Guwahati: Assam celebrated the 402nd birth anniversary of medieval-era Ahom military commander Lachit Barphukan on Sunday and paid tribute to the general who defeated the Mughals in the Battle of Saraighat around 350 years back in 1671.

IPL 2025 mega auction IPL Auction 2025: Who got whom IPL 2025 Auction: Updated Full Team Squads People across the state paid respect to the hero on the occasion of Lachit Diwas . In Guwahati, members of Lachit Sena took a boat ride from Kajali Chowki in Chandrapur, where the commander set up his first military base during the Battle of Saraighat, to Lachit Ghat, where a large statue of Barphukan now stands, to remember his heroic endeavour. “Lachit fought with great valour and demonstrated great maritime warfare skills. While paying tribute to him, we must remember his military strategy and naval tactics that led to Mughal’s defeat. Along with Lachit, the others in his army also deserve remembrance on this day,” a Lachit Sena member said at the ghat. Locals also paid tribute to the general in Jorhat district’s Hollongapar, where his maidam (burial tomb) is situated. In March this year, PM Modi unveiled a 125-foot statue — The Statue of Valour — of the medieval-era Ahom military commander at Hollongapar. In a video message on Facebook, chief minister Himanta Biswa Sarma urged the people of Assam to keep Lachit Barphukan’s photo as the display pictures on their social media accounts. Sarma, along with his cabinet colleagues, including education minister Ranoj Pegu and housing and urban affairs minister Ashok Singhal on Sunday changed their display pictures as a mark of respect to Barphukan. “On the occasion of the 402nd birth anniversary of the great Ahom general, we will again remember his courage, determination and patriotism. On the 400th birth anniversary of the general, the Assam govt took the initiative to disseminate tales of his bravery from Assam to across the country. Lachit Barphukan exemplified courage, determination and patriotism. His heroic tales of bravery reverberate across every household in Assam and beyond. His acts represent the valour and determination of Assamese people,” CM Sarma said in the post.

Databricks executive breaks down the AI talent wars: ‘It’s like looking for LeBron James’STRICTLY fans have noticed a huge blunder from JB Gill as they slammed the judges for missing mistakes. The BBC dance competition continued on Saturday night after last week's special Blackpool show. For week nine, JLS star JB Gill and his partner Lauren Oakley performed a Charleston to Yes Sir! That’s My Baby by Firehouse Five Plus Two. The pair impressed the judges, with Shirley Ballas, Craig Revel Horwood, Motsi Mabuse and Anton Du Beke scoring them a total of 39 points. But despite them narrowly missing out on the top score, fans at home noticed how JB almost 'dropped' Lauren. During the routine he flipped her during a lift, and she came down fast and hard on her legs, just avoiding the floor. Eagle-eyed Strictly fans said on social media: "I’m sure JB made a mistake after the lift there did he not? But still get a 10? Strange it was right in front of the judges too." A second wrote: "So JB's dance was better than Sarah Hadland's? I dont think so. His knees were not high enough in the flicks and they didnt match his partner. Also he struggled with the lifts. Another example of unfair scoring. Sarah had a better dance." "It was a very good charleston, but I don't understand JB getting multiple 10s when he definitely went on the wrong foot at one point, and a couple of lift transitions were almost crunchy," said a third. While a fourth commented: "Erm... I’m no dancing world champion, but JB messed up a few steps I thought?" Meanwhile, JB opened up how this week has been 'tough' following the funeral of his close pal Liam Payne . The singer, who first met Liam in 2008 during auditions for The X Factor, reflected on their friendship in a new interview. He told the Daily Mail : "He was a very good friend. We literally met him when he was starting his journey out. It was before he had the success of One Direction because he was just a solo artist in the same year that we were in The X Factor and got onto the live shows. I just remember him following the boys and me around." Gorka Marquez joined Strictly Come Dancing as a professional dancer in 2016 when he was partnered with EastEnders actress Tameka Empson. The following year he was partnered with singer Alexandra Burke. They reached the final and finished as one of the runners-up. In 2020, he was partnered with actress Maisie Smith. Again, he made it to the final and finished as a runner-up. He failed to make it third time lucky in 2022, finishing runner-up again with Helen Skelton. Nadiya Bychkova joined the show in 2017 with EastEnders actor Davood Ghadami. The pair reached Week 11, finishing in 6th place. Her best performance to date came in 2021 when she finished fifth with Dan Walker. Neil Jones has been without a celebrity partner more times than he's had one since joining in 2016. His best finish was with ex-footballer Alex Scott in 2019, finishing in fifth. Katya Jones was another 2016 addition and made an instant impression with politician Ed Balls. Their Gangnam Style routine is still a favourite to this day. In 2017 she lifted the Glitterball with Joe McFadden. The following year she was at the heart of a show scandal after snogging her dance partner, the comedian Seann Walsh. Karen Hauer has been an ever-present since 2012. Despite her lengthy association with the show, she's never lifted the Glitterball. The closest she came was in 2020 when she finished runner-up with Jamie Laing.

