Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Saturday addressed the ‘Hala Modi’ event in Kuwait which was attended by the Indian diaspora. The Indian prime minister is on a two-day-long visit to the Gulf nation at the invitation of Amir Sheikh Meshal Al-Ahmad Al-Jaber Al-Sabah. This is the first time an Indian prime minister has visited Kuwait in 43 years. The last leader to do so was former prime minister Indira Gandhi. “It takes you four hours to reach here from India, it took four decades for an Indian PM to travel to Kuwait,” PM Modi said. Kuwait: Addressing the community program 'Hala Modi', Prime Minister Narendra Modi says, "This is a special moment for me.

I want to celebrate your capabilities,” he said. #WATCH | Shaikh Saad Al Abdullah Indoor Sports Complex in Kuwait | PM Modi at the Community Event #HalaModi , says, "...People from North, West, East and South, who speak different languages are here- 'lekin sab ke dil me ek hi goonj hai - Bhatrat Mata Ki Jai'..."

The people of India also honour your contributions,” PM Modi further said. Talking about India-Kuwait ties, PM Modi said, “Kuwait through trade and innovation, wants to be a dynamic economy. India is also focusing on innovation and strengthening its economy... India has the skill, technology, innovation and manpower that ‘New’ Kuwait needs.” #WATCH | Shaikh Saad Al Abdullah Indoor Sports Complex in Kuwait | PM Modi at the Community Event #HalaModi , says, "Kuwait through trade and innovation, wants to be a dynamic economy.

He interacted with a cross-section of Indian workers from different states of India, enquired about their well-being, also sat at a table with some of them at the Gulf Spic Labour Camp when snacks were served. “The visit to the labour camp is symbolic of the importance attached by the Prime Minister to the welfare of Indian workers abroad. In the last few years, the government has undertaken several technology-based initiatives such as e-Migrate portal, MADAD portal and upgraded Pravasi Bharatiya Bima Yojana for the welfare of Indian workers abroad,” an MEA statement said. “Modi interacted with Indian workers & enquired about their well-being. PM’s first engagement of the day signifies the importance India attaches to the welfare of Indian workers abroad,” the MEA posted on X along with the photos from the event.

ZX Spectrum: The computer that became a 1980s icon - BBC
NoneTEMPE, Ariz. (AP) — Caleb McCullough was there for the dark times at Arizona State, when the losses piled up and the cloud of an NCAA investigation was hovering over the program. The senior linebacker opted to stick around, believing in coach Kenny Dillingham's vision for a better future. It came sooner than anyone outside the program expected. "I’m doing whatever I can to win,” McCullough said. “I’m not really a stat player. This is my last year of college and my main goal is just to win.” The Sun Devils are doing just that, becoming one of college football's biggest surprises along the way. Picked to finish last in its first Big 12 season, Arizona State (8-2, 5-2 Big 12) now controls its destiny for a spot in the conference title game. The 21st-ranked Sun Devils have already clinched their first bowl berth since 2021, the year they were last ranked in the AP Top 25 before this week. Arizona State has taken down two ranked teams this season, 27-19 over then-No. 16 Utah on Oct. 11 and 24-14 at then-No. 20 Kansas State last weekend. The Sun Devils will play their biggest home game in recent memory against No. 14 BYU on Saturday , the first home game between ranked teams in Tempe since 2014. Beat the Cougars and Arizona State can clinch a spot in the Big 12 Championship on Dec. 7 in Arlington, Texas, with a win over rival Arizona in the regular-season finale. “It means a lot to these guys to come in here with that chip on their shoulder and do something that really nobody thought we could do,” Dillingham said. Arizona State faced adversity on and off the field when Dillingham arrived in 2023. After winning eight games in 2021, the Sun Devils went 3-9 the following year while under investigation by the NCAA, a combination that led to the firing of Herm Edwards during his fifth season here. Dillingham had success as Oregon's offensive coordinator and brought the requisite enthusiasm of being a young — he was 32 at the time — first-time head coach returning to his alma mater. Despite rallying the community around the program, Dillingham fell into hard luck his first season in the desert. The Sun Devils were decimated by injuries, particularly at quarterback, and never recovered, finishing 3-9 for the second straight season. But Dillingham had the pieces in place. He proved to be adept at finding the right players through the transfer portal, landing former Sacramento State running back Cam Skattebo two years ago and former Michigan State quarterback Sam Leavitt prior to this season. The hard-running Skattebo has been one of the nation's best running backs and Leavitt has been a perfect fit for Arizona State's offense, making good decisions while extending plays with his legs. The portal success extends across Arizona State's roster and Dillingham has sprinkled in solid recruiting classes while convincing key players to remain, a combination that's meshed into a team that could crash the College Football Playoff if the pieces fall just right. “We were a three-win team twice,” Dillingham said. “We were under NCAA sanctions. Most head coaches, to be brutally honest, get fired if you take a job under sanctions. You don’t survive. You’re hired to be fired. That’s the nature of the beast and right now we’re sitting here at 8-2, and I couldn’t be prouder." Dillingham's vision for a better future, one the rest of the country didn't see coming, is here and now.

