Ancient cut marks on mammoth bones unearthed on a remote island in the frozen extremes of Siberia are the northernmost evidence of Paleolithic humans ever found, according to archaeologists. The bones from the woolly mammoth skeleton, dated to about 26,000 years ago, were excavated this summer by a Russian expedition to Kotelny Island, in the far northeast of Siberia — 615 miles (990 kilometers) north of the Arctic Circle. The team pieced together more than two-thirds of the skeleton — and they found cut marks and notches, made by stone or bone tools, on almost every bone. That indicates the animal was deliberately butchered, probably after it was hunted down by a nomadic band of Stone Age hunters, the archaeologists said. Related: Back to the Stone Age: 17 key milestones in Paleolithic life It's the northernmost evidence of Paleolithic humans ever found, said expedition leader Alexander Kandyba, an archaeologist at the Institute of Archaeology and Ethnography at the Russian Academy of Sciences' Siberian branch. "This suggests that the northern border of human existence in the Pleistocene was much to the north of the generally accepted ideas," Kandyba told Live Science in an email, referring to the Pleistocene epoch between 2.6 million and 11,700 years ago — the time of the last ice age. Until now, the northernmost traces of Stone Age humans came from the valley of the Yana River in the Yakutia region of Siberia, and dated to between 27,000 and 29,000 years ago, he said. "The discovery of this site makes it possible to move the northern border of the existence of ancient man and the development of the territory by him in the Pleistocene by almost 600 kilometers [370 miles] to the north," he said. Mammoth bon Kotelny Island is the largest of the New Siberian Islands, which are located between the Laptev Sea and the East Siberian Sea, about 150 miles (250 km) off the northern coast of East Siberia. At the time the mammoth was killed, the sea level was lower, and so Kotelny Island was joined to the mainland. The climate was also milder, although temperatures were still near or below freezing for most of the year. Related: Mammoth resurrection: 11 hurdles to bringing back an ice age beast Archaeologists previously found the fossilized remains of trees on the island, but it's too cold for them to grow there today. Kandyba’s team discovered the mammoth bones on Kotelny Island in 2019, but it was only during the expedition in July of this year that they could be fully excavated, he said. Stone Age hunters The team didn't find any of the tools that caused the marks, but they did find a large number of ivory shavings and chips that indicated that ancient people had carved into the mammoth tusks. They also found two ivory tools made from the tusks: a small spatula and a strange object that looks somewhat like a squeegee; archaeologists are still trying to determine what it was used for, Kandyba said. From the bones, the archaeologists gleaned other clues about the lifestyle of the Stone Age hunters. For a start, it seems clear that they hunted mammoths, although other archaeologists have suggested Paleolithic hunters may have avoided such large and dangerous prey in favor of smaller animals, such as reindeer. "I think people hunted all kinds of animals at that time," Kandyba said. There was no sign that the mammoth had been trapped before it was killed — a method some archaeologists suggest such hunters may have used. "The fact that the skeleton of the mammoth was located on the slope of an ancient terrace suggests that the animal was definitely killed in the open air, and not in a mud trap," he said. The findings from the latest research on the mammoth skeleton and the evidence that it was butchered by Stone Age humans are now being prepared for publication in a scientific journal, Kandyba said.

The new Mitsubishi Outlander will again have a plug-in-hybrid version. Unlike the current Outlander PHEV, the new model will have a third-row seat. The Outlander PHEV will arrive in the U.S. in the second half of calendar-year 2022, likely as a 2023 model. UPDATE 10/1/21: Mitsubishi has shared another photo of the upcoming plug-in-hybrid version of the Outlander. Its styling looks to be identical to the nonhybrid model, with the main differentiators being a charging port on the right rear fender and a hybrid badge.The company also detailed the hybrid's all-wheel-drive system, which will use two electric motors, one powering the front wheels and one powering the rear wheels. It will offer seven drive modes, including Normal, Gravel, Snow, Power, and Eco settings. Mitsubishi is currently selling the previous-generation Outlander plug-in hybrid alongside the redesigned nonhybrid 2022 Outlander, but that will change next year when a PHEV version based on the new model arrives in the U.S. Mitsubishi shared two photos of the new hybrid and shared a few tidbits of information about this new model, saying that it will go on sale in the U.S. in the second half of 2022. The new Outlander hybrid's gas-electric powertrain will have a more powerful electric motor and a larger battery capacity, which should give it more electric driving range than the current car's EPA rating of 24 miles on battery power. Mitsubishi also says that the packaging of the new platform allows for a third-row seat in the hybrid model, which gives it the same seven-passenger seating capacity as the nonhybrid.

