Empowered by a Republican majority in both chambers, though slim, Americans should expect emphasis on sweeping policy and regulatory changes to come during this next term. Although we cannot predict exactly what the next year will look like, let alone the next four years, we can make preliminary assumptions based on what President-elect Trump’s first term looked like, promises he made on the campaign trail, and inside knowledge we hear through our extensive network on Capitol Hill. The people President-elect Trump chooses for his Cabinet who are confirmed or who may otherwise be appointed, as well as those who will have leadership positions in Congress will have a major impact on how these policy issues play out. Below are our initial insights on key issues relevant to a broad spectrum of organizations, companies, and interests. This is an evolving story, no doubt with a multitude of twists and turns. We will be providing regular updates to these links in our Weekly Congressional Updates as developments occur. Budget and Tax The election could immediately impact the U.S. budget for fiscal year (“FY”) 2025. Although the deadline for FY25 appropriations bills was the end of September, Congress is operating under a continuing resolution (“CR”) until December 20, keeping funding at FY24 levels without implementing FY25 earmarks. House Republicans are considering a short-term CR extending funding through March 2025, allowing President-elect Trump to influence FY25 funding. If extended until next year, expect domestic budget cuts and increased border and defense spending. There is also talk on Capitol Hill about passing a CR that extends through the end of FY25. Some appropriators prefer wrapping up spending before year-end with an Omnibus Appropriations package to avoid an early funding fight for the Trump Administration with respect to “left over” FY25 funding. For FY26, expect significant domestic spending cuts, with Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy leading an advisory cost-cutting mission to streamline bureaucracy and dramatically reduce spending, proposing reductions in the size of the federal workforce and in the dollar volume of federal contracts. Push to Renew TCJA: The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (“TCJA”), the tax bill signed into law during Donald Trump’s first term, has many provisions set to expire in late 2025. Key features of the TCJA include a reduction in tax rates for individuals, a doubling of the standard deduction, more generous estate and gift tax exemptions, and a significant cut in the corporate tax rate. One of the top priorities of the incoming Administration is to extend the expiring provisions and make the tax cuts permanent. President-elect Trump has proposed getting rid of one of the more contentious provisions set to expire in TCJA, the tight limitation on deductions for state and local taxes, also known as SALT. Several new tax provisions may be added in the next tax bill which were promoted by President-elect Trump during the campaign. This could include tax exempt tips, exempting Social Security from income taxes, exempting overtime pay, and creating a deduction for Auto Loan interest. In 2017, the TCJA reduced the corporate tax rate from 35 percent to 21 percent, and Mr. Trump has proposed reducing that rate to as low as 15 percent. Any significant changes will have to go through Congress. Cuts to Energy Tax Credits: Rollbacks may also occur regarding personal and corporate renewable energy and conservation tax credits as well as carbon credits passed during the Biden Administration in the Inflation Reduction Act. For example, electric vehicle tax credits could be repealed or modified. We expect to see an effort early next year to use the “Budget Reconciliation” procedure in Congress to implement the tax and budget priorities of the incoming Administration. The Reconciliation process allows for tax and budget legislation to pass via a majority vote (not requiring the usual 60 votes in the Senate) but provisions must strictly adhere to the Rules of the House and Senate that all provisions in the bill relate directly to spending or revenue. Passing a Reconciliation bill could be tough with the Republican margin as narrow as it is in the House. New Tariffs Abroad: President-elect Trump is a strong proponent of imposing tariffs. During his campaign he proposed a 10 to15 percent tariff on all U.S. imports and up to 60 percent tariff on Chinese products. As opposed to tax policy, which largely relies on congressional approval, tariffs can often be directly implemented by executive order. Mr. Trump’s reliance on import tariffs to offset the