Arunraj clarified details about the Thaimaman Thanga Mothiram Thittam scheme on Monday, August 24, 2026. Joyalukkas, the lowest bidder, quoted one paise for supplying one-gram gold rings in Tamil Nadu. The tender focused on additional charges, not the fixed gold price, which is set by the India Bullion and Jewellers Association. After initial controversy, work orders were given to Joyalukkas and Kalyan Jewellers in a 70:30 ratio. This fair process is expected to save the State government ₹20 to ₹25 crore annually. 💰 https://memews.com/news/health-plan-set-for-massive-godavari-pushkarams-2027-cmtdygfnl3fvvzu54 2026-08-24T17:21:39.000Z 0.6 https://th-i.thgim.com/public/incoming/empfw0/article71385993.ece/alternates/LANDSCAPE_1200/10215_24_8_2026_20_48_35_1_WHATSAPPIMAGE2026_08_24AT84753PM.JPG Health plan set for massive Godavari Pushkarams 2027 Health Minister Satya Kumar Yadav directed officials to prepare a large-scale healthcare plan for the Godavari Pushkarams 2027.

The operation is taking place in space, as LINK approaches Swift which is nearing the end of its lifespan. The mission, started in September 2025, was supposed to boost the telescope's orbit before it reenters Earth's atmosphere later this year. Due to the failure, the planned orbit-raising maneuver has been canceled, limiting the mission's scope. NASA will now rely on other missions while gathering lessons on robotic servicing. 🚀 https://memews.com/news/lpg-ekyc-deadline-extended-till-august-31-cmt7h0rddrk1a2awj5 2026-08-24T16:36:11.000Z 0.6 https://th-i.thgim.com/public/incoming/z0riyp/article71385866.ece/alternates/LANDSCAPE_1200/_NGP1319.jpg LPG eKYC deadline extended till August 31 Cooking gas households that missed the August 23 e-KYC deadline have received a breather with the last date extended to August 31.

CNN reported this analysis, stating the major crash rate in fiscal year 2026 is about 6.24 Class A mishaps per 100,000 flight hours. So far in FY2026, five Class A mishaps were recorded after logging roughly 80,171 flight hours up to August 15. This problem stems from the E-model's transmission issue, which can affect critical systems like the tail rotor and hydraulics. The exact cause of these transmission problems is still under investigation by the Army. 🚁 https://memews.com/news/man-utd-wants-loan-for-balde-barca-wants-big-sale-cmt7may56g1h0yb7i 2026-08-24T15:32:08.000Z 0.6 https://barcauniversal.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/fc-barcelona-v-real-madrid-spanish-super-cup-1-scaled.jpg Man Utd wants loan for Balde, Barca wants big sale Manchester United is pursuing a move for Barcelona defender Alejandro Balde as the transfer window nears its end.

The University of Geneva developed this framework to understand SU spins, a non-Abelian charge type, in monitored systems. Researchers found learning time shifts from L3 to L2, linking 'spin sharpening' and entanglement growth simultaneously. This behavior is tied to a diffusive background sector, similar to heat spreading through metal. Future work needs to address theoretical approximations currently used in the calculations. ⚛️ https://memews.com/news/maharashtra-hikes-puc-certificate-fees-by-20-cmt7ex636p615jqeap 2026-08-24T15:29:12.000Z 0.6 https://www.livemint.com/lm-img/img/2026/08/24/1600x900/logo/Untitled_design_-_2026-08-24T204635.460_1787584601805_1787584612656_6e48e1cb-5dba-4c31-9212-5bac4d5a6c76.png Maharashtra hikes PUC certificate fees by 20% The Maharashtra government has increased the Pollution Under Control (PUC) certificate charges for various vehicle types.

These events occur around the black hole, and astronomers noted that each subsequent flare got dimmer. The new study suggests that the star's unusually rapid spin before the first encounter is the key factor. This rapid spin alters how the stripped material behaves during later passes around the black hole. Therefore, the fading flares hint at the star's initial rotational history. 🌠 https://memews.com/news/60-extra-trains-planned-for-2027-pushkarams-cmt7ewjlrp01js43ue 2026-08-24T15:19:53.000Z 0.6 https://th-i.thgim.com/public/incoming/nv6a4t/article71385538.ece/alternates/LANDSCAPE_1200/10237_24_8_2026_19_44_40_1_WHATSAPPIMAGE2026_08_24AT65622PM.JPEG 60 extra trains planned for 2027 Pushkarams Railway authorities are planning to operate around 60 extra train services for the 2027 Godavari Pushkarams.

