    In 1997, 17-year-old Kristen finished her first year of college at North Carolina State University, but after classes ended, she had no plans to enjoy a lazy summer. Instead, she devised a plan to take another class across the country in California… A few short months to enjoy the Golden State and gain some independence as she entered adulthood.  She was smart, ambitious and had a solid plan.  But just 23 days after she landed in California, she disappeared.   Kristen Modafferi was 18 years old when she was last seen at the Crocker Galleria Mall in San Francisco, California, on June 23, 1997. She is white with brown hair and brown eyes. At the time of her disappearance, she was 5'6” and weighed approximately 140 lbs. She may have been carrying a green Jansport brand backpack with a black mesh pocket on the front. If you have any information, please call the Oakland PD at 510-238-3775.

    Munaf Manji and Dave Essler talk NBA betting for Thursday and much more. The NBA resumes Thursday following the All Star break with several compelling matchups, while early MLB futures are beginning to take shape as analysts look ahead to the 2026 season. In Detroit's visit to Madison Square Garden, the Knicks are listed as four and a half point favorites against a Pistons team missing Jalen Duren and Isaiah Stewart due to suspensions stemming from a recent altercation. New York enters largely healthy, with only minor injury concerns, and the absence of Detroit's primary interior defenders shifts attention to Karl Anthony Towns. Towns has historically produced strong numbers against the Pistons and is positioned for a significant role, particularly on the glass and as a scorer. Detroit's recent defensive identity and slower pace suggest caution on the full game total, though a Pistons team total under and Towns points and rebounds over were highlighted as attractive angles. In San Antonio, the Spurs are favored by seven and a half over Phoenix, despite early market indicators showing notable support for the Suns. Phoenix has been one of the league's best teams against the number this season and has exceeded preseason expectations, largely due to improved defense. While San Antonio had been on an extended under run before clearing five straight prior to the break, the reset following All Star weekend raises the possibility of a slower tempo. The under, including a potential first half under, stands out more than the side, with Phoenix's ability to compete on the road keeping the spread within reach. The marquee matchup features Boston traveling to Golden State with the Celtics laying five and a half. The total has dropped sharply, reflecting injury concerns for the Warriors, including Steph Curry's absence pending further evaluation. Boston's recent offensive volume, combined with its defensive consistency, creates intrigue around the Celtics team total over, particularly given Golden State's recent defensive struggles. While revenge narratives from past postseason meetings linger, the primary focus rests on market movement and value relative to the opening numbers. Beyond the NBA slate, attention has shifted to MLB win totals, beginning with teams projected near the bottom of the standings. The Colorado Rockies enter with a win total of 53 and a half after a historically poor 43 and 119 season that featured a minus 424 run differential. Modest pitching additions provide some optimism for incremental improvement, though concerns remain about scoring consistency and bullpen reliability. The debate centers on whether even a ten game improvement is realistic within a competitive division, with opinions split between a slight over based on regression toward prior performance and skepticism rooted in roster limitations. The Washington Nationals, posted at 65 and a half wins, present a similar evaluation challenge. After finishing 66 and 96 with a minus 212 run differential, Washington continues a youth movement highlighted by promising position players but hampered by pitching uncertainty and bullpen depth issues. Competing in a division with multiple contenders complicates the path to meaningful gains, and an early season schedule featuring several strong opponents could suppress initial results. While offensive upside exists, inconsistency and pitching volatility make the under the more cautious position entering the season. As both leagues move forward, disciplined market evaluation and situational awareness remain central themes for bettors navigating the transition from midseason NBA adjustments to long term MLB futures.

    California is not only the largest agricultural state, but it's also the most diverse, with several hundred crops grown. There may be a new major crop in the Golden State – agave.Stuart Woolf heads a large family farm in Fresno County, and has seen excellent agronomic success growing 450 acres of agave. The crop uses a small fraction of the water when compared to many other crops, and it has intriguing market potential for spirits and as a sweetener. This crop may turn into an excellent option especially for farmers in the San Joaquin Valley, who routinely face limited water supplies. Woolf has extensively studied agave production in Mexico and is a licensed nurseryman that has sold tens of thousands of plants to other California growers. U.C. Davis has several years of ongoing research on agave viability, and industry influencers are looking into the feasibility of this fledgling crop being distilled into a high-quality spirit.

    Jamie Johansson Says 2026 Is a Turning Point for Northern California and Agriculture

