Episode 202: BPA OverviewWritten by Cameron Carlisle, MSIV, Ross University School of Medicine. Comments by Hector Arreaza, MD.You are listening to Rio Bravo qWeek Podcast, your weekly dose of knowledge brought to you by the Rio Bravo Family Medicine Residency Program from Bakersfield, California, a UCLA-affiliated program sponsored by Clinica Sierra Vista, Let Us Be Your Healthcare Home. This podcast was created for educational purposes only. Visit your primary care provider for additional medical advice._____________________Arr: Welcome to another episode of Rio Bravo qWeek. My name is Hector Arreaza, I'm an associate program director and faculty in the Rio Bravo Family Medicine Residency Program. Today my co-host is Cameron Carlisle, who is a 4th-year medical student finishing his last rotation of med school. Welcome, Cameron, please introduce yourself.Arreaza: What are we talking about today, Cameron?Cam: Dr. Arreaza, did you know you're probably carrying around a chemical in your body that mimics estrogen? In fact, a 2004 CDC study found over 92% of Americans had detectable levels of Bisphenol A (BPA) in their urine. Today's topic is BPA.BPA is everywhere: receipts, water bottles, canned foods, baby bottles, and even our dental fillings. It's one of the most ubiquitous endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs), which interferes with the body's hormone systems. That's why today's episode is about making the invisible visible. Our goals for today's podcast:Break down what BPA isShow how it affects the human bodyExplain how you and your patients can limit exposureEmpower both clinicians and the public with real, practical informationArreaza: Thanks for clarifying BPA today. It seems like we always have to learn about a new carcinogen or toxic substance that we are exposed to. I remember when I was a child, Yellow #5 became very concerning for the general public but it is still being used in our foods. So, it's good you are talking about this. What Is BPA?Cam: Bisphenol A (BPA) is an industrial chemical used since the 1950s, primarily in polycarbonate plastics and epoxy resins. It makes plastic clear, and is often found in:Water bottlesCanned food liningsBaby bottles (pre-2012)Takeout containersCash register receiptsDental sealantsArreaza: So, I've seen the “BPA-free” labels many times, and today I'm glad you are going to shed some light about it.Cam: What's alarming is that BPA leaches out of these products, especially when exposed to heat, acidity, or repeated use. A Harvard study found that people who drank from plastic bottles for just one week had a 69% increase in urinary BPA levels (Carwile & Michels, 2009).Arreaza: That's a lot of people 69%. Section 3: What happens when BPA gets into our body? How BPA Works in the BodyCam: BPA is classified as an endocrine disruptor, meaning it can bind to estrogen receptors and mimic or block natural hormone functions.It affects:Reproductive systems (both male and female)NeurodevelopmentThyroid signalingPancreatic β-cell functionMetabolism and fat storageEven low-dose exposure can disrupt cellular function. BPA acts as a xenoestrogen (foreign estrogen) and has been shown to alter DNA methylation, leading to epigenetic changes that persist across generations (Manikkam et al., 2013).Arreaza: So, BPA can cause epigenetic changes that can be inherited. BPA can persist for generations in your offspring.BPA's Health Impacts – What the Research SaysHere's where it gets serious. Let's go system-by-system:1. Reproductive HealthFemales: Linked to PCOS, infertility, and early puberty (Peretz et al., 2014).Males: Reduced sperm count and motility; altered testosterone levels.2. Pregnancy and Birth OutcomesIncreased risk of preterm birth, gestational diabetes, and low birth weight (Snijder et al., 2013).Studies show BPA crosses the placenta, directly affecting the fetus.3. Neurological DevelopmentAssociated with ADHD, anxiety, and impaired executive function in children exposed in utero (Mustieles et al., 2015).4. Metabolism and DiabetesBPA exposure is linked to insulin resistance, obesity, and type 2 diabetes, even at low doses (Lang et al., 2008).5. CancerAnimal and human data link BPA to increased risk of breast and prostate cancer via estrogenic mechanisms.6. MortalityA 2020 JAMA study found individuals with higher BPA levels had a 49% increased risk of all-cause mortality compared to those with lower levels (Gao et al., 2020).Arreaza: You are scaring me. I wonder what my BPA level is in my blood. Actually, BPA can be detected in urine. This is the most common approach for population-level biomonitoring, because BPA and its metabolites are mostly excreted in urine. Studies have found that BPA is present in most people, even up to 85–99% in large cohorts. Cam: That's literally everyone. Sources of BPA ExposureLet's talk about things we use every day:Thermal receipts (like from Target or Starbucks): BPA can transfer onto your skin and be absorbed, especially if your hands are wet or lotioned.Canned soups: One study showed that eating canned soup daily for five days led to a 1000% increased urinary BPA levels (Carwile et al., 2011).Plastic water bottles left in the car on hot days or plastic food trays for microwaving = chemical leaching.Baby bottles and pacifiers (pre-2012): primary concern for newborns.Arreaza: So, Cameron, you were exposed to BPA as a baby.Cam: Here's the jaw-dropper: We ingest up to 5 grams of plastic per week, roughly the weight of a credit card (WWF, 2019; University of Newcastle). This includes microplastics like BPA, which enter through food, water, and air.Arreaza: So, it translates into 40 lbs of plastic in a lifetime, by