Good morning from Screencaps headquarters. I’m dealing with a surprising situation today. At 7:55 a.m., contractors arrived unannounced to install a smart meter in my backyard. They informed me that the power would be shut off for an hour. I asked if they had knocked, as I had two calm dogs who usually react to visitors. The worker claimed they knocked, but it seemed unlikely. This unexpected visit raises a question: Shouldn’t homeowners get a courtesy notification before their power is cut early in the morning?
Think Twice About Power Saver Programs
While discussing smart meters, concerns arise about potential disadvantages for homeowners. For instance, will smart thermostats eventually restrict your ability to set your desired temperature, allowing utility companies to decide? These developments suggest being cautious with power saver programs.

Fashion Trends and Industry Changes
Let’s shift to recent Sports Illustrated content, featuring Claire Kittle in their swimsuit issue. The editors previously focused on featuring trans models, but now they are pivoting back. Claire Kittle’s biker-inspired swimsuit signifies embracing new trends.
Meanwhile, Victoria’s Secret reported impressive earnings, outperforming expectations. This suggests a shift back to more traditional fashion preferences.
In other news, I’m dealing with ongoing issues with contractors who left our power off and the electric box open. It’s been a frustrating experience, but I’m hopeful for resolution. Have a great day.
