Roy L Hales/ Cortes Currents - The Cortes Community Foundation has once again shown how invaluable resource it is to the community. Regional Director Mark Vonesch has a budget of about $25,000 a year for Grants-in-Aid. When the time to disburse the funds arrives, he normally receives requests for far more money than is available. This year was no exception; however, thanks to the Cortes Island Community Foundation, nearly all these requests will be met. As Director Vonesch explained at the January 28 Board Meeting: "Similar to previous years, we received a lot more applications than we had funding for. I had roughly $25,000 to spend and we had over $50,000 in applications. I worked with the Cortes Island Community Foundation to put together a community jury of members who were not on non-profit boards or staff, and were not connected to those non-profits in a way that would create a conflict of interest. They held a series of meetings and went through the applications." "I'm delighted to say that the Cortes Island Community Foundation privately raised an extra $25,000 for these applications this year. So, almost all of the funding requests will be met—assuming these are passed by the board today—both through the SRD Grant-in-Aid program and through the Cortes Island Community Foundation. I'm happy to take any questions."

The Chief of the South African Navy, Vice Admiral Monde Lobese recently came under fire following his criticism of National Treasury's decision to reduce funding for the country's naval state security operations. Speaking to members of the navy, Lobese made a frank and candid assessment of the South African Navy and an admission that borders are porous due to underfunding. He added that while South Africans ensure that their doors and gates are locked, in order to keep intruders out, South Africa's shorelines have become a haven from criminals trafficking in humans and drugs. Lobese's assessment enlisted heavy criticism from the Defence department with some observers calling the condemnation unfair. For a look at what the actual budget is for the Navy and what is informing budget cuts , Jon Gericke spoke to Defence Analyst and Associate Editor at The Daily Friend, Ricardo Teixeira

More propane production. More exports. More inventories. The U.S. propane market, already oversupplied, is becoming even more so, putting additional downward pressure on prices. At the same time, surging demand from LNG exports and gas-fired power generation is pushing natural gas prices higher. Electricity prices are climbing too, further tilting the scales in propane's favor. The big question is, will these shifting fuel-price relationships move the needle on retail propane demand.

PREVIEW: Social Security Reform: Capping Benefits for the Wealthiest Guest: Veronique De Rugy Veronique De Rugy discusses the looming Social Security deadline set for 2033, when the program faces a funding shortfall, and potential campaign responses during the 2028 election cycle. De Rugy proposes a reform method she believes can be easily sold to the American people without raising taxes or causing inflation. Her specific proposal invites all Americans, from wealthy to poor, to share in solving the problem by capping benefits for those with the most money and the least need for the program. By capping benefits for the wealthiest seniors, the biggest beneficiaries would see the largest reductions, while those who truly need the program would see no cuts. She notes that today's seniors are generally doing much better financially than when the program was originally created. 1936

What do supply numbers tell us about LA County's housing crisis, and how can research guide next steps? Jorge De la Roca (USC Price) joins Richard K. Green (USC Lusk Center for Real Estate) to discuss the findings of the 2025 State of Los Angeles County Housing (SOLACHAN) Report At the center of their conversation is the modern city dilemma: while cities drive economic vitality, they also create steep costs of living. In LA County, permitting delays, demographic shifts, and a mismatch between incomes and supply add up to a housing market that's falling short. Highlights include: Why building a multifamily project in LA takes nearly twice as long as the national average. Accessory dwelling units (ADUs) are driving new supply, but may not translate to housing. The widening income split between renters. Demographic shifts show fewer families and declining Black residents in LA. Why the favored model of filtering can't take hold at current levels of housing production.   Explore the SOLACHAN Report   More Lusk Perspectives

