Dali collided with Baltimore's Francis Scott Key Bridge, leading to a controversial response. A US-based webcomic, Foxford Comics, posted a cartoon the day after the incident, captioned «Last known recording from inside the Dali moments before impact,» which has sparked outrage. The collision occurred when the Indian crew operating the Dali lost power, causing it to collide with a concrete pier supporting the bridge. This impact resulted in a significant portion of the bridge collapsing into approximately 50 feet of freezing water below. However, the crew's quick thinking and Mayday call alerted authorities, enabling them to swiftly shut down traffic on the bridge, potentially saving lives.

Shiv Sena leader Vijay Shivtare, who had declared that he would contest the Lok Sabha polls as an independent candidate from Maharashtra's Baramati constituency, changed his stand on Saturday.

Murugha Mutt in Dharwad, a religious mutt of Veerashaiva-Lingayats, has distanced itself from the demands for replacement of Union Parliamentary Affairs Minister Pralhad Joshi as the BJP candidate by March 31. Fakir Dingaleshwar Swami, the head of a Lingayat mutt in Shirahatti, held a meeting with a group of community seers at Murugha mutt premises in Dharwad on Wednesday, and sought Joshi’s replacement on grounds that he suppressed the community members. The clarification from Sri Mallikarjuna Swami, the head of Murugha Mutt, has come as a big relief for Joshi who has been winning the Lok Sabha polls in Dharwad with the solid backing of Lingayats, who are dominant in the region.

The bulk of Earth’s water, about 97%, is in salty oceans and thus useless for drinking or growing food. Of the 3% that is fresh, most is locked in ice sheets and glaciers, many of which are melting rapidly into the oceans thanks to climate change. A relative few drops of fresh water are available in ponds, lakes and rivers, which are easily accessible but also vulnerable to pollution, overuse and drought. Humanity’s biggest source of fresh water — representing just 0.8% of Earth’s total water — is in underground aquifers. Decades of drought, pollution and overuse are shrinking even that precious supply, and rising sea levels threaten to spoil even more of it with saltwater incursions. A recent survey of groundwater levels at hundreds of wells worldwide found that 71% have fallen since the start of the 21st century. Groundwater loss worsened at more than half of the studied wells during that time.

BALTIMORE — Maryland Gov. Wes Moore warned Thursday of a «very long road ahead» to recover from the loss of Baltimore's Francis Scott Key Bridge as the Biden administration approved $60 million in immediate federal aid after the deadly collapse. Meanwhile the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers was moving the largest crane on the Eastern Seaboard to help remove the wreckage of the bridge, Moore said, so work to clear the channel and reopen the key shipping route can begin.

₹150, say, and if it’s tails, you lose ₹100. Since either outcome is half likely, this punt’s pre-toss expectation value is ₹75 to be won and ₹50 lost—which should make us go for it. Yet, many of us would shrink from it because “losses loom larger than gains." So, while the ₹25 extra on the table is a rational prospect, it may still fail to cover the psychic pain of possibly losing ₹100.
