Haleem Adil Sheikh alleges he was tortured, strangled in custody **#HaleemAdil #Sheikh #alleges** **#tortured #strangled #custody** PTI leader Haleem Adil Sheikh. Prosecution claims Haleem didn’t cooperate in investigation. Haleem Adil Sheikh alleges he was tortured, strangled in police station. Says “I am not a terrorist but was isolated in terrorists’ cell for 10 days.” KARACHI: A court on Tuesday rejected a plea seeking physical remand of Leader of the Opposition in the Sindh Assembly Haleem Adil Sheikh in a land-grabbing case. The court sent Sheikh into judicial custody while directing the anti-encroachment officials to submit the case challan at the next hearing. Sheikh, who is also a PTI leader, has been under arrest for over a month for allegedly grabbing 25 acres of government land. He alleges that he was tortured and strangled in detention. During the hearing, the court inquired from the investigation officer (IO) on why he held Sheikh by his collar. The IO responded in the negative and said that he could only grab Sheikh’s shirt to save him as he was falling. Sheikh’s lawyer maintained that the FIR against the politician was lodged by a tapedar and there is not a single private witness in the case. “My client is being linked to land grabbers. The leader of the Opposition is not arrested without the Assembly speaker’s permission,” he said. While giving arguments, the prosecutor said that a notice was served to Haleem after the registration of the case against him but he didn’t cooperate in the investigation. He requested the court to remand Haleem into police custody for investigating strong evidence against him. ‘Tortured, strangled at police station’: Haleem Adil Sheikh A video of Sheikh from the hearing surfaced on Twitter where he was seen alleging that he was tortured and strangled in jail. “They didn’t give me a single thing to eat for two days. I am not a terrorist but was isolated in the terrorists’ cell for 10 days,” Sheikh said in the video while showing a bruise on his leg. He said that he has a rod in his leg due to which he has a puss infection, but is not being given medical treatment for it. Sheikh protested that he was arrested from prison in a new case. Haleem Adil Sheikh arrested from Jamshoro The Anti-corruption Establishment, Sindh (ACE) had arrested Sheikh in a property transfer case on July 27. The PTI leader went to the anti-corruption’s office in Jamshoro to record his statement in a case pertaining to allegedly raising a loan from a bank on the basis of fake property documents. The institution, as he recorded the statement in the office of Deputy Director ACE Zeeshan Memon, arrested him, according to sources. This was the second time in the same month that the ACE arrested Sheikh in the case. The ACE had arrested Sheikh on July 6 from Lahore, but later, the Lahore High Court (LHC) ruled the detention of the opposition leader in the Sindh Assembly to be “unlawful” and granted him protective bail

Last handful of fish: Crisis pushes more Sri Lankans into poverty
Nilanthi Gunasekera, 49, poses with a handful of dried fish, the only protein her family will have until next week, amid the country’s economic crisis, in Colombo, Sri Lanka, August 8, 2022. “Before the economic crisis, we ate well and we served meat or fish to our kids at least three or four times a week. Now fish is out of the reach of our family and so is meat,” said Gunasekera.— Reuters
COLOMBO: In her outstretched palms, 49-year-old Nilanthi Gunasekera holds her family’s last remaining handful of dried fish – a reminder of Sri Lanka’s worst economic crisis in decades.
She is just one of the millions of Sri Lankans battling a calamitous decline in living standards, as they find themselves forced to skip meals, ration out medicines and turn to firewood in place of cooking gas.
“Now fish is out of the reach of our family, and so is meat,” Gunasekera said, grasping the shards of fish. “For two weeks we couldn’t afford any meat or fish. This is our last protein.”
Manel Peiris, 68, poses in her kitchen, amid the countrys economic crisis, in Colombo, Sri Lanka, August 2, 2022. I am a heart patient and have to take medicine every day, she said. Hospitals used to issue medicine for three months. But with the onset of the economic crisis, hospitals dont have medicine and so we are asked to buy from pharmacies. But one months cost is around Rs 3,400 which I cant afford, so I buy only for one week at a time. Sometimes my husband has to borrow or get an advance from his workplace. — Reuters

