SRK has even invited pop icon Lady Gaga for the film's premiere and is trying to convince her to do a song for the film as well.
Not to forget international pop singer Akon has recorded song Chammak Challo for the superhero flick which has already become a rage online.
RA.One is being directed by Anubhav Sinha. The film also features Arjun Rampal in a negative avatar.
It will be releasing in 3D version and video game format as well.
The film is scheduled for a Diwali release.
There was a bizarre broadcasting moment at the end of Saturday’s Clemson-Notre Dame game when ESPN cut to its studio during the middle of Dabo Swinney’s postgame interview.
Whatever the case, we sure hope Harris dominated that game of Candy Crush.
Here is video of the full interview.
As part of an updated anti-theft policy announced by Motion Picture Association of America and the National Association of Theatre Owners, viewers can no longer carry along with them Google Glass, or any related wearable capable of recording, inside cinemas.
The new update comes as a measure to ensure zero-tolerance policy when dealing with movie recording inside the theatres.
Moviegoers will now have to hand over Google Glass-akin wearable gadgets or recording devices prior to entering the movie halls. They will also have to switch-off their devices before handing it over and shall be asked to leave if refusing to do so.
The update also mentions the smartphone usage inside cinemas and requests viewers to turn their mobiles to silent mode while inside. Theatre managers could alert law enforcement forces in the case of an indication of movie recording for further action to be taken.
The update though hasn’t mentioned the name of Google Glass specifically, brings in the ban to the range of wearables and recording devices concerned. Google hasn’t responded to the new update measures, but has mentioned areas of restrictions for cameras to be applicable for Google Glass earlier on.
Launched back in the month of May, Google Glass is powered with video recording capabilities of up to 720p quality and offers 16 GB storage space in the device for recording.
The videos can also be synced to smartphones or Google Cloud via wireless networking.
We've rounded up the 10 lightest laptops in several categories to help you take a load off.
Portability has always been an essential part of personal computing, with ultrabooks and tablets making personal computing ever more mobile. For anyone computing on the go, weight is a big part of the portability equation. Whether you're a student carrying your laptop around campus or a business user carrying it on your daily commute, a lighter laptop will make it easier for you to take your PC on the go.
Over the weeks and months that a laptop can be carried to and from work or school, even a half-pound difference can be a heavy load. The long-term effects of carrying a heavy laptop in a backpack or shoulder bag can include improper alignment of the shoulders and spine, pinched nerves in neck and shoulder, not to mention wearing you out every day of the week.
With every laptop we review in the PCMag Labs, there is a series of testing and measuring, gathering information on everything from processor performance to battery capacity. And it's not all benchmark tests and specs, either. We also measure and weigh every unit we review, allowing us to compare on size, shape and weight. To help you lighten you load with a new laptop, we've combed back through our recent reviews to find the 10 lightest laptops to come across our test bench.
While these laptops and tablets may not represent the best in performance or battery life, they are undeniably the lightest in their category. If your chiropractic needs outweigh your desire for the fastest processor and longest stamina, these PCs will do more than meet you half way, offering decent (and sometimes excellent) performance in featherweight packages. Some of these dainty systems cut weight by minimizing the size of the battery, while others utilize lightweight metals and plastics to shed ounces and pounds.
A dog died in a fire in West Hartford Monday morning and a family has been displaced.
The fire broke out in the basement of a split-level home in the 1100 block of North Main Street around 3 a.m.
The father woke up when smoke alarms went off, saw smoke coming from the kitchen and quickly gathered his family, including another adult and two older kids, and helped get them out safely.
The family's two pets were also inside, but one of the dogs didn't survive the blaze.
The family does have other family to stay with while their home is uninhabitable.
Officials said there is smoke damage to the entire home.
TEHRAN - Chief of Staff of the Iranian Armed Forces said on Sunday that withdrawal of U.S. forces from Syria is not a big issue while there are still many U.S. forces in the region.
“The U.S. pullout from Syria is not a significant action when there are many U.S. forces in the region,” Mohammad Baqeri said at a conference.
On December 19, President Donald Trump announced that U.S. troops had defeated the Daesh terrorists in Syria and he sought to pull some 2,000 U.S. troops out of Syria.
Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman Bahram Qassemi has welcomed Trump’s decision, saying the U.S. military presence in the Middle East fuels insecurity.
“Basically, U.S. forces’ arrival and presence in the region was a wrong, illogical, tension-provoking and crisis-inducing move from the outset, and has always been one of the key contributors to instability and insecurity in the region,” said Qassemi in a statement posted on the Foreign Ministry website on December 22.