This system integrates elements like radars, fighters, and command centres to manage multiple threats effectively. The Battle of Britain showed this principle, and the Ukraine war continues to prove its relevance against stand-off weapons. Even advanced systems, like those used by Israel, allow some threats to penetrate. Therefore, effective air defence requires smart threat discrimination and resource management for successive attacks. 🛡️ https://memews.com/news/ysrcp-slams-government-over-karumuri-s-arrest-cmt7cpb5ql6z3tuuu 2026-08-24T14:32:42.000Z 0.6 https://memews.com/news/ap-high-court-asks-report-on-minor-sexual-abuse-case-cmt7cpg9vl71frfgq7 2026-08-24T14:32:16.000Z 0.6 https://memews.com/news/ai-threats-gitlab-bugs-and-card-hacks-this-week-cmt94w3anp62r9dvi 2026-08-24T14:32:00.000Z 0.6 https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiBxfnZQzz7hUDdRKPJM-KWXJAJemk0-S3QlOB71Z1Bq9nVxHA4G0VtkwUUVJjgO-2gtDImMt-ktLnUQd3rkScujv0fWVlfc_tr3qO7sZ-MI2QDtoyT8pKx4q_ZCndRyxhPQcNtZB70fZ4VlaBuE3YaMcE__MWrRtngOU0rTHcSmOXsGkhlARwfUkIBUj9Q/s1700-e365/recap-n.jpg AI threats, GitLab bugs, and card hacks this week The cybersecurity landscape saw several major threats this week, including AI-powered attacks targeting Siemens PLCs across critical infrastructure.

Research from Copenhagen highlighted that liraglutide helped two patients with BAD achieve remission in 2019. A 2022 trial involving 52 patients showed liraglutide reduced stool frequency in 77% versus 50% on colesevelam. Clinicians are now exploring atorvastatin as another potential treatment for this condition.

This was observed by a team at the University of Colorado by analyzing cosmic observations instead of just computer models. The study showed entanglement reduces effective distances across vast cosmic scales, with criteria met when 'r is less than 2k' on a space-like hyper-surface. This implies distant points have unexpectedly close connections, though this effect doesn't apply to local star and planet systems.

Kapil Sibal countered that the High Court's existing stay made immediate surrender unnecessary.

The ban was lifted following FSSAI's cancellation of its June 29th order, which affected sales from the Baramati plant. Old Monk maker Mohan Rocky is still contesting a similar ban before the Bombay High Court next Monday.

No need to restart the whole series. If a child misses a scheduled vaccine, there is no need to restart the entire vaccination process from scratch. Health professionals create a catch-up schedule based on the individual's age, prior records, and vaccine type. Generally, previous valid doses count even after a gap longer than recommended, though regulations vary. If records are lost, a healthcare professional analyzes available info to suggest the next steps.

The national outbreak was declared on July 4th, following the first confirmed case of a 27-year-old woman in the west African country. Currently, there are seven confirmed and 46 suspected cases, with 16 of the children under the age of four. Unicef warned that fragile health systems might mean the virus is spreading undetected, putting more children at risk. Increased surveillance and reinforcing frontline capacity are now seen as crucial steps for the region. 😟 https://memews.com/news/vinfast-vf-6-and-vf-7-prices-get-a-boost-cmt87kyuwh6177aryn 2026-08-24T10:11:08.000Z 0.6 https://memews.com/news/pixel-11-pro-bundle-drops-lowest-on-amazon-cmt79aw6fex1t1m617 2026-08-24T10:10:49.000Z 0.6 https://memews.com/news/us-sanctions-on-iran-put-china-s-oil-buying-under-the-microscope-cmt79ayfoeywh3c6a 2026-08-24T10:10:08.000Z 0.6 https://memews.com/news/editors-guild-slams-bjp-s-dimaagi-naxal-attacks-cmt73zf017dqp8ubo 2026-08-24T10:09:40.000Z 0.6 https://cf-images.assettype.com/thenewsminute%2F2026-08-24%2Fgknivryi%2FDimaginaxal.jpg?w=1200&ar=40%3A21&auto=format%2Ccompress&ogImage=true&mode=crop&enlarge=true&overlay=false&overlay_position=bottom&overlay_width=100 Editors Guild slams BJP's 'Dimaagi Naxal' attacks The Editors Guild of India strongly condemned the BJP for labeling critics like Rajdeep Sardesai as 'Dimaagi Naxals'.

