Kartik Aaryan, who is basking in the success of Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3, is speculated to have a belief that he is a better actor than Pushpa 2 star Allu Arjun. For those unaware, Kartik was earlier compared with the South superstar when he featured in the 2023 Hindi film Shehzada, which was a remake of his 2020 Telugu film Ala Vaikunthapurramuloo. A fan on X (formerly known as Twitter) shared a post featuring Kartik’s photo and Allu Arjun’s photo, and captioned it as, “Unpopular opinion but #KartikAaryan is a far better actor than #AlluArjun.” Shared on December 28, 2024, the post received 85.2k views and 434 likes so far. Kartik was also among the X users who liked the post, as the fan in anothe tweet expressed gratitude to the actor for liking the post. December 28, 2024 The fan also posted a screen recording to prove that Kartik indeed liked the post that claimed he is a better actor than Allu Arjun. “He liked here's the recording Thank you sir #KartikAaryan love you so much.” Several of Allu Arjun’s fans came forward to express their outrage. “I don't know but why I'm laughing are you kidding you are comparing Allu Arjun (nation award winner) to a hero who makes him popular with his PR. Allu Arjun's Arya>>>>>>>> ur PR hero”, said Allu’s fan. December 29, 2024 The fan post triggered an online war between Kartik and Allu Arjun's fandom on social media. Reacting to this, the fan replied, "Don't mess with #KartikAaryan army strictly warning you guys #AlluArjun fans Thanks @kartikgreatest @KattarAaryan for this it was much needed." December 29, 2024 Meanwhile, Kartik announced his new film titled Tu Meri Main Tera, Main Tera Tu Meri under the Dharma Productions banner. The film marks his first major collaboration with Karan Johar after the Dostana 2 fallout. The announcement generated excitement as reports suggest Kartik will earn a substantial Rs 50 crore for his role. With a budget of Rs 150 crore, the project is being hailed as one of the most ambitious romantic comedies in recent years.Dr. Sulphi Noohu, a well-known doctor in Kerala, is one of the most active voices on social media, especially on public health and doctors' organisational issues. Currently serving at Thiruvananthapuram General Hospital, he recently proposed the idea of reviving the family doctor system in one of his social media posts. For some time now, the necessity of such a system has been discussed at the government level and elsewhere. The idea of a family doctor is not new. It was a system that existed almost everywhere in Kerala about thirty years ago. Although not entirely lost, many people still follow it to some extent. Reflecting on this, Dr. Noohu recalls his childhood in Thazhakkara, a village in the Mavelikkara taluk. Thazhakkara was unique because of its proximity to Mavelikkara Taluk Hospital, which is now a district hospital. Despite this, small clinics were abundant in the area. One such clinic, less than a kilometre from Dr. Noohu’s house, was the Kalladal Dispensary, where Dr. K.M. Varghese served. Dr. Noohu reminisces about the personal and efficient care provided by Dr. Varghese. According to him, the doctor was not just a medical professional but a trusted family figure who understood the health history of his patients. "If an adult comes to the doctor with some minor illness, there is one question: 'What?... What happened to you?'. That question itself would give some relief. After that, he would start examining, tap the chin, hold the eyes. He wouldn't ask more and then he would give me medicine, and the illness would go away. Sometimes, he would use a stethoscope or a thermometer to examine the patient," he said. "The reason is that, like my family, he knew exactly about my health journey from birth to that time. We would only go to another hospital if the doctor at Kalladal told us to," he added. Such family doctors were once a common sight in Kerala, providing care to entire communities. However, over time, societal changes and advancements in healthcare have led to their decline. With the emergence of super-speciality hospitals, there has been a shift from small clinics to larger