So, a meager snowpack means meager spring runoff into reservoirs — and perhaps, down the road, less water to distribute to farms and cities.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The DWR and other analysts are quick to point out that last year’s historic wet season filled the state’s reservoirs — most of which are storing more water than they typically would at this time of year.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>So it might not be as bad as it sounds, but it's definitely not good.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch1>\u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/science/2018/01/08/listen-1200-years-of-earths-climate-transformed-into-sound/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Before you go...\u003c/a>\u003c/h1>\n\u003cp>A Stanford researcher has created a \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/science/2018/01/08/listen-1200-years-of-earths-climate-transformed-into-sound/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">piece of music\u003c/a> out of climate data from the past 1,200 years (collected by Berkeley researchers).

"content": "\u003cp>Actress Uma Thurman, in long-awaited remarks, has accused embattled Hollywood producer Harvey Weinstein of forcing himself upon her sexually and accused \"Kill Bill\" director Quentin Tarantino of making her perform a dangerous car stunt that injured her.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Thurman's allegations against Weinstein had been widely anticipated since she hinted late last year that she had a story to tell about the beleaguered movie mogul, who has been accused of sexual misconduct against many women, but wanted to wait until she was less angry. Her story came in an interview with New York Times columnist Maureen Dowd.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I used the word 'anger,' but I was more worried about crying, to tell you the truth,\" Thurman said in the Times article. \"I was not a groundbreaker on a story I knew to be true. So what you really saw was a person buying time.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Thurman told Dowd that an early encounter with Weinstein in a Paris hotel room in the 1990s ended with him suddenly appearing in a bathrobe and leading her to a steam room but that the first \"attack\" — the word appears in quotes — happened later in London.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"He pushed me down,\" she said. \"He tried to shove himself on me. He tried to expose himself. He did all kinds of unpleasant things. But he didn't actually put his back into it and force me. You're like an animal wriggling away, like a lizard.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Later, she alleged, she arranged a meeting with Weinstein and warned him: \"If you do what you did to me to other people you will lose your career, your reputation and your family, I promise you.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Times article says Thurman's memory of the Weinstein encounter stops there, but it quotes a friend who was waiting downstairs as saying Thurman emerged from an elevator disheveled and shaking.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Her eyes were crazy, and she was totally out of control,\" said the friend, Ilona Herman.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When Thurman was able to talk again, Herman said, she revealed that Weinstein, who was one of the most powerful men in Hollywood, had threatened to derail her career.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A representative for Thurman, Leslie Sloane, responded to an Associated Press request for more details on all the encounters by saying only: \"The article speaks for itself.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Weinstein, the executive producer of award-winning movies including Matt Damon and Ben Affleck's \"Good Will Hunting\" and Tarantino's \"Pulp Fiction,\" acknowledged making an \"awkward pass\" at Thurman but denied physical assault and emphasized a longstanding professional relationship with her.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Mr. Weinstein acknowledges making an awkward pass 25 years ago at Ms. Thurman in England after misreading her signals, after a flirtatious exchange in Paris, for which he immediately apologized and deeply regrets,\" his representative Holly Baird said in an emailed statement. \"However, her claims about being physically assaulted are untrue.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The statement questioned why Thurman waited 25 years to make her allegations public and said numerous photographs show Thurman and Weinstein had a \"strong relationship\" for many years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Thurman, one of the stars of \"Pulp Fiction,\" also was quoted as saying that just before shooting began on Tarantino's \"Kill Bill: Vol. 1,\" which came out in 2003, she told Tarantino about Weinstein and he confronted the mogul, leading him to apologize.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Thurman also described a harrowing onset episode on location in Mexico in which Tarantino ignored her expressed fears of driving a car that she had been warned might be faulty.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Tarantino persuaded her to do it, the article said, quoting him as saying, \"Hit 40 miles per hour or your hair won't blow the right way and I'll make you do it again.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Video accompanying the article online shows Thurman struggling to control the car and crashing into a tree.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Thurman said in the article \"that was a deathbox that I was in,\" the seat \"wasn't screwed down properly\" and the sand road \"was not a straight road.\" She said that after the crash she left a hospital in a neck brace with damaged knees and a concussion.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Tarantino's representatives did not respond to the AP's request for comment. The Times also did not get a response, according to the article.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Weinstein, who has been accused by scores of women of sexual assault or harassment, was fired by the film company he founded with his brother and was expelled from Hollywood's movie academy. He has apologized for causing \"a lot of pain\" with \"the way I've behaved with colleagues in the past\" but has denied \"any allegations of non-consensual sex.\"\u003c/p>\n\n",

Her story came in an interview with New York Times columnist Maureen Dowd.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I used the word 'anger,' but I was more worried about crying, to tell you the truth,\" Thurman said in the Times article. \"I was not a groundbreaker on a story I knew to be true. So what you really saw was a person buying time.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Thurman told Dowd that an early encounter with Weinstein in a Paris hotel room in the 1990s ended with him suddenly appearing in a bathrobe and leading her to a steam room but that the first \"attack\" — the word appears in quotes — happened later in London.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"He pushed me down,\" she said. \"He tried to shove himself on me. He tried to expose himself. He did all kinds of unpleasant things. But he didn't actually put his back into it and force me. You're like an animal wriggling away, like a lizard.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

