Musk causes uproar for backing Germany's far-right party ahead of key electionsAnant Nag On Turning Down KGF-Style Films, Including One With Jr NTR And Pawan Kalyan: 'I Have Moved On From That Genre' | EXCLUSIVEThe highly anticipated Peaky Blinders film "won't be the end" of the popular gangster series, creator Steven Knight has said. Oscar-winner Cillian Murphy is reprising his role as Birmingham gangster Tommy Shelby for the film, which is set following the events of the original BBC drama which ran for six series from 2013 to 2022. Following the film wrapping production, Knight has revealed that it will be around a year before the project is released. Speaking to Times Radio about a future release date, Knight said: "It's a bit too soon for that, but you know, you can sort of work out that it will be about a year." Asked if there are any more plans for Peaky Blinders beyond the film, he replied: "It's interesting you should ask that question because the film is coming out and that won't be the end." The screenwriter was questioned if that meant fans could expect more series in the future, but he refused to provide more details. The film is believed to be titled The Immortal Man and has been teased to involve new conflicts for the Shelby family set during the Second World War. Saltburn and The Banshees Of Inisherin star Barry Keoghan will join fellow Irish actor Murphy in the new film. Earlier this month a photo was shared by Netflix of the pair looking jubilant while wearing flat caps and suits as the streamer confirmed filming had wrapped on the project. Other returning cast members include British actors Stephen Graham as union organiser Hayden Stagg and Sophie Rundle as Ada Shelby, while Dune actress Rebecca Ferguson and Pulp Fiction actor Tim Roth have also joined the project. Tom Harper, who previously directed episodes in the first season in 2013, will return to helm the film. Knight previously told Netflix's Tudum site: "It will be an explosive chapter in the Peaky Blinders story. No holds barred. Full-on Peaky Blinders at war." When the series came to an end in 2022 after nine years, Tommy appeared to put his criminal past behind him. Across the six series, the show tackled the rise of fascism, Irish republican politics and communist activities throughout the period after the First World War - along with Tommy's ambitions in politics. Knight later created a stage adaptation of the show for a limited-run production, titled The Redemption Of Thomas Shelby, which featured performances from Rambert's dancers and a soundtrack from a live on-stage band.
LeBlanc and Joly offer little details about visit with Trump's team in FloridaIn its collaborative efforts with Nigeria to deliver high quality Medicare in Nigeria, an ultra-modern medical facility specializing in trauma-related ailments has been established in Lagos, Nigeria by the Indians. Nebula Care Hospital Limited with company number: RC-7133773, incorporated in Nigeria on Sep 12, 2023 is situated at Wilmer Street, Ilupeju, Lagos State. The chairman of Nebula Hospital Care Limited is Dr. J.G. Makadia. Nebula Care was opened on the 19th December, 2024, even as the management disclosed that the hospital has the latest high tech in medical delivery offerings and that it would handle general sickness, general trauma, joint replacement, spine, physiotherapy services, general surgery, gynaecology, Dentistry, radiology, x-ray, ECG, sonography, ultrasound, has pharmacy, and clinical laboratory, among others. Its specialty is in orthopaedic trauma, accidental trauma, related spine surgery, as a team of Indian medical specialists will be coming from India, to join their Nigerian counterparts to carry out major surgical operations as soon as the need arise.While declaring the hospital open, Consulate General of India/High Commissioner of India to Nigeria, Shri Chandramouli Kumar Kern, spoke glowingly about the hospital and the optimism it holds for Medicare in not only Lagos State but Nigeria in General. Makadia stated that Nebula is a very well-known name in the field of orthopaedic implant and related items. He said “I am very glad to open this facility, Nebula Care Hospital, it is going to be very significant in the health care system in Lagos and Nigeria. Nebula is a very well-known name in the field of orthopaedic implant and related items, they have many products which are very helpful in the rehabilitation of patients. “Modern day’s technology is evolving everyday so the health care system is also evolving, the most important this is the facilities are up to date and world class for the benefits of Lagosians. I am happy to note that this facility is wonderful. ”Shri Chandramouli Kumar Kern also spoke about the economic angle of the hospital to Nigerians as it is not only going to reduce medical tourism to India, it is going to bring down the cost of medical treatment. “It is possible to receive treatments for which Nigerians travel to India thereby saving millions of dollars on transportation. “This is possible, you see, I am going to give you an example, India is 9000 kilometers from this place, and still many people travel to India to obtain medical care, this facility is now right here in Lagos, it is going to be wonderful. You see people come to our Consulate for Visa and Visa is around a million, then after, the ticket is around a million, about N4million is spend without taking any medicine, without taking any medical care, but if you have the facility locally that would be more than enough for treating patients,He added that the hospital would br cost effective. “This is going to be cost effective also. This hospital can keep tracking people and when two, three patients are here, they could be operated here in their local Environment, they don’t have to eat