FREEPORT, N.Y. — Authorities in New York are looking for the person responsible for stabbing a dog 17 times.
The dog, a 2-year-old Terrier mix who has since been named Cornell, was injured by a sharp object on Nov. 27, Nassau County District Attorney Anne Donnelly told WNBC-TV. He survived the attack but had a long road to recovery.
A woman claimed to have found the dog bleeding on a street in the Long Island village of Freeport, according to the television station. The dog did not have a collar or an identification chip, Donnelly said. There was no evidence that Cornell was part of a dogfighting ring, WNBC reported.
The woman who found the dog is not a suspect, Donnelly said.
“Cornell can’t tell us his story. He can’t tell us what happened. He can’t tell us why or when something like this happened to him,” Donnelly told WABC-TV. “We just know he was found bleeding from the 17 wounds.”
Dog found stabbed 17 times in Nassau County, $5K reward offered for information https://t.co/1rJiYJmwbx pic.twitter.com/HfMGPIGtas
— Eyewitness News (@ABC7NY) December 29, 2023
“I’ve seen some pretty horrific things but the extent of the amount of times he was stabbed is unimaginable how someone could ever do that,” Ashley Behrens, acting director of the Town of Hempstead Animal Shelter, told WPIX-TV.
The dog is now walking, jogging and thriving, barely a month after he was attacked, according to the television station.
Two-year-old terrier mix Cornell is walking, jogging, and thriving just one month after being found with 17 stab wounds across his body, according to county officials.
“Some of the stab wounds caused his lungs to leak air between his body cavity and his lungs, and they had to be drained a number of times,” Donnelly said, according to WABC. “The other stab wounds were cleaned, were either stapled or sewn.”
Donnelly said there were currently no suspects, but she said her office is seeking the public’s help to find out what happened to Cornell.
“I believe this was somebody’s pet. He’s too healthy and in too good shape to have been a street dog,” Donnelly said, according to WNBC. “We need the public’s health to help us find who did this to Cornell.”
Gary Rogers of the Nassau County SPCA echoed Donnelly’s comments.
“People start out on animals before they move into human beings,” Rogers told WPIX. “Somebody in the community knows what happened. You got to keep your community safe. You need to call the DA’s office and tell them who did this because next time you’re going to look at this it could be somebody else.”
Nassau County SPCA is offering a $5,000 reward for information that leads to an arrest and conviction, WABC reported. | https://www.kiro7.com/news/trending/dog-survives-after-being-stabbed-17-times/7UTCMVE4B5H7XPWUMMAC6N3X3U/ | 2024-01-01T03:39:14Z |
NEW DELHI, Dec 31: Asserting that India is brimming with self-confidence, Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Sunday said the country is imbued with the spirit of ‘Viksit Bharat’ and self-reliance, and urged people to maintain the momentum in 2024 as well.
In the 108th episode of Mann Ki Baat radio broadcast, Prime Minister Modi also emphasised on physical and mental health and highlighted several unique efforts for ‘Fit India’.
During the broadcast, Isha Foundation head Sadhguru Jaggi Vasudev, Indian women’s cricket team captain Harmanpreet Kaur, chess legend Vishwanathan Anand and actor Akshay Kumar shared their fitness tips.
In his remarks, Modi said, “Today, every corner of India is brimming with self-confidence, imbued with the spirit of a developed India; the spirit of self-reliance. We have to maintain the same spirit and momentum in 2024 as well.”
Noting that 2024 was just hours away, Modi said India’s achievements are the achievements of every Indian and “we have to continuously work for the development of India keeping in mind the Panch Pran”.
“Whatever work we do, whatever decision we make, our first criterion should be what will the country get from it; what benefits it will bring to the country. ‘Rashtra Pratham’ – Nation First – there is no greater mantra than this,” he asserted.
“Adhering to this mantra, we Indians will make our country developed and self-reliant. May you all reach new heights of success in 2024, may you all stay healthy, stay fit, stay immensely happy – this is my prayer. In 2024, we will once again discuss the new achievements of the people of the country,” Modi said.
During the broadcast, the prime minister listed several achievements and highs the country experienced in various spheres this year.
He pointed out that the record business on Diwali proved that every Indian is giving importance to the mantra of ‘vocal for local’.
“Even today many people are sending me messages pertaining to the success of Chandrayaan-3. I am sure that, like me, you too feel proud of our scientists and especially women scientists,” he said.
“When ‘Natu-Natu’ won the Oscar, the whole country rejoiced with fervour. Who would not have been happy to hear about the honour accorded to the ‘The Elephant Whisperers’? Through them the world saw the creativity of India and understood our bonding with the environment,” Modi said.
He pointed out that this year Indian athletes also performed marvellously in sports with Indian players winning 107 medals in Asian Games and 111 medals in Asian Para Games.
“Indian players won everyone’s heart with their performance in the Cricket World Cup. The victory of our women’s cricket team in the Under-19 T-20 World Cup is very inspiring. The achievements of players in many other sports added to the glory of the country,” Modi said.
Now Paris Olympics will be held in 2024, for which the whole country is encouraging its players, he added.
“Whenever we made efforts together, it has had a very positive impact on the development journey of our country.
“We experienced successful campaigns such as ‘Azadi Ka Amrit Mahotsav’ and ‘Meri Mati Mera Desh’. We are all witness to the participation of crores of people in them. Construction of 70,000 ‘Amrit Sarovars’ is also our collective achievement,” he said.
Modi said he has always believed that the development of a country, which does not give importance to innovation, stops.
“India becoming an innovation hub is a symbol of the fact that we are not going to stop. In 2015, we were ranked 81st in the Global Innovation Index, today our rank is 40th,” he pointed out.
Modi also underlined that this year, the number of patents filed in India was high, of which about 60 per cent were from domestic funds.
This time the highest number of Indian universities had been included in the QS Asia University Rankings, he said.
“If we start making a list of these achievements, it can never be completed. This is just a glimpse of how effective India’s potential is, we have to take inspiration from these successes of the country; these achievements of the people of the country; take pride in them, make new resolves,” Modi said.
He stressed that when India turns developed, the youth will benefit the most.
“But the youth will benefit more when they are fit,” he said.
“Nowadays we see how much talk there is about lifestyle-related diseases, it is a matter of great concern for all of us, especially the youth. For this ‘Mann Ki Baat’, I had requested all of you to send inputs related to Fit India. The response you people have given has filled me with enthusiasm,” the prime minister said.
A large number of startups have also sent suggestions on NaMo app and have discussed many of their unique efforts, Modi noted.
Through India’s efforts, 2023 was celebrated as the International Year of Millets, he said, adding that this has given a lot of opportunities to the startups working in this field.
Modi also talked about at length the importance of physical and mental health.
“I am very happy to know that Mumbai-based startups like Infi-Heal and YOUR-Dost are working to improve mental health and wellbeing. Not only that, today a technology like Artificial Intelligence is also being used for this,” he said.
He urged listeners to heed the advice and experiences of well-known people who then talked about physical and mental health during the broadcast.
While Sadhguru stated that working for an internal mental health situation or working for an equanimous chemistry within ourselves, a chemistry of peacefulness, joyfulness, and blissfulness is something that has to be brought into every individual’s life and into the cultural life of a society and nations around the world, cricketer Kaur emphasised that regular exercise and full sleep of seven hours is very important for the body and helps in staying fit.
Chess grandmaster Anand said his fitness tip to all ‘Mann Ki Baat’ listeners would be to keep calm and focus on the task ahead.
“The best fitness tip for me, absolutely the most important fitness tip, is to get a good night’s sleep. I think seven or eight hours is an absolute minimum so we should try as hard as possible to get a good night’s sleep because that is when the next day you are able to get through the day in calm fashion,” he said.
Actor Akshay Kumar advised listeners to avoid shortcuts for long-lasting fitness.
“You should change your lifestyle on the advice of doctors and not by looking at the body of a film star. Actors are often not what they look like on screen. Many types of filters and special effects are used and after seeing them, we start using wrong shortcuts to change our body.
“Nowadays, so many people take steroids and go for this six-pack or eight-pack,” he said
With such shortcuts the body swells from the outside but remains hollow from the inside, Kumar asserted.
“In this New Year, promise yourself: no chemicals, no shortcut. Exercise, yoga, good food, sleeping on time, some meditation and most importantly, happily accept the way you look. After today, don’t live a filter life, live a fitter life,” the actor said.
In his remarks, Modi also recalled the contribution of Savitribai Phule and Rani Velu Nachiyar.
He hailed Phule’s role in the fields of education and social reform and lauded Nachiyar for fighting against foreign rule and taking on the British.
During the broadcast, Modi also talked about the efforts of social worker Jagdish Trivedi.
He said Trivedi’s book “Social Audit of Social Service” is very unique.
“With accounts in it, this book is a kind of balance sheet. The complete account of how much income Bhai Jagdish Trivedi ji received from particular programs in the last six years and where it was spent is given in the book,” Modi said.

Or should I just assume this is a bad idea and avoid any further conversations that aren’t related to work.
Illustration/Uday Mohite
I have been working at an office with a girl I really like, and happened to mention this to a colleague who promptly told her this. Things have been very awkward since then because I have been trying to avoid any interaction with her. She hasn’t said anything and always smiles at me, which makes me wonder if she isn’t angry about what she has been told. I want to just be direct and ask her out, but also worry about her reaction. Should I wait for a while and then talk to her? Or should I just assume this is a bad idea and avoid any further conversations that aren’t related to work.
Telling someone how you feel about them isn’t a crime, even if offices have their own policies about romantic interactions between colleagues. If you feel strongly about this, you should ask her out for coffee and be direct, provided she agrees to meet outside work. At best, this will clear the air and prevent further awkwardness. If she refuses, and you want to keep things professional, you can still tell her that your intention to meet for coffee was to clear the air. Explain why you would like to avoid awkwardness and move on. You may be amazed at how easily things can be resolved by two people choosing to behave like mature adults.
How do I prepare myself for ending a relationship? Should I tell my partner that I am okay with us staying friends to avoid any unpleasantness or anger?
If you don’t want someone in your life, you shouldn’t promise to stay friends just to avoid any unnecessary embarrassment. If this isn’t working, you presumably have your reasons, and should be able to explain what they are. If your partner disagrees, and chooses to react with anger, you should be able to bear the brunt of that in the interests of doing what is best for you. Staying friends is great, but only if you both genuinely want it to happen.

Pritam makes mother’s dream come true
Renowned Bollywood music director Pritam recently accomplished a heartfelt gesture by fulfilling his mother Anuradha Chakraborty's long-cherished dream of visiting London and Paris. Despite Anuradha's physical limitations, Pritam orchestrated a trip to the two iconic cities, allowing his ailing mother to explore them from a wheelchair.
Anuradha had expressed her desire to witness the beauty of London and Paris at least once in her lifetime. However, due to health concerns, her aspiration seemed unattainable. Undefeated by these challenges, Pritam decided to make his mother's dream a reality, believing where there's a will, there's a way.
The musician documented the memorable trip through a video compilation, showcasing glimpses of Anuradha's tour across England and France, accompanied by her entire family. Alongside the video, Pritam penned a touching message detailing the journey.
Pritam revealed, "Years ago, my mother had expressed her longing to experience London and Paris. Despite my father's health issues and subsequent passing, my mother remained by his side, diligently caring for him. Even amidst her responsibilities, she refrained from pursuing necessary knee surgery."
Highlighting the challenging circumstances, he added, "After my father's demise, the pandemic struck. Due to her age, medical procedures for my mother's knee became improbable. Despite her confinement to a wheelchair, we made the decision to take her on this journey."
Expressing gratitude and concern for his mother's well-being during the trip, Pritam admitted, "We were quite apprehensive about her health, but witnessing the sheer joy on her face was immeasurable. They (his family) took on the responsibility of ensuring her comfort throughout this holiday."
Pritam's inspiring act struck a chord with many online users. Comments poured in, praising his devotion and urging others to prioritise fulfilling their parents' wishes while they're able, resonating with the sentiment of cherishing precious moments without delay. | https://www.thedailystar.net/entertainment/music/news/pritam-makes-mothers-dream-come-true-3506521 | 2024-01-01T03:39:18Z |
London has welcomed in the New Year with a spectacular display of light, color, and plenty of noise.
While fireworks formed the heart of the display, which took place over the River Thames within sight of Big Ben and the Houses of Parliament, organizers also deployed drones to dazzle the huge crowd as well as those watching at home.
The show kicked off with the LED-equipped drones performing the countdown to midnight:
Later the drones were deployed again for several stunning animation sequences:
For anyone keen to see the entire 15-minute display, here it is:
The displays are made possible by computer software that allows planners to design elaborate routes for each drone, enabling them to create striking images and animations.
Using drones costs less money than fireworks, creates less noise, and eliminates smoke pollution, prompting an increasing number of event organizers to look more closely at using the flying machines instead.
However, the co-director of a company that produced the incredible fireworks show in London on Sunday night said recently that the drawback with drones is that they need time to get into position between sequences. Titanium Fireworks’ Darryl Fleming added that using both methods is a great solution as the fireworks can fill in the gaps when the drones go dark while maneuvering into position for the next sequence.
A recent Christmas display in Texas used nearly 1,500 drones to create an astonishing display that flew straight into the record books for the size of the images that it created in the night sky. | https://www.digitaltrends.com/space/watch-london-see-in-2024-with-drones-and-fireworks/ | 2024-01-01T03:39:20Z |
In a year where I took countless images, one photo really stands out for me.
My top photo this year is of local photomedia artist, Brittany Hefren.
This was significant to me as I am close friends with the artist, but I also got to write the accompanying story.
The story was about Britt's exhibition 'Windows of Wondering' at Wagga Art Gallery.
Being familiar with Britt and her work, I felt confident that I could write something to do it justice.
As a photographer and artist myself, I always love having the opportunity to cover exhibitions. I love meeting fellow artists, and taking a look behind the scenes of their practice.
As a photographer, I don't usually write stories but had been looking for a chance to try it out.
The story made the front page and I decided to retire from writing with my 100 per cent front page record.

