Bureau of Meteorology Removes 'Black' Warning Scale Amid Severe Storms. Jeremy Zakis discusses how the Bureau of Meteorology (BOM) launched a confusing new website during one of the Eastern Coast's worst storm seasons. They controversially removed the color "black" from the weather radar scale, which previously denoted the most severe weather, including heavy hail and flooding. When a major Queensland storm hit with only "red" warnings, people were unprepared, resulting in extensive property damage. Meanwhile, Queensland is facing highly unstable conditions, including rare reported water spouts and a tornado watch along the coastline.

Jeffrey Epstein's death inside his Metropolitan Correctional Center cell revealed a staggering breakdown of basic federal detention protocols. Despite being a high-profile inmate previously placed on suicide watch, Epstein was left alone after his cellmate was inexplicably transferred the night before his death, and guards neglected to conduct mandatory 30-minute checks. Surveillance cameras outside his cell malfunctioned, leaving critical moments unrecorded, and the scene itself appeared disordered—mattresses stacked, linens scattered, and personal items misplaced—raising questions about contamination of evidence. Investigators later admitted that the cell had not been properly preserved as a potential crime scene, an extraordinary failure given Epstein's notoriety and the global attention surrounding his incarceration.Further deepening suspicion were the materials found inside the cell, including bed sheets and cords that should have been restricted for any inmate with a prior suicide incident. Epstein's neck injuries also became a source of contention: the official medical examiner declared suicide by hanging, but independent pathologists claimed the wounds were more consistent with strangulation. Combined with camera gaps, staff negligence, and the Bureau of Prisons' evasive explanations, the circumstances surrounding Epstein's cell at the time of his death have come to symbolize one of the most glaring institutional failures in modern U.S. corrections—fueling widespread belief that the full truth has yet to be told.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

For decades, the FBI sat on a mountain of evidence implicating Jeffrey Epstein in the trafficking and abuse of underage girls—evidence that could have led to his prosecution long before his 2019 arrest. Victim statements, flight logs, financial records, photographs, and corroborating witnesses were all available in various forms as early as the mid-1990s. Multiple law enforcement agencies, including local police in Palm Beach, had already compiled damaging information and flagged Epstein's pattern of recruiting minors for sex acts. Despite this, federal authorities consistently failed to act, allowing him to maintain his wealth, freedom, and influence while continuing to victimize girls with impunity.The inaction wasn't due to a lack of evidence—it was a deliberate choice. The FBI not only delayed meaningful investigation, but in some cases appeared to retreat altogether, especially after Epstein's 2008 sweetheart plea deal in Florida. Rather than pursuing the obvious interstate and international dimensions of his crimes, the Bureau allowed the case to go cold, even as new allegations emerged. Whether out of institutional cowardice, political interference, or worse, the result was the same: the most powerful federal law enforcement agency in the country turned a blind eye to one of the most prolific sex traffickers of the modern era while survivors were left unheard, and Epstein's network remained intact.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:https://lawandcrime.com/high-profile/fbi-had-dirt-that-could-have-unraveled-jeffrey-epsteins-entire-network-more-than-a-decade-ago/Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

Advisors on This Week's Show Kyle Tetting Art Rothschild Steve Giles (with Max Hoelzl, Joel Dresang, engineered by Jason Scuglik) Week in Review (Oct. 27-31, 2025) Significant Economic Indicators & Reports Monday An indicator of demand for manufactured products, the Commerce Department's report on durable goods orders, was unavailable because of the federal government shutdown. Tuesday Housing prices continued slowing in August, according to the S&P Cotality Case-Shiller national home price index. The measure showed a 1.5% year-to-year gain in residential prices, the lowest in more than two years and below the overall inflation rate for the fourth straight month. An S&P analyst said the housing market has been trying to find a sustainable equilibrium following its post-pandemic boom. He added, "(H)omeowners are watching their real equity erode while buyers face the dual challenge of elevated prices and high borrowing costs." The Conference Board said its consumer confidence index moved sideways in October. The index dipped slightly from September with lower expectations offsetting consumers' marginally higher opinion of the present situation. The business research group said pessimism about the future continued to suggest an impending recession for the ninth month in a row. Prices and inflation remained the top concerns among survey respondents. Mentions of tariffs declined from earlier surveys but stayed elevated. Some consumers expressed dismay about the federal government shutdown. Wednesday The National Association of Realtors said its pending home sales index was unchanged in September and down 0.9% from the year before. The trade association said lower mortgage rates and increased wealth effect – from record-high stock prices and elevated home values – could not overcome apparent softening in the job market.  The pending sales index remained more than 25% below its 2001 base, which the Realtors consider a normal level of sales activity. As expected, the Federal Open Market Committee lowered short-term lending rates by one quarter of a percentage point for the second time in six weeks. The Federal Reserve Board's policy-making body said continued consideration of slowing labor markets prompted it to loosen monetary control, though it also expressed reluctance to lower rates while inflation stayed above the long-term target of 2%. The September Consumer Price Index showed broad inflation rising at a 3% annual rate, although more complete data reports have been curtailed by the federal government shutdown. Thursday The broadest measure of U.S. economic output, the quarterly report on gross domestic product, was not available from the Bureau of Economic Analysis because of the federal government shutdown. The GDP report includes the Fed's preferred measure of inflation, the personal consumption expenditure index. The Labor Department's report on initial unemployment insurance claims was not available for the fifth week in a row because of the federal government shutdown. Friday The Bureau of Economic Analysis did not release its consumer spending report for September because of the federal government shutdown. Market Closings for the Week Nasdaq – 23725, up 520 points or 2.2% Standard & Poor's 500 – 6840, up 49 points or 0.7% Dow Jones Industrial – 47563, up 356 points or 0.8% 10-year U.S. Treasury Note – 4.10%, down 0.10 point

