More bad news for Hillary in polls Amid speculation that Joe Biden might enter the 2016 presidential race, polls find the vice president is more popular than Clinton — among both Democrats and the general electorate ARUN KUMAR, WASHINGTON

email saga: Hillary says ‘I’m sorry’ at last

mid the email controversy dogging Hillary Clinton, new polls brought more bad news for Democratic frontrunner showing her losing to Republican rivals Donald Trump and Jeb Bush in two first nominating states. In the race for Democratic nomination too, self-proclaimed socialist Bernie Sanders has jumped out to a nine-point lead over Clinton in New Hampshire, and he’s gained ground on her among Iowa voters, according to a pair of brand-new NBC News/Marist polls. Amid speculation that Joe Biden might enter the 2016 presidential race, the polls found that the vice president is more popular than Clinton — among both Democrats and the general electorate. He also matches up better in general-election contests than Clinton does.

WASHINGTON: Just a day after declining to apologise for using a private email server as secretary of state, Hillary Clinton abruptly shifted her tone to say sorry as her poll numbers sank to a new low. “That was a mistake,” the Democratic presidential frontrunner said in an interview with ABC News on September 8 hoping to put an end to the controversy that has dogged her campaign and pulled down her favor-

In Iowa, Biden leads Clinton 74 percent to 67 percent in favorability among Democrats and 42 percent to 32 percent in the general electorate. In New Hampshire, Biden leads Clinton 76 percent to 69 per-

cent among Democrats and 46 percent to 36 percent in the general electorate. And in hypothetical general-election contests, the NBC/Marist polls found that Bush and Trump both beat Clinton in

Iowa. While Bush beats Clinton 50 percent to 39 percent, Trump gets the better of her 48 percent, Clinton 43 percent. But Biden performs better. Bush beats Biden by 46 percent to 44 percent, but Biden gets the better of Trump 49 percent to 45 percent. In New Hampshire, Bush beats Clinton 48 percent to 43 percent,

ability among Democrats by 10 points in a month. “I'm sorry about that. I take responsibility,” she said, acknowledging that she should have used separate accounts for work and personal business. “I take responsibility and I am trying to be as transparent as I possibly can.” The abrupt shift in Hillary’s tone came just a day after she said in Iowa that she doesn't need to apologise because “what I did was allowed.”

while Clinton pips Trump by 46 percent to 45 percent. Bush also beats Biden 46 percent to 45 percent, but the vice president beats Trump 50 percent to 41 percent. In New Hampshire, Sanders leads Clinton by 41 percent to 32 percent of Democratic voters with Biden getting the support of 16 percent.

Kentucky gay couples get license to marry US territory to chemically castrate sex offenders

WASHINGTON: A county in Kentucky state has started issuing marriage licences to gay couples after the county clerk was jailed for refusing to do so, a media report said on September 5. William Smith Jr. and James Yates on September 4 became the first same-sex couple to receive a marriage license in Rowan county. It was their sixth attempt to procure the licence, CNN reported. “We’re just really happy right now to finally get married and have it recognized here,” Yates, who proposed to Smith this year after a 10-year rela-

tionship, said shortly before getting the license. Dozens of supporters of same-sex marriage chanted “love has won” as they exited the building.

But county clerk Kim Davis sent word from the jail that she considers marriage licenses void unless she approves them, her lawyer Mat Staver said. “They are not worth the paper they are written on,” he said. Davis had refused to give licenses to same-sex couples on grounds that issuing the licenses would violate her Christian convictions against samesex marriage. A federal judge ordered her to jail, ruling she was in contempt of court for refusing to issue the licenses and not allowing her deputies to distribute them for her.

Pentagon to overhaul Syrian training program IANS, WASHINGTON

he Pentagon is considering an overhaul of its botched training program for Syrian rebels against the Islamic State (IS) extremist group, the New York Times reported. Citing US Defense Department officials, the report said the options include dropping larger number of US-trained fighters into safer areas and providing better intelligence and improving their combat skills, Xinhua reported. Though all the plans are still under consideration, the shift in strategy came after the US training program ended up as a fiasco in July when the first round of 54 Syrian trainees were attacked by a Syrian militant group before they

could engage in fighting against the IS. After receiving the training overseas, about a dozen fighters returned to Syria to visit their families and were detained by the Nusra Front, Al Qaeda’s affiliate in Syria, the Times quoted a Syrian

Army defector who joined the rebels as saying. Then, a delegation sent for negotiation by the Syrian opposition group Division 30, from which the first 54 Syrian trainees came, were again captured by the Nusra Front.

ARUN KUMAR, WASHINGTON

aced with a rate of 64.2 reported rapes per 100,000 people — more than double the US national average of 25.2 — the US island territory of Guam plans to chemically castrate convicted sex offenders. The Guam Legislature passed by a narrow 8-7 vote a controversial bill for the creation of a pilot program to screen and refer convicted sex offenders to undergo anti-androgen treatment, or chemical castration, one week before their release. “This is a good day for the island of Guam,” said Republican Senator Brant McCreadie, who introduced the bill. “It’s a stern, loudand-clear message to any offenders out there that there’s going to be consequences.” But Democratic Vice Speaker Benjamin J. Cruz expressed concern that the bill could spark other legislation based on the eye-for-aneye punishment model. “Is there going to be a piece of legislation to cut out tongues, cut out hands?” he asked. Nine US states — California, Florida, Georgia, Iowa, Louisiana, Montana, Oregon, Texas and Wisconsin — have versions of chemical castration in their laws. Both California and Florida, for instance, require mandatory injections for repeat sex offenders and

discretionary injections for firsttime offenders, although the Florida law has only been invoked a few times since its passage in 1997. Chemical castration, according to CNN, involves administering medication — via injection or tablets — to take away sexual interest and make it impossible for a person to perform sexual acts. The effects are reversible, after the person stops taking the drug. But they also have side effects, such as osteoporosis, changes in cardiovascular health, blood fat levels, blood pressure and symptoms that mimic women’s menopause. The practice of forced chemical castration has been called “inhuman treatment” by Amnesty International.

