll cool things off. If you're along the north South

74
00:03:54.719 --> 00:03:58.360
<v Speaker 1>Shore Cape in the Islands for your Wednesday tomorrow sunshine

75
00:03:58.400 --> 00:04:01.240
<v Speaker 1>and clouds once again works to be in the nineties

76
00:04:01.479 --> 00:04:04.120
<v Speaker 1>if we get there, well, we've got ourselves a heat wave,

77
00:04:04.639 --> 00:04:07.159
<v Speaker 1>ladies and gentlemen for the first three days of this week.

78
00:04:07.400 --> 00:04:09.680
<v Speaker 1>Then by Thursday, high of eighty two we could see

79
00:04:09.680 --> 00:04:12.560
<v Speaker 1>a thunderstorm in the mix. A lot more comfortable Friday

80
00:04:12.599 --> 00:04:14.840
<v Speaker 1>heading off into the weekend, as we could be back

81
00:04:14.879 --> 00:04:16.759
<v Speaker 1>down in the mid to upper seventies. And right now

82
00:04:16.759 --> 00:04:19.480
<v Speaker 1>we're looking at an outstanding weekend, but we've got a

83
00:04:19.480 --> 00:04:22.000
<v Speaker 1>bit of a ways to go here seventy four degrees

84
00:04:22.079 --> 00:04:25.079
<v Speaker 1>starting to see sunshine. It is sixh six now on

85
00:04:25.240 --> 00:04:28.639
<v Speaker 1>WBZ News Radio. Well kids in need getting some new

86
00:04:28.759 --> 00:04:32.360
<v Speaker 1>school year gear and Waltham without the financial burden that

87
00:04:32.439 --> 00:04:33.240
<v Speaker 1>comes along with it.

88
00:04:33.360 --> 00:04:36.560
<v Speaker 2>So first, the most important thing, you said, ready to

89
00:04:36.600 --> 00:04:37.240
<v Speaker 2>go to school.

90
00:04:37.319 --> 00:04:39.800
<v Speaker 3>Waltham Mayor Jeanette MacCarthy was on hand for the event

91
00:04:39.839 --> 00:04:43.399
<v Speaker 3>at the Salvation Army's Community Center on Myrtle Street. Volunteers

92
00:04:43.399 --> 00:04:47.920
<v Speaker 3>stood behind tables handing out all sorts of school supplies, books, backpacks, notebooks.

93
00:04:48.040 --> 00:04:49.920
<v Speaker 3>Salvation Army Captain Justin Barter.

94
00:04:50.160 --> 00:04:53.079
<v Speaker 4>Being able to see all these people come, both the

95
00:04:53.160 --> 00:04:56.439
<v Speaker 4>volunteers who are here helping us serve the community and

96
00:04:56.519 --> 00:04:58.920
<v Speaker 4>the local organizations who are really helping to make this

97
00:04:58.959 --> 00:05:01.639
<v Speaker 4>event special, and then seeing all the phases of the

98
00:05:01.639 --> 00:05:04.399
<v Speaker 4>people who are lined up ready to be served, is

99
00:05:04.480 --> 00:05:07.160
<v Speaker 4>just such a blessing. Being able to know that they're

100
00:05:07.199 --> 00:05:09.680
<v Speaker 4>going to leave here with something that's going to get

101
00:05:09.800 --> 00:05:11.759
<v Speaker 4>their family ready for the future.

102
00:05:11.959 --> 00:05:14.399
<v Speaker 3>There will be an even bigger donation event this Wednesday

103
00:05:14.399 --> 00:05:17.519
<v Speaker 3>at TD Garden. Families will need to pre register beforehand.

104
00:05:17.639 --> 00:05:20.639
<v Speaker 3>Jeremy Ross WBZ Boston's news radio, and.

105
00:05:20.680 --> 00:05:23.959
<v Speaker 1>It is now six oh seven on WBZ News Radio.

106
00:05:24.000 --> 00:05:27.120
<v Speaker 1>Governor Mora Heally isn't jumping to any decisions about whether

107
00:05:27.240 --> 00:05:30.480
<v Speaker 1>or not to call for Suffolk Sheriff Stephen Tompkins to

108
00:05:30.560 --> 00:05:34.639
<v Speaker 1>resign after his Florida arrest, saying the accusations against him

109
00:05:34.680 --> 00:05:38.360
<v Speaker 1>are certainly serious, but she needs more information. Tompkins is

110
00:05:38.360 --> 00:05:42.360
<v Speaker 1>accused of extorting a cannabis retailer doing business in Boston.

111
00:05:42.360 --> 00:05:45.600
<v Speaker 1>They're based out of Florida. He was released on bond

112
00:05:45.680 --> 00:05:48.160
<v Speaker 1>on Friday, but he has to report to federal court

113
00:05:48.240 --> 00:05:53.519
<v Speaker 1>in Boston for an upcoming appearance this Friday at six

114
00:05:53.759 --> 00:05:58.199
<v Speaker 1>seven on WBZ News Radio. Baylor versus Boston University. We're

115
00:05:58.199 --> 00:06:02.360
<v Speaker 1>not talking about a ballgame, but rather a lawsuit. Baylor

116
00:06:02.519 --> 00:06:06.519
<v Speaker 1>is suing Boston University over the school's use of their

117
00:06:06.639 --> 00:06:11.319
<v Speaker 1>interlocking BU logo, saying it violates a design that Baylor

118
00:06:11.360 --> 00:06:15.120
<v Speaker 1>had trademarked. The suit was filed at federal court in Texas,

119
00:06:15.399 --> 00:06:18.839
<v Speaker 1>and Baylor is asking the court to require BU to

120
00:06:18.959 --> 00:06:24.560
<v Speaker 1>destroy all goods, packaging, signing, advertising, and Internet postings regarding

121
00:06:24.600 --> 00:06:27.040
<v Speaker 1>that logo and then want to recover any cost for

122
00:06:27.079 --> 00:06:30.800
<v Speaker 1>the litigation and any future potential financial relief. It's even

123
00:06:30.839 --> 00:06:33.120
<v Speaker 1>more bizarre. This isn't the first time this has happened,

124
00:06:33.360 --> 00:06:35.439
<v Speaker 1>as Baylor took bu to court over this in the

125
00:06:35.480 --> 00:06:38.279
<v Speaker 1>mid eighties. Back in nineteen eighty seven, and the two

126
00:06:38.360 --> 00:06:40.480
<v Speaker 1>schools settled out of court.

127
00:06:40.879 --> 00:06:43.399
<v Speaker 2>You are now in the loop for news updates throughout

128
