4
00:00:16.280 --> 00:00:19.320
<v Speaker 2>to the new week. Like try an earthquake. A three

5
00:00:19.359 --> 00:00:22.199

00:00:23.920 --> 00:00:26.480
<v Speaker 3>Thing strikes centered off the coast of York Harbor, Maine.

8
00:00:26.519 --> 00:00:28.679
<v Speaker 3>And yes, lots of people are feeling it here. No

9
00:00:28.760 --> 00:00:30.839
<v Speaker 3>word yet on any injuries or damage. I just got

10
00:00:30.879 --> 00:00:33.200
<v Speaker 3>off the phone with the US Geological Survey. This is

11
00:00:33.240 --> 00:00:33.759
<v Speaker 3>what they got.

12
00:00:33.799 --> 00:00:39.200
<v Speaker 4>Located eleven kilometers southeast of York Harbor, Maine, offshore, so

13
00:00:39.280 --> 00:00:41.560
<v Speaker 4>it puts it at about five five and a half

14
00:00:41.640 --> 00:00:44.399

00:00:44.520 --> 00:00:47.280

16
00:00:47.320 --> 00:00:50.479
<v Speaker 3>Most of Massachusetts as far out as Springfield could have

17
00:00:50.520 --> 00:00:53.000

00:00:53.039 --> 00:00:55.479

<v Speaker 3>Drew mamholland, WBZ Boston's news radio.

20
00:00:58.880 --> 00:01:01.880
<v Speaker 2>US public health officials are being told to stop working

21
00:01:01.880 --> 00:01:06.040
<v Speaker 2>with the World Health Organization effective immediately. A CDC official

22
00:01:06.239 --> 00:01:08.799
<v Speaker 2>sent a memo to senior leaders at the agency yesterday

23
00:01:08.840 --> 00:01:11.599
<v Speaker 2>telling them to stop work with the WHO and to

24
00:01:11.640 --> 00:01:15.040
<v Speaker 2>await further guidance. Experts say this will set back work

25
00:01:15.079 --> 00:01:17.280
<v Speaker 2>on monitoring bird flow of the US along we try

26
00:01:17.280 --> 00:01:22.959
<v Speaker 2>to stop outbreaks of the Marburg virus and MPOs in Africa.

27
00:01:23.040 --> 00:01:25.959
<v Speaker 2>President Trump issued an executive order last week to begin

28
00:01:26.000 --> 00:01:30.480
<v Speaker 2>the process of withdrawing from the WHO, but it requires

29
00:01:30.519 --> 00:01:33.280
<v Speaker 2>the approval of Congress in order to take effect. President

30
00:01:33.319 --> 00:01:35.840
<v Speaker 2>Trump's been using his position to sign many executive orders

31
00:01:35.840 --> 00:01:38.400
<v Speaker 2>in his first week in office. Now, the President's expected

32
00:01:38.439 --> 00:01:41.519
<v Speaker 2>to sign several executive orders focused on the military.

33
00:01:41.599 --> 00:01:44.280
<v Speaker 5>According to a White House official, the president will sign

34
00:01:44.319 --> 00:01:47.560
<v Speaker 5>an executive order that will direct the DoD to determine

35
00:01:47.560 --> 00:01:51.680
<v Speaker 5>a policy for transgender service members based on readiness. He'll

36
00:01:51.719 --> 00:01:55.079
<v Speaker 5>also sign an order that abolishes DEI in the military,

37
00:01:55.200 --> 00:01:58.239
<v Speaker 5>and a third executive order will reinstate members of the

38
00:01:58.239 --> 00:02:02.159

44
00:02:16.560 --> 00:02:20.120
<v Speaker 6>the IRS officially starts accepting tax returns. If you file

45
00:02:20.199 --> 00:02:23.639
<v Speaker 6>electronically and your return is accurate and complete, the IRS

46
00:02:23.639 --> 00:02:26.120
<v Speaker 6>says it should take fewer than three weeks to receive

47
00:02:26.159 --> 00:02:29.919
<v Speaker 6>a refund. The deadline to file taxes is April fifteenth.

<v Speaker 1>That is CBS's Matt Piper.

49
00:02:32.680 --> 00:02:35.879
<v Speaker 2>Massachusetts experienced the same four point one percent unemployment rate

50
00:02:35.879 --> 00:02:38.639
<v Speaker 2>in December as the country as a whole, which ends

51
00:02:38.639 --> 00:02:41.960
<v Speaker 2>at nearly two years streak of comparatively lower joblessness in

52
00:02:42.039 --> 00:02:45.879
<v Speaker 2>the Bay. State labor officials announced that Massachusetts unemployment rate

53
00:02:45.919 --> 00:02:48.719
<v Speaker 2>inched upward one tenth of a percentage point from four

54
00:02:48.759 --> 00:02:51.280
<v Speaker 2>percent in November, while at the same time, the national

55
00:02:51.319 --> 00:02:54.560
<v Speaker 2>unemployment rate ticked downward from four point two percent to

56
00:02:54.639 --> 00:02:57.520
<v Speaker 2>four point one percent. If you like to move it,

57
00:02:57.599 --> 00:02:59.599

<v Speaker 4>Like them?

