John Cena to play 'substantial' role in Wrestlemania 36 - Report
'When do I walk away with a sense of mental and physical sanity?' Cena told Sunday Today. 'I'm right at that precipice.' 'I feel great, I'm in the best shape of my life,' he added. 'It's not that I couldn't continue, but I think from this point on I run the risk of tipping that balance the wrong way.' Cena and Randy Orton has been a part of some memorable matches in the history of WWE and in the last decade, the two well-known superstars were part of some extremely interesting feuds. However, it's been a year since Cena has competed in a match in WWE and although he was rumoured to take part in the Royal Rumble match this year, he was ruled out due to an ankle injury. As of now, it is not sure whether Cena will take part in Wrestlemania 36 or not but Orton has already extended a challenge for a match at the grand event. 'I'm on a flight to London and see this striking young man asking me a question. Why yes @johncena I am up for a challenge, are you? Let's say ohhhh I dunno, #Wrestlemania36 maybe? Or does Hollywood have you booked solid? #WM36,' Orton posted on his Instagram account on his way to England for upcoming events.

Low rates mean more babies
On average for the UK, a one-percentage-point decline in the policy rate increases birth rates by 2 per cent," they said in a paper published on Friday.In contrast with Britain, the birth rate in the US fell during the period studied by the researchers, something they linked to the prevalence of fixed-rate mortgages in the country and the impact of property price declines."Our descriptive comparisons with the US suggest that if more families had been able to obtain a lower interest rate, the US might not have experienced as severe of a 'baby bust' in the Great Recession," they said.

Keep marching
Even if voters knew somewhere in the back of their minds that it was too good to be true, in their hearts they wanted it to be. And let's be honest: even the most passionate of us Remainers had some hidden 'get Brexit done' corner in our souls.But now I answer Auden with a great saying from the leader of Poland's struggle for independence in the early 20th century, Józef Pilsudski: "to win and rest upon your laurels, that is defeat; to be defeated and not give up, that is victory."One of the many unpleasant experiences awaiting us in Britain over the next few months is to hear silver-tongued demagogues like Johnson and his close associate, Michael Gove, who have done more than anyone to tear this country apart, now smoothly repeating the mantra of 'bringing the country together'. Yet, the likely consequence of Brexit is not just that the United Kingdom will be weaker, poorer and less influential, but also that it will effectively cease to exist as a single state. That is the other clear signal from this election.Under Johnson's EU withdrawal deal, Northern Ireland will already be in a different economic and legal space from England, Scotland and Wales. Now Northern Ireland has, for the first time, elected more nationalist than unionist MPs. While it will probably remain constitutionally part of the UK for some time to come, since a formal break could return the province to bloodshed, in reality it will be ever more integrated with the rest of the island of Ireland.Scotland, meanwhile, has voted as emphatically for the Scottish National Party as England did for the Conservatives - and that on an explicit SNP commitment to a second Scottish referendum in which Nicola Sturgeon's party will argue for Scotland to leave the British union in order to rejoin the European one. As an Englishman, I want Scotland to stay with us, to enhance the strength, diversity and openness of the multinational nation that is Britain. There are also strong economic and prudential arguments for Scotland to stick with England. But if I were Scottish, I would now probably vote for independence, knowing that small countries generally do rather well inside the EU. If Johnson continues to deny the Scots the right to a second referendum, that will make them even more likely to vote for independence.That result would take us back to the 17th century, before the 1707 union with Scotland, and some would even say back to the 16th century, when only England and Wales were united under one sovereign. There is a huge irony here. Brexit, which has been fuelled at the top by English post-imperial delusions of grandeur, is the very thing that will probably end up demolishing even the original, smallest English empire, the one embracing these islands. Only Wales will be left to decide whether it wants to stay or go.All this will take years to unfold, and the final denouement is not inevitable. Maybe the Scots will, after all, stick with the devil they know. But it is not too soon for us liberals - in the broadest sense - to start fighting the battle of England. Brexit is at heart an English nationalist project. The flag of St George, the language, the mystique, the emotional appeal of England and Englishness have been misappropriated by nationalists and xenophobes, not to mention racists such as Tommy Robinson, formerly of the soi-disant English Defence League. But England is so much bigger and better than that. Even on its own, England would still be a fair-sized European country, with extraordinary strengths in creative industries, world-class media and universities, financial services, the cosmopolitan republic of greater London, sport, medical science and digital innovation. It has an exceptional, continuous history of 10 centuries as a nation with its own laws and traditions of self-government. It is also the country of John Milton, John Lilburne, John Stuart Mill, Charles Dickens and George Orwell: open-minded, bold, tolerant and big-hearted. For all the changes wrought by the centuries, we can still recognize the people described by Milton in 1644: "a nation not slow and dull, but of quick, ingenious and piercing spirit; acute to invent, subtle and sinewy to discourse, not beneath the reach of any point... that human capacity can soar to." Enriched and enlivened by decades of immigration, we are still that nation, for these characteristics are cultural, not predetermined by birth. Unfortunately, we are again, as Orwell wrote in 1941, a family with the wrong members in control. But still, a family.The battle to keep Britain in the EU is lost; the battle for a European England has only just begun. When we Remainers marched in our hundreds of thousands through the streets of London, bearing our improvised posters and European flags, we were not just defending British membership in a particular set of European institutions. We were also defending a certain idea of Britain and, within that, a certain idea of England: open, tolerant, internationalist, civic and civil, attentive to the social foundations of individual liberty and not just to its raw economic expression. These are values we share with millions of other Europeans. In this sense, we were also standing up for a European England. And we can do so still. In this hour of defeat, I feel impelled to say, with Orwell: I believe in England, and I believe that we shall go forward.The author is Professor of European Studies at Oxford University and a Senior Fellow at the Hoover Institution, Stanford University 1726970 DailyhuntDisclaimer: This story is auto-aggregated by a computer program and has not been created or edited by Dailyhunt.

