Half a million people will remain without power until next week following Beryl’s trail of destruction across Houston. In the area’s brutal summer heat, outages can be a killer. The Texas Tribune’s Emily Foxhall spoke with residents who are sick of the uncertainty.  On In Conversation, brain-science expert Mitch Prinstein explains what we know about how social media affects children’s brains — and shares advice for parents to help regulate their kids’ use.  The Athletic shares what to watch for on a bumper day for international soccer fans on Sunday. First, in Germany, Spain and England go head-to-head in the final of Euro 2024. A few hours later, in Miami, Argentina and Colombia duke it out for the Copa América title.