Indian food, they would eat their own egusi soup, and get the treatment. You see, fantastic, I have come across many Nigerians, they said look, medical facility is wonderful but because of food I will not go to India. It is difficult, when you move to a place and you stay there for a month, it is difficult, the same thing if I have to go to America for treatment, it is going to be difficult for me. So it is a great thing that this facility is coming locally in Lagos and indeed Nigeria. ”I was at Java Moss they have started antibiotic factory, so they are going to be manufacturing antibiotics here, it is great. The local Indians are joining together with their Nigerian counterparts to create a better health care system that help to improve the health care ecosystem. “This is wonderful news, I congratulate the team of Nebular Care that this facility should be successful so that more value will be added in the health care system.Shri Chandramouli Kumar Kern who also commended other Indian investors in the healthcare system said the hospital is affordable. “If it is not cost effective this place will not grow, the local facility is certainly going to be cost effective, if they are bringing doctors from India or any other facilities, there would be five, ten, 20 people so that will spread the cost so it they charge you, it would be spread on 20 not on one person who is going to India. ”While stating that the facility is the only Nebula Hospital in Nigeria disclosed that India has very warm relationship with Nigeria. “Indian government has a very warm relationship with the Lagos State and Nigeria governments, you may be aware that the Indian Prime Minister was here and we had great engagement with the President, His Excellency Bola Ahmed Tinubu, and the cooperation is vibrant, and we are happy to assist the Nigerian healthcare system in any way possible. “I am saying we are for even the local production of medicine, we are not just for supplying of medicine from India, no, the medical facility should grow in Nigeria locally. We have witnessed this when Covid was there, people were having money but they could not get medicine, if there was local production of medicine, you would have medicine any time. So that is important that local manufacturing facility grow, and we are here to support this cause, with the API, the technology, the machine, everything. We are ready to assist Nigeria, Lagos State Government as far as the hospital is concerned,” he said.General Manager of Nebular Care Hospital Mr Jay Ghosalkai, made it public that the hospital handles all types of general sicknesses, general trauma, joint replacement, spine, physiotherapy services, general surgery, gynaecology, Dentistry, radiology, x-ray, ECG, sonography, ultra sound, has pharmacy, clinical laboratory. ”Our specialty is in orthopaedic trauma, anything accidental trauma, related spine surgery, my team will be coming from India, they are specialists. They are specialising in trauma and joint replacement, also we have some of the Nigerian doctors who are one of the best in Nigeria today, who will also be coming for surgery here.Razaq Olusola Ajala, Chairman, Odi-Olowo/Ojuwoye Local Council Development Area (LCDA) who was present at the inauguration of the hospital said he felt elated and happy. He acknowledged the contributions of Indians in Ilupeju where he is the chief host even as he averred that the hospital would be of mutual benefits to both the locals and the Indians. “This hospital in Idi-Olowo-Ojuwoye by extension, Lagos State will automatically reduce medical tourism, most of our people travel to India and other developed climes because of the belief that they have the capacity in terms of manpower and facilities to attend to their health challenges, so with the location of this facility given the number of experts that will be working within the facility, the equipment, our people need not look elsewhere, they will see this place as a destination of choice whenever they are challenged health-wise because the same treatment they are given in India and other climes, they can as well get it here. Why wasting your money traveling from here to India, if you even think of the attendant risks involved in travelling from here to those places, as I said earlier, it is a destination of choice,” Ajala stated.He said there is excellent relationship between his government and the Indian community and as the local government Chairman he would ensure his ward patronize the facility. “The truth is that we have excellent relationship with Indian community. You would agree with me that we have long history that is of mutual benefit to both parties, I mean Nigerians and Indians. When you are talking of communities with highest concentration of Indians, you would agree with me that Ilupeju happens to be one of that community, we have excellent relationship between the government of Idi-Olowo-Ojuwoye Local Council Development Area and the Indians here. “It is a symbiotic relationship, we are lucky the Indians are lucky, because we have used the instrumentality of our position to provide a conducive environment for them to sleep with their two eyes open, and for them to see our community as a destination of choice whenever they want to make investment decision. ”He said his government ensures the safety and well-being of everyone no matter the nationality or tribe. “My leadership platform ensures that everyone living within Idi-Olowo-Ojuwoye Local Council Development Area whether you are Indian, Briton, American, Nigerian, Yoruba, Igbo, Hausa, it is my responsibility as a government to ensure we have excellent relationship with all the security operatives of our people to be able to sleep with our two eyes closed, and to some extent, I think we have been able to achieve that.”