age 70. What can we do as family physicians?Family Medicine and Preventive CareAs family physicians, we are at the frontlines of prevention. Our role includes:Anticipatory guidance: during prenatal visits, well-child visits, and chronic disease managementScreening opportunities: ask about storage habits, microwave use, and receipt handlingEnvironmental health counseling: AAFP recommends addressing endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs) when relevant to a patient's concerns.It's not just about treating diabetes or obesity. It's about recognizing that environmental exposure may be a root cause.Arreaza: Prevention is my favorite topic!Cam: One helpful clinical practice:Arreaza: What else can we do to reduce BPA exposure?Practical Steps to Reduce BPAHere's what patients and doctors alike can do today:Switch to BPA-free products, but be careful, as replacements like BPS or BPF may also be harmful (Rochester & Bolden, 2015).Avoid microwaving or dishwashing plastic containers.Use digital receipts.Filter tap water using carbon filters, which can reduce microparticle ingestion.Choose fresh produce over canned goods when possible.Also, wash your hands after handling receipts, especially before eating or touching your face.Arreaza: What is our government doing to protect us?Public Health and Policy UpdatesRegulations are slowly catching up:The FDA banned BPA in baby bottles and sippy cups in 2012.The European Union has stricter limits, and France banned BPA in all food packaging in 2015.California's Proposition 65 requires BPA warning labels.Arreaza: Proposition 65, passed by direct voter initiative in 1986, “WARNING: This product contains chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm.”Arreaza: The FDA is planning to phase out petroleum-based food dyes (certified color additives) from the American food supply – marking a significant milestone in the efforts to protect the public. Cam: Many products still contain BPA analogs (BPS, BPF), which are not yet well-regulated.This is where clinician advocacy matters, where we can guide public opinion and support legislative change.Arreaza: So, millions of pounds of toxic substances are produced by many industries in the US. As physicians, we have to stay informed and update our patients.Cameron: How can we wrap up this episode?Conclusion and TakeawaysBPA is a hormone disruptor hiding in plain sight.People are exposed to BPA every day, but small lifestyle changes can dramatically reduce it.Family medicine has a role in education, prevention, and advocacy.Let's all be part of the solution for our health and future generations. Stanley (tumblers) are not sponsoring this episode, and we did not receive any money from them. Arreaza: That's it for today's episode of Rio Bravo qWeek. If you enjoyed this episode, share it with a colleague or medical student who may need to know about BPA. I'm Dr. Arreaza, signing off.Cameron: Hopefully, in the future I will talk to you about more endocrine disrupting chemicals.

In 2018, voters narrowly passed a ballot initiative, dubbed Proposition 4, to create an independent redistricting commission and redraw Utah's voting maps. State lawmakers, though, weren't having it. For the past six years, they've managed to thwart the implementation of Prop 4. But a judge's ruling last week could force their hands and alter the balance of power in Utah's congressional delegation.

Pour la première fois depuis bien longtemps, on a senti poindre une lueur d'espoir en ce qui concerne les négociations pour un gouvernement à Bruxelles. La mission de facilitation d'Yvan Verougstraete avait débouché sur une proposition. Proposition que presque tous les partis ont validée....Presque tous....et puis l'Open VLD a dit non. Renvoyant tout le monde à la case départ.En quoi consistait la proposition d'Yvan Verougstraete? Et pourquoi est ce que les libéraux flamands ont dit non ? On va voir ça avec Alexandre Noppe du pôle Pouvoirs.

The Boredwalk content team of Ansley Hutchinson, Tess Menzies, and Gabe Sanchez is back to discuss the controversial topic of gerrymandering and its impact on fair elections, particularly focusing on redistricting in the state of Texas. We explore how these practices affect political activism and California news, raising concerns about the future of democracy. Plus, we touch on Texas Governor Greg Abbott's role in these contentious issues and California Governor Gavin Newsom's plans to temporarily gerrymander California in response. We explain why we are voting "yes" on Proposition 50 in November's election in California to authorize this temporary redistricting counteroffensive, chat about Newsom's messaging pivot from squishy podcast host to social media trolling bad-ass, the naive and counter-productive purity testing of the left, Donald's new-found dislike of mail-in voting despite its popularity with his elderly base, as well as his feeble attempts to distract people from continuing to ask about the whereabouts of the Epstein Files. Moving on, we check in with the latest dispatch from Troll-sylvania, where we get to respond to a person who has never left his hometown, let alone his home state, claiming that California is a dystopian hellscape. This is followed by a nice palate cleanser as our hosts wrap up the episode by trading answers to questions pulled from our Delve Deck conversation card sets. This week we answer the questions "what trend do you hope never comes back into fashion?", "if you were a superhero, what would be your version of kryptonite?", and "what did you love as a kid that you still love as an adult?" Thanks for stopping by to hang out, commiserate, and (hopefully) laugh with us!

