How an earthquake can throw the body and brain off-balance
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.

  • The Justice Minister sees the action as symbolically significant, emphasizing the residents' desire to create a new Christiania without a criminal drug market.

  • Having long battled authorities, residents now have the opportunity to control and renovate their land to modernize the hippie oasis.

  • The community hopes that by dismantling the street and renovating, the illegal drug trade will cease, allowing Christiania to remain a legal and alternative part of Copenhagen.

Quick Glance: Arrest of Delhi Chief Minister Raises Concern Ahead of Indian Elections
  • When Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal was arrested in March for an alleged liquor scam by the Enforcement Directorate, it marked the latest incident in a long list of legal offensives against opposition leaders ahead of the Indian general elections.

  • Surveys indicate the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) is ahead, but concerns over unemployment and inflation could boost the opposition.

  • Opposition parties in India, critical of Modi, see recent developments as a government attempt to use central agencies to pressure political opponents.

  • Kejriwal's arrest could pave the way in Delhi for President's Rule, leading to the dissolution of the AAP-led government with the BJP taking control of the state.