institutions. While this has improved access to specialised care, it has also eroded the personalised, community-based healthcare system. Dr. Noohu points out that the absence of family doctors has adversely affected the healthcare system. Today, patients often bypass primary care centres and go directly to large hospitals, even for minor ailments. This trend has led to higher healthcare costs and a fragmented system where patients are treated for isolated conditions rather than as whole individuals. The government has recently issued directives to encourage gradual referrals starting from primary health centres. However, these measures are largely ineffective in the private sector, where patients with financial resources can skip these steps. Dr. Noohu argues that the family doctor system is still relevant and could address many of these issues. "The concept of a family doctor is still relevant. Although we also had such a system, it has become very rare now. In foreign countries, the family physician is still a very important factor. The patient-doctor relationship is a crucial element in treatment," he said. "A family doctor can provide excellent and low-cost treatment. It is desirable to treat not only the disease but the patient as a whole. However, in the era of monopoly, how to effectively use the family doctor system with the help of new technology is something everyone should consider," he added.Power Lawyers: THR’s Top Music Attorneys of 2024UAE supports diplomatic efforts to resolve crisis in Sudan
Trump again calls to buy Greenland after eyeing Canada and the Panama Canal
Michigan (7-5) is not the juggernaut of a program who ran through their schedule undefeated enroute to a national championship last year, as their 90th ranked SP+ offense has dramatically reduced their ability to keep pace with the rest of the expanded Big Ten. UM went 4-2 through the first half of the schedule, but then dropped 3-of-4 to @Illinois (21-7), Oregon (38-17) and @Indiana (20-15), before scorching Northwestern 50-6. However, the 5-loss season was all but forgotten by the Michigan faithful when they went into the Horseshoe and planted big “M” on midfield after a thrilling 13-10 victory over the Buckeyes. The Wolverines finally settled on former walk-on QB Davis Warren who emerged from an early-season three-QB rotation to win the job. UM ranks second-to-last nationally (134th) in passing explosiveness and plays at the 131 st slowest pace in the country. Their run defense is stout ranking 16th in success rate allowed, while UM’s secondary ranks 15th in pass explosiveness but is allowing a 61.1% completion rate (74th) and is a few notches down from their dominant 2023 version. Despite losing to Tennessee 24-17 and getting upset by Vanderbilt 40-35 despite a 99% post-game win expectancy, Alabama (9-3) was still in control of their own destiny to make the CFP Playoff heading into their Week 13 tilt with Oklahoma (6-7). However, the Tide and QB Jalen Milroe got smothered by the Sooners’ defense, completing 11-of-27 passes with three interceptions in the humiliating 24-3 blowout loss which ultimately sunk their playoff hopes and landed Bama in this SEC vs. B10 Blue Blood showdown with the Wolverines. The Crimson Tide have been explosive on offense once again, ranking 5th in 20+ yard play rate (9.1%) and 13th in marginal explosiveness, with the passing game leading the way courtesy of a 49% pass success rate (11th). Defensively they rank 9th nationally and rank 10th in EPA/dropback. However, the Bama pass rush is a shell of their former selves, ranking 84th in sacks per dropback (5.2%) and 66th with a 35% pressure rate.