Russia has also welcomed the decision by the U.S. to withdraw its forces from Syria, saying it creates prospects for a political settlement of the crisis there, the Russian Foreign Ministry said on December 19.
According to Reuters, the ministry also said that an initiative to form a Syrian constitutional committee had a bright future with the U.S. troop withdrawal.
Lake Havasu City police have identified five people killed by a man who entered a home in the Arizona community and started shooting, then fled with his two children.
Police say the alleged gunman, identified as 26-year-old Brian Diez, was found dead early Sunday in California of a self-inflicted gunshot wound and the two young children were safe with relatives.
Officers say they found 23-year-old Deborah Langstaff, 24-year-old Primo Verdone, 42-year-old Russell Nyland and 20-year-old Ashley Nyland dead and 20-year-old Brock Kelson and 44-year-old Deborah Nyland wounded at a Lake Havasu City home.
Police say Kelson later died at Havasu Regional Medical Center.
Lake Havasu City dispatchers received an emergency call late Saturday night from a woman who said an intruder had come into a home and shot several people.
British law enforcement officials say they're doing their best to cope with the possibility that the U.K. will crash out of the EU in 45 days.
Police officers will be able to use Britain's new International Crime Coordination Center, a national unit that authorities on Monday said has become fully operational. But policing chiefs warn that the center will not be as effective as the existing arrangements that the U.K. enjoys as a member of the European Union, including access to the EU's law enforcement intelligence agency, Europol.
The ICCC has been training a network of officers across the country who will be assisting police on a local level to use new tools.
"We have been working closely with the Home Office to prepare for all eventualities including losing access to current EU law enforcement tools. We have contingencies in place for each of the EU tools but they are not like-for-like replacements and will not be as efficient or effective as the tools we currently use," says Deputy Assistant Commissioner Richard Martin, the London Metropolitan Police's chief lead on international policing.
Nation-state divorce was bound to be messy. But the full extent of what U.K. police will forfeit looks to be substantial. All told, British police could lose access to 40 tools when the U.K. exits the EU.
To help cope, the IPCC was launched in September 2018 with £2 million ($2.6 million) in funding from the Home Office. It's been tasked with creating the very British-sounding "alternative mechanisms" that the country will require when it leaves the EU, losing access to such crime-fighting tools as the European Arrest Warrant.
Plans for the ICCC call for it to have about 50 police and civilian employees drawn from the National Crime Agency - the U.K.'s sister domestic law enforcement agency to the FBI - and national Criminal Records Office. A spokesman for the National Police Chiefs' Council, which coordinates national police operations, tells Information Security Media Group that the center is now fully staffed and continues to train officers to help on a local level. "The network of officers will be fully ready by the end of this month or start of next month - though many already are," he says.
The original plans for the office were drawn up with a "hard Brexit" in mind, in which the U.K. would leave the single market and the customs union via a 21-month transition. During that time, the country would, in theory, negotiate new agreements, potentially including the ability to access some existing police resources, albeit likely in a reduced capacity (see: Brexit: What's Next for Privacy, Policing, Surveillance?).
Last month, however, after two years of negotiations, including British threats to cancel security arrangements unless the EU gave it what it wanted, the House of Commons rejected by a historic margin Conservative Party Prime Minister Theresa May's deal with the EU.
Instead of a hard Brexit, the U.K. now continues to teeter on the edge of a no-deal Brexit.
If no deal is in place on March 29, "the U.K. would leave the EU and everything associated with that would come to an end," Simon Usherwood, a reader in politics at the University of Surrey, told i news.
"[No deal] doesn't stop the U.K. leaving but it means there is absolutely no clarity about what happens," he said.
May this week has returned to Brussels to continue the Brexit negotiations, demanding that the EU put a time limit, or "backstop," on a transition arrangement that would avoid a hard border between the Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland.
But the EU's chief negotiator, Michael Barnier, says the EU will not renegotiate piecemeal the agreement and political declaration that has already been made, and he said that something must give on the U.K. side.
Meanwhile, Brexit remains scheduled to occur on March 29, whether or not May's government secures a deal that passes Parliament's muster.
In the event of no deal, the EU will fall back onto existing Interpol arrangements, which are manual and would lead to a dramatic change in the speed of information access. For example, running criminal background checks on foreign nationals - to see if they have committed crimes in other countries - would jump from six days to an estimated 66 days.
"We are prepared for the worst-case scenario, as the public would expect," Martin says. "Forces will be ready to respond to the challenges a no-deal EU exit would bring but we continue to hope a deal that protects vital data-sharing and cooperation is reached - it is in the interests of both U.K. and EU citizens."
