When Ettienne heard about the fire, he went downstairs for a moment. Then the woman went back upstairs to try to wake Jacobs, who was asleep. Neither Jacobs nor Ettienne were able to flee as the structure caught fire, Katz stated in her testimony.

World Chess Championship: ‘Mistake after Mistake’ – how ex-world champions described level of play in Ding Liren-Gukesh clash
The match between Ding Liren, the current FIDE world chess champion, and D Gukesh, the challenger, got underway quickly. The Chinese grandmaster won the first game before letting his opponent tie the score in the third. After three straight draws, both players are tied with three points apiece going into Tuesday's Game 7.However, the caliber of play in the title matchup thus far has left former world champions Magnus Carlsen and Vladimir Kramnik feeling let down.To be honest, I am somewhat dissatisfied with today's game (Game 6). Even Game 5 wasn't very good, but today's play was incredibly poor from both players, especially for a professional. During his analysis of game 6 on his YouTube channel, former world champion Kramnik blasted, "It's a very disappointing level.""This game is really weird. Both players were making strategic errors one after the other. As though they don't understand the role. I may be outdated, but it's quite simple! They're excellent calculators and players, of course. They have amazing math skills. However, I anticipate a world championship match to be a little more, like an exchange of ideas! Human ideas, human play! I would much prefer watch a chess engines world championship if I wanted to appreciate chess as merely a computation game!

Election Commission ruling by the Supreme Court: When judicial activism shapes the law
By adopting the Constituent Assembly's mantle in its March 2, 2023, ruling, the Supreme Court of India essentially rewrote some of the Constitution's clauses. The Court mandated that revised guidelines for the Election Commissioner's appointment be adhered to.According to these regulations, a committee made up of the Prime Minister, the Leader of the Opposition, and the Chief Justice of India must advise the appointment of the Election Commissioner. The Court defended this by saying that these regulations are necessary to address the "lacuna" in the laws governing this topic. However, it is clear that the Court has acted in flagrant contempt of the doctrine of the separation of powers if we examine the Court's reasoning and the laws pertaining to the appointment of Election Commissioners in greater detail.The Constitution itself, which aimed to create three institutional organs—the legislature, executive branch, and judiciary—is the source of the theory of separation of powers. The Constitution also outlined the roles of these three branches, with the legislature enacting laws, the executive branch enforcing them, and the judiciary rendering decisions. But the same Court that once acknowledged this theory as a component of the Constitution's "basic structure" has now reversed it.

Despite having a small pool of talent, the nation manages to maximize its resources through careful funding, strategic planning, and first-rate coaching.According to a comedian in a tourist film with former prime minister Jacinda Ardern, it's like a worm in the Tasman Sea or a half-eaten mutton chop in the Pacific. The nation where the Lord of the Rings trilogy was filmed, and the creators of the egg beater. New Zealand may surprise and confound.There are five million people living in this nation, which has an area of one lakh square miles. Its area is about the same as Uttar Pradesh's, and its population is one-fourth that of Mumbai.However, for many years, their stature and power have not stopped them from succeeding in sports. Its cricket team sent India, a nation of 148 million people, as head coach Gautam Gambhir often claims, to its first series defeat at home on Sunday. It had already defeated them to win the mace for the World Test Championship. New Zealand is the side with the most semi-final appearances in 50-over World Cups. All of them have one lakh registered cricket players in their talent pool. There are four times as many in England, Australia, and India.This is a quintessential example of athletic uniqueness. Or "New Zealand doing New Zealand things," as Daryll Mitchell phrased it. The county's level of achievement in many sports is drastically out of proportion to its population.

In their depressing Bengaluru opening against New Zealand, India reached a new low in Test cricket.
On Day 2 of the first Test match against New Zealand on Thursday, the Indian squad reached its lowest point under the cloudy circumstances of Bengaluru.

