KHAMGAON, India – Pork rinds. Dried squirrel. Spicy fish eggs. Dalit Kitchens of Marathwada is part anthology, part cookbook and part rebuke to readers, who may presume Indian food is largely vegetarian. It tells of the culinary traditions of two groups of Dalits, known as Mang and Mahar. Dalits, broadly, occupy the lowest rungs of South Asia's ancient caste system and were once known as untouchables. They also form a sizable minority: around a fifth to a quarter of India's estimated 1.4 billion people. Yet this is a rare book, perhaps the first published in English about Dalit culinary traditions by a person of Dalit caste. There's a simple reason for that, says author Shahu Patole, a 62-year-old retired civil servant and a Dalit. "To upper-caste Hindus," Patole says, "we were not even humans. We were slaves." Dalit food, Patole says, was not considered worthy of being documented. We spoke to Patole in his childhood home, in the hinterlands of the western Indian state of Maharashtra, on the fringes of Khamgaon village — because Dalits were once forced to build their homes away from upper-caste Hindus so they didn't pollute their spaces. The first recipe: Blood The book is not for the fainthearted. The first recipe is simply titled, Blood. The method: boil blood – of any animal – until it's the color of dark chocolate and has the consistency of firm tofu. "Hot rakti tastes delicious when eaten immediately after cooking," Patole advises. The next recipe advises readers to mash the cooked blood by hand to give it the texture of firm tofu, add spice and onions fried in animal fat. Garnish with coriander. "How many people think about Indian food when they think about mashed blood?" asks Krishnendu Ray, professor of food studies at New York University. In a review, he described Dalit Kitchens of Marathwada "as arguably the most important cookbook to come out of South Asia." The book, he says, "undermines this peculiar one dimensional understanding of Indian food [being] rich in spices, low in meat." Ray says, "we know very little about Dalit cooking" because the idea of what Indians eat largely comes from upper-caste Hindus, including Brahmins, who sit at the apex of South Asia's caste hierarchy. Traditionally, they're largely vegetarian. Ray says upper-caste Hindus dominate publishing houses that commission cookbooks and media houses that create cooking shows. In that context, Ray says the book is "dynamite that explodes the idea of Indian food from the bottom up." Much has changed for Dalits since India won its independence more than seven decades ago. India's constitution was penned by a Dalit intellectual, known as Babasaheb Bhimrao Ambedkar CQ. He helped enshrine quotas for Dalits in government jobs, education and legislature, although critics argue those quotas are not fairly or fully allotted. Ambedkar was also from Maharashtra, where there's a long tradition of Dalit activism. It's no coincidence that Patole's book also comes from this place, says Farha Ternikar, professor of sociology at Lemoyne College in Syracuse, N.Y. "It's a result of the activism over the last few decades around trying to increase Dalit visibility, but also, Dalit culture." Yet the Dalit community in India is among India's most marginalized and has long faced severe discrimination. They dominate industries involved in waste collection, disposing of corpses and carcasses. Even in his own village, Patole says, other residents still refuse to eat food prepared by Dalits. Cooking like his grandmother Food he warmly recalls his grandmother making for him, like a meat and offal stew he prepares for us on a steamy June day. Patole heads to a market town to buy leafy greens, then trudges down a muddy road lined with butcher shops, each a hole-in-the-wall, run by Muslim men – the Indian minority dominates the butchery trade. Patole has a favorite: a seemingly-indistinguishable closet-sized nook filled out by an enormous buffalo carcass hooked from a roof rafter, its skin hanging on a wall hook. A plastic partition offers little resistance to the buzzing flies. Patole requests rib cuts, liver, still hanging in the carcass and intestines. The butcher hacks off the cuts, dices them on a block and pops them into a black plastic bag that hides the meat. Patole says that's partly so shoppers can conceal their caste identity – typically only lower-caste Hindus eat red meat. It is also good manners, because the sight of cut-up flesh can offend vegetarian Hindus. It also sidesteps the danger posed by Hindu extremists. Over the past decade, they've beaten and lynched Muslims and Dalits they suspect of carrying cow flesh – beef – an animal sacred to many Hindus. But Muslims, and Dalits, traditionally, have eaten beef. "These shops were called 'beef hotels,'" he says, because they only sold one thing. The butcher nervously assures us he's only selling buffalo meat. Patole sighs. Buffalo doesn't taste as good as beef, he says. Back in Patole's kitchen, he heats up a pot. He adds oil, apologizing that he couldn't source rendered animal fat, which his community traditionally used for cooking. Patole throws in salt, turmeric, garlic and ginger. He says Dalits were traditionally too poor to use these spices. Now he buys them pre-mashed in a packet. Patole's mother, Gunabai Patole, swishes the meat and organ cuts in water, washing off dust and grime. The meat cuts sizzle as Patole browns them off. He speeds up the cooking time by transferring the mix into a pressure cooker. Within minutes, he presents us with a rich brown stew. Patole mops it up with a traditional flatbread made of millets that his mother freshly prepared on a griddle. Why he wrote the book Patole says his book was published nine years ago in his native language, Marathi, through friends he made in the publishing industry. "Few took note of it," he says of local Indian media. Then the global publishing house HarperCollins issued an English translation this summer. Still, Patole says, no other Indian publisher has approached him to make a version in any other local language, like Hindi. But he says, his book isn't intended to educate upper-caste folk. It's to help fellow Dalits shake off "a sense of shame that they are eating something wrong." Partly, he says, that's because the dominant Indian culture values vegetarianism as pure — and eating meat as lowly — a bias he angrily tackles in his book. "Vegetarian groups consider themselves superior even today," he writes. He asks: How many vegetarians "sweat in the fields?" Indian vegetarians, he says, come from castes that do not do manual labor. Patole's words can feel shocking to those in the West, where the conversation about eating meat revolves around ethics: the cruelty of animal slaughter and the environmental cost of raising animals for meat. In India, there is a different conversation, which revolves around status, caste and meat. It's something Yashica Dutt, the author of Coming Out As Dalit, has thought about deeply. "You grow up eating a certain kind of animal, a certain type of meat or just meat in general, and you are associated with being lower caste or being impure." Growing up, Dutt's family pretended they were upper-caste. Her mother didn't want Dutt to be raised with the stigma of being known as a Dalit of the Bhangi sub-caste, whose people were long compelled to remove excrement from latrine pits. She says other Dalit sub-castes were expected to dispose animal carcasses, because corpses are seen as impure. Living in poverty, the same Dalits often stripped down and ate those deceased animals for sustenance. That stigma lingers, but more than that, Dutt says "because our entire being is considered impure – the food we eat is also considered impure." So for many Dalits, their food evokes mixed feelings: comfort, but also shame. "Joy cannot be separated from the oppression that we experience," Dutt says. "It's always going to be congealed together." Back in Patole's kitchen, he says he wants his book to raise questions for fellow Dalits: "Why were you forced to eat this sort of food in the first place?" he says, like dead animals, offal, mashed blood. But he also hopes they'll see their food traditions as a product of tenacity, survival. "You're alive today because your ancestors ate it then," he says of other Dalits. "Otherwise you'd not be here." Patole says he's pleased to have written the book if only as a "middle finger" to upper-caste Hindus who find him, his caste and his food disgusting. "That's what we ate, still eat — and I will continue to do so." Recipes from "Dalit Kitchens of Marathwada" by Shahu Patole Translated by: Bhushan Korgaonkar Wajadi (intestines) Wajadi is not necessarily liked by everyone. Even amongst those who like it, some people prefer only the part that looks like a Turkish towel while others prefer the part that looks like a honeycomb. The preparation of wajadi depended on ingredients available in the household. Ingredients - Thoroughly washed and cleaned wajadi, chopped - Salt - Turmeric - Ginger-garlic paste or in pieces, whatever is available (optional) - Green coriander, chopped Method - Heat a pan or wok and put in the chopped wajadi. Wajadi has fat, so it does not need added fat or oil. - Add salt and turmeric and mix. Add the ginger-garlic pieces or paste if desired. - Cook, while stirring, for an hour and a half. - Add as much hot water as desired and cook a little longer. For those who like it plain, the dish is ready. - For a spicier version, add any other spices you like and cook a little longer. - Garnish with coriander and serve. Moholachi poli (honeycomb) Large wild bees are extremely aggressive. Their hive is known as agyamohol. Agya means fiery and mohol means hive. No one would usually dare to touch these hives as the bee attacks are brutal and strings acutely agonizing. But people would eat the hives of smaller bees. There are two main types of smaller bees: lavangi (fiery like clove) and kagadi (thin like paper). Lavangi bees look slightly reddish. They make their hives in the open. These bees are aggressive too and sting the attackers. That's why people cover their faces and create smoke to chase off the bees before touching these hives. Kagadi bees are darker but otherwise look like lavangi bees. They are not as aggressive and so they build their hives in comparatively inaccessible locations. These bees fly away even with the smoke of regular bidis and cigarettes. There was a delicacy made from the hives of both these types of bees. One can easily spot the three sections of the hive. A puffed-up pod attached to the branch or an external object, which stores honey, the next part below it contains eggs and larvae and the last part is work in progress. The bigger the pod, the more the honey. The first part is used for extracting honey, the second part is used as a delicacy and the third part would be given to dogs. It was said that the dogs went a bit bonkers after eating it. Ingredients - Honeycomb containing larvae and eggs (Editor's note: honeycomb is sold commercially in the U.S. but without the larvae and eggs) - Oil or fat - Onions, chopped - Red chili powder - Salt Method - Cut the honeycomb into small pieces - Heat a little oil in a pan and fry onions till brown - Add chili powder and salt, mix. - Add the honeycomb pieces, saute a little. Cover and reduce heat to low. - Let it cook for a while. Serve. This honeycomb preparation tastes perfect with jowar bhakri. It is tasty and nutritious. It should be eaten hot as it is high in wax and protein. It gets stuck in the mouth if eaten cold, just like animal fat. This dish has a distinct "hot n' sweet" taste. Chigur (flowers of tamarind) Chigur or tamarind flowers were eaten, too. The tamarind tree blossoms copiously. There were usually a few trees in or near the village on common lands, which were accessible to everyone. Chigur goes well with red lentils. This sour dal tastes good. Ingredients - Oil - Onions, chopped - Red lentils - Red chili powder or chopped green chilies - Salt - Chigur Method - Heat oil in a tava or pan - When it is hot, add the chopped onion. Stir. - Add the red lentils, red chili powder or green chilis and salt to taste. - Add the chigur and saute it for a while. Sprinkle some water, cover and lower the heat. Let it cool.

Miley Cyrus Comfortable Being Naked Pop star Miley Cyrus, who has stripped for her new track "Wrecking ball", says she is comfortable being naked. Pop star Miley Cyrus, who has stripped for her new track "Wrecking ball", says she is comfortable being naked. The 20-year-old appears completely nude in her new track, reports contactmusic.com. "I'm very confident being naked...I feel that stripping off is a way of expressing purity of emotion," Event quoted her as saying. The singer was criticised for her raunchy bikini-clad performance at the MTV Video Music Awards and she has hit back at critics for searching too hard for a reason behind her behaviour. "People try to make everything so thought out when sometimes there's no real reason why. My fans love the fact that everything I'm doing is my choice. It's my body. I want what I do to be memorable and so do my fans - I'm just living, just being," Cyrus said. IANS

