Biden tasks Harris with tackling migrant influx on US-Mexico border US President Joe Biden has put Vice-President Kamala Harris in charge of controlling migration at the southern border following a big influx of new arrivals.

HiIndia Newsdesk Mr Biden said he was giving her a “tough job” but that she was “the most qualified person to do it”. The numbers of people arriving have grown since Mr Biden took office. They include hundreds of unaccompanied minors who are being held in immigration detention facilities. Mr Biden’s predecessor, Donald Trump, was widely criticised over his government’s treatment of young migrants at the USMexico border. Since January, the Biden administration has reversed a policy of turning away unaccompanied children, instead choosing to process them and place them with sponsoring families in the US.

Oscar-nominated actor George Segal dies ages 87

US gun control: Biden calls for a ban on assault weapons

Boulder shooting: Ten victims and suspect identified by police

HiIndia Newsdesk Colorado officials have identified the gunman and 10 victims aged between 20- and 65-years-old who were killed in a mass shooting inside a grocery store. The attack at a King Soopers market in Boulder ended when police arrested the lone suspect after exchanging gunfire.

Who are the victims?

Their names are: Denny Stong, 20 Neven Stanisic, 23 Rikki Olds, 25 Tralona Bartkowiak, 49 Suzanne Fountain, 59 Teri Leiker, 51 Eric Talley, 51 Kevin Mahoney, 61 Lynn Murray, 62 Jody Waters, 65

Who is the suspect?

HiIndia Newsdesk George Segal, the US actor who was Oscar-nominated for his performance in Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf?, has died at the age of 87. The New Yorker starred alongside Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton in the 1966 film adaptation of Edward Albee’s play. He went on to play comic roles in shows like The Goldbergs and Just Shoot Me. His wife Sonia Segal said she and her family were “devastated” to confirm he died on Tuesday in California. She added Segal had died “due to complications from bypass surgery”.

Ten people were killed at a supermarket in Colorado on Monday

HiIndia Newsdesk President Joe Biden has vowed to take “common-sense steps” to crack down on firearms following two mass shootings in the US in less than a week. He renewed his call to ban assault weapons and high-capacity magazines and urged Congress to pass bills that would end loopholes in background checks. Mr Biden was speaking a day after 10 people were shot dead in a Colorado

grocery store. Eight people were killed inside spas in Georgia last week. But the president has an uphill task. The right to bear arms is protected by the Second Amendment to the US Constitution. While Democrats have called for stricter gun control measures in the aftermath of mass shootings, many conservatives, including former President Donald Trump, see any restrictions as infringing on this constitutional right.

Centre said there is no direct link of the new variant detected with the ongoing surge in the state. While Gujarat, Pune, Delhi and Haryana have banned public celebrations of Holi, Mumbai has placed restrictions on the festival. The Uttar Pradesh government has issued a set of guidelines asking senior citizens and vulnerable groups to stay away from celebrations and said no processions or gatherings will be allowed without prior administrative permission.

India Delays Big Exports Of AstraZeneca Shot As Infections Surge: Report

HiIndia Newsdesk New Delhi: India has put a temporary hold on all major exports of the AstraZeneca coronavirus shot made by the Serum Institute of India (SII), the world’s biggest vaccine-maker, to meet domestic demand as infections

Nitish has adopted RSS-BJP culture: Rahul

HiIndia Newsdesk Rahul Gandhi on Wednesday said Bihar chief minister Nitish Kumar has completely transformed himself into the RSS-BJP mould, arguing that the forces which disrobed democracy in this brutal manner cannot be called a government. The former Congress president, who has often been accused of nurturing a soft corner for Nitish, seems to have finally given up with the realisation that the Janata Dal United leader has adopted the RSS-BJP culture as manifested through the mindless violence against MLAs on the Assembly premises. Rahul was one among many Opposition leaders who felt Nitish’s political philosophy was not in tune with the RSS ideology and he would return sooner or later. Tuesday’s incident shocked many political parties as they issued a joint statement condemning the police brutality which they described as an “unprecedented attack on India’s democracy”.

