Trump Among World's Richest 500 Thanks to Truth Social | Vantage with Palki Sharma

Hello Namaskar, this is the first post and you are watching with me py Sharma India is in election mode but the focus today was the Delhi High Court, it was hearing the case of Chief Minister Arin Krial, the media has been following the developments just like they have done. have been India's western partners in less than a week Germany and the US have given unsolicited advice and India has told them both to mind their own business tonight we will tell you everything meanwhile in the US USA Donald Trump is a billionaire and broke what it means we will explain what the latest unemployment data says about India and its youth what the Dutch prime minister is doing in China why Saudi Arabia's entry into the Miss Universe pageant is not really a sign of women empowerment in the Kingdom's security pact by the Talu Pacific Nation with Australia is a big deal what the presidents of France and Brazil are doing in the Amazon jungles how the story of the Ugandan lion contrasts sharply with the from Gat what are exercise pills if you're taking them And what's the fuss about the Titanic door holder he has?

This reach from Kev comes as he looks at Ghana. support ahead of this summer's Peace Summit This is Dimitro Kba's first trip to India since taking office in 2020 staying in India no relief for jail Delhi Prime Minister Arind Krial has challenged his arrest by the enforcement directorate in the Delhi High Court on The court gives the agency time till April 2 to file its reply. Hisbah fires a barrage of rockets into northern Israel.

It comes after the Israeli attack on southern Lebanon since the Gaza war began in October. Hisbah, backed by Iran, has frequently exchanged cross-border fire with Israel. The Japanese yen. hits a low of 34e against the US dollar the fall has fueled speculation about possible government intervention to boost the currency last week the Bank of Japan had raised interest rates for the first time in 17 years Thailand's Parliament approves the project of law on same-sex marriage with this Thailand becomes the first Southeast Asian country to recognize equal marriage in Asia. Only Taiwan and Nepal recognize same sex marriage and ab Dila speaks in the first post talking about her friendship with Virat Koh and how they created magic for Royal Challengers bangaluru, it's the first time. exclusive post he is a good man with a very tough and very generous personality who always has time for everyone, so he makes it very easy to be around and in the park.

I think at this stage of his career he showed a lot more calm. emotion old habits are hard to eradicate and for the US that old habit is meddling by poking its nose into other countries, this time it is India. You may have seen this in this news story from Delhi last week. Delhi Chief Minister Arin Krial was arrested. Investigative agencies accuse him of corruption so Indian law is taking its course Indian agencies are investigating Indian courts are hearing allegations and Indian leaders are involved there is no foreign angle and no room to get involved but Washington could not remain silent They were asked for a comment on Kajal's arrest and this is what they said.

I am quoting: we encourage a fair, transparent and timely legal process for the krial prime minister. It would have been a fair response if you were talking about the United States of America, so there had to be a lecture now that India has taken a hit for these comments. He has needed, quote, strong objection to US meddling again, let me quote the States. He is expected to be respectful of the sovereignty and internal affairs of others; Otherwise, he could end up setting an unhealthy precedent. India's legal processes are based on an independent judiciary that is committed to objective and timely results that blur what is not justified.

It doesn't end here. India. He also summoned a senior American diplomat. Her name is Gloria Bbina. She is the deputy chief of mission in Delhi. Today she was called by the Ministry of External Affairs of India. The meeting lasted 40 minutes. I am sure the Indian side had a lot to say but it is not just the US last week Germany did the same also their Foreign Ministry was asked about Kajal's arrest look at their response we have taken note of in this case India is a democratic country we hope and assume that the norms regarding the independence of the judiciary and the basic principles Democratic principles will also be applied in this case as anyone who faces accusations.

Mr. Krial has the right to a fair and impartial trial. This includes that he can use all legal avenues without restrictions. The presumption of innocence is a central element of the rule of law. and I must ask you again for the wrong answer. Why talk about access to legal services? Why ask for a fair trial? These are not exceptions in India. This is the norm which are guaranteed by the Constitution of India. We don't need Germany to remind us. He has top-notch attorneys representing him. He has not been condemned without trial. He can go to any court he wants.

