New report confirms 2025 among Hawai'i's driest, warmest on record
In 2025, Hawaiʻi experienced its second-driest year in more than a century, alongside persistently above-average temperatures throughout the year—a stark reality detailed in the inaugural Hawai'i Annual Climate Report 2025. Published by the University of Hawai'i Sea Grant College Program, this first-of-its-kind report uses plain language, along with easy-to-interpret maps and figures, to summarize statewide rainfall, temperature, and drought conditions over the past year.

The Swedish energy regulator has approved standardised definitions for flexibility products. This makes it easier for suppliers and aggregators to optimise customer devices for local grid needs. The more flexibility offered through these market mechanisms, the lower the costs for all energy system users.

Ei godkänner marknadsprodukter för flexibilitetstjänster
Energimarknadsinspektionen (Ei) godkände i december 2025 ansökningar om specifikationer för flexibilitets­tjänster och standardiserade marknads­produkter. Besluten innebär att de elnätsföretag som ansökt har möjlighet att använda gemensamma och harmoniserade produkter vid marknadsmässiga köp av flexibilitet – något som skapar tydlighet och bidrar till transparenta villkor för branschens aktörer.

Alcatraz has been practically frozen in time since the day that the storied prison saw its last inmate 62 years ago.
When the federal government closed the facility, officials had deemed it a deteriorated relic that was insufficient for housing inmates.
Alcatraz closed in part because it was far more expensive to run a prison on an island than on the mainland since everything had to be shipped in.
The small number of prisoners made the extra expense even more questionable…

Trump’s Idea to Turn Alcatraz Back Into a Prison Draws Criticism From Tourists
At the beloved attraction in San Francisco Bay, visitors could scarcely believe President Trump had suggested turning Alcatraz back into a penitentiary.