The victim, who has not been identified, was transported to Jackson Memorial Hospital and was originally listed in critical condition, according to WFOR-TV. The victim has since been upgraded to stable condition, investigators told the television station.
During Arrendell’s court appearance on Saturday, the judge ruled that Arrendell would be held without bond, according to WPLG-TV. | https://www.kiro7.com/news/trending/tire-shop-owner-accused-shooting-landscaper-who-blew-leaves-onto-property/JTNTIP5L75ARBN5YW6AF2T5ZU4/ | 2024-01-01T03:39:20Z |

A young man who allegedly hit 220km/h as he tried to outrun a Riverina highway patrol car should never have been on the road in the first place, according to police.
The 24-year-old Victorian, who police say later returned a positive result for methamphetamine in a roadside drug test, came to the attention of patrolling Griffith officers on the Sturt Highway.
He was allegedly detected travelling at 150km/h on the 110km/h highway west of Hay around 9.30am on Friday.
However, instead of stopping when police hit their warning lights, the green 2006 Ford Falcon allegedly sped off.
Police began a pursuit of the vehicle, which they say reached 220km/h before the chase ultimately ended 18 kilometres later in Hay.
Despite bearing South Australia registration plates, the Falcon was not registered and the driver was a disqualified learner from Victoria.
"[The driver] tested positive for methamphetamine during a roadside drug test," police said.
"Additionally, a knife was discovered in the vehicle."
Further testing results are pending.
The man was charged with driving while disqualified and dangerous driving and not stopping in a police pursuit. He is not to occupy the driver's seat of a vehicle, police said, and is due before Hay Local Court in February.
He was also issued fines for speeding, driving an unregistered vehicle, and knife offences. | https://www.dailyadvertiser.com.au/story/8473053/driver-hits-220kmh-in-sturt-highway-pursuit-near-hay-allegedly-fails-drug-test/ | 2024-01-01T03:39:26Z |
Renowned pakhawaj player Pandit Bhavani Shankar dies
Pandit Bhavani Shankar, renowned as the Pakhawaj maestro, passed away yesterday (December 30). His family has officially confirmed the news and notified that his 'rasam kriya' (Hindu rituals after death) is scheduled to take place on December 31, starting from 12 pm in Borivali.
Shankar had just concluded a program on December 26 when he started experiencing difficulty breathing. He was promptly taken to the hospital, where treatment commenced. Unfortunately, his organs, including his kidneys, gradually ceased functioning, leading to the necessity of placing him on a ventilator. He breathed his last on Saturday afternoon.
Vocalist Soma Ghosh paid tribute to Bhawani Shankar, stating to ETimes, "Bhavani Shankar ji is synonymous with the 'Pakhawaj,' much like Ust Bismillah Khan was with the 'Shehnai.'"
"I had the good fortune of working with him when we worked on the one and only bhajan album 'Aradhana', composed by the Shehnai Legend, Bharat Ratna Ust Bismillah Khan. Recently, last month, I met Bhawani ji again and later he called me a number of times, saying that we have to work again on a project! I guess this one last wish will remain unfulfilled. The world will miss this warm-hearted maestro - Rest in peace dear Bhawani Shankar ji," she expressed
Shankar, born into a musical family, initiated his study of pakhawaj and tabla at the young age of eight. Throughout his career, he collaborated with various Indian artists, including bansuri player Hariprasad Chaurasia, santoor player Shiv Kumar Sharma, and tabla players Zakir Hussain and Anindo Chatterjee. His early exposure to pakhawaj was influenced by his father, the renowned Kathak performer Babulalji. | https://www.thedailystar.net/entertainment/music/news/renowned-pakhawaj-player-pandit-bhavani-shankar-dies-3507101 | 2024-01-01T03:39:25Z |

Here's one for the marriage counselors and divorce attorneys. Over on Reddit's ever popular Am I the AH subreddit, a woman asks if she's justified asking for a deal in return for becoming a housewife. Everyone in her life says she's being greedy.
My husband and I (both 35) have been married for 6 years and we have 2 children together and 1 on the way. He said that he wanted me to be a housewife and stop working.
I was very disturbed by that but he explained that it was better for our family and children since he can afford very good living. After a few weeks thinking I told him that I would agree but only if I get 1/2 his company.
He was surprised by this but I explained further that the more I stay at home the less chance I would have to find a well paying job should we ever divorce because I would have less merits, while he would stay making more money each year.
So I want half of the company. If we never divorce, which is the goal of all marriages, then it wouldn’t matter. But should it end, it would be the price of me staying home and raising our children so he could be less worried and stressed out (his words, that he would be less anxious and stressed out if he knew they were with me rather than with strangers in daycare or nannies).
When I told my friends they called me the AH. My best friend was very angry and called me disgusting. So I am taken aback a little.
Commenters did not agree with the people in OP's life.
Playful_Robot_5599
NTA. To me, this sounds reasonable for exactly the reasons you've given.
You don't want to be the bitter woman finding out in her 50s that waiting tables is her only option because her professional career skills have passed their due date, and your husband has moved on.
You don't want to be trapped in a loveless or even abusive marriage because you're financially dependent.
And you don't want to be a SAHM begging her husband for an allowance.
Cassowary32
There was a recent AITA by a woman who spent 30 years unmarried with her partner raising their 4 children as a SAHM. Unmarried! So no alimony, SS security benefits, no share of his retirement account, no name on any deed.
He finally proposed after 30 years then changed his mind, saying it wouldn't benefit him. I think she was in an abusive relationship but didn't even know it.
OP, both of you should benefit from the arrangement, now and in the future, you need protection. Divorce is expensive and as much as guys like to complain about losing money, single motherhood is more likely to put you below the poverty line after a divorce especially if there's a gap in your resume. NTA.
Hi_Im_Dadbot
NTA. He’s asking you to make a sacrifice for the sake of the company, so equity in the company is appropriate compensation for this.
If you never get divorced then no worries. If you do, then the extra attention he’s able to give to the business due to your taking on the domestic roles benefits both of you equally, as it should.
Attempted-Catharsis
This isn’t even uncommon and I’ve seen it many times in my line of work.
Often the spouse holds 49% but there are built in buy out conditions so that in the event of a divorce the partner running the business can buy out their partner over time for market value (determined by a mutually agreed expert to prevent someone being disadvantaged).
It’s not that radical of a suggestion
Sunrunner2021
NTA and you shouldn't bend on this. You have as much a right to a secure financial future as he does. If he won't do this, he can't afford you or he is looking to create a power imbalance that puts you at a disadvantage.
In future, keep your marital business to yourself. Your friends don't get a vote.
BendPresent1437
NTA. I'm a man and I see nothing wrong with your request, you're just protecting yourself and your future in case things go south. You have every right to have financial security.
Agnostalypse
My wife and I have a company together. I have a business degree and used to run my own consulting company. When I set our new business up, everything went in my wife’s name.
This wasn’t to place the burden of risk on her- I never let the company incur any type of debt. I just want to know she is taken care of if anything happens to me and that she doesn’t have to see my name on every little thing/go through the pain of removing it in the event that I die an untimely death.
EDIT: To those who are telling me I did this for selfish reasons- I'm not going to divulge further personal info on a public forum just to validate myself. I'm sorry you are in a place in life where you see negativity in everything. I've been there, still dealing with it, and I know it sucks.
SadFlatworm1436
NTA and I think that’s a great solution ….if he’s serious about his reasoning your option makes perfect sense.
Ms_SkyNet
Maybe your best friend is jealous. I think this is a brilliant idea and very fair.
Pitagrape
Definitely NTA, but there's more to it than that.
Your friends can think whatever they want, what matters is what your husband thinks, and does.
Your suggestion of him giving half his company isn't unreasonable. But also hopefully the company was formed under an LLC, which also helps protect the family assets (if sued, etc). If it isn't, it may be a good time to create this structure.
Winter-eyed
Is your bestie salty because she is waiting for you to pop out the children then seduce your husband who will leave you with nothing? Cause a friend is supposed to look out for your wellbeing not suffer outrage on behalf of your husband for asking for fair compensation for sacrificing your career and financial stability to take on the domestic responsibilities.
Get a better bestie. That one is suspect. | https://www.someecards.com/lifestyle/marriage/he-says-be-a-housewife-she-says-give-me-half-your-company-aita/ | 2024-01-01T03:39:29Z |

Documentary about Denis Ten to be released on Feb 23
The film tells about the way Denis was preparing for the fourth last ice show "Denis and Friends". The event was held on June 9, 2018, at the Barys Arena in Astana.
"It is the first and only global-scale ice show in Kazakhstan. Stars from all over the world came for the show. The main goal of Denis was to develop figure skating in Kazakhstan, demonstrate world-class level to our people and thereby inspire them," Gaukhar Omar, Executive Director of the Denis Ten Foundation, said before the screening.
According to her, Denis felt great trepidation and warmth about this project with. He personally invited, met all his friends and prepared gifts for them.
The film "Denis Ten - the Greatest Show" contains an interview of Denis and such famous figure skaters as Nobunari Oda, Yelena Radionova, Carolina Kostner, Bruno Massot, Aljona Savchenko, and others. They share their impressions about Kazakhstan and in general about the show. In the episodes of the film, one can also notice famous Kazakh singer Dimash Qudaibergen, who recorded a song specifically for Denis.
Besides, young filmmaker, editor and cameraman Hanzat Kenes also worked for the creation of the last show. The film choreographer is Canadian figure skater Shae-Lynn Bourne. Filming took place in Toronto, Canada.
It should be mentioned that the film screening will be held through March 3 at the Bekmambetov Cinema in Almaty. It is organized jointly with the Denis Ten Foundation.
It is to be recalled that Denis Ten died in Almaty on July 19, 2018. | https://en.inform.kz/news/documentary-about-denis-ten-to-be-released-on-feb-23_a3500798/ | 2024-01-01T03:39:32Z |
Group Nine clubs still want to have under 16s as part of their senior game days.
Plans coming down from NSW Rugby League to move the age group back to the juniors for the 2025 season were revealed by new Group Nine president Mark Daly in The Daily Advertiser.
Faced with the prospect of losing one fifth of their current numbers, not one club supported the move.
"It's absolute madness," Gundagai secretary Martin Hay said.
"A few years ago we didn't have under 16s and I did the sums on it and the under 16s are about 27 per cent of your gate and if they think women's league is going to replace that I'll be proven incorrect but I can't understand it."
Group Nine juniors are also not pushing for the change to the Sullivan Cup competition.
The suggestion would be that women's tackle, either open or under 17s, would come instead.
However Southcity president Greg Wiscombe raised concerns about the bigger transition for the boys going to under 18s if they under 16s went to the junior league.
Instead he suggested leaguetag be replaced by women's tackle instead of losing the Sullivan Cup.
"I'd prefer the leaguetag to go," Wiscombe said.
"If they are going to have a pathway to tackle I think tag is probably the one.
"I know it's good for the younger girls but if there is genuinely going to be a pathway in rugby league for women that's the one that should go."
Plans to introduce an open women's tackle competition next season have had a mixed response.
While Young and Junee are confident they have enough interest to field a side, a number are hopeful while others like Gundagai and Temora aren't expected to have enough interest.
Gundagai were the first to inform the Group they won't be taking part in the eight-week season.
"I've already told Group Nine we won't be fielding a side in the tackle, we haven't got enough interested players and it's probably years away," Hay said.
"We struggled to field a leaguetag side so we just won't find any."
Temora president Jack Morton also doesn't believe there is a lot of interest out of the leaguetag premiers at this stage.
"Girls tackle is going to happen but it's a knee jerk reaction for it to happen next year," Morton said.
"It will definitely happen but it is just a matter of the girls coming out of the junior league."
Tumut are hopeful of having enough interest coming off the back of the Tumut Pub Nines competition adding women into their mix in 2024.
Albury feels they are in a similar position with women's tackle options currently in Wodonga.
"I think it will be very interesting the nines," president Neville Stratton said.
"They seem to reckon they will get a side but it's not going to happen overnight as with the junior rugby league it's a big gap and down here it will take a few years to get going."
Brothers are also unsure of interest from within their existing leaguetag players but secretary Zac Wilson did not know of any outside interest at this stage.
However Young are already on the front foot following foot with sponsors already on board as well as a coach locked in.
President Josh Powderly believes their proximity to existing women's tackle competitions is a big benefit.
"We've got good numbers and we're really looking forward to it," Powderly said.
"There's girls that would normally be playing in the Canberra comp from Young that will stay and play here, which is good, there's leaguetag girls who will play tackle, there's some very excited girls and some girls who don't normally play leaguetag who will play tackle."
However Powderly would prefer the tackle team to complement the current structure of the competition.
"I think the current format with the 16s in the senior league," he said.
"It's always been like that and I think it's a good fit as once kids hit 16 they are well and truly ready to be amongst the senior guys and there's still room for the girls tackle as well."
Junee are also confident they have enough interest for both leaguetag and tackle teams.
"I think it is a good structure to trial it through the year to get it up off the ground and get it happening," president David Holt said.
"It's a good way to go about building the competition."

Documentary about Iranian Kazakhs goes online
ASTANA. KAZINFORM Kanat Beisekeyev, Kazakh-born filmmaker, and Qazaqstan TV Channel present a new film about the Kazakhs living in Iran, Kazinform reports.
"As many as 100 Kazakh families are living in the Iranian city of Gorgan to date. In 1927-35, due to a complicated situation in the historical motherland, they were forced to move and find shelter in Iran. These families are thankful to the Iranian people," Beisekeyev posted on his Instagram account.
Unfortunately, both Kanat Beisekeyev and cameraman Nursultan Beikenov were detained by local law-enforcement structures during the film production, because they had no official permission for shooting from Iranian authorities. The film footage and equipment worth $13,000 were confiscated. | https://en.inform.kz/news/documentary-about-iranian-kazakhs-goes-online_a3496284/ | 2024-01-01T03:39:39Z |
Sporty Dancer is out to end a 19-month winless run to kick start the new year for Leeton trainer-driver Todd Prest.
The mare will have just her fourth start since her last win as Prest looks to claim his hometown feature on Monday.
Sporty Dancer was second in the 2022 edition of the Leeton Pacers Cup when beaten by Nerano, who won two heats of the Inter Dominion in December.
Prest is hoping she can go one better.
"It would be very nice," Prest said.
She has drawn eight in the Leeton Pacers Cup and after injuries have plagued her promising career, Prest hopes the barrier draw will be a big boost to her chances of a breakthrough.
"It's a very good draw, I was happy with the draw as she's in the running line and hopefully she won't be too far off them," he said.
Sporty Dancer has only had two starts since suffering a tendon injury during a Queensland campaign in June 2022.
The first was in August before she needed more time off after injuring herself in the paddock.
She was then seventh in the Stayers Cup at Dubbo in December when things didn't go quite to plan.
However Prest expects she will have taken plenty of benefit from the performance.
"It wasn't too bad," he said.
"We went round to the death as I thought Ripp would give me a bit of cover but it didn't and she got a bit keen.
"That last 50 to 100 caught up with her but she pulled up pretty good from the run and has trained on it so I'm pretty happy with how she is.
"If she settled she would have run second easy but she just didn't settle in the run and was a bit keen first up."
Sporty Dancer has won 14 of her 34 starts including a group three win as well as being placed in the group one Queensland Oaks.
Prest is looking to target the cup circuit in the Riverina before deciding on what's next for the mare.
"I'll just see how she goes in the cups and then work it out from there as to whether we press on and go to Sydney or what we do," he said.
It will be a busy night for Prest who also lines up Likeable Rogue and Sporty Lou.
He hopes Likeable Rogue can take advantage of barrier two to kick start the eight-race meeting while drawing one is a boost to Sporty Lou's chances of a breakthrough in the last race of the night.
Ellen Jones dominates the field for the $14,994 cup for up to 100 pacers.
She has four runners in the race including last-start winner Glenledi Elvis. | https://www.dailyadvertiser.com.au/story/8473240/sporty-dancer-aims-to-end-winless-run-in-leeton-pacers-cup/ | 2024-01-01T03:39:39Z |
Acclaimed ‘Shaaticup’ director turns up with new project
With an entirely new setting, unfamiliar faces, and Through seven gripping episodes, Mohammad Touqir Islam's directorial "Shaaticup" managed to captivate audiences both at home and abroad, holding their attention fixed on the unfolding drama.
Now, after patiently awaiting the feedback of both viewers and critics for two years, Touqir is set to make a return to the screen, this time in Rajshahi, with his latest creation – "Sinpaat". Collaborating with a talented local team from Rajshahi, "Sinpaat" promises to be an original series under the banner of Chorki.
Touqir, an alumnus of the Delhi Asian School of Cinema and Media Studies, has been actively involved in filmmaking in Rajshahi, producing outstanding series with local talent. Known for his unique taste in content, Touqir hints at "Sinpaat" shining even brighter than its predecessor, featuring distinctive stories, new faces, and an anticipated brilliance that remains to be unveiled.
Curiosity arises regarding the choice of the series name "Sinpaat", and Touqir Islam sheds light on the matter, stating, "We contemplated extensively on the series name. Although numerous names were initially considered, one day, 'Sinpaat' emerged suddenly. The term primarily stems from the perspective of our protagonist, Sohel. It is a local term from Pabna, reflecting the essence of our work."
Reflecting on the changes in his life after the production of "Shaaticup", Touqir shared, "Many new friends have entered our lives, and our work has garnered recognition. This has also opened up numerous opportunities for us."
In "Sinpaat", Touqir continues to collaborate with local actors, emphasising the advantages and disadvantages of working with new talents. He stated, "The experience of working with new people goes back to childhood. Working with new individuals allows us to learn new techniques and gain fresh experiences. Additionally, our main cast this time is entirely new, and shaping them has taken some time."
"'Shaaticup' and 'Sinpaat' are distinct works. Therefore, each will bring its own uniqueness. The audience will be the ultimate judge of where the main difference lies," concluded the director. | https://www.thedailystar.net/entertainment/tv-film/news/acclaimed-shaaticup-director-turns-new-project-3506531 | 2024-01-01T03:39:41Z |