On today's AgNet News Hour, host Nick Papagni and co-host Josh McGill tackled two of the big issues shaping California agriculture right now—innovation in organic production and the political battle over Proposition 50. Organic Farming Innovation with Wilbur Ellis Josh sat down with Gina Colfer, Sustainable Solutions Agronomy Manager at Wilbur Ellis, to talk about the future of organic farming and the launch of their innovative new fertilizer product, Benvireo TerraLux. Gina explained how this nitrogen fertilizer is created by capturing and converting dairy waste into a clean, safe, plant-available nutrient source. The process not only provides organic farmers with a reliable tool for meeting crop needs, but also turns an environmental waste stream into something useful. Colfer also emphasized the challenges organic producers face, from high input costs to strict regulations. She stressed that success in organic farming requires a whole-systems approach—managing soil health, irrigation, habitat diversity, and biological inputs together. While markets for organics are strong, the costs of production continue to rise, making new tools like TerraLux crucial for growers looking to stay competitive. Assemblyman David Tangipa on Proposition 50 Later in the show, Nick welcomed Assemblyman David Tangipa, a former Fresno State Bulldog and strong advocate for Central Valley farmers. Tangipa spoke passionately about his fight in Sacramento against Proposition 50, calling it a partisan power grab designed to weaken the political voice of the Valley and rural California. He described the measure as a gerrymandered redistricting plan aimed at consolidating coastal political power while diminishing representation for farmers and rural communities. Tangipa urged farmers across the Valley to get involved, display signs, and most importantly, vote No on 50. He warned that if passed, the measure would make it even harder to address critical issues like water policy, regulation, and the economic survival of small farms. A Call to Action From innovative solutions to sustain organics, to the urgent need for farmer voices in California's political fight, today's AgNet News Hour highlighted the challenges—and opportunities—facing agriculture. Farmers are reminded that innovation is critical on the ground, but so is advocacy in the political arena.

But I don't want to focus on the Democrats right now. I want to focus on the Republican Party because one of the big things that's going to shape the midterms — which, make no mistake, are going to be nationalized — is how the American public feels about the GOP. That includes the party's overall image, the fact that they currently hold the House, Senate, and the White House, and the role of Donald Trump as president. Historically, that's usually the kiss of death in a midterm. The public looks at single-party control and, whether consciously or not, pulls back a bit. It's a check on power, and more often than not, it happens.I still believe, sitting here in late August of 2025, that Democrats are in a good position to take the House back in 2026. The redistricting mess adds some chaos, but even assuming that plays out neutrally or slightly in their favor, the historical precedent is clear — they should be competitive. That said, if we were heading toward something other than a typical midterm correction, you'd start to see signs. Not signs that Democrats are collapsing — that's already evident in other areas — but signs that voters are unusually comfortable with Republican governance.And you know what? Those signs are there.If I had to judge the early terrain by three hard metrics, I'd go with national fundraising, party registration, and the president's approval rating. Let's start with the money. The Republican National Committee currently has $65 million in cash on hand. That's not an overwhelming total, but it's strong — especially with a year to go. More importantly, it's four times what the Democratic National Committee has. The DNC is sitting on just $15 million. That gap alone is bad enough, but it gets worse when you factor in spending decisions like Proposition 50 in California. That fight — to temporarily override the independent redistricting commission — is going to vacuum up cash from the same organizations and donors who would otherwise be investing in House flips. So the Democrats are undercapitalized, and they're committing resources to side projects.Then there's registration data. According to a recent New York Times report, Democrats have lost 2.4 million registered voters in swing states that track party affiliation. In the same set of states, Republicans have gained nearly that same amount. That's a five million voter swing. It's not just that Democrats are losing — Republicans are growing. That kind of shift doesn't usually happen in the middle of a polarizing presidency. People don't suddenly start checking the box for the incumbent party unless something is resonating. And considering the kind of term Donald Trump is having — rapid policy implementation, constant headline churn, immigration crackdowns, inflation waves, even distractions like the Epstein debacle — you'd expect backlash. Instead, you get a net positive in party affiliation.That brings us to approval ratings. Trump's RealClearPolitics average stands at 46.3 percent. He's still underwater, with 50.8 percent disapproving. But let's add context. That number is higher than Joe Biden, Bill Clinton, Barack Obama, or even Ronald Reagan had at this same point in their second terms. That's unusual. And while being underwater is never ideal, that 4.5-point spread is about what you'd expect for Trump when you factor in