OROP becomes reality Veterans happy but stir to continue till government gives ‘written assurance’ that those taking premature retirement are not excluded IANS, NEW DELHI

utting an end to months of speculation, the government on September 5 announced it will be implementing ‘One Rank One Pension’ (OROP) for the armed forces. The veterans, who have been agitating for OROP, initially rejected the government’s scheme which excluded those taking premature retirement (PMR), but were later assured by Defense Minister Manohar Parrikar that the clause on voluntary retirement will be removed. Even as ex-servicemen representative Maj. Gen. Satbir Singh (retd), following a meeting with Parrikar, said he was “satisfied” soon after reaching the agitation site at Jantar Mantar, it was announced that the protest will continue. Wing Commander M.M.S. Paintal (retd) told IANS that the hunger strike will continue till they get a written assurance. “We will end the indefinite hunger strike when we get a written assurance that those taking premature retirement are not excluded. The agitation will, however, continue after that as well,” Paintal told IANS.

Ex-servicemen rejoicing after government announced to implement OROP policy, at Jantar Mantar in New Delhi.

What became the major sticking point on Saturday was that the minister had said “personnel who voluntarily retire will not be covered under the OROP scheme”. Maj. Gen. Singh told reporters after his meeting: “The defense minister verbally confirmed there is no VRS in armed forces, there is just premature retirement. He will talk with the prime minister and let us know in a few days.”

Asked if they were satisfied, he said: “After this statement, yes, we are satisfied.” He, however, said it was not an end. “There are other issues, which are yet to be done but the major issue was PMR which was not supposed to be a part of the note. How it came we do not know.” Soon after returning to Jantar Mantar, he announced the indefi-

nite fast will end with a written assurance on not excluding PMR, but the agitation will continue. “We do not accept the revision in five years as offered by the government. This will kill the definition of the OROP,” he said. Regarding the formation of a committee, the veteran said the protesters want the government to form a committee which would directly be under the defense minister.

OROP: What veterans want l Including those with voluntary/premature retirement: The govt announced excluding those with voluntary retirement under OROP. The veterans met Defense Minister Manohar Parrikar over the issue, and said they were satisfied with the assurance that those with premature retirement will be included. l Calling off indefinite fast: The veterans say they will end their indefinite fast when the government gives a written confirmation on including those with premature retirement under OROP. l Agitation to continue: The agitation will continue till other issues are sorted out. This includes revision every five years, while the veterans want it every two years. l No one-member judicial committee: The veterans want a fivemember committee which is directly under the defense minister. Members should include three retired veterans, one serving member of the forces and one person designated by the government. l Committee report time: While the government sought the onemember judicial committee report in six months, the veterans want the report in one month. l Calculating pension: Veterans want average of top pensioner to be considered for formulating the quantum of the pension. The govt formula is taking out an average of different pensions for the same rank.

Sheena murder: DNA tests positive, financials being probed Maria shunted out, Javed Ahmed new CP MUMBAI: Mumbai Police Commissioner Rakesh Maria was on September 8 promoted as the new Director General of Police (Home Guards), and Javed Ahmed appointed in his place. A top home department official said Ahmed was asked to take charge from Maria with immediate effect on the same day itself in view

IANS, MUMBAI

n a major breakthrough, the forensic experts have established that parts of bones and skull recovered from Raigad forests indeed belong to Sheena Bora, after matching them with DNA samples of other family members including her mother and prime accused Indrani Mukerjea. This was expected to give a fillip to the ongoing probe into the case, as the DNA tests of the victim matched with her mother and other

family members. The DNA samples of Sheena’s bones and skull were compared with that of samples collected from her mother Indrani, her biological father Sidhartha Das of Kolkata and her brother Mikhail Bora of Guwahati. Earlier on September 6 Mumbai Police took Khanna to Kolkata where he led the investigators to the sport from where they recovered the shoes used by the prime accused when they went to dump Sheena’s body at Gagode, he added. The police also recovered part of

of the ensuing festive season of Ganeshotsav, Eid and Navratri. Maria, who was Rakesh Maria overseeing investigations into the Sheena Bora murder case, was due to be promoted on September 30, but the process was advanced.

the jewellery of Sheena from there. The police has also widened the scope of the investigations into the financial aspects of the accused with a team of forensic auditors, chartered accountants, income-tax consultants and the Economic Offenses Wing (EOW). “This team is focussing on studying the various companies, the various investments, the various properties not only in India but also in Britain, Spain and other parts of India, belonging to the Mukerjeas,” Rakesh Maria said.

