Rifleman Aurangzeb’s brother firm on joining Army
Fifteen-year-old Aasim eagerly awaited Id when his elder brother Aurangzeb would be home with all the gifts, including his much- needed cricket bat.Rifleman Aurangzeb, however, did not make it home — terrorists abducted him on his way home and killed him earlier this week in Pulwama. The brutality has left young Aasim shaken to the core but not weakened his resolve to join the Army.‘He was unarmed’Aasim was on the phone talking to Aurangzeb, when the latter was abducted. “My brother was on his way to Poonch in a private vehicle. He was talking to me. I heard a shout ordering the vehicle to stop. I thought there was some checking. I never imagined militants were kidnapping my unarmed brother,” he said. Aurangzeb, who was with the 44 Rashtriya Rifles, was part of Major Rohit Shukla’s team that gunned down Hizbul Mujahideen terrorist Sameer Tiger. But, despite the immeasurable loss, Aasim’s spirit remains unbroken. “I will join Army like my brothers and father,” he said. Their father, Mohammad Hanief, was a former sepoy in the Jammu and Kashmir Light Infantry.
Leg-spin is an art that is difficult to master. But if one does, he always remains a match-winner for his side and there are plenty of examples to prove that point. (India team for New Zealand Test series to be announced on Monday)Having returned from a successful tour of the West Indies, India are now getting ready for the long home season ahead. Their sole aim is to replace Pakistan from top of the ICC Test rankings. (Gambhir makes a strong case for third opener’s slot ahead of New Zealand Test series)While India are expected to rely heavily on Ravichandran Ashwin in their pursuit to become No.1 Test side, leg-spinner Amit Mishra will also be a vital cog in this Indian wheel. (Virat Kohli has been a great captain for India, says Kirsten)Mishra, currently playing the Duleep Trophy final, is upbeat about the New Zealand series that kicks off on September 22 with the first Test in Kanpur. (New selectors to be appointed post interviews, no role for CAC: Thakur)KOHLI A MATURED CAPTAINMishra is enjoying his cricket under Virat Kohli and believes the Indian skipper has matured as a cricketer which has reflected in his game as well.”Virat is an aggressive player and has a great mind as well. I have seen Virat for a long time now and he has matured a lot over the years. In the last three to four years, he has really matured and that reflects in his batting,” Mishra, 33, told India Today. (McClenaghan out of ODI series against India with pelvis injury)advertisement”With captaincy, he has grown as a player. Whenever I play under him, he always gives me the liberty to bowl the way I want to and the field that I want. He would never ask me to dry up the runs or bowl in a way that he wants. He always tells me to bowl the way I want to and asks me to focus on getting wickets. If your captain backs you like Virat does, it would definitely add to the confidence of the player,” said Mishra, who took six wickets in the two Tests he played against the West Indies last month. (Neesham returns to New Zealand squad for India Tests)TEAM IS BENEFITING UNDER KUMBLEMishra made his limited-overs debut in 2003 but had to wait till 2008 to play his first Test. Mishra could never break into the national team with Anil Kumble and Harbhajan Singh at the peak of their careers. (Team India safe under leadership of Dhoni and Kohli: Rahul to India Today)Mishra earned a call up against Australia at home in 2008, which also happened to be Kumble’s retirement series. Mishra justified the decision, picking 14 wickets in the three Tests and also a five-wicket haul on debut in Mohali.Eight years later, Kumble is guiding Mishra as coach of the Indian team. Mishra is effusive in his praise for Kumble and says his inputs have really worked wonders in his improvement as a bowler.”He (Kumble) helps me a lot, not just on the field but mentally as well. He keeps giving me inputs on the pace of the deliveries, on field placements and the areas I need to bowl against certain batsmen. I have certainly improved as a bowler with him as the coach. Not just me but every player in the team is benefiting. He has himself been a great cricketer for the country. He knows how to deal with the players and I am sure, we will become No.1,” he added.
