"Business. Learn how at IBM dot com slash government, IBM. Let's create. It's 8 38. Time for traffic and weather on the 8s. Let's get an update from Rita. Well, let's look at three 95 in the northbound direction your delays actually begin on northbound 95 back near the fairfax county Parkway. This will take you on to three 95 headed just past edsel road where we have the wreck involving a vehicle on its roof right now traffic is temporarily stopped as they have a tow truck on the scene and they need to move the vehicle out of the roadway where you were getting by to the right. But again, right now everybody is stopped so they can move the vehicle out of the roadway, hopefully they will get you going shortly. Then you're going to find delays on northbound three 95 from The Pentagon headed across the 14th in the case onto the freeway toward the third street tunnel. If you're on the beltway, the delay begins on eastbound 66 headed onto the inner loop of the beltway, headed all the way around past the dulles toll road where there's usually some work set up taking Elaine. George Washington Parkway is incredibly heavy first northbound from the scenic overlooks passing one 23 with the work, a single lane getting you by southbound slows after one 23 fairly solid all the way to and across the Roosevelt bridge, one 23 in glee road, very slow heading to the chain bridge today. And it looks like Massachusetts avenue inbound, near whitehaven street and rock creek drive, we may have a wreck, seeing delays in both directions, but the biggest backup is on inbound Massachusetts avenue, which is well before, Wisconsin avenue. It was eastbound independence avenue before 12th street a broken down bus had been in the center of the roadway. Southbound 95 after 32, that crash should be gone, but it was eastbound 100, passing 95 before route one. There was a crash in the right lane. Southbound T 70 after the lane divide after Brock lidge drive, the crash was moved over to the left shoulder. All the travel lanes have been reopened, but you're still at a crawl from 28 in Rockville, trying to head toward the inner loop of the beltway. You'll also find back in Virginia, thanks to callers for letting us know eastbound Braddock road near campus drive and pressed wick drive. The left lane is blocked with the crash.

"It was a tight score. Somebody who knows how hard it is to get a hockey puck in something like that. Sure it was a good goal and In that game it doesn't like it locks are when you like pass but it loses the lock through the pass and so when you do the when you go to you know. Put it in the net. It's very like it doesn't lock on at all so there's like it is a lot of aiming and it's quick aiming but like derek said scott goal chris so three funk usually i like the ones words something. There's something crazy about the goal like if people are playing madden. Be rough on and we're going to hear it be rough on them so the ones like seeing and i know how the sports played like one. That's more coupable for madden is if They're kicking off and you catch it completely on the opera. Whole run the horror like there's a crazy interception then you run it like cross the hole and then and then as a twit streamer. If you're recording yourself. Here's the reaction. Add something to it to. This is what. I want you to do. Chris and if you can do this on the nhl the new one when it comes out. I will rank a twenty out of ten holy cow. Get a goal as the goalie. You can do that. Badge coupable flippable. Nhl moment get a goal as the goalie data and when the game still. I want you to know that one. I will say it doesn't have to win the game because that's going to be a really hard task for him to do but then it's just him trying as the goalie constantly while how many times it. He'll have to try that and waste his time to get that clip. I also want to go do a cartwheel before ammo. I'ma need the car. He's gonna have lots of celebrations do after score. So you know you can probably do something okay. Get a goal with the goalie. Then celebrate it k. If you do that to twenty out of ten yeah you have your mission bravo sakes go dark. Bravo six going dark. Buffer this clip. It's a big fat juicy fucking three for me and it's ryan tomatoes. It's big stack. It's fucking big dookie pile with iran tomato on top of it it's fucking sin rating. I might give it a one and a half rock Wow all right. Because he's thinking. So i i like playing nhl It's fun i love so chris i'm gonna give five because i know for a fact we have done better. I know for that. We have had better goals than that one so so. It's very hard for me to give chris a grade because i've been trying to trade with him a little kind of interest every single day. I have sent him a new trade he declines for. I will offer him a couple of players and instantly is like fuck you did. He only pick aaron rodgers too. So you and adam no he so It was actually almost around christmas. A huge packers fan right and he had rogers. Lidge slee will always pick aaron rodgers in our fantasy league and sean almost had a pick before him this year and was going to draft him. I just be drag. Told in spite of chris because you don't usually so you don't usually take a quarterback in the first round but i had. Chris fully believed that i was going to take aaron rodgers number one if i had the chance. Swipe swipe just to you know sean. What do you want to give this clip. It's not football.