A paid internship program has partnered with a Central Oregon nonprofit that teaches skills for rural living to let high school students run the organization’s website and program registration, where they learn valuable tech skills while providing a useful service. Mark Gross, founder and executive director of School of Ranch, moved to Central Oregon a few years ago after a lifetime living in cities, and found he needed to learn skills needed to live on a ranch. He connected with a local to learn how to cut down trees safely, then decided to create School of Ranch so others can learn those types of practical and artisan skills. Classes range from welding to soap-making to food preservation and animal husbandry. In the past few months, Gross has expanded that teaching to technology skills as his interns have learned how to handle the school’s website, advertising and registration for new programs and classes. “We’re volunteer-led and student-run, that’s the goal,” he said. “I found ways to work with kids and give them real life experiences in technology...what I’m doing here is just an extension of that same idea.” Gross has five interns who can work where they want, when they want and on what they’re interested in. He’s been running this program for around three months, he said, after several attempts at running an internship program. “I discovered how to do this by getting it wrong like thirty times,” he said. “Intern programs usually suck. ... You’re doing fake work, you’re sort of doing made up things, you’re shadowing people and following them around but you’re not really part of anything.” Gross is aware that high schoolers have a lot of other things going on in their lives. He’s designed an internship that allows them to be flexible in their work. Gross and the students have created how-to guides for how to use the software tools to manage the registration forms, webpages, the website’s calendar and advertising campaigns on Facebook and Instagram. Each workshop School of Ranch runs has a webpage created by interns. “Almost all the touch points that (participants) have prior going to the workshop are being put together, run, administrated by high school students,” he said. Gross wants to open the opportunity to as many high school students as he can. “I’m not trying with this thing to reach super A-plus students in super targeted career paths,” he said. “We’ll be bringing in kids with different socioeconomic backgrounds and different life experiences and giving them this kind of experience in a way that’s palatable to them.” Interns can virtually pick up tasks they’re interested in, and if they want to start something that’s new to them, they need to be trained first. Gross created tools with ChatGPT to speed up the process. “I hope to expand the range of activities that students are involved in,” Gross said. “In my experience this is a very novel way of approaching an internship program: the ‘grab me’ model, lack of a schedule, the students are involved and engaged in building the systems that they’re using, giving them real responsibility...If they get this wrong, people can’t register.” Cohen Herbert, 18, is one of School of Ranch’s interns, and said the program has been fun and helpful. He found out about it in his school’s Future Center, which helps students find work, internships and scholarships. He works on the internship for three to 10 hours a week, and said he wants to do it for as long as he can. “It’s very laid back and not stressful at all,” said Herbert, who is a high school student in Bend. He is also pursuing an associate’s degree from Central Oregon Community College. “It’s probably the best newbie job that gets into a direct field....It’s a good job, pays really well and gives me experience that looks really good for me and it’s just enjoyable all the way around.” The internship is organized through Youth Career Connect, East Cascades Works and the Youth Compass program. Youth Career Connect is partially funded by Bend-La Pine Schools and Jefferson County School District. It contributes funds, as does East Cascades Works, and the Central Oregon Intergovernmental Council’s Youth Compass program uses those funds for intern specialists who work with high schools to recruit students to look at potential internship opportunities. The specialists also make sure students are ready with interview practice and a completed resume. Businesses or nonprofits in the area, like School of Ranch, host the interns. The Youth Compass program has state and federal grant money that they use to pay interns. School of Ranch interns are paid $20 an hour: the grant pays $15, and School of Ranch pays $5. For every 60 hours they work, they earn half an elective credit toward their high school diploma. Gross is looking forward to expanding the program. “I’m amazed at how much of my work I can now trust my team with,” he said. “The original ideas I had, half of them are just wrong, just proven wrong by what actually happens. I’m modifying my expectations of what how this would work.”
