There's novel influenza racing across the US with zero mitigations. Expect record numbers of dead American kids this year.

As always: a thread on highlights from @ember-energy.org Nerd Easter global power sector data review!
With lots of good news, some noticeable kinda bad news, and a few things I think are missing from the picture. TY to Ember, this is such a valuable piece of work
Australia and Chile could shift over 50% of the new solar generation they added in 2025 with new battery capacity Large-scale solar shifting is emerging first in markets where solar already dominates the generation mix. Markets like California, Australia and Chile are leading the way. Among these markets, Australia and Chile stand out for adding relatively small amounts of battery capacity in absolute terms, 9 GWh and 4 GWh respectively, but large enough relative to their solar growth to make a material difference. Chile added enough battery capacity in 2025 to theoretically shift 76% of the new solar generation it added in that year, while Australia added enough to shift 53%.
I did not know this - Australia added enough battery capacity to shift *more than half* of its solar generation
Mentions of emissions by GER:
2023: 421
2024: 390
2025: 74
2026: 51
That's the trajectory emissions should be taking, not *mentions* of emissions 😱
Perhaps a separate report or something? It feels under-interrogated!

clean power growth exceeded rise in demand
As I mentioned last year, it is a shame not to see emissions analysis.
Yes: renewables are covering growth now, but it's still vital to ask if emissions fall fast enough. And if not, how to enable that?
Climate impacts are still a danger to our physical safety. This is not a safe power system

The military campaign launched by the United States against Iran is part of a broader effort to contain China.
However, so far, the results appear less favorable for the U.S. and more advantageous for China.

Directly relevant: a @springernature.com journal is still protecting this lethal paper claiming N95s are harmful in pregnancy from accountability. Sheltering connected insiders from embarrassment is more important than the lives and health of babies.
Then we wonder why the loss of public trust.

In 2025, the district court scheduled a hearing to fulfill the mandate set out in our remand instructions. The district court directed the parties to “be prepared to argue for resentencing as to the criminal-sexual-conduct conviction.” At the hearing, counsel representing respondent State of Minnesota noted: “[J]ust to clarify, my reading of the [Jonas] decision was simply to remand for [the district court] to vacate the [kidnapping] conviction and the consecutive 57-month sentence. The 172 month sentence associated with the criminal sexual conduct would remain.” Appellant agreed with the state’s interpretation of the remand instructions. The district court rejected that interpretation and scheduled a second hearing to allow the parties to prepare memoranda and arguments for resentencing. At the second hearing the state now argued that our opinion provided general remand instructions that permitted resentencing on appellant’s criminal-sexual-conduct conviction. The state therefore requested an increase to that sentence so that appellant’s total term of incarceration would return to 229 months. Appellant maintained that Jonas did not permit resentencing on his criminal-sexual-conduct conviction and requested that the sentence on that conviction remain at 172 months.
when initially sentencing appellant, it had three options: “the permissive consecutive, the aggravated departure upward, or the guideline sentence concurrent.” See Minn. Sent’g Guidelines 2.D, 2.F, 4.A, 4.B (Supp. 2021) (providing guidelines regarding sentences and departures). The district court stated that, based on the facts it heard at trial, it had determined that 229 months was the appropriate sentence length for appellant’s conduct. The district court explained that it had chosen to impose permissive consecutive sentences only because it “thought it would be easier than doing an upward departure.” The district court therefore increased the criminal-sexual-conduct sentence to 229 months, an upward durational departure, based on aggravating factors found when it first sentenced appellant in 2023.
DECISION When the court of appeals reverses a conviction and remands with instructions to vacate that conviction and its sentence, the district court does not have authority to resentence on any other convictions absent express authority to do so. The district court abused its discretion by resentencing on appellant’s criminal-sexual-conduct conviction because this court issued limited remand instructions that directed the district court to act only to vacate the kidnapping conviction and sentence. Those instructions included no delegation of our statutory authority to resentence on other convictions. We therefore reverse and remand for imposition of the original 172-month sentence on the criminal sexual-conduct conviction. Reversed and remanded; motion denied.
Today in "damn judges really do be like that": Court sentences defendant to 172 months for a sex crime, 57 months for kidnapping (229 total). The Minnesota Court of Appeals vacates the kidnapping conviction. On remand, the judge re-sentences the sex crime to 229 months. COA says "come on"