Game odds for 2024 Tony the Tiger Sun Bowl Alabama vs. Michigan *odds courtesy of BetMGM Moneyline: Alabama Crimson Tide (-500), Michigan Wolverines (+375) Spread: Crimson Tide (-13.5) Over/Under: 43.5 points We got an Alabama -11.5/-395 opening line which has now bumped up to -13.5 with a -600 moneyline in some spots and is inching closer to the key number of -14. The total on the other hand, has held steady at 43.5. NBC Sports Bet Best Bet NBC Sports Betting Analyst Eric Froton (@CFFroton) thinks: “Michigan is dealing with a slew of impact opt outs, including their two-star DTs Graham & Grant, CB Will Johnson (Inj.), LT Myles Hinton and both RBs Kalel Mullings/Donovan Edwards. I cannot help but think that the Ohio State game was Michigan’s icing on the cake, and I question how much seasoned talent will be on the field for UM. Accordingly, I’m taking Alabama to score OVER 27.5 points.” Listen to the Bet the Edge podcast as hosts Jay Croucher and Drew Dinsick provide listeners with sharp actionable insight, market analysis and statistical data to help bettors gain more information before placing their wagers. Quarterback matchup for 2024 Tony the Tiger Sun Bowl Alabama vs. Michigan Michigan: The quarterback three-man-weave between Davis Warren, Alex Orji and Jack Tuttle failed in their effort to replicate departed QB JJ McCarthy’s success. Orji was notably behind the others in terms of passing acumen, producing just 148 passing yards on 43 attempts before mercifully being pulled in favor of Indiana transfer Jack Tuttle. Tuttle was barely serviceable before retiring and turning the job back to Warren. Since being reinserted into the starting role against Michigan State in Week 9, Warren has been a steady, if unspectacular, steward of the UM offense completing 63.6% of his passes with a 6-to-9 TD/INT ratio while averaging a mundane 5.7 yards per pass attempt. To his credit, Warren threw 6 interceptions through his first three starts, but since regaining the job in Week 9 he has turned the ball over just three times while fielding a respectable 68th percentile PFF offensive grade on the year. Alabama: QB Jalen Milroe took over the Alabama starting quarterback job in 2023 and proceeded to average 10.0 yards per attempt with a 23-to-6 ratio while earning an 88.7 overall grade that ranked 14th nationally. A great deal of Milroe’s value derives from his legs, rushing 313 times for 1,250 yards and 32 touchdowns over the last two years with an 85.3 run grade that ranked 3rd in FBS last year. His passing acumen has lagged a bit this season averaging 9.1 YPA with a 15-to-10 ratio and an 81.2 passing grade that ranks 23rd overall. Milroe made major strides handling the pass rush this season, going from a 31.9 pressure-to-sack rate to a much improved 17.1%. Alabama vs. Michigan: Betting Trends & Recent Stats Davis Warren has not completed a pass for 40+ yards on any of his 202 total passing attempts since the 2023 season, worst among Power Conference quarterbacks Michigan are 2-6 (.250) against the spread when converting less than 50% of third down conversion opportunities this season, 11th-worst in FBS. (Average: .440) Michigan’s offense has thrown for 20 or more yards on just 5.8% of 293 attempts this season, the 2nd-worst rate among FBS offenses. Alabama’s defense allowed 20+ yards on just 7.9% of attempts this season, 23rd-best among FBS defenses. Michigan are 1-4 (.200) against the spread when allowing 100 or more rushing yards this season, 10th-worst among Power Conference teams. (Average: .424) Kalel Mullings has rushed for 10 or more yards on just 16 of his 185 carries this season, tied for 4th-worst among Power Conference running backs. QB Davis Warren has thrown for first downs on just 23% of his pass attempts with 7-10 yards to go this season, 5th-worst among Power Conference Quarterbacks. Establishing manageable 3rd Down situations will be vital for Michigan. Ryan Williams has gained 40+ yards on 7 of his 45 receptions this season, best among Power Conference Skill Players. Germie Bernard has gained 20+ yards on 17 of his 46 receptions this season, 4th-best among Power Conference Skill Players. Alabama has tackled opponents for a loss on just 63-of-436 rushing attempts (14% TFL%) this season, 3rd-worst in the SEC. Michigan has gained 1,603 yards on 179 receptions (just 9.0 YPR) this season, worst among Big Ten skill players. Alabama’s defense has allowed just 10.2 Yards Per Reception this season, 2nd-best among SEC defenses. Jalen Milroe has thrown 5 TD passes in close and late situations this season, most among SEC Quarterbacks Alabama has allowed passes of 40+ yards on just 3 of 379 attempts this season, 2nd-best in the SEC.