Hit hard by the COVID-19 pandemic, rising oil prices and economic mismanagement under previous governments, the island nation is in the throes of its starkest crisis since independence from Britain in 1948.
Rampant inflation, snaking fuel queues and shortages of essentials such as food and medicine have driven many Sri Lankans into poverty, while months of street protests ousted the previous president, Gotabaya Rajapaksa, in July.
More than a quarter of the population of 22 million is now struggling to secure adequate, nutritious food, the United Nations says.
“We really can’t afford to buy a gas cylinder or a cooker,” Gunasekera said, after thieves broke into her home and stole the family’s cooker and gas cylinder a few months ago. “So now we are forced to cook with firewood.”
As desperation grows, the government of President Ranil Wickremesinghe is seeking a multi

6.1-magnitude quake strikes off Indonesia’s Sumatra island

Indonesia’s meteorology and geophysics agency says shallow quake did not trigger tsunami warning.
Says there were no reports of casualties but there was minor damage to buildings on Siberut island.
Three consecutive earthquakes hit island with increasing intensity since early hours of Monday.
JAKARTA: A 6.1-magnitude earthquake struck off the coast of Indonesia’s Sumatra island, the third tremor to rattle the area since early Monday, according to the country’s geophysics agency.
Indonesia’s meteorology and geophysics agency (BMKG) recorded the shallow quake off the Mentawai islands, off Sumatra’s west coast just before 10.30am and said it did not trigger a tsunami warning.
The agency had earlier recorded a magnitude of 6.4 but revised that to 6.1, a BMKG spokesperson said.
Three consecutive earthquakes struck the area with increasing intensity since the early hours of Monday, with a 5.2-magnitude tremor recorded before dawn, followed by a 5.4-magnitude quake less than an hour later.
The 6.1-magnitude earthquake was felt strongly for several seconds by residents in the Mentawai islands, in the provincial capital of Padang, and in the surrounding mountainous area of Bukitinggi, the disaster agency said in a statement.
The agency said there were no reports of casualties but there was minor damage to buildings on Siberut island.
Separately, Novriadi, a local disaster official in the Mentawai islands, told Reuters that residents in several villages had been evacuated to higher ground and a local church, school and health facility had been slightly damaged.
The disaster agency urged the public not to panic and warned of the potential for aftershocks.
Padang was struck by a 7.6-magnitude earthquake in 2009 that killed more than 1,100 people, injured many more and caused widespread destruction.
Indonesia straddles the so-called “Pacific Ring of Fire”, where different tectonic plates of the Earth’s crust meet and create frequent seismic activity.

MTV Video Music Awards 2022: Best fashion from the red carpet
Lizzo, Taylor Swift and Lil Nas X were among the stars to impress on a red carpet dominated by dark hues, exposed midriffs and gender-fluid menswear.
The 2022 MTV Video Music Awards got underway Sunday evening, with stars including Lizzo and Blackpink stepping out onto the red carpet for the big night.
Compared with Hollywood’s award ceremonies, the VMAs often see attendees letting loose and showing off their personalities, typically choosing fun, sultry or experimental outfits over formal suits and ballgowns. Fashion history has also been made here, such as Lil’ Kim’s one-sleeved purple jumpsuit and seashell nipple pastie in 1999 or Lady Gaga’s infamous meat dress in 2010.
This year’s event, held at the Prudential Center in Newark, New Jersey, saw performances by the likes of Bad Bunny and Nicki Minaj, with Jack Harlow and LL Cool J hosting. Celebrity fashion watchers also had much to celebrate as style darlings including Taylor Swift, Lil Nas X and Becky G arrived in show-stopping ensembles.
Many stars dressed in dark hues to match this year’s “black carpet” — though they brought outfits to life with fetishwear-inspired accessories, such as singer Dove Cameron’s thick leather choker, or flashes of color, like Sabrina Carpenter’s rainbow embellishments.
Stars also dared to bare, with celebrities including Ashley Graham, Tate McRae and Blackpink’s Jennie all flashing their midriffs. Anitta and Victoria de Angelis of Maneskin, meanwhile, paid apparent homage to Lil’ Kim’s famed 1999 VMAs outfit with fashionable nipple covers.
Some of the evening’s men bared their torsos, too. And gender-fluid fashion brought a certain softness to the menswear ensembles, with Maneskin’s Ethan Torchio donning a sheer corset, Conan Gray billowing past in a lace-train Harris Reed outfit and Bob the Drag Queen twirling in a white skirt, which he matched with a plaid blazer and waistcoat.

