Croatia, featuring in a World Cup semi-final only for the second time after a gap of 20 years, needed a goal from Mandzukic in the 109th minute from close range after left winger Ivan Perisic (68th minute) cancelled out Kieran Trippier’s goal for England in the fifth minute from a free-kick. England, bidding to enter the final for the first time since their World Cup-winning campaign in 1966, couldn’t cope up with a stirring comeback from an experienced Croatian side which conceded just inside five minutes. England expectedly fielded an unchanged lineup from the one which beat Colombia on penalties and defeated Sweden. England exerted early pressure as Luka Modric brought down Dele Alli

Tired of Dizziness or Imbalance? You are Not Alone! We Can Help You! Physical Therapy Solutions (PTS) is the region’s #1 specialist for vestibular and balance disorders and the only private practice in Chicagoland’s northwest suburbs utilizing NeuroCom’s NASA-based Smart Equi Test System. Rupangi Patel is the co-founder and CEO of Physical Therapy Solutions (PTS), located in a state-of-the-art facility near Schaumburg’s Woodfield Mall. "Our goal is to help people get back to their daily life as quickly as possible,” says Rupangi. She has been serving the northwest suburbs since 1990 and has worked with many of the leading area hospitals. Her passion for helping people led her to start her own clinic in 2005.
How does testing on the SMART Equi System evaluate my balance? Balance is a very complex interaction between the sensory system and brain. The Equi Test System helps us determine if there is a problem in the interaction between your sensory system – eyes, ears, sensation in your feet and joints – and the brain, which coordinates your movements. This equipment also allows us to compare your performance to that of other people your age who don’t have balance or vestibular issues. What does therapy consist of once my balance issues are determined? Our specialists set up a rehabilitation protocol for your functional limitation and quantify performance over time. This means better outcomes that carry over to daily living. The therapy consists of specific balance exercises, including head movements, changing surfaces,
Rupangi Patel is one of the few professionals in Illinois who specialize in the evaluation and treatment of vestibular disorders.
Vestibular problems can be debilitating and often go undiagnosed for a long time. If you suffer from dizziness or imbalance, we can help you! Our Integrated Balance Program is aimed at decreasing dizziness and loss of balance so you can fully participate in a vibrant and active lifestyle. changing visual environments, coordination challenges, stability and other exercises designed q to help your body habituate to a q challenged environment.
Utilizing the latest NASA-based technology and treatments, the PTS team is dedicated to providing the best care available to help your body regain health and well-being. At PTS we provide orthopedic, neurological and vestibular rehabilitation and have helped thousands of patients in the community. What is the SMART Equi Test System and how can it help me? The system was initially developed for NASA to evaluate how space flight affects balance control and inner ear function in astronauts. This equipment allows our rehab professionals to perform six tests that measure body movement and sway during different purposeful movements or when standing still.
How many treatments will q it take for me to see an improvement with my balance? Treatment requirements are determined with an evaluation q of your condition. Most of 4 our patients have seen a significant improvement in as little as one to two weeks.
Did You Know? Falling, fear of falling and lack of balance is not a result of age. Good balance is normal at any age.
Have you fallen in the past year? Do you take medications for two or more of the following: heart disease, hypertension, arthritis, anxiety or depression? Have you had a stroke or other neurological problem affecting your balance? Do you use a walker or wheelchair, or do you need assistance to get around? Do you experience a numbness or loss of sensation in your legs and/or feet? If you answered “YES” to one or more of these questions, you may have a balance problem.
You’re not alone! And We Can Help!

Trump targets Chinese products worth $200bn
The new 10 percent tariffs are in retaliation to Beijing’s response to the first set of taxes imposed by the US administration IANS, WASHINGTON
U
S President Donald Trump has escalated his trade war with China, saying he would impose additional 10 percent tariffs on $200 billion worth of Chinese fish, petroleum, chemicals, handbags, textiles and other products if Beijing does not change its trade practices. China this week expressed “shock” and solemn protest against Washington’s announcement of fresh tariffs, calling it “totally unacceptable”. Trade Representative Robert Lighthizer this week released a list of thousands of additional goods that could face tariffs after a
public comment period. The move comes just days after the two countries imposed tit-for-tat tariffs of $34 billion on each other’s goods. Washington said the new 10 percent tariffs are in retaliation to Beijing’s response to the first set of taxes imposed by the US administration, CNN reported. “The US has unveiled the list of tariffs in an escalating manner. This is totally unacceptable, and we express our solemn protest against this,” said China’s Commerce Ministry in a statement. It warned that China would have to respond with “necessary countermeasures”. “The action from the US is hurting China, hurting the whole world
and also hurting the US itself,” it was cited as saying by Xinhua news agency. “China is shocked by what the US did. To defend the core interests of the nation and the fundamental interests of the people, the Chinese government will, as always, be forced to take necessary countermeasures. “In the meantime, we appeal to the international community to jointly defend free trade rules and the multilateral trade regime and fight trade bullying,” the spokesperson said. China said it will “immediately lodge an additional complaint with the World Trade Organization over

the unilateral acts of the US”. The US is already working on a second wave of tariffs on Chinese goods worth $16 billion. The tariffs announced on Tuesday would be the third wave. They would go into effect after August 30. Washington’s latest action will hit more than 6,000 items that include consumer products like televisions,
clothing, bedsheets and air conditioners, which were spared from the first import levies. “Rather than address our legitimate concerns, China has begun to retaliate against US products,” Lighthizer said. “There is no justification for such action.” However, the US remains willing to engage in negotiations with China, he added.
Trump suggests NATO countries to double defense spending NATO summit focus on Afghan conflict on second day
IANS, WASHINGTON
U
S President Donald Trump suggested the NATO countries to increase their defense spending to 4 percent — doubling the 2 percent target that many members of the bloc were yet to meet. “During the President’s remarks today (July 11) at the NATO summit, he suggested that countries not only meet their commitment of 2 per cent of their GDP on defense spending, but that they increase it to 4 per cent,” CNN quoted White House press secretary Sarah Sanders as saying in a statement. She said Trump “raised this same
Trump denies US opposition to WHO’s resolution WASHINGTON: US President Donald Trump has defended US efforts to reportedly undermine a World Health Organization (WHO) measure in support of breastfeeding.

