DAPL update: the one-two punch. Winter storm Blanche was a warning shot. The real storm hits this next week. And then we settle into twelve weeks of North Dakota winter. The AP, with a long story, has an update.

Heidi Heitkamp meets Trump: that pretty much sums it up.

OPEC: commentary by Richard Zeits. I don't know how I missed this one. The article is five days old. Fortunately Don caught it; sent it to me. The article itself doesn't say much, but that's in light of the fact that it's an old article. Maybe it read better the day it was posted. Whatever. Having said that, here are my thoughts, now, also five days late:
  • at the end of the day, this is all about Saudi Arabia, not OPEC
  • or maybe, at the end of the day, this is all about Saudi Arabia and Iran
  • those two had to agree for the meeting to end on a positive note for OPEC
  • Saudi Arabia gave "everything" to get this deal
  • Iran gave up "almost nothing" to get this deal
  • Persia rising