how he's consistently undercounted in national polling. And the range of poll results is all over the map — Rasmussen has him up one, Harvard Harris has him down two, YouGov has him down 12, and Gallup just released a poll with him down 16. But even Gallup's number is an improvement from previous weeks, which suggests that Trump's “tough on crime” stance — especially in DC — is landing.So when I step back and look at the full picture, what I see is a Republican Party that isn't being punished. That might sound basic, but it's a big deal. Historically, you'd expect that by now — with the administration moving aggressively, Democrats hammering every misstep, and inflation rising — the electorate would be turning. But instead, Republicans have a funding advantage, a registration advantage, and a president who's polling better than most of his second-term predecessors.That doesn't mean they're going to hold the House. The historical pattern still favors Democrats picking up seats. But it does mean that the GOP is better positioned than it has any right to be under these circumstances. And if your theory of the midterms is based on Trump's agenda — the one big, beautiful bill, cutting Medicaid, handing out tax breaks, and all the rest — then you have to reckon with the fact that, at least for now, it isn't hurting them. Maybe that changes. But if this were going to backfire, I would have liked to have seen a little something from it by now.Chapters00:00:00 - Intro00:04:20 - Early Midterms Thoughts00:16:21 - Update00:16:42 - Abigail Spanberger00:23:47 - Trump's Chinese Students Plan00:27:55 - Lisa Cook00:33:54 - Interview with Amanda Nelson01:26:10 - Wrap-up This is a public episode.

California's agricultural and transportation sectors are once again in the spotlight as state and federal policies clash, pests resurface, and long-delayed water projects inch forward. On today's AgNet News Hour, hosts Nick Papagni and Josh McGill broke down the latest developments impacting farmers, truckers, and communities across the state. EPA Pushes Back on California Trucking Regulations The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) announced it is moving to block California's latest heavy-duty vehicle inspection and maintenance rules for out-of-state trucks. The proposal argues that California's requirements conflict with the U.S. Constitution's Commerce Clause and the federal Clean Air Act. While the EPA's move may protect out-of-state truckers, California-registered fleets remain subject to the state's stringent standards. The hosts noted that this could accelerate a trend of trucking companies relocating to border towns like Reno, Nevada or Yuma, Arizona, where operating costs and regulations are far lighter. “Business is leaving California every day, and we're seeing the impact across industries,” Papagni warned. Imperial Valley vs. Yuma Lettuce Claims Listeners also weighed in on the ongoing debate between Imperial Valley and Yuma over winter lettuce production. While Yuma promotes itself as producing 90% of the nation's winter leafy greens, growers in Imperial Valley point out that much of the produce is still grown in California. Packers relocating across the Arizona border, they argue, are skewing the numbers. Medfly Quarantine in Santa Clara County In pest control news, officials detected two Mediterranean fruit flies in San Jose, triggering a quarantine in Santa Clara County. Medflies pose a devastating threat to fruit and vegetable crops, and the state is deploying a sterile male release program to contain the spread. The discovery highlights the ongoing vigilance needed to protect California agriculture from invasive species. Sites Reservoir Funding Boost Finally, there was a rare bit of good news for water storage. The Sites Reservoir Project received an additional $218.9 million in funding, raising its total eligibility to $1.094 billion. While construction is not expected to begin until 2026, with operations projected for 2032, the move signals renewed confidence in expanding storage capacity under Proposition 1, first approved by voters in 2014. Papagni summed up the sentiment shared by many farmers: “It's good to see progress, but California needs common-sense leadership to turn voter-approved projects into real water on the ground.”
Explosive update on California tenant laws — what the Legislature quietly did to property rights and how it affects landlords, renters, and anyone building housing. Part 2 breaks down Proposition 10 (2018), AB 1482, SB 267, AB 12, AB 2347, SB 567, and the newest safety protections — what changed, what's next, and how to protect your investment or your home. Quick summary Prop 10 (Nov 2018) — background on statewide rent control push AB 1482 — Tenant Protection Act (statewide rent cap & cause rules) Impacts on new housing: 5% + CPI cap, eviction cause limits, owner/family move-in rules (SB 567), and substantial remodel exceptions Section 8 changes (SB 267): no summary rejections; limits on using credit history as sole “ability to pay” metric Security deposits (AB 12): max 1 month (furnished or not); limited exceptions for small multi-unit owners Eviction timeline (AB 2347): extends tenant response to UD to 10 business days Fee changes: landlords cannot charge for serving eviction or other legal notices Domestic violence survivor protections (SB 1051 — approved July 2, 2024; effective Jan 1, 2025): landlord must change locks within 24 hours upon written request and cover cost Why you should watch If you own rental property, build housing, or manage units — these rules change revenue, eviction strategy, and rehab math. Practical tips on compliance, documentation, and minimizing risk.
