This insect makes a house of silk and leaves and then carries it everywhere on its back

Bagworm caterpillars have an unusual way of protecting themselves. They build portable cases using silk produced by their own bodies and materials such as leaves, twigs and plant debris. The caterpillar carries this case wherever it moves, using it as both shelter and camouflage. The case grows as the caterpillar grows, with more material added to its outer surface. Some cases are made with tiny sticks and can resemble miniature log cabins, helping the insect blend into its surroundings.

Yuvraj Singh Set For DC Batting Coach Role? Ganguly Link Points To IPL 2027 Plans

Yuvraj Singh Set For DC Batting Coach Role? Ganguly Link Points To IPL 2027 Plans

Delhi Capitals could be heading for a major change in their coaching setup ahead of IPL 2027, with Yuvraj Singh emerging as a possible candidate for the batting coach role. His appearance alongside Sourav Ganguly at the franchise’s Bengaluru trials has added weight to the speculation. Yuvraj Singh And Sourav Ganguly Attend DC Trials Yuvraj Singh and Sourav Ganguly were both involved in Delhi Capitals’ trials at the Just Cricket Academy in Bengaluru. Yuvraj was seen closely watching the batters from behind the umpire and offering guidance during the session. Ganguly, meanwhile, oversaw the trials alongside former India spinner Amit Mishra. His presence carries particular significance because he has served as JSW Sports’ Director of Cricket since 2024. Ganguly previously worked with Delhi Capitals as a mentor in 2019 before becoming BCCI president. He is now being linked with a bigger role in the franchise’s cricket operations ahead of the 2027 season. Yuvraj Singh Linked With DC Batting Coach Role Reports have suggested that Yuvraj could join Delhi Capitals as their batting coach. The appointment would mark his first official IPL coaching role, although he has already worked closely with several young Indian batters. Abhishek Sharma, Shubman Gill, Prabhsimran Singh, Abdul Samad and Sanju Samson have all been linked with Yuvraj's mentoring work. He has also worked with Rishabh Pant, who trained with him in Mumbai before IPL 2026. Yuvraj's experience in developing young players could make him an attractive option for a Delhi Capitals side looking to strengthen its batting group and build for the future. Delhi Capitals Preparing For A Fresh IPL 2027 Setup Delhi Capitals missed the playoffs in IPL 2025 and 2026, finishing sixth in the 2026 season. The franchise is also entering a new phase of its ownership arrangement, with JSW Sports taking operational control from GMR Group. That change could lead to a reshuffle of the coaching and support staff. The current setup includes Venugopal Rao, Hemang Badani, Munaf Patel and Ian Bell, although no official announcement has been made about their futures. Delhi Capitals remain one of the original IPL franchises without a title. Their best finish came in 2020, when they reached the final. Ganguly And Yuvraj Could Form New DC Leadership Group The presence of Ganguly and Yuvraj together at the Bengaluru trials has therefore raised questions about Delhi Capitals’ plans for IPL 2027. There is still no official confirmation that Yuvraj will become the franchise’s batting coach, or that Ganguly will take over as head coach or director of cricket. For now, their involvement at the trials is the clearest indication that changes could be coming. The next round of Delhi Capitals trials is scheduled to take place in Delhi from September 10, with 15 players set to progress from the Bengaluru stage. The franchise will then have to finalise its squad and coaching structure ahead of the new IPL cycle.

New Bajaj Pulsar N160 S, N160 SS First Look: More Power, New Features

S means more sporty and the Pulsar range has been expanded now with the new Pulsar N160 range. It is priced at Rs 1.34 lakh and Rs 1.43 lakh while the Pular N160 will also be continuing to be sold. Prices have gone up at Rs 10,708 for the N160 S and Rs 14,089 for the N160 SS. More power available Of course the big talking point would be the new 164.5cc single cylinder 4 valve engine. Power is 18.5 bhp and 14.5Nm. Hence the power has now been increased by 2.5 bhp from 16bhp. Also the bikes now get electric throttle which means Road, Rain and Sport along with an offroad ride mode have been added. There is also crawl technology which means you need low clutch input at low speeds. The SS trim meanwhile adds in a further traction control feature. The gearbox meanwhile is a 5 speed which means 0-100 is 4.5 seconds. Also Read : Forget Old Colours As Carmakers Are Experimenting Like Volkswagen Virtus Anniversary Edition Other changes You also get a 37mm USD fork vs the old 33mm. the N160 SS meanwhile also gets a new TFT display with Google maps mirroring, adjustable levers, Bluetooth and WiFi. Colour options include in Atlantic Boue, Brooklyn Black, Pearl Metalic white and more. Visually, the stance remains with a sportier look but there are newer graphics now and coloured wheels. Hence, these two new bikes receive subtle updates and make them a better option while it is not replacing but positioned above the standard two valve N160 model. Overall, this is the most powerful 160cc Pulsar yet while being amongst the most powerful in its class with these upgrades. These changes make it more competitive with rivals like the TVS Apache RTR 160 4V and Hero Xtreme 160R 4V. ALSO READ: Tata Nexon Camo Edition Gets Feature Boost: Price, Variants And What's New

