Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Tuesday condoled the death of an Indian student in shelling in Ukraine's Kharkiv and called upon the Union government to draw up a strategy for the safe evacuation of all stranded Indians.
The Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) confirmed the death in a tweet on Tuesday and said it was in touch with the family of the student.
The student, Naveen Shekarappa Gyanagoudar, was a native of Chalageri in Karnataka's Haveri district.
''Received the tragic news of Indian student Naveen losing his life in Ukraine. My heartfelt condolences to his family and friends.
''I reiterate, GOI (Government of India) needs a strategic plan for safe evacuation. Every minute is precious,'' Rahul Gandhi wrote on Twitter.
The Congress party expressed condolences to Gyanagoudar's family and friends. It also urged the government to expedite the evacuation of Indians stranded in war-torn Ukraine.
''We are deeply saddened by the tragic news of the demise of an Indian student in Ukraine. Our heartfelt condolences to his family and friends. We once again urge GoI (Government of India) to ensure the speedy and safe evacuation of our people,'' it stated in a tweet.
Congress general secretary Priyanka Gandhi Vadra too condoled the death of the student and asked the government to bring back the Indians stranded in Ukraine as soon as possible.
''The news of the death of Indian student Naveen trapped in Ukraine is very sad. My deepest condolences to their families. May God give them courage in this time of sorrow. I request the government to make every effort to bring back all our students as soon as possible,'' she tweeted.
Expressing sadness over the death, Congress chief spokesperson Randeep Surjewala alleged the BJP government at the Centre ''has no evacuation plan'' and that it has ''abandoned'' the youth. ''Our deepest condolences to the family of the student from Karnataka who has died. This is the tragedy where the BJP Government has no evacuation plan. ''The Modi Government has abandoned our young, Prahlad Joshi decries and insults our students in Ukraine. Only photo-op, no action,'' he said.
He attacked Prime Minister Narendra Modi for campaigning in Uttar Pradesh assembly polls and asked whose responsibility is it to bring all Indians stuck in Ukraine back safely.
''Modi Ji, What would you say to the family in Karnataka which lost their child due to the lack of sensitivity of your government? ''In the midst of Ukraine-Russia war, the lives of around 20,000 Indians are in danger every moment and you are engaged in this (electioneering)? Whose responsibility is it to bring thousands of children back safely,'' Surjewala posed.
The MEA said the foreign secretary is calling in ambassadors of Russia and Ukraine to reiterate its demand for ''urgent safe passage'' to Indian nationals who are still in Kharkiv and in other cities which have become conflict zones.
''Similar action is also being undertaken by our ambassadors in Russia and Ukraine,'' it said.
The Kharkiv city is witnessing increasing fighting between the Ukrainian troops and Russian forces.

China warns US of ‘heavy price’ for backing Taiwan's independence as Biden’s defence team lands in Taipei
- Country:
- China
China on Tuesday warned the US that it will pay a ''heavy price'' for its attempts to show support to Taiwan’s independence as a delegation of ex-American defence officials dispatched by President Joe Biden landed in Taipei amid apprehensions that Beijing may attempt action against the self-ruled island akin to Russia’s military assault in Ukraine.
Taiwanese media reports said a five-member delegation headed by former US Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Mike Admiral (retd) Mullen was received by Taiwan's Foreign Minister Joseph Wu, raising concerns in Beijing over the US efforts to step up its engagement with Taiwan, which China firmly affirms as part of the Chinese mainland.
China in recent months ratcheted up military preparations sending hundreds of its air force jets into Taiwan’s Air Defence Zone besides beefing up its naval force keeping the self-governing breakaway island on tenterhooks.
Officials in Taiwan and the US say that Russia's invasion of Ukraine has drawn fresh attention to China's threat to forcibly annex the self-governing island.
Besides Mullen’s visit, former US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo was due to arrive in Taiwan on Wednesday.
Both Mullen and Pompeo, known for their anti-China rhetoric during their stint under former US president Donald Trump, are due to meet Taiwanese President Tsai Ing-wen, who Beijing blames as the ring-leader of advocating Taiwan’s independence.
Much on the expected lines, the Chinese Foreign Ministry had some sharp words to criticise the visit of US officials. ''The Chinese people are firmly determined to defend national sovereignty and territorial integrity,'' Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Wang Wenbin told a media briefing here when asked about the American officials visit.
''The attempt by the US to show support to Taiwan will be in vain no matter who it sent. China urges the US to abide by the one-China principle,” he said.
He denounced the US guided-missile destroyer USS Ralph Johnson last Saturday sailing through the contested waters of Taiwan Straits, saying the US moves to back Taiwanese independence forces will “accelerate” their fall.
''I wonder what is the US intention behind this high part of this passage of USS Johnson. If it intends to embolden Taiwan's independent separatist forces, then it will only accelerate the fall of Taiwan independence forces and the US will pay a heavy price for his adventurous acts,” Wang said.
“If the US intends to intimidate China by this, then, in front of the 1.4 billion Chinese people united in their steely determination, the so-called military deterrence will be nothing but scrap metal,” he said.
''Such US tricks involving sailing across the Taiwan Strait will better leave the show to those obsessed with hegemony,” Wang said. PTI KJV ZH AKJ ZH ZH

UP polls: Campaigning for sixth phase ends
Campaigning for the sixth phase of polling for 57 assembly seats in Uttar Pradesh, including Gorakhpur Urban from where Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath is in the fray, came to an end on Tuesday evening.Spread over 10 districts, polling in these constituencies will be held from 7 am till 6 pm on Thursday.
- Country:
- India
Campaigning for the sixth phase of polling for 57 assembly seats in Uttar Pradesh, including Gorakhpur Urban from where Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath is in the fray, came to an end on Tuesday evening.
Spread over 10 districts, polling in these constituencies will be held from 7 am till 6 pm on Thursday. The districts where polling is to be held in this phase include Ambedkar Nagar, Balrampur, Siddharthnagar, Basti, Sant Kabir Nagar, Maharajganj, Gorakhpur, Kushinagar, Deoria and Ballia. State Chief Electoral Officer Ajay Kumar Shukla said the campaign for the sixth phase ended at 6 pm and all preparations for voting on Thursday have been completed.
Prominent among the 676 candidates in the fray in this phase are Adityanath, who is contesting his first assembly election, state Congress president Ajay Kumar Lallu (Tamkuhi Raj), Swami Prasad Maurya, who quit as minister to join the Samajwadi Party (Fazilnagar), and Leader of Opposition in the state assembly and senior Samajwadi Party leader Ram Govind Chaudhary (Bansdih).
The Samajwadi Party (SP) has fielded the wife of late Upendra Dutt Shukla, a former BJP leader, against Adityanath.
Uttar Pradesh ministers in the contest are Surya Pratap Shahi (Pathardeva), Satish Chandra Dwivedi (Itwa) and Jai Pratap Singh (Bansi), Shree Ram Chauhan (Khajani) and Jai Prakash Nishad (Rudrapur).
Surendra Singh, the sitting MLA from Bairia in Ballia, who joined the VIP, a new entrant in Uttar Pradesh's electoral politics, after being denied a ticket by the BJP, will also be facing the electorate in this phase.
These 57 seats, of which 11 are reserved seats, are crucial for the BJP which in 2017 had won 46 of them.
Senior leaders, including Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Home Minister Amit Shah, Adityanath, BJP president JP Nadda, SP chief Akhilesh Yadav and Congress leader Priyanka Gandhi, criss-crossed the districts going to polls to campaign for their respective parties.
Prime Minister Modi had attacked the BJP's rivals by tagging them as 'ghor pariwarvadi' (staunch dynasts) who, he said, can never make India capable or Uttar Pradesh empowered.
Congress general secretary Priyanka Gandhi rebutted by saying that BJP was only against her family, which has not bowed down to the saffron party.
SP chief Yadav, during campaigning on these seats, had accused the BJP of hatching a conspiracy of ending reservation and selling government organisations to the private sector. There are a total of over 2.14 crore voters in this phase.PTI SAB ANB ANB

