<v Speaker 1>This is WBZ, Boston's news radio, redefining local news.

2
00:00:10.679 --> 00:00:13.960
<v Speaker 2>Thirty two degrees in Boston at four o'clock. Good afternoon,

3
00:00:14.000 --> 00:00:18.000
<v Speaker 2>I'm Ben Parker. Here's what's happening, thoughts. Taking it on

4
00:00:18.079 --> 00:00:20.679
<v Speaker 2>the Chin today on Wall Straight after President Trump says

5
00:00:20.719 --> 00:00:24.879
<v Speaker 2>tariffs against Mexico and Canada will start tomorrow, Bloomberg's Tracy

6
00:00:25.120 --> 00:00:28.239
<v Speaker 2>Junkie joins us as the markets have just rung the

7
00:00:28.239 --> 00:00:31.320
<v Speaker 2>closing bell, We're off the lows that the closed, Tracy,

8
00:00:31.399 --> 00:00:32.320
<v Speaker 2>but whoop de doo.

9
00:00:33.439 --> 00:00:35.960
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I mean it's a difference between nine hundred point

10
00:00:36.000 --> 00:00:38.039
<v Speaker 3>loss for the Dell and what we have at the

11
00:00:38.079 --> 00:00:41.119
<v Speaker 3>closed six hundred and forty nine. It is a large

12
00:00:41.119 --> 00:00:44.280
<v Speaker 3>loss either way. Nasda's down four ninety seven, the SMP

13
00:00:44.880 --> 00:00:47.359
<v Speaker 3>down one oh five. And like you said, it's clear

14
00:00:47.399 --> 00:00:49.399
<v Speaker 3>that many of the market had been hoping for an

15
00:00:49.439 --> 00:00:52.439
<v Speaker 3>eleventh hour change of heart from President Trump and that

16
00:00:52.880 --> 00:00:55.799
<v Speaker 3>triffs of twenty five percent on Canada and Mexico and

17
00:00:55.880 --> 00:00:58.359
<v Speaker 3>this plan to double his tariffs on China would not

18
00:00:58.399 --> 00:01:01.200
<v Speaker 3>go into effect. Instead, the President has signed an order

19
00:01:01.640 --> 00:01:04.319
<v Speaker 3>sending the Chinese tariffs at twenty percent, and he says

20
00:01:04.319 --> 00:01:07.799
<v Speaker 3>the Canadian, ad Mexican tariffs. We'll kick in as scheduled tomorrow.

21
00:01:07.920 --> 00:01:10.159
<v Speaker 2>Ben, all right, we'll keep tabs on the terraff issues.

22
00:01:10.239 --> 00:01:12.680
<v Speaker 2>Of course, we'll get back to Tracy shortly as Wall

23
00:01:12.719 --> 00:01:16.159
<v Speaker 2>Street kind of falls on its face this afternoon. Meantime,

24
00:01:16.400 --> 00:01:20.840
<v Speaker 2>a major investment into semiconducting manufacturing in the US. ABC's

25
00:01:20.879 --> 00:01:23.680
<v Speaker 2>Karen Travers has more on an announcement from the White House.

26
00:01:23.760 --> 00:01:26.239
<v Speaker 4>President Trump today is announcing a one hundred billion dollar

27
00:01:26.319 --> 00:01:28.599
<v Speaker 4>investment in the US over the next four years by

28
00:01:28.599 --> 00:01:33.560
<v Speaker 4>a chip maker. Taiwan semiconductor manufacturing company TSMC first announced

29
00:01:33.599 --> 00:01:36.040
<v Speaker 4>in twenty twenty it would break ground on a semiconductor

30
00:01:36.079 --> 00:01:39.480
<v Speaker 4>manufacturing facility in Arizona. It has since pledged sixty five

31
00:01:39.519 --> 00:01:42.359
<v Speaker 4>billion dollars in investments in that state, calling it the

32
00:01:42.439 --> 00:01:46.079
<v Speaker 4>largest foreign direct investment in Arizona's history. It's not immediately

33
00:01:46.079 --> 00:01:48.239
<v Speaker 4>clear how much of the one hundred billion the company's

34
00:01:48.239 --> 00:01:52.200
<v Speaker 4>announcing today is part of previous commitments. TSMC also benefited

35
00:01:52.200 --> 00:01:54.200
<v Speaker 4>from a six point six billion dollar grant from the

36
00:01:54.239 --> 00:01:57.359
<v Speaker 4>Biden administration last year from the Chips and Science Act.