Bihar battle: Left parties join hands, SP to go alone IANS, PATNA

ix Left parties have joined hands for the first time in Bihar to contest the upcoming assembly polls as a ‘bloc’ to take on the BJP-led NDA and the grand alliance of the JD-U, the RJD and the Congress. Meanwhile, the Election Commission on September 9 announced the assembly elections in the state will be held in five phases, beginning October 12 and ending November 5. The vote count will take place on November 8. “The model code of conduct has come into force with immediate effect,” Chief Election Commissioner Nasim Zaidi said.

Top national leaders of the Communist Party of India, CPIMarxist, CPI-Marxist-Leninist, Forward Bloc, Socialist Unity Centre of India and Revolutionary Socialist Party addressed the convention with an aim to make the Left parties a third and alternative political force in the Bihar polls. CPI-ML general secretary Dipankar Bhattacharya Bhattacharya ruled out the possibility of joining hands with Mulayam Singh Yadav’s Samajwadi Party. “We have formed only a bloc of Left parties,” he said. Having quit the Janata Parivar, the Samajwadi Party has also declared that it will contest all the 243 assembly seats in Bihar.

Bihar:

Scales tilted in BJP’s A favor?

AMULYA GANGULI, NEW DELHI

Mulayam Singh Yadav’s exit will be a psychological blow to the anti-BJP combine because of his stature in neighboring Uttar Pradesh, which led to his nomination as leader of the Janata ‘parivar’ to take on the BJP

lthough the Samajwadi Party (SP) and the Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) do not have much of a political presence in Bihar, their departure from the “secular” alliance cannot but make the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) heave a sigh of relief. Up until now, it had seemed that the assembly elections in the state will be a touch-and-go affair with the BJP failing to repeat its runaway success in last year’s general election when the National Democratic Alliance (NDA) led by it won 31 of the 40 parliamentary seats in the state. That the BJP’s fortunes were sliding was evident from the victory of the previously humiliated Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) and the Janata Dal-United (JDU) in six of the 10 assembly by-elections only three months after their Lok Sabha drubbing.

But, any improvement in the RJD’s and the JD-U’s position has now been partly undone by the decision of the SP and the NCP to walk out of the mahagathbandhan (grand alliance) in protest against the measly allocation of seats to them. Even if the ostensible reason for their decision to break away is the “insult” which they felt over the allocation of five seats to the SP and three to the NCP, it is possible that it is SP supremo Mulayam Singh Yadav’s reluctance to play second fiddle to his OBC (Other Backward Classes) brethren in Bihar which is behind the rupture. The NCP’s Sharad Pawar, too, must have been miffed by the three seats given to his party, while the Congress will contest 40 and the RJD and the JD-U 100 each. But, it is Mulayam Singh Yadav’s exit which will be a psychological blow to the anti-BJP combine because of his stature in neighboring Uttar Pradesh, which led to his nomination as leader of

the Janata “parivar” to take on the BJP at the national level. After the latest developments, however, the future of the “parivar” is in doubt, which will be another matter of satisfaction for the BJP. In Bihar, the jolts suffered by the “secular” alliance have been compounded by Lalu Prasad’s flaunting of the caste card at the combination’s rally in Patna, where the RJD leader’s digs at the upper castes have reportedly unnerved the Congress. Down in the dumps because of its junior status in the alliance, which led to Congress president Sonia Gandhi being the fourth speaker at the rally, the party is apparently scared that Lalu Prasad’s exaltation of his “winning” MY (Muslim-Yadav) camaraderie — the two communities make up 30 percent of the state’s population — will persuade the few remaining Brahmins and Bhumihars still with the Congress to drift away to the waiting arms of the BJP.

Slowing dragon, rising elephant NEW DELHI: Recent events in the Chinese economy and its impact on the world markets merit attention. Nonetheless, post ‘Black Monday’ most markets around the world have recovered and were now closer to their previous levels. However, the incident has drawn the attention of policymakers, especially considering in continuation with the devaluation of yuan by two percent on August 11.

Growth numbers, aided by currency devaluation and stock market volatility, have raised concerns about a deeper malaise in the Chinese economy. Due to the non-transparent nature of the Chinese government some even argue that the worst may be over. Others question the validity of official data and statistics. With investment as a percentage of GDP on the decline while consumption

as a percentage of GDP on the rise, this marks an important shift in China’s economy and this has a great bearing on the world economy in the future. China’s ongoing structural transformation from an investment to a consumption-driven economy is likely to cause some real changes in the world economy. Already, some of the effects are being witnessed. The global commodity price crash is

most likely driven by a slowdown in demand for raw material in the Chinese economy. The most vulnerable economies are the exporting ones that trade in raw materials with China. These include both economies that are closer home to China like Indonesia and Mongolia and far off commodity exporters like Australia and Brazil. The US and India are relatively in a better position as they do not export too

much as a percentage of GDP to China (both lesser than 10 percent). The concern now for most policymakers is ensuring a stable slowdown for the Chinese economy. India’s concerns at present are not so much with respect to the Chinese developments as they are with the developments in the United States. This is because the Federal Reserve can raise interest rates in light of its bettering domestic economy that could lead to possible damage. However, as economists like Larry Summers have argued, it seems unlikely in the wake of recent Chinese developments. Also, India is looking to leverage the opportunity for its economic growth. For economic growth, the pace of economic reforms in the coming years will be the deciding factor. As RBI Governor Raghuram Rajan has said recently, “India is better placed compared to other countries with low current account deficit, and fiscal deficit discipline, moderate inflation, low short-term foreign currency liabilities, very sizeable base of forex reserves.” In the months ahead, much will depend on the how well India is geared up to meeting these challenges.

