Blondes don’t always have more fun. Just ask Harry Potter alum Evanna Lynch , who traded her signature bleach blonde hair for a spellbinding darker ‘do in a video shared on social media Dec. 4. In the clip, the actress—who played the Luna Lovegood in the movies based on J.K. Rowling ’s best-selling book series—styled her hair in a ponytail with her long bangs brushed to the side as she discussed her personal connection to the franchise, including naming her cats after some of the characters. “I had Harry, I had Dumbledore, I had Luna—but Luna deserted me,” she said in a TikTok video posted by Food Network . “She just got tired of us and left. We didn’t know where she went, and then it turned out she was living with the next door neighbor.” However, the dark locks aren’t exactly new, as the 33-year-old previously revealed the dye job in a 2023 photo on her since-deactivated Instagram page. “I do feel blonde suits me better,” Evanna wrote at the time, according to the Daily Mail , “but lately in all my dreams I was consistently sporting these glamorous shiny raven locks for some reason. I felt I was being stalked by my dark and shadowy twin so I had to become her!” Who else has pets named after Harry Potter characters like Evanna Lynch?! 👋 #WizardsOfBaking In the years since the Harry Potter film series came to an end in 2011, Evanna has continued to embrace her ties to the franchise. In fact, she reunited with costars Rupert Grint , Tom Felton and twins James Phelps and Oliver Phelps in 2019 for an event at The Wizarding World of Harry Potter theme park in Orlando, Fla., casting levitation spells with fans amid chants of “Wingardium Leviosa.” Keep reading to see what Evanna and the rest of the young stars of Harry Potter are up to now. The boy who played Harry Potter is ever grateful for the role that knocked down all the doors for him, but he's also been busy scrubbing any child-star residue from his acting image, starting with his raw, nudity-requiring Broadway debut in Equus in 2007. He followed that up with the more chipper How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying in 2011. For years he has alternated between theater ( The Cripple of Inishmaan , Rosencrantz and Gildenstern Are Dead ) and film ( The Woman in Black , Victor Frankenstein) , leaning heavily into the dramatic and/or the absurd. To be sure, if there's some dark humor to be found, Radcliffe is into it, whether on TV playing a morphine-addicted physician in A Young Doctor's Notebook or a low-level angel trying to prevent God from ending the world in Miracle Workers— or playing a flatulent corpse in 2016's Swiss Army Man . He was starring in Samuel Beckett 's Endgame at the Old Vic in London when live theater and everything else was shut down due to the coronavirus pandemic. Since then, he played the villain opposite Sandra Bullock and Channing Tatum in their 2022 rom-com The Lost City and portrayed musician "Weird Al" Yankovic in Weird: The Al Yankovic Story , a biographical parody film for The Roku Channel. Sober since 2010, Radcliffe has also been open about drinking to excess back when the Harry Potter franchise was nearing its finish and, already more famous than he ever dreamed, he was anxious about his next step in life. "In my case, the quickest way to forget about the fact that you're being watched is to get very drunk," he said on Off Camera With Sam Jones in 2019. "And then as you get very drunk, you become aware that, 'Oh, people are watching more now because now I'm getting very drunk, so I should probably drink more to ignore that more.'" Radcliffe has been in a relationship with actress Erin Darke since meeting her on the set of 2013's Kill Your Darlings , in which he played "Howl" poet Alan Ginsberg . In March, a rep for Radcliffe confirmed to E! News that the couple is expecting their first child. The Paris-born and Oxfordshire-raised kid had no more than a few school plays on her resume when she was cast as Hermione Granger, her first professional acting job. After completing the seven films, Watson split her time between college at Brown University (she graduated in 2014 with a degree in English literature) and starring in indie movies such as The Perks of Being a Wallflower and The Bling Ring . The latter of which saw her breaking out of her rule-abiding Hermione shell as part of a band of privileged but maladjusted young thieves who start stealing clothes, jewelry and cash from celebrity homes. While modeling for the likes of Burberry and Lancôme, Watson played Belle in the hit 2017 live-action remake of Beauty and the Beast and in 2019 was the more traditionally minded eldest March sister, Meg, in Greta Gerwig 's Little Women . She has also become an activist focused on gender inequality, launching the HeForShe campaign as a