Psychology says people who spend generously on friends may be getting something money cant buy

Over time, generosity can become a familiar way of expressing affection and maintaining closeness. People communicate care differently: one friend may prefer meaningful conversations, another may step in whenever help is needed, while someone else may show affection by cooking. For others, spending on meals, gifts, tickets or small surprises can become a natural way of showing that someone matters to them.

Quote of the day by Irvin D. Yalom: People who feel empty never heal by merging with another incomplete person - Existential psychiatrist on why emotional healing starts from within

Quote of the day by Irvin D. Yalom: Irvin D. Yaloms quote emphasizes that attempting to heal our internal void by connecting with someone equally flawed leads to codependency instead of a true bond. Relying on another to remedy our insecurities results in superficial relationships. True personal development necessitates addressing our psychological scars solo. In today's dating culture, the misconception that someone can finalize our identity prevails. Fostering self-healing paves the way for deeper, more satisfying relationships.

Cardamom, or elaichi, is traditionally associated with positivity, freshness and prosperity, with some people carrying a pod in their pocket before stepping out. Beyond these beliefs, cardamom can serve as a natural mouth freshener after meals. Its aromatic oils provide a sweet, refreshing flavour that can help mask lingering food odours.

Mahhi Vij says Bhojpuri people must be spitting on her amid massive showdown with Aamrapali Dubey over food

Digital Desk | Mumbai, Sep 16 (IANS) The ongoing tensions between Bigg Boss 20 contestants Mahhi Vij and Aamrapali Dubey seemed escalated into a heated showdown over food, after which Mahhi made a sharp remark about Aamrapalis Bhojpuri identity after their major argument. The latest confrontation began in the Bigg Boss kitchen during a discussion around the preparation of chicken. Aamrapali, who was part of the cooking team, objected to Mahhi interfering with the cooking process. The disagreement quickly turned personal, with the two exchanging pointed remarks. According to Aamrapali, the argument began after Mahhi questioned the way the chicken was being prepared, including the addition of potatoes. This irked Aamrapali who did not like Mahhis constant interference in the cooking process, considering she herself does not know how to cook. Following the altercation, Mahhi was seen venting her frustration and getting emotional while speaking to other housemates. In the footage, she made it clear that cooking is not something she handles at home. If I don't know how to cook, then? I don't know how to cook. I have a cook in my house. I have worked hard to get a cook, Mahhi said. She also appeared to hit back at the criticism directed at her, saying, They are disgusting women. My foot! I will finish them in two minutes. The argument took another turn when Mahhi made a remark referencing Aamrapalis Bhojpuri background. Thookte honge Bhojpuri ke log is par, she said. (Bhojpuri people must be spitting on her) The remark came amid the heated exchange and appeared to be directed at the situation involving Aamrapali. During the confrontation, Aamrapali told Mahhi to stay away from the kitchen while they were cooking. Mahhi responded, You don't exist to me. Aamrapali then hit back with a comment about Mahhi's cooking, saying that when Mahhi cooks, there is barely enough food for 16 people. Later, Amrapali Dubey was also seen visibly hurt after learning that Qazi had told Mahhi Vij not to give Aamrapali footage, calling Mahhi is a star. Amrapali said, It is very difficult for an artist to explain their work and their position to another artist. Amrapali also brought up the influence of the Bhojpuri community, saying that Bhojpuri people have a significant role in governance and are also very strong in politics.

UN relief chief fast-tracks funds for displaced people in Yemen

Digital Desk | United Nations, Sep 16 (IANS) UN Emergency Relief Coordinator Tom Fletcher has released 9 million US dollars in urgent funds to provide assistance to displaced Yemeni families and their host communities, said the UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA). The United Nations and its humanitarian partners continue to support displaced families and others caught up in the hostilities. But humanitarian supplies and resources are running low, said OCHA on Tuesday (local time). Humanitarian access and movement remain severely constrained due to insecurity. Movement along key routes is restricted or suspended, making it harder to reach many of those in dire need, said OCHA. The office calls on all parties to protect civilians, respect international humanitarian law, and facilitate safe and unimpeded humanitarian access so that urgently needed assistance can reach people in need, reports Xinhua news agency. The UN Refugee Agency (UNHCR) said that escalating hostilities along Yemen's western coast have displaced more than 100,000 people inside the country and forced thousands more to seek safety across Bab al-Mandab Strait in Djibouti. The UNHCR said that humanitarian access is a major challenge and that insecurity, damaged roads, telecommunications disruptions and movement restrictions affect operations. Damage to Al Makha port has further constrained humanitarian movement and logistics. The agency said that fighting has uprooted families across several governorates, raising concerns about further displacement inside Yemen and additional refugee movements if hostilities intensify. Many families fled at short notice with few belongings. Shelter, food, clean water, health care and protection services are among the most urgent needs, as receiving communities and displacement sites become overstretched, said the UNHCR. The agency said that over the past four days, more than 2,400 people have made the sea crossing from Yemen to Djibouti. More than 60 per cent were women, children and older people. People are arriving after a difficult sea journey, many exhausted, distressed and carrying what little they could take with them, said Sandrine Desamours, the UNHCR representative in Djibouti. The response is already under pressure. We urgently need more support before more families arrive and needs outpace our capacity to assist them. The UNHCR is also monitoring the possibility of onward or parallel movements toward Somalia, where contingency planning is under way should additional arrivals materialise. The agency said it is deeply concerned about more than 65,000 registered refugees and asylum-seekers inside Yemen, most from Somalia and Ethiopia, who face renewed risks.

