Future of OPEC+ deal to become clear in April, says Lukoil CEO
"Everything will depend on how the situation around Iran develops in April. How much the sanctions will be strengthened," he said.OPEC and other oil-producing countries that are not part of the cartel agreed in December last year to cut production by 1.2 mln barrels per day against the level of October 2018.
According to this decision, 11 OPEC countries participating in the agreement should reduce production by 812,000 barrels per day - to 25.94 mln barrels. In January, according to the report, these countries reduced production by only 698,000 barrels per day - to 26.05 mln barrels. Thus, the level of execution of the deal by the OPEC countries in January was 86%. Venezuela, Libya and Iran are exempt from production cuts.
Iran, which is under US sanctions aimed at reducing its oil exports to zero, almost did not lose production in January. According to OPEC secondary sources, its production fell by only 4,000 barrels per day - to 2.75 mln barrels.
Production also decreased in Venezuela - by 59,000 barrels per day to 1.1 mln barrels, and in Libya - by 52,000 barrels per day to 895,000 barrels.

The change opens up the world to Kosovans in a completely new way.
of Kosovo citizens will be able to travel to the European Schengen area of free movement without a visa from New Year's Day. This also applies to Finland.
Among other things, the news agency AFP reports that Kosovans are allowed to spend a maximum of 90 days in a 180-day period without a visa in the Schengen area.
The change opens up the world in a whole new way for Kosovans, because up until now it was possible to travel without a visa to only 14 countries with a Kosovo passport. The government of Kosovo has campaigned to prevent citizens from abusing the visa exemption to look for work in EU countries.
Prime minister Albin Kurtin was scheduled to speak on New Year's Day at the Pristina airport to the first Kosovars who left for EU countries without a visa.
With a population of around 1.8 million, Kosovo is the last of the Western Balkan countries that was still without Schengen visa exemption. The EU Commission considered the exemption to be subject to, among other things, the fulfillment of certain conditions in Kosovo's border control and entry practices.
In the year In Kosovo, which declared independence in 2008, the change is seen as a step towards the country's EU membership.
However, the EU member states Spain, Cyprus, Greece, Romania and Slovakia stand in the way of the dream, which do not recognize Kosovo as independent – not so much because of Kosovo itself, but for internal political, ethnic independence movements' reasons.
The same opinion is shared by Serbia, which considers the Albanian-majority Kosovo as its province and the cradle of its culture.
Kosovo is also not a member of the UN, although its independence is recognized by the majority of UN countries.

ISLAMABAD - Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) Co-Chairman Asif Ali Zardari’s optimism to play a crucial role in formation of the next government is irking the rivals who believe in their own victory.
With Pakistan Muslim League (Nawaz) sensing a win in the February 8 polls, the PPP supremo is not giving up - claiming a key role of the PPP after the elections. Zardari argues that together with the smaller parties, the PPP will lead a coalition government. He has already predicted a split mandate with no party coming out as a clear winner.
Zardari stresses the inevitability of alliances, noting that no party could attain the necessary 172 seats in the National Assembly alone. His son Bilawal Bhutto Zardari is actively campaigning nationwide, projecting his party as the solution to Pakistan’s challenges. He is targeting the PML-N in his campaign, urging older politicians like Nawaz Sharif to step aside and allow the new generation to lead in the February 8 elections. Despite this, Zardari partially supports the PML-N’s approach, advocating for a conducive environment of mutual respect, hinting at potential future alliances.
Zardari highlights differences in mindset within the PPP leadership, distinguishing between PPP and Pakistan Peoples Party Parliamentarians (PPPP). As the president of PPPP, Zardari asserts authority in ticket allocation for elections, including issuing tickets for Bilawal. Reflecting on his previous coalition experience with the Pakistan Democratic Movement (PDM), Zardari suggests Nawaz Sharif might not necessarily lead the alliance. He praises Shehbaz Sharif’s work ethic but mentions disagreements that impacted the nation.
The analysts do not see the PPP sweeping the polls but predict a better show by the party in these polls. Zardari’s optimism may be a happy misunderstanding but it has caused the rivals to take the PPP threat seriously. The Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) shared that 28,626 candidates, including 3,139 women, have filed nominations for the February 8 general elections. The elections will cover 1,085 general and reserved seats of the national and provincial assemblies.
The breakdown includes 336 National Assembly (NA) seats, 226 general, and 70 reserved for women and non-Muslims. The provincial assemblies comprise 593 general seats, 156 reserved for women and minorities. Zardari emphasized the increased participation of women candidates, with 11% of the total candidates being women, a notable rise compared to previous elections. Appeals against acceptance or rejection can be submitted by January 3, with decisions by January 10. The ECP will release the list of candidates on January 11, and withdrawals are allowed until January 12, just a day before electoral symbols are allotted on January 13.

Actor Shabir Ahluwalia will be seen transforming himself physically into a female avatar for the upcoming sequence of the show ‘Pyaar Ka Pehla Naam Radha Mohan’, and shared how this transition will elevate the drama quotient in the storyline.
The mature romantic drama based in modern-day Vrindavan has an engaging storyline and strong characters such as Mohan (Shabir Ahluwalia), Radha (Neeharika Roy), and Damini (Sambhabana Mohanty).
In the recent episodes audiences have seen Mohan’s voice gradually change, his eyes turn bloodshot, his fingers with nail paint on and all of this has left Radha and his family members completely perplexed. What lies in store for the audiences in the upcoming track is bound to give audiences goosebumps, as fans of Shabir will see their favourite actor transform into a female avatar.
Adding a layer of authenticity, Shabir has gone above and beyond in playing this never seen before avatar to the hilt. This bold transformation of Mohan’s persona promises to revolutionise the plot, land the big revelation impactfully and flip the tale on its head.
Talking about the same, Shabir said: “A lot of actors have cross-dressed at some point in their careers, but it has usually been for comic relief. In contrast, my character’s transition into a female avatar will elevate the drama quotient and the intensity of a much-awaited highpoint in the plot.”
“I’ve embraced it as a challenge, giving it my all. I have refrained in not caricaturizing the look or mannerisms but playing it with subtlety and restraint. I hope I've done justice to the script, and the audience feels the impact of this gripping sequence,” added the ‘Kumkum Bhagya’ actor.

Musta aukko was found for the first time in the back lines of the First World War. The discoverer was a German artillery officer Karl Schwarzschild, who was a distinguished mathematician and director of the Potsdam Astronomical Observatory. He calculated the trajectories of German artillery grenades on the eastern front.

Twitter backer knocks billions off its value after Musk’s outburst
By James Warrington
An investor in X, formerly called Twitter, has written down the value of its stake by $US2.85 billion ($4.2 billion) after its owner Elon Musk told boycotting advertisers to “go f--- yourself”.
Fidelity, which helped Musk buy the company for $US44 billion ($65 billion) in 2022, now believes it is worth 71.5 per cent less than at the time of purchase.
The US investment giant had already slashed the value of its investment by 65 per cent at the end of October but deepened the discount in November. It came in the same month that Musk launched a tirade against advertisers.
Speaking at a New York Times conference, Musk claimed a boycott by advertisers was going to “kill” the company, adding, “If somebody is going to try to blackmail me with advertising, blackmail me with money, go f--- yourself.”
Apple, IBM and Disney are among the major brands to cut ties with the social media platform, amid concerns about lax moderation under Musk and the billionaire’s freewheeling personal style.
Fidelity’s valuation cut, which was first reported by Axios, gives the company a notional value of just $US12.5 billion and suggests X has lost $US2.85 billion of worth in the eyes of Fidelity in just four weeks.
The investment group, which contributed more than $US300 million to Musk’s takeover, does not disclose how it values privately held companies. Other shareholders may value their stakes differently.
However, X’s own internal share plan for staff valued the company at just $US19 billion in October – less than half the sum Musk paid for it.
X has undergone a turbulent period under the ownership of the Tesla billionaire. The debt-fuelled takeover has left the company struggling to break even and Musk has slashed thousands of jobs and introduced subscription fees in response.
Worsening the debt crisis is the reluctance of advertisers to work with the platform since the takeover.
X is believed to have lost 60 per cent of its advertisers after the takeover amid concerns brands were appearing alongside harmful material.
The European Commission has opened an investigation into the company over its alleged role in disseminating propaganda relating to terrorist group Hamas.
Musk has also been accused of personally promoting antisemitic and racist conspiracy theories, although he has insisted he is against antisemitism of any kind.
Linda Yaccarino, who replaced Musk as chief executive in June, has been scrambling to revive revenue and has staged a charm offensive with advertisers in a bid to win back trust.

Bobbie Jean Carter was found unresponsive in a bathroom in her home in Tampa, Fla. on Dec. 23 and rushed to a hospital, where she was pronounced dead, police said last week. The cause of the 41-year-old's death was not released.
Celebrity Deaths: 2023's Fallen Stars
Bobbie Jean Carter's death marked the fourth major loss for Nick's family in 11 years. Their brother Aaron Carter died at age 34 in November 2022 after he was found unresponsive inside his bathtub. The cause of his death was later determined to be drowning and the effects of difluoroethane (compressed gas) and alprazolam (generic Xanax).
Entertainment News
The "I Want Candy" singer was preceded in death by sister Leslie Carter, who died of an overdose in 2012 at age 25, and dad Bob Carter, who passed away at 64 in 2017.
One day following Bobbie Jean Carter's death, sister Angel Carter—Aaron's twin—penned a message to her late sibling.
"You had a great sense of humor, and a lively spirit," she wrote on Instagram Dec. 24. "Growing up, I was your baby, and you were my best friend. Life wasn't fair to you, that I know. Sometimes, it feels like you didn't have a shot, no matter what."
She continued, "Experiencing innocence instead of being burdened by trauma, pain, and suffering is incredibly important for children, particularly at such a young age. I know why Leslie, Aaron, and now you ended up in the circumstances that you did. I share that pain we experienced during our childhood and I'm sorry you didn't have an opportunity for a better life."
Angel Carter called on people to "break down barriers, reduce stigmas, and cultivate a society where seeking mental health support is met with understanding and encouragement."
She continued, "This starts with our children, and creating healthy conversation within the home."
Aaron' Carters team also shared a message to his family following Bobbie Jean Carter's death. "This year has definitely been one with such loss and tragedy," read the statement to E! News. "May you be filled with love and comfort from supporting fans and friends through this tough time. You are not alone. We know Aaron is in heaven with his sisters and reunited. May they rest in peace."

A 53-year-old man and his child were in custody Sunday after the boy took a stolen gun from his father's car and killed a fellow 10-year-old, authorities in Sacramento County, California, said.
The attack unfolded Saturday afternoon in the Foothill Farms community when the man sent his son to retrieve cigarettes from his car, the Sacramento County Sheriff's Office said.
The boy then "took a gun from inside the vehicle and bragged that his father had a gun," the sheriff's office said in a statement released Sunday. "He then proceeded to shoot the victim once and ran into a nearby apartment."
Deputies found the victim bleeding from the head and neck, the sheriff's office said, and administered CPR and other "life-saving efforts" until Sacramento Metro Fire Department first responders arrived. The child was rushed to a hospital, where he was pronounced dead.
Investigators believe the suspected shooter's father, identified as Arkete Davis, 53, tried to get rid of the gun by placing it in a trash can, the sheriff's office said. Authorities allege the firearm was stolen.
Family members identified the victim as Keith “KJ” Frierson, NBC affiliate KCRA of Sacramento reported.
The name of the suspected shooter was withheld because he is a juvenile. He was booked on suspicion of murder, the sheriff's office said.
His father was arrested and booked on suspicion of possession of a firearm by a felon, criminal storage of a firearm, carrying a stolen loaded firearm in a vehicle, child endangerment and acting as an accessory to a crime after the fact, according to inmate records.
It was not clear whether the suspects have legal counsel for the case. The Sacramento County Public Defender's Office did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
Davis was being held in lieu of $500,000 bail, inmate records indicate. Sheriff's officials said he was scheduled to appear in court Wednesday.
The boy was detained at the Sacramento County Youth Detention Facility, the sheriff's office said, with coming court appearances unavailable.
Juveniles in Sacramento County must be charged within 48 business hours of arrest or detention. Bail is not used, but minors can be released to parents or legal guardians.