And i have watched basically every good movie in the last year at home and i love the convenience of it but would you be willing to watch every movie at home if you knew it would end the theater business as you know it became and business off you will and then eventually no no. No i disagree. We have to collectively make a decision. We're either going to go back to. I mean guys like mason are always go back. I mean it's in his blood right. But it's the guys like me. And you. Greg that are going to make or break the theater business and i really don't want to see a world where you can't go out on a on a night and go to the movies so i'm willing to get back into the theaters. If it saves the theater business. Mike mesa those theatres that are next studio. La live did they survive. I believe they are still open but we lost the arclights. All the arc lights. We lashed someone right around the corner from my house including the center Madonna and it's this has been really really hard on theaters. I'm trying to get out there and support my lok there.

Usc football is the same way. They celebrate championships. This is what the big schools do well last week. Athletic director mike bohn had elite eight rings given to every one of the on the ucla basketball players to celebrate their magical run mason. How do you feel about eight rings. I'm totally fine with you. Know generally speaking. I think participation trophies are okay to for little kids. I think you should build self. Ooh okay and in this particular case the fact that usc basketball made it to the elite eight is a frigging miracle. And i think it should be celebrated. Has usc ever gone to the final four. I don't think they. I mean and rarely have been in the elite eight. I absolutely have no problem with this whatsoever. Gray will by the way it was football. I'd say no i would. I'll speak for my usc friends. Because i spent some time with some this past week. They don't like that. Mike bone has lowered the stander of a standard of excellence. Se for example. Usc used to be one of those schools. Where you win or you get fired especially in football and the fact that klay holton mason. I both liked clay. The fact that klay hilton had a losing season had four hundred seven season and they kept him soured a lotta. Usc fans soured fans because they liked having a high standard of excellence and mike bone hasn't lived up to that so i think it's a problem. It isn't taylor you said that. Usc david wessel blows. I wanted taylor had some. What was it what your usc go. The final four nineteen forty and nineteen fifty four. Oh those weren't born okay. All right well. Michael k williams passed away. Yesterday was very very sad. This guy was just an incredible actor and from the stories that i've read. He wasn't credible person to he was unapologetic in his acting and stole every scene on every show that he was in to me personally. His character omar in the wire. Top three actor in television show period yet but as for h. b. o. Shows it's omar on the wire the other two and no order. Twenty soprano of the sopranos and selina. Meyer veep who are your top three. Hbo television actors or actresses. John you can start number. One is larry david. I think curb your enthusiasm is the funniest half hour. Comedy ever seinfeld on steroids. I i can't tell you how many times i've watched curb by myself and fallen over laughing number two. I don't know which actor i would pick. It would rob peter dink lidge but you gotta put somebody. From game of thrones on. That list might be amelia. Clark who played collegiately. I think dink is the guy mays who came the closest to stealing every angry on that. Yeah so he would be number two. And i don't know if this counts but i thought it was an exceptional character. Danny mcbride as kenny on eastbound and down was a show stopping successor. So those are the three that popped into my head. How about you. So peter dink. College is just outside my top three. My top three. Go larry david. I don't think you can start the list. Without larry david number two selena meyers for meyer. The best selina meyer of course Julia louis dreyfuss and the third one is actually my favorite arc on the sopranos is christopher. Mola santi so. I put into their michael imperial who i think was just a great character ended none. I want to spoil ended badly for him but a great character. Peter dinka jr really close omar really close They're they're definitely so many characters that hbo is created. But those would be my great go ahead. And then i. I gave my nose tony. Soprano selina meyer and omar. Okay goodbye michael. K williams played omar. Do you guys know what was unique about omar on the wire. it's why he was barack obama's favorite character omar was feared. Your background with soft shotgun jer. He he ruled every scene was in. He is the only regular character on the wire. All five seasons who never ever said a four letter word. Wow he never. Michael williams just didn't wanna play the character that way and And so he's the one that you know he just. He was in work blue no and he was a he was a gay assassin hood. And you root for him some fascinating fascinating character. I saw i saw l. z. Post something today. That said the asked the show runner why they made omar gay and he said why did i make all the other ones straight to question. Why why are there so many straight people on that show. That's what i say. Hey greg is that it for jump one more. I got one more or go all right. Ted lhasa was done wonders for the sports world. And just basically a general life. Football is life and now us and now players are quoting the show after games as pitcher cole. Irvine had a really bad outing on sunday. Seven runs in two hundred third innings fairy. Ruining it in the post game dresser said to move on. He will be like a goldfish. Have a ten second memory. The direct quote from ted lasso which is incredible.