1. A pack of 120 ornament hooks so you don't realize in the middle of your burst of productivity at 10 p.m. that you have nothing to hang your ornaments with. You'll def need these, and the little swirl-y design is elegantly beautiful as heck. I personally always buy these. They give off that fancy shmancy look, they're sturdy, and are easy to attach the ornaments to. I keep 'em on my Christmas Amazon list in case I change my decoration colors or simply need more because, who am I kidding, you ALWAYS need a ton of these. Promising review: "I am not someone who writes product reviews but this one is necessary. 36 years of having my own Christmases and these are hands down the best hangers I’ve ever purchased. I go on a yearly quest for better hangers and these are the last ones I will ever buy. I’ve had cheap ones from Dollar Tree to extremely pricey ones from Pottery Barn. Aside from being adorable, these hold all my ornaments of various sizes and weights without a problem, and are staying in place . I selected green because I like the seamless look with the tree as to not take away from the ornament, and these do just that. Highly recommend!" — Kent & Dawna Get a 120-pack from Amazon for $6.99+ (available in five colors and 200-, and 300-packs). 2. A Christmas LED light projector with ~thousands~ of moving red and green lights because it's the closest you'll ever get to having Martha May Who's little machine that decorated her house in like, five seconds. Similar vibes — just plug it in, aim it at your house, and *bam*, halls = decked. You can also use it indoors! It's got a range of up to 100 yards and can withstand temps up to 30 degrees Fahrenheit. The lights can also be still rather than moving. Promising review: "I have never decorated the outside of my house for Christmas. I am 49-years-old and this was the year I was going to. I saw that this product was on sale and decided I would give it a try. This product was so awesome and easy to set up . I just loved the laser shower of lights. This met my expectations and more. This laser projector made my house stand out from my neighbors. The take down was also very easy. This product just made me smile every time it came on. It came on everyday at dusk automatically. Totally a no-fuss or maintenance product. " — Chrissy49 Get it from Home Depot for $32.98 . 3. Command decorating clips to help with hanging your garland and string lights *without* ruining your walls. Now that's a holiday miracle. FYI, the max weight per hook is three pounds. Promising review: "Used these to hang string lights and flower garlands in a bedroom! They've been up since January and are holding strong. Application was easy, I was easily able to remove and replace any that I'd accidently placed crookedly, hopefully they'll be as easy to remove when it's time for them to permanently come down. They blend in with the wall well; I've had several people ask me how the decorations are hanging. I even forget that they're there unless I'm seeking one out." — I Like to DIY Get 20 clips from Amazon for $9.55+ (also available in a pack of 40). 4. A "Home Alone" doormat that'll make guests chuckle as they arrive to your home. Merry Christmas, ya filthy animals! Wood By Stu is a Tampa, Florida-based small biz that specializes in personalized 3D wood signs, doormats, and wedding gifts. Promising review: "Love it! Appears very well made. The ink is dark and thick, and doesn’t look like it’s going to rub off anytime soon. I can’t wait to display this at my front door." — Ashley G. Get it from Wood By Stu on Etsy for $16.47+ (available in eight sizes). 5. A Balsam Hill artificial Christmas tree with *drumroll please 🥁* 600+ lights (the bigger the tree, the more lights!) — and not just any lights, this tree can switch between color and clear lights. Andddd it comes with a remote that controls the lights. If I were the Grinch, this would be the first tree I'd take. It even comes with gloves to use when fluffing! Promising reviews: "My husband and I are amazed by the beauty and realistic quality of this artificial tree. The color and shape of needles are truly realistic and I have to keep reminding myself in the morning not to water it. It does take time to assemble and fluff the needles, but it was worth it. Balsam Hill provided everything that you need — tools, two sets of gloves, a tree stand, and a huge tree storage bag. The needles are so strong, hold ornaments well, and are easy to shape. Don't hesitate to buy a Balsam Hill tree...worth the extra price and you won't be sorry." — Amanda "Everything about this tree is spectacular!! We wanted bigger and better and we got it. The tree couldn't be more realistic and the amount of lights is perfect (I was skeptical and it didn't disappoint)! It is worth every penny. Everyone that has walked through the door is oohhing and ahhhing! Couldn't be happier!" — Bananarama Get it from Balsam Hill for $249+ (originally $449+; available in 4.5'–18' heights and three light options). 