Hello sunshine. Welcome to the show,
October 23rd. Happy Friday Eve. We begin
with some big news regarding one of the
most common and often most serious food
allergies, peanuts. 10 years ago, a
landmark study proved that introducing
peanut products to young babies could
help prevent them from developing
life-threatening allergies. Now, a
decade later, new research is showing
just how effective the unique approach
has been. Our Meg Terrell has more.
Well, about 60,000 US kids are estimated
to have avoided having a food allergy um
after guidelines were changed in 2015,
specifically about the early
introduction of peanuts to their diet.
Now, uh this is a study from researchers
at the Children's Hospital of
Philadelphia. They used electronic
health records to look at diagnoses of
food allergies and specifically peanut
allergies around this guidance change.
And the reason the guidance was changed
was there was a landmark study in 2015
that showed early introduction of
peanuts to babies. You know, between
about 4 months and 11 months of age was
associated with a significantly
decreased risk of developing dangerous
peanut allergies uh and for having them
later in life. And so the guidance was
changed. What they found is that um
after that 2015 guidance specifically
for high-risisk babies, there was a 27%
decline um in uh peanut allergies. And
then after that guidance was expanded in
2017, that decline went to 40%. And so
obviously food allergies and
specifically peanut allergies are a huge
issue. Um 8% of US kids is estimated to
have a food allergy and 2.2% of kids are
um thought to have peanut allergy. And
so the researchers here say this is
evidence that introducing peanuts and uh
other allergens as well potentially uh
is a good way to reduce risk of
developing these allergies over time. Uh
and the guidelines right now are around
four to 6 months of age um in
consultation with pediatricians.
>> Now to the global manhunt for the
thieves who stole crown jewels from the
Louve Museum in Paris in broad daylight
in just 7 minutes time. Museum officials
say there are now around 100
investigators working on this case. The
Lou's curator estimates the stolen
jewelry is worth $12 million. A Paris
prosecutor gave a warning to the thieves
saying that they will quote never obtain
these considerable sums if they were to
dismantle, melt down, or resell the
artifacts. French police have recovered
one of the two getaway scooters that was
used in the heist. They're also
searching for DNA evidence in and on the
truck and the ladder that was left
outside of the museum. Space news now.
As NASA races to return astronauts to
the moon, it appears they may be
rethinking their reliance on Elon Musk's
Space X to do so. US Department of
Transportation Secretary Shawn Duffy,
the acting head of NASA, says he is
ready to reopen the bidding process for
Artemis 3, the historic moon landing
mission slated for as soon as the year
2027. SpaceX currently holds that
contract, but Duffy says they are
falling behind schedule in their bid to
deliver the Starship, which will be used
for the mission. It's the most powerful
rocket ever created, but it is still in
the early stages of development.
Industry leaders have expressed concern
that the long timeline could cause NASA
to lose the new moon race against
countries like China, India, and Russia.
Duffy says he's willing to let other
companies bid, including Jeff Bezos Blue
Origin, which has its own contracts for
other future Artemis missions. NASA
hasn't landed an astronaut on the moon
since the Apollo missions more than 50
years ago.
Pop quiz hot shot. What does the term
etude mean in piano music? slow lyrical
work, study or exercise piece, fast
dance piece, or improvised solo.
If you said study or exercise piece, you
better work. Frederick Shopan is the
composer most famous for his etudes.
Short, technically challenging songs
that also have a great emotional and
musical depth. Have you ever heard of
the Piano Olympics? They're formerly
known as the International Shopan
Competition taking place in Warsaw,
Poland. They're held just once every
five years, and competitors perform
pieces by the iconic Polish composer
Frederick Shopan, who's become somewhat
of a patron saint for emotional and
beautiful classical music. This year's
winner, Eric Louu, a 27-year-old
classical pianist from Massachusetts,
was selected the winner by a panel of 17
judges. He beat more than 180 other
talented musicians. Here's part of this
Shopan Showdown.
