00:00:11.280 --> 00:00:12.950
What's up, sunshine? Welcome to the

00:00:12.960 --> 00:00:14.629
show. I'm Cody Wire with your 10 minutes

00:00:14.639 --> 00:00:17.029
of news for Thursday, May 21st. We are

00:00:17.039 --> 00:00:18.870
going from Google giving search a

00:00:18.880 --> 00:00:21.750
futuristic glowup to a storm in Hawaii

00:00:21.760 --> 00:00:24.230
waking up prehistoric dinosaur shrimp

00:00:24.240 --> 00:00:25.670
that honestly look like they're straight

00:00:25.680 --> 00:00:28.070
out of Jurassic Park. Plus, one fearless

00:00:28.080 --> 00:00:30.310
driver chasing one of racing's toughest

00:00:30.320 --> 00:00:33.110
challenges. CNN 10 starts now. And we

00:00:33.120 --> 00:00:34.870
start with the highstakes health

00:00:34.880 --> 00:00:37.270
emergency in Africa, where officials are

00:00:37.280 --> 00:00:39.590
racing to contain a fast-spreading Ebola

00:00:39.600 --> 00:00:41.990
virus outbreak. As of this taping, more

00:00:42.000 --> 00:00:45.350
than 130 people have died. Nearly 600

00:00:45.360 --> 00:00:47.670
suspected cases have been linked to the

00:00:47.680 --> 00:00:49.910
outbreak across parts of the Democratic

00:00:49.920 --> 00:00:53.110
Republic of Congo and Uganda. The public

00:00:53.120 --> 00:00:55.029
health crisis is further complicated by

00:00:55.039 --> 00:00:56.790
the fact that this strain of the virus,

00:00:56.800 --> 00:00:59.910
the Bundy BUJO strain, has no specific

00:00:59.920 --> 00:01:02.150
treatment or vaccine. It's a race

00:01:02.160 --> 00:01:04.310
against the clock to track these cases

00:01:04.320 --> 00:01:06.950
and slow the spread. Our Larry Mado has

00:01:06.960 --> 00:01:08.710
more on how officials are working to

00:01:08.720 --> 00:01:11.910
curb the growing problem. The concern

00:01:11.920 --> 00:01:14.550
from public health experts in the region

00:01:14.560 --> 00:01:16.310
is that there's a likelihood that many

00:01:16.320 --> 00:01:18.950
people could be have could have been

00:01:18.960 --> 00:01:20.469
exposed to Ebola. They're just not

00:01:20.479 --> 00:01:21.670
showing symptoms yet. It might take

00:01:21.680 --> 00:01:23.910
until 3 weeks before that begins to

00:01:23.920 --> 00:01:26.149
happen. This area in it, northeast and

00:01:26.159 --> 00:01:27.749
DRC, which is the epicenter of the

00:01:27.759 --> 00:01:30.310
outbreak, has a lot of insecurity. About

00:01:30.320 --> 00:01:32.149
100,000 people are displaced. It's a

00:01:32.159 --> 00:01:34.230
mining town. There's a lot of border

00:01:34.240 --> 00:01:37.510
traffic between this area in Bonia to

00:01:37.520 --> 00:01:39.429
Uganda across the border. The people

00:01:39.439 --> 00:01:40.950
move back and forth. Some may be

00:01:40.960 --> 00:01:42.630
asymptomatic right now, but in a few

00:01:42.640 --> 00:01:44.390
days or a few weeks, they might begin to

00:01:44.400 --> 00:01:45.990
show symptoms and they might have come

00:01:46.000 --> 00:01:47.990
into contact with a lot of people. So as

00:01:48.000 --> 00:01:50.870
they do more lab lab testing, contact

00:01:50.880 --> 00:01:52.870
tracing and surveillance, the numbers

00:01:52.880 --> 00:01:54.870
might as well skyrocket and that affects

00:01:54.880 --> 00:01:57.190
a huge number of people within these

00:01:57.200 --> 00:01:59.109
countries, Uganda, the Democratic

00:01:59.119 --> 00:02:00.630
Republic of Congo and possibly South

00:02:00.640 --> 00:02:02.709
Sudan as well. And you've seen these

00:02:02.719 --> 00:02:04.469
reported even in Kala, which is a few

00:02:04.479 --> 00:02:06.469
hundred kilometers away. So that is why

00:02:06.479 --> 00:02:08.949
the WHO and many other experts say this

00:02:08.959 --> 00:02:11.270
could be much deeper of an outbreak than

00:02:11.280 --> 00:02:12.710
they currently know and it could have

00:02:12.720 --> 00:02:13.990
already been spreading for a few weeks

00:02:14.000 --> 00:02:15.750
in the community before it was detected

00:02:15.760 --> 00:02:17.350
and confirmed.

