US power generators burn record amounts of natural gas on hottest day of summer
power generators will likely burn a record amount of natural gas for a second day in a row on Friday, the hottest day so far this summer, as homes and businesses crank up their air conditioners to escape a brutal heatwave blanketing much of the country this week. Extreme weather reminds consumers of the fatal freeze in February 2021 that left millions of Texans without power, water and heat for days and a brutal heatwave in August 2020 that forced the California power grid operator to impose rotating outages that affected about 800,000 customers over two days. As soaring demand stresses electric grids this summer, next-day power prices soared to their highest since January in Southern California and their highest since February in New England, according to data provider Refinitiv.

Rock band ‘Eagles’ co-founder Randy Meisner dies, will be remembered for ‘Hotel California’
‘Eagles’ was one of the most successful rock bands in history, it sold more than 150 million albums across the world. It was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1998. Meisner helped establish this rock band in 1971. He died of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Paying tribute to Meisner, Randy Bachman of the group, Bachman Turner Overdrive said that he was sorry to know that Meisner had left. He called him an ‘incredible singer, songwriter, and bassist’ and prayed for his friends and family. Born in Nebraska, Meisner moved to California and played music and sang songs for Rick Nelson's Stone Canyon Band, and Poco. Later he joined Don Henley, Glenn Frey, and Bernie Leadon to set up the Eagles. He experimented with different types of rock music. Before moving to hard rock, he tried the country-tinged, laid-back West Coast pop-rock sound that created quite a few ripples in the world of music in the 1970s. He soon became exhausted and quit the rock band six years later. As a solo artist, Meisner performed well and composed music like ‘Hearts on Fire’ and ‘Deep Inside My Heart’. He also played on records for other performers like James Taylor, Dan Fogelberg, and another Eagles star, Joe Walsh. Meisner will mainly be remembered for musical hits like ‘Hotel California’ and ‘The Best of My Love’. He was not invited to the reunion tour of the band in 1994. But he joined them at the New York City induction ceremony for the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1998.