UN Women Goodwill Ambassador in 2014 and remaining an outspoken advocate for parity in the film industry and beyond. Past boyfriends have included Will Adamowicz , Matthew Janney, William "Mack" Knight and Leo Robinson , but these days she's happily coupled with Brandon Green . In May 2021, Watson addressed reports about her possible retirement from acting , tweeting, "Rumours about whether my career is 'dormant or not' are ways to create clicks each time they are revealed to be true or untrue." It was as if the redhead from Essex sprang from the earth ready to play Harry's best mate, Ron Weasley. Grint—whose first big post- Potter honor was being part of the Olympic Torch relay before the London Olympics in 2012, an "amazing" experience he said he'd cherish forever— has acted primarily in British productions. Most notably he starred in The ABC Murders on BBC One, based on the Agatha Christie mystery, and the Sky One dark comedy Sick Note , playing an average Joe whose life perks up after he's given a false-alarm cancer diagnosis but decides to let everyone continue to believe he's still sick. ( Lindsay Lohan was among his co-stars.) His movies have included CBGB , about the famed punk-rock club in New York, and the French comedy Moonwalkers . He currently stars on Apple TV+ in Servant , M. Night Shyamalan 's supernatural mystery series, which returned for a second season, and appeared in the writer and director's horror film Knock at the Cabin . "From the moment I got the part [of Ron], my life completely changed," Grint told Radio Times in 2018. "It was a weird time and it has taken me a long while to process. Just being invisible can still be difficult. Sometimes you just want to go to B&Q." He also said, "After Potter I didn't really know what I wanted to do. I had this feeling that I had missed out on normal things. I lost touch with a lot of my friends from school. I wanted to have a bit of a life again, so I took a break. I've never really been super-ambitious. I think there's always been something in me, particularly when I finished Potter, that wants to prove myself, but I'm also naturally quite an insecure person anyway." Whatever he was doing worked. Shyamalan told EW.com about Grint, "He came in and auditioned, and I just saw a different person. I don't know if I've ever seen this kind of reinvention from child actor to adult actor in my life, it's amazing." In May 2020, Grint and longtime girlfriend Georgia Groome welcomed their first child , daughter Wednesday G. Grint . Without a doubt, the erstwhile child actor who played the awkward Neville Longbottom has made the biggest splash in the then-and-now department, as news of Lewis' grown-up hotness has since traversed the globe. Lewis has primarily done stage and screen work in his native England, including the BBC One miniseries The Syndicate , the 2016 tear-jerker Me Before You and the 2018 revenge thriller Terminal with Margot Robbie . In 2015, he raved about the enjoyable time he was having playing a soldier in the BBC Three dramedy Bluestone 42 , about a bomb disposal squad in Afghanistan. "Potter was an amazing and a unique experience that I was privileged to have been a part of," Lewis told RadioTimes.com , "but I've never been as involved with or as proud of a project as I have with Bluestone 42 —I've had so much fun being a part of it, so much more than I've ever had before as an actor, definitely." On the Mantality podcast in January 2020, he said he'd been filming All Creatures Great and Small for Channel 5—an update of the classic BBC show that ran from 1978 to 1990 based on the books by James Herriot . The title might not mean a lot to some, Lewis noted, but it was "a bit of an institution" in Britain (and it's since come to Masterpiece on PBS). He's a private fellow, but we do know that he married Angela Jones in 2018 and that they made at stop at the Wizarding World of Harry Potter World—the very place where they first met—in October 2019. They live in Florida, where Jones is from. The nefarious Draco Malfoy (two consecutive MTV Movie Awards for Best Villain) was really a platinum-haired doll with a heart of gold in real life. In the summer of 2011 he was in Rise of the Planet of the Apes , but has since been in less CGI-heavy films, most notably the period dramas Belle and A United Kingdom . He blew fanboys-and-girls' minds showing up as Julian "Dr. Alchemy" Albert on the CW's The Flash in 2016. Additionally, Felton starred on the YouTube Premium sci-fi drama Origin and the films Ophelia , Braking for Whales and the World War II thriller Burial . Also a singer-songwriter, he has released several EPs over the years as well, and his Instagram , where he delightfully makes soup, plays guitar, hangs out with his dog and has the occasional Potter reunion , is one of the most joyful places on the Internet. Felton dated Jade Olivia Gordon —Draco's flash-forward wife, Astoria Malfoy—for seven years before their breakup in 2016. The actor released his memoir, Beyond the Wand: The Magic and Mayhem of Growing Up a Wizard , in 2022, opening up about his struggles with childhood fame, substance abuse issues and finally set the record straight about his relationship with Emma Watson . "I've always had a secret love for Emma, though not perhaps in the way that people might want to hear," he wrote. "That isn't to say there's never been a spark between us. There most definitely has, only at different times." While nothing romantic formed from that spark, they still have love for each other as friends. "I don't think I was ever in love with Emma," Felton explained, "but I loved and admired her as a person in a way that I could never explain to anybody else." The auburn-haired actress was barely 10 when she started playing Ginny Weasley, going from "Ron's little sister" to Harry Potter's soul mate over the course of the films. In 2011 Wright won the Most Edgy Look Award at the Rodial Beauty Awards and made her London Fashion Week debut walking the runway for London-based designer Katie Eary . Wright graduated from London College of Communication and formed her own production company, BonBonLumière, in 2012. In addition to acting in such non-Potter movies as After the Dark and Who Killed Nelson Nutmeg? , the artist and activist has written and directed her own short films, including Separate We Come, Separate We Go, starring David Thewlis ( the Remus Lupin); 2014's Know Thyself , with Christian Coulson , who played Tom Riddle; and Medusa's Ankles featuring Jason Isaacs , aka Lucius Malfoy. In 2021, Wright released her first book, Go Gently , which offered readers tips on how to become involved in the climate movement. In December 2019, Wright joined Watson, Felton, Lewis and Evanna Lynch for a reunion that, happily, someone thought to take a picture of. "Time turning," Wright captioned the pic , punctuating the sentiment with a lightning bolt. She was previously engaged to Sweeney Todd star Jamie Campbell Bower , who played a young Gellert Grindelwald in Harry Potter and the Death Hallows Part 1 , but they called it off in 2012. She then dated Simon Hammerstein for several years before finding love with Andrew Lococo in 2020. The pair got married in March 2022. In April 2023, Bonnie announced that she is pregnant with their first child. Not to take away Fred and George Weasley's individuality or anything... but Ron's twin older brothers and Hogwarts' resident pranksters were indeed played by actual twins (Oliver is 13 minutes older and has a mole on the right side of his neck). They have since played twins in other films, including Our Own Worst Enemy and Last Night in Soho , directed by Edgar Wright , while James has done more acting on his own. Another way to tell them apart: Oliver has been married to Katie Humpage since 2015 and they have two daughters, while James exchanged vows with Annika Ostle the following year. The brothers remain as close as ever, hosting a podcast together called Normal Not Normal and have interviewed former co-stars such as Evanna Lynch, Katie Leung and Alfred Enoch . The British actor started out in the Hogwarts student ensemble as fellow Gryffindor Dean Thomas and, after doing a slew of theater in England and popping up in the likes of Broadchurch and Sherlock , starred on four seasons of How to Get Away With Murder . There he played the well-intentioned but inevitably morally compromised and doomed law student Wes, though he returned for a cameo as—SPOILER ALERT—Wes' own son in the mindboggling final season in 2020. He has since appeared in Apple TV+'s Foundation and he is also a graduate of The Queen's College, Oxford. Chris Columbus was looking for a 15-to-17-year-old to play the specter of 16-year-old Tom Riddle in Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets , but the 23-year-old Coulson won the part anyway. He's been working in film and TV ever since, most notably playing Damien George on Nashville , Sebastian in the Golden Globe-winning Amazon Prime series Mozart in the Jungle and Benjamin on High Fidelity , the Hulu reboot of the book-turned-movie starring Zoë Kravitz as the lovelorn, list-making record store owner, now set in Brooklyn. After beating out roughly 3,000 other aspirants to play Harry's Goblet of Fire -era crush, Cho Chang, the classically trained Scottish actress did theater and TV on her side of the pond, including the series White Dragon and Chimerica . Most recently she appeared in the BBC One limited series The Nest . On the big screen, she played the daughter of Jackie Chan 's character (whose death in a terrorist bombing