I understand that most people are not interested in the dynamics of financial markets and government finances. They are more concerned about the cost of living, the deterioration of public services and the effect of taxation on their quality of life. France is going through a phase where politicians and economic analysts argue that, like the rest of Europe, the country is becoming more ungovernable. French ruling politicians manoeuvre to retain their power while their adversaries in opposition plan the next move to bring down the government. So, does it really matter whether France is going through a crisis? French governments, like in Italy, are used to living beyond their means. France’s current fiscal problems did not come out of the blue. The deficit has been below the three per cent of GDP in only three of the last 22 years, as successive governments have put off structural reforms. So the outgoing prime minister’s attempt to take relatively drastic action to reverse the growing fiscal deficits and debt trend was always unlikely to succeed. This is one reason why so many EU member states languish in low growth, high unemployment or underemployment, high inflation, and growing electoral discontent with traditional political parties. When economic structural reforms are postponed for too long, it becomes almost impossible to put things right, even when it becomes evident that a country has its back against the wall. France, like Germany and Italy, are also too big to fail. Unlike Greece and Portugal in the last financial crisis of 2008, France is not running a current account deficit – importing more than exporting. According to French Budget Minister Laurent Saint-Martin, it is running what many analysts consider an unsustainable fiscal deficit that may reach seven per cent in 2025. The EU is very good at making tight regulations. However, it often fails to apply them when they affect the larger member states like France. So, do not expect the European Commission or the ECB to come down on France like the proverbial ton of bricks. In a recent press conference, ECB president Christine Lagarde was asked whether she was worried about the French crisis. She quickly responded: “I will not talk about individual countries.” To her credit, Lagarde has improved her communication skills since one of her last gaffes in 2020 when she said that it was not the ECB’s role to “close the spread” in sovereign debt markets – referring to the gap between Italian and German bond yields that is a key risk indicator for Italy. When economic structural reforms are postponed for too long, it becomes almost impossible to put things right, even when it becomes evident that a country has its back against the wall So we should not expect any sanctions from the European Commission or the ECB if the French crisis continues too long. As the former commission president Jean-Claude Juncker once argued, France can flout existing deficit rules and avoid sanctions “parce que c’est la France” – because it is France. Still, financial markets often react to worsening political and economic events with some delay. So far, there have been no market movements and no signs of panic because there was no element of surprise. At the time of writing, the CAC 40 actually rose following the vote of no confidence in the French parliament. Despite the massive and growing French deficit, France’s financial basics are in good shape. However, things can change suddenly. Ken Wattret, the S&P Global Market Intelligence vice president, warns that the crisis will continue for quite some time. So far, the financial markets’ response to it has been relatively benign, but the reaction could worsen the longer it continues. In the short term, the failure of the French parliament to approve the 2025 budget will not have an immediate impact on the government’s finances or ordinary people’s lives. There is no real risk of a US-style government shutdown. The new French prime minister can adopt a special law allowing the state to effectively carry over the previous year’s budget until a new one is adopted. For most French people, the complexities of the EU fiscal rules have no impact on their behaviour. They will continue to get on with the business of making ends meet. The longer EU member states delay the necessary economic and political reforms, the more difficult it will be for the Union to deliver on its promises for stronger economic growth, investment in new technologies and upgrading its defence framework. Sadly, the economic and political challenges that France and Germany face threaten the EU’s cohesion at a time when the need for governance reforms is most urgent.

Dhaka [Bangladesh], December 16 (ANI): Vijay Diwas celebrations in Bangladesh's capital, Dhaka have started with a 31 gun salute at sunrise. Six guns of an artillery regiment of the Bangladesh Army saluted the bravehearts who sacrificed their lives in the Bangladesh Liberation War by firing 31 rounds of cannon. Vijay Diwas for the 1971 Liberation War is celebrated on December 16, to commemorate India's victory against Pakistan in the 13-day war, which ended with Pakistan signing the instrument of surrender in Dhaka and the subsequent liberation of Bangladesh (erstwhile East Pakistan). On December 16, 1971, Pakistan's Armed Forces Chief General Amir Abdullah Niazi surrendered along with 93,000 soldiers before the Indian Army and the Mukti Bahini of Bangladesh. India and Bangladesh will jointly commemorate the 53rd anniversary of Vijay Diwas of the 1971 India-Pakistan war today, with the annual exchange of war veterans and serving officers. Eight Indian war veterans and two serving officers of the Indian Armed Forces have arrived in Dhaka to commemorate Bangladesh's Victory Day celebrations. Similarly, eight distinguished Muktijoddhas (freedom fighters) and two serving officers of the Bangladesh Armed Forces also reached India to participate in the Vijay Diwas celebrations in Kolkata today, the Indian Army said on Sunday. On the eve of Vijay Diwas, President Droupadi Murmu attended an 'At-Home' reception at Army House, hosted by Chief of Army Staff General Upendra Dwivedi. Vice President Jagdeep Dhankhar, Defence Minister Rajnath Singh, and Chief of Defence Staff General Anil Chauhan were also present for the occasion.

WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. (AP) — President-elect Donald Trump announced Saturday that he's picked longtime foreign policy adviser Richard Grenell to serve as an envoy for special missions, tasking him with helping the incoming administration deal with some of the toughest foreign policy challenges. Grenell served as ambassador to Germany during Trump's first administration, special presidential envoy for Serbia and Kosovo peace negotiations, and did a stint as acting director of national intelligence. He was also a contender to serve as secretary of state, but Trump opted to nominate Florida Sen. Marco Rubio. "Ric will work in some of the hottest spots around the World, including Venezuela and North Korea," Trump said in a posting on his social media platform, Truth Social, announcing the appointment. Grenell during Trump's first term developed a reputation for employing a sometimes contentious approach to diplomacy that rankled allies and the foreign policy establishment in Washington. But his style was appreciated by the president-elect who sees value in blunt talk with allies. Grenell remained close to Trump after he left office in 2021, serving at times as a key adviser on foreign policy. He was in the room when Trump met with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy in September. Grenell has advocated for a peace deal that would preserve Ukraine's territory while still allowing for "autonomous regions" where Russia could remain in control. He's also advised against expanding NATO to include Ukraine, saying — as Trump has — that the alliance shouldn't grow until current members meet the alliance's defense spending targets. Members of the transatlantic alliance have committed for years to spending 2% of their GDP on defense, but several countries still fall short of the target. He was an early supporter of Trump's 2024 campaign and held multiple events for the Republican nominee focused on economics and national security. Speaking at the Republican National Convention, Grenell echoed Trump's mantra that "it's time to put America first" on the global stage and argued that China and Russia saw President Joe Biden's administration as weak. Trump raised concerns among some allies during the 2024 campaign when he said he would not defend NATO members that failed to meet defense spending targets, and warned he would "encourage" Russia "to do whatever the hell they want" to alliance countries that he considered "delinquent." Grenell has downplayed Trump's criticisms of NATO and said the only talk of leaving the alliance altogether "was really from the media." "What we're saying is, don't come to the wedding without a gift," Grenell said. Grenell was part of the Trump campaign's outreach to Arab American voters in Michigan, where the president-elect made gains with a traditionally Democratic constituency despite his history of banning immigration from several majority-Muslim countries. Grenell orchestrated pro-Trump events with Arab American voters, including a May meeting held in Troy, Michigan. A U.S. spokesman at the United Nations during the George W. Bush administration, Grenell, like many other Republicans, has his own history of criticizing Trump before embracing him. Once an adviser to GOP moderates like 2012 presidential nominee Mitt Romney and a supporter of gay marriage, Grenell, who is openly gay, deleted social media posts blasting Trump as "reckless" and "dangerous" once the former reality TV star became the Republican nominee in 2016. Trump also announced Saturday that he's appointing Devin Nunes, the chief executive officer of the president-elect's Truth Social platform, to head a presidential advisory board that will keep tabs on the U.S. intelligence community. Nunes will continue leading Trump Media & Technology Group. Trump is the company's largest shareholder. The former California lawmaker chaired the House Intelligence Committee and was one of Trump's closest allies in Congress during the president-elect's first term. Copyright 2024 NPR

John Abraham: Will Not Host Any TV Show Actor-producer John Abraham says right he is not thinking about switching from the big to the small screen because he believes movies are the right platform for him. Actor-producer John Abraham says right he is not thinking about switching from the big to the small screen because he believes movies are the right platform for him. John has made appearances on TV shows like "Kaun Banega Crorepati" and "Indian Idol" to promote films, but he is not thinking about taking up any TV assignment. "No, I will not host (any show on TV). I am not interested in going on the small screen as of now. I don't have any desire to go there," John said in an interview. "I am fit for the large screen and I will stay there," he added. After a successful career as a model and actor, John ventured into film production with "Vicky Donor", which received a fantastic response from both the audience as well as the critics. His second production venture "Madras Cafe", in which he played the lead role, too won lots of appreciation. Now, John is busy with another production, tentatively titled "Hamara Bajaj". His acting assignments include "Welcome Back" and "Dostana 2". IANS

The United States has made "direct contact" with the Syrian rebel group Hayat Tahrir al-Sham, U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken said during a press conference in Aqaba, Jordan on Saturday. "We've been in contact with HTS and with other parties," Blinken said, referring to the rebels who drove Syrian President Bashar al-Assad from power in a lightning offensive earlier this month. Blinken referred to those discussions as "direct contact." He did not elaborate on details of the talks, but did acknowledge that the U.S. has "impressed upon everyone we've been in contact with" the importance of helping to find the missing American journalist Austin Tice, who disappeared near Damascus 12 years ago. Blinken's comments mark the first time a U.S. official has acknowledged contact with HTS. The Islamist group was once affiliated with al-Qaida, and while it has sought to strike a more moderate tone in recent years, the U.S. still regards it as a terrorist organization — a designation given to the group in May 2018. Blinken, who was in Jordan meeting with leaders about Syria's future, said the U.S. and its partners "agreed on a set of shared principles to guide our support for Syria and its people going forward." The U.S. and its partners also agreed to several factors, Blinken said, including that the transition process in the Syrian government should be "Syrian-led and Syrian-owned," citizens should have access to humanitarian aid and that the country "should not be used as a base for terrorist groups or others." "We know that what happens inside of Syria can have powerful consequences well beyond its borders, from mass displacement to terrorism. And we know that we can't underestimate the challenges of this moment and in the weeks and months ahead," he said. "Our message to the Syrian people is this: We want them to succeed and we're prepared to help them do so." During an interview last week, the HTS leader, Ahmed al-Shara, formerly known by his nom de guerre, Abu Mohmmad al-Jolani, sought to allay concerns about Syria's future under HTS leadership. He said fears by other countries "are unnecessary" and was hopeful that Syria "will be rebuilt." "People are exhausted from war. So the country isn't ready for another one and it's not going to get into another one," he told Sky News. "The source of our fears was from the Iranian militias, Hezbollah and the regime which committed the massacres we are seeing today. So their removal is the solution for Syria. The current situation won't allow for a return to panic." Copyright 2024 NPR

Indian tabla player Zakir Hussain — who united musicians from diverse cultures and by doing so, shaped modern world music — died on Sunday in San Francisco. He was 73. In a statement, his family said the cause of death was idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis. "His prolific work as a teacher, mentor and educator has left an indelible mark on countless musicians. He hoped to inspire the next generation to go further. He leaves behind an unparalleled legacy as a cultural ambassador and one of the greatest musicians of all time," his family added. Hussain's career spanned over five decades, during which he was revered as both a national treasure in India and admired worldwide. He defied genres and collaborated with an impressive range of musicians, including jazz saxophonist Charles Lloyd, bluegrass artists Edgar Meyer and Béla Fleck, as well as rockstars George Harrison and Van Morrison. His versatility earned him the rare distinction of performing twice on NPR's Tiny Desk — once in 2010 and then in 2023. "You know, you come from India and you say, 'OK, I'm representing a 3,000-year-old history,' so you think you're gonna teach the world about rhythms and drums and so on," he told NPR in 2015. "And then you arrive here. You suddenly realize that you know nothing. You're just one little dot in the painting that is the music of the universe." Beyond his performances, Hussain was admired for his passion to teaching Indian drumming, further spreading appreciation for the art form. Hussain often said that his musical journey began soon after he was born in Bombay. In the 2015 NPR interview, he recalled a tradition where a father whispers a prayer into his newborn son's ear. Instead, his father chose to sing him rhythms. "My mother was very upset and said, 'Why are you doing this?' And he said, 'Because this is my prayer,'" Hussain said. He told NPR that it was his father's dream for him to carry on the tradition of being an Indian classical musician. His father, Alla Rakha, was considered one of the world's greatest player's of tabla, a centuries-old Indian hand drum. His father taught Hussain how to play the tabla when he was 7 years old. But his father also introduced Hussain to music from around the world, which is how Hussain fell in love with rock and Western music. "I was the only kid on the block who was walking down the street with a boombox on my shoulder, playing as loud as I could 'Light My Fire,'" Hussain recalled. In 1970, at 19, Hussain traveled to the U.S. where he spent the following years working with rockstars like George Harrison, Van Morrison and Mickey Hart, the drummer from The Grateful Dead. He also played with jazz musician John Handy. In 1973, Hussain formed the Indian jazz fusion band Shakti with jazz guitarist John McLaughlin. With its melodic and rhythm instruments, the band helped American listeners appreciate sounds and instruments beyond Western music. In 2024, Hussain became the first musician from India to receive three Grammy awards in the same year after Shakti won Best Global Music Album, and Hussain's collaboration with Edgar Meyer and Béla Fleck featuring Rakesh Chaurasia won Best Global Music Performance and Best Contemporary Instrumental Album. Hussain told NPR in 2015 that throughout the course of his career, he has found similarities between rhythmists around the world — regardless of approach or style. "We were all on the same wavelength, the same quest, looking for perfection, which we will never find. But that didn't matter because it's all about the journey — not the goal," he said. NPR's Felix Contreras contributed reporting. Copyright 2024 NPR

Seoul/New Delhi, December 16: Hyundai AutoEver, the information technology affiliate of Hyundai Motor Group, said on Monday it has established a joint venture in Indonesia to develop navigation maps for the Southeast Asian country and many others in the region. The new firm, named Terra Link Technologies, has been jointly established with India's MapmyIndia, according to the South Korean company. The joint venture will focus on developing high-quality automotive navigation maps for Indonesia, Thailand, Vietnam, the Philippines, Malaysia and Singapore, reports Yonhap news agency. Hyundai AutoEver said Southeast Asia is experiencing rapid economic growth accompanied by a sharp rise in vehicle demand, which is driving increased demand for in-vehicle navigation systems.