The move will also affect supplies to the GAVI/WHObacked global COVAX vaccine-sharing facility, through which 64 lower-income countries are supposed to get doses from SII, the programme’s procurement and distributing partner UNICEF told Reuters. “We understand that deliveries of COVID-19 vaccines to lower-income economies participating in the COVAX facility will likely face delays following a setback in securing export licences for further doses of COVID-19 vaccines produced by the Serum Institute of India (SII), expected to be shipped in March and April,” UNICEF said in an email.

Man thrashed, forced to chant ‘Pakistan Murdabad’ slogan in Delhi; one arrested

Modi government passes Delhi bill in Parliament

HiIndia Newsdesk

HiIndia Newsdesk In a horrific video doing the rounds on social media, a man in Delhi’s Khajuri Khas was seen mercilessly thrashing another person as he forced him to chant “Hindustan Zindabad” and “Pakistan Murdabad” slogans. Taking note of the incident after the video went viral, a case was registered against the attackers. One of the accused was arrested, Delhi Police said late Wednesday night. As per reports, the man seen in the video is an accused in Delhi riots case that rocked the northeast area of the national capital in 2020. Delhi Police said the main accused seen in the video was arrested and an FIR registered based on the viral video clip. The video begins with a person forcing a man who is lying on the road to chant ‘Pakistan Murdabad’ slogans. Another man, who is not seen in the video, asks him to raise his volume as his attacker holds him by his collar. As the main accused beat him up, he kept asking the man to chant “Hindustan Zinadabad” and ”Pakistan Murdabad” slogans, the video purportedly showed.

The Narendra Modi government found little support outside its ranks when it passed a bill in Parliament on Wednesday that is being seen as a bid to clip the wings of the Arvind Kejriwal dispensation in Delhi. Some of the parties opposed to the changes sought to be brought in through the Government of National Capital Territory of Delhi (Amendment) Bill, 2021, staged a walkout as the Rajya Sabha voted it in.Of all the Opposition parties, the Trinamul Congress made a particular point of being present for the consideration and passage of the bill despite the first phase of Assembly elections in Bengal being just a couple of days away. Trinamul leader Derek O’Brien made a lastminute effort to delay the voting by urging the Chair to invoke the residuary powers provided under Rule 266 of the Rajya Sabha.

North Korea fires two ballistic missiles into Sea of Japan

773.526.8353 MIDWEST / EASTCOAST

AstraZeneca COVID-19 vaccine 76% effective in updated US trial results The latest data was based on 190 infections among more than 32,400 participants in the United States, Chile and Peru. The earlier interim data was based on 141 infections through Feb. 17.

HiIndia Newsdesk North Korea has fired two ballistic missiles into the Sea of Japan, says the US and Japan - the first such test since Joe Biden became US president.

There was another on Tuesday near the end of the India innings. You should not confront an opposition player on the field. It’s just not done. And the toothless International Cricket Council have done nothing.”

The Pandya’s, who lost their father just a couple of months back, shared their pain and sense of satisfaction after Krunal’s success in the first match. “Our father passed away in the early morning on January 16 and that day I was playing Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy match in Vadodara. He was supposed to come to watch the match and he had kept his backpack ready with his clothes, shoes, and hat. So when I got to play my debut match here in Pune, I took that bag along with me to the dressing room. So that he could be here while I was playing,” said Krunal while speaking with Hardik in a post-match interaction. “This was the first time our father was in

the dressing room with us while you made your debut and he will always be with us,” said Hardik, who was with his father when he breathed his last. Listening to his elder brother, Hardik said,” Having seen you batting, I really felt-good I got out because I saw something special today.” After his knock, Krunal broke down in tears during a post-innings interaction with Murali Kartik. Krunal then asked for the interview to be cut short. The cameras later showed his brother Hardik Pandya going up to him and clasping him in a hug.