Reuters US Domestic News Summary
Following is a summary of current US domestic news briefs.
Top Senate Republican: No place in Republican Party for white supremacists
U.S. Senate Republican leader Mitch McConnell spoke out on Monday against two Republican members of Congress who appeared at a white nationalist conference last week, making him the latest prominent Republican to rule out any role for racist politics in the party. "There's no place in the Republican Party for white supremacists or anti-Semitism," McConnell said in a statement, after being asked by a reporter about appearances by Representatives Marjorie Taylor Greene and Paul Gosar at a meeting of the America First Political Action Conference.
Abortion rights bill fails to pass procedural vote, dies in U.S. Senate
A bill to protect the right to have an abortion in the United States died in the Senate on Monday after it failed to garner enough Republican support to pass a procedural vote. While the Women's Health Protection Act was expected to fail, Democratic leaders were under pressure from constituents to put it to a vote anyway in a show of support for federal abortion rights, as the U.S. Supreme Court could soon upend those rights.
Sarah Palin seeks new trial, judge's disqualification in NY Times case
Former U.S. vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin asked a U.S. court on Monday for a new trial after losing her defamation case against the New York Times earlier this month, and requested that the judge overseeing the case be disqualified. Palin's attorneys said last week they would take those steps because several jurors received push notifications on their cellphones before deliberations were over about U.S. District Judge Jed Rakoff's decision to dismiss the case regardless of their verdict.
Five dead as man kills three children and himself in California church
A man shot and killed his three children and a fourth person before taking his own life on Monday in an outburst of gun violence that unfolded in a church near California's capital, police said. Sacramento County Sheriff's Department spokesperson Rod Grassmann told reporters near the scene that investigators were seeking clues to a motive for the bloodshed but believed the shooting stemmed from a domestic dispute.
$10 toothpaste? U.S. household goods makers face blowback on price hikes
Get ready for the $10 tube of toothpaste. Colgate-Palmolive Co CEO Noel Wallace said last week at an industry conference that the household goods maker sees its new Optic White Pro Series toothpaste as the type of premium product "vital" to its ability to raise prices, which will help drive profit growth this year.
White House denies executive privilege for former Trump advisors
The White House said on Monday it is denying executive privilege to advisors of former President Donald Trump, whose testimony is being sought by a Congressional committee investigating the deadly Jan. 6, 2021 Capitol riot. In letters dated Feb. 28, a White House lawyer explained to former Trump trade advisor Peter Navarro and to a lawyer for Michael Flynn, Trump's first national security adviser, that President Joe Biden had determined that executive privilege "is not in the national interest, and therefore is not justified" in certain matters before the committee.
U.S. parents still divided over school COVID masking rules -survey
As public schools around the United States lift COVID-19 mask mandates, parents are divided over the issue, with nearly 43% saying face covering requirements should remain in place to prevent virus transmission, according to a survey by the Kaiser Family Foundation (KFF). Most parents who responded also expressed concern about the safety and effectiveness of COVID-19 vaccines for children under age 5, saying they do not have enough information, according to the KFF survey of 1,502 adults conducted between Feb. 9 and 21.
As Ukraine conflict rages, Biden seeks to unite Americans in annual speech
U.S. President Joe Biden, who has earned praise for his efforts to rally European allies and other nations against Russian President Vladimir Putin's invasion of Ukraine, will turn to uniting Americans in the State of the Union speech on Tuesday. With the conflict in Ukraine raging, Biden intends to use the annual speech to stress the importance of countering Putin and push his domestic economic agenda, including reintroducing elements of his stalled Build Back Better program, administration officials said.
Republican Greg Abbott faces conservative challengers in Texas primary election
Republican Texas Governor Greg Abbott will try to hold off challengers on his right flank on Tuesday to set up a likely November election against Democratic former Congressman Beto O'Rourke as the state holds the first nominating contest of the U.S. midterms. Voters will also pick their parties' nominees for the U.S. House of Representatives and other statewide offices in primary elections that will provide the first test of a wave of new restrictions on voting passed in response to Donald Trump's false claims of election fraud.
Trump appeals ruling requiring that he testify in New York probe
Donald Trump on Monday appealed a judge's ruling that he answer questions under oath in a civil probe by New York's attorney general into the former U.S. president's business practices. The appeal, which was expected, will delay Attorney General Letitia James from obtaining testimony from Trump and his two oldest children, Donald Trump Jr and Ivanka Trump, possibly for months.

ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (KRQE) – Answers remain slim 13 years after the remains of 11 women and an unborn child were found on Albuquerque’s West Mesa. Who killed and buried the victims in the West Mesa murder case?
Marking the 13th anniversary of the discovery of the remains, Albuquerque city leaders recently held a news conference in February, renewing their call for help and information that could solve the case. Every year, tips pour in, but from an outsiders perspective, it may appear like investigators are seemingly are no closer to solving the case.
Where does the West Mesa murder case stand in 2022? KRQE News 13’s Chris McKee and Gabrielle Burkhart asked that question and others of Albuquerque Police on this week’s episode of the New Mexico News Podcast. A former APD homicide sergeant, Liz Thomson is now working on the murder cold case as a contract investigator.
In part one of this two-part series, Thompson sheds insight on why the department remains relatively tight-lipped about the case and why its no longer “naming-names” of people long connected to the case. Stick around for the end of the episode for more information on the upcoming “part two” in the series.

Astronomers discover black hole spins on its side

- Country:
- Germany
Astronomers make astonishing discoveries every now and then. One of the most fascinating subjects for any astronomer is without a doubt, the black hole. A recent discovery by a team of astronomers found that the black hole spins on its side. The team published their findings in the journal 'Science'.
Scientist Prof. Dr Svetlana Berdyugina, Professor of Astrophysics at the University of Freiburg and Director of the Leibniz Institute for Solar Physics (KIS), together with an international team of astronomers, has reliably measured for the first time a large difference between the rotation axis of the black hole and the axis of the orbit of the binary star system named MAXI J1820+070. The black hole's rotation axis is tilted by more than 40 degrees with respect to the axis of the star's orbit. "This finding challenges current theoretical models of black hole formation," Berdyugina said.
"The difference of more than 40 degrees between the orbital axis and the spin of the black hole was completely unexpected. Scientists have often assumed that this difference is very small when modeling the behavior of matter in a curved period around a black hole," Berdyugina explained. The new finding forced astronomers to add a new dimension to their models.
The research team made its discovery with the astronomical polarimeter DIPol-UF, an instrument for measuring the angle of the optical rotation of light. It was built by the Leibniz Institute for Solar Physics (KIS) and the University of Turku/Finland. It was finally put to use in the Nordic Optical Telescope on La Palma, Spain. "Our polarimeter used, DIPol-UF, is unique in its ability to measure optical polarization with the precision and accuracy of a few parts per million. Determining the orbital orientation of black holes based on polarization opens a new path to understanding their formation and physics," Berdyugina explained.
The black holes in binary star systems were formed by a cosmic cataclysm - the collapse of a massive star. Now, the researchers noted how a black hole drags matter from the nearby, lighter companion star orbiting the system's gravitational centre. Bright optical radiation and X-rays as the last sign of infalling material were seen, as well as radio emission from the jets ejected from the system. By tracking the luminous gas streams, the jets, in the radio and X-ray range, the scientists were able to pinpoint the direction of the black hole's rotation axis. (ANI)

'Below normal' max temperatures likely in northern plains from Mar to May: IMD
During the upcoming hot weather season March to May, normal to above normal minimum temperatures are most likely over many parts of northwest India, most parts of northeast India, some parts of central India, east coastal region and some areas along the foothills of the Himalayas, the IMD said in a statement.
- Country:
- India
Maximum temperatures are predicted to remain ''below normal'' in the northern plains, including Punjab, parts of Haryana, Uttar Pradesh and Bihar, in the March to May period, the India Meteorological Department said on Tuesday. ''Above normal maximum temperatures are most likely over many areas in western and adjoining central India, northwest India and northernmost parts of northeast India,'' it said. However, below normal maximum temperatures are likely over most parts of Peninsular India, east and northeast India as well as the northern plains, the IMD said.
The number of heat waves in the Indo-Gangetic plains is likely to be lower than normal during the period, it said. ''The maximum temperatures are likely to remain above normal in Jammu and Kashmir, Ladakh, Himachal Pradesh, major parts of Rajasthan, Gujarat and adjoining areas of Madhya Pradesh and Maharashtra,'' IMD Director General Mrutyunjay Mohapatra said. ''During the upcoming hot weather season (March to May), normal to above normal minimum temperatures are most likely over many parts of northwest India, most parts of northeast India, some parts of central India, east coastal region and some areas along the foothills of the Himalayas,'' the IMD said in a statement. During March, normal to below normal maximum temperatures are likely over most parts of Peninsular India and east and northeast India, whereas above normal maximum temperatures are forecast over many parts of western and central India.
Minimum temperature expected to be above normal in most parts of northwest and west India.
No heat wave is predicted in March in the northern plains.
For the plains, a ''heat wave'' is declared when the maximum temperature is more than 40 degrees Celsius, and at least 4.5 notches above normal. A ''severe'' heat wave is declared if departure from normal temperature is more than 6.5 degrees Celsius, according to the IMD.
The IMD also said India recorded 44 percent more rainfall in the winter season.
Heavy rainfall events (15) in the country in February were the lowest in four years, it said, adding that most heavy rainfall events were concentrated in Kerala and Jammu and Kashmir.
The country saw 18 events each of heavy rainfall in 2021 and 2020 and 82 in 2019.