Leigh's Proposition by Back Judge
This Day in Legal History: Personal Responsibility and Work Opportunity Reconciliation ActOn August 22, 1996, President Bill Clinton signed the Personal Responsibility and Work Opportunity Reconciliation Act into law, reshaping the American welfare system in ways that continue to spark debate. Billed as a way to "end welfare as we know it," the law imposed strict work requirements on recipients and introduced a five-year lifetime limit on federal benefits, regardless of economic conditions. The legislation replaced Aid to Families with Dependent Children (AFDC) with Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF), transforming a federal entitlement into a state-administered block grant system.Supporters of the reform hailed it as a bipartisan success, encouraging employment and reducing long-term dependency. But critics argue that the law eroded the social safety net and punished the poor, particularly single mothers and children, by prioritizing ideological goals over economic realities. States were given broad discretion in how to allocate funds, leading to uneven access and accountability. Many used their new flexibility not to expand support systems but to restrict eligibility and reduce caseloads, often with little evidence of improved outcomes.The law also failed to account for structural barriers to employment—such as childcare shortages, low wages, and racial discrimination—leaving many without support when they failed to meet work requirements. Moreover, the block grant's fixed funding has not kept pace with inflation or need, effectively shrinking welfare over time. While welfare rolls dropped sharply in the years following the reform, poverty did not—suggesting that many were simply pushed out of the system rather than lifted out of hardship. The 1996 law codified a narrative of moral failing over structural inequality, framing poverty as a matter of personal irresponsibility rather than systemic dysfunction.A federal judge ordered an immediate halt to new construction at the controversial "Alligator Alcatraz" migrant detention center in Florida's Everglades. The facility, championed by Donald Trump and Ron DeSantis, was barred from accepting new detainees and required to dismantle supporting infrastructure—including generators, waste systems, fencing, and lighting—within 60 days. The ruling, issued by U.S. District Judge Kathleen Williams, sided with environmental groups who argued the project violated federal, state, and local environmental laws.The detention center, estimated to cost $450 million annually and house up to 5,000 detainees, had drawn backlash for its location in a fragile wetland ecosystem populated by endangered species. Environmental advocates and some local leaders had long criticized the plan, noting it conflicted with decades of political pledges to protect and restore the Everglades. The Department of Homeland Security had tapped FEMA funds to support the project, raising additional controversy over funding priorities.In her ruling, Judge Williams emphasized that the project ran counter to longstanding legislative commitments to environmental protection. Florida has already filed an appeal, but environmental groups hailed the decision as a critical victory. Despite mounting opposition, Trump dismissed ecological concerns and reaffirmed his intent to replicate the model nationally as part of his broader immigration crackdown.Judge orders halt to new construction at 'Alligator Alcatraz' detention center | ReutersAlligator Alcatraz Expansion Blocked for Harm to Environment (1)California Governor Gavin Newsom signed a pair of redistricting bills designed to redraw congressional districts in favor of Democrats—part of an aggressive political response to a newly passed gerrymandered map in Texas. Both states are now embroiled in legal and constitutional battles, as Republicans and Democrats seek to lock in partisan advantages ahead of the 2026 midterm elections. Newsom also set a special statewide election for November 4, asking voters to approve the new map. If passed, it could flip up to five Republican-held House seats and secure four Democratic-leaning swing districts.California's strategy sidesteps its voter-created independent redistricting commission, which has been enshrined in the state constitution since 2010 to prevent political interference. Because of that, lawmakers are now required to get voter approval to implement their plan—creating a high-stakes ballot measure, Proposition 50. Republicans and good-government advocates, including Arnold Schwarzenegger and Charles Munger Jr., have vowed to fight the plan in court and on the ballot. A pending GOP lawsuit argues the legislature violated the state's 30-day waiting period for new bills, pushing through the redistricting effort without proper transparency.In Texas, the Republican-controlled legislature approved a new congressional map at the urging of President Trump, hoping to maintain a narrow House majority. Voting rights groups immediately challenged the plan, claiming it violates Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act by racially diluting Black and Latino voting power. The case will be heard by a federal three-judge panel in El Paso, with a likely fast track to the U.S. Supreme Court. Texas Republicans, including Governor Greg Abbott, deny any racial bias and argue the map reflects demographic shifts and Republican gains among minority voters.This escalating redistricting clash highlights the legal vulnerability of U.S. voting systems when partisan manipulation goes unchecked. Though the Supreme Court ruled in 2019 that federal courts cannot weigh in on partisan gerrymandering, racial gerrymandering remains justiciable under the Voting Rights Act. Meanwhile, California Democrats are relying on voter sentiment—and Trump's unpopularity in the state—to justify a temporary abandonment of anti-gerrymandering principles.Explainer: The legal battles over redistricting in Texas and California | ReutersNewsom Signs California Redistricting Plan to Counter Texas Republicans - The New York TimesA federal judge ruled that Alina Habba, President Trump's controversial appointee as interim U.S. Attorney for the District of New Jersey, had no legal authority to hold the office after her temporary term expired. U.S. District Judge Matthew Brann