WEBVTT 00:00.000 --> 00:07.350 [Music] 00:07.350 --> 00:10.480 [Applause] 00:11.519 --> 00:13.759 What's up sunshine? Happy Friday eve. 00:13.759 --> 00:16.160 I'm Ky Wire. This is CNN 10, your daily 00:16.160 --> 00:18.000 10 minutes of news for Thursday, October 00:18.000 --> 00:21.920 9th. But tomorrow is 1010, October 10th. 00:21.920 --> 00:24.000 And we want to give our 10 out of 10 to 00:24.000 --> 00:26.640 some of you. So send us your magical 00:26.640 --> 00:28.720 moment from this year so far. Send an 00:28.720 --> 00:30.480 email with your parents permission to 00:30.480 --> 00:32.640 cnn10@cnn.com 00:32.640 --> 00:35.760 or post photos or an edited video on the 00:35.760 --> 00:38.399 socials with the hashtagmycnn10 00:38.399 --> 00:42.160 tagging koywire cnn10 including the 00:42.160 --> 00:43.840 who's and what's about what we're seeing 00:43.840 --> 00:45.840 along with your school city and state in 00:45.840 --> 00:48.559 the comments so we can help you tell the 00:48.559 --> 00:51.360 story of you. All right, now let's get 00:51.360 --> 00:53.520 you your news. We begin in California 00:53.520 --> 00:55.360 with some big news about the deadly 00:55.360 --> 00:57.760 Palisades fire that ravaged parts of the 00:57.760 --> 01:00.000 state earlier this year. Authorities 01:00.000 --> 01:01.600 announced yesterday that they have 01:01.600 --> 01:04.239 arrested and charged a suspect in 01:04.239 --> 01:07.119 connection with January's deadly blaze. 01:07.119 --> 01:09.200 Today we are announcing the arrest of 01:09.200 --> 01:12.400 29-year-old Jonathan Renderneck for 01:12.400 --> 01:14.640 igniting a fire that ultimately burned 01:14.640 --> 01:17.520 down the Palisades earlier this year, 01:17.520 --> 01:20.240 killing 12 people, destroying more than 01:20.240 --> 01:22.960 6,800 structures, both homes and 01:22.960 --> 01:25.920 businesses, and damaging over a thousand 01:25.920 --> 01:28.240 more buildings. The suspect is accused 01:28.240 --> 01:30.720 of maliciously starting a January 1st 01:30.720 --> 01:32.880 fire that went on to become the 01:32.880 --> 01:35.119 Palisades fire. Police say he was 01:35.119 --> 01:37.119 working as an Uber driver and dropped 01:37.119 --> 01:39.680 off a passenger on New Year's Eve before 01:39.680 --> 01:42.079 walking up a nearby trail and starting 01:42.079 --> 01:44.320 the fire. He then allegedly drove away 01:44.320 --> 01:46.560 from the scene. The Palisades fire is 01:46.560 --> 01:48.399 the third most destructive and ninth 01:48.399 --> 01:51.600 deadliest fire in state history. Next, 01:51.600 --> 01:54.159 we go to the Big Apple, New York City, 01:54.159 --> 01:55.759 where a very important part of the 01:55.759 --> 01:57.759 school day, lunchtime, is getting a 01:57.759 --> 01:59.920 homegrown upgrade thanks to a new 01:59.920 --> 02:02.560 competition. Students at the nation's 02:02.560 --> 02:04.640 largest school district flex their 02:04.640 --> 02:07.200 culinary skills to create a whole new 02:07.200 --> 02:10.000 take on school lunch. Yep. Move over 02:10.000 --> 02:11.920 fish sticks and fruit cups. Arm Maya 02:11.920 --> 02:13.840 Blackstone caught up with the teen chefs 02:13.840 --> 02:15.920 behind these delicious and healthy 02:15.920 --> 02:16.800 treats. 