ISL: Kerala, Mumbai lock horns in virtual shootout for semis spot
Kerala Blasters FC and Mumbai City FC will face off in a virtual shootout for a place in the semifinals, in a rescheduled Indian Super League fixture at the Tilak Maidan Stadium here on Wednesday.
- Country:
- India
Kerala Blasters FC and Mumbai City FC will face off in a virtual shootout for a place in the semifinals, in a rescheduled Indian Super League fixture at the Tilak Maidan Stadium here on Wednesday. Kerala are placed fifth in the points table with 30 points from 18 matches, one point less than Mumbai who are fourth having 31 points from 18 games.
With league leaders Hyderabad FC already through to the semis and Jamshedpur FC and ATK Mohun Bagan needing just one point to confirm their place as well, it is Kerala and Mumbai who are likely to fight it out for the last spot. Kerala thrashed Chennaiyin FC 3-0 in their last game to get back to winning ways and keep their top-four ambitions firmly intact. Mumbai too beat FC Goa to continue their winning streak.
"Tomorrow's game is everything you wish for as a football player. It is nice to play against a top team and we have our preparations in place and it doesn't change a lot compared to other games. We will be ready to show our strength on the pitch," Kerala head coach Ivan Vukomanovic said. "In tomorrow's game, we will see all elements of football. Both teams will fight for points and will fight till the last moment," he added.
For Kerala, Adrian Luna has been in superb form throughout the season and the Uruguayan playmaker now sits top of the assists list along with h Ahmed Jahouh and Greg Stewart. Despite it being his first year in the ISL, Luna has already started breaking assist records at Kerala. With 6 assists, he sits at the joint top for most assists in Kerala Blasters history along with Jessel Carneiro and Josu Prieto. Mumbai's lean patch started with their defeat against Kerala in their first encounter of the season. "We are good to go. Jahouh trained with the squad yesterday. We will give him the best chance to play tomorrow. We will assess that on the gameday. Everyone else is good to go," said Mumbai head coach Des Buckingham.
On Kerala, he added: "We just keep concentrating on ourselves. I am not interested in other teams' run of form or results. We should look at our own form and we started this season extremely well. We come into this game with four wins out of the last five. We have started to show some good signs on how we want to play so the focus will be on us." Mumbai have conceded 20 goals this season, crossing their tally of 18 goals conceded in the league stage of ISL 20-21 in just 11 matches, and Buckingham would hope his team can produce a solid defensive display on Wednesday.

Sport-Badminton federation bans athletes from Russia and Belarus
The world governing body for badminton (BWF) said on Tuesday that players from Russia and Belarus would be banned from international tournaments from next week, following Russia's invasion of Ukraine. Since the start of what Russian President Vladimir Putin has called "a special military operation" last week, sports bodies across the world have already moved against Russia and Belarus by refusing to host or play against teams from the countries.
The world governing body for badminton (BWF) said on Tuesday that players from Russia and Belarus would be banned from international tournaments from next week, following Russia's invasion of Ukraine.
Since the start of what Russian President Vladimir Putin has called "a special military operation" last week, sports bodies across the world have already moved against Russia and Belarus by refusing to host or play against teams from the countries. The BWF's move comes a day after it cancelled tournaments in Russia and Belarus and is in line with recommendations made by the International Olympic Committee executive board.
The BWF said the enforced non-participation of athletes and officials from Russia and Belarus would commence at the German Open from March 8-13. It added that a small number of Russian athletes competing in two back-to-back international Para badminton tournaments in Spain will be allowed to participate as they have already arrived on location.
"These players, however, will compete as neutral athletes, with no national flags or anthems," it said. Swimming's world governing body FINA, which on Monday called off the World Junior Swimming Championships in Kazan, Russia, said on Tuesday that Russian and Belarusian athletes would now compete as neutral athletes or neutral teams.
"No national symbols, colours, flags should be displayed or anthems should be played, in international Aquatics events which are not already part of the respective World Anti-Doping Agency sanctions for Russia," FINA said. It added that the FINA Order awarded to Russian President Vladimir Putin in 2014 has been withdrawn.
The Norwegian Skiing Association also announced on Tuesday that Russian and Belarusian skiers will not be allowed to take part in this weekend's competitions in Norway.

International Boxing body to hold board meeting "with view to suspending" Russians & Belarusians
- Country:
- Switzerland
The International Boxing Association (IBA) on Tuesday said it would convene a meeting of its board of directors later this week ''to suspend'' Russian and Belarusian boxers from competition owing to the invasion of Ukraine that has evoked worldwide condemnation.
The IBA said the move was necessitated by the International Olympic Committee's recent recommendation, calling on international federations to suspend Russia, which has invaded Ukraine and found support from Belarus.
''Following IOC recommendations regarding the participation of Russian and Belarusian athletes, and intending to suspend these athletes from the competition, IBA has convened a meeting of the IBA Board of Directors,'' the IBA stated.
''The meeting will take place later this week,'' it added.
''As previously confirmed, the IBA Board of Directors will also consider the status of the Global Boxing Cup, scheduled to take place in Russian cities in June of this year.'' Russia's invasion of Ukraine last week triggered global condemnation and the country is being suspended from international sporting events.
Most recently, Russian teams were suspended from all international football, including qualifying matches for the 2022 World Cup.
This was after the IOC Executive Board issued an ''urgent recommendation not to organize any sports event in Russia or Belarus.'' IOC EB also strongly urged International Sports Federations and organizers of events to ''do everything in their power to ensure that no athlete or sports official from Russia or Belarus be allowed to take part under the name of Russia or Belarus.''

India women's hockey team will open their World Cup 2022 campaign against England
The schedule for the upcoming FIH Hockey Women's World Cup 2022 in Spain and Netherlands to begin from 1 July was announced by the International Hockey Federation.
- Country:
- India
The schedule for the upcoming FIH Hockey Women's World Cup 2022 in Spain and Netherlands to begin from 1 July was announced by the International Hockey Federation. The India Women's Hockey Team will open their campaign against England on July 3 in the Pool B match. India will next face off against China on July 5 and New Zealand on July 7.
India Women's Team halfback Sushila Chanu addressed the media at a virtual press conference and said that the order of the matches does not change how the team will be preparing for the tournament. "It does not matter against which opponents we start our campaign. We are not afraid of which team we are facing first as our mentality and our mindset is to take each game as it comes and try and win every match," Sushila Chanu said.
"We have faced China recently in Muscat, Oman, in the Women's Hockey Asia Cup 2022, and in the FIH Hockey Pro League 2021/22. and so it will be an advantage for us. We will be playing the FIH Hockey Pro League 2021/22 matches against England next month. We had last played New Zealand in 2020. So we know about all these teams quite well and we know how we have to prepare for the upcoming challenges," the veteran hockey player added. India competed against the Spain Women's Hockey Team at the Kalinga Stadium in Bhubaneswar over the past weekend in a two-legged affair. While India won the first match 2-1, Spain won the second match 4-3. India forward Navneet Kaur also spoke on how the team has gained confidence in the past couple of years because of constantly facing higher-ranked opponents.
"Around 2-3 years ago, there used to be a concern in the team before facing stronger opponents. But now, there is no fear in our team and we feel we are ready to face every challenge. Even if an opponent scores the first goal, we know we have the capability and skills to get things back in our favour. Our team has developed a fighting spirit over the past couple of years. This has worked really well for us," Navneet said. India will next play a double-header against Germany in FIH Hockey Pro League 2021/22 on March 12th (Saturday) and March 13th (Sunday).
On being asked about the preparation for the upcoming games, Navneet said, "We have faced off against Germany last year. So, we will definitely take a look back at videos of those matches to recognize what are our stronger areas, and what areas we have to improve upon when we face them again." (ANI)

Mithali says her career has come a full circle, looking to finish journey with WC trophy
It has come a full circle and I am looking forward to finishing the journey, Raj said in a video posted by the ICC.I would look forward to all my players doing well in the World Cup and that will give the Indian team the opportunity to get a hand on that elusive cup. India had lost the recent ODI series against New Zealand 1-4 but the team was able to post 250-plus scores consistently.
- Country:
- New Zealand
Captaining the Indian women's team in the upcoming World Cup after first featuring in the showpiece 22 years ago, Mithali Raj feels her career has come a full circle with only the dream of holding the ''elusive'' trophy remaining unfulfilled.
Raj was a part of the Indian team that played in the 2000 World Cup in New Zealand and more than two decades later, she is returning to the same country, this time as the captain. In between, she had also faced the heartbreak of losing in the summit clash to England in the 2017 edition, besides being a member of the team that ended second in 2005.
''I have come a long way from the 2000 World Cup, that also in New Zealand. I missed (matches of) that World Cup because of typhoid and here I am. It has come a full circle and I am looking forward to finishing the journey,'' Raj said in a video posted by the ICC.
''I would look forward to all my players doing well in the World Cup and that will allow the Indian team to get a hand on that elusive cup.'' India had lost the recent ODI series against New Zealand 1-4 but the team was able to post 250-plus scores consistently. Raj said the side was looking to do better during the March 4 to April 3 World Cup.
''What we are looking at improving as a team for the World Cup is something we worked on in the last series and before that.
''Yes, there was a bit of concern during South Africa and England tour. By the Australia and New Zealand series, the team has come around well to score above 250 consistently. We look forward to doing the same during the World Cup, probably much better than that.'' The 39-year-old veteran batter said having a few left-handers among the top and middle-order is an advantage for the team.
''It is good to have left-handers in the playing XI, the advantage of having a left-right combination in the middle creates difficulties to the (opposition) captain, bowlers, and the fielders.'' Raj has been in good nick in the lead-up to the showpiece with nine fifties since the resumption of cricket last year.
''I always prefer sticking to the basics of the game because when you play a big game and high-pressure situation, it is difficult to maintain composure. It is important to focus on the basic things you have worked on over the years and that comes to your help.'' She said a strong performance in the World Cup would help in improving the fan base of the Indian women's cricket team.
''I hope every player becomes a household name. Also, there are a lot many young girls who looked up to the players. I am sure they will idolize many more women cricketers. ''Not just girls, but also young boys should look up to the young girls because these girls have worked so hard, sacrificed so much to be at the spot where they are now.''

