Maharashtra Election Results: Nilesh Rane Defeats 2-Time MLA Vaibhav Naik In Kudal Constituency With Over 8,000 Votes
Qatar tribune Tribune News Network Doha Qatar National Library (QNL) celebrated the winners of a student competition that recognised Qatar’s achievements under the leadership of the Father Amir His Highness Sheikh Hamad bin Khalifa Al Thani. The award ceremony featured valuable prizes for the top three winners in each category of the competition, which brought together primary and preparatory school students from across the country on the occasion of Qatar National Day. Participants conducted extensive research to explore the Father Amir’s pivotal role in shaping Qatar’s modern identity and his contributions to education, culture, foreign policy, and humanitarian efforts. The competition was divided into two categories: poster design and article writing. Primary school students created innovative posters that visually depicted key moments in Qatar’s renaissance while preparatory school students wrote insightful essays, on Qatar’s economic and social development, foreign policy, and humanitarian legacy. Maha Al-Naimi, information service librarian at QNL, said the competition aligns with the library’s efforts to enable youth to gain deeper insight into Qatar’s history and the legacy of its leaders. “Empowering youth to understand our history is essential to preserving our nation’s cultural heritage. The competition highlighted the visionary leadership of His Highness the Father Amir and provided students with a platform to express their creativity in documenting his rich legacy,” she explained. Submissions were assessed based on students’ creativity and ability to showcase the profound impact of the Father Amir’s leadership on the nation’s development, as well as their effective use of sources—with a particular emphasis on referencing materials from Qatar National Library. Through such initiatives, the Library furthers its mission to educate and empower the community—particularly youth—by fostering a deeper connection to Qatar’s traditions and history. Copy 24/12/2024 10President-elect Donald Trump's repeated support for TikTok has sparked speculation about potential solutions to prevent the app's impending ban in the United States, though the path forward remains unclear. "We got to keep this sucker around for a little while," Trump told supporters on Sunday, just days after meeting with TikTok CEO Shou Zi Chew in Florida. Trump, who credits the wildly popular platform with delivering him a large young user base, opposes banning TikTok partly because he believes it would primarily benefit Meta, the Mark Zuckerberg-led company behind Instagram and Facebook. The situation is complex, according to University of Richmond School of Law professor Carl Tobias, given the various potential solutions and Trump's unpredictable nature. Congress overwhelmingly passed legislation, signed by President Joe Biden in April, that would block TikTok from US app stores and web hosting services unless Beijing-based ByteDance sells its stake by January 19. US officials and lawmakers grew wary of the potential for the Chinese government to influence ByteDance or access the data of TikTok's American users. Even with Trump's decisive election victory and incoming Republican-led Congress, acquiescing to the president-elect's desire and preventing the ban faces significant hurdles. The law enjoyed rare bipartisan support in a divided Washington, making its outright repeal through a vote in Congress politically unlikely even with Trump's influence over Republicans. The Supreme Court may offer the clearest path forward. TikTok has appealed to the nation's highest court, arguing the law violates First Amendment rights to free speech. The court, which is dominated by Trump-aligned conservatives, will hear the case on January 10, just nine days before the ban takes effect. This follows a lower appeals court's unanimous decision to uphold the law in December. Another possibility, according to Tobias, is that a Trump-led Department of Justice could determine ByteDance has addressed the law's national security concerns. However, such a move would likely be seen as caving to China by Congress and others. The final option is ByteDance selling to a non-Chinese buyer, though the company has consistently refused this possibility. With 170 million monthly active users, acquiring TikTok's US operations would require substantial resources. As president, Trump could extend the ban deadline by 90 