The hack A natural powder made from household items to reduce friction, absorb perspiration and prevent chafing on the body. The promise Anytime our skin rubs against itself, especially if we’re sweaty, the friction can cause irritation and soreness – particularly between the thighs. DIY beauty enthusiasts say we can avoid pricey sports balms, dusting powders or sweat-wicking creams, which draw moisture away from the body, and look instead in our kitchen cupboards. The test My research found two DIY anti-chafe remedies: cornflour – corn milled to a silky powder – and arrowroot, a thickening agent made from a tropical plant. Using an old face-powder brush, I daubed a little of each powder between my thighs. The mix worked well on a brisk walk to the shops but it couldn’t contend with an hour of tennis: I’d applied it underneath my sports bra, but it congealed with my sweat to make a sort-of “underboob” paste. The verdict On a warm day, I felt zero thigh chafe, but it left an unfortunate white gunge all over my clothes. Worse, cornflour and arrowroot are sugars, which can trigger yeast production (unless they’re cosmetic-grade or preserved). So when a friend said I smelled “a bit like sourdough”, that sent me straight back to my dusting powder.

US President Joe Biden has suffered a setback after Congress delayed a vote on a $1tn (£750bn) infrastructure plan. Part of his Democratic Party refuses to move forward with the plan until Congress signs off on a separate $3.5tn plan on welfare and climate change. That plan is at the heart of the party's agenda for government and passions are high among its liberal (progressive) and centrist wings. Centrists want to scale the legislation back radically. The $1tn public works bill, which would apply to routine transportation, broadband, water systems and other projects, enjoys wide support but liberal Democrats are linking it to their more ambitious welfare and climate change bill. That bill would raise taxes on corporations and the rich, investing the revenue in a broad array of social programmes, including early childhood education, universal preschool, government-funded two-year college education, paid family and medical leave, an expansion of government health insurance and environmental spending. The biggest test of Biden's presidency so far President Biden and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi have been trying to reconcile the liberals with the centrists. Reflecting the centrist position, Senator Joe Manchin said he was ready to meet the president less than halfway, at $1.5tn. He described the proposed figure of $3.5tn as "fiscal insanity". Sen Bernie Sanders, a leading liberal, said the issue was "not a baseball game" but "the most significant piece of legislation in 70 years". A fellow liberal, Representative Ilhan Omar, said: "Trying to kill your party's agenda is insanity. Not trying to make sure the president we all worked so hard to elect, his agenda pass, is insanity." The House will be back in session on Friday when efforts to push through the bills will resume. "We are not there yet, and so, we will need some additional time to finish the work, starting tomorrow morning first thing," White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki said in a statement on Thursday. Mr Biden's party has the thinnest of majorities in both the House and Senate, and is eager to push through its signature policies before next year's congressional elections, when the Republicans attempt to regain control. On Thursday Congress did pass a temporary measure to keep the federal government funded until early December. Federal museums, national parks and safety programmes would have had to close without the funding, which also includes hurricane relief and help for Afghan refugees.

