California is facing a major fuel crisis as two of its biggest oil refineries prepare to shut down—Phillips 66 in Los Angeles and Valero in Benicia. Experts warn this could cut up to 21% of the state's refining capacity, triggering gasoline shortages and driving prices as high as $8.43 per gallon by 2026.

In this episode of The Unfolding: Presented by The Loveland Foundation Podcast, host Rachel Keener sits down with Jamia Wilson—activist, writer, editor, and Vice President at Random House—for a conversation about the transformative power of storytelling. Jamia speaks to how stories can liberate, build empathy, and reimagine power, while she and Rachel reflect on the wisdom passed down from their parents and ancestors—encouragement, community-mindedness, and joy.Jamia also shares her perspective on self-care: setting boundaries as a way of honoring personal limits, embracing intentional rest, and creating rituals that replenish the spirit. Joy becomes a central thread throughout their discussion—not as something fleeting, but as resistance, healing, and connection.The conversation touches on Jamia's books A Year of Black Joy, which offers 52 practices for cultivating joy, and Make Good Trouble, inspired by John Lewis and the idea of activism rooted in joy. Together, Rachel and Jamia explore how curiosity, gratitude, and joyful defiance can shape not just personal growth, but collective empowerment.This episode is an invitation to rethink the role of joy in your life—not as an afterthought, but as a force for resilience and community.More about Jamia Wilson:Jamia is an award-winning feminist activist, writer, speaker, and podcaster.

California has long gone head-to-head with big oil, leading many of the efforts to curb climate damage caused at the hands of the fossil fuel industry – including spearheading lawsuits against oil companies and pushing fracking bans.  But faced with the closure of two state refineries, and rising gas prices, Governor Gavin Newsom has made some major concessions on oil to not only keep the refineries open, but to draft a bill for more drilling in Kern county. We'll talk about California's changing relationship with the oil industry, the state's efforts to phase out fossil fuels, and what's going to happen to gas prices in the meantime. Guests: Severin Borenstein, professor at UC Berkeley's Haas School of Business; faculty director of The Energy Institute at Haas; member, Board of Governors of the California Independent System Operator Lori Wilson, California State Assemblywoman, District 11 Alex Nieves, California transportation reporter, POLITICO Learn more about your ad choices.

Hey everyone I'm Gary Hoban and welcome to Refinery Life Australia.Today we are talking about The Discipline Of Discipleship.As the church worldwide and indeed this church are in a time of change, I would like us to consider two words, Discipline and Discipleship.Actually discipleship means discipline.The disciple is one who has been taught  and trained by the Master.He or she has come with ignorance, superstition, and sin to find truth and forgiveness from the Saviour.Without discipline we are not disciples, even though we profess Jesus' name.Recent generations have resented and rebelled against discipline.Liberty and license have replaced law and order. Furthermore, permissiveness has become a lifestyle with most people, including Christians.This lack of discipline is the enemy of faithfulness to God.It weakens compassion, because it places the first and primary emphasis on self.Bust just what do we mean by discipline?One dictionary defines it as “training that corrects, molds, or perfects the mental faculties or moral character”.Without difficulty, we can translate this definition into the spiritual realm.As growing, maturing, Christians, we will constantly be undergoing correction and molding, all leading to the ultimate perfection we will experience when we stand in Christ's presence.Until next timeStay in the BlessingsI really want to encourage you to be diligent with your Bible study time, because God has so much more for us than we can get from just going to church once or twice a week and hearing someone else talk about the Word.When you spend time with God, your life will change in amazing ways, because God is a Redeemer.Theres nothing thats too hard for Him, and He can make you whole, spirit, soul and body!You're important to God, and you're important to us at The Refinery.When it comes to prayer, we believe that God wants to meet your needs and reveal His promises to you.So whatever you're concerned about and need prayer for we want to be here for you!