Let's listen to what New Delhi said this week, and I quote again: We consider such comments to interfere with our judicial process and undermine the independence of our judiciary. The law will take its own course in the present matter. The Indian Embassy in Berlin also intervened and issued a Demar to Germany, basically a formal complaint, so India's message to both countries is clear: stay in your lane, we can handle our own affairs, but don't expect None of the countries follow this advice, just consider the United States. States earlier this month raised concerns about another Indian issue, the new citizenship law.

CAA Washington said it would closely monitor the law. India also criticized those comments, but days later, the US was back at it, so my point is quite simple: India can criticize the commons. summon envoys and issue demars, but these western countries will not change, so what else can India do? Can you make a change? Basically, give the West a taste of its own medicine and there is a lot to criticize. The United States has virtually no right to abortion. US detention centers are suffering a presidential candidate in the US faces 91 felony charges if India then talks about a fair, transparent and timely legal process for Mr Trump Germany is considering banning the right-wing party if India starts criticizing them, they won't do it because that is not New Delhi's way, in fact it should not be any country style, we are not saying that countries are beyond criticism, they are not, but meddling for the sake of meddling is wrong and counterproductive, so commenting before understanding the nuances of a case is.

Just one silver lining: it shows there is resilience in the bonds. Both the United States and Germany are key partners for India and so far those comments have not been derailed, they have been handled on a case-by-case basis, but perhaps it cannot be taken for granted. one day these comments will be profound, perhaps they will galvanize public opinion and then it may be too late, it is something these Western powers should think about, which brings us to Donald Trump, the former president of the United States, running again for office and facing a series of legal challenges.

In an interesting turn of events, Trump has made a fortune this week, he is now among the 500

richest

people in the

world

, his net worth sold for over 4 billion and Donald Trump needs all that extra money to fight his battles legal, both in civil and criminal cases. Cases of insurrection. He is accused of trying to overturn the 2020 US presidential election. The classified documents. The scandal. Trump allegedly tried to steal top secret documents. This is after losing the presidency. He is also accused of defrauding the city of New York to the tune of millions of dollars. there's the hush money case in which Trump allegedly paid an adult actress using campaign funds there's a defamation case involving a woman he allegedly raped the list goes on and on so you can imagine the costs involved Donald Trump has paid his lawyers millions of dollars around 100 million since he left office, adding to this the recent New York ruling in which he was asked to pay a bail of 464 million dollars that he narrowly evaded.

Yesterday the amount was reduced to $175 million and why was it reduced because Donald Trump's lawyer said he couldn't. pay Trump himself said he barely had enough to cover the bonus, now 500 million in cash is a lot of money so Trump was about to lose it all so the courts reduced the amount because Trump said he would be bankrupt if they did . didn't reduce it but look how it turned out he got his fine reduced and made a fortune the same day

trump

must be excited about his new wealth yesterday he got about $4.5 billion richer $4.5 billion richer is his net worth now somewhere around $65 billion dollars, how did this windfall come about?

Because of his

social

media platform, it is called Truth

social

now. Trump has always been active on social media as president, he was famous for the 4 a.m. tweets, but after losing the 2020 election he was banned from it. Twitter removed him from the platform, so what did he do? Trump created his own Twitter clone. It's called Social Truth. Trump has a majority in it and yesterday this was what bore fruit for him. Truth Social's parent company is called Trump Media and Technology Group. Now two things happened. Yesterday first merged with a company called Digital World Acquisition Core.

This is also known as a blank check company. These are companies that exist only to attract investors and then go public, so Trump Media and Technology Group. merged with this blank check company to create a new company. Trump owns 58% of this new entity and then this company went public and began trading on the NASDAQ stock exchange under the symbol djt of Donald J. Trump of course djt and the value of the company increased to a moment, share prices rose more than 50% at the end of trading, the company was worth around 8 billion. Now remember that Trump owns almost 60%, so he is now worth around 6 and 5 billion dollars.

Explain this post from yesterday Trump. put it on social Truth and this is what he said, so what does it all mean? Donald Trump is now rich and his financial problems are behind him. Will it be a happy ending for him and his fellow investors? Well, not quite Trump may be richer than ever, but that wealth is not liquid, he does not have the money, Trump's company went public after merging with a blank check firm. Now usually these deals have a clause that major investors can't sell their stake for 6 months and this should mean Trump can't sell shares to raise money, but this is Donald Trump, you may have found a way to avoid it.