Johnson Controls prices senior notes offeringWhat does Sean Manaea's reunion with the Mets mean for the player, team and rest of this offseason?Up to 70 parents and businesses have now made allegations that they have lost money to former international footballer Natasha Harding. It is understood the total figure lost could be almost £70,000. The former Reading captain, who is one of Wales' most capped players and now uses her married name of Allen-Wyatt, is facing a number of claims, including that she took money for one-to-one coaching with children that she did not deliver. Ms Allen-Wyatt said she had to cancel "some sessions" due to circumstances outside her control, and apologised to those affected. Since the first allegations emerged, parents and businesses from south Wales, north Wales, Gloucestershire and Worcestershire have told BBC Wales about their own experiences with Ms Allen-Wyatt, in fresh claims amounting to £27,000. Meanwhile, a parent who set up a WhatsApp group for those affected said their claims totalled around £40,000. Reports have been made to a number of police forces in Wales and England, some of which have been passed on to Action Fraud, which co-ordinates fraud complaints from all regions. Action Fraud said at least one report "is currently being assessed" by the National Fraud Intelligence Bureau. Former teammates have also revealed to the BBC that some of Ms Allen-Wyatt's actions "also impacted ourselves, our families and friends". Ms Allen-Wyatt's former club, Manchester City, has been urged to cut its ties with her as a pundit and commentator. Andy Hughes, a voluntary coach for Northop Hall Girls' under-12s and under-13s in Flintshire, said Ms Allen-Wyatt had offered one-to-one coaching to team members after appearing as a guest on his podcast, This Girl Can Play, and mentioning she wanted to expand her academy to north Wales. She subsequently signed up 12 players for 10 sessions of coaching, at a cost of £280 per player. But only two blocks of coaching sessions were delivered, with subsequent sessions cancelled or postponed after Ms Allen-Wyatt told Mr Hughes that she had suffered two family bereavements. No further sessions were arranged, and Mr Hughes said no refunds had been given. He said, "I was really, really disappointed. For someone who played the game at that level and who’s an icon to the next generation of women footballers, these sessions were really important. "How do you explain to an 11-year-old girl that their Welsh hero isn’t going to come and coach them after all, and that they’ve let them down? "I'm gutted that someone we put forward as a great opportunity has turned out like this. It's a shame because the coaching she did deliver was good." Daniel Rees, who runs Cardiff Classic Shirts, agreed to sponsor Ms Allen-Wyatt after she contacted him through social media. He gave her £500, for which he was promised the company would be advertised on her academy training shirts, hoodies and jackets for a period of two years. Mr Rees said he had seen no evidence of this being done and not received any explanation despite trying to contact her. "I couldn't find any pictures of shirts that were meant to be printed up, just a mock-up I was sent," he said. "I never thought the worst, I just thought she was having a run of bad luck and it would come good. "To see now that it's so widespread has come as a bit of a shock to the system." Mr Rees said he was also promised two worn Wales match shirts, which never materialised. Kate Parker, a keen Wales football fan, purchased coaching sessions as a Christmas gift for her niece after seeing the Tash Harding Academy on social media. Ms Parker, who runs two pubs in the Caerphilly area, paid further amounts for sponsorship through the academy and kit for her niece, with the total coming to £1,335. However, only one training session was delivered, a second one cancelled, and eventually Ms Parker asked for a full refund. Just £350 has been returned to her, in three instalments, with £885 remaining outstanding. "She'd promised my niece a Wales shirt as well... it's a big thing when you're a kid," said Ms Parker. "My niece is quite shy, I've been to a couple of her football matches and she doesn't get involved as much as the others. "She was quite upset but my sister sat her down and explained that (the coaching) couldn't happen, and that's that." BBC Wales approached Ms Allen-Wyatt or comment about these latest claims but received no response.