cost of tax cuts comes with potential major downsides. Although the extent to which these across-the-board tariffs may be implemented is not yet clear, Trump’s proposed tariffs and anticipated retaliation from trading partners could offset, to a greater or lesser degree, the benefits of his tax plan and negatively impact economic growth in the United States. Defense and Small Business Contracting Increased Budget Expected: President-elect Trump has historically advocated for increased defense budgets, focusing on missile defense, cyber warfare, and space operations, with potential moves like relocating Space Command to Huntsville, AL. Alongside this, there may be efforts to reduce inefficiencies and unnecessary expenditures within the Department of Defense, appealing to fiscal conservatives. Strategically, the United States is expected to emphasize countering China and Russia with investments in advanced military technologies, while maintaining strong support for Israel and a presence in the Middle East. Military modernization will likely prioritize artificial intelligence (“AI”), autonomous systems, hypersonic weapons, and nuclear deterrence. Additionally, there may be cultural and structural changes within the military, such as reducing high-ranking officers and shifting to merit-based promotions, and potentially adjusting force deployments to focus more on domestic priorities. “America First” Foreign Policy and Increased Border Security: When it comes to foreign policy, we anticipate President-elect Trump to take a more isolationist or domestic-focused military strategy. There will also be a major emphasis on strengthening national security by securing the border. Mr. Trump on the campaign trail pledged to secure the U.S.-Mexico border by finishing construction of a wall and by conducting comprehensive deportations of undocumented migrants, concentrating initially on those with criminal records, with the help of local law enforcement agents or the National Guard. Small Business Contracting Expansion of Tax Cuts: The President-elect has promised to make the TCJA permanent, which included a deduction of up to 20 percent for small businesses’ income. He also proposed during his campaign to lower the corporate tax rate to 15 percent from 21 percent for businesses manufacturing domestically. “Buy America” Trend to Continue: Small businesses should be prepared for a continuation of regulatory actions that require products to be wholly produced and manufactured in the United States. One of President-elect Trump’s strongest campaign messages was a promise to impose tariffs on imported goods, including up to a 60 percent tariff on Chinese imports. Small businesses that rely on imported products or materials will have to take on the cost of the tariff by paying it themselves or raising costs for consumers. Cut-Back on Regulations : Mr. Trump has historically supported cutting back regulations for small businesses and has made it clear this will be a big theme for his administration in his next term. He has called for reversing regulations set by the Biden Administration and cutting through the “red tape.” Energy and Transportation Environmental Regulations and the EPA: The second Trump Administration’s approach to environmental regulation might look somewhat similar to the first Trump Administration. It has been reported that the new Administration will possibly re-examine a variety of regulations. Some that may merit a re-examination are the California Waivers, the Environmental Protection Agency’s (“EPA”) Clean Power Plan, and vehicle emissions standard – colloquially known as the ‘tailpipe rules.’ Additionally, the new administration may also review the EPA’s budget and size of its workforce. Former Congressman Lee Zeldin has been nominated to be the EPA Administrator. Permitting reform and National Environmental Policy Act (“NEPA”) process streamlining are also top priorities. Energy Department Realigned with Fossil Fuel Production: The Administration will potentially emphasize all aspects of fossil fuel production. Some have suggested it will scale back its focus on renewable energy, but this has not been confirmed. Chris Wright, CEO of Liberty Energy, has been named as the presumptive nominee to lead the Department of Energy. On the campaign trail, President-elect Trump suggested the United States may withdraw from the Paris Climate Agreement and take a closer look at the climate change and energy provisions within the Inflation Reduction Act that he argues inhibits U.S. energy independence. It has been reported that the new Administration may also target some of the tax credits in the Inflation Reduction Act