found that the Trump administration violated federal law by firing Habba's court-selected successor, Desiree Grace, and then using a series of procedural maneuvers to reinstall Habba. These included appointing her as “special attorney,” then naming her first assistant U.S. attorney to invoke the Federal Vacancies Reform Act.Brann concluded that Habba was unlawfully performing the duties of U.S. Attorney as of July 1 and that her actions from that point forward “may be declared void.” The ruling blocks her from overseeing or participating in criminal cases, and it extends to prosecutors operating under her supervision. The judge criticized the administration's strategy as an attempt to bypass Senate confirmation entirely by exploiting loopholes in temporary appointment rules, warning that this interpretation could let the executive branch install preferred prosecutors indefinitely.The Trump-appointed Attorney General, Pam Bondi, vowed to appeal, and Brann stayed his ruling pending the outcome. Still, the decision casts a shadow over prosecutions under Habba's leadership, and some courts in New Jersey have already paused proceedings. Brann also rejected the idea that firing interim appointees before their terms expire could justify continual reappointments without oversight.Defense attorneys in the case that triggered the ruling argued that the executive branch cannot sidestep a process designed to check prosecutorial power through judicial or Senate involvement. Though the judge refused to throw out defendant Cesar Pina's indictment—since the investigation began before Habba's unlawful tenure—the ruling reinforces that prosecutorial authority must be rooted in lawful appointment.Alina Habba Blocked From Handling Cases in Rebuke to Trump (3)This week's closing theme is by Claude Debussy.This week's closing theme comes from Debussy, born on August 22, 1862—an apt choice as we mark the anniversary of his birth. Debussy was a revolutionary figure in Western music, often associated with Impressionism, though he rejected the label. He sought to break from the rigid structures of the Germanic tradition, instead favoring color, atmosphere, and suggestion over clear-cut form and resolution. His music evokes shifting light, fluid motion, and emotional ambiguity—more akin to poetry or painting than to classical architecture.One of his early works, Rêverie, composed in the 1890s, offers a glimpse into the world he would come to define. The title means “daydream,” and the piece unfolds with a gentle, unhurried lyricism that floats outside of time. Though simple in construction, it is harmonically rich and emotionally resonant—hinting at the innovations to come in Clair de Lune, Prélude à l'après-midi d'un faune, and Pelléas et Mélisande.Rêverie was one of Debussy's first pieces to gain public attention, though he later dismissed it as “a piece for salon use.” Listeners have disagreed ever since. Its introspective tone and delicate touch make it a lasting favorite among pianists and audiences alike. It feels like a whisper—never urgent, never insistent, always inviting. In that sense, it's a fitting farewell for the week: contemplative, unresolved, and open to interpretation.Without further ado, Claude Debussy's Rêverie enjoy! This is a public episode.

California Farmers Under Pressure: California agriculture continues to face mounting challenges, and Andrew Genasci, Executive Director of the San Joaquin Farm Bureau, says advocacy is more important than ever. Speaking on the AgNet News Hour, Genasci shared how his background as a fourth-generation dairyman gives him perspective when representing farmers on the front lines of political and regulatory battles. “I know what it's like when the milk pump breaks at 3 a.m. or when a calf needs pulling on a holiday,” Genasci explained. “That experience helps me connect with elected officials and remind them that farmers are small business owners who don't clock out when something goes wrong.” Over-regulation at the Core When asked about the biggest issues heading into 2025, Genasci pointed to overregulation. From water restrictions and burn bans to mounting labor costs and overtime rules, he says Sacramento continues to push policies that squeeze family farms. “You've got legislators looking at 2,000 bills a year, and many of them impact agriculture. At some point you have to ask if we really need all these new laws,” he said. The impact goes beyond farmers' bottom lines. Genasci emphasized that overregulation drives up grocery store prices for families. “When we ban insecticides or cut labor hours, those costs show up at the checkout line. California farmers produce the safest, healthiest food in the world, but we're competing against imports from countries that don't face the same restrictions.” Water, Land, and Labor Genasci highlighted water as the single most pressing concern. While 2014's Proposition 1 promised billions for new storage projects, little progress has been made. Farmers in the San Joaquin Valley are forced to make tough choices, from fallowing ground to converting farmland into solar developments under AB 1156. Labor is another hurdle. “Farmers are paying $20 an hour just to compete with McDonald's. Once you add overtime, you're looking at $30 to $40 an hour—costs that simply aren't sustainable,” Genasci said. The result is fewer hours for workers and an accelerated push toward automation and robotics. A Call for Advocacy Despite the frustration, Genasci is clear: the fight for California agriculture is not lost. He urges farmers to stay engaged with organizations like Farm Bureau. “If we're not at the table in Sacramento and D.C., someone else is. Whether it's environmental groups or labor groups, they're telling their story. We need to tell ours.” He also sees education as key, especially for future generations. Through scholarships, FFA, and 4-H, Farm Bureau works to connect youth with agriculture. “They may not all stay in farming, but they'll understand the responsibility and the value of what it takes to put food on the table,” he said. As California continues to grapple with regulation, water shortages, and shifting labor markets, Genasci remains committed to ensuring farmers have a strong voice: “God gave us the best land in the world to farm. If we're going to keep feeding America and the world, we've got to fight for it.”

