Hello Readers,<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

After a trip to India, I would like to give some information about India. After 5 years since my last visit to India, I found that the growth of construction and roads are tremendous. However, they need to learn the rules of driving. Anyone can cut you off and come in front of you without any signals or any sign. Still, the highways are better than before. Many cities relate to three lanes each side (6 lanes total). Also, they have a toll system for the highways.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I went to visit Mumbai, and they have built six lanes on the Mumbai Trans Harbour Link (bridge) in the Arabian Sea. The bridge\u2019s construction was started in 2018 and besides Covid delays, they completed the bridge or link within 5 years\u2019 time. Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi achieved so many projects, including 9.5 crores (equals to 95 million US dollars) spent on toilets built within the past 10 years. More and more cities are connected via plane and more and more cities have faster trains. Also, some cities are connected to bullet trains under construction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

BBC NEWS: \u201cMillions of Americans’ online accounts have been caught up in a “sinister” Chinese hacking plot that targeted US officials, the justice department and FBI said on Monday. Seven Chinese nationals have been charged with enacting a widespread cyber-attack campaign. They are accused of ties to a hacking operation that ran for 14 years. The US state department announced a reward of up to $10m (\u00a38m) for information on the seven men.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In India, I heard that hackers call you and even if you do not say a word they take all your information, as they have got some of your information prior to calling you. One they call and you say hello\u2026hello and hold for a minute, they will transfer all your data including bank accounts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On March 26, the Key Bridge in Baltimore collapsed. A container ship hit the pillars of the bridge. No one has envisioned that one cargo ship (which usually goes slow under the bridge) could damage the whole bridge. Rescuers are searching for people and investigating the cause of the accident. So far, the ship is said to have lost power.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

US News: \u201cU.S. Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson delivered a sizzling retort to fellow Justice Samuel Alito Tuesday, questioning his \u2018specialized scientific knowledge\u2019 of abortion-inducing drugs. The justices heard arguments Tuesday morning from a lawyer for the anti-abortion Alliance for Hippocratic Medicine, which holds that the FDA erred in allowing mifepristone, one of the drugs used in a medication abortion, to be dispensed remotely. The FDA and most major medical associations say the ruling is sound, pointing to studies showing no difference in severe complications when the pills are dispensed via telemedicine versus in person.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Have a wonderful week. I\u2019ll talk to you next week.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