During our Saturday Mornings Sit-Down Conversation, Andrew Dixon, Founder, Nikoi, Cempedek Islands and Jaya Putra of LooLa Resort discuss how Bintan’s local culture and sensitive marine sanctuary are being decimated due to an industrial park and aluminum refinery. Today’s Saturday Sit-Down takes us to the heart of Bintan—where rapid industrial expansion is colliding with fragile ecosystems and coastal communities. Joining us are two voices who know this island intimately: in the studio, Andrew Dixon, founder of Nikoi and Cempedak Islands, long-time champion of eco-tourism and marine conservation; and on the line from Bintan, Jaya Putra, Community Engagement Director at LooLa, an award-winning and beloved eco-resort destination for many Singapore school trips since the 1990s. As pressure mounts from the expansion of the Galang Batang Special Economic Zone—led by PT BAI and its powerful corporate backers—nature, livelihoods, and transparency appear to be the casualties. Coral reefs, fishing grounds, and even designated Marine Protected Areas are now under threat.

Welcome to The Times of Israel's Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what's happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world. Political correspondent Tal Schneider and reporter Sue Surkes join host Jessica Steinberg for today's episode. As Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu lands in the US, Schneider discusses the day ahead for the Israeli leader, ahead of his Monday evening meeting with US President Donald Trump in the White House, and the expectations for the announcement of a permanent ceasefire at that point. Schneider looks at the issues that still need to be resolved, including the hostages, aid distribution in Gaza and who will manage Gaza if Hamas is no longer in power. She also discusses the continuing clashes between Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich and IDF Chief of Staff Eyal Zamir, as Smotrich and his supporters accuse Zamir of being too weak in his handling of Gaza and he has lashed back, with their arguments leaked to the media. Surkes looks at what is happening at Haifa's oil refineries after two Iranian missiles hit the plant, killing three workers and creating additional environmental concerns due to pollution from the plant, with calls to shut it down. She also reports on residents from Gaza envelope communities being told by the government to return home in the next weeks and months, although there are still the sounds of war and explosions in their communities.

The SPIEF has transformed from a place where black caviar is eaten with spoons and escort girls dance into the country's main opposition event this year to a much gloomier event.Putin's Minister of Economy says that the country is on the brink of recession. Gref notes that the economy is worse than expected. Deputy Makarov speaks directly about triubles in the investment climate. And that's not all.For the first time at this level, everything that Vladimir Milov was talking about for weeks is being voiced by Putin's cohorts. Against this background, Putin looks inadequate, who, perhaps, was the only one at the entire forum telling how wonderful everything is.The problems are only growing, and there is simply no way out of them. Money is running out at an incredible speed, there is nowhere to get new resources.The only opportunity looming on the horizon for Russia is the rise in oil prices due to the war between Israel and Iran, but even here, things are not so simple. A short-term rise in prices could lead to an even more serious decline in the global economy - and a sharp drop in oil prices in the long term.This - and much more - is covered in the latest economic report with Vladimir Milov.YouTube channel of Vladimir Milov: @Vladimir_MilovSupport Vlad's work:Patreon: / milov Crypto: http://milov.org/donate.htm /Vladimir Milov on other social media:Telegram: https://t.me/team_milov Facebook: /milov.vladimir Twitter: / v_milov Instaghram: /milov_ruEnglish translation by PrivateerStationOriginal video in Russian: https://youtu.be/Y6uKrm6xgqY--------------------------------------------------Privateer Station on Spreaker: https://www.spreaker.com/show/privateer-station-war-in-ukrainePS on Rumble: https://rumble.com/c/c-1582435PS on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/privateerstationPS on iHeartRadio: https://www.iheart.com/podcast/53-privateer-station-war-in-uk-101486106/PS on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/5iEdf0Jyw1Y3kN04k8rPibPS on ApplePodcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/privateer-station-war-in-ukraine/id1648603352PS on Google Podcasts: https://podcasts.google.com/feed/aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuc3ByZWFrZXIuY29tL3Nob3cvNTY0NzQzOS9lcGlzb2Rlcy9mZWVkPS on PadcastAddict: https://podcastaddict.com/podcast/4079993PS on PodChaser: https://www.podchaser.com/podcasts/privateer-station-war-in-ukrai-4860097PS on Deezer: https://www.deezer.com/us/show/4546617PS on Castbox: https://castbox.fm/channel/id5162050If you like what we do and would like to support our channel, consider becoming a member:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCT3qCbfcPbnph7QS3CPBTMQ/joinBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/privateer-station-war-in-ukraine--5647439/support.