Gene identified that influence memory recall
"We designed a memory test that can differentiate between not learning versus knowing but not being able to remember," said Prof Kida. Researchers tested the memories of young adult male and female mice. In the "learning," or training, phase of the memory tests, researchers allowed mice to explore a new object for a few minutes. Later, in the "recall" phase of the test, researchers observed how long the mice touched the object when it was reintroduced. Mice spend less time touching objects that they remember seeing previously. Researchers tested the mice's recall by reintroducing the same object at different times of the day. They did the same experiments with healthy mice and mice without BMAL1, a protein that regulates the expression of many other genes. BMAL1 normally fluctuates between low levels just before waking up and high levels before going to sleep. Healthy mice and mice without BMAL1 had the same pattern of results, but the mice without BMAL1 were even more forgetful just before they normally woke up. Researchers saw the same results when they tested mice on recognising an object or recognising another mouse. According to Prof Kida, the memory research community has previously suspected that the body's internal, or circadian, clock that is responsible for regulating sleep-wake cycles also affects learning and memory formation. Researchers have traced the role of BMAL1 in memory retrieval to a specific area of the brain called the hippocampus. Additionally, researchers connected normal BMAL1 to the activation of dopamine receptors and the modification of other small signalling molecules in the brain. "If we can identify ways to boost memory retrieval through this BMAL1 pathway, then we can think about applications to human diseases of memory deficit, like dementia and Alzheimer's disease," added Prof Kida. However, the purpose of having memory recall abilities that naturally fluctuate depending on the time of day remains a mystery. "We really want to know what is the evolutionary benefit of having naturally impaired memory recall at certain times of day," said Prof Kida. ...