Tumut trainer Kerry Weir is hoping three will be his lucky number to start the new year.
After winning the last two editions of the Adelong Cup with Crocodile Cod, Weir lines up three chances to make it three in a row in the race at Gundagai on Monday.
Weir will be represented by Agrimony, Horace and Red Hill in the $15,000 feature.
Red Hill takes the best numerical form into the race with seconds in two of his last three starts, including when resuming from a freshen up at Tumut last week, as well as a win at Young five starts back.
Josh Richards will take the ride with the pair to start from barrier one.
Kayla Nisbet, who combined with Weir to take out the feature in 2023, will partner Agrimony while Jake Barrett will ride Horace.
It is part of a strong hand for the Tumut horseman who had a winner on his home track on Boxing Day.
Fuji Hero is looking to make it back-to-back wins to finish the five-race program while Weir also has Snico and She's Apples One in the 1000-metre maiden to start the meeting as well Lightening Blaze and Geez Louise in the 1400-metre maiden.
It comes after Richards and Emma Ly both had winning doubles at Corowa on Saturday.
Ly scored her first win for master Donna Scott as Soo Kiss Me broke through for a maiden win right after taking out the opening race with Zuurberg for Kevin Hanley.
Richards won with Bowled Roamer for Wagga trainer Scott Spckman before combining with Michael Travers aboard Miss White. | https://www.dailyadvertiser.com.au/story/8473269/tumut-trainer-kerry-weir-targets-adelong-cup-hat-trick/ | 2024-01-01T03:39:46Z |
COLOGNE, Germany - Police on Dec 31 detained three further suspects in an alleged Islamist plot to attack Germany's famed Cologne Cathedral on New Year's Eve, authorities said.
The alleged attackers had planned to use a car to attack the 800-year-old Gothic edifice by the Rhine river, Cologne police director Frank Wissbaum told a news conference.
The method of the planned attack was unclear, but an underground car park below the cathedral had been searched with explosives sniffer dogs overnight, he told reporters.
"The three people are now securely in custody, which we are very glad about since they can no longer communicate with each other," he said.
Mr Wissbaum said investigators had found evidence late on Saturday that linked the three to a 30-year-old Tajik man with alleged ties to the Islamic State militant movement, who has been in custody since Dec 24.
Federal authorities were continuing their investigation into what he termed a "network of individuals" from Central Asia with links to several German states and European countries.
No details were given on the identity or background of the people now in custody.
The suspects were detained in the western cities of Duisburg, Herne and Noervenich, police said, and communications devices were seized during searches of their apartments.
Security has been stepped up in and around the cathedral ahead of a New Year's Eve service. Police warned the public not to be concerned if they saw officers carrying machine guns and body armour.
Thousands of extra police are also patrolling in Berlin, where celebrations last year were overshadowed by violent clashes, with revellers barracking first responders attempting to reach the sick.
Police in the capital are also on guard after a pro-Palestinian solidarity demonstration scheduled for midnight was banned. Many Muslims in Germany are unhappy with the support shown for Tel Aviv in its war against Hamas.

All the achievements of Jaya Ahsan this year
The year 2023 marked a splendid year for the renowned actress Jaya Ahsan. In addition to making her debut in Bollywood, she gained a series of accolades for her exceptional performance in "Ardhangini" and celebrated a decade in Tollywood.
Let's take a look at some of the remarkable achievements that the actress has accumulated this year.
Jaya Ahsan poured her heart and soul into her role as a circus performer in "Beauty Circus". Critics were utterly captivated by her performance, resulting in her winning the Best Actress Award at the National Film Awards 2022. This achievement marked a significant milestone, as it led to her securing the National Award for the fifth time.
As a Bangladeshi actress, she has firmly cemented her presence in Indian Bengali cinema. This year, her collaboration with Kaushik Ganguly and Srijit Mukherji generated considerable buzz. Her nuanced and charming performance in "Ardhangini" and her portrayal of a fierce and robust character in "Dawshom Awbotaar", released during Durga Puja, carved a special place in the hearts of Indian audiences.
Jaya Ahsan had a bustling schedule in India this year, dividing her time between film shoots, advocating for movie releases, and attending premieres. She traveled to Mumbai, Kolkata, and Delhi to partake in the premiere events for her debut Hindi film, "Kadak Singh". She received high acclaim in Indian newspapers, including being named one of the 'breakout performers' by Hindustan Times for her Hindi film.
Four films featuring Jaya Ahsan were showcased at the 54th edition of the International Film Festival of India, including "Kadak Singh", "Ardhangini", "Putul Nacher Itikotha", and "Fereshta". Notably, this marked the first time that her Iranian film premiered at this prestigious film festival.
Throughout her illustrious career, Jaya Ahsan has adhered to a single motto – her love for acting. "I am an artiste by choice, and this is something I want to pursue passionately with all my heart. I intend to remain dedicated to acting for the rest of my life because it completes me," expressed the actress." | https://www.thedailystar.net/entertainment/tv-film/news/all-the-achievements-jaya-ahsan-year-3506576 | 2024-01-01T03:39:48Z |
MANILA -- The health department on Monday reported 231 fireworks-related injuries (FWRI) after the New Year festivities.
Of the 231 cases, 116 came in the wake of the recently-concluded New Year festivities -- the first since COVID-19 lockdown restrictions were totally eased, and the first since the COVID-19 state of emergency globally was lifted.
"While we welcome the removal of restrictions, we saw that at their peak we had the lowest number of FWRIs. Our data shows that we have a new hope this year for less injuries by going for community fireworks displays across the nation," the Department of Health said in a statement.
Around 49 percent or 113 of the total cases came from Metro Manila, followed by Central Luzon (27), and the Ilocos Region (24.)
Majority, or 93 percent of the cases happened at home and in the streets, and the injuries involved a mix of legal but mostly illegal fireworks such as 5-star, Boga, Piccolo, and Pla-Pla.
The youngest victim is an 11-month-old baby from Metro Manila whose face and right eye were "burned by an illegal piccolo," while a 76-year-old man from the Ilocos Region suffered injuries to his right eye due to a kwitis.
Three people were amputated on New Year's day, bringing the total to 11.
Some local government units earlier imposed strict bans on firecrackers in their respective cities.
The health department warned that the number of fireworks-related injuries may still rise as they receive more reports.

Fan initiatives will contribute to charitable causes dear to V's heart. Yet, this only scratches the surface! Social media platforms are buzzing with birthday greetings, fan-created art, and heartfelt tributes.
Taehyung has been revealed as the official brand ambassador for Compose Coffee, a beloved coffee house with a broad presence. Currently, preparations are in progress to adorn all 2,414 'Compose Coffee' outlets across the country. Anticipation is also building for the upcoming launch of the 'V drink,' accompanied by specially designed cup holders and soon-to-be-aired television commercials.
Thailand's BTS ARMY is hosting CAPTAIN V RADIO, a special event dedicated to BTS member V. The broadcast will air on Easy FM 105.5 MHz, a Thai radio station, allowing fans to revisit V's moments as a DJ, listening to his stories and music. The event is scheduled for December 29-30, 2023, with specific time slots outlined for each day.
Last year, Baidu Viva, V's largest fan club in China, celebrated his birthday by introducing two charitable projects. To pay tribute to V, Baidu Viva symbolically adopted animals at Hongshan Forest Zoo in Nanjing, China, using V's name and those of his fans. Additionally, Chinese fans contributed funds to support women's health through the 'Pink Ribbon Campaign.' This year, they aim to continue these benevolent initiatives with increased enthusiasm and fresh ideas.
The Japanese fan club Miku is organizing a light show at the Sapporo TV Tower in Sapporo. Meanwhile, closer to home, V INSIDE and BTS V UNION have established a special birthday sculpture and photo zone near the HYBE building.
Thailand's iconic Empire Tower, home to the country's tallest office building, will be adorned with a birthday celebration for BTS' V. This spectacular display on a dazzling LED screen will run from December 25th to 31st.
Though fans couldn't be physically present when V began his military duty at the Nonsan Army Training Center on December 11, it didn't stop them from sending a heartfelt message. Even from a distance, V felt their love and support through a specially decorated bus adorned with birthday wishes and well-being notes. | https://www.thedailystar.net/entertainment/tv-film/news/bts-vs-birthday-global-cafe-events-bus-projects-armys-plan-surprises-his-birthday-3506351 | 2024-01-01T03:39:56Z |
Me and my fiancé have been together for almost 5 years, engaged for 6 months. We’ve never had issues where one of us was mad for a long time until this, and he, my mom and friends think that I’m overreacting.
I had a dream some nights ago that I ended up dating a famous actor by accident. We’ve both had dreams where crazy things happened and told each other about it. I told him in the morning, and we laughed about it, however, he made a comment about how my dreams are always extremely delusional.
I asked him to elaborate, thinking it would be something funny, and instead was met with a comment about how I wouldn’t be capable of pulling someone half as attractive as said actor, let alone him.
I was taken aback, and he doubled down and told me to be realistic, that most men wouldn’t even look my way because I look like I’m already taken and stopped looking interesting some time ago, and now even more with the engagement.
I told him that I don’t want any men to look my way, but the implication of his words hurt me. He told me it was irrelevant because we’re together and I wouldn’t leave him, and to stop being offended over something I asked, and left.
For the record, my weight, hair and general appearance have stayed the same, and I’m lowkey high maintenance, so this isn’t me letting go or something.
I called my mom for reassurance, and she agreed I was overreacting. I called my friends for the same purpose and was met with the same response. I feel very hurt because I love my fiancé and find him very attractive, and I know other people do.
I am grateful that he chose to be with me, and that makes me value him even more. I thought he thought the same about me, but apparently he thinks I wouldn’t ever leave him because I can’t pull anybody? That somehow is making me feel like he doesn’t value me as I do. And worst of all, that I may be wrong for how I feel but can’t control it.
Am I overreacting? If so, how can I manage this so this doesn’t affect us long term? It’s been almost a week and he is still being short with me because “I look like I’m miserable about a petty thing.” I just want things to go back to normal.
ETA: The actor was Adam Driver, I’ve had a few DMs asking this. In case it is relevant.
ETA2: My closest friend group is a 4 girls group, where I’m the only one with a relationship/that has been in one. Another detail someone messaged me to include. I do have other friends, but I haven’t told them anything given the response I got from my closest circle.
Finally, I have a loooong history of being super sensitive. I’ve cried over minor things my whole life, which is why is not surprising for my closest ones to immediately call me out on it. I’m on therapy addressing that, my pushover nature and my self esteem issues.
Thank you to everyone that has commented and given me support and reassurance. I will be forcing him to talk to me today, to see if this is in any way salvageable or if I just lost half a decade of my life lol.
The comments were fully in favor of this woman breaking up with her fiance and trying to find her real life Adam Driver.
McKittenMan
I don't know what your friends or mom are on. But I think that is an AH of a comment to make to your future wife:
Be happy you're with me because you wouldn't be able to pull anyone else.
That's an insult if you ask me.
Maybe I could have got past it if he apologized afterwards, instead he doubled down and said you're overreacting and should get over it.
OP
I felt insulted! However they insist that he is just being playful, and that I take things too personally. They also implied that it’s irrelevant too, because I’m taken and don’t need to pull anyone per se.
AuntyVenom
"that most men wouldn’t even look my way because I look like I’m already taken and stopped looking interesting some time ago, and now even more with the engagement."
Um, what? You stopped looking interesting some time ago...? Sounds like he's trying to dent your self esteem, tbh, so you do think you can't do better & never leave him.
Pretty negging thing of him to say, kind of demeaning to you as a woman. Interesting that your mom says you're overreacting; where you raised by someone who also tried to take you down a notch?
OP
My parents never took me down in terms of appearance, but they do think I take everything personally and don’t let go petty stuff.
Songof
Adam Driver is a regular looking man. Do I think he’s attractive? Hell yes I do. Do I think he wouldn’t be sleeping with “mid” women if he weren’t famous? Hell no. The man looks like if a dog turned into a human.
Your fiancé sucks. Your mom sucks. Your friends suck. I’m seeing a pattern here and you’re not the problem. Having a wet dream about an actor does NOT mean you deserve ridicule. Being engaged does NOT give your partner the right to belittle you.
He thinks you can’t leave him? Prove him wrong.
A little later, and OP returned with an update. Watch out Adam Driver.
Hi everyone, I’ve been getting messages regarding my previous post and also people asking how I’m doing. I’m doing good, and I would like to thank everyone who took the time to comment, reassure me and even share resources for me.
The TL/DR is that I’m going into the holidays as a single woman. Did try to talk it out and solve it like adults but my ex was uncooperative and childish, to say the least.
For those of you who want the details here goes:
First, you gave me the courage to reach out to my other friends outside my closest circle, and they were shocked by what happened and told me not to brush it off.
They echoed many of your comments, and even called it negging too. Also, my therapist backed up my feelings and said I needed a straight-up chat with my partner and to set some clear boundaries and decide what’s best for me and what I wish to enforce as my non-negotiables.
Second, I did follow someone’s advice and started going out more with my supportive friends. My birthday actually fell in between these dates and I decided to celebrate it by bar hopping in my city and it went great.
My ex was invited (we were still together at that point) and was sulking the whole time because I did get external attention (which I shut down).
Finally, what happened with my now ex. After talking with my therapist, I did explain my feelings to him again and reiterated that those comments will not be tolerated if we were to continue in the relationship.
I also said we needed counseling as a couple because this could stem from insecurities from both sides. He did not apologize, but rather justified his actions under three arguments, and yes, these came from a 28 year old man:
I do look less interesting, and it’s unfair to use my birthday as an example of me attracting anyone because I was “catfishing” as a younger woman, as the girls I invited are mostly 22-24.
Adam Driver (the actor I dreamt about) is taller than him. We’re both 5’7 and he is insecure about it, so dreaming with people taller than him is disrespectful and emasculating.
Even if (his words) I’m objectively attractive, ever since I started therapy I became “cocky” and “more demanding”, so he took the chance to “bring me back to earth”.
All of this was a shock to me, I felt as if the man I was with for the last five years was not there anymore.
This was a complete 180 from what he was before, and I do believe is a mix of “slipping off the mask” after the engagement and the fact that he changed jobs to a male dominated corporation and those new friends did give me a weird vibe regarding their stance on women and equality.
Regardless of what prompted this change, I ended it. Returned the ring, packed a bag with my essentials I had at his place and left while he threw a tantrum.
He was super uncooperative in returning some of my remaining stuff, he sent things in trash bags full of glitter and won’t let me enter his apartment anymore. He also sent me all of the star wars movies with Adam Driver in them broken and destroyed, lol.
This made all of the pain I felt almost immediately disappear, which feels weird because I did love him and it was a long relationship, yet I grieved for like a week only. I did count my losses and just accepted some things I won’t get back, blocked him and haven’t heard or seen him since. Thank God it’s a big city.
My immediate circle of friends was cut off, as they valued more going to a wedding than my well-being. I’m LC with my mom, and am being supported by my dad and siblings.
I’ve continued therapy, did a Friendsgiving celebration and I’m bracing myself for the holidays with my family. I’m mostly okay, relearning to be on my own, to validate my feelings and currently debating whether to send a thank you card to Adam Driver. Thanks everyone for reading, happy holidays!
Here were the top comments on the triumphant update.
Icy_Fox_907
I remember the original post and I am SO HAPPY to see you stood up for yourself!! It really sucks having to break off an engagement but it’s so much better to go forward alone than stick around after that kind of disrespect.
In the end you’re never really going to know why he started being so disrespectful so don’t waste time on trying to figure it out. Put your time into making more progress in your own life.
Oh and btw, Etsy has coffee mugs that say “step on my neck Adam Driver you rudely large man” for a good price.
Corfiz74
Oooh, so the little woman was getting uppity when she was figuring out her own worth, and had to be brought back to heel! 🙄 So glad you kicked him to the curb, I bet your therapist did a secret little happy dance. I hope you'll continue therapy, and will end up in a relationship that's based on mutual admiration and validation and no red-pill bs!
FartMasterChamp
So happy for you! I'm so glad you cut those toxic people off too. You have a good head on your shoulders and you're gonna be amazing without this ah dragging you down. Congratulations on your freedom and happy holidays!
BigPharmaWorker
Wow, what a piece of work your ex was, but I’m glad he’s an ex and not your current fiancée any longer. There are approximately 8 billion people in the world and he has the audacity to say you wouldn’t be able to pull in anyone else?
What an insecure little man! Lucky for you his facade slipped and he showed his true colors before you actually married him. Bravo 👏 | https://www.someecards.com/lifestyle/relationships/woman-dream-about-adam-driver-break-up-reddit-update/ | 2024-01-01T03:39:59Z |
EAEU becomes a force to reckon with - Toqayev
In his remarks at the Government's hour, Speaker Toqayev noted that 2019 would be momentous for the Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU) as the economic bloc marks 5 years since the signing of the Treaty on the EAEU. Also, it has been 25 years since Kazakh leader Nursultan Nazarbayev put forward the idea of Eurasian integration.
"Today it can safely be said that the EAEU has gained a footing as the integration association, gaining momentum in its development," Toqayev said, adding that the solid foundation for formation of a single market of goods, services and capital had been created in the union.
The Kazakh Senate Speaker added that the EAEU is becoming a force to reckon with and an important player in the system of global economic ties.
"Many countries are keen to cooperate with the EAEU which boasts total population of over 180 million and gross domestic product (GDP) of over $2 trillion," Toqayev pointed out.
He went on by adding that the Free Trade Zone with Vietnam had already been established and that the EAEU had been working on analogous zones with other countries. High hopes are pinned on the EAEU transport and transit potential.
It was also stressed that integration of the EAEU with China's One Belt, One Road initiative would help propel trade and economic ties in Eurasia to the next level. | https://en.inform.kz/news/eaeu-becomes-a-force-to-reckon-with-toqayev_a3496308/ | 2024-01-01T03:40:00Z |
SEOUL, South Korea -- North Korean leader Kim Jong Un told his top military officers to use maximum force against South Korea and the United States if they initiate a military confrontation, state media reported Monday.
Seoul and Washington have ramped up defense cooperation in the face of a record-breaking series of weapons tests by Pyongyang over the past year.
At a meeting with North Korea's major commanding officers in Pyongyang on New Year's Eve, Kim said his military should "annihilate" the enemy if provoked, the official Korean Central News Agency (KCNA) reported.
"If the enemy opt for military confrontation and provocation against the DPRK, our army should deal a deadly blow to thoroughly annihilate them by mobilizing all the toughest means and potentialities without moment's hesitation," Kim said.
Kim's comments echo his threats made during year-end party meetings of a nuclear attack on Seoul and orders for a military arsenal build-up to prepare for a war that he said could "break out any time" on the peninsula.
During the meetings to set the policy agenda for 2024, the North Korean leader accused the United States of posing "various forms of military threat".
He also called on armed forces to "suppress the whole territory of south Korea mobilizing all physical means... including nuclear forces" in case of a "great event", referring to an armed conflict.
Kim told the meeting he would no longer seek reconciliation and reunification with South Korea, noting the "uncontrollable crisis" that he said was triggered by Seoul and Washington.
South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol vowed Monday to keep Pyongyang's military provocations at bay with a joint extended deterrence system with Washington, scheduled for the first half of 2024.
The deterrence system will "fundamentally deter any North Korean nuclear and missile threat", Yoon said in his New Year's Day address.
In 2023, Pyongyang successfully launched a reconnaissance satellite, enshrined its status as a nuclear power in its constitution and test-fired the most advanced intercontinental ballistic missile in its arsenal.
Pyongyang declared itself an "irreversible" nuclear power in 2022 and has repeatedly said it will never give up its nuclear weapons program, which the regime views as essential for its survival.
The United Nations Security Council has adopted many resolutions calling on North Korea to halt its nuclear and ballistic missile programs since Pyongyang first conducted a nuclear test in 2006.