BRUSSELS: Leaders of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) on Thursday plan to move beyond US President Donald Trump’s demands for higher defense spending and focus on the conflict in Afghanistan on the second day of the meet here underscored by transatlantic tensions.
But according to NATO data, the US doesn’t even spend as much as Trump is calling on other coun-

tries to. Earlier on July 11, Trump said the US “in actual numbers”, is spending 4.2 percent of its GDP
on defense. However, according to numbers released by NATO on Tuesday, the US is expected to spend an estimated 3.5 percent of the GDP on defense in 2018 which is lower than last year’s number, at 3.57 percent. Trump has long complained that NATO members were not meeting their fiscal obligations to the alliance, reports CNN. “Many countries in NATO, which we are expected to defend, are not only short of their current commitment of 2 per cent (which is low), but are also delinquent for many years in payments that have not been made. Will they reimburse the US?” Trump tweeted on July 10.
Chicago mayor slams Trump’s immigration policy IANS, CHICAGO
T
he mayor of Chicago, the third biggest city in the US, has criticized President Donald Trump’s controversial immigration policy as “cruel, unnecessary and unlawful”. Mayor Rahm Emanuel welcomed the decision by a federal judge in California this week, which denies the Trump administration’s efforts to amend related regulations in order to engage in long-term detention of migrant children. “President Trump’s family detention policy is cruel, unnecessary and unlawful,” said the mayor in a statement on July 10, Xinhua news agency reported.

“This ruling is a step back for President Trump’s reactionary policies, and a step forward for decen-
cy and justice.” Meanwhile, a federal judge in Chicago ordered this week two Brazilian boys reunited
with their fathers within 72 hours following more than six weeks of separation. The US media quoted the judge as saying that the ongoing harm to two Brazilian boys held in Chicago is “obvious and intense”. The judge added that Justice Department lawyers have failed to explain “what objective it is trying to accomplish by keeping the boys separated from their fathers.” The Trump administration’s “zero tolerance” policy against undocumented immigrants, especially the way to detain parents and place children in governmentcontracted shelters separately, has led to increasing furore among the society.

Destined to be perpetual No.2? After many switches in his political journey, there is a speculation that Bihar chief minister Nitish Kumar may return to the ‘Mahagathbandhan’ again AMULYA GANGULI, NEW DELHI
T
he aphorism “know thyself” was explained by Greek philosopher Socrates as a phrase which referred to an “unexamined life”. The renewed rumors about Nitish Kumar’s future plans provoke queries as to whether the Bihar Chief Minister has closely examined his life in politics. So far, his political journeys have seen him move from the company of his friend Laloo Prasad Yadav during the days of Jayaprakash Narayan’s anti-Congress agitation to Atal Behari Vajpayee’s government at the Centre and an alliance with the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) in Bihar, to Laloo Prasad Yadav again as a part of an anti-BJP Mahagathbandhan (Grand Alliance) in Bihar and then back to the BJP. After these switches, there is speculation that he may return to the Mahagathbandhan again. The reason for the latest conjecture, that has dwelt on the possibility of an electoral contest between Narendra Modi and Nitish Kumar in Varanasi in 2019, is the latter’s reported unhappiness over the way he has been treated by the Modi dispensation during his latest tenure as the Chief Minister. A sign of this displeasure was Nitish Kumar’s refusal to have any-

thing to do with the International Yoga Day, which the BJP likes to observe with great fanfare. Further, the Chief Minister has been sending out signals that he will call the shots in Bihar in the matter of seat-sharing with the BJP in 2019. Since he cannot expect Big Brother to accept this proposition lying down, he is obviously spoiling for a fight. A recent phone call by Nitish Kumar to Laloo Prasad Yadav to inquire about his health has added grist to the rumor mills despite the
categorical refusal by Yadav’s son, Tejashwi, to allow Nitish chacha (uncle) to return to the alliance with the Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) and the Congress. There are contrary views apart from such gossip which assert that the BJP’s currently somewhat weakened position after several byelection defeats has encouraged the previously embattled Nitish Kumar to assert himself in order to secure a better bargaining position. Against the backdrop of the
Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh’s reported advise to the BJP to be more accommodative towards its allies (which made Amit Shah have a closed door meeting with the Shiv Sena’s Uddhav Thackeray while Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis waited outside), Nitish Kumar has probably decided that the time has come for him to flex his muscles. At the same time, he may not be averse to playing both sides since sections in the Congress are said to
be not unwilling to let him return to the “secular” fold. Whatever the outcome of these calculations, it is undeniable that Nitish Kumar has done his reputation considerable harm by being the subject matter of such guesswork. There is hardly any other example of a generally well-respected political leader being associated with what only be described as floor-crossing on so many occasions. Opportunism may be too harsh a word for a senior leader like Nitish Kumar, but what is obvious is that, first, he does not find it easy to choose the right ally and, secondly, that having chosen one, his hopes about how he should be treated fall short of his expectations. This happened in the days of the Mahagathbandhan in Bihar after its trouncing of the BJP in 2015 and has happened again after he joined the BJP two years later. On both occasions, he apparently felt that being the Chief Minister was not enough, for he was not being treated with adequate respect. Kumar’s disadvantage is his notso-strong support base. Being a Kurmi — constituting four percent of Bihar’s population, he was unable to match the social and political clout of the Yadavs, who make up 14.4 percent, the largest percentage of all the castes in the state, when he was in the Mahagathbandhan.