Schengen Information System: This EU-wide IT system enables member states to share real-time information about wanted or missing people. U.K. law enforcement officers accessed the database 539 million times in 2017.
European Arrest Warrant: The EAW framework facilitates the extradition of suspects between EU member states to face prosecution. In 2017 and 2018, more than 1,400 suspects were arrested in the EU on an EAW and about 180 were returned to the U.K. Barnier has said the U.K. will lose all access to the EAW following Brexit.
European Criminal Records Information System: ECRIS enables EU member states to exchange criminal conviction information. "Currently criminal record checks with member states take six days on average, whereas the average outside the EU is 66 days," according to the Met.
Europol: The U.K. currently works closely with the other 27 EU member states via the EU's law enforcement intelligence agency, Europol, as well as its European Cybercrime Center, or EC3. Europol has coordinated a number of operations, including those related to cybercrime gangs and disruptions, and has notched up some impressive arrests in its relatively short existence. In 2017, the U.K. shared more than 47,000 messages with Europol and helped support over 130 investigation teams.
Martin has said that 70 percent of "transient organized crime groups" operate in three or more countries. But post-Brexit, cross-border policing operations would also be interrupted or operate at reduced capacity (see: Police Arrest €10 Million IOTA Cryptocurrency Theft Suspect).
While these warnings might seem stark, they are not new.
With a Brexit deal, the U.K. would likely continue to work with Europol at a downgraded status, participating as an associate. In theory, it could also negotiate agreements with the EU that still allowed it to exchange data on alleged terrorists and other criminals, extradite suspects arrested in Europe to the U.K. and collaborate on cross-border arrangements.
In the event of a no-deal Brexit, however, it looks like few if any of those capabilities would be in place or at least accessible in a rapid manner. Whatever alternatives the ICCC creates also remain unproven.
The facility, known as crisis intervention center or the Behavior Health Urgent Care Center, is planned to open in two years.
The Johnson County jail-alternative structure could be open in two years, the project manager said.
The facility, known as a crisis intervention center or access center, would provide treatment for patients experiencing substance abuse or mental health crises as an alternative to jail or a hospital bed. The structure is planned to be constructed in southern Iowa City.
"That's a pretty good target," project manager Matt Miller said.
He emphasized that if all runs as expected, they hope to begin construction in summer or fall of 2019. He said the building could take between 12 to 18 months to construct.
"This isn't a massive building," Chairperson for the Johnson County Board Mike Carberry said. "They could complete construction in a year."
Miller mentioned multiple items that needed to be done over the next year including completing the rezoning, designing facility plans, deciding where the building would be located and sending out bids for contractors, among others.
Johnson County Supervisors voted last month to approve the purchase of the 5.34 acres at 270 Southgate Ave. for the access center. The agreement with Kennedy's LLC is for five different parcels of land that sit south of Carousel Preowned on Stevens Drive and southwest of the Waterfront Drive Hy-vee.
The Iowa City Planning and Zoning Commission filed the project's rezoning application Monday, Miller said. He said the land is currently a commercial property and they're requesting neighborhood public zoning.
Although they don't have facility plans designed, Miller said they have started discussing the number of beds in each wing. At the moment, they're planning four to five beds each for the detox, crisis stabilization and crisis observation wings. In addition, he said they are considering a growing population when it comes to the building size and capacity for beds.
The center is also expected to have a sobering unit with a 10-person capacity and a winter shelter in a separate building next door.
The Graham Kerr Cookbook: The Galloping Gourmet, by London-born Graham Kerr, first came out in 1966.
NEW YORK — Graham Kerr is having a group of guests over to his home so he’s decided to whip up a batch of his Farmhouse Vegetable Soup.
It calls for a blended medley of carrots, onions, garlic, parsnips, sweet potato and onion. The recipe is from his groundbreaking the Graham Kerr Cookbook and it’s tried-and-true — he’s been making it for more than 50 years, for royalty and commoner alike.
The dish is also a way to chart the remarkable life of Kerr, who began as an energetic TV pioneer with a love of clarified butter on the Galloping Gourmet, swung dramatically toward health food after dealing with tragedy and now embraces a middle path embracing nourishment and delight.
That his soup has endured from late-1960s ham and hedonism to today’s Pilates and probiotics is a testament to the strong architecture of the recipe. That strength has prompted publisher Rizzoli to re-publish Kerr’s 52-year-old cookbook this spring.
“This book is close to my heart because it’s a method of cooking which is good. You only need to change the ingredients and the weight of some of them and it works just as well today as it did 52 years ago,” Kerr said from his home in Washington state.