His son Donald Trump Jr. is a member of the board of directors. The other members are all Trump supporters. They may simply allow the former president to bend the rules to help with his legal affairs. problems and if they do it may happen soon because the stock is very unstable, think about it, the

truth

is that social media is not as popular as other social media companies, it is actually a loss making company, it lost $49 million in 9 months in 2023, generated only 3 and a half million the company has a small user base it is unlikely to make money the only reason it is so valuable is Donald Trump the average Trump supporter is the one who is buying these shares The Ordinary people drive up stock prices mainly because they want to show their support for Trump, but what will happen a few months after the election, whether Trump wins or loses, the

truth

is that social networks will not make money, his supporters will not They will have reasons to buy the stock, and without demand, the stock price will rise. tank and if Trump cashes in, it's game over, truth be told, social stocks will hit rock bottom and anyone left with them will suffer a massive loss, so Donald Trump probably won't be the one to take the hit, he'll make money off of this, but that It is in the future, as I said, your wealth is not yet liquid and your legal fees are increasing, so unless you sell your shares, you are in an awkward position as of today.

Donald Trump is rich and broke at the same time. Now let's talk about jobs, specifically the The job market in India in recent years has beendefiantly, there has been a global wave of layoffs and it has not spared India. Thousands of people have lost their jobs across companies and sectors, but tonight we're focusing on India for a specific reason, according to a new report. prepared by the international labor organization or ILO talks about employment in India or lack thereof says that a large number of young Indians are jobless the figures are staggering in the year 2000 around 35% of young Indians were unemployed by 2022 the number has almost doubled the io says that around 65% of youth in India are unemployed 65% how did this happen?

Let me put this figure in perspective in these 22 years from the year 2000 to 2022, India's population increased dramatically, more people entered the workforce, but jobs have not been created at the same rate, so the growth of the Employment does not match population growth. Let me show you another figure from this report. It says that 83% of the unemployed workforce in India is under 34 years of age, making the majority of the unemployed. The people are young and this is worrying because India's young population is seen as a national asset, driving optimism around the future of the Indian economy. Our youth is an important selling point for international companies.

They also want to invest in India to fuel the passion. Young economists celebrate India's demographic ad

vantage

, so why can't India capitalize on this youth? Why haven't we been able to create enough opportunities? It was always a difficult task and the pandemic seems to make things worse before Wuhan. The virus hit the economy, employment among youth was still increasing until 2019, the numbers were increasing, but the pandemic seems to have reversed the trend. Job creation was affected and we have yet to recover and this will be a long-term challenge. More than 50% of India's population is under 25 years old, so more Indians will enter the job market in the next decade.

We will add 7-8 million job seekers, so another 7-8 million people will look for jobs in India. We will have to create jobs for them and that is a challenge not only for India, by the way, but for the whole

world

. The pace of job creation has slowed globally. The ILO itself published an evaluation in this regard. The projection came last year and said job creation was around. the world will grow only 1% in 2023, as I said, this was a projection, we don't have the real numbers yet and by 2024, the ILO said jobs will grow only 1.1%, so the growth is marginal, which is why major economies are facing unemployment. crisis that we have already told you about India, the unemployment rate is around 8% here, according to the Center for monitoring the Indian economy, now look at Europe, countries like Spain, Greece, Sweden, Italy, Finland, France, they were all struggling last year, all these countries reported. an unemployment rate of more than 7% and China is even worse about 12 million people are out of work in China and these figures are from July of last year the situation has only gotten worse since then, to the point that As of August China stopped publishing its youth unemployment data, so we really don't know, we don't have the numbers, we don't know how the world's second largest economy is doing on the jobs front and all of these trends are important. , these global trends, India should pay attention to them because if major economies are struggling to create jobs, the impact will be felt in India too.

Added to this is the increase in emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI), which are disrupting the labor market. Companies are widely adopting AI tools and this will eliminate more jobs. It will also create new jobs and that is the trend India needs to focus on. What is needed is innovative thinking that takes ad

vantage

of technology and plays to its strengths and this also applies to job seekers, especially young people, what is learned in the classroom today. You will soon become redundant, so focus on constantly improving your skills, follow emerging trends, and align your training with market demands.

