Summer in a Hot, Stuffy Bedroom

I have some experience with a portable unit. It is loud but takes no outside space and requires no special wiring.

Opinion
A Divided Court on Three Big Rulings
Dissents in a death penalty case included reasons to end all executions. The justices were also split in redistricting and environmental decisions.
"The
problem, as Justice Elena Kagan explained in a sharp dissent, is that
the E.P.A. considered the costs connected to the emissions rule “over
and over and over again.” After finding that these harmful pollutants
had to be regulated, it set standards, considered how to make them as
inexpensive as possible for different types of plants, and did a
thorough cost-benefit analysis. And yet the majority opinion focused on
only the initial decision to regulate, she wrote, “with barely a glance
at all the ways in which E.P.A. later took costs into account.”
This “micromanagement” of rule making “runs counter to Congress’s allocation of authority between the agency and the courts.”
The
rule remains in place while it is reconsidered by a federal appeals
court in Washington that has already upheld it once. Meanwhile, there is
no good argument for the delinquent power plants to delay any longer."
