Good News if you wanted to paint stripes on cows

Speaker 1

Caalaroga Shark Media with me there.

I'm Johnny Macomcdog is hanging out in the studios today and together we have five good news stories for you.

And the first one is about a dog who got a reward for his good deed.

A known dementia patient went missing and Cruiser, the Golden Retriever cruised right to his location.

The person was found in the woods behind a school.

Police Chief McGrath said Cruiser can't hide a smile.

Today on social media, the dog post had got to play my favorite game of find the missing person.

I won today when I located a seventy year old man suffering from dementia.

No one worry.

Sergeant Morris got me my Hamburger reward.

Cruiser the Dog is over sixteen hundred followers on Facebook.

The local PD regularly posts pictures of what Cruiser has been up to.

Anyway, the hook Cruiser up with some burghers and they shared pictures of that as well.

Meanwhile, in Lithuania, the capital city there, which as you know, is Vilnius, they debuted a new electric ferry boat for transit up and down the river.

Ners Villainous was named the European Green Capital.

Of twenty twenty five, and they had a tight deadline to get these zero emissions electric ferry online by July twenty fifth.

They did do it.

The ferry holds thirty two people and cuts through the water as opposed to aquaplanting a top of it, which saves energy.

Eighty percent of the boat is covered in solar panels and passengers get free Wi Fi.

The boat's top seed is seven and a half kilometers per hour, higher than similar types of water vehicles in other European cities.

Very nice.

They plan to get two more electric ferries.

Good news if you like to swim but you're afraid of sharks.

Australian shark experts have tested four byte resistant materials to assess their ability to reduce injuries and blood loss.

Now, you might still get some internal and crushing injuries should a shark bite you, but this bite resistant wetsuit should help with the cause.

Now, traditional chain mail suits are protective, but two inflexible and heavy for activities like surfing or diving.

So these scientists looked towards new materials and they tested them.

They baited the water with fish guts and then they put in a wooden board with a gel that replicates the density of human muscle.

On top of the gel was this wetsuit material.

They jerked it back and forth and got the sharks to bite it.

There's some scary research there.

I was somewhere on vacation.

There was an opportunity to go down at a shark tank, and I was like, no, thank you.

Anyway, Once the sharks realized, ah, these aren't humans.

This stinks, they swam away.

But the researchers pulled the wood up to see how much shredding the shark teeth did.

They tested this one hundred and fifty two times.

They found that tiger shark bites never created a critical wound, and white sharks sometimes did, but it was still way better than a regular wetsuit.

I'll be on the beach.

It's October, so it's corn maze time.

A Michigan farm unveiled a five acre corn maze depicting Detroit Lyons wide receiver.

I'm on Ross Saint Brown performing his viral heads down touchdown celebration.

That's right, the Long Family Orchard and farm over in Commerce Township, you know the place.

They posted a video to social media showing the corn maze.

Bobby Long said he and his brother Will came up with the idea last January started working on it in July.

Bobby said, we do a special corn maze every year, and with the lions being so awesome and with everything I'm on Ro's done for a city or state in the fans, we wanted to give something back for him to enjoy two.

It's open from ten to six on weekends.

And I know I did a story already about the Ignoble Prize, but I saw a sub story about it and I had to go back and revisit this.

A team of Japanese researchers won the Biology Prize for showing that painting zebra stripes on cows meant that flies were less likely to bite the cows.

How that works, Who knows, ask the flies, but that was what caught my eye.

Another study was curious what kind of pizza would a lizard steal?

What topping would they like?

The best?

They prefer the four cheese pizza, of course, And a physics prize went to European researchers for discoveries about the physics of pasta sauce, in particular how to avoid clumpiness while making the iconic Italian dish cacco at Pepe.

I'm off to go paint some cows.

And those are your five good news stories for today.

Have an awesome day.
