On one city block, three passive houses generate more electricity than they use. A full neighborhood of 18 houses is coming next.
On a recent winter day in Boston, the temperature outside was in the 20s. But inside a recently built house, it stayed around 72 degrees even though the heat wasn’t running.
Even if you are great at your job, ensure that you bring good vibes and energy to others.
Work is not just an opportunity to display your skills and talents, but also an opportunity to show others you can bring value. That includes being a good organizational citizen and team player and helping others.

New year, new lunar lander: this time, from Firefly Aerospace on its first mission to the moon.
Combined, these traits become complementary forces that empower leaders to navigate challenges while inspiring teams to reach new heights.
Leadership lies at the intersection of driving outcomes and cultivating human connection. Balancing these forces—what I call “edge” and “soul”—is the hallmark of leaders who make a genuine impact.??

At the ripe ol’ age of 49, David Beckham is a picture of health. Freakishly, really. For a guy who retired from professional soccer in 2013, Beckham looks like he could pull on an Inter Miami shirt and hit the pitch for the MLS club he cofounded in 2018, instead of sitting up in the owner’s suite.

The negotiations, mediated by Qatar, Egypt and the United States, appear to be making progress after months of failed attempts to achieve a breakthrough.
California Governor Gavin Newsom has launched California Fire Facts, a new webpage to combat misinformation and debunk rumours about the Los Angeles fires. Unfortunately, it doesn't offer quite as much clarity as it could.
False and misleading information about the L.A. fires has swiftly been circulating on social media, with many users pointing fingers and attempting to assign blame for the disaster. At least 24 people have been killed in the fires so far, while more than 12,000 buildings...

From the "please not this again" department comes the news that China is looking to sell TikTok's U.S. operations to (who else?) Elon Musk.
According to Bloomberg, Chinese officials are "evaluating" this option as TikTok gets increasingly close to getting banned in the U.S.
TikTok tried to fend off the ban, which goes into effect on Jan. 19, through legal means, with no luck so far. To stop the ban, ByteDance, TikTok's parent company, would have to find a buyer for TikTok's U.S. arm, as...
Several local water systems in the Los Angeles area have begun issuing warnings about the potentially unsafe drinking water.
The wildfires in the Los Angeles area have destroyed thousands of structures, many of them homes, and firefighters continue to battle the infernos. Parts of Pacific Palisades, Altadena, Pasadena, and other California communities are now unrecognizable.
If you want to be a good leader, these are the basic things you must have in order before a crisis hits.
It’s easy to be in a leadership role during good times. You’re the equivalent of Oprah telling everyone in the audience that they just got a new car. But, when times are tough, that’s when you have to look in the mirror and say “that’s why they pay me the big bucks.”
Saltwater corrodes firefighting equipment and may harm ecosystems, especially those like the chaparral shrublands around Los Angeles that aren’t normally exposed to seawater.
Firefighters battling the deadly wildfires that raced through the Los Angeles area in January 2025 have been hampered by a limited supply of freshwater. So when the winds are calm enough, skilled pilots flying planes aptly named Super Scoopers are skimming off 1,500 gallons of seawater at a time and dumping it with...
