The New York Times editorial board on Monday endorsed Kamala Harris, calling the Democrat "the only patriotic choice for president" in the race against Republican Donald Trump. But the paper did not even mention the vice president's name until the fourth paragraph of its written endorsement -- instead focusing attention on Trump's unworthiness for the presidency, calling him morally and temperamentally "unfit." "This unequivocal, dispiriting truth -- Donald Trump is not fit to be president -- should be enough for any voter who cares about the health of our country and the stability of our democracy to deny him re-election." It's an "anyone but Trump" approach that The New Yorker took one day prior, with editors at the magazine saying the Republican represents the "ongoing assault on the stability, the nerves, and the nature of the United States." In its lengthy endorsement, the Times acknowledged Harris "may not be

A mere helmet theft at Lucknow General Post Office last month turned into a legal battle when the police refused to lodge the 33-year-old advocate's complaint. However, a case was registered following a court order. Recalling the incident, Mr Pandey told PTI on Saturday that his black helmet was stolen on August 17 when he went to the General Post Office (GPO) around 2.24 pm to send a notice issued by the court. He said it was stolen by some unidentified individual(s) while waiting in the queue. "The helmet was neither bought by me on a special occasion nor was gifted to me by anyone. However, it getting stolen from inside a government (in the state capital) is definitely a serious issue," Mr Pandey said. According to advocate Pandey, he was prompted to move court when the local police initially did not register a case of theft. "I am annoyed by the system and was forced to move court. I don't mind the theft of the helmet, but the delay on the part of the s

Do you often feel sluggish and drowsy after meals? If your low energy levels are sabotaging your productivity and you're wondering why this is happening, worry not. Nutritionist Pooja Malhotra has shared an Instagram post explaining how diet, sleep, and certain underlying medical conditions can contribute to feeling lazy after a meal. She offers insights on how to stop struggling to stay awake and focused after lunch or dinner. In the video, Ms Malhotra can be heard saying, “Feeling sluggish and drowsy after meals and unable to concentrate, then stop scrolling. The top reason why we feel sluggish after meals is a high-carb or a high-fat diet. Now, when these are digested, our body produces much more serotonin and melatonin, which make us drowsy.” Pooja Malhotra continues, “Another reason could be sleep deprivation from the previous night, which makes us drowsy immediately after a meal. Other reasons could be alcohol intake, lack of movement or medical conditions such as diabetes,

The man suspected of being involved in the horrific refrigerator murder in Bengaluru has been found dead in Odisha. He has apparently died by suicide, said sources in the Odisha police. The man, Mukti Ranjan Roy, was found hanging on a tree in Odisha's Bhadrak district today. One of her three key friends in Bengaluru, he was the prime suspect in the case. The body of the woman, Mahalaxmi, chopped into 30-odd pieces and stuffed in the fridge, was recovered on Saturday, shocking the city. The body parts were partially decomposed, leading the police to believe that she was killed at least two weeks before. The woman, who worked at a mall, was estranged from her husband, who, reports say, had blamed her friend for the murder. The discovery of the body came days after the city police said they have identified the suspect and was on his trail. from NDTV News Search Records Found 1000 https://ift.tt/8uSUg1m

The forest department in Udaipur district, with the help of the Army, has captured two leopards, bringing a sigh of relief to residents of Gogunda town where three people were killed in attacks by the big cats last week, officials said on Tuesday. The leopards were captured in separate cages on Monday night, they added. The traps were set following a wave of panic in the community after the rise in deaths due to leopard attacks. In response to the fatalities, which included a 16-year-old girl, a 50-year-old man, and a 40-year-old woman, the forest department launched a search operation with local police, according to officials. A team from the Indian Army was also called in on Saturday to trace the animals. Cages were strategically placed at six locations in the area, they said. Gogunda police station SHO Shaitan Singh Nathawat said the leopards were rescued and transported to Sajjangarh Biological Park in Udaipur city by the forest department team. Nathawat said prima facie, one