lose prize $60,000 or about $69,000
along with a gold medal. On this day in
history, October 23rd, 2001, the Apple
iPod was officially announced. For all
of us old heads, when the iPod came out,
it was epic. I was in love like music,
fallen like Alicia Keys. Make like Nelly
and ride with me as I reminisce a little
more. The iPod is now like an ancient
ancestor of the iPhone. No calling, no
texting. It was just music, like a
high-tech tiny juke box about the size
of a deck of cards with a library of our
favorite songs at our fingertips. You
could store about 1,000 songs on it. And
at the time, that was crazy like Casey
and Jojo because most people were still
storing their music in stacks of CDs or
cassette tapes. We tapped our CNN 10
vault so you can see how we reported on
this at the peak of its popularity more
than 20 years ago.
To grab hold of the hottests selling
consumer gadget on the planet, you must
move fast. A polished, beautiful iPod is
sold every 2 seconds. It's sleek. It's
modern.
>> It's small and it has a lot of music.
>> Really, really easy to use.
>> We have sold now over 10 million iPods.
Hard to walk down any street now and not
see white headphones coming out of out
of people's ears.
>> On the surface, this darling of the tech
world is simply a hypercharged music
machine, a portable computer hard drive
capable of recording and playing 10,000
songs, 21 days of non-stop music. The
problem is, unless you're a radio
station, you don't own that much music.
So the rapidly expanding cult of pod is
coming up with all sorts of ideas about
what to do with that extra space.
>> At the Brley School in New York,
>> students study foreign languages on
iPods.
>> Now they can hear anytime how they sound
compared to a native speaker of French
or Chinese. And that helps us with like
hearing other people speak and hearing
how we're supposed to be pronouncing
things.
>> We would love to use it more for the
history department. There are quite a
few applications in the sciences. I can
see this expanding to many other
departments in in the coming year.
>> The applications go on. Katherine
Cornelius is an artist buying an iPod
with photo storing capabilities.
>> It's easy for me to have my portfolio on
that while I'm, you know, who know who
knows who I could run into and show my
work to. Critics complain that the
rechargeable battery must be replaced by
a technician. Competitors say their mock
pods offer better sound quality, but
everyone watching the tech business
knows Little Pod sets the pace.
>> Basically, if you want to compete with
Apple on this thing now, you got to you
got to have an iPod knockoff. You can't
do something much different. So, it's
changed the world that way.
>> Today's story getting a 10 out of 10. A
selfless St. Louis teen using a
once-ina-lifetime chance to help others
in need. 17-year-old Cat Gaylord has
been in and out of the hospital for
nearly her entire life, battling a brain
tumor. And she wanted to find a way to
give back to those who helped save her
life.
>> I wanted to really raise money for my
surgeon who's been a big part of my life
since I was 3 years old. I didn't know
exactly what way I wanted to do it. She
used her wish through the Makea-Wish
Foundation to launch her own line of
special bracelets. Each color has its
own meaning, and 100% of the proceeds go
to fund pediatric brain tumor research
at a local children's hospital. She had
some help from the pros, too. Cat
partnered with Atlanta based jewelry
creator Elizabeth Newton to bling this
idea to life. Newton is still in awe of
Cat's altruistic act. Being a part of
it, it's truly surreal.
>> She could have gone anywhere or met
anybody, but instead she wanted to use
her wish to make a difference in this
world. Cat's bracelets are now for sale
at a local boutique, being sported on
wrists across the country. It's a
dazzling example of how even small
things can have a huge impact and we can
turn our struggles into a strength. Rise
up. Let's get to our Friday Eve
shoutouts. This first one goes to Coach
Dice at Satillo ISD in Satio, Texas. Go
Lions. And this shout out goes to Mr.
Simmons at MidCarolina Middle School in
Prosperity, South Carolina. Thank you
for making me and my team a part of your
day. Thanks to all of you who've been
subscribing and commenting on our CNN 10
YouTube channel for your shout out
requests. Hope you have a thoroughly
thoughtful and thriving Thursday. I'm
going to see you right back here
tomorrow for Friday. We are almost
there. I'm Koi Wire and we are CNN Tent.