As we wait for Intel to launch its 12th Generation Alder Lake processors, Chinese merchants (via Yuuki_AnS) are already selling engineering samples on Taobao. Since we're approaching the rumored November 4 (previously November 19) launch date, sellers are probably taking the opportunity to offload the illegal samples. The Taobao seller advertised the Core i9-12900K samples as an ES2 chips, meaning that these are very close to the final retail samples. We already know that the flaghship Alder Lake part wields 16 cores in total, consisting of eight Golden Cove cores and eight Gracemont cores. The listing exposes a clock speed between 4 GHz and 5 GHz, which falls in line with the leaked specifications. The Core i9-12900K has been rumored to arrive with a 3.2 GHz base clock and 5.3 GHz boost clock and a 30MB L3 cache. The chip will obviously slot into the new LGA1700 socket and offer DDR5 and PCIe 5.0 support. Performance-wise, the Core i9-12900K will bring some surprises to the table. However, early benchmarks showed that the Core i9-12900K will struggle to beat the Core i9-11900K (Rocket Lake) processor in some workloads. As a matter of fact, the Core i9-12900K doesn't even look very convincing beside AMD's Ryzen 9 5900X, which outperforms the heterogeneous flagship by a significant margin in many workloads. It's not the first time that we've seen the Core i9-12900K on sale in China. A previous merchant was flipping Core i9-12900K qualification samples for up to $1,250. This Taobao merchant, on the other hand, is only asking $700 for his ES2 processors. One particular U.S. retailer listed the Core i9-12900K for $604.89 so even that ES2 processor isn't even a deal. It doesn't make sense to pick up any Alder Lake chips right now since there aren't motherboards available to house these hybrid processors. Surprisingly, not even the Chinese black market has any Intel 600-series motherboards

A young wallaby has escaped into the countryside just a day after arriving at a petting zoo in Aberdeenshire. Eddie, who is about six months old, only arrived at Waulkmill Menagerie, near New Deer, on Sunday. However, he escaped through a small hole in a fence on Monday. Nikki Johnstone, who runs the attraction, said he was spotted outside a pub in New Deer and was last seen heading north in the direction of Cuminestown and Turriff. 'Worried sick' "He'll be fine with grass and whatever plants he can forage", she told BBC Scotland "The cold is a bit of a worry factor because he is so little, he would need a heat lamp during our winters." Miss Johnstone said Eddie was no threat as he was not aggressive to humans or other animals, and advised anyone who spotted him to close him in and close the area if they could. "We can't chase him through a field, he's way too fast for that", she said. "We're just spreading the word, and have contacted drone people. "I'm totally gutted and just worried sick for him - just needing him home." Link:https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-scotland-north-east-orkney-shetland-58663052

Jeep has revealed the two-row version of the new Grand Cherokee. The 2022 Grand Cherokee will offer a plug-in-hybrid model called 4xe. There's also a Trailhawk off-road trim level that can be combined with the hybrid powertrain. The Jeep Grand Cherokee has classically been a mid-size SUV with two rows of seats. But Jeep flipped the script with the latest generation, introducing the fifth-generation SUV's redesign first with a new three-row L model. The company is now getting around to launching the standard-wheelbase version of the new model, and the 2022 Grand Cherokee will arrive in the U.S. later this year to replace the outgoing 2021 two-row model that's currently being sold alongside the new Grand Cherokee L. The two-row Grand Cherokee has a five-inch shorter wheelbase than the three-row model, and it's nearly a foot shorter in overall length. But the styling is similar to the Grand Cherokee L's aside from some trim differences and unique wheel designs. The rear end looks a bit sleeker and features a floating pillar design. Inside, the biggest difference is the seating setup. A three-place second-row bench makes for five-passenger capacity, and neither a third row nor second-row captain's chairs are available like you'll find in the L. The dashboard is otherwise similar and offers a digital gauge cluster as standard along with central infotainment screens ranging from 8.4 to 10.1 inches depending on trim level. There's even an optional screen available for the front passenger that can display functions including audio and navigation. The two-row model also differentiates itself with a broader lineup that includes an off-road Trailhawk model and a 4xe plug-in-hybrid variant. These two configurations can even be combined into a single Grand Cherokee that offers the opportunity for electric driving in off-road settings. We've detailed the 4xe powertrain separately, but the basics are the same as in the Wrangler 4xe: a total of 375 horsepower and 470 pound-feet from a turbocharged 2.0-liter