he spends the movie avenging) in the 2017 action-thriller The Foreigner . She currently stars on the Amazon Prime TV series The Peripheral , which was recently renewed for a second season. Leung revealed in a December 2022 Instagram post that she had welcomed her first child, a son named Wolf . In March 2021, Leung, who is of Chinese descent, opened up about the hate she received online after her casting was announced . "I was like, Googling myself at one point and I was on this website which was dedicated to kind of Harry Potter fandom and I remember reading all the comments. It was a lot of racist s--t," Leung said on the Chinese Chippy Girl podcast. "And then somebody had actually created a website, a hate site—it was like, if you disagree with this casting, then click on this button and then it would just be like a count of how many people disagreed with the casting and you would just see a number...I know, it's awful. It's so awful." Gosh, whatever happened to the lad who played ill-fated heartthrob Cedric Diggory in Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire ... Oh, right: Pattinson landed the lead in the other major YA franchise roiling hearts and minds, The Twilight Saga , and played brooding vampire Edward Cullen in five films, dating co-star Kristen Stewart along the way. Since then he has distinguished himself in the acting department with gritty turns in independent films like Maps to the Stars , Cosmopolis , The Rover , Good Time and The Lighthouse. But he returned to big budget blockbusters when he donned the iconic cape and scowl as the titular DC superhero in 2022's The Batman . Previously engaged to FKA twigs , Pattinson has been dating model and actress Suki Waterhouse since 2018. The statuesque Fleur Delacour from Beauxbatons Academy in France, chosen to represent her school in the Triwizard Tournament, eventually marries Ron's groovy big brother Bill. Since then Poésy has worked steadily in film and TV, most prominently on Gossip Girl, the dark comedy In Bruges , the English and French crime series The Tunnel and in Genius: Picasso on National Geographic Channel. The French actress appeared in Christopher Nolan 's Tenant opposite her former Triwizard Tournament opponent, Robert Pattinson, and the Apple TV+ series The Essex Serpent . She will next star in The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon , the highly anticipated spinoff centering on Norman Reedus ' beloved titular character from the zombie franchise. Poésy has a son, Liam , who was born in 2017, and welcomed a second child in 2019. "I was thinking today how much it's made me closer to women, somehow; closer to women in the centuries before, the whole clinical aspect of being pregnant and then becoming a mum and giving birth, it makes you think a lot," she told The Guardian at the time. "It's made my admiration for women even stronger." The angelic-looking actress stole her scenes as the scatterbrained but heroic Luna Lovegood starting in Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix —but she admitted that she struggled to get acting work after being part of the iconic franchise. "It was just weird because we were getting all this fan mail and all this attention," Lynch told Bustle in 2019. "But I found in the real world that wasn't reflected. And it was hard. I think for a while I really missed the validation of being in a giant film series where anything you did was just admired and gushed over. A vegan herself since 2015, Lynch started a clean, cruelty-free beauty line, Kinder Beauty Box, in 2018, and co-hosts a podcast, Just Beings , with Dr. Melanie Joy. She came in third place on Dancing With the Stars in 2018 and she released her first book, The Opposite of Butterfly Hunting , in 2021. She told Bustle that she remained especially close to Katie Leung and Scarlett Byrne (Pansy Parkington)—they were planning to go to a New Year's Eve party together to ring in 2020—and saw a lot of her former co-stars at conventions. "I think a lot of us have bonded more since the films," Lynch said. "Just because we're older and we're adults now. Say, for example, I hung out with the twins this weekend, James and Oliver [Phelps]. And I didn't talk to them much on the films because when you're 14 and whatever, they're 18 or 19, it seems like such a giant age gap. When you're adults it doesn't seem that much." Draco's henchman Goyle also cleaned up his act since his Slytherin days, most recently appearing in the British crime drama Marcella with Anna Friel , the 2018 big-screen update of Robin Hood , the crime miniseries Murder at White House Farm and the spy drama Alex Rider . In 2016, he began his MMA career, though he recently had a small role in Disney+'s Andor . Herdman is also dad to a son, Morgan , with longtime partner