- Dolly Parton died on August 25 at age 80, and news of her death shocked the world.
- As a songwriter, she portrayed poverty, heartbreak, and wronged women bluntly while establishing herself in Nashville.
- 'Jolene' became her 1973 country No. 1 hit and was later reinterpreted by Beyoncé, Miley Cyrus, and others.
- Through Dollywood, she turned land in the Smoky Mountains into an amusement park centered on her life.
I didn't want to be domestic. I wanted to be free. I had my songs to sing, I had an ambition and it burned inside me. It was something I knew would take me out of the mountains. I knew I could see worlds beyond the Smoky Mountains.— Dolly Parton, in her 1977 Rolling Stone cover story

- Many protesters at the Nafas-organized rally in Tunis called on President Kais Saied to resign.
- With temperatures reaching 50 degrees Celsius, electricity demand hit records, prompting STEG to introduce rationing in several regions.
- Power cuts disrupted water-pumping stations, while prolonged outages quickly depleted bottled-water supplies by interrupting factory operations.
- Launched in May, the Nafas movement seeks to unite parties and independent figures beyond Tunisia’s traditional opposition to Saied.
We are also calling for the fall of the regime because after seven years, it has been proving its failure without a vision for change and reform.— Oussama Farhat, a 25-year-old primary school teacher and online influencer, speaking after Thursday’s protest.

Summary created with AI assistance · Source: sandiegouniontribune.com
- The California Energy Commission unanimously approved the nation’s first efficiency standards for replacement tires on Monday, with implementation for passenger vehicles and light-duty trucks scheduled to start in 2029.
- The standards aim to make replacement tires at least as energy-efficient as tires on new vehicles, and the commission estimates annual savings of about $1 billion in refueling costs and 2 million metric tons of carbon dioxide emissions.
- The commission estimates an added cost of $1.50 per tire in the first phase and $6.50 from 2033 onward, while projecting that internal-combustion vehicle drivers will save an average of $179 in gasoline over a tire set’s lifetime.
- Some tire makers and industry groups forecast replacement-cost increases of about $6 to $10 per tire and say 70% of tires currently sold would not meet the 2033 requirements, while the commission provides exemptions for certain specialty tires.