Also know that you are entering rough waters, there are many interruptions that you may have to wait for, even having difficulty finding your dream job. Let's focus on the Chip War. Now there are many battles within this broader conflict: United States against China, Taiwan against China, Intel against Nvidia, so many battles that shape this war, but tonight we will focus on one battle in particular: China. versus the Netherlands the Dutch Prime Minister was in Beijing today his name is Mark Root she had a very important meeting with Xi Jinping and the background was chips she had a stern warning for the Dutch Prime Minister she said that creating trade barriers will lead to confrontation he He also said that no one can stop China's progress.

Those are very harsh words to be expected from Taiwan or the United States, but why towards the Netherlands? Because of a company called asml, a multinational company based in the Netherlands, asml, and what do they do? They make machines. who make chips, let me explain, most chips are made of silicon sheets and these sheets need to be cut and sliced ​​very thin. We're talking less than 10 nanometers to put it in context, a strand of hair is around 100,000 nanometers, so imagine 10 nanometers. You can barely see, obviously, you need a special technology to do this to cut the silicon sheets so thin that this technology is called ultraviolet lithography and who masters this technology.

This company represents 62% of the market. Other players include Nikon and Canon, now Netherlands. It is an ally of the US. It is a founding member of NATO, so Washington put pressure on the Netherlands, they told them not to do business with China, not to sell them chip machinery and last year the Dutch government agreed that imposed export licenses, let's say you want to sell chips. Machinery abroad needs government authorization, i.e. licensing, and this year licenses began to be denied. ASML applied to sell chip machinery to China but was not granted permission, the Dutch government blocked it, which brings us to Mark Ro's visit, where he finds himself in a difficult situation. on the one hand, the United States is a long-time ally, a country that shares nuclear weapons with the Dutch, on the other hand, it is the largest company in the Netherlands, a big source of money for them, the company is lobbying To the government, China is their second largest market after Taiwan, so they cannot sell to China.

Asml could lose billions. Added to that is the bad timing. The Netherlands had elections in November last year, but no party or group has formed a government, so Mark Root is more of a caretaker. I don't know how much power he really has, but the man on the other side doesn't have those problems. I'm talking about Xi Jinping, he wants to turn China into a chip superpower and for that he needs asml, so he can force the Dutch PM's hand. Xi Jinping has some influence and bilateral trade was only 3 billion dollars in 1995, today it is almost 94 billion dollars and this trade is labeled in favor of China.

Its exports to the Netherlands are worth 70 billion dollars, this includes important electronic items such as modems, routers, computers. laptops, tablets so that Beijing can pull some strings and the Dutch Prime Minister knows it, he is trying to downplay the impact of this ra on the EIC's overall economic ties, he says his policy is not directed at any country, which I can tell you is that when it comes to our semicon sector and companies like asml that when we have to take measures that are never targeted at a specific country uh that we always try to make sure that the impact is limited it's not impacting the supply chain um and um therefore it is not impacting, let's say The general economic relationship, of course, no one believes it, especially since they are no longer happy with the Dutch government.

There has recently been talk that the company is changing base and may be moving out of the Netherlands, the main reason being immigration laws. Asml employs around 23,000 people. In the Netherlands, around 40% of them are immigrants, so if the rules are stricter the talent pool will shrink and it is a difficult challenge for Mark Root. His career as prime minister may be over, but a new one is calling. Root is the favorite to become next. NATO chief, so allies will closely monitor your movements we are in 2024 women have made progress in all areas of life they are breaking glass ceilings but in Saudi Arabia their progress is measured by a catwalk the kingdom is ready to participate in the Miss Universe contest representing Riyadh will be Roomi Al Katani, 27, and why is this news?

Because Saudi women have long faced strict restrictions, but the kingdom is now opening up. Women can now participate in sports and even participate in beauty pageants, but while Riyadh may see it as a sign of progress, this is what beauty pageants were once popular, but in today's world they are archaic institutions that judge to women just based on their appearance, the whole world should eliminate them, as for Riyadh's entry in the next. The report tells you why it's a mixed bag. Meet Roomi Al Katani, she is 27 years old, she is from Saudi Arabia and has made a big name for herself in the pageant industry, from Miss Saudi Arabia to Miss Middle East.