Faith and family can be anchors in a young life — or weights that threaten to pull us under. In this summer special of In the Key of Q, I revisit remastered episodes from four remarkable queer artists: JSky (UK), Ty McKinnie (US), Blake Mundell aka Courier (US), and Wuhryn Dumas (US). Each speaks candidly about growing up queer in environments steeped in religious expectation and traditional family roles.We hear how early love for music and community often existed alongside fear, shame, or silence, and how each of them has reclaimed their space in ways that honour both their identity and personal history. From Blake's candid account of conversion therapy to Wuhryn's reflections on becoming the role model he never had, these conversations challenge the idea that faith and queerness cannot coexist. Instead, they reveal the messy, human process of reconciling the two.It's an episode about reclaiming joy, asserting self-worth, and finding home, whether that's in a church, a studio, or simply in one's own skin.Timestamped Takeaways[00:00] Setting the stage: Introduction to the summer specials and the theme of faith and family for queer people.[00:01] Ty's Hallelujah baby years: Early joy in church life and music, before acceptance came with conditions.[00:02] Blake's nightly prayers: Internalising shame from evangelical messages, leading to years of self-questioning.[00:03] Wuhryn's early queerness: Family members naming his queerness before he understood it himself.[00:05] JSky's dual worlds: Balancing football culture with the joy of church music and his Nana's influence.[00:09] The false choice: Blake describes feeling forced to choose between being queer or Christian.[00:11] Unsafe at home: Ty recalls retreating from family conversations about sexuality and Proposition 8.[00:12] Direct confrontation: JSky's honest exchange with his religious grandmother sparks perspective change.[00:17] Reclaiming the sacred: Blake holds space for all his past selves; Ty builds new understanding with family.[00:21] Hugging on your own terms: Ty insists on physical affection despite discomfort.[00:21] Becoming the representation: Wuhryn's commitment to showing young queer Black boys that they can thrive.[00:24] Home you build: Closing reflections on finding sacred space beyond traditional institutions.Guest BioJSky – UK singer, broadcaster, and creative, known for blending music and storytelling.

California homeowners are facing a growing wildfire insurance crisis. With rising rates, reduced coverage options, and increased wildfire risk due to climate change and inflation, understanding your insurance options is more important than ever. In this episode of the All Things Wildfire podcast, host OP Almaraz speaks with Sharon Smith, Outreach Analyst at the California Department of Insurance, to discuss the challenges, solutions, and legislative changes shaping wildfire coverage in California. Why Wildfire Insurance Rates Are Rising in California Wildfire insurance premiums are increasing due to multiple factors: Climate change is driving more frequent and severe wildfires. Inflation has pushed up construction and repair costs. Outdated regulations under Proposition 103 have made it difficult for insurers to adapt pricing to today's risks. Sharon explains why Prop 103 needs modernization to better protect homeowners and keep insurance available in high-risk fire zones. Understanding Proposition 103 and Its Impact Proposition 103 is a decades-old regulation that governs how insurance rates are approved in California. While it was designed to protect consumers, many experts argue it hasn't evolved to address the current wildfire landscape. Modernizing Prop 103 could help stabilize the insurance market while ensuring fair treatment for policyholders. The Safer from Wildfires Program The Safer from Wildfires program is a state-led initiative to improve home resilience against wildfire damage. By completing specific home-hardening measures, homeowners may: Reduce their risk of fire damage. Qualify for potential insurance discounts. Increase their chances of keeping existing coverage. The California Fair Plan: Last-Resort Coverage For homeowners unable to find traditional coverage, the California Fair Plan acts as a safety net. However, it's meant as a temporary solution. Modernizing the Fair Plan is essential, especially for high-value homes that require broader protection. Admitted vs. Non-Admitted Insurance Carriers Understanding the difference between admitted insurance carriers (regulated by the state) and non-admitted carriers (not backed by the state's guarantee fund) is critical when comparing wildfire insurance policies. Sharon provides insights on the pros and cons of each option. Smoke Remediation and New Task Force Efforts Smoke damage after a wildfire can create serious health hazards. The California Department of Insurance has established a task force to address smoke remediation standards, helping homeowners get better results from their claims and contractors. Legislative Changes and Homeowner Resources Sharon discusses new legislative proposals designed to: Ease the recovery process after a wildfire. Improve claims handling by insurance companies. Provide more resources to homeowners navigating wildfire-related claims. The California Department of Insurance offers free resources to help property owners understand their rights, find coverage, and take preventive measures.