6. Or a more affordable artificial Christmas tree that comes with lights already on it *which* I must say is ~lit~ as heck because one of the worst parts of putting up your tree each year is stringing the lights. It also comes in some pretty cool colors so if you've ever wanted to do a pink tree, now's your chance! Pro tip! My family is Christmas-obsessed and I spent most of my life working like a Who to decorate around Christmas time. My aunts sell super elegant decorations, so I know a lot about artificial trees. You have to fluff out the branches! Pull 'em apart, play with the branches until it looks full, move some left, some right, some up, and some down to make them mimic a real tree! And then, since it is NOT a real tree, it *will* have some holes. Put large ornaments, ribbon, spray/picks, and flowers in those holes! Promising review: "So, I ordered the 9-foot tree — best decision so far. Hardly ANY of the needles fell off, it's sturdy, and the lights are beautiful but, to add to it, I ordered more twinkle lights . Easy to put together — took about an hour of fluffing and I’ll probably keep touching it, but that’s me, not the tree. Overall, extremely happy with this buy and so excited for the holiday season. " — Christina F Get it from Amazon for $54.88+ (available in 4'–12' heights and four colors). 7. Some snow flocking powder so your tree can look like you grabbed it from a forest after a snow storm. Just spray (using a spray bottle ) your tree or garland with warm water to prepare, then sift (using a sifter/strainer ) and spray at the same time as the snow is falling, spray it again to lock it in, and *voila* a perfectly flocked tree. So flocking awesome. It works on real and artificial trees! Promising review: "Decided I wanted a flocked Christmas tree, wreaths, garland, the works, for Christmas but buying all of that cost a small fortune. So I did it ALL myself. This covered an eight-foot tree, two large wreaths, about five six-foot long garlands, and there was still a little left over. I did a pretty heavy flock, too. This was also the first time I’ve ever done anything like this and it was SO EASY! So I got my fully flocked Christmas for a FRACTION of what it would have cost to buy all of that new! It’s a great value and looked amazing ! I was extremely happy with this product and the cost!" — Brittany Get a two pound bag from Amazon for $20.95+ (also available in a five pound bag). 8. A stunning pre-lit red poinsettia wreath you won't have to decorate at all, all you gotta do is hang it up! It's SO elegant and looks like it literally should be hung in a fancy, luxury store. Oh! And best of all, it's pretty large and comes with a remote and timer feature. Top tier, elite, exquisite, this thing is *chef's kiss*. Light House Floral is a Connecticut-based small biz that specializes in gorgeous wreaths. Promising review: "I can't say enough great things about this wreath and how well it was packed! I was pleasantly surprised that it was even more beautiful than the picture. The decorations are top quality and the lights were so well strung on the wreath that at first, I didn't see them. Then I turned them on and saw how evenly distributed they were. It will be great to not have to go outside and turn it on. It is so nice to know someone takes enormous pride in their work. I will never get tired of my new wreath. Thank you for taking such care and making beautiful decorations for my front door!" — Amy Get it from Light House Floral on Etsy for $165 . 9. Or a plain pre-lit wreath that you can add your own decorations to if you're super particular about your Christmas color scheme. It has little berry clusters (which one reviewer took out so they could add their own picks) and pinecones and the lights can be changed from a warm white to multicolored with the simple press of a button. Promising review: "I bought several of these wreaths for my front door and garage. I was looking for a simple, affordable option that would stand up to the snow and wind. These are strong and very well made, I couldn’t be happier! As an added bonus, the lights on these wreaths are SO COOL! There are a whole bunch of white and rainbow options, I am so impressed!!" — parletj Get it from Amazon for $44.98 . 10.