Serena Williams and the myth of passing the torch
NEW YORK — On the grounds at Wimbledon years ago, tennis was once described to me as “boxing without the punches.” The game may be more associated with the upper class and its country clubs, strawberries and cream and tea socials, but the analogy is nevertheless true: With the exception of boxing, there is no other sport as viscerally clear and unsentimental about victory and defeat. Two fighters. No help. No timeouts. No teammates. One winner.
Since Serena Williams‘ announcement in Vogue earlier this month that she will be retiring from tennis following the US Open — after 27 years, 23 singles majors, 14 in doubles, two more in mixed doubles, and, for good measure four Olympic gold medals — the air around her has been awash in nothing but sentiment. Nearly 30 years a professional, Williams represents the individual as dynasty, spanning six presidents, playing in parts of four decades. For her fans who were there from the start, her time, from braces to baby, has been theirs, time and age creating nostalgia and reflection for her and themselves. Her sponsors (remember Serena, the Puma years), the kits (the catsuits, 2002 Puma and the 2018 Nike) and the looks (the beads, the blonde) remind her followers not only of Serena’s rivalries (Hingis, Hingis, Hingis!) and victories (start 1-2 lifetime vs. Sharapova, finish 20-2), but where they were in their individual lives at the time, who they were as people and what they would become over the next quarter century. Like a living calendar, she has been their constant.

For the past three weeks since her announcement, Serena has been the story in tennis, and now the US Open is here. She will open the tournament’s Monday night session against 80th-ranked Danka Kovinic of Montenegro. Leading up to the moment has been ritual — the on-court ceremony in Toronto, the testimony from peers and competitors, the gracious and natural language surrounding her and her sport, the inevitable passing of the torch.
There are the watchers, and there are the doers. The watchers revel in the customs of this narrative: Williams, the great champion making her last stand at her home major, a tournament she has won six times. The Open was where she won her first major, 23 years ago, in 1999. The watchers look to the future, at the teen sensation Coco Gauff, perhaps, and see the lineage, as they did when Naomi Osaka beat Serena in the tense, uncomfortable 2018 US Open final. They see the elegiac poetry of time.
For the doer, especially the fighter that is Serena Williams, there is no poetry. Ritual asks that the champion, the lion in winter but still a lion, play along. But passing the torch — willfully leaving the throne — goes against every instinct of the fighter’s nature and that of their prospective successors, who want to be handed nothing. The poetry of transition is a fairy tale. That’s for the watchers, for those who live and die and cheer in support.

Rasha Pecoraro and Yvette Gentile are hoping to heal after their family has been plagued with tragedy for decades.
Over the summer, the sisters launched a weekly podcast titled “Facing Evil,” where they share true-crime stories while delving into topics of wellness after enduring trauma. They previously teamed up in 2019 for “Root of Evil,” a podcast that explored their dark family history involving The Black Dahlia, one of the most infamous unsolved cases in America.

“We’re not true crime – we’re our mother’s daughters,” Pecoraro told Fox News Digital. “We wanted to lift people up and hopefully help them move forward and not remain as victims. We wanted to use our voices to tell the stories that don’t often get told, especially in the true crime genre.”

“We’ve got thrown into this arena because we come from this wild story – our mother’s story,” Gentile shared. “But at the heart of it, this is a story about family secrets and the things that families go through, especially when there’s trauma. And generational trauma is a real thing. We know it from our family alone. But we wanted to focus on the victims because people aren’t born victims. These traumatic scenarios happened to them.”
“But then there’s the aftermath of the families left behind,” she continued. “And that trauma goes on for generations. Speaking about mental health, hope and healing is our primary message. We’re telling crime stories, but we’re also telling them so that people, the families, can overcome and heal.”