When Paula Begoun is introduced to her audience comprising 100+ members on a Zoom call, she assumes a calm demeanour, ready to bust some beauty myths and talk about the many products she will be launching in the second phase of her revolutionary skincare brand, Paula’s Choice. Her journey in the industry has been a long one, and it began when her book Blue Eye Shadow Should Be Illegal was published in 1986. From there, it has only been an onward journey. From being referred to as “The Cosmetics Cop” at Oprah Winfrey’s show, to publishing 19 bestselling books and launching her own beauty brand on the internet in 1995, Begoun is one of the few established no-nonsense insiders of the beauty industry where rampant misinformation continues to thrive.

Do you think Indian consumers have become more informed? What could be the possible reason?

While there is definitely more information available and accessible to consumers, regrettably, a lot of the skincare advice on the internet is often misleading or outright wrong. People end up making serious skincare mistakes that are either damaging to the skin or not helpful.

‘Frustrating to see the utterly erroneous things about skin and skincare being repeated over and over,’ says author, and founder of skincare brand, Paula’s Choice

Even when consumers can find reliable studies and research, it’s incredibly difficult to decipher. I’ve been studying skincare for 40 years and have a background in science, and even I can get confused. I have to continually read studies to keep up with the facts about what works and what doesn’t.

What myths you would like to debunk for your Indian consumer base?

Myths, by definition, are not based on facts, but rather fantasy or folklore and have nothing to do with science or research. These myths aren’t merely an opinion, they are according to what current research says is true. Sadly, there are so many myths it’s impossible to list them all, but here are a few that come to my mind first: Skin repairs itself best at night Research shows just the opposite is true: skin actually heals better during the day than it does at night because during the day, you are moving around more, leading to increased blood flow and oxygen intake, which, in turn, stimulates healing far more than just lying still in bed does.

ot getting enough sleep is detrimental to both your health and productivity. Yawn. We’ve heard it all before. But results from one study impress just how bad a cumulative lack of sleep can be on performance. Subjects in a lab-based sleep study who were allowed to get only six hours of sleep a night for two weeks straight functioned as poorly as those who were forced to stay awake for two days straight. The kicker is the people who slept six hours per night thought they were doing just fine.

Six Hours Of Sleep Is As Bad As None At All Getting six hours of sleep a night simply isn’t enough for you to be your most productive. In fact, it’s just as bad as not sleeping at all.

Why Six Hours of Sleep Isn’t Enough

As you can imagine, the subjects who were allowed to sleep eight hours per night had the highest performance on average. Subjects who got only four hours a night did worse each day. The group who got six hours of sleep seemed to be holding their own, until around day 10 of the study. In the last few days of the experiment, the subjects who were restricted to a maximum of six hours of sleep per night showed cognitive performance that was as bad as the people who weren’t allowed to sleep at all. Getting only six hours of shut-eye was as bad as not sleeping for two days straight. The group who got only four hours of sleep each night

s people age, they become weak, get tired quickly, frequently lose their balance, have falls and become forgetful. Some elders are more symptomatic than others. Relatives often have their own diagnosis — age, dementia or Alzheimer’s. The truth may actually be a combination of all these factors. In the 20th century, the discovery of vitamins, particularly Vitamin B12 or cyanocobalamine, shed new light on these symptoms. The Nobel prize was awarded to two sets of people for discovering and synthesising this vitamin. Cyanocobalamin is an “essential” vitamin. It is needed for red blood cell formation and proper functioning of nerve cells (neuron), production of DNA and RNA as well as proper metabolism and utilisation of food (carbohydrates, proteins and fats). Meat, eggs and milk contain Vitamin B12, so a deficiency can occur in vegans. For naturally occurring Vitamin B12 to be absorbed, there has to be adequate stomach acid. The B12 has to combine with the “intrinsic factor” produced by the cells lining the stomach. This compound is then absorbed in the intestines. The gut bacteria also independently manufacture Vitamin B12. Vegans get some B12 from this source. When Vitamin B12 levels are low, the production of red blood cells is altered, causing megaloblastic anaemia. Appropriate Vitamin B12 levels are needed during pregnancy. In conjunction with folic acid, it prevents developmental defects of the brain and spinal cord. It also helps maintain bone health and prevent osteoporosis. It decreases homocysteine levels in the blood and hence prevents age-related macular degeneration of the eye. The vitamin is essential for the production of serotonin, a mood-elevating chemical. Vitamin B12 supplements can help elevate mood and tackle depression aggravated because of an existing

