There are some ancient narrations about the Jhiri Mela in the state. According to some fables, there used to be a farmer who was very honest and uncomplicated. The farmer's name was Baba Jitu. The farmer used to reside with his family members at a place which was 14 kms from Jammu. There was a time when the local landowner ordered Baba Jitu to part with his harvest. According to Baba Jitu, this demand was totally wrong and unjustified. The farmer could not bow to the injustice of the zamindar, hence, he ended his life as there was no alternative before him. Since, there was no police station and the king was not ready to listen, the poor farmer had to commit suicide.
People tend to have high regard and respect for Baba Jitu. He is considered an honest and decent person among the locals; therefore they have started worshipping him. They believe that his soul is eternal and should be worshipped. Every year locals as well as tourists rejoice the Jhiri Mela in the month of October to honor the sacrifice of the poor farmer. People still remember the great sacrifice made by Baba Jitu against the injustice of the landlord.
It has been observed that people from almost every region of India tend to visit Jammu in order to explore the spectacular Jhiri Mela.

All the books on the renowned Baba Jitu have gained immense popularity in the region. Visitors purchase these books in order to know more about the poor farmer and his struggle against the injustices. These informative pamphlets and books glorify the existence and activities of the poor peasant. Jhiri Mela is actually a thrilling experience for everyone present in the fair.

Moreover, tourists tend to engage in rock climbing, sightseeing, paragliding, walking trip and other related outdoor activities.
The beautiful sight of lakes, spring falls and mountains really augment the overall natural beauty of the place in the most astonishing manner. The dense vegetation and snow-capped valley increases the splendor and beauty of Jhiri Mela.

New predatory dinosaur added to Australia's prehistory
by University of New England

Evidence of agile, carnivorous two-legged dinosaurs known as noasaurids have been found across the now dispersed land masses that once formed the ancient southern supercontinent of Gondwana, but never in Australia—until now.
Researchers identified a single neck bone found in an opal mine near the outback town of Lightning Ridge, New South Wales, as belonging to a noasaurid, and then realised that another fossil discovered in 2012 along the south coast of Victoria was from the same group.
Noasaurid are a rare group of theropod dinosaurs—two legged carnivores—that lived in the middle to late Cretaceous Period, between about 120 and 66 million years ago. Noasaurids were small-bodied dinosaurs, many with peculiar facial features, typically less than two metres long and weighing about 20 kilograms.
The recognition of this new group of dinosaurs in Australia by palaeontologists from the Palaeoscience Research Centre at the University of New England and the Australian Opal Centre in Lightning Ridge adds a missing piece to a puzzle.
"It was assumed that noasaurids must have lived in Australia because their fossils have been found on other southern continents that, like Australia, were once part of the Gondwanan supercontinent," said lead scientist, Dr. Tom Brougham of the Palaeoscience Research Centre. "These recent fossil finds demonstrate for the first time that noasaurids once roamed across Australia. Discoveries of theropods are rare in Australia, so every little find we make reveals important details about our unique dinosaur fauna."
The researchers compared the 100 million-year-old Lightning Ridge neck bone with those from other carnivorous dinosaurs and quickly realised it was different from anything that had been found in Australia to date. "When we looked at what features this bone has compared to those of other theropods, we found that it matched closely with this strange group of dinosaurs called noasaurids," Dr. Brougham said.
"This prompted us to re-examine an ankle bone of a dinosaur that was discovered in Victoria in 2012, about 20 million years older than the Lightning Ridge bone, and using the same methods we concluded that this also belonged to a noasaurid. In addition, this ankle bone is approximately the same age, or perhaps even older, than the oldest known noasaurids, which come from South America."
Noasaurids were similar in size to, and lived at the same time as, a more well-known group of carnivorous dinosaurs called dromaeosaurids or 'raptors'—infamously represented by Velociraptor in Jurassic Park—and were probably also active predators. However, while Velociraptor and kin have representatives from all over the world, noasaurids were known only from several of the southern continents (South America, Africa, Madagascar and India), which formed the supercontinent of Gondwana before it started breaking apart in the Cretaceous.
The study was published today in the journal Scientific Reports.