such as hydrogen (and certain electric vehicle tax credits). Impacts on Transportation Infrastructure Projects: Former Congressman Sean Duffy has been named to serve as the Secretary of Transportation. Duffy’s statements and positions on transportation largely align with his conservative views on infrastructure, government spending, and investment in rural America. Duffy’s statements have emphasized reducing bureaucratic hurdles, focusing on rural infrastructure needs, and ensuring that transportation investments are both efficient and locally driven. His broader transportation-related positions fit within his general philosophy of promoting economic growth through limited government intervention. Under a Trump Administration and a U.S. Department of Transportation (“DOT”) Secretary favoring less federal intervention, discretionary grants from the DOT and the eligibility for them may change in scope, preference, and funding. Regarding claw-backs, much of the money in the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (“IIJA”) flows by formulaic funds tied to statutorily designated user fees from gas tax receipts into the Highway Trust Fund; these formula funds would continue to flow directly to States, transit agencies, and airports. There is also the use of Advanced Appropriations in the IIJA, which would flow automatically to federal agencies for competitive federal grants. If a Trump Administration desires to halt or even claw back these funds, Congress would have to enact legislation needing 60 votes in the Senate or use the budget reconciliation process. A Trump Administration can also slow the rollout of federal competitive grants to recipients at its discretion. For transportation infrastructure projects, the Trump administration may modify the terms of the way States and organizations receive funding. The Trump infrastructure plan in his first administration sought to offset its costs by shifting some of the cost burden to States to help pay for major infrastructure projects. Natural Resources and Native American Issues Energy Priorities: One of President-elect Trump’s key talking points during the campaign was vowing to boost domestic energy production, with oil and natural gas at the forefront of this effort. He may also boost nuclear and hydropower. It is expected by some that Mr. Trump may seek to reduce federal support for solar and wind energy projects. However, because a number of these projects are in states or districts with Republican elected officials, we expect there to be continuing support for solar and wind energy, albeit with less emphasis than during the Biden Administration. Expanding domestic pipelines and increased coal production will be supported under his administration, and he has indicated that he will quickly reverse President Biden’s pause on liquified natural gas exports (“LNG”). Permitting Reform: It is also likely that Trump will support reforming the NEPA’s permitting process to streamline energy projects and limit the scope of, and timeline for, environmental review. This has been a major agenda item in the recent past for outgoing Senate Energy Committee Chair Joe Manchin (I-W.V.), but Congress has been unable to pass a bill after years of efforts to reach a deal. However, many observers in Washington have noted that given the election results, the prospects for meaningful permit reform and environmental review streamlining have improved significantly. Tribal Sovereignty: During President-elect Trump’s campaign, he made a major promise to the Lumbee Tribe of North Carolina during a rally, vowing to grant them federal recognition if he's reelected in November. During Mr. Trump’s first term, he passed three bills aiming to “support tribal sovereignty and native culture”. These bills included compensation to the Spokane Tribe for the loss of their lands in the mid-1900s, reauthorization of funding for Native language programs, and federal recognition of the Little Shell Tribe of Chippewa Indians in Montana. Trump did not lay out many specific plans for Native lands during his campaign, but we are hearing that it can be expected he will continue to support tribal self-determination, particularly with respect to economic development priorities for Native Americans, Tribes, Native Organizations, and Native Lands. Education and Health: The new Trump Administration will likely continue to make cuts to many of the budget items that it did when Mr. Trump was originally in office. The administration will emphasize alternative private health providers. The Trump Administration is also likely to continue its support of school choice and reduced federal oversight of schools.