A day after the Indian Davis Cup team were drawn to play Pakistan in an away tie, the All India Tennis Association (AITA) expressed confidence that it will be able to send the contingent to the neighbouring country despite the Indian government’s policy of not allowing sports teams to travel there. The tie is scheduled for September.”I am confident we will be cleared to go to Pakistan. We have been drawn to play them in their den. If we can’t go, we will be banned for two years,” AITA secretary general Hironmoy Chatterjee told IANS over phone.The winner will move to the World Group Qualifiers.Chatterjee’s confidence stems from the fact that Pakistan were allowed to take part in the Hockey World Cup here recently. “Pakistan were in Bhubaneswar (Hockey World Cup) and likewise we will travel to their country,” he said.When pointed out that the government has not allowed the Indian cricket team to travel to Pakistan for any bilateral series, Chatterjee said: “Cricket is not an Olympic sport. Tennis is an Olympic sport and this is the World Cup of tennis. The ITF (International Tennis Federation) decides the venue and we have been drawn to play in Pakistan, and we will go.”No Indian Davis Cup squad has travelled to Pakistan since March 1964. In that tie in Lahore, India had prevailed over their rivals 4-0.”It will be difficult for us then (if India is banned) to get back to the World Group. We share a good relation with the Pakistan Tennis Federation and have no problems in travelling,” he said, rubbishing reports that the tie might be held on a neutral venue.advertisementThe draw for the tie took place in London.In the last week’s World Group Qualifier, India were beaten 3-1 by Italy at the Calcutta South Club here.Chatterjee further said Pakistan will decide the venue and the surface by June 25 and send the nomination to India, after which the AITA will arrange for visas for players and coaching staff.This is an away tie for India since the last time the two nations had met in Mumbai. India had then won the tie 3-2. Before that, India and Pakistan played at a neutral venue in Malaysia in 1973.Current non-playing captain Mahesh Bhupathi was part of the team, which also had Leander Paes, Prakash Amritraj and Rohan Bopanna who is still part of India’s plans. Bopana with doubles partner Divij Sharan won the only rubber against Italy.”It’s a good draw for us. We would like to believe we are the stronger side. Prajnesh is doing well in the ATP challengers and Yuki (Bhambri) is recovering from injury. Ramkumar Ramanathan is expected to continue his surge. We will have three players inside top 150, which has not happened in the Indian tennis for a long time,” India coach Zeeshan Ali told IANS.Ali did not comment on the team’s Pakistan travel plan, saying they have no problem in playing anywhere and on any surface as long as they get the green signal.

Arsenal manager Unai Emery admitted before Saturday’s crunch Premier League clash with Chelsea that defeat would kill his side’s hopes of a top-four finish.However, the Spaniard’s Aaron Ramsey tactical masterstroke has breathed new life into them, with the versatile midfielder offering a bittersweet reminder of his many attributes in a crucial 2-0 victory.A positive result was required for the Spaniard’s side following last weekend’s disappointing defeat at West Ham and while Mesut Ozil started on the bench, the creative spark that the Gunners lacked at London Stadium took just 14 minutes to show itself against the Blues. Article continues below Editors’ Picks ‘There is no creativity’ – Can Solskjaer get Man Utd scoring freely again? ‘Everyone legged it on to the pitch!’ – How Foden went from Man City superfan to future superstar Emery out of jail – for now – as brilliant Pepe papers over Arsenal’s cracks What is Manchester United’s ownership situation and how would Kevin Glazer’s sale of shares affect the club? Hector Bellerin threaded the ball through to Alexandre Lacazette and the Frenchman made no mistake with a thumping finish which flew past Kepa into the roof of the net, giving the hosts a lead they fully deserved after creating an abundance of chances in the opening stages.Only Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang (six) has scored more goals in Premier League London derbies this season than Lacazette (five) and it’s clear that the Frenchman savours and excels in hard-fought games.Indeed, his intensity, harrying and constant pressurising of opposition defences have already endeared him to the Arsenal faithful to such an extent that faint boos could be heard among the supporters when he was hauled off in the second half by Emery, with the hosts two goals to the good thanks to Laurent Koscielny’s header/shoulder.The man of the hour, though, was undoubtedly Aaron Ramsey, a player who has already agreed to join Juventus this summer when his contract expires.
With a deal worth €7 million a year, the Welshman will become one of the highest paid players in Serie A when he moves to Italy.However, while some players may have allowed themselves to be distracted by future fame and glory, Ramsey remains as committed as ever before to helping Arsenal in the here and now, as he underlined with a sterling performance that saw him mark Chelsea playmaker Jorginho out of the game.The Italy international makes Maurizio Sarri’s side tick but if if you stop Jorginho, you stop Chelsea – and that’s exactly what Ramsey and Arsenal did at a freezing cold Emirates Stadium.Emery had stated on the eve of the game that Eden Hazard was among “the top five players in the world” but he failed to make any contribution note in this game thanks to Arsenal’s determined and dogged defensive work.Marcos Alonso came close after hitting the woodwork but Sarri’s side were lethargic and struggled to contain a rampant Arsenal side who played with the kind of intensity Emery has demanded since he was appointed as head coach last summer.Bernd Leno kept his second clean sheet of the season, Arsenal’s fourth in the league, while Sokratis celebrated winning a sliding tackle on Willian with the kind of celebration you see after someone has scored a 90th-minute winner.The Greek defender has made a significant improvement to the back four this season and, just like Lacazette, his passion is another reason why the fans have taken to him so readily.With this most spirited and merited of victories, Arsenal are now level on points with in-form Manchester United and just three behind fourth-placed Chelsea. The battle for Champions League football will be desperately hard-fought.So, while Ramsey’s performance against Chelsea will only intensify the fans’ frustration that he is leaving in the summer, they will at least take comfort in the fact that they will be able to count on him right until the end.