For readers who love a heartwarming romance and a rich historical setting comes a tale of a young woman with a heavy burden, the International Cotton Exposition, and the pursuit of true love. Eighteen-year-old Laurel Millard, youngest of seven children, is expected to stay home and "take care of Mama" by her older siblings, but Laurel has dreams of starting her own family. Operating a silk loom at the Atlanta Exposition will give her the chance to capture the heart of a man wealthy enough to take care of Laurel and any children she might bear, as well as her mother. Brendan Rochester's parents have given him an ultimatum: settle down with a wife or lose his family inheritance. At the Exposition, Brendan meets Laurel. Marrying her would satisfy his parents's command, she would look lovely on his arm for social events, and in her besotted state, he believes she would overlook him continuing pursuing rowdy adventures with his unmarried buddies. Brendan decides to woo Laurel. Willie Sharp is not well-off and must take on an extra job at the Atlanta Exposition as a security guard. When mischief-makers cause trouble in the Women's Building, Willie is put in charge of keeping the building secure. He enjoys visiting with Laurel, who seems like the little sister he never had, but his feelings for Laurel change to something much deeper. Can Willie convince Laurel that he can give her better life--even with so little to offer?

Billy Jenkins, guitarist and chronicler of London life, was just 16 when he went on the road with the art-rock band Burlesque in 1972. It was the first step in a career that spans free jazz and stand-up comedy, gutsy rhythm and blues and the landmark House of God jazz collective – religion, or lack of it, is a core Jenkins theme. Now the seasoned session musician and prolific composer, with more than 350 works to his credit, is to have a retrospective at the London Jazz Festival.
It is not so much a turning point in Jenkins' career as a returning point. In 2007, the life-and-death questions that have informed his music became all too real. Both his father-in-law and his own father became ill; Jenkins undertook the duties of a carer up to each man's death, and music took a distant second place. The experience was so profound that he decided to train as a humanist officiant, able to conduct non-religious funerals.
This year has seen two new albums and the digital reissue of three classic recordings. For the London Jazz Festival, his first set on November 21 will feature Jenkins' Trio Blues Suburbia and guests. At its core will be the rhythm and blues, vaudevillian anarchy and professional gloss of his new album Born Again (and the Religion is the Blues), an intensely personal document.
The earlier CD release makes direct reference to place. Featuring ultra-sharp saxophonist Nathaniel Facey, it was called I Am the Man from Lewisham, and it is at his home in that south London borough that I meet Jenkins.
Jenkins gets both stability and satisfaction from his new career as an officiant. That's not to say his eyes don't sparkle when he describes what happens when you put six musicians in a room.
"Whatever happens it's six people making love. That is the joy." What does sadden him is when jazz musicians are too aloof or rest on their laurels, "repeating themselves over the once-exciting compositions of 15 years ago".
Jenkins has a history of getting the best out of the musicians he works with and the three Uncommerciality Sessions, recorded between 1986 and 1991, are now regarded as classics, and are now available as digital downloads. Three compositions from the series will form the basis of his second LJF set next Sunday, with the BBC Big Band, which has commissioned saxophonist Iain Ballamy – who played on the original recordings – to write new arrangements.
Jenkins' idea of fun is to add a stinging attack and crunchy chord work to the powerhouse riffs of electric blues. Add in his showmanship, penchant for gentle mockery and habit of using sport as a framework for performance and it's easy to see why some underestimate his seriousness. In 1998, for example, he marked the World Cup football match between Iran and the US by lining up opposing teams of jazz musicians to perform while the game was being played.
Yet Jenkins' overarching concern is a search for authenticity. "There are two strands to my music," he says. "Aural landscapes, or where we come from. And out of that aural landscape comes the singing of the blues." It is a clear vision that holds his diverse musical projects together.
Jenkins sprinkles his life-story with local figures, starting with Michael Bailey, choirmaster at Bromley parish church. "We'd start Tuesday and Thursday singing rehearsals with rock and roll and then we'd go on to do the anthem and stuff." His first gigs were with the choir. "We'd do four or five weddings on Saturday afternoons, speeding up the music to make sure we kept on time." Then there was Burt Stephens, who taught him a few chords when he got his first guitar aged 12, and Bob Graves, who a few years later introduced him to jazz through the Sonny Rollins album East Broadway Rundown. Local connections stretch from his best friend at school, Billy Broad – better known as Billy Idol – to the pianists who later introduced him to regular studio work for the likes of the Alabama 3.
The years on the road and recent family duties have taken their toll, and he finds even the idea of performing exhausting. The London Jazz Festival gig is an exception. "I just wanted to work with the BBC Big Band. I couldn't think of a finer project." And, being at London's Purcell Room, it is just south of the river.