"Ablaze by turkey. This is democracy. Now i mean good minutes. Wildfires rage in california. We look now at the corporate profiteering off of those who lost their homes and loved ones to recent fires. A major investigation by npr and pbs station k. Kiwi d. in san francisco found a special set up to distribute thirteen point. Five billion dollars to survivors of wildfires caused by pga california's largest utility company. Instead spent lavishly on its own administration while disturbing almost nothing to the seventy thousand fire victims. This includes victims of the two thousand eighteen campfire in paradise. Many of whom continue to live in trailers those who profited while the fire victims waited for help include wall street bankers and prestigious law firms k. kiwi d- revealed the fire victim. Trust is led by retired. California appeals court justice. John trotter who built fifteen hundred dollars an hour for his work. The findings of prompted a bipartisan call from state lawmakers for the california attorney general to investigate for more we go to berkeley california to speak with the reporter behind this expose lidge. Molly is co host and correspondent for kqed.org the california report. Her latest piece is headlined a year after jeanie left bankruptcy spending by fire victim trust remains a mystery. Welcome to democracy now lilly. Congratulations beyond with you. Amy and congratulations on this. Excellent report one. Don't you lay it out for us. And for a global audience explain what pg is and its role in these fires and then go on from there sure well. This was a joint investigation that was done with us. Kkk we d and with npr's california news room and as you mentioned Up is the largest utility in california. It's actually the largest utility the country as well and in the last half decade. This utility has been responsible for causing several catastrophic wildfires. The worst took place in twenty seventeen and twenty eighteen but there are people who were affected by these fires all the way back to twenty fifteen and so after that last fire which you mentioned the campfire which destroyed much of the town of paradise. People might remember that killed. At least eighty five people destroyed thousands of homes and left tens of thousands of people homeless after that fire. Pj need chose to go into chapter eleven bankruptcy protection and by doing that. They took all of these claims that people had against them. Having lost their homes have lost their businesses in the worst cases having lost their loved ones. They all got thrown into the bankruptcy process in. So that's sort of where the story that we have been reporting really begins about a year into the bankruptcy pg A deal with fire survivors. Seventy thousand of them through their lawyers. that basically called for them to have a special trust set up to distribute what was then marketed to them as being worth thirteen point. Five billion dollars half of it in in cash in half of it in pg stop. Which as you might imagine is very unsettling relied on fire survivors. This idea being asked to accept stock in the company that harmed them but as we sit here today through this trust fire survivors do own five hundred million shares of pg and so that is part of the reason why it has taken quite a bit of time to get this money into the hands of victims but our investigation also looked at the claims up processing expenses that this trust led by former appeals. For justice. john. Trotter how much they have taken in an overhead. He is charging one hundred fifty thousand dollars a month. The top claims administrator charges. Twelve hundred fifty dollars an hour. There's a whole coterie of bankruptcy attorneys end financial advisers. Many of whom are making well over a thousand dollars an hour. And so you really have. This dry. isn't entity that is taking in a lot of money. We showed that they took in fifty million dollars in overhead in their first year of operations while distributing seven million dollars in the calendar. Your twenty twenty two. These fire survivors. The pace of those payments to fire survivors has picked up at this point. They have distributed a north of about four hundred million dollars but their expenses have also risen to the range of about eighty to ninety million dollars. And i think a lot of fire survivors are looking at the situation and wondering. Why is this taking so long if you are spending this kind of money on overhead. What are they getting in return. And they're getting really impatient and they're very unhappy with the way. This process has been run so far. What is the status of the bipartisan calls for the california attorney general to investigate this. Yeah so after our investigation of as you say.

The rolling blackouts of last year was actually instituted by the independent system. Operator here in california because they ran out of power they didn't have enough reserve in their system so they ended up instituting these rolling blackouts over two days in august but there is another kind of blackout that is called by the utilities including pg knee because their lines have caused many fires. That's one way that they now try to prevent their aging and poorly maintained equipment from.