LONDON (AP) — Queen Elizabeth II held two virtual audiences after more than a week of suffering cold-like symptoms from COVID-19.
Buckingham Palace said the 95-year-old British monarch held virtual sessions with the ambassadors of Chad and Andorra. The queen canceled several sessions last week, so the ones held Tuesday suggest she is recovering.
The monarch’s age, COVID-19 diagnosis and a health scare last year caused worry among officials and the public. The palace's Feb. 20 announcement that Elizabeth had tested positive test for the coronavirus virus prompted concern and get-well wishes from across Britain’s political spectrum.
The palace has declined to offer day-to day commentary on the monarch's health, citing her right to privacy. But palace officials have said that Elizabeth, who has been fully vaccinated and had a booster shot, would continue with “light” duties at Windsor Castle.
The queen, who is the country’s longest-reigning monarch. has a series of engagements coming up as she celebrates her Platinum Jubilee, marking 70 years on the throne.
She is due to attend the Commonwealth Service at Westminster Abbey on March 14, and then a March 26 memorial service, also at the Abbey, for her late husband, Prince Philip, who died last April at age 99.

“The Night Shift” by Alex Finlay (Minotaur)
New Year’s Eve, 1999. Four teenage girls working late at a video store in Linden, New Jersey, are savagely attacked. Only one, Ella Monroe, survives, and she is still haunted by what the killer whispered as he stabbed her.
“Goodnight, pretty girl.”
Thanks to an anonymous tip, police discover the murder weapon in the locker of a high school student named Vince Whitaker. But before he can be brought to justice, he vanishes.
Fifteen years later, four teenagers working late at a Linden ice cream shop are attacked, and once again, only one, Jessica Duval, survives. She, too, heard him whisper as he stabbed her.
“Goodnight, pretty girl.”
So begins “The Night Shift,” the second novel attributed to Alex Finlay, the pen name of a Washington, D.C.-based attorney who has written other thrillers under his real name.
Did Whitaker return to Linden to strike again?
Could this new act of brutality be the work of a copycat?
A Linden police officer and an FBI agent investigate, studying every scrap of evidence about the new case and unearthing long-held secrets about the first, looking for connections.
But they aren’t the only ones. Convinced that Whitaker is innocent, his younger brother, now a public defender, launches a personal search for the truth. Surprisingly, so does the recent survivor, Jessica, who, authorities discover, has long been obsessed with the first case.
Meanwhile, a local school official who knew both survivors well convinces the first, Ella, now working as a therapist, to counsel Jessica, causing more complications.
The result is a suspenseful tale of vengeance, brotherly love, teenage romance, and the perils of jumping to conclusions. Finlay spins it at a rapid pace, his characters well-drawn and his tangled plot expertly developed.
The twists arrive at a dizzying pace, and the when the killer is finally revealed, few readers are likely to see it coming.

Two-time Olympic champion Valerie Adams announces retirement from shot put
New Zealand's sporting icon Dame Valerie Adams has called time on her legendary shot put career on Tuesday.
- Country:
- New Zealand
New Zealand's sporting icon Dame Valerie Adams has called time on her legendary shot put career on Tuesday. Dame Valerie is one of New Zealand's greatest-ever athletes and steps away from her influential and medal-laden competitive career boasting a huge legacy that spanned more than 20 years.
New Zealand's most decorated track and field Olympian - with golds at Beijing 2008 and London 2012, a silver and a bronze - revealed her decision at a news conference in Auckland after speculation in recent days. "Whilst today marks the end of my shotput career, Athletics will always be a part of my life. I have given my heart and soul to this sport and loved and nurtured it from a young age," Dame Valerie said.
During her illustrious career the Kiwi represented her country at five Olympic Games winning four medals (two gold, one silver and one bronze), she also claimed eight world titles, five Commonwealth medals (three gold and two silver) and enjoyed a staggering streak of 107 successive shot put victories from 2006 to 2015. New Zealand Olympic Committee CEO Kereyn Smith praised Adams, saying as per Olympics.com, "She has been a leader of our teams, both through her performance and her actions on and off the field of play. She embodies the values of the New Zealand Team and her drive and determination have been second to none."
"Dame Valerie retires as one of our greatest ever Olympians and athletes. She will be missed by our athletes and our teams, and we wish her all the best for whatever comes next," she added. (ANI)

CAGAYAN DE ORO, Philippines (AP) — Philippine troops backed by fighter jets attacked a remote camp of Muslim militants linked to the Islamic State group on Tuesday in a predawn assault in the country’s south that left two insurgents and a soldier dead, military officials said.
Two soldiers were wounded in the assault on the camp of about 50 Dawlah Islamiya group fighters near the town of Maguing in Lanao del Sur province. Air force fighter jets dropped a dozen bombs as army troops launched a ground attack, said regional military commander Lt. Gen. Alfredo Rosario Jr.
The gunmen fled after the airstrikes and were being pursued, Rosario and other military officials said. The assault was staged far from rural communities to prevent civilians from being caught in the crossfire, they said.
Military officials said troops were continuing to clash sporadically with fleeing militants led by a militant commander they identified as Abu Zacharia.
Members of Dawlah Islamiya were involved in a 2017 siege of southern Marawi city, where hundreds of militants waving Islamic State group-style black flags occupied commercial buildings and villages and took hostages. Filipino troops, backed by U.S. and Australian surveillance aircraft, quelled the five-month siege, which left about 1,200 people dead, mostly militants.
The military has been launching offensives against small armed groups allied with the militants who laid siege on Marawi, including the Abu Sayyaf, which has been blacklisted by the U.S. and the Philippines for past bombings, ransom kidnappings and beheadings.

- Annual HICP was a tad higher than expected in February at 5.5%.
- The euro didn't react, with focus much more on geopolitics right now.
German HICP inflation rose to 5.5% YoY in February, slightly above the 5.4% expected and up from January's 5.1% reading, according to a preliminary estimate released by Destatis on Tuesday. MoM, HICP inflation came in at 0.9%, slightly above the 0.8% expected and in line with January's 0.9% MoM reading.
Headline German CPI, meanwhile, rose slightly to 5.1% YoY from 4.9% in January, in line with expectations. The MoM pace of CPI was also in line with expectations at 0.9%, up from 0.4% in January.
Market Reaction
With focus very much on geopolitics right now as opposed to economic data, the broadly as expected German inflation figures haven't impacted the euro at all.

100th Test another feather in Kohli's cap: Jasprit Bumrah
You know it is a testimony to his hard-work, dedication, Bumrah said in an online press conference here....playing 100 Test matches for your country is a great occasion and he has contributed a lot to the success of the Indian team and will contribute a lot more in the future as well, he added.It is another feather in his Kohlis cap.
- Country:
- India
He made his Test debut under Virat Kohli and as the superstar-batter gears up for his 100th outing in the format, Indian pace spearhead and current vice-captain Jasprit Bumrah said the landmark game is a reflection of his former skipper's dedication towards the game.
Kohli's 100th Test would be against Sri Lanka beginning here on March 4. Bumrah made his Test debut under Kohli's leadership in 2018. ''It is always a special achievement for a player. You know it is a testimony to his hard-work, dedication,'' Bumrah said in an online press conference here.
''...(playing) 100 Test matches for your country is a great occasion and he has contributed a lot to the success of the Indian team and will contribute a lot more in the future as well,'' he added.
''It is another feather in his (Kohli's) cap. I just wish him the best and congratulate him for the achievement.'' Asked if he would like to gift Kohli something on the special occasion, Bumrah said, ''If the Indian team wins, then there is no best (better) present than that. But he (Kohli) as a cricketer would like to give his best.'' ''Whichever match we play, whether it is his 100th Test, yes obviously, (it is) a big achievement and it is a testimony to his hard work, but India's main focus is on the series.
The Mohali test will be played behind closed doors and asked whether it was a bit of a downer, Bumrah said, ''See, right now we are in the frame of mind, where we are focussing on what we can control.'' ''(If) the crowds come, it is good for the energy, but that is something that we cannot control, we don't have any power regarding that, we don't decide the rules,'' he made it clear.
''So, for us what we can control is our energy, so we are trying to focus on that, and that is the basic thing in everybody's mind right now, that how do we prepare.
''We are in the best frame of mind, even if crowds are not there, so how do we keep that energy up. And with that, obviously, as I said, it is a big, big day, a big match for Virat Kohli,'' added Bumrah.
So far, Kohli has scored 7962 runs from 99 Test matches after making his debut against the West Indies at Kingston in 2011.

CAGAYAN DE ORO, Philippines (AP) — Philippine troops backed by fighter jets attacked a remote camp of Muslim militants linked to the Islamic State group on Tuesday in a predawn assault in the country’s south that left two insurgents and a soldier dead, military officials said.
Two soldiers were wounded in the assault on the camp of about 50 Dawlah Islamiya group fighters near the town of Maguing in Lanao del Sur province. Air force fighter jets dropped a dozen bombs as army troops launched a ground attack, said regional military commander Lt. Gen. Alfredo Rosario Jr.
The gunmen fled after the airstrikes and were being pursued, Rosario and other military officials said. The assault was staged far from rural communities to prevent civilians from being caught in the crossfire, they said.
Military officials said troops were continuing to clash sporadically with fleeing militants led by a militant commander they identified as Abu Zacharia.
Members of Dawlah Islamiya were involved in a 2017 siege of southern Marawi city, where hundreds of militants waving Islamic State group-style black flags occupied commercial buildings and villages and took hostages. Filipino troops, backed by U.S. and Australian surveillance aircraft, quelled the five-month siege, which left about 1,200 people dead, mostly militants.
The military has been launching offensives against small armed groups allied with the militants who laid siege on Marawi, including the Abu Sayyaf, which has been blacklisted by the U.S. and the Philippines for past bombings, ransom kidnappings and beheadings.

