Kolkata, Nov 14 (PTI) Indian chess great Viswanathan Anand sees signs of greatness in Nihal Sarin but says it’s a long journey ahead for the impressive 14-year-old since there has been a trend of players struggling to replicate success as they age. Sarin did exceedingly well by forcing a draw with five-time World Champion Anand in the eighth round of the Tata Steel Chess Rapid tournament here. Currently ranked world number one in the U14 category, Sarin finished the rapid section of the tournament with just three points with six draws and three defeats but impressed with the calm manner in which he tackled the pressure of playing some of the biggest stars of the game....

His problem is one of decision-making and professionalism. This isn't one of those columns about how he needs to distance himself from some of the nefarious characters he grew up with or apparently still chooses to associate with. That can't be easy and I know that I would have a tough time just completely shutting off any of the friends I grew up with. For all I care, Jackson can hang out with them all day every day....

The COVID 19 outbreak aggregates certain losses with the opportunity to explore gains hidden in this pandemic. It has undoubtedly changed the way people were using technology, and it is going to be last forever (literally). One of these changes includes face masks that are going to be part of your daily routine as they said to protect you from virus infection. So, What is the Issue? Smartphone users who are using Face ID to unlock their devices are finding a hard time to unlock the device while wearing a face mask....

As always, the answer isn’t simple. Internal dynamics are playing a key part and warrant attention before they are allowed to precipitate a worse crisis. The war in Ukraine may also be playing a significant role. While this round of saber-rattling is unlikely to erupt immediately in war, it will likely bring with it increased economic disruption and pressurize an already-tense relationship at a particularly inopportune time, as global markets stagger, inflation surges upward, and COVID continues to ravage the globe....

Which may be a relief, considering the aftermath of earlier parabolics. Japan’s ““bubble market’’ of 1988-89 eventually surrendered 63 percent of its value. When gold broke in 1980, the bottom turned out to be 47 percent down. Then there was the Dow in 1987 and, um, 1929. This history has to get your attention even if (like me) you believe in buying stocks and holding on to them. It’s one thing to be consistent, but quite another to be stupid....

If Project Spartacus truly wants to compete with Xbox Game Pass, however, it will need to include first-party titles the day they release, just like Xbox does with its IPs. Unfortunately, it seems extremely unlikely that Sony would ever consider doing that, at least for the time being given the differences between the ways that the two companies market their consoles and their first-party titles. It’s certainly possible that Sony could throw a curveball and include them on day one with the revamped service, but, based on how it’s handled things with the release of the PlayStation 5, fans shouldn’t get their hopes too high....

Francesco Mazzei, chef patron at Sartoria in Mayfair, London, reacted with horror to the ham and pineapple dish, which resurfaced on Twitter after the account NoContextBrits shared a screenshot of the recipe, which was originally published on the BBC Food website. “The BBC have declared war with Italy,” a caption accompanying the image read. At the time of writing, it’s already been retweeted over 11,000 times, earning 120,000 likes in the process....

From December 21 to January 6, no Italian citizen will be able to travel among the country’s 20 regions except for work, medical reasons or emergencies, the government order said.

While Trump’s has more followers on Twitter and Facebook, previous analysis from Newsweek found Biden was getting stronger engagement figures. In terms of running mates, Biden also had a stronger surrogate on social media in Sen. Kamala Harris (D-CA) than Trump has in Vice President Mike Pence. However, Trump has previously looked to his children to boost his campaign, and angling their social media accounts behind him could also be a powerful weapon in his arsenal....

Violent chaos erupted in Washington, D.C. as Congress was meeting to certify President-elect Joe Biden’s election win. Ivanka made the tweet after a group supporting her father President Donald Trump breached the Capitol building, describing the group in a seemingly flattering manner while urging them to stop their “unacceptable” behavior. “American Patriots – any security breach or disrespect to our law enforcement is unacceptable. The violence must stop,” Ivanka tweeted....

The daughter of and advisor to President Donald Trump, Ivanka Trump indicated her intention to be immunized publicly after former Presidents Barack Obama, George W. Bush and Bill Clinton said they would do the same. Though health officials have said it is likely some Americans will be able to receive a COVID-19 vaccine before the end of the year, uncertainty remains about the safety of the vaccines produced by pharmaceutical companies that have applied for emergency use authorization through the FDA due in part to the speed with which they were developed....

The president’s daughter appeared in a previewed interview on CBS News’ Face the Nation and lamented the “unprecedented resistance” she says President Donald Trump has faced since taking office. Brennan pressed Trump on how much she personally advises the president and also sidestepped a question about whether or not attorney Rudy Giuliani is providing the president “good counsel” given his repeated visits to Ukraine in order to potentially open up an investigation into the Biden family....

British trade minister Liam Fox told BBC radio that he would apologize to senior White House adviser Ivanka Trump for the memos from Ambassador to Washington Kim Darroch when he meets Trump in Washington, D.C. “I will be apologizing for the fact that either our civil service or elements of our political class have not lived up to the expectations that either we have or the United States has about their behavior, which in this particular case has lapsed in a most extraordinary and unacceptable way,” Fox said....

ATK arguably pulled-off one of the biggest signings this year by roping in Fijian striker Roy Krishna.

The opener by Schembri was also the club’s first goal of the season after four games. The Maltese came on as a substitute in the 82nd minute replacing Brazilian Rafael Crivellaro as coach John Gregory opted to go with two frontmen to get that elusive goal. For his goal, Schembri brought down an overhit cross before firing past Hyderabad custodian Kamaljit Singh from a tight angle and for the second he turned provider, chesting down a pass from Anirudh Thapa before providing the perfect through ball to his strike partner Nerijus Valskis....

Over the past few days, there had been rumours doing the rounds that the Tunisian midfielder was potentially on his way out of the club, especially with the Islanders and Larbi’s representatives being at loggerheads in terms of his contract. However, just a day after ATK consigned them to their 3rd home defeat in the current campaign, Mumbai City FC announced that Larbi wouldn’t be jumping ship mid-way and that he would be a part of the outfit for the games that remain....
