Image
[ad_1] After several chart-topping hits with Kashmir the band and venturing into solo projects, singer-songwriter Bilal Ali has released his solo single, Har Qadam. A feel-good melodic song, Har Qadam has a heartfelt message about the unpredictability of life and the realisation to let go and let life take its course. The lyrics, composed by Ali himself, are a touching reflection on the challenges we face and how we must learn to adapt to the twists and turns that come our way.

PSG coach Galtier denies racism allegations

Image
[ad_1] Christophe Galtier has been accused of making racist comments during his time in charge at Nice.  Aurelien Meunier - PSG/PSG via Getty Images Paris Saint-Germain coach Christophe Galtier vehemently denied accusations that he made racist and anti-Muslim comments when he was in charge of French league club Nice , adding Wednesday that he would take legal action.

With a New, Improved ‘Einstein,’ Puzzlers Settle a Math Problem

Image
[ad_1] In March, a team of mathematical tilers announced their solution to a storied problem: They had discovered an elusive “einstein” — a single shape that tiles a plane, or an infinite two-dimensional flat surface, but only in a nonrepeating pattern. “I’ve always wanted to make a discovery,” David Smith, the shape hobbyist whose original find spurred the research, said at the time. Mr. Smith and his collaborators named their einstein “the hat.” (The term “einstein” comes from the German “ein stein,” or “one stone” — more loosely, “one tile” or “one shape.”) It has since been fodder for Jimmy Kimmel, a shower curtain, a quilt, a soccer ball and cookie cutters, among other doodads. Hatfest is happening at the University of Oxford in July. “Who would believe that a little polygon could kick up such a fuss,” said Marjorie Senechal, a mathematician at Smith College who is on the roster of speakers for the event. The researchers might have been satisfied with the discovery and the...

Cutting through the white noise

Image
[ad_1] From L.A. to Chicago to New York, noise is one big reason why 1 in 3 American adults doesn't get enough sleep, thanks to noisy neighbors, ambulances, fire engines or garbage trucks at 3 o'clock in the morning. Psychologist Matthew Ebben learned all about noisy nights years ago when he bought an apartment in Queens, New York. "It was unbelievably loud," he said. Not only was his bedroom a half-block away from the Long Island Railroad, but "there was a bus that went up a hill in front of the apartment, and there was an ambulance that liked to park across the street," he said. "It was torture." A desperate man who didn't want to move, he turned to a white noise machine, which emits more noise: "It's the sound of a fan, it's the sound of an air conditioner," he said. "So, if you have a constant noise which is a little louder than these intrusions, you won't be woken up by the intrusions." ...

Retail Stock Investors Sentiment Driven, Tend To Engage In Speculative Trading, Says Report

Image
[ad_1] The report said there is a need for market regulators to ensure that the participation is informed and educated. (Representative image) The report highlighted that it was in FY '21 that the stock market witnessed increasing interest from the retail investors. With retail participation assuming a sizable weightage in the Indian stock market, the regulator SEBI should ensure that individual investors are constantly kept informed and educated about the market dynamics, since this segment of investors are ‘highly sentimental driven’, an ASSOCHAM-CareEdge Ratings report has said. The report said that retail participation contributes to improving liquidity of markets and depth of the order book. A diversified investor base, comprising both retail and institutional investors is important for market resilience in emerging markets during periods of volatile international flows. However, it could also add to greater market volatility, it added. Retail investors are highly sentime...

Arsenal's Partey set for scans on groin injury

Image
[ad_1] Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta said Thomas Partey will be sidelined for several weeks with a groin injury. The 30-year-old missed Sunday's dramatic 3-1 win over Manchester United at Emirates Stadium after sustaining the problem in training on Thursday and will undergo further tests. - Stream on ESPN+: LaLiga, Bundesliga, more (U.S.) The Ghanian FA had already confirmed Partey would miss this month's Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers against the Central African Republic and Liberia, but Arteta hinted the midfielder could be sidelined for a lengthy period if the club's worst fears are confirmed.

‘Food’ Review: It’s an Acquired Taste

Image
[ad_1] In an auditorium in Scotland, the American theater artist Geoff Sobelle is hosting a dinner party. The stage is taken up by an enormous square table, laid out with plates and cutlery. Around three of its sides sit twenty-four audience members. At the center of the fourth is the waistcoated figure of Sobelle, who brings wine, hands out menus and takes orders. When one lady requests a baked potato, he produces a bucket full of earth and empties it out onto the table; he plants a seed in the mound, waters it and waits a while before reaching in to pull out a large spud. After several skits in this vein, Sobelle withdraws into himself and proceeds to binge silently: He eats one apple, then another, and then another and another, followed by a bowl of cherry tomatoes, a few radishes and carrots, a concerning quantity of ranch, a number of raw eggs, an entire onion and some bank notes. Sobelle’s one-man show “Food,” which runs at The Studio through Aug. 27 as part of the Edinburgh...

Murray toughs out another win, Raducanu advances | The Express Tribune

Image
[ad_1] INDIAN WELLS: Former world number one Andy Murray made it through another tense match on Thursday, rallying from a set down to beat Tomas Etcheverry and reach the second round of the Indian Wells WTA and ATP Masters 1000. The Briton, who has made a habit of great escapes this year, needed three hours and 12 minutes to subdue the Argentinian 6-7 (5/7), 6-1, 6-4. "Some of the matches I've played this year I haven't deserved to win," said Murray, who won a five-setter lasting more than five hours at the Australian Open and in Doha last month overcame eight match points in four matches before falling to Daniil Medvedev in the final. "Today, I felt like I created so many opportunities and it was one that easily could have got away from me," added Murray, who had eight break chances in the second set. Murray, grinding back toward the top 40 after hip replacement surgery in 2019, had to fight off two break points himself in the eighth game of ...

Banks not keen to fund Vodafone Idea before capital hike: Report - Times of India

Image
[ad_1] MUMBAI: Loss-making Indian telecom operator Vodafone Idea has sought at least Rs 7,000 crore ($846 million) in emergency funds from local banks, which are however reluctant to extend fresh loans, four sources familiar with the matter said. The company needs the funds to remain in business. But the lenders will wait for either a capital increase by its main shareholders - UK-based Vodafone Group and local investor Aditya Birla Group - or a debt-to-equity conversion by the government before granting the debt-laden operator more funding, the sources told Reuters. "Without that (capital injection) it looks difficult for the company to ...survive," said one top official at a state-owned bank. A news report said in November that the carrier needed to raise about $3 billion in all to avert an immediate financial crunch - with any government rescue package coming on top of that. Vodafone Idea is awaiting a final nod on a government package that would allow it to conver...