It's been over a year since the Titan submersible, on a deep-sea expedition to explore the wreck of the Titanic, imploded, killing all five individuals onboard. Now, testimonies from the first week of a US Coast Guard hearing have cast a damning spotlight on OceanGate, the Washington-based company behind the submersible, and its founder, Stockton Rush, who was also killed in the tragedy. The company, which charged wealthy adventurers around $250,000 per dive, is now being scrutinised for prioritising profit over safety. “What this really comes down to is hubris and greed,” Peter Girguis, a Harvard oceanographer, told CNN . He pointed out the grim parallels between the Titan disaster and the Titanic's sinking over a century ago. “It's both tragic and ironic that this hubris occurred within a few hundred metres of the Titanic, another emblem of human pride,” he said. According to testimony, one of the last messages sent from the Titan came at 10:14 am local time in Newfoun

Scientists surprised themselves when they found they could instruct a version of ChatGPT to gently dissuade people of their beliefs in conspiracy theories - such as notions that Covid-19 was a deliberate attempt at population control or that 9/11 was an inside job. The most important revelation wasn't about the power of AI, but about the workings of the human mind. The experiment punctured the popular myth that we're in a post-truth era where evidence no longer matters, and it flew in the face of a prevailing view in psychology that people cling to conspiracy theories for emotional reasons and that no amount of evidence can ever disabuse them. "It's really the most uplifting research I've ever I done," said psychologist Gordon Pennycook of Cornell University and one of the authors of the study. Study subjects were surprisingly amenable to evidence when it was presented the right way. The researchers asked more than 2,000 volunteers to interact with a chatbo

The pilgrimage to Kedarnath by road was put on hold on Saturday after part of the trek route caved in near Jungle Chatti leaving thousands of pilgrims returning from the Himalayan temple stranded. The helicopter service remains functional, officials said. Rudraprayag Superintendent of Police Akshay Prahlad Konde said 10-15 metre stretch of the trek route caved in suddenly, making movement along the route impossible. Thousands of pilgrims on their way back from the temple got stranded due to it. However, an alternative route, though rather long winding, was readied quickly to evacuate the stranded pilgrims, he said. So far, around 5,000 pilgrims have been evacuated and the rest are also being brought down with the help of the police, SDRF and NDRF personnel, he said. The priority is to first evacuate the pilgrims who got stranded on their way back from Kedarnath, Konde said. Pilgrims bound for the temple were asked to stay in places like Phata, Guptkashi, Rudraprayag and Srinagar t

A worker was killed after he was hit by a BMW car being driven by a diamond merchant on the Coastal Road at Worli in central Mumbai, police said on Friday. The incident occurred on Monday evening on the south-bound corridor of the Coastal Road, which was partially opened for use earlier this year, an official said. This is the first fatal accident on the Coastal Road, according to the police. Based on a complaint lodged by a colleague of the victim, Kashmir Misa Singh, who worked as a wireman at the site, police registered a case against the diamond merchant, Rahil Himanshu Mehta (45), a resident of Worli, he said. In his complaint, Pintukumar Thakur said, "All workers, including Kashmir Singh, were completing their respective assigned tasks of the Coastal Road on Monday. Around 7 pm, Singh was standing on the northbound of the road and movement of traffic on both sides was on. Suddenly, a loud sound on the southbound corridor caught everyone's attention.

A BJP leader's invective for Rahul Gandhi -- that he is the "number one terrorist" -- has snowballed into a huge row, with leaders of the Congress and the BJP carrying on a no-holds barred epistolary war. First it was Congress chief Mallikarjun Kharge writing to Prime Minister Narendra Modi, the response to which came this morning from BJP chief JP Nadda. While it was formally answered by Jairam Ramesh, the Congress's communications in-charge, a barrage of verbal criticism came from the party's other leaders. With each letter, the barbs have got sharper. "The Congress is shocked that the letter written by our president and Leader of Opposition in the Rajya Sabha Shri Mallikarjun Kharge ji to the Prime Minister was passed on to you to respond... Your response to Mallikarjun Kharge's letter to the prime minister is both juvenile and shallow, and a shameful attempt to distract from the serious threats to Rahul Gandhi's life," Mr Ramesh wrote. &quo

He befriended women online and asked them to marry him. And once he had earned the women's trust, he would disappear with their money. This was the modus operandi of Mukeem Khan, a conman who had cheated over 50 women across the country, including a woman judge who failed to see through his lies. Khan, 38, a resident of Pratapgarh in Uttar Pradesh, was arrested by the Delhi Police Crime Branch recently for extorting money from women on false pretexts. He created multiple accounts on matrimonial websites with fake identities and trapped women in his intricate web of lies. Khan told the cops he used to target Muslim women - unmarried, widowed and divorced - for marriage. He introduced himself as a government officer and enticed them with fake stories about his wife being dead and he being unable to take care of his daughter. Khan, who is married and has three children, used to share photos of his wife and daughter with these women. He even met their families and fix the wedding d

Arvind Kejriwal Resignation LIVE Updates: Arvind Kejriwal  resigned today as the Chief Minister of Delhi. Senior AAP leader Atishi, who is currently serving as the Delhi Education Minister, will take up the top post after Mr Kejriwal steps down.