Go to the maxBERLIN (AP) — Tech entrepreneur Elon Musk caused uproar after backing Germany’s far-right party in a major newspaper ahead of key parliamentary elections in the Western European country, leading to the resignation of the paper’s opinion editor in protest. Germany is to vote in an early election on Feb. 23 after Chancellor Olaf Scholz’s three-party governing coalition collapsed last month in a dispute over how to revitalize the country’s stagnant economy. Musk's guest opinion piece for Welt am Sonntag — a sister publication of POLITICO owned by the Axel Springer Group — published in German over the weekend, was the second time this month he supported the Alternative for Germany, or AfD. “The Alternative for Germany (AfD) is the last spark of hope for this country," Musk wrote in his translated commentary. He went on to say the far-right party “can lead the country into a future where economic prosperity, cultural integrity and technological innovation are not just wishes, but reality.” The Tesla Motors CEO also wrote that his investment in Germany gave him the right to comment on the country's condition. The AfD is polling strongly, but its candidate for the top job, Alice Weidel , has no realistic chance of becoming chancellor because other parties refuse to work with the far-right party. An ally of U.S. President-elect Donald Trump, the technology billionaire challenged in his opinion piece the party's public image. “The portrayal of the AfD as right-wing extremist is clearly false, considering that Alice Weidel, the party’s leader, has a same-sex partner from Sri Lanka! Does that sound like Hitler to you? Please!” Musk’s commentary has led to a debate in German media over the boundaries of free speech, with the paper's own opinion editor announcing her resignation, pointedly on Musk's social media platform, X. “I always enjoyed leading the opinion section of WELT and WAMS. Today an article by Elon Musk appeared in Welt am Sonntag. I handed in my resignation yesterday after it went to print," Eva Marie Kogel wrote. The newspaper was also attacked by politicians and other media for offering Musk, an outsider, a platform to express his views, in favor of the AfD. Candidate for chancellor, Friedrich Merz, of the Christian Democratic Union, said Sunday that Musk's comments were “intrusive and presumptuous”. He was speaking to the newspapers of the German Funke Media Group. Co-leader of the Social Democratic Party, Saskia Esken said that “Anyone who tries to influence our election from outside, who supports an anti-democratic, misanthropic party like the AfD, whether the influence is organized by the state from Russia or by the concentrated financial and media power of Elon Musk and his billionaire friends on the Springer board, must expect our tough resistance,” according to the ARD national public TV network. Musk's opinion piece in the Welt am Sonntag was accompanied by a critical article by the future editor-in-chief of the Welt group, Jan Philipp Burgard. “Musk’s diagnosis is correct, but his therapeutic approach, that only the AfD can save Germany, is fatally wrong,” Burgard wrote. Responding to a request for comment from the German Press Agency, dpa, the current editor-in-chief of the Welt group, Ulf Poschardt, and Burgard — who is due to take over on Jan. 1 — said in a joint statement that the discussion over Musk's piece was "very insightful. Democracy and journalism thrive on freedom of expression.” “This will continue to determine the compass of the “world” in the future. We will develop “Die Welt” even more decisively as a forum for such debates,” they wrote to dpa.