—
Rock supergroup Dead & Company canceled its upcoming concert after singer John Mayer’s father experienced a medical emergency, Mayer said.
The “Gravity” singer announced Wednesday that while his father was transported to an ER where “he received much needed and great care,” Mayer wouldn’t be able to perform with the group at their New York show.
“He is now fairly stable and will continue to undergo some procedures, but as you can understand, I have to stay in NYC and can’t play tonight’s show in Saratoga Springs,” Mayer said in an Instagram story shared Wednesday.
Dead & Company announced a few hours after Mayer’s post that the group wouldn’t perform in Saratoga Springs and that ticket holders would be refunded. The remaining tour dates were not affected by Wednesday’s cancellation, the band said.
Mayer’s father Richard celebrated his 90th birthday in 2017, according to an Instagram post Mayer shared that year. Also in 2017, Mayer established a scholarship fund named for his father, Variety reported at the time. The scholarship honored Richard Mayer’s tenure as a high school principal in Connecticut.
Dead & Company is scheduled to perform Friday in Virginia and will end their tour on July 16. The psych-rock group’s lineup includes Grateful Dead members like Bob Weir and contemporary artists like Mayer who perform new covers of Grateful Dead classics.

Product Design Trends in 2024 | Teenage Engineerings

In this piece, we delve into the significant trends set to influence the look and functionality of product design in the year 2024.
How Race, Age and Gender Shape Attitudes Towards Mental Health
Mental health has been in the news quite a bit lately. Dozens of U.S. states are currently suing Meta for contributing to the youth mental health crisis by inserting addictive features into their products, while the U.S. Surgeon General is touring the nation to bring awareness to the growing epidemic of loneliness and isolation. The country has endured periods of low national morale, such as in the 1970s when high inflation and the energy crisis worsened public sentiment following the Vietnam War. The current mood, however, feels different. Gallup recently reported that national mental health is at an all-time low, with few bright spots to lift spirits.
To better understand how Americans are feeling and their attitudes towards mental health in general, ThinkNow conducted a nationally representative quantitative survey of 1,500 respondents and found some interesting differences among ethnic, age and gender groups.
Technology
For example, 52% agree that technology and social media have a negative impact on mental health, but when broken out by race, 61% of Whites felt technology had a negative effect, and only 48% of Hispanics thought it did.
While technology has helped us keep in touch with friends and family in faraway places, it appears to have degraded our ability to connect in person. Staying connected online is a double-edged sword since the same news feed that brings us pictures of the grandkids and fluffy kittens also feeds us news about the wars in Israel and Ukraine, the dysfunction in Washington, the latest mass shooting and the climate crisis.
Hispanics may have a built-in defense against the isolation technology breeds, owing to their large, multigenerational households, strong social support systems, and tendency to use social media to stay connected with relatives abroad.
Age and Gender
When asked how individuals rate their mental health, men rate it higher than women by 11 percentage points, and Baby Boomers rank it highest at 83%, saying it’s good or excellent vs. 57% of Gen Z saying the same.
Gen Z spends the most amount of time on social media, so the notion that social media negatively affects mental health appears to be correlated. Unfortunately, Gen Z is also the generation that’s least comfortable discussing mental health concerns with healthcare professionals. Only 40% of them state they’re comfortable discussing their issues with a professional compared to 60% of Millennials and 65% of Boomers.
Race Affects Attitudes
As seen in previous research conducted by ThinkNow, Asian Americans lag other groups when it comes to awareness of mental health issues. Twenty-four percent of Asian Americans believe that having a mental health issue is a sign of weakness compared to the 16% average for all groups. Asians are also considerably less likely to be aware of mental health services in their communities (42% vs. 55%) and most likely to seek out information on social media (51% vs. 35%).
AI Trends in Creative Operations 2024 by Artwork Flow.pdf
Creative operations teams expect increased AI use in 2024. Currently, over half of tasks are not AI-enabled, but this is expected to decrease in the coming year. ChatGPT is the most popular AI tool currently. Business leaders are more actively exploring AI benefits than individual contributors. Most respondents do not believe AI will impact workforce size in 2024. However, some inhibitions still exist around AI accuracy and lack of understanding. Creatives primarily want to use AI to save time on mundane tasks and boost productivity.
Skeleton Culture Code
Organizational culture includes values, norms, systems, symbols, language, assumptions, beliefs, and habits that influence employee behaviors and how people interpret those behaviors. It is important because culture can help or hinder a company's success. Some key aspects of Netflix's culture that help it achieve results include hiring smartly so every position has stars, focusing on attitude over just aptitude, and having a strict policy against peacocks, whiners, and jerks.
PEPSICO Presentation to CAGNY Conference Feb 2024
PepsiCo provided a safe harbor statement noting that any forward-looking statements are based on currently available information and are subject to risks and uncertainties.