Paul Wright “We're covering 28 square miles with the same cost it takes to dig one mile of fiber—and we're doing it with gigabit speeds.” — Paul Wright, Chief Revenue Officer, CBNG In a timely conversation on Technology Reseller News, Publisher Doug Green interviews Paul Wright, Chief Revenue Officer of Cambridge Broadband Networks Group (CBNG), to examine a growing concern: fiber broadband rollouts in the U.S. are failing to meet demand, especially in rural and hard-to-reach communities. Wright proposes a viable, scalable alternative—Fixed Wireless Access (FWA)—driven by 5G and CBNG's next-generation point-to-multipoint microwave radios. CBNG, with a legacy of delivering carrier-grade radio equipment since 2000 and over 350,000 radios shipped globally, is launching a new 5G NR platform that delivers up to 5 Gbps. Wright illustrates how the economics of FWA are revolutionizing broadband planning: for the same cost of trenching one mile of fiber (about $40,000), CBNG's solution can cover 28 square miles with high-speed wireless internet. Wright explains how FWA uses licensed spectrum and advanced 5G technologies—like beamforming and standalone operation—making it ideal for quick deployments. With BEAD funding recently liberalized to allow alternatives to fiber, CBNG's timing is critical. “Now it's about cost and speed of delivery,” Wright notes, “and FWA is winning on both counts.” The setup is simple: a small antenna on a home or business connects to a hub station, and installation takes under an hour. Wright envisions municipalities, entrepreneurs, and WISPs driving connectivity forward without waiting on major carriers. While fiber has its place—especially in greenfield builds—Wright emphasizes that FWA is no longer just a stopgap. “It's a practical long-term solution,” he says, “especially when fiber may never come.” CBNG's 5G NR solution operates in the 39 GHz band, with upcoming support for 24–30 GHz. It's designed for ease of use and fast ROI, especially for those holding licensed spectrum. Learn more: https://www.cbng.co.uk

Critical minerals are required for the manufacturing of electronics, aerospace equipment, medical devices, and renewable energy technologies, making them essential for a country's economic and national security. These materials have been at the center of China's domestic and foreign policy for many decades, and China's ability to integrate internal industrial policies with foreign trade and investment policies has allowed them to gain dominance in the market. Meanwhile, the US has lagged behind China in terms of both access to and processing technology of critical minerals. The country has been heavily dependent on China for its critical minerals and struggles to find an alternative supplier.China's announcement to impose export restrictions on seven rare earth elements on April 4th has opened many conversations surrounding critical minerals, especially regarding the US and its supply chain vulnerabilities. What has China done to achieve their global dominance in the critical minerals sector, and what can the US do to address the overdependence issue they are facing today? To answer these questions and more, host Bonnie Glaser is joined by Gracelin Baskaran, the director of the Critical Minerals Security Program at the Center for Strategic and International Studies. She is a mining economist whose area of expertise is critical minerals and trade. Timestamps[00:00] Start[02:13] US Dependencies on Rare Earths and Critical Minerals[03:51] Sourcing from Latin America, Africa, and Asia[06:28] Environmental Harm from Mining and Processing[08:11] Deliberate Suppression of the Price of Rare Earths in the Market[11:06] Chinese Exports Restrictions on Seven Rare Earth Elements[14:08] US Administrations' Approaches to Critical Minerals Vulnerability[20:02] 2010 Fishing Boat Accident and Japan's Response [24:00] What might China do moving forward? [27:42] Timeframe for the US to Catch Up to China

On Monday, Portland Mayor Keith Wilson unveiled a budget for the city as it faces a massive budget shortfall. That deficit is $65 million if you don’t include the cost of the mayor’s ambitious plan to end unsheltered homelessness, or the city's new obligations to pay for homeless shelters that Multnomah County previously paid for. Mayor Wilson’s budget calls for staff layoffs and cuts to some programs and services, while also expanding staffing for homeless services outreach, Portland Street Response and Portland Fire & Rescue. In February, City Administrator Michael Jordan outlined the scope of the deficit in the city’s general fund that is due to a range of factors, from steep declines in property and business tax revenues to mounting overtime and healthcare costs.  The 12-member city council has until June to approve a budget and has held budget listening sessions where it’s heard from constituents concerned about cuts to city programs and services. Joining us to share details about Mayor Wilson’s proposed budget is OPB’s Portland city government reporter Alex Zielinski.

Congressman Rudy Yakym talks about the Veterans Administration's (VA) misrepresentation of a $3 billion shortfall to Congress, which was later found to be false due to poor accounting practices. Yakym criticizes the Biden administration for using veterans as political pawns and highlights his efforts to combat improper government payments, which totaled over $2.8 trillion in the last two decades. He also addresses the issue of unemployment fraud, where $135 billion was fraudulently claimed during the pandemic, with only $5 billion recovered. Yakym introduces legislation to extend the statute of limitations for prosecuting fraudsters and to protect Jewish students and faculty from discrimination and ties to terrorist groups. Additional interviews with Congressman Eric Burlison, who sheds light on the potential end of taxpayer-funded media, citing the abundance of information sources and the U.S.'s $37 trillion debt, and The Wellness Company's Dr. Peter McCullough, who shares new scientific research indicating that repeated COVID-19 vaccinations may harm individuals by causing the body to produce harmful antibodies, leading to recurring infections.