The Tokyo Auto Salon gives Japanese automakers and tuners a place to show off their wildest wares. Suzuki is bringing a tiny, rugged off-road concept called the Super Carry Mountain Trail to the event, and we're already in love with it.
In a translation of Suzuki's announcement, the company calls the Mountain Trail concept: "A car for active adults to enjoy the mountains in a stoic manner, it expresses a new worldview of commercial vehicles that can be used not only for business but also for fun."
Suzuki Super Carry For Tokyo Auto Salon
Suzuki Super Carry
The Super Carry is an extended cab version of the standard Suzuki Carry. While the company doesn't yet list all of the modifications for the Mountain Trail, just looking at it shows off many of the revisions.
The mini truck gains a front skid plate with recovery hooks and a light bar above the windshield. It also looks to have a little winch. The standard doors are gone, with tubular pieces in their place. Inside, there are sport seats with harnesses. An external roll cage includes a storage rack on the roof. There's only a glimpse of the rear, but a fuel can and spare tire are visible. Plus, the ride height might be a bit taller than stock.
Even if there are no drivetrain changes to the concept, the Super Carry is available with enough equipment to maximize off-road traction. Buyers can get it with a part-time four-wheel drive system with high- and low-gearing settings. There's also a locking differential in case things get really slippery.
The regular Super Carry is not a particularly powerful machine, though. It comes with a naturally aspirated 658-cc three-cylinder engine making 50 horsepower and 44 lb-ft of torque. So, while you might be able to go off-road, don't expect to travel very quickly.
This year's Tokyo Auto Salon runs from January 12 through 14. We hope to get more info and pictures of the Super Carry Mountain Trail concept then. It's hauling some gear in the back that we can't get a good look at.

Actress Shrashti Maheshwari, who became a mother to a baby girl on June 5, shares how life after
pregnancy comes with its own share of challenges. The Pandya Store actress reveals how she fell ill a few months after her delivery and had to be hospitalised. She says, "Life after pregnancy has been a challenging journey. I was fortunate to have a normal delivery.
However, it came with its own set of challenges. I focused on taking time to recover and nurture my daughter, Kaira."
She took a solo trip a few months after her delivery and that's when she fell ill. "After almost 5 months of Kaira's birth, I took a solo trip and on my holiday, I contracted dengue and was hospitalised. It took me around ten days to recover. I chose to keep this private as I didn't want to seek public sympathy over my health issues," says Shrasti, who has acted in shows like Divya Drishti, Vignaharta Ganesh and Baal Shiv.
She is grateful that she has a good support system. She says. "My mother along with my mother-in-law, played an instrumental role in my post-pregnancy recovery and in looking after Kaira. It's common for new mothers to rely on their mothers and mothers-in-law during such times, and I was no exception. But now, my baby seems to know my mother more than me."
On the work front, Shrashti wants to get back to the sets, but casting agents seem to have assumed that she has taken a break post childbirth, she says. "After my delivery in Mumbai, I was travelling often to Bareilly because my parents were looking after Kaira in my hometown. So many assume that I have stopped working and have taken a break. It is not true and I want to continue working. I am as committed to my career as well."

Germany eyes closer cooperation with Astana format
Mass spoke at the Munich Security Conference where he underlined the importance of multilateral diplomacy in addressing today's challenges and conflicts, including the civil war in Syria.
"I spoke this week with the new UN Special Envoy Geir Pedersen, and discussed how we can bring different strands of the Astana process and the Small Group closer together," he said.
The Small Group on Syria is consisted of the U.S., France, U.K., Germany, Jordan, Egypt and the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
Mass said efforts of all these actors were focused on convening the constitutional committee and the implementation of UN Security Council resolution 2254.
The Astana process, spearheaded by Turkey, Russia and Iran, has been successful in bringing a cease-fire in Syria and led to the creation of de-escalation zones.
The guarantors of the Astana Process have repeatedly stressed the process was not an alternative to UN-led peace talks in Geneva for a political solution in Syria.

Chief Justice Roberts casts a wary eye on the uses of artificial intelligence in the federal courts
WASHINGTON (AP) — Chief Justice John Roberts on Sunday turned his focus to the promise, and shortcomings, of artificial intelligence in the federal courts, in an annual report that made no mention of Supreme Court ethics or legal controversies involving Donald Trump.
Describing artificial intelligence as the “latest technological frontier,” Roberts discussed the pros and cons of computer-generated content in the legal profession. His remarks come just a few days after the latest instance of AI-generated fake legal citations making their way into official court records, in a case involving ex-Trump lawyer Michael Cohen.
“Always a bad idea,” Roberts wrote in his year-end report, noting that “any use of AI requires caution and humility.”
At the same time, though, the chief justice acknowledged that AI can make it much easier for people without much money to access the courts. “These tools have the welcome potential to smooth out any mismatch between available resources and urgent needs in our court system,” Roberts wrote.
The report came at the end of a year in which a series of stories questioned the ethical practices of the justices and the court responded to critics by adopting its first code of conduct. Many of those stories focused on Justice Clarence Thomas and his failure to disclose travel, other hospitality and additional financial ties with wealthy conservative donors including Harlan Crow and the Koch brothers. But Justices Samuel Alito and Sonia Sotomayor also have been under scrutiny.
The country also is entering an the beginning of an election year that seems likely to enmesh the court in some way in the ongoing criminal cases against Trump and efforts to keep the Republican former president off the 2024 ballot.
Along with his eight colleagues, Roberts almost never discusses cases that are before the Supreme Court or seem likely to get there. In past reports, he has advocated for enhanced security and salary increases for federal judges, praised judges and their aides for dealing with the coronavirus pandemic and highlighted other aspects of technological changes in the courts.
Roberts once famously compared judges to umpires who call balls and strikes, but don’t make the rules. In his latest report, he turned to a different sport, tennis, to make the point that technology won’t soon replace judges.
At many tennis tournaments, optical technology, rather than human line judges, now determines “whether 130 mile per hour serves are in or out. These decisions involve precision to the millimeter. And there is no discretion; the ball either did or did not hit the line. By contrast, legal determinations often involve gray areas that still require application of human judgment,” Roberts wrote.
Looking ahead warily to the growing use of artificial intelligence in the courts, Roberts wrote: “I predict that human judges will be around for a while. But with equal confidence I predict that judicial work — particularly at the trial level — will be significantly affected by AI.”

This Friday afternoon, the Thuillier theater hosted the eleventh edition of the “Share your talents” gala. This artistic and solidarity initiative raised more than 3,300 euros for the SOLUM association (Solidarity for the World), destined for the missions of the Carmelite fathers in Burkina Faso, Togo and Ivory Coast. The public contributed more than 1,500 euros: the Reina group, 1,000 and the Cervantes school, 800. This educational center also gave another 800 euros to the UAPO Foundation (Oncology Patient Support Unit) during the gala. Dance groups from different academies and the conservatory, as well as musical groups and soloists participated in this artistic marathon whose main characteristic is sharing experiences and doing so in a supportive and fraternal environment. Among the participating groups and soloists were the Animeros de Caravaca; the Rociero Choir of Caravaca de la Cruz; the dance academies “Dafne Dance Academy” and “EDIG Dance Studio”; a dance group from the Conservatory of Music and the caravaqueña singer Sonia García. The gala was presented by Cristian Pérez, an Engineering student at the Polytechnic University of Valencia and member of the Animeros de Caravaca group.
This activity arose eleven years ago within the Unity and Fraternity association formed by a group of people from the Focolare Movement in Caravaca de la Cruz. The vice president of the association, Consuelo Marín, commented that “one more year we meet to make the concern of those of us who are part of the “Unidad y Fraternidad” association a reality, which consists of living fraternity by undertaking activities that allow us to grow unity. among us and to do good for humanity. “In this way – she added – the possibility of getting closer, getting to know each other and carrying out activities in which our predilection for those most in need becomes concrete is revealed.”
The purpose of “Share your talents” is to promote actions that allow working towards the common good and giving visibility to artistic talents; and, at the same time, to associations and institutions that work to meet the needs of different groups, both in the municipality of Caravaca and in other places.
Those attending the gala, friends and family collaborated with the acquisition of tickets with which they could participate in the raffle of 17 lots of products offered by individuals, businesses and companies. Professor Lázaro Amor, representing the Cervantes school, delivered two checks of 800 euros each to Solmun's secretary, Antonia García, and the collaborator of the UAPO Foundation, in Caravaca, Ana Belén Martínez. Both thanked the solidarity action of this educational center and reported on the actions they carry out and the objectives they pursue.
Before the end of the gala, Sonia López Giménez, representing Unidad y Fraternidad, presented a check for 2,546 euros to Teresa Aranda, Solmun delegate in Caravaca de la Cruz. Aranda thanked UyF for the initiative, the public's attendance and the artistic contributions of the participating artists. She encouraged UyF members to continue working and organizing these types of solidarity initiatives. On behalf of the Caravaca de la Cruz City Council, collaborator of the event, Lydia Melgares, councilor for Social Services and Health, was present at the theater; Isabel López, Councilor for Family, Seniors and People with Special Needs; and Salvador López, Councilor for Youth, Open Government and Citizen Participation, who addressed the attendees to thank the artistic participation and encourage the Unidad y Fraternidad association to continue working on the different programs it carries out in the municipality.

Discovery of Double-Cone Structures
An international research team, led by the Centre national de la recherche scientifique (CNRS), found the double-cone-shaped structures characteristic of galactic winds when examining a sample of around 100 galaxies. However, these are only visible in specific spectral lines of light and only if the sensitivity of the measurement is extremely high. Previously only very few such cases were known, most of which were discovered also with the MUSE instrument.
Professor Lutz Wisotzki, head of the Galaxies and Quasars section at the Leibniz Institute for Astrophysics Potsdam (AIP) and co-author of the article in the science journal Nature says: “MUSE shows us that such galactic-wide outflows are present in almost every star-forming galaxy. In addition, the new results allow us to recognize exactly what size and shape these galactic winds typically have. Until now, this was only possible in very rare extreme cases.”
Role of Outflowing Gas in Cosmic Evolution
Outflowing gas is thought to play a crucial role in the cosmic evolution of galaxies by regulating their growth and star formation. Theoretical calculations predict “bipolar” shapes for the outflows, which extend above and below the galactic plane far into the circumgalactic medium. Similar shapes have also been observed directly in some nearby galaxies, such as the “cigar galaxy” M82 and even in our own Milky WayThe Milky Way is the galaxy that contains our Solar System and is part of the Local Group of galaxies. It is a barred spiral galaxy that contains an estimated 100-400 billion stars and has a diameter between 150,000 and 200,000 light-years. The name "Milky Way" comes from the appearance of the galaxy from Earth as a faint band of light that stretches across the night sky, resembling spilled milk.” data-gt-translate-attributes=”[{“attribute”:”data-cmtooltip”, “format”:”html”}]” tabindex=”0″ role=”link”>Milky Way, but there we can only see the innermost regions and cannot create an overall picture.
Galactic Winds in the Young Universe
Cosmological simulations of galaxy formation predict for the young universe that the phenomenon of galactic winds occurred much more frequently and strongly during these early phases: Due to the higher star formation activity of young galaxies, there were more supernova explosions and thus stronger outflows. These transport gas and energy from a galaxy into its surroundings, thus depriving it of the necessary fuel for further star formation, while at the same time enriching its “circumgalactic” environment. This so-called feedback process is presumably a crucial element in our understanding of the formation and evolution of galaxies, but it has only been insufficiently constrained through observations due to the difficulty of detecting the phenomenon.
New Insights From MUSE
The new study with the MUSE instrument now shows directly that the galactic gas flows out into the surroundings of the galaxies, reaching distances of more than 30,000 light years. The observable signal depends strongly on the orientation of the galaxy relative to the line of sight: if the system is viewed from the side, there is strong emission above and below the plane of the galaxy, whereas for galaxies viewed from “above” or “below,” the signal is weaker and more evenly distributed. These observations impressively confirm the previously theoretically predicted bipolar form of the outflows perpendicular to the plane of the galaxy.