The Memorial Day weekend in the US is often considered the kickoff to the summer driving season, a period of heightened gasoline demand where families take vacations and refiners profit on healthier margins. But how is the European supply and demand balance coping with changes in the global refining picture, as some European refineries shut down while production ramps up in Africa and further afield?

California legislature members discussed the closure of two refineries next year, which has caused some concerns that it could increase the cost for gas or increase amount of fuel imported at ports in Los Angeles in Long Beach. Assemblymember Mike Gipson speaks with NBC4's Conan Nolan. A recent AP-NORC poll found that about 7 in 10 U.S. adults think transgender female athletes should not be allowed to participate in girls and women's sports at the high school, college or professional level. That view was shared by about 9 in 10 Republicans and roughly half of Democrats. The Law Makers, Law Breakers and times that there oughta be a law. Former Charles Manson follower and California's longest-serving female inmate Patricia Krenwinkel was recommended for parole after serving more than five decades for multiple killings in 1969, the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation said.

In this fiery commentary, the host dissects California's escalating energy crisis, framing it as the inevitable outcome of progressive climate policies championed by Governor Gavin Newsom and Democratic lawmakers. With two major oil refineries set to shut down, Californians are bracing for $10-per-gallon gas—just as predicted years ago. As lawmakers scramble to blame regulators and dodge responsibility, the host argues they're merely reaping what they sowed. But the critique goes deeper. The real agenda, the host claims, is unfolding: the deliberate creation of an energy crisis to justify a government takeover of private industry—echoing Marxist strategies from the past. Drawing from historical precedents and the 2022 New York Times article advocating for federal control over food and fuel, the episode paints California as a test case for a broader national push toward state-run energy production. Raw, unapologetic, and urgent, this broadcast serves as a stark warning of what's to come if current policies continue unchecked.

This week on Next Round, we talk with Michael Mische, Associate Professor of the Practice of Management and Organization at the University of Southern California, about his new study showing just how much more Californians will pay at the pump for gas when two of the state's major refineries shut down operations in the coming years. Plus, Tim and Matt discuss the debate over the State and Local Tax Deduction in Congress and legislation to make it easier and cheaper to build housing.

With Valero announcing the pending closure of one of its two remaining California refineries, the state will lose at least 18% of its current refining capacity by the end of 2026.Because California is an “energy island,” meeting demand for California and the parts of Nevada and Arizona that rely on its refineries will require costly imports of volatile fuel by emissions-heavy tanker ships. California Gov. Gavin Newsom has long blamed rising gas prices on refiners' “price gouging,” but even though his own administration has said that it has no found no evidence of such, he called a special legislative session last year to pass new refinery regulations that both Democratic and Republican governors of neighboring states warned would lead to price hikes and supply shortages. Now, with the closure announcement, the warnings from the energy industry and regional leaders are coming to fruition.

California's self-inflicted gas crisis is about to hit wallets HARD with projections of $8.43 per gallon by 2026. Watch as Valero and Phillips 66 refineries flee the state, taking millions in revenue and leaving a gasoline deficit of up to 13 million gallons daily. Why? Because California's virtue-signaling politicians have created a regulatory nightmare while banning gas vehicles by 2035. As usual, Sacramento claims to be 'protecting consumers' while refineries that have operated for decades are saying 'we're done.' Remember when officials blamed 'price gouging' for high gas prices? How's that working out now that companies are shutting down entirely? The most painful part? Those hit hardest will be everyday Californians already struggling to make ends meet.Is this what 'green leadership' looks like—skyrocketing costs and greater dependence on Middle Eastern oil shipped on carbon-belching tankers? Will Gavin Newsom admit his policies are driving this crisis, or find someone else to blame?

Last month, Oil Giant Valero announced it would “restructure, or cease operations” at its Benicia refinery by the end of April 2026, as California transitions away from fossil fuels.
