first_imgTwo days after the Eden Gardens was swamped in maroon colours, it wastime to turn purple as the two-time former champions Kolkata KnightRiders checked in to begin their camp ahead of the IPL season nine, starting from April 9.Skipper Gautam Gambhir and Co. were seen going through their paces, keen to get back into rhythm.An integral part of the side, star South African all-rounder Jacques Kallis was seen in a new avatar of head coach as he along with his deputy Simon Katich assessed the players’ fitness.Only two of their players – Umesh Yadav and Manish Pandey – are currently in the Indian squad, while opener Robin Uthappa and Gambhir only played last in the domestic T20 for Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy in January.Their 2012 and 2014 title winning skipper Gambhir, along with Manish Pandey and Chris Lynn, had a lengthy net session facing the likes of Morne Morkel and John Hastings, the burly Australian recruit of this season.Yusuf Pathan seemed to have shed a few kilos and he was bowling alongside Piyush Chawla at the nets.KKR ace spinner Sunil Narine was the first to check in when he arrived last week but only to rush back home on Saturday with his father’s untimely demise.It remains to be seen whether their key spinner will be available for KKR’s opening match against Delhi Daredevils on April 10.There was no West Indies duo of Andre Russell and Jason Holder who have gone back home to celebrate their World Twenty20 triumph.advertisementBangladesh star all-rounder Shakib Al Hasan and this season’s New Zealand recruit Colin Munro too are yet to join the side.last_img read more

Chelsea could be punished for blowing top spot against Atletico Nizaar Kinsella Click here to see more stories from this author Chelsea correspondent Last updated 1 year ago 06:32 12/6/17 FacebookTwitterRedditcopy Comments(14) Eden Hazard Chelsea Atletico Madrid Chelsea UEFA Champions League Chelsea v Atlético Madrid Antonio Conte Atlético Madrid Opinion A 1-1 draw with the Rojiblancos allowed Roma to take top spot in Champions League Group C, meaning the Blues could face a heavyweight in the last 16 After landing a tough group in this season’s Champions League, Chelsea did wonderfully well to put themselves in a position to make their life in the last 16 a whole lot easier.However, after reaching the knockout stage with a game to spare, the Blues then blew the chance to progress as one of the seeded sides by drawing 1-1 at home to Atletico Madrid on Tuesday night, thus allowing Roma to nick top spot in Group C.Given they cannot face any English sides in the last 16, they could now end up with only three possible opponents: Barcelona, Besiktas or Paris Saint-Germain.

A Liverpool legend in the making: Behind Virgil van Dijk’s remarkable rise to world’s best player Essentially, that would mean a 67 per cent chance of a terrible draw. Chelsea fans will not like those odds.Of course, it was the one point accrued from two games against Roma that proved most costly but Chelsea would still have taken top spot had they seen off Atletico at Stamford Bridge. Instead, they drew 1-1 – despite creating a host of chances.They could even have lost. Former Chelsea striker Fernando Torres beat Davide Zappacosta to a corner whipped in to the near post, leaving the unmarked Saul Niguez – Tiemoue Bakayoko had completely lost his man – with an easy header to put the visitors a goal to the good.Unsurprisingly, it was Eden Hazard who dragged the Blues back into the game. The Belgian created some space for himself with some trickery on the edge of the box before unleashing a low drive that deflected in off Stefan Savic.In truth, an own goal was probably the only way that Chelsea were going to beat Jan Oblak, who produced a string of sensational saves on the night.Bakayoko Chelsea Atletico MadridEden Hazard Chelsea Atletico MadridEden Hazard Chelsea Atletico MadridChelsea could – and perhaps should – have forced a winner, with Willian having recorded the miss of the game not long after being sprung from the bench.Consequently, Blues boss Antonio Conte will be both frustrated and annoyed that his side failed to top a group that they had taken complete control of with a thrilling and deserved win over Atletico in Madrid on matchday two.However, the loss of N’Golo Kante to injury ultimately proved their undoing, with the Frenchman’s absence having been sorely felt in a 3-0 loss in Rome, after Chelsea had been fortunate to nick a draw in the home fixture a couple weeks earlier.Against Atletico, the Blues were ultimately punished for their profligacy. They had 17 shots on goal – Alvaro Morata had seven of them – but they failed to claim all three points. A European heavyweight could now be waiting for them in the last 16.Chelsea, of course, will fear nobody. This, after all, is still the same side that won away to Atletico. In their return to the Champions League, they have come out of arguably the toughest group in the competition.As Hazard enthused afterwards, “We are a top team, so we can face any team. We know PSG and Barcelona are very good but we are Chelsea so we have to be ready for everything. We can do everything!”If next Monday’s draw is unkind, Chelsea fans will be hoping he’s right!last_img read more