Dutch LNG supplier Titan LNG has completed the largest LNG bunkering in the world involving Heerema Marine Contractors’ new semi-submersible crane vessel.The dual-fuel crane ship Sleipnir, that was just completed in Singapore, was supplied with over 3,000 metric tons of the chilled fuel offshore Sumatra, South East Asia.This is the largest quantity of LNG that has ever been bunkered and proves that this upcoming fuel is available anywhere now, Titan LNG said.“I’m extremely proud of the Titan team that has successfully completed the largest LNG bunkering in the world. It was a complex project to supply this eight-legged innovative crane vessel, the Sleipnir,” Niels den Nijs, CEO Titan LNG, commented.“Titan LNG looks forward to supplying Heerema with more LNG in the future to fulfill our mission of lowering harmful emissions of the marine and industrial sector.”Titan LNG chartered the Coral Fraseri, the newest addition of the Anthony Veder small scale LNG pool of vessels, for this operation. The ship loaded in Singapore at the SLNG terminal where Titan LNG sourced the fuel from Pavilion Gas. The Coral Fraseri followed the Sleipnir offshore and performed a ship-to-ship operation to cool down and fill the tanks.Built at Sembcorp Marine’s Tuas Boulevard Yard, Sleipnir has a 220-meter by 102-meter reinforced deck area and can accommodate 400 persons. It will be deployed globally for installing and removing jackets, topsides, deep-water foundations, moorings and other offshore structures.The largest LNG bunkering in the world, by Titan LNG. #ExtremelyProud #TitanTeam #FuellingSleipnir #Heerema #Sleipnir #Offshore #Sumatra #LNGBunkering #AnthonyVeder #BernhardSchulteShipmanagement Read our article here: https://t.co/m0RCPPXbVM pic.twitter.com/50uLY6cQGl— Titan LNG (@TitanLNG) July 10, 2019
More than 55 grade primary and grade one students from JeddoreLakeville School will release 1,500 speckled trout in WilliamLake, Halifax County, on Wednesday, May 26 in an effort torestock the area. “In order to encourage youth involvement in sportfishing andpromote awareness of our natural resources, it’s important thatwe continue to promote these restocking programs,” saidAgriculture and Fisheries Minister Chris d’Entremont. “It’sencouraging to see young Nova Scotians participating in thisprogram.” Staff from the department’s inland fisheries division andrepresentatives of the Eastern Shore Outdoor Heritage Societywill assist in the restocking program. The initiative will teachchildren the importance of protecting the environment and givethem an appreciation for outdoor recreational activities. The department uses the spring restocking program to reduceangling pressure on wild trout while providing sportfishingopportunities in many urban areas. Speckled trout is thepredominant species used in the department’s hatchery program,accounting for an average of 83 per cent of annual hatcheryproduction.