‘Officer acted unreasonably’

Slammed Indian grandfather’s counsel tells the US trial court the Alabama police officer had no reason to think the man may have committed a crime ARUN KUMAR, WASHINGTON

n Alabama police officer accused of using excessive force against a “noEnglish” speaking Indian grandfather walking in his son’s neighborhood had no reason to think he may have committed a crime, a US court was told. “The question should have been: Is there a language barrier?” said Assistant US Attorney Robert Posey on September 4, the third day of the trial of former police officer Eric Parker, 26, in a Huntsville, Alabama federal court. “They had no reason to try to think of a crime he may have committed,” said Posey as reported by local news site Al.com. He was responding Judge Madeline Hughes Haikala regarding how Parker tackled Sureshbhai Patel, 58, who had arrived from India six days earlier, on Feb 6 when he came on the scene in

Lahiri has been awarded the medal “for enlarging the human story”, according to the White house citation. The medal honors an individual or organization whose work has deepened the nation’s understanding of the human experience, broadened citizens’ engagement with history and literature or helped preserve and expand Americans’ access to cultural resources.

required to investigate due to the neighbor’s call. Posey suggested a jury might find Patel was neither resisting nor pulling away, which would make the takedown unreasonable. Posey called it a maneuvre “guaranteed to cause some injury. Some injury. I’m not saying he meant to break his back”. The jury on September 4 also heard from Johnny Lee Smith, a blackbelt who helped create the martial arts training program now used by police academies in Alabama. Quizzed by federal prosecutors Smith said when officers arrived they believed “crime may be afoot” and that Patel can be seen on the recording to take two, then four, then nine steps away. But the video shows small shuffling steps. “You wouldn’t describe it as escape attempt,” asked prosecutor Saaed Mody. “No, sir,” said Smith.

Depth-sensing camera that works in bright sunlight IANS, WASHINGTON

team led by an IndianAmerican researcher has invented a new imaging technique that will lead depthsensing cameras to work in bright light, especially sunlight, as well as in darkness. Depth-sensing cameras, such as Microsoft’s Kinect controller for video games, are being widely used as 3D sensors. The key is to gather only the bits of light the camera actually needs. The researchers from Carnegie Mellon University (CMU) and University of Toronto created a mathematical model to help programme these devices so that the

camera and its light source work together efficiently. The new technology eliminated extraneous light or “noise” that will, otherwise, wash out the signals needed to detect a scene’s contours.

“We have a way of choosing the light rays we want to capture and only those rays,” said Srinivasa Narasimhan, associate professor of robotics at CMU. “We don’t need new image-pro-

cessing algorithms and we don’t need extra processing to eliminate the noise, because we don’t collect the noise. This is all done by the sensor,” he said. One prototype based on this model synchronizes a laser projector with a common rolling -shutter camera -- the type of camera used in most smartphones -- so that the camera detects light only from points being illuminated by the laser as it scans across the scene. This not only makes it possible for the camera to work under extremely bright light or amid highly reflected or diffused light but also makes it extremely energy efficient.

7,000 asylum seekers pass through Vienna within 24 hours

The Syrian conflict has left thousands of people homeless. People have been fleeing the country in hordes, trying to seek asylum in various countries.

VIENNA: About 7,000 asylum seekers passed through this Austrian capital in 24 hours, the police said. In accordance with its arrangement with the interior ministry, it has not been conducting inspections on passengers on the trains coming from Hungary, allowing them to travel unhindered, Xinhua quoted police spokesperson Gerald Pangl as saying on September 8. It was reported that Hungary has at least for the most part not prevented the onward travel of the asylum seekers through its territory.

ROME: Italian authorities said the increasing number of people arrested for allegedly smuggling refugees across the Mediterranean in latest months had a role in making traffickers change their routes. Austrian police are however maintaining their efforts to catch people smugglers on roads. Only 66 of the 7,000 asylum seekers were said to have made a applications within Austria, with majority moving onward to Germany.

Aus to take 12k Syrian refugees Australia will permanently take 12,000 refugees from war-torn Syria and will expand bombing missions against IS into Syria, prime minister Tony Abbott says IANS, CANBERRA

ustralian Prime Minister Tony Abbott said on September 9 that the country will permanently take 12,000 refugees from war-torn Syria and will expand its bombing mission against IS into Syria “within days”. Abbott said Australia would accept 12,000 Syrian refugees on top of Australia’s annual commitment to take in 13,750 refugees

from around the world, Xinhua reported. “Australia will re-settle an additional 12,000 refugees from the Syria/Iraq conflict,” Abbott announced at a media conference. Abbott said, “Our focus for these new, 12,000 resettlement places will be those most in need of permanent protection... women, children and families from persecuted minorities who have sought temporary refuge in Jordan, Lebanon and Turkey... the most vulnerable of all.”

The decision is in stark contrast to the prime minister’s position from September 6, when he said Australia would only increase the percentage of Syrian refugees within the existing 13,750 quota. At the same press conference, the government also said it would allocate $30.1 million to aid agencies working in the Middle East just a day after the UN High Commission for Refugees (UNHCR) slammed Australia for its lack of contributions in 2015.