Aly Raisman, six-time Olympic medalist, says she was molested by team doctor

This is especially true in the hyper-competitive world of elite gymnastics. Women do speak up, and that is why I am here today.”USA Gymnastics has come under fire over its handling of sexual abuse cases in the wake of the Nassar scandal and an Indianapolis Star investigation that revealed the failure to report to authorities many allegations of abuse against coaches and staff at some of its over 3,500 clubs across the country. The intensified pressure led to the resignation of Steve Penny as president earlier this year, but not without a reported $1m severance package that drew sharp criticism from Raisman.The governing body, which named Kerry Perry as their new president and CEO on Tuesday, has undergone an independent review overseen by former federal prosecutor Deborah Daniels, whose 70 recommendations included “mandatory reporting” of suspicions of sexual abuse, with gyms facing the withholding of membership for failing to do so. “USA Gymnastics is very sorry that any athlete has been harmed,” the organization said in a statement. “We want to work with Aly and all interested athletes to keep athletes safe.” Aly Raisman, one of the most decorated American gymnasts in history, has confirmed she was sexually abused by longtime USA Gymnastics doctor Lawrence G Nassar in an interview with the CBS newsmagazine 60 Minutes.Raisman, 23, said she spoke with FBI investigators after last year’s Rio Olympics, where she captained the United States to a gold medal in the team event and captured individual silvers in the all-around and floor exercise. “Why are we looking at why didn’t the girls speak up? Why not look at what about the culture?” she said in an interview scheduled to air on Sunday night. “What did USA Gymnastics do, and Larry Nassar do, to manipulate these girls so much that they are so afraid to speak up?” Olympic Games Share on Twitter Facebook Share on LinkedIn Rio 2016 Raisman captained the US team in consecutive Olympics, winning gold medals in the team event both times.

Now the Massachusetts native, who details the abuse in a memoir due out this month, is calling for wholesale change.“I am angry,” Raisman told 60 Minutes. “I’m really upset because it’s been – I care a lot you know, when I see these young girls that come up to me, and they ask for pictures or autographs, whatever it is, I just … I can’t … every time I look at them, every time I see them smiling, I just think … I just want to create change so that they never, ever have to go through this.”Raisman’s allegations come three weeks after McKayla Maroney, her team-mate from the 2012 gold medal-winning team known as the Fierce Five, detailed years of abuse by Nassar under the guise of treatment from the age of 13 until her retirement from the sport last year.“People should know that this is not just happening in Hollywood,” Maroney wrote in a lengthy Twitter post inspired by the #MeToo movement, the hashtag campaign that’s encouraged victims of sexual harassment or assault to step forward with their stories. “This is happening everywhere. Wherever there is a position of power, there seems to be potential for abuse. I had a dream to go to the Olympics, and the things that I had to endure to get there, were unnecessary, and disgusting.”In March, Jamie Dantzscher, a 2000 Olympic bronze medalist, and three-time national champion rhythmic gymnast Jessica Howard testified before Congress that they were sexually abused by Nassar.“USA Gymnastics failed its most basic responsibility to protect the athletes under its care,” Dantzscher said during the 90-minute hearing.

