However, emergency services will continue to operate. There will also be no supply of milk, fruits, and vegetables until the protest ends on Monday evening as several trade organisations lent their support to the bandh. “Farmer union leaders will enforce a chakka jam on roads and rail lines from 7 am to 4 pm. Government and private institutions are requested to stay closed. Only emergency vehicles, such as ambulances, marriage vehicles, or anyone in a dire emergency, will be allowed to pass," reports quoted a senior farm leader as saying. The decision to give a call for a 'Punjab bandh' was taken last week by the Samyukta Kisan Morcha (Non-political) and Kisan Mazdoor Morcha. Sarwan Singh Pandher — who happens to be the coordinator of both forums — said traders, transporters, employees unions, toll plaza workers, labour, ex-servicemen, Sarpanches and teachers' unions, social and other bodies, and some other sections have lent their support to the bandh. Farmers under the banner of SKM (Non-Political) and KMM have been camping at Shambhu and Khanauri border points between Punjab and Haryana since February 13 after their march to Delhi was stopped by security forces.

A.R. Rahman issues legal notice to ‘slanderers’, warns of dire consequencesParis, Dec 23 (AP) French President Emmanuel Macron's office announced a new government Monday, after the previous Cabinet collapsed in a historic vote prompted by fighting over the country's budget. The government, put together by newly named Prime Minister Francois Bayrou, includes members of the outgoing conservative-dominated team and new figures from centrist or left-leaning backgrounds. Coming up with a 2025 budget will be the most urgent order of business. The new government enters office after months of political deadlock and crisis and pressure from financial markets to reduce France's colossal debt. Macron has vowed to remain in office until his term ends in 2027, but has struggled to govern since snap elections in the summer left no single party with a majority in the National Assembly. Since his appointment 10 days ago, Bayrou has held talks with political leaders from various parties in search of the right balance for the new government. Some critics on Monday were angry at Bayrou for consulting with Marine Le Pen's far-right party, and some argue the government looks too much like the old one to win lawmakers' trust. Former Prime Minister Michel Barnier resigned this month following a no-confidence vote prompted by budget disputes in the National Assembly, leaving France without a functioning government. Le Pen played a key role in Barnier's downfall by joining her National Rally party's forces with the left to pass the no-confidence motion. Bayrou will need support from moderate legislators on the right and left to keep his government alive. Banker Eric Lombard will be finance minister, a crucial post when France is working to fulfil its promises to European Union partners to reduce its deficit, estimated to reach 6 per cent of its gross domestic product this year. Lombard briefly worked as an adviser to a Socialist finance minister in the 1990s. Bayrou has said he supports tax hikes championed by his predecessor, but it's not clear how the new government can find the right calculation for a budget that satisfies a majority of lawmakers angry over spending cuts. Hard-right Bruno Retailleau stays on as interior minister, with responsibility for France's security and migration policy. Sebastien Lecornu, who has been at the forefront of France's military support for Ukraine, remains defence minister, while Foreign Minister Jean-Noel Barrot, who has travelled extensively in the Mideast in recent weeks, also retains his post. Among new faces are two former prime ministers. Manuel Valls will be minister for overseas affairs, and Elisabeth Borne takes the education ministry.

None, a fighting game adapting the events of the beloved manga/anime series, has been banned in Australia by the Australian Classification Board for its depiction of “implied sexual violence.” It appears the game will not be available for release locally, or that Arc System Works will be required to censor the game to release it in the country. The banning was recent spotted by , although it appears the ACB handed down its decision in . An inquiry revealed the upcoming adaptation has specifically been banned for “a scene of a visual depiction of implied sexual violence, where an adult male exposes himself to persons under the age of 18 years.” “The Board noted in its report that the implied sexual violence is implicitly condoned as appropriate due to a lack of resolution of the act through the game’s narrative and that it is not justified by context,” a spokesperson told . “Implied sexual violence that is visually depicted, interactive, not justified by context, or related to incentives or rewards is not permitted.” This isn’t the first time video games have been banned for similar depictions. In 2021, was also banned for “sexual activity involving a person who is, or appears to be, a child under 18.” was banned in 2022, for similar reasons. The ACB typically takes a very strict stance against any implied or depicted sexual activity related to characters who are or appear to be minors, with immediate bans handed down if this content is not explicitly contextualised. Per , the scene that got banned in Australia may have been inspired by a sequence in the “Greed Island” arc of the manga and anime, in which “pervert” clown Hisoka flashes child main characters, Gon and Killua, while bathing. In the context of the manga and anime, it’s an inconsequential gag scene played for laughs, but it’s been received very differently by the ACB. In handing down a ban, it has firmly stated the content is not appropriate for “general-accepted community standards” and so, will not be available for purchase in Australia, unless changes are made. For now, we await word from Arc System Works, as to whether the game will be modified for release in Australian markets, or whether its planned console launch will now be halted.

