- 5:31rule him out for the remainder of the game. Ibsen
- 5:35was a key player serving as a top kickoff returner
- 5:38and number three option at running back. After

- 5:48roster. In top news, researchers from Purdue
- 5:54University are preparing to travel to the South
- 5:57Pacific to investigate a visual anomaly. that
- 6:00may be the long -lost plane of famed aviator

- 6:09Object, is located in a lagoon on Nkumaroro,
- 6:13a small island in Kiribati. Earhart disappeared
- 6:17on July 2, 1937, during her attempt to become
- 6:21the first female pilot to circumnavigate the
- 6:24globe. The team will conduct an inspection in
- 6:27November using photographs, videos, magnetometers,

- 7:02drive -through wait times, averaging 7 minutes.
- 7:07In comparison, Taco Bell averages just over 4
- 7:11minutes. However, when accounting for traffic,
- 7:14Chick -fil -A's efficiency shines, clocking in

- 7:27-A excels in order accuracy, food quality, and
- 7:30friendliness. In crypto movement, Bitcoin is

- 8:39Let's talk tech. Apple Watch's blood oxygen feature
- 8:44returns in iOS 18 .6 .1 and WatchOS 11 .6 .1.
- 8:51This update re -enables the feature on Series
- 8:549, Series 10, and Ultra 2 watches, but with changes.
- 8:59Last year, Apple made the bold decision to remove
- 9:02the blood oxygen feature from the Apple Watch
- 9:05Series 9 and Ultra 2 in the United States due
- 9:09to a patent dispute with Massimo. Now, users
- 9:13will have access to the redesigned feature by
- 9:15updating their paired iPhone and Apple Watch.
- 9:20Results can be viewed in the respiratory section
- 9:22of the health app with older watches remaining
- 9:24unaffected. And in entertainment news, Mutch
- 9:31Cassidy lived long after the famous gunfight
- 9:34in South America. We aim to correct an old Utah
- 9:39myth that Butch and Sundance were killed in that
- 9:42gunfight. We can confidently say that Butch Cassidy
- 9:46made it safely home to Utah a few years after
- 9:50that gunfight. Local families rode with Butch
- 9:54and Sundance before they fled to South America
- 9:56in 1901. It's been said a local teenager was
- 10:01excited to see the new Ford Model T driven by
- 10:05a butch in town. He was celebrated by the neighbors.
- 10:09When he died in 1937, friends and family buried
- 10:13him in an unmarked grave. Well, all righty, folks.
- 10:18It's time for the quote of the day. And today,
- 10:22our quote comes from the Irish playwright and
- 10:24critic, George Bernard Shaw. And he said, progress
- 10:29is impossible without change. and those who cannot
- 10:32change their minds cannot change anything. And
- 10:37that's a wrap for this morning. You can check
- 10:40out our Instagram, YouTube, and TikTok for some
- 10:44captivating aerial videos with local news and
