Abdullah also directed for establishment of joint control rooms in all districts to handle winter-related complaints promptly. An official spokesperson said the meeting was held at the civil secretariat here during which the chief minister also stressed the importance of a swift response system to minimize public inconvenience and ensure seamless delivery of essential services. Abdullah reviewed the preparedness of various departments to address challenges posed by harsh winter conditions, particularly in the snow-bound zones of Kashmir Valley and Jammu Division. The chief minister conducted a department-wise review of the winter preparedness measures, the spokesperson said. During the meeting, Abdullah emphasized the need for a robust mechanism to minimize public inconvenience during severe weather conditions. He also engaged with deputy commissioners to assess district-level preparedness and urged them to prioritize timely and effective responses to weather-related challenges. The meeting was attended by Deputy Chief Minister Surinder Choudhary, Minister for Health and Medical Education Sakina Itoo, Minister for Jal Shakti and Tribal Affairs Javed Ahmad Rana, Minister for Agriculture Javaid Ahmad Dar, and Minister for Transport Satish Sharma. Abdullah stressed the importance of keeping men and machinery in a state of readiness to ensure the routine functioning of essential installations. He directed the departments to prioritize uninterrupted trade, transport, and essential supplies while addressing disruptions caused by snow, waterlogging, or power outages. On snow clearance, he was briefed that a sufficient number of hi-tech machines have been deployed, with additional machines on standby to handle heavy snowfall.

That game had everything. Recommended Videos Underdog Boise State took a 28-10 lead over one of college football's blue bloods that was followed by a 25-point Sooners run capped by what could have been a back-breaking interception return for a touchdown with 1:02 left. Then the Broncos used three trick plays that remain sensations to not only force overtime but win 43-42. And then there was the marriage proposal by Boise State running back Ian Johnson — shortly after scoring the winning two-point play — to cheerleader Chrissy Popadics that was accepted on national TV. That game put Broncos football on the national map for most fans, but looking back 18 years later, Petersen sees it differently. “Everybody wants to talk about that Oklahoma Fiesta Bowl game, which is great how it all worked out and all those things,” Petersen said. “But we go back to play TCU (three years later) again on the big stage. It's not as flashy a game, but to me, that was an even better win.” Going back to the Fiesta Bowl and winning, Petersen reasoned, showed the Broncos weren't a splash soon to fade away, that there was something longer lasting and more substantive happening on the famed blue turf. The winning has continued with few interruptions. No. 8 and third-seeded Boise State is preparing for another trip to the Fiesta Bowl, this time in a playoff quarterfinal against No. 5 and sixth-seeded Penn State on New Year's Eve. That success has continued through a series of coaches, though with a lot more of a common thread than readily apparent. Dirk Koetter was hired from Oregon, where Petersen was the wide receivers coach. Not only did Koetter bring Petersen with him to Oregon, Petersen introduced him to Dan Hawkins, who also was hired for the staff. So the transition from Koetter to Hawkins to Petersen ensured at least some level of consistency. Koetter and Hawkins engineered double-digit victory seasons five times over a six-year span that led to power-conference jobs. Koetter went to Arizona State after three seasons and Hawkins to Colorado after five. Then when Petersen became the coach after the 2005 season, he led Boise State to double-digit wins his first seven seasons and made bowls all eight years. He resisted the temptation to leave for a power-conference program until Washington lured him away toward the end of the 2013 season. Then former Boise State quarterback and offensive coordinator Bryan Harsin took over and posted five double-digit victory seasons over his first six years. After going 5-2 during the COVID-shortened 2020 season, he left for Auburn. “They just needed consistency of leadership,” said Koetter, who is back as Boise State's offensive coordinator. “This program had always won at the junior-college level, the Division II level, the I-AA (now FCS) level.” But Koetter referred to “an unfortunate chain of events” that made Boise State a reclamation project when he took over in 1998. Coach Pokey Allen led Boise State to the Division I-AA national championship game in 1994, but was diagnosed with cancer two days later. He died on Dec. 30, 1996, at 53. Allen coached the final two games that season, Boise State's first in Division I-A (now FBS). Houston Nutt became the coach in 1997, went 4-7 and headed to Arkansas. Then Koetter took over. “One coach dies and the other wasn't the right fit for this program,” Koetter said. “Was a really good coach, did a lot of good things, but just wasn't a good fit for here.” But because of Boise State's success at the lower levels, Koetter said the program was set up for success. “As Boise State has risen up the conference food chain, they’ve pretty much always been at the top from a player talent standpoint,” Koetter said. “So it was fairly clear if we got things headed in the right direction and did a good job recruiting, we would be able to win within our conference for sure.” Success didn't take long. He went 6-5 in 1998 and then won 10 games each of the following two seasons. Hawkins built on that winning and Petersen took it to another level. But there is one season, really one game, no really one half that still bugs Petersen. He thought his best team was in 2010, one that entered that late-November game at Nevada ranked No. 3 and had a legitimate chance to play for the national championship. The Colin Kaepernick-led Wolf Pack won 34-31. “I think the best team that I might've been a part of as the head coach was the team that lost one game to Nevada,” Petersen said. "That team, to me, played one poor half of football on offense the entire season. We were winning by a bunch at half (24-7) and we came out and did nothing on offense in the second half and still had a chance to win. “That team would've done some damage.” There aren't any what-ifs with this season's Boise State team. The Broncos are in the field of the first 12-team playoff, representing the Group of Five as its highest-ranked conference champion. That got Boise State a bye into the quarterfinals. Spencer Danielson has restored the championship-level play after taking over as the interim coach late last season during a rare downturn that led to Andy Avalos' dismissal . Danielson received the job full time after leading Boise State to the Mountain West championship . Now the Broncos are 12-1 with their only defeat to top-ranked and No. 1 seed Oregon on a last-second field goal . Running back Ashton Jeanty also was the runner-up to the Heisman Trophy . “Boise State has been built on the backs of years and years of success way before I got here,” Danielson said. "So even this season is not because of me. It’s because the group of young men wanted to leave a legacy, be different. We haven’t been to the Fiesta Bowl in a decade. They said in January, ‘We’re going to get that done.’ They went to work.” As was the case with Danielson, Petersen and Koetter said attracting top talent is the primary reason Boise State has succeeded all these years. Winning, obviously, is the driving force, and with more entry points to the playoffs, the Broncos could make opportunities to keep returning to the postseason a selling point. But there's also something about the blue carpet. Petersen said he didn't get what it was about when he arrived as an assistant coach, and there was some talk about replacing it with more conventional green grass. A poll in the Idaho Statesman was completely against that idea, and Petersen has come to appreciate what that field means to the program. “It's a cumulative period of time where young kids see big-time games when they're in seventh and eighth and ninth and 10th grade and go, ‘Oh, I know that blue turf. I want to go there,’” Petersen said. ___ Get poll alerts and updates on the AP Top 25 throughout the season. Sign up here .