By Jorge BarreraAPTN National NewsOTTAWA–Former Cree leader turned NDP leadership candidate Romeo Saganash says he doesn’t believe the absence of an NDP provincial wing in Quebec is a “handicap” in the race to replace party leader Jack Layton who died from cancer in late August.Saganash, a Quebec MP for the riding of Abitibi-Baie-James-Nunavik, announced he was gunning for the NDP leadership Friday.Saganash and Brian Topp, the NDP party president and immediate frontrunner, are so far the only two declared leadership candidates in the race, though several other MPs are expected to join in.In an interview with APTN National News Monday, Saganash dismissed concerns raised by high-profile Quebec MP Thomas Mulcair who said candidates from Quebec were at a disadvantage in the leadership race because the NDP lacked a provincial wing there.Mulcair, seen by many as a top NDP candidate, told reporters Monday that he was holding off declaring his intentions to run because he believed the numbers were against him.Saganash admitted that the newness of the NDP in Quebec and its lack of a provincial base was a “challenge,” but it wasn’t enough to make him back off his leadership bid.“It is definitely a challenge and every challenge brings an opportunity,” said Saganash. “We have our work cut out for us. Definitely it is not a handicap in my view, rather an opportunity.”While the NDP has about 90,000 members, only about 1,600 are from Quebec.Saganash also disagreed with Mulcair’s call for the NDP to launch a membership drive targeting the province. He said the NDP should launch a national membership drive, instead of focusing just on Quebec.Mulcair said thousands of membership cards have been sold in British Columbia, where the party recently went through a leadership race, and in Manitoba and Ontario as a result of provincial elections, giving candidates from there an advantage.Most of the NDP’s membership is based outside Quebec despite the majority of elected NDP MPs coming from the province.Saganash said he plans to raise his profile among party members in the rest of Canada the old-fashioned way.“I’ve learned in the past 30 years that it is a matter of going up to them, visiting them and talking to them,” he said. “A lot of people don’t know who Romeo Saganash is. I think this is a huge challenge that I am willing to take up. It is an important hill to climb.”Saganash resigned as director of government relations and international affairs of the Grand Council of Crees to run in the last election against Bloc Quebecois incumbent Yvon Levesque.During the election, Levesque was forced by his party to apologize after he said that Saganash’s Cree ancestry was a liability with voters in their constituency.Saganash, who is making history as the first First Nations leader to vie for the leadership of a major federal political party, said he was focusing on convincing NDP members to back him because of his ideas.“During the campaign I told the Cree…I am not asking the Cree to vote for me because I am Cree, but for the values I stand for,” said Saganash. “It is a very diversified riding. We have Inuit, Cree and Algonquin, we have Abitibi and James Bay non-Natives. When I said yes to Jack Layton I said yes to everybody, not just the Cree.”Layton died from cancer on Aug. 22.
But controversially, they will not have to give any indication of how much is earned from such work. Under the new rules, all staff will be allowed to accept hospitality up to £25 without declaring it, and to accept it up to £75 if declared. Larger sums will be allowed only with exceptional senior approval, the guidance states. It says only “modest offers of travel and accommodation” should be accepted unless senior approval is given, but does not spell out the limits on this. These must also be declared.Sir Malcolm Grant, chairman of NHS England, said: “The public rightly expects NHS staff to behave appropriately and use the healthcare budget to achieve the best outcomes for patients. While behaviour is exemplary in virtually all instances, there are times when more could have been done to prevent standards slipping.“We have invited comment from the public, patients, NHS staff and other stakeholders on our proposals and have acted on what they have told us.”This new guidance will bring a consistent approach to conflicts of interest and ensure that the public can have faith in the integrity of the NHS.” Chris Hopson, chief executive of NHS Providers, said: “We welcome these guidelines and recognise the need to bring greater coherence and consistency to how the health service handles conflicts and potential conflicts of interest.” Doctors will not have to declare their private earnings, health officials have ruled, in a climbdown on NHS conflict of interest rules.Health officials were considering requiring every health service doctor to set out details of all earnings from private work.But today the board of NHS England agreed that medics will simply have to say when and where they take on such duties – and not on how much they earn from them. The public rightly expects NHS staff to behave appropriately and use the healthcare budget to achieve the best outcomes for patientsSir Malcolm Grant The new rules on conflicts of interest also mean all gifts over £50 have to be declared. The guidance will permit staff, such as nurses, to receive a box of chocolates or other small tokens of gratitude from patients but will require them to decline anything that could be seen to affect their professional judgement, officials said. NHS England said the new guidance due to take effect in June, followed feedback during a consultation. It was drawn up by a group including the Association of the British Pharmaceutical Industry and the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence. Under the rules, doctors working for the NHS will have to commit to making the health service their priority. They will also need to say what work they do for the private sector and when and where such duties are carried out. Want the best of The Telegraph direct to your email and WhatsApp?

