Scientists say climate change is a factor behind the erratic and early rains that triggered unprecedented floods in Bangladesh and northeastern India

Bangladesh’s Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina gave a similarly grim assessment Wednesday.

Hasina said that floodwaters would recede soon from the northeast, but they would likely hit the country’s southern region soon on the way to the Bay of Bengal. A total of 42 people have died in Bangladesh since May 17 while Indian authorities reported that flood deaths have risen to 78 in Assam state, with 17 others killed in landslides.

Some, like Mohammad Rashiq Ahamed, a shop owner in the hardest-hit city of Sylhet, have worriedly returned home with their families to see what can be salvaged. Wading through knee-deep water, he said that he was worried about floodwaters rising again. “The weather is changing … there can be another disaster, at any time.”

Elon Musk's daughter applies to legally change name to sever ties with fatherElon Musk's daughter wishes to cut all ties with her father and has legally applied to change her name, to distance herself from the Tesla billionaire. 😥 I assume that Xavier will also no longer want any of Elons financial support either. I'm all for Xavier doing this, but if Xavier is going to 'sever all ties' then that should mean 'all'. Unless Xavier is merely doing this for attention, that is. Elon can now celebrate, that he does not have to be associated with that embarrassment.