    The February 16 edition of the AgNet News Hour kicked off a week of rain, World Ag Expo momentum, and a major political conversation as hosts Nick Papagni and Josh McGill sat down with Jamie Johansson, candidate for California's District 3 Assembly seat. Johansson, a first-generation farmer and former President of the California Farm Bureau, made it clear that 2026 could be a defining year for agriculture, energy, and water policy in the Golden State. Johansson farms olives and citrus in Butte County and has spent years advocating for growers in Sacramento and Washington, D.C. Now, with current Assemblymember James Gallagher terming out, Johansson says the North State needs someone who can “hit the ground running” on day one. His district spans six counties stretching from Yuba-Sutter to the Oregon border, covering vast agricultural and forested lands that often feel overlooked in a legislature dominated by urban representation. A central theme of the interview was predictability — something Johansson believes California has lost. Farmers face rising regulatory costs, soaring energy prices, and water uncertainty that make it nearly impossible to plan for the next season. Electricity rates hovering around 40 cents per kilowatt-hour, compared to a national average closer to 17 cents, hit both farms and families hard. “There has to be accountability,” Johansson said, pointing to the state's multi-billion-dollar deficit and a pattern of promises made to agriculture that go unfunded. Water policy also took center stage. Johansson discussed the importance of moving forward with long-delayed projects like Sites Reservoir and emphasized the need to treat hydropower as clean energy again. He argued that removing dams under the current regulatory climate only weakens both rural communities and the state's energy reliability. Wildfire management, forest thinning, and predator issues such as wolves were also part of the conversation. Johansson said Northern California communities have lived with evacuation warnings and catastrophic fires for years, and regulatory barriers must be addressed to allow proactive forest management instead of reactive disaster response. Beyond policy, Johansson spoke personally about generational farming. As a first-generation farmer raising three children, he understands the fear that the next generation may not be able to afford to live — let alone farm — in California. He urged agricultural voters to get involved, whether through campaigns, local boards, or simply showing up at the ballot box. Papagni and McGill emphasized that agriculture needs strong, experienced voices in Sacramento. Johansson's background with Farm Bureau and local government positions him to advocate effectively in a legislature often disconnected from rural realities. As Johansson put it, California still has everything it needs — soil, water, forests, and hardworking families. The question is whether leadership will restore accountability and abundance before more farms disappear.

    California's water system was built for a wetter century—and now the state is racing to turn wastewater into a reliable part of its supply portfolio. In this episode, Joaquin Esquivel, chair of the California State Water Resources Control Board, breaks down where water reuse fits in California's long-term strategy, and what it will take to scale it safely and affordably. The conversation spans the state's role as both regulator and funder, including the adoption of direct potable reuse regulations, the safeguards designed to protect public health, and the need for “regulatory certainty” that helps projects move from concept to construction. Esquivel also shares the numbers behind California's current reuse footprint—roughly 750,000 to 800,000 acre-feet annually—and the state's goals to expand that supply in the coming decades while balancing discharges needed for instream flows. The episode tackles the “yuck factor” head-on, explaining why monitoring, testing, and transparent communication are essential to maintaining trust as systems move toward direct connections. And it spotlights a looming constraint few people see coming: a major wave of retirements that could reshape the water workforce just as advanced treatment becomes the new normal.This episode is part of The Golden State of Reuse, a series exploring the past, present, and future of water recycling across California.The series is a collaboration with WateReuse California and sponsored by CDM Smith.The series is also supported by the Sacramento Area Sewer District, Black & Veatch, and Monterey One Water.waterloop is a nonprofit news outlet exploring solutions for water sustainability.

    Munaf Manji talks betting for Tuesday. Tuesday's edition of Cash That Ticket on RJ Bell's Dream Preview, hosted by Munaf Manji, centered on a busy NBA slate and a night that blended betting success, on court controversy, and evolving league storylines. Coming off a 2 0 night on best bets, Manji opened by noting momentum built from Nikola Jokic clearing a rebounds and assists prop and a college basketball win from Uncle Dave, setting the tone for another analysis heavy episode focused primarily on professional hoops. The biggest headline from Monday night came in Charlotte, where tensions between the Pistons and Hornets escalated into a chaotic midgame altercation that evoked memories of past NBA flashpoints. A hard foul and ensuing confrontation involving Jalen Duren, Miles Bridges, and Isaiah Stewart spilled across the floor before officials and teammates intervened. While the incident stopped short of anything more severe, suspensions were still pending, and the league was expected to review the situation closely. Detroit ultimately snapped Charlotte's nine game winning streak with a 110 104 victory, a result that also cashed the under Manji had leaned toward pregame. Beyond the fight, Manji highlighted several league wide trends impacting both teams and bettors. Utah's handling of a close game against Miami drew scrutiny after key starters sat for the entire fourth quarter despite being within reach, a clear signal of draft positioning priorities. The situation reinforced a growing angle for bettors, especially with live markets, when evaluating teams openly embracing late season losses. Elsewhere, Golden State edged Memphis by one point, Cleveland rallied late to beat Denver, and Oklahoma City handled the Lakers without Shai Gilgeous Alexander, prompting candid postgame comments from LeBron James about Los Angeles falling short of championship caliber. That admission fueled broader speculation about the Lakers' direction and the possibility that this season could mark the end of James' tenure in Los Angeles, with roster construction and long term planning increasingly shifting toward Luka Doncic. Looking ahead, Manji broke down a short Tuesday card, emphasizing defense, pace, and situational spots. He backed the Knicks at home against Indiana, citing elite recent defensive form and strong Madison Square Garden performance, leaned under in Clippers Rockets due to Houston's slow tempo and defensive identity, supported Phoenix laying points versus a depleted Dallas squad, and ultimately locked in San Antonio against the Lakers as his best bet. With depth, defensive consistency, and favorable scheduling on their side, the Spurs were positioned as the most reliable play of the night. Learn more about your ad choices.