RICHMOND, Va. — Neighbors hosted their annual pizza party for Richmond police officers at city’s First Precinct on New Year’s Eve.
The goal was to make sure those who protect and serve feel appreciated, especially during the season of giving.
“When family members walk out of their home and say goodbye to their wife, husband, children or partner, there's no guarantee they're going home at the end of the shift,” Ann Wortham, one of the organizers of the event said.
Nancy Lampert, who also organized the event, said that working the holidays is a sacrifice.
“It is hard when you're working a holiday if you don’t have your families around and just having someone to say, ‘Hey, we appreciate it,’” Lampert said.
The food and treats for the event, which is in its 11th year, were provided by members of the community.

SALT LAKE CITY — “Dance for Life” is a nonprofit that focuses on suicide prevention and mental health.
It held its annual New Year Hope Gala Masquerade Ball for Mental Health this weekend.
The event featured dance stars from “So you think you can dance,” the San Francisco Ballet, and special guest speakers including Miss Utah 2023.
Thayne Jasperson, a member of the original cast of “Hamilton” attended the event.
He shared a personal story to stress how successful dance can be for anyone struggling with mental health challenges.
“Dancing, singing, the arts are truly, hugely beneficial for mental health,” Jasperson said. “I remember a time when I was going through a really dark phase of my life – ‘cause I’m generally like a happy guy – but I was going through this really dark phase where I was like life had taken a twist, I’d had a breakup, but I was changing and I was moving to L.A. and I didn’t know what I was doing, I didn’t have a job and I was scared, and I remember I would go to dance classes and just dance it out.”
If you or someone you know is struggling with depression there are a lot of programs out there to help.
A 24/7 hotline is available and all you need to do is dial 9-8-8. | https://www.fox13now.com/news/local-news/dance-for-life-new-years-gala-focuses-on-mental-health | 2024-01-01T03:40:17Z |

The party started at 6 p.m. with local vendors lining the streets in a family friendly street festival. They also had activities and games for all ages including an inflatable slide and train ride.
Throughout the night, live music filled the streets and The Baha Men who sing the classic “Who Let the Dogs Out” headlined the performances.
The city hosted two ball drops, one at 8 p.m. for those who couldn’t make it to midnight in addition to the traditional ball drop. A firework show will also light up the sky when the clock strikes midnight. | https://www.fox4now.com/cape-coral/new-year-means-new-celebrations-the-city-of-cape-coral-starts-new-years-eve-tradition | 2024-01-01T03:40:17Z |
HOUSTON, Texas (KTRK) -- It's New Year's Eve and police are asking you to not shoot off your guns as a form of celebration.
"What goes up must come down, and we want to prevent these deaths," Harris County District Attorney Kim Ogg said.
City, county, state and federal leaders are cracking down on what some call celebratory gunfire.
Chief Finner says there is nothing celebratory about these actions, which are dangerous and potentially deadly.
"It's a criminal act if you discharge a firearm in our city, and I don't care if it's a holiday or any other day," Houston Police Department Chief Troy Finner said.
They're asking people to adhere to the warning because you could face criminal charges if you're caught doing this.
"You don't want to do something that's going to hurt yourself, hurt your family members, or hurt someone else," Mayor Sylvester Turner said.
Turner says they want everyone to be safe while welcoming the new year.
You're asked to call the police if you see or hear someone doing this.
Finner said to call 911 if you actively see someone firing a gun, but to call the non-emergency line at 713-884-3131 if you only hear instances of celebratory gunfire.

‘GOT’ star Emilia Clarke gets MBE for raising awareness
Actress Emilia Clarke has said the MBEs awarded to both her and her mother in the New Year Honours are "amazing" for raising awareness about brain injuries.
The Game of Thrones star suffered two brain haemorrhages in her 20s, then set up a charity in 2019 with mum Jenny. They have now been appointed MBEs for services to people with brain injuries, according to a BBC report.
"I can say for both of us that the MBE is for the cause and the charity, and for that it's wicked. For that, it's amazing," Emilia told BBC News.
"And who doesn't want to go to the palace? I've asked if I can take my dog, but apparently, you can't," she added.
The pair are believed to be the first mother and daughter to receive the same award in the same honours list.
Emilia, 37, said it was "a miracle" that she was here to talk about the haemorrhages she suffered in 2011 and 2013. The first happened when she was at the gym just after she had finished filming season one of Game of Thrones, and left her fighting for her life. However, she said she discovered there was inadequate support and rehabilitation after leaving the hospital.
"In hospital, every day you're told you're going to die. Every day, you're watched like a hawk, especially in a brain ward. You're woken up every two hours. It's this high-stakes scenario. And then three weeks to a month later, you're let out."
She was so afraid of being discharged that she "found a reason" to go back to hospital the next day, she said. "I was fine, but I was so terrified to suddenly be at home, and I was at home with a loving family. That's not [the same for] everyone and the fear that you're left with…I had this incredible nurse, but I was one of 400 patients that she had. She couldn't give me more than half an hour every three weeks. This is a day-to-day experience of living after a brain injury."
"Then, when I had my second brain haemorrhage, I was like, I've got to do something big. Looking at the fact that I've survived two of these with no repercussions– I'm here for a reason; let me do something about it. That was when we started circling around the idea of creating a charity."
'People feel ashamed'
The pair set up SameYou, with Jenny– who has also previously had brain surgery to remove an aneurysm– as chief executive.
"We realised that very few people had access to long enough rehabilitation or early enough rehabilitation," Jenny said.
"You are expected to get better after a certain period, and that, sadly, is not the reality for the majority of people. Even if you have a very mild brain injury, it's a really major trauma."
Support for brain conditions is a long way behind that for some diseases, and "brain injury and recovery need to be taken much more seriously" - including by the government, she said.
SameYou has funded projects like a trial of pioneering online neurorehabilitation called NROL, in Lancashire, as well as work with University College London and the Royal College of Nursing Foundation.
Emilia, who is also known for films including "Terminator Genisys", "Me Before You" and "Solo: A Star Wars Story", said she was proud of raising awareness after initially keeping her experiences out of the public eye.
"I kept my story a secret. I didn't want to tell anyone. I didn't want it to be a celebrity sob story. The single most important thing that we've done is at least build the first brick of a foundation of a platform to talk about this, because it's a shameful thing - people feel ashamed when they've got it. You can't comprehend it... and you can't explain to someone what the intricacies of it are."
"The second thing we're most proud of is NROL, which is the online rehabilitation that we began in Covid. Now we're trying to get the funds to roll out for it to be more accessible, because the feedback and the results have been phenomenal."
Emilia said she has "no major repercussions" from her haemorrhages, but does feel some effects, including fatigue. "I work through it, and it's fine. It's unquantifiable and undiagnosable, but the fatigue is a real thing, And I'm inclined to say that anxiety is more prevalent within me since the brain haemorrhage, but what else happened when I got a brain haemorrhage was I started Game of Thrones, so anxiety was going to happen any which way."
"There are times when someone will say: 'Do you remember that party you went to you when you were 19?', and I'll go, 'I have no recollection of that whatsoever'. Maybe that's a bit that's gone in my brain. I have those conversations in my head daily. But in the grand scheme of things, what I went through and the fact that I'm here talking to you is nothing short of a miracle. That can happen, but it's not the norm for people with brain injury, so I feel it's my duty to be able to use my vaguely working brain to talk about it."
The actress also paid tribute to her mother in light of the news about their MBEs. | https://www.thedailystar.net/entertainment/tv-film/news/got-star-emilia-clarke-gets-mbe-raising-awareness-3507161 | 2024-01-01T03:40:18Z |

Earthquake hits Kazakhstan-Uzbekistan border
ASTANA. KAZINFORM - An earthquake occurred on the border of Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan, 688 km west of Almaty, Kazinform has learned from the Science Committee of the Kazakh Ministry of Education and Science.
"The earthquake was recorded on February 25 at 8:33 a.m. Almaty time. Earthquake energy class: 9.1. Magnitude: 4.0," a duty operator in Almaty informed. | https://en.inform.kz/news/earthquake-hits-kazakhstan-uzbekistan-border_a3501615/ | 2024-01-01T03:40:21Z |
COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. — A Colorado mother suspected of killing two of her young children and injuring a third was arrested Saturday in the United Kingdom, according to the Colorado Springs Police Department.
Kimberlee Singler's 9-year-old daughter and 7-year-old son were found dead on Dec. 19 when police responded to a report of a burglary at their home. Police later said the report turned out to be unfounded.
Singler, 35, initially cooperated with police but disappeared during the investigation, said Ira Cronin, spokesperson for the Colorado Springs Police Department. Authorities were unable to apprehend her after obtaining an arrest warrant Tuesday on charges of murder and attempted murder, among other allegations.
Singler was not under surveillance and was last seen in Colorado Springs on Dec. 23, said Cronin.
Authorities did not provide further details on the overseas arrest, but said they are working with multiple law enforcement agencies.
Attempts to reach Singler for comment through phone numbers listed for her were unsuccessful. Cronin said he didn't know if she has an attorney.
When police first responded to Singler’s home, they found her with minor injuries, the two children’s bodies and Singler’s 11-year-old daughter hurt. At first, Singler was treated as a burglary victim, said Cronin.
The injured girl was hospitalized for a few days before being released and is recovering in Colorado Springs, said Cronin.
The children’s deaths came amid an ongoing legal battle between Singler and her ex-husband over parenting time and other issues, according to court filings. | https://www.fox13now.com/news/nation-world/colorado-mother-suspected-of-killing-her-2-children-and-wounding-a-third-arrested-in-united-kingdom | 2024-01-01T03:40:23Z |

Judge allows new court in Mississippi’s majority-Black capital, rejecting NAACP request to stop it
JACKSON, Miss. (AP) — A federal judge has ruled that he will allow Mississippi officials to move forward with creating a state-run court in part of the majority-Black capital city of Jackson, over objections from the NAACP.
Attorneys for the civil rights organization had sued on behalf of several Jackson residents, saying the new court undermines democracy because local voters or local elected officials won’t choose its judge or prosecutors.
The new Capitol Complex Improvement District Court will have a judge appointed by the state Supreme Court chief justice and prosecutors appointed by the state attorney general — officials who are white and conservative.
In a ruling filed late Sunday, U.S. District Judge Henry Wingate dismissed requests to block the new court, which was created by the majority-white and Republican-controlled Mississippi Legislature. Jackson is governed by Democrats.
“None of the Plaintiffs has alleged that he or she is in actual or imminent danger of experiencing any concrete and particularized injury resulting from the establishment of the CCID Court or the challenged appointment of a judge or prosecutors for that court,” Wingate wrote.
Under a law signed by Republican Gov. Tate Reeves during the spring, the new court will come into existence Jan. 1 and will have jurisdiction in a part of Jackson that includes state government buildings and some residential and shopping areas.
Reeves and legislators who support the new court say it is part of an effort to control crime in Jackson — a city that has had more than 100 homicides for each of the past three years, in a population of about 150,000.
The Capitol Complex Improvement District Court will have the same power as municipal courts, which handle misdemeanor cases, traffic violations and initial appearances for some criminal charges. People convicted in most municipal courts face time in a local jail. Those convicted in the new court will be held in a state prison, near people convicted of more serious felony crimes.
Most municipal judges are appointed by city officials. Jackson has a Black mayor and majority-Black city council. The judge of the new court is not required to live in Jackson.
Legal arguments in the case touched on racial discrimination, public safety and democracy.
The state law creating the new court also expands the patrol territory for Capitol Police. The state-run police department previously patrolled near state government buildings in downtown Jackson, but the new law added other parts of the city, including more affluent residential and shopping areas.
In September, the Mississippi Supreme Court struck down the part of the same law that would have required the state chief justice to appoint four circuit judges to serve alongside the four elected circuit judges in Hinds County. The county includes Jackson and is also majority-Black and governed by Democrats.
Justices wrote that longstanding Mississippi law allows the chief justice to appoint some judges for specific reasons, such as to deal with a backlog of cases. But they wrote that “we see nothing special or unique” about the four appointed Hinds County circuit judges in the 2023 law, “certainly nothing expressly tethering them to a specific judicial need or exigency.”