or centuries, their creations have been used in sombre processions to commemorate and reconstruct the narrative of the seventh century Battle of Karbala in Islamic history. But now, these artists, mostly Shia Muslims, make Hindu wedding mandaps, replicating the design of the shrine of Prophet’s grandson Imam Hussain Ali, who was killed in that war. Many couples in the country have exchanged wedding vows under these mandaps, representing the replicas of the complex, housing one of the oldest mosques in the world and a holy site of Shia Muslims in the Iraqi city of Karbala. These replicas, also called tazia, which otherwise Shia mourners use during their annual Muharram processions, are also used for decorating venues of birthday parties. The art of tazia making arrived in
India from Central Asia and is said to have flourished during Mughal rule. One of these artisans, Mohammad Bilal Azhimuddin, speaking to IANS, said they were in Mumbai recently to design a Hindu

What clients love is the exquisite adorned minarets which have won millions of hearts and are making waves across the nation,” he said. Many art connoisseurs have also
decorated their residences, offices, theme parties and corporate events with tazia-inspired minarets and lamps, he added. Basically, these artisans make tazias during Muharram processions. As this symbolizes sorrow to their community, they never charge any price for it. “It is a service to God,” says Mohammad Bilal Azhimuddin, who learnt this craft from his father. Fortune of these artisans changed when Geetanjali Kaswaliwala, a leading Indian designer and owner of Anantaya (known for showcasing Unesco award-winning luxury cutting-edge objects), watched a tazia procession for the first time in Jaipur. She was moved by its attractive presence and thought of using tazia-inspired designs during the Jaipur Virasat Heritage Festival 2007 which further created opportunities for these artisans. Since then, they have been prospering.

The coach was one of the last to be extricated from the cave on Tuesday in the rescue operation that began as a local search for the missing but turned into a complex mission, involving hundreds of experts who flew in from around the world to help, CNN reported. “The 12 Wild Boars (name of their football club) and coach have emerged from the cave and they are safe,” the Thai Navy Seal unit said on its official Facebook page. It added: “Hooyah.” The final day of the operation began just after 10 a.m. on Tuesday as the first eight boys, freed in operations on Sunday and Monday, recuperated at a hospital in nearest Chiang Rai city.

Sharif, Maryam face arrest on arrival ISLAMABAD: Former Pakistan Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif and his daughter Maryam Nawaz, who were sentenced to prison in the Avenfield properties case last week, have been placed on the Exit Control List (ECL), the media reported on Tuesday. The father-daughter duo, currently in London with Sharif’s ailing wife Kulsoom Nawaz, is expected to return to Pakistan on Friday. The National Accountability Bureau had written three letters to the ministry in February, June and July requesting that Sharif and Maryam be put on ECL. The names of the ousted Prime Minister and his daughter have been put on ECL following their conviction in the Avenfield reference, sources told Geo News. While they will not face any difficulty in coming to Pakistan, they are expected to be arrested during the immigration process at the airport as per standard procedure for all those placed on ECL. After their arrival in Lahore, sources said the two are expected to be directly moved to Adiala prison in Rawalpindi. Sharif was on Friday sentenced to 10 years in prison while his daughter Maryam Nawaz was handed a seven-year jail over graft charges in the purchase of overseas properties. —IANS

The boys were found inside the cave by British rescue divers a week ago, about 4 km from the cave mouth. Thirteen foreign cave diving experts and five Thai Navy rescuers
joined the first operation on Sunday that brought out four boys from the cave. Rescuers spent about 11 hours on the mission. Another four boys were brought out by the same team on Monday. The remaining four boys and their coach were rescued on Tuesday and were sent to hospital by helicopters. They underwent Xrays and blood tests and will remain under observation in the hospital for at least seven days.
BANGKOK: A cave complex in northern Thailand where 12 boys and their football coach were trapped for more than two weeks is set to be turned into a museum, a media report said on Thursday. Rescue officials said the museum would showcase how the operation unfolded in the Tham Luang cave, adding that it would be a “major attraction” for Thailand, reports the BBC. At least two companies are also looking to make a film telling the story of the rescue. The rescued group are all now recovering in hospital.
The news was greeted by global jubilation and the rescue workers were lauded.

