Best cities for veterans according to Navy Federal Credit Union | National
SUMMARY: A recent study by Navy Federal Credit Union and Sperling’s BestPlaces identified the best U.S. cities for veterans, with Sarasota, Florida, topping the list. Other high-ranked cities include Norwich, Connecticut; Derry, New Hampshire; and Omaha, Nebraska. The study evaluated over 400 cities based on quality-of-life metrics such as income, affordability, and community resources. Separate rankings were also developed for retired veterans, home-buying, small business opportunities, and small towns, featuring cities like Altoona, Pennsylvania, and Coeur D’Alene, Idaho. This marks the fourth edition of the study, which began in 2018.

Judge denies death row inmate delay request, clemency set for Monday
SUMMARY: Judge denies death row inmate Kevin Underwood’s request for a stay of execution ahead of his scheduled execution on December 19 for the 2006 murder of 10-year-old Jamie Rose Bolin, which involved plans to cannibalize her body. Underwood’s execution process has been complicated by turmoil within the Oklahoma Pardon and Parole Board, including the recent resignation of two appointees and ongoing criminal investigations. Despite his attorneys’ claims that the addition of a new board member could hinder proceedings and potentially violate open meeting laws, the judge ruled against delaying the execution. Clemency is set for discussion on Monday.

EPA: Methane emissions down 44% in top oil and gas producing basins | National
SUMMARY: Methane emissions from major oil and gas basins in the U.S. fell by 44% from 2011 to 2013, with a significant drop of up to 87% reported from 2019 to 2023, according to EPA data. Texas led this reduction, coinciding with record-breaking crude oil production. Emissions intensity, which measures methane emissions per barrel, has notably decreased, particularly in the Williston and Appalachian Basins. The Permian Basin saw a 32% reduction in methane emissions, with a dramatic 66% drop in flaring intensity since 2019. Texas could rank third globally in natural gas and fourth in oil production if it were a separate country.