Promising review: "What a fabulous and well designed tree stand! We put up a very large tree and the struggle to hold it in place while one or two more people screw the metal pieces to the tree was always a difficult job. We put this tree up in minutes! One person dropped it in the stand and then pumped it with their foot to tighten it to the tree and it was done! So well made, so easy to use, fantastic design!" — Susan M.

You, after plugging in your new outdoor laser light projector: Reviews have been edited for length and/or clarity.December 10, 2024 This article has been reviewed according to Science X's editorial process and policies . Editors have highlightedthe following attributes while ensuring the content's credibility: fact-checked peer-reviewed publication trusted source proofread by Mark Thompson, Universe Today Dyson spheres and rings have always held a special fascination for me. The concept is simple: build a great big structure either as a sphere or ring to harness the energy from a star. Dyson rings are far more simple and feasible to construct and in a recent paper a team of scientists explore how we might detect them by analyzing the light from distant stars. The team suggests they might be able to detect Dyson rings around pulsars using their new technique. Like their spherical cousins, Dyson rings remain for now, a popular idea in science fiction yet they are starting to appear more and more in scientific debates. The concept of the ring is similar to the sphere, a megastructure designed to encircle a star, harnessing its energy on a gargantuan scale. It might consist of a series of satellites or even habitats in a circular orbit with solar collectors and unlike the spheres, require far less resources to build. The concept of the sphere was first proposed by physicist and mathematician Freeman Dyson in 1960. Such structures might be detectable and reveal the existence of intelligent civilizations. It's fascinating to think about civilizations building such constructions. Our own civilization currently consumes around 15,000 terawatts per hour and that number is only going to increase as our population grows and we become even more reliant on technology. To endeavor to quantify the energy usage from the level of technological capability, the Kardashev scale was developed. On this scale, we are currently at Type I which means our power usage is 4 × 10 19 erg s 1 (4 terawatts) If a civilization requires 4 × 10 33 erg s 1 (400 trillion terawatts) then it is considered to be type II and it is these civilizations that may be capable and indeed it may be necessary to build Dyson structures. To create either a solid sphere or even a sphere with orbiting satellites would require phenomenal amounts of material. A sphere which had a radius of 1 astronomical unit (the average distance between Earth and the sun) would require more material than exists in the entire solar system. It is far more likely that civilizations would create ring structures. Rings of this nature around a star would be able to harness significant amounts of energy but a ring around a pulsar would, if the pulse beam of the star could be tracked, be able to capture even more energy, of the order of 10 thousand trillion terawatts. In the paper written by Ogetay Kayali from Michigan Technological University and team, they propose further exploration of pulsar light curves to see if features that could reveal their presence have been missed. The features the team suggest arise from effects of the pulsar beam striking the ring structure . The beams travel at superluminal speeds which could result in multiple images of the pulsar spot on the Dyson ring appearing simultaneously. This may be visible in light curve analysis. A similar effect is seen when dust rings are illuminated with pulsar radiation. The research is accepted for publication in Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society .

