Sheikh @JoaanBinHamad Al Thani, President of the @AsianGamesOCA (OCA) and President of the @qatar_olympic Committee, visited the family of Raja Randhir Singh in New Delhi to offer his condolences.

Raja Randhir Singh, who passed away on 27 May at the age of 79 in #NewDelhi, was a five-time #Olympian and the first Indian to serve as President of the Olympic Council of Asia. He also held the titles of Honorary Life Vice President of the #OCA and Honorary Member of the International Olympic Committee.

During the visit, Sheikh Joaan paid tribute to Singh's outstanding contribution to the Asian Olympic Movement, noting that his dedication, leadership and lifelong service to sport would continue to inspire generations across the continent.

In a post on X, the OCA described Singh as a figure whose "dedication, leadership, and lifelong service to sport will continue to inspire generations across the continent”.

Operation Toofan : The Narco Hunt
From today …

Aimed at overhauling drug mafia in the state in coordination with Health and Excise departments, this Operation is aimed at destroying the drug menace from its root.
Need prayers and support for the initiative !

[Ramesh Chennithala @chennithala]

Proudly announcing "TOOFAN: The Narco Hunt"—a systemic, borderless policy offensive designed to serve as a national benchmark in the eradication of synthetic drug networks.

Why "Toofan"? Because a conventional cleanup wasn't going to cut it, we needed a legislative and operational storm to completely uproot a deeply entrenched syndicate. Under this mandate, the Kerala Police will enforce a paradigm of absolute impartiality. No political influence, social status, or state borders will shield traffickers. Coordinated via interstate protocols with neighboring DGPs and powered by an advanced Cyber Wing targeting dark web networks, this operation introduces a rigorous law enforcement model.

The structural blueprint is finalized. As schools reopen and the new academic year commences on June 1st, Operation Toofan goes into full effect to guarantee secure campuses and a protected future.
Kerala Police. Set to action.

A few thoughts on the Netherlands 🇳🇱

After several years living here, I want to say it clearly: I really like this country.

The Dutch have a special kind of quiet decency — direct, practical, and often kinder than they give themselves credit for. I appreciate the freedom, the safety, the respect for personal space, and the way life feels organized without being oppressive.

This environment has also given me space to breathe and continue my journey with mental health — to manage my psychoses better and build a meaningful life.

I love the beautiful light on the canals, the bike culture (even if I still complain about the rain), and the simple pleasure of Friday mornings at the market. Most of all, I’m grateful for the good people I’ve met — normal, warm, down-to-earth people who value real life.

It’s not perfect, of course. No country is. But this place has given me space to grow, to heal in my own way, and to create. And for that, I’m truly thankful.

[Rob Jetten @MinPres]

If there’s one thing the Netherlands excels at, it is dealing with water. India has shown considerable interest in our expertise in the field of water management. We’re looking to deepen our cooperation in this area. 

That’s why, together with Prime Minister @narendramodi, I visited an icon among Dutch water engineering structures: the Afsluitdijk barrier dam.

Here, we learned about the history of the dam, how it protects us from flooding and how it enables innovative and sustainable forms of energy.

🇳🇱🤝🇮🇳

We sit 187 days a year. AI is frying our brains. We feel like crap. But we don't have to! My book BODY ELECTRIC is out today. Built on a @ColumbiaMed clinical trial with 20,000 people, it's a playbook for reclaiming your body and brain without going off the grid.

At 60, most people slow down. Milind Soman chose to cross continents.

On May 1, he swam 15 km across the Strait of Gibraltar, from Tarifa in Europe to the coast of Morocco in Africa.

Calling the experience “beautiful,” he reminded the world that endurance isn’t about age, it’s about mindset.

From battling brutal waters to inspiring millions, he didn’t just swim across continents, he redefined what 60 can look like.

“At SpaceX, almost all my time is spent on engineering and design. It's probably 80% ~ 90% and I’m always available to solve the issues call me 3 AM or 4 AM.

The Starship can enable a permanently crewed science station on the Moon, which would be super cool.

And Orbital refilling is essential to get serious tonnage to Mars and Moon.

Earth’s gravity is strong enough to make reaching Mars extremely hard, but not impossible. In 2029 ~ 2030 Starship will launch more than once per hour.”

#Qatar's Ministry of Interior (@MOI_QatarEn) published a video on Tuesday emphasising the importance for the public to make away for civil defence, police and ambulance vehicles during emergencies. The ministry noted that adhering to such directions "plays a crucial role in saving lives".⁠

Today is World Liver Day 2026.
Here are 8 things your liver actually wants you to know.

1
There is no such thing as a "liver detox."
Your liver runs phase I and II detoxification 24/7 on its own.
No juice cleanse, no milk thistle, no herbal detox speeds this up.

In fact several have caused liver injury - the opposite of the claim.

2
Alcohol has no safe dose.
Liver harm begins from the first drink.
The old "moderate drinking is protective" myth came from flawed studies contaminated by abstainer bias - now debunked by Mendelian randomization.

Zero ml is best.

3
"Natural" supplements are now a leading cause of acute liver failure.
Ashwagandha. Green tea extract. Garcinia. Kratom. High-dose turmeric. Giloy/Tinospora.
They dominate drug-induced liver injury registries across India, the US, and Europe.

Natural ≠ safe.

4
Coffee is genuinely liver-protective.
2–3 cups/day (caffeinated or decaf) lowers the risk of fibrosis, cirrhosis, and liver cancer.

One of the very few dietary interventions with real, replicated evidence.

5
Fatty liver (MASLD) now affects ~1 in 3 adults worldwide.
A 7–10% body-weight loss:
• clears Liver fat
• reduces inflammation
• can regress early fibrosis

No approved drug currently beats this. Your plate and feet are the first-line therapy.

6
Sugar-sweetened drinks independently cause fatty liver.
Fructose is metabolized almost entirely by the liver - straight into fat.
One daily soda raises MASLD risk even after adjusting for total calories.
Lesser is better.

7
Get vaccinated against hepatitis B. Get screened for HBV and HCV at least once in your lifetime.
HBV vaccine prevents >95% of chronic infection, cirrhosis, and liver cancer.
Hepatitis C is curable in 8-12 weeks with >95% success - but most carriers don't know they have it.

8
Exercise protects the liver independent of weight loss.
150 min/week moderate OR 75 min vigorous activity reduces liver fat and stiffness - even when the scale doesn't move.

Movement is "medicine".

🫂

PS: we also need a liver emoji

[لولوة الخاطر Lolwah Alkhater @Lolwah_Alkhater]

Peace be upon me the day I was born, the day I die, and the day I will be raised back to life!(33) That is #Jesus, son of Mary. ˹And this is˺ a word of truth, about which they dispute. (34) ” 🍃

Quran: chapter 19 (Mary) Verses 33 & 34 .

#PEACE 🕊️ is how the #Quran described the life, death and resurrection of Jesus Christ peace be upon him. Everything about JESUS is PEACEFUL and yet we see a handful of war lords using the name of Jesus to cover up for their crimes.

As a #Muslim and as a Lover of #Jesus_Christ , I fully reject and denounce the shameful manner in which some shameless and irresponsible individuals are misusing the name and image of Jesus peace be upon him for their own goals. I express full solidarity with my fellow Christians who have been rightly offended by this disgraceful discourse, which doesn’t represent the truth.

In fact I find it insulting to me and billions of believers around the world how the holy scriptures ( #Jewish, #Christian or #Islamic) are being twisted to serve destructive agendas against #Humanity .

May PEACE & PRAYERS be upon the word of God that is the Messiah Jesus Christ and his beloved mother Virgin Mary.