2024 not a very good year for IPOs in PH

UPDATE -- nCino to Participate in Upcoming Investor ConferencesArsenal scored five goals away from home in the Champions League for the first time since 2008 as they thumped Sporting CP. The Gunners ran out 5-1 winners in Portugal after being three goals to the good by half-time thanks to Gabriel Martinelli, Kai Havertz and Gabriel. Goncalo Inacio pulled one back for Sporting shortly after the break, but a penalty from Bukayo Saka and a late goal from Leandro Trossard secured a comfortable win. The victory puts Arsenal up to seventh in the Champions League standings and this was also their first away win in the competition since October last year. Here is how Simon Collings rated the Arsenal players... David Raya 7 Had a quiet first half before making a good save to deny Geovany Quenda. Made another smart stop after the break to keep out Morten Hjulmand’s effort. Jurrien Timber 9 Found Martinelli for the opening goal with a brilliant ball into the box. Got forward whenever he could and combined well with Saka. One of his best games for Arsenal. William Saliba 8 Typically dominant and only once did Viktor Gyokeres get the better of him. The striker spun him in the 87th minute and struck the post. Gabriel 8 Powered home a header from a corner to score Arsenal’s third, before mimicking Gyokeres’ celebration. Like Saliba, did well at keeping the Swede quiet. Riccardo Calafiori 6 Perhaps the only player to have a tricky night. Booked in the first half and also fell when trying to stop Inacio scoring from a corner. Martin Odegaard 9 | Star player Yet another majestic performance from the Norwegian, who has transformed Arsenal’s attack since returning from injury. Won the penalty for Arsenal’s fourth goal. Thomas Partey 8 Played a delightful pass for Arsenal’s second goal, which allowed Saka to pick out Havertz. In the best form of his Arsenal career. Declan Rice 7 Back in the team after being an unused substitute against Nottingham Forest. It was his corner that Gabriel headed home for Arsenal’s third goal of the night. Bukayo Saka 9 Made a great run and then slid the ball across to Havertz for Arsenal’s second goal. So dangerous all night and ruthlessly slotted his penalty. Kai Havertz 7 Restored to the team after being rested against Forest. Scored the 100th goal of his club career - and he won’t have had an easier one. Gabriel Martinelli 7 Back in the team and back among the goals. Opened the scoring with a poacher’s finish from Timber’s ball into the box. Mikel Merino (Rice 70’) 7 A good cameo. Struck a strong shot that was saved, with Trossard scoring the rebound. Leandro Trossard (Martinelli 70’) 7 Off the bench and on the scoresheet as he headed home Merino’s saved shot from close range. Ethan Nwaneri (Odegaard 78’) N/A Oleksandr Zinchenko (Calafiori 78’) N/A Jakub Kiwior (Gabriel 84’) N/A Subs not used: Neto, Setford, Tierney, Lewis-Skelly, Jorginho, Sterling, Jesus.None

These 7 companies landed New Mexico science and technology startup grantsDonald Trump's potential decision to make a negotiated settlement for both and to end the war may mean less room for Ukraine to win, a general claimed. General Mark A. Milley, the then chief military adviser to President Biden, suggested that neither Russia nor Ukraine could win the war. A negotiated settlement, he argued, was the only route to peace. Trump, however, has made clear his distaste for continuing to help Ukraine take back territory seized by Russia, making a negotiated settlement the only real viable option left. The New York Times reports Ukraine is 'concerned' about whether the Trump administration or Europe will provide any security guarantees that would prevent Russia from invading more territory. Trump has said he would end the war quickly, though he has not explained how. Other aides have outlined a possible plan that would allow Russia to keep the Ukrainian territory it has taken. A phone call just after the election between Trump and President Volodymyr Zelensky of Ukraine shed little light on the question of security guarantees. Aides to both men simply described the tone of the call as “positive.” In recent days, Mr. Biden authorised the use of more 'assertive measures' until he is due to depart the highest US office. Missiles, known as ATACMS, for Army Tactical Missile Systems, have been used to strike inside Russia for the first time. Ukraine used them on Tuesday to strike an ammunition depot in southwestern Russia, according to Ukrainian officials. Last week, Defence Secretary Lloyd J Austin III said the Biden administration had approved supplying Ukraine with American anti-personnel mines to bolster defences against Russian attacks as front lines in Ukraine’s east buckle. The White House has said it will allocate the remaining $9 billion in security assistance before Trump takes office. Of that amount, the administration plans to give Ukraine just over $7 billion worth of arms and munitions from Pentagon stocks, and about $2.1 billion to order more weapons from U.S. defence contractors. Pentagon officials claim it would be challenging for the Trump administration to suspend aid that has already been approved by Congress