Quick Glance: Daily Outings for Disabled Dogs with Turkey's Woof Express
- An animal lover in Turkey has constructed a train using plastic barrels to provide daily excursions to disabled dogs at a shelter located outside Ankara.
- Buket Ozgunlu, the chairwoman of the Association of Paws Holding onto Life, firmly believes that dogs, just like humans, require a change of scenery, and if walking is not an option, a drive suffices.

- To ensure a top-notch ride for the dogs, Ozgunlu and her colleagues have painted the plastic barrels in vibrant colors and are planning to add a tarp to offer shade.

nytimes.com/2024/04/06/nyregion/earthquake-nyc-overdue.html
Quick Glance: Magnitude 4.8 Earthquake Rocks New York City and Northeast US
- An unusual East Coast earthquake startled millions from New York to rural New England. Over 42 million people may have felt the midmorning quake with a preliminary magnitude of 4.8.
- While causing no widespread damage, the earthquake led to evacuations in Newark, New Jersey, and infrastructure inspections across the region. Flights were diverted, trains slowed, and tunnel traffic stopped.
- Although no major damages were reported, the earthquake caused some disruptions. The area near the epicenter experienced minor effects, including the collapse of a historic site. There were also over a dozen aftershocks reported in the region.
- President Joe Biden offered assistance, while New York City reported no major safety or infrastructure issues. Engineers emphasized that New York skyscrapers are made of high-strength materials and designed to sway slowly to withstand impacts. Even the delicately placed eggs in a sculpture at a Chinatown art gallery remained unharmed during the quake.