Five things to look out for in the Welsh budget
It's been a long road back to the highest levels of motorsport for Canadian driver Robert Wickens. Six years after he was paralyzed in a violent wreck, Wickens will again be behind the wheel against some of the best drivers in North America. Wickens, from Guelph, Ont., was named the newest driver for DXDT Racing earlier this week, moving the 35-year-old up to IMSA GTD competition for 2025, the highest class on the WeatherTech SportsCar Championship series. His promotion was made possible by a new hand control braking system created by Bosch Electronics, with help from GM Motorsports and Corvette Racing/Pratt Miller. "It's not going to be easy but I wanted to get to the highest levels of motorsport again because, frankly, that's where I was when I was injured," said Wickens, who crashed at Pocono Raceway in 2018 during IndyCar's ABC Supply 500. "But not only that, I want to prove to myself and other generations of people with disabilities that you can really do anything. "Maybe you're having a hard time getting back to your place of work after a life-altering accident and — whatever your discipline, it doesn't even have to be athletics — but I know it's possible as long as you align yourself with a strong support system." For Wickens, that's been his wife Karli Wickens, his family and, in his professional life, organizations like Bosch and GM. Wickens's crash left him with a thoracic spinal fracture, a neck fracture, tibia and fibula fractures to both legs, fractures in both hands, a fractured right forearm, a fractured elbow, four fractured ribs, a pulmonary contusion, and an indeterminate spinal injury that combined to make him a paraplegic. As he has slowly recovered some movement in his legs, Wickens has eased back into motor racing. He drove the parade lap of the 2019 Honda Indy Toronto, competed in the IndyCar iRacing Challenge during the early days of the COVID-19 pandemic, and then in January 2022 it was announced he would drive in the Michelin Pilot Challenge for Bryan Herta Autosport. He and co-driver Mark Wilkins won twice in the Michelin Pilot Challenge's TCR category with three podiums in 2022. In 2023 the pairing didn't win, but they reached the podium seven times to earn the TCR championship. All of Wickens's post-accident cars have been fitted with hand controls. Those conventional systems rely on paddles around the steering wheel that activate pneumatics that then press the foot pedals. Hand controls like that are acceptable for regular road vehicles and even lower levels of motorsports but in the highest classes, like IMSA GTD where cars top out at more than 280 kilometres, the lag between the driver toggling the paddle and the car responding is unacceptably slow. That's where the Bosch electronic system comes in, with the controls linked directly to the car's braking system, removing the pneumatics as an intermediary. "When you hit the brakes to slow the car down for each corner that was always a big challenge for me where (with) the Bosch electronic system, the latency is milliseconds not tenths of a second," said Wickens. "It's basically as accurate as I would be if I was an able-bodied driver wanting to apply the brake. "Honestly, it's just better in every facet imaginable. It's just been a true blessing." Advances in physical rehabilitation from spinal cord injuries as well as the ongoing development of vehicle technology has made Wickens's return to competitive motorsport possible. "I'm very fortunate in the timing of my paralysis and my career," Wickens said Wednesday from Tampa, Fla. "If this was even a decade ago we'd be having a very different conversation today." The IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship has four classes of vehicles: two sports prototype categories and two grand tourer classes. GTD is considered the highest of the four classes because each team must have at least a silver or bronze driver and more than one platinum-rated driver on a team is prohibited. "I want to win," said Wickens. "I think the big thing for me on this journey back was I wanted to race again because I truly felt like I could still win. "I want to raise awareness for spinal cord injury and disability, not by just being a participant, but by being the guy. I want to win races, fight for podiums, win championships, every time I'm sitting in the car." Wickens said he won't just be a role model for people living with paralysis or other mobility disabilities, but the technology his car will employ in 2025 will likely become commercially available for use in road vehicles. "Motorsports and the automotive racing industry were founded to be a proving ground for everyday automotive vehicles," he said. "From there you make road cars and road safety better. "Hopefully we can provide the technology and have regularly available components that can make any race car accessible for anyone that needs hand controls or any other form of disability."

PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Saquon Barkley normally would have tossed his game-used cleats to the kid who asked for the pair as the star Philadelphia Eagles running back ran off the field and back to the locker room. Sorry, kid. Not today. Barkley kept his mucked-up cleats for good reason — he became the ninth running back in NFL history to top 2,000 yards rushing in a season, reaching the milestone with a 23-yard run in the fourth quarter of Sunday's 41-7 win over the Dallas Cowboys. That rush gave Barkley 2,005 yards with one game left and stuck him exactly 100 yards from Eric Dickerson's record of 2,105, set in 1984 for the Los Angeles Rams. Barkley left the game after the run that got him past 2,000, finishing with 167 yards on 31 carries. “We definitely knew what the number was to at least get 2,000,” Barkley said. “We weren't leaving this field without at least accomplishing that. That's not the words from me, that's the words from the guys up front.” Whether Dickerson likes it or not — and the Hall of Famer made clear last week he does not — Barkley is coming for the record next weekend against the New York Giants. Well, maybe. The Eagles have clinched the NFC East and least the No. 2 seed in the conference, making that game mostly meaningless. Coach Nick Sirianni could opt to rest Barkley to protect him from injury ahead of the playoffs. “Whatever his decision is, I'm all for it,” Barkley said. “If his mindset is, go out and try it, we'll go out and try it. If his mindset is, let's rest and get ready for this run, I'll all for it, too.” Sirianni simply said, “we'll see.” His backward hat askew, Barkley laughed when asked if he wanted to break the record in a delicious twist against his old team. “I'm not overly trying to go get it,” Barkley said. “I'm not scared to. I would love to. But at the end of the day, we've got bigger things we're focusing on.” Barkley gets a shot at the record thanks to a 17th game of the season that Dickerson and the NFL did not have in 1984. Derrick Henry was the last running back to exceed 2,000 yards. He had 2,027 for the Tennessee Titans in 2020. Minnesota running back Adrian Peterson ran for 2,097 yards in 2012, the second most in an NFL season. Barkley, who left the Giants to sign a three-year deal with the Eagles for $26 million guaranteed, also set the NFL mark Sunday for most yards rushing in a player's first season with a new team. He ran for 176 yards and a touchdown in his first career game against the Giants. “I didn't come here or sign here just to rush for 2,000 (yards) and break a record,” Barkley said. “I'm here to do something special.” Barkley was drafted out of Penn State with the No. 2 overall pick in 2018. He was an instant success with New York and ran for 1,307 yards his rookie season. Barkley ran for 5,211 yards and 35 touchdowns and had 288 receptions for 2,100 yards and 12 TDs in six years with the Giants. He hit free agency after the Giants elected not to put a franchise tag on him. “I was in the dark,” Barkley said. “You don't know what's going to happen, you don't know where you're going to be. Everything is kind of up in the air.” His mission is clear — win a Super Bowl and maybe take down Dickerson. Sporting his trademark goggles and Jheri curl, Dickerson had seven straight 1,000-yard seasons in the 1980s, and the Hall of Famer is widely considered one of the best running backs ever. Dickerson finished with 13,259 yards, the ninth most in NFL history. Emmitt Smith holds the career record with 18,355 yards. “I don’t think he’ll break it. But if he breaks it, he breaks it,” Dickerson told the Los Angeles Times . “Do I want him to break it? Absolutely not. I don’t pull no punches on that. But I’m not whining about it. He had 17 games to do it? Hey, football is football.” In 1984, Dickerson topped 100 yards rushing 12 times to break O.J. Simpson’s 1973 record of 2,003 yards rushing in a season. Simpson set his record in 14 games for the Buffalo Bills before the NFL expanded to 16 in 1978. The NFL moved to 17 games in 2021. “The way football is right now, it’s kind of hard to rush for 2,000 yards in 14 games,” Barkley said. "So, whether it’s 16, whether it’s 17, it’s a feat that you can never take away from what I was able to do with the O-line. And only eight other players did it, so it’s a special moment.” AP NFL: https://apnews.com/hub/nflNone