In this episode of The Breakfast Leadership Show, we explore how California continues to lead the nation in wage growth and what that means for both employers and employees navigating a rapidly changing economy. Recent analysis from Keller Executive Search, using data from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, reveals that California saw a 6.55% increase in average weekly wages between 2023 and 2024, ranking fifth in the nation. The state's average weekly pay rose from $1,757 to $1,872, a gain that not only outpaced the national average of 4.88% but also exceeded inflation. We unpack the driving forces behind this growth, including the strength of California's technology, entertainment, and professional services sectors, and what this says about the broader labor market. While these gains signal that many workers are seeing real increases in purchasing power, California's high cost of living continues to offset some of that progress, making long-term affordability and retention key issues. The discussion also dives into how leaders can respond strategically: Investing in continuous skill development to keep pace with evolving demands. Creating adaptable workforce plans that align with economic cycles. Balancing compensation growth with organizational sustainability. Ultimately, this episode challenges both employers and employees to view wage growth as more than a paycheck shift. It is a signal of transformation in how we work, hire, and lead in an economy defined by rapid innovation and constant reinvention.

Nineteen Democratic attorneys general, led by California AG Rob Bonta, are urging the CFPB not to reduce its supervision of key consumer finance sectors, including auto lending, debt collection, and money transfers. The AGs warn that raising the thresholds for “larger participant” oversight would leave millions of consumers unprotected and weaken the CFPB's enforcement reach. The letter signals states' continued commitment to fill potential gaps in federal oversight through coordinated enforcement. Hosted by Simone Roach. Based on a blog post by Paul L. Singer, Beth Bolen Chun, Abigail Stempson, and Darby B. Hobbs

THE BONE THIEF brings us archeologist Syd Walker, a Cherokee woman working for the Bureau of Indian Affairs as she is called to investigate the bones of a young indigenous woman from centuries past – as well as investigating a missing teenager from the Narragansett tribe.

Welcome to a slightly unhinged conspiracy theory about the strategic advantage of spilling divorce tea and yes, it involves real estate. Also, is cutting out friendships the ultimate life hack? Some of the trad wives certainly think so, saying they've given birth to and married the only friends they need. And there are some Australian workplaces having some particularly awkward meetings today - the schools that set the wrong subject for the HSC exam, and... the BOM. What colour is drizzle, anyway?

Victorian farmers are the latest to weigh in on the controversial Bureau of Meteorology website redesign.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Bureau of Meteorology told to make changes to its new website after a refresh sparked backlash from users, a new state of the industry report finds SA is producing around 20% of Australia's total vegetable value, and sHedway founder Carol Mudford named the 2025 AgriFutures Rural Women's Award National winner.