their sleepiness as being all that bad, even as their cognitive performance was going downhill. The no-sleep group progressively rated their sleepiness level higher and higher. By the end of

The same advice experts have batted around for decades is probably a good place to start: Have a consistent bedtime; don’t look at electronic screens at least 30 minutes before bed; limit alcohol intake (alcohol makes many people sleepy, but it can also decrease the quality and duration of sleep); and get enough exercise. the experiment, their sleepiness had jumped by two levels. But the six-hour group only jumped one level. Those findings raise the question about how people cope when they get insufficient sleep, perhaps suggesting that they’re in denial (willful or otherwise) about their present state. Other causes of sleep problems include physical, neurological, and psychological issues. Even stress and worry can negatively affect sleep. The CDC has called lack of sleep a health problem, and for good reason. Diet, exercise, mental health, and physical health all affect our ability to sleep, and in return, our ability to perform to our best.

Foods That Are High in Vitamin B12 1. Animal liver and kidneys

Organ meats are some of the most nutritious foods out there. Liver and kidneys, especially from lamb, are rich in vitamin B12.

• As the stomach itself produces less acid with increasing age; 30 per cent of people over the age of 50 years develop decreased stomach acidity. • Aggravated by thyroid disease and diabetes. • Metformin can interfere with B12 absorption. • Sometimes people with acid reflux take antacids and acid-suppressing medication such as omeprazole and pantoprazole for months. • Parts of the stomach and small intestine may have been surgically removed. This can also occur with weight loss surgery. • Crohn’s or coeliac disease may damage the intestines. • An autoimmune disease (pernicious anaemia) can attack the lining of the stomach. • The diet itself may be deficient in the vitamin. • Alcohol and smoking can damage the stomach lining.

Clams are small, chewy shellfish that are packed with nutrients. This mollusk is a lean source of protein and contains very high concentrations of vitamin B12. You can get more than 7,000% of the DV in just 20 small clams

3. Sardines

Sardines are small, soft-boned saltwater fish. They’re usually sold canned in water, oil, or sauces, though you can also buy them fresh.

4. Beef

Beef is an excellent source of vitamin B12. One grilled flat iron steak (about 190 grams) provides 467% of the DV for vitamin B12

deficiency. Signs and symptoms of Vitamin B12 deficiency are vague. The person may appear pale, lose weight, have palpitations, muscle weakness, fatigue, tingling in the extremities and loss of sensation in the hands and feet. It can cause an unsteady, wide-based gait and result in loss of balance. There may be mental confusion, forgetfulness and personality changes. Once deficiency of Vitamin B12 is suspected, it can be confirmed by blood tests. The haemoglobin is likely to be low (less than 12mg/dL). The red blood cells are abnormal in appearance and larger than normal. B12 levels in the blood can be tested to confirm the diagnosis. If the B12 levels are very low, injections may be required. Oral supplements are also available.

