Arizona Corporation Commission Greenlights APS Rate Hike Despite Customer Concerns

Originally Published 1 year ago — by ABC15 Arizona in Phoenix

The Arizona Corporation Commission has approved a requested 8% rate hike for APS, which could result in a $10-12 increase per month for typical residential customers. This decision follows a surge in demand for electricity last year, leading to a 22% increase in third-quarter profit for Pinnacle West Capital Corp., the owner of APS. The rate adjustment aims to support infrastructure upgrades and provide reliable energy, with increased assistance for vulnerable customers included in the plan.

Whiteness and Its Burden: An Unbearable Reality.

Originally Published 2 years ago — by Quillette

The American Physical Society has faced criticism for publishing an article in Physics Education Review that claimed the use of whiteboards was an example of "whiteness" in physics. The article generated a negative response from the physics community, prompting the APS to publish an editorial defending the article and threatening to revoke awards and disqualify candidates who violate the APS Code of Conduct. The APS and Physical Review have since rejected a Comment that critiqued the original article, claiming that scientific analysis cannot be used to critique non-scientific papers.
