His more than two dozen books included nonfiction, poetry, fiction, religious meditations and a children’s story. His memoir “An Hour Before Daylight” was a Pulitzer Prize finalist in 2002, while his 2006 best-seller “Palestine: Peace Not Apartheid” stirred a fierce debate by likening Israel’s policies in the West Bank to the brutal South African system of racial segregation. And just before his 100th birthday, the Dayton Literary Peace Prize Foundation honored him with a lifetime achievement award for how he wielded “the power of the written word to foster peace, social justice, and global understanding.” In one recent work, “A Full Life,” Carter observed that he “enjoyed writing” and that his books “provided a much-needed source of income.” But some projects were easier than others. “Everything to Gain,” a 1987 collaboration with his wife, Rosalynn, turned into the “worst threat we ever experienced in our marriage,” an intractable standoff for the facilitator of the Camp David accords and winner of the Nobel Peace Prize. According to Carter, Rosalynn was a meticulous author who considered “the resulting sentences as though they have come down from Mount Sinai, carved into stone.” Their memories differed on various events and they fell into “constant arguments.” They were ready to abandon the book and return the advance, until their editor persuaded them to simply divide any disputed passages between them. “In the book, each of these paragraphs is identified by a ‘J’ or an ‘R,’ and our marriage survived,” he wrote. Here is a partial list of books by Carter: “Keeping Faith: Memoirs of a President” “The Blood of Abraham: Insights into the Middle East” (With Rosalynn Carter) “Everything to Gain: Making the Most of the Rest of Your Life” “An Outdoor Journal: Adventures and Reflections” “Turning Point: A Candidate, a State, and a Nation Come of Age” “Always a Reckoning, and Other Poems” (With daughter Amy Carter) “The Little Baby Snoogle-Fleejer” “Living Faith” “The Virtues of Aging” “An Hour Before Daylight: Memories of a Rural Boyhood” “Christmas in Plains: Memories” “The Hornet’s Nest: A Novel of the Revolutionary War” “Our Endangered Values: America’s Moral Crisis” “Faith & Freedom: The Christian Challenge for the World” “Palestine: Peace Not Apartheid” “A Remarkable Mother” “Beyond the White House” “We Can Have Peace in the Holy Land: A Plan That Will Work” “White House Diary” “NIV Lessons from Life Bible: Personal Reflections with Jimmy Carter” “A Call to Action: Women, Religion, Violence, and Power” “A Full Life: Reflections at Ninety”Ravens QB Jackson leads first NFL Pro Bowl fan voting results

Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy was the sole “star campaigner’ from Telangana in a list of 40 such campaigners for the Congress in Maharashtra, but his claims of having implemented promises made to people in Telangana apparently failed to convince voters in Maharashtra, with the Congress performing pathetically in nine of 10 constituencies that Revanth Reddy campaigned in. Most strikingly, Revanth Reddy had held road shows and participated in public meetings in constituencies that have a substantial Telugu speaking population. These included Chandrapur, Solapur Central, Naigaon, Digras, Bhokar, Nagpur Central, Rajura, Wardha and Kadegaon, most of which were in close proximity with the Telangana border. In eight of these, the BJP was leading in seven, while the Shiv Sena was leading in one. Apparently, though the final results were yet to be announced officially, the trend reflected the complete lack of confidence among people on the words of Revanth Reddy and in the Congress party’s guarantees announced in Maharashtra. At Digras, even former AICC Telangana incharge Manikrao Thakare was also (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); trailing, indicating the impact of Chief Minister’s campaign. Political analysts pointed out that even as farmers were staging protests over the Telangana government’s failure in implementing the crop loan waiver, Revanth Reddy had claimed at a meeting in Rajura constituency that within 25 days of Congress government coming to power, Rs.18,000 crore was spent to waive loans of 22 lakh farmers. At Chandrapur, Revanth Reddy had told the voters that if they elected Congress candidate Pravin Padwekar from Chandrapur, they would have one brother to look after them in Chandrapur, and the second in Hyderabad. Padwekar, however, lost. Apart from his assurances on guarantees, the Chief Minister’s theory that it was only a battle between Congress and BJP, with there being no ‘regional parties’. That too apparently did not win the people’s confidence. Taking a dig at the Chief Minister, BRS leader Manne Krishank said on X: “Congress arrogant Chief Minister said there are no regional parties. Did the Congress score better than regional parties in Maharashtra?”LANDOVER, Md. (AP) — Jimmy Carter was honored with a moment of silence before the Atlanta Falcons’ game at the Washington Commanders on Sunday night, hours after the 39th president of the United States died at the age of 100 in Plains, Georgia. Beyond being a Georgia native who led the country from the White House less than 8 miles (12 kilometers) away during his time in office from 1977-81, Carter was the first president to host the NFL's Super Bowl champions there when he welcomed the Pittsburgh Steelers in 1980.

