BBC from Northern Ireland BBC from Northern Ireland BBC

A Russian super airplane bringing medical drugs and devices to India hit by the third Corona wave. The BBC reports from Northern Ireland:  

More aid is coming from Germany and other Western countries. The daily infections rate mounted to about 400.000. Oxygen for treatment and human resources are lacking. One of the hotspots is the state of Maharashtra with the megacity of Mumbai (Bombay) in the West. How is the famous charity ADAPT (formerly Spastic Society of India) providing physical and psychological treatment for handicapped children (mostly from its shanty-town Dharavi)? I am in contact with its staff:

"Hope you and the other people of ADAPT are safe. Please let me know how you are protecting the handicapped children in Dharavi. How is vaccination going on in Mumbai?

Best wishes from Ekkehard"

Answer from Varsha, deputy of Dr Mithu Alur, the charity's founder, on 07/05/2021: 

Hi. We are all safe, thank you. Dr. Alur had started tele therapy and online teaching immediately so we are in touch with the children and young adults. Some have returned to their villages of course.... They've started vaccinating you above 18 now... Most of us have taken the first dose of the vaccine. Waiting for enough vaccines to be available for the second shot. Hope you and Helen are well... And have taken both the shots. Regards".

    If you are actually called for to have SR22 insurance, it's critical to know what it means.
    SR22 insurance is actually a form filed through your
    insurer. This need frequently happens after major web traffic offenses.
    Be sure your SR22 insurance is constantly in good standing to preserve your driving opportunities.

    I have been surfing online greater than three hours
    nowadays, but I by no means found any fascinating article like yours.
    It's lovely worth enough for me. In my opinion, if all webmasters and bloggers made excellent content material as you probably did,
    the web can be much more helpful than ever before.

    It is 21XX and Dr. Cain, an archaeologist, has discovered X in the ruins of a robotic
    research facility. This facility was run by the famous robot engineer,
    Dr. Thomas Light. Dr. Cain discovers that Mega Man X or
    "X" has intelligence, emotions, and free will.
    He also discovers that he was buried with a 100 year diagnostic program
    to ensure nothing went wrong with him. Dr. Cain decided
    to make reploids that would have the same human emotions and free will that X has.
    Some of these robots go Maverick and engage in criminal activities.
    A team of robots called Maverick Hunters are formed to stop them.
    Sigma, a former Maverick Hunter, has gone Maverick himself.
    He plans to eliminate humans for their inferiority.
    It is up to X and his fellow partner Zero
    to stop him!

    Gameplay: In Mega Man X, the basic goal is to destroy
    the eight robot bosses and then defeat Sigma.

    It is the same basic premise as the classic Mega
    Man series. You can defeat most of the bosses with your X-Buster if
    you have enough skill. Finding each maverick's elemental weakness and learning
    their pattern of movement are keys to defeating them.
    For example, Armored Armadillo is hard to beat with your standard
    X-Buster. If you previously beat a boss and received his weapon, you can expose his weakness.
    Along the way, you can also collect items that improve your status.

    There are classic E-Tanks to collect, Heart Containers to
    increase your overall health, and upgrades to your armor such as the Leg Armor that
    allows you to dash.

    Graphics: Mega Man X's futuristic setting is well portrayed
    in this game. The architecture is supposed to reflect how the year of 21XX
    will be like. Mechanical influences are seen everywhere from light posts to floors.
    I'd say our world is already looking similar to
    Mega Man's if you see the architecture in Asian countries.

    The graphics are amazing for the Super Nintendo. Various environments are featured in the game.
    All of the characters, enemies, and bosses in the game are animated and colorful.

    At the same time, they all match the sci-fi and
    robotic tones of the game.

    Music: The music in the game is excellent. Most of the music
    is up-tempo rock which reflects the action and is very engaging.
    Storm Eagle and Spark Mandrill are examples of this.
    There are some slower, more melodic tunes that are featured on Chill Penguin's stage and Boomer
    Kuwanger's stage. The rest of the audio is great as well.


    Control: The Super Nintendo Pad works perfectly for this game.
    Pressing A or tapping twice on the direction you're facing lets you dash.
    Y lets you use the X-Buster or selected weapon. The L/R buttons make it easy to cycle through the available weapons you have.

    All of the inputs work well without any lag.


    If you love action games and Mega Man in general, you'll
    love this game. With its great graphics, music, and gameplay, it's
    a game you shouldn't miss.

    Pros: Graphics, sound, and responsive controls.



    Cons: Not much to do after you beat the game. Collecting all the upgrades and
    items will add some replay value.

    Score: 8.0

    VGM: "Chill Penguin"

    Car insurance policy is actually certainly not simply regarding your auto.
    It concerns your safety and security and also of others while driving.

    Plus, the ACA helps out here too, since ACA-compliant plans
    also generally need to cover certain types of preventive care.
