This is in honor of my uncle, Camille Ojusang, who also passed away from this horrible disease

Now college students at the University of South Carolina's Mind Club are bringing the
0:16
ice bucket challenge back. This time to draw attention to mental health. At Mind, we believe conversations about mental health should
0:24
be just as common and just as comfy as conversations about physical health
0:28
will go to the national nonprofit Active Minds. We are just so thrilled with not only the fact
0:35
that we're benefiting from it, but more than anything, that this challenge is opening conversations
0:41
about mental health. I think it's a great cause for it to like help like with mental illness
0:46
especially how it's like a huge problem. I think the combination of COVID and social media
0:51
has really, really caused mental health challenges to soar. So I think this is exactly the right timing for something like this type of challenge
1:02
This new challenge is only a few weeks old, but it's already gone viral
1:07
And it's raised $400,000 for the nonprofit Active Minds, a goal well worth the dunk
1:15
Three, two, one. Sharon Crowley, Fox 5 News. macy's and herald square celebrating 50 the 50th anniversary of the flower show organizers say it

1:41

1:48
Don't go away. We'll be right back with a look at what you missed on the noon this week
2:02
Look at your Saturday forecast. Today showers and even a chance of thunderstorms
2:08
Tonight, the rain will mostly clear. Tomorrow, windy and cool with sun and clouds
2:15
The Rock and Soul Records store on West 37th Street is celebrating 50 years in business
2:20
The store is credited with nurturing the careers of some of the biggest hip-hop stars in the music industry
2:26
Natasha and Bianca spoke to the store's CEO on the 6 o'clock news about the big accomplishment
2:33
Your parents emigrated here from Israel back in 1975 and they decide they want to open up a music shop
2:40
Well, back then there were a lot of electronic stores on 7th Avenue
2:45
So it was just like one electronic store after the other. But in the back, there was a lot of music
2:51
And so my mom would run the record department. My dad ran the electronics department
2:57
And they were both very smart, business-minded. And they didn interfere with each other business And it probably how it managed also in their marriage How did it turn into what it is now though I mean because at the
3:13
time they're trying to survive they're trying to keep the business alive but then you have this massive influx of hip-hop from the 80s and 90s. When did
3:21
that turn? So a lot of those people were coming to the store they would Grand
3:26
Master Flash and Cool Herc and back in the beginning, the very beginning of hip-hop on DMC
3:32
they would come in and shop there. But what really, I think, was a pivotal moment was when
3:38
everyone stopped selling records. And when they stopped selling records, they were going to CDs
3:43
and then all of a sudden the DJs are like, wait, where are we going to get our records from? So it
3:48
became known as the last store that still had records. So then each DJ was telling their friends
3:53
and each producer would tell their friends, and then it became known as a DJ, a DJ Mecca
3:58
And so our electronics changed from, let's say, cameras, Ray-Bans, incense, or like whatever you would see in some of these stores, watches
4:09
They didn't really carry that anymore. They started carrying professional equipment for these DJs
4:13
And then the DJ was buying not one but two records to play on each turntable
4:18
Wow. So it's just kind of secret to their success was going with the times and being flexible and going with the flow
4:26
Totally. Totally just evolved with the times and listening to the customer
4:31
And when they heard what they were asking for, they were just, OK, two, three people ask us the same thing
4:35
We're going to order it. OK. So what does the store look like now when you walk through the doors here
4:40
We really do try to keep it very true to the way it was always looked
4:45
I can't tell you how many times we thought that records were going away completely
4:50
And then all of a sudden we're like, we never got rid of the records. We just didn't have the heart to get rid of the records
4:56
It was who we are and what people loved to see when they came into the store
5:01
Yeah. But it is really cool that now a lot of people have found that, like, love of og and music
5:08
Right. Through a different medium again. I think they miss having something tangible
5:11
Sharon, thank you so much. We appreciate you. Happy 50 years. That's amazing
5:17
We'll be right back. Good day weekend
5:29
Here's a look at your Saturday forecast. Today's showers and even a chance of thunderstorms tonight
5:35
The rain will mostly clear tomorrow, windy and cool with sun and clouds
5:40
Central Park is the home of a new brand pool and a community center
5:46
The new Davis Center at the Harlem Mirror will open today to the public following a $160 million upgrade
5:53
The organization responsible for managing the center held a ceremonial ribbon cutting to commemorate the opening
6:00
If you ever looked at your phone and thought there is no way I getting a charger in time you not alone and there is a name for when the dread sets in It called panic percentage Here Teresa Priolo
6:16
What percentage of cell phone battery gets your heart racing? 5%. 5%
6:23