inline-four gasoline engine plus two electric motors. Jeep claims an electric driving range estimate of 25 miles on a full charge. The nonhybrid powertrains are the same for the two-row and three-row models. A 3.6-liter V-6 with 293 horsepower and 260 pound-feet of torque is standard, while a 5.7-liter V-8 with 357 hp and 390 pound-feet of torque is optional. Rear-wheel drive is standard with the V-6 and a choice of several different four-wheel-drive systems are optional, while the V-8 comes only with four-wheel drive. An eight-speed automatic is standard across the board. The trim levels comprise Laredo, Limited, Trailhawk, Overland, and Summit, with the V-8 optional on the latter three models. The 4xe hybrid setup is available on all but the base Laredo. There's a wide range of equipment levels contained within the broad lineup, with the Laredo making do with cloth seats, 17-inch wheels, and black plastic exterior trim and the Summit loading up with tons of chrome, 20-inch wheels, fancy leather upholstery, and a McIntosh audio system. Many driver-assistance features are standard equipment, with the notable optional systems including a 360-degree camera system, drowsy driver detection, and a night-vision camera. A trailer-towing package is also optional; the V-6 can tow up to 6200 pounds, the V-8 up to 7200 pounds, and the 4xe up to 6000 pounds. The only versions of the Grand Cherokee that earn Jeep's "Trail Rated" badge are the Overland with an optional off-road package and the Trailhawk. The Trailhawk features Goodyear Wrangler Territory all-terrain tires, an air suspension with increased ground clearance, and the most sophisticated four-wheel-drive system called Quadra-Drive II that has a transfer case and an electronic limited-slip rear differential. It also has skid plates, red tow hooks (blue if you opt for the 4xe), and a hood decal. Jeep has yet to announce prices for the 2022 Grand Cherokee lineup, but we expect it to start a few thousand dollars lower than the Grand Cherokee L, which ranges from $40,570 for the base Laredo up to $64,194 for a Summit Reserve. Nonhybrid models will go on sale first, in the fourth quarter of 2021, while the Grand Cherokee 4xe will arrive in the U.S. in early 2022.

Name: Screen time. Age: It’s less about how old, more about how long. OK, how long then? Twenty minutes. Great. But what is 20 minutes? Enough. Enough what? Screen time. Ah. Says who? Meghan’n’Harry. Where, when, how, why? On their Archewell website, a message … Whoa, hold up, their Archewell website? Yes, it’s where you can keep an eye on what the Duke and Duchess of Sussex are doing. What are they doing? Uplifting and uniting communities – local and global, online and offline – one act of compassion at a time, or so the website says. But for no more than 20 minutes at a time? Exactly. Not online anyway. Go on the site and after 20 minutes an automated message pops up. “We love having you here,” it says. “But we’re mindful of screen time. Why not take a break? We’ll be here.” It sits nicely with what the Centre for Humane Technology says. What is that? And what does it say? One of Archewell’s partners. It is reframing the insidious effects of persuasive technology, exposing the runaway systems beneath and deepening the capacity of global decision-makers and everyday leaders to take wise action, it says here. Does that mean less screen time? We think it includes that, yes. Meghan and Harry seem to as well. What about the people who actually know? As you would expect, there has been tons of research into the effects of screen time on health, eyesight, sleep and mental health, with added concern during the pandemic, when screen time increased. But a recent study by the University of Colorado Boulder found that school-age kids who spend more time in front of screens are only slightly more likely to have attention disorders, disturbed sleep and are no more likely to suffer from depression or anxiety. Any government guidelines? Not in the UK. The US government recommends no more than two hours a day for children. Hang on, are kids really going to be glued to the Sussex’s Archewell site? Aren’t they more likely to be on TikTok, or Minecraft? Probably true, but grownups need screen breaks, too. The UK law says so if we’re talking about using a screen at work (it doesn’t specify for how long or how often). Everyone agrees that screen breaks are a good thing. Do say: “C’mon now, Archie, off mummy’s phone now. Let’s put some compassion into action, change our communities and change the world!” Don’t say: “William and Kate say similar things about making a difference on their website and I can actually understand what they are on about.” Link:-https://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2021/sep/27/screen-time-are-harry-and-meghan-right-to-limit-it-to-just-20-minutes

