From India Blooms, three Pakistani Ahmadi men are denied bail after being arrested for allegedly sharing online a distorted version of the Koran.  (As with any story from an Indian site about events in Pakistan, or vice versa, some figurative NaCl might be justified.  However, IB cites, but does not link to, the Pakistani site Dawn.)

From NECN, a large cargo ship arrives at the port of Boston, which is expected to help relieve supply chain problems.  (My spellchecker has no problem with the site's name, which is probably the call letters of an affiliated TV or radio station.  The story comes via NewsBreak.)

From CNN, here's the storm headed my way.  (via NewsBreak)

From BizPac Review, congresscritter AOC (D-NY) claims that the omicron coronavirus variant is not "mild".