In May, former US Navy veteran Adam Purinton admitted that he fatally shot Kuchibhotla saying that he targeted the victim because of his “actual and perceived race, color, religion and national origin”.
Minister brings relief for Indian mother IANS, NEW DELHI
T
he intervention of External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj led to police clearance certificate (PCC) being issued to an Indian mother in Canada in less than two hours after the Minister told the Regional Passport Office, Delhi that “status quo is not the answer”. The Minister responded to a tweet by the RPO Delhi that said “Status quo” last week when the woman demanded to know about the progress of her request made in February 2018. She had requested for PCC for her one-year-old daughter currently in India. With the “Status quo” tweet, the RPO Delhi indicated that the PCC was under process, which was its reply on July 1. “Status quo is not the answer. We must end this status quo. Pls do the needful and help her,” Sushma Swaraj said in a clear message to RPO Delhi. The Minister’s stern reply got the RPO moving and in less than two hours it tweeted: “Clearance has been sent to CGI Vancouver.” To which, Sushma Swaraj added: “Poonam ji - This is done. You should be happy now.” The woman, who identifies herself as Poonam with Twitter handle @PoonamCH5, on May 15 had tweeted: “Applied PCC from Canada office to Delhi passport office. It’s been three months now and
haven’t got anything yet. Called numerous times at the office and gets no response. Need it urgently for my CIC purpose.” Poonam had repeatedly reminded the RPO Delhi with little success. Once she wrote that it was humiliating and embarrassing for not getting a simple certificate, in another tweet she wrote it may never be done until Sushma Swaraj steps in. “@SushmaSwaraj @cgivancouver @rpodelhi please look into PCC status as my daughter’s visa is expiring soon and I have to bring her here in Canada. Been more than 3 months and still no response. Help a mother to reunite with her little one. Thanks,” Poonam tweeted on June 1. The Minister also stepped in to

30,000 wives abandoned by NRIs still suffer CHANDIGARH: The Punjab State Women’s Commission said over 30,000 legal cases pertaining to Non-Resident Indians (NRIs) from the state abandoning their wives are pending for disposal and urged the Centre to enact deterrent laws to curb the menace. Commission Chairperson Manisha Gulati met Union External affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj in New Delhi and raised the issue of the plight of such women who had “suffered due to betrayals and exploitation by NRI grooms”.
Gulati said the Minister assured her of necessary action. “More than 30,000 legal cases are pending in Punjab alone, in which NRIs presumably abandoned their wives. These exploited women need help immediately. “If the preliminary inquiry in India reveals that the NRI concerned is within the ambit of conviction, then his extradition process be initiated immediately and his passport confiscated till he compensates his aggrieved wife. “This bold decision will help save
many lives in India, particularly in Punjab, and alert other NRIs who want to twist the law for their vested interest without fearing for its consequences,” Gulati said. Punjab has tens of thousands of NRIs settled in other countries, especially in the United States, United Kingdom, Canada and Australia. “The present and previous governments passed laws to protect women from exploitation by NRI grooms but somehow this exploitation hasn’t been curtailed,” the commission chief pointed out. —IANS

One Kerala priest accused of sexual assault apprehended
Father Job Mathew was taken into custody while he was on his way to a court. The remaining two, Father Sony Varghese and Father Jaice K. George, are on the run IANS, KOCHI
O
ne of the four accused Kerala priests, Father Job Mathew involved in the sexual abuse of a parishoner has been arrested, said police this week. The accused priest, however, denied that he has been arrested. He said he has surrendered. Mathew was taken into custody while he was on his way to a court. He was taken to the Kollam district police chief’s office, where he was being interrogated. The arrest of the accused Malankara Orthodox Church priests became a certainty after the High Court in Kochi rejected the anticipatory bail plea of three of them named in the complaint.

The remaining two, Father Sony Varghese and Father Jaice K. George, are currently on the run, a police officer said. A woman who regularly visited the Malankara Orthodox Church

had accused five priests of sexually abusing her for a decade. Her husband had complained that she came under the duress from at least five priests. It was one priest in the begin-
ning who first exploited his wife and then started blackmailing her. When she sought help from another priest, he too threatened her and shared her contact with a fellow priest and she was eventually victimized by five of them. After pressure mounted on the police following the National Commission for Women monitoring the case, the four priests were charged with sexual assault. One of the priests escaped action as the victim had mentioned only four names, the police officer said. The court last week also refused any relief to the accused, who had sought a direction that police should not arrest them till their bail petition was heard. The Kottayam-headquartered church has gone into a limbo since the allegations have surfaced.

K’taka farmers want ‘BJP will give TN corruption-free govt’ full crop loan waiver IANS, CHENNAI
BENGALURU: Thousands of farmers across Karnataka this week protested against Chief Minister H.D. Kumaraswamy for not waiving crop loans fully as promised by him before the May 12 assembly elections. “Kumaraswamy promised to waive all our loans within 48 hours of coming to power. He came to power with Congress support but failed to keep the promise. He should waive all loans, including those from state-run banks,” state farmers’ association president K. Chandrashekar told reporters. Though Kumaraswamy on July 5 announced waiver of farm loans worth Rs 340 billion in the state budget for fiscal 2018-19, it is not full as it does not cover loans granted by banks owned by the Central government, he said. “As per our estimates, the total amount of crop loan raised by farmers from across the state is about Rs 1.26 trillion, including interest over the years. Of the Rs 340 billion loans waived, the actual waiver is Rs 180 billion excluding interest,” said Chandrashekar. Kumaraswamy’s loan waiver comes a year after his Congress predecessor Siddaramaiah waived farm loans worth of Rs 81.67 billion, including interest, benefitting 2.2 million distressed farmers across the state. “Whatever be the compulsion, the Chief Minister should have fulfilled his promise to the farmers as

France edged past Belgium 1-0 to book their place in the final of the FIFA World Cup in a rip-roaring semi-final clash. Croatia, featuring in a World Cup semi-final only for the second time after a gap of 20 years, needed a goal from Mandzukic in the 109th minute from close range after left winger Ivan Perisic (68th minute) cancelled out Kieran Trippier’s goal for England in the fifth minute from a free-kick.

blended fresh-fruit smoothies and juices in over 170 combinations. The smoothies are available in different categories like avocado, veggie, protein smoothies, meal smoothies, detox, and also smoothies to cure hangovers.
All the fresh fruit smoothies and shakes are 100 per cent natural, made from local produce and do not contain any artificial flavors, preservatives or even ice, claims Reddy, whose passion for the smoothie business comes from his
habit of staying away from caffeine since his student days. Reddy, who holds an engineering degree and an MBA, always wondered when there are hundreds of foods, why is there only coffee, tea, Coke or Pepsi when it comes to beverages? “Fruits have been the first food of human beings. History shows that eating fruits was the habit of people in all dynasties. However, during last 20 years things have changed. People don’t have time to make fruit juice or even consume cut fruits at home,” Reddy, pointed out. After his return to India in 2008, he did more research. He wanted to set up smoothie outlets but decided against it. “I didn’t want to start one or two outlets and fade away. I wanted to gain more experience.”