Smugglers arrests changed migrant routes to Europe

Meanwhile, Australia has also signed off on expanding air force operations into Syria. Abbot said operation could begin “within days”. Australia already runs bombing mission against IS forces in Iraq. “We cannot defeat Daesh in Iraq unless we defeat Daesh in Syria,” Abbot said. “I emphasize that our aircraft will be targeting IS, not the Assad regime, evil though it is,” the prime minister said.

Over 100 alleged smugglers have been arrested in Italy between June and August only, prosecutors in Palermo said after an operational meeting on September 7. The increased risk of being arrested in Italy would have brought smugglers to focus more and more on alternative routes across the Balkans, according to investigators. The suggestion would be corroborated by the sharp increase in the number of asylum-seekers and migrants passing through the “Western Balkan” route lately. At least 244,855 people arrived in Greece up to August and some 90,000 passed through Serbia, according to UN Refugee Agency (UNHCR).

Queen Elizabeth II becomes Iran deal: More support for Obama longest-reigning monarch ARUN KUMAR, WASHINGTON

resident Barack Obama again warned the Republican controlled Congress that he would veto any move to derail the Iran nuclear deal, but with several more senators backing it, he may not have to wield his pen. The deal between Iran and six world powers led by the US has now gained the support of 42 senators — enough to bottle up a resolution of disapproval in the 100 member senate with a filibuster and spare Obama the need to overturn it. White House, press secretary

IANS, LONDON

ueen Elizabeth II became Britain’s longest-reigning monarch after passing the record set by her great-great-grandmother Queen Victoria. The Queen, who is 89, will have reigned for 63 years and seven months — calculated at 23,226 days, 16 hours and approximately 30 minutes at about 17.30 (local time), BBC reported. Prime Minister David Cameron will lead tributes in the House of Commons and there will be a River Thames salute. The exact moment the Queen reaches the milestone is not known because her father, George VI, passed away in the early hours of February 6, 1952. On the Thames, a flotilla of historic vessels, leisure cruisers and passenger boats will take part in a procession between Tower Bridge and the Houses of Parliament. The bridge will lift as a sign of respect and H.M.S Belfast will sound a four-gun salute. The BT Tower in central London will scroll the message “long may

she reign”. She has let it be known that she does not want a fuss to be made. It is evidently viewed as bad form for one long-lived queen to be celebrating the passing of a record set by another long-lived queen. The prime minister’s official spokeswoman said David Cameron had paid tribute to the Queen at a cabinet meeting on Monday. He said the Queen had a “remarkable record” and was “a symbol of Britain’s enduring spirit admired around the world”.

Josh Earnest said the administration felt “gratified” by the growing support for the Iran nuclear deal. He suggested that the White House expects Democratic sup-

porters to filibuster the vote to disapprove the accord. Supporters “should take the necessary steps to prevent Congress from undermining the agreement,” he said. Even as Obama stood on the brink of a legacy defining foreign policy victory, opponents kept up their tirade against the deal with former Vice President Dick Cheney denouncing it as “madness” and “shameful”. Calling it a “capitulation” by world powers, he said it “strengthens our adversaries, threatens our allies and puts our own security at risk.”

Seven Indians missing after aerial bombardment in Yemen: MEA IANS, NEW DELHI

even Indians are reported to be missing after two boats carrying 20 Indians came under aerial bombardment in Yemen, the external affairs ministry said on Wednesday. MEA spokesperson Vikas Swarup said in a statement that the two boats were carrying 20 Indian crew members, of whom

13 were alive but seven reported missing. Swarup said there were two boats, one of which was plying between Berbera (Somalia) and Mokha (Yemen). The boats came under aerial bombardment on September 8 afternoon. He said the Indian embassy officials in Djbouti were in touch with local contacts over the matter. “No other information is currently available regarding the

identities of the Indian nationals. Embassy officials are in constant touch with local authorities and are also due to meet with the boat owner today (Wednesday) at which point of time more information would be available,” he said.

When it ended, they met at the net for a hug, with a smiling Venus wrapping both arms around Serena. “She’s the toughest player I’ve ever played in my life and the best person I know,” Serena said in an on-court interview.

The 33-year-old American, with 21 Grand Slam singles titles, could also level on Graf’s career total if she wins a seventh Open trophy.

ndia Test skipper Virat Kohli has become the No.1 ranked Twenty20 International (T20I) batsman in the latest International Cricket Council (ICC) rankings. Kohli overtook Australia’s Aaron Finch, who missed Monday’s 20over clash against England in Cardiff, which the home side won by five runs. Finch dropped 17 points to 854, which, in turn, means he now trails the Indian batsman — who is currently on 861 — by seven points. Moving up the batting table following Monday’s T20I were rival captains Eoin Morgan of England and Steven Smith of Australia. Morgan slapped three fours and seven sixes in a 39-ball 74, which has helped him rise six places to eighth, while Smith’s 53-ball 90, which included seven boundaries and four sixes, has helped him rocket 62 places to 96th. In the bowling list, Samuel Badree of the West Indies tops bowlers’ rankings. Australian pacer Pat Cummins has moved up 11

places to join South African spinner Imran Tahir at the 14th spot. Meanwhile, Australia have dropped one place to third in the team rankings after Monday’s loss. They are one spot ahead of India. This has put Pakistan in second place, six points behind World Twenty20 champions Sri Lanka. England have retained their eighth position on the table.