HBO Max International Rollout Shackled by Existing Volume Deals
Jack Thomas Manager
WarnerMedia has held an SVOD presence in the Nordics and Spain for many years already, so next week's international rollout of HBO Max is less an expansion and more a rebrand in all announced territories bar Andorra.
Warner so far has been unable to match the prolific levels of vertical integration exhibited by some of its rivals such as Disney, who are now vertically integrating almost the entirety of their current scripted catalogue. Show Tracker reveals that this largely comes from the presence of existing volume deals for HBO content holding back the launch of HBO Max in the majority of international markets where Warner does not have a service presence already.
Warner has operated HBO Espana and HBO Nordic for many years in Spain and Sweden, serving as a huge driver of vertical integration trends in those markets. This was even before Disney and Lionsgate launched Disney+ and StarzPlay respectively. In fact, the combined presence of HBO Espana, StarzPlay and Disney+ in Spain resulted in 76% of new premieres in the 2020/21 being vertically integrated.
For many third party buyers of US content, the switch in strategy from studios to vertical integration represents a growing challenge to acquire high quality shows for their services. On top of this, the historic prolific levels of volume deal sales from Warner has meant that many local services have been cut out of any opportunity to acquire any HBO content, with these series instead destined to appear on the many homes of HBO.
Warner TV shows that are not tied up in volume deals, namely those not commissioned by HBO, have historically found third party homes with individual buyers, although the trend for these types of sales have ultimately been going down. This activity is unlikely to continue in markets once they have HBO Max however. Warner vertically integrated every single new scripted title in the 2020/21 season on their own services in Spain and Sweden bar one show. This one exception to the trend is 'The Right Stuff', a Disney+ Original since cancelled by the SVOD, with Warner set to potentially greenlight and take on a second season for themselves.
In the US WarnerMedia has begun to distribute less titles commissioned by rival services in recent years, with 73% of Warner distributed US commissions last year debuting on Warner owned services in the US.
Certain relationships Warner once had with service owners such as Disney, distributing TV shows commissioned by ABC, Hulu or Freeform, have for the most part dried up, with the exception of the aforementioned short lived 'The Right Stuff' on Disney+. Warner has engaged with newcomers such as Apple TV+, distributing both 'Little Voice' and 'Ted Lasso', the latter TV show helping Warner become the most successful distributor at this year's Emmys. There has not as of yet been an extension of this partnership with Apple as Warner has not distributed any of the SVOD's new originals since.
Other signs pointing to Warner's change of strategy in the US to mirror its hopeful plans abroad include relocating TV series already in progress. 'Pennyworth' originally debuted on MGM's Epix in 2019, with its second season appearing there also. It has since been announced however that the TV show's third season will instead air on HBO Max, ending the two year relationship between Warner and Epix.
While its ultimate goal as a distributor at the moment appears to be providing a direct-to-consumer route for all of its content in as many markets as possible, its strategy thus far for HBO Max as a service has demonstrated a more domestic approach for now. To help boost its growth as an SVOD in the US market, likely one of their most valuable, Warner has acquired a number of their Max Originals from third parties.
Less than half of the HBO Max Originals that have debuted in the US were in fact commissioned by the service. The SVOD has supplemented much of its early slate with acquisitions of UK television shows from a number of distributors. As a result disparities across borders are already starting to occur. 'Two Weeks to Live' was acquired by Warner from Banijay and branded a 'Max Original' in the US, while in Latin America, Sweden and Australia, Paramount+ has acquired it and branded it a 'Paramount+ Exclusive'.
Even key commissioned TV shows from the service are instead distributed by third parties, such as ViacomCBS ('Made for Love'), Lionsgate ('Love Life') and NBCUniversal ('Hacks'). This inevitably will prove a challenge for international rollout as some of these distributors have already begun to sell these TV shows to would-be competitors to HBO Max. In Sweden for instance, Lionsgate sold 'Love Life' to Telia's C More Play almost a full year before HBO Nordic was able to acquire it as a second window.
These strategies obviously do not resolve the key hurdle blocking Warner's international HBO Max rollout - its existing volume deals, with some such as that it has with Sky in the UK, Germany and Italy set to last until 2025. Sky seems to be setting themselves up with some cudgels to help bring a fight in future negotiations to perhaps carry the service on its platform, having recently renamed Sky One, named as such for over three decades, to Sky Max, complete with similar iconography.
Warner is obviously keen to be seen to be expanding HBO Max internationally and while its easy to dismiss its launch in Spain and the Nordics next week as little more than a rebrand, it does come with an injection of new library content and a price reduction in some markets, signalling a desire to take even more of the SVOD share in markets they have already been historically strong in.
Once Warner is unshackled by its volume deals it will go all in on vertical integration much like their rival Disney, leaving an arguably larger gap in the seller's market than that left by Disney's abrupt exit earlier this year following the launch of Star. Local services will have to look for new suppliers of content for their services, giving those distributors without a D2C service the opportunity to sell their content to some historically big spenders across the world.