days to facilitate a transaction. Few potential buyers have emerged, with major tech companies likely deterred by antitrust concerns. Former Trump Treasury secretary Steve Mnuchin, who runs a private equity fund backed by Japan's SoftBank Group and Abu Dhabi's Mubadala sovereign wealth fund, has expressed interest. During a recent event with Trump, SoftBank CEO Masayoshi Son pledged to invest $100 billion in the US economy, though specific investments weren't detailed. Other contenders include US real estate billionaire Frank McCourt, who aims to make social media safer through his Project Liberty organization. Elon Musk, given his proximity to Trump and ownership of X, could also have a role to play, as he has expressed plans to transform the text-focused platform into something more like TikTok. A senior Republican lawmaker recently suggested Trump might orchestrate a "deal of the century" satisfying both US concerns and ByteDance's interests. The chairman of the US House committee on China, John Moolenaar, told Fox News Digital that once ByteDance accepts it must comply with US law, the situation could progress rapidly. Any agreement would need Beijing's approval, with US-China relations expected to remain tense during Trump's upcoming term. This isn't the first attempt to resolve TikTok's US status. In 2020, Trump also threatened a ban unless ByteDance sold its US operations. While Oracle and Walmart reached a preliminary agreement with ByteDance for ownership stakes, legal challenges and the transition to the Biden administration prevented the deal's completion. arp/mlmIt has been described as "one of Australia's worst days of Test cricket" and it's hard to argue after India completely put the hosts to the sword on day three. From start to finish, it was complete annihilation in Perth, from young gun Yashasvi Jaiswal notching a century to Jasprit Bumrah tearing a hole in the top order. While a lot of the hype will be around Virat Kohli's breakthrough ton after 16 months , the performance from the Aussies has raised major alarm bells for the rest of the series. READ MORE: Kohli sends 'ominous' warning to Aussies with dominant ton READ MORE: Luckless star suffers injury scare in 'bizarre' moment READ MORE: 'Drama' haunts Smith on final day as young gun wins title "I doubt that an overseas player has come to Australia in the last 15 years and played in this fashion," Indian legend Ravi Shastri said on Fox Cricket. "To set up the series - they call him the king - to get a hundred in the very first Test match, it's a terrific signal for India and it's ominous from an Australian point of view." Virat Kohli scored an impressive century on day three. Getty Australia could only muster up six wickets as India set a mammoth total, declaring with just half an hour left to play and giving the home team a tough period to see out. Unfortunately, the red-hot Bumrah wreaked havoc once again, taking the wickets of Nathan McSweeney and Marnus Labuschagne to leave the Aussies reeling at 3-12. The dismissal of Labuschagne in particular raised some eyebrows, especially after the No.3 batter opted to review a clear lbw despite not offering a shot. Labuschagne's work with ball in hand also came under fire after the umpires warned him for negative bowling due to too many leg-side deliveries. Test legend Adam Gilchrist was stunned by the usage of the part-timer, who switched from his short-pitched medium pace to leg-spin as India moved towards declaration. "Have you ever seen such a despondent team of Australian cricketers, resorting to those tactics? What are deemed negative, illegal tactics by the rulebook," he said. English legend Michael Vaughan agreed with the former Aussie wicketkeeper. "I've not seen that," he said. "I'm looking at this Australian side, they're a terrific side, and for whatever reason they bowl out India for 150, then only bat well enough to only get 104, and then with the ball in hand they had periods where they bowled nicely. "But that last half an hour is something I've not seen in Australia. Every boundary rider was on the fence, Labuschagne's bowling around the wicket, he's bowling negatively." Marnus Labuschagne during the first Test. Getty The fragile batting order that was exposed in the first innings is already in trouble the second time around, with McSweeney and Labuschagne gone. Across the board, day three was an absolute shambles and it's impossible to take any positives from it from an Aussie perspective, with a humbling loss all but inevitable. While