Serve people, not postings: CM Omar to new officers

Srinagar, Sep 15: Don't keep postings and promotions in mind. Just think that you have got a chance which very few people get, Chief Minister Omar Abdullah said on Tuesday as he distributed appointment orders to 55 newly selected candidates of the Combined Competitive Examination entering the Jammu & Kashmir Administrative Service and Jammu & Kashmir Accounts (Gazetted) Service at a function held at SKICC here. The 55 newly appointed officers include 28 Junior Scale JKAS officers and 27 Accounts Officers of the J&K Accounts (Gazetted) Service. Ministers Javid Ahmed Dar and Satish Sharma, Advisor to the Chief Minister Nasir Aslam Wani, Chief Secretary Atal Dulloo, Additional Chief Secretary to the Chief Minister Dheeraj Gupta, Commissioner Secretary, General Administration Department, M. Raju, senior officers of the GAD, newly appointed officers and their parents were present on the occasion. Addressing the gathering, the Chief Minister congratulated the newly selected officers and their parents and families, acknowledging the effort, perseverance and sacrifices that went into their selection. He told the officers that receiving their appointment orders was not the destination of their journey but a new beginning, and that they had covered only a small part of the larger journey ahead. Now you have to decide how you want people to remember you when you complete this journey. Only you can decide that, the Chief Minister said, urging them to build their careers on the foundations of competence, honesty and hard work. Abdullah said public servants are remembered not merely for the positions they hold but for the difference they make in the lives of people. He advised the officers to uphold integrity and ensure that their conduct in public service earns them respect. The CM reminded the officers that behind every government file, application and complaint isthe story of a person.While every grievance or complaint may not necessarily be justified, he said, there is a reason behind every grievance, and officers must have the sensitivity and willingness to understand people's problems and work towards resolving them. He urged the newly appointed officers to look beyond promotions and postings and recognise the opportunity and responsibility that comes with being part of the civil services. Don't keep postings and promotions in mind. Just think that you have got a chance which very few people get, he said. The Chief Minister also asked the officers to prepare themselves for challenges that Jammu and Kashmir may face in the coming decades, including improving education, making cities cleaner and more liveable, addressing climate change and responding to emerging technologies such as Artificial Intelligence. He said that the nature of governance and the challenges before society could change significantly over the next 10 to 20 years, and called upon the young officers to remain adaptable, innovative and committed to public service. Omar Abdullah assured the officers that the Government would extend all possible support to help them discharge their responsibilities effectively and overcome difficulties in their professional journey. You will be in the service. You have to take advantage of that stability and assurance and think about how you would like to see Jammu and Kashmir at the end of your service, he said. CM Abdullah said he hoped the officers would live up to the expectations of their parents, families and the people of Jammu and Kashmir. He wished the newly appointed officers success in their careers and urged them to always choose the right path, even when it was difficult. Make the right decision and serve the people of Jammu and Kashmir, the Chief Minister said.

Psychology says people who color just a few streaks of their hair aren't seeking a total transformation: What this behavior reveals?

Psychology says people who color just a few streaks of their hair aren't always seeking a total transformation. The choice can reflect controlled individuality, self-expression, autonomy and identity exploration. Small hair changes can allow people to test a new look while staying within social or workplace boundaries. The behavior can also provide a mood change and help people explore creativity without making a major change to their appearance.

Psychology says people who saw the ChatGPT 80s trend everywhere but still decided to opt out of it arent boring

A trend often feels exciting at first because it is new and relatively uncommon. But when countless versions of the same aesthetic begin appearing across social media feeds, that sense of originality can quickly fade. For someone who values individuality, the reaction may gradually change from That feels creative to This no longer feels unique because everyone is doing it.

Psychology says people who love celebrating their birthdays arent just looking to make the day special

Birthdays have a unique way of making the passage of time feel more noticeable. Unlike an ordinary day, they create clear milestones that divide life into distinct chapters. A person may be 29 one day and 30 the next; while nothing dramatically changes overnight on a biological level, crossing that numerical boundary can carry considerable psychological meaning.

EXCLUSIVE: Susanne Bier on the theatrical experience of Practical Magic 2: Watching a movie with other people is an entirely different experience

For Susanne Bier, the ultimate purpose of Practical Magic 2 extends beyond the story, its supernatural elements or its star-studded cast. The director hopes the film brings audiences together for the kind of communal experience that she believes defines cinema. Bier is particularly passionate about the difference between watching a movie in a theatre and consuming it alone at home. I mean, that is the essence of cinema, and that is why I believe in cinema and why I believe in this movie: watching a movie with other people is an entirely different experience from watching it on your own. For the director, the shared reactions of an audience are an integral part of the cinematic experience. You sit in a room, you share laughter, you share tears, you share a whole lot of things, and you have an experience with other human beings. Bier believes that this collective experience has become even more meaningful at a time when audiences have increasingly easy access to films on personal devices. And watching a movie at home on your computer or even on your phone is the opposite. You can be engaged, but it doesn't have the joy of being with other people doing it. That desire for togetherness is particularly fitting for a film whose central themes revolve around family, sisterhood and love. Throughout her approach to Practical Magic 2, Bier has emphasised that the magic exists to strengthen the human relationships at the heart of the story. Her hope is that those themes translate into an emotional and entertaining theatrical experience. And that's what I hope for with this movie. I want this movie to have lots of people sharing a fun, joyful, at times sad, but most importantly, really engaging experience. That sentiment also encapsulates Bier's broader approach to the sequel. While Practical Magic 2 has the spectacle and supernatural elements audiences expect, the director has deliberately kept its emotional core grounded in human connections. For Bier, the magic works best when it serves those relationshipsand when it gives audiences a reason to laugh, feel and ultimately experience the film together. As the sequel brings Sandra Bullock, Nicole Kidman and the world of the Owens family back to the big screen, Bier's ambition is therefore not simply to recreate the past, but to create a new shared cinematic memory for both longtime fans and a new generation.
