Video TranscriptExpand ↓

I'm Sarah Dawn, and my company name is Swell Little Donuts, and I'm the owner. I started Swell Little Donuts in twenty sixteen. I really love donuts, and, I actually saw mini donut machines when I was at a state fair in Alaska, so I thought it would be fun to start something that I could bring to, large groups of people and kind of lighten the event. I decided to go with with PayPal because I was already familiar with PayPal, and I went with PayPal because I needed to use a product that had invoicing. So that's the product that I primarily use is their QR code to accept payments and invoicing. A small business owner and not having a background in business, I had to figure out how to, take payments and how to do invoicing and how I was going to, structure my business. So I would say have a lot of grit and ask questions actually through PayPal group, a lot of support that I could receive if I had questions.

Siemens moves microgrid wiring and testing from the jobsite to the factory

Siemens moves microgrid wiring and testing from the jobsite to the factory

Projects that fit Siemens' standard configurations skip much of the on-site integration. Anything else needs custom engineering.

  • 01A microgrid's controller, protective relays and switchboard can now ship as one factory-tested lineup, which moves much of the integration and protection testing off the jobsite.
  • 02The speed in MIS comes from standardization, so what it does for any one project depends on whether that project fits Siemens' standard configurations. Unusual ratings, controls or protection schemes go to custom engineering.
  • 03"Vendor-agnostic" applies to the energy assets: solar, batteries and generators from other suppliers can connect. The control and protection layer is Siemens' SICAM and SIPROTEC.

Hardware takes 61.7% of the $98.5 billion grid upgrade market in 2026

Hardware takes 61.7% of the $98.5 billion grid upgrade market in 2026

Global grid modernization spending hits $98.5 billion in 2026, and 61.7% of it goes to hardware. Equipment supply now sets the pace. That could squeeze utilities and data center builders competing for the same high-voltage components.

  • 01When hardware holds 61.7% of the grid modernization market, factory capacity sets the pace for upgrades.
  • 02Distribution networks hold 55.6% of the market, and utilities in the Zpryme survey also ranked distribution automation, FLISR and hardening as top priorities, so feeder-level equipment is where budgets and forecasts agree.
  • 03Smart grid and grid modernization forecasts range from 5.7% to 15.6% annual growth depending on what they count, so the first question for any vendor-cited number is which definition sits under it.

xAI subsidiary offers to buy Southaven homes near its turbine plant if owners release their noise claims

MZX Tech, the xAI subsidiary running the gas-turbine plant powering its Mississippi data centers, is offering to buy homes in Southaven’s Colonial Hills area if sellers sign a release tied to a June noise lawsuit.

  • 01Offer letters sent through a local broker condition the sale on a release of all claims in the Haley lawsuit, with prices reportedly keyed to Zillow estimates.
  • 02An agent in Guardian recordings cited a goal of 418 homes and 18 agreed sellers, neither confirmed by the company; county records show five Colonial Hills purchases since October 9.
  • 03Southaven's mayor calls the buyouts voluntary and good corporate citizenship, while renters report 60-day move-out notices after landlords sold.
