Ashwini Upadhyay in a letter to CM Kejriwal wrote that intoxicating drinks and drugs should completely be banned in NCR in the spirit of Article 47 of the Constitution. |
Delhi BJP spokesperson Ashwini Upadhyay writes to CM Kejriwal urging him to impose a ban on alcohol and other intoxicating drinks in the national capital. |
Delhi BJP spokesperson Ashwini Upadhyay has written to Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal urging him to impose a ban on alcohol and other intoxicating drinks in the national capital. |
“I request you to take appropriate action to ban liquor and other intoxicating drinks and drugs completely in National Capital Territory of Delhi in the spirit of Article 47 of the Constitution of India and make a liquor-free Delhi,” Upadhyay has said in his letter. |
Prohibition is connected with public health and to enforce the ban effectively, a wider definition would have to be given to the word ‘liquor’ in order to include all alcoholic liquids which may be used as substitutes for intoxicating drinks, he said. |
He contended that it is the duty of the state to do so as per the Constitution. |
According to various studies, liquor consumption results in many physical and mental disorders like blackouts, memory loss, anxiety and permanent brain damage, he said. |
“Alcoholism affects behavior and ability to learn and remember. Drinking alcohol is the second biggest risk factor for mouth, throat and liver cancer. Alcohol causes hypertension, which increases the risk of heart attack,” he said. |
Artwork asks: Is capitalism working for you? |
Art project asks: Is capitalism working for you? |
How’s capitalism working for you? |
That’s the question a new interactive art installation will ask passersby in New York City’s Times Square, October 6-9. |
Sponsored by United for a Fair Economy (UFE), a national think tank concerned with issues of income inequality, the project is the brainchild of artist Steve Lambert. The presentation is part of the 2013 Crossing The Line Festival in conjunction with the Times Square Arts project. |
The installation consists of a giant glitzy display stating “Capitalism works for me” with an electronic counter labeled “true” and “false.” Participants are encouraged to think about the issue, vote one way or the other, and to discuss their answer. Volunteers will be on hand to encourage participation and to discuss ... |
The project coincides with recent new data on the growing gap between rich and poor and the ongoing GOP-initiated government shutdown. |
The display will run from noon to 7:00 p.m. Sunday through Wednesday, October 6-9, 2013 in the heart of Times Square. |
The new Google TV platform taps Marvell chip but Google still has some work to do on the software side. |
Google is tapping Santa Clara, Calif.-based Marvell to power its new TV, which will debut next week at CES. |
Marvell's ARMADA 1500 HD Media System-on-a-Chip (SoC) has been designed into the next generation of Google TVs debuting at CES 2012, the chip supplier said Thursday. That chip is based on a design from U.K.-based ARM. |
"Marvell and Google have teamed up to...[transform] the TV into the command center for our connected lifestyle," Marvell co-founder Weili Dai said in a statement. |
The two companies have collaborated on software and chip technologies to grow the Google TV ecosystem of manufacturers and devices, Marvell said. |
But more broadly, the Android Honeycomb update to Google TV has not impressed CNET Reviews. |
"It took Google an entire year to deliver a major update to the first round of Google TV products, and it has not been worth the wait," CNET Reviews said. "While it looks and sounds good in theory, the actual user experience is pretty terrible," Reviews said. |
That said, it is certainly a win for Marvell. An Intel Atom chip appeared in the first Google TV, but that platform never took off. Moreover, the Atom processor has been struggling to gain acceptance in any consumer device beyond the netbook, which itself is fading in the face of tablet competition. |

SpaceX's upcoming launch of the Dragon spacecraft to dock with the International Space Station is finally happening. Probably. |
Originally, SpaceX thought this flight could take place in 2010, but that was later changed to the summer of 2011 and then the fall and winter. This year alone the launch date slipped from Feb. 7 to April 30, and then May 7. Such delays are inevitable in the complicated business of space. |
Back in 2004, companies like Virgin Galactic were optimistically forecasting regular private tourist flights in 2007. Here we are five years later and such launches won't start until next year at the earliest. And NASA is certainly no stranger to mission delays – their James Webb Space Telescope was originally envision... |
Despite some postponement, SpaceX has already accomplished a lot. The company has built two rockets; the smaller Falcon 1 launch vehicle can take about 1,500 pounds to low-Earth orbit while its larger counterpart, the Falcon 9, can carry 23,000 pounds. (The Space Shuttle, in comparison, could launch slightly more than ... |
The Dragon capsule, which sits atop the Falcon 9 rocket, is the first reusable spacecraft built by a private company and should one day ferry supplies and crew to the International Space Station. SpaceX also has plans to develop the beefed-up Falcon Heavy rocket, which would be capable of bringing 120,000 pounds to spa... |