a time when resolutions similar to this one were being passed in other US cities, such as San Francisco, Seattle, Albany, New York, and St. Paul, Minnesota. Hadden attributed much of the delay to the office of the Consul General of India in Chicago, which opposed the resolution, and with Mayor Lightfoot’s office also becoming involved, the administration negotiated the resolution down to less than half its original length. However, Hadden’s resolution came unstuck despite having been scaled back to remove specific language that sought to compare Modi to former President Donald Trump. The resolution also no longer made mention of mob lynchings of Muslims, or quotes by a high-ranking official comparing undocumented people in India to termites. Hadden’s resolution also expressed disappointment at the Indian government’s restrictions on Jammu and Kashmir as well as its passing of the CAA, which added a religion-focused provision to citizenship rules. Some 30 people gathered in front of Hadden’s office in Rogers Park on Monday morning to protest the resolution. Flyers referring to Hadden as “Maria Hateman” criticized her for sowing division among Indians in Chicago, and speakers appealed to her to create a resolution against “terrorist countries” instead.

Derogatory image

“We Indians here, Hindus, Muslims, Sikh, Christian, we are all united here,” said Sohan Joshi, a protest organizer. “Our children are living in harmony here. Why does (Hadden) have to bring a resolution that says we are not united?” Amitabh Mittal, general secretary of the World Hindu Council of America, who opposed the resolution, said before the vote, “This has nothing to do with America, but it creates a very derogatory image for future Indian generations.” MIDWEST / EASTCOAST

Barai’s view

Dr Bharat Barai, a Chicago-based eminent IndianAmerican, welcomed the decision of the Chicago City Council. Dr. Barai, who along with several Indian-Americans had organised a campaign against the anti-CAA resolution, alleged that the Council on American Islamic Relations was behind the efforts to pass the resolution that was sponsored by Ald. Hadden. Indeed, ahead of the resolution, the Indian Consulate in Chicago is also believed to have reached out to the Mayor and all 50 Aldermen of the Chicago City Council. During the outreach by the consulate and the Indian-American community, most Aldermen had no background knowledge on any issues mentioned in the resolution. “We consistently reached out to all the 50 aldermen. We expressed our views against the decisive agenda of the resolution,” said community leader Amitabh Mittal. There was a wide acknowledgement that this was not a matter for the city council to get involved in. During the vote on the resolution, several aldermen of the council also voiced opposition to such measures.

Citizenship is not the only issue creating tension in India, nor in Chicago’s Indian American communities. Supporters of the resolution say they are concerned about what they see as the deterioration of India’s democracy: the revocation of Article 370 in the Indian constitution that ensured autonomy to Jammu and Kashmir; the crackdown on media freedoms and arrests of journalists around the country; and the more recent agricultural deregulation, which resulted in protests so large that the new laws had to be put on hold. Chicago’s council from time to time has voiced its opinion on national and international issues. It’s also not the first time a South Asian political controversy has played out through 49th Ward politics.

Making up their minds just over a phone call, the friend, now in their 60s, went on a 4500 km journey that took a month and 10 days.

ometimes all you need is a great friend and a tank of gas”. Well, the famous lines from the Ridley Scott classic Thelma & Louise must surely be ringing in the ears of these three college friends from Chandigarh when they decided to go on a road trip. Making up their minds just over a phone call, the friends, now in their 60s, went on a 4500-km journey that took a month and 10 days. Speaking to Conde Nast Traveller, the trio -- Robin Nakai, wife Amrita, and their friend Usha -- explained how they drove through Udaipur, Mumbai, Ganpatipule, Panjim, Hampi, Bengaluru, and Chennai before flying to the Andamans. On their return journey,

Now In Their 60s, 3 College Friends Take 4,500 Km Road-Trip

However, in the end, the three friends made new memories, that too in the time of the pandemic.