How Mehazabien broke new ground this year
There was a time when Lux Channel i Superstar 2009's breakout star Mehazabien Chowdhury's popularity was primarily associated with romantic comedies and family oriented dramas. However, she has since transformed into the versatile artiste we recognise today, breaking away from the 'girl next door' image with her exceptional acting skills and delivering back-to-back fresh, intriguing, and timely performances.
The year 2023 has been a great year for Mehazabien, as she was seen in numerous new, binge-worthy, twisted psychological thrillers including "Punorjonmo", "The Silence", "Sabrina", "Kajoler Dinratri" and so on. Moreover, she achieved a noteworthy milestone by winning four prestigious awards for her performances, setting a record in itself.
The artiste won the Best Female Actor award in the popular category at the Blender's Choice-The Daily Star OTT & Digital Content Awards 2022 for her stellar performance in the Chorki web-film "Redrum". She was also nominated in this category for her thriller Hoichoi series "Sabrina", directed by Ashfaque Nipun.
Mehazabien bagged another prestigious award as the Best Actress at the Meril-Prothom Alo Awards 2022 in the television drama, limited feature film, digital medium, TV series, and web-series category for "Punorjonmo 3".
The actress also won the Babisas Award (Bangladesh Binodon Shangbadik Somiti), and the Channel i Digital Media Award this year for the immensely popular psychological thriller "Punorjonmo 3".
Regarding her winning streak, Mehazabien said, "Of course, this kind of appreciation and recognition makes everything that I do worthwhile. It is making me more accountable and motivated to perform better in good content."
Although Mehazabien only acted in a few tele-fictions, and web-series this year, almost all were well received by the audiences and critics alike. Emphasizing the importance of working on fewer but better projects, the artiste said, "For me, it's not about the quantity but the quality of content. I focused on delivering high-quality work this year and received a lot of love from my audiences, and that's what truly matters to me, nothing else."
Mehazabien began 2023 with "Kajoler Dinratri" and ended with her mesmerizing the audience with her performance in Vicky Zahed's "Punorjonmo 3" and Mostafa Kamal Raz's "Anannya".
Apart from these three tele-fictions, Mehazabien also worked in Vicky Zahed's twisted tale of gluttony, "The Silence", which established her as one of the most versatile actors of recent times once again.
"I have always wanted to act in stories that are different and timely. The storyline of 'The Silence' wooed me. The scope of acting in this psychological thriller was wide and it turned out to be an overall good production," the actor said regarding the web-series.
"I also acted in Vicky's 'Ami Ki Tumi' and as inventive as he is, the series was intriguing to work on as well. I love collaborating with him," added the actor.
Mehazabien's last work of the year, Director Mostafa Kamal Raz's fiction "Ananya" has been garnering widespread appreciation since its release on Cinemawala's YouTube channel.
The plot centered around the sacrifice of a mother, evoked emotions and relatability amongst the audience. Netizens have positively commented on the heartwarming storyline, praising Mehazabien and the director.
"The character was very challenging to portray but I could really relate to it since it was about a struggling mother. I think we should tell these stories more," said Mehazabien.
The artiste has expressed aspirations to work on more new, timely, fresh content in the upcoming year. | https://www.thedailystar.net/entertainment/tv-film/news/how-mehazabien-broke-new-ground-year-3507306 | 2024-01-01T03:40:26Z |

throwawayaitawifey
Obligatory throwaway because I don’t want this tied to my main account.
Background: I’ve been with my husband for 6 years total, married for 2. We have no children and do not plan to.
My (27f) husband (32m) has a group of guys that he’s been friends with since elementary school. After college, they all moved back to the same area and several of them rented a house together until they started getting girlfriends and moving out. After they moved out, they still had guys’ night nearly every Friday until Covid happened.
They started back up a few months ago after restrictions in our area relaxed and the majority of the guys started getting tested regularly because of their jobs. There is one single guy (let’s call him “B”) left in the group and they meet at his house and hang out in the carport to drink a few beers and just shoot the breeze.
I’ve never had a problem with my husband “W” going guys’ night. He gets off work at 5 and is usually home no later than 8 every Friday. He never drives home drunk, and if he ever does have a few too many, I don’t mind going to pick him up. (I feel like I should note that we live the farthest away from B’s house, about 15 minutes.
All the other guys live within walking distance of B). Usually I bake cookies or other snacks for him to take with him to share with the guys. I also don’t mind driving other the other guys home if needed. If we have plans or anything, he doesn’t go.
Since the guys’ night has resumed, the other wives have been complaining about it. We’re friendly, but none of us are really good friends like our husbands are. We’ve tried to have a girls’ night while the guys have their night but most of them have kids and we really don’t have anything in common outside of our husbands. It was just awkward.
One of the guys “A” is married to “F” and they have a 1 year old baby. F has been particularly vocal about not wanting A to be out every Friday, as she wants help at home. The other wives backed her up and started a group chat asking that we present a “united front” to cancel guys’ night.
Here’s where I may be the asshole. I refused to side with them. It gives me time to unwind after work and it’s become part of my routine. So when the other wives told their husbands that they didn’t want guys’ night to happen anymore, I told W that I didn’t feel the same way and he should keep going. He enjoys it and he should get to see his friends regularly.
So after the confrontation, the other guys started in with “Why can’t you be cool like W’s wife?” Or “She lets him go, she even makes us cookies and picks him up” etc. A apparently made the comment, “I wish I was still single like B."
He can do whatever he wants and I miss that” All the other wives are livid, saying if we had been a united front like they planned, guys’ night would either be canceled or a less frequent occurrence (once a month). So am I the ahole?
*Edit: Some info to clear up some assumptions I’m seeing in the comments..... All the wives work. I do not know if the moms get nights to themselves like the guys do. I do not know the details of their family dynamics.
I do know all the wives have tried to have girls’ night amongst ourselves and it didn’t work because we have nothing in common. I’m pretty sure all the wives have other friends but I do not know when/how often they do things outside of the home.
I send cookies and treats because I make them for my blog, not just to make them for the guys. I did not respond to the original messages in the group chat. I found out that the wives confronted the guys, via my husband.
***Edit 2: WOW! I logged back on this morning and I was completely overwhelmed. This got way more attention than I was expecting! Thank you for the awards, I’ve never gotten Reddit awards before!
I showed this to my husband over breakfast this morning and his initial response was “so does this mean you’re Reddit famous?” lol But we agreed to read through the comments together tonight and try come up with a solution to help ease some tension in his friend group.
Thank you for all your input and apologies if I don’t respond to your messages/comments. I have a busy work day and like I said, I was completely overwhelmed by the response.
DeltaWaveWonder
NTA.
"the other guys started in with “Why can’t you be cool like W’s wife?” Or “She lets him go, she even makes us cookies and picks him up” etc. A apparently made the comment “I wish I was still single like B. He can do whatever he wants and I miss that”"
Those guys are total aholes.
No_regrats
Imagine that, at the end of a work week, these guys want a night to relax and the wives take care of the kids alone to make it happen (they work too, I guarantee they too would love taking the night off). And instead of being appreciative, these dudes whine that their wives don't bake cookies or come pick them up despite being within walking distance.
If your spouse is taking care of the kids alone so that you can have a weekly night out, you make them a meal/snacks/cookies to show your appreciation and make their evening a touch easier. And you don't ask them to take the kids out at 8 pm, get everyone in their kids' seats and everything, just so you don't have to walk home or accept a lift from a friend.
throwawayaitawifey
The complaining didn’t start until after Covid restrictions lifted. I guess they got used to having the guys home every Friday during those few months. Before, it had been a standing weekly thing for nearly 10 years.
hammocks_
I mean covid has been half the lifespan of the 1 year old's life -- wanting your husband to cut back on leisure activities to help with a literal infant is not unreasonable.
jokeyhaha
NTA. The wives are aholes. The other guys are aholes. But this is also coming after being together for 25 years. Back when we had little ones, I likely would have understood the wives' position more. Weekly might be a bit much. Why not every other week or once a month as a compromise?
throwawayaitawifey
A lot has happened in the last 3 weeks, but I’m going to try to condense it for the the character limit. After reading all the replies together, W and I decided it would be best for him to confront his friends, particularly A.
He told them it wasn’t cool to try to throw me under the bus with their wives and that their wives, especially the ones with kids, need and deserve time to themselves too.
According to the guys, all the wives are getting time to themselves without the kids each week, with A’s wife F getting the most time out of anyone. She works until 4, but doesn’t pick up their baby until 7 everyday. She has a workout class 3x/week and a standing girls’ night every Wednesday where she doesn’t come home until 10-11pm. (A picks up the baby on Wednesdays)
W and I held a brief, socially distanced get-together in our yard to clear the air. I confirmed what the guys had said about the wives getting time and the wives admitted that they do, whether is manicures, gym time, book club, etc.
That’s when I found out about F’s social schedule) they then confirmed that all the guys were attentive and involved dads. W later told me he was sure his friends weren’t complete sh*tb@gz but was glad to have the reassurance)
Then it erupted into a fight between A & F, with A saying he only gets one hour a week to himself since he gets off at 7 and is home by 8. F broke down and started screaming that it wasn’t the time spent with his friends but his comments the following days. She then turned on me, literally pointed and screamed that it was my fault.
That during the lockdown, for the “first time in over 5 years”, she didn’t have to listen to A talk about me “all fng weekend.” I was shell shocked and didn’t know what to say but W jumped in and told her she could not talk to me like that and she should probably leave before she said something she couldn’t take back.
F left and A stayed. Afterwards, the other wives admitted they only agreed the ultimatum after F relentlessly persuaded and pushed them into it. I have never seen this side of F before so I had no idea she could be like this.
A has been sleeping at B’s house for almost 2 weeks now. He’s still been picking up/spending time with the baby, but he doesn’t sleep at his house. He says they’re going to try therapy, and if that doesn’t work, they’ll probably separate.
As much as I dislike the guy, I feel bad for him. Guys’ Night has resumed. I still send cookies, but W says he doesn’t bring me up and shuts the guys down if they try to talk about me.
Master-Manipulation
Dang, sounds like that marriage was over, but it’s still not your fault. I think you sound like the convenient excuse F have to pick a fight.
LeadingJudgment2
This. F also sounds like a relentless bully. The wives were happy in their marriages and the division was fair. Instead of working on her own issues - she wound up pushing her "friends" (is she really their friend if she pulls this?)
To do something that would have built resentment in their own marriages. She also seems to be hyperbolic about things and views everything as an attack that requires a full on social attack.
WonderingWaffle
It was great that everyone got together to talk through this problem together as a group instead of he said she said. It's unfortunately what A and F is going through but luckily the cause has been found so that it's not directed at you anymore. Your husband standing up for you is great and I'm glad the other wives came around as well.
Mivirian
I wish we had more clarification on what the deal was with Alex constantly bringing OP up to Fran. If they are cordial but not friendly, then why is he bringing her up at all? What does he say about her? It's very weird.
Lilitu9Tails
It could just be that OP is so relaxed about boy’s night and is constantly used as an example - doesn’t need to be that he’s interested, but if Alex is constantly “well OP doesn’t care, why do you”, I can see how it would breed resentment.
But Fran should still be directing that at Alex and actually communicating with him about it, not seething in silence for years then blowing up at OP, because that’s not healthy. | https://www.someecards.com/lifestyle/relationships/womans-lone-support-for-husbands-guys-night-triggers-fight-with-other-wives/ | 2024-01-01T03:40:29Z |

Colorado mom wanted for killing 2 of her children arrested in United Kingdom
COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (KKTV/Gray News) - A mother wanted in connection with the deaths of two of her children has been arrested in the United Kingdom, according to police.
Colorado Springs Police say Kimberlee Singler was taken into custody without incident.
On December 19, just after midnight, police responded to a call about a burglary in the 5300 block of Palomino Ranch Point.
When police arrived, they found two children, a 9-year-old girl and a 7-year-old boy, dead inside the residence.
Singler and an 11-year-old girl were found with injuries and taken to a local hospital. All three children are Singler’s children.
As the investigation continued, a warrant for Singler’s arrest was issued on December 26. The arrest warrant included charges of murder in the first degree, child abuse, and assault.
A $10,000,000 bond was set by the court.

Branden Carlson nets 34 as Utah runs past Washington
Branden Carlson tallied 34 points, seven rebounds and seven assists to rally Utah to a 95-90 victory over Washington in Salt Lake City on Sunday.
Rollie Worster finished with 14 points, six rebounds and five assists. Gabe Madsen added 11 points and 11 rebounds for the Utes.
Utah (11-2, 2-0 Pac-12) shot 68.8 percent from the field in the second half and made 11 3-pointers for the game to beat Washington for just the second time in the past five meetings. The Utes are off to their best start since the 2015-16 season.
Keion Brooks Jr. led the Huskies with 25 points and seven rebounds. Koren Johnson added 17 points and Wilhelm Breidenbach chipped in 15.
Washington (8-5, 0-2) forced 12 turnovers in the game but unraveled defensively in the second half. The Huskies gave up 60 points after halftime.
Utah trailed by 15 points late in the first half before rallying to erase the deficit after the break. The Utes made 7 of 8 field-goal attempts over a four-plus-minute stretch and finally took a 67-66 lead on back-to-back baskets from Madsen and Keba Keita.
Carlson reeled off 21 straight Utah points over a stretch of 6:35 to keep Washington from countering the rally while extending the Utes' lead to 89-81 with 1:55 left on back-to-back baskets. He made eight buckets from the floor, including three 3-pointers, during his outburst.
Washington dug an early hole for itself after the Huskies missed 14 of their first 16 shots from the field. Offensive futility opened a door for Utah to rip off a 10-2 run and carve out an 18-7 lead. Carlson and Cole Bajema punctuated the run, with Carlson converting a three-point play and Bajema adding a layup.
The Huskies then put together a massive 23-2 run that erased the deficit and gave them a 32-22 lead.
Carlson scored the lone points for the Utes during the Washington surge.
The Huskies led by as many as 15 before halftime, going up 44-29 on Johnson's layup. Washington committed zero turnovers during the first half.

