Ridiculous, unreasonable, confusing and stressful. Those are just some of the words Wellington region residents are using to describe bills from new water entity Tiaki Wai. RNZ has seen charges ranging from $300 to $1000 for the first three months of the financial year. Tiaki Wai says it's the first time people are seeing water costs broken out separately from their rates, but others are questioning how the bills are calculated and if payment arrangements are being fairly organised. Wellington Issues reporter Ellen O'Dwyer has more.

Jim McTague takes a road trip through Owensboro, Kentucky, revealing a "K-shaped" economy where retail business is "dead" for blue-collar residents relying on federal aid. Conversely, Jeffersonville, Ohio, is experiencing a "gold rush" as Amazon and Honda build massive data and battery centers. However, some local residents feel overwhelmed by progress, lacking the imagination or education to capitalize on these high-tech industrial shifts and training opportunities.

SCHEDULE FOR THE JOHN BATCHELOR SHOW, 7-31-20261790 SOUTH HOLLANDJeff Bliss reports a refrigeration fire in Boyle Heights has released a toxic stench and caused an explosion in local rat and insect populations. Residents remain displaced due to overpowering toxic aftereffects. Simultaneously, a massive heat dome and hurricane-driven surf are hitting the Southwest. L.A. County lifeguards performed nearly 1,200 rescues last Saturday, facing dangerous conditions and substance abuse issues on crowded beaches escaping the intense heat. (1)Jeff Bliss notes Governor Gavin Newsom is preparing for a 2028 presidential run, but past controversies are resurfacing. A Vanity Fair article by Ruby Rippey-Tourk, his former mistress and the wife of his then-campaign manager, accuses Newsom of being "careless" and "cruel" during their 2007 affair. His wife, Jennifer Siebel Newsom, is also being criticized for shaming Rippey-Tourk, leading to questions about the Newsoms' commitment to women's advocacy. (2)Richard Epstein examines New York City's proposed "pied-à-terre tax," which targets non-primary residences but threatens middle-class and working homeowners. Epstein argues the tax is unfairly structured, hitting condominiums at five times the rate of houses. The complex valuation process creates a "vicious circle" that could plummet property values. Consequently, wealthy residents are already fleeing, resulting in a $12 billion annual revenue loss for the city. (3)Richard Epstein turns to Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche, under fire for signing a document that allegedly exempts the President from IRS scrutiny regarding past and future taxes. Epstein characterizes this as a "scandalous" misuse of public trust and a misapplication of the law. He argues that if the President used his office for private financial benefit, it constitutes an impeachable offense, while Blanche should face potential disbarment. (4)Jim McTague takes a road trip through Owensboro, Kentucky, revealing a "K-shaped" economy where retail business is "dead" for blue-collar residents relying on federal aid. Conversely, Jeffersonville, Ohio, is experiencing a "gold rush" as Amazon and Honda build massive data and battery centers. However, some local residents feel overwhelmed by progress, lacking the imagination or education to capitalize on these high-tech industrial shifts and training opportunities. (5)Jim McTague reports that in Lancaster County, Republican representatives are introducing legislation that adds red tape and taxes to data centers, contradicting traditional pro-growth principles. While the Democratic-led Lancaster Cityhas embraced a lucrative data center deal, blue-collar "Trump country" boroughs remain fearful of the future. Despite these tensions, the local economy remains "steady" due to a diversified base including agriculture, pharmaceuticals, and senior citizen spending. (6)Peter Huessy explains the foundation of U.S. nuclear strategy is the triad, ensuring launch capabilities from land, sea, and air. Developed after the 1957 Sputnik launch, this framework replaced "massive retaliation" with "flexible response." Huessy explains that this survivable deterrent prevents adversaries from achieving a total victory with a single strike. Despite calls for unilateral disarmament, the triad remains essential for holding at risk what adversaries value most. (7)Peter Huessy warns the U.S. now faces a tri-polar nuclear threat from Russia and China, both of which are modernizing their arsenals "gangbusters." Meanwhile, U.S. systems