Having taken time to adjust to life in Downing Street, Victoria is reportedly contemplating championing a charity or worthy cause. Despite her low profile and limited involvement in official duties thus far, she has maintained her role as an occupational therapist at a leading London hospital since Starmer assumed office. Insiders suggest that she might align herself with a charity or preferred cause next year, potentially health-related, provided it remains apolitical. Friends told Tatler magazine that she has "the option of reviewing her role when Keir has been in power for a year to see how it's going", adding that "if it changes, it will be on her terms". This would mark a significant shift for Victoria, who found herself embroiled in the freebies scandal involving her husband and his senior ministerial team last autumn. It was revealed in September that Sir Keir had neglected to declare financial contributions towards clothing from Lord Alli , a millionaire Labour donor, which included a personal shopper, designer clothes and alterations for Victoria. She was later spotted at London Fashion Week donning a custom-made outfit loaned to her by the designer. Labour MPs have noted that Lady Starmer tends to maintain a low profile. One MP told Tatler: "You can spend a lot of time around the Labour Party at high levels and never meet Victoria . It's her choice, of course. But there's a great appetite to see more of her." The article also disclosed that Sir Keir's family has fully relocated to Downing Street, nearly half a year after his election victory. The couple's two teenage children are reportedly well-adjusted in the No 10 flat following Starmer's initial solo move. Victoria and the children had been splitting their time between Downing Street and their north London home during a transitional phase. Last month's documents reveal that Starmer is now renting out their mortgage -free Kentish Town house. Sadiq Khan, the Mayor of London and a friend of the Starmers, confirmed that "they are all very well settled in and everyone is happy", adding: "I wouldn't ask them to change a thing while the children are growing up." Despite any potential increase in Victoria's public presence , it is anticipated that the Starmers will continue to protect their children's privacy. Their 16-year-old son and 14-year-old daughter remain unnamed publicly, with the prime minister rarely mentioning them to keep them away from public scrutiny.

Seven community causes share £12k worth of fundingDuring a key meeting, Governor Joaquín Díaz Mena received David Yang, a representative of Shijing Solar Power, to discuss the viability of this investment. The meeting was also attended by the Secretary of Economic Development and Labor, Ermilo Barrera Novelo, who highlighted the opportunities that Yucatán offers for large-scale projects in the energy sector. Governor Díaz Mena stressed that this preliminary agreement reinforces the state strategy to position Yucatán as a leader in renewable energies. Among the key projects that complement this vision is the Tizimín II wind plant, which strengthens clean energy infrastructure in the region. “Our state continues to stand out as an attractive destination for companies committed to sustainability, which promotes the generation of quality jobs and care for the environment,” said the state president. The Shijing Solar Power firm highlighted several key factors that make Yucatán an ideal place for this investment, including its strategic location, social stability, and ability to integrate into the global renewable energy chain. With this letter of intent, Yucatán aligns itself with its objective of diversifying the energy matrix and promoting a more efficient and sustainable development model. “The trust of international companies such as Shijing Solar Power reflects Yucatán’s commitment to sustainable development and strengthening the energy sector,” concluded Ermilo Barrera Novelo. This possible investment will not only diversify the local economy but will also contribute to technological advancement and the strengthening of the energy infrastructure in Yucatán, positioning it as a benchmark in renewable energies in Mexico.

A look at how some of Trump's picks to lead health agencies could help carry out Kennedy's overhaulLuka Doncic returned from a two-game absence to score 27 points, Daniel Gafford added 23 off the bench and Kyrie Irving finished with 20 as the Dallas Mavericks beat the Portland Trail Blazers 132-108 on Monday night. Doncic shot 10 of 19 overall and 1 for 7 on 3-pointers after missing Dallas’ two previous games with a left heel contusion. He had seven rebounds and seven assists. The Mavericks have won 14 of their last 17 games following their only losing streak of the season, a four-game skid from Nov. 8-14. Deni Avdija scored 19 off the bench to lead the Trail Blazers, who have lost eight of their last nine games. Deandre Ayton scored 16 points, including 10 in the second quarter. The Mavericks opened the second period with a 21-9 run and outscored the Blazers 74-45 in the middle periods. They led by as many as 32 in the fourth quarter.

Mavericks: After matching a season-high with eight double-figure scorers in their 113-97 win over the Los Angeles Clippers on Saturday, Dallas had five in double-figures by halftime. P.J. Washington’s 12 points in the first half came by hitting all four field goal attempts, two 3-pointers. Key moment Klay Thompson rebounded Shaedon Sharpe’s 3-point miss with 17 seconds left in the half, came downcourt and sank a 3-pointer with 8.3 left. That gave Dallas a 62-51 lead, its largest of the half. Key stat Thompson needed five 3-pointers to match Reggie Miller for fifth place in all-time 3s, but was 3 for 8. Up next The Mavericks host the Minnesota Timberwolves on Christmas. The Trail Blazers start a three-game homestand on Thursday against Utah.