RJ is repping the City of Angles to the absolute fullest. The South Central rapper ups the new video for his track, "Want Me Broke." |
In the Kenneth Wynn-directed video, Mr. L.A. recaps an eventful day in his hometown. He starts off whipping a foreign through the city and participating in a celebrity basketball game with the likes of Nick Cannon, The Game, IAmSu, Big Boy and others. |
After hooping, he has a show at The Novo which is attended by dozens of L.A. rappers including ScHoolboy Q, Dom Kennedy, Casey Veggies, O.T. Genasis and others. Even the big homey Snoop Dogg makes a cameo. |
The turnt track resides on RJ's Mr. L.A. project, which dropped in May. |
RJ recently talked to XXL about his L.A. takeover, "I’m not trying to be the king, that’s not who I am—I am a king, but not reigning from a throne," he said. "It’s moreso like, I’m holding down the city, I’m holding down my hometown, and I’m doing it well. I feel like I’m one of the artists who’s got L.A. on his back. ... |

A worker loads a truck with corn in Pailin province last year. |
Export to Vietnam climbed more than 57 per cent year on year in the first quarter of 2012 as farmers looked for alternative destinations for products that went to Thailand last year. |
The primarily agricultural exports to Cambodia’s eastern neighbour were worth US$201.5 million, up from $127.7 million between January and March last year, data from the Vietnam Trade Office showed. |
A shrinkage in orders from Thailand this year had sent the Kingdom’s farmers looking for new markets, many of which were found in Vietnam, Chan Nora, Secretary of State at the Ministry of Commerce, said yesterday. |
“Our farmers sold their exports to Vietnam at any cost. They cannot wait for the products to spoil or be damaged,” he said, referring to delayed orders from Thailand. |
Thai restrictions on Cambodian products such as cassava were also reported this year. |
Industry insiders in Banteay Meanchey province said earlier this year half the province’s cassava had gone unharvested after Thai authorities imposed a ban on the crop, the Post reported in January. |
Cambodia’s main exports to Vietnam were seafood, corn, tobacco and rubber. Trade with Thailand and the shift to Vietnam caused instability in the market for Cambodians – something new trade deals with China were hoped to remedy. |
“Before long, our prices will be much more stable because we are getting direct export access to China without passing through a second country,” Chan Nora said. |
Cambodia and Vietnam will look to meet a $2 billion bilateral trade goal this year, and Tran Tu, Vietnam’s trade attaché in Cambodia, said the two countries were on track to meet that target. |
Vietnam Trade Office data shows bilateral trade between Cambodia and Vietnam rose 42.58 per cent to $919.1 million during the first quarter, compared with $644.6 million during the corresponding period last year. |
Imports from Vietnam dominated the relationship at about 78 per cent of bilateral trade, worth $717.6 million, data shows. |
Cambodia’s main imports from Vietnam were iron, steel, plastic products and garments. |
Our country is in trouble. That's the key takeaway from my experience as the undersecretary in the U.S. Department of Education. We have been inching along in math and science while other countries are speeding forward. The United States ranked 25th in math and 17th in science in the 2009 Program for International Stud... |
Education outcomes such as these mean our country's businesses will have a tough time finding American workers who have the math and science skills to carry out the jobs of today, much less tomorrow. A 2011 Manpower survey found that more than half of American employers were struggling to find workers to fill key jobs ... |
The prestigious President's Council of Advisors on Science and Technology, or PCAST, estimates that our country needs to graduate about 1 million more professionals in science, technology, engineering, and math over the next decade to stay competitive globally.