When Ghislaine Maxwell was arrested in July 2020, then–Attorney General William Barr publicly praised federal agents for bringing her into custody and assured the public that the Department of Justice would pursue Epstein's network “wherever the evidence led.” In interviews with ABC News and others, Barr said he was “very happy we were able to get Miss Maxwell,” adding that the government was still seeking cooperation from figures such as Prince Andrew. He also personally ordered the Bureau of Prisons to install “redundant monitoring systems” around Maxwell's detention, stating he wanted to ensure there would be no repeat of what happened with Jeffrey Epstein. This came just months after Barr had described Epstein's death as “a perfect storm of screw-ups,” promising the Justice Department would “continue to pursue anyone who was complicit.”Barr's remarks, made during the Trump administration, were meant to project accountability but drew mixed reactions. Some legal observers noted that Barr—whose father once hired Epstein at the Dalton School decades earlier—was attempting to rehabilitate the DOJ's image after widespread outrage over Epstein's 2019 death in federal custody. Nonetheless, Barr repeatedly emphasized that Maxwell's prosecution was part of a “vigorously continuing” investigation, assuring the public that “no one is above the law.” His statements framed Maxwell as the living proof of the DOJ's commitment to finishing what Epstein's death had interrupted.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

This week, I chat with Vanessa Lillie about her new thriller in her Syd Walker series, The Bone Thief! We dive into her inspiration for the story, the research she did to incorporate historic and contemporary elements, and the social structures that inspired the Founders Society.The Bone Thief SynopsisIn the hours before dawn at a local summer camp, Bureau of Indian Affairs archaeologist Syd Walker receives an alarming call: newly discovered skeletal remains have been stolen. Not only have bones gone missing, but a Native teen girl has disappeared near the camp, and law enforcement dismisses her family's fears.As Syd investigates both crimes, she's drawn into a world of privileged campers and their wealthy parents—most of them members of the Founders Society, an exclusive club whose members trace their lineage to the first colonists and claim ancestral rights to the land, despite fierce objections from the local tribal community. And it's not the first time something—or someone—has gone missing from the camp.The deeper Syd digs, the more she realizes these aren't isolated incidents. A pattern of disappearances stretches back generations, all leading to the Founders Society's doorstep. But exposing the truth means confronting not just the town's most powerful families, but also a legacy of violence that refuses to stay buried.  Get Bookwild MerchCheck Out My Stories Are My Religion SubstackCheck Out Author Social Media PackagesCheck out the Bookwild Community on PatreonCheck out the Imposter Hour Podcast with Liz and GregFollow @imbookwild on InstagramOther Co-hosts On Instagram:Gare Billings @gareindeedreadsSteph Lauer @books.in.badgerlandHalley Sutton @halleysutton25Brian Watson @readingwithbrian

The SS Andaste was a semi-whaleback, self-unloading freighter built in 1892 by the Cleveland Shipbuilding Company. In 1925, a self-unloading system was added to her deck making her a bit top-heavy and unstable. On September 9, 1929, she was lost in a storm on Lake Michigan, while transporting a load of gravel from Ferrysburg (Grand Haven), Michigan to Chicago. All 25 on board perished. The wreck of the Andaste has never been found, but Great Lakes shipwreck hunters are actively searching for her.

Amid the ongoing government shutdown, we look at alternate sources of data to draw a picture of what's happening with inflation, the labor market, and home sales. Our experts provide insights on the market's reaction to these reports, the anticipated Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) meeting next week, and the performance of different sectors and asset classes. We also touch on some unusual market dynamics, with low-quality and high-beta stocks outperforming higher-quality companies. Finally, we talk sandwiches in celebration of National Bologna Day. Speakers:Brian Pietrangelo, Managing Director of Investment StrategyGeorge Mateyo, Chief Investment OfficerStephen Hoedt, Head of EquitiesRajeev Sharma, Head of Fixed Income 02:06 – We highlight three key reports from the week: state-level initial weekly unemployment claims suggest no cause for concern, existing home sales are up slightly, and—despite the government shutdown—the Bureau of Labor Statistics was allowed to compile and release a mixed but overall favorable Consumer Price Index report.06:00 – Corporations seem to be navigating increased costs due to tariffs by cutting their labor force.08:50 – The Fed is likely to cut interest rates by 25 basis points at next week's FOMC meeting, with many expecting another 25 basis point cut in December, and several more next year. 10:44 – October continues to be a rally month for the bond market thanks to low market volatility, tight credit spreads, and abundant liquidity.12:59 – Equities continued to climb and set all-time highs as third quarter earnings season continues, with a spotlight on reports from Microsoft, Amazon, and Meta next week.15:53 – We discuss differences in quality within the equities and bond markets, and posit an apparent shift in principles and heuristics in equities between the pre- and post-pandemic periods. Additional ResourcesRead: Key Questions: Should Investors Get on Board With the Reshoring of American Manufacturing? Weekly Investment BriefKey QuestionsSubscribe to our Key Wealth Insights newsletterFollow us on LinkedIn