Al Kathani has won most of the titles, but this year she is the model. aims bigger is looking at the Miss Universe crown Al Katani will participate in the Miss Universe beauty pageant this year it is not just another debut because Saudi Arabia has never participated in the pageant so it is a first for both Al Katani and the kingdom . symbolic gesture to redefine its image on the world stage Saudi Arabia has long had strict restrictions, especially for women, in recent years the kingdom has relaxed its rules, a push for modernization as it opens up, to women They are allowed to drive and can apply for passports without a male guardian strict dress regulations have been relaxed there are mixed gender events women can participate in sports and now even in beauty patents many have considered this as a progressive movement, but are they allowed to drive? is it really like that?

Beauty pageants have long been criticized for objectifying women and reinforcing harmful stereotypes. Take the Miss Universe pageant for example, it is the largest international beauty pageant where women from all countries apply. They must be between 18 and 28 years old. Contestants are judged in three categories, evening dress competition, swimsuit competition and a personality interview. Miss Universe says that beauty is not a requirement, however, two of the three pageants judge them on their appearance, and contestants must not have children or be married. That's why these contests started in the first place based on the tales of young and beautiful women to attract business and the modus operandi remains the same even in 2024 this universe earns $5 million in revenue every year, they can claim inclusion but essentially nothing has changed, it's a corporate beauty pageant that makes money and reduces women to mere objects of scrutiny and judgment and the motto remains the same, you can be talented, you can achieve it, but all of that only matters if and only if you are stereotypically beautiful, no wonder they are no longer popular, they are regressive and out of step with reality.

Beauty pageant viewership is steadily declining in 2022. Miss Universe attracted 2.7 million viewers, less than half of the viewers. who tuned in 5 years ago for the beauty pageant to be in our cake institution Saudi Arabia You can heal your participation as a sign of progress but that train left the station a long time ago because surely in 2024 no one really thinks that A Woman's Worth is linked to it the ability to strut in a swimsuit now let's look at the Pacific, where two great powers are facing each other, on the one hand there is the Western Alliance led by countries like the United States and Australia, on the other there is China, what is developing is a tough war, both sides want influence.

In the Pacific states, their latest battleground is Tuvalu, a small island country between Australia and Hawaii with a population of around 11,000 people. Talu is being aggressively ceded by the West and it appears to have worked because Australia and Talu are now signing a pact. Canura is offering the island security and protection against climate change Australia promises to help talu in the event of a major natural disaster,A health Emercy or an attack from an adversary is a sign of the times, previous allies promised security against an enemy country, today climate change is also a sign. an enemy threatens to erase entire islands that's why security pacts include a climate change insurance clause this one talks specifically about climate migration Australia will extend residence permits to citizens of Tuvalu will allow 280 people to migrate from Tuvalu to Australia each year but what's happening?

In this for Australia, what do you get in return? Gets a veto. The power to dictate Talu security policy. Any security package they sign in the future will have to be approved by Australia. That is the agreement that Australia had announced last year. a closed deal, but then there was a robbery. Talu was heading into an election, so the deal had to take a backseat. There were fears that a pro-China government could come to power and decide to scrap the deal entirely, which would have been a major setback. For the West, Dualo is one of the few Pacific nations they can trust.

It is among a small group of nations that officially recognizes Taiwan and maintains diplomatic relations with the island. The Pacific has a total of 15 countries, only three of them recognize Taiwan. tuvalu the marshall islands and palao and beijing is doing everything possible to change this talu had elections in the month of january before the elections a pro-china candidate was the favorite a man named Steve P served as finance minister of tal and his approach was quite transactional, he was open to recognizing China in exchange for a better deal, consider what he said before the election and I quote, as far as I'm concerned it comes down to whichever country offers the most support to achieve Tal's development priorities and aspirations. but his speech had few followers, he was defeated by the attorney general of Fet T Toal and from time to time by the prime minister, and here is something we must tell you about his system, this island country has no political parties, its Parliament has only 16 seats, so all legislators compete as independents and once elected they vote among themselves to elect the Prime Minister and this time the legislators chose Feto.

The Western Alliance also endorsed it earlier this month. The Prime Minister said that he will not abandon ties with Taiwan which are purely based on democratic principles and they have been very loyal to us and we have also been very loyal to them and their presence on the ground has been quite visible and they have not caused us any important difficulty as far as I know, as far as I know. As far as my new government is concerned, there are much more pressing development needs of the country than investing and engaging in the debate between two Chinas and it is now reaffirming that commitment by signing a security pact with Australia and is taking a principled approach here .

