We have another major winter storm on the way in California, but it's becoming impossible to look past the fact that the state is wasting the opportunity to store the water in reservoirs or in groundwater.
The New York Times, no less, has noticed, with an article titled "Parched California Misses a Chance to Store More Rain Underground." The Times notes, in part: "Torrential rains could have helped to replenish depleted aquifers, but some say state bureaucracy, designed to distribute water fairly, has stood in the way."

The problem precedes Newsom, but he hasn't done much to fix it.
Now he's building a national profile, largely based on opposition to Republican states on social issues. But he has no record of success in his own state. And the rest of the country is not likely to enjoy the prospect of shortages -- of electricity, and water -- that Newsom's "green" model threatens to export to the nation as a whole.
Today's episode is devoted to the second anniversary of the October 7 terror attacks. It was produced before the announcement of a ceasefire deal, yet remains current & relevant.
Please listen, and #bringthemhome.

This week's portion is a beautiful poem, containing the Covenant between God and the people of Israel. But given the breaking news that Hamas may actually have agreed to release all of the Israeli hostages, I will devote my remarks to that.
One hopes it is true; if so, it makes this week's additional reading, from II Samuel 22, even more relevant: David's song of praise to the Lord for delivering him from the hand of his enemies.
"18 He rescued me from my powerful enemy,
from my foes, who were too strong for me.
19 They confronted me in the day of my disaster,
but the Lord was my support."
So much to focus on this week -- and much breaking news. A peace deal in the Middle East, perhaps? Eric Adams dropping out of the mayor's race? And a looming shutdown as Democrats push their demands beyond absurdity.
