Mocha Mousse sounds like a dessert for New Year’s Eve. Chocolatey and creamy, but with a coffee kick to keep you up till midnight. It is, in fact, Pantone’s ‘Color of the Year’, a shade that the colour management company decides can best “express a global mood and attitude” at this time. ET Year-end Special Reads What kept India's stock market investors on toes in 2024? India's car race: How far EVs went in 2024 Investing in 2025: Six wealth management trends to watch out for 2024 was a chaotic year and 2025 promises even more turmoil. Is that best expressed by “a warming, brown hue imbued with richness”, as Pantone describes it? Brown, as Philip Ball writes in Bright Earth, his history of artists and colour, is like a non-colour: “It sits on the border between a real colour and an achromatic one — a ‘dirty’ colour akin to grey. Brown is, in fact, a kind of grey biased towards yellow or orange.” Ball notes how, compared to costly materials like lapis-lazuli or gold, brown literally came from dirt. Burnt sienna was mined in Italy, becoming rich red-brown on heating. Earth pigments like ochre and umber were used in ancient cave paintings. Varnishing paintings with protective glazes also tended to darken them, forming the image of brownish ‘Old Master’ paintings. The 19th century Impressionists derided this as ‘brown gravy’ art, which they countered with fresh, bright colours. But the Industrial Revolution was turning their world brown. Claude Monet loved painting the heavy yellow-brown ‘pea-soup’ fog that enveloped London for days, and which we now see in Indian cities. Dusty cities, desert sands, sewage spills and flooding rivers all come in brown. For those who watch the news with gloom, Pantone’s choice of colour may seem all too apt. Brown has even darker associations. In the 18th century, a brown with an oddly dark stain became popular with artists. Sometimes called Egyptian brown, the more honest name was mommia, or ‘Mummy Brown’, since it was made by grinding up mummies embalmed with ingredients like myrrh that gave their flesh a brown colour. There were rumours that dealers who were short of mummies created new ones using the bodies of executed criminals. One horrified artist formally buried his paints when he learnt of their origin. Yet, brown has positive associations as well, especially linked to food. The company describes Mocha Mousse as “answering our desire for comfort” and many shades of brown are named after favourite foods, like caramel, chocolate and cinnamon. Different types of coffee, like espresso, cappuccino and latte, are used to name different shades, just as nut-brown can be differentiated into light almond, medium pecan, yellowish peanut and dark walnut. Cuttlefish were both prized as food and for their ink which appeared on paper in a mellow, slightly faded brown that was called sepia. Nigella Lawson, in her book Cook, Eat, Repeat, writes ‘A Loving Defence of Brown Food’. She laments how social media is quick to label brown foods, like stews, disgusting — but the real problem is that brown is hard to photograph: “To the naked eye, brown food is beautiful: Rich, warm, and full of depth and subtle variegation. None of this can be easily caught on camera...” The problem, she feels, is also textural. Slow cooking breaks down both the shape and colour of ingredients, reducing them to a brown mush. This is often really delicious, but it can also recall bland, badly cooked food shovelled down our throats as children. Brown poses a particular challenge for Indian foods. Turmeric, fenugreek and other yellow-brown spices combine with slow cooking to make this a dominant colour, which makes it an easy slur — brown food from brown people. Social media is full of such insults, yet in the real world, Indian food only gets more popular. Perhaps that is the real value of brown, reminding us in an image-obsessed world that flavour lies in more than just vivid colours.

