More Heat. Join in with everyone’s favorite new pastime. Watch the ERCOT dashboard all day and see if those supply and demand lines cross while you wonder why Texas really deregulated an electricity market that runs on a power grid isolated from the rest of the country. Not great, Bob!
Marion Barber’s Cause of Death. The Collin County Medical Examiner’s office determined that the former Cowboys running back died of heat stroke. He was found dead in his apartment on June 1.