"Ablaze by turkey. This is democracy now. I mean good minutes. Wildfires rage in california. We look now at the corporate profiteering off of those who lost their homes and loved ones to recent fires. A major investigation by npr and pbs station k. Kiwi d. in san francisco found a special set up to distribute thirteen point. Five billion dollars to survivors of wildfires caused by pga california's largest utility company. Instead spent lavishly on its own administration while disturbing almost nothing to the seventy thousand fire victims. This includes victims of the two thousand eighteen campfire in paradise. Many of whom continue to live in trailers those who profited while the fire victims waited for help include wall street bankers and prestigious law firms we d- revealed the fire victim. Trust is led by retired. California appeals court justice. John trotter who built fifteen hundred dollars an hour for his work. The findings of prompted a bipartisan call from state lawmakers for the california attorney general to investigate for more we go to berkeley california to speak with the reporter behind this expose lidge. Molly is co host and correspondent for kqed.org the california report. Her latest piece is headlined a year after jeanie left bankruptcy spending by fire victim trust remains a mystery. Welcome to democracy now lilly. Congratulations beyond with you. Amy and congratulations on this. Excellent report one. Don't you lay it out for us. And for a global audience explain what pg is and its role in these fires and then go on from there sure well. This was a joint investigation that was done with us. Kkk we and with npr's california news room and as you mentioned Up is the largest utility in california. It's actually the largest utility the country as well and in the last half decade. This utility has been responsible for causing several catastrophic wildfires. The worst took place in twenty seventeen and twenty eighteen but there are people who were affected by these fires all the way back to twenty fifteen and so after that last fire which you mentioned the campfire which destroyed much of the town of paradise. People might remember that killed. At least eighty five people destroyed thousands of homes and left tens of thousands of people homeless after that fire. Pj need chose to go into chapter eleven bankruptcy protection and by doing that. They took all of these claims that people had against them. Having lost their homes have lost their businesses in the worst cases having lost their loved ones. They all got thrown into the bankruptcy process in. So that's sort of where the story that we have been reporting really begins about a year into the bankruptcy. Pg any struck a deal with fire survivors. Seventy thousand of them through their lawyers That basically called for them to have a special trust set up to distribute what was then marketed to them as being worth thirteen point. Five billion dollars half of it in in cash in half of it in pg stop. Which as you might imagine is very unsettling relied on fire survivors. This idea being asked to accept stock in the company that harmed them but as we sit here today through this trust fire survivors do own five hundred million shares of pg and so that is part of the reason why it has taken quite a bit of time to get this money into the hands of victims but our investigation also looked at the claims up processing expenses that this trust led by former appeals. For justice. john. Trotter how much they have taken in an overhead. He is charging one hundred fifty thousand dollars a month. The top claims administrator charges. Twelve hundred fifty dollars an hour. There's a whole coterie of bankruptcy attorneys end financial advisers. Many of whom are making well over a thousand dollars an hour. And so you really have this dry into entity that is taking in a lot of money. We showed that they took in fifty million dollars in overhead in their first year of operations while distributing seven million dollars in the calendar. Your twenty twenty two. These fire survivors. The pace of those payments to fire survivors has picked up at this point. They have distributed a north of about four hundred million dollars but their expenses have also risen to the range of about eighty to ninety million dollars. And i think a lot of fire survivors are looking at the situation and wondering. Why is this taking so long if you are spending this kind of money on overhead. What are they getting in return. And they're getting really impatient and they're very unhappy with the way. This process has been run so far. What is the status of the bipartisan calls for the california attorney general to investigate this. Yeah so after our investigation of as you say. This was a bipartisan group of about a dozen state lawmakers here in california most of them. In fact i think all of them represent communities who have been affected by these catastrophic fires. They went you attorney. General rob bonte instead. Look at this. Please take a look in review the claims processing the way it works in the amount of money that's being spent on overhead. Please vet this. We have weed out to the attorney. General's office a number of times to see if they are planning to pick that up in run with it at this point we don't know They told us.