and set into motion. It was also lifting a ban on US military contractors to help Ukraine's military maintain and repair U.S F-16 fighter jets and Patriot air defences. The Defense Department is soliciting bids for a small number of contractors who would be far from the front lines and would not be fighting Russian forces, a Pentagon official said. The administration’s decision to allow Ukraine to use the ATACMS missiles to strike inside Russia was a major change in U.S. policy. It came partly in response to Russia’s decision to bring North Korean troops into the war, officials have said. Putin knows he has to wait only two months for a new administration believed to view Russia more favorably, and his choice for director of national intelligence, Tulsi Gabbard, has often repeated Kremlin talking points. Ukraine has lost territory in the east, and its forces in the Kursk region in western Russia have been partly pushed back as North Korean recruits join the fight. The number of Ukraine's soldiers killed in action, about 57,000, is half of Russia’s losses but significant for the much smaller country. Speeding up US weaponry in the waning months of the Biden administration will not do much to change the course of war but could help Ukraine enforce a cease-fire or armistice line if there were to be a settlement, officials said. Ukraine will not be able to join NATO either through Biden or Trump’s presidency. U.S. and European officials are discussing deterrence as a possible security guarantee for Ukraine, such as stockpiling a conventional arsenal sufficient to strike a punishing blow if Russia violates a cease-fire. Several officials even suggested the US could return nuclear weapons to Ukraine that were taken from it after the fall of the Soviet Union. Andriy Zagorodnyuk, a former Ukrainian defense minister, said in an interview that for a successful cease-fire, Ukraine and its allies must reverse the momentum on the front line to set conditions for talks. Ukraine’s army, though on a back foot now, has held out for more than two and a half years against a larger, more powerful opponent. “The fact that we went 10 rounds with Mike Tyson is a success,” Mr Zagorodnyuk said.Greene Jr. runs for 3 TDs, Matthews adds 134 yards and a score to lead Towson over Campbell 45-23

Big Players Have Their Eyes on Magnachip! What It Means for You.

The combination of London-based media and data company Informa PLC’s Informa Tech and Massachusetts-based TechTarget became official Monday, creating a B2B data giant. The proposed deal was announced early in 2024 and recently won approval from TechTarget shareholders. Informa TechTarget will trade on the Nasdaq under the symbol TTGT. Informa PLC contributed $350 million in cash and the Informa Tech Digital Businesses into Informa TechTarget, in exchange for a 57% equity stake in the business. The $350 million in cash, or approximately $11.70 per outstanding TechTarget share, will be paid to existing TechTarget shareholders, who also retain a 43% equity stake in the combined company. Gary Nugent, former CEO of Informa Tech, will serve as the Informa TechTarget CEO. Informa TechTarget will offer B2B marketers in the technology sector a broad range of products and capabilities. Perhaps most importantly, the company will be awash in first-party data from people researching business technology purchases across a sizable portfolio of web properties, analyst firms and digital platforms. How did we get here? Many of the B2B tech media brands that fall under Informa TechTarget are well-known to B2B marketers. Many of the brands go back decades and are no strangers to mergers and acquisitions. Both Informa Tech and TechTarget used strategic acquisitions to build their portfolios of properties over the years. The Informa Tech portfolio included media brands like Industry Dive, Information Week, Light Reading and AI Business; research firms Omdia and Canalys; and lead generation platform NetLine. TechTarget’s portfolio included more than 150 websites under the TechTarget umbrella; research firm Enterprise Strategy Group (ESG); and virtual events and video platform BrightTALK. As the value of audience data increased and B2B marketers in the tech sector, in particular, emphasized buyer intent data, both TechTarget and Informa Tech responded accordingly. TechTarget offered a buyer intent platform called Priority Engine that gives marketers access to data about prospects actively researching tech solutions. Informa Tech created IIRIS, a B2B customer data platform that collates, standardizes and analyzes all of the first-party data generated by its portfolio. First-party takes centerstage The impact of and the resulting thirst for first-party data is all over the this deal. One of the challenges many media organizations face when it comes to first-party data is scale: They can’t generate anything comparable to the volume of third-party data. First-party data and scale were both mentioned in a statement by Stephen A. Carter, Group Chief Executive at Informa, when the deal was proposed earlier this year. ”Today we significantly strengthen Informa’s position in the growing B2B digital services market, creating a platform to