Anything that burns… Anything that burns contributes to air pollution. We should support cleaner alternatives. Replace coal grills and tandoors with electric ones. Replace thermal power plants with solar panels everywhere. Replace petrol and diesel with EVs.

While PM Modi has been calling up counterparts abroad to wish them for Eid, in his constituency, authorities prepare to send 14 young men for allegedly breaking their fast on a boat, to jail for 10 years. #VasudhaivaKutumbakam-The world is our village but not our own countrymen
IANS@ians_india

Varanasi, Uttar Pradesh: On the arrest of 14 youths in Varanasi for dumping non-vegetarian food into the Ganga during an Iftar party on a boat, Advocate Nityanand Rai says, ''The turning point in the case was the boatmen, as we had mentioned earlier. The statements of Ranjan Sahni and Anil Sahni, which were recorded by the investigating officer in report number 4, were read out in court by the public prosecutor. It was stated that the boat was taken forcibly against their will. The VNS case is now under section 308.5, which has a 10-year maximum sentence. Therefore, in this case, Section 308/5 of the VNS is applicable, under which the punishment is more than 10 years of imprisonment...''

"The regime still appears to function. If it falls apart, the result may be chaos and bloodshed. A former member of the IRGC says that, should the chain of command rupture, the security forces have a plan to disperse into 30,000 five-man units." economist.com/briefing/2026/…

Ozempic costs $936/month in the US. As of tomorrow in India, it'll cost $40. The Ozempic patent expired this week in India. 50+ Indian generic makers are launching copies. India already supplies 20% of the world's generic drugs and just did the same thing to weight-loss medication that it did to HIV drugs two decades ago: made them affordable for billions. Patents also fell in China (17+ generics in Phase 3), Brazil, and Canada. Combined, that's 40% of the world's population. Meanwhile, @EliLillyandCo just dropped results for what comes next. Retatrutide hits three gut hormones instead of one. In Phase 3, patients lost 28.7% of body weight (71 lbs average), the biggest weight loss ever recorded in a late-stage trial. A1C dropped 2% in a diabetes cohort. The old guard goes cheap. The next generation goes bigger. 890 million adults with obesity are watching.

Iran's launch of it's "DHOBI" class of drones and missiles (code name "#FireinTheLaundry" ) is 'cleaning' out US / Israeli Navy jets & ships, including 3 x F-15E , the stealth F-35, Startotankers, & the USS Gerald Ford. This has created a 'spin' in the US / Israeli top brass.

I spoke to Anthropic’s AI agent Claude about AI collecting massive amounts of personal data and how that information is being used to violate our privacy rights. What an AI agent says about the dangers of AI is shocking and should wake us up.

Anyone still chewing gum? That chewy part that never gets smaller is a plastic polymer. That same polymer can also be found in plastic bags, glue and tires. A 2025 UCLA has shown that chewing gum releases hundreds to thousands of microplastics into your saliva per piece. I highly recommend you stop chewing plastic.

India's cooking gas crisis is partly a macro story about dependence on a single source. But it is also a micro story about a distribution system wide open to graft and struggling to get fuel to those who need it most: economist.com/asia/2026/03/1…

If you were Iran, you would take this as a sign that the retaliatory strikes on Qatar were highly effective in restoring some sort of deterrence.

Trump says U.S. “knew nothing” about Israel’s attack on South Pars. Trump knew and supported it, as we reported today, seeing it as a message to Tehran over the Strait of Hormuz. He then decided no more attacks on Iranian energy sites (which he semi-confirms re: South Pars).
