<v Speaker 1>From The Daily Oz. I'm Sam Becauseloski, I'm Lucy Tassel.

0:00:08.400 --> 0:00:11.280
<v Speaker 1>It's Tuesday, the seventh of October. Here's what's making headlines

0:00:11.320 --> 0:00:11.800
<v Speaker 1>this evening.

0:00:14.320 --> 0:00:17.759
<v Speaker 2>The US government shutdown has entered its second week with

0:00:17.920 --> 0:00:22.119
<v Speaker 2>no resolution in sight, as Republicans and Democrats remain deadlocked

0:00:22.200 --> 0:00:25.760
<v Speaker 2>over a funding bill. Democrats are demanding health care protections

0:00:25.800 --> 0:00:30.760
<v Speaker 2>and safeguards against presidential interference with government funding, while Republicans

0:00:30.800 --> 0:00:34.560
<v Speaker 2>blame the opposing party for the impasse. President Donald Trump

0:00:34.640 --> 0:00:38.879
<v Speaker 2>said job cuts during the shutdown are democrats fault, while democratically,

0:00:38.880 --> 0:00:41.440
<v Speaker 2>it is claimed the White House has stopped all communication

0:00:41.600 --> 0:00:44.879
<v Speaker 2>with them. Neither side has so far signaled a willingness

0:00:44.880 --> 0:00:48.640
<v Speaker 2>to compromise. According to the National Economic Council, the shutdown

0:00:48.680 --> 0:00:52.599
<v Speaker 2>is costing the country's economy around fifteen billion US dollars

0:00:52.680 --> 0:00:53.280
<v Speaker 2>every week.

0:00:56.000 --> 0:00:59.560

<v Speaker 1>and Pakenham lines, creating one new ends to end line.

<v Speaker 1>The thirteen point five billion dollar project was first announced

0:01:14.120 --> 0:01:17.520
<v Speaker 1>way back in twenty fifteen. By former Premier Daniel Andrews,

0:01:17.800 --> 0:01:21.080
<v Speaker 1>and has faced a number of delays and cost blowouts since,

0:01:21.280 --> 0:01:24.560
<v Speaker 1>particularly during the COVID pandemic. It will begin with services

0:01:24.600 --> 0:01:27.840

<v Speaker 1>with more spread out services on weekends until a full

0:01:31.400 --> 0:01:33.920
<v Speaker 1>timetable begins in February of next year.

0:01:36.480 --> 0:01:39.759
<v Speaker 2>Nearly one thousand climbers were trapped on or near Mount

0:01:39.760 --> 0:01:43.760
<v Speaker 2>Everest over the weekend following sudden heavy snowfall. At least

0:01:43.760 --> 0:01:46.040
<v Speaker 2>one group was stuck at an elevation of more than

0:01:46.080 --> 0:01:49.920
<v Speaker 2>four nine hundred meters. The bluzzard struck during a week

0:01:50.000 --> 0:01:53.280
<v Speaker 2>long national holiday in China. At least one man died

0:01:53.280 --> 0:01:56.840
<v Speaker 2>from hypothermia and altitude sickness while climbing in the mountains

0:01:56.920 --> 0:02:01.040
<v Speaker 2>of the neighbouring Qinghai Province. On Monday, Chinese state media

0:02:01.080 --> 0:02:03.560

<v Speaker 1>And Today's good news and undoubtedly one of the most

0:02:13.160 --> 0:02:17.000
<v Speaker 1>important stories I will cover in my journalistic career. Australian

0:02:17.040 --> 0:02:20.360
<v Speaker 1>food stylist Caroline Velick has won a prize at the

0:02:20.440 --> 0:02:24.760

<v Speaker 1>thirty second edition of the competition, which is held annually

0:02:27.919 --> 0:02:31.840
<v Speaker 1>in Carbridge, Scotland, occurred over the weekend. Velick won the

0:02:31.880 --> 0:02:35.760
<v Speaker 1>Best Specialty Dish category, which includes any recipe made with

0:02:35.880 --> 0:02:40.320
<v Speaker 1>oatmeal very controversial. She made porridge jaffles, a yogurt flatbread

0:02:51.520 --> 0:02:55.040
<v Speaker 1>bring the flavors of the indigenous Aussie outback to Scotland.

0:02:55.200 --> 0:02:58.280
<v Speaker 1>The Golden Spurtle World Champion title went to spen Celyi

0:02:58.360 --> 0:03:01.840
<v Speaker 1>Yom from Norway, who us used Norwegian notes, salt and

0:03:01.960 --> 0:03:05.440
<v Speaker 1>water he brought to the competition from home. The competition's

0:03:05.520 --> 0:03:09.639
<v Speaker 1>main category is about traditional porridge making, meaning contestants can

0:03:09.680 --> 0:03:13.400
<v Speaker 1>only use water, grains and salt. This year's competitions saw

0:03:13.480 --> 0:03:16.119