The Times also did not get a response, according to the article.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Weinstein, who has been accused by scores of women of sexual assault or harassment, was fired by the film company he founded with his brother and was expelled from Hollywood's movie academy. He has apologized for causing \"a lot of pain\" with \"the way I've behaved with colleagues in the past\" but has denied \"any allegations of non-consensual sex.\"\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

Ansligner’s campaign demonized marijuana as \u003ca href=\"https://www.pearson.com/us/higher-education/program/Inciardi-War-on-Drugs-IV-The-Continuing-Saga-of-the-Mysteries-and-Miseries-of-Intoxication-Addiction-Crime-and-Public-Policy-4th-Edition/PGM294306.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">a dangerous drug\u003c/a>, playing on the racist attitudes of white Americans in the early 20th century and stoking fears of marijuana as an “assassin of youth.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Over the decades, there’s been a general trend toward greater social acceptance of marijuana by a more educated society, seeing the \u003ca href=\"https://www.aclu.org/issues/mass-incarceration/smart-justice/war-marijuana-black-and-white\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">harm caused\u003c/a> by the prohibition of marijuana.

Likewise, DuPont’s investment in nylon was threatened by hemp products.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Anslinger’s tactics included \u003ca href=\"https://www.vanderbilt.edu/ctp/The_New_Jim_Crow.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">racist accusations\u003c/a> linking marijuana to Mexican immigrants. His campaign included stories of urban black men who enticed young white women to become sex-crazed and instantly addicted to marijuana.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Anslinger’s campaign succeeded beyond his aims. His fearmongering was based more on fiction than on facts, but it made him head of the Bureau of Narcotics for 30 years. The social construction of cannabis as one of the most dangerous drugs was completed in 1970, when marijuana was classified as \u003ca href=\"https://www.dea.gov/druginfo/ds.shtml\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">a Schedule I drug\u003c/a> under the Controlled Substances Act, meaning it had high potential for abuse and no acceptable medical use.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Almost 50 years later, the classification remains and Anslinger’s views endure among many policymakers and Americans.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Spurious relationships\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Today, marijuana critics often cite studies that show a connection between marijuana use and a host of negative outcomes, like use of harder drugs, criminality and lower IQ. Anslinger used the same tactics to incite fear.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But a correlation does not mean a causation.

His fearmongering was based more on fiction than on facts, but it made him head of the Bureau of Narcotics for 30 years. The social construction of cannabis as one of the most dangerous drugs was completed in 1970, when marijuana was classified as \u003ca href=\"https://www.dea.gov/druginfo/ds.shtml\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">a Schedule I drug\u003c/a> under the Controlled Substances Act, meaning it had high potential for abuse and no acceptable medical use.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Almost 50 years later, the classification remains and Anslinger’s views endure among many policymakers and Americans.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Spurious relationships\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Today, marijuana critics often cite studies that show a connection between marijuana use and a host of negative outcomes, like use of harder drugs, criminality and lower IQ.

Because of the program, Medina, the daughter of farmworker immigrants in Bakersfield, has been able to access and climb the corporate ladder of San Francisco's high-powered world of finance. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">As Medina grapples with an uncertain future, she tries to focus on the personal choices she can control. When she contemplates the possibility of losing DACA if Congress and President Trump are unable to reach a deal, she reminds herself of an old Mexican proverb.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It goes, 'They tried to bury us but they didn't know we were seeds,' \" said Medina, 26, on a recent morning. \"That's so powerful 'cause it's true. You want to attack my humanity? I’m going to keep on being human, and I’m going to keep giving back, keep loving. I'll just continue to move forward, whatever that looks like.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Medina Speaks Up \u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The first time I met Medina was last September, just days after the Trump administration announced it was phasing out DACA. Medina and a dozen other\u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/2017/11/30/bay-area-latinas-grow-a-culture-of-philanthropy/\"> Latina philanthropists\u003c/a> in San Francisco were sitting around a conference room table, talking about how they responded to the news.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"This is really personal for me,\" said Medina, an analyst for Bank of the West. \"So I went directly to some of the members of our executive management and I was like, 'Where do you stand? Do you support me? And if you do, how do you support me?' \"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Medina said the bank's CEO ended up writing a statement saying that the bank stood by its DACA employees, offering legal aid or sponsorship of renewal applications.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I was really proud to just stand up and speak up!\" she said to applause from the group of bankers, teachers and tech workers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Next, it was Claudia Hernandez’s turn to speak. The project manager at Facebook said the president's DACA decision saddened her because it affects many people she knows. So she was contacting members of Congress.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I hold myself accountable now to calling every single week for the next six months to ask for something permanent,\" said Hernandez, 26, Medina's roommate and best friend.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Both women came to the U.S. with their parents from Mexico as kids. They grew up in California with little money, Medina in Bakersfield and Hernandez in San Jose, and met their freshman year at Mills College in Oakland.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Both worked hard to land scholarships and graduate. They launched their careers, and now they are donating money to Bay Area non-profits. They want to give others the kind of support they received.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I'm a product of all that help,\" Hernandez said. \"That's why I want to give back now because I know so many people need it.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But for all their similarities, the two women have one major difference. While Medina fears losing her DACA status and everything she has worked for, Hernandez is now a U.S. citizen. She was able to become a permanent resident years ago.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Regardless of what Congress or Trump decide on immigration, Hernandez can keep her job without worrying about deportation, and travel outside the country without fear that she might not make it back.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11647750\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg class=\"wp-image-11647750 size-full\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/02/RS29221_IMG_1368-qut.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/02/RS29221_IMG_1368-qut.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/02/RS29221_IMG_1368-qut-160x107.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/02/RS29221_IMG_1368-qut-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/02/RS29221_IMG_1368-qut-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/02/RS29221_IMG_1368-qut-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/02/RS29221_IMG_1368-qut-960x640.jpg 960w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/02/RS29221_IMG_1368-qut-240x160.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/02/RS29221_IMG_1368-qut-375x250.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/02/RS29221_IMG_1368-qut-520x347.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Janeth Medina, a DACA recipient, makes herself breakfast at her home in Oakland on Jan. 28 2018. \u003ccite>(Farida Jhabvala Romero/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Preparing for the Possibility of Losing her Job\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When I visited Medina in Oakland one recent Sunday morning, Hernandez was not there.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Yeah, Claudia went to Mexico to visit some family.