Concerns are growing that the galloping advance of artificial intelligence will imperil our jobs, freedoms and country. I call the phenomenon “FrankenAI,” and even some in the industry worry it's becoming a man-made monster. We're told the unregulated pursuit of AI is required to compete with Communist China or we'll be permanently dominated – militarily and economically. Some experts are warning, however, that by allowing China to buy AI-useful Nvidia H20 chips – and then profit from the sales, the Trump administration will help it beat us. While others contend those chips are widely available, and we'll stay ahead by selling them, we seem to be facing a lose-lose proposition: Facilitating Chinese AI dominance – even as we pursue technologies that may make us more like Communist China – appears to be a formula for FrankenAI, at their hands or ours. This is Frank Gaffney.
Capital tends to flow where it is treated the best. Well the state of Texas is considering a change to its constitution which will have no immediate impact on taxes. Currently the state of Texas has no state income tax for individuals or businesses. It also has no capital gains tax. Texas is currently in the process of considering a constitutional amendment that would permanently prohibit a state-level capital gains tax. This is a significant development, especially since Texas already has no state income or capital gains tax. The proposed change isn't to add a tax, but to legally block one from ever being enacted in the future.Texas voters will decide on Proposition 2, a legislatively referred constitutional amendment, on November 4, 2025.Of course any income earned in the state of Texas including capital gains is still subject to Federal income tax and capital gains tax. So why is this significant? When a jurisdiction is seen as business friendly, it tends to attract investment. It attracts more than its fair share of jobs and prosperity. This is sending a message to the business community that Texas is open for business and is open for investment and residency. This might be considered a PR stunt since in the short term it really changes nothing. But investment in a location starts with making a favourable first impression. It's one step along the path of many steps that are ultimately required to get a company to locate there. ---------------**Real Estate Espresso Podcast:** Spotify: [The Real Estate Espresso Podcast](https://open.spotify.com/show/3GvtwRmTq4r3es8cbw8jW0?si=c75ea506a6694ef1) iTunes: [The Real Estate Espresso Podcast](https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/the-real-estate-espresso-podcast/id1340482613) Website: [www.victorjm.com](http://www.victorjm.com) LinkedIn: [Victor Menasce](http://www.linkedin.com/in/vmenasce) YouTube: [The Real Estate Espresso Podcast](http://www.youtube.com/@victorjmenasce6734) Facebook: [www.facebook.com/realestateespresso](http://www.facebook.com/realestateespresso) Email: [podcast@victorjm.com](mailto:podcast@victorjm.com) **Y Street Capital:** Website: [www.ystreetcapital.com](http://www.ystreetcapital.com) Facebook: [www.facebook.com/YStreetCapital](https://www.facebook.com/YStreetCapital) Instagram: [@ystreetcapital](http://www.instagram.com/ystreetcapital)

In this episode, Dr. Jim Zeliff, DVM, MBA, joined us to discuss the emergence of mid-level veterinary practitioners. In November 2024, Colorado voters passed Proposition 129, creating a “veterinary professional associate” position. After two years of training and certification, these associates would be able to practice veterinary medicine under the supervision of a licensed veterinarian.The AVMA, AAEP, and many other veterinary associations are strongly opposed to this mid-level role. In the episode, Dr. Zeliff encouraged veterinarians to become involved in their state VMA to increase advocacy for equine and other sectors of veterinary medicine. In closing, he said increased utilization of licensed veterinary technicians is an important part of keeping VPAs out of equine veterinary medicine.The Business of Practice Podcast is brought to you by CareCredit.This information is shared solely for your convenience.

Because of the inherently limited scope of the land of the Bible, it is not to be regarded as having continuing significance in the realm of redemption other than its function as a teaching model.

A major victory for gun rights advocates: California's controversial 2016 ammunition law has just been ruled unconstitutional by the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals. Effective immediately, millions of Californians can buy ammunition without background checks or extra fees.Passed as Proposition 63, the law required a background check for every ammo purchase—until now. This landmark decision could have massive implications for gun legislation nationwide.
Steve Gruber talks with Charlie Kolean, State Director of Americans for Citizens Voting, about the upcoming press conference at the Texas Capitol urging support for Proposition 16.