Probably, yeah. I'm like 20%. Actually, just went down to 20% before I picked
6:27
Mine went down to 1%. I was at 1% today. From your jeans to your bangs, there's a lot that'll give you away as a boomer, a millennial, and even a Gen Zer
6:35
But the most telling sign of all might be right in your hand. How much battery do you have on your phone
6:40
It's really low. How low? I would say 3% maybe now. 3%
6:45
Yes, I mean. You don't look like you're panicking. No. It's your panic percentage, the amount of cell phone battery life that starts to get your heart racing
6:55
How low will you let it go? I'm curious, what's your battery at on your cell phone
6:59
Let's see. Oh my God. 76%. What does that number need to get to before you start to freak out
7:08
Like 20% when it goes on red. Tucker Research surveyed 2,000 people
7:12
They found for most of us, when your battery gets to 38%, that's when you start to freak out
7:17
It's higher if you're a millennial and much lower if you're a boomer. The anxiousness that comes with that screen time and that phone usage is really a trend among younger people
7:29
older people can live without it or can maybe kind of skate on the edge a little a little longer
7:34
gen z needs their phones at 44 percent millennials at 43 percent gen x hovers around 38 percent and
7:41
boomers 34 percent but one in eight don't start to panic until the battery is in the red and at 10
7:47
percent this lady is the one in eight how long will you wait before you plug it in even when it's dead
7:54
or another day I would say yeah you'll let it go a whole day dad she'll fall asleep with the
8:02
battery on zero that may be because she grew up without a cell phone unlike her grandson and even
8:06
people older than him if we think about it the younger you are the more likely you are to have
8:12
grown up with smartphones social media and connecting to people in this way the question
8:19
I have, is there a correlation between your cell phone battery and your gas tank? On the contrary
8:25
my gas has to be on the full side versus empty. Then that's a concern. In Clifton, New Jersey
8:31
Teresa Priolo, Fox 5 News. We can all relate. Now get ready to explore two culinary worlds
8:37
under one roof. Fox 5's Richard Jokovic takes us to the Bronx where pizza is getting a Vietnamese
8:43
flair in the Bronx you're sure to find a pizza parlor on every other block but
8:55
after nearly half a century of serving up just traditional pies anyone for bomb
9:01
meat pizza we do from our heart two years ago Elizabeth Lee and her husband
9:06
Michael Tran bought Sorrento's pizzeria from an Italian owner who wanted to
9:10
retire Elizabeth and Michael took a risk and opened Vipha and Pizzeria a first of its kind Italian and Vietnamese restaurant We feel like we want to introduce the Vietnamese the authentic food to everybody
9:25
We want to open up our culture because Vietnamese, not a lot of people are basically in the Bronx
9:34
They don't have Vietnamese dish a lot. Despite this being a predominantly Italian neighborhood, the gamble paid off
9:41
Vipha is bustling most days for lunch and dinner with traditional Vietnamese rice dishes and soups and, of course, pizza
9:48
So the combo works even in the Bronx. Yes, of course, for sure
9:53
All right, so here's another first, banh mi, a Vietnamese street food sandwich on pizza
9:59
It's one of those popular dishes here at Vipha, so much so that it's gone viral on Instagram and TikTok
10:05
It's what people come in here for. For Elizabeth and Michael, though, they say it's more than just the quality of the food that they attribute to their success
10:12
It's also the love they say they put in when preparing it. So I cook for me. It means for my family
10:19
If they cook for me, it means it's good for customers. A reminder to those in this Bronx community that while their backgrounds may differ
10:26
it's the love and unity found in each dish that truly brings people together
10:30
In the Morris Park section of the Bronx, Richard Giacobis, Fox 5 News
10:34
Four endangered babies made their debut this week at the Philadelphia Zoo
10:40
Crowds welcoming the western Santa Cruz tortoises that were hatched at the zoo
10:46
The parents are the zoo's oldest residents, estimated to be around 100 years old
10:52
Mom arrived in the city 93 years ago. Mommy came here as a 40-pound animal, and now she's pushing 300 pounds
11:01
So she grew up here along with all the visitors who came here to see her
11:07
And now the grandparents are bringing their grandkids, and those grandkids are going to see the hatchlings
11:14
and bring their grandchildren where they grew up. And for the foreseeable future, the babies will remain in their space
11:22
until they get much bigger and eventually will hang outside with their parents
11:27
Look at them. And a special elephant made its debut this week at the St. Louis Zoo
11:34
Jet is the first Asian elephant calf born through artificial insemination. The zoo says he's grown more than 300 pounds since birth, now weighing in at 600 pounds
11:47
Asian elephants are at risk of extension, that is, because of the loss of habitat
11:54
less than 50,000 of them remain in the wild today. London's famous animated pig family is about to
12:03
grow. The kids show Peppa Pig held a gender reveal part of London's iconic power station
12:11
let up in light pink showing Peppa will be getting a new baby sister when mommy gives
12:17
birth this summer. And that does it for us