A PIECE OF HISTORY…

first_imgFor the first time in ATA history, the past presidents of the organisation are set to meet together to celebrate the history and sport of Touch. What many Touch players are not aware of is the work that the past presidents have done to ensure the sport is as well developed Australia-wide at all levels of competition, as it is today. The president has an incredibly important role in the governance and direction of our sport and the ATA has a long and distinguished roll of those who have served the sport in this capacity. They’re set to meet together this weekend, in conjunction with a Board of Directors meeting, at the Blackett Hotel for dinner and a presentation function in Sydney on Saturday evening. The ATA’s first President, Ray Vawdon held the position from in 1978-79 and Ray is one of those credited with helping Touch take off in Sydney in 1968 at Snape Park in the Eastern Suburbs. 1976 saw the Vawdon Cup played for between South Sydney, Cronulla, Newtown, Canterbury and Manly and also in Vawdon’s time the first ever NSW State Cup was held in Port Macquarie in 1977. Phil Smith (deceased) was at the helm of ATA from 1980-82 and helped to introduce the concept of a National Championships, first held in 1980. Phil is now a life member of the Australian Touch Association, in recognition of outstanding service and his vision for the sport. Peter Rooney served the Touch community not only president but also as the Chief Executive Officer, leading the sport with drive and enthusiasm and achieving many milestones especially in the International Development area. Ken Wells is the ATA’s longest serving president, holding the position from 1984-1990 and was there when the Federation of International Touch started in 1985, of which Australia was an inaugural member. Ken’s vision and drive started the process of the ATA obtaining the building it now currently owns and occupies in Canberra. He also helped initiate the first recognised International game, a test series between Australia and New Zealand and the first ever mixed competition was introduced in 1985 under his guidance. Paul Jonson worked with Ken in 1990 and then ran as president himself from 1991-93. His time encompassed many achievements, including the adoption of a new constitution, revamping technical structures and organizing the official opening of the National Touch Championships in front of New Parliament House. He also organised the official opening of the ATA building by the then Minister for Sport Ros Kelly. Russell Mowles had a huge influence on Touch at a National level while he was President from 1994-97. By 1995 the National Championships had expanded from their original three divisions, to 11 divisions. Then in 1997 Russell and the ATA helped replace the National Championships with what we now know as the National Touch League or NTL. The school of thought behind this change was that it would allow competitors to identify with a regional area and to help keep building Touch Australia wide. We certainly thank Russell for helping to bring together what we now know and love. Brian Rooney served on the ATA board from 1994-1997 as commercial director and then as president 1998-2001. After finishing as President he then rejoined board in 2002, continuing as a director and is now a life member, awarded the title in 2004. Today the Australian Touch Association is continuing to push forward in growth, development nation-wide, in its professionalism and also management. Current president Michael Sparks has been leading Australian Touch since 2001 and has recently seen the implementation of the Management restructure kick off. It no doubt promises an exciting time ahead for Michael in his role and for the entirety of the Australian Touch Association. We would like to take this opportunity to thank all of the past presidents for their tireless effort, time and energy that they have dedicated and continue to dedicate to the growth and development of our sport over the years.last_img read more

Imports numbered 271,671 TEUs, down 2.7 percent from 2013. Exports rose 2.1 percent to 143,572 containers. Empty containers were down 8.3 percent to 101,930 TEUs.Cargo numbers were affected by the Lunar New Year, a holiday celebrated in China and other countries in East Asia. The holiday fell on Jan. 31 this year, and it started a two-week period during which many businesses in Asia close their doors to allow employees to be with their families; production is minimal and business is slow. Because of the time for vessels to cross the Pacific, the Port is impacted from mid-February to early March.The Port of Long Beach continues to invest long term and is three years into a decade-long, $4 billion program to upgrade its facilities. polb, March 20, 2014last_img read more