‘Tell me, will Krunal play for India? Khelega yeh?’ Pandya’s late father used to ask

they stopped at Puducherry. “We have been a trio since the days of Bob Dylan and Woodstock in the 70s. We’ve done some crazy things together and always had each other’s back,” Robin added. The roads might be smooth in most of the places, but as Robin described his driving experience in Andaman, one should always be prepared to face the unknown. Robin adds that they took a flight to the Andamans after making stops at Bengaluru, Hampi, and Chennai and drove down from Port Blair in the south to Diglipur in the north. The distance between the two is 300km, but they spent 16 hours because of the road conditions. They passed through some of the dense forests with an escort vehicle. However, in the end, the three friends made new memories, that too in the time of the pandemic.

Bill Gates Says His Coding Skills Are Now “Rusty”

Yuvraj Singh’s Cheeky Comment On Mohammad Kaif’s Pic When Krunal Pandya broke down at the thought of his late father in the post-innings chat with the broadcasters after walloping the fastest ODI fifty on debut, his long-time coach Jitendra Singh rewound to a particular moment. “Tell me honestly, will Krunal play for India? Khelega yeh?’ is what his father used to ask. Not many know that more than Hardik, it was Krunal that his father Himanshu bhai dreamt would play for India. I can understand where KP’s emotional reactions came from. Krunal has his father’s name written on his bat.” But circumstances conspired to derail the dream. Around 2008, his father suffered his first heart attack. During the following years, till 2014, the family business didn’t do well. “Himanshubhai’s heart attack was the first blow. Then his business went down. The money dried up. One dream he had was about Krunal playing for India. Hardik was still young, then. But the financial troubles meant Krunal was distressed and distracted. He was young but the elder son. As the years went, especially during financial troubles, he started to drift. ‘Paisa kahan sey aayega (where will the money come from), how will the household run, should I get a regular job once I grow up? Thoughts like that,” coach Jitendra aka Jeetubhai told

Former Indian cricketer Mohammad Kaif ’s Instagram is all about the recently concluded Road Safety World T20 Series. Fans were delighted to see the cricketer with other iconic players, once again on the field. Kaif posted a star-studded picture featuring himself along with Sachin Tendulkar, Irfan Pathan, Yuvraj Singh and others. In the caption, Kaif praised Tendulkar saying, “Last few days we saw him flying high on the ground. And now that the tournament is won, he remains so grounded while we fly. @sachintendulkar paaji.” Yuvraj Singh dropped a tongue-in-cheek comment on the post. “Aur bhi log hain team main bhai sahab,” he wrote. The Indian legends beat Sri Lanka Legends by 14 runs to clinch the trophy. Tendulkar shared the same snap on his Instagram timeline, captioning it as, “A team that chills together, wins together!”

Drone Flies Dangerously Close To Erupting Volcano

A drone has captured incredible footage of a volcano erupting from a dangerously close distance. The Fagradalsfjall volcano eruption had red lava spewing out of the ground and a crimson glow lighting up the night sky near Iceland’s capital Reykjavik on Friday night. It was an eruption that Icelanders had been expecting for several weeks. It did not cause any injuries or major disruptions.

Ever wondered if Bill Gates could still write the code that made him a billionaire? As the co-founder of Microsoft, Bill Gates is considered to be one of the pioneers of today’s home computing, but he admits that his programming skills are now a little “rusty”. Bill Gates, 65, took part in a Reddit ‘Ask Me Anything’ or AMA session following the publication of his new book, How to Avoid a Climate Disaster. During the AMA session, he answered a number of queries from curious fans and touched upon a number of topics, including the importance of synthetic meat and electric cars in combating climate change. But when one Reddit user asked Mr Gates if he still coded on his computer, the billionaire said his coding skills were now rusty, although he still loves trying new tools. “My code no longer goes into shipping products so I am rusty,” wrote Bill Gates. “I do like to try the new tools to understand how they help. I just did a review of the low-code tools where there is a lot of great innovation.” Bill Gates has been fixated on programming since he was 13. “I was 13 years old when I fell in love with programming,” he wrote on his blog, Gates Notes, in 2018. “My friends and I would spend hours creating new programs and plugging away in BASIC,” he said, adding that the introduction to computer science changed the course of his life.