Man sued for harassing minor girl during flight BY A STAFF WRITER ES MOINES, IA -- The parents of a girl who was inappropriately touched by a man while flying alone from New York to Iowa have sued the man and American Airlines, saying the airline failed to protect the girl. Muhammad Asif Chaudhry, 57, was arrested after the July flight on charges, including engaging in sexual contact with a victim between the ages of 12 and 16. The Pakistani citizen, who has denied the accusations, has since been released on bond. The lawsuit alleges that Chaudhry moved to an open seat beside the girl. The girl texted her mother, who had just arrived at work in Iowa, saying she was woken up by a man inappropriately touching her with his foot and later his hand. “I can’t move cause the seat belt sign is on and I want to get away,” the girl said in texts turned over to the FBI, according to the lawsuit.

BY A STAFF WRITER AMPTON, VA. -- Shaolin Chandam, a 25-year-old Indian national, was shot dead late last month outside his house during an altercation in Virginia, and the police have arrested one person in connection with the murder. Chandam, who is from Manipur, was shot several times on August 25 during an argument in LaSalle Gardens in Hampton, the police said. He was pronounced dead at the scene. The Hampton Police Division has arrested 25-year-old Keenan Palmer in connection with the case. The investigation found that the suspect and victim got into a verbal altercation during which the suspect displayed a firearm and shot the victim. According to Chandam’s mother, Suniti Devi, who is in Imphal, Chandam went to Southern Virginia University and graduated in December of 2013 with a degree in business management and leadership and worked with a financial consulting firm after completing his studies.

so stunned by the texts that she fainted. When Chaudhry left the seat to use the restroom, the girl alerted a flight attendant, who moved her to a vacant first-class seat. The airline reported the girl’s complaint to authorities, and an FBI agent met Chaudhry when the flight, the first leg of her trip, landed in Chicago. Chaudhry denied touching the girl, according to the FBI. The girl gave the investigating agent a cellphone photo she’d taken with Chaudhry’s leg across her lap, the agent said, according to the documents filed by the agent in Chaudhry’s criminal case. Chaudhry told the FBI he was in the US on vacation and to visit family in Oklahoma. He was released on bond after relatives helped pay his $100,000 bail. Beatty, the attorney for the girl’s family, said American Airlines should have placed the girl in a seat where she could be monitored.

filmmaker was offered the post of academic council head in the Film and Television Institute of India (FTII), but he won’t be able to take it up due to work commitments. “He is not replacing Gajendra Chauhan, who is heading the governing council of FTII.

on’t look for rationality or logic and you shall get oodles of entertainment. Treated as a comedy, Welcome Back, is an action-packed, buddy film laced with family obligations, love and sacrifice. This is a sequel to the 2007 released Welcome. It takes off from where it last left. The ageing mobsters Uday Shetty (Nana Patekar) and Majnu (Anil

Kapoor) are now reformed businessmen leading a respectable life in Dubai. Being single, they decide it is time to get domesticated. It so happens that both fall hook, line and sinker for Babita (Ankita Srivastava)

a con-girl, who introduces herself to the duo as Rajkumari Chandini. Meanwhile, Uday’s father turns up at their doorstep informing them that he has one more daughter Ranjhana (Shruti Haasan) from his third

marriage. And that Uday should take care of her. Bogged with this new-found responsibility, the two friends stall their own wedding plans to find a groom for their little sister. They decide to get her married before they can settle down. This forms the crux of the tale. The script, written by Anees Bazmee, Rajiv Kaul and Raaj Shaandilyaa, though treading on tested grounds which make the saga familiar, has freshness in terms of its gags. John Abraham as Shruti’s love interest and Dr. Gunghroo’s son, plays the brawny Ajay aka Ajjubhai with elan. He makes a sincere effort to emote and does have his shining moments. Naseeruddin Shah as “Wanted Bhai” is reduced to a caricature. —Troy Ribeiro

I am yet to see enough female-driven films: Katrina

he disparity in the remuneration of female actors versus the male actors in India, has now attracted a reaction from Katrina Kaif. She says the industry is yet to see enough female-driven films, which can help them ask producers for a certain fee upfront. The Bang Bang! actress, who has worked with A-list actors such as Shah Rukh Khan, Aamir Khan, Salman Khan and Akshay Kumar, shared that she has indeed faced the experience of being paid less. “An actor, male or female needs to be paid according to the budget, structure and the set up of the film,” Katrina told IANS here. The 32-year-old said that it makes sense to pay certain actors that much amount because they have proven their mettle by recovering the money with their ‘X’ factor, but in the case of female-driven films, she said: “We have yet to see enough films that have guaranteed the producer that ‘x’ amount of money can be paid upfront to the actress.”

he appetite for southern films in the country’s northern belt has increased following the phenomenal success of the Hindi dubbed version of S.S. Rajamouli’s Baahubali. It’s a promising time for India’s regional cinema, say trade gurus. Baahubali turned out to be the first Hindi dubbed film to have successfully completed its 50-day run in cinemas, and turned out to be the first dubbed Indian film to rake in over Rs.1 billion. According to Mumbai-based trade expert Rajesh Thadani, the success of Baahubali has opened the avenue for other such films, making the audience receptive towards such films. “It’s a raise of bar for the southern film industry and it has raised the limits for the kind of performance that dubbed films are into. That

obviously gives an encouragement to other films. “Also, it opens doors to audiences pan-India, that even dubbed films can do well and that as long as they have content, they are very good in terms of watching,” Thadani told