the match isn't officially done and dusted, social media was quick to react and cast doubt over Australia's ability to bounce back in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy. When play resumes on Monday, the next batter in is Steve Smith - a player struggling for form and clearly unable to deal with the awkward pace and height of Bumrah. From there, it's over to the big hitters Travis Head and Mitchell Marsh to try and salvage something from this clash, before the series heads to Adelaide. To make matters worse, India has four superstars waiting in the wings. Shubman Gill is expected to return at some stage from a thumb injury, spin duo Ravi Ashwin and Ravindra Jadeja should play a role, while captain Rohit Sharma will be back on deck for the second Test after missing this one due to personal reasons. It's a scary thought for Aussie fans, but there are still four games to make amends.People of Punjab experiencing real change now: Azma
It’s almost time for Spotify Wrapped. When can you expect your 2024 recap?Actor and former Bigg Boss contestant Ajaz Khan has attributed his dismal performance in the 2024 Maharashtra Assembly elections to alleged tampering with Electronic Voting Machines (EVMs). Contesting from Versova on an Aazad Samaj Party (Kanshi Ram) ticket, Ajaz managed to secure just 155 votes, fewer than the None of the Above (NOTA) option. Reacting to the results on X (formerly Twitter), Ajaz blamed EVMs for his defeat, asserting that even seasoned politicians and prominent party candidates had underperformed. “It’s all a game of EVMs,” he wrote. “Candidates with years of political experience, big party backing, and huge campaigns are either losing or receiving shockingly low votes. I’m a social worker trying to be the voice of the people and will continue to do so.” Ajaz also expressed sympathy for candidates who spent crores on their campaigns but faced humiliating losses. The Aazad Samaj Party, led by MP Chandrashekhar Azad ‘Ravan,’ has a limited presence in Maharashtra, and Ajaz’s results reflect the party’s struggle to gain traction. Known more for controversies and social media activity than politics, Ajaz’s foray into elections has highlighted his limited appeal, with his political future appearing uncertain.

GAINESVILLE, Fla. (AP) — DJ Lagway threw two touchdown passes, Montrell Johnson ran for 127 yards and a score, and Florida upset No. 9 Mississippi 24-17 on Saturday to knock the Rebels out of College Football Playoff contention. The Gators (6-5, 4-4 Southeastern Conference), who topped LSU last week, beat ranked teams in consecutive weeks for the first time since 2008 and became bowl eligible. The late-season spurt provided another vote of confidence for coach Billy Napier, who is expected back for a fourth season. Ole Miss (8-3, 4-3), which entered the day as a 10-point favorite, lost for the first time in four games and surely will drop out of the 12-team playoff picture. The Rebels ranked ninth in the latest CFP and needed only to avoid stumbling down the stretch against Florida and lowly Mississippi State to clinch a spot in the playoff field. But coach Lane Kiffin’s team failed to score in three trips inside the red zone and dropped countless passes in perfect weather. No. 2 OHIO ST. 38, No. 5 INDIANA 15 COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — Will Howard passed for two touchdowns and rushed for another, TreVeyon Henderson ran for a score and No. 2 Ohio State beat previously undefeated No. 5 Indiana. All Ohio State (10-1, 7-1 Big Ten, CFP No. 2) has to do now is beat Michigan at home next Saturday and it will earn a return to the Big Ten championship game for the first time since 2020 and get a rematch with No. 1 Oregon. The Ducks beat Ohio State 32-31 in a wild one back on Oct. 12. The Hoosiers (10-1, 7-1, No. 5 CFP) had their best chance to beat the Buckeyes for the first time since 1988 but were hurt by special teams mistakes and disrupted by an Ohio State defense that sacked quarterback Kurtis Rourke five times. Howard finished 22 for 26 for 201 yards. Emeka Egbuka had seven catches for 80 yards and a TD. No. 8 GEORGIA 59, UMass 21 ATHENS, Ga. (AP) — Carson Beck threw four touchdown passes, Nate Frazier ran for 136 yards with three scores and No. 8 Georgia overwhelmed Massachusetts as the Bulldogs tried to protect their College Football Playoff hopes. Georgia (9-2, No. 10 CFP) needed the big offense from Beck and Frazier to rescue a defense that gave up 226 rushing yards. UMass (2-9) played its first game