Xi says China will ‘surely be reunified’ with self-ruled Taiwan in New Year’s address
Beijing: Chinese President Xi Jinping said China would “surely be reunified” with Taiwan during his televised New Year’s address, renewing Beijing’s threats to take over the self-ruled island, which it considers its own.
Taiwan split from China amid civil war in 1949, but Beijing continues to regard the island of 23 million with its high-tech economy as Chinese territory and has been ramping up its threat to achieve that by military force if necessary.
“China will surely be reunified, and all Chinese on both sides of the Taiwan Strait should be bound by a common sense of purpose,” Xi said in his annual address, according to the official Xinhua News Agency.
China has described Taiwan’s January 13 presidential and parliamentary elections as a choice between war and peace.
Beijing considers the presidential front-runner, William Lai, who currently serves as vice president from the ruling Democratic People’s Party, a “separatist” and has accused him and Taiwan’s President Tsai Ing-wen of trying to provoke a Chinese attack on the island.
On Saturday, Chen Binhua, spokesman for China’s Taiwan Affairs Office, called Lai a “destroyer of peace” following a televised debate earlier that day in which Lai defended Taiwan’s right to rule itself as a democracy.
Chen said Lai’s discourse at the debate was “full of confrontational thinking,” adding that the vice president is “the instigator of a potential dangerous war in the Taiwan Strait”.
Lai had said during the debate that Taiwan is not subordinate to China and that he was open to communications with Beijing “as long as there is equality and dignity on both sides of the Taiwan Strait.” While Lai doesn’t describe himself as seeking independence from Beijing, he generally maintains Taiwan is already an independent country.
Lai’s election rivals include Hou Yu-ih from the more China-friendly Kuomintang party, and Ko Wen-je from the Taiwan People’s Party.
Economic reform
The government has in recent months announced a series of measures to shore up China’s feeble post-pandemic economic recovery, which is being held back by a property slump, local government debt risks and slow global growth.
In his speech, Xi said China would deepen reforms to shore up confidence in the economy.
Xi said China will “consolidate and enhance the positive trend of economic recovery, and achieve stable and long-term economic development,” Xi said.
“We must comprehensively deepen reform and opening up, further boost confidence in development, enhance economic vitality, and make greater efforts to promote education, promote science and technology, and cultivate talents.”
Xi voiced his concerns over difficulties facing some firms’ operations and the hardship facing some people in employment and their daily lives, and the impact of natural disasters such as floods and earthquakes in some regions.
China will promote high-quality development and balance development and security in a well-coordinated way, Xi added.
Analysts expect China’s economic growth to hit the official target of around 5 per cent this year, and Beijing is expected to maintain the same target next year.
Earlier this month, top Chinese leaders met and laid out economic plans for 2024, pledging to take more steps to support the recovery. The central bank has pledged to step up policy adjustments to support the economy and promote a rebound in prices, amid signs of rising deflationary pressures.

A Colorado mother suspected of killing two of her children was apprehended in the United Kingdom this weekend, Colorado Springs police said.
Kimberlee Singler, 35, was taken into custody without incident by U.K. authorities, the Colorado Springs Police Department said late Sunday. Details, including the location of the apprehension and whether an extradition was forthcoming, were pending, the police department said.
"Detectives with the Colorado Springs Police Department’s homicide unit continue to work closely with multiple law enforcement agencies in pursuing the ongoing investigation," it said.
Singler was named in an arrest warrant that alleges she committed murder, attempted murder, child abuse and assault, according to police. She was last seen Dec. 23, the CSPD said.
On Dec. 19, officers responding to an early morning 911 call about a burglary at Singler's condo found a girl, 9, and a boy, 7, dead at the scene, police said.
Singler and an 11-year-old daughter were hospitalized, they said.
Investigators came to believe that the claim of burglary was unfounded, and the arrest warrant was obtained, police said.
The suspect and her estranged husband have been locked in a contentious and yearslong divorce case, according to court records.

Actors Sumeet Raghavan, Nishant Malkani, Mahesh Thakur and Pariva Pranati have opened up about their year-end reflections and aspirations for what lies ahead.
As 2024 draws to a close, the excitement for a fresh chapter intensifies. From heartfelt resolutions to joyous celebrations, the artistes shared their plans on how they will ring in the New Year.
Sumeet, who plays Rajesh Wagle in ‘Wagle Ki Duniya’, said: “In the hustle and bustle of life, amid resolutions and plans, it's the love and warmth of our family that weave the most beautiful moments.
"Much like Rajesh, who values family above all else in 'Wagle Ki Duniya', for me, what matters most is my family, especially around the New Year when everyone is finally free and has time to spend with each other. This New Year, I encourage everyone to embrace their dear ones and cherish moments with siblings and parents, as much as possible.”
Nishant, who plays Raghav Kaul in ‘Pashminna – Dhaage Mohabbat Ke’, said: “This past year has truly been a blessing for me. Being part of a grand project like 'Pashminna' and then spending a good part of the year shooting in the most breathtaking locations in Kashmir -- as an actor, I couldn't have asked for anything better.
"Here's hoping the next year gets even bigger and better. As we enter the New Year, I want to extend my warmest wishes to all my fans. May the coming year bring you love, growth, and beautiful moments.”
Mahesh, who portrays Jaidev Sharma in ‘Aangan Aapno Kaa’, shared, “May this year be more than just ticking off accomplishments from your to-do list; let it be a time when you savor each small victory. The New Year, for me, symbolises a fresh start, and that's exactly what it has been.
"With our show 'Aangan' recently released, my aspirations for the coming year revolve around the show and how the characters shape up. I hope this New Year brings immense joy and love to all the wonderful viewers who have been a part of our journey in ‘Aangan’.”
Pariva, who plays Vandana Wagle in ‘Wagle Ki Duniya’, said: “This year on 'Wagle Ki Duniya' we delved into serious and sensitive topics like cancer, which have significantly increased my appreciation for time and moments in my personal life. As we embrace the New Year, I wish everyone to experience moments filled with the warmth of loved ones and the joy of creating beautiful memories together.
“Whether it's a shared meal, a heartfelt conversation, or simply being together, every moment spent with family and friends is precious.”

By Christian Wienberg
Copenhagen: Queen Margrethe II of Denmark, the world’s longest-serving monarch, has said she will hand over her position to her son after 52 years on the throne.
The queen, 83, cited deteriorating health for her decision, in a speech to the nation on Sunday.
The queen has suffered from back and knee pain in recent years.
After undergoing surgery in 2023, she quit a heavy smoking habit, which had lasted 66 years and often was subject of debate. Health professionals had called on the queen to be a better role model.
After the 2022 death of Britain’s Queen Elizabeth II, who was a close friend as well as a distant cousin, Margrethe became the world’s longest-ruling monarch. Hassanal Bolkiah, the Sultan of Brunei, has held the title of ruler longer than Margrethe, but his country only became independent in 1984. Margrethe also in 2023 became the longest-sitting ruler in the 1200 years of the Danish monarchy.
The popularity of the queen, known for her sharp wit and artistic abilities, has supported Europe’s oldest monarchy through a half-century during which Denmark underwent sweeping societal changes, and royal houses elsewhere in Europe became mired in scandal.
Her position as monarch in a country with a democratic constitution has never widely been questioned. In a 2022 opinion poll by newspaper Jyllands-Posten, 72 per cent of Danes said they supported the monarchy. In a 2023 survey by TV2, 78 per cent said they expected Denmark would still have a monarchy in 50 years, up from 67 per cent in a 2015 poll.
Not that Margrethe’s reign was crisis-free.
In 2022, she stripped four of her grandchildren of their royal titles in a streamlining move, provoking what she acknowledged were “strong reactions.” And during her ailing husband’s final years, he complained publicly about his role.
Part of the queen’s appeal has come from her multiple talents.
She’s fluent in Danish, German, English, French and Swedish. Her work as an artist has spanned paintings, book illustrations, theatre costume designs and church textiles. Her works have been displayed in more than 50 museums from Tokyo to Washington.
In 1981, working under a pseudonym, she translated into Danish a book by the French philosopher and feminist Simone de Beauvoir, All Men Are Mortal.
Although Margrethe was the first woman to rule Denmark in 560 years, she refused to vocally promote gender equality, to the disappointment of some members of Danish women’s rights groups.
“I prefer not to be involved in any movement,” she said during a trip to the US in 1976, when gender issues were high on the agenda in her homeland. “I have sympathy for it, but my job is to be queen, and that requires all my abilities and strength.”
Margrethe was born on April 16, 1940, the first of three daughters of King Frederik IX and Queen Ingrid. Her birth at the royal palace in Copenhagen came a week after Nazi Germany attacked and occupied Denmark.
At the time, she wasn’t in line to become head of state, as the constitution only allowed male succession. That would have meant the monarchy passing to her uncle, Knud.
But popular sentiment was behind the bright, young princess. A constitutional referendum was held in 1953 that paved the way for female succession if the royal couple didn’t have any sons. In 2009, the law of succession was changed again to give the first-born the right to the throne, regardless of gender.
In the period 1960-1965, Crown Princess Margrethe studied at the University of Copenhagen, the University of Cambridge, the London School of Economics and the Sorbonne, completing courses in archaeology and political science.
Margrethe has said that if she hadn’t been a monarch she would have been torn between becoming an archaeologist or an artist.
“I’m fortunate that I never had to face that dilemma because I knew what my task was, but then found out that I could still pursue the arts and also, to some extent, archaeology,” the queen said in the 2011 interview book M, by author Jens Andersen.
In 1967, she married Henri Marie Jean Andre, a French count who had grown up in Vietnam. He took the Danish name Prince Consort Henrik. They had two sons: Crown Prince Frederik in 1968 and Prince Joachim the year after.
She ascended the throne in 1972 after the death of her father and balanced her work as an artist with her royal duties.
Margrethe faced her biggest public crisis in the last years of her marriage as Henrik repeatedly complained about his role and said he should have been given the title of king.
In 2017, he said he didn’t want to be buried with his wife in the Roskilde Cathedral, as had been planned. Later that year, the royal court issued a statement saying the prince suffered from dementia.
When he died in 2018, at age 83, Henrik was cremated, and a portion of his ashes was placed in the garden of a royal castle near Copenhagen. The other part was spread in Danish waters, in accordance with his wishes.
The move to strip the titles from the children of Margrethe’s younger son followed similar downsizing in other royal houses, such as in Sweden. A week after it was announced, Margrethe apologised to her family but stuck by her decision, saying it was “in keeping with the times” and necessary to “future-proof” the institution, according to the royal court.
“I have made my decision as Queen, mother and grandmother, but, as a mother and grandmother, I have underestimated the extent to which much my younger son and his family feel affected,” she said in a written statement at the time. “That makes a big impression, and for that I am sorry.”

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.
U.S. & World
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.