The prospect of tariffs in the new Trump administration is dividing businesses around the country. Some are scrambling to avoid the potential import taxes or preparing to pass the cost on to their customers. Others, however, are welcoming tariffs as a defense against foreign competition. Here's a look at how three businesses are bracing for the tariffs. The domestic manufacturer Mark McClelland is in the pro-tariff camp. If you've ever sat in the bleachers to watch a high school football game, you may have come in contact with McClelland's product. His company, Tower Extrusions, manufactures bleacher seats and thousands of other aluminum products. "Think of a big Play-Doh machine," McClelland says of the manufacturing process. "We take a log of aluminum and push it through a die in the shape of some form." McClelland's business, based in Olney, Texas, operates eleven aluminum presses, cranking out bleachers, window frames, car parts and more. "It's kind of one of those old-line businesses that people don't really think about, but when you look around, our product is kind of everywhere," he says. Starting around 2010, McClelland's company and others the industry began to face increased competition from China. They fought back and won anti-dumping tariffs on Chinese aluminum products, but the import threat soon metastasized. "What used to be just a China problem now has spread," McClelland says, with surging imports from Vietnam, Turkey, India, and Mexico. "And of course Mexico is the one I really worry about, because there's a direct route to our market." Foreign companies now supply about 35% of the extruded aluminum products in the U.S., McClelland adds, nearly double their share from five years ago. "They're selling at prices we can't compete with," McClelland says. "It's going to shut down our industry if we don't do something." President-elect Donald Trump has proposed adding a tax of 10% to 20% on all imports, and McClelland is counting on those sweeping tariffs to provide a more level playing field. He acknowledges, however, that import taxes are a double-edged sword. His company has to pay more for the raw aluminum that goes into its products now because of tariffs that Trump imposed the last time he was in the White House. "It drove up our raw material costs by 10%, whether we imported them or not," McClelland recalls. "Even if it was produced domestically, it raises your costs 10%." The importer Among those business owners who face higher costs is Bobby Djavaheri. He worries that tariffs will raise the cost of his popular air fryers and other appliances, most of which are manufactured in China. "I don't think the American consumer understands what's at stake here," says Djavaheri, whose company, Yedi Houseware Appliances, is based in Los Angeles. If Trump makes good on his threat to impose a 60% tariff on imports from China, he estimates that "a $130 item will turn into something way above $200." "Americans are directly being taxed with these tariffs, not the Chinese," Djavaheri says. Some have suggested that Trump is merely using the threat of tariffs as a bargaining chip and that import taxes are unlikely to take full effect — but Djavaheri isn't counting on that. "I take it very seriously," he says. "We're trying to ramp up our imports prior to the president-elect getting sworn in." Other importers are also racing to stockpile products before any tariffs take effect. "If companies have the wherewithal to pull this product forward, to build up inventory and get their cost basis down before the new tariffs are put in, they're trying it," says Gene Seroka, executive director at the Port of Los Angeles. The port is busier than usual this time of year, unloading hundreds of thousands of shipping containers from Asia each month. One of Djavaheri's suppliers has also considered moving his factory from China to Mexico to avoid the steepest tariffs. But that may not necessarily work. Last month, Trump proposed slapping a 25% tariff on imports from both Mexico and Canada, two of the United States' biggest trading partners. The discounter Peter Elitzer is another business owner worried about the impact of tariffs. He says even a 10% tariff would be painful for the customers who shop at his discount clothing stores. Bargain-hunters who frequent Elitzer's Label Shopper stores on the East Coast and in the Midwest are already cautious about spending money. "They're only buying when they need to have something," Elitzer says. "So it's cold and they need a sweatshirt or jacket, they'll come out and get it. If it's too cold in the spring and they don't need to buy T-shirts, they don't buy T-shirts." That makes Elitzer wary about filling warehouses ahead of the potential tariffs with clothes that might not sell and run the risk of falling out of fashion. He'll take his chances on imports from India, Indonesia and Cambodia, knowing that if tariffs do come, he'll have to raise prices. "There's no question in my mind this is not going to be good news for the consumer at all," Elitzer says. "Particularly if they're trying to get inflation under control. It's the worst possible time to do that." Most of the clothing items in his stores sell for $19.99 or below — less than he was charging a decade ago. "The overwhelming majority of Americans don't shop in the high-end department stores," he says. "They're shopping in Walmart and they're shopping in the Label Shoppers of the world. And they're looking for value." Copyright 2024 NPR

Eating habits and choices that we develop in our childhood help maintain our health into adulthood and beyond. It therefore becomes extremely important for parents to inculcate the right eating habits in children as this will define their health. As stated by James Baldwin, children have never been very good at listening to elders but they have never failed to imitate them. So, it’s very essential for parents to take charge and create the right environment for kids. Parents can adopt the following steps: ALSO SEE: Understanding Eating Disorders in Children How to Inculcate Healthy Eating Habits in Children Make meal times pleasant by involving the entire family, at least for one meal of the day. Encourage your child to eat slowly. It takes the brain 20 minutes to register that the stomach is full. Also, the tastes are savoured more completely when one eats slowly. Never eat in a rush in front of your kids. Sit down, set aside a few minutes for mealtimes and your child will imitate you. ALSO SEE: Childhood Obesity: Fatter Children, Diseased Children How to Inculcate Healthy Eating Habits in Children One tends to overeat and eat whatever is available when hungry for long. Insulin levels drop and the body needs glucose fast, so one tends to eat whatever is available. The best way to deal with this is to keep eating smaller meals every 2-3 hours. Foster this practice by keeping healthy snacks around like nuts and seeds, fresh fruits, whole wheat crackers, etc. A good strategy would be to involve the kids in grocery shopping, so they can choose snacks that appeal to them. That is also a good time for you to teach them how to read the labels and make a healthy choice. ALSO SEE: Best Healthy Cooking Methods for Healthy Eating How to Inculcate Healthy Eating Habits in Children Don’t take the fun out of childhood. Treats are one of the best parts of being a kid. We need to instill good healthy eating habits in kids, but at the same time a timely treat once in a while will not harm the child, as long as you follow the same rule. ALSO SEE: Healthy Living: A Must Follow Student’s Guide for Healthy Eating How to Inculcate Healthy Eating Habits in Children Do not force or push the child to eat a lot if he decides to eat less once in a while. Of course, eating very little will make one deficient in important nutrients/vitamins needed for the body’s functions. But with your support/education your child can decide how much he needs to eat and when. Trust his/her judgement. Include a variety of fresh vegetables in different colours, fruits of all kinds, dairy and dairy products, cereals and pulses and your child will never be deficient. This habit of not overeating will go a long way, even into adulthood. ALSO SEE: Healthy Eating: 20 Best Healthy Eating Habits How to Inculcate Healthy Eating Habits in Children We see kids getting influenced by the media. There is an avalanche of advertisements that influence kids choices. Parents need to see that kids are not taken in by adverts. Instead, try and reason with the child and help them choose a healthier product. This logical reasoning will help your kids make healthy food choices. ALSO SEE: Healthy Eating: Should You Have 6 Meals or 3 Meals a Day for a Weight Loss? How to Inculcate Healthy Eating Habits in Children Kids today spend hours watching TV and playing various games on the internet, making them couch potatoes. They also tend to eat a lot of junk food, and the digestive system, finds it hard to process the large quantity of food eaten, which may lead to weight gain. So, limit the amount of time your child spends watching television and make time for eating healthy nutritious meals. ALSO SEE: Healthy Eating: 4 Food Items You Need to Walk Away From How to Inculcate Healthy Eating Habits in Children Variety is the spice of life.

Mumbai, December 16: The Indian stock market opened in red on Monday as selling was seen in Nifty's auto, IT, PSU Bank, pharma and metal sectors. At around 9:32 am, Sensex was trading at 81,876.95 after declining 256.17 points or 0.31 per cent, while the Nifty was trading at 24,705.60 after dropping 62.70 points or 0.25 per cent. The market trend remained positive. On the National Stock Exchange (NSE), 1,170 stocks were trading in green, while 571 stocks were in red. Akshay Chinchalkar of Axis Securities said that Friday's highly volatile session saw the Nifty slump during the early part of the session, “but the day's low occurred exactly at the falling neckline of the bullish head-and-shoulders pattern which was activated on December 3 with an upside objective of 25,500." Reliance Industries Limited Appoints Ira Bindra As Group President – People and Talent. This objective remains valid as long as the market stays above 23,873, but more critical support now is the Friday low of 24,180, he added. Nifty Bank was down 168 points or 0.31 per cent at 53,415.80. Nifty Midcap 100 index was trading at 59,234.85 after rising 243.30 points or 0.41 per cent. Nifty Smallcap 100 index was at 19,515.40 after rising 108.10 points or 0.56 per cent. According to market experts, the huge positions in F&O segments are causing such heightened volatility in the market. The 500 point move in the nifty from the day’s trough to the peak indicates massive short covering. In the Sensex pack, NTPC, JSW Steel, M&M, Titan, Kotak Mahindra Bank, Infosys, TCS, Hindustan Unilever Limited, Axis Bank and Tech Mahindra were the top losers. Tata Steel, UltraTech Cement, L&T, ITC, Tata Motors, IndusInd Bank and HCL Tech were the top gainers. SEBI Proposes To Allow Retail Investors to Participate in Algo Trading, Seeks Public Comments.

Indian tabla player Zakir Hussain — who united musicians from diverse cultures and by doing so, shaped modern world music — died on Sunday in San Francisco. He was 73. In a statement, his family said the cause of death was idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis. "His prolific work as a teacher, mentor and educator has left an indelible mark on countless musicians. He hoped to inspire the next generation to go further. He leaves behind an unparalleled legacy as a cultural ambassador and one of the greatest musicians of all time," his family added. Hussain's career spanned over five decades, during which he was revered as both a national treasure in India and admired worldwide. He defied genres and collaborated with an impressive range of musicians, including jazz saxophonist Charles Lloyd, bluegrass artists Edgar Meyer and Béla Fleck, as well as rockstars George Harrison and Van Morrison. His versatility earned him the rare distinction of performing twice on NPR's Tiny Desk — once in 2010 and then in 2023. "You know, you come from India and you say, 'OK, I'm representing a 3,000-year-old history,' so you think you're gonna teach the world about rhythms and drums and so on," he told NPR in 2015. "And then you arrive here. You suddenly realize that you know nothing. You're just one little dot in the painting that is the music of the universe." Beyond his performances, Hussain was admired for his passion to teaching Indian drumming, further spreading appreciation for the art form. Hussain often said that his musical journey began soon after he was born in Bombay. In the 2015 NPR interview, he recalled a tradition where a father whispers a prayer into his newborn son's ear. Instead, his father chose to sing him rhythms. "My mother was very upset and said, 'Why are you doing this?' And he said, 'Because this is my prayer,'" Hussain said. He told NPR that it was his father's dream for him to carry on the tradition of being an Indian classical musician. His father, Alla Rakha, was considered one of the world's greatest player's of tabla, a centuries-old Indian hand drum. His father taught Hussain how to play the tabla when he was 7 years old. But his father also introduced Hussain to music from around the world, which is how Hussain fell in love with rock and Western music. "I was the only kid on the block who was walking down the street with a boombox on my shoulder, playing as loud as I could 'Light My Fire,'" Hussain recalled. In 1970, at 19, Hussain traveled to the U.S. where he spent the following years working with rockstars like George Harrison, Van Morrison and Mickey Hart, the drummer from The Grateful Dead. He also played with jazz musician John Handy. In 1973, Hussain formed the Indian jazz fusion band Shakti with jazz guitarist John McLaughlin. With its melodic and rhythm instruments, the band helped American listeners appreciate sounds and instruments beyond Western music. In 2024, Hussain became the first musician from India to receive three Grammy awards in the same year after Shakti won Best Global Music Album, and Hussain's collaboration with Edgar Meyer and Béla Fleck featuring Rakesh Chaurasia won Best Global Music Performance and Best Contemporary Instrumental Album. Hussain told NPR in 2015 that throughout the course of his career, he has found similarities between rhythmists around the world — regardless of approach or style. "We were all on the same wavelength, the same quest, looking for perfection, which we will never find. But that didn't matter because it's all about the journey — not the goal," he said. NPR's Felix Contreras contributed reporting. Copyright 2024 NPR

