The board said the air was clean. The air said otherwise.
For 38 days, we watched the AQI displays outside construction sites in Bandra and Khar. 230 readings later, a pattern emerged: zeros, dashes, question marks. We checked them against official station readings and the US Consulate's monitors. The construction-site boards consistently came in lower.
On April 24, a board near Pali Hill told passers-by there was no PM2.5 and no PM10 at all. Next to a construction site.
These screens exist for one reason: to warn the people breathing that air. When they're wrong, mothers send kids out to play and the elderly go for their walk, trusting a number that means nothing. And nobody answers for it. @CMOMaharashtra @Dev_Fadnavis @mybmc @mpcb_official @mid_day @AditiAlurkar

My mother died in 2015 of hereditary ALS. Her sister died in 2022. Their father died in 1974. In 1969 he sat his children down and told them that he was going to die, and he had passed this illness to them, and when they grew up they couldn't have any children of their own.

Reposting because my prior post video is all pixelchunk?
The best tourism ads make you want to visit. A few years ago I was obsessed with Riga thanks to their travel ads. Now it looks like I will be obsessed with Estonia until I finally get to Visit Tallinn!

The GRU hacked into Jared Kushner's iPhone. Dutch military intelligence (MIVD) then recruited a GRU spy who gave them access to the hacked phone. What MIVD discovered was that Kushner had access to two bank accounts --one Azerbaijani, the other Israeli --where Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman and Emirati ruler Mohammed bin Zayed deposited money. It sounds like a slightly far-fetched episode of "Slow Horses," but it's real. And it proves just how eye-poppingly corrupt this administration was and continues to be as its "special envoy" decides the fate of tens of millions in Europe in the Middle East. Simply incredible reporting by Matthew Cole, drawn from his new book on Kushner. vanityfair.com/story/jared-k…