Gov’t mulls over raising efficiency of social well-being measures
The meeting discussed issues of improving the effectiveness of measures being taken to ensure social well-being and the development of additional mechanisms to support the most socially vulnerable groups, where the special focus will be on families with many children. The attendees considered specific proposals submitted by the public during household visits and meetings with large families in the regions of the country.
Yerbolat Dossaev pointed out that raising the well-being and improving the quality of life of Kazakhstanis is the top priority of the Government's work determined by President Nursultan Nazarbayev in the State-of-the-Nation Address dated October 5, 2018. In this regard, the tasks of ensuring citizens' income growth and better quality of life are the focal point of the work being done by the central and local executive bodies.
The meeting specified the main areas of work: facilitating access to targeted social assistance, including by simplifying bureaucratic procedures; improvement of the mechanism of payment of allowances for large families in need of government support; the local executive bodies will consider the matter on expanding the coverage of large families' children to be provided with free hot meal at elementary schools, public transport travel, etc.; the possibility of increasing accessibility to municipal rental housing for particularly needy large families will also be considered.
In attendance were representatives of the Nur Otan Party, deputies of the Majilis of the Parliament of Kazakhstan, the heads of the ministries of the socio-economic bloc, infrastructure development, and internal affairs, representatives of the expert community and NGOs. Also, local executive bodies participated in the meeting by teleconferencing.
Minister of Labor and Social Protection of the Population Madina Abylkassymova reported that operational headquarters have been established in all regions of the country. The ministry meets with the population and initiative groups and checks the living conditions of families with children.

PGA Tour seeks extension on commercial deal with Saudis, private investors
(AP) - The PGA Tour believes it has made enough progress with the Saudi backers of LIV Golf to extend their negotiations into next year for a new commercial deal that would include a U.S. investment group and the European tour.
Commissioner Jay Monahan sent a memo to players on Sunday afternoon, just seven hours before the deadline to finalize the deal that was set in the June 6 framework agreement.
The PGA Tour board unanimously agreed three weeks ago to negotiate exclusively with Strategic Sports Group, a consortium of American-based professional sports teams owners led by Fenway Sports Group.
Monahan said the tour has made “meaningful progress” with SSG and provided the group with all the information it requested.
“As we move forward in our discussions, we are focused on the finalization of terms and drafts of necessary documents,” Monahan said.
Far more complicated are the negotiations with Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund, the financial supporters of the rival LIV Golf League which lured away Dustin Johnson and Brooks Koepka in 2022, and most recently Masters champion Jon Rahm earlier this month.
Monahan described conversations with PIF and the European tour as “active and productive.”
The framework agreement was to expire Dec. 31, though it included language that the deadline could be extended if all parties agreed. “We are working to extend our negotiations into next year based on the progress we have made to date,” Monahan said in his memo.
Monahan said the goal for 2024 was to reach agreements with SSG, PIF and the European tour to bring them in as minority co-investors in the for-profit PGA Tour Enterprises.
“These partnerships will allow us to unify, innovate and invest in the game for the benefit of players, fans and sponsors,” Monahan said.
Under the framework agreement, PIF Governor Yasir Al-Rumayyan would have a seat on the PGA Tour board. The agreement also included PGA Tour Enterprises doing an “objective, empirical-driven evaluation” of LIV and to determine if team golf can be integrated into the PGA Tour and European tour.
It also was to determine a “fair and objective” process for LIV players who might want to return to the PGA Tour or European tour, which is said to be a sticking point because of the players who turned down Saudi riches to remain on the PGA Tour.
The PGA Tour season begins Thursday at The Sentry on Maui, the first of eight “signature” events with a $20 million purse and limited field. LIV Golf already has announced the bulk of its 2024 schedule and $20 million purses. It starts the first week of February.

After lithium-ion batteries burned in a large cargo ship's hold for a number of days, the U.S. Coast Guard said late Saturday that the fire was out and directed the ship to anchor near Dutch Harbor, Alaska.
The 19 crew members of the ship, Genius Star XI, were uninjured and technicians from the Salvage and Marine Firefighting team remain onboard to ensure the fire doesn't return, according to a Coast Guard press release.
“This protected anchorage ... will allow the vessel to remain stable, minimizing risk of any re-flash of the fire as we continue our response," Capt. Chris Culpepper said in the press release, which said an investigation into the fire's origins will begin once response efforts wrap up.
Genius Star XI was shipping lithium-ion batteries from Vietnam to San Diego. The crew alerted the Coast Guard early Thursday morning to the fire, after pumping carbon dioxide into hold No. 1 — where the blaze began — and sealing it, fearing an explosion.

The Coast Guard diverted the 410-foot (125-meter) cargo ship to Dutch Harbor, one of the nation’s busiest fishing ports located in Unalaska, an Aleutian Islands community about 800 miles (1,287 kilometers) southwest of Anchorage.
Arriving Friday, Genius Star XI was kept 2 miles (3.2 kilometers) from shore to mitigate the risks of toxic gases produced by the fire to the community and environment while responders worked to extinguish the flames, Coast Guard Lt. Cmdr. Mike Salerno said in an email to The Associated Press.
There have been no oil leaks associated with the fire, according to the ship's owners, Wisdom Marine Group.

Mockery in Barranquilla after the former player's controversy with coach Arturo Reyes.
Find the validation of El Cazamentiras at the end of the news.
Junior from Barranquilla was the champion of the second Colombian soccer tournament of the year, under the guidance of Arturo Reyes, in a definition in the shots from the penalty spot against Medellín. Barranquilla does not stop celebrating.
As a result of the title, a controversy arose after an argument between former soccer player Faustino Asprilla and coach Reyes, on an ESPN program.
The former Tulueño player vehemently pointed out that the Colombian tournament rewards mediocrity and the coach immediately jumped.
“If they had held the tournament here like it is in Brazil, the one who scores the most points is the one who wins. Enjoy the title, very nice and all, but the tournament is very poorly designed. If the tournament were like the Brazilian championship, then it would mean that the best teams would fight for the title, even historic teams like Vasco and Santos are risking relegation, because there they don't reward mediocrity, here they do reward it. What do we do if the championship is like this?” said Tino Asprilla.
But Arturo Reyes, even more upset, sentenced with a phrase that has gone viral: “Go and file a complaint with the CAI.”
Well, the phrase made a splash, it went viral, to the point that the coastal fans, showing off their particular creativity, remembered Tino this New Year's Eve with a New Year's doll in which the figure of Tino appears in a CAI.
Thus, the fans laugh at the controversy that was generated by the exchange of words between the coach and the former soccer player.

From a small town girl in Meerut to an actor in Mumbai, Archana Gautam has come a long way. But her journey has had its share of ups and downs. However, as the year comes to a draw, Archana is happy to have fulfilling her dream of owning a home in Mumbai. She recently bought a 3-BHK flat in the city and will soon be shifting into her house with her family.
Confirming the news, Archana shares, “It was a long-cherished dream to have a house of my own. With God’s grace, I have made it possible. My family in Meerut still lives in a rented house. My parents are excited and proud of me for making this dream a reality and that too in a city like Mumbai. It’s not only my first home but our first family home. And I just cannot wait to shift into our new house as soon as possible.”
Gautam has done modelling and also made cameo appearances in films like Great Grand Masti, Haseena Parker and Baaraat Company. She came into limelight when she participated in reality show Bigg Boss season 16 and Fear Factor: Khatron Ke Khiladi season 13. Gautam further adds that when she came to Mumbai she could not even think of this. “To have your own house in Mumbai is a big deal especially when you come from a humble background. Thanks to my mother who supported my choices and encouraged me to chase my dreams, I am here today," says Archana, who became a household name after her stint on Bigg Boss.

US Navy helicopters fire at Yemen’s Houthi rebels and kill several in latest Red Sea shipping attack
BEIRUT (AP) — The U.S. military said Sunday that its forces opened fire on Houthi rebels after they attacked a cargo ship in the Red Sea, killing several of them in an escalation of the maritime conflict linked to the war in Gaza. “We’re going to act in a self-defense going forward,” a White House official said.
In a series of statements, the U.S. Central Command said the crew of the USS Gravely destroyer first shot down two anti-ship ballistic missiles fired at the Singapore-flagged Maersk Hangzhou late Saturday, after the vessel reported getting hit by a missile earlier that evening as it sailed through the Southern Red Sea.
Four small boats then attacked the same cargo ship with small arms fire early Sunday and rebels tried to board the vessel, the U.S. Navy said.
Next, the USS Gravely and helicopters from the USS Dwight D. Eisenhower aircraft carrier responded to the Maersk Hangzhou’s distress call and issued verbal warnings to the attackers, who responded by firing on the helicopters.
“The U.S. Navy helicopters returned fire in self-defense,” sinking three of the four boats and killing the people on board while the fourth boat fled the area, the U.S. Central Command said. No harm to U.S. personnel or equipment, or casualties from the cargo ship, were reported.
The Houthis acknowledged that 10 of their fighters were killed in the confrontation and warned of consequences.
In Washington, a spokesman for the White House National Security Council sidestepped a question about the possibility of a preemptive strike against the Houthis to safeguard commercial shipping in the vital waterway.
“I won’t say what’s on or off the table right now,” John Kirby told ABC’s “Good Morning America,” adding, “We’re going to do what we have to do to protect shipping.” He said the United States has “significant national security interests in the region” and “we’re going to put the kind of forces we need in the region to protect those interests and we’re going to act in self-defense going forward.”
He said the U.S. has made it clear to the Houthis that “we take these threats seriously and we’re going to make the right decisions going forward.″
The events surrounding the Maersk Hangzhou represented the 23rd illegal attack by the Houthis on international shipping since Nov. 19, the Central Command said. It was the first time the U.S. Navy said its personnel had killed Houthi fighters since the Red Sea attacks started.
For over a month, Iran-backed Houthis have claimed attacks on ships in the Red Sea that they say are either linked to Israel or heading to Israeli ports. They say their attacks aim to end the Israeli air-and-ground offensive in the Gaza Strip that was triggered by the Palestinian militant group Hamas’ Oct.7 attack in southern Israel.
However, the links to the ships targeted in the rebel assaults have grown more tenuous as the attacks continue.
The chairman of the House Intelligence Committee called on President Joe Biden “to look at what actions need to be taken in Yemen to be able to prevent the Houthis to continue to put commercial and military vessels at risk.”
Noting Iran’s support for Hamas, Hezbollah and the Houthis, Rep. Mike Turner, R-Ohio, told ABC’s ``This Week” that the Biden administration should be more aggressive “in responding to escalation by Iran.’’
The Denmark-based shipping giant Maersk, owner of Maersk Hangzhou, said Sunday it would suspend shipping through the Red Sea again after the two attacks on its freighter.
“In light of the (most recent) incident — and to give time to investigate the details of the incident and assess the security situation further — it has been decided that all transits through the area will be postponed for the next 48 hours,” Maersk was quoted as saying by the Danish public broadcaster DR.
On Saturday, the top commander of U.S. naval forces in the Middle East said Houthi rebels have shown no signs of ending their “reckless” attacks on commercial ships in the Red Sea even as more nations join the international maritime mission to protect vessels in the vital waterway and trade traffic begins to pick up.
Earlier this month, Washington announced the establishment of a new international coalition to protect vessels traveling through the waterway. The United Kingdom, Bahrain, Canada, France, Italy, the Netherlands, Norway, Seychelles and Spain are also part of the new maritime security mission.
Since the Pentagon announced Operation Prosperity Guardian to counter the attacks just over 10 days ago, 1,200 merchant ships have traveled through the Red Sea region, and none had been hit by drone or missile strikes, Vice Adm. Brad Cooper told The Associated Press in an interview on Saturday.