Ravichandran Ashwin was removed for a golden duck on the opening ball of the second session, leaving India with five ducks overall.aAn thrilling battle between bat and ball resulted from the scorching deliveries of New Zealand pacers, which continued to worry the Indian batters after captain Rohit Sharma left cheaply. By removing more bounce from the surface, ORourke stunned Kohli and silenced the fans at M. Chinnaswamy Stadium. Glenn Phillips came flying from leg gully to make a spectacular catch after the Indian stalwart gloved the ball to him despite his best efforts to defend it off his toes. This was Kohli's first duck in 32 innings; his previous duck occurred at Wankhede in 2021 against the same opponents.Sarfaraz used the bottom edge of his bat to smack the ball as he finally had his chance. At extra cover, Devon Conway jumped to his right to finish a spectacular catch. KL When Rahul arrived, ORourke welcomed him by slamming the ball into his glove. ORourke returned in his subsequent over to reap the benefits of his labors, having frightened Rahul. Rahul made a mistake and sent the ball down to Blundell's left, becoming India's third duck in a desperate attempt to score. After a missed shot, Ravindra Jadeja quickly came in as the fourth.India's tail attempted, but was unable, to withstand having five ducks on the scoreboard. In the end, India lost for 46.

Japan, Germany, and Ireland will become top study abroad destinations as Canada, the UK, and Australia tighten their visa regulations.
These new travel destinations offer a variety of educational choices, easy immigration procedures, and appealing post-study employment opportunities. As a result, Indian students have access to more options for global employment.For a number of reasons, prospective students are now expanding their study abroad options, even if the major four nations—Canada, the United Kingdom, the United States, and Australia—remain the top choices for foreign students, including Indians. Stricter visa requirements have resulted in a discernible drop in Indian students' enrollment in these nations.However, why have these nations restricted overseas students' access to visas? The UK continues to struggle with post-Brexit problems, including as economic difficulties and unfavorable attitudes toward immigrants. One major factor contributing to a potential drop in UK popularity is the rise in tuition fees, which is affected by government financing and institution rules. The country has become less appealing due to stringent visa regulations and rising living expenses.Canada has long been a welcoming country for immigrants. The number of Indian students in Canada increased by 182% between 2016 and 2019, according to data from the NFAP, which analyzes data on international students. However, Indian students now face a challenge as a result of the current strained diplomatic relations. Lack of housing and employment possibilities, as well as growing antipathy toward Indian students, are further factors contributing to the problems. "Canada is experiencing a crisis on nearly all fronts, particularly in the areas of employment and housing. Additionally, animosity toward overseas students is on the rise. As a result, the number of student visas issued this year has drastically decreased, according to Bhargav Modi, EduGo Abroad's commercial director. Other reports have also anticipated a similar drop. Just over 2.31 lakh new study licenses will be issued by the end of 2024, a significant drop from the 4.36 lakh granted in 2023, according to ed-tech startup ApplyBoard.Despite changes in the cost of living and job prospects, the US remains a popular destination for Indian students, with over 2.50 lakh presently enrolled at US universities, according to Manisha Zaveri, joint managing director of Career Mosaic consultancy. This is in contrast to the UK, Australia, and Canada, which are forecasting a decline in the number of Indian students. The IIE Open Door Report states that there were 1,057,188 international students overall in 2022 and 2023, a 12% increase.According to University Living's founder and CEO, Saurabh Arora, the situation is ideal for Indians looking to expand their study abroad options. "New opportunities that may have previously gone unnoticed are presented by emerging study destinations and alternative pathways, which are becoming more accessible," Arora stated.