Gold has catapulted to a $1,974 high before giving up gains and quickly succumbed to a $1,878 low. Technically, in the bigger picture, gold’s price profile remains bullish unless it craters under $1,770, Benjamin Wong, Strategist at DBS bank, reports.
Stay constructive, buy the dips
“For gold to dispel the prospect of a corrective decline before resuming its upward path, a move that sustains over $1,950-$1,973 is required.”
“Our prior tactical $1,810 long was taken out in the recent volatile moves, and we replenish a long at $1,863. We add on at $1,810 with an invalidation at $1,770 accompanied by a $1,920 harvest point.”
“Sub-$1,780-$1,770 would be a key level for gold to hold regardless of market volatility to ensure the bullish build-up from last August’s $1,690 level stays intact. A break thus can likely alter the larger landscape; however, this is not the fancied case.”
“A noticeable gap between CFTC speculators and industry insiders needs to narrow before gold stabilises.”

The Latest: Russia pummels Ukraine's second-largest city, convoy nears Kyiv
Russian strikes pounded the central square in Ukraine's second-largest city and other civilian targets Tuesday and a 40-mile convoy of tanks and other vehicles threatened the capital. Ukraine’s embattled president accused Moscow of resorting to terror tactics to press Europe’s largest ground war in generations.
With the Kremlin increasingly isolated by tough economic sanctions that have tanked the ruble currency, Russian troops attempted to advance on Ukraine’s two biggest cities. In strategic Kharkiv, an eastern city with a population of about 1.5 million, videos posted online showed explosions hitting the region's Soviet-era administrative building and residential areas. A maternity ward relocated to an underground shelter.
Here's the latest on the Ukraine-Russia conflict as of 8 a.m. (eastern):
- NATO chief tells the AP the alliance sees no need to change its nuclear weapons alert level, despite Russia’s threats.
- The U.N. human rights office called Tuesday for the release of all peaceful protesters who were arrested after taking part in anti-war demonstrations in Russia.
- Kremlin’s spokesman Dmitry Peskov insisted Tuesday that “the Russian troops don’t conduct any strikes against civilian infrastructure and residential areas.” Peskov’s claim contradicts abundant evidence documented by the AP of indiscriminate shelling of homes, schools, and hospitals across Ukraine.
- The world’s biggest shipping company, A.P. Moller - Maersk, says that all new bookings to and from Russia “will be temporarily suspended, with exception of foodstuffs, medical and humanitarian supplies.”
- A 40-mile convoy of Russian tanks and other vehicles threatened Ukraine's capital Tuesday.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy called the attack on Kharkiv’s main square “frank, undisguised terror,” blaming a Russian missile and calling it a war crime. “Nobody will forgive. Nobody will forget. ... This is state terrorism of the Russian Federation.”
In an emotional appeal to the European Parliament later, Zelenskyy said: “We are fighting also to be equal members of Europe. I believe that today we are showing everybody that is what we are ... We have proven that, as a minimum, we are the same as you.”
In addition to the strikes on cities, reports have emerged that Moscow has used cluster bombs on three populated areas. If confirmed, that would represent a worrying new level of brutality in the war — and could lead to even further isolation in Russia.
Already, with Western powers sending weapons to Ukraine and driving a global squeeze of Russia’s economy, President Vladimir Putin’s options have diminished as he seeks to redraw the global map — and pull Ukraine’s western-leaning democracy back into Moscow’s orbit.
The Kremlin denied Tuesday that it has used such munitions and insisted again that its forces only have struck military targets — despite evidence documented by AP reporters of shelling of homes, schools and hospitals.

Unbowed by Western condemnation, Russian officials upped their threats of escalation — days after raising the specter of a nuclear attack. The Russian defense minister vowed Tuesday to press the offensive until it achieves its goals, while a top Kremlin official warned that the West's “economic war” against Russia could turn into a “real one.”
A first round of talks Monday between Ukraine and Russia yielded no stop in the fighting, though both sides agreed to another meeting in coming days.
Throughout the country, many Ukrainian civilians spent another night huddled in shelters, basements or corridors. More than a half-million people have fled the country, and the U.N. human rights office said Tuesday that it has recorded the deaths of 136 civilians, including 13 children. The real toll is likely far higher.

“It is a nightmare, and it seizes you from the inside very strongly. This cannot be explained with words,” said Kharkiv resident Ekaterina Babenko, taking shelter in a basement with neighbors for a fifth straight day. “We have small children, elderly people and frankly speaking it is very frightening.”
A Ukrainian military official said Belarusian troops joined the war Tuesday in the Chernihiv region, without providing details. But Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko said he had no plans to join the fight.
The precision bombing of Kharkiv’s Freedom Square — Ukraine’s largest plaza, and the nucleus of public life for the city — was a turning point for many Ukrainians, brazen evidence that the Russian invasion wasn’t just about hitting military targets but also about breaking their spirits.
The strike blew out or shattered windows and walls of buildings that ring the massive central square, which was piled high with debris and dust. Inside one building, chunks of plaster were scattered, and doors, ripped from their hinges, lay across hallways.
“People are under the ruins, we have pulled out bodies," said Yevhen Vasylenko, representative of the Emergency Situations Ministry in Kharkiv region. He said at least six were killed and 20 injured in the strike.
Regional administration chief Oleh Sinehubov said that at least 11 people were killed and scores of others were wounded the day before, during Monday’s shelling of the city. More people were wounded Tuesday, according to authorities.
One after the other, explosions burst through a residential area of Kharkiv in one video verified by AP. In the background, a man pleaded with a woman to leave, and a woman cried.
Determined for life to go on despite the attacks, hospital workers transferred a Kharkiv maternity ward to a bomb shelter. Amid makeshift electrical sockets and mattresses piled up against the walls, pregnant women paced the crowded space, accompanied by the cries of dozens of newborns.
Russia’s goals in hitting central Kharkiv were not immediately clear. Western officials speculated that it is trying to pull in Ukrainian forces to defend the city while a larger Russian force encircles Kyiv. They believe Putin’s overall goal is to overthrow the Ukrainian government and install a friendly one.
Zelenskyy said Russia was using the strikes to put pressure on his government. He did not offer details of the talks between Ukrainian and Russian envoys, but he said Monday night that Kyiv was not prepared to make concessions “when one side is hitting another with rocket artillery.”
Meanwhile, Russian troops advanced toward Kyiv, a city of nearly 3 million. The convoy of armored vehicles, tanks, artillery and support vehicles was 25 kilometers (17 miles) from the center of the city and stretched about 65 kilometers (40 miles), according to satellite imagery from Maxar Technologies
In a worrying development, Human Rights Watch has said it documented a cluster bomb attack outside a hospital in Ukraine’s east in recent days. Local residents have also reported the use of the munitions in Kharkiv and the village of Kiyanka near the northern city of Chernihiv, though there was no independent confirmation.
The International Criminal Court chief prosecutor has said he plans to open a Ukraine investigation and is monitoring the conflict.
Video: Anti-war protests continue across Russia
Flames shot up from a military base northeast of Kyiv, in the suburb of Brovary, in footage taken from a car driving past. In another video verified by AP, a passenger pleads with the driver, “Misha, we need to drive quickly as they’ll strike again.”
And Ukrainian authorities released details and photos of an attack Sunday on a military base in Okhtyrka, a city between Kharkiv and Kyiv, saying more than 70 Ukrainian soldiers were killed along with some local residents. The attack could not be immediately confirmed.
The Russian military's movements have been stalled by fierce resistance on the ground and a surprising inability to dominate Ukraine's airspace.
Ukrainians used resourcefulness to try to stop the Russian advance: On a highway between Odesa and Mykolaiv in southern Ukraine, residents piled tractor tires filled with sand and topped with sandbags to block Russian military convoys. In Kyiv, sandbags were heaped in front of doors and windows of City Hall.
In the face of that Ukrainian resistance and crippling Western sanctions, Putin has put Russia’s nuclear forces on high alert — including intercontinental ballistic missiles and long-range bombers — in a stark warning to the West and a signal of his readiness to escalate the tensions to a terrifying new level. But a senior U.S. defense official, speaking on condition of anonymity, said the United States had yet to see any appreciable change in Russia’s nuclear posture.
Video: Pentagon discusses nuclear war threat
Western nations have increased weapons shipments to Ukraine to help its forces defend themselves — but have so far ruled out sending in troops.
As far-reaching Western sanctions on Russian banks and other institutions took hold, the ruble plummeted, and Russia’s Central Bank scrambled to shore it up, as did Putin, signing a decree restricting foreign currency.
But that did little to calm Russian fears. In Moscow, people lined up to withdraw cash as the sanctions threatened to drive up prices and reduce the standard of living for millions of ordinary Russians.
The economic sanctions, ordered by the U.S. and other allies, were just one contributor to Russia's growing status as a pariah country.
Russian airliners are banned from European airspace, Russian media is restricted in some countries, and some high-tech products can no longer be exported to the country. International sports bodies moved to exclude Russian athletes — in the latest blow Tuesday, Russians were barred from international ice skating events.