Signs Of Breast Cancer And Breast Self Examination (BSE) Breast cancer accounts for 28 to 35 per cent of all cancers in women in India. The early stage of breast cancer does not exhibit any symptoms. Regular breast exams are important to detect any change taking place in the breasts which may later turn into cancer. One of the most common cancers in India, breast cancer accounts for 28 to 35 per cent of all cancers in women in major cities like Mumbai, Delhi, Bangalore and Chennai. One of the most important reasons is misinformation or no awareness at all. Experts suggest that early detection of breast cancer through self examination or looking out for signs and symptoms of breast cancer can save a lot of lives. We lists out breast cancer symptoms a woman should not ignore Painless swelling (lump) in the breast or the armpit region Nipple retraction Nipple discharge Change in size and shape of the breast and the nipples Change in the look of the skin surrounding the nipples and the breast region, looking reddish in colour Usually, the early stage of breast cancer does not exhibit any symptoms. So, regular breast exams are important to detect any change taking place in the breasts, which may later turn into cancer. Start doing this exam every month just after your menstrual cycle right from the age of 25 years. Here's how you do it. - Step 1: Look at your breasts in the mirror. Look for any changes in the size or shape, retraction of nipple, dimple or thickening of skin or any obvious lump. - Step 2: Raising both your arms, look for any asymmetry in your breasts. - Step 3: Keep your arms around your waist and press them firmly. This position may help in showing any retractions or dimpling present over the skin of the breast. - Step 4: Lie down with one of your arms stretched. Keeping your fingers close to each other, use the flat surface of the fingers to feel for any lumps. Do not feel the breast between the finger tips and the thumb. Press firmly enough to know how your breast feels. A firm ridge at the lower curve of each breast is normal. - Step 5: Feel the whole breast in a systematic manner. The breast is divided into five parts. The upper inner area, the upper outer area, lower inner area, lower outer area, and the central area, the nipple. Feel all the parts of your breasts without missing any area. Various factors trigger the occurrence of breast cancer. These include late age at first childbirth, fewer children and shorter duration of breast-feeding. In addition, early age at menarche and late age at menopause add to the risk to some extent. If a female has a family history of breast cancer then the chance that she may have the cancer too increases 2-3 times. Age is also one big factor responsible for the same. The chance of breast cancer in a female goes up with growing age. To add to this, a lifestyle, which involves excessive alcohol consumption and smoking increases one's risk of breast cancer. *Images courtesy: ©Thinkstock photos/ Getty READ MORE: Breast Cancer

Women’s Health: Premenstrual Syndrome (PMS) Premenstrual Syndrome (PMS) is a hormonal disorder that affects women who are menstruating. PMS happens one or two weeks before the actual menstrual cycle begins. Hormone imbalance is one of the main causes of PMS. The other factor that causes PMS is low blood sugar hypoglycemia. Premenstrual Syndrome (PMS) is a hormonal disorder that affects women who are menstruating. This disorder happens one or two weeks before the actual menstrual cycle begins. There are some symptoms which include - Depression - Cramps - Water Retention - Skin Eruption - Headaches - Bloated Abdomen - Back Aches - Tenderness of Breast - Joint Pain - Insomnia - Changes in personality like anger, violence and even suicidal tendency. Hormone imbalance is one of the main causes of PMS. During this time, the body produces excess estrogen and lesser amounts of progesterone. The other factor that causes PMS is low blood sugar (hypoglycemia). Due to fluid retention, the blood flow reduces the oxygen that has to reach the uterus, ovaries and brain leading to PMS. One can tackle PMS by exercising regularly, changing one’s diet, and practicing yoga and meditation. There are some things which a woman should keep in mind during her PMS that would be beneficial for her to avoid the symptoms: - One should avoid an excess intake of salt, caffeine, alcohol, red meats, dairy products, sugar and processed foods. - Smoking is injurious to health, so one should avoid smoking. - A medical checkup of the thyroid gland should be done. Generally, women suffering from PMS have a dysfunctional thyroid. - To alleviate the symptoms of PMS one can include Spirulina in their diet. - A proper balanced diet of fruits, vegetables, grains, cereals, beans, peas, lentils and nuts is always good for one’s health. - Our body requires lots of water, so try and drink plenty of water. Regular exercise, yoga and meditation have been found to be very effective in easing the symptoms. *Data Courtesy: Holistic Guru and Healthmeup expert, Mickey Mehta

STORY HIGHLIGHTS - Chad has been heavily impacted by flooding causing extensive damage. Torrential rains and flooding have killed 576 people and left 1.9 million homeless in the country since July 2024. - The capital N'Djamena has weathered better in 2024, despite heavy rainfall and exceptional flooding of the Chari and Logone rivers. - Support from the International Development Association's Flood Control and Urban Resilience Project (PILIER) has made it possible to preemptively clean more than 250 kilometers of drainage network between April and September 2024 and to have high-capacity motor pumps. At the confluence of the Chari and Logone rivers, the capital of Chad, N'Djamena is caught between torrential rains and the waters of the rivers. At the beginning of October 2024, the Chari River was at 8.18 meters, one meter higher than in 2022, the date of the last catastrophic flood. Like many cities in the Sahel, N'Djamena is suffering from the effects of climate change. Torrential rains and flooding have killed 576 people and left 1.9 million homeless in the country since July 2024, according to data collected by humanitarian organizations. Chad had not experienced such a disaster since the 1960s. In 2022, with one neighborhood after another taking on water, people had fled the floods, some clinging to patches of land along roads while others were moving away from the capital in search of the arid lands. The obsolete water piping and dike infrastructure was no longer functioning. This time, the Chadian capital held up better. In response to the government's request, the Integrated Flood Control and Urban Resilience Project (PILIER) supported by the International Development Association (IDA), the World Bank's arm for low-income countries, made a difference. In effect since October 2023 to support N'Djamena and effectively deal with the floods, an emergency plan of about $13 million (CFAF 8 billion) has been put in place to anticipate the possibility of significant flooding in 2024. Between April and September 2024, thanks to the Pillar project, the entire 250 km water drainage network, as well as all outfalls on the Chari River, were cleaned and emptied of the sludge and waste accumulated over the years. Damaged roads have also been reprofiled to improve drainage. These operations have been instrumental in facilitating the flow of runoff. In the memory of N'Djamenois, it was the first time that the entire network had been cleaned. In addition, large-capacity motor pumps delivered by the project to the municipality of N'Djamena allowed water to flow from the city to the river through the cleaning of drainage canals that had been carried out just before the rains by the PILIER project. These contributions from the PILIER project "have enabled us to empty the rainwater retention basins and facilitate the drainage of water thanks to the cleaning work carried out by the project since June," says Sarmadji Oumar, director of roads at the capital's city hall. "Today we escaped disastrous floods. In 2022, on this date we had more than 70,000 people, or 15,114 households affected by the floods. We saved the furniture [this time] with less than 3,000 households and fewer neighborhoods impacted." Indeed, thanks to motorized pumps, equipped with wheels and mobile, the road crews monitored the rising water like milk on the fire: "We were on the lookout. At the first alarm, we had to jump in the vehicle to intervene," says Abakar Moustapha, a road officer in N'Djamena. "We took turns day and night," adds his colleague Yves Allaramadji. In addition, in addition to the interventions of the Pillar project, the government, with its own budget, has worked on the raising of emergency dikes as well as the riprap of vulnerable points along the Chari River in the 7th and 9th districts of the capital. These interventions have made it possible to contain a historic, even century-old flood of the Chari River. Sheikh Adam Ismail, imam of the Idara Mosque in the 5th arrondissement never ceases to thank heaven. Dressed in a white boubou with a salt and pepper beard, the monk testifies: "It's been about ten years since we've seen machines from the town hall cleaning canals. This year, access to the mosque is easy for worshippers." Sitting in front of her vegetable stall, Rémadji Aline, a vendor at a market in the 7th arrondissement of N'Djamena, applauds the operation to clean up the drainage canals. "Before, in this season, there were no crowds and there was a lack of sales. We have seen that despite the heavy rains, customers are reaching the market." The Pillar Contingency Plan does more than just reduce flood risk. It also includes emergency response activities. Indeed, the project seeks to finance the delivery of emergency response equipment to floods, including canoes, communication equipment, and life jackets made available to the authorities. Drinking water and waste management stations, emergency kits consisting of mats, blankets, kitchen utensils and medicines are also prepared for potential disaster victims. Finally, Pilier has entered into financing agreements with neighborhood associations and non-governmental organizations for flood risk awareness and the rehabilitation of schools and health centers that have been flooded or occupied by the victims.

Mogadishu, Somalia/Washington — Expressing a renewed desire to return to their homeland, some Syrian refugees residing Somalia's capital, Mogadishu, are hopeful that recent developments, including the ousting of the Assad family regime that brutally ruled Syria for 53 years, might signal a safer future in Syria. Since the Syrian civil war broke out more than a decade ago, Syrians have fled to countries in the Middle East and Europe, as well as to African countries that have been grappling with instability. Many Syrian refugees found themselves in Somalia, a war-torn nation in the Horn of Africa that has faced terrorist attacks, piracy and humanitarian crises. On Wednesday, dozens of Syrian refugees in Mogadishu staged a demonstration marked with emotional speeches to celebrate the fall of President Bashar al-Assad's regime. Holding placards that read "We want to go home" and "Syria awaits us," the demonstrators expressed their longing for peace and stability in their homeland. Some of them shared their stories with VOA. "We are victorious because of the free Syrian army. Those in control [Syrian rebels] now are God-abiding people, not the ousted and strayed al-Assad," said Hussein Hikmat, a refugee from Damascus. "Here, Somalis welcomed us and supported us, but we will go back to our country." Ali Al-Zahir, who fled from Aleppo, Syria's largest city, lost his wife and three children in the Syrian war. He arrived in Mogadishu in hopes of keeping his two surviving children safe. "I am your brother from Aleppo, a city that suffered at the hands of al-Assad and his predator regime. Syria is free today, and free soldiers control it. I swear to God I want to return to my country," he said, in tears, reflecting on his deep desire to reunite with his homeland. Syrian refugee Khadija Mohamed sells perfumes and tusbah, prayer beads used in Islamic practices, in Mogadishu. While she is hopeful about returning to Syria, she acknowledges the challenges her impoverished family faces. "The situation in Syria is good. Bashar al-Assad is gone, and now Syria is in safe hands," Mohamed said. "I have lived in Somalia for two years with my husband and kids. We want to return, but our current situation does not allow us to do so." Fatima Mohamed, another refugee, shared a cautious outlook. "The situation in Syria is improving, and many places are free," she said. "It is not entirely stable yet. We hear that some of the Syrian prisoners arrested by the Assad regime are still in underground jails," she added, pointing out that conditions would need to be less volatile for her to consider returning home. Like Fatima Mohamed, many Syrian refugees remain cautious despite their longing to return home. Somali officials who spoke at the demonstrations have acknowledged the refugees' wishes and said they were working with international organizations to assess the situation in Syria and facilitate safe returns. There is no official data on the number of Syrian refugees living in Somalia, but officials estimate it to be in the thousands. Syrians who found refuge in Somalia said the two countries' history of amicable relations drove them. The Syrians say Somalis' friendliness toward refugees and Somalia's lack of visa restrictions also drew them to Mogadishu and other major cities in the country. In return, the Syrian refugees, which include doctors, nurses, engineers, chefs, technicians, and teachers among their ranks, have enriched Somalia culturally and economically because of the knowledge and skillsets they brought with them. This story originated in VOA's Somali Service.

