0:00:05.400 --> 0:00:06.360
<v Speaker 1>From the Daily os.

0:00:06.400 --> 0:00:07.600
<v Speaker 2>I'm Emma, I'm sam.

0:00:07.640 --> 0:00:10.560
<v Speaker 1>It's Friday, the thirty first of January. Here's what's making

0:00:10.600 --> 0:00:11.719
<v Speaker 1>headlines this evening.

0:00:13.720 --> 0:00:17.160
<v Speaker 2>The Australian Electoral Commission is calling for a healthy degree

0:00:17.200 --> 0:00:20.639
<v Speaker 2>of skepticism from voters ahead of this year's federal election.

0:00:21.120 --> 0:00:24.759
<v Speaker 2>The independent body is responsible for managing the national electoral system.

0:00:25.160 --> 0:00:27.560
<v Speaker 2>It warned the use of AI in elections is a

0:00:27.640 --> 0:00:32.080
<v Speaker 2>rapidly evolving environment. In response, the AAC has launched several

0:00:32.120 --> 0:00:35.960
<v Speaker 2>new resources and guides aimed at boosting digital literacy and

0:00:36.080 --> 0:00:40.440
<v Speaker 2>helping voters identify false or misleading information about the election process,

0:00:40.760 --> 0:00:45.480
<v Speaker 2>including AI generated content. A disinformation register on electoral processes

0:00:45.600 --> 0:00:48.120
<v Speaker 2>is also now live, after the tool was first launched

0:00:48.200 --> 0:00:51.320
<v Speaker 2>during the twenty twenty two federal election. An election is

0:00:51.440 --> 0:00:53.840
<v Speaker 2>due by May seventeenth.

0:00:54.480 --> 0:00:58.160
<v Speaker 1>US authorities have recovered two black box flight recorders from

0:00:58.160 --> 0:01:02.120
<v Speaker 1>the site of yesterday's deadly craft near Washington, DC. A

0:01:02.120 --> 0:01:05.880
<v Speaker 1>black Hawk helicopter and an American Airlines passenger jet plummeted

0:01:05.920 --> 0:01:08.760
<v Speaker 1>into a river after colliding mid air on approach to

0:01:08.840 --> 0:01:12.120
<v Speaker 1>Reagan Airport. There were sixty four people on the plane

0:01:12.160 --> 0:01:16.440
<v Speaker 1>and three soldiers on board the helicopter. No survivors are expected.

0:01:16.920 --> 0:01:20.480
<v Speaker 1>Investigators will now analyze the plane's cockpit, voice recorder and

0:01:20.640 --> 0:01:24.000
<v Speaker 1>flight data recorder to understand the moments leading up to

0:01:24.040 --> 0:01:27.280
<v Speaker 1>the incident. Crews have been diving the icy waters of

0:01:27.319 --> 0:01:30.960
<v Speaker 1>the Potomac River as efforts continue to recover all sixty

0:01:31.000 --> 0:01:34.479
<v Speaker 1>seven bodies. Several figure skaters and their families, as well

0:01:34.480 --> 0:01:37.759
<v Speaker 1>as two Chinese nationals, are believed to be among the dead.

0:01:39.640 --> 0:01:42.839
<v Speaker 2>The federal government has released new data showing vaping rates

0:01:42.880 --> 0:01:46.759
<v Speaker 2>are falling among young Australians. Speaking in Adelaide today, Health

0:01:46.800 --> 0:01:50.160
<v Speaker 2>Minister Mark Butler cited research by the South Australian Health

0:01:50.200 --> 0:01:53.920
<v Speaker 2>and Medical Research Institute which found vaping rates amongst fifteen

0:01:53.960 --> 0:01:56.240
<v Speaker 2>to twenty nine year olds dropped by around a third

0:01:56.360 --> 0:01:59.720
<v Speaker 2>between twenty twenty three and twenty twenty four. Vaping rates

0:01:59.720 --> 0:02:02.040
<v Speaker 2>are thirty to fifty nine year olds fell by nearly

0:02:02.080 --> 0:02:05.480
<v Speaker 2>fifty percent during that time. The percentage of young people

0:02:05.520 --> 0:02:08.320
<v Speaker 2>who have never smoked has risen to ninety four percent

0:02:08.600 --> 0:02:11.800
<v Speaker 2>according to the Department of Health. Butler said the results

0:02:11.800 --> 0:02:14.160
<v Speaker 2>show Australia is a world leader when it comes to

0:02:14.240 --> 0:02:17.440
<v Speaker 2>vaping reforms. He said the government will continue to investigate

0:02:17.520 --> 0:02:20.519
<v Speaker 2>and penalize those who are not complying with vaping laws.

0:02:22.400 --> 0:02:26.320
<v Speaker 1>And today's Good News, Surgeons in Germany have successfully used

0:02:26.520 --> 0:02:30.840
<v Speaker 1>lab grown muscle patches to treat heart failure. Scientists were

0:02:30.880 --> 0:02:33.320
<v Speaker 1>able to grow the patches from stem cells, which were

0:02:33.360 --> 0:02:35.720
<v Speaker 1>then used in an operation on a forty six year

0:02:35.720 --> 0:02:38.679
<v Speaker 1>old woman who had suffered a heart attack. The patches

0:02:38.720 --> 0:02:42.640
<v Speaker 1>implanted four hundred million cells, which formed blood vessels to

0:02:42.720 --> 0:02:47.280
<v Speaker 1>stabilize and strengthen her heart muscle. Researchers with the University

0:02:47.440 --> 0:02:50.400
<v Speaker 1>Medical Center getting in hope the treatment will be used

0:02:50.440 --> 0:02:53.480
<v Speaker 1>to prolong the lives of people with advanced heart failure

0:02:53.520 --> 0:02:55.880
<v Speaker 1>who are awaiting a heart transplant.

0:02:57.400 --> 0:02:59.040