NFL reportedly downgrades Brad Allen’s ref crew for the playoffs after controversial call against Detroit on a two-point attempt
LANSING, Mich. (WILX) - The Detroit Lions continue to be frustrated by the controversial call of illegal touching on the two-point try in the 20-19 loss Saturday night. Brad Allen and his crew of officials have had multiple game-changing calls that have been debatable. According to an ESPN report, Allen’s crew is going to be downgraded out of the postseason.
A little bit before the call against the Lions, the Cowboys’ Peyton Hendershot was called for tripping on Aidan Hutchinson. The correct call should’ve been on Hutchinson instead; that would’ve given Dallas the chance to seal the game.
After the Amon-Ra St. Brown touchdown to make it 20-19, the Lions decided to go for two to try and take the lead. Goff ended up finding offensive tackle Taylor Decker, who has an ineligible number of 68 in the end zone, for what appeared to be the go-ahead conversion. If a player has an ineligible number to catch a pass, then they must report to the official before the play to tell the defense. Brad Allen reported tackle Dan Skipper, who is number 70, as eligible instead of 68. This resulted in the penalty of illegal touching. The Lions would not convert ultimately and fall 20-19.
Here is @WXYZDetroit ground level video of the Taylor Decker two-point conversion.

DALLAS, Texas — Trailblazing longtime U.S. Rep. Eddie Bernice Johnson, a nurse from Texas who helped bring hundreds of millions of federal dollars to the Dallas area as the region's most powerful Democrat, died Sunday. She was 88.
President Joe Biden, Dallas Mayor Eric Johnson and many other leaders issued statements about her death after her son posted about it on Facebook. The Dallas Morning News also confirmed her death with an unnamed source close to the family. No cause of death was given.
Biden hailed her "immense courage" and called her "an icon and mentor to generations of public servants, through whom her legacy of resilience and purpose will endure."
"She was the single most effective legislator Dallas has ever had," the mayor said in a statement. "Nobody brought more federal infrastructure money home to our city. Nobody fought harder for our communities and our residents' interests and safety. And nobody knew how to navigate Washington better for the people of Dallas."
Eddie Bernice Johnson served in the House for three decades after becoming the first registered nurse elected to Congress and first Black chief psychiatric nurse at Dallas' Veterans Affairs hospital. She went on to become the first Black woman to chair the House Committee on Science, Space, and Technology, and she also led the Congressional Black Caucus. She left office in January after repeatedly delaying her retirement. Before Congress, she served in the Texas legislature.
"For three decades, Chairwoman Johnson was a powerful force in the United States Congress, always focused on the future," House Speaker Emerita Nancy Pelosi said in a statement, praising Johnson as "a tenacious trailblazer, a talented legislator and a devoted public servant."
Johnson used her committee leadership position to fight against Republican efforts to block action on climate change. Congressional Black Caucus Chair Steven Horsford said Johnson was also "a fierce advocate for expanding STEM opportunities to Black and minority students" who also played a key role in helping the Biden administration pass a major package of incentives for computer chip manufacturers.
She was born in Waco and grew up in the segregated South. Dallas' once-segregated Union Station was renamed in her honor in 2019.
Her own experience with racism helped spur her to get involved in politics. She recalled that officials at the VA hospital were shocked that she was Black after they hired her sight-unseen, so they rescinded their offer for her to live in a dorm on campus. She told The Dallas Morning News in 2020 that officials would go into patients' rooms ahead of her to "say that I was qualified."
"That was really the most blatant, overt racism that I ever experienced in my life," she told the newspaper.
Johnson nearly quit but decided to stick with it.
"It was very challenging," she said. "But any job where you're an African American woman entering for the first time would be a challenge. They had not hired one before I got there. Yes, it was a challenge, but it was a successful venture."

North Korea’s Kim orders military to ‘thoroughly annihilate’ US, South Korea if provoked
SEOUL, South Korea (AP) — North Korean leader Kim Jong Un ordered his military to “thoroughly annihilate” the United States and South Korea if provoked, state media reported Monday, after he vowed to boost national defense to cope with what he called an unprecedented U.S.-led confrontation.
Kim is expected to ramp up weapons tests in 2024 ahead of the U.S. presidential election in November. Many experts say he likely believes his expanded nuclear arsenal would allow him to wrest U.S. concessions if former President Donald Trump is reelected.
In a five-day major ruling party meeting last week, Kim said he will launch three more military spy satellites, produce more nuclear materials and develop attack drones this year in what observers say is an attempt to increase his leverage in future diplomacy with the U.S.
In a meeting on Sunday with commanding army officers, Kim said it is urgent to sharpen “the treasured sword” to safeguard national security, an apparent reference to his country’s nuclear weapons program. He cited “the U.S. and other hostile forces’ military confrontation moves,” according to the official Korean Central News Agency.
Kim stressed that “our army should deal a deadly blow to thoroughly annihilate them by mobilizing all the toughest means and potentialities without moment’s hesitation” if they opt for military confrontation and provocations against North Korea, KCNA said.
In his New Year’s Day address Monday, South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol said he will strengthen his military’s preemptive strike, missile defense and retaliatory capabilities in response to the North Korean nuclear threat.
“The Republic of Korea is building genuine, lasting peace through strength, not a submissive peace that is dependent on the goodwill of the adversary,” Yoon said, using South Korea’s official name.
At the party meeting, Kim called South Korea “a hemiplegic malformation and colonial subordinate state” whose society is “tainted by Yankee culture.” He said his military must use all available means including nuclear weapons to “suppress the whole territory of South Korea” in the event of a conflict.
South Korea’s Defense Ministry warned in response that if North Korea attempts to use nuclear weapons, South Korean and U.S. forces will punish it overwhelmingly, resulting in the end of the Kim government.
Experts say small-scale military clashes between North and South Korea could happen this year along their heavily armed border. They say North Korea is also expected to test-launch intercontinental ballistic missiles capable of reaching the mainland U.S. and other major new weapons.
In 2018-19, Kim met Trump in three rounds of talks on North Korea’s expanding nuclear arsenal. The diplomacy fell apart after the U.S. rejected Kim’s limited offer to dismantle his main nuclear complex in exchange for extensive reductions in U.S.-led sanctions.
Kim has since sought to modernize his weapons arsenal and strengthen North Korea’s relationships with China and Russia. KCNA said Kim and Chinese President Xi Jinping exchanged New Year’s Day messages on Monday on bolstering bilateral ties.
North Korea faces suspicions that it has supplied conventional arms for Russia’s war in Ukraine in return for sophisticated Russian technologies to enhance the North’s military programs.
Estimates of the size of North Korea’s nuclear arsenal vary, ranging from about 20-30 bombs to more than 100. Many foreign experts say North Korea still has some technological hurdles to overcome to produce functioning nuclear-armed ICBMs, though its shorter-range nuclear-capable missiles can reach South Korea and Japan.

I thought my role wouldn’t even be noticed: Triptii Dimri
The sizzling chemistry between Triptii Dimri and Ranbir Kapoor in the blockbuster hit "Animal" has not only set the screens on fire but has also ignited a sudden surge in Triptii's Instagram followers. In an exclusive interview with News18, the talented actor delved into the experience of shooting an intimate scene with Ranbir and shared her unexpected journey after the film's release.
Triptii Dimri's portrayal of Zoya Riaz in "Animal" has become the talk of the town, receiving immense praise and attention. However, the actor admitted that she hadn't anticipated such a response for her character.
"I was very nervous on the first day. I knew the film would do well, but I wasn't expecting this kind of response from the audience for the character Zoya. I thought, 'It's a small role, and it will come and go.' But I wasn't expecting to receive so much love or even be noticed. I haven't been able to sleep," confessed Triptii.
Despite the explicit nature of the intimate scene, Triptii Dimri revealed that she approached it like any other scene in the film. She emphasised that the comfort level between the co-actors and the director played a crucial role. "That scene was taken as lightly as any other scene in the film. They weren't making a big deal out of it. We did it exactly the way we did other scenes. My comfort was taken care of. It was a part of the story... As long as you're comfortable with your co-actors and directors, it shouldn't matter," she explained.
Addressing the absence of an intimacy coordinator on set, Triptii acknowledged that while some people may need them, it depends on the individuals involved. "But some people need them (intimacy coordinator). It depends from person to person," she added.
Triptii, who had earlier expressed in an interview with News18 that she wasn't seeking stardom and had signed "Animal" for the intriguing character, reiterated her surprise at the unexpected success of the film. "I just wanted to do 'Animal' because the character was interesting. Achieving this kind of success wasn't a plan. It just happened, and I feel very lucky and grateful. I'm not seeking stardom," she stated.
Apart from Triptii Dimri and Ranbir Kapoor, "Animal", directed by Sandeep Reddy Vanga, boasts a stellar cast, including Rashmika Mandanna, Bobby Deol, and Anil Kapoor in pivotal roles.
The film, released in five languages on December 1, has been performing exceptionally well at the box office, with Bobby Deol portraying the antagonist in the gripping narrative. | https://www.thedailystar.net/entertainment/tv-film/news/i-thought-my-role-wouldnt-even-be-noticed-triptii-dimri-3507191 | 2024-01-01T03:40:42Z |

PARIS - President Emmanuel Macron vowed on Sunday (Dec 31) that 2024 will be the year of French pride and hope, marked by the Paris 2024 Olympic Summer Games and the re-opening of Notre-Dame cathedral after a devastating fire.
"Only once in a century does one host Olympic and Paralympic Games, only once in a millennium does one rebuild a cathedral," Macron said. "2024, a year of determination, choices, recovery, pride. In fact, a year of hope."
He spoke in a televised address ahead of New Year celebrations during which around 90,000 police and 5,000 soldiers will be deployed to ensure security and address what the government called a "very high" terrorist threat.
France will continue to "re-arm" itself when it comes to security matters, but also boost public education and social cohesion, Macron said.
He sought to cheer up the French after a year marked by wars and crises abroad as well as protests over an unpopular pension reform and street violence following the police killing of a teenager at a Paris traffic stop.

EU cuts Eurozone growth forecasts as perfect storm darkens horizon
ASTANA. KAZINFORM - Eurozone economic growth will slow significantly this year, the European Union said Thursday, as the currency union faces a perfect storm of weakening global trade and rising domestic risks led by a chaotic Brexit, according to a Dow Jones Newswires report supplied to Efe.
Gross domestic product in the 19-member eurozone will grow by 1.3 percent in 2019, the EU said in its quarterly report, cutting its 1.9 percent forecast from Nov. The expansion rate is seen declining to 1.6 percent next year, down from 1.7 percent previously expected. | https://en.inform.kz/news/eu-cuts-eurozone-growth-forecasts-as-perfect-storm-darkens-horizon_a3496072/ | 2024-01-01T03:40:48Z |

Javed Akhtar becomes highest-paid lyricist with ‘Dunki’ song
In a groundbreaking move within the Indian film industry, veteran lyricist Javed Akhtar has secured his place as the highest-paid lyricist with the haunting track "Nikle The Kabhi Hum Ghar Se" from Shah Rukh Khan and Rajkumar Hirani's latest film, "Dunki".
Reports reveal that Akhtar charged a remarkable Rs 25 lakhs for his lyrical contribution, setting a new benchmark in the world of Bollywood music.
Film analyst and critic Komal Nahta recently unveiled this unprecedented feat in his magazine, Film Information. He emphasised, "Rs 25 lakhs for one song must be a record fee charged by any lyricist to date." This revelation was later confirmed by Javed Akhtar himself during a stage show titled Main Koi Aisa Geet Gaaon.
Akhtar shared insights into the unique circumstances that led to his involvement in "Dunki". While he typically writes multiple songs for a film, director Rajkumar Hirani insisted that he pen the lyrics for a single track, asserting, "Yeh gaana aapke alawa koi nahin likh sakta" (No one else can write this song but you). Despite presenting what he described as "unreasonable terms" in the hope of discouraging the director, Akhtar disclosed that Hirani readily accepted the conditions, demonstrating an unwavering commitment to the film.
The lyricist expressed his admiration for Hirani, stating, "Yeh mera kamaal nahin hai. Yeh kamaal Raju Hirani ka hai" (This is not my achievement; it's Raju Hirani's). He credited Hirani's successful track record and genuine love for the film as the driving forces behind their collaboration, emphasising that ego did not influence the decision-making process.
The film "Dunki", which revolves around the dreams of Hardy (Shah Rukh Khan) and his friends in the village of Laltu, Punjab, was released on December 21 after an extensive promotional campaign. Despite facing obstacles in their pursuit of better opportunities in London, the characters embark on a unique journey, attempting to enter England illegally through the donkey flight route. The movie explores a range of emotions over its 2 hours and 41 minutes runtime.
Javed Akhtar's record-breaking fee not only highlights his unparalleled contribution to the world of Bollywood music but also underscores the value placed on artistic excellence within the industry. | https://www.thedailystar.net/entertainment/tv-film/news/javed-akhtar-becomes-highest-paid-lyricist-dunki-song-3507291 | 2024-01-01T03:40:49Z |

Chiefs win 8th consecutive AFC West title with 25-17 win over Bengals
KANSAS CITY, Mo. (KCTV) - It wasn’t pretty. It certainly wasn’t easy. But a win is a win, and the Chiefs haven’t come by those often over the last six weeks.
Led by Harrison Butker’s right leg, a rushing attack from Isiah Pacheco and a career-best by rookie wide receiver Rashee Rice, the Kansas City Chiefs pulled away from Cincinnati in the fourth quarter to notch a 25-17 win Sunday evening at GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium.
With the win, the Chiefs clinched their eighth consecutive AFC West championship, the most dominant stretch of football in the division’s history.
Harrison Butker was perfect for the game, going 6-6 on field goals.
Pacheco rushed for 130 yards on 18 carries. Rice caught five receptions for 130 yards, including a 67-yard reception.
After surrendering a field goal on Cincinnati’s opening drive, the Chiefs marched down the field and capped off a 75-yard drive with an 8-yard touchdown catch from Patrick Mahomes to Pacheco.
The Bengals took the lead with a Joe Mixon touchdown reception and then took advantage of a Mahomes fumble to extend their lead to 17-7 after quarterback Jake Browning’s 1-yard TD plunge.
Enter Harrison Butker. The 7-year veteran placekicker booted six field goals over the next 30 minutes of gameplay with distances of 54, 43,27,24,48 and 46 yards.
After facing a 17-13 halftime deficit, the Chiefs defense did not allow a single point.
Kansas City finishes its regular season on Jan. 7 at the Los Angeles Chargers.