Regardless of the president, Canada must deal with a more protectionist United States: former envoy
"No matter who wins the election in November, Canada needs to get ready for a more isolationist and protectionist U.S., according to the country's ambassador to the United States for the majority of Donald Trump's administration. David MacNaughton stated in an interview with Global News, ""What you've got down there is a challenging situation where we need to be able to demonstrate to them that we are a reliable, good friend and good partner."" ""The last time, we spent a lot of time demonstrating to them our importance from an economic standpoint.""Trump defeated Nikki Haley in the Republican New Hampshire primary Tuesday night with 54 per cent of the vote, putting him one step closer to securing the GOP nomination. Trump, according to Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, adds a level of ""unpredictability"" to ties with the United States." No matter who wins in November, MacNaughton emphasized how crucial it is for Canada to sell its economic friendship by offering to supply vital minerals and hydroelectricity, but more importantly, by sharing how it can work with the United States on priorities. "I believe that this time, even more importantly, is going to be to assist them with some of the things that they're most concerned about, which include drugs entering the country, illegal immigration, and possible terrorism," MacNaughton remarked.A Jan. 15 Angus Reid poll indicates that 53% of Canadians believe a Biden win would be better for the country's economy, while only 18% believe a Trump win would be advantageous. In anticipation of the upcoming American administration, Trudeau declared that he had assigned current Ambassador Kirsten Hillman, Industry Minister Francois-Philippe Champagne, and Trade Minister Mary Ng to spearhead a "Team Canada" strategy in their dealings with the United States. According to MacNaughton, Canada frequently brings up a list of demands during these talks, but it frequently pays little attention to our largest trading partner. It resembles spending all of your time talking about yourself while out on a date. Most likely, it will be your one and only."Although you can't always meet everyone's needs, you should consider what they need and see what we can do to meet it."

In the midst of a political dispute, minister says 86% of Indian students avoid Canada.
Ottawa: A senior Canadian official told Reuters that fewer Indian students applied as a result of a diplomatic dispute over the death of a Khalistani terrorist in Canada, and that the number of study permits Canada granted to Indian students fell precipitously late last year after India expelled Canadian diplomats who would process the permits. In an interview, Immigration Minister Marc Miller stated that he thinks it is unlikely that the number of study permits issued to Indians will increase anytime soon. After Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau claimed in June that there was evidence linking Indian agents to the murder of Khalistani terrorist Hardeep Singh Nijjar in British Columbia, diplomatic tensions broke out. According to Miller, the tensions will probably continue to affect the numbers in the future.We can no longer process as many applications from India because of our relationship with that country," Miller said. On directives from New Delhi, Canada was compelled to remove 41 diplomats, or two-thirds of its workforce, from India in October. Furthermore, a minister's spokeswoman stated that the disagreement has led Indian students to look into studying abroad. According to official data that have not been previously released, these factors caused an 86% decrease in the number of study permits granted to Indians in the fourth quarter of last year compared to the previous quarter, from 108,940 to 14,910.

Reuters, Beijing, October 16 At a meeting with his neighbors on the sidelines of a Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) summit on Wednesday, China's Premier Li Qiang suggested further three-way relations with Russia and Mongolia, according to official media.In recent years, the three have become closer. This year, China and Mongolia both threw open their arms to Russian President Vladimir Putin, just as Moscow did for China's Xi Jinping in 2023, and Beijing did the same for Mongolia's president.According to the official news agency Xinhua, Li, China's second-ranking official, stated that "China is ready to work with Russia and Mongolia to further enhance mutual trust, strengthen coordination and promote deeper... trilateral co-operation."He was addressing L. Oyun-Erdene, the prime minister of Mongolia, and Mikhail Mishustin, the prime minister of Russia.Since 2004, Mongolia has opted to remain an observer state and is not a member of the SCO, a China-led Eurasian security bloc. Nevertheless, China is still gently pressuring its smaller neighbor to join the ten-nation bloc. Officials from the United States are also pursuing the resource-rich, landlocked nation, which has pledged to invest in its heavy industry and mining. However, Washington criticized Ulaanbaatar for hosting Putin in September despite the International Criminal Court in The Hague issuing an arrest order for him. If the Russian president enters any of the 124 nations that make up the court's membership, including Mongolia, he is often required by such a warrant to be arrested and taken to the Hague for trial.A large pipeline that Russia intends to construct to transport 50 billion cubic meters of natural gas annually from the Yamal area to China passes through Mongolia.