serve B2B customers at scale digitally, as we already do in live and on-demand B2B events,” Carter said. ”Over the last three years, Informa has built a proprietary first-party data platform, IIRIS, and expanded our position in the B2B Digital Services market. Now, through a majority shareholding in US-listed TechTarget, we are positioning this business firmly where the customers and the value are.” According to Informa, the total addressable market (TAM) of Informa TechTarget will expand customer reach by more than 10x. The new company will also be positioned to drive revenue and growth in new technology-enabled B2B markets. TechTarget’s CEO sees scale, content as advantages The combination of TechTarget and Informa Tech was about scale in a number of areas, said Mike Cotoia, the CEO of TechTarget when the deal was proposed. The size of the permission-based audience will, of course, be larger, but so will the company’s geographic footprint if the deal is approved. A combined company could better serve global marketing teams at enterprise vendors, for example. Cotoia said the combination provides scale for marketers trying to reach buyers in vertical markets.Business technology buyers increasingly sit in line-of-business (LOB) positions outside of centralized IT organizations. To reach these buyers, marketers need to work with media companies focused on vertical markets like healthcare, financial services and construction. TechTarget acquired Xtelligent Healthcare Media in 2021 to break into the healthcare vertical. The addition of Informa Tech’s Industry Dive properties includes coverage for more than 30 additional verticals. Like most B2B publishers, Cotoia said TechTarget serves two groups: The marketers who need to reach buyers and the tech buyers themselves. The B2B marketers, he said, are interested in how they can activate intent data and find the fastest, most accurate path to the next deal. But they’re also trying to make their work easier. “B2B marketers want to do more with less. They’ve added leads, they’ve added data and they’ve added martech and sales tech solutions. Now they want to simplify it,” Cotoia said. “And they want better conversions.” On the buyers’ side of the equation, the combination of TechTarget and Informa Tech is about delivering high-quality content, according to Cotoia, because the way business technology buyers research and purchase changed significantly in the past decade. “Today’s tech buyer is a younger buyer who relies less on sales reps and more on trusted content and experts,” Cotoia said. “We’re making sure we provide the impressive content they’re looking for when they’re evaluating options and making critical decisions for their tech stack.” Cotoia expects content to remain central to the strategy going forward. “We’re a publisher at heart, as we understand the value of leading with trusted, smart content because that’s what our readers and today’s tech buyer refer to when it comes to making decisions,” Cotoia said. With an impressive collection of first-party data, vast content resources and an international footprint, a combined TechTarget and Informa Tech cuts an imposing figure on the B2B media playing field. How will the competition respond? Cotoia has a prediction: More M&A activity. “I think consolidation is really a trend that is going to keep going,” he said.

Last week I told you about finding two of my young calves injured by an unknown predatory animal. Once my animals had been treated, I needed to try to find what had caused the injuries. What kind of critter would perform an attack in this manner? Could other calves be at risk? Would this predator repeat the attack? Without more clues than we were able to gather, the best we can do is eliminate some of the more improbable culprits. Mountain lion or bear are both efficient and effective killers. Either of these predators would have made quick work out of dispatching the calf rather than inflicting a wound to leave it alive and injured. Either would take their kill back on the hill, somewhere out of sight, to consume it. I’m reasonably sure we would simply have had a calf missing from the herd rather than discovering injured animals. Coyote or bobcat are sufficiently large to be able to create a wound of this size, but both of these calves are at least as large as either predator. Even though nothing is impossible, for these animals to attack a 100 pound calf with the intent of creating a meal doesn't seem highly probable. A large dog, or even a pack of dogs, are certainly large enough and strong enough to create the same kind of wounds. However, a bite on the hip is definitely not their style or their preferred location of attack. Ears, lips, or eyes would be much more liable to be injured if the wounds were from dogs. I’ve been out of town for a few days. As soon as I returned to my hilltop, I jumped on the quad to check out my injured animals. I was gratified to find both calves lying down but looking reasonably good. As I drove closer, they both got up easily and seem to be on the mend. It appears the perpetrator of the trauma to the calves will have to remain unknown. After last week’s column several of you emailed comments