New Delhi, Dec 31: Tackling challenges like ethnic violence in Manipur and sporadic terror attacks in Jammu and Kashmir while taking landmark steps in overhauling the British-era criminal justice laws and signing peace pacts with insurgent outfits in the Northeast, the year 2023 was a mixed bag for the Ministry of Home Affairs.
A long-delayed peace agreement with the pro-talks faction of the United Liberation Front of Asom (ULFA) at the fag-end of the year has given a firm indication that the Home Minister Amit Shah-led ministry is serious about resolving the problems that have affected the Northeast for decades and claimed many lives.
A major crisis came to the fore on May 3 when ethnic violence erupted in Manipur after a ‘Tribal Solidarity March' was organised in the hill districts of the Northeastern state to protest against the majority Meitei community's demand for Scheduled Tribe status.
At least 180 people were killed in violence that continued for months. Shah visited the state for four consecutive days to calm down the warring communities – Meitei and Kuki.
A series of confidence-building measures were taken including the constitution of a judicial inquiry committee, financial aid to the victims and sending additional troops.
Even though fragile peace returned to Manipur after several months, the mistrust between the two communities poses a serious hurdle.
“Normalcy has returned to a great extent in Manipur and the law and order situation is by and large peaceful. Even though the trust deficit between the Meitei and the Kuki communities remains, the government is trying its best to bring them closer,” a senior home ministry official said.
Meiteis account for about 53 per cent of Manipur's population and live mostly in the Imphal Valley, while tribals, which include Nagas and Kukis, constitute 40 per cent and reside mainly in the hill districts.
The government, on November 13, also extended by five years the ban imposed on nine Meitei extremist groups and their associate organisations, which mostly operate in Manipur, for their anti-national activities and launching fatal attacks on security forces.
On November 29, a peace pact was signed by the government with the Imphal valley-based oldest terror outfit United National Liberation Front (UNLF), dominated by the majority Meitei community, under which the insurgent faction has agreed to renounce violence.
The Modi government has signed a series of agreements with Northeast-based insurgent groups in the last five years.
These include one with the Tripura-based insurgent group NLFT in 2019, with the groups belonging to the Bru and Bodo communities in 2020, with a group of the Karbi tribals of Assam in 2021 and with an Adivasi group in 2022.
The Assam-Meghalaya border agreement, Assam-Arunachal border agreement and agreement with the Manipur-based insurgent group UNLF were signed in 2023.
On August 11, Home Minister Amit Shah introduced in Parliament – Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita and the Bharatiya Sakshya Bill – aiming to completely overhaul the century-old Indian Penal Code, 1860 (IPC), Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973 (CrPC) and the Indian Evidence Act of 1872.
The bills were subsequently referred to the Department-related Parliamentary Standing Committee on Home Affairs on August 18 for a thorough review.
All the legislations were withdrawn during the just concluded winter session of parliament after the standing committee suggested a number of changes. The home minister reintroduced the bills on December 12. They were passed by both houses of Parliament on December 21 and got the presidential assent on December 25.
The new laws have given a clear definition of terrorism, abolished sedition as a crime and introduced a new section titled “Offences against the State”.
The Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita lists offences such as acts of secession, armed rebellion, subversive activities, separatist activities or endangering the sovereignty or unity in the new avatar of the sedition law.
Under IPC Section 124A, which deals with sedition, a convict may be punished with life imprisonment or a three-year jail term.
Under the new laws, ‘Rajdroh' has got a new term ‘Deshdroh', thus doing away with the reference to the British crown.
The magistrate's power to impose fines has been increased as well as the scope of declaring a proclaimed offender.
Shah had said the three new laws were drafted after comprehensive consultations and that he had gone through “every comma and full stop” of the draft legislation before bringing them to the House for approval.
Sporadic violence continued in Jammu and Kashmir since the beginning of 2023.
On December 21, five soldiers were killed and two injured when heavily armed terrorists ambushed two Army vehicles in Jammu and Kashmir's Poonch district. A day later bodies of three civilians were found in the Poonch district, not far from the spot of the day before the incident, sparking outrage.
The civilians were allegedly picked up by the Army after the ambush.
This year, Rajouri, Poonch and Reasi districts in Jammu and Kashmir witnessed a series of encounters that left 54 persons, including 19 security personnel and 28 terrorists, dead so far, officials said.
They ascribed the uptick in violence to “desperate attempts from across the border” to revive terrorism in the region.
“In 2023, there were few terror attacks in the Kashmir valley. Cross-border infiltration is also low. Stone pelting is a thing of the past now.
“All these major incidents have taken place only in Rajouri, Poonch and Reasi districts of Jammu and Kashmir. Security forces are working to deal with these new challenges,” another official said.
While 31 persons, including 10 terrorists and 14 security personnel, were killed in Rajouri, 15 terrorists and five security personnel were killed in Poonch district. Three terrorists were killed in Reasi district.
Most of the terrorists were killed while attempting to sneak into this side of the border, the officials said.
In May, five Army personnel were killed and a major-rank officer was injured in Chamrer forest during an anti-terrorist operation. A foreign terrorist was also killed in the operation.
Once considered to be a key threat to internal security, Left Wing Extremism (LWE) or the Naxal problem has been brought under control to a large extent.
According to Home Ministry data, in the last 10 years, the incidents of Naxal violence have come down by 52 per cent, deaths in these incidents declined by 70 per cent and the number of affected districts has come down from 96 to 45 and LWE hit police stations from 495 to 176.
As many as 199 new security forces camps have also been established in the LWE-affected areas since 2019.
On December 1, Union Home Minister Amit Shah said that India was “on the verge of” eliminating Naxalism and the Modi government is “determined” to win this battle.
“The last strike against LWE by forces like the BSF, CRPF and ITBP is in the process. We are determined to end Naxalism in the country. I am sure we will win this battle,” he said.
Shah also said: “In the last 10 years, the Modi government has been able to win the battle in the hotspots of Jammu and Kashmir, LWE and the insurgency in the Northeast and the security forces have been able to establish their domination in Jammu and Kashmir”.
On December 29, a tripartite peace accord was signed between the pro-talks faction of the ULFA, the central and the Assam governments, aiming to bring lasting peace in the Northeastern state.
Union Home Minister Amit Shah, Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma and over a dozen top leaders of the pro-talks faction of the ULFA, headed by Arabinda Rajkhowa, were present at the signing of the peace agreement here.
The accord will take care of a host of long-standing political, economic and social issues concerning Assam, besides providing cultural safeguards and land rights to the indigenous people, officials said.
The hardline faction of the ULFA, led by Paresh Baruah, was not part of the agreement as he has been consistently rejecting the olive branch offered by the government.
Ever since the Modi government came to power in 2014, the NGOs have been under close scrutiny by the Home Ministry.
According to data disclosed in parliament early this month, Rs 55741.51 crore foreign contributions were received by the FCRA-registered 13,520 associations or NGOs in the last three financial years i.e. 2019-2020 to 2021-2022. | https://thenorthlines.com/2023-marks-handling-of-violence-in-manipur-jk-new-criminal-justice-laws-peace-pacts-in-ne/ | 2024-01-01T03:40:55Z |

North Korea’s Kim orders military to ‘thoroughly annihilate’ US, South Korea if provoked
SEOUL, South Korea (AP) — North Korean leader Kim Jong Un ordered his military to “thoroughly annihilate” the United States and South Korea if provoked, state media reported Monday, after he vowed to boost national defense to cope with what he called an unprecedented U.S.-led confrontation.
Kim is expected to ramp up weapons tests in 2024 ahead of the U.S. presidential election in November. Many experts say he likely believes his expanded nuclear arsenal would allow him to wrest U.S. concessions if former President Donald Trump is reelected.
In a five-day major ruling party meeting last week, Kim said he will launch three more military spy satellites, produce more nuclear materials and develop attack drones this year in what observers say is an attempt to increase his leverage in future diplomacy with the U.S.
In a meeting on Sunday with commanding army officers, Kim said it is urgent to sharpen “the treasured sword” to safeguard national security, an apparent reference to his country’s nuclear weapons program. He cited “the U.S. and other hostile forces’ military confrontation moves,” according to the official Korean Central News Agency.
Kim stressed that “our army should deal a deadly blow to thoroughly annihilate them by mobilizing all the toughest means and potentialities without moment’s hesitation” if they opt for military confrontation and provocations against North Korea, KCNA said.
In his New Year’s Day address Monday, South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol said he will strengthen his military’s preemptive strike, missile defense and retaliatory capabilities in response to the North Korean nuclear threat.
“The Republic of Korea is building genuine, lasting peace through strength, not a submissive peace that is dependent on the goodwill of the adversary,” Yoon said, using South Korea’s official name.
At the party meeting, Kim called South Korea “a hemiplegic malformation and colonial subordinate state” whose society is “tainted by Yankee culture.” He said his military must use all available means including nuclear weapons to “suppress the whole territory of South Korea” in the event of a conflict.
South Korea’s Defense Ministry warned in response that if North Korea attempts to use nuclear weapons, South Korean and U.S. forces will punish it overwhelmingly, resulting in the end of the Kim government.
Experts say small-scale military clashes between North and South Korea could happen this year along their heavily armed border. They say North Korea is also expected to test-launch intercontinental ballistic missiles capable of reaching the mainland U.S. and other major new weapons.
In 2018-19, Kim met Trump in three rounds of talks on North Korea’s expanding nuclear arsenal. The diplomacy fell apart after the U.S. rejected Kim’s limited offer to dismantle his main nuclear complex in exchange for extensive reductions in U.S.-led sanctions.
Kim has since sought to modernize his weapons arsenal and strengthen North Korea’s relationships with China and Russia. KCNA said Kim and Chinese President Xi Jinping exchanged New Year’s Day messages on Monday on bolstering bilateral ties.
North Korea faces suspicions that it has supplied conventional arms for Russia’s war in Ukraine in return for sophisticated Russian technologies to enhance the North’s military programs.
Estimates of the size of North Korea’s nuclear arsenal vary, ranging from about 20-30 bombs to more than 100. Many foreign experts say North Korea still has some technological hurdles to overcome to produce functioning nuclear-armed ICBMs, though its shorter-range nuclear-capable missiles can reach South Korea and Japan.

‘Let’s be a better version of ourselves’: Celebs share New Year's resolutions
It seems like 2023 went by the blink of an eye – more so for the showbiz industry, which saw its ups and downs. Like any of us, celebrities are also looking to take the time to appreciate and reflect on the past year, to make their own New Year's resolutions. We talk to six of the biggest stars in the industry about what they will do this year.
Not just humans, but let's think about animals as well: Jaya Ahsan
I hope that everything negative will somehow be erased this year. I wish well for not just humans, but innocent animals as well – let them be safe and sound from any aggression. I want to be able to continue the work that I'm doing.
Love your country: Chanchal Chowdhury
May humanity win above all negativity. May the light touch all. Personally, I am always looking for new challenges on the work front. I also want to stand beside people and help them in whichever way I can. One message to the audience: Please be with good art, and also, love your country.
I try to reinvent myself all the time: Badhan
Every day, I try to enhance focus on myself, and the new year will only bring me incentive to do so even more. The present is what matters the most to me. I wish everyone the very best for 2024.
In 2023, I worked from the heart, this year I will be more calculative: Siam Ahmed
I can't complain, I've had a very happening year as an actor, I poured all my heart out into whatever I've done. However, in 2024, I want to work for myself and be more calculative in my approach. I want to continue experimenting with more types of roles.
The audience is everything to me, I wish them well: Mehazabien Chowdhury
The new year brings more incentive to pick out more good projects to bring under my repertoire. I can't even begin to say how grateful I am to them, and how they supported me. I am looking to do more of the same this year.
Don't want to make numbers the prime goal: Bidya Sinha Mim
This year, I've had a great time when it comes to films. However, I just don't want to measure my work with numbers – I want to ensure their quality as well. I want to work on both the silver screen and OTT. | https://www.thedailystar.net/entertainment/tv-film/news/lets-be-better-version-ourselves-celebs-share-new-years-resolutions-3507581 | 2024-01-01T03:41:00Z |
EU Special Representative for CA Peter Burian pays working visit to Kazakhstan
During the visit the EUSR will discuss a wide range of issues related to EU-Kazakhstan cooperation in the light of the upcoming adoption of the new EU Strategy on Central Asia and full ratification of the Enhanced Partnership and Cooperation Agreement. Topics will include political and economic reforms, the rule of law, trade and economic relations and issues of the international agenda. A new EU Strategy on Central Asia will update the 2007 Strategy and bring it in line with developments in the region.
"We shall release a new EU Strategy on Central Asia before the summer, which will stress the new opportunities for EU-Central Asia cooperation, which some of the most positive regional dynamics in Central Asia have created. This Strategy will propose to build a stronger partnership with Central Asia so that the region develops as a more resilient, prosperous and closely interconnected economic and political space", noted Mr Peter Burian.
The new Strategy sets out the EU's approach to the promotion of sustainable connectivity in and with the region, in line with the EU's Strategy on Connecting Europe and Asia adopted on 18 October 2018. It will also foster a closer link between the EU's policies on Central Asia and on Afghanistan. The new EU Strategy will also provide guidance for the preparation of EU aid programming for the period 2021-2027, the official website of the Delegation of the European Union to Kazakhstan reads. | https://en.inform.kz/news/eu-special-representative-for-ca-peter-burian-pays-working-visit-to-kazakhstan_a3500898/ | 2024-01-01T03:41:01Z |
Says Narco-Terror links found in Turkey, Canda, Paris; 2024 to witness a deceive battle against narco-terror, its handlers; links between narco-terror, separatists, terrorism nailed in 2023; Will catch-hold of handlers sitting in other parts of world through Interpol
Yogesh Sagotra
Jammu, Dec 30 (KNO): J&K police wasn't fighting against the gun-wielding terrorists only but also the false narrative being spread by hundreds of fake social media handles of which 8000 we're identified in 2023. These fake handles are tasked to incite trouble and glorify terrorism, Director General of Police (DGP) RR Swain said Saturday.
“Our battle is not against terrorists only but against the narrative which is being spread by hundreds of fake social media handles of which 8000 fake social media handles—facebook, twitter and instagram were identified in 2023. Their handlers are sitting across the world and their aim is to incite trouble and glorify terrorism. They peddle wrong information. We are acting against them under the ambit of law after differentiating the genuine and not-genuine,” he said. “We will act against them under IT Act 61. If need arises, we will catch-hold of them through Interpol.”
Narco-Terror links found in Turkey, Canda, Paris: The year 2024 will witness a decisive battle against narco-terror. “The links between narco-terror, separatism and terrorism was already nailed in 2023,” he said.
“Links of narco-terrorism have been found in Kashmir to Jammu to Punjab and Delhi. Other links including the handlers were traced in Paris, Canada and Turkey. In the recent case of the Ramban narco-terror module, the mastermind was traced in Turkey.”
Cyber Crime, a lot more needs to be done: DGP Swain said that police are mindful about cybercrime and the fact is that this crime is going under-reported and affecting more people than what police actually knows. “We are upgrading the system and lot more needs to be done to prevent cybercrimes,” he said, adding that large amount was traced and given back to the people who were cheated through internet fraud and digital world frauds—(KNO) | https://thenorthlines.com/8000-fake-sm-handles-tasked-to-incite-trouble-in-jk-identified-dgp/ | 2024-01-01T03:41:02Z |

