Finland Joins NATO
War in Ukraine makes other countries who share borders with Russia to be proactive and have some allies on their side.
“With receipt of this instrument of accession, we can now declare that Finland is the 31st member of the North Atlantic Treaty,” Mr. Blinken said.

Former Start-Up Founder Charged by Prosecutors for Defrauding JPMorgan Chase
Good to see that SEC police the nonpublic & early-stage companies too.
In fact, according to the government, Ms. Javice oversaw efforts to create a list of fabricated customers by acquiring names, contact information and other data from third-party companies. Frank then passed those names off to JPMorgan as its existing customers.

Personal Update
We are still settling down in the new place, every day is a progress and better than the previous day 🙂.
It’s been a month in Dallas, we went out to the Grapevine Mills Mall here.
Took off on good Friday & checked out some local places. First we went to the nearby HEB (a famous Texas local superstore), then to Legacy west (a live, work, play & eat concept). Went to a food court Legacy Hall & it was a fun place. Me & Nila tried Velvet Taco & Elizabeth tried an asian.
After almost a month, I finally took my bike for a ride & explored the trail from our community. It’s probably 3-5 miles round trip, a good trail for a weekday ride.
And met almost all of the fellow Tamil families in the Tamil new year celebration in our community. It was a fun filled event with some cultural performances by the kids, food, games & socialising. Happy Easter & Advance Tamil New Year!