May 9, Washington, D.C./San Francisco (Reuters) - As early as next week, U.S. President Joe Biden is expected to unveil further tariffs on China that would target vital industries and include a significant increase in taxes on electric vehicles (EVs), according to three sources with direct knowledge of the situation.One of the persons said that the entire statement, which is anticipated on Tuesday, will uphold the current tariffs that former President Donald Trump imposed on a variety of Chinese imports.However, one of the persons said that in addition to raising EV taxes, it will also impose new levies on semiconductors and solar equipment. Additional duties are imposed on Chinese-made medical items, such as syringes and personal protective equipment, sources told Reuters.One of the persons stated that the Biden administration has targeted specific industries in its revision of the so-called "Section 301 tariffs," citing them as areas of critical competitiveness and national security. The eagerly awaited tariff update follows some MPs' demands for steep increases in levies on Chinese automobiles. Currently, imports of light-duty automobiles manufactured in China are rather rare.According to persons familiar with the situation, the Wall Street Journal stated that under the new Biden plan, tariffs on Chinese electric vehicles would nearly treble. Sherrod Brown, the chairman of the Senate Banking Committee, is worried that Chinese EVs could compromise the privacy of American citizens and wants the Biden administration to outright ban them.The office of the U.S. Trade Representative submitted suggestions to the White House some weeks ago, but internal debates have caused a delay in the official release, according to sources.

Entering your 30s Here are some exercises to keep you feeling your best
"Through the implementation of five fundamental exercises, you may counteract the inevitable changes that accompany your 30s and welcome a decade of vigor, strength, and wellbeing. It's common to view reaching your 30s as a turning point in both your physical and mental well-being. Subtle changes can occur in your body's metabolism, hormone levels, and general fitness, even though you might not notice them right away. But do not worry! In your 30s and beyond, exercise can be your hidden weapon for maintaining strength, health, and a positive self-image. The importance of exercising in your 30s. According to national-level bodybuilder and personal trainer Rahul Tarfe, men's testosterone levels tend to drop as they approach their 30s. Loss of muscle and a decrease in bone density may result from this. Work out works as a superhero here, increasing testosterone, strengthening bone density, and even serving as a tool to prevent aging,"" he said in a conversation with IndianExpress.com. Estrogen levels drop during menopause in women, which affects bone density and raises the risk of several malignancies. According to Tarfe, exercise is your knight in shining armor since it increases metabolism, strengthens bones, and keeps you feeling young and energized. Three must-try exercises It's important to include a well-rounded training regimen in your fitness regimen, regardless of gender. This is what Rahul suggested: 1. Cardio: Aim for 150 minutes or more per week of moderate to strenuous cardio exercise. Walking quickly, jogging, swimming, dancing, or any other activity that raises your heart rate and keeps you moving for 30 minutes, at least twice or three times a week, could be included in this. 2. Strength Training: Set aside three to four days a week for 45 to 60 minutes a session of strength training. This enhances bone density, promotes the growth and maintenance of muscle mass, and supports general strength and function. Weightlifting exercises, lunges, push-ups, rows, and squats are excellent choices. 3. Flexibility: Remember to take a break! After every workout, stretching for ten minutes increases range of motion, lessens discomfort in the muscles, and guards against injury. The secret is to be consistent! Maintaining a regular exercise schedule will improve your health and wellbeing, even if it's only for 30 minutes a few times a week. Seek individual advice from a physician or skilled fitness professional, and be sure you're utilizing correct form to prevent harm. "

