Speaker 1: plane clips a roof and slams into a housing complex

37
00:02:01,960 --> 00:02:05,040
Speaker 1: in Nashaua, New Hampshire. The pilot, the only one on

Speaker 1: board the Velocity V twin engine aircraft, survives but is

39
00:02:09,400 --> 00:02:12,000

43
00:02:21,320 --> 00:02:25,120
Speaker 1: was responsive and answering questions. No other injuries on the ground,

44
00:02:25,320 --> 00:02:28,400
Speaker 1: reported President Trump in primetime.

45
00:02:27,840 --> 00:02:31,040
Speaker 5: I am bringing to those high prices down and bringing

46
00:02:31,080 --> 00:02:32,840
Speaker 5: them down very fast.

47
00:02:32,960 --> 00:02:36,240
Speaker 1: With boasts, blame, and bonuses in a year end address

48
00:02:36,280 --> 00:02:39,160
Speaker 1: from the White House, the eighteen minute speech blames the

49
00:02:39,200 --> 00:02:43,560
Speaker 1: Biden administration for Americans current issues with affordability. The President

50
00:02:43,600 --> 00:02:46,360
Speaker 1: also takes a victory lap of sorts for ending several

51
00:02:46,440 --> 00:02:49,639
Speaker 1: wars around the world, and he says bonus checks will

52
00:02:49,680 --> 00:02:52,920
Speaker 1: fill the Christmas stockings of US military members this year.

53
00:02:53,200 --> 00:02:56,560
Speaker 1: Fans of Survivor, however, not happy with the nine pm

54
00:02:56,639 --> 00:03:01,919
Speaker 1: timing of the address. The eighteen minutes interrupted these seasons finale.

55
00:03:02,040 --> 00:03:04,120
Speaker 1: We're off to a good start on this Thursday morning

56
00:03:04,120 --> 00:03:06,840
Speaker 1: in Boston, clear skies in thirty seven degrees. It's going

57
00:03:06,880 --> 00:03:09,280
Speaker 1: to be a beautiful day today. This is actually going

58
00:03:09,320 --> 00:03:10,560
Speaker 1: to be the pick of the week. We do have

59
00:03:10,600 --> 00:03:13,120
Speaker 1: a mix of sun and clouds throughout the day today,

60
00:03:13,400 --> 00:03:15,520
Speaker 1: high Temperatures for most of us will be in the

61
00:03:15,560 --> 00:03:17,920
Speaker 1: mid forties. Some of us might get very close to

62
00:03:18,040 --> 00:03:20,840
Speaker 1: fifty overnight tonight. We're going to see some clouds on

63
00:03:20,880 --> 00:03:23,720
Speaker 1: the increase, and it's going to be increasingly breezy too.

64
00:03:24,160 --> 00:03:27,880
Speaker 1: Some rain arrives later on. Temperatures will actually rise while

65
00:03:27,880 --> 00:03:31,240
Speaker 1: we're asleep tonight into the fifties. Tomorrow is one we'd

66
00:03:31,280 --> 00:03:34,600
Speaker 1: probably rather forget. Looks like some heavy rain from time

67
00:03:34,639 --> 00:03:37,160
Speaker 1: to time moving into the area, some high winds. In fact,

68
00:03:37,200 --> 00:03:39,760
Speaker 1: a high wind warning has been posted for the Cape

69
00:03:39,760 --> 00:03:43,000
Speaker 1: and Islands. We're talking of wind gusts maybe in excess

70
00:03:43,000 --> 00:03:45,280
Speaker 1: of fifty miles an hour throughout the day tomorrow, and

71
00:03:45,320 --> 00:03:49,760
Speaker 1: that is considered damaging force winds. Otherwise, temperatures will be

72
00:03:49,760 --> 00:03:52,800
Speaker 1: around sixty tomorrow, but the heavy rain will ruin it

73
00:03:52,880 --> 00:03:55,920
Speaker 1: for most of us. Over the weekend, it's much colder,

74
00:03:55,920 --> 00:03:59,240
Speaker 1: about twenty degrees off the mark. On Saturday, will see

75
00:03:59,280 --> 00:04:03,680
Speaker 1: high's forty degrees and mild for the first day of

76
00:04:03,720 --> 00:04:07,200
Speaker 1: winter coming up on Sunday, we're expecting temperatures right back

77
00:04:07,240 --> 00:04:10,080
Speaker 1: around fifty degrees right now in Boston's thirty seven clear

78
00:04:10,120 --> 00:04:12,800
Speaker 1: skies as we could going this Thursday morning, it's six

79
00:04:12,920 --> 00:04:16,000
Speaker 1: oh five. A long time abandoned building is about to

80
00:04:16,040 --> 00:04:17,480
Speaker 1: become a site for sore eyes.

