Centuries-old physics test could help detect millicharged particles

Quote of the Day by Tim Allen: Tim Allen's quote, The world's a mean place. It's unfair, then it's fair... captures a difficult truth: life rarely follows a single moral pattern. Good things happen without warning, unfair moments can reshape us, and love can appear where we least expect it. The deeper lesson is not to expect perfect fairness, but to accept life's contradictions without becoming cynical. The quote opens a wider reflection on resilience, human nature, faith, uncertainty and the strange balance between suffering and joy.

'We Were Completely Outplayed,' Admits Smith After Australia's Loss Against Bangladesh
Great Barrier Reef Arena: Australia batter Steve Smith admitted his side was simply outplayed by Bangladesh in all three departments after suffering a historic nine-wicket defeat in the opening Test of the two-match series at Marrara Oval on Sunday. Bangladesh bowled Australia out for 198 in the first innings before posting 426 in reply. The hosts showed some resistance in their second innings, with Cameron Green scoring 104, but were eventually dismissed for 284, leaving Bangladesh with only 57 runs to win. Pretty simple: we were outplayed. I thought Bangladesh bowled really well the first morning, really disciplined. Our batters probably werent disciplined enough, Smith said after Australia suffered their first Test defeat of the series as quoted by The Daily Star. Bangladesh completed the chase in just 14.2 overs, with Mominul Haque remaining unbeaten on 30 and Shadman Islam making 25 not out, to secure their first-ever Test victory on Australian soil. Smith admitted Australia failed to build partnerships despite several batters getting starts. They got too many in front, and we werent able to catch it up yesterday on what was a pretty decent wicket to bat on. A couple of us got starts and didnt go on with it. Greeny, I thought, played really nicely to get a hundred, but he didnt have any partners to go with him, he said. Greens 104 provided Australia with their biggest resistance in the second innings, but Bangladeshs Mehidy Hasan Miraz claimed 5-52 to dismantle the Australian middle and lower order, while Hasan Mahmud finished with match figures of 9-111. Smith felt Australia needed a substantially bigger lead to remain competitive in the Test. We needed probably 200 at least plus to be in the game there, he said. The defeat marked only Australias second Test loss to Bangladesh, with their previous defeat coming in Dhaka in 2017. It also handed Bangladesh a 1-0 lead in the two-match series and ensured they cannot lose the series. Despite the big defeat, Smith backed Australia to bounce back and insisted the result should not overshadow their sustained performances as the worlds top-ranked Test side. I hope its one bad week. Were the number one team for a reason. Weve played really good, consistent cricket over a long period of time, and this week was a bit of a blip, he said. Smith also gave full credit to Bangladesh for their performance throughout the four-day Test. I hope its one bad week. Were the number one team for a reason. Weve played really good, consistent cricket over a long period of time, and this week was a bit of a blip, he said. Also Read: Live Cricket Score The second Test will be played next week at the Great Barrier Reef Arena in Mackay, where Australia will look to level the series, and Bangladesh will aim to complete a historic series victory.

Jammu, Aug 16: Jammu and Kashmir Lieutenant Governor (LG) Manoj Sinha on Sunday said there is no need for people to worry over attempts to disturb peace in the Union Territory, asserting that the administration and security forces are fully committed to maintaining peace. Sinha made the remarks while responding to demands being raised at a programme of displaced Kashmiri Pandits on security for KP employees in the valley due to recent terror incidents. There are many challenges, including the one you mentioned. But I believe there are even bigger challenges that we have to address, the LG said at the annual-day function of the Kashmiri Pandit Volunteers (KPV) here. He said the biggest challenge in the past was the perception that no one would be willing to carry the national flag in Jammu and Kashmir. But you have seen today that there are so many shoulders -- and such strong shoulders -- ready to carry the tricolour. What you have witnessed today is a powerful example of that change, Sinha said. On recent terror incidents and attempts to disturb the peaceful atmosphere in Jammu and Kashmir, he acknowledged that such efforts are being made but asserted that there is no need for people to panic. Attempts are being made to disturb the atmosphere again. There is no need to worry. The necessary concerns are being addressed, and this has not started today, such efforts have been underway for some time, Sinha said. There are also people who spread rumours. I assure you that the administration and security forces are fully committed to maintaining peace. Anyone who attempts to disrupt the prevailing peace will not be allowed to succeed in their designs, he said. On a KP leader's demand on enhancement of relief, the LG said the government is making continuous efforts to resolve issues. I would like to say, with a full sense of responsibility, that efforts have been made to find a solution and these efforts are continuing. While some issues can be resolved, others cannot be addressed immediately. Nevertheless, continuous efforts are being made to resolve all matters that can be addressed at the earliest, he said. The remarks came after KPV founder Vikram Kaul in his address urged the government and the LG not to restore statehood to Jammu and Kashmir, citing security concerns and the challenges facing the Union Territory, to enhance monthly relief and ensure long term security to KP employees in the valley in the wake of terror attacks.

Vajpayee was an 'Ajatshatru' who never compromised on principles: Amit Shah
Jaipur, Aug 16: Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Sunday described former prime minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee as an Ajatshatru, who had no enemy and never compromised on his principles. He said that Vajpayee remained committed to his ideology during his time in the Opposition as well as while in power. Shah was addressing a public meeting in Chittorgarh's Nimbahera after unveiling a statue of Vajpayee. Atal Bihari Vajpayee remained in the Opposition for 40 years, but his ideology always remained paramount. He lived his life according to his principles, Shah said. Vajpayee went to jail, faced lathi charges and endured the atrocities of the Congress, but never compromised on his principles, he added. Shah mentioned that when Vajpayee became prime minister, he became the country's first non-Congress prime minister and took several major decisions. Despite global pressure, he made India a nuclear power through the Pokhran tests, the Home Minister said, adding that Vajpayee also worked to connect every village with roads. He noted that the former prime minister launched the Swarn Chaturbhuj project, expanded the national highway network and introduced several initiatives during his tenure. Shah also credited Vajpayee with establishing a separate ministry for tribal development, saying there had previously been no dedicated ministry for the welfare of tribal communities. The beginning made by Atal ji has been taken to its conclusion by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Shah said, referring to the BJP government's initiatives for tribal welfare. He said the election of Droupadi Murmu, who comes from a tribal background, as the President of India was a reflection of the progress made in this regard. Neither did he leave his principles while in power nor while in the Opposition. That is why he is known as 'Ajatshatru' -- a great man who had no enemies, Shah said.