World Chess Championship: ‘Mistake after Mistake’ – how ex-world champions described level of play in Ding Liren-Gukesh clash
The match between Ding Liren, the current FIDE world chess champion, and D Gukesh, the challenger, got underway quickly. The Chinese grandmaster won the first game before letting his opponent tie the score in the third. After three straight draws, both players are tied with three points apiece going into Tuesday's Game 7.However, the caliber of play in the title matchup thus far has left former world champions Magnus Carlsen and Vladimir Kramnik feeling let down.To be honest, I am somewhat dissatisfied with today's game (Game 6). Even Game 5 wasn't very good, but today's play was incredibly poor from both players, especially for a professional. During his analysis of game 6 on his YouTube channel, former world champion Kramnik blasted, "It's a very disappointing level.""This game is really weird. Both players were making strategic errors one after the other. As though they don't understand the role. I may be outdated, but it's quite simple! They're excellent calculators and players, of course. They have amazing math skills. However, I anticipate a world championship match to be a little more, like an exchange of ideas! Human ideas, human play! I would much prefer watch a chess engines world championship if I wanted to appreciate chess as merely a computation game!

Pakistani government drags on, Imran Khans party names its PM candidate
Imran Khan's jailed leader has nominated Omar Ayub Khan as a candidate in a parliamentary vote to choose a new prime minister after last week's national elections, according to a senior aide to the former prime minister of Pakistan. Although no candidate emerged with a clear majority from the polls, Khan's independent candidates secured 92 of the 264 seats, making them the largest group. As a result of Khan ruling out coalitions with the three biggest parties, his candidate does not currently have enough support to form a government.After meeting with the former prime minister in jail, Asad Qaiser, a senior leader of Imran Khan's Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaaf (PTI) party, informed reporters, "Omar Ayub will be our candidate for the prime minister election; he has been nominated by Imran Khan. Qaiser stated that PTI would talk to other parties about endorsing Ayub's candidacy. A coalition to establish a minority government has already been announced by Khan's opponents. Because they were technically prohibited by the election commission from participating in the polls under the electoral symbol of Khan's party, Khan's supporters filed as independents.Millions of Khan's fans turned out to vote for him in spite of the ban and his incarceration for convictions stemming from charges of corruption to state secrets leakage. Khan is prohibited from serving in any government while he is incarcerated. Ayub is presently in hiding and is wanted by law enforcement for a number of reasons, including possible involvement in the rioting that followed Imran Khan's arrest. Despite not participating in the campaign, he ran for office and was elected. He had previously belonged to both the ruling party of Gen. Pervez Musharraf, the former head of the military, and the party of Khan's principal opponent, Nawaz Sharif. The first military dictator of Pakistan, Ayub Khan, is the grandson of Ayub.

Pakistani Caretaker PMs View On Candidates Supported by Imran Khan
Anwaar-ul-Haq Kakar, Pakistan's acting prime minister, stated on Monday that the only reason independents, who were supported by imprisoned former prime minister Imran Khan, became the single largest party in the general elections was because his administration gave "a level playing field" to all political parties. Prior to Thursday's election, Mr. Khan and his Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaaf party had made repeated claims that the ruling elite and the interim administration were not treating all political parties equally and that certain parties and their leaders were receiving special treatment.The results of the National Assembly showed that the PTI-backed independents won 101 seats, the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N), led by another former prime minister Nawaz Sharif, won 75 seats, the Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP), led by former foreign minister Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari, won 54 seats, and the MQM-P, in addition to others, won eight seats.The state-run news agency Associated Press of Pakistan (APP) cited Mr. Kakar as saying, "A large number of independent candidates backed by the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf emerged as the largest single group on the national and provincial assemblies."Mr. Kakar emphasized that social media was the source of claims of electoral tampering, which were false and at odds with the actual situation. He also stated that "people had always questioned the electoral process throughout the country's democratic history." He emphasised, "Such results indicated the transparency and non-interference by any quarters," during a press conference at PM House.While acknowledging the possibility of flaws or other minor issues, Mr. Kakar said that "in general, the elections were conducted in a way that the entire nation and the law enforcement agencies deserved commendation despite various security challenges." asserting that the PTI achieved outcomes "the party never dreamt of during 2018," he stated, "The loyalists of jailed PTI leaders emerged as returned candidates in the general elections, but no one is appreciating that aspect of the neutrality of the caretaker government." Mr. Kakar asserted in response to a question that more than 60 million people exercised their constitutional right to choose their preferred candidates in "a pressure-free environment." "The elections in Pakistan were held in a free and fair manner and there was no institutional mechanism to favour any group," Mr. Kakar stated.