How to Prepare For a Successful Job Search for 2024

It recommends figuring out what you want to do by researching interests and skills, then conducting informational interviews.

Google's Just Not That Into You: Understanding Core Updates & Search Intent
1. Core updates from Google periodically change how its algorithms assess and rank websites and pages. This can impact rankings through shifts in user intent, site quality issues being caught up to, world events influencing queries, and overhauls to search like the E-A-T framework.
2. There are many possible user intents beyond just transactional, navigational and informational. Identifying intent shifts is important during core updates. Sites may need to optimize for new intents through different content types and sections.
3. Responding effectively to core updates requires analyzing "before and after" data to understand changes, identifying new intents or page types, and ensuring content matches appropriate intents across video, images, knowledge graphs and more.

Haleem Adil Sheikh alleges he was tortured, strangled in custody.pdf
- 1. Haleem Adil Sheikh alleges he was tortured, strangled in custody #HaleemAdil #Sheikh #alleges #tortured #strangled #custody https://khadijanews.com/haleem-adil-sheikh-alleges-he-was-tortured-strangled-in-custody/ PTI leader Haleem Adil Sheikh. ● Prosecution claims Haleem didn’t cooperate in investigation. ● Haleem Adil Sheikh alleges he was tortured, strangled in police station. ● Says “I am not a terrorist but was isolated in terrorists’ cell for 10 days.”
- 2. KARACHI: A court on Tuesday rejected a plea seeking physical remand of Leader of the Opposition in the Sindh Assembly Haleem Adil Sheikh in a land-grabbing case. The court sent Sheikh into judicial custody while directing the anti-encroachment officials to submit the case challan at the next hearing. Sheikh, who is also a PTI leader, has been under arrest for over a month for allegedly grabbing 25 acres of government land. He alleges that he was tortured and strangled in detention. During the hearing, the court inquired from the investigation officer (IO) on why he held Sheikh by his collar. The IO responded in the negative and said that he could only grab Sheikh’s shirt to save him as he was falling. Sheikh’s lawyer maintained that the FIR against the politician was lodged by a tapedar and there is not a single private witness in the case. “My client is being linked to land grabbers. The leader of the Opposition is not arrested without the Assembly speaker’s permission,” he said. While giving arguments, the prosecutor said that a notice was served to Haleem after the registration of the case against him but he didn’t cooperate in the investigation. He requested the court to remand Haleem into police custody for investigating strong evidence against him. ‘Tortured, strangled at police station’: Haleem Adil Sheikh A video of Sheikh from the hearing surfaced on Twitter where he was seen alleging that he was tortured and strangled in jail.
- 3. “They didn’t give me a single thing to eat for two days. I am not a terrorist but was isolated in the terrorists’ cell for 10 days,” Sheikh said in the video while showing a bruise on his leg. He said that he has a rod in his leg due to which he has a puss infection, but is not being given medical treatment for it. Sheikh protested that he was arrested from prison in a new case. Haleem Adil Sheikh arrested from Jamshoro The Anti-corruption Establishment, Sindh (ACE) had arrested Sheikh in a property transfer case on July 27. The PTI leader went to the anti-corruption’s office in Jamshoro to record his statement in a case pertaining to allegedly raising a loan from a bank on the basis of fake property documents. The institution, as he recorded the statement in the office of Deputy Director ACE Zeeshan Memon, arrested him, according to sources. This was the second time in the same month that the ACE arrested Sheikh in the case.