The Sonu Ke Titu Ki Sweety actor says one feature that every phone should have is a “a long lasting battery” as it’s the “bare and biggest necessity”.

‘Soorma really close to my heart’
F
or actress Chitrangda Singh, who has turned producer with Soorma, the forthcoming film on former Indian hockey team’s captain Sandeep Singh’s life, is really close to her heart. Chitrangda told the media: “It is based on real incidents and in a way, we are acknowledging real life hero Sandeep Singh. We always look upon aspirational value of heroes which we see on-screen, which is fictional and created by writers and filmmakers. But Sandeep Singh led a very dramatic life. “He got injured by a bullet. Despite that, he became captain of the Indian hockey team, so it’s really an inspirational story and it inspired me a lot. It is really close to my heart. We have made this film with a lot of effort and heart. We took around two and a half years to release the film, and so I hope the audience will appreciate it once it is released.”

Referring to the victim, a 22-year-old physiotherapy intern, Mallika wrote: “She had worked hard to free herself from the shackles of the rules that society often slots for its women. Her parents supported her every step of the way. But those who violated her questioned her morals, questioned her right to be out at night.

Inaugurating the new facility spread over 129,000 sq meters at Sector 81, Modi said Samsung will export 30 percent of the handsets made at the Noida factory to other markets. “India is currently second in terms of phone manufacturing. Out of 120 mobile factories, 50 are in Noida only. Altogether, over 400,000 people are working in those units and Samsung is leading this with a workforce of 70,000 people. “The new facility will give direct jobs to 1,000 people, taking the existing workforce at this plant to
IN BRIEF Twitter users to see drop in followers NEW DELHI: In a bid to encourage healthy conversation and fight fake accounts on Twitter, the micro-blogging website this week announced to remove locked accounts — which are disabled owing to suspicious activity — from follower counts across profiles globally. It will result in some high-profile users seeing a big drop in their base of followers. “Follower counts are a visible feature, and Twitter aims for everyone to have confidence that the numbers are meaningful and accurate,” the company said. Earlier, Twitter has locked accounts after detecting sudden changes in account behavior.
WhatsApp rolls out ‘Forwarded’ label NEW DELHI: Taking cognizance of the misuse of its platform for repeated circulation of provocative content, Facebook-owned WhatsApp this week rolled out “Forwarded” label to its 1.5 million monthly active users globally, including over 200 millions in India. The feature will indicate which messages you receive have been forwarded to you in the group or individually.

The inauguration ceremony was also attended by Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath and senior Samsung officials, including Vice Chairman Jay Y. Lee. President Moon Jae-in said the new facility will create a new era for India-Korea ties. “I am happy to see Korean companies participating in India’s digital transformation and I have full support for them,” said the South Korean President. Adityanath also invited more South Korean firms to come and invest in the state. “This is a great milestone in the history of Samsung India which will take our country’s manufacturing abilities to newer heights,” Asim Warsi, Global Vice President, Samsung India, told IANS.
Data leak: FB faces $660,000 fine in UK IANS, LONDON
U
K’s data protection watchdog plans to fine 500,000 pounds ($662,501) on Facebook over the Cambridge Analytica data leak scandal. This is the highest permitted fine under Britain’s data protection law. In its investigation, the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) found that Facebook broke British law by failing to safeguard people’s information, and by not revealing how people’s data was harvested.
Along with Cambridge Analytica, Facebook has been the focus of the investigation since February when evidence emerged that an app had been used to harvest the data of an estimated 87 million Facebook users across the world. In its latest progress report, the regulator also said it intended to take criminal action against Cambridge Analytica’s defunct parent company SCL Elections, the BBC reported earlier this week.

M
en, please take note. If you are suffering from diabetes, you may be at a higher risk of erectile dysfunction (ED), a new study suggests. According to the doctors, from the Sir Ganga Ram Hospital, ED, or the condition due to which there is incompetence to accomplish and sustain erection needed to have satisfactory sexual intercourse, in men, is commonly seen complication in Type 2 diabetes mellitus. “ED has high prevalence in diabetics and occurs in early ages of diabetic population as compared to non-diabetics,” said co-author Atul Kakar, Vice-Chairperson, Department of Medicine.
Solid foods help babies sleep well IANS, LONDON
I LONDON: Scientists may now identify people at high risk of developing leukemia almost five years before the patient develops the cancer using a blood test to track some changes in the DNA code, which may reveal the roots of the disease among healthy people. The findings showed that people who were en route to developing acute myeloid leukemia (AML) — blood cancer that affects the bone marrow and stops the production of normal blood cells — had a higher number of mutations in genes associated with the disease. “Acute myeloid leukemia often appears very suddenly in patients, so we were surprised to discover that its origins are generally detectable more than five years before the disease develops,” said joint first author Grace Collord from Wellcome Sanger Institute in Britain. For the study, published in the journal Nature, the team sequenced, stored blood DNA from 124 AML patients and compared it to that from 676 people who did not have AML or any related cancer. The results showed that those who developed the cancer, had particular genetic changes that set them apart from others. These changes could be used to develop a predictive test for AML risk. — IANS

