0:03 Callaroga Shark Media in there. I'm jutting back with five good news stories. The City of Toronto unveiled a series of Taylor swift Way street signs before she played her shows in Toronto. Recently, they were auctioned off, with the money benefiting the Daily Bread Food Bank. The auction raised over two hundred and sixteen thousand dollars. That includes over one hundred and three thousand dollars raised from bidders as well as the pledged matching bid from Rogers. They said, as presenting sponsor of Taylor Swift the Aristour in Canada, Rogers is proud to partner with the City of Toronto and Daily Bread Food Bank to help raise funds for the crucial mission of the food bank. We know every dollar matters, so we've rounded up the donation to contribute one hundred and thirteen thousand, Taylor's favorite number food Bank posted on Facebook. We don't know about you, but today we're feeling twenty two very special reasons to be grateful at a time when more than one in ten people in our city were relying on food banks to make ends.
1:00 The funds raised through this auction will enable us to ensure that the neighbors in need of emergency food support have a place to turn. Thank you to everyone who participated in the auction. Up in Newfoundland, a stellar's sea eagle was spotted. What's interesting about that is the sea eagle is native to Japan, Korea and Russia. It must have flown over thousands of miles to show up in Newfoundland. Up in Teranova National Park, Sandra is a photographer who heard that the bird was sighted. She brought a camera on a boat trip. Unfortunately, on the boat trip they didn't see anything, but returning in their car on the way home, they saw the sea eagle in a pine tree. She told the CBC. I can't explain how exciting it is. It's an incredible feeling to know that the bird has chosen us. That's what it feels like. I wouldn't have liked to have a pet or anything in my arms when he was there. He'd probably take you and the pet.
1:47 Good job. By eight year old Zayan. He is a young skateboarder. He saw some kids picking on a feral kit and then he wanted to stop them. He traded his skateboard for a promise with the other kids they'd leave the animal alone, and it worked, and now the kitten is his best friend. Mom told CBS, he just fell in love with it, and you could see the cat just loved him. According to local news, the manager from the Humane Society found out the story and gave zay In a gift card to buy a new skateboard. Archaeologists are psyched they found the tomb of a conjurer doctor in ancient Sakara. The person was known as the conjurer of the Goddess Sirquette, director of medicinal plants and chief dentist. Sir Quette was a goddess associated with scorpions and protection from their stings. The title director of medicinal plants has only been seen in one other inscription from ancient Egypt, and any reference to dentistry is rare. Phelippe is one of the excavators and said he was certainly the main physician at the royal court, so he would have treated the pharaoh himself. The Egyptian Ministry of Tourism and Antiquity said in a statement. The tomb is adorned with stunning carvings and vibrant artwork, including a beautifully painted false door and scenes of funery offerings. They say the discovery reveals new aspects of the culture of daily life and in the of the old kingdom through texts and drawings found on the walls. The two men have been looted, likely in ancient times, and Happy birthday to Keycause. She she is one hundred and twenty four according to local documents.
3:15 Records say she was born in nineteen oh one. Her family says she's still witty and articulate, despite losing a bit of I sight after she turned at one hundred you know, twenty four years ago Chase. She currently enjoys the company of family members five generations from herself, and lives with her sixty year old granddaughter. Her relatives explain the one hundred and twenty four year old has always kept a discipline routine, eating three meals a day, walking after each meal, and going to sleep at eight pm. Her favorite meal is pumpkin porridge with a spoon of lard on top. Although the doctors say you gotta cut back on the lard, do you. I mean, hey, doc, I don't think that's the problem. This seems to be working just she has joked my siblings husband and sun passed away long ago. The King of Hell must have forgotten about me. And that was your five good news stories for today. Hopefully the King of Hell doesn't find you either. Have a great day.