We firmly believe that the internet should be available and accessible to anyone, and are committed to providing a website that is accessible to the widest possible audience, regardless of circumstance and ability.
To fulfill this, we aim to adhere as strictly as possible to the World Wide Web Consortium’s (W3C) Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.1 (WCAG 2.1) at the AA level. These guidelines explain how to make web content accessible to people with a wide array of disabilities. Complying with those guidelines helps us ensure that the website is accessible to all people: blind people, people with motor impairments, visual impairment, cognitive disabilities, and more.
This website utilizes various technologies that are meant to make it as accessible as possible at all times. We utilize an accessibility interface that allows persons with specific disabilities to adjust the website’s UI (user interface) and design it to their personal needs.
Additionally, the website utilizes an AI-based application that runs in the background and optimizes its accessibility level constantly. This application remediates the website’s HTML, adapts Its functionality and behavior for screen-readers used by the blind users, and for keyboard functions used by individuals with motor impairments.
If you’ve found a malfunction or have ideas for improvement, we’ll be happy to hear from you. You can reach out to the website’s operators by using the following email
Our website implements the ARIA attributes (Accessible Rich Internet Applications) technique, alongside various different behavioral changes, to ensure blind users visiting with screen-readers are able to read, comprehend, and enjoy the website’s functions. As soon as a user with a screen-reader enters your site, they immediately receive a prompt to enter the Screen-Reader Profile so they can browse and operate your site effectively. Here’s how our website covers some of the most important screen-reader requirements, alongside console screenshots of code examples:
Screen-reader optimization: we run a background process that learns the website’s components from top to bottom, to ensure ongoing compliance even when updating the website. In this process, we provide screen-readers with meaningful data using the ARIA set of attributes. For example, we provide accurate form labels; descriptions for actionable icons (social media icons, search icons, cart icons, etc.); validation guidance for form inputs; element roles such as buttons, menus, modal dialogues (popups), and others. Additionally, the background process scans all of the website’s images and provides an accurate and meaningful image-object-recognition-based description as an ALT (alternate text) tag for images that are not described. It will also extract texts that are embedded within the image, using an OCR (optical character recognition) technology. To turn on screen-reader adjustments at any time, users need only to press the Alt+1 keyboard combination. Screen-reader users also get automatic announcements to turn the Screen-reader mode on as soon as they enter the website.
These adjustments are compatible with all popular screen readers, including JAWS and NVDA.
Keyboard navigation optimization: The background process also adjusts the website’s HTML, and adds various behaviors using JavaScript code to make the website operable by the keyboard. This includes the ability to navigate the website using the Tab and Shift+Tab keys, operate dropdowns with the arrow keys, close them with Esc, trigger buttons and links using the Enter key, navigate between radio and checkbox elements using the arrow keys, and fill them in with the Spacebar or Enter key.Additionally, keyboard users will find quick-navigation and content-skip menus, available at any time by clicking Alt+1, or as the first elements of the site while navigating with the keyboard. The background process also handles triggered popups by moving the keyboard focus towards them as soon as they appear, and not allow the focus drift outside of it.
Users can also use shortcuts such as “M” (menus), “H” (headings), “F” (forms), “B” (buttons), and “G” (graphics) to jump to specific elements.
We aim to support the widest array of browsers and assistive technologies as possible, so our users can choose the best fitting tools for them, with as few limitations as possible. Therefore, we have worked very hard to be able to support all major systems that comprise over 95% of the user market share including Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Apple Safari, Opera and Microsoft Edge, JAWS and NVDA (screen readers), both for Windows and for MAC users.
Despite our very best efforts to allow anybody to adjust the website to their needs, there may still be pages or sections that are not fully accessible, are in the process of becoming accessible, or are lacking an adequate technological solution to make them accessible. Still, we are continually improving our accessibility, adding, updating and improving its options and features, and developing and adopting new technologies. All this is meant to reach the optimal level of accessibility, following technological advancements. For any assistance, please reach out to

Russia already has its own scandal involving celebrities at a party.
What happened in a Moscow nightclub this month was strange. But what happened next says a lot about the current atmosphere in Russia.
On December 20, blogger and TV presenter Nastya Ivleeva hosted a party. So far everything is normal.
But the theme that night at the Mutabor nightclub in the Russian capital was “Almost Naked Party.” The participants had to appear almost without clothes.
You could say that the dress code for that night was quite the opposite: there was none. The fewer clothes, the better.
Celebrities and pop stars attended the evening. Russian rapper Vacio, whose real name is Nikolai Vasiliev, appeared wearing only sneakers and a strategically placed sock.
It was a private party. But it became public knowledge when videos and photos appeared on social media.
From overnight, the garment that covered Vacio became the most famous sock in Russia. And not in a good way.
The scandal broke out. Bloggers, parliamentarians and pro-Kremlin activists who support the war in Ukraine were furious: how could celebrities party like this while Russian soldiers risked their lives in the “special military operation”?
It was a bitter end to the party for many of those attending.
Rapper Vacio was arrested and jailed for 15 days for “disturbing public order”. It was also fined 200,000 rubles (about US$2,200) for “promoting non-traditional sexual relations.”
“Almost Naked Party” organizer Nastya Ivleeva faces legal action.
More than 20 people have signed a class-action lawsuit.
They demand that pay 1 billion rubles (almost US$11 million) to the Defender of the Fatherland Foundation, an organization that donates money to soldiers involved in the Kremlin's “special operation” in Ukraine.
Other partygoers have also encountered trouble in the music industry.
It talks about cancellation of concert dates and termination of advertising contracts.
Local press also reported that some of the stars are being eliminated from the pre-recorded entertainment programs that Russian television had prepared for New Year's Eve.
Suddenly canceled
One by one, the party's notable guests took to social media: some to apologize for their attendance, others to insist that they have done nothing wrong.
“I admit that I made a mistake,” declared megastar Philipp Kirkorovalready fully dressed.
“The last thing I want is for such a mistake to result in restrictions on my career in Russia, the only country in which I exist as an artist and as a citizen.”
“He was wearing a turtleneck, a big trench coat, pants and shoes,” said pop star Dima Bilan.
“I couldn't know in advance what the other guests would be wearing.”
“They say that Russia knows how to forgive. If so, I would like to ask you, the people, for a second chance.“said Nastya Ivleeva in her video message.
“If the answer is no, then I am ready for my public execution. I will not shy away. I am ready for any outcome.”
The events of recent days will have surprised these celebrities.
Following the Kremlin's full-scale invasion of Ukraine, they made a conscious decision to remain in Russia and continue their careers, and often their lavish lifestyles, in the country.
Public criticism was reserved for those pacifist celebrities who had left Russia.
That ended. But why?
It seems to me that the Russian political system is increasingly dependent on scapegoats. You need groups or individuals whom you can point the finger at and blame for internal and external problems.
Until now, those scapegoats included Ukraine, the United States, the United Kingdom, the EU and NATO.
And everything indicates that now Some Russian celebrities have joined that list.
Maxim Katz, an exiled Russian opposition activist, summed up events in a social media post: “In the past, people who attended parties like this had a simple social contract: do what you want as long as you are loyal.”
“But now life is not a party. These ostentatious displays contrast with the outside reality. You cannot celebrate lightly in a country that is at war”.
“For the first time in a long time, the system punished those who supported all of its rules, as long as they did not apply to them.”

DENVER (KDVR) — A Colorado woman accused of killing two of her children was arrested in the United Kingdom on Saturday, according to police.
Kimberlee Singler, 35, is suspected of killing her 9-year-old daughter and 7-year-old son and trying to kill her 11-year-old daughter in Colorado Springs.
On Tuesday, Dec. 19, police said they responded to a 911 call reporting a burglary at an apartment complex around 12:30 a.m. and found the the bodies of the two dead children.
Officers also located Singler and her 11-year-old daughter at the scene. They were both injured and taken to hospitals for treatment, according to Colorado Springs Police Department spokesperson Ira Cronin.
Singler’s injuries were minor. The 11-year-old girl was hospitalized for a few days and then released. She is recovering well physically in Colorado Springs. Cronin said he could not release details about how the children or Singler were injured.
Police said the initial report of a burglary was unfounded.
Singler was initially cooperative with police investigating the homicides and alleged burglary. She went missing after the probe, according to authorities.
“In the initial stages of the investigation, we were treating her as a victim of a burglary,” Cronin told the Associated Press.
On Tuesday, Dec. 26, investigators obtained an arrest warrant for Singler on several charges, including multiple counts of first-degree murder, child abuse, and assault.
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. Court hearings had been scheduled for next month.
The Associated Press contributed to this report.

There is no love lost between the Chiefs and the Bengals. And no one is better at getting the two sides amped up than Cincinnati receiver Ja'Marr Chase.
Chase had plenty to say before the Bengals played Kansas City in Week 17. But after he was held to three catches for 41 yards in a 25-17 loss, it was the Chiefs that were able to have the last laugh over the star Cincinnati wide receiver.
Defensive tackle Chris Jones didn't even make it off the turf at GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium before he let Chase have it.
"Ja'Marr Chase, err, try again," Jones said.
"Ja'Marr Chase, errrr, try again"

There was some uncertainty as to whether Chase, who missed Week 16 with a shoulder injury, would wind up playing. He was questionable until Sunday morning, when it was confirmed he would play against Kansas City.
That still didn't stop him from stirring things up during the week. Asked about what stands out about the Chiefs defense, Chase said there wasn't much.
"I'll be honest, nothing," Chase said. "They just know how to play us, know the leverages, know what splits we in, they know what we going to do in certain movements. They throw a little double, doubles at us to stop the two best players on the outside. That's all they do. I mean it's not really like they've got a Jalen Ramsey on their squad."
And early in the second quarter, he and Chiefs top corner L'Jarius Sneed got into a scuffle with Chase and safety Mike Edwards ultimately wound up drawing unnecessary roughness penalties.

After the game, Chase said he didn't know what Sneed was doing, but explained he knew he gets "under people's skin."
"M-fer won't fight me, so it's alright," Chase said. Asked why they had an altercation, he added, "Just trash talking. Can't handle it."

Sneed said after the game, he and Chase exchanged words, with the corner telling his counterpart he had a good game, but adding an extra jab.
"Check the stats," Sneed said.
The stats show just how dominant of a game Sneed had in covering Chase, who later said he was feeling 70 percent healthy due to his shoulder injury. Per NFL Next Gen Stats, Sneed was covering Chase on 21 of 34 routes and he allowed only two catches for 27 yards on three targets. Overall, Chase was registered as having tallied six fewer yards than expected, the first time in five games he had fewer receiving yards than expected. In four previous games against Kansas City, Chase had 30 catches for 492 yards and four touchdowns, averaging 123 yards per game.
Chiefs corner Jaylen Watson evidently saw the stats before taking to X (formerly Twitter) to call out Chase for his comments.
40 yards is crazy to talk so much. Sneed’s top 3 and not 3
— Wat’s Island🏝 (@JaylenWatson12) January 1, 2024
Jones felt it was best to just let everything play out on the field. Rather than talk before the game, he was ready to let the Chiefs' play speak for itself.
"We don't comment. We just play, man. We don't really talk," Jones said. "We don't engage with the back-and-forth. They do this every year."

ANTIOCH, Calif. (KGO) -- Five people were injured when officers say they tried to break up a sideshow in Antioch, and a driver sped away.
That car crashed into a concrete wall under Highway 4 in Pittsburg.
Officers say other people who were likely taking part in the sideshow showed up at the crash scene.
INTERACTIVE: Take a look at the ABC7 Neighborhood Safety Tracker
"Apparently additional sideshow vehicles in the area responded to this area as well and verbally yelling at our officers, and unknown objects were being thrown at our officers here on scene, and it became a little more hostile at that point," said Sgt. Nelson Fulgencio with the California Highway Patrol.
The CHP called for backup and officers from other agencies helped gain control of the scene.