EU urges Venezuela to allow passage of humanitarian aid amid deadly clashes
The EU's high representative for foreign affairs and security policy, Federica Mogherini, said in a statement that tensions were escalating in the nation as a result of the regime's refusal "to recognize the humanitarian emergency."
"We strongly call on law enforcement and security bodies to show restraint, avoid use of force and allow for the entry of aid," Mogherini's statement said.
She warned that an increasing number of Venezuelan citizens were being impacted by worsening living conditions due to the "multidimensional crisis" affecting the country.
She said reports of "unrest, acts of violence and a growing number of victims, in particular in the border areas" were "worrying."
"We repudiate the use of irregular armed groups to intimidate civilians and lawmakers who have mobilized to distribute assistance," the EU statement said.
Venezuela has been steeped in a political crisis after opposition leader and president of the National Assembly Juan Guaido proclaimed himself interim president of the country at the beginning of 2019.
Guaido cited articles 233, 333 and 350 of the 1999 Constitution as justification for his move and claimed that President Nicolás Maduro had "usurped" his position by being sworn in as president following what he described as an illegitimate election.
The United States, Brazil, Canada and other Latin American countries, including Argentina, Colombia and Chile, have backed Guaido.
Venezuela, an oil-rich country, has been hammered by lower global oil prices and economic sanctions imposed by the US.
It has been in recession for nearly all of Maduro's time in office, who took over after predecessor Hugo Chavez's death in 2013. | https://en.inform.kz/news/eu-urges-venezuela-to-allow-passage-of-humanitarian-aid-amid-deadly-clashes_a3501586/ | 2024-01-01T03:41:08Z |
Pierce Brosnan accused of trespassing in Yellowstone Park walk
Former James Bond actor Pierce Brosnan is in hot water with Yellowstone Park authorities after straying off the beaten path in a geothermal area of the famed national wilderness.
The Irish heartthrob and on-screen superspy was strolling through the sprawling national park on November 1 when he was given a ticket for "foot travel in a thermal area," the Los Angeles Times reported, saying it had seen a copy of the citation.
Visitors to the 3,500-square-mile (9,000-square kilometer) park are warned to stay on specially designated boardwalks and trails to avoid the danger of slipping through a thin crust of ground and into the scalding waters below.
But it seems the former Remington Steele series leading man was not playing by the rules, and fell afoul of a park ranger.
"Foot travel in all thermal areas and within the Yellowstone Canyon between the Upper Falls and Inspiration Point must be confined to boardwalks or trails that are maintained for such travel and are marked by official signs," regulations say.
There was no immediate comment from Brosnan or his representatives.
Last year rangers found a bit of a human foot in one of the hot springs, where temperatures reach around 140 Fahrenheit (60 Celsius).
The body part was believed to have come from someone who slipped into the Abyss Pool a few months earlier.
In 2016 a young man died after coming off a boardwalk and falling into a hot spring at the Norris Geyser Basin.
Millions of people travel every year to Yellowstone, America's first national park, which covers portions of Wyoming, Idaho and Montana.
It is home to thousands of geothermal features -- hot springs, mudpots, steam vents and about half the world's active geysers, including Old Faithful.
The park was the inspiration for Jellystone Park, the home of beloved cartoon favorite Yogi Bear -- an affable but permanently hungry character whose chief preoccupation was stealing picnic baskets and outwitting a park ranger. | https://www.thedailystar.net/entertainment/tv-film/news/pierce-brosnan-accused-trespassing-yellowstone-park-walk-3506326 | 2024-01-01T03:41:07Z |

Eugene Onegin to premiere at Astana Opera
Director Davide Livermore has strong friendly ties with the Astana Opera. His first collaboration with the capital's opera house took place in 2017, when Livermore was a jury member of the prestigious Placido Domingo's Operalia, The World Opera Competition. At that time, the Italian stage director noted that culture development is at a very high level in Kazakhstan. Davide Livermore also spoke about the uniqueness of the Astana Opera House. Last summer, he staged Puccini's Turandot at the Astana Opera, and today he is working on the production of Tchaikovsky's Eugene Onegin.
"At the Astana Opera superb working conditions are created. It is gratifying that each cultural event is treated here with great reverence. For example, we repeatedly met with Minister Arystanbek Mukhamediuly throughout the staging works, and he took an active part in the creative process of preparing the opera Eugene Onegin. Moreover, we had wonderful time making music together, the minister is an excellent musician," Davide Livermore said.
Eugene Onegin or Tatyana Larina?
The novel in verse and opera have the same name, but it is known that Tchaikovsky, while retaining the original characteristics of the main heroes, focused on Tatyana Larina and initially wanted to call the opera after this character. The scenes of the opera organically depict the emotional experiences of lyrical heroes, emphasizing the depth of their feelings and emotions. The success of Tchaikovsky's opera Eugene Oneginwas that each viewer found in the musical work an echo of his or her own experiences and feelings, and the heroes of the drama were perceived by the audience as living, relatable people.
Director Davide Livermore believes that the opera Eugene Onegin is an integral part of emotional education for many generations.
"I would like for the viewers after watching the performance to say that this story is relevant today and that it resonates with them and touches their emotions. In this production we will see Tatyana's inner world. We will learn how a young girl discovers her womanhood, perfectly aware of what she has lost, what she has gained and discovered in life. All of this happens with a feeling of deep maturity. I would also like the audience's attention to be focused precisely on the depiction of Tatyana's inner world," Director Davide Livermore explains.
For this purpose, at the beginning of the opera the director included a new scene that is not in the score: the old, dying Tatyana, while summing up her life, is reminiscing about the cherished love story, hidden in far corners of her soul, which has caused the greatest upheavals and the strongest emotions of her life.
Music Director and Conductor Alan Buribayev notes that Tchaikovsky, turning to this novel and organizing the text into a libretto for the opera, understood what a great responsibility that was, as Pushkin's Eugene Onegin was immensely popular at all times.
"The composer wrote this opera in 1877, almost 50 years after the novel was created. Tchaikovsky included 7 scenes in it, all of which are mainly associated with Tatyana, as she is the key character for him. Therefore, the composer began to write the opera from the scene of Tatyana's letter. Two thirds of the opera were created very quickly - in the summer of 1877. He finished the next part of the opera only in February next year because of the hassle with his marriage."
During the rehearsals, the maestro explains that each character in the opera has his or her own musical image.
"I try to warm up the orchestra in the moments where Lensky appears, because he has a very hot temper, and make it ice cold in the scenes with cynical, bone-dry Onegin, in accordance with Pushkin's description of them, "They came together. Waves and stones, Or flame and ice, or verse and prose."
As the conductor explains, the composer wrote to Nikolai Rubinstein that the opera should be performed by young conservatory students, who know little about life, and thus will have a fresh approach to this story. However, a completely different fate awaited this opera, and today it is featured in all the leading international opera houses and it is one of the most beloved operas in the world. "I am happy that now it will be added to the Astana Opera's repertoire", concluded the maestro.
Stage Magic
While the stage director and the conductor are working on the content of the opera, all the production workshops in the opera house are working on its design.
The Head of the Design and Production Complex Victor Carare noted that the labor-intensive preparation process took about six months.
"Lush nature in this production will be in harmony with the architecture. The performance is full of video projections. In one of the houses where the main characters live, LED screens, showing colorful imagery, are mounted instead of windows. Animals are involved in the performance, for example, horses will participate in the duel scene, and the audience will also see a horse-drawn phaeton. In addition, the lighting designer's work, which favorably emphasizes extensive sets that fill the entire stage, will be interesting for the viewers. Undoubtedly, the audience will be impressed by the interior, decorated with a huge chandelier. A large rotating circle with young couples dancing on it will also amaze the theatregoers, and a big mirror will complete the picture. This production is different from many previous ones in that there are many moving set elements in it."
Costume Designers Sofya Tasmagambetova and Pavel Dragunov are working on Eugene Onegin for the first time. They have prepared around 250 costumes for this production, using the historical cuts and retaining the technologies of 1820s, so that the costumes look like reconstructions of that era's attire.
Designer Sofya Tasmagambetova created contrasting women's costumes for all three acts. Peasant women's dresses look rather elaborate and have interesting trimming. Speaking about the main characters' costumes, it was decided to surprise the audience gradually.
"It is enough to imagine classic Pushkin's times to understand the style of the production. It all starts quite simply: styles and finishing match the scene in the garden, and there will be more sumptuous, elegant, luxurious and sophisticated costumes in the scenes of Tatyana's birthday and Gremin's ball. We dyed 300 meters of organza in different shades of blue for this scene's costumes. It was important not to lose the lightness, airiness, since the color itself is quite 'heavy'. One of my favorite costumes was married Tatyana's gown. It reflects the deep mental state of the heroine. However, each character's personality, age and social status will be quite clearly stated in the costumes. For example, coquettish, frivolous Olga will be dressed in brighter dresses. All women's costumes are united by a common feature - they will be multi-layered and voluminous. In addition, almost all gowns are finished by hand," Sofya Tasmagambetova said.
"In the scene of Tatyana's birthday, we focused on the year 1820, just like in Pushkin's Eugene Onegin, but in the scene of Gremin's ball we moved the timeframe a little and showed the year 1830, not 1826, like in the novel. This is due to the fact that in the 1830s the costumes were more interesting, and we also wanted to demonstrate the contrast of the times. Strangely enough, all the theatre designers working on the opera Eugene Onegin move the action 50-60 years forward. Even designers making historical productions show the end of the 19th century, because the costumes of 1820s are much more difficult to make than the costumes of the end of 1870s, as they are clearer and closer to us. In our case, the audience will see tailcoats tailored in the fashion as close to the original as possible. I think everyone will be impressed by very complex tiered hairstyles adorned with feathers and wigs of the singers. We treated this work with great sense of responsibility, studied the details and the history of the opera's creation for a long time. We tried to be authentic, I hope we succeeded," Pavel Dragunov explains.
Costume designers, in accordance with the director's vision, used a restrained color palette. Fabrics fully correspond with the presented time period: muslin, taffeta, silk and others. Interestingly, back in those days, dandies wore 5-6 vests, and it took several hours to tie a cravat, but the singers need to tie them once and put on very quickly. For this, the designers will use small theatrical tricks.
The opera house's prop masters also have their own tricks of the trade. Their main task was to make the use of props comfortable for the singers during the performance. For example, they make sure that 25 pitchforks and rakes for the peasants are lightweight, yet sturdy at the same time. The most painstaking work was done on the orders and medals. The objects, although small, were made very realistic. The filigree craftsmanship of all the pieces includes cutting the metal precisely to give it a special ornate form of the orders, and also inlaying it with artificial stones. Looking closely, it is possible to even see a lacquered pattern in the middle.
According to the libretto, various treats were prepared for the guests in the scenes of Tatyana's birthday and the ball. The process of making cookies is very laborious, there are about 800 - 900 of them. The difficulty is that they are very sculptural in shape, made on the basis of papier-mâché technology. Multicolored paint is applied to the cookies, as the prop masters explain, this is the 'cream', and all of them feel a little bit like pastry chefs at these moments.
Craftswomen create romantic fans with lace trim, reticules, knitting baskets, and plastic glasses that cannot be distinguished from crystal ones at all. Male prop masters make candelabras, smoking pipes, walking sticks, trays, pocket-watch fobs, and, of course, duel revolvers...
On a High Note
The duel scene is already being rehearsed in the auditorium. Onegin and Lensky count down the steps and take aim at each other. Alexey Isaev (Russia) and Talgat Mussabaev are preparing the part of Onegin.
Talgat says that he first performed this role at the age of 24 at the Bolshoi Theatre of Russia.
"The part of Eugene Onegin has always been close to me, it fits my voice. This opera is very complex, everything must be performed perfectly. Onegin's character is very multifaceted; one can work endlessly on it. With age, a person reevaluates himself, so does my hero, who used to treat people ambiguously, not even understanding himself at times. I think his personality is taken from life. I prefer to approach the characters of the opera not as heroes and villains, but as ordinary people with their own complex destinies. I have performed this part many times in various opera houses, but I think that the best version will be in ours," Talgat Mussabayev says.
His colleague, Medet Chotabayev, is preparing the part of Lensky, which has opened the doors for the singer to a stage career.
"After graduating from the conservatory, this was my first role; I made my opera debut with it and I was so thrilled that at some point I wanted to run away from the stage. After many years, working on this part at the Astana Opera, I face not only challenging vocal tasks, but also having to convey the character interpretation by using acting skills. At the moment, the rehearsal process, most interesting for all artists, is underway, and it is a great pleasure for me to immerse myself in this work. This is a huge responsibility, because everyone knows this story from their school years, and therefore, it is necessary to create such incredible magic onstage so that the audience will believe us."
Zhan Tapin, who is feeling grateful to his musical destiny to have a chance reacquaint himself with this opera, is also preparing the part of Lensky.
"Tchaikovsky's music conveys fine aspects of the human soul. Lensky is a poet, a romantic. He is unique in his own way. I always go onstage in this role with great awe and thrill. My hero dies in a duel, and I must say that death scenes are always difficult to perform. I worry about Lensky, I pity him and every time I focus in order to get into character. It is also important for me to show his first love, his excitement, I know that these scenes inspire the audience very much."
Galina Cheplakova and Aigul Niyazova are preparing the leading role of Tatyana.
If Galina Cheplakova takes the stage in this role for the first time, Aigul Niyazova has starred in this part more than once.
"This work was created by two geniuses - Alexander Pushkin and Pyotr Tchaikovsky. It can rightly be called a world classical masterpiece. The entire creative team is anticipating the premiere, at the moment the staging work is underway on the production. This heroine is very thrilling for me, as, after all, Tatyana Larina is the main character of Tchaikovsky's opera. The main idea and complexity of this character is that, throughout the opera, Tatyana, with the one and only great love of her life, is undergoing a transformation from a young girl to a high-society lady. Despite her feelings, she accepts her fate and stays true to the duty of honor and morality. I believe that this opera can touch the hearts of everyone in the auditorium," Aigul Niyazova emphasized.
Galina Cheplakova will present her own interpretation of Tatyana.
"My heroine is sentimental, gentle, dreamy, tender, undoubtedly, with a rich inner world, and she certainly goes through a lot. I never thought that this part would suit me, until I have taken it to heart all the way through to the end, and then I realized that it reflects my inner self. I am convinced that in order to be able to portray this character, you need to rely on life experience: to have known love, experienced both good and bitter moments of this wonderful feeling. Working on this production, the director strived to find an individual approach to each soloist."
Dina Khamzina and Tatyana Vitsinskaya will portray Tatyana's sister Olga.
Dina Khamzina's talent was applauded at many venues, including the Bolshoi Theatre of Russia, where she created a superb portrayal of Olga. The singer explains that in every part she performs she always tries to find some kind of zest.
"In Olga, her liveliness and flightiness come to the forefront. She is good-natured, easy-going, tries to see only good things around her and rejoice in it. She can be portrayed in different ways. In terms of vocals, we have made many findings, which should cause an interesting public reaction. I performed this role at the Bolshoi Theatre of Russia, the Abai Opera House. I like that the director in this current production does not stray far from the original source. This is a classic production in which it is necessary to convey the spirit of the era, and, of course, a lot depends on acting. We have a wonderful production team, which shares new valuable experience with us."
For Tatyana Vitsinskaya, Olga is one of her favorite roles.
"I think the audience will be very pleased with the upcoming premiere, as the director's vision of the characters fully coincides with what Pushkin gives us. We try to portray these characters through our artistic performances, vocals and Tchaikovsky's great music. Before the production work began, I reread the novel and watched many different productions on the Internet. Certainly, I will rely on the already existing experience of performing this role, but I will try to find new colors in my voice to convey the beauty of this part. As a rule, all the mezzo-soprano roles tend to be dramatic, Olga's part is perhaps one of the few where the heroine is happy, beautiful, young, which gives me a special inspiration."
In addition to vocalists, ballet dancers under the direction of Choreographer Elena Sherstneva did a tremendous work in preparation for the premiere.
The opera Eugene Onegin is timeless, which is partly due to the nature of the novel itself. What fate awaits this production at the Astana Opera is difficult to say, but the fact that everyone working on it has unconditional love for Eugene Onegin and treated the material with great reverence gives confidence in its success. | https://en.inform.kz/news/eugene-onegin-to-premiere-at-astana-opera_a3495610/ | 2024-01-01T03:41:15Z |