Social media is slowly creeping into all areas of the web. Even websites and services that have no social features usually place a Facebook or Google+ like button somewhere to help spread the word of their existence. Even so, it’s quite difficult to explain to someone new to the Internet, or social aspects of the web, exactly what this social media revolution is. And just as importantly, what the difference between social media services are.That problem has now been solved by using a donut analogy. Douglas Wray posted a whiteboard breakdown of all the major social media services and explained how they differ from each other using the example of a donut. Quite fittingly he posted the image on Instagram–the photo sharing service.The breakdown is the clearest I have yet seen of how something like Twitter differs from Facebook or LinkedIn. Twitter is for telling people what you are doing at any given moment (eating a donut), Facebook is more for sharing what you like in general (I like donuts), and LinkedIn is for sharing what you’re good at (skilled with donuts). Yet all rely on the sharing of information in different ways to remain relevant and keep people using them.So, the next time someone asks you what social media is, or how two services differ, save this image and pull it up on your phone. They’ll understand much more quickly and you won’t be standing there trying to find examples that work to show the differences. Alternatively, memorize the donut analogy and look clever at parties.via Instagram
Les variations climatiques peuvent conduire aux conflits armésUne étude publiée jeudi dans le magazine scientifique Nature met en évidence l’impact du changement climatique sur les conflits armés, en particulier dans les pays tropicaux régulièrement victimes de tempêtes. Elle alerte également que le phénomène pourrait s’aggraver à cause de la pollution industrielle.”L’étude montre indéniablement que même dans notre monde moderne les variations climatiques ont un impact sur la propension des gens à employer la violence”, explique Mark Cane, de l’Observatoire de la Terre Lamont-Doherty auprès de la Columbia University de New York. En effet, ce climatologue et ses collègues ont réalisé une nouvelle étude sur le changement climatique, mais ceux-ci se sont intéressés à un aspect bien particulier : le lien entre variations climatiques et les conflits. Pour cela, ils ont examiné différents phénomènes climatiques observés entre 1950 et 2004. Puis ils ont croisé ces données avec des informations sur les conflits civils internes ayant fait au moins 25 morts par an et par pays. Au total, ce sont ainsi 175 pays et 234 conflits, dont plus de la moitié ont causé plus d’un millier de morts dans des affrontements, qui ont été passés en revue à l’aide de cette méthode. Mais plus précisément, les météorologues se sont intéressés à deux phénomènes bien particuliers : El Nino et La Nina.Les changements climatiques sont sujets à des cycles. El Nino, ou encore ENSO (El Nino-Southern Oscillation), est un cycle qui fait son apparition tous les deux à sept ans et dont la durée varie entre neuf mois et deux ans. Ce phénomène démarre dans la partie occidentale du Pacifique tropical par une accumulation de masse d’eau chaude et traverse ensuite l’océan. C’est cette partie du cycle qui est nommée El Nino et qui peut provoquer des bouleversements catastrophiques tant au niveau des précipitations que des températures, provoquant canicules, vents violents et secs en Afrique, en Asie du Sud, et du Sud-est ainsi qu’en Australie.Probabilités d’éclatement de conflits plus élevée avec El NinoLa Nina, est un cycle contraire à El Nino qui débute dans la partie orientale du Pacifique. C’est dans ces régions que les masses d’eau se rafraichissent entrainant de fortes pluies. Or, grâce à leur étude, les chercheurs ont établi que la probabilité d’éclatement d’un conflit s’élevait à 3% pour La Nina contre 6% pour El Nino, soit un taux doublé comparé au premier cycle. Quant au pays non touchés par ces deux phénomènes, la probabilité de risque de conflits tombait à 2%.Au final, les chercheurs ont alors montré qu’El Nino a pu jouer un rôle dans 21% des cas de guerres civiles dans le monde. Plus grave encore, le résultat avoisine les 30% lorsqu’il s’agit de pays précisément frappés par El Nino. Solomon Hsiang, auteur principal de l’étude, a ainsi qualifié ce phénomène climatique de “facteur invisible” car il a causé des pertes de récoltes, favorisé des épidémies suite à des ouragans dévastateurs, aggravé la famine, le chômage et donc les inégalités, semant ainsi les divisions au sein de la population. D’autres facteurs indispensables à considérerÀ lire aussiBras robotique, astéroïdes et réchauffement climatique, les actus sciences que vous devez connaître ce 26 juilletToutefois, d’autres paramètres essentiels sont à prendre en compte : la croissance démographique en premier lieu, ainsi que la prospérité d’un pays, puis les compétences des gouvernements à gérer des crises provoquées par un phénomène tel que El Nino. Au vu de tous ces éléments, selon Solomon Hsiang, la crise actuelle en Somalie qui n’est pas incluse dans l’étude, ne peut être qu’un “parfait exemple” des conséquences camouflées d’El Nino.En effet, la famine, doublée, en Somalie, d’une guerre civile, qui frappe la Corne de l’Afrique est, selon les auteurs de l’étude, un exemple-type des effets des variations du climat dont les causes sont naturelles, provoquant sécheresse et tensions dans une société déjà fragilisée, rapporte l’AFP.