Because of the program, Medina, the daughter of farmworker immigrants in Bakersfield, has been able to access and climb the corporate ladder of San Francisco's high-powered world of finance. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">As Medina grapples with an uncertain future, she tries to focus on the personal choices she can control. When she contemplates the possibility of losing DACA if Congress and President Trump are unable to reach a deal, she reminds herself of an old Mexican proverb.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It goes, 'They tried to bury us but they didn't know we were seeds,' \" said Medina, 26, on a recent morning. \"That's so powerful 'cause it's true.

I'll just continue to move forward, whatever that looks like.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Medina Speaks Up \u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

"content": "\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The first time I met Medina was last September, just days after the Trump administration announced it was phasing out DACA. Medina and a dozen other\u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/2017/11/30/bay-area-latinas-grow-a-culture-of-philanthropy/\"> Latina philanthropists\u003c/a> in San Francisco were sitting around a conference room table, talking about how they responded to the news.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"This is really personal for me,\" said Medina, an analyst for Bank of the West. \"So I went directly to some of the members of our executive management and I was like, 'Where do you stand? Do you support me? And if you do, how do you support me?' \"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Medina said the bank's CEO ended up writing a statement saying that the bank stood by its DACA employees, offering legal aid or sponsorship of renewal applications.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I was really proud to just stand up and speak up!\" she said to applause from the group of bankers, teachers and tech workers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Next, it was Claudia Hernandez’s turn to speak. The project manager at Facebook said the president's DACA decision saddened her because it affects many people she knows. So she was contacting members of Congress.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I hold myself accountable now to calling every single week for the next six months to ask for something permanent,\" said Hernandez, 26, Medina's roommate and best friend.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Both women came to the U.S. with their parents from Mexico as kids. They grew up in California with little money, Medina in Bakersfield and Hernandez in San Jose, and met their freshman year at Mills College in Oakland.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Both worked hard to land scholarships and graduate. They launched their careers, and now they are donating money to Bay Area non-profits. They want to give others the kind of support they received.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I'm a product of all that help,\" Hernandez said. \"That's why I want to give back now because I know so many people need it.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But for all their similarities, the two women have one major difference. While Medina fears losing her DACA status and everything she has worked for, Hernandez is now a U.S. citizen. She was able to become a permanent resident years ago.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Regardless of what Congress or Trump decide on immigration, Hernandez can keep her job without worrying about deportation, and travel outside the country without fear that she might not make it back.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11647750\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg class=\"wp-image-11647750 size-full\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/02/RS29221_IMG_1368-qut.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/02/RS29221_IMG_1368-qut.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/02/RS29221_IMG_1368-qut-160x107.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/02/RS29221_IMG_1368-qut-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/02/RS29221_IMG_1368-qut-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/02/RS29221_IMG_1368-qut-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/02/RS29221_IMG_1368-qut-960x640.jpg 960w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/02/RS29221_IMG_1368-qut-240x160.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/02/RS29221_IMG_1368-qut-375x250.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/02/RS29221_IMG_1368-qut-520x347.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Janeth Medina, a DACA recipient, makes herself breakfast at her home in Oakland on Jan. 28 2018. \u003ccite>(Farida Jhabvala Romero/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Preparing for the Possibility of Losing her Job\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When I visited Medina in Oakland one recent Sunday morning, Hernandez was not there.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Yeah, Claudia went to Mexico to visit some family.
