The Western Journal: City at Center of a Homeless Crisis Blocked from Enforcing Ban by State Judge

The ruling stems from a lawsuit by Disability Rights Oregon and homeless individuals, highlighting ongoing struggles with homelessness in the city.
Grants Pass has faced criticism for its handling of encampments, particularly in city parks. The ruling requires the city to revert to previous capacity levels at camping sites, while still allowing enforcement against sleeping on sidewalks and streets.

Ofgem has proposed a £40 compensation for customers whose smart meters fail to send readings for over 90 days, as part of efforts to pressure energy suppliers to resolve smart meter issues. Suppliers must also provide quicker fixes and a resolution plan within five days when problems are reported.
Concerns remain about the high number of smart meters operating in "dumb mode," affecting around 10% of meters. The proposals will be consulted on until May, but critics argue they do not address the regulatory issues that incentivize suppliers to prioritize new installations over repairs.

Following criticism from prominent actors, the Academy condemned violence and affirmed support for artists' free speech.
Ballal, co-director of the documentary "No Other Land," was arrested alongside two others after a violent incident in the West Bank. The Academy's leadership faced backlash for not directly addressing Ballal's situation, leading to an extraordinary board meeting and an apology to him and other artists who felt unsupported.

On The Water: Fishing for Holdover Stripers on Long Island
Early spring marks the onset of striper fishing in Long Island's back bays, where resident stripers become more active as water temperatures rise. Anglers typically target these fish during the late afternoon flood tide, using various lures and techniques to maximize their catch.
As the season progresses, anglers adjust their tactics and lure sizes based on the weather and fish activity. By the end of April, migratory stripers arrive, complementing the holdover population. Successful fishing relies on understanding the fish's behavior and adapting to changing conditions.
