She walks us through her innovative $2,500 treatment that tackles all signs of skin aging, with actress Tracy Toms testifying to the results.
Our next stop is Australia, where we celebrate Ken Weeks, the country's oldest man at 110 years, who has a love for baked beans like no other. Heinz honored Ken's unwavering devotion with a specially designed can featuring his portrait.
Then, we travel back in time to discover that red hair has been around for 10 million years, as evidenced by the molecular remnants of pheomelanin found in ancient frog fossils. Paleontologists Dr. Slater gives insight into how this revelation will shape our understanding of animal evolution and coloration.
Coffee lovers will rejoice at our next story, where the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition suggests that an extra cup of unsweetened coffee a day could aid weight loss.
We close with the humorous account of Kevin, a Brooklyn resident whose journey to an upstate New York wedding was interrupted by an unexpected hitchhiker - a rat. Listen in and enjoy these positive tales.

0:02 The Shark Deck. Hello again, I'm Johnny Mack with five good news stories. One Los Angeles plastic surgeon did thirty percent more facelifts during the recent Hollywood Strikes Wow. Doctor Tess Mauricio said, some of my patients expected a resolution would come within a month or two, so they didn't really feel financially strapped to be conservative with their spending. She explained. The twenty five hundred dollars treatment is a combination of advanced energy based skin resurfacing, which requires up to five days of downtime, and it utilizes lasers and radio frequencies, growth factors via platelet rich plasm and collagen induction therapy. She adds this can address all signs of skin aging, including wrinkles, sagging skin, ibags, droopy eyelids, and large pores. Actress Tracy Thoms told The Hollywood Reporter, I was swollen, I couldn't wear makeup for a few days, and it takes time to look like yourself again. The time Machine procedure help refresh my skin and this was the time to do it. Ken Weeks turned one hundred and ten years old, officially Australia's oldest man, and he loved baking beads since he was a young boy. He loved him in school, he loved him when he married his wife, Jean, and after Jean passed away, he still loved him. Ken's son, Ian said, after mom died, he bachelored himself and he liked a full breakfast, so baked beans on toast was irregular.
1:21 Ken was still a resident in his family house until his one hundredth birthday, but around one hundred and five, working the can opener became a bit of a problem, so Ken moved into residential care, but that didn't stop his love of bake beans. Over at Hines, they heard of his devotion, they decided to honor him with his own can. Andrea Payne, head of marketing at Hines, said, we started the work designing the cans with a portrait of Ken and a personalized message, and in order to not disrupt normal production, each label was hand applied in time for Ken's birthday. A total of three hundred cans were made, enough for everyone at Ken's facility to get some beans for the next six months. What's Ken's secret to longevity? Come on figure it out. Bake beans a good news if you have red hair. It's been around for ten million years. Paleontologists discovered molecular evidence of theomelanin the pigment that causes the coloration. They found it in some fossilized frogs that are ten million years old. Doctor Slater says the finding of soak siding because it puts palaeontologists in a better place to detect different melanin pigments and many more fossils. This will paint a more accurate picture of ancient animal color and will answer important questions about the evolution of color and animals. In humans, red hair is specifically mentioned in people's as far back as ancient Greece. Roughly ten percent of the population are red added hey, good news for me.
2:38 Experts claim that drinking an extra cup of coffee every day could help with weight loss. Done the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition is found that adding an extra cup of unsweetened coffee unsweetened coffee, ah, he is rude? It well anyway, it can reduce the risk of gaining weight over a four year period, but beware, adding sugar is a no no uh. However, adding creamer non dairy coffee did not have an effect either way. Aaron Polinski Wade, a New Jersey based dieitician, said increasing intake of a warm loadino calorie beverage may improve body weight as increasing fluids, especially warm fluids, can help you feel full, which may lead to fewer overall calories consumed throughout the day.
3:22 Hey, good news for a rat. He went for a ride to upstate New York. Kevin was on his way to a wedding. He drove from Brooklyn to the Catskills. He was almost there when suddenly, out of his engine a rat, and he captured this on video. He yelled, Holy heck, I had to go way up state and I brought a rat with me. The rat checked out the side view mirror and then walked back to safety and across the windshield wipers. Then the rat vanished. Kevin pulled over, popped the hood looking for the rat. Then the rat reappeared. Then it ducked into a small hole and he didn't find it again. Kevin eventually got bored and kept driving one hundred and thirty mile trip and said, I don't know where it went. Just don't eat my wires. That's your five good news stories for today.