02:16.800 --> 02:18.560 At this high school in Queens, New York, 02:18.560 --> 02:20.400 kids aren't just eating school lunch, 02:20.400 --> 02:22.720 they're designing it. 02:22.720 --> 02:24.480 New York City hosted its first 02:24.480 --> 02:26.319 competition between high school students 02:26.319 --> 02:28.720 to design a cafeteria menu item. 02:28.720 --> 02:30.160 According to New York City public 02:30.160 --> 02:32.000 schools office of food and nutrition 02:32.000 --> 02:34.560 services at Francis Lewis High School, 02:34.560 --> 02:36.640 students spent months developing dishes 02:36.640 --> 02:38.800 that met the city's strict nutrition 02:38.800 --> 02:41.280 standards. The winning creations, honey 02:41.280 --> 02:43.200 garlic chicken with broccoli and a Greek 02:43.200 --> 02:45.519 inspired cucumber salad are now being 02:45.519 --> 02:48.239 served in every school cafeteria across 02:48.239 --> 02:48.959 the city. 02:48.959 --> 02:50.560 Every week there would be a new recipe. 02:50.560 --> 02:51.840 They would come up with it. They would 02:51.840 --> 02:53.519 present it. They would cook it. They 02:53.519 --> 02:55.920 would scale it down with uh sugar salt 02:55.920 --> 02:58.480 ratios and then uh the staff would try 02:58.480 --> 02:58.800 it. 02:58.800 --> 03:00.319 Obviously, New York City is a huge 03:00.319 --> 03:02.720 melting pot. Kids come from all sorts of 03:02.720 --> 03:04.800 backgrounds. How do the kids bring that 03:04.800 --> 03:06.319 into what they're doing today? 03:06.319 --> 03:08.159 We are from Queens, so I think there's 03:08.159 --> 03:10.560 over 75 to 80 different cultures within 03:10.560 --> 03:12.879 the Queens itself. We try to incorporate 03:12.879 --> 03:14.720 every kid with their cultural background 03:14.720 --> 03:16.319 and embrace it. We want to be able to 03:16.319 --> 03:18.720 teach them the skills and the safety and 03:18.720 --> 03:20.239 understanding of where their food comes 03:20.239 --> 03:22.319 from and the process of making it. How 03:22.319 --> 03:24.000 have you seen the students grow through 03:24.000 --> 03:24.720 this program? 03:24.720 --> 03:27.200 Teamwork, creativity, uh leadership. 03:27.200 --> 03:29.120 These kids wouldn't be where they are 03:29.120 --> 03:31.200 now without this program. We tried to 03:31.200 --> 03:32.799 run this kitchen just like any 03:32.799 --> 03:34.319 professional kitchen. Maybe some of them 03:34.319 --> 03:36.560 will take this to move forward to feed 03:36.560 --> 03:39.200 themselves during college or get a job 03:39.200 --> 03:41.200 or even go into the industry. 03:41.200 --> 03:44.000 A lot of kids I feel now they rely on 03:44.000 --> 03:46.799 their parents. So when I do move out, I 03:46.799 --> 03:48.480 already have a lot of life skills, a lot 03:48.480 --> 03:50.319 of responsibility because that's what 03:50.319 --> 03:51.760 you do need in the kitchen. It has 03:51.760 --> 03:54.480 honestly helped me focus a lot. It's 03:54.480 --> 03:56.799 kept me off my phone. I love how it's 03:56.799 --> 03:58.720 hands-on. They give us a lot of creative 03:58.720 --> 04:01.280 freedom and I think that allows a lot of 04:01.280 --> 04:02.959 kids to be themselves in the kitchen. 