- 0:46Speaker 2: get even tougher. I know it already is. You may
- 0:49Speaker 2: be feeling it this morning because they started it. Port
- 0:52Speaker 2: Authority officials say drivers and bus riders should expect more
- 0:55Speaker 2: traffic and a longer ride starting today because of new

- 1:02Speaker 2: new Midtown bus terminal. That will be in action for years,
- 1:07Speaker 2: by the way.
- 1:07Speaker 1: Not just one year, not two. They're saying maybe 10.
- 1:11Speaker 1: That's the rumor?
- 1:12Speaker 2: Yeah. Let's hope that's an exaggeration. How about, you know what?
- 1:15Speaker 1: Construction will never go away, guys. Yes. Wherever you go.
- 1:19Speaker 2: It's always here.

- 1:21Speaker 2: This one is pretty intense. For women's health, a new
- 1:25Speaker 2: study shows ovaries still play an important role after menopause.
- 1:29Speaker 2: A woman's ovaries stop releasing eggs after menopause. They don't
- 1:33Speaker 2: stop working. It's kind of like their roles change, according
- 1:37Speaker 2: to the studies from doctors. This was published on Wednesday
- 1:41Speaker 2: in the medical journal Aging Cell. It shows ovaries get
- 1:44Speaker 2: busy maintaining tissue and cell structure. lipid metabolism, immunity, and inflammation.
- 1:50Speaker 2: So researchers say it turns out that for ovaries, menopause
- 1:54Speaker 2: is more like a career change than retirement. In sports,
- 1:58Speaker 2: the locals are off tonight, but we have Thursday night football.
- 2:00Speaker 2: Seahawks play the Broncos at 8.15. And uh-oh, we're not
- 2:04Speaker 2: supposed to take naps in the afternoon.
- 2:06Speaker 1: Oh, that's a good thing. I thought it was going
- 2:07Speaker 1: to be a bad thing because I don't take naps.
- 2:09Speaker 2: You don't have time. So it's actually better for you.
- 2:12Speaker 2: A new study tracked 1,000 older Americans for up to
- 2:15Speaker 2: a decade. They found that people who nap most days
- 2:18Speaker 2: or every day had a 48% higher risk of developing
- 2:21Speaker 2: dementia than people who rarely or never napped. Well, now what?
- 2:27Speaker 2: That doesn't sound good.
- 2:28Speaker 1: Well, you have to wait till next week when the
- 2:30Speaker 1: story comes out that napping is great for you.
- 2:33Speaker 2: Yeah, because sleep deprivation is harmful.
- 2:36Speaker 1: Yeah, I think we're in a different boat because we
- 2:38Speaker 1: don't sleep much at night. And I don't nap just
- 2:41Speaker 1: because like the kids and all that. But would I
- 2:43Speaker 1: like to nap? Absolutely. Oh, yeah.