NoneTitle: Sun Ce's Unparalleled Quality Downgrade, New Legend of Defender Revealed, Multiple New Skins Set to LaunchState investigation agency (SIA) produced a chargesheet against key operatives behind the “Kashmir Fight”, a social media handle that was used to target migrant pandits. Police said in the fight against cyber-terrorism, the SIA, Jammu, has filed a chargesheet against key operatives behind the notorious “Kashmir Fight”, a social media handle. “The platform, operated by The Resistance Front (TRF)—a proscribed terrorist organisation—was used to issue chilling online threats to migrant Kashmiri Pandit employees, aiming to spread fear and unrest,” the spokesman said adding that in February 2024, a series of threatening posts were published on social media by the terror outfits’s social media handle, following which an investigation was initiated by SIA Jammu. “During the investigation, SIA apprehended Farhaan Muzaffar Mattoo, a resident of Srinagar, for his alleged role in gathering and sharing sensitive information about targeted employees. The probe revealed that Mattoo acted as a conduit, using encrypted communication platforms to pass critical data about migrant employees to handlers based in Pakistan, who then issued threats through the “Kashmir Fight” platform.” The spokesman said that the chargesheet also named Sheikh Sajjad Ahmad, alias Sajjad Gul, a Srinagar resident now operating from Pakistan, as the mastermind of this plot. “Sajad is accused of coordinating the campaign to intimidate migrant employees and disrupt communal harmony in the UT. The exposing of terror plans to disrupt peace underscores the determination of Jammu and Kashmir Police to protect its citizenry and provide a peaceful environment to them.” The spokesman said the chargesheet was filed before the third additional sessions judge, Jammu, on Monday.Zelensky accuses EU leader of helping Putin in Ukraine and it's not Orban

With his exceptional talent on the field and charismatic presence off it, he quickly became a fan favorite and a key player for his club. However, behind the scenes, a darker truth was beginning to emerge.

LANDOVER, Md. (AP) — The ball bounced through KaVonte Turpin's legs and stopped at the 1-yard line. He picked it up, made a spin move and was off to the races. Turpin's 99-yard kickoff return touchdown was the highlight of the Dallas Cowboys' 34-26 win at Washington on Sunday that ended their losing streak at five. That came with just under three minutes left, and then Juanyeh Thomas returned an onside kick for a TD to provide a little happiness in the middle of a lost season. "Feels good to win," coach Mike McCarthy said. “It’s been a minute.” Chauncey Golston ripping the ball out of Brian Robinson Jr.'s hands for what counted as an interception of Commanders rookie quarterback Jayden Daniels and Donovan Wilson forcing a fumble of John Bates earlier in the game helped put the Cowboys in position to make it a game, as did the play of Cooper Rush. Turpin's monster return after initially muffing the retrieval had everyone buzzing. "He did that for timing," McCarthy said. “That was part of the plan. He’s a special young man. Obviously a huge play for us.” Commanders safety Jeremy Reaves, the All-Pro special teams selection two seasons ago, was the first one down the field and blamed himself for not tackling Turpin when he had the chance. “I’ve made that play 100 times,” Reaves said. “I didn’t make it today, and it cost us the game.” Turpin's spin move will likely be replayed over and over — and not stopped by many. Receiver CeeDee Lamb called it “his escape move” because Turpin has been showing it off in practice. “I know I can just get them going one way and then spin back the other way,” Turpin said. "That’s just one of my moves when I’m in trouble and I've got nowhere to go: something nobody ever seen before.” In a wacky finish that McCarthy likened to a game of Yahtzee, Thomas' return was almost as unexpected. It came with 14 seconds left after Washington kicker Austin Seibert missed the extra point following Daniels' 86-yard touchdown pass to Terry McLaurin to leave Dallas up 27-26. “I kind of waited a second and I was like: ‘Should I try? Should I try?’” Thomas said. “I said, ‘I think I’m gonna score the ball,’ so just ran and I scored.” The Cowboys' playoff odds are still incredibly long at 4-7, but with the New York Giants coming to town next for the traditional Thanksgiving Day game at Dallas, players are willing to dream after winning for the first time since Oct. 6. “Lot of games left,” said Rush, who threw two TD passes. “Pretty insane. ... I think both sides of the ball and special teams picked each other up all game. I think it was a full team effort. Finally picking each other up like we’re supposed to.” AP NFL: https://apnews.com/hub/nflIn conclusion, the recent wave of complaints about Tencent Video's membership benefits reflects a growing dissatisfaction among users and highlights the need for the company to reassess its subscription model.