nfants introduced to solid foods early may have lesser sleep problems as compared to those who are breastfed, a new study has found. The researchers found that babies introduced to solid foods early slept longer and woke less frequently at night and suffered fewer serious sleep problems than those exclusively breastfed for around the first six months of life. “While the official guidance is that starting solid foods won’t make babies more likely to sleep through the night, this study suggests that the advice needs to be reexamined in light of the evidence we have gathered,” said lead author
Gideon Lack, from King’s College London. For the study published in the journal JAMA Pediatrics, the researchers involved 1,303 exclusively breastfed three-month-olds who were divided into two groups.
One group followed standard infant feeding advice and was encouraged to exclusively breastfeed for around six months. The second group, while continuing to breastfeed, was asked to introduce solid foods. Parents completed online questionnaires every month until their baby was 12 months and then every three months up to three years of age. The questionnaires recorded the frequency of food consumption and included questions about breastfeeding frequency and duration, besides sleep duration. Differences between the two groups peaked at six months, with the early introduction group sleeping for a quarter of an hour (16.6 minutes) longer per night.
Novel bandage may treat chronic wounds NEW YORK: Researchers have developed a prototype bandage designed to actively monitor the condition of chronic wounds and deliver appropriate drug treatments to improve the chances of healing. The study, published in the journal Small, aimed to transform bandaging from a traditionally passive treatment into a more active paradigm to address a persistent and difficult medical challenge. “We have been able to take a new approach to bandages because of the emergence of flexible electronics,” said Sameer Sonkusale from Tufts University, US.
Have soup before meal for healthy eating, weight loss IANS, NEW YORK
I
f you are planning to cut down on foods rich in saturated fats such as butter, cream, cheese, and meat, drinking soup rich in umami — savory taste — before meal may help. Scientists have found that soup causes changes in the brain that promote healthy eating behaviors and food choices, especially in those at risk of obesity. Umami is a Japanese word to express a delicious, savory meal, and it represents one of the five basic tastes, together with sweet, salty, bitter and sour. A key component of umami taste is glutamate, a naturally

occurring non-essential amino acid that can be found in nearly all foods, and especially in foods high in protein such as dairy products, fish, and meat.
“Many cultures around the world advocate drinking a broth before a meal. Our study suggests the possibility that people at high risk of obesity could benefit from
an umami-rich broth before a meal to facilitate healthy eating and healthy food choice,” said senior author Miguel Alonso-Alonso, from Center for the Study of Nutrition Medicine in Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center (BIDMC). After consuming the umamirich broth, those at higher risk of obesity consumed less saturated fat during the meal, the findings showed. The results, published in the journal Neuropsychopharmacology, also showed that people drinking the umami-rich broth before meal demonstrated improved self-regulation of eating and more focused gazes during the meal.

Bhandaris’ mite for new Ekal initiative
Amit & Arpita Bhandari with Lok Sabha Speaker Sumitra Mahajan
BY A STAFF WRITER OUSTON , TX - Houston-based entrepreneur Amit Bhandari and his wife Arpita not only shaped their own American dream but, along the way, they also nurtured the aspirations of thousands of children, whether in the remote village of Rampura or the slums of Mumbai. Ekal was one of the first charities the Bhandaris supported and they have consistently raised this support. They recently topped it by donating $50,000 to outfit a bus with 10 laptops for the Ekal-on-Wheels Mobile Computer Labs program. The Mobile Computer Labs initiative is working to enhance digital literacy and has helped over 50,000 children become computerliterate. The solar-powered bus has pre-installed self-learning software developed by IIT, Mumbai and accommodates two students per computer. Bhandaris have also supported the Jain Society of Houston, donated six acres of land for the Gujarati Samaj center in Houston, written a quarter-million dollar check to Houston Mayor Sylvester Turner’s Fund for Hurricane Harvey relief work, paid off the loans of a temple in Phoenix and raised $3 million for Magic Bus, an NGO that is deeply personal to them and aims to bring children out of poverty through a unique sports- based curriculum. Amit’s entrepreneurial leanings kicked in as early as middle school when he and a friend made paper bags and sold them to local vendors. At 17, he was accepted in the Rotary Student Exchange Program and attended High School in Hicksville, Ohio. America turned out to be “a tremendous experience” so much so that he got his aunt to sponsor his green card.

