00:00:03.200 --> 00:00:11.400
Kalaroga Shark Media. Hi, I
am Johnny mag with five good news stories.

2
00:00:11.439 --> 00:00:16.519
I love this first story good news. If you're a spy pigeon,

3
00:00:16.839 --> 00:00:22.960
you've gotten out of attention. Indian
police have cleared a suspected Chinese spy pigeon

4
00:00:23.039 --> 00:00:27.600
after eight months attention and released it
into the wild. Back in May.

5
00:00:28.320 --> 00:00:32.479
The pigeon was captured near a portin
Mumbai with two rings tied to its legs

6
00:00:32.520 --> 00:00:37.920
carrying words that looked like Chinese.
Police suspected it was involved in espionage and

7
00:00:38.000 --> 00:00:41.759
took it in. They later sent
it to the hospital for Animals. Eventually

8
00:00:42.200 --> 00:00:45.399
it turned out the pigeon's not a
spy pigeon at all. By the way,

9
00:00:45.399 --> 00:00:48.560
I just bought the Netflix rights to
a movie called Spy Pigeon. It

10
00:00:48.600 --> 00:00:52.799
turned out the pigeon was an open
water racing bird from Taiwan that had escaped

11
00:00:52.799 --> 00:00:56.439
and made its way to India with
police permission. The bird was transferred to

12
00:00:56.479 --> 00:01:00.520
the Bombay Society for the Prevention of
Cruelty and Animals, whose doctors set it

13
00:01:00.640 --> 00:01:03.879
free. Exactly what a spy pigeons
cover would be. Isn't it good news?

14
00:01:03.959 --> 00:01:10.359
We may have found Amelia Earhart's plane
eighty seven years after her disappearance.

15
00:01:10.560 --> 00:01:15.280
Deep Sea Vision is an ocean exploration
company and they found something sixteen thousand feet

16
00:01:15.319 --> 00:01:21.120
below the sea. They think it
could be Amelia Earhart's Locky ten E Electra

17
00:01:21.239 --> 00:01:26.000
aircraft that she was piloting. The
wonderfully named Tony Romeo is the company's CEO,

18
00:01:26.040 --> 00:01:30.439
a pilot, and former US Air
Force intelligence officer, and he gives

19
00:01:30.480 --> 00:01:33.599
good quote. He said, some
people call it one of the greatest mysteries

20
00:01:33.640 --> 00:01:37.439
of all time. I think it
actually is the greatest mystery of all time.

21
00:01:37.640 --> 00:01:41.239
The discovery was made with sonar,
Romeo said, we always felt that

22
00:01:41.319 --> 00:01:44.680
Airhart would have made every attempt to
land the aircraft gently on the water.

23
00:01:44.959 --> 00:01:48.239
The sonar image suggests that may be
the case. They're going to return to

24
00:01:48.239 --> 00:01:49.719
the area and look into this some
more. They're hoping to get a visual

25
00:01:49.760 --> 00:01:55.439
confirmation of the serial number n R
one six zero two zero printed underneath the

26
00:01:55.439 --> 00:01:59.239
wing of the Tenney Electra. Could
be possible. Because it's sixteen thousand feet

27
00:01:59.239 --> 00:02:02.319
below the surface, objects can be
preserved for long periods of time. If

28
00:02:02.319 --> 00:02:05.840
it is Amelia's plain, they hope
to get it out of the ocean and

29
00:02:05.879 --> 00:02:09.039
bring it to the Smithsonian Institute.
Wouldn't that be neat? Some volunteer knitters

30
00:02:09.080 --> 00:02:15.800
are completing unfinished projects left behind by
deceased love ones. Jennifer and Mazie have

31
00:02:15.919 --> 00:02:22.159
found that a heartwarming nonprofit called the
Loose Ends Project recognizing the sentimental value of

32
00:02:22.199 --> 00:02:25.479
handmade gifts and heirlooms. The organization
aims to complete unfinished projects left behind by

33
00:02:25.560 --> 00:02:30.639
late loved ones. The Loose Ends
Project has successfully completed over two thousand projects.

34
00:02:30.759 --> 00:02:35.919
Nice Marshall Roberts and her team have
been working on the Doll for All.

35
00:02:36.000 --> 00:02:38.639
It's the prototype of a doll that
ultimately can be made to fully embody

36
00:02:38.680 --> 00:02:43.280
any disabled child. The first dolls, Evy and Max, are designed with

37
00:02:43.319 --> 00:02:46.439
limb differences in mind. The Doll
for All design now has an eighteen inch

38
00:02:46.520 --> 00:02:51.039
vinyl doll made out of a total
of seventy one parts with over thirty joints

39
00:02:51.039 --> 00:02:53.960
in specifications. This is in contrast
to similar dolls which usually can only move

40
00:02:53.960 --> 00:02:58.719
at the hips and shoulders. Spokesperson
says since they're individually assembled to looks so

41
00:02:58.800 --> 00:03:00.680
much like the child the cherishes them, they're intended to be passed down from

42
00:03:00.719 --> 00:03:08.240
generation to generation and good news if
you like giant Ferris wheels and new enormous

43
00:03:08.240 --> 00:03:12.479
Ferris wheels going up in South Korea. It's going to break the record for

44
00:03:12.520 --> 00:03:15.599
the world's largest. This one dwarfs
the London Eye. This is the sole

45
00:03:15.879 --> 00:03:21.719
TWINEE will stand five hundred and ninety
one feet high. That's forty feet taller

46
00:03:21.719 --> 00:03:24.560
than the Washington Monument. But it's
got a radical design. It won't have

47
00:03:24.599 --> 00:03:30.280
a single supporting spoke. It was
designed by Dutch firm UNStudio. It's a

48
00:03:30.319 --> 00:03:36.520
spokeless Firris wheel with two intersecting rings. Each ring carries pods that seamlessly revolve

49
00:03:36.520 --> 00:03:39.560
around the inside and outside tracks.
It can provide rides to more than fourteen

50
00:03:39.639 --> 00:03:45.439
hundred people simultaneously. That's double the
capacity of the London one. I was

51
00:03:45.479 --> 00:03:47.400
on one of these in Melbourne,
Australia. I think they actually tore it

52
00:03:47.439 --> 00:03:51.800
down. It's at least closed.
The day I went. I think I

53
00:03:51.840 --> 00:03:53.759
had the entire thing to myself.
I definitely had the car to myself,

54
00:03:53.800 --> 00:03:58.520
and it was heavily designed to hold
more people than just me. The Sole

55
00:03:58.639 --> 00:04:01.639
Metropolitan Government says it plans to begin
to instruction on theirs and twenty twenty five

56
00:04:02.000 --> 00:04:05.960
The proposal also includes plans to build
a monorail, which means I'm not gonna

57
00:04:05.960 --> 00:04:10.960
be singing the Simpsons song for the
rest of the day, Monarel. That's

58
00:04:10.960 --> 00:04:13.879
your five good news stories for today. If you enjoy the program, more

59
00:04:13.960 --> 00:04:15.959
monorails. Tell a friend about the
show. They might like it too.

60
00:04:16.079 --> 00:04:17.399
You have a great day, Monorarel.
