☆ Incandescent light bulb ban: What you need to know
▼ + stars: | 2023-08-01 | by ( David Goldman | ) edition.cnn.com time to read: +3 min

New York CNN —America’s ban on incandescent light bulbs, 16 years in the making, is finally a reality. That effectively outlaws the manufacture and sale of common incandescent bulbs, the kind you screw into the vast majority of light sockets in your home. That’s because traditional incandescent bulbs provide just 15 lumens per watt, according to light bulb manufacturer Philips. Not all incandescent light bulbs are banned as part of the new rule, according to the Department of Energy. The ban caps off a decades-long bipartisan effort to ban incandescent bulbs that started in the Bush administration.

CNN —Taylor Swift fans are in their record-breaking era. The “Swift Quake” has been compared to the 2011 “Beast Quake,” when Seattle Seahawks fans erupted after an impressive touchdown by running back Marshawn “Beast Mode” Lynch. The ensuing celebration was detected on the same local seismometer as the Swift concert, Caplan-Auerbach told CNN. Seismograms compare seismic activity from the 2011 'Beast Quake' with activity recorded during one of Taylor Swift's July concerts in Seattle. While the magnitude difference between “Beast Quake” and “Swift Quake” is only 0.3, Caplan-Auerbach said the Swifties have the Seahawks fans beat.

Visit Seattle, the city's tourist organization, hopes the same will happen this weekend. King County Council declared the week leading up to the concert as "Taylor Swift Week" in her honor. Woody said he expects 144,000 Swift fans to descend on the city over the two days of concerts. "I love Taylor Swift and she’s not coming to Canada yet,” said Katherine Archibald who is visiting Seattle from Calgary, Alberta for the concert. In addition to the two sold out concerts, Seattle is also hosting multiple sporting events, the Bite of Seattle food festival, and the Capitol Hill Block Party music festival this weekend.

Wildcat said it owned 3 million Consolidated Communications shares, equivalent to about a 2.6% stake. The offer was made on April 12 by a consortium led by private equity firm Searchlight Capital, which owns 34% of Consolidated Communications. Consolidated Communications formed a special committee to consider the offer later that month but has not provided an update since. TD Cowen analysts wrote in an April 13 note that they expected Consolidated Communications to accept the deal given its capital needs and operational challenges. But Wildcat argues that any deal should not be for less than $14 per share because the value of Consolidated Communications' investment in its business has yet to be realized.

☆ ‘Elemental’ Review: Sparks Fly
▼ + stars: | 2023-06-15 | by ( Amy Nicholson | ) www.nytimes.com time to read: +2 min

“Elemental” is the latest Pixar premise to feel like someone laced the cafeteria’s kombucha keg with ayahuasca. This story is simpler (elemental, even). Yet, the four classical elements are one of civilization’s great unifiers, a cosmological theory shared by the Hindu Vedas, the Buddhist Mahabhuta, the Kongo cosmogram, the Indigenous medicine wheel and the zodiac. We’ve long interpreted life through water, earth, air and fire. Now, the trick is to see the life in them, once we squint past the visually overwhelming chaos of Element City, a smelting pot of puns and allusions.