Finnish security expert Mikko Hyppönen uses obsolete email software, called Eudora, as part of this 'security by antiquity' approach. Researchers at UC Davis found that older software versions used in honeypots were rarely targeted by hackers. This concept applies to simple phones, like the Nokia 9210, because nobody is actively attacking them anymore. Nations like Ireland are retaining older beacons due to resilience strategies against jamming attacks. 🛡️ https://memews.com/news/world-s-smallest-snake-found-in-barbados-after-20-years-cmt78cd9ndq1m6eu18 2026-08-24T10:00:00.000Z 0.6 https://static.toiimg.com/thumb/msid-133458160,width-1280,height-720,resizemode-6,overlay-toi_sw,pt-32,y_pad-600/photo.jpg World's smallest snake found in Barbados after 20 years Scientists in Barbados finally rediscovered the world's smallest-known snake after a nearly 20-year search.

It has been 20 years since the IAU reclassified Pluto as a dwarf planet in August 2006. This decision was made after debates started in the 1990s due to discoveries in the Kuiper belt, like Eris. The IAU established a three-point definition, with the third requiring an object to have cleared its neighborhood. Planetary astronomer Paul Byrne argues that all dwarf planets should be called planets for public understanding. He believes the 2006 decree has hindered science communication about Pluto's complex features. https://memews.com/news/crickets-in-space-iss-experiment-shows-microgravity-effects-cmt7wuk6e78o9u6po 2026-08-24T09:59:24.000Z 0.6 https://memews.com/news/baby-s-sugar-intake-shapes-brain-health-for-decades-cmt9m6vugf16mhs3v 2026-08-24T09:59:00.000Z 0.6 https://s.yimg.com/lo/mysterio/api/3b14f2470f7bffd7b35af24eb0b77e74a8530ffe15aaa7395bc80634a9b7c24f/lightyear_networkapi/resizefill_w1200%3Bquality_80%3Bformat_jpg/https%3A%2F%2Fmedia.zenfs.com%2Fen%2Ffood_wine_804%2Ff95bdcb996721fedcd87a38dc6bbc162.jpg Baby's sugar intake shapes brain health for decades A new study links lower sugar intake during the first 1,000 days to lower risks of dementia and Alzheimer's later in life. Researchers used WWII-era sugar rationing in the UK to compare over 60,000 people. Those exposed to rationing had a 46% lower risk of Alzheimer's and a 27% lower risk of dementia.

The rally has been fueled by Treasury's bond buybacks, but fiscal credibility concerns are also key drivers. Warsh could signal accommodation, market discipline, or strategic ambiguity regarding policy coordination. Only a clear defense of monetary independence directly challenges the rally's fiscal pressure assumption.

This stocky heron was observed at an artificial water reservoir in Liberia, Costa Rica. The event involved the heron repeatedly dunking a great kiskadee, happening on at least three occasions. Researchers suggest this shows the heron can opportunistically eat semi-terrestrial prey like birds. This record expands the known dietary breadth of T. mexicanum. https://memews.com/news/thunderquakes-can-x-ray-what-s-under-the-ground-cmt70mrox1r17sakj8 2026-08-24T08:47:59.000Z 0.6 https://th-i.thgim.com/public/incoming/60p8al/article71383782.ece/alternates/LANDSCAPE_1200/Sudden-rainfallG3TGCHEAR.3.jpg.jpg Thunderquakes can X-ray what's under the ground Scientists found that thunderquakes, seismic waves from lightning strikes, can map underground structures like an X-ray.