ABP LIVE Doc Talk | Lung Cancer In Non-Smokers: What Are The Hidden Risk Factors?

There are Occurences of a few cases in our clinical practice when we have encountered the disease in young non-smokers also. It highlights the fact that Lung cancer is no longer a smoker's disease. In this article, we analyse the non-smoking causes of Lung cancer. Lung Cancer In Non-Smokers The incidence of lung cancer is rising globally as well as in India, and it is the leading cause of cancer mortality and morbidity worldwide.  About  2.5 million people ( both men and women) were diagnosed with lung cancer annually worldwide in 2022, accounting for an age-adjusted standardized ratio of approximately 24 cases per 100,000 people. There has been a marked change in aetiology and patterns of this cancer in the last few decades. It has been observed that lung cancer incidence in males has decreased in the majority of countries during the past 3-4 decades, while incidence is rising among ladies. This brings us to the point: Is smoking the only cause of Lung Cancer? The most debatable point is whether lung cancer can be called a smoker’s disease. The answer is that we can not blame smoking entirely for Lung cancer because other non-smoking factors are responsible for this disease. So let us know what the other factors are responsible for this deadly disease. ALSO READ | ABP LIVE Doc Talk | High-Risk Pregnancy: 10 Warning Signs You Should Never Ignore Pollution And Other Environmental Risks Indian metropolitan cities like Delhi, Mumbai, and Kolkata, people are exposed to Pollution and other toxic substances in the air which are responsible for the increased incidence of Lung cancer.  Indoor biomass smoke has been identified as one of the other causative agents of lung cancer, which may eliminate the sole idea of Lung cancer caused by smoking only, particularly in household ladies. This kind of demographic profile of disease has forced clinicians to put a considerable risk of suspicion for non-smoker personnel, particularly ladies. ALSO READ | ABP LIVE Doc Talk | Is Excessive Screen Time Quietly Increasing India's Lifestyle Disease Burden? How Non-Smokers Can Lower Their Risk As an Oncologist Non Smokers who get lung cancer ask me” Doctor, how can I lower my Lung cancer risk when I do not smoke?” My answer is: You can help lower your risk of lung cancer by staying away from secondhand smoke, diesel exhaust, and other air pollution, as well as asbestos, arsenic, and some forms of silica and chromium. You should avoid places with suspicious high Radon gas levels:  Lung cancer in India is not only caused by tobacco smoking but also by other factors like indoor biomass exposure, environmental pollution, asbestos, and silica exposure. We come across so many young non-smokers who suffer from this disease. These facts point out that lung cancer is not related to smoking entirely but is caused by other non-smoking factors. In India, some of the studies have shown that in 35- 40% of cases, the disease is not related to smoking alone. Besides environmental factors, genetic susceptibility also needs consideration.

Scientists bred 39 surviving clams in Florida’s Indian River Lagoon; they have since outplanted 65 million

Florida's Indian River Lagoon shows signs of recovery after decades of environmental decline. Scientists are restoring critical habitats like reefs, shellfish beds, seagrass, and wetlands. Efforts focus on reintroducing clams, which were nearly extinct due to overharvesting and algal blooms. Millions of juvenile and adult "super clams" have been released into the lagoon. Local governments are addressing runoff issues to support the lagoon's ongoing restoration.

Environment

In 2002, a Kansas landowner began restoring 320 neglected acres with winter burns; 20 years later, native tallgrass and wildflowers had returned

Mike Moddrell revived tallgrass prairie on his Kansas land using controlled winter burns. This ancient Indigenous practice effectively combats invasive woody plants and stimulates native grass growth. While fire alone is insufficient, herbicides also help manage non-indigenous species. Such efforts are crucial as less than one percent of tallgrass prairie remains intact. Protecting these grasslands benefits biodiversity, carbon absorption, and water filtration.