New Chinese economic performance indicators for November show growth but a slowdown in retail sales despite efforts to incentivize spending. Beijing is bracing for possible impacts of a second Trump term in the US.Broadly positive Chinese economic data for November released on Monday also showed slower-than-expected growth of 3.3% in retail sales, much slower than in October and well adrift of the 4.6% forecast. Also Read | Kerala: Policeman Takes Own Life by Shooting Himself Dead With Service Gun in Malappuram District. The slowdown came as a surprise because Beijing has been working to boost stimulus programs and encourage consumption, as it braces for possible headwinds as Donald Trump returns for a second term as US president, threatening increased tariffs. China had implemented major online shopping promotions and government-subsidized trade-in programs boosting sales in things like cars, which were expected to buoy growth. Markets in Shanghai and Hong Kong dipped as the news was announced on Monday morning. But by early afternoon, the Shanghai Exchange in particular had pared these losses and was back in the green, while the Hang Seng was down roughly 0.5%. Chinese government pledging 'moderately loose' monetary policy China's government has been trying to show it's working to kickstart consumption and reignite the world's second-largest economy. Beijing last week announced new measures aimed at "lifting consumption vigorously" as part of a stimulus drive. But as these left investors seemingly unimpressed, officials unveiled new promises over the weekend including a bid to boost the struggling property sector and change monitoring of equity markets. President Xi Jinping said at the annual Central Economic Work Conference that the Chinese Communist Party would implement a "moderately loose" monetary policy, increase social financing and also reduce interest rates "at the right time." Stats agency hints at tougher 2025 conditions Despite concerns over the sluggish growth, and the more general downward trend compared to the rapid Chinese expansion achieved over the past couple of decades, Monday's figures remained robust. Industrial output grew 5.4% compared to the previous November, a slight increase from October and in line with predictions. Retail sales however dipped to 3.3% growth from 4.8% the previous month. A spokesperson for the National Statistics Bureau warned while presenting the data that protectionism was on the rise and the agency anticipated tougher conditions next year. They called for more efforts to promote economic recovery in 2025. msh/sri (AFP, Reuters) (The above story first appeared on LatestLY on Dec 16, 2024 11:20 AM IST.

Investing in a Hermès Birkin today seems to offer more benefits than investing in gold, reflecting a shift in priorities among high-end buyers. The allure of exclusivity and social status can create a powerful temptation, yet it is important to remember the humanity behind these luxury items. The story of the Birkin bag highlights a poignant narrative that often gets overshadowed by the glamour. Trendy Resort Handbags for 2024: Fun and Fashionable Choices. The iconic Birkin bag was born in 1984 from a serendipitous encounter between Jane Birkin and Hermès chairman Jean-Louis Dumas on a flight. However, as time passed, Jane expressed deep concern regarding the brand's use of crocodile skins for the bag. Concerned about animal welfare, she requested that her name be removed from the bag, stating she did not want to be associated with practices she found troubling. The State of Style: Key Trends Shaping Fashion in 2024. In her own words, she articulated her discomfort: “Having been altered to the cruel practices endured by crocodiles during their slaughter for the production of Hermès bags carrying my name, I have asked the Hermès Group to rename the Birkin until better practices responding to international norms can be implemented for the production of this bag.” Though Hermès defended its commitment to ethical treatment of animals in their partner farms, Jane's concerns reflected a genuine compassion that resonated with many. Luxury Artistry of Cosmetic Clinics. Despite this, Jane chose not to actively market or endorse the bag, revealing a complicated relationship with such an extravagant symbol. Her mixed feelings serve as a reminder that behind the luxury lies a deeper story, one that raises important questions about the nature of consumption and our relationship with the brands we admire. If the namesake of a renowned luxury item finds herself hesitant to support it, it prompts us to reflect: why are so many others captivated by the magnetism of exclusive luxury marketing? Perhaps it's time to consider the values behind our choices and the impact they may have on the world around us. (The above story first appeared on LatestLY on Dec 16, 2024 11:07 AM IST.

Grow and Groom Your Facial Hair People at the workplace don't take you seriously. Your sweetheart, who once drooled over your chocolate boy looks, now seems distracted. So guys, it is about time to get a makeover! Grow your facial hair. People at the workplace don't take you seriously. Your sweetheart, who once drooled over your chocolate boy looks, now seems distracted. So guys, it is about time to get a makeover! Grow your facial hair. No, it's not just another wacky idea. A lot of lean, clean-shaven men are growing beards, moustaches or even goatees - and getting them groomed. Celebrity stylish Ashmeen Munjaal, who has unisex salons across the capital, gets an average of five clients per day who want to groom themselves and grow facial hair. "Chocolate and lean looks are out because there is a lot of immaturity in it and with facial hair, guys feel macho. For the same reason, guys in the age of 20 to 26 years come to my salon," Munjaal said. "If they get light stubble, they want to get that shaped properly. Specially 20 plus men get them designed properly as per their professionals environment," he added and informed that corporate have a different choice, and the call centre guys have a different requirement. Designer moustaches are the corporate sector guys' favourite, while geometrical beards and sideburns are popular among call centre employees. According to a survey by health and well-being company Philips, the rise in the trend is because men feel that they get more respect at work if they have a beard. "Beards, which have traditionally been associated with power, authority, respect are also now a means of expression for the youth. Their facial styles reflect their personalities as much as their clothes and job profiles," said A.D.A. Ratnam, president, consumer lifestyle, Philips. It is not just the job factor that is making men grow facial hair; women also have an inclination towards men with a rugged appearance, a survey revealed. Close to 54 percent women respondents in the age group of 21-25 years find men with styled facial hair more attractive. While 50 percent women associate them with modernity and another 35 percent think of them as outgoing. Psychologist Monika Kumar described the trend as a conscious effort to bridge the gap between the "real self" and the "idol self". "I feel all of us do image management. We do it for the social front so that we can bridge the gap between the world and us," said Monika Kumar. Elaborating, she said: "There are also many complexes that go into adapting an image for the environment. May be the person feels inadequate and decides to change the way he looks in front of the society." Media student Nagendra Nath Neeraj agreed. "My physique is not well-built. Every time I shave, I look a lot younger than my age and it somehow does not reflect sincerity. But when I grow a beard, I feel, I look sincere and serious," he said. Some men believe that corporate companies dealing with the public need young-looking workers who can strike a good rapport with the youth. "People who grow moustachess are perceived to be the old school kinds. The corporate sector needs young and dynamic people who groom themselves like youngsters and strike a good rapport with the youth," said Nitin Bashista, 24, who works as a store manager. At the end of the day it's all about being confident about oneself, says Monika Kumar."Anybody, who is confident and whose gap between the real self and the perceived one is not much does not pay attention to image building," she added. "They believe in whatever they are saying is worth listening for the audience. They don't focus much on getting consent," she said.

According to a recent report from Forbes on December 12th, millions of stainless steel travel mugs from the well-known Stanley brand are being recalled due to serious safety concerns, as the company has reported numerous burn injuries linked to defective lids. Diesel X Lee – Swap Wastefulness for Mindfulness. Stanley has officially announced the recall of 2.6 million of their Switchback and Trigger Action stainless steel travel mugs available in 12 oz., 16 oz., and 20 oz. sizes. The issue lies with the lid threads, which shrink when exposed to heat, causing the lids to detach from the cups. This defect presents a significant burn hazard for anyone using the mugs to store hot liquids. The recall comes after Stanley received 91 reports of lids detaching, which resulted in 38 burn injuries globally, including 16 reports and two injuries from U.S. customers. Among those injured, 11 required medical attention. The New Colour ‘Mocha Mousse’ by Pantone Is Poised To Take Centre Stage in 2025. These cups, priced between $20 and $50, have been sold at major retailers such as Amazon, Walmart, Dick’s Sporting Goods, and Target for over eight years. Each recalled mug features one of the specific product identification numbers printed on the bottom. Stanley, a company with a proud 111-year history, saw a surge in popularity in recent years, particularly among Gen Z and Millennial women, thanks to viral recognition on Reels and Instagram. This notoriety skyrocketed Stanley's revenue from $73 million in 2019 to $194 million in 2021, and an astonishing $750 million in 2023, as the demand for their "Quencher" product reached unprecedented levels. The Quencher water bottles—40-ounce insulated cups with handles and straws—are priced between $45 and $55 each, and new color releases consistently sell out. Take On the Denim Trend To Elevate Your Winter Wardrobe. Content creator and Stanley Quencher collector Chelsea Espejo succinctly captures the brand's cultural significance, stating, “On the days that I do have extra time, I search for the specific [color] that matches my shirt. I wouldn’t even say Stanleys are something I use. They’re part of my personality. If I don’t have it, if I don’t choose the right color, my day kind of doesn’t go how I planned it.” (The above story first appeared on LatestLY on Dec 16, 2024 10:49 AM IST.

Saphala Ekadashi is a significant fasting day observed on the ekadashi (the 11th day) of the Krishna Paksha (waning phase of the moon) in the Hindu month of Paush. This sacred day is also known as Pausa Krishna Ekadashi, and according to the Gregorian calendar, it usually falls between December and January. Saphala Ekadashi is a day devoted to Lord Vishnu, and it is believed that fasting on this day can help cleanse one’s sins and bring happiness and peace into their lives. Ahead of Saphala Ekadashi 2024, know Saphala Ekadashi Vrat date, shubh muhurat, auspicious rituals and significance to worship Lord Vishnu. Saphala Ekadashi 2024 Date, Shubh Muhurat and Rituals Saphala Ekadashi 2024 will be observed on Thursday, December 26. The central practice of Saphala Ekadashi is fasting, observed by devotees to honor Lord Vishnu. The fast begins at dawn on ekadashi and ends with the sunrise on dwadashi (the following day). Devotees typically refrain from consuming food and water during this period, and some follow a more lenient fast by consuming fruits or light meals during the day. Saphala Ekadashi Vrat 2024 Date: Know Parana Timings, Shubh Muhurat and Significance of This Auspicious Day. On Saphala Ekadashi, devotees are encouraged to observe the fast with purity of heart and devotion. Only saatvik food, which is simple, vegetarian, and prepared without onion or garlic, is allowed if a partial fast is chosen. People who cannot complete a full-day fast may opt for a half-day fast or follow a partial fast, depending on their health and ability. The worship of Lord Vishnu is the main focus of the day. Devotees offer Tulsi leaves to Lord Vishnu, as it is believed that doing so on this day can absolve one of all sins. In addition to Tulsi leaves, other offerings such as incense sticks, coconut, betel nut, and aromatic substances are presented. Lighting lamps (diyas) in the evening is considered highly auspicious and further enhances the rewards of the fast. A key aspect of Saphala Ekadashi is staying awake through the night. Devotees engage in singing bhajans (devotional songs) and kirtans (group chants) to honor Lord Vishnu. It is also common to listen to stories and legends about Lord Vishnu’s deeds and blessings. At the end of the day, an aarti (ritual of singing hymns in praise of the deity) is performed, followed by the distribution of prasad (offered food) to family members and fellow devotees. Saphala Ekadashi Significance The significance of Saphala Ekadashi is vividly described in the Brahmanda Purana, where a conversation between Lord Krishna and Yudhishthira, the King of Dharma, highlights the immense spiritual value of observing this fast. According to the scriptures, the rewards of fasting on Saphala Ekadashi far surpass those of performing hundreds of Rajasuya Yagnas or thousands of Ashvamedha Yagnas, two of the most sacred and grand rituals in Hindu tradition. Saphala Ekadashi is much more than just a fasting day; it is a day of devotion, reflection, and spiritual growth. By observing the fast with sincerity and performing the associated rituals, devotees honor Lord Vishnu and seek his blessings for a life free from obstacles. The significance of this day, as described in ancient texts, underscores its importance in Hindu tradition. Whether for personal transformation, material prosperity, or spiritual fulfillment, Saphala Ekadashi offers a path to a better, more rewarding life.