Jessica Worth . Like most of the Harry Potter bullies, even Dudley Dursley was a perfectly nice bloke in real life. Mid-franchise, Melling started a workout regimen and got into such good shape he was almost recast before Deathly Hallows Part 1 , but was able to stay on as Harry's portly spoiled cousin by wearing prosthetics. Though fairly unrecognizable from those days, Melling has worked consistently on stage and screen ever since, including roles in The Lost City of Z , the Coen brothers' The Ballad of Buster Scruggs and the HBO series His Dark Materials . More recently, Melling reteamed with Joel Coen to play Malcolm in the director's take on The Tragedy of Macbeth , with Denzel Washington and Frances McDormand as the murderously ambitious main duo. Melling also appeared as Harry Beltik in the hit Netflix series The Queen's Gambit and co-starred opposite Charlize Theron in the streaming giant's action flick The Old Guard. And last year, he earned rave reviews for his turn as a young Edgar Allan Poe in The Pale Blue Eye .dewabet slot 。

Minister for Communications and Information Technology, Prithvi Subba Gurung, has said that the government would not let anyone off named in the report of the Parliamentary Investigation Committee on Cooperative Fraud. Addressing the Tamu Journalism Award Distribution and Launching of the Gurung News.com Year Book Programme organized by Tamu (Gurung) Mediapersons' Association Nepal here today, Minister Gurung, who is also the government spokesman, expressed the government's determination to bring to justice anyone implicated in the cooperative fund misappropriation as per the report prepared by the Parliamentary Investigation Committee under lawmaker Surya Thapa's leadership. He said that no one was above the law and made it clear anybody whether they are the leaders or cadres of the Nepali Congress, the UML, Maoist or any other party would be brought to justice. Stating that all those named by lawmaker Thapa's report cannot be brought to justice simultaneously together now, Minister Gurung said, "We will not let off any one and take action against them turn by turn. Let those involved in cooperative fraud never think that they can escape the law. All will be arrested as per the law." He termed as unconstitutional the protest demonstration aimed at freeing Rabi Lamichhane, the President of Rastriya Swotantra Party (RSP), who is in police custody in connection with investigation process on the charge of cooperative fraud. The government spokesman also expressed his objection over such acts which according to him are carried out with the objective of influencing the case which is being considered by the court, calling attention of the sides concerned not to carry out activities that are against the democratic conduct and process. "It is the RSP's responsibility to cooperate in the investigation process against its leader. It is not at all appropriate to seek to influence the investigation process by organizing sit-in and protest demos, until the Respected Court gives its verdict. I urge RSP to stand on the side of the rule of law and the due process, rather than the undemocratic acts," Minister Gurung reiterated.Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs’ third bid to be released on bail won’t be decided until next week

Another Voice: Indigenous people violated again with STAMP siteCommittees are a vital part of the American lawmaking process because they allow a small group of senators to work together to craft, revise and debate proposed new laws before the full chamber makes final revisions and decides whether to advance the legislation. Senate committees also assess the credentials of the president's nominees to lead federal agencies or sit on federal courts, and through their questioning may determine whether the full Senate ultimately advises and consents to the nominee's appointment. Beginning Jan. 3, two-term U.S. Sen. Todd Young, R-Ind., will sit on the 17-member Senate Select Committee on Intelligence. The Intelligence Committee is tasked with overseeing the intelligence activities and programs of the United States and providing vigilant legislative oversight to ensure those activities conform to the U.S. Constitution. "As a former U.S. Marine Corps intelligence officer, I have a deep appreciation for our dedicated intelligence professionals and the importance of unbiased intelligence to our national security. I look forward to working with my colleagues on the committee to ensure policymakers are receiving the best intelligence possible as they make critical decisions," Young said. Listen now and subscribe: Apple Podcasts | Spotify | RSS Feed | SoundStack | All Of Our Podcasts Two of Young's recent predecessors, former U.S. Sen. Dan Coats, R-Ind., and former U.S. Sen.