Remember this is just a small island nation of 11,000 people, but it is taking on China. Tuvalu says it is a democracy and Taiwan has been loyal to it so it will continue to support it and while the West will welcome the stance, they must also realize that China does not withdraw, new challenges will continue to arise, so when When it comes to these smaller partners, the West will have to put its money where its mouth is, close its eyes and imagine that the president of France and the president of Brazil are meeting with two large economies and militaries. two experienced world leaders, where do you imagine?

They met perhaps in a luxurious hotel or a presidential palace, but the real meeting occurred somewhere else, in the middle of a jungle. That's right, Emmanuel Macron is traveling through South America and on Tuesday he landed in the Brazilian city of BM. President Lula of Brazil was welcomed. Then both men took a boat ride together their destination the island of kbu in the Amazon jungle was diplomacy jumangi Style now to business what were they doing macroon and Lula in the jungle trying to save it both men announced a project to protect the Amazon the plan is invest $1.1 billion, this money will be distributed over four years and where will it come from both state funds and the private sector?

We're talking about a billion-doll conservation effort, and a much-needed one. The Amazon is the largest rainforest in the world. world covers around 2 and a half million square kilometers contains 200 billion tons of carbon we are talking about a world within a world this is how vast the Amazon is if this forest disappears it will affect the Earth it could accelerate climate change so protect it It is a global responsibility, but Lula's predecessor did not buy any of this. That's what J Bolsonaro under his government deforestation in the Amazon reached new records Lula says he is trying to correct what he claims that deforestation has fallen 34% under his government, but how does France fit in? scene?

To begin with, Macron benefits from all this. France is an Amazonian power. They have an overseas territory in South America. It is called French Guana and this territory borders Brazil. They share a 700 km long border. It is actually the longest French border, 700 km. So France has a border of 700 km. What is at stake here is keeping the locals and tribes happy. President Macron has taken a step in that direction. He awarded the Legion of Honor to an indigenous leader. It is the highest civilian award in France. He also promised to continue the fight for the preservation of the Amazon.

I modestly wanted to say that we will continue to lead alongside you when necessary to support the foundation and preserve our part of the forest, we were there and we will continue to be there with President Lula today and therefore even stronger because this fight has not found its end because today you are still fighting for the recognition of your homeland, so applaud everyone, but the climate is not the only agenda here, there is much more on the table, especially on the economic front. Brazil is a rising star in the global south and is also the largest economy in South America.

France has already invested some 40 billion dollars in Brazil. It is the main foreign employer in the country. Macron will be interested in expanding. He travels with a contingent of 120 business leaders. He tells you what he's thinking. A political reset is also important. As he sees, Macron has not been able to focus on South America. In fact, he had not visited the continent as president until this week. This is the first time and a big reason for it was that Lula's predecessor in 2019 mocked Bolsonaro. Macron's wife, the first lady of France, someone on social media said that Bolsonaro's wife was prettier than Macron's wife and Bolsonaro backed it up, so as expected, Macron hid, what can I say?

It's sad, it's sad for him first of all and for the Brazilians and since then. I have a lot of friendship and respect for the Brazilian nation. I hope that very soon they will have a president who behaves in the correct way. Now Bolsonaro governed from 2019 to 2022. That was wasted time for Macron. Now with Lula in office, he is trying to catch up, could Brazil help Curry favors in the global South we saw an attempt last year in the bricks Macron supposedly tried to get an invitation to the summit at that time Russia rejected but with more members on his side who knows maybe Macron will make Making progress, of course, also depends a lot on Lula, his background is very different from that of Emanuel Macron.

The French president is a centrist and a former banker, but Lula is a genuine leftist. When he was a teenager, he worked in metal factories, so we are talking about two. very different leaders, but then again, when did that stop Emmanuel Macron? Our next story is about lions. The kings of jungle lions once roamed Africa and Asia, even living in Europe in the past, but today they are much more restricted, whereas lions are now. Mainly present in three regions of Central and Eastern Africa and India in the state of Gujarat in Africa lions are under attack the latest report from Uganda is grim Uganda used to be home to almost 500 lions this was in 2014 500 last year the number decreased to 275, which is a massive drop and a stark contrast to the history of India, where lion conservation has been a resounding success.