Cult Killings: Ebonyi Speaker Sends Sterling Warning, Commends Izhi Nnodo Youth Forum
By NWOGHA NDUBUISI ANDY, Abakaliki
Speaker Ebonyi State House of Assembly, Rt.Hon. Francis Ogbonna Nwifuru on Monday 7th December, 2020 warned against engagement in cult killings.
This was contained in a statement issued and made available to newsmen by the Chief Press Secretary to the Speaker, Leo Ekene Oketa in Abakaliki, Ebonyi State capital.
The Speaker in the statement asked cultists and other crime breeders in the state to denounce their evil ways and turn a new leaf or face the full wrath of the law.
According to the statement, Speaker Nwifuru bared his mind at plenary on the incessant attack and killings, in response to a 'personal explanation' by the Leader of the House, Victor Uzoma Chukwu, after the House recess, regarding the tension created in his constituency, Ezza North West, occasioned by the killing of one Mr. Chinedu Shedrack Uhuo and the deceased's girlfriend.
According to the speaker: "It is only a coward that joins a secret cult. Being a cultist is not something one should be proud of. Why should you be proud of being a cultist or proudly taking sides and aiding criminals? It's high time we call a spade, a spade. If you cannot belong to a club to eat and drink peacefully, dissociate yourself from that club. It is embarrassing for us as a state and thank God the Governor has always taken a firm stand against such ugly incidents.
"So I support the decision of Izzi Nnodo Youths, that if you're identified as a cultist and to have killed someone in Abakaliki, you'll be traced to your house. I want to sound this note of warning to all cultists in the State and to inform them that the Government is ready for them. People cannot be scared to move freely or relax at their usual places because of a few irresponsible ones."
Also in the satement, the Deputy Speaker, Mr. Odefa Obasi Odefa, narrated how the recess which commenced two months ago, was punctuated by tragic events in his life and that of his family.
Odefa noted that he lost one of his aides, Mr. Kingsley Obasi, (the Deputy Chief of Staff to the Honourable Speaker, Office of the Deputy Speaker), who was gruesomely murdered by hoodlums, and another close relative of him, that passed away in the recent past.
He equally solicited the continued intervention of government on the crisis brewing in his constituency, Onicha East.
Other Honourable Members made their own personal explanations – thanking Governor David Umahi for his developmental strides in their respective constituencies, and encouraged him to do more.
The House observed a minute of silence in honour of the deceased. It was the first plenary of the House after their two months recess. However, the house with majority vote removed the Chief Whip,Hon. Humphrey Nwuruku.
The Speaker pointed out that the removal was based on petition filed against the Lawmaker which was put to vote during the plenary and it gained massive support demanding his removal which is in line with the legislative law.
When asked if the ousted Chief Whip has been replaced, the speaker maintained that he is not to nominate the successor but the members of the house that would elect and are yet to do so.
Meanwhile, the speaker cleared air on the rumour making the round that the 6th Assembly members have joined the ruling All Progressives Congress, stating that they have not defected as they are members of People Democratic Party (PDP).

Getting a tattoo can be nerve-wrecking—aside from the pain involved during the process, so many things could go wrong that will make the decision of inking anything permanently onto our skin seem like the biggest mistake of our lives.
However, when we come across truly remarkable pieces of tattoo art, it seems like all that risk will be worth it.
Trend-focused website So Bad So Good has compiled a collection of exceptional—in some cases, mind-blowingly intense—tattoos for your inspirational and visual pleasure.
From a whimsical connect-the-dots tattoo that links up to form a giraffe, to an amazingly intricate map of Venice that covers both hands, these tattoos could not be grouped together under any particular theme—the only similarity they share is that of beauty.
Stunning and wildly conspicuous, these pieces are not meant to be covered up in any way—and why should they be?

