A Note from the TMS Editor
TRANSCEND News, 16 Mar 2026

Dear friends, readers, supporters of TMS,
16 Mar 2026 – With a heavy heart, I acknowledge that our Weekly Digest today is shorter and lacking, and I explain. Last Saturday, I was in a Lufthansa flight from Delhi to Porto with a stopover in Frankfurt. However, between Delhi and Frankfurt, instead of flying on its usual straight line, it had to make a long curve over the south Mediterranean/North Africa to bypass the bombs and missiles from Trump’s war on Iran in the Middle East. It arrived over two hours late, after an 11-hour flight, and I missed my flight to Porto having to stay overnight in Frankfurt. I arrived home yesterday, Sunday, sick and exhausted with the scoliosis in my column hurting as hell.
I had contracted some stomach virus and was utterly unable to finish my work on the WD. Today, Mon, I shall see a doctor. I apologize and despite the rather extenuating circumstances, I beg your understanding and forgiveness; I was supposed to have arrived home Sat night.
I promise our writers that next week I shall publish their pieces and hope to return to normal. Thank you.
In peace,
Antonio C. S. Rosa, TMS editor