04:02.959 --> 04:04.959 The program aligns with New York City 04:04.959 --> 04:07.360 Mayor Eric Adams's push for healthier 04:07.360 --> 04:09.840 school food. Part of a broader citywide 04:09.840 --> 04:12.319 effort to reduce sodium, sugar, and 04:12.319 --> 04:14.720 processed ingredients. But some critics 04:14.720 --> 04:16.959 say the mayor's healthy eating agenda 04:16.959 --> 04:19.199 leads to nutrition gaps, logistical and 04:19.199 --> 04:21.680 economic concerns, and plain just 04:21.680 --> 04:23.280 doesn't taste good. 04:23.280 --> 04:24.960 We have the largest school district in 04:24.960 --> 04:27.199 the country, as you know. We also have 04:27.199 --> 04:29.199 the most prohibited ingredient list. And 04:29.199 --> 04:30.720 what that means is we have low sugar, 04:30.720 --> 04:32.720 low sodium, and we prohibited a bunch of 04:32.720 --> 04:34.800 different things in our menu and in our 04:34.800 --> 04:36.240 food products. We want to make sure 04:36.240 --> 04:37.759 they're not just eating healthy, but 04:37.759 --> 04:39.680 they understand why to eat healthy. The 04:39.680 --> 04:41.280 only way to really improve our menu is 04:41.280 --> 04:42.639 to have student feedback. And what 04:42.639 --> 04:44.400 better way to have student feedback than 04:44.400 --> 04:46.000 to have them develop recipes for our 04:46.000 --> 04:46.560 menu. 04:46.560 --> 04:50.639 For CNN 10, Maya Blackstone, New York. 04:50.639 --> 04:53.040 And Maya did further report that she did 04:53.040 --> 04:54.960 taste the food, and it was good, she 04:54.960 --> 04:56.800 says. All right, now to another 04:56.800 --> 04:58.720 announcement of one of this year's Nobel 04:58.720 --> 05:00.960 Prizes, the esteemed annual awards that 05:00.960 --> 05:02.320 are given to those who reach the 05:02.320 --> 05:04.800 pinnacle of their fields. The Nobel 05:04.800 --> 05:06.320 Prize committee has announced this 05:06.320 --> 05:08.400 year's prize in the field of chemistry 05:08.400 --> 05:11.199 is going to a trio of scientists whose 05:11.199 --> 05:13.039 work is being likened to something 05:13.039 --> 05:15.039 straight out of Harry Potter. Susumu 05:15.039 --> 05:18.880 Kitigawa, Richard Robson, and Omar Yagi 05:18.880 --> 05:21.280 have been named for their development of 05:21.280 --> 05:23.759 metorganic frameworks, a new form of 05:23.759 --> 05:26.160 molecular architecture. The materials 05:26.160 --> 05:28.080 contain cavities that function a bit 05:28.080 --> 05:30.639 like hotel rooms, if you will, allowing 05:30.639 --> 05:33.199 guest molecules to enter and exit. The 05:33.199 --> 05:35.680 prize committee likens it to Hermione 05:35.680 --> 05:38.400 Grers's enchanted handbag in the Harry 05:38.400 --> 05:40.720 Potter universe. Small on the outside, 05:40.720 --> 05:42.880 huge on the inside. But this 05:42.880 --> 05:45.199 breakthrough isn't magic, per se. The 05:45.199 --> 05:46.880 committee says it could have some 05:46.880 --> 05:49.680 realworld impacts, including harvesting 05:49.680 --> 05:52.400 water from desert air or even isolating 05:52.400 --> 05:54.720 toxic pollution from exhaust gas. 05:54.720 --> 05:58.560 Wingardium leviosa, rise up. Pop quiz, 05:58.560 --> 06:00.320 hot shot. The first bicycles were 06:00.320 --> 06:03.120 commonly known as what? penny farings, 06:03.120 --> 06:08.520 dandy horses, velocipedes, or tricycles. 