61
00:03:03.919 --> 00:03:06.560
<v Speaker 2>That is the message from a new study in the

62
00:03:06.599 --> 00:03:09.000

65
00:03:15.800 --> 00:03:19.360
<v Speaker 8>to find many wrinkles or gray hairs, but researchers who've

66
00:03:19.360 --> 00:03:22.280
<v Speaker 8>studied years worth of data have discovered that those sixty

67
00:03:22.280 --> 00:03:25.400
<v Speaker 8>five and over can benefit dramatically from just a little

68
00:03:25.479 --> 00:03:28.599
<v Speaker 8>physical activity. Their study finds that one hundred and fifty

69
00:03:28.639 --> 00:03:31.879
<v Speaker 8>minutes per week of moderate exercise like a brisk walk

70
00:03:32.000 --> 00:03:34.479
<v Speaker 8>or dancing can reduce the risk of death from any

71
00:03:34.520 --> 00:03:37.800
<v Speaker 8>cause by thirty one percent. Jim Ryan ABC.

72
00:03:37.879 --> 00:03:39.919
<v Speaker 2>Some clouds as we head into the evening, although the

73
00:03:39.960 --> 00:03:42.560
<v Speaker 2>sunshines hanging around here late in the afternoon, so you

74
00:03:42.599 --> 00:03:45.719
<v Speaker 2>may need the sunglasses for the ride home if you're

75
00:03:45.840 --> 00:03:48.919
<v Speaker 2>facing west, and then as those clouds come in tonight,

76
00:03:49.120 --> 00:03:51.639
<v Speaker 2>we'll hang onto the wind. Temperatures aren't going to fall much, though,

77
00:03:51.680 --> 00:03:54.800
<v Speaker 2>probably close to thirty real fields. That'll be the problem

78
00:03:54.800 --> 00:03:56.840
<v Speaker 2>as we fall back into the low twenties and upper

79
00:03:56.840 --> 00:04:00.280
<v Speaker 2>teens in many spots tomorrow a morning snowshower. This is

80
00:04:00.319 --> 00:04:03.039
<v Speaker 2>not going to be a big deal, but whatever deal

81
00:04:03.080 --> 00:04:05.159
<v Speaker 2>it ends up being, could put a couple of slick

82
00:04:05.159 --> 00:04:08.159
<v Speaker 2>spots down on the roadways for your morning commute. Later

83
00:04:08.199 --> 00:04:11.000
<v Speaker 2>in the day, it's windy clouds with some afternoon sun,

84
00:04:11.039 --> 00:04:14.280
<v Speaker 2>temperatures into the upper thirties, and then temperatures falling into

85
00:04:14.319 --> 00:04:17.800
<v Speaker 2>the twenties by sundown Tomorrow. Tomorrow night and into Wednesday

86
00:04:17.879 --> 00:04:20.160
<v Speaker 2>will increase the clouds. We'll drop the attempts to about

87
00:04:20.199 --> 00:04:23.199
<v Speaker 2>twenty degrees and then overnight and into Wednesday morning a

88
00:04:23.240 --> 00:04:26.160
<v Speaker 2>period of snow that could accumulate one to three inches

89
00:04:26.519 --> 00:04:29.279
<v Speaker 2>in some areas. So again, Wednesday morning may feature some

90
00:04:29.439 --> 00:04:32.240
<v Speaker 2>slick travel too cloudy. The rest of Wednesday, a couple

91
00:04:32.240 --> 00:04:34.399
<v Speaker 2>of snow showers, high thirty eight, and then a chili

92
00:04:34.480 --> 00:04:38.079
<v Speaker 2>day on Thursday. Mostly sunny, still windy, temperatures in the

93
00:04:38.079 --> 00:04:40.360
<v Speaker 2>mid twenties, feeling like it's in the teens. Right now,

94
00:04:40.560 --> 00:04:43.959
<v Speaker 2>it is forty degrees in Boston. A legend of the

101
00:04:59.560 --> 00:05:02.439
<v Speaker 9>National Coach of the Year. She's entering her fortieth year

102
00:05:02.480 --> 00:05:04.639
<v Speaker 9>as a coach, with eight hundred career wins in sight

103
00:05:04.759 --> 00:05:06.519
<v Speaker 9>and a win rate above ninety percent.

104
00:05:06.680 --> 00:05:08.720
<v Speaker 1>She says this past year was as much a slog

105
00:05:08.759 --> 00:05:11.720
<v Speaker 1>as any. We had a couple of close games this year.

106
00:05:11.519 --> 00:05:13.920
<v Speaker 9>Which is basically the Donahue version of taking an oult.

107
00:05:13.959 --> 00:05:16.720
<v Speaker 9>Her team hasn't actually lost a game for six years.

108
00:05:16.800 --> 00:05:18.800
<v Speaker 9>I asked her for a coaching secret, and it comes

109
00:05:18.800 --> 00:05:21.680
<v Speaker 9>down to discipline, the hard work of her players, and prep.

110
00:05:21.720 --> 00:05:23.680
<v Speaker 9>I got to be prepared, so as soon as that

111
00:05:23.759 --> 00:05:26.839
<v Speaker 9>practice sends and I'm driving home on my mind's going.

112
00:05:27.079 --> 00:05:28.800
<v Speaker 9>But she says, it's important to know that even though

113
00:05:28.800 --> 00:05:31.040
<v Speaker 9>the carousel has been spinning for years, it could.

114

116
00:05:32.639 --> 00:05:35.959