Pardon the pun, but recent surveys say India is on the right track and the world could learn something from Gujarat. Here is our report. Uganda. The Ministry of Tourism and Wildlife sounded the alarm yesterday, they painted a gloomy picture. Uganda says its lion population is falling and rapidly over the last 20 years, it has declined by about 45%, almost half of this decline has not been constant, it appears to have increased. In recent years, between 2014 and 2023, the Yugas lion population fell from 493 to 275 and this is a cause for great alarm in the tourism-dependent East African nation. Tourism accounts for almost 7.6% of Uganda's GDP.

The country depends on tourism for valuable foreign currency and wildlife. Tourism is the largest source of income. Uganda is home to rich biodiversity. It has herds of giant elephants, tens of thousands of buffalo and more than 2,000 giraffes, but the biggest crowd-puller is, of course, the king of the jungle, the African lion. Uganda is famous for two types of lions. There is the standard variety, the lions that make their home in the tall grass of the African savannah, but Uganda also has another type. Lions that can climb trees. These jungle cats reside in Uganda's Queen Elizabeth National Park, making it a must-see for wildlife enthusiasts, but whether standard or tree huggers, Ugi lions are sometimes killed by hunters, but often by ordinary people, people who live near national parks and AR, tired of lions taking their livestock, this human-animal conflict is a major problem.

Several communities live around the Uganda national park. The parks and government have not done enough to protect them from wildlife, they are owed compensation for any animal attacks, but this often does not mitigate their losses, so frustrated locals have begun to take the matter into their own hands. their own hands and often end up poisoning the lions. The Yuga government has tried to make an example of poisoners in the past, but it hasn't really worked and as a result, the Ugis lion population continues to decline. That is the story on the African continent, but across the sea the story is a little different from that of India.

The state of Gujarat is a success story when it comes to lions. A few weeks ago, the International Union for Conservation of Nature singled out Gujarat and said that Gujarat's lions were 19 times safer than their African counterparts. Their numbers have remained stable in Gujarat, reaching 674 at the last count, meaning Gujarat has 400 more lions than Uganda. In fact, the IUCN says that Gadrat's lions are no longer endangered. How has the State achieved this? Why is the secrecy behind Gadrat's lion conservation model partly due to the attitude the Gadrat State is trying to foster? coexistence between humans and lions are expanding the lion sanctuary to give more space to the growing lion population.

Indian courts are also taking note of threats such as the Indian Railways. The courts have asked railway authorities to stop incidents with lions. In trains, every arm of the administration is working to conserve the lions of Gad, so it has borne fruit. Hopefully Gadrat can serve as a conservation model for Africa and laughter may be the best medicine, but ask any scientist and they will probably suggest it. Competitive exercise helps maintain strong bones, muscles and blood vessels Increases immunity Reduces the risk of cancer and heart disease Extends life expectancy Moving your body is also good for the mind, but the thought of exercising often makes you groan. , according to United States countries, at least 30% of people do not get enough exercise worldwide and this can be deadly.

Physical inactivity is the fourth risk factor for mortality. More than 3 million people die each year because they don't get enough exercise. Physical inactivity is a global problem, but what if there was a magic pill to help mitigate all of this, according to scientists, there might be one, an exercise pill, and I'm not making this up. Think of exercise pills as exercise mimetics, they can come in capsule or injection form, ideally they could. Replicating the benefits of exercise may seem far-fetched, but this is not a new concept from Norway. Japanese scientists have spent years trying to design exercise pills and now they seem to be getting closer and I'll tell you why a team of American scientists have created new compounds these are proteins can regulate the impact of exercise on muscles can mimic the physical drive From training so far only in rodents, these compounds were tested in mice and improved muscle functionFitness and endurance the goal is to bring them benefits to humans now, but for that more tests are required first in other animals and then in humans, but this is not the only step forward, several scientists are studying similar compounds and some are trying to convert normal fat cells into energy burning fat cells, others plan to reduce excess blood sugar, so there are different ideas, but the goal is singular for a pill that stimulates the benefits of exercise, but let's get back to it. basic for a minute.