Coats later was U.S. Director of National Intelligence from 2017 to 2019, while Bayh currently is a member of the President's Intelligence Advisory Board. In addition to his new seat on the Intelligence Committee, Young will remain a member of the a member of the tax-writing Senate Committee on Finance; the Senate Committee on Commerce, Science and Transportation; and the Senate Committee on Small Business and Entrepreneurship. "I'm honored to continue my work on these committees to tackle the issues most important to Hoosiers, including stimulating economic growth, reducing costs for families and ensuring America maintains global leadership in technology," Young said. Meanwhile, U.S. Sen.-elect Jim Banks, R-Ind., has been assigned to the Senate Committee on Armed Services; the Senate Committee on Banking, Housing and Urban Affairs; the Senate Committee on Health, Education, Labor and Pensions; and the Senate Committee on Veterans' Affairs — mirroring some of the work Banks did during his four terms in the U.S. House. "Since my first day in Congress, strengthening our national defense and taking care of our nation’s veterans have been two of my top priorities and I am grateful to continue that work in the United States Senate," Banks said. "I look forward to working with President Trump on these important issues and that starts with confirming his cabinet secretaries right away. I'm honored to be a voice for the hundreds of thousands Hoosier veterans and service members and I will always fight for Indiana first."

ENGLEWOOD, Colo. — John Elway says any remorse over bypassing Josh Allen in the 2018 NFL draft is quickly dissipating with rookie Bo Nix's rapid rise, suggesting the Denver Broncos have finally found their next franchise quarterback. Elway said Nix, the sixth passer selected in April's draft, is an ideal fit in Denver with coach Sean Payton navigating his transition to the pros and Vance Joseph's defense serving as a pressure release valve for the former Oregon QB. "We've seen the progression of Bo in continuing to get better and better each week and Sean giving him more each week and trusting him more and more to where last week we saw his best game of the year," Elway said in a nod to Nix's first game with 300 yards and four touchdown throws in a rout of Atlanta. For that performance, Nix earned his second straight NFL Rookie of the Week honor along with the AFC Offensive Player of the Week award. "I think the sky's the limit," Elway said, "and that's just going to continue to get better and better." In a wide-ranging interview with The Associated Press, Elway also touted former coach Mike Shanahan's Hall of Fame credentials, spoke about the future of University of Colorado star and Heisman favorite Travis Hunter and discussed his ongoing bout with a chronic hand condition. Elway spent the last half of his decade as the Broncos' GM in a futile search for a worthy successor to Peyton Manning, a pursuit that continued as he transitioned into a two-year consultant role that ended after the 2022 season. "You have all these young quarterbacks and you look at the ones that make it and the ones that don't and it's so important to have the right system and a coach that really knows how to tutelage quarterbacks, and Sean's really good at that," Elway said. "I think the combination of Bo's maturity, having started 61 games in college, his athletic ability and his knowledge of the game has been such a tremendous help for him,'" Elway added. "But also Vance Joseph's done a heck of a job on the defensive side to where all that pressure's not being put on Bo and the offense to score all the time." Payton and his staff have methodically expanded Nix's repertoire and incorporated his speed into their blueprints. Elway lauded them for "what they're doing offensively and how they're breaking Bo into the NFL because it's a huge jump and I think patience is something that goes a long way in the NFL when it comes down to quarterbacks." Elway said he hopes to sit down with Nix at some point when things slow down for the rookie. Nix, whose six wins are one more than Elway had as a rookie, said he looks forward to meeting the man who won two Super Bowls