Zverev gave an emotional speech after winning the U.S. Open about his mom and how she helped him achieve his dreams despite struggling with diabetes
“I wanna thank one more person who’s never actually watching my matches but is the most important person in my tennis life and in my life in general.
When your 4 year old son gets diagnosed with diabetes, and doctors in the office tell you that life and sports will be very very limited for that child, it takes a very very strong mother to walk out of those offices and say ‘My son will be wherever he wants to be.
If he wants to be a tennis player he’ll be a tennis player. If he wants to do something else, he’ll do something else. But this illness will not define us.’ My mother is the most important and strongest person I know. It takes an unbelievably strong woman to do what she did.” 🥹
చెరువుల పునరుజ్జీవంతో రూపురేఖలు మారుతున్న మన హైదరాబాద్ను చూడటం నాకెంతో సంతృప్తినిచ్చింది!
హైదరాబాద్ CURE పరిధిని క్యూర్ చేసుకుంటూ ... మన చెరువులకు జీవం పోస్తూ... భావి తరాలకు జీవంతో నిండిన భవిష్యత్తును అంకితం చేస్తోంది #HYDRAA
ఉప్పల్ నల్ల చెరువు పునరుజ్జీవానికి అహర్నిశలు శ్రమించిన HYDRAA అధికారులకు, సిబ్బందికి నా హృదయపూర్వక అభినందనలు.
చెరువులను పరిరక్షించడం అంటే కేవలం నీటి వనరులను కాపాడటం మాత్రమే కాదు... భావి తరాల భవిష్యత్తును భద్రపరచడం కూడా. ప్రతి చెరువును కాపాడుతూ... ప్రతి అంగుళం ప్రజా ఆస్తిని సంరక్షిస్తూ ముందుకు సాగుతాం.

cool use case of chatgpt work i heard last night:
connect your family calendars and explain your kids' interests.
every morning for the drive to school, have it make a podcast that talks about one kid's soccer game that afternoon, one kid's upcoming birthday, some news, etc.
Meta feed is the most boring and least engaging content.. ai slop, boring outdated content,zero engagement and ads slapped everywhere…Instagram at least has some juice
So $META will now charge users for the privilege of being served nonstop AI slop ads.
Bold new strategy to continue degrading the user experience to plug the gaping holes in Meta's cash flow statement, all to fund the most reckless capital spending spree of all time.
Winston Churchill fought his depression with bricks. He'd lay them for hours at his country home in Kent. He joined the bricklayers' union. And in 1921 he wrote about why it worked. It took psychology another 75 years to catch up.
He called his depression the "Black Dog." It followed him for decades. His method for fighting it back was as basic as it sounds: laying brick after brick, hour after hour.
Churchill spelled out his theory in a long essay for The Strand Magazine. People who think for a living, he wrote, can't fix a tired brain just by resting it. They have to use a different part of themselves. The part that moves the eyes and the hands. Woodworking, chemistry, bookbinding, bricklaying, painting. Anything that drags the body into a problem the mind can't solve by itself.
Modern psychology now calls this behavioral activation. It's one of the most-studied depression treatments out there. Depression sets a behavior trap. You feel bad, so you stop doing things, and doing less means less to feel good about. Feeling worse makes you do even less. The loop tightens until you can't breathe inside it.
Behavioral activation breaks the loop from the action side. You schedule the activity first, even when every part of you doesn't want to. Doing it produces small rewards: a wall gets straighter, a painting fills in, a messy room gets clean. Those small rewards slowly rewire the brain. Action comes first, and the feeling follows.
Researchers at the University of Washington put this to the test in 2006. They studied 241 adults with major depression and compared three treatments: behavioral activation, regular talk therapy, and antidepressants. For the people who were most severely depressed, behavioral activation matched the drugs. It beat the talk therapy. A 2014 review of more than 1,500 patients across 26 trials backed up the result.
Physical work like bricklaying does something extra on top of this. It crowds out rumination, the looping bad thoughts that grind people down during the worst stretches of depression. Bricklaying needs both hands and gives feedback brick by brick: each one is straight or crooked. After an hour you can see exactly how much wall you built. No room left for the mental chewing.
The line George Mack used in his post, "depression hates a moving target," is good poetry. The science behind it is sharper. Depression hates a brain that has somewhere else to be.
Assam and Bengal are clear cases of the election being stolen by the BJP with the support of the EC.
We agree with Mamata ji. More than 100 seats were stolen in Bengal.
We have seen this playbook before:
Madhya Pradesh.
Haryana.
Maharashtra.
Lok Sabha 2024 etc
चुनाव चोरी, संस्था चोरी - अब और चारा ही क्या है!