06:11.600 --> 06:14.240 If you said dandy horses, giddy up. The 06:14.240 --> 06:16.080 direct ancestor of the bicycle was 06:16.080 --> 06:20.240 invented in 1817 by Baron Carl Vandr in 06:20.240 --> 06:22.160 Germany. Riders propelled the dandy 06:22.160 --> 06:23.840 horse by pushing their feet against the 06:23.840 --> 06:26.720 ground. It didn't have any pedals. A 06:26.720 --> 06:28.639 father-son duo are taking on an 06:28.639 --> 06:30.960 incredible feat together. Mile after 06:30.960 --> 06:33.840 mile after mile, George and Josh Kohler 06:33.840 --> 06:36.319 are attempting to cycle around the 06:36.319 --> 06:38.319 world. It's a record-breaking ride that 06:38.319 --> 06:40.800 could see them log more than 18,000 06:40.800 --> 06:44.000 miles across 25 countries, four 06:44.000 --> 06:46.319 continents. But this globe trotting trek 06:46.319 --> 06:48.880 is no easy pedal. Our Ben Church got a 06:48.880 --> 06:50.479 chance to catch up with the pair to talk 06:50.479 --> 06:52.880 about their progress so far and the 06:52.880 --> 06:55.120 challenges ahead. 06:55.120 --> 06:57.600 Meet Josh and George Ka, a father and 06:57.600 --> 06:59.680 son duo bidding to do something that no 06:59.680 --> 07:02.319 one has ever done before. Cycle around 07:02.319 --> 07:05.039 the entire world together. 07:05.039 --> 07:07.360 About a year and a half ago, I said to 07:07.360 --> 07:09.440 dad, why don't we fly to Singapore and 07:09.440 --> 07:11.039 cycle home? Then we thought, well, if 07:11.039 --> 07:13.199 we're doing that much that far, why 07:13.199 --> 07:14.560 don't we just do the extra bit and go 07:14.560 --> 07:16.639 all the way around the whole world? And 07:16.639 --> 07:19.039 then, yeah, we set off on at the end of 07:19.039 --> 07:20.560 March earlier in the year. 07:20.560 --> 07:22.080 Let's go. 07:22.080 --> 07:24.080 It turns out that no father and son have 07:24.080 --> 07:26.400 ever cycled around the world. So we we 07:26.400 --> 07:28.400 approached Guinness World Records and um 07:28.400 --> 07:29.840 they came back a few months later and 07:29.840 --> 07:31.759 said, "Yep, um these are now officially 07:31.759 --> 07:34.240 endorsed as uh what is now three world 07:34.240 --> 07:37.199 record attempts. The furthest distance 07:37.199 --> 07:39.360 ever cycled by a father and son. The 07:39.360 --> 07:41.520 fastest circumnavigation of the world by 07:41.520 --> 07:44.960 a father and son on on bicycles. Um and 07:44.960 --> 07:46.880 the most countries traveled on bicycles 07:46.880 --> 07:49.440 by a father and son. Uh so we've gone 07:49.440 --> 07:52.240 from rookie cyclists uh a couple of 07:52.240 --> 07:54.879 years ago to potentially making history 07:54.879 --> 07:56.160 on this. 07:56.160 --> 07:58.160 The father and son duo have already 07:58.160 --> 07:59.759 crossed Europe and made it through 07:59.759 --> 08:02.319 China, hoping to finish the trip early 08:02.319 --> 08:04.160 next year. 08:04.160 --> 08:05.599 They've also been documenting their 08:05.599 --> 08:07.840 journey on social media with videos 08:07.840 --> 08:09.280 showing both their ups and the 08:09.280 --> 08:11.520 inevitable downs. 08:11.520 --> 08:13.680 The kindness like of strangers around 08:13.680 --> 08:16.240 the world has just been incredible. Um, 08:16.240 --> 08:17.599 and it's all these little small 08:17.599 --> 08:20.160 gestures, whether that's someone driving 08:20.160 --> 08:21.840 past with a bottle of water out of the 08:21.840 --> 08:24.800 window a gift to us or gifting us bread 08:24.800 --> 08:27.039 or fruit. 08:27.039 --> 08:28.800 While testing every aspect of their 08:28.800 --> 08:31.599 relationship, both men are aware of how 08:31.599 --> 08:33.200 special it is to be sharing this 08:33.200 --> 08:36.080 adventure with each other. 