This is K-Beach 88 News at 12 o'clock brought to you by American Airlines and this is Anthony Rath reporting. On December 7th, 2023, the most current anniversary of Pearl Harbor, Dick Higgins was honored by a local high school in Bend, Oregon, being recognized as a local hero and named it Bend Bear. The Bend City Council went a step further by recognizing the day before as Dick Higgins Day. Dick Higgins was a native of Orange County and was the last survivor of the Pearl Harbor Survivors Association's Orange County Chapter 14. Higgins passed away just yesterday on March 19th at 102 years of age. The California Lottery has nearly reached a $1 billion payout. At the time of the latest drawing, the winning numbers were 24, 46, 49, 62, 66, and the gold mega ball was 7. No one claimed the $893 million purse. Four tickets each had five numbers, but none had all six. According to the California Lottery website, Lynch's Liquor and Deli in Sacramento sold a $1,748,612 ticket. The grand prize is now at $977 million. The next drawing will be held on Friday night. Six Mississippi former police officers were charged with the torture of two black men. Four of the six have now been convicted. The third convicted officer, Daniel Opdycke, pleaded guilty and offered an apology to the victims in his statement he read to them. Opdycke has been sentenced to over 17 years in federal prison. All six officers are white. They broke into the home of Eddie Parker and Michael Jenkins without a warrant and subsequently assaulted the men. Opdycke played a key role in the investigation when he turned over the text messages between the officers of the incident on the encrypted messaging service WhatsApp. Opdycke has also been ordered to provide restitution to the victims in the amount of $79,500. Just last week, the FAA proposed a rule requiring that Boeing operators inspect the wings of 270 737 MAX airplanes in the U.S. for wing damage. Within the next three years, the Boeing 737 has been written up multiple times for signaling problems with the left wing spoiler. The FAA has publicly identified unsafe conditions that could result in loss of control of certain Boeing 737s. These newest malfunctions come eight months after Boeing released a service bulletin worldwide to voluntarily inspect wire bundles. Quality control challenges are thrusting Boeing into crisis. 316 years ago, one of Spain's ships, the San Jose, was sunk by British warships near Cartagena, a port city on Colombia's Caribbean coast. The San Jose was returning to Spain in 1708, full of treasure, intended to provide funding towards Spain's succession. The ship has remained untouched and was rediscovered in 2015. The treasure is worth $17 billion. The Colombian government will spend $1,073,646 to recover the ship. 600 people lost their lives when the ship sunk. Zegar Odani, Executive Director, Green Energy Ltd. A.G.E.L. is the nephew of Asia's second richest man, Guatam Odani. The $100 billion fortune stems from being India's biggest coal importer and leading miner of the mineral. A.G.E.L., under Odani's direction, is now in the process of building the world's biggest clean energy plant on the edge of western India. The plant will be five times the size of Paris, visible from space, and generate enough electricity to power Switzerland. The cost to build the sprawling solar and wind-powered plant is $20 billion. The plant should be completed in five years and is expected to generate enough clean energy to power 16 million Indian homes. India has the fastest-growing economy and is the world's most populous nation. The success of the plant is critical to reducing pollution as a result of these factors.