during his Hall of Fame playing career and another from the front office. "He's a legend not only here for this organization, but for the entire NFL," Nix said, adding, "most guys, they would love to have a chat with John Elway, just pick his brain. It's just awesome that I'm even in that situation." Orange Crush linebacker Randy Gradishar joined Elway in the Pro Football Hall of Fame this year, something Elway called "way, way overdue." Elway suggested it's also long past time for the Hall to honor Shanahan, who won back-to-back Super Bowls in Denver with Elway at QB and whose footprint you see every weekend in the NFL because of his expansive coaching tree. Elway called University of Colorado stars Travis Hunter and Shedeur Sanders "both great athletes." He said he really hopes Sanders gets drafted by a team that will bring him along like the Broncos have done with Nix, and he sees Hunter being able to play both ways in the pros — but not full time. Elway said he thinks Hunter will be primarily a corner in the NFL but with significant contributions on offense: "He's great at both. He's got great instincts, and that's what you need at corner." It's been five years since Elway announced he was dealing with Dupuytren's contracture, a chronic condition that typically appears after age 40 and causes one or more fingers to permanently bend toward the palm. Elway's ring fingers on both hands were originally affected and he said now the middle finger on his right hand is starting to pull forward. So, he'll get another injection of a drug called Xiaflex, which is the only FDA-approved non-surgical treatment, one that he's endorsing in an awareness campaign for the chronic condition that affects 17 million Americans. The condition can make it difficult to do everyday tasks such as shaking hands or picking up a coffee mug. Elway said what bothered him most was "I couldn't pick up a football and I could not imagine not being able to put my hand around a football." Get local news delivered to your inbox!

The Harrier EV is slated for launch before the end of this fiscal year, marking a significant addition to Tata’s electric vehicle lineup Tata Motors confirmed a while ago that the Harrier EV will be launched in India before the current financial year ends. Meanwhile, the Sierra EV and the Avinya are slated for release in the following fiscal year, although their exact launch timelines remain under wraps. It is expected that the internal combustion engine version of the Sierra will debut shortly after the electric variant’s introduction. The Sierra ICE could make its debut as early as H2 2025. Tata might adopt a strategy similar to the Curvv lineup where the EV version hit the market first, followed by the ICE variant. While official specifications remain undisclosed, the Sierra ICE is likely to feature the familiar 2.0L four-cylinder diesel engine that powers the Harrier and Safari. The turbo diesel mill delivers 170 PS of maximum power and 350 Nm of peak torque, mated to either a six-speed manual or a six-speed torque converter automatic transmission. Additionally, Tata Motors might offer the new 1.5L TGDi turbocharged petrol engine as an option. The possibility of a 4×4 configuration cannot be ruled out, adding to the Sierra ICE’s versatility and appeal. Also Read: Updated Tata Tiago & Tigor To Launch At Auto Expo 2025 The next-gen Sierra has been showcased on several occasions with the production version staying true to the concept’s design cues. Meanwhile, the Harrier EV made its conceptual debut at the 2023 Auto Expo, followed by the near-production version’s reveal at the Bharat Mobility Global Expo 2024. The Harrier EV will offer single and dual electric motor configurations, providing a 4WD setup that enhances its off-roading potential. Furthermore, the upcoming zero-emission models will deliver a driving range of over 500 km on a single charge. Strengthening its EV portfolio, Tata Motors entered into a MoU with Jaguar Land Rover in late 2023. This collaboration allows Tata to leverage JLR’s Electrified Modular Architecture platform, encompassing advanced electrical systems, e-drive units, battery technologies, and manufacturing expertise.