00:02:17.360 --> 00:02:19.190
For the first time in more than two

00:02:19.200 --> 00:02:21.190
decades, Google is giving its famous

00:02:21.200 --> 00:02:24.309
search bar a major AI makeover. Users

00:02:24.319 --> 00:02:26.630
can now search with images, videos, and

00:02:26.640 --> 00:02:28.550
even more natural conversational

00:02:28.560 --> 00:02:30.309
questions. Kind of like talking to your

00:02:30.319 --> 00:02:32.150
smartest friend if your smartest friend

00:02:32.160 --> 00:02:34.070
knew literally everything. The company

00:02:34.080 --> 00:02:36.949
is also rolling out AI agents that can

00:02:36.959 --> 00:02:39.589
research and track topics for users

00:02:39.599 --> 00:02:41.750
automatically. It's all part of the tech

00:02:41.760 --> 00:02:44.150
giant's push to keep pace with the AI

00:02:44.160 --> 00:02:47.110
race against competitors like Open AI.

00:02:47.120 --> 00:02:49.430
Now to Hawaii where some rare weather

00:02:49.440 --> 00:02:51.990
led to a shrimply incredible discovery.

00:02:52.000 --> 00:02:54.869
Back in March, a Kona low storm drenched

00:02:54.879 --> 00:02:58.309
the state's driest island of Caho Alave

00:02:58.319 --> 00:03:00.309
just off the coast of Maui. The record

00:03:00.319 --> 00:03:02.309
rainfall transformed the usual dry

00:03:02.319 --> 00:03:04.790
landscape into a temporary wetland,

00:03:04.800 --> 00:03:07.430
awakening a long dormant prehistoric

00:03:07.440 --> 00:03:10.229
species known as dinosaur shrimp. These

00:03:10.239 --> 00:03:12.390
tiny three-eyed crustaceations look like

00:03:12.400 --> 00:03:14.309
a mashup between a horseshoe crab and a

00:03:14.319 --> 00:03:16.309
tadpole in something your science

00:03:16.319 --> 00:03:18.390
teacher might keep in a secret lab. And

00:03:18.400 --> 00:03:20.309
get this, they're literally living

00:03:20.319 --> 00:03:21.990
fossils. They've remained largely

00:03:22.000 --> 00:03:24.949
unchanged for roughly 70 million years.

00:03:24.959 --> 00:03:26.390
That means these little dudes were

00:03:26.400 --> 00:03:28.869
around before the Himalayas were formed.

00:03:28.879 --> 00:03:30.869
Their eggs can stay dormant in dried

00:03:30.879 --> 00:03:32.949
lake beds for years, waiting until the

00:03:32.959 --> 00:03:35.589
perfect rainy day wakeup call arrives.

00:03:35.599 --> 00:03:37.270
Officials with the island's Reserve

00:03:37.280 --> 00:03:39.430
Commission say this is a jaw-dropping

00:03:39.440 --> 00:03:41.750
reminder that ecosystems can change fast

00:03:41.760 --> 00:03:43.830
when mother nature decides to flip the

00:03:43.840 --> 00:03:46.309
script. What came first, the chicken or

00:03:46.319 --> 00:03:49.030
the egg? We may see soon a new twist on

00:03:49.040 --> 00:03:51.030
this excellent question thanks to a

00:03:51.040 --> 00:03:53.190
biotech company working to revive

00:03:53.200 --> 00:03:55.910
extinct species and help save endangered

00:03:55.920 --> 00:03:58.710
birds by developing 3D printed eggshells

00:03:58.720 --> 00:04:01.270
designed to protect fragile embryos.

00:04:01.280 --> 00:04:03.670
Here's our Giana Asterito with more.