International Boxing body to hold board meeting "with view to suspending" Russians & Belarusians
- Country:
- Switzerland
The International Boxing Association (IBA) on Tuesday said it would convene a meeting of its board of directors later this week ''with a view to suspending'' Russian and Belarusian boxers from competition owing to the invasion of Ukraine that has evoked worldwide condemnation.
The IBA said the move was necessitated by the International Olympic Committee's recent recommendation, calling on international federations to suspend Russia, which has invaded Ukraine and found support from Belarus.
''Following IOC recommendations regarding the participation of Russian and Belarusian athletes, and with a view to suspending these athletes from the competition, IBA has convened a meeting of the IBA Board of Directors,'' the IBA stated.
''The meeting will take place later this week,'' it added.
Incidentally, the IBA is headed by a Russian in Umar Kremlev, who has been at the helm of affairs since 2020 after winning the presidential elections of the body. The IBA is set to hold fresh elections by June this year. ''As previously confirmed, the IBA Board of Directors will also consider the status of the Global Boxing Cup, scheduled to take place in Russian cities in June of this year.'' Russia's invasion of Ukraine last week triggered global condemnation and the country is being suspended from international sporting events.
Most recently, Russian teams were suspended from all international football, including qualifying matches for the 2022 World Cup.
This was after the IOC Executive Board issued an ''urgent recommendation not to organize any sports event in Russia or Belarus.'' IOC EB also strongly urged International Sports Federations and organizers of events to ''do everything in their power to ensure that no athlete or sports official from Russia or Belarus be allowed to take part under the name of Russia or Belarus.''

- Lucid stock falls after the company reports earnings on Monday night.
- LCID stock down 13% in premarket on Tuesday as investors punished the earnings miss.
- Lucid earnings saw a miss on sales and cut its production numbers.
Lucid (LCID) stock is falling in the premarket on Tuesday after the company reported worse than expected earnings after the close on Monday. This earnings release was highly anticipated as the company is one of the most followed stocks by retail traders. Many had made their first trade in the investment world on Lucid (LCID) during the pandemic. Now many are finding out the hard way that trading is a long, tough game with a steep learning curve. This is not the place to get emotional or practice the "us vs. them" mentality. The only thing that matters in trading is consistent profitability. That is the score line in this game, nothing else.
Lucid Group Stock News
The numbers were a disappointment. Revenue and earnings per share came in behind estimates. EPS came in at -$0.64 versus -$0.35 expected. Revenue was $26.39 million versus the $36.74 estimate. While these are disappointing numbers, Lucid also cut its full-year production guidance for 2022. The company now expects to produce in the region of 12,000 to 14,000 vehicles in 2022. This is a huge reduction from earlier estimates for a production run of nearly 20,000 for 2022. That is not far from halving your estimate already, and 2022 has barely started.
The company stated: “We’re updating our outlook for 2022 production to a range of 12,000 to 14,000 vehicles. This reflects the extraordinary supply chain and logistics challenges we’ve encountered and our unrelenting focus on delivering the highest quality products. We remain confident in our ability to capture the tremendous opportunities ahead given our technology leadership and strong demand for our cars.”
Given the environment we are in from a macro perspective, this will lead to further selling pressure over the next quarter. The growth sector is unlikely to see any meaningful uptick until the geopolitical backdrop calms down. That will not be the end of it though as the inflationary environment remains. The backdrop of the Russia-Ukraine crisis will keep commodity prices elevated for longer, meaning central banks will have to raise interest rates. The dreaded scenario of stagflation is becoming more possible as the Russia-Ukraine situation escalates. All this means growth stocks and high-risk names will not see any meaningful bounce any time soon. This is not the time to be in names like Lucid (LCID) in our view.
Lucid Stock Forecast
We expect $25 to $22 to be the new range going forward with greater potential for a break below $22. This will then bring $16.13 into the target. Only breaking back above $25.61 gives bulls any chance, but this seems less likely now. A company with quarterly revenues of $26 million but with a market capitalization of $47 billion is a relic of 2021 now. 2022 is a different animal in investing terms, and traders need to come to terms with that.

LONDON (AP) — Roman Abramovich's attempt to shift the “stewardship and care” of Chelsea to the Premier League club's foundation has sparked the trustees to report the move to the British body overseeing charities.
The unexpected announcement from the Chelsea owner, which lacked full clarity, was issued on Saturday following calls for him to be targeted by British sanctions regarding Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and to sell the club.
The Charity Commission, which regulates the Chelsea Foundation, has received a “serious incident report” from its trustees amid concerns about how Abramovich's plan can be enacted.
The foundation's chairman is Bruce Buck, who has also chaired Chelsea for most of the 19 years the Russian oligarch has owned the west London club. Beyond women's team manager Emma Hayes and director of finance Paul Ramos, the trustees with more separation from the club are British Olympic Association chairman Hugh Robertson, lawyer John Devine and anti-discrimination leader Piara Powar, the executive director of the FARE network.
The Charity Commission is seeking further information from them about the running of the club and the foundation.
“We have contacted the charity seeking information," the commission said, "and, in line with our guidance, the charity has also made a report to the commission. We cannot comment further at this time.”
Abramovich has provided no indication that he is going to sell Chelsea, nor what exactly it means to be giving “stewardship and care” of the club to trustees who he said are "in the best position to look after the interests of the club, players, staff, and fans.”
The trustees have not publicly accepted Abramovich's plan. Chelsea itself has also issued no comment, beyond remarks from manager Thomas Tuchel that indicated little difference to the running of the club led by director Marina Granovskaia, a long-standing associate of Abramovich, and technical director Petr Cech, the former goalkeeper.
“They’re in charge of football and it’s my understanding they will stay in charge,” Tuchel said on Sunday. "So it will not change a lot for me.”
British Prime Minister Boris Johnson was challenged on Tuesday during a visit to Poland about Abramovich.
“You are talking about more sanctions prime minister," said Daria Kaleniuk, executive director of the Anti-Corruption Action Centre, a Ukrainian civil society organization, "but Roman Abramovich is not sanctioned, he’s in London, his children are not in the bombardments, his children are there in London.”
There was no specific response by Johnson.
Abramovich has yet to condemn Russian President Vladimir Putin for launching the invasion of Ukraine.
“Every right thinking person should denounce what Putin has done,” British Deputy Prime Minister Dominic Raab said when asked about Abramovich.

Saurabh Chaudhary wins gold in ISSF World Cup in Cairo
- Country:
- Egypt
Indian shooting ace Saurabh Chaudhary won the gold medal in the men's 10m air pistol event, opening the country's account in the year's first ISSF World Cup here on Tuesday. The Asian Games gold medallist shot 16 in the gold medal contest to finish ahead of Germany's Michael Schwald (6).
The bronze in the event was bagged by Tokyo Olympics silver medallist Artem Chernousov of Russia, whose country's flag was removed owing to its involvement in the ongoing conflict with Ukraine.
The 19-year Chaudhary , an Olympian who also has a Youth Olympic gold medal to his name, was third in the men's 10m air pistol qualification stage with a total of 584 points, making it through to the elimination as one of the top eight shooters.
This was Chaudhary's third individual ISSF World Cup gold and first in the new format, dominating Germany's Schwald in the final.
Chernousov topped the 92-strong qualification field with 591 points.
In the first semi-final where the first of four athletes are eliminated after 10 shots and the second after 15, Chaudhary made it to the medal round along with Chernousov for company as both notched up 38 points to eliminate Robin Walter of Germany first and then Emis Vasermanis of Latvia. In this round, the shooter with the highest single-shot score is awarded four points, while the others get three, two and one each respectively, as they move down the hierarchy. Points are split in case of a tie. This format continues till the medal round.
Schwald and Azerbaijan's Ruslan Lunev were the other two shooters to make it to the medal round from the second semi-final.
In the medal round where the bronze winner is determined and the top two make it through to the gold medal match, Chaudhary topped the four-man field after 15 shots with a score of 42.5 points. Schwald joined the Indian with 41.5 points while Chernousov had to be satisfied with bronze, finishing with 40. Lunev finished fourth, bowing out after 10 shots with a score of 21.
In the final, the winner of a single shot is awarded two points and the first to 16 points wins. In case of a tie, each shooter gets a point. Chaudhary needed just 11 single shots, including shots of 10.5, 10.8 and 10.6 in the last three of his four attempts to seal the deal in his favour.
Over 500 shooters from 60 nations are taking part in the Cairo World Cup which has 20 medal sets on offer. The day also has the women's 10m air pistol finals scheduled.
France, Italy and India currently atop the medals tally with one gold each.

Switzerland ditches neutrality to sanction Russia and Putin
Switzerland, a major hub for storing wealth that is popular with Russian oligarchs, is breaking with its tradition of neutrality to sanction Russia.
The Swiss government will adopt EU sanctions imposed following the invasion of Ukraine and immediately freeze any assets belonging to Russian President Vladimir Putin, Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin and Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov, it said in a statement Monday.
"We are in an extraordinary situation," President Ignazio Cassis told reporters on Monday, according to Reuters.
The country will close its airspace to flights from Russia and impose entry bans against a number of individuals who have a connection to Switzerland and are close to the Russian president, the government said.
"Russia's unprecedented military attack on a sovereign European country was the deciding factor in the Federal Council's decision to change its previous stance on sanctions," it added.
In a retaliatory move, Russia's air transport agency announced Tuesday that it had closed its airspace to Switzerland.
Switzerland had faced growing pressure to join other Western powers and impose sanctions on Russia.
European Commission spokesman Peter Stano said last week that the bloc expected Switzerland to "follow suit in standing up for defending the principles on which our communities and countries are based."
Switzerland has long sought to maintain neutrality, and the alpine country has hosted numerous peace talks and negotiations between geopolitical adversaries. It also has a banking industry that caters to many of the world's wealthiest people.