Russia Is A Power With A Vast Statecraft Tradition
Speaking on Friday, External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar discussed current geopolitical developments and their implications. He said that Russia is a power with a rich tradition of statecraft and is turning more towards Asia or non-West parts of the world. Responding to a query regarding Moscow's increasing closeness to Beijing during an interactive session at the Raisina Dialogue, S. Jaishankar stated that it makes sense to offer Russia a variety of options and that pressuring it into choosing one and criticizing it for it would be akin to a self-fulfilling prophecy."I believe that offering Russia a variety of options makes sense. "You are creating a self-fulfilling prophecy if we force Russia into a single option and declare that's really bad because that's the outcome," the speaker stated.These days, it's critical that other nations, particularly those in Asia, communicate with Russia," Mr. Jaishankar stated. "Russia is a powerful nation with a long history of statecraft. Such powers would never enter into a monogamous relationship of that kind. It would not align with their beliefs," he remarked. he external affairs minister was asked to comment on intensification of ties between Russia and China and whether India was uncomfortable with it.The minister of external affairs proposed that Russia and China are becoming closer due to Western policies.

New CNN head says network needs to recapture ‘swagger and innovation’
We’re committed to keeping our quality reporting open. By registering and providing us with insight into your preferences, you’re helping us to engage with you more deeply, and that allows us to keep our journalism free for all. You’ll always be able to control your own. CNN’s new chief executive says the company needs to recapture the “swagger and innovation” of its early days – and that, he says, increasingly means embracing a future outside of television. Mark Thompson, appointed CNN’s chief executive last fall after stints at the New York Times and the BBC, outlined a strategy to his staff on Wednesday that included a corporate restructuring but few external specifics on how that transformation will take place.Once a “scrappy outsider”, CNN has been slow to respond to the reality of its primary television business shrinking, Thompson said in his memo.“There’s currently too little innovation and risk-taking,” Thompson said in the memo. “Like so many other news players with a broadcast heritage, CNN’s linear services and even its website can sometimes have an old-fashioned and unadventurous feel as if the world has changed and they haven’t.” CNN needs to follow the audience, and smartphones are where most people under 40 first turn for news, he said.To change the thinking, Thompson said the current national, international and digital teams need to be combined into one unit, under the leadership of Virginia Moseley as executive editor. Mike McCarthy will become CNN’s managing editor.Atlanta-based CNN is also hiring Alex MacCallum, currently chief revenue officer at the Washington Post, as an executive in charge of digital projects and services.That’s where Thompson, known for establishing the digital subscription service that transformed the Times as a business the past decade, will look for sustained revenue at CNN. It’s not clear whether this will mean a paid subscription service or other products. In the past, CNN hasn’t always “gone the extra mile to squeeze every bit of value from the outstanding news and other intellectual property we create”, he wrote. “No longer.” He said the CNN.com website needs “drastic modernization. .The network also needs multiple digital projects to complement the CNN Max streaming service, he said.With cord-cutting, the audience for cable television in the US has fallen by one-fifth in the past two years, he said. CNN’s full-day ratings averaged 479,000 in 2023, down 15% from a year earlier. Fox News Channel’s 1.22 million was down 18% and MSNBC’s 780,000 was up 6%, according to the Nielsen company. Thompson said CNN’s television personalities must find multi-platform audiences, and praised Anderson Cooper’s All There Is podcast about grief.