haven't been updated in 40 years, leaving the deterrent "fragile." Allied nations in Asia, specifically South Korea and Japan, are increasingly questioning the U.S. nuclear umbrella and considering their own deterrents as regional tensions and Chinese missile capabilities grow. (8)Henry Sokolski reports a proposed nuclear agreement with Saudi Arabia is causing alarm due to potential uranium enrichment capabilities. Sokolski warns that nuclear fuel-making brings a nation dangerously close to developing a bomb. Saudi Arabia's refusal to accept advanced "protocol one" inspections is a major "red flag." Furthermore, the deal risks overturning 50 years of global non-proliferation policy, potentially encouraging other nations like Iran to demand equal treatment. (9)Henry Sokolski notes Senator John Kennedy has emerged as a dogged opponent of granting Saudi Arabia enrichment authority, labeling it a "bad idea." The agreement will automatically go into force within 90 legislative days unless Congress passes a veto-proof resolution against it. Kennedy's vocal stance may rally other senators to stop the package, potentially forcing the White House to renegotiate the deal to prevent spreading dangerous nuclear capabilities. (10)Gene Marks reports accountants in California are grappling with AI integration, viewing it as a productivity tool rather than a replacement for human consultation. Meanwhile, the broader economy remains resilient; manufacturing has expanded for five consecutive months despite high gas prices and elevated interest rates. Marks highlights that businesses are "rolling with inflation" and increasing orders for durable goods, indicating high underlying confidence despite stock market volatility. (11)Gene Marks compares public protests against data centers to the 19th-century opposition to railroads. While critics worry about land and water usage, Marks argues these facilities are imperative infrastructure for the information age and the AI revolution. Just as railroads enabled 20th-century American power, data centers are the means for moving information. Ceding this development would allow rivals like China or Russia to dominate the future economy. (12)Veronique de Rugy warns new administration rules replace flexible status for foreign students with fixed four-year periods, targeting the "best educated people on Earth." De Rugy warns this policy dissuades future scientists and innovators from choosing the U.S. Restricting these STEM graduates could cost the economy between $200 billion and $400 billion in lost GDP over the next decade, while potentially causing severe long-term labor shortages. (13)Lorenzo Fiori reports a historic heatwave has pushed the Po River to record lows, devastating Italy's agricultural heartland and water supplies for power stations. The ecological crisis includes an invasion of blue crabs, which are destroying clam populations and disrupting local cuisine. Meteorologists struggle to forecast as traditional weather models fail in the face of climate change. Tourists are encouraged to seek the cooler, historical beauty of Noto, Sicily. (14)Bob Zimmerman reports SpaceX's Starship successfully floated for a week after splashdown, providing invaluable data for rapid reusability. The company further cemented its market dominance with a $1.6 billion Space Force contract, while competitors remain grounded. Additionally, startups are emerging to solve technical hurdles for orbital data centers, such as advanced heat radiation. These advancements indicate that the future of massive data processing may eventually move into permanent space orbit. (15)Bob Zimmerman notes China continues the dangerous practice of dropping uncontrolled rocket debris on its citizens, forcing them to hide in tunnels. In the commercial sector, the startup Catalyst attempted a high-speed satellite rescue mission, demonstrating rapid launch capabilities despite technical failures. Meanwhile, astronomers have identified a rare midsize black hole, a discovery that will likely be expanded upon as the new Rubin telescope begins its sky surveys. (16)Corrections applied, pending your confirmation: Ruby Rippey-Tourk (transcribed as "Ruby Rippy," segment 2), Todd Blanche (transcribed as "Mr. Blanch," segment 4), Rubin telescope (transcribed as "Reuben," segment 16 — the Vera C. Rubin Observatory), and "burrows" → "boroughs" in segment 6. One to flag: this batch has Lorenzo Fiori (segment 14), but an earlier batch had him as "Lorenzo Fiato" — let me know which spelling is correct and I'll log it for good.