00:04:03.680 --> 00:04:05.750
Could these chicks be the key to

00:04:05.760 --> 00:04:07.509
bringing back extinct birds such as the

00:04:07.519 --> 00:04:09.589
giant moa? These chickens were hatched

00:04:09.599 --> 00:04:11.910
using artificial eggs. That's according

00:04:11.920 --> 00:04:14.550
to the scientists at Coloss Biosciences.

00:04:14.560 --> 00:04:16.390
The Dallas-based biotech company says

00:04:16.400 --> 00:04:18.629
its 3D printed shell and siliconebased

00:04:18.639 --> 00:04:20.469
membrane can grow an embryo without

00:04:20.479 --> 00:04:22.790
supplemental oxygen. The company says it

00:04:22.800 --> 00:04:24.710
has hatched 26 chicks using this

00:04:24.720 --> 00:04:26.790
technology, ranging from 2 weeks to 4

00:04:26.800 --> 00:04:28.710
months in age. The next step is now

00:04:28.720 --> 00:04:30.710
seeing if they develop normally. The

00:04:30.720 --> 00:04:32.230
company is known for working towards

00:04:32.240 --> 00:04:33.990
deextinction of species like the

00:04:34.000 --> 00:04:35.990
resurrection of the direwolf using

00:04:36.000 --> 00:04:37.909
ancient DNA to alter the genes of a

00:04:37.919 --> 00:04:39.749
greywolf. It is also working towards

00:04:39.759 --> 00:04:41.430
resurrecting the dodo, the woolly

00:04:41.440 --> 00:04:43.749
mammoth, and the Tasmanian tiger.

00:04:43.759 --> 00:04:45.590
According to the company, the artificial

00:04:45.600 --> 00:04:47.670
egg technology will help to recreate

00:04:47.680 --> 00:04:50.070
extinct bird species, particularly the

00:04:50.080 --> 00:04:52.469
giant moa, which was so large there's no

00:04:52.479 --> 00:04:54.230
suitable living surrogate. But some

00:04:54.240 --> 00:04:55.909
scientists are skeptical. And though

00:04:55.919 --> 00:04:57.830
Colossal claims the artificial egg is

00:04:57.840 --> 00:04:59.510
scalable, the company would still need

00:04:59.520 --> 00:05:01.830
to overcome significant challenges, such

00:05:01.840 --> 00:05:03.749
as decoding the MOA's unique genetic

00:05:03.759 --> 00:05:06.070
makeup to achieve its long-term goal of

00:05:06.080 --> 00:05:08.150
bringing it back in some form. The

00:05:08.160 --> 00:05:09.990
artificial egg technology, however,

00:05:10.000 --> 00:05:13.189
could help conserve endangered birds.

00:05:13.199 --> 00:05:15.510
>> Pop quiz hot shot. Which Indie 500

00:05:15.520 --> 00:05:17.029
tradition started because a driver

00:05:17.039 --> 00:05:18.790
wanted something refreshing to drink

00:05:18.800 --> 00:05:20.710
after winning? Spraying champagne,

00:05:20.720 --> 00:05:22.629
drinking milk, kissing the bricks, or

00:05:22.639 --> 00:05:26.150
wearing goggles?

00:05:26.160 --> 00:05:28.710
You are a mooing if you said drinking

00:05:28.720 --> 00:05:32.230
milk. After winning in 1936, Lewis Meyer

00:05:32.240 --> 00:05:34.150
asked for buttermilk cuz his mom said it

00:05:34.160 --> 00:05:36.070
would cool him down. Dairy farmers saw

00:05:36.080 --> 00:05:37.990
marketing opportunity faster than an

00:05:38.000 --> 00:05:40.230
Indie pit crew changing tires and the

00:05:40.240 --> 00:05:43.110
milk celebration continues to this day.

