  drug itself.

  Less common but severe side effects include pancreatitis and allergic reactions.

• 9:01
  And now back to the show.
• 9:05
  Let's talk science.
• 9:07
  In a groundbreaking study, scientists have discovered that mice may possess ultrasonic
• 9:12
  powers, using sound to manipulate nanoparticles and enhance their sense of smell.
• 9:18
  Traditionally, these rodents were thought to use ultrasonic vocalizations solely for
• 9:23
  courtship.
• 9:24
  However, bioacoustics experts observed that mice sniff after producing these sounds,
• 9:31
  suggesting a more complex function.
• 9:34
  This phenomenon, described as creating new pathways of information, could reshape our
• 9:39
  understanding of animal communication and provide insights into manipulating nanoparticles
• 9:45
  with sound.
• 9:47
  As Jessica Jo from Harvard University notes, mice play a crucial role in biological research,
• 9:53
  potentially leading to significant medical advancements.
• 9:57
  And in entertainment news.
• 10:02
  BetaFilm has unveiled a thrilling trailer for Rise of the Raven, an epic 10-part drama
• 10:08
  series centered on the pivotal 15th century battle of Belgrade.
• 10:13
  The show will have its world premiere at Nipcom in Cannes on October 22nd.
• 10:19
  Based on Ben Moore's novels, it chronicles the heroic Gionno Sognati, who halted the
• 10:24
  Ottoman advance in 1456.
• 10:29
  Produced by veteran Robert Lantos, the series boasts an impressive budget, aiming for authenticity
• 10:35
  by honoring the era's languages.
• 10:38
  With stunning period detail, Rise of the Raven promises an engaging portrayal of history,
• 10:44
  treachery and love.
• 10:46
  Well, alrighty folks, it's time for the quote of the day.
• 10:51
  And today, our quote comes from the Albanian humanitarian and missionary, Mother Teresa.
• 10:59
  And she said,
• 11:00
  I have found the paradox that if you love until it hurts, there can be no more hurt,
• 11:07
  only more love.
• 11:10
  And that's a wrap for this morning.