TEL AVIV, Israel (AP) — Israel’s Supreme Court on Tuesday ruled that a group of families slated for eviction from a flashpoint east Jerusalem neighborhood could remain in their homes for the time being.
The ruling could work to ease tensions in the neighborhood, which helped ignite the 11-day war between Israel and Hamas in Gaza last year.
The court ruled that the families could stay in their homes for now until Israel carried out a land arrangement, a process that could take years or may not be carried out at all, according to Ir Amim, an advocacy group that was not involved in the court case.
Dozens of Palestinian families in east Jerusalem are at risk of eviction by Jewish settler organizations, and thousands face the threat of demolition because of discriminatory policies that make it extremely difficult for Palestinians to build new homes or expand existing ones.
Other threatened evictions in Sheikh Jarrah and other neighborhoods, which are tied up in decades-old legal battles between Palestinian residents and Jewish settlers, set off protests and clashes last year that eventually helped ignite the Gaza war.
Israel captured east Jerusalem, along with the West Bank, in the 1967 Mideast war and annexed it in a move not recognized by most of the international community. Israel considers the entire city to be its capital, and the municipality says it is working to improve services for all residents.
The Palestinians want east Jerusalem to be the capital of their future state, and the city’s fate is one of the most divisive issues in the century-old Israeli-Palestinian conflict.

GBP/USD heals its wounds as bearish bias remains present [Video]
GBPUSD switched to a bullish mode after last week’s crash ceased at a two-month low of 1.3279. That said, the pair is still some way below February’s highs and downside risks keep lingering in the background as the MACD is strengthening its negative momentum below its zero and signal lines, and the RSI, although pushing for some recovery, is still comfortably dipped beneath its 50 neutral mark.
The 23.6% Fibonacci retracement of the 1.4248 – 1.3160 down leg continues to block upside movements for the third consecutive day at 1.3416, while within breathing distance, the (dashed) descending trendline, which has been acting both as support and resistance since mid-2021, will also be closely watched around 1.3450 in the coming sessions. If the bulls violate those boundaries, the rally could pick up steam towards the 38.2% Fibonacci and the broken supportive trendline, both around 1.3578, while slightly lower, the 20- and 50-day simple moving averages (SMAs) could be another hurdle. Yet, a tougher battle could take place somewhere between the 200-day SMA, which overlaps with the tentative descending trendline drawn from the 1.4248 top, and the 50% Fibonacci of 1.3700.

GBP/USD Forecast: Pound looks to extend recovery to 1.3500
GBP/USD has settled above 1.3400 early Tuesday after taking advantage of the improving market mood late Monday. The pair is facing technical resistance at 1.3440 and it could extend its recovery in the short term if that level is breached and repurposed as support.
Following the western nations' decision to ramp up sanctions against Russia over the weekend, delegations from Russia and Ukraine met on Monday. After the meeting, sides have agreed to sit down for the second round of "peace talks," easing worries over a prolonged war. The latest headlines suggest, however, that Russia continues to ramp up its military presence in Ukraine on Tuesday, allowing risk flows to continue to dominate financial markets for the time being.

GBP/USD to extend its recovery if the 1.3440 level turns into support
GBP/USD seems to have settled comfortably above 1.3400 early Tuesday. As FXStreet’s Eren Sengezer notes, cable looks to extend recovery to 1.3500.
“In case market participants are convinced of Russia's willingness to look for a diplomatic solution to the conflict, the pound could continue to gather strength against the relatively safer dollar. On the flip side, the greenback is likely to attract investors if there is a negative shift in risk sentiment.” Read more...

KKR skipper Shreyas Iyer wants to be 'players' captain'
Star batter Shreyas Iyer, who played a pivotal role in Indias 3-0 clean sweep of Sri Lanka in the recent ODI series, wants to be a players captain for his new IPL franchise Kolkata Knight Riders.This will be Shreyas second stint as captain as he had led Delhi Capitals from 2018 to 2020.I would be coming in with a much different mindset now.
- Country:
- India
Star batter Shreyas Iyer, who played a pivotal role in India's 3-0 clean sweep of Sri Lanka in the recent ODI series, wants to be a ''players' captain'' for his new IPL franchise Kolkata Knight Riders.
This will be Shreya's second stint as captain as he had led Delhi Capitals from 2018 to 2020.
''I would be coming in with a much different mindset now. I'm now more mature and experienced in terms of my decision making and captaincy skills,'' Shreyas, who scored 204 runs at a strike rate of 174 to be adjudged player-of-the-series against Sri Lanka, told KKR website.
''Personally, I feel that I'm a player's captain and I want to create an atmosphere where all of us are thinking towards one goal, which is winning.'' That KKR think-tank had identified Shreyas as captain was clear when they aggressively bid for the 27-year-old in the mega auction last month, making him the third most expensive player with a price tag of Rs 12.25 crore.
''Really waiting eagerly to work with every individual in the team, and build that synergy which could really help the team perform at a different level. I'm just going to love the responsibility, and I thrive under pressure,'' he said.
''You know, for me to be part of the KKR family is an enormous feeling. I want to really appreciate the work which has been done by all the great players in the past and I would like to follow the same footsteps, which they have created for KKR.'' The two-time former champions will begin their campaign against Chennai Super Kings in the IPL opener at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai on March 26.
Excited to be working with coach Brendon McCullum, he said: ''I feel is very aggressive. Even when you saw him playing for his country (New Zealand), he was someone who was very aggressive and he is kind of a risk taker.
''I absolutely love that. Obviously I've had few interactions with him after the auction. He's got that calm demeanour and I'm really looking forward to working with him, and to have some very successful seasons for KKR over the years.'' There was a bidding war for Shreyas with Royal Challengers Bangalore, Delhi Capitals, Lucknow Supergiants and Gujarat Titans too pitching in for the top-order batter.
Shreyas said he was nervous while watching the auction live with his India team-mates.
''I was trying to act relaxed, but you know, andar hi andar se, I was feeling a little nervous. Eventually KKR got me, that feeling was amazing. I'm really proud, considering the rich history and to be coming into the KKR setup,'' he concluded.

The latest developments on Texas' primary election:
___
AUSTIN, Texas — Polls are open in Texas for the nation's first primary of the 2022 midterm elections.
Voters on Tuesday are picking nominees for governor, congressional seats and more. The results in Texas will offer an early test of former President Donald Trump's continued strength in the GOP and whether Democrats can hold the line with Hispanic voters along the border.
It's also the first election under new Texas voting restrictions that have resulted in thousands of rejected mail ballots. Texas is among at least 18 states that will hold elections this year under tougher rules, some of which were driven by Trump's false claims of widespread fraud in 2020.
The biggest races include Republican Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton trying to keep his job while under the cloud of an FBI investigation. His challengers include George P. Bush, the Texas land commissioner and last member of his famous family who is still in office.
Republican Gov. Greg Abbott has spent months looking past the primary and campaigning against Democrat Beto O'Rourke, the former presidential candidate who is in line to lock up his party's nomination for governor.

- Rivian stock surged over 6% on Monday as EV stocks looked to Lucid as savior.
- Nasdaq: RIVN will collapse on Tuesday as reality sets in.
- Rivian shares still look way too high in our view.
Time for a continued dose of reality for EV investors as the market continues to gyrate nervously on geopolitical events. This is not the time to be dabbling in high-growth names with little to no profits. The geopolitical backdrop is challenging with various headlines emanating from the Russia-Ukraine crisis daily. However, no clear path out of conflict currently appears evident.
All this has ramped up the negative macroeconomic backdrop for equities. We entered 2022 knowing that central banks were going to struggle with inflation, and data in January confirmed this. We assumed robust economic growth in the major economies would allow the main central banks to raise rates without causing a recession. Bets on rate rises soared and global yields moved up sharply in the first two months of 2022. This hit growth stocks hard in early 2022.
Now though the Russia-Ukraine situation has given inflation a further boost but raised the possibility of a recession in Europe and also the US. The huge bull run in equities seen since the 1990s has been helped to a large extent by the huge boost from globalization. This resulted in lower costs and huge new markets from many companies. Global trade increased markedly.
Already we have seen efforts to reduce globalization from Trump tariffs to Brexit and now to worldwide sanctions. This is making equity investing more difficult and more specific. All this means growth stocks, the darling sector of 2021, are likely to suffer as 2022 progresses. Rivian as we know is a poster child of high growth stocks. It IPO'd in November in a blaze of publicity and quickly become one of the largest automakers in the world by market cap despite not having much of any production.
Rivian Stock News
Rivian (RIVN) stock reports its earnings next week on March 10 but peer Lucid (LCID) released its earnings after the close on Monday. These earnings were frankly terrible, missing on EPS and revenue while also slashing 2022 production numbers only two months into the year. As result, Lucid stocks have fallen sharply and are likely to fall more as the week progresses. Rivian and other EV names will get dragged lower as a result. For some reason, optimism was abounding yesterday as EV stocks rallied. Lucid closed up nearly 10% so the risk-reward was always skewed to the downside. We could see a fall of 20% today for Lucid if momentum picks up. Rivian will not be able to avoid contagion effects and will also likely suffer heavy losses on Tuesday.
See our coverage of Lucid earnings here.
Rivian Stock Forecast
Keep an eye on the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) and the Relative Strength Index (RSI) here. Both are in an uptrend but will likely correct today. This could be the signal for more losses. The rally in the RSI failed to even get above 50, showing how weak Rivian stock's momentum is. Only if Rivian breaks $71 do we see any chance, but the risk-reward is firm to the downside. Any positive news regarding Russia and Ukraine would see a violent reaction, but this is likely to be short-lived. The macro environment is getting even more challenging as mentioned.