Our U.S. Software Analyst Sanjit Singh explains how AI is reshaping software development and why the future for the sector may be brighter – and busier – than ever.Read more insights from Morgan Stanley.----- Transcript -----Welcome to Thoughts on the Market. I'm Sanjit Singh, the U.S. Software Analyst at Morgan Stanley.Today: how AI is transforming software and what that means for developers.It's Friday, October 24th, at 10am in New York.There's been a lot of news stories and anecdotal accounts about AI taking over jobs, especially in the software industry. You may have heard of vibe coding, where people can use natural language prompts, guiding AI to build software applications. So yes, AI is creating a world where software writes itself. But at the same time, the demand for human creativity only grows.The introduction of AI coding assistants has dramatically expanded what software can do, fueling a surge in both the volume of code and the complexity of projects. But instead of shrinking the developer workforce, AI is actually supporting continued growth in developer headcount, even as productivity soars.We're estimating the software development market will grow at a 20 percent compound annual growth rate, reaching $61 billion by 2029. And that's up from $24 billion in 2024. And in terms of the developer population, [research] firms like IDC expect it to jump from 30 million paid developers in 2024 to 50 million by 2029 – that's a 10 percent annual growth rate. Even the most conservative estimates, like those from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, see developer jobs growing roughly 2 percent per year through 2033, outpacing overall employment growth.So, what does this mean for people behind the code? AI isn't replacing developers. It's redefining them. Routine tasks are increasingly handled by AI agents, and this frees up developers to become curators, reviewers, architects, and most important problem-solvers.The upshot? Companies may need fewer developers for repetitive work, but the overall demand for skilled engineers remains robust. As AI lowers the barrier to entry, the pool of people who can build software applications expands dramatically. But at the same time, the complexity and ambitions of projects rise, keeping experienced developers in high demand.No doubt, AI coding tools are delivering real productivity gains. Some teams are reporting nearly doubling their code capacity and cutting pull request times in half after adopting AI assistants. Test coverage has increased sharply, resulting in 20 percent fewer production incidents for some organizations. But there is a catch with all this AI-generated code. It's creating significant new bottlenecks downstream.An example of this is code review, which is becoming a major pain point. Many organizations are experiencing pull request fatigue, with developers rubber-stamping changes just to keep up. Some teams now require three reviewers for AI-generated change, compared to just one before. And in terms of automated testing, systems are getting overwhelmed because every change made with AI sets off a complete round of test.Now we estimate productivity gains from AI in software engineering at about 15–20 percent. But in complex projects, the gains are much lower, as the volume of new code often means more bugs and more rework – and hence more human developers.So where do we go from here? In our view, the future isn't about fully autonomous software development. Instead, large enterprises are likely to favor an integrated approach, where AI agents and human developers work side by side. AI will automate more of the software development lifecycle. And that not only includes coding – which, coding typically accounts for 10-20 percent of the software development effort – but other areas like testing, security, and deployment. But humans will remain in the loop for oversight, design, and decision-making. And as software gets cheaper and faster to build, organizations won't just do the same work with fewer people – they likely will do more.In short, the need for skilled developers isn't going away. But it's definitely evolving. And in the age of AI, it's not about man versus machine. It's about man with machine. And so with more software, we see more developers.Thanks for listening.

After an economic data blackout for weeks, we got an inflation update this morning showing a lower-than-expected increase in the consumer price index. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the price of everyday goods like gasoline, groceries, and rent costs rose 0.3% in September compared to August, and the annual inflation rate rose to 3%. That is above the Federal Reserve's target rate of 2% as policymakers there meet next week to decide their next interest rate move With the Fed, CEOs, investors, and pretty much everyone flying blind in regard to economic data, thanks to the nearly month-long government shutdown, how important was today's inflation update? Kenny Polcari, the Chief Market Strategist at Slatestone Wealth, joins Fox Business' Gerri Willis to discuss how investors are navigating the current data desert, the President's latest spat with Canada over trade talks, and some of the headlines coming out of the White House.

The inflation report was delayed due to the government shutdown and the White House said there will likely be no report next month. But even before the shutdown, experts were sounding the alarm after President Trump fired the head of the Bureau of Labor Statistics, expressing anger about employment numbers.

Well over 3 weeks into the government shutdown, economists are eager for federal metrics that help paint a picture of our nation's economy. To that end, the Labor Department brought back some workers from the Bureau of Labor Statistics to release the Consumer Price Index, or CPI. 10 days late, CNBC's Rick Santelli, Nomura's David Seif and Richard Bernstein Advisors's Michael Contopoulos dig into the numbers and what they mean for the data-driven Federal Reserve. It's the second-longest shutdown in U.S. history, and lawmakers like House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-New York) and Senator James Lankford (R-Oklahoma) are standing firm on their respective sides of the standoff. Both explain their perspectives on how the country can move forward. Plus, Target announced it would be laying off about 8% of its corporate workforce, and President Trump says he's halted trade negotiations with Canada over an Ontario ad featuring President Ronald Reagan criticizing tariffs.  Rick Santelli - 17:09 David Seif & Michael Contopoulos - 19:29Sen.