What is the purpose of an exercise pill? of the obligation to go to the gym, which could be a byproduct, but is not the goal. These medications are not for the lazy or those short on time. The goal is to provide the benefits of exercise to people who cannot exercise. Everyone can exercise like the elderly, people with muscle wasting diseases or movement disorders, post-surgical patients or obese patients, exercise pills could benefit them greatly, they could be life-changing, but there are major challenges here, these drugs have the potential If abused, athletes may want them to cheat the system, couch potatoes may use them for an easy out or for cosmetic purposes.

We are seeing this with anti-obesity drugs, they are the new big thing OIC and have become such household names that there are regular drug shortages. for patients who really need them and there is another lesson here: medications are valuable tools in the fight against the obesity epidemic, but they have many side effects, some are long-term and life-threatening; Without a doubt, anti-obesity medications can save lives, but they are also a multiple problem for society. Scientists fear that this will be the case with exercise pills as well, so they are acting cautiously, they are trying to minimize dangerous side effects, let's say the scientists are successful in doing so.

If so, will medications replace actual exercise? It may be difficult, at the end of the day, exercise pills will artificially stimulate the human body, but they are unlikely to replicate all the benefits of exercise, in all likelihood for some people. Targets will be chosen and hopefully the exercise pills will be successful in hitting them, but for now researchers are focusing on just two things: making pills that work in humans and ensuring they are safe. If the evidence checks both boxes, there is a high probability that exercise pills could be the Blockbuster drugs of the future Titanic the movie released in the year 1997 in all likelihood caused trauma among the love story peddlers at the same time that generated a debate among fans who wondered if both Jack and Rose, the protagonist, could have been accommodated in the floating door, if both could have been saved, now a lucky theorist can test the hypothesis that the floating door accessory the film went up for auction this week and guess how much it sold for a whopping $700,000 i.e. almost 6 CR rupees.

If it sounds incredible, let me. I tell you that this is not the first case of this type. Movie props are now treated as luxury collectibles. So what are the other examples and what is behind the so-called accessory culture? Here's a report: Have you seen the movie Titanic if you haven't? climax scene recap so you know you can't blame us for the spoilers after all the movie came out in 1997 so here goes at the end of Titanic Rose, played by Kate Winset, floats into a door frame and is She clings to her beloved Jack, played by Leonardo DiCaprio.

To the edge of it, they try to climb to a relatively safe place, but realize that there is only room for one person at the door, so Jack sacrifices his life for Rose. Soon, a rescue boat arrives just in time for Rose as Jack SL gets hooked beneath the surface of the For many Atlantic viewers, this scene left scars as Jack drowned, our hearts sank, maybe that's why fans didn't. They don't care that the ocean was actually a tank containing 17 million gallons of water or that the door frame was any other pop-culture wood panel. The prop is iconic and here is proof that this prop recently came up for auction as part of a hoard of Hollywood movie memorabilia and sold for $718,000, that's over $700,000 for a broken door.

The winning bidder wishes to remain anonymous and his reasons for doing so. The purchases are unknown, but it's easy to make an assumption here. The accessory has become the subject of heated debate among fans. Many ask if the panel would have kept both Jack and Rose afloat. If Jack's death was necessary. This debate has raged for decades, to such an extent that in 2022 director James Cameron decided to put an end to it all. He conducted a scientific study that included a hypothermia expert, specialists and sensors. He recreated the scene and used a variety of methods, but the answer was that only one could survive, so he invoked less scientific reasoning. saying that Jack needed to die and that love is measured by sacrifice perhaps, but for movie buffs love is often measured by splurging on accessories like Marilyn Monroe's white dress sold for $4.6 million or the lion costume The Wizard of Oz sold for over $3 million James Bond's underwater car sold for $860,000 just a few decades ago Key items from the movies were often left out, but today many movie studios have their own accessory files.

In fact, legendary movie props are considered luxury collectibles. People say this is no different from investing in art. As time passes, the value of some of these collectibles increases significantly. For example, a collector bought this gag 5 years ago for $1,000. This item is famous from the movie Pulp Fiction. Today, its expected value is $25,000. Experts say the accessory collectors market is hot, there is a lot of competition, it's all about knowing what to buy. do it to make money, others do it for the love of pop culture, no matter the reason, either way prop culture is having its moment and now it's time for Vantage images that tell the story in Columbia, authorities They see more than five tons of cocaine after a high level.