Fumio Kishida has won a race to lead Japan's ruling Liberal Democratic Party (LDP), putting him on course to become the next prime minister. Mr Kishida will succeed Yoshihide Suga, who decided to step down after just one year in office. His first mission as prime minister will be to lead the LDP to victory in an upcoming general election. The party's po[CENSORED]rity fell after it pushed to host the Tokyo Olympics despite public opposition. Mr Kishida, a former foreign minister, beat out Taro Kono, who was widely regarded as the most po[CENSORED]r candidate. Given the LDP's majority in parliament, Mr Kishida's position as prime minister has been all but cemented. Japan's Suga to step down as prime minister Mr Kishida, 64, has long targeted the prime ministerial role, losing out to Mr Suga in last year's poll. The new prime minister faces a range of tough issues including post-pandemic economic recovery and confronting threats from North Korea. He has called for a "health crisis management agency" to be established in order to deal with the pandemic and backs the idea of passing a resolution condemning China's treatment of the Uyghur minority. "My skill is to really listen to people," Mr Kishida said after securing his win. "I'm determined to make efforts with everyone for an open LDP and a bright future for Japan". Mr Suga decided to step down as prime minister after a year in office due to plummeting poll ratings caused by the handling of the pandemic. Who is Fumio Kishida? Mr Kishida, 64, hails from a political family. Both his father and grandfather were members of the country's House of Representatives He became the longest-serving foreign minister when he held the post between 2012 and 2017 A Hiroshima native, he opposes the use of nuclear weapons, having seen the impact on his home town Mr Kishida arranged President Barack Obama's 2016 visit to Hiroshima, the first visit to the bombed city by a sitting US president Japan's 100th prime minister by Mariko Oi, BBC News, Japan High-profile minister Taro Kono, known for his frank replies to his 2.5 million Twitter followers, was seen by Japanese voters as the frontrunner. But he lost, and instead former foreign minister Fumio Kishida was chosen by the party. He will become the country's 100th prime minister when parliament holds an extraordinary session on 4 October. Mr Kishida comes from a family of politicians. He is known as a moderate-liberal politician so he's expected to steer the ruling conservative party slightly to the left. While his critics describe him as bland and boring, he's long been seen within the party as its future leader. And most crucially, unlike Mr Kono, he had the backing of the party's veteran politicians. He's promised to spend billions of dollars to help the world's third-biggest economy recover from Covid restrictions. Unlike another rival, Sanae Takaichi, he has been more critical of the economic policy of former prime minister Shinzo Abe, known as Abenomics, saying that only the rich got richer. With China also high on the agenda for the leadership election, Mr Kishida has accused Beijing of wanting to export "its authoritarian system". Ahead of Japan's general election, voters will be watching how he aims to balance relations with the US and China. Link:-https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-58729765

A herd of amorous goats have been saved after rescuers built a stairway made of hay bales from the bottom of a cliff. Two in-season female goats were chased off the Great Orme headland in Llandudno, Conwy county, by 18 frisky billy goats, the RSPCA said. A kid goat also became stranded until the charity and council workers built a tiered walk-way of 50 hay bales. RSPCA inspector Mike Pugh said: "Had a rescue plan not been hatched, these goats would have starved or drowned." The wild herd of about 122 Kashmiri goats spend most of their time on the cliffs of the Great Orme, a county park and nature reserve in Conwy county, but have been known to frequent the town during bad weather. Missed contraception sees town's frisky goats boom Covid therapy from llamas shows promise Seaside suburb in worldwide photo collaboration The goats were spotted on the unstable rocks near the sea, known locally as Austin's Rock, before the weekend. But all 21 have now walked back to safety thanks to the "innovative rescue mission". "These goats were in real trouble as there was no grazing or palatable water and they were at risk from the tide at the next spring tide later this week," said Mr Pugh. "The plan was hatched to create a walk-way off the rocks for the goats and back to safety - so we made a tiered path and, fortunately, the goats gradually made their way back. "It's a huge relief as the alternative for these animals was unthinkable. "We're delighted we have been able to help in what was an innovative rescue mission and a really good example of what can be achieved together for animal welfare." The Kashmiri goats have roamed the Great Orme for more than a century but made headlines after venturing from into the seaside town of Llandudno at the start of lockdown. However some have been moved to other towns amid concerns their numbers will grow out of control after not getting contraception injections due to the coronavirus pandemic.

