British tea plantations surfaced in the Cachar plains – the Barak Valley that now comprises the districts of Cachar, Hailakandi and Karimganj — during the mid-19th century and their expansion led to problems with the Mizos whose home was the Lushai Hills. Pegasus (a mythical winged divine horse)- Pegasus is a mythical winged divine horse, and one of the most recognized creatures in Greek mythology. Pegasus is a spyware developed by the Israeli cyber arms firm NSO Group that can be covertly installed on mobile phones (and other devices) running most versions of iOS and Android.

  • Proxima Mission Thomas Pesquet Reaches International Space Station
    Proxima mission Thomas Pesquet reaches International Space Station After completing 34 orbital revolutions of the Earth, the Soyuz spacecraft has docked with the International Space Station (ISS). France’s ESA astronaut Thomas Pesquet, mission commander Oleg Novitsky (Roscosmos) and U.S. astronaut Peggy Whitson (NASA) have safely entered the station and are now ready to start their six-month mission. Thomas Pesquet, 38, will be the 10th French astronaut to fly in space, the fourth to stay aboard the ISS and the first to spend six months there. His mission has been named Proxima after Proxima Centauri, the star nearest our Sun, continuing the tradition of naming European missions on the ISS after stars. Thomas will be in charge of more than 50 science experiments devised by ESA and CNES, and will be contributing to numerous research projects undertaken for other programme partners. CNES is closely involved in this mission, notably through the CADMOS centre for the development of microgravity applications and space operations, located at the Toulouse Space Centre. CADMOS will be controlling 21 of the 55 experiments to be performed by Thomas Pesquet for ESA and devised and prepared seven of the experiments itself: AQUAPAD, MATISS, EVERYWEAR, PERSPECTIVES, ECHO, FLUIDICS and EXO-ISS (educational experiments). After the successful docking and the crew’s entry aboard the ISS, CNES President Jean-Yves Le Gall commented: “What has been a truly golden week for us is continuing with this new and crucial stage of the Proxima mission! I would like to congratulate all of the international partners who played a part in this new success.

Dezember 2019 in der Kreissporthalle, Pommernstraße, Bad Camberg Nach der Ausrichtung des Länderspiels U19 im Jahre 2016 hat die Badmintonabteilung den Zuschlag für die Ausrichtung des Länderspiels der Kategorie A erhalten. Nach monatelangen Vorbereitungen haben wir nun den Endspurt angetreten. Nicht mehr lange, dann können wir in Bad Camberg Badminton auf höchstem Niveau sehen. Wir hoffen, dass viele von Euch den Abend mit uns verbringen und die tolle Atmosphäre in einer völlig umgestalteten Halle genießen. Um Euch Badminton etwas näher zu bringen, gib es erstmal ein wenig Hintergrundinformationen. Danach möchte wir Euch den Deutschen Kader der Nationalmannschaft sowie einige Spieler der niederländischen Nationalmannschaft vorstellen. Bis zum Redaktionsschluss stand die vollständige Aufstellung der Spieler noch nicht fest, so dass die Spannung, wer denn nun nach Camberg kommt, erhalten bleibt. Bundestrainer Poste zu dem Einsatz des Mannschafts-Vizeeuropameister Kai Schäfer: "Wir versuchen immer bei den Länderspielen auch nach regionalen Gesichtspunkten unsere Spieler zu nominieren. Der Einsatz von „local Heroes“ hat sich bisher immer gelohnt. Wir planen daher in Bad Camberg auch mit dem Einsatz von Kai Schäfer vom Bundesligisten Union Lüdinghausen. Er ist seit einigen Jahren einer unserer Spitzenspieler.“ Wir wünschen allen Karteninhaber und die es noch werden wollen, einen wundervollen, spannenden Abend. Badmintonkracher in Bad Camberg Am 3. Dezember ist es soweit: Um 18:45 Uhr kommt es zu einem wegweisenden Showdown im europäischen Badminton. Deutschland empfängt als amtierender Vizeeuropameister im Mixed- Team-Wettbewerb die Mannschaft der Niederlande, selbst drittplatzierter bei der EM im Frühjahr.