00:05:43.120 --> 00:05:45.189
Our next story is about history in the

00:05:45.199 --> 00:05:46.950
making. Actually, her story in the

00:05:46.960 --> 00:05:49.189
making. Race car driver Katherine Leg is

00:05:49.199 --> 00:05:50.870
attempting to become the first woman to

00:05:50.880 --> 00:05:52.950
pull off the double, racing in the

00:05:52.960 --> 00:05:55.350
legendary Indianapolis 500, then hopping

00:05:55.360 --> 00:05:57.350
in a jet to compete in NASCAR's

00:05:57.360 --> 00:06:00.629
Coca-Cola 600. All on the same day, 1100

00:06:00.639 --> 00:06:02.469
miles of racing in whips that can hit

00:06:02.479 --> 00:06:05.670
230 mph in addition to all the lightning

00:06:05.680 --> 00:06:07.270
fast travel logistics. Here's our very

00:06:07.280 --> 00:06:10.070
own Don Redell with Miss Katherine Le.

00:06:10.080 --> 00:06:11.510
What do the people around you, the

00:06:11.520 --> 00:06:12.950
people that are close to you who maybe

00:06:12.960 --> 00:06:15.189
aren't involved in the motorsport

00:06:15.199 --> 00:06:17.189
community like? What do they think about

00:06:17.199 --> 00:06:18.790
what you're trying to do?

00:06:18.800 --> 00:06:21.029
>> I don't think they quite get it. I don't

00:06:21.039 --> 00:06:22.870
think they understand the enormity of it

00:06:22.880 --> 00:06:25.590
and what it takes and the feet of

00:06:25.600 --> 00:06:30.710
organization that it actually is and the

00:06:30.720 --> 00:06:34.150
physical feat. I mean, it's like being

00:06:34.160 --> 00:06:36.550
focused for a 3 to four hour Indie car

00:06:36.560 --> 00:06:39.590
race, then a 5h hour NASCAR race. It's

00:06:39.600 --> 00:06:41.749
the same as driving from New York to

00:06:41.759 --> 00:06:45.110
Daytona Beach pretty much at gosh an

00:06:45.120 --> 00:06:47.749
average of 200 miles an hour odd if you

00:06:47.759 --> 00:06:51.350
average the two. And um like you cannot

00:06:51.360 --> 00:06:53.510
lose focus for a second of any of that.

00:06:53.520 --> 00:06:54.870
I don't think anybody can comprehend

00:06:54.880 --> 00:06:56.230
that. I don't think I can comprehend

00:06:56.240 --> 00:06:57.590
that until I've done it either.

00:06:57.600 --> 00:06:59.270
>> We've spoken in the past and you've kind

00:06:59.280 --> 00:07:00.790
of resisted the idea that you're out

00:07:00.800 --> 00:07:02.469
there kind of setting an example for

00:07:02.479 --> 00:07:03.670
women because you just want to be a

00:07:03.680 --> 00:07:05.510
racing driver. That that's all you want

00:07:05.520 --> 00:07:06.790
to be.

00:07:06.800 --> 00:07:08.710
I get the sense you are perhaps now

00:07:08.720 --> 00:07:11.350
perhaps embracing this a little bit more

00:07:11.360 --> 00:07:12.230
maybe.

00:07:12.240 --> 00:07:16.150
>> Uh yeah, I no

00:07:16.160 --> 00:07:18.390
>> you just want to race.

00:07:18.400 --> 00:07:20.870
>> I still want to be taken seriously and I

00:07:20.880 --> 00:07:22.950
want to be seen as race car driver first

00:07:22.960 --> 00:07:25.029
and foremost. I don't like the female

00:07:25.039 --> 00:07:27.830
driver label, right? Because it should

00:07:27.840 --> 00:07:31.430
be irrelevant. Um, however, it would be

00:07:31.440 --> 00:07:34.390
a miss of me to not take the

00:07:34.400 --> 00:07:37.430
responsibility of being the visible only

00:07:37.440 --> 00:07:41.830
female in the race um to heart and to

00:07:41.840 --> 00:07:43.510
make the most of it for the next

00:07:43.520 --> 00:07:46.390
generations to come. Um, I don't claim

00:07:46.400 --> 00:07:48.070
in any way, shape, or form to speak for

00:07:48.080 --> 00:07:50.150
them. I hope that they're they're coming

00:07:50.160 --> 00:07:53.670
up through. But there is a saying which

00:07:53.680 --> 00:07:57.589
is to be it, you have to see it. And I'm

00:07:57.599 --> 00:07:59.749
a believer of that in that if somebody

00:07:59.759 --> 00:08:01.510
else sees me doing this and they think,

00:08:01.520 --> 00:08:03.990
well, maybe I can do X, Y, or Z, it

00:08:04.000 --> 00:08:05.029
doesn't necessarily need to be in

00:08:05.039 --> 00:08:07.270
racing. It could be like, oh, I don't

00:08:07.280 --> 00:08:09.589
see any women in my engineering class,

00:08:09.599 --> 00:08:11.589
but I'm still going to go do it because

00:08:11.599 --> 00:08:18.230
I could be the only one.