under interim coach Shane Montgomery, the offensive coordinator who retained his play-calling duties after replacing fired coach Don Brown on Monday. Jalen John led the Minutemen with 107 rushing yards and a touchdown. Georgia extended its streak of consecutive home wins to 30, the longest active streak in the Football Bowl Subdivision. No. 10 TENNESSEE 56, UTEP 0 KNOXVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — Nico Iamaleava threw for 209 yards and four touchdowns to lead No. 10 Tennessee to a victory over UTEP. The Volunteers (9-2) overcame a sluggish start to roll up the impressive win. Both teams were scoreless in the first quarter, but Tennessee found its rhythm. Grad student receiver Bru McCoy, who hadn’t caught a touchdown pass this season, had two. Peyton Lewis also ran for two scores. Tennessee’s defensive line, which had no sacks in last week’s loss to Georgia, had three against the Miners. UTEP (2-9) struggled with two missed field goals and three turnovers. Tennessee’s offense came alive with 28 points in the second quarter. In the final four drives of the quarter, Iamaleava completed 11 of 12 passes for 146 yards and touchdowns to Squirrel White, Ethan Davis and McCoy. No. 11 MIAMI 42, WAKE FOREST 14 MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. (AP) — Cam Ward passed for 280 yards and threw two touchdowns to Jacolby George on another record-breaking day, Mishael Powell ran an interception back 76 yards for a touchdown and No. 11 Miami pulled away late to beat Wake Forest. The Hurricanes (10-1, 6-1 Atlantic Coast Conference, No. 8 College Football Playoff) can clinch a berth in the ACC title game with a win at Syracuse next weekend. Ward completed 27 of 38 passes, plus ran for a score. He broke two more single-season Miami records, both of which had been held for 40 years by Bernie Kosar — most passing yards in a season and most completions in a season. Ward now has 3,774 yards on 268 completions this season. Kosar threw for 3,642 yards on 262 completions in 1984. Demond Claiborne had a 100-yard kickoff return for a touchdown for Wake Forest (4-7, 2-5). Claiborne also rushed for 62 yards for the Demon Deacons, and starting quarterback Hank Bachmeier was 8 of 14 passing for 86 yards and a touchdown. No. 13 SMU 33, VIRGINIA 7 CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va. (AP) — Kevin Jennings threw for a career-high 323 yards and two touchdowns and ran for another, and No. 13 SMU clinched a spot in the Atlantic Coast Conference championship game by routing Virginia. Isaiah Smith and Jared Harrison-Hunte each had two sacks to help the Mustangs (10-1, 7-0, No. 13 CFP) extend their winning streak to eight. They would earn an automatic bid into the expanded College Football Playoff by beating 11th-ranked Miami or 17th-ranked Clemson in the ACC title game on Dec. 7 in Charlotte, North Carolina. SMU had to get there first, and Jennings led the way again, bouncing back from an interception and a fumble to complete 25 of 33 passes to six different receivers, including TD tosses to Jordan Hudson and Matthew Hibner. Brashard Smith provided a little balance on offense, running for 63 yards and his 13th touchdown of the season. SMU’s defense overwhelmed UVa’s offensive line, sacking Anthony Colandrea nine times and allowing the Cavaliers (5-6, 3-4) just 173 yards. Special teams contributed, too, with Roderick Daniels Jr. returning a punt 48 yards and Collin Rogers making two field goals. No. 24 ILLINOIS 38, RUTGERS 31 PISCATAWAY, N.J. (AP) — Luke Altmyer found Pat Bryant for a catch-and-run, 40-yard touchdown pass with 4 seconds left, sending No. 24 Illinois to a wild victory over Rutgers. Illinois (8-3, 5-3 Big Ten) was down 31-30 when it sent long kicker Ethan Moczulski out for a desperation 58-yard field goal with 14 seconds to go. Rutgers coach Greg Schiano then called for a timeout right before Moczulski’s attempt was wide left and about 15 yards short. After the missed field goal was waved off by the timeout, Illinois coach Bret Bielema sent his offense back on the field. Altmyer hit Bryant on an in cut on the left side at the 22, and he continued across the field and scored untouched in a game that featured three lead changes in the final 3:07. Rutgers (6-5, 3-5) gave up a safety on the final kickoff return, throwing a ball out of bounds in the end zone as players passed it around hoping for a miracle touchdown. Altmyer was 12-of-26 passing for 249 yards and two touchdowns. Bryant finished with seven receptions for 197 yards.