The morning Jeffrey Epstein was found dead in his Metropolitan Correctional Center cell, nearly every major jail protocol was broken. He was supposed to be checked every 30 minutes under suicide-watch procedures, yet the guards on duty failed to make their rounds for hours. His cellmate had been transferred out the night before and was never replaced, directly violating Bureau of Prisons policy that required Epstein to never be left alone. Both guards assigned to his unit were reportedly working extreme overtime shifts—one on their fifth consecutive day—and later admitted to falsifying log entries to make it look like they had conducted checks. Meanwhile, several of the security cameras near Epstein's cell were malfunctioning, leaving investigators without clear footage of the crucial time window when he died.When investigators arrived, they discovered the cell in complete disarray—evidence had been moved, and the body had already been removed before FBI agents could process the scene. Crime scene procedures weren't followed, key documentation was missing, and autopsy findings later added to the controversy surrounding his death. The Inspector General's report described a “cascade of failures,” from negligent oversight to ignored warnings, concluding that the Bureau of Prisons' incompetence created the perfect environment for Epstein's death to occur unchecked.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

After a week off from our public lands news round-up, we are back with more updates as attacks on public lands continue despite the government shutdown. The government shutdown has many impacts on our public lands, ranging from our National Parks and Forest Service to the Bureau of Land Management. While we spend a lot of time talking about our parks, BLM lands don't often get as much attention. In this episode, we focus on how BLM lands are changing in the short- and long-term amid the ongoing government shutdown.

Craig Collins remains in for Greg Corombos, and he notices a big mafia story arrives, just in time to honor his Italian heritage. Craig and Jim applaud some new Trump administration decisions on Ukraine, lament the fact that Zohran Mamdani looks like a shoo in to be the next mayor of New York City, and marvel at a big sports gambling scandal that led to the arrest of an NBA player and coach. First, Craig and Jim note that while it's been a long time coming, the Trump administration is hitting Russian oil giants Rosneft and Lukoil with new sanctions, cutting off the Russian firms from American banking systems and financial institutions, essentially barring them from operating in U.S. dollars. Trump is finally getting wise to the fact that all of his seemingly good conversations with Vladimir Putin never seem to results in Putin's policies. Next, President Trump doesn't see any way that anyone can beat Zohran Mamdani in the New York City mayor's race, and there's not a lot of evidence to counter the president's conclusion. In a year where a lot has gone right for the GOP, a major frustration is that no argument about Mamdani's extremism on everything from economics to policing to geopolitics has seemed to get traction. Finally, the Portland Trail Blazers face a tough lineup of opponents this year – the Warriors, the Lakers, and the FBI. The Bureau announced that it had arrested Blazers coach Chauncey Billups and Miami Heat guard Terry Rozier as  part of a pair of wide-ranging investigations related to illegal sports betting and rigged poker games backed by the Mafia. Jim and Craig acknowledge that while sports gambling is wildly popular, particularly among young men, the temptations and dangers of widespread legal sports gambling were predictable.Get 20% off your first purchase of classic menswear.

Reports are rising of addiction, overdose and death tied to 7-OH, a potent new synthetic drug. The painkiller is a lab-made offshoot of the herbal drug kratom. 7-OH is more than 10 times stronger than morphine and has been dubbed “gas station heroin” because it's sold openly in gas stations and vape shops, including here in California. At least six people in Los Angeles have died from overdoses related to the drug since this spring, and health officials warn it could cause an addiction crisis. We'll talk about how the state is trying to curb its use.

Meteorology Bureau Abandons Cyclone Forecasts Amidst Extreme Australian Weather Jeremy Zakis Jeremy Zakis reports that the Bureau of Meteorology (BOM) has stopped issuing cyclone forecasts for Western Australia for the first time in 50 years. The BOM admitted its models are failing due to unexpected ocean temperatures and upper atmosphere warming, resulting in unpredictable forecasts. New South Wales has experienced highly erratic weather, including the "hottest October ever" and three seasons—winter's end, spring, and the start of summer—in just two days. The warm temperatures are driving residents to the beaches and pools. Although recent rain has provided abundant food for wildlife, Jeremy warns that the currently lush grass will quickly become tinder dry, creating a severe bushfire hazard if lightning storms arrive before more rain. 1952 QUEENSLAND