Thousands of migrants just flooded into the Spanish territory of Ceuta from Morocco in a scene of absolute chaos, and local officials are begging for a national emergency. The border fences totally collapsed as hordes of people, mainly Moroccans, smashed through gates, swam across with inflatable tubes, and poured into the tiny North African enclave. Civil guard officers described the situation as “absolute chaos,” with thousands crossing and at least three people dying in the attempt. Residents locked themselves inside as shops and restaurants shuttered. Spain is now deploying military units, diving teams, and vessels while the interior minister heads to Ceuta. Morocco used tear gas and water cannons, but the surge still overwhelmed both sides. This isn't new — a similar mass rush hit in 2021 — and the White House is pointing straight at Europe's far-left globalist policies that enabled it. Regular Americans watching this know exactly what open-border experiments look like when the numbers get real. Mass migration pressure, failed European border security, and the consequences of ignoring the warnings are all on full display.

Ascension St. John is seeking federal approval to turn its Nowata hospital into a rural emergency facility, which would mean ending acute inpatient and swing-bed services. The model provides enhanced support to hospitals to maintain local access to emergency and outpatient services.The nonprofit health system said the move would support the long-term viability of local health care. But many residents oppose the change, arguing that inpatient care is essential for Nowata County.Mentioned in this episode:Social Media tags

Seattle's progressive leadership just admitted what residents have known for years — they can't control their own streets. After 90 days of inaction from Mayor Katie Wilson's office, the city council's emergency response is to physically barricade Aurora Avenue North, a five-block stretch that has become ground zero for pimp-on-pimp violence, open prostitution, and drug activity. Residents were so fed up they built their own barricades by hand before the city moved a single inch.Let that sink in. The city isn't arresting pimps. It isn't enforcing laws already on the books. It's closing roads. Councilwoman Debora Suarez called out Mayor Wilson directly for sitting on the power to act sooner — which tells you everything about how broken this leadership structure is. Ninety-seven shootings in the area weren't enough to move the needle. What finally did? Political embarrassment. And the result is a "temporary tool" resolution that solves absolutely nothing.The pimps aren't going anywhere. They'll move one block over while Seattle commissions another study. Meanwhile cities like Oklahoma show what relentless enforcement actually looks like. Sean breaks down the contrast, the victim framing coming out of city hall, and why closing streets is a surrender — not a solution.Subscribe to @reasonablenews and hit the notification bell so you never miss an episode of News for Reasonable People.#Seattle #Crime #WashingtonStateGO PREMIUM WITH REASONABLE+ FOR UNCENSORED ACCESS