Alternative healer gets 10 years in UK prison for death of woman at slap therapy workshop LONDON (AP) — An alternative healer who advocated “slapping therapy” to treat a range of maladies has been sentenced to 10 years in prison for the death of a 71-year-old diabetic woman who stopped taking insulin during his workshop. Hongchi Xiao, 61, was sentenced Friday after being convicted of manslaughter by gross negligence for failing to get medical help for Danielle Carr-Gomm in 2016. Prosecutors say she was howling in pain and frothing at the mouth during the fourth day of a workshop. The California healer promoted paida lajin therapy that advocates slapping to release “poisonous waste” from the body. He was previously convicted of manslaughter in the death of a six-year-old boy in Australia. Stellantis recalling more than 300,000 Ram trucks for braking system defect Stellantis is recalling more than 300,000 Ram Heavy Duty pickup trucks because a faulty part could cause certain braking and tracking systems to fail.

Last week, the federal government's decision to change the Future Fund's investment mandate drew some heavy criticism. Senior members of the Howard Coalition government, which created the Future Fund in 2006, blasted the decision. They said the Future Fund had to be left alone, free from political interference, so it could keep investing in areas of the global economy it thought would make the best financial returns. Government tells Future Fund to invest in climate and housing Photo shows A man and a woman, both wearing suit jackets. Australia's $230 billion sovereign wealth fund would retain its focus on making a return. David Murray, the Future Fund's inaugural chairman, said the fund's "independence" was the bedrock of its investing success and reputation as a sovereign wealth fund, and we shouldn't mess with it. "It was never the subject of politicisation of its investments," he told Sky News. But that statement of his wasn't completely accurate. You don't have to look too far to find an example of the Future Fund's investments being politicised. It happened in the last 12 months, thanks to a Coalition senator. And the notion that the Future Fund's "independence" is a politically neutral state of affairs is worth questioning too, because its investments have political consequences. The owners of sovereign wealth funds in other parts of the world recognise that. That's why they give their funds much stricter investment orders. What has the federal government done? The Future Fund's investment mandate is well known. It is required to achieve an average annual return of 4-5 percentage points above headline inflation every year over the long term, with an acceptable but not excessive risk. The federal government says that's not going to change. What is the Future Fund?

Bill Belichick “couldn’t care less” about the 48-year age gap he shares with girlfriend Jordon Hudson , a source exclusively tells Page Six. The former New England Patriots head coach “couldn’t care less about the age difference,” our insider says, “because he appreciates Jordon for the woman that she is .” “Jordon is an old soul so she and Bill connect on a deep level,” our source tells us. “Age is just a number to them.” Belichick, 72, and the former cheerleader, 24, also “don’t listen to the haters because their relationship is the real deal.” According to the source, the famed football coach and Hudson are “in love” and “don’t care what anybody thinks.” The couple — who reportedly started dating in 2022 — made their red carpet debut at The Museum Gala at New York City’s American Museum of Natural History on Thursday. “Bill was so proud to have Jordon by his side,” our insider tells Page Six. “They have a genuine connection and mutual respect for one another,” and “connect on so many levels despite what some may think.” The pair “both enjoy sports, and they both have a love for nature and the outdoors .” Reps for Belichick and Hudson did not immediately respond to Page Six’s requests for comment. Although the New York gala marked the first time the couple stepped out together on a red carpet, the pair — who have reportedly been living together for months — have been documenting their relationship for followers on social media. In November, the twosome revealed they spent Halloween together as they showed off their mermaid and fisherman couple’s costume for their fans. Hudson shared snapshots of the duo on the beach which showed her lying in the sand with a mermaid tail and matching top. Belichick playfully posed with a fishing line as if he were reeling in his cute catch. One month prior, Hudson posted a collection of photos from their adventures over the past summer, including a getaway to Croatia and several romantic dates.People who have just turned 18 urged to check if they can claim £2,212 left in forgotten accounts for a Christmas boost
