Luke Humphries has revealed that he came close to pulling out of the Grand Slam of Darts due to a severe back and shoulder problem — but managed to push through the pain to reach the quarter-finals. The world No. 1 said he woke up on Wednesday barely able to lift his head off the pillow because of what he believed was a back spasm. “For about 15 minutes, I couldn’t pick my head up,” he told Sky Sports. “I honestly thought I’d have to withdraw today — my back and shoulder were in terrible shape.” Humphries credited his physio,…

ADDIS ABABA, Nov 12 — Ethiopia has been selected to host the United Nations COP32 Climate Summit in 2027, winning the bid over Nigeria after securing the backing of African nations. Richard Muyungi, Chair of the African Group of Negotiators (AGN), confirmed the decision, saying the group had endorsed Ethiopia during a meeting last week. “The AGN has endorsed Ethiopia,” Muyungi told AFP, noting that the decision followed regional consultations among member states.

LONDON, Nov 12 — The International Energy Agency’s (IEA) latest World Energy Outlook delivers a sharp shift in tone, projecting that global oil demand could continue climbing through 2050 — a stark contrast to its earlier forecasts and a reminder of the enduring dominance of fossil fuels in the world economy. Traditionally a routine publication, this year’s report has sparked political debate after U.S. President Donald Trump’s administration accused the Paris-based agency of bias for previously suggesting oil demand might peak by 2030. U.S. Energy Secretary Chris Wright dismissed those earlier projections as “nonsensical.” In a notable revision, the 2025…

Despite his privileged upbringing—or perhaps because of it—Zohran Mamdani, the son of a Columbia University professor and a celebrated filmmaker, has built his political identity around democratic socialism and the idea of redistributing New York’s wealth. At a Harlem panel earlier this year, Mamdani discussed a proposal to revoke tax breaks for Columbia University and redirect the revenue to the city’s public university system. “Columbia was our first landlord,” he told the audience, referencing his childhood in university-owned housing. His father, still a Columbia professor, continues to teach there. Now 34, Mamdani distances himself from the elite institutions that shaped…

From an AI-fueled stock rally to record-high gold prices, the warning lights are flashing across nearly every major asset class. The question now isn’t whether markets are overheated — it’s how far the heat spreads when they finally cool. Asset bubbles have a distinct scent. Stocks surge far beyond their earnings. Risky debt starts to look like a sure thing. For a while, it feels like gravity no longer applies — until skepticism creeps in. The only question is whether that faint alarm we hear is a dead battery or a real fire. The S&P 500 now hovers around 6,700,…

What makes Singapore’s governance model so admired is not just its remarkable economic success, but the strong ethical and institutional foundations on which that success was built.
