A Bear Takes A Peach At A Military Base, and guess what it left

0:03 Caalaroga Shock Media. Hey there, I'm Johnny mag with five good news stories. Here's a question. Does a bear poop in an air force base if nobody's around to see it? A black bear paid an unexpected visit to a shopping mall on an Alaskan military base and left behind something. The bear wandered into the Exchange shopping mall at Joint Base Elmendorf Richardson, better known as JBER, on a Sunday morning. The bear stopped off at the commissary, where it helped itself to a peach, just one peach. The bear's not greedy, and then it went on the floor. The bear's pooping was caught by security cameras. Base officials say that conservation law enforcement officers responded and safely escorted the bear away from the shopping area and back into the woods. No people or bears were injured, and I helped the bear.

0:55 Enjoyed the bear. In Australia, a city's hoping that they set a new Guinness World Record after bringing together more than six hundred trombone players. It's not seventy six trombones, it's six hundred trombones. But what did they play seventy six trombones from the music Man. The ensemble included students, members of community bands, orchestras and musicians from across Queensland and beyond. If the record is confirmed, it will shatter the existing record, which is a mere three hundred and sixty eight trombone players, which was set in Washington, d C. In twenty twelve. The mayor said this record etempt was about much more than the numbers. It was about showcasing the power of music in a city that embraces culture. A fifteen year old student in India turned a family accident into a technology project aimed at making roads safer.

1:41 Parth is the boy's name. He created an artificial intelligence powered app called Project Sedesak that helps people report potholes directly to local authorities. We can need this in New Jersey. The idea came after his parents were involved in a motorcycle accident caused by one of those besky potholes. The app allows users to take a photo of a potter and automatically tag its location using GPS. Artificial intelligence verifies that the image is actually a pothole. Can you imagine uploading fake potholes? I guess people would do that, and then humans assign it a severity rating ranging from minor to severe or in New Jersey to we'll get around to that someday. Once a report is complete, the app drafts an email, digitally signs it with the user's name, and sends it to the appropriate government office. Thanks to the app, eleven potholes have already been repaired. Meanwhile, another young man, Rishi, set out to learn more about World War II. He has spent the last decade preserving American history.

2:35 He was just out of high school when he began traveling around Sokal to interview combat veterans about their experiences during World War Two and again do the math on World War Two veterans. Not too many left. Ten years later, Sharma has interviewed more than three thousand World War Two veterans. He recently spoke with a one hundred year old survivor of the Battle of Iwujima. Rishi said, I have spent every day of the last ten years doing this. Nice job. By Hey, Jacob, he emptied his savings account he'd been putting it aside to buy a house. He wanted to take his eighty year old grandfather Jeff to the World Cup. Jacob and Grandpa been attending matches together since Jacob was a little boy. He decided it was finally his turn to return the favor. They live in England. They traveled to New York, Atlanta, and Mexico City. They were there when England won three to two over Mexico. That must have been a lot of fun. As their journey unfolded, videos of the grandfather and grandson went viral on social media.

3:28 A US based cryptocurrency casino contacted them and said they'd reimburse the money if England defeated Panama buy more than two goals. I like how they put a condition on it, right, England only won two. Nothing. See, the casino had said more than two goals, so Jacob assumed the offer had fallen through. So the company came back and said, all right, we'll pay you if England beats Congo. Jacob explained, I didn't quite believe it, but to be honest, until I looked at my bank and it was there, I was in shock. They did pay ten thousand pounds because England did defeat Congo. He said, I think I'll save the money until I get back home. I'll put into a savings account for now and see what happens over the next couple of months. I could buy a house. Anything is possible. Those are five good news stories for today.