08:36.080 --> 08:38.880 Incredibly grateful. Um, and that's 08:38.880 --> 08:40.560 again like going back to my the previous 08:40.560 --> 08:42.560 point about sort of looking at the 08:42.560 --> 08:44.159 bigger picture is thinking about that 08:44.159 --> 08:46.399 and realizing how sort of lucky and 08:46.399 --> 08:48.800 fortunate I am to have a father that is 08:48.800 --> 08:51.519 willing to do this with me and you know 08:51.519 --> 08:54.240 sacrifice a lot from back home the life 08:54.240 --> 08:56.000 that you had back in England to come out 08:56.000 --> 08:57.680 and do this with me. 08:57.680 --> 08:59.360 I suppose the the proudest thing you can 08:59.360 --> 09:02.160 have as a as a father is a son that's 09:02.160 --> 09:04.490 better than you. 09:04.490 --> 09:09.200 [Applause] 09:09.200 --> 09:11.040 Today's story getting a 10 out of 10. A 09:11.040 --> 09:13.120 message in a bottle. Crossing oceans and 09:13.120 --> 09:15.519 leading to a surprising connection. Back 09:15.519 --> 09:18.240 in 2018, Payton Hollandbeck and her 09:18.240 --> 09:20.800 brother tossed a message in a bottle 09:20.800 --> 09:22.720 complete with her phone number into the 09:22.720 --> 09:25.200 Pacific Ocean off of Oahu's Northshore 09:25.200 --> 09:26.399 in Hawaii. 09:26.399 --> 09:28.320 I had been walking on the beach at my 09:28.320 --> 09:30.800 favorite surf spot and I had seen a 09:30.800 --> 09:32.160 message in a bottle. There was no phone 09:32.160 --> 09:33.279 number, but my brother and I were like, 09:33.279 --> 09:34.399 "Oh, we should just go make one 09:34.399 --> 09:35.839 ourselves for fun." 09:35.839 --> 09:38.640 She forgot all about it until nearly 7 09:38.640 --> 09:41.120 years later when she gets a text from an 09:41.120 --> 09:43.360 unrecognized number. It was a family 09:43.360 --> 09:45.440 from Michigan who found her message 09:45.440 --> 09:48.160 while vacationing on Florida's G Coast 09:48.160 --> 09:49.519 thousands of miles away. 09:49.519 --> 09:50.800 And I was like, "Oh, what is this 09:50.800 --> 09:52.640 about?" And it was the piece of paper. 09:52.640 --> 09:54.399 And I knew it was mine cuz it had the 09:54.399 --> 09:55.920 paper cranes. And my brother and I had 09:55.920 --> 09:57.519 like an obsession with making paper 09:57.519 --> 09:59.680 cranes. Despite the once-in-a-lifetime 09:59.680 --> 10:01.839 encounter, Payton says she's more 10:01.839 --> 10:03.760 mindful of what she puts into the ocean 10:03.760 --> 10:05.680 these days. She hopes that others will 10:05.680 --> 10:07.200 think twice before following in her 10:07.200 --> 10:09.279 footsteps and instead choose to help 10:09.279 --> 10:11.920 keep the oceans clean. Our first shout 10:11.920 --> 10:14.720 out of the day goes to Mr. Goodwin and 10:14.720 --> 10:16.880 our friends at Rosedale Elementary in 10:16.880 --> 10:18.800 Rosedale, Indiana. Thank you for 10:18.800 --> 10:20.800 following along on our CNN 10 Instagram 10:20.800 --> 10:22.720 account. It has been fun showing some of 10:22.720 --> 10:24.880 our behind thescenes work here with the 10:24.880 --> 10:27.440 team. And from our YouTube subscribers, 10:27.440 --> 10:30.720 this shout out goes to Mr. Patrick at 10:30.720 --> 10:32.480 Pelum Academy in Lexington, 10:32.480 --> 10:34.320 Massachusetts. Thank you for all the 10:34.320 --> 10:37.120 kind comments and for making this show a 10:37.120 --> 10:39.040 part of your day. Happy Friday Eve, 10:39.040 --> 10:41.040 everyone. Let's dominate the day and do 10:41.040 --> 10:42.560 it again tomorrow. Finish this week 10:42.560 --> 10:47.880 strong. I'm Ky Wire and we are CNN 10.