Delhi-Gurgaon Rains: 6 Essential Tips To Keep Your Car Safe On Waterlogged Roads

Heavy rain in Delhi and Gurgaon can turn even a routine drive into a serious challenge. Along with traffic congestion, waterlogging is one of the biggest hazards motorists face during the monsoon, making it important to take extra precautions before and while driving. From avoiding flooded stretches to knowing what to do if your car gets stuck, a few simple measures can help reduce the risk of an accident or costly vehicle damage. Don't Drive With Hazard Lights On One of the most common mistakes motorists make during heavy rain is switching on their hazard lights while driving. Hazard lights are intended for vehicles that are stationary or parked in situations where they need to warn other road users. Using them while moving can confuse other drivers and also prevent you from clearly indicating when you are changing direction. Instead, use your regular headlights and turn indicators appropriately, while maintaining greater awareness of surrounding traffic. Maintain A Longer Distance From Other Cars Visibility can deteriorate quickly during heavy rainfall, while wet roads increase the time required to bring a vehicle to a complete stop. Drivers should therefore leave a larger gap between their vehicle and the car ahead. A greater following distance gives you additional time to react if the vehicle in front brakes suddenly or encounters a flooded patch. Avoid tailgating, particularly on roads where standing water makes conditions unpredictable. ALSO READ: Tata Nexon Camo Edition Gets Feature Boost: Price, Variants And What's New Slow Down And Avoid Sudden Braking Reducing speed is another crucial precaution during heavy rain. Wet roads can increase braking distances and raise the risk of aquaplaning, where tyres lose contact with the road surface because of a layer of water. Maintaining a steady and controlled speed can help the driver retain better control of the vehicle. Sudden or hard braking should be avoided wherever possible. Smooth acceleration, steering and braking are preferable when road conditions are slippery. Avoid Flooded Roads Wherever Possible The safest approach to a waterlogged road is simply to avoid it. If there is no alternative and you have to cross a flooded stretch, assess the situation carefully before proceeding. Avoid driving through the middle of a deeply flooded road and, where possible, choose the extreme side of the road after assessing the depth and condition of the surface. However, never attempt to cross water if you cannot reasonably judge how deep it is or whether the road underneath remains safe. Never Restart A Car That Stalls In Water If your vehicle stops while crossing a flooded stretch, do not attempt to restart the engine. Trying to restart a stalled vehicle in deep water can cause further engine damage, particularly if water has entered the engine. The safer option is to leave the vehicle if conditions permit and seek professional assistance. A stalled car should not be repeatedly started in an attempt to get it moving again. ALSO READ: Mini Countryman C Review: The Luxury SUV That Delivers More For Less? Check The Situation Before You Leave The best way to deal with waterlogged roads is to avoid putting yourself in that situation whenever possible. Before starting a journey during heavy rain, check the road and traffic conditions and plan your route accordingly. If severe waterlogging is expected, consider postponing the trip or using an alternative mode of transport. For motorists who must drive, planning ahead, keeping speeds under control and avoiding flooded stretches can make a significant difference. During heavy Delhi-NCR rains, the safest journey may ultimately be the one you decide not to make.

ABP LIVE Doc Talk | High-Risk Pregnancy: 10 Warning Signs You Should Never Ignore