The book came out in 1966, several years before Kerr first leapt over a chair on the Galloping Gourmet. Some of the ingredients have not aged well — toheroa, a green clam from New Zealand, is almost extinct — but Kerr’s clear and concise methods for everything from carving chicken to poaching fish are timeless. He included three types of measurements for every recipe — grams, ounces and cups.
He taught basic preparations for sauces and meats and then offered readers ways of building on them. The reissue includes new archive photos — including remarkably small-looking chickens by our standards today — and charming handwritten commentary from Kerr.
Cookbook authors Matt and Ted Lee are behind the push to reissue forgotten culinary gems and they were stunned to find so much still relevant in the Graham Kerr Cookbook.
“He’s really expressing a very enlightened way about food, the likes of which American culture wouldn’t see expressed in popular culture for 40 years,” Matt Lee said, citing Kerr’s embrace of using meats nose-to-tail, his thriftiness and attentiveness to food waste by using the whole vegetable.
Lee also credited Kerr’s book — along with Julia Child and James Beard — with empowering home chefs at a time when the culinary world was cloistered. “This was to empower you to take these techniques to whatever protein or vegetable that you may encounter,” he said. Kerr even went further — he encouraged readers not to obey his recipes to the letter.
Kerr, 84, was born in London to a hotel-manager father. He grew up living on the property and eating meals in the restaurant before the customers arrived. He was trained in the French culinary traditions at college and briefly became manager of the Royal Ascot Hotel in London.
In 1958, Kerr moved to New Zealand, where he was named chief catering adviser for the Royal New Zealand Air Force. His break into television occurred two years later — courtesy of an injury.
The air force was going to film a live TV segment with a physical-education instructor, but he sprained an ankle. Kerr was ordered — “I said no and they said:‘This is an order,’ ” he recalls — to do something on-air. So he did something basic. He cooked eggs.
That eventually led him to gallop: Kerr and his producer wife, Treena, moved to Canada and created a cooking show that showed off Kerr’s charisma and humour on the Galloping Gourmet, which ran from 1969-71 and reached 200 million viewers around the world each week.
On the show, Kerr would cook in a suit coat, tie and a colorful shirt or a tuxedo, mixing Monty Python-esque humour with a generous helping of innuendo and a splash of video clips of exciting food places around the world.
The tall and handsome chef was liberal with glugs of sherry and his use of egg whites. His dishes often boiled over or he spilled ingredients and he invited audience members up to cook with him. His humour got him an invitation to The Tonight Show with Johnny Carson in 1970.
A car crash in 1971 left Kerr and his wife badly injured. While they recuperated, the family sailed the world. When Treena suffered a heart attack in 1986, her husband reformed his culinary ways and tried to wring as much fat, salt and sugar out of his recipes as possible.
“I did go through a phase in my life when everything started with ‘b’ — it was brown rice and bulgur and barley — and it really tasted like the backside of the moon, whatever that must taste like,” he said.
These days, he loves local cheese and vegetables and lamb loin, and makes porridge with local fruit, nonfat Greek yogurt, skim milk — and a splash of hazelnut creamer (“I would never tell anyone except you,” he says, conspiratorially.) Now a widower, he loves to share his culinary skills with friends and strangers alike.

It’s Infrastructure Week, the annual spotlight on the nation’s roads and bridges. During a week’s worth of discussion, a lot will be said about the need to update and repair existing infrastructure as well as build from scratch what will be needed to carry transportation into the future.
To be sure, some of the topics will be long range. But there is plenty of near-term need — and opportunity — to make improvements now.
For proof, look no further than this issue of Transport Topics. On the pages that follow, you’ll find a special section dedicated to ongoing work to help ease congestion in Nevada and an exploration of one of the state’s trouble spots. TT staff reporters headed west from our Virginia offices to cover these stories firsthand, providing a deep dive into the kind of challenges that both accompany and necessitate major infrastructure projects.
Many of those challenges will be front-and-center this week; among the issues on the Infrastructure Week docket are the degree to which equipment makers rely on the nation’s infrastructure to keep goods moving; the latest on autonomous technology; and an update on the Trump administration’s proposal to streamline the permitting process for project approvals.
While this last item backs up a promise the president made to help cut red tape that can slow progress on infrastructure projects, the admission last week by the White House that movement on Trump’s sweeping 10-year, $1.5 trillion infrastructure proposal likely won’t happen this year was disheartening. While not a surprise — it’s accepted D.C. wisdom that the effort likely will hold until at least the midterm elections — to hear it from the podium in the White House press office was a bit deflating.