Former Trinamool Congress Rajya Sabha MP Jawhar Sircar on Monday opened up on why he quit the party and laid out five reasons for his resignation. Speaking to IANS, Mr Sircar asserted that the RG Kar rape and murder case was mishandled, which led to widespread dissatisfaction among the public. Following are the excerpts from the interview: IANS: RG Kar's former Principal Sandeep Gosh was arrested in connection with the rape, murder and destruction of evidence and conspiracy. Is this the reason for your resignation as a Rajya Sabha member? Jawhar Sircar: My resignation is on a wider issue. I wanted to bring it to the notice of Trinamool leaders that there is widespread dissatisfaction among the people over the RG Kar Medical College incident, which was handled badly. I am an administrator. I know what is good handling and what is bad handling. My second issue is corruption and favouritism, and I am very clear that there are issues of corruption and favouritism within the health

Ashley Reilly, a 21-year-old woman from Western Australia, has shared her extraordinary journey of experiencing a rare medical phenomenon where she 'grew a uterus' despite never experiencing puberty, the New York Post reported. Her story began in primary school, where she watched her friends embark on the journey of adolescence, marked by menstruation and physical changes. However, she never experienced the same physical changes, leaving her feeling confused and isolated. It wasn't until Ashley was 16 that she shared her struggles with her mother and aunt, who took her to a doctor.  ''For me, it just never happened. I didn't speak up about it, because I wasn't sure if it was normal or if I was a late bloomer,'' she told news.com.au. The ultrasound revealed that Ashley's reproductive anatomy was significantly underdeveloped. She had no uterus, no cervix, and a shortened vaginal canal. This led to a diagnosis of Mayer-Rokitansky-Küster-Hauser (M

Moscow and Kyiv swapped 103 prisoners of war each on Saturday in a deal brokered by the United Arab Emirates, a rare moment of coordination between the two warring sides as Russia pushes ahead in east Ukraine. The Russians released in the swap were captured during Ukraine's incursion into the Kursk region, Moscow said, while some of the Ukrainians freed had been held prisoner since Moscow seized the Azovstal steel plant in May 2022. "Another 103 soldiers were returned to Ukraine from Russian captivity," Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said on Telegram. Among the freed were 82 privates and sergeants as well as 21 officers, Zelensky said. "The defenders of Kyiv, Donetsk, Mariupol and Azovstal, Lugansk, Zaporizhzhia and the Kharkiv regions," he added. Russia confirmed it had "handed over" 103 Ukrainian army prisoners, and received 103 Russian servicemen captured by Kyiv in its Kursk offensive in return. "At present, all Russian serviceme

A viral video from Lalbaugcha Raja, one of Mumbai's most visited pandals on Ganesh Chaturthi, has stirred a debate on the existence of VIP culture even in religious places.   The video, widely circulated on social media, showed the stark contrast between two different experiences at the Lalbaugcha Raja festival. On one hand, it showed VIP devotees enjoying the special treatment, taking selfies and revelling in the festivities. On the other hand, it revealed a chaotic scene where regular worshippers were pushed and shoved by volunteers and workers as they waited in queues to pay their respects.  Sharing the video on X, formerly Twitter, a user wrote, “If you are getting aggressive inside a temple then I don't know what faith means,”  If you are getting aggressive inside a temple then I don't know what faith means pic.twitter.com/CJ9KKyEXjh — Dr Nilima Srivastava (@gypsy_nilima) September 13, 2024 The footage has caught the attention of many prominent figures, includin

Union Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman on Thursday lashed out at Congress leader Rahul Gandhi for his controversial remarks abroad and asked if the Congress party endorsed his statements, especially those on Sikhs. Stating that as Leader of the Opposition, he should not have misused his freedom of expression to meet those working against the interest of India, and speaking against the country, she said the Congress party should explain if it endorsed his views especially those on Sikhs. "It's nothing but a bad time... You can criticise the BJP, the Prime Minister and the government and we are prepared to respond. But just because you have the freedom of expression meeting those working against the interests of India, an anti-India lawmaker, is unacceptable," Ms Sitharaman told reporters here. Addressing a gathering of several hundred Indian Americans in Washington DC on September 10, Mr Gandhi accused the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) of considering some religio

