Good evening. This is John Batchel. The show begins tonight in California. Pacific Watch.

The fires have ebbed and watching huge benefit concert. Fire aid on two venues downtown, one where the

LA Clippers play, the other where the L.A. Lakers used to play. Giant arenas. The television audience could see it at home. There are many acts.

rebuilding Tsar who immediately got into a spitting fight with the owners about when they can go back

and what he considers safe. That's not going well. Small business America, the very high cost of living in

SpaceX, test number eight, Bob Zimmerman, says end of the month.