00:08:18.240 --> 00:08:19.830
Today's story getting a 10 out of 10.

00:08:19.840 --> 00:08:22.309
Beep beep. Barbie to the rescue. The

00:08:22.319 --> 00:08:23.909
average cost to fill a gas tank is

00:08:23.919 --> 00:08:26.230
anywhere from 60 to 90 bucks right now,

00:08:26.240 --> 00:08:28.629
but if your ride happens to be a Power

00:08:28.639 --> 00:08:30.950
Wheels Barbie dream camper, apparently

00:08:30.960 --> 00:08:33.269
$3 might do the trick. This man from

00:08:33.279 --> 00:08:35.110
Ellenwood, Georgia is showing us that

00:08:35.120 --> 00:08:38.230
life in the plastic is truly fantastic.

00:08:38.240 --> 00:08:40.709
Handyman Molly High Totower installed a

00:08:40.719 --> 00:08:43.110
twogallon tank and an engine from a

00:08:43.120 --> 00:08:45.829
power washer, proving pink horsepower is

00:08:45.839 --> 00:08:46.949
still horsepower.

00:08:46.959 --> 00:08:48.870
>> Do what I can. I can't do the uh my

00:08:48.880 --> 00:08:50.550
regular cars. I got to do my little mini

00:08:50.560 --> 00:08:53.190
cars. If I can get $1 on pump six,

00:08:53.200 --> 00:08:54.230
that'll be great.

00:08:54.240 --> 00:08:56.550
>> Molly had to think pink and says the

00:08:56.560 --> 00:08:58.790
tiny cruiser is perfect for quick

00:08:58.800 --> 00:09:00.630
errands, he's even upgraded it with

00:09:00.640 --> 00:09:03.430
lights, music, and a tablet screen. So,

00:09:03.440 --> 00:09:05.590
while gas prices have some drivers

00:09:05.600 --> 00:09:07.350
feeling exhausted, Molly's rolling

00:09:07.360 --> 00:09:09.670
through town looking delightful. It

00:09:09.680 --> 00:09:11.670
might not be a ton of trunk space on

00:09:11.680 --> 00:09:13.269
that thing, but according to him, his

00:09:13.279 --> 00:09:15.910
cruiser is already enough. Okay,

00:09:15.920 --> 00:09:17.670
speaking of dolls, I want to thank some

00:09:17.680 --> 00:09:19.910
of our friends from all over the map.

00:09:19.920 --> 00:09:22.389
Miss Brooks in Ann Arbor, Michigan. I

00:09:22.399 --> 00:09:25.030
want to thank Mr. Bartlett in Kenton,

00:09:25.040 --> 00:09:28.470
Ohio. Mr. Daling in Aurora, Illinois,

00:09:28.480 --> 00:09:31.110
and Double Trouble, Mr. Asbury in

00:09:31.120 --> 00:09:33.430
Sacramento, California. All of you

00:09:33.440 --> 00:09:35.910
sending custom Pop figures, and I must

00:09:35.920 --> 00:09:38.310
say, they are lovely. Kindred Kindness

00:09:38.320 --> 00:09:39.910
from four different schools. We will

00:09:39.920 --> 00:09:41.910
treasure these. Thank you for showing us

00:09:41.920 --> 00:09:43.910
so much love. Some random thoughts

00:09:43.920 --> 00:09:46.150
before I go. Why aren't iPhone chargers

00:09:46.160 --> 00:09:47.750
called Apple juice? Clapping your hands

00:09:47.760 --> 00:09:49.190
is just giving yourself a high five. And

00:09:49.200 --> 00:09:51.030
if tomatoes are fruit, then ketchup is

00:09:51.040 --> 00:09:56.120
jam. I'm Ky Wire and we are CNN 10.