Most Floridians probably don’t put much thought into prepping for winter weather like they do for hurricane season. However, some parts of Florida get temperatures that dip below freezing and occasional snow and ice storms can happen during winter months in north Florida. FLORIDA TURNING EVEN COLDER! 🥶 — Matt Devitt (@MattDevittWX) December 1, 2024 Expect temperatures to drop more by Tuesday and Wednesday morning with a freeze across northern parts of the state along with wind chills in the 20s. In Southwest Florida, wind chills will be as low as the 30s inland, get those jackets ready!… pic.twitter.com/XdvaMSUPhH These cold weather storm events can be dangerous and even deadly because many Florida homes lack adequate heating and insulation for dealing with sub-freezing conditions. No heat from loss of power can create dangerous situations for homeowners during winter weather events. There is also a risk of electrical outages and frozen or broken water pipes. Old man winter can bring a variety of weather between now and next Spring. Here are the most common weather issues Floridians need to be prepared for: Cold air outbreaks Cold air often invades Florida from Canada, especially when a low pressure system is followed by a high pressure system. These outbreaks can cause freezing temperatures and strong winds, which can lead to dangerous wind chills. Dry conditionsFlorida’s dry season begins in the winter. That means there is a longer duration between rain events. Wildfire season also starts to ramp up as dry vegetation and forests become more susceptible to wildfires. Evacuations ordered for parts of Collier County for an ongoing wildfire. Be heads up, it’s fire season in Florida. #wildfire #CollierCounty #Florida #FLWX #FL #fire — The Hotshot Wake Up (@HotshotWake) March 3, 2023 pic.twitter.com/cH4ZT2KQOV Nor'eastersThese storms can bring heavy rain, high winds, frozen precipitation, and rough surf to Florida. They are more common and stronger between September and April. El NiñoDuring an El Niño phase, Florida can experience more stormy conditions, including tornadoes, severe wind, and severe hail. Hellooooo El Niño! 2-4” of rain Florida wide, with pockets of 6”+ this weekend. Severe threat along the warm front (in the Tampa Bay Area that will be late Saturday and Saturday night). pic.twitter.com/Dw2dTLWv9m — Jeff Berardelli (@WeatherProf) December 14, 2023 Severe cold outbreaks occur in Florida at least once a year. During the harsh winter of 1989-1990, 26 Floridians died of hypothermia. When temperatures are forecast to drop near or below freezing, a Freeze Warning will be issued by the National Weather Service. Even with temperatures a few degrees above freezing (mid-30s), frost can develop on elevated surfaces if skies are clear and winds are light. Frost on a cold winter morning is not snow, and develops much like dew on a warm, muggy summer morning. Florida’s dangerous winter weather include: Hypothermia Prolonged exposure to cold temperatures can lead to hypothermia, especially if your body gets wet. Hypothermia occurs when your body temperature drops below 96°F. Frost Frost can develop on elevated surfaces when temperatures are a few degrees above freezing, especially if skies are clear and winds are light. Wind chill Strong winds combined with cold temperatures can make it feel much colder outside than the actual temperature. Frozen pipes Exposed pipes can freeze and burst, causing water loss and dangerous ice conditions. Fire danger Space heaters and candles can be a fire hazard, especially if used incorrectly. Plant damage Cold temperatures can kill outdoor plants that are not cold tolerant. Swimming and surfingThe lakes and northeastern Gulf of Mexico can get cold enough to be dangerous for swimmers and surfers.

Do you know the 5 P's Of Cold Weather Preparedness? Protect People: Remember to dress in layers and wear a hat and gloves. It is important to try to stay out of the wind and to stay dry. Protect Pets: If cold weather is in the forecast, be sure to bring outdoor pets inside or give them a warm shelter to stay in. 🐱Any time of year is a good time to make sure your family is prepared for an emergency! — FL Division of Emergency Management (@FLSERT) December 11, 2024 Pets are part of the family too, & should also have their own emergency plan & disaster supply kit.

Protect Pipes: Cover pipes and allow outdoor faucets to slowly drip to prevent them from freezing and breaking. Practice Fire Safety: Use safe heating sources indoors. Do not use fuel-burning devices such as grills; they release carbon monoxide, which is a deadly gas. Also, make sure to use space heaters according to their instructions and be attentive to open flames. Hosting overnight guests for the #holidays? Be sure to discuss your fire escape plan with them. Include what each person will need to do to get out safely and the location of your outside meeting place. #HolidayFireSafety #WinterFireSafety pic.twitter.com/tcNE2NSmmK — U.S. Fire (USFA) (@usfire) December 13, 2024 If a winter weather event is in your forecast, don't wait to take action. Grocery store shelves quickly become depleted because overly concerned citizens stock up on all the items they can (for themselves and others they know) in case the storm lasts longer than anticipated. The same applies to gas stations and their fuel pumps. Staying indoors and off the roads is a safe way to endure a storm, and adequate preparation for becoming stranded may save your life. Winter weather events can be enjoyable and perhaps beautiful, but they also can catch you off guard if you do not know what to anticipate. So plan ahead and be prepared this season!

DF&TR staff at Milan Airports gain ‘next-level’ CX training for Chinese shoppers By Luke Barras-hill | 2.0 & Partners has delivered its Chinese Excellence Academy workshop for frontline staff at Italian airport group SEA Group. The Chinese Excellence Academy workshop ran on 21 November courtesy of 2.0 & Partners Head of Customer eXperience Management – Italy Erika Gianni, Content Developer Simin Liu and Customer eXperience Management Project Manager Roberta Coletta. The Chinese Excellence Academy offers online and offline workshops, crafted by industry experts, for the DF&TR sector. These are designed to assist frontline staff in unlocking what 2.0 & Partners calls ‘the next level of service’ for Chinese consumers. “We are delighted to be bringing this tailor-made and vital training programme to frontline staff at SEA Milano,” said Gianni. “The return of Chinese travellers is an exciting opportunity for the travel retail sector, but these shoppers’ demands, expectations and willingness to spend has changed and frontline staff must be fully equipped with the insights, techniques and understandings to deliver exactly the service their consumers demand. Sales and interaction skills “This course has been crafted by experts to enhance the offer of travel retail staff and we are excited to further our partnership with SEA Milano with this workshop.” Outbound international travel from China is poised to reach 80% of pre-Covid levels by the end of 2024, according to China’s aviation regulator. However, evolving and higher in-store service expectations and staff interaction has led to a reduced willingness to spend and therefore requires a tailored and bespoke approach for consumers, argues 2.0 & Partners. Aside training on cultural nuances to better cater to purchasing behaviours, the course includes insights on effective interaction, including Mandarin and non-verbal communication, and tailored sales techniques. The programme is delivered in an interactive and immersive manner to help with the rapid absorption of new information and skills, adds the company. SEA Group manages Milano Linate and Milano Malpensa Airports.

Sunscreen Helps Prevent Skin Cancer Sunscreen not only provides 100 per cent protection against sunburn, but also protects a "superhero gene" which fights all three types of skin cancer, Australian researchers have found. Sunscreen not only provides 100 per cent protection against sunburn, but also protects a "superhero gene" which fights all three types of skin cancer, Australian researchers have found. The researchers from Queensland University of Technology carried out a study to examine the effectiveness of sunscreen in preventing skin cancers, reports Xinhua. After conducting a series of skin biopsies on 57 people before and after UV exposure, with and without sunscreen, they found that sunscreen efficiently protects the skin from sunburn. The study released Tuesday also shows that sunscreen shields the superhero p53 gene, which protects skin from all three forms of skin cancer -- basal cell carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma and malignant melanoma. "As soon as our skin gets damaged from UV rays, the p53 gene starts repairing the damaged cells and thereby prevents skin cancer," lead researcher Elke Hacker said. "But if the skin is burnt regularly, the p53 gene mutates and can no longer do the same job - it no longer repairs damaged skin and in the lack of such protection skin cancers are likely to occur," he said. The study could be used to develop post-sun exposure treatment, such as super sunscreens to repair sun damaged skin. IANS

As the mystery grows around the drones flying over New Jersey, so do the calls from puzzled residents to authorities about the flying machines. Reports of drone sightings have spread from New Jersey to other states, including Pennsylvania, New York, Maryland, Connecticut and Ohio. Federal authorities on Sunday repeated assurances that the drones are not a security threat. But they still don't know where they came from or who is responsible. Meanwhile, some state and federal officials called for Congress to pass expanded legislation that would give federal authorities greater resources to mitigate risks from drones. Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas told ABC News' This Week on Sunday that the federal government has deployed additional resources, including personnel and technology, to assist New Jersey State Police with addressing drone sightings and that the Biden administration remains "vigilant" in investigating the drone sightings. "There's no question that people are seeing drones," he added, but noted that some of the recent sightings on the East Coast are likely crewed aircraft or duplicate sightings. He called for Congress to act quickly to extend and expand the current drone-countering authorities — authorized in the Federal Aviation Administration Reauthorization Act of 2018 — which are set to expire on Dec. 20. The law enables the Homeland Security and Justice Departments to use advanced detection technologies to identify, track and mitigate drones. "It is critical, as we all have said for a number of years, that we need from Congress additional authorities to address the drone situation," Mayorkas said in the ABC interview with George Stephanopoulos. A joint congressional subcommittee hearing held last week centered on a bipartisan bill — called the Counter-UAS Authority Security, Safety, and Reauthorization Act — that would expand federal drone-countering measures, like bolstering the FAA's oversight powers of drones. The federal government is also sending a drone detection system to New York, Gov. Kathy Hochul said Sunday. "I am grateful for the support, but we need more," she said on X. Passing the Counter-UAS legislation, she said in a separate statement, "will give New York and our peers the authority and resources required to respond to circumstances like we face today." Rep. Jim Himes, D-Conn., who sits on the House Intelligence Committee, said on Fox News Sunday, "There's a lot of us who are pretty frustrated right now." "'We don't know' is not a good enough answer," he said, in reference to what he said is a lack of information from federal agencies. Drone activity over the weekend forced a pause on air traffic in at least two states. The New York Stewart International Airport runways shut down for an hour on Friday night after the FAA reported drone sightings in the area, a spokesperson confirmed. In Ohio, there was a temporary closure of the airspace above Wright Patterson Air Force Base between Friday night and Saturday morning after "small unmanned aerial systems were spotted in the vicinity of and over" the base, base spokesman Bob Purtiman told NPR member station WVXU. During a call with reporters on Saturday, a Pentagon spokesperson acknowledged that there had also been sightings of drones over two military installations in New Jersey, at Picatinny Arsenal and Naval Weapons Station Earle, but said such sightings are typical. "This is not a new issue for us," the Joint Staff spokesperson said, according to the Pentagon's news service. "We've had to deal with drone incursions over our bases for quite a time now. It's something that we routinely respond to in each and every case when reporting is cited." Still unclear who is responsible for drone activity The military maintained over the weekend that there were no signs of foreign adversary involvement. "To date, we have no intelligence or observations that would indicate that they were aligned with a foreign actor or that they had malicious intent," the Pentagon spokesperson said. "But ... we don't know. We have not been able to locate or identify the operators or the points of origin." The spokesperson also said the drones are frustrating the Department of Defense, adding that the military has "limited authorities" to investigate outside military installations in the U.S., and is also prohibited from conducting intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance operations that could help determine the origins of the drones. "We don't know what the activity is," the Pentagon news service quoted the spokesperson as saying. "We don't know ... if it is criminal. But I will tell you that it is irresponsible."

Indian tabla player Zakir Hussain — who united musicians from diverse cultures and by doing so, shaped modern world music — died on Sunday in San Francisco. He was 73. In a statement, his family said the cause of death was idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis. "His prolific work as a teacher, mentor and educator has left an indelible mark on countless musicians. He hoped to inspire the next generation to go further. He leaves behind an unparalleled legacy as a cultural ambassador and one of the greatest musicians of all time," his family added. Hussain's career spanned over five decades, during which he was revered as both a national treasure in India and admired worldwide. He defied genres and collaborated with an impressive range of musicians, including jazz saxophonist Charles Lloyd, bluegrass artists Edgar Meyer and Béla Fleck, as well as rockstars George Harrison and Van Morrison. His versatility earned him the rare distinction of performing twice on NPR's Tiny Desk — once in 2010 and then in 2023. "You know, you come from India and you say, 'OK, I'm representing a 3,000-year-old history,' so you think you're gonna teach the world about rhythms and drums and so on," he told NPR in 2015. "And then you arrive here. You suddenly realize that you know nothing. You're just one little dot in the painting that is the music of the universe." Beyond his performances, Hussain was admired for his passion to teaching Indian drumming, further spreading appreciation for the art form. Hussain often said that his musical journey began soon after he was born in Bombay. In the 2015 NPR interview, he recalled a tradition where a father whispers a prayer into his newborn son's ear. Instead, his father chose to sing him rhythms. "My mother was very upset and said, 'Why are you doing this?' And he said, 'Because this is my prayer,'" Hussain said. He told NPR that it was his father's dream for him to carry on the tradition of being an Indian classical musician. His father, Alla Rakha, was considered one of the world's greatest player's of tabla, a centuries-old Indian hand drum. His father taught Hussain how to play the tabla when he was 7 years old. But his father also introduced Hussain to music from around the world, which is how Hussain fell in love with rock and Western music. "I was the only kid on the block who was walking down the street with a boombox on my shoulder, playing as loud as I could 'Light My Fire,'" Hussain recalled. In 1970, at 19, Hussain traveled to the U.S. where he spent the following years working with rockstars like George Harrison, Van Morrison and Mickey Hart, the drummer from The Grateful Dead. He also played with jazz musician John Handy. In 1973, Hussain formed the Indian jazz fusion band Shakti with jazz guitarist John McLaughlin. With its melodic and rhythm instruments, the band helped American listeners appreciate sounds and instruments beyond Western music. In 2024, Hussain became the first musician from India to receive three Grammy awards in the same year after Shakti won Best Global Music Album, and Hussain's collaboration with Edgar Meyer and Béla Fleck featuring Rakesh Chaurasia won Best Global Music Performance and Best Contemporary Instrumental Album. Hussain told NPR in 2015 that throughout the course of his career, he has found similarities between rhythmists around the world — regardless of approach or style. "We were all on the same wavelength, the same quest, looking for perfection, which we will never find. But that didn't matter because it's all about the journey — not the goal," he said. NPR's Felix Contreras contributed reporting. Copyright 2024 NPR