00:02:05.879 --> 00:02:08.840
<v Speaker 1>Several US officials tel CBS News the order came from

42
00:02:13.560 --> 00:02:16.759

43
00:02:16.800 --> 00:02:19.639
<v Speaker 1>long it will last, nor what the motivation behind the

44
00:02:19.719 --> 00:02:23.639
<v Speaker 1>move is. High ranking Republican lawmaker and the president's national

45
00:02:23.680 --> 00:02:26.439
<v Speaker 1>security advisor both say they were unaware of the order,

46
00:02:26.719 --> 00:02:29.479
<v Speaker 1>which comes as President Trump tries to negotiate an end

47
00:02:29.479 --> 00:02:34.039
<v Speaker 1>to Russia's war with Ukraine. Peter King's CBS News Health

<v Speaker 5>Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Junior wrote

52
00:02:43.439 --> 00:02:46.000
<v Speaker 5>an opinion piece published by Fox News in which he

53
00:02:46.039 --> 00:02:49.240
<v Speaker 5>says he's deeply concerned about the recent measles outbreak. He wrote,

54
00:02:49.319 --> 00:02:52.560
<v Speaker 5>vaccines not only protect individual children from measles, but also

55
00:02:52.560 --> 00:02:55.840
<v Speaker 5>contribute to community immunity. The outbreak is in the Southwest,

56
00:02:55.960 --> 00:02:59.280
<v Speaker 5>mostly in Texas, with an unvaccinateed child dying last week.

<v Speaker 5>claiming is used were mischaracterized and insisting he was advocating

59
00:03:05.759 --> 00:03:09.479
<v Speaker 5>for common sense policies. Matt Piper, CBS News, It's going to.

74
00:03:49.680 --> 00:03:51.280
<v Speaker 2>want when you get off a long flight is to

75
00:03:51.319 --> 00:03:53.520
<v Speaker 2>be held up at customs or at the baggage claim.

<v Speaker 2>Wbsy's Nicol Davis tells US a traveler had to deal

77
00:03:56.639 --> 00:03:59.479
<v Speaker 2>with a whole different problem after she got to Boston

78
00:03:59.560 --> 00:04:00.120
<v Speaker 2>last night.

79
00:04:00.199 --> 00:04:02.199
<v Speaker 6>It was about seven point thirty when State Pelay a

80
00:04:02.240 --> 00:04:04.639
<v Speaker 6>woman was making her way through customs at Terminal E,

81
00:04:04.919 --> 00:04:08.479
<v Speaker 6>the International terminal at Logan Airport. Officials say when she

82
00:04:08.560 --> 00:04:12.039
<v Speaker 6>was gathering her luggage, she was somehow stung by a scorpion.

83
00:04:12.400 --> 00:04:14.599
<v Speaker 6>Now police say the woman was taken to the hospital

84
00:04:14.639 --> 00:04:17.279
<v Speaker 6>for treatment. We don't know how severely she was hurt.

85
00:04:17.519 --> 00:04:20.120
<v Speaker 6>We don't know where the scorpions stung her. We also

86
00:04:20.199 --> 00:04:22.920
<v Speaker 6>don't know how the scorpion got there in the first place,

87
00:04:22.959 --> 00:04:25.560
<v Speaker 6>whether it was in her luggage or in somebody else's.

88
00:04:25.800 --> 00:04:28.680
<v Speaker 6>Now experts say scorpions are rare in this part of

89
00:04:28.680 --> 00:04:30.800
<v Speaker 6>the world, but you can find them on almost every

90
00:04:30.839 --> 00:04:34.360
<v Speaker 6>single continent save for Antarctica. Stings can be painful and

91
00:04:34.439 --> 00:04:37.560
<v Speaker 6>potentially deadly. Officials say they could lead to problems with

92
00:04:37.600 --> 00:04:41.160
<v Speaker 6>your heart, neurological issues, or organ problems, but the CDC

93
00:04:41.279 --> 00:04:45.040
<v Speaker 6>says most stings from scorpions are not that serious. Nicole

<v Speaker 7>with chistop.