Please help!Name withheld If you choose not to tell your parents about it (which is probably not the best thing to do), you need to at least cut him off the best you can. No more spending time around him whatsoever. If he sits next to you anywhere, get up and move. Under no circumstances should you ever be alone with him anywhere at any time. This man has technically molested you, and it will only escalate with time. Avoid him like plague. Also Read – Feel what you fear Is jealousy a sign of insecurity? My boyfriend is a very jealous guy. Sanjana, Kolkata Jealousy isn’t always a sign of weakness or insecurity. It could also be an expression of love but jealousy in a relationship isn’t always easy to handle. Jealousy crops up in many ways, but in essence, it’s a sign of insecurity and the fear of losing the one you love. You may get jealous of your partner for several reasons. While jealousy due to misunderstanding is acceptable, irrational jealousy isn’t. Learn to trust your partner and don’t doubt them unnecessarily. Regain your confidence and remember that they do love you, and your lover is not going to stop loving you by just talking to someone attractive. Also Read – HomecomingThe problem in dealing with jealousy in a relationship is that most people forget to put themselves into their partner’s shoes and see what they would have done. I have shifted to Dehradun and I’m very scared of sleeping alone. I’m turning insomniac. How can I overcome this? D. Shiva, Gurgaon I completely understand. This is what I have personally tried and has helped me overcome the fear of sleeping alone. A little noise might help you. While people with insomnia often play music that is combined with the sound of nature; in your case too, you may need to play the sound of people talking. Turn on the TV, choose a 24-hour news/music channel, and adjust the volume. It is quite likely that you’ll get bored and can sleep more easily soon. If it doesn’t help, please consult a doctor. What are the signs that the man is not ready to commit into the relationship? Ishita Ghosh, Kolkata Here are some signs that might be prevalent: If your man is secretive and don’t share information, he may not be the right man for you. By being cautious and keeping you out of his life, he is giving you the message that you do not count, you are not that significant to him. If he does not bring you home to meet his family, then he is not committed to you. Many sons will not bring a date home to meet their family until they believe they have met the person who will be a part of their lives forever. If your man is withholding and not sharing information about where he is going and with whom, then you might have a problem. If a partner needs to keep a private ‘free’ schedule, he is telling you, in no uncertain terms, that he does not want to be tied down to you. If your fellow drops your hand in public, doesn’t take you out on dates, but rather suggests wining and dining only at home… he is sending you a signal that he does not want to be seen with you. You can always rationalize why your dates are connected to down time at home, but nevertheless, if you listen to your inner voice, you will hear that he “likes” you, but does not “love” you. And, if your relationship feels like you are holding hands, but that if you let go, he’ll be gone… then you are definitely in denial.

New Dunkirk film wont feature Churchill so it doesnt get bogged down

first_imgFor some, the Dunkirk evacuations are inseparable from Sir Winston Churchill and his most defiant pledge to never surrender.But a new blockbuster film about the little ships and the heroes within them will not feature the former Prime Minister at all, the director has revealed, for fear of getting audiences “bogged down” in politics.Christopher Nolan, the director, said he had strived to make a film relevant for the modern day, disclosing that the on-screen action would instead focus on the survival story.Writing for the Telegraph’s Saturday Magazine, he said he wanted to create “virtual reality without the headset”, bringing the reality of Dunkirk home without touching its politics. “I knew I didn’t want to make a film that could be dismissed as old-fashioned, something that wasn’t relevant to today’s audiences,” he said.“What that ruled out for me immediately was getting bogged down in the politics of the situation.“We don’t have generals in rooms pushing things around on maps. We don’t see Churchill. We barely glimpse the enemy.“It’s a survival story. I wanted to go through the experience with the characters.” Dunkirk, the film Ships carrying members of the BEF leaving Dunkirk Dunkirk is in cinemas from July 21. Sir Winston Churchill “That’s the opportunity that I’ve earned and the one I’ve taken.”Nolan added that filmmakers tried to use “the actual planes” rather than resorting to CGI for all scenes, drawing on Spitfire experts about how to recreate the most realistic dogfights. Dunkirk, the film “The story has not been told in modern cinema, not since the 1950s, when Leslie Norman made a black-and-white version [starring John Mills and Richard Attenborough],” he said.“One reason is that it’s a massive event that needs to be portrayed on a huge scale, which requires a substantial budget.“That comes from Hollywood studios. The studios are interested in films about Americans, and there were no Americans involved.“So I didn’t want to try and take on this subject until I had enough trust from a studio that they would let me make it as a British film, but with an American budget. The finished film, out later this month, stars Sir Kenneth Branagh, Sir Mark Rylance, Tom Hardy and Cillian Murphy, with a cameo for pop star Harry Styles.Nolan, who said he had been thinking about the story of Dunkirk for 20 years since taking a sailing trip on a similar route, received help from the Imperial War Museum and veterans, now in their 90s. On June 4, Churchill addressed the House of Commons in a defiant speech including the famous line “we will fight on the beaches…”, as he hailed the ” miracle of deliverance” but warned: “Wars are not won by evacuations.” The 2017 film Churchillcenter_img Ships carrying members of the BEF leaving Dunkirk Sir Winston Churchill “The idea behind Dunkirk that we’re trying to get across is that it’s not about individual heroics. It’s about communal heroism.“It’s about the tremendous sense of community that was vital to the operation.“That’s what makes the story unique and that’s why I think it has always served as a rallying point for British people.“I also think it’s a universal story – about the individual drive for survival. Speaking of intense physical demands on the actors, including adverse weather conditions and scenes in the English Channel, he added: “But however challenging our process became, we were always aware that our trials were nothing compared to what people experienced in 1940. A picture dated June 1940 showing troops moving forward the sea near Dunkirk to embark 'Little Ships' Churchill became Prime Minister on May 10th, 1940. Within two weeks, the British Expeditionary Forces were trapped on the north coast of France before withdrawing to Dunkirk.From May 26th, an evacuation began slowly, with only 7,669 men plucked safely from the shores.But over the following eight days, a total of 338,226 soldiers had been rescued by the combined might of the British Armed Forces and a fleet of 800 boats, including a flotilla of fishing boats and pleasure craft assembled for the seemingly-impossible job. A picture dated June 1940 showing troops moving forward the sea near Dunkirk to embark ‘Little Ships’ The 2017 film Churchill Nolan, the director behind Batman Begins, The Dark Knight, Inception and Interstellar, said he had pitched the film by telling Warner Bros he wanted to create a cinematic world which would make the audience they were in the cockpit of a Spitfire, feeling the sand on the beaches or bobbing in a small boat towards a warzone.