Bansko Kicks Off Ski Season with Optimism for Growth in Bulgarian Winter Tourism Bulgaria is gearing up for significant growth in winter tourism as the country prepares to open the new ski season in Bansko A recent study reveals that local governments in Bulgaria are more stable than national ones amidst ongoing political instability, with municipalities showing a growing commitment to integrity. The findings come from the annual report on the Local Integrity System Index by Transparency Without Borders. The study uses a scale of 0 to 5, with the national average score standing at 3.27, indicating a solid performance. Municipalities such as Burgas, Ruse, Sofia, Plovdiv, and Montana rank at the top for demonstrating higher levels of integrity, while cities like Shumen, Silistra, and Kardzhali are identified as being at greater risk. The research, which relies on nearly 4,800 indicators, also evaluates the performance of individual institutions within municipalities. It reveals that mayors and municipal administrations hold the highest integrity values, while businesses and regional media are more likely to engage in unethical practices. Notably, mayors in Targovishte, Ruse, Sofia, and Dobrich scored the highest for integrity, whereas the mayors of Smolyan, Kardzhali, and Silistra were found to be in the risk zone.

New Jersey community remembers beloved crossing guard who died protecting kids Friends and family gathered in Burlington, New Jersey, Sunday to honor the community's beloved crossing guard. Earlier this month, Bruce Morlack died after he was hit by a car while helping two students cross the road. Now, he's being remembered as a hero. "We grieve the crossing guard who not only was always smiling but made all of us smile with a wave, a song on his harmonica, an encouraging or funny word for the children that he helped cross the road coming and going from school," Pastor Abie Kulynych, of City of Refuge Fellowship, said. Morlack was killed earlier this month while escorting two boys across Jacksonville Road in a marked crosswalk near Burlington City High School. Surveillance from that morning shows the 74-year-old holding up his stop sign when he and the two boys nearly get hit by one car and then seconds later, another comes right at them. Police say Morlack saved the two students from being hit. "His commitment to the community is unwavering and he gave everything to ensure others were safe. Mr. Morlack is a true hero in every sense of the word," Acting Chief Ryan Elbertson, of the City of Burlington Police Department, said. The community gathered Sunday afternoon to honor the crossing guard they said was known for his kindness, commitment to safety, and playing his harmonica. A bright yellow jacket and stop sign on display as a tribute to the man who touched so many. The family of one of the boys who was with Morlack when he was hit sent a letter to be read at the vigil: "Seeing the footage of Bruce pulling Jace back from the first car and then saving both Jace and his friend from the second car was overwhelming," an organizer of the event said. Morlack's own son-in-law also shared more about Bruce Morlack, the father and grandfather. "He was always with his family. I want to let you know that's his legacy," his son-in-law Ray said. "That man loved his family to no end." And then, the community had a final sendoff consisting of glow sticks and a special harmonica rendition for the smiling crossing guard who served his students until his last breath. The Burlington City School District said it's working with the state to create safer crosswalks and school zones.

Institutions in Bulgaria Set to Convert Fees to Euros for Eurozone Integration Several institutions in Bulgaria are preparing to switch the fees they charge businesses and citizens to euros, as part of the country's upcoming transition to the eurozone. This shift is outlined in proposals currently open for public discussion. For example, the State Commission for Commodity Exchanges and Markets is set to update its fee tariff, with all amounts to be listed in euros. Under the new system, the cost for issuing a license for operating a commodity exchange or clearing house will decrease from 5,000 leva to 2,556.46 euros. Similarly, the fee for issuing a certificate of registration for a commodity exchange or producer's market, currently at 3,000 leva, will change to 1,533.88 euros. Other fees will also be adjusted, such as the charge for preparing a report on a product, which will now be 10.23 euros for one month, 15.34 euros for three months, 25.56 euros for six months, and 30.68 euros for one year. The Bulgarian Institute of Metrology (BIM) will also adjust its fee structure. The fees will be converted using the official exchange rate, in accordance with the rules outlined in the Law on the Introduction of the Euro in Bulgaria. For instance, the cost for a full test of a fiscal device or cash register will drop from 1,210 leva to 618.66 euros, while testing a fiscal device integrated into a self-service machine will incur the same fee. Additionally, the inspection of non-automatic scales up to 100 kg will cost 17.90 euros, down from the current 35 leva. These changes will be implemented once Bulgaria joins the eurozone. Source: econ.bg Bulgaria's State Debt Projected to Rise Significantly Through 2028 The Bulgarian Ministry of Finance has projected a significant increase in the state debt over the period from 2025 to 2028, estimating a rise of about 1.7 times Bulgaria Faces 3 Billion Leva Shortfall in 2024 Budget Due to Unspent Recovery Funds Bulgaria’s Ministry of Finance has decided to abandon the proposed tax on subsoil resources Bulgarian National Bank Warns 2025 Budget Could Derail Eurozone Aspirations The Bulgarian National Bank (BNB) has expressed strong opposition to the draft state budget for 2025, which is set to be officially submitted to the National Assembly by the caretaker government Bulgaria's Draft Budget for 2025: 3% Deficit, State Debt Growth, and Key Tax Changes The Bulgarian Ministry of Finance has unveiled the draft budget for 2025, alongside the updated medium-term fiscal forecast covering 2025 to 2028 Thousands of Bulgarian Investors Lose Money in BETL Scheme Thousands of Bulgarian consumers who invested in the British company BETL have reported that the company has stopped paying daily dividends and appears to have ceased its operations.

Jalen Hurts, Philadelphia Eagles get passing game back on track in win over Steelers After a week filled with questions about the Philadelphia Eagles' passing attack, Jalen Hurts and the Birds got it back on track Sunday with a 27-13 victory over the Pittsburgh Steelers at Lincoln Financial Field. "So that's what y'all wanted to see, huh?" Hurts asked the media as he sat down at the podium for his postgame press conference. To his credit, Hurts and his top two wide receivers – A.J. Brown and DeVonta Smith – delivered after the team's passing game was heavily scrutinized in last week's victory over the Carolina Panthers. Hurts finished that game with 108 passing yards and looked indecisive in the pocket. The Eagles leaned on Saquon Barkley like they have for much of the season, but it was a completely different story against the Steelers. Hurts was efficient against Pittsburgh and completed 25 of his 32 passes for 290 yards and two touchdowns with a 125.3 quarterback rating and rushed for a score on the "Brotherly Shove" to go along with 45 rushing yards on 15 carries. "I've always said and believed that you want to make sure all your tools are sharp when you need them, so when it's time to use them, you can go, so I don't think there's a doubt in that," Hurts said. "I think frankly that there was an effort there. The approach was a little different this week. And the grass will be green where you water it. And we decided to water it, you kind of saw the fruits of our labor in that. Obviously, we've been watering the running game a good bit. It's kind of natural to put an emphasis on one thing and take an emphasis off another and see what you guys have kind of seen. We want to push to be well-rounded and water all areas of our yard." With the Steelers ranking in the top five against the run, the Eagles won through the air and it helped them build an early lead. Hurts connected with A.J. Brown and DeVonta Smith on first-half touchdowns, and the latter gave Philadelphia 17-3 lead early in the second quarter. Smith finished with 11 catches for 109 yards and a touchdown, while Brown had eight catches for 110 yards and his score. It marks the first time all season the star wideouts each had more than 100 receiving yards in the same game. Both have missed games this season due to injuries. After last week's game, Brown's one-word answer about the passing game sparked questions about Philadelphia's aerial attack. Then things got worse when Brandon Graham fanned the flames and implied Hurts and Brown didn't get along. Graham later apologized and said he misspoke, while Brown later clarified what he meant last week. This led to the Eagles having plenty of difficult conversations about the passing game before facing Pittsburgh, and Hurts said he takes the criticism in stride. "The scrutiny is never-ending, it's nothing new," Hurts said. "That's something that I find the thrill in. I appreciate being told I can't and that we can't. And I know that I lead this team and it takes a lot out of it. It demands a lot of you. I just want to show up and be the best teammate, quarterback, and be the best that I can be for the guys on the team." While Hurts was sharp throwing the ball, he confirmed that he is playing with a broken finger on his non-throwing hand. He said it impacted his play, but he didn't elaborate much on the details of the injury or when it occurred. "I mean, it is what it is," Hurts said. "It's been at the state it's at all week and I really don't want to put too much into it. I can say I don't think it got any worse today. If it's shattered, it's shattered. It is what it is."

"Good evening, Lord." Those were the words Jack Mehner spoke during his invocation at the Cape Chamber's annual dinner. It stuck with me, partly because you hear so few people begin prayer this way. But if you know Mehner and what he endured 13 months ago, it makes perfect sense. Prayer has been his source of strength. Mehner, 84, and fellow aviator Lowell Peterson worked on planes together over the years, and on Oct. 9, 2018, on a windy, but otherwise sunny day the two men flipped a private aircraft at the Cape Girardeau Regional Airport. Peterson, who was the pilot that day, died. Mehner suffered from a broken neck and a head injury. A faint scar on the right side of his forehead is a permanent reminder. "It was a little windy. [It] wasn't too bad when we took off," Mehner told me Monday afternoon. "We flew around for awhile and by the time we got ready to leave the wind was like 26, 25 knots crosswind -- which is not good. But Lowell had done that before and landed in cross winds. [He was] a good pilot. So I had no reason to be concerned." The plane descended in what Mehner called a "critical landing." It hit the runway hard, bounced, then blew into the grass where it flipped, he recalled. Mehner was unable to get Peterson out of the plane. He used a handkerchief to stop the bleeding from his own head, crawled out of the plane and called 911. Peterson, he learned later, died of a heart attack when the plane landed. "It wasn't anything he did wrong," Mehner said. "He just had a heart attack." Over the coming weeks Mehner spent time in an intensive care unit recovering from his broken neck followed by several weeks of rehabilitation at Chateau Girardeau. Because of radiation from previous vocal cord cancer, medical staff struggled to insert a breathing tube which ultimately led to swallowing difficulty. Even after being discharged to go home, Mehner struggled with swallowing. A feeding tube was his source of nutrition. But one night while meeting friends for dinner, he tried a small amount of chicken noodle soup. With a little work, he was able to swallow. Now, he can eat most anything he wants. Mehner said his wife, Sherri, was a big help in the recovery. He received numerous visitors and cards. Even a marquee on Independence Street read, "Pray for Jack." "[There were] so many prayers, people saying they prayed for me, that I can't begin to count them," Mehner said. Faith has always been a source of strength for Mehner. But like many who have walked through the valley of the shadow of death, as Scripture says, Mehner found hope through his relationship with Jesus. "There's nothing like a problem to bring you closer to God," he said. "I've been close to God for years ... I don't even remember the first time I went to church. But it does get your attention," he said of the crash. Mehner said he's been blessed with a full recovery, eating and doing most anything he did before -- including his workouts at the gym and playing pickleball. But most of all, Mehner's passion for ministry lives on. He leads a small group through LaCroix Church, attends another Bible study and is involved in a ministry with the Charleston prison. About a half dozen individuals go to the prison each week. Some of the ministries include recording the inmates reading a children's' book. The recording is sent to their children or grandchildren. They also assist with broadcasting the Global Leadership Summit to the prison and work with the inmates to pack meals through Feed My Starving Children. Mehner estimated the prison has helped pack 200,000 to 300,000 meals. "It's amazing to me how guys can leave the backgrounds that they've had and through whatever -- through some of their own efforts, hopefully through some of our efforts as far as bringing Bible messages to them -- they've become such strong Christian guys. It's amazing to me," he said, adding the inmates have been a blessing to him. On this Thanksgiving weekend, Jack Mehner is the epitome of gratefulness. Grateful to be alive. Grateful to serve. From surviving a horrific plane crash to living a life of purpose and helping others, he's certainly an inspiration. Lucas Presson is assistant publisher of the Southeast Missourian.