Login or signup to continue reading In a little more than six minutes, and without ever saying a word, an image of how his brain deals with information would be taken and analysed. It would be some of the first scans of its kind taken in the region and would inform doctors about the effect of concussion in more detail than the Hunter has ever before had access to. At that moment, it might have been difficult for the players to conceive of a moment when they were hurt. They were young, at peak fitness, and at the height of their powers. But as the device - looking somewhat like a swimming cap with nodes attached - was fitted to Jayden Fox's head, he was thinking about his future. "It's keeping yourself safe," the Hunter Wildfire's five-eighth said. "Protecting your future. Footy isn't everything, I guess, and you have to protect yourself." The technology - a version of which was notably used to diagnose Knights star Kalyn Ponga after he suffered a string of concussions during the 2023 season - has made its way to the Hunter via neurologist Chris Levi, who consulted on Ponga's treatment and now co-owns a company, CXDX Connected Diagnostics, which aims to distribute the technology - called the NeuroCatch platform - in Australia. Lake Macquarie Private's emergency department is the first place in Australia to use it. It scans the low-voltage energy produced when the brain is at work and cross-references the data against another scan when a player suffers a suspected concussion. At the weekend, the Wildfires signed on en-mass for a baseline scan that would be used to diagnose concussions if the worst should happen on the field during the season. "When your brain works, it creates low voltage electricity. And that low voltage electricity can be detected through the scalp with the little electrodes in the headpiece," Professor Levi said on Saturday as he oversaw the team going through the testing at No. 2 Sportsground. "When you think about certain tasks, you produce certain waves." "What we see when someone has a concussion is that the waveform changes." Professor Levi said the technology - not only applicable to sports recovery but also to dementia patients and other brain function diagnoses - unveiled a radically new and precise understanding of how an individual player's brain responds to tasks, changing in the event of a concussion, and how long it took to recover. "There are all types of concussions in terms of mild, moderate and severe and at the moment, the guidelines are a one-size-fits-all approach," Professor Levi said. "This allows us to do precision medicine, personalising treatment to the player." The data would inform the severity and longevity of concussion events, he said, and with an immediacy that local players have not had access to before. The Wildfires operations manager, Rich Ley, said that more than the medical advancement for his players, the testing offered a sense of comfort and reassurance that the club was not just looking out for the players' health during their careers but well after. "The players have families and careers outside of here that they have to care for as well," he said. "We're doing the right thing here." Beau McKenzie, the Wildfires flanker, had suffered a few knocks in his career, and he said he felt unable to understand anything. Another player, as he waited for his turn in the testing room, remembered coming to with someone standing over him after his concussion last year. "A lot of the time, you're a bit out of it," he said. "Someone is standing over you, checking on you, and depending on what it is, you feel a bit dazed. It can be as bad as slurring your words." The benefit of the local tech, Lake Macquarie Private emergency department director Mark Lee said, was its immediacy. A nurse could fit the device and take the reading and, in less than 10 minutes, had a report that could inform them of the next steps of diagnosis. "That is why it's so exciting," he said.

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — The Minnesota Timberwolves delayed their game against the San Antonio Spurs by one hour on Sunday night due to an issue with the court at Target Center. The Timberwolves announced the decision about three hours before the originally scheduled tipoff time. The Spurs discovered the problem during their morning shootaround, Timberwolves spokesman Patrick Rees said. The team decided to delay the game so arena staff had enough time to install the replacement court that had to be delivered from elsewhere. The Timberwolves have played at Target Center since 1990. ___ AP NBA: https://apnews.com/hub/NBA The Associated Press
PPP’s 57th foundation day: ‘Dialogue or baton’, political stability a must, says Bilawal Bilawal says major opposition parties in country were neither political nor democratic ISLAMABAD: Referring to the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI), Pakistan People Party (PPP) Chairman Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari has slammed the opposition for agitational politics, stressing the need for ensuring stability in the country either via “dialogue or baton”. Addressing the party workers and supporters via video link to mark the PPP’s 57th foundation day, Bilawal urged “non-political opposition” to adopt democratic norms to ensure economic stability. Bilawal said the major opposition parties in the country were neither political nor democratic. He said that the May 9 attack and the events that took place in Islamabad did not come under the purview of politics. “As a politician, we have to come within the ambit of politics,” he said adding that opposition along with government also responsible for ensuring stability in the country. He also urged the non-political opposition to adopt democratic norms, warning that if they continued with the same attitude then they themselves and the country would suffer. He also referred to the reports that the Centre was planning to impose governor rule in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and said that the government did not ask them on the issue of imposing governor’s rule or to ban any political party, adding that if the matter was put in before the PPP, we would try to take a decision with mutual consultation. Bilawal said that the whole world was watching what is happening in Parachinar. The