BY A STAFF WRITER HICAGO, IL -- A digital billboard placed on a main highway in Chicago flashes a message about the World Hindu Congress (WHC) every 40 seconds and has been seen, at last count, by 1.5 million drivers. The windy city will play host to the WHC and welcome icons, thought influencers, prominent leaders and members of the Hindu community during September 7-9. They will gather to connect, discuss, energize and push awareness about critical issues facing Hindus worldwide and figure ways on how the community can be globally significant and impactful. The event is being hosted at Hotel Westin in Lombard, Illinois. Over 2000 Hindus from across the globe and 250 thought leaders are expected to fly in to attend the gathering. They include heads of countries with a sizable Hindu population, top-tier corporate heads from both India and the US, dynamic Hindu leaders and media personalities. Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) chief Mohan Bhagwat is one of the key speakers.
C
Tibetan leader Dalai Lama, Art of Living guru Sri Sri Ravi Shankar, Chinmaya Mission Head, Swami Swaroopananda, Swami Brahmavihari Das, head of international relations from BAPS, Swami Purnatmananda from Bharat Sevashram Sangh and Pranav Pandya from Gayatri Parivar will also be present at the event dubbed as “the biggest Hindu gathering of leaders to date.” The conference is being organized by the World Hindu Foundation headed by IIT, Kharagpur graduate Swami Vigyananand. It will commemorate 125 years of Swami Vivekananda’s historic Chicago address on September 11, 1893. This is the second such conference, the first was held in New Delhi in 2014. The theme of WHC 2018 is “Sumantrite Suvikrante”--think collectively, achieve valiantly. With over 3.23 million Hindus in the US and a little over one billion worldwide, making Hindus count globally is a key issue. Senior leaders of the organization elaborated on the significance of the conference. According to WHC founder Swami Vigyananand, wealth creation, quality education,
a robust Hindu presence in mass media, Hindu leadership, unique strengths of Hindu women and Hindu organizations must be encouraged to “graduate to collective success.” This, he said, is the only way to increase our sphere of influence and have a positive societal impact. Convener Dr. Abhaya Asthana highlighted the importance of “boosting the profile of Hindus” on the world stage. Hindus, he emphasized, need to come together collectively and establish their presence, and only then can they wield their clout to make a positive difference. The goal of WHC, Chair S.P. Kothari said, is to “make the world understand the Hindu way and view of life not just at the spiritual and social level but also at the economic and educational level”. WHC Vice Chair Raju Reddy reflected that “Hindus are viewed as great doctors, engineers and entrepreneurs, as positive role models but they need to become change makers. This requires them to be organized.” Leaders of the organization are confident that this will be “historic and a not to be missed gathering of Hindus from all over the world.”

built around moksha, said to be life’s greatest pursuit that generates unwavering happiness to be experienced here and now. Speeches and presentations were given by senior swamis from India, including Sadguru Pujya Ishwarcharandas Swami and Pujya Anandswarupdas Swami, as well as many others from across North America. The conversation centred on ‘Moksha Now’, and delegates learned what it means to achieve moksha and how one should allow themselves to enjoy the world, especially when every task and activity undertaken focuses on
keeping God and the Guru in mind. The comprehensive concept of moksha was taught by explaining the efforts and context of dharma (roles and responsibilities), artha (worldly pursuits) and kaam (desires). Living life with the goal to attain moksha leads to an elevated experience of daily interactions and an unfailingly optimistic perspective of life and the world around us. “It’s a lived experience that we’ve all shared together, and the sheer effort, the teamwork, and the goodwill; you can’t help but just get wrapped up into that. To
be part of that, I really am honored and proud,” Vivek Sharma, CEO and founder of Generation Live, said in a press release. The concept of moksha can seem irrelevant to youths, given the notion of invincibility associated with being young. However, the idea was presented throughout the convention in a practical and contemporary manner wherein the programming focused on the importance of purpose, sincere effort, perseverance, prayer and introspection as core components of character.

FRIDAY,13 JULY, 2018
25th anniv of Jain shrine celebrated BY AJAY AGNIHOTRI ARTLETT, IL -- The Jain Society of Metropolitan Chicago (JSMC), Bartlett, Illinois, celebrated a milestone–the 25th anniversary of its temple, with great enthusiasm, color and pride, from June 22 to July 1. About 4000 people from the US and outside witnessed this 10-day historical celebration. This is the first Jain temple in North America with “Shikhar” or dome to complete 25 years. Several dignitaries, speakers, and faith leaders from the US and India graced the occasion. The event was attended by political dignitaries, including Illinois State Governor Bruce Rauner, Consul General of India Neeta Bhushan, US Congressman Raja Krishnamoorthi and Peter Roskam, State representatives Christine Winger and Laura Murphy, State senator Tom Cullerton and Bartlett Village trustees. Numerous scholars and dignitaries from India, including Muni Shri Jinchandraji, Acharya Dr. Lokesh Muniji, Swami Shrutpragyaji, Charukeerti Bhattarakji, Gurudev Rakesh Zaveri, Dipak Bardoliwala, Sanjeev Godha, Pramoda Chitrabhanu and Tarla Doshi delivered thought-provoking spiritual discourses to an eager audience. Keynote speeches on important topics were delivered by Padmashri Kumarpal Desai, Dr. Dipak Jain, Rahul Kapoor and Sajan Shah. Vidhikar Hitesh, Narendra Nandu, Lalit Dhami, Megh Nandu and Veer Sainik Jinay performed unique poojans and rituals for the first time in the US. Singers Ashish Mehta and Vicky Parekh enthralled the audiences with beautiful musical scores. JSMC’s home musical production Nem Rajul and Karmic Forces received an overwhelming response as much as the professional productions Sheth Motisha and Veer na Varasdaar played by Rangat Productions of Mumbai. Many activities for the youth like sports day, field day as well as youth-focused seminars and shibirs kept the youth engaged. Amazing work was done in creating replicas of sacred places of worship Ashtapad and Giriraj Shatrunjay. One of the highlights of the celebration was a 1.5-mile procession starting at Bartlett’s Eastview Middle School and ending at the Jain temple. The Sanghpatis of the 25th Anniversary Celebrations (Jayendra and Leena Shah, Kishor and Rashmi Shah, Prabodh and Lata Vaidya, Sanjay and Hemali Shah and Dr. Shailesh and Mayuri Zaveri) and other sponsor families walked with 12 superbly-decorated floats, Bhaghwan Palkhi and Rath, live religious music and dance, motorcycles and horse carriage. The parade had participation from more than 1000 members. The parade ended with a ceremonial flower shower from a helicopter. JSMC also created history by inaugurating the first memorial (Jeevant Smarak) of Gurudev Chitrabhanu who is credited to have strengthened Jainism and united Jains in the US in the last 40 years. Gurudev’s bust was sponsored by Ravindra and Pallavi Kobawala and Satish and Kinna Shah. Since 1970s, Jain population in Chicago has exploded from less than thirty families to over 1900 families. With the mission of preserving and sharing the Jain way of life, the community built a beautiful temple & community center in 1993 in Bartlett, IL on a 14-acre lot. Today, this monumental temple and center stand on a 17.5-acre land
B
with expanded facilities of 84,000 sq. ft. President of JSMC executive committee Vipul Shah was ecstatic and mentioned that, “In this milestone year for all Jains around Chicago and indeed all of US, we have delivered a great experience to all our dignitaries, guests and members blending religion, education, culture and entertainment. “All our programs have been received with tremendous enthusiasm”. chairman and board of trustees of JSMC, Atul Shah, added, “Our unity, dedicated volunteers, generous donors and all other supporters have helped us to set a very high bar”. Every day during the celebration, JSMC provided 3 sumptuous meals to all attendees and visitors. Many guests from Chicago and outside were thrilled with the overall execution and planning by the dedicated team of volunteers, executive committee members and board of trustees. PR & media co-leads Hemant Shah (past chairman) and Dr. Mukesh Doshi (past chairman) also explained, “We are building on a very successful legacy of 48 years of JSMC.” Chicago has remarkable history of the first Jain who landed 125 years ago–when Shri Virchand Raghavji Gandhi pioneered Jainism in western world and represented Jains in first parliament of World religious conference held in Chicago in 1893. Since 1970, this society—a symbol of unity and harmony among all Jains--is standing on contributions of generous donors, dedicated volunteers and passionate leadership of visionaries.