The traditional path to homeownership was once straightforward: rent an apartment, save for a down payment, buy a home and settle in. Today, that journey looks very different. Rising costs, shifting priorities and a growing demand for flexibility have created new opportunities for residents who want the space and lifestyle of a home without the immediate commitment of ownership.  Brett Forney, managing broker of Prim Realty and managing partner of Prim Properties, joins Host Carol Morgan on Atlanta Real Estate Forum Radio to discuss how Parkland Companies is creating solutions for those changing needs. From operating successful build-to-rent communities to launching an in-house brokerage, the company’s approach creates a seamless path for residents, whether they choose to rent, buy or transition between the two.  Build-to-Rent Demands a Different Mindset  Build-to-rent communities may resemble traditional neighborhoods, but operating them requires a very different approach than managing apartments or selling homes. With fewer homes, tighter operating margins and individual maintenance needs, every detail matters. Residents also bring different expectations. Many are living in a single-family home for the first time and need guidance on everything from smart home features to seasonal maintenance.  “You’re teaching residents how to live in a home instead of managing them in a unit,” Forney said.  Resident expectations have also reshaped the industry. While homeowners often make upgrades over time, renters expect a polished, move-in-ready experience from day one.  “Renters are far pickier than owners,” Forney said. “When you’re renting, it’s like leasing a luxury car. I want that luxury from day one.”  Meeting Residents Where They Are  Longer career transitions, rising homeownership costs and the desire for maintenance-free living have shifted priorities for many households. Rather than committing to a mortgage and unexpected repair bills, residents value the flexibility of professionally managed communities where maintenance is only a text away.  That shift is reflected across Prim Properties’ portfolio, where average household income exceeds $100,000 per home. These residents aren’t renting because they have no other option. They’re renting because it offers the flexibility and convenience they want today.  Communities like Sugarloaf Landing and the newly opening Sugarloaf Crest in Lawrenceville further support that lifestyle. The neighboring communities share amenities while offering walkability to schools, grocery stores and everyday conveniences, creating a neighborhood experience that’s increasingly difficult to find.  Creating a Seamless Path to Homeownership  As Prim Properties built relationships with residents across its communities, a common question emerged: What happens when renters are ready to buy? Many residents wanted to stay connected to the Parkland Communities experience but needed guidance on the next step. That opportunity led to the launch of Prim Realty, creating a direct path from renting to homeownership.  “Whether our residents want to rent from us forever or rent for a short time until they purchase, whichever direction their American dream goes, we’re going to be there to help their dreams become a reality,” Forney said.  Prim Realty is also introducing programs designed to make homeownership more attainable, including assistance with closing costs and down payments, along with financing partnerships that may offer qualified buyers options such as 100% financing, no private mortgage insurance and competitive interest rates.  The brokerage’s first communities include Parkside at Grove Landing in Warner Robins, along with upcoming communities in Snellville and Stonecrest, expanding Parkland Communities’ growing portfolio of attainable for-sale housing across Georgia.  Growing With Purpose  As Prim Properties and Prim Realty continue expanding, growth remains rooted in a simple philosophy: serve residents and communities with excellence. Over the next two years, Parkland Communities expects more than 3,000 homes to be occupied or under construction while continuing to grow its property management, brokerage and construction teams. Yet success isn’t measured solely by the number of homes delivered.  “I want people, when they think of Parkland and Prim, to know that we’re different,” Forney said. “We’re not just looking for the fast dollar, but we are the helpers.”  That commitment shapes everything from customer service to community partnerships, reinforcing a mission to provide quality housing while helping more families achieve their version of the American dream.  To learn more about Prim Properties, Prim Realty and Parkland Communities, listen to the full episode of Atlanta Real Estate Forum Radio or visit primprop.com and parklandco.com.  About Prim Properties & Prim Realty  Prim Properties specializes in the management of build-to-rent communities, delivering customized leasing, operations and resident services designed specifically for the BTR market.

Anthony Fauci testifies under oath before the Senate Homeland Security Committee on Wednesday, after more than 1,100 pages of his private diary have been make public. They are raising questions about how he responded to secret intelligence and whether his private assessments matched what he told the American people. Fauci has not publicly responded to the latest disclosures.In honor of the late Senator Lidnsey Graham, Senators advance a Russia and Iran sanctions bill that was championed by him. The bill aims to cut off Russia's profit from oil and gas sales and to restrict funding for Iran.

Residents are often told to get involved at City Hall, but first they have to figure out where to go, who has authority, and which committee will actually hear them. Jacob Hyman learned that firsthand when his attempt to advocate for multimodal transportation turned into a frustrating tour of local government. As a civil engineer and leader of Strong Towns Steubenville, he helped build a power map showing the officials, boards, departments, and relationships behind city decisions, giving residents a clearer route into a system that had been difficult even to describe. Hyman will also be a speaker at the Civic Leader Summit in Pensacola, Florida, from October 6–8, where he'll lead a session on building power maps for local communities, and early-bird tickets are available now.

Part 3: Creating the Conditions for Disclosure What makes disability disclosure feel safe, supported, and meaningful in healthcare? In the final episode of the Disclosureseries, we move beyond the barriers to examine the conditions that allow disclosure to lead to access, trust, and belonging. Through the perspectives of medical students, physician assistant students, fellows, physicians, and educators, this episode explores how institutional systems, responsive accommodations, inclusive leadership, and everyday acts of advocacy shape disclosure experiences across medical training and practice. Contributors reflect on the importance of flexible accommodation processes, proactive communication, faculty and peer support, and the role of community in fostering psychological safety. Together, these stories demonstrate that while policies create opportunities for access, people create the conditions for trust—and that building environments where disabled learners and clinicians can thrive ultimately strengthens healthcare for everyone.