"Dead near coastal settlements. So it's bad stuff for the marine life so just outer disruption here. It's it's e. We recently talked about Sarcasm we'd and and In large quantities of that that The at times become a problem for coastal communities in in in actually creating some of the same problems. we've discussed here making it difficult to to To to leave in a boat that sort of thing may unpleasant to visit the the beach or being the water. But in those cases i mean the sarcasm is still an environment that things are thriving in this. This seems like more of a total disruption of the of the marine environment at all levels. Well it turns out. There's evidence that something is thriving in here but it's not very helpful for the marine life around it so get more to that in just a moment I i guess. I wanted to talk about like what actually is this stuff physically. What is it and how is it. Formed so here. I'm turning back to that. Study from two thousand nine and pilo s. one by dinner varo at all in the way they explained it. Is that marine. Musa lidge starts with what's known as marine snow. So i'm gonna read from their their Explanation in their introductory section here. They define marine snow as quote. Amorphous aggregates with the size ranging from a few millimeters to several meters. And so these are just little flecks of organic material that form an important part of of the ocean because of course it's marine snow raining down from the the traffic Areas in the top of the water. Column where you've got the photo synthesizing organisms. The you know they make energy from from sunlight and then they die and float down or stuff they produce comes off of them and floats down and it creates the sort of blizzard of organic material. That rains down below and feeds organisms. That live much lower down in the water column who are not able to produce energy from sunlight and of course that process is is as they say ubiquitous in the oceans of the world it it's everywhere But then they write quote. Water column stratification So that's the the forming of these layers in the water column water column stratification under summer. Conditions favors the progressive coalescence of small-sized aggregates into large massive sheets thin layers flocks and clouds which are collectively known as marine moose village. Musa ledge is a gelatinous evolving stage of marine snow which can reach huge dimensions and cover areas of hundreds of kilometers of coastline. Now we'll come back to the exact mechanics of how those aggregates form in the water column but yeah so what what. What's going on here. Is that something that would be marine snow. Just these little flecks of Mucus or decomposing matter or organic material of some kind collect when there are certain conditions in the water column and they start to stick together and form these huge masses and those masses become marine moose village again the gelatinous evolving stage of marine snow so in terms of its chemical composition. They say marine musicologist quote is made of exo polymer compounds with highly colloidal properties that are released by marine organisms through different processes including phytoplankton exude. Ation of photo. Synthetically derived carbohydrates produced under stressful conditions. and then they say in through the death and composition of cell wall debris such a release can be coupled with a limited ability of procureur to hydrolysed these x.

"Slash. Think we mentioned that. A lot of the older documented outbreaks of of marine. Musa lidge mentioned in that. Two thousand nine paper and pillow is one. Were in the adriatic sea which is of course than the sea of marmara Apparently there had not been outbreaks of marine mussa. Lidge reported in turkey before two thousand seven but now of course. That's where the big problem is situated. Seems like some of the problem from the adriatic has been alleviated by some Interventions that we'll talk about later on but this current outbreak of sea snot seems to have begun in december of twenty twenty There some of the early signs of it. Where that Fishermen were noticing that it was preventing them from using their nets. I saw this thing about the fisher nets Mentioned in a lot of articles. And i was trying to figure out exactly how it makes the nets unusable. I couldn't nail that down for certain though. I think possibly what's going on is it makes the nets too heavy as it like sort of clogs them up. They they don't really work or possibly interferes with The ability of water to pass freely through. What's supposed to be the holes in the nets. Yeah you can easily imagine how it would turn A net into a parachute made out of out of netting and slime. Yeah gross and another thing. Is i actually saw this. Claim cited in an article for the washington post by antonia newry for on Who said that. It's also sometimes making people wonder whether fish that are successfully caught in the snot infested. Waters are safe to eat And there was no ruling on whether they were not a. I don't know of any reason why they wouldn't be but at least said people were worried about that but it wasn't just a people in the fishing industry who started to notice this. This problem with the new outbreak of marine mussa lidge also was noticed by By scientists there is one example cited in that article in the guardian by Cillian uber tash.

And the point of the sermon. Was that Was that statement. The blood is the life in. The bible is scientifically accurate which on reflection this kind of a funny claim to make. I mean i guess that's true like if you remove all the blood from something it doesn't live anymore But but i started thinking about how the slime is the life. The mucus is life because you've got microorganisms of course that secrete uzi mucus like substances called musa lidge But you can also find that implants if you break a stalk of succulent. It will leak a viscous usage too. Yeah you. I mean we could easily do an entire podcast series if not an entire podcast period on slime. Because you look at the. I mean just look at the ways the importance of slime in the human body. You know it's it's greatly important and look at some of the the very unique creatures that utilized slime so well the hag fish for example that we've discussed numerous times a true wizard of slime sorcerer.