Ford will create Blue Oval City, a $5.6 billion, 3600-acre campus outside Memphis, Tennessee, that includes a battery plant and will build an expanded lineup of electric F-series trucks starting in 2025. Ford is also building a $5.8 billion, 1500-acre battery manufacturing complex in Kentucky to produce the batteries for future Ford and Lincoln EVs starting in 2025. The battery plants are part of a new joint venture, still pending approval, with partner SK Innovation. The Ford Mustang Mach-E launched earlier this year has been a strong seller so far, and the F-150 Lightning revealed this summer garnered so much interest that Ford is already preparing to double the electric truck’s production for 2024. Now Ford has announced that it will, together with energy company SK Innovation, invest $11.4 billion into its electric future, including building an all-new factory to produce the next generation of electric F-Series trucks. These future electric F-Series models will be the product of Blue Oval City, a $5.6 billion, 3600-acre campus that Ford will build in Stanton, Tennessee, outside of Memphis. Ford says Blue Oval City will be vertically integrated for building “an expanded lineup of electric F-Series vehicles,” suggesting that electric powertrains could proliferate throughout the F-Series range, including perhaps the Super Duty lineup, by the time the plant is operational in 2025. The campus will also include a battery plant built with SK Innovation, spaces for important suppliers, and recycling facilities. The new plant is expected to create around 6000 new jobs and is designed to be carbon neutral, minimize landfill waste, and make zero freshwater withdrawals for manufacturing processes by treating and recycling water on-site. Ford will also work with Redwood Materials, a battery materials company, on recycling batteries once they’ve reached the end of their life. Ford will also build a $5.8 billion, 1500-acre battery manufacturing complex with SK Innovation in Glendale, Kentucky called BlueOvalSK Battery Park. The two plants on the site will assemble batteries for the next generation of Ford and Lincoln EVs and are expected to create 5000 jobs. The first plant will open in 2025 with the second factory starting production the following year. Ford is also investing $525 million across the United States over five years to train the next generation of automotive technicians to work on connected, electric vehicles. Of the overall $11.4 billion investment, Ford is contributing $7 billion, the largest investment in manufacturing in the company’s history. The investments in the battery plants in Tennessee and Kentucky will, pending approvals, be made via a new joint venture between Ford and SK Innovation called BlueOvalSK. These new manufacturing sites are a major step towards Ford’s electric future, with the company predicting that 40 to 50 percent of its global vehicle output will be electric by 2030.