Guadalajara's big bomb for Clausura 2023 was Victor Guzmanwho was wanted to be repatriated since he began to experience long passages with the Pachuca. In his first game as a starter, the midfielder scored so that Chivas won 1-2 Braves of Juarez on the border. That would be just the great beginning of Pocho with the Flock in said semester.
The Serbian's hand began to be seen very quickly, since with his help Guadalajara was able to have its best start since the 2011 Apertura. After its first official games, the red and white team added 15 points, improving what it had done in the last ten years.
The harvest was four cattle on Striped, Braves, Cougars and Xolosthree draws and one defeat, with ten goals for and seven against.
After a painful defeat in the National Classic in view of Americathe footballers showed their love for the shield by tying 3-3 on Classic Tapatío against Atlas in it Jalisco Stadium and later, close the regular phase with four wins.

Although it faded as the tournament progressed, in part because Paunovic He went back to betting on the usual ones, Alexis Vega and company, at the time the youth player generated excitement in the Chiva-brothers and the media.
The attacker debuted when he was 17 years old and in the first two games of his career in the First Division he managed to score, against Lion and Atlético San Luis. It's a shame that he stopped adding minutes due to the 'weight' of other players.
As is customary, Chivas had a weak transfer market at the beginning of the year by hiring only the Pocho Guzman and Daniel Riosthe latter, without having weight as '9'.
For Apertura 2023, the bets were Erick Gutierrezfrom the PSV Eindhoven of the Netherlands, and Ricardo Marinof the Bulls of the Celaya of the Expansion League.
The reality is that the first, despite arriving as a 'bombshell signing', never really weighed down, even before his arrival the fans were debating that he returned to Mexico due to failing in Europe, where he failed to take off to go to a better league. In the case of Marinhad a lot of participation in the goals except for not scoring them, which was at least applauded.
During the month of July, Chivas He faced his second game against the Spanish team, taking the Gernika Tree Trophy by winning from eleven steps.
First, the Guadalajara team defeated on the field 2-0 with goals from Pavel Perez and Yael Padilla, and later, on penalties, win 4-2. The Lions had won the first game in December 2022 by 2-0.
Once again, the Flock had just been shown 4-0 in the National Classichence Atlas He paid dearly when he was crushed 4-1 at Akron.
Fernando Beltran opened the account and although Aldo Rocha tied the situation, then came a double from Ricardo Marin and a target Louse Alvarado to close the victory.
After classifying the two Leagues of the year, at the end, Veljko Paunovic He said goodbye to the Sacred Flock, due to alleged conflicts with the board.
In the end, Chivas He moved quickly and found in the Argentine Fernando Gago to the new shepherd who will try to return the team to the top, although of course, it will not be easy, since so far, Guadalajara has not presented reinforcements, only casualties.
Despite everything, there is hope thanks to the fact that Pintita remembers the way in which her compatriot arrived Matias Almeydawithout prior knowledge of the Liga MX and yet, he left a legacy in Verde Valle.

(NEXSTAR) — Select batches of a baby formula product have been recalled due to concerns about possible bacterial contamination, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) announced.
The recall affects 12.6-ounce and 19.8-ounce cans of Nutramigen Powder, produced by Reckitt Benckiser’s Mead Johnson Nutrition (MJN) and distributed to U.S. retailers over the summer. Nutramigen Powder is a specialty formula designed for infants allergic to cow’s milk.
The company said it issued the recall due to the possibility of Cronobacter sakazakii contamination in products sampled outside the U.S.
“All products in question went through extensive testing by MJN and tested negative for the bacteria,” MJN said in its press release.
Cronobacter is a germ that can cause a dangerous blood infection known as sepsis, and it can also “make the linings surrounding the brain and spinal cord swell,” according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Infants younger than two months old, born prematurely or with weakened immune systems are most likely to get sick from the bacteria.
No illnesses have been reported to date, and MJN said it believes most of the products have already been consumed.
The affected products are listed below. They have a “Use By Date” of “1 Jan 2025” and a UPC Code of either 300871239418 or 300871239456:
- ZL3FHG (12.6 oz cans)
- ZL3FMH (12.6 oz cans)
- ZL3FPE (12.6 oz cans)
- ZL3FQD (12.6 oz cans)
- ZL3FRW (19.8 oz cans)
- ZL3FXJ (12.6 oz cans)
Consumers who purchased the affected products should throw them away or contact MJN for a refund. Anyone with questions can call 866-534-9986 or email consumer.relations@rb.com for assistance.

Just a few hours before 2023 officially ended, the NFL provided fans with one of the calendar year's best moments.
Ahead of the Vikings vs. Packers game on "Sunday Night Football," Kirk Cousins led the Minnesota crowd in the ritualistic pregame "Skol" chant.
Cousins led the crowd in the chant as his "Kirko Chainz" alter ego. Translation: he performed the act while shirtless and wearing a thick, gold-colored chain, as captured by the NBC broadcast.
Shirtless Kirk Cousins leads the #SKOL chant in Minnesota 😭
— NFL (@NFL) January 1, 2024
📺: #GBvsMIN on NBC
📱: Stream on #NFLPlus https://t.co/cOt1Gy93Av pic.twitter.com/keO8s6maVq
The NBC announcers were amused by the display. Play-by-play man Mike Tirico reference the quarterback's notable catchphrase while asking Cris Collinsworth about the sequence.
"You like that?" Tirico said with a smirk.
Naturally, the Vikings fans did, in fact, "like that." They were fired up seeing Cousins — and his young son — get them amped up for the game, the team's eighth since the quarterback suffered a season-ending injury.

Why isn't Kirk Cousins playing in Week 17?
For those wondering why Cousins isn't on the field for the Vikings, it's because of his injury. The 35-year-old suffered a season-ending torn Achilles in the Vikings' Week 8 win over the Packers.
Cousins had been enjoying one of his best-ever seasons before being hurt against Green Bay. He completed 69.5 percent of his passes for 2,331 yards, 18 touchdowns and five interceptions and was in the process of leading Minnesota back from a 0-3 start to level at 4-4.
Unfortunately, the Achilles tear brought his season to a halt. And since he departed from the lineup, the Vikings have cycled through three more starting quarterbacks.
Jaren Hall was given the first crack at replacing Cousins, but he suffered a concussion just one quarter into his debut. Trade acquisition Josh Dobbs replaced him and led the Vikings to a couple of wins before fizzling out. Veteran Nick Mullens then got a chance to replace Dobbs but struggled with turnovers before being benched in favor of Hall.
The Vikings clearly miss Cousins on the field. Their passers have combined to complete 65.8 percent of their passes for 1,793 yards, nine touchdowns and 11 interceptions in Cousins' stead.
Perhaps Cousins' presence and energy in leading the Skol chant will help energize Hall in a do-or-die game against the Packers in Week 17.
But as it stands, the Vikings are facing an uphill battle as they look to claw their way back into the wild-card race.

What is the Vikings 'Skol' chant?
The Vikings' "Skol" chant is derived from the Swedish/Danish/Norweigen word "skål." Originally, a "skål" reference a bowl that fits beverages that are shared between people. However, it also evolved to essentially mean "cheers" and it is now used as a celebratory cheer when the Vikings score and before games.
The Vikings first introduced "Skol" to NFL fans after the team's introduction in 1961. It was a part of the team's fight song but has since evolved to be a larger part of the team's traditions.
Upon Minnesota's move to U.S. Bank Stadium in 2016, the Vikings introduced the "war horn" which is blown by a guest before the game. That is then followed by the "Skol" chant to set the stage for the team's homefield advantage. The chant has continued to be a part of the team's touchdown celebration as well.

Actress Gouri Tonnk, who is currently seen as Jasleen in the show ‘Teri Meri Doriyaann’ is looking forward to enjoying a
happy, prosperous New Year, with no regrets, and said the year 2024 will all about taking care of herself.
The actress known for shows like ‘Kahin Kisi Roz’, ‘Shakti-Astitva Ke Ehsaas Ki’, ‘Kaamnaa’, said: "We all have something stored in our memory banks of the past that we wish we could have done differently, or something we wish we didn’t do.
As we get older we learn and grow, but that doesn’t mean we have to regret what we did before we learned how to do things differently. If we didn’t go through those experiences, we might not have grown into the strong and knowledgeable people we are today."
She continued, "What I’m proposing is that we get rid of the negative thoughts, the could haves, might haves, and should haves and start living a life that won’t make us feel regretful. Not even at an older, wiser age."
Sharing her new year plans, Gouri revealed: "I will ring in my new years with my family, friends. The year 2024, will also be about taking care of myself. As while trying to be a perfect homemaker, a perfect wife, a perfect mother and taking care of all other responsibilities. I guess at times we miss taking care of ourselves, our health so I want to be more responsible towards myself too."
The actress is up to accept new challenges in 2024.
She shared, "On the professional front I'm looking to enjoy new challenges, new opportunities. I would definitely open myself to reality TV shows. After being part of ‘Nach Baliye 2’, I would like to explore ‘Bigg Boss’, ‘Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa’ or ‘Fear Factor: Khatron Ke Khiladi’. Though I'm not planning much as of now, but just looking to explore something new for a change."

Signing very young talents, even before they come of age, is becoming an increasingly common signing route within the best teams on the planet. Barcelona has set the perfect example this winter, after having agreed to the arrival of Vitor Roque in the summer market, now that the team has room to register him, they add him to the squad as a reinforcement from whom much is expected in the long term.
For more news about FC Barcelona
Just like the culés, other giants follow the path of aspiring to the most important talents on the planet, such is the case of Real Madrid with Endrick, Manchester City with Echeverrí and even the Blaugrana team itself could repeat the dose from the transfer market. Brazil with the new pearl of Palmeiras, 'messinho', who, although it is a complex signing due to the club's financial present, the footballer's desire to dress as a culé puts him one step closer to Xavi's team.
André Cury, the player's representative, who is also Vitor Roque's agent, would have had a talk with the Barcelona board to ensure that despite having offers from other more powerful teams such as PSG, the player's idea is to leave Brazil to arrive at the culé team yes or yes, this being the case, Cury would have agreed with the Blaugrana to negotiate with Palmeiras an affordable payment model for the institution's economy as long as Laporte ensures a place in the squad for Estevao William once he reaches adulthood.

SAN FRANCISCO (KRON/WKRN) — Chances are, you associated New York City with New Year’s Eve, largely thanks to its iconic ball drop. However, according to a new survey, the Big Apple isn’t the prime spot to ring in 2024.
A study published by personal finance company WalletHub, recently reviewed the nation’s 100 most-populated cities based on multiple metrics, including entertainment and food options, costs, and safety and accessibility to find the top spot to celebrate the new year.
New York City was ranked third overall, thanks in part to its high entertainment and food rank of sixth. However, that wasn’t enough to propel it past Orlando, Florida, and San Diego, California, which ranked first and second, respectively.
Orlando had the best entertainment and food options, as well as “some of the longest fireworks displays in the country,” according to WalletHub.
Two Florida cities ranked in the top 10, as did two California cities. These are the best cities in the U.S. to ring in 2024, WalletHub found:
- Orlando, Florida
- San Diego, California
- New York, New York
- Las Vegas, Nevada
- Atlanta, Georgia
- Miami, Florida
- Los Angeles, California
- Chicago, Illinois
- Denver, Colorado
- Washington, D.C.
Orlando scored top marks based on its nightlife options, fireworks and affordable restaurants, among other things. San Diego emerged as the top NYE destination on West Coast due to its mild weather, great restaurant choices and high Google search frequency for terms like “New Year’s Eve party” and “New Year’s Eve dinner.”
Four cities in Tennessee and Kentucky made the list, with two in the top 20 and two much farther down the list. Louisville was ranked 12th, Nashville was ranked 18th, Lexington-Fayette was ranked 64th, and Memphis was ranked 75th.
There are, of course, some less ideal cities to celebrate New Year’s Eve in, WalletHub found.
At the bottom of the survey’s list was North Las Vegas, which had among the lowest scores when it came to food and entertainment, as well as costs. Rounding out the bottom five on WalletHub’s list were Hialeah, Florida; Fremont, California; Chula Vista, California; and Laredo, Texas.
Fremont had the lowest food and entertainment score while Hialeah had the lowest cost score. St. Louis, Missouri, ranked as the lowest when it comes to safety and accessibility.
Multiple states had no cities on WalletHub’s list, including North Dakota, South Dakota, Montana, Wyoming, Utah, Iowa, Arkansas, South Carolina, West Virginia, Delaware, Connecticut, Rhode Island, Vermont, New Hampshire, and Maine.