What's Norma Rae Got to Do with It?
T hink about what caregivers do to support the people they love: they spend hours scheduling and attending medical appointments. They dish out 20 percent of their annual income for out of pocket costs. They bathe and wipe the bodies of their loved ones. And, they navigate the protocols, rules and bureaucratic dysfunctionality of health insurers, hospitals, and doctor's waiting rooms. One wonders why they don't all rise up and rail against the health care system the way Sally Field protested against the cotton mill bosses in the film Norma Rae. After all, caregivers too are underpaid, overworked, and often suffer unhealthy consequences.
The United States is projected to age significantly during the next few decades. By 2030, 20 percent of our population will be 65 and over, according to the U.S. Census Bureau's Population Projections Branch. That means many more caregivers will be needed to support the swell of people with health issues associated with aging.
The problem is, the caregiver role is not sustainable. Caregivers are plate spinners, keeping everything in the air, moving from plate to plate so that one doesn't drop and break when the patient experiences another health crisis. Caregivers are saving our society and our government billions of dollars annually through their selfless acts of volunteerism. In 2013, AARP estimated that it would cost society $470 billion for the 37 billion hours of care that 40 million caregivers gave to their parents, spouses, partners and other adult loved ones that year. This amount surpassed total Medicaid spending in 2013. Think about it. Free, non-unionized labor. Can we say Norma Rae?
It's time now to provide family caregivers the recognition and support they need as extensions and allies of the healthcare team. Caregivers make medical decisions with patients and physicians. They search for hours to investigate new treatment options and to better understand disease. They sometimes point out potential diagnoses that medical professionals would overlook. And they often take on making beds and cleaning bathrooms when the nursing home or assisted living facility is short-staffed.
The Family Caregiver Alliance published a Caregiver Bill of Rights in 2014. One of its tenets is "to expect and demand that as new strides are made in finding resources to aid physically and mentally impaired older persons in our country, similar strides will be made toward aiding and supporting caregivers."
There are laudable efforts underway to support caregivers; some have been around for a long time, others are more recent. Under the Family and Medical Leave Act, eligible workers are entitled to unpaid leave for up to 12 weeks per year without losing job security or health benefits, to care for a spouse, child or parent who has a serious health condition.
In January 2018, the President signed a new law, the Recognize, Assist, Include, Support and Engage (RAISE) Family Caregivers Act — creating a Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) advisory council charged with forging a strategy to support family caregivers. The plan, to be developed within 18 months, will address financial and workplace issues, respite care and other ways to support caregivers.
But more needs to be done by the entire health care system — health insurers, provider organizations, long term care facilities and pharmaceutical companies — to truly recognize the caregiver as a key decision-maker in care with proper support, education and knowledge sharing.
There are simple things that would validate the caregiver's role as an ally in care:
With the patient's consent, include the caregiver's name on the doctor's office intake forms so that caregivers are introduced and integrated into the physician/patient relationship from the start.
Have more widely available disease-specific videos, materials and training for caregivers so they can gain confidence in their caregiver role more quickly and reduce the stress of learning on the job.
Companies investigating new drugs should educate the caregiver on the clinical trial process and involve them when developing clinical trial protocols since caregivers often provide logistical and moral support to the patient who is a trial participant.

Organizations that focus on caregivers and patients are doing incredibly valuable policy and research work to better understand the caregiver/patient dynamic and are also advocating for change. Rx4good recently partnered with 70 nonprofit organizations including the American Heart Association, American Cancer Society, CancerCare, Caregiver Action Network, Epilepsy Foundation, Global Genes, National Alliance for Caregiving, National Stroke Association, National Alliance on Mental Illness (see list), and many more organizations to conduct research to understand the medical decision-making role of caregivers and how caregiving differs from disease to disease. The results will be presented at the annual Drug Information Association meeting in June in Boston.
By better understanding the role of the caregiver in medical decision-making, we can continue to better support and involve them in care, easing their burden and improving the health outcomes of the ones they love and support.