hen Frances finished school, she took a college course in cartography, the study of maps. By May 1972, she had found a job as a cartographer with the civil service. As part of her work, she went to Delft in the Netherlands to visit the Dutch equivalent of Ordnance Survey. At the time, Kingston upon Thames (where she had studied) was twinned with Delft, a city in South Holland, and residents of the two regions were encouraged to do exchange visits, where they would stay with local families to get to know the area. Frances agreed to go, even thought she was terrified. “I was 20 and it was my first time out of the country. I didn’t speak a word of Dutch,” she says. Frances soon discovered she would be staying with Rien, who lived with his parents and siblings. When she arrived at the town hall, he was there to pick her up. They were introduced by the mayor of Kingston and the burgemeester of Delft. “My instant reaction was that she was beautiful and I needed to get to know her. It was love at first sight for me,” he says. She was grateful that he was able to speak English and over the course of the next week a friendship blossomed. “He was friendly and handsome, but it was just friendship for me at first,” she says. “I’m more pragmatic than romantic.” They kept in touch via letter until Rien was able to visit England in July on the same exchange programme. “I turned up with two bunches of flowers, but her mum and grandmother were there, so I gave the flowers to them.” Frances says they were “really pleased” with the gifts. As they got to know each other better, Frances wondered if there could be more between them than friendship. “It was hard staying in touch via letters,” she says. “In August 1973, I decided to go to the Netherlands and live nearby, to see if things would develop further.” It quickly became clear that they would. At the end of that year, the couple got engaged. They married in 1974 and Rien left to do compulsory national service, but he was discharged on medical grounds after four months, due to allergies. “We were living in this tiny attic room in Voorburg,” remembers Frances. They soon decided it would be better to move to the UK, so that Frances could return to her job. By 1976, they had moved to Chessington, in Kingston, where Rien found work as a translator. “I also lost my hearing that year, but thanks to the NHS I was given one of the first hearing aids that fits behind the ear,” he says. Their children were born in 1979 and 1981. They moved to Essex two years later, where Rien started a career in IT. As a couple, they love travelling and sports, regularly going to cricket and rugby matches. When their grandson was born, in 2012, they moved to Leicestershire, where they stayed happily until the Brexit referendum. “I had hoped pragmatism would prevail on both sides, but it didn’t. I started feeling insecure and I told Frances I didn’t want to live in the UK for the rest of my life,” says Rien. Frances agreed to try living in mainland Europe and, after a brief stint in the Netherlands, they found a beautiful home in the Dordogne region of France in 2019. “There’s lots of expats from all over Europe living in this area,” says Frances. “We weren’t able to do much in lockdown, but now I’m starting my French classes again.” Rien appreciates the fact that Frances left England for him. “We’re such great friends and I don’t think we’d still be together now if we weren’t,” he says. “We’ve built this connection over many years and we have the ability to talk to each other about anything.” Frances also believes their partnership and close friendship is what makes their relationship successful. … we have a small favour to ask.

India and Pakistan have traded barbs at the United Nations with Prime Minister Imran Khan slamming India for a "reign of terror" on Muslims, at which an angry New Delhi resorted to level terror allegations at Islamabad. Addressing the 76th session of the United Nations General Assembly, PM Imran Khan spoke of Prime Minister Narendra Modi's plan to "purge India of Muslims". "The worst and most pervasive form of Islamophobia now rules India," Khan said in an address, delivered by video due to COVID-19 precautions. "The hate-filled Hindutva ideology, propagated by the fascist RSS-BJP regime, has unleashed a reign of fear and violence against India's 200 million-strong Muslim community," he said. PM Imran Khan was referring to Modi's Bharatiya Janata Party and the affiliated Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh, a century-old Hindu revivalist movement with a paramilitary component. Under Modi, India has rescinded the statehood of Kashmir, its only Muslim-majority region, pushed through a citizenship law that critics call discriminatory and has witnessed repeated flare-ups of religious-based violence. Speaking on the day Modi was visiting the White House, PM Imran Khan — who has yet to speak to President Joe Biden — said that commercial interests with billion-plus India were allowing it to "get away with human rights abuses with complete impunity." Responding to the premier's fiery speech, India’s First Secretary at the General Assembly Sneha Dubey exercised the right to respond and accused Pakistan of sheltering terrorists. "This is the country which is an arsonist disguising itself as a firefighter," she