The recent spate of fires in electric scooters led to the government investigating the matter and pulling up manufacturers about the quality standards that went into making batteries and other electrical components. However, this has been more of a reactive measure and the government recently admitted that it lapsed when it came to not bringing the necessary safety standards for electric vehicles. Speaking at the recently held inaugural edition of EV Tech Delhi 2022, General (Retd) VK Singh, Minister of State for Road Transport and Highways, said, "We are cognizant of the fact that we have had issues with the electric batteries, especially two-wheelers. There is a need for the industry, as well as all the others who are enforcing to ensure that the problems are sorted. From the ministry side, we are taking actions to further lay down guidelines so that safety measures are adequate, and we do not have that type of incidents we have had in two-wheelers in the recent past."

The men are Black and the woman is white and they know that calling the police is not a straightforward proposition.

TEXAS CITY — Miles inland from Galveston’s beaches and colorful vacation homes, a group of Black men dribble and jump on a covered basketball court, aiming for a chain-link net. Carver Park in Texas City, created during segregation, is considered the first African American county park in the state. It sits on land donated by descendants of freedmen who survived slavery and pioneered one of Texas’ oldest Black settlements, the footprint of which sits just a few blocks away. Until last year, the park sat at the heart of Galveston County’s Precinct 3 — the most diverse of the four precincts that choose the commissioners court, which governs the county along with the county judge. Precinct 3 was the lone seat in which Black and Hispanic voters, who make up about 38% of the county’s population, made up the majority of the electorate. The precinct sliced the middle of coastal Galveston County , stretching from the small city of Dickinson on the county’s northern end through … [Read more...] about A GOP power grab shatters 30 years of political progress for Black voters in Galveston County

The U.S. childcare market is in growth mode as demand continues to rise in this business sector, according to independent analysis by Grand View Research. The industry was valued at over $50 billion in 2019, and is predicted to experience a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 3.9% through the year 2027. As the study’s authors point out, there’s a widening gap between economic growth, parental employment and access to decent childcare opportunities . Congressional leaders are mulling over affordable childcare tax benefits, while many employers are looking to lead the way in establishing near-site childcare facilities to meet the growing demand. However, the agility of franchising might beat them to it. There are dozens of childcare franchises on the market today, focused on daycare, tutoring, afterschool activities, athletics, academies and schools. Entrepreneurs seeking a business model focused on children will quickly discover the countless advantages.

Pirelli: tyre tests massive step forward (Autosport) “We are learning for next year and had one small look at running again with no [tyre warmer] blankets and we have to write a technical report for the FIA on that.” Raikkonen not daunted by slow start (ESPN) “Sometimes it’s hard to see from the outside but we know ourselves. I was pretty happy with the car in Bahrain and in China we had some issues early on and couldn’t run, which didn’t help.” Bernie’s tax issue (Motorsport) “Had the HMRC laid claim to that £1.2 billion, it would have been spent on national health, schools, roads, defence – all the usual things.

Thai shares swung sharply in the past week within a range of 1,590 and 1,620 points, tracking a similar pattern in global equities. Volatility was fuelled by macroeconomic factors following the recent US Federal Reserve meeting and diverse interpretations of future Fed policy by market participants. Meanwhile, other global risk assets such as bitcoin and gold also nosedived. In the short run, we expect the supports at 1,530 and 1,550 to limit near-term downside for Thai shares. If the SET Index drops to those levels without material fundamental change, it could be the end of the down cycle for this year. We expect the market to move sideways in June and possibly rebound to test the initial resistance level at 1,650 to 1,660, and then at 1,680 to 1,700. We base this on the belief that negative news flows have largely been factored in, and investors have already trimmed their portfolios and squared most derivative positions since the SET started descending steadily from over 1,700 … [Read more...] about Watch for good local recovery plays
