  to reveal the brain's mysteries. Disaruth is
• 6:26
  based at Stanford University in California, while

• 6:37
  The prize money this year is 12 million Swedish
• 6:39
  kronor, about 1 .2 million dollars. In business
• 6:45
  news, traders now see little chance of a Federal
• 6:48
  Reserve rate hike in October, following a weaker
• 6:51
  -than -expected September employment report.
• 6:54
  Investors believe there is only a 17 % chance
• 6:58
  that the Fed will increase rates by a quarter
• 7:01
  percentage point. One week ago, those odds were
• 7:04
  close to 36%. The U .S. economy added only 29
• 7:09
  ,000 jobs in September, below estimates of more
• 7:13
  than 80 ,000. Odds for a hike in October also
• 7:17
  fell after the personal consumption expenditures
• 7:20
  price index showed cooler than expected prices.
• 7:23
  While a hike in October seems unlikely, traders
• 7:27
  forecast a raise in December with odds above
• 7:30
  75%. In crypto movement, Bitcoin is down 1 %

  on to a more local vibe. In our community spotlight
• 7:54
  on health and wellness, we are working with a
• 7:57
  national Pilates studio to bring you some free
• 8:00
  classes, so listen up. Check out Club Pilates
• 8:04
  with several locations in the Boston area. Pilates
• 8:08
  presents a comprehensive wellness approach, cultivating

  strength, reducing tension, and elevating mental
• 8:15
  well -being. Scientific research affirms its
• 8:18
  benefits. So now you can check out Club Pilates.
• 8:22
  for a free class. With locations in Canton, Wellesley,
• 8:27
  Hingham, Brookline, and Framingham, just be sure
• 8:30
  to tell them, sunny mornings sent you by. And
• 8:34
  now, back to the show. Let's talk science. An
• 8:40
  extremely well -preserved fossil further fuels
• 8:42
  the debate about the evolution of flight among
• 8:45
  the terrible lizards. This new species, dubbed
• 8:49
  Norellraptor barsboldi, adds to evidence that
• 8:52
  dinosaurs evolved aerodynamic capabilities independently
• 8:56
  multiple times. Researchers found this microraptor
• 9:00
  in northeastern China, dating back 100 million
• 9:04
  to 145 million years ago. The study reveals that
• 9:09
  Anbarsboldi had four wings, a long tail, and
• 9:13
  sharp teeth, and likely feasted on small creatures.
• 9:16
  The findings suggest that flight adaptations
• 9:19
  in dinosaurs and birds developed through different
• 9:22
  evolutionary pathways supporting the idea of
• 9:26
  convergent evolution. And in entertainment news,
• 9:33
  Zoe Saldana reveals she is not ready to take
• 9:36
  on another Taylor Sheridan series due to the
• 9:39
  demanding nature of her role in Lioness. In a
• 9:42
  recent interview, the 48 -year -old actress explained
• 9:46
  that starring in Lioness, is all that I can handle
• 9:49
  at this time." She stated, I am first one in,
• 9:54
  last one out, explaining the extensive preparation
• 9:57
  involved. Saldana expressed gratitude that Sheridan
• 10:01
  knows she is reliable and tough as nails. She
• 10:06
  added, I can't imagine taking on more of a Taylor
• 10:10
  -Sheridan world. Saldana also mentioned uncertainty
• 10:14
  about season four and its direction. Well, all
• 10:18
  righty, folks. It's time for the quote of the
• 10:21
  day. And today, our quote comes from the American
• 10:25
  author and philosopher Ralph Waldo Emerson. And
• 10:30
  he said, the only person you are destined to
• 10:33
  become is the person you decide to be. And that's
• 10:38
  a wrap for this morning. You can check out our