While African-Americans, Hispanics, and Native Americans make up a third of the U.S. population, they represent only 9.1 percent of college-educated Americans in the science and engineering workforce. Women are also severely lacking in the STEM workforce. Fewer than 10 percent of U.S. engineers are female, even though ... |
We've got a lot of work to do. Our country is just beginning to wake up to the fact that growth in STEM jobs is three times faster than in other sectors. Students who are facing the job search are getting the message that STEM workers earn 26 percent more on average than their non-STEM counterparts. What all students n... |
How can we get this done? The message from the statistics is clear: We've got to make math and science amazing and accessible for more young people. We've got to revitalize STEM studies for our country to grow and maintain its global economic standing. |
I have seen the phenomenal progress that the National Math and Science Initiative has made since it was launched in 2007 by leaders in business and science.

As the president and CEO of NMSI, I'm particularly heartened that qualifying scores for African-American and Hispanic students in the schools participating in our Advanced Placement program are averaging a 107 percent increase in AP math, science, and English the very first year.

Finally, the initiative is expanding the University of Texas' UTeach teacher-preparation program, which has recruited more than 6,000 high-achieving math and science college students into the teaching field at 35 universities across the country. And a new $21.25 million grant from the Howard Hughes Medical Institute wi... |
• Alejandra Munoz spoke no English when she arrived in Connecticut from Chile. She mastered eight AP courses and was accepted to the biomedical engineering program at the University of Connecticut. |
• Hannah Barber grew up loving horses and math in Oklahoma. When she's not tackling stats and calculus in NMSI's AP program in Oklahoma, you can find her volunteering in a wildlife refuge and a therapeutic-riding program. Her dream is to earn an engineering degree to improve the environment. |

There are millions more like Alejandra, Hannah, and Rudy who deserve a realistic shot at success. Our collective goal should be to reach them by taking these and other programs like them to the next level of expansion, to inspire more students, train more teachers, and transform more schools. We must work together now ... |

The New York Mets have reached a five-year, $137.5 million extension with ace Jacob deGrom, according to multiple reports. |
The deal will carry an average annual value of $27.5 million and has an opt-out after the 2022 season, according to Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic. |
DeGrom five-year, $137.5M deal with #Mets includes full no-trade clause, sources tell The Athletic. Gets opt-out after ‘22, same as Sale, even though he is a year further from free agency. Will earn $107M between now and opt-out, Sale, $105M. |
The deal comes just days after fellow Mets pitcher Noah Syndergaard called on the organization to sign the reigning NL Cy Young Award winner to an extension. |
"I think Jake's the best pitcher in baseball right now," Syndergaard said Sunday. "I think he deserves whatever amount he's worth. I want to keep him happy so when it does come time for him to reach free agency he stays on our side pitching for the Mets. |
"I think they should just quit all this fuss and pay the man already." |
DeGrom went 10-9 with a sparkling 1.70 ERA in 32 starts last year. Aces Chris Sale and Justin Verlander and sluggers Mike Trout and Paul Goldschmidt recently finalized new contracts. |
Syndergaard, 26, said failing to do the same with deGrom could send a message. |
"I think so, yes, because of what you see going on in baseball right now," he said. "I feel like if there wasn't a trend of other guys getting contract extensions, I don't know what the circumstance would be. |
"You see those guys getting extensions, I think it's time Jacob gets one, too. He's really good, a great teammate. I don't get it." |
A ninth-round pick of the Mets in 2010, deGrom has been pitching with the MLB club since 2014, posting a 55-41 record with a 2.67 ERA and a 1.072 WHIP. He was named Rookie of the Year in 2014 and has attended two All-Star games. |

Spokespeople for Clinton, Trump make their cases why their candidate is best for the Jewish State. |
“I think particularly for the Jewish community, this election has been a wakeup call - about some of the forces that still exist in this country that we, as a community, need to see," said Laura Rosenberger on behalf of the Clinton campaign. |
Regarding Israel, Rosenberg noted that Clinton has spoken "at length" about the Jewish State throughout her campaign. "Hillary has a long record, from her time as First Lady of Arkansas," she said. "She knows the depth and the connection between the American and Israeli people, she knows how much we can learn from each... |
A spokesman for the Trump campaign asked Jewish voters to look at the Republican platform on Israel in considering their candidate of choice. |
"The Republican platform, which could have never been enacted without the support of Donald Trump, is the most pro-Israel platform in the history of either party, in the history of this country," asserted David Friedman. "He has followed through with additional statements and more detailed policy points over the recent... |