said. "Pakistan nurtures terrorists in their backyard in the hope that they will only harm their neighbours." "Unlike Pakistan, India is a pluralistic democracy with a substantial po[CENSORED]tion of minorities who have gone on to hold highest offices in the country," Dubey claimed. She said that Jammu and Kashmir and Ladakh “were, are and will always be an integral and inalienable part of India”. She emphasised that this includes the areas that are "occupied" by Pakistan, per the report. Kashmir not India's 'integral part' Meanwhile, exercising the right of reply in response to the Indian representative's allegations, Pakistani representative Saima Saleem said Jammu and Kashmir is "neither a so-called integral part of India nor is it India's internal matter". The Pakistani representative said India remains in occupation of an internationally recognised disputed territory, whose final disposition needs to be decided in accordance with the democratic principles of a plebiscite under the resolutions of the UN Security Council. In order to divert attention from the ever-increasing international condemnation of India’s widespread and escalating human rights abuses in India-occupied Jammu and Kashmir, New Delhi continues to level baseless allegations and rely on outright lies and obfuscation, she said. "India’s compulsive obsession with Pakistan is neither new nor surprising. It has permeated its ruling elite and governance structures," the representative noted. "But there is a method to this obsession as it underpins India’s electoral and foreign policy under the ruling RSS-BJP 'Hindutva' inspired government," she said. The representative said the EU Disinfo Lab had graphically revealed how India has deployed such tools of deflection, deception and disinformation against Pakistan, including at the United Nations. India’s violations of human rights in occupied Jammu and Kashmir are well documented in the two reports of the High Commissioner on Human Rights, the representative said. Pakistan's dossier Since August 5, 2019, the High Commissioner has urged India to “unlock the situation and fully restore the rights that are currently being denied” to the people of India-occupied Kashmir, she said. "Major human rights organisations, including Human Rights Watch and Amnesty International, have expressed similar serious concerns about India’s human rights violations, including in occupied Jammu and Kashmir," she said. "In fact, a witch hunt has been launched against those who dare to report these crimes. Only last year, Amnesty International ceased work in India citing constant harassment at the hands of the government," she said. The representative highlighted that Pakistan had recently released a comprehensive and well-researched dossier containing the entire range of gross, systematic, and widespread violations of human rights being perpetrated by Indian security forces in the occupied territory. "We call upon the international community to take cognisance of the compelling evidence and hold India accountable for the heinous crimes," she said. If India has nothing to hide, it must accept a UN Commission of Inquiry and agree to implement the Security Council resolutions sti[CENSORED]ting a plebiscite to enable the people of Jammu and Kashmir to exercise their right to self-determination, she added. India's 'four types of terrorism' The representative said India was involved in at least four different types of terrorism. First, India is resorting to “state terrorism” to suppress the people of India-occupied Jammu and Kashmir, she said. "Since 1989, Indian occupying forces have killed more than 96,000 Kashmiris, widowed around 23,000 women, used rape as weapon of war, and orphaned more than 108,000 children," she noted. Second, it is funding and supporting terrorist organisations like the TTP which are involved in numerous cross-border terrorist attacks against the Pakistani military and civilian targets, she said. Third, India is financing and organising mercenary terrorist organisations against Pakistan to impede the economic growth and prosperity of the region, the representative said. "India’s National Security Advisor (NSA), Mr Ajit Doval, has publicly admitted supporting and financing of such mercenaries," the representative said, noting arrested Indian spy, Kulbhushan Jadhav, had also confessed to organising such terrorism in Pakistan. Fourth, India is being guided by a supremacist ideology that has mainstreamed Islamophobia and bigotry against minorities particularly Muslims in its political discourse, she added. 'Concerted campaign to destroy Muslim heritage' In today’s incredibly intolerant India, the 200 million-strong Muslim minority faces frequent lynching by ‘cow vigilantes’; pogroms by RSS thugs, with official complicity; discriminatory citizenship laws to disenfranchise Muslims; and a concerted campaign to destroy mosques and the rich Muslim heritage of India, the representative said. "The Indian delegation would do well to reflect on the deeply troubling trajectory their state is embarked upon, rather than indulging in patent falsehoods about Pakistan," she said. "India must realise that it has continuously and miserably failed to suppress the Kashmiris living under its occupation from demanding their inalienable right to self-determination," Saleem added.