This shift is projected because Samsung's shipments are expected to rise 0.8 percent while Apple's are set to decline 2.1 percent this year. Samsung's strong performance is credited to its diverse product line and robust distribution networks. Meanwhile, Apple faces potential price increases for the iPhone 18 series and a late foldable launch.

Researchers Hiroshi Maeda and James Leebens-Mack found grasses have two starch production pathways, unlike related non-grass plants in the University of Wisconsin-Madison and University of Georgia. This second starch pathway emerged after a whole-genome duplication event in the common ancestor of grasses. This advantage might have helped grasses thrive in open, sunny environments, contributing to their massive global caloric intake. Future research could use these findings to develop crops with higher energy and stronger structures. 🌾 https://memews.com/news/marathi-rule-crackdown-sparks-driver-protests-in-mumbai-cmt8g65ihtrc6o1gp 2026-08-24T08:10:13.000Z 0.6 https://memews.com/news/man-city-eyes-injured-barcelona-midfielder-frenkie-de-jong-cmt71mciw3kwsnmfy 2026-08-24T08:10:00.000Z 0.6 https://barcauniversal.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/fc-barcelona-v-real-sociedad-laliga-ea-sports-1-scaled.jpg Man City eyes injured Barcelona midfielder Frenkie de Jong Manchester City has made an enquiry regarding Barcelona midfielder Frenkie de Jong to explore a potential signing this week.

This apparent contradiction arises from treating distance as static during the universe's expansion. The 46.5 billion light-year radius is a present comoving distance, not a simple light-travel time. When the light began its journey, the source was much closer due to the early universe's small scale factor. Therefore, the expanding geometry dictates the final large distance observed today. 🔭 https://memews.com/news/egg-throwing-sparks-clash-during-mumbai-ganesh-procession-cmt7htc8as7ohbkag 2026-08-24T04:53:00.000Z 0.6 https://static.toiimg.com/thumb/msid-133451459,width-1280,height-720,resizemode-6,overlay-toi_sw,pt-32,y_pad-600/photo.jpg Egg throwing sparks clash during Mumbai Ganesh procession Tension erupted in Mumbai's Mazgaon area on Sunday night following a clash during the Ganesh idol procession.

This realization intensified fears as germ theory gained ground, highlighting transmission risks to European residents. 😷 https://memews.com/news/jurel-near-century-as-rain-halts-ind-vs-sl-test-cmt70jtw41m1nxbmoi 2026-08-24T02:59:30.000Z 0.6 https://www.hindustantimes.com/ht-img/img/2026/08/24/1600x900/logo/PTI08-24-2026-000128B-0_1787559953621_1787559969642_95edc3c9-4775-4f92-ae7c-971d7235a9f3.jpg Jurel near century as rain halts IND vs SL test 🌧️ Play in the 2nd Test between India and Sri Lanka was interrupted by rain on Day 2.

This gene swapping, known as horizontal gene transfer, was observed in nearly 98% of 676 microbe species studied. These genes often allow microbes to produce energy from atmospheric gases, a process called aerotrophy. This mechanism is vital in the harsh Antarctic soils where other resources are scarce.

This process involves nitrate and non-haem iron found in vegetables and beans, leading to dinitrosyl iron complexes (DNICs). Studies on mice showed higher DNIC levels correlated with lower blood pressure and better blood sugar control. This finding suggests a new link explaining why vegetable-rich diets lower disease risks.

The threat was made as Washington planned to announce a fresh round of economic sanctions targeting Iran and its trade partners.

Researchers from NASA Ames and Stanford used bone-density data from 69 astronauts on short flights to build this projection. The model predicts significant bone mineral density loss for conjunction-class missions lasting 1,000 to 1,200 days. This extrapolation doesn't account for countermeasures like exercise, which were absent in the initial 69 astronaut data. Therefore, this should be viewed as a stress test for mission planning, not a final diagnosis. https://memews.com/news/usd-dips-cad-gains-strength-in-forex-moves-cmt6mfzxbl01il37uk 2026-08-24T00:59:00.000Z 0.6 https://www.forexfactory.com/news/1414602-fx-futures-positioning-usd-falls-cad-strengthens-jpy/image USD dips, CAD gains strength in forex moves Net-long exposure to the US dollar is decreasing, though the pace hasn't been as fast as expected in recent reports.