With Turkey putting exports on hold, onion prices may rise again
As demand for imported onions increased, prices in the countries of origin also spiked, which saw these onions failing to make much impact in domestic markets. Traders said Turkey accounted for around 50 per cent of all imports, which landed in India. Suresh Deshmukh, a commission agent operating in Dindori's wholesale market in Nashik district, said the government of Turkey had banned exports as onion prices had sky-rocketed there. 'They have done what India did to control the domestic prices there,' he said. The central government had banned exports from India in September to control domestic prices. Not only onion, prices of potato and other veggies on rise This ban, Deshmukh and other traders said, might push the prices up in the near future, but a steep rise has been ruled out by many. Kunal Korpe, an onion trader operating out of Pune's wholesale market, said prices of imported onions have corrected from Rs 70-80 per kg to the present rate of Rs 50-60 per kg. 'This correction is mainly because of the higher demand for the local produce, whose arrivals have improved,' he said. Korpe foresaw another fall in prices of imported onions as around 4,500 tonnes are expected to arrive this Friday. The bulb, at present, is trading at around Rs 5,000 per quintal at most wholesale markets in Nashik, while retail prices continue to be around Rs 100 per kg. Meanwhile, rabi sowing across the country has seen a steep jump, which points to a bumper crop post March. Data by the Ministry of Agriculture shows that by the end of November, 2.78 lakh hectares of area had come under onion transplantation, as against the 2.31 lakh hectares of last season. Better prices have seen farmers going for onions over the rabi crop, but trade sources have pointed out that this will lead to prices collapsing once the crop hits the markets.

Rapper Juice WRLD passes away
Chicago police launched a death investigation after a 21-year-old male experiencing a 'medical emergency' was transported from Midway to an area hospital. Police said there were no signs of foul play and those aboard the aircraft were cooperating with authorities. Chicago Fire Department spokesman Larry Langford said the man experienced cardiac arrest and was taken to a hospital from a hangar operated by Atlantic Aviation at Midway, away from the main terminal, where private planes land. Atlantic didn't return a message Sunday. The rapper, who was named top new artist at the 2019 Billboard Music Awards in May, lived in the Chicago suburb of Homewood where he stood out as a musician early on. Juice WRLD turned 21 only days earlier. He was only two years out of high school. Like a good number of young hip-hop performers, Juice WRLD blended rapping and singing on his songs, sometimes mumbling words and focusing more on melody. His hit 'Lucid Dreams,' which heavily samples Sting's 1993 song 'Shape of My Heart,' was a six-times platinum success and reached No. 2 on the all-genre Hot 100 chart. It reached No. 1 on Billboard's Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs and Hot Rap Songs charts. 'I was very impressed by what he put on top of (my version),' Sting told The Associated Press this year. 'It's a really good song.' Juice WRLD got his start on the music sharing platform SoundCloud before signing to a record label and finding major success on streaming services. His major-label debut album, 'Goodbye & Good Riddance,' was a platinum success. It featured the hit 'All Girls Are the Same,' which gained platinum status, alongside seven more platinum hits including 'Armed & Dangerous,' 'Robbery,' 'Fine China' and 'Legends,' which features the lyrics: 'What's the 27 Club?/We ain't making it past 21.' He's had 10 songs reach gold status and also had success with 2018's 'Wrld on Drugs,' a collaborative album with rapper-singer-producer Future. His second album, 'Death Race for Love,' debuted on top of the Billboard charts this year and his most recent single, 'Bandit' with YoungBoy Never Broke Again, reached the Top 10 of the pop charts in October. Juice WRLD graduated in 2017 from Homewood-Flossmoor Community High School outside Chicago, where he gained a reputation as a talented musician among the nearly 3,000 students. School officials said Sunday that they would offer counseling services for students affected by his death. 'He is remembered by his teachers and staff as being a brilliant and creative student. Jared was extraordinarily talented in music and played many instruments,' said school spokeswoman Jodi Bryant. 'He was a caring and outgoing person who always tried to reach out to others while at the same time he was introspective and had a great sense of humor.'