Health minister takes on protesting doctors and Diko

first_imgHealth Minister Giorgos Pamboridis said on Monday that the disputed transfer of a doctor from a rural hospital to Limassol has taken place and challenged the five physicians who had threatened to resign over the move to go ahead and do so.The outspoken minister said his ministry is ready to bear the brunt of a possible mass resignation of five doctors from the Limassol general hospital, who had sent him a letter threatening to walk out if a physician at the Kyperounda hospital’s pulmonary clinic, was transferred to their department. The doctors reportedly said in their letter that their colleague was inefficient and behaving unprofessionally.“The state will not be blackmailed by anyone. Neither in intensive care units, or pulmonary clinics or anywhere. And if that means five less doctors, so be it,” Pamboridis said.The doctor in question has reportedly been taking consecutive sick leave days since he was informed about the transfer. Pamboridis had to explain to MPs last month why his ministry had not gone ahead with the transfer. At the time, Pamboridis said that they had postponed the move, not because they succumbed to blackmail, but because his patients needed him.The doctor has since been transferred to Limassol.“I told them (MPs) not to be in a hurry,” he said.Pamboridis also said that some reactions over the recent resignations of ICU doctors from the Nicosia general hospital were over the top and had ulterior motives. The health ministry came under fire by state doctors’ union Pasyki last week when it blamed the ministry for inaction over the departure of four doctors from Nicosia general’s ICU over the last year.“Since May, nine doctors resigned in total, out of 980. Is that too big of a number?” Pamboridis asked. He pointed out that when in 2012, 22 doctors walked out in one night over pay cuts no one had protested, not even Pasyki.There are 980 state doctors, he said, which is the largest number of doctors ever serving in state hospitals. He also rejected claims that more patients were visiting state hospitals.“Those who talk without a case study should not do it lightly,” he said.The minister also took on Diko leader and presidential candidate Nicolas Papadopoulos who went on Cybc television on Monday to criticise health reform and the state of public hospitals.The National Health Scheme (NHS) is the greatest social reform promoted in Cyprus since the introduction of the Social Insurance Fund in 1960, Pamboridis said in response to Papadopoulos’ statement that the proposed NHS was just another tax.He also asked Papadopoulos whether his claims that he has the minister on tape making promises to insurance companies that he would push for a multi-insurance NHS constitutes a criminal offence.“Since he is a fellow lawyer he should read law 92 1 of 1996, article 3, and tell us if ‘we have him on tape’ could be deemed a criminal offence,” Pamporidis said.The minister said that ever since he assumed his duties as minister he has been promoting the single-payer system, which is the system the government wants.“If he has me on tape I challenge him to make this recording public, as well as the place and way of its production, to see if it is genuine on the one hand and if it is the full recording or a part of it on the other,” he said.He also made a swipe at Papadopoulos by saying that unlike the Diko leader he does not ask cameramen to follow him around whenever he visits a public hospital, and called on all presidential candidates to stop slandering state hospitals “with fake news”.You May LikeLuxury Crossover SUV I Search AdsThese SUVs Are The Cream Of The Crop.