IANS. Although there has been a decent market for dubbed southern films over the years, it has increased exponentially post the success of Baahubali. “In the past, films such as Robot, Kochadaiiyaan and Vishwaroopam

have enjoyed a good run across India. (But) The extraordinary success of ‘Baahubali’ has definitely expanded the market,” Rajender Singh, vice president-Programming, INOX, told IANS. The success of Baahubali has also

resulted in increase in footfalls for dubbed southern films in north India, says Devang Sampat, Business Head- Strategy, Cinepolis “It has given an opportunity to entire north/east/west residents to explore another region’s film in their local language. The good part is that most of Hindi watching audience have watched ‘Baahubali’ as their first south regional content, which will give them confidence to come again and buy tickets for another dubbed movie,” Sampat said. Cinemas in the north have now started to give special preference to south content. This is only going to increase with the release of upcoming southern biggies such as Tamil superstar Vijay-starrer Puli on October 1 and Anushka Shetty’s Telugu perioddrama Rudhramadevi on October 9. Puli also features Bollywood diva Sridevi, and according to director Chimbu Deven, her presence is surely going to draw crowds.

Ram Charan keen on Telugu Wasn’t fascinated by acting as a child: Shamlee remake of ‘Thani Oruvan’ CHENNAI: Actress Shamlee, most popular for her work in Mani Ratnam’s award-winning Tamil drama Anjali, says although she may have starred in over 50 films as a child actor, she was never fascinated by acting. “As a kid, I was mostly bored on the sets. I wanted to be playing with other kids, but I missed all of that. So I wasn’t really fascinated by acting. I never aspired to be a star; maybe I wasn’t mature enough,” Shamlee, who is all set to face the arc lights after

IANS, CHENNAI

a hiatus, told IANS. In 2009, she had made her acting debut as a heroine in Telugu romantic-drama Oy, but then didn’t continue acting. “I was offered ‘Oy’ when I was preparing for my Masters. I was free for about six months and decided to give acting a try. As I started shooting, I had applied for my Masters. I’d decided if I get admission, I’ll take off and finish my course and return to acting whenever I feel like. I’m glad it all worked out well,” said Shamlee, who left to Singapore soon after for her a course in film studies. She felt the need for a film course was to get equipped in various crafts of cinema and strengthen her foundation. It has also prepared her for an alternate career in film-making.

Kabir Singh ‘busiest’ baddie in southern filmdom IANS, CHENNAI

ctor Kabir Duhan Singh is extremely happy with the way his career has shaped up. With eight southern projects in his kitty currently and three more in the offing, he’s easily the busiest baddie in southern filmdom. Kabir turned 29 on Tuesday. “It’s just been over a year since I made my acting debut with Telugu film ‘Jil’. As of now, I have eight

projects — some ready to release, while the rest are on the floors. I’m extremely happy with how things have panned out,” Kabir, who is hopping between film shoots nowadays, told IANS. With projects in which he stars with actors such as Ajith Kumar, Pawan Kalyan and Balakrishna among others, Kabir has his hands full for the next couple of years. Kabir considers the yet-untitled Tamil film with Ajith the most awaited project of his career.

ctor Ram Charan is so impressed with Tamil thriller Thani Oruvan that he desires to star in its Telugu remake. “Charan loved the film. He’s so excited to work in its remake, but nothing has been finalized yet. The talks for the Telugu remake rights are still going on. Charan hopes to work in the project if approached by a suitable director,” a source close to the actor told IANS. Currently busy wrapping up Telugu actioner Bruce Lee, Charan has already given his consent to another project in the language. Charan is also busy with the production of his father Chiranjeevi’s highly anticipated 150th film. Chiranjeevi will feature in a 15-minute cameo in Bruce Lee. “Chiranjeevi will appear for 15 minutes in the film. I can’t divulge much information about his role but I can assure that his fans will love it,” film’s director, Srinu Vaitla, told IANS. In the film, Ram Charan will be seen as a stuntman, sporting a Bruce Lee tattoo. The film marks the Telugu debut of Tamil actor Arun Vijay, who will be seen as the antagonist.

GOA’S MONSOON MUSHROOMS

Shraddha Kapoor at her glowing best at LFW

Monsoon in Goa heralds the arrival of the much-awaited olmi — wild mushrooms available only for a few weeks IANS, MOLLEM

hile the psychedelicspell inducing magic mushrooms are the toast of Goa’s coastal rave party circuit, away in the monsoon-soaked hinterland, wild mushrooms, locally called ‘alami’, continue to rule the roost. The wild mushrooms, essentially an edible fungi, spring up like tiny white bobs of smooth candy all across anthills in forested areas, especially in wildlife sanctuaries like Mollem, 90 km state capital Panaji, from where they are harvested by the basketful to local markets in folded large and coarse teak-tree leaves. A small bunch may cost anywhere between Rs.500 and Rs.2,000 depending on the season and the demand. You are considered lucky if you come away with a packet of alami by managing to survive the stampede of aficionados around the vendors. “I buy them at least once in the monsoon. As long as I can remember, my mother has been cooking alami tondache (a thick stew). It’s to die for,” Waman Shetye from Bicholim, who had just picked up a

packet of alami from a woman vendor in Panaji, told IANS. Shetye isn’t the only one who prefers the crunchy taste of these mushrooms over the artificially cultured and packaged variety. According to Goan chefs, it is the distinctly earthy, nutty flavor of alami which sets them apart from the relatively subdued taste of the mushrooms packed for supermarkets. “Hindus in Goa consume them as a delicious vegetable preparation. The popular Goan dishes are alami tonak, alami xacuti and chilly fry. These are the recipes passed down from generations and are still being prepared in the same way,”