100
00:04:59.759 --> 00:05:02.800
<v Speaker 8>Saw Luxer Cafe opened in Harvard Square almost a year ago,

101
00:05:02.959 --> 00:05:05.720
<v Speaker 8>bringing wal food and Egyptian classics to the neighborhood.

102
00:05:05.759 --> 00:05:08.920
<v Speaker 7>We have some traditional dishes that are however she it's

103
00:05:08.959 --> 00:05:12.319
<v Speaker 7>like a minced ground beef stuffed in feeder bread or

104
00:05:12.399 --> 00:05:13.920
<v Speaker 7>kipdo which is like a liver sandwich.

105
00:05:13.959 --> 00:05:16.639
<v Speaker 8>And for Ramedan owner up to Kalman Hassan is keeping

106
00:05:16.680 --> 00:05:19.040
<v Speaker 8>the place open until two am, modeling it off of

107
00:05:19.040 --> 00:05:20.439
<v Speaker 8>the cafes you'd find in Egypt.

108
00:05:20.480 --> 00:05:23.079
<v Speaker 7>You'll meet people, you'll hang out with people. It'll be

109
00:05:23.079 --> 00:05:24.839
<v Speaker 7>like a place to play card games. You just make

110
00:05:24.879 --> 00:05:25.399
<v Speaker 7>friends there.

111
00:05:25.439 --> 00:05:28.160
<v Speaker 8>After fasting all day, Muslims share a meal before prayer

112
00:05:28.240 --> 00:05:30.279
<v Speaker 8>and then normally they don't have anywhere to go since

113
00:05:30.319 --> 00:05:33.439
<v Speaker 8>most places are closed. Hassan says staying openly gives people

114
00:05:33.519 --> 00:05:35.720
<v Speaker 8>celebrating Ramadan a place to meet up with friends.

115
00:05:35.759 --> 00:05:37.800
<v Speaker 7>I think it's important for to have this kind of

116
00:05:37.800 --> 00:05:40.519
<v Speaker 7>space for Muslims or non Muslims or anyone interested. It

117
00:05:40.600 --> 00:05:42.079
<v Speaker 7>kind of gives you an idea of what you would

118
00:05:42.079 --> 00:05:43.279
<v Speaker 7>expect at a different country.

119

120
00:05:46.560 --> 00:05:49.920
<v Speaker 2>There are laser printers, laser hair removal, laser light shows,

121
00:05:50.079 --> 00:05:54.399
<v Speaker 2>lasers for lots of medical procedures. How about lasers for turkeys.

122
00:05:54.920 --> 00:05:57.680
<v Speaker 2>Some turkey farmers are using lasers as a new weapon

123
00:05:57.680 --> 00:05:58.720
<v Speaker 2>against bird flu.

124
00:05:58.879 --> 00:06:01.439
<v Speaker 9>It sounds like something out of an Austin Powers movie

125
00:06:01.639 --> 00:06:07.360
<v Speaker 9>by the lights, but the president of the Minnesota Turkey

126
00:06:07.399 --> 00:06:10.639
<v Speaker 9>Growers Association, Jake Vlaminck, says, the lasers work.

127
00:06:10.800 --> 00:06:12.519
<v Speaker 2>To me, it's been a big difference and I've seen

128
00:06:12.560 --> 00:06:13.920
<v Speaker 2>it results throughout the state.

129
00:06:14.000 --> 00:06:17.279
<v Speaker 9>Farmers install the lasers atop their barns and windmills, and

130
00:06:17.360 --> 00:06:20.279
<v Speaker 9>the green streaks of lights scare away ducks and geese,

131
00:06:20.319 --> 00:06:21.839
<v Speaker 9>the main carriers of bird flu.

132
00:06:22.000 --> 00:06:24.839
<v Speaker 2>We've been able to cut our mortality down in about half,

133
00:06:25.040 --> 00:06:26.399
<v Speaker 2>and I want to tribute a lot of that to

134
00:06:26.480 --> 00:06:27.160
<v Speaker 2>these lasers.