The winger scored and provided an assisted in a 5-1 victory away to Southampton on Wednesday night. However, his work-ethic was questioned by the Blues boss after the match. Madueke teed up Christopher Nkunku to re-establish the visitors' lead after Joe Aribo cancelled out Axel Disasi's opener. The England international then added a goal of his own to double their lead before half time. He was hauled off in the 72nd minute, though, before Cole Palmer and his replacement Jadon Sancho added further gloss to the scoreline. Maresca was not entirely satisfied with the 22-year-old's performance. Speaking after the win, the Italian explained: "Noni can do much more. When he scores and assists and is happy, he starts to drop a little bit. "The reason he was not playing is because of the way he was training. "When he scores one, he needs to keep trying to score and assist. Noni needs to understand he has to work more and he can be much, much, much better." Madueke's exploits at St. Mary's have taken his tally for the season to five goals and two assists in 13 Premier League appearances. It comes after he also turned provider in the win over Aston Villa on Sunday. Following a second victory in four days, Madueke told talkSPORT's Ian Abrahams: "I could have scored a hat-trick today, quite easily. "But a goal and an assist is okay, I'll take that. I'll go into the next game and try and help my team." As for playing under Maresca, he added: "He's been great for me. "Not just in terms of the things I like to do, in quotation marks, score goals and beat players, but even in the less pretty parts of football, the defensive part, being reliable. "He's helped me a lot with that, so yes, credit to him." Wednesday's win saw Maresca's side cut the gap to leaders Liverpool down to seven points after the Reds were held to a 3-3 draw at Newcastle.

Roquan Smith missed practice again Friday because of a hamstring injury. Although the Ravens didn't officially rule him or anyone else out — they don't play until Monday night — the All-Pro linebacker's status seems dicey. “Definitely it will be a challenge if Roquan can’t go,” defensive coordinator Zach Orr said. “We’re holding out hope and everything like that. I think it’ll just be by committee. Not one person is going to replace Roquan. Roquan’s an every-down linebacker.” Although the Ravens lost 18-16 last weekend, Baltimore didn't allow a touchdown. That was an encouraging sign for a team that ranks 26th in the league in total defense. Baltimore is on the road Monday against the Los Angeles Chargers. The Ravens appear to have dodged one potential nightmare. Star safety Kyle Hamilton injured an ankle against Cincinnati on Nov. 7, but he was able to play almost every defensive snap the following week against Pittsburgh. But Smith was injured in that game and didn't practice Thursday or Friday. Linebacker Malik Harrison had a season high in tackles last weekend and figures to have a significant role if Smith can't go. “We tell these guys, ‘You’re one play away to going in there — you never know, so you got to stay ready.’ Malik — he was ready,” Orr said. “I thought he went in there and did a good job, especially after the first series, he settled down. That’s what we expect from him.” It's hard to tell whether last week can be a significant turning point for Baltimore's defense. The Ravens allowed only 10 points in a dominant win over Buffalo in Week 4, then yielded 38 against Cincinnati the following game. After allowing 10 against Denver, the Ravens were picked apart by the Bengals again a few days later. So they still haven't shown they can play a good game defensively and then build on it. “I think it’s easier said than done. It’s something that we kind of got caught up saying against Buffalo and then coming up the next week and not doing," Hamilton said. "We’re aware of it now and know that we played a good game, but I think we can get a lot better, and I think that’s kind of the mindset everybody on defense has right now.” Hamilton's ability to make a difference all over the field is part of what makes him valuable, but positioning him deep is one way the Ravens can try to guard against big passing plays. Pittsburgh's Russell Wilson threw for only 205 yards against Baltimore. That's after Joe Burrow passed for 428 and four touchdowns in the Ravens' previous game. “I’ve always seen myself as a safety. A versatile one, but at the end of the day, I think I play safety,” Hamilton said. “If I’m asked to go play safety, I feel like that’s not an issue for me to play safety if I’m a safety.” NOTES: In addition to Smith, WR Rashod Bateman (knee), DT Travis Jones (ankle), S Sanoussi Kane (ankle) C Tyler Linderbaum (back) and CB Arthur Maulet (calf) missed practice Friday. WR Nelson Agholor (illness) returned to full participation after missing Thursday's practice.