We firmly believe that the internet should be available and accessible to anyone, and are committed to providing a website that is accessible to the widest possible audience, regardless of circumstance and ability.
To fulfill this, we aim to adhere as strictly as possible to the World Wide Web Consortium’s (W3C) Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.1 (WCAG 2.1) at the AA level. These guidelines explain how to make web content accessible to people with a wide array of disabilities. Complying with those guidelines helps us ensure that the website is accessible to all people: blind people, people with motor impairments, visual impairment, cognitive disabilities, and more.
This website utilizes various technologies that are meant to make it as accessible as possible at all times. We utilize an accessibility interface that allows persons with specific disabilities to adjust the website’s UI (user interface) and design it to their personal needs.
Additionally, the website utilizes an AI-based application that runs in the background and optimizes its accessibility level constantly. This application remediates the website’s HTML, adapts Its functionality and behavior for screen-readers used by the blind users, and for keyboard functions used by individuals with motor impairments.
If you’ve found a malfunction or have ideas for improvement, we’ll be happy to hear from you. You can reach out to the website’s operators by using the following email
Our website implements the ARIA attributes (Accessible Rich Internet Applications) technique, alongside various different behavioral changes, to ensure blind users visiting with screen-readers are able to read, comprehend, and enjoy the website’s functions. As soon as a user with a screen-reader enters your site, they immediately receive a prompt to enter the Screen-Reader Profile so they can browse and operate your site effectively. Here’s how our website covers some of the most important screen-reader requirements, alongside console screenshots of code examples:
Screen-reader optimization: we run a background process that learns the website’s components from top to bottom, to ensure ongoing compliance even when updating the website. In this process, we provide screen-readers with meaningful data using the ARIA set of attributes. For example, we provide accurate form labels; descriptions for actionable icons (social media icons, search icons, cart icons, etc.); validation guidance for form inputs; element roles such as buttons, menus, modal dialogues (popups), and others. Additionally, the background process scans all of the website’s images and provides an accurate and meaningful image-object-recognition-based description as an ALT (alternate text) tag for images that are not described. It will also extract texts that are embedded within the image, using an OCR (optical character recognition) technology. To turn on screen-reader adjustments at any time, users need only to press the Alt+1 keyboard combination. Screen-reader users also get automatic announcements to turn the Screen-reader mode on as soon as they enter the website.
These adjustments are compatible with all popular screen readers, including JAWS and NVDA.
Keyboard navigation optimization: The background process also adjusts the website’s HTML, and adds various behaviors using JavaScript code to make the website operable by the keyboard. This includes the ability to navigate the website using the Tab and Shift+Tab keys, operate dropdowns with the arrow keys, close them with Esc, trigger buttons and links using the Enter key, navigate between radio and checkbox elements using the arrow keys, and fill them in with the Spacebar or Enter key.Additionally, keyboard users will find quick-navigation and content-skip menus, available at any time by clicking Alt+1, or as the first elements of the site while navigating with the keyboard. The background process also handles triggered popups by moving the keyboard focus towards them as soon as they appear, and not allow the focus drift outside of it.
Users can also use shortcuts such as “M” (menus), “H” (headings), “F” (forms), “B” (buttons), and “G” (graphics) to jump to specific elements.
We aim to support the widest array of browsers and assistive technologies as possible, so our users can choose the best fitting tools for them, with as few limitations as possible. Therefore, we have worked very hard to be able to support all major systems that comprise over 95% of the user market share including Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Apple Safari, Opera and Microsoft Edge, JAWS and NVDA (screen readers), both for Windows and for MAC users.
Despite our very best efforts to allow anybody to adjust the website to their needs, there may still be pages or sections that are not fully accessible, are in the process of becoming accessible, or are lacking an adequate technological solution to make them accessible. Still, we are continually improving our accessibility, adding, updating and improving its options and features, and developing and adopting new technologies. All this is meant to reach the optimal level of accessibility, following technological advancements. For any assistance, please reach out to

In an important twist on the popular show "Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai," the storyline has taken an unexpected turn, capturing the audience's attention once again. The transition from the previous cast to the new one had its challenges, but the latest developments have revived the show's popularity, securing its place in the top five on the TRP charts.
The new leads, Samridhii Shukla and Shehzada Dhami, faced initial difficulties in connecting with the audience.
However, the fresh narrative has brought a surge of interest back to the show. The central plot revolves around the complicated love dynamics between Ruhi, Armaan, and Abhira. Ruhi and Armaan, deeply in love, find themselves compelled to marry other individuals due to circumstances.
Armaan, out of respect for his mentor Akshara's last wish, marries Abhira, pledging to take care of her until she becomes a lawyer. Meanwhile, Ruhi, struggling with her feelings, becomes increasingly jealous witnessing Armaan and Abhira's relationship. Her unrequited love for Armaan leads to her ignoring her husband, Rohit.
The recent developments in the storyline reveal Rohit's hurtful discovery of Ruhi's wavering feelings for Armaan. Feeling betrayed, Rohit's attitude towards Armaan undergoes a drastic change. During a New Year's party, Rohit mysteriously goes missing, prompting accusations against Abhira.
The plot takes an unexpected twist as Rohit is presumed dead by the Poddar family. However, the storyline promises another intriguing turn when Rohit reappears after his brief absence. Sources suggest that Shivam Khajuria's character, Rohit, will play a crucial role in intensifying Ruhi's jealousy as Armaan and Abhira grow closer.
In an unusual move, the show's makers have intentionally put Shivam Khajuria's track on hold as part of the planned storyline. The uncertainty surrounding Rohit's return adds an air of suspense to the narrative, leaving fans eager to witness the unfolding drama.
While reports indicate an uncertain timeline for Shivam Khajuria's character to return, the current cast includes Samridhii Shukla, Shehzada Dhami, Shruti Ulfat, Shruti Rawat, Sandeep Rajora, Preeti Amin, Preeti Puri Choudhary, Sidharth Vasudev, Anita Raj, Saloni Sandhu, Rishabh Jaiswal, Sikandar Kharbanda, Manthan Setia, Sharon Varma, and Pratiksha Honmukhe.
The show's strategic narrative decisions and the introduction of fresh characters have successfully reignited viewer interest, proving that "Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai" continues to evolve and capture the essence of family drama that has made it a household favourite over the years.

North Korean leader Kim Jong-un on Sunday, December 31, threatened the United States and South Korea that his country would not hesitate to deal a crushing blow if they tried to enter into a military confrontation. As reported by the Korean Central News Agency (KCNA), he made the corresponding statement at a New Year's meeting with commanders of the Korean People's Army (KPA).
“Comrade Kim Jong Un said that with the relentless progress of our revolution, the dying machinations of the United States and the Republic of Korea trying to block it will further intensify, stressing that our army must mercilessly thwart the enemies’ provocations,” it said. message.
They added that the DPRK, without the slightest hesitation, will deliver a crushing blow and completely destroy the capitals of its opponents, using its entire arsenal of super-powerful weapons.
Earlier on the same day, Reuters, citing a report following a meeting chaired by the DPRK leader, reported his plans to launch three reconnaissance satellites next year.
Also on Sunday, Kim Jong-un said that he no longer considers the Republic of Korea a suitable partner for negotiations on the unification of the Korean Peninsula. In his opinion, the relationship between North and South is no longer that of fellow tribesmen, it has completely become that of two hostile states at war.
Earlier, on November 11, North Korea's Ministry of Foreign Affairs accused US Secretary of State Antony Blinken of inciting conflict on the Korean Peninsula. As part of a general tour of Asia and the Middle East, Blinken flew to Seoul on November 8 for negotiations with Korean Foreign Minister Park Chin, during which the parties expressed deep concern about military cooperation between the Russian Federation and the DPRK.
On October 12, Deputy Foreign Minister of the Russian Federation Andrei Rudenko said that the situation on the Korean Peninsula worries Russia. According to him, the solution to the Korean nuclear problem is only moving away due to the actions of Washington and its allies.

Cruise ship passengers slammed in top Greek destination for causing ‘chaos’
Tourists have been advised to stay away from Athens in a new ranking that warns visitors where not to travel in 2024.
Faced huge crowds on holiday in 2023? Many of the world’s top destinations are struggling to cope with overtourism.
A list released by the team at Fodor’s highlights several destinations that tourists are advised to avoid in 2024.
It might have some of the world’s most impressive ancient monuments, but Athens is having issues with the huge hordes of tourists visiting the city. Officials at the Acropolis introduced a daily visitor cap to try to control numbers.
According to Fodor’s, many local residents in the Greek capital are fed up with tourist crowds and the number of Airbnb flats in the historic neighbourhood of Plaka.
One of Athens’s prettiest neighbourhoods, the old town is extremely busy during peak season and locals have been forced out by rising rents.
But one tour guide told Fodor’s, the real issue is cruise tourists. Ships disembark thousands of passengers a day in the Greek capital. The majority of these head straight to the city’s key attractions.
Tina Kyriakis, founder of an alternative travel tour company, told Fodor’s: “Cruise ships are causing the biggest crowd problem on the Acropolis.
“We know when there are many in Athens because the situation is just chaotic for the monument on those days.”

She claimed that many cruise tourists only spend their money on the ships and even take tours run by their cruise company.
Tina added: “What will remain to the city is the chaos caused by the visitors and the burden on the sites.”
The best time to visit the Acropolis to avoid cruise tourists is either very early in the morning or late in the afternoon.
Athens isn’t the only Greek destination where cruise ships have proved controversial. Tourists on popular Greek islands have complained that the ships block the view of the sunset.

Drivers In New York State Getting Hit With Massive Charge
2024 is almost here and among the big changes for the New Year, there are some major price increases coming in New York State. For those who drive back and forth on the Thruway, you may want to get an EZ Pass if you don't have one.
New York State typically has some of the highest taxes in the nation and some of the highest fees for things as well. In the new year, the minimum wage will be going up and will most likely have a trickle down impact on the things we buy. Pizza night is pretty expensive and my get worse as 2024 begins.
The tolls in New York on the New York State Thruway will be going up as of the start of 2024. If you don't have an EX Pass, now is the time to consider it. If you don't have an EZ Pass the toll price will go up as much as 75%!
This is happening as the discussion over Chick-fil-A being open on Sunday continues.