Pregnancy is one of the most exciting phases in a woman's life, filled with hope and anticipation. While most pregnancies progress normally, some require closer medical supervision due to an increased risk of complications. A high-risk pregnancy does not mean that something will definitely go wrong; it simply indicates that the mother, the baby, or both need additional monitoring and specialized care to ensure a safe pregnancy and delivery. With advances in maternal healthcare, early diagnosis, regular antenatal check-ups, and timely intervention, most women with high-risk pregnancies go on to deliver healthy babies. The key lies in recognizing risk factors early and never ignoring warning signs. What Is a High-Risk Pregnancy? Several medical conditions and pregnancy-related factors can increase the likelihood of complications. A pregnancy may be classified as high risk if the expectant mother has: High blood pressure or develops preeclampsia Diabetes, either pre-existing or gestational diabetes Thyroid, kidney, or heart disease Autoimmune disorders such as lupus A history of recurrent miscarriages, stillbirth, or preterm birth A multiple pregnancy, such as twins or triplets Maternal age below 18 years or above 35 years Obesity or severe anemia It is equally important to remember that complications can sometimes arise even in women with previously healthy pregnancies. This is why regular antenatal care is essential for every expectant mother, regardless of her medical history. Warning Signs That Should Never Be Ignored Pregnancy-related complications often present with warning symptoms that require immediate medical evaluation. Expectant mothers should seek urgent medical attention if they experience: Severe headache that does not improve with rest Blurred vision or seeing flashes of light Sudden swelling of the face, hands, or feet Heavy vaginal bleeding Leakage of fluid from the vagina before labour Severe abdominal pain or persistent contractions Reduced or absent fetal movements after the baby has started moving regularly High fever Breathlessness or chest pain Convulsions or loss of consciousness These symptoms should never be ignored or postponed until the next scheduled appointment. Early medical intervention can prevent serious complications and improve outcomes for both mother and baby. Why Regular Antenatal Visits Are So Important Routine antenatal visits are much more than a standard pregnancy check-up. They provide valuable opportunities to detect potential complications before they become serious.During these visits, healthcare providers monitor blood pressure, assess the baby's growth and development, perform essential blood investigations and ultrasound examinations, review medications, and identify any emerging health concerns. They also help determine the safest timing and mode of delivery based on the mother's condition and the baby's wellbeing.Many pregnancy complications, including preeclampsia, gestational diabetes, fetal growth restriction, and anemia, can be effectively managed when detected early through regular prenatal care. What Every Expectant Mother Can Do Although not every complication can be prevented, adopting healthy habits and remaining vigilant can significantly reduce risks.Every pregnant woman should: Attend all scheduled antenatal appointments without fail. Take prescribed medicines, iron, calcium, and other supplements regularly. Monitor fetal movements as advised by her obstetrician. Eat a balanced, nutrient-rich diet and stay well hydrated. Remain physically active if recommended by the treating doctor. Avoid smoking, alcohol, and recreational drugs. Identify the nearest emergency hospital and keep important medical records and emergency contact numbers readily accessible. Simple preventive measures combined with regular medical supervision play a crucial role in ensuring a safer pregnancy.

Rahul Gandhi Does Martial Arts, Swimming And Yoga: What Each Can Do For Your Health

Fitness does not always have to mean following a strict workout plan, according to Rahul Gandhi. The Congress leader has spoken about how he approaches exercise as a regular part of his daily life rather than something he does only when he finds spare time. From martial arts and swimming to running and yoga, his routine includes a variety of physical activities. Gandhi said the key is to stay consistent and allow the benefits to build over time. He also stressed that exercise alone cannot compensate for unhealthy eating habits or excessive alcohol consumption, describing fitness as requiring a balanced approach. Rahul Gandhi's Fitness Routine For Rahul Gandhi, the biggest part of staying fit is not sticking to one particular form of exercise. He believes making physical activity a regular habit is more important. “The thing about fitness that's important is not really the routine you follow. It's being persistent, doing it continuously, and allowing it to compound.” ALSO READ | Budget Traveller | Gangeshwar Mahadev Temple: Explore This Coastal Shiva Shrine Near Diu Under Rs 12,000 Gandhi said he usually combines several activities rather than depending on just one workout. His routine includes martial arts, swimming and running, while yoga is a more recent addition. “Generally, I do a little bit of martial arts, which I like. I do a little bit of swimming and running. Now these days I've started, uh, yoga, which is, uh, which is quite interesting.” The mix allows him to work on different aspects of fitness instead of focusing solely on strength or cardio. ALSO READ | Pet First | Furry Babies Drinking Less Water? 5 Tips To Keep Them Hydrated Making Fitness Part Of Life Gandhi also explained that exercise is not something he leaves for his free time. He considers it part of his work life and deliberately sets aside an hour for physical training. “It is part of my work life to do one hour of building strength, building aerobic capacity, building flexibility.”           View this post on Instagram                       A post shared by Bharat Jodo (@bharatjodo) His approach is particularly focused on consistency. Even when his schedule gets demanding, he said he makes sure to find time for exercise. “So it's not something I do in my free time; it's something that I make time for regardless of what happens.” He added that the timing does not matter as much as completing the activity. If necessary, he is prepared to work out late at night rather than skip it altogether. “If I have to do it at eleven at night, I'll do it at eleven at night.” Fitness Also Depends On Diet Gandhi's comments also highlight an important part of fitness that often gets overlooked: everyday lifestyle choices. According to him, regular exercise cannot compensate for consistently unhealthy habits. “If you are eating badly or you're drinking a lot of alcohol or, you know, you're snacking all the time, then forget all this fitness stuff.” He believes fitness works best when exercise, food and other lifestyle choices are considered together rather than separately. “Don't bother with it because it doesn't work. It only works if you take it as a composite thing.” Rahul Gandhi's fitness philosophy ultimately centres on consistency and balance. His routine may include different forms of exercise, but his larger point is simple: staying fit requires regular effort as well as sensible lifestyle choices.