New Worker Classification Rule Could Disrupt the US Gig Economy
Uber drivers and other gig economy workers could be legally classified as employees under a new Department of Labor rule that goes into effect in March. The new rule already faces at least one lawsuit, filed by freelance writers who want to remain "independent contractors" rather than employees. Employees are entitled to overtime pay, minimum wage, and other benefits not available to contractors.While people who work as contractors value the flexibility, employment law experts say there's no reason employers couldn't offer flexible hours alongside employee status and the benefits that go along with it. App-based ride-sharing services such as Uber (UBER) and Lyft (LYFT) earned the title of “disruptors” for the way they drove traditional cab companies out of business. Now, they’re trying to fend off the disruption that could be coming for them, in the form of a new federal labor rule. A new regulation on worker classification released this month is already facing at least one legal challenge, and will likely see more pushback from gig economy companies whose business model it threatens. The new law could turn the gig economy upside down, and affect many of the estimated 22.1 million Americans who work as independent contractors, employment experts say. Earlier this month, the Department of Labor released details on a rule setting standards on when a worker counts as an employee as opposed to an independent contractor, entitling them to overtime pay, unemployment insurance, and a slew of other benefits under the law. The new rule, first proposed in 2022, is set to go into effect in March.This week, a group of freelancers, including three New Jersey-based writers, sued the Department of Labor to overturn the new rule. At least one major business lobbying group is also considering legal action. Should the government give “employee” status to workers currently classified as contractors, it would threaten the business models of companies such as Uber, Lyft, and Doordash (DASH), whose contract workers cost their employers much less than traditional employees would.Uber and the Flex Association—a trade group representing gig economy companies—both released statements last week saying that the rule would have no immediate impact on their businesses. “This rule does not materially change the law under which we operate, and will not impact the classification of the over one million Americans who turn to Uber to earn money flexibly,” Uber’s statement reads.

Indian player sent to London for treatment; uncertain for Englands fifth test
Star batsman for the Indian cricket team, KL Rahul, has been sidelined by injury for the last three Test matches in the current series against England. Cricbuzz reports that he may miss the final match in Dharamsala. According to the report, Rahul's quadriceps injury from the first Test is still bothering him, so the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) sent him to London to get an expert opinion. Although Rahul was supposedly "90%" cleared to play in the third Test match, the National Cricket Academy (NCA) and team management made the decision to reevaluate the matter. Rahul was included in the India team for the series' final three games, but his availability will depend on how well he recovers. The five-match series is already 3-1 in favour of India, so the selectors might decide to give him more time to heal in anticipation of the T20 World Cup.On Monday, former captain Nasser Hussain stated that India's team, led by Rohit Sharma, deserved to win the Test series because of their superior skill set and mental toughness, and that England should not feel guilty about their defeat. After India defeated England by five wickets in the fourth and penultimate Test in Ranchi to take an unassailable 3-1 lead in the five-match series, England suffered their first Test series defeat of the 'Bazball' era. "India deserve credit for the way they've played throughout the series, they have been without some star names...Virat Kohli, Jasprit Bumrah in this one, Mohammed Shami, KL Rahul for most of the series and Rishabh Pant," Hussain said on Sky Sports."India has a long list of missing persons, but they continue to produce impressive performances. You have to give India credit for their mental toughness in winning another home series in addition to their skill."Their performance at home is simply outstanding.