The latest developments on Texas' primary election:
___
AUSTIN, Texas — Polls are open in Texas for the nation's first primary of the 2022 midterm elections.
Voters on Tuesday are picking nominees for governor, congressional seats and more. The results in Texas will offer an early test of former President Donald Trump's continued strength in the GOP and whether Democrats can hold the line with Hispanic voters along the border.
It's also the first election under new Texas voting restrictions that have resulted in thousands of rejected mail ballots. Texas is among at least 18 states that will hold elections this year under tougher rules, some of which were driven by Trump's false claims of widespread fraud in 2020.
The biggest races include Republican Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton trying to keep his job while under the cloud of an FBI investigation. His challengers include George P. Bush, the Texas land commissioner and last member of his famous family who is still in office.
Republican Gov. Greg Abbott has spent months looking past the primary and campaigning against Democrat Beto O'Rourke, the former presidential candidate who is in line to lock up his party's nomination for governor.

Among the different ways to trick yourself into saving, money-saving challenges are some of the most engaging.
They can help you feel connected to finances by requiring frequent check-ins and debunking feelings of inadequacy when it comes to saving. For Cristina Brown, a self-described savings-challenge designer and founder of the blog Happy Savings Co, money-saving challenges helped her go from spending to saving.
“I recognized the need to save money, and I thought that this would be a good way to kind of gamify it,” Brown says.
If saving for tomorrow seems out of reach, the right money challenge can generate excitement, push competitive buttons and potentially increase savings.
VIRAL CHALLENGES THAT CAN ADD UP
Before starting a savings challenge, review your budget to trim unnecessary expenses. The amount of breathing room in your budget will determine the level of difficulty that’s possible for a challenge.
Assigning a goal to a challenge may also keep you motivated and consistent, whether it be saving for an emergency fund, a vacation or something else.
A few popular challenges to consider include:
— Keep the change challenges: Beginner-friendly $1 and $5 savings challenges allow for passive saving, which takes less effort and adopts an out-of-sight approach. For a designated amount of time, both challenges involve putting aside denominations of these bills that are left over from cash transactions.
Ezekiel Waisel, a certified financial planner at SHP Financial, a financial planning firm , tried the $5 challenge in 2016 and saved about $300 in a year for a round-trip flight. “I don’t use a lot of cash, so the fact that I even saved that much was pretty surprising to me,” he says.
— The 52-week challenge : This challenge hikes up the savings by $1 weekly and requires you to actively save by budgeting for each week. In the first week you save $1, in the second week $2, and so on until the 52nd week. The challenge can also be reversed to start saving $52 in the first week and work downward, as is Brown’s preference in 2022. Either way, the challenge can save $1,378 in a year, enough to cover an emergency or a large purchase.
“At the end of the year with holidays — even with all of our best efforts of setting up sinking funds for the holidays and stuff like that — things can still get pretty tight, so I reversed the order to save the bigger amounts at the beginning of the year,” says Brown. A sinking fund holds money that’s earmarked for a specific goal or expense.
— The 100 envelope challenge: This potentially lucrative and difficult money-saving challenge requires numbering 100 envelopes from one to 100, shuffling them and drawing one randomly every day. The number on the envelope drawn determines the amount of cash that must be saved. Drawing high numbers consecutively can prove difficult, so this challenge is ideal for those with more cash flow. If completed, it saves up to $5,050, but don’t hold money in envelopes too long. Keep it safe by designating a day every other week or monthly to deposit savings into a high-interest bank account.
— The weather Wednesday challenge : For thrill-seekers with enough cash flow, this challenge can offer big savings with less predictability. On every Wednesday, for a year, save cash or make a deposit into a savings account based on the temperature in your city. If it’s 50 degrees, for instance, save $50. The challenge gets harder as it gets warmer, so it’s best to start in the winter when it’s more manageable.
— No spend challenge: It’s as straightforward as it sounds: You commit to only spend on essentials over a certain period to save big. Some people even clean out their pantries to lower their grocery bills. The level of difficulty is subjective for this challenge, but it’s likely more sustainable over a short term.
— Customize your own challenge: Modify a popular challenge to fit your needs by shortening or extending deadlines or the cadence of saving. For instance, you could stretch the 100 envelope challenge over 100 weeks (about 2 years) instead of days, if that’s more achievable. Brown also creates her own challenges. In one such challenge, she seeks discounts at the grocery store to stash savings for future goals. She says she saved a total of $3,560.58 in 2021 by juggling multiple challenges each month.
LEARN WHAT MOTIVATES YOU
Mastering a savings challenge involves understanding your motivations. Consider whether you’re motivated by big or small deposits, randomness or predictability, cash or electronic deposits, or active versus passive saving. If you’re unsure, try a few money-saving challenges to learn what works. Passive savings challenges like keep the change can lay a solid foundation for bigger challenges and savings.
“I think passive is a great starting point, and once you get comfortable and consistent with passive saving, you can then add or switch to an active savings model,” Waisel says.
Finding the right challenge may require trial and error, but even as you experiment you’ll likely save money in the process.

Cricket-England's Roy pulls out of IPL
Roy, who was set to play for newly-formed franchise Gujarat Titans, played in the Pakistan Super League in February and finished the tournament as the top run-scorer for Quetta Gladiators despite playing just six matches. The 31-year-old, who had a child in January, added that he was hoping to spend some time with his family.
England opener Jason Roy announced his withdrawal from the Indian Premier League (IPL) on Tuesday, saying global events in the past three years had taken their toll on him. Roy, who was set to play for newly-formed franchise Gujarat Titans, played in the Pakistan Super League in February and finished the tournament as the top run-scorer for Quetta Gladiators despite playing just six matches.
The 31-year-old, who had a child in January, added that he was hoping to spend some time with his family. "It's with a heavy heart I have decided to pull out of this year's tournament," Roy wrote on social media. "With everything going on in the world over the last three years it's added up and taken its toll on me.
"I feel it's only right I spend some quality time with my family. As well as spending time working on myself and my game over the next couple of months leading into a very busy year." The 10-team IPL will begin play in the last week of March, with the final scheduled for May 29.

The Russian Defense Minister on Tuesday said that forces will strike Ukraine security service sites in Kyiv, with such strikes aimed at avoiding information attacks against Russia, reported Russia state-run media.
Market Reaction
Updates as to the fighting in Ukraine continue to concern investors, with Russia evidently making good progress in the south of the country and continuing to amass troops near Kyiv. According to reports earlier in the session, the convoy of Russian military vehicles heading towards Kyiv had grown to 40 miles long and Belarusian troops are also reported to have entered Ukraine. All the while, unsurprisingly, the rhetoric between Russia/NATO continues to escalate in hostility.

Ukraine’s 20 athletes for the Winter Paralympics are expected to be in Beijing in time for Friday’s opening ceremony, IPC spokesman Craig Spence told The Associated Press on Tuesday.
Spence said the team was heading for the Chinese capital and could arrive as soon as Wednesday.
The arrival had been in doubt after Russia invaded Ukraine last week. The International Paralympic Committee board is to meet Wednesday and could put further sanctions on Russian athletes or expel them from the Paralympics.
Russian athletes are set to compete in Beijing as RPC, short for Russian Paralympic Committee, in fallout from a state-sponsored doping scandal and coverup dating to the 2014 Sochi Olympics.
Belarus is also expected to sanctioned by the IPC board for its part in the war. Belarusians could be forced to compete as neutral athletes in Beijing, as could Russia.
Russian athletes in last month's Winter Olympics competed as ROC, short for Russian Olympic Committee, because of the doping scandal.
The International Olympic Committee, which has repeatedly failed to forcefully punish Russia for its doping history, on Monday pushed dozens of sports governing bodies to exclude Russian athletes and officials from international events.
The IOC, which left the decision to others, said this action was needed to "protect the integrity of global sports competitions and for the safety of all the participants.”
The IOC also gave sports bodies a way around expulsion.
“Whenever this is not possible on short notice for organizational or legal reasons, the IOC ... strongly urges international sports federations and organizers of sports events worldwide to do everything in their power to ensure that no athlete or sports official from Russia or Belarus be allowed to take part under the name of Russia or Belarus,” the IOC said.
Russia is expected to have 71 athletes entered in the Paralympics. About 650 athletes from 49 delegations, including Ukraine, are expected for the Games.
The Winter Olympics in Beijing drew 2,900 athletes from 91 delegations. It closed on Feb. 20. The Paralympics end on March 13.
