A driver died after crashing a car into the exterior gate of the White House late Saturday, the US Secret Service said. "Shortly before 10:30 pm a vehicle travelling at a high speed collided with an outer perimeter gate on the White House complex" the service said in a statement on social media platform X. The Secret Service, along with the police and fire departments of the District of Columbia, have launched an investigation into the fatal crash, according to Secret Service spokesman Anthony Guglielmi. He added there was "no threat or public safety implications". In January, authorities detained another person who crashed a vehicle into the exterior gate of the same complex.

During an election rally in Himachal Pradesh, Kangana Ranaut, now a BJP candidate, inadvertently mixed up Tejashwi Yadav with BJP MP Tejasvi Surya while criticising the Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) leader for "eating fish". However, it was Yadav who had previously faced criticism for a video showing him consuming fish during Navratri. The rally, held in Mandi, highlighted Ranaut's political foray in the Lok Sabha seat. In her address, she not only attacked Yadav but also accused Surya of "hooliganism" and referenced his alleged fish-eating habits.

Phase One Investigative Maui Wildfire Report , to Be Released Next Month.
ABC reports that seven months after deadly
wildfires devastated Maui, an investigative
report will be released on April 17, 2024.
Hawaii Attorney General Anne Lopez commissioned the
Fire Safety Research Institute (FSRI) to conduct an
independent investigation alongside several local agencies.
The first phase of the investigation is meant
to analyze how the disaster unfolded during
the first 24 to 72 hours, as well as its aftermath. .
The report also includes
a comprehensive timeline of events. .
According to the AG's office, the FSRI research
team ran into unexpected delays while
gathering information critical to their review. .
In November of 2023, subpoenas were served to the
Maui Emergency Management Agency, the County
of Maui Department of Public Works and the
County of Maui Department of Water Supply.
Those subpoenas demanded materials relevant
to the investigation, including documents and photos, as well as video and audio recordings.
Being able to review all of the data,
which is extensive, has a tremendous
impact on the comprehensive analysis
of the fire incident and our
recommendations to make Hawaiʻi
a safer place to live, work and play, Steve Kerber, Ph.D., PE, vice president and executive director of FSRI, via ABC.
An analysis of this magnitude cannot be
rushed, and we must allow for the time
needed to make sure this investigation,
based on science, is done correctly, Anne Lopez, Hawaii Attorney General, via ABC.
I am confident that the Phase One
report will provide some answers
to the questions surrounding
the tragic wildfire incident, Anne Lopez, Hawaii Attorney General, via ABC

Climate Change Altering , Wildfire Patterns, , Increasing the Risk of Night Fires.
'Newsweek' reports that North America is facing an
"emerging phenomenon" in which the dangerous
conditions that spawn wildfires occur during the night. .
Typically, these conditions have only existed
during the daytime, as the cooler temperatures
of night usually alleviate these conditions.
Researchers found that accumulated
fuel dryness brought on by drought
has led to fires thriving at night. .
I think it is important to bring this
emerging phenomenon to the
public to let them know that
the night might not save us, Kaiwei Luo, Ph.D. student at the University of Alberta's Faculty of Agricultural, Life & Environmental Sciences, via 'Newsweek'.
The team's findings challenge conventional methods of
fighting wildfires, as cooler night temperatures and higher
humidity previously worked to slow wildfires' growth.
Originally, I had thought that
since nights are warming faster
than days, higher temperatures
and the associated lower relative
humidity at night would lead
to more overnight fires, Mike Flannigan, University of Alberta professor emeritus and researcher with Thompson Rivers University, via 'Newsweek'.
In the extreme cases, there would be
no difference between an overnight
burn event and daytime burning, Kaiwei Luo, Ph.D. student at the University of Alberta's Faculty of Agricultural, Life & Environmental Sciences, via 'Newsweek'.
Researchers found that daytime
drought conditions could be used as a , "predictor of overnight burning events.".
Nighttime burning has long been
overlooked. In a warmer and drier
world, we can use daytime drought
indicators to predict the night.
More of these fires also increase
the likelihood of a catastrophic fire, Kaiwei Luo, Ph.D. student at the University of Alberta's Faculty of Agricultural, Life & Environmental Sciences, via 'Newsweek'

This Day in History:, Albert Einstein Is Born.
March 14, 1879.
The celebrated theoretical physicist
who radically enhanced human understanding
of the universe was born in Ulm, Germany.
Einstein spent his childhood
in Italy and Germany.
Studying physics and mathematics,
he was awarded a Ph.D. by the
University of Zurich in 1905.
During that same year, Einstein worked as a patent clerk in Bern. He also published five theoretical papers that would transform modern physics.
Known as Einstein's "miracle year,"
his papers included his general theory of relativity
as well as the equation E=mc².
The papers were almost immediately
embraced by the scientific community.
They marked the beginning of
one of the most extraordinary
scientific careers in history
