A critical US government report has exposed major security failures surrounding the 2024 assassination attempt on President Donald Trump in Pennsylvania. The Secret Service missed 102 local police radio alerts that could have flagged the gunman before the attack. The agency also lacked a joint communications hub, severely limiting coordination between security teams on the ground.

Auto vs On: How Your Thermostat Fan Setting Affects Comfort and Energy Bills

The fan setting on a home thermostat plays a significant but often overlooked role in indoor comfort and energy consumption. The 'Auto' mode runs the fan only during active heating or cooling cycles, making it more energy-efficient and better at controlling indoor humidity during summer. The 'On' setting keeps the fan running continuously, resulting in more consistent temperatures and improved air filtration throughout the home. However, this constant operation comes at a higher electricity cost. Households with allergy sufferers or pets may benefit from the 'On' setting, while others should weigh their priorities before choosing.

Morgan Stanley warns Delhi EV Policy 2026 could strain automakers if other states follow

Delhi's EV Policy 2026 plans to phase out petrol and CNG two-wheelers by April 2028 and mandate electric three-wheelers from 2027. The policy backs its targets with Rs 70 billion in direct consumer incentives and a plan to deploy over 30,000 charging points across the city. However, a Morgan Stanley report has flagged that if other states replicate the policy, it could pose a significant challenge for the automotive industry. The pressure would be felt most acutely in the two-wheeler segment, which remains a dominant category for major automakers.