Linux 6.13-rc3 - Linux 6.13-rc3 Earlier this week it felt to me like things might have already started to quiet down in prep for the holidays, but doing the statistics on rc3 that doesn't actually seem to be the case - this looks very regular both in number of commits and in diff size. In fact, the diff is a bit on the larger side, but that is admittedly almost entirely due to the revert of a unicode change that then makes the diff large due to a generated data file. So everything looks normal so far. xfs may stand out in the shortlog below, but the bulk of the diff (ignoring that generated unicode table) is still mostly random driver updates. Linus - Kernel prepatch 6.13-rc3 Linus has released 6.13-rc3 for testing.

US Duo, German Win Nobel Medicine Prize James Rothman and Randy Schekman of USA and Thomas Suedhof of Germany won the Nobel Prize for Medicine for groundbreaking work on how the cell organises its transport system. James Rothman and Randy Schekman of the United States and Thomas Suedhof of Germany won the Nobel Prize for Medicine on Monday for groundbreaking work on how the cell organises its transport system. Their discoveries have unlocked insights into diseases ranging from diabetes to immune-system disorders, the Nobel Committee said. They learned how molecules that are key to the functioning of the cell are shunted around in an internal freight system, packaged in tiny bubbles called vesicles. They also helped resolve how the vesicles arrive on time and in the right place -- a major riddle, given that this takes place in a microscopic environment humming with movement. If the package fails to show up at the right time, or goes to the wrong location, this can cause cellular malfunction. "Through their discoveries, Rothman, Schekman and Suedhof have revealed the exquisitely precise control system for the transport and delivery of cellular cargo," the Nobel panel said. Schekman told AFP he was shocked to get the call from Stockholm. "My reaction when I heard about it was one of disbelief and joy," said the 64-year-old, a professor of molecular and cell biology at the University of California at Berkeley. Rothman, a 62-year-old professor and chairman of the department of cell biology at Yale University, told Swedish Radio he was "profoundly honoured" to win the prize. The trio, who are all professors at US universities, worked independently on various aspects on the vesicle system. Schekman began his research in the 1970s, when he became interested in cellular genetics, using yeast as a model for study. Yeast cells with defective transport machinery gave rise to a system that resembled a poorly planned public transport system, he discovered. Then in the 1980s and 1990s, Rothman began studying vesicle transport in mammalian cells. "He discovered that a protein complex enables vesicles to dock and fuse with their target membranes," the jury said. The binding takes place thanks to proteins that fit with each other like the two sides of a zipper. "The fact that they bind only in specific combinations ensures that cargo is delivered to a precise location," the citation read. Suedhof wanted to figure out how nerve cells communicate with one another in the brain, and went on to discover in the 1990s how the vesicles' contents are released on command -- a vital part of the signalling system within the cell. The three will share equally the prize sum of eight million Swedish kronor ($1.25 million, 925,000 euros), reduced because of the economic crisis last year from the 10 million kronor awarded since 2001. In line with tradition, the laureates will receive their prize at a formal ceremony in Stockholm on December 10, the anniversary of prize founder Alfred Nobel's death in 1896. Suedhof, 58, is a professor of molecular and cellular physiology at Stanford University. AFP

In Russia’s Sikhot-Alin mountains, two orphaned Amur tiger cubs, Boris and Svetlaya, were rescued as fragile infants. Even though they were unrelated, they were raised together in a semi-wild environment. They were carefully prepared by scientists for life in the wild and their contact with humans was limited. When they were 18 months old, the cubs were released into the wilderness, over 100 miles apart, so they could be independent. However, against all odds, Boris made an incredible 200km journey to reunite with Svetlaya. Their reunion in the wild was nothing short of incredible. Six months later, Svetlaya gave birth to a litter of cubs, marking the beginning of a new chapter. Their remarkable story serves as a powerful reminder that love and resilience can transcend species.

Municipalities Across Bulgaria Raise Local Taxes and Fees Municipalities across Bulgaria have initiated increases in local taxes and fees Excise taxes on tobacco products and alcoholic beverages, including beer, will rise in 2025 as part of a measure by the Ministry of Finance to boost government revenue. This increase is expected to make these goods more expensive for consumers. The excise tax on alcoholic drinks, including beer, is set to increase by 10 to 15%, a change that has already received approval from the majority of political forces in parliament, as well as trade unions and employer organizations, according to Finance Minister Lyudmila Petkova. Currently, excise taxes on these products in Bulgaria are at the minimum EU levels, as noted during parliamentary discussions. At present, excise taxes on alcoholic beverages vary depending on alcohol content, ranging from 90 leva to 1,100 leva per hectoliter, while wines are exempt from excise duties. Homemade brandy is taxed at 550 leva per hectoliter of pure alcohol, and beer is taxed at 1.50 leva per hectoliter, with a reduced rate of 0.75 leva for small breweries. Despite these increases, alcoholic drinks account for just 5% of total excise revenue. A more significant increase is planned for tobacco products. The Finance Ministry is proposing to fast-track the increases originally set for 2025 and 2026. Specifically, the excise tax on cigarettes will rise from 194 leva for 1,000 cigarettes to 211 leva, which will likely increase the cost of a pack by 70-80 stotinki. The excise duty on smoking tobacco will also see a hike, moving from 184 leva per kilogram to 222 leva, while the tax on heated tobacco will jump from 331 leva to 400 leva per kilogram. The excise tax will also rise for other smoking products, including those with or without nicotine, such as herbal mixtures. The Ministry expects that these accelerated increases will generate over 230 million leva in revenue in 2025. Despite these planned increases, the Ministry of Finance asserts that the rise in excise duties on alcohol and cigarettes will not have a pro-inflationary effect, meaning it will not hinder the country’s goal of maintaining 2% inflation as part of its preparations for joining the eurozone.

God Particle Scientists Win Nobel Prize Peter Higgs of Britain and Francois Englert of Belgium won the Nobel Physics Prize on Tuesday for the discovery of the "God particle" Peter Higgs of Britain and Francois Englert of Belgium won the Nobel Physics Prize on Tuesday for the discovery of the "God particle", the Higgs Boson that explains why mass exists, the jury said. The pair were honoured for "the theoretical discovery of a mechanism that contributes to our understanding of the origin of mass of subatomic particles, and which recently was confirmed through the discovery of the predicted fundamental particle," the jury said. The elusive boson was theorised by Higgs in 1964 to be what gave mass to matter as the Universe cooled after the Big Bang. Guided by the theoretical work of Higgs, Englert and others, hundreds of scientists have been on a single-minded boson quest for over three years at the CERN laboratory's atom-smashing Large Hadron Collider (LHC). On July 4 last year, physicists announced to rousing applause that they had found an elementary particle "consistent with (the) long-sought Higgs Boson" -- a scientific milestone. Last year the award went to Serge Haroche of France and David Wineland of the US for work in quantum physics that could one day open the way to revolutionary computers. In line with tradition, the laureates will receive their prize at a formal ceremony in Stockholm on December 10, the anniversary of prize founder Alfred Nobel's death in 1896. AFP

The Raspberry Pi 500 Would be a Decent Desktop ONE week ago Raspberry Pi 500 was unveiled. That's nearly 3 years since we bought a Raspberry Pi 400 for Rianne to use at work. We sold this Raspberry Pi 400 a few months ago for a price close to that for which we had purchased it. The Raspberry Pi 500 is certainly a powerful machine. It can do what most people need a computer to do, it doesn't use much electricity (this matters more when power bills are increased), it's quiet, and it doesn't take much space. Never mind the price... that's not something we should even focus on. Speaking from personal experience, the Raspberry Pi as a desktop works reasonably well. It has all the crucial ports. In my experience, the main Achilles heel is the storage and its reliability; however, with the Raspberry Pi 500 adding and working from external storage (like an external SSD drive) should be feasible and trivial. So consider giving the Raspberry Pi 500 a go. █

At Least Three Killed As Cyclone Chido Crosses Mozambique Fahad Shabbir (@FahadShabbir) Published December 16, 2024 | 08:50 AM Maputo, (APP - UrduPoint / Pakistan Point News - 16th Dec, 2024) Cyclone Chido claimed at least three lives in northern Mozambique on Sunday, bringing strong winds and heavy rain that destroyed several buildings, according to a provisional toll, after inflicting major death and destruction in France's Indian Ocean territory of Mayotte. The cyclone slammed into Mozambique's northern coastal provinces of Nampula and Cabo Delgado early Sunday, damaging buildings and knocking out power to some areas, officials said. Two people were killed in the Cabo Delgado city of Pemba and a three-year-old child was reported to have been dragged away by the storm in Nampula, the National Institute of Meteorology (INAM) said, releasing a provisional death toll. More than 2,800 people were given shelter in Pemba, it said. Mozambique's weather office said the storm was expected to bring thunderstorms and strong winds with gusts of up to 260 kilometres (160 miles) per hour to some parts of the provinces. More than 250 millimetres (10 inches) of precipitation were expected in 24 hours, it said. "In Cabo Delgado, damage has already been recorded, such as the collapse of walls and roofs," ActionAid Mozambique said in a statement a few hours after the storm arrived on the continent. The impact in Nampula's Memba district, around where the cyclone made landfall, was expected to be significant but it was out of contact, the non-government group said. "Several neighbourhoods in Nampula province are without electricity, which can make it difficult to collect information," it said. UNICEF said "many homes, schools and health facilities have been partially or completely destroyed". It was assessing the impact and would be delivering medicines, water purification supplies and other essentials, it said in a statement. By the afternoon Chido had weakened over the inland province of Niassa, said the president of the National Institute for Risk and Disaster Management, Luisa Meque. The institute had not been able to reach all regions to assess the situation, she said. Officials have warned that Chido has a similar intensity to Cyclone Gombe that killed more than 60 people in Mozambique in 2022 and Cyclone Freddy that claimed 86 lives in the country in 2023. Freddy also claimed 326 lives in Malawi, according to UN figures. More than 1.7 million people were living in Chido's projected path in Mozambique and 440,000 in Malawi, the UN's Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs said. The cyclone hit a part of northern Mozambique that is regularly battered by cyclones and is already vulnerable because of conflict and underdevelopment. Chido is expected to reach Malawi by Monday, bringing significant rainfall to the country which has been suffering from drought, and dissipate near Zimbabwe on Tuesday. The Malawi government announced it had suspended school in 15 of the country's 28 districts Monday due to the cyclone.

Prince Harry to Marry Cressida Bonas Britain's Prince Harry could wed his girlfriend Cressida Bonas next year, a media report today quoted his friends as saying. LONDON: Britain's Prince Harry could wed his girlfriend Cressida Bonas next year, a media report today quoted his friends as saying. The 29-year-old prince has his eyes set on marrying Bonas and their friends said the wedding could happen soon, according to The Telegraph. The friends said Bonas, 24, initially thought she was too young to marry Prince Harry but had finally overcome her fears about marrying into the royal family. "Cressie is going to marry Harry," one of Bonas's friends told the newspaper. "Harry never stops talking about marriage and children, and she has now got used to the idea. The wedding is likely to take place next year," the unnamed friend said. Harry is reportedly ready to the take the plunge like his older brother, Prince William, who recently welcomed his first child with the Duchess of Cambridge Kate Middleton. The prince was introduced to the British socialite in May 2012 by his cousin, Princess Eugenie of York, and was said to be "smitten". Harry has previously said he has always wanted to have children, telling American talk show host Katie Couric he is looking for the right person to settle down with. One of Bonas's friends said: "Cressida has been in floods of tears. Harry is coming on very strong, but she is all over the place. She thinks she is far too young to get married and is scared by all his talk of marriage and settling down." But Harry persisted, the report said. When he was sent to serve in Afghanistan in November, the pair were in regular telephone contact during his four-month posting. On his return, the "romance blossomed, with nights at the cinema and time spent among friends", the report said. The pair have the "same sparkling sense of fun and relish a good party", it added. Bonas studied dance at Leeds University and graduated from Trinity Laban Conservatoire earlier this year. Her family, which has direct links to Edward VII, is "bohemian and entertaining -- something the Prince is said to like about them". PTI