The final nominee will serve as the head of the bloc's diplomacy. The three finalists will occupy prominent roles at the European Commission, the EU's strong executive department, and the European Council, the body that represents the 27 member nations. The Associated Press examines their background and scope of work.The powerful European Commission has recommended the 65-year-old German politician for a second term in office. The center-right European People's Party (EPP), which comprises von der Leyen's Christian Democratic Union, continued to be the largest group in the EU Parliament earlier this month, which gave her bid a boost.Von der Leyen has received recognition for taking the lead during the COVID-19 crisis, when the EU purchased vaccines for its citizens as a whole. However, she also encountered harsh criticism for the lack of transparency in the talks with the manufacturers of vaccines.In the lead-up to the European elections, Von der Leyen has also represented the EU's plans to become climate neutral by 2050. However, her dedication to the Green Deal policies has come under scrutiny as the EU appeared wary of upsetting farmers who claimed that EU environmental and climate laws were forcing them into bankruptcy.

Automakers request a review of the emergency braking rule from a US body.
June 24, Washington, DC (Reuters) - The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration was urged to reevaluate the April rule mandating nearly all new vehicles and trucks to have enhanced automatic emergency braking systems by 2029 by a group representing major automakers.Nearly all other automakers, along with the Alliance for Automotive Innovation, which represents General Motors (GM.N), Toyota Motor (7203.T), and Volkswagen (VOWG_p.DE), have stated that the April requirement, which stipulates that all cars and trucks must be able to stop and avoid striking vehicles in front of them at up to 62 miles per hour, is "practically impossible with available technology."Automatic emergency braking (AEB) systems use cameras and radar to detect when a vehicle is close to crashing and then automatically apply brakes if the driver has not applied the brakes. Congress directed NHTSA to create a rule to establish minimum performance standards for AEB systems in the 2021 infrastructure law.According to the group, cars will "automatically apply the brakes far in advance of what a typical driver and others on the road would expect" as a result of the NHTSA's strict criteria at greater driving speeds, which could lead to rear-end collisions. Also, it said that NHTSA "vastly underestimated the amount of expensive hardware and software changes that automobiles would need to comply with. According to the auto group's CEO John Bozzella, the agency rejected automakers' concerns and the regulation "points to the breakdown of a deliberative rulemaking process at the country’s top traffic safety watchdog." "NHTSA’s action will require more costly systems that won’t improve driver or pedestrian safety," Bozzella wrote in a letter to Congress. One of the most comprehensive auto safety laws passed in the United States in recent memory is the mandate. Safety advocates claimed that the current systems were not operating well, particularly at night. They claim the new regulations are necessary to guarantee fewer collisions.

New Zealand versus India How a tiny nation in the southern Pacific consistently outperforms its peers in sports
Despite having a small pool of talent, the nation manages to maximize its resources through careful funding, strategic planning, and first-rate coaching.According to a comedian in a tourist film with former prime minister Jacinda Ardern, it's like a worm in the Tasman Sea or a half-eaten mutton chop in the Pacific. The nation where the Lord of the Rings trilogy was filmed, and the creators of the egg beater. New Zealand may surprise and confound.There are five million people living in this nation, which has an area of one lakh square miles. Its area is about the same as Uttar Pradesh's, and its population is one-fourth that of Mumbai.However, for many years, their stature and power have not stopped them from succeeding in sports. Its cricket team sent India, a nation of 148 million people, as head coach Gautam Gambhir often claims, to its first series defeat at home on Sunday. It had already defeated them to win the mace for the World Test Championship. New Zealand is the side with the most semi-final appearances in 50-over World Cups. All of them have one lakh registered cricket players in their talent pool. There are four times as many in England, Australia, and India.This is a quintessential example of athletic uniqueness. Or "New Zealand doing New Zealand things," as Daryll Mitchell phrased it. The county's level of achievement in many sports is drastically out of proportion to its population. With 80% of their games won this century, the All Blacks are without a doubt the dominant force in rugby union.SportsCricket NewsIndia vs. New Zealand: How a tiny southern Pacific nation consistently outperforms its peers in sports India vs. New Zealand: How a tiny southern Pacific nation consistently outperforms its peers in sports Despite having a small pool of talent, the nation manages to maximize its resources through careful funding, strategic planning, and first-rate coaching.