(AP) — The Tennessee Titans ' playoff hopes are over earlier than at any point since 2015 when a coach was fired midseason . The franchise's third different coach since then is busy trying to build for the future in his debut year. Teresa M. Walker, The Associated Press Dec 9, 2024 1:47 PM Dec 9, 2024 2:05 PM Share by Email Share on Facebook Share on X Share on LinkedIn Print Share via Text Message Tennessee Titans defensive tackle Jeffery Simmons leaves the field after an NFL football game against the Jacksonville Jaguars, Sunday, Dec. 8, 2024, in Nashville, Tenn. (AP Photo/George Walker IV) NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — The Tennessee Titans ' playoff hopes are over earlier than at any point since 2015 when a coach was fired midseason . The franchise's third different coach since then is busy trying to build for the future in his debut year. It certainly doesn't help that team officials are busy trying to sell pricey tickets for the Titans' enclosed stadium scheduled to open in 2027. Brian Callahan said Monday he knows the NFL is a results-based business, but doesn't feel as if he's coaching for his job. The Titans (3-10) were eliminated by a 10-6 loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars , a week earlier than their postseason hopes ended in 2023 and helped cost Mike Vrabel his coaching job . “I’m not naive and I don’t like stick my head in the sand,” Callahan said. "I understand how all of it works, but that’s not anything I’ve focused on that.” Callahan said he was honest with the Titans, who now sit at the bottom of the AFC South. What's left is building a foundation for the future . “How we finish the season matters,” Callahan said. What’s working The defense. After one of the Titans' worst showings all season and with three starters out with injuries, the Titans defense held an opponent to a season low in points even if facing a backup quarterback. They also came up with two interceptions to help Tennessee win the turnover battle for a team that came in next to last in the NFL in turnover margin. The problem? All 10 points were allowed in the fourth quarter. Safety Amani Hooker said the defense can only focus on mowing their own grass, now more than ever with only four games left. Now the Titans must look themselves in the mirror because all of the NFL will see how they play. What needs help The offense couldn't find the end zone and finished with a season low in points. The Titans turned it over on downs twice inside the Jaguars 9 and managed only two Nick Folk field goals against what had been the NFL’s worst defense in yards allowed per game and next to last in points allowed. Callahan's decision to try a pass after a takeaway on the final play of the first half left Will Levis needing a shot in his right, throwing shoulder for the pain from a hard sack where rookie left tackle JC Latham was beaten. It's the same shoulder that sidelined Levis for three games with a sprained AC joint. Levis missed a wide-open Chig Okonkwo in the end zone. Late in the game, Levis could've thrown a quicker ball to Calvin Ridley, who also had room to run for the first down only to go out of bounds. Nick Westbrook-Ikhine couldn't haul in a pass on fourth down in the end zone where Ridley also was open. Stock up Cornerback Chidobe Awuzie. A key free agent signee in March, Awuzie had been out since Sept. 22 and on injured reserve with a groin injury. He returned and got the first interception for the Titans' defense — also his first this season. Stock down RT Nicholas Petit-Frere. The third-year lineman out of Ohio State is tied for the team lead with nine penalties, eight that have stopped drives. Two of those came against the Jaguars, the second on the Titans' final play turning a fourth-and-10 into fourth-and-15 before Levis's last-gasp incompletion. Injuries Callahan said he expects Levis will be OK after being able to finish the game, though he said they will know more Wednesday. CB Roger McCreary (shoulder) might be able to return after not practicing last week. Key number 1 — Two home games remain. Right now, the Titans are flirting with matching the franchise low for home wins at Nissan Stadium set in 2014 and 2015 during a 5-27 stretch where three of those wins came on the road. Next steps Show signs of life on offense. Only New England (17) and the Giants (14.9) are scoring fewer than Tennessee's 17.5 points a game this season. More points will be needed to beat Cincinnati in a rematch against Callahan's old boss Zac Taylor on Sunday. ___ AP NFL: https://apnews.com/hub/nfl Teresa M.

Canada Post down eight million parcels amid strike as talk carry on over weekendThat bowl berth against Iowa State is a let-down for fans with dreams of a sixth national title in their minds, as well as players hoping to compete for a championship. However, Miami’s trip to Orlando and the lead-up to it are still crucial periods for the Hurricanes for multiple reasons. First, it’s a chance for the program to achieve something it has not done in more than two decades: win 11 games. Although the 11th win won’t get them closer to a championship, it is a good sign of the program’s progress over Mario Cristobal’s tenure. It would also end UM’s five-game losing streak in bowls. “We’re not satisfied,” Cristobal said. “We want to win every single game. We won 10. We were close on the other two, but close isn’t good enough. We want progress. We’re hungry and driven to get better, and so that’s what our focus is on: to improving as a football program, to getting better, to moving into the postseason with an opportunity against a great football team like this and putting our best on the field.” There are signs the Hurricanes will show up at close to full strength for the bowl game. Running back Damien Martinez announced he was going to play, and star quarterback Cam Ward said in a video call posted on social media that he intends to play, as well. “We’re trying to win our first bowl game in 20 years,” Ward said in the video, mistaking the length of UM’s long bowl losing streak. “We’re going hard.” Playing in the bowl game also provides the opportunity for the Hurricanes to get in several practices between now and the game. That means Miami can develop its young players and prepare them for next season during both the practices and the bowl game itself. “It’s extremely valuable,” Cristobal said. “You really don’t have many opportunities throughout the course of the year — time is limited more and more each season with your student-athletes. I want to state this and be very clear: it’s very important, it’s ultra-important for the University of Miami to continue to develop and grow and progress by stressing the importance of offseason opportunities ... You learn a lot about your team and learn a lot about your people and your program when you head to the postseason.” Of course, there are potential negatives. Players can get hurt; Mark Fletcher Jr. suffered a foot injury in the Pinstripe Bowl last year that cost him all of spring practice. A poor performance can also potentially set the tone for next season, like how Florida State, fresh off a playoff snub last year, suffered a devastating loss against Georgia in the Orange Bowl and went on to a dismal 2-10 season this year. “This is the ending of ’24 and the beginning of ’25,” Cristobal said. “This is the last opportunity to be on the field and carry some momentum into the offseason. So it is, in essence, it is the most important game because it’s the next game. “There’s a lot of excitement in the form of opportunity for our guys. Our guys love to play football. The chance to play one more time with this special group — this is a special group of guys now. They’ve worked hard to really change the trajectory of the University of Miami, and they want to continue to elevate the status and the culture at the University of Miami. So certainly a ton to play for.” ____
