HGP Partners With Shaw To Deploy Navy’s Nuclear Reactors On Land

HGP Partners With Shaw To Deploy Navy’s Nuclear Reactors On Land

HGP Intelligent Energy is partnering with the Shaw Group to deploy U.S. Navy submarine and aircraft carrier nuclear reactors at the DOE’s Paducah, Kentucky facility. Back in December, we covered their initial proposal to the U.S. government to utilize reactors from the Navy in an effort to find the quickest means of deploying new nuclear energy to support AI demand for government efforts like Project Genesis. The U.S. Navy has operated the most successful nuclear program in history with over 7,500 reactor years of safe operation. It is abundantly clear that if there is a way to bring their technology and operational success to other efforts and venues, these possibilities should be pursued. Shaw will be utilizing its previous experience with nuclear projects, including their involvement at Vogtle Units 3 and 4, to advance HGP’s CoreHeld Project through engineering, procurement, and fabrication services. Shaw’s potential scope of work includes “balance-of-plant module fabrication, piping systems, structural components, pressure vessels, and related nuclear-grade equipment.” The Paducah, Kentucky, site has been a hotspot of nuclear fuel chain activity over …

5 Things That Are Very Easy If You’re Happy, But Are Super Challenging For Miserable People | Zoe Shaw

Happiness is not something we seek, but rather something we choose. You were sold a bill of goods when it comes to being happy, especially as women.

It never could. Happiness is not out there. It’s inside yourself. It’s kind of like when someone gushes about how great something tastes, and you taste i,t and it just tastes okay — you are disappointed. If someone told you the same thing was very good for you and that it tasted okay, you would eat it and have a very different experience. Your expectations would be realistic.

Add to playlist: the dark fog of Los Angeles saxophonist Aaron Shaw and the week’s best new tracks | Music

From Los AngelesRecommend if you like Miguel Atwood Ferguson, Shabaka Hutchings’s flute music, the ColtranesUp next Debut album And So It Is released 13 February For woodwind players, breath is everything: the lifeforce of artistry, the thing that furnishes sound with personality. But a few years ago, the Los Angeles saxophonist Aaron Shaw realised he was becoming increasingly breathless. In 2023, aged 27, he was diagnosed with bone marrow failure, meaning he wasn’t producing enough oxygen-carrying red blood cells. A change of approach was required. Shaw had risen quickly. He studied with Kamasi Washington, worked alongside Herbie Hancock and Anderson .Paak, and tutored André 3000 in music theory. Shaw works regularly with LA bandleader Carlos Niño, and played on his 2024 new-age jazz album Placenta and last year’s collaboration with poet Saul Williams. In turn, Niño has produced and played percussion on Shaw’s forthcoming debut album And So It Is, which has something of the West Coast jazz haze you find in both Niño’s and Washington’s music. But Shaw’s sound is actually a lower, darker …