The problem wasn’t money for DemocratsDefeating cancer is an achievement, but the battle often doesn’t end with the last treatment session. For many survivors, life post-cancer presents a unique set of challenges that include physical, emotional, social, and financial domains. Fatigue, chronic pain, and hormonal imbalances are just a few of the side effects that can impact daily life. Emotionally, anxiety about recurrence and depression can take over moments of relief, while cognitive issues, often termed "chemo brain," add another layer of complexity. To start living their lives like before, they need support from their loved ones. We got in touch with Dr Swapnil Kapote, Consultant Surgical Oncologist at Jupiter Hospital, Thane, who explains the challenges cancer survivors face that may help you understand their situation better. 1. Physical Side Effects Cancer treatments, including surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation, can leave physical effects that may vary from person to person. - Fatigue: “One of the most common complaints I hear from survivors is fatigue,” says Dr Kapote. “It’s not just about feeling tired; it’s a pervasive exhaustion that can last months or even years after treatment.” He recommends a combination of gentle exercise, proper nutrition, and adequate rest to help combat this issue. - Pain: Chronic pain, often stemming from surgery, nerve damage, or radiation, can be debilitating. Dr Kapote stresses the importance of pain management programs, which may include medications, physical therapy, or alternative therapies like acupuncture. - Lymphedema: Swelling, particularly in the arms or legs, may occur following lymph node removal. “Patients should work closely with their care team to manage this condition through compression garments, exercises, or specialized therapy,” he advises. - Hormonal Changes: Treatments affecting the endocrine system can cause weight fluctuations, hot flashes, or sexual dysfunction. “These changes can impact quality of life significantly, and addressing them often requires a multidisciplinary approach,” Dr Kapote adds. - Organ Function: Heart, lung, kidney, or liver function can be affected by cancer therapies. Survivors require ongoing monitoring to identify and manage any complications early. 2. Psychological and Emotional Challenges The emotional impact of surviving cancer is profound. - Anxiety and "Scanxiety": Survivors often experience anxiety during follow-ups or scans, fearing a recurrence. “Psychological counselling and mindfulness practices can help mitigate these fears,” says Dr Kapote. - Depression: Adapting to life post-treatment can lead to depression, particularly if survivors grapple with physical changes or the emotional toll of their journey. Seeking professional mental health support is crucial. - Cognitive Issues: Many survivors report “chemo brain,” a term describing difficulties with memory, focus, and mental clarity. Dr Kapote shares cognitive rehabilitation programs as effective tools for recovery. 3. Social and Relationship Dynamics Cancer often redefines personal and professional relationships. - Survivors may feel isolated as loved ones struggle to understand their post-treatment challenges. “Open communication with family and friends is key,” says Dr Kapote. - Changes in family roles can create stress, especially for those who were primary caregivers or breadwinners. - Returning to work can be tough due to fatigue or cognitive difficulties. “Employers must provide support and accommodations to ease this transition,” he said. 4. Financial Stress Cancer’s financial toll persists long after treatment. - Ongoing medical expenses for follow-ups, medications, and side effect management can strain budgets. - Lost income during treatment exacerbates financial stress. “Survivors should explore financial assistance programs and consult with insurance advisors for support,” Dr Kapote suggests. 5. Long-Term Health Monitoring Regular follow-ups are critical to detect recurrences or secondary cancers early. - Survivors are also at increased risk for long-term health conditions like cardiovascular disease or osteoporosis due to treatment side effects. - Dr Kapote recommends creating a survivorship care plan that includes routine screenings, lifestyle changes, and access to supportive resources. 6. Adapting to a New Normal The post-treatment phase is about redefining life’s priorities and embracing new routines. - “Rehabilitation programs, counselling, and support groups can help survivors navigate this transition,” Dr Kapote explains. - Holistic practices like yoga, meditation, and mindfulness can also promote mental and physical well-being. Expert Advice for Survivors Dr Kapote encourages survivors to prioritize their health and seek support whenever needed. “Survivorship is a journey that demands patience and perseverance. Surround yourself with a strong support system, stay proactive about your health, and don’t hesitate to seek help from professionals or support groups,” he said.

The Department of Justice has taken a historic step against Google's monopoly in the online search market. Prosecutors have outlined a series of radical measures, including selling its Chrome browser and Android system, to foster competition. The landmark case in Washington could redefine how users access information. The proposed remedies target Google's exclusive agreements that favor its search engine, demanding an end to practices where Google pays billions to dominate default positions on devices. A court-appointed committee could see these measures implemented for a decade, ensuring competition and addressing what the DOJ calls an illegal monopoly. Google responded critically, with Chief Legal Officer Kent Walker labeling the plans as an overreach that risks harming various American stakeholders. Amidst a substantial drop in Google's shares, the future course of this case remains uncertain with potential interventions from the upcoming administration.
