In fact, there's no way on Earth for NASA astronauts Barry «Butch» Wilmore and Tracy Dyson to show up at Providence Baptist Church. They're in space, orbiting the planet. More specifically, these two members are working on the International Space Station together. Like many astronauts before them, they brought along their faith when they launched into space. «God uses all of us in pretty neat ways, and I think I get the most joy from what I do thinking about it in those terms,» said Dyson, discussing her job on the «Bible Project» podcast ahead of her March launch on a Russian Soyuz spacecraft.

Olympics organizers said Sunday that arbitrary testing imposed on boxers Imane Khelif and Lin Yu-Ting that led to a storm of vitriol misidentifying the women as transgender or men was «so flawed that it's impossible to engage with it.» International Olympic Committee spokesman Mark Adams again vigorously defended Khelif of Algeria and Lin of Taiwan, hammering the sport's now-banned governing body, the International Boxing Association, that claimed the fighters failed unspecified eligibility tests for women's competition. The two athletes were «carted off and tested» during the 2023 boxing world championships because «there were suspicions against them,» Adams said, slamming the process that singled them out. «I need hardly say if we start acting on suspicions against every athlete of whatever, then we go down a very bad route,» he said. He rejected the testing in its entirety.

Vinesh Phogat will have to shake off a tumultuous build-up to the Paris Games when she takes mat, aiming for an elusive Olympic medal, while five of her colleagues will also strive to write their own success stories at the biggest stage when the wrestling event begins here Monday. Vinesh is easily India's most accomplished woman wrestler, with two World Championships, three CWG and eight Asian Championships medals adorning her cabinet, but her previous two Olympic campaigns have ended in heartbreaks. She had returned from Rio (2016) with just a broken leg, but from Tokyo (2021), she came back with her soul scarred after a crushing defeat 'by fall' in the quarterfinals. She was accused of misconduct and suspended by the WFI for several alleged transgressions. She claimed to have endured bouts of depression, and she was not sure of returning to the mat but she did. Not only she returned but also waged a battle outside the mat when she accused the WFI chief of sexual misconduct.

Apple asked a US judge to dismiss a lawsuit by federal and state anti-trust regulators accusing it of illegally monopolising the smartphone market, saying the case would have a judge redesign its popular iPhone. Apple was accused of an illegal monopoly on smartphones, which is allegedly maintained by imposing contractual restrictions on, and withholding critical access from, developers. However, Apple argued that putting reasonable limitations on third-party developers’ access to its technology did not amount to anti-competitive behaviour, and forcing it to share technology with competitors would chill innovation. Apple also argued that the lawsuit fails to raise any evidence that its practices harm competition or consumers, who it says plausibly switch to a competitor if they dislike what iPhone features.

Uttar Pradesh Minister and Nishad Party chief Sanjay Nishad lashed out at the Samajwadi Party (SP) for remaining silent on the rape of a minor girl in Ayodhya and accused the party of attempting to 'protect' SP leader Moeed Khan, who is the main accused in the case.

Those who raise the slogans of PDA and feel proud of the fact that they won in Ayodhya, it seems that they have won with the help of these criminals.

I thank the UP Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath that he has taken cognizance and action in the case. I just hope that how I can protect my community,» he added.
