• 3:24
  open daily from 7 in the morning to 5 in the

  evening. Now on to sports. San Francisco 49ers
• 3:37
  running back Christian McCaffrey had a stellar
• 3:40
  comeback last season after playing just four
• 3:43
  games in 2024 due to a knee injury. Concerns
• 3:47
  about his explosiveness and agility were quickly
• 3:50
  put to bed as McCaffrey tallied 2 ,126 yards
• 3:55
  and 17 touchdowns. He was named to the All -Pro
• 3:59
  First Team for the third time and the Pro Bowl
• 4:02
  for the fourth time. also earning the title of
• 4:05
  Comeback Player of the Year. The 49ers added
• 4:09
  another threat with a signing of wide receiver
• 4:11
  Mike Evans to a three -year $42 .4 million deal.
• 4:17
  According to Sports Illustrated's Connor Orr,
• 4:20
  McCaffrey will benefit from Evans' addition,
• 4:22
  boosting their Super Bowl odds. Evans will be
• 4:26
  another red zone weapon for San Francisco, utilizing
• 4:29
  his physicality and experience. With McCaffrey
• 4:33
  healthy, the 49ers recorded a 12 -5 record last
• 4:37
  season, but fell short in the playoffs against
• 4:40
  the Seattle Seahawks. McCaffrey has been working
• 4:43
  hard in the offseason, ready to carry a heavy
• 4:46
  load again for the Niners. With Evans by his
• 4:49
  side, consider that a fair warning. In local
• 4:53
  sports, the Red Sox are riding something special.
• 4:57
  They knocked off Baltimore 6 -5, Monday night
• 5:01
  at Fenway, extending their winning streak to
• 5:04
  14 straight games. Wilson Contreras went 3 for
• 5:08
  4 with 2 RBS, and closer Oroldis Chapman notched
• 5:13
  his 20 -second save. Today's a doubleheader against
• 5:17
  the Orioles, first pitch at 135, nightcap at
• 5:21
  710. Jake Bennett takes the mound for Boston
• 5:25
  with the Sox looking to stay hot -heading into
• 5:28
  the second half. At 51 and 48, they're right
• 5:33
  in the thick of the East Race, and this momentum
• 5:36
  is exactly what they needed. On the trade front,
• 5:40
  the Red Sox are exploring upgrades with Oakland's
• 5:43
  catcher, Shay Langeliers, emerging as a prime
• 5:46
  target. Langeliers is slashing 260 with 22 homers
• 5:52
  in 90 games, and his right -handed, pull -swing
• 5:56
  fits Fenway like a glove. The Athletics haven't
• 5:59
  locked up through 2028, but ESPN reports Boston
• 6:04
  is viewed as a top landing spot. The Sox got
• 6:08
  good news on the injury front, too. Ranger Suarez

  the James Webb Space Telescope, astronomers have
• 9:39
  uncovered the secrets of early galaxies that
• 9:42
  filled the infant cosmos with vital stardust.
• 9:46
  Team leader Claudio Gavetti stated, directly
• 9:49
  studying the galaxies that populated the early
• 9:52
  universe is still very difficult. To overcome
• 9:56
  this, researchers turned to Sextanza, a dwarf
• 9:59
  galaxy just 4 .6 million light -years away, which
• 10:03
  mimics the chemical conditions of ancient galaxies.
• 10:07
  Their findings revealed that about 90 % of stars
• 10:10
  in this galaxy's asymptotic red giant branch
• 10:13
  were devoid of dust, while some were encased
• 10:16
  in thick dust shells. This research enhances
• 10:19
  our understanding of how early stars created
• 10:22
  the metals essential for future generations.
• 10:28

• 11:22

• 12:06
  and Elliot have leveled up from interns to icons
• 12:09
  at Sacred Heart. The series is now available
• 12:12
  for streaming on Disney Plus and Hulu. Well,
• 12:17
  all righty, folks. It's time for the quote of
• 12:19
  the day. And today, our quote comes from the
• 12:23
  American author and motivational speaker, Zig
• 12:27
  Ziglar. And he said, success means doing the
• 12:31
  best we can with what we have. Success is the
• 12:35
  doing, not the getting, and the trying, not the
• 12:38
  triumph. Success is a personal standard, reaching
• 12:41
  for the highest that is in us, becoming all that
• 12:44
  we can be. And that's a wrap for this morning.