writ of the state is ending, while the responsibility of establishing peace is with the chief minister, but he was attacking the federal government. He said that if they wanted to get their founder out of jail, they should leave the provincial government and keep doing that. No one has the right to attack by forming a mob. “It is everyone’s right to protest peacefully, but by forming a mob May 9 or Islamabad should not be attacked. Our point of view is different from the government’s viewpoint.” He said that the opposition has always maintained that there would be no talks. If they wanted to talk to anyone that is the establishment or non-political people. Firing a salvo at the PTI, Bilawal said that the opposition party was not showing interest in solving public problems. He said their sole priority was to ensure release of their incarcerated leader. The PPP leader said that they wanted to restore peace and end terrorism in the country. He said that the political parties and the institutions were capable to steer the country out of crisis. Bilawal declared opposition “biggest obstacle” in bringing political stability in the country. In the same address, the PPP chief said that the space for politics is less in the country, stressing the need for all political parties to return to the political sphere. He also criticised the federal government policies for agriculture, saying it was feared that such policies would lead to the “economic murder” of farmers instead of benefitting them. Calling upon the Centre to listen to the reservations of the provincial governments, Bilawal said the federal government was planning to draw a canal from the Indus River. “If the government pushes forward with this decision, the problem between the federal government and the province will increase,” he warned. Bilawal said the decision would also have a negative impact on the country’s economy. “PPP will not accept any forced decision.” Moving on to terrorism, the PPP chairman said: “Our army, police and [political] leadership rendered [unmatched] sacrifices and defeated terrorists.” He further said that the PPP demands a new plan would have to be brought against terrorism. A new national action plan is needed, and a development plan is also necessary. Stressing the need for a new action plan, he said terrorism was rearing its head once again in Sindh, Balochistan and Islamabad. Earlier, the PPP celebrated its 57th Foundation Day at a ceremony held at the PPP Central Secretariat in Islamabad. The event, attended by party leaders, workers, and supporters, featured a cake-cutting ceremony led by party’s Vice President Senator Sherry Rehman, PPP-Parliamentarians Secretary General Syed Nayyar Hussain Bukhari and other senior party office-bearers and workers. Speaking to the media during the event, Sherry Rehman reaffirmed the party’s steadfast commitment to democracy, justice, and the empowerment of Pakistan’s citizens. She emphasised that the day marked not just the founding of the PPP but the establishment of a historic movement for the restoration of democracy and the protection of citizens’ rights. “On this significant day, we pay tribute to our visionary founder, Shaheed Zulfikar Ali Bhutto, whose leadership gave a voice to the voiceless and hope to the marginalised. His decision to establish the Pakistan People’s Party on November 30, 1967, was a turning point in our history, and his ideals remain the cornerstone of our political philosophy,” she said. Sherry also honoured the contributions of Shaheed Mohtarma Benazir Bhutto, who not only carried forward her father’s legacy but strengthened Pakistan’s democratic foundations. She reiterated Shaheed Mohtarma Benazir Bhutto’s sacrifices for democracy, human rights, and gender equality, noting that her leadership laid the groundwork for lasting initiatives. “The Lady Health Worker Programme, which remains the backbone of Pakistan’s healthcare system, and the Benazir Income Support Programme, which has provided critical relief to countless vulnerable communities, are examples of the transformative impact of her vision,” she stated. Reflecting on the PPP’s achievements, she noted the foundational role played by President Asif Ali Zardari in laying the groundwork for the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC), which continues to drive economic growth and connectivity in the region. She also stressed the pivotal role of the PPP in empowering women, with Shaheed Benazir Bhutto’s contributions serving as a beacon for gender equality and social progress. She further praised the leadership of Bilawal, under whose guidance the PPP has continued to champion the ideals of its founding leaders. “Chairman PPP Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari has led the party with determination, ensuring that the PPP remains a beacon of hope and a catalyst for change in the face of unprecedented challenges. His leadership is a testament to our ongoing struggle for a peaceful, progressive, and prosperous Pakistan.” Meanwhile, addressing the PPP Foundation Day ceremony at Lahore, PPP Central Punjab General Secretary Syed Hassan Murtaza has said that some leaders call their workers to the streets and run away, but the PPP stalwarts gave sacrifices. Today the PPP’s democratic convoy is moving on in the form of the third generation of the Bhutto family, he said. PPP MNA Samina Ghurki congratulate the party workers on the completion of 57 years of the PPP. Sindh Government Spokesperson and Mayor Sukkur Barrister Arsalan Islam Sheikh, addressing a Youm-e-Tasees, said that 57 years ago Shaheed Zulfikar Ali Bhutto started the journey of the PPP to struggle for the rights of common people. He said that after Quaid-i-Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah, the rulers had forgotten the people. Bhutto started this journey on the basis of one-man-one-vote system, equality and socialism. He said that the journey has been continued by Shaheed Mohtarma Benazir Bhutto, President Asif Ali Zardari, Faryal Talpur, Bibi Aseefa Bhutto Zardari and Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari. He said that the PPP is the only party whose workers have not only sacrificed their lives, but also the top leadership had offered martyrdom for the nation. He said that the PPP made the country a nuclear power.