81
00:04:17,680 --> 00:04:20,160
Speaker 4: Over four decades, Patsy's Pastries was the place to go

82
00:04:20,200 --> 00:04:23,240
Speaker 4: for a chocolatedy Claire cookies, cakes, and deep fried canolis.

83
00:04:23,560 --> 00:04:25,920
Speaker 4: But after shutting their doors for good in twenty fifteen,

84
00:04:25,960 --> 00:04:28,159
Speaker 4: the building started to crumble a bit like a cookie

85
00:04:28,200 --> 00:04:30,159
Speaker 4: wood after years with no upkeep's spent.

86
00:04:30,040 --> 00:04:33,320
Speaker 6: A sight of light for a long time, so you

87
00:04:33,320 --> 00:04:36,320
Speaker 6: could see those broken windows couches laid about.

88
00:04:36,400 --> 00:04:39,240
Speaker 4: But now word one city councilor, Matt McLoughlin and candidate

89
00:04:39,320 --> 00:04:41,960
Speaker 4: for State Senate, says, this place's days of broken windows

90
00:04:42,000 --> 00:04:44,720
Speaker 4: are numbered. With big plans for affordable housing, and.

91
00:04:44,720 --> 00:04:47,400
Speaker 6: It's been abandoned for years, and we're finally reaching a

92
00:04:47,480 --> 00:04:50,359
Speaker 6: deal with the Summer Community Corporation to purchase this land

93
00:04:50,640 --> 00:04:52,520
Speaker 6: and make it one hundred percent affordable housing.

94
00:04:52,640 --> 00:04:55,200
Speaker 4: That land includes Patsy's Pastries, the building next to it,

95
00:04:55,279 --> 00:04:57,600
Speaker 4: also abandoned, and another building on the other side.

96
00:04:57,680 --> 00:04:59,560
Speaker 6: It is one of the few four story buildings we

97
00:04:59,640 --> 00:05:01,760
Speaker 6: have in the cit that I previously lived in.

98
00:05:01,960 --> 00:05:04,160
Speaker 4: It's still early days in financing, still needs to be

99
00:05:04,240 --> 00:05:06,360
Speaker 4: sorted out but the area is zoned for at least

100
00:05:06,360 --> 00:05:09,520

103
00:05:15,200 --> 00:05:18,520
Speaker 1: cosmic event is happening this week. A three I atlas

104
00:05:18,560 --> 00:05:22,000
Speaker 1: interstellar comet will pass by Earth on Friday, roughly one

105
00:05:22,040 --> 00:05:25,320
Speaker 1: hundred and sixty eight million miles away. If you immediately

106
00:05:25,320 --> 00:05:27,279
Speaker 1: started thinking about armageddon, you're not alone.

107
00:05:27,320 --> 00:05:29,760
Speaker 3: But good news. Experts say the comet is not a

108
00:05:29,839 --> 00:05:32,599
Speaker 3: danger to Earth or any other planets in our Solar system.

109
00:05:32,680 --> 00:05:34,840
Speaker 3: It is, however, close enough to allow them a rare

110
00:05:34,880 --> 00:05:38,080
Speaker 3: opportunity to study it. This comment was first discovered by

111

117
00:05:54,880 --> 00:05:57,880
Speaker 7: It'll go higher than one hundred kilometers about you know,

118
00:05:57,960 --> 00:06:00,800
Speaker 7: sixty five miles or so. The crew will be in

119
00:06:00,839 --> 00:06:03,200
Speaker 7: space for all of about three to four minutes, and

120
00:06:03,240 --> 00:06:06,559
Speaker 7: then the capsule it'll just re enter the atmosphere. It'll

121
00:06:06,640 --> 00:06:10,080
Speaker 7: fall back toward Earth and come back in. But while

122
00:06:10,080 --> 00:06:13,240
Speaker 7: they're up in space, they will be outside the atmosphere.

123
00:06:13,560 --> 00:06:17,880
Speaker 7: They'll see the darkness of space beyond. They'll see Earth

124
00:06:17,920 --> 00:06:20,640
Speaker 7: from a great distance, you know, more than sixty five miles.

125
00:06:20,640 --> 00:06:23,160

134
00:06:47,640 --> 00:06:50,039