Unstable moods may ruin your romantic relationships

said Rodwin Rodrigues, assistant chef at the V.M. Salgaocar Institute of International Hospitality Education. According to Nandkumar Kamat, who has researched extensively on mushrooms, there are around 100 different edible species in Goa that he has come across during his research spanning over three decades. “Local species have interesting local names like olmi or alami, roenichim, toshali, chochyali, khut or khuti, shiti, shitol , shiringar olmi, shendari, kuski, dukor, surya olmi, tel alami, fuge and bhuifod,” according to Kamat.

MUMBAI: Shraddha Kapoor was at her glowing and glamorous best on the Lakme Fashion Week winter-festive 2015 runway in a white ensemble by designer Namrata Joshipura, whose collection was inspired by the Lakmé Insta Light latest skincare innovation. The Lakmé Insta Light runway saw an impactful use of LED lights that accentuated Joshipura’s creations. The show opened with models positioned under four giant black iron rectangular frames that lined the stage. In the darkness of the hall, their swimwear, with strategically placed lit bulbs came alive. Dolman sleeve tops, asymmetric long sleeve printed wraps, drop waist dress and shimmering racer back tops appeared in quick succession on the ramp were part of the line, while a white crushed asymmetric coat, silver side cascades on pencil

skirts and the micro shorts under long tulle skirts, also turned out to be highlights. To match the lightness of the inspiration, the designer selected white, light pastel blue and purple as the primary hues. She also brought in shimmer and Holographic fabric by weaving metallic strips into the fabrics. Shraddha added more glamour to the show with her catwalk and charming smile. “It was very interesting to work on a show based on a brief... it was challenging and the same time, quite nice. The show made me push my boundaries,” Joshipura told IANS. “Taking inspiration from Lakmé’s latest skin care innovation Lakmé Insta Light, my collection aims to set the stage for a youthful and modern collection that glows and sparkles. Iridescence and shine are the primary elements of my collection,” she said.

Coarse’ porridge to help lower blood sugar levels LONDON: Next time when you buy porridge for morning breakfast, try to look for one with rough and coarse particles as this can significantly lower blood sugar levels by letting the starch digest slowly in the gut, new research suggests. Wheat is a good source of starch and also contains dietary fiber. Milling wheat grains to produce flour damages these cell walls, allowing the starch to be digested more quickly. The study led by King’s College London found that when participants ate wheat porridge made from coarser, larger particles, this gave rise to significantly lower blood sugar levels than when they consumed a “smooth” porridge made of finer wheat flour. Both meals were made of the same ingredients and had the same nutrient

cortisol levels were measured. The kids and their parents also answered questions about stress, sleep habits and bedtime routines. The researchers found that poorer sleep quality, regardless of how long kids spent sleeping, promoted the negative effects of stress on their cortisol levels. Sleeping throughout the night without waking up, feeling rested in the morning, and absence of sleep problems, such as nightmares, apnea and snoring, are examples of a better quality sleep,” Ly noted.

Anti-depressants may change your brain NEW YORK: A commonly prescribed anti-depressant may change brain structures in depressed and non-depressed individuals in very different ways, says a new study. Although it is a common practice to prescribe antidepressants for various disorders besides depression, the findings of this study suggest that taking these

medicines for treating disorders other than depression may expose us to unknown risks. The antidepressant sertraline, marketed as Zoloft, significantly increased the volume of one brain region in depressed individuals but decreased the volume of two brain areas in non-depressed individuals. “These observations are important for human health because Zoloft is widely prescribed for a number of disorders other than depression,” said lead author of the study Carol Shively, professor at Wake Forest Baptist Medical Center in North Carolina, US.

Vitamin A linked to alcoholic liver disease development IANS, NEW YORK

ounteracting alcohol’s effect on vitamin A levels in the liver may lead to novel treatments for alcoholic liver disease, suggests new research. The research found that chronic alcohol consumption has a dramatic effect on the way the body handles vitamin A. Long-term drinking lowers vitamin A levels in the liver, which is the main site of alcohol breakdown and vitamin A storage, while raising vitamin A levels in many other tissues. “We hope this study will lead to a broader understanding and appreciation of the fact that excessive consumption of alcohol has a negative effect on vitamin A function in the body,” said one of the researchers Robin Clugston from Columbia University Medical Center in New York, New York. “Ultimately, we hope that vitamin A will be seen as a broad target for alcohol in multiple tissues of the

body and that our understanding of alcohol-induced disease will be linked together by its effects on vitamin A,” Clugston noted. Clugston and colleagues conducted multiple experiments using several groups of mice including those who received alcohol-containing food and alcohol-free food. The alcohol-fed mice had distinct changes in how their body handled vitamin A. In general, vitamin A levels were lower in the liver and higher in other tissues.