Pramila Jayapal held again for protest BY A STAFF WRITER ASHINGTON, DC – IndianAmerican Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal was arrested along with 575 other women during a protest staged here against US President Donald Trump’s border and immigration policy. Jayapal said she was asked to speak at the demonstration called by women at the Hart Senate Office Building. The civil disobedience was a reaction to the Trump administration’s crackdown at the US-Mexico border, including separation of thousands of children from their parents in recent months. “I decided that I, too, would sit down with them and submit to arrest,” Jayapal said. The women were arrested and charged with unlawfully demonstrating in the Senate office atrium, said Eva Malecki, a spokeswoman for the US Capitol Police. Jayapal was issued a $50 fine for “crowding, obstructing, or incommoding”. It was her third arrest at a protest, the other two occurring years before her 2016 election to Congress.

who founded OneAmerica before running for elected office, Jayapal said she has been outraged and unable to sleep over Trump’s “zero tolerance” prosecutions of people crossing the US-Mexico border. The Trump Administration launched the so-called “zero tolerance” policy in April, which considers illegal border crossing as a criminal offence, meaning that immigrant
minors will be separated from their families. Last week, Trump penned an executive order to end family separations at the border due to harsh criticism. Since then, the US government has reunited 538 children with their relatives, but more than 2,000 minors still remain separated, according to data from the Department of Homeland Security.
Clean chit for Indian in call center scam BY A STAFF WRITER RVING, TX -- The Indian American owner of an IT company in Texas, Narashima Bhogavalli, who had previously been among dozens of individuals charged in an international call center scamming operation based in India, has been cleared of all charges. Bhogavalli has had all charges against him dropped by the US government, his attorneys, the Kendall Law Group, announced. He had pled “not guilty” to the allegations. The US Justice Department had announced the charges against 61 people in connection with the operation in October 2016. Among the defendants were 32 people in India as well as Indian Americans, including Bhogavalli, Sunny Joshi, Rajesh Bhatt and Nilesh Pandya in Texas. Many of those indicted worked out of a network of call centers in Ahmedabad, India. After a presentation by his defense lawyers to the prosecutors and the FBI, United States District Judge Sam Lindsay signed a court order dismissing the

BY A STAFF WRITER OS ANGELES, CA – The Asian Americans Advancing JusticeLA (AAAJ-LA) launched a new Hindi helpline on June 22 to help Indian Americans gain greater access to the organization’s expertise for immigration and naturalization issues. The new Hindi helpline will be helmed by Farhana Shahid, who has worked with the South Asian American community for over 14 years. She has worked with the South Asian Helpline and Referral Agency, and also with the South Asian Network. AAAJ-LA’s new Hindi helpline will also help callers connect to services offered by both those organizations, as well as Chhaya CDC in New York; South Asian American Voices for Impact in Detroit, Michigan; Asian Americans Advancing Justice – Atlanta; and the International Institute of Minnesota in St. Paul, which also serves South Asian Americans. The helpline is funded by the Democracy Fund. Urdu speakers will also be able to access services through the helpline. The helpline is generally staffed from 10 am to 3 pm, Monday through Friday. AAAJ-LA’s helplines—available also in Mandarin, Cantonese, Khmer, Korean, Tagalog, Thai, Vietnamese and English— also help low-income community members in the areas of domestic violence, family law and employment issues. As Hindi speakers call the toll free number — 855-971-2552 — Shahid will port the call to an AAAJ-LA attorney who can provide language-specific services, or to a partner agency. Shahid will follow up to see whether the caller’s needs have been met.

The Kansas City police has released surveillance video from inside the restaurant of the Sharath Koppu suspected shooter. Koppu arrived in the US from Hyderabad, where he was a software engineer. Last year, another Hyderabad techie, Srinivas Kuchibotla, was shot dead in a bar near Kansas City in a suspected hate crime.