In the bustling world of investing, there’s a hidden gem often overlooked by many: under-the-radar dividend stocks. These offbeat opportunities, tucked away from the common market, provide an amazing mix of stable income and room for growth. These income stocks are not as flashy or attention-grabbing as popular tech companies or rapidly growing startups, but they can still provide a stable base for a balanced investment portfolio.
Why are dividend-paying stocks considered so attractive for generating passive income? Their uniqueness comes from their ability to combine dependability with an unexpected potential for growth. Unlike popular stocks, these stocks are not as attention-grabbing and do not experience drastic fluctuations in their value as a result of market attitudes. This stability, coupled with a consistent dividend payout, makes them an attractive option for investors seeking a balanced approach.
In this investment marketplace where trends are ever-changing, the enduring strength of undervalued engineering companies is particularly noteworthy. It’s an ideal solution for people who want to accumulate wealth through a smart and responsible manner. Okay, so now we’re gonna find out about these under-the-radar dividend stocks that are really appealing.
Southern Copper (SCCO)
A big player in copper mining called Southern Copper Corp (NYSE:SCCO) is catching attention. The stock is up an impressive 42% so far this year. This big number is a guiding light for people who invest money for income success, showing the company’s strong showing in a tough market.
Looking at the financials, Southern Copper’s latest profit report shows a company that is growing. In an impressive show of money skills, earnings went up to a surprising $2.51 billion. This is a 16% increase compared to last year.
The profit rose sharply to $619.5 million, showing a big 19% jump from last year. This sudden rise in making money is not just luck; it comes from smart choices and smooth running of things. The company’s clear profit is a big 25%. The company’s income for each share has also gone up a lot, by 19% to 80 cents. This pushes Southern Copper as an even stronger player in money matters.
Looking at the company’s balance sheet shows a firm way of managing assets and debts. Southern Copper has a strong standing with $2.21 billion in cash and short-term investments. The company’s careful focus on money matters shows its dedication to keeping a strong financial base.
The success of Southern Copper isn’t just about figures; it’s a story of strength and careful planning. The company can handle the tricky parts of the copper market well. It also runs its business smoothly in important areas such as Peru and Mexico.
When copper prices go up and down, there are still risks to Southern Copper’s work in the area. However, they can keep giving out big dividends; the yield is a juicy 4.58%. This makes it a good choice for people who want mining shares that give steady income.
AT&T (T)
AT&T (NYSE:T), a strong company in the phone world, shows toughness even with money changes. It’s number one for those who want to earn income from investing their cash. Even though the returns for this year have gone down by 10.7%, it’s very important to look closer into that fact.
AT&T reported a slight increase in their latest quarterly revenue, reaching $30.35 billion, which represents a 1% rise. This demonstrates the company’s significant and expansive presence in the market. However, the net income went down to $3.5 billion, which is a 42% drop. So, it is definitely a mixed bag. Investors clearly want to see some traction after the $88 billion merger with Time Warner failed.
Switching to good money habits, AT&T shows strength. The total amount of money in assets dropped a little by 4.6% to $406.70 billion. At the same time, debts only rose by 0.1%. AT&T has a Price-to-Book (P/B) Ratio of 1.14, making it stand out as good value in an unpredictable market situation.
Changing our attention, AT&T’s determination to be inventive and help the community stands out. Its advances in 5G technology show it as a tech pioneer. Giving to schools and non-profits makes the company’s good reputation even better.
People who study businesses still think good things about AT&T because it promises to keep making money and giving out parts of that income. This feeling makes AT&T’s status as a trustworthy dividend stock even stronger. It attracts people who want regular cash from their investments.
In the end, AT&T has displayed topsy-turvy trends in recent months. However, its steady market growth, creative ideas for doing business differently, and high yield are worth noting. This way makes AT&T a great choice for people looking for under the radar dividend stocks, even if the market swings up and down in the short term.
Amcor PLC (AMCR)
Amcor PLC (NYSE:AMCR) stands out as a savvy pick for income investors. Despite a slight dip of 19% year-to-date, Amcor’s latest earnings spark optimism.
The company beat EPS forecasts by 5%, a bullish sign in uncertain times. With revenues hitting $3.44 billion, Amcor is on a steady financial keel. The latest quarter reinforced investor sentiment in tough times. Near term, the company continues to see soft demand for its containers and cartons. However, in the long run, the Zurich-headquartered company feels it will benefit from price hikes in consumer packaged goods.
Diving into dividends, Amcor is a star performer. With a juicy 5.2% dividend yield and a 50-cent per share payout, it’s a magnet for dividend seekers. The company’s dividend has soared by 27% over three years, showcasing robust growth. Although not yet a dividend king, Amcor is among dividend aristocrats, who are companies with more than 25 years of consistent increases.
In essence, Amcor is a gem for those chasing dividends. The rising payouts, along with a strong business plan, place it as a top choice among under-the-radar dividend stocks. Even though there are problems in the market now, Amcor is still a good option for portfolios focused on getting income because they want to make shareholders happy and grow responsibly. If you are looking for some under-the-radar dividend stocks, start here.

All-around effort: The Steelers kept their postseason hopes alive with a 30-23 win over the Seattle Seahawks at Lumen Field in a game where the offense put up some big numbers.
"We were playing a team that was desperate like we were, and we didn't blink," said Coach Mike Tomlin. "I'm appreciative of that. They're to be congratulated for that.
"I thought the offensive line provided the wave that we rode. We talked all week about trying to conquer the environment and winning the line of scrimmage being a major component of it. They embraced that challenge and I thought they controlled the climate, made third downs, manageable ones, minimized possession downs, minimized the crowd component of it. Just thankful for that.
"A lot of plays made by a lot of people. But that's team football, particularly this time of year as the road gets narrow."
The offense moved the ball efficiently, putting up 468 offensive yards.
Quarterback Mason Rudolph, starting his second consecutive game, completed 18 of 24 passes for 274 yards.
"I thought he did a good job," said Tomlin.
Tomlin wouldn't tip his hand, though, as to who will start at quarterback next week against the Baltimore Ravens at M&T Bank Stadium.
"We'll talk about that next week," said Tomlin. "Right now, we're just appreciative of the victory. We'll give you guys something to buzz about here for the next 24 or so."
The ground game exploded with 202 yards rushing, including Najee Harris carrying the ball 27 times for 122 yards and two touchdowns and Jaylen Warren carrying the ball 13 times for 75 yards and a touchdown.
"I thought he was determined," said Tomlin of Harris. "As was Jaylen. If you are a competitor, you are going to be your best.
"I thought we got appropriate effort from all parties involved and not to minimize it, but it was just a critical time and so if you're a competitor, you're going to be at your best."
Receiver George Pickens had another strong performance, with seven receptions for 131 yards, including another amazing catch that those who watch him have become accustomed to.
"We're used to seeing George make plays like that," said Tomlin.
Props to the offense: Cameron Heyward is accustomed to talking about the team's defensive performance after a game, but following the Steelers win over the Seahawks, he was all about giving the offense their props.
"We haven't been our best defense, but to have an offense that was going out there and giving us 30 points, that's a lot to rely on," said Heyward. "I hate to say it gives us more room for error. It's a team game and to have that complementary football where if we give up a score the offense goes down and gets another touchdown. You really do appreciate that."
Heyward has seen the work that quarterback Mason Rudolph has put in all season, even in tough circumstances when he wasn't playing, and is happy to see the veteran quarterback succeed in his opportunity. He also loved the job the offensive line did from start to finish of the game.
"Mason's a seasoned vet," said Heyward. "I know he hasn't played in a while, but he's very calm and collected. That Seattle crowd is second to none. Props to them, but to handle yourself in that environment, go out there and get a win like that, was pretty huge.
"As much as we'll talk about Mason, props to the o-line. The o-line did an amazing job today. Blocking, finishing runs. It was a complete offensive performance. You tip your hat to them."
The win put the Steelers in position to clinch a playoff berth next week, but they will need some help along the way.
Heyward is just happy the opportunity is there.
"Fighting back, nine and seven right now, a chance to qualify for the playoffs," said Heyward. "Whatever cards you're dealt, you deal with it. To have a chance this late in the season to get in the playoffs, that's all we're hoping for. We know we need help. But that help doesn't happen unless we take care of our business.
"I'm a glass half full type of guy. And we got an opportunity. And it's the guys in the locker room that got it done. Two weeks ago, you can say we were still miles away. So, we'll see what we can do. I believe in the guys in the locker room. I think we have the guys to do it. But we're not going to throw a party if we do get in the playoffs. We feel like we belong, and we just need an extra week to do it."
Showing grit: Running back Najee Harris was named the Steelers Digest Player of the Week for his performance against the Seahawks and it was well deserved.
Harris had 27 carries for 122 yards, a 4.5-yard average, and scored two touchdowns.
Harris said the overall performance of the offense, which put up 468 yards, showed the progress they have made through the season, especially with the impact interim offensive coordinator Eddie Faulkner and quarterback coach/play caller Mike Sullivan have had on the offense, scoring 30 points for the second-straight week.
"It shows the progression we have shown, the grit that we have, the resiliency," said Harris. "It just shows a lot about the offense. Like I said earlier (this season), we had a lot of distractions this year and for Coach Sully and Coach Faulk to have a good game plan, execute it and the o-line coming through, that shows you that what type of team that we are.
"We are doing a good job of knowing what we are doing. If we just stick together like we did and really just believe and execute the game plan I think things like this will show up. Really just a good job by the o-line, the receivers, Coach Sully and Coach Faulk just doing what they have to do and establishing the run executing the game plan they provide."

Let’s take advantage of this new year by taking positions for our portfolio in one of the strongest and even most sustainable sectors. I am, of course, talking about industrial sector. These industrial stock picks are more than worthy of gracing your portfolio. The Dow Jones Index recently made a new all-time high, providing us with opportunities for the coming year. Let’s take a look at these three industrial stock picks for 2024 that have a good outlook for the coming months.
Union Pacific (UNP)
Union Pacific (NYSE:UNP) is a major player in the railroad industry, with an extensive network that is a crucial part of the United States transportation infrastructure.
Despite facing challenges such as reduced fuel surcharge revenues and lower business volumes, the company showed resilience in its third quarter 2023 financial results. With operating revenues of $5.9 billion, the 10% decline was mitigated by higher base prices.
What sets them apart is their commitment to sustainability. The announcement of a new international intermodal terminal in Phoenix reflects its dedication to providing customers with a greener rail option between the Los Angeles Basin and Southwest ports.
The terminal is scheduled to open in early 2024. The company aims to reduce truck traffic on congested freeways, emphasizing Union Pacific’s innovative and environmentally friendly approach.
The human touch is evident in the partnership with Duncan & Son Lines, a family-owned logistics company, for hauling support. This partnership not only underscores Union Pacific’s commitment to innovation, but also highlights its role in reducing truck emissions.
Kenny Rocker, executive vice president of marketing and sales, expressed his enthusiasm for offering a cost-competitive and environmentally friendly rail option to Arizona shippers and receivers.
Beyond commercial operations, they shine for their commitment to diversity and inclusion. The company earned a perfect score of 100% on the Human Rights Campaign Foundation’s Corporate Equality Index two years in a row. This achievement reflects the company’s dedication to LGBTQ+ equality in its policies, practices and benefits.
General Electric (GE)
General Electric (NYSE:GE) is that versatile company that is everywhere from airplanes to medical equipment to energy. They are the heroes behind aircraft engines, renewable energy technologies and other industrial products. The key to GE is its ability to innovate and excel in diverse industries.
They are having excellent financial performance, with an impressive increase in orders, revenues and profit margins during the third quarter of 2023. Not only does this mean they are doing things right, but it also means they are poised for sustainable growth.
In Spain, GE Vernova partnered with Forestalia to install huge wind turbines that will generate megawatts of power.
And in the UK, together with MYTILINEOS, they won a giant £1 billion contract to build high-voltage DC converter stations. This will bring green energy to more than two million homes.
RTX Corp (RTX)
RTX Corp, (NYSE:RTX) also known as Raytheon Technologies, is a key player in the aerospace and defense industry. Despite facing a 21% sales decline in Q3 2023 due to a Pratt metal powder issue, the company proved resilient with $19 billion in adjusted sales. Sales are currently up 12%.
Adjusted earnings per share (EPS) also increased 3% to $1.25. Maintaining strong operating cash flow of $3.3 billion and repurchasing $1.4 billion of its shares, RTX showed off its financial stability.
A major milestone is the $80 million contract awarded to them by the U.S. Navy for Advanced Prototype Electronic Warfare (ADVEW) prototypes. These prototypes, designed for the F/A-18 E/F Super Hornet, are intended to consolidate electronic warfare systems. This will provide a generational renewal to the Navy’s carrier air wing capabilities.
Another achievement is a $31.3 million contract for them to develop high-power microwave systems under the DEFEND program. This will provide cost-effective and reliable solutions against airborne threats.