A large piece of amber used for years as a doorstop has just been valued at around $1 million (Rs 8.4 crore), according to EL PAIS . The 3.5-kilogramme stone was dug up by an elderly woman from a stream bed near Colti, Romania, and then used in her house to hold open doors. It was later discovered that the stone was one of the largest pieces of amber, which is the resin of a tree fossilised for millions of years. This type, known as rumanit because of its reddish hue, is mined around Colti. After she died in 1991, the house had been passed on to a relative who felt that the doorstop could be more valuable than originally thought. It was then sold to the Romanian state, and experts from the Museum of History in Krakow confirmed the amber to be between 38 and 70 million years old. The information has been confirmed to EL PAIS by Daniel Costache, director of the Provincial Museum of Buzau, where the object is currently being kept. "Its discovery represents a great significance b

According to police reports, four men -- Pravin Shanabhai Vasava, Kiran Shanabhai Vasava, Gangaram Gangubhai Vasava, and Chunilal Mangaldas, all residents of Shinor and nearby villages -- have been arrested in connection with the case.

As it spreads quickly throughout Europe, a recently discovered Covid-19 subvariant called XEC is drawing the attention of health authorities globally. XEC was first discovered in Germany, but reports of it have since spread to the Netherlands and other parts of Western Europe. Physicians and scientists are keeping a close eye on XEC, as it appears that it may eventually overtake the current dominant subvariant, KP.3.1.1. Right now in the US, this subvariant is the most common strain. According to a California-based physician speaking to the Los Angeles Times , XEC is "just getting started" and may take several weeks to months before it begins to significantly impact global and domestic case numbers. While XEC is "definitely taking charge" and appears to be the next prominent variant, experts caution that it will likely be months before it reaches high levels of prevalence.

The United States said Thursday it had secured the release of 135 political prisoners from Nicaragua, the latest mass transfer by President Daniel Ortega's increasingly authoritarian government. The White House said that the prisoners included members of faith organizations, students and others viewed by Ortega and his team as a "threat to their authoritarian rule." The freed prisoners arrived Thursday in nearby Guatemala, whose reformist President Bernardo Arevalo has worked closely with Washington on the key issue of migration, the State Department said. They will have the opportunity to seek to move to the United States. "We urge the immediate and unconditional release of all political prisoners and prisoners of conscience in Nicaragua," Secretary of State Antony Blinken said in a statement.  "The Nicaraguan people want and deserve a restored democracy where all can exercise their human rights and fundamental freedoms, free from fear of persecution

Personal notes that played a key role in convicting child serial killer Lucy Letby were reportedly written under the guidance of counsellors to help the nurse manage severe stress. The handwritten notes, which included disturbing phrases such as "I am evil I did this" and "I killed them on purpose because I am not good enough to care for them," were used as evidence during Letby's trial. Letby was convicted in 2023 for the murder of seven babies and the attempted murder of six others, including two attempts on one child. Earlier this year, she proclaimed her innocence while receiving an additional whole-life sentence for the attempted murder of another baby girl. She is currently serving 15 whole-life sentences for her crimes, committed at the Countess of Chester Hospital's neonatal unit between June 2015 and June 2016. Sources close to the case told The Guardian that the notes, labelled as confessions, were produced as part of a therapeutic process du

A special court for Pocso cases in the Kerala capital on Wednesday sentenced a 37-year-old man to imprisonment till his death for the brutal crime of harassing his daughter for several years right from when she was five years old. Pocso court judge M.P. Shibu, after hearing all the sides, sentenced the man to jail till his death and also directed the District Legal Service Authority to pay the victim a sum of Rs 1.50 lakh from the fine that was collected from the accused. The man, a casual labourer hailing from suburban Aruvikara in the state capital district, had remarried after his first wife passed away and his daughter, who was one-and-a-half-year-old then, was staying with them. He was arrested last year after his daughter disclosed her ordeal to her teacher when she came to take her Class 10 public examination conducted by the state Education Department. Finding the girl deeply disturbed, the teacher asked her the reason, and the girl broke down, saying that on the previous da