to me on the problem with the calves, expressing concern for my animals. I appreciate your fear and worry. I'm as equally frustrated and apprehensive as you. Many years ago, Sharon and I started attracting hummingbirds by hanging sugar-water feeders. Even after her passing five years ago, I’ve continued filling the feeders and attracting the birds. When we first hung out the hummingbird welcome mat, we only had two one-quart feeders. One summer we had a few more birds and began adding feeders. During the late summer we had six going full blast. First thing in the early morning and last thing before dusk, the two heaviest feeding periods, every port at every feeder would be occupied sometimes with other impatient birds hovering behind them. That seemed to peak in late August, and by mid-September the big crowd of birds seemed to have migrated. At least by early October the number of birds showing up at our feeders had always dropped dramatically. This past summer the big crowd of birds began showing up in late July and got even busier by late September. I expected the large gatherings at my feeders would thin out by mid-October or the first of November at the latest. To some extent they did, but it didn’t last. One evening about a week ago I glanced out to find every feeding portal on every hanging feeder was crowded. I now have eight feeders hanging along my front porch. Every portal had one bird with their beak in the hole sipping sugar-water. There was another one impatiently dodging back and forth wanting their turn to eat. Accurately counting the number of dodging and ducking hummingbirds is nearly impossible. Since each one of my eight feeders has six portals, that’s 48 places to eat. With at least two birds at each feeding portal, I had close to 100 hummers feeding. I was amazed at the size of this crowd and wondered if a great many birds were gathering together in preparation for migration in the next few days. However, because I need to fill again this morning and it has been only three days since I last topped them off, it doesn’t appear the numbers have dropped much. Maybe when our night-time temperatures start consistently dropping below freezing, we will see the big numbers of hummingbirds evacuate our foothills. Rain hasn't been heavy yet and it looks as if there's little coming until after New Years. With a total of 2.54 inches in November, we did get the green grass growing on our hillsides. We got a little squirt – 0.11 inches – on December 12, and nothing more than a drop or two since then. We haven’t dried out entirely because the morning dew has been helping keep things moist. You might be surprised to learn we're ahead of last winter’s rainfall with 2.68 inches total so far. Last year we only received 1.38 inches until a few days after New Years. Bob and I started our irrigation system late last week thinking it might be a good idea to put a little water on the irrigated pasture grass. He came in a couple hours later telling me he’d shut it off again. The soil appeared to be wet enough. Most of the water from the sprinklers was running off rather than soaking in. When the ground stays this wet, we're definitely going to have a few foggy days. I always chuckle when I hear them reporting “thick fog” conditions with quarter-mile visibility. It reminds me of my “Tule Fog” tales, something a lot of us have many to tell. Merry Christmas to you all, and here’s hoping Santa runs out of coal before he gets to your stocking.

By LINDSEY BAHR Christopher Nolan is following his Oscar-winning “Oppenheimer” with a true epic: Homer’s “The Odyssey.” It will open in theaters on July 17, 2026, Universal Pictures said Monday.

Sabrina Carpenter, Lady Gaga, Jimmy Fallon and (of course) Jason Kelce Details remain scarce, but the studio teased that it will be a “mythic action epic shot across the world using brand new IMAX technology.” It will also be the first time that an adaptation of Homer’s saga will play on IMAX film screens. Nolan has been an IMAX enthusiast for years, going back to “The Dark Knight,” and has made his last three films exclusively using large format film and the highest resolution film cameras. For “Oppenheimer,” the first black-and-white IMAX film stock was developed. Nolan hasn’t said specifically what the new technology for “The Odyssey” will be, but earlier this month he told The Associated Press that they’re in an intensive testing phase with IMAX to prepare for the new production. “They have an incredible engineering staff, really brilliant minds doing extraordinary work,” Nolan said. “It’s wonderful to see innovation in the celluloid film arena still happening and happening at the highest level possible.” “The Odyssey” will be Nolan’s second collaboration with Universal Pictures following “Oppenheimer,” which earned nearly $1 billion at the box office and won the filmmaker his first Oscars, including for best director and best picture . Rumors about his next project have been swirling ever since, with near-daily speculations about plot — none of which turned out to be true — and casting. While there are many reports about actors joining the ensemble, none has been officially confirmed by the studio.