Love Island star Maura and Reverend Richard Coles are this year's jungle late arrivals. The pair are living in small, unsanitary "Junkyard" camp - although it comes with a major twist. As the main camp faced another rainy morning, internet personality GK Barry made a major prediction. She said: "But do you know what, poor Maura and Richard. "If they have to stay down there another night, Maura's walking. "Maura's 100% walking." As viewers know, Maura and Richard have secretly been enjoying a life of luxury . The other celebs believe the pair have been living in squalor - and lacking basic requirements. If Maura and Richard successfully maintain the lie, everyone will enjoy a "junk food buffet." Meanwhile, Friday's episode saw the Junkyard secret take a brand new direction. Dean McCullough and Danny Jones took on the latest trial, "High Street Of Horrors." Covering themselves in feathers, Maura and Richard had to pretend they'd miserably failed - winning no stars for their smaller camp. After Dean and Danny's eight-star winning effort, they chose Dean to join them in the Junkyard. Now in on the secret, he enjoyed the secret luxuries and advantage of the other camp. The jig may soon be up, however, as Coleen Rooney appears to have sussed out the ruse. Returning from a visit to the Junkyard, she confided her suspicions to the others. Coleen revealed she thought the other trio looked "more content" than their dire circumstances suggested. i'm A Celebrity is back for its 24th series, with a batch of famous faces living in the Aussie jungle. The Sun's Jake Penkethman takes a look at the stars on the show this year.. Coleen Rooney - Arguably the most famous name in the camp, the leading WAG, known for her marriage to Wayne Rooney , has made a grand return to TV as she looks to put the Wagatha Christie scandal behind her. The Sun revealed the mum-of-four had bagged an eye-watering deal worth over £1.5million to be on the show this year making her the highest-paid contestant ever. Tulisa - The popstar and former X Factor judge has made her triumphant TV comeback by signing up to this year's I'm A Celeb after shunning TV shows for many years. Known for being a member of the trio, N-Dubz, Tulisa became a household name back in 2011 when she signed on to replace Cheryl on ITV show The X Factor in a multi-million pound deal. Alan Halsall - The actor, known for playing the long-running role of Tyrone Dobbs on ITV soap opera Coronation Street, was originally signed up to head Down Under last year but an operation threw his scheduled appearance off-course. Now he has become the latest Corrie star to win over both the viewers and his fellow celebrities. Melvin Odoom - The Radio DJ has become a regular face on TV screens after rising to fame with presenting roles on Kiss FM, BBC Radio 1 and 4Music. Melvin has already been for a spin on the Strictly dancefloor and co-hosted The Xtra Factor with Rochelle Humes in 2015 but now he is facing up to his biggest challenge yet - the Aussie jungle . GK Barry - The UK's biggest social media personality, GK, whose real name is Grace Keeling, has transformed her TikTok stardom into a lucrative career. Aside from her popular social media channels, she hosts the weekly podcast, Saving Grace, and regularly appears on ITV talk show, Loose Women. She has even gone on to endorse popular brands such as PrettyLittleThing, KFC and Ann Summers. Dean McCullough - A rising star amongst this year's bunch of celebs , Dean first achieved notability through his radio appearances on Gaydio and BBC Radio 1. He was chosen to join the BBC station permanently in 2021 and has featured prominently ever since. He has enjoyed a crossover to ITV over the past year thanks to his guest slots on Big Brother spin-off show, Late & Live. Oti Mabuse - The pro dancer has signed up to her latest TV show after making her way through the biggest programmes on the box. She originally found fame on Strictly Come Dancing but has since branched out into the world of TV judging with appearances on former BBC show The Greatest Dancer as well as her current role on ITV's Dancing On Ice . Danny Jones - The McFly star was drafted into the programme last minute as a replacement for Tommy Fury. Danny is the second member of McFly to enter the jungle , after Dougie Poynter won the show in 2011. He is also considered a rising star on ITV as he's now one of the mentors on their Saturday night talent show, The Voice , along with bandmate Tom Fletcher. Jane Moore - The Loose Women star and The Sun columnist is braving the creepy crawlies this year. The star is ready for a new challenge - having recently split from her husband . It will be Jane's first foray into reality TV with the telly favourite having always said no to reality shows in the past. Barry McGuigan - Former pro boxer Barry is the latest fighting champ to head Down Under following in the footsteps of Tony Bellew and Amir Khan. It comes after a tough few years for Irish star Barry, who lost his daughter Danika to bowel cancer . He told The Late Late Show in 2021: "She was such an intrinsic part of the family that every day we ache." Maura Higgins - The Irish TV beauty first found fame on Love Island where she found a brief connection with dancer Curtis Pritchard . Since then, she has competed on Dancing On Ice as well as hosting the Irish version of the beauty contest, Glow Up. Since last year, she has been working on building up her career in the US by being the social media correspondent and host of Aftersun to accompany Love Island USA. She even guest hosted an episode of the spin-off, Love Island Games, in place of Maya Jama last year. Rev. Richard Coles - Former BBC radio host the Rev Richard Coles is a late arrival on I’m A Celebrity , and he's ready to spill the beans on his former employer. The former Communards and Strictly star , said the BBC did not know its a**e from its elbow last year. An insider said: "Rev Coles will have a variety of tales to tell from his wild days as a pop star in the Eighties, through to performing on Strictly and his later life as a man of the cloth." Soon after, other campmates chimed in with their own observations. McFly's Danny Jones deduced the duo had faked doing his and Dean's trial. Meanwhile, Melvin Odoom realised they'd only pretended do a disgusting challenge with him. I'm A Celebrity airs on ITV1 and ITVX.Conagra Brands Inc. stock rises Thursday, outperforms market
