A real photo from the hijacking of a Turkish Airlines flight traveling from Munich to Ankara in 1980. The incident occurred during a period when aircraft hijackings were becoming more common across the world, often carried out by individuals or groups trying to gain political leverage or international attention. In this case, the hijackers took control of the plane shortly after takeoff and issued demands connected to political tensions of the time.

The crew attempted to keep passengers calm while maintaining communication with authorities on the ground. Negotiators worked for hours to deescalate the situation, and security forces prepared for possible intervention. The standoff highlighted the growing need for stronger aviation security measures, and events like this helped shape later policies that improved screening procedures and international cooperation.

The hijacking ended after lengthy negotiations, and the photo remains a stark reminder of the fear and uncertainty that passengers and crew endured during airline crises of that era.

Serena Winters — widely recognized as the Lakers’ sideline reporter — became a fan favorite thanks to her wholesome pregame fist-bump tradition with the team.
Before each tipoff, she’d make her way down the sideline, offering every player a quick fist bump, a ritual that stars like Kobe Bryant, Pau Gasol, and Nick Young gladly joined in on.

What made it special was its authenticity. Nothing about it felt staged; it was a genuine moment of connection that reflected the trust and camaraderie she’d built within the organization. Fans began looking forward to it every game, and clips of the fist bumps regularly went viral for their simple, feel-good charm.

The tradition became one of the most memorable sideline moments in Lakers media — a reminder that even in a high-pressure sport, the smallest gestures can leave the biggest impact.

#Latvia is grappling with one of Europe’s most unusual demographic imbalances — a gap so wide that women outnumber men by more than 80,000. The divide stems from decades of migration patterns, health disparities, and population shifts that never fully rebounded after the post-Soviet transition.

For years, young men have emigrated at higher rates, while significantly lower male life expectancy has further skewed the population. Together, these trends have created a demographic ratio that influences everything from dating culture to workforce stability and long-term economic planning.

Now, the government must confront a shrinking labor force and a deepening gender gap that shows no sign of reversing. It’s a stark reminder that demographics are more than statistics — they shape a nation’s future.

At the end of October, 31 Rockstar devs who were working on GTA 6 were laid off. The employees claimed it had to do with union busting while Rockstar has denied that as the case. In response Rockstar said it was because there was leaking of confidential information via Discord chat.

The UK Government now plans to intervene with the Prime Minister Kier Starmer stating, “It’s a deeply concerning case. Every worker has the right to join a trade union. And we’re determined to strengthen workers’ rights and ensure they don’t face unfair consequences for being part of a union.”

NCP MP Supriya Sule has introduced a Private Member’s Bill in the Lok Sabha — the Right to Disconnect Bill, 2025 — aiming to give employees the legal right to ignore work calls, texts, and emails after office hours.

According to PTI, the bill proposes creating an Employees’ Welfare Authority, which would ensure that workers are not forced to respond to official communication beyond work hours or on holidays.

The idea is simple:
Protect work–life balance
Reduce burnout
Give employees the legal freedom to “switch off”

But there’s one catch:
Private Member’s Bills rarely become law.
They mostly serve to spark discussion — and this one has definitely reignited India’s workplace boundaries debate.

Should India legally enforce the right to disconnect?
